			You can register with us, inshallah. Few spots
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:03
			are left.
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:05
			And, also if you'd like to sponsor a
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:06
			Torah, we'll give you a pass of his
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:08
			seat. Bismarck, you'll love it.
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:10
			Last night we spoke about dua
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:11
			for yourself.
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:14
			Tonight, inshallah, we'll talk about dua for other
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:15
			people.
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:18
			I'm going to start with this, beautiful story
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			from Ibn al Jawzi
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:22
			He said he was traveling one day, kal
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:23
			al Musafiran
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:26
			and he rested in a Masjid on the
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:27
			way.
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:30
			And he said while he was asleep, let's
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:32
			say after salatul Dhul, whatever salah,
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:34
			and he heard a lot of noise and
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			people were coming with Janazah.
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:39
			Right? So he said okay, let me pray
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:40
			with them Janazah, he prayed Janazah.
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43
			They left and they were carrying the body.
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			He said, I'm gonna follow them. He didn't
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			know the guy, but he said, I'm gonna
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:48
			go with them. So he prayed Janaza for
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:51
			the person that he didn't know, and he
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			followed the Janaza. He went with them to
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:55
			the grave. They weren't they buried the person,
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:58
			and after they buried the person, they left.
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			Fakal fajib too, like I wish they stayed
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:03
			to make dua for the person. They just
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:05
			put him in the hall, they covered him
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:07
			up with dust and they left. So he
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:10
			said I stayed by myself with a person
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			that I didn't know, I didn't know his
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:12
			name,
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:14
			and I started to make dua for him,
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			and I said You Allah,
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:17
			Innahaalakatnazalalaykalayfa
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:21
			This person that I don't know is your
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:22
			guest now.
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:24
			Wa'analaaarifullaa
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:27
			krantu. If he comes to me,
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:29
			and I didn't know his name, I didn't
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31
			know who he was, if he visited me
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			in my house, wallahi laujaani, I will take
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			good care of him. Now he is your
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:35
			guest,
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:38
			you know him, you know his name, you
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:40
			know everything about him, please
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			take good care of him.
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:44
			And he said I left, I went back
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:46
			to the masjid, and I slipped again,
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:48
			and in my dream I saw that man
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:50
			that I just buried and made dua for
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:52
			and he came in wide clothes and he
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:53
			was smiling
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:55
			and he said wallahi
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:55
			Allah
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:57
			honored me
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:01
			because of you. Right? Because of his dua,
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:03
			for a person that he didn't know.
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:06
			In Nabi there's a beautiful hadith,
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:08
			fih Sahib Muslim,
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:09
			Kaab
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:12
			ibnawf Malik ibnawf, sorry.
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:13
			Malik ibnawf.
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:14
			He said the prophet
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:16
			buried a man from Ansar
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:19
			and he sat by Higrayim, and he made
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			dua for him.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:30
			So he said, you Allah forgive him and
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32
			give him Jannah and this and that, this
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:35
			beautiful dua. And the dua was so powerful
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:36
			and was so emotional,
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:39
			Malik ibn Nawaf, the narrator of the hadith
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:41
			said, Faw Allah illawaditu
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:43
			an nani analmayit.
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			I wish I was the dead person in
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:47
			the grave, so Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:50
			would make this beautiful dua for me.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			There's also another hadith in Ibn Hibban.
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:55
			The prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, in this
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:57
			hadith, Aisha radhiallahu alaihi who saw him happy
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:59
			one day, she said, you Rasool Allah, you're
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:00
			in a good mood,
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:03
			make dua for me. So he made dua
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:04
			for her, and he said, Allahumma
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:06
			ilfilaa
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:06
			ishata.
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:12
			So the prophet
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			prayed for her, and he said, you Allah,
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:15
			forgive her sins.
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:17
			Whatever was done in the past, whatever would
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19
			be done in the future, whatever was done
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:21
			in public, whatever was done in secret, you
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:22
			Allah, forgive her.
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:24
			So she was so happy,
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:26
			and, Fata'ala Nabi
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:30
			Are you amazed because of this dua for
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			you? She said, yes. This is a beautiful
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:34
			dua. Fata'ala Nabi
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:41
			He said, wallahi, this is the dua I
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:43
			make for my ummah in every salah, every
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:46
			namaz, I pray. You Allah forgive for my
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:48
			ummah everything that they did in the past,
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:50
			whatever they will do in the future, whatever
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:52
			they do in public, whatever do they do
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:54
			in secret. So the prophet sallahu alaihi wa
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:56
			sallam is keeping us in his dua.
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:58
			We know that when you make dua for
		
00:03:58 --> 00:03:59
			someone
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:01
			an angel will say
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:04
			and you will get the same. So let's
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:05
			say
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:08
			if someone got laid off or someone Allah
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:10
			has not blessed them with money
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:13
			and sometimes when Allah are sitting next to
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:15
			people in the masjid, they are going through
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:17
			a difficult time, they are fighting a battle
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:19
			that you know a little bit about and
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:22
			You need to make Dua for them.
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:23
			If someone is looking for a wife or
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:25
			a husband for a long time make dua
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:27
			that Allah will give them a good person
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:29
			If someone was laid off or someone
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:31
			is new to this country and they're struggling
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			Every beginning is difficult, make dua that Allah
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:36
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala would make it easy for
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:38
			them I I know some people in the
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:41
			Jama'at here, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala has tested
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:42
			them with cancer,
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:45
			they go for chemotherapy, and they're struggling,
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:47
			and, O Allah, I always make dua for
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:49
			them, that Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala will bless
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:51
			them with shifa and make it easy for
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:53
			them. Some people in this jawa'at, I know
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:55
			them personally, they have been married for so
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:57
			many years, and Allah has not blessed them
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			with kids. I make dua for them in
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:02
			every salah. So this is something that we
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			need to do, to make dua for each
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:04
			other.
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:05
			That Allah
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:08
			will make it easy for people and make
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:10
			dua for them, and every time you make
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:12
			dua for for someone, Allah
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:14
			will say, walaka mifdhu.
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:16
			The Malayik will say and Allah will give
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:18
			you the same. Allah will give you the
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:19
			reward for doing the dua, and so on
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:21
			and so forth. So make sure inshallah you
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:23
			make dua for each other, bivaar al ghay,
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:25
			without them even knowing.
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:27
			And this is the most beautiful gift that
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:28
			you can give to someone is to make
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:30
			dua for them. And this is something that
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:32
			we can learn from the month of Ramadan,
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:34
			as I mentioned last night, in the ayah
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:36
			that talk about Ramadan and fasting in Surah
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:38
			Al Hakkar 1 83 to 187.
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:41
			Wa'idha salaka ivali aani fa'inipari.
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:43
			In the middle of the ayah that talk
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:45
			about Ramadan and fasting, it talks about dua.
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:48
			Allah says, when my servants ask you, Muhammad
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			salallahu alayhi wa sallam, about me, I'm truly
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:53
			near. I answer their Dua. Whatever they ask
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:55
			for, I give it to them. So don't
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:56
			be shy to raise your hands and ask
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:57
			Allah
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:59
			in this hadith in Bukhari.
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:10
			Allah is shy when you raise your hands
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:12
			to to Him asking for something
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:15
			that He would turn them in like he
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:17
			would turn you empty handed. You always come
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:19
			back with something in your hands if you
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:20
			raise them and ask Allah
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:22
			So we ask Allah
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:24
			to make us among those who pray for
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:26
			themselves and others.
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:29
			The question for last night was, there is
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:31
			an animal in the Quran was accused of
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:33
			a crime that he didn't do.
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:37
			And this miskin innocent animal is the wolf.
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:38
			Waqalahu
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:41
			vid. So in the story of Yusuf alaihis
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:43
			salam, the wolf was falsely accused of killing
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:46
			Yusuf alaihis salam. He didn't do it. Right?
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:49
			And the winner is, brother Yusuf and Yassine,
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:50
			if they are here.
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:52
			I'm not sure if they made it. They
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:52
			have,
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:54
			it's very late for them. But I know
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:56
			they're dead. I'm gonna give it to him
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:56
			inshallah.
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:59
			The question for tonight, there is a man
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:02
			in the Quran. There's an entire Surah named
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:03
			after him
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:04
			and
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:06
			He's not a prophet. He's just a regular
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:08
			man. So if you know the answer, you
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:10
			can email me before tomorrow at imamastafatlanatoliacenter.cw.
