If a person makes drop properly and does exactly what the Prophet

00:00:03 --> 00:00:07

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam teaches us on how to do it, you

00:00:07 --> 00:00:10

will transform as a human being. And one of the things that's going

00:00:10 --> 00:00:13

to transform you as a human being is that you are going to learn

00:00:13 --> 00:00:17

perseverance, perseverance and persistence is a precondition of

00:00:17 --> 00:00:22

dua, and oftentimes Allah subhanaw taala withholds his answer from

00:00:22 --> 00:00:26

you only to grow and to develop your perseverance. There's only

00:00:26 --> 00:00:29

one way to learn it. And it is through actual real life being

00:00:30 --> 00:00:31

deprived of what you want.

00:00:40 --> 00:00:44

Here the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam gives you the number one

00:00:44 --> 00:00:47

most important positive precondition positive

00:00:47 --> 00:00:50

preconditioning, meaning something you have to do, there's only one

00:00:50 --> 00:00:54

truly positive precondition for da, and there's one negative one,

00:00:54 --> 00:00:58

the negative one mentioned it earlier. You make sure your wealth

00:00:58 --> 00:01:00

that you earn is halal. The food you eat is halal. That's like

00:01:00 --> 00:01:03

negative. In other words, avoid the haram. That's how it's

00:01:03 --> 00:01:07

negative. Now the positive one is in this hadith and Ebihara, the

00:01:07 --> 00:01:10

Allah which Allah and not us, will allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,

00:01:11 --> 00:01:14

the Prophet peace be upon him said, you will get your answer,

00:01:14 --> 00:01:19

provided you don't rush, Mata myalgia they said, O Messenger of

00:01:19 --> 00:01:24

Allah, what is this? stagette What is this rushett Prophet peace be

00:01:24 --> 00:01:28

upon him said, the person says, I made dua, and I may draw and I

00:01:28 --> 00:01:31

tried so hard, and I didn't get an answer. So he quits Satan, the

00:01:31 --> 00:01:35

Musa and Satan, the heroine on the very first night that Prophet Musa

00:01:35 --> 00:01:38

alayhis salam arrived back into Egypt. He was commanded go to

00:01:38 --> 00:01:43

town, warn him and tell him to free the Benissa so Prophet Musa

00:01:43 --> 00:01:46

sat before that meeting, and he made dua with how to insane me

00:01:46 --> 00:01:51

next to him. He made a long draw for toe Philip. Now he's going to

00:01:51 --> 00:01:56

face not only the tyrant of his era, somebody who has a crime

00:01:56 --> 00:02:01

against him, which is the killing of the Egyptian soldier has many

00:02:01 --> 00:02:04

blessings that He could say you grew up in my house I raised you

00:02:04 --> 00:02:08

and all these other things. So it's gonna be very awkward this

00:02:08 --> 00:02:13

meeting. On top of being being the biggest tyrant in the world, and

00:02:13 --> 00:02:18

ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada immediately after they said, Amin, Kala Wu Ji

00:02:18 --> 00:02:23

but Dawa to Kuma ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada announced that your DUA has

00:02:23 --> 00:02:27

been answered the both of you because Musa asked how to inset I

00:02:27 --> 00:02:31

mean, both of your DUA has been answered, but that Allah says

00:02:31 --> 00:02:36

festa Pima beat up right? Now the ultimate said, they're both

00:02:36 --> 00:02:40

prophets. So what uprightness who they need to have, they're already

00:02:40 --> 00:02:44

prophets, prophets can't commit sins, they can't disobey Allah. So

00:02:44 --> 00:02:48

the uprightness the scholar said, is patience. A brightness here is

00:02:48 --> 00:02:53

patients and the one MSA that even maybe they had expected now we're

00:02:53 --> 00:02:55

going to get the answer right away. Allah says you've been

00:02:55 --> 00:03:00

answered. Maybe today for this Tyron is going to fall and go down

00:03:00 --> 00:03:03

and he's going to release the bunnies. So I eat because that's

00:03:03 --> 00:03:07

the human nature. Allah tells you, you've been answered. So you think

00:03:07 --> 00:03:09

Okay, tomorrow I'm gonna get the answer. Next day I'm going to see

00:03:09 --> 00:03:15

the answer. 40 years, they spent 40 years dealing with federal loan

00:03:15 --> 00:03:19

before Allah Tada drowned the foot out and free the money sorry, for

00:03:19 --> 00:03:23

the years. We said before things like high school diploma, you wait

00:03:23 --> 00:03:26

four years you get it, you don't even care about it, to be a doctor

00:03:26 --> 00:03:31

eight years to do what to work. You you strive for eight years,

00:03:31 --> 00:03:34

and what's the end result to work and people say Oh, my doctor, and

00:03:34 --> 00:03:37

your wife can say well, I'm married to a doctor. And you can

00:03:37 --> 00:03:40

go and propose to people and say I'm a doctor. That's the benefit

00:03:40 --> 00:03:42

you worked eight years for that? You didn't You didn't even say yes

00:03:42 --> 00:03:43

yet.

00:03:44 --> 00:03:49

You worked eight years. So Why the rush? Now the rush is because

00:03:49 --> 00:03:53

we're created with an agenda critical insane why Jhula all this

00:03:53 --> 00:03:57

we have to change Allah creates us with habits, good and bad physical

00:03:57 --> 00:04:00

and character traits, physical traits and character traits that

00:04:00 --> 00:04:03

are bad so that we can develop and the sign of our develop is

00:04:03 --> 00:04:07

changing them. The number one Allah subhanaw taala says the

00:04:07 --> 00:04:12

human beings number one trait is his Mr. Magic. He's rushing they

00:04:12 --> 00:04:18

say hydro Raja hydrogel Elijah, the like the menstruation of men.

00:04:18 --> 00:04:21

What makes them not think straight, is rushing? Uh, he wants

00:04:21 --> 00:04:24

his answer tomorrow. Right? And here we have Prophet Musa and

00:04:24 --> 00:04:27

Harun and it's the slavery of Benny's, right? They're being

00:04:27 --> 00:04:30

whipped, they're being hit. This is the worst thing possible. And

00:04:30 --> 00:04:33

he's the best man possible. And frown is the worst person

00:04:33 --> 00:04:38

possible. And Allah gave them 40 years. 40 years you have to

00:04:38 --> 00:04:42

develop. You have to transform and Allah has wisdoms and why? He

00:04:42 --> 00:04:47

gives His answer when he gives it. So the key in this dua, in this

00:04:47 --> 00:04:51

matter of DA is that you should not ever feel that Allah is not

00:04:51 --> 00:04:54

going to answer you. Because time is passing. That's the key here.

00:04:54 --> 00:04:58

That's the total theme that we're doing here. The encouragement here

00:04:58 --> 00:04:59

is that one year pass

00:05:00 --> 00:05:03

Since two years passes, eight years path, 10 years pass, you

00:05:03 --> 00:05:07

still keep it going. Why? Because Allah commanded you so because the

00:05:07 --> 00:05:09

Prophet said, that's the only thing that you have to do, you're

00:05:09 --> 00:05:12

only cardinal sin that you do not will not be answered as you give

00:05:12 --> 00:05:16

up on it. Now, once you go through this in life, with a matter, let's

00:05:16 --> 00:05:19

say a single matter that's been bothering you, and you went

00:05:19 --> 00:05:23

through it, and after 15 years, your DUA was answered, what kind

00:05:23 --> 00:05:26

of person you become, you become somebody who knows things take

00:05:26 --> 00:05:30

time, and you become someone who will constantly persevere in other

00:05:30 --> 00:05:34

things. So Allah taught you a character trait through this one

00:05:34 --> 00:05:38

incident and that's why having desires is good. Having a desire

00:05:38 --> 00:05:41

having ambitions, it's a good thing, because in getting them

00:05:42 --> 00:05:45

from Allah subhanaw taala from their source, you're gonna learn a

00:05:45 --> 00:05:46

lot.
