00:00:43 --> 00:00:46
			And you can't make up for anything,
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:48
			that you did in the past. You still
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50
			can make up. You have the time. 1
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			week is is a good time to come
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			back, to turn to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56
			and to make up for anything that you
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:57
			did in the past.
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:34
			So today's means to get it closer to
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:36
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is patience.
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:37
			Sub.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:38
			Patience.
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:40
			Not only does sub gets you close to
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:43
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, but it also gives
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			you the love of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:48
			and Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will always be
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			you with you with his support
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:51
			and assistance.
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says in the Quran
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:55
			that indeed
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:57
			Allah loves those who are patient
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:00
			and Allah is with those who are patient.
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:02
			So Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will always be
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:05
			you with you and Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:07
			will love you if you are patient.
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:33
			So the scholars classify patients into 3 groups.
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:36
			So the first one is patience at difficult
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:37
			times.
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:39
			The second type is patience,
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:42
			not to do something evil. And number 3,
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:44
			patience in doing the good.
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:46
			So the first one,
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:49
			the patience at difficult times. And we all
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:50
			know this one.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:53
			So for example, if you lose a beloved
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:53
			one,
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:55
			if you lose your job,
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:57
			if your cat dies,
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:01
			all these things, they are difficult times and
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:02
			hardships for some people.
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:53
			So Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says that give
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:56
			blood tiding to those who when afflicted with
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:57
			the hardship,
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			they say to Allah, we belong and to
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:02
			Him we shall all return. For them
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:05
			is the grace and the mercy of Allah
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:07
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala and they are the ones
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:08
			who are truly guided.
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			These three rewards given in this ad are
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:13
			never given to anyone else in the
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:40
			The second type of patience
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:43
			is patience in not doing something evil.
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:45
			If you look at the story of Yusuf
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:48
			Alaihi Salam chapter 12 in the Quran, when
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:51
			the wife of the the Al Aziz of
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:54
			Egypt, she was making all the moves, try
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:56
			to get him to commit adultery with her,
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:57
			and he said no.
		
00:04:58 --> 00:05:01
			He was he could do it, but he
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:02
			said, I wouldn't do it because he was
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:05
			afraid of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. And this
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:06
			is the second type. If you get the
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:09
			chance to do something wrong, but you stop
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:11
			because of the fear of Allah Subhanahu Wa
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:14
			Ta'ala, then this is another type of patience.
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:14
			In
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:19
			Nur
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:12
			So this the third type of patience is
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:14
			patience in doing Ibadat
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:17
			like praying Fajr for example or giving your
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:19
			charity or salatah and so on and so
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:21
			forth. So in the winter the shaitan will
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:22
			come to you
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:24
			and this is a shaitan with a master's
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:25
			degree.
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:28
			He always quotes the Quran and Hadith to
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:31
			stop you from doing good. So if you
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:32
			wanna pray fast in the masjid in the
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:34
			winter, He will tell you, oh, come on,
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:36
			man. Come on. It's very cold outside. You
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:39
			will die. And Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:42
			says in the Quran, don't let your hands
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:44
			contribute to your own destruction. If you go
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:46
			outside, you will die. There's no question about
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:48
			this. They said it in the forecast last
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:48
			night.
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:50
			Yeah. There's no question.
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:52
			Okay.
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:54
			And if you manage to go outside
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:55
			outside,
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:58
			then your your car will be stuck in
		
00:06:58 --> 00:06:59
			the snow and you would die, you will
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:00
			freeze to death.
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:03
			Okay? Okay. I'm not gonna pray a fast
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:04
			in the winter.
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:06
			In the summer, the same shaitan will come
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:08
			to you and tell you, okay, come on
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:09
			man,
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:12
			You slept like 15 minutes last night. The
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			night is very short. And the prophet, salaam,
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:16
			says in the authentic hadith, and he will
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:18
			give you the chain of narrations
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:19
			that,
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:22
			your body has a right on you.
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:24
			Didn't the prophet, sasai, said this? You don't
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:27
			believe the prophet? Come on, man. Get some
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:29
			come on. Get some rest. Okay. So you
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:31
			don't pray for us in the winter, you
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:33
			don't pray for us in the summer. Okay.
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:36
			For Zakai, the same shaitan will come to
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:36
			you and say,
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:39
			If you give Zakah, your kids will be
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:39
			homeless.
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:42
			You you will not be able to pay
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:44
			your bills. Okay? You'll be in the streets.
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:46
			The Shaitan
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:52
			will always scare you of poverty. If you
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:53
			give Fisabilillah,
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:55
			then the shaitan will tell you, you will
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:57
			be homeless. You will not find you will
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:59
			not be able to put food in the
		
00:07:59 --> 00:07:59
			table.
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:46
			So this story is about the Shaitan himself.
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:48
			This old man who was blind, he was
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:49
			very close to the masjid,
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:51
			and he was on the way to the
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:53
			masjid one day, so he stumbled in one
		
00:09:53 --> 00:09:55
			of the holes that we had back home.
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:56
			Okay?
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:59
			So he cut himself, he doesn't want, he
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:00
			changed his clothes,
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:03
			he, put a bandage on, when he's cut,
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:05
			then he made the they went to the
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:07
			masjid, and he fell another time. He stumbled
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:08
			on a rock.
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:11
			Then he went home, he changed his clothes,
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:12
			he put a bandage on the cut, he
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:14
			made Bulu, and on the way to the
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:16
			Masjid, he was about to fall. Then all
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:18
			of a sudden, this man,
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:21
			Iblis, when Shaitan came in the form of
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:22
			of of a man
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:25
			out of nowhere, and he took his hands
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:27
			and he took him all the way to
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:27
			the Masjid.
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:30
			So when they went there, the man the
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:32
			old man told the Shaitan, okay, why don't
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:33
			you come and pray with us? He said,
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:36
			I don't pray. Why? Because I'm Shaitan. I
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:38
			don't pray. Okay? So he said, why did
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:40
			you do this? Why did you walk me
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:42
			all the way to the Masjid? He said,
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:45
			the first time when you fell down, I
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:48
			was afraid. I was terrified that Allah Subhanahu
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:50
			Wa Ta'ala will forgive all your past sins
		
00:10:50 --> 00:10:52
			because you you you, you stood up and
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:54
			you wanted to go and pray. You were
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:54
			patient.
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:56
			The second time when you filled out, I
		
00:10:56 --> 00:10:59
			was scared that Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala will
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:02
			forgive your entire family. The third time when
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:04
			you were about to fall down, I was
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:06
			terrified that Allah will forgive all the the
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:08
			whole town because of your deed.
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:09
			And
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:11
			I work
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:13
			overtime, all you blow and you come for
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:16
			a small deal like this, and Allah will
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:18
			forgive you. Come on, man. Come on.
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:23
			Al Aswad will answer the question was, can
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:25
			someone can a man give zakat to his
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:28
			poor mother, Huskinah? And the answer is no.
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:31
			For a man, there are certain people that
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:34
			he is not allowed to give zakat to.
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:37
			That is his wife, his children, his father,
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:37
			and his mother.
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:40
			The man has to provide for these people
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:42
			even if he is poor. You don't give
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:44
			them Zakat. This is the right on you.
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:46
			You don't give them Zakat. You give them
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:47
			you provide for them.
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:49
			So I'll go.
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:52
			Okay. The winner for yesterday is brother Yusuf
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:54
			Sharif. Where is he?
		
00:11:55 --> 00:11:56
			It's all in the face.
		
00:11:57 --> 00:11:58
			Uh-huh.
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:01
			It's got a too hard in South Africa.
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:06
			I know you. He sent me the,
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:09
			answer in an email. He sent the commasheb.
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:12
			Wallahi, he put a note on my door
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:13
			in my house.
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:40
			Has orphans,
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:44
			her husband died, and she has an amount
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:46
			of money that she should give the the
		
00:12:46 --> 00:12:48
			Zakah out. She should she give the Zakah
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:51
			out, or should she keep the money for
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:53
			the little orphans? If you know the answer,
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:55
			you may have me before tomorrow. Asa at
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:58
			CIC, imanajun, will come to Zechul Mulkar.
