Dear brothers and sisters, I would like to
clarify
some things
for all of us
in the 1st 10 days
of the future. I was talking last Friday.
In in general,
good deeds,
what we need to learn or what we
need to earn.
But today,
specifically, I will mention
2 actions.
We should deal with them
Especially in this coming Monday, it will be
9th of Dhul Hijjah.
And month,
the 9th of Dhul Hijjah, a prophet Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam mentioned
that
whosoever passes the day of Arafat,
I hope that Allah
will exhibit
2 years of sales for him or her,
the previous year and the following year.
This is for Monday, this coming Monday.
And you can you can have more than
one intention
as long as you will not make up
for the suyan from Ramadan.
You can compare between 2 or 3 or
even 10 intentions
in Nawazim.
You can combine between the mandate.
It's very highly commanded to fast. And 9th
of the hijack.
And this is very highly commanded, Aslan, also
to fast, and you can combine between 2
intentions
or more.
And we have Iftar at the masjid on
Monday.
An invitation for everybody. All of you are
invited.
Insha Allah. We gonna start from a prayer.
We have Purrham.
Use the squad with Quran double big Purrham
for children,
and we will have our
iftar insha Allah by Madrid time.
Please join us in the mess at the
masqid
insha'a'a'a mandate.
The following day, which is the very important
day for all of us
to conclude
the first 10 days of hija,
the day of Eid.
We have Eid prayer at morning,
but after that,
the most important actions for all of us
as believers
to
slaughter your animal
or sacrifice
or to do for burial for the sake
of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
When we look at the Quran,
we have the longest
chapter of the Quran
was revealed
in one time
with
the 70,000
angels.
They brought it down to prophet Muhammad salamu
alayhi wasalam with the Jibreel alaihi wa sallam
one time, which is the chapter of the
cattle,
chapter of animals,
Suratul and Anam.
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala talked in the last
few
verses of the chapter
about
our life
and our prayers,
our nusuk,
our sacrifice,
and our death
supposed to be for the sake of Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala.
For the sake of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
The
Lord of Al-'Alami
has
no partner.
It's a command from Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
When we look at the same level
that Allah mentioned prayers
and in the same level that Allah mentioned
sacrifice,
slaughtering animals.
Why?
Because
a lot of people when they sacrifice,
they might do mistakes.
They might slaughter for the sake of something
else beside Allah's name, and this is big
wrong.
We have even we have some Muslims, they
might be slaughters for some people in the
graves or some people or righteous people or
mention other names beside
Allah's names,
and this is very danger.
We have to pay attention for that. It's
a aqidah issue.
When we slaughter, we have to mention Allah's
name sincerely
and for the sake of Allah
only,
not for anything
else.
And when we slaughter,
prophet Muhammad told
us
to turn the face of the animals toward
Kaaba.
The same idea. When we pray, we have
to put our face towards Kaaba,
the direction of Kaaba.
And when we when we slaughter, we have
to magnify Allah and raise
our voices to mention Allah's name,
to say, bismillah Allahu Akbar. The same idea.
When we pray, we have to raise our
hands and say, Allahu Akbar for Takbiratil Ihram.
And a lot of Muslims, they have no
idea about the competition
or the companion between prayers and
slaughtering animals for the sake of Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala.
Even the chapter
the small chapter that Allah revealed
for prophet
Muhammad We granted you the river of encounter
in paradise,
o Muhammad, peace be upon him.
What should you do after that?
You have to be thankful.
Pray for your lord.
And the slaughter you will sacrifice.
And our skills dimension, it's in general
command
for all the prayers.
When we pray, we have to pray for
the sake of Allah. When we slaughter animals,
we have to slaughter them for the sake
of Allah. And some companions,
they said it's only a specific
prayer which is the prayer of aid and
the specific slaughtering which is the slaughtering
for the Qurbani
on the 8th day or the 3 days
after the after 8th.
Either way,
the two opinions are correct.
Because when we pray, we have to pray
sincerely for the sake of Allah. When we
slaughter our animals, we have to slaughter them
for the sake of Allah in any way.
And this is the idea.
Some people, they choose
to eat
the meat
and they they did not pay attention.
Are these animals really were slaughtering or not?
It's very, very, very tricky for all of
us. We gonna harm our bodies
if we do if we have
any meat without
slaughtering
in the
Islamic way.
We gonna harm our bodies
and we gonna lose our
health and we gonna lose our wealth, our
money
praying during the night while while people aren't
sleeping.
What is the word for that, oh prophet
Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam?
You will enter into paradise with the peace
of mind.
And when we have the same hadith,
comparing with the verse that Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala mentioned in the Quran
about the characteristics
of believers,
They humble themselves.
When the ignorant
talk to them badly,
they return back to them with the peace.
The same way of the hadith of prophet
Muhammad subhanahu wa ta'ala sallam, the same way
of the verse
of the Quran.
As long as you have good intention,
do good deeds as much as you can.
Even our scholars mentioned, if the person
gave all his will for the sake of
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, it's not wasting.
You know?
The wasting when you spin
8,
even your wealth,
100%,
it's not wasting your money because
you rely on your Lord and you trust
him. Whatever we will give for the sake
of Allah, Allah will return it back to
you, and Allah will never buy it so
many times for you.
And if
we do trust Allah
we should not be afraid
because that is in Allah's hand.
I will return back to my point.
The best action
after any prayer on 10th of
of Abdul Hejjah,
slaughtering animals
for the sake of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
And there were for that.
You will have
good deeds,
equal of the hair of animal.
The camel or the cow or the sheep
or the goat, whatever you choose
which is fine.
But we need to have really sincere intention
for the sake of Allah a sujal. It
doesn't matter
how it's big or small. It's it's not
the important.
The most important, our intention.
When we do
something, we have to do for the sake
of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. Because Allah doesn't
have any benefit
from our
slaughtering.
Allah will not have benefit from our slaughtering,
but
it will increase
our level of piety.
And this is very important for us to
understand.
Also,
prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam mentioned
for his daughter Fatima.
May Allah be pleased with her and all
companions of Rasulillah
when he told her, oh Fatima wake up
to absorb your uttiyyah,
to watch your uttiyyah because
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will forgive all your
rebellious sins with the first drop of blood.
SubhanAllah.
When you know it for the sake of
Allah, your rebellious sins will be forgiven.
Allah will remove all the sins that we
had
before
slaughtering.
And we have to slaughter after Eid. We
cannot slaughter before Eid, and we cannot slaughter
after the 3 days of tashrikh
because this is a ibadah. And we have
to do a ibadah on the certain time
that Allah choose. Like when we pray, we
cannot pray out of time. We have to
pray on the time that Allah mentioned for
us.
And the same idea for
slaughtering animals
for all of us to realize that. It's
once a year, but
the world,
it's beyond our imagination
because this is from
Allah And before the that area, just one
area,
The one who comes with the a single
good deed, Allah will will reward him or
her with 10 times of good deeds.
And just do whatever you can.
This is your
choice
and this is your chance.
We still
in the middle of 10 days of the
hijack.
Today is
6th,
and we still have 3 days more.
Do
as much as you can. Ask
Allah to accept
our good deeds and to forgive all of
us.
Just a quick announcement, inshallah.
About Ifta, inshallah.
It's,
prepared at the restaurant.
If you are willing to participate in reward,
the door is open for any,
donation.
If not, just the what the Masjid needs,
just to come, bring your family, your children
to enjoy
that day, the day of Arafat. This is
very important day. Also, for uphayah, as much
as you can. If you can do 1
animal or 2 or 3, it's up to
you. This is for the sake of Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala. It's not for them for
the sake of Allah azza wa jal. And
this is your Distribution of the
of the the third? Yeah. Yeah.
You you have 1 third of the for
your family and yourself,
and the second third for your friends and
your neighbor,
and the third the third part of the
for the needy people in the town
around you. And if you if you can
find people to give them your your gift
of the mead, do it by yourself. It's
much better. If not, you can bring it
to the masjid inshallah.
We have some brothers and sisters. They will
distribute
the mead in behalf of your your name
inshaAllah aza wa jal.
With the important announcement inshaAllah
for aid and prayer.
Just wanna Public School is in session, so
we could not take, the building and use
it for
prayer.
However, brother Muftar was working very hard to
establish and find a place for us to
really fit us. And we found Delta Plex
Delta Plex. It is,
25100
Turner.
It is it take, at least half an
hour to 35 minutes from here to get
there. We cannot start
the,
tech beer at 8 o'clock.
By 8:30, we cannot do the Eid prayer.
Just as a reminder, remind myself and you
brothers and sisters that
Eid prayer is not a replacement
for Fajr prayer. Make sure you pray your
Fajr Fajr prayer.
2nd,
to get to the Delta Plex, it is
one way and the street is under construction.
My advice to you and to the brother
and sister and myself
