I want to be you know Maulana Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi

Marine. We continue our theme Layali Temkin and third well heck

Mohammed Al Quran Al Karim nights of empowerment, farewells and

wisdom from the Glorious Quran.

In an informative explanatory verse, which you heard tonight at

the beginning of Surah, Anfal, Allah describes qualities of a

believer.

And he says in the middle

to Kerala, which he looked cooler boom, were either too late early

to who's the Imana

behemoth of a cologne and Lavina Ukri Munna Salah AMI Mara zakenna

home Yong Hoon. Believers indeed are those who and Allah is

mentioned, feel a vibration in their hearts. And when they hear

the verses of Allah being recited, they find the faith strengthened.

And they put the trust in Allah. They are those who established

prayer and are generous with that which Allah has provided for them.

Here the Quran makes reference to the sign of true believers. We

know the haka.

And he includes six key points. He says, They are those who remember

Allah. And that remembrance has a spiritual impact upon them. The

vicar has a spiritual impact upon them.

Then the reading of the Quran that tilava It has

an effect on them.

Then Tawakkol there is a dependence on the pot on Allah

subhanho wa taala. And then there is pursuance of spiritual and

moral welfare, through the establishment of the prayer, the

Salah, and there is a pursuance of social economic welfare through

infarct, or sadaqa was Osaka through charity.

So we see here that believers are described as those constantly

conscious of Allah.

And it is this kind of consciousness. That is the essence

of what we call excellence in the hola catabolic sang Allah cliche.

Allah has prescribed excellence in everything we do, or goodness in

everything we do. And this is also further evident in the hadith of

Rasul Allah Allah wa salam, where he defined the axon is endowed

with the luck and Nicotra final into Contura HuFa into who you

are, York is worshipping Allah, Hassan is worshiping Allah, as if

you are witnessing him, for though you do not see him. He's ever

observant of you. So here we see God consciousness, coupled with

the practical expression of righteousness. The first point, if

of these six points in the description of what we call the

true believers, is regarding in reference to the whole idea in the

notion of vicar

and your vicar, remembrance of Allah. They are over 150

references in the Quran, directly pertaining to the notion of vicar

to remember Allah to mention Allah to invoke Allah to call upon

Allah. The Quran in fact itself is referred to as a lickin in newness

Zelina liqueur. The Quran itself is called a vicar and furthermore

will occur the yes sir angle Quran Allah Vikram for helping him with

the Quran. We have made this Quran this reminder, an easy source of

remembrance, remembering Allah remembering your duty and your

responsibility.

But even our prayer, it in itself is a manifestation of victory. As

Allah says, our claim is solid and the decree established prayer for

my for my remembrance.

But in doing so, we also realize that though going through the

rituals of prayer,

there is an important component that must be present. And that is

the remembrance of Allah. Because not remembering Allah in the

performance of your Ibadah undermines the very essence of

their eBUY itself. And that's why it's almost deemed hypocritical.

In Munna Filipina you hold your own hola hola. Whoa, hold your own

way the Kamui la sala de como Salah Euro owners who Allah the

Quran, Allah, Allah kalila those who are hypocritical, try to

deceive the Almighty, but actually deceive themselves for when they

stand to pray. They do so in order to be noticed by people. But

regarding the remembrance of Allah, they hardly remember him

much

Then there is a conditional statement also in the Quran

regarding vicar. We Allah says fifth Rooney of Quran, remember

me, and I shall remember you.

So when you speak of this remembrance in this dhikr Of

course, there are many forms, it doesn't have to be only in the

form of prayer, or only in the form of repeating the names of

Allah. Rather, we realize that there are many dimensions to the

Quran, to pronounce words, reflecting the attributes, the

glory, the message, the message and the Majesty of Allah. It's a

form of vicar. And that's the color by the tongue, then to

understand and reflect on Allah's majesty, just by looking at the

creation in the Halacha sama allottee what are the what the

laughing lady were not the ayat in the Bob Avena years Quran Allah,

they look at the beauty, the sunset, the sunrise, the ocean,

the flowers, and they remember, is a creative behind this. That's a

victory through the appreciation of creation. And both of these

modes of remembrance are thicker, are desirable, and reinforce our

acknowledgement of the Divine.

So on the one hand, conscious oral repetition and graves the words

into our hearts, while understanding and reflecting upon

the creation of the Divine, brings us closer to appreciation of the

Divine.

All forms of vicar help us to develop and reinforce our

relationship with our Creator. Modeling agility and Rumi put it

very beautifully. He said frickley Kunta Awara he has a thicker hood.

The secret Quinta Krieger that just said Vic Regatta, fifth grade

to Bala Khaled. He said in a Persian, peace, meditate until you

become free of thoughts of yourself. Because sometimes we're

so engaged about ourselves, our business, we're not thinking we're

not focusing on the divine. So he says meditate until you become

free of all thoughts, even of yourself. Remember Allah in such a

way that your entire being becomes thicker,

such thicker, that even your consciousness itself becomes

elevated.

Three points for us for consideration here tonight. One,

in today's troubled world, we are in see we are in search of what

the Quran refers to. In fact certain times in the Quran, Allah

refer to the concept of it Milan,

we are in search of Milan. What is it we learn comes? solidity,

peacefulness, tranquility, a state of composure of balance of

equanimity,

that feeling of security, of peace of mind, of being at ease with

oneself, a state, which is so sought after, yet rarely

experienced by us, in this day and age, that pleasant and that noble

set with Milan, which is attained, the Quran says through the

remembrance of Allah, Allah be the Karela de Tata in Newell, Kulu.

Surely by the Grace of Allah, will you find the contentment of the

heart? Second point,

Maulana Rumi mentioned and suggested do not only make liquor

be thicker, what is the imply, if people see you that assaulted a

true believer, when people see him or her, they are reminded of

Allah, your truthfulness, your generosity, your love, your

compassion. So by looking at you that only you're making liquor,

your very being can then be a source of remembrance, and a

source of reminder of Allah. Your very presence can be a vicar and

thirdly,

responding to the concern I mentioned about the one verse, the

competitive statement or we Allah says, for the good Rooney of good.

The question is, if Allah remembers me, when I remember him,

does he remember me when I don't remember him?

This question was posed by two of the prophets that we dealt with

Ali salaam, and to be an ISA, either he said, and Allah,

according to some Hadith responded to them, when they express concern

or Allah will remember you you remember us? What if we don't

remember you? Do you still remember us? Allah responded in

Neela and Sammy and Sani for cave and Sammy of Qurani I don't forget

those who forget me. How will I forget those who remember me?

Subhan Allah, but hamdulillah whether Illa Allah, Allahu Akbar,

Allahu La Quwata illa Billahi shukran salaam aleikum wa

rahmatullah.
