Right. The Prophet Mohammed is Satoshi Lim says, Whosoever hires You don't even have to visit a sick. How about visiting a Muslim? The Prophet Mohammed also says whosoever will visit somebody,
man, you know, whoever visited a Muslim in the morning 70,000 angels will be praying for him. And whoever does it in the evening 70,000 angels will be praying for him. You just took a fine, what did you do? I took some time to go and visit my Muslim brother or sister who was sick. For instance.
This is
something simple. A smile in the face of your brother is an amateur.

I am happy and pleased with what Allah has given me because there's some people who always complain, they always want more, but they don't see people who have less, right.

Somebody sent

Here, you gotta go to a gym.
Don't walk.
Didn't mean.
To summarize, summarize, here, we're talking about categories.
And we said that everything. It's a comprehensive term, comprehensive term, which comprises of everything that a lot, loves, and approves of, it does not mean only necessity on this amendment. Please, please, please, I beg you, please.
That is not only restricted to your brain, or within all the things that you have mentioned here today, on a bed. And when you do that, you will get rewards from mobicip hana without him. And we said we can worship Allah, we would you know, our heart, we can worship and pray, who can worship Allah with our physical faculties with our organs? Right? Here's the thing I mentioned, you know, and we talked about, we defined the data, and we saw talked about the categories of a better now,
why do we worship? And how do we worship? Two things.
For you to be accepted. This is how I'm going to tell you and then chocolate and give me some examples for you to be accepted. It's got to meet two conditions
for you, to accept it, it's got to meet two conditions. condition number one, it's got to be pure condition number two, it's got to be correct.
I need to explain for you a better to be accepted. It's got to meet these two conditions. Take your facts about this. And tell your friends about this. For any battle to be accepted. It's got to meet two conditions. condition number one, champagne,
has the advantage of cold water shopping, or photoshopping a shot our condition number one, it's got to be pure condition number two is got to be correct. What does pure mean and what does correct me pure means
who said who said that person
and media pure. It's got to be sincere. It's got to be sincere. It's got to be pure. I'm doing it solely to please Allah.
Not to show off.
I'll give you an example.
Here I am praying. All right, I need to pray. I need to pray. Okay, so you guys are all watching me, you know?
You want to come and I can sit.
Here is you guys all watching right? And I'm gonna bring up Jimmy if my soul is accepted. Yeah, I mean, you will know if
we're doing
it the wrong way I
want to show
your viewer, okay, now it has to be correct with us correct me it's got to be in accordance with the sunart the Prophet Mohammed as I said, it's got to coincide with the sooner for instance, for instance, how many do we have installed the door for four? Okay, let's say I say I love a lot very much. I'm gonna pray. And my intention is good. My intention is very pure. I'm going to pray six, which I liked. better for me. Why? Because it's not correct. It's not correct. You see, although I'm sincere and it's pure
but it is not correct. So to those who say, I love Allah, I'm just gonna do this more you know that there's only four like I didn't know you have to pray for the three look at the model you have to create three, the four condition you have to see a better has to be in accordance with the you know with the Sunnah of the Prophet Mohammed. Now the the golden question, why do we worship?
So you said because I have to. Some of you say this because to please Allah. Some of you said
is because my parents are because I love
to thank Allah. All right, cool. You know what? Let's let's let's fly. I think you want to fly. You want to fly? You believe you want to fly?
You believe you can
try to fly man? Can you fly like a bird? You can just try try. Try.
So for him to fly? Isn't that fun? A bird.
A bird to fly with does a bird need to fly?
wings, wings and what
I'm
talking about physically, what a virtual fly he would need. wings and the head kind of bird fly on his head.
No kind of bird fly without head what we're doing so the birds fly with only one wing
eventually fall.
This is how we worship a lot.
What? Listen, I'm giving you something really deep.
Using the example of the verb. We worship Allah subhanho wa Taala three things. We worship Allah
of love
and fear and hope.
These three things burns, the two wings and the head. I worship Allah with you know, with hope, hoping for his mercy. I hope you know there's some people who say I don't have to pray. But a lot of social is great unless forgiven. I hope a little bit Forgive me
that it does not work. You worship Allah with hope and fear. You fear Him for His punishment with the some people only who worship Allah for fear. Like they say, Yeah, you're gonna go here fine. If you don't pray, you're gonna you know if you don't have fire. If you don't do this, you're gonna hold a fire. everything for them is fear, love, you worship Allah for fear and of hope, hoping for his mercy because he's great. He's the Forgiving, and offer of love to loving. I love Washington because I love him some kind of I love him because he blessed me with so many things. Let's talk about that in Sharla. Thank you. Let's talk about this. Why do we worship allies that we worship?
I'm going to give you only two examples on beat on Shabbat.
Because I think you guys are bored.
All right, well, I'll give you a couple of things and then maybe give me what you think tell me what you think. We worship Allah subhanho wa Taala Why? Because it is the right of Allah. I worship you not because you see this once you understand what lie I swear by Allah. Once you understand this concept. This will change the way you look at a data from now on. This will change the way you pray. This will change the way we live. And this will change everything in your life. Once you understand this concept.
I worship Allah, Allah, because it is his Huck It is his right. You know my parents they have rights upon me. You You have rights upon your parents.
We you know you have rights upon each other. Allah has upon us yeah it is right. What is a loss right that we worship in? It is not I'm doing a favor for Allah you know what i'm pretty sure it's not because I'm giving them a favor. You don't give me as a favor. You know, when you're praying you think he's giving you and he's gonna add something to the domain of Allah. You say you can add something to his treasures. Allah does not need you to pray. So I'm gonna help him. You need to prove yourself to help yourself. So you pray for your God for Allah. For the sake of Allah now it's all for the sake of Allah. But I pray that it's not gonna add anything to Allah no doing no favors
to Allah subhanahu wa Tada. I pray because it is his heart. It is his right. He created me, he created me so I can worship him somehow without so I can love him so I can know Him. How can you worship someone who don't know?
You worship Allah but you don't know who Allah is?
We don't know. We just thought Allah is the Creator. He's the giver. He's everything but who is he? Really? Why do you send if you really know who Allah is would you be sitting? If you really know that a lion watching you would you be longing but love us we do understand that Allah is watching us that listens to us, and he hears us but sometimes when you're alone on your phone, and your parents are away on your PC when your parents are away or when nobody's around, and you may be looking at something
and you know, you're not watching and you're not listening yet you'll be doing something because you do not know who
truly is but once and only once we know what
it is then that will change our concept of a Banda we will love him more it is his heart like I said look, Allah subhana wa tada has blessed us guys
who can just so you understand maybe because maybe I'm not making sense here.
Do you know who can tell me some of the blessings that Allah has blessed us with?
by our parents our blessing from Allah.
Allah Xhosa led to a lot of stuff Thompson, who can tell me some of the blessings of
the cow, the cow, the cow
milking the cow is
a cow.
As you've been telling you examples of a Cow Cow.
Food, okay.
Safety. Do you know guys, guys, guys? How many people are from
Odisha India.
Even Egypt, man.
You know, in some countries you don't feel safe.
You know what the sister said? She says safety is
you know when you're going to sleep? Do you hear bombs, Jet planes? Do you hear things b j people being killed? Like, you know, shooting and stuff like it's happening in some countries is every day people are killed. You know, there's this brother when I was in the US. I used to live in San Francisco in the dorms in San Francisco State University. I used to live in the dorm. And there's one brother who's 17 years old. His name was Madison, Madison, he moved from philosophy. And he moved to the US. And we used to share the same room. And I'd like to tell him mesin tell me about philosophy. He was only 17 years old. He was from Africa. Those kids used to throw stones and stuff.
So it used to tell him at night, you know, we had to share in the rooms because we're students, I should tell him. So tell me tell me about one last thing. And you should tell me how many times he he escaped death in the land of death. Because sometimes he used to know what knock on the door is the shoulders. Two o'clock in the morning, three o'clock in the morning. There's a big rock, they will not want to move in. They will go to the closest home, they will knock at the door to clock in the morning. They say come bring your kid or whoever come and tell them to move that rock. And they used to do some crazy things. You sit in how many times so he came to San Francisco. Right? He came
to San Francisco. And then center is called the land of wonder. No fun and everything. And then he went in the summer of 1991 or 1990. He went this before you guys were even born 1990. And then where did he go? He went to an island called Virgin Islands. Have you guys heard of the Virgin Islands? Yes, it's in the West. Right? So he went Why? Because his father used to own a limousine company. So he wants to drive a limo in the fall in the summer for his father in the limo. You know
He would in the land of fun in the land of joy. It's an island, his tourist, his son, the beach is
his driving, right? And then his customers, one of these customers, they shot him and stole his money. He died in the land of joy and fun, he escaped death in the land of death in the land of joy. You see, some of us don't think of this normalization of safety. As the sister said, to be safe to feel safe. I go home, I'm not scared that you know, they will come and read my home and take our father or shoot us will take us to general No, because I'm safe. This is a map of US and Canada with the idea that we live in Canada.

Islam is a great name. I don't understand it. We don't understand the value of us being Muslims, just to be able to see now.
Let me tell you the story that happened to me when I was in. In Arizona. I think I heard of a state called Arizona. Yeah.
This happened in 1991.
I went to this mission in Arizona in a cynical Tucson near Phoenix. So I went to this beautiful mission, it's still there. And this mission looks like of course, in a hollow spin. Exactly. They build it with the same format, the same design. And a lot of people used to come to that mosque non Muslims as well to visit the mosque. So I was coming up, I praise God. And I came up and then this Caucasian guy, white guy, blond hair blue, I was coming in, I looked at him I saw him going in. I thought to myself is a guy. We just want to comment to have the most berries. Yeah, just a lot of people do that. I think for us to perhaps have one lucky I swear by a lot. Do I look like a liar?
No.
So I came to present. The guy was there is a young guy. And he persisted.
I went and they asked me this question. I said to him, What brought you to Islam? He said his name is Nana, I asked him the same question. I said, What project is that? And at the time, there was the Gulf War. And we Muslims, there were people looking at us, like we're bad people that in the West, they were looking at us and we were belittled and whatnot. And a lot of people were talking about what is the game, this guy who became most and I told him the same question. What he said, You know, he told me you guys want to hear Sure.
All right. He said, I came out from my house this morning. And I said, God, I want this one like that's what he said, God, I want peace. I'm tired.
I'm in loss. I want peace, strongly peace. He opened the home the war. He saw a bird or like this Elisa, he saw a bird and he said that bird is the symbol of peace. I'm gonna follow the bird.
He didn't fly. But you he just went and the bird was flying. And then the bed, the bird densitometry. And then he goes, and then he you know, and then the bird again flies a little bit to another truth and he follows the bird. And then the guy you know, the bird again, flies and then on lands on another tree. And then he gets off for when the bird elter the bird landed on the minaret of the mosque.
And he uttered the message. He says one proximities there is a bird.
It's not you Muslims.
Another time in San Francisco in the military. This guy came a Caucasian guy. And he was so angry at us. I know. They told us he says you people. My father just died. And I hold you are responsible because you Muslims, you talk about Muslim and you talk about gender. And you talk about heaven. And my father died as a non Muslim. I hold you all responsible. None of you has ever come to talk to us about this now. Is 10 is a great now. The fact that you are able to see that is a lot. You know you can never pay back. There's no money. It's got no money. It's priceless. It is priceless to be Muslim. You know, when you were in the womb of your mother remember? What do you
know when you were in the womb of your mother? Did somebody brought you an application that says you want to be born Muslim true Christian and he said that it is Muslim?
No Did anybody you know any new Muslims here any reverts of young Muslims aren't you? Are you Muslim? By what by
Because my father happens to be Muslim, Muslim too, but there's some people who are Muslim by choice. They choose to be Muslims.
They searched and searched and searched. And then we eventually they went, you know, one guy came to me in the UK, he said she, I saw drink and interpret my dream. I said, Man, I don't interpret dreams. But Dimitri, he says, I won't lie. It was a Sikh.
Indian Garcia, yeah. What he said, is that I saw a dream. He said, in his dream is what he said. He said, I saw a dream in my gym. I was trying to open a door. And the door was very heavy. I couldn't open the door, came Jesus. I said, How do you know what Jesus I know who is Jesus here? I don't use it with us. So Jesus came to help me open the door. And he was trying to open the door, but the door was very, very hard. He still couldn't open and there was a man passing by. And then Jesus Christ has called that man called me and he will help you open the door. And then he said, Who is that man? So? Come, come at that man came and he opened the door for me. And then he told Jesus, Jesus was
that man, he says, his name is Mohammed.
He told me she was the meaning of my dream. So you don't need me to translate your dream for you. This is a translated dream already. Mohammed came to open the door for him.
Jesus, this wasn't his dream. He does not know. But Jesus got it printed. He said, Jesus, that's Mohammed. This is the dream. All right, I'm not making enough.
Right. So here's the thing. I'll try to tell you guys. You should be so blessed and proud and thankful and grateful that you are Muslims. Islam is a neuroma beyond that Eman because there's some other Muslims, but there's something better than Muslims more among believers. There's so many Muslims, but maybe some of them are out there maybe
give them guidance. Maybe they're dancing or doing drugs or alcohol or whatnot, you know, but you people are motivated unless the next is to be here today to come to the ministry to pray to listen to this halaqaat to participate. So Eman is an AMA from Allah subhanho wa Taala give me some other you know, you know, let me let me let me let me tell you what we foresee going
on and in yourself that you see
in yourself can you see just in your America walking on earth? you as a human being you are America walking on earth? Look as much as you like when you look at yourself in the morning and you say Wow, you must look so good. No, no My dad told me
so but you look at yourself in the morning. Do you think a lot for what you see? Yeah, yes.
Oh yeah.
Have you ever said thank him for his eyes? Have you ever tend to laugh while your eyes Do you know something that his eyes there's something happening something really interesting. I heard from some scientists they said in a country or any place when the weather is minus 67 everything will freeze instantly. Instantly you put something like albick water it will freeze before your eyes when the weather is minus 67 yards in the North Pole. It goes over that. If you anything will freeze instantly. Imagine this man this human being who lives there.
Do you guys know that you have liquid in your eyes?
How can the eye in the liquid you know in your eyes doesn't freeze salty? So because Allah has put something back some sort of muddle like some sort of chemical that is against in Oregon antifreeze.
Anything would freeze except the liquid in your eye. Some pharma Have you ever looked you know imagine this you know, look at your eyes Mashallah for

I don't want you to think about this place it's not funny I want you to think think think think think with me why why why I was made this thing like that you know when you sleep and when you open your mouth

creator who is the controller? Who is the door he's the one who says things
all the time and watches all over us
so this is why worship worship because it is his hub It is his right I'm almost done you guys I'm almost done. It is his right?
Is that your fault?
You don't talk to that girl.
I told you if you want to talk to her to go and ask them

Don't text her. We're just talking about how
we worship Allah because it is his hack. It is his right. It is the right of Allah subhana wa tada The one who created us whatever incentive fee
Allah has created as from the best shapes of animal data. You see how you move this thing is a look how many jobs do we have no buddies you guys 400 206 know how many joints do we have? You know what a joint This is a joint This is a joint This is a joint
how many jobs do we have? How many jobs 360 jobs
60 6060 jobs? The Prophet Mohammed bin Salman welcome says every day we have to pay charity for every job that we have. Imagine charity for every job that we have set up the Sahaba said the competition How can we do that was too much then it's $60 almost like a day then he said the promises a smart saves from hammer is silica silica, silica, silica
silica a smile in the face of your brother silica go to the mission center helping the needy helping the poor it's all sorted out so you don't have to like give sadaqa to be considered to be you know to be given sadaqa to earn the reward of sadaqa all these you know actions I have talked about are also because it's it's all about you know why I want to worship in our worship because it's right and number two, I worship Allah Subhana Allah and I'm gonna end with this in sha Allah. I worship I'm not because a panda is the rescue is the food to my soul.
And may sound a little bit too
not cheesy. Philosophically again.
Cheesy. A bad a bad that is the sisters to my soul. Do you guys need to eat to survive? Don't you
ever find
they have pizza waiting for you guys outside pizza?
Pizza because they are finals?
So what would happen? What would happen me? Hey, guys, I can I would.
Please, please.
Please. Of course I just like
I said a better is the system is to my soul is the food to my soul to my soul. We need to eat to survive. Don't we imagine the guy with a horse? I got he feeds his horse all the time, but he doesn't feed himself. So today he's going to jump on his horse what's going to happen to the horse when the horse starts? Gotta
fall. Why?
Because he's weak. Thank you because he's not strong. He's been feeding his soul. I mean, he's the horse.
But he's not feeding himself. He's what happens to a lot of people today. They feed their body, but they don't feed the soul.
You don't feel like
you just feed yourself, you know, you only care about yourself. You only care about the way you look. You only care about the way you feel. But you don't care about the inside. You know, this is why I need to get back into anybody because, you know, some people are happy. Have you heard about her? So people are happy committing suicide, this singer committed suicide, this actor committed suicide and they're billionaires, they have a lot of money, right? but yet they wouldn't have committed suicide. Why aren't they happy? They have all the money, they have all the cars.
They have the latest car, they have the latest house and the latest stuff, yet they committed suicide. Why are they happy? What are they missing?
They're missing something from inside, the missing the better from the soul the missing, you know, the soul is empty. The heart is empty. This is why a lot of people somehow they come to that guy that I told you it was all in the bird. You know, his heart was empty and he wants happiness. The true happiness. true happiness is not about the latest phone. true happiness not about having the latest, you know, maybe jeans or shoes or boots or this or that or whatnot, leave really the true happiness is been pleased with a laptop or set.
been pleased with our mother's true happiness. Maybe you'll be so happy, happy. You'll be so happy that you'll be praying will lie and you feel the sweetness of decision that you would not want to come from this.
You will feel the true sweetness to feel something so sweet.
And you feel something some others that
and they just want it
but and demonstrable because you made that decision. You feel you feel the sweetness of decision. You feel.
You feel the parallel you feel the sweetness, your heart is filled with the love of Allah be pleased with Allah worldwide. that's priceless.
Allah bless you all.
An ally, don't you think does
your parents will make
Britain will do that in Charlottetown? When I travel, I'm praying for you. Again, let me just summarize, summarize quickly, what did we talk about today? We talked about a badda.
warship we talked about the categories or kinds of Remember, we talked about, you know, how do we worship? How do we worship the two conditions? What are the conditions?
The correctness and we talked about? Why do we worship right? Why do we worship I said two things.
But how you know like why I give the why the why like because it is the half of Anwar and number two, because
is the food to my soul, I need a bed and not only my buddy, I need to feed my buddy and I need to feed my heart. I need to feed my soul. And I need to do that with
you. So I know I heard you have exams Chatelet be making that for all of you right now. And you make that for yourselves as well. And here's a trick. Another trick that I saw a trick, it's not a trick. It's a key.
What is your exams tomorrow?
Tomorrow this week, that day before your exam you guys pray Of course, you don't cool. The day before your exam you're gonna wake up half an hour before for
half an hour to one hour before further further now is at 526 161 heavy this map 61 is further wake up at 530 that's a factor and make really good rule do not just like ah, not that Oh, the law I want perfect. Or really like perfect. All right. And then you go and pray for God or for all right. And once you finish, but make the really good that you pray, pray that nobody's watching you just be doing a lot of people are sleeping, not your standard and your brain right. Pray to a cat. nice, neat, easy, slowly. Once you're done. We'll just sell out, raise your hands. Start with Bismillah Alhamdulillah wa Salatu was Salam ala rasulillah always anytime you make you have to start by
praising Allah thanking him and then sending Salaam a prophet Mohammed if you don't do this, there's something missing you that and then start calling Allah with using his names. Yeah, Hey, can you have your sum of all the names of all that you know of? And then in English, do it in English, in Arabic, in Arabic in although they all do in Chinese, Mandarin Chinese What about language
Allah speaks all languages. And then ask him from your heart
as came from your heart to help you and make it easy for you in your exam, exam shallow talent, but you have to study don't just study say she told me the trick, I'm just gonna do that and they're gonna go you know, if you don't study make guy you could pray the whole night, you know what you're gonna get through z? z doesn't exist but I made it to z minus zero not even zero minus, you're not gonna get none you could pray the whole night. Don't think that that that they would come and tell you what to do as you do will not come to you
he will not come I guarantee he will not come to you. I am serious you're not gonna come to you. You study and then you wake up half an hour to one hour before for that as if you're sending a text message to Allah Subhana Allah with that with the shot.
I promise you, I promise you, you will Ace that exam.
Good luck.
All right now.
All right.
I'm gonna say God and you can see
we have to be serious because we are calling upon Allah right? I cannot be bothered with smiling and laughing
Bismillah Alhamdulillah wa salatu salam ala rasulillah. A lot of Mohammed Mohammed. Yeah, that's unfortunate. Prophet witness it. Yeah. I'm getting what I'm doing when I'm different.
Yeah, no, yeah. No. Yeah. But yeah, so now what? Yeah, then when you come? Yeah, are you? Yeah. And are you a cynical Muslim? Or get an accountant? to some of the dead who don't get it? What have you wouldn't get
a sonogram from me? Yeah, from what we know from me.
And nothing. I don't know if you know, Amina had been in the hospital, when he left, Russia would have been a lot better. When upon that data, when I'm worried an illustrator, when I'm worried an illustrator, when
you're up at any level data has come to me with a sharp bend in data or somebody asked me what it has an inheritance, you know what I mean? You know, you know, that there are a lot of them. I have
a lot more.
A lot of wasted on 200. You know, I'll probably get
me a lot when I said that eliminate
a lot of mistakes.
A lot of them a second. I didn't even know. Yeah. Well, I'm not asked you by everyone we know. And we asked you by everything which we did not know, we asked you by your greatest name, that by which if you were to be called you will give us your anatomy to protect all of us.
You ought to be guided your youth you ought to be guided people who are here, guide them know that you protect them. Help them in the exams, make the exams easy.
