send our greetings and love interpretations beloved, every Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam who
is pious and pure family to his companions and also followers from now until the end of time. We
		
00:00:31 --> 00:01:08
			beseech Allah in this time of hardship, we beseech Allah collectively Allah alleviate as from the
tribulation, this test that you have put before us, grant us to be for this this to be averted from
us smell lucky, us and our families, our loved ones safe, our health, our risk of sustenance, our

Allah have mercy on those who are going through hardship and alleviate the suffering may Allah have
mercy on those who have passed away. And Allah subhanaw taala bring us through this this better
people and made in those soon beat Nilaya along with him that he left. Today is the third of April
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:44
			2020 It is the for us here in Cape Town. It is one week into the lockdown that we've experienced. It
is the third Jamar has Panama now that the massage would have been have been closing Just on that
point many people wouldn't met it Hadith with Rob solicit the person who neglects to does not attend
three Jamal's in a row consecutively. Then the severe is as if though he says he's excommunicated
from Islam. It's one of those severe things. Please note that we have not missed a Juma for all
those of us who would have loved to be in the masjid who would have been in the masjid had it not
been for the closure, then of course, this is out of our hands and Allah subhanaw taala Nila will
		
00:01:44 --> 00:02:19
			give us an even better tomorrow than the one that we have attended. So at home, you're making a
thought there is no other doesn't mean when the markets open make these tumors up, in fact, to be
certain for us well, Hamdulillah. So it's been three weeks that we've not been able to be together,
we've watched as this pandemic spread. It is something which is foremost on all of our minds and
Subhanallah, we've seen that this, the number of infections globally has reached 1 million now, this
is a big milestone. And the right as we can see is increasing continuously. More than 50,000 people
have died. I'm sure you are familiar with the numbers here in South Africa for as 100. Now we've
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:59
			been fortunate so far, it has been quieter than expected. And we pray that we are we are being
fortunate in this regard. On the other hand, we need to prepare for the worst, as many of the
doctors around the world have said you have this period of calm with the hospitals are empty. People
are not coming to the hospitals unless it's an emergency. And so you'll find that the hospitals are
empty, bracing themselves for one on one all the beloved, protect this influx of sick people. And we
hope that South Africa is finally we will be spared this the worst of it. We know that there are
many, many people that are not able to, to protect themselves. There many people there are many
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:02
			people who have compromised immune system. So those of us who
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:45
			you know, we continue making our DUA and we continue taking the precautions we need to do our best
and then we leave the meta in Allah's hands. And without a doubt, you know, watching this event,
this crisis unfold. This is the greatest test globally for us as people, certainly for the last 5060
years since World War Two. This is the greatest challenge seen countries coming to a halt. And
therefore for us, it's something that we need to take, take take very, very seriously. Without
without a doubt this is a test it's a tribulation. And today's goodbyes about how do we respond to
this? How do we you know, process this and move forward from that into the sixth Surah of the Quran.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:04:23
			Allah subhanho wa Taala gives a number of verses very interesting verses that are so applicable to
us. We read these verses time and time again. But now that we in it, we understand. So lots of
answers in aisle number 14 of pseudonym. Allah says kool aid them in Atal Kumada bulai attacked
Comosa Allah says have you say Have you considered Have you thought if the if a punishment of Allah
was to come upon us, or even the salah meaning Kiama itself would to come a rate of light and I want
to inquire from Saudi thing, would you then turn to anyone and beseech anyone and ask for assistance
from anyone besides Allah the Master of the Universe? Would you go back to anyone? Allah answers and
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:59
			says both el that are all now the actual matter their own ad in share with unsewn Amata Shrek when
Allah says, surely you will Allah answers that in times of hardship, in times of extreme calamity,
you will turn back and ask Allah alone. And this what's beautiful about this idea is always speaking
to both the Muslim and non Muslim, the one who comes to check the one who has never ever turned to
Allah. Allah says if you neglected me your entire life and now that you see the punishment or even
the Tsar, Allah says, You come in and you turn to Me, for He actually former to the owner 11 I only
move overseas I promise you I will remove that
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:40
			at which you asked me to remove, I will take it away I will remove this virus, inshallah if I
choose. So, what unsewn I'm actually going and you will surely forget all those things that you have
prioritized all the partners you've made with Allah, you will forget them and hopefully you will
come back to Allah. So then Allah subhanaw taala continues and he says, when I got out of Santa Isla
macabre Lika, that surely many, many times too many nations before you before us Allah has sent
messengers and books for us now whom he was the raw de la Lomita Dharan, Allah says and we seize
them, we took hold of them with misfortune, with calamity with hardship with poverty, all kinds of
		
00:05:40 --> 00:06:18
			misfortune, Allah says there are many countless nations before you that experienced hardship that
Allah sent to them. Why? And this is the reason why I was you know, it's a profound reason almost
allow me that our own so that they may humble themselves so that they may come back down to earth,
so that they may remember Allah subhanaw taala The purpose was never to cause pain, the purpose was
never to, to inflict harm, it was meant as as something positive that they may come back to Allah.
Then Allah continues, if we do not come back, what is the consequence? Allah says Falola if jobs are
home sooner tomorrow, so why then if they did not, did they not come back? Did you not humble
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:57
			themselves when the punishment or the tribulation befall them when this hardship came to them, when
Allah sent him this hardship they did not come back, well, I can follow boom. And then on the other
hand, instead of coming back to Allah, the hearts the hearts became hard and it became sealed was in
an oval shape on my candle Yeah. And shape one made it seem that which they were doing as trivial as
small they did not realize that reminder Allah sending them a reminder to change their lifestyles.
They did not change, they continue as it was. And so Allah says, number one, based on that their
hearts became sealed off became hard for them man, so And Allah says, And when they forgot, they did
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:38
			not take heed. Mirvac you will be the look take heed of the reminder that we seem to them Subhana
look how Allah subhanaw taala punishes Allah says He punishes for Tana, Allah him Allah Bakula che
in Allah says, Then I opened up for them all the doors of everything, all kinds of good and money
and luxury and enjoyment all of this, I opened it completely for them had either a fighter who will
be ma who, until that they enjoy themselves, they were at the height of the immune amusement and
happiness has now home button for either home or pretty soon, we seize them at that moment of, of
complete, forgetfulness in enjoying the money enjoying the wealth, feeling or pump and powerful.
		
00:07:39 --> 00:08:20
			Allah says at that point I seize them, meaning was paranoia to claim caused him to die for either
movies, and then then to be to become the Spirit. Now this is this this group of is a very, very
significant for us. What we learn is a principle that Allah subhanaw taala, that when we, when we
forget about him, then when we turn away, when we live a life that is heedless, Allah does not hold
us account immediately. Rather, he sends reminders. And sometimes the reminders are small in all of
us our lives, we see relatives that pass away, we should be reminded with you know, every time we
get sick, we should be reminded of, you know, of our health, about all of our deaths. Every time we
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:53
			go past the cemetery. We know this is where we're going to end up we should be reminded by these
things, we listen to the hottie we get a lecture. And it reminds us sometimes we don't take heed of
the reminder. And then Allah subhanaw taala scenes, bigger reminders for us in South Africa, for
example, a year or two ago, we had the drought and the short of you know, what should have been a
wake up call for many of us. And really, and sometimes this is really at the mercy of Allah, he
seems a global reminder and this will be finalized, we see these one of the biggest events that
we've seen in the last 50 6070 years. And this when you see the entire world shutting down, Allah
		
00:08:53 --> 00:09:32
			says this is a reminder about almost Granger it's a reminder about the purpose of life. It's a
reminder for everyone to look at our lives and reassess are we on the right path? Are we are we
continue as we were, we'll be going to end up and so it's up to us to see how we respond. And Allah
says, when we respond by humbling ourselves and besieging him and turning back to him, he says, I
will remove that which is that hardship. Its purpose was to remind you when you when you remember
that Allah will remove it, no problem. But if we do not take heed and we in our lives continue as it
was we continue enjoying ourselves we continue living the life that we will always doing. Then Allah
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:59
			says he will unfortunately he will close our hearts of Spirit He will make us follow Shekhar will
make it seem like our lives, our sins are small, and then Allah will open up all the doors of
goodness and all the enjoyment and this actually is a worst punishment. So this is shows you the
sort of it shows you that a tribulation might actually be a blessing and a a you know the opening of
goodness of Baraka or Baraka, the opening of money and wealth and power this method
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:18
			Should it be a punishment? So, how we respond and how we come out of it is very important. All of us
are being tested, we are sitting in an exam, and this Coronavirus is a test that we are all taking
together, how we respond now is really the answer is really the important part for us to do. So how
should we, how should we respond to this?
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:59
			So, number one, of course, we have to increase anybody as Allah says we did or are we returned back
to me make we, we increasingly by that and we'll talk more about that inshallah. Number two, what's
important is for us to, to avoid sin, we have to all of us collectively must be you know, I speak to
myself first and foremost in my family, we can look at our lives, none of us are perfect, some or
some of it even the best of us can improve, and even the worst of us, this opportunity to get close
to Allah. And so we should look at our lives and try to avoid the sins that we didn't have the love
this this, what was it? What's what's what's wonderful about the situation is Allah has caused many
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:36
			of the Haram things that we're doing to automatically be closed down. We can't go out we can't go to
places which are haram anymore. Insects Pinilla, we're very proud. And maybe, you know, it's fine.
Well, maybe this is the reason why. So Africa at the moment, our our curve is not as high as we
expected. One of the reasons could be that's Pamela, we're the only country in the world that
completely banned alcohol during this time. So immediately, we see this, of course, it wasn't taken
from an Islamic perspective. But as this is pleasing to Allah that a society turns away from
something which displeases Allah. And we pray that this is one of the reasons why that these that we
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:57
			are not seeing the full effects of this. So Allah has made it easy for us, given back our time,
given back our family time that we can increasingly better and avoid, avoid the sins that we we do.
There is, of course, an opportunity now that we see an increase in certain sense that we weren't
doing before. So now we are at home, of the things that we do
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:39
			have the big sense that you could do now of course not following the instructions, putting other
people's lives in danger. This is a major sin really to go out against the instructions of the of
the government instructions of the people, anyone who does this without a valid reason, then spinal
it you're sending. Number two, you see the while our lives our physical lives are limited. Our
social life, our digital lives are really getting out of control. And through this past week, I've
received so many disturbing messages, you know, fake news, false Hadith, false interpretations of
the Quran, distorting the words of ALLAH to conspiracy theories. And so people are falling into,
		
00:12:39 --> 00:13:19
			into into errors with regards to with regards to social media and the digital, the digital
footprint. And we are now actually sending online, even though physically we might not be sending
our physical bodies, but online, we're doing many things to haram. So just take these ayat and these
Hadith into accounts of number one spreading false information, fake news online, I don't know why
some people go through the effort to actually type up something which is false, or record a message
that is false, and they see it and cause mess, harm in what they're doing. And others simply receive
it without assessing it without verifying it, they amplify it and they pass on Allah says to you and
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:59
			me oh you will believe if a fast if a untrusted or an evil person or someone that you cannot trust
comes to you with any news thing verified. First verified Allah standing in the Quran is your
responsibility. Whether you get a hadith whether you get a lecture, whether you get anything medical
related, first verify if it's true or not. least you should harm people in ignorance, and afterwards
you become regretful of what you've done. And when you will, when you share that on, you will harm
people And subhanAllah you can actually cause people to die by sending out incorrect information. So
this is called commands from Allah. It's a major sin, to share false news even without English or
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:35
			even, you know, unintentionally, but you did not you did not verify it. The prophets of salaam says
to as a hadith which by now I'm sure many of you have heard, many, many scholars are repeating this
hadith time and time again. Because what we do is we forward as received folders receive without
assisting without testing it without you know, checking it out if it's true or not. The profit is
easy enough for someone to be considered a liar. By simply sharing or speaking, everything that he
has anything you receive, you just convey it and relate it to without verifying it without assessing
it. It is enough for you to become a liar like that. So be very, very careful what you say. Allah
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:59
			has given us a golden opportunity to take away many of the Haram that we we interact physically the
places we go to the people we see Allah is confined to our homes which are safe. Now the one place
which is very dangerous is our cell phones in particular our our TVs, our laptops, shut those things
down avoided. Use it only for good things and inshallah immunity don't have much
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:39
			Should haram around you see, normal of the allowance is a very profound statement. So profound I
felt that even have to I don't really, really update my facebook status. But this, this this this
statement from him was so profound that I felt, you know, it's amazing when you find the previous
predecessors, they go through similar stuff like us and he says, take a lot of key and caution in
times of tribulation. Be very careful because if you say an incorrect word during tribulation during
a crisis, it can be as devastating as a sword, something you put out there can cause such a panic or
cause such a some other person to believe that someone could die in this industry village and you
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:53
			will be held accountable for that. So be very, very careful what you receive and what you share.
There is no harm in you notching it, you will not be held accountable for what you do not share. So
if you feel it's safe, that I don't want to share things even better for you Rila.
		
00:15:54 --> 00:16:34
			So that is with regards to fake news and false information we see I've also received lots of people
sending me videos or audios about conspiracy theories. That is a great plot that this is part of a
great scheme all of this is fake what you see on the news, there isn't such thing as Coronavirus,
people have gone so far to say that the entire thing is a made up thing all the governments of the
world or the hospitals are in it together. And there's so many theories about about what this is. So
analog, you know, you have to verify the information that you're seeing you have to verify it. And
if you are seeing something of an Islamic nature, make sure you are either you are yourself an
		
00:16:34 --> 00:17:13
			expert in that in what you are seeing or you are trusted and if you are seeing things of a dunya
nature, so people are telling you, for example, eat this so drink that and it will equal kill
Coronavirus all that this thing does not harm you or somebody else you know the Wi Fi or the 5g out
there is causing harm, I don't want to get into the 5g conspiracy theory out there. Educate yourself
with regards to the dunya. And it's not enough for you to watch a YouTube video to be educated, go
and study and learn some of either the dunya sciences or the Islamic sciences before you share these
things because you are causing harm in what you're seeing. You're causing harm in what you're saying
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:52
			these conspiracy theories panela sometimes people get so caught up in it, that they become detached
from reality, and that they actually cause more harm and can actually result in death. So be careful
about these conspiracy theories, in terms of tribulation, you know, the Prophet SAW Salem reminds us
and He gives us certain guidance with regards to times of tribulation. And he says that in a hadith
in piety that the one who remains out of the Tribulation who stays at home the one who sets is
better the one who stands the one who stands is better than the one who is walking and running. That
if you stay at home, if you stay indoors, you stay avoid the tribulation, it is better for you. And
		
00:17:52 --> 00:18:30
			anyone who exposes himself to it will get involved in it, whether physically or online, you will be
sucked into it and you will be harmed by it. So avoid these things, avoid these discussions and save
yourself and look after yourself. And that is what is required of you in times of tribulation. One
of the big big themes that I'm getting in terms of these conspiracy theories are these question
marks you're getting Hadith. And I add that are being shared and people are asking is this Kiana is
this always seeing the coming the end of times? I'm always seeing the end of times. And so part of
my lecture today is to talk a little bit about Kiana you know is this Qiyamah how serious is this as
		
00:18:30 --> 00:19:02
			a as a sign from Allah so don't doubt it is a tribulation it is a reminder from Allah. It is
something for us to take note of is serious. It's not something that we should just ignore. It's not
every day we see something like this. But is it enough for us to even go to that point because I've
seen a video club recirculating that saying that when you know before Kiama arrives * will stop
and Amara will stop. And as for HANA logo seen, the Saudi government is closed the Haram there is no
more morale, there's no more hygiene. So clearly this is an indication that Kiama is coming. You
watch the five minute clip part of a much bigger video clip or part of a much bigger discussion.
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:40
			This is not the first time that the hydrogen o'mara has been suspended as you read history, you'll
find this happening before. So it's for us to be a little more critical in what we receive. But this
happened before Abdullah bin was one of the very, very early conflicts of Islam after the Prophet
passed away he settled in, in Kufa, in in Iraq. And he was with his students in his house and then
on one of the days a a raid sandstorm, you know, very strange kind of sandstone blew over the city
and the entire sky turned read. And one of the person one of the students sitting they jumped up and
he said The hour has come this is Kiama look at the sky, you know, the world is coming to an end.
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:59
			And he was sitting reclining, he was relaxing. And then he stepped forward. And he said, This is not
the end of the world. This is not the last hour. Rather, a few things need to happen before Kiama
comes. So let's before we talk about karma, let's understand what we know from the Hadith. What do
we know about karma? And then we can assess is this something
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:38
			And we should worry about at least Kiama. So Abdullah was ordered on the line then explains to the
his, his students that they are science sort of steps that must be reached milestones must be
reached before the coming of Kiama the end of the world. And some of those signs up clearly they
have come, clearly they have passed, we are beyond them, and others are still to come. So of the
signs of Kiama. We know that Qiyamah is close. When the province Salam, when he arrived, he when he
was commissioned with his Nova, he told us that me and the editing of tianma is like this and he
raised he and he put together his index finger and his middle finger meaning put them together the
		
00:20:38 --> 00:21:15
			different the difference between those two fingers is me and Kiama Qiyamah and I are very, very
close together. In the Quran, Allah says that the moon has flipped and the PSA has come near one of
the big signs of the coming of km was that the moon was split in half the time going to be solar.
Another big sign of the advent of TMS is the death of Nabisco syndrome, and the end of Revelation,
remember this entire, you know, the entire purpose of life from the beginning of every item until
the last man was that Allah will send us revelation will send us books, to guide us to turn us back
to him. The fact that this entire system of revelation came to an end with the demise of the Nabil
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:53
			Salam tells us we are at the end of the story. We are really at the last chapter of mankind. And
it's been 1400 years since that happened. Other signs and abuses on you know signs that the prophets
have predicted that said before Qiyamah what would happen we would conquer Jerusalem. This happened
in the timeless Sahaba that Persia would be conquered that Constantinople Istanbul would be
conquered that was the biggest city in the world. And that was conquered about six 700 years ago by
the Ottoman Empire. There are also many, many minus signs many of us must have heard this before.
There's a whole genre of Islamic knowledge which talks about the minus signs. In a very famous
		
00:21:53 --> 00:22:34
			Hadith the Prophet Salam comm is asked by GPGPU astronomical solar winds Kiama gonna come and the
Prophet says neither you OG video no i we both don't know when he is going to come it is something
which is hidden, and only Allah knows the coming of Qiyamah. But Allah has given us hints or signs
to remind us or to make us aware of the coming up of pm and there are many, many dozens, many dozens
of minus signs that the Prophet Allah has predicted of them. For example, He sees the owl will not
be established until the Arabs are the Bedouin people will compete in building very tall buildings
as a very explicit sign of Qiyamah. It is also something very relevant to us knowing that in the
		
00:22:34 --> 00:23:12
			Middle East today, the tallest buildings in the world are the provinces of Ghana says of the signs
of Kiana is that lying, particularly in business transactions will become very commonplace it will
become the norm and the markets will become very close together, the markets will become very
congested and close together. The profits is that our will not come until time, the value of time or
the time appears to go very quickly. Meaning a year will pass like just a month so much things would
happen within a year that it can seem like it just flew by and all of us can relate to that. The
prophets of salaam says from the signs of the hour is that knowledge will diminish that great
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:50
			scholars will die ignorance will prevail it will be such a mess scale of ignorance, even though they
will be an eating people can look at it, but they will be ignorant of the dean of the dunya you will
find fornication. Zina will be open will be prevalent wherever you look for halal and never have we
lived in a time with a click of a button we can see everything we can be, you know, anything that
you want to see, it's in the palm of your hand literally Subhanallah no nation or group of people in
the history of mankind experienced what we are experienced in that. And of course, not all of these
things are bad of the things and the resources that you'd find that women increased more than that
		
00:23:50 --> 00:24:24
			of men. It's not that negative sign of kamma there's some positive signs of the coming of camera
like the conquest of Jerusalem. So good things, one of the things also that there will be more women
than men up to the point of 50 to one in terms of this hadith, we have not reached that benchmark
another a very clear sign of Kiama the promise on says mosques will be beautified will be made very
beautiful and the voices will be raised in it will be amplified in it. This could be talking about
the microphones and the speakers that we have another sign the prophecies and says that the Muslims
will be vast in number they will it'll be you know towards in every corner of the world to find the
		
00:24:24 --> 00:24:59
			Ummah but the value of the Muslim Omar believe me click the foam in the seat will be pushed down and
our lands will be invaded by our enemies and they will take from our resources and take from our
lands like birds eating and the Subhan Allah we see it and this is perhaps was more prevalent in the
time of colonized colonizers. You know a century or two ago, the prophet speaks about a time when
the Riba will become so rampant that even those who don't indulge in it will be exposed to which
harm it's smoke, that the time will come close to Kiama. When we will not have a Gemma they will no
longer be a unified Ummah and we will not have
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:36
			leader. And we know that since the demise of the Ottoman Empire, about 100 years ago, for the first
time in our history, we have not had a Khalifa, these are big, big signs that are occurring. There
are other signs that are very cryptic, Allah, Allah what they mean, they could be speaking about our
time they could be speaking about another time. For example, the resources is close to the time of
kamma people will come to the masjid, riding very comfortable settles, and they will dismount at the
door of the magic, you know, they will they would travel in a very comfortable form of
transportation for this because Allah Anna and the prophets, Allah says that women of that time they
		
00:25:36 --> 00:26:11
			will be wearing clothing, but there'll be naked again before if we look at the pictures of people
the way they dressed up in philosophy, 60 years, we haven't seen the level of nakedness as we see
today. The prophecies of this is in the by him in his hand, my life is that I will not be
established until the beasts and people will communicate animals. So there's something which perhaps
has not yet occurred and the end of a man's work an issue like any spy, will be able to speak to
him. So you will have a device we will be able to communicate with his family at home in his
absence, could this be a cell phone could this be talking about you know, wireless communication
		
00:26:11 --> 00:26:30
			Allah annum, this is something which is in the Hadith. So very clear signs which is talking about
now. Those are all the minor signs. And there are many, many more minor signs, some of them which
have clearly occurred, most of them actually have occurred, we see them being prevalent, and they
all feel quite a number of them that have not yet occurred. For example, the
		
00:26:31 --> 00:27:11
			there will be some great treasure that is found in the Euphrates River, this is something which has
just spoken about has not yet occurred. There are a few other minor signs that have not occurred.
Then of course, there is the major major signs of Kiama, the 18 big signs when they come to us no
doubt the Kiama is basically at hand. And that when these come these things size of Kiama they are
like the Hadith speaks about like a pregnant woman on the verge of giving birth. So this is when you
see these 10 signs know that the end of the world is is it's a it's a concrete it's a foregone
conclusion. And these 10 signs, the promises His Keanna will never occur until you see 10 signs
		
00:27:11 --> 00:27:51
			number one and this is not an order the sahabi listed them as he remembered them but they're not in
the order. So the smoke there will be a smoke that will come the the coming of the gel, the coming
of a beast of the earth, the rising of the sun from the waist, the descent of Nabi Isa the return of
the Messiah, the release of yet huge, huge, and in three big landslides or three big you know,
sinkholes that will occur in the world, one in the east, one in the West, and one in the Middle
East. And then there will be the last of the signs is a huge fire that will push the remainder of
humanity to a certain to a certain area and once they occur, they will come down like beads. Now if
		
00:27:51 --> 00:28:27
			we go back to that hadith of of the loving soul, remember we spoke about the Hadith we even Masada,
the Allah and was sitting with the students and the sky became an Eid and one of the students jumped
up and he said, Yeah, Allah, it's Kiama and Elon Musk was acknowledged. It's not Kiana. And then he
went on to explain some of the things that must occur here. So Abdullah Massoud, first began in the
speech spoke about that they will be tribulation spoke about they will be a great war in the Middle
East, particularly in Syria and Iraq with European people. And from that we know many other Hadith
tells us that they will be a come a time when the OMA is disunited, they are divided, there will be
		
00:28:27 --> 00:29:03
			a lot of conflicts happening in the Middle East, and we will not have a leader and so the leader
will arise is called Imam Mahdi. And he will, you know, the army of Mr. Homma. He will fight with
the Europeans and he will be successful in defeating this great army in the Middle East and a lot of
the conflict or the conflict that the Hadith speak about is happening in Syria and in the in the
Palestine area. And it's you know, could this will be similar to the conflict we see today. This
area has always had battles, it could be something which is now it could be something happening in
50 years, or it could be in 100,000 years, Allahu Allah, Allah knows best. But in this area, there
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:39
			will be a great great war called the Malema who the the Great War that will occur in the Middle East
and Mr. Mallya will be in charge at that time, the Muslims will win even Maddie will win, but in the
gel will be released and the gel will be released and he will remain for 4040 days one day will be
like a year one they will be like a month one there'll be like a week and the other remaining days
will be normal days. And this will be the biggest weakness there'll be no tribulation was in the job
just the worst was the level before mankind the coming of the job and he will remain on the earth
and you will cause mischief and havoc and lead people astray Subhan Allah we look at this crisis and
		
00:29:39 --> 00:30:00
			how people are completely confused. People are in hysteria. Imagine when the gel comes Allah Allah
protect us and then following the gel soon after his coming Allah will seem to me is also in serious
Panama everything happening so do not want to get easy for that land that is going through so much
at the moment. And maybe Isa will be will come down. You will defeat the gel and the Messiah the age
of the Messiah will be
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:34
			Again, he will rule for 70 years, and it will be the best years, you know, in terms of the history
of the world, there'll be no fighting anymore, there'll be no animosity, the whole world will be
under one religion, and he will rule the entire world and be inside a system. And it will be peace
and prosperity for seven years. And when you do Jamba Juice will be will be released from the area,
they will break through the barrier, and they will completely destroy the world and all of humanity
will will perish basically, at the hand, except for the very few people that will survive are hiding
away, including the SRS from the Messiah and a few of his people will survive. And yet as usual
		
00:30:34 --> 00:31:11
			majority will be killed. But Allah span through a disease basically a small disease, a tiny disease,
who will destroy them and kill them. And then nobody Isa will and the remainder of the believers and
the people will come out and humanity will begin again, slowly. And then at some point a breeze and
this could be the smoke which speaks about in the Quran, one of the signs of Qiyamah a smoke will
come and will take the souls of those who have Eman that there is none left. Even in the biblical
scriptures. They talk about the rapture, where there's a breeze will come and the believers will be
taken away. And then what is left of humanity will just be the worst of the worst. And then Kiama
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:48
			will only come upon the worst of people. And so the prophets of Islam, I mean a hadith he says the
Sahaba that Kiana will not come until people return to idol worship. And one of the Sahaba says, but
is it not that Islam will prevail in the Middle East? That is not that Islam will, you know, will
remove idol worship and the provinces? Yes, it will happen. But eventually things will occur, that
will result in all the believers dying, this breach will come and what will be remaining is only the
worst of people, and it's upon them that the Trumpet will be blown. And that would be the that is
when Kiana would come so often to be sent off to the believers or taken away through this breeze,
		
00:31:48 --> 00:32:24
			the rest of the signs of Keanna will be experienced by people that will no longer remember Allah
will not worship Allah anymore. And so these are basically the steps. So if we look at this virus
Subhanallah it is surely one of the big events that we need to take note of it is something for us a
personal reminder, is it one of the signs mentioned in the hadith is no sign of the Hadith that
speaks about this. But it is the prophet of the genres of the Hadith, you find the resources as we
reach closer to Chiara we have more and more of these big tribulations that affect the whole of
humanity, they become more frequent. And this is of course, setting the stage for the coming up of
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:58
			the journey and becoming going to beat yourself releasing a lot of political point is this is not
Kiama. We're not quite yet. And however, asking with this Kiama or not, is besides what is
important. Does it even matter if this is Kiama? So we have Hadith where men come to the Prophet
Salam and he says, the arugula tell me about keyamo winescape family to come. And the prophets Allah
says to one of these people, brothers and also said to him, What have you prepared for chiamato?
Probably didn't answer him. He says, What are you prepared? Are you ready for karma? If Keong were
to come? How much good deeds have you done? How many? How much stiffer Have you made? Are you ready
		
00:32:58 --> 00:33:34
			for it? What changes basically if working in another Hadith, a prophecy to a man or ask them when is
Kiana the Prophet says look at the youngest, the smallest child in the group, when that child grows
up to become an old man. So look at your children and look at the youngest child that you have. When
that baby grows up to being an old man, for you Kiama would have come? Does it matter? Subhanallah
if Qiyamah comes in 50 years from now, that gel comes in 10 years in 10 years time. But you die
tomorrow I die today. May Allah protect us? What difference does it make we mean the cupboard when
for you and for me? Akiyama has come, the nature of the cyst of life remains the same. Ultimately it
		
00:33:34 --> 00:34:03
			is your Salah, it is your fasting, it is being a good person to your family, being a good person, to
your neighbors, being good to your community. Those are the things that is ultimately what this life
is all about. And also how about understood that's panela what shows you the fifth and the
understanding of Sahaba when the prophets and spoke to them about the child? The first question
wasn't about how does he look? And what is he going to come from? And what how does he have these
powers? The first thing that actually asked him about was how do we make Salah if he's going to
destroy time, if one day is going to be like a year? How do we make Salah because they understood
		
00:34:03 --> 00:34:40
			the priority is to worship Allah. And so if this were the end for us, it's something that we should
think about you and I should think about this is never ending. This is something that maybe it's not
the end of time, but it's the end for me as a disease monger protect could affect me. Do I have my
fees in order? So, you know, someone comes to the doctor and says, Oh, come to the chef and says
I've just been diagnosed with terminal cancer. You know, kill me I only have a few days to live a
few weeks below. What do you advise to give me well, now everyone should put their affairs in order.
Any duties anything's you owe to Allah in terms of Salah in terms of fasting in terms of debts in
		
00:34:40 --> 00:34:59
			terms of the car. These things must be discharged we need to get right our books and accountable
Allah, any deeds we owe to any person, our world and these kinds of things need to be set in order.
We need to make Easter far and Toba. We have of course sins on our scales. We can remove them now.
Subhanallah we can go to Allah sin free sin
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:25
			us through Tobin is deferred so long as we still breathing and alive, the doors of Tobin is still
available to us. Any person that you have harmed or hurt these kinds of events or reminders, that's
fine all I need to pick up the phone and speak to my, my brother, my mother, my whoever it might be
an awful mouth OS that no one holds any grudge against me rather sorted out now, before we have to
sort this out on the day of Qian Mala protect us.
		
00:35:26 --> 00:36:01
			Once a hobby asked me some quite a bit about that job, and all these things, and the prophets have
said to him, you always ask these things. What is the matter with you, and so that in this hobby
says, you make a mention of the journal in the morning, and you speak about him so much that
describing him, sometimes he seems very important. And other times he seems very insignificant,
sometimes we feel like that John is going to jump out of the trees, and other times, you don't give
him much priority. We saw how he wants to understand this. And so the problem is currencies, i There
are things that I fear for you more important than the job, they are much bigger things I worry
		
00:36:01 --> 00:36:38
			about you about for you then then the jelt and it's about the priorities of life, worrying about the
job and the wedding of the signs of Kiama. Sometimes these things are a distraction, they keep us
away from what is important in our life. And the robber continues on. He says if the Zhaohua to come
while I'm amongst you, then I will contend with him on you'll be of I will sort him out on your
behalf. But if he comes while I'm not amongst you, every person must look after himself. And Allah
will take care of every Muslim on my behalf. So everyone needs to look after themselves. And again,
you look after yourself by taking the same precautions, as you know, as, as we all know, focus on
		
00:36:38 --> 00:37:17
			your salah, give more charity, be a good person, get closer to Allah subhanaw taala. And that is
what ultimately counts in times of calamity and abuse of Salam. So if you look at the there's a
chapter in every book of Hadith, it's called the Book of tribulations. It speaks about the journeys,
which are the science of Kiama. It speaks about any kind of tribulation that the prophet spoke
about. It's the night in the chapter of tribulations that the inquiry the prophets of salaam tells
you what to do in terms of tribulation, the profit sources, worshiping Allah during a period of
widespread turmoil is like making Hegira to me major meaning taking yourself away from the safety
		
00:37:17 --> 00:37:56
			that you need the salvation is through ibadah. So before more Ybarra, and then a resource home says,
hastening performing good deeds before you see six major signs all the prophets and speaks about six
signs that will come before Kiama dejavu, smoke the beast, the prophet speaks about these things. So
he says, hasten to do good deeds while you still can. Because there will come a time when you will
be overwhelmed by this tribulation. And so you and I, we still have the ability to do good deeds.
And so we need to cash in to as much as we can, especially during these times of tribulation, before
it is too late, is a Hadith in theory, maybe a beautiful Hadith from and so relevant to us. And this
		
00:37:56 --> 00:38:13
			is actually in also today. One of the reasons I gave this lecture is because for the past week, I've
been inundated with fake news and conspiracy theories that I felt I need to speak about, you know,
get people back to perspective. And then just before I spoke, gave this lecture today, a brother
sent a beautiful, beautiful
		
00:38:14 --> 00:38:54
			voice note of a hadith that I have never heard before and I checked it out in authentic. It's called
the hadith of salvation. In Timothy Sahabi. Akbar writes to the prophets of salaam said, he asked
them to be so salaam, what will give us salvation, what will save us what will save us? And so then
ivsa Salam responded, and he said, If you want to be saved, do three things. Number one, control
your tongue, and by extension, your whatsapp, your Facebook, control your tongue, watch this thing.
Number two, let your house be enough for you stick to your homes, let your homes be sufficient for
you. And number three, weep over your son's cry to Allah for the sooner that you can do these three
		
00:38:54 --> 00:39:39
			things you can Allah, that's all we need to do now stay at home, watch what we send out into the
digital universe and get closer to Allah, do good deeds, and repent for your sins and this will save
all of us will save all of us. Lastly, and my you know, very beautiful Hadith, even if this is the
inspiring one, even if Kiama were on our doorstep, even if all these fears were to come through. So
we are required to be optimistic, and we are required to respond beneficially being hysterical.
sending out messages and creating further hysteria really is counterproductive. There's no good in
that. It's just a way in which you are trying to control the situation that you cannot control. Li
		
00:39:39 --> 00:39:59
			go and focus on what you can control and this hadith, but Anasazi Allah and the Prophet was alums,
just to see if the final hour comes. If Kiama is basically arriving, and you have a sapling, a plant
in your hand, and it's possible for you to plant it, then he should plant it even if Kiama
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:40
			what's coming? Now someone might say, but if Yama is here, there's no way this plant will even grow
to be a tree, we do not worry about the outcome. Do not worry, the hadith is telling you do not
worry about things out of your control what America does what the governments of the world are
doing, what some scientists are doing, what the rest of humanity is doing, you cannot control that.
So don't worry about that. Worry about the things you can control. And no matter how bad your
situation is, or how dire the situation is, go back and do something good and something productive,
be positive, make you better, and hopefully good. Remember, every Ibadah we do every charity we give
		
00:40:40 --> 00:41:20
			every three we plant objective is not for us to see the result in the dunya, we want to see the
result in the archaea. And once we do the good deed, then the matter is in Allah's hands for him to
compensate us. And that is what is the purpose of life. So we remind ourselves that this dunya is
temporary. We're only going to be here for a few years, and then we're going to pass away and we
have to make the most of what we have. Sometimes were tested with ease and comfort. Sometimes were
tested with difficulty and hardship. Sometimes it's jobs or family or children's three sometimes big
things you know, global calamities, ultimately, salvation is in the Salah, we make the ECFR for our
		
00:41:20 --> 00:41:59
			sins we make the charity we give the company that the kind of freedom your husband, your wife, your
son and daughter you are this is that salva salvation is all about that. And yes, life won't give
its distance all the time it will be testing only when we enter the doors of Jannah while all tests
come to an end, and I pray and I pray to Allah subhanaw taala that maybe all of us into the doors of
Jannah very soon. And Allah let these difficult days pass very quickly. Allah keep us safe and grant
us to be mindful and Allah bring back the ease and comfort so that we can be better people but even
Illa Zack Allah He also was in a Muhammad wa he also have Islam saline and hula banana means so
