00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			When you make dua, what is one of
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:05
			the very famous dua that people read? It's
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:06
			from Surah Al Imran.
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:12
			Al Imran chapter 3 verse 8. Here the
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:20
			What is Allah saying here? What is Allah
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:23
			telling us? Chapter 3, Surah Al Imran,
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:24
			iron number 8.
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:27
			Allah has commanded us here
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:30
			to make this du'a say, you Allah.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			Don't let our hearts turn away
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:41
			after our hearts have been rightly guided. That's
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:41
			powerful.
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:45
			The dua is about your heart. You see
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			some of us probably make this dua and
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:48
			we don't understand it.
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			This is a dua chapter 3 and you
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52
			know what I want to tell you brothers
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:53
			and sisters and myself?
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55
			Always read this dua.
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:59
			This is the powerful dua, Surah Al Imran
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:00
			chapter 3 verse 8.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08
			Allah is saying, don't let my heart you
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:09
			see I came to Masjid.
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:13
			I'm sitting now in Jumah Khutbah. I'm thinking
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:13
			Allah.
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:18
			I'm thinking vikir of Allah. I'm thinking whatever
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			I do, I should do what you want
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			me to do. Whatever I do, I must
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:24
			do what you are pleased with. Don't let
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25
			this thought and this
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28
			intention turn away, Allah.
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			After you have given me this hidayah,
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			after you have given me this guidance,
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:38
			don't let my hearts go away. You see
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:40
			your heart is a very interesting thing. You
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:41
			see just how it beats like a pump
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:46
			and it pumps, that's how it works emotionally.
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:48
			That's how it works spiritually.
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:50
			So it's easy as you go outside and
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:53
			you see food, you forget about this Quran
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:53
			and the girl.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56
			You see a nice pretty woman, you're like,
		
00:01:56 --> 00:02:00
			that is shit Shifa I talk. Now it's
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:02
			action, brother. You know?
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:05
			You see, Haram thinks you're like, yo, that
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:07
			was masjid talk. Khutba talk. Now it's action.
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:09
			Read the thing here.
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:13
			No. As you see something that you're about
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:14
			to go on the wrong path, you ask
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			Allah. You Allah, you have just guided me.
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:18
			I came from the Masjid. I just read
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:20
			Quran. I just prayed my salah.
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:25
			Don't let my hearts go off.
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31
			And in this dua, it also have Allah
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:33
			and grant me
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:36
			and give me from your rahma
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:39
			because you are the most merciful. And when
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:40
			Allah gives you from his rahma, what do
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:41
			you think happens?
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:43
			When Allah gives you from his mercy, what
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:44
			do you think happens?
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:47
			You also become merciful to other people.
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:51
			You also become loving to other people. You
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:54
			also become kind to other people. You also
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:56
			wanna love other people and be nice to
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58
			other people because Allah has placed that in
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:59
			our hearts.
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:04
			And you are telling Allah, Allah, you are
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:05
			the one, you Allah.
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:08
			You are the one full of bounties.
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:11
			You are the one full of bounties. So
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:13
			it's such a powerful dua. A lot of
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:15
			you read it, a lot of us say
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:16
			it, but you don't really we don't really
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18
			get it inculcated in our hearts.
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:22
			It's very interesting, my brothers and sisters. I
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:24
			know time is going down, so I need
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:25
			to quote a few more verses
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:27
			to remind myself and you a little bit
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:29
			about this heart because this heart
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:31
			and those of you who came late, we
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:33
			spoke on some other aspects, but this heart
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:34
			is what Allah
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:37
			looks at all the time
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:41
			and we got to have our intention very
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:43
			clear and we got to do everything for
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:45
			Allah because Allah says
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:47
			in chapter 13 verse 28, Allah
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:52
			And it is only by the remembrance of
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:54
			Allah that the hearts find peace.
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:57
			So if we do everything for the pleasure
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			of Allah, we will always have peace.
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:00
			In the first,
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:03
			we we reminded ourselves about how people always
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:05
			running down thing, running down thing, running down
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:07
			thing, because we never peaceful. We never had
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:09
			peace. We didn't do it for the sake
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			of Allah. We're doing it for money. We're
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:12
			doing it for show. We're doing it for
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:14
			fame. We're doing it to look rich in
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:14
			the community.
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:17
			And as long as we do things like
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:19
			that, we will always wanna do another thing,
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:21
			and we will never find peace. And we'll
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:22
			die die
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:23
			running down the dunya.
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			We may die running down the dunya
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:28
			and the materialistic
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:29
			things.
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:32
			You know, there is something called
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:34
			in Islam.
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:37
			You must you must check it out.
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:40
			Once someone had asked the prophet, what
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:43
			is
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:45
			that thing
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:47
			that if I do,
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:49
			Allah would love me?
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:52
			And if I do that,
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:54
			people would love me. That's a very difficult
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:55
			thing,
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:57
			to do something that Allah loves you and
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			people also love you.
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:01
			Many a times you do something for Allah,
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:02
			people don't like you, not even your wife
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			and children.
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:05
			And then many of that times you do
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:06
			things for people and Allah won't like you
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:08
			because you're not pleasing Allah.
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:09
			And the Prophet
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:11
			told the Sahabas,
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:13
			he said,
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:16
			you know, I gave a whole lecture last
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:18
			week Friday. I'll hand the line in Miami
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:20
			Gardens on the dunya and the akhirah.
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:22
			They go together, not against the dunya. I
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:24
			didn't speak against the dunya. I spoke of
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:26
			it to come back together in the deen.
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:27
			But what the prophet
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			told the Sahabas was, you must renounce
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:35
			the love and the desire for the materialistic
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:37
			things in the world. He didn't say don't
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:39
			have it. Have a wife, have a car,
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:41
			have a business, have a job, have money.
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:43
			Muslims should have money because the 3rd pillar
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:45
			in Islam is to give zakat. So you
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:46
			need to have money.
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:48
			And, you know, I will mention it in
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			the in the lecture in Miami Gardens last
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:51
			week, Friday, a lot of people believe that
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:54
			the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam was poor. Prophet
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:56
			sallallahu alaihi wasallam was not poor. You know
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:58
			who is a poor man? A poor man
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00
			is one who accepts zakat and satkar.
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:02
			It was haram for the prophet
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:05
			to accept zakat and satkar. He used to
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:07
			give zakat and satkar. So you call him
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:08
			poor?
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:09
			He was rich,
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:12
			but he lived humble and simple.
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:16
			Zakat and satka was haram for him. So
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:18
			he was rich. All the prophets were rich.
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:20
			The you go study their lives.
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:24
			Gold and silver and camels and wealth they
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:25
			had.
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:26
			So Layman
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:27
			had a kingdom.
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:29
			David was a king.
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:33
			Musa alayhi wasalam grew up in a palace.
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:35
			Yusuf alayhi wasalam
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:37
			run the kingdom of pharaoh in Egypt. What
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:38
			are you talking about?
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:40
			Muhammad salallahu alayhi wasalam, when you go to
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:43
			his home as a guest, you could drink
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:45
			milk until your belly get busted.
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:48
			Milk and milk and food and lamb and
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:50
			sheep and whatever you want.
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:54
			That's how much he had. He could have
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:55
			feed the whole nation.
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:00
			He was Allah gave him. He had. Today,
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:01
			some of us got big houses and drive
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:03
			Mercedes and Lexus
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:04
			and got
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:05
			$1,000,000
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:07
			in the bank. And when a guest come
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:08
			by your home, they can't even get a
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:09
			glass of free water.
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:11
			You know free water?
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:12
			Free.
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:15
			And you're not even giving them in a
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:16
			good glass, you're giving them on a piece
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:17
			of paper
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:20
			cup. So we pour we only live in
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:22
			glass houses and look rich, but we pour.
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:23
			We got poor hearts.
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:26
			Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam used to feed
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:28
			his guests in the best
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:31
			utensils, the best milk, the richest milk, the
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:33
			best meat, the lamb, the food. You check
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:34
			it out.
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:37
			He used to feed kufar and disbelievers like
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:38
			that
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:40
			because he had a rich heart. Remember in
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:42
			the first Khutbah or maybe in the beginning,
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:44
			I reminded myself and you of the difference
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:45
			with a rich heart.
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:49
			Uh-huh. That's what we supposed to be because
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:51
			he was his heart was connected to Allah.
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:54
			Lot of us got a lot of misconception
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:55
			about this Islam.
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:57
			So
		
00:07:58 --> 00:08:00
			my brothers and sisters, in conclusion, Allah permits,
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:02
			we'll continue on this topic of the heart.
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:04
			Is there so many verses in the Quran
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:06
			that Allah speaks about the heart, and Allah
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:09
			speaks about the heart being locked.
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:11
			You know, I I I wanna remind myself
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:13
			and remind you of a verse here taken
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:16
			from chapter 22. Hear what Allah says here.
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:17
			Very interesting.
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:18
			And I I don't wanna read the whole
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:20
			verse. It's a very very long verse. Chapter
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:21
			22 Surah Hajj
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:23
			verse 26.
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:25
			Hear what Allah says.
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:35
			He says, certainly, the eyes are not blind.
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:38
			The eyes. Meaning, you know, you read the
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:39
			Quran, you read it,
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:41
			you hear
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:43
			you hear Quran and Hadith.
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:46
			Allah is the verse tells you what people
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:48
			travel through the land and they see the
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:49
			mercy of Allah. They see the power of
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:52
			Allah. They see the greatness of Allah. And
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:54
			Allah is saying, certainly it's not their ears
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:57
			or their eyes that are blind, you know.
		
00:08:57 --> 00:08:58
			Hear what he says.
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:05
			He says, their hearts that are blind.
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:09
			You see how powerful the heart is? It
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:11
			is our hearts that are blocked and locked
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:13
			and blind that we don't hear what we
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:16
			should hear. We don't see what we should
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:18
			see. We don't digest
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:21
			spiritually what we should digest because this is
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:22
			what is locked.
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:25
			Oh, and Allah uses the word locked. Lock.
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:27
			This is not my opinion. Don't go and
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:28
			say Sheikh Shafa. It said locked for the
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:30
			heart. Allah says blind.
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:32
			He says it's the heart that is blind.
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:34
			That's why you know, it's like, you know,
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:37
			there's a famous saying about love is blind.
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:39
			When a person falls, there's a famous English
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:41
			saying about love is blind. If you love
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:44
			someone, it doesn't matter how they look, what
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:46
			color they are, what nationality they are. You
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:47
			love that person.
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:50
			Nationality will come after, colors will come after,
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:52
			passport will come after, and visa will also
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:53
			come after.
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:56
			Because it's love. The heart loves that person.
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:58
			And your entire family telling you
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:03
			How you like that guy? Oh, you like
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:04
			that boy?
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:07
			You don't know? You're a doctor. You're a
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:09
			lawyer. You have business. Your father has everything.
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:10
			You like that?
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:14
			What is this? What is this? You love
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:15
			that person. You see everything in that person.
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:17
			You see wealth. You see color. You see
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:18
			scholar. You see everything.
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:21
			Because the heart is blind when the heart
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:24
			falls in love. So your heart just sees
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:24
			love.
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:27
			And similarly, when your heart has hate for
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:28
			someone, that's what you see.
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:31
			You and then on the other hand, your
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:32
			parents don't like the person.
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:34
			Think Think about it. Your parents don't like
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:35
			the person.
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:37
			So now the person is a doctor, but
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:38
			your parents think you're the dance.
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:41
			The person is wealthy, your parents they're nothing
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:43
			to me. The person is good looking, they
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:45
			say, hey, what ugly girl you brought for
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:49
			me here? Your parents see a beautiful person
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:51
			stands in front of your parents, but because
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:53
			your parents hate that person, they see no
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:54
			beauty
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:56
			because they have no love.
		
00:10:56 --> 00:10:59
			You now, on the other hand, may have
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:01
			an ugly paw, everything put together in the
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:03
			package and all you see is love and
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:06
			wealth and success, and what this person will
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:07
			become tomorrow Allahu Akbar.
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:10
			Love is blind. What it is? When they
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:11
			say love is blind, not the love is
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:14
			the heart gets blind when you love someone.
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:16
			The heart is what goes blind
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:19
			to see something, or the heart is what
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:20
			opens up for somebody.
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:23
			So other people, when their love is blind,
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:25
			you don't see false. You only see love.
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:27
			And other people who who don't love, their
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:29
			heart is also blind. They don't see good.
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:31
			They only see faults.
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:33
			I said, wait. What? And here what Allah
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:35
			says in the Quran. Again, it's not my
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:37
			words. It's not my opinion. It's what Allah
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:37
			says.
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:39
			Allah says here,
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:47
			don't they comprehend and study and think over
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:47
			this Quran?
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:49
			And they're pondering
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:53
			and trying to understand what Allah is saying
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:53
			here?
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:55
			Meaning us, we.
		
00:11:55 --> 00:11:57
			Allah is telling us all these things and
		
00:11:57 --> 00:11:59
			we don't try to comprehend and understand what
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:01
			goes on in the Quran.
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:03
			So Allah is now here what he says.
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:12
			So you got eyes, you're reading the Quran.
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:14
			You got a degree from the university, so
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:15
			you're understanding the Quran.
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:18
			You got all the intelligence, so you could
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:20
			read it. You could do everything.
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:22
			Why are we not following it? Allah is
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:25
			saying because their hearts are locked
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:29
			up. The eyes are reading, the ears are
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:29
			hearing,
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:32
			the eyes are seeing, but Allah is saying,
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:34
			it's the hearts that are locked.
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:38
			And the hearts are not given the direction
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:38
			to the brain
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:41
			to tell the hands and the body to
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:43
			act in accordance with Allah
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:45
			and the commands of Allah and for the
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:47
			pleasure of Allah and
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:51
			So the heart, my brothers and sisters sorry
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:52
			I can't go back into repeating the whole
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:54
			beginning of the khutbah, But for those of
		
00:12:54 --> 00:12:56
			you who came late again, get can get
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:58
			the khutbah after salah on how Allah on
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:00
			the day of judgment would check will look
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:02
			at our hearts. He wants to see the
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:02
			good hearts
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:04
			with all the good data
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:06
			that we have done and why we did
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:08
			it, when we did it, for what reason
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:09
			we did it.
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:11
			Because
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:14
			all actions are judged with intention. And where
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:15
			does the intention come from?
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:18
			The heart. And that's the intention that makes
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:20
			you act accordingly.
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:23
			So, you know, I always like to, I
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:25
			know recently I went to New York and
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:27
			did a a lecture. 1 brother met me.
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:28
			He said, I look at the Khutba's life
		
00:13:28 --> 00:13:29
			from Darul Ullum,
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:32
			but, like, you stop giving sharing humor with
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:34
			us, man. I would always remember your humor.
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:36
			I I I just love the humor. So
		
00:13:36 --> 00:13:37
			today, I wanted to share a little,
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:40
			a little humor on on love, you know.
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:42
			There was this little there was this girl
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:45
			or this lady before we conclude the chutba.
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:47
			She was looking for a husband
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:48
			interest in her.
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:51
			So you single people, think about it.
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:52
			So
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:54
			she went on this dating
		
00:13:55 --> 00:13:55
			website
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:58
			to search her husband. Wahid, you smiling. Are
		
00:13:58 --> 00:14:00
			you always on the dating website?
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:03
			Anyhow, brother, that is also smiling. He's also
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:04
			on the dating website.
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:06
			So he went on the website. I mean,
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:07
			she went on the website
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:11
			and negotiated. So they asked her, what do
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:11
			you want?
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:12
			She was like,
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:15
			someone pretty,
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:16
			looking nice.
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:18
			Uh-huh.
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:21
			Someone who will always be with me,
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:23
			near with me,
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:26
			in the kitchen with me, when I am
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:28
			cooking. Even when I go in the toilet,
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:29
			he must be with me.
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:32
			Oh, yeah. People put this kind of request
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:33
			in the toilet.
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:35
			When I'm traveling,
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:37
			you know, he must be with me.
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:41
			When I'm washing, when I'm cooking, everything I
		
00:14:41 --> 00:14:43
			do, he needs to be with me. When
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:45
			I sit in the living room, he must
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:47
			be with me. When I'm sleeping, he must
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:48
			be with me.
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:51
			And she gave the long line of request.
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:54
			And when I want to hear some stories,
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:57
			he will share these loving stories with me
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:59
			and everything. You know, he will just give
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:00
			it to me.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02
			The computer came back and the organization
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:05
			replied, you need a smartphone.
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:08
			I didn't get out of there. In the
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:10
			beginning, she did really say she want a
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:11
			smart husband.
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:13
			But all these things that you look at
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:15
			the girls nowadays and the boy. That's what
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:16
			they do. The phone is with them in
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:18
			the kitchen, in the toilet, in the bed,
		
00:15:18 --> 00:15:20
			on the bed, on the pillow, in the
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:22
			work, at home, in the kitchen, in the
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:23
			living. Everything.
		
00:15:24 --> 00:15:25
			So a lot of times sometimes
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:29
			you think that you love someone, but it's
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:30
			the phone you love more than you really
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:32
			love. I just wanna use that example. A
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:34
			lot of times, we don't even know where
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:35
			we love and who we love and why
		
00:15:35 --> 00:15:37
			we love, and we don't know what we
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:38
			love for.
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:41
			Sometimes you love just for materialistic things. Well,
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:42
			you could get that on Google.
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:44
			11 one guy was asked, he said, I
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:46
			don't need to get married because anything I
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:47
			want, I search it on Google. I get
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:48
			it from Google.
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:50
			You could get it on your phone,
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:53
			But you the phone doesn't have a heart,
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:56
			so there's no love connection. It may your
		
00:15:56 --> 00:15:58
			likeness and your physical attraction.
		
00:15:58 --> 00:16:01
			But that's a whole different kind of necessity
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:03
			likeness as to the connection that a wife
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:05
			will have to a husband. You may get
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:06
			all these materialistic
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:09
			physical things from a phone or a computer
		
00:16:09 --> 00:16:10
			or whatever,
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:13
			but that connection of love
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:15
			could only get it from your companion.
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:17
			That's why Allah says in the Quran in
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:20
			Surah Rum, and again not my idea, in
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:22
			Surah Rum chapter 30 verse 21,
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:28
			that you find peace and you find tranquility
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:31
			in your spouse because that's a connection from
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:33
			the heart. Forget about the body and the
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:35
			phone and the television and the house and
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:35
			the refrigerator.
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:38
			It's disconnection that Allah connects.
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:40
			This connection from the heart of the wife
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:43
			to the heart of the husband, and then
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:45
			that transpires into the 2 bodies and they
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:47
			find peace. Other than that, if you don't
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:49
			have those 2 hearts,
		
00:16:49 --> 00:16:51
			if a husband and wife, their hearts are
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:52
			not connected,
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:54
			they could have a $1,000,000,000.
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:56
			They can have all the motor cars, all
		
00:16:56 --> 00:16:58
			the properties, all the houses. They will not
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:00
			find love and peace in each other. They
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:02
			will be looking for it outside.
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:19
			Let these radical imams brainwash some of us.
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:21
			We come here, we sit, we sleep in
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:23
			Khutbas, we don't get the message, that's why
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:25
			we miss it. All I need you to
		
00:17:25 --> 00:17:27
			be grateful, Allah.
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:28
			Are you telling me
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:31
			Allah will not protect the the prestige of
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:33
			Muhammad? All of us are only living for
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:33
			business.
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:36
			That's all our dream. Let me see who
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:37
			shall save you now.
