You know,
we're going through this book on remembering Allah,
and I thought, like, again, what an opportunity
zikr, you know, ultimately for me in my
life,
the best moments
of remembering Allah
that have been,
like, in these moments.
Not necessarily.
Of course, I can help you up those
steps.
You doing okay? Yeah. I'm doing I'm doing
great. And hopefully,
if the city attorney works his magic, I'll
have Bannister see it with the You need
help inside? You okay? I'm fine now. I
live right here. I'm not crazy. You don't
have to worry. I'm fine now. You want
me to carry this for you? Nope.
No. Oh, okay. Come holler at me. You
got a big guy here. Thank you. Thank
you, man. You have a great night. That's
sweet spot. Alright. Pray for us.
So just like that, man. You see that?
Crazy.
You know, I like
the vlog version because that kind of unscripted
stuff happens.
Allah bless me to be in the service
of somebody, especially my neighbor. You know what
I mean? Like, ah, feel
lucky.
But
as I was just saying, right, that will
that's what makes these moments incredible.
And that's why, you know, New York, the
weather's been cold, so I haven't been able
to vlog like I want to.
But
we're talking about remembering Allah.
And I think this chapter in particular is
beautiful because
remembering Allah in the morning and the evening
is kinda like
the state of being in spiritual resistance to
the continued
encroachment
of, like, the secular world.
You know, most people when they wake up,
what do they think about?
First thing they do is jump on their
phones.
First thing they do is think about the
stock market
or Bitcoin or whatever. Right?
For the Muslim, the first thing we do,
we set out in the morning,
is remember Allah.
So the hadith in front of us is
the hadith of Abdullah ibn Masood
who said that,
you know,
Sayidina Muhammad
he
said
whoever
says
You know,
Marra could have
a lot of meanings.
It can mean a 100 times exactly
or it could mean, like, abundantly.
Whoever says
we talked about
the idea that our mind is swimming
in its attempt to find anything like Allah.
And
eventually, we just
we just have to flow with it because
that's impossible.
Like, just now. Right? That lady. Right?
You
know, like or
like the ability to be there, to help
her and serve her.
Who could orchestrate that?
You know what I mean?
And then secondly,
We've never talked about this before,
but the and could have a few meanings.
First meaning is like,
the the reason I say is
because of my
So the here is called that caused it
to happen. The second meaning could be
that's the stronger opinions. Like,
I praise Allah
with his
I recognize, excuse me,
Allah's transcendence
with his praise.
So I think it's incredible we start our
day. You think about
the when Allah created.
We recognize your your
your sacredness.
We start our day
in the face of so much
difficulties.
Advice
are enough
being constantly bombarded with
the material.
We recognize that all this right here
is nothing compared to the sanctity
and infiniteness of Allah. So you, like,
you think about it. Right?
In these moments
now I'm going to work. It's the evening,
but
it's, like,
difficult sometimes to keep that balance
between
being driven for dunya
and focused on the so
thikr
is allergies while new york's something else
The Thikr is really a way to contextualize
and reflect
and a proof that we
can contextualize
worshiping
Allah within any context
whether we
are surrounded by people or not,
whether we're on the way to work,
on the way to the masjid.
You know what I mean? It's tough, but,
like, it's easy. Like, none of these people
are aware
that you and I are with Allah.
But we're doing
it. So it's remarkable,
you know, that
immediately recognizes
Allah's transcendence in the face of an ever
encroaching secular
material
as well as
it can be only really framed down globalization
as like a post
neo hellenistic
paganry.
And heath agree
we come out subhanAllah.
Well, bihamdi means 2 things. Number 1, by
Allah's I'm able to make
or it's like I'm doing
with
the praise of Allah. So,
little short reflection, you can listen to like.
