Alhamdulillah. Alhamdulillah meant the wakalu Ali when Abu Asmaa,
Muhammad
Salla,
greet everyone
with the most beautiful greeting,
The greeting of Islam as well as the greeting of Islam, as well as
the greeting of Jannah. Assalamu, Alaikum, warahmatullahi, taala,
wabarakatu, Alhamdulillah.
How's everyone doing?
MashaAllah, what a beautiful day we have. Alhamdulillah, after the
Rahaman Taala descended upon us today, Allah gives us a little bit
of a breather with some nice Masha Allah womb with Allah. Us always
to be enveloped in the wombs of Allah's mercy. Amin, I mean,
jamaatul, muslimin, we're living in trying times, and the question
comes about that a believer should always practice patience. But
what? What do Allah mean by practicing patience. You know, we
living in such a time that we witness genocide. We literally see
how people are being massacred and people keeping silent. This is
ajib. This is unheard of in the time in our history, especially in
the times of Rasulullah sallallahu, alayhi wa sallam was
the one that came to teach us that we should stand for justice. And
was he not among those who was most just in he's saying,
sallAllahu sallam, he came to teach us how we should act and how
we should be conduct ourselves when we see oppression happening
in front of us, how we should conduct ourselves. And was he not
as Allah calls him, uswatun Hassan. He was the best of
examples. He would put himself in his life on the line for people
when they were oppressed, and he would stand against the oppressor.
And this was not strange when it came only in the time of the
Prophet saw them. It happened centuries and centuries prior to
Rasulullah, sallAllahu, sallam. All of us know the story of Musa
alays, what a tyrant lived in his time, burying the children alive.
Why? Because he wanted power. Is that not sounding familiar today?
Killing people? Why? Because we want to be in power. We want to
have all the power and the might in the world. And we start to
think And subhanAllah, how amazing it is. Allah open the hearts of
even those who don't believe in Islam. Allah says about those who
are the Orthodox Jews of today. You know, they understand Islam,
but they don't follow Islam. But what do they say that they try to
let us worship this flag, this flag, you know, Israel flag? Why
the flag is even in the synagogues nowadays. So we don't worship God
anymore. We worship the flag of Israel. Israel is gone to them
now. And this is, you know, the very, very intention of Zionism,
trying to steer people away from what truly Allah is and how we
truly should believe in Allah. But what happened to practicing
patience? Is this the right thing for us to do? Why is it always
better to practice patience? Why is it always better? Do we know
why? Let us mention what Allah advise us, and it was revealed
upon Rasulullah from the greatest of the angels, mean Allah, from
Allah. So this is direct information for us from our Lord
Allah. And Allah says, bad Rajin was spill wama, saburu, Ila bilah.
Can you imagine how beautiful Allah speaks and describes
patience. Allah says, and be patient. Who's Allah speaking to
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, who is Muhammad Sallallahu
Sallam to us, the one that we emulate, the one that we follow
till the Day of Qiyamah. And Allah says, Muhammad sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam, practice patience. Practice patience, why Allah says
and your patience is not but through Allah.
Think about it, our practicing patience is nothing but through
Allah, our total reliance we placed on Allah by pray.
This impatience is not about us. We are going through that when a
lot mentions, well enough, Shaymin alhov, well your when says
Raba sheriz sabirim, and that patience that you are practicing
is through Allah.
Allah is, firstly, the one that allow us to practice patience,
because people can be very, very you know,
patience is utterly equation for some people and something
happened. Why?
Who does he stuff? I this is our reaction to win a trial before us.
And when the trial before us, what we do. In
Allah says you should respond. But in Ali Lahore, nothing belongs to
you. You belong to Allah. In Ali La we belong to Allah, surely,
Allah says definitely, you belong to me, and Allah return to me this
trial that I taste placing upon you is what it's but the test for
you, and if you pass the test, I'll be happy with you. I'll be
happy with you. Allah will be pleased with the ones who practice
patience. If Can you imagine Ibrahim alaihi salatu wasalam
placing his son laying down, turning him to the side, looking
in his face, taking the object of cutting, and he is going to start
to cut now. And he tells his child that I saw you in a room, yeah, in
a vision that I need to slaughter you. And what did his son say? If
Alma talk Maru, oh, my beloved father, you now ask questions.
When it comes to Allah, where would you find me. He said,
Ismael, you'll find me among those people who practice patience. You
just do the action that Allah require for you, from you, my
beloved Father, to do, cut my throat. No problem, for the sake
of Allah, you'll find me where. Look how beautiful Allah speak.
Say to son, speak. He said, you'll find me among the people who
practice patience. Would I be able to do that?
We are being taught by the best of Allah's creations, the Wallahi. We
think that we go through more difficult trials.
Masha, Allah,
the verse came alive.
Allah.
Mean, we need to practice patience. Allah, allow us to
practice patience. I mean, but can we imagine the state that we would
find ourselves in if something like that should happen to us? We
see this by the best and the cream of the crop of Allah's creation,
they did not blink an eye. Why? Because the submarines through
Allah. We turn to Allah in difficulty. We turn to Allah when
we are in a state of goodness and khair, everything revolves around
our Creator, Allah.
This is what the prior generations understood those who live among
the Ambia. Can we imagine Musa alay salatu Islam? You know, he
comes to the Red Sea. He's standing in front of the sea and
his followers. He's telling me, can you see we followed? You look
at where we find ourselves. Now, it's because of you. Did Musa alay
salatu waslam Leave heart and lose heart. He said, I'm telling you
that my Allah, he's with me
in such a state. Here's the army. They're coming to destroy us. They
practically on our doorstep now just to finish it off. And Allah
brings ease at that last moment, why? What is sober a Saddam in a
sudden ALLAH SubhanA is when the strike of the difficulty comes.
That very moment Allah looks, and Allah wanted to see the reaction,
the reaction of the servant of Allah, and what's the reaction?
We put our complete reliance on the Creator. Why? Because it's not
me looking after Allah's Deen. It is Allah looking after Allah's
Deen. But Allah chosen Allah wills to look after his deen and to aid
his Deen. And that is why Allah is clear in his words that in tan sur
rulellah, that if you are going to be of those who aid and assist the
dean of Allah, Allah grant you aid. Allah will grant you victory.
And where's the victory? It's close, and that is what we see
today. You know, the submarine is through Allah, and then Allah goes
on by saying, Wallahi,
him, wala attacked me, my croon Allah. Allah says and do not
grieve.
Do not grieve. Don't be saddened by what is happening. Yes, we are
human. We see the massacre happening in front of us, but
Allah gives us contentment of the heart. Your suffering is through
me. Your Reliance must be on.
Me understand that I know what's happening. Understand that this is
only a way to strengthen the Ummah, to strengthen the religion
of Islam, Wallahi. Do we not see that?
You know, I have, we have one of our musalis that just moved to
Australia. You say it is the most IG thing every week, you see you
come to Jumaa, you go to a watt in the masjid. People set after the
Salah, and they say, a shadow
Allah,
rasulallah. Why you ask them, Palestinians,
with the Palestinians, and we are crying. Why they doing this? We
moping. Yes, we make dua for victory, but we are happy because
Allah is in control. What do we practice patience through Allah
with our reliance on Allah, because Allah says, Don't you
ever, ever grieve and be saddened with what is happening, with what
they in the way that they conduct themselves, just you raise your
hands at night and cry for Allah to bring his help and his aid,
because that is what Allah require from us. We need to turn to him
always. Wala Taku Phil says, And do not be in distress. Do not be
in distress. Don't act worse than the infidels. Don't act worse than
the oppressors. We are not going to go out here and we are going to
harm anybody that's innocent because of what others are doing.
No, we are not acting like that. We are Muslim. We are mukmin. We
show our best conduct out there. We saw what Islam is all about,
you know, and that's why, immediately after Juma today,
everybody that has five minutes of their time inshallah will show our
greatness out there, that we stand with the Palestinians. We stand
with rasa, we stand with Allah's creation for what, for freedom and
for victory, because we have been created with rights and with what
rights, with Allah's rights, with the creator's rights, not man made
rights, and we will stand for what it is when it comes to Allah
rights, I mean, I mean in Allah says, You do not be in distress
over what they conspire, they plot, they plan. Look at the
latest video. What did he say? He said that, no, we're trying to get
the people back to the north now, and we will rebuild lies. Blatant
liar. You've been lying for so many years. You think we're going
to believe you now. You think you'll be able to change the
narrative. Now, for years, the narrative was yours. Today, it's
our narrative. Our narrative are being displayed every week. People
see the heart today, we are not listening to you. We are not
nobody will listen to you. Who would we listen to? We listen to
the words of Allah. You can plot, but Allah wala, plotted and you
planned today, you will see that Allah's plan played out and is
playing out to be the best plan.
We are the believers in Allah, and we will never turn away from
Allah. Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told him, you can
give us your wealth and you can give us everything. He went as far
as saying, Bring me the sun in my right hand, and you can give me
the moon in my left hand. But I will never forsake the dream of
Allah. And who's that? That's us, say, Allah, ILAHA, illallah,
Muhammad Rasulullah, you can take away our lives. You can take away
our positions. We are not created for this world. We see a greater,
greater abode for us awaiting. We cannot wait to meet our Creator.
Allah loves to meet us. If we love to meet him, don't be scared to
die, because it's inevitable we are going to die. They are going
to test every one of us, and sometimes Allah tests based on our
Imaan so mashaAllah, if you have great and good ima and faith in
Allah, your test will be difficult. It will be difficult,
but the outcome of the trial that sobre that you have done through
Allah, you will see, as the statement goes, the one who
practice patience will give Chanda,
the one who practice patience will get Jannah in Allah. Allah love
the people who persevere and practice patience. And on top of
that, what do we do? We are doing the Palestinians showing the world
with plakas, showing our small little children and educate them
about Masjid Al Aqsa and about the Holy Land of Masjid Al Aqsa,
beitul, mahdis, Jerusalem. We speak about it and teach them the
history. What do we think is going to happen? Allah is pleased. Allah
Tala sees Masha. Allah. They are not forgetting their roots.
They are not forgetting their roots. Our small children.
Don't fear a child. Don't lie. What does this child
say?
We're
instilling that in such a young age. What do we think tomorrow?
They're going to stand for, they're going to stand for Haqq.
They're going to say, you can take my blood. I'll give it happily
for. I'll give it happily for the deen of Islam. No problem.
This is hard and tough talk, but
we need to speak. We need to speak about this, because that's why
we've been created. We are the ones that stand against
oppression. We will not be complacent, and we will not accept
when people oppress us, we will stand up against oppression. I
mean, Amin, we are the nation of Allah and Muhammad Sallallahu.
He's the best of Allah's creation. He feared no one but Allah. And
Allah says in the Quran, Yasha, and we do not fear illAllah.
No one but Allah. No one but Allah. And how can we do this? We
need to start making time. We need to indulge in dhikr as much as we
can. You know, somebody does something wrong to us. Don't say
why you do wrong. Say we see something great happening.
Subhanallah, Masha, Allah, everything becomes the Dhikr of
Allah. We start to speak
Allah, say,
we start speaking with dhikr. Allah, what do you think will
happen to our Imaan? What will you think? And do you think is going
to happen to those who donate Iman, they will start shivering
out of fear because they know that this is a nation to deal with.
This is the Nation of Muhammad. This is not the people that you
can just bamboozle with money and stuff today. Subhanallah so said
we as ourselves, throw the money in front of our own people for
power and might Allah protect us. Let us be the helpers. Let's be
the Ansar. It does be those people who said, What did they say?
They said that Rasul Salam is mentioned,
that if you are of the Ansar today, and the muhajiri is
present, assist and ate them. How did they assist and aid? They gave
half of everything that they own without a fear of poverty, without
a fear of nothing my brother needs. There we go, my brother.
What did Allah do? Allah brought the world to their feet. They
became among the richest of people. But the richest of people
was not in their hearts. The richest of their hearts, they
understood, is better for us as believers. This is nothing
deception for us. Let's get rid of it.
Ali's words, was a it you want in front of me, but I will not want
you. I want to be with Allah. I want to be with Muhammad, Abu
Asmaa law. This should make us happy, because we are going to be
the people that will be with Allah one day, our Creator, don't forget
that we have forgotten that our purpose is Allah. Our lives should
be for Allah, our death for Allah, in our worship, our prayer,
everything that we do,
every ritual that we do, our lives, wa mamati, our death.
It is
only for Allah. Shariqah, never you can do what you want, but we
will not describe him partner to Allah. This is our Allah. We love
him. We will not sell the deen of Allah for anything, even if we
take our lives.
This is Islam. I'm reminding us who we are standing for, Haqq.
Have that patience with Allah. Through Allah, they can plan and
plot against us. Wallahi, the ultimate plan is Allah
and the Day of Qiyamah. Will see it. And what will we see? We will
see joy, happiness, light, beauty, enjoyment, Jannah waiting for us,
Muhammad, sallAllahu, Sam, smiling with us, walking through the doors
of Jannah and see and witnessing Allah. What can be greater than
that change our lives around Subhanallah, I want to say so much
more just immediately after this, after
Allah speaks about the people of patience, Look how beautifully
Allah speaks now. Allah says, Indeed, surely most certainly
don't ever, ever doubt this. Allah is with those who fear Him and
those who are doers of good. How can we fear the creation when we
have the Creator? We fear Allah.
We only fear Allah. We.
And we will only fear Allah, and you will not be able to take that
from us, because the fear of Allah is way beyond you. You don't even
understand the fear of Allah. You think we fear Allah because Allah
is a monster. No, we fear Allah because we understand, if we obey
Him, there's something great that's waiting for us. We will
receive Allah and such a great reward
that you will never be able to smell. We know that we are the
believers Allah. Speak about the good doers in Allah,
Allah, the people who does good. What are we doing? Jamaat, Al
muslimin, are we doing good? Are we practicing good? Are we being
good? Alive again, because today, Wherever you look, it's bad
happening. Now, the other night, they say they want to advertise,
advertise a bottle of water, but the advertisement go with haram.
They advertise a car, something that drives you around. They show
you a woman who's naked. Allah, Allah, protect our women. That's
why Islam is so such a beautiful thing. Allah honors are women.
They will not be like the infidels. They will not be like
those who will sell everything for what, for a little bit of fame,
and tomorrow, when they close their eyes, what happened? Nobody
evens remember them. Nobody remembers them. Look, we are the
only nation that can speak about people, people that were great,
people that are documented. Books have been written about these
people. We study the books of these people, and the books of the
people that we study is which books. It's the books that brings
us closer to Allah. Show us a nation like that. Show us a nation
that can prove that when I speak and I quote something that I can I
can back it up upon the Muhammad from my teacher to his teacher to
his teacher, to his teachers, to a great teacher, to a greater
teacher, to one of the greatest teachers and the best teacher,
Muhammad Sallallahu, can show us that today, go and find any
religion who can prove this to you. No one today, the only book
that is for certainty that we can say that this is the word of
Allah. They're trying for centuries, 1445
years, they're trying to find fault in this book, till today,
they can't. Allahu Akbar is just not great for us. Is just not
enough proof for us that we are the nation that should stand up.
We are the light that we need to spread around to people to see
that this is the light, and they must say that this is what I want
to be. There's no other way. There cannot be any other way. The only
way is the way of Islam. The only way is the way of Imam. Jamaat al
must mean these verses that we quote. It is so relevant to the
Palestinians. Allah says to them, was bir wa mall and be patient, O
my Palestinian children, and your patience is not.
Your patience is not Allah, Allah, don't you know Allah is not that
Allah don't see. Allah knows the person depends on of those who are
the oppresses. Allah knows that. Allah says, Have patience. You
know what I meant to Muhammad, sallAllahu, Salah,
when you came with the word of Allah, you were starved. What is
happening? They're starving our children, our parents, our
mothers, our fathers. Did this not happen to Muhammad, Salah sallam.
It happened up until such a degree that they had to eat the leaves of
the trees. It's not happening. It's happening today. How? What
the honorable life they have? What the honorable life our
Palestinians have to go through, exactly what our messenger,
sallAllahu, sallam, has been through. But what did Allah bring?
What did Allah bring after this, Allah brought this, Dean of Islam
to have spirit to the four corners of the world, to the four corners
of the world. What are we going to do? We're going to bright up that
light again in the four corners of the world, in sha Allah, Ameen,
through ourselves, because today we make intention ya rab, and
through our children that we are preparing for tomorrow. Ya Allah,
accept us and accept our families and accept our offspring.
Inshallah, that we should only be of those who are obedient servants
to ya rab. We should be the true followers of your master and your
creation, the cream of the cup of your creation. Mat, Allah's
master. He is our master, Salah salinam, but ya rab, we will
follow him, sallAllahu, alas, and we will be obedient to Him,
because showing obedience to Muhammad, sallAllahu, sallam, is
showing obedience to Allah. We have the Nation of Islam. We
should not let the day go by? Did we cry for Allah's victory to
come? She limited the day goodbye to ask Allah to grant us to be of
the truly, true people who practice patience, truly for Allah
sake and after patience, we know that Bashir is sobbing, the
Bashar, the glad tidings is about to come.
Don't ever, ever think, as the judge that is left there is from
our judge present. Don't think that you dua has fallen on deaf
ears. Allah is all hearing. Allah heard you to us, and Allah will
not forsake you to us. Allah will accept you to us. I mean, Allah
will accept that the victory.
Will come to the Palestinians. May Allah allow victory to come soon.
Inshallah wanted to carry on, but inshallah next, next week, we will
carry on with this topic. This is a hot topic. This is a topic that
we will try to bring and revive every week, where we should
strengthen ourselves with our faith and turn to Allah and only
believe in him and only fearing him and not running after this
world. You know, life is short. Previous nations lived for 1000
years. We only have 60, between 60 and 70 years, subhanAllah, we have
some that is past that. Time is coming very quick. I was
yesterday, 15 years old. I'm 20. Today.
I'm old. I'm getting old. Subhanallah, may Allah allow us to
reach good old age. But of those who when we reach old age, Allah
is pleased with us. We are pleased with him. Allah, this is such
beautiful verses. Allah, if you just read that, this is so
beautiful. There is so much to say, but Juma is just the platform
to express everything that we want to but at least it is something
that can bring us closer to Allah. Allah, allow us to be close to Him
always inshaAllah, and let us witness the plan of Allah that
will play out soon. I mean some announcement, Alhamdulillah
calendars, is up for grabs, Allah.
I know we came prepared this week, we are going to spend inshallah in
the course of Allah, in order for this Masjid to still do what he
does Inshallah, for the Imam and the Committee of this masjid and
the community Inshallah, that we should always keep the house of
Allah alive, Amin. I mean, Amin, and then we have
the demonstration immediately after Jumaa today, immediately
after Juma, Inshallah, two minutes, three minutes, five
minutes. Let us just show, you know, just show one or two
minutes. I'm here Inshallah, I mean, and then, oh God, will take
place tonight. Alhamdulillah, it sold out. Allah bliss. I know
there's some people that would love to be there. Some people say
maybe we didn't have been able to because of the price of Allah. He,
you know, there's different things that we can contribute to. Doesn't
need to be a qaadin, you know, it can be anything. This is just one
form of
fundraising that is happening transpiring. There will be many
more, and there was many, and Allah has accepted many much from
you already. Alhamdulillah, so don't feel despondent if you
couldn't contribute to this, because another opportunity will
arise. And Inshallah, in that opportunity, Allah knows maybe
that we would have been more sincere in the next opportunity
than we are in this one and the people that's going now, Allah
knows that they are very sincere in what they are doing. Now we
always have, always good thought of our brothers. Inshallah, accept
the good thought of ours. I mean for others always. And we do that
others, others will also have good thought from us as well.
Inshallah, may Allah mean, and then jamat may have a drive from a
before I forget. You know, it is a drive for soaps and for face
cloths, please. We have to, you know, the boxes are empty. It's
very strange that the boxes are empty. This is an opportunity for
who? For those who are orphans, who was an orphan, we don't want
to go out to give to the orphans whom says that I'm being the
orphan. We are like this. So close. We are no separation
between two fingers. We can't give a face cloth, or we can't give
soaps for the poor and the destitute and the orphans. Let us
make intention if everybody in the masjid today give one o'clock,
there's 100 that we received Alhamdulillah bestows, but there's
250 that we still need to give. But the target is not 250 the
target can be 1000 why not? But it's a face club or face class.
And so also as much as we can give, Let us inshaAllah contribute
Allah bliss.
Come In.
