We think can we glorify and we praise Allah subhanho wa Taala for
the bounty of Islam
for the favor of Eman
and I'll do on this auspicious day of Joomla

that are true to our iman

and our lips.
And we pray unto Allah subhanho wa Taala sincerely that each and

And that He gives us Jana
the highest of Jana Jana tofield dose.
I mean, yeah, but I mean,
allow me again my respected elders and Brothers and Sisters in Islam
to greet you as salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
says Allah subhanho wa Taala in the Noble Quran
in surah, total costs in the 22 Jews
Serrato Casas is a Surah that was revealed during the time period
when the Prophet Alayhi Salatu was Salam
was in Makkah.
In the first period of the first 10 years after the Prophet Alayhi
Salatu was Salam had received the washi
and that he had been given the responsibility to convey the
message.
Up until the just before he migrated to Medina, the scholars
refer to this as the Maccha period.
The surah was revealed in the Maccha period.
In the Maccha, period, Muslims were
not at their strengths yet.
They were a marginalized, persecuted, oppressed community.
They didn't enjoy freedom of movement.
They did not enjoy freedom of speech.
And if you were not Adam, you suffered untold hardships and
difficulties.
And if you were Adam, you boycotted and marginalized and
removed from the main,
shall we say from the main business of the community,
to the extent that the small fledgling Muslim community was
boycotted,
in the seventh year after the Prophet Alayhi Salatu was Salam
received why?
There was a complete boycott on anyone who was a Muslim.
The Muslims were relegated to a valley outside of Makkah.
There was an instruction given from the leadership in Makkah that
no one is allowed
to trade with them.
No one is allowed to assist them. No one is allowed to give them
any loans, no economic.
No one is allowed to give them any charity. No one is allowed to be
hospitable with them.
They were completely marginalized.
And they were suffering.
That story is a story and that incident is an incident for
another day the extent of the suffering of the believers.
But I'm trying to I'm trying to create a context for the surah.
We have you know, we have a powerful leadership
that manifests itself
economically and socially and religiously in Makkah.
The leadership of the kurush
what they say is law, what they preach is religion.
And when they dictate the terms of the deals, that is the economy
and arrogant people,
people that
is not given to the truth, but is rather given to lies.
Lies that are self serving,
is more preferred by them than truths that will lead them to
Allah subhanho wa taala.
And it is in this light that the surah is revealed.
And that this particular verses are revealed. When Allah subhanahu
wa taala he draws upon many facilities in the Quran to convey
meaning. One of the ways is Allah subhanho wa Taala gives costs us
give stories. And this is the name of the Surah Surah total costs us
stories, because this is how some people learn. Some people need to
hear, they need to learn from experience of others.
It's only when the year the experience of others where they
learn a lesson themselves. It is only when they are able to
visualize what happened that they are able to understand.
So Allah subhanho wa Taala says in the Quran, in accord Hoonah Can I
mean call me Musa karoun was from the people of Musa from the nation
of Musa
of the Musa Stein.
And he was one who basically asserted himself over them.
So he was a man of power and authority
will attain our hormonal canoes, and we gave him treasures,
man in number 30 How will attorno obey laws but it will include
the likes of which
its keys required a group of strong men to be able to lift
so He was a man of immense wealth
is called Allahu como who
it led his people to tell him and to remind him Latifah don't exalt
yourself
don't become happy with your position in Allah Hi now you're
him bull Farheen Verily, Allah does not love those who exalt
themselves
and they go on to advise him what Terry femur Kola and seek that
which Allah subhanaw taala given you all of that, which he had
given you seek via that a DA Hera seek via those things seek the
year after
look beyond what you have been given, because you have been given
this not so that you can revel in the beauty of it also that you can
enjoy it. You have been given this so that you look can look beyond
it.
What are attentional Ciba Kameena dunya and then don't forget in
that wealth, there is a potion for you for this dunya well as income
as an Allah who like and do good to others, like how Allah subhanho
wa Taala had done good to you
while traveling fast facades to fill out and don't go about
creating corruption in the land
in Hola Hola, yo hipbone Mufson
In Verily Allah does not love those who are corrupt
because corruption is something that destroys communities.
Corruption is something that is born out of greed.
It is a self serving disease. And Allah subhanho wa Taala does not
love corruption. Unfortunately, we are more familiar than we need to
be
in this country South Africa
with the idea of corruption
Carla
says Kowloon after receiving this advice
in nama ot to who Allah Inman, he says,
I have been given
these things, all of these things I have been given because of my
knowledge.
How do you think I came to this position? Do you think you did
anything for me?
I got it because of who I am.
Because of what I possess in terms of Afghan
had it not been for my prowess, my genius, my ability to calculate my
ability to make good decisions. I wouldn't have had any of this. It
is all me.
Our lamea Allah and Allah cada Allah coming Coverley Does he not
know that Allah subhanho wa Taala had destroyed those who came
before him mineral Caroni men who are short domain who not just one
person, but generations of people who came before him that were more
stronger than him that possessed more wealth than him.
And this brings us to the topic of our football.
There's a saying
in Arabic from one of the great scholars of vinyasa in LA. He
says, in our turn, you will have our Ma he barely Sahale faculty
welfare candidate.
He says if you want Allah Subhana Allah Allah has blessings to pour
on you. You should truly feel poor,
dependent, and in need of Allah subhanho wa taala.
Feeling poil independent and in need.
This is something that a person who had experienced poverty can
relate to,
for in nama sadhaka, to little Fukuhara for verily charity is
given unto the Fukuhara
is given unto the needy and the poor.
And if Allah subhanho wa Taala is the Possessor of the entire world
and everything upon it, and everything above it, and
everything beneath it. And if he is the one who your suit wire
could deal and if he is the one who gives, and the one who
restricts then Allah subhanho wa Taala is the ultimate Gunny
the ultimate independent being
and then we are all poor.
In relation to Allah subhanho wa Taala we are all 14
and we should know what it means to be effective. Because in nama
sadaqa Toulon Fukumura, for the charity and the good word of Allah
subhanho wa taala, is for those who are poor.
It is important to feel in need of Allah subhanho wa taala.
As opposed to what,
as opposed to feeling independent,
as opposed to living our lives, as if the sum of our success and the
challenges that we have overcome is due to ourselves and our
connections and what we are able to manipulate and dictate and
maneuver in society.
When a feeling of independence starts to cover the heart
the slave
they then loses sight of who and what he really is in relation to
Allah subhanho wa Taala
it is something that creeps up upon the soul
Eve very, very slowly.
The reality is that this Joomla is saying and dictating today is that
we are but poor servants
and that we are extremely weak.
And we are acknowledging our weakness and our need in front of
Allah subhanho wa Taala
we have no choice even with regard to our own creation.
We came into this world, not by our own volition
Hala Khan in San Amin, anak we were created from something which
is leech like
not through our own volition, how then after we have made an
appearance on this earth can we think that we are in charge?
How can we then dream
that our destiny is completely in our hands?
We are helpless.
Human beings tend to forget the weakness.
They tend to forget the weakness especially when
when we have a lot of blessings.
When we are
relatively successful
we are deceived by these blessings.
And this is Shavonne This is the work of shaitan shaitan is not a
straightforward fella.
He is troublesome.
If he wants to achieve one thing, he does it via another means.
He doesn't tell you eat the apple.
He tells you if you eat the apple you will live forever
he didn't tell you eat the apple.
He insinuates he whispers
he creeps up on you. The Quran says mean Hi through LA Tarragona
home from where you don't see them.
So he can use your blessings. The things which Allah subhanaw taala
is favoring you with he can use it as a means to take you away from
Allah subhanho wa Taala
How does he do that? When we start to enjoy this blessings and when
we deem ourselves to have become self sufficient, when we deem
ourselves partners in this quality that is solely for Allah subhanho
wa Taala that is a lovely journey, that is independence and that is
self sufficient. Only Allah subhanho wa Taala is independent
and self sufficient.
We forget our weaknesses when we are strong.
We forget about poverty when we have wealth.
We are weak. In fact, a single bite from a spider can cause us to
die.
Many of us here might be even on medication.
You might be on some medication to thin your blood so that the heart
can work optimally. You might be on some medication to regulate the
sugar.
I know nothing about these things. By the way. I just know you give
people pulls in. Doctors give people pause to maintain a certain
level of health.
And today many of us are on these poles for one reason or the other.
We are fragile.
Some of us if we fall, we break things.
And some of us when we fall we even die.
Forget about being aggressed against and fought with.
But so where does the problem lay that we tend to forget our
weakness in front of Allah subhanho wa Taala because the
person who truly understands that he is faqeer and that he is in
need of Allah subhanho wa Taala the way he's going to live his
life is very different from the way a person who deems himself
independent is going to live his life.
How he approaches Allah subhanho wa Taala is going to be very
different from a person who deems himself independent, how he is
going to approach Allah subhanho wa Taala if at all he or she is
going to approach Allah subhanaw taala
so where does the problem lay?
It lies in my opinion
In failing to understand the following,
and if you forget everything in the Joomla, I just remember this
one line, take it home with you in sha Allah.
That there is a big huge difference between someone who
enjoys something, and another person who owns something. Just
remember that line.
That there is a big difference between someone who enjoys
something, and someone who owns something.
The fact that someone enjoys a blessing that has been given to
him does not mean that this person is the owner of that blessing and
the controller of that blessing.
If Allah subhanho wa Taala had gifted a person with health,
it is anathema. It is a favor from Allah subhanho wa taala. If you
look in the mirror in the morning, and you stand, and back at you,
there's a handsome man looking at you full of vitality, ready to go
tackle the world?
If you see that man.
Then what do you see?
Do you see a person who controls his health and his vitality? Or do
you see a person who has been gifted with health and with
Vitality.
If you control health, then you will never become sick.
if help is yours to own and to control, you will not be in need
of any medication.
You will not have to worry about orthotics, you will not have to
worry about what you eat. Eat Murray rubs in cheesecake and us.
Don't worry, you won't have to worry. Because you are in control
of the health. The reality is we don't control our health.
The reality is it is a NEMA. It is an Amana that has been bestowed by
Allah subhanho wa taala. What about our wealth?
Well, surely, if a man is wealthy, then he owns his wealth, and he
controls his wealth.
to own something, you have to be able to give all of it away
and still have it at the same time.
If you're able to give away all of your wealth, then you truly own
your wealth.
Up until that point in time maybe your wealth owns you.
And your wealth controls you.
It is an AMA from Allah, He increases it and when they in
times of difficulty and constraint, he decreases it.
And Allah subhanaw taala is Allah Zack is the one who will bestow
sustenance.
So if we don't control our health
and if we are not in control of our wealth,
then we are definitely in need of Allah subhanho wa taala.
And coming back to the story of Qarun let me start wrapping up.
Coming back to the story of karoun
this is what happened to Qarun he didn't realize this. If Qarun had
realized this, there's one lesson that this Joomla is giving today.
That what Allah subhanho wa Taala had given you is yours to enjoy.
But Allah subhanho wa Taala is the owner of that thing.
And that whenever you approach Allah subhanho wa Taala you
approach Allah subhanho wa Taala completely as a human being that
is in complete need and dire need of Allah subhanho wa Taala
when a poor person comes to you, a homeless person comes to you. And
let's say Allah subhanaw taala granted you a measure of wealth,
and the poor person tells you please assist me
and you give the poor person a good set of clothes.
You all by the means to put some type of roof over the poor
person's head.
You give him groceries,
you give him some cash so that he can sustain himself.
After you have given this to him, immediately after you have given
him this and set him up. It took you two three days to set him up.
Immediately after you had set him up. He turns his back on you.
And he says look what I achieved
look
Tao what I am able to achieve. I sweet talked my way into a roof
over my head, groceries in my cupboard, money in my pocket
Subhanallah
while Allah Hill method Allah Allah, but for Allah subhanho wa
Taala is the greatest example. Examples don't compare for Allah
is the greatest example. Because Allah subhanaw taala gives us
life. He gives us time, he gives us health. He gives us the ability
to think he gives us the ability to manipulate resources that he
created for us that he put at our disposal. And then immediately
when we are experiencing a measure of comfort, a measure of comfort,
but even much just a measure, then we are prepared to turn our back
on Allah subhanho wa Taala well,
then Fajr Salah seems like a mission for us. And the moment
Allah subhanaw taala tests us again, by taking these things
away, then we want to recognize what poverty is. We shouldn't wait
until we are materially poverty stricken before we want to
recognize that we all put in front of Allah subhanaw taala always
recognize that poverty now. And then Allah subhanaw taala will
give you about a cat in your life.
This is the lesson
let us finish with this verse for her Regina call me if he zenity He
came out upon his people
Qarun
he came out upon them fee zenity
In all the pomp and the glory and the beauty that we know how famous
people like to come out is one famous guy in particular.
I'm not going to mention names. He's an American.
You know how when he comes out how he comes out the whole world must
know is coming out. Reminds me of karoun for her Raja Allah told me
he if he zenity He comes out on his people in all this pomp and
glory and all the show
called Alladhina Yuri Donal Hayato dunya. And those who desire the
dunya those who want the dunya for themselves they say yeah later and
bislama oto Qarun
How I wish that I have been given the same like Qarun How I wish I
was like him in the whole level have been our beam. He's a lucky
man. So the direct translation by the way, he's been given a huge
portion in our level have been out of them. He's a lucky lucky fella.
He's got the world at his feet. If you want his governing by him,
power armies.
We're calling Medina auto line. But those have been given
knowledge.
They say we look home. They say Woe unto you, because this analogy
that you're making to think that you want what He has for you, is
better for you why you like him? What a wrong analogy Are you
making throw Avila hail the reward of Allah subhanho wa Taala is
better. Lehmann and our Angela saleha for the one who believes
and who does good deeds. Wala you will not call her Illa sabe rune
and none will be able to achieve it. None will be able to achieve
this mercy of Allah this reward from Allah subhanaw taala Illa
sabe rune except those people who practice patience in the face of
all this materialism
we must fear for our kids. Let them with Danna in a que la Medina
be here as much I mean whom don't extend your eyes. Don't extend
your eyes Ilana maternelle OBE to that which we have given to them
of the dunya don't make that the object of your success.
So behind Allah, it is other than hieratic dunya it is but just the
goods of this worldly life. It is but just this goods of this stage,
my brothers and if your sisters my sisters, it is but the stage
we live
and we die, or we taste death
and we live
the roof lives.
There is an afterlife
the soul has in met was revealed in Makkah for 10 years. The Quran
is filled with verses that just speaks about the afterlife
when you know to
hearin one other car, for the true visionary.
For the person that really understands his purpose is the
person who understands that he is working to profit on that day.
When the shares and the dividends will be paid,
it will be a lasting, a lasting reward that Allah subhanaw taala
give us the understanding, we make dua that Allah subhanaw taala
grant grants for Judge,
* Marc Bolan, hajima guru
and for those of us who have not yet went on Hajj, we know these
days are the days that you are feeling very, very hot so and why
is it Allah subhanaw taala must grant you to perform the hajj.
Novita Creek is out.
Shavon and Shafiq
is as been blessed with the honor of performing hajj Alhamdulillah.
They ask your forgiveness for when they are for any wrong that they
might have said or done and the request that we make to either
Allah subhanaw taala increases the Eman and Toccoa and solver and
grant them the health and the strength to fulfill their
obligations
and that Allah reward them with a hygiene Maqbool and a hijab route
they will be departing on the eighth of August they will be
