She saw her daughter in a dream, being punished, being tortured in
a pit of darkness. And finally, she was so upset. She wanted
to medically non medical
and make dropper he would do
in milady.
There we go. What I want to talk to you today about is this book.
Everyone's got this, you got to get this book, it says one of the
best books you're ever going to get, I'm telling you, because it's
all about life after the know, the most important thing after belief.
And Alana is messengers, it's you got to believe in life after
death, right? Because that's essentially what most people,
they're
the reason we do things or not do things is because of belief in
life after death. And that's so important, it's so important to
have this Amen, that we're going to meet a lot afterwards, after
you believe in that a lot of tensions they go away a lot of
concerns, a lot of nervousness, it all goes away. Once a person stops
believing in life, or starts believing and remembering. And
it's a thicker, this is not natural, it's not a natural thing
to think about. So it has to be done on purpose. It's got to be
sort of manufactured within you. There are a lot of things about
life that are not natural, I mean, love of Allah and His messenger. I
think that love of Allah subhanaw taala, there's something natural
about it, you know that this universe has a maker, you look at
everything in the world, divided into two categories. natural and
synthetic, of course, everything is the creation of Allah. But when
we look at things, everything in the world is either natural, or
it's synthetic. So this iPad, for example, is synthetic. It's it's
made by a person by human beings. And then you have look at the
trees behind me it's natural, natural things are always more
superior than synthetic things. Number one, okay, they reproduce,
they reproduce themselves, synthetic things don't reproduce
themselves, you buy an iPad, then Apple is going to, you know, start
put out another iPad, you got to get that the whole technology goes
is out, you're going to be getting something completely different in
10 years, right? The cars, you get a car, it starts devaluating.
Right away, you get a horse, though, well, you need two horses,
they're gonna reproduce, right? So not the natural things they
produce themselves, they reproduce, okay? natural things
are free.
Allah doesn't charge you for the sun, because he has no need
synthetic things, manmade, things always come at a price because
human beings are weak. That's why natural man made things, they have
a price because we need money, right? We need wealth, etc.
The things of nature, Allah doesn't need anything from us, he
just given it to us for free. Alright, Allah is more loving. And
the idea of Allah, the being a slave to Allah, we receive His
benefits, we profit from him, he doesn't profit from us. But human
beings, we profit from each other. Right? If you can't buy it,
they're not making it for you. And if you can't pay for it, they're
not selling it to you. All right, natural things are all
interconnected. Whereas synthetic things are not. And that's how we
know the maker of this world is one, because the atmosphere
connects with the hydrosphere. Right? It evaporates water from
the ocean, that water goes up gets purified in the atmosphere, it
goes up saltwater, it comes down natural pure water that you could
drink if not for acid rain, right? But it's something that is all
connected, it comes down into the soil, and in that soil. Right? It
it benefits the soil, right? He could have gotten the soil could
be something that doesn't benefit from water, right? Like, a lot of
materials don't benefit from water, but Allah made the earth
covered it with soil that benefits from water. Number one, it
purifies water, and number two things can grow. And it can be a
home for things. And that's the Geosphere the rocks and the soil.
And then who benefits from that the biosphere, the deers, the
chickens, the human beings we eat from these things, right? So
everything is connected. And that's how we know the maker of
this world. Number one, because nature is superior to manmade
things, and synthetically made things we know that the maker of
this world must be superior in all of his attributes, then the maker
of synthetic things in the same way that you would never believe
that a chicken can make an iPad, or that a rock, right could make a
dam, a beavers dam or that a tree can make a nest because they don't
have the ability. Likewise, we don't have the ability to make
nature to create nature. So the creator of nature must be greater,
right? In all of his attributes than the creator of synthetic
things. Furthermore, the creator of nature must be only one because
everything's interconnected. Even far out the sun and the moon and
everything else is all interconnected. So belief in Allah
to Allah
You can sort of say just by fitrah, we can accept, we know
that we have a maker, and there's compassion in the creation, right?
Just by thinking about it, you will know that there's compassion,
everything's free. Everything comes back to life, everything
heals. That's the sign of love of creation of the creator for His
creation, okay, things heal, things come back to life, things
are beautiful, things are free, things are warm. Alright, so we
have all that love of the prophets, a little a Salam is
something that is not a natural thing that you would just think
of, it has to be something that is transmitted to you, then you
believe it. And then you do something to earn it, that Allah
creates it inside of your heart. In the same vein, thought of life
after death, which is what this book is about, I highly recommend
that everyone gets this, okay? That it's all about life in the
grave, not the afterlife, just life in the grave. Okay, he's got
to go to the great first before we go to the afterlife, that the idea
that we think about the afterlife, is something that it's not natural
to us, we have to actually imbibe it within us. And physically, we
have to try to do it. In the same way that growing muscles is not
something natural, right. And growing, a stomach is natural,
because you love to eat, you're gonna get fat, right? But growing
muscles and being physically fit is unnatural. growing hair is
natural cleaning your hair is on that means it's something that has
to be taught. Right. And we have to be taught this. And the author
of this book, he is impetus of writing it His name is
he actually doesn't put his name on it. He translated his name is
Matthew Locke, his name is not on the cover out of his humility. But
his name is Matthew Locke, he puts his the his name in the inside
cover, not on the outside cover. But
what happened was that he lost his mother in law. And as a result,
the whole family was really just thinking about death. And he came
upon this book. And this happens to all of us, all of us. Right, at
some point or another, you're going to lose a loved one. In the
last podcast, I talked about how I lost, I've only lost one person
close to me in my whole life. Like, of course, I lost my wife's
grandparents who I knew and loved. But you know, they're great. And
they're actually great grandparents, right? Or
grandparents sorry, but someone who I lived with intimately, I
only lost one. And many of you probably have lost love Have I
lost one, which is my best friend. And that happened when I was 19.
He was 20. Okay, and he drowns in Italy doing a semester abroad.
And when you think about death, when you experience the death of a
movement will lie, this is the best reminder, it is the most
amazing experience. And honestly, it's an amazing experience. To me,
I never viewed it as a dark negative thing. Right? I probably
would have viewed it such if there was a Trail of Tears such as
dependents, right? When, when admit when a mom or dad dies, it's
really because you think of the kids, and they gotta go through
life and they're not going to have their, their mom there at the
wedding. They're not gonna have their dad, they're at their
wedding, etc. But Allah takes care of them and the community takes
care of them, or Allah uses the community take care of them. But
when you think about when, when there are no dependents, let's say
an elderly person dies. That experience of witnessing those
deaths, it's to me, it's one of the most Imen boosting students
because we read about the afterlife all the time. And when
you think that someone that you know, that you lived with, just
went there,
their soul came out of their body, we don't know what that means. And
it's a scary thing. If I was to pin you down right now and say,
Listen, I'm gonna about to I'm going to take a tooth out of your
body, a tooth. What does he mean? Because Edie and the alchemy of
happiness say about pain. He says that pain, it only occurs where
the body is connected to the soul. So that's why you can cut your
hair and your nails and you don't feel pain because it's not
connected to the soul. So you only feel pain insofar as the body is
connected to the soul. Okay? When we talk about this, imagine now
the soul itself coming out. And then because it says nobody talks
about that pain, because they're in so much pain that they can't
talk, they can't even open their mouth. And yet for the movement
for the believer, it's like just plucking a flower or plucking a
grape. Right? It's scary. Because someone's about to take your whole
soul out not something out of your body, your entire soul out. So
it's a scary idea. And everyone who's about to die and sees the
American motes coming is scared the prophesy centum said in an
emoji soccer rot. Even the prophets I send him is saying that
he experienced this nervousness at the soul being taken out suck
rotten, moats is the scary part of death. But for the moment, the
soul comes out very lightly. Right. And in fact, they may see
images that are so beautiful
that they it's almost like it's almost like an anesthesia.
And they start looking forward to the world they're going to and go
ask your grandparents and see what they say. And all of you, okay.
About people who died, the righteous people who died, they
always tell you that they're seeing things. Okay? They always
say, in England, I was there, there was a Bengali woman. And she
was very old. She was dying. Her grandson was there at the deathbed
of buy her house, a hospital bed.
And he was reciting to her yes scene. And then after they
finished the scene, she started saying that, you know, Allah,
Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah. She sat up,
and she was saying, Leila Illallah with such strength, although she
was on her deathbed that mean she was really weak. But at that
moment, she got up and she was saying, learning to handle Allah,
Allah, Allah, Allah and she was staring around the hospital bed.
And some of these people have said that we saw that the roof of the
building that they were in, comes off. And they were just looking
up, right, we see a roof. They were seeing something told they
were seeing the vibe, what is relayed to us, they were seeing
it, okay. And she started fervently saying, over and over,
and over and over, alright, with such strength. And then she said,
Muhammad Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa salam, and she laid
down. And he was like, subhanAllah, she just had this
burst of energy. And then he was distracted. He was like, telling
his family that she had this burst of energy. And then suddenly, he
looked and she had passed away.
So Allah Insha Allah, He never shocks in movement. And in as far
as we treat Allah subhanaw taala. With with sincerity in this world,
we're going to see that reward when we die at the moment of
death. And it becomes, as the prophets I said, have said, the
greatest moment of our existence. That's why that podcast is called
the ultimate experience. It's the becomes the greatest moment of
your existence, is the moment when all of the loss that you put in
this world,
the you get a feedback, you get paid back for that, you get the
reward of that. And Allah subhanaw taala says, Well, how did God send
the lesson? Someone who's sincere, isn't his reward. Going to be
someone who gives goodness? Isn't his reward goodness, and how do we
treat Allah, we treat Allah by our opinion of him. Number one, our
constant prayer to Him. Many people they they look for, you
know, sheets and stuff to do a lot of vicar for their Eman to go up.
I'll tell you what's going to take your Eman up is
there is nothing like da and the generosity of dua that you say
that there. We all know that there are three possible responses to
the DUA. Either Allah gives us what we asked for, or he takes
that DUA and you forgive some sins,
or he gives us something in the ACA as a compensation for it,
right? Now, guess what, here's the beauty of it. Anytime that your
mind tells you, Oh, I might get this might not get this. Go back
to your mind and tell yourself Allah is generous. Listen to this.
If you have sins, then the first portion of your DUA
if you're doing it gets answered and you make dua 100 times
you get your DUA answered, that just counts as one dua answered,
the other 99 Do is okay that you made half of them, they will all
go to purify your sins. And if your sins are all cleaned, then
they become reward for you on the afterlife. So what do you get all
three? So don't ever think that when they say that da,
you're gonna get one of three things? No, you can get all three
or two. Okay? Or just one? Right? But you could possibly get all
three. If Allah answers that da, and you prayed for a year, he
didn't answer a year of Da he entered the one da all the rest of
those da go to cleansing your sins, and to elevating your rank
and to extra compensation in the afterlife. I'm telling you our way
in this the Jelic era. We're in a digital IQ era. And what is the
Jelic? ruffler heedlessness of Allah and of the afterlife? And
what is Allah we say God and the Last Day all the time.
That's anything that distracts you from Allah and from the ACA.
It's the darkness. Right? And it's so important to realize that the
judge shaitan and not worried about the one who shouts loudest
for Islam or against down with the dijet he doesn't. That's not what
he worries about what he worries about is the one who prays and he
makes dua.
Alright, and he observes the shear, even if he's silent or even
if he's muted or even if he has no ability, no capacity and 99.9% of
them have no capacity to say anything about this digit.
Like world, they're not in the position to do that. They wouldn't
even know how to what the job. What is his kryptonite? And what
is IBLEES his kryptonite is the man that's in your heart. Right?
Which is not to say that we shouldn't always be forbidding
wrong and commanding right? We should always be doing that. But
the real crux of of the light of iman it comes when you make dua,
when you pray, there's an amazing story about Medicube and dinar.
Way back in bustled a long time ago, a third generation Muslim,
that means his teacher studied under this hobby, who was his
teacher has an animosity. Who was raised in the house of Ole Miss
element, wait for the prophets I send them has an investment his
mom was a servant. She used to work do chores for OMA Selma,
okay, when she had a baby, and she needed to work, she was a poor
woman. So the wife of the Prophet on the Selma said, Give me the
baby, I'll take the baby. All I'll raise the baby at night you pick
them up so she basically offered herself for babysitting
essentially for for this baby. And that baby became fascinated about
so you No wonder he became Hudson University. when the wife of the
Prophet OMA sedima basically is his his caretaker right to
kindergarten and pre K, in the household of OMA settlement. When
he grew up, she sent him off to be around saying that he even ever
thought him and Hassan and Hussein and Mohammed bin Hanafi and those
Sahaba that were in Kufa, he never met the Prophet. Well, his
disciple
was Malik Ibn dinar. Now Malik Ibn dinars, something special about
him,
for all of his youth, was a complete sinner. He was he was he
was a cop for the for the Omega dynasty. And he was a drinker. He
used to drink. No woman would marry him. No family, the fathers
when he would go propose for marriage, they all rejected him.
Okay.
He when it came time for him to marry, he, the only person he
could marry was a prostitute. And he married her, and she stopped
being a prostitute and they got married, okay. His daughter died,
he had a famous story. He made his he turned his life around and he
became a disciple of hustling and bustling.
When this happened, what he ended up doing is that he had a
neighbor. He became the Imam. After hustle and bustle he died.
The neighbor came to complain to him, and said to him, My daughter
has died. Now this daughter was very unique. This the neighbor of
Hudson Buffy her daughter, was set to be the prettiest woman in all
of busta, the prettiest woman and all of us. Alright,
she died. She was not a good person. She used to misuse the
gifts of beauty that Allah gave her. So when her mother buried
her, or after the burial, she saw her daughter in a dream and this
is very common. It's very common, you're gonna see people in dreams.
Okay, I hope the battery doesn't die because I love this topic. My
phone battery's about to die, unfortunately.
But we'll go until it does.
She saw her daughter in a dream being punished. Right? being
punished being tortured in a pit of darkness and fire. She was so
upset. She went to Hudson and bustani automatically been denied
Medicaid and did not said go and pray to hedge it every night and
make the offer. So the mother did that.
A few nights later, manic Eamon de nada sees the dream because
sometimes you can see dreams for other people. He saw a castle in
paradise. That was his. He knew in his heart that it is
she goes in and he looks inside. And he finds that girl wearing a
crown of gold and sitting on a throne. And he said what happened?
We saw you in a pit of fire. She said a man came to the graveyard.
And he recited 1000 Subtle warts on the messenger peace be upon
him. And he said, Oh Allah distribute this reward of this to
anyone who needs it in the graveyard. And he left
and she said that it fell onto my grave. So in other words, the the
DUA
cause her forgiveness. It caused this man to come in and bring this
light and put out
the punishment that she was facing, because that's what God
does. And when the prophesy centum said nothing will benefit you
except a good child. Because the word well it's in Arabic could be
the boy or the girl. A good child that prays for him. It's it's he
said, a good child that prays for him. That's what benefits you in
the afterlife. Because mostly in most cases, that's who prays for
for people, their children, but it means anybody who prays for them.
This man he had basically made a deal out for them and sent this
reward of satellites on the prophets. I said them and he said
that it removed all
I have the punishment. And Allah to Allah has elevated me because I
died as a Muslim
into Paradise, he went and he told the mother, right? Just goes to
show you that when someone dies, oftentimes, there's still a
connection and we could still get news from them. Every time someone
dies, I guarantee you usually one or two nights, the loved ones get
to see their state.
Right? Usually, especially if it's a good state. All right. So
because this battery is going to die, let's see if we can open this
iPad and see if they're, I don't know if I can actually access from
the Instagram from the iPad, to see what's going on here and to
see if I can answer some of your comments or questions.
I can't wait one the day that I have an actual tech person to do
all this stuff. Right? It would be wonderful.
Anyway, let me just look here and see if you guys have anything that
you want to say or talk about
