Name we love the sounds. I

00:00:26 --> 00:00:37

Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah. Madhu, understand women say, yeah,

00:00:37 --> 00:00:47

the Armina Mayu fala, Mullah when a shadow. Allah ILAHA, illallah,

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

Sharika, wana Shah do Anna, Sayyidina, wanabiyana, Wahabi

00:00:51 --> 00:01:01

Baner wa Maulana, Muhammad, sallAllahu, alayhi wa Allah Ali,

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

he was silly. Amri, Lee, emrisan, EF Kahu, kauli, Subhana, Kala IL,

00:01:07 --> 00:01:12

Melena, Ilana alum Tana, Inna Ali mul Hakim. I greet everyone with

00:01:12 --> 00:01:15

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

00:01:15 --> 00:01:19

greeting of Jannah as salaam, Alaikum wa, Rahmatullahi, taala,

00:01:19 --> 00:01:19

Barakatuh

00:01:22 --> 00:01:26

alham, Alhamdulillah. So Alhamdulillah, we thank and praise

00:01:26 --> 00:01:31

Allah, who once again, afford us an opportunity of Jumaa, a Juma of

00:01:31 --> 00:01:35

change. We've heard the change in the greeting. Everybody probably

00:01:35 --> 00:01:38

had nice breakfast this morning. Allah, bless those who had the

00:01:38 --> 00:01:41

breakfast. Allah, bless those who are fasting today as well. But we

00:01:41 --> 00:01:44

start off by saying, I hope everybody had a wonderful aid

00:01:44 --> 00:01:50

yesterday, an aid which is accepted by Allah as we celebrated

00:01:50 --> 00:01:55

Masha Allah, a month that has gone by so quickly. But alhamdulillah,

00:01:56 --> 00:02:01

we've maximized on improving ourselves as human beings,

00:02:01 --> 00:02:05

improving ourselves as Muslims, what we have achieved in sha

00:02:05 --> 00:02:10

Allah, may Allah allow us to keep up with the pace that we have set

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

for ourselves.

00:02:13 --> 00:02:17

Because indeed, what we found in Ramadan is, this is who I am. I'm

00:02:17 --> 00:02:22

able to cope with this. I'm able to to read one khatam I'm able to

00:02:22 --> 00:02:27

read two khatams a month. I'm able to read three khatams a month. I'm

00:02:27 --> 00:02:30

able to read, Inshallah, four khatams Or five khatams a month.

00:02:31 --> 00:02:35

Allah, Allah knows best who we are and how much effort we placed in

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

and

00:02:36 --> 00:02:40

how much time we utilized, understanding that when Allah

00:02:40 --> 00:02:44

gives us good times that we throw ourselves broken in front of

00:02:44 --> 00:02:48

Allah, utilizing that and maximizing that time in order to

00:02:48 --> 00:02:53

gain maximum benefit. Inshallah, similarly, today, we should not

00:02:53 --> 00:02:56

think that today is anything less, because Friday is an Eid of a

00:02:56 --> 00:03:00

believer. Again, eat for us. Allah gave us two Eids after each other,

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

Thursday, Eid, Friday, Eid, masha Allah, the Eid of the week.

00:03:04 --> 00:03:08

And this is also a day that we should celebrate. Why this is once

00:03:08 --> 00:03:13

a week that we gather like this, showing our unity, standing

00:03:13 --> 00:03:14

together,

00:03:15 --> 00:03:19

line by line, shoulder to shoulder.

00:03:22 --> 00:03:27

And Allah, worshiping Allah as we see him, Jala jalalu, as if we see

00:03:27 --> 00:03:28

him, Jala jalalu.

00:03:30 --> 00:03:36

And this is the ultimate goal of a believer. It's Ihsan for indeed.

00:03:36 --> 00:03:41

And what can the reward for good be except good? And may Allah

00:03:41 --> 00:03:47

grant us a good reward for all our efforts. I mean, Jamaat muslimin,

00:03:47 --> 00:03:50

always when we finish with Ramadan, we reflect, and this is

00:03:50 --> 00:03:53

the life of a believer, hazibu kablan.

00:03:54 --> 00:03:57

They take stock of yourself before stock will be taken for you or

00:03:57 --> 00:04:01

from you. So we are taking stock, and we know that if we take stock,

00:04:01 --> 00:04:06

we try and see Masha Allah. I've actually done exceptionally well

00:04:06 --> 00:04:09

during the month of Ramadan, but we all know ourselves after

00:04:09 --> 00:04:13

Ramadan is not that easy fasting in Ramadan is it's, I think it's

00:04:13 --> 00:04:16

the easiest fast. Why is it the easiest fast? Because Allah

00:04:16 --> 00:04:20

commands us to fast. It's a commandment from Allah, and we

00:04:20 --> 00:04:24

cannot escape it, except if we fail ill, except if we are

00:04:24 --> 00:04:27

traveling. Then there's certain ruchas, certain reasons, and

00:04:27 --> 00:04:31

certain beautiful gifts that Allah gives us. Then Subhanallah, we are

00:04:31 --> 00:04:35

allowed to break our fast and pay in those fast again after Ramadan,

00:04:36 --> 00:04:40

but inevitably, what is meant? What is meant here is Allah

00:04:40 --> 00:04:44

instruct us to fast. Kutiba, ali kumusya, bimana, furida, ali

00:04:45 --> 00:04:48

alikumusilla, Allah has made it incumbent upon the believers you

00:04:48 --> 00:04:52

have to fast during the month of Ramadan. So that's very easy for

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

us. Why we executing Allah's law, and we will try our utmost best

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

not to violate that law. But after Ramadan.

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

All it is not that easy, because now it's not an instruction and a

00:05:03 --> 00:05:04

command from Allah.

00:05:06 --> 00:05:11

It is an added bonus for us now, Allah, look at us to improve

00:05:11 --> 00:05:15

ourselves in rewards and raise ourselves in rank. You know, we do

00:05:15 --> 00:05:18

this now, not because Allah instruct us. We do this now out of

00:05:18 --> 00:05:20

love for Allah and His Rasul

00:05:22 --> 00:05:27

fasting. Commandment, fasting, sunnah, fasting after hugman, love

00:05:27 --> 00:05:30

for Allah. Nobody's going to wake up just one day and say, Okay, I'm

00:05:30 --> 00:05:34

going to fast. You're going to fast because you want the rewards

00:05:34 --> 00:05:37

for fasting. You want a lot of to reward you for this fast. You want

00:05:37 --> 00:05:41

to be of those whom ahaba, sunnati, ahabani, that who loves

00:05:41 --> 00:05:44

my sunnah, love me. We love the Prophet Salla Salam, why because

00:05:44 --> 00:05:47

he fasted on a Monday? Why because he fasted on a Thursday? Why

00:05:47 --> 00:05:51

because he fasted on the 13th, 14th and 15th of every month? Why

00:05:51 --> 00:05:56

because he fasted on the 10 days of the Hijjah? Why because he

00:05:56 --> 00:05:56

fasted on

00:05:59 --> 00:06:02

the 10th of maharam, the ninth and the 10th of maharam, or the 10th

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

and the 11th of Muharram. Some of the people, because of the awe of

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

the moment of Miraj, people feel that they want to fast on that day

00:06:09 --> 00:06:12

that is out of hope and love for Allah and His Rasul Denish Fisher

00:06:12 --> 00:06:15

Aban. Some people feel that they want to fast on that day out of

00:06:15 --> 00:06:18

love and hope for His Rasul SallAllahu, alayhi wa sallam. So

00:06:18 --> 00:06:22

we do actions out of love, extra actions. He's out of love for him.

00:06:22 --> 00:06:26

SallAllahu, Salaman, out of love for Allah. We want to gain

00:06:26 --> 00:06:28

closeness to them. Jala, jalalu, so that

00:06:30 --> 00:06:33

he's a challenge for us. So all of us heard what I said. We fast

00:06:33 --> 00:06:37

Monday and Thursday. Why out of love? Does this mean that those

00:06:37 --> 00:06:40

who doesn't fast on a Monday and a Thursday does not love Allah and

00:06:40 --> 00:06:44

His Rasool? No indeed. It doesn't mean that, because then I'm going

00:06:44 --> 00:06:47

to be the first one, because very difficult for me to pass on a

00:06:47 --> 00:06:50

Monday and a Thursday and the 13th, 14th and 15th of every

00:06:50 --> 00:06:53

month. Stuff we like shouldn't be dead. It shouldn't be difficult,

00:06:54 --> 00:06:57

but to some, it's not that easy. But doesn't that mean that that

00:06:57 --> 00:07:00

person doesn't love the Rasul assalam, or I'm going to say

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

because I'm fasting on a Monday and a Thursday, and because I'm

00:07:03 --> 00:07:06

fasting on the 13th, 14th and the 15th, I'm better than the one that

00:07:06 --> 00:07:10

don't fast. Is this the attitude of a believer Allahu Akbar, that

00:07:10 --> 00:07:16

one person can do one action of good. And let's mention the words

00:07:16 --> 00:07:20

of the messages Allah, what He says about actions of good. He

00:07:20 --> 00:07:24

says that Lata, Kiran, namin, Alma, rufi, that don't take any

00:07:24 --> 00:07:28

small action, in the eyes of Allah, is being insignificant and

00:07:28 --> 00:07:28

unnoticed.

00:07:29 --> 00:07:33

Any action, he's not mentioning the biggest of actions. He's not

00:07:33 --> 00:07:36

mentioning Salah in specific how much Salah you make and how much

00:07:36 --> 00:07:41

salah the other one make? No, how much fasting, no, no, no, Shay.

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

And any action just moving a stone out of the road for somebody else

00:07:46 --> 00:07:48

with the intention. Ya, Allah, I don't want my brother or my sister

00:07:48 --> 00:07:52

or any human being or anyone to get hurt because I'm just removing

00:07:52 --> 00:07:57

a stone from the path where other people are walking. That's an

00:07:57 --> 00:08:00

action of khair and good intention. Everything goes within

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

that you are not just going to move a stone out of the road.

00:08:04 --> 00:08:06

The reason that we are going to move a stone at the road is

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

because this is there's a reason for it. Hey, somebody can get

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

hurt. A banana pea is laying there. What you going to do? You

00:08:11 --> 00:08:15

going to pick, pick up the banana peel, throw it in the bum. That's

00:08:15 --> 00:08:19

an action of good. But there's an intention behind it. Somebody can

00:08:19 --> 00:08:23

get hurt, and don't take these actions of small that you are

00:08:23 --> 00:08:28

doing as being insignificant in the eyes of Allah, even if it is

00:08:28 --> 00:08:30

that you meet your brother

00:08:31 --> 00:08:36

be watching Tariq with a joyous and Happy face like Mawlana, may

00:08:37 --> 00:08:38

Allah

00:08:39 --> 00:08:41

bless you. I mean,

00:08:42 --> 00:08:46

we should always try to have a smile on our face, the easiest way

00:08:46 --> 00:08:50

to receive charity, because today's world,

00:08:51 --> 00:08:52

it's difficult, man.

00:08:53 --> 00:08:58

We want to walk like morbid guys around because it's either things

00:08:58 --> 00:09:02

are difficult or, you know the morbid face today represent what

00:09:03 --> 00:09:04

the old face?

00:09:06 --> 00:09:11

The more Bristol you walk. You know the arms mashallah know I am.

00:09:11 --> 00:09:14

I don't even know I am myself. Ya rab, you know this is who I am,

00:09:14 --> 00:09:18

but this is where I am. Look at me. I'm flying. Look at my coat.

00:09:18 --> 00:09:23

There's no wind, but it's Allah Akbar. You know, this is,

00:09:24 --> 00:09:27

you know, this is not the explanation for this. We should

00:09:27 --> 00:09:32

not. Smiling is amazing. Smiling is contagious, like they say,

00:09:32 --> 00:09:36

Allah is contagious. I I witness it even in my life. Sometimes, you

00:09:36 --> 00:09:40

know, we have a bad day, but just, you know, you stretch that muscle

00:09:40 --> 00:09:40

just a little

00:09:42 --> 00:09:46

bit the day becomes I come to the majjit, and this is the best

00:09:46 --> 00:09:50

place, Walla, you can practice it. Go to your work. See that morbid

00:09:50 --> 00:09:53

guided walk with the COTE no no wind and all that. I'm here again,

00:09:53 --> 00:09:56

subhanAllah, and I must force myself to smile as a fake smile.

00:09:57 --> 00:09:58

We all know that, right?

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

We have.

00:10:00 --> 00:10:01

People that we meet. But,

00:10:02 --> 00:10:02

okay,

00:10:04 --> 00:10:08

Allah, forgive me. Forgive me, but not this guy. You know, we have

00:10:08 --> 00:10:11

that in within us as well. I can see everybody's happy. Ramadan, is

00:10:11 --> 00:10:13

done. I'm again, back to my old self. Joke. Is there? Mashallah,

00:10:13 --> 00:10:17

right? But there's a message behind it. Inshallah likes it.

00:10:17 --> 00:10:19

Amin, ami, you know, so

00:10:20 --> 00:10:23

when we there, we are pretending.

00:10:24 --> 00:10:25

And pretending is not good,

00:10:26 --> 00:10:28

even if that guy is like that,

00:10:30 --> 00:10:35

remember the words of the messenger. He is that guy that

00:10:35 --> 00:10:38

makes it difficult, but I'm going to be the guy that makes it easy

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

for him.

00:10:39 --> 00:10:44

I'm changing the tides. He makes everybody shakes in the working

00:10:44 --> 00:10:49

place. I make everybody smile in the working place. Allahu, Akbar.

00:10:49 --> 00:10:52

This is who we should be, a Muslim. Bring joy to everybody

00:10:52 --> 00:10:55

else. People see the beauty, even in a smile of a believer.

00:10:57 --> 00:11:01

This is Rasulullah sallam's way. Can you imagine when he can Oh,

00:11:01 --> 00:11:04

Allah, can you just imagine there's the door, you close your

00:11:04 --> 00:11:07

eyes and just imagine we are living in the time of the

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

messenger, and he in this SallAllahu, can you imagine what

00:11:11 --> 00:11:13

the atmosphere will be here?

00:11:15 --> 00:11:20

We would be silent and quiet, and we'll just look at him in Oh, some

00:11:20 --> 00:11:22

of us will be able to look at his face because of how much we love

00:11:22 --> 00:11:26

him. Some of us will be too shy. We look down, but just being in

00:11:26 --> 00:11:29

his presence, it will just be an amazing feeling

00:11:30 --> 00:11:35

that is our messenger, sallAllahu, alayhi wa sallam Wallahi, that was

00:11:35 --> 00:11:41

every time that he entered into a ser into a jamaa of people that

00:11:41 --> 00:11:46

gather that is exactly how they felt. He brought light to a

00:11:46 --> 00:11:48

community. He brought light to yatrib.

00:11:49 --> 00:11:56

Yathrib today, madinahul, mudwara. Yathrib was a place of sickness

00:11:56 --> 00:12:01

and illness where no trader wanted to base himself, not even for a

00:12:01 --> 00:12:05

day. They come just quickly. And Ghana, they because this is a

00:12:05 --> 00:12:08

place where it's too much illness and sickness and badness that we

00:12:08 --> 00:12:14

get from this place. And upon entry of Rasulullah Ali was into

00:12:14 --> 00:12:20

that time known as yatrib, suddenly it became the illuminated

00:12:20 --> 00:12:22

city of Medina ul manawara.

00:12:24 --> 00:12:29

This effect that one human being could have on an entire city,

00:12:31 --> 00:12:32

that

00:12:33 --> 00:12:38

is not the truth that one human being could have on an entire

00:12:39 --> 00:12:39

Ummah,

00:12:40 --> 00:12:45

sallAllahu, alayhi, wa sallam. When we hear his name, it makes us

00:12:45 --> 00:12:49

happy. Inshallah, it must be like that. I mean, now that's why

00:12:49 --> 00:12:52

important practice is sunnah. Because if you practice his

00:12:52 --> 00:12:56

sunnah, you create a love for him, whether you know about you know it

00:12:56 --> 00:13:00

or not, it's going to happen. Just practice his sunnah, somebody that

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

every day, can you imagine? Every day it takes time out. He says,

00:13:04 --> 00:13:05

Allah

00:13:07 --> 00:13:15

mas, he was Salim alone. He takes time out. Just for that, sending

00:13:15 --> 00:13:18

salutations upon him that cannot just be okay. I'm just sending

00:13:18 --> 00:13:22

salutations upon you that is a relationship that you develop with

00:13:22 --> 00:13:22

him. Saluah,

00:13:24 --> 00:13:25

there's meaning to that. Salawat, this

00:13:27 --> 00:13:29

individual that I'm sending the salutations upon, this is the

00:13:29 --> 00:13:33

individual that's the most beloved to Allah, and in my life, he must

00:13:33 --> 00:13:36

be the most beloved to me. So that's why I send the abundance of

00:13:36 --> 00:13:37

salutations upon him,

00:13:38 --> 00:13:41

whether you know it or not, and the scholars, they mention, if it

00:13:41 --> 00:13:45

is that you feel in your heart, you are I feel nothing. You know

00:13:45 --> 00:13:49

when I say Allah, Allah, protect us and forgive us. But if it is

00:13:49 --> 00:13:51

that you feel nothing, when you say Allah, say NA Muhammad, did

00:13:51 --> 00:13:56

the scholars say still, say it. Say it. Say it a lot, because

00:13:56 --> 00:13:58

definitely that Sarawak will have an effect on him.

00:13:59 --> 00:14:02

It will have an effect on no matter if you like it or if you

00:14:02 --> 00:14:06

don't. I remember some people used to tell me, why is it that you

00:14:06 --> 00:14:10

praise the Prophet so much your stuff Illah? You know, it seems

00:14:10 --> 00:14:13

like you worshiping and you put him on a higher pedestal. In

00:14:13 --> 00:14:16

Allah, people don't understand you speak about Muhammad. Your

00:14:16 --> 00:14:20

intention is Allah, you you coming out by Allah, because Allah loves

00:14:20 --> 00:14:23

him, and Allah is instructing you that you must send salutations

00:14:23 --> 00:14:27

upon him. Why? Because Allah sends salutations upon him. Allah says,

00:14:27 --> 00:14:32

in Allah perpetually, Allah is Malaika sends salutations upon

00:14:32 --> 00:14:36

Muhammad. Saw assalam every moment you can't blink, ay, that

00:14:36 --> 00:14:39

salutations are not sent upon Muhammad. So as so your and my

00:14:39 --> 00:14:42

salutations is not needed. You know, Allah, don't need you to

00:14:42 --> 00:14:45

send. Allah sends the rotations upon him. But Allah says, Yay,

00:14:45 --> 00:14:49

wala Dina Amanu, and Allah gives a command. Can you imagine this?

00:14:50 --> 00:14:53

Allah could have just said, okay, and please send. But Allah say,

00:14:53 --> 00:14:58

you must, because I send and may Malaika sin Allah say, Sallu, you.

00:15:00 --> 00:15:04

You must send salutations. Alayhi wa sallimutas Lima upon him,

00:15:04 --> 00:15:08

sallAllahu, alayhi wa sallam, I command this from Allah, to send

00:15:08 --> 00:15:12

salutations. It hurts your heart when you think that a Muslim can

00:15:12 --> 00:15:14

tell you. Why must you praise it? Almost like the people of the

00:15:14 --> 00:15:17

Christians, I praise Jesus so much. Yeah, Allah, you equate a

00:15:17 --> 00:15:18

Muslim to a Christian.

00:15:19 --> 00:15:24

You equate a Muslim to somebody that is not a Muslim? No, no.

00:15:24 --> 00:15:29

Jamaat, a Muslim gives you honor. Why you take the honor away from

00:15:29 --> 00:15:33

you? Allah gives us honor, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah gives us you

00:15:33 --> 00:15:35

and me. Allah give us honor. We want to * that honor away

00:15:35 --> 00:15:39

from ourselves and the dignity and that high rank that Allah give us

00:15:39 --> 00:15:44

His people. No, we receive that, we embrace that, that is us. And

00:15:44 --> 00:15:48

we have work to do. We have a lot of work to do, and that's where

00:15:48 --> 00:15:51

Ramadan came to teach us who we are. Every opportunity that we

00:15:51 --> 00:15:56

had, we were kind, we were kind, and our kindness paid off. Our

00:15:58 --> 00:15:59

kindness paid off. We

00:16:00 --> 00:16:07

don't speak Okay, let me see how many people has met people during

00:16:07 --> 00:16:10

the month of Ramadan, and because of the kindness, people gave their

00:16:10 --> 00:16:14

hand and said, I want to be a Muslim. How many people Wallahi,

00:16:14 --> 00:16:17

I've witnessed it myself. Am I going to say who was the one that

00:16:17 --> 00:16:20

gave the Dawah and who was the one that, you know, because we are

00:16:20 --> 00:16:23

nothing but a means and a tool that Allah use. It's not us, it's

00:16:23 --> 00:16:28

Allah gives hidayah. Allah gives hidayah. But why? Why can you just

00:16:28 --> 00:16:31

imagine that Allah use you as a means, but you want to walk around

00:16:31 --> 00:16:32

more, but

00:16:33 --> 00:16:38

the people speak to you, you give them abrupt answers, and then you

00:16:38 --> 00:16:41

expect the people to see the beauty of Islam, never you're

00:16:41 --> 00:16:46

chasing people far away from the the way of truth. Be kind you saw.

00:16:46 --> 00:16:53

Assalam says, what I came my best, best, best, best, best gift that

00:16:53 --> 00:16:56

Allah has given me is my character. Follow this part of

00:16:56 --> 00:17:00

mine. I love this, this character. Adab, focal. Alim, you can have

00:17:00 --> 00:17:03

all the knowledge in the world, but your adapt will outshine that

00:17:03 --> 00:17:06

knowledge. You have a lot of people that are not knowledgeable,

00:17:06 --> 00:17:09

but we kind of just attach ourselves to them. We love them.

00:17:09 --> 00:17:12

We just want to be in the company. Why? It's not because of the

00:17:12 --> 00:17:14

knowledge, it's because of the order. It's just because they make

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

you happy when you're there. You don't need people to have

00:17:17 --> 00:17:23

Mashallah. We must indulge in company where there's scholars and

00:17:23 --> 00:17:28

Sadiq, you know, and alims and ulama. This is, this is good

00:17:28 --> 00:17:32

gatherings. But imagine a gathering, you know, the Alim sit

00:17:32 --> 00:17:36

in front, you know, we make an example of an alim. He is so more,

00:17:36 --> 00:17:39

but he is so rude, but he's teaching you the kalam who's going

00:17:39 --> 00:17:40

to sit in his class.

00:17:41 --> 00:17:44

You say, No, man, this guy is

00:17:45 --> 00:17:48

no way to talk to me. I'm asking a question, and he says, but he just

00:17:48 --> 00:17:51

chased me away and just shunned me like this. You're not going to

00:17:51 --> 00:17:53

find joy in that, so you're going to move to somewhere else where

00:17:53 --> 00:17:56

you're going to find that Okay, now that this is a guy that I can

00:17:56 --> 00:17:59

approach, this is a guy that I can love. This is a guy that I can

00:17:59 --> 00:18:03

take my team from Subhanallah, you know, masha Allah. He's got good

00:18:03 --> 00:18:07

qualities. He reminds me of Rasulullah. This is amazing, and

00:18:08 --> 00:18:12

that is what scholars must learn. Adopt the character of the mission

00:18:12 --> 00:18:15

to SallAllahu sallam, in everything, you know, I'm speaking

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

about the Ulama, who is the ulama of the past, Ya Allah. They had so

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

much respect for Rasulullah. They had so much respect for the deen.

00:18:22 --> 00:18:25

They would sit in a certain manner. They would take care of

00:18:25 --> 00:18:30

that Kuki tab, that book. It will be perfumed when they recite it.

00:18:30 --> 00:18:34

They will recite it in a beautiful you know, mashaAllah, you hear, I

00:18:34 --> 00:18:37

love to just listen to the clips of my honorable teacher, Muhammad,

00:18:37 --> 00:18:40

when he used to read the Hadith. You know, he used to have a

00:18:40 --> 00:18:43

certain tune to it when he read it, you can see the joy in his

00:18:43 --> 00:18:46

face when he read it, Allah, you you will sit there. You use this.

00:18:47 --> 00:18:50

You're not only enjoying the reading of the words, but you

00:18:50 --> 00:18:54

enjoy the reading of the sound. You're enjoying the the reading of

00:18:54 --> 00:18:57

the person that sit in front of you. Because you know Subhanallah,

00:18:57 --> 00:18:59

this is a person that is close to Allah.

00:19:00 --> 00:19:03

You can see it. You can feel it. You love being in the presence.

00:19:04 --> 00:19:09

This is ajib. This is what it is our pious predecessors, when they

00:19:09 --> 00:19:10

used to teach, they

00:19:12 --> 00:19:17

were Ahmed ibn Humber. Who was he? A person came to him with an

00:19:17 --> 00:19:20

amount of questions, and he was the most knowledgeable of his

00:19:20 --> 00:19:21

time. Ahmed Ibraham, but

00:19:24 --> 00:19:27

what happened? And when they came in his company, they had these

00:19:27 --> 00:19:30

questions, and they asked him, and I think he only answered, like

00:19:30 --> 00:19:33

plus minus three questions and all the other questions I say, but you

00:19:33 --> 00:19:37

are, Ahmed imma, I've been sent from so far to come and ask you

00:19:37 --> 00:19:40

these questions. All you say is, la Adri. La Adri. La Adri, knowing

00:19:40 --> 00:19:43

you must answer me. So what was your answer? You tell the person

00:19:43 --> 00:19:45

that sent you that Ahmad ibn Hamba said it. I don't

00:19:46 --> 00:19:49

know. I don't know the answer. What do you want me to tell you

00:19:49 --> 00:19:52

the humility of the scholars and the genuineness of the scholars,

00:19:52 --> 00:19:53

they were truthful.

00:19:54 --> 00:19:57

Today, we want to answer every you know. You don't even ask an alim.

00:19:57 --> 00:19:59

You ask just this, the guy that love Google.

00:20:00 --> 00:20:00

You

00:20:01 --> 00:20:04

know mashallah, he speaks so well. He just loves Google. He quote

00:20:04 --> 00:20:06

Google also. And you believe in quoting Google,

00:20:07 --> 00:20:11

and you're like, oh, what? He will put that molena In a chips pucky

00:20:11 --> 00:20:16

man. This guy's got knowledge, yeah, he will find those times

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

also, where those Subhanallah that leads people astray, they will be

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

the leaders and Allah protect us from that. They never, ever sat at

00:20:24 --> 00:20:28

the feet of no Ali. They never qualified in one book, but they

00:20:28 --> 00:20:32

are the ones that give the Fatah today. Allah protect us. Jamaat al

00:20:32 --> 00:20:35

muslimin, our honor. Now, dignity of Islam is very important. We

00:20:35 --> 00:20:40

have a legacy, a legacy of isnad, a legacy of sanad that my not

00:20:40 --> 00:20:44

studies. I took from somebody who studied, who took from somebody

00:20:44 --> 00:20:48

who studied, and they all have a and it linked to the messenger. So

00:20:48 --> 00:20:51

assalam, that's important. Be careful who you take your deen

00:20:51 --> 00:20:51

from

00:20:52 --> 00:20:56

Wallahi, be careful. Jamal, easy to go astray. Mufti, Google will

00:20:56 --> 00:20:59

teach you many things. And you might it might be a proper Alim

00:20:59 --> 00:21:01

that's also speaking there, but your understanding of it might be

00:21:01 --> 00:21:05

wrong. So go to the Alim and say, Do I understand this properly?

00:21:05 --> 00:21:08

Because I don't want to practice something, because I'm going to

00:21:08 --> 00:21:11

start this practice, and then my children and their children and

00:21:11 --> 00:21:14

people that are connected to them will practice this practice, and I

00:21:14 --> 00:21:16

will lay in my Cobra, and I will get the beating of my life every

00:21:16 --> 00:21:22

single day. Why? Because I started to practice good in that you good

00:21:22 --> 00:21:25

in that, yes, starting and reviving a sunnah, that's good.

00:21:25 --> 00:21:29

There's good reward. But say, Yeah, sunnah, it's totally not

00:21:29 --> 00:21:32

part of Sharia that because I felt that I have the knowledge, I

00:21:32 --> 00:21:35

wanted to start practicing that is a that is a big problem. You can

00:21:35 --> 00:21:38

start getting hiding in the cobbler. You're not even going to

00:21:38 --> 00:21:40

know what you did, because your intention was good. But the ego

00:21:40 --> 00:21:41

told me, I know more

00:21:43 --> 00:21:46

the eloquence of this guy's English is better than the

00:21:46 --> 00:21:49

eloquence of that Island's English. Wallah deen is not based

00:21:49 --> 00:21:52

on English. If Deen was based on English, everybody would have

00:21:53 --> 00:21:57

been ulama. But that's why Allah made it that you must go and sit.

00:21:57 --> 00:21:58

He must

00:21:59 --> 00:22:02

say, you must go and set nights. The one who burns the midnight oil

00:22:02 --> 00:22:04

is the one that will benefit you

00:22:05 --> 00:22:06

need to set up nights.

00:22:09 --> 00:22:11

Allah Akbar sitting with books. If I think about it, it gives me

00:22:11 --> 00:22:14

goosebumps. I love it. Alhamdulillah. I enjoy it. But

00:22:14 --> 00:22:18

some people, you know, when the Ulama sit for eight months, nine

00:22:18 --> 00:22:21

months, 10 months, sometimes with one masala. People don't know that

00:22:22 --> 00:22:27

to get to an answer takes effort, takes 2030, 4050, books, long

00:22:27 --> 00:22:30

readings, to get to a judgment, because that Alim don't want to

00:22:30 --> 00:22:33

make the mistake and say, no, no, no, you know, I found the first

00:22:33 --> 00:22:34

answer, and this is the

00:22:35 --> 00:22:38

answer. Is why? The most beloved answer to Aliyah and was what?

00:22:39 --> 00:22:40

I don't know.

00:22:41 --> 00:22:46

Oh, the FAQ, Ummah, the door of knowledge, Bible,

00:22:47 --> 00:22:52

Ali, Karam, Allahu Aja, his favorite answer, I don't know,

00:22:52 --> 00:22:57

says, Hold on. Let me first make sure, brother, whether I'm Ali or

00:22:57 --> 00:23:00

not, this doesn't work. This is not my Deen. This is Allah's.

00:23:00 --> 00:23:06

Deen, Allah, Allah, guide us in Ramadan. We've achieved how to the

00:23:06 --> 00:23:08

tongue, control it.

00:23:09 --> 00:23:15

Actions control it. Be kind o. Masha Allah, I have little

00:23:16 --> 00:23:20

Bismillah, good art, and we saw the results almost

00:23:20 --> 00:23:21

instantaneously.

00:23:23 --> 00:23:28

I believe this, Ramadan was a whole miracle. My whole life in

00:23:28 --> 00:23:32

Ramadan was a miracle because I don't have, okay, you mustn't say

00:23:32 --> 00:23:35

you have. You say, Alhamdulillah, what you have. But I mean for us

00:23:35 --> 00:23:41

terms to understand we don't have much, but we give and Allah. I

00:23:41 --> 00:23:44

mean Juma, my tears when I start rolling because, Allah, You are

00:23:44 --> 00:23:49

the greatest being man. And you prove it to us all the time as we

00:23:49 --> 00:23:51

give you see ya Sarah,

00:23:52 --> 00:23:56

there comes and you give it. There it comes again. You like

00:23:56 --> 00:24:02

instantaneously, and you give it. There's it again. You know, if you

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

are

00:24:03 --> 00:24:05

people that are conscious of Allah, Allah will see the bounty.

00:24:06 --> 00:24:09

You won't just give and give and give, and afterwards you want to

00:24:09 --> 00:24:11

say, Allah, what do you give? Every day you see what Allah gives

00:24:11 --> 00:24:11

you.

00:24:13 --> 00:24:16

We see, we see. Till today, Wallahi, till today we give, and

00:24:16 --> 00:24:17

we saw Allah's mercy.

00:24:19 --> 00:24:24

There is it again. Allah just give us a is just a monetary it's not

00:24:24 --> 00:24:28

just a monetary thing. I didn't feel so well this morning and

00:24:28 --> 00:24:31

mashallah, the radio decided they want mashallah, you must be on

00:24:31 --> 00:24:33

now. Voice, I said,

00:24:35 --> 00:24:39

Oh, Allah, tough task. Yeah, you know. But okay, let's go for this.

00:24:39 --> 00:24:42

Bismillah, Rahman Al Rahim, I spoke on the radio. It was like

00:24:42 --> 00:24:45

the most easiest radio station program that I presented. I don't

00:24:45 --> 00:24:48

know how, in how many years, just flowing. Alhamdulillah, prepared

00:24:48 --> 00:24:52

for it. There we go. And on top of that, I thought, yo, the month,

00:24:53 --> 00:24:59

subhanAllah, Allah, I'm speaking to you, and I just loved what I'm

00:24:59 --> 00:24:59

doing.

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

Because I love you, for the sake of Allah, and we love what we are

00:25:03 --> 00:25:08

doing Allah, except from us. Inshallah, so my time is up, but

00:25:09 --> 00:25:13

the message today is, Be who you found yourself to be in Ramadan.

00:25:14 --> 00:25:17

Every action that you have practiced, try to maintain it. And

00:25:17 --> 00:25:20

Inshallah, we know we've done a lot in Ramadan, don't try to do

00:25:20 --> 00:25:23

the lot that you have done in Ramadan now for the whole year,

00:25:23 --> 00:25:27

try to choose, like, three of the good things that you for example,

00:25:27 --> 00:25:31

Quran recital, Salah on time and fasting on a Monday and a

00:25:31 --> 00:25:35

Thursday, or only a Monday or only a Thursday. That's good. Just

00:25:35 --> 00:25:39

those three things Inshallah, implement it in your life. Right?

00:25:39 --> 00:25:43

Why? Because the actions that Allah, the actions that are most

00:25:43 --> 00:25:47

beloved to Allah is that, with that we do regularly or in kala

00:25:47 --> 00:25:50

even if it is small or little, that little that you took, took

00:25:50 --> 00:25:53

from Ramadan inshallah that will shape your character, that will

00:25:53 --> 00:25:56

shape your demeanor, that will shape your personality next year,

00:25:56 --> 00:26:00

Ramadan, we can add on to that Inshallah, we can Do better now.

00:26:00 --> 00:26:03

You say, ya rab, I've I've got the three behind me now, now

00:26:03 --> 00:26:06

Inshallah, I want to go to the next three. I want to implement

00:26:06 --> 00:26:09

that in my life now, for my life now, for another year Inshallah,

00:26:09 --> 00:26:12

and then I go, and that is how the one Ramadan can just be better

00:26:12 --> 00:26:15

than the first, the previous Ramadan, and the next Ramadan can

00:26:15 --> 00:26:17

be better than the previous Ramadan. And then you can feel

00:26:17 --> 00:26:21

that sense of acceptance from Allah, but the sign of acceptance

00:26:21 --> 00:26:25

for us as we know ourselves is if we can keep up with what we have

00:26:25 --> 00:26:28

done in Ramadan, not all of it, but at least shape our life

00:26:29 --> 00:26:32

accordingly. Masha Allah, I can still recite my Quran daily. I can

00:26:32 --> 00:26:36

still perform my five times Salah in time. Masha Allah, I think I've

00:26:36 --> 00:26:39

achieved something. Ya Allah, accept it from me. Ya Allah, keep

00:26:39 --> 00:26:43

me steadfast on this path that I cannot never, ever leave this

00:26:43 --> 00:26:45

again. And inshaAllah let me topple up next year, Inshallah,

00:26:45 --> 00:26:48

with more and more and more in Wallahi that would that is how our

00:26:48 --> 00:26:52

life will shape and become. Remember Deen didn't come in one

00:26:52 --> 00:26:55

blow. The Quran was not given to Muhammad assalam, just like

00:26:57 --> 00:27:00

that, right? That's why take your time. Allah knows your intention.

00:27:01 --> 00:27:04

Allah knows where you're heading. You know, keep that intention and

00:27:04 --> 00:27:07

always renew it. You know. Inshallah, this is where I want to

00:27:07 --> 00:27:10

get. This is why I'm going to get there. Please your Arab, help me

00:27:10 --> 00:27:13

and aid me with this. Who knows? It might not be next. Ramadan,

00:27:14 --> 00:27:17

maybe in two months time. You realize I can do more because mat

00:27:17 --> 00:27:21

now, now, Allah, give barakah in time. Four months time I can do

00:27:21 --> 00:27:25

more Allah, give more Baraka in time, in Ramadan time, you are the

00:27:25 --> 00:27:28

guy that you were Ramadan previously. Now you can even work

00:27:28 --> 00:27:31

on becoming a better and more extra things that you can do for

00:27:31 --> 00:27:34

the sake of Allah. And that's how barakah comes in our life. May

00:27:34 --> 00:27:38

Allah, bless you all, have a fantastic and fantabulous life

00:27:38 --> 00:27:42

after Ramadan to the next Ramadan. Upkeep that good values that you

00:27:42 --> 00:27:47

had, you know, and if you didn't work now on it change now and say,

00:27:47 --> 00:27:50

Allah, that what has been said today, it's, you know, it struck

00:27:50 --> 00:27:55

hard in my heart. I want to change. I want to be a changed

00:27:55 --> 00:27:59

person. Let me try and strive. Strive now, Allah knows your

00:27:59 --> 00:28:03

intention. Allah, Allah was many more ramadans, Inshallah, and now

00:28:03 --> 00:28:06

the best action after Ramadan is what Allah says. Rasulullah says,

00:28:06 --> 00:28:13

whoever, whoever follows Ramadan with the six days of Shaw Allah

00:28:13 --> 00:28:17

will give him the reward of fasting an entire year. What's the

00:28:17 --> 00:28:21

main word attached to that? Guaranteed Ramadan? Are we

00:28:21 --> 00:28:24

guaranteed that our fast has been accepted?

00:28:25 --> 00:28:29

We don't know Allah's best, but if you fast the six days of Shoah,

00:28:29 --> 00:28:33

for the sake of Allah, if Allah SWT, what will happen? Allah

00:28:33 --> 00:28:37

promised us that I will give you a fast of an entire year, guaranteed

00:28:37 --> 00:28:41

you didn't even fast the year. But Allah says guaranteed my reward

00:28:41 --> 00:28:45

for you is as if you have fasted every day in the year 1445

00:28:47 --> 00:28:53

so 1446 entire year of fast, I will give you Mashallah. May Allah

00:28:53 --> 00:28:57

bless you all and keep asking you to as you will always be in Abu as

00:28:57 --> 00:29:02

Inshallah, salaam alaikum. This is a few announcements, and one

00:29:02 --> 00:29:05
