although the
Posada has facilitated for us to be together once again,
and to continue to read and benefit the other, from the
timeless principles, gleaned from the words of one of the great
farlam and odia and rivers of this ummah, of this tradition. Then you
see the marketing and the color of July Gilani, Radi Allahu Allahu
Allah
Kitab and Musa with fat burning on Pharaoh Rukmani sublime revelation
and the divine merciful outpourings
so we have reached the 48th
discourse.
So we're going to read from the top

when you see any lady
so it says prophesy sentiment report I've said
if someone dresses up to please other people, their assessment is
a yen. So it doesn't mean necessarily as in clothing, but
adorns, let's say adores oneself to please other people, but
behaves offensively towards Allah.
When he meets the last one I thought it will be to find that he
has incurred His wrath. Here the words of prophecy are hypocrites,
Oh you who trade the hereafter for this world. While you who trade
the lord of truth for creatures, oh you trade when is lasting for
that which must pass away.
Your trading results in loss and your capital goods will disappear.
And last for you you are incurring the wrath of Allah subhanaw taala
and his displeasure because when someone puts on an empty show for
the sake of people, Allah subhanaw taala is not pleased with him or
he says you're disgusted with him. You must adorn your outer your
lover with the good matters of the chakra, the sacred law and your
inner the bottom by expelling creatures from it. You must shut
them out and let them cease to exist as far as your heart is
concerned, as if they had never been created. Do not regard them
as having any power to cause harm or benefit. You have been
preoccupied with the adornment of the outer form the call a little
bit
and I was connected with the adornment of the heart and they
meet on
the way to adorn the heart is through the affirmation of unity
until heat, sincerity of loss and trust in Allah subhanaw taala and
through remembrance, the care of him, and forgetfulness of
everything other than Him. Jesus is reported obviously having said
a righteous deed is one that is done without wishing to be praised
for it.
But I'm gonna solve it already. There you go, and you're manually
typing.
So we've seen this.
We've seen this theme before from the chef
namely that
if
knowledge of God is within reach, and the thing that keeps us
perhaps held back into
We from it is our longing and are hanging our hopes and dreams and
validation and approval on HUD on what people think and what people
say. And the problem with that is people can only see the law here,
they can only see the outer. And since we're aware that people can
only see that, then people tend to spend more time, more mental
energy, more spiritual energy, on adorning, as he said, to Xen, a
fire on adorning the outside. If we felt that people can see our
inside, then we will probably be spending much time or
unfortunately, not unfortunately. But it would be likely we would
spend more time and sincerity and if lost, you know, can you imagine
if people could see your thoughts and could see what's in your heart
can see what you're thinking,
you know, we might actually quarantine ourselves, we won't I
mean anybody because that will be too much of a burden to bear. But
be that is made out of Allah's mercy, and his sin.
And his consuming of our faults. These things are not apparent to
people, at least not to most people. And as a result, we tend
to focus on on the outer part. Now, of course, we say that avoid
or unwind and bothin. And we've heard that phrase before, the the
outer is a kind of an address, or for shadow,
or a teller, let's say of that which is in the button. So if
someone is illumined, spiritually from the inside the button that
tends to show on the outside and and it's not something that
will be necessarily picked up by all, but it will be picked up and
noticed by people who are have a little bit of that knew of
themselves. For you know, how could the courage be so blind to
the nature of the prophets? I send them even his own family members
will have his own uncle and others like Abuja island for a long time
ago, Sophia, how could they be blind to that we can read you
can't imagine that how can they not see that. But if if you're
inside your body in your spiritual center, as he says, The innermost
being and your roar has, is devoid of that type of at least basic
Tawheed, right, affirming the unity of Allah subhanaw taala,
then you will actually tend to see people in the worst light, because
it's a reflection of what's actually going on inside you. And
we discussed this concept before, and movement home your outward
movement, the believer is the mirror image of the believer. So
if you see them as conniving and as jealous, and envious and as
to play chess and all these sorts of things, then chances are you
have a little bit of that in yourself also. And so that's why
you're, you're quick to accuse, You're quick to judge, you are
quick to condemn and we should have hoarseness, we should have a
good opinion. And even if Allah subhanaw taala
does allow you to see or what you perceive to see the inner
disposition of somebody. And he does allow that for some of his
servants some of his grateful servants
that is done so that you may be in a position to affect and be a tool
of Allah's work. And Allah subhanaw taala looks at such
people, not with the judgmental eye, but with the eye of Brahma
with the eye of mercy. And so we too should look at people in that
way. The Rama will be awful, right with with pardoning them, and
being merciful, even though they may be in that situation that you
think they are, even though they may have issues with their Eman or
singing or things like that, but we're not negating that. But that
doesn't mean that we take him out an opportunity to judge them
rather we shouldn't have compassion for them and try to
help them and in which way we can out of that situation. In one of
my favorite bar that is narrow about say Debian will say you who
is often referred to as say the tibia in so he was from the
generation right after the Prophet Muhammad SAW us after the
companions and other lOn. And he was asked for a fatwa about
someone who a public drunkard. Someone was found drunk in the
streets
intoxicated and liberated walking around.
public nuisance. Should we turn him into the police? Should we
report him to death
always expose him, make sure he gets his punishment. And he said,
No, he said we should
cover him concealed him, conceal his mistake, store, right, don't
expose him. Such a person has made a mistake. And so their mistakes
should be concealed, but to be publicly humiliated. And so
before we can conceal people's mistakes, outwardly, we should
conceal them inwardly and the concealment of inwardly, is to
still maintain a good opinion of them and maintaining good opinion
of them doesn't mean that you're ignoring the things that they did
wrong and negating those things, but you are still looking at their
essence and their essence of humanity. So you may despise and
dislike that which is Sharia, despise and dislikes, and you
would not be a proper believer if you didn't do that. Right. We're
not saying condone people's actions condone people's
wrongdoing, but do not let the wrongdoing define them for all of
eternity, in the sense that once a FIFA was a thief,
once a racist always a racist, once
an adulterer owes an adulterer, that's not actually how the Sharia
looks at it. There are paths of redemption. And sometimes these
paths of redemption can be public and outward. So in the case of
people who, who've had
type of criminal had punishments apply to them. It's considered by
many of the automat that that's an explanation for what they've done.
And now they're supposed to move on and people aren't supposed to
look like them like that anymore. Or sometimes and or it could be
also an explanation of the inward. So if they've made the Toba
then that Toba then that repentance is supposed to clear
the slate as it were, and even the prophesy said to my eyes, one
person he had to apply the punishment for adultery to and
someone you know, said he's a corset and Malarone, he said,
Don't say that about him. If his Stober, his repentance was
distributed to all of the people of Medina and I was there at home,
it would have been enough for all of them. So despite that, he made
a big on what was a public mistake, and the public record for
it. He said his Toba was true. And so that means he's insha Allah
dweller of paradise, you can gather that from what the prophesy
Sam said about him. So we don't know. Even if we see someone doing
something inwardly, and let's see it happening outwardly. And it
happened two days ago, they can be completely different today, they
could have repented from that they could have moved on already. And
last time, it could have helped them move on already. And you're
still thinking about what they did yesterday. And you know, what, how
what type of punishment that you're thinking about, and what
type of come up with offense they should get and, you know, thinking
they should get their karma and, you know, all that sort of thing.
And those those sentiments, make a prison out of your heart, and they
keep you down and they keep you a prisoner to your own and it's a
type of necessity, it's a type of Shaohua nfcu Right, it is a type
of passion of the appetite of soul right to see misfortune befall
those who you consider to be your adversaries. And sometimes it
takes the form of you may not even know the person but they did
something maybe you used to do or you did at one point. And that
even kind of fuels your ire even more and you want to see them
taken to task on him because it's actually about you despise that
thing within yourself. And then we've seen somebody else
you know, we tend to
tend to want to expunge it as well as we hope it was expunged from us
and so
it's kind of it's intricate and it's hard work we're not saying
it's not to kind of be careful about your thoughts and about your
you know, your whims and your Caprice and what's what's being
fueled by enough signals being fueled by ego and what can
actually be a pure sentiment and what can be something that allows
for that inspires you to do and that's why we always have the
gates that we talked about Quran Lucinda, a Sharia take you through
that first. So we know given Amina haram. So to talk about some
behind the back, even if true, it's not right, and even to talk
about them. And I would say the vast majority of what we consider
to be mere Riba is probably actually Jemima the means to say
something untrue about them. That's not true about them. But we
tend to embellish a little bit so we might have heard part of the
story. And then we,
you know, kind of take it to the other extreme and we add stuff to
it and then adding stuff to it. As the story goes from one person to
the next and becomes embellished. Then you wind up really slandering
the person, which is basically what an amoeba is. And that's much
worse than than just veba just talking
After backbiting, saying something that they would dislike if they
were in your presence with you, right then and there. And so
that's why the sell of many of them, they said, We can count the
number of words we say in a day, the less you say,
the less that you will be held accountable for. The more you say,
then the more you're sad, right, your reckoning might be because
you're going to ask, Well, you said this about this person and
not about that person was actually true. And what were you thinking
when he said that and that's why I'm in Kenya, you may be lucky
what you're getting emphatic beginning. If you truly believe in
Allah and the Last Day, you know, in other words, the last day is
symbolic of the reckoning or indicative of the reckoning. And
he said, I truly believe in that.
As a prophesy, Sam said, failure can carry on only a smart let them
say something good, or let them be silent. And many of the Sufi mache
if they even like the rock and others, they delve into this even
more and they they sought to cut off the path of Riba and the Mima
right from the source. And, you know, they know how enough Ahsoka
Del Sol they would say, you know, if you go up to somebody and you
say, Oh, how's the fool and you know, what's going on with them?
And you know, that there's a kisser, you know, that there's
like a story going on, something happened, and you're just fishing,
right? You're not really interested to say, How is who
land, you know, already what happened, but you're saying, or
you say something like, oh, you know, what happened with, you
know, so and so miskeen that thing you know, when I tell by the get
a, you know, poor person, you know, that within that habitat,
it's not his fault, but you know, and then you open the conversation
up, and then somehow you think you're justified because outwardly
you're pitting them, or there's this file for you're trying to be
compassionate with them, but inwardly there's still this, nessa
Nashua, let's call it, there's Taraba, we don't have enough
words, in English describing any kind of happiness or kind of
egoistic satisfaction, perhaps I would say, with putting others
down because it elevates you. And this is something that the neffs
also desires and will go after, and we'll try to
make it a part of its kind of daily repertoire as much as they
can. So they they point out these pitfalls, for one to be careful,
that's why it's just safer. Either I'm gonna say something good, I
don't want to say anything at all, you know, and we live in a culture
now, especially with the proliferation of social media. And
that has been especially now in this Coronavirus, COVID-19 sort of
lockdown and people that are probably even communicating more
on social media than even than before, which is quite a bit.
So there is this general culture of I need to, you know, state my
opinion and comment about things and, you know, from my commentary
about this event, or that event, or, you know, this particular
conspiracy, or that particular thing, you know, just yesterday,
or the post, I think one of my teachers, he had kind of given a
very academic very scholarly lecture about
the,
the proliferation or the, the Arabic language being the lingua
franca of, of knowledge for a long part of our collective
civilization in history. So, now, it's English, but one can make an
argument that less than 1000 years ago was Arabic, and even Europeans
were learning Arabic, in order to have access to
books that are only available in Arabic, and then they'd be
translated into Latin. So the main book of medicine, in fact, can
only be seen as the canon of Siena at the center
was originally Arabic, obviously,
is as it's called, and translated into Latin. And that was up until
probably the mid 19th century, the main kind of medical book, kind of
the Grey's Anatomy and more of the time, up until modern medicine. So
he gave like a scar lecture about that in Washington thing, but I
kind of watched bits and pieces, and I saw people making comments
on Facebook. And so one guy who wrote something like, I thought it
was quite good. And then in broken Arabic, he's an Arab, but he's
writing in broken Arabic.
But I think the professor kind of he has to be careful that he said
this, and this and I think it's actually this way.
You know, I can't afford any it's actually like this. I'm trying to
fish.
What is that? And
why did he feel that he needs to over his commentary? You can't
even actually write the words properly.
And there's sort of caca. You can. You don't Kevin?
speak three of the words that the teacher actually spoke. But yet
you felt compelled for the whole world to see you make your
commentary or for your comments about that. And if I feel a little
bit irritated because I'm irritated about it,
you know, they say that
setup or some is,
it's, it's protection, some is protection, to be quiet is a
protection for you, because then if you're actually ignorant people
will never know about it because you're quiet. So you don't have to
ask. And there's a popular story that goes for Imam Abu Hanifa, on
the lawn, who they had one of his students, and they were studying
fit. And they were studying about
prayer times. And he was saying that
he was certain Muslim,
Guru bishops, that certain management then becomes blue
Kotori
after the setting of the sun.
And then one of the students that have a honeypot up until that time
was impressed with because he was silent and he looked like he was
absorbing everything. You know, it looks very smart and intelligent.
He said something like, Well,
you know, what, if the sun doesn't set, how do we pretty much
something like that? So
he said, Okay, was
there anything?
Stay silent.
So, choosing silence is also in terms of having a reaction to
things. It's a motive. It's a position, it's a valid position to
say, purposefully, I'm not gonna say anything.
You know, and that was the milk of sweetener Mariam has set up.
Right? She says, There's nothing she could have said that would
have convinced
the venue, surreal of her time after she comes down from the
temple. And she had a baby within probably an hour or something like
that, or minutes.
And she's carrying the baby in her arms. And even the people said to
her and lethargy etc. And FIRREA McKenna, so like anatomically
building Yeah. You brought this how can we explain this? We were
dedicated to the temple. And Zakaria was watching over you. How
did this happen? Your father was not a bad man and your woman was
not a prostitute. Your mother was not a prostitute. Literally.
That's what they said. When I get on multibillion. So before all of
that she said in the event of many Salma phyllanthus Kenley melanoma
in a year, I will not speak to anyone I have made a vow, an oath
of silence to my Lord, so I'm not going to talk to anybody. And then
she came to our people. All she could do is for surety, they
are Charlotte today. She pointed to the baby Jesus in the cradle.
And then the first words out of his mouth was in Abdullah attorney
al Kitab. Raja Eleni Nebia, WA Journeyman volcanium. According to
well, Sony was so that he was security madam to hire will run we
will overwhelm anyone whenever you want to make your own journeys or
bottom. Shafi was Salim Ali and wanted to move to Yamaha to hire.
That's it. What could they say after that? I am this I am a slave
of Allah subhanaw taala. I've been given the book I've been given the
Hikmah he has made me a Prophet. He did not make me
rebellious against my mother. It made me robotic person and peace
upon me the day that I was born and the day that I die in the
daytime resurrected. The UK supplement. Yeah.
So sometimes it's good. In fact, I think, often times, especially
now, when there's a lot of cross talk and talking heads, and
everybody has an opinion about something.
You don't have to have an opinion about everything. And you need
not, even if you do have an opinion about something you need
not share it, it's not necessarily necessary. You have to think,
okay, is this going to be in the category of clear of good? Or
should I choose the other option, which is something? How they will
see it in the resource? And then that's what the promissory sounds
like, isn't either it's good, or clicks on it? Or don't say
anything. So you have to determine that. And then there are some
things help you determine that. Well, is the thing I'm going to
say is it true? Or is it not true? Am I really sure about it? I'm not
so sure about it?
Is it going to have a good effect on the people that who hear it
from me? Or might they take offense or might they be injured
by it somehow? Linda? Can M
Xu FEMA which I see a colossal teammate with a few words have
value and words are deeds to that's also a cardinal principle
words or deeds, and they have an effect on others. So we don't say
was just two words. No, it's not just the words, words have an
effect. This these books we're reading are words the Quran is
words, you want to tell me words don't have an effect.
Words can can change the world.
And this is something
a unique thing to the human condition that we've been given
words and we can express thoughts in words. So it's really an
expression of what could be even your innermost being of your sin.
So you'll see that an apology Lani, as we know, when he came to
these modalities, he didn't have notes, as his students mentioned,
and he didn't have like a notebook in front of them. I was learning
from a book. So this really was practical a biannual fader of many
of them Africa Hello, why don't you this is what the last one that
has opened his heart to what a fall by the human eye 91 flight
out of many flight means like the news that came from Allah subhanaw
taala. So this will see you have the sheer need to
be concerned with your interstate. And yes, your outer state actually
you're concerned with it and so as not to injure other people. Right.
That's why the concept in the dean is an hater, how you look from the
outside, you know, not smell bad, and to wear clothes that are not
offensive. It's you're not actually dressing for yourself,
you're dressing for other people, but not so that you may impress
them but the minimum so that you don't bring any harm to them. And
then we read earlier
it was this class or another one who Luzina Tacoma Nicole msgid If
I could take your Xena in every masjid, you know, take your
adornment. So that has a
literal meaning. Like when you go especially to the mosque, the
faith of Allah subhanaw taala where something reasonable, right?
Not your skinny jeans that when you bend over, then everyone can
see your IRA. And you know not to a shirt with images on it that's
going to be any distracting to the Mossad lien. What could take your
Xena at that place. And then also, if the heart is a masjid, when
falgu bathe or Rob, right, it's a temple of God, then also make that
mosaic and make it adorned inside if you don't have any measure set,
right don't have any impure things. So impure thoughts. It's
like in the chest, it's like you have your masjid and masala, and
you have garbage dumped over here. And, you know, you walk the dog,
we didn't get a chance to get outside. So you took a dump over
here. And you know, you have things strewn all over the place,
who's going to want to pray in that machine.
Same thing, who's going to want to look at the heart that is full of
these measures set. And listen, as you said, and man are we so Hekla
Cora here has said, you know all these things of jealousy and
hatred and you know, Shemitah wanting to see bad things happen
to the people you don't like. These are all measures that
they're impure things or I'm not convinced. One was called Mohan
rather Allah and Allah, Allah Hola, como como como la is looking
at your heart. So you think you're going to be inspired, you're going
to find an inspired state, when it's full of all that stuff. How
could it be, they don't mix, right if you have a garden, and you want
your garden to be beautiful, but you have all these weeds growing
in and you have all this garbage strewn over it. You can plant as
many rose bushes as you want. But people are not going to see the
rose bushes, they're going to see a litter strewn garden that
doesn't have anything that's very
enticing or beautiful in it because you can't see it via all
of the garbage. That's true. That's why the Automate describes
this process as definitely from Medallia
thematically, so definitely a means to remove these impurities.
So these spiritual impurities from Metalia which is to then adorn it
with
the beautiful character traits, the beautiful attributes. So after
you've kind of raised the garden, got rid of all the weeds, but not
using ground up. Right, not using a poisonous way to do that. But a
pure way you turn the ground, right, Roundup is a fast track
poisonous way to get rid of your leads, right but then you destroy
the soil underneath we don't want to destroy our hearts so there's
no like, necessarily quick fix or quick routes to doing that. You
have to turn the ground right and turning the ground means Mujahid
debt. So if you're looking for the fast way fast track way to get rid
of all these things, it's not really exist. You employ your Lord
you beseech Him you put your head down on them, Salah ensued and you
know with the most sincere of intentions in your heart plead to
Allah subhanaw taala to lift these burdens from upon you is no sin
yet. Turn the ground so Mujahidin wake up in the middle of the night
wake up early at least professional fast the days even
outside of Ramadan. Oh
Bite your tongue when you want to say something that back to your
mom you didn't like what she said or your dad or your your siblings
or your spouse, hold yourself. How do you sometimes I hear that. So
we do these Mujahidin turning the ground. And you'll see that when
you turn the ground, it becomes ready for the seeds to be planted.
Now it has an acceptance in Allah and and microsurgical Luba whom I
mean as God, Allah subhanaw taala is with the brokenhearted for my
sake. So the brokenhearted, for my sake are those who have turned
this ground, right? And now they feel bear and maybe vulnerable
and, but the cup is now empty. Alright, don't come with a full
cup. Don't come with your arrogance and don't come with
you know, this sort of, I believe I'm a gift to the humanity sort of
attitude. But commenting with an empty cup and Allah will fill up
for you allow a lot to fill up for you, then the seeds can be
planted, then they begin to grow, then you irrigate them right now
there's a process of Talia, you order it, you maintain it there
siana There's upkeep, so forth, and then the trees begin to build
their roots. And when trees build their roots, Weeds don't come
back. Right now that that ground has been claimed by the true tree.
I shudder to tell you that, right. Can Kenema tell you that our sluka
Sabbath Sabbath or office summit to Oklahoma and cooler Hainan?
Right, the shrubs are not clear. But the good trees firmly planted
is like the good word. And then it's asserted its root is in the
ground and then it's for its branches go to the sky. And as we
know, a tree literally can keep growing and growing and growing.
And I went to the
Sequoia forest in Northern California, they they're like, I
don't know hundreds of years old or more and they can keep growing
and growing. And literally they're like skyscraper like size and so
when the good tree is firmly planted, then they can keep
growing and growing and you know bear fruits and and so forth. And
so at that point
it's planted the Weeds don't come back and people look at it in awe
and maybe they didn't see the turning of the ground in the
beginning and he didn't see how the roots were planting themselves
and going on and stretching out but now they see the finished
product on so the believer is kind of similar you have to turn the
ground you have to be on Bucha hit against your NIFS
so I kind of think the long commentary there but shallow
benefit there's another thing I want to read for maybe we kind of
wrap it up
with I think it's an important concept he says The next page will

he says

so we'll have to say someone who has gotten an allotment in life.
That is,

nice or good. So it says beware of choral quarreling with such a
person
and it's actually to NASA as not to not not to physically quarrel
with them to NASA we need to have an attitude or to have an
objection in your heart Why them and not me. So, you see someone
has been given a particular lot in life. And you say, Why them and
not me? So it says For he will be saved and promoted.
Right? Yes, level Wilfer while you will be wiped out, go down, suffer
humiliation be disgraced. How can you change his allotment by
contesting it? When his situation is predetermined by Allah Spano
Titus for knowledge. If you challenge and help the owner of
truth overs for knowledge concerning you and others, you
will fall from His sight and your knowledge will be useless to you.
As a lot more than I said, toiling and weary I'm not will not say
that. You must repent right now to Allah the innocent is clever do
not turn back from aspiring to him on account of some trial he has
inflicted upon you wait for it to be lifted from unions not despair
formerly for relief may come at any moment. Kuhnian hulufish
everyday use there's so every day Allah small town homeboys would
move it right are off our welder. Some people will be raised some
people will be the base some people will be given something
taken away. So every day you know it's like the market every day is
going to be up and down for different people. So you're up
maybe today but your dad may come tomorrow. And this this call this
call liberty and it is going back and forth. So you may turn to
Allah subhanaw taala that's when you then you have refined the
steadiness and you find your balance. What I can know I used to
call it that if you're just living with the ups and downs of every
day, you will never be
tranquil right you won't have this too much Nina. So why the Quran
says Allah basically laid out my inner column only by they can only
by the grace of Allah Spano garden will you find to Medina or you
find this piece that you're looking for?
He transfers things from one set of people to another you must be
patient with him with Allah and willingly accept his or Damond his
stuff with it because you do not know. It may be that Allah will
afterward bring some new thing to pass. Now the law you're forming
rather than a camera. Right? That's usually the case. If you
are patient, he will live at your misfortune and bring about a new
state of affairs, one that is to his liking and also to your
liking. If you're impatient and uncooperative, however, he will
cause misfortune to weigh more heavily upon you. He will give you
still more of it as a punishment for your obstructive attitude
toward him, but causes your obstructive and contemptuous
attitude toward him. He's your attachment to your lower selves,
your new force, your passions, your way and your personal
inclinations, your rod, your love of this world and you're greeted
desire to amass what it has to offer.
So
there's one thing also
see that don't have a shot on he said, this is true within
ourselves. Like if we have a misfortune that falls upon us,
then know that there's a lot there's a void, there's a hikma
from Allah subhanaw taala. Don't look at that as a punishment, but
look at as a type of training, unless training allow you a
devotee. Right? He's inculcating edip in me. And so it's not about
the thing that's before me. It's about what is the lesson have to
learn from it?
What do I take away from it? And then is it going to cause me to
turn towards Allah subhanaw taala or not? So that's true for
ourselves. It's also true for other people. All right, when even
if misfortunes befall other people, yes, the one extreme is to
be like Shemitah and be happy about the misfortune because you
don't like them. How the horror the other extreme is to see the
misfortune that befalls them and then fall into this sort of state
of
panic, not just panic, but
like, How can this happen? How can this happen to these people? You
know, impossible and what type of world is it? What is this world
coming to? You know, the world is going to * in a handbasket. I
don't think a Muslim should have ever heard that phrase, or
thinking because the one who's in control of the world of the dunya
is Allah subhanaw taala. And so, there should also be a distinct
Zen. Yes, we should have a stroke and we should be compassionate
and, and so forth. But also keep in mind maybe Allah smart Allah
just like the misfortune that befell you. Allah has a hikma
wisdom for it, maybe for that person too. Right? And maybe
there's something that Allah Samantha wants them to get out of
it that we don't see. So before we are so quick to judge and say,
This shouldn't have happened and
How can this happen and so forth? We should, at least in our heart,
seek permission from Allah subhanaw taala. And this there is
no right or seek His, his approval like for me to wish some other
state for that person. So just like we seek that about ourselves,
and we should also think about other people to maintain the
balance. So yes, we'll be compassionate and yes, we try. The
Sharia is full of commandments to lift the afflictions from other
people. And we do our best to afflict them. But here we're
talking not about what we do with our lives, but what we do with our
hearts. Right. Don't let your heart go that way, to the degree
that you have an objection to all of the misfortunes that are
happening all over the place. Because that's the world how Allah
designed it.
Will happen, will it How will Hakeem, it's the way he wants it.
And for wisdom that we can may not be able to understand. So missile
was pulled out. So we'll see that we'll stop here.
