what could be the audience Allah Allah Wakulla glutton for now I'm about

00:06:24--> 00:07:02

I ask Allah subhana wa Taala just as he is gathered gathered us here today on this day with Gemma May Allah subhanho wa Taala gather us on the Day of Judgment with our families in Jeddah for those of Allah in the companionship of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Amira aalameen, we ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to make our last Amahl, our best amenable Alameen. Brothers and sisters, this has been said so many times, but we have to be reminded over and over again, that many of us we have challenges. There's no doubt we all have various types of challenges. Every person sitting here in this gym has different types of challenges. Sometimes those challenges are related to our finances.

00:07:02--> 00:07:39

Sometimes those challenges are related to our families. Sometimes those challenges are related to the future, what exactly is going to happen? We have this constant worry, this anxiety, that and this worry and concern that what's going to happen in the future? What does the future hold for me, the reason why we hustle and we bustle so much. The reason why we try to do whatever we can to earn so much money is because we have this anxiety that God forbid what if I don't have a financial income source? What if I don't have money coming in, I have enough that I can take care of my family, what's gonna happen to my children what's gonna happen to the faith in the Islam of my

00:07:39--> 00:08:28

children, we always have these kinds of anxieties. And Allah subhanho wa Taala through his sheer mercy and through his Rockman he has given us the solution to majority of the problems that you and I we go through on a daily basis, whether it is the ayat of the Quran, and the stories that are mentioned in the Quran. Because according to the hadith of Rasulullah, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, there are three there are 124,000 124,000 Ambia that were sent by Allah subhanho wa taala. And there were 310 An odd amount of number of Rasul and messengers that was sent by Allah subhanho wa taala. And out of all of these people, out of all these messengers and prophets, Allah subhanho wa Taala

00:08:28--> 00:08:49

chose to mention only a handful of their stories in the Quran, because Allah knows, within his own infinite wisdom, the challenges that you and I will face, and these stories will serve as a way to console us, it will provide us solutions, and SubhanAllah. When we can't find our solution in the Quran.

00:08:50--> 00:09:29

We always resort back to the CEDAW of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and we go and research and dive into the seed of the Prophet alayhi salam. And I tell you honestly, that if you do not find your solution and your answer in the Quran, you will most certainly find it in the Cedar of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and that is why I've talked about this before that we need to stay the life of the prophet saw Salem because it is rich, and it is filled with gems and lessons and reflections. Today Inshallah, in this brief hood, bam, I want to talk about that. How do we overcome our fears? A lot of times we are put in a situation we don't know exactly what to do. So

00:09:29--> 00:10:00

there are few steps that we can take in order to help us overcome anxiety or fears, whether it's something that has already taken place, something that we are in or something that may happen in the future. The very first thing that we have to always understand is that we put our trust in Allah subhana wa Tada. We put our trust in the system of Allah subhanho wa Taala and that means that I don't need to know the Hikmah and the wisdom behind everything. But when I say that, I believe in Allah, what II

00:10:00--> 00:10:47

Imam is when we recite the Quran and SOTL Bacara Allah says Allah Vina, you mean Hoonah believe that you believe in the unseen believe is not only that, I believe that ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala exists. You don't only believe that I worship Allah subhana wa Tala and he is the only one who is worthy of worship. And I believe in Rasul allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, but Iman also implies that we put our trust in Allah subhanho wa taala, that whatever Allah is doing, yes, I may not understand the hekman that wisdom, but I put my trust in Allah subhanho wa Taala that he is calm will Harkey mean, he is the source of all wisdom. And he knows what he is doing. Yes, we see what has happened in

00:10:47--> 00:11:32

Syria. Yes, we see what has happened in Turkey. But at the same time, and yes, our hearts, our condolences, our do is go out to those the families who have been affected. But at the same time, when these kinds of things happen, you have to take a step back and say, I don't know what is going on. But I do know that Allah made this happen. And I put my Eman and ALLAH SubhanA who were to honor it is that these kinds of times that often our iman is put to test, what is our response? And therefore we find even in the Quran, so many times I yet were revealed by Allah subhanho wa taala. And one of the key things that Allah wanted to see, after the ayat were revealed was what is the

00:11:32--> 00:12:13

response of the people when the Quran when the ayat will reveal about the changing of the Qibla? Think about it for a moment, three times Allah subhanho wa Taala mentioned for onely wotja. Haka, shatterer, Al Masjid Al haram, that turn your face to the Kaaba, why three times wasn't one time sufficient. But Allah subhanho wa taala, according to many of the ALMA of the McPherson on, they say that one of the key things was, Allah wants you to see the response of the people. So when these kinds of things happen, Allah wants to see our response. And at that time, if a person says, I don't understand the situation, but I put my trust in Allah subhanho wa taala, just like a loving mother,

00:12:13--> 00:12:55

just like a loving father, when they tell their kids to do certain things. The kid does not understand the Hikmah and the wisdom. But years later, when we have become teenagers, when we become adults, we look back at our mother and our father. And we thank them for that. Why? Because at that time, we never understood their wisdom. But now as parents, not when we see they were how they did things in our life, when we were kids. Now we appreciate them. Because brothers and sisters at that time, our minds were so furred. Our minds were so immature at that time. And they were so small at that time, that we cannot understand wisdom. We cannot understand the wisdom behind certain things

00:12:55--> 00:13:39

that our parents are telling us. Likewise, Allah is even more loving to our parents. Allah is even more merciful than our own parents. So do you think that Allah subhanho wa Taala will do something out not out of wisdom, Allah has wisdom behind every single thing. When we look at the story of Musa alayhis salam. This is a story by the way that is mentioned in a sutra, the story of the mother or the mother of Musala, his son is mentioned in a sutra that begins with the concept of iman, in the very beginning of the surah. Allah subhanho wa Taala says that we you recite these verses of the Quran, but they can only be effective towards a person who believes in Allah. Because if you don't

00:13:39--> 00:14:22

put your trust in Allah, then you will lose your iman and Allah Subhana Allah to Allah. So Allah says, the criteria to understanding this story is that you have to have belief in Allah subhanho wa taala. And you have to have trust in Allah system. When Musala your son's mother is being told that put your child in a basket, this who would any person would any parent, in their sane mind, put their baby put their child in water? No, we don't even find that happening. Even nowadays, when the bathtub gets only this much field. Parents sometimes can lose their mind because they're worried about the safety of the child. Think about putting a child in the river in a basket and the best

00:14:22--> 00:14:59

basket can flip over. There are animals in that river. And not only that, but that river will pass by whose Palace it will pass by Fidel's palace. But when Allah subhanho wa Taala tells the mother a Musala Islam put him in the basket. That is where she said that I put my trust in Allah subhanho wa Taala logic tells me that this doesn't make sense. Logic tells me that if I'm trying to protect my child, why would I put him in water? Logic tells me that if I'm trying to protect him from fifth Island, and this river is gonna pass by fit on his palace, how does that make sense? But when it comes to making sense of

00:15:00--> 00:15:40

putting art to local and believing Allah subhanho wa Taala than Tawakkol supersedes the logic. And that is where we put our trust in Allah subhanahu wa to Allah and that is why she put Musa alayhis salam in the basket. And that is why Allah subhanho wa Taala even highlighted this because a mother she is filled with emotions. As the basket is going away. She can call out and say, That's my baby. That's my baby. That's my child, and the soldiers would have caught that child. But as she's watching this child go away, she's in a position that she is completely helpless. She's in a position that she is completely out of control. She has no control over the situation. If she's

00:15:40--> 00:16:23

called out, the baby will die. If she leaves a child, the baby will probably die. But that is why Allah subhanho wa Taala he tells us in the Quran, when you put your trust in Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah rewards you for that trust. And Allah subhanho wa Taala set to the mother musalla you some laughter hoffy wala has any Do not fear about what's going to happen. Do not be regretful over your decision. In rod Do you Lake What are you doing and we're setting we will return him to you. And we will make him a prophet. Think about if a mother is told that your son is going to have has such a high status, any parent will be so happy we want our children to succeed. What a great honor Allah

00:16:23--> 00:17:02

is giving to the mother, a Mussolini some that your son is not going to just be an ordinary person. He's going to be one of My prophets. I have selected him and he's gonna be one of My prophets. Allah is not only giving her is but Allah subhanho wa Taala is promising her that he's he he didn't know what Allah will return Musala your son and lo and behold, not only the Mussolini son was returned to the mother, but now she was being paid. She was given a stipend to take care of musalla yourself Which mother is given a stipend, which mother is given a salary to take care of her child, Allah subhanho wa Taala returned Musala you some ALLAH SubhanA took care of her financial concerns. Allah

00:17:02--> 00:17:40

Subhana Allah took care of her future concern what's gonna happen to my child, if he's a prophet, he's under the protection of Allah subhanho wa Taala This is the reward of putting your trust in Allah subhanho wa Taala This is what happens. But it takes a lot of courage, no doubt it takes courage. But when you put your trust in Allah, this is what happens. Just like that we find in the story of Musa Islam, that he's being chased by fit own with him is bunny Islam. He's taking money inside with him. And you have to understand that the people of Bonita started they're being convinced by Mussolini, Mussolini, someone's telling them that oh my nation, old people, but you saw

00:17:40--> 00:18:21

you come with me, I will save you I will take care of you. Allah is with you. And now the time comes that they come to the sea, and right before them is water, there's nowhere to go. And when they turn around, who do they find they find fit out in their entire army fit on is coming with his entire army, his entire arsenal and so forth. And think about at that time, the emaan of any person who does not have their true trust in Allah subhanho wa Taala will be shaken at his core. But Musala your son was a person that he said they if Allah told me to do this, I put my trust in Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah is telling Musala you some to do something that does not make logical sense

00:18:21--> 00:18:59

to anyone probably. And he's telling Musala you Salam Idlib, Yasaka, Baja taker stick, take her stuff and hit it on the ground, hit it on the water, and the person that would say that time will say how will this make a difference? Even more Sally Sankara say Allah how will that make a difference? Imagine right now going to the sea right now and taking a stick and hitting on the water. People will call you nuts. But that time Mussolini Assam he's taking that stick he's hitting you on the on the water. He doesn't understand logic. He understands that Allah told him to do something, he put his trust in Allah subhanho wa taala. And lo and behold, something magical

00:18:59--> 00:19:35

happened, something amazing happened. And that is the sea parted something that you will never ever see. But this happened in the time of Musa alayhis salam and Musa alayhis salam and his entire group of people are crossing by this happens when you put your trust in Allah subhanho wa Taala so when we have fears, whether it's something that is weird current currently going through right now, something about the future and so forth. Learn how to put your trust in Allah subhanho wa Taala that doesn't mean that you don't do your part. No, you do your part. And you also put your trust in Allah subhanho wa Taala but we have to also make sure that we learn how to put our trust in Allah subhana

00:19:35--> 00:19:59

wa Tala The next thing that we have to do when it comes to Overcoming our fears is that you will have to face your fears at times, but inshallah know that if you have put your trust in Allah, and you're doing what Allah has told us to do, and you're doing exactly by the sila, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam, and the teachings of our prophets that Allahu alayhi wa sallam, then in

00:20:00--> 00:20:40

Allah Allah will protect you on the back end. Allah has your back when ALLAH SubhanA wa told Musa alayhis salam Musa, now you have to take care of your job, what's your job, you are a prophet. Now you have to go to fit on you have to go back to Egypt and you have to invite Phil on and so forth. Now you got to understand Mussolini was a human being just like us. Allah understands that he's a human being just like us. Allah will not share stories with us from the Quran about people who are not human. The reason why Allah gave us Rasulullah Salem is because he's a human, we're human, we can relate the fact that Musala Islam has fears just like any other human being would have fears.

00:20:41--> 00:21:20

Why do you think that's why history is mentioned in the Quran? Allah subhanho wa Taala is telling him yeah Musa until OMA volume in Musa go back to Egypt on my own. And just because it Musa alayhis salam did not get the clear picture home if and only you have to go back to fit on. And then Allah subhanho wa Taala says that what it means Allah you saw me he said yeah Robbie in a half one you cut the bone. He says Ya Allah they're gonna deny me there's no way and did you forget the fact well at home I am going for a half a Yahoo loan that there was you know, I have like a rap sheet there. You know, there was a there was an offense that I committed and there's still there's a warrant of

00:21:20--> 00:21:39

arrest out there for me. You want me to go back there into the into the lion's den. So Allah subhanaw taala knows where he's putting Musala yourself Moo Saudis I'm also knows where he's going. And then he says Bala Kola first hubba Musa Allah someone's telling him that oh, that's not an excuse. You have to go you have to go in

00:21:40--> 00:22:24

your own. So then he says to fit own fat to fit on that go both of you go to Musa go to fit our own and invite him to Allah subhanahu wa Tada and what Allah subhanho wa Taala told him he says an onsen mana bunny inside tell them to somebody inside with you and so forth. And not only that, but Allah subhanho wa Taala is telling you in my own wisdom, your own we are with you. Don't worry we are with you. So sometimes you have to face your fears in order to overcome your fears. But you ask Allah for help you make dua to Allah subhanho wa Taala and you put trust in Allah subhana wa to Allah and Allah will have your back. This is something that we tonight today we do not have, we do not have

00:22:24--> 00:23:01

our trust in Allah. We do not actually feel that Allah has my back, Allah will take care of me. Allah will protect me, we look towards the MaHA look, we look towards the mosque, look for that support. Where as the source of that support comes from the harlot and Rabbul aalameen. So brothers and sisters, so the very first thing is we got to put our trust in Allah subhanho wa taala. Number two is we put our trust in Allah we face our fears make dua to Allah subhanho wa taala, which is also the third thing which is making dua to Allah subhanho wa taala. And we ask Allah for his support, and when Allah tells us to do something that remember that Allah subhanho wa Taala will

00:23:01--> 00:23:38

also protect you. When mousseline Sam is being told by Allah subhanho wa Taala Musa, you have to go, there's no way out, I'm not going to send Okay, you want the support, you're looking for some aid, I'll send how to win with you, but you have to go to fit on. And that is why we find also in the Quran that you don't want to someone that is threatened. The first thing they will do is they will remind you of their favors. When someone psychologically they want to gain dominance over another person. They will remind them of the favors. I did so many favors for you, because that shows that I have done things for you. You were in a weaker position. I was in a more powerful position. I did

00:23:38--> 00:24:14

favors for you. Now you're trying to tell me this. Not only that Phil always said the same thing to Musa alayhis salam also he says alumna Rebecca fina, what either after budgeter, you're a kid, man. You're going to come and tell me now what to do. You know how many times adults they say that you're a kid. You're like my son's age. You can't tell me what to do. Okay, even if they're wrong. Likewise, what happens is fit. I want to say alumna Rebecca Fida, when either will abyss the Phenom and Oh, Monica seen you stayed here for so many years you grew up in our palace. And not only that, but when you try to gain dominance someone and you know their dirty little secret, and you don't

00:24:14--> 00:24:27

want to share it, and you tell them you know, I remember what you did. I know that day that time you did something you are with this person, that person you want me to spill the beans? Well, if I fall into quality for

00:24:28--> 00:24:59

caffeine, for only just filled with sarcasm, do you remember what you did when you did what you did? Like he just he's just doing all this sarcasm, trying to intimidate Musa alayhis salam and any person that time will probably lose their footing. But at that time Musa Elisa remembers that this he was sent by Allah subhanho wa Taala with a mission and he stuck to his mission and Allah subhanho wa Taala had the backing and the support of Musa alayhis salam. So this is why brothers and sisters we are going to go through different challenges in life.

00:25:00--> 00:25:41

But number one is put your trust in Allah subhanho wa Taala number two is the face your fear and Allah subhanho wa Taala will inshallah have your back and number three is always make dua to Allah subhanho wa Taala never lose sight of dua Never underestimate the power of dua, mousseline, someone's about to be sent into the lion's den he understands because he even said why a beautiful Saturday while our young people is sunny, yeah, Allah when I go, my chest is tightened. I cannot speak. When I go I lose my words he had a speech impediment as it is, but not but in many cases also, when you feel there's a lot of anxiety when a person is filled with a lot of rage. A lot of

00:25:41--> 00:26:17

times the words don't come out a person is filled with rage. They want to spill out so many things, but they're they're their tongues are not just giving out the words he Mussolini, someone saying we are dealing with somebody whether you're intellectually Sunni, I cannot even speak but even in that kind of situation. What did he do? He asked Allah subhanho wa Taala rubbish rally you saw that he was silly, Emery was terminally Sani of a pony. So never ever lose sight of the power of dua, you find you find yourself in a difficult position. Ask Allah subhanho wa taala. Make dua to Allah subhanho wa Taala pleased to Allah subhanho wa Taala and Allah subhanho wa Taala will be there to

00:26:17--> 00:26:36

help us in all of our affairs. I asked Allah subhanho wa Taala to give us Sophie to learn from the stories of the Quran. May Allah Subhana Allah help us to apply these stories in the Quran of the Quran in our life and Middleboro Allah mean Baraka Hola Hola, Anna, welcome all the way to find out what you can do with the Hakeem stuff Lola Holly welcome well inside Muslim festival fellow in the whole of Rahim.
