			So who there is Sam, he warned his people were bill Harvey, at the region of a half because that's
where their dwellings were.

			What called the holiday noodle, while in fact, Warner's had already passed another plural of
nannies. And who does it refer to by noodle messengers? Those who weren't there people.
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:15
			So messengers Warner's had already passed Mim benei a day before him. woman called V and also behind
him. What does he mean by that?
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:33
			That messengers had come before him and messengers also came after him. In other words, he was not
the only messenger. Before him there were messengers such as New hairless alum, and after him there
were messengers such as it will humor, listening, and so many others.
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:51
			And what was the main message of hooter s&m alert our Voodoo Illallah that you do not worship except
Allah. And this was not the message that only who their Instagram had brought. But this was the
message that every single messenger brought his people.
		
00:03:52 --> 00:04:02
			A letter Budo Illallah Why? Because in Niederhoffer Aleikum, are they ever Yeoman are leave, I fear
for you? The punishment, have a great day What is this great day
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:11
			either refers to the Day of Judgment, or it may also refer to the day of dunya in which the
punishment descends on the people destroying all of them together.
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:27
			into the truth if 50 we learned what he learned in a ha ha Gouda. Kalia como de la mala comin illa
hinzu enter od we sent their brotherhood or an incentive and he said, Oh my people worship Allah,
you have no data other than him.
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:50
			But instead of taking heed, instead of paying attention to what he was saying, what was the response
of the people or do they set a gitana Have you come to us later thickener and early hatena so that
you may delude us away from our gods. Without Ficano from the real fetters. Hamza gaff. If what does
it mean?
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:56
			ally But literally, what does it mean? To turn something from its original direction?
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:59
			We have read the word and I
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:17
			For whom? And to focus on how are you turned away? How are they turned away? meaning how are you
turned away from truth to falsehood, from right to wrong? that the truth is so clear, you understand
that you get it, but still, you leave it and you accept falsehood. That's what you follow.
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:48
			So over here, the people said, Have you come to us to turn us away, to divert us from our gods. We
are worshipping our gods, we are facing our gods, you want us to turn away from them? If that's what
you want from us, remember, we're not going to listen to you. We're not going to believe in you. 15
habima 30 Duna, then bring us what you promise us what you threaten us in contaminant sided pain, if
you are of those who are truthful.
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:58
			They're saying that bring us what you promises, what you threaten us? What does it mean? That we're
not going to believe in you?
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:09
			We're not going to believe in you. And they challenged him bring the punishment. And what is it
show? arrogance, pride. This was the height of their pride, height of their arrogance.
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:19
			Look at how boldly they challenge the messenger. We're not going to listen to you. You just bring
the punishment that you say is going to come upon us if you're truthful.
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:24
			When can a person be so bold, so arrogant?
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:30
			When he thinks he has nothing to lose, when he has no fear of the consequences,
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:37
			when he thinks he can defend himself, right? He thinks that no one can harm him.
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:47
			Now what is it that made these people so arrogant, so confident that they began demanding the
punishment of Allah?
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:53
			The reason is that they had been given great strength in destiny.
		
00:06:54 --> 00:07:02
			They were very mighty in terms of well, in terms of physical strength, in terms of craftsmanship.
They were very, very mighty in this way.
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:50
			We learned sort of the Sharla Iowan 31 to 130 for that who there on Instagram he said to the people
for the Hola Hola, Oakley Rooney, what the whole levy ama.com we met Darla moon about the combi anom
in Weber Nina what Jeanette and what were Yun their wealth has mentioned? That gu there is an answer
to them fear the one who has provided you with what you know, he has provided you with animals of
grazing livestock and children. So he has given you a lot of resources and also great numbers and
also gardens and springs, so they have property. They had resources. They had land. They had
animals. They were very wealthy.
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:55
			And when people think that they have everything what happens they become overconfident.
		
00:07:56 --> 00:08:15
			In total arafa 70 we learn all you can Eleanor Buddha law hahaha Whoa, when other Americana caribou
una de NaVi materi de una in condemning aside the thing. They said, Have you come to us that we
should worship Allah alone and we should leave what our forefathers have worship. Bring us what you
promises if you should be truthful.
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:29
			Allah who the early cerami responded to them in the malarial marinda law, that indeed the knowledge
it is with a law which knowledge knowledge about what about if the punishment is to come and when it
is to come.
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:42
			This knowledge is with Allah. He knows best if he's going to send the punishment meaning this is not
in my control. I am just here to warn you the punishment, Allah will send that
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:48
			we're overly welcome and I convey to you overseeded to be what I have been sent with.
		
00:08:50 --> 00:09:05
			inserted out of 68 we learned Ebola Welcome rissalah to be I convey to you the messages of my Lord,
this is my responsibility. What I can need are a component that alone, but I see you as the people
who behave ignorantly
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:09
			I see you as the people who are behaving ignorantly, what is General
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:16
			Ignorance. And what is ignorance when a person does not know.
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:27
			so jealous when a person does not know. And doll is also when a person has incorrect knowledge and
he thinks he knows.
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:35
			And is also when a person knows yet he doesn't act according to that knowledge.
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:37
			So it's as though he's ignorant.
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:54
			So when he says well our kidneys are rockin comentario ICU as the people who are behaving ignorantly
what was this ignorance that you don't realize you have no comprehension you have no understanding
		
00:09:55 --> 00:10:00
			that you are hastening the punishment of Allah. That's what you're asking.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:13
			For what are you thinking? You're behaving ignorantly? What are you asking for the punishment of
Allah, you should be thinking about changing your ways, not demanding the punishment of Allah.
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:37
			So when a person is zst, asking for trouble, then what does it show that he doesn't have knowledge?
Or that he doesn't have much understanding? He thinks he's right. But in reality, he is wrong. And
this is the deception that the people have adware in as well. They thought they were right. But in
reality, they were at fault.
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:51
			And we see that the people of McCall so what were they demanding from the Prophet sallallahu sallam,
the same thing for the Navy military unit in conterminous. Okay, so they're being made to understand
through the example of the people of Earth.
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:56
			So they asked for the punishment, and Allah subhanaw taala sent the punishment on them.
		
00:10:57 --> 00:11:13
			fella Morrow, who then when they saw it, meaning when they saw the punishment, or adila as a cloud,
and this cloud was Mr. Kabila, one that is approaching od t him their valleys.
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:25
			They saw this punishment in the form of a cloud. And this cloud, it was approaching their valleys,
their habitat where they used to live.
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:46
			The word is from their newsletters I in law, but and our audience is used for a dense cloud, a very
huge, thick, dense cloud, that is in the horizon that's visible in the sky, that spreads over the
entire out of the sky, what is out with,
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:52
			so a huge, dense clouds that you see covering the horizon.
		
00:11:53 --> 00:12:01
			So they saw a huge cloud, it was visible, and this cloud, it was approaching their valleys.
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:09
			Someone said that are over here gives a meaning of a sudden cloud, meaning a cloud that appeared out
of nowhere on the horizon.
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:39
			Because it is said that when these people, they refuse to believe in who it is, and they refuse to
accept this message, Allah subhanaw taala punish them with a drought, why? There are Lumia your own
so that they would realize their mistake, and they would turn to Allah, they would listen to the
messenger. And this has been the way of a loss penalty that immediately he doesn't destroy the
people completely. What does he do? He sends lesser punishment first, so that they realize their
mistake, and they turn to Allah.
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:47
			So the people of odd were also punished with a lesser punishment. And what was that? drought, no
rain.
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:50
			And they were suffering because of that.
		
00:12:51 --> 00:13:11
			I mentioned to you that these people, they had an arm, right? They had Jeanette Ryun. So when you
have all of this water is essential, isn't it? Water is essential. So when they had no water,
obviously, they were suffering a lot. But instead of taking a lesson from that, and changing their
ways, they persisted in their own ways.
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:31
			So what happened then? Allah subhanaw taala sent the final punishment upon them. And what was that?
It came in the form of a cloud that appeared from nowhere, all of a sudden, a huge cloud, covering
the horizon, and it was approaching their valleys. Odia has a Florida where the
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:51
			corner they said, the people they rejoice, they were very happy. They said, Heather, are you alone?
This is a dense cloud, Moon Luna, that will bring rain to us. Moon plate from the roof letters mean
photo, metadata is terrain monthly is one that rains, one that causes rain.
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:57
			So this cloud is going to come upon us and rain is going to fall down from it on us.
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:19
			But the messenger meaning good or SNM, what did he say to the people? But rather No, this is not a
cloud that's going to rain upon you. Rather who it is muster gel to me. It is that which you hasten
for? This is what you were so hasty for this is what you were so impatient for.
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:24
			And what is it that there were so impatient for punishment?
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:35
			So you were demanding the punishment, here it has come. And what was that punishment, the rehome a
wind, fee her in it either will Aleem a painful punishment.
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:45
			So that cloud that they saw covering the horizon that was approaching their valleys, what was it in
reality? It was a real It was a wind,
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:55
			you know, just like a hurricane, a cyclone? How is it it looks like a huge cloud, right? And it
moves very quickly.
		
00:14:56 --> 00:15:00
			So similarly, the site is a huge cloud approaching their event.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:14
			But in reality it was a win fee her either win or leave in which is a painful punishment. And this
when it blew for how long it lasted for seven nights and eight days
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:27
			into the first slot is 16 we learn for ourselves lamb and salsa Saharan, fi a Yemen now he said in
we sent upon them a screaming when during days of misfortune, a screaming wind.
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:36
			And how is that wind to the miracle lashay in the Embassy of Bihar, destroying everything by the
command of its Lord.
		
00:15:38 --> 00:16:32
			If there is ever a hurricane, a cycle that hits a particular area, what happens? Trees are uprooted
houses are blown away. Everything is destroyed. So imagine those people to the middle Kula Shea in
the amblyopia everything that that went came across it destroyed ruined it finished it including
men, women, children, their animals, their properties or buildings, everything they had made picking
it up throwing it up in the air destroying it for us but who so they became les euro it could not be
seen a llama Sakina who except for their homes in the morning what was left of these people nothing
but their dwellings nothing but the area that they used to live in everything was destroyed because
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:57
			alikhan edges little Coleman would remain thus do We recompense a criminal people so all of them
were destroyed and not even one of them was spared and how could they if buildings are destroyed
trees huge massive trees are picked up and destroyed within minutes then if a wind is blowing
constantly for seven nights eight days you think a person can survive
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:00
			How is it possible
		
00:17:01 --> 00:17:51
			inside the house is six to eight we learn what I'm doing for overly cool video and solve certain
ideas idea as for our they were destroyed by a screaming violent wind so haha Liam several alien
with ammonia to Yemen who Suma which Allah imposed upon them for seven nights and eight days in
succession. seven nights eight days in succession, it was blowing continuously. And then what
happened further all coma, Fie has solid. So you would see the people there in fallen, under whom
are jasmine and how we are as if there were hollow trunks of palm trees. Because these people are
very mighty in the physical sense doll huge people. So when they were laying dead, it was as though
		
00:17:51 --> 00:18:10
			trunks had fallen trunks of palm trees for helldorado membaca. Then do you see of them any remains?
Any person? Do you see of them? Who has survived? No. and have the properties they had? The wealth
they had? Do you see any remnants of that? Hardly anything.
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:41
			If you think about it, the other bearish nations, for example, the people of their own, the people
of the mood, do we see their remnants? We see many of them. But when it comes to the people of art,
hardly anything, hardly anything. And some say that nothing, literally nothing Allah subhanaw taala
says over here that in the morning for us bajo la jolla, Illa Misaki. Know, nothing could be seen
except for their homes, and even that eventually finished.
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:58
			Whereas they were so mighty that Allah says allender Okay, follow buka biard Illuminati very mad
allottee. Let me walk me through how I felt that they were so mighty. They had no one who was like
them in any way. But we see that nothing of them was left. Nothing of them was left.
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:29
			So they were extremely successful in worldly terms. But all of that came to nothing. And how did it
come to nothing? By the punishment that was sent upon them, and what was his punishment? It was a
wind that came and destroyed them. Now in regions in areas where rain is scarce, it hardly ever
rains. What happens when it does rain? People become extremely happy, isn't it?
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:35
			So similarly, these people also they were very happy when they saw this cloud approaching them.
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:38
			kalu Heather
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:59
			Tirana. But we see that the Prophet sallallahu Sallam whenever he would see clouds approaching, he
would have a very different reaction. Typically people rejoice. But the Prophet sallallahu sallam,
he would react very differently. I should only learn her She said, I never saw the Messenger of
Allah fully laughing. So
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:22
			I could see his entire mouth and the back of his mouth. And in particular, he mentioned was the
EULA, which is the piece of flesh that hangs the back of the throat. So she said that I never saw
him laughing that I could see that piece of flesh. Just imagine, he would smile. He would only
smile. And if he would laugh, he wouldn't laugh with his mouth, completely open.
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:37
			And she added that when Allah's Messenger saw clouds or wind, whenever he saw clouds or wind, that
would reflect on his face, meaning you could see the discomfort, the uneasiness on his face.
		
00:20:39 --> 00:21:19
			So she asked him, or last messenger, when the people see clouds, they become happy, hoping that they
bring them rain. But I noticed that when you see them, this pleasure, discomfort that appears on
your face. So Allah messenger sallallahu Sallam replied, or Arusha, what would guarantee to me that
they do not bring punishment? How do you know? What if these clouds are bringing punishment? What
guarantee? Can you give me that these clouds that are approaching are not bringing punishment? Some
nations have been punished with wind and seeing the punishment approaching them, a nation once said,
had already done
		
00:21:21 --> 00:21:27
			the people odd What did they say? This is a cloud that is going to bring rain on us.
		
00:21:28 --> 00:21:32
			So when the prophet SAW the listener would see clouds approaching wind blowing,
		
00:21:33 --> 00:21:34
			he would become afraid.
		
00:21:36 --> 00:21:40
			He would become afraid that you never know what if this is a punishment from Allah.
		
00:21:41 --> 00:21:48
			And we also have to be careful. This is why we see that when there's thunder, when there's
lightning, what are we supposed to do? Make the
		
00:21:49 --> 00:22:20
			same similarly when there is fierce wind that is blowing What do we do we start complaining, isn't
it? Or we start rejoicing. But this is not a time to complain or rejoice. This is a time to reflect
on your actions. This is a time to become fearful of Allah seek His forgiveness, because that one
wind alone is sufficient to destroy many people, many lives. We also learned from Sahih Muslim that
I showed the learner she said that when the wind blew the Prophet sallallahu Sallam he would make
Dora
		
00:22:21 --> 00:22:26
			and what do I would he made? He would say Allahumma inni Luca Hydra or her
		
00:22:27 --> 00:22:29
			will hire Murphy her.
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:58
			So we should memorize this drug because this is some of the profits that a lot of times recorded in
Sahih Muslim I should have known her she said his wife said that whenever the wind blew this is
there are the profits are a lot of selling would make that Allahumma inni iluka, higher or higher or
higher. My fee her that Oh Allah I asked you have it's good. And the good that it contains, will
hire Rama or sila to be he and the good that it has been sent with.
		
00:23:00 --> 00:23:29
			What are you becoming Sherry her and I seek refuge in You from its evil. We're Sherry Murphy her and
the evil that it contains, we shall remain or sila to be and the evil with which it has been sent.
It's not a difficult. Aloma eneas iluka hi raha hai Rama fi here wilhelma lucilla to be what are all
the become in Sharia was Sherry Murphy her washer Rima
		
00:23:31 --> 00:24:08
			and she added that if the sky became cloudy, his color would change. He would exit enter, come in
leave, and when it rained, then he would relax. That until it was windy until it was windy, the wind
is blowing continuously fiercely. And it's just cloudy there is no rain. The profits are a lot of
sun, it would be nervous, he would come in he would go outside, you could see the tension on his
face, you could see the worry on his face. And then when it started raining, then he would relax
that okay, this cloud this wind it has brought the right amount of a loss parameter.
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:27
			And we see that the people of Makkah they're constantly demanding punishment. And when a person
reflects on his own actions, when a person acknowledges his own mistakes, realizes his own
shortcomings, then he doesn't need to think about other people. Then he's worried whenever he sees
something like this
		
00:24:29 --> 00:24:39
			so make it a habit as well. Right this there are somewhere shared with your family members. And
whenever it's windy, cloudy, make this because you never know
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:52
			Allahumma inni iluka Hi raha we're higher on our fee ha ha ha Rama whoo See, let's be where are we
coming? Shall we have Where shall we Murphy her? washer Lima will say that we
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:59
			what are called McCann now whom? Allah subhanaw taala says that we had certainly established them
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:10
			Who the people of odd, we had certainly established them. FEMA in that which is a mechanical fee.
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:14
			We have not established you in
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:41
			meaning we established them in dystonia. We gave them strength. We gave them firmness, in terms of
wealth, in terms of their physical mind, their physical strength. We established them so well, that
we have not established you in that way. The way they were wealthy, you are not wealthy.
		
00:25:42 --> 00:25:55
			The way they were mighty, you are not mighty. The way they were strong, you are not strong. What are
the Makana home fever imechanic comfy. Over here, it gives a meaning of not
		
00:25:57 --> 00:26:37
			what your alella home and we had made for them, someone hearing what elbasan and vision will have
either and also hearts. It's not these people were blind, deaf, unable to understand No, they were
very intelligent, when it comes to worldly sense. They had faculties of reasoning of perception,
they had hearing they had sights they had hearts, they could see, listen, reflect, understand. But
from a ohana on home summer home, what a risotto home, whatever, either to home mean shade, but
their hearing their vision, their hearts, they did not avail them at all. They did not benefit from
them.
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:45
			It can be a delay, when they used to reject the verses of Allah.
		
00:26:46 --> 00:27:33
			They had intelligence but their intelligence was of no use. Why? Because they used to argue with the
ayatollah reject the ayatollah refused to accept them, debate with the messenger dispute with him.
Instead of accepting, they rejected. So their faculties they were of no use to the well how could
the American will be Yes Does he own and that which they use to market mean the punishment that
encircled them? How do they market the punishment by saying, the Navy military do not bring us what
you threaten us. So that same punishment that they mocked that it encircled them? What do we see
over here? that the people of art, they were very mighty, very strong compared to many other
		
00:27:33 --> 00:27:36
			nations, including the people of Makkah.
		
00:27:37 --> 00:28:23
			They were very mighty. What did they have these people they had physical strength, financial
strength. In total out of 69, we learn what guru who the LSM said to them what Guru is Jalla Cunha,
I'm embarrassed to call me Newton was the cornfield hockey buster, that remember when he made you
successors, after the people of North and he increased you in stature extensively, physically, they
were very mighty. They were tall, huge people. And this was something unique to them. Financially,
they were very strong. In sort of the shadow 133 134 a mother can be an arm and we're Bernina
Jeanette, and where are you? They had many people and also properties, animals, resources, they had
		
00:28:23 --> 00:29:03
			everything. And since they had a lot of wealth, they constructed huge buildings, monuments as well,
as we have learned in sort of Sharla 128 to 130. That afternoon avicularia in iron therabreath hoon.
Do you construct on every elevation assign amusing yourself? What does he do in an Asana and our
local de Lune and you take for yourself palaces and fortresses that you might abide eternally
worried about Washington, Washington, Jabari, when you attack you attack as tyrants. So when Can
people attack violently when they have a lot of strength? Right military might.
		
00:29:04 --> 00:29:11
			So they had military might, they were so wealthy that they built houses that they didn't need to
live in
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:28
			a balloon, as we call it here in Ireland, our baton, if you remember that the seat of this ayah that
they used to build houses, multiple houses, right? or multiple structures just for the purpose of
display, just to amuse themselves. They didn't need to live in them. It was beyond their need.
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:37
			This is the kind of wealth they had. This is the kind of power they had the manpower they had. money
they had.
		
00:29:38 --> 00:29:42
			But what do we see? All of that came to nothing.
		
00:29:43 --> 00:29:59
			And it wasn't that these people were not intelligent. No, they were very intelligent. Allah had
given them intelligence. But they didn't use their intelligence. They didn't benefit from their
intelligence, all of their mind. It was
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:02
			invested in what? Just Indonesia,
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:10
			when it came to the Ayat of Allah, did he do, they used to reject they used to refuse to accept.
		
00:30:11 --> 00:30:36
			So we see that if a person does not use his faculties to understand the Ayat of Allah to accept the
ayatollah, then it says, though, he doesn't understand, he doesn't have reasoning. And this is a
great lesson for us that if we do not use our hearing, vision and hearts for the Hereafter, then no
matter how much we excel in terms of dunya, we are failures, we are failures.
		
00:30:37 --> 00:30:49
			A person has to use the faculties that Allah has given him for what I can offer the dean, if he
achieves everything of this dunya. But he doesn't have faith, that he is a big failure.
		
00:30:50 --> 00:30:56
			Because the people have had everything of this dunya but no Dean, but look at the loss that they
suffered.
		
00:30:57 --> 00:31:10
			And we think intelligence is that when you can build great houses. And when you have a lot of
worldly education, when you're successful in worldly terms, and you have a lot of wealth. This is
what success is this is not what success is.
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:38
			We learned that with the death of the learner when he was in Damascus and the Muslims, they had
conquered many places by that time. And when they had conquered many places, you can imagine the
amount of wealth that had come in the Muslim households, Muslim families. And it's only natural that
when people get wealth, they end up enjoying it, isn't it? When they get blessings, they end up
enjoying them even if they don't want to they get consumed by them.
		
00:31:39 --> 00:31:48
			So that they aren't who he used to find it very, very difficult to find people spending their time
building houses just enjoying their dunya and neglecting them.
		
00:31:50 --> 00:31:53
			Their indulgence in dunya it bothered him a lot.
		
00:31:54 --> 00:32:05
			The people have odd they have so much, isn't it so but there dounia avail them nothing. So Buddha
Dotto did I know he could not tolerate the fact that Muslims were indulging Indonesia so much.
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:55
			So he said that one day he went out in public and he addressed to people and he said yeah, let the
mosque or people of the mosque. alotta hewn Don't you have any shyness? Don't you feel any shame?

00:35:00 --> 00:35:01
			It's nothing.
		
00:35:02 --> 00:35:18
			We spend our lives collecting things, so many of them and busying ourselves with the blessings of
Allah, forgetting that after some time, these things will have no value. What you treasure so much,
it's trash in somebody else's eyes.
		
00:35:19 --> 00:35:23
			What you value so much, it's garbage in the eyes of somebody else.
		
00:35:24 --> 00:35:34
			you're collecting it hoarding it, keeping it spending so much time on it, using your mind spending
your energies on it. But after some time, it doesn't have any value.
		
00:35:35 --> 00:35:49
			Isn't it amazing how sometimes you buy something very expensive, a nice table, and you go put it in
your living room. And there comes a child banging it with a hard metal piece scratching it, scraping
it off, chipping it.
		
00:35:50 --> 00:35:54
			Something that's so valuable in your sight is only like a drum in the eyes of a child.
		
00:35:55 --> 00:36:01
			It's the same whether you bought it from a very fancy store, or you got it from a garage sale.
		
00:36:02 --> 00:36:06
			Isn't it? The same for that child doesn't make a difference.
		
00:36:07 --> 00:36:25
			So is it worth it? That our person uses all of his energies only for this dunya the people have had
a lot in terms of intelligence, mind reasoning, but everything they had was invested in the dunya
and it got left in the dunya. And over time it lost value even
		
00:36:27 --> 00:36:31
			that imagine what does it amounted to the harm to deliver
		
00:36:32 --> 00:36:42
			something that's so precious, that they didn't want to leave. They preferred it over their Dean and
ophira but it was not more than to them.
		
00:36:43 --> 00:37:07
			That's all that it came up to. So we have to be very careful that what are we spending our energies
on? What are we investing our time? What are we investing our abilities and fits justice dunia

you. Tomorrow will be like garbage for someone

Think about it, the jewelry they had the clothes they had the buildings they made. They're there

00:38:18 --> 00:38:23
			Just imagine what you make today. It doesn't even last your lifetime, isn't it?
		
00:38:24 --> 00:38:33
			What the people of the past made so strong that it's there until today? But what value does it have?
Can they enjoy it? They cannot.
		
00:38:34 --> 00:38:44
			So this dunya is not worth our time, our energies, our investment, this is not worth it. There's
something much more important than that.
		
00:38:45 --> 00:39:28
			What are called the Alekna, and we have already destroyed mahalo calm, what is around you, middle

00:39:34 --> 00:39:35
			So some of
		
00:39:37 --> 00:39:59
			the examples of the people of the past we have mentioned repeatedly in different ways why now allow
me to do your own so that they would return who does they refer to the people of Makkah, but it's
not just limited to them. It's also for us, that we also need to take a lesson. We also need to
learn from this allies presented these examples for us so that we returned
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:03
			Allah, we returned to what is more important
		
00:40:05 --> 00:40:27
			fellow learners or a home, then why did he not help them? Who and Medina Taha lumen doon Allah he
could ban and Allah, those whom they had taken besides Allah, Kuru ban and to approach him as a
means of near and as to who, to Allah, and they had taken them as Allah as gods,
		
00:40:29 --> 00:40:39
			meeting all these gods whom they used to worship, and they thought that when they worship them, they
go closer to Allah, how can these gods didn't help them when the punishment of Allah came upon them?
		
00:40:41 --> 00:40:53
			If you look at it, the people that are out whether they say that Ajay Denali that FECA Nan Li
hatena, have you come to us to turn us away from the worship of our gods, they didn't want to give
up the worship their gods.
		
00:40:54 --> 00:41:03
			So Allah says, How come their gods didn't help them? How come? Because they're not real. They're not
true.
		
00:41:04 --> 00:41:15
			And what's the belief that they have about these gods O'Bannon are banned from the roof is powerful,
but what does that mean? To bring near to approach to come near?
		
00:41:16 --> 00:41:24
			So they worship them for the purpose of urban, they worship them, in order to come closer to Allah.
		
00:41:25 --> 00:41:32
			Through their worship, they intended to come closer to Allah. And many times people do this, even
today.
		
00:41:33 --> 00:41:48
			Allah says Belleville Lutheran home, but rather they had strayed from them. Meaning these idols
these gods and they worship besides Allah, they got lost from them. They abandoned them when the
punishment came to them. They left them alone.
		
00:41:49 --> 00:41:56
			Whether liquor if go home, and that is their life, what is their life? What is their lie? Whose lie?
		
00:41:57 --> 00:42:42
			the lie of the machine? What is their lie? That these gods can help them? Or that these gods take
them closer to Allah? If they took them closer to Allah? Would Allah Sanders punishment upon them?
And if they were really gods, would they not help them? Of course, but whatever beliefs they had
about these gods What is it if with Annika if go home? woman can we have the rune and that which
they use to fabricate? Meaning This is just a fabrication, something that they have invented

00:42:44 --> 00:43:00
			There? Well, whatever they had amassed whatever they had acquired in the dunya that didn't help them
and the gods whom they used to worship, even they didn't help them. Just as the people of God,
whatever they had in the dunya didn't help them. Everything was destroyed with the wind.
		
00:43:01 --> 00:43:04
			And they're Gods even they don't know, because they're not true.

			Jamie Dimon.
		
00:46:07 --> 00:46:08
			Hola.
		
00:46:32 --> 00:46:32
			If
		
00:46:40 --> 00:46:56
			so, what did you understand that all they had in the dunya didn't help them in the end, that our
concern should not just be this dunya that this dunya should not be the only thing that we're
concerned about. Our worries should be greater than that.
		
00:46:57 --> 00:47:26
			That when we use our mind, our hearing our vision to understand this dunya why because we have to
survive here, then is it not necessary that we use our mind our hearing, our understanding our
vision, for the purpose of the accident, because we also have to survive there? Is it not necessary?
Of course it is. Because many times we put a lot of our brains to dystonia, but we don't put it for
the purpose of alpha.
		
00:47:27 --> 00:48:02
			When it comes to school, when it comes to university when it comes to doing something of this dunya
we try to figure everything out. We spend time, but when it comes to the deen, then we're content
with average, we're content with just passing. And I am Muslim, so I should be okay. Imagine he was
a prophet of Allah. yet. He was worried. Being the Prophet of Allah. He was worried if anybody had a
reason to not feel fear it was him. Because he did her brother. Why? out of gratitude, right? And we
do or other Why?
		
00:48:03 --> 00:48:06
			Because we are obligated, and we don't go beyond that.
		
00:48:08 --> 00:48:15
			Imagine he did extra bother out of gratitude. But still, when wind blew, he became afraid.
		
00:48:16 --> 00:48:24
			So we should never think that we're the exception and nothing's going to happen to us and we should
be fine. We should always remain in fear of almost
		
00:48:26 --> 00:48:46
			always thinking it all goes back to the gospel. hikma, Takashi Attila the Prophet sallallahu Sallam
Kashi, Allah and our non recognition of Allah subhana wa tada and the truth of things. That is why
we are negligent, who he loves, we're doing sins and yet when he does, he was at the best of action
then yet he was always worrying.
		
00:48:47 --> 00:48:50
			That the fear of Allah that is what leads a person to right action.
		
00:48:52 --> 00:48:52
			Anything else?
		
00:48:55 --> 00:49:38
			I'm thinking of Prophet Muhammad Rasul Allah is Allah. So Allah is a great husband and he's a great
prophet and he is my Habibi. You know, so hello. And I think about him. He's a prophet, and he will
go to Ghana, but he still is worried. He's teaching, it could come to us. So for us how we learn
this, how we teach our kids, when we see snow, or when we see wind, we should also react not by
yourself sitting in the room and crying, no, we should show our kids also, this could come to
everybody so our kids can learn in future how to protect themselves that we see. It wasn't just that
he was afraid in his heart. And he kept that fear inside. It was visible on his face, he would keep
		
00:49:38 --> 00:49:44
			going in and out in and out. He was restless, and his family members noticed that
		
00:49:46 --> 00:49:59
			they noticed it. But sometimes what happens we feel things where we just keep it to ourselves. We
don't share it. We have to share to the other people can also learn. Imagine his concern was so much
that I should have asked him but what
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:04
			The reason why do you become like this? She noticed it.
		
00:50:05 --> 00:50:22
			And the thing is that when a person truly feels something that it comes in his face as well, he
can't hide it. So this is how he taught those who are around him as well. Not that he lectured them
all the time, but he showed them with his behavior. Here's what leads to action.
		
00:50:23 --> 00:50:24
			Let's listen to the recitation
		
00:51:35 --> 00:51:37
			udimi
