Let's see.
Smell out.
Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
I welcome you back into another episode of afflictions of Ramadan. We're still talking about how to earn the love of Allah subhana wa Tada.
We have spoken so far about obedience of Allah will earn you the love of Allah subhana wa Tada. We have spoken about obedience of the Prophet Mohammed to them, meaning reviving the teachings of the Prophet Mohammed Salim will earn as the love of Allah subhana wa Tada. We also spoke about Tila was the institution of the end will earn you the love of Allah subhana wa tada we have spoken about also the vicar of Allah, which will also help you to love the members of Allah when earning the love of Allah Subhana Allah and we have spoken about and the weapons supererogatory prayers which will also earn you the love of Allah subhana wa tada meaning voluntary prayers.
So another element inshallah that will also help us to earn the love of Allah is
something quite simple, which is visiting one another, visiting one another will earn us the love of Allah. Yes, how? Well, the prophet Mohammed is set to set himself in such Muslim, but a man who was traveling to visit somebody in this other town, and he was met by someone who asked him, where are you going? So that man, as I said, I'm just going to the next town to visit so and so. And then the man asked him, do you have anything that you need from him is is why are you going to visit him? Is there anything you need from him? He says, No, the message No, I don't need nothing from him except that I love him for the sake of Allah, except that I love him for the sake of Allah subhana wa Tada.
And then the other man says, Well, let me tell you, I'm an angel from the heavens, Allah Subhana, which Allah has sent me to tell you, that he loves you, as you love that man that you chose to go and visit recevied in LA for the sake of Allah, this is inside a Muslim, right? So visiting one another will earn you the love of Allah. When was the last time you visit somebody for the sake of Allah without needing nothing from him or wanting nothing from him, just because maybe you missed him, maybe that person was not there for sacrificial as it was the the the etiquettes as with the Sahaba, the companions of the Prophet Mohammed dallisa, to Sudan. You know, when when somebody does
not come from Asia, they said maybe this person is sick. And then if the same person does not show up for further, they would know that that person is definitely sick, they would go and visit him.
That was the teaching. That was the etiquette you know, at the time of the Prophet Mohammed between the notes on the work of the Sahaba of the companions of the Prophet Mohammed That is to say,
just visiting you know, picking up the phone, I know we're busy nowadays, but how about just to pick up the phone and then call your brother and ask about him or your sister and ask about her? How you doing? How you doing? Sister? Are you doing brother? Are you okay? I just didn't see you today in South Africa or Asia or I haven't seen you in quite some time or just taking you know the steps in the action to go and knock at the door and you know, and visit them. I know sometimes now people want to come and visit you and you know could be misinterpreted you know, because nobody comes in visitors nowadays except you know, whenever they need something when I'm talking about maybe you
know the majority, there's definitely some good cases you know, out there, but oftentimes when people call you on the phone or come to visit us, they would need something from you so Pamela, right. But here is you chose to go and visit them for what for the sake of Allah why because you love them for the sake of Allah that will earn you the love of Allah subhanho wa Taala
loving to visit each other for the sake of Allah subhana wa tada will earn you the love of Allah.
Another thing that will earn you the love of Allah subhana wa tada is pmla the night prayer This is inside Muslim. The Prophet Mohammed Elisa to see them says that the most beloved Salah in the sight of Allah after the mandatory Salah is pmla is the night prayer, praying at night.
You know, praying at night, you know, especially in the last hours of the night was by Allah subhanho wa Taala comes down in a way that befits His Majesty and he looks at those who pray. Men, you're stuck really afraid of life.
Many of the
men in the room yesterday Bella, who asked me I shall give him what he asked for who asked for forgiveness, I shall forgive him who supplicates me I shall grant his supplication in the last third of the night.
One of the most beautiful beloved Salah for the Prophet Mohammed dallisa to Sudan and the Sahaba these the love the perform the night prayer, it really substance The heart is one of the prayers that softens the heart is the night prayer. Allah subhana wa tada enlightens the face of those Subhana Allah who pray the night prayer, you see them you know them somehow that is a sign in their faces, you know, those who wake up and pray the night prayer.
If you have anything that you need from Allah Subhana Allah to either stand up and pray in the middle of the night and crying for Allah asking that's the best time to make
maybe half an hour an hour you know before so to
make it a habit
start with to look for work and then you just gradually you know go and then make it as the Prophet used to do you know, no more than 11 or 13 Nautica
you know, eight and then with windows so that's 11 aloka. But the trick is that the properties to pray are very longer cast. So here you can make long Sousou long, low core
beautiful, try it. The night prayer
will earn you the love of Allah subhana wa Tada. salata, lane, pm lane will earn you the love of Allah subhana wa tada a sub perseverance will earn you the love of Allah subhana wa tada

Nam is one of the silver lining this universe to be tested to be trialed is a test from Allah subhana wa Tada. It's a it's a it's a it's in fact, one of the ways of Allah subhana wa Taala in this universe.
As Allah Subhana Allah says in the end of hesi banaswadi takakura m and o hoomin. Afternoon. What
do people will think that they will be left out without being trialed? We have trialed people before them.
And we shall put them under trial as well.
For the element of loneliness or the core element of KGB. So here you will differentiate between the truthful ones and those liars who claim that they are believers. And then when they hit by some calamity, they start cursing. So
perseverance Subbu patience. Yes.

upon you. So just you have no other choice by but being, being patient and persevere and don't despair of the mercy of Allah subhanho wa Taala that will earn you the love of Allah. Allah loves those who steadfast those who are patient
another thing that will earn you the love of Allah subhana wa tada is that you you perfect your actions, as the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam says that Allah subhana wa Taala loves people whenever they do an action they perfect it.

while motivating, staying clean will also earn you the love of Allah. Now, staying clean will earn you the love of Allah you know the Voodoo that you do at all times you know before you pray and whatnot and also the bad that you know just staying clean cleanliness is part of the email of the Prophet Mohammed Elisa to slim says, while your head with the webbing or your headboard Matata hating, Allah loves those who repent and those who remain in the state of purity of cleanliness.
That will earn you the love of Allah subhanho wa Taala and I'd like to end with this in sha Allah that will earn us the love of Allah subhana wa tada is these gatherings
