Lay Susa, that Allah subhanaw taala tells us that they're not all the same lay Susa lay. So, this is plural, meaning the Al Kitab are not all the same. Every single person from the people of the book does not possess these characteristics. So do not generalize that every single one of them has poverty of heart. No, this is not the reality lay Susa min al Kitabi from the people of the book is who are Mattoon a group of people who are caught in Mattoon, called a mutton literally means standing doesn't mean they're always standing. No, this means they are upholding. They are establishing what the commands that Allah soprano data has given them, meaning they are fulfilling

00:00:48--> 00:00:51

their duty, they're fulfilling their obligations.

00:00:52--> 00:01:37

And what else do they do yet Luna I Atilla they recite the verses of Allah. So first of all, they're obedient. They are adhering, they're firm and steadfast from the commands of Allah subhanaw taala, they're upright. Secondly, yet Luna I Atilla they recite the verses of Allah, then remember the meaning of Tilawat one is to recite and the other is to follow. So, they read meaning they learn, and they also follow meaning they observe and both of these are necessary learning as well as applying because without these two, the person suffers. So you have Luna I Attila, when did they recite the verses of Allah, Alain, in the hours of the night Anna is a plural of Indian, Elif, known

00:01:37--> 00:02:14

yet Indian and it means our a portion of time, especially of the night. So, in certain portions of the night, whether it is in Malay, Borussia, or after that in the middle of the night at the end of the night, whatever, what do they do? They recite the verses of Allah, well, whom he has to do, and they also prostrate meaning amongst the people of the book also there are some who are devout worshippers who are devout worshippers, they are obedient to Allah, they learn the book, they apply the book, the worship Allah

00:02:15--> 00:02:59

in total Bacara i 121 We learn AlLadhina attina Who will kita Viet Luna who have gotten our the hula you may know nobody so always there are some people will recite the book as it should be recited. They give the book it's right. You know, and they believe in Allah will Yeoman him and also in the last day, they believe in Allah, they believe in the last day where maroon oven maruf when honer and in Mancha, they command that which is right and forbid that which is wrong, where you said your own FL hierarchy and they hasten in doing good. You Sadie Aruna is from Musala from seeing Lorraine and sorrows to be quick to be speedy. So you sign your own that they're running, running hastening in

00:02:59--> 00:03:50

doing what in hell hierarchy hierarchy is the plural of hierarchy and higher good thing good action. It is every deed by which a person benefits himself brings clay to himself or ringside to others. So for example, when a person prays is that of the hierarchy when a person prays Salah is that at the 100 Yes, why? Because a person is benefiting himself. Okay? If a person teaches someone something good, then is that of the hierarchy? Yes, how he's benefiting himself, and he's also benefiting others. So when you set your own ethical hierarchy, they are busy, they're hastening and doing good. Meaning they're not just walking in goodness, they are running in goodness, one thing after the

00:03:50--> 00:04:36

other, it's a race. It's a struggle. It's an effort. Constantly, they're busy in this society, Aruna Phil, hi rod. Allah says what will not come in a solid Hain and they're the ones who are from the righteous meaning they're the company of the righteous, they are righteous company, and they will be among the righteous in the Hereafter. And where will the righteous be in Jannah? So they too will be in Jannah. In this world, they have surrounded themselves with good people in the Hereafter, Allah will keep them with good people. So we see that there are people from among the unknown Kitab, who are as described over here, they are not sinful. They are not greedy for this dunya they are not

00:04:36--> 00:04:59

those who are poor at heart. No, they are those who accept the truth when it is presented to them. There are those who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and that means definitely, that they believe in all of the prophets of Allah as well. So these ayat they're basically describing those from the People of the Book who accepted Islam who

00:05:00--> 00:05:44

was referring to those from the People of the Book who accepted Islam. When the truth was presented, they accepted which is why they do not have which is why they do not. So, for example, from the youth who accepted Islam have to live in Salah, from manga Nosara who accepted Islam to people from the delegation of Nigel when they came back, they accepted Islam, the dashi himself the king, he accepted Islam. So there are people but like Allah mentioned earlier, men human movement on natural, normal physical, not the majority, but some people accepted and they're described in good terms in these verses, Allah says about them, what am I if our lumen Claydon and whatever they do have any

00:05:44--> 00:06:36

good meaning any good deed that they perform for a yoke photo, that they will never be rejected? Its reward, yoke photo from Kapha Kapha literally means to cover and then it means to disbelieve to reject. So for laying yoke for who meaning they will be never rejected its reward any good they do Allah will not reject reward for it. No, Allah will reward them for it. Because Allah is a Shaku, he is greatly appreciative. Why am I here for lumen height and fillet yoke for Wu wala, who are Lehmann been with the pain and Allah is Knowing of those who are fearful of him. Allah knows the reality of people he knows who is methodically and who is not he knows who is sincere? And who is not. Who is

00:06:36--> 00:07:12

doing what, with how much enthusiasm, and with what intention, this is why he is the one who rewards in total insanity at 22 we learn in the heather Canada come Jezza and what kind of stereo komische Kumar, this is your award and your effort is appreciated. So never ever feel that if you do something for the sake of Allah, it's a wasted effort. No, it is not a wasted effort. It happens sometimes that you do something and it takes so much of your heart, your time, your confidence, your guts to do it.

00:07:13--> 00:07:59

And people don't even notice it. People don't value it. People don't pay any attention to it. So at that time, what should you think? Never again, am I going to bother? Yeah, is that what we should do? No. Expect reward from WHO? From Allah and remind yourself that we may have our lumen Hidin, following your quarrel with Allah who are Lehmann Wilmoth Ducane, Allah knows about those who fear Him. So He is the one who will reward. Now if you look at the characteristics that are mentioned over here, of those from the People of the Book, who accept Islam, whose good characteristics are mentioned, the first deed that is mentioned is Thilawa. That they recite the verses of Allah when a

00:07:59--> 00:08:08

person recites the book of Allah then what will that lead to? Increase of Iman and when a person has high Eman, then what will he do?

00:08:09--> 00:08:12

If your Eman increases, what will you do the time for Salah comes in and

00:08:13--> 00:08:56

the opportunity to give sadaqa comes in and you're like, Yeah, somebody else will give know, when your iman is high, then you will do good yourself. Isn't that tough? And when you will do it yourself? Will you not tell others about it? Yes. So that's where I'm at with my roof comes in. And if you see someone doing something wrong, will you not stop them? Yes. That is when the Hanuman call comes in. And then a person cannot stay at rest. You said your own if it'll highlight he hastens and doing good. So you see that all of these characteristics are related to each other one leads to the other. But it begins with what does it begin with? Yet Luna? Recitation Tilawat. So if you feel that

00:08:56--> 00:09:12

you're lacking in goodness in doing good if you feel that you don't have any desire to do good, you don't have any desire to earn reward, that Eman is lacking, than what has to be done Thilawa

00:09:14--> 00:09:59

and what if it's like you don't even want to recite the Quran? Pen What do you do now over the villa human a shade loving alidium Smilla Rahmanir Rahim and start reciting force yourself there seek refuge with Allah and start reciting because it's only upon who is stopping you. The recitation of the Quran is something that is so beneficial, that is so fruitful, that you cannot know what you're missing. Unless you recite the Quran. It is a key to success. This is what will lead you to normal, righteous deeds in this dunya and this is what will lead you to great heights on the Day of Judgment. On the Day of Judgment a person will be told what to read and ascend. Read as US

00:10:00--> 00:10:20

to read in the world and keep ascending, keep going higher and higher in the levels of paradise. And the last verse you recite is where your destination is in paradise. It is the key to success in this dunya and after. But unfortunately, we have made this so difficult for ourselves, that we don't do it. When we don't do it. We deprive ourselves. So it begins with the tilava.

00:10:21--> 00:11:03

And it's only natural that when a person has Eman, you will have love for the book of Allah when he will love the book of Allah, Will he leave it? He won't leave it. When you love your cell phone? Do you ever leave it? There? Forget it. No, you don't want people to sleep with it. People eat with it, sharp with it, walk with it, jog with it. I mean, whatever they're doing it with their cell phones, they cannot part with it, because they love it. So when you love the book of Allah, you will not leave it. And to love the book of Allah, you have to read it. You have to learn it. You have to apply, it has to be meaningful to you. And then we also learn in these ayat about a very good, a

00:11:03--> 00:11:35

very important characteristic, which is what will let it come in a solid, they're often righteous, meaning they are from the company of good people in this dunya they are surrounded by who good people. Because good people good company has a very, very great impact on you. You start imitating your friends and you don't even realize people who are around you, you start talking like them, you start walking like them. You start laughing like them.

00:11:36--> 00:12:16

You know my son, I've noticed he's only three years old. But recently, you know, he's been with some people who laugh in a particular way. And he's actually laughing like them. And I'm just amazed how much company can affect you know how children they affect each other. They pick up expressions and they pick up words. They don't even know what they mean. But they will use them just because they or their friend or their cousin using them. And sometimes adults they start talking like children because they're always surrounded by children. So your company definitely has an effect on you. So we see that sorbitol Ohia, the company of the righteous sorry about the Salah here in the company of

00:12:16--> 00:12:33

the good people is from us verbal Salah is from the means of reformation. It is one of the ways of reforming yourself. Aboard one said we're hibel Sally haina well, so coming home, I love righteous people. And I know that I'm not one of them.

00:12:34--> 00:13:12

Meaning I love righteous people and I know that I'm not a righteous person myself. I have many faults in me. Lauren, Allah hydrazone salah, in hopes that Allah will give me Salah will make me a righteous person. So I love righteous people. I stay with them in hopes that their goodness will rub on me someday, I will also become like them. This is why the Prophet sallallahu sallam said that a good friend and a bad friend or like a perfume seller and a blacksmith, right. Perfume seller if you're with him, when he will leave you will smell like perfume. And a blacksmith. If you're with him when you will leave you will smell like smoke.

00:13:13--> 00:13:46

If you go to a coffee shop, you will smell like coffee. Right? And if you're sitting next to a person who's smoking, you will smell like smoke. Correct. So your company definitely has an effect on you. Allahu Allah. Dini holiday he a person is on the religion of his friend aboard one said Anil mother elantas l was Salah and Kadena. If you want to find out about someone how they are, you know people are investigating a prospective spouse right? So the board said that don't ask about the person

00:13:47--> 00:14:03

was Salah unclean, but ask about his friend. Check who his friends are, how they are what kind of people they are. Because we're cool Luca Eden Wilmore car in New York 30 Every friend follows his friend.

00:14:04--> 00:14:09

So what's the summary here? That righteous people will affect you?

00:14:10--> 00:14:32

So surround yourself in the company of good people? That is what will protect your faith? That is what will grow it that is what will move you to doing something good. It may happen with you that it's time to do something good. And you don't even remember because your friend is doing it. You remember to do it. Let's listen to the recitation of these verses.

00:16:35--> 00:16:53

in Alladhina Cafaro indeed those people who disbelieve Lan toniann home am word home wala hola to home mean Allah He che never will their wealth or their children avail them against Allah at all. What Allah Iike us Harbin

00:16:54--> 00:17:41

and those are the Companions of the Fire homefree her Holly Dune, they will abide then eternally. In the previous verses Allah subhanaw taala mentioned the People of the Book, how that some of them are those who accept Eman but the majority of them what is their state that they are Facetune they are sinful meaning they remain as disbelievers. But then it was also mentioned that lay Susa they're not all the same meaning don't generalize where there are some amongst them who remain firm on their Cofer. There are also some who accept Eman and their good characteristics were mentioned. What were some of their good traits that were mentioned. First of all, that they recite the Quran, what else

00:17:41--> 00:17:42

do they do?

00:17:43--> 00:18:24

They do such that they prostrate meaning the worship Allah they do or bother, what else do they do? They command that which is right for bit that which is wrong, and they hasten in doing good deeds and they are the ones who are from the righteous meaning they have righteous company, and they will have the same end as the righteous people. And now, on the other hand, those people who disbelieve What will their and be, what will their consequence be? Allah says those people who disbelieve Alladhina Cafaro and these disbelievers includes all kinds of disbelievers, whether it is from the people of the book, or it is someone who was a believer and became a disbeliever any kind of

00:18:24--> 00:19:14

disbeliever someone who rejects Allah subhanaw taala who reject the laws of Allah the commands of Allah, learn Tonia and whom Allah Allah whom their wealth is never ever going to avail them, though we're talking years from Ray noon yet and Lina is to be rich, to be free of want. And Elena is to enrich someone else to make them free of one meaning to fulfill their need. So learn to near and home um, well hope they're unwell plural of Mal, their possessions, their properties, their wealth, they can never ever save them, protect them, enrich them from who, from Allah, meaning they can never save them from the punishment of Allah. What else can never save them? Wala Ola to whom and

00:19:14--> 00:19:55

nor their children plural of wallet, their wealth and their children cannot help them from the punishment of Allah. Why do you think these two are mentioned wealth and children? Because when a person is in difficulty, when a person is in trouble, then what is it that helps him? It's either his money or it is his children? For example, if a person is at the verge of losing his life, meaning someone's about to kill him, what will he say? Ask me whatever you want. I'll give you all my wealth, all my money, everything. Just spare my life. Don't kill me. Isn't that so? A person is willing to give all of his wealth in order to save himself. If a person is ill, he is sick, then

00:19:55--> 00:19:59

what will he do for his treatment? He's willing to sell his house

00:20:00--> 00:20:44

A woman is willing to sell her jewelry. People are willing to sell whatever they have in order to save themselves. And then what else is it that helps a person when he is in difficulty his children, because a child can never see his parents in difficulty. A child can never see his parents in problem. And when he sees that his parents are suffering, he will do whatever that he can in order to rescue them. But we see that over here, those who disbelieve their well their children cannot save them from Allah, meaning from his punishment on that day, meaning the person's well his children are useless to him. They cannot assist him at all. What Allah equals Harbin now, and those

00:20:44--> 00:21:29

are the Companions of the Fire homefree, Holly dune and they will abide there in eternity. If you think about it, wealth and children cannot help a person against the punishment of Allah. And many times, what is it that makes a person disobey Allah? What is it wealth and children? It is for the sake of earning money, it is for the sake of enjoying money, right enjoying the dunya it is for the sake of pleasing people pleasing family members, children, that many times we end up disobeying Allah subhanaw taala. If you think about it, in the previous verses, some good qualities were mentioned such as Dilawar of the Quran, such as such the now what is it that prevents us from the

00:21:29--> 00:22:08

recitation of the Quran? We know you should recite. But what is it that stops us? What is it that doesn't let us because we're too busy with our money, with our house with our possessions, with our children with our families? I'm not saying that do not give them their right, no, they are your priority, you have to take care of them. Their rights are their rights, but they should not stop us from the recitation of the Quran, there has to be a balance, where we are concerned about fulfilling the rights of our family members, we also have to be concerned about fulfilling the rights of the Quran for our own sake for our own benefit.

00:22:09--> 00:22:52

And we see that in this world also, many times it happens that a person is in trouble. But his wealth doesn't come in any use his money doesn't help him, his family, even they leave him if this happens in this world, than what will happen on the Day of Judgment. If Allah shows to us in this dunya that your wealth cannot save you. People cannot save you than what about the Day of Judgment? Isn't it clear then. So those people who because of their money because of their families, they compromise on the dean, then this is worse for them. Those who disbelieve their families, their children can never help them from Allah. This is the reason why Allah subhanaw taala says in Surah,

00:22:52--> 00:23:37

mon African ini that led to leikam unwelcome Hola Hola, como en decorilla That don't let your well and don't let your children divert you from the remembrance of Allah. Don't let them distract you that you don't even remember to remember Allah that you completely forget Allah subhanaw taala and if you think about it, if you analyze your day, it begins with what cooking and cleaning and you know getting ready to go to school or whatever stage of life a person is in. It revolves around family and money. You know, people wake up first thing they do get ready for their work and immediately leave no time to remember Allah. No time to remember Allah for the rest of the day. It

00:23:37--> 00:23:40

begins in that manner, the day ends in that manner.

00:23:41--> 00:23:52

But Allah says, Yo Malaya and Pharaoh merlon While I've been on the Day of Judgment is the day when your wealth and your children cannot help you. Your wealth and your children cannot save you on that day.

00:23:54--> 00:24:42

Matthew the example of May Yun feel corner of that which they spend fee Holly Hill higher to dunya in this worldly life, the example of that which they spend in this life who those who disbelieve meaning whatever money they're spending whatever efforts they're putting in whatever work they are doing. The example the description of all of that is kammath LED is like the example of the three from the root letters of law Yeah, huh. Used for wind. And remember that when the singular word is used, V, that it refers to such wind that is destructive, that causes destruction. And when the plural is used RIA many times in the Quran is used for such wind that is beneficial mean that brings

00:24:42--> 00:25:00

rain clouds, that brings rain so it's beneficial for people but really is what kind of wind destructive wind. So the example of all they spend in this life all they enjoy in this life, the efforts that they put in in this life is like that.

00:25:00--> 00:25:53

Add of a wind. And this wind is fee how sled rune in it is set, what is slit say this from the root letter Sadara. And it's basically a strong wind that is extremely hot or extremely cold. So what is it extremely hot or extremely cold, but also very noisy, because sled is also understood as the sweet to make noise. For example, the noise that is made by the movement or the rumbling off, or the shaking of you can say pebbles or stones. Alright, so extreme noise, extreme cold or extreme heat. So it's a wind that is very, very severe, very strong, extremely chilly, or extremely hot, a solid and it reaches from the root letter solid wherever it hits, it strikes HERSA calm in the field, the

00:25:53--> 00:26:07

cultivation the crop of people who have one or more ANVISA home who have been unjust to themselves. The word house we have done this earlier as well, how to author it's the crop and it refers to the deeds, the actions.

00:26:08--> 00:26:28

But this wind it reaches its trikes, the cultivation of who those people who have been unjust to themselves. Think about it, a farmer who plants his garden, okay or his field at a time when winter storms are coming very soon.

00:26:29--> 00:27:20

Is he doing lumada? himself? Is he? Yes. Because he is putting in all that effort at the wrong time. at the wrong time. So what's going to happen? One wind chill, one snowstorm, the temperatures drop overnight, and all his efforts are wasted. One strong wind a hurricane and everything is gone. So what will unfold the home they planted it at a wrong time the action was correct, but the time was not right. Likewise, what level and for some woman the context what is it referred to those people who have been disobedient to Allah who have been doing so what will happen, all of their deeds that they have done, their efforts that they have put in, whether it's charitable work, you know, being

00:27:20--> 00:28:05

very nice and generous and kind towards others. Whatever efforts they have been putting in, it's like their field, their crop. But then on the day of judgment, what's going to happen, it says though, their crop has been struck by has been devastated by a strong chilly or extremely hot wind that was very noisy. And as a result, that entire crop is finished. It's gone for Allah cut. So it destroys it her lamb calf Haluk destruction, completely destroyed, so that they're not able to reap any benefit from it. They're not able to gain any outcome from it. They're spending their investment, everything is wasted. Allah says wema Allah, Muhammad, Allah, Allah has not been unjust

00:28:05--> 00:28:48

to them. This is not that Allah is being unjust with them, that all of their efforts, he's wasting no one action and Fusa home meals to the moon, they are wronging themselves. How? Because they're not doing what they're doing in the right manner. If a person sows the seeds at the end of summertime, and then comes fall, whose fault is it? Whose fault is it? It is his fault, he should have planted the garden at the right time, if he planted it at the wrong time. And at the end, all of his efforts are wasted whose fault is it Allah spell that he caused the winter to come? No way. This is the natural way of Allah subhanaw taala that the seasons will change. So likewise, this is

00:28:48--> 00:29:38

the natural outcome of the one who does good with Cofer, that his efforts his deeds are not going to bring any benefit to him. They're just wasted, simply wasted. Who am Allah Muhammad Allah, what I can and for some years Limone now if you think about it, the disbelievers they spend their wealth for many reasons. First of all, a person spends on his own personal use for his own enjoyment. Okay, his own NEFA cot. And we know that when a believer spends on his family, even then even that is charity, isn't it so he is rewarded for the morsel of food that he puts in the mouth of his wife. If a person is spending on himself to seek knowledge to fulfill his needs, so that he can be a good

00:29:38--> 00:29:59

servant of Allah subhanaw taala he can live a good life so that he can accumulate more and more good deeds than everything he spends, whether it is on his gas or on his car on his house, his electricity bills his phone built with a good intention in a good way in a halal manner. Isn't that rewarded for yes it is rewarded for but on the other hand, the disbeliever when he spends

00:30:00--> 00:30:46

then all of his spending is wasted. It will not bring him any reward. Why? Because he's not doing it in the right manner. He's not doing it with Yvonne. He's not doing it with the hope of reward from Allah subhanaw taala in total for con 23 We learn what Kademlia Illa Moromi Luminor amyrlin fudgey Fajr Allahu hubba Aman surah. And we will regard whatever they have done of deeds and make them as dust that is dispersed, all of their deeds will be turned to dust that is dispersed why? Because in nama the Cabal Allahu minimoto, clean Allah only etc, who those people are the quad, those who have Eman then likewise a disbeliever he may spend in charity, you know on the poor and the needy,

00:30:47--> 00:31:26

orphans, people who need help he spends on them. Even that will not bring him any benefit, instead of the Toba 54 Allah says concerning the hypocrites, that woman marinara and talk about a man whom never Khartoum, Illa Allah homecare, follow Billa he will be Rasul Li and nothing prevents their expenditures from being accepted from them, except that they have disbelieved in Allah and in His Messenger, because I'm gonna have to clean the hypocrites, they would apparently spend a lot in the way of Allah, they would contribute financially. And they would also accompany the Prophet sallallahu Sallam and some of the battles and anyone who accompanied the prophets of Allah Islam in

00:31:26--> 00:31:36

the battle he had to spend on himself, he had to take care of his own expenses. But Allah says that their expenditures are not accepted. Why? Because of their coffee.

00:31:37--> 00:32:12

So even when a person is very charitable towards others, very generous, kind, helpful, even that will not be accepted if he's doing that with coffee. Because golfer renders all of a person's good deeds in vain. Now person might say this is very unfair, why? I mean, look at the effort on the part of that person. Why would Allah appreciate that? Because that person is not doing it for Allah. He's not doing it for Allah. If you want reward from Allah, then you have to do it for him.

00:32:14--> 00:32:54

If you're doing it for the benefit of people, okay, you've benefited them good, you will see the outcome in this world, like we see today that many people are helped by others, not in the Name of Allah, but for other reasons for other motives, and they are achieved, a person feels happiness in his art okay. The person who was suffering from poverty, from sickness from disease, whatever, he is relieved, okay, good, you get the result. But that result is where only in the dunya in the agora, only that person will get good result who aim for that result who wanted reward from Allah. And thirdly, the third kind of expenditures of the disbelievers or which ones those which they do in

00:32:54--> 00:33:38

opposition to the Prophet saw a lot is in opposition to the deen of Allah. If a person spends in order to oppose the deen of Allah, then even that will bring him no benefit. That will bring him no benefit in total and file IO 36. Allah says in Alladhina Cafaro you in your corner and wallah home Lea sweet door answer below Allah fossa, Yun Fukunaga, so Mata Coonawarra him has sletten sama Yola boon. Indeed those who disbelieved they spend their wealth to avert people from the way of Allah. So they will spend it, meaning they will keep spending it, and then it will be for them a source of regret, on the Day of Judgment, or later on, they will have regret that we spent 1000s of dollars on

00:33:38--> 00:34:04

this, but we weren't successful. So the main lesson over here is that when a person does something without Eman, then no matter what deed it is, no matter what charitable effort it is, it will not yield him any reward. Why? Because he's not doing it for Allah. And when he's not doing it for Allah, Allah will not reward him for that.

00:34:05--> 00:34:50

Also, we see that no matter what heights of power of wealth a person may attain in this dunya if he disbelieves his mind, his family cannot help him from Allah. It doesn't matter how rich, how powerful, how strong, how influential the person may be in this world, how successful he may be in this world. If he does Gopher, then nothing can help him from Allah. A person can be remembered for centuries for 1000s of years in this world. People can be inspired by him, they can praise him on and on. They can keep writing about him, they can follow him in his footsteps, appreciate his efforts, whatever. But if that person does go further than that is meaningless. Because even if the

00:34:50--> 00:35:00

entire man can work to help him from the punishment of Allah, they cannot instruct Saba is 37 Allah says woman and welcome wala hola to come bility to caribou

00:35:00--> 00:35:23

Marine dinosaurs. It is not your wealth or your children that draws you close to Allah. No, it is your good deeds. It is your Eman to having a lot of money should not be the goal in our lives. Yes, it is a benefit. But it should not be the purpose the purpose of our lives is to draw close to who almost upon third

00:35:24--> 00:36:05

into the bucket I have 48 also Allah says what taco Yeoman lead that is enough sooner and nevsun che a fear of the day when no soul will help another? Well, are you cobalamin Hashkafa no intercession will be accepted well are you hold them in her alone, no compensation will be taken well at home, you also don't and they will not be helped. So it doesn't matter how strong a person is how influential he is in this world. What he needs to succeed on the Day of Judgment is Iman and these ayat also teaches another important lesson, which is that our lives are an Amana on us. We should value the life that Allah subhanaw taala has given to us. If Allah has blessed us with money, if

00:36:05--> 00:36:24

Allah has blessed us with great opportunities, if Allah has blessed us with great people around us, whether your family members or friends or whoever, then this is not just so that we can enjoy our lives and just be busy with them. No, this is so that we can work for our Akela we can make our Jana.

00:36:25--> 00:37:10

You see Allah bestows to everyone, the one who believes and the one who disbelieved the one who is righteous, and also the one who is sinful, but who is the one who makes most of it, the one who believes the one who is righteous, because his well his children will benefit him in this dunya and in the Hereafter, he is making use of whatever help that Allah has given to him. And on the other hand, if a person does not use them in the right manner, then he is wasting himself. He is really wasting himself. This is just like a person has a great qualification. Now one is that a person goes out works makes money make something of himself and the other is that he just sits with it and does

00:37:10--> 00:37:10

nothing.

00:37:11--> 00:37:43

Which one is better? Which option is better? The first one, if a person is not making use of his talents or his qualification, then he is wasting himself. He is being unfair with himself. He is being irresponsible with himself, he is doing himself a great injustice. So when Allah has given us time, should we waste it? Know when Allah has given us money? Should we waste that know? When Allah has given us great opportunity? Should we waste them no.

00:37:44--> 00:37:50

seize the opportunities that Allah has given to us because they are a means of obtaining heights in the market.

00:37:51--> 00:38:35

And if a person suffers there, then it's only his fault and nobody else's fault. When I can and for someone, usually moon, Allah says in surah baqarah I 195 that were unphysical feasable Allah, Allah told Kobe ad, Camilla Luca, or are singing in Allah, your humble mercy, that spell in the way of Allah and do not throw yourselves with your own hands into destruction. Do something with your time do something good with your money, don't throw yourself into destruction and do good do your son. Indeed Allah loves the doors of good so do Air sign in your life in whatever capacity that you can so that you can attain great heights in the hereafter recitation

00:39:44--> 00:39:59

Think of it as the lives effort of a person, the entire life of a person, whatever he brings the output of it. And that's destroyed completely. Why because of the lack of Eman likewise with the lack of

00:40:00--> 00:40:26

sincerity with the lack of a glass also, the efforts of a person are wasted. Allah does not accept them. So do yourself a favor. Be fair to yourself, be good to yourself by doing what you're doing, for whose sake, Allah subhanaw taala for his pleasure so that they're really worth something. But unfortunately we do what we do to seek praise from people and when we don't get that praise, we stop. We're destroying ourselves.
