Dear brothers and sisters,
today, I will be talking about
the ending of life,
how to make sure that you will die
as a Muslim.
And this is the biggest
wish
for
all the prophets and the messengers of Allah.
Even for the bravest
messengers and the prophet of Allah, they ask
Allah
to take their souls out of their bodies
while they are Muslims.
And this is
the reality
or the hidden reality for all of us.
We do not know
when death will visit us,
and no one can reject it.
No one can run away from death.
No one is able to say no for
death.
And this is the situation
we need to understand today.
Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala,
decided for all of us how many days,
how many months, how many years, even how
many minutes, how many seconds
we're gonna live in this life.
And
when the time arrived,
no one will be able to delay his
moment or her moment.
And Allah says,
When their time arrived,
no one will be able to delay it
for
a single second.
And one no one will be able to
take the soul of others
before Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, decided that.
And
for all of us today
that Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, mentioned in the
Quran, in the chapter of family Imran, Imran
Every single
soul will
test
death.
And
the real winner,
the one who removed away from his fire
and admit into
And Allah
advises all believers.
All you who believe,
fear Allah,
the best condition.
And
do not die unless you make sure that
you are
Muslim.
And the prophet Ibrahim,
peace be upon him, and the prophet Yaqub
Jukam, peace be upon them,
held the advice
their
children
and their
offsprings.
Ibrahim
and Jokab,
they advised
their children
with the amazing advice.
They said to their
children, Allah has been chosen
your religion.
And, father,
do not die unless if you make sure
that you are
the same message.
All of them they worship the same God.
Almighty Allah, the creator. Almighty Allah.
And they advises
they advised
their
own children.
And when you have a special advice for
your own
child or your own children,
really you care about them.
And this is the idea.
Prophet Ibrahim and the prophet Jogah, peace be
upon them, they advised
their own children.
Do not die unless if you make sure
that you are Muslims.
And
prophet Yusuf alaihis salam,
Joseph,
in the end of his journey,
how he was struggling
in his life
while he was a child and become
an adult
and become
the minister
of Egypt.
And he asked Allah
in the end of his journey
one request.
You will be amazed.
And he asked
Allah subhanahu wa'ala and he says, tawafani
Muslim,
oh my lord, help me to die as
a Muslim. Muslim means to submit yourself to
Allah's will,
to worship Allah subhanahu wa'ala, not to associate
any partner with him. Because this is disrespect
when we say Allah cannot do something.
It's impossible for lord for our lord to
do that. No. It's not it's it's not
impossible
for our lord to do anything that he
wish.
It might be impossible for ourselves because we
we we are nothing.
We are weak.
We are human beings.
But for our lord, almighty Allah, he can
do whatever he wants.
And the prophet Yusuf alaihi salam, he asked
Allah and says,
Oh my lord, help me out to die
as a Muslim and help me to join
pious and righteous.
And, oh Allah, help all of us to
die as a Muslims and help all of
us to join pious and righteous people in
the day of judgment.
And even
pious and righteous people,
they made request
in the whole Quran.
They asked Allah
a certain
request.
What did they say to Allah
all
pious and all believers?
Allah
mentioned
in Surat al Imran also,
and he says,
on the tongue of
believers, the tongue of
pious and righteous people,
they said to Allah
our lord, forgive us.
Forgive our evil deeds.
And execute our bad sins.
Help us to die
as a pious and righteous.
And abroad,
the good doers.
And this is their request to Allah
their supplications
to Allah.
And there is some tools.
If we would like to die as a
Muslims,
there is a certain tools we have to
apply,
a certain ways we have to follow.
The first way, to be pious,
to feel Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala.
Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala mentioned
in the chapter of the stories,
Surah Al Khasos.
The good dwelling in here after, it will
be for the one who doesn't like to
show off
in this temporary
life.
Yeah. They would end
for lies and righteous.
And Allah
also
mentioned the other tool for us to apply
to be
highest
and to end our life as a Muslims.
Nobody
knows
when we're gonna die.
But we have to prepare ourselves and we
have to stay firm in our religion
till the time of death
comes to us.
And the second tool we should apply today
to stay firm
in righteousness.
And it will result
that Allah
will help us out
in this temporary life and the time of
death and hereafter.
Allah
mentioned in the
Quran. Allah will help out
those who
believe in Allah with
the correct
words.
The correct word here
means
to testify there is no one has right
to be worshiped but Allah, the creator.
And to testify that Muhammad,
peace be upon him, he is the last
final messenger of Allah.
And it will be the tie on the
time of death.
Now who will say this this sentence?
He will be in safe.
He will be in good condition
because
when the person dies,
he or she will be resurrected in the
day of judgment in the same condition that
he left this temporary life.
It will be witness
for him.
It will intercede for him or her.
The time of pilgrimage
when prophet Muhammad was
performing
Hajj, pil pilgrimage.
And there is a companion. He passed away
in the time of Hajj,
in the state of Ihram.
And prophet Muhammad salawalayalam
suggested
his companions
not to cover his head
because when the pilgrim
in the state of ihram,
he should not cover his head.
And the prophet Muhammad salallahu alayhi wasalam suggested
his companions
not to cover his head because when
Allah called people in the day of judgement
to be resurrected,
he will be resurrected
saying
And this is the proof, the evidence for
the person
who will die or she will die,
they will be resurrected in the day of
judgment in the same condition that they passed
away.
And this is the second tool we have
to apply to stay firm
in righteousness,
to stay firm in our religion. We should
not
change our mind. We should not give up.
We have to obey Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
until the last moment of our life.
Both 2.
When we stay firm in our religion,
Allah will send down the glad tidings for
us
by the angels.
Allah
says in the Quran,
For those who says our Lord is
Allah.
Then they stay firm in their religion.
They stay firm in their world.
It's not faking
by our tongues only. No. We have to
say it by our tongues
and confirm it by our hearts and confirm
it also.
Believe it by our hearts and confirm it
by our lands
lands.
The 3 of them.
And Allah
mentioned in the Quran,
The angels
will come down
for them.
Do not be afraid
and do not be sad.
And you have blood titans
from your Lord.
You have glad tidings
for the paradise that Allah
promised you.
Why we we
harming ourselves,
worshiping Allah all
the time? We can stay home, enjoy our
life. But why we choose to pray? Why
we choose to fast? Why we choose to
go in journey for help? Why we choose
really to
to harm ourselves
for the sake of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala?
When we stand
praying,
when we fasting during the summertime,
when we
helping out
through charity
and almost heaven,
when we go in journey to perform had.
Why?
Because we do believe in Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala that Allah will not waste
our offers.
Allah will not waste our time. Allah will
reward us more than what we expect.
And this is the second
tool we have to apply today to stay
firm in our religion. And Allah
will end our life as a Muslims, as
a believers. This is what Allah
promises us.
Also,
the third tool today
to hurry up,
to return back to your lord,
to hurry up in repentance
to our lord, almighty Allah.
If you did something wrong,
do not delay
repentance.
You have to wake up and go back
to Allah
as soon as possible
because nobody knows.
We will have a chance to
to sleep with our family members tonight or
not.
When we did something bad, we have to
return back to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala as
soon as possible.
Ask him for forgiveness
and decline
to him
and let your tears
comes out
of your eyes
for the sake of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
He will listen to you, and he will
respond to you. He will be happy with
you.
He will be satisfied with you if you
really decide to go back to him, almighty
Allah. I wouldn't conclude my
speech
today with the amazing Hadith of prophet Muhammad,
subhanahu alaihi wa sallam. That prophet Muhammad, subhanahu
alaihi wa sallam, mentioned
a very unique Hadith
for all of
us to apply
and to take advantage
and to hurry up
to follow
the rule of this hadith
that prophet Muhammad
When Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala wants goodness
for any person,
Allah will use him or her before the
time of death.
And the companions asked him, how Allah will
use
the person?
And the prophet Muhammad
sahala
will help him out to do
goodness
or to do right righteousness,
to do good deeds.
And
Allah will take his soul out of his
body
while he was worried for shiving Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala. It will be and stand for
him or for her.
And prophet Muhammad used
to seek refuge in Allah
from what?
A prophet Muhammad
Ask
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to protect him
from
Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, used to
seek refuge in Allah to protect him from
the trying of the life.
We might have trials in our life,
but the winner, the one who will pass
it,
the one who will not
get lost in his life.
It's easy to have trials in your life.
But
the real winner, the one who was guided
by Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala was protected by
Aba azza wa Jal.
The trial of the life.
The trial of the time of death.
It's very scary situation
because we do not know we will die
as a Muslim
or not. We would say la ilaha illallah
in the end of our life or not.
We would say there there is no one
has right to be worshipped but Allah in
the end of our life or not.
And this is the situation.
We have to understand.
Our life
is unseen for us,
and
we have to prepare ourselves
waiting for the death. I'm not saying we
have to stay home waiting for death. No.
We have to work hard. We have to
help out.
But we should not forget.
We should not
forget
death
in our life,
to remember death all the time
and to prepare yourself
to receive it
in any moment in our life. May Allah
help all of us out
to understand our mission in this life
and to work hard in this life
to achieve the highest level in paradise
with our beloved prophet Muhammad,
peace be upon him, and all previous messengers
and the prophets
of Allah.
May Allah
submit
her in the highest level in paradise and
may Allah forgive her. May Allah
give her family patience.
