You have to forgive your brothers and sisters
as well. You have to forgive your children.
You have to forgive your wife, your husband,
your colleagues, and so on and so forth.
Speaking of that, I remember my brother
told me one time that
he invited his friends to come over for,
for lunch after work, and when he came,
the food was burnt. Okay? So okay.
Big fight.
Then he, told his wife, next time I'm
gonna cook. Okay? So sit back and watch.
Right? And learn.
He told me he forgot to turn the
oven on. So by the time his friends
came, the the food was not even cooked.
Right?
You know, we make mistakes all the time.
None of us is perfect.
So why why do you expect other people
to be perfect? Right? So we have to
forgive one another.
This beautiful Ayat is Surah in this ad.
The floor,
the women, it talks about forgiveness.
Ayat number 7 17.
Allah says,
Qarib, Qarib, Ma'ala, Qarib, and Yamuz.
Right? So those who come back to Allah
Subhanahu Wa'ala after doing something wrong,
out of ignorance ignorantly or recklessly. We'll talk
about this in a second.
Then
they make Taobah soon after.
This soon after in the ayat or that
math say it means anytime before you die,
which means 30 years, 50 years. As soon
as you say, yeah, Allah forgive me, before
you die, he he is willing to forgive
you. Right? So we see how much patient
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is with us.
There are at least a couple of ayaats
in the Quran where Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
says, if he were to punish us immediately,
if we do something wrong,
no living people,
no living being will will be left on
earth.
Everything will be destroyed if if he were
to punish us immediately,
every time we do something wrong. But Allah
subhanahu wa'ala alaykaim, he gives us time to
repent.
So the part of the ayah that says
that Allah subhanahu wa'ala forgives us if we
do something wrong, ignorantly or recklessly.
Ignorantly, like you didn't know.
Recklessly, like you knew, but you didn't care.
Every Muslim knows
that setting forth who are dealing with reba
is calm. Right?
So they know the ruling, but they don't
care. So this is recklessly.
And there are those who do sins ignorantly.
They either don't know the ruling or they
know the ruling, but they make a mistake.
Right?
We do that all the time in a
gada for example. How many times have you
prayed the salah, rakatay salah at the end?
To salah.
Like you say a kiya when you are
standing and instead of fatha,
then you are sitting down, you do alfatha
instead of tashaw. A lot of people do
it. Right?
Or you are thinking about exams, you do
salamataktukah
and salatul voodoo. We do it all the
time. Right? But Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala forgives.
There are so many other mistakes that we
do in the salaat, and we don't know
about it. We just move on, and the
prophet says salaatul soon and before and after
we'll take care of that.
So mistakes in Siams, we can give we
can talk to all of us about mistakes
in Siam. Right?
The easiest one of them is you eat
or drink by mistake. And the prophet says
Allah will forgive you because Allah forgives us
if we do something wrong by mistake.
I am not sure if last year I
mentioned the story of the sister,
who I've been Muslim for a couple of
years. And one time I I was visiting
their fashion and she came to me and
said, well, I've been fasting for 2 years,
but I wanna see if I'm fasting the
right way. So I said, how do you
fast? So she said, well, I wake up
in the morning,
as the book says,
and I have a good meal, then I
continue my fasting till sunset, then falafsifthar.
So I said, what time do you wake
up in the morning? See, she said, well,
10, 11, it depends. Right? So she did
this for 2 years,
like, 2 hours before the book, she would
she would wake up and eat and continue
her fast. And I told them, you have
to do it before Falah, but she didn't
have to make up the 2 months in
the 2 past years because she didn't know
the rule that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will
forgive.
There is a story of the
it happened to me about 3 4 years
ago. I was in Edmonton at the time.
I set up I set my alarm and
I went to the masjid as I normally
do, so the alarm rang.
Me and my wife, we have the, the
sahur. I have I I eat a small
sahur, like, small yogurt and half a oramil.
Right? Then
I went to the Masjid on time as
I always do. I found only 2 cars.
Normally, for Masjid Masjid Rashid, you get at
least a 1000 people or 1500 people. For
Salat al Tuma, you get at least 5,000
people. 8, 15,000. Right? So I went
only 2 cars, and that was, like, the
10th, 11th day of Ramadan. I said, okay.
Ramadan Muslims, they come all in the 1st
few days, then no one comes for salatul
teshit. Right? Then I went inside, only a
couple of guys were sitting there reading Quran.
No one is doing adhan. No one is
doing a qaman. No one is praying. Suna,
what is this? So I told
not gonna mention the company, had a problem
with their phone, and every single one in
the masjid who is with their company came
asking the same question. I had Sahkod,
one hour of confession. And I told them,
I mentioned this, if you make a mistake,
then Allah will
forgive you because you didn't know, and ignorance
or mistake is, is is,
an excuse in Islam.
Another brother, and this is the last thing,
from Egypt, he said, we know the tradition
in Egypt. 5, 10 minutes before Adad, you
sit around the table looking at the, you
know, you can't move. Right? The soup, the
chicken, all the food. Right? So he said
that his son,
Alfred. Right? He got inside the the room,
the bedroom,
and he imitated the voice of the Moakan
in the nearby Hashem. Everyone started to eat.
10 minutes later, they realized that the, the
Moakan is making the Avan now. Right? So,
they ate before the thing. So, in this
case Allah forgave them. Same thing happened at
the time of the prophet, Hassan
went down. They ate inside Muslim and
5, 10 minutes later the sun came up
again. It was a cloudy day, so they
didn't know. They thought it was sensitive and
the prophet said continue your fast. No problem.
That was a mistake and Allah Subhanahu Wa
Ta'ala will forgive you. We ask Allah
to forgive us all in this one.
Question for last night was,
