00:00:10 --> 00:00:12
			So today InshaAllah I'm gonna continue what I
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:15
			started last time. So I spoke about 10
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:17
			things that we need to be doing to
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:17
			get ready,
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			to go, inshallah.
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:20
			So,
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:42
			So
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:43
			number 3,
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			be like a juggler in this dunya and
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:47
			this is based on the authentic Hadith and
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:49
			the Nabi sah Sanafil Bukhari.
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:57
			Be in this dunya like a traveler
		
00:01:58 --> 00:01:58
			or,
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:01
			someone who is staying somewhere like a stranger
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:02
			or a traveler.
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			And I I said this this dunya is
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			very short anyway.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:09
			The Quran talks about 2 types of days,
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			for Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. Regular days,
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:14
			heavenly days, they are 1000
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			years by our calculations,
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:18
			and the day of Yahu Q'ayam would be
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:19
			50,000.
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:22
			If I said, if you put it in
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:22
			perspective,
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:25
			a regular day for Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:27
			is 1 1000 years of our calculations.
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31
			So based on this from the time of
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:32
			the prophet
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:33
			until our time,
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:36
			1500 years is a day and half for
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. And you Muftiama
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:40
			50,000 is is a long time.
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:47
			So the Prophet SAW Alaihi Wasallam said in
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:49
			the Hadith, the 50 1000 years on Yawmul
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:51
			Qiyamah or the Day of Judgment, this would
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:52
			be for the Kafir. It would be very
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:54
			long for them. And as for the believer,
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:56
			it would be like the time you spend
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:59
			in salah, 7 minutes, 10 minutes max.
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:02
			This is the time for the believer, Yawmul
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:05
			Qiyamah, very short. The standing for judgment.
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:06
			And we,
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:09
			I mentioned the time relativity,
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:12
			the same time for someone might be different
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:14
			from another. It is exactly the same time.
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:15
			And I I gave the example
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:18
			of someone in their honeymoon and they for
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:18
			them
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:20
			goes by like 5 minutes.
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:23
			But for someone who is going to jail
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:25
			for the first time, the first day they
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:27
			spend in jail, it's like a year. They
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:29
			are alone for them, very heavy and very
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:30
			difficult. So this is the,
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:32
			the time relativity.
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			For Nabi'u SallAllahu Alaihi Wa Salam Yahuwul
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:37
			Yani to be successful in this, in this
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:38
			Dunya and in Athra
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:17
			So this is the best way to look
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:17
			at life.
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:20
			You just imagine that all of us here
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:22
			are on a train, a GO train going
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:24
			from Toronto to Niagara Falls.
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:26
			So every bus stop, some of us have
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:29
			to get off. They die, in other words.
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			So some of us have to get off
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:31
			in Mississauga,
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:33
			some in Oakville, some in Burlington,
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:35
			some Hamilton,
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:37
			some Saint Albans, and by the time the
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:39
			bus goes to Niagara Falls, the bus is
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:40
			empty.
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:41
			You know, all of us will leave this
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:44
			bus. So the only difference is
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:47
			some of us leave before others. You look
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:48
			at it this way.
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:04
			For those who don't think this way, they
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:06
			think they are here to stay, there's no
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:09
			judgment, there's no qiyamah, nothing, they will do
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:11
			terrible things. Right?
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:49
			So, they have this joke in Egypt. You
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:51
			know, Mubarak stayed in in, you know, in
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:53
			office for more than 30 years.
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:54
			So,
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:57
			and and for those who are looking at
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:58
			him, like someone my age,
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:02
			well you have my younger brother, he was
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:03
			born in 1981,
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:06
			the same year that Mubarak became president.
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:07
			So my brother,
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:11
			Yani lived his whole life during the presidency
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			of Mubarak. Right? He got married, he had
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:14
			kids,
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:17
			and some of us were thinking that maybe
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:20
			we will die and Qiyamah will be established,
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:23
			will go to Jannah during his time. Like
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:25
			like these days like you can t see
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:25
			the end.
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:26
			So they
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:29
			say that he was given a turtle,
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:32
			a special turtle and he was told
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:34
			this turtle lives for 400 years.
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:38
			And he said we will see. Like InshaAllah
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:39
			I'm gonna be there and I'll see what
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:41
			happens after 400 years.
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:08
			No one takes money with them when they
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:10
			leave this world. The only thing you take
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:12
			is what you eat, what you drink, the
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:15
			place where you sleep and the clothes you
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:18
			use. Anything else you leave behind you. Ta'ma?
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:19
			Fa'achavalur
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:21
			in this sense, maybe you would take a
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:23
			pack or 2 alkhaz but you don't carry
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:24
			like a truckload
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:26
			with you when you are traveling.
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:27
			Lamatooahalal
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:28
			tayar.
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:32
			Bitaabu Makar carry on, witaabu1 luggage, walaasah aa
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:34
			kim. In the matawood, a truckload
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:35
			of baggage,
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:38
			they will either charge you or they will
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:39
			tell you leave everything behind.
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:41
			And when we go to the grave, we
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:42
			don't take anything with
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:43
			us. فِيawwarsaluwwwanabillah.
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:53
			When you leave this world,
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:55
			keep in your mind
		
00:08:56 --> 00:08:58
			that whatever you think of Allah subhanahu wa
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:00
			ta'ala, He is way better than that. If
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:02
			you think Allah will forgive you and give
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:04
			you Jannah and put you in a firdav
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:06
			salaam, Allah is way better than what you
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:07
			think.
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:12
			Allah
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:21
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:24
			So we ask Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala always
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:26
			to judge us based on His grace, not
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:27
			justice.
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:31
			Justice, it will be very difficult for almost
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:33
			all of us to go to Jannah. But
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:35
			if it is by His grace, then we
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:37
			have hope that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:38
			give us Jannah.
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:09
			So in this hadith which is questioned by
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:09
			some Alemah,
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:12
			the Prophet SAW Alaihi Wasallam said that on
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:14
			the day of judgment Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala,
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:18
			you he would forgive like, would give immensely,
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:20
			he would be forgiving all the time, so
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:22
			much so that Iblis
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:24
			will think that he will be forgiven as
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:25
			well.
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:28
			This shows you the magnitude of his mercy,
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:30
			but the problem is some of us
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:31
			will
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:34
			take advantage of this and they stop working.
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:35
			Like if they hear me say this,
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:49
			So you should also do your job and
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:50
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will take care of
		
00:10:50 --> 00:10:53
			the rest. You shouldn't rely on on this
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:55
			particular hadith, you should also do your best.
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:08
			The mercy and the forgiveness of Allah subhanahu
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:11
			wa ta'ala is for those who work and
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:12
			this is based on the Quran.
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:15
			And even if they fall short, He will
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:17
			take care of it. But if you do
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:19
			haraa or you don't do halaa and you
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:21
			think that Allah will give you jannah or
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:25
			rafirdawsillahala, you are this is waste of time,
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:27
			you are wasting your time. You have to
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:29
			do your best and Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:31
			will take care of the rest.
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:03
			So if you want to say La Illa
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:05
			Illa Allah or you want to die in
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:06
			a state of sujood,
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:09
			then you have to be constantly doing these
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:09
			things.
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:13
			But if someone doesn't pray at all, how
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:14
			do you expect them to die in sujood?
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:17
			Like it's not practical. If someone doesn't say
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:20
			La ilaha illallah or doesn't say Altaar, how
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:21
			do you expect them to say La ilaha
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:23
			illallah before they die? It becomes heavy for
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:23
			them.
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:38
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says, I will only
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:39
			forgive
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:42
			those who make tawba soon after they commit
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:43
			sin.
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:09
			So Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says in Surah
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:11
			Al Nisa that Allah will forgive those who
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:13
			make tawba soon after,
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:16
			And soon after according to Umvasireen
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:19
			it means anytime before your death.
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:22
			3 years after the sin, 5 years down
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:24
			the road, but the problem is we don't
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:27
			know when we are going to die. So
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:29
			if you say I'm still young, I still
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:29
			have time,
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:32
			then this is a big problem because you
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:34
			never know when it is time for you
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:35
			to go. So it is better to do
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:36
			it right away.
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:52
			So the Prophet says if someone
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:55
			makes tawba before
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:58
			they started dying then Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:13:58 --> 00:13:59
			will forgive them.
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:13
			But in the story, in Surah Yunus in
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:15
			the story of Faraun, he wanted to make
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:17
			tawba before he died, that was like in
		
00:14:17 --> 00:14:19
			the last seconds of his life and his
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:21
			tawba was not accepted
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:23
			because it's too late already.
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:54
			So in Surah Ma'i
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:56
			in Surah Tawba,
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:59
			Khadil who killed his brother,
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02
			according to the surah he became regretful and
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:05
			remorseful. And this is like 100 of years
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:07
			before he died but Allah didn't forgive him.
		
00:15:07 --> 00:15:11
			Nabi salalagabu alfirhadidil lazaih and nadam mutawba.
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:12
			If you do something wrong
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:16
			and you feel regretful and remorseful in your
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:18
			heart, even without saying You Allah forgive me,
		
00:15:18 --> 00:15:20
			Allah will forgive you. If you feel bad
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:22
			about it in your heart, and nada mutawba,
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:23
			regretfulness,
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:25
			is tawba in the in the eyes of
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:27
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. But in this case,
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:30
			in the story of Khabeel Surah Mahidah, he
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:33
			killed his own brother and he became regretful
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:35
			and remorseful based on the Quran, but Allah
		
00:15:35 --> 00:15:37
			never forgave him. Why?
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:54
			Because he couldn't bury the body of his
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:55
			brother.
		
00:16:56 --> 00:16:58
			So not because he killed his own brother,
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:00
			and this is why his his Nadam is
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:02
			not considered Tawba in this case.
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:32
			And they took the money, they fled,
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:34
			and they went to a cave in a
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:37
			remote place. And one of the thieves started
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:38
			to cry.
		
00:18:38 --> 00:18:41
			Fatima, the ringleader, the head of the thieves,
		
00:18:41 --> 00:18:43
			said, what's wrong with you? Are you repenting
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:45
			or something? Why are you crying?
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:49
			I am not crying because of this. I
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:50
			am crying
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:52
			because we stole so much money, it is
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:54
			gonna take us about a month to calculate
		
00:18:54 --> 00:18:55
			how much we stole and I want my
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:56
			share light away.
		
00:18:57 --> 00:18:57
			So
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:00
			the the the the real leader said, you
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:02
			idiot, we don't have to count anything. Just
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:05
			give give us 15 minutes and the CBC
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:07
			will announce in about 10, 15 minutes that,
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:08
			$50,000,000
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:10
			have been stolen and we are gonna divide
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:12
			the money based on this. You don't have
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:15
			to do anything, very smart chore, very smart.
