Woman Cafaro and whoever disbelieved, fella Yeah, zonca fella than not yet zonca It should grieve you go through his disbelief, meaning the truth is evident. The truth is evident the prophets of Allah Sam has been comforted over here you're doing your job you are conveying. But still if people dispute about Allah with you, still they don't surrender to Allah. Still they oppose you, then their coffers should not grieve you. It's not your fault. It should not make you sad. It's not your fault. Elaine Mr. Jarrell home to us is their return funnel not be a home then we shall inform them the mommy lieu of that which they did, we will inform them of their actions. Because so many times it

00:00:50--> 00:01:16

happens that a person is doing something and he doesn't even think about the repercussions. Right? We do it and we forget it. But Allah will inform people about the reality of their actions in Allaha. Indeed, Allah I Limon, he is knowing be that to salute of that which is within the hearts within the chests. Allah knows what people conceal in their hearts.

00:01:17--> 00:01:48

And it's amazing. The feelings, the intentions, the hidden agendas, right? All of that people might be ignorant of it. Others may be ignorant of it. But who knows? Allah knows. And this is something so frightening, that the person sitting next to us may not have any idea about what we're thinking. They may have no clue about what where our thoughts are, right, what our intentions are, what our, you know, likes, dislikes, whatever. But who knows about it. Allah subhanaw taala knows.

00:01:49--> 00:02:35

So the Prophet sallallahu Sallam has been comforted over here that do not fear your enemy. Don't worry about what they say to you, and what they hide in their hearts. Don't worry about what they do to you. And the plans that they have in their minds. Don't worry, don't fear. Ultimately, they're coming back to us. So you stay focused on what you are supposed to do. No material home, we shall grant them enjoyment, or leighlin a little, a little enjoyment for a little time, we will give them meaning we will let them live in this world. And isn't that what happened? At the time of the prophets of Allah? Is that um, don't we see that Abuja hell did he not live a fun life an arrogant

00:02:35--> 00:03:20

life. He had a lot of fun mocking at the Prophet sallallahu Sallam he really enjoyed oppressing the Muslims, persecuting the Muslims fighting against the Muslims, he did no material hollyland But it's a little enjoyment for a little time, some men up the room, then we will force them Illa either Bengali to a massive punishment. allele, Holly Weinland law to be hard or severe. So Holly, incredibly severe, incredibly difficult, incredibly painful and heavy punishment. So this is basically something that should make us think about our actions.

00:03:21--> 00:03:39

That so many times we continue, for instance, hurting other individuals, harassing them, verbally abusing them. We go on doing it just because we can. But what this does is show that just because we have freedom, now, we will not have it forever.

00:03:40--> 00:04:35

We will not have it forever. And this is, you know the greatest reality in our lives. Do we see people? Do we see hospitals that are full? Don't we see? You know, people who need medication, people who are going through surgery after surgery, who were once very happy, very free. What does it show to us? Our life is very short. Very, very short. Our abilities are very, very limited. Let's use them to benefit humanity, not destroy humanity. Let's use this life this time for something that will benefit others not harm them. Because ultimately we will return to Allah. Wallah insert Ulta home and surely if you were to ask them who those who deny those who oppose if you were to question

00:04:35--> 00:04:54

them, that Hmong halacha sama Watty, will Allah who is it that has created the skies and the earth layer Kowloon Allah? Surely they will definitely say it is a mall. Because you remember the Mushrikeen of Makkah, they didn't deny the existence of Allah. All right, they believe that Allah exists, what was the problem?

00:04:55--> 00:04:59

What was the problem that with their belief, that instead of worshipping Allah, Allah

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

On they worshiped others. And that is pure injustice that Allah is the One who created you. Allah is the One who has given you everything. And when it comes to servitude, you don't show that to him. You show that to others. When it comes to expressing love and gratitude and devotion, you don't show that to Allah you show it to others. So if you were to ask them that, who was it that created the skies on the earth? They will say Allah

00:05:24--> 00:05:27

say Alhamdulillah

00:05:28--> 00:05:34

All praise is due to Allah. When is it that you say Alhamdulillah?

00:05:39--> 00:05:42

Okay, when something good happens when you get a blessing.

00:05:43--> 00:06:04

Okay, when your efforts your work is recognized, okay? What else do you say? Alhamdulillah. When you feel satisfied when you feel happy, right? So why do you think over here a loss per month artist studying the Prophet sallallahu Sallam say Alhamdulillah? When the people say that Allah is the One who has created the skies in the earth,

00:06:05--> 00:06:07

but at least they know this one.

00:06:09--> 00:06:21

It's like when you are discussing something with someone proving something to them, and they agree with you're like, Thank God, at least you get this much 100 Allah imagine how much worse it would be if you didn't even understand this month.

00:06:22--> 00:06:53

So Colin hamdulillah say Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah Wilds because, yes, he is the one who has created the skies and the earth argument is established over here. But through whom Allah says, but most of them lay our la moon, they don't know. They say that Allah is the Creator. But they don't really know that. Because if they knew it, if they understood this fact, then they wouldn't do *.

00:06:54--> 00:07:16

Then they wouldn't live their lives in disobedience to Allah. They wouldn't associate partners with Allah. But at the room layer, Allah moon. And this is a reason why they're not grateful to Allah. They don't worship Him. So they're saying this, how with ignorance, and this is something that we really need to pay attention to.

00:07:17--> 00:07:23

They say that Allah is the Creator, but they say this statement with what with ignorance.

00:07:25--> 00:07:52

Now we need to think about it. How many times we say Alhamdulillah. But do we really mean it? Do we really understand it? How many times we say I love Allah. I love the Prophet salallahu Salam, how many times we say I believe in fate, how many times we say I believe in the Quran? I know the Quran is true. But do we really understand it?

00:07:54--> 00:07:57

It's very easy to say statements.

00:07:58--> 00:08:00

It's very easy to say that

00:08:01--> 00:08:30

many things, don't we see children doing that all the time? Right? Doesn't it happen that? You know, little kids, you will tell them? Okay, we're going to the hospital to roots, no running. No talking loudly. Right. But then what happens as soon as they see a hallway, they cannot help themselves in the start reading. And off, they're gone. And then when you get to them? You remind them remember the rules? What are the rules, no running, no screaming. They're saying it.

00:08:31--> 00:08:35

They will repeat it. But they will repeat it without any knowledge.

00:08:37--> 00:08:46

Bird birds, you can teach them how to talk. And they will talk to you, they will talk a lot. So much so that you will want them to be quiet.

00:08:47--> 00:09:23

But they said how without knowledge. They don't know what they're saying. So we really need to think about it. That what I say in my doors, what I say in my salah, what I recite of the Quran, whatever words I say related to my faith, do I really know what I'm saying? Do I say them with knowledge with understanding with certainty with conviction? Why am I just saying it because I heard somebody else say, remember the Hadith about alpha tan? The angel that will test people in the grave when caught on the keys?

00:09:24--> 00:09:39

Who will ask the three questions. So some among people when they will be asked Who is your Lord? Who is your prophet? What is your religion? Their response will be I heard people saying this. So I also said it.

00:09:41--> 00:09:58

I heard people saying it so I also said it and what is it that he will be told? led the writer you'd never learnt you never understood. You started with ignorance. So it's not accepted? Your answer is not accepted.

00:10:00--> 00:10:49

So we need to pay attention to this. When I say do I really understand it, do I really mean it? But look through one layer Allah moon, lit Allah He to Allah belongs math is somehow worth you whatever that is in the skies, while oh the and the earth also in Allah has indeed Allah Who Well honey, you will Hamid he is the free of need the Praiseworthy, Allah is Allah nee who is honey one who is rich. He is so rich, that everything that you see everything that exists belongs to Allah, and he is so rich, that there's so much creation that he has created, but he doesn't need anybody. He doesn't need anything. In fact, he is constantly giving, not in need of receiving this is a loony. And

00:10:49--> 00:10:59

because he is constantly giving, even though people are not thanking him enough, he is Al Hamid, he is praiseworthy, he's deserving of praise.

00:11:00--> 00:11:40

So in the Allahu Allah, you will Hamid indeed Allah He alone is the free of need, because He has created this entire creation, and He does not need this creation. And he is Hamid he is praiseworthy, because he has given His creation, whatever that they are in need of. So he is deserving of praise how much praise so much that we follow. And if an MA indeed what ever, whatever fill ugly in the earth, Min shadow rotten off trees, men over here

00:11:41--> 00:12:00

gives a meaning author removed generality meaning every kind of tree every single tree from the beginning of the creation of trees, until the last tree that will be created on the earth, from every single tree without exception.

00:12:02--> 00:12:16

All these trees that are there on the earth, if from these trees were up lamb fence, aka lamb is a Flora love Allah. Now let's think about it one tree, how many bends can you make from one tree?

00:12:17--> 00:12:18

How many?

00:12:19--> 00:12:20

Too many.

00:12:21--> 00:12:32

I mean from a branch, you also can't you make bends, you can write basically for a pen you need to stick that's it right. So, imagine if the entire wood

00:12:33--> 00:13:04

that is on this earth was turned into pens and with that pen, something is written what is written the words of ALLAH, the praises of Allah. And when baharu and the sea, meaning the sea was ink. So basically all this water that is there that was turned into ink, and all the water and all the wood is used to write the praises of Allah subhanaw taala.

00:13:07--> 00:13:42

Now one pen, if you think about it, can you use it over and over again? Can you recycle pens, wood invents you can write because if for example, if it gets chipped, just cut it, make a new nib and start writing it, isn't it. But ink once it runs out, it runs out you have to purchase a new bottle of ink. I don't know if you've ever used ink pens, but when I went to school, we couldn't use anything except for ink pens. All right. And some ink pens literally they were so good. You could use them for the whole year

00:13:43--> 00:14:31

for the whole year. And actually you could use them for multiple years if they were good ink pens. Okay. But in one year, we would go through so many ink bottles. I missed those ink bottles. But anyway, ink, you can run out of it but a pen you can use over and over again. So if all the trees were turned into pens, and the C was used as ink, but of course you would run out of that ink so the seas would finish right? They would be exhausted, but unless parents are assessed that Yamato who it replenishes it yeah Madhu Mata Madhu is to replenish when you when something runs out, you replenish it so for example a glass of water once you finish it, what do you do you get a refill. Okay, so

00:14:31--> 00:14:50

your Moodle aid replenishes it mimbar the he after it after what? After the CS meaning the original C's that exist in the world once they run out? How many would replenish it? Somewhere out to about seven seas of Hope Florida the word Bob.

00:14:51--> 00:14:59

So if whatever trees up on the earth weapons and the sea

00:15:00--> 00:16:01

replenished mimbar the he meaning after the exhaustion of the seas that exist right now, if they were replenished by seven Morrissey's Sagar to uphold. Would that be enough? No, the seas would run out, the pens would break, but man, not Nephi that it would be exhausted. What Kalamata Allah Words of Allah Nephi that from the word Nefab to run out to wear out to be used up, the pens would be used up, the seas would be used up seven times multiply that that would be used up, but the words of Allah they would never finish because in the Lucha indeed Allah He is our Aziz He is Exalted in Might he is Hakeem, he is wise.

00:16:02--> 00:16:51

So many are Allah's Kelly Matt Kelly. Matt is a Florida of Colima. What are these Kadima? These Kali Mata includes the orders the commands of Allah. So for example, Cohen, this includes the words of His praise, meaning the praise that he is deserving off. This includes his knowledge, his wonders, his attributes, everything that he has ordered to be written in the low Hallmark fools, which is basically the detail of the entire creation. And if Allah has kalimat, if Allah is to be praised, and our prayers is to be written, you would run out of every resource that you could come up with. But Allah subhanaw taala would be deserving of more praise, because He is mighty, and he is wise.

00:16:53--> 00:17:03

To write the praises of Allah, to write the words of Allah that reflect his might that reflect His attributes that reflect His Majesty.

00:17:04--> 00:17:07

Even this much ink is not enough.

00:17:09--> 00:17:13

If you think about it, all that has ever been written till today.

00:17:15--> 00:17:34

All that has ever been written till today? Have all the trees been used up? No. Has all the water been used up for writing? No. So just imagine how much writing exists in this world today? Can we possibly read all the books that are out there? No, we can't.

00:17:36--> 00:17:49

Can we possibly read all the paper that is printed every day newspaper? No, we can't. It's so much. So everything that is written, that is a fraction of what is being spoken about in this aisle.

00:17:51--> 00:18:02

Just think about everything that is written is a small, tiny fraction of what is being mentioned in this iron. Man Nafi that kalimat Allah

00:18:03--> 00:18:40

then can we ever think Allah enough? Can we ever praise Allah enough? Can we ever worship Allah enough? No, we cannot. In the law who are as Eason Hakeem. This is why Allah tells us an item could see Wallah you hear tone A B che in mineral V. 11. Masha, the reality is that we have not recognized Allah, we really haven't. We think we know him, but we don't actually know him. We think we have done justice, to believing in Him and to thanking Him and to worshipping Him. But in reality, we have not.

00:18:41--> 00:19:13

Because what Allah is deserving off is much more than we could ever produce in our entire lives. What Allah deserves is much more than what we can accomplish in our lives, we can never thank him enough. This is why we learn in Hadith that on the Day of Judgment, when the scales will be placed such huge scales, that literally the entire skies and the earth could be put in those scales. Can you imagine the size of those scales bigger than this universe?

00:19:14--> 00:19:20

And when the angels will see that they will ask ALLAH that, oh, Allah, whose deeds are you going to wait in this?

00:19:21--> 00:19:59

And Allah will say, whoever I want from my creation, and the angels will say Suba Hannukah ma by the NACA, hochkar EBA, that Attica, perfect, are you we have not done justice to worshipping you. We have not worshipped you the way you deserve to be worshipped. And Who who is it that saying this? It's the angels and who are the angels, who from the moment of their birth, meaning from the time that they were created until the Day of Judgment, what are they doing basically every single moment every single second, what are they doing?

00:20:00--> 00:20:15

worshiping Allah. They're doing this be of Allah. You said Behold a Leila wonder how life to rune. They glorify Allah night and day. They don't stop. They don't get tired, they don't get bored. They don't take a break.

00:20:16--> 00:20:28

And even that is not enough, because man Nephi that kalimat Allah, the words of ALLAH, that the words of praise that he deserves, they could never be enough.

00:20:30--> 00:20:33

The Prophet sallallahu sallam, he taught us a DUA,

00:20:34--> 00:21:01

the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said, that when anyone lands at a place, meaning at a new place, and then he says, rules will be Kelly Mantilla hit them mighty men shall remain HELOC, that I seek refuge in the most perfect words of ALLAH from the evil of that which He has created, then nothing will harm him until he leaves that place.

00:21:03--> 00:21:15

There are so many so powerful, so honorable that we have been taught to seek refuge, through what seek protection through what through mentioning the words of ALLAH kalimat of Allah.

00:21:18--> 00:22:16

The words of his knowledge describing his attributes, praising and glorifying Allah, this is who Allah is. Mao has become so powerful he is so Aziz so Hakeem he is that might not have come your creation, Wallah and nor birth to come your resurrection. And notice come Gomez, who all of you creating all of you and then once you die, resurrecting all of you, is nothing to Allah INLA except, cannot see Wahida like one soul, creating all of you is as easy for Allah as creating one person resurrecting all of you is as easy for Allah as resurrecting one person can have seen Wahida in the Lucha Samia on buslee. Indeed, Allah is Hearing everything that is heard and he is seeing of

00:22:16--> 00:22:28

everything that is seen. So basically the numbers, the quantity, it doesn't matter to Allah. One thing does not distract him from another. One thing does not

00:22:29--> 00:23:06

occupy him preoccupy him so that he doesn't have time for another. He is Sameer he is bullied, how many people he is listening to at the same time? How many people made girl you know when you're standing in tomorrow? I don't know about you. But I think about this, that the person sitting next to me they're also praying and Allah was listening to them. And Allah is also listening to me. So I feel that there's a competition over here. You know, really there's a competition my salah should be better than this person standing next to me, you know, no offense, but that's what I want. Allah Samir, He is believed. Why do you doubt his power? Why do you doubt his ability? Do you even know

00:23:06--> 00:23:35

who your Lord is? Insert the Astina 82 Allah says in nama Maru either or other che and Enya Poulan o con fire Khun Alam tara, do you not see an Allah ha that indeed Allah Hughley do Leila? He admits the night into what finna ha into the day. Not that the day has to go first. And then the night will come. So there is a gap in the middle. No, there is no gap in the middle.

00:23:36--> 00:24:25

The day is there and what happens the night is admitted into the day. So gradually what happens the night overpowers the day you will lead you will ledger while I'm Jim will do just to enter into a narrow place. All right, and you will lead you he makes to enter. So he makes the night enter into the day where you will let you know how often late and he makes the day enter into the night. And so the cycle continues. Gradually one takes over the other was Sahara shumsa. Well, como and he has subjected the sun and the moon can learn all meaning the sun, the moon, the night the day, yesterday, it flows. Each of these celestial bodies, the sun and the moon. What are they doing?

00:24:25--> 00:24:26

They're flowing,

00:24:27--> 00:24:29

meaning they're moving.

00:24:30--> 00:24:52

They're continuing on their course. Isla until Edgerly. Musa Ma, a fixed term, a time that is appointed by Julie Musa. And what is this Jerry Musa that each celestial body is running its course for a specified term meaning until the term of their expiry and what is that the day of judgment?

00:24:53--> 00:24:59

Will Anila and indeed Allah be math or maluna with whatever you do here

00:25:00--> 00:25:40

As Hubie, he is fully aware, he is fully acquainted. So many things are happening in this universe every single second every single moment. Think about it right now. You know, there's rain, probably falling somewhere, there's snow falling somewhere, there's probably a bird that is flying. There's probably a snail that is crawling somewhere, there's probably a person who's sleeping a person who's eating a person who is walking a person who is talking a person who is writing a person who's doing something else. So many things are going on in this world in this universe, every single moment, and who has knowledge of that at all times? Allah?

00:25:41--> 00:26:13

This is who Allah is. We think we know him. And we think we have done justice to worshiping Him and OBEYING Him. But in all honesty, we have not an Allah Habima Dharma Luna Hobie valleca. That is meeting How is this possible that he's making the day come the night come the sun, the moon, each is working in its course going in its course and Allah is aware of everything. That is be Anila, because indeed, Allah who will help, he is the true one.

00:26:14--> 00:27:14

He makes all of this happen. He knows all of this, because he is the real God, he is a help. He is the true, the true God he is the truth, meaning he is there, he's making all this happen. He is the one the only one deserving of worship will Unoh and indeed, my other owner, whatever they call upon min Dooney. besides Allah, what is it? It is about? It is falsehood, it's not God. It is not. What is it then it is creation. And when it is the creation, it is weak, it can't do anything weak. So don't worship it. Worship who were Anila who Allah Allah you will covet and that indeed Allah He alone is Ally Ali Al kabhi, who is Ally, Ally, Ally ally is the one who has a new highness, the one

00:27:14--> 00:27:46

who has high meaning the one who's above everything. There is nothing except that it is under Allah. He is our leak, and he's copied the great the grand meaning he is greater than everything. He is high above everything, and he's greater than everything. This is why we say Allahu Akbar. Allah subhanahu wa taala. Darla, why do we say that over and over again?

00:27:47--> 00:28:05

To remind ourselves of Allah's greatness. There is nothing even close to being like him. How could there be something equal to him, then? And if that is not the case, then how could something deserve my worship? It's not correct.

00:28:06--> 00:28:58

Lm dot unhealthful Katagiri Phil Barry binaire Mattila Do you not see that ships sail through the sea through the water by the favor of Allah, meaning it is only Allah's blessing on you that ships can sail if Allah subhanaw taala did not allow that ships would never ever sail. Because isn't it amazing? That something as small as a pin would sink? Right the moment it touches water, what happens to it, it sinks but a huge massive ship that is loaded with tons and tons of weight. What will happen to it, it will float it will sail. So tragedy filled by hurry be near Mattila He it is only Allah's blessing that ships sail and beanie Rahmatullahi meaning the ships are carrying Allah's

00:28:58--> 00:29:37

blessings for you. Meaning it's because of this travel through water because of which trade is possible so that even in the winter, you can enjoy fruits and vegetables of summertime, right? You can still have carrots and celery and broccoli and whatnot, even though the place that you live at is covered in snow. Isn't it amazing? I mean, when I go to the grocery store, honestly because I grew up in Pakistan, right? So there you will only get seasonal fruits. Okay? If so, for example, if it's watermelon season, all you will find his just watermelon, right? And then you won't see it for the whole year. Literally. I don't know how things are now but when I was little this is how things

00:29:37--> 00:29:59

were features you could only get at certain times of the year. But here it's amazing. You go any time of the year and you will find basically whatever that you want, right. So this is possible because of what because of trade and trade would not have been possible if travel was not possible and travel not just through land, but also through water and also through

00:30:00--> 00:30:07

err, so be near Mattila he who's facilitating all of this for you. It is Allah subhanaw taala

00:30:08--> 00:30:45

liyu RIA come Minaya. TeeHee so that he may show you of his signs Minaya Ibrahim meaning his amazing wonders that you can witness only when you are at sea. You cannot witness these Ayad if you're not at sea if you don't travel by sea, in the field Alika yet Lee Kunis for Baron Shaco. But all of these if these wonders, these amazing signs these amazing life lessons can only be gained by WHO, those who are extremely patient and those who are extremely grateful.

00:30:46--> 00:31:18

Now ships, this sail through the sea, and over here Allah subhanaw taala says Lee Uriah calm Minaya. TeeHee when ships sail through the sea, they show you Allah, if Allah has amazing signs, his wonders, what I add, do we see, do we learn when we go on ships? When we travel through water? What are the ayat that we witness? Think about it, what are the amazing signs the amazing things that happen that we witnessed at sea?

00:31:19--> 00:31:24

Has anybody gone boating, on a ship? Maybe canoeing even? Yeah.

00:31:26--> 00:32:10

Just the fact that you're traveling on water. And right underneath you is like so much life and so many creatures that you don't even know about and how deep the water is. It's hidden? Literally, it's hidden. I mean, water is clear. If you think about it, it's so clear, you see through it. But at sea, what do you see beyond that blue carpet that's beneath the ship? What do you see? Nothing. Hardly anything. You never know, there may be a whole lot of sharks beneath you a whole lot of whales or fish or whatever beneath you, but you can't see. But there there, isn't it. So what does is show to us that there are things that Allah subhanaw taala has created. They exist, they are

00:32:10--> 00:32:45

there, but they are beyond our vision. Some things are law, Hera and others are bethlen. It's like there's a veil of the unseen. Go ahead. It's like the illusion of depth. Like you could be on a huge like, spans of water or whatever. And it could be like really shallow, and you would never know. Like, I remember I went kayaking once and I was so far away from like the edge of the water. And still I got stuck. I got stuck in the mud underneath. And I had to get out of my kayak to,

00:32:46--> 00:32:52

like get unstuck. Yes, that's true. See, the first thing that I mentioned earlier that

00:32:53--> 00:33:06

so many things that are smaller than ships, they will sink, right, but ships will sail, they will float, they won't sink unless they're broken, right or there are waters coming in and eventually they drown.

00:33:07--> 00:33:32

So life just as ship sail only because Allah subhanaw taala has created, you know the laws of physics such right that permit the sailing of ships. Life can only exist when Allah subhanaw taala has allowed it to exist. ships could not sail if Allah did not allow. Likewise, life cannot exist.

00:33:33--> 00:33:42

Without Allah's permission, the sailing of ships is entirely Allah's gift. Life is also entirely Allah's gift.

00:33:44--> 00:34:17

Another thing we see is that at sea, you know, for example, ships are sailing winds, they really affect the speed the direction, don't think they do. Now, sometimes you might feel that the winds that are blowing are against against your favor, you want to go in a particular direction, and the winds are not blowing in that direction. They're not in your favor, basically. Right? But even the most unfavorable winds can be turned into favorable winds if you set your sails right,

00:34:18--> 00:34:59

isn't it if you set them right, and you have to learn it's a whole Old skill. It's an entire science literally, I remember we were in New York once we went to the what is it? The water over there? I don't know what it is. Anyway, so over there, there were literally teaching lessons on how to use ships, boats that have sails. It's a whole science, literally, you have to know how to set your sails right? If you want the winds to be in your advantage, because every time they're not going to blow the way you want them to. Likewise in life, things will happen that are not necessarily in your favor or so they may seem that they're not in your favor. You

00:35:00--> 00:35:14

But if you set your sales right, then what will happen? Everything will turn in your favor. And what are your sales? It's your thinking. It's your approach. It's your actions. It's what you do.

00:35:15--> 00:35:41

Then another important thing that we learned at sea is that if you think about it, the sea, I mean, any body of water, it's so huge, isn't it? If you don't have a goal, if you don't have a direction to which you're headed to, you could get lost very easily. There's plenty of space to roam around to wander around, isn't it? And in life, also, there's plenty of roaming and wandering around that you can do.

00:35:43--> 00:35:48

Exactly, you could waste your life, you could waste your time, but that will be destructive.

00:35:49--> 00:36:17

I don't know about you. But I remember when I first learned how to drive, I was like, I want to go here and I want to go there. Let me explore what's on this treat. And let me explore what's on that road. It was like why I really had to control myself, because it's not like you can just go the car is using gas, right? And your time is going into it. So yes, there's plenty of things that you can do. But you better have a goal when you go out, isn't it otherwise, you'll end up wasting your time you'll end up wasting your life.

00:36:20--> 00:36:50

Not since because of the water around them. ship sinks because of the water that gets in them. So do not let what's happening around you get inside you and wave you down. Very true. Ships do not sink because of the water that is around them. They sink because of the water that gets inside them. So in life, there are many risks, many dangers, many crazy things that are going on. But don't let them get to you.

00:36:51--> 00:37:30

Don't let them get to you. And like we discussed earlier that the winds they're not in your control. Right? These gusts are not in your control, you have to set your sails right. So welcome. Sometimes the water seems very harmless. And you might want to go for a swim. One of my friend's husband, he would go in Florida, every weekend on the beach, and he would take his little baby and teach her how to swim. And one day I don't know the baby was crying, he brought the baby back and gave to the mom and suddenly he got pulled in. And nobody knows how it seems so harmless. Then she lost her husband and that his body was floating a little while later.

00:37:35--> 00:37:52

At Sea, there are also many dangers from above, from around from beneath, isn't it? And for your protection, what do you have to stay in your ship? Right for your safety. In life also there are many dangers.

00:37:53--> 00:37:59

And we have to take shelter with what with that which Allah subhanaw taala has given us

00:38:01--> 00:38:19

the dean that he has given us the ways of the world that Allah subhanaw taala has given us we have to use them in order to go through this life in safety and security. So Allah has placed many signs but only those with Sabah and Shakur will notice these signs

00:38:20--> 00:38:21

at sea.

00:38:22--> 00:38:30

What do you need? subber? Until what? Until you get your catch. So for example, if you go fishing,

00:38:31--> 00:38:34

have you ever gone fishing, not necessarily in the middle of the sea, but anywhere.

00:38:35--> 00:38:45

When you go fishing, I remember once we went as a family, okay, and after a little while, the boys who were really adamant about catching some fish, they said, Please take the kids away.

00:38:46--> 00:38:58

Take the kids away, you guys go home, we'll bring the fish. Why? Because the kids kept making noise. And because of the noise. All right, every time something would happen. The fish, they couldn't catch them.

00:38:59--> 00:39:23

They really couldn't. So we have to leave. And then finally in the evening, they brought the fish. So see you have to have supper until you get your catch, right. If you don't have supper, if you want to catch your fish immediately the moment you put your net in the moment you put your fishing rod whatever in, right? You want the fish immediately you don't have sub, you're gonna go with nothing.

00:39:24--> 00:39:59

Right? The journey on Sea is also very different. It's longer. It takes many days. Sometimes when you're crossing an ocean of a big river. It could take many hours, it could take days it could take weeks, isn't it. So for that also for that journey you need sober. You can't give up in the middle. That would be foolishness if you give up in the middle. And yes, it's very difficult to feel seasick and all of that but you have to have silver until you reach your destination and this is what is needed in life. Also, when you set your goal, there are going to be child

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

lunches, there are going to be difficulties. But don't be foolish. Don't give up. Keep going, keep going. You need supper until you get to your destination. And once you get to your destination, you achieve your goal, then what is it that you need sugar? gratitude to Allah because it is only by Allah's gift that you were able to get there. If Allah didn't allow you, you would not have survived that journey, you would not have completed that journey. So many things could have happened along the way to literally destroy you. I mean, if you think about it, a car accident Yes, it's bad train accident. Yes, it's bad, but an accident at sea. It's life threatening. Basically. We have seen in

00:40:41--> 00:41:17

recent years how many people have died at sea, isn't it? How many people have lost their lives? One accident is enough to literally destroy it. So once we get to our destination once we achieve something, then no pride over there. Only gratitude to who?
