00:00:01 --> 00:00:26
			Assalamu alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh at home daily level salatu salam ala rasulillah So today
we are on the ninth reason that allows us to receive Allah subhanho wa Taala his love and acceptance
in this beautiful book. I'm going to just show it to you guys one last time, this particular book of
10 reasons that qualify you to receive the love of Allah subhanho wa Taala by Abdul Rahim Allah.
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:29
			So we are on
		
00:00:30 --> 00:01:12
			I guess you could say point number nine. Point number nine. If no claim Rahim Allah tells us that
try your very best to be amongst those that are honest and being those that are loved by Allah
subhana wa Island, those who have the qualities that Allah appreciate, so the sincerity, the good,
the good etiquettes when you're around people like that, and you do that you intentionally want to
associate and be amongst people like that just for the sake of pleasing Allah subhana wa Tada. There
is actually one very beautiful Hadith that I want to share with you that is found in Bahati. And
this particular Hadith is, of course, one of many a hadith that talks about honesty and sincerity
		
00:01:12 --> 00:02:04
			and so on. But this is perhaps one of the most beautiful Hadith on the subject. The Prophet alayhi
salatu was Salam tells us I lay couldn't be said for innocent piety lol bill, what in *? bidra
Yeah, de Ll Jenna. I order you to be truthful and to be amongst those that are truthful. Because
when you are truthful, it ultimately leads to righteousness. And righteousness ultimately leads you
to Jenna, may Allah subhanho wa Taala give us that Allah whom I mean, the Hadith continues, that as
long as a slave of Allah continues on the path of being honest and trustworthy, and truthful, then
they will be counted amongst those who are truthful in the earth or in gender. In other words, Allah
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:53
			subhanho wa Taala will raise the status and the honor of that individual in front of all of mankind.
Why? Because you were honest, you told the truth, you were sincere. And as a result, you love people
and people appreciated you. The Hadith also continues what he Yeah, he couldn't wait for in El COVID
de la fudo. We're in LA for Julia de la and then the Prophet alayhi salatu was Salam warns us of the
complete opposite. And he tells us I warn you about lying, because indeed lying leads to wickedness
and wickedness leads to the Hellfire, which is a bill. And then the Hadith concludes that the
Prophet alayhi salatu was Salam continues to explain, as long as somebody remains on the path of
		
00:02:53 --> 00:03:39
			being a liar, then they will be counted and written amongst those who lie in the pharaoh mela
protect us from the this Hadeeth really takes us straight to the point. If you are honest, it will
ultimately lead you to a less agenda. Now the first question here is, why is honesty so important in
life? I mean, there are obvious reasons common sense will teach you that people appreciate when
you're honest. People respect the truth. At the end of the day, even if the truth gets you in
trouble, or people will dislike it or those around you would get offended at the end of the day when
you speak the truth. It it raises a status and it gives you this level of honor and credibility in
		
00:03:39 --> 00:04:21
			this world like nothing else. When somebody is honest, you can trust them. When somebody is honest,
you know that they're sincere, but they're fighting for the truth, the living for the truth. And
these are qualities of a belief or these are qualities that Allah subhana wa tada loves and he
accepts from us. And the sister quality of honesty is an muhabba those that are beloved, and love
one another for the sake of Allah. You know, there's a beautiful story of aroma of the hot tub or
the love and he would toss and turn during the night like he would lose sleep quite often during the
nights. And some of the companions when they learnt this about or model the love mine. They would
		
00:04:21 --> 00:05:00
			ask him what keeps you tossing and turning every night. And you know what he said? He said the
reason why this happens is because I'm so anxious to see my brother in Islam more as a Bnei Jebel
rhodiola one in other words, aroma, love the more so much that he would lose sleep during the night
and this is a brother in faith. It's not even his real biological brother. He just loves him for the
sake of Alan he's tossing and turning every night because he can't wait to see more either of the
job, a lot of the love on the following day. It gets absolutely amazing.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:40
			Seeing the level that these companions took love for one another and brotherhood for each other.
Allah subhanho wa Taala encourages us to love each other for the sake of Allah. And the Prophet
alayhi salatu salam, there was a story of a man who wanted to go see his brother. So as he, you
know, got on his horse, and he starts riding, and he's going to wards to, you know, another city to
visit his brother. He came across an individual who that asked him that stopped him on the path on
the 30th and asked him, What are you doing? Where are you going? And so he says, I'm going to see a
brother of mine for the sake of Allah. And so the man asked, Do you have any purpose? Do you have
		
00:05:40 --> 00:06:25
			any reason to go see him? Because it's quite a distance from where you are. And this man said, No, I
have no reason except that I want to see him and I love him for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala.
Later on the Prophet alayhi salaatu wa Salaam heard about this incident, and told the man who was
questioning this individual seeing his brother, he told that man, go and convey to that individual
that because of his love for his brother, that Allah subhanho wa Taala loves him too. So when we
love each other, for the sake of Allah, then Allah subhana wa tada will love us in return. And when
Allah loves us, there is nothing in this world that can harm you, that could bring you down, that
		
00:06:25 --> 00:07:04
			could destroy you. You have a loves love a lead doesn't give his love to anybody. He gives His love
to people who are sincere the people who strive in His path, the people who put forth the effort,
the people who have Taqwa mess that are to the best of their ability, these are the people that
allow us panatela appreciates, and is found throughout the entire quarter. And now with that being
said, there are certain things about a company that are honest and loved. There are certain traits
and qualities in individuals like that, that you want to keep in mind that the scholars teach us. So
here I'm going to read for you a few of the qualities mentioned in a bill claims book that you
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:51
			should look for when you want to find that person and be amongst people that are honest, and that
love each other for the sake of Allah. Here's a couple things to look out for. The scholars tell us
that when you're around good company, whatever doubts you have now turned into certainty. Why?
Because you're having healthy conversations. So if you have certain things that you're unsure about,
you're doubtful about life, about religion about yourself, but you're around good company, you know,
you're around the company that is honest with you, and that truly cares about you, because why they
help you navigate those doubts into certainty so you find clarity in your life. Another quality to
		
00:07:51 --> 00:08:34
			look for is those who show off. So Ria and they replace that with a helaas and sincerity. So if they
see you or you see them or you see each other, doing things, not necessarily for the sake of Allah,
but for the sake of seeking pleasure, and admiration from people, you're no you're amongst the
truthful and the beloved, when they tell you and they help you through that and say, Look, do this
for the sake of Allah. Don't tell anybody about how much you've donated. Don't tell anybody about
all the extra rock arts and worship that you perform. Leave that for the sake of Allah subhanaw
taala so they help you reinforce and strengthen your sincerity with your Creator. Here's the third
		
00:08:34 --> 00:09:15
			quality to look for woman ALLAH hafiz. Illa Vicar. Then the scholars tell us that when you're
amongst these good people, they help you get through, they will help you get through, heedlessness
to the remembrance of Allah subhanho wa Taala. So here's here's an example. So you're around company
and when you know you see something wonderful you see a beautiful sky or a beautiful scenery. And
everybody says Masha Allah, or they say sapan Allah, look what Allah designed. Look what Allah
created. When people talk like that, then realize and understand. That's the company you want to be
around. So they're constantly helping you remember Allah, the prophet alayhi salatu was Salam told
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:29
			us in a beautiful Hadith narrated in a Timothy and it's an authentic hadith, that in this world,
there are three types of people that are exempted from the curse of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And of
them
		
00:09:30 --> 00:10:00
			the Prophet alayhi salatu was Salam tells us that the one who remembers Allah number two, the one
who helps you to remember Allah wamalwa Allah who so the one that helps you remember Allah so when
they see Okay, it's time for salud they remind you guys we need to go pray. If they see you saying
something wrong or doing something wrong, they help you through the, you know, they'll ask you like,
Dude, why are you talking to your parents? That way? They're your parents. they'll treat them that
way. So they help you do the right thing and
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:43
			third category mentioned in this Hadeeth is Allah demon omata idema, the scholar or somebody or
students of knowledge, you know, it's amazing the Prophet Alayhi salat wa sallam knows that not
every one of us will be scholars, but every single one of us will be students of knowledge. So
either you are in one category, or you're guaranteed to be in the other category. And so the point
is, is that you want to be around people that help you to keep the remembrance of Allah in your
life. Another quality to look for is those that desire during your life, instead will desire your
life. So they prioritize the Hereafter, from the worldly life meenal kibber a lot out there, from
		
00:10:43 --> 00:11:30
			pride to humility. Again, this is really important. These are the qualities that you look for, when
you're looking to be amongst good people, people that are honest, and people that love and care for
you, for the sake of Allah. So some of the qualities to look for is from pride. They help you
develop and sustain some sense of humility, to stay humble, to stay shy to stay modest in the sight
of Allah. And one of the last qualities that the scholars encourage us to look for, when you want to
be around good company that is pleasing to Allah, is that those who refuse to receive advice, are
now more inclined to listening to others and getting naziha. So if you've been a person for for some
		
00:11:30 --> 00:12:04
			time, where if somebody tells you something, or gives you a reminder, or tells you Hadeeth or gives
you an alternative of doing things, you know, a lot of people are just like, Don't tell me what to
do. Who are you, you know, you're like my son, you're like my daughter, don't talk to me that way. I
don't need to listen to you, or you don't have any You don't know anything. You don't have the right
to give me that kind of knowledge, blah, blah, blah, and it just continues. You go from that bitter
attitude, that self, that selfish attitude to now you're opening to you're not now you're open to
listen to people, when good advice comes your way you listen to good advice. I mean, even if you
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:47
			don't agree with it, you at least respect that somebody is advising you because they genuinely and
sincerely care about you. So these are some of the qualities that the scholars teach us to look out
for. So that you know you're around good company. The last thing that I want to mention to you about
Sid or about honesty, is that understand that Allah subhanho wa Taala tells us something very
beautiful in sorbitol. Allah he, you know, if we just take a quick minute and really just think and
reflect on this particular sentence of this verb. It's just amazing really puts things into
perspective. Allah subhanho wa Taala says, and so tell them, Lee Yes, sala de opin Rn CDP him, Allah
		
00:12:47 --> 00:13:31
			will ask the sadiya pain sadiya pain, the truthful ones, who is it referring to? it's referring to
the prophets and the messengers AlLahi wa sallam. One of the titles given to prophets and messengers
in the Quran, is that they are called aside your pain. They are called the truthful ones, because
that's literally what they lived for, was to hold on to the rope of Allah project their message with
truth and honesty as best as they could. They never compromised their message. They never would,
would bend or bend the truth. They wouldn't just a compromise in terms of the authenticity of their
message. They stuck to it till the end. And Allah subhanho wa Taala says about them, and said to
		
00:13:31 --> 00:14:18
			him, we're going to ask you, and we're going to question you, the prophets and messengers, if you
were really honest and truthful about projecting your message. So here's the point. If prophets and
messengers who are the most truthful human beings on the planet, if they're going to be questioned
on their honesty, then what about somebody who lies? What's going to be their position in the sight
of Allah? What about somebody who occasionally bends the truth here and there? What about if
somebody lies on behalf of Allah? You know, the prophet Alayhi salat wa sallam tells us that in an
authentic hadith, and this is one of the strongest lineages of Hadith in existence, that the Prophet
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:51
			Alayhi salat wa salam tells us that who ever lies about me about my son, about my prophetic
traditions, about my lifestyle about me as a person as a prophet. The point is, anybody who tells a
lie on behalf of the Prophet alayhi salaatu wa sallam, the prophet it sort of Sam says, let that
person reserve their spot in a less jahannam Mela. So to protect us from that. So be being truthful
guys.
		
00:14:53 --> 00:15:00
			being sincere being amongst people that are honest, loving each other and caring for one another for
the sake of
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:45
			Allah is an enormous part of our email. It's one of the fundamental aspects of our faith. And
remember, honesty and loving each other for the sake of Allah, they go hand in hand, you can't be
honest and then just hate everybody around you or you you're bitter on the inside, there has to be
that level of purity has to manifest in the way you treat people. So they go hand in hand with one
another. You'll notice and this is the last thing that I leave you with in sha Allah, you'll notice
that when you strive to be honest in life, people love you, people respect you, your own life would
become easier, better clear, you'll you'll have perspective on things, your relationships will be
		
00:15:45 --> 00:16:22
			better your marriage will become better. just life in general becomes so much more easier. You know,
somebody wants to told me it's harder for a liar to remember the lie. Because it's a lie, you
fabricate a story. So it's difficult for you to trace back when you have to continue with that
light. If you can be as accurate. And when the first time you told it, as opposed to the truthful
one, the truthful one has nothing to worry about because you're telling the truth. And the truth
will always be consistent. It's automatic, it's by default. If you're always honesty way if you're
always honest, then everything that you say will always be honest, it'll be consistent. So you have
		
00:16:22 --> 00:17:05
			nothing to worry about about retracing your words. Okay, what did I tell so and so I got to make
sure that I do the same with this person. You don't have anything to worry about that in that
regard. And so don't claim Rahim Allah mentions that once again, honesty and just loving each other
and appreciating each other for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala these are qualities that are
priority, Allah loves these qualities, Allah pays attention to qualities like this. And as a result
you get a less love, when the person has a less love, they ultimately we will end up in a lagenda
and inshallah hotel We ask Allah azza wa jal to bless us with Jenna with genital theodosian. area
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:49
			alone, mean. So this is our reminder for today in sha Allah, I want to conclude and say one last
thing about tomorrow's session, tomorrow's reminder in sha Allah, Allah is the last one. And then we
will have completed this book in sha Allah hotel. So stay tuned for that, because I'm going to
