Mustafa Khattab – Ramadan Gems 3
AI: Summary ©
The speaker discusses the importance of praying only for Allah Subhanahu Wa'ala, rather than thinking about the pleasures of the worship. He explains that while a mechanical worship is not a genuine rab'am, a pure Reb dedicated to the same thing is a genuine rabble. The speaker also suggests that praying only for Allah Subhanahu Wa'ala is a pure Rebala, and that it is necessary to give oneself sincerity during a situation where the situation is losing control.

I can hear a lot of talking in
the back. Also, after we're finished, when we
leave outside, they're leaving, go to your car.
We'll make a lot of noise because as
we said, our neighbors are asleep. And, some
of us, we make a lot of noises
and
When you come to Friday, for example, you
go because just your family comes to Jummah.
You fasten Allah just because your family fasten
Allah or because your cousin fasten Allah.
But you are not doing it because you
are convinced it is the right thing to
do. You're not doing it because you are
convinced it
is the right thing to do. You're not
doing it to get the reward. So this
is the mechanical worship. You do it just
mechanical without thinking about
it. The mechanical worship does not have an
impact on you. It doesn't make you a
better person.
Whereas a jimul worship,
you do it purely for the sake of
Allah Subhanahu Wa'ala. Your heart is there when
you are doing it, and you are doing
it and
it makes you a better person.
And this is why Allah Subhanahu Wa'ala when
he speaks about salah, for example, in the
But if you do a Hibara mechanically,
for example, if you say a shahad,
you say the shahad mechanically
without thinking about the being
and without doing the requirements to become a
good Muslim, then you shahad becomes basically, like,
chanting
you shahada becomes basically like chanting and singing.
When you pray mechanically,
faster than life, so the burden will be
off your shoulder,
then this is not a genuine rabadah. This
is a mechanical rabble. And Allah subhanahu wa'ala
says in Surah al Baqarah.
See comfort and help in salah. And indeed
it's a burden except in those who humble
themselves to Allah subhanahu
So it's a burden on some people.
So when you pray mechanically,
faster than light, you are not thinking about
what you're saying. You said
quickly as some people do, this is not
a genuine Rebekah. This is a
mechanical Rebekah.
So this is the mean, if this is
the case, if you pray mechanically,
you'll saw it's no more that yoga. Some
people pray like this, you know, they do
this. The movements, physically,
physically, but, spiritually, this is not salah. When
you give your salah mechanically, this is nothing
more than paying your GST. You do it
so you don't go to jail.
You give your zakat so you don't go
to Jahannik,
but you don't do it out of love
for Allah to have to help the poor
and to give it a reward.
When, for example, you do the ash
and you do it in Khadim, just to
give the side of Hajji. Some people do
it for this. And some people, they are
happy. They love titles.
They would study for 7 years to give
the the title of doctor, PhD, professor.
And some people just pay $10,000
to go to Mecca and give the title
Hajj.
And these people would be dancing in the
street when they die because they will give
the title.
They will not fight them so much. Okay?
So if this is what you do, you
do have mechanically,
and you make the laws around the Kaaba,
this is nothing better than jogging around the
beach or physically to say it because your
heart is not there. So Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala is telling us in the Qur'an and
also in Khadim, in the prophet that
you have to make a better genuinely to
be sabiilah.
Purely for the sake of Allah Subhanahu wa'ala.
The second point is which is a genuine
Rebala would make you a better you. It
will have an impact on you. You do
it
because as I said last night, what is
the point if you pray
but you lie?
You fasted on a lie and you steal.
You see, you do it mechanically. If you
do it the right way, it will make
you a better Muslim. You do it purely
for the same of Allah Subhanahu Wa'ala. When
it's lost.
I'm gonna conclude with this story,
and I
masjid all the time, so he wants to
he wanted to propose and marry the sister.
So, of course, he's family because she was
from our background, and this is what the
sisters do. Her family did the background check
on the brother. Your history, from the name
of the lord, the name of the name
of the prophet. This is what happens.
And this is why when he didn't get
married to his sister, there was no reason
for him to come to the masjid, so
he stopped coming altogether.
There's no sincerity.
We have to go to the masjid to
give us sincerity.
A question for last night,
