			Shala today we're going to do a short explanation of a beautiful hadith is a dua so long dua lengthy
DUA and it's a very comprehensive you will not be able to memorize it in this explanation because
it's very long but you can I'll tell you how to find it. And also the point is to understand the
phrases of this dua so that I shall have two other we can memorize them and use them. The hadith is
reported in the Sunnah of an SRT and the Mustafa Muhammad and others and it's a beautiful story as
well. And it goes that amount of vinyasa you know, the famous companion his father, he acid and
mother's familia were Shaheed and Amal was the one that the parish tried to torture him. And he
		
00:00:38 --> 00:01:09
			acquiesced. And he said things you shouldn't have said, he comes running to the Prophet so they sell
them he says Yarrow sort of life committed Cofer, the processes what happened he explains the story
that the orange killed my mother, my father, they're about to kill me. And I said something, you
know, just to get the torture off. So the Prophet says, How's your iman said, the man is strong in
the heart. He said, don't worry if they repeat the torture, you repeat what you have to say. And
then Allah revealed in the Quran that 11 ocarina whoever is forced is forgiven. If you're forced,
you're going to be killed and whatnot, you're forgiven to say whatever. This is a mod of vinyasa.
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:49
			And I might have been yesterday as well. He's the most famous Sahabi in regards to the fitna,
between the Sahaba our prophecies and and predicted that the Bahia are the group that is rebelling,
is going to kill a mob, and so he died in the battle of Safin. A Shaheed he was fighting on the side
of it though the Allah one against the other side of why we are the Allahu Allah forgives although
the Masha Allah, but he was on the side of it. And his death was a marker for many of the Sahaba
that the one that was closer to the truth was added to the Allah one because he was fighting in the
camp of it. And our Prophet system said that the Bosnia group the rebelling group is going to kill
		
00:01:49 --> 00:02:29
			Ahmad vinyasa and he died in that battle. So she has a few Hadith not that many Hadith. This was one
of the Hadith. So this hadith goes as follows that one day he led them in Sudan. One day he was
leading them in Salah he was the Imam of the Salah, and for ojos he prayed a short Salah and then he
left the gathering. Some people complained that you left a very short Salah you let a very short
sunnah we wanted a longer Salah behind you. And he said, even if I have led a short salah, I made a
dua in it that the prophets have some taught to me this why are we doing this hadith, I made a dua
in it that the prophets Allah Allah said, I've taught me that made up for the length I didn't need
		
00:02:29 --> 00:03:10
			to make it long. As long as I have this dua then even if it's short, it's good. Now this shows us
that Subhan Allah and the time of the Sahaba they wanted longer sought us right and our times we
have to make shorter Salah no problem times change, but at the time of the Sahaba they wanted Ahmad
to give a longer Salah Why did you make it you know so short right? And he responded back that
within the Salah there was a quality so what is important is not how long how short it is the
quality and Ammar or the Allahu and said within the Salah, I made a DUA, that dua made up for the
length. As long as I made this up, don't worry about it. This also shows us by the way, an important
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:52
			sunnah that we neglect, and that is the Sunnah of making dua in such that this is a form of Salah
he's leading them in Salah it's a form of Salah, and when he's in such the he makes this dua which
we're going to say right now. And he is saying because I made this dua then doesn't matter if my
salah is short, and this shows us an important neglected sunnah, that when we are in such the, we
should prolong the search that we do up after we say subhanallah belie Allah Subhana Allah subhanaw
taala after we make any of the other regular of God subordinate producer upon our marketing ROI, we
should then make dua from the heart dua about the deen and duniya dua about this world and the next
		
00:03:52 --> 00:04:37
			world and any do us are permitted at this time, any do us and our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said that increase your do as in your such that because you will be the closest to your Lord
and such. And because your chances of ISTE Java or higher for coming in on a new stage Java comm
your chances of drop or higher. So this is assuming that we should come back to now when he said
this. He was in the end of the month he left one person ran behind him. He says oh I'm out of
vinyasa. Teach me this dua and because of this one person we have this memorized Subhanallah the the
blessings of being eager for knowledge, right? The blessings that you want to learn something you
		
00:04:37 --> 00:05:00
			know when he's leaving, he says look, I made it to adore it's a good Salah Yes, I did it. He left
one person run he says yeah, Amara eliminate teach me what was this dua that you said. And so this
is the longer that he said I'm gonna go over it phrase by phrase. So he said what I said was that
Allahumma in Allahumma Barrington Michelob Oh,
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:49
			Well Allah I asked you by the fact that you know ilmenite work quadratic, I'll hug and I asked you
by the fact that you have power over your creation. Now, the DA is beginning by asking ALLAH SubhanA
wa Tada via his attributes via his power. Oh Allah be inimical him. Because you know in Mannheim,
where we put the latika al Hulk, and because you have power over the creation, before we begin what
we want, we begin by praising Allah. Before we say give me we say, Yeah, Kareem, before we say
Forgive me, we say algo far. So we open our doors with what is called TELUS Su and tawassul is of
many types and of the types of there was soon to was soon by Allah's names and attributes that was
		
00:05:49 --> 00:06:35
			sold by invoking Allah with what He is befitting to be invoked with, this is the opening of dua. So
I might have been the answer says that, oh, Allah, I asked you because you have elemental and
because you have ultimate control over the creation. What do I ask you? A Heaney? Madam, tell
Hayato, Hydra leaf whatever funny either Adam to refer to Hydra Li, this is the beginning. First
First thing that you ask, Oh Allah, grant me life. As long as you know life is in my best interest
and cause me to die. When you know that death is better for me. What a beautiful dua, the default of
most of us, Europe give me a long life. No, that's not what we ask. Because no matter how long we
		
00:06:35 --> 00:07:19
			live, eventually, and it's not the quantity of years. It's the quality of life. We want quality of
life. And sometimes some people live a life where the quality is so bad, so poor, that really it's
not worth it. And that's why our profit system would seek refuge and Allah from living a life until
he becomes senile, or will become rodella Another rumor. I don't want to live that long that I lose
my senses we don't want to live to that life that will become more tired will become you know,
somebody else has to take care. We don't want that. Right. And so our motto vinyasa begins this guy
he's learning from the prophets I send them and this to Isaiah, Allah. Take me Yeah, Allah gives me
		
00:07:19 --> 00:08:05
			life. As long as you know life is better for me and cause me to die when you know that death is
better for me. The next phrase was a Dukkha sciatica. Filet B when I dhania, I asked you, Oh Allah,
that you grant me, a fear of you, when people are looking at me. And when I'm all alone. In other
words, my heart has to be the same regardless of whether I'm in public or private, right? And in the
Quran, so many times Allah DNF sharara, humble hype, right? Those who fear their Lord in the unseen,
the real test of piety is not when people are looking at you. The real test of piety is when you're
all alone. Is your Hashem the same? Is your fear of Allah and worship the same. Let my actions be
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:46
			consistent. Phil I will Allah Ania when people are watching when I'm all alone, it should be exactly
the same. Again, what a profound dua, right? You want your class to be so high, that is irrelevant.
Whether you're in public or private secret or in front of the whole world, you will do the exact
same thing. So I asked you Allah has sciatica for the baby. Well, Allah Ania were Kadima tell
HealthDay robot well Hado and I asked you that are always speak the truth, whether I'm happy or
whether I'm angry. My tongue has to be Mr. theme. Now some have pointed out the first part of this
dua Hershey attack is about your taqwa and the second part, the collimator and help it's about your
		
00:08:46 --> 00:09:29
			laugh. And, and the summary of all of Islam is taqwa and Adam, right taqwa and how you treat other
people. And these two phrases combined that oh Allah grant me, Hashem of the heart, and I will Allah
make my tongue straight, in all circumstances. And the tongue, it is the key to unlock the tongue is
how you interact with other people. And our profit system is saying Yara, whatever my state,
whatever my internal, my tongue has to always be saying that which is appropriate that which is
correct. And this is basically the miftah are the key of o'clock. So Allah so the prophets are
making dua to Allah that grant me the o'clock and gradually the reality that no matter what happens,
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:59
			I'm always saying the best words, and even when I get angry, and I lose control of internally,
externally, I can control externally and that's the real subject, right? No matter how angry you
are, you're not gonna get into trouble. But when the anger affects your tongue, when the anger
affects your limbs, that's when you might cross the line. And so even if I'm angry, Oh Allah, let my
tongue always speak that which is best was a local Costa fille. fuckery well Alina, and I asked you,
Oh Allah, I'll toss moderation.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:20
			Whether I'm rich or whether I'm poor, this is a interesting phrase as a local caster fee. Phil
fuckery. Well, Hina I asked you moderation, in poverty and in richness. What does this mean? By the
way, the profit system would never ask to be wealthy.
		
00:10:21 --> 00:11:08
			He would never say, Oh Allah make even though it is not wrong, per se. It is not haram. We may ask
to be of the wealthy. But we should always add a caveat and make me have the generous, right. Never
say oh Allah give me money just like that. That's a fitna. And that's why I process them never just
said give me money. No, that's not really even if you want money, oh Allah grant me wealth and make
me have the salah Hey, no problem. You add that at the end as well. But our profit system is MACOM
is higher than mine in yours. It is not befitting that he asks Allah for lots of golden silver. What
did he ask Allah as a local cost? I want moderation in poverty and in richness. Now scholars have
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:52
			different what does this mean? The majority interpretation which Allah and there's nothing wrong
with having multiple interpretation is that Oh Allah, regardless of how much wealth or poverty I
have, I'm always being generous and taking care of my family moderation here. I don't want to be
extreme in either giving everything or withholding everything. So regardless of my own financial
circumstances, regardless of my own state, I should always be consistently generous and consistently
prioritizing family because that's what Islam teaches us, right? Islam does not teach us that we
become impoverished and leave your wife and children poor, we give everything to other people. No.
		
00:11:52 --> 00:12:32
			So this is the the majority interpretation of cost. There is another interpretation, nothing wrong
with this, and that is that if I am blessed with wealth, or tested with poverty, don't make it
extreme either way, give me moderation. So, there are a hadith that I seek refuge in You from the
fitna of Lena and the fitna of fucker. And this could be interpreted this way that Oh Allah, if you
give me wealth, don't make it a fitna. For me, don't make it so much. And if you're testing me with
poverty, don't make it a fitna for me that there's no food to eat, right? So you go through a little
bit of cycles, if the cycle is within a reasonable spectrum hamdulillah Don't test me with
		
00:12:32 --> 00:13:10
			unreasonable spectrums, right. And we all know that extreme wealth is one of the biggest tests of
mankind, look around, you will look around you how few people of that category are righteous.
Similarly, extreme poverty is a major fitna, because you cannot concentrate you cannot pray, you
cannot take care of your children. You cannot live a normal life. That too is a problem. We don't
want to go there. So another interpretation which is valid, that Oh Allah, if you test me with
wealth, Don't test me with that, which is going to be too much. And if you test me with poverty,
Don't test me with that there's going to be too much poverty. So I want moderation, even in wealth,
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:47
			make me moderate. And even if I have to be tested with poverty, not too much of a fitna, and both of
these interpretations aren't valid. So I asked you all cost fee. Phil fuckery will clean up was a
Luca Iman inferred was a Luca Kurata in the Latin Quarter, oh Allah I asked you blessings that never
stop, and the coolness of the eye that will never cease. So continue to bless me, bless me, bless me
continue to give me comfort that will never stop once again. We have multiple interpretations, the
primary interpretation, what is it that will give you continuous blessings forever and ever.
		
00:13:48 --> 00:14:32
			Jana, what it is that will give you continuous coolness of the eye without stopping Jana. So one
interpretation, which is again, there's nothing wrong, although these are valid, right? The first
interpretation these two phrases, I'm asking you for Jana, and he's describing Jana, Oh Allah, grant
me that place in which the blessings never cease. And that place in which the comfort of my eyes
will never stop that is Janna. But you can also interpret it completely valid, that Oh Allah,
continue to bless me forever and ever and ever in every type of blessing in this dunya and the next,
and it continued to give me comfort forever and ever and ever in this dunya and the next and that is
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:59
			also a valid interpretation. Don't we want blessings in this dunya? Don't we want comfort in this
dunya and this is also a valid interpretation. Once again, notice the comprehensiveness of the DUA
our Prophet system is not saying bless me with wealth, bless me with the house bless me with
children, he keeps it open leaves it to Allah continue to bless me how you know best how to bless
me, Oh Allah, and of the etiquettes of the DUA is to be Jahmir compre
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:43
			hence you don't specify when you can leave Allah to specify. Why would you want to restrict the
blessings of Allah? Oh Allah continue to bless me and the story. Oh Allah continue to make me happy.
What more do you want right? Allah knows best when we add an adjective for no reason we add a noun
for no reason. We are restricting for no reason. Oh Allah continue to bless me with with wealth.
Okay, how about your health? How about your family? How about the problems of this dunya why
restrict the unrestricted? Oh Allah, I asked you blessings that never stopped. What a beautiful dua
to Allah, I asked you for a comfort of the eye that never ceases always make my soul at peace
		
00:15:43 --> 00:16:32
			Subhanallah This is the etiquette of the Prophet of the prophetic dua. And the Hadith goes on. That
was a Luca Rebo Vidal Cadore beautiful phrase here was Sir Luca Reba badolato. I asked you Oh Allah,
that after your decree comes, you grant me contentment of that decree. We can change Allah's
brother, we cannot change other. But we have to accept that other and be content. We don't have to
be happy. We have to be content, there's a difference between the two. Nobody is happy at a
calamity. But once a calamity happens, we have to have a resolution in our hearts resolve it. In the
law when they erode your own. Allah is the one who says confer your con we must accept Allah SCADA,
		
00:16:32 --> 00:17:22
			even if we don't be happy at it. So he's asking for real law by the ABA. Because to reject Kava is
the essence of Khufu or with a biller to reject it why did this happen to me? This should not have
happened to me you are rejecting the power of Allah subhanaw taala so the Profit System is asking Oh
ALLAH one your papa comes grant me contentment at that Kaaba. So this is the next phrase few phrases
left here was a Luca let's that another sorry was barra de la Shiva added mode? And oh Allah I asked
you for the coolness of living after death. What again, interesting too, ah, after I die, I want to
live a good life. Subhan Allah when you make this dua, your mentality changes. death does not become
		
00:17:22 --> 00:18:07
			the end it becomes the beginning. Oh Allah I asked you for the coolness of life after death. Imagine
you're asking Allah, you're looking forward to the real life. You want the life that is sweet, the
life that is good, beginning with the Barossa and continuing all the way to Jana. Oh Allah I ask you
for the coldness of life after death Subhanallah the whole again for the Muslim for the Mothman
death is not the end rather it is a milestone that all of us have to pass and after that milestone
we want to have the real life so oh Allah I ask you for the best life the beautiful life the life
that is cool and sweet that will come to me when after death Subhanallah again, the mentality
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:47
			changes and the phrase then the Hadith goes on was Oh Luca let that another ILA will check. This is
one of the phrases that is why the hadith of Amara is so is so important in my Masha for others,
they use this hadith to prove the doctrine which is mainstream Sunni doctrine, non Sunni is denied
the Morteza denied the others denied it and that is to look at the face of Allah subhanaw taala
right, it's in the Quran. Would you whom and another little bit and now they're up to looking at
Allah azza wa jal is one of the key doctrines of the Quran and Sunnah. And we understand that we
affirm this in earlier times there were other groups and this and that they denied it. They said how
		
00:18:47 --> 00:19:23
			can we see Allah this means he's this and that they went down their philosophical way. The hadith is
what was a Luca let that another body in our trick, and Oh Allah, I ask you, the sweetness of
looking at your face, the sweetness of looking at your face. Now the looking at the face of Allah
subhanho wa Taala is the highest blessing of Jana. Nobody will get it unless they are of Jana
automatically. Only the people of gender will get it and it is the best blessing of Jana.
		
00:19:24 --> 00:20:00
			Even Jana itself becomes negligible when you see the face of Allah subhanho wa Taala Lilla Dina
Arsinoe those who do good and husana will get the perfection of Jana was Jada and more than Jana.
This is in the Quran. Those who do good will get Jana and more than Jana. The prophets have said a
zyada another row into which he called Kareem the extra zyada it is to look at the face of Allah
subhanho wa Taala and if Nakayama has a beautiful passage in his description of gender
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:47
			Were salata Juma in Jannah. will not be a hottie been hotbeds. No. So that'll Joomla or there is no
Serrato Joomla Joomla will be one couches will be spread and people will sit down and gaze at the
face of Allah subhanho wa Taala that is Joomla the Joomla of Jana is not like us, no, there is no
Salah there is no but July time, what will happen? July time is the weekly the weekly time where the
people of Ghana will gaze upon the face of Allah subhanho wa Taala and everyone will be in
accordance with his MACOM with his family with his good deeds, the more was the common good deeds,
the more the longer that gays will be. But everybody in Jannah will get that case. And our Prophet
		
00:20:47 --> 00:21:32
			system described it as left that another the sweetness of looking there is nothing sweeter than that
gaze of ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada when were able to see Allah and that does not happen in this dunya as
we know, Musa us he didn't get it in this dunya you cannot get it. It is only in the era that Allah
azza wa jal says in the Quran, Canada in the home Arab Bamyan within the module Boone on that day,
the people who rejected Allah shall have a barrier between them and Allah Imam Shafi commented on
this he said, when Allah shall punish the kafir with the barrier, this indicates he shall reward the
believer by lifting the barrier. You get the point here right? When Allah says gala in the home Arab
		
00:21:32 --> 00:22:17
			DeMeo Mithila Matthew Boone, the kuffaar shall be blocked from Allah azza wa jal from seeing Allah
in mama Shaeffer he said, When the kuffaar will be blocked, and that is a punishment. This means the
believers will not be blocked and it will be a reward and the whole Quran and Sunnah mentions this
and the editor Ahmad is explicit. Oh Allah, I asked you for the length of looking at your beautiful
face was Shoka Isla de quoi, Oh Allah, I asked you for the desire to meet you to be excited to meet
you choke, even in order to choke right? You want to have the show? The desire, the eagerness to
meet Allah. Again, this is a beautiful Hadith and phrase here, not the desire of death because
		
00:22:17 --> 00:22:58
			nobody desires death. But what will happen after death to meet Allah I should be excited to meet
Allah. And the Prophet system is saying, Oh Allah make me excited to meet you. Give me that
trepidation gives me that desire, that yearning that Oh ALLAH eventually I want to meet you. And
when we have that desire, will it not be manifested on our actions and good deeds want to our entire
life change when we're thinking about the aka looking at Allah, the desire to meet Allah, so this
this hadith, by the way, it's so beautiful, because it combines this dunya and the next give me the
best of this dunya make my life good over here. Allow me to live as long as I live and then die when
		
00:22:58 --> 00:23:38
			death is better for me. And I want you to meet you, Oh Allah, I want the desire to meet you. I want
to see your face, when you keep on saying this dua. Right? What will the problems of this dunya be
to you? Nothing, you don't care. There's the eternal life afterwards, when you're eager to meet
Allah, then you're not troubled by what is happening in this dunya. So we'll show you that fear Lady
Laura mudra Wella fitness a mandala and Oh Allah, allow me to meet you. But I don't want the death
to happen in a calamity that is harmful or in a fitna. That is misguiding. In other words, all of
these phrases, they they imply death. I'm going to die. I'm going to meet you, I'm gonna see you. Oh
		
00:23:38 --> 00:24:21
			Allah, I don't want my death to be bought raw Madeira. The raw is like a general calamity that is
harming lots of people. I don't want to die in that type of calamity. Well, I fit that in mandala
and neither in a misguiding time that might misguide me a fitna happens and I turn left to right and
my death comes to me No, I don't want that allow the death come to me when in a state where my Eman
is strong, and the calamity is not affecting me and my family. So we ask Allah for a dignified
death. And this is what this phrase implies. And then the final phrase of this hadith, Allahu Mirza
Yin busyness and Eman were Jana who that and motored in the final phrase Allahumma Zina busyness in
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:59
			Eman, O Allah beautify us with the beauty of Eman close me with the close of iman. Oh Allah allow a
man to make me beautiful. I don't want to be beautiful because of my wealth. I don't want people to
like me because of my fame. No, my Xena that which brings me admiration and respect. My Xena should
be Iman let my Eman speak for me. The Yin busyness and Iman was your Unoh who Dalton moto deen and
oh Allah make me of those who are guided and allow me to guide other people. Oh Allah make me of
those who are guided and make me so guided that others will be
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:35
			It is through me and because of me, this is the famous hadith of Ahmad vinyasa, and you will find it
in every prayer book and you can literally Google the dua of amount of vinyasa. There's only one I
might have been SS only a few Hadith, and only one of them is along dua. So if you Google the dua of
Amara vinyasa, you will find this beautiful phrase and you will Inshallah, download it and use it in
