Koli Subhanallah, enter Ali mu Hakim. I greet everyone with the

00:00:26 --> 00:00:29

most beautiful greeting, the greeting of Islam, as well as the

00:00:30 --> 00:00:32

greeting of Jannah. Ashamed

00:00:34 --> 00:00:40

Allah subhanahu wa be in this beautiful, auspicious month of

00:00:40 --> 00:00:46

Ramadan, be alive, returning to Allah subhanahu wa, finding

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

ourselves who we truly are, SubhanAllah. Oh, yeah, we

00:00:49 --> 00:00:53

complained about time whole year. We complain about we don't have

00:00:53 --> 00:00:57

time to do such and such an action or such and such of worship. We

00:00:57 --> 00:01:02

can't attain any closeness to Allah subhanahu wa because of time

00:01:02 --> 00:01:06

that is so restricted and our lives are so busy, Allah subhanahu

00:01:06 --> 00:01:11

wa has taught us that now you have enough time. Now you have ample

00:01:11 --> 00:01:14

time. Return to me, find yourselves, know who you are. So

00:01:14 --> 00:01:17

now we have absolutely no excuse, because we know what we are

00:01:17 --> 00:01:20

capable of. Alhamdulillah Rabbi Alain, one of the beautiful things

00:01:20 --> 00:01:24

of Ramadan is how a person can find themselves who they truly

00:01:24 --> 00:01:29

are, and how close the connection is really to Allah subhanahu wa

00:01:29 --> 00:01:34

today, the gems of the Quran Jews, number 27 SubhanAllah. How many

00:01:34 --> 00:01:37

jewels we can take out here from this Jews, but let us mention one

00:01:40 --> 00:01:43

00:02:00 --> 00:02:04

00:02:11 --> 00:02:15

other about this beautiful Deen, about its laws, about this, this

00:02:15 --> 00:02:20

00:02:23 --> 00:02:26

SallAllahu, sallam, you know, why are we? Why are we actually

00:02:26 --> 00:02:32

fasting? Allah revealed the Quran upon the Prophet salallahu. Alayhi

00:02:32 --> 00:02:36

00:02:36 --> 00:02:39

Muhammad. SallAllahu, sallam, Allah. SubhanaHu wa mentioned to

00:02:39 --> 00:02:44

us in the previous Jews Muhammad Allah. He is the Messenger of

00:02:44 --> 00:02:50

Allah, Subhanahu wa SubhanAllah. Those who are with Muhammad

00:02:50 --> 00:02:54

Sallallahu sallam, they are hard against the disbelievers, and they

00:02:55 --> 00:02:58

have so much Muhammad, so much mercy and shows so much kindness

00:02:58 --> 00:03:02

to one another. And this is of the lifestyle of the Prophet Muhammad

00:03:02 --> 00:03:07

Sallallahu, sallam. He lived this with his did we achieve this now?

00:03:07 --> 00:03:12

Masha Allah today, Allah subhanahu reminds us that the reminder this

00:03:12 --> 00:03:15

what we are doing. Many of us, we know about this already.

00:03:15 --> 00:03:18

Alhamdulillah, we have heard it. We came across our path in the

00:03:18 --> 00:03:22

past already. Allah says that this reminder is beneficial for you,

00:03:22 --> 00:03:25

because it keeps you on your toes. Every time it is mentioned, you

00:03:25 --> 00:03:30

need to turn back to that pathem We beg Allah, Subhanahu wa Taala

00:03:30 --> 00:03:33

every day that Allah must keep us on this righteous and steadfast

00:03:33 --> 00:03:37

Path of Allah, Subhanahu wa the path of which Allah SWT favors he

00:03:37 --> 00:03:40

is upon and not his anger and not to be amongst the losers as well,

00:03:41 --> 00:03:44

and Allah guide us. I mean now, but I mean then, Allah subhanahu

00:03:44 --> 00:03:50

wa, immediately after, after the reminder, Allah reminds us about

00:03:50 --> 00:03:54

the essence of life, about why we have been created, what is the

00:03:54 --> 00:03:58

reason for us being alive, what is our purpose? Allah subhanahu wa

00:03:58 --> 00:04:00

says, wa makh Raji, jinawa insul,

00:04:02 --> 00:04:06

and you have not been created. And Allah subhanahu wa has created men

00:04:06 --> 00:04:13

and jinn kind inside humankind, and jinn kind for what Illa only

00:04:13 --> 00:04:18

to worship Allah. How do we worship Allah? How much did we

00:04:18 --> 00:04:22

gain by knowing Allah subhanahu wa, taala, gaining the trust of

00:04:22 --> 00:04:25

Allah subhanahu wa, gaining the closeness to Allah subhanahu wa,

00:04:26 --> 00:04:29

knowing that if I stand in Salah, then Allah standing in front of my

00:04:29 --> 00:04:34

maker, my Creator, my my Naisha, my jedisha, Subhanahu wa taala,

00:04:34 --> 00:04:38

and Allah subhanahu wa is the one that is watching me and what I'm

00:04:38 --> 00:04:41

doing. Am I doing? Am I doing it correctly, and only for his Subhan

00:04:41 --> 00:04:45

wa Taala sake. Now we have no excuse. Who is watching us. Do we

00:04:45 --> 00:04:49

really want to impress our family members? How we stand in front of

00:04:49 --> 00:04:52

Allah? Subhanahu wa, there's no need they know us. They know who

00:04:52 --> 00:04:56

we are. This is what Allah is trying to teach us. Allah, anybody

00:04:56 --> 00:04:59

wants to ask who you truly are? If you are a married man, you ask the

00:04:59 --> 00:04:59

wife.

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

If you are anybody wants to know the wife, you ask the husband,

00:05:04 --> 00:05:07

they truly know the inner secrets of one another, but ya Allah

00:05:07 --> 00:05:11

subhanahu wa says that you are only here to worship me. How much

00:05:11 --> 00:05:16

did you achieve by knowing Allah subhanahu wa, intimately, having

00:05:16 --> 00:05:19

that connection with Allah subhanahu wa, when I stand I taste

00:05:19 --> 00:05:23

the sweetness of worshiping Allah subhanahu wa, and that is

00:05:23 --> 00:05:26

important for us. And Allah subhanahu wa mentions in the very

00:05:26 --> 00:05:31

next surah, in Surah to najab, where Allah subhanahu wa says that

00:05:31 --> 00:05:36

Mayan tikwa and ILAHA ima, Illah, wahi yuha, the connection that we

00:05:36 --> 00:05:42

need to have with Rasulullah. It's imperative. It is imperative. We

00:05:42 --> 00:05:44

have to have a connection with him. We have to start loving him.

00:05:44 --> 00:05:48

But how can we love him? How many of us really read the the seer or

00:05:48 --> 00:05:50

the history of the Prophet, sallAllahu, sallam, till this

00:05:50 --> 00:05:55

month? How did he fast? How was his lifestyle? How was he with his

00:05:55 --> 00:05:58

family? How was he with his kids? With children, with youth, how was

00:05:58 --> 00:06:01

he with elderly? How much do we know about this prophet of our

00:06:01 --> 00:06:06

salah? Ala salah, Allah subhanahu wa says Maya anti Quran in law, he

00:06:06 --> 00:06:11

spoke nothing of his own accord in Hoa, Illallah only what Allah

00:06:11 --> 00:06:16

subhanahu wa revealed upon the time of Muhammad, Salah, Quran or

00:06:16 --> 00:06:20

not Quran, whatever he said, came from Allah subhanahu wa. This is

00:06:20 --> 00:06:24

the beloved Rasul sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. How much

00:06:24 --> 00:06:26

connection do we have with him? If we don't have a connection with

00:06:26 --> 00:06:30

him, how can we call ourselves Muslim Allahu Akbar? We need to

00:06:30 --> 00:06:34

you know, the beautiful statement that I've made in the past, and

00:06:34 --> 00:06:36

I've heard it from my predecessors, was that, if you

00:06:36 --> 00:06:41

don't love the messages of Allah, then pretend to love him. Just

00:06:41 --> 00:06:44

pretend, when you hear about him, try to pretend to say that, Oh, I

00:06:44 --> 00:06:49

love this man. What a beautiful man he was, how humble he was, how

00:06:49 --> 00:06:51

how truthful he was,

00:06:52 --> 00:06:56

the path that he was on. It is the best part. Just Just pretend it,

00:06:56 --> 00:07:01

and inshallah will put it in our hearts that pretend inshaAllah

00:07:01 --> 00:07:04

will become a reality, that we will truly love Him, for Allah

00:07:04 --> 00:07:09

says, and we should never forget this Allah, that if we claim to

00:07:09 --> 00:07:14

say that we love Allah, the Prophet SAW was told by Allah, say

00:07:14 --> 00:07:19

to them, Ali, that they must follow you. So they must love you.

00:07:19 --> 00:07:23

They must follow your lifestyle, then you have bibhamula And Allah

00:07:23 --> 00:07:26

will only love us. So this is our path. This is what we need to

00:07:26 --> 00:07:30

find, inshallah. And if we do this, Allah subhanahu wa, forgive

00:07:30 --> 00:07:35

us. Amin Alameen. Allah subhanahu wa also speaks about the bishop,

00:07:35 --> 00:07:39

that you know what the Prophet Muhammad, sallAllahu, Sallam had

00:07:39 --> 00:07:41

many Maharaj ji said, many miracles that he performed, but

00:07:41 --> 00:07:46

one of those were when the Prophet SAW proclaimed that he was the

00:07:46 --> 00:07:56

nali of Allah subhanahu. WA was among them how sad it was for him,

00:07:56 --> 00:08:00

how bad he had to feel at that particular moment in time that his

00:08:00 --> 00:08:03

own family standing up against him. Abu Lahab was the first one

00:08:03 --> 00:08:06

Allah. But who said, Who are you, Muhammad? What are you telling us,

00:08:07 --> 00:08:11

cursed? Are you? And Allah revealed Tabitha, if you are the

00:08:11 --> 00:08:16

curse of Abu Lahab with his wife, subhanAllah, Allah revealed

00:08:16 --> 00:08:19

immediately a complete Surah with regards to that moment, and this

00:08:19 --> 00:08:22

is how much Allah allowed them to protect the messengers of Allah,

00:08:23 --> 00:08:29

and what happened, his miracle was his Allah Subhanallah says, Allah

00:08:29 --> 00:08:32

subhanahu wa mentioned this, that the hour has come here and the

00:08:32 --> 00:08:36

moon is split in two. And mashaAllah, scientists today say

00:08:36 --> 00:08:39

that if you look at the moon truly, and you really look through

00:08:39 --> 00:08:44

maybe a telescope, you will find that that moon is exactly split it

00:08:44 --> 00:08:47

in half. And that was the prophet Muhammad SAW, taking his tahiyan

00:08:47 --> 00:08:51

finger, and he index finger, and he pointed it to the moon, and it

00:08:51 --> 00:08:54

split it in half. And this was one of the miracles that the Prophet

00:08:54 --> 00:08:57

Muhammad, sallAllahu sallam, proved to them that he is truly a

00:08:57 --> 00:09:01

prophet and a messenger from Allah. And how great and honored

00:09:01 --> 00:09:06

are we to be a part of this beautiful, beautiful Deen in

00:09:06 --> 00:09:08

Ummah, sayna, Muhammad, sallAllahu, sallam, and then one

00:09:08 --> 00:09:11

of our favorite surah in the Quran, which is mentioned in

00:09:11 --> 00:09:15

everyone here, that this is the surah in Allah. He said to us the

00:09:15 --> 00:09:19

day when we are in Jannah, may Allah grant us to gather in

00:09:19 --> 00:09:23

Jannah. And Allah says, By the Abu lame Rajeev, I lahman, Rahim

00:09:25 --> 00:09:27

Abu as the

00:09:28 --> 00:09:33

Most Merciful Allah is the first

00:09:34 --> 00:09:37

starts then Allah Quran, the speech of Allah subhanahu

00:09:39 --> 00:09:42

wa taught the Quran to who to Muhammad Sallallahu, alaihi

00:09:42 --> 00:09:44

wasallam and Muhammad Sallallahu, sallam,

00:09:45 --> 00:09:50

he's told the Quran and recited each verses to us, to the umma,

00:09:50 --> 00:09:56

salam, salahim, ayadi, whatever has been revealed to him as read

00:09:56 --> 00:09:59

it and recited to others a key him and purify them through.

00:10:00 --> 00:10:03

These verses, wa yaalimu Kitab, and teach them this Quran Al

00:10:03 --> 00:10:07

haitman. So the first is Allah the second, Allah speaks Allah Quran,

00:10:07 --> 00:10:11

about the Quran Allah subhanahu wa, speech. And then after that,

00:10:12 --> 00:10:15

then the creation of Allah subhanahu wa. And

00:10:17 --> 00:10:21

then Allah subhanahu wa then clarified and made clear and

00:10:21 --> 00:10:25

taught the eloquence to Muhammad, sallAllahu, sallam. So these four

00:10:25 --> 00:10:29

stages very important and the beautiful theme of the Surah,

00:10:29 --> 00:10:31

Allah, the verse that will

00:10:33 --> 00:10:35

capture us is, what from the

00:10:38 --> 00:10:41

which of the favors of your Lord? Can you deny. Can we truly look

00:10:41 --> 00:10:45

within ourselves? Look at our own bodies, look at whatever is

00:10:45 --> 00:10:51

surrounding us. Allah says, Never, never, ever. Will you be able to

00:10:51 --> 00:10:57

count the bounties of Allah, but Allah grant us the ability to

00:10:57 --> 00:11:02

understand that we are favored by Allah to be alive today and to

00:11:02 --> 00:11:05

say, La ilaha illAllah Muhammad Rasulullah, think,

00:11:07 --> 00:11:10

how many of our brothers and our brethren and our sisters are

00:11:11 --> 00:11:14

doomed? They are on the wrong path, and we are on the righteous

00:11:14 --> 00:11:17

path? Do we think that we are successful because we say, La

00:11:17 --> 00:11:20

ilaha illAllah Muhammad Rasulullah, we have a duty.

00:11:20 --> 00:11:23

Everybody's got the right and the Haq to hear about this beautiful

00:11:23 --> 00:11:27

deed. Let us become dua. Let us speak to everybody. Use the

00:11:27 --> 00:11:30

opportunity ya Allah has brought the pandemic in front of us. Now

00:11:30 --> 00:11:33

is the time that we can call to people and say that, do you still

00:11:33 --> 00:11:38

believe in anybody besides Allah And subhanAllah? May Allah guide

00:11:38 --> 00:11:42

people through this effort and the sacrifice that we will make, don't

00:11:42 --> 00:11:45

be shy about our deen. This is our deen. This is Allah, Subhanahu wa

00:11:45 --> 00:11:48

Deen, the only Deen that will be accepted by Allah. Allah will

00:11:48 --> 00:11:51

guide us to saying the right words, inshaAllah, Dalai, LA and

00:11:51 --> 00:11:55

people will be guided to Islam. Abu Dhabi, Barak, Allah fiko

00:11:55 --> 00:12:00

Awana, uma Alhamdulillah. Rabi, assalamu. Alaikum. Wahi taala,
