Today we will commence or we will we will resume with another concept. Another aspect of our lifestyle as believers and that is Toba or the concept of repentance. Allah subhanahu autolysin in the Quran.
Alia IBOR the levena US Allahu Allah,

to rock metal.
In nulla, high on federal loan Oba Jeremy in Nauvoo Allah for Rafi
tell them Obama's Arsalan told tell them to tell to those people who said Leila is Allah Muhammad Rasul Allah, I barely My servants, tell my servants Allah subhanaw taala is addressing Mohamed Salah Salem to inform us Subhan Allah, Allah I read the AlLadhina asop who not only nei bad not only all the people that I have created, but specifically those who have gone beyond the limits and committed sins that harm themselves.
That wrong themselves Subhan Allah so Allah is not addressing now all the people in general, but rather a specific group of people who have committed sins that have harmed themselves because when you commit a sin, when you go out of your way to disobey Allah subhanaw taala no one is losing you except yourself. Subhan Allah, so Allah is reminding us the Holy idea. Lavina Assaraf will those who exaggerated in committing sins against me, and in doing so they are harming themselves, not anyone else, tell those people despair, not from the Mercy of Allah Allahu Akbar. Even those people who have done the worst of the worst of the worst of all actions, despair, not from the Mercy of Allah
subhanaw taala Why is that so? Why the people who have indulged in so much sinful activities, why they shouldn't despair?
You know, in Allah subhanaw taala has mercy from Allah subhanaw taala has mercy and forgiveness because Allah subhanaw taala told us in the same way,
in Allah for the rule by Jamia because Allah is the One who wipes out all sins big, major or small it doesn't matter in the lie up through the room with Jamia in Nauvoo, unlawful Rahim. Then Allah reminded us of two of his beautiful qualities. Indeed, He is the Most Forgiving, the Most Merciful. Now, I started with this beautiful hopeful area, in the Quran to draw your attention. And to anyone out there who have done a lot of bad things in the past. And he's asking or she's asking herself, will really Allah subhanaw taala accept me will really Allah subhanaw taala Forgive me what I have done, I have done a lot of bad things will really Allah subhanaw taala accept me in his kingdom in
His mercy and include me in his mercy. The answer is given in that beautiful is definitely yes. So long my brothers and sisters it's down, that you turn around and do something better and start afresh and big Allah subhanaw taala for your forgiveness, so long as you're doing well. And you're not harming anyone, Allah will turn to you in his forgive with his forgiveness and with His mercy. But you have to understand one thing that is very, very important. Allah subhanaw taala also said in the Quran
are you a loving man or to boo Ilan law hito button also ha. All you who believe. Stand up now and pay attention because Allah is talking to you or you who have said
leyline Allah Muhammad Rasul Allah, all believers out there, listen carefully
to boo Illa Allah, repent return to Allah subhanaw taala, a Toba that has no tails to you know of sin sins remaining
in it Delbarton also homies a towel but without returning back to what you have started. Allah is addressing the believers now, and in this ayah my brothers and sisters, it's time we get to know the Toba repentance is obligation is an act of compulsory act upon the believers. It's not an optional act here. It is part of the lifestyle of the believers to woo in Allah. Yeah, y'all. Edina mn Oh ALLAH is addressing the believers. Why will the believers need to repent? Because it is part of our lifestyle. Abu Hurayrah the Allah Allah He said Samantha rasool Allah Azza wa Sonia good I heard the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam saying wala He Allah, the Prophet SAW Selim started this
narration with taking an oath upon himself Wallah he, by Allah subhanaw taala he's swearing by Allah subhanaw taala in Neela Stanfill law what a two wheeler he feel yummy act thorough means surveying model. The process of selling is taking an oath he's swearing by Allah will really the process LM need to swear by a lot to make you believe anything my brothers and sisters Yanni will the processor learn or does the processor need to swear by Allah to convince you he is Assad? Amin already he's the most truthful the trustworthy already that we know of Mohammed Salah sellin, does he need to swear by Allah, but in this narration is taking an oath by Allah subhanaw taala to make you feel the
importance of seeking repentance, of seeking forgiveness from Allah subhanaw taala because it is part of your lifestyle as a believer so we say Wallah you by Allah.
I seek forgiveness from Allah subhanaw taala and I repent to Him EVERY SINGLE DAY lifestyle. It's a lifestyle.
Whether you like it or not, this is what your beloved Prophet SAW Selim, the man whose sins were forgiven already, past and future, he's telling you on law, he this is what I do every day, I seek forgiveness, and I repent to Allah subhanaw taala every day, more than 70 times Allahu Akbar more than 70 times, this is how the prophets Allah, Allah is Allah is telling us in a beautiful narration, swearing by law making an oath by the greatest being Allah subhanaw taala telling us that this is what I do every single day. That's what Allah Subhana Allah says in the Quran, what to boo you know, Elijah, Mian and repent all of you all believers, all of you, are you alone, or you who
believe lung Let come to flee home, so that you may achieve success.
And if you achieve success in that sense, by constant repentance because in Allah, Allah Subhana Allah if you do that in Allah your head with our being, while your head bull Matata hurry, Allah loves those who often repent, constantly repent, and go back to Allah and ask for his forgiveness constantly. Allah loves those people. And if Allah loves you, congratulations. Congratulations. So Subhan Allah Allah, we have heard about repentance. So many times, we have heard of the concept of Toba so many times, but when you hear about the same subject, from the perspective that it is a daily lifestyle that you should bring into your life, so that you can attain success, it's different
now. It is a different matter now. Now we have a different understanding a different perspective of the same concept that we've been hearing about
in almost every lecture in almost every home, how about tilba tilba Repentance, repentance, repentance, so, I hope you have gotten to this point very, very clearly. Now, there is a difference between still far another concept and tilde they are linked they are somehow related, but there is a slight difference inshallah. So the difference between Step Four and tilde is the following is still far is to ask Allah Subhana Allah to forgive you from whatever you have done in the past. So all the mistakes that you have done in the past, you ask Allah Ya Allah forgiven, repentance still, but however, is to make a commitment never to fall back and never to do the same sin again in the
future.
So it's the VaR is related to what you have done in the past. Toba is a commitment a promise about what may happen in the future. It is as if Allah subhanaw taala wanted us to remain
In that constant state of is the FAR and Toba throughout our day throughout our life. Now what are the conditions of your Java to be accepted in sha Allah Allah a refresher for you in the light Allah number one quit immediately so once you realize that you have fallen into haram quit so quit the sin number two regret it in your heart, you regret that you have done something awful against Allah subhanaw taala who is always over watching you. So number one is what with number two is regret number three commit never to do it again in the future.
So Alhamdulillah they are all Yanni in English Tangela the rhyme so that you always remember inshallah quit, regret and commit with the sin immediately as soon as you realize it's wrong and you want it to repent to Allah subhanaw taala one of the conditions of your repentance to be accepted is to leave the sin is to quit immediately. Don't leave things to the sin. So if you are smoking for example, and you wanted to quit smoking, you repent to Allah subhanaw taala by giving up the habit immediately don't say I will smoke few cigarettes every day until the nicotine comes out all these all these tricks are rubbish, it's just trapped from the traps of shaitan. To keep to make you smoke
until you die your life as a biller. May Allah protect the soil, if you are a sister who is about to wear hijab, and she's reflecting and she's thinking and she's still making up our mind. No, no, no, with all the bad habits, get the scarves, get your your, your Abba, your clothing and dress up modestly, as soon as you leave your home by the Sisters in Islam, and so on and so forth. So quit the sin immediately. Number two regret. Don't be proud of your sins that you have committed in the past that's not sincere. That's not a sincere repentance. If you're still attached to the sin that you committed in the past, and you're proudly talking about it, so how are we wish to go back and
hang out with those God? No, that's not that it means that you repentance is not sincere. So you have to always regret what you have done in the past hated to hate it in your heart. And number three, our commitment with Allah to commit never to do that again in the future. Even if you earn again, compulsively even if you're falling, because we are human beings, we are sure coulomb Allahu Akbar, the Prophet SAW Samson, all the children of Adam are sinners, we are bound to commit sins, while hydro Hapa in a terrible but the Best of those who earn the Best of those who fall into sins are those who often repent, Allahu Akbar.
So great, ah, regret and commit never to do that again in the future. The fourth condition of your your your repentance to be accepted, is when you have done wrong to others. So if you have harmed other people, one of the conditions for your sins to be for your sins to be wiped out and forgiven is to go and make it a rite with those people. So to seek their forgiveness before anything else if they are alive. Alhamdulillah if you think that you have to also you know,
consult yourself your heart, your your wisdom, whether if you confess that seems to them whether it's going to add more drama to your relationships or not. So you have to evaluate the situation. Alright, but if if you can go and talk to them and make the right with them, that will be the best option. If they are not around for any reason they died the day of travel, they left the area and you can't reach to them, then a charitable activity on their behalf will suffice. Insha Allah may Allah subhana wa Taala grant us repentance before our death and acceptance of our actions and deeds. I mean your brownie, just Aquila.
