			spinomenal him hamdulillah salat wa salam ala rasulillah Allah Allah He was sahbihi wa salaam
aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakatu. Baraka lofi. Come, everyone with a couple of llaman. Now amin
comes out Hello, Mr. Amin, brothers and sisters in Islam, Allah subhanho wa Taala and says in the
final Testament in his divine revelation,
		

			he says
		

			or ello
		

			or
		

			Taco
		

			Bell aka
		

			meanness, some
		

			evil
		

			or lacking get the Boo
		

			Bhima can we act Cebu de la la la Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah says, After telling us of
		

			the followers of all the different prophets that Allah subhanho wa Taala
		

			blessed with prophets being sent to them, and after telling us how they disobeyed their prophets,
and after telling us how Allah subhanho wa Taala destroyed them, because of their disobedience,
Allah subhanho wa Taala problem is that he will gll Allah helewka her, he says, If only the people
of the cities of the villages of those places, and who believed what they believed, and they were
God, conscious of Allah, meaning they were upon the laws shared to them by their messengers.
		

			Allow him we would have opened up upon them Baraka blessings, Minnesota, he will out from the
heavens and from the ground, rain would have fallen, crops would have grown.
		

			They would have been protected from illnesses and harm. They would have been blessed with good
health and children and, and wealth and financial standing and material well being.
		

			If only they were pious and righteous and stayed away from sin, Allah says, Well, I can cut the bow
but they chose to deny the messengers. They chose to turn away from the guidance of the messenger
for I have now homeless we snatched them we took them we mechanic spoon because of the actions
because of their actions, brothers and sisters in Islam. Yes, it is. Our deeds brothers and sisters
in Islam. It is our deeds yesterday we spoke about entering to gender being based on the mercy of
Allah, but the deeds are a means of attaining that mercy.
		

			And today, we learn Subhana Allah, how sins are a means of gaining the anger of Allah subhanho wa
Taala and his punishment, both in this world and the next.
		

			You know, we all see what's happening around us in the world today.
		

			We all see what's happening around us, in our cities, and then in our communities, and then in our
neighborhood, and then even in our own homes, brothers and sisters in Islam, parents writing,
		

			seeking guidance with regards to the children, spouses seeking guidance with regards to each other.
Right.
		

			I'm not trying to paint a gloomy picture.
		

			But many can testify to the fact that there's a lot in the world that falls under the category of
depression.
		

			Not that we should be depressed because Allah subhanho wa Taala he loves alpha and he loves people
who have who have hope.
		

			But that doesn't mean we shouldn't call the situation for what it is. There's many situations that
fall under the category of depression. They are depressive situations, and they're not if they're
not, you know, happiness is not going to come about because of them.
		

			And brothers and sisters, it goes back to since it goes back to since it is sins that changes
		

			things it is sins that converts riches to poverty, sins that converts happiness to depression, it
sins that converts success, to failure. It sins that keeps the mercy of Allah subhanho wa Taala at a
distance and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would seek forgiveness from Allah subhanho wa
Taala in a gathering in a sitting 100 times La ilaha illa Allah right? We're not talking about the
whole day we're talking about a sitting How many times do we turn to Allah and seek is the father
sincerely I'm not talking about just think it's not gonna last for the last that's what allows you
playing with your phone. While it's you looking here looking there watching the football match? No,
		

			I'm talking about sincere, focused, is defined where you contemplating?
		

			Since then your wrongs and you are showing sincere regret and seeking forgiveness from yourself.
		

			When Eunice Allah He Salam digressed. A lock was their will to swallow him and in the way he sought
forgiveness said La ilaha illa Anta subhanak in the country Nepali mean. He turned to Allah. And he
sought forgiveness from Allah testify to how perfect Allah is and that there is one worthy of
worship besides Him. Allah says if it wasn't for that wonderful act of worship that he did in the
whale, he would have remained there to the day of Subhan Allah, La homeopathic until the day of
prayer.
		

			So brothers and sisters in Islam, Allah says, if the people of the cities and villages of these
places are men who believed what taco and then acted upon the belief, they weren't just Muslim by
name. It's not enough to be a Muslim by name, you need to walk the talk. Right? And you need to talk
the talk as well. And then talk the walk.
		

			You know, I hope I'm getting it right. This is the language of our our youth today, right? But you
get the message brothers and sisters in Islam. It's not good enough to just say, My name is a fool
and I this Muslim name, and that's it. And I believe in Allah that's it. No, it's action. And that
is why in the Quran whenever Allah says, Allah No, he says why musala has Indian Latina Amano only
had one Latina Am I know what I'm going to solve those who believe and do righteous deeds, it's
about action. And in this ayah, Allah says, they will be punished because of the actions, they
practice the wrong actions. And the opposite of this means that you will succeed and be successful
		

			because of your actions, meaning your actions that will end the mercy of Allah and that mercy will
be the means
		

			by which you will enter
		

			a short reflection, but insha Allah appointment one, and
		

			I pray, it's a means for reflection. We said this is a month of action. Tonight, we need to sit down
and contemplate our activities. Our sins, write them all down, see yourself on paper, write all your
sins down. Right? You know, if you lie, if it's a slip of the tongue, you know, write it down. How
you speak to your parents, how you speak to your spouse, right? You know, at work, you know, how are
you selling yourself? Are you overselling yourself in a way that you deceiving others so that you
can, you know, get the promotion? Are you throwing anyone under the bus for the sake of the dunya? I
looking after the rights of the believers of Allah? What's your relationship with Allah? How are you
		

			upon your own? How upon your Salah Are you success is also inside as Allah subhanho wa Taala tells
us in the Quran, in many places, when he described the people of success they said they were the
people who looked after this Allah Subhana Allah, how are you with your Salah? Really, how are you
with your Salah? Do you pray when it suits you? Or do you pray when it's time to pray immediately
when you know when meeting with Allah subhanho wa Taala has arrived?
		

			How are you with your soccer?
		

			Has there ever been a time where you might have paid less soccer? Have you thought about this? Have
you tried to learn the rules of soccer? Have you tried to seek knowledge pertaining to the matters
that concern you in terms of your relationship with Allah to make sure you are upon righteousness?
You're not in a situation where you think that you are upon righteousness but you're not brothers
and sisters. Nobody wants to go to Allah subhanho wa Taala and on the day of gamma thinking they're
going to be given gender on a plate and then be shocked to see that their whole life was one of
disobedience Allah who stand as Allah subhanho wa Taala says Amina to nurse Eva Jocelyn Armand
		

			hammer tells us about a people who sweated on earth worked and worked and worked and they thought
they would be good Allah says don't slander and hammer they'll be shocked and flung into the depths
of genuine the death of Allah subhanho wa Taala protect us. I mean, I love you all for the sake of
Allah. Remember me and my family and my parents in your prayers. We're Fokker kumala salaam alaikum
alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
