			Wash,
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:20
			wash worse
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:40
			in
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:42
			yada yada,
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:45
			yada
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:57
			was
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:07
			a
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:19
			few years back I remember, one brother came to me he was in his 50s. And he asked me a question
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:24
			similar to this time, he says,
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:28
			Jeff, could you please help me understand I want to go to Hawaii.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:36
			I would like to go to lunch. Can you help me? Explain to me how does it feel to be
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:52
			talking about it? I watch all these documentaries. But how does it feel to be why it's so special,
everybody goes so hard. They just had this wonderful experience. I said once Panama
		
00:01:53 --> 00:02:00
			This is one of those experiences that you can never, you can never Express and you can never explain
why one
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:12
			word comes to hand. You can never explain that by what I can tell you as much as you want. But
nothing like being there and living.
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			Now that exact same question just came.
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:21
			That means people is always on their mind.
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:24
			Regardless, regardless of
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:36
			how old they are, they always think exactly the same concept because they know when it comes to
Allah Subhana Allah promise and who goes to *.
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:39
			He goes to
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:50
			rule which means is considered righteous concern, good. faultless had a lot of promise than would
lead amnesty.
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:54
			their sins are forgiven, in the midst of
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:56
			Manhattan.
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:01
			felony episode one year, or
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:05
			whoever goes to hurt
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:12
			yourself is not engaged in any kind of, of Acts.
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:20
			Being sexual acts, or B words or organization with people whatsoever of
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:26
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says,
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:32
			this individual comes back home, just like the day when he was
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:34
			just
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:54
			completely innocent. Please, please, page, your records are clean and ready just to find the good
things that you will achieve when you do so you come fresh. And you just everything has been
canceled of the past citizen and fault if you
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:57
			lost power
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:00
			from a
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			young young woman
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:23
			had is during warmer months. For those who don't know the monster show was one of them. And then
they'll kind of just come in next. And then you have the attendees.
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:28
			That means that we have less than three months,
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:30
			you have less than three months.
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:42
			Practice even now less than two months to fulfill your obligation. And why am I bringing this issue
up today? Even though it's still too far or too many people had is still too far.
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:46
			It's still too far because they believe they're young
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:50
			and still have many years to come inshallah.
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:58
			For others, there's still too far because they're too busy. And the 100 nah man had once in your
lifetime
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:00
			My cat,
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:09
			but it's coming sometime in the future. It's too far for so many people because they've never made
had priority.
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:17
			When it comes to their life, they have so many things that engaging themselves then. And I know that
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:19
			when it's time for them to go,
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:24
			but what is that moment in time for you to learn?
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:38
			So many young men and young, middle aged people, when they talk to them about what they said, Well,
we would like to learn that when we come back, and shall we come back completely different.
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:45
			Meaning I want to enjoy my life now. And then when I come back,
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:50
			I will have that transformation, that I'm not going to do the bad things that
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:54
			they think that they're, they're still young,
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:57
			permissible for them to get whatever they do
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:03
			wrong. So that when it's time they go, they come back again, and
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:06
			they put them
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:10
			under
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:24
			the age of maturity for them. Meaning whether they're 2530 4050 or 60. People, they're pushing their
hands thinking that it's better to be late, so that when you do it, you come back again and
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:27
			prepare yourself for nothing.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:32
			So at least hamdulillah I have Muslim grace.
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:40
			Do you have any contact with allies to give you life until the next season?
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:47
			Has this guarantee that you are going to live until you
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:53
			many people I know that you know they died, they were unable to
		
00:06:54 --> 00:07:02
			for whatever reason, medical financially, and others they give less than less was what they'll be
less
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:25
			useful time and age and spirit. And they're still pushing the obligation, even though they know it's
permissible for them to delay. But it's still better for you to do now. Before next time. Why?
Because I tell you the truth about hunch had is addictive.
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:30
			It's addictive. last panel data says about
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:41
			one last time we made this half
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:44
			a cup Canada
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:46
			what
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:52
			it means is that the
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:55
			judge
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:07
			will just keep coming back year after year after he and some other interpretation of this word of
this individual. His heart
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:12
			is always attached to the house.
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:14
			That
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:18
			they are there every single year are supposed to be
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:23
			awesome. Hopefully their experience was amazing. And
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:31
			they would wish that they would not have that they won't do nothing. Why? Because they want to be
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:33
			when you have
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:38
			so many of them they still remember
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:44
			they just thought is a flashback in their minds goes back again to the rights of
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:50
			those who go to college. They know
		
00:08:55 --> 00:09:06
			they know how much they gain from that experience. Yes, we're human beings we tend to forget
whatever time they remember our experience of hunting. So Pamela, it is such
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:18
			an awesome so this experience when you go to the house of Allah subhanho wa Taala for those who
haven't been given this football for you, because I know you still have about two months to make
your plan.
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:29
			Yes, you plan to go ahead five years from now until you take the opportunity. Take advantage while
you can. So to
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:30
			go to
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:34
			enjoy my mama.
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:37
			Then make it better.
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:43
			experience this year was amazing. Make it magnificent. And go
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:47
			down the road.
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:51
			You want to do dance parties.
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:59
			Because once you do it one time, you will see how much you want to be attached to the house of Allah
subhana wa
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:06
			Magnificent experience that cannot be explained by words, for those who are young,
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:12
			or old, because the best experiences will lie, is that when you,
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:23
			when your body can handle the effort, you can make things during the time when you're young, much
more than what you do on your own. You can walk distances between
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:26
			between men and women.
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:42
			You could walk between them, and you will be happy, even as you go through the pain of the distance
and use them. And rejoice that you do this for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala. Why is that,
because you're doing
		
00:10:44 --> 00:10:47
			a lot less than what the Messenger of Allah
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:49
			did,
		
00:10:50 --> 00:10:56
			you will do that, and you will enjoy the experience. But I think I'm older as you become older, it
gets out of a model.
		
00:10:57 --> 00:11:06
			You cannot enjoy the experience. You cannot handle the pressure when you go there. So go on your
own, and you will still enjoy what you're doing in order.
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:09
			What are the experiences of
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:12
			those who would like to go to
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:24
			few words about the magnificent experience of hunting, what can you expect when you go? Number one,
the first thing we expect expect to do is actually see the glory of
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:36
			the greatness of a loss of power without a lot is seated in that house. When you see all these
people coming from all
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:41
			around me
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:44
			all these years, every time.
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:50
			But then you will have a lot less than a month
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:59
			in which those who came from other department they leave and the area becomes kind of empty.
Suddenly,
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:22
			you see all those people coming from all over. The judge comes in hundreds and 1000s. And the place
again in Medina, and Mecca becomes so full that you can't even see your directions. People come in
from all over the place. And you start losing even the sense of direction, the sense of place why
people speaking different languages
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:30
			represent different cultures, different colors, everywhere around you a magnificent sight of the
Dalai Lama.
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:38
			That's what he mentioned to us about this beauty of this diversity, then he's
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:40
			meant
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:54
			that we made you into tribes and peoples from different cultural backgrounds and languages for
later. So that you might get to know one another.
		
00:12:56 --> 00:13:03
			In the head, people they sit down, they don't get no common language, they start talking silently.
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:24
			But they enjoy the experience enjoy the food, they enjoy helping one another fulfilling obligations
that have lots of time with me and you about a lot. When you go to have one of the beautiful things
there is that you see no status among the people other than being service.
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:38
			Specifically, when you put on your farm, once you put on your farm and start making your power, make
a new site, and you go to all these places, once you put your thumb on.
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:46
			If you're a minister, or if you're a teacher, or funeral director, no one even
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:53
			even regardless how fancy how expensive it is, few hours later.
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:57
			And he will all local
		
00:13:58 --> 00:14:06
			people will not call you by your titles anymore. And even if you try when you try to zoom out of
that beautiful scenery.
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:09
			Who are you?
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:24
			Where are you? You're just like nothing in these ways of people who come from all over the world.
But the beautiful thing about is that they all come unified for one purpose
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:28
			to dedicate their service philosophy
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:30
			and that's what it gives in
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:31
			mind.
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:39
			We answer your call.
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:42
			We
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:46
			will answer your call.
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:49
			And the last time was Allah
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:51
			looks at this problem
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:53
			and he sees the handle
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:55
			and
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:58
			he knows the answer.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02
			On this beautiful scene to the angel.
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:10
			And a lot of them,
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:22
			they're coming in and asking for forgiveness. They're coming in admitting their faults and their
parents that they want to have mercy on our last panel without answers.
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:29
			Our last
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:32
			witness for me and you,
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:36
			you'll be my witnesses.
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:59
			There's so that when people put their hands down and the sun goes down, and they realize that they
have almost the most important, they're almost done. And that is an amazing feeling will lie, I
cannot describe this, you can transform, specifically the last hour of the show.
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:09
			People sometimes relax during the day. But in the last hour, those who really didn't care for those
who came there for the hundreds,
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:21
			this perhaps would be their most important and ironic hour of their lifetime. As they stand there,
waiting for the sun to go down, and they wish they won't go down.
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:24
			And they keep asking
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:28
			over and over again, over and over again.
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:34
			Allah gives them an energy that they themselves would be surprised to know that they
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:42
			you see yourself in a completely different way, a different perspective. You see something?
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:47
			If you really dedicate your time and dedicate your life on that day.
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:51
			What about the
		
00:16:52 --> 00:17:07
			one thing about that when you go there, and you look around, although unfortunately these days, the
new developments around the home affected the beauty, the traditional beauty of the site itself, you
couldn't see the mountain
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:12
			you cannot see the beautiful all sides
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:17
			to remind you of the origin and form of manga perhaps as look like
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:21
			an even as it was as far as
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:23
			you know.
		
00:17:25 --> 00:17:28
			It was abandoned place completely empty.
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:31
			He fulfilled
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:38
			literally know what he was fulfilling the demand.
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:45
			Then the last
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:49
			one,
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:51
			you Brooklyn
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:05
			call these people unless
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:08
			you do the call, and we'll deliver if
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:16
			you do the call and we deliver it to them. A lot will deliver and Indeed Allah subhanho wa Taala
says
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:19
			you have to carry journey.
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:21
			Yep, Tina.
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:33
			proclaim to the people that have they will come to you on foot. every town they will come from every
distance.
		
00:18:36 --> 00:18:37
			I've seen.
		
00:18:38 --> 00:18:43
			You've seen cars coming from far away. You ask them how long have you been on the road
		
00:18:44 --> 00:18:46
			on the road before the month of Ramadan
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:50
			will last you people they can they
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:59
			want to make sure that they are on time. And I've seen people come in from places
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:17
			where they decided to walk in fulfilling this idea that they want from distances away from Mecca
just alone and fulfill that obligation and also fulfill the promise that I was given the
problematics you proclaim and we will deliver
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:21
			about a lot when it comes to funding for how to do
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:24
			one of the beautiful reminders is that
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:36
			you see everybody unified in our communities. In one message sometimes you have difference of
opinion disagreements in one vote,
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:46
			even though the cause is one that causes one, to have a wonderful experience, that wonderful
services to bring the people together
		
00:19:47 --> 00:19:55
			and so on. But still in some communities you still have some issues when it comes to regardless of
the issues we have with each other when it comes to
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:58
			against the phone.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:05
			No one is going to stop aside from the opposite side, just to make a statement.
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:09
			regardless how much how you put your arm on,
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:13
			eventually, when it comes to
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:17
			people, it brings them all together, they make,
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:21
			they call the same call. And they need the same number of
		
00:20:22 --> 00:20:24
			answers on the cover. And also
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:40
			the best way of seeing that the first time to see this unity, and how all together get together in
one called one that is when you walk from our phone
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:47
			experience, because most people they they ride the buses
		
00:20:48 --> 00:20:51
			and take them straight in. But if you get the chance, or
		
00:20:53 --> 00:20:53
			just
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:59
			try to walk you have to have these streams of water
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:12
			heading towards you. And this stream starts coming together making small, small highways of streets,
the streets are feeding into main highways another become two major highways
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:19
			in the darkness of the night with the lights on the highway, and other people
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:29
			with different accents and melodies based on their backgrounds. But these are now millions of people
		
00:21:30 --> 00:21:39
			they want and then you have all these two main highways huge, I was like two rivers flowing and they
merged in one huge time.
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:49
			No pushing, no shopping, nothing just keep merging together in one pile. And they keep on
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:54
			this perhaps one of the most beautiful signs of diversity for this year that
		
00:21:55 --> 00:22:04
			I everytime I bought it online, I stopped, which was connected to heart. And I stopped looking at
this and subprime.
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:06
			Just look at that
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:13
			amazing sight. It's an amazing experience, you don't see yourself alone, you realize
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:18
			how big and how huge the lesson to be.
		
00:22:21 --> 00:22:27
			But unfortunately, not so many people realize that. And many are still not making this.
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:31
			This is a reminder for that.
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:37
			When it all started for you lots of panel data getting nothing hiding and you can't find it.
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:41
			And regardless how much we try to gather with you What else you got?
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:44
			What was
		
00:22:46 --> 00:22:47
			only going to be
		
00:22:53 --> 00:22:56
			essential. And that's exactly the essence of this.
		
00:22:57 --> 00:23:05
			When you stand before your own power law, you should carry nothing, but the essentials that they
need that will help you go through the journey.
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:06
			And that's what you get.
		
00:23:08 --> 00:23:15
			And even if you become 100 or less of less than dystonia, when you go back, you still not going to
carry with you.
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:25
			That means it's okay. It's okay to go and pursue the lesson in this world. It's okay. But to use it
for the physical doctor,
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:28
			to be your most powerful Donald
		
00:23:30 --> 00:23:33
			has an amazing spiritual experience,
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:40
			about just going five days to perform particular rituals and rites. And when you come back again,
sharing your
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:45
			experience.
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:55
			It's profound. It's deeper, it penetrates the heart and the soul. Those who go to Hajj and they
realize the experience of Hajj their way is
		
00:23:56 --> 00:24:07
			they come back completely transformed into completely different personalities. If you haven't
planned this year, and you have the time and you have the wealth and even time again
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:20
			Don't wait. Don't delay even if you plan to go two years from now three years from now. Just go
through them this year. And inshallah trust me you will not change
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:27
			because you see yourself and you don't want to go again and again and again. That's the promise of
Allah.
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:31
			Allah azza wa jal Let's do it one time.
		
00:24:32 --> 00:24:32
			Again
		
00:24:58 --> 00:24:59
			when people come to
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:00
			asked me about
		
00:25:03 --> 00:25:09
			the most common question they asked to. So I wanted this session, which
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:13
			was titled agency is as good
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:20
			as the one because they're looking for the preparation.
		
00:25:21 --> 00:25:25
			If you want that handler, the first one is actually the most vital.
		
00:25:27 --> 00:25:28
			Which one is that? I don't know.
		
00:25:29 --> 00:25:31
			But you need to get it in your heart.
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:35
			Regardless of whom you go,
		
00:25:36 --> 00:25:41
			then make sure that you carry with you the best design and the last panel.
		
00:25:45 --> 00:25:49
			That is provision, the sustenance that you will carry with you, when you go
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:53
			with whom should I go? Who is the best?
		
00:25:54 --> 00:26:03
			Yeah, there are different degrees of these companies and these agencies, but it doesn't matter. As
long as it's getting in your mind that this provision.
		
00:26:06 --> 00:26:16
			Of course, it might assist you in making it better for you. But whatever, whatever book you go with,
you make sure that you are on your spiritual provision
		
00:26:18 --> 00:26:27
			more than the material systems, that material sustenance is easy, easy to manage and can survive.
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:28
			But what
		
00:26:30 --> 00:26:31
			is consciousness?
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:33
			Because
		
00:26:34 --> 00:26:34
			this is
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:40
			how we'll test your patience to limits you have never seen before.
		
00:26:42 --> 00:26:50
			It pushes you way far beyond your limits. And that's the purpose of how much can you handle
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:57
			how much can you handle? So if you prepare yourself financially,
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:04
			you're gonna think about the other side of the world
		
00:27:08 --> 00:27:10
			trying to achieve when you go to
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:12
			make
		
00:27:16 --> 00:27:17
			a lot of money.
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:27
			A lot more.
		
00:27:29 --> 00:27:30
			A lot more.
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:47
			Many,
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:52
			many
