And we don't realize the gift of Allah,
so use your eyes in a way that
will result in you entering paradise. When you've
lowered your gaze for the sake of Allah,
you deserve something in that sight. Payment is
coming.
When you swallowed your anger,
payment is coming. It's coming. Sometimes you are
told, Ichta min ayeelhuisha.
It's an hadith. You choose whichever hoo you
would like, you know. Subhanallah.
May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala grant it to
us. May He open our doors.
So
when Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala in the Quran
describes
the something important. Every time we hear we
say,
I'm sure the word Tajiri is always there.
You know, the little children they ask me
sometimes, what's the meaning of Tajiri? Is Tajiri
going to be in Jannah? And you start
saying, no, Tajiri means that which is flowing.
But that the Arabic language has mentioned after
the term flowing, what is going to be
flowing. So what will be flowing?
Beneath this garden, there will be flowing rivers.
But rivers of what? So these rivers will
be everlasting, they never run dry,
they are at a distance that you would
like. Now, how is my garden going to
be? Only Allah knows.
But what I do know is if I
want to see that river flowing,
I will be able to see it.
Who does it belong to? Me. How long
is it? The least would be 2000 years.
Remember we are using time to describe distance.
The least
of my river. And what's the river? So
Allah describes river of pure honey. Imagine.
Why pure honey? Do you know 90% of
the honey in the market is not pure?
Do you know that?
Everyone is looking at me. Believe me, 90%
of the honey,
that's available, you you know, in the stores
is not actually pure honey. Even though they
write 100%
pure.
It's not actually pure. Pure honey is something
else. Subhan'Allah.
Pure honey is extremely expensive, and there is
a big shortage of it on the globe.
They cannot make ends meet. So this is
why they have a specific way of, you
know, this farming, honey farming
where half of it is actually sugar. Allahu
Akbar. Allah protect us.
Imagine we're saying Allah protect us from sugar.
What that means is Allah protect us from
the deception. There's a lot of deception going
on. Jannah, the Quran says, pure honey, not
honey honey that's found down the road. No.
Pure honey.
And what is it? A river.
So the benefits of pure honey in the
dunya, it is something that will be found
in the purest of its form in paradise.
I cannot describe the purest form for you,
but Allah has sent it down to us
through
the bee in order for it to be
a shifa for me and you. The Quran
says that. But in its form, in the
duniya way form, in the form that is
made specially for this world, you know, it's
like the speck.
We, in my part of the world, we
are allowed to import motor vehicles directly from
Japan.
And what happens is, when you want to
order cars, vehicles, they tell you this spec
is only for Japan. Wow. What a beautiful
vehicle. So beautiful. It's only for Japan. You
don't get it anywhere else. It's a top
speck and if you were to see in
a country like this, that speck doesn't even
exist here. Why am I saying this? Because
man always needs examples to understand, you know.
So although we are using a far lower
example for something far higher, but just to
bring it closer to the mind. If I
were to tell you honey in the dunya,
do not think it's going to be the
same speck of honey in the akhir.
Don't. It's a totally different speck. You don't
get it here. You won't know about it.
You need to get there first, and then
inshallah, you'll see what it's talking about. The
same applies to milk that doesn't go bad.
Neither does the color change nor does the
smell change nor does the taste change. SubhanAllah.
Milk.
A river of milk. Imagine white. Today, you
have the Thames down the road. SubhanAllah.
As dirty as it is, nobody will take
a cup and put it in a drink
to say the Thames I've drank the water
of the dream.
Nobody would do that.
Nobody. Because we know that the minute there
is a little bit of pollution this way,
that way, the water needs purification
before you drink it. There, the honey don't
need no purification.
The milk don't need no purification
neither does it need pasteurization,
homogenization,
whatever else the honey is go meaning the
the,
milk goes through, it doesn't need any of
that. It's yours. It's as pure, and it
has the benefits that you would like it
to have. And it will quench you, and
at the same time as much as you
drink, you will feel quenched. And when you
want more, you will still feel like you
need more, and you continue drinking as you
wish, how you wish. And don't worry, you
will never have too much of the dairy
product.
Because
the beauty of it, it's not going to
be the milk of a cow.
It is the milk of Jannah. Like we
said, the honey is not the honey of
a bee. It is the honey of Jannah.
How Allah has it there? He knows. If
he has chosen a method, he knows. Whatever
he's described to us, we stop there. We
don't need to add or subtract. So we
say, there will be honey of its own
nature. There will be milk of its own
nature. Subhanallah.
There will be water. Subhanallah.
Water also that is so pure it can
be drunk immediately.
And at the same time it has the
benefits
of quenching,
the benefits of
a taste that is unique
and on top of that there will be
flowing rivers
of what is termed as Khamrim
Khamrin let that
The mufassilien say here the term does not
refer to the blocking of the brain.
Normally, the term refers to that which intoxicates,
but there, there is no intoxication
in that. It is pure pure, completely pure.
How? Well, let's get there inshallah, we will
find out.
