Mufti Menk – Unplugged – New Ramadan is Here!

			Salam aleikum. Ramadan is coming up in a day or two. And it's very important for us to look forward
to welcome this wonderful month of Ramadan. We are at the moment in Uganda we are leaving Uganda in
sha Allah later today or we will ask Allah Almighty and we always ask him to help us and assist us
in our journeys. One of the most beautiful things is to have amazing company and
		

			finally
		

			ready for Ramadan? Ready for Ramadan? Why not sha Allah I mean Allah. Ramadan
		

			very well shall have a seat. You're good, Masha. Why don't we take a walk in the beautiful
Mashallah. So whether you like what I was saying preparation for Ramadan, share, give us some few
tips here. You Smilla Rahmanir Rahim you know in order for people to recognize how important it is
and how great is such opportunity, as a Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam called it in one of the
references as Neff hat, seasons of goodness where the good deeds, their word for them will be
augmented way beyond the regular augmentation and multiplication of their word. Thrown had no
Obaidullah one of the 10 Heaven bound companions mentioned a very interesting story about two people
		

			who walked into the machine and they both torture had and accepted Islam on the same day. They need
describe one of them as very active in a battle and much more active than the other one. Subhan
Allah has shown the Muslim army and he died as a Shaheed the other guy survived in a year later he
died on his bed. So when a Tarhana obey the law one night he saw them standing in front of the gate
of heaven, and he was there. And then an angel came from heaven. And he called on the one who died
Lyra, who didn't die as a Shaheed, who was less active in worship the other guy and said join me and
he escorted him to Jannah and then a while later he came back and he's quoted Shaheed so when he
		

			woke up Pasha, the dream of the Sahaba as you know that their dreams or dreams or some sort of
inspiration, everyone who's possible, are talking about it. It just happened that the Prophet
sallallahu sallam was walking up on them said why are you so amazed? What is the story? What's the
important said What amazes you and that they said yeah rasool Allah How come they Shaheed
intergender layer I should interject for is it didn't the guy
		

			who will live for another year witness another Ramadan that the Shahid missed? They said yes reason
by Allah is in a higher rank than the Shang and the gap between the two ranks is wider and greater
than the gap between the heavens and the earth. You brothers and sisters do you know what it means
that Masha Allah will live to witness another Ramadan? Now we'll figure out why the Sahaba used to
say for six months alone.
		

			To reach Ramadan, I want to ask something is it just the fact of witnessing Ramadan that escalate
once reward you have or worshipping Allah from Avani Eman and YT sub and make the most of it. There
is no value. In fact it is highly sinful for a person to witness it on my phone and they are doing
nothing they are neither fasting nor praying it is a pillar of Islam you know this is something
people yes Rima and for Aberdeen may lose May he be disgraced a person who witnesses Ramadan
physically, and then it comes out of it without forgive me forgive me. I mean, so my brothers and
sisters, let's take them on seriously. It doesn't mean quit your sins only for Ramadan, but quit
		

			your sins completely with the promise that we don't want to go back to them. Your life will change
we will solve the problems of the Ummah in sha Allah and we will be able to earn the best of reward
and the most beautiful connection with Allah subhanho wa Taala it's not a joke. Ramadan is a huge
gift, it might just be our last Ramadan, and this dua Allahumma Boliviana Ramadan, it shows that
it's not in our hands whether we are going to witness the first night of Ramadan or not. And this
might be the last Ramadan. But worse than that is it might be a time where we don't even see this
Ramadan even though it's one God one day away or two, and the process and I've never prayed to
		

			prolong his life except for the month of Ramadan. I have very good news to share with you and with
the viewers, since you spoke about those who happen to die before rootless Ramadan and it is not in
our hands. Somebody might say what about us, you may make plans but it just happened that somebody
would expire before Ramadan or halfway through. So the good news is, the intention by itself in this
condition is sufficient. If you have planned it, you get a reward on your intention whoever lands
and intends to do a good deed, then something out of his or her control happened that they couldn't
do it the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him said he will be recorded by Allah for him.
		

			As a full good deed exactly not missing a single word. So, what we need to do is plan in 10 How
would you like to make this Ramadan better than before? And rather make this Ramadan you have this
Ramadan, so Correct, correct Nisha. So for me the preparation for Ramadan is not just for the 30
days of Ramadan but rather to utilize the 30 days for what is to come later on. So, the desert of
Taqwa Sana all the good deeds, Allah, Allah to answer your question, if you remember the Hadith in
which the Prophet sallallahu sallam said, Whoever observes 40 days the prayers of 40 days in Jamar
attending the very first that we are clear of haram achieve freedom from the Almighty Allah we gave
		

			them through guarantees, number one farfel will never touch the flesh. And number two, that they
will never become hypocrites freedom from hypocrisy and freedom from hellfire. I've been
contemplating and thinking about this hadith a lot. And I just realized when I started practicing
that the first 10 days will kind of struggle. You know, with all the business that we had and the
recording and the school and teaching and you got to make certain before you hear the other, you're
already on the way to the machine because you don't want to miss the camera. After 40 days, well you
know what happens? You don't need to set up your alarm you don't need to set up your psychology say
		

			about building habits so when you're talking about the rehabilitation and all of that, if you
utilize Ramadan as it should be Marshall serve you graduate. So when he took me a little eat that
Allah says to complete the prescribed time, that itself is a habit building time as well. Where by
you becoming punctual for so many days. It will help you build the habit of being punctual beyond
those many days. It's amazing.
		

			I just want to draw your attention to the beautiful fruit on the street. Looks like
		

			jackfruit is just a draft choice. Yes, it's amazing. You know, just for the information of the
brothers and sisters this is in Uganda at the Serena hotel if you look at the waterfall behind the
scene, there is a beautiful waterfall if you want to zoom in slightly to that waterfall. While the
sound is beautiful. This is places called the Pearl of Africa, Kampala, Uganda and Wallahi it's
amazing must you look at this fruit you know if you open this if it's a little bit sticky and you
know the jacket does it Yeah, you know my wife every time we will travel to a place like that or she
watches what are we have been just says imagine this is in the dunya What about what Allah is the
		

			big one?
		

			So he was mashallah, mashallah if you like that, if you like what you see, this is nothing compared
to Allah as a gem mashallah, as the Prophet sallallahu sallam said, Allah has prepared for the
windows of heaven. What no I have ever seen what no ear has ever heard of, and what have never ever
crossed anybody's mind. It's amazing. It is Allah's gift to the believers for their patience. Be
patient, it's not gonna be long before we meet him. Subhan Allah was so more sub Allah. First thing
is all about patience, patience, patience. You know there is a verse in the Quran where Allah says
was to you know, be somebody was Salah Et Al Baqarah Nam seek help through patience and prayer. It
		

			is so amazing, so amazing. My plan is to speak throughout Ramadan about this verse in a series
inshallah which I want to call dealing with difficult be
		

			focused on the difficulties of achieving patience. Yes, you know, dealing with resisting prisons,
the reason is, we need sub and we need to pray. And you know, Allah says in the Holika, baritone
Illa Allah machine, you need who sure in order to be able to achieve your sub and Salah and then who
are those would who undeniable known or unknown Moloch or a beam or anomaly Rajon those who have
conviction that they are going to meet with Allah subhanho wa Taala and return to him you know, we
talk about this month of Ramadan inshallah we will continue to speak more and more about this
beautiful month of Ramadan. But this episode is really an encouragement for you and I to take
		

			Ramadan seriously make the most of it and inshallah we hope that we can benefit from it. If you have
any closing thoughts before we conclude, you know, it has been very common and it is repeated in the
beginning of every Ramadan but some speakers who might not be fully aware of the fact that this is
not true, where people say Ramadan is divided into three portions. Yes, the first 1/3 is for mercy.
The second is for forgiveness. And the third is for
		

			He leaves from hellfire. This is not quite true. As a matter of fact, the entire month of Ramadan is
		

			about forgiveness and healing from
		

			all of it from the first day to the last the first night. So when some years ago I also quoted this
hadith, which is the if to say that it's divided into three like this like this and someone has
someone highlighted, we can go this way. Okay? Someone highlighted to say, You know what, it's not
accurate. It's not so Hey, and then I clarify the to the people to say that actually the mercy the
forgiveness and the freedom from the fire is from the first day to the last day. All of Ramadan has
all of those qualities.
		

			A lot of cinema see, when he left he he Hirotaka, Weatherly, Caffee, poo Lila, you let him on every
single night of Ramadan, Allah will release a list of names, those of the luckiest people ever those
whom Allah will declare, so and so and so and so are permanently free from hellfire. Do as you wish,
which means they will be guarded and protected by Allah again is sending and again shirt, so they
all die in a state of belief. What much is that means also is if your life has changed Ramadan,
chances are perhaps your name might have been just written. Because if your life didn't change and,
and sin is being facilitated for you, in your mind, and by shaytan, it means that Allah didn't, you
		

			know, favor you by allowing you to change your life. Maybe you were not serious enough about
Ramadan. Everyone's question is, why can't we know whose name is in the list? Imagine if you knew
whose name it was. Sit back and
		

			some of the youngsters once in one school that I visited. We were talking about the 313 who
participated in the Battle of butter and I said these people have Jana. Yeah. So the one youngster I
asked, if you knew that you were from Jana, what would you do?
		

			You don't want to hear what he said here. It was about how he would enjoy the sins stuff that Allah
because he knows that he is going to Jannah and I said these are young kids. Imagine how they're
thinking worldly the best of all mankind after the prophets, the Companions who were granted Jana in
their lifetime, they never sit back and realize it was harder.
		

			Hakuna Abdon
		

			Should I not be a slave who is great grateful? There is an answer to this. I wouldn't rather ask
somebody what if you know that you're already given a glass sliding, guaranteed you will enter
Heaven what would you do? Rather I would throw at them the Hadith, in which interview Salah Salem
quoted Almighty Allah It's a sacred Hadith. The Almighty Allah says mata carova iavi Devi che in had
the lamb and laughter to Allah will may resemble rbds Carnival lamb Noah philia had that okay, but
the catch is in the following segment, they either have to move on to some holiday Yes, now we have
a surah who led the Euro Sohrabi where the who led the arrow to shall be her original who let em
		

			shallow which means there is nothing that my servant can do to come close to me better than
fulfilling what I have ordained upon him, like the five daily prayers fasting during Ramadan
		

			and then the area of competition. So the first area is for everyone you must do an area which is
optional. Now I feel super regulatory acts of worship. My servant will continue to draw nearer and
nearer to me through offering these voluntary acts of worship pertaining to the prayers of fasting
Osaka, Osaka, until I love him and when when I love him, once Allah loves you trust it, you will not
even think about committing sins that's why the 40 days prayers the training you would fall in love
with a prayer you didn't look at it as a burden may
		

			very interesting connection so the between the month of Ramadan and Jen no so the I have the main
purpose of Ramadan itself. Yeah, you already know I'm no kuchibhotla cootie ballerina public con la
la Come on. So taco is the main purpose why Ramadan was revealed. But there is an idea or Surya will
among Feroz or Jana 10. Ardo has similar to a lot of or a debt limit. So Jana was prepared from
talking on Ramadan was a platform for us to attain. And guess what, whenever the Quran talks about
Jana, it is always preceded by gaining forgiveness first, such as in Surah Hadith sabko in mo Filati
mirabito Jeanette in Doha this summer y'all are worried that the lady in Amman will be late. So, the
		

			Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said lennier Tula ahead
		

			Como Janata we Amelie
		

			none of you simply are entitled to intergender because of how much good deeds you do, they said even
you Oh prophet of Allah because he used to stand on his feet would sweat is it even me? I listen if
Allah has mercy for Allah so this forgiveness which is a condition to step forward to gain taqwa in
order to be invited to enter Jana is a Ramadan. From the first night tomorrow night might be the
first month of Ramadan that's been kept on saying take it seriously. Nobody would take it seriously
my brothers and sisters Ramadan is not a month of resting and relaxing and chilling and eating at
night and going out with your friends and she shining and doing haram stuff and whatever Did you say
		

			she shines she is a verb now
		

			so I can tell you one thing we must make sure minimum don't do haram but maybe more than that love
some Muslim Allah he you know what the most Hello as you said
		

			earlier on, you mentioned I said man, let's find the Allah listen are craving for some reason.
		

			We need to eat healthy. People are crazy about their health. But Islam tells you from the beginning
your health is an Amana and you need to do whatever you're doing in order to protect your health so
that you can get strengthened to do the above of Allah is an act of worship on its own now anyway,
we have lengthened and prolong this particular session because of its importance and the
significance of time and because of the beauty of this beautiful place mashallah it's such a lovely
place so the audience we owe them that Ramadan Mubarak everyone advanced me Allah subhanaw taala
except for we wish you all a blessed month and may Allah grant us the ability to make use of it and
		

			may we don't ever forget to make dua for our brothers and sisters in
		

			Ramadan young
		

			nursing and victory Allahu
		

			Allah Amma the living Ramadan
