			work for London Oba calm. Welcome. One Realtor in la hora Sula, who forgot the 1000 1000 Alima. From
a beret. We praise Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, we were witnessed that none has the right to be
worshipped or unconditionally obeyed, except for him. We bear witness that Muhammad sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam is his final messenger, we ask Allah to send his peace and blessings upon him, his
family, his companions, and those that follow until the day of judgment. And we ask Allah to make us
amongst them Allah. I mean, the brothers and sisters, obviously, it's a snow day, but Hamdulillah I
mean, you still made it to Juma and I know for some of you it might have been painful. And I know
		
00:04:33 --> 00:05:00
			for some of you you probably had second thoughts and you you went on Facebook or Twitter or Google
to get a fatwa so that you could stay home today. But you made it and hamdulillah and though the
masjid is obviously not as full as it would usually be, we're here and we're here to worship Allah
Subhana Allah to Allah and for some people that had the legitimate excuse not to be here and
obviously there's a danger to some some of them are saying and hamdulillah
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:22
			We don't have to listen to a heartbeat this week and we can take a break and some people are truly
in pain, missing the feeling of Juma and missing out on the ability to be here. And Allah subhanho
To Allah knows the hearts and Allah knows what we conceal. And Allah knows how we feel. And
subhanAllah as I was gathering my thoughts to think about what to talk about in today's call,
		
00:05:24 --> 00:06:06
			and trying to think of the appropriate topic for this week, obviously, with so many current events
going on, and how do we relate it to snow into the conditions and things of that sort as well. The
one thing that came to my mind is that Alhamdulillah we're Muslims Alhamdulillah we have more to
think about today on the day of Juma than just sitting in front of a fireplace and just you know,
cooking and heating ourselves up and making sure that we stay warm Alhamdulillah Allah subhanaw
taala gave us a purpose. Allah gave us something to desire and to long for on a day like this. And
truly when we look at our circumstances today, and you know, I've I've been in Malaysia and
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:47
			obviously a lot has happened over the last few weeks with with the, you know, murders and in Chapel
Hill and Pamela wood continues to happen around the world around the Muslim world and things of that
sort and hate crimes and all of that. It could be easy for us to sometimes wish we weren't Muslim,
right? Even if we don't see it, or if we don't say it rather, it could be easy at times to say I
wish I didn't have to go out there and face that ridicule. I wish I didn't have to be in these
circumstances. I wish that I could be like everyone else. I wish I didn't stand out because of my
hijab. I wish that I didn't have to pray on time. I wish that I didn't have to worry about this
		
00:06:47 --> 00:07:29
			obligation and that obligation. I wish that I could do this or I wish that I could do that. I wish
that that wasn't haram for me that wasn't forbidden. I wish I could party just like everyone else. I
wish that I could drink alcohol like the other workers like like my co workers are. I wish that I
could do this. I wish that I could do that. And subhanAllah the the one area that consistently comes
to my mind is a lovely to is where Allah subhanaw taala says Radi Allahu Anhu one of the one Allah
describes the believers as being pleased with Allah subhanaw taala they are pleased with Allah, and
Allah is pleased with them. And this is a testimony that we make every single day Every single
		
00:07:29 --> 00:08:11
			morning and every single evening, and I'll lead to biller here of the bobbin Islami Deena will be
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and Amina Rasool that I'm pleased with Allah as my Lord, I
wouldn't want anyone else to be in charge of me I wouldn't want anyone else to be my Sustainer if
you know I wouldn't want to create a god I would not want to craft a lord other than Allah Subhana
Allah to Allah, not physically nor nor mentally. I mean Allah subhanho wa Taala is perfect, and I
don't want anything else I'm satisfied with Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, I love Allah Subhana Allah
to Allah. I am I'm perfectly pleased with Allah as my Lord. Well Bill Islami Dina, and I'm perfectly
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:51
			pleased with Islam as my religion I desire no other theology, no other way of life than the one that
Allah Subhana Allah Allah has perfected and preferred for His creation. And I'm pleased with
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam as my prophet and messenger, there is no other man, that I
would love to follow more than Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, there is no other sunnah. There
is no other example or character that I find more beautiful and more befitting, to me in my own life
as a standard of perfection, whether it's in my family life and the way that I deal with my
community, my Muslim brothers and sisters, my you know, with humanity, there is no more beautiful
		
00:08:51 --> 00:09:27
			example and more perfect example, no, no sort of allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, there is
nothing, no aspect of his life that I can look at, and I can say, is not absolute perfection. And
it's not something for me to strive for in my own life. I'm pleased I'm pleased with Allah Subhana
Allah to Allah, and they're in about the scholars say that there are two forms of law with Allah
there are two forms of being pleased with Allah subhanaw taala there is a liberal Beshara there is
you know, being pleased with the legislation of Allah subhanaw taala being pleased with the religion
that he gave to being pleased with it halal haram, the lawful and the prohibited being pleased with
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:59
			all of that and then there's been you know, there's a little bit cada and be a cover Allah being
pleased with the decree of Allah subhanaw taala being pleased with the tests and the tribulations
and the trials that come your way, knowing that there's a greater wisdom to it, in essence, being
pleased with everything that Allah Subhana Allah, Allah has given to you. And that is a beautiful
approach to life and it's something that Subhanallah we take for granted at times, you know, for
many Muslims and there aren't many Muslim youth here today, but how many of our
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:37
			Muslim youth at one point at school thinking I wish I wasn't Muslim. So I could do that what might
so I could do what my friends are doing just for a day. And that carries onwards. Again, it carries
on to our lives in university, it carries on to our professional lives, that I wish I didn't have to
be in this awkward situation right now. I wish that just for just for a day, I didn't have to be
Muslim. I didn't have to worry about this. You know, I'm on vacation. I wish just for a day, I
didn't have to worry about that. And subhanAllah we see what appears to be the glamour and the glitz
of dunya. And sometimes shape on gets us. And you know, you catch that commercial on that ad where
		
00:10:38 --> 00:11:18
			where everything seems to be perfect because of this. And as people are doing haram, and you think,
Man, I wish I could have that life. I wish I didn't have to worry about this just for a moment. And
subhanAllah at the same time, there are people that are converting to Islam all over the world,
better accepting a life of obligation, a life of lawful and prohibited a life of halal and haram.
No, you know, no trying to circle and find loopholes within the religion, right, accepting all of
the submission that comes with a slap, voluntary, not because they were born into it, and saying
I've never found happiness until today. What does that tell you about the way you're approaching the
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:54
			religion and the way other people are approaching the religion? And so yes, I'm saying that even in
this world of Islamophobia, even in this world where Muslims obviously as an ummah, we're not doing
too well. I would not want to be anything but a Muslim Alhamdulillah for slump. I don't want to be
in any other situation, even if that means being the oppressed, even if that means being in a
situation where you're hated, even if that means being in a situation where people look at you
different people treat you different and it means an extra check at the airport. Alhamdulillah I'm
pleased with it because Allah Subhana Allah, Allah has preferred this way of life for me, and that's
		
00:11:54 --> 00:12:33
			something that we that translates into everything that we do again back to the Juma example. You
know, Allah subhanho wa Taala has prevented some people from coming here that really really want to
be here today. And because of their heart and because of their desire ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada rewards
them and it reminds me as we as Ramadan approaches, and yes, Ramadan is very close. We're past that
six month. You know, that six month waiting period where where you're supposed to get excited about
Ramadan and start preparing yourself for Ramadan. Were only a few months away from Ramadan. And he
might have been Hotjar last Kalani Rahim Allah to Allah He narrates from a group of companions. He
		
00:12:33 --> 00:13:13
			says that it's been narrated from Ibn Abbas and from almoner, local Pablo, the Allahu anhu, and from
others, that to want Ramadan to end is a major sin. It's a Kabira, to want Ramadan to end. Can you
imagine that, to have that desire for Ramadan to go away so that we can get back to our eating
routine and not have to worry about the sun and not have to worry about the dehydration and not have
to worry about, you know, the fatigue and so on so forth in the long nights of total, we that is a
Kabira. It's a major sin in the sight of Allah subhanho wa taala. Because Allah gave you a gift, and
you don't want it. And subhanAllah there are people that because of because of a permanent sickness
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:50
			or a permanent illness, they're not able to fast and you have no idea how many people and you know,
some of you may be here, how many times as an Imam, I've had to talk people out of fasting, because
it's harmful for them, and they will cry, and they will say, but I can't, you know, this will be my
first let alone ever not fasting, what am I going to do? How am I going to do it? Let's say you
know, Allah Subhana Allah, Allah knows you. And you're abstaining from fasting, despite wanting to
fast for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala is very bad in and of itself. It's an act of worship in
and of itself. Allah knows your heart and Allah knows your desire, and the fact that you're longing
		
00:13:50 --> 00:14:28
			for Allah subhanaw taala that's what Allah wants to see from you. It's not about waiting until you
know eight o'clock to break your fast and being really tight. It's the longing that you already have
in your heart, you've already achieved that goal Alhamdulillah and your abstaining is a bother to
Allah subhanho wa Taala there are some people that say, man, you know, do we really have to pray
five times a day? Do I have an excuse now to combine? Do I have an excuse now to shorten do I
haven't and look, Allah Subhana Allah Allah loves that you take advantage of some of those raw some
of those excuses the prophets lie Selim said it's like accepting a gift from Allah and the prophets
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:51
			like some specified for example, when you're on a journey to pray Casa to pray to like eyes instead
of for, for the records that require for records. right to do that is an activity by that's
accepting a gift from Allah subhanaw taala specifically for CASA, but for example, one prayer comes
along. Do you feel a sense of
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:59
			another salah I just pray, Lord, now I've already got to pray also. It's already come upon me. And
what does Allah Subhana Allah say?
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:39
			What either como el Salah como Kosala. You know, the hypocrites when they stand up for prayer, they
said they come and they pray. But when they stand up, they stand up with laziness, who Salah there
is Castle, there's absolutely no desire whatsoever to pray. Since let me get this out of the way.
We're in the Hurlock Abiraterone Illa Allah harsher in and prayer is severe, and it's difficult and
it's harsh except on people that have a sense of humility with Allah subhanho wa Taala there are
some people that seriously drag their feet, wait until there are two minutes left for Salah. And let
me just go get it over with. And you know what, let me just let me let me just pray also right now
		
00:15:39 --> 00:16:21
			just to get it over with and you know, subhanAllah that attitude and that mentality as you have that
there are other people that are sitting in a hospital bed, that are unable to stand and pray
properly. There are people that can't come to the masjid and Allah he you know, they are in tears
because they can't they miss it. You know, they, they desire that opportunity so much. And
subhanAllah they feel like they're missing out on life. Because they're being deprived of doing
sujood and so on so forth. And coming to the mercy of the prostrating properly and going to the
masjid. And here you are, and you know, your, your, your, your turning away from, you know, and
		
00:16:21 --> 00:17:00
			you're saying, another assault, let me just get it over with and Allah knows where that drag is
where that pull is inside of you. And that's offensive. It's offensive to your Creator, that Allah
gave you a gift from the heavens spoken directly to the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam, to pray
these five prayers, and you don't treat them with care and you don't treat them like a gift and you
don't treat them with a sense of with not just the sense of obligation, but with a sense of
gratitude to Allah subhanaw taala you know, hamdulillah Allah gave this to me. And Subhan Allah,
some of you might have seen a video of a man who has a very famous video that went viral a few years
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:44
			ago, of a brother by the name of Abdullah bin Nerima. In Saudi Arabia, a young man and he's not
young anymore, but he was paralyzed from neck down and he didn't used to pray. And subhanAllah he
was being asked on a talk show, what are your three greatest regrets in life? And his number one
regret was that if only I had the opportunity to make sudo to Allah subhanaw taala if only I had the
opportunity to prostrate and he said that you know what, when I used to be healthy, but I didn't
pray, no one felt sorry for me now people look at me and they feel sorry for me. But I'm in I'm in
greater stress now and in greater grief now. And I'm afraid that I'm one of those people that have
		
00:17:44 --> 00:18:22
			lost pants I mentioned in the Quran, Yama Yaksha, for answers for you, the owner Illa sujood. That
is totally your own, that the day that Allah subhanho wa Taala exposes his shin in a way that's
befitting to him Subhana Allah to Allah, and they would be called to prostrate to him on the day of
judgment, but their backs would not allow them they would be stingy, they would remain standard. Can
you imagine? You are seeing a part of Allah subhanaw taala something that ALLAH SubhanA wa exposes
of himself, and you're unable to prostrate? You're unable to bow? Why? What God can Are you the
owner either sujood wahome Sadie moon you were called to prostration when there was absolutely
		
00:18:22 --> 00:19:02
			nothing wrong with you whatsoever. You were called to it. How did you feel? And we find this in the
time of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, people that came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam, and wanted in any way whatsoever to be in His service. It didn't matter how they just
wanted to be in the service of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and to be told that they
didn't have to was was was the most difficult thing for them to hear. Right? I'm gonna have another
demo on the Allahu Taala and who was an elderly men and in the Battle of budget, you know, I'm going
to do more he was already elderly and he could barely walk. And he insisted the prophets lie
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:44
			southern told him just go It's okay. You're you're not obliged. And he said the Rasul Allah but I
want to don't deprive me out of sort of luck don't somehow by saying don't deprive me, and he was
killed in the Battle of desert and the profit slice on him said I saw I'm going to gym or walking in
Jannah with no limp, the limp is gone. Right? This was a desire within him. You find Abdullah
Muhammad Rasul Allah Tada. I know a young man who's whose father essentially had to complain to the
Prophet slice Allah, that he prays too much and he fasts too much and he reads too much Quran Yes.
overzealousness you know, it can happen to a person. Right? And I know, you know, an extremism
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:59
			happens, right? Especially when people try to go from zero to, you know, to 100 in a matter of a day
and night. You know, I know nothing about the religion then all of a sudden I saw some guy on
YouTube and now I want to go to Syria and established Khilafah or Iraq and establish like, what
Wait, slow down
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:41
			Slow your roll, learn salah, learn your religion, learn your theology, learn about your faith, calm
down. You know, your religion is nuanced. Learn it first and take it easy, gradually grow. Right but
that's how it happens to some people now Abdullah Abdullah Ahmed Rasul Allah, I know he's not that
person. He's not going to an extreme end where he is going to harm people or do something crazy, but
he's harming himself. How's he arm he's, he's establishing a standard he's doing something that's
unsustainable. He prays all night long. You know, subhanAllah the night that he got married. And you
know, we're supposed to read a little bit of you know, you're supposed to pray tonight guys with
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:50
			your with your spouse, the night of your marriage of the loving Imran Rasul the law of title and
hope. He finished the entire Quran and those two records.
		
00:20:51 --> 00:21:30
			And his wife said that by the time by the time he finished his to rock I was frigid was already
around. This is the man's wedding night. And I'm going to ask him so the prophets lie Selim says
Yabba su Allah talk to my son, it's too much. And this is not praiseworthy. Right and honored when
he asked the wife of I mean, who would want to complain about a man like that? How is he as a
husband? You know, she said, who are hydrocarbons? He's a good worshiper. He's a good more salt. He
prays a lot. He's a good man. But he's not necessarily a good husband. Right? And the prophets I
send them has to calm him down. Look, you pray too much. You read too much. Oh, and you fast, too
		
00:21:30 --> 00:22:15
			much. Calm down, take it down a notch. And listen to the words he says to the Prophet slicin. It
says Ya rasool Allah, Danny a stem Tiru mencoba to Shalabi says, O Messenger of Allah, allow me to
enjoy, to enjoy my strength, my health, and my youth. Let me enjoy this is his definition of
enjoyment of his youth and of his health is praying more and reading more Quran and fasting more and
the prophets lie Selim tells him to calm down because it's an unsustainable standard that you're
setting for yourself. And that longing that you have for Allah subhanaw taala is enough. That's what
Allah wants to see from you. Allah subhanaw. Taala is not interested in the quantity of things. But
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:52
			it's the longing that you have, that when you are called to do something for Allah Subhana Allah to
Allah, you appreciate that blessing that Allah Subhana Allah has bestowed upon you, and you wouldn't
want to be anywhere else or doing anything else than pleasing Allah subhanho to Allah and Subhan
Allah, Allah has given us that attitude and that mentality, to carry on through every part of our
lives. In every no matter what situation we're in, you know, there's a famous Hadith where the
prophets lie Selim, he said, humble without ILA, and massage it the most beloved places to Allah
subhanaw taala on Earth, are the massages and then the prophets I send them says, what other God
		
00:22:52 --> 00:23:28
			wouldn't be that without the it Allah and the most hated places to Allah subhanho To Allah or what?
A swap the marketplaces so think about that the marketplaces are the most hated places to Allah
subhanaw taala. But when and why is that because they tend to be places that are devoid of the
thicket of Allah subhanaw taala people aren't remembering Allah, they're not mentioning Allah,
especially back then there was no concept of nightclubs and places of fashion and shamelessness. And
so that was a place where people would kind of get together and and there would be things that were
you know, objectionable in our religion, so they're the most hated places to Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:23:28 --> 00:24:12
			But even with that, you will not find a dua that yields more reward than do as Sook. Then the drama
of entering the marketplace. The prophets like Selim said whoever enters into the marketplace and
says La ilaha illallah wa the hula sharika lah Holman cola hemmed up where you meet wha hoo ha yo la
you moot big hill higher Wahoo Allah coalition cordial, that there is no God but Allah Subhana Allah
to Allah, He is alone and his dominion and his worship he has no partners. Love him will call out
your he will you meet he gives life and He gives death will have a higher layer modes and he has
ever living in he never dies. Subhanallah when you when you say these beautiful words of praise as
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:49
			you enter the marketplace, the prophets lie some said there and this is Hadith so here it's an
authentic hadith, that the reward of it is 1 million Hassan ants. And Allah Subhana Allah would take
away from you 1 million say yet one of our whole lot in the last Pantai would increase him $1
million jet 1 million degrees in John. Well done Hola. Hola. Waiting for Jana and Allah will build
for him a house in paradise. Now some of you look at that and say 1 million has not really 1 million
say you could have made the drought while you were debating in your head how it's mathematically
possible. And how many dental jobs are there in John Howard? There's so many degrees in Germany.
		
00:24:49 --> 00:24:59
			Allah gave you a DUA to say upon entering the most hated place to him and the reward of remembering
Allah as you enter into it.
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:40
			It is of the greatest rewards that you can find in the Hadith of the Prophet slice Allah. What does
that tell you? So long as your heart remains connected to Allah subhanaw taala and you long for him
and you're pleased with what he's given you in the legislation of this religion and the Sunnah of
the Prophet, slice Allah, in a halal haram and the lawful in the prohibited understanding that Allah
knows better, for you knows what's best for you, then Allah Subhana Allah, Allah will reward you
accordingly. Right? Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, He knows what's inside your heart, and He knows
what you conceal. And subhanAllah there are so many parents, you know, that, that have children with
		
00:25:40 --> 00:26:15
			autism, that have a hard time coming to the masjid. And they have to take shifts, and some of you
might be those parents, right. And it's and it's difficult for them and they desire it. There are so
many people that have physical, you know, disabilities that are unable to and they desire
Subhanallah I was in Malaysia, and some of you might have seen I posted this a sister by the name of
Nirmala. And this was a sister that that just was, you know, she's in CS stage for cancer. You know,
she has big, big, big things to worry about. But you know, when she was crying about, she was crying
about not being able to attend the Halacha.
		
00:26:17 --> 00:26:56
			Think about that stage for cancer. She's looking death in the eyes. You know, she's staring it in
the eyes. Her husband is there, her father is there. You know, she's suffering in immeasurable ways.
And she's been there for months. And the thing that makes her cry is that she couldn't get to the
masjid to attend the Halacha. Think about that. And And really, that's not to make us feel guilty,
though it should to an extent that's to make us recognize the blessing that Allah Subhana Allah has
bestowed upon us. And when Allah puts everybody in front of you put acts of worship in front of you,
even in the most inconvenient situations, or what are seemingly inconvenient to you. Right, and in
		
00:26:56 --> 00:27:34
			circumstances that are not necessarily ideal when Allah presents you with opportunities, do not show
in gratitude to Allah subhanaw taala without doing your due diligence to it, don't and this is an
internal thing that we're talking about here. When you get up for your Salah, say it hamdulillah I'm
getting up from my salah and hamdulillah I'm so happy that the next Allah has, has come, I'm
desiring the next prayer. I need to learn more about what I'm saying in the prayer so that I can
enjoy it more. I need to give it more time I need to go to the masjid more often and hamdulillah
because I know that it's special. I know that it means something. Right? And that there that there

			is a huge benefit. To this we ask Allah Subhana Allah to Allah to forgive us for our shortcomings.
And we ask Allah Subhana Allah to Allah to put a longing for him and a longing for that which
pleases Him in our hearts and we ask Allah subhanaw taala to direct our hearts, our bodies, our
minds, our souls, towards him and towards that which is pleasing to Him Allah I mean, a quote ocotea

what's happening a lot more somebody was telling me about a color decoder. So they can Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam only he was lucky he was selling to * cathedra the brothers and
sisters were whether we are remembering the oppressed, you know, around the world, whoever they may
be, as they're unable to do certain things that we're able to do, or whether we're remembering those
in our local communities that are unable to do certain things that we do. Obviously, they're, you
know, it's twofold that we help them and we reach out to them, and we do what we can for them. And
		
00:28:48 --> 00:29:24
			at the same time, we appreciate what Allah Subhana Allah has given to us. And subhanAllah. You know,
with that being said, obviously, in a time of hardship, and obviously, the word hardship in and of
itself is a very subjective word. It's very relative, because what's hardship to you is ease to
another person. You know, when you say in the mat nursery, you saw that there's hardship that comes
with, with that there's ease that comes after hardship, your situation and dealing with your
Islamophobia here in the United States, for example, being a Muslim, the looks that we're getting,
and you know, the occasional taunts and insults and things of that sort to the Muslims that live in
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:59
			certain countries in Europe. That was the golden age. You know, that was that was a great time, you
know, for if they were to suffer the amount of Islamophobia that we suffer from here. They would be
pleased with that. And so the point is dear brothers and sisters, Allah has given you your share of
struggle and your share of test in many different forms for worshipping Him and for being a Muslim,
and for striving to please Him, be pleased with Allah Subhana Allah to Allah and recognize that loss

			difficult times is like migrating to meat or migrating with me doing kids or to me, or doing heads
up with me. And Amanda and Rajab Rahim Allah said, because the prophets like Selim, he made hijra,
so that he could so that he could worship Allah subhanaw taala and abandon that fitna that he was

difficult circumstances, it is as if we're making his way to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, and with the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Allah knows. And it starts off with just an

compared to the struggle of many other people around the world, we ask Allah subhanaw taala that he
still looks at it and that Allah subhanaw taala Shaku the one who is far more grateful than we could
ever be that Allah Subhana Allah to Allah rewards it for us and that Allah Subhana Allah to Allah
forgives all of our previous sins and gives us the full reward of Juma and more and we ask Allah

Umrah that he accepts everything that we do for his sake, our charity, that he accepts anything and
everything and that Allah subhanaw taala allows that desire within us to burn to continue to burn to
please Him and to long for him and we ask Allah to forgive us when when our hearts or our bodies
inclined towards anything that is displeasing to Him. Lama Amin Allahumma menino Minato when a
