Dear brothers and sisters,
today,
it will be the first day
in our theme
about
the
situation
or the hardship time that we have.
And just to have as a reminder,
the daily reminder for all of us,
around 8 o'clock.
And,
the theme will be about some verses from
the Quran
and
some Hadith
from our beloved prophet Muhammad,
peace be upon him.
We might memorize the the verses. We might
memorize
the Hadith,
but we did not pay attention
about the interpretation
of these verses
and the Hadith.
Sometime,
even we did not pay attention
about the meaning
of the Hadith.
But because
the situation that we have about the coronavirus,
we have to pay attention
and to have
a deep meaning
about the Hadith that prophet Muhammad
used to say
every
single time
that they have
a difficult time for them.
The hadith that we will start today,
every day we will choose what hadith
to understand the meaning, the interpretation
of this hadith,
or it might be a verse from the
Quran. But today, I choose a hadith in
Sahih Muslim,
that prophet Muhammad
used to ask Allah
to
say
The prophet Muhammad salallahu alaihi wa sallam
used to ask Allah to
say,
I seek refuge
in you,
oh Allah,
for to change
the blessing
and the favor that you granted me.
And to replace
the good condition that you gave me
into
hardship condition.
Which is
the surprising
condition,
and we will
have the time to understand the meaning of
each
sentence of this hadith.
And when we look at these
verses
or these
sentence that, a prophet Muhammad
asked Allah
The first one of them
that Allah
blessed all believers,
all Muslims
with the nirma of Islam.
The our scholars, they mentioned
the nirma of Islam is the biggest nirma
all believers.
And if the person
change his religion
and especially
in the time
right now, we might hear a lot of
voices
to say, I don't believe in Allah anymore.
It's not make sense for me.
You know? I I have free will to
make my own decisions.
And when we look at
the hadith of prophet Muhammad
The person
cannot realize
the significance
of the
of Allah
unless
if Allah
prevented prevented him away from the
They asked Allah
and they said, oh, our lord,
do not
change our hearts
away from guidance
and
grant us
from your
mercy.
And the hadith that the mother of believers
used to say Oh,
Allah, the one who
turned the hearts away
or
changed
the situation
of the hearts
Help my heart to stay firm in my
religion,
and this
is what prophet Muhammad explained
for us.
If you are
believer
it should be
a big
thankful to Allah
that he guided us, and he made us
among believers,
and we have to be thankful
to our Lord.
And when Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala explained
and commanded us,
All you who believe,
fear Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
and do not die
unless if you make sure that you are
Muslims.
When we increase our level
to thank for to thank Allah
Allah will return back to us to increase
us in our blessing and our niam.
And
Allah
explained in the Quran
that
the that he choose and he provided us
and he granted us,
we will not be able to count it.
Even if we try to count 1 by
1,
we will not be able to
reach out how Allah
blessed us.
And when we have a niam,
means we have to pay back
to our Lord, almighty Allah. When we have
a good health,
we have to
pay back to Allah
to use our niam
in obedience of Allah
when we have the money, when we have
the wealth, and we have to pay back
to Allah
When a prophet
us,
In the
he mentioned amazing hadith.
Whosoever
wake up at morning
with the good health
and
in the good
safe condition
and in good width.
He
is secured.
He is saved
in his house,
in his family,
in his town, in his city, in his
flock.
No one scared him.
He has no heart disease in his heart
or his body or his chest.
Subhanallah. He has
the food for his
day.
For tomorrow, it's not ours.
It's in the hands of Allah
If you have the 3 of them,
a good health, a good wealth,
and
the safety,
you have the entire worldly life. What are
you looking for more than this?
And this is what prophet Muhammad encouraged
all of us to be thankful
if we have these
three conditions,
the
good health, a good wealth,
and the safety in our life.
Unfortunately,
we might have some people,
they use the nam that Allah gave them
to disobey Allah.
We have to be very shy.
When Allah gave me the
and I will use the
to make him unhappy with me, and this
is not a good condition at all.
When Allah gave me the money, the wealth,
I have to use it wisely,
and I have to
distribute
my wealth for the sake of Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala as much as I can.
When Allah gave me a good health,
I should not
waste my health for some actions that Allah
will not be happy with me.
When Allah give me the side,
I I I have to lower my gaze
as much as as I can. I have
to use them for something that Allah will
be happy with me to recite Quran,
to
publish
the the books or to publish the useful
knowledge for people to get benefits.
When Allah gave me the hearing system,
I have to pee
to be very careful when I hear
to something that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala doesn't
like.
When Allah gave me
the ability
to walk or to
talk or to
say something,
I have to be very careful
with my word, how I will use the
word to make Allah happy with me. And
when we
see a lot of people,
they are misguided.
They have
Allah
provided them with the good health and good
wealth.
Unfortunately,
they used them
to make Allah
unhappy with them. This is the first
part of the hadith.
O Allah, I seek refuge in you
not to take
the niyam that you granted me
away from me.
Keep it for me, oh Allah, please,
and I will be thankful
about the that you gave me.
And the second part of the hadith today,
what
how to change the situation
from good situation
into bad situation,
and this is,
you know, the specific condition.
It's
came
from the first sentence,
it's one
specific condition.
When you have
a good condition from Allah
when you are healthy,
when when you are wealthy,
when you are a
good person
in your life,
and this is very good condition that Allah
gave you.
And do not
make Allah
unhappy with you because Allah mentioned in the
Quran
If you thank Allah
for what he has
give giving you,
he will increase you in any blessing that
you have from Allah
And the third
sentence that prophet Muhammad
mentioned or the the third supplication
that prophet Muhammad
asked
that
our scholars, they explain
that
the
the death when the death arrive
suddenly,
And the people did not prepare for themselves
themselves for death, and this is a big
loss.
And others kind of they said it's including
all
the
different situation that Allah will
surprise
his servants.
When you have the condition
and suddenly
your condition change it,
and this is very hard.
But the biggest loss
when the person
is
looking
in his life
for
so many years in future,
but unfortunately
he couldn't do it because Allah
wrote our time,
its final decision from Allah
When their time of death arrive,
they are not able
to delay their life for a one moment
or no one will be able to die
before his time
even a single moment. This is how Allah
explained for us
that
it's
a big loss
because the person,
he left his house at morning
and he has a big hope. He will
remain in this life for years,
but
he passed away.
And this is what we need to
pay attention
for it,
to prepare yourself
all the time.
It might be the last hour for us.
It might be the last day for us.
It might be the last month or the
last week for us, and we have to
be very careful with this condition.
Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam one day
he draw
a square and
he draw
straight line in the middle of this square
and the line
passed out of the square
and some some other lines
in the right and left side of
the the straight line.
And he asked the companions
what about what he draw, and they said,
Allah and his messenger
knows best.
And he explained
about
the the straight line. This is
the the son of Adam,
and the square around him, this is his
time that he will live in this worldly
life.
And the other
line outside of the square, this is his
hope or her hope in life.
It's far far away
from his agenda.
And whatever prophet Muhammad
draw around that straight line
which is the difficulties
and the sickness
and the hardship times
that people will face in their life.
Oh my lord, give me one more chance
to go back to my worldly life.
Perhaps
I will do a good deed.
I will I I promise.
Just give me one more chance.
And we have
a very pious scholar.
He built for himself
a grave
in his room.
And every single night, he used to enter
into the grave
and lock the door
and
ask himself, oh my lord, give me one
more chance.
And he talked to his to himself
so many hours.
And after that and he opened the door
of the grave, and he
get out of the grave, and he stood
up
on front of the grave and he said,
oh myself,
you
were were wishing to come back to this
life to do righteous deeds
and
Allah
listen to your
supplication.
Allah accepted your supplication
and now you have a chance
to do good deeds
and don't
and do not delay it.
Do not
make it tomorrow. Just make it today before
tomorrow.
Allah
helped you out
to
love your faith, your deen, your iman,
and Allah
purified
your iman in your hearts.
And this is a big nahma from Allah
like we sculpt
our theme today.
And Allah
protected you
from disbelief
and disobedience,
and Allah
make
believers
among
the ones who's guided,
and this is from Allah
When you feel that you love to pray,
you love to
do, you love to donate,
you love to worship Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala,
it's
a big blessing from Allah
for you.
And don't
neglect
what Allah
gave you. You have to be thankful
to Allah
Otherwise,
the
the person will be
among hypocrites,
because Allah
mentioned about the condition of
When the time of prayers
arrived,
the hypocrites,
they stood up
with the laziness.
They are lazy.
They do not
like to pray,
but because
they feel it will be a shameful
upon them
if they do not pray. People will,
accuse them because they they they are not
praying.
This is why Allah
says
they only care
about showing off,
on front of others.
And they do not remember Allah except
few times,
and this is not our characteristics.
Our characteristics
to mention Allah's name,
so much
A lot of time,
you know, like, Allah explained,
this is the the the good one,
the one who mentioned
Allah's name,
so many time.
And in the end of our session today,
in the end of our reminder today,
you know, just I would like to
grab into our intention,
all of us.
We have a hard situation right now. It's
every week.
It's known,
very known,
condition right now,
and
all the are
closed. All universities
are closed. All schools are closed.
You know? It's really
very difficult situation.
Can you imagine
when Allah
mentioned about Hajj,
pilgrimage?
When Allah
explain
to go to perform Hajj if you are
able to make it.
But how about the condition today?
The one who is very rich,
the one who is,
very healthy,
the the one who has ability to take,
you know,
his own,
airplane
to go to Mecca or to go to
Medina to visit,
but no one is able to make it.
And this is something really we need to
to understand
the situation, the hard situation that we have
right now.
You know? In the past time,
I we used to
remind people come to Allah's houses, come to
the mosques,
come to the masajid,
to perform prayers
on time and the people were lazy.
People were finding their their excuse not to
come to the masjid. But now
everybody has a wish.
I wish if I can go to the
masjid.
You know, we really
lost a lot a lot a lot of
opportunities
we had before.
When we make at home
and go to our masajid,
you know, every single step
will elevate us
one good deeds
and one level and will remove away one
bad deeds. SubhanAllah,
we are not able to make it anymore.
When we go to salatil jama'ah in the
masajid
to have,
you know, extra word from Allah
We are not able to make it anymore.
When we
stay at the masjid after fajr prayer until
sunrise to have halakah
for Tajweed
and to have the word of Hajj and
Umrah. We are not able to make it
anymore.
We are not able even to go to
make Umrah or to make Hajj,
and Allah knows best.
We
are we able
to receive the month of Ramadan
in good condition
or not?
And really it's
astonishing
situation
for us. We really need to stop
the bad behaviors
or the bad actions that we used to
do between us and Allah
It might be
a good chance
for all of us.
Just we need to spend
few minutes
to have conversation
between ourselves and our lord
almighty Allah.
Every single one of us, he or she
knows
what we have done
to make Allah
unhappy with us and we really need to
quit.
We need to change our mind and
every single one of us
knows
what we
did
in our actions
makes Allah happy with us and we need
to repeat it again and increase it as
much as we can
because
when we do righteous deeds
or good deeds,
we might
protect
the entire
world
because
prophet Muhammad mentioned
You know, our,
my advice for myself and my brothers and
my sisters,
just this is the time we need to
stop
any bad actions
that we used to do before
because it's a serious matter.
We don't know if Allah
will save us
and to pass this
hardship time or we're gonna end
our our our life up. It might be
the end. Nobody knows. Just
most of us just locked at home. No
one can go outside. No one can can
go to the masajid anymore. No one can
go to the school. No one can go
to to his university or her universities.
This is
really a serious matter
and we need
to wake up. We need to ask Allah
This is what Sayyid Nani
told his followers
to ask Allah for forgiveness,
and I ask Allah
to forgive all of us.
