			Hey,
		
00:00:01 --> 00:00:01
			everyone.
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:05
			Chef
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:14
			Bismillah Alhamdulillah wa salatu salam ala Rasulillah Salam Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
		
00:00:15 --> 00:01:07
			Allah subhanaw taala with his ultimate and most beautiful wisdom chose particular times and
particular places to have a virtue over others. So for example, MK and Medina have a virtue over
other places a person who offers a Salah in Masjid Al Haram has a reward of equal to 100,000
prayers, and that is a virtue over Almudena, which of a person offers their Salah there it is equal
to 1000 Press. So Allah subhanaw taala chooses certain places over others. Similarly, Allah subhanaw
taala chooses certain seasons certain times in the year, which have a virtue over others. Now from
this very special times, is the month of April hedger, which is the last of the Islamic months in
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:54
			the calendar year. Now we know that Allah subhanaw taala has told us in the Quran, that there are 12
months in the year, and that these 12 months were decreed by Allah subhanaw taala Yo Ma halacha sama
word he went out that the day that ALLAH SubhanA, Allah created the heavens and the earth, that
however, mean her Arbitron forum. However, there are four of these 12 months, which are sacred
months. Now, what do we mean by sacred months? First and foremost, we need to identify what are
these sacred months, there are three which are together, and then there is one which is on its own.
So we have towards the end of the year, we have the period, with all hedger and Muharram. These are
		
00:01:54 --> 00:02:41
			three of the four sacred months. And then the seventh month of the standard calendar is Raja. So,
these are the four sacred months within the, from these four will hedger has the greatest status
from these particular months. So Allah subhanaw taala tells us similarly, in the same verse in
Surah, tilbyr, that Wehrli could Dino claim that this is the true religion, and in the sacred
months, further, totally Morphe in full circle. So therefore, Do not oppress and wrong yourselves
during these months. Now, this obviously doesn't mean that during the other months, it is allowed
for you to wrong yourself. But what is meant here in this beautiful verse, is that Allah subhanaw
		
00:02:41 --> 00:03:28
			taala tells us to be very careful to be very watchful, that in these particular sacred months, that
sins are not increased in number, but the sins are increased in their magnitude, meaning that if a
person is to commit sins during this time, it is seen as an even bigger sin. So Allah subhanaw taala
warns us not to commit these sins not to oppress in these particular times. If a person is fasting
during the month of Ramadan, and is engaged in foul speech, it is seen as a greater wrong, that this
special time Allah subhanaw taala decreed for us you should be more wary of yourself. So within
these four months, as we mentioned with all hedger is the most sacred why it is the most sacred. It
		
00:03:28 --> 00:04:13
			is the Allah subhanaw taala decreed that the pilgrimage the Hajj, is to be performed at this
particular time. It is the opportunity for us as Muslims to remind ourselves of the footsteps of
Ibrahim Ali salat wa salam, Abu MBs, the father of the prophets, and the pilgrimage to the Hajj
itself, was even known to the people of Abuja Helia. Before Islam the pre Islamic times, they knew
that this was a very special time. However, their understanding of how to perform the pilgrimage was
lost and was distorted. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam came with the true teachings of
Ibrahim ASA to salaam to remind us what we should be doing during these very very special times. So
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:57
			as these days and these months they come up upon us, we remind ourselves that the very first 10 days
of doing hedger are the very best 10 days of the entire year. All of us think about the blessings of
Ramadan and the last 10 nights of Ramadan and Lila Takada, very few of us prepare sufficiently
concerning the blessings of the first 10 days of the hedger. These are the most beloved days to
Allah subhanaw taala no good action is done during this time, that is more beloved to Allah subhanaw
taala than this time, so brothers and sisters, let us prepare ourselves for this time inshallah to
Allah and turn to Allah subhanaw taala seeking His reward, his forgiveness, trusting Allah subhanaw
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			taala and having hope in Him and all
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:13
			asking Allah subhanaw taala to accept all of our deeds may Allah subhanaw taala give us Tofik
success during this time Allahumma Nene botica lofi Virgie reiwa Not sure you wash chef
