Nouman Ali Khan – Why Aren’t You Grateful?

Nouman Ali Khan

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan delves on the need to fully comprehend the concept and benefits of being grateful to Allah at all times. He reflects upon Surah Al Ibrahim of the Noble Qur’an.

Allah has reminded us to be conscious of Allah at all times as the blessings of Allah can never be fully enumerated. One of the purposes of our existence is the purpose of being forever grateful to Allah SWT.

This is a lesson Allah gives us in the Surah. Musa AS was taught to give [this lesson] to his people so they could come out of darkness to light. And then this message is so important that Allah put it as a teaching for the Messenger himself. Hence, it is paramount that we become truly, sincerely grateful to Allah SWT. And as a result of our gratitude, Allah will increase us in the good things and in the guidance and in the blessings that we enjoy in this world. 

Rewards:

  • The Pleasure of Allah will be upon us.
  • Allah will lift the punishment from us.
  • Allah gives you more if you are thankful to Allah.

00:02:14 --> 00:02:55
			inshallah, in today's brief clip, I'd like to share with you a few reflections from the 14th surah
of the Quran. This is salt Ibrahim, and in this surah among many other suitors of the Quran, we
learned something very interesting. The nation that offers the most by way of examples for Muslim to
learn lessons from is the nation of Musa alayhis salaam 70 plus times passages are dedicated to Musa
alayhis salaam and the legacy of his people. And this is not just a case of when the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam moved migrated to the city of Medina and had interaction with the Jewish
community This is a Mexican surah. So even earlier on he was being served as an example for the
		
00:02:55 --> 00:03:07
			Muslims and his interactions with his people were being served as an example for the Muslims and
even for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. This surah begins Kitab on ans Allahu la Caleta
Phrygian as we know
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:45
			it this is a remarkable book. It's a remarkable book that we have sent down to you so you meaning
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam can bring people out of the darkness into light. They're in
they're stuck in many different shades of darkness Your job is to bring them out of light by means
of this book. That's what your job is. A few hours later what I recited to you the listen to this
carefully, Allah azza wa jal says, well look at the Uppsala Mousavi. Ayah Tina, we said Musa with
our miraculous signs an average America manabu Mattila know that you should bring your nation out of
the shades of darkness into light. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was told this in the
		
00:03:45 --> 00:04:21
			beginning of this surah and now as a case study, he's being told you're not the first one I gave
these same instructions to moose on Instagram. So why don't you listen to what he had to say to his
people? Why don't you pay attention to that and it will teach you something for your own people.
This is a how large of a joke teaches us and even teaches his messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
So now of the things because you know the story the history of the Israelites in the Quran is very
diverse. We learned so many things about the conversations between Musa alayhis, salaam Moses and
the pharaoh Pharaoh and his people before they escaped his people after the escape when they were
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:57
			wandering in the desert. There are so many epic tales, epic adventures, historical accounts that are
all over the Quran. So which one is going to highlight when he talks about bringing them out of
darkness into light? what particular focus does he have now? And what why I highlight that for
ourselves is because I feel like all Muslims should constantly be worried in terms of coming out of
darkness themselves into light. Allah didn't just call it one darkness he called it shades of
darkness. Just like a shade a shadow can be very dark and it can be light, right? So Muslims aren't
self righteous. We don't think that we're guided we're in the light. We may have some shades of
		
00:04:57 --> 00:05:00
			darkness we have a problem with and we need to create
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:12
			Constantly pull ourselves out. And one of the most common and dangerous forms of that darkness is
going to be highlighted in this passage. So let's see what masayoshi son has to say to his people
with color, Mousavi comi here.
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:51
			As I translate this for you, you and I should be thinking, each of these things that Musa is
offering alayhis salam is his way of getting his people from darkness into light. First thing he
says make mention of the gifts Allah has given to you the favors of Allah upon you make mention of
Allah as favors upon you. And you know, at the time that these words are given, I'll talk to you
about the historical context in a little bit. But the Israelites weren't exactly the people that
were having a good time. They weren't exactly the people that enjoyed a lot of success, especially
not during the career of musasa. Either they're stuck in a situation where a tyrant ruler is about
		
00:05:51 --> 00:06:33
			to annihilate them, and slaughtering babies, not one, but by the 1000s. Or they're in the desert
about to dehydrate and die. So they're not exactly in a luxurious situation. And yet the first thing
that's told to them isn't the patient. The first thing told to them is make mention of a loss favors
on you, instead of focusing all your energies on what is going wrong. Why don't you think about what
is going right? What is what is it that you do enjoy it along these lines I want to share with you
when the when they crossed the water when Allah rescued them from Finland and they crossed the water
and Allah basically provided for them in a situation which otherwise they only deserve death and
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:55
			nobody can survive in the desert with that huge population. Many women children, there is no
shelter, nothing. So Allah provides shelter by means of clouds and provides rain. He provides my
nine so as you learned in Sunday school, many of you huh, he provides 197 he provides their food, he
provides drink by means of 12 Springs fanfight your admin who's Natasha tarina
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:33
			12 springs are coming out. So their food, their water, their shelter in an impossible situation has
been taken care of. But something very interesting is quoted in the Quran elsewhere. And I want to
highlight that and come back to this. After a while they started getting tired of that food. So they
asked me they you know, they're sitting around what's what's for lunch? manansala? What's for
dinner? Also wineland? Nah, I don't know. There's not not a lot of variety in the food. So you can
imagine a couple of the guys sitting around saying, Man, Don't you miss that restaurant back in the
day? That Egyptian places pretty good. So they're sitting around and they're making mention of some
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:40
			vegetables. Right? And they obviously the Quran mentions when they when they went up to Busan, Islam
and said, back up
		
00:07:43 --> 00:08:19
			for me, haha, well Gazzaniga, they went to Moses, they went to massage them. And they said some of
them said, Why don't you make a prayer to your God to your master? So you can bring out some lentils
and garlic and onions? And can we have some fries with that? And you know, it's like a whole menu.
That's a whole menu. Then another question arises, when did they learn the name of these items? It's
not like they learned the names of those vegetables when they were in the desert. They learned those
back in Egypt when they were still under the clutches of garland. So ask yourself this question.
When somebody comes out of prison and says, Man, I miss the food I used to get served. And you know,
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:39
			when I was doing time, when you miss the food from prison, what does that mean? It's like you miss
prison itself. You're not appreciating the taste of freedom, you understand? So you can focus on
what food we don't have, or you can focus on what we do have now we have the taste of freedom. So
Musa alayhis salam is deeply upset and he says to them at this time the new the lady who
		
00:08:41 --> 00:09:20
			you seek to replace the inferior with what would what is with with that, which is better, and he's
not talking about food, or not just about food, he's talking about freedom. So you have to focus on
the blessings you enjoy in the midst of all of your troubles. What is the easiest most common
conversation Muslims find themselves in today among each other? What are our problems man the youth
got problems, man politics man, Syria, Philistine Kashmir, man, we got problems at the mustard. Man,
this guy's got a problem that board that committee has a problem. This organization has a problem,
man, our MSA is just full of problems. All we talk about our problems.
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:53
			That's all we do. It's entertaining. Some of you have been raised in households where your dad would
have his friends come over over Chai or baklava you would discuss the world's problems. That's all
you would do. That was your that's your culture you just discussed this is wrong with that one
that's wrong with this one this wrong with that one. This one's corrupt. That one's corrupted.
That's it. See you next week we'll discuss the same problems again. Right? Allah azza wa jal tells
the Israel like the first thing you need to focus on is the fever of Allah with guru near Matala.
Here they come. And then he goes further. And he says if you can't think of any Let me remind you
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:59
			when he rescued you once and for all from the clutches of the feral, you're so moved on.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:16
			Sue, and I thought he was humiliating you with the worst form of punishment. You that the owner of
NACA, he was slaughtering your children, your sons? Well, yes, that union is our home. And he was
allowing your women to live for the purpose of further degradation and humiliation. Well, he ran a
company.
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:51
			And then all of that that was a huge trial for you. You were in great difficulty as a result. Now
this conversation is happening when they've already been freed from all of this. And now they're in
another difficult life. But allies allies messenger is telling them your first darkness is that
you're not grateful enough. That's your first real problem. You always think about your problems you
don't think about what's what's good, what's going on good in your life. What are the good things in
your life? And I want to before I go on, pay my turn some attention to the family situation in the
Muslim households, how many mother in law's are always complaining? How many wives are always
		
00:10:51 --> 00:11:20
			complaining? How many husbands are almost complaining, always complaining? How many daughters and
sons are always coming? You don't get me this? You don't get me that? I never get to do this. I
never get to do that. Why couldn't you move here? Why did you move there? Why did you take that job?
Why did you move out there? Why did you the constant complaints about each other, that's our life
that's become our life. People go home and the husband complaints against the wife and wife
complaints against the husband, the in laws complaint against each other. That's all it is. That's
all your life is turned into at home. That's why you spend more time at the masjid some of you, you
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:57
			can't deal with the home situation. This lesson is not just for us in a religious setting, we have
to learn to focus on positive things. And when you don't you know what happens. And this is not just
even religious advice. When you focus on things that are going on in your life, you lead a miserable
life, you lead a depressed life. You nothing makes you happy because you're too overwhelmed by
things that have already occurred. That you know, and by the way, when you look back, just a
remarkable thing to think about what the Israelites have gone through is nothing easy. I mean, when
you hear news of a child being killed, even by mistake in a car accident, it's disturbing. This man
		
00:11:57 --> 00:12:30
			is killing children by the 1000s on purpose, that is a trauma for a nation not to easily overcome.
So even if they will escape that trauma shouldn't just go away. But Allah says even then focus on
the favor of Allah on you focus on the fact that that's been done with it's over. And now you've
been rescued from that, you know, he changes their mindset. They're not a people, they're not
supposed to be a people of complaint anymore. And he goes on and this is the amazing thing. Where if
Rob buco very famous I often it's quoted without the context, what is
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:52
			roughly translated for you first, when your master your Lord declared that in Shackleton as he the
knuckle, if you're just grateful, I will increase you multiple fold. I'm doing a very casual
transition so far. Your master declared if you are grateful, I will increase for you multiple folds,
whether Inca forthcoming,
		
00:12:55 --> 00:13:00
			then if and if you're ungrateful. If you deny, then my punishment is intense.
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:41
			But let's go back a second. This is the advantage of bukem. Many of our scholars seem to feel that
this declaration is what Guru is venerable can remind yourselves of Israelites, followers of Moses,
followers of the Saudis from when Allah addressed you directly. You know, there's an occasion in the
history of the sons of Islam in when Mousavi Salaam took them took the leaders of Venezuela into go
make Toba to repent to Allah. And he took them and Allah addressed all of them directly. And when he
addressed all of them directly, he said many things to them otherwise in for and we read Hulu
Latina, can we hold on to what we've given you with all of your might, they were given very stern
		
00:13:41 --> 00:14:19
			advice, hold on to the book, in this passage a lot highlights something else they were told
something else they were told and all of it has to do with just being grateful. The Israelites are
now being called and the only thing Allah wants them to focus on is be grateful. And But before
that, even the word uses is the Adana. You know, in the Arabic language. There are lots of words for
declaring something proclaiming something that can be used, you know, what I couldn't be because so
many words can be used when it comes from the word open, which means here, and it's the kind of
announcement made that rings in your ears, it doesn't let go. Like you think about it all the time.
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:58
			The strong announcement, you know, you know how sometimes your parents yell at you all the time, but
there's one time they yell at you and it rings your head. And you're sitting there quietly, close
your eyes and it comes back a flashback from dolphin time. That's the other one. It doesn't let you
go. Allah says he basically he's saying to the language, he said in the small stern possible words.
He said in the most penetrating forum to you these words, that in Shackleton, if you were just
ungrateful, a little bit, Chicago is in the past tense in the Arabic language. And that suggests
something rhetorical. I'll put it in simple words for you if you weren't even even grateful. One
		
00:14:58 --> 00:14:59
			time.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:18
			If you're just grateful, even once, if you could, for once, show gratitude, if you could do that,
for that one act of gratitude, as even nachum, I swear to it, I will increase and increase and
increase and increase for you, Allah swears to it three times over in the aisle, linguistically
speaking,
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:47
			he swears that he will increase for you, if you just show gratitude, you just have to be grateful.
That's it. That's all I asked for you. I'm not asking for you to be grateful all the time. That's
what I will do. If you show gratitude, once you show gratitude once and there's a switch that
happens to the present tense, immediately, I will, I am and I will continue to increase you, which
implies it's going to happen continuously. The other thing that's really interesting here is that
the I began in the third person is
		
00:15:48 --> 00:16:16
			not going to lie didn't say when I decide when I declare to you, when I proclaim to you, he said
when your master proclaimed, that's the third person, but immediately he comes close to you. And he
says, if you are grateful, I will increase. He doesn't say he will increase the rest of the I should
remain he but he says if you are grateful, I will come close to you. You will earn my closeness,
just by being great is the greatness of the ayah. So
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:25
			in the eye itself, a law offers you and me that he will be close to us. All he wants from us is for
us to learn to be grateful in Chicago.
		
00:16:27 --> 00:17:07
			And what's more, even more interesting in this ayah from a rhetorical point of view, is when you say
Shankara you are always at what are you thankful to? If I say I think you commonly when we talk to
each other, we say thank you, we add that you, we thank Allah, He doesn't even say what let him
Shackleton Lee, if you are grateful to me, I'll increase you. He said just have the attitude of
being grateful. It's not even limited to a large religion, because the Prophet teaches us a lot
more. The Quran edition teaches us we're not just supposed to be grateful to Allah, we're supposed
to be grateful to our teachers, to our parents, to whoever does any good to us. Because being
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:45
			grateful when you recognize a favor being done to you, it is an extension of what Allah has given to
you. It's a part of your risk. So if you fail to be grateful to your husband, you fail to be
grateful to your wife, you fail to be grateful for the blessing of your children. You fail to be
grateful for the job you do have as opposed to the job you want. You fail to be grateful for the car
you do have as opposed to the car you want. When you fail to be grateful for those things. It's an
extension of not being grateful to Allah, then shocker to me in all of its forms. If you are
grateful all around to anybody. It's not limited to one thing and if you can learn to do that Allah
		
00:17:45 --> 00:18:12
			will give you and give you and give you and when he swears by it, who can compare? When he's when he
gives that guarantee that as he then knuckle? This is the word of Allah azza wa jal, Allah doesn't
need to swear for anything. You know, in normal language when a person swears, I swear I didn't do
this, I swear I'm going to do this for you. You know when that's done, when somebody doesn't believe
you, when you come late to work, you tell your boss, I swear it was a lot of traffic. Because you're
afraid he's not going to believe what you're saying. So you're ready to testify and go to court for
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:41
			swearing is done when the person you're talking to is skeptical. A lot as I was talking to a
believing community, he's talking to the Israelites directly. There's no doubt here. But he's still
instills in them as though there might be what was that from shikon whispers of the devil later on
that you'll forget to be grateful. So I'm reminding you in the strongest possible words, I will give
you more. I will take care of you. I will hook you up. Just trust me Be grateful. I'll take care of
you.
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:51
			Now the last thing something I skipped before I move forward. I want to go backwards a little bit
again, Alonzo just said or Busan he said I'm said to them.
		
00:18:52 --> 00:19:04
			Right right before this, in that he that he got musasa was given instructions. This is how you bring
your people out of darkness into light. Allah said to them with a cute home be a yarmulke remind
them of all those days.
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:45
			One of the instructions given to Moosa This is how you make your people grateful. Remind them of
Allah Zidane now what in the world is that? alleged days. There's a pseudo dedicated in the Quran,
just alleged days and that sort of era, Salafi found lots of alleged is the deal what created us the
day we were brought to this earth. The day the deal took an oath from us that they were going to go
back to the day on which he warned nations de Leon which he destroyed nations, but each one of us
also has a lot of days. specific days you can recall where Allah did a favor to you that you could
not have expected from anywhere else, and he did it for you. And that nation, particularly their day
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:59
			of Allah was when the Lord rescued them from federal. So let's hold them in the previous told musar.
They said in the previous I'll remind them by using the last days and in the next musasa applies the
ion says remember the day he saved you from tomorrow. Remember that day
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:38
			He applies for the lottery. What are we learning we should apply with a lotta remember the day you
came out of the hospital. Remember the day the baby came out and everything was normal. Remember
that day, those are the days of the law. Nobody gets credit for those days except allows, you know,
we have to mark those milestone days in our life that people celebrate, they should be celebrated
with gratitude. There's supposed to be opportunities for us to become more and more grateful. You
know, how many friends I have there, you know, they had their first child after a lot of attempts
and when they had a child born three months premature, and the child's in the ICU for three, four
		
00:20:38 --> 00:21:03
			months, and this is maybe 10 years ago. Now the child is living a normal healthy life. But every
year they look at this child grow and the increase in gratitude because it looked impossible.
Doctors were shaking their head that no you should just get mentally prepare yourself. We have this
counselor on staff ready Do you know console you for the loss of your child everything was ready and
said except Allah decided no, this child will live and it will be a source of happiness for his
children.
		
00:21:04 --> 00:21:45
			We have to learn to become a grateful people, if he is not even in the midst of all of their
complaints are taught this we are no one to complain. And the first teaching is that to Masonic
Islam and that's another important lesson. If there is one messenger before so the loss of a
longtime who has a right to complain. He's got a right to complain. Not just because he gets hate
from the enemy from the disbeliever he gets trouble from his followers. So much so that the words
that come out of his mouth, Nima, tofu and honey Why do you continually cause me pain? you believe
me? Baka una me Rasulullah hillicon you already know I'm God's Messenger Do you? Why do you cause me
		
00:21:45 --> 00:22:23
			pain? If there's one messenger that has a right to compete complainants, bizarrely Sara, what does
the law say at the end of this ayah when he gave his this messenger instructions to pull these
people out of darkness into light. He says in Nevada I think liquidly SOP Da Vinci Code, two
attributes. He said these, this reminder is going to be good for anybody, any person who can have
two qualities. The two the people that will benefit from this the most these kinds of reminder the
most other people have two things in them. They are subpar. And they are shackled. Now let me
translate those two for you. One is extremely patient continually patient over and over again
		
00:22:23 --> 00:22:55
			exercising their patience. And the second is extremely grateful. These are both hyperbolized nouns.
extremely patient, extremely grateful. If you can do those two things, you will benefit from
guidance like nobody else. But why these two things together. I'll give you a simple example. I've
given this many times before but shamelessly I don't care. You open up the fridge. You see four or
five different kinds of drinks. But you see the one drink you don't you wanted it you wanted orange
juice you see grape juice you see you know orange mango you see soda, you see water, you see
everything you just don't see your oranges.
		
00:22:57 --> 00:22:59
			Where's the orange juice God every time
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:03
			instead of being patient,
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:09
			patient and before even patient your patience is tested because you fail to be grateful for
everything you do. And
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:12
			so you lose your patience when you don't have gratitude.
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:32
			The first thing a lot of calls for here is suffer because they were in a difficult situation. But
what will make your patience easy. Some people ask sometimes How do I become patient brother, I have
a temper problem. I get very angry. I get very impatient. You know, what should I do? I have a real
but I can't help myself. Yes, you can. Why don't you learn to be grateful.
		
00:23:33 --> 00:24:06
			That's the teaching of the Quran. If you want to fight your impatience, learn to become grateful.
Because when you focus on the gifts Allah has given you, your mind will not have the energy left to
focus on the things you don't get your way. What you want is your desire, what you have is what
Allah wants for you compare the two thing. I'll say that again, what you want is from your heart, I
want that car, I want that house, I want my son to do this, I want my daughter to do that. I want
you to do this. I want him to do that. But what you do have right now is all because I live inside
of it.
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:33
			So you're comparing what you want with other lives already given. We have to learn to be grateful
for what we have. I'm not saying we strive for we don't strive for better and better. We absolutely
do. But we do that with patience and with gratitude. And if you do want things to improve the ayah
has the solution. Brother, I don't see my family situation improving. I don't see my salary
increasing. I don't see my debt going away. I don't see my problem disappearing. Allah has the
formula here.
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:55
			If you're just grateful, I will increase you. I'll give it to you. Where do you think the money
comes from? Where do you think the solution to your problem comes from? It comes from Allah
azzawajal and he says I've kept it locked until you show some gratitude. You showed it to unlock it
for you. What are you waiting for it, learn to be grateful. And then he adds one more thing and I'll
end with that when I
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:58
			can if you choose not to be grateful.
		
00:24:59 --> 00:25:00
			If you want
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:11
			to just be in denial that these are gifts from a lot to you, you want to focus your life on all your
problems and complain all the time to yourself and others. If that's the life you want to live in
Nabila needs my punishment is really intense.
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:47
			What's remarkable about this is, he doesn't even say if, if you are ungrateful, I will punish you.
He doesn't say that. He doesn't even mention you. He just says my punishment is intense. Remember
when someone shows gratitude you mentioned them not as he then not comb, I will increase you he
honored you and me by mentioning us, but the one who is ungrateful doesn't even get deserved to get
mentioned by allowance it was enough to after that point, he just says my punishment is intense. You
don't even worry, you're not even worthy of mentioned at that point. You don't mention me Why should
I mention you? That's what it is.
		
00:25:50 --> 00:25:58
			And you know, the Israelites, specifically the Israelites, they carried an attitude that we today
see Muslim sometimes Allah wouldn't do that to us.
		
00:25:59 --> 00:26:03
			We're special. He brought us all the way out of the water now he's gonna punish this Come on.
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:12
			After all, he brought us all the way this way. And he saved us because we're special. He's not gonna
punish us for the Buddha.
		
00:26:14 --> 00:26:26
			With a special man, he wouldn't do that to us. What is the next is a and I'll conclude with it just
so we have a reality check. Alonzo just says, what color Moosa moosari sunset station in Turku, Anto
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:43
			Zhonya if you all become ungrateful, and everyone on the earth for that matter becomes ungrateful
for in the law, honey Yun Hamid tantalise, completely free of need, he doesn't need you. Don't you
for a second think you're special.
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:52
			You're not special allies of any. He doesn't need you to praise him. He's already self praise Hamid,
he doesn't even say machmood
		
00:26:53 --> 00:27:15
			mean and Kalamata even foreigners in Arabic principle. machmood means someone who is praised, which
suggests somebody praising but they're not been mentioned him. He doesn't even allude to somebody
else. He's praised in and of himself. Even if nobody else is around, you think he needs you to pray
to him? He doesn't. That's only for your benefit, so you can increase for yourselves. This is the
lesson Eliza was
		
00:27:16 --> 00:27:28
			taught to give his people so they can come out of darkness to light. And then this message is
important enough that a lot put it as a teaching for the messenger himself. This is teaching
methodology for civil law from the law.
		
00:27:29 --> 00:28:00
			He was first told you bring your people out of darkness into light. Then he was told here's how
Moosa did it. Musa reminded his nation this way. So you remind your nation this way? May Allah azza
wa jal bring this out of the very shades of darkness that we have into light. May Allah make us a
grateful people. Male lawmakers focus on the good things we enjoy in this life and truly, sincerely
become grateful to him. And as a result of our gratitude mail large increases in the good things and
in the guidance and the blessings that we enjoy in this world. barakallahu li walakum Hakeem when I
