existence in the universe begins
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:44
			with Iran and intended desire.
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:50
			In fact, Allah subhanho wa Taala
says in Surah Yaseen in nama Umrah
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:53
			who either are or the Cheyenne, a
year old Allah who can pay
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:59
			for he says Be and it is, there is
a wool for that thing to happen.
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:02
			And therefore, we say erotica,
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:08
			or the desire is activated by a
creative power, the creative power
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			of Nia or the power of intention.
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:15
			And Nia is a directed impulse,
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:20
			a directed impulse of
consciousness or a desire of the
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:26
			heart, or an aspiration of the
soul that motivates us to do
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:27
			whatever we do.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:36
			Nia is a significant means whereby
worthiness of inaction is valued
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:41
			and judged. And of course, Allah
is the ultimate judge. But the
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:45
			notion of Nia and the motivation
and the desire why we do what we
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:49
			do, for example, Allah subhanho wa
Taala says, you are keen to come
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:50
			be Marchesa.
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:56
			Allah takes you to task for what
your hearts have conceived in
		
00:01:56 --> 00:02:00
			earnestness, what you really want
in your heart, Allah looks at
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:04
			that. And therefore it also said,
Allahu alayhi wa sallam, in the
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:08
			most famous saying, documented in
the Sahih Muslim. In the Malama
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:13
			lupini yard. We're in nama.
Luckily, man, our actions are by
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:17
			intentions, and for each one,
according to what he or she
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:18
			intended.
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:24
			So we say, as your intention is,
so is your action.
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:30
			As your intention is, so is your
action. So let's evaluate that.
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:36
			One is you can have a bad
intention for a bad action. You
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:41
			can have bad intention for a bad
direction. And this is never
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:44
			acceptable in Islam. It's
abhorrent, and in fact punishable.
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:46
			Example of that.
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:52
			Hadith in Sahih al Bukhari sahih
al Bukhari and by Imam Muslim
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:57

			Collison, Allahu alayhi wa early

Sahibi the soul was said to some
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:21
			people, when two Muslims fight,
intending to kill one another,
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:23
			both of them are in the fire.
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:28
			So the question as Yara should
Allah we understand the one who
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:32
			wants to kill is in the fire. But
why the Muslim who got killed, he
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:36
			said because he was desirous,
intending to kill the other.
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:38
			This makes us realize
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:44
			how important it is that you
cannot have a bad intention and a
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:48
			bad action and accept it to be
acceptable to Allah. bad
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:53
			intention. Bad action is never
acceptable, then you have bad
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:58
			intention. For a good action. This
can be very deceptive. For
		
00:03:58 --> 00:03:58
			example,
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:03
			we know that true belief and true
or Ibadah is done with sincerity.
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:07
			For example, if you take prayer,
we need to know whatever we do,
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:11
			but the utterance of the mouth we
can say lie in Allah, but it needs
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:15
			to come from the heart. Whether we
pray ritually up in downs one
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:18
			thing may Allah accept from us,
but coming from the heart is
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:22
			something else. Last Allah in
Labradoodle club, there's no Salah
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:27
			without the presence of the heart.
It's very important. Since you

			carnation Namazi Adana Yachty deal
dukkha and apartheid a bar that
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:37
			killed a rollup said, just bowing
your head doesn't make it sujood
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:40
			doesn't make it a bother your
heart is to be pleasant for it to
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:45
			be in a bother. So it needs to be
something that manifests or
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:49
			emanates from our Wirkkala Phil
was at the coal as from hospital
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:53
			bossley said emanating from the
heart. In other words, the
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:57
			individual's heart and attitude.
There's goodness emanating from
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			it, motivating the person to
believe
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:04
			Lin's are to goodness, and
therefore in the Quran, the notion
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:09
			of unconscious worshipping or
worshiping with the aim of
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:13
			impressing other people. This is
condemned. In other words, you
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:17
			have a bad intention. I want to
show off. I want people to notice,
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:20
			but I'm doing a good deed. I'm
pretty clear so everyone can
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:23
			imagine how good I lead. Why give
charity deliberately in front of
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:27
			other people. Nothing wrong with
giving in public, but with the
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:31
			idea that people will notice me
all makes Allah so everyone knows
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:34
			and then when you do that, the
action is good, but the intention
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:38
			is bad. And that's why Allah
reprimands even in the Quran for
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:42
			where you will mousseline and
Nadine Oman, Salah Ahimsa Hoon
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:43
			Alladhina, whom you
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:47
			want to those who are making
salah, but those aren't making
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:51
			salah, Shame on those who are
making Salah will make Salah to be
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:55
			seen by people. But regarding the
social consciousness really
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:58
			supposed to help the neighbors and
those around them. They hardly do
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:03
			that in another verse about the
munaf green.com Willis talathi,
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:07
			calm Musala Euro all in us, what
do I include? Hola, hola. kalila,
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:12
			the hypocrisy stand in prayer,
very listlessly, for the stand to
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:13
			be noticed by people.
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:17
			But regarding the remembrance of
Allah, which is the essence of
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:20
			prayer, they hardly remember him
much. This is directly from the
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:25
			Quran. So it's very important to
realize, here you have a good
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:29
			action, but the intention was to
show rather than to pray, then you
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:30
			have
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:33
			good intention for a bad action.
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:38
			And this is how many of us
rationalize our wrongs. I mean,
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:40
			well, for example,
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:44
			you can say, I'm going to rob the
bank, in sha Allah,
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:47
			say Bismillah before you say it.
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:52
			And then if I robbed the bank, I
intend to donate half of the
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:56
			money, which I still have to the
mosque. I don't see what the other
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:59
			half but half I'll give to the
mosque. You see, you can have a
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:03
			good intention for the bad action,
and see, but Allah says, Allah
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:06
			judges you by your intention, it
doesn't work like that, in
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:12
			Albania, is another Hadith in our
team. Actions are also judged by
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:17
			the consequences. So a good
intention for a bad thing does not
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:21
			make the bad thing good, because
the intention may be seemingly
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:27
			good, but not really good. The
fourth one, good intention for a
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:31
			good action. This is the
prescribed combination for all our
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:33
			activity as people of iman.
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:40
			And if the intention is sincere,
and the action is beneficial, then
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:46
			indeed, that counts as a virtuous
deed as the army who saw the good
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:52
			deeds, but so significant and so
impactful is the good intention
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:57
			that precedes a good action. So
impactful is the good intention
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:00
			that precedes a good action.
Hadith Rasul Allah Allah wa
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:04
			sallam, both in Sahih al Bukhari
and Sahih Muslim Rasul Allah said,
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:08
			from an Hammarby has nothing for
them Yamaha cutterbar, Allah in
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:12
			the who has an AKA Milla that even
if you intend to do something
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:16
			good, but you couldn't do it for
some reason, Allah will reward you
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:20
			because of your intention. That's
a good intention for a good
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:25
			action. The reason we do what we
do, therefore, is fundamentally
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:29
			significant. The reason we do what
we do is fundamentally
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:33
			significant. And it's important
for us to live up to the standard
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:37
			of Rasulullah and the guideline of
Rasulullah as documented in the
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:40
			Muslim of Imam Muhammad in a
humble way, there are social
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:45
			Allahu alayhi wa alayhi wa sallam
said, Africa when a class Allahu
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:49
			Allah Hulan Eman was your Allah
Kalba who Salima while he sang and
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:52
			saw the talk when asked to whom
Allah in Mohali KATUSA Akima.
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:57
			Successful indeed are those who by
the Grace of Allah are sincere in
		
00:08:57 --> 00:09:01
			faith, whose hearts are pure in
the intention, whose tongues are
		
00:09:01 --> 00:09:07
			truthful in speech, who have inner
contentment and whose character is
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:08
			upright.
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:15
			Let us realize the following one,
a conscientious person of faith is
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:20
			expected to harbor good
intentions, to have a clean heart
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:23
			to have a positive attitude to
have an endearing personality,
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:30
			while manifesting exemplary
behavior to in essence, purity of
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:35
			intention supersedes our two
actions, because they could be
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:40
			some show or some degree of
ostentation, in an outward action,
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:45
			outward action. Therefore, I'm a
loose Alia or righteous deed is
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:50
			always good intention for a good
action. And thirdly,
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:58
			we should introspect and check on
why we do what we do. For that
		
00:09:58 --> 00:10:00
			determines that too.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:05
			Quality and the value of our
actions Akula Kalia the first step
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:08
			for Allah wa salam aleikum wa
rahmatullah
