Muhammad West – Who is Allah

			We live in a shakedown rajim Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa Salatu
was Salam ala I should have been more saline CD now Mohammed in Nuala early he was a big man, my
beloved brothers and sisters in Islam, respected listeners on the radio voice of the caper said Mr
Aiken, Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh Al Hamdulillah All praise be Unto Allah subhana wa Tada initiative
Allah Allah Allah Allah will be a witness and testify but none has the right to be worshipped except
Allah subhanaw taala and we ask ALLAH SubhanA to bless us in this walk of Juma to forgive us our
sins, the mistakes that we've done. May Allah grant the week to come be a week filled with baraka
		

			and blessing. And we send our greetings and love and salutations. So beloved Nabina Muhammad
Sallallahu Sallam to his pious and pure family and to all those who follow his sunnah until the end
of time. Now Allah subhanaw taala blessed us to be upon the Sunnah of Nabina Muhammad Sallallahu
sallam. Meanwhile, hamdulillah Al Hamdulillah. As I mentioned, we live on the radio. So behave
yourselves and hamdulillah and
		

			last week for the past couple of weeks, we've been talking about a series on sins and we sit today
in sha Allah, we will talk about the psychology of sin, how do I get rid of sin? Why am I addicted
to sin? That was the plan. But alhamdulillah or, you know, this week, I've received a number of
questions, which I think is we need to address something before that even people have sent me
messages in the streets in the spate ways Allah wise, Allah putting me through this hardship. People
have sent me messages very honest, and Frank messages, no judgement. Why should I even be a Muslim?
Why should I give up my lifestyle for a religion that I'm really not connected to? I might have been
		

			born a Muslim, whatever Muslim name, but in reality, I feel no connection with this religion.
		

			People might ask how do I transform my life? You and I might ask, How do I give up the sun? And the
answer is we do this. And we feel a connection and we live this life, because we are connected to
Allah subhanaw taala we have a relationship with Him. And when we look at where we are in this dunya
we find ourselves the big question is why have I been put here? What's the purpose of my life, the
purpose of, of being here, from Islamic perspective, we know Allah subhanaw taala says to us so Maha
Krajina will insert Ilya balloon that we have not been created except to worship Allah, to have a
connection with Allah to live a life in servitude to Allah. But before we can even do that, we ask
		

			Who is Allah? Who is Allah? What should I think about when I think about Allah? When I turned
towards this religion? What am I turning towards? When I give up my life, the enjoyment and the
pleasures for the sake of Allah, Who is this Allah that I'm doing it for? Because this religion is
not just coming to the masjid is not just about making Salah five times a day, it is a deen, it's a
way of life. Every decision that you and I make is for the sake of Allah. Every decision we make
with who we were going to get married to what job we should take how we should earn our money, it
goes back to bringing me closer to Allah subhana wa Tada.
		

			So we need to ask, first and foremost, who is this Allah? And what should we think about when we
think of Allah? Allah requires us to live our life going towards him coming closer to Him, to the
point as if though we can see him but of course we cannot see Allah in this dunya so let's ask this
question. And today's Juma Kuba and it's something that every one of us we should discuss with our
kids, we should think about, even though we're born Muslims, were born knowing the name of Allah,
but who is he really? So we begin, we open the Quran, right at the beginning verse number one
Bismillahi Rahmani Raheem, Indian name of Allah, and the first attribute the first evidence Allah
		

			gives about himself. He says I'm a Rahman and Rahim you read Surah Fatiha Alhamdulillah Praise be to
Allah, Lord, creator of the whole universe. So who are you? Yeah, Allah, Who is this Lord? He says R
Rahman r Rahim, the very first attribute and quality that Allah has given himself. The first thing
he wants you to think about when you think of him is Rahman and Rahim. So what is our man? And what
is our Rahim? Both, of course comes from Rama, mercy, some translations you will hear, they will say
the Most Beneficent, the Most kind, the Most Gracious. What does this mean really?
		

			Rahman. And Rahim comes from this quality of mercy. And the difference between the two, it's
beautiful man is the one who is vast in his essence, he's merciful. Whatever he does, is mercy. That
by his very nature, by his very essence, he is merciful, and that everybody and every creation, even
if he's even sinner, has a share of this mercy, that Allah in His very nature, he's merciful. He's
Rockman. Then as for him, sort of man, one way of doing one way of explaining his is passive state,
Allah in his natural do you know he's default he's he's merciful.
		

			And when he acts he acts with Rama Rahim Rahim is active. When Allah comes towards this creation, He
comes towards them with mercy. Allah in a hadith mentions the prof Salam says that Allah says this
name Rahim I have taken this name Rahim from the Rahim Brahim is the uterus of the Mother, the womb
of the mother. I have derived my name from the uterus. Why the uterus? Because the uterus, the womb
of the mother protects that child from all corners, envelops the child with love and mercy. And so
to when Allah approaches his creation, when Allah interacts with us, from all directions, he
interacts with mercy, with kindness, with gentleness, with love. This is what Allah is the first
		

			thing he wants you to know. He's merciful. He's kind, he's good. He loves you. This is what Allah
is. Allah says, What are Hurmati what's the Aquila che that My Mercy touches encompasses envelops
everything, every sinner, every person, every animal, even he believes he has a guaranteed che of
Allah's mercy. We go through the space sometimes we go through hardship, but never ever feel cut off
from the Mercy of Allah because Allah has promised that every single one of his creation would have
mercy.
		

			Allah subhanho wa Taala of His Names so yes, Rahman and Rahim these are the first of his names of
the other names that we find and to get to know who he is. He is a food and aloha Farah.
		

			Monk Farah we know as being forgiving. It's not really forgiveness. Most FIRA comes from it Farah,
which is a shield. So Allah is saying, I am the one that shields you, protects you covers you from
hardship from difficulty and from sin. When you commit sin, I am the one that conceals it. And when
you should be punished I'm going to be the one that blocks that punishment. And Allah joins these
two names. Lofoten Rahim many times in the Quran.
		

			Beautifully the Allah mentions when you find the words of a fool Rahim, the one who protects and
Rahim the one who acts with mercy. Usually it's for the sinner. Allah will say you commit sin but if
you come back, you would find me for food and Rahim meaning for the one who sins, I will come to you
as a protector a concealer, and one who is merciful of His Names is
		

			the one who expunges and wipes out everything of sin. He extinguishes completely. His forgiveness is
beyond your son beyond my son. He's at the web debayer toolbar is to return that no matter how far
you've left Allah, how far of course you and I have gone. We've lived 6070 years, maybe not one
Salah and not one sujood. Now you want to come back to Allah. Allah says, I'm at the web, I will
always come back to you. When you come back to me. I come back to you. No questions asked. I am
ready to come back to you. He's a Latif the soft and gentle that whenever he does something, it's
with kindness and subtlety. is alpha dude, deeply loving for His creation, more loving than a parent
		

			for a child. He's Alpha dude is an Haleem. The forbidding forbearance means you sinned against him,
you harm him or in terms of you disrespect him, you sin and you break his laws. But he's forbidding
he lets go. He doesn't hold grudges. He's forbidding and Haleem, the most forbidding this is who
you're up is. This is who you think about when you make dua, when you're asking you in need. When
you feel distant. Think of these names. Allah says to you and me look at the Subhan Allah, we ask
for you and me there are things which are followed. Compulsory, we have to do we haven't we can't do
for Allah we say who can who can compel Allah, who gives Allah the restriction. Allah says that
		

			about Abu Kumada and FC Rama that I
		

			that I have written, made compulsory on myself Rama, Allah says cutterbar Allah and FC Rama Allah
made fuddled on himself, I will always be merciful, even to the worst of the worst, even to the
bliss. I will be merciful. And Allah continues and says, and no man I mean, I mean consew And Bucha
Hallett into metabo mean, buddy, what a no fool Rahim so that if any of you does any son, out of
ignorance mistake you've made a mistake. And you come back to Allah in repentance. Allah says you
will find me buffoon, Rahim I will cover your sin. Protect your sin, forgive your sin and be
merciful on you. Allah says I have made this fuddled on myself compulsory on me, Allah Subhana Allah
		

			says to the prophets of salaam not be a baddie, an analogue of Rahim say to my creation, say to my
slaves that I am most surely the oft forgiving, continuously forgiving, and the Most Merciful in my
actions, Kalia Obadiah Lavina Astra who Allah unfussy him
		

			That's not to mean Rahmatullah. Allah says to each and every one of us,
		

			say to the sending the center of my servants say to those of My servants that have committed sin.
Allah didn't say if it's a small sin A minus and any sin Olson, if you committed Zina, if you have
lived a life that you did not have Allah as in your relationship, if you had forgotten Allah, Allah
says, say to this person, the drug addict Latok not to me Rahmatullah don't ever lose hope in my
mercy, that I forgive all sins. In Allah fu Bucha me, I forgive every single son in law who will
have a full array of cars. Surely He is a four and Rahim Allah tells you, oh, a knee. Yeah, Jim, I
mean, and those who are listening, no matter what your situation is, know that your sin is not
		

			bigger than Allah, that your distance from Allah is not too far from Allah, that you are not so far
away that you cannot return to Him. That Allah subhanho wa Taala His mercy and Rama encompasses you,
even when you turn away from Him. And if you come back to him, then he will just give you more of
that mercy. Allah subhanaw taala mentioned the Hadith that he said to the Prophet Salam. When he
created the creation, he decreed that My Mercy will always be bigger than my punishment when my
anger always I will be more merciful, then I will be angry to like my creation. The Prophet explains
this mercy. Now again, Allah wants you to understand who he is. Allah subhanaw taala tells the
		

			Prophet SAW Salem the Noda resources when Allah created mercy, all of Rama, all of it, he divided it
into 100 pieces 100%. And he took 1% of His mercy, and he gave it to his creation. So that every act
of kindness, Mercy goodness comes from that you that mercy you feel for your child is from Allah's
mercy, that even the animal you'd find the mother animal will not trample on her baby, it comes from
that 1% And then he said, I kept 99 For myself, all the mercy in creation is just part of that. 1%
But he has 99 with himself. That's what Allah subhanaw taala is, Allah says to the prophets of the
soul, Salam. So when they ask you about Me, when My servants see who is Allah, where is Allah for
		

			iniquity, I am near to them already. I'm not going to come near to them, I am near to them. I know
these situations. I know the hardships. I know who they are, I know thy sins that they have done.
And still I merciful towards them. Would you would die with a die that Dan and I always answer the
one who asks me, you asked me I've made it compulsory, I must answer you. I will respond to you.
It's a promise from Allah. The Prophet peace be upon him sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he says, as
narrated Abu Dawood
		

			will you Lord is gracious, he's generous, and he shy Allah is shine Subhan Allah, Allah, you have
shyness, yes, he is shy for the one who raises his hands to Allah, that Allah He turns them empty.
It is Allah is his greatness, that you will never leave someone's hands turn to Him and not put
anything inside it. Allah feels a sense of shyness in a manner which reflects his majesty, for the
one who makes dua not to respond to them. The Allah Subhana Allah says, I am as my servant thinks of
me, if you want to know who I am, I'm as you think of me, I am with him when he makes mention of me
when you mentioned me, I'm with you. And if you make some mention of me inside to himself, when I
		

			mentioned him inside myself, when you mentioned Allah's Name, Allah mentions your name inside of
himself in a manner which was His Majesty. And Allah says, and if he mentions me, in a gathering,
when you speak of Allah, amongst a group of people, that Allah says, I promise, I mentioned you in a
better gathering, I mentioned your name with my angels, someone better. Whenever you speak of Allah,
and remember him and like vicar of him, he remembers you and mentions your name, Allahu Akbar. And
if my servant draws near, to me a very short distance, it just comes to me with a short distance,
that I will come to him with an even bigger distance. And if he comes walking to me, I will run
		

			towards him in a manner which we fits Allah's majesty as narrated in Buhari, what a wonderful Hadith
This is, your Lord is more kind and gentle and loving, when you can even imagine. And the more you
think of him as kind, the more merciful and kind he is to you. This beautiful Hadith the Prophet SAW
Salem as agreed upon by Muslim and hottie. Once the province of Salem, they were in a battle, and a
city was invaded. And during the commotion, a lady couldn't find her child. And houses are burning
and things are upside down. And so the mother thinks the child has died. So she's screaming, she's
frantic, she's hysterical. And then all
		

			of a sudden by the rubble she finds this child standing the and so the Prophet Solomon the Sahaba
watching this lady, so she runs to her child now, I want you as parents to picture this. Imagine you
through it like when we met last summer, how long may this be the case? You see an accident, maybe
with your child involved. And then you see your child coming out safe and sound? How will you run to
the child? So this mother runs his child like this, and she grabs her boy, and she picks him up and
hugs him and pulls him as hard as she can kissing that child. So the Prophet son looks at this lady
and he says, there's a harbor. And he says to the Companions, can you imagine that this woman with
		

			the amount of love she's feeling now she could ever, ever throw this child into a fire CDRs was
impossible to harvest. It's also love. This is impossible. This lady could never throw this child
into the fire. So Allah the Prophet Solomon says, so to Europe is even more reluctant to cost any of
his creation in Ghana, it is more unlikely for Allah to put you in Jannah than your own mother, as
Hassan Al Basri says, If you truly understood Allah, you would be more comfortable knowing that
Allah is judging me on piano, then mommy, then your own mother. You know if my if my mother if I
knew was going to judge me, and it was Jana, Jana, no matter what I did, Mommy's gonna send me to
		

			Jana. Mommy will let me go to Johanna. Allah is even kinder and more loving to me than my mother
than your mother. That is who you are, Rob is that is the one that looks at your deeds night and
day, and gives you risk and puts things in your path which is good for you and takes things out of
your way which is bad for you, and will judge us on the Day of PM. We know of the beautiful Hadith
that gives us hope in spite of our sins against Allah, a man will come with 99 CG lat scrolls of
sin, the angels will roll those scrolls out, as far as the eye can see nothing in it of good. He has
done nothing good in his life. And it will be weighed. And now this man will see her Allah Hollis
		

			what's the point of weighing? What's the point of judging? I have no good deeds. I have 99 scrolls,
as far as the eye can see of sin. Why should we even go through the trial? So Allah Swan says but
you have within your pocket these a bit darker, you've got a small piece of paper with good deeds on
it with something good in the so the man says yeah, Allah, what is the benefit of me even weighing
this against the 99? It's no purpose. So Allah says today is the day of justice. Everything will be
taken into account for this man opens the paper when he puts it on the scale. And that paper is
heavier than the sun. And what's inside that paper is La ilaha illAllah. What's inside that paper?
		

			Is that this man? Yes, he committed his Zina. Yes, he killed this he did every sin. But in that
paper, he had a relationship with Allah where he did not permit you to do the one thing he says to
Allah. Yeah, the one thing you can say yeah, Allah, I did not worship anyone besides you. I did not
turn to an idol, or a grave or saint or karma or whatever in my time of need. I only came to you
your Allah. And because of that Allah will forgive all those sins. Hadith the Prophet SAW Salem is
riding with Martini gerbil on the camel and the prophet and the prophet system. IDM why should I not
tell you about something like a secret and don't spread the secrets? This is yes Yasuda Allah, He
		

			says Do you know what you are right that Allah has upon us the hug of Allah and us is that we should
not worship anyone besides Him. And then he says Salah Salem listen to this. And you know what our
heart is on Allah, what Allah owes us. Allah owes us something. So he says Allah Allah knows best.
So the Prophet is on says that if we do not worship anyone besides Him, then we have to go to
Jannah. It is the hug of Allah that he has to put everyone who does not come and share with him into
Jannah. This is who Europe is. He does not ask a million billion things of us. He asks us for one
thing. Just recognize that I am your Lord. I created you I feed you I give you life every second
		

			when you die, you will come back to me. So worship Me alone. But if you need anything I am here.
Come back to me. That's all Allah subhanho wa Taala is really asking of this creation. And even
though we will sin Yes, and there will be a judgment Yes. And some people will be punished his out
of His Majesty, Allah Subhana Allah says, the prophecies, anyone who even just acted and believed in
La ilaha illallah and did not commit sin and Allah found in his heart Eman equal to the weight of an
atom the smallest level of iman even the smell of iman was the just the hint of iman. Then he will
be removed from Jahannam now brothers and sisters your year in this Masjid Wallah, you have more
		

			than an atom's weight of Eman and your Allah knows best. You've left your businesses, you've left
your jobs you've come here, those of tune in you could have tune into any station but you tune into
this one to listen to something of benefit to learn of your app. There is something in your heart
with all the sins Yes, but there is an Eman in your
		

			On attachment to Allah, that if it is there in sha Allah when we die, then it is guaranteed that we
will go to Jana insha. Allah by the Grace of Allah
		

			before me or not yes with all our sins but we are open we are Jana T's, will people for the Jana to
meet Allah one day, Allah subhanaw taala mentions another beautiful Hadith very these are a few, my
favorite Hadith or in this lecture today, Allah Subhana Allah says,
		

			the Prophet says Allah has countless angels who roam around the world, they fly constantly looking
out for gatherings of vicar, Allah, those who remember Allah, and they invoke Allah. And they sit,
the angels sit with him, and the angels fold their wings around each other. And so many of them join
that it actually folds, they even so many of you, there are more angels in this gathering and your
people to listen and to join us. Until they even to the lowest level from the highest to the lowest.
Then finally, when the gathering is finished, these angels leave and they rise up to the highest
level and the promises and says, then Allah and Allah knows everything. Allah doesn't need to ask
		

			for knowledge, he knows. So then Allah says to them, where have you come from? Where did you come
from? And the angels will say, We came from the servants by name of yours on the earth. And they
said, subhanAllah they glorified you and they made a bit of you. And they witnessed and they said
these people believe that nun has the right to be worshipped except you and they're asking things of
you yet Allah. So Allah says to the angels, and what do they ask of me? What are they asking? So and
Allah of course knows what they asked. So Angel says they are asking you for Jana Allah. So Allah
says and have the servants of mine who asked for Jana hbu people here have you asked for Jana? Yes.
		

			But have they seen my Jana? So the angel say No, they haven't seen your Jana. So Allah says now how
do you think they would be if they actually saw my Jana? How much would they ask for it? So the
angel sees that this is like how much more would they be if they actually saw the Jana? And then
they all the angels see they also asked you your Allah for for your protection. So Allah says and
protection from what? So they said they want protection from your Janna mule fire. And Allah says
Have they seen my Jana? So Should Know Allah, they have not seen your jahannam? So Allah Allah so
can you imagine? How would they be if they actually saw my Janome? If they believe in me and my Jana
		

			and Jana without seeing it? How do you think these people would be if they actually saw it, and the
angel see that ask for your forgiveness for the sins. So Allah says to the angels, I have forgiven
them, and I have bestowed upon them what they have, I'm going to give them what they ask. And I've
granted them protection from that which is prediction. And then the Prophet Solomon says, an angel
will say, Oh, Lord, amongst that group of people that were worshipping you, is a bad sending
servant, a sinner, a bad person. And he just walked past that group. And he said they for a little
bit. What about him? So Allah says, and to him also I have forgiven him, for whoever just set the he
		

			will not sorry, you will not be excluded from this Allahu Akbar. This is who you're up is. This is
who you are, Allah may Allah is ALLAH SubhanA. Allah says, a servant committed a sin, whatever sin
it was big or small, Xena murder, whatever it might be even smiling, I got a message from someone in
jail. That is, you know, in jail, even the one that is in maximum, the worst of the worst. This
hadith is for him also. It's not just for the Wali. It's for the worst of the worst. We know the man
who killed 99 people 100 people killed. In fact, I don't think any of you you have killed 100
people. I don't think any of you here have killed your own children. But this hadith is even for
		

			that person. Allah says a servant committed a sin. And then he came back and said, Oh Allah, forgive
me, my son. I made a mistake here Allah. So Allah said, My servant, he committed a sin, yes. But he
understood that he has a Lord and His Lord forgives, and that his Lord punishes, so I forgave him.
Then he sinned again. And he again Arcia Allah forgive me. So Allah says, He again came back sinned,
but he understands, yes, so I forgave him. And again, then again, then again, over and over, same
son over and over day and night, he sins, but He comes back to me and ask for forgiveness. So then,
Allah says, so do as you wish, and even if you sin, so long as you keep coming back, I have forgiven
		

			you. You know, when Ali said, once very profound, he said, maybe the sun and some of us have a
special son, a son, which we know that we are weak, a weakness, but perhaps that sin is the means
that you will enter Jannah how will that sin be that I enter Jannah? Perhaps that struggle that you
have day and night that you send today or you send in at night, and then tomorrow you feel regret
and make Toba when Allah forgives you, but then you fall back and you keep making Toba, sincere
Toba. Then your daily struggle between sin and forgiveness sin and stick far you
		

			It drove that sin caused you to make constantly stick far it will be that sin that actually leads
you to Jannah. May Allah Allah forgive us. Allah says, This is my second favorite Hadith, we'll get
to the last which is my favorite. Allah says, Allah Himself says, oh son of Adam, as long as you
call upon me, no matter what it is, no matter what you ask, no matter how much sun you have, and you
put your hope in me, just trust me. Trust that I am Lee and I will forgive you, then I promise I
have forgiven you for what you have done. And I don't mind no regrets. No second thought, it's gone.
It won't even appeal on your on your scroll on chiama expunged. Like, you know, if someone commits a
		

			crime, you can do the sentence and he said free but his record is not expanded. So on his name, he
still has a mark on it. Allah says it will be gone. It won't. In fact, they'll be replaced with a
good deed. So Allah so son of Adam, even if you send the most of sins, but so long as you come back
and ask me, I promise you, I'll forgive you. And I don't mind. Oh, son of Adam, if your sins were to
reach the clouds of the sky, and then you came to me ask you for my forgiveness. I promise I will
forgive you. The man for example, who for 70 years was committing sin 80 years, he wasn't coming to
Allah, he forgot Allah his whole life. Now when he sends us so big, and he's got that diagnosis
		

			where yeah, the biller molars cure all those who are sick. Now the doctor says you've got three
months to live. Now he wants to come back to Allah. Allah says, For this man, if your sins reach the
sky, but you asked me, then I will forgive you. Nope. And I don't mind I will forgive you. Then
Allah speaks about a third person who is even more dangerous. Oh, son of Adam, if you were to come
to me, this isn't the day of Kiama with sins that are close to filling the earth. And you were to
meet me like that. But you didn't come a chick. You didn't worship anyone besides me. So the man
sinned, he did his zener he did his drugs, whatever it might be. He didn't even make it so far to
		

			ask Allah to forgive him. And he died with all those sins on his head. And he comes to Allah and
they've Kiama and the only thing you can say, Yeah, Allah, I did all the sins, but I didn't come and
check with you. Yeah, Allah. Then Allah says, You came to me with a world full of sins. I don't
think inshallah any of us have reached that level. I mean, I hope not yet Allah forgive us. But a
man will come with a world filled with sins. And all he can say is I didn't come a chick that Allah
will say to this person, I will surely bring to you forgiveness also equal to fully the dunya. This
is who you're up is. It gives Allah no pleasure in punishing, but it gives him joy in seeing his
		

			creation, obedient and successful, and forgiving the faults He knows us. In fact, the Hadith says,
Allah created us weak so that we could soon and we can come back and make Toba insofar, this act of
returning to Allah, Allah loves that more than the one who didn't commit sin at all. I'm not saying
God will commit sin and then make Toba No, don't do that. But naturally, we will commit sin.
		

			And it's the act of Toba that it really brings Allah's joy the Hadith mode and as he mentioned last
week, that the man who makes Tober is more Allah gets happier than that man who lost the camel and
he's about to die and then finds his camel and he's so happy. He says, Allah, you are my slave and
I'm YOLO meaning he's delirious of happiness. Allah is even happier than him. When you and I make a
stiffer stuff that Allah stuff that Allah it brings Allah more sense of majestic divine happiness or
Hadith to live by. People as I said, the message to see this religion is all about don't do haram
haram don't do, why should I not do this? Why should I live as a Muslim? Why should I be in this
		

			Deen? Because it's an Allah, because he puts you here, and he wants you to have a relationship with
Him. And this hadith basically tells you how to live. Allah says Again, it's it's a hadith could see
meaning Allah Himself is speaking. And he says, oh my servant.
		

			I have forbidden oppression on myself. I've made it haram for me to be oppressive. And therefore I
made it haram for you to be oppressive, so don't oppress each other. Oh, my servant. All of you are
a stray except for those who I have guided. So seek guidance from me and I will guide you ask Allah
for help, and I will help you. Allah says, Oh, my servants, all of you are hungry, except those I
feed to seek food of me and I promise I will feed you, you will have sustenance. You won't die of
starvation. You won't go bankrupt. If you stand to me sincerely. Oh my servant. All of you are
naked, except those who I have put clothes on to seek seek clothing from me and I will clothe you.
		

			Oh my servant. You listen to this. Yeah, Allah, Oh My servants you sin by night and by day. Think
about your sins, I think about my sins. The sins that you do. I do, sir, we know this between us and
Allah, Allah knows it. He says to us, you've sinned by night and by day, and I forgive all sins, to
seek forgiveness and I will forgive you. Oh my servant, you will not attain harming me. If you
reject Allah. If you sin
		

			If you deny his existence, Allah says to those, you will not harm me, you will not diminish me, you
will take away from me, you will not harm me so as to harm me and you will attain benefiting me from
benefiting me. Allah says to the Pious One, your Salah does not benefit him, your charity does not
benefit him, you can enrich, increase or decrease him, you only worship and turn to him for your own
sake. Oh, my servants, were the first of you and the last from the beginning of creation until the
end of creation. If the humans and the jinn and all of them, if you were as pious as the most pious
hot, if every single one of us was like Rasulullah Salallahu, salam, Allah says, that will not
		

			increase my kingdom at all, will not benefit me at all, I don't need you piety. And if all of you
the beginning to the end, had the most wicked of hearts, you will all like IBLEES it won't harm
Allah in the least it will not take away a decrease from him, Oh, my servant will the first of you
and the last of you, the humans in the gene, to raise up in one place all of you. And you were to
ask me for things you kept asking me. I will and I were to give everyone I will to satisfy all your
wants and desires,
		

			then it would not.
		

			Then it would not decrease what I have any more than a needle is able to take water out of the
ocean. Oh my servants. And this is the conclusion of his Hadith. So Allah says, Listen, in terms of
life at the end of life, oh my servants it is but your deeds that I will judge you what you did. And
then I will reward you or punish you according to what you have lived your life. So let him who
finds good. Praise Allah. That's because Allah guided you. And whoever finds other than that. The
blame is only on you. Now Jamaica Muslim in my last Hadith, and my favorite Hadith as I began this
lecture, if one asks the big questions, why am I here? Why should I? What should I think about in
		

			the morning when I wake up? What am I striving towards? Why do I work so hard? Islam we say that the
purpose of your life is to worship Allah. And some may say is that all that it is to life? All I'm
supposed to do is make thicker, thicker, make sujood is that what Allah wants? What Allah wants is
for you and me to have a life that is connected to him, to seek him out? Yes, we cannot see him but
to love so that we can get nearer to him. Why? Because one day we want to see him one day we want to
be in his presence in the dunya the challenge is to seek him out in our in our in our work in our
family in everything we do to make it about Allah to build that relationship with Him so that we
		

			will see him in the in the akhira. Now, this hadith I mentioned and this is the Hadith that if you
want to know what you're working for in life, why you struggle why you wake up with budget why
you're going to foster Ramadan why you say for Hajj, it's for this one thing as a as a you know, the
Qiyamah will be on a Friday. It will be a difficult day, May Allah protect us on that day. We will
stand before Him and those of us who are fortunate and may be amongst them will enter Jannah
		

			and then it will be a Saturday and on Saturday you can imagine the partying that's gonna go on right
Saturday in Jana that first Saturday night in Jana. Can you imagine? No rules, no restrictions Who
do I mean? It's gonna be parties, Rohan Allah. And every day there'll be something new, which I call
up the ropes so beautifully. He said you will see a date you will take it and you'll taste it and
it'll be the most amazing thing you've tasted. When you take the second date and it tastes better
than the first you taste the third it's waiting the second and Jana just keeps getting better and
better and better. And you'll go through the first week enjoying Jana exploring and seeing things
		

			but that's not what it's about. Because you will find and Ivonne on the day of Friday night Jana has
time, and it has Friday. And you'll see Subhanallah What is this and why is there a call for Friday?
This is Umar July in Jana, I thought we done with us. We had to sit through these by hands like
you're sitting through now. It was like torture on the dunya for some of you Why do we have the
store chain Jana? Why is your wire so now you'll be brought in to know you must come for this
Jaguar. And then you will sit in this valley in general fear those general videos is the highest
Jannah and the best of the best we'll be living them and we'll be amongst them. But if we're not get
		

			if we don't get to live in fear those will at least get a visitor's pass on Friday. They will sit in
this valley beneath the Throne of Allah and we'll see the MBR on thrones. What's going to happen
now. This is why you live your life Gemma colostomy for that moment. Imagine the first Friday we get
to Jana. When we waiting in anticipation, what's going to happen we sitting there all of us like
this on the ground sitting waiting. And then as the Hadith mentions, Allah will be seen in a manner
which He puts His Majesty down to this gathering from his arch down when he will descend.
		

			And he will say to the people there and we will use
		

			His voice how have you found my channel? And they will say, yeah Allah, we are founded. We can
describe, is there any needs that you have fulfill asked me Allah will say the Hadith says three
times he says, asked me, What do you want? I want to give you more. He said, Yeah, Allah who he are
done, we can't think of our imaginations are done. We can't think of what more to ask. So Allah will
give us things that we couldn't even imagine new things, new creations, and Allah will say, and they
will say, Oh Allah, we just want you to be pleased with us. And also my pleasure is upon you. You
live that life. So now my pleasure is on you. And when everyone says, Yeah, Allah, I'm completely
		

			satisfied. This is what it's all about when Allah says, I want to give you something that no other
creation experienced something which no other group has ever experienced. And what is that? Yeah,
Allah, as Allah says in the Quran, for them who live this life of difficulty is the Janna Well,
mozzie. They get Jana, and more what is more than Jana, when Allah subhanaw taala, descends and
comes close. And he says, Now I'll give you this extra. And we know when he removes that veil of
light between him and us. And we will see the creator, the Lord of the universe, directly with our
eyes, and we get to see him. That is the greatest joy. That is what this creation is all about. We
		

			lived our life, as if though we could see him we tried our best. And if you succeed in that, if I
succeed, then you will see him in Jannah mean, that's why we are here. So all of us.
		

			put things in perspective, put your life in perspective, you only have 6070 years to do good do to
do son, but make that insha Allah your objective that one day, I want to be in that valley on that
Friday under the Throne of Allah. And I will see Allah directly. I mean, may Allah grant all of us,
all of us, that all of us, no matter how bad we are, to be forgiven, and to sit there, and that they
come soon, may all the days between now and then pass away quickly so that we can be in the presence
of Allah and see him with our eyes. I mean, may Allah forgive us. We have not given Allah the do
share that he deserves. May Allah forgive us and guide us and be and grant us to be better mean just
