00:00:14--> 00:00:20

Long, long, long, long.

Long, long, long.

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

Wait.

00:00:46--> 00:00:53

Sit down. We're at eco ohana de la you America too. How's everyone doing today? How's Ramadan going for all of you?

00:00:55--> 00:01:32

It's slipping away Subhanallah right? Even though we were thinking is going to be a lockdown is going to be a different story maybe we will have a lot of time buts upon Allah. Ramadan is Ramadan. It really slips away every time. So May Allah enable us to make the most of whatever is left with us. And may Allah get us forgiveness. May Allah give us forgiveness, forgiveness all I mean, so inshallah, we're going to talk about two things today. And hamdulillah Sister daimyo taught us amazing guys yesterday, so try to do them as well and the session and we're going to talk about another beautiful aspect of the month of Ramadan. So inshallah the month of Ramadan is also a month,

00:01:32--> 00:01:38

which is a month of compassion to merely enable us to show this compassion to the people around us.

00:01:39--> 00:02:02

So let's begin, no matter who one is Salli ala Rosaleen, Karim and mbarara, where I will be laying an essay upon urging Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim, rubbish Rafi surgery, well, you're certainly I'm a little older than melissani you have I will only Robin as a donor I'm a Walmart shopping never did an email or give us the correct understanding of our body. And

00:02:03--> 00:02:48

so Ramadan is the month of compassion. But before that we were talking about liquor yesterday, and I really wanted to share two amazing pieces of liquor which we can enjoy include in our daily routine, and I will make it really really amazing for us we get it because it is better than doing perpetuals so inshallah, before we get there, I really wanted to share another Heidi's as well. And the Hadees is so beautiful. It talks about if you're not able to do much, then what? So once I was a little lost and I was going on he mentioned whoever among you is too weak to stand at night for prayer, or is too miserly to spend in charity, or is too afraid to fight the aggressor. Let him increase in the

00:02:48--> 00:03:29

remembrance of Allah like at least do this much so hang on. So don't think that okay, I'm not able to pray for long hours, I'm not able to stand for long hours, I'm not good enough, or I'm not able to give charity then because maybe I don't have I don't even have enough means or whatnot, then inshallah at least increase the vicar. So, you we have something in our records. So inshallah It is not something that we should ignore and smell wicker is something so easy where it is very and you know, to neglected good deed, so we should not neglect it at least because it is inshallah going to help us with our records of deeds. Insha Allah. So this is a vicar which is called better than

00:03:29--> 00:04:15

perpetual Vicar. It comes in a second generation. So he'll Jeremy abou mama he narrated Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam said, shall I not inform you of a vicar that is better and more virtuous than doing zekiel constantly, day and night. And then he taught us this, what is that? And hamdulillah he either Dharma hydac All praises for Allah as much as the number of what he has created. So we just need to think about the beauty of the thicker, we're just you know, multiplying it. So we're saying Alhamdulillah times the creation of Allah Alhamdulillah email ama Allah, all praises for Allah, as much as the field of what he has created, to handle the fill of everything which whatever he has

00:04:15--> 00:04:53

created. And then third phrase Alhamdulillah Allah Matheson awadhi marfil Earth Al Hamdulillah as many times as whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. So what we have numerous or countless objects around this vanilla, so 100 times whatever is around us, whatever is in the skies and wherever it is on the earth, and hamdulillah he other than Assa t dabble, and unhandled Allah as much as what wet his book has enumerated wherever Allah His book has in it

00:04:54--> 00:04:59

times Alhamdulillah and it is repeated twice and then the last one hamdulillah he either

00:05:00--> 00:05:32

cliche is repeated, while hamdulillah Aquila che is the repetition. So the first two phrases are repeated again. So beautiful wicker, not a lot to memorize, but even if you can memorize, take a screenshot, keep it on your phone and maybe make it your, like wallpaper on your phone. So every time you look at your phone, at least you're reminded to say this inshallah it will be a great addition to your adkar there is a similar one, it is adding Subhan Allah to it, alright, it's very similar to Alhamdulilah the mahana just look at the

00:05:33--> 00:06:17

you know, second passage from Evan huband it says Subhan Allah yada Mahara. So inshallah we can also do that. May Allah enable us to make the most of this Ramadan with our F car as well? I mean, so next is the month of compassion. So what does it mean by month of compassion? Let's see meant the month of compassion is the month in which we are going to show mercy to the people around us not just the people but also the creation of Allah subhanaw taala around us so this month is not just the month to focus on only our Avada and ourselves. Ramadan doesn't make a selfish reason Ramadan makes a makes us selfless Ramadan is giving us the opportunity to become selfless so merely enable

00:06:17--> 00:06:59

us to become selfless, and do something for the people around us. You know, sometimes we think you know, I have to worry about myself, it's my Ramadan is my by the time who cares about others, and sometimes we become Subhanallah even more harder or harsher with the people around us. But this is not why the Ramadan is here. Ramadan is here so that we also inshallah do something nice in terms of our social work, or our dealings with people. So rasuna last lesson, he has termed Ramadan, the month of compassion, the shadow, my wife, which means that it is a month of human beings to show kindness and concern for each other, to help each other and share their problems with each other,

00:06:59--> 00:07:45

and especially to help each other you know, remove their difficulties and hardships by each other. Insha Allah and Rasul Allah, so Allah said, and he said, one of the best deeds is to bring about happiness onto the believers through settling their debts, fulfilling their needs, and averting adversities from them, averting their problems, anything which is causing them pain, wording, that to not only be just your financial help, you can also do it with your time and listening to someone giving them good advice, that also can become one of the best deeds insha Allah. So let's move on and see what is considered a good character Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam said, by a good character,

00:07:45--> 00:08:27

or a believer by his good character can reach the same rank as someone who fasts and prays at night to handle so fast during the day and prays at night. So if we are going to have good conduct with people, if you're going to talk to people nicely, if you're going if you're going to care about them, genuinely remember that because many people they act as if they care, but they don't really care. So that's not genuine care. So we need to care about people because the last panel done he knows that the state of the heart, anything which is not genuine, won't be accepted. So why you know put yourself into it into this trouble of acting like you care but you don't care. So inshallah be a

00:08:27--> 00:09:09

genuine caring person. This should be your goal, this Ramadan not just outwardly nice, but inwardly nice and inshallah so inshallah this is this is our goal for this Ramadan we are going to try to make the most of this Ramadan by helping people as well, not just helping ourselves but people as well. And this Ramadan or every Ramadan we experience hunger ourselves as well. So the one who fast during Ramadan gets the opportunity to empathize with the hunger pangs of those who live and who live on empty stomachs throughout the years behind Allah. So our hearts they soften up, and then we care about other people because we can feel for them now. So inshallah we're going to make the most

00:09:09--> 00:09:49

of this opportunity. When we are feeling for them, we should help them not just feel for them and cry for them and sleep over them. rather do something inshallah to help them also to earn the pleasure of Allah. The previous generations of pious Muslims they would load them masajid with food during Ramadan in order to feed the poor and Subhanallah we learn from foreigners Well, the quality of good people that were your time on at the AMA I know Houdini skeena Maya t ma Sera, and they give food inspire of love for it to the needy, the orphan and the caplet so it doesn't mean that we don't like food that's why we give it away. No, no, we give what we like to other people, as it comes into

00:09:49--> 00:09:59

the narration from wasn't already Chateau de la Juana narrated that a cooked food was sent to us with a loss and all of a sudden, he neither ate it.

00:10:00--> 00:10:40

Nor stop others from eating it. So I said, I started the lawn and I said that I said, Yasser Allah, can we not feed the poor with it, he said, do not feed them what you would not eat yourself. So don't give to people something which you don't like yourself. Somehow Allah said a beautiful Allah, this is real caring, like this is real care, this is real concern for other people. So inshallah give what you would like to eat yourself, give what you would like to accept yourself inshallah this Ramadan. So some things to do in order to make this month of compassion, full of compassion, compassion, inshallah, first thing, think of ways to benefit the creation of a law. So this should

00:10:40--> 00:11:15

be your task for today in sha Allah, because whenever we learn, we should implement it right away before we forget it, or before we become hard hearted. So May Allah enable us to stay soft and are at our heart and inshallah Malay enable us to do more than before, especially in Ramadan. First thing, think of ways so you're going to list them down, don't don't just think of them or write them down, inshallah the What can I do do to help. So maybe you can make a list of people as well, there will be I'm going to help my parents like this, okay, I'm going to help my siblings like this, I'm going to help this person I know like this and that person I know now, like this one handler, this

00:11:15--> 00:11:52

will be great. And then strive to help everyone, not just okay, when I have some time, when I'm free. When I'm relaxed, then I will help you may not get a chance to do that. So strive to help whoever you can whenever you can, and create the environment of mutual love and harmony, even at home. You know, sometimes when we are working hard for people outside if you're doing social work and whatnot, we are really really bitter with the people who are home so that should not be the case inshallah. Take care of widows, orphans, needy, poor and sick people. Don't turn away anyone empty handed. So inshallah, no matter who that is, even if a person is asking you for advice, or even if a

00:11:52--> 00:12:28

person is asking you for some time, inshallah, give them that, whatever you can. If they're asking you for time to do backbiting, then of course not show more respect and kindness to everyone around you help resolve grievances between people, relatives who are not, you know, we're not on good terms and shall help them with that you're in ties of kinship with your relatives, re establish good relations with everyone so let's say just if you're not in touch with relatives and you are in you know, good terms with them, but you know, it's been ages. So this is the time to just, you know, send them a message and Alhamdulillah You know, this is a time when people are actually in need of

00:12:28--> 00:13:08

each other support some nice words some kindness inshallah, use that time for that and also ask them about their health and everything because the virus situation, cleanse your heart of grudges. forgive everyone make peace, engage in social work, however much you can inquire about the needs of others and help them don't just inquire but also help them partner with those who are helping others do good deeds together. Not only just do charity work together, but also do good deeds, other good deeds together, like memorize work together as a family or attend some classes together as a family and motivate each other to do more good and deal with everyone at the level of a son and inshallah

00:13:08--> 00:13:34

if you do that, it is going to be you know, easy for us to you know, not slip. So everyone should be dealt with nicely kindly and with a son even if they haven't been nice to us. Doesn't matter, because we are going to inshallah, show compassion to everyone in this room medanta to murder us in sha Allah for today. So first one is adrar for Shiva, cure healing. So let's look at that.

00:13:35--> 00:14:27

He Bill basara banners, all lot of the people remove the difficulty whsv and the Sharpie and bring about healing as you are a sharpie You are the healer, lash if a lash if there is no healing, but you're healing cheaper and now you are the rose upon a healing that will leave no ailment, no sickness, such a beautiful car, or a Chateau de la Juana narrated that also the loss of a sudden he would you know do this type of Rokia or healing for some of his wives by placing his hand on them so has such a caring gesture and then seeing this dog. So let's look at the easy breakup for this Dora to have in Bath take away the pain robinus all of mankind is fee grantee what is fee and grant if

There is another app which is called a painkiller that you say Bismillah three times and then you say ours will be laggy we're called Rahim and sure Rhema edito had it seven times.

00:15:00--> 00:15:43

This was the way of Brazil Allah sallallahu sallam. He thought this was a hobby when he came to him. And he explained you know, he complained about the killing pain, but also the losses and told him to use his own hand to place it on the place where he was feeling some pain and then say Bismillah Bismillah Bismillah In the name of Allah three times and then hours will be lagging vocoder t I seek refuge with ALLAH and with his power mean shall remain as he will have it from the evil that I find and that I fear. So anything which I'm scared of that you know, I will I will have or I already have all law, please save me from the evil of that. So whatever pain This is, whatever ailment This is.

00:15:44--> 00:16:15

Allah save me from it. Such a beautiful, though, isn't it? So we also have other our card or you can say a card with verses and also feeling on what aren't.

Salam Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu

00:21:45--> 00:22:33

We learned that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he sent more either bingeable and Abu Musab Allah shorty, both of them to Yemen and often they would meet one another and they would discuss their matters together. So one day more other bingeable he asked Abu Musa that k for dakara on how do you recite the Quran? Meaning given that you have so much work to do? At what time and in what way do you recite the Quran? So Abu Musa said I recite it called Eamonn Walker Eden what Allah haloti that I recited while I am standing, I am sitting or writing my animal meeting as I'm going about in my day, whenever I find the time I recite the Quran and he said at times I recited at the

00:22:33--> 00:22:33

*able

00:22:35--> 00:23:26

at the other for welco the for walkin meaning at times I recited in, you know in intervals, any whenever possible for me basically. And then a Buddha asked more of that, how do you recite the Quran. So he said that I sleep in the first part of the night. And then I get up after having slept for some time. And then I recite the Quran as much as I am able to whatever that Allah subhanaw taala has decreed for me. And I hope that Allah subhanaw taala will reward me for my sleep, and also for what I pray in the night. So we see over here two different people, you know, having similar work but different, you know, different strengths. And this is why we see that one person, you know

00:23:26--> 00:24:07

he is reciting the Quran in the night and another person is reciting the Quran whenever that they get a chance to do so. Which means that our ultimate goal, you know, our main goal should be to recite as much as possible. And don't compare yourself to people. rather focus on what you are able to do. And don't just wait for that perfect time when you can sit down, you know, without any distractions and you can recite the entire Jews, you know, in one sitting, rather make use of whatever time that Allah subhanaw taala has given you. And we see that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam at times he would recite the Quran, while he would be resting his head on the lap of our

00:24:08--> 00:24:28

shuttle de la Mourinho. And then we see that once the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was heard reciting the Quran while he was writing his camel. So this shows us that we should just like the remembrance of Allah. We should also recite the Quran whenever that it is possible for us in sha Allah. Jews number 20

00:24:29--> 00:24:59

Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim, a man Hello Kasama what he will Allah and zella convener semma EMA for buttner b he had equal data by Jatin McCann Allah calm and to be to shadow her Allahumma Allah Balham calm we are de Lune is he not best who created the heavens and the earth and sent down for you rain from the sky causing too

00:25:00--> 00:25:51

Grow there by gardens of joyful beauty, which you could not otherwise have grown the trees there off? Meaning who is that being? Who is causing all of this to happen? Is there a dadey with Allah? No, but they are a people who ascribe equals to him. The fact is that Allah subhanaw taala alone is the creator. He is Holly cuckoo, Alicia. So whatever that we see, has actually been made by Allah subhanaw taala. It didn't come into existence by itself. So when Allah alone is the creator, then that means that he alone is the one who is worthy of worship. So we should only worship Allah subhanaw taala because He alone is ILA It is said here at Isla, whom Allah is there and Isla with

00:25:51--> 00:26:42

Allah, meaning no, it is not possible. And remember that ILA literally means the object of worship, meaning the one who is worshipped. So it is not enough for us to believe that God is the Creator, but that he alone deserves worship. This is also something that is part of our belief. So believing in the oneness of Allah includes that we believe He alone is the Lord the Creator, and that He alone is the one who is worthy of worship. We learned in the Quran, that valley como la hora, bukem, La Ilaha Illa. Who Holly Coco Lee Shay, far buddhu, that that is Allah, there is no god worthy of worship except he, He is the creator of everything, therefore worship only him. And this is why we

00:26:42--> 00:27:24

see that all of the prophets of Allah, they invited people to worship Allah alone. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam his main invitation was also to what to the worship of Allah? He said, What are you what had Allahu Allah yusaku be he Shay, meaning My message is that only Allah should be worshipped, that people should not associate anything with him. And this is the first message that people deserve to be told. When the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam sent morons or the Allahu anhu to Yemen. He told him that failure could overwhelm matter the room, then that the first thing that you should call people to is that you Wahidullah dharana that they should worship only

00:27:24--> 00:28:17

Allah, the Exalted, and when a person believes in this truth and dies upon it, only then they are successful. We learn in a Hadees that no servant says La ilaha illa Allah sincerely with his heart, except that the doors of the sky are opened up for him until it reaches the throne, as long as the major sins are avoided. In another Hades, we learn no servant says La ilaha illa Allah and then dies upon that, except that he will enter Jenna Amanda Allah Allah Cora wodeyar Allahu la lucha unhealed la we're Darla Halliwell see what Darla Bane Elba Haney how jeiza Allahumma Allah, Bella accelo, whom layer Allah moon, is he not best, who made the earth a stable ground, meaning who is it that

00:28:17--> 00:29:07

has made this earth so stable beneath your feet? If you think about it, not only is the earth spinning at 1000 miles per hour, but it is also gliding through space at about 30 kilometers a second around the sun. And then within the earth also there are so much movement, we see that there is magnitude to and smaller earthquakes that occur several 100 times a day worldwide. Yet this earth is stable. It is habitable, we don't feel dizzy, we don't feel like it is moving. So who has made this earth such and placed within it rivers, meaning fresh, flowing water, and made for it firmly set mountains and placed between the two seas a barrier so that the two waters don't mix immediately

00:29:07--> 00:29:18

and you can find fresh water even in underwater caves? So who is he? Is there a deity with Allah? No, but most of them do not know.

00:29:19--> 00:29:59

And mejor de will Mata either Dara is he not best meaning Who is it? Who responds to the desperate one when he calls upon him? Why she for Sue and removes evil and makes you inheritors of the earth? Is there a daily with Allah? Little Do you remember? Each person you know experiences something of this nature in their life? That moment when they feel completely alone, when all material means have cut off or they have failed? So this ailing, frightened, desperate heart. What does it do? It's creams for help for relief.

00:30:00--> 00:30:47

And at times, there is no person in sight to even hear their screams to even console them. So in such a state, what does a person do? They call upon Allah, either da who they call upon Allah alone with doe hade. And that is when Allah subhanaw taala responds to the smooth burn this person who is desperate, and he actually follows suit, he removes the harm from him. So we also need to turn to Allah, no matter who we are, and no matter what we have done, because it hasn't been said over here, that he only responds to the believer or to the righteous, but to who ultimate, the one who is desperate, either there or who when he calls upon Allah alone. So this is the key call upon Allah

00:30:47--> 00:31:35

alone. And remember, the greater the difficulty is, the greater our dependence on Allah subhanaw taala is so in that state of atelier are in that state of desperation, when a person calls upon Allah than Allah responds to them. So keep calling upon him. Is he not best, who guides you through the darkness of the land and the sea, and who sends the winds as good tidings before His mercy? Who is he is there a deity with Allah, hi is Allah above whatever they associate with him? Is he not best who begins creation and then repeats it? Meaning Allah subhanaw taala is the one who creates and then recreates any the cycle of creation, and it keeps repeating itself, generation after

00:31:35--> 00:32:19

generation. And then also when something dies, Allah subhanaw taala revives it any we see how trees die, and then Allah hands on and revives them every single year for us to see. And then on the Day of Judgment, he will also resurrect the dead, and who provides for you from the sky and the earth? Is there a deity with Allah say, produce your proof, if you should be truthful, say none in the heavens and earth knows the unseen except Allah, and they do not perceive when they will be resurrected. Meaning those that you call upon, or those who think are creators or providers are actually themselves dead, they themselves are in need of Allah subhanaw taala you think they are

00:32:19--> 00:33:03

maintaining life, you think that they can help you build a darker elbow home fill out your rather their knowledge is arrested concerning the Hereafter, meaning they don't know anything about it, meaning they don't know when the hour is going to be. And this is a knowledge that people cannot discover why because it is in the unseen and the intellect, the mind cannot reach the unseen, rather, they are in doubt about it, meaning to have no faith in it, rather, they are concerning it blind. And this is why they don't even prepare for it. So the fact is that only Allah subhanaw taala knows about when the Day of Judgment is going to be an hour obsession should not be to figure out

00:33:04--> 00:33:45

when the Day of Judgment is going to be because you see anything strange or anything unusual that happens in the world. A lot of people you know, they become obsessed with you know, the the Day of Judgment is very near now, this is a sign of the hour. This is you know, a sign of the Day of Judgment. The Day of Judgment is certainly coming. There is no doubt about it. And when people asked the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam when the Day of Judgment is going to be once a man asked he said one mother or the teller her, what is it that you have prepared for it? So that is what we should be focusing on? Not which day which year which century? You know, that should not be our

00:33:45--> 00:34:32

concern. Our concern should be preparing for the hour. And those who disbelieve say, when we have become dust as well as our forefathers will we indeed be brought out of our graves. We have been promised this we and our forefathers before. This is not but legends of the former peoples, meaning they don't believe in the hereafter they think it's just folklore, say traveled through the land and observe how was the end of the criminals meaning you can see what became of the people who deny the hour while at the has an IRA him and oh Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Do not grieve over them well after confused by pain, nor be in distress, min Miam Quran from what they conspire, meaning you

00:34:32--> 00:34:59

have done your part in conveying the message. Now you don't grieve and you don't be in distress. Now this is something very, very important that we must try to bring ourselves out of grief. Meaning Yes, we will be sad, but it is important that we don't dwell in that sadness and distress. Along with that sadness. We still have to strive to do our work. Because if we dwell in that state in that sadness

00:35:00--> 00:35:42

Under distress, we won't be able to do anything. Remember that the different emotions that Allah subhanaw taala has created within us, he there for a reason, it is that that there are three parts to an emotion. The first is a subjective component, meaning how you experience the emotion. So for example, you feel very sad, or you feel very angry. And that feeling is something that you experience. Secondly, there's a physiological component, meaning your body also reacts to that emotion, for example, you're feeling very sad, and, and you know, the trees, sorry, tears start, you know, coming into your eyes. And then there's the expressive component, meaning how you behave in

00:35:42--> 00:36:27

response to that emotion. So you may not have control over how you experience the emotion, and how your body reacts to it. For example, you cannot eliminate the sadness in your heart, nor can you control those tears and that heavy breathing, but you certainly have control over the expressive component of your emotions. And that is what you say, and what you do. And at times, remember that what we feel meaning our emotions are actually a result of our judgment. So for example, if we interpret a situation as upsetting, but then we also realize that it is not all that bad, then yes, we may feel sad as a result of our judgment. But we may not feel angry, or at least our sadness will

00:36:27--> 00:37:13

not be extreme. So to not grieve and to not be in distress, we need to do two things then first is try to change the way that you interpret the situations that you are in, try to give a positive spin, find the good in that situation, find that light, because be a decal, hide in Allah's hand is all good. And enamal ursery you throw with difficulties ease. And then secondly, instead of fighting those tears, and pretending like you're not sad, or you're not upset, focus instead on your expression and your response. So for example, you're overwhelmed with grief with worry, and that feeling is inside of you that emotion is inside of you. There is no running away from it. Then what

00:37:13--> 00:38:00

do you do? Focus on the expression. For example, make the make Vickers and then be more deliberate and be more careful about what you say and what you do. Where colonna matters, Mata had a word, and they say, when is the fulfillment of this promise, if you should be truthful, say perhaps it is close behind you some of that for which you are impatient. And indeed your Lord is full of bounty for the people, but most of them do not show gratitude. And indeed, your Lord knows what their chests conceal, and what they declare, and there is nothing concealed within the heaven and the earth, except that it is in a clear register. So realize that every detail is known to Allah

00:38:00--> 00:38:49

subhanaw taala. And he it is happening with his knowledge by his permission, so trust him in heaven on Indeed, this Quran relates to the children of Israel el, most of that over which they disagree. And indeed, it is guidance and mercy. Little more meaning for the believers. Notice how this is only for the believers because they are the ones who benefit from the Quran. Indeed, your Lord will judge between them by his wise judgment. And he is the Exalted in Might, the knowing, photoworks Allah Allah, so rely upon Allah, learn to rely upon Allah subhanaw taala. And this is the way out of many problems, that you put your faith in Allah, you entrust your affair to him, that Allah will take

00:38:49--> 00:39:31

care of this matter, I have done my part. But there is nothing else that I can do beyond this point. So now, I put my trust in Allah, that he will take care of my situation. This is similar to how you know when malice parents want to protect you. But if there's ever a legal case that you're involved in, you know, that you cannot handle that matter yourself. So this is why you go hire a professional, you go hire a lawyer, to defend you or to fight for you. Because you know, that you cannot do that yourself. And just like that, you do your best, you know, you do whatever you can to the best of your ability. And then where you see your limit, where you see, you know, a something

00:39:32--> 00:40:00

that prevents you from you know, going forward. Now you know that things are beyond you. That is where you must depend on Allah subhanaw taala indeed you are upon the clear truth. Indeed, you will not make the dead here, nor will you make the deaf hear the call when they have turned their backs retreating. So the Prophet salallahu earlier send them as being consoled over here that you are upon the truth and you are doing your job. The problem is actually

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

In these people who are alive, yet they are dead. How are they dead, that they fail to understand and see and benefit from what you're telling them. It is as if their hearts are dead, they're lifeless. And then it is as if they are deaf, meaning they don't hear anything, even though you're calling them, you're calling them so clearly, when antebi hurdler, roumier ambala, Allah to him, and you cannot guide the blind away from their error, you will only make here those who believe in our verses. So they are Muslims, meaning those of surrender to Allah are the ones who benefit from the guidance which is in the Quran. This is the key those who surrender to Allah, which means that if a

00:40:43--> 00:41:29

person refuses to submit to Allah, instead they want to follow their own desire, then you cannot help them and when the word befalls them, meaning when the day of judgment will be near, then what will happen, we will bring forth for them a creature from the earth, a dab button mineral up, just like the camel was brought out from the mountain, for the people of the mood, close to the Day of Judgment, it creature is going to come out of the earth and this creature is going to be speaking to them. It is going to talk to people, and what is it going to say, saying that the people were of our versus not certain in faith. So in Hades, we learn that the sun will rise from the west, and one

00:41:29--> 00:42:11

day, this creature will come out of the earth, meaning it will emerge before the eyes of people they will see it coming out. And it will talk to people and it will tell people to believe so we see that when there will be no people left to do a marble maroof to command what is right to forbid what is wrong to call people to worship Allah subhanaw taala then look at Allah's mercy, Allah will send an animal even as a final proof against humanity. And very soon after that, the hour will begin and warn of the day, when we will gather from every nation, a company of those who deny our signs, and they will be driven in rows, until when they arrive at the place of judgment, he will say, Did you

00:42:11--> 00:43:01

deny my signs while you encompass them not acknowledge when I'm to handle Bihari, meaning without even enough evidence or research or knowledge, you had the audacity to deny my versus any, you did not even give them the due attention that they deserve? You just outright denied them? or What was it that you were doing? Remember that any person who denies the Quran, who claims that there are, you know, errors in the Quran, or the Quran is you know, it's it's not factual, it has, you know, scientific errors, etc, then such claims are actually based on ignorance or on lack of evidence. Remember that the Quran is not a book of science, it is a book of science. So when certain things

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

regarding the creation are mentioned over in the Quran, we're not being given lessons in science, that, you know, this is how the earth is, and this is how it spins. And this is what happens. And this is what happens. That's not why the Quran came. The Quran mentions signs from the perspective of the viewer, meaning from our perspective, how we see things and why so that we can understand them, we can relate with them. And this is how the Quran is relevant to all people, people who have, you know, never studied any science and people who have, you know, studied a great deal of it, he will put on is relevant to all people. And so, this is why, you know, people just look at the

00:43:43--> 00:44:28

surface of certain verses of certain words, and they say, Oh, this is an error, this is an error, this is an error. And when people deny would let you know, in this manner, the fact is that they haven't bothered to pay attention to the Quran, they haven't reflected deeply enough. And even if they say that there's something in the Quran, which contradicts, you know, science, for example, then the fact is that whatever we know of science is just based on our observation. And science is built on the premise that, you know, we will continue to observe, we will continue to test, we will continue to research, right? And based on that we will keep revising what we know, meaning science

00:44:28--> 00:44:59

is meant to be humble, right? It's meant to be self correcting. This is this is the whole premise. So why is it that when we see something in the Quran that appears to be non scientific, we jumped to a conclusion. Why don't we accept that humility, that humility that perhaps we don't know enough yet? Perhaps we don't know everything yet. We need to study a little bit more research more, and over time, perhaps we will gain clarity. So remember, one is the Quran.

00:45:00--> 00:45:42

This is Revelation, this is from the creator of the universe, and it cannot have errors in it. And the other is what we have understood based on our limited observation, our limited knowledge, and we should be humble about that, that you know what, we know this, but yes, it could be wrong. So we will keep our eyes open, we will keep researching, we will keep studying so that we can increase in our understanding. But this should not lead to arrogance, that we go on denying the Quran and the decree will befall them for the wrong they did. And they will not be able to speak meaning on the Day of Judgment, they won't be able to defend themselves then do they not see that we made the

00:45:42--> 00:46:30

night? Do they not see that we made the night that they may rest they're in and the day giving sight indeed in that are Signs for people who believe and warn of the day, the Trumpet will be blown, the horn will be blown, and whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth will be terrified except whom Allah who builds meaning only those whom Allah subhanaw taala gives security to will be secure and safe, and all will come to him humbled. And you see the mountains thinking that rigid, well they will pass as the passing of clouds, meaning this is what will happen to mountains on the Day of Judgment, they will be blown away. It is the work of Allah who perfected all things. Indeed,

00:46:30--> 00:47:22

he is acquainted with what indeed he is acquainted with that which you do. Mangia a bill has sanity. Farah who hire Roman ha, whoever comes with a good deed will have better than it will human fuzzer in Yola even be known and they from the terror of that day, we'll be safe. Remember, any good deed that a person does, then Mangia or bill has sanity follow who Hiram minha, meaning the reward will be better than the good that a person has done. We do little, and the reward from Allah is always greater, because he is the rich, the generous, the appreciative, his reward is better than our effort. In this world. So often, you know, the work that you do is way better than the pay you get

00:47:22--> 00:48:09

for it, or the credit, the praise that you get for it. Sometimes you don't even get acknowledged for the work that you do. But the good that you do for Allah subhanaw taala, then remember his reward will be better than your work, because your work can have deficiencies, his reward is perfect. Your work can be little, his reward is not it is abundant, your work can be temporary, but his reward is not it is eternal. You say one word Alhamdulillah. And Allah fills the scales for you, a small word, a huge reward. You recite 10 verses in the night. And he gives him thought of reward, a heap of reward which is better than the world and everything that is in it. So even when you do a little

00:48:09--> 00:48:54

bit, Allah subhanaw taala his reward is generous. So the reward of Allah is better than the action that you do. The word that you say, the vicar that you make, the approval of a love for the slave is better than the action of the slave is better than the effort of the slave because Allah rewards 10 times for one good deed, the reward is multiplied 10 times. And if you think about it, a person believes and does good for a very short duration, any think about it any a yellow mardu that a few days, right? A short life of maybe 60 years, 70 years, 20 years. So pranam law, and in that also for how long is a person you know doing a bada or doing something good for the sake of Allah subhanaw

00:48:54--> 00:49:38

taala you can easily you know, count that time you can easily quantify that effort. It's very easy to do that. But the reward that Allah subhanaw taala gives Allahu Akbar, it is everlasting. It is eternal. So He rewards for the little things also, we learn in the Hadees that whoever removes something harmful from the road of the Muslims, that Allah subhanaw taala will record a lesson for him, and whoever is such that A Hasina a good deed is recorded for him, then Allah will admit him into Jenna. We learned another Hadees that a las panatela has said that whoever does a good deed, then he will have 10 times it's like, or I will increase that even more. And whoever does evil, then

00:49:38--> 00:49:59

he will only have its equivalent, or I will pardon Allahu Akbar. And whoever comes with an evil deed, their faces will be overturned into the fire Are you recompense except for what you used to do? Meaning This is justice. You get what you deserve. This is what you brought upon yourself. say oh Prophet sallallahu are

00:50:00--> 00:50:45

He was alone. I have only been commanded to worship the Lord of the city, who made it sacred and to whom belongs all things. And I am commanded to be of the Muslims of those who submit to Allah, what an attorney will call on and I have been commanded to recite the Quran, and whoever is guided is only guided for the benefit of himself. And whoever strays say I am only one of the Warners. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was instructed to recite the Quran, meaning to keep on reciting it. Why, in order to keep inviting people to it. So keep delivering the message, even if people are turning away, you keep reciting the Quran to them. Why? Because the Quran is sufficient. It is

00:50:45--> 00:51:21

perfect. It is enough to invite people to guidance because sometimes what happens is that you know, you when you try to do something one way and it doesn't work, you know, you change your strategy, you come up with something that is better, but the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam only use the Quran from the first day to the last day to invite people to Allah subhanaw taala so what actually well, Quran and this shows us the perfection of the Quran, which means that we should never get bored of it, we should never get tired of it, we should never think that all I have read enough Quran now. I have, you know, recited it enough number of times now I should perhaps move on to

00:51:21--> 00:52:05

something else. No, you never move on from the Quran. You move with the Quran. You never say that I used to recite the Quran? No, you continue to recite the Quran. And along with that, yes, you do other things in life also. And it is 100% possible to do that. So, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is told that you should recite the Quran. And this shows us that he was to recite the Quran, over and over again. Why? Because when you do that, then the truths and the messages that are contained with the within the Quran become manifest to you time and time again. You know, in one month, when you recite a certain idea, you understand it differently because of the situation that

00:52:05--> 00:52:51

you are in. And then when you recite the same idea, let's say after a year, or after a couple of months, given that your situation is different, or given that you have learned something else recently, that will add to your understanding of the Quran, to the benefit that you take from the Quran. This is why keep reciting it, keep learning it and the Quran is mobarak right mobarak is what something whose Baraka whose benefit is endless, any the good that you derive from it, it just keeps growing. It just keeps increasing. So what an attuale Quran keep reciting keep reading, why for your own benefit. And it also shows that recite the Quran to yourself and also to others, because

00:52:51--> 00:53:33

sometimes what happens is that we want to recite the Quran only, you know, in privacy, we don't want people to listen to us. So we learned that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that the person who recites the Quran in a loud voice meeting such that others can hear them, then he is like the person who gives charity openly and the person who recites the Quran quietly, meaning in their own privacy so that nobody can hear them is like a person who gives charity secretly, so both are permissible. The main thing is our intention should be sincere. And this shows us the importance of listening to the Quran, the Prophet sallallahu Arizonan was taught over here to recite the Quran to

00:53:33--> 00:54:22

people, meaning people need to listen to the Quran. Because yes, when you recite the Quran, it benefits you. But there is a completely different benefit you derive by listening to the Quran. So listen to the Quran also work with Al Hamdulillah. And say, All praise is due to Allah, He will show you his signs and you will recognize them and your Lord is not unaware of what you do. So total Casals Bismillah Ar Rahman AR Rahim wa seen meme tilka ar toolkit I will move between these are the verses of the clear book, we recite to you from the news of Musa and fit our own in truth for the benefit of a people who believe meaning there's a huge lesson in the story of Messiah and for our

00:54:22--> 00:55:00

own for who for people who believe in Allah. What is the story? It is that indeed fit our own exalted himself in the land and made its people into factions, meaning he divided them up. And that is how he ruled them, oppressing his sector among them, how he was slaughtering their newborn sons and keeping their families and keeping their females alive. Indeed, he was of the corrupters. So we see that to gain power to keep his power. He divided the people into factions. So there was a great political divide. There. Were

00:55:00--> 00:55:42

Those who love for their own will literally worshipped him. There were his supporters. And then there were those that he oppressed that he had enslaved. And these were the bunny is thought you and he had made them into Shia, as it is said in this ayah and this word she are on it means into factions, but it also means Cheyenne, which is dried up grass and thin, and you know, twigs, basically that are used to light fire. Why? Because they burn very quickly. So people were like weightless fire would be forfeit our own worthless and powerless, their lives were being wasted away. So he divided them. Why so that they could not unite against him. They were busy fighting one

00:55:42--> 00:56:11

another. So how could they think of holding him responsible? And also, if you think about it, to portray himself as a hero he needed he needed a villain. So he criminalized half of his people, blaming them for every evil that existed. And so he slaughtered their boys, and he kept their females alive in order to oppress them in order to perhaps control their population allow our them what the reason was, but yet he tyrannized them.

00:56:12--> 00:56:46

And we wanted to confer favor upon those who were oppressed in the land and make them leaders and make them inheritors. Allahu Akbar, any look at how hard fit our own was trying to oppress the bunny is slightly to, you know, subjugate them to keep them a slaves at to deprive them. But Allah subhanaw taala wanted something else for the bunny is slightly. So remember, even if the whole world were to gather together to harm you, they would not be able to harm you except with what Allah subhanaw taala has already decreed for you.

00:56:47--> 00:57:27

And if Allah subhanaw taala wishes to benefit you, and everybody tried to prevent that from you, any they wouldn't be able to prevent it, Allah subhanho todos will, will prevail and establish them in the land and show for their own and his minister Harmon and their soldiers through them, that which they had feared, you see that our own and his people, they feared losing their power. And that is exactly what happened. And this was the plan of Allah subhanaw taala. And if you think about it, Allah subhanaw taala could have said Khan and one day if Iran could have died and his entire, you know, people could have been ruined. But Allah subhanaw taala brings about change gradually,

00:57:27--> 00:58:03

progressively. Why in this is his mercy upon both parties, those who are committing oppression, and those who are being oppressed. How is it mercy for those who are committing oppression? Because they get a chance to recognize their errors to write their wrongs? But for their own, you see how most are they Sam came showed him miracles he fit our own saw sign after sign after sign if you wanted to accept the truth he could have accepted in the first moment. But he didn't. So an Allah subhanaw taala punished him wasn't that punishment justified? This is how Allah subhanaw taala executes his plan.

00:58:05--> 00:58:49

Now sort of costs us remember is a story of Musa alayhis salaam and we see a huge role played by multiple women in the life of Masada, his Sunnah. So the story of mozzarella Islam begins with a woman also, Allah subhanaw taala says what oh hayner Isla ami Moosa, an earlier he and we inspire to the mother of Moosa, that you should suckle him, you should nurse your baby. So we see here that Allah subhanaw taala inspires good things in the hearts of his believing servants, even though they may not be prophets. So Allah subhanaw taala inspired her put her in her heart that she should nurse her baby Moosa that she should nurse him so that he is not hungry. She should nurse him so that he

00:58:49--> 00:59:35

gets used to her milk, and she should nurse him because the mother's milk is best for the baby. So nurse him on demand, and right before leaving him for either 50 IRA he, but when you fear for him, that fit our owns men will find him and kill him. Because you remember that people have that our own would, you know, go out, go out looking for, you know, little boys, and basically infants and then kill them. So when you fear for his life, when you fear that his life is in danger, then what should you do? You should cast him into the river, Allahu Akbar. Throw him in the river in order to save him. Honey, it's amazing. You would think that your baby is safe in your arms. But no, here the baby

00:59:35--> 01:00:00

was safe in the water, not in the arms of the mother while at the hafi well at the honey and do not fear for his life and safety and do not grieve over being separated from him. Why? Because in our Radu Lake indeed we will return him to you with Jerry luminol mursaleen and we'll make him one of the messengers. So what happened then, and the family of Fidel and picked him up meaning out of the

01:00:00--> 01:00:47

River so that he would become to them an enemy and a cause of grief indeed for their own and high man and their soldiers were deliberate sinners, Allahu Akbar, for their own, his family found baby moose and the water, they picked him up. And they adopted him, and for their own had no idea that this very child would become his enemy and a source of grief for him. So we see that Allah subhanaw taala, saved musala his Salaam by using fit our own by using the enemy of Masada, his Salah. And we learned in a Hadees, that Allah subhanaw taala may support his religion with an unchaste, evil, wicked person even meaning Allah subhanaw taala can use anybody to accomplish his goals. So never be

01:00:47--> 01:01:30

content with the fact that you're doing something religious, or that you are helping a good cause. Yes, that is excellent. But what matters more is that your effort is accepted by Allah, because only then will it be rewarded by Allah. And remember, efforts are accepted by Allah when they're done for his sake, and in the way that he has legislated. So for our own, his family picked up baby Musa, what happened and the wife of Iran said, He will be a comfort of the eye for me and for you, meaning she brought the baby in. And of course for our own when he recognized that this child was of the bunny, he saw you, he was he had ordered that the baby be killed. So she said, let Dr Lu who don't

01:01:30--> 01:02:15

kill him, perhaps he may benefit us or we may adopt him as a son. And they perceived not, they had no idea who that child was. So for their own agreed to keep baby Moosa but notice how as here the wife of her own she said that this baby is convert to finally wellock that he is a comfort of the eye for me and for you, meaning that our own admitted this child is so cute. Any it's amazing how any this woman convinced her husband to not kill this baby. A lot of times, you know, women complain that my husband doesn't listen, he doesn't, you know, agree he's very difficult to deal with. But the thing is that you should know how to talk to him. never hesitate speaking your mind, never

01:02:15--> 01:03:02

hesitate expressing your wishes. And we see over here the importance of giving good suggestions that even though you fear you know, you know that people, you have that strong feeling that people are not going to breno perhaps listen to you still keep suggesting good things. Because no matter how corrupt people are, there can still exist within them good individuals. So those good individuals, when a lost Panasonic gives you a good thought a good idea, then don't hold back, the little good that you can do can also make a huge difference, it can at least minimize the evil. So we see over here, this is the second woman who is playing a role in saving musalla his salon. And we see that

01:03:02--> 01:03:42

the first woman was who the mother of most earliest and um, she did not have much authority. And as he also she did not have much authority. But she spoke she did what she could do. Now on the other hand, what was happening and the heart of musala, asylums, mother became empty of all else. And imagine if she found out that her child when she discovered that her child had been was now in the house of her own. She was trying to save her baby from her own and her baby ended up in the house of her own. She was about to disclose the matter concerning him had we not bound fast her heart that she would be of the believers. Because you see if she panicked, that my baby, my baby that people

01:03:42--> 01:04:26

would have found out and then Mossad is and I would certainly have been killed. So Allah subhanaw taala gave her that courage to remain patient over there to remain quiet. And she said to his sister, follow Him, follow him meaning go follow the baby and see what's happening. So she watched him from a distance while they perceived not. And what did she see? And we had prevented from him meaning from Musashi Salaam, all wet nurses before meaning Musashi Salaam would not take you know the milk of any woman. You see a baby recognizes his mother's scent. So musar SLM refused every nursing woman that was brought to nurse him. And can you imagine the chaos there is a crying hungry

01:04:26--> 01:05:00

baby in the palace, because the Queen has just adopted him. So you can imagine the chaos one woman after the other, you know, people are coming to, you know, consoled the baby to nurse the baby, but the baby is rejecting everyone. So these people were desperate for help. And in that instance, what happened? So she meaning the sister of most artists and I'm said, shall I direct you to a household that will be responsible for him for you while they are to him for his upbringing sincere. What an intelligent girl, you know, she brought them so much relief over here. So we see this is the third

01:05:00--> 01:05:40

A woman now who is playing a role in saving musalla his Salah. So we restored him to his mother, it was just a matter of time within a very short time, baby Musa was brought back to his mother, that she might be content and not grieve, and that she would know that the promise of Allah is true. But most of the people do not know. They don't know that Allah's promises true, which is why they never put their faith in a lie in the first place. They never take that, you know, that bold step in the first place. So remember, it is the belief in the truthfulness of Allah's promises, that allows a person to make a sacrifice that allows a person to take such bold steps. And you see, sometimes a

01:05:40--> 01:06:29

person has to let go of something they love, they have to put it in the river for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala. And what happens, Allah subhanaw taala gives them what is even better. So we see here that not only was most artists and I'm returned to his mother, but now because she was, you know, taking care of the royal baby Yeni She was also being paid for it. So she was now being paid to look after her own child Subhan Allah and he Allah does not close one door with his wisdom except that he opens to with his mercy. This is something that we must believe in. Remember that at sonho davia Romano de la Mourinho was very, very upset. It felt like such a big failure that the Muslims

01:06:29--> 01:07:12

were not able to do original and they have to agree to a treaty that seems so unfair. And Allah subhanaw taala revealed at that time in fatahna, catheter Medina, that we have given you a clear victory, supermodel Dylan Warren who asked Is this a victory? And he was told Yes, it is. Because not only that the Muslims get to do roomlala insecurity The following year, this peace treaty opened the door to so many victories, eventually leading to the conquest of Makkah. So remember, when a door closes, when an opportunity is no longer there, then this is when you're supposed to expect the very, very best from Allah and nothing else. Nothing else. Look at the mother of moosari center. And

01:07:12--> 01:07:52

he there is that waiting time in the middle where you have to be patient. And patients over here means you believe in Allah, his promise, you don't lose hope. And you keep doing what you're supposed to. And Allah subhanaw taala will open the gates of His mercy upon you. And when he attained his full strength, and was mentally mature, We bestowed upon him judgment and knowledge, and thus do We reward the doers of good. So we see here that most artists and I was given hokum, he was given good judgment and also knowledge and he was in worse than he was excellent. And this is reason why las panatela rewarded him with that.

01:07:53--> 01:08:39

Now what happened, and he entered the city at a time of inattention by its people, and found there in two men fighting one from his faction, meaning one was from Bani Israel, and one from among his enemy, one was of the people of their own. And the one from his faction, called for help to him against the one from his enemy, so Mossad SLM in order to help him he struck the other guy, and unintentionally killed him. Most artists and I'm sad This is from the work of shaitan Indeed, he is a manifest misleading enemy. This shows us how strong musala his Salah was any it's it's as if he he almost recognize how strong you know how much strength Allah subhanaw taala had given him he only

01:08:39--> 01:09:26

intended to strike that men, but that one blow you know it it killed the man Subhana Allah and that this was accidental murder and Mousavi said I'm call this the work of shaitan Why? Because you remember Allah subhanaw taala has created us upon a good sound nature. Our fitrah is supposed to be saline, it's supposed to be good and sound there is good within us. And then it is a plan that urges us to do what is wrong. So cholera be in the Welcome to Neff. See, follow fiddley follow follow Allah Mossad has sinned and said My Lord, indeed I have wronged myself. He confessed that he are Rob I have made a huge mistake. What have I done fall fiddly, so forgive me and what happened? Allah

01:09:26--> 01:09:59

forgave him. Indeed he is the Forgiving, the Merciful. Well, sorry, Sam didn't justify it. That Oh, I never intended to kill him. He didn't deny it. Because murder is murder, even if it's accidental. So he asked Allah for forgiveness, and he confessed before Allah. Remember, it is only is to follow that through which we can be saved from the consequences of our sins. Qatada said that By Allah, Most artists that I knew the way out of difficulty, this is why he asked for forgiveness. So when you do something wrong, and you will because you're human

01:10:00--> 01:10:39

Sometimes you know there is accidents bad bad accidents May Allah protect us, but sometimes these things happen. So what is the way out immediately turn to Allah subhanaw taala yeah Allah forgive me Allah I made such a huge mistake. And you see the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he was Morrow so he was completely innocent of sin, yet he would seek forgiveness more than 70 times a day. And when his companion Abu Bakar I'll do a lot more on who so righteous and pious when he asked him to teach him a door that he could say in Salah, the Prophet sallallahu earlier said, I'm taught him to say Allahumma inni lynham to Neff See that? Oh, Allah Indeed, I have wronged myself, lumen Kafeel on

01:10:40--> 01:11:24

a lot of wrong a lot of injustice. Meaning I've committed many, many sins against myself, while I ofuro. The noble illa Anta and there is no one who can forgive sins except for you fall fairly. So forgive me, ma Farah terminar Indyk him a forgiveness that is especially from you, meaning when it will be from you then it will be great forgiveness and that is what I need. What how me and then after that have mercy on me also in Africa until offered over him indeed you were Forgiving and Merciful. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Allah is amazed at his servant, when his servant says La ilaha illa Anta in ne causes them to not see fulfilled Lee the newbie in the hula yo

01:11:24--> 01:12:02

futile do Luba Illa, anta Allah Subhana Allah says, My servant knows that his Lord can forgive him and can punish him too. So this is why he has asked me for forgiveness. So Allah subhanaw taala is amazed. And he likes this when a servant says this that all others know God worthy of worship, but you I have wronged myself, so forgive my sins, because no one can forgive sins except for you mozarella sin and said, My Lord, for the favor that you bestowed upon me, I will never be an assistant to the criminals. This is repentance that a person seeks forgiveness for what was done, and then they promise never to repeat that crime again. But then you see most artists and I miss

01:12:02--> 01:12:42

tested because you know when we recognize our mistake, and we seek forgiveness, we say that Oh Allah, I repent to you than the last panel title will test you are you really sincere in your repentance? So what happened was already Salaam he became inside the city fearful and anticipating exposure, when suddenly the one who sought his help the previous day, cried out to him once again, the same guy now he was fighting someone else. So most artists that I've said to him indeed, you're an evident persistent deviator. Again, you were fighting. And when he wanted to strike the one who was an enemy to both of them, needing to stop the fight, he said, almost Sir, do you intend to kill

01:12:42--> 01:13:24

me as you killed someone yesterday, he exposed Asante sana, you only want to be a tyrant in the land, and do not want to be of the amenda is upon Allah will say, Listen, I'm here to help him the day before. And now what was this guy doing? He was turning against musar to his center. And this is how many people are, they use you, and then they turn against you because they will only use you to their advantage. They don't care about you. And a man came from the farthest end of the city running because now the matter had been exposed. He said almost Indeed, the eminent ones are conferring over you, intending to kill you. Because you see musasa even though he grew up in the house of our own,

01:13:24--> 01:14:07

he was clearly from the bunny is slightly right. And so of course there were people who didn't like him. And so they just needed an excuse, you know, to to to kill him. So leave the city this man said indeed I am to you have the sincere advisors just leave from here because if you stay, they're coming to get you they're going to kill you. So well. Sorry, Sam. Exactly where he was he left. He didn't even go anywhere. He left the city fearful and anticipating apprehension. He said My Lord saved me from the wrongdoing people have been a genie meaning Komal Wally mean, you see how most artists I'm constantly talking to Allah, any and every step there is a mistake he calls upon Allah,

01:14:07--> 01:14:55

his mistake doesn't get exposed. He thanks Allah. Right. And now that he's in difficulty again, he turns back to Allah. Well, a matter what you had to call a median. And when he directed himself to word median meaning that's the direction that he began traveling in Allah, He said ourselves A, B, D, and E so a Sabine, perhaps my Lord will guide me to the sound way, meaning I put my trust in Allah. And I hope I believe I ask that Allah subhanaw taala will guide me to the sound way meaning the most correct way that will lead me straight to my goal without any hardship. Any the most direct and easy way. Jeff and everything mean said that. This means make me go on a path that is suitable

01:14:55--> 01:15:00

that is easy, a road that is easy without any difficulty and will leave

01:15:00--> 01:15:43

Lead me to my goal, meaning that will save me I will really be saved from this trouble. So most artists and I'm called upon Allah, and he made his way towards Medan. And when he came to the well of Meridian, he found there a crowd of people watering their flocks. And he found aside from them to women driving back their flocks. So he realized instantly that something was not right. Because, you know, if people have brought their flocks to a watering place, then why are these ladies you know, keeping their flocks away? So what's happening? So he took notice, and he went up to them and he said, What is your circumstances? Everything okay? How come you're not able to water your animals.

01:15:43--> 01:16:27

They said, We do not water until the shepherds dispatch, meaning with their flocks. And it shows us how modest these women were, that they did not like to go into the crowds of men and some women Subhan Allah they will push and shove men to reach the huddled a sweat. Remember, even if we're doing something good, we must do it the right way. And our father is an old man. So he is not able to bring the flock here. We have to bring it so what did most artists do? He said he saw he watered their flocks for them meaning without even they're requesting him and without even you know setting a you know a some kind of compensation. He just took their flocks and took them to the water watered

01:16:27--> 01:17:10

them and then he went back to the shade and said the lobby in me Lima and Zelda era Yemen heightened *y he said My Lord, indeed I am for whatever good you would send down to me in need. Again he is talking to Allah soprano corner. This is one of the best things that we can do when we're alone was our listener was alone. So you see how he is calling upon Allah over and over again he's talking to Allah and what is his da that Oh Allah I am in need of any good you can send my way I am appeared. And remember when a person shows their *er, their poverty, their neediness before Allah and then asks then Allah subhanaw taala accepts their request. This is a way of inviting the last panel

01:17:10--> 01:17:57

Tara's mercy. Because remember, there is all about showing humility to Allah. Sahara to study said there is no way that can draw a person close to Allah than the way of exhibiting dependency and poverty. So for example, when you're making Dora don't just go on asking, say, Oh Allah, I don't know Teach me or Allah I have done wrong, forgive me, or Allah, I am in need, fulfill my need, or Allah, I am hungry, you know, sometimes you're tired, you're hungry, and you have to do so much work still, you know, you need something you need clothes. Yeah, Allah, I need clothes. You know, express your, your humility before Allah, go to Allah as a beggar. Don't go with pride, go to him as a as a

01:17:57--> 01:18:40

beggar someone who's desperately in need, because that is truly our state. You know how these leader in the last panel, tada is merciful, he is generous, and he feels shy, that his servant should raise his hands before him. And he does not put something good in them. You see what a beggar, you know, extends their hand before you begging you asking you to put something in their hand, what do you do, sometimes you put something in their hand and other times you don't. Allah subhanaw taala does not like to return that hand empty handed, he will put something in it. So beg him ask him as a beggar. And then we see the dignity of Masada, his center in this in this idea that how, you know, he took

01:18:40--> 01:19:23

the flock, watered them and then return the flock and then went back, you know, to the shade and sat over there, meaning he did not hang out with the girls. He did not ask them for some compensation. Nor did he you know, take their flock or he nor did he bother them. He just did the work and you know, left them. And this is real manliness that gave what you want to give, offer what you want to offer and then back off, do not invade a woman's personal space or privacy. So what's your number? So where do you live? Are you married? If you want something good, please ask Allah subhanaw taala but don't go on doing inappropriate things. Just because you got a chance to help someone fudger at

01:19:23--> 01:20:00

who then one of the two women came to him walking with shyness, honesty here is the here is to observe a great deal of hire, and what is high up composure, Grace, modesty. So she came honesty here, as if she had full mastery over it any a perfect display of modesty. And Bukhari writes as if hire was an animal and she had its harness in her hand. And he she was not coming across as someone who's very weak or meek. You know when we think of shyness, we think it is like that of jasmine. You know jasmine and Ella.

01:20:00--> 01:20:46

Right that that is almost flirtatious, that is not shyness. That's the exact opposite of higher, she walked guarding her modesty because she realized that she had a presence. She was not walking provocatively, she did not come in that manner at all. And she walked on us to hear something, say Allah means in spite of meaning, because she had to. And there are times when you know, you must do something, no matter how shy you feel. So, yes, you, you go and do what is necessary, but then you don't lose your modesty in that process. Because remember, higher and emang go together will higher or higher and higher is all good. And when one when a man when one of the two leaves meaning if a

01:20:46--> 01:21:34

man leaves and high out will also leave and if he leaves and he man will also leave and high out. Remember, it is a virtue that leads to paradise, because it guards against sin and indecency. So she said, Indeed, my father invites you, that he may reward you for having watered for us will sign us I'm so fortunate, Allah subhanaw taala makes him meet such good people. Any this lady was first of all modest and confident. Her father is a man of dignity, that he appreciates the kindness of the stranger and wishes to pay him. So when Masada has said I'm came to him, he didn't refuse any if he was being offered a reward and he was in need. So he accepted it was on us and I'm came to him. And

01:21:34--> 01:22:15

related to him the author of the story, the man said, fear not, you have escaped from the wrongdoing, people. This is so beautiful. The first thing he does is that he comforts most artists and on that now you are not in the land of at our own, you are safe here. One of the women said, All my father hire him. Indeed, the best one you can hire is the strong and the trustworthy, meaning he doesn't have any place to go. And he's certainly very capable. It is said that most artists and I'm in the process of watering their animals, he had moved a huge boulder that typically multiple men would push together. So she had seen his strength. And really, we have seen our most artists and was

01:22:15--> 01:22:55

very, very strong, he just punched one man and the men died. So she said that he is strong and trustworthy. And this shows us that strength and trustworthiness are two qualities because of which a person should be hired, because of which a person should be given. You know, some work. A lot of times we get attracted to people's, you know, physical appearance, or the connections that they have or the bribe that they can offer. But that is not what matters. What matters is do they have kuwa? And do they have a manner. These are two very important characteristics. And this is truly a rare combination in people. Romano de la Horne, who would say that Oh Allah I complained to you of the

01:22:55--> 01:23:37

power of the sinful and the weakness of the reliable any there are so few people that I can find who are fit for the work that I want to assign. The father said to masayoshi son I'm indeed I wish to wed you one of these my two daughters on the condition that you serve me for eight years. So panela many, the father was also any very intelligent man, he wouldn't just hire you know, a man Well, he has two daughters, because that would cause any problem. But if you complete 10 it will be as a favor from you. So he gave him a choice eight years or 10 years. And I do not wish to put you in difficulty meaning I'm not forcing you, it's totally up to you, you will find me if Allah wills from

01:23:37--> 01:24:24

among the righteous, you see Masada Salam was in need, and this family was also in need, right? And look at how Allah subhanaw taala brought them together. So the fulfillment of one person's need was in being with the other this is this is so beautiful, Allah subhanaw taala has not made us perfect in the sense that each and every single one of us has their deficiencies has their weaknesses. And sometimes you know, we resent our weaknesses that why why why am I like this? Why is the last panel Tata made me like this or why why is there you know, this thing missing in my life, but remember, as human beings we are meant to complement one another, Allah subhanaw taala has created a healthy

01:24:24--> 01:24:55

dependency within people that we are in need of one another. So you cannot survive on your own, we must learn to exist with people, we must learn to live with them. And remember that if you know living with with people, you know, for example, when it comes to marriage, yes there are you know that those unpleasant things also, but there is also the fulfillment of many other needs. So you see how both of these parties now were a perfect complement to one another.

01:24:56--> 01:24:59

Allah Valley cavaney webinar Musan SLM said that

01:25:00--> 01:25:43

is established between me and you. Whichever of the two terms I complete meaning eight or 10 years, there is no injustice to me. I think it's very fair. And Allah over what we say is witness. So now we see that most artists and he gets a job, a job security, family housewife, he is completely settled. And again, we see the role of a woman over here where this lady she suggested to her father that please hire him, keep him don't don't lose him. So how did this begin? How did Masada is Sam have so many, you know supporters in the journey and how Alice punctata helped him in so many different ways. Because first of all, this was Allah's plan. He, Allah subhanaw taala wanted to help

01:25:44--> 01:26:27

and rescue the bunny is slightly and that was going to happen through Musashi Salaam. And then we see that Masada has Salaam, especially when he when he left Medina and he put his trust in Allah. He put his trust in Allah, he didn't pity himself. And because of that, when he got the opportunity to help someone, to women who are in need, he came forward and he assisted them and what happened when he helped others, Allah subhanaw taala also helped him. And this is something important that we need to remember that when we are in difficulty, let us not just be celebrating our pity party. No, we must put our faith in Allah and we must see what we are capable of doing, what benefit we can bring.

01:26:27--> 01:27:08

And you don't know because of how you help someone, Allah subhanaw taala will help you. So don't be stingy over there. Don't become selfish over there. Be good to others, show them mercy and Allah subhanaw taala will show mercy to you. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said whoever removes a worldly grief from a believer, Allah will remove from him one of the groups of the day of judgment and whoever alleviates the need of a needy person, Allah will alleviate his needs in this world and in the hereafter. And when moussaka Salaam had completed the term, he fulfilled his commitment. And in a hadith we learned that this was the longest of the meaning 10 years he stayed and was traveling

01:27:08--> 01:27:47

with his family. He perceived from the direction of the mount a fire, he said to his family, stay here. Indeed, I have perceived a fire perhaps I will bring you from there some information or burning wood from the fire, that you may warm yourselves. But when he came to it, you see Moses is truly a man Guinea he doesn't send his wife that Okay, go Go check who's there and bring some fire because unfortunately, this is what many men do. They just like to be at home and the women are always going out running the errands, bringing groceries, cooking food, picking up the dishes, any problem Prophet sallallahu earlier said him soon no was what that he would serve his family. This is

01:27:47--> 01:28:32

prophetic Sunnah, that the prophets of Allah looked after their families. But when he came to it, he was called from the right side of the valley in a blessed spot from the tree or Moosa. Indeed, I am Allah, Lord of the worlds, and he was told throw down your staff. But when he saw it, moving as if it was a snake, he turned in flight and did not return. Allah said almost approach and fear not, indeed you are of the secure, insert your hand into the opening of your garment, it will come out white without disease, and draw in your arm close to you as prevention from fear, meaning whenever you feel afraid or anxious than then do this, draw your arm close to you. And this is something that

01:28:32--> 01:29:13

we do in Salah also that we put our arms, you know close to close to ourselves. And this is something that really columns the person down for those are two proofs from your Lord to fit our own and his establishment indeed they have been a people defiantly disobedient will Sarna has said I've said my lord indeed I killed from among them someone and I fear that they will kill me and my brother Howard on is more fluent than me in tongue. So send him with me as a support verifying me indeed I fear that they will deny me Allah spawn tada said we will strengthen your arm through your brother and grant you both supremacy. So they will not reach you, meaning Allah subhanaw taala will

01:29:13--> 01:29:59

protect you. It will be through our signs that you and those who follow you will be the predominant but when musante sam came to them with our signs as clear evidences they said, this is not except invented magic. And we have not heard of this religion among our forefathers and most artists that I've said my lord is more knowing than we are you have who has come with guidance from him and to whom will be the succession in the home. Indeed, wrongdoers do not succeed and fit Arlen said or eminent ones I have not. I have not known you to have a god other than me. Look at how insecure fit our own is. Then ignite for me Oh hammer a fire upon the clay and make for me a tower. A tall tower

01:29:59--> 01:30:00

that I may look

01:30:00--> 01:30:43

At the guard of masa, and indeed, I do think he is among the liars. So if you're always making fun of most artists, and I'm here, and he was arrogant, he and his soldiers into land without right, and they thought that they would not be returned to us. So we took him and his soldiers and threw them into the sea. So see, look, how was the end of the wrongdoers, and we made them leaders inviting to the fire. And on the Day of Resurrection, they will not be helped. And we cause to overtake them in this world a curse. And on the Day of Resurrection, they will be of the despised. So this shows us that we should not follow people blindly. And we see how Allah subhanaw taala brought this tyrant

01:30:43--> 01:31:24

down. And we gave most of the scripture after we had destroyed the former generations as enlightenment for the people and guidance and mercy that they might be reminded this was the purpose of the book and you or Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam were not on the western side of the mount. When we reveal to Mossad, the command and you're not among the witnesses to that meaning you weren't present there to witness all of that. How did you know through revelation, but we produced many generations after Moosa and prolonged was their duration. And you were not a resident among the people of Medina. And reciting to them our verses, but we were senders of this message to you. It is

01:31:25--> 01:32:06

Allah who has informed you of the story. And you were not at the side of the Mount, when we called Moosa, but were sent as a mercy from your Lord to warn people to who know Warner had come before you that they might be reminded to the Prophet sallallahu earlier said him didn't see it himself. He didn't read about it on his own. He didn't hear about it from anybody This was based on on revelation only. And if not, that a disaster should strike them from what their hands put forth of sins. And they would say Our Lord, why did you not send us a messenger? So we could have followed your verses and been among the believers? So why is it that Allah subhanaw taala has sent this

01:32:06--> 01:32:43

revelation as guidance for people so that on the day of genuine people don't have an argument they don't say that oh, we never knew. But when the truth came to them from us, they said, Why was he not given like that which was given to Musa meaning? How come the Prophet sallallahu alayhi Salaam didn't perform similar miracles like you know, a stick a staff turning into a snake than it would have been easy for us to believe also, it is said, Did they not disbelieve in that which was given to Musab before defeat our own believing that they said there they are the two works of magic supporting each other. And indeed We are in both disbelievers. Say, then bring the scripture from

01:32:43--> 01:33:24

Allah which is more guiding than either of them that I may follow it if you should be truthful. So the people of Makkah denied not just the Quran, but also the Torah. So it is said that okay, if this is not good enough for you, then bring something else. But if they do not respond to you, then know that they only follow their own desires, meaning they don't actually follow guidance, they are actually following desire. This is the real problem. And a lot of people make the same mistake. They don't follow in, they follow desire, and who is more astray than one who follows his desire without guidance from Allah. Indeed, Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people. So it is very important

01:33:24--> 01:34:06

that we don't leave knowledge and follow desire. This is very, very dangerous. And part of this is that once we learn what the prophet sallallahu Urdu Sena has taught, then we don't disregard that and start coming up with other things and following other things. No, we must always follow what the Quran says what the prophet sallallahu Sallam said, and we and we have repeatedly conveyed to them the Quran, that they might be reminded those to whom we gave the scripture before it, they are believers in it. So yes, there were people from among a little Kitab who when they learned about the Quran, they believed in it you know what, October no fall in Medina there was Abdullah bin Salaam

01:34:06--> 01:34:49

radi Allahu anhu. And when it is recited to them, they say, we have believed in it. Indeed, it is the truth from our Lord. Indeed we were even before it Muslims, meaning we had already surrendered to Allah. So now that a new scripture a new message has come from Allah, we believe in that also, again, we surrender to Allah, those will be given their reward twice, because when a person from the People of the Book accepts Islam, then they get double reward for what they patiently endured, and because they avert evil through good and from what We have provided them they spend in something very beautiful has been mentioned over here. Double reward for what for the fact that they believed

01:34:49--> 01:34:59

for the fact that they were patient, for the fact that they spend out of what Allah has given them and then something is mentioned in the middle which is where the owner will hazard to say they repel.

01:35:00--> 01:35:45

Evil through good. Meaning when someone harms them, then they bear that pain, but they respond in a better way. Meaning what happens typically is that, you know, if someone hurts us, we try to take revenge immediately. And sometimes in taking revenge, we become worse than the harm that was, we become worse than the person who harmed us, right, we do more harm to them than the harm that they did to us. Or what we will do is we will just be quiet, we won't say anything, right? We will just mind our own business. But here we see that they repel evil with good, any, this is another level of lesson that if someone has hurt you, you actually say nice words to them in response, you actually

01:35:45--> 01:36:27

smile at them, you actually do good to them. And for this, a person needs a whole lot of determination and self discipline. And when they hear ill speech, they turn away from it and say, for us are our deeds and for you are your deeds, peace be upon you, we seek not the ignorant, meaning we don't need to fight over here. We don't want to fight in Nicoletta demon or Shabaab, indeed, or Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam you do not guide whom you will like. But Allah guides whom He wills, and he is most knowing of the rightly guided. You see, when you learn you're naturally worried about your loved ones that they should also know. They should also pray. They

01:36:27--> 01:37:09

should also do good things. But sometimes you keep saying you keep telling them, but they're not interested. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he was delivering the message. And some of the closest people to him, the people that he loved a lot did not believe. And of course, that was a polyp, his uncle, that even at the deathbed of Abu Talib, the Prophet sallallahu earlier sent him kept urging him say the kalama just c'est la ilaha illa Allah, but he refused to say it because of what Abou jehlen his friends were telling him. So the fact is that you cannot guide those whom you love. guidance is only in the hand of Allah, the Exalted and he knows who is deserving of guidance.

01:37:09--> 01:37:50

And they say, if we were to follow guidance with you, we would be swept from our land. Meaning if we follow Islam, if we become Muslim, then we will suffer a lot of those parents Allah says, well I'm nama Killa home Holloman Amina, have we not established for them a safe sanctuary, to which are brought the fruits of all things as provision from us, but most of them do not know any look at your present situation and look at your past? is Allah subhanaw? taala? Not the one who has been providing you? Is he not your rasik? Is he not your provider? So what do you think if you worship Allah subhanaw taala you think Allah is going to abandon you, he is still your rasik? If he has

01:37:50--> 01:38:30

given you so much when you were ignorant, when you didn't know any better when you were doing something wrong, than what do you expect from Allah? subhanaw taala? Isn't he going to still give you once you know, once you seek him once you worship Him? And how many a city have we destroyed? That was insolent in its way of living? That we are an economic force, and we can do whatever we want. And those are their dwellings which have not been inhabited after them except briefly. And it is We Who were the inheritors, meaning so many examples are there before you will people. There were nations who were proud of their worldly advancement of their money of their success. But look what

01:38:30--> 01:39:12

happened? Did it last forever? No, it didn't. So don't compromise on you know, don't, don't give up worshipping Allah subhanaw taala. For the dunya because this dunya is not meant to stay. And never ever be deceived by what you have. It is from Allah and he can take it away whenever he wants. So don't forget Allah because of these things. And never would your Lord have destroyed the cities until he had sent to their mother meaning a central town a messenger reciting to them our verses, because then the message can disperse it can spread to different places, and we would not destroy the cities except while there are people were wrongdoers, and whatever thing you people have been

01:39:12--> 01:39:59

given, it is only for the enjoyment of worldly life and adornment. Some attire will hire to dunya was enough to her warmer in the law higher on what other car and what is with Allah is better and more lasting. So will you not use reason? Any Think about it. One is a house that we make here in this world with the little money that we have. And one is the house which is supposed to be in Gemma. And that is supposed to be made with our deeds. What is in this world is just going to help us here a little bit. It's going to decorate us here a little bit and it's going to come to an end. But what is with Allah the home of the hereafter that is way better if you were to walk around your

01:39:59--> 01:39:59

house right now

01:40:00--> 01:40:48

Would you find any problems in your house, maybe there's a leaky faucet, maybe there's, you know, a wall, the paint of which is just ruined. Or maybe, you know, the carpet is now getting old or maybe, you know, there, there's things that are not functioning properly in your house. And you see that. So, our concern should not just be our worldly homes, use these blessings to earn the home of the Hereafter, then is he whom we have promised a good promise, which he will obtain, like he for whom we provided enjoyment of worldly life, but then he is on the Day of Resurrection among those presented for punishment in hell. And Warren of the day, he will call them and say, Where are my

01:40:48--> 01:41:29

partners which we used to claim, those upon whom the word will have come into effect will say, Our Lord, these are the ones we lead to error, we lead them to error, just as we were in error, we declare our dissociation from them to you, they did not use to worship us look at how people will be abandoned then, and it will be said, invoke your partners, and they will invoke them, but they will not respond to them because they don't even exist. And they will see the punishment. If only they had followed guidance, and mentioned the day he will call them and say, What did you answer the messengers? How did you respond to the call of the messengers, but the information will be

01:41:29--> 01:41:50

unapparent to them that day, so they will not be able to ask one another, meaning they won't be able to respond. But as for one who had repented for a moment, tabber What am I now where I made asylee ha but as for one who had repented, believed and unrighteousness it is promised by Allah, that he will be among the successful

01:41:51--> 01:42:36

we're a buka Hello, Kuma Shah, Oh, well. And your Lord creates what He wills and chooses not for them was the choice. It is entirely Allah soprano. Todos choice, Exalted is Allah and high above what they associate with him. So we see here that Allah subhanaw taala, chooses what He wills, He creates what He wills, He chooses what He wills, people don't have that choice. Allah subhanaw taala chose gibreel he chose Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam any he chose the month of Ramadan, we don't make these decisions. Allah subhanaw taala does, and whatever Allah decides whatever he chooses, is truly the best. And this is why when we have to decide something also when we have to

01:42:36--> 01:43:09

choose something, what should we do? We should ask Allah subhanaw taala for help, we should ask Allah subhanaw taala for Glade for goodness, which means that we should make istikhara we consult people, of course, we ask them for their suggestions. But then don't forget to ask Allah subhanaw taala because we don't always know what is best for us. Allah knows what is best. We are limited in our knowledge in our perception. Allah subhanaw taala knows everything. So how is it that we should do is to

01:43:10--> 01:43:51

pray to record yourself yourself, which means you don't need to hire anybody. You don't need to ask people to make us to hot off for you, you do it yourself. And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam will teach the companions istikhara exactly as he would teach them the assuta from the Quran. Meaning that he would emphasize it, he would teach people to make us to hollow so make it yourself and read it as you read the Quran yourself. So when there is something that you know, that you you need to decide, then consult people, you know, think about the matter. And then once you once you are inclining towards a certain decision, then before you actually make that decision, make

01:43:51--> 01:44:29

istikhara ask Allah subhanaw taala to put her in your decision is harder doesn't mean that you will press harder and then all of a sudden you'll have a dream or you'll have some you know, Revelation and then that will tell you, this is best for you. No istikhara literally means seeking goodness. Meaning when you're making a decision, you're praying to Allah subhanaw taala that he or Allah make this good for me. Meaning This is what I think is good for me make it good for me also. And even when you're doing something good, meaning even when you're deciding to do something good. Then at that time also praise to coddle right. Like for example, we learn about Cena but on the long run her

01:44:29--> 01:45:00

that when she was you know sent a proposal from the Prophet sallallahu where it isn't for marriage, she said, I am not going to do anything until I seek my lord's decision. So she went to her Masjid meaning the place where she used to pray and she performed istikhara so mama never be shows that this shows that even in sorry, Mama No, he said that this shows that even when a person is intending to do something good, they should pray is the harder it is better. So getting for example,

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

You're going for how, you know you have made the decision you have, you know, paid for it, etc. But then again, you still make a staccato because you're asking Allah to make this decision Good for you. And the dollar is the hora inshallah you can find it in any, you know, book, any app in Trello, where there are the hours from the sun. Now, one of the scholars said that any person who prays istikhara and consults people, and then is steadfast in what he does, then he will never face embarrassment, meaning that he will not regret Allah subhanaw taala will bring good to this person. And sometimes it happens you make a decision based on the best of your knowledge, you know,

01:45:44--> 01:46:28

consulting people, you pressed harder, and then you suffer, right? Meaning, for example, things don't always work out in your favor. Yes, it seems as though things are not working out in your favor, but in reality that is still good for you. And your Lord knows what their chests conceal and what they declare, and He is Allah there is no date he accept Him, to him as do all praise in the first life and the hereafter, and his is the final decision. And to him, you will be returned, say have you considered if Allah should make for you the night continuous until the Day of Resurrection? What data other than Allah could bring you light? Then will you're not here, say, Have you

01:46:28--> 01:46:50

considered if Allah should make for you the day continuous until the Day of Resurrection? What data other than Allah could bring you a night in which you may rest, then will you not see and out of his mercy he made for you the night and the day, that you may rest there in and by day seek from his bounty and that perhaps you will be grateful?

01:46:51--> 01:47:37

What a blessing of Allah, any so many blessings we take for granted. The night is also a blessing. But sometimes we complain about it. The daytime is also a blessing, yet we complain about it. So the fact is that we don't always know or perceive what is best for us. We see over here the blessing of the night, the blessing of the day, either they both serve a purpose. And we learn over here in this ayah that Allah has made the night for what for later school fee right so that you may rest there in any the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. He He said that beware of conversing after the night is still meaning don't spend your night in chit chat. Spend it in resting. Right? And then during the

01:47:37--> 01:48:17

day in the morning, especially the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, well Allah bless my people in their early mornings. But our problem is we like to chitchat at night. And then right after budget we like to sleep. So then how could we have blessing and Warren of the day, he will call them and say Where are my partners which you used to claim and we will extract from every nation a witness and say produce your proof and they will know that the truth belongs to Allah, and last from them is that which they used to invent. Now the story of qarun is given, indeed, our own was from the people of Moosa, but he tyrannized them, and we gave him of treasures whose keys would

01:48:17--> 01:49:02

burden a band of strong men there upon his people said to him, Do not exalt Indeed, Allah does not like be exultant. He was from the Bani Israel he, yet he turned against them. And there are people like that who turn against their own people. And our last panel, Tara had blessed him with a lot of wealth, so much that we see you're a band of strong men would just carry the keys, and you think about the treasures now. But what did he do? He used to exalt he used to show off. He was very, very proud. So his people said, Don't exalt because Allah Panthera does not like Fatih hain. You see the forehead, the happiness, the joy, that leads a person to gratitude that is good, but the happiness

01:49:02--> 01:49:31

that makes a person proud, boastful, making him forget Allah subhanaw taala then this kind of happiness is not good. So we should also check ourselves and when we become happy over something, what kind of happiness is that? Is it that I'm feeling so proud of myself that hey, I'm the best or I am something great? Or is it that I'm happy for the blessing that Allah Subhana Allah has given me so the words of sugar and Helm come out of my mouth, we need to keep that eye on ourselves, you know, we we need to check ourselves.

01:49:32--> 01:50:00

We see that in general also any absolutely we should be grateful for the blessings that Allah Allah has given us but we should never feel you know boastful about them or extremely proud of them that Oh, I'm so happy I have this I have that any all of our happiness should not be based on material things. Because sometimes these material things can actually be any source of punishment for a person as we have seen

01:50:00--> 01:50:42

In, in the previous Sutras, this is why we learned that the righteous they would actually worry, when they had a lot of wealth. They didn't become arrogant and boastful over there. They became worried. We learned about having to obey the law, once he looked very upset. So his wife asked her that, I asked him. So once we learned that Paul had even obeyed the law, he looked very upset. And his wife noticed that, so she asked him that, Did I do something wrong? He said, No, you are very good wife. But the thing is, that I have so much wealth now that I don't know what to do with it. She said, don't be upset, call some people and distributed and that is what he did. Subhan Allah,

01:50:42--> 01:51:29

the companions, they got worried when they had a lot of things. Were bitterly FEMA, attack Allah who del our hero, but seek through that which Allah has given you, the home of the Hereafter, meaning it's not evil to be rich, but making this world your only focus that is not healthy. And yet do not forget your share of the world. What is your share of the world, it is your the time that you spend the effort that you spend in doing good things, in using the blessings of Allah lawfully, Yanni, what they're telling him basically is that don't indulge so much in the blessings that Allah has given you that you forget about the hero that you forget about doing good things. And he don't just

01:51:29--> 01:51:36

consume everything here. Don't just consume everything here, prepare something for your future also.

01:51:37--> 01:52:20

And this is very important that we need to remember also, that the good things that Allah has given us, they're not just for us to enjoy here. So all of our time should not just be going in, you know, preparing delicious foods and then eating them and then enjoying them and then cleaning up after that, and then the cycle repeats itself. No, we should also be making some time for a bother for the recitation of the Quran. Yes, eat good food. But that should not be your only concern. You weren't just created to enjoy good things in life, you were created to do us an homage to the to worship Allah subhanaw taala. And yes, you seek Allah subhanaw taala approval through the things that you do

01:52:20--> 01:52:52

any when you do them in the right way with a good intention. Will you do them for the approval of Allah subhanaw taala you do them in the way that Allah Pandora has legislated you will be rewarded. But remember, there are different degrees right? meaning all good deeds are not of the same level. So also make time to do things which will bring you more reward. And this is especially relevant to you know, women, especially these days, you know, sometimes you don't always get the time to

01:52:53--> 01:53:26

you know, make or bother, you know, for instance pray in the night or recite a lot of the Quran. So yes, you should be more deliberate and conscious when you are looking after your family and make that intention sincere for the sake of Allah sponsor how to do that in the best way possible. Absolutely. inshallah, you will be rewarded for that. But then also be honest with yourself, be honest with yourself, you know, just because you're a mother, it doesn't mean that you now have the license to or now you are not required to recite the Quran anymore, or that now you're not required to make the could anymore, that now your children are your ultimate focus because Allah tells us

01:53:26--> 01:54:08

latterly Come on welcome Allah, Allah to come and victory Allah Do not let your children and your wealth distract you from the remembrance of Allah. So be honest with yourself and see where you have the time that free time where is that time going? Any you know, as women we make time out to you know, do our makeup and hair etc. And sometimes we can spend hours doing such things. And we let let us be honest with ourselves, we also have to make time for a bada. And yes, it can be challenging, yes, it can be a bit difficult, but push yourself a little bit and you will find that time you will be able to and you know what, when you will recite the Quran, your children will also learn it's

01:54:08--> 01:54:53

important when you will make the could your children will also make so be a role model. Right? Be a good example for your children. And it is possible to do that. So they told they advised him that don't forget your share of the world. Meaning don't just, you know spend your life in enjoying good things here also worry about the home of the hereafter. Because in our heads we learned that the wealthy people will have little reward on the Day of Resurrection except upon whom Allah has conferred goodness. And then he's he spends it to his right his left in front of him and behind him, meaning you keep spending it in good causes. And this is how such a person will be successful.

01:54:55--> 01:54:59

And remember, we are going to be asked about where we spend our time.

01:55:00--> 01:55:43

And you know our wealth, how we earned it and where we spent it. And they told him and do good as Allah has done good to you, and desire not corruption in the land. Indeed Allah does not like the corrupters any Allah has been good to you, so you also be good to others. And in an Irishman, we learned that Allah subhanaw taala has selected certain people for his blessings, why in order to benefit His servants through them. So he keeps giving them as long as they keep spending on Allah's creation. But when they become stingy, when they become selfish, when they stop giving, the last pounce on it also takes those blessings away from them, and gives them to someone else. So this is

01:55:43--> 01:56:25

why they reminded him do good as Allah has done good to you, and desire not corruption in the land, because Allah does not like the corrupters. And you see, when a person is just focused on fulfilling their desires, right, their pleasure. And especially this happens, this becomes even more tempting, when a person has a lot of money, right? Then now the person is buying this product and that product and that product. And now one thing after the other, look at the garbage that we produce, and tell me what is this garbage except for facade, anywhere? Where's all that plastic going? Where is all that garbage going? Is isn't that destroying our planet? So just because Allah has given you money,

01:56:25--> 01:57:09

it doesn't mean that you spend it on every desire. No, you spend it on your needs, absolutely you do. But then remember that these blessings were not given for you to enjoy life here. Unless Pandora gave you these blessings so that you make an even better home for yourself in the hereafter. So do good to others as Allah has been good to you, and do not do not spread corruption in the land. Because I lost pounds on it is not like that. He said cardones response was, I was only given it because of knowledge. I have a staford Allah, he said, This is mine. So I can do whatever I want. I earned it, I deserve it. And I can do whatever I want. You don't tell me how I should spend my

01:57:09--> 01:57:09

money.

01:57:11--> 01:57:52

It has said Did he not know that Allah had destroyed before him of generations, those who are greater than him in power and greater in accumulation. But the criminals about their sins will not be asked any? Didn't they earn a lot of money also? Yes, they did. What happened? Did it save that? No, it didn't. So a person should never ever be proud of the knowledge that a loss parent has given them. And the ability the opportunities that are lost puntata has given them and never think that just because Allah has given you a blessing. Now you can do whatever that you want with it. Know, Allah subhanaw taala gave it and he will question you about it. So one day qarun he came out before

01:57:52--> 01:58:36

his people in his adornment. So those who desire the worldly life said Oh, with that we had like what was given to the borrower If only we had the same. They felt that yearning, that greed in their heart. Indeed, he is one of great fortune. But those who had been given knowledge, said, water you the reward of Allah is better for he who believes and does righteousness, and none are granted except the patient. These are true, older alien people of knowledge, who remember they're in when they need it, and they don't get affected by the wealth of the wealthy. And it is said here, what are you the AHA Illa sabi rune, you need the reward of the Hereafter is better for those who believe

01:58:36--> 01:59:25

and do good. But none can believe and do good except for those who are patient. Patience is needed to learn, patience is needed with a man patience is needed in order to do good deeds. And we cause the earth to swallow him and his home. And there was for him, no company to aid him other than Allah. nor was he of those who could defend themselves. Nobody could pull him out. And he could not come out himself either. For our own was sorry, our own was so proud of his wealth, and he was swallowed in the earth with his wealth. Remember, our lost pounds Allah does not like pride at all. We learned a Hadees that there was a person who was walking with pride, because of his fine clothes.

01:59:26--> 01:59:31

And he was well pleased with his appearance and he was very impressed by the way that he was looking.

01:59:32--> 01:59:38

And Allah made him sink in the earth. And he would go on sinking in that until the Day of Resurrection.

01:59:39--> 02:00:00

Any we are on Earth, we are down below. And we should be humble. We should not be arrogant. And just because we're wearing nice clothes. We've got a nice fancy bag on right or we are you know that you know decked out you know we have adorned ourselves, it doesn't mean that we start feeling that we

02:00:00--> 02:00:13

So great, we should be humble. And those who had wished for his position the previous day began to say oh how Allah extends provision to whom He wills of his servants and restricts it, meaning this is Allah's decision.

02:00:15--> 02:00:54

If not that Allah had conferred favor on us, he would have caused it to swallow us, meaning we could be like our own also. And remember a person will be with those whom he loves, or how the disbelievers do not succeed. This is the result of pride. The person who thinks highly of himself because of his riches will never succeed. tilka, Dell will a hero, that home of the Hereafter, we assigned to those who do not desire exalted pneus upon the earth, or corruption, and the best outcome is for the righteous. So we see that the blessings of this world, yes, they're given to those who are righteous and also those who are not righteous, and the blessings of this world no

02:00:54--> 02:01:39

matter how many there are, there are temporary, but the blessings of the hereafter the home of the Hereafter, who is worthy of that layer, you redo the old one, Phil or we will have a saga, those who do not desire exalted pneus upon the earth or corruption, meaning the meaning Jana is for people who are humble for people who don't cause corruption. So, sudo Casals begins with the story of at our own, and towards the end, we see the story of our own and both of them were given power, they were given a lot of wealth, but look at their end, look at their final outcome. So it is said well are people to deal with the pain? The final the best outcome is actually for the righteous and where is

02:01:39--> 02:02:20

that? It is in paradise. So be humble here. Mangia. Erbil has an IT fellow who hire ramen Ha. Whoever comes on the Day of Judgment with a good deed we'll have a better than it. And whoever comes with an evil deed, than those who did evil deeds will not be recompensed except as much as what they used to do. Indeed, he who imposed upon you the Quran, will take you back to a place of return the Prophet sallallahu already sent has been promised over here that Allah will take you back to Makkah, say my lord is most knowing of who brings guidance and who is in clear error. And you were not expecting that the book would be conveyed to you, but it is a mercy from your Lord. So do not be an

02:02:20--> 02:02:50

assistant to the disbelievers. And never let them avert you from the verses of Allah after they have been revealed to you and invite people to your Lord and never be of those who associate others with Allah will enter the room or Allah healer, aha and do not invoke with Allah, another deity only call upon him. There is no day to accept him, everything will be destroyed except his face, his his the judgment and to Him you will be returned so be his servant.

02:02:51--> 02:03:18

So Latella Anca booth Bismillah Ar Rahman AR Rahim, lF Lam Meem do the people think that they will be left to say we believe and they will not be tried. This is what they think that they will say la ilaha illa Allah and then there will be no test after that. No way. This life is a test. Every person is tested. And the believer is tested a little bit more

02:03:19--> 02:04:08

in proportion to the level of his faith. We learn in a Hadees that the Prophet sallallahu rayson was asked that who is tested most severely and he said the prophets then the righteous then the next best. A man is tested according to the level of his faith, meaning if his religion is firm, his test is increased. And if his faith is weak, then his test is reduced. It is lightened. So this is the way of law that he tests his believing servants. He tests he tests them to see if they're really true, and also in order to purify them. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Bella tribulation will continue to befall on the believing men and the believing woman in their body, in

02:04:08--> 02:04:52

their wealth in their children, until they will meet Allah and there will be no sin on them. Allahu Akbar. But we have certainly tried those before them. And Allah will surely make evident those who are truthful, and He will surely make evident the liars, Allah subhanaw taala already knows. But he tests and examines through tests because this is His justice. He will not judge people based on his knowledge only, he will give them a chance to do what they will do. And then he will give them the reward or the punishment accordingly, or do those who do evil deeds think they can outrun us evil is what they judge do the thing that they can go on doing whatever they want, and then they will not be

02:04:52--> 02:04:59

held accountable, no way. There will be consequence for what they are doing. And this is something that that

02:05:00--> 02:05:42

It really frightened us. That should really worry us. We learned that once a man came to the Prophet sallallahu earlier sentiment said that he had a sutala I have some slaves. You know, sometimes they lie to me, sometimes they cheat me. Sometimes they don't listen to me. So I beat them at times, and I, you know, I'm a little harsh with them. So then what will happen with me, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam replied, that they're cheating and their lies and their disobedience will be compared to you're punishing them. So, if you're punishing them is greater than what they have done to you, then the punishment will be on you meaning then you will, you will be punished for the

02:05:42--> 02:06:32

wrongs that you have done to them. And if their crimes against you are equal to what you do to them as punishment, then Okay, any you have you you have executed justice yourself. And if what what they have done to you is worse than what you do to them, then you will be granted justice. So this man became so worried that he began crying before the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. And then, the Prophet sallallahu earlier said, and recited the idea that one other rumor was ino pista, Leon Wilkie Yama, that we will establish the scales of justice on the Day of Judgment, and the no person will be wronged at all. And even if there is mythos to headbutt him in huddle, in the tiniest amount

02:06:32--> 02:07:18

of something, Allah subhanaw taala will bring it and Allah sufficient as one who takes people to account. So we have to be very careful, man, canaille juliaca Allah, whoever should hope for the meeting with Allah. Indeed, the term decreed by Allah is coming, meaning piano is not far. And remember, a death is closer than the shoelace on a person's foot. And he is the hearing the knowing. So don't be impatient. Yes, sometimes things get tough tests are, you know, they can become very, very difficult. But remember, no difficulty in this life is permanent. It has an ending to it. So be patient, and have hope in the meeting with Allah remind yourself, I have to meet Allah. So let me be

02:07:18--> 02:08:01

patient right now. Let me keep working hard right now, so that Allah subhanaw taala will be pleased with me. And the last panel title will reward me, woman jaha, for innama yuja heydo enough, see, and whoever strives only strives for the benefit of himself. So when you exert any effort for the sake of Allah, any you're benefiting yourself, Indeed, Allah is free from need of the worlds. So if you lose your nose, if you do good, you do good for your own self, Allah doesn't need your worship, and those who believe and do righteous deeds, we will surely remove from them their misdeeds, and will surely reward them according to the best of what they used to do. This is Allah's mercy, and we have

02:08:01--> 02:08:42

enjoined upon man, goodness to parents, but if they endeavor to make you associate with me, that of which you have no knowledge, do not obey them. So remember, we are supposed to obey our parents, but not unconditionally, there is no human In fact, when we obey unconditionally, except for the for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So if parents are telling you to do shake, then do not obey them, to me is your return and I will inform you about what you used to do. So we learned that sad little yellow horn when he embraced to snap his mother, she took an oath that I will not eat or drink or anything until you leave Islam. Right. And she said that, you know, your your God tells you

02:08:42--> 02:09:19

that you should be good to your parents. So why aren't you being good to me? So she remained like that without eating and drinking for a very long time, and she became really weak, so some of her other children forced her to eat. So when she regained her consciousness, she started praying against sad little dilla horn. So of course, this was very worrisome for him. So Allah subhanaw taala revealed this idea that no You did the right thing. If your parents are telling you to do shirk, then you will not obey them. If your parents are telling you to do something unlawful, you will not obey them, you will dis disobey them, but respectfully, Subhanallah, respectfully, not

02:09:19--> 02:09:56

rudely, which means that even if your parents are non Muslim, you don't have the right to be rude and harsh with them. Then what do you think about parents who are Muslim, and those who believe and do righteous deeds, we will surely admit them among the righteous into paradise. And other people are some who say we believe in Allah, but when one of them is harmed for the cause of Allah and this certainly happens, they consider the trial of the people as if it were the punishment of Allah. And so what does this person do? He stops obeying Allah, any This is something that is normal. When you do something when you bring about a change that is very visible.

02:09:57--> 02:09:59

You know, sometimes people will be very harsh with

02:10:00--> 02:10:40

You. So don't think that the harshness of people is actually a lust punishment. So now you should stop doing good because you just got punished for it. No, this is not punishment, this was a test. But if victory comes from your Lord, they say, indeed we were with you, meaning they want all the benefits is not Allah, most knowing of what is within the chests of all creatures. So check yourself Why are you worshiping Allah? Why are you doing good? Is it to receive good in this life? Or is it for the sake of Allah, if it's for the sake of Allah, and it doesn't matter what hardships what what difficulty you face along the way, you must keep going until you meet Allah. And Allah will surely

02:10:40--> 02:11:19

make evident those who believe and He will surely make evident the hypocrites, and those who disbelieve, say to those who believe follow our way and we will carry your sins, but they will not carry anything of their sins. Indeed, they're liars, any they'll never ever free them of their burdens. On the day of judgment, they won't say okay, you committed the sin because of me, give me the sin, give me the punishment because a they will not be able to and be they will never be willing to, because each person will now be you know, running away from even their their close loved ones trying to save themselves, while a yummy Luna Carla whom we're at Carla Mara Akali him, but they

02:11:19--> 02:11:58

will surely carry their own burdens and other burdens along with their burdens of whom they lead astray. And they will surely be questioned on the Day of Resurrection, about what they used to invent. So be very careful. When you tell somebody to do something. If it is good, then remember that inshallah they will get the reward of the good that they're doing, and you will also be rewarded for it. But if it is something bad, then yes, they will be responsible for what they're doing, but you will also be responsible, you will also have to carry the burden of sin. So be careful. And we certainly sent new to his people. And he remained among them 1000 years minus 50

02:11:58--> 02:12:42

years. This is mentioned in the Quran. 950 years know how they said I'm stayed among them, and the flood sees them while there were wrongdoers, but we saved him and the companions of the ship, and we made it a sign for the worlds and we sent Ibrahim, when he said to his people, worship Allah and fear him that is best for you. If you should know, you only worship besides Allah idols and you produce a falsehood, any there is no truth, these idle these are all liars. Indeed, those who worship besides Allah, do not possess for you the power of provision, they don't give you anything. So seek from Allah provision and worship Him and be grateful to him, to Him you will be returned. So

02:12:42--> 02:13:26

when you came from him, and you have to go back to him, then why do you forget him now? And if you people deny the message, already nations before you have denied and there is not upon the messenger except the duty of clear notification, have they not considered how Allah begins creation and then repeats it? Why do they deny, indeed that for Allah is easy, say, travel through the land and observe how he began creation, then Allah will produce the final creation. Indeed, Allah over all things is competent, he punishes whom He wills and has mercy upon whom He wills, and to Him you will be returned, and you will not cause failure to Allah upon the earth, nor in the heaven. No, you

02:13:26--> 02:14:09

cannot escape, you cannot get away and you have not other than Allah, any protector or any helper, and the ones who disbelieve in the signs of Allah and the meeting with him, those have despaired of My Mercy, and they will have a painful punishment. And the answer of Ibrahim's people was not but that they said kill him or burn him. But Allah saved him from the fire indeed, and that are Signs for people who believe. And Ibrahim said, very important, he said, You have only taken other than Allah idols as a bond of affection among you in worldly life, meaning, you worship these idols not because of the idols, but you worship them because, you know, this is something that connects you

02:14:09--> 02:14:51

all together. And he This is your social structure. This is what brings you all together socially. Right? Your life revolves around them, they these idols have become the center of your lives, right? And your social lives also revolve around these idols, you meet one another, you prepare food together, you offer sacrifice together, you observe your festivals together, etc. and which means that really, it's it's not about the idols, it's not about the people, it's about, you know, just what you have become accustomed to. So think about it question and this is something that we need to reflect over also, that why is it that we go to the masjid is it just for the community? Or is it

02:14:51--> 02:15:00

for Allah subhanaw taala? Why is it that we do certain things is it just for that? So that sense of you know, social belonging, or is it really for all

02:15:00--> 02:15:26

Lots of panel data, because the one who worships Allah will worship Allah, when there is a community and also when there is no community. Definitely the community is beautiful. It is excellent, it has its place it has its importance. But you know, like Abubakar, don't you love Martin who said, at the at the death of the Prophet sallallahu, alayhi wasallam, that whoever used to worship Muhammad Sallallahu wasallam should know that Mohammed has died. But whoever used to worship Allah should know that Allah is Ever living.

02:15:27--> 02:16:07

So we need to check ourselves, that why is it that we do certain things, and then even when we love certain people, and we work with them, and we worship Allah subhanaw taala with with them, you know, when we do good things with them? What is it that is bringing us together? Is it that they feel a social void in our lives? Or is it that we really truly love them, because of Allah for the sake of Allah, because if that friendship is for the sake of Allah, then that friendship will last forever, that love will outlive this world. Then on the Day of Resurrection, you will deny one another, and curse one another, which shows that if people come together for a cause other than Allah, and they

02:16:07--> 02:16:44

cooperate in sin and aggression, then this friendship will turn into enmity, this love will turn into hatred. And if people love another loved one another for the sake of Allah, then that love will last forever. And your refuge will be the fire, and you will not have any helpers. And Luther believed him. Ibrahim already said, I'm sad Indeed, I will emigrate to the service of my Lord, I will emigrate to my Lord, meaning I will go wherever my Lord tells me, indeed, he is the Exalted in Might the wise, and we gave to him is how can you are called, and placed in his descendants Prophethood and scripture, and we gave him his reward in the world, and indeed, he is in the

02:16:44--> 02:17:25

hereafter among the righteous, and mentioned Luther, when he said to his people, indeed, you commit such immorality, as no one has preceded you with from among the world's, indeed you approach men and obstructive road, meaning there were also highway robbers, and you commit in your meetings, every evil, meaning opening your gatherings you commit lewd acts, you know, what is to do such things in privacy? And if Allah has covered you, then Okay, you cover your sin. But the other is that a person openly in front of other people proudly, you know, together in groups, they're committing evil stuff in Allah. And the answer of his people was not but that they said, Bring us the punishment of Allah,

02:17:25--> 02:17:33

if you should be of the truthful color have been soalnya idol comb of Sydney and he said, My Lord, support me against the corrupting people.

02:17:34--> 02:18:15

And when our messengers came to Ibrahim with the good news with the good tidings of the birth of a son, they said Indeed, we will destroy the people of that city meaning of the city of loot Ernie his center. Indeed, its people have been wrongdoers. Ibrahim is that on set indeed, within it is loot. How can you destroy that place, they said we are more knowing of who is within it, we will surely save him and his family except his wife, she is to be of those who remain behind. And when our messengers came to loot, he was distressed for them and felt for them great discomfort because he didn't know there were angels. They came in the form of men. They said Fear not nor grieve indeed we

02:18:15--> 02:19:03

will save you and your family except your wife, she is to be of those who remain behind. So you see the people of North artists and um, they didn't just commit this act in in the privacy of their homes. We learned that you know, it was mentioned earlier that they used to Dr. Rona Seville, they used to obstruct the road they were highway robbers, and it is said that they would also any attack the travelers. So if ever somebody was passing through their city, or you know stop there to rest Subhan Allah they would any rape other men by force Subhan Allah any their evil had gone beyond limits. Yet not only Sam continue to preach, he continued to advise them. So what happened? Indeed

02:19:03--> 02:19:42

we will bring down on the people of the city punishment from the sky because they have been defiantly disobedient yep sukoon defiantly disobedient. And We have certainly left of it a sign as clear evidence for people who use reason any not only the ruins, but their story is preserved not just in the Quran, but even in the Bible, and too muddy and we sent their brother sure aid and he said, Oh my people worship Allah and expect the last day and do not commit abuse on the earth spreading corruption, but they denied him. So the earthquake sees them and they became within their home corpses fallen prone, and we destroyed all in some mood, and it has become clear to you from

02:19:42--> 02:20:00

their ruined dwellings, and shaitan had made pleasing to them their deeds. This is the real problem when shaitan beautifies the sins of people and averted them from the past. And they were endowed with perception stuff that Allah can almost stop sleeping. It wasn't that they were you know

02:20:00--> 02:20:42

mentally retarded or they were meant, you know, illogical they didn't have good sense. They were endowed with perception, yet they didn't benefit from it. And we destroyed our own and fit our own and Harmon and Moosa had already come to them with clear evidences, and they were arrogant in the land, but they were not out runners of our punishment they couldn't escape. So each We seized for his sin. And among them were those upon whom we sent a storm of stones. And among them were those who were seized by the blast from the sky. And among them were those whom we cause the earth to swallow. And among them were those whom we drowned. And Allah who would not have wronged them, but

02:20:42--> 02:21:02

it was they who were wronging themselves or stuff in a law. This is why we should keep asking Allah tada for protection that he or Allah protect me. My sins are many, but your mercy is also great, Allah Khomeini are with the becoming zewail in arithmetic, what the How will your Aafia tick? What bhujia atina qmatic wojo mirissa Holic

02:21:03--> 02:21:56

the example of those who take allies other than Allah, because you see, our own depended on his wealth fit our own depended on his power. Right. And these other nations, like the people of Ibrahim Arneson, they depended on their social structure any any any ally that people take other than Allah, that they choose over Allah subhanaw taala that ally whether it is an idol or a system or you know material blessing anything What is it? It's reality is like that of the spider who takes a home and indeed the weakest of homes is the home of the spider if they only knew any all supports besides Allah are like is spider's web. Can you? Is it can it can it ever protect, it doesn't protect the

02:21:56--> 02:22:43

spider, the spider is soul visible, any Yes, it is possible to trap some food in there. But any it doesn't shelter the spider against the weather or against its, you know, enemy. No, it is so visible. You see other creatures, they will go hide in a hole, they will go, you know, make a nest somewhere, they will go hide in a cave, they will take shelter in different ways. But the spider its web is such that it keeps it completely exposed. It doesn't protect it at all. So just like that, when a person depends on someone other than Allah, then no matter how robust and how strong and how firm, it seems, it's actually very, very infirm because he has the spider's web is truly amazing.

02:22:43--> 02:23:36

Any if you think about the web itself, the way it is structured, and you know the the web itself, any it's it's amazing, it's so fine. Yet it is so so beautiful at times and it is okay any for the spider, it's able to catch its prey in that. But at the same time, it is very, very feeble. It is very weak. And just like that anything that we depend on other than Allah, soprano Karna, don't be deceived by its appearance. In reality, it is weak, it is impermanent, it is going to break it is going to snap sooner or later. Indeed, Allah knows whatever thing that they call upon other than Him. And indeed, Indeed, Allah knows whatever thing they call upon other than Him, and He is the

02:23:36--> 02:24:24

Exalted in Might the wise and these examples we present to the people, but none will understand them except those of knowledge. Haleakala who somehow work you will, Allah will help. Allah has created the heavens and the earth and truth. Truly It is he who is the creator, it is only he who deserves worship, and it is only heat that we should rely upon. In NaVi Valley cola is a little mini indeed in that is surely his sign for those who believe. Meaning those who believe in Allah subhanaw taala should learn from the creation that they see that it is only Allah subhanaw taala who is reliable. So let us put our trust in Allah and let us worship only Allah and let us hold on to him and never

02:24:24--> 02:24:39

give preference to anything over him. But let us give preference to Allah over everything else. So panic Allahumma will be handing a shadow Allah ilaha illa Anta estafa Luca Tobu la wa salaam alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuh will

02:24:47--> 02:24:58

always be like administrate honorary jamis smilla rahmanir rahim to secular parents Mr. Lamia, my last medalla was to take a lesson from all the lessons that we've learned today.

02:25:00--> 02:25:06

I mean, students in July I'm going to enable chat. And let's have a quick review.

02:25:10--> 02:25:19

of cellularity Kareem Am I bad foulds Billahi min ash shaytani r rajim Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim rubbish raha Lisa de silly Emily raha Dr. De melissani

02:25:31--> 02:25:34

Laila so we've reached Jews 20 Mashallah

02:25:37--> 02:25:39

time is really going fast isn't it?

02:25:48--> 02:25:49

Yes running

02:25:51--> 02:25:57

Okay, so we are going to inshallah take a look at the story of bottle

02:26:03--> 02:26:05

Yes. So much to learn so

02:26:07--> 02:26:10

let's take a look at the story this Mila

02:26:11--> 02:26:30

So indeed, our own words from the people of Mussolini sinner, but he Tyrion is them. And we gave him of treasures whose keys would burden a band of strong men there upon his people said to him Do not exalt Indeed, Allah does not like the exultant.

02:26:31--> 02:26:36

Okay, so who was r1? He was from the bunnies, right?

02:26:38--> 02:26:43

And he was the grandson, the grandson of the apple bunnies.

02:26:45--> 02:26:45

So he

02:26:47--> 02:26:48

was from

02:26:51--> 02:26:53

a lineage of the prophets.

02:26:55--> 02:26:59

And he was a close relative of musante center.

02:27:02--> 02:27:05

And he was hella good looking.

02:27:07--> 02:27:10

I am and he was extremely wealthy.

02:27:12--> 02:27:15

Okay, so is there anything left here? Subhan Allah.

02:27:17--> 02:27:19

He had everything right.

02:27:20--> 02:27:22

And these are the kinds of people

02:27:23--> 02:27:24

most people admire.

02:27:30--> 02:27:34

Yes, a lot of other blessings as well that are not mentioned here.

02:27:36--> 02:27:42

Yes, then he would become like a nephew to your sofa. Listen, I'm exactly. Okay. So then.

02:27:44--> 02:27:47

Yes. So what did he do with everything that he was given?

02:27:49--> 02:27:50

He didn't help his people.

02:27:52--> 02:28:11

So he had so much but he didn't help the relatives. He didn't help the community. He didn't help the poor. Okay, he didn't do anything good with it. Yes, he oppressed the bunnies, right? So he is from the bunnies, right? Right. But Allah, He oppressed them.

02:28:12--> 02:28:14

He didn't

02:28:15--> 02:28:16

give any

02:28:19--> 02:28:21

favor to the people he was from.

02:28:24--> 02:28:29

And so the bunnies trail, we see that they reminded him to be humble.

02:28:31--> 02:28:36

And one of my last one that I had blessed him with treasures, it says treasures.

02:28:38--> 02:28:49

The keys were so heavy that it would take a group of strong men to lift these keys. Right, so these keys were huge. They were huge. And they were

02:28:51--> 02:28:56

as far as all together, many strong men would be needed to lift it.

02:29:00--> 02:29:28

Right So what did the buddy Israel advise him of let's seek through that which Allah has given you the home of the hereafter. And yet do not forget your share of the world. And do good as Allah has done good to you. And desire not corruption in the land. Indeed, Allah does not like the corrupters Yes, they told him to be humble. So the evil advice they said, invest in the author. So basically, use the dunya

02:29:30--> 02:29:35

to buy the opera. So Allah Subhana Allah has given all of us something in this dunya

02:29:37--> 02:29:43

so what we can do is use what he's given us and by the opera with it.

02:29:44--> 02:29:55

So whatever it is that he's given us, it could be something tangible, it could be intangible, right? So maybe someone has been blessed with wealth, right? Then we can use the wealth

02:29:57--> 02:29:59

and inshallah I invest in the author, maybe Allah

02:30:00--> 02:30:01

has given someone skills

02:30:02--> 02:30:06

so they can use these skills and invest in the aka.

02:30:09--> 02:30:16

Yes, give in the dunya to gain the hereafter. But does this does this mean I have to give everything away?

02:30:17--> 02:30:26

No. Right? So keep some for the dunya as well. So last panda has blessed us. That means we can also benefit from it ourselves.

02:30:29--> 02:30:42

Yes, moderate Li spent balance Exactly. So we can definitely if the last month it has given us more than Yes, we can spend more on ourselves as well. But don't forget the author.

02:30:44--> 02:30:55

And then give to others as Allah has given to you. Right? So Allah, Allah has given you so you should also give to others. Is there any loss when we give something for the sake of Allah?

02:30:57--> 02:30:59

No, right. When?

02:31:00--> 02:31:01

When we give sada

02:31:03--> 02:31:05

when we give sadaqa what happens to our money?

02:31:07--> 02:31:09

Is it become less?

02:31:11--> 02:31:20

Yes, is increased rice? So finally, yes, it's increase. And Alas, panthella returns it to us.

02:31:23--> 02:31:25

Yes, so that's my thought replaces it with better.

02:31:27--> 02:31:31

Has anyone experienced this where you gave Seta and you lost something back?

02:31:34--> 02:31:48

Yes. So vanilla right away so many times. Right. So we give sadaqa. And Allah subhanaw taala gives it back to us. Devil Subhan Allah very recently.

02:31:50--> 02:31:54

So if someone hasn't tried this, then I would

02:31:56--> 02:32:06

advise you inshallah, to give some sort of actually, it doesn't matter how much it is, because that's not what's important. What's important is that we do it with sincerity.

02:32:09--> 02:32:32

So give some sadaqa today, and then you'll see that you'll get it back. Sometimes you get it back in the form of money, sometimes you get it back in the form of a gift, which costs much more than what you had spent. Right. So give and test in shuttler. And you will see that our last handler returns it multiplied many times over.

02:32:33--> 02:32:36

Yes, definitely. There's a feeling of gratitude as well.

02:32:39--> 02:32:46

Yes, if we're aware of it, then Alice panthella will make us realize that yes, this is from a Docker.

02:32:48--> 02:32:59

And then they told him that corruption is a hated act, right? That this is something that unless panda dislikes, right, so do not spread facade don't spread corruption on the earth.

02:33:04--> 02:33:05

But look at his answer.

02:33:07--> 02:33:26

He said, I was only given that because of knowledge I have. Did you not know that Allah had destroyed before him generations who are greater than him in power and greater an accumulation of wealth, but the criminals about their sins will not be asked. Okay, so what was his answer?

02:33:27--> 02:33:44

He basically said, I deserve this. I earned it through my knowledge. I earned it through my efforts. It's my wealth. I know, I knew how to earn it. And I knew how to save it. Yes, he gives credit to himself.

02:33:45--> 02:33:53

Right? So if someone thinks like this, I knew how to earn and I knew how to save, then what are they basically saying that that's my life, someone is poor?

02:33:55--> 02:33:57

What's that it's their fault.

02:33:58--> 02:34:00

If someone doesn't have knowledge,

02:34:01--> 02:34:03

it's their fault.

02:34:04--> 02:34:07

If someone doesn't earn

02:34:08--> 02:34:14

some type of status, or some kind of skill, then it's because they didn't put in the effort.

02:34:16--> 02:34:28

So basically, this shows so much arrogance, right? He's taking everything on less path Allah has given him and taking full credit for it.

02:34:32--> 02:34:34

Yes, very boastful.

02:34:36--> 02:34:45

Yes, I mean, I mean, right. So we see so much arrogance here. Now, when it came to his looks, who gave him his looks?

02:34:47--> 02:34:58

Who gave him the intelligence to earn this money, who gave him the intelligence to save the money? Who gave him the intelligence to gain knowledge

02:35:00--> 02:35:03

Who gave him the ability? SubhanAllah.

02:35:06--> 02:35:07

All of this is from our last panel.

02:35:08--> 02:35:15

None of it was from himself. I'd say if we have anything who gets the credit?

02:35:18--> 02:35:33

Yeah, all of that. Strength, wealth, beauty. Yes. It's from a lost part of us or whatever we have around us, is because Allah Subhana, Allah allowed us to have it. None of it is from ourselves.

02:35:34--> 02:35:37

So if I have, let's say to PhDs.

02:35:39--> 02:35:47

So now who gave me the time, the ability, the money, this is all from Allah subhanaw taala.

02:35:49--> 02:35:55

So it's nothing is from nothing is for myself, if I have a lot of money,

02:35:56--> 02:36:03

who allowed me to earn that money? Who gave me the skill, the ability, the ideas? This is all from last part. All

02:36:06--> 02:36:12

right, so whatever we have around us, it's because Allah Subhana Allah allowed us to have it

02:36:14--> 02:36:16

is not from myself.

02:36:17--> 02:36:23

This is something for us to remember. So then if we understand this, then we become more grateful, don't we?

02:36:24--> 02:36:28

That Allah Spangler chose me to have this.

02:36:30--> 02:36:43

And then there's no room for arrogance. Because if someone doesn't have something, right, it's because Alice panthella chose for them not to have it.

02:36:45--> 02:36:54

It's not because I'm better that I got this. It's because this is my test. Right? I lost my deal. It gave me this to see how do I use it?

02:36:56--> 02:36:57

What do I

02:36:58--> 02:37:00

spend it on? What do I

02:37:01--> 02:37:04

benefit? Who do I benefit from it?

02:37:13--> 02:37:18

So analyze ourselves? Do I think like this, that whatever I have is my own doing?

02:37:21--> 02:37:25

Yes, very true. Like the story of the man of the two gardens.

02:37:28--> 02:37:31

Yes, you can give food for sadaqa and shuttler.

02:37:32--> 02:37:35

Okay, so something for us to each other.

02:37:36--> 02:38:06

Keep in mind while we look around and see all that Allah Subhana Allah has blessed us with that it is not ourselves, but it is from Allah subhanaw taala. So what does he do? He came out before his people in his adornment, those who desire the worldly life sector or woods that we had like what was given to a foreign Indeed, he is one of great fortune. Okay, so he came out with everything in front of the people. And what was the people's reaction?

02:38:13--> 02:38:19

They all were amazed by it, right? They said, we wish we had it to.

02:38:21--> 02:38:30

Something for us to analyze ourselves with here as well. How do we react when we see a really nice car? Or someone who has a really nice house?

02:38:32--> 02:38:37

or someone's business that's booming. Right? So how do we react in these times?

02:38:38--> 02:38:41

Yes, we need to praise the last pantalla.

02:38:42--> 02:39:00

But those who had been given knowledge, see the differences here knowledge, they said, Woe to you, the reward of Allah is better for he who believes and does righteousness, and none are granted except the patience. So is there a difference between those who have ilma Veen and those who don't?

02:39:02--> 02:39:16

Yes, definitely. Right. They know how to perceive things. They see the reality of the thing in front of them. They're not fooled by just the glitter of the dunya.

02:39:18--> 02:39:25

Yes, there's a huge difference. So if we want to be able to see reality, we have to gain knowledge of the D.

02:39:26--> 02:39:30

Right? So they said that this is all Subhanallah

02:39:31--> 02:39:49

going to be a waste if we don't use it for the orchestra. Alright, so they said the reward reward of Allah is better for who? The one who has email beliefs, just righteous deeds, but who can do this? What is the quality that we need to be able to

02:39:51--> 02:39:57

believe and do righteous deeds? Yes, we have to have server Alright, so what is server

02:39:58--> 02:39:59

holding myself?

02:40:00--> 02:40:03

Back from doing something wrong and

02:40:04--> 02:40:07

doing the right thing, even when it's difficult.

02:40:08--> 02:40:10

Yes, no complaining.

02:40:13--> 02:40:16

Yes, so it's a daily struggle, right?

02:40:17--> 02:40:21

And we cause the earth to swallow him and his home.

02:40:22--> 02:40:37

And there was for him no company to aid him other than Allah nor was he of those who could defend themselves. Subhana Allah so he had all this. He was so proud of it. Yet what was his end?

02:40:39--> 02:40:46

The Earth just opened up and took everything him and all his treasures upon them.

02:40:47--> 02:40:54

Yes, nothing could save him not his money, not his intelligence. Not the treasures.

02:40:56--> 02:40:58

Hey, not as good looks.

02:41:00--> 02:41:01

Nothing.

02:41:02--> 02:41:04

Yes, imagine some Pinilla.

02:41:05--> 02:41:09

For that, just imagine right now if the earth just opened up where you're sitting,

02:41:10--> 02:41:11

and you just sunk.

02:41:15--> 02:41:16

My last pantalla protect.

02:41:18--> 02:41:23

And so what's the reaction now of the people and those who had wished for his position the previous day?

02:41:25--> 02:41:44

They began to say, oh, how Allah extends provision to whom He wills of his servants and restricts it? If not that Allah had conferred favor on us he would have caused it to swallow us. Oh, have the disbelievers do not succeed. Alright, so now

02:41:45--> 02:41:49

everyone around him Yes, they realized

02:41:52--> 02:41:54

they realized his mistake

02:41:56--> 02:42:01

so this is a chance for us to despite a lot learn from other people's mistakes

02:42:02--> 02:42:06

Alright, so last part that I gave someone something temporary

02:42:08--> 02:42:09

and they took it

02:42:11--> 02:42:13

as if they had earned it themselves

02:42:16--> 02:42:19

Yes, a huge curse upon Allah

02:42:21--> 02:42:23

Yes, everything is temporary. So

02:42:24--> 02:42:28

yeah, the thing he was proud of became his distraction.

02:42:29--> 02:42:44

Yeah, why is are the ones who learn from others mistakes. So that home of the hereafter we assigned to those who do not desire exalted ness upon the earth or corruption and the best outcome is for the righteous

02:42:47--> 02:42:51

Yes, if we see someone with something ask Allah Subhana Allah for it as well.

02:42:55--> 02:43:11

Definitely so malice panda allow us to learn from other people's mistakes. Millis panda allow us to correct ourselves and may He allow us to understand the reality of this life and the reality of the ACA. Let

02:43:12--> 02:43:16

me Okay, so inshallah we will conclude here.
