Omar Suleiman – The Beginning and the End – EP 68 Overcoming your Sins

			My name is Salaam and Hauer and Eve were then sent to the earth. Now here's the thing. When we look
at the story of Adam and Eve Salaam, it's different from all of us Why? Because the story of Adam
starts in gender and then it goes to Earth. Whereas for the rest of the rest of us it starts here
and then it ends in gender but in the later Allah we asked the last panel that that's the case so
it's it's a very different situation, a very different scenario altogether. And it's a very
interesting question. You know, we know that there is no punishment after repentance that Allah
subhanho Tiana for gave the money some a lot tells us that once the money is sought forgiveness that
		

			he forgave him. So when he lost son Tim to the earth was he sent to Earth as a punishment, or was he
sent to Earth because that was his decree anyway? Now, Alice Pattaya tells us in the Quran that when
he created the mighty his Salaam, that he told the angels in the jar you don't fill out all the
Khalifa that I am placing upon the earth, this halifa this caretaker. So there was this concept
already made known to the angels and to everyone that Adam and Eve is Salam was destined for the
earth. And that's why I'm in court to be Rahim, Allah to Allah and some other scholars, they said
that Adams coming to earth was not a punishment, because there is no punishment after repentance,
		

			but rather, it's not a loss of hundreds and had already created him for the earth. And this was the
thing that spurred it, this was the decree thing that spurred it, but he was eventually meant to
come here anyway. And there is no indication in the fact that Adam it is Salaam was sent to Earth
that Allah subhana wa tada was still punishing him. Now, we also take a very powerful lesson though,
that just because a loss of hundreds, Allah forgives you after your sin, doesn't mean that you're
not going to continue to reap the consequences. there will be consequences at times, even if Allah
subhanaw taala forgave you. So it might not be a punishment from Allah subhana wa Tada. Rather,
		

			that's the process of your cafardo. That's the process of your expiation of your atonement. Okay?
Because a lot of times, for example, you know, if I quit selling heroin, for example, if I quit
selling something that's impermissible. Do I expect that as a result of that, I'm not going to lose
some money, I'm not going to find some, you know, I'm not going to suffer a little bit and struggle
to get the * out. Now, for some people, a lost contact immediately will take them from that
hadham income. And as soon as they quit a lost parents, I will give them an amazing holiday income.
Those are the feel good stories that you hear in hotels and stuff like that. But sometimes that's
		

			not the case. If I quit this relationship that I'm not supposed to be in, should I expect that
immediately, I'm gonna feel amazing, and then I'm not going to have heartbreak and so on, so forth.
No, those consequences that I face, those circumstances, are a means of cafaro they're a means of
expiation, just like any test in life, just like anything else that gets in my way. So long as Allah
subhanho wa Taala has forgiven me, I don't need to view those things as a punishment. So this is a
means of atonement, it's a means of cafardo It's a means of expiation, it should not be looked at in
any other way. And this is a very different narrative from the concept of original sin. Okay, there,
		

			you know, this idea that we were created to bear the sin of Adam minding his salon, and that we
could not be forgiven except through, you know, the crucifixion of as it is set up. This is a very
different story, a very different narrative altogether. Because essentially, what we're being told
is we were always meant to come to the earth it was already made for us, Allah subhanaw taala had
already pleased had already decreed it to be that way and last panda is pleased with that decree. So
no, when we're born, we're not bearing the sin of Adam is not we're not bearing the consequences of
Adam it is salaams mistake because this is what had already been decreed for us. And even though Chi
		

			Rahim Allah to Allah He also throws in a very beautiful snippet for us. He says that you know, when
when Adam alayhis salam was expelled from Paradise, at least was pleased 30 hadleys cache pond got
expelled as well. Right? And losers always like to have company right so he thought to himself Hey,
Adam, it Sam got expelled as well, at least was pleased that Adam and his Salaam was expelled and at
least thought that he won. But even though Chi Rahim Allah said what he did not take into
consideration is that when the diver dives, and also how was when the diver dives to the bottom of
the ocean, yes matter, look, look, he gathers the pearls at the bottom of the ocean, way out. It's a
		

			fair model. It's an awful lot and then he rises up once again, and this time he has pearls in his
hands. And what that means is when a person commits a sin number one attack buena dombey commandment
number the prophets lie. Some said that the one who repents from the sin is like the one who never
sinned in the first place. Number two, if that sin and repentance of that process brought you closer
to a loss
		

			penalty, it's actually better for you. It's better that it happens. If it really brought you closer
to Allah, Allah forgave you for it. And that was the turning point in your life and in your
relationship for the loss of Hannah Montana, then you've gathered some pearls you don't have the
effect of the sin, but you do have the good deed of the default. The the seeking forgiveness and you
do have that newfound relationship with Allah. And just look at the way Allah describes it in the
Quran, where Allah Adam or a robber who favela admire Islam disobeyed Allah and so he went astray so
much to that who are Abu fatawa but then a lot chose him. And Allah subhanaw taala accepted his
		

			repentance Allah turn towards him and Allah guided him. So the situation of Adam, after his
repentance was greater than the situation of Adam is not before, despite the fact that now he's in
earth and not in gender, because now he's closer to Allah subhanaw taala he's been chosen as a
prophet of Allah. And now he has learned those lessons and gathered those pearls. And that's the
same thing that we need to make sure that we do when we commit those sins and we repent don't just
repent and say stuff that Allah learn the lessons and use that incident just like any crisis in any
relationship, use that crisis to propel you back towards the last panel agenda and to cause you to
		

			fleet towards a last minute out of the way that atomizer landed. A salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa
barakato. I hope you enjoyed and benefited from this video. If you did, then please do share it and
