Inshallah,
5, 10 minutes max,
for the reminder.
I had something in my mind, but, subhanallah,
this supplication
came to
my mind right now. I will change
the topic that I prepared
to discuss with you, my brothers.
What is the meaning? Why? What is the
wisdom?
We have to say
10 times
in our position
right away before salam?
We need to understand why. What is the
benefit for that? What is the wisdom, the
secret behind that?
And Nabi sallahu alaihi wa sallam mentioned
for us that supplication because he loves us.
Peace be upon him. And he taught us
every single
way to gain more from
Allah
and to prove ourselves
with Allah
that we are the servants of Allah.
When we look at how Allah put
our prayers in order,
we pray Fajr,
2 raka.
We pray Madrib,
3 raka,
and we pray and Asr and Isha 4
raka.
When we look at how Allah
put them in order,
we start our day, like, right now with
the Fajr prayer
and Dor and As
and sunset prayer which is Maghrib prayer.
Why Maghrib 3 Rakah?
Odd number.
Why is
it not
4 raka like Isha or Maghrib?
Or
we can say 2 raka like Fajr. We
start the Fajr at morning too, and we
have to end the day up with the
2 raka.
It's fair. But no.
This is for the purpose.
Allah
commanded us to pray 3 raka in the
end of the day. For what?
To testify
for Allah
because Allah is wet.
This
is hadith
Allah created
everything,
needs
to each other
except Allah
He doesn't need any help from anyone.
Allah created,
you know, male and female.
Allah created,
you know, men and women, and they have
to come together
and to
help one another, support one another, and have
the relation for the sake of Allah
to have a chance
for the offspring to worship Allah
to be Khalifa
on earth,
and even for animals, azaqumullah.
Animals, we have male
animal and female animal, the same idea.
SubhanAllah.
Even for the trees,
we have female tree
and
male tree.
If we forget
to
connect them together
for pollutions,
you know, for the pump tree, for the
dates, for the tamil,
If we forget to do that, Allah
commanded the wind
to do that for us.
SubhanAllah.
Even if we do not pay attention for
that, but Allah
did that for us.
Even for,
you know, the positive
and
the negative
for the light that we have right now,
it will not work
by one wing.
You have to have both of them,
the positive
and the negative.
Muhammad Rasulullah.
And this is why Allah mentioned
We created from every everything
spouse
or
two things,
male and female.
You might be
able to remember Allah Subhanahu Ta'ala and go
back to Allah. If we remember Allah,
what we have to do?
Fafirruuuil
Allah.
Go back to Allah
Now we come back to understand
why we have to say
We have to testify
in at morning
and evening,
every single day.
Because when we pray,
we pray maghrib 3 rakas, which is wetr.
And the prophet Muhammad commanded
us to pray
another prayer
as ad prayer in the end of the
day. Which prayer? In
the end
Make the last prayer in your night
as odd prayer.
1
or 3
or 5 or 7 and went to shahood.
All of them came from prophet Muhammad sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam. All of them are good.
Now we testify in the end of the
day with the salatul maghrib.
We testify in the end of the night
with the salat al with
our actions.
Now we're praying 3 rakah for Maghrib. Now
we're praying 1 rakah for wettah or 3
rakah or 5 or 7, you know, any
odd number, it's good.
We're
testifying by our actions every single day, even
if we did not pay attention for that,
but this is the wisdom for that. Now
we need to testify by our tongues
to say
what?
No one has right to be worshiped but
Allah,
Almighty Allah.
The one who has
right
to take to give life and to take
the souls out of the bodies.
You see where you meet.
Every single day when we go to our
beds,
you know, I have
this is the smallest
death.
We practice death every single day and we
did not pay attention. When we wake up,
Alhamdulillah,
Allah gave me another chance of life.
Allah gave me another opportunity of life. This
is why we have to be very optimistic.
When you wake up
and
you touch your bodies, alhamdulillah,
I'm still healthy. I can walk to the
Masjid. I can drive to the Masjid. I
can go to Allah's house.
You are the lucky
person on earth because Allah gave you another
chance to increase your good deeds as much
as you can. This is the point.
Be thankful and be grateful to Allah
When you wake up and find yourself, alhamdulillah,
I'm still healthy,
nothing wrong wrong with my system, this is
great from Allah
for every everybody of us. Now we testifying
after Fajr prayer to say.
You said it after fajr. Now
you you did the zakah,
yeah, for your your body, and you did
the zakah for your tongue,
and you will say it after Maghrib prayer
the same way,
to sit in your condition.
Don't even don't say salaam alaykum for your
brother or the people around you. Even though
make yourself busy with the tasbih,
glorifying Allah
or tahmid,
praising Allah
or takbir, magnifying Allah
No. This is before everything. When you say,
Assalamu Alaikum
Assalamu alaikum,
Now, this is the perfect time
to testify by your tongue. There is no
one has right to be worshipped but Allah.
Remember, every time,
every single day when you pray Fajr,
sit in your condition, in your position, and
say count them 10 times.
And the same idea after sunset prayer, after
Maghrib prayer. You know? Now you're testifying by
your actions,
at morning,
you
or at the end of the night at
the end of the day, and you're testifying
by your tongue in the beginning of the
day and the beginning
of the night. Now you are
pure
servant
for your Lord. May Allah subhanahu ta'ala make
all of us
a a real servant of him, to serve
him and to worship him and to be
obedience real obedience to Allah.
