Why do you think this verse is repeated over and over again? The same is true for be a yeller? You're a big comer to Kanban. What's the reason behind repetition?
What do you think?
Pardon? Okay, emphasis of what?
Okay? It's a reminder of gratitude, that after every blessing we are reminded, which blessings Will you deny, as in? Won't you be grateful? So the purpose of the repetition is to firstly make us recognize every single one of these blessings. Because very often, we are surrounded by blessings, but we don't see them. We don't recognize them. And if we cannot recognize them, then how can we be grateful?
So we are made to recognize the blessings over here. As Allah says, in Surah, najem, I 55. For be a yeller, you're a beggar. That Amara, which Blessings of your Lord will you doubt, you have doubt? Look around, look at this one to be grateful for this one to be grateful for that. Another reason is that when we are being told again and again, which Blessings of your Lord will you deny, what's the message, be grateful? The purpose of saying this is to tell us that we should be grateful.
And in total, Aarav is 69. Allah says, furred Kuru Allah Allah He, la la Kang to flee Hoon, remember the hola of Allah in order that you may be successful? So we are being taught gratitude over here. And we might feel that oh, the idea of repeating a verse again and again, what's the point of it, this is also a style All right of speech of eloquence. In some situations, eloquence means brevity being very brief.
And in other situations, eloquence means repetition.
Okay, the question is, how can we be grateful for all of these things? You tell me?
How?
Yes.
Okay, by taking care of the blessings that you've been given? Yes.
Okay, how can you be grateful for the blessing of fruits that you eat? Or the sun that you see or the time that you have? Fun?
Yes.
Yes. I mean, if you think about it, in this surah, we're being made to recognize the blessings, look at this, and look at this and realize this and realize that recognition itself is a form of gratitude. Because whereas recognition, this realisation of blessings were in the heart, and sugar is also with the call. So seeing, recognizing, appreciating, this is part of gratitude, too. And we must do that. Sometimes we become so busy in our lives. You know, one thing after the other that we overlook, we don't take the time to feel grateful. We don't. And we need to do that. Yesterday, some of you may have noticed that I disappeared after class. The reason was that I had a final exam at
two o'clock. All right. Now, how often is it that you have an exam on a Saturday, and I couldn't change it because I'm not Jewish. On Hamdulillah, any one of the only reason if you could change your exam day was if you had a religious reason, I didn't have a religious reason. I didn't have work at that time. I couldn't come up with any reason I couldn't move it.
It was a two o'clock. And you can imagine my state since the past week, how am I going to do it, because after all, it's sort of calmer. And it's not an hour long class, it's to two hours plus, and then I had to go all the way over to the exam center. It was gonna take me time, and then I had to review and I had to study and you can imagine and I'm taking these exams after 10 years away from school, you know, you have to relearn many of those things. So, you can imagine my state and Alhamdulillah when I was sitting in the exam, you know, I just took a moment. And I was thinking about how perfect it was that I had for an class before my exam, and a class in which we were doing
sudut comma Welaka DSRL Khurana li Vickery for Hilmi Muda. Que Quran is easy. Don't stress out. Honestly, if I didn't have the class, I don't know how I would be.
Seriously, I think I would be having serious stress problems. All right. This is also a blessing of Allah. We don't see Allah's blessings that how when things are apparently extremely difficult in that is also a block
asking when things are beyond your control in that is also a blessing. It's a blessing.
So take time to appreciate, why is it that we are taught of God in the morning and God in the evening of the spear and hand in the morning and in the evening? Why?
So that we can feel grateful take time.
So,
there's always blessed there's also a blessing and hardships that we don't realize. I was listening to an example recently, in 97, during the Hajj season, there was a like a very dangerous like a fire that had broken out in the camps. Someone I knew was actually there for Hajj that year. And they got really sick while they were in the home. So they got delayed in their journey to the cap and the tent. And I remember them telling me that oh, we paid for it. And we were so stressed how we weren't getting a campsite. And you know how it was very unfair that even though we'd paid for it, we were losing out on it. And so they're very frustrated, but they had to camp like higher up on the hill
and a family was willing to share for them. And they were telling me how that same night they looked over the camp to see the fire in the places that they would have originally gotten the campsite and but because they were delayed because of it they weren't, you know, they were saved from exactly. You see, gratitude can only come if we realize that our Lord is a rocket man. Meaning he is always merciful in everything he does everything he decides everything he commands. So there is nothing happens in my life, except that it is from Allah's mercy. It is from Allah's mercy. So then there is no need to stress out. No need to freak out because I am enveloped by Allah's Rama. My Rob is a rock
man. And it's the name of Allah of rock man that gives us hope that in no situation, should we ever feel that there is no reason to continue or it's just too difficult. It's all over.
No, man, this is something that should bring the sugar
slog up just to answer the sisters question about how can we be grateful I just want to share something quickly. Before when I used to work University and work was my life. It was from home university that home to bus to my office and back to Boston, everything was just
Yeah, and then weekend and all that. So it was back and forth. It didn't give me any second to even thing. And then as soon as I got married, my office moved, I moved. So I stopped. I've quit working because the commute was too long. And just when I quit working, it was the winter winter followed by summer and summer I was like, Wow, this world is so green. It's kind of odd. And then I realized this is because I used to work and I was so busy. Even on the subways, I would read Quran but I wouldn't reflect you know, it's because I didn't give myself the minute to even think outside of where my circle outside of what I was in outside of my work outside of my life. I didn't even look
at the sky, I would just look at the sky and be like, Okay, tomorrow have a presentation to make and this and that. But, you know, after marriage after when I had, ultimately nothing to do, I would then look at the trees. And I was like, Oh my God, this leaf is so big. And I'm not saying that, you know, you only need that time. I'm just saying. I'm just giving you my example so that you all can think about that. Yes, we are busy life goes on. But we shouldn't forget about reflecting and we should actually look at each and everything and really think that this is a truly blessing of Allah subhanaw taala. Yes, make time to feel and recognize and appreciate Allah's blessings. Slowly.
Recently, there was a fire in an Emirates Airways flight that landed in Dubai. And to all the 282 people on board. I don't know the exact number they all were saved. And one man he missed his flight only because his wife started to be very sick on the flight. And then he tried to travel with his son and the son was just crying for the mother. So he was forced to get off. And he said that if I was on that flight, I would not have been saved because I have a knee problem. And I couldn't move like the others. Like everybody had to slide out.
I mean, even Yeah, even though he's not a Muslim, I was just thinking, look at the mercy of Allah that how he was saved by just not being on that flight.
If we believe in Allah as a rock man, then there's always a reason to be grateful. Then we will see Allah's blessings only everywhere around us.
Bless Salam Alikum also we have to count the blessing of the family, you know, your family, your husband, your children, they're with you and feel like it's okay there was like you take it normal, but one of my friends she was telling me when her husband died, she said I didn't know the blessing of husband until I lose him. When he died. I know how I was blessed to have unless instead with
say that we have to appreciate now before we lose him, Yes,
I was a bit lame and she
couldn't Luminar lay her fan, everyone upon it meaning upon the earth will perish. This is the reality of everything that we've been given that eventually it will end it will go away. So before it goes away, before we are gone, let's show some gratitude. Fan in finance, finance is to pass away to perish to cease to exist. So everything on this earth is going to end it is going to cease to exist. It's going to perish into a Kasasa 88.

will all yes, because remember su Al is in two ways. So Al is through words and it is also through * it is through my call and it is through * it is through what a person says May I please have this Can I please have this can you give this to me?
