funny me if that was what I said

00:03:23--> 00:03:28

somebody sent us was shuffling off the head or put them on the table

00:03:32--> 00:03:35

this week we continue our series on suicide assault

00:03:37--> 00:03:45

alone right rasool Allah says Allah Subhana Allah the sob and he laid up in a machine in the hobby machine on Sunday he went off

00:03:46--> 00:03:47

with an

00:03:48--> 00:03:50

integral for some he was singing

00:03:51--> 00:04:14

Glory needs to no one who saw his servants Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam by made from the sacred message leading to the furthest message, whose surroundings we have blessed so that we may show himself of our science shortly. Key of all is the hearing the scene.

00:04:16--> 00:04:26

This verse is referring to the highest version of the song and the ascension of now all of our processes have this was

00:04:27--> 00:04:33

one of the most miraculous events to occur during the province mission

00:04:35--> 00:04:46

and the Central Valley or the alarm around for better rates and at least electrify the quality and the sight. Some of the details of this nightmare.

00:04:47--> 00:04:51

He describes the state of the prophets of Allah morning with some of the

00:04:52--> 00:04:57

women to greet I approached him that night saying what's an MRI? What

00:04:59--> 00:05:00

What can that even be?

00:05:00--> 00:05:02

And then we'll add a little while after that.

00:05:04--> 00:05:08

And his eyes are sleeping, talking about the proper flow,

00:05:09--> 00:05:17

but not his heart. All profits are like that their eyes asleep, but their hearts do not.

00:05:18--> 00:05:49

And this is trying to teach us something important about our theology, what we believe in that there are fundamental differences between the prophets, and the rest of humanity. One of these differences is the level of our awareness. While we are asleep, the prophets are more aware of that normal people while they sleep. And this has consequences

00:05:50--> 00:06:03

for the truthfulness of what they see when they sleep for their dreams. In a slab, we take our dreams seriously. Dreams are parts of the unseen world, and the labor.

00:06:05--> 00:06:24

And belief in an unseen world is the first characteristic that Allah subhanaw taala uses to describe the people who are pious, and the entire planet. And if not mean, that we can talk about like a few who does a good job cleaning up gonna be the one you

00:06:26--> 00:06:35

need, that is the boss of Foreman and wish there is no death goddess for the pious, those who believe in the unseen.

00:06:36--> 00:07:15

So as a nation that believes in the unseen realm, we also believe that dreams are more than just the results of chemical interaction, or material processing, or whatever you happen to eat for dinner. We believe that saints have meaning and power. This is especially true for the prophets. As nslm is here, the hearts of the prophets do not sleep. And so their dreams cannot be misled. All of their dreams are true revelation, I fell in progress.

00:07:16--> 00:07:28

And some say that this is actually a Hadith of the Prophet as well. So I love it for Southern rock lnbf watching what's in the offing in a graph of accountable

00:07:29--> 00:07:53

for the accuracy of the dreams or profits or relation. And then he recited dispersion before n which is a conversation between the broad team and his family. And surely I see myself and my friends sacrificing you. So tell me what you think. This man replies, oh, my father, do what you have been commanded.

00:07:54--> 00:08:10

This is not ideal. I mean, Savannah, understood that the dreams of his father Ibrahim alayhis salam were coming commands from a law not simply suggestions, not random parts of his imagination.

00:08:11--> 00:09:05

As for the rest of humanity, including you and I, when our eyes asleep, so to do our hearts. Consequently, our dreams are not struggling nation, and not necessarily true. This realisation should correct some common misunderstandings that exist in every Muslim community. I've talked to many people who after seeing a dream have absolutely 100% confidence that is from a loss of confidence. And that is meant to be taken as a divine order. Not so fast. The prophets of Allah funny person have told us that our dreams come in three types are limited to a logo or some of them in the book. So that means we will miss shape on Liang some of you have

00:09:06--> 00:09:44

or may have a robot that was looking younger, the younger only be younger than me. They are all female anatomy worming hydrocyclone exhibitor to our Verena Mina Naboo row, our manager, the provenance of a loved one, even if someone says Surely there are three types of dreams. One claim is from the devil sent to sound and people. Another type is a reflection of the things a person does while they are awake. And the last type is one of the 46 portions of prophethood.

00:09:45--> 00:09:59

That might sound very strange. So to explain what the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam meant about this last type of dreams, we cross reference it with another tiny consecutive according to the prophecy Lombardi was so upset. Let me come back to

00:10:00--> 00:11:00

And the bow give them a shot or the woman question on them so Allah on the lookout soya, nothing will remain a prophet foot after the except for glad tidings, good news. The people around him they asked him, What is this good news? And he replied, righteous dreams. So we see that for us interpreting dreams as a lot less clear. Some dreams are just a mashup of the things we experienced in our waking lives. Other dreams are from the devil himself, hoping to scare us, or grief us or even incite us toward committing evil. And the last type of dreams are those dreams that are from Allah subhanho wa taala, which the prophets of Allah Almighty, as was pointed out, are voracious

00:11:00--> 00:11:34

streams, true journeys, we need to be careful not to be too hasty in deciding which type of dream that is that we are experiencing. In a famous story, the following up a popular DM, he had a vision. Some say he had a dream, where a mysterious cloud appeared to him. Software, boom, lightning flash, as a voice came out from behind the firewall. I am the LORD law, so maybe,

00:11:35--> 00:11:36

I will call it

00:11:38--> 00:11:59

law. What is it my work? And so the wisdom behind lentil answer, you have reached such lofty heights of piety and righteousness, that the city no longer applies to you. You are no longer required spray and what was wrong for you is now

00:12:01--> 00:12:11

on the Father's Day that he shouted at the cloud, you are not my word. You are in the public with the devil and I seek refuge from you and Allah.

00:12:12--> 00:12:29

As soon as he said this, the clouds started to disintegrates and the thunder and lightning stops. The devil then spoke before I came to you, I led astray over 70 Other scholars for the district. How did you know what was speak?

00:12:30--> 00:12:39

I will call it require very simple, Allah Subhana Allah Allah will never command anyone to abandon the city out.

00:12:40--> 00:12:57

Whether this story is historically accurate or not, the lesson is completely correct. Our dreams cannot override or replace our theology, meaning our theta or our love our city on

00:12:58--> 00:13:48

getting back to the nature and the other saw to realize across the province of a loved one a person of interest this states where he his eyes were asleep, but his heart was not asleep and didn't realize he woke up the province of Oman body from a southern fully and a Saturday Gibreel then open the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam his chest and washed his hearts in terms of water just as he had done when Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa salam was a young boy. Next, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam mountain awaits screenshotting Bullock each stride more often took extended all the way into the horizon. And so very quickly, they traveled with to really submission of sauce and

00:13:48--> 00:14:05

inputs. The prophets of Allah were able to select tied to a close outside the mosquito Ipsum and then went inside where to let the profits in to rock the house of prayer. After they left with MSG, Jimmy and I

00:14:06--> 00:14:10

presented the Prophet alayhi salam with two cups.

00:14:11--> 00:14:14

In one of the cups, why?

00:14:15--> 00:14:59

The other lemon or milk? The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam chose the one with milk and Gibreel ambience praised him, saying this is a natural choice. And from there, the prophet that Gibreel ascended through the heavens. When they reached the threshold of the first time that they were stopped at the Gates, who was there, a voice called out from behind the gates Gibreel The angel answered, and who was with you? The voice asked Mohammed set the breeder, and the voices behind the need sorts of murmuring excitedly as he finally mid sentence has the time finally come

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

All

00:15:01--> 00:15:05

right, welcome, welcome. They call outs and they open the gates

00:15:06--> 00:15:38

and describing this, take some moments to comments. He points out that the angels were unaware of what exactly was going on, and why we're having to have a look at what was being brought to Heaven's Gate. This has significance because many people throughout the history of our home have have exaggerated the status of the angels, even to the point of worshipping them, or asking the angels to help.

00:15:39--> 00:15:51

And as teaches us that the knowledge of the angels is limited, and so maybe not reserved for worship, or an operation that belongs exclusively to Allah subhanaw taala.

00:15:52--> 00:16:11

This process of being stopped at the game happened and each of the seven levels of heaven and within each heaven Acropolis have a long running encounter. There's amazing things who will probably have I was talking about at the local one, he certainly was singing them equally that this country will be number one before rocking.

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

company that

00:16:24--> 00:16:25

was shopping

00:16:26--> 00:16:27

in a Washington

00:16:30--> 00:16:41

County in and wash our hands on the DNR for things and kind of talk to who also was wondering, some of them are a little savvy on their findings, or certainly we've seen them to heal.

00:16:43--> 00:17:02

When they had served the first level of heaven, they found out it or they can sit down the profit or loss of a loved one or even someone and out of exchange greetings and Adam praise the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam saying what I listen to the sentence of mine, and this is

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

that the parts of an atom prayed for the prophets.

00:17:09--> 00:17:16

They continue on until they pass by a group of people with long fingernails made of brass.

00:17:17--> 00:17:31

And they were using their fingernails to color the flesh of their cheeks and the flesh of their bodies. The prophets of Allah by April 7, I was disgusted by this image. And he asked the degree of Who are these people?

00:17:32--> 00:17:35

To bring an answer. They are the people who used to gossip.

00:17:36--> 00:17:41

The people who used to hurt the reputation from other people while they were on earth.

00:17:43--> 00:18:02

Then they ascended to the second heaven where they come Yes, yeah. And ERISA, and then yes, then they went to the third heaven where they found us that the fourth heaven where the company agrees, they come home on on the fifth level and rules are in the sixth level and finally the Rocky Mountains.

00:18:03--> 00:18:12

On the last the second level, every time the Prophet Mohammed of Allah was set up was greeted by the other prophets, and they pray for him.

00:18:13--> 00:18:30

In the seventh heaven, the prophets of Allah one equals to the pacified amazing house of worship, where every day 70,000 Angels have entered into worship Allah has placed a call based on the Bible, which all swears by the beginning of sort of dwarf.

00:18:31--> 00:18:36

At the very end of the seventh heaven is a tree whose leaves aren't as big

00:18:37--> 00:18:55

elephants. Beyond this point, no creature is allowed to pass. And that's our most limited creation. Allah subhanaw taala spoke directly to the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam just as he had done to Musa report it is

00:18:57--> 00:19:01

it is much sooner than later ask the prophets of Allah money.

00:19:02--> 00:19:03

Did you see Allah?

00:19:04--> 00:19:10

I saw lights was the prophets only response, some of them already it was

00:19:11--> 00:19:59

at the pinnacle of creation. After honoring the prophets of Allah Bernays was someone with miraculous transportation, leaving the prophets in prayer, and reaching the greeting that he received from everyone at every level of heaven. What was the point of it all? Why does Allah subhanho wa Taala bring him all this way? For all the Prophet knew from Allah it was, it could have been many things. It could have been to warn us about Johanna about the Hellfire it could have been to give us at can to give us laws that were going to help protect human life or achieve the quality here on earth but know Allah subhanho wa Taala

00:20:00--> 00:20:05

chose to use such a magnificent sights to reveal a solid

00:20:06--> 00:20:08

to give us a prayer.

00:20:09--> 00:20:15

This smacks tells us something that reports about the loss of power

00:20:16--> 00:20:32

and about the proper relationship that almost powerless Allah expects us to have with him. It demonstrates something the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told us about Allah, that his mercy outstrips His wrath.

00:20:33--> 00:20:42

He summed them up all alone somehow kept burning the Khobar city ignore it several times. I've been on both articles.

00:20:43--> 00:20:52

When Allah Destiny the universe, he decreed about the throne and he said, Surely my Percy outstrips my wrath.

00:20:54--> 00:21:06

We see this reflected in this immense blessing that Allah subhanho wa Taala gave us that night, Allah Tala did not call the prophets of Allah Hooray or sometimes at the end of creation to threaten him,

00:21:07--> 00:21:14

or to present the believers or to pronounce judgments upon them. Instead, he gave us forgiveness.

00:21:15--> 00:21:35

He gave us the most powerful tool to develop our own righteousness, He gave us the most powerful roles to hold on to in times of hardship. He gave us the most powerful tool after the shahada to obtain eternal salvation, of Salah.

00:21:37--> 00:21:39

After developing righteousness.

00:21:41--> 00:21:42

In this level,

00:21:44--> 00:22:14

you will come and establish prayer for surely ritual prayer prevents indecency and wickedness, ask for a rope to hold on to in times of hardship a lot of understand that was never even with somebody was solo, and seek refuge and patience and the prayer of sort of attaining salvation almost wonder the other side of the happy moment, good energy and we have people from

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

and those who carefully maintain their prayers, they will be gardens on

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

the central pillar of our lives. The thing we keep turning back to again and again a solemn prayer. Can you imagine how empty our lives would be? Without this? Pillows now, the prayer you could find out easily you can ask our women whom many of them how to take a break from training once a month. Many of them are not happy to take that break. If they have not told you already made a claim about this. They feel disoriented during that time they feel on board from their connection and relationship with Allah subhanaw taala.

00:23:07--> 00:23:10

At first Allah Allah told the prophets of Allah who it was

00:23:11--> 00:23:16

that he and the rest of the Muslims must pray 50 times every day.

00:23:18--> 00:23:23

But on the way back down to the heavens, Musa means to them were out for perhaps a lot of money

00:23:25--> 00:23:27

and asked him what happened.

00:23:28--> 00:23:43

When he learned that that's the OMA of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam, what happened to 50 times every day, he told them to go back home. He told them your people will never be able to do is go back and ask for less.

00:23:44--> 00:24:12

What happened to the law? Why your son or daughter to realize it to ask his opinion as a real cause? I think he wants you to go back. So they did, every time lightens the obligation upon Amazon's balsa wood cash, what happens on the lower end, you're suddenly on your way down and tell them to go back up again and ask for less. Back and forth. They wait until there were only five prayers required of us.

00:24:13--> 00:24:22

On the way down this last time. Again. This is a long wedding was similar and told to go back and ask for this and people can't do it.

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

But the problem was a little off.

00:24:26--> 00:24:32

At that point. He says I'm too shy to ask so last time it was less than that.

00:24:34--> 00:24:36

By giving us this amazing gift,

00:24:37--> 00:24:46

five prayers every day. Allah subhanho wa Taala is telling us that if we wants to have strong faith

00:24:48--> 00:25:00

if we want to have a strong relationship with Allah Allah, we have to set aside five times every day to communicate with Allah azza wa jal today

00:25:00--> 00:25:06

I came to contemplate our mistakes and ask forgiveness.

00:25:07--> 00:25:34

What sorts of relationship wouldn't be possible? If there were not regular communication? What would you say to someone who introduced you to their best friend, and after telling you how much they owe this friend of theirs, you come to find out, they only speak to each other once a year, or twice a year, you would think such a person was even crazy or alive.

00:25:35--> 00:25:50

It takes regular frequent communication to build any relationship. Someone who says they love the relationship, but isn't willing to put in the time to that relationship. They're fooling themselves.

00:25:51--> 00:26:01

Even though it's not enough that our communication with Allah subhanho wa Taala be irregular or being frequent, it also has to be meaningful.

00:26:02--> 00:26:19

Imagine two spouses, a husband and a wife. And they've agreed that they will set down five times a day, they will sit together and talk. But when they come to the table to sit down and talk to one of them was scrolling through their phone,

00:26:20--> 00:26:25

or looking around and everything else, or simply zoning out

00:26:27--> 00:26:32

is a relationship possible. Under some circumstances, no.

00:26:34--> 00:27:33

And regretfully, we live in a time where many people have lost sight that the main purpose of a Salah is this sacred communication. Without grazers. We are drowning in manuals and books that describe the ropes, mechanics of a slab where we place our hands, the position in which our bodies should be held, etc. And we are starving for material design to help us not get distracted and our prayer material to help us not zoned out during our prayer material to help us focus and communicate and have a meaningful prayer that will actually keep us away from the indecency like Allah subhanaw taala prompts, yes, those mechanical parts of the prayer they are important, but their importance is

00:27:33--> 00:27:59

subordinate and secondaries and the importance of feeling reverence for all in your prayer. feeling gratitude towards Allah, in your prayer, feeling humility and submission to Allah subhanho wa taala. And we know this is true, because a lot out of the race of the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to give him the gift of prayer. And during that time,

00:28:01--> 00:28:08

Allah subhanaw taala did not inform us the technical aspects of how to perform the prayer.

00:28:10--> 00:28:50

The prayer was given in such a miraculous circumstance as to be encouraged rather this reverence, this gratitude, humility, and this submission, we may drive the point home with a quick story. In this story, two men are investigated. They have just finished completing the Salah and vigor and the first man gets up to eat. The second man grabs you by the hand and asks him to save for just a minute he's trying his best to be warm and friendly. The second amount of use of sweet words he sweaters from Allah that He loves his brother in faith.

00:28:52--> 00:29:09

So he tells the first man that he notices some things about his career that he wants to correct. He starts listing them in meticulous detail and eventually stops when he reaches 10 Things total about the first man sprayer that he thinks that he should fix.

00:29:11--> 00:29:16

The first standard applies very good, thank you very much. And what about you?

00:29:18--> 00:29:19

May I point out something about

00:29:21--> 00:29:32

the second man agree. The first man says I think the greatest mistake you made was that when you were standing up for a lot of thought and prayer, your hearts was somewhere else entirely.

00:29:34--> 00:29:41

Your part was not in a state of devotion. What was preoccupied with how the man standing next to you was spraying

00:29:42--> 00:29:54

you monitoring this every move and follow over what the scholars had to say about and then waited for the prayer to be over. So you could tell him about all the mistakes and to make.

00:29:56--> 00:29:59

The second man couldn't accept this advice. Instead no

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

very irritated that he started to argue. Rather than doing that market, it's the first man said set up and left.

00:30:08--> 00:30:14

May Allah subhanaw taala make us of those who are truly devoted to Allah

00:30:15--> 00:30:31

and make us some of those who are distracted from this world by our devotion to Allah Subhana Allah and not of those who are distracted from our devotion to Allah by this world for me somebody was telling me
