Sulaiman Moola – Has the Angel of Death passed away

00:00:07 --> 00:00:09

'ayu julasa in a khayr, o Messenger Sallallahu

00:00:09 --> 00:00:12

Alaihi Wasallam, which is our best companion and

00:00:12 --> 00:00:15

friend?' He Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam replied,

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

'mandakarakumullahaha

00:00:17 --> 00:00:17

roiatuhu.'

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

That friend of yours that when you look

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

at him he reminds you of Allah. Wazadafi'ilmikum

00:00:23 --> 00:00:24

mantikuhu.'

00:00:24 --> 00:00:25

and when he speaks,

00:00:26 --> 00:00:27

your knowledge about Islam increases

00:00:31 --> 00:00:33

and when you observe his life and his

00:00:33 --> 00:00:33

actions,

00:00:34 --> 00:00:36

it reminds you of the year after and

00:00:36 --> 00:00:37

accountability

00:00:37 --> 00:00:38

before Allah.

00:00:38 --> 00:00:41

Now contrast that with the sad reality in

00:00:41 --> 00:00:42

which we find ourselves.

00:00:42 --> 00:00:44

In fact, there's an incident mentioned back in

00:00:44 --> 00:00:46

the time, there was a person by the

00:00:46 --> 00:00:47

name of Tosh Thakin.

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

He had passed the age of 90, passed

00:00:50 --> 00:00:51

the 90 mark.

00:00:51 --> 00:00:53

And then he decided to sign up a

00:00:53 --> 00:00:55

lease agreement for a long period,

00:00:56 --> 00:00:57

for a land

00:00:57 --> 00:01:00

on the banks of the Tigris River,

00:01:01 --> 00:01:03

that he want to develop he wanted to

00:01:03 --> 00:01:06

build and develop a villa and a cottage

00:01:06 --> 00:01:08

there. So in that community, there was a

00:01:08 --> 00:01:10

very prominent, well known public speaker. One day

00:01:10 --> 00:01:12

he stood up and he said, Oh, folks,

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

today I'm going to give you news you

00:01:14 --> 00:01:14

never heard.

00:01:18 --> 00:01:20

Guess what? The angel of death died.

00:01:21 --> 00:01:22

People said, What?

00:01:22 --> 00:01:24

He said, Yes, the angel of death died.

00:01:24 --> 00:01:25

So they asked him, And how is that

00:01:25 --> 00:01:28

possible and how do you know that? He

00:01:28 --> 00:01:30

said, This man, Tash Takhine, is 90 years,

00:01:30 --> 00:01:32

and he's signing up a long term lease

00:01:32 --> 00:01:33

agreement

00:01:33 --> 00:01:36

to build a villa at the side of

00:01:36 --> 00:01:37

the Tigris River.

00:01:38 --> 00:01:39

His action is a reflection

00:01:40 --> 00:01:41

that there is no death.

00:01:42 --> 00:01:43

There was a time

00:01:43 --> 00:01:44

one person's,

00:01:44 --> 00:01:45

one action

00:01:46 --> 00:01:48

gave off the notion that there's no death.

00:01:48 --> 00:01:51

Sadly, today, practically every person's,

00:01:51 --> 00:01:54

every action is a reflection there's no death.
