So the reason why some Muslims don't feel
or taste the sweetness of rebalah
is because rebalah for them is a burden.
It's a burden on their shoulders.
So, for example, salah is a burden, and
this is what Allah says in the Quran.
It's a burden on those who don't have
kushur and don't have tafar. It's very hard
for them.
So, for example, the Imam Ghisayi said, It's
an extra aya. It's the end of the
world for them. Sign a petition. Fire fire
the shayf. Get somebody else.
Or
if it is Ramadan, they pray all month
long that Ramadan this year would be 25
days only.
And I gave this story of 1 of
the brothers who were in South Carolina,
28th, and we were we were starting the
moon to see if tomorrow is April or
the day after tomorrow. And the brother
fell down on his knees in the masjid,
and he said, brother, I beg you. Please,
let me kiss your hands. Please, big daddy,
tomorrow I can't fast anymore. Enough.
So when we actually saw the moon and
we said that tomorrow is 8, he was
dancing in the masjid. He was so happy.
Zakat, why 2.5%,
man? Make it 2.3%.
Why?
It's always like this. So Ibadah is difficult
and, you know, except for those who understand
the value of Ibadah. So in this case,
they love it. It's a a source of
comfort and relief for them.
So the salah was a sort of comfort
and a source of relief for the prophet
salah. So every time he told Bilal radiAllahu
anhu to make the Kaaba to pray, he
told he told him,
make a kamal, give us relief through salah.
And another hadith, when it was difficult for
the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam or whenever
he was overwhelmed
with difficulties,
he sought relief in salah. This this is
what the Hadith say.
Also, Ibadah was a way of showing gratitude
and thanks to Allah
So even Khaleem Bukhari Muslim, when the prophet
used to pray at night until his feet
were swollen, and Aisha
would say, oh, brother, you don't have to
do all this. Your past and future, everything
is forgiven. He would say, should I not
be a grateful servant to Allah? So imanah
was a way of showing gratitude.
When the prophet came out of Khalif, the,
Muslim of Zimazat,
and
the soomu
zakatul jeseb.
So fasting is a source of showing gratitude
to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. 1, because he
made it easy for you to fast. There
are a lot of people who are old,
they can't fast. A lot of people who
are sick, they can't fast. Some people passed
away,
they died,
they didn't fast.
Some Muslims
don't fast, they are not practicing their religion.
Some kuffar or kuffar, they don't fast. So
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala honored you by allowing
you to fast, making it easy for you
to fast.
Also, when you fast, you feel or you
have the feeling of the poor and the
homeless and the needy. They don't feel, eat
any time they feel like to. When you
eat iftar at Marik and you eat all
the chicken sukhaar, beef sukhaar, biryani and all
the good food.
Some people
don't have this kind of
good light.
They fast during the day and they fast
during the night. There's nothing to eat.
So when you fast, remember the name of
Allah
and show gratitude and thanks because you are
better than so many people. You are one
of the chosen few.
So we conclude with this story about Salah.
It was time it was in the Taraweeh
so the Imam looked at the people and
he says straighten your lines fill all the
gaps. So these 2 brothers they stood next
to each other and they hated each other.
So they left a big gap between them.
So the imam keeps telling them fill in
the gaps, close the gaps. And they didn't
listen to him. The imam said I'm not
gonna start the salah until you fill in
the gaps. They said, no. They pretended they
didn't hear him. So the imam said, brothers,
if you don't close the gaps, the shaitan
will come and pray in between you. And
he said it like 50 times. 1 of
them, he got so mad, Steam was coming
out of his and he said, listen, imam.
Listen.
Why do you hate the shaitan too much?
Let him come and pray with us. May
Allah will give him a day. Guide us.
