00:00:01 --> 00:00:03
			Somebody's mental body Obamacare
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:08
			inshallah will commence with a short presentation
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:14
			and I pray that we can all decided to listen very carefully and attentively.
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:20
			I will be learning Amina shavonda watching Bismillah
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:58
			yo
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:07
			yo
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:14
			name is
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:09
			so what
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:12
			do I
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:15
			mean?
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:21
			He goes
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:24
			on
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			salatu salam
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:56
			aleikum wa salam ala Muhammad Ali Muhammad.
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:05
			Majeed, allama baddeck Allah Mohammed, Mohammed
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:09
			Mohammed Ahmed.
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:43
			We commenced by praising Allah subhanho wa Taala sending blessings and salutations upon Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, his entire household and all his companions, we ask Allah subhana wa
Jalla to bless every single one of them, and to bless us all and our offspring those to come up to
the day of piano. May Allah subhanho wa Taala bless them all may keep us steadfast and them as well
and may be pleased with us all. I mean, with our brothers and sisters in Islam, this afternoon
inshallah, we will be speaking about the goodly life.
		
00:03:45 --> 00:04:11
			And we will be concentrating on how sometimes a moment of pleasure that seems to be pleasurable can
actually result in disaster that is everlasting. So panela May the almighty protect us May the
almighty grandest goodness, and may He make us distinguish between right and wrong and at the same
time, May He grant us the acceptance to follow the path of goodness and to protect ourselves from
the path of evil.
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:22
			In life, we as meaning should be concentrating on what pleases Allah subhanho wa Taala.
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:57
			Every one of us should be engaged on a daily basis in items, things deeds, statements that are
within the pleasure of the Almighty because the whole aim and purpose of being in this world is in
order to seize the opportunity of this particular life to pack away as many good deeds as possible.
So that when we meet Allah Subhana, WA Tada, our suitcases can be full of good deeds, and we can
have records that will be filled with that which is good, maybe Almighty protect us from that which
is bad and evil.
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:59
			So the aim of life
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:42
			Is to worship Allah to please Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, this is why we are meaning. And this is
the reason why we considered ourselves favorite because we have understood why we have been created.
Allah says in the Quran, I'm sure we would all know it by heart, we should be knowing it off by
heart. Because the question you would ask yourself, I would ask myself in any normal human being
would have to ask himself or herself, at some point in his or her life is why was I made? Why was I
created? And because Allah created us, he knows that this question is only normal to be asked by one
ago, so he answers it. And he says,
		
00:05:54 --> 00:06:02
			I have not created mankind virgin kind, except that they worship me. That's the reason why I made
them.
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:52
			And I've spoken to young people who say is that it isn't are boring, it is selfish. Don't let shavon
make you think for a moment that that is boring. No, it is a lot telling you that I've only created
you so that you worship me. But perhaps you don't understand what is meant by the term worship. What
is meant by the term worship is anything and everything you do in your life, make sure it is within
the pleasure of the Almighty, and it is not within his displeasure, then we will be engaged in
perpetual worship, even whilst you're sleeping. Make sure you don't snore because then we were
speaking with some of my relatives here, telling me it's a Panama there are people who commit
		
00:06:52 --> 00:07:00
			atrocities against their own wives by slowing or let Allah protect us. I don't think that's a weapon
of mass destruction. It's only a nose or throat level.
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:28
			So my brothers and sisters you need to know when you are sleeping or when you go to sleep. How is it
that you went into bed? What was your intention? What were the praise you made? Did you realize what
sleep is and do you know you may not get up if you are if you are conscious of this and you've said
your prayers and so on, even during your sleep, you will be written as a person who is involved in
an act of wish.
		
00:07:30 --> 00:08:10
			Because you are conscious of it. And when you get up what do you say as soon as you get up All
praise is due to Allah who has given me life after he had given me the sleep, which is equivalent to
a certain type of death, love. Some people pass away in their sleep. And they have a very
straightforward simple death, love Akbar. Allah subhanho wa Taala make us from those who realize and
recognize that he is indeed the greatest, he can do whatever he wants, and nobody can ask him. When
we do things we are unsuitable, we are questionable. And this brings me to another meaning of the
term worshipping Allah, anything and everything you do be conscious of the fact that Allah is going
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:25
			to ask you about it you are answerable. Really? How did you do this? Why did you do this? When did
you do it? And even sometimes Why can you not do certain things? If that is the instruction of
Allah, you have no option but to involve in it.
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:37
			If Allah instructs you to dress appropriately, within certain limits and scope, if you think you
have an option you are fighting with Allah wa mercan anymore.
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:52
			It is not for a believing male or female that will
		
00:08:54 --> 00:09:37
			have dictated something that they think in their hearts that we still have a choice about it. No,
you don't. Once there is a dictation from Allah and His or soon, your choice is eradicated. It's no
longer there. That is why your code is submitted. May Allah subhanho wa Taala bless us. What's the
point of calling ourselves Muslim mean? Muslim is one who submits at least Islamic law. One who
submits unto Allah surrenders, whatever Allah says it has it should be happening. So that is why we
are almost living so how can we call ourselves Muslim and at the same time think that I have a
choice? If I'd like to do this, I can if I don't want to, I don't have to. Well then why are you
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:59
			calling yourself a submitted when you're lying? You're not really a submitted lava but Allah
subhanho wa Taala blesses me make it easy for us. This is why my brothers and sisters. What I want
to speak about today is very important. Every action of yours has a reaction. Remember that
everything you do
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:21
			will either return to you in goodness or in something similar to what you have done if it was not
goodness through Allah's mercy, when you do a good deed, he may multiply it very well may come to
you in so many different ways, and he may multiply not only tenfold but up to 700 fold and beyond,
depending on the deed and your sincerity
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:39
			through His mercy when you do a bad deed he recompenses you if you have not returned to him and
engaged in Toba within a specific timeframe, in that particular case, what will happen? He will
recompense you will exactly what you deserve, not multiplied.
		
00:10:41 --> 00:11:21
			This is something that we learn from the hadith of Rasulullah sallallahu sallam, you do a good deed.
You intend the good deed and you were unable to do it. You're rewarded with your intention. You
intend the good deed and you doing it is multiplied for you depending on the sincerity and the
action itself. You intend the bad deed and you do not do it. At times, you may be rewarded to have
abstained for the sake of Allah because abstention from haram for the sake of Allah is indeed a
great act of wish. And if you intend the bad deed and ended up doing it next to your name is one
sin, Allah doesn't multiply. Look at the mercy of Allah. Look at the mercy of Allah. And when we say
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:43
			Allah gives you time and respect every person every time and every deed has different timings before
they are overtaken by that Recompense. So there is no timeframe that is in minutes or hours or days
for years before the punishment may overtake you. But Allah knows he releases you It gives you a
chance. Then Allah says, In
		
00:11:49 --> 00:12:02
			winter when the fixed time of a love comes, when the prescribed moment comes, it will not be delayed
Not at all. So your moment of pleasure that was in the displeasure of Allah, you will pay for it.
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:05
			But Allah says he says
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:11
			if you want not to pay for it, there is a way out. press the delete button.
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:41
			And when you press the delete button, it's not enough you need to press enter. Sure you know that
don't you? Go back to your laptops, your computers, your phones, whatever you want to press Delete.
Normally you'd have to press Enter thereafter you can press Delete, but it may not be nowadays you
might have settings that might allow you to delete it I don't know people are thinking fast You
know, it's a shame you're wrong. I can just press Delete and it's gone. Well you can press undo as
well do you know that go back to you know
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:46
			you think perhaps Mashallah we try to keep up with you.
		
00:12:47 --> 00:13:27
			So my brothers and sisters you delete a new editor that means Are you sure you want to delete this?
they asked you you said yes, I'm sure deleted it's gone wiped out totally out. We've changed our
life, the analysis now the reconvince will not come because it is found a different path. I am
treading a path of disobedience. recompense is coming to me through that path and suddenly delete my
path is changed. It misses me gone. So Pamela, look at the mercy of Allah. So when you do bad
remember, it's coming back to haunt you. Remember that it's coming back to haunt you. There's no two
ways out. It is coming either in this world
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:42
			and the next, or just in this world, or just in the next depending on what Allah wants for you. And
for me, May Allah forgive our shortcomings. This is why we learned as soon as
		
00:13:44 --> 00:14:05
			he spent time of the day every single day saying Oh ALLAH forgive me a Stubblefield Allah, Allah I
seek forgiveness, I repent. And remember there is a difference between Toba and ecfr is still far is
to say, I seek your forgiveness of Allah and Toba is to return to Allah. So we need still far and
Toba esta Furukawa.
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:25
			I seek your forgiveness. And on top of that, I'm now returning to you, which means I'm no longer
going to go back to that path. Some people say they mean it, but they go back. Like I said, undo so
when we come back what happens? That comes back into your computer in the form of a virus, but Allah
protect us really.
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:32
			My brothers and sisters, Allah is so merciful. I'd like to give you a few examples from real life.
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:56
			And these are examples that will help you you know, the way you carry yourself and where you go. And
what you do really plays a big role in what's going to happen to your future in the dunya and the
AFA. Did you ever know that? how you dress also affects your future. And I know people have met
their spouses sometimes in a nightclub. It happens and what happens thereafter
		
00:14:58 --> 00:14:59
			if they end up getting married
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:03
			When I told you they met their spouses, meaning they are married, I'd like to hope
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:07
			they get married after they've met in the nightclub.
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:21
			unless Allah has mercy overtakes them by them engaging in so far and searching for the truth will
likely they will have to pay for that heavily. So let me get this straight. If you engage in it.
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:40
			You can still delete the mistakes you've made in the past. But sometimes you have to pay for a long,
long time going into the you know, you you dressed in miniskirts and that's when your your man your
guy, that guy of your dream. So you noticed you looked at you he did you mean back to Allah
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:46
			Subhana Allah And what happened? He was attracted to your legs.
		
00:15:48 --> 00:16:06
			And he made your legs, not your heart? Did you know that the men get married to your head, your
legs, your facial expressions, and so on not your heart, not your character, not your deal. And then
often what happens? A time comes when you develop a little bit of an arthritis on your legs.
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:18
			That's from Allah. Sometimes it's so cold, you know, here, so you're going to cover them up. And
maybe you have to have a bandage that comes in age when your room spends on weeks you don't six
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:31
			and after that husbands not not at home, but where are you looking at other days? Why? Because
that's what I like to do in the first place. That's what I like in women legs, law,
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:58
			or law, if he was attracted to your deen and you're full of your legs would have been covered, it
would have been a mystery for him. So panela. And at the same time, he would have been attracted to
someone who is covered if he that type of a person was attracted towards you, because you are trying
to achieve the pleasure of Allah. It means he too, would like through you to achieve the pleasure of
Allah and perhaps to have offspring who will be on similar lines. Then what will happen
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:07
			30 years down the line 40 years down the line. When both of you are in bed. You'd say Darling, you
might Angel.
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:10
			And you look at him and start crying.
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:18
			Because you know this man loves me for for the fact that I'm trying to earn the pleasure online.
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:21
			And he hasn't abused that. Not at all.
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:59
			And even though I'm wrinkled up perhaps hunchbacked, but to him, the most important person here at
the moment, Allah May Allah subhanho wa Taala grant disputes. Why I give this example there are too
many people who select the spouse because of a temporary disobedience that they had engaged in short
term, you were happy, Allah gave you the most beautiful hair. And you decided that, you know, wow.
This way, you know, something here the other day, we were passing in Bolton, you know. And near the
train station, I think the university was released.
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:18
			And you know, I try my best I try my best. I'm also human being online, you need to know that, you
know, people really raise you high above whatever you say you are. But the truth is human being. And
as I looked across, I noticed someone with hair and I said, this is the meaning of camel camel.
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:20
			I don't know it was
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:26
			a lot. It went up. And I'm thinking.
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:38
			And obviously it did not attract me at all. But I was shocked. And when I looked down, I said to
myself, people look so sick. And they really think they cool.
		
00:18:39 --> 00:19:20
			It's cool to look like a demo online. Is that what it is? Half the time we don't even know, half the
time we don't even know what we're doing is actually a satanic ritual. It's a ritual. It is an act
of worship of the devil worshipers and we think okay, let me take that black, whatever it's called
and bring it right to the corner here. Let it come all the way up to you and not realizing that's
how they worship the devil go and see. So today we have Google and YouTube and all this and it's not
difficult to find out where it came from and how it started and our sisters are doing that my sister
if a guy is attracted to you like that he's the guy you're supposed to be away from because that is
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:36
			the guy who's gonna take you away from your deal. The day you realize you made a mistake, he will
not allow you to turn to Allah because he's gonna keep on telling you they take that stuff off when
I met you. You didn't have it when I married you you had an inch of ice on your face and I wanted
back then.
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:42
			Yes, and that's why I used to call him a cake.
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:45
			Goddess.
		
00:19:46 --> 00:20:00
			That little call for a few moments has resulted in eternal suffering or should I say long term
suffering, if not eternal? Because you trapped you want to return you cannot return why you made a
mistake by not dressing appropriately.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:01
			In the first place
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:17
			it's a very important example of brothers as well, we have sometimes because of something we've done
outwardly or a place, we will found that, you know, you go to a club, this has happened to me in
real life, where a brother went to the club.
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:22
			And he came back. And about a year later, he came to me.
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:51
			He told me, I've got a very big problem. I said, What is it? A young lad, and supposedly religious.
He says, last year, some time with a group of friends, you know, we was hanging out, and we went to
this club, and we spent three hours in the club. I said, Did you engage in doba? He said, every day.
Listen to this every day. I cried to Allah. So I said, so forgive you. He said, I've got a bigger
problem.
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:53
			I'm a father.
		
00:20:54 --> 00:20:58
			You know what he's saying? He impregnated someone in one night. I said,
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:20
			may Allah subhanho wa Taala. Open your doors, you know, now what do we say we live in an environment
that is not an Islamic environment? And he's crying more and more, and I've tried to what should I
do comfort him, admonish him or try and tell him we tried to give him a little bit of hope, at least
each other? Don't worry, you can still he says, No. He explains to me. I'm a father of three
children.
		
00:21:22 --> 00:21:24
			He said she did have a triplets.
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:29
			We can laugh at it, but it's shocking. It's a true story.
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:35
			And he says, I've never been to a club before that or after that.
		
00:21:37 --> 00:21:52
			And then I thought to myself, Allahu Akbar, a moment of pleasure, which is not actually pleasure,
but following the knifes and we'll have a look at the results. My sisters, that sister was not a
Muslim. But that could happen to anyone if you let your guard down. Be careful.
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:59
			I like to think you're Emmanuel Islam. your virginity is the next most valuable thing you own.
		
00:22:01 --> 00:22:11
			Yes, your deen thereafter. Your chastity, your movement, your lady protected. That doesn't mean the
men shouldn't. But a woman so Hannah law.
		
00:22:12 --> 00:22:24
			Society may never forgive, you know how it is Allah. And Allah always does. But you may have
stretched your sleep in a way that that scratch will always appear on your
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:31
			brother brothers don't think you can get away with it in the sense that the only way forward is
engaged in television.
		
00:22:32 --> 00:22:37
			And in fact, before that, don't fall in that path control yourself.
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:51
			And this is why we are taught to lower our gaze for what so that we don't even go that direction
imagined. I'm only speaking about the connection of the opposite sexes. We haven't yet gone into
anything else.
		
00:22:52 --> 00:23:36
			And we've spoken about dress code, how it can affect you one little thing and what can happen. haram
relation how religion if you don't catch it, now it comes back to haunt you. Last night I spoke
about how sometimes when you have had your nica your marriage the sacred union, which will result in
a progeny who will be the oma of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam to come from that sacred Union
and the party you had in order to celebrate such a sacred union was a free for all mix party with a
lot of music and dancing. Sometimes we've hired you know, people to come in dance on the floor and
everybody comes in I know Muslim functions that have served alcohol, claiming that this is only for
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:38
			the non Muslim guests.
		
00:23:42 --> 00:23:48
			If that's the case, if you have not engaged in Toba thereafter,
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:57
			if you have not engaged in sincere Toba and shed tears, what wrong you did the day you got married,
		
00:23:58 --> 00:24:26
			it will come back to haunt you either in the form of absolutely disobedient children or in the form
of some form of difficulty that Allah has chosen for you because you play a game with the Creator,
who is the owner, the one that you control, the one who can release the sky. Now, the one who can
open the ground now the one who can cause anything to happen at any time. He's the owner. Don't play
games with him.
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:28
			I have a friend you might know him.
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:34
			He's a boxer and a rugby player. He went to come here and he's taller than me about so much.
		
00:24:36 --> 00:24:46
			Imagine he's got you know, six packs solid guy. And he would say to you know your hand like this,
you know when he's finished with you, you like oh,
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:59
			and he just shook you normally Imagine if he had to squeeze what would happen. And if he was there,
and you had to do something, you know, like, sway him or something. I don't think anyone would do
that because you know, he could
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:02
			Perhaps just lift you up and say Hey, what's going on?
		
00:25:04 --> 00:25:30
			We are frightened of human beings because we see them physically in front of us as stronger than us.
But we're not fighting of Allah police that he will gela who owns your eyes and your nose and your
breathing and your heart and your your entire system and then your digestion the works he owns
absolutely everything. You don't worry about that. You still want to displease him, while the effect
of it will come back but there's a way out delete an editor.
		
00:25:31 --> 00:25:34
			Why we say delete and enter is because of the following verse.
		
00:25:36 --> 00:25:36
			In
		
00:25:41 --> 00:25:43
			Swanee hat.
		
00:25:52 --> 00:26:12
			When Allah speaks of those who will be receiving double punishment, he says, except those who have
repented, believed and done good deeds thereafter, we will convert those bad deeds on the other side
of the scale as good deed SubhanAllah. What this means is you repent and after repentance, you do
good deeds, as we say.
		
00:26:14 --> 00:26:36
			One Direction makes mention of how if you follow up the bad deeds with good deeds after Toba, they
will be wiped out completely. And as for the minus and sometimes they are wiped out as you engaging
in more and more good deeds to Panama major sins requires specific token, you need to know I was
wrong. I regret I asked for forgiveness and I'm not going to repeat for conditions.
		
00:26:37 --> 00:26:41
			If that's meant wiped, out, deleted, edited, gone.
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:47
			Now let's get to the issue of sustenance. Sometimes, you know,
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:54
			back at home, we have a problem. What's the problem? I don't know you're facing here.
		
00:26:55 --> 00:27:12
			The lottery, the guys in the line, I'm assuming sometimes you're standing in the line to buy
tickets, tickets of the lottery. And you tell them share. This is how you know there is a fifth one
that came from one corner of some way that says there's nothing wrong with this.
		
00:27:13 --> 00:27:15
			Those are not fair to us fatwas.
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:21
			Allah protect us, Allah subhanho wa Taala Countess goodness.
		
00:27:25 --> 00:27:26
			You know what happens?
		
00:27:28 --> 00:28:04
			They would lose their money or if they want the money, the excitement of the women, results in their
downfall, just like a man who consumes interest, or a man who has learned how to female who has said
sustenance suhara what happens? The left Well, they may be excited for a moment to say I achieved
and I got it will not be spent in the pleasure of Allah but in the disobedience of Allah. And it
will not come about with any goodness, the energy that your body derives from that which is haram
will never achieve satisfaction except to harm. So the Quran says
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:07
			and levena
		
00:28:13 --> 00:28:16
			shame on me nonetheless.
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:22
			This verse has several meanings are mentioned one of them, the one who consumes interest,
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:27
			or those who consume interest, they do not stay
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:32
			except like the sending of he who is possessed by the devil.
		
00:28:33 --> 00:29:02
			So you could say their thinking is warped completely as a possessed person, or you could say when
they are resurrected, that's also included in it. Or you could say the way they behave the way they
carry themselves is absolutely unacceptable. Yes, yet they may think they are doing something good.
Somehow they won't understand and realize, you see when I put a morsel of in my mouth, it may have
tasted good. Allah protect us.
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:38
			And we might be excited I afford it so much your income was Haram. Okay, what happens? Your tongue
curses you the throat softeners going down. Little intestine, the colon, everything cursing you
doesn't want to be late. You've now got energy from the food that you've eaten which is haram or
from a haram source. So now the energy comes into your eyes, your brain. So your eyes are not
Quidditch? Quidditch? your eyesight unless you look at home, so your wife ugly Why? Because your
consumption is wrong.
		
00:29:40 --> 00:29:51
			But when you look on the street, Okay, brother that's not yours. You're not going to get it anyway.
Don't look. It's no waste. Don't waste your time. And if you do, it will be so hard on Allah protect
us.
		
00:29:54 --> 00:29:59
			So you're not crazy unless you look around when you think you're not quenched. Unless
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:19
			You think that you think the vetted thoughts or thoughts, and you start thinking things against
Allah, and so on? Because you're the energy being used now is derived from heroin source. What do
you expect your brain to be used for? You need to engage in Toba to clarify your system.
		
00:30:21 --> 00:31:07
			This is why there is a narration that says that piece of flesh that is built through harem cannot
edit agenda because it is preferred to be in hellfire. It needs to burn out there. When you enter
gentlemen, why should we do that? And this is why we say if you hold on to *, or if you
find yourself very very attracted to haram ask yourself how's my income? What am I doing? Perhaps
there are other things which I'm doing which have clustered together all the time. You paying for
it? You might have just had in one bout 20,000 pounds interest or the lottery of 200,000 pounds. And
what happens then after you one by one, you making payments until your reproductive system is
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:10
			contaminated. And I don't even want to go for
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:12
			love.
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:36
			Silver We are so fortunate imagine the mercy of Allah. Allah has given us a gift known as repentance
Allah He, I sit and I think to myself, yeah, Allah, Allah, Allah mean countless if who you are,
you've given us a way to just say I'm sorry. And you always say it's okay. Hello. Hello. Imagine you
harm someone. I'm sorry.
		
00:31:37 --> 00:31:49
			They're going to keep on saying Okay, okay. Okay. It's okay. There is a limited, I'm sure you know
the story of the three, you know, the pious guys. And if you don't know it, you have to do a bit of
googling in Java.
		
00:31:51 --> 00:32:00
			You cannot get away with it all the time. But with Allah, He says, Don't want to repeat you have
that genuine repentance with the conditions we will forgive you.
		
00:32:02 --> 00:32:22
			And this is why we say the hands of those who have eaten will never ever be satisfied unless they
touch harem, unless they feel how the legs will not be happy unless they will walk towards harm. So
engage in Toba so that you can actually resolve that matter, purify yourself once again. This is why
we say
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:49
			engage in Java so many times a day, how many do you do in a day how many times he did not need it to
be honest with you, but 100 Times up to 100 times a day he used to say Allah forgive me. I am guilty
of not following the net sooner according to the method I'm supposed to be follow. And I'm sure we
all could do much better than we are. Now open our doors.
		
00:32:51 --> 00:33:05
			So this is the middle contentment that you might have have had on income, how it contaminates your
entire system. And then your mind is dirty, your eyes are dirty, your nose is dirty everything your
hands, your legs, your feet, whatever else may Allah safeguard us and God's goodness.
		
00:33:07 --> 00:33:10
			The same applies to these little moments
		
00:33:11 --> 00:33:13
			that we engage in sin.
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:18
			If a person has to die in that condition will
		
00:33:20 --> 00:33:26
			then receive the dual Toby's will not happen. Doesn't happen. In Amata.
		
00:33:29 --> 00:34:03
			Toba is acceptable. up to the point of law is one of the stages of psychology when you're about to
die. One final stage known as another up to that point, you can say Allah forgive me, Allah do this
Yala. I asked you, you know, I repent and so on will forgive you that it will go down in your book.
But beyond that point, no, the doors closed. It's too late. So this is why Allah Subhana Allah Allah
speaks about these are presses the ones who were pressed against themselves, the ones who've been
the ones who've engaged in that which is absolutely unacceptable. And unless is Elijah
		
00:34:11 --> 00:34:13
			Lani
		
00:34:15 --> 00:34:16
			FEMA
		
00:34:18 --> 00:34:21
			can in Kereama
		
00:34:26 --> 00:34:30
			Allah says when it comes to them, they would say, oh,
		
00:34:31 --> 00:34:32
			return.
		
00:34:33 --> 00:34:47
			Why don't you return? We want to go back and do good deeds. Now. We know now we've seen Alice's
name. It's just a statement that it's just a statement has been made to go back, they would have
repeated the same thing again.
		
00:34:49 --> 00:34:59
			Learn how to make us from those. So these are moments that sometimes we spend thinking that this is
pleasure, and you don't realize it is like a seed that is sown
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:08
			So bad then when the tree grows, the only way out is to cut the tree out and replant love.
		
00:35:09 --> 00:35:11
			Don't underestimate
		
00:35:13 --> 00:35:16
			how a little sin can change your life
		
00:35:18 --> 00:35:38
			towards what is negative. Don't ever underestimate that. Remember, for the pleasure of Allah, you
need to hold yourself back, you need to understand, you know, we have solid federal, if you notice
up to now I've spoken about the importance of abstaining from the displeasure of Allah,
		
00:35:39 --> 00:35:51
			which might be within someone's within the pleasure of one's neffs. For a moment, we've concentrated
on that. But now I'd like to speak about
		
00:35:52 --> 00:36:37
			the difficulty that one should endure if they find it difficult, in order to obey the instructions
of Allah subhanho wa Taala. So to abstain from prohibition, that's one thing, but to engage in your
obligations and fulfill them correctly, that is another thing. So you would need to get up for solid
federal, you will need to engage in that which you are supposed to and it might require an effort it
will definitely require an effort initially, when people are not so used to reading Salah you know,
they might feel very lazy, you have no option you have to get up it's routine. It is something solid
to the future. Don't say I'm lazy, no throw the laziness out. Well, if you have a train to catch or
		
00:36:37 --> 00:36:42
			a plane to catch, you will be there 15 minutes or 15 minutes ahead of time.
		
00:36:44 --> 00:36:51
			What is your plane into the era? Are you going to get out for Serato or whatever if a man says you
know what, this is the last
		
00:36:54 --> 00:37:08
			and you sorting away? It can be and this is why we say do not delay your Salah Subhanallah you don't
know if your moment might be before the ending time of that particular Salah Allah Allah knows
		
00:37:09 --> 00:37:10
			Don't delay
		
00:37:12 --> 00:37:20
			fulfilling it's not an option. It's an obligation you have to you have no option and if you think
you have an option Allah it will result in regrets.
		
00:37:21 --> 00:37:24
			May Allah subhanho wa Taala forgive our shortcomings
		
00:37:26 --> 00:37:31
			when we have other moments where people lose their faith long term
		
00:37:32 --> 00:37:48
			say a person gets sick and Ill we have difficulty in society where as soon as someone gets in first
person they have to be someone who they claim knows the unseen no no in the unseen. That's your
email God. It's literally sold.
		
00:37:50 --> 00:37:53
			You've actually sold it for nothing for attachments, love
		
00:37:54 --> 00:37:58
			knowing the unseen. Yeah, they told me my sister in law did magic on me.
		
00:38:00 --> 00:38:03
			himself. There's a difficulty with this email to start with.
		
00:38:05 --> 00:38:20
			No, they're communicating with the gym. Believe me in the gym. I'm making a mockery of everybody.
They cannot tell you who did was never ever no ways. If they did, there is a problem with their
environment. If you believe them, there is a bigger problem with yours.
		
00:38:21 --> 00:38:41
			You cannot do that. shaper makes you destroy your family relation. So every time someone is sick,
Brother, you are limping because of what you did last night. And tomorrow morning. You're blaming
your sister in law for that. Why? Because she told you that love became careful. That's your Eman
loss loss.
		
00:38:42 --> 00:38:43
			You cannot do that.
		
00:38:49 --> 00:39:05
			So if you have a sickness, like I said, you need to do what is acceptable in Islam in order to help
yourself you seek medication you make dua and you constantly perhaps engage in the do as
		
00:39:06 --> 00:39:36
			a symptom or even if you're just asking to add in your own language and you're reading perhaps the
Quran and you're engaged in Salah crying to Allah subhanho wa Taala to cure you you might want to
use as I said different medication, go for some caffeine perhaps may utilize some some raw honey
with a little bit of black seed at the same time some dates perhaps the Adra perhaps some olive oil,
perhaps zum zum and so on. And you want to use what the Quran says there is Shiva in and what is
taught by us
		
00:39:37 --> 00:39:53
			and you may also visit the doctor and have some medication and so on constantly made up to that
moment inshallah by the word of Allah subhanho wa Taala what you've engaged in is okay, but the
minute you start going to the superstitious doctors, they call it a witch doctors.
		
00:39:55 --> 00:39:59
			A lot of people are doing this and sometimes the witch doctor is given the name of a shake
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:01
			But he's really shocked.
		
00:40:02 --> 00:40:15
			He doesn't tell you that sometimes he doesn't know that himself. What about him? It's hard for
someone to come and tell you what to claim. And for you to even believe that he knows even a little
portion of the unseen he doesn't. He doesn't believe me.
		
00:40:16 --> 00:40:49
			And if the gym have helped him arrive at an answer, he's been fooled. Because the genies just lying.
Their job is to print family relations all the time. When people have come to me, they say, Well, I
was told it's one of your family members. Every time they say that, what nonsense Don't you know the
plan of the devil? The devil is the one who wants to break your family. That's why he does it. It's
not one of your family members. Those are innocent people. They are the closest to you. Develop your
needs with Allah you should learn why the last.
		
00:40:50 --> 00:41:12
			So as a result of that little small temporary moment of pleasure where you were so excited finally
I've been told who it was as a result of that your family ties broken your link with allies knocked
up everything is gone and DB what happens is you still think you're doing something good and you
think I'm getting gender but you don't realize I've been involved in what is known as she will not
give up.
		
00:41:14 --> 00:41:16
			I've associated partners with a lot
		
00:41:17 --> 00:41:52
			cheaper and he's happy he's now Matthew and he's gone to someone else. Why he knows this one gonna
last out. I succeeded. Shay bond is waiting at every path for me and you He's waiting. He says I
will stand in front behind on the size waiting in ambush every little opportunity he gets he's very
pounds so be careful. Watch out for him. Look out for him on a daily basis he comes to me and you if
you think your day has passed without Shepherd having come to you you have not reflected upon the
deep enough to find out how he tried coming today.
		
00:41:55 --> 00:42:36
			Lord, Allah subhanho wa Taala purify myself in yourselves. So this is why we say my brothers and
sisters his little moments. If you might feel is a pleasurable moment the light can create a lot of
disaster. Be careful. Be careful what you do online. Be careful what you do with your mobile phones.
Be careful what you do with your relations. Be careful how you dress. Be careful how you work. Be
careful where you work. Be careful what you do, be careful of your league with Allah you need to
make sure you've developed you need to make sure you've read your Salah you need to make sure you
are worried about the next Salah that is that is a quality that will keep you from this small
		
00:42:36 --> 00:42:51
			temporary false pleasures that result in crying forever after. Because if you read the Salah, and
your mind is already connected to the next one, between the two by the will of Allah you will be
protected from a lot in Asia.
		
00:42:53 --> 00:42:58
			And when you read the next Salah you worried about the next one, you will be protected again.
		
00:42:59 --> 00:43:33
			And if you really think the world is all about enjoying as much as you can, and having as much fun
as you can, you've actually lost the sense that you don't know why we did that. You can enjoy within
the limits. You can enjoy within the limits. nobody's saying divorce yourself completely from the
pleasure of Allah no meaning from something which might be enjoyable within the limits of Allah.
Allah says we've given you we've allowed you we know what you want, but we've restricted you follow
our restrictions. And I want to end with one final bit of advice. And that is
		
00:43:34 --> 00:43:47
			my brothers and sisters. Everything that Allah has made prohibited. He has made it prohibited
because of its damaging effects upon us within the dunya first and benefit.
		
00:43:48 --> 00:44:29
			So when Allah says this is how I don't think that okay, I might get away with a bit of it never you
want. Maybe for a moment you might you know get excited to be happy. If that is wrong. It is wrong
in order to protect you your dignity, your deen, your Eman, your contentment, your happiness, your
offspring, your family and everything to do with your goodness is protecting so stay away from it.
When a boss is dressed like this in a specific way, it is to protect you to raise your rank your
dignity to give you contentment, happiness, to protect you from all the evil around you to keep you
in a position that you are supposed to be in so that you are not abused and used and so that you are
		
00:44:29 --> 00:44:33
			not tampered with so that you are respected that you're
		
00:44:38 --> 00:44:54
			sick of the job and then Allah says it is better for them so they are recognized and not abused.
They're not harmed. So panela today, a female has been reduced to a * tool will lie. They want to
sell times and they have a naked woman
		
00:44:55 --> 00:44:59
			to do with time. commodity a good time.
		
00:45:01 --> 00:45:07
			To save a life sometimes she's going to suck for a man to pass by law. Nowadays,
		
00:45:08 --> 00:45:10
			the strong ones my sisters will say, brother,
		
00:45:12 --> 00:45:13
			Allah make it easy.
		
00:45:14 --> 00:45:19
			Allah bless us all. So this is how they've been reduced to an object.
		
00:45:20 --> 00:45:28
			Look at those who have accepted Islam from amongst the non Muslims who used to bury tall for a
living.
		
00:45:30 --> 00:45:31
			I've come across a sister
		
00:45:34 --> 00:45:51
			who used literally exactly what I said she used to work for *, she accepted Islam. And she's
now properly dressed and she's actually given an interview you might find it on YouTube a lot. And
she says a few powerful words you might take a word or two from someone like that. You might learn a
thing or two.
		
00:45:52 --> 00:46:06
			And we have been blessed by Allah sometimes to be born muslimeen we are abandoning our dress What a
shame I always say Allah says we will replace you if you're trying to be like that, we will replace
you
		
00:46:07 --> 00:46:08
			replacing one by one.
		
00:46:10 --> 00:46:43
			My brothers and sisters, anything that is haram is haram in order to protect you and for your
goodness and in order to help you achieve contentment in this world. And in order for you to sail
through the fear of into paradise, may Allah grant that to us. And anything that is made obligatory
and compulsory upon you is only done in order to achieve the same. So your dignity, your focus, your
success in the dunya your contentment is through Salah.
		
00:46:44 --> 00:46:45
			On and so on.
		
00:46:46 --> 00:46:49
			You know Allah says Allah subhana wa Taala
		
00:47:02 --> 00:47:06
			those who believe they achieve the calmness of the heart,
		
00:47:07 --> 00:47:13
			from the from the reminder of Allah the reminders, the ad cow, the hyena masala
		
00:47:15 --> 00:47:36
			you read the child understand its meaning protect yourself from that which is an innovation and that
which is association of partnership with Allah in any way see the content but you feel see how happy
you become. See your link with Allah develop. Today people develop a link with a human being and
they get excited, I noticed that
		
00:47:38 --> 00:47:46
			he doesn't even know whether he's going to paradise or not. And what do you think you just since
clean laundry clean out in America, he owns Jenga, he will give it to you.
		
00:47:51 --> 00:47:54
			cling on to your mega he owns gentlemen, he will give it to you
		
00:47:55 --> 00:47:56
			if you click into him
		
00:47:59 --> 00:48:17
			so this is why we say whatever is compulsory for your benefit. If you don't understand it, you're
like a little child. A little child who's playing with a knife throwing it up and dad says Hey,
leave the knife. He puts it down comes down. When dad is not looking for it. Take it again play Hey,
what's up, goes back.
		
00:48:18 --> 00:48:41
			This guy teaches again, as he throws it up in his eyes last night my Dad Dad. Dad says Didn't I tell
you not to play with a knife? We are worse than that child who did that? Why? Because Allah is
telling us not to play with things that are haram and we continue playing and the beauty is you
cannot hide it from Allah.
		
00:48:42 --> 00:48:54
			He knows what you're doing. And you still playing with the knife when your eyes burst one day
something worse than an IP in buses when you ask Allah His bus what's going to happen? He was gonna
say I didn't I tell you
		
00:48:57 --> 00:48:57
			what she
		
00:49:03 --> 00:49:03
			has
		
00:49:14 --> 00:49:15
			coo coo,
		
00:49:17 --> 00:49:19
			COO, COO, coo
		
00:49:21 --> 00:49:22
			coo
		
00:49:32 --> 00:49:59
			King has caught Kadima to La caffine. In surah Zuma, right at the end Allah says the people of Ghana
will be driven to jam in groups when they get to its door the door shall be opened and the
gatekeepers of Hellfire will say but didn't the messages from amongst you come to you reciting the
basis of Allah and warning you of this day and they will say yes indeed but no
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:38
			What would have happened? They would have not taken heed and therefore they would be punished. May
Allah subhanho wa Taala protect us from them. So this message does not come to you from amongst you,
warning you reading the verses of Allah reminding you about the signs of Allah and encouraging you
to do that which was good warning you of the day that you're going to meet a law the answer is yes,
they came, they delivered the message. What did you do about it? Did you still engage in those
little temporary pleasures which resulted in long term downfall? Or did you turn back to Allah in
Toba? Never lose hope in the mercy of Allah no matter what you've done, no matter what you've done,
		
00:50:39 --> 00:50:51
			Allah loves you. And Allah definitely does love you. You are the one who needs to pick that love up
by understanding. He's just waiting for me to tell me.
		
00:50:52 --> 00:51:08
			repent to Allah. Promise I'm about to do it again. And you do not fall and falter. And if for some
reason your foot slips a little bit, immediately pick it up, clean your foot, carry on walking. But
that means is if you find yourself faltering slightly this way that way,
		
00:51:09 --> 00:51:50
			he cannot engage in Toba and turn back to the path continue walking now must Allah bless us all it's
been really a good afternoon this afternoon here in Birmingham, we thank Allah for bringing us
together we hope and pray we've taken a thing or two. May Allah Subhana Allah grant us the ability
to obey His instruction for indeed, happiness is in the hands of Allah He owns it we cannot seek it
through his displeasure. So you cannot see happiness through the displeasure of the owner of
happiness you're actually playing a game that is very dangerous if you're doing that the best thing
for me and you to do is to turn to Allah Allah granted to myself, I mean, he made this a means of
		
00:51:50 --> 00:51:56
			inshallah, our entry into paradise do we meet again, sometimes perhaps in Birmingham, we say it was
other level was
		
00:51:58 --> 00:52:00
			handy, so panic alone will be handy.
