00:00:13 --> 00:00:15

Am I looking for guidance in the Quran?

00:00:16 --> 00:00:17

Is it really a map for my life?

00:00:17 --> 00:00:19

Like, I can give you an example. A

00:00:19 --> 00:00:21

lot of people looking at what happened in

00:00:21 --> 00:00:23

Gaza today and what had the massacre saying,

00:00:23 --> 00:00:25

how come all those people dying? What is

00:00:25 --> 00:00:28

the why why victory didn't come? Why this?

00:00:28 --> 00:00:30

Okay. Have you ever looked in the Quran

00:00:30 --> 00:00:31

and for example,

00:00:32 --> 00:00:35

start searching about Allah's victory how it is

00:00:35 --> 00:00:37

granted? Have you looked in the Quran why

00:00:37 --> 00:00:37

Allah

00:00:38 --> 00:00:40

allowed troubles and and tragedy

00:00:40 --> 00:00:42

tragedies to happen? Have you looked in the

00:00:42 --> 00:00:45

Quran and you find the guidance on why

00:00:45 --> 00:00:46

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala allowed evil or bad

00:00:46 --> 00:00:49

things to happen in this life? Have you

00:00:49 --> 00:00:51

looked at that concept in the Quran? If

00:00:51 --> 00:00:53

you looked you will find guidance. You know,

00:00:53 --> 00:00:54

you have a struggle in your marriage. Have

00:00:54 --> 00:00:55

you ever looked at the verses of the

00:00:55 --> 00:00:58

Quran talk about marriage, about children, about life?

00:00:58 --> 00:01:01

You see? So that's something that really I

00:01:01 --> 00:01:03

asked, do I really take it as a

00:01:03 --> 00:01:05

guidance? Do I have a Quran as a

00:01:05 --> 00:01:07

guidance when it comes to my manners? For

00:01:07 --> 00:01:09

us as a family, for us as a

00:01:09 --> 00:01:11

community, for us as a country,

00:01:11 --> 00:01:13

for us as a ummah. So guide us

00:01:13 --> 00:01:16

and guide me. Okay. What about my relationship

00:01:16 --> 00:01:18

with Allah? It guide me to know who

00:01:18 --> 00:01:21

Allah is. It guide me. To know what

00:01:21 --> 00:01:23

does Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala loves and likes.

00:01:23 --> 00:01:24

It guides me.
