AI: Transcript ©
Respected elders, your brothers
and sisters, my young friends,
We
begin by praising Allah
the lord of the universe,
our creator, our sustainer, our nourisher, our designer,
and the controller of everything that exists in
this universe.
And we begin by sending peace and salutations
upon his beloved messenger, Muhammad, the son of
Abdullah,
the final Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa
salam. I hope and pray my brothers and
sisters
that you are doing well on this
first blessed Friday
of this blessed month of Ramadan.
And
indeed we must thank Allah
for allowing us the opportunity
to witness
this first Friday of Ramadan,
the blessed the the blessed day of the
week. So the first most blessed day of
the week of the most blessed month of
the year. May Allah
grant us tawfiq. May Allah
protect us and grant us strength
and guide us to take full advantage
of this blessed month. Ameen.
My
brothers and sisters,
this is indeed a great blessing
and another example of the mercy of Allah
upon us. Because, subhanAllah,
last year when we ended the month of
Ramadan, when we exited the month of Ramadan,
we did not know
how many of us would be
able to or would be allowed
to witness this blessed month once again. But
Allah
out of his sheer mercy and his grace
has granted us this opportunity.
So first and foremost,
it's for us
to be or or for us to express
shukr for Allah
That Allah
has chose us and made us worthy enough
considered us worthy enough to give us another
chance so that we can turn to him
in repentance and seek his mercy and forgiveness
during this this blessed month. And, of course,
we ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to shower
his mercy and forgiveness
upon all of those who have returned to
Him. Indeed, that is not in our control,
that is in no one's control. Allah
is the one who determines
when we are to breathe for the first
time, and Allah
determines and indeed He has already determined
for every single one of us when our
last breath is going to be. And no
one no one is able to change that
decree of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
So may Allah
elevate the rank and the status of all
of our brothers and sisters who have returned
to him, especially during this past year. May
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala shower his mercy and
forgiveness upon them. Ameen You Rabbala Alameen. My
brothers and sisters, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says,
My mercy
encompasses
all things. Allah
mercy is the greatest. There is no one
else who has as much mercy as Allah
And as the prophet
told us
that
once
the it is narrated that the prophet
saw a woman who was feeding her child,
who was breastfeeding her child. So he said,
do you think that this woman can throw
her son, her child in the fire? And
the companions
replied and they said, no,
it is inconceivable, it is impossible
that this woman who is lovingly
feeding her child, who is breastfeeding her child
that she can throw her child into the
fire. So the prophet
said, Allah is more merciful to his servants
than this woman is to her son.
La Inna HaAllahu,
Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is more merciful than a
mother is to her young baby
and and the compassion and the love that
she has in taking care of the child
and feeding the child. That love and compassion
is nothing compared to the love and compassion
and mercy that Allah
has towards his servants.
In the end, my brothers and sisters, it
is going to be his mercy.
It will be his mercy that will make
the difference for us as well.
You know, a lot of times
we think that a person or a person
thinks that because they have a lot of
good deeds,
because they have done a lot of prayers,
or they have fasted a lot, or they
have given a lot of charity,
or because they do a Hajj and Umrah
every year or every other year, or because
they do this good deed and they do
that good deed
that they are going to be saved. And
my brothers and sisters, this is not the
approach or the attitude of the believer.
This is not the attitude or the approach
of the believer. The believer is always humble.
The believer is always humble in their deeds,
never taking things for granted, but at the
same time, the believer also does not become
despondent and hopeless. Because sometimes people hear this
and they say, well, what is the point
of doing good deeds? If I have no
guarantee
if I have no guarantee that my good
deeds are going to take me into Jannah,
then why why should I do good deeds?
What's the point of doing it? Now my
brothers and sisters, this is not the attitude
of the believer.
This is not the attitude of the servant
who humbles themselves in front of Allah
The servant has a balance of hope and
fear, fear that Allah
may not accept me or my deeds are
probably not good enough, but also hope in
the mercy of Allah
that as long as I have tried my
best, as long as I have been sincere,
insha'Allah, from my insha'Allah, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
will forgive me and grant me deliverance from
the hellfire. May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala protect
us all, May Allah
forgive us for our shortcomings.
When a Muslim has recorded on the authority
of Jadid that the prophet
said that actions alone
will not enter any of you into Jannah
or protect him or her from the fire.
And not, will not protect him or her
from the fire and the prophet
the best of creation
said
and not even me
and not even me the prophet sallallahu alayhi
wasalam you know humbling himself
in front of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala and
telling us that he also although he is
the best of the creation
he humbles himself and tells us that not
even me illa bi rahmatimin Allah
except through the mercy of Allah, my brothers
and sisters, we ourselves, whatever we are able
to do, whatever we are guided to do,
it is minor, it is little, and this
is the approach of the believer. A believer
is never overconfident
about his or her
or his or her deeds, good deeds, never
overconfident,
always afraid
but also also also hopeful as well in
the mercy of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
So at the end of the day my
brothers and sisters a person who shows up
with a lot of good deeds on the
day of judgment, if Allah
wants Allah
could reject every single one of their millions
and hundreds and thousands hundreds of thousands of
good deeds if Allah
finds shortcomings
in them.
So anyone who gains acceptance,
even if it appears to be through their
deeds, will be because of the mercy of
Allah
So this mercy of Allah is all that
we need my brothers and sisters. And on
this first, you know, Friday of Ramadan,
most of
us are in a state of spiritual filth,
spoiled and dirty spiritual state. You know, we
may have dressed nicely
as is the sunnah on Fridays,
but our body bodies
are probably hiding
much more than our internal
fluids and our filth
that is visible.
It is there hiding a lot more than
what is expected and what is visible. Our
spiritual state, my brothers and sisters, is in
a state of decay
and disease, and we may not even realize
it. Like the person who has an illness,
a virus, and cancer, but they're not even
aware until the last minute when it's too
late. May Allah
protect us and forgive us.
Our spiritual state may be similar as well
that we are rotting from inside
spiritually, that we have spiritual cancers
and spiritual viruses, but we do not even
realize it because we are asymptomatic.
Or perhaps we are symptomatic, but we don't
realize the symptoms.
May Allah
purify us, our bodies, our souls, and our
minds.
And brothers and sisters, if we were to
go into our graves with all those stains
of sins and those hidden thoughts that we
are too ashamed to share with anyone and
those temptations
and the spiritual diseases that are inside of
us right now, then what would be our
state when Allah
opens it up? What will be our state
when Allah
opens it all up for all to see
and to be judged? May Allah forgive us
for the believers. My brothers and sisters,
this is indeed a scary thought because
at the end of the day, we are
going to be judged for every single thing
that we have done. Allah
will take us to account for all of
our actions and our deeds, and everything that
is hidden inside of our hearts, inside of
our minds
will
come out on that day, will be spilled
out on that day. So for the believers,
it is indeed a scary thought but my
brothers and sisters,
this is the month of mercy and forgiveness.
And while it is good to be fearful
of Allah and His wrath on the day
of judgment,
This is also something that the believers should
have.
Indeed, it is a part of belief to
fear Allah
to fear His wrath and to fear the
day of judgment and not to take it
lightly.
But Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala also gives us
much hope and indeed wants us to be
hopeful, to always be hopeful in his mercy.
The good news is Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
says,
say, oh, my servants will have transgressed against
themselves,
meaning by sinning. How do we transgress against
ourselves?
It's by wronging we wrong ourselves by committing
sins, which ultimately are going to lead to
damage and hurt for our own selves.
May Allah forgive us. So Allah
Indeed Allah forgives all sins.
Indeed Allah forgives
all sins. So no matter what you have
done, my brothers and sisters,
no matter what you have done, so many
of us,
indeed all of us, have skeletons in our
closets, meaning we have done things that we
are ashamed of, perhaps nobody knows about, perhaps
people know about,
perhaps they are very serious against others, against
ourselves, against
our family members, against Allah
Whatever it is, do not despair of the
mercy of Allah because
indeed Allah forgives all.
Indeed it is he who is the forgiving
and who is the merciful. My brothers and
sisters, do not despair of the mercy of
Allah. You know, always, the 1st Friday of
Ramadan, in the month of Ramadan,
There are many brothers and sisters who tune
in or who attend prayers for the first
time in the whole year.
And may Allah forgive us, may Allah protect
us all.
But
who knows
what we have done in the past year
except for Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. Perhaps there
are some who were taking drugs, doing alcohol
taking alcohol. Perhaps there are those who were,
committing crimes. Perhaps someone committed a murder. Perhaps
because someone committed
other serious crimes, perhaps someone was indulged in
drugs, in
things which are haram, in consuming haram.
No matter what you have done, my brothers
and sisters, never despair the mercy of Allah
Allah And the list of sins is long,
and I'm not gonna go through them all.
But my point is, no matter what you
have done, no matter how serious it was,
know that the doors of my mercy and
forgiveness are open for you, my brothers and
my sisters.
Come forward towards Allah
with sincerity,
with remorse, and Insha'Allah, Allah
will wipe it clean for you, and Allah
will guide you as it says
hope in Allah's mercy. Certainly, no one despairs
of Allah's mercy
except the people who disbelieve.
So my brothers and sisters, Shaytan plays this
trick on us and tells us that we
have gone beyond
the point of no return, that we have
become so bad, that we are so terrible,
that our situation is so hopeless, that we
should become so despondent, that now there is
no point in even trying, there is no
point in even turning to Allah
That there is no point to try to
reestablish our prayers or to do any amount
of goodness because we have been doomed to
the * fire. My brothers and sisters, this
is the trap. This is the trick of
shaitan.
Do not fall for this, my brothers and
sisters.
No one is past the point of no
return
as long as you are alive and as
long as the doors of Tawbah are open.
My brothers and sisters, the mercy and forgiveness
of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala are there for
you. Do we just need to be sincere?
We just need to be sincere
and take some steps, make some effort, have
some good thoughts and insha'Allah, Allah Subhanahu Wa
Ta'ala will take us from there. Abu Huraira
radiAllahu Wa'an who relates the Qalaqara rasulullah Sallallahu
Alaihi Wasallam Jaa'Allahu
Rahmatamiatajuz
Allah has 100
parts of mercy. Allah
has made 100 parts of mercy
for and
he has of which he has sent down,
well, and, of which he has, kept, you
know, 1
he has kept 99 parts. And he has
sent upon the earth only one part. He
has sent to the earth, he has sent
to the creation
only one part and he has kept 99
parts for himself.
And the prophet
said that
by means of which this 1% of mercy,
by means of which wild animals are kind
to their offspring,
right? Allah
has sent 1%
and what you see in the mercy that
the animals have towards their children and what
mercy you'll find amongst the human beings and
the creation and indeed the jinn as well,
that is 1%
of the mercy that exists and
Allah
has kept
99%
of the mercy
for the day of judgment for his servants,
for his slaves on the day of judgment.
My brothers and sisters, can you it is
even inconceivable to imagine
how the extent, the depth of that mercy
that all of this mercy and compassion and
kindness that we find in the world since
the beginning of time till the end of
time amongst all the creation of Allah, the
human beings, the jinns, the animals,
everyone is only 1%.
And Allah
has kept 99%
my brothers and sisters. My brothers and sisters,
let us not deprive ourselves of that 99%
mercy that Allah
has kept for us by becoming despondent,
by turning away from Allah by
rejecting Allah
Let us not become those who will be
even deprived of that 99%.
May Allah
protect us and forgive us and guide us.
So this is how merciful my brothers and
sisters, Allah
is. It is even hard even to imagine,
and we don't need to we won't we
don't want to be those who are deprived
of Allah's mercy. So we need to work
on it now to attract as much as
it of it that we can and the
tools that Allah has given us are the
Ibadat.
They are the worship.
Those are the tools for attracting the mercy
of Allah
At the end of the day, it will
be the mercy of Allah and not our
actions
which not our good deeds alone, I should
say. That will determine our fate, but it
will be the mercy of Allah
but the mercy of Allah is closer to
those who do good. The mercy of Allah
is closer to those who are humble servants
of Allah
The mercy of Allah is closer to those
who turn to Allah
with sincerity and humility.
So, yes, actions, good deeds are important,
but they're
not alone
going to determine our fate. It is to
attract the mercy of Allah
So our prayers, our fasting, our charity,
all of the good deeds that we have
been taught, these are all tools for attracting
the mercy of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. And
what we wanna do my brothers and sisters
is to do them properly
with our heart, with presence of mind, with
feeling, the feeling of neediness,
the feeling of weakness,
and being small in front of Allah Subhanahu
wa Ta'ala,
feeling the burden of our sins and our
shortcomings,
feeling like we are nothing, feeling like we
are faqara in front of Allah Subhanahu wa
Ta'ala.
And worthy of all praise. So my brothers
and sisters,
let us fast and let us stand in
prayer and give,
and all of these things should be felt.
So when we fast, it's felt in the
stomach. When we stand, we feel it perhaps
in our feet. When we give, you know,
we feel it, we give with our mind,
we decide and we give it with our
hand, but in all of those things, my
brothers and sisters,
our heart should feel the presence of Allah
We want to be connected with Allah
We want to feel love for Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala.
We don't want to be those who just
do these actions, these rituals
without any feeling. May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
grant us hearts that are pure and that
are filled of positive feelings for him
My brothers and sisters, Allah the prophet
said,
and he pointed towards his heart, towards his
chest. Fasting, my brothers and sisters, is for
taqwa. Other acts of worship are also linked
to taqwa. So at the end of the
day, there needs to be there should be
some feeling here, my brothers and sisters. Now
the best way to increase the intensity of
mercy that is being beamed down upon us,
my brothers and sisters, is to pass on
the mercy to others as the
prophet
said, Those who show mercy to others, the
rahman meaning Allah
will show mercy to them, show mercy to
those on the earth and the one in
the heavens will so will show mercy to
you. So the key to being continuous recipients
of Allah's mercy, my brothers and sisters, is
to be merciful to others as well. So
my brothers and sisters, what should we do?
Number 1, forgive others.
Be merciful towards others as you want Allah
to be merciful and forgiving towards you. Let
us clean our hearts. Perhaps Allah
will like it that we have forgiven others,
that we have cleaned our hearts, and that
we are merciful towards others. And perhaps Allah,
subhanahu wa ta'ala, would like it, and he
will do the same towards as well towards
us as well. Number 2, my brothers and
sisters, show kindness and compassion to all. Deal
nicely in the best way possible, always looking
out to help beyond what is required. Insha'Allah,
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will also have the
same attitude towards us as well. And finally,
my brothers and sisters,
find
ways to make your presence
a form of mercy for the entire creation
of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, not to be
a burden or annoyance
even if others don't reciprocate
your mercy and your kindness. Insha'Allah, you will
see how the mercy of Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala will descend upon you. Insha'Allah.
My Lord forgive and have mercy and you
are the best and the most merciful. And
especially on this Friday, my brothers and sisters
want to encourage you
to please myself first and all of us
to increase our istighfar,
increase
repentance and turning to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
and seeking the forgiveness of Allah Subhanahu Wa
Ta'ala. The current
situation is very dire.
The current situation
is very serious and is very dire. Space
is running out in hospitals. They're talking about
creating field hospitals,
actual field hospitals
that are not inside actual hospitals, but other
hospitals in the fields outside in other places,
perhaps. But there are not enough staff to
staff those hospital beds.
And this may
I don't like to say it, but this
may actually be our last public Friday prayer
in the month of Ramadan. May
Allah forgive us. May Allah
forgive us for our shortcomings.
May Allah
forgive us
forgive our sins and shower his mercy and
forgiveness upon us.
At least,
the good thing is Allah
has blessed us at least with this one
Friday compared to last year.
Knows our good intentions and Allah
will continue to, we hope,
reward us according to our good intentions
and what we actually desire. And, of course,
the restrictions
that may be coming into place
are for good reason because, like I said,
the situation is very dire. It is very
serious.
So everything that is being done is for
the benefit of of the people and to
save people. So there is no blame in
terms of that. But just this prospect of
not being able to offer salah in Jamarah
in the month of Ramadan,
especially on Fridays, this is very, of course,
saddening
for the believers, but Allah
knows what is best
and
will continue to
to to to shower his mercy upon us.
We hope,
But, nonetheless, my brothers and sisters,
let us turn to Allah in repentance and
increase our
because this situation has not gone anywhere. It
hasn't gotten any better and has actually gotten
much, much worse all of a sudden. May
Allah forgive us all. Allah says,
and whoever is mindful of Allah, He will
make a way out for them
and provide for them from sources that they
could never imagine.
And whoever puts their trust in Allah, then
he alone is sufficient for them.
Certainly, Allah achieves his will, and Allah has
already set a destiny for everything. May Allah
shower his abundant mercy upon us. May
Allah soften our hearts. May
Allah purify our hearts and fill them with
goodness and love for him, and may he
make us recipients of his endless mercy until
the day we meet him.
My brothers and sisters, with your generous support,
we finally have our own place for prayers
and activities.
Allah has guided us and enabled us to
do the work that we are doing. Now
on this blessed first Friday of Ramadan,
we ask you to please donate to help
keep us building together. So building togetherness
through improved programs and services,
may Allah help us and and a much
needed new Masjid and Center 20,000 Square Feet
Facility Insha'Allah
to host us all after this pandemic Insha'Allah.
As
you have not let this work down, every
time we have come in front of you,
the phase one construction of our Masjid and
project the center project, which is the current
building that is existing, the renovating that and
the outside work that needed to be done
that slowed down during the lockdowns.
But the finishing touches
are being completed
almost daily, and, the beautiful new carpet has
been installed.
People are praying on it every day, alhamdulillah.
And phase 2,
which is again the 20,000 square foot purpose
built Masjid and Center just in front of
the existing building towards the road, is currently
being reviewed with an award winning architect, and
we look forward to sharing the updated design
with you in the near future, Insha'Allah.
But additional funds are needed in order to
start construction
of the new Masjid and Center facility. And
my brothers and sisters, honestly, you know, it's
not every day that we witness the building
of a Masjid,
that is so close to us. And when
that opportunity passes, it's gone. So thank you
for all that you have given so far.
May Allah
accept from you. And may Allah
continue to,
you know, alhamdulillah, Allah has continued to give
you,
so take this opportunity to show gratefulness to
Allah by investing in his house with so
much need and so much potential. Seriously, like,
there's so much to be done. And the
goal of this Ramadan is $400,000
Insha'Allah. It's called the building together campaign. We're
building the masjid together, but also building togetherness
in this process as well. And your contribution
will be spent on the new Masjid and
center facility Insha'Allah.
And instead of giving later, you know, be
smart and give now, reach 70, you know,
up to some 100 times more reward insha'Allah,
plus of course the tax benefits as well.
So we need to reach $20,000
today insha'Allah. That is our goal. So for
that, I would kindly ask 20 brothers and
sisters who can give a $1,000 each. After
the tax credit, it will only cost about
$640,
and, you know, that's about the cost of
a coffee a day. So please come forward
today. The debit machines are at the back
for those who are here outside, and it
is also
available,
you can, of course, also give online as
well,
at kanadamaslims.ca/donate.
And even if you're planning to, you know,
to give in the last 10 nights on
the 27th night of Ramadan, the reality is,
my brothers and sisters, there are no guarantees.
You know, what if I don't make it
up to there?
So therefore, make the intention, inshallah. Allah will
reward you for your good intentions.
May Allah bless you all. May He increase
your reward manifold in this blessed month. May
Allah
bless you and protect you and your loved
ones.
We have some sad news of the passing
of brother Mansur Al Islam, the father of
sister Khuzala Waheed and sister Rahilah Nadeem, who's
the father-in-law of brother Waheed Usmani, passed away
on Wednesday here in Harwa. And also, sadly,
the grandmother of our brothers, Ahmed Tawakul and,
brother Basim Abdul Hanin and brother Muhammad Shafi
also passed away yesterday in Cairo.
So please remember them in your Dua, and
I'm going to pause for a minute, and,
inshallah, I'll be back, for those who are
home.
My apologies, brothers and sisters.
Actually, you're not leaving giving the first today.
So,

had an issue with the sound system, and
I'm sitting inside because the sound is coming
in. But we will continue
