Alladhina Taha, who goes people who took Dena home their religion, law, one, law, one, distraction, will learn even, and play, meaning their religion was all about play and amusement, having fun, amusing themselves, this was their religion. If you think about it religion, what role does it play in a person's life? If a person takes the religion seriously, they have adopted a particular religion, they live by it. So what role does the religion plays in their lives? Does it affect their lives at all? Or no, it does, to an extent, to every extent, think about it, you as a Muslim, your life is dictated by what by the religion of Islam, how much in the way that you dress, in what you

00:00:54--> 00:01:40

eat, in how you eat, right? Everything, you're waking up, you're sleeping, your marriage, you're having children, everything is dictated by what, by the laws of the religion, you eat only that which the religion permits you to eat, you work in a way you earn money in a way that the religion permits you to do so. All right. When you eat food, you say, Bismillah. When you're done with your food, you say Alhamdulillah. All right, when you begin something important, Bismillah five times a day, your routine is disturbed. Why? Because of your prayers in the sense that whatever you're doing has to stop no matter how important it is. You could be really into your assignment, but when it is

00:01:40--> 00:02:33

most of the time, then you have to stop you could be in the middle of an exam even isn't it's all so your entire life is governed by what your religion over here, what do we see that the people of hell are who those whose lives are governed by what play and amusement, meaning their whole life is about having fun. Their goal in life, their purpose in life, everything that they're concerned about in everything that they do is what fun play amusement, they want fun in everything. So those are the people who are following what their desires are Lavina dako, Dena home, Laurie urban, wala one, their religion is what play and amusement having fun. And if you think about it, these days, this is

00:02:33--> 00:03:10

something that is encouraged so much you work. If you study anything, it should be something that you enjoy. If you work somewhere, it should be something that you love you enjoy. Don't just say Follow your heart. Do everything that you like, do you want to study something study you don't study, leave it, because you should only do something that you're very passionate about. Okay, that's good, because it will be easier for you. However, there are many things in life that you may not be passionate about doesn't mean that you leave them. Just because you don't enjoy them. Just because you don't find them to be fun doesn't mean that you leave them. No, because they're still

00:03:10--> 00:03:13

important. Right? Yes.

00:03:15--> 00:03:57

My son, he was telling me yesterday in a school, the teacher told him while you're doing the computer work, I will tell you which music is good listen to this music. And he tell him I have better idea. And I will listen to Raja ramen. I really feel happy, you know? Because they're the they feel like, you know, the dunya it's just about music about fun, but it's not. Yes. And it's amazing. That many times it happens that when children when they're picked up by their parents after school, what's one of the first questions that parents ask their children? Did you have fun? Did you have fun? And what happens? From a very little age children think that school should be fun. And if

00:03:57--> 00:04:38

it's not fun, and they have to sit down and write for half an hour, that's no fun. And if they get homework in which they have to do some readings, that's no fun. If they're made to come something that's no fun, it's boring. So then what happens naturally, they get averse to anything that is serious, and they are inclined to everything that is fun. So they want to watch television. They want to spend time with the computer. They want to watch movies, they want to play games, they want to go out to the park, whatever age doesn't matter, from very little children to big adults even what are they concerned about? Fun, fun, fun. It doesn't mean that having fun is wrong? No. We see

00:04:38--> 00:05:00

that the Prophet sallallahu Sallam also had fun with his family. He raised once with his young wife, right? And he let his wife watch a show. All right, this was something that the Prophet sallallahu Sallam also did, because it's a natural need of human beings. They need time to just relax and take it easy and just you know enjoy themselves. However,

00:05:00--> 00:05:42

For, it doesn't mean that this is something that a person does all the time or every day for multiple hours. Like, for instance, some people, they think it's almost an obligation that they have to watch television. And if they don't get to watch television, it says other days in complete. Every weekend, they have to watch a movie every day, they have to go out somewhere at least once a week, they have to go out somewhere with their friends, or they have to go to the mall. It's like, fob on them. They've made it wardrobe on themselves. And if one day, they're not able to do something that they like, that whole day is what a write off that whole day is what no fun that

00:05:42--> 00:06:32

whole day is boring. The people of hellfire are those who spend their lives, fulfilling their desires. The people of Jannah are those who hold off on fulfilling their desires. Why? Because time is short. Life is very short. And every moment is important. So they differ, enjoyment and fulfillment of desires. Until when the hereafter there is a balance. They do what is necessary at the same time they also have fun, but in moderation. The people have held their characteristic is what Alladhina de Hado Dina home law one will or even they took their religion as low and let Him will hurt him and it deceived them I'll hire to the life a duniya of this world, the life of this

00:06:32--> 00:07:17

world, deceive them, because they thought this is everything I have to fulfill this desire of mine, I have to have fun. I cannot miss this. I cannot miss that. The life of this world deceived them because they thought this life was very important. And as a result, they forgot the acapella and when they forgot the acapella what will happen in the hellfire, when they will ask Can we please have some water? Can we please have some food? They will be forgotten, they will not be responded. Allah says polyoma So today meaning in the hereafter on the Day of Judgment none sir home we shall forget them noon seen yet Miss Yan to forget. We shall forget them today. Comma just as Nestle they

00:07:17--> 00:08:06

forgot liquor meeting yo me him their day had that this just as they forgot this meeting, meeting with Allah meeting with their final result. They forgot about it in the life of the world. Today, we will forget them. This doesn't mean that Allah will literally forget them because Allah doesn't forget anything. liability. Robbie? Well, I answer my Lord does not make an error. Nor does he forget. What it means is that he will abandon them. Because once you've abandoned something, it's as though you have forgotten it. Once you've left something, you don't attend to it, you don't respond to it. You don't take care of it, then what does it mean that you forgotten it? So just like that,

00:08:06--> 00:08:50

they will cry, they will scream they will beg for help, they will beg to be taken out. But not even one plea. Not even one request will be answered in this dunya what happens when a person calls upon Allah, even if he's very sinful, even if he's consumed haram what happens? Allah does respond to the call in some way or the other. You know the Hadith in which we learned about the man whose clothing is haram whose food is haram body is haram. And he calls upon Allah the Prophet sallallahu sallam said, Then How can his prayer be answered? He didn't say that his prayer shall not be answered. Because there is a possibility that Allah will show mercy to him. There is a possibility it's up to

00:08:50--> 00:09:39

Allah, but Allah can show mercy to him if he wants. But we see that in the hereafter. No matter how much people beg Allah, they will not be responded fully yo man and Sir home camera nasally call a yo me him whether you shall be dealt with in the way that you responded to Allah. These people they didn't respond to Allah. So Allah subhanaw taala will deal with them in the same way. Allah will not respond to them either. You know in this world in this life, five times a day we are called call to speak to Allah subhana wa Tada. The Prophet sallallahu sallam said that one one of you is praying slower than he is unary G or a boy who he is talking privately with his Lord you nadji Munna Jett is

00:09:39--> 00:09:59

a secret private conversation that no third person hears salah is a meeting with Allah, a conversation with Allah because when you ask for something Allah answers when you say something. Allah responds when you recite Surah Fatiha and you say Alhamdulillah blasphemy. Allah responds to that by saying Hamidah

00:10:00--> 00:10:02

ne RBD My servant praised me.

00:10:03--> 00:10:51

Hola response to you. It's a private conversation. And mumble hottie. He mentioned this in the chapter off Manuel Kaito Salah in his collection, he mentioned this hadith in the timings of prayers, because when the time of prayer has come in, then what it means is that you are being called to talk to Allah. Allah is calling you to talk to him. And if a person does not respond to that invitation, he doesn't go for his appointment with his Lord, then he is like a person who has forgotten his Lord. He doesn't care about the fact that Allah is calling him. So on the Day of Judgment, what will happen when this person will call Allah 100,000 times a day? More than that, a

00:10:51--> 00:11:08

million times a day he will call upon Allah, Allah one respond to him, because Allah will abandon them, just as they abandoned remembering Allah, just as they forgot Allah, Allah will forget them that day. So think about it. How much is it that we remember Allah today?

00:11:09--> 00:11:56

Allah says women, and that which Ken who they used to be at now with our verses, he had your how don't they reject your tribunals from Jehovah Jim had done and Jehovah's to reject something. After recognizing it. They recognize the truth, they knew it, they understood it, yet they didn't accept it. So what will happen on the Day of Judgment, Allah will ignore them. In a hadith which is in Makati. We learn that on the Day of Judgment, Allah subhanaw taala will say to a servant, olam Oza witchcraft. Did I not get you married? Did I not give you a spouse? And I'm okra Inca, did I not grant you honor in your life? Did I not make horses and camels subservient for you? Meaning so many

00:11:56--> 00:12:45

things of this world working for you, they listen to you. You get into the car, you put the key and you start and it starts, you drive it and it drives? Did I not allow you to become a leader and a master did not give you so many things as your own your possessions your things? Did I not do all this for you? He will say yes. Allah will say, Did you think that you will meet me? Did you ever think that you will meet me one day? And that person will say No, I never thought about my meeting with you. I never paid attention to that. I never worked for that I never prepared for that. Allah will say, then this day, I will forget you just as you had forgotten me. You forgot me. Despite the

00:12:45--> 00:12:58

fact that I gave you so much everything you have. I gave it to you, but you forgotten me. So today, no matter how much you call upon me, I will forget you. Your prayers, your requests will not be responded to at all.

00:12:59--> 00:13:00

How sad.

00:13:01--> 00:13:20

How sad that a person brings us upon himself. Reflect on your own life. When is it that we forget Allah? If you reflect on this Hadees the first thing that is mentioned is did I not get you married? Many times it happens with people that when they get married,

00:13:21--> 00:14:03

who do they forget? Allah soprano. How that now the spouse comes first. The spouse comes first for many couples, what happens we're cuddling, can't be bothered to get up and pray. We're going out to have dinner. Come on, we can go and disturb our dinner and pray our salah. We're relaxing. We cannot recite the Quran right now. I have to speak to my husband, I have to speak to my wife. We're having a good time. I don't have time to recite my morning with God my evening of God. Right after the salon. I have to sit with my husband. I have to prepare this for him. I have to prepare that for him. I cannot even say Subhan Allah Alhamdulillah Allah Allahu Akbar 10 times each. I can't even do

00:14:03--> 00:14:10

that. I cannot even recite it to Kirsty because I have to speak to my husband. My husband needs me I need my husband.

00:14:11--> 00:14:55

Many times it happens that when people get married, they forget Allah subhanaw taala their prayers are affected. Their commitment with the religion of Allah is affected. They cannot continue to study the Quran because now I'm married. I cannot continue to wear the hijab because now I am married. I have to dress up the best that I can with the most Xena with the most amount of makeup and I'm going outside even though I know that I should cover my beauty. Why? Because I'm married. My husband likes me to do that. I will pluck my eyebrows I will shave them even though the prophets of Allah Islam curse such women who do that? Because my husband likes that. I want for my son now because my

00:14:55--> 00:14:56

husband is calling me.

00:14:57--> 00:14:59

Many times people forget Allah

00:15:00--> 00:15:09

Because of their spouses, and what happens after the spouses, children, as the children come, the women, the little bit of religion that was left in their lives, even that is gone.

00:15:10--> 00:15:52

For weeks, Quran is not recited, for weeks, drawers are not made, Salah is rushed, because my child is everything to me, my child is very, very important to me, it's very good. You should be concerned about the well being of your child. However, what's going to happen when you are so attached to your child, you give them everything that you want, you become so possessive about him. And when he grows up, and he moves away from you, then what are you left with? Remember that everything of this world, including the people of this world, they are selfish. They're selfish. Today, they're with you. Tomorrow, they will leave you

00:15:53--> 00:16:20

today, you think that they're everything to you. And tomorrow, they'll show you that they don't care for you. Many mothers, they cry, they weep, because their own children, they get married and they move away. Now their children are busy in their own lives. And they don't have time to even speak to their moms for five minutes, that same mother who dedicated every second of her life to her child, now what's happening, her child is busy in his own life.

00:16:21--> 00:17:06

And the mother is left alone. And then she cannot tolerate that it's so difficult for her to accept it, that somebody else is now important to my son, to my daughter. If she had remained attached to her Lord, she would not be suffering so much today. I'm not saying that don't care for your children care for them. But at the same time, realize that you have to remember your Lord. loving other people doesn't mean that you cut off from Allah subhanaw taala that you don't pray that you lessen your prayers, you shorten them, you rush through them, you don't have time to remember Allah. No, we're ladina Armano Ashad do hoobler They're our most intense in their love for Allah through every

00:17:06--> 00:17:48

single stage of life. Whether they have children, or they don't have children, whether they're single, or married or divorced, no matter what stage of life they're in, no matter what they're going through their love, the strongest love they have is for who Allah and if a person lives like this, but in the Hereafter, you will have everything that he wants, then he will be remembered by Allah, because he remembered Allah today, Allah will never forget him. So even in this world, Allah subhanaw taala sends us examples of how we will be alone. In the end, you know, when your best friend moves away, or your you know, your auntie your grandparents, like when you leave people

00:17:48--> 00:18:23

behind, when people leave you, each time you move to a higher level of education, you leave your old friends behind, because you all move so far away. Even in this world, we're given examples that in the end, we're only going to have a less time with Yes, because he is there with you always, always, there will be people in your lives whom you are so close to. But then within a year, you've lost touch with them completely. You haven't spoken to them for weeks. And while you were friends with them, you thought that they were everything in your life. So yesterday, I was just talking to someone and they were saying they need to move out or whatnot. And they have to work really, really

00:18:23--> 00:19:01

more hard like seven days a week to make that kind of money. So I was telling them no you don't need to you need to consistent on your Salah and ask Allah to give baraka and whatever you're doing. And then a person was getting really upset that this is the necessities I'm doing this for my children my wife. So I was telling them that really do you really love your children wife so much that you are ready to be stuck, or burned and hellfire and be suffered in the grave? You really love those children and why so much that you're ready for that punishment. So sometimes I think people excused themselves by saying I'm doing this for my children and this usually, but they're not they're doing

00:19:01--> 00:19:42

for their own desires. And it's possible that a person loves her family so much, but then they should remember that this family is not going to be there with me forever. My children will never burn for me. They will never suffer for me. They will never go in the grave for me. I have to go myself. So I have to remember Allah now. So that Allah will remember me later. So I really go. Um, there was one self Quran teacher and she implemented a verse from surah Taha, and she always like she loved the last time more than anybody. So, um, one day was the whole time and her she knew her husband was coming. So she had regular like, make food for him. But she saw the time was coming and

00:19:42--> 00:19:59

she remembered that I and she said to herself, you know, I should go and pray because I don't know if I'll be here. So she went, she prayed and her husband came home when he was angry. He kept calling her name, but when he said that she died in such to what I'll call the Jeep now whom be keytab and certainly, we brought

00:20:00--> 00:20:49

them a book, we came to them with a book meaning we sent them a book. People weren't left in ignorance. Allah sent a reminder, a book full of reminders, full of advice and this book for Salah who we have detailed meaning explained it in detail, or Allah or element or knowledge meaning based on knowledge, evidence. This Quran is not full of false things or assumptions. No, it's based on facts. Who then it's a guidance what armor and a mercy Lycoming for a people you may know they believe. So this means that on the Day of Judgment, a person cannot present any excuses that Oh Allah, I didn't know. No, because Allah already sent knowledge and it's our duty to find out. One is

00:20:49--> 00:21:33

that a person makes a mistake out of ignorance. And the other is that he makes a mistake, because of incompetence or ineptitude, that he doesn't put in the required effort where he is able to put the effort. And because of that, he ends up making a mistake. So when he makes a mistake in this way, then he is responsible, he is guilty. Allah has sent the Knowledge Center reminders, and if we don't change our lives, if we don't remember Allah, then it's only our fault. Allah says hell are young balloon are they waiting? Are they waiting in that except Wheeler who it's result? It's actualization, its fulfillment. That wheel is from the root letters Hamza, while lamb Ol, oldest to

00:21:33--> 00:22:21

return to the origin, a one one first. So the first is the beginning the origin, so onus to return to the beginning the origin, and that wheel has two meanings, one interpretation meaning the original intended meaning of something, all right, and secondly, the fulfillment of something, when something actually comes true, it happens. So it was said that such and such will happen when it actually happens. That is, it's that will, it's actualization, its fulfillment, because it reminds you of what was said originally. So what was said originally, it will come to happen. So Allah says, What are these people waiting for? Are they waiting for its fulfillment? Meaning the fulfillment of

00:22:21--> 00:23:09

what the Quran warns us about? What does the Quran warn us about the Day of Judgment? Hellfire tells you about Jana. What are we waiting for? Why aren't we changing our actions? Why aren't we remembering Allah? The way we should remember him? Why are we not giving the heck of Allah? The way we should give him help? Why not? What are we waiting for? Are we waiting for the day of judgment to actually happen before our eyes? Holly Aluna Illa taweelah Yoma en de yet D it will come that we know who it's actualization its interpretation, meaning its fulfillment, in other words will come true. Your Gulu he will say who a Levine and assume and Pablo, those people who had forgotten it

00:23:09--> 00:23:58

from before nesu they forgot it from this young man other before meeting before in the life of this world. They had forgotten the Day of Judgment. So when the day of judgment will come, they will say but the judge, certainly they came loose Sulu, messengers, Rob Bina of Our Lord will help with the truth. Then they will admit that yes, the messengers of Our Lord certainly brought the truth. The Quran was true. What the Prophet said a lot of Saddam warned us about was true. But this confession now, admitting that now isn't going to help them know. So they will say for her, so is Lana for us Minshew. Farah from intercessors, any intercessors shofar up Laurel of Shaffir, who is Shaffir, one

00:23:58--> 00:24:45

who intercedes on behalf of the other requests on their behalf, that please forgive them, please let them go. Or please excuse them, please accept, you know what they're offering. So they will say is there anyone who can request on our behalf, any prophet, any righteous person, any angel who can ask Allah to please forgive us? Because our requests now they're not being heard? So is there anyone who will speak for us today? Like in this world, if a person is suffering in silence, and the majority of the people have forgotten them? Still there is that one person, that one organization, that one human rights activist, that will continue to advocate for that person for justice to be done to

00:24:45--> 00:24:59

them? Right, there's someone or the other who remembers them. So one or the other? Who will keep reminding people about them, but the people in Hellfire is there anyone? Anyone at all? Who will request for them? No one

00:25:00--> 00:25:47

FlashFire Olona so they intercede for us, none at all. In total Madatha we learn from it and for whom Shiva or the chef or even the intercession of the intercessors, it will not benefit them at all. They will say, Oh, or if that's not going to happen, then at least not do, we shall be returned meaning to the life of this world for narmala. So we will do Ira other than ality which can now we use to normal we do. Meaning if we could be given just one more chance sent back to the world, then we will do very different actions, we will live very differently. We will leave all our bad habits, we will leave our children our money, our friends who distracted us, no, we will only be concerned

00:25:47--> 00:26:36

about Allah. They will say one chance, but would it be granted? No. Allah says Allah zero and for sa home. In fact, they will have lost themselves, they will lose themselves on that day, meaning they will have no authority to do anything for themselves. If you lose someone, then what does it mean? You can't do anything to help it. You can't do anything to help them you can't do anything with them. So just like that, their bodies their lives will no longer remain theirs, meaning they won't be able to come out of hellfire they won't be able to change their situation will learn home and it will be lost from them. Matt can we have the rune that which they used to invent all the false

The

men are there for SEO

00:28:20--> 00:28:52

many times it happens that we forget to remember ALLAH, why because we defer we delayed. Like for example, in the morning we say, I will do my car, maybe in half an hour. Right before breakfast, I'll do my car. Right after breakfast. I'll do my car on the way to class. But what happens we keep deferring and deferring. Because of who sometimes our children sometimes our spouses, sometimes ourselves, sometimes our food. And at the end of the day, we realize we did not remember Allah at all.

00:28:54--> 00:29:36

So what is it that we need to remember that time when we're deferring that? No, I have to do it now. I have to make time for it now. Because if I'm not doing it right now, how do I think that later, I will have more time, because with every passing hour, life only gets busier. You only have more to do with every passing day your responsibilities increase. If a woman thinks right now, you know I'm going to have my children and then inshallah afterwards, I'll do something. When you have your children what's going to happen, you're only going to get busier, you have one child, and then that will be followed by another another How much ever Allah plans to give you but with each child, your

00:29:36--> 00:29:59

responsibilities are increasing. Many women think I have a baby right now, every two hours I have to nurse the baby. You know what, right now they're only nursing within six months, they will eat solid foods as well. And then after that, they will have you know their own taste. So they'll be very picky about food. And then you won't have one you'll have more to deal with. So life will only get busier. Remember

00:30:00--> 00:30:02

Allah now in what you're doing,

00:30:03--> 00:30:04

you're just

00:30:08--> 00:30:53

having a great value in the eyes of Allah.
