			Bismillah Alhamdulillah wa Salatu was Salam ala Rasulillah he salam ala Holly or Sanlam? How can we
get rid of fearing the unknown, fearing whatever may happen in the future. In my case, for example,
not so long time ago, I was injured badly my lower back. And as a result, I was pinned to a
wheelchair for nearly a year. And during this very painful time, I had this fear in my heart about
what could happen in the future fear of the unknown, fear of not being able to walk again, will I
ever function as I used to or not, and so on and so forth. And as a result of that fear, my faith,
my Eman was affected this type of fear. My Brothers and Sisters in Islam is sufficient to destroy
		
00:00:55 --> 00:01:40
			your happiness, your contentment and worst of all, it is sufficient to destroy your Eman your very
faith, the most valuable thing in the life of a Muslim but this is something that we all need to
reflect on. The wealth that you've accumulated over the years may turn into poverty one day, the
health that Allah subhanaw taala had given you had blessed you with may deteriorate. The peace and
safety that you have experienced in life may cease to exist your loved ones, the people that you
treasure, the most may pass away in front of your very eyes, all of these issues, and so many more,
are major concern for every individual, no doubt about it. But what will make us unique as believers
		
00:01:40 --> 00:02:26
			is dealing with these situations properly, according to the instruction given by Allah subhanaw
taala and His Prophet when these situations arise. So how can we deal with such a fear? The fear of
the unknown simply by making a decision today without any further delay, that you're going to be
content and happy satisfied with whatever Allah subhanaw taala had destined upon us, no matter how
difficult the challenge may seem to you always raise your hands to Allah subhanaw taala and
supplicate along in the A slim tuna FC like oh Allah I have submitted my whole self my whole being
to you. That's the meaning of Islam. My brothers and sisters forum Vinny Bacala, ICA a and can so
		
00:02:26 --> 00:03:11
			make me happy and satisfied with your color with your destiny, whatever it may be, want to be a
robot army and be kind and gentle to me. In all situations. When you do that my brothers and sisters
in Islam the unknown that you used to feel in the past becomes known to you obvious and very clear.
How is that possible because you have made a decision to accept the destiny of Allah subhanaw taala
not only that, but to be happy and satisfied with it. And that's the very meaning of being a Muslim.
A Muslim is the one who submits to Allah subhanaw taala willingly, humbly without objection, without
having anything in his heart to complain about Allah's color about Allah's instructions and
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:58
			commands. That's the very meaning of our faith of Islam. So now you are facing these trials with the
mindset of it's good for me. That's why the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, other
than the unreal moment, how amazing the affair of a believer is, when he struck with trials, he's
patient and it is good for him and when good touches him when Allah subhanaw taala bless him with
something good and great, he is grateful, he's thankful and it is also good for him. So the core of
the matter my brothers and sisters in Islam is you and your attitude when you face either good news,
or what may seem to you as evil or bad because the color of Allah subhanaw taala is always good, it
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:44
			is us that we perceive it differently sometimes and so if you demonstrate the right attitude, then
Allah subhanaw taala will ease your way during these trying moments. Allah subhanaw taala said in
the Quran ma Saba MIMO see button. It'll be in there on a human biller. Yeah, the Kolber will Lahu
be cliche gnarly, but whatever trials tribulations and challenges that we face in life, it is by the
will of Allah subhanaw taala but whosoever believed in Allah, Allah will guide his heart allow and
make his heart content with these trials and tribulations. Allah Who equally shy in Alim and Allah
subhanaw taala had knowledge over all things, so he know what he's doing and most certainly he had
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:59
			written this upon you for your own benefits. So when you accept the decisions and the other of Allah
subhanaw taala upon you with a happy and satisfied heart, a loss of 100 Allah will ease your affair,
Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:43
			I will strengthen you to cope with these challenge. That's why the Prophet Muhammad SAW Sam said all
my youth are sambar use of beer hula, whosoever struggles to be patient upon whatever that that
person may experience a loss of behind what Allah will grant him patience. So, have you made a
decision yet? To be content, happy and satisfied in advance with whatever that you may face in life?
May Allah Subhana Allah grant us patience, and may Allah subhanaw taala enable us to cope with all
challenges in life. Amin, Amin, amin, see you tomorrow in sha Allah Salam Alaikum Warahmatullahi
Wabarakatuh
