As we push into these blessed 10 days,

00:00:02 --> 00:00:02

alhamdulillah,

00:00:03 --> 00:00:05

which are mostly levered to Allah for worship.

00:00:05 --> 00:00:07

And that's why some of the Maliki say

00:00:07 --> 00:00:08

it's best

00:00:08 --> 00:00:10

actually to make up your 6 days of

00:00:10 --> 00:00:12

Shawwal or Ramadan in these days.

00:00:13 --> 00:00:15

But also we wanna center it around

00:00:16 --> 00:00:18

And that means that we have to ask

00:00:18 --> 00:00:20

ourselves a very serious question.

00:00:20 --> 00:00:22

What is our Isma'il?

00:00:22 --> 00:00:25

Metaphorically speaking, what do I need to slaughter

00:00:25 --> 00:00:27

which is keeping me away from Allah subhanahu

00:00:27 --> 00:00:29

wa ta'ala? Maybe it's related to bad habits,

00:00:30 --> 00:00:32

maybe it's related to worship, maybe it's related

00:00:32 --> 00:00:35

to relationships with family or friends, my ego,

00:00:35 --> 00:00:36

whatever.

00:00:37 --> 00:00:39

Let me examine myself in these 10 days,

00:00:40 --> 00:00:43

take sort of an accountability of myself and

00:00:43 --> 00:00:45

those things that are keeping me away from

00:00:45 --> 00:00:47

submitting to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala and worship.

00:00:47 --> 00:00:49

Let me slaughter them for the sake of

00:00:49 --> 00:00:49

Allah.
