Allah has taken from the believers something and what is that?
What is it that Allah has taken from the believers, their lives and their properties? Why? Bn nella homall Jana, because he offers to them Jana, in return. You give your life and your money to Allah. Live your life the way Allah wants you to
do with your money, what Allah wants you to spend your life, earning the pleasure of Allah, serving Allah, his religion, striving with your time, with your energy with your talent, in what cause the cause of Allah and your money also spend it in what cause in the Cause of Allah. And what do you have guaranteed in return? Jana be Anila Hummel Jana has an old bursary. He said, Allah bought our lives, although he created them. And he bought our properties, although he bestowed them on us.
Allah, Al Karim, the generous, he gave us our lives, he gave us our money. And then He offers us, you give me this life, you give me this money, and you'll get something much, much better. Eternal life in Jannah, and eternal pleasure and happiness in Jannah also, but what happens? We think that this worldly life, this worldly enjoyment is so good that we don't want to give it up. But what do we see you give this up? Firstly, Allah is the One who gave you and you give this up for his sake, and he will give you something that is far better, something that is far greater. So the price of Jana is what? Life once life once outcome of life. So whatever we are doing in our lives, it is with
these actions, that we can acquire Jana, because it is with these actions that we Please Allah, and it is with the pleasure of Allah that a person can enter Jannah. So think about it. What are our lives worth? Think about it with this time with these actions with this life? I want to make it to Jana. Would anyone award me a university degree even with these actions of mine? Think about it. Would we get something that has worldly importance with the actions that we're doing? If we cannot go far in dunya? With the kind of life that we're living? than how do we think that we can attain high levels of dollar jet with the kind of life we're living?
So what is needed then? More? Isn't? More action, more sincerity, more beauty, more effort, more striving?
And what are the best ways of striving? Those that are mentioned in the following I? And what are those actions, who is mentioned who is described as a boon? Those who do Toba regularly who fall who make mistakes, and who do Toba constantly turning back to Allah. And you see doba is for repentance from a sin. But doba is also in order to attain high dollar jacks in order to get closer to Allah subhanho wa taala. Like, for example, the Prophet salallahu Salam. Didn't he seek forgiveness from Allah so many, many, many times a day, didn't he? Yeah. Did he commit sins like other people do? No way. So why is it that he would seek forgiveness repeatedly? Why would he do Toba repeatedly What
was the reason behind that? Because when a person does Toba, he is going closer to Allah. A doba literally means a rule joueur to return. So even those who are always returning, going back to Allah, Alavi Dune, those who do rabada al hammy doon, those who praise the praise who Allah subhanaw taala when? In the morning when they wake up Alhamdulillah one lady here Anna Vardaman EMAT Anna for LA Hindu Chu. The morning the day begins with what how Alhamdulillah right. Then, after eating something, what do they say? That was nice.
Yeah, or a big bird? Yeah, after eating
Hand Alhamdulillah Hilah the author Arma wasa was so well the who were Grl Allah Who Maharajah there are so many other areas so many of God to be recited after eating that mentioned the hunt of Allah the praise of Allah. So Allah How am I doing after attaining any blessing Alhamdulillah in the morning in the evening at every step. Alhamdulillah Assa T Hoon, those who travel for what purpose?
For what purpose in order to learn in order to teach in order to worship Allah subhanaw taala right, for the sake of Allah, the Sahaba they traveled for many expeditions, right? They went to Bethel, they went to or heard, correct, they went to Haber, they went all the way to the book. Why? For the sake of Allah, they went for Umrah to Makkah why to worship Allah Hajj is all about what traveling you don't just stay in Morocco, right? What do you do you go to Morocco, you go to Mina you constantly on the go, see haha, but remember that a say one one meaning is those who travel and there is another meaning to it. Those who fast those who fast because when a person is fasting, then
again, he's keeping away from what from what he does regularly. Just like when you're traveling, your daily routine is gone, finished, right? You're uncomfortable, you are not able to eat you are busy doing something else. And likewise, when a person is fasting, he cannot do the things that he regularly does. And of the major things is what
food Alright, so a say on a walk your own those who do record a sad you don't those two sides, the me Runa Bill Maher Wolf, those who command that which is right. Why, because they want the best for others also. Because you see, when you feel that something is good, and you really strongly believe in it, then you cannot keep it to yourself, then you cannot close your eyes when somebody is avoiding what is good. Like for example, if there is something delicious at the table,
and you have a serving of it, and you see that your friend is not eating? What will you do?
Her choice? Good for me, I can have more? Yeah, what are you going to do? Go have it? Should I bring it for you? And then you see still she's not had? What are you going to you're going to go get her serving habit. It's really good. You won't regret it just one bite, right? Because you know how good it is. So likewise, when a person experiences the sweetness of faith, when a person enjoys a good deed, when he tastes it sweetness, or though then what happens? He cannot keep it to himself. He wants more for himself and he wants for others the same thing also. So I'll am you're gonna Bill Maher roof. But you know what? I'm gonna build my roof. If somebody is telling others about
something good. Okay, first of all, they're struggling. Right? Because it's difficult to tell somebody about something good. Many times it's difficult, right? Because people will be very happy if you tell them about good food, or a nice recipe or a nice hairstyle or a good deal somewhere in shopping. People are very eager to know about these things. But when it comes to the matters of religion, we have these barriers around us. Don't tell me I know everything. Right? So I'm gonna build my roof. Remember, nobody can do a medical model unless there are people who can accept it. So if somebody is telling us about something good, then what should we do? get offended? How dare she
say that to me? Yeah, get offended. No realize that this person wants the best for us. And I'm gonna build my roof. One now who now will Mancha and those who forbid that which is wrong? will have you lonely who do the law and those who guard the limits set by Allah What does she mean and give good news to those people who believe give good news. Good news of what?
Jana a reward. Now if you think about it, living this kind of lifestyle, what kind of lifestyle that first of all, you're so conscious about your actions, your words, your movements, that at every step, you wonder, did I do something wrong? And so you're saying stuff with Allah stuff, but Allah stuff with Allah, like, do you see people who are so relaxed and what they do? They say something harsh to someone and they don't mind at all. They miss their prayer, and they're going about their day perfectly fine and
Here you are, you missed your sunnah and you're worried? Is there a difference? So this kind of lifestyle which is described over here, it's not comfortable isn't being of attire even means that your heart is always worried at that a boon allow the dune doing a better constantly, consistently every day, you know, doing Earth God in the morning performing your Salah reciting the Quran, and then you know doing something productive, you're on the go, basically. And there there are people who are sleeping in, they haven't even prayed Fudger or they just spread the budget and ran back into bed. And here you are, your eyes are closing and still you're forcing yourself to stay awake
and read your Quran. It's a different lifestyle. You have to really fight against yourself. And I'll be doing then if you think, how am I doing? Same thing. People do something good. They love taking credit for themselves. And this kind of lifestyle. What does it teach us anything good happens. Remember him? Thank him first, uh, say home, leaving your comfort going out in order to learn in order to teach in order to worship Allah. People might say you're crazy. Just like the people who want to the book, other said to them Don't go out in the heat, isn't it? People discourage them. So if you think about it, it is difficult to live like this. But what does Allah say? What does she
really mean? Yes, it's difficult. It's a very different lifestyle. But you've given your life to Allah, you want Jana in return, you're not settled with the pleasure of this dunya you want something that's much, much greater. And we see this in this dunya. Also someone who wants to go far, they don't live like average people live. They have different habits, right? Different lifestyle completely. If you think about it, successful people. If you ever read up, you know any article on different kinds of people who've been very successful in their lives, one of the things you will notice is they have a very good and consistent morning routine. Morning Routine. It doesn't
matter whether they're CEOs, or their yoga gurus or what they are, doesn't matter. Whatever they're successful in, it's because they have a consistent morning routine. That means they're up before average people are up. They have started their day much before typical people will. So when do they get up six o'clock in the morning, five o'clock in the morning, not because they have to pray Fudger because majority of these people are not even Muslim. Why? Because they're going to read the news, right? They're going to read a book, they're going to do their exercise, they're going to do their meditation, they're going to go for their walk, they're going to go for their jog, right. And by the
time they leave for work 730 A big chunk of their work is already done. This is what makes them successful in their life. Successful people have better life habits, better habits, which average people don't have, which is why there's such a difference when it comes to their result. But if a person is striving like this for the sake of Allah, then you know what, he's not just successful here. He's also successful there and forever. In these we learned the Prophet sallallahu sallam said, Allah be exalted says, by my honor, I will not combine for my servant. Do security's nor to fears what does that mean?
He said, If he feels secure for me in this world, I will make him fearful on the day that I gather my servants. And if he fears me in this world, I will make him secure on the day that I gather my servants. So what does this how are these fellas that if a person is living this life, being fearful of ALLAH, so this is why he is of attack evil, alive, we do not have a tuna sat at home, then you know what, on the Day of Judgment, this fear will be what security for him than Allah will grant him security. And if a person lives this life fearlessly, without any fear of Allah, then what will happen on the day of judgment, He will be full of fear. So either we discipline ourselves now and
remember Allah and be careful about what we do and about our hereafter or we choose the other path The choice is ours. But realize what is more beneficial. Realize what it is that will really take a person to success. Recitation again

hotties we learned the Prophet sallallahu sallam said that on the Day of Judgment, the best servants near Allah will be a homophone. Ultimately you born those who fulfill their promises their commitments their word. And I'll Mata you born who do it well, who do it good, who do it beautifully. So a promise transaction is always both sided. Right? Allah subhanaw taala is offering us a deal. Give me your life, your money, and I'll give you agenda. So we have to do something in return. Right? And what is it that we have to do? What is mentioned in these if at the Iban I'll be doing and how am I doing sir at home? So now think about it. Am I have L moon and multi year goon?
How well? Am I fulfilling these
tasks? How often is it that I do Toba? How regular? Am I in my IrDA? How much do I praise Allah? How consistent are my record my sujood?
When I see someone neglecting Margo, do I tell them when I see someone doing Mancha? Do I remind them? Am I concerned about the hadith of Allah? Or am I only concerned about my rights and what I need?
So think about it, the best people on the Day of Judgment, the most nearest of people to Allah will be who will move on, ultimately Cubone
let's continue. McCann and Linda biggie. It is not for the profit, meaning it is not permissible for the profit, it does not befit a profit, while Lavina Manu and also the believers, it is not allowed for the Prophet, nor is it allowed for the believers. What a year staff rule Mushrikeen that they seek forgiveness for the Mushrikeen those who are associating partners with Allah, committing the greatest sin. greatest sin. You don't have these we learned that the son of Adam, he abuses me, he hurts me how? By associating partners with Allah. So the one who's doing Schilke it does not befit a believer nor a prophet to seek forgiveness for such people. Well, okay, no. And even if they are,
who are these machete cane, only CORBA close relatives, even if these Mushrikeen or close relatives, it does not be fit the believers to seek forgiveness for them. mimbar the after man that the Bayona law home it became evident to them, what became evident to them and the homeless horrible dream that indeed they are the companions of the Blaze. Now you see, if a person is a mushrik and they're alive, then as long as they are alive, we are hopeful that inshallah one day Allah will guide them. Right. And this is the reason we always make dua for them that May Allah guide them, May Allah guide them. Right we see that Abu Sufian who wrote the Allahu Anhu Wasn't there a time when he opposed the
prophets of Allah has inflicted harm on the Muslims. Khalid bin Walid Radi Allahu Anhu he inflicted such harm upon the Muslims at the Battle of aha
Like nobody ever did. And what happened? That same Khalid bin Walid, one day, he came to the Prophet sallallahu Sallam embracing Islam, and he became the sword of Allah. Right? So, a mushrik. As long as he's alive, we are hopeful we make dua for them, no matter what atrocities they have committed, we still remain hopeful of them. However, when it is evident that they are going to be people of the fire, and when is that evident? When they die in the state of shock, then it is not behoove neither a Prophet nor a believer to ask Allah to forgive such a person. Because the reality is that we are not more merciful than Allah. He is a rock man, the most merciful and we are just a little bit
merciful. He is more merciful than us. So if he has decided that someone should be of the people of the blaze because they died committing the greatest sin, then who are we to ask Allah to forgive them? It's not permissible for us. You see, the Prophet said a lot of times uncle Abu Talib at his deathbed, the prophets of Allah Addison was urging him say Allah, Allah, Allah so that I can at least do something for you. But what happened? I will Talib listen to his friends. And he said no, I am on the religion of my forefathers. So, could the Prophet sallallahu Sallam seek forgiveness for him? No.
The Prophet sallallahu Sallam asked permission from Allah to go visit the grave of his mother, Amina. He was given the permission.
And then he asked permission to seek forgiveness for her. But he was not given the permission
because she died committing shit.
So it doesn't matter. Even if they are little CORBA uncle of the Prophet, mother of the Prophet, it doesn't matter.
As long as they're alive, we have a chance that a we strive to convey the message to them the truth to them, and B keep making dua for them. But once they die in that state, then the matter is not in our hands anymore. And as far as people say about the case of Ibrahim or s&m that Ibrahim or listen I'm his father was also much today, but Ibrahim may draw for him. So Allah subhanaw taala clarifies Wilma Cana and it was not what is the fellow Ibrahim the seeking forgiveness of Ibrahim for Julio OBE for his father. Meaning why is it that Ibrahim Ernestina was seeking forgiveness for his father? It was only because inlet except I'm from Merida 10 A promise what are the hair he had promised it a
year who him who his father, meaning it was because of a promise that He had made with his father. What promise that he would seek forgiveness for him. And this is the reason why Ibrahima Hassan sought forgiveness for his father.
Like we learn that Ibrahima listen when his father rejected him and told him to leave otherwise he would kill him. Ibrahim Reyes and I'm left but he promised at that time saying a stock Pharaoh laka Rob be I will seek forgiveness for you from my Lord. In total Montana. I have four although this is mentioned in our cola Ibrahim Ali Abhi. Let us don't feel on laka I will seek forgiveness for you. And did Ibrahim alayhis salam do that Yes. Ibrahim ruinous Anam sought forgiveness for him. However, Falun Mata Bayona Allah Who but when it became evident to him that underwater I don't want to lay that he is an enemy to Allah, Who is his father is how did it become clear to Ibrahim realism that
his father was an enemy to Allah. When his father died in that state, he never repented. Then what happened to about a man who he declared his disassociation from him, meaning Ibrahim escena disassociated himself from his father.
He died as a mushrik Ibrahim Ernestina didn't have anything to do with him.
Because different faith right and ultimately a different end. Different group different end. In Ibrahim Allah aware when Helene and about Ibrahim realism, Allah says that indeed, Ibrahim was surely aware and Haleem aware from the root letters, Hamza, well, huh?
Oh.
What does that mean?
The one who sighs a lot. Who sighs a lot.
Who, when do you sigh? When do you say ah, when you feel something here, right? When you feel something in your heart that really has an impact on you, so you can't help but sighing so aware is someone who is
is very, very, very compassionate, very tender hearted, extremely kind hearted.
So because he was so tender hearted, so compassionate, he couldn't help but pray for his father.
Think about it only really compassionate towards people that were so concerned about people who don't accept Islam, and we learned that they will eventually go to fire. Are we really concerned about them? Are we really compassionate towards them? We Muslims show a lot of concern that why will God put people that hellfire?
Right? It is something that we find difficult to accept. But what kind of compassion is this? When we're dealing with people, we showed no compassion to them when they're sinning. And when they're throwing themselves into fire, we don't warn them. We don't tell them. And yet, when Allah with his justice, he will punish the sinful, we get concerned about them. This is hypocrisy, isn't it? Like, for example, if there is a person who's committing a crime in front of your eyes, a crime in front of your eyes? What is your responsibility if you really care about them? And if you really care about the people, what's your responsibility that you stop them?
They pick up a gun, you stop them, you tell them not to do that. And if they don't listen to you, you get help. Right? But if you don't do anything at that time, you say, You know what, it's their choice, free country, free life, it's up to you. You do whatever you want. And then later on, when they're being punished, when they're being charged with murder, and so many, many, many crimes. You say, over Come on, how can you give them life imprisonment?
Really, now you care about them? Why didn't you care about them earlier? What were you doing when they were picking up the gun before you? Were you sleeping at that time?
Ibrahim, Hassan was a word. He truly, truly, genuinely cared about people. And this is why when his people turned against him, collecting firewood to burn him, he didn't stop telling them the truth.
And when Allah saved him, still, he didn't just leave the people. He came out of the fire and went back,
went back, telling them again.
He went back and what happened? His father said, You better go, otherwise, I'm gonna stone you to death. He didn't stop telling them. He kept telling him because he genuinely cared about people. He was ALLAH. So yes, he had a right to seek forgiveness later on. But we who just talk who don't really genuinely care about people, we have no right to say, why will Allah punish people in hellfire? Because the fact is that we don't really care about people. If we really cared about them, we would have been telling them about what the truth is. He was aware and he was Helene, who is Haleem someone who was very, very tolerant, who has the power to take revenge, but yet he decides
not to. So Ebrahimian ism, he was so tolerant that his father is threatening him I'm gonna kill you. But yet Ibrahim Al is Salam doesn't stop. He doesn't answer back. He was Haleem. So what do we learn in these ayat?
You see, this is Surah Totoaba. Alright, and it is an invitation to repentance. Allah subhanaw taala invites you to repent all kinds of people wish to clean when African those who have doubt those who are behind in their action no matter what, who it is, Repent, turn back to Allah be of utter a boon. If you want to make an agenda. That's the first characteristic needed from people if they want to make an agenda attach a boon.
But we see that if a person does not return to Allah Himself, then it doesn't matter if the prophet seeks forgiveness for them 70 times
if Helene Allah Ibrahim has said I'm seeks forgiveness for them, it doesn't matter. If a person himself does not go to Allah. Then remember that no one can take you. No one can get you forgiven if you don't go to him seeking His forgiveness.
In a hadith we learn that Ibrahim Hassan will disown his father on the day of judgment.
He will meet his father and he will see dust and fatigue on his face. Like you know, we learned that people their faces will be dark covered with dust because gloom because of the fear.
So Ibrahim alayhis salam, he will say to his father, oh, my father did not tell you to listen to me. But you didn't say his father will say, Oh Abraham, I will not
disobey you today. I will listen to you today whatever you told me I will do today. Ibrahim, listen I will ask Allah Oh my Lord, please forgive my father even on the day of judgment he will try.
He will say that this will be humiliation for me if my father is thrown into hellfire.
But Allah subhanaw taala will not accept that. So what will happen, his father will be converted into a creature that is described as a filthy hyena
and dragged into hellfire so that Ibrahim or Islam does not see the face of his father being taken into hellfire.
So it doesn't matter who the person is, even if they're the father of Halal Allah, even if they're the uncle
of Al Mustafa sallallahu alayhi wa salam, if a person himself does not take the steps towards Allah, nobody can push you.
Nobody can make you go.
Nobody can take you there. You yourself, have to walk towards your Lord, seeking his pardon his forgiveness, eager for His mercy, you have to take the leap. You yourself have to go. Woman can Allah Who and Allah would not leave in the coalmine mislead of people BARDA after it her home when he has guided them after Allah has guided a people he would not declare the misguided head that until you buy in a home he makes clear to them may have the cone that which they must avoid, yet the cone they avoid in Allaha. Because Alicia in early him indeed Allah is Knowing of everything. You see the Sahaba they were all converts, right? There were all converts. And they were all concerned
about their families about their loved ones. someone's wife was not Muslim, someone son was not Muslim, someone's father, their uncle. Every family had members, you know, some relatives who weren't Muslim who were still up on shit. So imagine the worry that the we're living in on a daily basis, if my father dies today, what is going to happen? So what happened all the companions in some way or the other were seeking forgiveness for their loved ones. Now when these ayat were revealed, they got worried that we just do something wrong by seeking forgiveness for our Mushrik relatives. Allah subhanaw taala clarifies over here that before you didn't know, so when you didn't know out of
ignorance, you did something wrong. You're not going to be misguided. Allah has clarified this matter to you now. So from this point onwards, you are responsible, you are accountable. But before when you didn't know any mistake that you made an ignorance It's okay. In Allahu Allah whom will customer where it will all indeed Allah, To Him belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. You You Are you meet he gives life and he gets death woman recommend doing Allah him in OneLogin when earnestly and you do not have besides Allah any protector or any helper and isn't this clear?
If Allah does not protect a person if Allah does not help him who can? Can Ibrahim or s&m do that? Can Mohammed so a lot of them do that? Can aroma little are you gonna do that? No, but he can. No one can give shelter to the one whom Allah punishes. So it's necessary that we clear our record with who? Allah subhanaw taala in the sense that we don't have any,
anything that is distancing us from Allah subhanaw taala our relationship with our Lord with our Creator, should be the best should be good.
We try to reach Allah through others, depending on others, in order to know Allah. This is why when we're going through some difficulty instead of making dua ourselves, what do we do we keep urging other people please make dua for me. Please make dua for me. Yes, ask others but how much do are we making ourselves?
Because if Allah is happy with a person, then it doesn't matter the whole world is upset with him. What matters most is the river of Allah subhanaw taala approval from him. Recitation
