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