			Salam alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh Alhamdulillah wa Salatu was Salam ala rasulillah. So today
it's a very beautiful verse in Surah tel out of verse number 156, Allah subhanho wa Taala tells us
what to blend if he has the dunya has an attempt to fill ferati in now who didn't he like, write
down for us write down for us that in this world, we will receive hasna that we will receive all the
good of this world. But when it comes to the earth or in now hooding at a lake, we will be lovingly
guided and steer towards you, Oh Allah. But that's that will be in the future of what the Israelites
did do as followers of Musa alayhis. Salam is they basically made a promise to him, they said, Okay,
		
00:00:49 --> 00:01:35
			fine. You know what, as long as you give us the best in this world, in the Hereafter, in other
words, when we die and we meet Allah subhanho wa Taala. In at that point, we will be willing and
lovingly caring enough that we would want to go towards him, we will follow His commands. So we'll
do everything you're asking us to do? Just not now. We'll do that later. And this is what yahudi
means. yahudi means is that you follow towards somebody, you walk towards somebody, you steer
yourself towards something in a loving way, in a way that's caring, and nurturing, and so on. Now,
Allah subhanho wa Taala tells us color either B or C Bobby, he meant a share, or Mati was the
		
00:01:35 --> 00:02:21
			Aquila, Shay, my punishment will come to anybody that I wish. Now it's really important to keep this
a in context so that you understand the bigger picture of what's happening here. So basically, Allah
subhanho wa Taala, saying, fine. If you want the best in this world, just understand one thing, and
if you're going to reserve obedience, for the afterlife will understand this. When it comes to my
punishment, I will punish whom ever I wish that is a given, it's not, you're not going to change
that. So you need to make a choice. Now, you either take this seriously now and the F hero, or you
just are going to be subject to some form of punishment. And this is the message that they were
		
00:02:21 --> 00:03:00
			getting this is the message that we all get. We all have a decision, we can't just be pious in one
world and expect something else in another. So we can just expect ourselves as believers that we
will just live life, do whatever we want, say whatever we want to act the way that we want in this
world. But then an afterlife will expect that all of those decisions will go away, nothing will be
held accountable against us and so on and so forth. That's kind of the point of the Day of Judgment.
It's the day of justice today of accountability. So all those who may have felt that they could get
away with certain things in this world. Well, that's what the Day of Judgment is all about. Allah
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:43
			will hatch out all of the things that people mankind had thought that they could just leave behind,
nobody would pay attention they could get away with and it's broth brought out in front of them as
Allah subhanho wa Taala tells us and other parts of the poor and the book is either of deeds is
either given to your right or to your left. Now, a lead then continues and he tells us water it was
the Aquila Shea, however, My Mercy encompasses every single thing. This is really beautiful. This is
one of the this is the life changing part of this verse is to know that at the end of the day, that
Allah subhana wa tada His mercy, his acceptance, his protection, His love, His nurture, his care,
		
00:03:43 --> 00:04:30
			his guidance, his knowledge, all of these wonderful things, is all part and an extension of Allah's
mercy. Now here's the thing, if you think about mercy that you're being saved or excused of
something that's not exactly what mercy so if you think that oh, you know, had I stopped that that
light I would have been the one that got into the accident, or but I made a turn before I got to the
light so Allah Allah saved me Allah had mercy so that you're you're saved from a situation. That's
not exactly how Mercy is defined. Our Prophet alayhi salatu was Salam tells us in a hadith put see
that a lot. So Joel says that he had named the womb of the mother of Rahim he had named it after his
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:59
			name after a reitman or a Rahim. So the point is, is that when the mother is carrying that child in
her stomach, the womb in Arabic the womb is called adore him, which is the root word of Rama,
Allah's mercy. Now what does this have to do with anything? Well, if you think about how a mother
is, when she's pregnant, she's cautious. He's careful. She watches what she eats. She's careful how
she sits, how she spends everything, how she sleeps, all of these wonderful things that she adjusts
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:37
			Her life so that she can nurture and care and keep her child safe. But here's what the child gives
her in return. She goes through pain after pain, she has to adjust her eating habits. So all the
things that she likes or she might be craving for doesn't necessarily mean she'll be able to eat
that the child doesn't have to pay rent, the child is just in the stomach, taking away all her
vitamins, all of her energy tumbling all over the place, waking her up at all hours of the night.
And this is all happening before she even gave birth. When the time to deliver the child. That's a
whole separate issue altogether. Then when it comes to post birth, then she goes through certain
		
00:05:37 --> 00:06:20
			things, certain stages, she go through a lot of pain, she needs time to heal. But then the child is
always in need of her. She's got a nurse, the child change, she's got to do all of these different
things. And so the point is this, here's where here's how you can really appreciate Allah's mercy.
Despite that, she goes through all of that struggle and pain with her child. She still loves her
child, she still cares for her child, no matter what happens to her kid. She'll feel the pain of
that child. You know, I want to talk to a mother A while ago who had a son that was just, you know,
literally one of the most difficult kids, she you could imagine the way that she described the
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:37
			behavior of her son. And all the things that he used to say and do is to go out really late at
night, she would never know where he was. She would never know what he was doing so many secrets.
He'd be locked up, secluded in his room, etc, etc, etc. Every worst nightmare for a parent this son
had.
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:39
			Then something happened to the son.
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:58
			He was found dead in a creek nearby her home. So her son went out late at night. And he never
returned. For weeks, probably I think if I remember correctly, it was about two weeks. The police
were looking for this for this guy found his body floating in a nearby Creek.
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:51
			When she found out she screamed in tears, just like any mother would. She screamed. She cried. She
was overwhelmed. And now when you listen to her story, she'll say to you, my son was perfect. Yeah,
he had his flaws. Yeah, he had problems. Yeah, he used to say and do certain things, but I miss him.
It was my son. That's Allah's mercy. No matter how much we hurt Allah, meaning we disobey or we
choose not to follow His commands or we don't follow his instructions. His rules matter how much we
disobey Allah. Whatever capacity. What is the left still tell us at the end of the day. Hola. Hola.
fudo Rahim. He is exceptionally forgiving. Always merciful. Allah subhanho wa Taala still says,
		
00:07:51 --> 00:08:13
			Yeah, you haven't talked to me in six months? You haven't prayed? You haven't made a single door in
six months. And Allah still says we are only a stingy bellicum just keep calling upon me. I'll
respond. But I need you to do it. Just call upon me. And I'm there. He doesn't say well, you know,
you've been around. You haven't been around in six months. I'll see.
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:42
			SDG bellicum. I will respond. That's allez. Merci. So to really capture when Allah subhanaw taala
says what I'm at West, the article a, it encompasses and it engulfs, and it's spread out over all
things. It means that every creation on the planet, every single creation on the planet is under
Allah's mercy at some point. You know,
		
00:08:43 --> 00:09:29
			yesterday, I went for a bike ride. And as I'm writing, I start feeling something tickling my fingers
and I look down. And on my hat on the bike handle, there was a little caterpillar that was walking.
I don't know how in the world it got on my bike, but it started walking on my finger. So as I'm
writing, I slow down. And I'm looking at this caterpillar. And this Caterpillar is trying its best
to find a way out because I could see half its body is on my finger. And the other half is stretched
out as if he's trying to scope where what do I touch what Where is where's the tree, where's the
leaf something. And as I'm looking at this poor thing, I grab a leaf off of a branch and I put it
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:59
			near the caterpillar and the caterpillar within a second literally soon as it sensed or touched that
there was an object there that it was familiar with. It jumped onto the leaf, so it wanted to get
off the bike or get off my hands. So when I put it on the leaf, I let it I put the leaf down near
the tree and the caterpillar literally crawled off, walked right off the leaf went on to the tree
and that was the end of it. The cat
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:43
			filler was home. That's Allah's mercy. Sometimes Allah will use you to illustrate His mercy over
mankind. When you take care of your responsibilities. When you nurture one another, you look out for
each other, you're merciful, you're kind, you're tolerant, you're respectful. All of these things
are qualities of mercy from Allah subhana wa Tada. So when we say while documenting Allah's mercy is
above all the levels of mercy that you and I could show to each other. Because at the end of the
day, we have limits. There's only so much like if that Caterpillar bit me or I got stung by or I
don't think Caterpillar sting anything but but if he bit me, or I got infected, or I got sick,
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:54
			caterpillars would not really be my favorite insects afterwards, I'd be very cautious around them.
So we have limits to our mercy, our tolerance, not Allah.
		
00:10:56 --> 00:11:23
			Allah subhana wa tada continues to protect. At the end of the day, despite whether we're in a
pandemic, or in other situations, we're still able to wake up live, we're able to appreciate each
other. We can go to the grocery stores, we can find groceries on all the shelves. We can be we can
still find countless amounts of Allah's mercy surrounded everywhere we go everything that we do.
		
00:11:24 --> 00:12:05
			It's by Allah's mercy that as tsunamis and hit a hit heading this way, Hurricane isn't destroying
everything. And if a hurricane comes, it eventually stops, doesn't it's not continuous. And so, this
is all part an extension that Allah subhanho wa Taala despite that we may not follow his
instructions to a tee that all the mistakes that we make, Allah is still willing to show us
acceptance and tolerance. Whatever it was the Aquila Shea is the actor bouhanni Latina, takuna tuna
sacchetto Latina home Bay Area Tina, you know, here's how you get it. This is the this is the
question that we're gonna conclude with because when we hear all of these beautiful things about
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:44
			Allah's mercy, we want that so how do we get it? Alexis festa October, I am going to write down this
mercy little Athena takuna to in a second for the one that has telkwa which we've talked a lot about
in previous episodes, so that those who are conscious of the law cerametallic number two, wait to
win a second, and they're always on top of there's a cat. Well, Athena home big Tina, you know, and
generally speaking, they believe in our pet and they follow it they have faith in it. Now in
context, the Israelites are being told, follow that original message.
		
00:12:45 --> 00:13:01
			Ensure that if your total your scripture tells you to bow down, to prostrate to pray, then do it.
The next verse, Allah subhanaw taala tells us a lesbian a tibia onodera, Saul and Nabeel omig
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:50
			especially for those who follow that messenger, the, the one that is unlettered, the prophet Alayhi.
Salatu was Salam. Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he couldn't read, he couldn't write.
So who is the area talking about? Allah subhanho wa Taala, saying at the end of the day, to really
be a candidate of My Mercy, follow this man sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. That's what you need to do.
You want to know about zakat. You want to know how to do it, you want to know how to do it correctly
follow this man. This is one of those verses of many over 60 verses in the Quran. That really show
us just how important the Prophet Alayhi salat wa salam is to Allah, how much Allah loves him and
		
00:13:50 --> 00:14:40
			appreciates him how much Allah respects him. And you know what's amazing. We're talking about mercy.
And Allah called this man, you are mercy to all of mankind, you are Rama to linearly, you are the
mercy to all of mankind. So it's like, we have the mercy of Allah. And then we have the prime
example of His mercy. And then we are told to get Allah's mercy, follow his example of mercy, and
you will have the mercy of Allah subhanho wa Taala. Like, it's just beautiful. It's a complete
picture is the point. And so I pray that Allah azza wa jal continues to allow us to always do say
and behave and and do the things that allow us to be candidates of His mercy. I pray that Allah
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:59
			subhanaw taala continue to shower that on each and every one of us, whether you are Muslim or not.
We all are under a loss panels are those mercy. You know, the fact that we can wake up we can
appreciate each other we can do normal things. The fact that we can live alone is an extension of
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:24
			lust, mercy, just the fact that we're here and we're alive. And so I pray that we always get to see
and appreciate that. May Allah subhanho wa Taala shower His mercy on all of you wherever you are,
may Allah so which will bless you and honor you alone me. So I hope that verse, in some ways,
changes your life. Zach Molo hydron salaam alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
