00:00:02 --> 00:00:14
			Muhammad, sallAllahu, alayhi wa
Allah Ali. He was Abu asmaareen. I
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:15
			greet
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:19
			everyone with the most beautiful
greeting, the greeting of Islam,
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:22
			as well as the greeting of Jannah,
assalamu, Alaikum, wa
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:26
			rahmatullahi, taala, Barakatuh.
And once again, welcome back to
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:30
			our series in preparation for the
month of Ramadan. And this will be
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:36
			our third episode inshallah. And
today, as we know that we are on
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:39
			the best of days, the days when
the messenger, sallAllahu alay wa
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:43
			sallam has related to us that
there is no better day when the
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:48
			sun rise, except that this is the
day of Juma. And Inshallah, we
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:53
			should still try to perform all
the necessary Sunan that which the
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:57
			messengers of Allah, Ali wasallam
used to do on a Friday before him
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:01
			going to Jumaa. It does not mean
that we are not physically able to
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:05
			go to the masajid in order to
perform our Jumaa that we we
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:09
			should neglect these type of Sunan
inshallah to Allah, and some of
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:13
			them are still take a beautiful
bath before we are going to
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:17
			perform our dur Salah at home,
still make the DUA and cry to
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:21
			Allah, Subhanahu wa forgiveness
and Inshallah, hope to find that
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:26
			hour which is in the day of juarah
will definitely answer our
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:31
			prayers. And thirdly, inshaAllah,
we will still read surah Kahf
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:35
			before the what of Jummah enters
upon us. May Allah, Subhanahu wa
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:39
			grant us the ability in sha Allah
to perform all these beautiful
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			Sunan that the messenger,
sallAllahu, alayhi wa sallam has
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:45
			guided us through his beautiful,
beautiful example. Amin ya rabal
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:50
			alameen. So yesterday, we were
reminded about fasting inshallah
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:54
			and preparation towards the month
of Ramadan. Today, Inshallah, we
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:59
			will be focused upon. We will be
focusing upon the Quran and the
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:02
			recital of the Quran and and that
the Alok, the relationship that we
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:05
			should have with this Quran, and
indeed, some of the most beautiful
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:09
			advices that Allah subhanahu wa
gives us is where Allah subhanahu
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:17
			wa says In the Quran, by their own
regime, shahruna, ladi,
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			Quran, and
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:24
			Huda Lin si
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:32
			wabana, Huda well for con sadaqah,
Lamar alim, so beautifully, Allah
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:37
			Subhan wa Taala reminds us that
this Holy Quran, the Qalam and the
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:41
			speech of Allah subhanahu wa, the
Constitution of the believers. It
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:46
			has been revealed in this holy
month of Ramadan. So there must be
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:49
			a connection SubhanAllah. And what
is that connection Allah?
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:54
			Subhanahu, WA Allah says that it
is hudalinas. It is a guidance to
		
00:02:54 --> 00:03:00
			mankind, a clear guidance, a
criterion to as SubhanAllah. And
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:04
			we should take heed of the fact
that Allah subhanahu wa is trying
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:09
			to teach us a lesson from this
ayah. And what is that? If we just
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:12
			look into the life of the
messenger Salam, can we but
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:16
			imagine that first time that wahi
was revealed to him, he saw the
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:22
			angel Jibreel alaihi salatu
wasalam entering upon him, telling
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:27
			him Iqra, Bismillahi, khalaq,
khalaq al Insan, I mean alach, IQ
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:34
			war of Bucha, ramullahi, Alam Abu
qalam, Alam al Insan, Allah. Can
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:38
			we imagine that moment? And this
can be a moment for us as well,
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:42
			when we now connect or reconnect
with the book of Allah subhanahu
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:47
			wa, as this was a turning point in
the life of the messenger sub
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:50
			Allah wa ala wa salam, the one
that we claim to love. This is the
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:54
			time when he saw Allah wa ala wa
salam, had to go out. And now he
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:58
			need, needed to preach to
everybody about the laws of Allah
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:03
			subhanahu wa. But firstly, what
was more important than that, he
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:06
			had to inculcate that in his own
life. So here we have an
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:12
			opportunity. The Quran is with us.
It has been mashallah compiled in
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:16
			such a way that it is so easy for
us to read it from cover to cover.
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:19
			We Inshallah, the Allah can take
Ibrahim listen from this. We May
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:24
			we take one ayah a day and we read
it, and we try to implement that
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:27
			into our lives. And a little story
that I want to narrate about one
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:31
			of the greatest Sahaba that walked
on the surface of the earth. It is
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:35
			Omar RadiAllahu Taala Abu all of
us might think that all of the
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:39
			Asham of Rasulullah Ali wasallam,
that they were Hafid Quran, but
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:43
			let me tell you a story about Omar
RadiAllahu Taala Anhu. His life
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:47
			was such that whenever an ayah was
revealed and it was told by the
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:50
			messengers Allah, Ali was telling
them to the Sahaba RadiAllahu
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:54
			Taala Anhu. Omar RadiAllahu Taala
anhu, he was one of those amongst
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:59
			the Ashab that first used to
Subhanallah read the ayah. Then
		
00:04:59 --> 00:04:59
			he.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:04
			Memorize the ayah, then, before
anything else, before commencing
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:08
			with the next ayah, he will first
apply that within his own life.
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:11
			And that is, this is this is so
important for us that whatever the
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:15
			Quran should not just be a ritual
whereby we read it from cover to
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:18
			cover, but we should try to
understand this Quran. We should
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:21
			try to connect to this Quran
because it is rabbula, is rabbula,
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:25
			is that I, who is Subhan Allah,
connecting to us, trying to teach
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:29
			us something, trying to let us
live a righteous life, trying to
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:32
			live such a life that he, subhana
wa taala, will be pleased with us,
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:35
			and He will enter us into Paradise
because of our connection with
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:38
			with this Quran. Let us not take
it lightly. The Quran has been
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:41
			revealed in the month of Ramadan,
which is ahead of us. This is a
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:45
			preparation for us in the month of
shayaban. Let's have a Taal look.
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:48
			Let's have a connection with the
Quran. Inshallah to Allah, and by
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:51
			having a connection with us,
Quran, now, it will make things
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:54
			easy for us in the month of
Ramadan. I mean, I mean, so this
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:58
			is the day of Jumuah, a blessed
day. It has taken inshallah to
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:01
			Allah some time to spend it with
the Quran. And what better ways to
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:04
			follow the Sunnah of the Prophet
sallallahu, sallam, if we are able
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:09
			to, let's read the entire Surak.
If we are not able to, let's read
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:12
			a few ayat of it. Inshallah,
there's a narration which state
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:16
			that if you read the first 10
days, the first 10 verses of
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:21
			Surah, Kahf, or the 10 last verses
of Surak, and what will happen? We
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:24
			will be saved on the day when that
jail will enter upon us,
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:31
			subhanAllah, the fitna of that
jail. So let Allah subhanahu wa
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:36
			striving in order to achieve that
pleasure of Allah subhanahu wa.
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:40
			And if we are going to do this,
Allah subhanahu wa, grant us His
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:43
			pleasure, and we, inshaAllah
Allah, will be amongst those who
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:51
			are successful. Amin, I mean, for
JazakAllah who ashall, mean masala
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:54
			mu Alikum, warahmatullahi, taala,
wabarakatuh, Abu.
