A min Holika sama worth he will herba what unzila co Mina sama EMA
for Betina be had eco Tibet Jatin Makana la comme Anton Beto shedule Raha but Isla Houma Allah. Bye Bilham como er de Lune?
Is he not best Who created the heavens and the earth, and sent down for you rain from the sky, causing to grow there by gardens of joyful beauty, which you could not have grown the trees there off? Is there a deity with Allah, but they are a people who ascribe equals to him. In the previous IR we learned who is better is Allah better is Allah best are those gods, those so called Gods that people associate with him? Who is better, Allah is better. And these ayat are further questions you can say. Allah subhanaw taala is asking us making us think making us reflect on the universe that we are in the creation that surrounds us, that Where did all of this come from? Who is it that has
created all of this? The one Allah azza wa jal the greatest one who has created all of this? Is he not worthy of worship? When that is the case? Then why is it that you associate partners with him? Why is it that you turn away from Him? Um, man, um, meaning or man who, meaning a man Holika sama Watty will old Or who is it that has created the skies and the earth or is he not best? Who has created the skies and the earth? What unzila calm and the one who has sent down for you Mina sama II from the sky mat and water, and when this water falls down from the sky, for an Betina then we cause to girl be he with it meaning because of this rain that has fallen down, we produce from the earth
Heather it gardens had that is the plural of headaches from the root letters have that cough and Hadiya CA is an enclosed garden and enclosed garden, meaning a garden that is surrounded with wolves. So you're talking about a private property and a property that is well preserved that is looked after that is maintained and no matter who's maintaining a private property a garden, it cannot grow until and unless Allah allows it to grow. He causes it to grow. So hada if gardens who causes them to grow and these gardens also what are they that jetan that literally means possessor off meaning one having one that has one that is off, meaning the description of these gardens is the
quality of these gardens is that they are off badger badger from the root letters bah ha gene. What Does better mean? Badger is that which is beautiful to look at. Okay, that which is beautiful to look at. Now when you see something that is beautiful to look at, what happens? Do you feel happy? Do you feel happy? Yes. Now what is it that when you look at it, you feel happy that which is dull or that which is bright, bright, that which is old and you know drooping and almost dead or that which is fresh, full of life full of color full of radiance, what is beautiful to look at that which is fresh. So badger, meaning beautiful sight, bright, delightful, looking beautiful, fresh, lively.
This is how these gardens are. And Allah causes them to grow from what from rain that He sends down. Because we know that no matter how much we try to, you know, water our grass and water our plants, right flowers, trees, whatever it is, they cannot look beautiful until unless rain actually falls from the sky. Isn't it? I mean, we've experienced this in the summer, that every day you try your best, you know to water the grass to water the plants, but then what happens one rainfall and the
A result is just far more beautiful that badger that delight that beauty. That freshness doesn't come from your sprinkler system. It doesn't come through your watering can. It doesn't come through your strict routine of looking after your garden. It only comes after rain even if it be just a slight drizzle. So this badger comes from Allah, mad cannula calm, it is not possible for you it is not within your ability. And that don't be too you cause to grow from imbeds noon batter. You cannot cause to grow shedule Aha, it's trees, meaning the trees, the plants, which are in these gardens of yours, you cannot make them grow. How many times is it that a tree is planted or some seeds are put
in, you know, and fertilizer and water and everything, but you cannot make it grow? We cannot make it grow. They can only grow when Allah allows them to grow. A Isla Houma Allah.
Is Allah when a god My Allah with Allah? Is there any god with Allah? Who does this with him? No one does this with him. Who has this power alone? Only Allah then could there possibly be a god with Allah besides Allah other than Allah, no way. Bell rather whom they are going on a people yard or the loon they equate yard they learn from other other is to equate to make equal. So these people, what do they do? They set others as equals to Allah, meaning they ascribe partners to Allah. They put others at the same level as that of Allah subhanaw taala Bell whom come we are the loan, and we are the loan can also be from the word rule. And the rule is to deviate, meaning the truth is so
obvious. The oneness of Allah is so obvious, yet they turn away, they turn away from the heat to shake. So in this ayah, Allah subhanaw taala is asking us among Kanaka? Or who is it that has created all of this, the one who has created all of this? Is he not best? And if he has not created all of this, then who is it that has brought all of this into existence? If you look at this idea, what we see is that life would be impossible on Earth, if Earth was not the way that it is a man Halacha, Sama Swati? Well,
who is it that has created the earth and the sky? Who is it? Because if Allah had not created the earth the way it is, the life would be impossible? Aren't there so many other planets that exist in this universe? In just our own galaxy? Not too far from us. But how is it that life is possible only on earth? Because there's a Creator of life on this earth, there's a creator of this earth, there's a creator of this universe, and he is the one who has made life possible over here. Likewise, rain would not be possible, it would be impossible for rain to fall. If the system this water cycle was not the way that Allah has created it. I mean, think about it, isn't there, you know, ice or like
cold temperatures, or even hot temperatures on other planets? Isn't there we study about this in science, right? But why is it that life cannot exist because rain cannot fall? Because water is not raised up to the sky. And we know that no matter how much water is taken up into the sky, it evaporates. It cannot fall down unless all the factors come together, isn't it? So many times you see the clouds just passing by, but not a drop of rain falls? Right? Why? Because all the circumstances were not there together to allow rain to fall. So who is it that sends rain from the sky? What unzila Kamina sama ima, who has allowed this to happen? Allah has likewise nothing would
grow from the earth. If this natural order with its perfection did not exist, the soil, the air, the light, I mean, everything has to come together and everything has to be in a particular order, so that life may exist on this planet. Now when there is such perfect law and order that this universe is upon, then there must be a law maker. There must be a law giver. And who is that law giver? Who is that law maker? Allah subhanahu McDonogh that is God and this law maker
It has to be not from within this universe, not from within this creation, but from beyond it from above it. And who is that? Allah azza wa jal. So this train of life is not moving by itself, there is a mover, there is someone who is causing it to move, there is someone who's causing you to continue. Likewise, you know, like, for example, a factory, it cannot operate itself, there has to be an operator, there has to be someone running it. Now this earth and we're living in this life that we're experiencing, it's not happening just by itself. It didn't come about from an accident, someone is causing it to live to exist. And who is it then? Who is it? Who is that power? Who is
that lawmaker that law giver? It is Allah or xojo among Holika sama Watty. Well, how can you possibly deny the existence of a creator? The existence of Allah giver, the existence of Allah maker? How can you possibly deny that a man halacha? If it is not him, then who is it? Did you create yourselves? You couldn't create yourself? Someone created you, and the one who has created all of this? Is he not best? Who is better him? Or an idol that is sitting idle before you? Who is better? Who is deserving of worship? Allah azza wa jal internacional is 17. Allah says FMA local come Allah look, the one who creates can he be like the one who cannot create who does not create?
Can they be the same? Never. But yet people either deny the existence of a creator, the existence of a god or they ascribe equal to Allah, they ascribe partners to him.
And there are many people even at the time of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam who admitted the fact that yes, there is a Creator who is supreme, who is above any other being an attribute imperfection. He is the most powerful one he is though God, but they did not accept the fact that he is the one who has sent revelation. He is the one who has sent all of these messengers.
And we see that people like that exists today also, they believe in a deity, but they don't believe that He is Allah that He is the one who has revealed the Quran. He is the one who sent Musa who sent isa Allah He was salam intro to Zookal of i 87. We learn wala INSA Elta home man halacha home, la Kowloon Allah, if you were to ask them who is it that created you? They will say Allah and Allah basically translates as God right? So they say that God created us for Allah yo for call them from where are they diluted? In total? Anca Budaya 63 We learn well at INSA Alta home man Mozilla Mina sama Eema. If you were to ask them, Who is it that sends down rain from the sky water from the sky
for a heavy Hill off the bar the motiva and he brings life to the earth after it was dead. Leia Kowloon Allah, they will say this, Allah is God, who does this call hamdulillah then say all praises for Allah. When you believe that there is a Creator, there is a deity than Why do you not surrender to him? Why do you not submit to Him? Because you see there's levels of denial. The greatest level of denial is there is no God, there is no creator. Then there are people who say there is a Creator, but I don't worship Him.
deism, right. I mean, there are people who live like this, who hold such beliefs. But how is it that a person can just acknowledge a creator, but not surrendered to Him? That's illogical. So the one who created the sky above you the earth beneath you, the One who created you, the one who sustaining you surrender to Him. And when you equate others with him, then this is the greatest injustice, a mandala of the Carrara a man then who is it? Um or man Who who is it that's doing this? Who is it that has made the earth a stable ground? Or a man is he not best? Who made an out of body Earth Quran a stable ground cut off from the root letters off wrong? What does curar mean stability, when
something is stable, it is steady, it is firm. So the earth Allah has made it a stable abode. This is amazing. The Earth is constantly on the move, isn't it? I remember as a child when I studied in school, that the Earth is spinning and not just spinning but it's also moving. I remember the chapter, the great travelers or something, right. And who are the travelers we
Are travelers mean we're constantly traveling, right? Because the Earth is constantly spinning and then moving. But we don't even feel that movement.
Allah has made the earth it got all stable. And not just that the earth is moving. I mean, the Earth is constantly spewing out love on sulfur and fumes and whatnot, I mean, think about what all is within the earth. But yet the earth is stable.
It's stable. The Earth's interior here is composed of four layers, right? Three of them are solid, and one is liquid. And it is not magma, but molten metal, we just think about within the earth is what molten metal in the core of the earth. And it's nearly as hot as the surface of the sun,
nearly as hot as the surface of the sun. This is how the Earth is from the inside. And we know exactly how it is. I mean, you've studied it, right? That how it's constantly moving rocks, what all is going on within the earth, just a few miles deep into the earth, how much movement there is how much energy there's how much force there is, but yet the earth that we live upon, that we sit on, that we stand on, got off, so stable, and just those few moments when there's an earthquake, right when the rocks within the earth, they're moving, and there's a certain, you know, pressure a jolt because of that, what happens with the slight movement of the surface of the earth and just one part
of the Earth, what devastation we go through, right, we experience this orb, who who has made this earth Ikara what Gianna and he has made Leela within it, meaning between the surface of the earth and fleet, I remember it's in will do, what do you do? I do the hull of the fingers, right? That the gap that is between your fingers, you pass your fingers through that gap. Why in order to make sure that it is wet. All right. So who has made within the earth through the surface of the Earth unhealed on rivers plural of No, not just one river, but many rivers? I mean, just look at the surface of the earth. What do you see? A huge massive river network, right? That's what you study in
geography, don't you? When you study about the country that you live in the province that you live in the state that you live in, whatever the continent that you live in, you learn about all the major major rivers. They're not just major rivers, but they're also the small rivers, a river network, and they're also described as ecological corridors. So, who has made these rivers running through the surface of the earth? You know, irrigating lands, and because of this irrigation life is possible, with Jarrah Allah Allah her and he has also made for it meaning for the earth, little Alessia awasi firmly set mountains but as just you know, a very rough translation of RWAs zero as
the plural of Rossia and Rasiah from Rusu. Raw scene Wow. And what Alessia means is that witches, first of all, towering, tall, huge, massive and not just tall on one side, but also firmly and deeply rooted. This is how mountains are towering mountains that are deeply firmly rooted, that are stable themselves and are also stabilizing the Earth. Stabilizing the earth. What gyla hala Sia, what Gianna and he has made banal behind between the two seas, Bahrain, destiny of the word Bob, between the two seas hatches a barrier hedges from the root letters had Jeem ze and patches is an obstacle, a barrier between two things a hurdle, preventing them from coming together from mixing.
And it's amazing how for miles and miles to different waters, with different properties, different color, they are running next to each other for so long before they actually are able to mix together. So who has created this barrier between the two waters? Who is it that has made the earth a stable abode, a stable ground and has made within the earth rivers and has made in the earth firmly set towering, stable and stabilizing mountains? And who is it that has made between the two seas a barrier preventing the two waters from mixing immediately? Who is it? Allah, isla? humara Allah then is there a god with Allah
Who is doing this with him? Bell UK Thoreau home lair Allah Moon Bell, rather a thermal home, most of them most of the people lie Yarlung moon they do not know. They do not know that Allah is making all of this happen. Majority of the people are ignorant of the favours that Allah has bestowed upon them. These are hidden favors, hidden blessings, we don't even feel them we don't even think about them. But if it wasn't for these blessings, we would be dead, we would not be alive. Most of the people do not know Allah has favors. Most of the people do not know Allah, they do not know his oneness.
If still you don't understand, then a man then who is it? Is he not best who ug Bill matara, ug boo, he responds to a Java Java to answer, Gene well bad, who is it that responds to a Motorola the desperate one, the one whom no one else hears no one else responds to, but Allah is the One who responds to the Moodle, who is mucked up macdon from both la la barra harm, and Matata is the one who has been afflicted with some harm, who was suffering from some harm, very close to death, almost like for example, a person stranded at sea, the ship is sinking, or people who are lost somewhere will fall the person who sees death approaching him. He's only minutes away from losing his life.
And not just that, but also a person who's in a desperate situation. You see Matata is basically someone who is afflicted by Dora, right, someone who's afflicted by some harm. So because of that harm, he tries to help himself. Right? He tries to save himself. Now what happens sometimes we try to save ourselves, we try to help ourselves, we try to take ourselves out of a difficult situation. But then when we're unable to what do we do? We call out for help. We seek the help of those who are around us. But then what happens? Even those who are around us? Do they fail in providing help to us? Do they fail? Yes, they do. Then what happens? Who is it that we call upon? Only Allah soprano.
So my God is the one who's tried everything, exhausted every effort to save himself to protect himself to take himself out of that dangerous situation. The person who has tried to swim he has tried to grab on to, you know, something to save himself, who has, you know, been calling out to others screaming for help, but he hasn't been heard. He hasn't been responded to. So what does he do now he calls upon Allah in his desperation mejor de bl Macatawa Eva da, who when he calls out to him, meaning when the matar finally calls upon Allah, then who responds to him Allah response to him, why actually for SU Y X Shifu and he removes from the word cash, what is cash to unveil and
when you unveiled something, you have to remove the cover, you have to lift it up. So this is cash, you actually for meaning he lifts it up, he removes it, he takes it away? What is it that he takes away a sue the evil meaning that which was harming the person that which was grieving him that which was distressing him? That which was troubling him whether it was a disease, a life threatening situation, whatever it may be. He actually for Sue, who takes that problem away, where John Newcomb and he makes you hula fall, the inheritors of the earth hula fat plural of the word Califa, who is Khalifa? One who comes after the other and will be replaced by another. And this is the reality of
us human beings, that when we are born, when we are born, what does it mean? There were people here before us, right? And then when we are born, we live, it doesn't mean we're living here forever. What's going to happen we're gonna die and others are going to come and take our place. So while Gerardo Kampala allowed he makes you the inheritors of the earth, meaning he gives you another chance to live. You were so close to dying.
This was nearly the end of your life. And you were that methodical person and Allah rescued you and He gave you another chance to live a new life. Isla Han Marla
Ah, then tell me Is there a god with Allah or Leela? Mata karoun Very little it is that you remember how quickly you forget Allah says favors upon you. And this is so true that how many times we find ourselves in such a difficult situation, whether it be preparing for an exam, or it'd be driving in in stormy weather, right? We try everything, nothing works. And then all we can do is just make dos. All right, we just say La ilaha illallah we're just saying all the doors that we can remember this is the state of the motto. This is the state of the MCPA. But then what happens as soon as Allah saves us, He delivers us to safety we forget we forget unless favor on us. And we turn to others
whether it is you know, a TV screen or it is our friends you know, we we forget Allah's federal honors His favor on us and we go on living this life as if there is no God. We go on with our day to day as if there is no one who favored us yesterday, the second before Amina Mata the karoun little it is that you remember, in total Israel is 67 We'll learn what either must second mode don't refill battery, Ludlum into the Runa Illa a year. And when adversity touches you at sea, last are all those you invoke except for him?
Everyone, you forget about them. And who is it that you remember? Allah? So the lesson is that the one who rescues you from these difficult times? Why is it that you don't remember him the rest of your life? Why is it that you don't surrender to Him? In your days? If you call upon Him at times of difficulty, then why do you not call upon Him at times of ease? If you remember Him and rely upon Him and seek Him? When you're in trouble? Then why is it that you forget him? When you're fine? A male Deeble mattala either da who were actually for Sue, were dry. LUCAM Hola, Isla Houma. Hola kalila Mata the karoun. Aman, or who is it then? Is he not best who Yeah, de como, He guides you
feel Hulu mad in the darkness is above the will, of the land and of the sea. Meaning when you're stuck in the darkness, which surrounds you that you are within? Where? Whether you are on land or you are at sea? When you find yourself in darkness, unable to see because of the night, then who is it that guides you in that situation? Who is it that has placed the moon and the stars in the night sky? To show you the way? Who is it that has given you the Ockel the intellect the means the resources and the ability to make Google Earth or to make your GPS? Whatever version it may be? Who has given you this ability? Who has guided you to this so that you can find your way, even where
your eyes cannot see for you Lulu mountain very well.
You know, in daytime, it's easy to find your way even if you're lost. Why? Because at least you can see. Right? You can see clearly. But in the darkness of the night. What happens even the most familiar roads, they begin to feel unfamiliar. Isn't it? The same road that you drive on every day? What happens when it's dark and it's raining and the visibility is really poor? You can barely tell between the lanes,
isn't it? You can barely tell. You forget what the speed limit was. And you have to constantly check you're really straining yourself to drive safely. It happened with me last night it was raining and I was trying to get home. It took me so long and I think it was by far the most difficult drive I've ever had the most difficult because the car was constantly scanning and the visibility was really bad. I got stuck behind a huge bus and I couldn't change lanes because I couldn't see behind me. I really couldn't.
So in the darkness of the night, when you find yourself stranded when you find yourself lost. Who is it that guides you? Who is it that delivers you to safety? Who is it that takes you home makes you reach your destination safely. Amelia D configure automatic battery while
we're making your Silveria and who is it that sends the winds or RIA Florida vie? Who sends the winds Bush LOM as good news Bush Ron Paul of the word Bashira and who is Bashira one that brings Bashara
one that brings Bushra good news. So winds when they blow. What is it that they bring good news beignet a day before the Law Committee he his mercy meeting before the actual mercy, Allah subhanaw taala sends you the good news of the arrival of His mercy.
Meaning before rain actually falls, Allah sends winds so that you know, okay, rain is coming.
Right? So what this means is that when you're in difficulty, when you find yourself in darkness, he delivers you to safety. And when you find yourself in drought and famine and thirst and hunger and deprivation in a state of neediness before the actual relief comes, he sends you good news of that relief. Right? He sends you good news. You know, all of a sudden, before you even know it just within a split second, you know, the sky opens up and rain begins to fall, when you're not expecting it. Even though you Love Rain, you enjoy rain, is it going to disturb you? It's going to stress you out, right? But what happens when you see the weather changing gradually, gradually, gradually, you
know that okay, inshallah. It's going to be cool. Hopefully, the weather is going to be nicer, right? So when you're looking forward to a blessing, you receive it more happily, it's a source of comfort and relief for you.
And, you know, like, for example, if you want to give a gift to somebody, right? One is that you just bring a gift to them. And the other is that you ask them the day before, if you were to receive a gift, what would you like?
Those of you who are married, Think as if your husband's asking you
that if you were to receive a gift on your anniversary, what is it that you would like?
Right now this question itself? What does it mean? A gift is on its way, isn't it? Hmm. Yeah, we have such a long list. We don't know what to say, right? What to request for, or we feel too shy. But just the fact that we are being asked this question, what does it mean that a gift is on its way? Right? So before even the gift is given a hint that a gift is coming? Or, for example, you're on your way home and somebody tells you, you're going to find a surprise when you get home? Now, what does that surprise? What is it going to be good be a person waiting for you could be the fact that the house is all clean? Could be the fact that kids are in bed could be the fact that you know
there's dinner, whatever it is, but to know that there's a surprise waiting for me, that itself makes you happy. See the smiles on your face. Right?
That good news itself is a means of happiness. And who would you show this gesture to those that you love those that you care about? And this is a sign of Allah's love his Rama for His creation, that before he sends the rain, he sends the good news of the arrival of the rain.
And he sends well mejor Silla RIA bushland beignet, a de rahmati Isla Humala, then tell me, is there a god with Allah? Could there possibly be a god with Allah? No, dal Allah, Exalted is Allah. No, we say Allah Allah. This is the word to Allah to Allah is actually a verb. Right Tala is from Lou. And Lou is to be high to Allah. He is high, meaning he is exalted to Allah, Allah, Allah is Exalted. I'm my Yoshi Khun, above all that they ascribe with him about all that they associate with him. He is higher, he is better he is greater. So in this is, what are we being told that when you are lost, when you find yourself in darkness, you don't know where to go? And darkness is also like sadness,
right? Depression, when you find yourself in grief, you don't know which way to go. Whether you should even take a step forward or not. You know, just imagine yourself in complete darkness. You would be afraid to even take one step forward, you would be afraid to even sit down because you don't know if the chair is right behind you if it's even a chair in hot, right? Why is it that we walk so slowly and carefully when it's dark? It's your own room. You've been living there for the past 10 years. But why is it that when the lights are out? Why do you walk so slowly and carefully because you're afraid?
Yes, they would stop. Whenever it got dark. They would stop and they'd freeze and then only when the light came they would start walking forward again. Yes, when there's lightning, even if it's just for a brief moment, that's when the hypocrites walk right?
But when there's darkness, they stop what either Allah marlay, him, camo, this is how human beings are, when we are afraid, we just freeze, we're confused, we don't know what to do. So this idea can be understood literally meaning literally in the darkness of the night. And then overall, also, generally, when you find yourself in such dark situations in life problems, then who guides you out of them step by step, slowly, gradually.
It also reminds me of all the incidents and like the Sierra, the life of the process, and then when he was going through a lot of difficulty, and then Alas, pantalla would send him first like a dream or a like a vision into the future that he was going to be victorious, like, in the Battle of the hijab, which we just studied when he was striking the rocks that he knew later on, and then that made it easier for him to continue. Yes. And, you know, the darkness of the night, always, what does that symbolize that it's going to be followed by a day? Right? So when you find yourself in a very dark situation, the fact that you're in darkness, what does it mean? There will be relief? Soon, the
next thing that's going to happen is ease. And if you just look back into your life, think about the most difficult the most tough situations. I mean, think about before the summer, right before the summer, when you're stressing out because of your midterms, your exams, your assignments, your homework, and then Ramadan, right, everything, everything kind of came together. But then what happened? You had a whole two months to chill. All right. Now again, there's difficulty school has started again. Alright. So this is life, Allah puts us in difficulty and then he takes us out of that difficulty then he puts us in another difficulty and only takes us out who guides you through
the ups and downs of life. And then when you find yourself in a difficult situation before even you come out of it, Allah tells you he shows you that you will be out of it soon.
You know, for example, a person is ill they're sick, they don't know what's going on. And then finally, the disease the illness is diagnosed and then eventually the treatment can be taken and then inshallah person will be healthy again.
This is shows that Allah is so merciful, that he's telling us that he's going to test us and there will be difficulties and there will be relief from him. And we still human and we don't put trust on him still, we always depend on other things and that was very sad. This is our weakness of faith that really Tawheed means that that when you are in difficulty, you realize that he is the one who will take you out of that difficulty him alone. Alone. Only him nobody else because a man who is it that is there anyone with him? Not at all Allahumma Allah is there a god with Allah not at all down Allah Who are my Yoshi Khun let's listen to the recitation
