And the point today,
related to fasting is.
So Allah
speaks about
in the Quran.
And the last form of of is the
beautiful.
Beautiful patience.
Some people will something opposite that they protest.
Other people may accept.
But the highest form of patience in Islam
is to accept without complaint.
This is what it means to have a
subtle journey, beautiful patience. And the word is
used in and
many other places in the Quran.
Some people when you ask them about something,
they always complain.
You ask them, how are you doing?
Or anything. You just ask them, how are
you doing? They say, you know, Alhamdulillah, but
my brother is sick.
How's your job? Yeah. Alhamdulillah, I'm good. But
my husband was just tired. Something like this.
They always complain. Even when they say Alhamdulillah,
even in this community, who come to me
and they cry
because they have a medical condition and they
can't fast,
you know. So they envy you because you
fast for 17 hours, but you just you
don't appreciate this time.
Some people, they ask me, and they come
also cry because he cannot come to the
masjid. They don't have a line in the
masjid. They live far away. And some people
cry because they cannot stand in salat alqin
just like you do. They have to sit
in a chair, you know. And they say,
I wish I can't stand but I have
a bad problem
and, you know, and they cry because they
can't stand in salah thinking they will not
get the full reward. And I always tell
them, Allah
will give you the reward for doing your
best even if your best is not good
enough, you know. The
prophet says that if you want to appreciate
the nam of Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala
in you, look at those who are less
fortunate than you, not those who are better
than you. This will make you appreciate the
nam. A long time ago, I learned that
This will make you appreciate the net.
A long time ago, I learned a lesson
from 1 of the, leavers leavers, one of
the Hebrews of brothers,
his name was Ben, and he said something
very beautiful.
He said,
if you are thankful to Allah
he will give you more to thank for.
But if you keep whining, he is gonna
give you more to whine about.
This is very thing and even, you know,
it has there's something similar in Surah to
Rahimah in Shaha'atul Aziz An Nam. So it
is actually in the Quran. So stop and
play.
There was a story I mentioned in the
story a long time ago, someone who was
talking to a spirit. They were walking in
the street and they passed by some palaces
and builders and nice place. So instead of
a shrine, where were we when the most
common of Allah was dividing these palaces among
people?
So I explained to him to the hospital
and he took him to the
The worst thing you can do in this
life is to complain about Allah
to human beings.
He says, don't do this. You know what?
I'm gonna give you a secret.
For the last 40 years, 40,
I have not been able to see with
one of my eyes, and I never told
anyone. Even my wife doesn't know. But I
just I'm telling you, so you know that
you have to keep it for yourself and
not complain.
But this does not mean if you have
a medical condition and you go to the
doctor or they, call the ambulance, the 911.
They take they take you to the doctor
and they ask you what's what's wrong with
you. You keep your mouth shut because you
don't want to complain because this is different.
You know, you have to tell the document
this is completely different. This is not complaining.
The question from last ayah was the last
ayah revealed in the Quran, it is ayah
281.
His Surah Al Bin Ba'al
qawjawatimullah.
According to the
and the ayah says, be mindful of the
day that all you will be returned to
Allah
for judgment, and every song will be paid
in full, and nobody will be dealt with
injustice. This is the last verse revealed to
the the bronze and
the door of revelation
was closed forever after this ad. And the
winner is brother Kevin. I think he left.
We're gonna give him the prize,
tomorrow.
The question for tonight, Allah
swears by inspiration in the Quran. He swears
by the sun, by the moon, by the
stars, different things. Allah swears
in the Quran with the life of a
human being, just one type.
