			So micrometer over cattle brothers and sisters, I wanted to share with you the story of
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:17
			one of the wives of Harun al Rashid. Her name was Zubaydah bent Jaffer. Are they allowed her Anna
was a very righteous woman.
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:36
			Very interesting story. And I thought that inshallah it could be something that you would really
enjoy knowing the way that when Jaffer was a very righteous woman, and as you know how to Rashid
Mashallah was a righteous man and Zubaydah was well known to be a Hashmi
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:40
			and also from the mother was also harsh to me.
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:48
			And she was well known to be a very righteous person from the family of the prophets are seldom
directly related to the family.
		
00:00:50 --> 00:01:16
			It was reported that one debater of the latter Anna went to perform hajj and umrah so when she went
to arafat, she saw the Hajaj. And at that time, she noticed that one of the most difficult things
that the Hajaj were having difficulty with is actually finding water. So what she did was she
actually called her minister and personal gods that everyone and said,
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:43
			find every bit of wealth that I have, and build as many wells as possible until some people even
mentioned that she built a canal, all the way from Makkah, going all the way into arafat supporting
and supplying water to the judge. And she had wells built all along this canal in order to support
the water so that the judge could drink water
		
00:01:44 --> 00:02:28
			as part of the What a great fit my That is right. Can you imagine? So much so was this Padma that
all the judges were thanking her and making love for her and praising her. So when she passed away
people saw as a beta in her in their dreams. And so they were like, what is Allah done with you?
they asked. So she mentioned in the dream and the dream was was said that she said to these people,
Allah has forgiven me. So the people said, Oh, is it because of that? Well, that you dug the canals
and the under the water that you provided for the judge? Is that the reason because obviously that
was the most precious thing that she had done that was well known to people and the most popular
		
00:02:28 --> 00:03:12
			thing she said no, it wasn't because of that it was because of two rockers that I used to pray at
the depths of the night. So Subhanallah you know sometimes all of this work that we're doing, or all
of this hard work that we're doing in Ramadan working for this charity and that charity working for
this project and that working our life towards some serious goal or the other for the Mohammed Salim
it may all be rejected by Lhasa budget, it may be just that to rock as at night is that $10 that you
give to some poor person and he raises his hands, begging Allah to forgive you it might be just a
food you put into some orphans mouth it may be a good deed that you do to your mom, it could be re
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:54
			citation of the Quran that you did at the depths of the night with your with your eyes floor or
overflowing with tears. It could be some miniscule deed that you consider insignificant that could
be the one that is accepted by Allah subhanho wa Taala. So, this is why my brothers and sisters lamb
lamb, para Domino model fish I do not belittle any good at all, especially the good that can only be
done or only those deeds that can only be done in secret, such as depth such as such as praying at
the depths of night. And this is why you know one of the things I really envy about my brothers and
sisters who work with me and mercy mission is I really envy those brothers and sisters who are at
		
00:03:54 --> 00:04:28
			the back end You know, they're in the back end of conferences and the back end of of the limelight.
They're not in the forefront I really envy them well Lucha envy them I envy them because you know no
one knows them. Their names are not are not spoken about. There's no credits that mentioned their
their names and the titles. No one knows that they are, you know the backbone behind which all of
this work happens to support a lot you know what maybe that was what I was going to give them the
idea of all of this work rather than us who take the limelight. So we Allah subhanho wa Taala
		
00:04:30 --> 00:05:00
			Allah forgive us for life Allah forgive us and accept our deeds were ashamed would be for all of
this hard work to not be accepted by law. My brothers and sister Islam keep your intention purely
for the face while azzawajal nothing but if last will do nothing but a class will do nothing but a
class will do and be of those people who strive to do the deeds that are hidden, to not be of the
people that are in front. Try to keep completely hidden from everyone and not hidden from from
Allah.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:03
			subhanho wa Taala sokola here. Until the next time Salaam Alaikum.
