Allah rasool Allah who forgot the first 1000 or Lima Allah Allahu Akbar, Allah Allahu Akbar, Allah
Allahu Akbar na Ilaha illa Allah, Allah Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, when Allah al Hamd. We begin by
praising Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, we declare His greatness we declare His Oneness, we thank him
for the many blessings that He sent to us, amongst them, this beautiful month of Ramadan. And
		
00:10:42 --> 00:11:18
			amongst those many blessings, the sending of the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa salam, as a
mercy to the worlds we ask Allah subhanaw taala to send his peace and blessings upon him, the
prophets and messengers that came before him, his family and companions that served alongside him
and those that follow in his blessing path until the day of judgment and we ask Allah to make us
amongst them Allah Maha Amin, dear brothers and sisters, ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada says, couldn't be
fought Lillah wa rahmatullahi fabby Dominica for the opera who hide on lineage, Marilyn, say in the
bounty of Allah and in His mercy in this guidance that he has sent, not just the text, but the
		
00:11:18 --> 00:12:02
			context, not just something that is abstract, but something that is so beautifully manifest in the
person of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam in this guidance that fills a void in the hearts
that cannot be filled with anything else. Let them find joy in that. And that is better than what
anyone else can compile. That is better than and how can we to care for those that are destroyed by
the pursuit of quantity, that guidance that fills the heart, that guidance that gives you a sense of
purpose, that guidance that gives you a sense of clarity, and whoever has clarity has joy has
happiness and SubhanAllah. What I want to speak about in these few minutes that we have today is
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:41
			when Allah subhanaw taala mandates joy when Allah commands you to have joy, what does that even
mean? On this day right now? It would be haram for you to fast, it would be prohibited for you to
fast on this day or on the other eat. Why? Because the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam said these are
days of joy, celebration, feasting, these are days where we are to celebrate the Mercy of Allah
subhanaw taala upon us this is not a day of fasting, if there is any good in it. Then the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam who loved his Ibadah more than anyone else or anything else. He would
have fasted Salah Hardy, who was salam as a form of coming close to Allah, but he did not do so it
		
00:12:41 --> 00:13:24
			is Salatu was Salam, the same prophet, and he his Salatu was Salam. And the Companions who were in
the masjid with their tents pitched for 10 consecutive nights worshiping Allah subhanaw taala with
their eyes bloodshot. As soon as the day of Eid came suddenly in that same masjid, you have the
Abyssinians during war dances, you had the children running around and playing and singing. And this
was not a cognitive dissonance, in fact, because they found their joy and they found their
fulfillment from the same source Allah subhanaw taala. And so these were not a people that turned
the page of obedience into disobedience. These were people that found joy in their Salah and found
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:54
			joy in their celebration, and connected it all back to Allah subhanaw taala and understood that
Allah gives us these things for our own good when Allah commands happiness, some of the brothers and
sisters would say, how can we celebrate Eid knowing what's happening to our brothers and sisters in
Palestine or in Afghanistan? How can we celebrate eight How can we smile? How can we find joy and
laughter? You know what? Allah never cancelled aids. The Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam never
cancelled aid.
		
00:13:55 --> 00:14:36
			At what year in the life of the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam did they not bury Shahada? Did
they not bury martyrs? When were they between bedded and or the conduct and everything in between?
What year? Did they not have widows and people that suffered great catastrophes? What year did the
Prophet sallallahu angsana not lose one of his own family members, but they never canceled or eat,
no matter what happens because Allah subhanaw taala knows that we need this sometimes we need that
joy. And it's not sinful, to be happy. Sometimes it is necessary because you can be happy without
being heedless. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam as Abdullah and how to follow the Allah to
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:59
			Allah and who says Mara a to add and cut. I never saw anyone in my life Aclara Testament when
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam who smiled more than the prophets of Allah Azza wa sallam, I
want you to think about that. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam carried the hand carried the
burden of his own man more than anyone else will soon allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam suffered
when anyone suffered the Prophet salallahu Salam
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			could hear the complaining of the animals.
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:40
			Still the prophets lie some smiled. The prophets lie some buried his children. Still he smiled.
Salalah Harney was salam. The prophets lie some suffered from such extreme poverty that he had to
tie a stone to his stomach. Still, he smiled sallallahu alayhi wa sallam still when I showed the
Allahu Allah Allah Allah says that the Prophet sighs I'm used to come home, he did not come home sad
He didn't come home bringing the ham bringing that this stress that he had on the outside into his
house. She said she said Will the Allah Tala and that the prophets lie Selim used to be full of
laughter when he came home, always making jokes, always bringing joy to the house. He didn't bring a
		
00:15:40 --> 00:16:20
			heavy presence to the house. He brought a an uplifting presence to the house sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, because he had that balance or the his Salatu was Salam. He understood that when Omar
cleavable The Allahu taala, and he says that in a culture where we used to mourn our dead for months
and years anniversaries every month after someone passes away, anniversaries every single year after
someone passes away, the types of practices that signified death and mourning muscle Allah salAllahu
Alaihe Salam prohibited us from mourning our dead ones more than three days except for a widow for
husband, four months and 10 days. That doesn't mean that you don't feel sadness after that. But
		
00:16:20 --> 00:17:02
			Allah and the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam understand that you need to move forward, not
move on. You don't move on from Ramadan, you move forward with Ramadan. You don't suddenly move on
from those knights of tilba that you just had those knights of repentance and say all of that is
done. You move forward with it. And when you bury a loved one or you bid farewell to someone that
you love, you move forward, not on from them forward with them. You carry the lesson you carry a new
unlocked level of Taqwa and reverence of Allah subhanaw taala. But you have joy, you have joy, Allah
commands it. Allah subhanaw taala commands you to thank him And subhanAllah the equivalent of E to
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:46
			Ramadan, dear brothers and sisters, is when you finish your Salah and when you finish your Salah,
the first thing you do is you say a stuff that Allah stuff and Allah stuff that Allah Yadav Forgive
us. Forgive us for our deficiency in this prayer. But then you say Allah Allah Anta Salam wa Minkus
salaam to Bharatiya dal Jalali will come, Oh Allah, you are peace. You are peace and from you is
peace from you is peace, as if to say that Subhanallah the peace that I just found in this prayer as
salam or aleikum wa rahmatullah peace to everyone that is to my right, and peace to everyone and
everything that is to my left Allah Allah Anta Salam, I'm full of a sense of salam from Eunoia
		
00:17:46 --> 00:18:26
			Allah, there is something that came through this prayer. Likewise, when it comes to hajj, there is a
celebration after the day of alpha. Can you imagine the tears of the prophets lie some in his
companions on the day of alpha, the most sinful of people, when they go on the day of alpha will
find a way to cry. Can you imagine the prophets I summon his companions on the day of alpha, but
once they move forward, they said the same thing that we say today, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar,
Allahu Akbar, La ilaha illa Allah, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, when Allah al HEMTs, they praise him,
and they thank him. And they said, hamdulillah for these moments of joy, their brothers and sisters,
		
00:18:26 --> 00:19:04
			we have a deen that gives us optimism, a religion that teaches us to be joyful, to be happy, not
heedless, to be grateful, not greedy to see the best of everything in every situation that is put in
front of us, and to be able to say Alhamdulillah in every single situation, and Allah subhanaw taala
did not even exempt did not even exempt our relationship with Him. Allah azza wa jal did not make it
so that we would be crying on the day of our eat and wondering if I Ramadan was accepted, from the
moment that the chawan Halal came in.
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:45
			You transform that is too far that seeking forgiveness from Allah subhanaw taala into a moment of
gratitude and joy. And we say yeah, Allah, we call upon you with certainty that you have accepted
our Ramadan Baden Allah He to Allah, the Prophet sighs sunset other Allah wa and Tomoki Nona BT

worship, Ya Allah gather us all in it for the dose and Allah where we can have the true Eid with the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam in it for the dose of Allah, that true celebration, where we are

us, Allah Allah Allah Allah, O Allah be pleased with us, oh Allah be pleased with us. Oh Allah be
pleased with us. We ask Allah Subhana Allah Allah to forgive us for any shortcomings. We ask Allah
subhanaw taala to bring joy to our hearts, joy to our families, joy to our community. And we ask
		
00:20:38 --> 00:21:20
			Allah subhanaw taala that as much as we taste this joy, that we want to share that joy with everyone
that is around us, whether that means uplifting someone who is downtrodden, or that means spending
upon one in poverty or that means sharing the message of la ilaha illAllah Muhammad Rasool Allah
with those who are spiritual seekers, may Allah subhanaw taala put joy in our hearts and bring joy
to others through us and may Allah subhanaw taala guide us and guide through us. Allah Amin Robina
