Mufti Menk – We Don’t Appreciate It Until We Lose It

There are sicknesses

that would be cured

by you reading the verses.

You are cured from the tampering of Shaitan.

Ayatul Kursi is very powerful.

Do you read it every day, every morning,

every evening?

When you repeat these verses

with sincerity, Allah says they are so powerful

that the jinn will not come near. Allahu

Akbar.

Allahu Akbar.

I was in Indonesia recently

and I made mention of a point

of a magician, a lady

from Russia.

In an interview online that is there,

she was asked,

when you're doing your magic and when you're

trying to do affect people with all types

of magic,

are there any people that you find it

difficult to actually affect?

She says, yes. The muslims.

The practicing muslims who pray 5 times a

day. These are the words of a non

muslim.

Go and check it out. It's there.

Why? She explains that when they pray,

there is a strength

and there is like a dome around them

you just can't get through. Allahu Akbar. Allahu

Akbar. Wallahi, these are non muslims telling you.

And you you you think that this Quran

we have been blessed with is something minor.

It is the most amazing gift that you

have, but you don't do Qadr of it.

You don't appreciate

it.

Sometimes you have a spouse, a husband or

a wife. The best that you could ever

have had.

But because you don't appreciate them, you lose

them.

It happens. When you've lost them, you say,

oh, you know what? I lost.

Too late. Too late.

Sometimes you have a gift of Allah, a

job.

You don't appreciate

that Allah has blessed you

and you start dillydallying and you don't take

it seriously and you lose your job.

Allah says, I gave you.

You were the one who turned away from

me. You were the one who didn't want,

who did not appreciate.

How many times do you say like Alhamdu

walaqashukruya

wajidoo jallajalalal.

How

many times do you say to you is

all praise, O Allah, To you is all

thanks, O Allah? How do you expect to

heal

from your

sicknesses, your diseases, your weaknesses, your difficulties, your

hardships? And every one of us has all

of those.

I have difficulties and you do.

The level of the difficulty is different. But

I have hardship.
