			I mean, a lot more suddenly was

00:00:11 --> 00:00:16
			I mean, so you didn't Mohammed
Abdullah while Ernie was Harvey he
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:19
			was already at the regatta he he
was Where do you want to say
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:23
			that'd be heady? He was still in
the vicinity of where they will be
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:23
			Dean
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:33
			learning from them about so
humbled. We're continuing to read
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:40
			from the 62 discourses of St.
Louis Schiff. I love what he did,
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:44
			or the other jewelry or the law
and who at GitHub during the
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:48
			summer, the photographer Bernie
once later, there are many, the
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:49
			divine
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52
			revelation and the
		
00:00:53 --> 00:01:00
			Merciful. One in particular, has,
I think, many very useful useful
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:03
			things that Schiff says so I'm
hoping that she'll try to read
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:04
			most of it.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:11
			Inshallah, so we'll begin right
from the top. What he says a
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:12
			little bit of Iron
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:17
			Man rather older and yes
redonkulous ly as origin for
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:18
			Vietnam's economy out
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:26
			of aluminum Zuckerberg Finestra,
who you saw in one effort, while
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:30
			at the Himalaya and Africa While
America while Well, that could be
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			Ireland will be mini either doomed
to either dedicate
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:38
			more Africa, but since I would
prefer to be solely helpful where
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:40
			you have when you do okay, whether
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:46
			you bet the Mau factor water,
let's read off, you highlighted
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:49
			whether you can you are moving
collegia anymore, McCarran
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:55
			Kenny, at the Kalam, he just said
something
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:00
			that I think in just a few lines,
he summarizes kind of the whole
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:08
			what would say the whole loss or
the the essential aspect of this
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:13
			idea of contentment with the color
of the last panel that most of us
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:15
			we struggle with regularly.
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:20
			So he said, if someone wishes to
receive contentment with the
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:22
			judgment of the Lord his decree
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:24
			so again,
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:28
			let him practice constant
remembrance of death. For
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:31
			remembering death makes
afflictions and misfortune seem
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:36
			insignificant. You must not be
distrustful of his intentions
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:37
			toward yourself and Allah's
intentions,
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:43
			your property or your children.
But say, My Lord knows better than
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:47
			I do. If you always maintain this
attitude, you will experience the
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:50
			pleasure of contentment and
compliance. Right and without one
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			more fatwa. So compliance,
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:58
			I would say spiritual compliance,
right? It's not talking about
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:01
			compliance of the Command of Allah
subhanaw taala. In terms of tech
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:07
			leaf, right, in terms of Halal
haram, pray fast is going back by
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:10
			that's we call that already a good
tech leaving, but you're seeing
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:14
			compliance with tech weenie,
right, last month out of saying,
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:17
			going for your code and be in it
is that compliance,
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:21
			which you calls a shift in Arabic
and more of UCLA.
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:29
			So he says, If you always maintain
this attitude, you will experience
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:33
			the pleasure of contentment, and
compliance, right? There's another
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:38
			spiritual one, a sort of spiritual
fulfillment and ease that comes
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:43
			about when you're no longer
objecting to Allah Spano are no
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:47
			longer saying, in your hearts. Why
this? And why that? And why not
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:50
			this way? And why is this
happening this way? This is when
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:54
			as right, we want more, more of
that is, this is what allows you
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:58
			to create he knows better than I
do. He's not going I'm not he's
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:02
			not going to be less concerned
with my children, or my house, or
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:07
			with my wealth, or with my parents
or with my siblings? And if so,
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:11
			why does it matter to him as well?
So why do I constantly
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:16
			seek to second guess let's say the
best way to say it or question,
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:20
			why this way and why that way. So
he says, If you do this, you will
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:23
			experience the pleasure of
contentment, and compliance. So
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:27
			with the current note, alright, so
the remembrance of death.
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:31
			He says, because it makes
afflictions and misfortune
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:34
			seemingly insignificant, so
whatever you're gonna go through,
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:35
			eventually, it's all going to be
gone. Well, we're gonna die one
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:40
			day anyway. And at that point, all
of these little things that kind
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:42
			of we were hung up on and that
recording causing us this kind of
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:48
			mental and spiritual distress will
seem so insignificant. And our
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:52
			trepidation about anxiety about it
will feel very, very misplaced.
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:56
			And we all know that certainly in
the grave, but the shift through
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:59
			his word, what he's trying to
convey to us is, you can feel that
		
00:04:59 --> 00:04:59
			way now.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			You don't have to wait to get to
the grave you can see how
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:07
			insignificant it is, and how
trivial it is, if you live it if
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:09
			you make a stat or if you remember
it.
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:14
			So, if you always maintain this
attitude, you will experience the
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:17
			pleasure of contentment and
compliance, misfortunes will
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:20
			depart root and branch, what have
you avoid to say that, alright,
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:25
			and also move forward. So, also of
misfortunes, you know, the roots
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:28
			of misfortunes of, you know, and
then you have the little other
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:32
			misfortunes the branch that come
out of them. So, we know, anxiety
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:35
			bring breeds anxiety, so you worry
about one little thing, and then
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:38
			there's five others little things
that come as a result of that one
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:41
			little thing that you're worrying
about, and then your mind goes far
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:44
			away. And you think about, well,
you know, if I don't
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:48
			succeed at this particular thing,
then all these five other things
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			are not going to happen in time,
and then life will be very
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:53
			difficult, and then all these
things will happen. You know, and
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:57
			you're living in this dilemma,
right? It's like a, you know, like
		
00:05:57 --> 00:06:02
			the mouse in the, in the cartwheel
just running around, but not going
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:02
			anywhere.
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:08
			So Petropoulos count and mocha
winners battle, says addicts,
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:13
			leave them alone, leave the
creation, those things, and go to
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:16
			the ones who's making them as they
are recovering, the one who's
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:19
			making them be and then they
become, and then they remain and
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:23
			then they diminish and then they
go away all because of the command
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:24
			of configurable.
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:30
			So we have so much well, is that
right? You can erase things and
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:32
			you can confirm things. Almost.
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:36
			misfortunes will depart root and
branch and in their place, you
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:39
			will receive blessings and
delights. When you're compliant
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:43
			and happily contented conditions
of adversity. blessings will come
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:45
			to you from all sides and from
everywhere.
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:52
			Well, aren't you are you who are
neglectful of him, he must not be
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:55
			distracted from him by seeking
anything, but him.
		
00:06:56 --> 00:07:00
			How often you ask him to provide
you with affluence, but this may
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:04
			be a temptation for you, without
you realizing it, right. You want
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:08
			things to be easy, and you want
wealth and you want money and you
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:12
			want property and you want things
to go smoothly and what we
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:15
			consider to be signs of success.
You may ask for all those things.
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:18
			But he said here
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:23
			how often you ask them to provide
you with affluence, but this may
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:26
			be a temptation for you, without
you realizing it.
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:31
			You do not know the good in
anything so keep silent can form
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:35
			and ask him to grant you
contentment with his actions with
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:40
			his file. And gratitude under all
circumstances. After a provision
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:44
			is a temptation in the absence of
gratitude, while shortage of
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:48
			sustenance is a temptation when
patients is like hiding at the
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:51
			border. They're having this is a
golden state of New Mexico, I'll
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:52
			repeat it.
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:59
			Affluent provision is a
temptation. It's a fitna in the
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:04
			absence of gratitude. So having
affluence is not necessarily
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:08
			namah. It's not a blessing. The
blessing is, if you can be
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:12
			thankful for it, if you can show
gratitude for if you cannot, or
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:15
			you don't have that it's not a
blessing anymore for you, then it
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:19
			becomes an fitna, then it becomes
a temptation or a test.
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:25
			And he says, While shortage of
sustenance, is a temptation when
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:28
			patience is lacking. So the
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:31
			shortage of it, or what you
consider to be the shortage of
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:36
			your sustenance, of our lack of
affluence will be a fitna for you.
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:40
			If you're not patient with it, if
you're patient with it, you have
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:44
			supper, then it becomes enamored.
So it's not about what you have or
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:48
			what you don't have. It's about
how do you treat that which you do
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:52
			have or don't have in terms of
what Allah assigns you? What He
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:55
			decrees for you. Alright, how do
you contend with that guests? You
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:58
			know, we use the parable of the
guest house of rule. And I'm only
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:02
			here as the guest of difficulty
here as the guest of ease. How
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:04
			would you treat that guest? Well,
each guest has to be treated in
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:09
			the proper way according to the
disposition of that guest. So you
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:12
			have the guest of affluence, then
treated properly, by showing
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:16
			gratitude, you have the desk of
guest of adversity and difficulty
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:19
			coming away, then also treated
properly by showing forbearance
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:20
			and patience.
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:25
			That's why he said you do not know
the good in anything. So keep
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:28
			silent conform and ask him to
grant you contentment. That's why
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:31
			the other binder, the other works
application with things that we
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:34
			don't know there are things that
we don't know whether they're
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:38
			going to be good for us or bad for
us, then we do it in a way that
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:41
			smooth forward. It along so if we
it means we live the answer to
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:45
			Allah subhanaw taala. And we do it
in the form of istikhara. Seeking
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:47
			the good of it. So what we're not
we're not asking for that thing in
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:51
			particular, we're asking for that
thing. If it's good for us, that
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:55
			should be the way we see it. So
whether you you know, move to this
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:57
			particular place or take this
particular job or whatever it
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:59
			might be, seek the good of it in
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:02
			things that are put up, right and
things that the charity has
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:05
			assigned as ways of getting closer
to Allah subhanaw taala than we
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:08
			asked for them that allows us to
fulfill them. So you want to go to
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:08
			Hajj,
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:14
			then go to hajj when you have to
meet and go, if you want to, you
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:16
			know, we don't miss it gets too
hot about whether we should pray
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:19
			the five prayers or not. Because
the last one time has already told
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:22
			us this is good. This is what I
came in to do. So anything that
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:24
			will also want to have comments
from us, is always going to be
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:29
			good. So it's redundant to say Oh,
Allah make this easy. For me. It's
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:32
			good. Let me do the five pros if
it's good for me, or the others,
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:36
			right? Nobody does that that's
kind of nonsensical to do that.
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:41
			But in terms of things, we don't
know that what it's good for us or
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:44
			not, because it's an element like
that. Right? It's from amongst
		
00:10:44 --> 00:10:48
			it's from the world the unseen.
Then the etiquette that is to let
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:50
			ALLAH SubhanA determine that for
us.
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:56
			That's why he said remain silent
and conform right to the decree
		
00:10:58 --> 00:11:00
			and ask him to graduate the
contentment, right, because
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:05
			otherwise you Dini, right. It is
something that is, you know,
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:09
			obligatory, at least we're
commanded to be, you know, amen.
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:12
			Because believe it or shrubbery,
so even in the clutter, right in
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:16
			the decree of Allah smart Allah
failure shall be means the highest
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:18
			form of that demand from the man
as it an event from the stages of
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:23
			events to be morphic is to be your
body is to be content with it is
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:25
			to be compliant with it, whichever
way it may come.
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:33
			Gratitude will bring you more
blessings, and draw you closer to
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:38
			your Lord while patients will put
your heart on a firm footing, give
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:43
			it support and assistance and help
it to succeed. So each one has a
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:46
			particular outcome. And that means
when Allah subhanaw taala sends
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:50
			one or the other towards you, then
it really is for your own benefit.
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:53
			And if you see it as for your
benefit, why would I not be
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:56
			contented with that. So there are
things that you'll get out of
		
00:11:56 --> 00:12:01
			gratitude, for example, or sugar
that you may not find in the
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:06
			Macomb or the place of suburb of
patients and vice versa, those
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:09
			things that can only get the
patience that will not come about
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:13
			with the gratitude. And so we want
our Eman to be sort of
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:20
			comprehensive and complete and
holistic and and surefooted and
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:29
			not susceptible to certain a
occurrences then that will weaken
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:33
			the footing underneath us. And so
Allah subhanaw taala there is this
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:35
			process of demons as we've said
many times before the prophets I
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:39
			said mentioned by himself,
definitely Rami fascinated me, my
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:42
			Lord has inculcated other than me
and he's the one best one to do
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:45
			that. And so via the ups and downs
and ebbs and flows and hills and
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:46
			valleys of life,
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:51
			you will find if you are doing
this as he's gonna mention later
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:54
			the software with Allah subhanaw
taala. So I'm taking a loss about
		
00:12:54 --> 00:12:58
			Allah as my Sahib. Right as the
Prophet SAW Selim said in a hadith
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:02
			enter Sahib of his suffer, you are
my companion in my travel. So
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:06
			whether it's a physical travel
from A to B, or the big, large
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:09
			travel that we all are doing from
cradle to the grave, that travel,
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:14
			we say, in our heart to Allah
subhanaw taala into Sahaba. For
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:18
			suffer, you are our companion in
this journey.
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:22
			And so taking a lot smarter as our
companion in this journey, that
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:22
			means
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:28
			let him, guide them out, let Him
guide the camera. And he even
		
00:13:28 --> 00:13:29
			brings up this example a little
bit.
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:36
			So, we'll say that again. He says
gratitude will bring you more
		
00:13:36 --> 00:13:39
			blessings and draw you closer to
your Lord at the COVID A lot of
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:44
			patients will put your heart on a
firm footing, give it support and
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:47
			assistance and hope to succeed. It
will then have a praiseworthy
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:50
			outcome in this world and
hereafter, resistance to a heart
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:54
			to the Lord of truth is unlawful,
right what we call this Manasa. It
		
00:13:54 --> 00:14:00
			darkens the heart and the face,
right? The anxiety, the worry, the
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:04
			you know, what can I do? And then
the feeling of helplessness in the
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:07
			face of all those things. But you
can take that feeling of
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:10
			helplessness and channel in a
positive way or you can fall back
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:14
			on it in a very negative way. Like
almost falling on your sword. It's
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:19
			almost a spiritual suicide. If
you'd let that helplessness drive
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:23
			you to despair. Where I'm
helpless, I can't do anything.
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:26
			There's nothing I can do. The
situation is desperate. All is
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:32
			lost. Or you can say subhanallah
I'm hopeless. And I am for clear,
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:35
			but Ullswater whole journey and
what's what are the whole
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:39
			following? What was wrong? How
will my team or family my God,
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:44
			he's all those things that I'm not
and so I should then grab on to
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:48
			have the nettle Mateen right.
Strong rope of Allah subhanaw
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:55
			taala to lift me out of an avoid
this situation of despair. Right
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:58
			we should never as Muslims in
short, we should never call the
		
00:14:58 --> 00:15:00
			state of despair. We fall into
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02
			was state of despair because we
look back on ourselves and we see
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:05
			that there's nothing there. But
don't stop there. Yeah, there's
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:09
			nothing that's true. But go to the
next
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:13
			point you're supposed to go to the
next station that you're supposed
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:17
			to reach. You realize your own
incapacity you realize your own
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:22
			inability yours own weakness. And
then you realize the greatness and
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:26
			the omniscience and omnipotence of
the one who can grant anything,
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:28
			namely, the last panel talk.
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:34
			So he says Warren to you, instead
of letting your lower self
		
00:15:35 --> 00:15:38
			work in opposition, you should
keep it busy pleading with the
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:42
			Lord of truth. Keep it preoccupied
with this until the times of
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:43
			tribulations are over.
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:48
			And the fires of misfortune are
extinguished. So Allah is giving
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:51
			you tribulation because he wants
you to go back to him. So go back
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:54
			to him, plead with him. Don't
complain to anyone. If you're
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:56
			going to complain and want to
complain to all the last panel
		
00:15:57 --> 00:16:01
			right? Make your Shukla it Allah
as our prophesizing escuela data
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:05
			quality or quality that you will
have any other Ness yarrabilba
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:09
			will start off in that was a point
of the province. I said let's see
		
00:16:09 --> 00:16:12
			how he turned to his Lord in that
particular McCollum that he was in
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:17
			just after a talk if, right and it
seemed like situation was
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:21
			difficult, even these people that
you had hopes that perhaps they
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:25
			would listen, they practically ran
him out of the town and having
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:29
			the, you know, the humble servants
and young children throwing rocks
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:33
			at him as he's leaving. And they
had hands of protecting the
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:37
			promise till he retreated to the
stem about this to the garden of
		
00:16:37 --> 00:16:40
			our deaths. And that's what he
said under the tree. And he said
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:40
			those very
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:47
			powerful and profound words, Ash
called the lake Dafoe with the
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:49
			Chautauqua. It's not a complaint
but
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:56
			a acknowledgement of situation.
Botha, Kuwaiti, my weakness and
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:02
			good healer. Right. And perhaps
maybe I wasn't, you know, the
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:05
			healer I wasn't eloquent enough. I
didn't say it right to them. The
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:09
			Dow wasn't straight with them.
Well, how many Islanders? Right,
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:12
			and so they didn't take me very
seriously. Yeah, it'll be the most
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:16
			often right, and you're still
laughing. So the Lord of the ones
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:19
			who are weak, and more
specifically, the ones who see
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:22
			themselves as weak, right, and
that's what we truly are. Once
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:27
			that's, that's a huge door, if you
can get through that door, and you
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:30
			get to the other side. The other
side is is what the chef has
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:34
			described. There will be ease and
facilitation and lead and
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:39
			spiritual comfort and contentment
and no more trepidation or anxiety
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:43
			but, you know, you will feel they
say the coolness of Allah's
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:47
			decree. So whether it's something
that is clear or something that is
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:50
			shown something that is easy,
something is difficult, you can
		
00:17:50 --> 00:17:53
			choose to make it into a fitna or
you make it into an error. And now
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:57
			I'm at the edge Malka, Allah,
Allah will fitna metaphoric Oka.
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:02
			That's what they said. Then Yama
is the thing that brings you right
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:06
			literally the words that get you
Malka brings all of you to Allah
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:08
			subhanaw taala. So your Auckland,
your rock, your silver, your
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:13
			spiritual neffs limbs, brings you
all into with Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:17
			well fitna, too far Evoca to shut
down, okay. And the fitna is the
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:21
			opposite the trial, the temptation
that tribulation is that which
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:27
			to forget what to shut it right,
it splits you up. It has you going
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:30
			in all different directions, it
have you, you know, oscillating
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:33
			between, you know, thinking this
thing and thinking that thing and
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:37
			not sure of yourself and not sure
of your email, I think all was
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:40
			lost. And this is exactly where
she kind of wants to have you
		
00:18:40 --> 00:18:44
			slip. And then it gets you into
the point of desperation. But
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:48
			doesn't matter the outside
circumstance, whether it's
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:50
			something of ease, or something of
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:56
			bliss or affluence or whatever it
might be making a Namur by
		
00:18:57 --> 00:19:00
			treating the guests properly, so
give it some of some of his needed
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:04
			patients when patients needed
gratitude shock or when it's
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:04
			needed as well.
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:11
			So he says oh, you claim to sick
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:15
			or you currently seeking truth
Where do you stand in relation to
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:17
			the one who is familiar with the
treasure houses of His mercy on
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:22
			Rama and as long as muhabba so
plead with him on you on the road
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:23
			before attaining to him?
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:29
			Right public school, so as you are
making your way towards this more
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:33
			intimate knowledge of Allah
subhanaw taala it needs pleading
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:37
			it needs to hear God perhaps
waking up in the night and praying
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:40
			and pleading when no one else sees
you and no one else is aware of
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:42
			it. Even if you're lying in your
bed at night before you go to
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:47
			sleep. The core of Allah subhanaw
taala asking Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:19:47 --> 00:19:50
			asking for tofield keep knocking
at the doors what he's saying.
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:58
			So when you are perplexed, he says
oh guide of the Perplexed guidance
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:07
			which
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:10
			was fun
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:24
			when
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:32
			and when you are put to the test
and capable of patients say, you
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:35
			know he helped me Give me patients
and Gregory relief played with
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:37
			him. No one else
		
00:20:38 --> 00:20:41
			asked when you have arrived and
your heart is admitted to his
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:44
			presence and draw near to Him,
there is no need to ask no, you
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:49
			know, no use for the tongue, but
only silence and witnessing. You
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:50
			become a guest.
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:57
			And the guest does not express his
own wishes, his own wishes. Here's
		
00:20:57 --> 00:21:00
			a different McLamb that the ship
is talking about. So he's talking
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:03
			about McLemore Selleck, or worried
so as you're making your way
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:08
			along, plead with Him, ask Him if
you feel trepidation, anxiety in
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:09
			your heart, ask Allah subhanaw
taala.
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:15
			And do so with your tongue and do
so with your heart. But he says
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:19
			when you have arrived, and your
heart is admitted to his presence
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:23
			and hovered here and wrote to him,
then there is no need to ask no
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:26
			use for the tongue but only
silence and witnessing, as you've
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:27
			not said,
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:31
			rob them at the level with Adam
Adams.
		
00:21:33 --> 00:21:35
			Perhaps the edit that they feel in
the heart of the time that
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:39
			particular place they're in tell
them not to ask, right. Like we
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:42
			said in the Mohammed Ibrahim
Ibrahim alayhi salam when he was
		
00:21:42 --> 00:21:47
			putting the catapult and thrown
into the fire pit. He said has
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:51
			we're not here and so early
enough, my lord knows my situation
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:54
			that I don't need to ask. Right?
Because there's a theater. There's
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:58
			a confidence and a trust in Allah
subhanaw taala? Well, it's not
		
00:21:58 --> 00:22:02
			like he's unaware of what's going
on. He sees what's going on. So I
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:06
			should not be asking him to remind
him. So whether you're a Santa
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:09
			Clara, if you don't ask a loss on
Isla, to remind them oh, by the
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:12
			way, did you notice that? You
know, I lost my job last week and
		
00:22:12 --> 00:22:17
			my unemployment benefits and come
in. And I keep asking for that to
		
00:22:17 --> 00:22:21
			be forthcoming ask Yes. Or
forthcoming and in a way so that
		
00:22:21 --> 00:22:25
			you can realize your incapacity
was the one who was capable, not
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:28
			because you think you are
reminding him, this then becomes a
		
00:22:28 --> 00:22:32
			dogma. It's like you're accusing
Allah subhanaw taala. That's why
		
00:22:32 --> 00:22:34
			they said some of them are Obama
development other other.
		
00:22:35 --> 00:22:38
			Sometimes the MACOM there, and
you'll say I don't have to ask
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:42
			sometimes it's so good silence.
And you shahada, right. And this
		
00:22:42 --> 00:22:46
			is the maklumat of the RFP, it is
of the micrometer, if you're not
		
00:22:46 --> 00:22:50
			the only one, so they will make
the proper size obviously made.
		
00:22:51 --> 00:22:54
			And he made that fervently while
you can hook animal shelter,
		
00:22:54 --> 00:22:58
			right. He's also shown people the
thing to do, but sometimes the
		
00:22:58 --> 00:23:01
			internal state of the heart tells
you that I know Allah sees me.
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:06
			Not I know I taste Allah seeing
me, I see Allah seeing me and
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:09
			Allah more calm and more our club.
So the moral club, it means you
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:13
			see Allah that You see Allah
seeing you. And so you feel like,
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:17
			I don't need to ask I need to
witness and I need to let this
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:20
			thing run its course wherever it
might be. And then we'll swap out
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:25
			or we'll decide to lift it when
the time is right for me. Right?
		
00:23:25 --> 00:23:27
			It's not like it's I'm
inconveniencing Allah subhanaw
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:30
			taala he doesn't get anything out
of it is from our benefit.
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:35
			So then he says, you become a
guest. And the guest does not
		
00:23:35 --> 00:23:39
			express his own wishes. He behaves
with good manners eats what is he
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:44
			is afford, and accepts what He has
given unless he's told to say what
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:46
			he would like in which case he
makes his wishes known in
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:49
			obedience to an order not of his
own volition. Asking is
		
00:23:49 --> 00:23:54
			appropriate when one is at a
distance, and silence when one is
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:57
			near. Right. When you're close to
the hollow, the presence of God
		
00:23:57 --> 00:24:00
			and you're feeling it you're
witnessing, then you will feel
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:06
			that asking, in a way, like as we
said earlier, to remind a lot to
		
00:24:06 --> 00:24:07
			kind of steal your heart
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:12
			is somewhat redundant because your
heart is already still Allah,
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:14
			Allah has made your heart still
and you see yourself as a guest.
		
00:24:14 --> 00:24:18
			And we are guests the longer you
put off man, who's the one who
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:21
			brought us here? Or put us in this
world? Who is the one that who's
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:23
			providing our sustenance and
providing our food and our
		
00:24:23 --> 00:24:27
			nutrition and our families? And is
it not Allah subhanaw taala? Are
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:30
			we not then guests of Allah
subhanaw taala. And
		
00:24:32 --> 00:24:37
			you know, when the host is far
away in another room, and maybe
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:41
			you want to get his attention to,
you know, what can I get like a,
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:43
			you know, an apple or something or
a handkerchief or use the
		
00:24:43 --> 00:24:46
			bathroom? It's appropriate. But
when the host is sitting right in
		
00:24:46 --> 00:24:49
			front of you, right, and you keep
asking for things, it's not
		
00:24:49 --> 00:24:54
			appropriate. And that's what he's
saying. So, if I'm close to the
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:59
			Hadera, then it's not appropriate
for me to keep asking in that
		
00:24:59 --> 00:25:00
			particular
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:04
			UML so don't misunderstand and
think that flat is not applicable.
		
00:25:04 --> 00:25:08
			There is always a political right?
What do I owe my dad, but he's
		
00:25:08 --> 00:25:11
			saying the way that you're asking
the manner by which you're asked.
		
00:25:15 --> 00:25:18
			He says the people of the Lord are
acquainted with none but the Lord
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:18
			of truth.
		
00:25:20 --> 00:25:24
			influential people of Bath have
lost all connection with them. And
		
00:25:24 --> 00:25:27
			material concerns as verb have
been discarded from the hearts,
		
00:25:27 --> 00:25:31
			even if they are deprived of food
and drink for days or months. They
		
00:25:31 --> 00:25:35
			do not care and remain unaffected,
because it is their Sustainer or
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:39
			one who has the right he provides
the authority that he provides the
		
00:25:39 --> 00:25:44
			sustenance and he gives them
whatever nourishment he wishes.
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:49
			If someone claims to love Allah,
then seeks from him something
		
00:25:49 --> 00:25:51
			other than himself.
		
00:25:53 --> 00:25:55
			He is lying about his love for
him.
		
00:25:56 --> 00:25:56
			As
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:02
			if you really love Allah subhanaw
taala but you're asking for
		
00:26:02 --> 00:26:05
			something other than Allah. So you
only love Allah because he thinks
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:08
			he can give to you. Because he can
take care of your needs, and you
		
00:26:08 --> 00:26:10
			can live your trial and
tribulation is that the source of
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:13
			love? What if we were to express
our love that way to someone,
		
00:26:13 --> 00:26:15
			another human being and that way,
you know, I really love you
		
00:26:15 --> 00:26:20
			because you know, you make the
best, you know, macaroni and the,
		
00:26:21 --> 00:26:22
			you know, the,
		
00:26:23 --> 00:26:28
			the moraine pie really was
amazing. I really loved that about
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:31
			you that that you want to make
that. It's not going to be taken
		
00:26:31 --> 00:26:33
			perhaps in the right way. But
		
00:26:34 --> 00:26:38
			but when you love someone for the
sake of that person, right? So it
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:39
			doesn't matter if they make lemon
meringue pie, or they make
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:45
			macaroni or they make, you know,
whatever. So with Allah subhanaw
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:49
			taala we love Allah so we seek
ALLAH, what does it mean to seek
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:54
			us out, it means that we want to
be in the editor with or we
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:55
			originally there, it's
		
00:26:57 --> 00:27:01
			right want to be in the era, the
circle of return, that Allah is
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:05
			pleased with us. And we want to be
taken out of the era of the circle
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:08
			where Allah is displeased with us.
That is the most important thing.
		
00:27:08 --> 00:27:11
			So what are we seeking Allah was
seeking to be pleased with us. So
		
00:27:11 --> 00:27:15
			we asked him to help us fulfill
those things, the commandments, he
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:21
			has decreed for us so that we may
find his law. And in turn, he will
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:24
			put rid of our law in our hearts
as well.
		
00:27:28 --> 00:27:34
			So he says, As for one, who has
come to be loved as my who was
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:38
			arrived as a guest and indoor near
he has told us express your
		
00:27:38 --> 00:27:42
			desires and see what you wish to
have for you are empowered,
		
00:27:43 --> 00:27:46
			The lover that more hip is
constrained, while the beloved the
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:52
			Malibu is at ease. Right? And
we've talked about Muhammad
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:55
			Muhammad and Muhammad Muhammad
Obeah. So it's one thing to be the
		
00:27:55 --> 00:27:58
			one who's loving and seeking. And
it's quite a whole nother thing
		
00:27:58 --> 00:28:03
			altogether to be the one who was
loved to be as malleable. And the
		
00:28:03 --> 00:28:08
			one who was my humble, right
realizes that there's nothing that
		
00:28:08 --> 00:28:12
			they can hold against Allah
subhanaw taala there's no trust to
		
00:28:12 --> 00:28:16
			him. Someone who is hip may be
like, Okay, how come? I love you
		
00:28:16 --> 00:28:19
			so much. But why didn't you do
this? I want you to do that. You
		
00:28:19 --> 00:28:23
			kind of dashed my hopes, as I'm a
comment ahead, right, the lover
		
00:28:23 --> 00:28:25
			who's seeking some sort of,
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:29
			you know,
		
00:28:31 --> 00:28:36
			gift or reciprocating
reciprocating of the love that
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:39
			they have back to them. And so
they're always going to be in this
		
00:28:39 --> 00:28:45
			sort of, sort of constrained way.
Right? Because they don't realize
		
00:28:45 --> 00:28:48
			that the beloved already loves
them more than they can even
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:51
			imagine. And once they reach to
that place, they come to the
		
00:28:51 --> 00:28:54
			Bugaboo right, the beloved, the
man who was at ease, because what
		
00:28:54 --> 00:28:58
			will make them ahead will make the
lover at ease, knowing that the
		
00:28:58 --> 00:29:00
			object of their love or the
subject of their love loves them.
		
00:29:01 --> 00:29:05
			That's all that they want. And as
long as they're unsure about that,
		
00:29:05 --> 00:29:08
			or uncertain about that, they will
keep reaching for it and searching
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:13
			for once they know that they are
loved. And they become them by
		
00:29:13 --> 00:29:15
			whom, then there's an ease.
		
00:29:16 --> 00:29:22
			Right, the fork of Lena Legenden
for later case, right? Because he
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:23
			didn't know that she loved him or
didn't love him. He just kept
		
00:29:23 --> 00:29:28
			chasing after her and, you know,
being a puppet hazard. You don't
		
00:29:28 --> 00:29:28
			know how that
		
00:29:30 --> 00:29:35
			can be shut off. Somebody that can
help them and second era. I guess
		
00:29:35 --> 00:29:37
			this wall like is this one, it
goes out to her neighborhood and
		
00:29:38 --> 00:29:41
			kiss the walls of the houses
around her house in the
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:44
			neighborhood, not even her house.
And then he said it's not the love
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:48
			of the walls that has made my
heart go into love when I can put
		
00:29:48 --> 00:29:52
			them in second at the top. But the
one who lives behind the walls is
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:56
			what has you know bursted my heart
out in this love. I'm going to
		
00:29:57 --> 00:30:00
			write the one was my hope is that
is there
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:04
			provision for the lover and gifts
for the beloved.
		
00:30:05 --> 00:30:07
			The servant continues to be a
lover for his in a state of
		
00:30:07 --> 00:30:12
			bewilderment, hey man, separation
and fragmentation and of having to
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:15
			earn for the sake of nourishment,
right as a Muslim and
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:20
			then when a transformation occurs
when it comes to be a beloved, the
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:23
			state of affairs is completely
changed as far as he's concerned.
		
00:30:24 --> 00:30:27
			He receives affection and
attention, comfort, ease, affluent
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:30
			provision, and control over
creatures that are coming back,
		
00:30:30 --> 00:30:32
			we'll be right when you see that.
		
00:30:34 --> 00:30:37
			Your personal inclinations, your
Windsors, things and so forth, are
		
00:30:37 --> 00:30:39
			immaterial and don't count anymore
and you don't even want to have
		
00:30:39 --> 00:30:42
			anything to do with him. You only
want for the beloved, to be
		
00:30:42 --> 00:30:44
			pleased with you. You want to be
marble.
		
00:30:46 --> 00:30:51
			All of this comes by virtue of his
patience, and steadfastness in his
		
00:30:51 --> 00:30:55
			state of love, the servants
friendship sofa right here for
		
00:30:55 --> 00:31:00
			Allah and the love of Allah. For
his servant is not like the love
		
00:31:00 --> 00:31:04
			of one creature for another. As
for Lord, Lisa, chemically Shaco
		
00:31:04 --> 00:31:07
			seminar last year. Right and
that's the verse we're not this is
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:12
			not human. But as we said in a
previous session, I believe we
		
00:31:12 --> 00:31:16
			take a lot as our Sahabi doesn't
take us as our as his side, Allah
		
00:31:16 --> 00:31:17
			is not in need of a soccer
		
00:31:18 --> 00:31:20
			metaphor, the Sahaba and whether
whether the right he didn't take,
		
00:31:20 --> 00:31:23
			he doesn't need to have a saw him
or child or anything like that. So
		
00:31:23 --> 00:31:27
			he doesn't need us but we are in
complete need of Him. So the
		
00:31:27 --> 00:31:32
			scenario or the metaphor, and he
works one way from us, to him, US
		
00:31:32 --> 00:31:36
			sticking alongside us, loving
Allah Spano Tata, and then
		
00:31:36 --> 00:31:42
			realizing that our very existence
is an act of love, right and of
		
00:31:42 --> 00:31:45
			divine love in a manner that is
commensurate with the Majesty of
		
00:31:46 --> 00:31:47
			Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:31:50 --> 00:31:53
			So, the remaining time, we don't
have a lot of time, but the shift
		
00:31:53 --> 00:31:59
			here gives quite a, I think an
incredible use of describing the
		
00:31:59 --> 00:32:03
			staff of Musa Moses Ali salaam,
and how it relates what we're
		
00:32:03 --> 00:32:05
			talking about. So just try to read
through that.
		
00:32:10 --> 00:32:15
			So he said, Our Lord provide
allegories for the sake of human
		
00:32:15 --> 00:32:18
			beings from him, you must seek
understanding of him from him, you
		
00:32:18 --> 00:32:21
			must seek the delight of hearts in
his company, for he extends the
		
00:32:21 --> 00:32:24
			heart's delight to whomever He
will. He multiplies the sustenance
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:28
			of hearts from whoever He will the
heart of one of these people and
		
00:32:29 --> 00:32:32
			embraces all the inhabitants of
the heavens and the earth. His
		
00:32:32 --> 00:32:36
			heart comes to resemble the staff
of Moses of Musa and he set up the
		
00:32:36 --> 00:32:42
			staff of Musa or Moses started out
as wisdom. hikma then it became
		
00:32:42 --> 00:32:44
			power Cordero.
		
00:32:45 --> 00:32:48
			He used to carry his traveling
provisions when he could not carry
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:51
			them himself, would protect him
from harm while he was sitting or
		
00:32:51 --> 00:32:55
			asleep. It would produce all kinds
of fruit for him and writing would
		
00:32:55 --> 00:32:57
			shade while he was resting.
		
00:32:58 --> 00:33:02
			Right fruits in a sense, like he
had many uses. And the verse that
		
00:33:02 --> 00:33:06
			these mentions just a few lines
down when I took NVMe and also
		
00:33:06 --> 00:33:10
			color quality outside their work,
are they Oh, sure we are let me
		
00:33:10 --> 00:33:11
			see if you're eligible.
		
00:33:13 --> 00:33:17
			For the LTL Yeah, Musa after. So
he said, What is that in your
		
00:33:17 --> 00:33:21
			right hand? Moses, he said, This
is my staff in which I lean, which
		
00:33:21 --> 00:33:25
			I beat down branches for my sheep.
I wish I find other uses the staff
		
00:33:25 --> 00:33:29
			of Moses. So, it hikma means it
has many uses.
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:38
			So it will produce all kinds of
food for him providing shade while
		
00:33:38 --> 00:33:43
			he was rested. Allah showed him
his power in it Allah's power. So
		
00:33:43 --> 00:33:47
			we became familiar with the divine
power by means of staff.
		
00:33:48 --> 00:33:51
			And that significant could have
been anything but it was something
		
00:33:51 --> 00:33:56
			that was more or less essential
for everyday life and use of lose
		
00:33:56 --> 00:34:00
			sight of his sentiment via that
medium. He gave it the power to
		
00:34:00 --> 00:34:04
			defeat Pharaoh and power with the
one who proclaimed himself Lord
		
00:34:04 --> 00:34:05
			over everything.
		
00:34:07 --> 00:34:11
			So then he made him a prophet and
Nebby Musa, they sent him and this
		
00:34:11 --> 00:34:15
			was his staff before he became a
prophet right. drew him close,
		
00:34:15 --> 00:34:18
			spoke to him that I can Ebola
right he was the one that God
		
00:34:18 --> 00:34:20
			spoke to and charged him with
responsibility. Then he said to
		
00:34:20 --> 00:34:23
			him, of course I just mentioned
what is that in your right hand?
		
00:34:23 --> 00:34:27
			Oh, Moses said this is my staff. I
will try lean and without detail
		
00:34:27 --> 00:34:30
			branches from my sheep in which I
find other uses. Then he said to
		
00:34:30 --> 00:34:35
			him, throw it down and clearly
Musa they they hate Contessa.
		
00:34:35 --> 00:34:38
			Right. So if we were down it
turned into an enormous serpent,
		
00:34:38 --> 00:34:40
			from which he initially ran away.
		
00:34:41 --> 00:34:44
			Then Allah subhanaw taala said to
him, who would have what at our
		
00:34:44 --> 00:34:46
			house and we will have sea otter
hand
		
00:34:47 --> 00:34:52
			grasping and field now we shall
return it to its former state. The
		
00:34:52 --> 00:34:55
			purpose of this was to give him a
demonstration of the divine power,
		
00:34:56 --> 00:34:59
			so as to make the dominion of
Pharaoh seem trivial in his eyes.
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:05
			Everyday stick walkingstick but it
became this thing that can defeat
		
00:35:05 --> 00:35:09
			the sorcerers and the magician's
of Pharaoh and make the dominion
		
00:35:09 --> 00:35:12
			of Pharaoh and all of the power
and the Timothy Elana, Quranic
		
00:35:12 --> 00:35:14
			temples and that great
civilization, all that was built
		
00:35:14 --> 00:35:17
			by his ancestors seemed like
nothing.
		
00:35:19 --> 00:35:22
			And to teach him to wage war, and
Pharaoh and his people be
		
00:35:22 --> 00:35:26
			committed, how can we commit to
Hajah? Right, that military war
		
00:35:26 --> 00:35:29
			they didn't fight pitch battles
against the Egyptians, the
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:34
			Venezuelan Moses, but it was the
climax of Raja, right the war of
		
00:35:34 --> 00:35:37
			ideas, the word of truth versus
falsehood.
		
00:35:39 --> 00:35:43
			It prepared him to fight them and
made him aware of its of miracles.
		
00:35:43 --> 00:35:47
			At the outset, he was constricted
in the heart in the breast, right,
		
00:35:48 --> 00:35:51
			because he ran away initially.
Then he made his heart wide and
		
00:35:51 --> 00:35:54
			gave him the hook, the law
prophethood and will work and
		
00:35:54 --> 00:35:56
			knowledge and
		
00:35:58 --> 00:36:01
			oh exert one forgets his power and
disobey is do not forget the one
		
00:36:01 --> 00:36:02
			who does not forget you.
		
00:36:03 --> 00:36:07
			Do not be heedless of the one who
is never heedless of you will
		
00:36:07 --> 00:36:09
			remember death where the Angel of
Death is entrusted with your
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:14
			spirits. Do not be diluted by your
mouth, your property. Oh, sorry,
		
00:36:14 --> 00:36:17
			your youth, your property and
everything you have around you.
		
00:36:18 --> 00:36:21
			Right like the dominion of
Pharaoh. That's all a delusion.
		
00:36:22 --> 00:36:25
			The power is what Allah even put
in a power in this regular
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:31
			walkingstick that defeated Pharaoh
and his army. Right It was the
		
00:36:31 --> 00:36:34
			same stick that was a serpent and
defeated the magician's and the
		
00:36:34 --> 00:36:39
			same stick when he cast it down at
the, at the foot of the bank of
		
00:36:39 --> 00:36:43
			the, of the Red Sea. It split, was
able to walk through it and later
		
00:36:43 --> 00:36:47
			drowned Pharaoh and his troops,
the same stick, same ordinary
		
00:36:47 --> 00:36:47
			stick.
		
00:36:48 --> 00:36:51
			But it was not ordinary because of
what ALLAH SubhanA put, he made it
		
00:36:51 --> 00:36:52
			go from hikma to Quadra.
		
00:36:53 --> 00:36:57
			Right Hikmah means there is a
wisdom. Like why all these things
		
00:36:57 --> 00:37:01
			are happening to us. It's training
us it's giving us a therapy, and
		
00:37:01 --> 00:37:05
			then comes the Quadra. Right, and
then comes the power, the power of
		
00:37:05 --> 00:37:07
			contentment, the power of
		
00:37:09 --> 00:37:12
			knowing or maboob Right, knowing
that you're the Beloved of Allah
		
00:37:12 --> 00:37:14
			subhanaw taala. And if you're the
beloved of was one of that, and
		
00:37:14 --> 00:37:17
			then you'll be beloved of
everything. If Allah loves you,
		
00:37:17 --> 00:37:18
			then everything loves you.
		
00:37:19 --> 00:37:23
			The trees, the rocks, sun, the
stars, the moon, everything, this
		
00:37:23 --> 00:37:26
			was the MACOM of our profit
source. And still remains is my
		
00:37:26 --> 00:37:29
			farm and the heirs of our province
are selling they can have on a
		
00:37:29 --> 00:37:31
			seed, they can have an allotment
		
00:37:33 --> 00:37:34
			of that McCall.
		
00:37:40 --> 00:37:42
			And there's just so much in this
particular
		
00:37:43 --> 00:37:44
			business, but we're just about
		
00:37:45 --> 00:37:46
			out of time.
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:49
			So I'm just gonna read maybe
		
00:37:52 --> 00:37:53
			one last thing here
		
00:38:00 --> 00:38:01
			the last section, he says
		
00:38:04 --> 00:38:07
			this path is not traveled in
company with lower self, the neffs
		
00:38:07 --> 00:38:09
			and the passions that How about
rather with the rule of law that
		
00:38:10 --> 00:38:14
			the Sharia and the practice
thereof, which is the theory
		
00:38:16 --> 00:38:19
			and the abandonment of one's power
and strength, patient endurance,
		
00:38:19 --> 00:38:25
			the acceptance of submissive
obedience slam Queenie, to one
		
00:38:25 --> 00:38:26
			Allah says configurable
		
00:38:27 --> 00:38:30
			and resignation, the forsaking of
haste and the adoption of a steady
		
00:38:30 --> 00:38:34
			pace. This is not something you
can get in a hurry. It requires
		
00:38:34 --> 00:38:40
			proper preparations. Right? Let's
see, man. Well, we had rope and
		
00:38:40 --> 00:38:43
			camel saddles is the metaphor,
like you have to roll up your
		
00:38:43 --> 00:38:47
			sleeves, the patient's effort and
striving and now that you have the
		
00:38:47 --> 00:38:50
			companionship, one of the kings of
knowledge will come out even to
		
00:38:50 --> 00:38:54
			guard you, instructor and relieve
you of your burden. That's why we
		
00:38:54 --> 00:38:56
			have to have good software will
show us how to have good software
		
00:38:56 --> 00:38:57
			with Allah.
		
00:38:59 --> 00:39:02
			You must walk in his train and we
are exhausted, he will give orders
		
00:39:02 --> 00:39:05
			for you to be carried or let you
right behind him. If you are a
		
00:39:05 --> 00:39:10
			lover or him, he will let you ride
behind him. If you are beloved and
		
00:39:10 --> 00:39:13
			who you will mount you in his
saddle while he writes behind you.
		
00:39:14 --> 00:39:18
			That's a metaphor. So when you
become the backbone, then you see
		
00:39:18 --> 00:39:22
			the outcome of Allah running
through you. When you are the more
		
00:39:22 --> 00:39:28
			Hibben you are seeking. Right? You
will feel that you have to seek
		
00:39:28 --> 00:39:29
			and you have to
		
00:39:30 --> 00:39:31
			kind of
		
00:39:32 --> 00:39:35
			stare at yourself but you're
unable to steer it. But when
		
00:39:35 --> 00:39:39
			you've come to the boob, then
you're sitting in the saddle. And
		
00:39:39 --> 00:39:43
			he writes behind you so the power
of the fulcrum and Audra and
		
00:39:43 --> 00:39:47
			Nicola you feel is with you. So
you feel decisions or decisions
		
00:39:47 --> 00:39:51
			based upon something that you're
seeing, or your animals being says
		
00:39:51 --> 00:39:54
			to you that says to your heart, we
are called right and then
		
00:39:54 --> 00:39:57
			communicates that to your oxygen,
your neffs and your limbs. And so
		
00:39:57 --> 00:39:59
			everything then becomes in
conformance with the divine.
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:01
			In decree, and divine command,
		
00:40:02 --> 00:40:08
			anyone who has tasted this will
know it from experience to be in
		
00:40:08 --> 00:40:12
			the company of truly competent
people. Here is a blessing A now
		
00:40:12 --> 00:40:17
			Rama, while being with liars and
hypocrites, is a curse or a Nygma.
		
00:40:17 --> 00:40:18
			And as we've certainly
		
00:40:20 --> 00:40:25
			emphasize many times, a soft, soft
person having good companionship,
		
00:40:26 --> 00:40:30
			making best use of one's time,
fulfilling the commands of a lost
		
00:40:30 --> 00:40:34
			power either avoiding his
prohibitions and training oneself
		
00:40:34 --> 00:40:39
			to accepting and acquiescing to
the degree of God, in both good
		
00:40:39 --> 00:40:42
			and bad involves head and shoulder
and both he is in difficulty in
		
00:40:42 --> 00:40:46
			both affluence and poverty. You
will find then on the other side
		
00:40:46 --> 00:40:50
			of that in sha Allah, you will
find the law when Muhammad will be
		
00:40:50 --> 00:40:53
			as the Shiva said you'll find
contentment and
		
00:40:54 --> 00:40:59
			know that you're the object of TV,
love, and then pence, your beloved
		
00:41:00 --> 00:41:00
