Alhamdulillah, how's
everyone
doing?
Allah, except Amin Iraq. I mean, how fortunate we are that we could
make our Salah in Jamara. And as we hear the messages are going
around, everybody is fearing that tomorrow, subhanAllah, there's
going to be weather. It is unlike weather that we've noticed before,
but this is the decree of Allah. Allah shows us that I'm in control
of everything and you are not in control of absolutely nothing. And
this is how great the power and the might of our beloved Allah is.
And if we cannot see that these trials and these tribulations that
Allah place upon us is trying Allah himself trying to bring us
close to him, then what Jamaat Muslim mean? As we've mentioned in
the past, Allah, Allah brought a pandemic upon us. But look at the
masjid.
If you look at the masjid, it's empty. The masajid should be
filled, because Allah tested us with such such a thing that
happened in the past, when in the time of the Sahaba, it happened.
What happened the Iman Allah raised the Imam zadatum. Iman, can
you imagine, like a few years ago, we said we are going to work. We
are going to work now. We are going to work where, from this
room to that to that room. We're sitting still in our homes, and
we're working aji Bao, time has evolved, right and now
Subhanallah, because of a little bit of weather conditions, what's
happening? We are fearing. We are closing our businesses. We are
closing, okay, I don't know if the businesses are closing, but the
madari is the schools are closing. Our education systems are shutting
down. And what are we going to do? We are just going to sleep late.
Is it true? What are we going to do? We going to do? We're going to
sleep late, SubhanAllah. We have another extra day to sleep late,
but this is time that Allah is teaching us that you must turn to
me.
I want you to turn to me, because this is a sign that I'm giving you
of my power and my might. SubhanAllah. May Allah grant us
the understanding that we should be of those when we yearn we see
of these signs. It brings us closer to Allah. We are in a month
Jamaat al muslimin, where Allah again, Allah is Barakat again in
Allah's gifts, that Allah gift out throughout the years, but
specifically in specific times. We are in such a month where Allah is
going to dish out some of his nafahat, of his openings for us.
How many of us are searching for that openings, but Allah can open
for us, our risk. Allah can open for us, our rahmah. Allah can open
for us that our our family life can become better. Allah can open
for us whereby we can become better fathers and we can become
better mothers and we can become better neighbors. And this is
where we learn from the best of Allah subhanahu wa. He was the
cream of the crop. He they will never, ever be a person like
Muhammad Sallallahu, salaam a GID. And there was never, ever a person
like Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Jamaat al Muslimeen. This
is somebody, and this is a creation of Allah that we should
strive to get to know. How much do we know about him, how much do we
know about his life, how much do we know about his Sahaba, how much
do we know about his character, Allahu, Akbar, jamata, Muslim.
Mean, I promise, and I always when I have a conversation with those
who are not Muslim, I say, Wallahi you. You think every thought that
you have, but I guarantee you, and I challenge you read about
Muhammad Sallallahu, alayhi, wa sallam, and learn about Muhammad
Salla Salam. I promise you, and I challenge you that you will get to
love this person, this person called Muhammad, even though you
don't believe in him, but if you read about him, you will get to
love him. Look at the Guinea's Book of World Records. A non
Muslim Michael hearty, had to come about, and he had to do a survey.
And what did he say? Who is the most influential person in the
whole entire world for all times? He's not a Muslim. He is not a
Muslim. He is a non Muslim. By the way, he's a Christian. He was
massacred by the Christians afterwards. You know, he was
attacked. Because how can you make a statement like that? You should
have said Jesus. He said, Even if I can't, I've researched Jesus,
and I've researched Muhammad, and Muhammad is the greatest
individual ever to have walked the surface of the earth or what he
have achieved. Bucha Allah. What does Allah say? Rasul assalam,
saying in Allah, DEEN beraja al fawjim, that when Allah went to
assist his, DEEN Allah will assist his. Deen Allah don't need us.
Allah will even use the fujar, the people who transgress against
Allah.
AR, the criminals Allah will use to aid Allah's Deen *. These
are people that commit Sheik with Allah every day. They prove that
Muhammad SAW is the most influential person who ever walked
the surface of the Earth. This should teach us a lesson,
whether is shaking us where there should be Allah, Abu. Opportunity
for us to turn to Allah. Every opportunity that arise should be
in the Muslim's life. This is an opportunity for me to turn to
Allah and gain closeness to him. Jala jalalu, because this is his
signs. This is his signs that he shows us to grow closer to Him.
Jala Jalal fear Allah. We are in the month of Muharram, Jamaat al
Muslimeen, and say, na Jabir, radlowah, Anu Rasul, Salam sale.
He mentions, whoever expands his expenditure on his family on the
day of Ashura. And this is important. You know, how many of
us? We give so much out there, we are willing to spend everywhere.
We outreach and everywhere. But when it comes to our own
households, Allah, we are the most. We are the buchala. We are
extremely stingy. When it comes to our family members, your wife ask
you for something now stop. Nobody's
only 10 grand for bread. Oh, I bought bread yesterday, but you've
got five kids like Michelle
in one meal, the bread is done. Mahan, Allah,
three brother,
but we need to expand and expenditure give inshallah in the
Cause of Allah. Right on the day of Ashura, Allah will increase his
sustenance for the rest of that year. Can you imagine now how much
faith do we have? In the words of the best of Allah's creations,
Allah, He says, spend that day on your family. Take your family out,
buy toys for your kids, right? Buy food for the home, buy and treat
your wife, go to a restaurant, go and spend on your family. And the
nice thing about spending on the family is what it is not only a
sadaqah on the day, spending on the family, it's a sadaqah on the
day. And what do you benefit? Also, sila to Rahim, bringing
family members together, alright, creating a love and developing a
love among your family members. That is amazing. And ALLAH
messenger says, If you spend on the family, you get two rewards,
not only one. If you give sadaqah outside, it's just a charity that
you give and you will be rewarded for the charity. But if you spend
in your family, you get the reward of a charity, and you get the
reward of Salat or Rahim. And the one who makes Salat or Rahim Allah
makes Allah with him. Allah join times with that person. So the
moment you give to your family, no, you're making Salat or Rahim,
Allah, at that moment also bonds with you and joins with you,
because Allah wants you close to him. Allah allow us the
understanding of this hadith. So you said that I have been doing
this for 50 to 60 years, and have always seen the benefit in it.
Sofi anim is one of the soon prominent one who is
one of the narrators of a Hadith from the Prophet Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wasallam. He says that I've done this listening
to Rasulullah that spend on the day of Ashura, and for 50 to 60
years of my life, I've done this, and I've never been disappointed.
I've seen the benefit of this. Allahu, Akbar. How many times in
the year we cry to Ali Allah, akanta, don't get it. Think about
it. Did I spend on Ashura? Because Allah promised, through the words
of Muhammad, saw, if you spend on that day in the family, I will
sort out your sustenance for the entire year. So this year, how do
you spend? You don't spend because Mawlana said, Don't do that. And
it's not right. You spend because I want to spend for the sake of
Allah and my family. Be genuine about it. Don't spend your
Swahili. But if I must spend because malakasi, no, not like
that. Spend because of the words of the soul. SallAllahu, sallam,
because you have faith in your Creator that he is going to open
up my pathway for the entire year, and may Allah accept it from us.
Inshallah, BarakAllahu, Allah, bliss tomorrow we have inshallahud
will give us a talk tomorrow. Is one of the young graduates of
manata Karan school. MashaAllah, only last year is fresh tomorrow,
tomorrow, madrasa Inshallah, when His madrasa again. Allah Blish
