wa barakatuhu wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu wa rahmatullahi

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

wa barakatuhu wa rahmatullahi wa barak alhamdulillah, thumma

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

alhamdulillah, all the thanks and praises are due

00:00:43 --> 00:00:44

to Allah Ta'ala who gathered us on

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

this wonderful occasion, this beautiful day of Jumu

00:00:47 --> 00:00:48

'ah, the best day of the week.

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

Allah blessed us with His favour, subhanAllah, and

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

many others are deprived of this favour.

00:00:53 --> 00:00:54

And that's why we are of those, the

00:00:54 --> 00:00:56

Ummah of Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, who show

00:00:56 --> 00:00:57

gratitude to Allah Ta'ala.

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

And every week we show gratitude, inshaAllah Allah

00:00:59 --> 00:01:01

will return us to these beautiful places.

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

Ameen Ya Rabbal Alameen.

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

And today, subhanAllah, we speak about something very

00:01:05 --> 00:01:07

very interesting, mashaAllah.

00:01:08 --> 00:01:12

And our topic is, it's a unique one,

00:01:12 --> 00:01:13

right?

00:01:13 --> 00:01:16

To see the test that Allah Ta'ala

00:01:16 --> 00:01:18

placed upon the shoulders of the people.

00:01:19 --> 00:01:21

What if Allah tests us with the truth?

00:01:22 --> 00:01:25

Because normally what we feel is if we

00:01:25 --> 00:01:28

are tested, it's either a calamity, it's poverty,

00:01:29 --> 00:01:31

or it's an accident, or a loss of

00:01:31 --> 00:01:33

life, or loss of life.

00:01:34 --> 00:01:36

These and this we feel as being calamities

00:01:36 --> 00:01:37

and being trials and tests.

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

But if we think about Ibrahim alayhi sallallahu

00:01:41 --> 00:01:43

alayhi wa sallam, for example in the Qur

00:01:43 --> 00:01:48

'an, and mashaAllah it's a nice quiz, who

00:01:48 --> 00:01:50

knows where is the first place that Allah

00:01:50 --> 00:01:52

Ta'ala mentioned Ibrahim alayhi sallallahu alayhi wa

00:01:52 --> 00:01:53

sallam in the Qur'an?

00:01:53 --> 00:01:54

Suratul Baqarah.

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

Anybody knows?

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

Ufad.

00:01:59 --> 00:01:59

Just one?

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

Verse number 124.

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

Ibrahim.

00:02:06 --> 00:02:08

Allah Ta'ala speak to Ibrahim and look

00:02:08 --> 00:02:11

what Allah start of the life and the

00:02:11 --> 00:02:13

mentioning of Ibrahim alayhi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam

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

with.

00:02:13 --> 00:02:18

وَإِذْ ذِبْتَ لَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ رَبُّهُ بِكَلِمَاتٍ فَأَتَمَّهُنَّ Allah

00:02:18 --> 00:02:19

Ta'ala says that.

00:02:20 --> 00:02:21

And mention of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam

00:02:21 --> 00:02:24

when Ibrahim was tried by his Lord with,

00:02:25 --> 00:02:27

they say, kalimat.

00:02:27 --> 00:02:29

Allah Ta'ala mentions kalimat, right?

00:02:30 --> 00:02:31

And it fulfilled him.

00:02:32 --> 00:02:33

فَأَتَمَّهُنَّ Allah Ta'ala says.

00:02:34 --> 00:02:36

And that is why I mentioned that sometimes

00:02:36 --> 00:02:37

we feel that the trials and the tests,

00:02:38 --> 00:02:39

and if we listen to how Ibrahim was

00:02:39 --> 00:02:41

tested, it was by kalimat.

00:02:42 --> 00:02:45

Allah Ta'ala did not mention that we

00:02:45 --> 00:02:47

trial Ibrahim alayhi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam with

00:02:47 --> 00:02:52

him through his father being thrown into the

00:02:52 --> 00:02:52

fire.

00:02:53 --> 00:02:54

That's a calamity, that's a trial.

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

Allah Ta'ala don't mention about Ibrahim alayhi

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

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam's trial with regards to

00:03:02 --> 00:03:04

his son Ismail alayhi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam

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

that he had to slaughter.

00:03:05 --> 00:03:07

But Allah said kalimat.

00:03:08 --> 00:03:10

And the mufassireen speaks about the word kalimat.

00:03:10 --> 00:03:11

What is the kalimat?

00:03:12 --> 00:03:13

It is al-ahd.

00:03:14 --> 00:03:17

It is the covenant that we have with

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

Allah Ta'ala.

00:03:18 --> 00:03:20

The covenant of la ilaha illallah.

00:03:22 --> 00:03:26

So amazing how Allah Ta'ala introduced the

00:03:26 --> 00:03:30

grandfather of anbiya, the great great great grandfather

00:03:30 --> 00:03:32

of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.

00:03:32 --> 00:03:34

And Allah Ta'ala introduced him by saying

00:03:34 --> 00:03:38

that we have trialed and tested Ibrahim alayhi

00:03:38 --> 00:03:40

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam with kalimat, with the

00:03:40 --> 00:03:42

ahd, with the covenant.

00:03:44 --> 00:03:45

And he fulfilled it.

00:03:46 --> 00:03:49

What is our ahd with Allah Ta'ala?

00:03:51 --> 00:03:53

Every day when something happens to us, we

00:03:53 --> 00:03:54

complain.

00:03:56 --> 00:03:57

Why is this happening to me?

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

But we have a covenant with Allah Ta

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

'ala.

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

And our covenant is when we say la

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

ilaha illallah, we accept everything from Allah Ta

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

'ala.

00:04:09 --> 00:04:10

With the good or with the bad.

00:04:10 --> 00:04:11

And how does Allah test us?

00:04:11 --> 00:04:12

Allah says in the Qur'an.

00:04:13 --> 00:04:14

Right?

00:04:15 --> 00:04:21

Allah Ta'ala, He tests us in hardship

00:04:21 --> 00:04:25

and Allah Ta'ala tests us in ease.

00:04:26 --> 00:04:30

So mashallah, there is a beautiful statement of

00:04:30 --> 00:04:33

Abdurrahman ibn Auf when he mentions, and this

00:04:33 --> 00:04:37

is a sahabi, and look at the acknowledgement

00:04:37 --> 00:04:38

of a sahabi.

00:04:40 --> 00:04:42

We complain mashallah, but we acknowledge.

00:04:43 --> 00:04:45

So the sahabi Abdurrahman ibn Auf, and we

00:04:45 --> 00:04:47

all know the story of Abdurrahman ibn Auf.

00:04:48 --> 00:04:50

There is no one today that can claim

00:04:50 --> 00:04:52

that he is more rich than Abdurrahman ibn

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

Auf.

00:04:53 --> 00:04:56

No matter how much wealth you have today,

00:04:56 --> 00:04:57

you can be the richest guy and all

00:04:57 --> 00:04:59

of them together, they will never come close

00:04:59 --> 00:05:01

to the wealth that Abdurrahman ibn Auf has

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

possessed in his life.

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

And for some of us it is difficult

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

to fathom.

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

But who says this?

00:05:07 --> 00:05:08

He himself says this.

00:05:08 --> 00:05:10

Rasulullah ﷺ speaks about him like this.

00:05:11 --> 00:05:12

So we are Muslim and we accept that.

00:05:13 --> 00:05:15

He was one of the most rich ashab

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

of Rasulullah ﷺ, but he was one of

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

the sahaba that used to give in the

00:05:20 --> 00:05:22

cause of Allah all the time.

00:05:22 --> 00:05:23

All the time.

00:05:24 --> 00:05:26

He never blinked when there was a need

00:05:26 --> 00:05:27

for this ummah.

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

When the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ had a call,

00:05:30 --> 00:05:32

he did nothing twice.

00:05:32 --> 00:05:35

Another one of the sahaba that was like

00:05:35 --> 00:05:35

that, anybody knows?

00:05:37 --> 00:05:38

Uthman ibn Affan.

00:05:38 --> 00:05:39

Till today there is a waqf.

00:05:40 --> 00:05:41

If you go to Medina, you see the

00:05:41 --> 00:05:45

building of the waqf of Uthman ibn Affan.

00:05:45 --> 00:05:48

Up until today, it is looking after students.

00:05:49 --> 00:05:52

Up until today, it maintains the haram.

00:05:53 --> 00:05:56

That haram that was, you know the original

00:05:56 --> 00:05:59

haram is about 35 kilometers I think in

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

diameter.

00:06:01 --> 00:06:03

How huge is the haram of Medina today?

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

Why?

00:06:05 --> 00:06:09

The sacrifice of Uthman ibn Affan who contributed

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

and expanded not only in Medina but also

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

in Mecca.

00:06:13 --> 00:06:14

He contributed, subhanallah.

00:06:16 --> 00:06:18

Can you imagine on his scale of good?

00:06:19 --> 00:06:23

Till today, the haram is being sustained by

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

his wealth.

00:06:24 --> 00:06:27

That's why today we think we drive a

00:06:27 --> 00:06:29

posh car, we live in a posh house,

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

we're living the life, the gucci's.

00:06:34 --> 00:06:35

What's the techies nowadays?

00:06:35 --> 00:06:36

I don't know.

00:06:36 --> 00:06:37

My time was diesel.

00:06:37 --> 00:06:38

I was a diesel guy myself.

00:06:39 --> 00:06:41

I wasn't Vin Diesel, but I was a

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

diesel guy.

00:06:44 --> 00:06:45

So, Versace.

00:06:47 --> 00:06:48

What is it today?

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

Fabiani.

00:06:49 --> 00:06:50

That's today.

00:06:51 --> 00:06:52

I wish I can buy me Fabiani.

00:06:52 --> 00:06:53

It's just a wish.

00:06:53 --> 00:06:55

And then when I wish and I realize

00:06:55 --> 00:06:56

that it's too expensive for me, I say

00:06:56 --> 00:06:58

Allah, in the akhirah when I have better

00:06:58 --> 00:06:58

than this.

00:06:59 --> 00:07:02

And I feel good again, mashallah.

00:07:02 --> 00:07:04

Now we're going to drape it in the

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

akhirah, guys.

00:07:04 --> 00:07:06

We're going to yak it out, inshallah.

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

We're going to wear nice, mashallah.

00:07:08 --> 00:07:10

Your wife is not going to recognize you

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

and your husband is not going to recognize

00:07:11 --> 00:07:13

you, just because the way that you yak

00:07:13 --> 00:07:14

it.

00:07:15 --> 00:07:17

And you're not only going to yak it

00:07:17 --> 00:07:18

with clothes, you're going to yak it with

00:07:18 --> 00:07:20

a nose and eyes and hair, mashallah.

00:07:20 --> 00:07:21

You're going to even go buy that at

00:07:21 --> 00:07:22

the market.

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

Allahu Akbar.

00:07:24 --> 00:07:26

It seems funny, but it's the truth.

00:07:27 --> 00:07:30

You can beautify yourself in the marketplace in

00:07:30 --> 00:07:31

jannah.

00:07:31 --> 00:07:31

Yourself.

00:07:31 --> 00:07:36

I wonder who everybody want to look like.

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

That day I'm going to say, although you

00:07:41 --> 00:07:43

are a loveable supporter, you like this style

00:07:43 --> 00:07:44

and this drape, mashallah.

00:07:45 --> 00:07:46

Allah bless, Allah bless, inshallah.

00:07:46 --> 00:07:50

But if Abdurrahman ibn Aufi says, مُبْتَلِينَا فِي

00:07:50 --> 00:07:55

الدَّرَّةِ فَصَبَرْنَا That when we were tested with

00:07:55 --> 00:08:01

difficulty, فَصَبَرْنَا Then we practice patience.

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

So he understood and he mentions to us,

00:08:07 --> 00:08:09

in order for us to reflect, that when

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

we are, and normally this is the case,

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

when we are afflicted with difficulty, فَصَبَرْنَا We

00:08:16 --> 00:08:18

do patience because that's the natural thing to

00:08:18 --> 00:08:20

do when we listen to what Allah says.

00:08:20 --> 00:08:21

But look at him, he confesses, he says,

00:08:22 --> 00:08:27

مُبْتَلِينَا فِي الدَّرَّةِ فَلَمْ يَصْبِرْنَا He says, but

00:08:27 --> 00:08:32

when we were tested with ease, then we

00:08:32 --> 00:08:34

never practiced patience.

00:08:35 --> 00:08:36

And is that not us?

00:08:37 --> 00:08:39

When things are going good, Allah is the

00:08:39 --> 00:08:40

furthest from our mind.

00:08:40 --> 00:08:42

No, then it's I.

00:08:42 --> 00:08:44

I did this, it's mine.

00:08:44 --> 00:08:46

Do you know who I am?

00:08:46 --> 00:08:48

And all the statements come.

00:08:48 --> 00:08:50

And the chest grows a bit bigger.

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

And the muscles become a bit, you know.

00:08:53 --> 00:08:55

My grand used to say, لُبْيَمَتْ اِلْتَىٰ وَنَسَىٰ

00:08:55 --> 00:08:57

عَرْمْس You know?

00:08:57 --> 00:08:58

You know what's ilta?

00:08:58 --> 00:08:59

I don't know what's ilta in English.

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

What is that?

00:09:01 --> 00:09:02

You know what's ilta in English?

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

I don't know.

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

It's like that hard stuff you get on

00:09:04 --> 00:09:05

your fingers, yeah.

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

Calluses, calluses, yes.

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

My gran used to say, look how he's

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

walking with calluses under his armpits there.

00:09:12 --> 00:09:13

You know, he's growing that.

00:09:13 --> 00:09:14

Subhanallah.

00:09:14 --> 00:09:15

Why is he walking like that?

00:09:15 --> 00:09:16

They didn't like it.

00:09:16 --> 00:09:19

Our elders never liked for people to push

00:09:19 --> 00:09:20

out their chests.

00:09:21 --> 00:09:23

Because Allah says in the Quran, what?

00:09:24 --> 00:09:25

That don't walk on the earth.

00:09:26 --> 00:09:29

وَلَا تَمْشِي فِي الْأَرْضِ مَرْحًا Don't walk on

00:09:29 --> 00:09:30

the earth like that.

00:09:30 --> 00:09:32

Allah ta'ala despise people that walks like

00:09:32 --> 00:09:33

that, boastful.

00:09:33 --> 00:09:34

Subhanallah.

00:09:36 --> 00:09:37

And Allah ta'ala protect us from that.

00:09:37 --> 00:09:38

But yeah, listen.

00:09:39 --> 00:09:44

We should not only practice patience when we

00:09:44 --> 00:09:45

are trialed with difficulties.

00:09:45 --> 00:09:47

Because when we are in difficulty, we know

00:09:47 --> 00:09:48

who to turn to.

00:09:49 --> 00:09:50

We turn to Allah.

00:09:51 --> 00:09:53

We cry to Allah ta'ala for ease.

00:09:53 --> 00:10:02

And when the ease come, now, Then we

00:10:02 --> 00:10:03

didn't practice patience.

00:10:03 --> 00:10:05

And this is a shortcoming from us as

00:10:05 --> 00:10:06

humans.

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

Even in good times, practice patience.

00:10:12 --> 00:10:13

Be grateful.

00:10:15 --> 00:10:16

Because you have it today.

00:10:17 --> 00:10:20

But Allah is all-powerful.

00:10:20 --> 00:10:21

Tomorrow you might have nothing.

00:10:23 --> 00:10:24

Tomorrow you might look down on somebody that

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

has nothing.

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

Tomorrow Allah makes that one somebody.

00:10:29 --> 00:10:30

And then you have nothing.

00:10:31 --> 00:10:33

This is Allah ta'ala's way that Allah

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

teach us.

00:10:33 --> 00:10:37

Through the great guys in their minds.

00:10:38 --> 00:10:39

They thought that they were the greatest of

00:10:39 --> 00:10:40

people.

00:10:41 --> 00:10:42

And who did they look down at?

00:10:42 --> 00:10:45

At the anbiya that were the most humble

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

of people.

00:10:47 --> 00:10:47

And what did they want to do?

00:10:47 --> 00:10:49

They wanted to wipe them off the surface

00:10:49 --> 00:10:50

of the earth.

00:10:51 --> 00:10:52

And then Allah ta'ala turn the tides.

00:10:53 --> 00:10:55

Then Musa became one that we mentioned today,

00:10:56 --> 00:10:57

in a state of izzah and honor.

00:10:58 --> 00:10:59

Of reverence we speak about.

00:10:59 --> 00:11:00

He is a Nabi Musa.

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

Subhanallah.

00:11:03 --> 00:11:05

There is no one that cannot know the

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

story of Nabi Musa.

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

Alayhi Salatu Wassalam.

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

But if you speak about Firaun, the only

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

thing we hear about Firaun is, what a

00:11:13 --> 00:11:14

tyrant he was.

00:11:14 --> 00:11:16

All the worst things we hear about him.

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

He couldn't even be buried under the ground,

00:11:20 --> 00:11:21

because the ground don't want him.

00:11:22 --> 00:11:23

Allah kept him above the surface of the

00:11:23 --> 00:11:24

earth to show us this grace.

00:11:25 --> 00:11:26

What this grace truly is.

00:11:27 --> 00:11:28

And you think you can stand in the

00:11:28 --> 00:11:29

footsteps of Allah?

00:11:29 --> 00:11:31

Think you can play Allah and judge people

00:11:31 --> 00:11:33

the way Allah judge people?

00:11:33 --> 00:11:34

Then that is your destiny.

00:11:34 --> 00:11:35

Allah is teaching us.

00:11:35 --> 00:11:37

So be careful, don't walk in his footsteps.

00:11:38 --> 00:11:40

But ajeeb, sometimes today we still feel that

00:11:40 --> 00:11:40

we are powerful.

00:11:41 --> 00:11:43

We have no power when Allah protect us.

00:11:44 --> 00:11:46

So Allah ta'ala, the greatest, He says

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

that the greatest test that Allah ta'ala

00:11:48 --> 00:11:49

speak about is the test of the ahd.

00:11:50 --> 00:11:51

Of la ilaha illallah.

00:11:52 --> 00:11:53

And this is the truth.

00:11:53 --> 00:11:54

This is our test.

00:11:55 --> 00:11:56

Allah test us with the truth everyday.

00:11:57 --> 00:11:58

With that ahd.

00:11:58 --> 00:12:02

When Allah ta'ala asked us, Alastu bi

00:12:02 --> 00:12:02

rabbikum?

00:12:04 --> 00:12:05

Am I not your lord?

00:12:05 --> 00:12:07

Allah ta'ala asked us before creation were

00:12:07 --> 00:12:08

even sent down to earth.

00:12:09 --> 00:12:11

In the alamatul arwah, we were there together.

00:12:11 --> 00:12:13

And in one and in unison we said,

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

What?

00:12:14 --> 00:12:16

Bala, ya rabbi shahidna.

00:12:16 --> 00:12:19

We bear testimony that you are our lord

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

Allah.

00:12:20 --> 00:12:21

And then when we come to the earth,

00:12:21 --> 00:12:23

we take everything else as our lord.

00:12:25 --> 00:12:27

We consider our own efforts.

00:12:28 --> 00:12:29

We do what we want.

00:12:30 --> 00:12:32

You know, like the yahood, the Bani Israel,

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

in the time.

00:12:34 --> 00:12:34

Can you imagine this?

00:12:35 --> 00:12:37

Allah ta'ala fed them from jannah.

00:12:39 --> 00:12:40

How I wish that can happen.

00:12:42 --> 00:12:44

Allah say, Allah send the food for them

00:12:44 --> 00:12:47

from the samah on a table decorated for

00:12:47 --> 00:12:47

them from jannah.

00:12:48 --> 00:12:49

Allahu akbar.

00:12:51 --> 00:12:52

How I wish that table can come down.

00:12:52 --> 00:12:54

You know, imagine you eat the fruit of

00:12:54 --> 00:12:54

jannah.

00:12:55 --> 00:12:56

You eat the food of jannah on this

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

earth.

00:12:56 --> 00:12:57

There is nothing else that you are going

00:12:57 --> 00:12:58

to want to eat after that.

00:12:58 --> 00:12:59

You want to eat the food of jannah

00:12:59 --> 00:13:00

everyday.

00:13:00 --> 00:13:01

They had the food of jannah.

00:13:02 --> 00:13:03

What did they tell Allah?

00:13:03 --> 00:13:05

Ya rabbi, we don't want this.

00:13:05 --> 00:13:06

We want to plant our own seeds.

00:13:07 --> 00:13:09

We want to water it and we want

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

to make profits.

00:13:10 --> 00:13:12

What an arrogant nation it was.

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

They were not grateful to the ni'm.

00:13:15 --> 00:13:17

To the favours that Allah bestowed upon them.

00:13:17 --> 00:13:18

And Allah snatched it away.

00:13:18 --> 00:13:19

And now today, who is suffering?

00:13:19 --> 00:13:21

Ya Allah, how can we be like this?

00:13:21 --> 00:13:23

What suffers on my earth today.

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

Subhanallah.

00:13:25 --> 00:13:28

You know, because of the weakness of being

00:13:28 --> 00:13:28

human.

00:13:29 --> 00:13:30

And that's what we need to understand.

00:13:31 --> 00:13:32

That we are weak.

00:13:33 --> 00:13:35

We have a creator that is all powerful.

00:13:36 --> 00:13:38

And he is the only one that is

00:13:38 --> 00:13:39

in control.

00:13:39 --> 00:13:42

And he is testing us with the greatest

00:13:42 --> 00:13:43

test.

00:13:43 --> 00:13:44

And that is the test of la ilaha

00:13:44 --> 00:13:44

illallah.

00:13:45 --> 00:13:47

The test to believe in your heart.

00:13:47 --> 00:13:49

And firmly believe that there is only one

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

deity to worship and that is Allah.

00:13:52 --> 00:13:53

It's not about us.

00:13:53 --> 00:13:54

It's not about them.

00:13:55 --> 00:13:57

It's about the outcome and what the outcome

00:13:57 --> 00:13:57

is.

00:13:57 --> 00:14:00

Either you are going to be successful or

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

you are going to be unsuccessful.

00:14:02 --> 00:14:05

And that covenant, subhanallah, that we have with

00:14:05 --> 00:14:07

Allah ta'ala, we need to fulfil that

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

covenant.

00:14:08 --> 00:14:09

It's hard work.

00:14:10 --> 00:14:11

And what is that covenant?

00:14:11 --> 00:14:13

It is the way of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi

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

wa sallam.

00:14:15 --> 00:14:18

Allah ta'ala says, You want my love

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

and success?

00:14:19 --> 00:14:21

Follow him sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.

00:14:21 --> 00:14:24

If you are going to follow him, mashallah,

00:14:24 --> 00:14:25

you will fulfil this covenant.

00:14:26 --> 00:14:27

And I will grant you such a gift

00:14:27 --> 00:14:29

that you cannot imagine.

00:14:31 --> 00:14:34

Nobody saw that except Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa

00:14:34 --> 00:14:34

sallam.

00:14:36 --> 00:14:38

No ears ever heard what is happening there.

00:14:41 --> 00:14:43

No heart and mind can perceive what Jannah

00:14:43 --> 00:14:43

is about.

00:14:43 --> 00:14:45

La ilaha illallah.

00:14:45 --> 00:14:46

Do we think Jannah is cheap?

00:14:47 --> 00:14:49

Jannah is not cheap.

00:14:50 --> 00:14:51

* is cheap.

00:14:52 --> 00:14:53

* is very cheap.

00:14:54 --> 00:14:55

You want to go to *?

00:14:55 --> 00:14:56

Do what you want.

00:14:57 --> 00:14:59

Allah ta'ala is saying to you, If

00:14:59 --> 00:15:03

'al, Do what you want.

00:15:03 --> 00:15:04

Do whatever you want.

00:15:05 --> 00:15:06

And if you are going to do that,

00:15:06 --> 00:15:07

you are going to see the outcome.

00:15:07 --> 00:15:08

There is going to be a consequence for

00:15:08 --> 00:15:09

that outcome.

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

The outcome is, we are going to send

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

you in the fire of *.

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

That will be your abode forever.

00:15:16 --> 00:15:17

Allah protect us.

00:15:18 --> 00:15:20

But if you work hard, and what is

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

Jannah?

00:15:20 --> 00:15:21

It's not cheap.

00:15:21 --> 00:15:24

Jannah is sacrifice and toil and taking nonsense

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

of people.

00:15:25 --> 00:15:28

And just humble yourself, and make a thousand

00:15:28 --> 00:15:29

excuses for the other person.

00:15:29 --> 00:15:31

Although he doesn't want to make excuses for

00:15:31 --> 00:15:33

you, you still make excuses for him.

00:15:33 --> 00:15:36

Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is our greatest example.

00:15:37 --> 00:15:38

Mocked him, called him names.

00:15:39 --> 00:15:40

They did everything to him.

00:15:40 --> 00:15:42

They made his life a living * on

00:15:42 --> 00:15:42

earth.

00:15:43 --> 00:15:44

But what did he do?

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

He says, Oh Allah, I complain to you

00:15:48 --> 00:15:49

about myself.

00:15:50 --> 00:15:52

It's because of my weakness, that I cannot

00:15:52 --> 00:15:54

have an impact on these people's heart.

00:15:54 --> 00:15:55

Ya Allah, don't punish them.

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

Why?

00:15:59 --> 00:16:00

Because they don't know.

00:16:01 --> 00:16:02

Why do we have a heart to do

00:16:02 --> 00:16:03

that?

00:16:03 --> 00:16:05

Do you have a heart if somebody hurts

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

you?

00:16:05 --> 00:16:07

To say, Ya Allah, forgive him.

00:16:08 --> 00:16:10

We don't know what he's doing.

00:16:10 --> 00:16:12

If I say, Ya Allah, destroy him.

00:16:12 --> 00:16:13

Oh, he's supposed to come.

00:16:16 --> 00:16:18

That is our response.

00:16:19 --> 00:16:20

Our Nabi teaches us beautiful ways.

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

Our Rasul sallallahu alayhi wa sallam teaches us

00:16:22 --> 00:16:23

what Islam is.

00:16:24 --> 00:16:30

And through that beautiful, through that perfect akhlaq

00:16:30 --> 00:16:32

that he conducted himself with, there is an

00:16:32 --> 00:16:33

ummah today.

00:16:33 --> 00:16:37

Subhanallah, even though we find ourselves probably in

00:16:37 --> 00:16:39

the weakest state that we ever were, we

00:16:39 --> 00:16:41

are still the greatest ummah.

00:16:44 --> 00:16:45

That we must process.

00:16:46 --> 00:16:48

Today, yes we can boast about being the

00:16:48 --> 00:16:50

greatest ummah, but we are in a situation

00:16:50 --> 00:16:53

where we probably practically never were before.

00:16:56 --> 00:16:58

And Allah forgive us for our shortcomings.

00:16:59 --> 00:17:01

Because we see in front of us the

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

oppression.

00:17:02 --> 00:17:04

We can't even speak out against oppression.

00:17:06 --> 00:17:07

We fear humans.

00:17:10 --> 00:17:11

We fear our jobs.

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

We fear hunger.

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

We fear our homes are going to be

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

taken away from us.

00:17:18 --> 00:17:21

I know this is hard because some people

00:17:21 --> 00:17:22

probably in their mind say, Ya Mawlana, you

00:17:22 --> 00:17:23

can say that, but if it happens to

00:17:23 --> 00:17:27

you, Allah protect us from that.

00:17:27 --> 00:17:28

May it never happen to us.

00:17:29 --> 00:17:30

But that is what life is about today.

00:17:31 --> 00:17:33

It's only about the materialistic things that we

00:17:33 --> 00:17:34

see.

00:17:34 --> 00:17:36

Because we were taught in the West that

00:17:36 --> 00:17:37

seeing is believing.

00:17:38 --> 00:17:40

What you see, that's what you must believe.

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

La ilaha illallah.

00:17:41 --> 00:17:43

Whenever was it that a Muslim worried about

00:17:43 --> 00:17:43

hunger?

00:17:44 --> 00:17:45

Because Allah prepare us for that.

00:17:46 --> 00:17:49

Allah say, وَلَنَبْلُونَكُمْ بِشَيءٍ مِّنَ الْخَوْفُ وَالجُوعِ Sometimes

00:17:49 --> 00:17:50

you're going to be hungry, my boy.

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

Say, Alhamdulillah.

00:17:53 --> 00:17:54

And if we say, إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْ

00:17:54 --> 00:17:57

رَجِعُونَ Allah say, وَبَشِّرُوا الصَّابِرِينَ They will be

00:17:57 --> 00:17:58

glad tidings for you for practicing patience.

00:17:59 --> 00:18:01

وَإِنَّ مَعَ الْأُسْرِ يُسْرًا And when the user

00:18:01 --> 00:18:03

come after the difficulty, what do we say?

00:18:04 --> 00:18:07

الحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ And then, we can't

00:18:07 --> 00:18:08

believe, subhanallah.

00:18:08 --> 00:18:11

We don't even acknowledge the difficulty because the

00:18:11 --> 00:18:13

difficulty will be forgotten immediately.

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

Because here the ease is in front of

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

me.

00:18:16 --> 00:18:18

Allah, my Allah is still looking at me

00:18:18 --> 00:18:19

and gazing upon me.

00:18:19 --> 00:18:20

That is the happy occasion that a Muslim

00:18:20 --> 00:18:21

feel.

00:18:21 --> 00:18:23

But if you are not connected to Allah,

00:18:23 --> 00:18:25

if you are not connected to Muhammad s

00:18:25 --> 00:18:27

.a.w., then every difficulty will be a

00:18:27 --> 00:18:27

aid for you.

00:18:27 --> 00:18:30

It will be difficult for you.

00:18:30 --> 00:18:32

It will be when you complain.

00:18:33 --> 00:18:34

And you can't move forward.

00:18:34 --> 00:18:36

You go into a state of depression because

00:18:36 --> 00:18:38

the only thing that matters to us is

00:18:38 --> 00:18:38

this world.

00:18:39 --> 00:18:40

The true test is the Ahl and the

00:18:40 --> 00:18:41

covenant of Allah.

00:18:42 --> 00:18:46

Remind yourself constantly, لا إله إلا الله لا

00:18:46 --> 00:18:50

إله إلا الله The reason Allah says, أَفْضَلُ

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

الذِكْرِ حَقًّا That the best form of dhikr

00:18:54 --> 00:18:56

for you to do is لا إله إلا

00:18:56 --> 00:18:58

الله What does لا إله إلا الله do?

00:18:59 --> 00:19:00

We know this.

00:19:01 --> 00:19:02

لا إله إلا الله, the day of Qiyamah.

00:19:02 --> 00:19:03

You are going to come.

00:19:04 --> 00:19:05

Your scale is going to be there.

00:19:05 --> 00:19:06

And you are going to look and say,

00:19:06 --> 00:19:09

يا سلام I am doomed.

00:19:10 --> 00:19:11

I am doomed.

00:19:11 --> 00:19:12

I am going to *.

00:19:12 --> 00:19:13

There I am going.

00:19:13 --> 00:19:15

Subhanallah, look at all the bad actions on

00:19:15 --> 00:19:16

my scale.

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

And then the one close to Allah s

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

.w.t will be لا إله إلا الله

00:19:20 --> 00:19:23

On the opposite side of that scale.

00:19:23 --> 00:19:25

And it will outweigh the dunya and whatever

00:19:25 --> 00:19:26

it contains.

00:19:26 --> 00:19:28

That is the power of لا إله إلا

00:19:28 --> 00:19:31

الله Only that لا إله إلا الله can

00:19:31 --> 00:19:31

take you to Jannah.

00:19:32 --> 00:19:32

We know the story.

00:19:33 --> 00:19:36

And this is what we need to become.

00:19:37 --> 00:19:39

This is the true covenant that we speak

00:19:39 --> 00:19:41

about when we follow the way of Muhammad

00:19:41 --> 00:19:44

s.a.w. That two brothers will come,

00:19:44 --> 00:19:46

not little brothers, but two of the brothers

00:19:46 --> 00:19:48

of the Ummah s.a.w. will come

00:19:48 --> 00:19:49

on the day of Qiyamah.

00:19:51 --> 00:19:53

And the one brother will need one good

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

action.

00:19:53 --> 00:19:57

Just one good action to enter into Jannah.

00:19:59 --> 00:20:01

If he don't have that good action, he

00:20:01 --> 00:20:02

will enter into Jannah.

00:20:02 --> 00:20:04

And the other brother will come, he only

00:20:04 --> 00:20:05

have one good action.

00:20:07 --> 00:20:09

He's got nothing of good, only one good

00:20:09 --> 00:20:09

action.

00:20:11 --> 00:20:12

And he's going to meet up with his

00:20:12 --> 00:20:13

brother, and he looked at his brother, and

00:20:13 --> 00:20:14

he says, my brother, what is wrong?

00:20:15 --> 00:20:16

He said, I'm worried.

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

Why are you worried?

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

He said, because I only need one good

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

action to enter Jannah.

00:20:22 --> 00:20:24

And he's going to say, you know what?

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

Take my hand, man.

00:20:26 --> 00:20:28

I'm already doomed for Jannah.

00:20:29 --> 00:20:31

I only have one good action.

00:20:32 --> 00:20:33

And he's going to say, you sure, brother?

00:20:34 --> 00:20:36

Habibi, how can I enter Jannah with one

00:20:36 --> 00:20:37

good action?

00:20:37 --> 00:20:39

You take it, inshallah, you'll go to Jannah.

00:20:40 --> 00:20:41

And what do we think is going to

00:20:41 --> 00:20:41

happen?

00:20:43 --> 00:20:44

And Allah s.w.t will come and

00:20:44 --> 00:20:45

question.

00:20:45 --> 00:20:48

Allah will say, my brother, my servant, why

00:20:48 --> 00:20:49

did you do that?

00:20:51 --> 00:20:52

Inshallah, I know I'm doomed for *.

00:20:53 --> 00:20:55

That brother of mine, shame.

00:20:56 --> 00:20:57

You know, he's in a shocking state.

00:20:58 --> 00:20:59

He only need one good action.

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

So I thought, I only have one.

00:21:02 --> 00:21:03

I gave it to him, mashallah.

00:21:04 --> 00:21:05

He goes to Jannah.

00:21:06 --> 00:21:07

What is Allah's response?

00:21:08 --> 00:21:10

Allah's response to that abd of Allah is

00:21:10 --> 00:21:12

going to be, and ya Allah grant us

00:21:12 --> 00:21:13

closeness like that as brothers.

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

Look at this brother, one good action.

00:21:17 --> 00:21:18

He felt for his brother.

00:21:18 --> 00:21:20

Today we have so much good and khair

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

in our life, we feel nothing for our

00:21:21 --> 00:21:21

brothers.

00:21:22 --> 00:21:23

The only thing we can say is bad

00:21:23 --> 00:21:24

about our brothers.

00:21:24 --> 00:21:25

Allah protect us.

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

But Allah s.w.t will ask this

00:21:27 --> 00:21:31

brother, this abd of Allah, do you think

00:21:31 --> 00:21:35

for one moment that you are more merciful

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

than me?

00:21:37 --> 00:21:40

You are more merciful than me giving this

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

servant one good action?

00:21:41 --> 00:21:43

You enter Jannah with him.

00:21:44 --> 00:21:45

That is my mercy.

00:21:45 --> 00:21:48

One act, where did he perform that act?

00:21:48 --> 00:21:49

When he's lost, he's doomed.

00:21:50 --> 00:21:51

Now I've got no good actions.

00:21:52 --> 00:21:53

I'm giving that last one.

00:21:53 --> 00:21:55

Allah s.w.t shows his mercy, why?

00:21:55 --> 00:21:56

Because of what?

00:21:56 --> 00:21:58

Because of the covenant of what?

00:21:58 --> 00:21:59

He's a Muslim.

00:22:01 --> 00:22:02

La ilaha illallah.

00:22:04 --> 00:22:08

He fulfilled that by not associating partners with

00:22:08 --> 00:22:09

Allah.

00:22:10 --> 00:22:12

La ilaha illallah takes him to Jannah.

00:22:13 --> 00:22:15

Allah s.w.t show him that I

00:22:15 --> 00:22:17

am more merciful than any being.

00:22:18 --> 00:22:20

So enter with your brother into Jannah.

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

May we be true brothers of one another.

00:22:23 --> 00:22:25

We will be tested with the truth every

00:22:25 --> 00:22:26

day of our lives.

00:22:27 --> 00:22:29

The question is, do we see the truth?

00:22:31 --> 00:22:32

Is life really about us?

00:22:33 --> 00:22:36

Is life really about 60 years, 70 years

00:22:36 --> 00:22:36

you're gonna live?

00:22:37 --> 00:22:39

MashaAllah, you're still proud about the 60, 70

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

years?

00:22:40 --> 00:22:42

How much good did you do in the

00:22:42 --> 00:22:42

60 years?

00:22:43 --> 00:22:44

What are you gonna present to Allah?

00:22:45 --> 00:22:47

You want to present to Allah 70 years

00:22:47 --> 00:22:48

of good actions that you've done?

00:22:48 --> 00:22:50

You think that is going to change Allah

00:22:50 --> 00:22:51

s.w.t and His greatness?

00:22:52 --> 00:22:53

Allahu Akbar.

00:22:55 --> 00:22:57

Allah s.w.t is the greatest.

00:22:58 --> 00:22:59

He doesn't need our good actions.

00:23:00 --> 00:23:01

We need Allah.

00:23:03 --> 00:23:05

We need Allah, Jamaat-e-Muslim.

00:23:06 --> 00:23:07

More today than ever before.

00:23:09 --> 00:23:12

Let's fulfill that true covenant of la ilaha

00:23:12 --> 00:23:13

illallah.

00:23:14 --> 00:23:17

You hear bad, turn away from it.

00:23:18 --> 00:23:20

You hear people speaking bad about your brother,

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

turn away from it.

00:23:21 --> 00:23:24

People that are fitna mongers, stay away from

00:23:24 --> 00:23:25

them.

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

The only thing that they can do is

00:23:27 --> 00:23:28

create fitna.

00:23:29 --> 00:23:31

And we have a covenant with Allah, la

00:23:31 --> 00:23:32

ilaha illallah.

00:23:32 --> 00:23:33

We have a prophet that show us we

00:23:33 --> 00:23:36

can't be a part of this that is

00:23:36 --> 00:23:36

happening.

00:23:37 --> 00:23:39

And today they come in funny disguises.

00:23:41 --> 00:23:42

They come in disguises.

00:23:43 --> 00:23:46

They speak in tongues that you want to

00:23:46 --> 00:23:46

hear.

00:23:46 --> 00:23:48

Because they are most eloquent in speech.

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

But what they're doing is tafriq bain al

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

ummah.

00:23:51 --> 00:23:53

They create division in the ummah.

00:23:53 --> 00:23:56

Where today, more than ever, the ummah need

00:23:56 --> 00:23:57

to get together.

00:23:57 --> 00:23:59

The only thing they focus on is see

00:23:59 --> 00:24:00

what He's doing.

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

See what they are doing.

00:24:01 --> 00:24:02

They are doomed for this, they are doomed

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

for that.

00:24:03 --> 00:24:04

You mustn't go there, you mustn't go there.

00:24:04 --> 00:24:05

That is life.

00:24:05 --> 00:24:06

Allahu akbar.

00:24:07 --> 00:24:10

We have a greater, greater, greater, greater reality.

00:24:10 --> 00:24:13

That reality is la ilaha illallah muhammad rasulallah.

00:24:14 --> 00:24:16

That reality is that we need to unite

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

and stand together as brothers.

00:24:17 --> 00:24:19

We don't have time for this fitna mongering

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

anymore.

00:24:20 --> 00:24:22

Now the time is there's a cause that

00:24:22 --> 00:24:23

brings the community together.

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

The cause of Palestine.

00:24:25 --> 00:24:27

The cause of Gazans.

00:24:27 --> 00:24:28

Which we've heard in the week, I spoke

00:24:28 --> 00:24:29

about the hadith.

00:24:29 --> 00:24:30

The hadith of Gaza.

00:24:31 --> 00:24:34

I spoke about, and Sheikh Ibrahim Gabriel beautifully

00:24:34 --> 00:24:35

mentioned the hadith.

00:24:35 --> 00:24:37

Where he broke down in tears.

00:24:37 --> 00:24:40

Where Allah ta'ala mentions that there's going

00:24:40 --> 00:24:41

to be a group of people in a

00:24:41 --> 00:24:42

certain place.

00:24:42 --> 00:24:43

They ask, ya rasulallah, what place is this?

00:24:44 --> 00:24:45

He says, baytul maqdis.

00:24:46 --> 00:24:48

And that's what is surrounding it, in the

00:24:48 --> 00:24:49

surrounding areas.

00:24:49 --> 00:24:51

That is where the people will come.

00:24:51 --> 00:24:53

That they will fight for this ummah.

00:24:53 --> 00:24:55

And they will be in difficulty.

00:24:55 --> 00:24:57

The Prophet shallallahu alaihi wa sallam said, although

00:24:57 --> 00:24:59

it will be so difficult for them, they

00:24:59 --> 00:25:00

will never give up on the cause of

00:25:00 --> 00:25:01

la ilaha illallah.

00:25:02 --> 00:25:03

How can we not stand with the people

00:25:03 --> 00:25:04

like that?

00:25:04 --> 00:25:06

When it is the words of your nabi

00:25:06 --> 00:25:08

and my nabi, that is encouraging us to

00:25:08 --> 00:25:09

stand with them.

00:25:09 --> 00:25:11

Today we ask for them, ya salam.

00:25:12 --> 00:25:14

You know, there's a thousand questions that go

00:25:14 --> 00:25:15

through our mind.

00:25:15 --> 00:25:17

You know, when Rasul shallallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:25:17 --> 00:25:18

say, if you can't be there, and we

00:25:18 --> 00:25:19

know we can't be there.

00:25:20 --> 00:25:22

Then let the fire burn and the lanterns

00:25:22 --> 00:25:24

burn in masjidul aqsa.

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

Send, send, send.

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

Your intention is khair, your intention is good.

00:25:29 --> 00:25:31

You do it, Allah sees that.

00:25:33 --> 00:25:35

Don't let shaytan, you know.

00:25:35 --> 00:25:37

Allah speaks, ya salam, I can speak for

00:25:37 --> 00:25:38

hours.

00:25:38 --> 00:25:40

wa la tattabi'u khutuwati shaytan.

00:25:40 --> 00:25:41

He's busy with us now, he's with satira.

00:25:42 --> 00:25:43

The imam prayed for me at the field.

00:25:44 --> 00:25:46

And that's why I'm ending off.

00:25:46 --> 00:25:48

I don't want you to follow that.

00:25:49 --> 00:25:50

May Allah ta'ala forgive us for our

00:25:50 --> 00:25:51

shortcomings.

00:25:51 --> 00:25:53

Let us renew the covenant with Allah.

00:25:54 --> 00:25:56

Make tajdeed of la ilaha illallah.

00:25:57 --> 00:25:59

And whenever the bad thoughts come to mind,

00:25:59 --> 00:26:01

and you hear bad, say la ilaha illallah.

00:26:01 --> 00:26:03

No man, we are the ummah of Muhammad

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

sallallahu alaihi wasallam.

00:26:03 --> 00:26:04

We can't tolerate this.

00:26:05 --> 00:26:06

And then we move on.

00:26:06 --> 00:26:07

And we do good.

00:26:07 --> 00:26:08

And all the khair that we do for

00:26:08 --> 00:26:10

the sake of Allah, as long as Allah

00:26:10 --> 00:26:11

knows in your heart that you are doing

00:26:11 --> 00:26:13

right, and you are doing for Allah's sake,

00:26:13 --> 00:26:15

you carry on with the good that you

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

do.

00:26:15 --> 00:26:16

And you bring people close, and you bring

00:26:16 --> 00:26:18

people to Allah ta'ala's house, and you

00:26:18 --> 00:26:19

bring people to Allah ta'ala's deen.

00:26:20 --> 00:26:21

That is the right thing to do.

00:26:21 --> 00:26:22

People that chase you away from that, we

00:26:22 --> 00:26:23

don't have time for that.

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

And Allah bless us.

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

Allah bless you inshallah ta'ala.

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

Hayyakumullah.

00:26:27 --> 00:26:29

There is just a few announcements that I

00:26:29 --> 00:26:30

want to make inshallah ta'ala.

00:26:31 --> 00:26:32

And then we will carry on with the

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

adhan.

00:26:34 --> 00:26:35

Inshallah ta'ala.

00:26:37 --> 00:26:41

We have a paper sign demonstration today, this

00:26:41 --> 00:26:42

afternoon at 5pm.

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

Inshallah ta'ala.

00:26:44 --> 00:26:45

I don't need to speak much about this.

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

Please come out and support inshallah ta'ala.

00:26:48 --> 00:26:50

We have a taraquz.

00:26:51 --> 00:26:53

Yes, taraquz that will take place at our

00:26:53 --> 00:26:54

masjid, masjid tuba.

00:26:54 --> 00:26:56

It will be presented by Mawlana Siraj Giri.

00:26:57 --> 00:26:59

Inshallah ta'ala starting the 27th of October.

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

And then it will be the 3rd of

00:27:01 --> 00:27:02

November inshallah.

00:27:02 --> 00:27:05

Among the 20th of October, the 27th of

00:27:05 --> 00:27:06

October, and the 3rd of November.

00:27:06 --> 00:27:08

So next week inshallah we start with the

00:27:08 --> 00:27:08

schools.

00:27:08 --> 00:27:10

I think it's imperative for us, if you

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

don't know taraq, you never studied taraq, this

00:27:13 --> 00:27:14

is where you need to be.

00:27:14 --> 00:27:16

Ya Allah, there is a pandemic when it

00:27:16 --> 00:27:17

comes to taraq.

00:27:19 --> 00:27:20

It's crazy what is happening out there.

00:27:20 --> 00:27:22

The smallest thing, people just want to leave

00:27:22 --> 00:27:24

their relationships with their spouses.

00:27:25 --> 00:27:26

There is a reason why Allah ta'ala's

00:27:26 --> 00:27:28

mission says, and this is a weak hadith,

00:27:28 --> 00:27:30

but he says that the word taraq shakes

00:27:30 --> 00:27:31

the arsh of Allah ta'ala.

00:27:32 --> 00:27:33

It shakes the arsh of Allah.

00:27:33 --> 00:27:35

Are we comfortable to shake the arsh because

00:27:35 --> 00:27:36

of Allah's anger?

00:27:36 --> 00:27:37

Allah protect us.

00:27:38 --> 00:27:41

So inshallah the youngsters please, you know, attend

00:27:41 --> 00:27:41

the schools.

00:27:41 --> 00:27:43

Mawlana Siraj Giri is a well known, he

00:27:43 --> 00:27:45

is part of the fatwa department, or the

00:27:45 --> 00:27:46

Muslim Jesus Council as well inshallah ta'ala.

00:27:46 --> 00:27:50

And then our masjid, madrasa, food and funfair,

00:27:50 --> 00:27:51

it is this week inshallah.

00:27:51 --> 00:27:54

Come out in your numbers, support Allah's house,

00:27:54 --> 00:27:55

support the madrasa.

00:27:55 --> 00:27:58

Inshallah ta'ala, everything that you are doing

00:27:58 --> 00:28:00

and contributing is for a good cause.

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

We always try to encourage everyone that when

00:28:03 --> 00:28:05

you come, be within the limits, be within

00:28:05 --> 00:28:07

the boundaries, subhanallah.

00:28:07 --> 00:28:09

But we must understand that we are a

00:28:09 --> 00:28:10

social nation.

00:28:10 --> 00:28:11

The Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was

00:28:11 --> 00:28:12

a social being.

00:28:13 --> 00:28:14

The Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had

00:28:14 --> 00:28:15

to interact with people.

00:28:15 --> 00:28:19

But there was obviously verifications why he interacted

00:28:19 --> 00:28:20

with people.

00:28:20 --> 00:28:25

Don't go on a bandwagon, There are limits

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

and there are people that are watching and

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

mashallah their parents are here, and our wives

00:28:28 --> 00:28:29

are here, and our husbands are here.

00:28:30 --> 00:28:33

Alhamdulillah we are doing and we always encourage

00:28:33 --> 00:28:34

these boundaries.

00:28:34 --> 00:28:36

So let us always stick to our boundaries

00:28:36 --> 00:28:37

and alhamdulillah we do it for the sake

00:28:37 --> 00:28:38

of Allah ta'ala.

00:28:38 --> 00:28:40

All the khair bringing the community together.

00:28:40 --> 00:28:42

May Allah reward us for our good intentions

00:28:42 --> 00:28:42

inshallah.

00:28:43 --> 00:28:43

Jazakumullahu khairan.

00:28:43 --> 00:28:44

Allah bless you.
