Trust Allah! He is in Control!

Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al hamdu Lillahi wa sallahu wa sallahu wa salam ala Baraka Allah Mallanna BIA Bada who were Allah, Allah, he was so happy here Jermaine,

my beloved brothers, my sisters,

we are Muslim. A Muslim is a person who submits Unto Allah, Allah Malaysia to Angela, a Muslim is a person. A Muslim is a person who does what Allah Almighty wants and how do I know what Allah Almighty wants? He sent to us messengers from the very beginning to remind us to worship Him alone, which is the most important message.

He sent messengers and from the very beginning, Adam Alayhi Salatu was Salam reminded his own children to worship Allah alone. She alayhi salam reminded his people, his children, his family, to worship Allah alone. No, no or may peace be upon him, reminded his people to turn back to Allah alone. And if we go further and further we will find all the messengers of Allah with exactly the same message. That message was to worship Allah alone, Who is Allah, Allah is the worshipped one, He who made entire creation, that is Allah, He who made you and I, that is Allah, he whom I am going to return to, after I die and you and entire creation when it comes to an end, we'll be returning to

none other than the one who made this creation in the first place. Allah Allah is that you will learn.

So if you look at the message of all the messengers, it is identical when it comes to who you should worship. There was never a discrepancy, never a change. There was never any difference of opinion among the messengers, even though they came one after the other, they all called towards worshiping the maker alone, whoever made you,

you worship Him alone, and who is he? He is the worshipped one Allah, none other than Allah. He has names He has qualities that are uniquely his, no one shares any of the qualities of Allah to the degree or the level of

that which Allah holds. When you say this person is very forgiving. He's not on the level of Allah. Allah is gonna foreign foreign Rahim. etc. These are the names of Allah, Allah is Most forgiving. You and I, we might forgive small things. Wait until something big happens. And then something bigger happens and something even bigger happens. We have limits Allah has no limits. Allah can do what he wants Philo Lima, Yuri read, he continues to do whatever he wishes, whatever he wants. Nothing happens on Earth except by the will of Allah. He knows about it. He lets it be. It is Allah He is in control. But it's all part of a test for all of us.

Life is short. One day is good. One day is bad. One day is for you. One day is against you, my brothers, my sisters. Believe in Allah. If you have a relation with Allah, The Good Day is Alhamdulillah the bad day is also Alhamdulillah there are five prayers a day on a good day it is five on a bad day it is still five Subhanallah In fact, when something bad happens, we get closer to Allah today. We are seated here. We thank Allah that Allah has given us a chance to sit in his beautiful house. This is the house of Allah. We are so many in number. Why are we here because there is an instruction of Allah.

You are here and I am here to worship Allah to listen to a good word that will bring me closer to Allah to develop my Yaqeen and conviction in Allah. Do you have a guarantee? That tonight will be a happy night? Do you have a guarantee that you are going to be alive tonight? Tonight is far before tonight. There is no guarantee people can pass away here and now sometimes who knows what might happen as we live? May Allah Almighty grant us janitorial for DOS, may Allah give us a good death. May Allah help us the reason I say that from the very beginning Allah wants

As to worship Him alone. And Allah Almighty wants us to do what he has instructed that instruction he sent messengers all these prophets of Allah and who is the final Nabhi? Who is the final messenger of Allah? Muhammad Abdullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, what did he teach? When it comes to belief and Aqeedah? He taught exactly what Jesus taught May peace be upon him, he taught exactly what Moses taught May peace be upon him. What was that worship your maker alone and no one else Moses May peace be upon him said Worship your maker alone, and no one else, Harun May peace be upon him same thing. Ibrahim the Prophet Abraham May peace be upon him. What did he say? He said, Do not

worship the sun, do not worship the moon. Don't worship the stars don't worship creation, worship the one who made you alone. What Jana has to watch you hear me let the firepower Osama wah

wah honey? Well,

I mean, most shrinking, I have turned my face to the One Who created the heavens and the earth. Pure impure pure worship of Him alone. And I am not going to associate partners with Allah, you and I as Muslims, we do sujood what is sujood so do this prostration omitted to us Judah Allah Subhana Allah, the Prophet peace be upon him says I have been instructed to prostrate on seven bones. What are the seven bones? l Jabba the forehead and the nose is the same bone wha Shara BIA de la and V? Well, Leah Dany will rock Botania ultrafilter domain, the hands that's another two so one plus to the knees. That's another two that is now five. And then we chose your toes they go down right when you

are in sujood they are touching the ground. So seven bones. What is that?

That is the highest level of a burden is when you are on the lowest physical point. Subhanallah look, my head is on the ground. Allah says Allah caribou, Maya Kannada Abdullah behavoir who are sajit the closest my worshiper is to me when he is Institute. But where are you? I am right down right down to the ground. Subhanallah when you are close to the ground, you are closer to Allah. Have you thought of it? Allah says you want to be close to me, the closest you can ever get to me is in the position of prostration sujood. But you are never, ever allowed to make sujood for anyone or anything besides Allah, that is an a badass and all a badass all acts of worship, that is an act of

worship and all acts of worship are only and solely for Allah. None other than Allah. Now, if Allah has made me and he told me Worship Me alone, how do I know what and how to worship Allah? How do I know? Should I wave my hands? Should I blink my eyes? Should I turn my head? Should I stomp my feet? Should I hit the drums? What should I do? What is going to be pleasing to Allah? Is it from my brain? The answer is no. It's not from your brain. Allah must decide how he wants me to worship him. I cannot do it on my own. I need to know.

Some people when they want to worship Allah, they just do anything and say I'm sure Allah will be happy to wish what do you what are you talking about? You can just shake your head like this and say I'm sure Allah will be happy with the what is that? Where did you get it from? Did someone teach you? If they did, who was it? If it came from Allah through the messengers, you are right, if it came from someone else, you are wrong, no matter how right you think you are, you're wrong because Allah did not teach you that. So acts of worship are solely for Allah and the acts of worship are determined solely by Allah no one else may Allah Almighty make a strong you want to read the Quran

read as much as you want. It isn't a bada. You will fulfill your five Salah fulfill the FARA then you go to the Sunnah, then you go to the nothing as much as you like, but you cannot increase the forum to say Okay, today I'm very happy with Allah so I'm going to increase instead of four.

You cannot do that. You need to listen to what Allah has taught you. So when you worship Allah the way he wants, and when you develop a relationship with Allah how he wishes, what happens to you

Heart it becomes strong and pure. You fear none but Allah. You are prepared for the meeting with Allah and you are preparing for the meeting with Allah every day. If you are to die right now you have hope in the Mercy of Allah. Why? Because I'm trying my best to do what Allah wants. This life is full of challenges every day there is a challenge. Like I said at the beginning, Yeoman laka, Yamuna. alayka a day for you a day against you. No problem. Allah is great. I am alive I will try my best I have my hands and my feet I have my ability. I'm going to do my best if Allah takes what I have a way Alhamdulillah if Allah takes me away, Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah I'm gone. What will
