AI: Summary ©

The speakers discuss the use of words like "brackery," "will" and "will" in religion to encourage actions, but emphasize the importance of learning from actions and avoiding evil. They stress the need to stay strong and stay positive, pray and not just pray- much, and hold one's own back when facing difficult situations. The importance of praying and not just pray- everything is emphasized, as it is difficult to control one's behavior. The segment also touches on the weight of fear and the importance of praying for Islam.

00:00:01 --> 00:00:28
			Okay, let's continue the verses I in number 44. The Bani Israel they're further addressed at that
Morona NASA Bill busy what then? Sona and Fusa comb were unthemed at Lunel kita fly * Loon, the
Bani Israel especially their scholars now they're being addressed that do you order righteousness to
the people and forget yourselves while you recite the Scripture? will you not reason then
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:45
			at that Morona that Marana Hamza me bruh. I'm an armor is to command to order. So at that Morona do
you all order do you all give instruction to who, to a NASA people,
		
00:00:46 --> 00:01:16
			you order the people to do what Bill busy with the piety with bear, rah rah. Bear is used for good
deeds, righteousness by IoT, and from the same root is the word above value, blah, blah, blah, okay,
from the same root, Bell raw with a shutter on it bar. And bar is used for land, the whole facade to
fill very well by binary opposite of sea. So land.
		
00:01:17 --> 00:02:08
			If you think about it, on a piece of land, on land in general, are there different different types
of plants, different types of trees, different shades of grass, different types of soil even?
There's so much variety. So Bear is understood as good deeds, but not just a one kind, but a variety
and many. So you tell the people to perform good deeds, not just one not just do but many and you
tell them to do different different types of good deeds. Whereas at the same time, what then Sona
unphysical and you forget yourselves then Sona known seen yet NESEA this Yan, to forget that a
person knows about something but he forgets at that time. Or Miss Yan is also used for ignoring
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:41
			because when you have forgotten something, you're not going to pay attention to it when you're
ignoring something you're not going to pay attention to it. So then Sona unphysical mu forget
yourselves and unforce is deplore love naps. So in other words, you go on telling people to do good
things, but you yourself, don't do it. You tell other people to do good, but you don't do it
yourself. You don't practice what you preach. You say something else, and you do something else. You
say something else, and you do something else? What then Sona unphysical.
		
00:02:42 --> 00:03:19
			And we learned that the Bani Israel this was something that was very common in them, especially
amongst the religious folk, the religious people, their scholars, because they had all the knowledge
and they would tell the people, this is right, this is wrong. This is what you should do. This is
what you should not do. But at the same time, they will do the worst of things. Are you all familiar
with the story of Santa Ana Pharisee. So the Allahu anhu, how he converted, how he was in Persia. He
was a fire worshiper as a child, and then he came across a group of Christians were worshipping
together. So he was very impressed by them. And he felt that that was the truth. So he left his
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:58
			family, he left his ways, and he went with those Christians, and he left Persia and went elsewhere
so that he could practice Christianity with them. And he remained with one priest after another
after another, why in order to learn Christianity from them in order to practice in order to be a
righteous man. And eventually, he was coming to Medina where he was sold as a slave to a Jewish man,
because he was going with a group of people. And why was it going to Medina because the last priests
that he was with, he told him that you go to the slant, you go to the city, because I believe that
last messenger is coming there very soon, the time has come. So this is why he was going there. So
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:38
			anyway, we learn about tonight and fantasy that he said that while he was with one of the priests,
he was learning from him. And he was practicing, you know, Christianity with him, he was close to
him, this priest, what he would do is that he would tell people give charity, and the people will
bring charity. And you know what he would do with that money? He would hoard it, he would keep it
with himself. And he would not give it to the rest of the people, the needy, the poor. And so my
virus, he saw that himself, and he knew that he was a corrupt man. So when this priest when he died,
when he passed away, the people were very sad, and you know, they were crying and everything. So
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:54
			somehow Pharisee told them that look at this man, he was a priest, but you know what he did in
reality, he commanded you to give charity, but he hoarded all that wealth. So this was something
that was common amongst the Jewish leaders as well as a Christian leaders, take the money and hold
it with themselves.
		
00:04:55 --> 00:05:00
			Has anyone read the poem, perhaps in school Bishop Hatto? I remember as a child we
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:39
			learned about the sperm Bishop pattern. He was a bishop and he would hoard wealth. And he hoarded so
much well, that people were hungry. They came to get money from him to get food from him but he
called them into a barn that come here, I'll give you food. And he said all of them on fire, he
killed all of them. And then it is said that how so many rats they came into his house and you know,
they ate him up alive and you it's a story, but it tells you about what they used to do. Because the
story is a reflection of what happens. He was a bishop, not an ordinary man. So anyway, this was
something that was common amongst the Jewish leaders as well as a Christian leaders that they would
		
00:05:39 --> 00:06:16
			tell people do good, do good, do good. But at the same time, they were the worst criminals behind
the doors behind the scenes, the worst criminals. So Allah subhanaw taala is reprimanding them over
here that you tell people to do good and you forget to do good yourselves? What then Sona
unphysical. As if you don't need to do good. And what do you call this kind of attitude, hypocrisy
being double faced? And this kind of attitude? Allah subhanaw taala hates because this attitude is
of what deception that a person is deceiving other people he's trying to deceive Allah, but in
reality, who does he deceive himself? What then Sona and Musa comb.
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:50
			And we learned that at the time of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam as well, there was a young child
who was Jewish and he used to serve the prophets of Allah is Allah, you can think of it like a
servant, okay, perhaps he was hired or for whatever reason, he would come and work for the prophets
of Allah. So this boy, he became extremely ill and he was at the verge of dying. So when he was at
the verge of dying, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam went to see him and the Prophet sallallahu Sallam
urged him at that time, believe, just say, Allah, Allah Illallah believe, and the boy was a little
hesitant because his father who was also Jewish, obviously was standing next to him. So the child
		
00:06:50 --> 00:07:30
			the boy, he looked at his father, as if seeking His approval, and the father told him up there about
Qasim obey I will cause him meaning the prophets of Allah, obey Him and believe. So the boy, he
said, The Kalama he pronounced the kalam and he became a believer, and then he passed away to the
Prophet sallallahu sallam was very happy that he was able to save one person from the hellfire. What
do we see in the story? That the Father Himself does not believe? But what is he telling his child I
believe? So you tell people to do good but you don't do it yourselves? What is this hypocrisy? What
are these double standards at that moon and NASA will be within Sona Infocomm and you're not doing
		
00:07:30 --> 00:08:17
			this out of ignorance. Allah says we're undaunted, Luenell keytab and you recite the Scripture, that
Luna that Luna, the lamb Well, tilava and tilava is recitation in this word is specifically used for
the reading the recitation of divine Scriptures, because the way divine Scriptures are read the way
they are recited, other texts are not read like that. The way you read the Quran, do you read other
texts like that as well? Do you know we say Alhamdulillah, your biller al Amin, do we say all
praises to Allah the Lord of the Worlds? We don't do that. And we don't focus on every letter that
it has to be pronounced properly and correctly. And you have to pause at the right places. No, but
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:45
			when you read the Quran, you read it with tilava. So tilava is different from Pyrrha. There are is
just reading, but Tila is recitation that is only for divine Scriptures. Okay, so what until and you
all that Luenell kitab. You read the book, you recite the book, which book is this, the Torah, the
Scripture that they had. So in other words, you are knowledgeable,
		
00:08:46 --> 00:09:15
			you are knowledgeable, you know the deen you know what you're supposed to do and what you're not
supposed to do. You are more knowledgeable than the rest of the people. But despite having more
knowledge, you do less. You tell people to do good, but you don't do it yourself and you have more
knowledge than them. So the rest of the people they would be in a way better than you. They don't
know much but at least they do something you know so much but you do nothing.
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:59
			What is a chore to us that the state of an Olim who is later Amil meaning a knowledgeable person
who's later on with meaning who doesn't do much action who doesn't perform much is worse, worse than
a giant person than an ignorant person. We take a lot of pride in having a lot of knowledge I've
taken the field courses have taken earlier courses I've taken on courses, these courses, I'm trying
to get my ijazah in this my Jazza in that. I've studied this classical text that classical texts
were very proud about these things, but we should look at our actions as well. Because we look down
on other people who don't have much knowledge of the deen but you know what, even if they know less,
		
00:09:59 --> 00:09:59
			perhaps they're
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:10
			Doing more than you so ultimate Luenell Kitab you read the book? If anyone is expected to do more,
who is he? The one who knows more?
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:45
			But you don't do it well until the clonal Kitab Allah questions a fella dark saloon Do you not
reason do not use your mind. There are pillow nine cough lamb alkyl intellect and there are kala
literally means to tie to tie a knot. You may have heard of the Hadith in which a man came up with
this camel and he did not tie the camel and the Prophet sallallahu Sallam asked him that what about
your camel? He said, You know I trust on Allah that Allah will keep my camel here again we will not
go anywhere. So what are the prophets of Allah Salam say to him, era call what our
		
00:10:46 --> 00:11:30
			ears call iron Koffler meaning tie the camel first and then trust on Allah. So our color means what
to tie to join one thing with the other to connect the two together. And if you think about it,
Oracle our reason what does it do? It connects the dots it connects the bits and pieces of
information that you have all together. The information that a person has is not fragmented anymore,
but rather he's able to join all of it together. This is what Oracle does. This is what intellect
reasoning does. And also if you think about it, Oracle should connect knowledge with action. If a
person has reason he is thinking, then his knowledge should be connected with what his action. Allah
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:40
			says Allah dark alone. Do you not use reason? Do you not use your mind as if what is wrong with you?
You're telling people to do good and you do nothing yourselves? What do we learn this idea
		
00:11:41 --> 00:12:33
			about the foolishness and the evil nature of the person who tells other to do good, but he does not
do it himself. And remember that this act is hated to Allah subhanaw taala Allah subhanaw taala
hates this action. Allah tells us in the Quran limit Hakuna Matata for our loan limit Hakuna Matata
for Why do you say what you don't do? Why do you tell others to do something when you don't do it
yourself? Cabo Mactan are in the law, he under kolomela of our grid is hatred with Allah for what
that you say what you do not do. So when a person has this behavior when a person does this, then
Allah subhanaw taala hates that action coupled doctor, he becomes very upset, very angry. And we see
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:51
			that this is something that is punishable even this is a great crime. But you tell other people do
good but you don't do it yourselves. How do we know the Prophet sallallahu sallam said on the night
of mera Lodge, I passed by some people whose lips were being cut with scissors made a fire
		
00:12:52 --> 00:13:35
			because he was shown a lot of the unseen as well. And part of that was the punishments that are to
be given to people and the rewards that are to be given to people. So on the night of the ascension,
Abbas was on people whose lives were being cut with scissors made a fire. So I said who are you
mean, what's going on? Why? Why is this punishment being given? And they replied, we used to command
others to do good and refuse to do it ourselves. We used to forbid others from evil, but we did it
ourselves. We told people do good, but we never did it ourselves. We told people don't do bad, but
we did it ourselves. It's a great crime. A huge punishment after death before the day of judgment.
		
00:13:35 --> 00:14:13
			And even after the day of judgment in hellfire. The prophets on a lot is that um said a man will be
brought on the Day of Resurrection and he will be thrown into the fire. His intestines will fall out
and he will continue to circle where in the Hellfire pulling them behind him. Just as a donkey goes
around a bull walking round and round to the zoo. He will be running around in the Hellfire with his
intestines trailing behind him and the people of the fire will go to that man and ask him what
happened to you? How come you're here? Did you not use to command us to do righteous deeds and
forbid us from committing evil? You are the one who used to tell us do good and don't do evil. He
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:54
			will say yes, I used to enjoin righteousness, but refrain from performing righteousness. And I used
to forbid you to perform evil while I myself did it. I told you not to do bad and I did it myself.
We should become very, very careful because as we are learning the deen as we're increasing in our
knowledge, many times what happens if we find other people making mistakes? And we tell them don't
do this. Don't listen to this. Don't watch that. Don't say this. Get up and pray. But at the same
time, our actions contradict our words. Many times it happens that parents will tell their children
don't listen to music. Get up and press on. But at the same time those parents what are they doing?
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:59
			The same thing. An older sibling will tell a younger sibling don't do this. Don't
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			Do that and they're doing it themselves.
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:06
			Double standards and we see the children they don't even listen anymore.
		
00:15:07 --> 00:15:10
			Because your actions they speak louder than words.
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:33
			Particularly this is about religious matters. But it doesn't mean that we don't care about other
things. Like for example, if you tell somebody don't bother me, and then you go on bothering them,
this is also not right. This is also having double standards. So we should become careful in our day
to day matters. And especially with regards to religious matters,
		
00:15:35 --> 00:15:40
			what's their you know, but somebody was salah, seek help through patients and prayer.
		
00:15:41 --> 00:16:13
			Is it difficult to do good? Is it for example, we learned about karma to Salah establishing the
prayer, which means that you pray at the right time in the right way giving it its proper, do you?
Is it difficult to do that? Honestly, I'm asking you, is it difficult to pray Salah properly? For
most of us it is a challenge. Because acaba de Sala includes concentrating in prayer fearing Allah
Subhana Allah and a prayer. We tell other people have who have who. And there we are standing. And
all of a sudden we're thinking about what happened at the grocery store.
		
00:16:14 --> 00:16:53
			That I should have bought that and left that. I should have cooked it this way. Not that way. We're
human beings, right? It happens. Similarly without other people, or we make a promise with ourselves
that we learned about the Manasa tea, that what to whom I'd have an early will be my can we make the
moon and we make a promise to ourselves never going to lie. I'm not going to break any promise any
commitment whatsoever. But we're human beings, you make a promise, you make a firm result, but then
you slip. I'm not saying it's okay to do it. But I'm saying it happens without you even wanting it.
Because many times it happens that when a person learns the deen, they're afraid to tell other
		
00:16:53 --> 00:17:24
			people about it. Why? Because they're afraid that I'm not doing it myself perfectly. So how can I
tell other people? Have you ever experienced that? The thing is that we are weak human beings to do
good. We have to strive to stay away from wrong again, we have to strive and we can never ever reach
a level where we can say yes, I am perfect now and I can tell other people, no, we can never ever
reach that level. And if somebody claims that they're lying,
		
00:17:26 --> 00:18:08
			or they are thinking wrong about themselves, they're being foolish. So we can never ever reach that
level. But Allah subhanaw taala gives us a solution over here. Seek help of Allah, through patients
and prayer to do what to do good to stay away from evil. Because remember who is being addressed
over here the alumna of the Bani Israel? Their scholars? Are they being told that you should stop
telling people to do good because you don't do it yourself? No, keep telling them and also do it
yourself. Now how do you make sure you're doing it because you're weak as well seek Allah's help.
Was there enough as somebody was salah? Is there no. Rain? Well, noon we learned earlier Yeah.
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:57
			Cannot will do. What yakka mystery is Donna yesterday news to seek help own rain well known help. So
seek the help of Allah subhanaw taala with regards to all of your affairs, but especially in the
matters of the dean, especially in the matters of the dean, how should you seek His help? By doing
nothing? No. The subsidy with patients was salah and prayer. Somebody said the rock what a sober
mean. Can you describe patients to me. So for example, at a time of hardship, a person does not
complain but he has a positive attitude. To be consistently hopeful, to be consistently positive to
be consistently staying away from bed. Any other way that you can describe patients, when you're
		
00:18:57 --> 00:19:15
			extremely sad, still have faith and contentment in your heart that whatever Allah has decided is
best for me. Do not lose temper. Sober literally means have some naps helps us to control yourself.
Self control, in other words is what sub
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:58
			and remember that somewhere is in three ways. First of all at times of hardship, when there is a
difficulty that you're experiencing, what do you want to do? What does your knifes want to do?
scream, yell, cry, complain. Give up. That's what we want to do. What is so good at that time? Drill
yourself. Don't get angry. Don't start yelling. Don't start screaming. Don't show any negative
reaction. This is what controlling yourself. Secondly, solver is also over doing good. You're trying
to do something good, but it gets a bit challenging. So you say I want to give up no summer. Keep
doing it. Keep doing it. For example, we learned about joining relationships with their relatives.
		
00:19:59 --> 00:20:00
			Is that a good deed?
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:17
			Oh, yes, it's a good deed. Now you're being nice to them every time you call your relative, this is
something nasty to you. And you said, That's it last phone call, not calling them again, I've had
enough, what is solid at that time, be consistent with that good deed.
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:47
			Be patient, don't give up, keep doing it. Thirdly solver is also in staying away from Marcia and
staying away from acts of disobedience. For example, you tell yourself, I'm not going to listen to
music, you make up your mind, I'm not going to do this again, I'm not going to listen again. But
then you look at your iPod. And you just happened to go on the playlist, and you just happened to go
on a particular track. And you want to hit play.
		
00:20:49 --> 00:21:34
			What is software at that time, hold yourself back. Don't hit play, don't Tapley sub control
yourself, hold yourself back. So you understand what sub it is now. Primarily it is to hold yourself
together to control yourself at a time of difficulty at the time when doing good at the time when
your attempt to do something wrong. So it is to stand firm. In other words, so Allah subhanaw taala
says, what's their enormous slavery, you're trying to do? Good. Seek help how by being patient,
don't give up, you're tempted to do something wrong, hold yourself back. Meaning you have to put in
the effort. If you want to do good, you can't just do good like that. What do we want, you know that
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:45
			one day will come when my son I will become perfect that one day will come when I will start praying
regularly in property and I will have no difficulty. You know what if you keep wishing for that one
day, it will never come.
		
00:21:46 --> 00:22:31
			You have to strive, you have to put in efforts in order to get there in order to become like that.
Similarly, we think one day will come when I will stop listening to music, when how you someday a
miracle will happen. You have to do something, you have to strive to get there. It won't happen just
like that. Because Allah is telling you to seek help through patience. What do we do seek help, by
sitting on our hands. That's what we do. Whereas we're told, be patient you have to do something was
there you know, with slavery. And then secondly was there he knew how else was Salah and also
through prayer, meeting when you are in some difficulty, then ask Allah for help perform the salah
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:32
			and seek Allah's help.
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:43
			And we see that the way of the Prophet sallallahu sallam was like this, that whenever he encountered
any difficulty, he would run to pray. He would hasten to pay Salah
		
00:22:44 --> 00:23:24
			and you can try it yourself as well. You're about to do something challenging something difficult.
Take time out, to pray to nothing even and the work will become much easier for you. Because Allah
subhanaw taala has helped will be there. You know many times we say yes, I make dua. Yes, I will
pray but we don't actually do it. We intend to but we don't actually do it. We you have to do it.
And when you will do it you will see the baraka you will see Allah subhanaw taala has helped. So
what's there you know, the slavery was salah, but Allah says we're in the hat and indeed it What
does hair refer to the salah? Indeed, the Salah is laka Beulah tone Kabira calf bow ah, Allahu
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:41
			Akbar. What does it mean? Greatest? So great. Kabira one that is great. We're in the Halacha Vera.
Indeed, it is very great. And what it means by grid is that it's very heavy and burdensome and
difficult.
		
00:23:42 --> 00:24:05
			Meeting Salah is very heavy on some people. It's very difficult for them to pray, except for who
Illa are the lush green, except for those people who have who Sure. Kashi Rena is a Florida ha
Cheryl ha sheen Iein from the word who Sure. Have you heard of the word ashore? L for sure fistula?
		
00:24:06 --> 00:24:51
			What does it mean by who? Sure. Who sure is basically humility, fear. It is such fear, genuine fear
that also affects your body. What does it mean by that? If a person is standing in prayer, and he
says, Yeah, I fear Allah. I mean, he's thinking in his head, yes, I'm supposed to be fearing the
last panel right now. But at the same time, he looks here, looks there skips a surah and then
quickly goes down. Rick, who gets up quickly does not perform the recall or any part of the solar
property is that fear? Would you say that is fear? No, but if you ask them, Do you have fear of
Allah and praying? Perhaps they will say yes. What is for sure. Who sure is genuine fear, real fear.
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:59
			Such fear that will also affect your body that when you're standing, you don't stand up arrogantly
but you stand
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:36
			with like a bent posture, with your shoulders bent with humility, and that your entire body is
focused as well. Not that you're fixing your pants from here and you're fixing your shirt from there
and you're moving and you're scratching and you're pulling and you're tugging and you're doing this
and that. That's not cool. Sure. So harsh. You're in our hoo, ha Shireen are those who when they
pray, what is their focus? The greatness of Allah subhanaw taala. They realize the greatness of the
meeting that they're having, at that time, the meeting with who? Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:25:37 --> 00:26:04
			If a person is meeting an ordinary person, how will his body language be very casual. But if a
person is in a professional meeting, for example, he's being hired, he's being interviewed. How will
he be in his body language very casual. No, he'll be very, very careful about how he picks up a
thing how he puts it down, and he will apologize it everything. So particular we become because we
realize the importance of that meeting.
		
00:26:06 --> 00:26:24
			Similarly harsher is the one whose focus is what is who Allah subhanaw taala. He's afraid because of
that, he is humble in his posture as well. So Salah is very heavy, it is very difficult except for
who the HA Shireen.
		
00:26:25 --> 00:26:34
			And you will notice that, that when you are focused in prayer, prayer becomes much easier. But when
you're distracted, then prayer becomes very, very long.
		
00:26:35 --> 00:27:12
			Isn't it amazing that when in the month of Ramadan, you go to the masjid to pray that there are some
people who are standing in the front rows and they pray from the first record to the last record.
They don't skip any in the middle. At the same time there are other kids standing at the
backgrounds, very difficult for them. Why? What's the difference? Is it just a difference in age?
No, it's the difference in fear. One has fear of Allah realizes that they need to pray. They need to
beg Allah for forgiveness, because they see the greatness of the crimes that they have committed and
there is another person who is not fear of law. does not fear accountability in the hereafter does
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:20
			not care much. So obviously there will be a difference in their actions. So we're in the Halacha
vibrato Illa either ha Shireen.
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:50
			What is this is show to us. What does it teach us? That whenever we are facing a difficulty, we have
to do two things. Patience, don't give up. And secondly, prayer. Praise Allah. The Prophet
sallallahu sallam said that whoever tries to be patient, Allah makes him patient. Whoever tries to
be patient, Allah makes impatient, you have to put in the effort. You stay firm, Allah who give you
the view. And when you pray, Allah will also help you.
		
00:27:51 --> 00:28:05
			And then we also heard in this ayah, that good deeds are difficult to perform, except for who those
who fear Allah. When a person has fear of Allah, then performance of good deeds becomes easier for
him.
		
00:28:06 --> 00:28:49
			Who are Allah Shireen? How else does Allah describe them? They are Alladhina those people who use
the noona there are certain yellow Nunes through letters love noon, noon one, there are some words
in the Arabic language that you have completely opposite meanings. What does it mean by that, that
in certain contexts, they will give one meaning and in another context, they will give completely
opposite meaning. Why? Because of certain other words that are coming with them. So for example, the
word lung it means assumption supposition to assume something, but when the word one comes with
another, do you see an over here, yellow noona and now home when the word one comes with Anna, that
		
00:28:49 --> 00:29:42
			it means to be certain to be sure. So Alladhina Yeovil Nona, unknown though those people who are
certain that indeed they will, moolah, Kura became moolah KU, is the plural of moolah cane from the
root letters lamb Coffea lochia. Who are either local Medina local them at so malaco ones who will

and they're certain that they're going back to Allah were unknown Alayhi Raji rune, those are the
		
00:29:42 --> 00:29:59
			people who fear Allah. And those are the people who find Salah easy to see the connection between
the two verses, that those who are certain of their meeting with Allah are the ones who are harsher
in and when they're harsher in solena will be easier for them.
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:02
			performing good will become easier for them.
		
00:30:03 --> 00:30:43
			So AlLadhina eluna Anahola Caribbean or unknown Illa erode your own. And the thing is that when a
person is certain about his meeting with Allah, that he is going to stand before Allah one day and
Allah is going to question him is going to ask him about what he has done. Then he becomes careful
about every single meeting he has with his Lord. We meet Allah subhanaw, taala, five times a day
when we pray Salah Because salah is what we're talking to Allah, we're praising Allah, we're
glorifying Allah, we're seeking His help. We're seeking His protection. We're begging his
forgiveness. We're talking to Allah. This is what Salah is. So it's like a meeting, before they have
		
00:30:43 --> 00:31:20
			that final meeting with Allah, because they're very afraid of it. This is why they're conscious and
careful about every single meeting before that. This is why they're afraid in their prayer. And this
is why they concentrate in their prayer as well. A Lolita eluna Unknown Willa Cora behind or unknown

forever. Whether we prepare for that meeting, or we don't prepare for that meeting. Are we going
back to Allah? Yes, we are. Are we going to be asked, Are we going to be questioned? Yes. So we
cannot ignore this reality.
		
00:31:21 --> 00:31:23
			We can ever be negligent about it.
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:27
			We're unknown la * rune.
		
00:31:28 --> 00:31:29
			We listen to the recitation.

			Sabine be the one
		
00:31:39 --> 00:31:39
			that
		
00:31:47 --> 00:31:49
			was staring at us.
		
00:31:55 --> 00:31:56
			Tune in
		
00:31:57 --> 00:31:58

00:32:00 --> 00:32:01
			Lavina you're
		
00:32:02 --> 00:32:02
			gonna
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:07
			be more than
		
00:32:09 --> 00:32:10
			here last year.
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:29
			When we know that we have to return to Allah. And if we are certain about the meeting with Allah
subhanaw taala. Then what does it mean? What should we do? If we are going back to Allah, we are
going to meet him. He is going to question us he is going to ask us then what should we do today?
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:32
			perform proper actions.
		
00:32:33 --> 00:32:40
			seek forgiveness, that whichever prayer we pray, we should make sure that we pray properly as if
it's the last one.
		
00:32:41 --> 00:32:50
			Basically, it means that we must have fear of Allah subhanaw taala. Because when we know we're going
to meet him, we should be afraid.
		
00:32:51 --> 00:33:38
			Think about it. If you have to go meet any important person and what Allahu Allah just an example to
understand the concept. If you have to meet somebody important. Are you afraid? Yes, you are. Are
you nervous? Yes, you are. You count down the days, 60 days, 59 days, 58 days, 57 days, every single
day, you're worried? If you have an important interview? Aren't you worried? Aren't you afraid? Yes.
So first of all, it means that we must have fear of Allah subhanaw taala. Secondly, it means that we
should become careful with respect to our actions. Because that meeting with Allah is not just for
nothing. He is going to question us about our deeds, he is going to inform us about what we have
		
00:33:38 --> 00:33:48
			done and judge our eternal and based on that. So we should fear Allah with respect to what our
actions.
		
00:33:49 --> 00:34:27
			Secondly, we should be careful with respect to our actions, that Allah is going to ask us about what
we have done. So what are we taking with ourselves? What are we taking with ourselves? Are we going
with the bare minimum? Are we going with hardly anything? Are we going with deeds that have been
nullified? Are we going with a Lord of burden of sin? Or are we going with heaps of good deeds? What
are we going with? What are we taking with ourselves? For example, when you go for a job interview,
what do you take with you, your portfolio and your portfolio? What does it have just random things,
things that are not relevant? No, you take the best work that you have done the best.
		
00:34:28 --> 00:34:54
			And thirdly, it means that we must have higher of Allah, we must have Schinus of Allah, that out of
that higher, we should not be found doing what Allah does not like, and we should not be absent from
doing what Allah likes. That we should have shyness of Allah, we're going to meet him. So all that
embarrassment, that whatever we're going to take with me, we should be careful about what we do.
