00:00:08 --> 00:00:10
			Have a layer of anatomy
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:12
			or shadow
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:17
			or shadow under Mohammedan? Abdo
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:28
			by the law of the land, I mean, along the Sunday was suddenly more vertical and your man and Amina
Mohammed was early he was supposed to be here as rain.
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:42
			Today, inshallah Tada, we'll be covering the last class of the tree of mn till the end he showed you
about to the man
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:49
			clarifying the tree of faith and how the tree of faith is like a good word.
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52
			And
		
00:00:53 --> 00:01:09
			thus far, we've covered the first two sections of the book and today's shallow data, we're going to
cover a section three. So quickly, let's just do a recap of section one. What did section one deal
with in this book?
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:14
			under law? you going?
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:29
			Okay, so, yeah, so section one, we dealt with clarifying the definition of email. What is he meant?
And
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:32
			what does he mean? What did we say that
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:38
			statement in action, but what what does that mean? statement in action?
		
00:01:42 --> 00:02:32
			Okay, okay, so statements come from the heart, and is made on the tongue? And what is the statement
of the heart would it because again, this is not regular terminology, this is not just something
that every Arab is going to know, hold on. So when you translate it into English, it's also not
going to make perfect sense unless you actually know what you're saying. So when we say hold on the
statement of the heart, what are we referring to, to the affirmation, the true conviction in the
heart of La, la lala, everything else, all of the other actions of the heart are built upon that
conviction. Right, so we talked about loving a lust for data, fearing Allah, hoping and Allah,
		
00:02:32 --> 00:03:13
			putting our trust in Allah subhanaw taala, turning to him and repentance, all of those are actions
of the heart, based on what the conviction of the law so that's how little can be, or the statement
of the heart, if you will, and those are, I'm a little tongue or actions of the heart. And then we
have the statement of the tongue, what is referred with that means here is what La ilaha illAllah.
And that is how that is the muscle of one's faith that is the foundation of faith. That is how a
person enters into the fold of Islam. And then after that, we have actions of the tongue which of
those actions which can only be performed by the tongue like your auto Quran, reading the Quran,
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:15
			Vicar of Allah subhana wa tada
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19
			do and otherwise fine.
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:28
			And then you have actions of, of the limbs, and your saliva, your Hydro and so forth.
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:37
			So, again, to recap, then we say, Amen, is statement in action. That's the,
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:41
			the summarized version of that definition type.
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:46
			Part Two, section two of the book, what did that deal with
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:53
			developing your email and increasing
		
00:03:54 --> 00:04:03
			and increasing your email time the author started out with four ways that he man is increased
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:06
			who remembers them?
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:38
			Okay, so knowing by you knowing a loss of data that you will have imagine and the more that your
knowledge of a lesser amount of data grows, then the more that your Eman increases type. That's
number one. And that is the basis of all of the ways that you are going to grow in faith is your
knowledge of Allah subhana wa Tada. How? How do we know Allah
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:59
			through his type through his names and attributes like and that and we find those were and the Quran
and the son of the Prophet it slides was saying heavy. So therefore, knowledge of the Quran and
reflecting over the Koran, knowledge of the Hadith of the Prophet, it is Salatu was set at that
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:00
			Two and Three.
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			And then four is what?
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:53
			Number one is now knowing a loss paradigm, we know him through revelation, which is a grind sooner,
so it's two and three. So knowing the grind, reflecting over the Quran and knowing the son of the
Prophet, it is too late to sin. And then number four is the one who conveyed the revelation, the one
who conveyed revelation. So knowing the seal of the Prophet, it is select to sit in those four, in
terms of knowledge, are the best ways to increase in faith. The objective of Revelation is knowing
the last panel data, everything else is a branch of that. So that's the objective of Revelation. The
revelation itself is chorion having the property selected, and then knowing the one who conveyed the
		
00:05:53 --> 00:06:30
			revelation, which is number four, which is knowledge of the prophet SAW Selim his car, his chemin
into the end. So it's important that we, if we were to sum that up, if we were to sum up section
two, which is how do we increase in faith, then we would say that we increase in faith through two
means. One is beneficial knowledge. And the second is righteous actions. And again, that should
always be in our minds, because we need to be looking at every chance you get is what I'm doing
right now.
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:52
			beneficial knowledge is what or gaining beneficial knowledge is what I'm doing right now a righteous
action. If it's not, then my man is not increasing right now. If it is not, the main man is not
increasing right now. And then you have to look at, well, am I doing something that is opposite,
which is
		
00:06:54 --> 00:07:20
			decreasing, or weakening my faith? And so believer never wants to get to that level? Yes, there are
times when you will not be increasing in faith. And that is okay. That is okay. That should not be
the majority of your time, though. When the Prophet sallallahu wasallam told us campaign asides and
facade is a time for this and a time for that isn't going to be a time when you're not doing these
things that are going to make your demand increase to the sky.
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:50
			But that's not the majority of the time. There are times when you just want to be doing things that
are more back, or just permission. And if you can turn those into things that are pleasing to Allah,
Allah, that'd be great. But if not, it's okay. But you don't want to get to the point where you are
doing what we can in your faith when you're doing those things that weaken your faith. And so what
do you think if we could generally categorize the things that we can face What are then
		
00:07:53 --> 00:08:00
			let's sum it up. And to sum it up in two things is we covered it last week, but we kind of glazed
over, so I want to make sure that we
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:02
			get it down this week.
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:05
			Okay, since
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:12
			this will be the same thing.
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:16
			All right. So hold on, let's take a step back. What increases faith
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:43
			beneficial knowledge, righteous actions, okay. So these are the things that strengthen your faith,
the things that weaken your faith are actually the opposite of those. And these are what are known
as the two ways that shaytan enters upon the heart, which are shubho hat and shower what shoe wet,
and shower what so the shoe hacked, which is what
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:59
			if those are doubts, misconceptions, which is the opposite of beneficial knowledge, so those things
which causes a person to have doubt about anything, that he shouldn't be doubting about in his
faith.
		
00:09:01 --> 00:09:03
			So those are shubo hats, that is the
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:22
			unbeneficial knowledge. And then you have Shannon watts, which are you lust in those lowly desires
that cause a person to fall into the opposite of righteous actions, and leads a person down a path
of disobedience and sin.
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:32
			Anytime a person is disobeying Allah subhanho wa Taala, there is a degree of them taking their own,
however,
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:34
			as an Ella,
		
00:09:36 --> 00:10:00
			for them, and it tells her that he la who has not seen the one who was taking his own desires as
his, he left as the one he's worshipping, because at that point, at that point, he is putting his
desires over a loss of habitat, putting his desires overload and that's why is quite important to
know.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:06
			What weakens faith so that you can avoid so that you can avoid? Like?
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:11
			Alright. So they're already following
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:13
			us as long
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:19
			as it'll pull them out now. Right? Questions for less than seven
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:46
			questions for lesson seven? What is the main difference between the second and third sections of
this book? subsection three in two sentences or less? Right? We got that. All right, because I want
you to be able to do this by the end of tonight show there's a man prevent one from entering the
fire.
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:53
			Why don't take a stab at that, as he man prevent one from entering the fire?
		
00:10:56 --> 00:10:56
			Should
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:02
			we all?
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:04
			Okay.
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:54
			All right. All right. Go ahead. And according to the author, what essential quality is necessary to
secure a good life? What is the foundation of all that? Yeah, so So this here, this question here, I
really want you to focus on it. Because, again, and we're talking about this tree of faith. And one
of the and so section three, just so that we're very clear, what is section three about section one
was about defining email number, section two was about developing that email and growing it and
section three is about what? bearing the fruits, the fruits, because now we know what the tree is.
We planted it, we developed it, we want to watch it grow. And then we want to harvest we want to we
		
00:11:54 --> 00:12:22
			want to get the fruits, right. So so one of the fruits that he's going to talk about, is that good
life, she want to live a good life, that I want to be happy I want to I want to taste the sweetness
of of this life, and the sweetness of the next, but what is it that I need to secure good life? And
then on top of that, what is the foundation because there is a relationship between the two
questions? What is the foundation of it's the karma, and what does this the economy?
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:34
			Okay, so for those of you studying Arabic, we say Honey, what's the three letter root? Oh, it's the
comma.
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:46
			We're gonna take off the list, right? Like it's still too far. And that
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:52
			is the font is referred to as the three letter root.
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:54
			It's the comma.
		
00:12:56 --> 00:13:00
			So so so so we have a cough Alif and a mean but it's actually gonna
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:04
			it's gonna be a coffin a yet enemy.
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:07
			So so you have the word
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:12
			straight from the from the outer can of salaat. Right?
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:22
			You face the peddler? Right? Is that? Is that the Battle of Qibla? All right. And then it's what
were you standing up? What's that call? pm?
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:24
			pm.
		
00:13:27 --> 00:14:16
			Right. So it's the karma is like you are you are requesting LPN, you can be something is caught him.
It's upright, it's standing straight. So it's the column is when you scream, when you're on a
straight path. What is the foundation up? Is the column tight? Well, there's a movement that is a
believer. Enjoy. I left it as mcmunn for a reason. Right? Because a mock man is one who has email.
The moment is the one who possesses Amen. So what some blessings does a man enjoy during times of
ease? Which of the two is greater? Yeah. What are the requirements for the validity of one's deeds?
Is it okay?
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:22
			Okay, so So what are the requisites for the validity of one's deeds?
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:34
			It's coming, it's coming. It's coming. How many are there? Let's start there. To I'm glad everybody
said to because it's three. But
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:40
			is it okay to see leadership is the last one.
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:49
			All right. So this is actually the author's introduction to
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:59
			section three. We're going to read it and then we'll summarize some some important points not sure
but the benefits and fruits of faith of the man
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:18
			Many indeed are the fruits and benefits of correct faith, both temporal that is temporarily and
everlasting in body, heart and spirit in this slide, and the next principle indeed are the right
mature fruits of this tree of faith. It's delectable. That means it's a good
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:43
			harvests, perpetual food and enduring good, contain matters that cannot be enumerated can't be
counted, and benefits that cannot be restricted. Right. So let's, let's just stop there. Here the
author, Rahim, Allah Hosanna. And I want to, because I'll probably forget, by the time we get to the
end of the book, but the author,
		
00:15:45 --> 00:15:51
			man, but NASA, sir, you know him a lot. He wrote this book in 1374.
		
00:15:52 --> 00:16:03
			He died in 1376. Right, so this was just two years before he died, that he authored this book. And
you look at that sometimes as,
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:09
			as a scholar, you know, develops in his own right.
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:14
			That is, he reaches a certain level where his knowledge is, is stable.
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:51
			You like those books, and this makes this book really special. And what you're gonna find here, this
collection of, of 18, as he says here, that, that they cannot be enumerated, the benefits of man
cannot be enumerated, the author took a stab at it here and listed 18 not because he's trying to
tell you that these are all of the benefits of faith, but because he wants to give you some of the
fruits that do what if you know, like somebody loves mangoes, right?
		
00:16:52 --> 00:17:37
			Or somebody loves apples, and they say, I can actually have one of those in my backyard, I just have
to plant the tree, then that's an encouragement. That's one of the things that encourages you to
plant that tree. So when you know the benefits of true email, that is one of the things that pushes
you to develop and to grow your faith by just knowing what some of the fruits are, so that the
author here is giving us just a taste of some of the various fruits that come from the tree of Eman.
So that will be more encouraged to grow that tree. And to make sure that it's irrigated properly and
to keep on pushing so that we grow and develop, you understand. So these are the these are some of
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:46
			the points that he's saying that these are all of the points. And the author, like I said, the
author mentions 18, I had to choose eight from the 18.
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:57
			So that we could actually get through them and shell out Tyler today. And I'll tell you as as, as my
shake up the second half, he loves it. He said,
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:42
			The last time I studied this book with him, which are 1435. So that was four years ago. At that
point, he said that he had taught the book 10 times, this was in 1434 years ago, 2014. He said he
taught the book four times, excuse me 10 times. He said, each time I teach it, he said and I
encourage you to level him, I encourage you students of knowledge to read this book frequently.
Don't think that you're going to get everything out of it by reading it once. He said, Don't think
that you're going to get everything out of it. By reading it once you need to read this book
multiple times. And that's when he said, I've taught this book 10 times and each time I teach it, I
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:58
			benefit something from it that I did not get prior to this time. And then he taught it again in
1436. And then he taught it again and 1437, which was two years ago. And I'm not sure I don't think
he started after that. But the point is that that would be number 12.
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:11
			And that he didn't get tired of teaching it. And the reality is, is that the majority of this book,
if you were to look at the words of the book, that the majority of the book is current assume that
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:26
			it's just a matter of categorizing the ads and categorizing the needs of the profit ideas, select to
see them and then looking at the way that he extracts the benefits from. And so I'm saying this now.
So just in case I forget later.
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:59
			Don't stop reading this book. Let what we've done through these last seven weeks, or these last
seven classes, let that be something that opens up the door for you to understand in the book,
right? And then go back and read it yourself. And if you have questions about it, then ask those
questions that you have about and go back and read it again. Because this is what this life is
about. This life is about acquiring faith, developing that faith, reaping those fruits in this life.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:02
			And then we bring them in here after being polite,
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:38
			by way of summary of goodness in this life and the next, and the refresh that is taken down of all
evil in soon as the fruits of this tree so, so again, if we could, if we were going to summarize
chapter or section three, section three is all about the fruits of faith. It's all about the fruits
and the benefits of faith. And as the author here says, everything that is good in this life,
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:45
			everything that is good in this life is a result of email.
		
00:20:46 --> 00:21:37
			And everything that is good in the next life is a result of email, and all a version of evil. And
this life is a result of email, and all a version of evil. And the here Act is a result of email. So
there's no way that we can sit up here and actually enumerate the fruits of faith. But as you'll
see, in Shalom, tada, the ones that we've chosen in the lab will at least open up the door for us to
see how in reality, everything that is good in this life in the next goes back to the man and
everything, all the version of evil in this life in the next hour from the fruits of district. Now
this is because when the tree is implanted family, its roots become strong, its branches, this tent,
		
00:21:37 --> 00:21:51
			that means stretch out and blast them and it fruits ripen, it brings benefit both to its owner, and
those around it. So panela. So what we're going to see here and shout out to Adam,
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:55
			you know,
		
00:21:59 --> 00:22:07
			even on a regular tree, like a tree with that, that has fruits like mango or an app or something
like that.
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:14
			Does air is everybody able to benefit from that tree in the same way?
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:15
			Why not?
		
00:22:21 --> 00:22:23
			Okay, people have different tastes.
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:28
			No, no, let's say the person loves the fruit.
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:49
			Sorry, body, body composition is different. So this person is tall, he just goes like this, he pulls
it down, another person is short, he needs something else to be able to benefit from, from the tree.
Because of his body composition. There are other people who do what
		
00:22:51 --> 00:23:30
			they don't just like it, they sell it to other people. Right? They may manufacture, they may have a
multitude of trees, and this person only has one. So when we talk about Amen, it's similar. Not all
people are going to benefit from the tree of man the same way. And that's because people vary in
their degree of email. And so just like in the Hereafter, I don't know if you remember one of the
first lessons that we covered first, the second lesson that we covered the Hadith where the Prophet
sallallahu wasallam talked about the levels of the believers agenda.
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:52
			And that some of them would be looking at others as if they were distant stars. The prophets of
light his son of said one liter fou, GMO liter follow me here. Yeah, because of their varying levels
of Amen. That is how they learn to hear likewise, in this dunya when we talk about the fruits,
		
00:23:53 --> 00:24:02
			not all of the believers want to get all of those foods, and not all of them they get the fruit are
going to be able to benefit it benefit from it in the same manner.
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:24
			And I hope that's clear and inshallah to become clear as we go around tight. Just to summarize real
quick at the bottom, what you see here we see the branches, two branches of the man versus that is
on the other hand, the fruits of Emacs. Alright, so here we're gonna cover that. So if we if we look
at if we look at here where it says developing and
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:29
			developing and increasing, amen.
		
00:24:31 --> 00:24:34
			Next to that, it says a human action, right?
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:37
			You see, right here, it's not in your book. You don't have to worry.
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:50
			Okay, it says developing and increasing. Amen. That's a human action. In other words, you are
required to do something to do what to develop
		
00:24:51 --> 00:24:52
			your faith.
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:56
			Okay. But the fruits of me, man.
		
00:24:58 --> 00:25:00
			These are the rewards from that. No
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:22
			rewards come from a loss of habitat. So we look at the major difference between section two and
section three. And that's why I told you, we're going to spend the majority of the time on what, on
section two, because that's what you have to do. So we have to do, we have to take part in, in
growing and developing our faith, of course, asking the last mentality to aid and assist.
		
00:25:24 --> 00:25:35
			And to make it easy for us, right, but the fruits are more that we know what Allah Subhana, Allah
will reward those who do number two,
		
00:25:36 --> 00:25:47
			those who strive to develop and grow their faith, this is going to be their reward. And by knowing
the fruits, inshallah, it will also be a reminder for us of the importance of section two.
		
00:25:48 --> 00:25:57
			And remind us of what our dispositions should be, should be at certain times, if, in fact, we are
our believers. So, just to summarize there,
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:09
			it says the benefits vary greatly from person to person, which we just talked about the benefits
that a person gets from a man, the fruits that they get, vary greatly from person to person, why,
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:35
			based on their level of email, based on a level of email, number two, that the fruits of emails are
innumerable, which we spoke about. And number three, that this list is unique. And what I mean by
that is that I'm not aware of any other book that you can just pick up, especially not a book of
this size that you can pick up that is going to list for you, the fruits of faith
		
00:26:37 --> 00:26:56
			spoke especially, and I am not, you know, one to have given it its do. But I hope that at least
it'll be an encouragement for you to read it again, and again, and inshallah maybe at a later date,
you know, we'll go We'll come back and revisit it and teach it again.
		
00:26:59 --> 00:27:03
			So, again, I was a bit selective.
		
00:27:04 --> 00:27:37
			Like I said, the shake mentioned 18, some of them I combined, because not because they're exactly
the same, but because they're similar enough, that we can read them together and come out with the
with the comprehensive benefit neatly laid out. So we're going to start with number one, which is
also number one in the book, which is attaining that we lie of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And that's
on page 63. So if you have your books, I would recommend that you open your books and read along
because we're going to do a little bit of skipping, attaining to rely
		
00:27:38 --> 00:28:12
			upon the greatest, the greatest of all matters, that is to be paid for is this and the most noble of
all matters to be acquired by those granted the divine order. Is this meaning the desire of the law,
Exalted It seems as she translation meets, yes, indeed, the Friends of a law will feel no fear and
will no no. So those who have faith and show up now, so So here
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:17
			the author begins by mentioning
		
00:28:19 --> 00:28:26
			that the first fruit of faith is that one attains a lie
		
00:28:27 --> 00:28:29
			and lie lie.
		
00:28:32 --> 00:28:53
			It means that a person is under the that special guardianship, that they have a special relationship
with the loss of Hannah who were to Anna. And so Alonzo ajob says here, Allah in Odia Allah let hold
finale him while
		
00:28:54 --> 00:29:05
			the only air of a law the only ad that's the plural of Wali, in the world he is one who has attained
we lie that they won't have any fear.
		
00:29:07 --> 00:29:12
			That hopeful knowledge and he they won't have any fear for what is in front of them.
		
00:29:14 --> 00:29:59
			Well known and they don't have any sorrow for that which has happened in the past. What is the
description of the ODF alladhina M and who they are those who have he meant? Well cat who yet to
who. And they had taqwa as well, he man and a tough one. And a tough was actually a part of a part
of he man. And tough one it is mentioned along with the man or as mentioned along with Biff, it
refers to staying away from that which is displeasing to Allah subhanho wa Taala right, which is why
some people translate it as fearing Allah.
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:22
			Because that fear prompts them to stay away from that which is displeasing to a loss of habitat. And
so, when it is mentioned by itself taqwa is inclusive a bit is inclusive of men. And these words are
used like that as we talked about earlier with a man and an AMA sada or faith and righteous actions,
keep reading.
		
00:30:25 --> 00:30:43
			Keep reading, page 64 just keep reading. Therefore, every therefore every pious God fearing believer
is a wealthy friend and protector of the law being been gifted with the specific special reliance on
law says about
		
00:30:45 --> 00:30:48
			Allahumma Li You live in New York
		
00:30:50 --> 00:30:51
			City
		
00:30:57 --> 00:31:04
			a lot is a friend and protector of those who have faith. He brings them out of the darkness into the
light a lot
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:11
			that is, he stands for is that means that is he leads them out of the darkness that this
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:20
			writing a love will lead you levina Amman Allah is the one
		
00:31:21 --> 00:31:56
			of those who have email those who have email and in the drive the practice of law it was some of
them. He says a llama ax enough seat. Tuck wha ha was that Kiha enter a woman's occur and will lead
you have one molar and really you should memorize this do i do is really important. Allahumma adds
enough. See taqwa Let's just go. He's saying Oh Allah. x enough scene. Give my knifes it's taqwa.
		
00:31:57 --> 00:32:10
			Aunty necesita Oh Allah. Give me taqwa. And make me a mug. tukey was that Kiha enter Hiram as a cat,
purify it and purify my soul.
		
00:32:11 --> 00:32:14
			You are the best of those who purified
		
00:32:15 --> 00:32:33
			and will lead you. You are the worldly of manifests. Until then you have one more left hand and it's
guardian. So you are you are the one lead of my left. And this is interesting because what is a
wedding?
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:46
			It's that it's that special friend, it's a special. So, like and you look at these two names of
Allah subhanaw taala By the way, and Wali and the molar
		
00:32:47 --> 00:33:09
			and the meaning of that is that Eliza will just get to what Allah lacked a moment and he he protects
his believing servant, and this inshallah when we when we do get to the next course inshallah which
begins on September the
		
00:33:10 --> 00:33:11
			23rd.
		
00:33:14 --> 00:33:27
			It's the I think is the 18th inshallah, September 18, is when the next course 10 weeks inshallah we
deal with the smell of a Lost Planet and some of you see that
		
00:33:28 --> 00:33:52
			we're going to cover the molar and the Wali with the land, but just to know right now, that from the
meanings is that Eliza Joe protects his believing servants and he, he gives them that divine aid so
that they worship him properly and that they and that they are truly His servants of Hannah who
what's Adam
		
00:33:53 --> 00:33:54

			at enough cetak wha Ha.
		
00:33:59 --> 00:34:00
			Was that key here?
		
00:34:01 --> 00:34:03
			And hi Roman is a cat.
		
00:34:06 --> 00:34:07
			And Willie you have
		
00:34:09 --> 00:34:10
			one Mola
		
00:34:12 --> 00:34:16
			toy where it is where is it a lot.
		
00:34:17 --> 00:34:20
			But it should it's not hard to find. It's in every book.
		
00:34:23 --> 00:34:25
			As soon as I see,
		
00:34:26 --> 00:34:27
			play,
		
00:34:30 --> 00:34:32
			not not keep out of the darkness,
		
00:34:33 --> 00:34:55
			into the light of faith, from the darkness of ignorance into the light of knowledge, from the
darkness of sin into the light of the videos from the darkness of negligence into the light of
wakefulness and the darkness of all evil to that which would be moving up the light of good right so
here, so here the the author,
		
00:34:56 --> 00:34:59
			Rahim Allah to Allah, he goes on to kind of
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:43
			Just itemize certain aspects of darkness and then the opposite, because a lot of times it guides
them to the light. So he takes them away from the darkness of Kufa of disbelief in him or of idol
worship. And he brings them into the light of Eman. And he takes them out of the darkness of
ignorance into the light of what knowledge. And he takes them out of the darkness of disobedience
and sin into the light of obedience and pleasing Him. subhanho wa Taala any any mentioned here and I
think this part is important to it's very important that he mentioned it, and that is that he takes
them out of the darkness of negligence.
		
00:35:44 --> 00:36:25
			Because sometimes it's not that a person is just sitting or that a person, but it's just that they
heatless but they're not conscious of a loss. And so he brings them to a state of consciousness,
that they're alert. And you see what happens in Ramadan, right? When a person is striving you
because there's this heightened awareness of other loves hematite, that doesn't exist for another
time. So you never want to get to a point where you're just totally negligent, and totally heatless
and totally not remembering Allah subhanho wa Taala because that is what is going to lead to the
other things, disobedience and otherwise. So this is what the author talks about here. And in his
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:26
			tafsir
		
00:36:28 --> 00:36:36
			of the previous ayah, which is on the board here with says, No, we have a lot less hope when I lay
him without him yes or no.
		
00:36:38 --> 00:36:47
			He says that when if a person has no fear, and they have no grief, then the opposite of that is that
they're going to have what
		
00:36:49 --> 00:37:24
			are they going to have security, they're going to feel secure. They're going to have that emin that
safety that they're looking for, and they're not going to have any sorrow, which means that they're
going to have happiness. And so the only act of Allah, Allah azza wa jal blesses them with those
feelings of security, feelings of happiness. This is a gift from philosophy and data. And it's from
the tree of men. And the people who don't have a man, they won't have that they're not going to
have. There's going to be something empty that they're searching for, and they just won't have man.
		
00:37:26 --> 00:37:35
			nachi there's a lot that can be said with life. However, they only reserved this precious gift by
virtue of their correct fate, right.
		
00:37:36 --> 00:38:25
			And their actual lives and get through tough quad for taqwa is from the completion of faith, as has
been previously discussed, okay, look directly right now, at the next page, page 65. towards the
bottom, it says a lot of defense, the money No, and the reason why we're not going to read this, the
whole point part there, but the point is, yeah, go ahead. Just read it. He presses from them all the
thing that like all the things we dislike, and delivers them from all pages of law. Exalted is He
says, translation means a law will defend those who have faith, right, he will defend them by saving
them from all that they will dislike the evil of the team, and then from the attacks of their
		
00:38:25 --> 00:38:57
			enemies, he will defend them by repressing harm from affecting them, or, or lightening lightening it
or removing it after it as affected. So you, you, I want you all to go on and read these, read this
part. But it's very close, once a person attains that we liar of Allah subhanho wa Taala, that they
will get that portion meaning that Allah Subhana Allah becomes their, their protector, and so he's
going to defend them.
		
00:38:58 --> 00:39:47
			And this is why, you know, it's very important that sometimes you have to take a step back, it
doesn't mean that you shouldn't defend your own honor, it does not mean that obviously that it is a
physical altercation that you need to defend yourself or your family that you don't do. So that's
something that you have to measure at that same time. But also to recognize that many times, you
throw off a loss of habitat is defense of you. Because you want to defend yourself. You're not
accepting Eliza gel as being your one. You're not so now you become the one who's going to defend
yourself and a lot of times, it's a very fine line between Are you defending yourself for a slam?
		
00:39:47 --> 00:39:59
			Are you defending yourself because of your ego? And is it actually that you are doing something that
is self serving? And so it's very important that that a person walks that fine line and strive
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:13
			To be from a loss Odia because of your from allows Olia min Ed Lee, in fact as into will have a loss
for dialysis. Whoever harms a will Lee of mine
		
00:40:14 --> 00:40:33
			then I am announcing war I'm declaring war against and a philosopher declares war against somebody
you can forget it. And so it's important that a person really strives that they become from the ODM
allies with them. Because if you get to that level, you really don't have anything to worry about.
		
00:40:38 --> 00:40:41
			national security front, page 65.
		
00:40:46 --> 00:41:19
			Just read just read from here, it rings straight from security from the fire, faith, even if it even
if it is little, prevents one from eternity from an eternity in the fire. Whoever has complete faith
says that he he or she fulfills the obligations and leaves the prohibitions will not enter the fire.
So we have two different we have two different issues here. We have complete faith, and we have
faith.
		
00:41:20 --> 00:41:39
			Those who have complete faith, if a person has complete faith, there are two things that the author
here mentions that that are going to happen. Number one, he's going to fulfill all of the
requirements that he has. And he's going to avoid the prohibitions. And so if he fulfills the
		
00:41:41 --> 00:41:44
			requirements, the things that are lost, cansada has obligated.
		
00:41:45 --> 00:41:57
			And he stays away from that which Allah subhanaw taala has prohibited, then he has completed faith.
However, that does not mean that that completion of faith is complete.
		
00:41:58 --> 00:42:28
			Meaning that there are even levels of that, as we talked about, right, we talked about the believers
being three different levels, volume and enough see those who oppress themselves. And notice it is
the one who travels the middle course, the middle course has completed faith. The one who travels
the middle course has completed faith, he won't enter the fire at all. He doesn't enter the fire at
all, was savvy corner, it will pay off and those who raised to do good.
		
00:42:30 --> 00:42:40
			Those are on another level of having completed faith. And even then they vary significantly, because
a person who stays away from all of his heart.
		
00:42:41 --> 00:42:49
			And he does all of that which is required of him. And he also prays, for example, 12 extra rackets
in a day,
		
00:42:51 --> 00:43:14
			okay, and he gives others every now and then. And he makes it from time to time. And he makes highs
every five years, and he's good to his parents and so forth. Right? This person is the seventh bill
came out. But he's not like the one who makes Hajj every year, and aamra, twice a year. And along
with the 12 rakats He also prays
		
00:43:15 --> 00:43:53
			pmln, and he does do him and he gives satirical on a daily basis. And he's good to his parents in a
way that that person is not. That's another level but they're both Savage, but again, and so that's
why we talk about those different levels and gentlemen, that's going to be based on a person's
actualization of faith in this life. And so faith even if, even if it is little, the smallest amount
of faith prevents a person from eternity in the fire. But it does not necessarily prevent a person
from entering the fire. Well, the other we left
		
00:43:55 --> 00:44:03
			because we don't have the ability to there's no patience with the fire. There's no I can I can take
you
		
00:44:05 --> 00:44:28
			know, not even for not even for the blink of an eye. And so, but but because of the the strength of
men, and because of how blessed that fruit is. It prevents one from eternity in the Hellfire and
those who had complete faith will not ever enter the fire at all.
		
00:44:30 --> 00:44:30
			That's a lie.
		
00:44:31 --> 00:44:33
			Jilin means
		
00:44:34 --> 00:44:36
			the complete believers with complete faith.
		
00:45:16 --> 00:45:16
			followship
		
00:45:20 --> 00:45:20
			Go ahead.
		
00:45:21 --> 00:45:24
			This, this has been narrated via
		
00:45:26 --> 00:45:44
			continuous reports from the Prophet alayhi salaatu wa Salaam, just as it is reported from him, that
none would remain eternally in the fire, who has even a little bit of faith in his heart, right. And
here, what we have to understand
		
00:45:45 --> 00:45:52
			is that the man that is being talked about here is the man that we talked about in the first section
of the book.
		
00:45:54 --> 00:46:01
			Because there are some people who claim to have a man, but the man is not going to benefit them at
all.
		
00:46:02 --> 00:46:47
			This is we're not talking about a little bit of faith from those types of people will let me know at
some of them belay in level home must be cool. Allah Subhana, Allah said that the majority of them
will not believe in Allah, except that they are emotionally cool and accepted their idol worshipers.
And so there's faith and then there are things that nullify a person's email. And those things have
to be avoided in totality, in order for the faith, for that man to have any benefit. And so he man
along with shirt does not benefit the person who claims to have faith and that's why it's very
important for us to understand this point. There's a lot of people that say, Oh, I believe in God.
		
00:46:48 --> 00:46:58
			But that's not the face we're talking about here. We're talking about the man of Latin Latin Allah,
Mohammed Rasulullah. Because what do we say that the basis of faith is what?
		
00:46:59 --> 00:47:47
			faith that is? Where? In the heart, okay, and then we said that is coal, alcohol, that is the
statement of the heart and what is that statement of the heart? La Ilaha Illa shadow 199 Allah was
shadow Mohammedan Rasulullah. So if a person doesn't have that, and understand what that means is
that that prevents idolatry and those other things that nullify Amen, then it doesn't benefit them
does not benefit them. I hope that's clear. Because not everybody that says that they are a
believer, that belief or that belief or their Amen, is not necessarily going to prevent them from
eternity in the fire if it did not make them actually Muslim in this life.
		
00:47:49 --> 00:47:58
			So, those are some of the topics that we covered when we before when we talked about tech fear and
what takes a person outside of the fold of Islam
		
00:47:59 --> 00:48:05
			which would be a whole nother discussion that is much longer than what we intended in this in this
particular
		
00:48:06 --> 00:48:13
			study inshallah, types in peace of mind. Okay. Okay, go to page 67.
		
00:48:15 --> 00:48:17
			PAGE 67. Correct.
		
00:48:19 --> 00:48:21
			The the translator
		
00:48:22 --> 00:48:40
			here says a good life in this world and the next, which is correct. That's not, that's not wrong.
But if you want to look at what the fruit is, here, the fruit is peace of mind. That you get peace
of mind that as a result of your email.
		
00:48:41 --> 00:48:49
			You now have tranquility in your heart and peace of mind. Allah Subhana Allah says men, Amina Saudi
		
00:48:50 --> 00:49:01
			men, they're carrying a wound there. Well, who am I mean? Well Hua men look at that anyone who does
righteous deeds,
		
00:49:03 --> 00:49:08
			male or female, being a believer, that is, he is a
		
00:49:09 --> 00:49:12
			follower nor yet know who he is and
		
00:49:13 --> 00:49:24
			then we will give him a good life. Then we will get him a good life. What what what what conditions
did he lay out for the good life? says what?
		
00:49:26 --> 00:49:28
			No allama Sati
		
00:49:29 --> 00:49:59
			righteous deeds and and he man righteous deeds and email. If you have those, you'll have a a good
life. Hi, Adam tayyiba one an agency yet know whom as your home, be accent American. Yeah, I'm alone
and we will give them the reward of that. We will give them the reward for what they have done,
according to the best of what they used to do. Whereas that reward that he's talking about
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:01
			The last part of the I,
		
00:50:02 --> 00:50:58
			a, you are exactly in the here Act and the hereafter. All right, so he says, He says we will give
them a good life, that's where now, and we will reward them according to the best of what they used
to do in the hereafter. So that's why he says a good life in this world. And the next pipe we read
with read the this is because this is because they have genders that means helps to grow peace and
tranquility of the heart contentment with that which allows provided money with and has, he is not
being dependent on any other. This is good, like in the truest sense of the word. Right. And so,
then there is a part that the translator missed, and it comes in Arabic. And it's the part where at
		
00:50:58 --> 00:51:06
			the bottom where it says the foundation of the good life is peace of mind. In the absence of
confusion and doubt,
		
00:51:07 --> 00:51:19
			the foundation of the good life or you see, it's there. The foundation of the good life is peace of
mind, in the absence of confusion and doubt.
		
00:51:30 --> 00:51:32
			It's not in the eggs they didn't translate.
		
00:51:33 --> 00:51:58
			It's there and it was missed. But But I think that sentence is it's it's imperative. I think it's
one of the most important parts of the book. And that is that the foundation of the good of good
life is peace of mind when we talk about when the yen who has and the law says we will give him a
good life, if he does what
		
00:51:59 --> 00:52:17
			has faith and righteous actions as we know righteous actions are part of Amen. So it all goes back
to the email. If you want a good life, that good life is predicated on a man but what is a good life
mean? It means that a law gives you peace of mind.
		
00:52:21 --> 00:52:24
			It says ultimate men will either let me see he says
		
00:52:28 --> 00:52:30
			Right. Which page?
		
00:52:34 --> 00:52:36
			Oh, wow. Okay.
		
00:52:37 --> 00:52:43
			Anyway, what caught up in us in labor law had to be what's on that Nina two.
		
00:52:45 --> 00:52:51
			Right. So I took the liberty of translating peace of mind, right? So
		
00:52:54 --> 00:53:13
			why them? Why the motorshow wushi? Right. Because here, here he talks about the confusion. And the
doubt that comes to the person who is faster than the man, the one who doesn't have any faith, the
one who has no he man, he's going to be confused all the time.
		
00:53:14 --> 00:53:17
			And the doubts are going to come. And there's a term
		
00:53:19 --> 00:53:37
			just to and then we're going to we're going to skip to page 79 because there's a connection here.
But the the idea of, of keeping one confused, right? This is there's a term is a term called
gaslighting you've ever heard of
		
00:53:39 --> 00:54:00
			a manipulator, a manipulation tool that is used by dictators and narcissists and other people who
want to control people. And, and part of that is keeping them confused about their own identity
about their own well being. So for example, the person has lies to your face.
		
00:54:01 --> 00:54:02
			And you know, they're lying.
		
00:54:04 --> 00:54:10
			But they're so bold about it, that you start questioning yourself, because if this person was lying,
		
00:54:12 --> 00:54:33
			what How can he do it like this? Like I couldn't do that. If I was lying to somebody, I couldn't do
it the way he's doing it. And so you start questioning and they do it so many times. It leaves you
what, always off kilter. But then they tell you the truth sometimes compliment you other times. So
what happens when you deal with this person, you're always off balance always can be and that's how
you manipulate.
		
00:54:34 --> 00:54:59
			The human being naturally wants stability, you want to be not confused. And the only way that comes
is through email. That's the only way it comes. And this is how you get that good life. You know,
the good life is much more mental than it is physical. Much more mental than it is physical, which
is why you can find people who have many possessions
		
00:55:00 --> 00:55:28
			They're not happy. And you can find people, yes, there is a certain level, according to the science,
if you will, is a certain level that a person needs to have. That is their basic needs and things
like this, if a person doesn't have them, a lot of times will be very difficult for them to be
happy, right? But the point is that you'll find that people with a lot less means, and you'll find
them very happy. And find them very happy.
		
00:55:30 --> 00:55:43
			I know a person who was very into material, things, thought that they needed to have all of this and
they wanted to have this in the best car and the best. And then they traveled to a third world
country.
		
00:55:46 --> 00:55:49
			And came back and told him, I said, I've never seen the people. So I
		
00:55:52 --> 00:56:00
			said, their, their house, their houses are like rooms in this country, the whole house is like a
room in this country.
		
00:56:02 --> 00:56:17
			The entire house could fit in the living room of this particular person. They walk everywhere, very
few of them have cars, and when they do have cars, these are not, you know, the luxury, or, but
they're very happy people.
		
00:56:18 --> 00:56:34
			So panela, and it was a Muslim country, the third world country was a Muslim country. But the point
is that, that it is not the material that creates the the peace of mind. And that tranquility in the
heart.
		
00:56:36 --> 00:57:01
			And it definitely doesn't bring about the absence of confusion, like so. So we see the importance of
having peace of mind. And in order to have a good life. And that is that is the result of one's
email that allows fantastic gives them that because because what it is their faith that connects
them to a loss of habitat, and that connection is what gives them that peace of mind. Go to page 79
quickly showing them
		
00:57:03 --> 00:57:06
			and we'll talk about how that ties in to this.
		
00:57:09 --> 00:57:21
			Three 315 right, yeah, doubts are laid to rest. translations reads the believers are only those who
have had faith in Allah and His Messenger in animal meaning.
		
00:57:23 --> 00:57:27
			He was who he meant millennia the taboo
		
00:57:31 --> 00:58:05
			that's plagued many people are transitioning to believers are only those who have faith have had
faith in Allah and His Messenger, and then have had no doubt, doubts plague many people end up being
a detriment to their religion, however correct faith represses, puts out, clamps down all down, and
D it faces it that makes it disappear altogether. Faith comes to the last sentence This is why is
establishing the two sides. This is why it is established in the two Sophie's on the authority of
Abu huraira
		
00:58:06 --> 00:58:51
			that the Prophet alayhi salaatu wa Salaam said, people will persist in asking questions until it
will be said a law created the creation. So who created the law upon this say, I believe in a law
and then the system and take refuge with a law of shape. All right. So the prophet SAW you sort of
mentioned three ways to cure this destructive disease number one desisting from continuing these
whispers of shape line number two taking refuge in the evil of one who the one who implanted them
that is the shape and number three holding firm to the protection of correct faith by saying I am
meant to be loved and to be loved I have believed in Allah, whoever seeks protection with it will be
		
00:58:51 --> 00:59:40
			from those who are made secure. So here what we see is the author is talking about the doubts.
Right? Here we how does how does one attain a good life? Through A through E man? The opposite of
that? is is that is Cofer obviously, but that cover starts with what it starts with that doubt. And
so the reason why I brought this up is because what happens is as the as the hubby's mentions, a
person will continue to ask, okay, who created this who created your parents who created them? Okay,
and so that until they say, Okay, well, we'll create it. Hello. Which is it? Which is a question.
That's like saying, How How, how can there be a round circle? I mean, how can it be a round square?
		
00:59:40 --> 00:59:44
			I mean, it doesn't work. The question itself doesn't work. But that's
		
00:59:46 --> 00:59:59
			the question itself is nonsensical, but we can deal with that at a different time because that
wasn't the point of bringing this up. The issue is, the issue is that number one, and this is
important here. A person
		
01:00:00 --> 01:00:03
			Who wants a good life should not subject himself to doubt.
		
01:00:04 --> 01:00:45
			That is don't put yourself in a position where you feel like my man is strong, and I'm ready to just
debate with anybody and I can handle the greatest, you know, the Vader's No, don't put yourself in
that position in the first place. And for those of you have children in, in your children are going
to college and these type of things, to put them in the class, I'm telling you, I'm telling you,
because this is from experience, not from the law, not long children, but from helping other people.
Those philosophy classes are problematic, especially for the children do not have firm faith. And
so, they go in and they will make a person questioning their own existence.
		
01:00:46 --> 01:00:51
			How do you know that you exist? How do you know that you are not a figment of your own imagination?
		
01:00:53 --> 01:01:21
			I mean, know that this is the because philosophy is there to push those limits. And so, a person
comes out many times, many times having, at the very least doubt about their faith. Right. So don't
subject yourself to that's number one. But number two, and this is also what I wanted to discuss
here. Is that the root
		
01:01:22 --> 01:01:29
			of your SD karma of being upright in your deen is the ability to control your thoughts.
		
01:01:32 --> 01:02:02
			That is even Okay, and Rahim Allah Allah talks about he talks about in a very important book of his
called to the calendula team. He talks about the root of karma, what is the foundation of being
upright, it is the ability to control your thoughts. Because it is your thoughts from which your
actions are bred because thoughts turn into intentions, and intentions turn into determination, and
determination turns into action.
		
01:02:03 --> 01:02:12
			And so if a person has the ability, so what happens initially, is that all of us get thoughts,
right? So we get these,
		
01:02:13 --> 01:02:16
			or we get these what's before a thought.
		
01:02:18 --> 01:02:31
			You just get passing ideas, whatever it comes to your mind. Okay? You can choose to allow yourself
to continue thinking about that thing. Or you can stop
		
01:02:33 --> 01:02:40
			and see, so every evil act started out as a passing thought that you entertained.
		
01:02:41 --> 01:02:43
			I wonder what it would be like to be with her.
		
01:02:46 --> 01:02:47
			And then you think a little more?
		
01:02:48 --> 01:02:53
			And then that thought turns into Uh huh, maybe I should get the number.
		
01:02:55 --> 01:02:56
			And then
		
01:02:57 --> 01:03:19
			you say, but if you just cut that all out to be learning less, I'm not even thinking about that. If
I think about it is going to open up the door, to do what, for me to start to intend something. And
then you have to and then once something becomes an intention, it takes a lot more to repress it.
		
01:03:21 --> 01:03:41
			You understand what something actually is like, I'm intending to do this thing, even though our
lives which are out of his mercy, if you intended to do something was wrong, and then you stopped
yourself is written as a, as a good deed. Allahu Akbar, Allah gives you all the way up until there
to reward you for not doing something that is he
		
01:03:42 --> 01:03:47
			out of his mercy somehow what's happening, but but the believer, luck, he
		
01:03:50 --> 01:03:52
			learn how to control those thoughts. They come.
		
01:03:53 --> 01:04:02
			You let them go. Don't entertain something that is not pleasing to Allah. And to know that Allah
knows what you are thinking
		
01:04:03 --> 01:04:06
			is important, because then you should have some hair.
		
01:04:08 --> 01:04:18
			That's where the shame comes. Is that just the shame that comes from doing some because you could
sit in a room with somebody and totally have a whole heroin encounter
		
01:04:19 --> 01:04:25
			in your mind. And the person never knows. And they sit up there, they think that you you're
listening to the cookbook.
		
01:04:27 --> 01:04:29
			You have a whole something going on
		
01:04:32 --> 01:04:32
			the person
		
01:04:40 --> 01:04:47
			but it's true. But But the reality is if you have higher if you have real shame,
		
01:04:48 --> 01:04:59
			if you have that real bashfulness in it, and you're shy, you're shy to think about what is hard
because you know along those what you're thinking
		
01:05:00 --> 01:05:04
			So that is right. I think this might be when it goes out.
		
01:05:06 --> 01:05:07
			See it went out here.
		
01:05:09 --> 01:05:12
			It should be orange, just make sure that they can still see.
		
01:05:17 --> 01:05:18
			So we have us
		
01:05:23 --> 01:05:26
			up to this point system guarantees
		
01:05:28 --> 01:05:29
			the challenges
		
01:05:30 --> 01:05:30
			we
		
01:05:33 --> 01:05:34
			face
		
01:05:35 --> 01:05:36
			from the challenge
		
01:05:40 --> 01:05:40
			you're ready.
		
01:05:43 --> 01:05:44
			Again,
		
01:05:45 --> 01:05:49
			to continue the continued faith
		
01:05:51 --> 01:05:59
			is challenged. Yes, but each individual day no matter how strong is continuous challenge to date.
		
01:06:01 --> 01:06:27
			Right. So it's not guaranteed daily that you can be continuously thankful you can end up in the
Hellfire Southern dispatch. Right. And so Zack a little Halo for that point. And that is that is why
just in this is why if you think about it, like you think about a tree or you think about it, like
you think about a plant, that plant needs constant,
		
01:06:29 --> 01:07:08
			constant irrigation, it needs to be looked at over constantly, even if you don't have to water it
every day, you might have to pull up the weed, you might have to take the IV off, you might have to
make sure that it's in a certain that is getting a certain amount of sunlight. You have to cultivate
that. And that's that faith and this is why I love having to either in order to help us preserve our
faith because a lot of wisdom does not benefit from our worship he prescribed that we pray five
times a day. That's part of that protected that because that prayer in the lies we don't call prayer
in the Quran what he called an email back Hello, do you do amen and comm along with not cause your
		
01:07:08 --> 01:07:31
			email to go to waste meaning your salon, that salon is the greatest pillar of Islam after the shine
of team it is that constant nourishment of that of thing. But the point is definitely well taken and
it's correct. And that is that that is that without constant nourishment that the tree will die.
		
01:07:33 --> 01:07:41
			And so and your faith is like that tree and so you do have to be on top of we have 13 minutes, I
don't know how we're gonna do this Bismillah fellowship,
		
01:07:43 --> 01:07:51
			below validity and perfection of Dean's law says translation means but as for anyone who designs the
Hereafter,
		
01:07:52 --> 01:08:20
			and strives for for it, with its striving it deserves being a believer to striving as such people
will be gratefully acknowledged, right? striving for continuing to please striving for the hereafter
implies enacting all that will draw one close to its comprising up to it comprising all those
actions close to it comprising all those actions that Alliance legislated upon the tongue behind the
adage.
		
01:08:22 --> 01:08:51
			However, if these actions are missing the essential component thing, even if one were to devote, you
got even a one word to devote himself to performing these day and night, they are unacceptable. So
So in other words, and we'll just go through this quite quickly, like I said, brothers and sisters,
you got to read this book and you got to take it go back to the beginning, soak it in, read it with
someone perhaps because a lot of times that that helps for it to sink in when you read with
somebody.
		
01:08:53 --> 01:09:06
			So, here the point is that imen is a is the main condition or prerequisite, if you will, for
		
01:09:07 --> 01:09:40
			deeds being valid, and then the more that the man increases, the more one is rewarded for those
these because the deeds become more correct more or they reach a level of completion or perfection.
So here, the author brings the statement of a loss of data. He says women are either fuma woman or
other Angela for he who wants the hereafter
		
01:09:42 --> 01:10:00
			meaning that the deeds that a person does, he does not do them desiring any reward in this life. He
does them desiring the reward from Allah. So his deeds are sincere. So the first condition mentioned
here is an
		
01:10:00 --> 01:10:09
			class, in a person does whatever he does, sincerely for Allah Subhana data, he doesn't want his
reward here.
		
01:10:11 --> 01:10:21
			The person who shows off doing the deed, they want to be what praised. And praise is a reward in
this life.
		
01:10:22 --> 01:10:36
			Not a reward in the hereafter. So that excludes them from this woman, Ananda and he who wants the
hereafter was Salah has Satya hair
		
01:10:37 --> 01:10:41
			and he strives for it appropriately,
		
01:10:42 --> 01:11:26
			as the scholars of Tafseer have mentioned, that this means that they do it according to according to
what Allah has legislated upon the tongue of the Prophet alayhi salatu salam So in other words, the
deed is sincere, and it complies to the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu it was
something so we have a class antibac right here sincerity and following the Sunnah of the Prophet it
is those are two. But number three is what who I mean? Well, hello meant that he has to be a
believer, this person has to so it is conceivable. it is conceivable that a person would perform
Hajj
		
01:11:28 --> 01:11:32
			they do it as the Prophet is allowed to Sadam D.
		
01:11:33 --> 01:11:43
			And in that particular instance of doing it, they're not looking for any worldly reward they want to
reward in the hereafter. But when they perform the Hajj they were not
		
01:11:44 --> 01:11:45
			in the fold of Islam.
		
01:11:46 --> 01:11:57
			They just went out maybe they worked for CNN, for example. They just want to follow they got a crew
with them following them again, but they themselves are not looking for any worldly gain from it.
		
01:12:00 --> 01:12:08
			I'll give you another example. The ones that are out as a lost friends, Allah talks about them in
the Quran. He says that
		
01:12:09 --> 01:12:16
			either rocky bofill fully there I will lie mostly seen another day, when they are out there on that
boat.
		
01:12:17 --> 01:12:31
			And the waves are coming strong. And maybe their boat is going to be capsized. They say what thou
will law must be seen Allah they call upon a love must be sung with true sincerity.
		
01:12:33 --> 01:12:41
			Is the deed accepted? Allow me to answer that do I. But that doesn't mean that they did. The deed
itself is accepted from them.
		
01:12:42 --> 01:12:46
			alliances didn't do it. Christians, Jews, Buddhists.
		
01:12:47 --> 01:12:48
			It's true.
		
01:12:49 --> 01:13:28
			A lot of people's do ours, a lot of people's prayers are answered. And those ones be they called
upon a law with sincerity. It was a it was what it was answered. But that doesn't mean that the deed
is accepted. That means that there's no reward for them for that deed in the hereafter. And this is
why the author brings the next statement, he says. So he says, however, these actions are missing
the essential component of Amen. Even if one were to devote himself to performing these day and
night they are unacceptable. A loss of health data says we'll could do that. Either. I'm either the
nominee for jalna who have gotten through it all, we will come to the actions that they have done
		
01:13:29 --> 01:14:18
			and they will be like and we will make them like scattered dust make them like scattered dust. And
there has to be more talk on that subject later. But the point is that it is only the believers
whose deeds will be accepted by a lot of Hannah hotel and that next, gratitude and guidance,
gratitude and patience, right a lot of guys want to be street 3.7 is that Allah Allah guides the one
with Amen. to the straight path, right? And 3.8 is comfort during adversity. Eliza gel will allow
the man to comfort them at times of adversity, right? gratitude doing ease patients with a
personality type. So we're going to read very little of this but let's just go to page 70 in sha
		
01:14:18 --> 01:14:19
			Allah, Allah Subhana Allah.
		
01:14:21 --> 01:14:59
			Here, the author says 3.7 on page seven, he guides him towards learning the truth, acting by
accepting all beloved things with gratitude and facing trials and hardships with contentment and
patience Allah Subhana data says in the lilina everyone saw the hand. Yeah dm love boom beaming for
those who have faith and do righteous actions. Their Lord will guide them by their faith because of
their faith because of their Eman. Allah Subhana Allah guides them what lies when Joe yahoomail
Solomon will see between 11 Mila when may you
		
01:15:00 --> 01:15:48
			Lenny yeah the call Bahu now illustrates it says there's no misfortune that occurs except by laws
permission, whoever has a man or a human being left. Yeah, the Congo whoever has this amen and
ultramarathoner love of God His heart some of the subset and explanation to this verse. It refers to
one who is afflicted with a misfortune. But he knows that it is from Allah, that any adversity that
comes to him whether it's health, or loss of loved ones, or for any other type of adversity, it
affliction but he knows this from a lot that's that me Allah guides the heart. Because of that, he
man he knows that is from Allah subhana wa tada and therefore his content and he accepts his content
		
01:15:48 --> 01:16:13
			and he accepts pi 3.81 is comforted at the onset of calamity and hardship here. I want you to look
at this one statement where the author says at the end of the first paragraph, he says the sweetness
of the reward mitigates the bitterness of patience a person a person
		
01:16:15 --> 01:17:07
			patience is actually been a sub there's there's another word very close to it, which is a sub er,
which is the aloe, the aloe How does it taste? Super bitter. I was super bitter. And so Southern,
they say is bitter. It's being you know, patient when adversity comes. It's a hard pill to swallow
we say right? It's it is it's a bitter thing, but the knowledge of the reward that is from Allah
Subhana Allah the sweetness of the reward from a loss fantastic lessons, the Murata in lessons the
bitterness of the patient's lost parents it says into who Nutella Muna, for in the home, get in the
morning, come attack no more. Allah Subhana Allah was telling the believers, if you are facing some
		
01:17:07 --> 01:17:32
			pain, and talking about doing bad, you are facing pain for no one yet and I want to come and tell
them they're also facing pain just like you're facing pain. Don't think that you're the only one
just like they're getting some of some on you. You're getting you're getting some but Allah says
Well, what do you want him in a lie? Man like I wish him but you hope from Allah that mistake do not
hope for That's the difference.
		
01:17:33 --> 01:17:49
			They kill want to give men you kill one of their man. They kill two of yours you kill two of them,
whatever it might be. But the difference is what's on June I'm in a line man lie on June you hope
from a law that they have no hope for they can't hope for because they have no email
		
01:17:50 --> 01:18:17
			because they have no email. And so here the comfort that comes to the believers at the time of
adversity because of the man a lot of times it gives them that comfort when the midwife Asana as the
lady said, There is nobody that's going to get the reward and food except for the believers and
Allah Subhana Allah says well, especially the Savi de la Vina del Salva Tomasi was called in early
life when a lady Roger leir Italia him solloway
		
01:18:20 --> 01:18:52
			and that's the reward of the believers what best shade is savini give good tidings to, to the
believers. And that's actually one of the subcategories that is that is mentioned here. One of the
fruits of Eman is that Allah Subhana Allah gives them this bullfrog glad tidings glad tidings of
what Allah doesn't mention that means all that is good will come to them well, especially the savini
give them as lead times. And then the last rounds Allah says it is upon them, that is the sabi rule
those who have suffered, it is upon them that they will have Salawat from Allah subhanho
		
01:18:55 --> 01:18:58
			wa Taala mercy from Allah subhanho wa Taala
		
01:19:00 --> 01:19:15
			that Eliza Joe says a lot upon a person means that he is going to praise them actually. And Allah
Allah so Allah Subhana Allah mentions them amongst the amongst the highest level of of angels.
		
01:19:17 --> 01:19:18
			Now
		
01:19:20 --> 01:19:21
			is that it's time for then
		
01:19:24 --> 01:19:29
			we're going to start reading 314 go to three point 14 which is page 78.
		
01:19:31 --> 01:19:59
			Reddit thread, in times of patience, of these impatient at times of adversity is established into
something that the Prophet alayhi salaatu wa Salaam said amazing indeed is the affair of the
believer, all of it is good. If he is in times of ease, he shows gratitude, and this is good for
him. When he is in times of adversity, he is patient and steadfast and this is good for him. This
only applies
		
01:20:00 --> 01:20:14
			With a belief is only the believer and some of the other narrations actually comes first so probably
some says that amazing indeed is the affair of the believer. All of it is good and that is only for
the believer that is only for the for the believer. And
		
01:20:17 --> 01:20:26
			it's just there's just not enough time you we could cover the subject of Southern sugar or what we
translated here as patients and gratitude. That could be your own 10 week course.
		
01:20:27 --> 01:20:28
			Because
		
01:20:29 --> 01:20:54
			I am Rahim Allah tada mentions that the entire Deen goes back to a suburban sugar. And so he asked
Jacob Assam and Tamia mo lo Tada. Which one is better, he asked his Shake, shake his hands, he said
to him O'Shea, which one is better, the one who is wealthy and thankful? Or the one who is poor and
patient and shapeless lamp said the one who has the most awkward
		
01:20:58 --> 01:21:00
			man. So here.
		
01:21:02 --> 01:21:39
			Yeah, he says gratitude and patience gathered together all good. And the believer is acquiring this
goodness at all times and profiting in all circumstances. No matter what's happening, whether you
live through good, or the times are difficult, and a last round of data. They're both tests. And
that's the thing we A lot of us don't realize. We think that when we're when when the times are
going good that it's not a test. It's a test. It's a test. You went you got 100% increase, you know
when your salary, and you'd like times are great. What do you want to do with that extra money?
You're going to use it to disobey and last panel data. Are you going to use it to do something that
		
01:21:39 --> 01:21:48
			is good. It's a test whenever loom? Whenever lucam Bill Haley was 75th bill, hey, whenever Luke come
on up Aloha.
		
01:21:51 --> 01:22:35
			Whether whenever you come to Haiti, we surely will claim fitna, we will test you with evil and with
good fitna, it's all a fitness all the tests from a loss of habitat. That that is to see are you
going to be thankful for those blessings that you got from Allah transactive which requires you to
use them in a manner that is pleasing to Him and not use them in a way that this pleases Him? Are
you going to be grateful to Allah subhanaw taala angry and then the shuttle everybody recognizes
that as a test when evil comes or adversity comes exam being tested right now is a test from Las
menza to call it name shalom
		
01:23:06 --> 01:23:07
			shadow
		
01:23:12 --> 01:23:13
			shadow
		
01:23:32 --> 01:23:33
			Hi.
		
01:23:37 --> 01:23:37
			Hi.
		
01:23:50 --> 01:23:51
			Love, Love.
		
01:23:55 --> 01:23:55
			Love.
		
01:24:11 --> 01:24:47
			We're gonna move through these inshallah. And so, he has recorded that the prophet SAW the subset of
the believers not afflicted by any concern worry or harm, any concern, that is the even the mental
anguish that a person deals with the worry that a person deals with or harm that is physical and
bodily harm except that it would be a means for loss of data. expiating is since so the times of
ease, the believer attains two lessons. Ready. The first
		
01:24:48 --> 01:24:53
			is that it is a time of ease that is a blessing in and of itself.
		
01:24:56 --> 01:24:59
			The second is that he is blessed or that
		
01:25:00 --> 01:25:18
			He has given the divine guidance to be thankful and to be grateful to Allah subhana wa tada to show
his gratitude for that blessing of ease. And that second blessing that is being guided to gratitude
is greater than the first blessing.
		
01:25:20 --> 01:25:31
			The blessing of Allah Subhana Allah guiding you to being thankful is greater than the blessing of
ease, and is greater than the favor that allows fantana man
		
01:25:32 --> 01:25:51
			at times of adversity, the believer attains three blessings. First is expiation of his sins as we
just covered in a heading. Number two is that he is granted suffer and suffer is he bad. Subbu is a
great act of any better and that Allah Subhana Allah guides that person to that
		
01:25:53 --> 01:25:54
			expiation of
		
01:25:55 --> 01:26:12
			abuse being patient is a blessing. And also that Allah subhanho wa Taala makes the adversity easy
for him to deal with because of his email. So it lightens the blow and he's able to handle it and
this is a blessing from Allah subhanho wa Taala.
		
01:26:14 --> 01:26:16
			Go back to page 73.
		
01:26:19 --> 01:26:21
			And that is that through email,
		
01:26:22 --> 01:26:32
			a person attains the love of a loss of Hannah who was at a loss of Adele says in the La Nina M and
wamena solly hat. So yeah, J.
		
01:26:33 --> 01:26:34
			man would.
		
01:26:35 --> 01:26:41
			As for those who have faith in the righteous actions, they have a man and righteous actions which
are part of he man,
		
01:26:42 --> 01:26:45
			the All Merciful will bestow His love on them.
		
01:26:46 --> 01:27:39
			And so a lot because of that he man and because of their righteous actions, Allah will love them.
And he will place the love of them in the hearts of the believers as it comes in the Hadith of the
Prophet Isaiah select to sit down, when Elijah loves his servant, Nadia be, he'll call to jabril.
And he'll say to him in Neo hidden bufalin and fabinho I love so and so. So love him. And when
jabril finds that out that he also says the same thing to the inhabitants of the heavens and informs
them to love land, so love him and then his acceptance will be put in the in the land. And that will
be for the other believers who are loved by loss of habitat and those who are on that path. They
		
01:27:39 --> 01:28:20
			will love this individual. Because Allah subhana wa tada has loved him and he's attained the love of
Allah subhana wa Tada. And here it says, Whoever is loved by love and is loved by the believers, he
will find victory success, many benefits commendation that is he'll be praised by them, supplication
for him, they go on to make do it for him while he is living happily, the hello to either well fuck
a whole lot to the end, though. And after his death, when they'll be asking for a loss of Paradise,
have mercy for him and expand his grave and so forth. People will follow his example, people will
follow his example and he will attain leadership and the religion. What is the benefit of people
		
01:28:20 --> 01:28:29
			following his example, the benefit is that when his example is followed, when people do things
because of him, then he also gets their reward.
		
01:28:31 --> 01:29:09
			You understand because now they're following his example. And now he gets the reward for all of the
good that they do. And he will attain leadership in the religion, this theme from the greatest
fruits of faith is that he becomes a leader and the religion Allah Subhana Allah says, which I mean
by imitating and doing a b, m d. Now lemma submodel. Will can will be it now, you will know we
appointed leaders from among them guiding by our command when they were steadfast, and then when
they were certain of our science, and if you don't pay him by Him alone to either, he, he wrote an
entire book just on this,
		
01:29:10 --> 01:29:19
			where he talks about the four qualities that a person needs to have to attain an Imam in the
religion to become a leader in the deen.
		
01:29:20 --> 01:29:31
			And that book is called the Salah. Besides even on family, I had the fit the letter that everyone to
pay him wrote to one of his brothers, it's very The title is very
		
01:29:33 --> 01:29:59
			ambiguous. But though the book in its entirety deals with this with this eye and breaking down those
four qualities, so he says, guiding, number one is that in order to be any man in the deen, that you
have to strive to guide others that you have described for them to be right that you have to command
what is good and forbid what is evil. That's part of it that you got, but not anymore.
		
01:30:00 --> 01:30:07
			guidance guiding. Yes, do not be empty now by our command that is according to our teachings,
		
01:30:09 --> 01:30:26
			called heavy CBT say this is my pet Illa Allah basilar I call to a law by Brasil, which is insane.
And that knowledge. So a person guides by a laws command that's wanting to do to be empty net lament
		
01:30:28 --> 01:31:12
			when they were steadfast persevered, and so subak is that third quality will can will be attina. You
know, and they had certainty in our science and certainty is that last quality and certainty is that
highest level of, of Amen. And so here, these four qualities will propel one to being a leader in,
in faith and leader in the deen title, the two questions What are some of the world the benefits of
being loved by law? We talked about it here, a person gets victory and success, they'll be praised
people will make do it for them. These are worldly, these are worldly benefits for you.
		
01:31:13 --> 01:31:18
			Is it okay to seek leadership? Is it okay to want to be any man? And that being?
		
01:31:20 --> 01:31:29
			The problem solving some say let us alone imara. Don't ask for leadership, don't ask to be an
engineer. Don't ask to be in charge.
		
01:31:31 --> 01:31:44
			If you are giving it without asking for it, or ends, yada, yada, we'll give it we'll we'll help you.
We'll help you in that position. But if you if you get it because you asked for it, then you're not
going to be helped.
		
01:31:46 --> 01:32:00
			Then use of say, and as Alex was saying, and Johnny has put me in charge of the treasures of the of
the earth. Then he asked for leadership. Is it okay to ask for leadership? Or do we need to push
that off to a different day?
		
01:32:03 --> 01:32:49
			But the quick answer is there's a difference between leadership in worldly affairs and leadership in
the deen. There's only one way to become a leader in the deen and that is through those four
qualities you need to be calling to Allah subhana wa tada his Deen in a manner that he prescribed.
You need to have Subbu you need to have your team. So you strive for those qualities, you strive for
those qualities, you will automatically become any man. Not that you're seeking it, you will become
that because you have what john Allen with Sakina Amen. And that's one of the drives that the
mutsuki make and make us a any man for the turkey, make us any man for them, meaning make us be from
		
01:32:49 --> 01:33:32
			amongst them who are the leaders of the turkey, because we we have embodied this tequila as for
worldly positions, then that is only permissible under certain and certain with certain
restrictions. As was the case with use of Haida Salatu was Salam where he knew that by being in
charge, that he would bring salah and righteousness and so forth and that by others being in charge
that it would become corrupt and that the people would be destroyed. Type securing the laws, gifts,
the greatest of those gifts. Being are not necessarily the greatest but one of the greatest of those
gifts, as was talked about at the end, which is that light that comes from Allah subhana wa tada as
		
01:33:32 --> 01:34:11
			he says at the very last paragraph there for the believers, one who walks through the life of this
world by the light of knowledge and see Subhana Allah through your Eman Allah Subhana Allah gives
you Basilan, he gives you that light that you need to be able to distinguish, and to be able to
prioritize and these that that is the light that we're talking about here. And he will give it to
you on the day of judgment when all lights have been extinguished. He will traverse the bridge the
salons, guided by his life and enter the boat abode of perpetual of perpetual bliss. As a last
sentence it says on the day you see men and women of the believers with their lights streaming out
		
01:34:11 --> 01:34:15
			in front of them and to the right and then the McAfee Kuhn I want to say to them what
		
01:34:17 --> 01:34:59
			servicemen Noriko, let us take from your life. He loves you. You're welcome, filter me so Nora say
go back there and go look for that light. Go back there and look for life. Let this is the last one
here. And that is that faith prevents the servant from committing destructive sins. If a person
finds himself committing major sins, they know that there is a major hole in the faith. A believer,
a true believer in Allah Subhana Allah avoids major sins like the plague. It does not mean that they
won't make mistakes. Everybody is going to make mistakes. It doesn't mean that they're not going to
sin. Every believer will sin indeed.
		
01:35:00 --> 01:35:35
			But those major sins mean that there are major holes in a person's Amen. Allahu Allah Mr. Han, what
branch of faith is key in securing this fruit? It says here, whoever falls into committing such
transgression, it is because of the weakness of faith, the loss of its light, and the removal of the
sense of shame in the heart of higher, which goes back to what we talked about earlier. If you want
to avoid those major sins, you take control of what your thoughts are, and that will control your
actions. We
		
01:35:36 --> 01:35:42
			will love Adam, we're going to test ourselves quickly. What is the main difference between the
second and third sections of this book? Hmm, quickly.
		
01:35:43 --> 01:36:08
			Section two deals with developing development of faith. And that's what, that's my action. Section
three deals with the fruits of faith. And that's what the last section right, we sum up the section
three in two sentences or less, we'll say that every good and this line is from the tree of faith,
and all rappelling of evil is from the fruits of the tree of faith. There's a man prevent one from
entering the fire.
		
01:36:11 --> 01:36:26
			Yes and no complete email prevents one from entering the fire. Some email prevents a person from
eternity in the fire according to the author, what essential quality is necessary to secure good
life?
		
01:36:28 --> 01:37:07
			What is it that is the foundation of the good life is about peace of mind? And what is the
foundation of st karma is controlling the thoughts right? And so you see that really your good life
all is starts your thoughts and raw had some code that you have come at Nina and that you are able
to control your thoughts that this is this is the essence of good life. What two blessings there's a
moment enjoy going in times of ease. He enjoys the ease itself and he enjoys gratitude. Which of the
two is greater gratitude that you lost friends I'll guide you into being thankful what because some
people might get that ease and use it to disobey a lost granddad. What are the requisites for the
		
01:37:07 --> 01:37:45
			validity of one v ones deeds email in class and whatever? Eman sincerity and the compliance that the
sooner the Prophet alayhi salatu was Salam Is it okay to seek leadership? We just talked about that.
Although it was so long with someone we're learning. And then Amina Mohammed Mohammed Illa Allah
Devi never too heated so sorry hat and praise Allah subhana wa tada who has blessed us to complete
the explanation of this book in a very summarized way. And again, I want to encourage you all to
continue to read it. And I asked a lot of Hamlet's attitude and forgive me for my shortcomings.
