inshallah will continue from the heydays of Kitab. Will other in the chapter which is about using the words way look or way, Huck and apparently as we learned that way, look way health I mean, if you look at the meaning of these words, they seem to be very harsh expressions. However, when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam use these words as expressions, of course, he did not mean them in the literal sense. And this is something that we need to remember that when expressions are used in everyday language, they're not to be taken in the literal sense because that's not what the speaker intense. So let's look at the Hadees and cello will begin from her these number 6232 had
nothing most of notice mareel had nothing I will hate on Khalid and Abdullah recommended me Habiba. kurata and abhi Allah us now Raja Luna, Allah, Allah juhlin are in the Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. A man praised another man in the presence of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam for color. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said way, luck, water you Katara Rupa Rupa a faker water you because you have caught the neck of your brother Salah Athan and he said these words three times and then he said man can I mean command the Han Lama ha Lata whoever must praise another person, meaning he doesn't have any other option but to praise another person fully upon Cebu full
on and then he should say that I think that so and so is such well lo has Siebel and Allah is his reckoner meeting, Allah knows that person better well that was up here and Allah he hadn't and I do not claim the purity of anyone before Allah, in Cana Yala mu, if he actually knows about that person, meaning he should only speak on the basis of the knowledge that he has not assumption or noxious things that he has heard from other people. And secondly, if he must praise another person, then he must say, disable that I think that so and so is like that. So if somebody has brought this Hadees over here to show that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam use the expression way, look,
and in this head, this is a huge lesson for us, we have read this Hadees earlier in kuttabul, others as well. But in this Hadees, we see that when you praise someone in their presence, then you should say, I see. Meaning I think that they are that you are such and such. And when you are describing them, or when you're praising them in their absence, then you don't need to say I think, why because you should say I think in their presence in order to protect them from the negative effects of praise. Remember that praise, definitely It is something very positive, it's very helpful. We see that a lot of people benefit from positive strokes from the you know, from praise. But praise can
also have very damaging effects. It can actually undermine motivation, it's it can actually be very, very detrimental to people. Now, it's important that we understand the difference between
process or effort, praise and ability praise. You see, effort praise is to praise someone for the effort that they have put in, all right for the work that they have done. So for example, your child draws something really nice or your child does your homework, and you say you did well, okay. And the other way of praising someone is to praise their ability to recognize the innate talent. So for example, you tell your child, you are perfect, or you are amazing, right, you are the best. Now, there's a difference between these two kinds of praise. And there's studies that, you know, show that when you praise the effort of a person, then this leads that person to a growth mindset. Why
because a person believes that, you know, that I did well, because of the effort that I put in and so
I am able to, you know, exert more effort work harder, and my success is related to my effort or my achievement rather, is related to my effort. And so I do have, you know, some control over, you know, my, my work or my goals. And on the other hand when you praise someone for, you know, their abilities, so, for example, you are the best or you are smart, or you are intelligent, right, then what happens is that, you know, for example, children, they begin to think that I am only good because I am smart, so I have to be perfect. And I I'm not allowed to make mistakes. So there are studies which show that when children are praised this way, they're actually more likely to cheat.
Why because failure is not an option for them. And so, and what happens is that when they do suffer some kind of failure or loss, then they, it's very hard for them to recover, because they think that their achievement is related to their innate skills, not the effort that they put in. So first of all we see from this Hadeeth is that when you have to praise someone in front of them, don't praise them in absolute terms. Why because as a prophet sallallahu earlier set him said that this is like cutting their neck off cutting, cutting someone's neck means what? That you're killing them, you're destroying them. And this is what happens with the wrong type of praise that it that it kills
productivity, right? It destroys a person's motivation to work hard, and it can also negatively damage a person's intention, it can make them insincere, as a result of which, you know, their deeds are being wasted. So now they are doing good only to impress people. They're not doing for the sake of Allah subhana wa Tada. So, this is why we see that sometimes praise can actually be detrimental, it can actually be damaging, and this is why the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam discouraged over here, but we see that in other Hadith, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is seeing himself, you know, praising certain individuals, for the effort for the qualities, you know, for their, for
their skills, you know, for for the work that they were doing. So definitely, there is nothing wrong in praising people, but it has to be, you know, done in the right way and in the right time. Secondly, then then, let's look at the next Hades had destiny Abdul Rahman IGNOU Ibrahim had this an invalid Anil ozar a year on his re an OB Selamat mahaki an OB sorry that Audrey you caught a Bane and abuse Allah Allah Who are they he was sending me oxime with that a Yeoman policeman. So I will sorry though, Audrey reported that once the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was dividing, he was distributing some you know some wealth that was to be divided amongst people. For father the will
for Karla will Hawaii Hawaii sloty so then Hawaii Sarah, who was a radula min min Benito amin, who was a man from Bhanu Tamim. He said yo Rasul Allah or messenger of Allah era dill be just meaning you're not being fair. So you should be fair in the distribution of this wealth, color the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said way lacquer water you may or they will either love or they'll who would be just if I am not just for color tomorrow. So tomorrow the Allahu anhu said eventually allow me further agree buka so I may strike his neck off, meaning Oh Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam allow me to kill this man because of the way that this man has disrespected you and has accused you
of being unjust color the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, No, do not kill him, because in Allah who has Harborne? Yeah, Piero hadoo consolata who masala tea him this man is going to have us harben and another Hadees we learn you know from his progeny from his descendants there will be people who will be such that yes people are hadoo consolata who masala tea him that one of you would be little his own prayer compared to their prayer. meaning they're going to pray so perfectly and their their Salah is going to be so amazing that when you compare your own Salah with theirs, you will think that your Salah is nothing what's the AMA humorously me him and his fasting with their
fasting meaning the way that they will fast how frequently and how you know beautifully you will be amazed by the way that they fast. However, young ruhuna mina Dini they're going to exit the religion. How come Oh rupees, Sammy Minerva miyetti just as an arrow exits a bow, meaning when an arrow is shot, then what happens very
Quickly it leaves the bull and the Prophet sallallahu earlier seldom explained the manner in which you know an arrow leaves the bull. He said Yun LaRue ala nicely fala yuja doofy Shea so my young Guru ilaria Safi Fallujah Duffy Shea. So my young daughter Elena de falla yuja Duffy shade. So my young daughter Ella Khuda de falla, yuja Duffy Shea subequal father with them. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam explained that one looks at his Arrowhead and there is nothing on it, then he looks at the mount of its head and there is nothing on it, he will look at its shaft and there is nothing on it, then he will look at its feathers and there will be nothing on them for it
has been too fast for excrement and blood. What does this mean? You see sometimes when you are you know when something goes really quickly. So for example, in this case, the Prophet sallallahu where it is and it was talking about how the arrow leaves the bull that it leaves so quickly that you don't see it anywhere you're not able to find it Okay, meaning a person will look at the bow itself the arrow is gone. All right, he will look at the target to which he shot the arrow and the arrow is not there. And eventually a person will realize that the arrow has actually gone through the prey it has gone through the game, okay meaning the animal that has been shot. So basically, the Prophet
sallallahu artesan have described the swiftness with which an arrow leaves a bowl. And by that analogy, he explained how quickly these people are going to exit Islam, they're going to leave the religion
and then he explained that, that that then he explained Yahoo junella Haney for katima ness, that these people are going to appear at the time when people are going to be divided. Meaning that's when these people are going to first emerge. I add to whom Roger loon and their sign is a man meaning of them will be a man who is such that if there your day he one of his hands is mithila saddle marotti
it will be like, like a woman's breast Oh mithila our mythical Bugatti
myth lol Bugatti. That double double or like a piece of flesh that is moving loosely on a abou sorry, then Abu Saeed said that ash hadoo I testify less a mirror to whom in an obeah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam I heard this from the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam Well, I shall do any con tomorrow I login. And I testify that I was with arlie radula Horan, who hanaa khattala whom when he fought these people fell to me Sir Philip Kotler and such a person, meaning the person whom the Prophet sallallahu where it is and I'm described that his hand will be such that it will have a lump of flesh, meaning without any bone in it, and it will, it will move loosely. Such a person was
actually searched for Phil UTLA among those who had been killed on that day for OTB here Allah narrative, Levy, Narita, Naboo sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and we found the same description on him as the Prophet sallallahu earlier said him had given meaning this person's hand was exactly as the Prophet sallallahu earlier some of them had described. So remember how to bring this Hadees over here of course to show how the Prophet sallallahu Urdu said and use the word way Look water you so it is permissible to use expressions like that. Now this are these is very interesting in this hadith is basically one of the signs of of the hour. And this is one of the minor signs of the of
the Day of Judgment. Remember that there are major signs of the Day of Judgment as well as the minor signs of the day of judgment and the minor signs of the Day of Judgment. Remember that they they started occurring from the time of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam and they will continue to occur and it's possible that they occur more than once and of the minor signs is the appearance of a group called Hello adage. Okay, because the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said the yahiro Juna, they will come out meaning they will appear at this time. And then he mentioned that they're going to leave the deen they're going to exit the religion very quickly also. So this is why this
particular group is called whoa adage and the Prophet sallallahu artesan and describe them that they're going to be such that they're going to appear to be extremely religious. All right, very strict in their religiosity, extreme in their religiosity, so extreme that if you were to compare yourself to them, you would feel like you're nothing you would feel like you're
You know your rebar is nothing your charity is nothing your recitation of the Quran is nothing in in other Hadees we learn that they will recite the Quran, but it will not go past their throats, meaning their recitation will be amazing, but it will not really have an impact on their soul. It will not really, you know, transform them, it will not really make them better people, and they will do it without real comprehension. And particularly what is mentioned in this Hadees is that they will exit the religion. Now, remember that the whole adage they first heard you meaning the first appeared against RDL de la Mourinho, meaning they fought him. And this is exactly how they were on
the surface, very religious, but they were extreme in their beliefs, which is why they even they even declared the companions of the Prophet sallallahu, to set them to be non believers, because of different claims. You know, one of their claims was that if a person commits a major sin, then they're no longer Muslim. And they accuse the companions of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam of a certain sin. And based on that, they said that they're no longer Muslim. So, this is the, you know, the the extreme which was in their religion, and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he described them that they will leave the religion and he also described the appearance of other men
among them. And this man was found amongst the people who had fought our little yellow horn who, so here, what do we need to take from this Hadeeth is how that you see. It's important for us to keep asking Allah subhanaw taala for guidance. Remember that guidance he Daya is of three types. Okay, guidance. hedaya is of three types. The first type of a diet is a diet it shed, which is when you're asking Allah subhanaw taala to guide you to know and find out about what is right about what he wants us to do. All right about what the Quran means, for example, because the Quran is for hedaya but knowledge alone is not enough. Right? Understanding what needs to be done alone is not enough
the prophets are leading with Salaam were sent to guide people, meaning to show people the right path that this is what you're supposed to do. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was sent to teach people the book. Right, you are lemo home with Keita but a lot of people who heard the Quran, they you know, just learning what the Quran says was not enough. So this is the first step off guidance. He though is shot to know what needs to be done. The second step is hedaya tofi, which is to be able to act upon the knowledge that a person has learned because a lot of times people you know find out what needs to be done but the actions don't change. Right. So he Daya Delphic, and
this is only with the ability that Allah subhanaw taala gives, it is only possible when Allah subhanaw taala opens up the path for for a person and gives them the strength to make the change that is necessary. And then finally, the third is hedaya test beat, which is to be firm on the path of guidance. Because a lot of times what happens is that a person learns about what needs to be done. Right? They also make that change, but they're not able to maintain it. They're not able to remain steadfast. And so when we ask Allah subhanaw taala that Dino Serato muster cream that Oh Allah, guide us to Serato master claim, then these are the three things essentially that that we're
asking for and bring them to mind when you're asking Allah subhanaw taala that Oh Allah give me beneficial knowledge, that will Allah give me the ability to do what what what you what will please you and then finally, give me the ability to remain firm on the truth as well. So, we see that what is mentioned about the whole adage over here is that they will appear to be very religious extreme in their religiosity, but they will exit the religion very quickly, will it Yeah, the bill emulous personalizada protect us from being such people that they that they go to extremes and then belittle others and then it and then exit the religion quickly. May Allah subhanaw taala protect us. The next
Hadees had this an mo hammer who cottolin Abul Hasani Barona Abdullah of maternal ozeri you call a hadith an igloo, she had been on her main dibny Abdul Rahman abhi hooray ratar o the Allahu anhu and Allah jhulan utter Rasool Allah He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So Abu retinol de la hora reported that a man came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam for Kala Yasuda Allah and
He said O Messenger of Allah Halak to, I have been destroyed. I'm dead. I've been ruined Calaway Huck the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, way heck water you and remember I mentioned earlier the difference between way luck and way hack that way hack is basically more mild autoworker to Allah leafy Ramadan. The man said that I had relations with my wife during Ramadan meaning while I was fasting on an Arctic rocker button, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said free a slave allamah a Jew had the man said I don't have it. I cannot afford to do that. I don't have that much money on of Assam shahana Mota Tabby rain the Prophet sallallahu earlier sent him said then fast for
two months consecutively, Allah Allah still to your room and said I I'm not able to do that. Allah for author MC Tina Myskina the Prophet sallallahu earlier sent him said then feed 60 people who are in need allamah aged the man said, I do not find that meaning I cannot afford to do that. For OTB out of pin. So then what happened is that a basket of dates was brought to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam for Carlos the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said who for the sadequee, take it and go give it in charity, meaning give it as your expiation for Kala rasulillah so the man said O Messenger of Allah, Allah lady le Should I give it to someone other than my family? For one lady
enough CBD II buy the one in whose hand is my soul? Ma baina tonu bayhill Medina t What do you mean knee? There is no house in all of Medina that is more needy than mine. Meaning My family is the poorest We are, we are in most need. For law he can be sallallahu alayhi wa sallam so the prophets of Allah who already have seven left had badet and Yabu until his until his molars could be seen, meaning his back teeth could be seen call a hoodoo. He said okay, then take it tabara who Yunus who is Ricky what color of the recommended new holiday and his re way luck. So again, remember how he brings his Hades over here to show how the Prophet sallallahu Urdu said him use the word, the
expression way Look, and so there's nothing wrong in using it we have studied this hadith in great detail earlier. But what is, you know, definitely necessary to repeat is, how beautiful was the way of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that a man you know, he made this mistake. And the Prophet salallahu Urdu center was so approachable that the man could actually go to him sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and asked him that this is a mistake that I made, how can I solve it? And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam did not shame him, you know did not say How could you do that? You know, you should control yourself etc. Know the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam helped him
find a solution. And this is the very nature of our religion, that as human beings, we cannot be perfect, but when we do make mistakes or when or when others around us make mistakes, our focus should always be on fixing the problem finding a way out and every single time that the man said, I cannot do that, I cannot afford to do this. So on and so forth. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam you know he gave him another option another way why because the goal is to you know to XP it for the wrong that was done. And so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam helped him do that had done so a man of no other man had this Anil Walid had definite aboard I'm sorry you call ahead this
an igloo. She had been his review. And our thought evening is either Lacey here and a B sorry then Audrey Rotolo Mourinho and the Arabi and Kala Yasuda Allah so we learned in this Heidi's oh sorry the hotel he reported that and and our lobby our lobby as in a Bedouin said O Messenger of Allah forbid Nia Anil Hydra.
Tell me about hedra meaning about, about me about immigrating for the sake of Allah leaving your city your country and going to another place, and especially at the time of the Prophet sallallahu Urdu said I'm going to the city of the Prophet sallallahu Urdu said I'm living there in order to be in his company sallallahu alayhi wa sallam for color. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said way Heck, what are you in Chanel? hige Leticia did the matter of hedra is very, very difficult. Sinead it is it can be very intense. It can be very hard for her luck. I mean, Evelyn, do you have candles? collina on demand said yes, I do have camels, Allah for how to address other cutterhead the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said do you give it's sort of called meaning Do you give the cat on your camels? All interim demand said yes I do. Allah the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said Farman min. Wha it will be hard then
Go and do your work meaning do your good deeds beyond the oceans beyond the sea, meaning wherever you are, live there, stay there. And even if you're overseas, literally wha it'll be held overseas if you're there, but keep on doing what you're supposed to meaning gives a cat on your wealth, for in the law, her lainnya to come in America Shaya, because Allah will not neglect any action that you do, meaning a las panatela will reward you for the good that you do. No matter where you are, you don't have to be, you know, in a certain place for your deeds to be more rewardable. Now, this Hadees again, we have studied this before, in great detail. But basically we see that the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he did not encourage this man to make the hedgerow even though making the headline in the Quran is mentioned over and over again, from other ahaadeeth we learn about the importance of the digital. And in certain situations, it can even be necessary. And that is, of course, when a person's a man is, you know, in danger, that when a person is not able to practice their faith, a person is not able to, you know, fulfill their duty to Allah subhanaw taala then in that case, a person cannot make the excuse that you know where I live, it's really hard. Now, in that case, a person must think about relocating. But we see that this man, the Prophet sallallahu,
earlier said, I'm asked him that are you gives a cat which basically means Are you able to fulfill your obligations? where you are? Are you fulfilled? Are you able to fulfill your duty to Allah? And the man said, Yes, he didn't show he didn't exhibit any kind of hesitation or difficulty. And so, the Prophet salallahu Urdu Sallam told this man to stay where he was, and carry on obeying Allah and know that Allah subhanaw taala would not reduce, you know the reward for his deeds. So, this shows us a number of lessons. First of all, you know, perhaps the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam believed that this man would not be able to remain firm on the job because remember digital,
especially in the time of the Prophet sallallahu earlier sentiment wasn't easy. It was very difficult we learned about numerous companions who when they migrated to Medina they actually felt ill right. And then also remember that realistically practically speaking, any the entire world cannot possibly migrate to Medina right. So you have to kind of you know, stay where you are. And this shows us that it is not wrong for a person to live in a land where you know, there are non Muslims as long as a person is able to observe their Deen if that is possible, then there is nothing wrong in staying where a person is, had this in our Villa Huebner Abdul Wahab had done a colleague
Neil Harris had done a shorba to on work with me, Mohammed Abizaid, Sameera to Irby are named neuroma. rhodiola hora and Houma are in the B's sallallahu alayhi wa sallam a Kala whaler come away How come? Allah Sherpa to Shaka Who? So the Lebanon Romana reported that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said whaler calm or way Hakuna and the narrator wasn't sure as to which version the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had used. And if somebody is perhaps bringing this Hardee's over here to show how these expressions are very similar. So, he said then after that lethargy, rule Bharath equal fara do not revert to being unbelievers after me that yelled * boo, bah lukumi
acaba, Berlin, that some of you strike the necks of others, meaning that you start killing one another, do not do that, we'll call it another or unsure better way. heckum, we'll call our amagno Mohammedan or an eBay loco, oh, way hakam. So, way, way, you know, similar in meaning, but as I mentioned earlier way, is sort of harsher compared to way way basically is a little softer, more gentle, and it denotes compassion or pity. But in this Hadees, we see the Prophet sallallahu earlier said, and give a very strong warning to the people that do not become,
you know, could fall after me by killing each other. Because it's not the place of a believer to kill another believer in this is not the way of a believer, this is something that only a non believer would do. But of course, this doesn't mean that if a Muslim commits a murder, then they become, you know, they're out of the fold of Islam. Because this has mentioned in the Quran that, you know, if two groups of believers fight each other, then you should, then you should try to reconcile between them. So Allah subhanaw taala still calls them believers. And when the Prophet sallallahu wasallam used the word kofod over here, it was like like a warning, like a very strong
warning. And the thing is, that if a
person makes one sin lawful for themselves. If a person crosses one boundary, then it's very easy to you know, cross another boundary and then another boundary. So one sin only leads to another sin which leads to another sin. And so a person can go so far ahead in sinning. And this is why we see that murder is mentioned. And Cofer is mentioned because murder is something serious, violating you know, killing another human being an innocent person. This is something very, very serious and it can lead to many great crimes, it can even lead a person all the way to COVID so when the Prophet sallallahu Urdu some use these words in it's a very strong way of warning people against raising
weapons, you know, against each other.
The next Hadees is had this in our Emerald morale same had nothing to her mom and Catherine Anderson, and Roger Landman led by deity at an obeah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And as rhodiola Horan, who reported that a man from the desert came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam for Kalia rasulillah and he asked a messenger of Allah Mata Sarah to call him atone. When will the hour be established? Allah He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said way lecker what do you what are the teller Ha? What is it that you have prepared for it? Kolyma are the two Lucha in a knee or hip boom, mahalo Sula, who the man said, I haven't really prepared much for it except for the fact that I love Allah
and His messenger. Allah the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said in the commandment Babita, you will be with those whom you love for Allah when Luca valic. So we said, meaning we asked and as for the long run, who is saying that when I look at Alec and us as well, meaning is this only for this man who asked his question or does it also apply to us? Allah the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said neram yes for you as well, that you will be with those whom you love. So Anasazi Longhorn who said for 30 hana Yama, even for a handshake at Eden. So on that day, we were extremely happy for Moana, hula moon little movie rottie Academy ochrony. And he said that around that time, a
slave of mohila passed by and he was a you know of my generation, meaning he was about my age and remember that Ernesto de la Mourinho was young, he was in his teens, basically, at the time of the Prophet sallallahu already who signed up for Allah so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said in ohira, whether if this slave is given life, following you the Rika horombo, then extreme old age will not reach him Hector de homosassa to until the hour is established, locked up for a who shorba to learn patata semir to understand Arnie Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and what this last statement means is that, before this child becomes an old man, the SAR will be established, okay?
Meaning that our is not far. Now, if you think about it, that child and he grew up, Allahu Adam, how long he lived, but he died. And the day of jetman has not come yet. So the ruler might say that what the prophet sallallahu wasallam meant by a Sarah is your sorrow, your final hour, meaning your death, because remember that when a person dies, when a person leaves this world, then their era has basically begun, right? Because when a person dies, and they're, you know, buried in their grave, then the first high sab begins from that moment onwards, because the angels come and they ask, Who is your Lord? What is your religion? Who is your Prophet sallallahu already who was setting them, so
the questioning begins, right? And then based on that questioning, will be how a person is going to be in their, in their buzzer, you know, the life in abaza will be, will be determined by, you know, how a person lived. And then, of course, on the day of judgment is the greater Sara. Right, the greater Our. So, in this Hadees, we learned something very important. And of course, in my book, it brings us Hardee's over here again, to prove that the Prophet sallallahu already said i'm used the expression way, look, when the man asked, When is the day of judgment going to be the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
did not tell him very soon or you don't need to worry about it. It's not going to be in your lifetime. You know, there's this going to happen that's going to happen then eventually the Day of Judgment is going to happen. No, he
He he didn't, you know talk about that he didn't entertain that idea that a person is concerned about the exact moment of the hour. Why? Because this is a knowledge that Allah subhanaw taala has concealed from us. In fact, this is a knowledge that Allah subhanaw taala has concealed from all of his creation. Nobody knows about the exact time of the hour except to only Allah subhanaw taala. Right, when gibreel came in the form of a human being before the companions, and he asked the Prophet sallallahu earlier seven, what is a man what is Islam? What is their sin? And then he asked, When will the hour be? The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that the one who is being asked
does not know any better than the one who is asking, meaning you and I are equal in terms of our ignorance about the exact time of the hour. So Allah subhanaw taala has not informed anybody about the time of the hour, this is a knowledge that he has kept with himself. Why to protect us? How you see if we knew about what time the Day of Judgment is going to be, then what would we do? This would actually encourage us to commit sin. How? Because we would say that, you know, what, they're still these many, you know, years and centuries, etc. So enjoy doing whatever you're doing. And you know what, just make Toba right before it. Right?
And same is that, you know, we have not been informed about when exactly we're going to die. So the moment of our death, and also the time of the day of judgment. These two things are lost Pousada has kept with himself, so that we are not encouraged to commit sin. You see, when you when you don't know about when something's going to happen, then you are prepared. Right? When you don't know exactly when guests are going to come you have an idea they're going to come around seven, but you don't know that might show up around 645. You don't know there might come around 730. And, you know, if they're such that they're unpredictable, then really you don't know. So, you know, you prepare
everything in advance, right? You are motivated to prepare in advance. But when you know that someone is going to come exactly at a certain time, then what do you do you you, you know, you're in your own world, doing whatever you want to and then five minutes before their arrival, right? You do what you're supposed to do. So Allah subhanaw taala has basically protected us. All right, by keeping this knowledge with himself. So when the man asked, When is the day of judgment going to be the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam directed him to what is more important? And what is that? What is it that you have prepared for it, because that is what matters. And then, in the, in the
last part of the Hadees, we learned that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he alluded to the fact that, you know, your death could be at any time, right? You're not going to live that long. This child might outlive you. So do you realize how close your death is? And once you die, then your hour has begun. Right? So we should be concerned about preparing for the hour instead of always, you know, obsessing over when the hour is going to be. And part of this is also you know, a lot of times people will talk about the signs of the Day of Judgment, right that oh, this sign has appeared and that sign has appeared and this must also be a sign and the signs of the hour are not there for us
to you know, be fascinated by them. That every time we learn of a sign of our hour of the hour, we're like, oh wow, that's so cool. Or That's so scary. Or you know, that's all we talk about know the signs of the hour, why are they called signs because they are an evidence of of the fact that the day of gentlemen is coming. So they're actually you know, supposed to instill fear in us.
That if the signs have appeared, that means the hour is also near and if that is near, that means I better prepare because that just means that my hisab is near right, my afterlife, my eternity my final home is near. So I better prepare for that. And and that is what the prophet sallallahu wasallam You know, he drew the man's attention towards this, that prepare for the hour instead of only asking about when it is going to be the next Bab a very important and beautiful Bab
is bad Allah Mati who biLlahi zoa jela the sign of the love of Allah the Exalted, Nikolay he, by his words in quantum to her boon Allah factor.
The Rooney your bib comala. If you truly love Allah, then follow me meaning follow the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And as a result of that, what's going to happen? Your bib como Allah, Allah will love you.
Now the words are allometry who Billa the signs of the love of Allah? What does it mean by this habila the love of Allah. This can mean three things. The first is that it can mean the love of Allah for the slave muhabba Tila he loved. Meaning what are the signs that Allah loves a slave? Okay? Or secondly, this can mean the love of the slave for Allah muhabba Tierra de les, the love that the slave has the worship or has the servant has for Allah exalted? What are the signs of that? What are the signs that a person truly really loves Allah? And then thirdly, this can also mean the love between slaves for the sake of Allah. Meaning what is the sign that people love each other?
Truly for the sake of Allah soprano, Tada. And then even Buhari, he brings an iron over here. So the sign for this love, right? The love that is for Allah that is by Allah that is related to Allah is that a person follows the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. And so remember how he brings the ire in contempt or a boon Allah factor the Rooney you become Allah, meaning if you love Allah, then show that love by following the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And this means that when a person follows the Prophet salallahu, alayhi wasallam, than this is a sign that he loves Allah. This is an evidence that the person truly loves Allah, because there's a lot of, you know, individuals who can
claim that I love God. But what is the proof of that? Right? What is the evidence of that the evidence is that a person will follow who the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam we're in the hustle and bustle he said that, you know, there were people who claimed that they loved Allah, so aligned tended to, you know, make a
you know,
basically, demand from them a proof of their love. Okay, and so this idea was revealed that called in contemptor, boon, Allah factor be Rooney. And then the idea goes, you become Allah, that Allah will love you then, meaning when a person follows the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, then what will happen, Allah will love them, which shows that when a person follows the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam, this is a sign that Allah loves that person. So you see, there's two things here now, following the Prophet sallallahu wasallam is an evidence of what it is an evidence of the fact that a person loves Allah. And it is also a sign of the fact that Allah loves that person.
Because love is something that shows right it is it is something that has signs, it is something that has evidences, it has a tangible impact, it is in the battlin meaning it is of course hidden in the heart, but it is expressed on the lahave right meaning it is expressed on on the apparent of a person.
So we see through this idea that the sign of Allah's Love is not that a person is wealthy, or that a person is very famous, or that a person you know has an abundance of worldly things, or that a person is poor. The sign of Allah's Love is not in singing or in fainting or in wandering or in wailing or in whirling. No your love for Allah and the love that you have from Allah, and the love that you have for the sake of Allah is in proportion to how much you follow the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam Why, why is it that following the Prophet sallallahu wasallam is a sign of Allah's love. Because the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is the role model that who sent that Allah
subhanaw taala sent right, Allah subhanaw taala is the one who sent the Prophet sallallahu or do you send them as a moron limb?
Right as someone who is supposed to teach us your limo mala keytab he was supposed to teach people the book, right? Use that key him he was supposed to purify the people, right? He is supposed to be the messenger that is to be obeyed.
That is to be followed. And his way is the way that Allah subhanaw taala likes the most, what in the kilala? hollow can or leave and indeed you are upon the best character, or leave the great, the great character meaning the Prophet sallallahu erdi of cinemas way has that stamp of approval, right? That it is approved by Allah the Exalted.
So the more a person aligns their way, with the way of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the more obedient they are being to who to Allah subhanaw taala? Because who sent the Prophet sallallaahu? Allah did, right, whose message did the Prophet salallahu already send him convey? The message of Allah? So when a person follows the prophets of Allah who are using them, what are they doing? They're essentially obeying Allah. And when a person will obey Allah, that Allah will love them. Allah will love that person. And a person can only follow the Prophet sallallahu or do send them out of love for Allah. Because why else would you follow a human being? Right? Why? You see
there any human being, even if it's your own parents, no matter how much you love them, and how much you respect them, there are times when you disagree with them. Right? And there are times when you will do things differently from them. But when it comes to the way of the Prophet sallallahu, alayhi wasallam. Any we have to try to follow his way so closely, that if he ate with the right hand, we also eat with the right hand, even if you know we have we're more more used to doing things with our left hand, right even if a person is left handed, they will still use the right hand to eat. Why? Because the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam gave that instruction, right? So why why would we
follow a human being? Why out of love for Allah subhana wa Tada.
So, following the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is an evidence it is a sign that a person loves Allah, and also that Allah loves that person. Now the question is, how is it that a person is to follow the Prophet sallallahu already he was Allah, were supposed to follow him. First of all, in our paida in our Kedah meaning in our beliefs, meaning that we believe in what he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam believed in so in the Quran, we learn am and Allah Sulu, Bhima own Zilla la uma Robbie, well me known that the messenger has believed the messenger believes in what in what what? In what was revealed to him from his Lord, meaning and whatever that Allah subhanaw taala has revealed to
him, the messenger sallallahu earlier said and believes in that one won't be known. And the believers also believe in that. So firstly, we're supposed to align our faith, our belief with the belief of who the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And remember, a man when a person believes that this is a sign that the last panel thought I loves them, because in a Hadees return that Allah subhanaw taala gives the world to those whom he loves, and also to those whom he does not love. But he only gives amen to those whom he loves. So first of all, we follow him sallallahu alayhi wasallam in terms of a pizza, that we believe in what he believed, secondly, in ibadah, in Nevada, meaning
that we worship Allah, the way that he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam worshipped him or zoologia that, for example, when it comes to Salah, right? We don't, you know, pray, however, we feel like whenever we feel like in the manner that we feel like no, we pray as the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam prayed. So, you know, for example, when you're sitting in the shower, at times, it can be very difficult to, you know, sit in that way where you, you know, stand your right foot up in a certain way, and then you're sitting on your left foot, it can be very painful for a person can be very hard. So, so the person still tries, right? They still keep practicing that no, I have to sit like
this, I have to sit like this. You would rather you know, sit in a more comfortable way but you don't do that you sit in the way that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam set, because that is the way that he taught, right, that is the way that he worshipped Allah the Exalted. Then thirdly, we follow the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in words, meaning that we speak the way that he spoke, right? We say the words that he said and and this is specifically you know, important when it comes to certain words of Riba like for example, in Salah, we say what he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, you know in different rituals, in different acts of worship, we use the column, the
duras that he sallallahu erny, who is seldom taught
All right. And in general, also we speak the way that he spoke. And there's a lot in cuttable others that we've learned about, you know, with regards to the way that the Prophet sallallahu Urdu set him spoke, and then following the Prophet sallallahu wasallam is also in actions, meaning that we behave we deal with one another, the way that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam dealt with people, right, our manner of walking, you know, our manner of, you know, dealing with children or with elders, this we align that with the way of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam, because he is also Aton has an excellent example.
And then remember that following the Prophet sallallahu, alayhi wasallam is also in terms of meaning that we leave what he left, right, that we stop where he stopped, we don't overstep, right? We don't, we don't try to get ahead of him. Because this is something that we have been told in the Quran that led to a demo, do not try to get ahead of Allah and His messenger. So stop where he stopped, right? So we don't invent things because we believe that the guidance that he left us with is perfect and complete. So here, the sign of loving Allah or the sign that Allah loves a slave is that a person follows the Prophet Alayhi Salaam, salallahu alayhi wasallam. And the result of this
is your bitkom Allah, Allah will love you and is that not the ultimate goal? That Allah Subhana Allah loves a person, because only then can a person be successful, right when the Lord of the worlds loves you. And that is not possible without the slave following the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Remember that when it comes to loving Allah exalted, then First of all, this is a sign of faith. When a person loves Allah, this shows that a person truly has amen because Allah says about the believers that when Latina, amanu, a shadow Hubba lilla, they are most strong in their love for Allah subhanaw taala then when a person loves Allah, then this is a means of test beat, meaning this
is a means of staying firm, on the right path, staying guided, because like we discussed earlier, it's not enough to just know and it's not enough to just start doing something good. It's important that we stay firm, and that firmness and stability will only come when a person loves Allah subhanaw taala. And then when a person loves Allah, this is a means of joy. This is a means of true pleasure. We learned in the Hadees that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam mentioned that whoever has three things than that person has, has found the sweetness of faith, right? Hello water, amen. And what are those three things one of them is that a person loves Allah and His Messenger more than
anything else, more than anybody else. So it's the most enjoyable pleasure of this world, you know, loving Allah subhanaw taala. Yet, even Abby, Cathy rahimullah said that we thought about something and we realized that there is nothing that people enjoy, that is better than loving Allah subhanaw taala and seeking his approval, meaning this is the greatest pleasure, there is nothing more pleasing than this nothing at all, to love Allah and to try to seek His approval. This is the greatest joy of this world. And if a person misses out on loving Allah, and a person does not experience that in this life, that they don't experience love for Allah subhanaw taala then they
have truly missed out they have truly missed out meaning you know for example, we think about people that Oh, they didn't even get married that they didn't even have children and they died before that we know we feel sorry for them. Right? But it is truly is sorry state that a person leaves this world without having experienced love for Allah the Exalted
Now let's look at the Hadees the first Hadith is had this unambitious blue Holliday had this an mo hemudu Jennifer unsure better answered a man on eBay l or an Abdullah Ernie Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam unknown caller and Maru Mirman a hubbub. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that a person will be with those whom he loves. Why Because love is something that leads to attachment. Right when you love someone, you are pulled towards them. And when there is no love when that love
deteriorates then, there is no attachment then what happens is that people grow you know far farther apart from each other. So, Alma omarama or whoever you are with those whom you love, this is in manner, alright meaning, you start acting like them, you start, you start working like them, your your nature begins to resemble theirs, you begin to think like them, and as recompense alter in the hereafter a person will be with those whom he loves.
So, in this life, we see what happens is that a person is with those whom he loves, this doesn't necessarily mean that a person is in the same place, right? No, but this is in terms of closeness, in terms of remembrance, that you keep thinking about them, you you start taking on, you know, their qualities, you start becoming like them. And at times what happens is that even if someone has passed away, and you know, a person still loves them, you keep their memory alive, right? You keep those things that constantly remind you of them, you don't want to forget them. So in your thoughts, in your conversations, you know, in whatever that you are doing, you are with the one whom you love,
and in the hereafter this will become real that a person will be actually with those whom he loves. So what does this mean? Why has a mumble hottie brought this Hardee's over here under this particular chapter heading? Because we need to take a look at our hearts and see, how much do we love Allah exalted, and how much do we love Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
Next Hardee's had this inequity, but no sir He had this Nigeria to earn our mush on eBay ale. Kala Kala Abdullah hypno Masaru then brought the Allahu anhu Jaya Raja Rani ala rasulillah he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So our beloved Massoud reported that a man came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam for Kala rasulillah and he said O Messenger of Allah. k Fatah Kula Fiera juhlin What do you say about a man who was such that A Hubba Coleman. He loves the people when a meal help be him, but he has not met them or he cannot meet them. For Connell Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the Prophet sallallahu earlier said and replied, and Mark O'Meara Amanda hubba, person will be with
those whom he loves or person is with those whom he loves. tabara, who God has given was a man of no corpsman were Abou r1 eternal are mushy and Abuja it in on Abdullah he on an abuse on Allah who already he was sending them. Remember how he brings, you know a slight different variation of the narration. Now in another Hadees, we learned that this man who came and asked this question was actually a Buddha rhodiola Mourinho that or messenger of Allah What do you say about a person who loves a certain people? But Willa, you're still clear a you'll hecka be Amelie him, but he is not able to meet their actions, meaning he's not able to get to their level, that there is no way that
that he can reach their level, there's a huge difference between them. And he knows that it is not possible. And this could be either because you know, they're no longer in the world or because really, their actions are so much better than yours that you don't, you don't even find in yourself that capacity or that ability to be able to do what they're doing. Right. So for example, consider the place of a Buddha rhodiola horn home, right, a great companion, but when you think about for example, Abubakar Ile de la hora, Abubakar Ile de la Mourinho, Yanni his deeds Subhana Allah remember that had these were the entire night sky was filled with stars, right and the Prophet
sallallahu Hardison compared the number of stars to the amount of good deeds that Abubakar Ile de la Mourinho accumulated just by being with him sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in the journey of his Allah. So how could a person reached that level? Right? How could a person reach that level? But we also know that in the Hereafter, you know, people will be in there in different projects in different ranks. So, a Buddha de la Mourinho and now think about it, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, any of course, the rank of the prophets is the greatest and you know that you can never reach their level. But when you love someone, you want to be with them, you want to be around them, right? You
don't want to be far away from them that that physical distancing is actually very, very difficult, right? It's actually very painful. So a Buddha Dylan Warren who asked and the prophets of Allah who already has said and responded that Al Maru, Mara man Hubba
In another version we learn he said under Marmon, bapta yeah about that oh Buddha you will be with those whom you love. Next Hades had this in a boomerang had this in a Sofia in our in our Machina. Beware alien and Abu Musab Cora peterlin, Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
It was said to the Prophet sallallahu Ernie he was alarmed by a Roger lubei Amen. Sorry, Lena Lena BIA. sallallahu wasallam it was said to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, what that are what you do you have bull coma, that a man loves a people welcome, I'll help be him. But he, he has not joined them or he is not able to join them. He's not able to reach their level. Caller the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said Allah omarama Hubbard a person will be with those who he loves. davara who abou more are we Otto one more hemudu one more Muhammadu obeyed. So, here again we see that a person will be with those whom he loves. And of course when it comes to loving the Prophet
sallallahu wasallam loving the righteous, then it is necessary that in that love, we have sincerity, that loving them should not be you know for the sake of impressing people that oh I love the Prophet sallallahu or do something I love so and so. I love the companions, etc. No, the reason for that love is sincere. Right? It is for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala and remember that those who love for the sake of Allah than they will be gathered together and Jenna also
had this and I've done a lot on our ob are unsure but our unarmoured ibni Murata and Salim amny a bill grd and Anna Sydney Malik in an urgent Salah Nabeel sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So Anna Sivan, Malik reported that a man asked the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam matassa are to your rasulillah When will the hour be or messenger of Allah? Allah or the teller Ha? He said, What is it that you have prepared for it? Allah or the Tula have been Kathie Lee Salatin, the man said I have not prepared for it. A lot of Salah well as Solomon nor a lot of fasting what else other content nor a lot of sadaqa meaning when I look at my deeds, I don't think I've done much. I don't think I have
a lot. I haven't prepared a lot of Salah you know a lot of fasting a lot of charity will at kidney or habibollah or sooner. But I do love Allah and His Messenger, kala, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, and tomorrow man,
you will be with those whom you love, you will be with the one that you love. And another version, we learned that anessa Dylan Warren who said that, and we learned this version earlier, that they were extremely happy when they heard about this and Ernesto de la Horne, who said that I love Abu Bakar. Right. And I love or what he expressed his love for the companions, he knew that these companions specifically and their status is so much higher, alright, but he said that I love them, even though I know that I am not equal to them. Right, but I love them. Now, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, we see that in all of these versions, and he directed people's attention to what
really matters, right? That you, you must not just be concerned about when the hour will be, you have to be concerned about what you have prepared for it. And these are Hadees they show us the greatness of Allah, his love for his slave. Meaning How great is the love that Allah subhanaw taala has for his slaves, that a person can go so far ahead, because of his love for Allah. Because you see, this man said that I don't have much I haven't done much Salah I haven't, you know, done a lot of good deeds. But what I do have is love for a line is messenger. So the so basically what we learn from this is that because of the love that you have for Allah, you could you can really go far
ahead, meaning because of your love Allah subhanaw taala can give you more than what you you know what you deserve because of your actions. And really, if we're honest with ourselves, our actions are truly deficient. They're not enough, they could certainly be better, they could certainly be more and this is why we see that. You know, some people asked, well, am I l Huckabee, him the man you know a person cannot reach that level. Right? So we are truly behind. In terms of our actions. We are truly deficient in terms of our actions, but because of the love that a person has for Allah and when Allah subhanaw
Tara loves that servant in return, any Look, look at this, that a person will be with those whom he loves meeting because of that love, you know a person will be upgraded so much Subhanallah and we see that a person at times, you know falls into sin, right a person ends up committing forbidden things, but because of the love for Allah and His Messenger sallallahu wasallam, there is hope for salvation, we learn that a man would be brought very often to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam for punishment for punishment, for consuming alcohol. And someone cursed that men before the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and when the Prophet sallallahu Ernest and I'm heard that he said, Do
not curse him, because he loves Allah and His Messenger Subhana Allah do not curse him because this man loves Allah and His Messenger, even though he ends up drinking alcohol and he ends up getting drunk and he is, he is caught and he is brought for punishment not once but repeatedly. Still, the Prophet sallallahu earlier set him said that this man loves a lion is messenger so you don't curse him. So we see that this love for Allah. Many, this not only helps us heal and get better, but it is also a source of salvation. Because you see, this man would sin, yet the Prophet salallahu earnings and I'm sad about him that he loves Allah, because the man would repent, but he would make Toba but
the soul the nature of the soul is such that it is a model to be Su. Right it constantly urges a person to do what is wrong. So that person would fall into the same sin, but then he would realize that he would make Toba again, and this is why when Allah subhanaw taala praises them with the pain in the Quran. He doesn't say that they don't commit for heisha. rather a loss Pousada says when levina either far lufa heisha done, that those people who when they do commit and an immorality, meaning you know they commit a sin Allah more enforceable or they wrong themselves. Meaning they commit a sin because of which they harm themselves they end up actually harming themselves. What do
they do the cuddle law they remember Allah festal photo Lee do not obey Him and then they seek forgiveness for their sins. Well my your fear with the noble Illa Allah and who could forgive sins except for Allah. When I'm you Sidhu Allah for Allah wa homie Allah mon. And they don't insist on that same meaning they don't remain there while they know. Meaning once they realize they repent. And this is exactly what this man would do. And so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Don't curse him. He loves Allah and His messenger. So we see that the love that a person has for Allah and His Messenger Salallahu Urdu Selim this love is a means of healing, it's a means of
improvement and it is also a means of salvation. But this love alone is not any enough. Because you see in the IR the remember what he brought earlier. It isn't just said, you know that if you love Allah than you do this. Now the result of that is also mentioned. If you love a lot and follow the prophets of Allah who already have someone and then Allah who will love you. Right? Allah will love you and when Allah will love you, then you are successful. So we all need to check ourselves that are we really sincere in our love for Allah that first of all, is there love for a lot in our hearts? Or is it just fear? Right or is it just some kind of awareness that Yeah, I know God exists.
I know I'm supposed to be worshiping God. No, it's not enough. You see everybody one of the pillars of rubaga is that a person loves Allah. Right muhabba the love of Allah subhanaw taala should be there. And what are the signs of off you know a person loving Allah. There are many signs in the Quran which tell us about how when Allah subhanaw taala. When, when a person is beloved to Allah meaning when Allah subhanaw taala loves a person
then you know there are certain visible actions. So for example, will lower your hibel motor pain or sabreen or mutata hearing that Allah loves the people who are patient. So when a person is showing patients that that shows that a loss Pousada loves them, right? Or when a person keeps their body clean, right then this is a sign that Allah subhanaw taala loves them right. Now, what about a person loving Allah? How do you check yourself that do I love Allah or not? Do I really love Allah or not? Because it is not enough to just say that I love Allah. What are the signs of that?
So first of all, remember that when a person loves Allah, then they love the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Even Cathy Rahim Allah
about this idea, the either Mr. Bahari has quoted here, that in quantum to hybond, Allah had to be Rooney. He said this idea is, is a, you know, it basically gives judgment, okay regarding those who claim that they love Allah, meaning if you really want to see whether or not you love Allah, you check yourself, do you follow the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam Do you love the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam whoever is on the way of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, then this is an evidence that this person loves Allah. So this is the first sign. If you love Allah, then you will love the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and you will love to follow him sallallahu
alayhi wa cetera. Then secondly, if you love Allah, then you will love the friends of Allah, you will love the righteous servants of Allah. Because remember that when a person loves Allah, then that then the heart that contains love for Allah is a heart that is clean. It is not a heart that is filled with jealousy, you know, with with animosity with grudges with ill feeling, and even if there's some kind of, you know, Ill feeling then there's some, you know, there's communication that okay, this is what I heard or this is what I think is that the case, right, not that a person forms an assumption, right, a lun. And then based on that assumption which the Prophet salallahu Arizonan
described as the falseness of speech right based on that assumption, a person goes in you know, says things or does things which are very hurtful. So, it will claim Rahim Allah said that the foundation of worship is muhabba right is his love for Allah subhana wa Tada, alright. And when a person loves Allah, this means that they love Allah with thee with the entirety of their heart, and they only love Allah subhanaw taala and they only love for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala. And so they love the prophets of Allah. They love the messengers of Allah, they love, you know the angels, as well as the Olia of Allah. So loving, the righteous servants of Allah is all part of loving Allah the
Exalted.
Then thirdly, if you love Allah, this means that you will be pleased with and happy with whatever that Allah subhanaw taala decides for you, including the painful things, right including the difficulties that you know when you when you love Allah subhanaw taala there is that trust that whatever Allah subhanaw taala has decided for me and is good for me. This is why in the Quran we're told all languorously burner Illa Khattab Allah who Lennar that nothing will hit us except what? What Allah subhanaw taala has decreed for us meaning even if it's something painful, even if it's a loss, even if it's something that is apparently damaging us. In reality, it is Lennar not eyeliner,
it is in our favor, not against us. Why? Because who am Alana He is our Lord. And so we love him and we know we trust him, that whatever he decides for us is is going to work out, it's going to be good for us. So loving Allah means that a person is pleased with the decrees of Allah subhanaw taala
and then we learn. Fourthly, loving Allah subhanaw taala means another sign is that a person love the speech of Allah, that a person loves the Quran, meaning that a person will spend time reading it, listening to it, reflecting upon it, they will actually spend time with the Quran. You see there are people who who will enjoy listening to certain songs, right? But then when a person truly has love for Allah, they will enjoy listening to the Quran, their joy, their joy in in listening to the Quran is greater than the joy that people feel in listening to their songs. So loving Allah means that a person will love the Quran. Number five, the fifth sign that a person loves Allah is that a
person will do things that Allah subhanaw taala loves, meaning that a person will adorn themselves with righteous actions and also with good luck. There is a very beautiful Hadith in which we learned that NSL de la Horne reported that some people came from Bahrain, okay to meet the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam you know, had some Buddha water he he made will do and when he was making widow, these people ran to the Prophet salallahu already inside of them in order to catch the water that was falling, you know from his face from his arms.
And whatever that fell on the ground that even, you know, pick that up somehow. And they begin, you know, wiping their heads in their faces etc, their bodies, their chests with that water. Okay, so the Prophet sallallahu earlier said I'm asked them that what made you do that? They said, horrible luck out of love for you a messenger of Allah, La nulla you have buena so that Allah will love us. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, if you want, that Allah and His Messenger should love you, then guard three things. Guard three characteristics meaning if you if you want that Allah should love you, alright, and if you truly love Allah, then do three things. First of all, be
truthful in your speech. Be honest, be truthful in your speech. Secondly, fulfill your trusts meaning you when you have been trusted with something and Amana has been given to you, then you should fulfill it. And then thirdly, be a good neighbor. Allah be a good neighbor. So we see here that when a person loves Allah, then a person will do things that are last panel Tara loves that, that will make them beloved to Allah. Seek loving Allah means that a person wants to be loved by Allah. And in order to do that, a person does those things which Allah subhanaw taala likes, and there are other signs as well. Like, for example, a person remembers Allah, a person, you know,
makes sacrifices for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala and a person is eager to do more good. And if a person loses that ability, or you know, completes, you know, something good, then they're eager to, you know, begin something else that is also good, why for the sake of almost panel data, because you you, when you love someone, you want to be connected with them. When you love someone, you want to continue to, you know, please them and seek their approval. So I ask Allah subhanaw taala to grant us His love and to make a sincere in our love for him, and to give us the ability to adorn ourselves with the other, that his messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam taught and exemplified and
showed to us and I asked the last panel tada to give us the ability to, to keep learning, may Allah Subhana Allah guide us with hedaya it shad that we keep learning, what we do not know that we continue on our path of of learning the sacred knowledge and that Allah subhanaw taala also gives us the ability to benefit from this knowledge that we we actually live it we actually practice it that this knowledge does not become an argument against us. And then May Allah subhanaw taala also give us the ability to remain firm on on what on whatever that we we have started doing and realist puntata give us the ability to continue because So, often it happens that a person begins something
good, but then they give up or that they stop meal loss parent or not make us amongst those melos parents or automakers amongst those whose every day is better than their previous state. So that we meet him while he loves us and we love him or xojo inshallah, we will conclude over here so panicle lahoma will be Hambrick a shadow Allah ilaha illa Anta a stone Furukawa to buoy Lake, WA Salaam Alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu.
