			salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato. Welcome back to the faith revival. So this hadith comes
in the form of a father speaking to a son, which makes it very powerful. This is the famous
companion or about the techno sommets or the allow Thailand. Robot as he was passing away. He says
to his son, Yamuna Oh my dear son in Mecca, lanta de de Parma, happy Patel Eman, you will not taste
the reality of faith you will not be able to taste the reality of faith had tabula Anima or siberica
Lum yakko neoplatonic until you understand that that which has come to you was not meant to have
missed you. Well, Anima athoc Lamia Cornelius liebeck and that which missed you was not meant to
		
00:00:53 --> 00:01:40
			have come to you. And he says to him, yeah. boonie Oh, my dear son. I heard the Prophet sallallahu
wasallam say, In a word, Mr. Haleakala column, the first thing that Allah created was the pen for
call Allah who took took. So Allah said to the pen, right, Carla Robbie, one other aktobe and so the
pan said and oh my lord, and what should I write? So Allah subhanho wa Taala anisette octobe naka de
la Kula she had to Tacoma Sara writes the decree of everything until the date of judgment is
established. Yabu Nia in nice America Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he called, oh my son I
heard the Prophet sallallahu wasallam say minmatar and Aveda had Felisa mini whoever dies with an
		
00:01:40 --> 00:02:24
			understanding other than this understanding is not from me, meaning is not of my followers and not
of this religion. in the true sense. This Hadith is so profound, you will not taste the reality of
faith. What does that mean? It is so easy to talk about faith when you're not in hardship. It is so
easy to talk about what should work and what shouldn't work. But your faith is really put to the
test your eemaan really is put to the test when you get hit with something of Divine Decree that you
were not expecting something comes to you of Divine Decree that you were not expecting. And that's
where all of that building up of a man is supposed to hold and you know, take root when something
		
00:02:24 --> 00:03:01
			comes at you and respond to the test and respond to the trial. And an ambassador the allow tada and
who says, Whoever establishes their belief in Divine Decree has established their belief in Allah
subhana wa Tada. And whoever destroys it would destroy their belief in Allah Subhana, WA Tada, it
all goes back to that firm belief. Now notice here that Roboto the Allahu anhu is saying to his son,
it starts with knowledge. If you want the reality of faith, you have to at least have the
intellectual understanding, spiritually, you might, you might bend a little bit when something
happens and hopefully not break. You might have a hard time with some blood with patients when
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:43
			something comes to you, that would test your faith. But at least intellectually, first and foremost,
you you have the ability, you have the knowledge, that what has come to me was not meant to have
missed me. You know why? Because what what how do people end up letting shape on into their lives,
the Prophet slicin said, Never say the word low, if why, because he said that opens can be met low
tester however, shelter and if you say the word if it opens all of the doors of shavon shavon now
has so many entrances because the word if opens so many possibilities, if I would have done this, if
this would have happened, if such and such happen. If that happened, you're not going to have any
		
00:03:43 --> 00:04:19
			time to let your eemaan take root and Allah subhanaw taala. If you're constantly questioning Well,
if this happened, and that happened, the point is, are above the law and was saying to a son, come
back to the realization that if you did that, and if you did that, if you did that, this still would
have happened to you, you still would have been in the same situation and a loss of hometown and
never was what was never lost control of the situation. You're a man has to be able to take root in
that. And you have to find comfort in that understanding. And the robot does not saying you're going
to taste the sweetness of faith. He said you will not even begin to taste the reality of faith until
		
00:04:19 --> 00:05:00
			you come to that understanding. First you have to come to that understanding that the circumstances
are beyond my control, that Allah Subhana Hosanna has obligated me to do certain things. But
circumstances are beyond my control. If you have that understanding, then a man settles in the
heart. And imagine a lot you know, you're able to taste the sweetness of the fruits of that amount.
So long as you come to that understanding things happen. And this would not have missed me and this
would not have come to me. All of this is planned and all of this is in a low head muffled. All of
this has already been written by a loss of Hannah Montana. I'm comforted.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:18
			And knowing that I do not know what the next page contains, but that Allah subhanho wa Taala will
not allow me to escape from his knowledge or from his mercy subhanho into Adam Allah subhanaw taala.
Allow us to taste the reality of Eman, alumna. I mean, see you all next time inshallah. So I want to
talk to council
