The akhlifru. And we said that Allah

00:01:15 --> 00:01:17

is not happy with you when you don't

00:01:17 --> 00:01:19

ask Him, but if you ask Him, He

00:01:19 --> 00:01:20

is pleased with you.

00:01:20 --> 00:01:22

But humans, it's quite the opposite. If you

00:01:22 --> 00:01:23

ask them,

00:01:24 --> 00:01:26

okay, they smile to you, they put this

00:01:26 --> 00:01:29

screensaver on their face, they're happy, but inside

00:01:29 --> 00:01:31

there's fire, and they always make God that

00:01:31 --> 00:01:34

Allah would take you and all that stuff.

00:01:34 --> 00:01:36

So they're quite the opposite.

00:02:20 --> 00:02:23

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. Allah

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26

subhanahu wa ta'ala does not like the kuffar,

00:02:27 --> 00:02:29

and he doesn't like the ungraceful people, and

00:02:29 --> 00:02:31

he doesn't like the unjust.

00:02:31 --> 00:02:33

He said it in the Quran in many

00:02:33 --> 00:02:34

places.

00:02:35 --> 00:02:38

And human beings, if they like you,

00:02:38 --> 00:02:40

they are generous with you. If they don't

00:02:40 --> 00:02:42

like you, they don't give you nothing. Okay?

00:02:42 --> 00:02:44

So this is another difference.

00:03:04 --> 00:03:05

And

00:03:34 --> 00:03:36

by his justice, no one of us will

00:03:36 --> 00:03:37

make it to Jannah.

00:03:37 --> 00:03:39

But if he judges us with his grace,

00:03:40 --> 00:03:42

there is a big hope that none of

00:03:42 --> 00:03:43

us will go to the hellfire.

00:03:43 --> 00:03:45

This is what the scholars say.

00:04:18 --> 00:04:18

So

00:04:19 --> 00:04:21

the prophet says in this authentic hadith and

00:04:21 --> 00:04:24

Bukayi of Muslim, none of you will go

00:04:24 --> 00:04:25

to Jannah by his good deeds.

00:04:26 --> 00:04:28

So the Sahaba said, what about you, oh,

00:04:28 --> 00:04:30

Prophet of Allah? How will you go to

00:04:30 --> 00:04:33

Jannah? He said, I don't feel safe, or

00:04:33 --> 00:04:35

I don't think I will go to Jannah

00:04:35 --> 00:04:37

except by the grace of Allah Subhanahu wa

00:04:37 --> 00:04:39

Ta'ala, not by my actions.

00:04:40 --> 00:04:42

And we said, when you pray and fast,

00:04:43 --> 00:04:46

this doesn't necessarily take you to Jannah. This

00:04:46 --> 00:04:48

is a way of paying the debt back

00:04:48 --> 00:04:51

to Allah Subhanahu. He created you. He gave

00:04:51 --> 00:04:54

you eyes and ears and nose and heart

00:04:54 --> 00:04:55

and liver and kidney and all that stuff.

00:04:56 --> 00:04:59

So when you pray, you pay him back.

00:04:59 --> 00:05:01

Then at the end, he will give you

00:05:01 --> 00:05:03

the Jannah as a bonus.

00:05:04 --> 00:05:06

You didn't pay for it. For example,

00:05:24 --> 00:05:26

So if you buy a car by installments

00:05:26 --> 00:05:28

from someone, you pay them,

00:05:28 --> 00:05:31

a a $1,000 every month. So you pay

00:05:31 --> 00:05:32

off in 2 years.

00:05:32 --> 00:05:34

Then after you finish all the payments,

00:05:35 --> 00:05:37

then he gave you a house,

00:05:37 --> 00:05:38

a $300,000

00:05:39 --> 00:05:41

house. So don't say that I paid for

00:05:41 --> 00:05:42

the house. No. You paid only for the

00:05:42 --> 00:05:43

car.

00:05:44 --> 00:05:45

When you pray, fast, give,

00:05:46 --> 00:05:49

you only pay back the debt, the price

00:05:49 --> 00:05:51

for your life, and all the organs and

00:05:51 --> 00:05:53

the nam you have in your life. But

00:05:53 --> 00:05:55

Jenna is an extra bonus.

00:06:51 --> 00:06:53

160 of them. The joints of the bones

00:06:53 --> 00:06:54

in the body, 360.

00:06:56 --> 00:06:58

So every day when you wake up, you

00:06:58 --> 00:07:00

have to give salatah on behalf of these

00:07:01 --> 00:07:01

30,

00:07:01 --> 00:07:02

36,

00:07:03 --> 00:07:06

360 joints in your body. And by joints,

00:07:06 --> 00:07:08

when I say joints on you, 360

00:07:08 --> 00:07:10

joints on you, I'm not talking about wheat,

00:07:11 --> 00:07:13

k, or drugs. I'm talking about the joints

00:07:13 --> 00:07:16

of the body. Some people get me wrong

00:07:16 --> 00:07:16

sometimes.

00:07:17 --> 00:07:19

Yeah. They do. So yeah. So the prophet

00:07:19 --> 00:07:19

said

00:07:20 --> 00:07:21

to pay back

00:07:22 --> 00:07:24

Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, for this debt,

00:07:24 --> 00:07:25

the

00:07:25 --> 00:07:26

of the body,

00:07:26 --> 00:07:29

you make the kabeer and the and the

00:07:29 --> 00:07:30

remembrance of Allah.

00:07:31 --> 00:07:33

Okay? Then he said, if you wanna do

00:07:33 --> 00:07:36

all this at once, pray to rakas dua,

00:07:36 --> 00:07:38

then you pay for the 360

00:07:39 --> 00:07:40

joints you have in your body, and you

00:07:40 --> 00:07:41

get 360

00:08:00 --> 00:08:01

Also, in this,

00:08:01 --> 00:08:04

we mentioned a long time ago, the prophet

00:08:05 --> 00:08:07

used to pray until his feet were swollen

00:08:07 --> 00:08:08

and Aisha said,

00:08:09 --> 00:08:11

oh, prophetullah, you don't have to do this

00:08:11 --> 00:08:11

because

00:08:12 --> 00:08:14

everything is forgiven. You don't have to do

00:08:14 --> 00:08:14

this.

00:08:15 --> 00:08:16

He used to say, should I not be

00:08:16 --> 00:08:18

a grateful servant to Allah?

00:08:19 --> 00:08:21

When I pray, I show gratitude to Allah

00:08:22 --> 00:08:23

So when Allah

00:08:24 --> 00:08:25

gives you gender at the end,

00:08:27 --> 00:08:28

you didn't pay for it, but he's giving

00:08:28 --> 00:08:30

it to you out of his grace.

00:09:05 --> 00:09:06

Another

00:09:06 --> 00:09:08

way of looking at the generosity of Allah

00:09:08 --> 00:09:11

Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is He covers for you

00:09:11 --> 00:09:13

every time you do a mistake. Nobody knows

00:09:13 --> 00:09:16

about it. And He gives you time to

00:09:16 --> 00:09:18

make them. And remember, if every time you

00:09:18 --> 00:09:21

do something wrong, you get a slap on

00:09:21 --> 00:09:22

the face or you get a blast of

00:09:22 --> 00:09:23

fire,

00:09:24 --> 00:09:25

so that is an immediate punishment.

00:09:26 --> 00:09:28

Then, okay, Allah

00:09:28 --> 00:09:30

Again, out of his mercy, he gives you

00:09:30 --> 00:09:31

time.

00:09:31 --> 00:09:33

The last thing I wanna say,

00:10:23 --> 00:10:25

So the scholars say, every

00:10:25 --> 00:10:27

time you do a mistake or a sin,

00:10:28 --> 00:10:31

and this sin is associated with a bad

00:10:31 --> 00:10:34

smell. Say, for example, if you lie, you

00:10:34 --> 00:10:35

start to smell like a scampi,

00:10:36 --> 00:10:38

or if you steal, you start to smell

00:10:38 --> 00:10:38

like,

00:10:39 --> 00:10:42

rotten sauce. Okay? Which is the worst smell

00:10:42 --> 00:10:43

in the world.

00:10:44 --> 00:10:44

So,

00:10:45 --> 00:10:47

the scholars say, if people smell

00:10:48 --> 00:10:49

in a different way every time they do

00:10:49 --> 00:10:50

a different mistake,

00:10:51 --> 00:10:54

people will not walk in each other's Janazah.

00:10:54 --> 00:10:56

If someone dies and we know by his

00:10:56 --> 00:10:58

smell or her smell that she's a liar,

00:10:58 --> 00:10:59

she's a thief,

00:10:59 --> 00:11:01

we will leave the person in his house.

00:11:01 --> 00:11:03

Nobody will come to his salat or Janazah.

00:11:03 --> 00:11:04

We'll never take them to the graveyard. And

00:11:04 --> 00:11:06

this is out of the mercy

00:11:06 --> 00:11:08

of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. Plus,

00:11:09 --> 00:11:09

imagine

00:11:10 --> 00:11:11

if for example,

00:11:12 --> 00:11:14

you live with your wife and today she

00:11:14 --> 00:11:16

realizes that you lied

00:11:16 --> 00:11:19

or your boss at work or your friends.

00:11:19 --> 00:11:21

Your life will be miserable. So out of

00:11:21 --> 00:11:22

the mercy of Allah

00:11:22 --> 00:11:25

and his captain, his generosity is that he

00:11:25 --> 00:11:26

covers for you, and he gives you more

00:11:26 --> 00:11:29

time to make dawg. So take advantage of

00:11:29 --> 00:11:30

this great namma.
