Big Western and assume that he went ahead and 100 with a only
Dean Soraka Mahajan, the law, legal hacker in a hurry her
lawyers around her in the Hurlock.
To my mother, so Hamdulillah
we are reading from a platform of attorney any one federal law many
recently I've been waiting a Gilani or the law and who and for
over the course of the past
two months or so, we have been reading almost daily, say for
Friday's one discourse or at least discussing one of the discourses
of the 62 that were recorded for the che
in the year 545 And partially in the year five or 46. After the
hitch Have you overloaded Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu wasallam and
as the title suggests,
federal worldwide so Fetta means that which Allah subhanaw taala
has granted you and gives you have openings, while flayed, which has
been sent down, translated as outpourings. And these came from
the heart of CW color's your learning, whose name is perhaps
arguably the most famous name of the great Muslim scholars, an LDS
letter Omar has known. And we see that from his words and as
described by his students that he read, or that he gave these
discourses, not from notes and not from a particular charisma that he
had. But something that stood in his heart so much in the same way,
in the manner that the prophesy said undescribable Buckley said
did too to the mahkamah city of the year, that he had said Delia,
he had said, sincerity in its highest form. And he said about
him. So I said lamb Walker did not supersede you or exceed any of you
in terms of the number of prayers he did extra prayers or fasting or
anything like that, what I can be shaken off is something but rather
by something that stirred in his heart, so the stirring of
something
in the hearts right, which is what this is, what it is, and what
flate openings that allows my gives you understandings. And
throughout these discourses, the chef has kind of outlined for us
the manner by which to do that, and perhaps nearly in every
discourse, he states in one way or the other. And his methodology, if
we were to summarize it is to stick closely to the Quran and the
Sunnah. And to follow it as best as one can make the promises I
sent him your true exemplar Indeed and in speech and to work on his
law has gotten to work on rectifying the inner work time
rectifying the states of your Eman to have to try to engender states
of sabar of patience and up sugar of gratitude over the law of
contentment, so forth and do due to that by submitting to the
decree of Allah subhanaw taala and once you do that, then you will
begin to see that Allah Yejide Vic you will see the divine
act as it
reveals itself within you. And this is usually preceded by what
he calls it further and definite and of Sikka one because it was
you do either Hulk so that you become oblivious and you have
you're good you're being with God and not being with anyone else.
And this is something other other men have spoken about. But the
chef carpets in very accessible, I think in simple terms, but we
should understand.
So we've arrived at the 61st is coarser of 62. So that leaves one
more hopefully inshallah we'll do that in the next session tomorrow,
same time, and we'll begin looking at it from the top where he says
the law and who said I can search
for client now you'd recommend hotter, so tilaka Muna shaytani

it was hot it for us saw the COVID are there for Jimmy and for watery

color? Are you hard to enter a woman and play occluder and how to
get
an alpha to happen when
an announcer in hip hop has ordered you hit Buka. Booker, and
it's a fear and a hustle coming Harley number one.
So let's look at that section first.
So he said after some discussion in response to a question someone
put some about and how water theory translates as notions,
which is serviceable translation, I would also say it can mean one's
thoughts.
You know, the things that kind of pop into your head, as people say
today popularly that call that just popped into my head, I don't
know where it came from. This is called a hotter
and probably contrary to conventional wisdom, you can do
something to
influence the hot water that come to you as the chef is staying
here, at least from the you know, the perspective of Islamic
spirituality. So, yes, there are houses that are necessary here,
right that are fueled by the neffs fueled by the ego fueled by the as
he says a toolbar, well, how about priests, but also there are other
co authors, such as those that come from the angels, those that
help you to think about the ephemera and not the Buddha and
not the dunya. And then those co authors that come directly from
Allah subhanaw taala have consulted so this is what he's
talking about here.
So he says how to explain to you what notions are co authored our
notions come from the devil, the shaytaan natural impulses of
thought that the passions However, and this world your interest or
concern him is whatever is most important to you, hang on this is
a popular thing, hammock hammock, right, what you're going to be
thinking about, what you're going to be contemplating what's going
to keep you up at night, is what's important to you. So, if the dunya
is important to you, what is important to you and vomiting is
important to you, and your 401 k's are boring to you and your stock
equities are boring to you then you stay up at night thinking
about those things.
But if Allah subhanaw taala is important to you, if the asset is
important to you, then your thoughts will more be trained in
that direction.
So, he said your notions correspond in kind to your
interest while it is active. A notion or a halter inspired by the
Lord of truth and how Azerbaijan comes only to to the heart free
from anything apart from him.
So
the heart attack then is unique in that it will not make Musa hum as
I say that was
the start gonna get mixed in there with other harati because when the
hotter that comes, you will know it, it will be clear it will be
precise. And it will be profound and powerful. And it will overcome
anything else that is there. But in order to avail ourselves of
that, of that concept. As I said, one must do some preparatory work
on their knifes and their new foods. So if we are mired in
thoughts of satiation and gathering of things of the dunya,
and
what I'm going to eat next for lunch or for dinner for dessert,
and imagine, you know, we're thinking about those things while
we're offering one of the five prayers, and so forth. So there is
some gehad, right, there's some striving and struggling, that has
to be done in order to avail ourselves of these. What could be
very powerful and true and profound philosophy, right notions
that come from the hack, and usually these type of hot water,
they don't necessarily tell you Oh, give us a cat here a prey
here. Usually those are the ones that come from the angels and the
angels also can can do that. But the one from the Huck from Allah
subhanaw taala will be something like a profound realization,
right, something kind of, you know, like a lightbulb. Epiphany
as they call it.
comes in and you say, Oh, now I understand why this happened and
how this is so and
you know, you'll feel the detachment from the dunya right
and you'll feel a reservoir and a longing for the hero and even
better a longing for
Are Huck along for Allah subhanaw taala
so I felt inspired by the literal truth that comes only to the
heart, free from anything apart from him, as he has said in the
Quran, Allah forbid that we should cease anyone except him with whom
we found our property. And this is what's called a TMS or a chakra.
So that use of light when,
when use of a Salamis young brother than me who was with two
other 12 Brothers, and he wanted to protect him and so he put the
stolen merchandise in that he had in the
camel of when you mean and then they offered themselves instead to
be taken this and this is what disease said, Allah forbid the the
leader Yeah, and Allah forbid that we should seize anyone except him
with whom we found our property. Right. So Allah is only going to
cease are the hotter is going to cease only the heart where the
property is found were the one that is turned towards Allah
subhanaw taala.
If Allah subhanaw taala and his remembrance is dhikr are present
with you, your heart will certainly be filled with His
nearness. And the notion suggested by the devil the passions in this
world will all avoid your company. Right? In the Lucha Libre, Allah
Emery
nothing can compete with Allah subhanaw taala. But if that's
truly what's in your heart, don't worry about shaitan and neffs and
dunya. And how are all these other things, they're nothing they're
not even a an afterthought compared to the heart. But the
issue then is to is to be preoccupied with the heart to be
preoccupied with Allah subhanaw taala to make him the focus of our
aspirations of our dreams of our hopes, and so forth. And the last
one that helps us to get there too. Sometimes he'll deprive us of
things. In order for us to turn back to him. Sometimes, he will
put things on our path to steer us in the right direction. And this
is the life of the believer, right. We I think we talked,
mature if it was this class, one of the Tafseer. But we said that
promise I said them had obvious
career that is recorded in the Sierra. Right, and it talks about
how he
he was born, an orphan his father had passed while he was in the
womb, and then his mother not too long after he was born, and then
he was wet, endorsed by honey Masada in the
outskirts of the countryside of Makkah in Venice. And then he was
raised by his grandfather, who then passed away then his uncle,
then he
was in the curve, his uncle to the maturity grew to be an adult, and
he was a caravan trader, for a while eventually started, formed a
partnership with 16 fit zhurnal They're on hand and they married.
And then the angel came to involve Hara. Then after that, he began
did our first two and a half years kind of surreptitiously then after
that, more openly than more opposition came to him, Mecca, and
then there was the boycott and all evaluation was was avoided, both
in terms of marriage in terms of trading of goods. And then
eventually there isn't came for the permission for some of the
Sahaba to go to Ethiopia, or Abyssinia for for hijra, and then
the hedger of Turin, Medina for all of them after that. And the
province I said was the last one and all the things he did during
the Asia process to avoid capture by the Quraysh. And then he gets
to an Medina and then He forms the nascent community and it's camel
tells them where to stay and
then builds the message and then there's a word it actually and
then fat hammock, the last thing and hedging because without the
last touch, or the farewell hatch, so many people are familiar with
kind of the events of the zero. But corresponding to those events,
there was a spiritual career for the province of Isola. And he
perhaps alluded to this when he said at Devaney, Robbie fascinator
dB, my Lord has inculcated in me up and he is the one the best one
to do that. So up with Allah subhanaw taala. So what we call
ups and downs of life, ebbs and flows, hills and valleys.
Successes and disappointments are successes and setbacks. These are
actually things that will steer you towards a lost power without
it if you see them that way. So everyone in a sense, has a
spiritual career trajectory. And the biggest masiva calamity is not
to recognize that as not to see that and just see it as a
stringing along of random events that are happening in your life
and you're not really sure what to make of it.
Know what you make of it is, what is the spiritual response. So with
every, if you consider all the events in your life as having
their spiritual,
spiritual input impetus to do something, then it then it
warrants a spiritual response. And that's why the spirit
For Masters, they say that if you find yourself in obedience, then
this requires gratitude to Allah subhanaw taala. And if in
disobedience this requires this far, if you're in bidding, if
you're in a tribulation, then this requires some effort and
forbearance. And if you're in an era of blessing, then also Shaka
and admin nearly learn having all gratitude only for last minute and
so forth. So, the believer, then we'll go through these mathematic,
amen, and each time one of these things comes up, especially if
it's a tribulation. Hopefully, Inshallah, they'll deal with it in
a better way than they did with the one previous to it because
now, they've been trained to some degree. And Allah promises us as
we've said, many times when everyone that can be shaman,
hopefully will join in and nobody want to proceed with Samara,
especially the submarine. Surely, surely, you will be tried by loss
of profit, loss of life,
you know, loss of
wealth, all of these things are going to happen. Well, that's
sheer slavery, but give the Beshara the I'm glad tidings, the
good news to the solvating. The ones who are,
who patiently persevere it's probably the best way I can
translate it. And then the A and sort of the Toba code in Canada
while after my washing
with each other
in the afternoon, I have the Enigma lying on soon if I thought
I would you had a visa vie the photographer's saying if you're if
your parents and if your wealth and profits you worried about
losing in your homes and all these things are more beloved to you,
then Allah and his profits and striving and his wife I thought
bustle, right and here, it's like a challenge just then wait, see
how it's going to end up for you at the end with Allah Subhan
Allah. So Allah smart, Allah wants the most important thing to be
him, because he is the one most worthy of being the most important
thing. And then, if that's if he's the most important thing, then he
should be the one who's occupying our thoughts, and taking up the
most space, I would say exclusively in our hearts.
So,
he then says,
there is a kind of notion belonging to this world and a
notion belonging to the hereafter, there is a notion belonging to the
angels the notion of belonging to lower self and absent motion
belonging to the heart, there is also notion belong to the Lord of
truth, it is therefore necessary for you have solid concrete for
one, to get rid of all those other notions to rely on the notion of
the word of truth as if you rejected the notion of the lower
self, the notion of the passions, the devil's notion and notion of
this world, the notion of the hereafter will come to you
then you will receive the angels notion and find the notion of load
of truth and this is the ultimate stage so preceded by a dialogue
will ephra to be connected with fellow so doing a thought and good
deeds and hopefully to have a good free time to have a good ending in
this life which is actually the new beginning in the next and then
if one continues on that way, as mentioned the Hadith puts it The
fall in the effort Hatter, Allah sorta you hate Booker for either
ask them to write then if I love him, going to some of the the
snowmobile was one of them. So we were the one that he had to shoot
behind.
So then when I love him after he's done this thought, in other words,
your style look with this connection to the f0 then the
connection that will be with an Allah subhanaw taala. And that's
what is the sign of that, what is the dilemma that I will be the
hearing by which he hears this eyes by which he sees the hand by
which he strikes the foot, the feet by which he walks and then
the end of that hadith? And if we were to ask me something, I will
surely give it to him. Or them or comment with a right this is the
wilayah? Cobra delissa So this is the the the end stage or highest
stage Wilaya that's what he says here. This is the ultimate stage.
And so when Allah subhanaw taala answers you have to
nominate serif, right? I was not answer to that, because you that
is only going to fall into those things that are completely
completely conforming to the will and the Command of Allah subhanaw
taala. And you will never ask for something that's outside of that,
then there's wildlife out there. So the worry of Alaska is not
going to ask for anything that's outside of those, those confines.
So,
when your heart is sound, then it will pause to ask each notion as
it arises. What kind of notion Are you from what source do you come?
Here's the important part. So we've said this many times it's
not about slaying the neffs and then it goes away and never comes
back. It's going to be there still but now you have your
uh you know, your goggles on or your eyeglasses you could see it
when it's coming, or at least you can recognize it when speaking to
you. So to be able to distinguish between the different howitzer
really is
a tense it's a treasure to have that to be able to discern. So he
says when your heart is sound though, it will pause to ask each
notion as it arises what kind of motion are you right this is the
heart kind of Asahi it's alive, healthy from what source do you
come?
So they will tell him in turn I am the motion of such themselves so
if it's hot enough Sani right are shaytani
you'll be able to recognize it like a mammal Junaid when he was
making wudu and then he got a hotter like, Oh, I didn't go back
and wipe your left arm because you wash your left arm because you
forgot to do it. I said Yeah, man. Oh no, I walked my watch mine
after he knew was from Shaytaan. So he says yeah, man, oh, no,
Chris had one I know I love my work my left arm. So he recognized
that that has a filter shaytani and another name for it. Because
this is the major form comes in is Westwater was was a means to have
kind of obsessive compulsive
cartera notion about things, especially they say in matters of
the heart, especially matters of evolution, and will do and Muslim
and things like that. And but what's what's that can come in
other forms, right? Sometimes it can come even in the sense of
paranoia about people's intentions towards you and things like that,
how they need to send our service. And it's a difficult thing to
overcome. And probably, it can even reach clinical levels that
need some maybe other some form of treatment, but I think it's
at its base at its foundation. It comes from shaitan. And so the
the heart that is sound will be able to recognize Oh, that's from
shaitan Oh, this is from my neffs or this is from the angel or this
is truly from Allah subhanaw taala. Right.
So it will they will tell them in turn, I'm the notion of such and
such I'm a true notion from the truth, part of hot minute. I'm a
loving counselor, the Lord of truth. Allah loves you, so I love
you too, then you will be able to recognize that as well. I am the
ambassador, the severe I am your portion of the spiritual state of
Prophet Woodman Goolwa who's saying this at heart. So the
hotter that's coming to say I am the ambassador from Allah Subhan
Allah Allah Allah, this is what we mean by it's actually a type of
enhance it's a type of inspiration a lot puts this inspiration in
your heart directly
so
let's Kabbalah because this course is kind of a little bit lengthy.
What after it is much longer than this, but we'll try to pick out
the parts
so he talks a little bit about
trial and tribulation, that I think it's important and it's in
its place in our understanding.
So if you're following along, this is page 42. I'll just read it from
the English.
He says there are certain inner matters we'll move about in that
come to be disclosed only after one has attained to the lord of
truth that Huck stood at his tour and met specifically or met
especially selected individuals.
I wouldn't say more than I would say animal feathery dune because
that's the way in the Hadith, Elmo 30. Dune and ADINA, Yanni Frodo
are fairly new and very Lusa Karimova we don't know the ones
who are fully doing they have advanced that have everyone else
the ones who are closest to Allah subhanaw taala. So doing as in
Web, these are all maklumat wilayah
like to up there
who are there at their posts. When you attend to the load of truth,
how can stand waiting was good matters and we've had doubt and
silence. The door will be opened in front of your heart. It will be
drawn in by the one who draws it in. It will be brought nearby the
one who brings it near. It will be lulled to sleep by the one all
Allah subhanaw taala who prepares it for marriage, it will be
anointed by the one who annoys it. It will be adorned by the one who
dwarfs it. It will be delighted by the one who
delights it
it will be kept safe by the one who keeps it safe. It will be
conversed with by the one who converses with it and talk to you
by the one who talks to it
oh you are heedless of bliss and name where are you your hearts are
so far from the state of affairs I am hinting at you imagine this to
be such a simple matter that it can come about for you through
artificial pretense for some not right make sure you got the
wearing the right clothes and got the right hat and you know all set
up so you look like someone who's in that but if you're not actually
there then this is known as the SanMar right pretence
affected simulation or to Calif. Right? So you try to appear and
this was something that happened quite often, especially during the
time of CW clergy learning, people tried to appear like, you know,
very pious, and especially, you know, downtrodden and beseech to
with, you know, with their very powerful spiritual state, so
people can take pity on them and you know, give them money. And
this was a practice condemned by all of the great masters like the
cologix, Lani and like mmm as early,
like secondaria, like a Barbie had me and many, many others condemned
this.
Sheikh Mustafa Bhaktisiddhanta, who was lived in a later period in
the 12th century, even wrote a whole treatise about it about
this.
Sunday, well, it had he called them. So people have
of heresy, because they had this very superficial,
pretentious way of carrying them in their states. And it did a lot
of damage to the,
to the understanding of the soul warfare, unfortunately, we're
still kind of living some of that. So certainly, there is a concerted
agenda in many places, and has been, and, and funded by a lot of
wealth to kind of disparage, to salt water, and the science of it,
and to kind of portray it as some sort of Neo Islamic movement,
which it's not.
It is a discipline, it's a spiritual discipline is the
spiritual discipline of Islam. That's just the name that's
attached to it, we can call it yourself, you can call it a scale,
you can call it other things. But the moon,
what it actually is, is that it is the loop is the essence of the
thing. That's why ever has shattered, he said, Whoever does
not delve into this science of ours, the spiritual discipline of
the soul of
betterhomes, Sidran, Allen Massey,
then they will die in a state and it's like they are dying in a
sinful state. So he meant that you have to think about your flat, you
have to think about your relationship with the last man on
the island, just doing the outward acts of obedience, while it's
required.
It doesn't end there, right? That's just kind of the beginning.
That's the first step. But since we have people who pray and people
basica and who have very bad,
very bad character and,
and do all sorts of things that are
incorrect, then it means that there has to be something that
goes, you know, beyond that. And so those things are a means by
which we can get to that. And this science, the spiritual discipline
of the soul is something that developed over centuries in order
to give us that and then people say, Well, what about the Quran
and Sunnah? Isn't that enough? And why do they have to add all this
stuff?
You know, it's like,
you plant a seedling or sapling, let's say a tree, and you irrigate
it, and it's beginning to grow. And you, you know, you know, these
tedious things take maybe years to grow. So, the first caretaker of
it kind of has to move on and another caretaker comes and they
continue to irrigate, and it continues to grow and grow and
grow. And then someone comes after all of that growth after 100
years, and it ceases, like the Sequoia is like 200 feet high. And
they say, all that's better. Whereas the original was original
sapling. It's supposed to be only this high. It's supposed to be
only three feet high. That's what I want. And what did they do they
chop down the whole tree. And what are they left with? A lifeless
stump? And that's exactly what these people do the left with a
lifeless stump. That's what they made of the deep, just the
lifeless stuff. And
now it's not just once a quiet forest of Sequoia. So yes, there
are developments that happened over the centuries and
understandings that came into play. And if you think all of that
was some accident, that was wrong. And now here we are in, you know,
why would they attribute to the 19th century, the late 18th
century someone living in the middle of
A desert that was of no consequence to all of Islamic
history pretty much all those centuries. Now he got it right.
And he figured it out. And everybody else is in mushrik. And
now that's the team that we call this now.
Nothing could be further from the truth. So
yeah, these things are there and they have been built. And they are
all part of the divine plan. And if you think that you're not, then
you have a pretty bad opinion of Allah subhanaw taala, that he will
allow them to go wrong for the better part of 12 or 13 centuries,
and then
assigned to someone who was just a regular man, basically, in a
mosque in the middle of the desert, to have figured it all for
us. And then all the works of it, because everyone was in the clergy
learning, we're not anywhere, close to the end, all of the
automat formula enduro, Sam from North Africa, I'm from Egypt, and
from greater Syria, and from Baghdad in its heyday, all of that
just doesn't count. And it's kind of
a metaphor for for the world right now. That we would put more stock
and value, and things that are more about spectacle, right, and
we have this
kind of aversion to intellectualism and saying that
things may be they take some training to understand and maybe
take some some effort from you. And if you can't get it, you know,
within three minutes, then you know, maybe it's still worth your
time, and not to just dismiss it outright. But you know, look at
social media and how people communicate. And the decreasing
attention spans a degree I heard some statistic that the average
attention span now, something like eight or nine seconds, you know,
when people are trained on you, and then they're gonna go think
about something else. And then these are the caliber of people
who are interpreting the team for us and telling us that this is
what it means it sort of doesn't mean so.
So, back to the important thing.
So he said, When you attain to the lord of truth and stand waiting
with good manner, we read that part of it. So Oh, you are
heedless of bliss? Where are your hearts are so far from the state
of affairs? I'm hinting at do you imagine this to be such a simple
matter?
Then it can, that it can come about through artificial pretends
to sunlight, as we mentioned, affected simulation to kind of
hypocrisy and if,
in fact, it requires honesty, sit and patient endurance of the
hammer blows of destiny of color added debe, right. So this is part
of your spiritual career, things are going to come out come your
way you're going to be faced with loss, and you're going to be faced
with strife. And he's he's going to go into it more how that looks
like exactly.
So he says, if you are rich and healthy person engaged in
disobedience to the Huck, but you turn to repentance for all your
sins and errors, both those that are obvious and those that are
concealed and you go off into the deserts and the wastelands and
seek the contents of Allah, you will have to experience being put
to the test, you will have to experience trials and
tribulations, your lower self or nefs will demand the worldly goods
and the well being which has been accustomed, but you must not agree
to let it have what it wants. If it can exercise patience, you will
obtain the dominion of both this world and the hereafter. But if it
does not exercise patience, all this will pass it by
penitent you must be steadfast and sincere you must decide together
with your lower self, to let things turn around let the trials
and tribulations come. You must decide together with it that the
Lord of truth and Huck is going to keep you awake all night and make
you go thirsty all day that he will drive a wedge between it and
your family, neighbors, friends and acquaintances that he will sow
hatred of it in their hearts and that none of them will approach it
or come near it. This is possibility and then he brings the
example of Sydney or you or Joe. Surely you must have heard the
story of a job or job or a sedan when Allah subhanaw taala wished
to love him and choose him for his own right? Yes, this will be
enough. See, this is in a special type of love. And that no one but
he should be left with any share in him. How he separated him from
his goods, his family, his children his companions, and made
him live in a shack on top of a garbage dump away from
civilization because of his sickness.
None of his family stayed with him except his wife, who worked as a
servant for people and brought him his food. Then he took away his
flesh and his skin and his strength and left him only with
his hearing his sight in his heart in which he showed the wonders of
His power with Allah subhanaw taala so
He used to remember him with his tongue and would converse with him
intimately with his heart. He would behold the wonders of His
power with his sight. While his spirit his roar came and went.
In his physical frame, the angels would pray for him and come to
visit him. He was cut off from humankind and ends while intimate
friendship was connected with him. That's the play on words are kind
of the ins means people also means intimacy. So he didn't have ins
even have people that he had on spiller.

a sad state of affairs was a mystery, a serum and then in the
end, it came to be public knowledge, said now you the first
part was bitter, but the second became sweet.
Life became pleasant for him in the midst of his misfortune, just
as life became pleasant for Ibrahim alayhi salam in the midst
of his fiery furnace, right when he was cast from the catapulted
into the fire pit that they had prepared for 40 days in a row to
the degree it was so hot, birds would fly over it and they will be
burned to a crisp instantly. But yet when he was cast into the fire
pit, and he was there, it said some of the narration so he stayed
there a month and that he had wounds right with Allah subhanaw
taala because Allah protected him who knew better than wasallam? And
yeah, not only about them, I said Mr. Abraham, it was said to the
fire the cool and be peaceful to Brahim.
So, this was the state of a YouTube this was the state of
Ibrahim. This was also we find this trajectory in the spiritual
career of the Prophet Muhammad Salah Salem. And if the prophets
are exemplars and other ones that we follow then we could also
expect something similar to that.
So in the interest of time and running out there's one other
thing I just wanted to
read
So.
Sorry for the delay just trying to find the section
so, this is page 414.
Right after the verse, He shall not be questioned as to what he
does, but they shall be questioned, is about Allah
subhanaw taala and
submitting to his degree. Then he says,
even if he Allah were to send one of the prophets, MBAs and the
righteous side of him into the fire of *, he would be just
idle. And that would be the telling argument.
Because Medicare does suffer from Wilkie kemei A sharp, the
sovereign or medic
dispenses with his dominion as he pleases as He wills. So, even if
allowed to punish all of us, this would not be one this will not be
unjust, it would be added from a loss. So anything that received
that a bliss is to football and Rama, right, it is grace and it is
mercy of the good that we receive even for the prophets. And this is
what the Prophet SAW Selim said.
He said lions will adipogenic the American entrepreneur dies by the
or deeds, by by the sum of their deeds. They said even New Era
surah Allah is that even me? unless ALLAH encompasses me and
His mercy.
So then he says it is incumbent upon us to say the commander has
told the truth, circle, Amir. And it is not for us to say why and
how could this possibly happen for you to Cordoba to hire? Right? The
circumstances of your life? How did this happen? why this
happened? Sort of, I mean, Allah subhanaw taala on the deck, this
is what he wanted.
Even if it has some basis, injustice and right, such a thing
could never be, and he would never do anything of the kind. In other
words, we shouldn't say that. Right? If whatever Allah chooses,
for us is just one high school at UCLA. Right from the ultimate
divine right? It's all just the whole world as it is, is all just
is there injustice and suffering the world? Yes. But by as much as
it's the glory of God. It's not, it's not injustice from God to us.
That's not true. So human beings can be unjust to one another. And
then we are there are certain
corrections we should take. And that's why we find these
conjunctions in the Quran, about fighting oppression and finding
injustice. But we should never attribute such injustice to Allah
subhanaw taala in the overall scheme of things.
Then he says, listen to me and try to grasp what I have to say. For I
am the humble servant, and will am of those who have gone on before
us. I stand in their presence, I spread out their wares and invite
people to examine them. I never cheat in the process, and not
pretend that they're my own property. I begin by quoting what
they have said. Then I go over from my own point of view
methodology of shit, stop bringing this from out of his own volition,
but this is what he is imbibe. Right, and this is what the people
who want the sapling tree don't understand. And they're bitter.
Right they want the weeds and they don't understand that someone
likes apology and any embodies the Quran and Sunnah he's a walking
around and some, just like his grandfather was sort of like
walking around assume, just like signal saying signal hasn't seen
as NLRB Dean said, No Omar's in the city. They're walking around
and suddenly so what they say what they do is authoritative. Is it
authoritative to the absolute point in the books of fifth? No,
but it's authoritative is taking us taking for us as an example.
And looking at their spiritual careers and their pronouncements.
There's much to be gained by studying that.
So then he says, Let's at Grace baraka from Allah subhanaw taala,
and Allah has bestowed many blessings upon me.
Such as my obedience to the messenger SallAllahu Sallam
and my bed, my filial piety toward my father and my mother.
May Allah have mercy upon them both.
My father abstain from the pleasures of this world, although
we have the power to enjoy them. Why my mother went along with him
in this and approval of what he did.
They are among the people of righteousness, Salah,
religious devotion, Dianna and compassion for creatures, but my
real concern is not with them, not other people. I have come to the
bearer of the message of Rasul and the sender of the message and
Moses Allah, and because of them I prosper.
Every benefit and blessing of mine is with them in their presence
among creatures I wish for no one apart from Hamas or salah, and
among lords, for none but my Lord, as the witches
So may Allah make us of this caliber at least worthy of reading
the words of a person of such caliber Inshallah, named by that
within us? Handy layer of the island
