00:01:16 --> 00:02:02
			inshallah, we will continue with our study of the Most Beautiful Names of Allah the Exalted and
today inshallah We will begin with the name of Allah Al musar is, this is a name that we came across
when we were learning about one of the names of Allah subhanaw taala in our previous session, where
we came across the Hadith where the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says, The Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam said that in Allahu Allah moosari that Indeed Allah is Al moosari, he is an
absolute Basset He is the one who expands or the one who constricts things, and he is a reserved or
a rasik, meaning the one who provides so we see that this name is actually mentioned in the sooner
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:57
			it does not come in the Quran. And the meaning of this name is we, when we look at the word Elmo,
sorry, this is from the word Serato and sarala, is to light a fire. And of course, when fire is
kindled, it's understood that it's going to increase and decrease depending on you know, the fuel
and depending on the wind, etc. So sound on now is to light a fire or to make it burn fiercely. And
of course, that would be by adding more and more fuel. So, fire is something that increases and
decreases, you can see the flames rising up and you can see them decreasing. So, flames increase and
decrease and the series is to do so intensely meaning to light a fire very intensely to cause an
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:51
			increase in the fire and from the same root as the word series and sorry, in the Quran, it comes for
the fire or the blazing hellfire. So, the series also means to cause increase or decrease to the
prices of things and when it comes to you know the prices of things or the value of different items
in the market. Of course, you know, these these values or, or the prices they increase and decrease
because of many factors. So, Sarah is actually to fix the amount of the prices of food, why because
it when it fluctuates too much then this is something that is difficult on people. So this is what
people want, that prices should be fixed. And we learned that once in Medina, there is a hadith and
		
00:03:51 --> 00:04:36
			a Buddha would that there was a period of severe inflation where the food prices were extremely
high. So the companions requested the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to impose price controls,
to fix the prices so that people would not be able to, you know, increase the prices too much. So
this is when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Allah is almost married, meaning I am
not I am not allowed to do that it is Allah subhanaw taala who determines the value the price of
things, he is allowed to build the one who with his will and wisdom, you know, restricts or
constricts certain matters, and he is Albacete, the one who with his wisdom and his will expands or
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:59
			increases certain matters. So, meaning that Allah subhanaw taala is the one who gives things their
their value. So, what this means is that Allah subhanaw taala is the one by whose will the prices of
things increase or decrease and the statement of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in the law
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:50
			Ha ha, hoo well moosari that Indeed Allah, it is He, who is Elmo sorry, this, you know, emphasizes
the fact that it is only by the will and power of Allah subhanaw taala that, that the prices of
things are determined or they fluctuate, meaning it is not people who have the ability, or the
authority to impose price controls, because we see that when it comes to, you know, the matter of,
you know, the the price or the value of different things, there are so many factors, that effect
that, you know, for example, because of supply and demand, like last year, you know, when it comes
to face masks, nobody wanted them, right. I mean, it was something that, you know, nobody really
		
00:05:50 --> 00:06:35
			cared about. And now all of a sudden, you know, people who are making face masks and selling them,
you know, people in those industries, you know, they're making so much money. And this is a time
where, you know, sometimes face masks can also be extremely expensive. So, because of, you know,
demand, and also because of supply, we see that the prices of things increase and decrease, when it
comes to food prices, you know, there are times when certain crops get ruined, or because of
natural, you know, causes, there isn't much yield, there isn't much harvest, or because of, you
know, lack of rain or because of fire, etc. You know, this is something that affects the, the the
		
00:06:35 --> 00:07:24
			value of food. Likewise, if there's, you know, ships carrying freight, you know, they drown, and
things like that, or because of, you know, political issues, you know, sanctions, trade tariffs,
etc, all of these factors affect, you know, the price or the value of things, when it comes to, you
know, we can see in recent years, you know, in certain places, when it comes to real estate, it
very, very expensive, and then remember the time of recession, when people were literally walking
out of their homes, and, and houses were being sold for such little money. So, all of this shows us
that, you know, these are matters which are beyond people's control, any when when the price of
		
00:07:24 --> 00:08:14
			something increases, because of natural factors because of natural causes, who is it that you can
blame? Who is it that you can hold responsible, you cannot. So, this shows us that it is Allah
subhanaw taala, who is truly in control, you know, we realize how Allah subhanaw taala is in control
of all matters, when we experience certain things in our, you know, personal lives, but then also
when it comes to our economic state, you know, of your locality of your province of your country, or
in general, all over the world. These are all situations that remind us that really, we are not the
ones who are in control, it is Allah soprano thada who is in control. So when Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:58
			is almost married, what does that mean? It means that we should believe that the price at which we
have, you know, found something being sold or the price at which, you know, we end up buying
something was actually by the will and plan of Allah subhanaw taala You know, sometimes we go and
find something on sale, and, you know, we feel like we got a really good deal, or we go and we get
to buy something really expensive, and then and we are in need of it, we have no choice, uh, we, we
do spend a lot of money, but then we find out that somebody else got the exact same thing on a much
lesser, you know, for a for a much lesser price. So, why the difference, this was by Allah subhanaw
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:45
			taala his decree by his other, right, you bought a house 10 years ago, you paid very little money,
and today somebody is buying the same house and they're paying so much money. So, this difference is
by the other of Allah and realize that this is a unique test for you designed by Allah subhanaw
taala. So, instead of thinking about, you know, I should have bought the house 10 years ago or I you
know, I should not have bought, you know, such and such thing on that day, I should have waited a
few more days, instead of you know, being stuck on I should have, I could have, you know, these are
things that put us in, you know, in in unnecessary anxiety and, and also they make us doubt, you
		
00:09:45 --> 00:10:00
			know, our decisions make us more indecisive, you know, just put your trust in Allah Allah subhanaw
taala is almost sorry that it is by his will, that I ended up you know, buying this particular item
for this much money. This was a unique test for
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:47
			To me, you know, designed by Allah subhanaw taala and this or the name of Allah and Massara also
shows us that, you know, it also teaches us that when we are in any, you know, in some financial
constraint or we are going through some economic crisis, you know, as a family or even as as a
country then or even when we're going to purchase something and we want you know, a good deal we
want a good value, then we should call upon Allah al-musawi any made dar to Allah, that Yeah, yeah,
Allah, Allah masari you know, make this matter easy for me make this deal easy for me, you know,
sometimes in a person's business, you know, they're not able to sell things or they have to continue
		
00:10:47 --> 00:11:24
			to reduce the prices or or they see that there's so much you know, competition because of which, you
know, your prices have to be decreased, and things like that, this is a time when you call upon
Allah by this name and masari that he or Allah, you're the one who determines the value you are the
one who fixes the price of things. So, make this in my favor and make this matter profitable for me,
I mean, the next Name of Allah subhanaw taala that we will be looking at today is the name I look
away
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:36
			look away the one who is powerful the ever powerful. Now the name of Allah alpha we occurs nine
times in the Quran
		
00:11:37 --> 00:12:07
			and the name alpha we is from Buddha meaning away is the one who has Buddha and what is the word
Buddha is strength or power awliya is when something becomes strong or robust or sturdy and it is
the opposite of barf barf is to be weak. And the opposite of this is cool, is to be strong.
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:22
			It is slightly different from from ability because wondra is to have ability and courage is to is to
be unable. So kodra is the opposite of reads. And
		
00:12:23 --> 00:13:20
			is the opposite of barf. So, an away is the one who is strong, the one who is powerful. What does
that mean when Allah subhanaw taala is alcovy What does that mean? It means that first of all, Allah
subhanaw taala has over his power is absolute, it is ultimate, it is permanent, meaning his power is
the strongest, his his strength is, is the most powerful, and, and his strength his power is such
that it does not weaken with time and his strength, his power is such that nothing at all, is
outside of his power. Nothing is beyond his strength, meaning he is so strong, he is so powerful,
that everything is weak before him
		
00:13:21 --> 00:14:10
			It means that he is free of need of everyone, he is independent of all because he is ultra weak. And
he is free of any weakness, which means that his power cannot be defeated. It cannot be weakened, it
cannot be disabled in any way. His power, His strength is such that it that it is that Allah
subhanaw taala has created so much any when you look at all the creation around you realize that
this is the work of a look away and see how powerful he is that he has created all of this. Think
about all of the forces that exist within the universe and Allah subhanaw taala is the creator of
all of them.
		
00:14:11 --> 00:15:00
			And his schoolwork, his power is such that he just wills and whatever he wills wherever he wants
happens. So nothing can become an obstacle to His will. And he so powerful he is that when he wills
something when he wants something to happen, then nothing at all can become an obstacle for him. And
when Allah subhanaw taala is away It means that every power is belittled before his power, it is
nothing compared to him or before him. And it means that nothing at all can overcome him. Nothing at
all can compete with him or can prevent him from executing His will for
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:53
			Doing what he wants, and nothing can escape him. And, and nothing can repel his decree his will,
nothing can win against Allah subhanaw taala. And this also means that nothing can cause benefit or
harm to Allah subhanaw taala because he's alcovy He is so powerful, that no one can harm him in any
way. And no one could benefit him in him in any way because he is, he is all powerful. And when
Allah subhanaw taala is a way it means that all creatures are in his control. So this means that no
one can move. No one can do anything, except by the power that Allah subhanaw taala has given them
except by the ability that Allah Subhana Allah has given them only after he wills he allows. And
		
00:15:53 --> 00:16:46
			when Allah subhanaw taala is alcovy It also means that he is the source of all power, meaning he
gives power to whom He wills, as per his wisdom, and he takes it away from whom He wills as per his
wisdom. So in Surah assura ir 19 Allah subhanaw taala says, Allah who locally from bury body, yellow
Zuko, Manisha wa who will karela disease, that Allah is kind to his slaves, he provides whomsoever
He wills, and he is the karoui that disease. So when Allah subhanaw taala is alcovy What are we
supposed to do? What is our part? How should we think? What is it that we should believe? What is it
that we should do? Beating the belief, you know, in this name, and the knowledge of this name, how
		
00:16:46 --> 00:17:48
			should that impact our lives, our actions, and also our thinking? So, the first thing is that when
Allah subhanaw taala is alcovy it means that we should believe that all power is with Allah, we
should believe that Allah is the source of all strength, La hawla wala quwata illa Billah there is
no mind or power except with Allah. And every power that exists is it has been created by him and it
has been given by him, because when he is all powerful himself, and he is the source of all power,
that means that if any creature has any power, any strength, any force, it has been created, and it
has been given to them by Allah subhanaw taala, whether it is the kua that the angels have, and we
		
00:17:48 --> 00:18:37
			learn in the Quran about how Angel Jabri is so powerful, and it could be the power that people have,
it could be the power that is with the jinn, you know, the strength, you know, that the jinn have,
or different animals, you know, for example, certain animals their power, you know, the power, the
force that they have in their jaws, in their teeth is so strong, you know, certain other animals,
they're able to run so fast, they're able to climb so fast. So, any power that any creature has,
whether it is in the living things, or in the nonliving things even remember that Allah subhanaw
taala is the creator of that power. So, whether it is you know, the force the power that exists in
		
00:18:38 --> 00:19:18
			water, or in fire, or in wind, or in earth, or in iron, in the mountains, in you know, in the sky,
in the rivers, in the seas, in the oceans, in ice, in snow, in heat, any force, any strength,
remember, it has been created by Allah, soprano, thada and all of that combined Yeni if if we were
to put together if we were to consolidate all the power and all the force that the creatures have
all of that power, before the power of Allah is nothing.
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:30
			This is the power of Allah subhanaw taala in total Hajj is 74 Allah subhanaw taala says Mercado
Allah haka cadre, they have not,
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:59
			you know, they have not appraised Allah, any that they don't give Allah the status, or or the the
worth, that Allah subhanaw taala truly has, they don't realize how powerful Allah subhanaw taala is,
and because of that, they don't show due respect. They don't think well, or properly about Allah
subhanaw taala in Allah Allah karoui University
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:48
			Indeed Allah is sure the GUI, he is ever strong he is Aziz he is ever mighty. So, remember that all
the powers all the creative powers combined and either nothing before Allah subhanaw taala. earlier
also we learned about how the earth will be in the hands of Allah on the day of judgement, the skies
will be rolled up in the hands of Allah on the Day of Judgment, any Allah subhanaw taala is alcovy
So, where will the force of all the waters and all the fire and you know all the wind and all of the
earth and all of the creatures combined where will that go? It will be nothing, it will it will
dwindle away before the power of alcovy and this is something that we should never forget. You know,
		
00:20:48 --> 00:21:39
			sometimes what happens is that when we when we you know see something very beautiful, or very
powerful, we had very impressed by it. And we get deceived by that. So we learned in total Caf about
how that man who owned the two gardens when he saw them he said you know that I don't think this is
going to end at all. This is going to stay here forever. So his friend reprimanded him that well Ola
is the hunter genetic occulta Masha Allah hula quwata illa Billah that why is it that when you you
know entered your garden? Why didn't you say Masha Allah, this is you know, whatever that Allah
wills any This is because Allah subhanaw taala wielded Excuse me.
		
00:21:48 --> 00:22:46
			Okay, so why don't you say that? Masha Allah La quwata illa Billah that what that this is what Allah
subhanaw taala has willed and there is no power or no mind except by Allah subhanaw taala. So, when
Allah soprano thought is a way it means that we should believe that he is the source of absolute
strength, and he is the giver of power and all power before him. You know all the power of the
creatures before him is nothing. Secondly, when Allah subhanaw taala is alcovy it means that we
should remember that Allah subhanaw taala has power, His power is permanent. Our power, our strength
is not permanent. And the power, the strength of any creature also is not permanent. So we shouldn't
		
00:22:46 --> 00:23:35
			get deceived by the strength that we have, or by the strength that any creature has. Because no
matter how strong someone is, they will eventually become weak except for Allah subhanaw taala Allah
Subhana Allah tells us in sudo room I have 54 that Allah who levy Hello kakum mille barfing that
Allah is the one who has created you from weakness, meaning you were weak. So Majora mimbar, the
barfing quwata. And then he made after your weakness, strength, meaning you were weak at the
beginning, you were when you were little. And then Allah subhanaw taala is the one who gave you
strength, he is the one who gave you power. And you see when a child is born, poor little creature
		
00:23:35 --> 00:24:03
			doesn't even have the strength to hold its neck. Right to to even have control over, you know, his
arms and legs, or even eyes Subhana line the first few days, babies don't even have the strength to
you know, focus their vision. And then what happens over time, they develop that goolwa that
strength. So who gave them that cooler, it is Allah subhana wa tada and then
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:53
			some Majola mimbar, the quwata Darfur, then he made after a poor weakness again, meaning when you
decline, your your strength, your power, it declines over time, and we experienced this, you know,
perhaps there was a time when you were able to run really fast and now you cannot even think about
running. Perhaps there was a time when you could you know go hiking and go swimming and you know, do
this and do that and now there is no way you could even think about about doing that. So, when it
comes to the force, the power that we have, remember that it is limited, it has been given to us as
a gift from Allah subhanaw taala as a test, and we should realize that it is temporary. It is not
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:59
			going to be with us forever. And for always. It's temporarily with us. So we should not
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:40
			Get deceived by what Allah subhanaw taala has given us right now. In total Casals is 78, we learn
about the story of our own, who had a lot of wealth and he said in number 82, who Allah eliminator
in the, he said, I have been given this because of my knowledge, meaning I have all of this because
I know what to do. I have earned all of this I have acquired all of this with my expertise, you
know, with my knowledge with my skill. So it is said a welcome yarlung an Allah, Allah communicably
mineral caroni man who ushered Doom in who What
		
00:25:41 --> 00:26:32
			does he not know that Allah subhanaw taala destroyed before him generations who were way stronger
than him, who were who were way more powerful than him, I shut the man who wasn't there kuwa was way
more than the kuwa that qarun possess to act through jamara and they also had more, you know, in
terms of what they had accumulated. So don't get deceived by by what you have been given by the
power of the force that Allah subhanaw taala has given you in total belcarra I want 65 we learn
while we are on larina wala mu AB our own Allah Azza Anil quwata Lila heater Mira, that on the Day
of Judgment, those people who did wrong and learn wrong can be, you know, sin over here, it could be
		
00:26:32 --> 00:27:20
			oppression, even any those who abuse their power, what will they realize on the day of judgment when
they see the punishment, that Anil quwata Lila, he jumia that all power belongs to Allah. And he
they will realize at that time, that they truly have no power. And it was because of the power that
they had in the world, that they committed so much oppression, that they did so much wrong. So on
the Day of Judgment, people will realize that you know what, we don't own any power, all power
belongs to Allah subhanaw taala. Then when Allah subhanaw taala is alcovy it means that we should be
grateful for the who whether Allah subhanaw taala has given us and we should not abuse it. Because
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:25
			consider how Allah subhanaw taala is so powerful alcovy
		
00:27:27 --> 00:28:22
			yet he is he is just he is kind, he is generous towards his slaves. So if Allah has given us power,
does that mean that we should become abusive and oppressive? No, this would be extremely wrong. So
those who abuse the power the COA that Allah has given them the look at how Allah subhanaw taala
deals with them into the facilite I have 15 we learned for a ma don't festac Babu fill out of the
belated help. So as for odd they were arrogant in the earth without any right. And what is meant by
their arrogance is their abuse of power. We'll call no man Asha domina Kawa and they said who is
stronger than us in might? Any there is no one who is stronger than us. We are the best. We are the
		
00:28:22 --> 00:29:10
			strongest, we are the mightiest any, they were very arrogant about the power that they possessed. So
it is said a while amuro and Allah Allah de halakhah home, didn't they consider the fact that Allah
is the one who created them, who are shadowman whom co he is stronger than them in power. He Allah
subhanaw taala his power will always be greater than yours. Always. So don't abuse the power that
Allah subhanaw taala has given you and sort of the Lafayette I have 22 we learn Valley can be under
whom can t him Russolo one bill by unity for careful that the previous nations what happened with
them, their messengers would come to them with clear proofs. But the people denied, they rejected
		
00:29:10 --> 00:29:59
			they refuse to believe they were arrogant. So what happened for a home Allah, so Allah sees them
meaning with punishment, in the whole away young indeed he is away, he is ever strong, ever powerful
shadow copies severe in penalty. So when Allah subhanaw taala is alcovy This means that we should be
humble, we should not be deceived by the power that Allah has given us. We shouldn't be arrogant,
especially towards Allah subhanaw taala. And then when Allah subhanaw taala is a GUI, it means that
we should not despair and you whatever weakness that we are experiencing whatever loss that we are
experiencing, whatever void we now have in our lives, whatever emptiness You know, there is
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:58
			In our lives, realize that you are the slave of an Mateen. You are the creature of alpha we have the
one who is strong, the one who is mighty, the one who is a rezac. So don't despair. Allah Subhana
Allah says in Surah to that yet I have 58 that in Allah, who were was zirkel Luca till Mati, that
Indeed Allah it is he who is Allah Zack, the continual provider, and he is the CO were the possessor
of strength and Mateen, the one who is firm, he is the firm possessor of strength. So why despair?
Why why feel defeated? Why, what why I feel like you have nothing. You have Allah subhanaw taala and
if Allah subhanaw taala is with you, then you're fine. Don't despair. When Allah soprano thought is
		
00:30:58 --> 00:31:53
			Alawi, it also means that we should fear him the most. When he is so powerful, that no one can
escape him, that every power before him, is defeated. That it means that we should fear Allah
subhanaw taala the most. This is why we're told in the Quran over and over again. Fear a lot don't
fear people for that show when NASA was shoni do not fear people fear me. So why fear Allah because
he's, he's the he is alcovy and fear Allah. You know, sometimes what we think is that, you know, I
don't need to be afraid because Allah subhanaw taala is the strongest I trust in Allah. I you know,
I expect the best from Allah. You know, he, he knows everything. He's got everything in his control.
		
00:31:53 --> 00:32:44
			So, you know, I, I don't need to feel weak. And that's excellent. But it also means that we should
fear Allah. And yes, you don't fear people. You don't fear the world. But the fact that Allah
subhanaw taala is all powerful it means that we should fear Allah, Fear Allah, meaning fear him when
you're doing something wrong. fear him when you're disobeying his command. fear him the most

00:32:44 --> 00:33:33
			just what happened to the people of our own and those before them, that they disbelieved in the
verses of Allah. And what happened. Allah subhanaw taala sees them because of their sins, meaning he
punished them because of their sins in the law of kawayan. should either cob Indeed Allah is
powerful, severe in penalty. And he This is a threat and a warning that when Allah is so powerful,
fear Him, fear disobeying him, because if he decides to punish you, if he decides to Allahu Akbar,
if he decides to punish us for what we are doing, there is no safety. There's no getting away,
there's no survival. So, when Allah is a puppy, yes, we have hope. Yes, we don't fear the creation,
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:42
			but it also means that we should be humble before Allah and fear his or club fear his punishment,
		
00:33:43 --> 00:34:34
			when Allah subhanaw taala is alcovy It also means that we should seek strength from him, why because
all power is with him, he is the giver of power, he is the giver of strength. So, whether it is
strength that you need in your hands, strength that you need in your body, strength that you need in
your eyes, in your ears, in your you know, your in your ability to memorize in your ability to you

00:35:00 --> 00:35:49
			A lot of rain on you, and He will increase you in your strength, the cooler that you already have
the power that you already have. A last panel title will add to that Allah subhanaw taala increase
that. So if you want your kuwa to increase, realize that increase will only come by the will of
Allah. So don't seek power by disobeying Allah. Don't seek strength and power by opposing Allah. No
seek that strength and power by obeying Allah by by pleasing Him by doing things the right way into
an earlier one I went 160 Allah, Allah says he and sarcoma Allah who fell out lalibela calm, if
Allah helps you, there is no one that can overcome you at all. Well, hello calm and if Allah
		
00:35:49 --> 00:36:11
			subhanaw taala abandons you, from under levy on solocom embody then who is there who could help you
after him. And if Allah subhanaw taala decides to leave you and helped without any strength, then
who could help you, no one could help you. So when Allah subhanaw taala is alcovy then seek COA from
him azzawajal
		
00:36:13 --> 00:37:02
			then also when Allah subhanaw taala is away, and Allah has given us you know, some cool work,
whatever whoever that may be, then use that code or use that ability, how whichever it is for the
sake of Allah, in order to please Allah in order to support his Deen Allah Subhana Allah says in
Surah Al Hajj I have 40 well I am Soren Allah who my young sudo that Allah will definitely help the
one who helps him and he the one who helps Allah, the One who helps the religion of Allah, the cause
of Allah, the One who takes a step forward in the way of Allah, that Allah will definitely help that
person in the law chanukkah wa Yuna Aziz Indeed, Allah is powerful, he is mighty. So use the
		
00:37:02 --> 00:37:18
			strength that Allah has given you, whatever little it may be, to obey Allah subhanaw taala. To do
good to help the deen of Allah. And when you will do that Allah subhanaw taala will, will aid you,
while I answer on Allah who may ensue.
		
00:37:20 --> 00:38:07
			And use the schoolwork that Allah has given you to, to worship Allah better, to obey Him better. In
the inserter ibaka, we learn how to attain our cumbuco watton take what we have given you with
strength, meaning hold on to the book of Allah powerfully. And this doesn't just mean that you hold
on to it, you know, physically, that that physically, if you're holding the most have you hold it
with strength so that it doesn't fall, it doesn't slip from your hands. Rather, what this means is
that your adherence to the book of Allah, your connection with the book of Allah should be very
strong. And use your strength to be a reciter of the Quran. Use your strength to be a follower of
		
00:38:07 --> 00:38:29
			the Quran. And strength is needed over there. So the strength the power that Allah has given you,
don't just use it for worldly things. Of course, you have to use it for worldly things, but it
shouldn't all be exhausted in worldly goals, use it for the worship of Allah subhanaw taala and use
it for earning his approval.
		
00:38:30 --> 00:39:06
			When Allah subhanaw taala is alcovy and he has given us who were, then we should use that power to,
you know, we should use that strength, or the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, and what
mineral coway you hire on what a humble in Allah human movement, or if what he call in fire, this is
a Muslim, that the believer who is strong is better and more beloved to Allah than the believer who
is weak. Even though in in each believer there is goodness. And each person has their own, you know,
		
00:39:07 --> 00:39:59
			their own worth their own, you know, place near Allah subhanaw taala their own unique gifts and
talents and skills that Allah subhanaw taala has given them but the believer who is away is better
and more beloved to Allah. Why? Because with that Kuma with that strength, that believer is able to
do more. But Subhan Allah, what about the people who have all that cool, all that strength, all that
power in their body, in their, you know, in their mental capability, but yet they don't use that to
please Allah subhanaw taala any, we should truly be ashamed of ourselves if you know we have all of
that strength in our bodies and we don't use that to do something beneficial for ourselves or
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:53
			For others, he sometimes it's amazing how there are individuals who are overburdened. You know, with
work, it could be house chores, even. And there are other people who consider themselves completely
exempt, completely exempt simply because of their gender, or because of other things that they're
doing. Any Why? Why do we feel ashamed to do? You know, physical work, physical labor? Why do we
think that it is beneath us? Or why do we think that it is useless? When we see that the prophets of
Allah Who are the best of men, they use their kuwa not to Lord over people, not to boast, you know
of what they possessed? No, but to benefit people. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam used his
		
00:40:53 --> 00:41:40
			goolwa to, to, you know, dig the trenches. Right? And before that, to build the masjid, right,
people were carrying mud and the Prophet salallahu Urdu center was also carrying mud. People were
digging the trenches and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was working along with them. Right?
I shuttle de la Mourinho said that the prophets of Allah who earned his cinema at home, he would be
in the service of his family. What does that mean? That he wouldn't just be sitting there waiting to
be served by everybody? No, he would use his strength, his power to to help his family. And, and
this is, you know, something that every single person needs to reflect over that what Allah has
		
00:41:40 --> 00:42:28
			given us that COA, why why aren't we using that? Why are we just sitting with it? And why are we
expecting that other people should continue to, you know, work and, and exert themselves to a point
that they either snap, or their bodies become exhausted, and they're no longer able to do anything,
any, there should be some kind of, you know, equality, especially when it comes to, you know,
physical work. So, be useful with the strength that Allah subhanaw taala has given you, we learn
about mossadegh SLM in certain courses, i a 26, that when he reached madeon, and he saw that, you
know, two ladies are trying to keep their flock away from the water. He didn't just sit there, you
		
00:42:28 --> 00:43:10
			know, thinking, Oh, it's, you know, their problem, whatever. No, he went up to them. And he asked
them, what's the matter? How come you're not letting your animals drink? is there is there a problem
over here, and the ladies told him that, you know, we don't go with our flock until the shepherds
leave, when they leave, then we take our, you know, flock into the water. So mozzarella is sent out,
because it was who who knows when those shepherds were going to leave. And who knows if there was
going to be enough water left, for the flock of these ladies was already set up, took their flock to
the water, let them drink, and then he took the flock back to the ladies. And then he didn't ask for
		
00:43:10 --> 00:43:57
			any wage. He didn't ask for any compensation. He just went, and he sat on, you know, in the shade.
And one of the ladies she said to her father later on, yeah, but is that do who all my father hire
him. Because in the higher ominous that job, telco will, I mean, the best person you can hire is the
one who is karoui, who is strong, who uses his strength, and I mean, he is trustworthy, he's
reliable, meaning he took the flock and he returned it to us. And he's so strong, he came all the
way from Egypt to Medina, and he was exhausted, yet he managed to take our flock into the water, you
know, let them drink and then he returned our flock to us, this is cool. Any, the, you know, the
		
00:43:57 --> 00:44:52
			evidence that a person is truly strong is not, you know, how built their body is or how frequently
they go to the gym, or, you know, how much protein they you know, they consume etc. No, or how much
how little fat content there is in their body know, the real, you know, evidence that a person is
strong, that that a person, you know, has strength is what they do, and how they help others how
they are, you know, useful with the abilities that Allah subhanaw taala has given them, we learn
about use of rd his Salaam also that how he, you know, offered his services, right? To be able to
manage the resources of the land because the next 15 years we're going to be very crucial. So we see
		
00:44:52 --> 00:44:59
			this in the prophets of Allah, that they used their kuwa to benefit themselves and to benefit
others.
		
00:45:00 --> 00:45:46
			Here we are just boasting you know the cooler that we have the maximum we do is you know flex those
muscles take a selfie posted on you know social media so that people can be impressed by the
strength that we have or go to the gym and lift certain weights and you know take a you know a short
video etc and posted on social media and boast any Is this what the COA is for? No the COA that
Allah has given us is not so that we can show it off. Not so that we can impress people, impress men
or impress women know the score that Allah subhanaw taala has given us is for us to use and the
koalas Pousada has given us is both tangible and intangible. Right to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
		
00:45:46 --> 00:46:29
			wa sallam explained that the strong one is not the one who can defeat another in a fight. The strong
one is the one who is able to control his anger. So, Allah soprano, Tatas and karoui, he is the
strongest he is the source of strength, he is the giver of strength. So we should be humbled before
Him we should fear Him, we should be grateful for the strength that He has given us. And we should
use it in ways that please Him. Now when we look at the name of coway in the Quran, it is paired
with the name Allah Aziz, any many times in the Quran the name of Hawaii comes with the name Aziz
Aziz is mighty. So, for example, Instituto mujaddid is 21. Allah Subhana Allah says,
		
00:46:31 --> 00:47:26
			Allah subhanaw taala RSS ketubot Allahu la Ollie banana. Anna, will Rosalie in the LA haka we Yuna
Aziz, that Allah subhanaw taala has decreed that I will indeed overpower any that Allah subhanaw
taala will prevail. Allah and His messengers, any victory, success will be for Allah and for Allah's
messengers, because Indeed, Allah is away. He's Aziz, he is strong, he is mighty. So Allah is GUI
meaning he is powerful. And he is Aziz meaning he's able to execute his will, so none can resist
him. And then we see that the name also comes in the Quran with the shader club severe in penalty.
And this is a threat, a warning, that Allah is powerful, more powerful than those who commit
		
00:47:26 --> 00:47:44
			oppression on earth, He is more powerful than those who disobey him than those who are arrogant
before him. And he is should either top severe in penalty, meaning when he punishes them, that his
punishment for them is truly severe, and they cannot survive after that.
		
00:47:45 --> 00:47:53
			So when Allah subhanaw taala is alcovy How is it that we can call upon him by this beautiful name by
this excellent name?
		
00:47:54 --> 00:48:37
			Firstly, we see the Prophet sallallahu earning a Salam and he when he would make such that Tila
sajida Tila is that when you're reciting, you know, certain verses of the Quran were such that as
mentioned, then you also make such the right there in them. So, when he would be in such the
thilawa, he would say sajer, the wedge he alella, the holla who was shot per summer who were Bizarro
who be holy, he worked on what he that my face prostrates to the one who created it. I am putting my
face on the ground making such that to the one who created the space.
		
00:48:38 --> 00:49:32
			And Shaka, some are who Shaka is to split to create an opening. So he created the opening for its
hearing, its ability to hear, so that whole that we have in our ears, right? Because of which were
able to, you know, receive all of the sound waves, any that that has been created by who by Allah
subhanaw taala what Massara Who? And its vision, you need the vision that we have the eyes, the
opening, you know of the eyes that has also been created by Allah. So worship customer who were
basato How did he do that? Be holy, he will convert he by his might, and by his power. So it is with
the Kuma that Allah subhanaw taala has that he that he not only created us, but He created us with
		
00:49:32 --> 00:49:55
			all of these abilities. So this is a way of glorifying and praising and thanking Allah subhanaw
taala for the blessing that Allah has given us. Secondly, when it comes to calling upon Allah
subhanaw taala by his name Alka we, meaning the one who has schoolwork, then we should frequently
say it La hawla wala quwata illa Billah
		
00:49:56 --> 00:49:59
			meaning there is no might no power except
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:16
			with Allah, Who were the uni karoui is the one who has all kuwa so every color is, is with Allah And
if anyone has any color it has been given by Allah. Now the statement La hawla wala quwata illa
Billah
		
00:50:17 --> 00:51:02
			any It seems as though we're we're only praising Allah over here and yes indeed we are praising
Allah here. But this is a column of esteana meaning the statement of this is a way of seeking the
help of Allah. Because when you say there is no mind or power except by Allah, you're essentially
asking Allah that Allah help me. Ya Allah give me strength. All right, so this is this is a way of
seeking the help of Allah. And this is a reason why we're supposed to say La hawla wala quwata illa
Billah window oven says Haryana Sala Haryana, right, come to salah and come to success. Why do we
say Hola, La quwata illa Billah because when the more than is saying come to Salah, then we say yes,
		
00:51:02 --> 00:51:27
			we will come to Salah. But we can only do that by the help and power that Allah gives. So yeah,
Allah I asked you for the strength, the ability to pray to go to pray. And we also sell a hold on La
quwata illa Billah as a part of the art that we make when we when we leave the house, because again
when we're leaving the house, we are in need of Allah subhanaw taala is help. So this is why we we
say that hola La quwata illa Billah
		
00:51:28 --> 00:51:59
			Now, what does it mean La hawla wala quwata illa Billah hole hole means hasakah movement and couva
as you know means strength or power. So, La hawla wala quwata illa Billah means that no one can
move, no one can move. And no one can exert any strength, except by the by the will of Allah or
except by the tofik of Allah when Allah subhanaw taala enables them
		
00:52:00 --> 00:52:37
			no one can move, move as in LA hola because hola is to move. So no one can move meaning from sin to
obedience, right? Or from point A to point B or to repel any evil any, anything bad that is coming
their way. No one has, you know, the ability to move, okay, forward or backward or right or left,
right or, or shift, you know, change their condition, repel any evil.
		
00:52:39 --> 00:53:28
			You know, except when Allah subhanaw taala enabled them and we'll go over any no one has the
strength to worship Allah to do something good, to bring something good, you know their way to earn
something good, except by the tofik, the will of Allah subhanaw taala. So basically what we're
saying is all power is with Allah. I can't do anything, unless Allah enables me. I cannot be safe
unless Allah subhanaw taala makes me safe. So this is why we should say La hawla wala quwata illa
Allah a lot. And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said to one of the companions here has him,
UK filmin Hola, hola, La quwata illa Billah for in the home in kuno zildjian. It is from the
		
00:53:28 --> 00:54:11
			treasures of paradise. So said a lot. Now, we say this as part of the Dora. When we leave the house,
which is Bismillah Hito culto Allah Allah, the hola wala quwata illa Billah that In the name of
Allah, I leave In the name of Allah. I put my trust in Allah and there's no mind, no power except
with Allah. And these days, especially when you're leaving the house, there is a sense of fear. You
know, you are healthy, you are safe inside of your house, you go outside, you're vulnerable, you're
exposed to so many things you don't know what you might catch. milas partner to protect you, there
is that fear. So Bismillah I leave In the name of Allah, that will come to our Allah I put my trust
		
00:54:11 --> 00:54:39
			in Allah, La how La La quwata illa Billah there is no ability to repel any evil or to bring anything
good except by Allah by the tofield Kabbalah. So when a person says this when they're leaving the
house, it is said who did our coffeetable will kita that you have been guided, you have been
defended, and you have been protected. Allahu Akbar. So this is your protection, this is your
safety. Also, we learn
		
00:54:40 --> 00:54:59
			that in the night, in a hadith we learned this is a hadith and Buhari that whoever wakes up in the
night and says La ilaha illAllah hula hula sharika lahu mool Kula who will hand well who are other
cliche in Kadir Alhamdulillah, WA Subhana Allah wa la ilaha illAllah
		
00:55:00 --> 00:55:04
			Walla, Walla, Hola, La quwata illa Billah
		
00:55:05 --> 00:55:51
			all of these upcard if a person says them, then then he says, Allahumma fiddly. Oh ALLAH forgive me,
or he makes a DA, right he asks a las pangallo for something. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said was the Jeeva he will be responded, and he, Allah will answer him, and if he makes will
do, and prays that his Salah will be accepted. So even in the night, you know, when you wake up,
then, you know, make Vicar of Allah and especially c'est la holo and our quwata illa Billah. And
then also, after eating, and on wearing clothes in her day, sweeter and dessert, even a Buddha
would, that whoever eats some food, and then he says Alhamdulillah, he led the Adorama and he had a
		
00:55:51 --> 00:56:48
			bomb was accompany him in rady holy mini welaka that all praise to the one who fed me this food and
gave me food gave me sustenance from the or through no mite, or power of mine, or on my part,
meaning this was all by the power of Allah subhanaw taala that if I that I was able to eat this
food, Allahu Akbar, this is by the power of Allah. And, and truly, this is something worth
reflecting over. Because you know, the food that we're eating, sometimes that food, you know, in one
bowl is food in a combination of different foods that have come from so many, you know, different
parts of the world. When you think about the spices, where did they come from? Which part of Africa
		
00:56:49 --> 00:57:35
			or which part of India, right? Think about the oil? Which part of South America did that come from?
Think about the vegetables? Right? Which part of the world did they come from? Think about the
lentils, think about the meat. Honey, where where did that come from? So did you have the power of
your own? To bring all of that food to yourself? No. Did you have the strength to, you know, put all
of that together? No, if you were able to purchase it. And if you were able to, you know, prepare it
and if you were able to put it in your dish, this was by the ability that Allah subhanaw taala put
in you when Allah subhanaw taala enabled you.
		
00:57:36 --> 00:58:24
			And then the fact that you're able to eat the food, any the fact that you're able to lift up the
food to your mouth. He said panela any of a person's hand is hurt, they're not able to feed
themselves. If a person does not have the strength to walk up to the, you know, to their kitchen,
and open the refrigerator and take the food out and heat it up. How can they eat it? You need the
strength that you have to even feed yourself that strength you have because of Allah soprano dog,
and then the strength, the ability to chew, to chew the food, the ability to swallow the food, the
ability to digest the food, any all of that is a gift, a blessing from Allah. So whoever says this,
		
00:58:24 --> 00:58:47
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said Littlefield Allah will matter at the moment zombie will
matter. Aha, all his sins will be forgiven. So panela every time you eat, you have an opportunity to
earn forgiveness. When you say this, Dora Alhamdulillah Hilary Armani had a bomb was a con II mean
lady holy mini Wanaka
		
00:58:48 --> 00:59:14
			and then also a similar girl. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Whoever wears a garment,
or whoever puts on some clothes, and says Alhamdulillah Hilary cassani had a Thurber, what are the
Kony human lady holy mini Wanaka that all praise to Allah, Who clothed me with this cloth and
provided me from, you know, through
		
00:59:15 --> 00:59:59
			through no might or power on my part. And the same thing with our clothes. Any Where did that cotton
come from? Where did that silk come from? Which part of you know, China or Africa or, you know,
Australia? Or what part of the world? And where was that harvested? And where was the yarn produced?
And then where was the material produced? And where was it stitched? And how did it reach your
continent? And how did it reach your country and know your city and the story that you got it from,
and then the ability to purchase it the ability to find something that fits you? Well, you know,
find something that is comfortable on your body that looks good on you. And the fact that you're
		
00:59:59 --> 01:00:00
			able to change
		
01:00:00 --> 01:00:44
			You're close yourself any Oh? How did you have that power? How did you have that ability? How did
you have that might? Is this your own? No, this is because of the COA that Allah subhanaw taala gave
you and the risk that he brought to you. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said Whoever
says this on wearing clothes, then again love your Allah who matter condominium be that all of his
sins will be forgiven the last panel tada forgive us also, very quickly, I would like to go over the
next name and then inshallah we will conclude. And the next name is Alma teen, it's very similar to
unquie and Mateen, the one who is firm, and this name of allah occurs once in the Quran, where Allah
		
01:00:44 --> 01:01:08
			subhanaw taala says, and sort of that yet I have 58 in Allah who are was zirkel, the rucola Timothy,
that Indeed Allah is the continual provider, the firm possessor of strength. Now, an Mateen is the
is the one who has mutton and mutton is, is explained as a, you know, the heart or the outer part of
something.
		
01:01:09 --> 01:01:55
			And it's also used for the back of an animal, or it's also used for ropes that hold attempt. So
you're thinking about, you know, a solid structure or, or something, you know, like the spine, or
the ropes, you know, that, that hold something together, right, and the ropes have to be really
strong, the back of an animal, you know, it's, it's got to be really firm and strong. So you're
talking about the strongest part of something, which is why the word mutton is also used for the
middle of a boat, because that's where you, you know, where you're holding it from, and it has to be
really firm, because if it's not strong, if it snaps, then that boy is useless.
		
01:01:56 --> 01:02:55
			So Mateen is something that is firm in its strength, and he not just powerful, but the power is is
very firm, it is very stable. And Mateen is also someone who possesses you know, their whatever
quality they have to to an utmost degree, right or the strongest degree. So Mateen is what is
firming strength and possesses any quality to the strongest degree. So when Allah subhanaw taala is
El Mateen. What does that mean? El Mateen is the one who is intense, who is shrouded in his power.
And what was that he said? That matana shows that Allah subhanaw taala does what is shaded and it is
very intense, it is very strong, it is very mighty, it is unconquerable, any no one can conquer it,
		
01:02:55 --> 01:03:46
			no one can defeat it, no one can weaken it. And when Allah subhanaw taala is an Mateen that's all
also shows us that Allah subhanaw taala his power is such that it does not end it does not become
weak, and it is not affected by fatigue. Nor is it that something becomes too burdensome. Allah
kebab and we learn in the Quran, how Allah subhanaw taala created the heavens and the earth what am
Uriah because he did not get tired, right by creating them he did not he did not get fatigued in
ayatul kursi while a year old who have Luma guarding preserving the skies in the earth does not tire
him. Alright, so Allah subhanaw taala he is an Mateen and he is the strongest he is the firmest any
		
01:03:46 --> 01:04:45
			no matter how powerful you think Allah is, he is even more powerful than that, his strength, his his
power is stable. So, so the passage of time, and what he does, does not weaken him. And whatever
qualities that Allah subhanaw taala possesses, whether it is the ability to create, or the fact that
he knows everything, the fact that he hears everything, all of his abilities, all of his qualities
are of the strongest degree. And this is why two times in the Quran we learn in total column, I have
45 and in circle aarav I have 183 will only left home in the Kadeem a team that my plot is very
firm. And even when Allah subhanaw taala it makes a plan in order to punish those who are deserving
		
01:04:45 --> 01:04:59
			of that punishment, then that that plan is very firm. So no one can escape it. No one can you know
change it, no one can can avoid it. So when Allah subhanaw taala is an Mateen
		
01:05:00 --> 01:05:53
			means that we should realize that we are weak before Allah. And we, we suffer from weakness because
we are the creation right and when we are, you know experiencing any weakness then we should place
our expectations in Allah subhanaw taala who is ulma team, when we place our expectations in people
who are not, you know firm and stable in their strength, then we get disappointed. You know, what
happens with people is that their strength, it is is temporary, it is not absolute. They suffer from
weakness, from fatigue from decline. And this is why it would be foolish to place our expectations
and people Place your expectations in Allah subhanaw taala and when you are weak, when you are
		
01:05:53 --> 01:06:17
			feeling weak realize that your Lord is an Mateen so don't be afraid because remind yourself that I
am Ogden Mateen or I am Emma Toma teen I am the slave of Elma teen. I am the slave of the one who is
firm and strong who does not become weak and when a lie is ultra thin yet he is so kind
		
01:06:18 --> 01:06:50
			to his slaves, then we should also be kind to the slaves of Allah and not become you know arrogant
by the little power that Allah subhanaw taala has given us the last panel Tata give us the ability
to remember him and and place our trust in Him and expect the best from him. inshallah we will
conclude over here subchronic Allahumma will be handed a shadow Allah ilaha illa Anta astell
