Have you ever recorded a message remember last
and probably the right place to
go to scale
a lot and still
be having
prayer and delight charity is a proof of faith patients have it
brightness
on your path or against you all morning South themselves they're
out there by yourself to free yourself alright so here's a very
important that the first of all
hadith is there because it says cleanliness has happened
if we don't do are caught up in our will do and bustle correctly,
you're losing all your your half of your deen which is a prayer.
But one of the points here is charity. Charity is a proof. What
does that mean? It means that somewhat a lot of times people
inside themselves question themselves, they see themselves do
actions. And after they do that action, they ask, how could I have
done them? Am I even a Muslim? Or am I a hypocrite? Am I a Muslim?
Because I'm part of a Muslim family. Right? Is that why or I
became Muslim? I entered it to start practicing the deen in the
past or even someone entered into Islam converted into Islam.
Because it was a kick in the past and I don't even believe it
anymore. When you do a really bad D, you start thinking like this,
right? People think like people think, do I? Am I even a Muslim
anymore?
The Prophet peace be upon him, give us an answer. If you believe
in Allah and the Last Day, take your money out and give it to
someone poor, and say, Oh Allah, I'm giving this as a proof that I
am a believer. Nothing else will convince ALLAH SubhanA which I'm
not praying is good. Saying that you believe this good. Charity is
the proof. Why? Because prayer is good. It's time. Just take some
time. That's all it takes and a little bit of effort. But the
twin of your soul, if you're presenting your soul to God, the
twin of the soul is money and mellows show people roads the
same. It's the same money is the twin of the soul. If you want to
show Allah that your soul is for him give money to the poor,
to the poor, to anything given money, even if it is small amounts
every box that I see I put in $1 every poor person I'd say 25 cents
every one of these emails I get, give them $10 Sign up for just
give charity charity
will we'll undo some sins that nothing else will undo. There are
certain sins we do.
Allah's Anger is upon us.
No matter how much total we make, because anger is upon us except
charity. As soon as you give charity, right? To charity without
anyone knowing, not charity and telling everyone all right.
Charity without anyone knowing you have taken a bucket of water and
put out the hellfire.
You put out the Hellfire that your sins. Create, right? So charity
without anyone knowing this, why some of the best ways to give
charity to the bank, pull out cash, put it in an envelope, okay,
and then distribute it to whomever you need to distribute it for.
Right the Navy so itself, put under their door, whatever, some
way of secret charity. It's not really charity. Right? It's not
100% charity, I come to someone and say here's $500 why I lost
$500 Again, someone who owes me them. And now he owes me at least
every time he's gonna give me more respect. So it's not 100% charity
if they know that you're the one who gave it to them. That's why
the problem is you might have said secret charity puts out the
Hellfire created by your deeds. Alright, so that's the key secret
charity here is the key patients is brightness, live.
Again, there are some sins.
All sins are temptation.
But there are temptations that put out
Have a white of Amen in the heart. What is a man? It's a fight in the
heart. That's what they describe me men. Now temptation destroys
this. The chief chip temptation is when a person looks lustfully at
another opposite gender, looking with lust is as if someone has
turned on a vacuum that is sucking out the Amen from your heart,
sucking it out completely.
And the Prophet peace be upon him said, Whatever acts upon it, you
start to act upon it, as you start to touch someone start to pitch
them, you start to talk to them. All right, and you start to move
on. It's as if someone like chopping a watermelon, chopping
out of water, when you take a knife and you tack on a
watermelon, what's going to happen, there's no resistance, the
watermelon just comes off. It's a very light comes off, just keeps
coming off until
a person actually commits to Zina right actually commits it at that
point. It says if all of their Eman * out of their heart.
One time Moses was sitting.
And they looked upon the people. And they saw behind the bush, a
black cloud rise.
And they said, Oh, Moses, how is it that a black cloud is coming
out of the earth into the sky? Moses. He said he didn't know
Allah that said, those are two people committed Zina, the Imad
that is there Amen. That was their faith.
Then Moses told the Sahaba said those two people committed Zina
behind the bush. And their Eman came out. So what is the solution
to such a person? He's no longer Muslim? No, the Prophet was asked,
Will a Muslim cut what a believer commit sinner? He said, hits the
lever makes mistake and never makes mistakes. He said, What a
believer steal? He said, Yes, when a believer lie and said no. All
right, liberal would not lie, the believer will make sense. He's
still a believer. So it can be made a mistake, you can make up
for it. Or you can make up for it. Now, a lot of worship and a lot of
charity. Because now all the Eman that you built up, you look like
you're a small thing, six feet, five feet tall, whatever. But
inside you allemande every thought upset is the universe. And you
could have had a big beautiful universe with many suns, moons and
stars. And those are your good deeds. Those are those are your
that's your Amen. You have a big Mountain of Faith inside your
heart. When you did Zina, what did you do? You hit the reset button.
There's nothing there anywhere. Right? There's nothing there. Like
you plan on it. If you're on a computer, you wrote a big
document, a long document that someone comes by you didn't
there's no save button, you can't permanently save your event.
Right? It's it's up in the air all the time. Someone comes by yanks
the plug out or pushes the reset button on your computer, you lost
the whole document. Right? You lost your whole document. So what
do you do? You just sit there and cry and go to *? No, you plug
the computer back in and you rebuild it? Did you think it never
happened in the time of the Prophet peace be fine, and that
people did these wrong? Do them all the time, from the time of the
Prophet peace be until now. At the time of the Prophet there was a
man he drank all the time that used to get whipped.
Alright, he drank it with the sahaba. Kirsten, one time.
The Prophet said, The shaytaan is already beating him you don't He
doesn't need more enemies.
Right? But they said Oh, Mr. Will every time he's drinking. And he
never learns the profits. And all I know about him is that he loves
God. And
so what does that man do? Every time he drinks, they sit there and
cry and then just go to *? And just say, Well, I'm going to *
anyway. Let me drink more. No, you regroup yourself and you rebuild.
And you hope you die upon one of your rebuilding process. So a
Muslim today, a moment today will question himself and go crazy. How
could I have committed the sins you commit this sense? And we're
all committing them? Because the temptation is around us. Like a
Python. Like a Python surrounded us like the Python. When you sin.
You shake it off, you wake up the next day, and you get back at the
work of building your paradise and putting out your hellfire. You put
out your Hellfire by giving charity.
The city folk can give charity all the time. And I'll tell you from
experience having lived in London, you see no less than a dozen
homeless if not two dozen a day. walking to the bus, stop walking
to the school walk into the supermarket. You see homeless
everywhere.
So we were instructed
been taught to break a 20 at the beginning of every week into
nickel into five cents, 10 cents and 25 cents. Break it at the
beginning of every week, what is 20 pounds going to cost?
And break it, keep that change with you in your pocket. Keep it
in a jar every day go out, spill some change in your pocket. Every
homeless you see, you give them some change. I'm telling them by
the end of one day, by the end of one day, you felt all the people
who are doing this testified that they felt like they were floating
as if an angel was with them all day long. All day long. Okay, why
this is how much Allah loves charity. We don't have charity
today.
Even when you put in the box, you don't looking at it human beings
face and the human being doesn't make dua for you. And we were also
taught when you see that drunk
some guy in a stupid in London is filled with chronic triggers is a
guy in a stupor is making no sense. You put a nickel in his
head, all of a sudden he says God bless you, son. All of a sudden,
why do you say that? How could he say that he's drunk?
Ours ship told us you should know that Allah speaking.
Allah caused him to say that that's Allah and His angels
speaking for him at that time. So the dua of these people, I don't
care if he's a Muslim, he's a druggie. He's a drunk when you
give it someone sadaqa, and they make a dua for you. That dua Allah
sees, and Allah knows how you made them feel, and he takes that
happiness, and he saves it for you. When you're down, he puts he
puts it on your heart. Now charity for us, what are we going to do?
We got to find ways to give charity, the charity of a smile to
people, the charity of uplifting their hearts, the charity of
giving even family members, giving family members doing a chore for
family members doing a chore for a stranger. All of this is charity
to and it will wipe out those sins, wipe it out, Allah sang,
someone does it wrong. You wake up next morning, it takes some snow
off of your neighbor's driveway. Right? That's an act of charity.
And no, you could earn money for them.
It's an act of charity. So acts of charity are not just putting a
nickel in the hand of a homeless, it could be anything. Now, the
charity puts is a proof of your faith. And it blots out bad deeds,
but also
better than the doing a sin and I have been given charity. And by
the way, if you plan it, it doesn't count. If you plan it, it
doesn't count. Okay? This is why, you know, it has to be
spontaneous. It has to be that I accidentally sent and then I get
charged not. Oh, this is great news, sin all day, and save up
money and give it up. No, that doesn't work, obviously. But
better than sitting and giving charity is being patient in the
first place. And giving charity. This is why the Prophet said
suffer. Patients is brightness. Why is it brightness? You retain
your faith? Not only retain it, but the pressure of temptation.
It's like a polish on your face. All right, what is what is
pressure due to coal? If you take coal, and you pressurize coal,
what do you get in this world, you get a diamond. That's what a
diamond is. The diamond is worthless. It's coal, the coal
that you put in your grill, and a diamond the same size. If you
actually looked at what they are, the material is identical. It's
carbon. It's nothing else. It's not gold, it's carbon. The only
reason why a diamond is precious is because how rare it is. And
also because in the old world, you'd never seen people trading
with diamonds, it's gold or so.
But now it's sort of sort of became like a, they convince
people that diamond is worthwhile because it's precious and you
can't get married without De Beers is what made diamonds valuable.
But go try to resell a diamond ring.
It's not something you resell, you can't resell no one's gonna care
about the diamonds. They care about the gold. But the point is,
diamond is charcoal the same thing. But diamond withstood the
pressure. And it became absolutely perfectly crystal clear. Whereas
the charcoal is not completely opaque. So this is the believer.
This is what the believer is. If you withstand the pressure of
temptation, you become a diamond. And people think why is Allah
testing me? Why can I just be a good Muslim in the corner? Why is
Allah testing me with temptation? Because that's how you become who
you become. Right? And some people think I have sinned. I'm not worth
it. Many people are very ignorant. Right? They're ignorant. You
They don't know Allah's ways. There are many sins, Allah will
corner you into committing, and you committed. Now you're guilty.
Now you're going to help.
But Allah only did that.
Because only after you saw yourself committing that sin, are
you going to get up and do something good? If you were not
committing that sin, you would be sit there self satisfied with
yourself.
So many times a sin is the cause of higher ranks and the sign of
Allah subhanaw taala. It's a cause. It's not a good thing. But
it causes something good. How many times are there people in their
lives? They had such fatal accidents in their lives, a very
bad thing happened to them, what did they do as a result, they turn
their life around. Now an accident is out of your control. A lot of
times it's in your control. People get addicted to things all the
time. As soon as that happens, as a result of that collapse into an
addiction. They change their life forever. If he never got
collapsed, because of that sin, he would have been sitting on his
sofa satisfied with himself. So sins are also things that are used
from Eliza to get people to change in order to get people to change.
So we have to have wisdom, you have to understand why Allah
things happen and why Allah allows things to happen. So whenever an
individual all of us, all right, when we collapse, and we all do,
we all do, don't think that's it? No, a, you have to still have two
choices.
You still have a chance to rectify yourself. And secondly, you got to
have wisdom. A lot of times Allah allows us to collapse. Okay, he
even sets us up for collapse. Right? Many times people say I did
this wrong, but it's as if I was set up, I had no other. There was
there was so many problems around me that I had no strike. I was set
up for this. You feel that way? Maybe it's true. You're still
guilty. But now what are you going to do? This is the cause to wake
you up. Get yourself out of that. Alright, so sins oftentimes are
causes for that. But of course, Southern patients have to fight
your knifes. You have to
contradict your egos. If your ego tells you to do something, you got
to learn to contradict every day, once a day minimum. If your ego
says give me that donor, say no. If your ego says sleep another
five minutes, say no. If your ego says let's turn on the show, like
because you know what you're going to see. Right? Can be hot off, say
no to your ego. If your ego says play video games for another half
an hour say no. Okay? Always say no to your ego once a day. Say no
to your ego.
Anyone here see everyone's seen Lord of the Rings here.
Alright, you've seen Lord of the Rings. Who has not seen Lord of
the Rings.
All right, you can either have seen it or not seen.
Okay, I'm assuming most people you've seen Lord of the Rings. You
know, the guy Gollum. in Lord of the Rings. That's what the eagle
is.
What is the final conclusion with God? You can't trust him. Right?
You cannot trust God. God comes with a good face. And then it
comes with a nasty face. He's like,
a Gemini or schizophrenic. He's really good. Right? And he's you
think he's like a poor creature? What a victim. But then he's
really evil. Okay, the knifes that is a very good example of the ego.
And the author JRR Tolkien. He's a scholar of religion, he's kept his
Christian
secret. So it could very well be he purposely made Gollum to
represent the ego.
You can never trust your ego. Don't trust it. You gotta exist
with it because it's you, but never trusted and every day. Give
it a smack. Every day they really go smack. You'd have to give you
your smack don't just, you don't let Gollum roam free and give them
whatever you want. You put them on a chain and every day take your
club and hit him once so he knows not to move on. So fight your egos
a fight you're nervous.
All right, let's keep reading until the food comes.
Second paragraph one six.
Allah considers people who do not pray to be almost like
disbelievers.
He saw some said humbly turn to Allah be consciousness, establish
the prayer and do not be like those who associate others with
God.
It is known that people outside the three Arabic faith Judaism,
Abraham, Abraham, so Abrahamic faiths, Judaism, Christianity and
Islam do not observable prayers to Allah. Therefore, when once
someone stops, stops praying, he becomes in this perspective
No different procedures. This is why the Prophet saw it was a loop
said the difference between us and the disbelievers is the prayer.
Also the province although some said the first thing, the first
thing one has asked about on the Day of Judgment is the prayer. The
Most High says, be very vigilant with keeping yourself up,
especially the middle ground and stand up for Allah with humility.
The Prophet SAW, Selim explained, the middle prayer is awesome. One
time the Muslims are praying, and some pagans can find them to
attack them. But instead they said, observing how they pray. One
of them said, If you ever if you had attacked them in prayer, you
could have you could have defeated
one of them said they have a prayer after this that is dear to
them, that is dear to them and their fathers and sons. This needs
shows that even the pagans know how much awesome prayer was
important to the Muslims. The Prophet solos have spoken about
people who pray awesomely the prayer that hypocrite he waits
until the sun gets yellow, near sunset, when he gets up in peaks
and peaks for
pecks for barely remembering Allah. Thus, the point of Salah is
is it is engender a feeling? Isn't ginger feeling your heart that you
weren't horrible luck? If you stand in that feeling is not there
it is okay. You keep trying. Allah rewards those who tries even if he
fails, even if he fails, but Allah does not leave a person to try
sincerely, except that He rewards will they seek for answers if they
strive in our in our seat, we shall guide them entire paths,
observing the prayer properly because once again what they need
and even what they want, successful indeed are those who
have who are humbled with their Soul love. Allah also says to me
and your family to the parent and be very to be very patient with
this. We do not ask you to provide we will provide for you the final
success will be decided piety. Alright, so here.
Success is one of the results of prayer on time, profitable do
proper shahada and proper Salam on time will lead to success. Now, if
someone's doing this and they're still not finding success, it may
simply be that the need for focus in the prayer and the need of more
prayer. Okay, so to prove ourselves to
observing the prayer properly, because once again,
the above verse also shows that people tend to be lazy about
prayer. Thus, one was to exert effort in the matter and not be
lazy. Further is not enough to do this yourself. You cannot allow
your friends and family to take prayer lightly. One must give
advice and encourage them to problem solve. So taught them true
friends, remind them remind each other friends. All right, friends.
Okay?
Friends, the sign of friendship and the people you should be
around, okay? Are the people who upkeep their prayer, if you're
friends with someone, skipping the prayer, are lazy about the prayer?
Okay?
Just gotta say, wait.
They're more harm than good, until you can influence them. All right,
a proper friend will not allow another friend to skip the prayer,
or be lazy about the prayer.
And the family, your family's. You got to be the influence on them to
make sure they're preying on the household that preys on time. No
matter what calamity comes upon that household, there's going to
be a limit to the destruction that could come upon people. Now,
calamity is coming upon households all the time. It's coming upon
individuals and individuals are part of families, okay? And so
it's going to touch someone else in the family. You're lucky if it
doesn't touch you, but households are being tested all the time.
Okay. And if you want to, at least put a limit to the destruction,
that a calamity could come upon a person. Be serious about the
prayer, five steps, kick out.
People who pray sincerely to bear more difficulties than those who
do not pray. Allah says, Seek those seeking, seek help your
patients in prayer. Thus, prayer is something that makes one more
patient. In another verse, Allah says, will certainly Salam brings
to an end to immortality, evil deeds and aggression.
Whoever prays sincerely, light enters his or her heart, and they
thus become more serene, serene, satisfied, and at peace with
themselves. They therefore have no need to seek a world pleasures nor
that they get anxious for the wrong reasons and in the wrong
way, making them aggress against others. This is the virtue of no
alpha and night prayers, increasing your search to
increasing your night prayers. Okay, all of these things. Not
really the Sahaba they did not do many of the Sahaba did not do any
worship.
Except there were books. There were books to read, right even the
Quran
was not enough. There only worship was the prayer. So perfect it make
your search too long. Make your searches along. Alright? Make no
up, discipline yourself. One of my favorite Hadith says that Allah
subhanaw taala asked the Messenger of Allah. Prophet said I had a
dream, right and this dream two angels woke me up and said, and
then Allah and said Allah wants to speak to you, that Allah subhanho
wa Taala asked me, what is it that the highest angels debate about
what is the dispute amongst the highest angels? So even the
highest angels, they have a debate, have different opinions.
The Prophet said, I have no knowledge
that Allah acid fast and three times he said, I have no
knowledge, that instead Allah put his right hand on my back and I
felt the coolness and the knowledge of the heaven and the
earth entered my heart. Then Allah asked me again, messenger, what
are the highest angels debate about? They said, the debate about
what deeds make someone close to Allah the most? And what deeds
remove sins the most? Right? He said, What is the answer? He said,
the answer is the deed that removes your sins the most is will
do when you don't like it.
Will do when you do not like it and will do it and McCurry will do
when you hate it, when you hate to make will do. So what is Allah
saying here? He recognizes sometimes you don't want to make
and most people don't pray, because they don't want to make
will do. Will do is harder than prayer. He didn't say great. No
will do, because will do is harder than prayer. Everyone wants to
receive, everyone will come to receive divine blessings. But the
divine when the divine tells him first fight your ego. No one wants
to do that. No one wants to purify themselves. Receiving is the easy
part. Praying is the easy part of purifying ourselves is the hard
part. So we'll do a better wedding your feet at fetcher. Some people
have to make muscle before fetcher, making muscle before
fetcher. Know what kind of insane person you can asleep at 11
o'clock. 12 o'clock fetchers at six o'clock, you got to make a
muscle. Right? Well, you do it, you do it. All of that removes.
Now, what is the deed that most draws people up in the ranks?
Okay, two things, many steps to the mosque. Many steps to the
mosque when the angel is looking, and you're taking many steps to
get to the prayer that also remove sins for one step removed since
and the other step at a reward to your rank goes up. And then
waiting for the prayer. And especially after the prayer, I
mean, some of it have came. You wait until Aisha in the mosque for
you come early for Isha. And wait. So let's say Aisha 745.
Right. Most people common sense time it so that you walk through
the door at 744. Pray right away. Well, the intelligent person he's
going to say he's going to sell this hadith, waiting for the
prayer. So all come at 730 and wait 15 minutes,
all of that waiting, your rank is going up and your sins are coming
down. So these very simple deeds and the reason I love this idea so
much like everyone could do this. It's not I thought it's gonna be
reading this video or learning the city. I thought the Sheikh was
gonna say, going out and slaughtering the neck of the
infinite and you haven't even picked up a sword in your whole
life. Right? And you're never going to see a battlefield. I
thought that's what the answer was going to be. or donating for a
pill of gold. No, it turns out it's something every Muslim comes.
You don't have to go to it either. It's gonna come to you. Right?
It's gonna come to you fetcher is going to come to you and you're
going to have to make so these are the
things that remove any crease or keep going.
It is sent to the State of the Omo as a whole is reflected HOTCH. The
spiritual state of the region is reflected in the state of the
locality is reflected on Gemma the state of the family as reflected a
reflected in your chakra at the mock Isha prayer at the mosque
because family should be going together and our time in place at
least once a week. A Saddam Hussein used to attend with the
public solar so let's see afterwards.
If there was no guna in the messenger soil and so on would
send them home with avocado sponsible with whatever already
been went home. Thus, one of the traits of an upgrade family is
that they go to the Minister to get finally state
The leaders of the families the men is reflected in Patrick's man.
All right, here's something very important, very unique. One time,
there was a guy who said
so and so he rips me off, he ripped me off.
He does wrong, he does this wrong, does this one was just wrong
commits this in this in this in this and is always at the mosque.
Right? What's the point?
And the person in front of him said, it was a very great point.
Because all those sins will be wiped out by his time in the
mosque, he's gonna end up at the end of the day, at least breaking
even at the very least. Unlike the stuff the other person who thinks
he's clever, he says yet another guy said, Yeah, I do all that too.
But I don't pretend to be in the mosque. Well, you're gonna end up
with all those sins just like he is. But you don't have anything to
wash it away. The Prophet peace be upon him said
the one who the prayer is like washing away
the sins from the previous prayer. So you prayed Mother, you did some
wrong things, you pray, what does he do? washes it away. Okay, as a
book Think. So, there is no assumption. There's no assumption
that the Muslim, the proper Muslim is the one who doesn't do any
wrong. Right? That's not the assumption. And there should be no
contradiction. People shouldn't say, Oh, he goes to the mosque. I
also know what he does.
When it's dark. I also know what he does at school, or I also know
what he does in his private time. What's the contradiction? That's
why he's coming to the mosque.
You're not coming to the mosque, if you're an angel, if you're an
angel, you don't have anything obligated on you. Right? That's
why we come to the mosque, we come to the mosque because of what we
did in the past. Or because of what we do when no one's looking.
That's why we come to get purified. Right? So people have
this concept. Like, if you're in the masjid, that means you're
perfect, or you're claiming to be perfect. Well, you're on the path
to perfection. It's not the case and it's never going to happen. So
people shouldn't have this contradiction. Or let's go to Lena
How would
you finish the last paragraph
started taking championship
match. Remember last year mentors that debase and five times a day,
department
or editor remember, clearly not
This is the life of like leaving
a fight at the very
end
one right after another watch
what happens
as long as they understand
when
one on one
with the producer, he's the governor of the canyons and each
one
of
us knows anything about some
of the failures and
successes.
Last thing I did my
father's body was terrified
that that disrespectful
are there
guarantees that allow paradise to those who do not?
Guarantee
you may miss them to their dice as
a problem.
As a side prayer,
just as water officers, what distinguishes us from the print is
our internet art and our attendance at late night and early
morning writers
statement. They miss the problem.
There were no like
Alright, so one of the best prayer in terms of its effects with a
lot,
of course is the good prayer in the mosque. And after that
immediately. Does the prayer alone in your room when no one sees you
are alone in your house and uncommonly quietly, most people
all right. Pray very quickly at home.
Prayer in the mosque is taken
in front of everyone they don't at all go home. They prayed in two
seconds. Okay, very quickly. Now why was this one of the reasons
prayer in the mosque is better. When you're praying behind the
EMF, you have no choice but
To pray perfectly because a map takes time. So you have no choice,
you can't rush. Secondly, you'd be too ashamed to rush. Even if
you're praying soon as on your own. The person next is taking
their time. You need to pray and you take your time, you're not
going to rush. The other reason why it's so important to pray in
the masjid is that when you pray in the masjid, you get to see
other believers worship. And you see that someone's doing
something, I'm not someone to make a DUA, I'm not someone that looks
very beautiful in their prayer, I need to be slow down to like they
are. So you encouraged by watching the worship of others. It's no
different than someone who goes to a gym, versus someone who lifts
weights at home. If you lift weights at home, eight, you'll
never know if you're doing it all. You won't be encouraged and you
won't learn anything new.
If you're at the gym, though, you're going to see other people
doing it right. You're going to be encouraged to do more because
they're doing and you're talking and see, you're going to learn
different techniques, different things to do from people. This is
why it's so much better, better for both men and women to pray in
the masjid. This thing about women not praying in the messaging.
The Prophet said it was better for women to pray at home. Okay. But
this was a time when women didn't go out at all. They didn't do
shopping, they didn't do anything in the era in which women are all
going out. This is from Asia, and the time when women are all
calling out, it is better for them to be in the messages. All right,
they should be in the message. So women are also encouraged to make
all the prayers as much as possible in the mosque. Okay. And
this is we take this from my issue because
I said knows the Hadith of the Prophet said his best Romans pray
in the house. But she used her judgment. She said, What if I'm
getting more effective in the mosque, I'm gonna go to the
messenger. One time, all martyrs wife
was going to the messenger and Omar said,
The Prophet said is best to pray in your home. So I want you to
pray at home. And his wife said, You can't stop me from coming to
the message. We used to pray in the masjid in the prophets time.
We're not going to stop because it's almost okay. Even in your
time, we're going to bring the message. Okay. So she answered him
better. Alright, so these women new are we are women, Muslim
women, though. Here's where they get clever. They get clever,
because it suits they're lazy. Because you know, when the
brothers are all going to Asia, the women say, Oh, come on, it's
better to pray at home. Okay, sit at home to pray at home, not
watching TV at home. Because you know, they're not praying.
And you know, the time that you're praying is much longer and more
beneficial than their time. What do they do know the prayer takes
two seconds, then they're back online, or then they're back in
front of the TV, or gossiping on the phone. Okay, so women, I'm
telling I can say this because I know that men as well, when they
stay home, they don't do any better. The home was not made for
that unless you have a special room. That's like far away from
everything else that has like a double barn door. Right? And you
oriented it to look like a mosque. Even men so if men are like this,
I know women are like this too. If you're not going to the masjid
you're praying Aisha you're not even due to spear the ice cream is
out the TV is out something's gonna distract. Alright, so let's
or let's finish off
there
very
narrow down
what is the greatest thing in the prophesy?
Prayer. Prayer is
very nice.
And reform is a proper standard.
And as a scribe, they will do
on the Day of Resurrection what he would do
man's off
Alright, so, this heading is very important.
If a man meets a lot negligent of the prayer, Allah will not pay
attention to his other virtues. Why? We don't judge what's good.
Allah tells us what he wants. We don't have to we don't judge our
judgment is meaningful. So no one could say I gave all charity all
day. I did so much good deeds all day. But I skipped prayer. Allah
should accept it. Right? You don't do that. Allah decides not us.
When you go to a bank, the bank will tell you what's acceptable ID
to open up a bank
Right, you can't say I'm her cousin. Right? The bank, if you're
the bank manager himself, you have to see it, you have to show it.
Okay? So we can't, we can't put ourselves as the judges. Allah has
his ways. He judges. And we do this too. We do this to how many
moms wives, okay, you do something wrong. You've come back. Big Book,
this flower, this doesn't do anything. Right? How many times
has a woman upset a man tries to pleaser with
a big flower? 3999 you can buy flowers, okay, that's not gonna do
it. I want to see action, right? I want to see a change, okay? You
can buy me chocolate all day, because I know you read that in a
magazine. It's not going to do it. Okay. So people behave like this
all the time. So we behave like this. Allah is selected. If the
prayer is out there, he doesn't want to see anything else. Or
let's go to the next reader don't pick it up.
After the affirmation of disunity, no duty law imposed on the Create
Features in here. And then
we get toward renewables where at any given been clear to him, that
this wouldn't become a form of worship or tables, as it is each
and then reforms are where some bowing and prostrating themselves
and standing upright sitting on their heels. Anyone who
deliberately slips away or has forsaken the space, this is to
say, he has turned his back I mean, then I did that risk of
having a stripped away from him of Moraira that if someone makes his
ablution and does it well, that sets out with the intention of
performing the prayer he is already in the state of prayer
while on his way to it. With each two steps he takes a good deed is
added to his record and a bad deed is erased. So do not linger when
you hear the call to where one part is for the masjid will get
the greatest reward. They ask why is that and the extent because of
all the steps he had six of all man's actions the first to be
examined on the day of resurrection will be the prayer
that is found to be completed will be accepted of him along with the
rest of his works with if it is found wanting, it will be rejected
along with the rest of the fees and profits.
sighs So wherever you command your family to perform the prayer, but
then Allah will provide you a blessing to receive capital.
It's also said that when Allah sees an entire family making us a
lot together, he prevents 70 tribulations from coming upon the
family.
A scholar once said wonderful forms of prayer like a merchant
who did not start making a profit until we have covered all the
capital in the industry cement similar fashion one perform fair
and gets no credit for
scores supererogatory extra devotions and until he is
discharged do you get stories where approximately 5% Stay when
it's time for prayer get up and extinguish the fire and you have a
handle for yourself. You meant to brace the sins you approved
between this square and the last one. All right, Mary, you want to
finish off that last chapter.
In the process, I want to let you set up children to create like
seven, but then to begin to begin enforcing it at age 10. It is so
that when a child reaches puberty, which will be after he uses then
they will be already the fair is obligately upon everything Muslim,
once they reach
belaga religion we ready are maturity. There are no other
conditions obligation is lifted from one when they are out of
consciousness such as in a coma or in a state of faith. For example,
if one loses consciousness during the time, they have yet to pray,
then they wake up three days later during Asia time. What makeup
parser and then
Alright, so Lulu, which is puberty.
And after these two conditions upon a Muslim, if he is bad
meaning is in the state of puberty is past puberty, and he's off ism
is meant to be seen and sound with it. Then the prayer is obligatory.
So Shola, that'll cover chapters one through four so we're on pace
now.
Show level pick it up. Anyone who has any comments or questions you
can ask now.
Bringing up
about a clarifying like measure is like a six right
do
sign up. Seven. Yeah. So are you saying that you should get up at
six do the prayer and not go back to bed till seven. That's what's
preferable whenever you get up for fetcher or there's
six 615 620 Most of the best ideal thing is to then stay up until
tell
Okay, that's the best thing to do. And then if you want to do above
and beyond after seven at 20 minutes that's when the sun is
rising. Great took us and then after that you've completed the
properties you want to set you get the reward of hatch which means it
will erase your best suits
just doing that way resistance and wake up beginning part of budget
right make vicar and stay on Hulu and stay in the same spot that's
the key the key is to make vicar
alright right. To get the reward of the hedge you're making zikr
you're listening to like karate on your headphones you're reading a
good book about the deed staying in the same spot staying in we'll
do okay and then after 20 minutes after Federer is out. Pray to us
we get through word of caution on any other day we can do this at
least stay awake stay awake until seven o'clock whenever but just
really quick regarding Isha so I know if you can pray to Vijay like
Like before, but let's suppose if you fall asleep around eight
o'clock
Yeah, like around like right before a show you fall asleep, or
even after I show like Isha is six o'clock right now. Because if I go
to sleep at eight, and then I get up in the middle of night and then
try to catch a shower when you try to your priggish I can
know wouldn't be too hard to do you have to put up pressure as
long as you catch him before
he goes into to invest time to sleep, like fell asleep and then a
two will suddenly discharge what is sort of what is said that it is
equivalent to double one sleep is if someone who sleeps after the
look the nap time. And right after ation very early in the night,
that sleep is they say and also from experience. It rejuvenates
the body, double the rate of normal. And then the opposite
would sleep actually hurts the body and makes you more tired,
drained asleep after Awesome. That's the worst,
then it's the best infection and then sleep after mother that sleep
sort of makes you a little bit more tired. Definitely after US or
in the public sector X ray. So sleep after go home and then how
long can that be like like an hour maximum to an hour maximum an hour
max it's even 15 minutes. Like I don't even have a toddler
aren't even me thought that one of the things he said is I never left
that sleep. He said even during one of the battles, right? I went
to the all the way to the back and pitched my sword in and took a nap
stand during war right
if you're in a work environment and you can make Allah Allah
subhana wa Tada has an oath that he will help everyone who makes an
effort to perform ligature in prayer that he will open a channel
for them to make the obligatory prayer. So you must take
legitimate means right many people for years treat their prayer at
work like they're still
as opposed to being open about this is America. You can go to
your boss and say I have religious duty this time.
And you only you only good divine support for them obligatory
prayer. okay
to ask him I tell him I need five minutes. Five minutes. Okay. And a
clean space. No walls in America will not accommodate you guarantee
smokers are accommodated to go give themselves cancer downstairs.
Okay.
The recombinant
now what's not accommodated and what will not bring you divine
blessings. If it is if you extend your prayer beyond like making no
avail and making a lot of thicker
you're paid to do
Oh
Ah, within that window, you need to find a place.
And the only thing I could think of is the bus driver.
But even the bus driver, he's only jammed for federal. Everything
else you have a big expense to go to Nasir
know you should really try to pray to find or at least you're
standing you should be you should try to find a place where you can
stand and make yourself up. No, it's not an it's not justified or
accepted if you don't put a full effort to find a place to break
properly. Alright, and then find your car. No, you got to put the
full effort up first. And bring it
one time I a business owner came to me and he asked me about the
religion and the prayer. And then he said because I have an employee
who prays they claims it's a religious obligation but he prays
for half an hour. Okay, unfortunately that guy then he
came to me and he said why he ratted me out? So I said well I
didn't know he asked me how long was prayer tickets? It takes five
minutes he says because my employer takes 30 minutes
right so he was praying and doing the spear and making bigger than
30 minutes on the job so that's obviously you're not going to get
the divine support
well
you saying that you can't make blue like an environment where you
there's no water
if there's absolutely no possible way to get water you just try to
have blue before you get to work
right and that makes him to get it you'd have to make to him
but
the thing is I'm saying all this after one what's the requisite
effort to make oil you could bring a bottle of water with
this
bag when
you make them up
and just make them up if you miss it just make up
all right there's nothing else that didn't show no break out with
our food and our job to
make sure not
to suffer the
gym
anyone asked him that he sent
it
so
far possible
I'm always asked for a conference that'd be good
What's
up How are you doing
I really encourage you made
Okay, so you just
so long as Amen.
That's an important event. As opposed to
shame you can't intentionally do that. So we can't say I'll make
this issue.
More enjoy today. Wait for it.
So actually, I didn't
