If a person makes drop properly and does exactly what the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam teaches us on how to do it, you
will transform as a human being. And one of the things that's going
to transform you as a human being is that you are going to learn
perseverance, perseverance and persistence is a precondition of
dua, and oftentimes Allah subhanaw taala withholds his answer from
you only to grow and to develop your perseverance. There's only
one way to learn it. And it is through actual real life being
deprived of what you want.
Here the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam gives you the number one
most important positive precondition positive
preconditioning, meaning something you have to do, there's only one
truly positive precondition for da, and there's one negative one,
the negative one mentioned it earlier. You make sure your wealth
that you earn is halal. The food you eat is halal. That's like
negative. In other words, avoid the haram. That's how it's
negative. Now the positive one is in this hadith and Ebihara, the
Allah which Allah and not us, will allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
the Prophet peace be upon him said, you will get your answer,
provided you don't rush, Mata myalgia they said, O Messenger of
Allah, what is this? stagette What is this rushett Prophet peace be
upon him said, the person says, I made dua, and I may draw and I
tried so hard, and I didn't get an answer. So he quits Satan, the
Musa and Satan, the heroine on the very first night that Prophet Musa
alayhis salam arrived back into Egypt. He was commanded go to
town, warn him and tell him to free the Benissa so Prophet Musa
sat before that meeting, and he made dua with how to insane me
next to him. He made a long draw for toe Philip. Now he's going to
face not only the tyrant of his era, somebody who has a crime
against him, which is the killing of the Egyptian soldier has many
blessings that He could say you grew up in my house I raised you
and all these other things. So it's gonna be very awkward this
meeting. On top of being being the biggest tyrant in the world, and
ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada immediately after they said, Amin, Kala Wu Ji
but Dawa to Kuma ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada announced that your DUA has
been answered the both of you because Musa asked how to inset I
mean, both of your DUA has been answered, but that Allah says
festa Pima beat up right? Now the ultimate said, they're both
prophets. So what uprightness who they need to have, they're already
prophets, prophets can't commit sins, they can't disobey Allah. So
the uprightness the scholar said, is patience. A brightness here is
patients and the one MSA that even maybe they had expected now we're
going to get the answer right away. Allah says you've been
answered. Maybe today for this Tyron is going to fall and go down
and he's going to release the bunnies. So I eat because that's
the human nature. Allah tells you, you've been answered. So you think
Okay, tomorrow I'm gonna get the answer. Next day I'm going to see
the answer. 40 years, they spent 40 years dealing with federal loan
before Allah Tada drowned the foot out and free the money sorry, for
the years. We said before things like high school diploma, you wait
four years you get it, you don't even care about it, to be a doctor
eight years to do what to work. You you strive for eight years,
and what's the end result to work and people say Oh, my doctor, and
your wife can say well, I'm married to a doctor. And you can
go and propose to people and say I'm a doctor. That's the benefit
you worked eight years for that? You didn't You didn't even say yes
yet.
You worked eight years. So Why the rush? Now the rush is because
we're created with an agenda critical insane why Jhula all this
we have to change Allah creates us with habits, good and bad physical
and character traits, physical traits and character traits that
are bad so that we can develop and the sign of our develop is
changing them. The number one Allah subhanaw taala says the
human beings number one trait is his Mr. Magic. He's rushing they
say hydro Raja hydrogel Elijah, the like the menstruation of men.
What makes them not think straight, is rushing? Uh, he wants
his answer tomorrow. Right? And here we have Prophet Musa and
Harun and it's the slavery of Benny's, right? They're being
whipped, they're being hit. This is the worst thing possible. And
he's the best man possible. And frown is the worst person
possible. And Allah gave them 40 years. 40 years you have to
develop. You have to transform and Allah has wisdoms and why? He
gives His answer when he gives it. So the key in this dua, in this
matter of DA is that you should not ever feel that Allah is not
going to answer you. Because time is passing. That's the key here.
That's the total theme that we're doing here. The encouragement here
is that one year pass
Since two years passes, eight years path, 10 years pass, you
still keep it going. Why? Because Allah commanded you so because the
Prophet said, that's the only thing that you have to do, you're
only cardinal sin that you do not will not be answered as you give
up on it. Now, once you go through this in life, with a matter, let's
say a single matter that's been bothering you, and you went
through it, and after 15 years, your DUA was answered, what kind
of person you become, you become somebody who knows things take
time, and you become someone who will constantly persevere in other
things. So Allah taught you a character trait through this one
incident and that's why having desires is good. Having a desire
having ambitions, it's a good thing, because in getting them
from Allah subhanaw taala from their source, you're gonna learn a
lot.
