Waseem Hendricks – Gems From The Quran. Juz 2

Abu Asmaa Alaikum,

a blessed day of Ramadan is past. Subhanallah, the first day we we

are done with it. And Alhamdulillah, Allah subhanahu

wa blessed us so much for we are favored by Allah subhanahu wa

could sit with our family members and have a beautiful meal. Please.

Let us think about those whom Allah subhanahu wa is not favored

that much. They still Subhanallah might be looking for something

just to quench their thirst or fulfill the need of hunger, and

Allah subhanahu wa them. That is why we are here, in order to to

feel that pain with those who are poor and destitute and who don't

have anything in their bellies. And who can they turn to what

Allah, Subhanahu wa and tonight we speak about the gems of the Quran

inshallah to Allah. And we are kindly busy with the second Jews.

And tonight we will be reciting the second Jews inshallah to

Allah. And we will take some lessons in imra from this

beautiful juice of the Holy Quran and the first

exactly what we have discussed. Now we feel for those who are less

fortunate and don't have but Allah subhanaw taala gives us answers

that. How can we deal with this? Allah subhanahu wa says in the

second Jews, yahan ladinah A manustain Obi Sadri wa Sala, and

this is the message that we need to get out there, that if we are

truly the believers of Allah subhanahu wa, let us go out and

teach people the beauty that we can achieve by doing what Allah

subhanahu wa wish from us. And what is that Allah subhanahu wa

guides

us

to say was salah? Allah subhanahu wa,

subhanAllah

Sabah is not something that maybe how we think about it today, just

to sit down and wait for Allah subhanahu wa to act upon our DUA

and our needs. What is Sabbath? Sabba is to persevere. Yes, we are

in the tight situation, but Allah subhanahu wa teach us that you

still persevere for what you desire, still try to sacrifice,

still try to put in every bit of effort

to get the best results out of seeking Allah subhanho wa taala.

State through perseverance. And secondly, what we do is through

salah, through praying to Allah subhanho wa taala. And this was a

great, great lesson that the messenger, sallAllahu Salla, used

to teach us. He taught us that when

need, when he was saddened by anything that happened or occurred

to him, what he did, he turned to Allah subhanahu wa

that we have today is we are fighting with our own nafs and our

desires. So when something happened to us which is not

according to how we wish for it to be, we run to the creation,

instead of the Creator

that is, like Daniel Nigeria, running to those who are the

creation of that being who is the creator of everything, and we

expect them to help us with our situations whereby we everyday

renew our faith by saying, the only one that can assist me, it is

Allah subhanahu wa taala. Every day we seek the guidance from

Allah subhanho wa Taala by saying, Iya Cana Abu. Do alone? Allah

subhanho wa taala, do we worship and You alone? Do we seek Aphra

everyday a Muslim remind himself of that, but somehow we are losing

the plot. We are looking in

and speak to our Creator, Allah subhanahu wa

teach us that ista Eru you seek my assistance through patience and

perseverance. So waiting patiently, patiently is one

aspect, but to persevere and to achieve that goal through striving

into sacrificing and to placing in every effort. And Allah subhanho

wa taala, indeed, he is a Samir al Basir. He is the All Hearing. Is

the all seer. Allah subhanahu wa can see whatever effort and

sacrifices we are making. And Inshallah, to Allah, pray to Allah

subhanahu wa, which is the closest that we can come to Allah

subhanahu wa, by placing our foreheads on the ground, we are at

the lowest point. Dunya, in actual fact, means that low place and

what inappropriate name Allah subhanahu wa given to this world.

Dunya in Allah subhanahu wa, in the highest of places,

the lowest of places, and it is heard our prayers in the highest

of places by Allah Raj. So may Allah accept our efforts and our

sacrifices those who are in need. And Allah subhanahu wa.

Is after this in Allah and Allah subhanho wa Taala is with the ones

who practice patience and perseverance. So Allah is with us.

We are not

alone. Allah subhanahu wa is assuring us that I am with you. I

am with you, with this but I am placing you through this

difficulty in order for you to gain closeness to his Subhan wa

taala, not to run creation, not to run to anything else besides Allah

subhanahu wa, and Inshallah, Allah grant us the understanding of

that.

And further on, Allah subhanahu wa speak how Allah subhanahu wa place

us through our trials and our tribulations. So we already know

Allah subhanahu wa has given us the Go ahead. I'm telling you

that I will test you. Allah subhana wa Taala says, Wala naman,

wakum,

the noon day that we are, Wala naman, wakum. Allah subhana wa

Taala says, most definitely, will I test you? There is no way that

we can explain this, that we will definitely be tested by Allah

subhanahu wa and the amazing thing about our Creator is he is

explaining to us how he will test us through life, through this

limited time that we will spend in this world,

alerts us that if this happens, this is only but a trial for me.

And how many of us are thinking about it like that, Allah

subhanahu wa says, wala nablu, what Shaykh Ibn Al Hof, I will try

you. Will test you with something which is called hope. But when

this, Allah mentioned this, we can only imagine it is not

Allah subhanahu wa testas With just a little bit of a little bit

of fear. Allah,

if we think of anything that we go through in this life, any

difficulty that's upon us in this life, is there anything more

difficult than being an inhabitant of the Hellfire ya rak alhamdul.

That's the ultimate fear, that is the fear of a believer. We do not

want to enter that place, which is called jahannam. We want to be

free from Jahannam and may Allah protect us from the hellfire.

Aminah Rami, what do we ask Allah subhanahu wa will try you. Will

test you with a little bit of

a little bit of hunger. Many of us now, some of us SubhanAllah. We

are Mashallah. Those of us who are fortunate, let us think about it,

because Allah is still favoring us. But there are some of us whose

salaries has been cut, some of us, some

of us don't, don't, don't even receive a reality now.

So what is this Allah subhanahu that are still teaching us and

informing us that this is but a little bit of hunger, a little bit

of hunger Allah subhanahu that test us with because that

is when we the hellfire and we will Besiege Allah subhanahu wa

just a little drop

and our

moment, because there will be absolutely nothing to quench that

thirst, nothing to fill our bellies In order to

our desires of hunger, may Allah protect us from this time in a

mean that is the ultimate fear of joy of hunger.

Wanato Sin Mela, Allah subhanahu

wa as we lost family members through this difficult trial and

time that we are through. But Allah subhanahu wa still teaching

us that

persevere, have patience,

your fruits and your prophets, that you make, there's nothing now

that we can achieve. Why? Because Allah subhanahu wa placed us in a

situation which only Allah subhanahu wa taala can

explain to

Allah gives us glad

Subhan wa Taala says again,

this word Samara Allah mentioned now three times. Allah subhanahu

wa taala says, glad. Tayani said, the one who practice patience and

perseverance, they wait for Allah subhanahu wa to take them out of

the situation, but they still persevere in order to do something

for this is La

Allah give us pardon for what has happened. Now it was just cutting

the transmission, but Inshallah, to Allah, as we've mentioned it,

Allah subhanahu wa mentions in the Quran beautifully, as Allah

subhanahu wa speaks to his mission and Allah gives us hope. Allah

subhanahu wa says, wai there, satella ka Ibadi and NIFA ini

parib.

Allah subhana wa Taala says that when My servants, oh, Rasulullah

said, and uma and 11, when My servants in my.

Worship us. If they ask you about Me,

then I, Allah subhanahu wa himself gives answer. Rasulullah

sallallahu Sallam does not answer this question. Allah subhanahu wa

takes it upon himself. He says,

For in the UK that very certainly, surely I, Allah subhanahu wa,

close to you. I near and in another place in the Quran. The

beautiful

way of the Quran is that the Quran explains itself. Allah subhanahu

wa says that, WA nahi, mukurabu, Ilahi, Muhammad, yunwari.

Allah subhanahu wa taala says that I am closer to you than you

Jaguar,

so I am close imagine Allah subhanahu wa. Is that being that

is teaching us that he is close to us, and we need to ask about Allah

subhanahu wa taala. We need to ask and beseech Allah subhanahu wa,

and not the creation, not turning to anything else besides Allah

subhanahu wa, and he is that being that can give certainty to take us

out of a bad situation and to turn a bad situation in a good

situation. But I mean, and Allah, further down, says ujibu dawata,

dari Dada, Allah, subhana wa Taala is the one who answers the call of

the caller who is saying this, Java commission, if there's

anything that we can be certain of, it is when Allah subhanahu wa

gives us a promise, and Allah subhanho wa Taala says that I will

answer the call of your prayer. If you ask me, I will answer you. And

Allah subhana wa Taala says wakala Rab Bucha uni as the jibak, that

when you ask me, I will respond to you, who is saying this once

again, the Promise of Allah in the Quran, Allah subhanahu wa teaching

us as believers that I am certainly close to you and near to

you, subhanAllah,

for as Taji muli when you will be there along yashun again. And

Allah subhanho wa Taala says, If we follow this path by only

turning to Allah, Subhanahu wa perhaps we will be amongst those

who will be rightly guided. And this is our ultimate aim. We want

to be guided on truth, on the Haqq, on the path of truth. So

Inshallah, if Allah bless us, this is a beautiful Jews that we will

read tonight, these few gems that we have understood, and it's only

about a reminder to us, Masha, Allah, many of us, we've heard

this before, but I think the time is just so relevant for us that we

need to practice patience and perseverance, and we need to know

how Allah subhanahu wa trial and test us through hope and joy,

through fear and through hunger, not similar. If there is a cut

into my finances, this is Allah

subhanahu wa, will lose some of our family members. Inshallah,

Allah is the One Who will save us from them. And then at the end,

Allah subhanahu says, Wabash, Saudi, Allah subhanahu wa,

perseverance. And then the DUA Allah subhanaw taala teach us

through the messenger, Salah in the Quran Allah says, WA Ida, as

Allah is near and close to us who are his worshippers and the true

believers. And inshaAllah yashun, may Allah grant us to be among

those who will be rightly guided. So these few words, let us reflect

upon it and let us inculcate it in our lives that we be the people

who practice patience. Inshallah. Let us not be haughty, and let us

not be as Allah subhanaw taala says that we are in haste. Inside

he is a being that's always in haste. Let us not haste. Let us

know that Allah is in control of every single thing

and Allah subhanahu wa Salaam Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi

wabarakatuh.
