00:00:00 --> 00:00:01
			Hadith says, and it comes to my mind
		
00:00:01 --> 00:00:02
			now,
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:04
			Quran on the day of Qiyamah,
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:07
			a person who's made an effort to memorize
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:09
			and put into practice part of the Quran,
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:11
			if not all of it, it will be
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:12
			said to him,
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			Do you know what that means? Amazing. It
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:22
			says, the person will be told on the
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:24
			day of judgment, read,
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:26
			recite as you used to in the dunya.
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:29
			That's why I told you read melodiously in
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:30
			the dunya, please. Because if you get to
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:32
			the and you are one of those who
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:35
			who just used to say in salah, then
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:36
			you will be from amongst the
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:37
			You know what that means?
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:40
			There is an imam, they call him Sheik
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:40
			Farari.
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43
			Why Farari? Because not because he comes from
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:44
			Harari, no.
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:47
			But because he reads so quick in Tarawee.
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:49
			Some people have a disease. They want They
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			follow the masajid which are fast. Hey, that
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			one finishes at 12 minutes past 9. No.
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:55
			This one's 10 past 9. Hey. This one's
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:56
			8 minutes past.
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:58
			Is that how you're teaching the Quran?
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			The people who look at the clock are
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:04
			far away from the Quran. They are far
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:05
			away from Allah. You need to look at
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:07
			the quality, the raha. This is the word
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:10
			of Allah. How dare? How dare you want
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			to look at the clock? Allahu Akbar. May
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:14
			Allah forgive us. So this man, you only
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			hear him, he says Allahu Akbar. You hear
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:18
			him say that. And after all,
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			That's the only thing you hear is so
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24
			I say, He
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:27
			is He's from amongst those who are astray.
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:29
			What is the meaning of It's the only
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31
			word I heard. It means astray. So he's
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			astray. Allahu Akbar.
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:36
			May Allah forgive us. The Quran, if you
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:37
			read it melodiously,
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:40
			beautifully in the dunya, you will only be
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			able to read on the day of judgement
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:44
			how you used to read whilst you were
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:45
			in the world.
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:48
			Read how you used to read in the
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			dunya.
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			You keep on going up as you read.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:57
			One verse, one level. 2nd verse, next level.
		
00:01:57 --> 00:01:59
			3rd verse, next. And you keep on going
		
00:01:59 --> 00:01:59
			up.
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:03
			And your final abode, your final status and
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:06
			place will be upon the last verse that
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:07
			you get to.
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:09
			So now if you look at the explanation
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:12
			of that, it's quite deep, where it's not
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:14
			only my memorization was strong and solid. What's
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			the point of having I don't make any
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:17
			mistakes in the whole Quran, cover to cover,
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:20
			but you're not practicing upon it, you know.
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:21
			So when it comes to what in the
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:23
			first Surah Baqarah, it says,
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:29
			neither did we do ruku nor did we
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:30
			do salah, so we will get stuck at
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:31
			that verse
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:34
			Stuck. Why? Because you didn't practice upon this
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:35
			verse, it's right at the beginning.
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			Allahu Akbar, may Allah make it easy for
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:40
			us. This is the Quran, beautiful words of
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:41
			Allah
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:45
			So you find topics changing as the rhythm
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:47
			changes, but here we are, we don't even
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:49
			know that, we haven't even made an effort,
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:51
			we don't even know what's going on. I
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:52
			hope and I pray we can change them.
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:54
			And these these few words, I hope that
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:56
			they are words of motivation for you and
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:57
			I.
