For me,

00:03:27--> 00:03:29

in knee deep.

00:03:38--> 00:03:43

So as you were listening, could you imagine this conversation taking place

00:03:44--> 00:03:53

that imagine all of mankind is present, just imagine a huge stadium or an arena where there are 1000s and 1000s of people.

00:03:54--> 00:04:04

And there are just a few people who are in the center. And everybody's able to see them, hear them because what they're saying is being magnified on huge screens.

00:04:05--> 00:04:13

And just imagine all the prophets are present. And Allah asks them, what response did you receive?

00:04:14--> 00:04:17

And they are so afraid that they say we don't know.

00:04:18--> 00:04:39

And Allah addresses ISA and s&m, reminding him of so many favors which Allah bestowed him which were in reality, favors to who to his people. Because all those favors only made it easier for the people to believe in Him, to follow him to accept what he was saying to them.

00:04:40--> 00:04:52

Imagine the state of those people and then Allah who will ask him, What is it called Allah Who and recall when Allah mentioned when Allah will say to uresa

00:04:53--> 00:04:59

it fine Allah who were if and when kala he said Allah who Allah year isa or

00:05:00--> 00:05:02

isa Imola Maria my son of Meriam

00:05:03--> 00:05:21

did under you alter? You said Lin Nursey to the people. It took me Dooney you take me, we're Amir and my mother, Isla Hain as to God's men from Dooney Allah besides Allah.

00:05:23--> 00:05:38

Imagine, everybody is listening, afraid. And Allah asks, bizarrely Salam, did you tell the people that oh people take me and my mother as God's besides Allah

00:05:39--> 00:06:36

Raisa? Did you tell people that they should worship you, that they should call upon you that they should worship your mother? That if they are in need, they should make prayer to you? Did you tell them? Did you command them to do this? Caller he will say Sub Saharan Africa glorified Are you Maria Kunal, it is not leave for me an Akula that I say man that which lays that it is not leave for me be helped in any rate, he will reply or Allah perfect. Are you glorified? Are you I had absolutely no right to say anything like this. Why would I call people to my worship? Notice over here, he does not go on mentioning his innocence. Rather, what does he do? He glorifies Allah. He mentioned

00:06:36--> 00:07:30

Allah's perfection, that Allah subhana occur, that you have no partner. I believe in you alone, I worship you alone. How could I ever called people to my worship? And I have no right to say anything like this. What was the message that he saw this and and gave to the people the message of dough heat? Who was worship? Did he invite the people to the worship of Allah subhanho data and on why? Because only He is Allah? Only He is God, no one else other than Him deserved worship. And who knows this fact really well. It is the prophets of Allah. So there is artists and angled reply Subhanak may occasionally an Akula Melissa Lee beheld perfect Are you above having any partner perfect and

00:07:30--> 00:08:19

free from the need of having a partner you are perfect in yourself. You don't need to share your authority your work with anybody because you are above any weakness, any deficiency, who needs a partner who needs to share his work his authority with someone someone who cannot handle it themselves because it's too much for them. It's too difficult for them, Allah or zoologia Subhanak you are free from this deficiency and weakness. May your corner Lee an Akula Melissa Lee Bihac I had no right to claim anything like this. And I would never say anything like this. He will further say if gone to I was called to who I said it. For cada alimta for called than certainly alimta, who you

00:08:19--> 00:09:07

knew it. If I had said anything like this, you would have known it. Why? Because Allah knows everything. So, in other words, there is on this and I'm missing. I never said that. Because when Allah subhanaw taala, is asking recited sunnah. Did you say to the people who worship me? Is it because Allah does not know? Of course, Allah knows. Of course, Allah knows that resides and I've never made such a claim, then why is he asking him? Because he is indirectly rebuking his people, that On what basis? Did you worship him? On what basis? Did you start calling him God? On what basis? Did you ask him for help? When he never told you, he never commanded you? So on the Day of

00:09:07--> 00:09:59

Judgment, Allah will ask me sorry, sir, did you tell the people and when he will say no, in this as great humiliation for the people, he will say, if I had said it, you would have known it because that alarm will you know, man that what fee is enough see myself Wallah and not our alarm will I know man that which Fein up sick in yourself? In NACA indeed, you and you alone, I learn, I learn supremely aware of what Allahu you have the unseen words. If I had said it, you would have known it. Why? Because whatever is in my heart, you know, whether something I utter, I speak or I conceal it, whatever I say whatever.

00:10:00--> 00:10:56

I keep inside, you know it. And I on the other hand, as for me regardless, and I'm saying, As for me, I have no idea about what is in you, meaning what you know Allah, what you are aware of what you say what you intend, I do not know, you know me, what I feel in my heart, what I conceal in my heart, and I don't know about all those matters that you hide from me. Why? Because only Allah is God over here basically, is our listeners referring to his being a human being, his being limited in his knowledge in his ability, compared to who compared to Allah subhanaw taala. In a way he is showing his servitude to Allah, that I am nothing before you, you are the one who knows everything.

00:10:56--> 00:11:42

And I, on the other hand, don't know much at all. My knowledge compared to yours is almost nothing. So how could I ever be God? Does Allah subhanaw taala not know this? Of course he knows this. Why is he started this and I'm saying this to Allah, again, to prove to the people that you are guilty, I never invited you to shake. So what do we learn over here, that Risa or the Sunnah, never, ever claimed divinity. He never called people to the worship of himself. Rather, he called people to the worship of Allah alone. And we see over here that ASR SNM considered himself a human being, because that's who he was. He believed in himself as someone who was limited in his abilities and his

00:11:42--> 00:12:39

knowledge. And he believed in Allah subhanaw taala alone as well as God, why? Because He alone knows everything in under Allah, Allahu Yo, you alone are who the Knower of the unseen, you alone, have the knowledge of everything that is hidden, therefore, I cannot be God, only you are only you alone, are God. In Nikka, enter unknown will who you'll notice over here, that SR Lisanna never claimed divinity. And this is an evidence of, of his truthfulness that he was a true messenger. Because every prophet would only say what was true, he would never claim anything. That was not true for him. He would only say what Allah subhanaw taala commanded him to say, the messengers were not

00:12:39--> 00:13:22

allowed to make up anything, they were not allowed to invent anything at all. And this is a sign of what of a true prophet. In the Quran, we learn that if the prophets or a lot of Saddam were to have invented something, then what would happen, you would be severely punished, that has now who believe me, we would have surely seized him from the right, the mullah Katana, then shortly we will have got his vein meeting he will be punished openly before people, but nothing such as this happened. And what does that show that he was a true prophet, and those who are false prophets who claimed prophethood they claimed the most weirdest and strange things. They're the ones who seem to be like

00:13:22--> 00:14:16

magicians who were dishonest people, people who are liars, and their falsehood was apparent. Whether this happened hundreds of years ago or it happened recently or it happens today. Any person who was a false prophet, his invention is visible, it is very clear it is not hidden. So he says over here is RNs and an Incan to Alto for other Linda Darla Murphy Nuptse Allah Allah MUMA Fein of sick in Mecca enter alone will who you only you alone are the Knower of the unseen I do not know the unseen I could never be God. He said Mouchel to man not all to Iset law whom to them in that except manner that which are Multani you commanded me be with it. I never said anything except for that which you

00:14:16--> 00:14:59

commanded me with. Meaning the only thing I conveyed to the people was what you told me to convey to them. I never changed it. I never added anything to it. I never decreased anything from it as is verbatim that is what I conveyed to the people mammal doula whom in llama, a Malta newbie. And what was that which he conveyed to the people that are boo all of you worship Allah, Allah. Be my Lord, what a vaccum and your Lord, this is what he said to the people that are people worship Allah, who is my Lord, and your Lord. Are you sorry, listen, and one of the first things that he said I

00:15:00--> 00:15:38

As a child was what? In knee Ovid, Allah, indeed I am the servant of Allah. He claimed servitude for himself that he was only a servant of Allah. He was an ABD he was my look, he was a human being. He never called people to the worship of himself. He said orrible de la hora be what up back home. And he will say at that time, welcome to and I was, I lay him upon them Shahidan a witness, madam to as long as I remained, fee him in them.

00:15:39--> 00:16:32

Meaning he will say at that time, that as long as I was alive, as long as I was in the dunya amongst the people, then yes, I was a witness over them witness over what over their actions what they did, yes, I saw what they did. I saw what they believed in I saw their actions. However, Philomathean when there were faith, any you took me in full meaning Oh Allah, when you gave that to me when you recalled me, then Kunta you were under you alone, on repeat the Ever Watchful the observer, or lay him over them, when you took me whether it was the first time that he was lifted up from the earth, Allah subhanaw taala took him up from the earth, or it was the second time when he was sent and

00:16:32--> 00:17:16

Allah subhanaw taala will give him death right as we know, that recited sunnah he was taken up, he was not given death, rather he was taken up as is. And then towards the end of time, he will be sent back to the earth when he will be sent back, then he will die after some time he will die a natural death. So there were faith and he could be referring to either of those two, or both. Even that when you remove me from the people of the earth when I was no longer amongst people, then you observe them, you know about what they did. I don't know what they did. I have no idea but what they did after I left them, so whatever they invented after I was gone, that was their own inventions. I have

00:17:16--> 00:18:02

nothing to do with that. So in other words, after he started s&m When the people started worshipping Him, claimed that he was son of God, or God Himself did a service and I'm have any share in this? No. Did he ever tell the people to do anything like this? Never. Because all of this happened after he was gone. This is very similar to how the Prophet sallallahu sallam, when he left when he was given that after him. There are many people who literally pray to the Prophet sallallahu wasallam Did he ever tell them worship me? Did he ever tell them pray to Me? Asked me. Did he ever say that? No. He in fact, cursed the people who do this, near the time of death of the Prophet sallallahu

00:18:02--> 00:18:50

Sallam when he was in, in the agony of death. At that time, he would wake up and he would say, May Allah curse the hood and then Asana because they took the graves of their prophets as places of worship. They would go and worship who their Prophets when they passed away the righteous people when they passed away, and over here, what was he doing in reality, warning the people that don't do this, don't do what the WHO THE Nosara did that when I die, you start worshiping Me. So we see that the prophets of Allah when they were alive, they called people to nothing but the heat. They called people to the worship of Allah. And they rejected Schick to the best of their ability until their

00:18:50--> 00:19:35

last moment they rejected shake. They condemned it. They warned people against it. And if people committed check after their debts, the profits were not at fault. It was not their fault. Whose fault was it? Who's guilty of it completely? It was the people who invented it after them. So this is why are you sorry, listen, I'm will say that when you took me for a matter of faith, honey contenta, rocky barley, you alone were observer over them. And this shows to us that once a prophet leaves this world, when Allah subhanaw taala gives him that then he does not know about what's going on in this dunya unless and until Allah informs him in the Barossa the prophet of himself does not

00:19:35--> 00:20:00

know canta Anta rocky barley him and the name of Allah, Allah P is from raw cough, but raka means neck, rocky with someone who observes so closely that it is as though he is watching the neck of the person. When you're watching the neck of the person it means that you're very close. You're watching them from very, very near and you're watching every activity of theirs. Imagine

00:20:00--> 00:20:47

Somebody's looking over you over your shoulder. They know what you're doing what you're writing, what you're texting, what you're saying, because they're watching you. And Rocky Walter signifies that people forget, but he is watching this, like, there could be somebody watching you from behind, and you don't know. So you're busy doing whatever you are doing, ignoring the fact that somebody's behind you because you don't know you're not aware. So Allah subhanaw taala watches people, even when people are heedless, even when people are forgetful, so Kunta under rocky Barney him, you were watchful over them were under and you alone, Isla upon coalition in everything, Shahidan, a witness,

00:20:47--> 00:21:07

you are a witness over everything, you know, that I fulfilled my duty with sincerity with your son, I conveyed the message of the hate to the people to the best of my ability I condemn check. You are a witness to that. And whatever happened after me, you know about that as well.

00:21:08--> 00:21:53

I imagine when this conversation has taken place, we saw this alarm knows that the people who worshipped him, the people who took him as a son of God, are the people who took Him as God, what are their destiny? Where's their destination, it's clear, they're going to hell because of the ship that they committed. Because their guilt is established, that they invented these lies. And Allah subhanaw taala rejects them. Allah does not accept what they did at all. And if a person comes on the Day of Judgment, with a whole lot of deeds, but they're worth nothing, then what is his end going to be? It's nothing but punishment. And at this time, recited, someone will say, in the home,

00:21:53--> 00:22:22

if you punish them, for inner home, then indeed the rubber duck your servants were in an if don't fit, you forgive the home for them for Inaka, then indeed you and you alone, and RZ is the Exalted in Might. And Hakeem the wise, restarted, some will say into our them home, or Allah, if you decide to punish these people today,

00:22:24--> 00:22:28

for in the Homare burdock than they are Your servants, meaning you own them.

00:22:30--> 00:23:25

They cannot do anything to defend themselves. You won't suffer any harm, you won't gain any benefit, by punishing them. Because they are ultimately your servants. They ultimately belong to you. It's like if you own something, and you throw it away, it's your decision. What you threw away, what you discarded, cannot challenge you in the decision that you're making against it. Why? Because you are the owner, you can do whatever you want, you have the full right to execute your will and your decision, because you are the master and you decide the fate of what you own. So listen, I will say if you decide to punish these people today, Oh Allah, then they are Your servants, you have the full

00:23:25--> 00:24:15

right to do that. What in toffee Allah whom, and if you should forgive them, if you should overlook their greatest crimes, the sins, that you dislike the sins that you want the people against, over and over again, if you still decide to forgive them for Inaka and Zarzis. Or Hakeem, then indeed You are Exalted in Might the wise, why does he say that you are the Exalted in Might the wise, that if you forgive them, it doesn't mean that you are too weak to punish them, that you have no choice but to forgive them? No, you have the full ability of full power to punish them. But yet, if you forgive them, that doesn't reduce in your power.

00:24:16--> 00:24:40

And whatever decision you make, it is based on your hikma you are unhappy him. So whatever decision you make, ultimately, it is correct. So nobody has any right to challenge your decision. Put yourself in this position, imaginary service and I'm just talking about you and I. And he says to Allah, Oh Allah, if you punish her,

00:24:42--> 00:24:47

then she is your servant. And if you forgive her, then you are Aziz and hurricane.

00:24:49--> 00:24:59

Just imagine if you're standing in a court, and the judge is told that you have the choice whether to sentence her or to pardon

00:25:01--> 00:25:20

Imagine if a major verdict concerning you is being made. What would be your position? How would you be feeling into are them home for in the home or a bird dog will interfere with the home for indica and Dalaras ease and Hakeem, You are Almighty, you are all wise.

00:25:21--> 00:25:55

Just look over here. Are you sorry, listen, I'm does not even intercede for those people. He doesn't even say Oh Allah, please forgive them. They loved me. They did Hello out of love for me. And that was actually out of love for you. He doesn't even intercede for them. And these are the people who do Jesus Jesus all the time. These are the people who believe that He died on the cross for their sins. These are the people who have dedicated their lives spent 1000s and 1000s. In the worship, of who recited

00:25:56--> 00:26:16

to serve Him to be on his path and these people resigned this and I will say about them on the Day of Judgment or Lord, they are your people. They are in reality, your servants. Ultimately whatever decision you make concerning them, it is the best and you are not unfair in that decision. Nobody can challenge you, nobody can reject that decision.

00:26:18--> 00:26:28

We learn in a hadith that our beloved or model bluedot on who he narrated that once the Prophet salallahu Salam, he recited some verses, and then he recited this

00:26:29--> 00:27:18

into our they were home for in the home. Were interfit la home for in the den Rosie's with Hakeem. And then he raised his hands and he said Allahumma Almighty, Allah humma OMA to Allah, my people, my nation, what will happen to them? What will happen to them when I go when I leave them? Allahumma Amati on the Day of Judgment, what will happen to my nation? Will they be in a similar state that they have? Nothing that you accept? Everything they did, is invalid? Oh Allah, my nation, my nation, he prayed for us. He prayed for us Aloma Almighty, and he cried profusely, so much so that Allah said all Gibreel go to Mohammed, although Allah is Aware and ask him what makes you cry. So Gibreel

00:27:18--> 00:27:38

came to the prophets of Allah Solomon asked him so Allah's Messenger informed him of what he said, Allahu Allah Almighty, that Allah my nation, what will happen to my people. So Allah said to him, or Gibreel, go to Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam and tell him, we will make you content with regard to your nation, and will not mistreat you.

00:27:39--> 00:28:03

Your nation will make you proud, on the Day of Judgment, we will not mistreat you, because the signifies that there will be many from the ummah of the prophets of Allah sort of who will remain under heat who will remain on the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu. So we need to ask ourselves over here that what are we doing? Where are we? Am I doing something by which the prophets of Allah will be proud of on the Day of Judgment?

00:28:04--> 00:28:19

Or will I be of those people who will be begging that someone intercede for me, someone do something for me so I can be saved? And the Prophet says, Oh Allah, she's your servant. It's up to you. You can forgive her. You can punish her you have the full rate.

00:28:20--> 00:29:15

Powell Allahu Allah will say Heather young, this is the young Pharaoh it will benefit a Saudi cleaner, the truthful ones, sleep will go home, their truthfulness. Allah will announce at that time, that this is the day when the truthful people will benefit from their truth. What truth is this, the greatest truth, the truth of the heat, the truth, of believing in Allah Alone, as far as Malik, as on Rob as marbled as Allah, the greatest reality, the greatest truth, that it is only Allah who deserves worship, those who held on to this truth, those who live this truth who practice this truth, they're the ones who will benefit from it on the Day of Judgment.

00:29:17--> 00:29:33

So what about the heart that is filled with the love of others? That is filled with the fear of others, that is rushing towards everything but Allah? Does it contain truth? Or does it contain falsehood? Check your heart?

00:29:34--> 00:29:40

What does it have the love of Allah? Or aversion to Allah?

00:29:41--> 00:29:59

Is it filled with recognition of Allah? Or is it filled with ignorance of Allah? Is it inclining to Allah? Or is it inclining away from Allah? Because if this truth is missing from our heart, if this truth is missing from our lives, then we

00:30:00--> 00:30:35

will be losers on the Day of Judgment. On the Day of Judgment, the truthful people will benefit from their truth. Heather yomo young Pharaoh sadiya, Tina Slade aka home, the truthful will benefit from their truth. And yes, this refers to primarily the truth of the hate. But after that truth in every way, in a person's words, in a person's actions and what he says is true, what he practices is right? What he does, what he eats is also right, not wrong, because it's all attitude.

00:30:36--> 00:30:58

It's a whole way of life, that some people, they like that which is real, that is what they like to do what is true, what is correct, what Allah likes, what Allah has commanded, what he has legislated, what he has encouraged, and there are other people who like fake things like unreal things, who like falsehood,

00:30:59--> 00:31:44

that is what they're attracted to. So the truth will people will benefit from the greatest truth on the Day of Judgment. The Prophet sallallahu sallam said, on a Kombis set, adhere to the truth you must adhere to the truth, whether it is truthfulness and speech, truthfulness in or Theda or truthfulness in your actions in your way of life. He said adhere to the truth. Why, because the truth leads to righteousness and righteousness leads to paradise. So ultimately, it is truthfulness that leads a person to Jannah and a person continues to speak the truth until his name is written down with Allah as a truthful person. On the other hand, lying what does that lead to sin and sin

00:31:44--> 00:32:08

leads to hellfire, and a person keeps lying keeps practicing falsehood until he is written as a liar near Allah subhanaw taala and after prophethood the greatest rank is off those who are truthful, meaning a beginner will Cydia thing. This is why Abu Bakr as Siddiq probably will have a high status on the Day of Judgment.

00:32:10--> 00:32:56

So truthfulness is what leads a person to many good deeds, it opens the door to a lot of hate in this dunya for a person and when he goes up on them, ultimately, he will benefit on the day of judgment he will be successful on the Day of Judgment. This is why Allah says le home Jana Tajima and daddy Hill and how LA home for them Jana tune our gardens, tragedy, it flows main data from underneath it and how the rivers they will have gardens and Paradise beneath which rivers flow they lived in prisons literally in this dunya because they lived in the confines of truth in this dunya because we see that falsehood is everywhere. That is what is promoted by people that is what is made

00:32:56--> 00:32:57

easy by people.

00:32:58--> 00:33:43

Whether it is eating haram because that's also part of also it's everywhere. But when you want to hold on to the truth to that which is correct to that which is Allah has legislated then you feel as if you are shackled, you are bound. You cannot do much here is a person taking a haram loan and look at them. They're excelling in this dunya. And here you are limiting yourself and still you are confined in a small house that still you do not own. And you don't think that you can own anything, anytime in the near future. So you feel as if you are confined, you're restricted. And you wonder why can I not be freed? Why can Allah subhanaw taala not make this easy for me that Dunya is a test.

00:33:44--> 00:34:02

You bind yourself to Allah obedience, Allah's worship in this dunya Allah will set you free, He will set you free in the gardens of Paradise, which are bigger than this entire earth and the sky combined. You want just a bigger house in this dunya which is nothing compared to gentlemen.

00:34:04--> 00:34:59

The home gymnasts don't pagename and tactical unharmed underneath which rivers flow Holly Dena fie her aboda abiding there eternally lovely Allah who are known, but only Allah who he is pleased who Allah unhung from them what abou and they will be pleased I know from him that Lika that is a LFOs the success and our leam the great they will be given Jana and they are the people with whom Allah will be happy. Notice first Callie the interfere of other abiding in Jana forever. They will never have to move never have to relocate somewhere else because they cannot afford the rent anymore, or because their lease has expired. No. in Jannah your time your stay does not ever come to an end

00:35:00--> 00:35:22

Call Idina fee her Abba forever and ever staying in Jana. And the best thing about the Allahu Anhu will do I know that Allah who will be happy with them, and they will be happy with him. And this is the biggest, the greatest reward that a person can ever, ever have.

00:35:24--> 00:35:26

That Allah is happy with him.

00:35:27--> 00:36:18

But for that, we have to be happy with Allah. First. We have to be happy with his commands with his decisions concerning our lives. We have to be happy with him, and then Allah who will be happy with us. And when Allah is happy with a person, that he is successful, this is why Allah says the early confirms it I believe that is the greatest attainment that is the biggest achievement, that is a great success, meaning there is no success, there is no other achievement that is like this, that Allah is happy with a person because when Allah is happy with a person, then that person is fine, nothing, nothing at all, can harm him, he cannot suffer any any harm. Nothing at all, he is fine

00:36:18--> 00:37:08

forever, then he will live happily ever after. Happily Ever After is when when Allah is happy with you. And this is a reason why we have been given this life that we make Allah happy with us. This is why our desire for any deed that we do is Oh Allah, you become happy with me. I am doing this, you will be happy with me. I'm studying your book, I'm reciting your Kitab I am struggling to understand its meanings. I'm struggling to memorize its meanings, yeah, Allah, you will be happy with me. Because at the end, if Allah is happy, then you're successful. And if you live a life of hard work, and at the end, Allah is not happy with you than what he used was that struggle? What benefit did

00:37:08--> 00:37:39

that effort bring to you? This is why a companion one saw a Christian hermit, someone would abandon this dunya just busy in the worship of Allah. And when he saw him, that companion started to cry, he started to cry, that here is a man struggling, putting in so much effort to worship, but this worship will be rejected on the Day of Judgment. Why? Because Allah will not be happy with him. Why? Because this man is doing *. He is associating partners with Allah.

00:37:40--> 00:38:23

So every effort we do, every effort we put in, in this life of ours should be directed towards what towards the pleasure of Allah, our focus should be your Allah, you will be happy with me. And for that two things are necessary. That Firstly, it is done in the way that Allah likes. And secondly, it is done only for his pleasure. It has to be done in the way that he likes. And what is that way, the way that he has legislated the way that he has shown and secondly, with sincerity, only for his pleasure to seek approval from him, not the people, not anyone in this dunya only Allah subhanaw taala but only Allah who are and whom, what other were and who. And the thing is that in this dunya,

00:38:24--> 00:38:38

sometimes you feel that what you did, because of that, hopefully Allah is happy with you. And then what happens, you make a mistake, which is bound to happen because you're a human being, and you feel like Allah is not happy with you.

00:38:40--> 00:38:41

Have you ever had that feeling

00:38:42--> 00:39:06

that you know that when you missed your prayer, when you've delayed your prayer, when you didn't pray properly? You know, you have that feeling that Allah is not happy with me. This is why you feel distant from him. This is why you sometimes don't have the guts to lift up your hands and make dua to Allah you feel shy. Because you know, the kinds of sins that you've committed.

00:39:07--> 00:39:10

You know, the kinds of things you said the kinds of words you uttered.

00:39:11--> 00:39:21

You know, when we show off or when we hurt someone we know our heart tells us that this is something that has taken me far from Allah, not close to Allah but far from him.

00:39:23--> 00:39:59

So at this time, what should be done that fine? What can I do? I'm such a loser anyway. No, still ask Allah to be happy with you. To give you the ability to turn back to him. Say sorry, go close to him. What's good, what rib do such that and draw close to Allah? You've made a mistake. You feel far you feel Allah is not happy. Then say, in London, Barney farflung me that Oh my Lord, if you're not happy with me, and forgive me so that you can be happy with me in lumped of the

00:40:00--> 00:40:14

Knee far for a knee? I know I have done many sins that I do not deserve your approval. But still Oh Allah, how can I get it without your forgiveness? So forgive me so that you can be happy with me clean me,

00:40:15--> 00:40:18

purify me so that you can be happy with me.

00:40:20--> 00:40:22

Lila he will go somewhere where do you want

00:40:23--> 00:40:45

Linda he for Allah, Monaco dominion, a summer word of the heavens will and the earth woman and whatever fee hin is in them were Hua and He is Allah upon cuddly, every che in thing guardian, always all April, competent.

00:40:46--> 00:40:48

Everything in the heavens and the earth.

00:40:49--> 00:41:06

Who owns it, Allah alone, everything belongs to him. This is why, if he is happy with you, then everything is yours. Because if Allah is happy with a person, that he will give him everything to make him happy. Allah owns everything,

00:41:07--> 00:42:00

the heavens, the earth, and everything within them, every atom, every single object is whose property Allah subhanaw taala has property nobody else's. And the one who has ownership of everything, he is the one who has power over everything, and the one who has power over everything is studied, he is able to execute every will and every decision of his and only he alone is true god are you sorry to sound cannot be God. Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam cannot be God all of them are who servants of Allah alone. The Malik have a similarity well on Wi Fi him, well, who are other cliche encoded and he is over everything capable.

00:42:01--> 00:42:10

And with this and Hamdulillah we conclude Sulochana Ada, which is one of the last sewers to be revealed on the Prophet sallallahu.

00:42:12--> 00:42:21

The surah in which all the commands that are mentioned are final there are more come they are final they're not abrogated

00:42:22--> 00:42:47

the surah begins with Yeah, are you Hello, Nina. Oh, you will have believed and this address is repeated over and over again. Many commands have been given believers are addressed. And at the end we are reminded that everything belongs to Allah, including you and I will Murphy hidden well who are a local militia included he is able to do everything that he wants.

00:42:49--> 00:43:08

And this should make us afraid of him. That if he wants, he can forgive us if he wants, he can question us if he wants, he can punish us. And we cannot be satisfied we cannot be peaceful until and unless we have made him happy. And that can only be when we reach and

00:43:10--> 00:43:16

so we can never be 100% comfortable. Until we know that Allah is happy with us.

00:43:17--> 00:43:44

We can never be 100% Comfortable until we know that Allah is happy with us. Because no blessing of this dunya means Allah is happy with you know, he will give the Quran to people who will ultimately go to hellfire even though we know about the Hadith in which a man will be brought on the Day of Judgment Allah will remind him of the blessings that He gave him and ask him what did you do? And he will say, I learned to your book and I read it

00:43:45--> 00:43:50

I recited it. Allah will say you are lying you did this for the people.

00:43:51--> 00:44:15

So that you would be called such and such and thus you are called and right now you've got nothing so this person will be dragged to the Hellfire well, who are Allah couldn't really show you in continued he is over all things competent. So we can never ever feel satisfied with what we've done with the little that we have accomplished that Yes, I'm okay now. Yes, I'm fine now. No, never.

00:44:17--> 00:44:22

Not until you die. Even the moment of your death at that time.

00:44:23--> 00:44:36

We should be concerned about Allah subhanaw taala being happy with us. This is why it's so important to seek ALLAH subhanaw taala is forgiveness continuously and keep turning towards him to draw closer.

Conde

00:47:04--> 00:47:17

so what is true success? Fame? Is that success in dystonia? No. Is it that you have lots of people following you? Lots of people admiring you.

00:47:18--> 00:47:24

Lots of people looking up to you lots of people knowing your name, who you are what you say is that success?

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

Is it a lot of material possessions? Is that success? No. What is success?

00:47:32--> 00:47:35

That Allah is happy with a person

00:47:36--> 00:47:39

and that person could be unknown.

00:47:40--> 00:47:51

To any other human being, could be someone whom people don't give much importance to, could be someone who does even one deed only for the pleasure of Allah Subhana.

00:47:53--> 00:47:59

Sincerity, love of Allah, having the greatest truth in the heart,

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

said, This is what makes a person truthful.

00:48:06--> 00:48:08

Having the best job in this dunya

00:48:09--> 00:48:19

having a great resume in this dunya having the best relationship with your parents or your spouse, or your friends, that is not success.

00:48:20--> 00:48:35

Having the most beautiful face and dystonia, that is not success. Knowing how to dress the most perfectly before people that is not success. Knowing how to talk most eloquently before people that is not success. This is all duniya

00:48:36--> 00:48:43

Antonia will remain in dunya. It will finish when the dunya finishes, it will finish when you finish.

00:48:44--> 00:48:48

What will come with you is what you did to make your Lord happy.

00:48:50--> 00:49:10

So focus on what on that which will make Allah happy. Because we waste our time imitating others, following others, keeping up with the rest of the dunya and that is just wasting our lives wasting the time that Allah has given us to make him happy.

00:49:11--> 00:49:14

So everything we do, we do it for who?

00:49:15--> 00:49:41

Allah azza wa jal to make him alone, happy with us. Because if he is happy, everything's fine. And if he's not happy, then you can have the whole world. And you could have hundreds and 1000s of people following you. Whether it's on Facebook or Twitter, you may think that you're very famous, the whole world knows you. But still, you are the greatest loser if Allah is not pleased with you.

00:49:42--> 00:50:00

So your mission in life, your goal in life is what? Make my lord happy with me. Your greatest desire is what? That Oh Allah, Be happy with me. Oh Allah, you will be pleased with me. Well

00:50:00--> 00:50:06

whatever I'm doing, these are small efforts, broken efforts, incomplete efforts.

00:50:07--> 00:50:10

But oh Allah do it for you. So you be happy with me.

00:50:12--> 00:50:24

When someone happy with you, because we're talking a lot about Allah subhanaw taala being happy with someone. Think about it. When do you make someone happy? When do you please your boss, your teacher, your mom?

00:50:25--> 00:50:31

When do they say I'm really happy with you today? I'm really happy with what you've done when?

00:50:33--> 00:50:39

When they like what you've done? Yes. When you do something they did not expect out of you? Yes.

00:50:41--> 00:50:43

You do it in the way that they like? Yes.

00:50:45--> 00:50:49

Basically, they will be happy when you've done what they asked you to do.

00:50:51--> 00:51:42

Even if it was something very small, we think to make someone happy you have to climb Mount Everest or something. No, it may be very, very small and apparently insignificant. But if it is what they asked you to do, then they will be happy with you. If you ask someone to bring you a glass of water, and they bring you a glass of water, but it is only half full, they brought you water. But is it what you want it? No, you wanted a full glass of water. And if they bring a full glass of water, they do exactly what you told them to do. They complete they do what you assign them, then you will be very, very happy with them. It's only a glass of water. Only one glass of water not climbing

00:51:42--> 00:51:43

Mount Everest.

00:51:44--> 00:52:29

But it can make you very happy. So just like that, if we want a lot to be happy with us, then we have to do the first thing that Allah commanded us to do in the sutra, which is yeah, you Lolita Avenue. Oh for Villa record, fulfill your commitments, fulfill your promises, the back to the promises, the commitments that you've made with Allah fulfill them, because when you will fulfill them, then Allah will be happy with you. And whatever commands he has given to us. There are what in a way, a promise that we've made with him a commitment that we've made with them. Because when we say I am a Muslim, that means Oh Allah, I submit to you, whatever you tell me, I'll do that. So

00:52:29--> 00:52:33

doing that will make Allah subhanaw taala happy with us.

00:52:34--> 00:52:42

So this is why we cannot neglect we cannot leave anything that Allah has commanded us anything.

00:52:43--> 00:52:47

Whether it is the one prayer out of the five prayers that we find difficult to perform,

00:52:49--> 00:53:16

or something else, whatever it is, when Allah has commanded it, when we do it, we will make Allah happy. What do we learn in the Hadith could see that my servant does not draw near to me, by doing anything except for the act that I have made compulsory upon him, the felt actions when a person performs them, then he draws close to Allah, what does that mean? That Allah is happy with him.

00:53:18--> 00:53:28

So never neglect anything that Allah has commanded, because that is your chance to make your Lord happy with you, that is your chance to be successful.

00:53:30--> 00:53:37

And if you do everything else in this world, but as something that Allah has not asked you to do, that won't bring you Allah's pleasure.

00:53:38--> 00:53:51

So may Allah subhanaw taala give us all the ability to focus on what is important. What will really make Allah's panel data happy with us, because ultimately that is our concern.

00:53:53--> 00:54:33

When we were reading those ideas about you don't Asara and like you were mentioning that they worship so much. They devote themselves as their religious practice that they devote Lavanya to devote themselves for Allah subhanho wa Taala their whole lives. An example is coming in my mind that and it was relating it to the Muslims as well, that we do so much effort, like it's like participating in a race on a track, and you really want to win it and you do so much effort to win it. You put all your heart, your body, your soul in it, to win it and at the end of the track, you realize that this is not the right track, then what's the use of all that effort? So I mean, even

00:54:33--> 00:54:59

for ourselves being a Muslim, we always claim that yes, we love Allah. But I was listening to a clip by recently on Juma prayer that you himself, he said, a very thought provoking thing. And that small sentence was kind of really stirred something in my mind that do we ever sit alone? And we think about we reflect we ponder upon this thing. That yes, we claim that we love Allah. We say five

00:55:00--> 00:55:17

prayers we fast we praise a god. But do we ever think that does Allah love us? evaluate yourself according to this statement that Allah loves us? That's the whole point in Quran Am I worth loving? Am I worthy of Allah's love? I

00:55:18--> 00:55:41

haven't done anything to when Allah subhanaw taala is love? What am I doing on a daily basis to keep Allah happy with me, salam ala, I was thinking about the DUA to be lined up and mobile Islam was supposed to say this, every even in modern living, we are saying to Allah, we are pleased with you. So Allah subhanaw taala, he said in Surah Baqarah

00:55:42--> 00:55:51

asked me, I will give you Subhanallah if we asked him if we asked him, we said we please receive he will be pleased with us. We have to keep saying for Allah.

00:55:52--> 00:56:33

Allah, Allah will be pleased with us. Because when someone happy with you, when you are happy with them, but if you are upset all the time, moody all the time, complaining all the time, then no matter who you are, they cannot be happy with you. Even if they're your children, or your parents or your spouse, if you're complaining and refusing to do what they're asking you because you're unhappy with them, then they'll never be happy with you. I was just thinking how you were mentioning that we can never be certain that we've attained Allah's pleasure until we have died. And we have reached out now because until then we never know. It's just a path that passed in my mind. We think, no,

00:56:33--> 00:56:37

yes, 100 I pray five times a day. But every single time that thought comes I think.

00:56:38--> 00:57:14

So in that 30 is just way too little mousseline that even those who pray even if you pray five times a day How do you know what you're still that how do you know if Allah actually is accepted your Salah just matter, you don't realize that, you know, maybe I've done something wrong. Maybe I just one second, I thought of something that was completely wrong that displeased Allah and that entire 1015 minutes I spent praying, none of it was accepted. That praying alone is not sufficient. Doing good things alone is not sufficient. At the end of the day, what matters is Did Allah accept it or not? And that depends on the state of your heart.

00:57:15--> 00:57:43

So I'm going to come I was thinking that all of us here today are so lucky because Allah has given us the knowledge of our happily ever after. And if we keep that to ourselves, or if we ignore it, then we're just going to be really, really big losers. And more than those who you know, don't know of it, and they dedicate their lives to that, for us to know it and ignore it, and not pass it on. That's really doing yourself a disservice. Basically.

00:57:44--> 00:58:25

Samaniego, I was thinking about, like how people strive so hard for every single thing. Like when, for example, even if we are taking part in a race, or a marathon or anything, people strive so hard they work so hard for that we're still they're not sure that they're going to win or not. But still Allah Samantha is telling when you follow my commands, when you follow my religion, when you follow what I say the alkyl fossil Azim This is a success and you are so how much do we strive for this? Yes, that the effort that you put in this dunya many times it is that the winner can only be one person. So the chances of losing are really really high. But when a person strives towards Allah

00:58:25--> 00:58:32

with sincerity, with dedication, with honesty, with love, then the inshallah success is there for him.

00:58:34--> 00:58:43

People will end over here Subhanak Allahumma will be home DECA Nisha de la ilaha. Illa. Anta the stuff we wanted to really a Salam or Aleikum, wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuh
