welcome to each and every single one of you wherever you might be.
And we remember especially in this trying time that we are living in,
we remember those who are ill,
that Allah subhanaw taala grant them Shiva and those of our
community who have passed away, Allah subhanaw taala grant him
genital filters. I mean, I mean, you're behind me.
You want to see me last week.
We're speaking about a very special verse sort of early Imran
verse on the eternal burner, learn to ZIL koombana by the is had a
tenant well habla Milligan, karma in Antigua herb. So the colada AVI
and we looked at the context of the idea
that this idea which is a dua is being made by who.
It's being made by a Rossi, Hona filler alum.
Songs, proclamations in verse number seven of swords Ali Imran
were Rossi Hona, salam, those who are firmly established in
knowledge.
And we know that
when Allah subhanaw taala speaks about or lemma, or those firmly
established in knowledge, he's speaking about those servants of
his
who are the most mindful
of him in their daily lives.
And that's why nobody can claim to be an island.
In terms of this definition,
that we are speaking about.
In fact, Sidamo segment Zarema and while info j, the person who
claims to be an island knows nothing.
And the IRA limb, which is the singular of all lemma, that I'm
speaking about, is that which Allah subhanaw taala refers to
when he says in sha Allah mean Eva de Bella or them that you
mentioned last week, also Natalia says that
indeed those who are
most fearful
and of course fear here is fear in terms of fearing the punishment of
Allah.
And having hope in a forgiveness and reward from Allah remember, so
Mohammed has early or hammer Allah Allah what does he say? He says,
me? No bueno Kofi Raja, the believer is in between fear and
hope or too much fear otherwise, they will despair and not too much
hope otherwise they will become laksa days ago. Careless and
heedless and reckless will either be we secretly do not want $1 from
them.
So the video is, is balanced.
In actual fact, we think about Islam Islam is the middle way.
Islam is the just balance. Islam is the equilibrium.
That's why our beloved prophet Sallallahu sallam said, he said,
fame mood also to the best of conditions of those there are
those that are in the middle. So there are lemma that was one that
Allah speaking about in that verse, are those that through the
fear of his punishment,
and the hope in His forgiveness and His reward. There are the most
mindful of Allah subhanaw taala is creation after the Gambia. While
mousseline after the prophets and messengers of Allah subhanaw taala
those that have been endowed with knowledge we speak knowledge about
Allah knowledge about his, his messenger SallAllahu wasallam
knowledge about the deen
knowledge which brings
Have you ever closer to Allah subhanaw taala. And because of
that knowledge, they are more mindful of Allah, they are more
conscious of Allah in everything they do. In everything they say,
everywhere they go each and every single day. And only almost one to
Allah knows who these are never nobody can claim to be of the sin
to be of this category.
Well let us full circle, who our alum will be money taka Allah
subhanaw taala says don't praise yourself, don't put yourselves in
any category. Allah He is more knowledgeable, who is the one that
is more conscious and mindful of him. So putting it into context,
this dua that is being made is being made by the pious by the
most pious among us wanted to have this creation. And what is the dua
that they're asking Allah, they're asking Allah to Zim Cubana, O
Allah don't cause our hearts to deviate by the entire data after
you have rightly guided them, what habla them and let them Kurama and
help us with Your mercy. In the cantle Wahab Indeed you are the
only helper Gela Feola
nobody can help us not in the heavens or on Earth, except by the
will of Allah subhanaw taala that's why we say Allah is the
only outcome
whether it is direct help, if Allah subhanaw taala gave, for
example,
to many of his prophets and messengers and of his pious
service, as in the case of the new Halle Salah for the Arab animus,
Ruben fantasise said Oh my Lord, I am overcome so help me so for
Dallas on a dialysis and use his fellow decayed that immediately
was one Italian opened for Fontana Ebola. So it'd be in one home if
we opened up the doors of the heavens and brought great
torrential rain, speaking about a to Fern, the great flood of Wu Han
insulin.
And there many of the examples of them
or indirectly,
in the sense where Allah subhanaw taala would create a sub
in terms of somebody helping us, this is very important in terms of
Tawheed that if you ask somebody for help
another human being on this earth,
it must be done with a card that that person cannot help, cannot
benefit cannot do anything good or bad, except by the will and by the
power of Allah subhanaw taala.
And that's why when anybody does provide in inverted commas, help
or assistance to us, the first acknowledgement that must be made
is the acknowledgement of all praise and thanks is due solely to
Allah.
And then of course we thank the person as well man, let me assure
the nurse, let me ask you realize the prophets of Allah Salam, he
who does not think people doesn't think Allah subhanahu wa,
but just wanted to make that point that indeed Allah He is in Tel
Wahab in Africa until Wahab at the end of the DUA. Robina love to see
Kuruvilla Allah don't cause our hearts to deviate
by the entire data after you have rightly guided them.
While humble Linna build into charisma and help us with Your
mercy in Africa into sounds like repetition in Africa indeed you
you in the cup cup is you enter is you in enter. But when there's a
repetition like this, it's for a specific reason.
And what is that reason? It's called hustle
Ha, saw raw hustle, hustle. You know, actual fact, the word he saw
is the word of Arabic language that's used in the times gone by
when they will walled cities and an army would surround that city.
They would say that there is a Hisar
there is a siege that has been that has been laid to that city.
So a siege would restrict movement in or out of that city.
Likewise,
when our last one autolysis in Naka Anta indeed you you what does
it mean? It restricts the meaning that you not you and someone else,
no, you and you alone in occur until we're hurt. Indeed, You and
You alone are the only helper. This is so important in terms of
how to hate in terms of Arcada in terms of our faith in terms of our
belief
that we must believe that indeed there is only one go hate one.

So who's this
group of people that are making this very special dua it is the
most pious of Allah servants.
What are they asking Allah? Have Allah keep us on the straight path
as we ask Allah 17 times a day in Surah Fatiha Suraj Longstocking.
That's what it literally means. Oh Allah keep us keep us on the
straight path because we don't know.

are going to be tomorrow. Look how things are changing in this world.

the lack of Attica rude What did the Prophet say Salah Salem to to
observe say to him our brother renew the boat for the ocean is
deep
we'll see the fishermen you know always maintaining their boats
making sure that there's no cracks or you know, or any
compromising of the structural integrity of the boat why because
if they're out there on the ocean, ocean is deep. If they spring a
leak and the boat fills with water the boat is gonna sink and
everybody's gonna drown.
So the Prophet said to a brother said to him gently this subpoena
renewed all the time. And this is what our good deeds
can think of. In the law. Here I burden fatahna Tala could dunya

We spoke about this poem of the day that Oliver Manolio mentioned
in his reorder slightly in the beginning, that it did follow the
subway service.
They have divorced themselves from this world. And they have feared
the trials and tribulations the words they've removed the dunya
from their hearts
when they looked at this world, and they realize that this world
is no permanent dwelling place for them. They turned from their
perspective they turned the whole world into a deep ocean and they
use the good deeds as the boat of salvation. That would take them
safely to the other side of the ocean. Hello. So in light of the
Hadith gently does Safina renew the boat that is as the Prophet
said another Hadith he said bad you know Bill AMA and make haste
in doing good deeds, fiction and cockatoo Leyland Muslim. Why?
Because there are trials and tribulations coming like a dark
night. And it's those good deeds that is going to serve as our boat
of salvation that is going to take us safely to the other side of the
ocean
of the trials and the tribulations of the studio.
And then he said what I said is Zed and take a long enough
provision
take a long enough provision, you know because action, action
without consciousness
What is it worth in the eyes of Allah subhanaw taala for the
minute Alladhina Hoovy Salah team Hershey
On, they are successful. The believers who are mindful in the
Salah, Salah has an action, but that action requires the rule, the
soul of that action is the consciousness of Allah subhanaw
taala in that action.
And so having action, like having a boat, but going out into the
ocean without any provision, you're going to starve on the
boat.
We're going to, we're going to die of thirst, going to die of hunger.
So we need we need provision. And the provision of, of the boat
provision of the boat is, as we call it in South Africa, Park
costs, you know,
what, if you like to eat on the road, but we're talking about
spiritual provision here. So if the action, if the action is the
metaphor,
or sorry, the boat is the metaphor of the action,
then the provision that we require on the boat is the metaphor for
the consciousness that is required in that action? And what is the
best provision, but as a word who, in the hydrazide Toccoa and gather
up the provision and did the best provision is Allah consciousness?
Minnesota Abu Dhabi, he said, he said, what he said Iman, and be
sincere what you're doing, you know, with your action and your
taqwa your consciousness.
Be sincere. Why? In the Nikita Basu? Because Allah subhanaw taala
can see straight into your heart
will hopefully fill habla and, you know, don't overload the boat.
I'm referring every time to, you know, to this hadith, or
Coffeeville handler, the Prophet said, he said lighten the burden,
lighten the burden, the burden of sin, find the lack of better code,
why otherwise
the obstacles will be too difficult to get off if you are on
the road and you have a heavy burden on your back. And if some
obstacle comes in the road, it's going to be more than what the hit
the heavier the burden on your back the more difficult it's going
to be to get over that obstacle. Likewise, if we take the metaphor
of the boat, and if you overload the boat or swim, it's gonna sink
or walk off the field hemella You know so in other words, stay away
from haram
stay away from sin, you know, otherwise, it's going to be too
heavy to get over the burdens of and it's going to be too too heavy
to get over the obstacles on the road of life. So

I have learned me learning karma and help us with Your mercy in the
country we have indeed you and you alone are the only helper your
Allah shall have your order.
Now, today I want us to delve a little bit deeper
in to the concern that you and I started with myself
the concern that we need to have about the condition of our hearts
and about keeping that heart sound keeping that heart pure. And
always being mindful as to how quickly that Hopkinton national

We ended last week's talk in fact with the service
I was one of dialysis the day when

or Lebanon, no children will be of any benefit for anyone, except for
the one that comes to Allah with a sound, pure pot.
So this is a priority number one, keeping this hot Pierre, remember
the heart is the is the window to the soul. Artist is the physical
heart. This is the connection
between our physical and our spiritual.
And I'm speak about the physical heart because the prophecies are
not solid. He said, Allah in the field, just the Buddha Hall is in
the
body, it is a piece of flesh. So he's referring to the physical
heart.
He does all have solid gesture to cool.
If that piece of flesh is good and pure,
in the whole body, we could appear from a physical aspect and from a
spiritual aspect.
And none of us know how the spiritual heart resides within the
physical heart. And how that spiritual heart
connects with the soul. Allah Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah
subhanaw taala knows that we do not know that's why you know, the
soul is something that is truly, even though each and every single
one of us has a soul. And in fact, we are our souls. We are not our
bodies, yet we cannot even describe it.
We don't even know how it exists.
We don't even know what form it takes. What it's made up of what's
its essence, is a Lula Canyon Road, put in a row from an
umbrella be warmer at two minutes earlier. Excellent. It's very
humbling that we are ourselves if you don't even know ourselves.
Because that was one of the policies they asked you about the
soul of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam said that it's from the
command of my Lord, and you have not been given of knowledge except
a little bit.
pretty humbling. You don't even know ourselves, you don't even
know ourselves.
So,
the heart
if the heart is good, the body is good.
From a physical from a physiological aspect, you know, if
the heart dies, the body is dead, the person's dead, the soul leaves
the body. It has solid solid halogens you can look at the
faceted facilities
and from a spiritual aspect as well. If the heart is good,
spiritual heart, then the words will be good defaults will be
good, the actions will be good. And if the heart is bad, and the
thoughts will be bad, the words will be bad the actions will be
bad.
That's why
when
we speak about what Allah looks at,
with regards to as His servants
What is Allah look at?
What is the target of Allah's divine gaze?
When he looks at his servants? Is it the color of our skin?
Now however, like what they love,
so much talk about racism at the moment
that
you know tomato must mean this after.
After so many years
of discrimination, and marginalization and oppression
and slavery.
This is something that was because of the heart because the heart is
not right.
But the color of our skins, something
looks at
the texture of our hair, the shape of our noses.
How much money we've got in our pockets.
Call us Allah Allah Allah wa salam in Allahu Allah younger Illa illa
Allah.
Allah does not look at your phone, nor does he look at your wealth
in Allah Allah Allah, Allah suvery Coppola, Illa Malika, listen, look
at your form, by Allah created us, Allah created all the different
colors and all the different you know,
I mean, it was somewhat even work till fo a significant one vertical
and obvious signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth and
the differing of the colors of your skin and in the languages of
your tongues.
So I just want to tell you, he's the creator of all but
that
variety
that Allah subhanaw taala has created.
In fact, variety, variety points is a variety in production.
points to the singularity of the producer.
A tunnel, a tunnel,
fill and work,
a tunnel work phocoena
yet due to Allah to Sonya, in a variety in production points to
the singularity of, of the producer. We're supposed to marvel
at each other's you know, different colors and different
forms and shapes
because this points to the sort of the signs of the Creator something
that should be celebrated, which I know kosher open Wakaba Illa you
to Arnulfo, I've made you to different nations and tribes that
you can recognize one another.
But it doesn't concern Allah.
What's the color of our skin? What's the texture of our hair?
What's the shape of our noses? Notice it concern Allah, you know,
with regards to how wealthy we are or how poor we are, except in
terms of fulfilling the responsibility of having wealth.
You know, it's it's
for the luminaria they said, Be careful what you wish for the
person that wishes for a lot of wealth is just wishing for a long
court case in front of Allah on the day of yomo keyamo. Well, my
look when nfts After will fever and factor because in the day of
human Alinsky, to ask us your money, where did you get it from?
And how did you spend it?
From that degree?
So going back to the Hadith did Allah doesn't look at your phone,
nor does he look at your wealth, but he looks at your hearts and
your actions, why the hearts first, just like the Prophet said,
if the heart is right, the thoughts the words actions will be
right. His art is bad, the thoughts the words the actions
will be bad. So Allah does not look at our fault, nor does he
look at out, nor does he look at our wealth, but he looks at our
hearts and he looks at our actions. So the condition of this
heart, you know, this heart which is so prone to deviating from the
Path of Allah so prone to being corrupted by the carnal desires of
the body, the spiritual heart, which is the only thing that is
going to benefit us the condition they have, that is going to
benefit us and if you're more Chioma, yo Milan for Oman Bella
balloon 11 at Allah Alban Salim the day when wealth and children
will be of no benefit to anyone except for the one that comes to
Allah with a sound heart with a pure heart.
So, this is something that we should be pondering over every
day. This is something we should be making more aka.
We should be surveilling the words surveillance,
there is everywhere you go the surveillance cameras, you know, we
should be our own cameras. You know, our consciousness should be
the surveilling camera of our hearts.
Something which we need to do every day St. Thomas said he said
has SIBO fossa calm Kabbalah and Taha Cebu was, you know, ama
LUCAM, Cobra and Tucson, he said,
take account of yourself before you are taking account of
who's ourselves or souls, you know, and what's the call, what's
the core of our soul, you know, is our hearts which is the which is
the the window, the window of the physical heart of the physical
body, that's the connection is the heart. So he says, take account of
yourselves
surveil your hearts
before you are taking account of on the day of your mercury and
moon because then it's too late.
And the way your actions you see again, the heart takes priority
over the actions the heart is good to actions will be good.
You know so, some people are so concerned with the physical
attributes of the actions
that they completely neglect the spiritual condition of their
heart. So mashallah you know, and it's something we should all
strive for for excellence in our you know rituals in our Salah and
paying our mazurka fasting
excuse me of Ramadan and going on Hajj anomala and do whatever else
we we do in Islam.
But
if we're not going to correct our hearts other words, we're going to
be making salah but you're still lying and cheating and defrauding.
Then we're going to be able Phyllis. My name is Phyllis.
The Prophet asked us to companions one day, they said y'all so Allah

penniless person is the one who has no money and no material
possessions. He said love. He said the roofless the penniless person
is the one who comes to the piano was Salah with Zakka we'll see
with all these actions, but they have dishonored this one, and
they've struck this one and they've stolen
From this one, and they have shed the blood of that one, and then
that victim we brought forward and then Allah subhanaw taala will put
the, the judgment process, Allah subhanaw taala will commence it.
And what will happen is that victim was in take of the
perpetrators good deeds, and if all the good deeds of the
perpetrator are used up, no matter how much salah they made no much
no matter how much Xikar they paid, no matter how many months of
fasting they did, no matter how many times they went to Hajj, and
Amara,
and all of those good deeds are used up, then the perpetrator will
then have to take up the victims bad deeds, until eventually they
are dragged on their faces to the five Johanna Malaya de la

obligatory on them. So bring it to things.
And after that, well Mozilla have
filled the extra optional in the similar things, you know, we do as
much as we can, but we must not let priority number one, the
effect of those actions on our hearts. Otherwise, what are those
actions with a hotspot speak, purified
especially for one another.
You know, atrophy purified of of greed and envy and hatred and
Renko
and all these other spiritual ailments that plague the hearts of
men today.
So, as we make this dua,
I want you to continue because there's so much that we can speak
about this topic.
You know about
ever being too sure of ourselves and making it a priority to keep
to purify our hearts to keep them pure, to purify our hearts and to
to keep them pure. Yeah.
One of the Hadith that we use at the end of last week's talk, and
you know, I want you to think about it again, Mr. Albee curry
shuttin, the likeness of the heart is like a feather be or didn't
fall out in the open space.
Next time, you know, maybe go for a walk in the park or whatever,
take a feather with you. Especially when the wind when the
wind is blowing, go to the park and the wind is blowing take a
feather and throw the feather up in the air. And the thing of this
hadith, the likeness of the heart is the likeness of a feather in an

Inshallah, I said to myself today, we are
going to keep this talk show a little bit shorter.
And
that is my message firstly, for myself, and for everybody out
there. Let us surveil our hearts let us every night before we go to
sleep. Let us make more aka let's look at that heart. And if we have
done any good for the day, say Alhamdulillah or praise and thanks
to solely to Allah. And if we have done any bad for the day, if we
have
disobeyed Allah subhanaw taala. Or we have even heard somebody will
ever believe that we ask Allah subhanaw taala for forgiveness and
we need to ask that person that prefer also for forgiveness. And
each and every single day. We prepare for our ultimate meeting
with Allah subhanaw taala on the day of your local Yama when we
will be gathered under the flag of our beloved Prophet Muhammad Salah
