The Day of Judgment is a time for learning to live life in writing and avoiding boredom, emphasizing the importance of setting goals and fixing times to avoid wasting time. The importance of testing actions and avoiding negative comments is emphasized, as it is crucial to not becoming a victim and dealing with challenges. The negative impact of religion on society, including allegedly "slack behavior" and fraud, is discussed, along with cultural differences between the Atlantic Sunbelt and the mountainous regions of the US.

			the status and paradise of those who read the Quran, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said
that on the Day of Judgment, the Quran will appear in the form of a lean human being. And it will
say, Do you recognize me? So the person will say No, I do not recognize you. The Quran will say I am
your companion, the one who kept you thirsty in the day, who kept you thirsty in the scorching heat
and awake in the night. Meaning even though it was so hot, you still recited the Quran, and you got
thirsty. And there were times when you were fasting and you were not able to drink water. But you
did that why in order to recite the Quran, and you stayed awake in the night again reciting the
		
00:01:22 --> 00:02:12

with any trader, I am here for you, meaning people go after what they love. So the Quran will be
with the person who spent time with the Quran, then he will be given kin, then he will be given
kingship in his right hand and eternity in his left hand, he will be made to wear the crown of
respect and dignity, his parents will be made to wear two silky robes that will be more precious
than the world and whatever that is in it. They will both ask, why have we been given this. So they
will be told because of your teaching your child the Quran, then the carrier of the Quran will be

Paradise and read slowly and beautifully as you did in the world for your final grade will be the
recitation of the last verse with you.
		
00:02:30 --> 00:03:10
			And this hadith shows us that the time that we spend with the Quran, we should really do it with
happiness end we should really recite the Quran, listen to it with happiness, because this is an
investment that we are making into ourselves. And this is something that we also need to teach our
children so that they don't get bored. And they and they actually feel encouraged for memorizing the
Quran or learning it's recitation, because all of us need that motivation. And one more thing that
we see in this hadith is that a person will be told on the day of judgment to recite slowly and
beautifully and this is something that we also need to pay attention to that especially when we are
		
00:03:10 --> 00:04:08
			reciting. Let us not rush to complete the page or to complete the sutra. Let us recite with beauty
and take as long as it needs. But don't rush in sha Allah. Just number 17 Bismillah al Rahman al
Rahim, sola till ambia it Katara Bella Nancy Hey Sabu, whom were whom feel of letting more Elune the
time of their account has approached for the people while they are in heedlessness turning away,
meaning the day of death, the day of judgment is drawing near, with every passing moment, it seems
far, but in fact, it is not. And there is hisab there is accounting, when we will be interrogated,
we will be asked about what we spent our lives doing, what kind of things we did. We see that every
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:59
			now and then, we are reminded of our mortality, but we soothe ourselves with worldly comforts,
distracting ourselves, but being distracted from a reality does not make it go away. The person who
realizes that this life is not forever, that there is hisab there is questioning after death, then
they're able to control their desires. They're able to turn towards Allah subhanaw taala in
repentance, and then they feel comfort in doing good things. They don't turn away. They turn to
words Allah soprano tada the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam warned us very clearly about the
newness of this day. He said, I do not belong to the world, nor does it belong to me. I was sent
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:45
			While the hour is racing with me Nesta vehicle, meaning both are as if trying to get ahead of each
other. This is how soon the Day of Judgment is going to occur. in another direction. He demonstrated
its nearness by joining his two fingers together, OBEY Him in Cabo de la hora and who said that when
a third of the night had passed, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam stood up and he said, Oh
people, remember Allah. remember Allah, the Raja convulsion is coming, followed by the LA diva, the
subsequent, the subsequent one and he was referring to the tremors, the earthquakes that will happen
at the Day of Judgment, death and what it brings is coming, death and what it brings is coming. So
		
00:05:45 --> 00:06:25
			wake up, get up and do something. Don't sleep in your heedlessness don't turn away in your
heedlessness. So remember, with each passing day, and with each passing night, our death is drawing
near. And the Day of Judgment is drawing near. The countdown has already begun. And with each day
worldly life is only getting shorter. So we are drawing closer to death than to life. And this is
why the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam warned us about how suddenly the Day of Judgment is
going to come. And he also said the agenda is near.
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:53
			He also said the agenda is nearer to you then your shoelace and so is the fire of *. So don't
think it's far more yet D him in victory Mila be him more death in elastomer Oh, who were whom you
and our boon. No mention comes to them a new from their Lord, except that they listen to it while
they are at play with their hearts distracted.
		
00:06:55 --> 00:07:40
			Lucha tan kulu boom with their hearts distracted, meaning they hear the Quran with distracted
hearts. They listen to the Quran, while they are completely inattentive, they're too busy having fun
to pay attention to the Quran. And when a person does this with the book of Allah, then they fail to
benefit from it. No matter how powerful those verses may be, they will not have an impact on the
heart of such a person who is distracted. Why? Because this person will fail to comprehend the
meaning of those verses, they will fail to comprehend the wisdom which is contained within those
verses, and then their heart is not going to move. And those who do wrong, conceal their private
		
00:07:40 --> 00:08:22
			conversation saying is this prophet except a human being like you? So would you approach magic while
you are aware of it? So we see this is how the people of Morocco would dismiss the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam by saying things like, Oh, he's only a human being. So are you really
going to follow him? And they would dismiss the impact of the Quran by calling it magic. So instead
of paying attention to its message, they would think of ways to to thwart its effect. So the
response of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. To such lies, to such rejection to such baseless
criticism, what should it be? The Prophet said, My Lord knows, whatever is said throughout the
		
00:08:22 --> 00:09:13
			heaven and earth, and he is assumere the hearing and Arlene, the knowing, but they say, the
revelation is but a mixture of false dreams, rather, he has invented it, rather he is a poet. So we
see that there was not a single any insult or accusation except that they smeared the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam with it, they said, so let him bring us a sign, just as the previous
messengers were sent with miracles. Alice Panthera says Mad Men at popular woman calm yet in Atlanta
her Fr. homeodomain, on Not a single city, which we destroyed, believed before them, so will they
believe meeting the previous nations received miracles? They did not believe so what makes them
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:57
			different now, and we sent not before you except men, to whom we revealed. So ask the people of the
message if you do not know. Meaning always Allah subhanaw taala has sent human beings as prophets.
So if people find that strange, they should look at an addict, the people of the previous
scriptures, meaning the Jews and the Christians look at their scripture, what do they say? Who were
the previous prophets were they human or something else? And in general also, we learned a very
important rule from this part of the ayah that asked the people have the message if you do not know.
Meaning that when you do not know about something, then find out don't settle with being ignorant
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:59
			with not knowing find out
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:45
			what the truth is find net find out what the answer is. Mmm as Julie said, that the bearer of the
Quran studies the Quran to discipline himself according to it, and he is not pleased with himself to
perform with ignorance, what Allah the mighty and majestic has obligated upon him, because he has
made knowledge and comprehension, his guide towards every goodness. So, a person who wants to live
by the code on then they will not settle with, you know, questions that are not answered, they will
find out. And sometimes Yes, we hesitate asking, we feel shy, that people will judge us that you
don't even know this much, but it is important to ask so that we can know. And we did not make the
		
00:10:45 --> 00:11:32
			profits forms, meaning the profits did not have such bodies not eating food, nor were they immortal
on Earth. They died and they left this world. Then we fulfilled for them the promise, and we save
them and whom we will and destroyed the transgressors, Lacan and zelner la con keytab and fee, the
crew comb FNS RP loan, we have certainly sent down to you a book in which is your mentioned that
will you not reason? Meaning, aren't you going to pay heed? Aren't you going to give some attention
to this book, which is about you fee the croco and fee, the colloquium. What this means is that the
Quran mentions you, meaning it talks about you, you are the subject of the Quran, so Aren't you
		
00:11:32 --> 00:12:17
			going to take any interest in it? So proper law, any if you find out that your name was mentioned in
a news article, you will take that clipping and save it for your great great, great grandchildren to
see. And the Quran talks about us. And we need to take interest in the Quran. The Quran, it mentions
Phoebe Cracow, meaning it mentions what is good in you, and what is bad in you, your strengths and
your weaknesses, the good things that you do and the mistakes that you make. So if you really want
to know yourself, if you really want to understand yourself, then you have to study the Quran.
Because the Quran is like a mirror. It helps you see yourself, it helps you understand yourself. And
		
00:12:17 --> 00:13:01
			then fee lukaku also means that it brings honor and glory to you if you follow it. And fee the
curriculum also means that it mentions details related to your religion, so that you can do what
Allah subhanaw taala has commanded you of if you don't know, then you will be living life in
ignorance. And it also mentions the things that you need to know on which your life and success
depends on silica and zelner la con ketevan fee be critical. And we see that in the time of the
companions, especially at the time afterwards that there were people who were previously slave and
because of the Quran, Allah subhanaw taala gave them so much dignity and honor. Romano de la Horne,
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:48
			who said that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that by this book, Allah will exalt some
people and degrade others. And how many a city which was unjust have we shattered and produced after
it another people? Now this surah is Sunil ambia, the suit of the profits. So we will see that a lot
of verses are related to profits, the tests that they faced the difficulties that they endured at
the hands of their people, and then how Allah subhanaw taala help them and how they responded to
their nations. And when its inhabitants perceived our punishment at once they fled from it. Some
angel said, Do not flee, but returned to where you were given luxury and to your homes. Perhaps you
		
00:13:48 --> 00:14:37
			will be questioned learn the country alone. They said Oh, woe to us. Indeed we were wrongdoers, any
of that time, they admitted, and this happens with so many people that all their lives people are in
heedlessness just pursuing desires. But then when death comes knocking at the door, at that time, a
person is filled with regrets in the corner. Lovely mean. And that declaration of theirs did not
cease until we made them as a harvest mowed down extinguished like a fire. Meaning there were like a
pile of ashes, not a degree of life remained in them. Women Hakuna sama, our auto Mama baina Humala,
a been and we did not create the heaven and earth and that between them in play, meaning this was
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:59
			not all aimless, for fun. No, this is all for a good reason. Had we intended to take a diversion,
meaning a game to amuse ourselves with we could have taken it from what is with us, meaning then we
would not have created you, if indeed we were to do so. Rather we dash we hurl the truth upon
falsehood ended.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:49
			destroys it, and thereupon it departs. And for you is destruction from that which you describe,
meaning once the truth comes, then falsehood cannot remain. To Him belongs, whoever is in the
heavens and the earth, and those near him are not prevented by arrogance from his worship, nor do
they tire. These are the angels who are near Allah. And how are they described, that they are not
prevented by arrogance from his worship, nor do they get tired, they don't get bored. And because of
their humility, what happens? You said, beehoon and Layla when the whole layer two rule, they exalt
Him night and day and do not slacken, meaning they don't even take a break. They don't get tired by
		
00:15:49 --> 00:16:35
			worshipping Allah subhanaw taala. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that the sky that
heaven creeks, and it has every right to Creek, because there is no place that could contain four
fingers in the heavens, except that there is an angel over there standing, making bluecore or making
such that to Allah, meaning it is worshiping Allah subhanaw taala. Constantly, whether it is night
or it is day, whether years have gone by, they're constantly worshiping Allah, and they don't slack
and they don't get it. They don't get bored. They don't stop any bees are angels. But what happens
to us we of course, we lose interest, we get distracted, we begin to yawn. And this is the etiquette
		
00:16:35 --> 00:17:16
			that we have been taught actually, that we recite the Quran, as long as your heart is in it. And
once you start to feel tired, any Don't, don't push yourself to recite the Quran in us in a state
where your heart is not interested. Because then you will begin to resent it, you will begin to
dislike it. And then your intention will not be that pure, your effort will not be that beautiful.
And that will affect your reward also. So at that time, take a break when you're too sleepy when
you're getting tired, take a break, freshen up, and then come back and then start again. So this is
us, right? us human beings, we have our limitations, our weaknesses, but it doesn't mean that we
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:56
			begin to feel very lazy now. And then every time we open the Koran, because we're not that
interested, we don't even try. We don't even exert any effort. No, we have to exert effort, we have
to push ourselves. And you know what, we have to set goals for ourselves on a regular basis. You
know, sometimes what happens is that we start making bacon and then someone comes in, starts talking
to us, you know, children, they interrupt us, and then we forget what we were saying. And then we
forget to complete our you know, of course. So it is very important that we set our goals and we fix
certain times. And then we also communicate with our children, that you know, Mama is doing her car
		
00:17:56 --> 00:18:43
			right now, just give me a few minutes, then I will talk to you. Right, so they should also know so
that we are able to complete our adkar or have men taken for themselves Gods from the earth who
resurrect the dead, had there been within the heavens and earth Gods besides Allah, they both would
have been ruined. So Exalted is Allah, Lord of the Throne, above what they describe, we see that
when there is anything over which multiple individuals have power over, then any we see how those
things, those places, those items, how they get ruined, they get destroyed. Why because each each
does whatever they please. And then there is conflict and because of that conflict, we see how
		
00:18:43 --> 00:19:34
			things places even children, at times they suffer. So the fact that the heavens and the earth are
any existing in such harmony, what does that prove that there is only one God? So Exalted is Allah,
Lord of the Throne above what they describe, Lao use Allah if you were home use alone, he is not
questioned about what he does, but they will be questioned. So remember, no one can ask Allah about
what he does. But he has the right to ask everyone about what they do. Allah subhanaw taala is not
to be questioned about what he decides regarding his creation. Rather, he has the right to ask his
creatures about what they do. So we should not be obsessed about you know, thinking all the time.
		
00:19:34 --> 00:20:00
			Why did God allow this? Why was this destined? And why did Allah commanded us to do this? We should
be concerned about the fact that we will be asked about what we are doing. We have to realize who we
are, and we have to realize who our Lord is. He is not questioned. He is the owner. He is an alim.
He is a Hakeem. He can do whatever he wants, and who are we we are
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:45
			Look, we are owned by him, and he is the one who has commanded us. So there is no equality over
here. So we should remember our place, or have they taken God's besides Him, say, produce your
proof. This Quran is the message for those with me. And the message of those before me meeting the
previous nations were also given scriptures, but most of them do not know the truth. So they're
turning away, and we send them out before you any messenger except that we reveal to him that there
is no day to accept me. So worship me this was the message in every scripture brought by every
messenger, and they say, the Most Merciful has taken a son, Exalted is He rather they are but
		
00:20:45 --> 00:21:11
			honored servants, they cannot proceed him in Word, and they act by his command, he knows what is
presently before them, and what will be after them. And they cannot intercede except on behalf of
one whom he approves. And they from fear of him are apprehensive. This is the state of Allah
servants, that they are afraid of Allah, they're apprehensive.
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:52
			So, a lot of times, you know, people will come up with things regarding the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wasallam, for example, that he will intercede, and he will say whatever he wants, and he will
fight for his oma. And then Allah will not be able to say anything to him anyway, it's a stop at
Allah. It's difficult to even listen to such songs of poetry and praise for the prophets of Allah
who were to send them, even if you know, you know, in poetry, yes, it's, it's understandable that
things are not always realistic, but we have to be truthful. We cannot go on raising the status of
the prophets of Allah who are to send them and the servants of Allah over Allah zildjian ne remember
		
00:21:52 --> 00:22:43
			the place of the creation, that it is that the creation is below the Creator. So they from fear of
him are apprehensive, and whoever of them should say indeed I am a god besides Him, meaning even if
a righteous servant of Allah says that, that one we would recompense with *. Thus do We
recompense the wrongdoers have those who disbelieved, not considered that the heavens and the earth
were a joint entity, they were together, they were one one thing, meaning it was a state of
singularity, and we separated them and made from from water every living thing, then will they not
believe? So two very important facts are mentioned over here. That how the skies and the earth were
		
00:22:43 --> 00:23:27
			joined entity. And a lot of what exactly this means garble about said that Alice puntata, separated
the sky and the earth by admitting air between the two space between the two, it came I said that
the sky was closed, the earth was closed, so no water rained and no plant group. And today, there is
a big bang theory, any allowable arm, but the fact is, that the sky and the earth did not exist as
they exist today. Allah is the one who brought them into existence. And all of this variety of
creation that we see did not exist before. Allah is the one who brought every living thing alive
from water, and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said kulu Shea in Holyoke on a map,
		
00:23:28 --> 00:24:03
			everything was created from water meaning every living thing was created from water. So now you know
will they not believe so? Allah subhanaw taala is the one who created us any then what are we
supposed to do? This life is not for plain amusement. All of this has a purpose and we are supposed
to be spending this time in servitude to Allah soprano Tada. So what is it that we are doing and we
placed within the earth firmly said mountains less than it should shift with them and we made
they're in mountains passes.
		
00:24:04 --> 00:24:51
			And we made they're in mountain passes as roads that they might be guided meaning natural roadways,
highways through the mountains so that people can find their way and travel from place to place and
we made the sky a protected ceiling, but they from its signs are turning away while home or at home
or at a loon and this shows us how important it is for us to pay attention to both types of Iet
remember there are two types of IR is shutter iya meaning versus that Allah soprano tada has
revealed the code on that deserves our attention. And then I add konia the signs that Allah subhanaw
taala has placed within the creation for us to observe to listen to to understand to pay attention
		
00:24:51 --> 00:24:59
			to. So both of these deserve our attention. So we must learn about them, study them, reflect them.
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:42
			reflect upon them. And if it's done with the right intention, then this is also a bother. Sometimes
what happens is that if a person is studying, for example, at school, you know, they begin to think
that it's a waste of my time. This is not a waste of time, when it's done with the right intention,
when you do it with the intention that I am studying Allah's creation. And it is he who created the
night and the day, and the sun and the moon, all heavenly bodies in an orbit are swimming. And we
did not grant to any man before you eternity, meaning on Earth. So if you die, would they be
eternal. So we see here that even prophets had to leave the world who said to the Prophet
		
00:25:42 --> 00:26:27
			sallallahu, alayhi wasallam, that live however long you want, you will indeed die, love whomever,
whomever you want, you will eventually leave him. So the fact is that there is no permanence in this
world, there is no together forever in this life. And there is only eternity were in the home of the
hereafter in general. So the people of Makkah, you know, they would say about the prophets of Allah
who were to send them that just wait for him to die, you know, very soon he is going to die in this
new religion that he's come up with is going to come to an end. So it is said efa emit for Mohali
dunes, if you die, would they be eternal. So don't wish for people to die because even if they die
		
00:26:27 --> 00:27:18
			in a year, you're not living in this world forever. Every knifes every soul will taste death, and we
test you with evil and with good as trial and to us you will be returned. So we see over here that
death is certain for every nups every human. And in this life, Allah subhanaw taala tests us with
what when evil and with good and evil and good both are a trial. And after this, we have to return
to Allah subhanaw taala. So things don't happen at random in this life. And we see that there is an
either all ears in this life nor hardship, there is a blend of both. And they come You know, ease
and hardship, you know, they come and leave just like seasons do. Why? Why is it that things are
		
00:27:18 --> 00:28:00
			always changing, so that the patient and the Grateful are set apart from the rest. So that we are
tested through things that we like, and also things that we don't like, so that we remember that
good things in this life are not going to last forever. This life is not everything. There is
something better that awaits us, because you see when we go through some difficulties and pain in
life. Any What does it do? It ruins worldly pleasure, right? It ruins worldly pleasure. And then
that allows you to think about the home of the hereafter. And then you're like, Okay, you know,
you're you're more inclined to, you know, performing more righteous deeds, you're more inclined to
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:43
			giving sadaqa that same money that you were so attached to before, because you went through
hardship. Now you're so eagerly You know, you're willing to spend it in good causes. And when those
who disbelieve see you they take him not except in ridicule, saying is this the one who insults your
gods, and they are at the mention of the Most Merciful disbelievers. Subhan Allah, you see the
people of makup they loved their idols, they had way too much respect for their idols. So if the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that La Ilaha in the law, there is no god worthy of worship
except for Allah, they would take that statement as an insult, that this is an insult to our gods.
		
00:28:43 --> 00:29:29
			However, when Allah subhanaw taala was described as a Russian man, the Entirely Merciful, the
extremely merciful, they would reject that. So it is mentioned over here that they have so much
tolerance for multiple Gods but when it comes to the beautiful descriptions of Allah subhanaw taala
they cannot tolerate that. They cannot accept that. And this is the reason why when Bismillah R
Rahman Rahim was written in Saudi Arabia in the treaty, any they had that removed, because they
wouldn't accept it? Holy cow, insane woman, Nigerian man was created of haste. And this is the
reason why as human beings, we get anxious, we get impatient and worried. We fret and fear we panic
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:59
			and worry, you know, we regret and we grieve. And because of all of this, we fail to exist in the
present. You see, because of our hastiness, we either dwell in our past or in our future, because
any we're always thinking about what happened before it might happen again. And so because it might
happen again, I have to, you know, that fear causes us to become extremely anxious.
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:08
			So it is said here, I will show you my signs, so do not impatiently urge me. So we see that even
though we are naturally
		
00:30:10 --> 00:31:00
			predisposed towards being anxious and hasty, we're still able to manage and control this hastiness
because if it was not possible, then Allah subhanaw taala would not have commanded us, let the
strategy alone, do not impatiently urge me. So how is it that we can manage this urge Allah, this
hastiness that we, that we learn to folk, we practice focusing on the present than now that we take
things one day at a time, because if we keep thinking about everything that happened in the past,
and then everything that might happen in the future, and he we would get overwhelmed, and that would
really cause us to panic. So, take it one day at a time, one task at a time, bring yourself back to
		
00:31:00 --> 00:31:23
			the moment, bring yourself back to the task at hand. And you see when we become anxious, that is
when we become hasty, right? We make quick decisions, which are sometimes detrimental, and we regret
later on. So be more mindful of the present practice mindfulness, so od comm iottie falletta
strategy Loon.
		
00:31:24 --> 00:32:08
			And we see that calmness which is the opposite of urgent, any This is also in our federal meaning.
This is also something that Allah subhanaw taala has created as upon any we're not only predisposed
to being hasty and impatient and anxious, we also have the capacity to be calm. So we learned the
Hadees that once a certain delegation came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and as soon
as they arrived, everybody, you know, as they were, they just jumped to be with the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam and to begin kissing his hands, and you know, embracing him, etc. And
then finally, one of the men he came, because he came later, because first he went to his luggage,
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:47
			he changed his clothes because they had just arrived after a journey. He changed his clothes, he
washed up, and then he came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam, and he met him and the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam said to him, that, that you have two qualities that Allah
subhanaw taala likes, gentleness and deliberation. So he asked, Have I acquired them or has Alas,
penetrative created them in my nature? The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, No, Allah has
created them in you. So he said, Alhamdulillah that Allah has created these abilities in me or these
characteristics in me. So yes, some people they are no more calm. And other people have to make
		
00:32:47 --> 00:33:36
			themselves calm, right? But they are able to it is possible to calm you know, to keep yourself calm
in the face of, you know, anxiety or in the face of challenges. And it is important that we don't
allow our hastiness to drive us to lead us because then we will suffer. Where colonna Mata hadn't
worked in kuntum saw the pain, and they say, when is this promise if you should be truthful, if
those who disbelieved but knew the time, when they will not avert the fire from their faces or from
their backs, and they will not be aided. Rather, it will come to them unexpectedly and bewilder
them, and they will not be able to repel it, nor will they be reprieved. And already were messengers
		
00:33:36 --> 00:34:20
			ridiculed before you, but those who mock them were enveloped by what they used to ridicule, say, who
can protect you at night, or by day from the Most Merciful, but they are from the remembrance of
their Lord, turning away. Notice how the night is mentioned before the day who can protect you at
night, or by day? Why is the night mentioned first because if you think about it, night is the
default, right? There's darkness and light is because of the sun, because of the rising of the sun.
So, night is the default and then the day comes and leaves. And then also in the context if you
think about it, the night is more scarier than the day we are more vulnerable in darkness than we
		
00:34:20 --> 00:35:00
			are in in light. So it is Allah subhanaw taala he protects us in darkness when we are unable to see
what dangers are are ahead of us. Or do they have gods to defend them other than us, they are unable
even to help themselves, nor can they be protected from us. But on the contrary, we have provided
good things for these and their fathers until life was prolonged for them. Because typically what
happens is that when people get wealth and you know and good things in this life, generation after
generation, then they stop worrying about their deeds, about their beat about their actions because
they don't
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:45
			need to worry about anything. So they feel that they're good times will never end. And they're very
satisfied with their circumstances. So they're not concerned anymore about pleasing Allah subhanaw
taala. So when people experience blessings for a long time, then what happens is that majority of
the people, they get deceived, whereas in reality, it is a test, then do they not see that we set
upon the land reducing it from its borders, so it is they who will overcome. And at the time of the
Prophet sallallahu, alayhi wasallam, it happened with the machine that, that politically, any
overtime, they were losing their freedom. So don't they see that they're losing control of the land,
		
00:35:46 --> 00:36:28
			say, I only warn you by revelation, but the deaf do not hear the call when they're warned. And if as
much as a whiff of the punishment of your large touch them, they would surely say, Oh, woe to us.
Indeed, we have been wrongdoers, and we placed the scales of justice for the Day of Resurrection,
meaning on the Day of Judgment, Allah subhanaw taala will set up the scale in which our deeds will
be weighed. And this is something that we have to believe and this is part of our faith, this is
part of a man will after all, so, no soul will be treated unjustly at all, why? because well wasn't
new yoma eternal Hulk, and if there is even the weight of a mustard seed, we will bring it forth,
		
00:36:28 --> 00:37:15
			because that scale is very sensitive, it is very just It is very sale, it is very, it is very fair.
So, if there is something that is equal to the weight of a mustard seed, even that will be brought
and sufficient are we as accountant. So the scale is basically a formality of us. primadonna is not
in need of it. He is just without even using the scale. But the scale, the wasn't will be used on
the Day of Judgment, to establish justice, to prove to people that no injustice has been done to
you. And this is the reason why we have to pay attention to the little things as well. Earlier I had
mentioned to you how La ilaha illAllah Allahu Akbar subhana wa Alhamdulillah These are words which
		
00:37:15 --> 00:37:55
			are having in the scale, the vicar of Allah, which we don't really pay much attention to, is very
heavy in the scale. So we have to make sure that during the day during the night, we you know, we
keep our tongue busy with the vicar of Allah, that our tongue should not just be busy talking to
people, and especially now that everybody's home, all of our time and our energy should not just go
in just talking to each other. Yes, there's there should be time talking to one another, but there
should also be time spent in making Likud remembering Allah subhanaw taala because these words will
be very, very heavy in the scale. And then it is said that there will be no judge no injustice at
		
00:37:55 --> 00:38:39
			all, no injustice whatsoever. So, we learned that on the Day of Judgment, a person will be brought
and his records which will be in the form of 99 registers, they will be placed on one side of the
scale and these records will be so huge and they will be filled with deeds and this person any he
will be asked to do deny any of this meaning any of the sins that are mentioned over here that are
recorded in these books. Do you deny any of that? And he will say no, he will be asked did my angels
wrong you were they unfair to you? Did they write something that you did not do? No. Do you have any
excuse no you I don't have any excuse. So the person will think that I am me I'm done because all of
		
00:38:39 --> 00:39:32
			my deeds are being weighed against me. And then a card is small card will be placed on the other
side of the scale and that card will have on it a shadow Allah ilaha illAllah or unknown Mohammed
Abu who will assume and because of that card, the scale will tip soprano love the scale will tip
meaning this is the value the weight of the Kadima La Ilaha Illa law to believe is not something
small, what are called Athena musawah hold on and full con and we had already given more sun, how
long the criteria and the total which was a light and a reminder for the righteous, who fear their
Lord and seen while they are of the hour apprehensive and this put on is a blessing message vicon
		
00:39:32 --> 00:40:00
			Mobile rakuen which we have sent down then are you with it unacquainted really are you unfamiliar
with the book of Allah, this book which is mobarak, which is full of Baraka and remember Baraka is
increased and permanence and the growth. So, this book is not like any other book. Its benefit is
endless. It is ever increasing. You see in different times in different places. People have
benefited from the Quran in so many different
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:40
			ways they have benefited spiritually materially from you know, financially in their, in their ibadah
in their relationship with Allah subhanaw taala in their lives in their families, because of this
Koran. So antem lumen Kiran, are you going to turn away from this? Are you going to remain
unacquainted and unfamiliar with the book of Allah? So don't Don't be like that don't deprive
yourself, take it happily, lovingly, and increase in your blessings by spending more time with the
book of Allah. And we had certainly given Ibrahim his sound judgment before. And we were off him
well knowing when he said to his father and his people, what are the statues to which you are
		
00:40:40 --> 00:41:21
			devoted? They said, We found our fathers worshipping worshipers of them. And we see that when it
comes to idolatry, this is really the only proof that people have that it is tradition. He said, You
were certainly you and your father's in manifest error. They said, Have you come to us with the
truth? Or are you of those who just he said no, rather your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the
earth, who created them, and I to that am of those who testify. So I'm not joking around over here.
I'm serious. And I swear by Allah, I will show the plan against your idols after you have turned and
gone away. So he made them into fragments except a large one among them, that they might return to
		
00:41:21 --> 00:42:06
			it. They said, who has done this to our gods, indeed, he is of the wrongdoers. They said we heard a
young man mentioned them who is called Ibrahim, they said then bring him before the eyes of the
people that they may testify. They said, Have you done this to our gods or Ibrahim? He said rather
this the largest of them did it so ask them if they should be able to speak? So he did this, at the
meeting, he broke their idols, this was a very drastic measure, but he did this to make them
realize, to make them understand, so that they would think and then when he said that ask them
meaning the idols who broke them, perhaps it was the largest of them any ask ask them if they can
		
00:42:06 --> 00:42:50
			speak they will be able to tell you so they returned to blaming themselves and set to each other.
Indeed you are the wrongdoers you are at fault. Ibrahim is right, these idols neither speak nor are
they able to defend themselves. So they got it, they understood what it is and I was showing them
but then they reverse themselves saying you have already known that these do not speak they admitted
the inability of their idols to speak he said then do you worship instead of Allah that which does
not benefit you at all nor harm you off to you and to what you worship instead of Allah? What are
you doing? Now? Will you not use reason? They said burn him and support your gods. If you are to act
		
00:42:51 --> 00:43:41
			cola Yeah. nanocone bottle then what's an M and Allah Ibrahim? Allah said, All fire be coolness and
safety upon Ibrahim Subhana Allah. They refuse to accept the truth even after seeing it even after
admitting in their hearts. They refuse to accept it. And then what did they do? They decided to burn
Ibrahim or a sinner just finish him completely kill him alive. And they plotted. They built a huge
fire. But their plot to remember was still in Allah soprano TARDIS control. Remember, if the fire
burns, it burns by the law of Allah by the permission of Allah and Allah subhanaw taala can change
that any moment anytime, for whoever that he wants. This is why he said Bowden was Salomon, Allah
		
00:43:41 --> 00:44:15
			Ibrahim be coolness and senem meaning the coolness and safety because cold can freeze right and that
can also be detrimental. It can it can cause any, it can literally kill a person, frostbite, etc. It
can kill a person. So the fire was not just called it was also security. It was also safety. And
then either Ibrahim it was only for Ibrahim or his son and not for the rest of the people. Otherwise
the nature of fire would be changed until the day of judgment.
		
00:44:16 --> 00:44:33
			Without Adobe he Caden and they intended for him harm, but we made them the greatest losers. And we
delivered him and loop to the land which we had blessed for the world's unlucky Baraka fee her and
this is the land of beta marked as Jerusalem
		
00:44:34 --> 00:44:59
			and we gave him his help and your coop In addition, and all of them we made righteous, Allah
subhanaw taala blessed Ibrahim and he sent him with his help or the his center. Meaning is how can I
send him his son? And then jacoba nephew Nathan, your coop and addition? Who was your Cobra Sam his
grandson, meaning Allah subhanaw taala gave him more than he had asked for. He didn't pray for
grandson. He prayed for a son.
		
00:45:00 --> 00:45:43
			And the last prime target gave him a son and a grandson. This is Allah subhanaw taala his
generosity, Ibrahim and I said ma da will be heavily meaner Saudi hate that, Oh my Lord grant me
among those who are righteous meaning grant me righteous, good children. And Allah subhanaw taala
gave him sons and grandsons, any what a blessing. This is how Allah is you, you take one step Allah
will give you even more than what you imagined. And we made them leaders, guided by our command, and
we inspire to them the doing of good deeds, establishment of prayer, and giving of Zakat, and they
were worshippers of us. So we see that among his children, there were many righteous worshipers and
		
00:45:43 --> 00:46:33
			to loot, we gave judgment and knowledge and we and we saved him from the city that was committing
wicked deeds. Indeed, they were people of evil, defiantly disobedient, and we admitted him into our
mercy. Indeed, he was of the righteous Lutheranism was solid and his nation his people they use to
terminal haba is they used to commit wicked deeds, what a contrast when you hand and mentioned when
he called to Allah before that time, so we responded to him and saved him and his family from the
great distress mean and accountability alim. And what was this COVID Aleem that know how to use Sam
was faced with this is of course referring to the long time that he spent calling people to the
		
00:46:33 --> 00:47:20
			worship of Allah subhanaw taala only. And remember, when people reject you, not just once or twice,
but over and over again, and their rejection turns into hostility and mockery. And then abandonment,
any, it's very hurtful, it turns into unconditional leave. And the longer it trial is, the more
difficult it feels. So it was a great distress. But Allah subhanaw taala relieved him from that
electronic data saved him from that. And it has said that on COVID, Arlene can also refer to the
flood, the drowning, because that certainly is very, very distressful. And we saved him from the
people who denied our signs. Indeed, they were a people of evil. So we drowned them all together,
		
00:47:21 --> 00:48:06
			and mentioned that wood and Sulaiman when they judged concerning the field, what was this incident,
this was when the sheep of a people overran it at night. So it is said that there were two
neighbors, one was a shepherd, and the other was a farmer. So in the nighttime, the sheep of the
shepherd ran into the field of the farmer. And you can imagine if sheep have, you know, if they've
become loose in, in, in a, in a farm in a garden, what's going to happen to it, so they completely
destroyed it. So what happened, these two people came for justice to that would sit down, and we
were witness to their judgment, and we gave understanding of the case to slay man it is sent out,
		
00:48:07 --> 00:48:50
			though there is no rule that the owner of the field, the farmer should keep the sheep. Okay. And so
the man already said, I'm sad that no the owner of the field should be given the sheep to benefit
from until the shepherd tends to the field and restores it, and once the field that the farm has
been restored, then the flock should be returned to him, and each owner should take back his
property, what a beautiful decision. So, so, they matter and I sent him he was given understanding
of this case, and sometimes it happens that you know, you are, you know, you face such questions or
such situations, which are very difficult to comprehend, you don't understand how to solve that
		
00:48:50 --> 00:49:33
			issue. And then you talk to different people, you know, you you take their suggestions, and you make
da and then eventually and 100 Allah, you come to a good decision. So remember, good for him, good
understanding of a matter. This is from Allah subhanaw taala. Because it has said for for him now
has today man, we gave understanding to Philemon earliest. So whenever you're struggling to
understand something, ask Allah subhanaw taala that he will fahima soon a manner for him me that Oh
Allah, you gave comprehension today, man, you give me comprehension as well. You give me good good
decision and good judgment as well. And then it is said, well, Colin attina hookman where Elmer and
		
00:49:33 --> 00:50:00
			to each of them. We gave judgment and knowledge. And we subjected the mountains to exalt us along
with Deadwood and also the birds. And we were doing that. So we see here that even though Sulaiman
Ernie Salaam was the son, he was younger, and he Allah subhanaw taala gave him understanding in that
situation. So sometimes it is possible that people who are younger than you are able to suggest what
is better people who may have less life experience than you less knowledge
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:19
			than you. And you might just not pay any attention to them, but it is worth listening to them.
Because you never know, Allah subhanaw taala could have given them understanding of that point. So
don't dismiss people just because they're younger, they know less, or they speak a different
language. They don't do what you do, but rather be open,
		
00:50:20 --> 00:50:21
			learn from
		
00:50:23 --> 00:51:09
			learn from those who are around you listen to what people have to say. And then we see that though
there is Sam, even though his understanding at this time was not the best, he is not condemned here.
He's not condemned over here. Why? Because when a judge makes a judgement based on his knowledge and
best ability, he is still rewarded, even if that judgment even if that ruling ended up to be wrong,
but he is still rewarded for his sincerity and his effort. But if a person makes the right decision,
the conclusion is good. Then remember there is double reward, double reward. And if a person is
lazy, and with ignorance, they make a wrong ruling that they give a wrong ruling, then for that, of
		
00:51:09 --> 00:51:51
			course, is sin. So we have to be very, very careful. And we taught him the fashioning of coats of
armor, to protect you from your enemy in battle for * until Shakeel alone, so will you then be
grateful? So we see that the prophets of Allah, especially though they're the same was mentioned
over here, they weren't just given scripture and religious knowledge. There were also given worldly
skills, which we benefit from till today. And then it is said that anthem Shakira, will you be
grateful? Meaning, aren't you going to use the blessings that Allah subhanaw taala has given you in
obedience to Allah, because that is sugar. And to slay man, we subjected the wind blowing forcefully
		
00:51:51 --> 00:52:35
			soprano law that were there his son was given mastery over iron. So iron was very soft for him, it
was very pliable for him, he could mold it however he wanted. And so a man or a sudden wind was
subjected for him. So one was given something solid and the other was given air. Amazing. And we see
that wind can be very destructive, and it can also be very productive. So wind was in his control,
proceeding by his command toward the land which we have blessed and we are ever of all things
knowing, and of the devils were those who died for him and did work other than that, and we were of
them a guardian soprano Allah, Allah subhanaw taala had given him control over the jinn also.
		
00:52:36 --> 00:53:01
			And mentioned a tube when he called to his Lord and Nima Sania boo, what under Hello, rahimian,
indeed, adversity has touched me and you are the Most Merciful of the Merciful festa jibon, Allahu
Fattah, Chef nama became in blue, so we responded to him and removed what afflicted him of
adversity, a local club,
		
00:53:03 --> 00:53:47
			we see that every every person, you know, they suffer from some kind of adversity, some kind of
personal adversity, which they experience either in their body, in their children, in their family
situation, in their circumstances. hynny. And some conditions are such that a person is not evil, is
not even able to diagnose it. And you go to doctor after doctor and they don't even know what's
going on with you. And even if they know what is going on with you, they're not in a in a position
to help you, because they don't know how to treat your condition. Or because circumstances don't
allow. So any boom, when it touches you, then you call upon Allah subhanaw taala like you've already
		
00:53:47 --> 00:54:31
			surrounded. And you see a huge array of synapse adversity have prolonged for a very, very long time,
it is said that he was he was suffering for 18 years. And when we are suffering from a pain from it
for a very long time, then that that duration adds even more pain to the pain that exists. You know,
what is the pain which is in your body? Then there is the pain that you don't know what's happening.
And then there is the pain that you know it's been going on for so long. When is this going to end?
So look at what you've already said. I'm said and Nima 70 of the room. were under our hammer
rahimian and look at the word mess any you see must is what it's just a touch. It's just a touch a
		
00:54:31 --> 00:54:59
			human he said I was suffering in his body, in his family, in his money in his wealth, any in every
aspect of his life he was suffering yet he called all of that suffering what just a must just take
touch any it's all about perspective, right? That has a last panel title only given you difficulty
or with that difficulty has also given you something else. So we need to remember that we should not
		
00:55:00 --> 00:55:46
			blow things out of proportion, we have a headache, and we pretend like we are going to die, any
Subhanallah we're fasting, and we think like, we cannot do anything else. So keep things you know,
see things in their proper size, don't blow things out of proportion. And always remember that in
the morongo city you saw in numerosity, you saw with difficulties ease with the same difficulties
and other ease. So yes, there is though, but there is also a blessing that Allah has given and
whatever it is that you focus on, is what will grow. So look at how he describes his condition that
adversity has just touched me it has not overtaken me, it has not destroyed me, it has not
		
00:55:46 --> 00:56:34
			overwhelmed me, because Allah you have also blessed me with so much any you can see the patients
here. And the gratitude over here. What a hammer la Haney and look at how he's calling upon a law
that Yeah, Allah, you are the Most Merciful of those who showed mercy. So we responded to him. And
we removed what afflicted him of adversity. It had been so long, 18 years and Allah subhanaw taala
removed all of that. And we give him back his family and the like they're off with them as Mercy
from Us. And a reminder for the worshipers of Allah when they crawl, Leila RBD what is the lesson
that Allah subhanaw taala tests His servants, however, that he wants to use alarm if I do? Well,
		
00:56:34 --> 00:57:19
			when we use alone, Allah is not questioned about what he does when he decides we are going to be
questioned about what we do how we respond. So the first lesson is that it is up to Allah, it is his
decision, it is His will, to test his servants, however, that he wants. And then when we are going
through some difficulty, it is important that we must not hate ourselves, nor should we judge people
who are going through difficulty, because you see a YouTuber, and he said, he was a prophet of
Allah. He was an avid, he was a worshipper. He was a good servant, a modeled servant, yet Allah
subhanaw taala tested him. So sometimes what happens is that when a person is going through trial,
		
00:57:19 --> 00:58:05
			they think that you know what, I must be very, very evil. I must be very, very bad. So God hates me.
Or people wonder why does God hate me? Because in general, anyone we are going through some
difficulty. We do think that this is because of our sins. And this is something that we have been
taught. But it is it is true that trials affect us because of our sins. But those who worship aladar
are the dean. And remember, for them, trials are not a punishment. trials are only a means of
purification and growth and increase in reward and further submission to Allah, which raises them
even higher in the sight of Allah soprano. Tada. So no matter what you're going through, don't hate
		
00:58:05 --> 00:58:52
			yourself. And don't let anyone tell you that God hates you. No, this is an opportunity for you to
focus on your ibadah be like a you've already set up be an AA bid, and you will see how the trial
the difficulty will be in your favor, not against you. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said,
My unity law will be higher on usuba main who whoever Allah wishes good for he puts him to trial. In
another Hadees we learned that when Allah loves a people, he tests them, so whoever is patient, then
he will have patience, and whoever is impatient, then that is what he will have, meaning he will
grow in whatever he responds with. So always respond with subject and focus on everybody. And then
		
00:58:52 --> 00:59:36
			you will see that the trial will not be a punishment for you, it will be a purification of growth, a
means of increase for you in sha Allah, and mentioned is Mary and Idris, and will kiefel. All were
of the patient could not mean a submarine. You see, this is sort of MBR and we learned that the
people who are tested the most severely were who the prophets of Allah, and then the next best, and
then the next best, so people are tested in proportion to the level of their faith. So we see how
the prophets are described as savini. Those who are patient, what does that mean? That they endured
hardship, they face trials, and through those trials, they were patient, and we admitted them into
		
00:59:36 --> 01:00:00
			our mercy or other Hala home field mattina. So you see, after difficulty, any when a person is in
difficulty in a trial and their patient, then then what comes next Allahumma Allah's mercy which
Allah subhana wa tada blesses His servants with in this life, but of course, the greatest Mercy is
reserved for the hereafter. What are the
		
01:00:00 --> 01:00:43
			Hello homefield, Raj mattina, in the Home Ministry, he indeed they were of the righteous. And this
is what we need to focus on that whether things are easy or they're tough. We have to focus on being
amongst solid servants of Allah. Even if when big mistakes happen, and mentioned the man of the fish
unit and he sent out when he went off in anger, and sometimes this happens and he we get frustrated
with our our situation. But that frustration is not going to help us units. Our listener got
frustrated, he went off in anger, and thought that we would not decree anything upon him. He didn't
think that Allah would disapprove of this. And he called out within the darkness, meaning he was
		
01:00:43 --> 01:01:35
			trapped in the darkness of the fish of the sea of the night. There was no ray of light and he called
out to Allah soprano tada and La ilaha illa Anta subhanak in the colon terminal Bali mean that there
is no daily except to you. exalted, are you? Oh Allah. Indeed. I have been of the wrongdoers. So
Yunus earlier set out, admitted his mistake. And he called upon Allah, He declared the perfection of
Allah. And what happened? festa Giblin Allah who so we responded to him alonside Hammad, so when
Ajay now humming along, and we saved him from distress, from worry from sadness worker that he can
deal with meaning and thus do We save the believers. Remember, Allah saves the believers, any when
		
01:01:35 --> 01:02:17
			we are put in a test, it is not to destroy us. And when we are in a trial, it is not that we have
been left to fend for ourselves, know Allah rescues his believing servants. So if we want a lot to
rescue us, that we have to call upon Him, we have to seek his help. And there's so many beautiful
lessons that we can learn from the prophets of Allah. So we see here the example of units or the
SNM, where he made a mistake. And the predicament that he found himself in was a result of his own
wrongdoing, any his own his own mistake. And sometimes this happens when we are going through a
certain hardship and we reflect on ourselves and realize perhaps this is a result of my own
		
01:02:18 --> 01:03:01
			injustice. Perhaps I am the reason why I am suffering from this. I have no one else to blame except
myself. And even in that condition, you know what, you are still worthy. Even if you have every
reason to blame yourself to condemn yourself you are still worthy. You are still able to call upon
Allah subhanaw taala when you have no one to blame but yourself. You can still call upon Allah like
Yunus earlier sit down and look at what happened when Ajay now humming along. Allah saved him from
distress worker that he can only move meaning this is for all believers, not just for UNICEF at his
center. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, should I not tell you about something which of
		
01:03:01 --> 01:03:49
			a person says when stricken with distress or trial from the trials of this world and praise to
Allah? Allah will remove it from him. It was said yes. And he said the door of the noon this neuron
in another Hadees we learned the supplication off the noon. Many of us already set up when he
supplicated while in the belly of the whale was La Ilaha. illa Anta soprano aka indicando me nobody
mean So indeed, no Muslim men supplicates with it for anything ever, except that Allah responds to
him. So when you find yourself in hum, any kind of hum any kind of worry, distress, sadness, call
upon Allah with these words, La ilaha illa Anta super Hanukkah in me come to mean a wildly mean, and
		
01:03:49 --> 01:04:03
			the love will rescue you. Just as he rescued his servant, Yunus already, he said, Now look at the
trial of zirconia his setup was a Korea and mentions a Korea when he called to his Lord, my Lord, do
not leave me alone.
		
01:04:04 --> 01:04:48
			Have a look but he had no child. He said Yoda Don't leave me alone. While you are the best of
inheritors any Yes, cool luminol a a fun way of power Judo because originally was a club, but as
human beings, we we need that connection. We need that personal connection. We need those people we
can call our own. You know, like the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said to about Fatima de la
Marne had the cheese of me. You know, she she is she is a biller to many, she is a part of me. We
need that as human beings. So as a career as Sam said, your job Don't leave me alone. While you are
the best of inheritors. I accepted it whenever you decide to accept it, but this is also my wish. So
		
01:04:48 --> 01:04:59
			we responded to him. And we gave to him yeah here and amended for him his wife. Indeed, they used to
hasten to good deeds. This drove hard
		
01:05:00 --> 01:05:08
			worshiping Allah, and they would supplicate us in hope and fear. And they were to us humbly
submissive,
		
01:05:09 --> 01:05:41
			and mentioned the one who guarded her chastity. So this shows us that if we want our daughters to be
accepted, then we have to do the same thing that we have to have hope, we have to have fear of a
love fear of love means that we refrain from anything that Allah subhanaw taala does not approve of.
So we should take a look at our lives and see, is there anything Halong that I am doing, which has
become a reason for me being deprived of the risk of good provision, and then also excel in doing
good deeds? You said your own official hire,
		
01:05:42 --> 01:06:28
			and mentioned the one who guarded her chest to tea, this was muddy, um, so we blew into her garment,
through our Angel debris, and we made her and her son is signed for the world's Indeed, this your
religion is one religion, and I am your Lord. So worship Me, all of the prophets had the same
religion, what religion of worshipping only Allah, and I am your rub rub of all of you, so worship
only Allah. So we see that all of the prophets faced a different kind of tribulation, a different
shade of trial and test in this life. And look at how Allah subhanaw taala brought them relief, and
yet, they divided their affair among themselves, but all to us will return. So whoever does
		
01:06:28 --> 01:07:11
			righteous deeds, while he is a believer, no denial will there be for his effort, and indeed, we have
it, our recorders, everything is being recorded. So this is what we need to focus on effort, that is
what will be appreciated, and there is prohibitionist upon the people of a city, which we have
destroyed, that they will ever return. Meaning once a person has left this world, they're not coming
back, until when the dam of yet jujin damage has been opened. This is meaning the return will only
be close will be on the Day of Judgment. And when will the Day of Judgment happen when the signs of
the hour will be fulfilled. And of them is the release of yet jujin juge and they from every
		
01:07:11 --> 01:08:00
			elevation will descend. Remember your judgment dude are a people they are from the children of Adam,
and they are not presently free on Earth, because little codename put them behind the barrier, but
they will emerge at the time, when Allah subhanaw taala will decide close to the Day of Judgment.
And when they will emerge, they will be many, many in number, so many that people will not even try
to fight them and they will take over the earth, meaning they will destroy all you know, sources of
food, all trees, all our water sources also. And we see that the Muslims at the time will retreat to
a mountain in a cave they will hide there with reciting his salah and they will beg Allah subhanaw
		
01:08:00 --> 01:08:46
			taala and Allah subhanaw taala will cause some insects some creature to infect their necks, and they
will all die meaning yet due to my judge will all die like the death of a single soul. And then soon
after that the day of judgment will happen will cataldo Belvoir will help. And when the true promise
has approached, then suddenly the eyes of those who disbelieved will be staring in horror, while
they say oh woe to us. We had been unmindful of this rather we were wrongdoers. Indeed, you meaning
you or who deny and what you worship other than Allah or the fire would have held, you will be
coming to enter it had these false deities been actual gods, they would not have come to it, but all
		
01:08:46 --> 01:09:30
			are eternal they're in for them. They're in his heavy sign. And they they're in will not here. It's
so noisy and Hellfire, their own screams and shouts will be so loud they will not be able to hear
anything. So we see here that in *, both the wish the cane, the the people who are associated
partners with Allah and the beings that they worship besides Allah, both will be in *, I mean,
the idols that they worship. So then the people of muckety muck that Oh, he says worship besides
Allah, are you saying that he will also be in there, it is said Indeed, those for whom the best
reward has proceeded from us. They are from it far removed. They will not hear it sound while they
		
01:09:30 --> 01:10:00
			are in that which their souls desire abiding eternally liahona woman Fazal aka bomb, they will not
be grieved by the greatest terror and that will be when the resurrection will occur. As people will
be rising further from their graves, Allah subhanaw taala will grant His righteous servants calmness
at that time, or it is the time when the people of * will be taken into *, or the time when
* will be closed on the or the time when death will be slow.
		
01:10:00 --> 01:10:46
			at all of these times, Allah subhanaw taala will grant them security, what are the lacava Wilma iica
and the angels will meet them, welcoming them from every direction accompanying them saying how they
will come on lady quantum to what I do and this is your day, which you have been promised. So those
who do good here will be welcomed there. The day when we will fold the heaven, like the folding of a
written sheet for the records soprano law right now, this guy is so vast, expanded, and on the Day
of Judgment, all of this will be wrapped up like a squirrel is wrapped up. As we began the first
creation, we will repeat it that is a promise binding upon us. Indeed, we will do it. And We have
		
01:10:46 --> 01:11:09
			certainly written in the book, meaning in zooboo, after the previous mentioned that the land of
Paradise is inherited by my righteous servants, and this is the land that we should be seeking the
land of Paradise in nifi had Ella Bella Han leucovorin RBD. And indeed in this Koran is a
notification for worshipping people.
		
01:11:10 --> 01:11:56
			For those who worship Allah, in this Quran is a notification. Meaning if you want to worship Allah
and you want to continue to worship Allah, then you have to keep listening to the Quran. You have to
keep taking the reminders from the Quran. Allah Allah said NACA Mata Leela el amin, and we have not
sent to you or Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, except as a mercy to the worlds and we see that
many people are benefiting from his mercy today. And in the Hereafter, people will benefit from his
mercy endlessly because he was sent as a mercy, but it is only those who believe in him. So the La
Jolla sentiment follow Him who will benefit from his mercy. Remember, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
		
01:11:56 --> 01:12:40
			wa sallam was sent to save people, not to condemn them to help. He was sent to rescue people from
him, so that people believe in Him and follow Him. And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
whenever he was asked to invoke, you know, pray against a certain people, he would say I was not
sent as a Laron as someone who curses were in them or is to Ramadan, I will send as a mercy as a
gift in in another Hadees. We learn more that as a gift. And this is the reason why, as long as he
was as long as he was present amongst the people of Makkah, the people of Macau were not even
punished. It was only after he left, that the punishment was sent upon them in the form of different
		
01:12:40 --> 01:13:23
			battles. And then we see that on the Day of Judgment also, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
will intercede for people, we learned shofar it Leonid caballo at min Almighty my intercession will
also be for those who commit major sins among the people of my nation. Say, it is only revealed to
me that your God is but one God, so will you be Muslims in submission to him? But if they turn away,
then say, I have announced to all of you equally My message is for all and I know not whether near
or far is that which you are promised meaning the day of judgment? Indeed, he knows what is declared
of speech, and he knows what you conceal. And I know not, perhaps is a trial for you, and you are
		
01:13:23 --> 01:13:52
			given enjoyment for a time, caught on become will help. The Prophet has said My Lord, judge between
us in truth, what a man and our Lord is the Most Merciful and Mustang, the one who's helping Assad
or allow my Tesla foon against that which you describe. So all the false accusations that other
people have maka hurled at him sallallahu wasallam all that he suffered because of them. Look at
this beautiful response that he was taught that this is what you should say
		
01:13:53 --> 01:14:48
			sudo to hedge Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim Yeah, uh, you Hannah suta Pura back home in Nazareth. Assa
t Shea on our alim. All Mankind, fear your Lord. Indeed, the convulsion of the final hour is a
terrible thing. Yes, the day of judgment will have isn't zenna an earthquake, such an earthquake
that will cause even those who are buried in the depths of the earth to come out. And we've learned
in the Quran that the earth will throw out its burdens, meaning everything that is hidden inside the
earth will come out what it will kobudo birth unit, so imagine this Zelda that will cause the earth
to turn inside out. It is shaped when our alim it is a terrible thing. It is real. It is coming. On
		
01:14:48 --> 01:14:59
			the day you see it. Every nursing mother will be distracted from that child. She was Nursing at that
moment, and every pregnant woman will abort her pregnancy.
		
01:15:00 --> 01:15:47
			And you will see the people appearing intoxicated while they're not intoxicated. But the punishment
of Allah is severe, and other people is He Who disputes about Allah without knowledge and follows
every rebellious devil. This is how people go astray. It begins with arguing arrogantly without any
evidence without any knowledge, arguing about Allah subhanaw taala Why did Allah say this? Why did
Allah create this? Why did Allah make this any this kind of Gitane about Allah without any
knowledge, this is a few title Gita which doesn't help a person at all. It only makes them be
arrogant, and it only turns them further away from guidance. So first we see there is ignorance. And
		
01:15:47 --> 01:16:35
			then he attempts to quantify upon muddied, he follows every rebellious devil, meaning there is a
following of desires. So such a person is clearly under the influence of shaytaan quotevalet it has
been decreed for every devil that whoever turns to him, he will misguide him, and will lead him to
the punishment of the Blaze, or people, if you should be in any doubt about the resurrection, then
consider that indeed, we created you from dust, then from a sperm drop, then from a clinging clot,
and then from a lump of flesh formed an unformed, subprime Allah, Allah is informing you of this,
why, that we may show you and we settle you in the wounds whom and we settle in the wounds, whom we
		
01:16:35 --> 01:17:23
			will first specify term, then we bring you out as a child, and then we develop you, that you may
reach your time of maturity. And among you is He who is taken in young death while still a child.
And among you is He who has returned to the most decrepit old age that he knows, after once having
knowledge, nothing at all. And you see the earth barren, but when we sat down upon it rain, it
quivers and swells and grows something of every beautiful kind. So two proofs of resurrection are
given over here, how people are born, and then how the earth is revived to life. So if Allah
subhanaw taala, can create human beings from something so tiny, something so insignificant, in a
		
01:17:23 --> 01:18:07
			place that is so hidden, that even a woman does not know what is going on inside of her body. And if
Allah subhanaw taala can do this, that he can alter resurrect people, that he could be anila who
will have that is because Allah is the truth, and because he gives life to the dead, and because he
is over all things competent, and that the hour is coming, no doubt about it, and that Allah will
resurrect those in the graves, this is happening. And all the people is He Who disputes about Allah
without knowledge or guidance or an enlightening book from him. And he there is no evidence, there
is no revealed scripture, there is no sound sound judgment. So all of his argument basically is
		
01:18:07 --> 01:18:50
			based on what on desire on whims on whatever just came to mind. twisting his neck in arrogance to
mislead people from the way of Allah, for him in the world is disgrace. And we will make him taste
on the Day of Resurrection, the punishment of the burning fire. While it is said that is for what
your hands have put forth, and because Allah is not ever unjust to his servants. So it is important
that we remain humble, that when we see the truth, when we learn something from the Quran,
especially when something is based on revealed knowledge that we don't stand arrogantly against it,
we should be humble there, we should accept it. And yes, we will have questions. But remember,
		
01:18:50 --> 01:19:32
			questions should always come from a place of respect. And from a place of humility, humility, this
is very, very important. The problem is that because we have discovered a few things, and we have
learned about a few things, we have started to think so highly of ourselves, that we think we have
the solution to every problem and we can protect ourselves from every danger. And then, and then our
current situation shows us that really, we are nothing, and it's best for us if we stay humble, and
we don't claim that we know everything. So we whenever we have questions about the Hereafter, about
the origin of the creation, about how Allah subhanaw taala created human beings, any question that
		
01:19:32 --> 01:19:59
			we have, always ask with other with respect, not with arrogance, and ask with humility. Remind
yourself that Allah subhanaw taala is greater. I am not he knows, I don't know. And it is necessary
that we believe in the unseen that we believe in a lab. And if you think about it, how strong is our
belief in the unseen these days, that even though we cannot see the virus with our own eyes,
		
01:20:00 --> 01:20:35
			So careful before we touch anything, before we step outside the house, we're extra careful, because
we know that it exists even though we haven't seen it with our own eyes. So Pamela, so the, you
know, if someone reliable tells you about someone believable, someone who is true, tells you about
something, you believe in it, even if you haven't seen it with your own eyes. And the prophets of
Allah were reliable, that were honest, they've never spoken, untrue statement. So we must have
imagined in the unseen belief in the unseen
		
01:20:36 --> 01:21:25
			woman a nasty my yard? Will the law allow health and other people is He who worships Allah on an
edge? How, if he is touched by good, he is reassured by it. But if he is struck by trial, he turns
on his face sopran Allah, you see, when a person has a man when a person believes they're certainly
tested, why, so that a person knows where they stand, and then they can strengthen themselves? You
see, when a when you exercise a muscle, you don't exercise it in order to break it, right? You
exercise it with the intention to strengthen it. Yes, the process is painful, but it is for a good
reason. And people who don't exercise their muscles properly, any who are not exercising correctly,
		
01:21:25 --> 01:22:13
			then yes, they cause damage to their own bodies, right. So this is why it is important that when we
first start exercising, we get trained, right? We do it with a trainer, someone who can teach us. So
just like that, when we're going through trials in life, it is necessary that we take lesson from
the Quran and Sunnah so that we don't snap, we don't break. So remember, we will be tested in
regards to our faith. But what is being condemned over here is that this person is worshiping Allah
on an edge meaning just about to fall. So if he's touched by good, if we receive certain blessings,
he stays on Islam, but then the moment there is some hardship he falls off of the cliff. So we learn
		
01:22:13 --> 01:22:47
			in a Hadees, that among that, this ayah was revealed about a man who used to come to Medina. And if
he is sorry, that this ayah was revealed about people who would come to Medina, meaning to embrace
Islam, and then after embracing Islam, if, you know, they had a son, or his or their animals have
children, etc, meaning they increased in their wealth and their prosperity, they would say this
religion is really good. But if they did not increase in worldly terms, instead they suffered, they
would say this religion is bad.
		
01:22:48 --> 01:23:26
			So we learn another Hadith that once a man came to Medina, and he accepted Islam, he gave his way
out to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, his pledge of allegiance. And then this man felt
really ill. And this has happened with many people, even Brunello de la hora, who fell ill in Medina
when he first arrived. So this man, he came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. And he said,
cancel my oath, I don't want to be a Muslim anymore. So proud Allah, and he he blamed Islam for his
illness. And this is what some people think that the or this is how some people behave with Allah
subhanaw taala. As long as you know, their their hours are being answered in the way that they want.
		
01:23:26 --> 01:24:07
			They're very good, very nice, as long as their wishes are being fulfilled, there, they will be
obedient, they will do righteous things. But as soon as they're hit by a difficulty, they fail a
test. It's like I am doomed. Everything is ruined. Islam is horrible. Allah hates me. Allah doesn't
like me, jumping to such horrible conclusions. Remember, problems are a part of life. So don't blame
Allah. Don't blame the religion. Don't blame the Quran for the difficulties and problems in your
life. These problems are here for a reason. So learn from them. He invokes instead of Allah, that
which neither harms him nor benefits him, that he co who alone Allah will buried. That is what is
		
01:24:07 --> 01:24:37
			the extreme error because in some people turn away from Islam, and they start worshipping other
gods, they start worshipping other beings instead of Allah subhanaw taala. So this shift is extreme
error. He invokes one whose harm is closer than his benefit, how wretched the protector and how
wretched the associate, so remember, there is no equivalent to Allah, no equivalent whatsoever. If a
person turns away from Allah, there is nothing at all. Nothing at all. That can give him what Allah
subhanaw taala could give him
		
01:24:38 --> 01:24:59
			in the law you the hero Latina Amano, where I'm you know, slowly had Jeannette integrity mentality,
and how, Indeed, Allah who will admit those who believe and do righteous deeds to gardens beneath
which rivers flow Indeed Allah does what he intends. So those who are patient, those who are
steadfast, Allah will not waste their effort. Whoever should think
		
01:25:00 --> 01:25:12
			Allah will not support his messenger in this world and the hereafter let him extend a rope to the
ceiling, then cut off his breath and let him see will his effort remove that which enrages him?
		
01:25:14 --> 01:25:59
			So this idea can be understood in a number of ways. One interpretation is that if a person thinks
that Allah subhanaw taala will not help him, then Okay, in your anger and in your frustration, go
and even kill yourself, will that help your situation? No, it won't. Will it save you from your
predicament? No, it won't, it's only going to further increase your problem. So the way of dealing
with life's challenges is not with anger and rage. It is with acceptance and patience, because it is
such people who survive. You see some people, they go to the gym once and then they get so tired,
they get angry with the instructor, and they say, you know what, they were torturing me, I'm never
		
01:25:59 --> 01:26:40
			going to go back again. Okay, don't go back again, who's going to suffer, you will suffer. You know,
the instructor is not there to torture you. Their goal is they don't find pleasure by making you
work hard. No, they're there to help you. And, and to build you to make you stronger, to make you
healthier. So if you if you don't like it, that's your problem. And only you are going to suffer. So
it is very important that we take life's challenges in the in the same way as well. don't resent
them. Don't be upset and annoyed and irritated all the time. That now it's this problem. And now
it's that problem. And now this and now that no accept, and be patient, and see how of us punked out
		
01:26:40 --> 01:27:21
			his help will come and you will conquer one thing after the other until in sha Allah, He will enter
agenda and that is our goal. And thus have we sent the Quran down as verses of clear evidence. And
because Allah guides whom He intends, Indeed, those who have believed, and those who are Jews and
the sabians of the Christians and the major ones and those who are associated with Allah, Allah will
judge between them on the Day of Resurrection. Indeed, Allah is over all things witness. Do you not
see that to Allah prostrates whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth, and the sun, the
moon, the stars, the mountains, the trees, the moving creatures, and many of the people, soprano
		
01:27:21 --> 01:28:06
			love, any such big things, the sun, moon, mountains, trees, they're all prostrating to Allah.
They're submissive before Allah, they're doing whatever less private Allah has commanded them to do,
and what are we doing? But upon many, the punishment has been justified, who those who refuse to
make such that to Allah and he whom Allah humiliates. For him, there is no bestower of honor. Why
may you hit a lair who, family who may macrame? Indeed, Allah does, what he will. So we see here
that the sun, the moon, the stars, mountains, trees are mentioned here. Why because a lot of times
people worship these these creatures. So it is mentioned here that any How can they be God when
		
01:28:06 --> 01:28:48
			Allah is the one who created them, He is the one who subjected them and they all prostrate to Allah.
So remember, such that is only for Allah, not for anything else. So we should not bow down to any
human. Sometimes in certain cultures, you know, we bow people bow down and in respect to their
elders, this is also incorrect, because such there is only for Allah. And we learned that when a
person prostrates to Allah, then this is something that Allah loves. The Prophet sallallahu already
said was asked about the deeds which are most beloved to Allah. And he said, are Laika because it
sujood make frequent prostrations before Allah, why, because you will not make a single such that,
		
01:28:49 --> 01:29:33
			without it, raising you a degree because of it, and removing a sin from you because of it. And
remember, when a person has said that, you do such the on, on seven bones, on your forehead, nose,
your your two hands, your knees and your feet, right. So these parts of the body are touching the
earth when you make such them. And these parts of the body will not be consumed by the fire of *.
Meaning even if a person enters *, because of some other crimes would or Yeah, the beloved if a
person does enter * because of some other crimes, these parts of their body will not be burned by
the fire of health. And it is because of these parts of the body, that they will be recognized in
		
01:29:33 --> 01:29:59
			*, and so they will be taken out by the intercession of the believers. These are two adversaries
who have disputed over their Lord, meaning there are some people who surrender who submit and then
there are other people who stand arrogantly who become angry with Allah, and who go on denying
Allah. And there is a huge difference, but those who disbelieved will have cut out for them garments
of fire, pull
		
01:30:00 --> 01:30:45
			Upon their heads will be scalding water by which is melted that within their bellies and their
skins, stuff little clothing of fire is mentioned over here, just as fire wraps a person and becomes
a person's identity. Certain people go around this world, identifying themselves, you know very
proudly saying I don't believe in God I reject God I reject Islam any it's their identity. And
remember the punishment for sin is similar to the sin itself. So they will have clothing a fire in
*. And it is also mentioned Heidi's about the shoes of fire in *. And scalding water will be
poured over their heads. So it will go down their heads burning through their heads down their
		
01:30:45 --> 01:31:03
			bodies, by which is melted that within their bellies and their skins that will come out of their
feet. And for striking them are masons of iron, every time they want to get out of * from
anguish, they will be returned to it, and it will be said taste the punishment of the burning fire.
		
01:31:04 --> 01:31:43
			In contrast, Indeed, Allah will admit those who believe and do righteous deeds to gardens beneath
which rivers flow, they will be adorned, they're in with bracelets of gold and Pearl. And their
garments they are in will be silk, what a contrast. And you see here, out of all the blessings of
Jenna bracelets of gold and Pearl are mentioned, Pearl bracelets are even mentioned in the Quran,
not just gold, and other places we also learned about silver. So we learn that on the Day of
Judgment, the jewelry of the believer will reach as far as his widow reaches
		
01:31:45 --> 01:32:28
			any this shows us that if you want to wear jewelry and paradise, especially bracelets, there are
some people who really like jewelry, if you like that, then make sure you make whoodle frequently
and properly, properly. Meaning you make sure that you rub the places that are supposed to be washed
sometimes you know women become very extra careful when they have makeup on their faces. So they
will not make will do the entire day. Or they will just resort to making to mom that is not correct
by the way their mom is only allowed one will do is not possible. So when you wash your face, make
sure you rub properly. When you wash your arms, make sure you rug properly so that no no part gets
		
01:32:28 --> 01:33:13
			left dry. And then make it frequently also don't be lazy in that. Because the jewelry of the
believer will reach as far as his widow reached in the world. And they had been guided in worldly
life to good speech and what is a good speech law either in the law and to hold on. So they accepted
it, they followed it, they they adopted it, and this is why they were guided to the path of the
Praiseworthy. illa serapion. Hamid, this is the path that Allah likes the path that takes to Allah
approval, the path of Allah. Indeed, those who have disbelieved and avert people from the way of
Allah, and from almost either harem, which we made for the people equal or the resident there in,
		
01:33:13 --> 01:33:53
			and one from outside, meaning whether a person is a resident of Makkah, or has come from outside of
Makkah, every Muslim has equal right to access must do that. And whoever intends a deed therein of
deviation in religion or wrongdoing, we will make him taste of a painful punishment. So remember,
committing the sin anywhere is wrong, but committing the sin within the huddle within animosity that
how long it is worse. This is why there is greater punishment for that. So be very careful. And
mentioned when we designated for Ibrahim the site of the house, say, do not associate anything with
me and purify my house for those who perform to laugh and those who stand in prayer and those who
		
01:33:53 --> 01:34:33
			bow and prostrate surprise Allah, Allah subhanaw taala chose the place where the cargo was to be
built. And look at the message that was given to Ibrahim at that time, don't commit shit with me,
meaning this house of Allah is only going to be built for what purpose for the worship of Allah
alone, not for the worship of Hassan or Hussein or anybody else, this is only for Allah. And then
this house has to be clean, clean from what clean from ship, meaning only Allah subhanaw taala
should be worshipped over there, nobody else should be worshipped. And then this also means that
this this house of Allah should be clean, meaning from physical uncleanliness also, we learned that
		
01:34:33 --> 01:35:00
			in Hadees, that the deeds of my people the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said the deeds of my
people good and bad were presented before me. And I found the removal of something objectionable
from the road among their good deeds, and the sputum, meaning the spit, that a person leaves and
buried exposed in the masjid, among their evil deeds are stuff that a lot so be very careful when
you go to the masjid before you get it from any place. Look around you
		
01:35:00 --> 01:35:22
			yourself. Did you drop a tissue? Did you drop a few crumbs? Did you leave anything pick that up?
Well as infinera Sybil henge and proclaim to the people the Hajj pilgrimage, they will come to you
on foot and on every lean camel. They will come from every distant pass from far off places, and
this is true. Ibrahim Renison I made that announcement so long ago.
		
01:35:25 --> 01:36:09
			Until today, people go for Hajj from distant far off places. Why go for Hajj? What is the benefit?
What is the reason Leah shadowman Fei the home that they may witness benefits for themselves. And
these benefits can only be witnessed, they can only be experienced when a person goes for hunt. This
is why it's a life changing experience. And they mentioned the name of Allah, unknown days over what
he has provided for them of sacrificial animals, so eat of them and feed the miserable and poor. So
remember, the first 10 days of the hedger, these are the best days ever. And these are days of the
kind of Allah they are of little a young adonia there are the best days of the world. And the best
		
01:36:09 --> 01:36:49
			and any good deed that is performed in them is beloved to Allah subhanaw taala. And this is why we
have been advised to increase in delille takbeer, the Hamid to say la ilaha illAllah to say Allah
Akbar and to say Alhamdulillah and you see at Hajj when people have gathered from different places
all over the world, when they worship together. You know, being able to worship together brings
about another feeling, being able to remember a lot together brings about a different feeling. So
that feeling is necessary, it strengthens you, it grounds you then let them end their untidiness
because over the course of the days of Hydra person does get untidy, there's so much travel back and
		
01:36:49 --> 01:37:27
			forth, and fulfill their vows and perform tawaf around the ancient house that has been commanded.
And whoever honors the sacred ordinances of a law, meaning the rituals that Allah tada has assigned
the places of worship that he has designated the times that he has chosen. So whoever respects the
honors them, it is best for him in the sight of his Lord, and permitted to you are the grazing
livestock except what is recited to you. So avoid the uncleanliness of idols and avoid false
statement. Notice how Chinook is mentioned and lion is mentioned right after, and we think lying is
no problem at all.
		
01:37:28 --> 01:38:14
			And you see, idols have been called unclean over here, avoid the uncleanliness of idols. Why?
Because loving them, adoring them worshipping them is as unclean for the heart as some filth is when
it touches your body. And he it dirties the heart inclining only to Allah, not associating anything
with him. So stay away from schilke and he who associates with Allah, it is as though he had fallen
from the sky and was snatched by the birds or the wind carried him down into a remote place, stuff
that allow meaning, such a person is completely destroyed, there is no hope for him and just like
that, if a person ends up on the day of gentlemen, having committed shift that he did not repent
		
01:38:14 --> 01:38:14
			from
		
01:38:16 --> 01:38:59
			then remember Allah does not forgive Schick. That is so and whoever honors the symbols of Allah
remember the symbols of Allah we have to honor and the symbols of Allah what anything which is part
of Deen anything that I that that is that that is a part of our religion, whether it is for example,
a beard that a man keeps, as, as as a son now the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam a hijab that a
woman wears the Kaaba, the masjid, the Quran, in all of these are symbols of Allah. Indeed, it is
from the piety of hearts, these are rituals, but their outward performance any yet these are
rituals. And this is these rituals are to be done with the piety of the heart, because remember,
		
01:39:00 --> 01:39:44
			just focusing on the external is not enough. So for example, if a person wears a hijab, but then in
the heart is not taqwa, then any it's not enough, you have to join the external with the internal,
any focus on the external aspect of ibadah. And also bring about the color in your heart. For you,
the animals marked for sacrifice are benefits for a specified term, then their place of sacrifice is
at the ancient house, being there to be slaughtered at Amina, and for all people we have appointed a
right that they may mention the name of Allah over what he has provided for them of sacrificial
animals, meaning even the previous nations were required to slaughter their animals and mentioned
		
01:39:44 --> 01:39:59
			the name of Allah upon them, for your God is one God. So to him submit, and give good tidings to the
humble web. ashida mohabbatein. Who are they? There are those who want to Allah is mentioned their
hearts are fearful
		
01:40:00 --> 01:40:03
			Their hearts move They tremble and to the patient
		
01:40:05 --> 01:40:44
			and the patient over what has afflicted them, meaning their patient in difficulty, and the
establishes of prayer, the established Salah, and those who spend from what We have provided them.
This is a sign of being a humble person. A humble person is not someone who looks down. humble
person is not someone who speaks very softly. A truly humble person is one who has humility in their
heart. And because of that one allies mentioned, their heart trembles because of that they're a
patient in difficulty, because of their humility. They establish prayer, they're not arrogant,
they're not stubborn and lazy. And then because of their humility, they share the good that Allah
		
01:40:44 --> 01:41:23
			has given them with others, and the camels and cattle, we have appointed for you as among the
symbols of Allah, because these are to be slaughtered in the name of Allah, especially at the time
of how much for you there is good, so mentioned the name of Allah upon them when lined up for
sacrifice, because camels are so huge that you cannot lay a camel down in order to slaughter it. So
a camel has to be, you know, standing in a certain way. And when they are lifeless, other sides,
then eat from them, and feed the needy and the beggar. Thus have we subjected them to you that you
may be grateful. So we see here, that the way of slaughtering these animals has been mentioned. And
		
01:41:23 --> 01:42:04
			what is being repeated again, is the fact that the name of a lot should be mentioned. And then
secondly, once you have all of this meat, then don't just worry about yourself, that what what you
know you're going to grill and what you're going to freeze and what you're going to enjoy later and
what you're going to enjoy right now, no, enjoy it yourself. But then also share it with others.
This is all part of sugar. Their meat will not reach a lot when you slaughter an animal. The meat
doesn't reach a law, nor will their blood. But what reaches him is piety from you. That is what we
need to focus on. Yes, we select the best animal. Yes, we slaughtered at the right time. Yes, we
		
01:42:04 --> 01:42:49
			slaughter in the best way we take the name of Allah. All of that is important. But remember, a
ritual is not just an empty ritual. It has to be filled with the piety with the taqwa of Allah. And
that is what makes it and that is what puts life in that act of worship. That is what makes it
acceptable to Allah soprano Tada. So when a person does something with the taqwa of Allah, then
remember the reward is preserved with Allah soprano Tada. We learned about ritual sacrifice that
were among the Hanukkah from the hadoo lacquer in the Arabic that as for your ritual slaughter, it
is preserved for you, it is stored for you with your Lord, meaning its reward is saved with Allah
		
01:42:49 --> 01:43:32
			for you. Thus have we subjected them to you, that you may glorify Allah for that to which he has
guided you, and give good tidings to the doers of good Indeed, Allah defends those who have
believed, Indeed Allah does not like everyone treacherous and ungrateful. Permission to fight has
been given to those who are being fought. So here the Muslims were given permission to stand up for
themselves and take revenge Now, why because they were wronged. And indeed, Allah is competent to
give them victory. They are those who they are those who have been evicted from their homes without
right only because they say Our Lord is Allah. They didn't commit any crime. There was no criminal
		
01:43:32 --> 01:44:13
			record, no murder, no theft, nothing. The only reason they settled up boonah law. And we're not that
a lot checks the people, some by means of others, there would have been demolished one as trees,
churches, synagogues and mosques in which the name of Allah is mentioned. So why is it the Muslims
are, were allowed at that time to fight the people of Makkah, because the power of the people of
Makkah had to be broken, because in their transgression, they were, they were stopping at no limit.
And so Allah subhanaw taala has given this permission to people to take revenge, and to Muslims
especially why so that the oppression of the oppressors is broken, and Allah will surely support
		
01:44:13 --> 01:44:58
			those who support him when I am Soren Allah Humayun Soto, Allah does not need our help, he will help
those who help him mean those who help his cause. Indeed, Allah is powerful lock away unit Aziz, he
is powerful, exalted in mind, he can deal with his opponents himself, but he honors you by giving
you a chance to support his the to see how loyal you are to him. And they are those who if we give
them authority in the land, they will establish prayer and gives a cat and enjoin what is right and
forbid what is wrong. Any if Allah, Allah grants them freedom, this is what they will do, they will
not become deceived by their freedom and power and to Allah belongs the outcome of all matters and
		
01:44:58 --> 01:44:59
			if they deny you
		
01:45:00 --> 01:45:43
			Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, so before them did the people have no and odd and some who
would deny their profits, and the people of Ibrahim and the people of Lupe and the inhabitants of
Medina and Moosa was denied. So I prolonged enjoyment for the disbelievers that I sees them, and how
terrible was my reproach? And how many a city did we destroy while it was committing wrong, so it
has now fallen into ruin, and how many and abandoned well, and how many a lofty palace, these
structures are standing, but the inhabitants are gone. So have they not traveled through the earth
and have hearts by which to reason for takuna home kulu boo Yong ki, Luna beha hearts by which to
		
01:45:43 --> 01:46:30
			reason and ears by which to hear. So having an ear functioning ear is not enough. It is to listen to
what is good and benefit from what is good. That is what makes IRS any beneficial for Indeed, it is
not the eyes that are blinded, but blinded are the hearts which are within the chests. And they urge
you to hasten the punishment, but Allah will never fail in his promise. And indeed, a day with your
Lord is like 1000 years of those which you count, this is why we become impatient. And for how many
a city did I prolonged enjoyment while it was committing wrong, then I seized it. And to me is the
final destination. say oh people, I am only to you a clear water. So those who have believed and
		
01:46:30 --> 01:47:17
			then righteous deeds for them is forgiveness and noble provision. They did noble deeds, they will be
served in a noble honorable way. But the ones who strove against our verses seeking to cause
failure, those are the companions of hellfire. And now an example of that is mentioned. And we did
not send before you any messenger or prophet except that when he spoke, or recited the Quran shavon
threw into it, meaning some kind of misunderstanding, meaning shavon tried his best to interfere
with the speech of the recitation of the Prophet and to disturb it, but Allah abolishes that which a
pawn throws in then Allah makes precise his verses, meaning whatever shape on try to insert was
		
01:47:17 --> 01:48:00
			abolished, and Allah is Knowing and wise. So therefore, whatever the prophets conveyed, is pure from
any adulteration, because a lot eliminated the work of shaitan. That is, but then why did Allah
allow shaitan to, you know, interfere in the first place? That is, so he may make, which I found
throws in a trial for those within whose hearts as disease and those heart of heart and indeed the
wrongdoers are in extreme dissension. And so those who are given knowledge may know that it is the
truth from your Lord and therefore believe in it, and their hearts humbly submit to it. And indeed,
it and indeed is Allah the guide of those who have believed to a straight path, despite the crafts
		
01:48:00 --> 01:48:43
			of shape on so we see that there are three types of hearts There are three types of people. The
first is Alinea, feel Kuru be muddled those in whose hearts as a disease in which is a weakness. So
faith is not complete. So shavon manages to affect such hearts. So when such people hear satanic
suggestions, they hear satanic speech, they get deeply affected by it, and it becomes a trial for
them. The second is, well, casia eukanuba home those whose hearts are hard, who don't get affected
by any warning, no advice. And so they don't understand. They fail to comprehend the words of Allah
and His messenger. So when they hear satanic suggestions, satanic words, they easily get influenced
		
01:48:43 --> 01:49:29
			because those satanic words only confirm their biases. And then third is those of knowledge. Those
whose hearts are soft and tender, humble, believing. And so when chant thought when Shivani words,
when satanic suggestions, and satanic speech is going around, they don't get affected. In fact, they
actually become even more firm in their faith. The words through which a pawn misleads people become
a means of further strengthening them in faith. Why? Because now they're able to see the truth even
more clearly. You see, every now and then we hear some strange things, you know, people will raise
controversies about the Prophet sallallahu Ortiz and about the Koran. So we see these responses and
		
01:49:29 --> 01:49:59
			people some people immediately get affected. So they will even go to the point of leaving Islam.
Then there are other people who for them, such articles and such, you know, things are like fire for
them, you know, so they, they they get so happy, they they get further into their disbelief, and
they use that to lead other people astray as well. And then the people of Emad people have
knowledge, they only become more firm in their email. through such trials. Millis panel data makers,
among among them
		
01:50:00 --> 01:50:42
			But those who disbelieve will not cease to be in doubt of it, until the hour comes upon them
unexpectedly, or their comes to them the punishment of a Baron de all sovereignty that day is for
Allah, He will judge between them, so they, so they who have believed, and then righteous deeds will
be in the Gardens of Pleasure. And they who disbelieved and denied our Signs for those, there will
be a humiliating punishment, and those who emigrated for the cause of Allah, and then were killed or
died, alone will surely provide for them a good provision, so don't pity them. And indeed, it is
Allah who is the best of providers, He will surely cause them to enter an entrance with which they
		
01:50:42 --> 01:51:26
			will be pleased. And indeed, Allah is Knowing and forbearing that is so and whoever responds to
injustice with the equivalent of that with which he was harmed and then is tyrannized a load surely
aid him Leon Solana Hola, Indeed Allah is pardoning and forgiving. So this is Allah has promised
that he certainly helps the oppressed. And this is why the Prophet sallallahu already said and
warned us against the prayer of the oppressed. He said fear the prayer of the oppressed for it is
lifted up on clouds. And Allah says, By my honor, and might, I will surely help him, even if it is
after some time. So Liam surana, Allah, Allah will help him. And this I also makes clear that the
		
01:51:26 --> 01:52:07
			person who takes revenge only as much as the wrong that wasn't up to him, then he is not the
aggressor. He's not doing the law on him the aggressor is the one who initiates the oppression and
abuse, whether it is an insult, or it is, you know, a punch or anything like that. We don't know how
to use that when two people revile each other, meaning they hurl verbal abuses at each other, the
responsibility for what they say, rests on the first to speak, as long as the one who wronged does
not become excessive. So be very careful, don't initiate a loan. That is because Allah causes the
knight to enter the day and causes the day to enter the night and because Allah is hearing and
		
01:52:07 --> 01:52:49
			seeing, he knows what people have done, he hears them and and he is fully able to change the
circumstances of people. That is because Allah is the truth. How was I able to do that because he is
allowed is the truth. And that which they call upon other than Him is all falsehood. And because
Allah is the Most High, the grand, do you not see that Allah has sent down rain from the sky and the
earth becomes green? Look at how Allah changes things. Indeed, Allah is subtle and acquainted, To
Him belongs what isn't the heavens and what is on the earth? And indeed, Allah is the free of need
the Praiseworthy, do you not see that Allah has subjected to you, whatever is on the earth, and the
		
01:52:49 --> 01:53:31
			ships which run through the sea by his command, and he restrains the sky from falling upon the earth
unless by his permission, Indeed Allah to the people love our Ufa, Lehane he is surely kind and
merciful. Never forget that. And he is the one who gave you life, then he causes you to die, and
then he will again give you a life indeed, mankind is ungrateful. For every religion, we have
appointed rights which they perform. So each oma was given certain rituals. So all Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam let the disbelievers not contend with you over the matter, but invite
them to your Lord because some people are very quick to criticize, you know, different rituals in
		
01:53:31 --> 01:54:14
			Islam. So, every religion has their own rituals. Indeed, you are upon straight guidance. And if they
dispute with you then say, Allah who are lemuel Bhima Dharma loon Allah is most knowing of what you
do. This is how you respond to people who stubbornly argue with you, not for the truth, but to
insult you. Just remind them, Allah knows what you're doing. Allah will judge between you on the Day
of Resurrection concerning that over which we used to differ. Do you not know that Allah knows what
is in the heavens and the earth? Do you not know that Allah knows what is in the sky and earth?
Indeed, that is in a record, Allah knows everything and everything is recorded as well. Indeed, that
		
01:54:14 --> 01:54:28
			for Allah is easy, and they worship besides Allah, that for which he has not sent down authority,
and that of which they have no knowledge, no evidence whatsoever, and there will not be for the
wrongdoers any helper.
		
01:54:30 --> 01:54:59
			And when our Verses are recited to them as clear evidence is you recognize in the faces of those who
disbelieve disapproval, they're visibly upset, irritated, annoyed. They're almost on the verge of
assaulting those who recite to them our verses, they get so angry. Say, Then shall I inform you of
what is worse than that? It is the fire which Allah has promised those who disbelieve and wretched
as that is the destination or people An example is presented solely
		
01:55:00 --> 01:55:45
			Listen to it. So all of us are being asked to listen to this carefully. Indeed, those you invoke
besides Allah, meaning those you think are very capable of helping you, you think that they respond
better than Allah does. So this is why you ask them, and you depend on them and you expect from
them, Do you realize what they are, they will never create as much as a fly, even if they gather
together for that purpose. And this is not just the idols that people used to worship once upon a
time or they worship today. This is even, you know, the science that we saw depend on any Yes, we
have advanced a lot 100 a lab, but are we capable of making even a fly? Really, we're not.
		
01:55:46 --> 01:56:32
			They will never create a fly, even if they gather together for that purpose, realize the weakness of
the creation before the Creator. And if the fly should steal away from them a tiny thing, they could
not recover it from him. Because you see now what is modern shake, it is atheism it is denial of
God. So you think so highly of yourself? Well, what is what what is it that you're even capable of
doing? You cannot make a fly and if the fly takes something away from you, you can never recover it.
You cannot even track a virus week or the pursuer and pursued. Why do people deny Allah? Why do
people associate partners with Allah because Malka de la have Kaka de they have not appraised a law
		
01:56:32 --> 01:57:18
			with a true appraisal. Indeed, Allah is powerful and exalted in mind. This is the real problem that
people don't understand who Allah is. They don't even know who Allah is. They think Allah is not
able to help them or that Allah could not have created something so perfect, something so massive
and huge. Do you know who Allah is? The reason why people deny Allah is because they don't know him.
This is a real problem. And sometimes people get disappointed making dua to Allah and then they
start turning towards you know, different things different beings, that perhaps they will answer
perhaps they will help any What do you think about Allah that He doesn't like you, that his
		
01:57:18 --> 01:57:56
			treasures will will diminish if he gives something to you? Allah subhanaw taala gives to those whom
he loves and those whom he does not love. You don't have to be likable because Allah is that our man
or him? And why should you think in the first place that Allah doesn't like you? Because there is
nothing more honorable near Allah than Dora. Remember that when you call upon Allah, you become
honorable in the sight of Allah. Allah chooses from the angels, messengers, and from the people.
Indeed Allah is hearing and seeing. So Allah chose gibreel among the angels and he chose Muhammad
Sallallahu wasallam amongst human beings. In a hadith we learn that Allah examined the hearts of the
		
01:57:56 --> 01:58:42
			servants and found the heart of Muhammad Sallallahu where to send them to be the best. So he chose
him and sent him with his message. He knows what is presently before them, and what will be after
them and to Allah will be returned all matters. Yeah, and you're letting me know all you who have
believed. Bow down Macomb core was Judo make Sen make prostration while Bududa back home and worship
your Lord with our don't hide and do good things. Come to flee home that you may succeed. Use your

what will make you successful. Don't just chase the dunya which he do feel that he has a jihadi and
		
01:58:42 --> 01:59:24
			strive for Allah with the striving due to him, the striving that he deserves, who which the vehicle,
he has chosen you what modularly considered him and Howard and he has not placed upon you in the
religion, any difficulty. So Aren't you going to strive because Allah subhanaw taala has not created
any difficulty in Islam. The difficulty is actually inside of us, we find certain things difficult
because of our weakness or our laziness. Allah has not paid the religion difficult. Look at how many
things are lost Panasonic has made easy for us. When a person is not able to make will do then to

able to go to the masjid, you can make your home into a Masjid, there is even fasting if you're

02:00:00 --> 02:00:43

Forgiving and Merciful you know how these we learned that very the Allah has pardoned for me my oma
