moon. And
my dear brothers and sisters let us dive again into Allah's book,
this time to the children of Israel shortly after the
destruction of the temple by the tyrant never could nIESR.
The tyrant never could nIESR had destroyed the temple of the
children of Israel. After the bene SR II
had gotten away from their lords path and started to steal from one
another. They started to commit Zina and started to cut corners in
their prayers. Allah azza wa jal sent them a tyrant. And Allah says
we tame wrongdoers with other wrongdoers. Why one wrongdoer? We
raise him up against another wrongdoer. And this is how the
world works. wrongdoers are always exacting justice against other
wrongdoers, and then another wrongdoer will come and exact
justice upon him. And this is the way of the world.
Shortly thereafter, the children of Israel
for exiled, spread out living in what they call the diaspora,
living in the diaspora, which means scattered, they have no
home. They're homeless, living as minorities under pagans. One of
them decided to go and look at this great place the temple. He
went to Jerusalem
and according to indicate here, it was his theme, Ezekiel, in another
opinion, atomia Jeremiah, great prophets that were not mentioned
the Quran, men whom man causes men whom Casa Sneha maleic one men
home men, lamb, Naxos, homolytic, some of the prophets of Allah, we
told you their stories in the Quran, and others we did not not
all the prophets are in the Quran. And yet the orlimar have looked
through the history and determined Ezekiel was a prophet Jeremiah was
a prophet according to Emeka theory.
He then sat and he wandered around, thinking this is where
this is what God used to be. This is what Solomon built his
predecessors. This is what they built, and now it's all in ruins.
There's nothing there.
Elka the marala Korea, we're here we're at when Allah Allah, Allah
azza wa jal
saw his skill or whoever this man is, was Ezekiel.
He saw that he went there longing for the capital city of God. And
he observed it and he wept, looking at destruction of barren
land.
Allah azza wa jal gave us a verse for this entire story in Surah,
Tim Bacara at the end of students at Bacara he says Elka the Mara
Allah Korea team, we're here we are to another oroshi have call
and he had the level Bad Demo.
He saw that all the walls of the temple were destroyed, everything
is barren.
And he thought to himself how will it ever return to its state of
glory and dominance? And the glory that a Muslim seeks and is
actually Allah he will era surely he will in many, glory is not for
us. The glory that a believer wants is to see an A Kalamata
Allah here and earlier, that the word of Allah is Most High.
That the city in which Allah is worshipped, is the most glorious
city out of a glorification of Allah azza wa jal. This is what we
want. We don't glorify ourselves.
Nations when they go and build a big building, they're just
glorifying themselves through the building.
But the people of Allah
will make use of them shall
Allah, the believer sign of the believer He glorifies the symbols
of Allah azza wa jal, he doesn't glorify himself. We are but
workers and we're glorifying our Lord. Allah azza wa jal then
caused Ezekiel to sleep to take a nap.
When he took a nap, and he tied his mule and he put his food and
drink next to him.
He took a long nap, and he woke up at the end of the day.
Fermat Allah who met at
some of Atha then he asked him, this, he's a prophet Allah speaks
directly to him. He said to him, come loveth how have you How long
have you slept?
The Prophet replied, Yeoman. Oh, Baba Yom the day or just part of
the day. He slept around the whole time. He woke up around Maghrib
time.
He looked up however, he saw his mule his donkey
was bones. But he looked further.
And he saw Jerusalem jumping.
One day of sleep. He saw Jerusalem jumping filled, the temple was
rebuilt. People were worshipping, buying and selling was taking
place children were running across the streets. What was what
happened?
Why is his mule dead? And the city is jumping up again. alive and
well.
He says Allah told him no. You have slept 100 years
100 years you have slept.
Wonder ala Tomica wasabi Kalamata Sana now another proof look at
your food and drink. This is still your food and drink from 100 years
ago Allah preserved it but the mule died and the city is alive
well in Niger alaka I utterly nurse wonder Ellen a llama cape
and on says we're filming next to her LACMA. He then said, now your
head is alive. There's life in your head. Look now to your arms.
Look now, to to your feet. Look at your donkey. Allah brought it all
back to life for him so he could see resurrection in front of his
own eyes. The same exact way Prophet Ibrahim asked Allah how
does the you bring the dead back to life? How do you bring the dead
back to life? He's Allah told him get four birds chop them up and
put them on different mountaintop, then call them to you to yourself,
and you'll see them all coming together.
This prophet was able to see this. And more importantly, he was able
to see that once again, Allah resurrected the city of Allah, the
lessons from this are so many.
The first lesson is that in this dunya, Nothing stays the same,
nothing stays the same. You are guaranteed failure. If you do one
thing, expect things to say the same
dua level minimum of
a statement. This the stagnation of the Situ of a scenario upon one
scenario is impossible. It has a rhyme to it, though I would have
minimal.
Things will always change. The people who fail in this life who
don't succeed in this life are the people who are always thinking
back and wishing things were the same because there was a good
moment in the past. Well ask yourself, Where did this good
moment come from? It didn't come from nostalgia. It came from
action. You are a person of action. And then a good moment
happened. A good decade happened. A good few years happened
relationships were built. Eman was increasing.
Your health was there. Your your dunya was in a fine position. How
did this all happen? You think that you can put a formula to it
you can never put a formula to success or failure in this world.
In this world. Allah has made success and failure doula Boehner
come. It's a doula a doula means it goes around. It goes around.
And it's not by anyone's choice when they say Coolio, Minho
officiating, every day, Allah is in an affair. What does that mean?
That means your follow up will work for Laquan he raises some
people up and he lowers other people. Sometimes you think and
you look wow. So and so used to be the dog. Now I don't even hear his
name. And so
So he used to be a lowly person who used to catch up with the
group and no one really cared. Now he's a dog
what happened
this world This dunya is a doula you go up and you go down what's
the solution has an inverse?
