Mustafa Khattab – Ramadan Battle

So InshaAllah, I'll say briefly

in just a few minutes.

We'll talk about

the battle that takes place that takes place

in this month between human beings and Shaitan.

And the Most High

that shaitan is your open enemy in the

shaitan

He's your open enemy.

So what does shaitan does? Because

he wants to make you lose their reward

of your good deeds in this month, he

cannot stop you from fasting, from praying, from

giving saggai. Okay. Shaitan can. If you have

the intention,

if you have the asin, the result, he

cannot stop you. But he will try to

make you lose the reward.

So for example, in the gates of Salah,

Shaitan was told to make

before Adam, but he refused.

So he cannot stop you from making to

Allah.

You know? He is mad whenever the shaitan

sees you making to Allah. He goes crazy.

I refuse to make salatah to prostrate myself

to Allah. And look at this human being,

he's making salatah to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

salami is better than me. So what he

would do, he would whisper to you.

Whenever he's that in salah,

he would try to make you lose your

focus because he will not get a reward.

Oh, man. Do I have a wudu or

not

in the first

Or the shaitan will make you show off.

Oh, I go to the masjid. I pray

all the time. I'm better than anyone. You

will lose your reward.

With the case of fasting,

shaitan will come to you before Ramadan say

Ramadan is coming. Inshallah, Ramadan starts. You'll fast

all day, go to the masjid for tarawiyah,

cry all the time, and so on. Your

bank account of Hassanat, of good rewards will

be full.

So it doesn't matter if you do something

bad now because if you lose 1 year,

1 there, it's not a big big deal

because you'll have enough credit in your account.

And after Ramadan, he will do the same

thing. You did a wonderful job, man? Ramadan.

You were crying inshallah. You fasted every day,

but your bank account, the credit is full.

There's nothing wrong if you do it, you

say you ask here and there because you

have enough credit.

And maybe, maybe, I don't know, maybe

this is why the prophet

used to fast a lot in sha'ban before

Allah,

you know, in the month. And he used

to fast after Rahman in the month of

Shawan, at least the 6 days before and

after. So you tell shaitan, you know what?

I'm not listening to you. Okay. So this

is how the shaitan does it with a

fasting.

With,

charity,

it's even worse. The shaitan will come to

you and say,

you are gonna you wanna donate a $1,000

to the masjid men. You lost your land.

Who's gonna pay your bills? You know. Your

your children will be will be starving because

of you.

You're not in your mind, man. What's going

on? You worked hard for this money, and

you wanna just give it to this?

What is this?

There are so many other people who would

pay for the masjid.

Brother has a business. This family is rich.

He will pay. You don't worry about it.

You just take care of your family because

nobody's gonna take care of your family except

you.

And 10,000?

No. No. No. No. Make it $5, man.

$5 is good. So you pay your bills,

you put food on the table, you keep

your head above the book, and I'm doing

that. So this is what Shaytan does. And

Allah

said,

Shaytan

will terrify you

in terms of poverty. He will warn you.

He will make you afraid of poverty

if you give. But Allah

promises forgiveness from him and a greater reward.

In the The whispering of the shayba is

so weak

if you have a commitment and if you

have a result.
