All praise be to Allah, the most significant,
the most merciful,
and I bear witness
that there no one has right to be
worshiped but Allah
and I bear witness that our beloved prophet
Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,
he is the last final messenger of Allah.
Dear brothers and sisters,
We still,
learning
from our beloved prophet
Ibrahim alayhis salaam
and from his life, from his
stories,
from his
tests
and his trials.
I choose the verses today because really I
would love to clarify
some conditions
with ourselves.
We need to learn, and we need to
realize.
When you look at yourself,
when Allah
helped you out
to wake up early and to prepare yourself
and to come
to Allah's house,
it's not by luck.
It's by Allah's plan.
When Sayedna Ibrahim alaihis salam
asked Allah
He asked Allah
so many
requests,
but just we will have
the brief
way to realize how Sayedna Ibrahim
asked Allah
and how Allah responds back to him.
When we started
recitation
that Allah
put Ibrahim on the trials,
alayhis salam.
And Allah told him after he passed all
his
trials,
and he told him,
I will make you as
a leader, a religious leader for mankind.
And Saidna Ibrahim,
you know, like
parents, they wish for their children
goodness more than
their own self.
This is what
we wish for our children and our offspring
even more than what we have right now.
Oh Allah,
from my offspring,
they will be leaders for mankind.
Allah
explained for him.
No one will be able to take my
command
or to be
religious leader and to lead people
as long as they
have wrong way,
they are wrong doors,
or they are
oppressors.
And when you look at yourself that Allah
gave you chance
to be chosen,
you have to be grateful to Allah
When you did the Ibadah
and
we did.
Sayeduna Ibrahim,
he passed all the tests.
And when you have any
trial in your life, when you have any
difficulties in your life, when you have any
hardship in your life,
we have to realize
that Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
doesn't like
to make difficult for his servants,
almighty Allah.
But he made it
for a purpose
and he knows
who will pass
and who will not.
But when you make something good,
when you pray,
when you donate,
when you fast, when you recite Quran,
when you glorify Allah
when you praise Allah,
you have to realize
it's not by luck.
Because a a lot of people, they outside,
they did not
have a chance
to fix
the relationship
with their Lord.
But when you feel that, alhamdulillah, you have
good relationship
with Allah and this is a blessing from
Allah subhanahu ta'ala.
And we will keep this
point and go
quickly
to ask about
risk.
When, Sayeduna Ibrahim asked Allah
to make it
a place of peace
and secure.
And provide its people from
Athamrat.
Subhanallah.
And Sayyidna Ibrahim learned
from the first
request,
and he mentioned
Only for the one who believes in Allah
and hereafter.
And Allah corrected him
and Allah
almighty Allah told Sayyiduna Ibrahim,
provisions, it's not only for believers.
It will be all also for disbelievers.
When you have a lot of wealth in
your life or when the not you. When
the person has a lot of wealth in
his life, but he did not
bow,
he did not prostrate himself
to Allah,
it's nothing.
He's a mesquite.
He's
very poor person
because he has nothing
for hereafter.
When
when he said
in the first time,
and Allah told him
And this is the point that we really
would like to clarify
for today.
When you teach your child to be pious
and righteous,
and this is very good condition,
because
he will send, he will make you happy
in this worldly life and hereafter.
But when you teach him how to earn
the money and the wealth and to become
rich and
you know,
it might harm you in this worldly life
and it will harm you in hereafter
because you did not teach him, you did
not give him the correct tools
to survive
in this
life.
When Sayyidina Ibrahim learned from the first lesson,
you know, and he explained for Allah Subhanahu
Wa
Ta'ala,
and Allah told him,
even these believers,
I will make it easy for them for
a while,
but I will brought him in the hereafter.
Just I will conclude my reminder today
with the question.
Why when we pray,
we mention
our beloved Muhammad and
his family
and our beloved prophet Ibrahim and his family
in our salah?
Why?
Did you think about this question before?
Muhammad
Why only we have to mention 2 prophets?
Yeah. Why we did not mention the, the
other 5 other 3,
prophets, the 5 of
Oli al Azmi minar Rusul? Why we did
not mention any other name of the prophets
in our
salah. Ibrahim, he makes obligation for us
when he said
He was revealing to Sayeduna Muhammad
from
Arabs nation,
a prophet amongst them, which is And
when he asked Allah
to make him and his son
as a Muslim, And
what?
We
are offspring
of prophet Ibrahim
and prophet
alayhi mawala nabiyehna salatu wa salam. And he
did supplication for us to be Muslim,
to submit ourselves to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
And the night
of decree the the night the journey night
when prophet Muhammad SAW
Salam, went from Mecca
to Palestine and Allah elevated him from Palestine
to
Sidratil Muntaha.
And he met
all the prophets and the messengers
in the heavens.
When he used to pass with by any
prophet to say,
and the prophet respond back to our beloved
prophet Muhammad sasalam.
And
only Sayyidina Ibrahim,
he sent salaam with Sayyidina Muhammad sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam
for us.
Allah.
Can you imagine?
The only prophet
sent
salaam for you.
Ibrahim.
Subhanallah, when you when you help somebody out,
when you make supplication for somebody and this
is why our religion taught us, when you
make supplication
for anyone,
Allah
will assign a certain angel, Malak
When you say, oh, Allah, for
my brother or my dad or my mom
or they
they are not with you right now.
But Allah
will assign
a cert a certain angel to say.
You will have the word of same supplication
that you do or you did for your
brother, and this we need to realize. Every
time when we pray to say,
And this is what we need to realize
when we do any Ibadah,
we have to understand what is the the
wisdom for this Ibadah.
What is the secret behind the Ibadah?
It will encourage us more and more, and
it will make it easy for us when
we think that our beloved Sayyiduna Ibrahim alayhis
salam, he did supplication for us as offspring
of him, and he sent salaam with our
beloved prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam in
Laylatul Israe wal Miraj. And he told the
prophet Muhammad,
say salaam to your nation.
Don't forget tomorrow, inshallah, will be 9th of
the.
Do.
And remind your family members with
tomorrow. And don't forget, after tomorrow, the sacrifice,
the the the and
this is
