Nouman Ali Khan – Amazed By The Quran – Allah Is Always Near

			Salam Alaikum everyone. Welcome to amused by the Koran, a series in which I love sharing with you
things I find amazing about to put on and today's really a small snippet from the story of one of my
favorite prophets of all time Musashi Salaam. And something that's really, really inspiring. I find
it incredibly inspiring. masala Salaam was traveling with his family, they got lost in the middle of
the desert, it was getting cold, so much so that they were starting to freeze and he needed to get a
fire going. And he sees a fire long in the distance up on top of a mountain that his family can't
even see. He says Indiana's de nada, I can sense there's a flame there. Right. And he so he tells
		

			his family to wait there and comes back. Hopefully I can get some guidance. They're landlocked or
stolen. So you can get warmth, right? So they are freezing. So it's a desperate situation. They're
lost in the middle of the desert. It's getting dark, there's nobody around. And now he's going to go
and seek, you know, this, this this fire. And of course, everybody knows that he met and he met in
conversation with Allah through the burning bush when he got up on the mountain. So one phrase in
there that says Ernesto Toka, when Allah spoke to him, he says there is I in fact that has chosen
you
		

			was chosen and it just took me for a spin.
		

			You know, when someone's chosen by a higher authority, like if somebody called in to meet with the
President or a king calls, or the principal of the school called you to give you an award or
something, you know, there's a ceremony. It's bright lights, its cameras, it's, you know, an
audience and there's a standing ovation, and then somebody is chosen, or inaugurated. You know, like
there's this. This is anticipation that you're about to be given a special honor. And one of the
most incredible honors ever given in human history is Allah speaking directly to a human being
telling him I in fact, I'm the one that's chosen you. And this is the this is the occasion, Jetta
		

			Allah, Katarina masa, you have come right on time for the ceremony. You've come right on time, you
know this exactly according to plan. In other words, this was the ceremony now. Look at the
background to the ceremony. There's no dressing up. There's no getting ready. There's no like
anticipation. There's no family standing there trying to celebrate your, your you know, this honor.
It's the situation is things are dark, desperate, you're lost in the middle of a desert, there's not
even a road, you may maybe find a fire, you're on the verge of death, not just you, your entire
family. And yet the greatest honor and the greatest blessing has been bestowed upon you. moments
		

			after one of the worst, most difficult moments and darkest moments in your life. That's what
happened with Masada is, what we're being taught is, Allah has his way of bestowing blessings. And
we may not see moments ago, like just moments ago, Musa alayhis, Salam could not have imagined that
this is the greatest day of his life. He couldn't imagine that he would be imagining this is one of
the worst days of my life. This is one of the most difficult things I've had to do. Because, you
know, being worried about yourself is hard enough, he's actually worried about his entire family
too. And it's in the middle of the dark that some of the worst animals come out in the desert. And
		

			he's left them behind, and it's getting colder and colder. And even if he's going up the mountain,
it's not like there's a fire down there. So he's got to come down and find his way back to find them
somehow, it's not like there's a road that he can take back, you can easily get lost, you know, and
it's not like there's a paved road going up the mountain. So he, you know, once you go up, then they
come back down this way or that way these thoughts are running through his mind. And yet in the
middle of all of that distress and all of that hopelessness. What he's given is the greatest words
of Hope I in fact, I'm the one that has chosen you and asked us to go faster mentally, when you
		

			listen to what's been revealed in it. There's an incredible inspiration for all believers, that
Allah is never far away. No matter how dark your situation gets, how desperate it gets, how
difficult it gets for you and your loved ones. Allah will in fact, so long as you have reliance in
him, Allah will in fact, bring you light from where nobody else could have seen it. And he'll turn
things around in just in a moment. And that's in the hands of Allah. All of that is in the hands of
Allah, you know, every every step, you're taking up that mountain, and every rock you're climbing,
and every time you're slipping it almost falling and getting desperate. Don't think that this is
		

			going to last. Allah will give relief whenever whenever and however you can. And it's not going to
come in the way that we anticipated milazzo Jamaica so people have hope and continue to draw
inspiration and amazement really from this incredible book. barakallahu li walakum wa salaamu
