Peace be with you. As we are reaching
the 3rd day of Ramadan, we are talking
about this very notion which is essential to
our understanding of our faith
to repair, to reform our self, our heart,
our life.
He will understand that
the central notion,
which is connected to the notion of repair,
is the notion of
is remembrance,
and this is the very essence of the
Quran. In
we have revealed
the remembrance, which is one of the names
of the Quran.
Meaning what? That we only have to remember
that god is with us, that Allah is
here, that God is around us. It's,
between ourselves and our heart, and it is
is the creator of,
the heavens and the earth. It's not only
about this.
It's very much about coming back to our
heart and understanding that this life has a
meaning. As we said
in the
point here
that we belong to God and to him
we are returning.
The point here is that what we have
in Surat Kahf, it's very much the essence
of everything.
We you were heedless of it, of it
meaning what? The death, your own death.
We unveiled for you its truth,
which is the very truth of life is
that you are going to die.
And we
understand that after your death, you will
know the truth of your life. You will
know the truth of,
God,
but
what you have to understand what you have
to understand, what you are reading this about
your death is that during your life, you
have to remember.
You have to avoid this,
being heedless
and come to this consciousness of the very
meaning of life. This consciousness
here,
it's this remembrance,
is to help you not only
to get
you the way that you are following,
is to understand that
during this life,
on your way towards your death, meaning towards
your heart, meaning towards god,
everything
has a meaning.
And the meaning
it's to come back to god, to return
to the very essence of life.
It means that your weaknesses,
your,
failure,
you the test that you are facing, everything
which is happening,
it's in fact a way to remember
the very meaning of your mind. And it
means that when you fast,
it's not only that you are you have
your stomach empty.
You have to change the way you look
at things, the way you look at life,
the way you look at yourself, and the
way you are following the path, but changing
and transforming in your life,
everything,
in order to understand that these are signs
asking
you
come back to the essence,
come back to the meaning,
come back to god, come back to yourself,
and repair what should be repaired in your
life. And as we are feast fasting, this
is exactly what we are trying to do.
We fast to repair
and to repair to come close
and to come close to get the very
truth of life
that at the end of the day, we
go back to him.
Don't forget to tell the people you love
that you love them. Life is fragile.
