			I said I want to come to LA he will Baraka will begin by praising Allah subhana wa tada for he is
Worthy of all praise and we ask Allah azza wa jal to censor that and Salaam, upon the one whom he
sent as a mercy to all of mankind. So at Hamdulillah, we're continuing on our journey of the
descriptions of gender. And in our last lessons I had covered a number of aspects of them is the
names of gender, we went over around 1520 names of gender. And we talked about some of the benefits
from the various names. We also mentioned, the fact that gender exists right now, and that there is
wisdom in this and that the the desire to come close, the desire to enter agenda becomes increased
		

			when we know that it is existing right now, it's not something that has not has yet to be created.
It has been created in the past, and it co exists with us right now. And also mentioned the
controversy regarding whether our father Adam alayhis, salaam was in that very Jenna, or did Eliza
origin create a garden and it is called gender because gender means garden. And then he was in that
initial it looks like the strongest opinion is that it was the very Jenna that we are desiring. And
this is a optimism for us that that very gender, that Allah subhanho wa Taala placed our Father in
there is hope that insha Allah, Allah will be going to be returning to our place of origin, and also
		

			mentioned a number of other opinions on this on this issue. Now we now come to the next, going in
chronological order. The next topic that we'll discuss in today's shot loudhailer, we will discuss
the topic of entering gender and the concept of when and how that's going to happen, and what we
know about the descriptions of the very doors of gender. And the fact that gender has doors is
mentioned very explicitly in the Koran, and are the most beautiful passages that a lot zoa jen
mentioned is the last page of surah Zoomer and I ask all of you to read this Surah Surah Zoomer that
mentions the, the the notion was co Kala Dena cafaro, Illa, Johanna mazuma, that those who rejected
		

			Allah subhana wa Tada, they will be gathered together and they were going to be forced to go to
jahannam and Allah says, had they there, Joe ha foot he had ababwa. When they get to the doors of
jahannam, the doors are going to be opened up. So notice here that the verse says, either Joe ha 40
hat when they get to it, the doors are opened. Now the very next passage Allah subhanho wa Taala
says, was CFO levena, taco raba, Hamid, Al Jen, Nettie Zuma and the people who had taqwa of Allah,
they too will be assured but they will be ushered to Jenna in groups of people had either Joe who
have worked foot he had a boo boo ha, when they come to it, and then the doors are opened up. And
		

			there is a very key difference here that every commentator, you know, glosses or every commentator
has a brief gloss on every commentator discusses and that is that when Allah mentions jahannam there
is no wow a lot. So it just says that when they come to the doors, the doors are opened for ababwa
then on when Allah mentions Jenna, there is when they come to the doors and then the doors are
opened wofe with the head there's a wow over here. And the gatekeepers of Jenna will say Salaam when
I they come peace be unto you libitum you have now flourished and this is now success. So enter into
it to live and dwell there in forever. Now what is the difference between not having the wow and
		

			having the Wow. And it's so eloquent dear brothers and sisters, it's literally one letter, one
letter. And from this one letter, you will find many dozens of paragraphs mentioned in the classical
and the ancient books of the seer and even modern commentators they mentioned so many of the
benefits that come from just this one extra edition of the wow
		

			And of what has been mentioned, is that there is one understanding that the wow here is an
indication that when they come to the doors of Jenna, the doors will be flung open as a respect to
them. So the wall here is for to cream, it's for a Chrome is for giving them a sense of honor that
there's going to be delegations, there's going to be a fanfare, there's going to be a very pompous
ceremony for them to be opening up the doors of gender. And that is indicated by the Wow. Whereas
when the jahannam is being talked about, then it's like the doors are slamming open when they come,
the doors are not being open to honor them, but rather to dishonor them. And so there's a terror
		

			associated, whereas with the agenda, there is a festival associated with the opening of the doors,
there's that one letter difference here, some have interpreted in a slightly different manner, of
course, all have interpreted it to mean that the people of gender are honored. But how does that
well indicate honor, that's where there's a slight spectrum of opinion. And another group of
scholars have said that the fact that it is in the past past passive tense, with the Wow, what 40
had a wobble, ha, it means that when they come to Jana, they will already find the doors having been
open for them in preparation for them. Whereas when they get to jahannam, right, so there is a
		

			terror that they see the doors, you know, chained and shut. And as soon as they get there it is
flung open, that will increase their terror, but when they see the doors of Jenna, so according to
this second interpretation, that the doors have already been opened in anticipation of them, and to
welcome them. So whichever interpretation is you take the point is that that, wow, that one letter
indicates that that the doors of Jenna are being opened or have been opened to honor the people of
Ghana, whereas the people of jahannam, the doors are going to be slammed open in order to terrify
them. And so there's just this one simple difference of that, wow, indicating an honor that is being
		

			given to the people of gender, and the doors of genda will be opened up obviously, after the
intercession of our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam I had mentioned this briefly, when we're
talking about the topic of the day of judgment, go back a few episodes, sorry, a few, not just
episodes, but a few series, if you do. Remember, this is a part of a much longer series. If you're
only watching this one, by the way, I have to keep on plugging in that no, this isn't. This is
actually a very long, multi part series, we did the size of the judgment. And then we did the
concept of borders off. And then we did the actual day of judgment, and what's going to happen on
		

			the Day of Judgment. And then we finished up the description of Johanna. And now this is the final
part of this five part series, which is the descriptions of gender so very, very long time ago, when
we're talking about the descriptions of the of the Day of Judgment itself. I mentioned in a number
of lectures, the concept of intercession shefa. And I mentioned there are different types of
intercession. And I don't have we're not going to go over all of that again, but go back to that
one. I'll just have to reiterate one section, which is that one of the types of chef out there are
many, one of the types of chef out will be the chef of our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to
		

			open up the doors of gender and to knock on the doors of gender and to ask permission for the doors
of Jenna to be opened up. In one Hadith. He sets a lot while he was setting them. Well, I know well,
man, young woman Manya claro Baba agenda, I will be the first who will knock on the doors of Jenna.
And therefore, Jenna, it will be opened up when our Prophet sallallahu Sallam he will be the first
of mankind anyway, he is going to be ahead of everybody anyway, and he shall be the very first to
get to the doors of gender, and he will be the first to knock on the doors of gender. And as soon as
Malik reported that our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, RT Baba agenda to multi Amity. I
		

			shall come to the door of gender on the Day of Judgment for a Steph dehu and I'm going to say open
up the door for your chordal housing men and the gatekeeper is going to say Who are you who is there
for our call Mohammed Salah la vida, he will sell them and so he shall say Mohammed and we are in
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And so the housing agenda will say Beco mille to laughter Julio Haddad
publica You are the one I have been commanded. I cannot and shall not open the door to anyone before
you. And so this hadith tells us and it isn't a Muslim. This Hadith tells us that the doors of Jenna
shall not open until our Prophet salallahu it he was selling intercede on behalf of all the mankind
		

			This is another intercession by the way. And again, a lot of our scholars even sometimes our
scholars, they mix up all of these intersections into one and if you look at the various headings
and I went over them in the previous you know when I told you about there are actually multiple
categories of intersections and a Hadeeth are just put all together but in reality, there is
		

			intercession for all of mankind to begin the day of judgment, and then there is the intercession of
our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam for specific people of his own. And then there is
intercession for his entire oma and this is called a shadow roadmap or the Grand shefa. Anybody who
says the Kadima, our prophets are some shall intercede for him. And then there's also an
intercession that will be done specifically for the people of gender.
		

			Excuse me when they get to the doors of gender, and therefore this is this intersection right now,
the very first person to get to the doors of gender, and to ask Allah subhanaw taala for permission
and to be granted that permission and then to knock on the door, and then the door to be opened all
of this multi step process, it will be for our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And in one
version of the Hadith, the doorkeeper says that I have never opened this door to anyone before you
and nor shall I ever stand up to open except for you. So the doorkeeper is saying the angel that is
in charge of the gates of Jenna, he is saying you are the name that name Yeah, Mohammed sallallahu.
		

			I sent him it is your name and of course nobody lies that that's someone that when the angel is
asking who is there, nobody can lie at that stage. There is no lying anymore is gone. So there must
be honesty and truth. And so when the angel hears that name, which shall unlock the doors of gender,
it is the name of our prophets a lot wider he was setting them and beaker O'Meara to your name is
what I have been commanded to open up the doors of Jenna, after hearing your name, so be Antonio
rasulillah he is indeed our shaffir and Moshe He is the one who will intercede. We ask Allah azza wa
jal to be amongst those whom are we he intereses for Scylla la vida he was Selim we were also told
		

			in another heavy that our Prophet system has the keys to gender Now, does this mean that there's
something of physical key Some have said this but the other interpretation makes more sense that
when our profit system is saying the heartbeat is in Timothy, that one methodical jannetty yo may
even be Eddie that the mfah to * Jenna is in my hands. What is meaning here is that I shall be
allowed to open up the doors because in Arabic is allowed to even in English we say you know though
I have the keys you know to something doesn't literally sometimes mean a key sometimes it means a
literal key. And sometimes you will say I have the keys to such and such it means I have access to
		

			it. So it seems that Allah knows best that what is meant by the Hadith and certain activity when the
Prophet sallallahu wasallam said that I have the the keys to Jenna shall be in my hand on that day.
That's what the phrase says that methodical, genetti ba de Yama even on that day, there were 40 or
the opening of the doors of gender. What this means is that our prophets, Allah, Allahu Allah, he
was setting them shall be allowed to open up the doors with his name, not that there's a key around
his neck or something, that there's not a physical key because there is no actual lock that needs to
be done. But the angel will open up the door. And so our Prophet system is saying, I am the one that
		

			has the unlocking meaning Allah has blessed me with that privilege. Allah has given me that honor
that when I say my name, then that name should open up the doors to gender and by the way, this
issue of a symbolic key it is something that is mentioned in other Hadith as well for example, that
the Hadith in Sahih Muslim and others that are prophets, Allah lahardee, who was Selim said miftah
who genetti that the key to Jenna is La ilaha illAllah. So the Kalima is the key to gender. Now, we
all understand what this means here right? And it is called the miftah agenda, the key to gender
right, we all understand La ilaha illAllah is not a physical key, it is a symbolic that you only the
		

			one who says the kalama shall enter the gender, gender, nobody who denies the Kalima shall enter
gender and so to say that the key to gender is not in the law, we understand that it is you know,
understand the understood meaning it is something that symbolically when you say law, a law in the
law and you mean it, then inshallah Daddy will enter agenda we also have the famous Hadith as well
that one of the doors of Jenna is the phrase law, how old are what are who was in Billa that I do
look, Allah bobbin avoidable agenda the Hadith is in by why they've been given that the Prophet
sallallahu wasallam said that oh my god, do you want me to tell you one of the doors of Jenna Wilde
		

			said yes. And the Prophet sallallahu wasallam said, la Hola, quwata illa Billah is one of the doors
of gender. So again, this symbolism of key and door, it does not mean that the door is literally the
holder who syllabi law, it means that when you say this phrase over and over again and you're
consistent in your doors, that in shallow data, this phrase will open up the doors to gender. So the
point here is that our profit system is saying I have the miftah agenda and that is his knocking and
that is his name. So love it he was selling Now, obviously, when will this occur and go back to my
lecture series about the dishes.
		

			Scripture the Day of Judgment, this will occur after the believers cross over the entourage. Do you
remember the Contra, I gave a whole lecture about contoura, that when the believers pass over that
bridge, that, you know, finishes off with jahannam is underneath, and then they pass over the syrup
and they get to the entourage. And the hunter will be the final place where everybody who is
destined to enter Jannah, they have to resolve their internal disputes amongst themselves right, so
that nobody who has any disease of the heart any, you know, pain, any suffering from another person
shall be allowed to enter until that suffering is resolved, which means that good deeds will be
		

			transferred. But these are all righteous people, they're going to get into genda after, as we said
that once you get to the stage, there's no going back. But still, there's some fine tuning some
shaving off of good deeds panela to the very end, and that's why I keep on reminding our brothers
and sisters that be very, very careful. A lot is afforda Rahim but mankind will not forgive, Allah
shall forgive if you turn to him. But if you hurt somebody with your tongue, you steal somebody's
money, you dishonor somebody, well, then that has to be resolved completely, and who's going to give
up on that day they want everybody else's good deeds, so be careful of that. But when will this
		

			happen? After the contract, that the the the believers will go forward, the prophet system shall
lead them and then he shall knock on the doors of gender, and of the blessings that we know of as
well is that our own man shall be the very first oma to enter gender, we shall be ahead of the pack,
out of all of the rumors There are over 100,000, almost 100,000 more than 100,000 prophets have been
sent. And yet we shall be ahead of the pack, not because of me and you, but once again because of
our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, because of the honor that Allah shall give to him that went
a lot as sewage and honors him than those that are with him are also under you know, when you went
		

			to you know, the king wants to show you know, one of the the disciples or one of the the visitors
and honor that the family is also honored because that's the whole point of it, that you're going to
honor the person and the person whom he loves and whom is associated with, and so it is our
blessing. We thank Allah subhana wa tada that he chose us to be of the of the Prophet sallallahu it
he was seldom in honoring him, because we are His followers. We too shall get an upgrade approve
early but only if we are real true followers. And what is that upgrade and privilege? How do you
design a Muslim? Our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, No, he wrote a word Luna Yama, Yama,
		

			we are the last and the first on the Day of Judgment, meaning we are the last of the omus all the
humans have come before us, but we shall be the first on the Day of Judgment. And then he said we're
not no Oh, wait a minute hold agenda we shall be the first who is going to enter Jenna Bay, the
unknown Auto keytab Republic, despite the fact that they have been given the book before us, and we
have come after them. But they differed and a lot xojo guided us to the truth. So we are the last
and yet we are the first on the Day of Judgment now. He wrote a willona Yama Yama and we shall be
the first to enter agenda. So the owner of the Prophet salallahu it he was setting them is the first
		

			oma to enter Jannah no oma shall enter agenda until the owner of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam has entered and his own man shall not enter until he has entered and so he shall knock on the
door Salah law, why do you sell them the doors will be opened in his name. And then he shall be the
very first person the first human being to enter Jenna is going to be our prophet SAW the law while
he was setting them and the first oma will be his oma. So who do you think the next person is going
to be? Obviously, it is a bucket of the Allahu taala and who and this is logical and common sense
that it is self evident. Even if there was no Heidi we will be able to surmise and posit this, but
		

			there is an explicit Hadith in this regard reported in the sunon of Buddha would that the Prophet
salallahu it he was seldom said and this is a beautiful Hadith. I love this idea that attorney Judy,
for the VAD that gibreel came to me he held on to my hand for our Omni Baba agenda. He took me to
the door of Jenna, that door that my oma is going to enter from so Abu Bakar said O Messenger of
Allah, that How I wish I were with you when God took you to show you that door. And so the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam responded in nikka abubaker a woman yet Hello, Jen. Let me know. Mati.
Oh, aboubaker Isn't it enough that you shall be the first person to enter gender from my own
		

			subpanel Look, this headset is so beautiful, by the way, and I really love it. Why? So first and
foremost, jabril came on a special mission. A lot of
		

			scented you buddy down not with why not with commandments of Highland how long not with legislation
not with a news of some future event No, a loss because Julian does not go by himself woman at 10,
zero 11am Arabic right? This is very explicit in the Quran gibreel cannot just decide to go and come
as he pleases. Allah has to command you bleed for every movement that God does. And so a lot decided
to gift the Prophet sallallahu I sent him a vision, what was that vision, God came to me to do what
to show him the door of gender that my oma shall enter from and how they do that he held on to my
hand Subhanallah with a sign of compassion and love, you know, you hold on to somebody's hand. And
		

			then you show him a blessing, right? Like again and again, I'm only giving these examples so that we
understand because we are so we are so you know, impoverished intellectually that examples help. And
of course to allow belongs the infinitely perfect example. But imagine a noble king who controls the
entire Dominion of a lander country, he is pleased with a minister or a person or nobleman, and he
holds on to this person's hand and he takes him and he's close look at this palace is yours. Look,
this is yours. Imagine how that person is going to feel the happiness that will will come. And so to
Allah belongs the most perfect example, our Prophet Sall Allahu Allah he was selling them was held
		

			by the hand of Allah angelic messenger, allows human messenger and allows angelic messenger, the two
are the best of the best, the best Angel held on to the hand of the best human and Allah sent the
best angel to take the hand of the best human and to show him as a gift as a blessing to show him
this is real, this is true, and there is a special door demarcated for the oma of the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam there are many doors of agendas we're gonna come to each other in a few
minutes. And one of them is earmarked. One of them is special for our oma, it shall be the first
door to be open, and it shall be the main door and it should be the door of the oma of the Prophet
		

			sallallahu it he was setting them and why would Allah azza wa jal do this to honor our prophets
Allah love it send them to excite him and then through him to excite us as well. Literally he is
being taken to the door and shown this is the door Can you imagine? I mean, dear Muslims, this is
the this is the whole point for us. Our hearts should be fluttering our hearts should be racing. And
just like now we get to another benefit. We bucket a Cydia. He says Yato sutala How I wish I had
also been with you and again this is his closest companion and so he expresses a natural and normal
desire. You had a solo law. I wish I was there as well. I wish I could see the door of Jenna and
		

			obviously that is a good wish but what are the other one will not be taken by Jubilee up there
because that's obviously that's for the prophets to do. Still, Abubakar has the right to wish and so
to calm him down to give him the good tidings. What did our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam say?
He said yeah bucha isn't it good enough? Emma and Danny? Oh yeah, it's good. Yeah, what can I know
this is good for you, but be be content, that you shall be the first person of my own to antigen
after me. So here we have the blessing of Oba. So they are the Allahu taala and that he shall be the
one who will enter the gender after the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And we are also told
		

			now against the people will be entering after Obamacare. There'll be lots and lots of people
entering and we're going to come back to this point. But again, just to to emphasize a beautiful
point here that our prophets Allah laquanda he was seldom said after the believers have been saved
from jahannam, they shall be stopped at the Fonterra between gender. And now we talked about this
entourage, and they shall have their kasasa they shall have their issue settled between them until
they have been cleansed. And until they have been gotten rid of all of these things, then they shall
be allowed to enter agenda. And then I swear by the one who controls my soul, every single one of
		

			you shall know your place in general, even better than you know how to get back home to your place
here in this dunya this hadith is I buy now this is a beautiful Hadith as well, because the question
that people might have is that Jenna is going to be massive there's going to be palaces are going to
be houses. How will I know when my house is? How will I know? I mean, we hope Allah makes us have
those batches, right? Obviously, let's not be self confident and arrogant. We always should be
humble, but still we are excited as well. We should hope inshallah for the best. So the question
arises, how will I know where my house is? And our Prophet sallallahu wasallam said, you know, when
		

			you come back to the city or town, right, you go into subconscious mode, like you know, I mean, we
speak from our own experiences, right? Like when you're going back, you know from the market from
your workplace, you just driving you know exactly where your houses is just subconscious in your
nature, right? You don't even have to think twice you just turn right and left. And if you have to
explain to somebody you can't even explain to us the third road and you don't even know how to
explain it's now completely ingrained in you. Our Profit System said I swear he's a kid.
		

			Giving custom, I swear, every one of you will find your house in general even easier than the way
you find your house in this world. When you're coming back to your house panela it's going to be
ingrained your inner conscience will tell you, you know, because it is your final and permanent
place. It's ingrained in you, Hamas, you know where it is. You don't need directions, you don't need
a map. As soon as you walk in, you're just automatically everything you will know exactly how to get
there. And you will find your place in Jenna, even easier than how you find your house in this
world. And therefore the first person to androgen, the first oma to enter gender. And then out of
		

			that oma, the first human will be abubaker, Sudhir. And then we have various categories of people.
Right, so now we're going to move on to the next issue. And that is that, who will enter Jenna, out
of the womb of the Prophet sallallahu. I said, and what is the priority, which will be the, the
seniority of, of entering, and we know a number of things. First and foremost, we have one group of
people who shall enter Jenna birajdar, his been while either without any accounting, and without any
punishment, so they are done already. It's finished, you know. So, again, to give an example of this
wall, that we understand that there's an examination taking place, right, there are people sitting
		

			the exam, and some people may be in some universities, you know, if you score a certain grade, and
you've done all the assignments, and you already have an A plus or whatnot, perhaps the teacher will
say, examination is exempt. You don't need to take it the final exam, you are exempt from it, there
shall be a small, small, small group of people whose good deeds are so well known and so well
attested to that there will be no pay sub no examination, and they will then be ahead of the line,
they're going to be ahead of the queue, because everybody else is in the exam, that ASAP is going
on. And there's a group that have already marched on, right. And these are profits, as I mentioned,
		

			and again, I'm a little bit of overlap, by the way today, going back to our previous lectures, but
again, it's necessary to talk about both of them at each of their separate places. And these are the
70,000 the famous editor of ricochet one reason that our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said
that there shall be 70,000 people who shall androgen biliary hisab they're not going to be waiting
over there. And of course, Akasha famously said Yasuda Allah make dua that Allah makes me amongst
them, and he said, You are amongst them. And then the other Sahabi stood up and the process and
said, ricochet has preceded you, I can't open this door for everybody. Akasha has preceded you. We
		

			also learned in one Hadith that for every 1000, there'll be another 70 and another version of a
Hadeeth. For every person, there'll be another 70,000. And of course, the seven and 770 and 700, are
expressions in Arabic that are meant to indicate a quantity around that region. Like we have in
English a dozen times I visited you a dozen times, I called you a dozen times, or we'll say I called
you 100 times you don't we don't mean exactly. But around that, you know, so 70,000 means it's a
quantity that we understand roughly how much that is. And our Profit System said for everyone. In
one version, he said for everyone, there'll be another 70. And that's still relatively small. It's
		

			just like a few million out of billions and billions and billions of people from the time of the
Profit System until the day of judgment, how many billions of people are Muslims are going to be we
do not know. And from them, you know, a few small quantity, we ask Allah to be amongst them, even if
they are small, we still Aspire right? That's the point. Even if the number is small, why can't you
and I desire and hope? Why can't we make dua to Allah that Allah make me amongst those who will
enter generator his habit, what I that we should always make do to be of those small group of
people, even if we know they're small, but why can't we ask Allah? Why can't we desire and put our
		

			trust that Allah xojo might indeed bless us in that regard. So there shall be a small amount. We
think 70,000 is a lot. But right now we have 1.7 billion Muslims right now, just in one generation.
Imagine all before imagine all that are going to come until the day of judgment, how many there
going to be so in reality, it might seem like a large, but when you look at the numbers, it actually
becomes relatively small. So the next batch of we should say one of the first batches will be of
those people who yet hold the whole lunar agenda to be ready, he said that they're going to enter
agenda without having to go through the hisab because the hisab is taking place and the doors have
		

			opened up right. So the hisab is still there, and the people are already coming in because that's
the whole point of entering gender without hisab and another group will also enter gender before
others and that group is going to be the full color or or the poor. And in one version, the full
color of the more hygiene and this Hadith, the famous Hadith in Timothy, it has mentioned a lot of
times, and it is a hadith that is very profound that our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said
the folk are all the poor people of my own more of the Muslims. Show me
		

			Jenna before the rich people before the other near by half a day, and half a day, he commented. So
the law Why do you sell him is 500 years, half a day is 500 years and the version of sign Muslim,
the heavy says the full color of the more hygiene shall enter gender before the rich by 14, honey
and honey is a unit in time, which is a long period of time. So the point being that we are told
that for a many, many, many lifetimes, 500 years and the emergence of Allah This is like 10
lifetimes almost of actual living, right? And Subhanallah This is something that really, we should
think long and hard about. Now. Here's the point, dear brothers and sisters, we don't want to be
		

			poor, none of us wants to be poor. And we thank the law that we are living many of us are living
comfortable lives, we thank a lot that we have a roof over our head, we think a lot that we have
food to eat, or like we don't want to be poor, we ask Allah for the good of this world and the good
of the next. But let's also be honest here, those who are struggling financially, those who are in
turmoil, those who are, you know, going to sleep on an empty stomach, they cannot feed their
families and whatnot, and they still live, dignified a man filled lives. Surely, they deserve
something. And that is why they shall enter Jenna centuries, while the rich are still hisab taking
		

			place, right? While the rich have to account for every single penny, there should be some reward,
there should be some perks and benefit. And so for many centuries, tapana last centuries. And so ask
yourself that. I mean, of course we want the easy, good life, but this good life we have it's only a
few decades, so only a few decades. How long can we live and reality? I mean, don't look at 7080
years in reality, how long are you actually an adult and you're enjoying the richest 4050 years at
max right? So 500 years of Baraka of that basically 10 lifetimes are being given to the full cut off
that they shall be enjoying basking in the pleasures of gender swimming in the streams of gender,
		

			eating and drinking and living in their palaces for centuries, while the rich have to account still
for every single penny, and all that they have earned, and all that they have spent on. And so even
though we don't want to live poor lives, if a lot of Georgian has tested somebody with that, they
should take much consolation, much consolation that Allah will give them to a way that they will be
more than happy. And they shall have the blessings and the perks. Now, by the way, ignore your
comments on this, that there are two separate blessings, do not confuse them. There's the blessings
of sequence of entering. And then there's the blessings of the level of agenda, the two are
		

			separate. This does not mean that everybody who enters earlier will be higher than everybody who
enters later, the two are separate. And each of them is a blessing in and of itself. So some people
who enter from the first batches shall have the very highest places, and some will enter from the
first batches, she'll have some of the lower places, and some who enter after them shall have the
highest places higher than those who entered some of them who entered before, and some shall be in
the lower places. So the two are independent blessings. So the point being, it is possible that a
person who is struggling financially, we'll enter gender before but his other good deeds are
		

			mediocre. And so they will be where they deserve. And a person who was extremely wealthy will have
longer time to account for but because he was generous, and because he did this and that and because
and because that eventually that when they do enter, they shall enter and they will go to a much,
much higher place because of the piety through their wealth. So do not confuse the two, there is the
sequence of entering and then there is the level of occupation. Each of those are separate
blessings. And they do not necessarily they're not correlated. And there's an explanation of this
from being a pastor of the Taliban, which is mentioned some of the books of Tafseer. And if not, you
		

			mentioned this and by the way, as I said, as I have said many times one of the most comprehensive
books written which I'm actually benefiting a lot from during these series is even a claim has a
nice volume had the AWS flag which is basically description of gender. And in that book, he mentions
this narration that we've been about for the long run that had been above said that there's going to
be two Muslims friends basically, that they are together on their way to gender but one of them was
rich and one of them was poor. And so the poor person will be allowed to enter and he shall stay
there for as long as Allah wills waiting for the rich one meaning the rich one hasn't come until
		

			finally when the rich one enters Jenna the poor person will say that Where have you been? I waited
for you until I thought that you didn't get in right like he's lifetimes have gone and the rich
person has not been inside so the poor person got worried what's going on until finally when they
meet up the rich person will say that that you know basic What can I tell you that I was called to
account for everything.
		

			And I was basically I'm trying paraphrasing, I was squeezed and rinsed, you know, so much so that
even if a powerful camel were to do so it would basically collapse but, but I had to answer for
everything that I had earned. And then after this, I was given leeway. And now I am inside Jenna. So
if an Ibis explained that the reason why there's the delay, which we understand from other texts as
well is that obviously the rich person has to account for all that they have earned, and for how
they spent it. Whereas the poor person, there is less accounting because out of the five questions
on the Day of Judgment, the two of them are related to wealth, how it was earned, and what it was
		

			spent on. We ask Allah for haffi and mafell. So the point being that the people who are poor shall
enter Jenna, before the people who are rich and this is a blessing to them for the difficulties that
they have undergone in this world. Another thing that we learn as well is that the doors of Jenna
are vast, they are wide. And we know from the Quran or from the Sunnah, in particular, that the
doors of gender are eight. Now the Koran mentions the doors of jahannam or 772. Above the doors of
jahannam or seven ahaadeeth mentioned a number of ahaadeeth mentioned that the doors of Jen are
eight Okay, so just to point to fact, we believe the doors of general eight but this is not found in
		

			the Quran, it is found in the Hadith, and the Hadith mentions that there are a two where does it
mention there are a number of ahaadeeth of them is the heightened cyber hottest Muslim sahalie been
inside narrative that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Phil genetti femora. Nia to
have werb, Jenna has eight doors, and there is one door that is called a rayyan. And none shall
enter it except those who were continuously fasting, or rayyan is the name of one of the H doors,
okay, now, the other names of the doors are not known to us. We know for some of them concepts, we
know for some of them that the one who does this shall enter that door. But we do not have names.
		

			The only in the authentic hadith, the only name that is mentioned is the name of rayyan and raian,
the concept of rayyan or the name, it means the one who shall be allowed to drink until they have
fulfilled their thirst quenching, right. So rayyan means that you will drink until you will never be
thirsty, they're never going to be thirst from there. So this is the door of our young. So the
Hadith is clear. There are eight doors of gender. Now, by the way, why are there eight doors of
gender, and seven to Johanna, even though there are less people in gender than gender. So there are
more people in jahannam and less in gender, and yet gender has more doors. Is that clear? The
		

			question right? jahannam has far more people than gender. And for every one person in gender, there
might be 900 1000 in jahannam, the majority of people will not want to thank a lot properly, and the
living, selfish lifestyles, rejecting a lot of blessings on them. And so we believe that though
nobody who we believe that anybody who does not pay attention to their spiritual needs anybody who
does not care about discovering why they're here thinking about life, anybody who's basically living
an animalistic lifestyle, that that person has really closed the doors on himself or herself to
Allah's mercy, and anybody who's sincere. We also believe that those who are genuinely sincere and
		

			they strive that inshallah tada that Allah xojo will bless them. So the point being that why are
there more doors to agenda and the response is that a lot is indicating that his rahama overcomes
his either, even though there are more people in jahannam, but Allah is more, and whoever wants it
shall get it. And so the opportunities to come to gender are more, even though the majority people
are ending up in gender, that's the fault of the people as for the paths and as for Allah rahima it
is favoring gender. So it's easier to get to gender theoretically in the sense that Allah will
forgive if you want to less forgiveness and Allah shall grant if you ask Allah subhana wa Taala but
		

			the majority of mankind will not do that. So this hadith also mentioned there are eight doors of
gender. Another Hadith assigned Muslim Urban rhodiola one said that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said that anybody who does that will do and he perfects the will do, he does it all the way
and he does it three times the way that it's supposed to be done right? Anybody who does the will do
and he does it perfectly. Then he testifies to Allah, Allah illallah wa who la sharika What should I
do and then Mohammed Abu who were a pseudo allama Jaya limited to well being whoever says this, the
Prophet sallallahu wasallam said footie Allah who will genitive samanya all eight doors once again
		

			eight as mentioned, all eight doors agenda shall be open for him and he can end
		

			Which whichever door that he wants to now, once again the point here, and this is a very interesting
idea that I just give a hope about the blessings of will do, why is we'll do such a big deal Why is
we'll do link to so much blessings because the only person who cares about doing will do is the one
who prays The only person otherwise you don't do. So the one who's constantly doing will do is the
one who is constantly praying. And the one who constantly prays is obviously also fully aware of the
other obligations and abstaining from the major sins. You see, the one who regularly prays proves
that that person has a level of God consciousness, a level of taqwa and that's what Allah says, In
		

			the salata, tenha and fascia, it will Moncure prayer, it acts as a barrier to indecency and to evil
deeds so and what is the key to the prayer is the will do so it's all linked together. It's not just
it's not that just doing the will do will cause you to walk into gender, it's that will do is an
indication of piety. And when you do will do it automatically implies that you're going to be
praying regularly and when you pray regularly, it implies that you're going to be doing all of the
other good deeds and therefore our Profit System directly linked will do to opening up the doors of
Jenna also in another Hadith inside behati beautiful Hadith as well, that our Prophet sallallahu
		

			alayhi wa sallam said man and Falco zoji Nieman shaman JVC DLA to Allah that whoever now this by the
way a lot of people miss miss interpret this hadith and they miss translate I've seen very
		

			Miss understandings of this translation of this hadith some have translated this that whoever has
two wives and they transit is oh Jane has two hours and that's a big mistake. That's not the meaning
here. That xo Jane here means
		

			either two categories of good deeds or good so sorry, forgot to translate the heading whoever gives
charity to so Jane to choose OGE right?
		

			Eliza Joe will allow the doors of gender to call out to Him. Oh, Abdullah, come here. This is good.
And then the head goes on. We're gonna come there. Now. What does it mean whoever gives charity to
choose OGE to xo Jane, it doesn't mean to two wives It doesn't mean those who have two arms are
automatically entering gender that's not what the head at all implies, right? What the Hadith
implies is one of two things number one some have interpreted Oh Jane here to mean because the so
the the duality is used for the plural in Arabic is very common. So So Jane can mean one did hum and
then another did one did not. And then another dinner, the point being whoever continues to give
		

			charity one after the other you can say successively that could be one translation. Another
translation, I was oh Jane here would be whoever does two deeds of charity in two separate fields.
So for example, sponsoring the orphan and then building the masjid, right. And the point once again,
the duality is to indicate plurality. So whatever does different projects with his wife, whoever,
you know, bills, the hospital, whoever feeds the hungry, and then sponsors the orphan and then gives
to the masjid. So that's what so Jane here means is that you are, I am both by the way, so there's
no contradiction between these two. Either you keep on giving, or you give to different causes.
		

			That's the point here. So whoever is generous in this manner, a lot xojo will ask the doors of genda
to call out to Him or Abdullah or servant of Allah, you have done good. And then the prophets have
said, Whoever was from the people of Salah shall be called from the door of Salah. So there is a
door of Salah right? There is a door that those who especially were punctual in their prayers
regularly prayed that they shall enter from that door, and whoever was from the people of jihad
shall go through the door of jihad, and whoever was from the people that charity shall go from the
people of charity, and whoever was from the door of fasting shall go from the door of rayyan. So
		

			these are four doors mentioned there are four more we do not know the rest of them, but the
assumption is that there will be doors for specific good deeds. So inshallah We hope that this is a
door for the people of knowledge and those that are teaching and preaching now there's there's over
the Koran, we hope inshallah, but it's not something explicit there. But we hope that these are
other doors, that there are various good deeds that will be done that are especially pleasing to
Allah subhana wa Tada. And so there's a special door earmarked for those that are doing those types
of deeds. So the prophets has mentioned this Hadeeth
		

			aboubaker. So the rhodiola one was sitting there, and I worker said that all messenger of Allah,
whichever door a person is called, is great. There's no harm whichever door you're in gentlemen
Alhamdulillah but is there any one that shall be called from all eight doors?
		

			Our prophets Allah law while he was selling
		

			said yes, indeed. And I'm optimistic Oh Bucher that you shall be one of them. So behind Allah
Subhana Allah What an amazing Hadith? Well, I this hadith once again, is just silence as you, I
mean, obviously, of the benefits of this Hadith, the most obvious benefit is that whichever good
deed that, that people have different good deeds, right, and not everybody can do everything, you
know, at the same level. And for some people, fasting is what they like to do. And that's their main
good deed. And for others, charity is their main good deed. And for others it is this and for others
it is that and so whichever is the good deed, that is the most easiest and precious to you do it as
		

			much as you can make it your main habit. Why? Because Jen shall be given based upon that good deed
that you are especially fond of that you do the most, there are eight different categories. And
perhaps you might not be the best in one of them. But as long as you pass in one, and so the
opportunities are there, as long as you really do good and one of them in shallow Tada, one of the
doors will call you. And so will Bukka said, whichever door calls you you're in, no problem and
hamdulillah. But there will be people that two doors will be calling their name, and you can choose
between them. And three doors and four doors and five doors and eight doors. All eight doors will be
		

			calling your name isn't all of them, whichever one you want. And it will work at a studio and this
is what I really find amazing panela you see, most of us when we hear this Heidi to like, I wonder
which door I can do I wonder which door is my easiest one. But see, that's me and you. As soon as a
bucket. Here's the last one look at where his mind goes. I mean, this is just another level as we
say in English, right? This is just a whole different level. Me and you were just like, if I just
get in crawling to the very last door, I'll be happy and you know, yes, we will be happy I agree.
But see, I will also do is I will look at so there. He is not asking what's the lowest? He's not
		

			asking where's the very last person? He is aiming to be number one. And that's why he is abubaker
are the low Thailand. He says you have a school of law? Can somebody be called by all eight
simultaneously? Look at where his mind goes, look at his his framework of thinking, right? And this
is what our religion teaches us you have to aim high aim for the very top, you go for the very
highest. And you know that that's very difficult to get. But if you don't even aim to get there, how
will you possibly get there? If you don't even look at that? How will you possibly get there? And so
I will look at a study wants to be that person. And the Prophet system told him Yes, indeed. And you
		

			know, if he hadn't asked this question, we would forever be wondering that will a person be called
from multiple doors or not. But he did ask that question. And we thank our workers for the for the
Aloha and for asking that question. Because he asked it we know the answer. And now the answer is
yes, indeed, there will be people call from multiple doors. And then our Profit System said I'm
optimistic or worker, you will be one who is called by all eight doors and that is the status and
the macom. of worker also the Theologian and so there will be people that
		

			will be called from these multiple doors. Now we have another mention of these eight doors and a
group that is going to be called by them. And this is a hadith in the Muslim Ummah with a very
interesting Heidi from respectively Abdullah, that he said the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
said that whoever loses three children before the age of puberty, and he is patient at this will
find all eight doors of Jenna open and he can enter whichever one he wishes. Now, once again, by the
way, the reason I'm pointing this heading that was for the H doors, I'm now proving to you through
all of these headings I mentioned to five headings at least, that mentioned the H doors of gender.
		

			And that's the whole point here. But we learned another thing from this Hadeeth as well. And that is
that the the one of the categories of those who will enter the agenda are those who have suffered
tragedies and calamities, and they were patient at those calamities, and it is possible that
patients alone will put you in front of the line and allow all of the eight doors because remember
these eight doors are sila and siyam and Jihad and whatnot but there are people they might not have
the Jihad than the solid and the SEO to that level. They don't have it but they have one thing and
that one thing will push them all the way to the front of the line and they will have all eight
		

			doors calling their name and what is that we can call it tragedy. We can call it pain and suffering
that is a very difficult type. And this is best illustrated in losing the child because you know as
the saying goes that there is no pain that is more difficult than that of losing a child there's no
pain that is more difficult than that's, you know those who have gone undergone it they have
undergone it those the rest of us we only can express our sympathies and magdoff for them we will
not we don't know that pain except that those that have gone through it. And by the way, so again,
point here I've said this in other lectures, I need to apply
		

			You're going to a bit of a tangent here, you know, the Hadeeth. Sam says two or three or whatnot, we
need to understand your Muslims, that mortality rates were unbelievably high back in the past. In
fact, there was a survey done by some historians, historians of science, well known research paper
done, I think, a decade ago, where they calculated very meticulously for medieval Europe, like 1500
euros, this is Europe 1500, they calculated that
		

			a quarter of children, a quarter of children died in the first year of life, and almost 50% of
children died before the age of puberty, okay. And we have to understand, like, we live in a very,
very privileged world where the death of a child is very rare. And we thank Allah for that. In fact,
in America, it's less than point 5% mortality rate point 5%, right. Whereas it used to be 25%. And
basically 25% of children would die in the first year, and 50% of children for whatever reason, did
not live to the age of puberty, this is in Europe, by the way, in seventh century, Arabia would have
been even more than this. And of course, that's because of many reasons. I mean, plagues and disease
		

			and pestilence and, you know, wars whatnot, we have, we have one of the one of the hallmarks of
modernity is that we have Allah has blessed us to raise the bar of medicine, even in developing
countries, generally speaking, mortality rates are exponentially lower than they used to be right,
that they are extremely miniscule, compared to even what 100 years ago was. And so when our profit
system is saying two or three, we need to understand that pretty much everybody loves to travel back
to them. And that's why By the way, children,
		

			the average number of children again, this, this research researcher calculated for Europe was
around six to eight children, right, that was 1500, by the way, six to eight children. And still,
the growth rate was very, very small, because the mortality rate was so Hi. So people had a lot more
children. And it was understood that children would die, a very common thing to die. And so to lose
123 children, that's why I had these mentioned, whoever loses to whoever mentioned loses three,
because, you know, you want to raise the bar a little bit for the people there. Otherwise, everybody
pretty much is losing one child that's like this, this is to give. So we need the reason I'm saying
		

			this, why am I being this little bit of a morbid, why? Because in our times, to lose one child, to
be honest, it is true to say it is more traumatic, potentially, even though we shouldn't compare
grievances. But society wise, it is more traumatic than somebody losing two, or maybe even three
children 1000 years ago in those societies, the rarity of it is more in our times, then to lose two
or three children, statistically speaking, fewer couples lose one child and our times, then would
lose three children back then. And the reason I say this is that the the whole purpose of going into
this tangent is merely to reassure those couples who might have lost a child Allah has tested them
		

			that don't be disheartened when you read numbers like when two children die when three children die,
because insha Allah, Allah, Allah is Rahim, Allah is recommend a lot as much as ever Merciful. These
numbers were meant for a time and place where they made sense in Shaolin. Our times we can
extrapolate from it that any couple that loses a child in their patient, inshallah, tada, all eight
doors of Jenna will be calling them also, we can inshallah as well extrapolate the concept and that
is that the child has mentioned to you to literature tragedy, okay. Sometimes there are tragedies
that are different than losing a child right tragedies of you know, maybe a war that is extremely
		

			traumatic, something happens. So, in sha Allah, the point is that look, always be optimistic, always
read in positives, insha Allah, anybody who has suffered a severe tragedy that strikes to the core,
and this patient at that, right, that's the point here, that, that in UFOs, sobre, una Xuan behind
it is that you want to be solid. So we read from all of these genres of Hadith that insha Allah,
Allah, anybody who is extremely patient, that person will ensure a lota Allah be of those upon whom
all eight doors of Jenna or inviting and so inshallah with this we come to the conclusion of today's
we're going to continue from where we left off, there's still some more things to discuss about the
		

			doors of gender. But today we talked about the fact that the people who enter agenda will be
entering in different batches, different timeframes, right, and that certain people will be
privileged over others, and of those that are privileged will be the poor people. And of course, our
own is privileged over all other omens and then we talked about the doors of gender and their
quantity and the fact that each one is associated with a good deed and that multiple people can be
called by most
		

			To build doors, we still have to talk about the sizes of those doors and other aspects how wide they
are. That will be a shallow topic continuation in our next lecture. Until then Chuck below here on
