00:02:24 --> 00:02:33

00:02:34 --> 00:02:35

00:02:44 --> 00:02:46
			All these words you just said?
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:57
			It doesn't matter how many words? How many different words, how many different languages? How many,
many mix voices together.
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:01
			They're all heard by Allah.
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:06
			And they will or will receive by
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:19
			Allah Subhana Allah to Allah La, La La sua. These mixed voices are not confused. He can hears each
and every one of you.
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:25
			No matter how loud the other person is, or no matter how so for
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:33
			the moment you say the moment you pronounce it, the moment you call upon him. He's listening to you.
		
00:03:34 --> 00:04:04
			This lesson was well known, well understood by the messengers of Allah Subhana. Was that what I want
you today to walk out of this? these talks that you hear my talk and the chef Tavistock. And brother
man shala seminar man start, I want to if you can walk with one single lesson, it will be a great
lesson that you don't ever underestimate the power of your drought.
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:22
			Don't ever underestimate the power of your drought. Yes, I'm going to share with you some of what
Moses said, and some of our profit sets as well you will hear in this room in this lecture. But let
me start with sharing with you with a true story of a historian brother,
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:59
			who told me the story about him a whole lot. It is an heirarchy old man was in Methodist, basically
treated for cancer. This era, the old man said he's very old man. He passed away a few years back.
He said way long time ago. I used to be in Iraq, an owner of a big farm and I was like a landlord.
The people who work the farmers who work for me, they are like a slave to me. And it was very nasty,
aggressive person.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:43
			greedy care nothing about to anyone except to my own self or my family or my wealth and out to
double my money. One time a farmer came was brought to me in front of me by my bodyguards, and they
were dragging him and his daughters and his wife was crying right behind him, begging me to forgive
the farmer because he was about to confiscate all his land and kick him out because he didn't pay
the taxes that I have put unjustly unfairly on those farmers farmers. So the man said, I asked you I
am in your house, and I asked you please for the sake of Allah, let me go.
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:54
			He said, For some reasons, these words and he said, for the sake of Allah, let me go moved my heart
and he said, You know what? You're free to go a
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:59
			few years after this incident, he said, I got paralyzed.
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:43
			The doctors couldn't figure out what's the reason I couldn't stand down to my feet. I was in a
wheelchair. So I decided to come back to my Lord, to go back to a lot. And I was taking to market
for the first time in my life to go to Macau. At that time, in the old days, and Mecca didn't have
wheelchair for those who make Polo I was carrying that is like, like, it's like a box. They carry
the people on their shoulders, and they go off around the cabinet carrying them. So when he entered
a cabinet, when they entered the mustard, the mecca of maca. And so the beautiful cabin in front of
me, tears started coming down.
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:51
			I can control them. He said, Chef, and I start crying. And I told that he would put me down.
		
00:06:52 --> 00:07:00
			Then he said I was very ignorant. But I was very sincere at that moment. I said, Oh Allah.
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:06
			You remember, see how it is? That's how he said,
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:08
			you remember
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:17
			when that old farmer came to my house, and he was carried by my buddy guards.
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:25
			And he asked me for the sake of you to let him go free
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:29
			and attend to only for you.
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:33
			I'm now in your house.
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:41
			And I'm asking you to sit to me free and let me walk on my feet and make my own.
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:49
			He said what law he or she will law he or she I made up the law for walking on my feet.
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:54
			I like cure me at that point.
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:15
			It
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:17
			mean
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:19
			first of all,
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:37
			in
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:10
			enter
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:59
			the city and intention basically bites people and found inside the city two people fighting one from
his own people a Jew like Musa and another Egyptian person. And basically he asked him for how the
Jews so Mussa standard with his own people against the Egyptian soldier, and he has an he basically
punch that addiction soldier one punch and unhinged unintentionally. He killed the soldier. He
realized immediately that he lined up immediately with his own people. I guess the soldier without
asking without clarification, and he killed someone with this massive power that a lot of giving it
to him sir
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:01
			He immediately said
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:58
			to NFC, Oh Allah I have, basically Oh Allah, I have wrong myself, my Lord, indeed I have wronged
myself, so forgive me, and he forgave him. Indeed he is the Forgiving and the merciful. Then he
said, My Lord, for for, for the forum. Then he said, for the favor you bestowed upon me, I will
never be an assistant to any criminals again. This is just one simple one sample of the draft of the
publication of Moosa. When he did draw him he needed to rush to LA and he said, Oh Allah, forgive
me. Oh Allah, I asked you forgiveness. Don't ever don't ever, ever. Look how great a sin that you
can make anything. You know what, there is no way for me to survive. No. Always looking at the
		
00:10:58 --> 00:11:12
			greatness of Allah subhanho wa Taala the greatness of the forgiveness of Allah subhanaw taala like
what you just exercised right now? I want hears you don't ever say, Oh, you know what? How he will
care about you? Yes.
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:40
			Subhan Allah, Allah loves you as much as you ask him. The more you ask of him, the more he loves
you. And the more you avoid that and you still do that, the more Allah Subhana Allah Whoa, or not
care about you in the La Jolla, Manhattan? Allah subhanaw taala will not care about you. The moment
you don't care about him, the moment you don't turn to him.
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:47
			What do you guys think of someone who keep asking you asking you asking you asking me asking me?
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:49
			That sounds like mine.
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:52
			I'm not gonna say
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:56
			what do you think I was gonna say my daughter, okay.
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:09
			So, someone keeps asking you asking what is a collage? You know what I'm gonna give it to you. I
have one of my daughters. That's her technique.
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:47
			She keeps asking, asking, assisting until I said, okay, but I give it to the war without
frustration. That's human beings. But that's what's different between the creator and the creation.
We're stingy, we're limited in our power hour will never be bored with your request. I will never
say you know what, this too much. That there is an open line between you and Allah. When Allah wants
to talk to us. He sent us a revelation books. And when we want to talk to him, we just make you out.
And it is so beautiful. There is nothing between us and him.
		
00:12:48 --> 00:13:03
			There is nothing between us. It's an open line. You are online, open line 24. Seven, you never call
upon a law. And there is an angel said, Please hold on you and some of your questions, the order
processing.
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:18
			You never hear that. You will never hear that you will always have an open line with any given time.
It's never too late. It's never too early. It's never ever was too crowded.
		
00:13:20 --> 00:14:02
			This power, use it in your advantage. Use it in your advantage. And listen to what he said in the
MDC Allah because of the favor You have bestowed upon me. I promise you, I will never ever be again
an assistant for criminals. When you do a crime when you when I mean by crime a sin or you do wrong
to yourself or to someone else. Ask us forgiveness. And in order for your forgiveness to be
accepted, as you heard earlier, say, make the promise that you will not do that again. And if you do
it make another promise. She I said this too many times the profits or someone said that's the
moment that's the believers. He makes a promises and break the promises. But when you make the
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:21
			promise, make sure that your intention is really to commit to it. But if you became weak, don't say
this hypocrisy, because hypocrites. They don't ever have a pure intention when they repent. But you
have that pure intention when you're talking about some kind of what God
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:25
			What am I want to
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:29
			be
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:10
			First up on
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:46
			when he went towards the city of meridian and approach the will of Madrid he said no a lot guide me
to the straight to the right path.
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:48
			He said
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:58
			how many of you guys say that a lot? How many of you guys you always say, Oh Allah guide me towards
this girl
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:03
			guides me to work this way or like guide me to the strict path
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:47
			is it the habit that you develop in your life? When you take your exam when you are about to make an
important decision when you are about to make something important in your life do you really ask him
to guide you to the street but in every small little things even he's about to decide this route or
that route? He said oh like guide me to the striker. He saw these two ladies on the side he
basically gave them he helped them by providing water for them. Then he said off any law on indeed
in great need for your favor.
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:59
			Mr. Eiland creaking deep, um for whatever good you would send down to me in need.
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:09
			The bass said he was super old days without food. At that moment I was so hungry.
		
00:17:11 --> 00:18:00
			You ask Allah subhanaw taala always when you are in need. And he asked Allah Subhana Allah to give
him the goodness and look to very general. That's another thing you learn when you ask us for
something big and general. Besides the small things well, a lot of time we think that you know what,
I shouldn't This is too big for me. No, it's not. It's never too big. It's not too big for Allah
subhana wa to add. The prophets are seldom taught us that whenever we ask Allah paradise, we don't
ask him the lowest we asked him what the highest you remember our bucket what is our bucket request
was to enter Paradise from how many gates? How many gates, anybody knows eight gates from how many
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:10
			gates enter one gate, you will not enter from a what he's gonna have one hand from a gate and one
leg from another gate is gonna come in and out.
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:15
			That's one gate, but he won't he asked him for the highest.
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:23
			It's not quite as far as we want to intergender from the window underneath the game through us
anyhow anywhere.
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:31
			The two hour is to be general, in another word, I will tell you this, this is maybe resonate with
you more.
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:34
			Always make a bold
		
00:18:36 --> 00:18:46
			Can you remember that bolt? When you ask us something big and huge general data will give you when
you ask them that you ask the parent.
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:53
			Anyway, he asked us to come look at how bold This is, when I must
		
00:18:54 --> 00:19:00
			have basically made a choosing to be a prophet and messenger what he said what he said
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:02
			was
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:21
			he requested for his brother how to be a prophet how gold can be more than he asked for someone else
to be choosing as a prophet with him.
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:27
			All I want my brother to be a prophet to to be an assistant to me.
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:41
			Anyway, there's so many examples about the life of Musa alayhis salam that we can learn from. But if
I will conclude my talk today to you
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:46
			with something that I personally learned
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:52
			while I'm looking over all the drama of Mossad is now
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:55
			used
		
00:19:56 --> 00:20:00
			as a weapon to fight the problems and
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:03
			The challenges, the key has to go through it in life.
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:51
			That connection that you know that Allah beside you, every time you go through hardship, every time
you go through a calamity, every time there is a challenge in your life, you will know that Allah
subhanho wa Taala is beside you with you supporting an ad. Every time remember that, that not only
Musa but I'm just displaying Musa because that's the one I was asked to talk about. Remember every
challenge that Musa face when he was in the end of the land, the front of the sea, about to meet
Pharaoh and his people, even his mother, when she put him when she was from the beginning, she made
the saving. And every challenges that he faced in his life, he always faced this with a drought with
		
00:20:51 --> 00:21:39
			asking Allah subhanaw taala that makes you feel there is so much hope there's so much strength,
there's so much power in your site, because you're dealing with a loss of Hana with the most
powerful scanner without without Toby cannot survive. Without Toby you cannot you cannot make it. I
remember once reading an experiment in the lab about too much. They put them in a in a in a
basically water and you know they don't swim. So one of them in a very dark, basically, in a very
dark box, he that must drown in 30 minutes, while another one there is an exit and there is light on
that exit, you know how many hours not minutes, hours that might survive 36 hours kept swimming
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:42
			toward that exit that he will never reach.
		
00:21:44 --> 00:21:48
			From that descent and ever there is a hope there is always a string.
		
00:21:49 --> 00:22:04
			There is always a strip. And there is nothing can put more hope in your heart than it was a kind of
a town. So if you are going through a hardship and a calamity and a challenge that's in your school,
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:43
			it is because maybe a job that you're looking for, or maybe because parents are giving a hard time,
maybe a spouse giving you a hard time, maybe your teen boys are giving you a hard time maybe your
dad or mother giving you a hard time. Maybe it's a sin that you cannot get rid of. Maybe it's a bad
habit that you can get rid of. Maybe it's a love that you cannot fulfill in the right way. And it's
a big challenge for you to overcome that challenge. I'm telling you the way to overcome this is by
using this powerful weapon which is which is Allah subhana wa tada have given care bestowed on you.
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:47
			Qatada once said,
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:51
			there is three things great, we're giving to this.
		
00:22:52 --> 00:23:07
			First one, it's not you will not find it in any other book. He said, The first one that Allah
subhanaw taala told the prophets before magic Allah, Allah Allah, Allah did not put you in any
hardship. But for us as as Muslims.
		
00:23:11 --> 00:23:27
			You as a nation, you will not be put in a hardship and previous nation. That's the first second one.
He said previous nation they were told, the Prophet asked me and are answering for our nation, Allah
said to all of us, asked me and I will answer you
		
00:23:31 --> 00:24:07
			and for the nations before us, to the prophets, you witness against our witness over but for us our
said that we are all witnesses over others. That's an honor. And part of it that Allah honored you
and give you that freeline free access to illustrata use it and make a good use of it. May Allah
subhanaw taala to accept or malice pantalla to accept from us. Finally, just just for the record
Moosa, what language you use to speak
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:25
			Hebrew your shoe was he making to an Arabic was he didn't when he made that I made it an Arab? You
think so? No, he doesn't know what's Arabic is. So don't think you have to make your own Arabic.
		
00:24:34 --> 00:24:59
			And in order for your forgiveness to be accepted, as you heard earlier, make the promise that you
will not do that again. And if you do it make another promise. She I said this too many times the
prophets of Salaam said that's the movement. That's the believers. He makes a promises and break the
promises. But when you make the promise, make sure that your intention is really to commit to it.
But if you became weak
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:12
			Don't say this hypocrisy, because hypocrites, they don't ever have a pure intention when they
repent. But you have that pure intention when you repented to Allah subhana wa.
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:14
			When I'm
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:19
			on,
		
00:26:00 --> 00:26:01
			first up on
		
00:26:13 --> 00:26:13
			in
		
00:26:27 --> 00:26:37
			when he went towards the city of meridian and approach the will of Matthew, He said, Oh Allah guide
me to the straight to the right path.
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:39
			At least
		
00:26:41 --> 00:26:50
			how many of you guys say that a lot? How many of you guys you always say, Allah guided me towards
this corrupt
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:51
			guides me to
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:54
			guide me to the straight path?
		
00:26:56 --> 00:27:33
			Is that the habit that you develop in your life? When you take your exam, when you are about to make
an important decision, when you are about to make something important in your life? Do you really
ask Allah to guide you to the street but in every small little things, even he's about to decide
this route or that route? He said, Oh, like guide me to the street now. He saw these two ladies on
the side he basically gave them he helped them by providing water for them. Then he said, Oh Allah,
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:38
			Allah, indeed in great need for your favor.
		
00:27:43 --> 00:27:50
			creaking deep, I'm for whatever good you would send down to me in need.
		
00:27:53 --> 00:28:01
			The boss said he was super old days without food. At that moment, was so hungry.
		
00:28:02 --> 00:28:50
			You ask Allah subhanaw taala always when you are in need. And he asked Allah Subhana Allah to give
him the goodness and look to very general. That's another thing you learn. When you ask us for
something big and general. Beside the small things as well. A lot of time we think that you know
what, I shouldn't This is too big for me. No, it's not. It's never too big. It's not too big for
Allah subhanho wa Taala the prophets are seldom taught us that whenever we ask Allah paradise, we
don't ask him the lowest we asked him what the highest you remember our bucket what is our bucket
request was to enter Paradise from how many gates? How many gates anybody knows. Eighth gates from
		
00:28:50 --> 00:29:01
			how many gates will enter one gate you will not enter from a what he's gonna have one hand from a
gate and one leg from another gate is gonna come in and out.
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:06
			That's one gate, but he won't he asked him for the highest.
		
00:29:07 --> 00:29:15
			It's not like us if we want to intergender from the window underneath the game threw us anyhow
anywhere.
		
00:29:16 --> 00:29:21
			The two hour is to be general. In another word, I will have to tell you this, this will
		
00:29:23 --> 00:29:25
			always make a bowl.
		
00:29:27 --> 00:29:33
			Can you remember that bowl? When you asked us something big and huge general.
		
00:29:34 --> 00:29:37
			data will give you when you ask them that you ask the parent.
		
00:29:39 --> 00:29:44
			Anyway, he asked us to come look at how bold This is, when I must
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:52
			have basically may choose him to be a prophet and messenger what he said what you said to Allah
		
00:30:01 --> 00:30:12
			He requested for his brother how to be a prophet. How gold can be more than he asked for someone
else to be choosing as a prophet with him.
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:18
			Oh, I want my brother to be a prophet to, to be an assistant to me.
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:32
			Anyway, there are so many examples about the life of Musa alayhis salam and his to add that we can
learn from. But if I will conclude my talk today to you
		
00:30:33 --> 00:30:37
			with something that I personally learned learn
		
00:30:39 --> 00:30:43
			while I'm looking over all the drama of Mossad is now
		
00:30:45 --> 00:30:46
			used
		
00:30:47 --> 00:30:55
			as a weapon to fight the problems and the challenges. The team has to go through it in life.
		
00:30:56 --> 00:31:40
			Without the connection that you know what Allah beside you, every time you go through hardship,
every time you go through a calamity. Every time there is a challenge in your life, you will know
that Allah subhanho wa Taala is beside you with you supporting you an ad. Every time remember that,
that not only Moosa but I'm just saying, because that's the one I was asked to talk about. Remember
every challenge that Moosa face when he was in the end of the line, the front of the seat about to
meet Pharaoh and his people, even his mother, when she put him when she was from the beginning, she
made the vow that I was saving. And every challenges that he faced in his life, he always faced this
		
00:31:40 --> 00:32:30
			with a drought with asking Allah subhanaw taala that makes you feel there is so much hope there's so
much strength, there's so much power in your site, because you're dealing with a loss of Hana with
the most powerful scanner without, without Toby cannot survive. Without Toby you cannot you cannot
make it. I remember once reading an experiment in the lab, about two mice, they put them in a in a
in a basically water and you know they don't swim. So one of them in a very dark, basically, in a
very dark box, he that must drown in 30 minutes, while another one there is an exit and there is
light on that exit, you know how many hours not minutes, hours that might survive 36 hours kept
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:33
			swimming toward that exit, that he will never reach.
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:39
			From that descent and ever there is a hope there is always a string.
		
00:32:41 --> 00:32:55
			There is always a strength. And there is nothing can put more hope in your heart than also kind of
without. So if you are going through a hardship and a calamity and a challenge that's in your
school,
		
00:32:56 --> 00:33:35
			it is because maybe a job that you're looking for, or maybe because parents are giving a hard time,
maybe a spouse giving you a hard time, maybe your teen boys are giving you a hard time maybe your
dad or mother giving you a hard time. Maybe it's a sin that you cannot get rid of. Maybe it's a bad
habit that you can get rid of. Maybe it's a love that you cannot fulfill in the right way. And it's
a big challenge for you to overcome that challenge. I'm telling you the way to overcome this is by
using this powerful weapon which is which is Allah subhana wa tada have given you have bestowed on
you.
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:38
			Qatada once said,
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:42
			there is three things great, we're giving to this.
		
00:33:43 --> 00:33:58
			First one, it's not you will not find it in any other book. He said, The first one that Allah
subhanaw taala told the prophets before magic Allah Allah, Allah did not put you in any hardship.
But for us as as Muslims.
		
00:34:02 --> 00:34:18
			You as a nation, you will not be put in a hardship and previous nation. That's the first second one.
He said previous nations they were told, the Prophet asked me answering for our nation, Allah said
to all of us asked me and our entry
		
00:34:22 --> 00:34:50
			and for donations before us it was said to the prophets, you witness against our weakness over but
for us our said that we are all witnesses over others. That's an honor. And part of it that Allah
honored you and give you that free live free access to our last data use it and make good use of it.
May Allah subhanaw taala to accept or
		
00:34:52 --> 00:34:58
			to accept from us finally, just just for the record, Lucia, what language you use to speak
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:00
			Hebrew
		
00:35:02 --> 00:35:16
			was he making an Arabic was he didn't when he made that I made it an Arab. You think so? No, he
doesn't know what's Arabic is. So don't think you have to make your own Arabic
