			your Muslims do you know that our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was always eager and excited
to meet the angel Jibreel he would be looking forward when God comes down, I shall to the Allahu
Allah says that he would even use the miswak like look and and try to appear the best and even smell
the best. And in fact, once he asked Djiboutian that, oh god, why don't you come more often? Why
don't you visit us more often? We want to see you more. And Allah then revealed in the Quran, a
verse that we recite to this day, one at 10, zero 11 Arabic we can only come down when Allah allows
us to come down. I wish I could come but not it's Allah's decision. When Allah tells us to come, we
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:55
			come. And Gibreel said, the prophets Assam said to Djiboutian Oh gibril Let me see you in your
original form. So Gibreel said Make dua to Allah I kept this from Allah as decision make dua to
Allah. And so the prophecies are made dua that oh Allah allow me to see God in His original form.
And so Allah gifted him that Allah gifted him that vision, in one of the most amazing miracles that
was given to our Prophet Sall Allahu Allah, he was seldom to be in the presence of God, and to see
God in His original form. This is something that not many of the Creation have been blessed with.
Allah blessed our Nebby sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to be in the presence of the original gibril
		
00:01:55 --> 00:02:35
			Jibreel as Allah created him. Generally when GBT would come he would come in the form of a man.
Generally when Gibreel came down, he would not be in His original form, when the process and made
dua, ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada granted him that door out when did he grant him that dua on the night of
Israel? Well miraj when the prophecies of went to visit Allah subhanho wa taala, and he met all of
the prophets, and he saw all of these amazing signs. One of the most amazing blessings of that night
the whole night was a miracle. The whole night was a blessing, but one of the most amazing blessings
which Allah referenced in the Quran, Allah mentioned it in the Quran. That's how magnificent it is,
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:52
			is that the prophets of sin saw God in His original form. Allah says in the Quran, lcada Rahman,
Tierra del Cobre, he saw of the most amazing couponraja Kabir of the most biggest miracles of Allah
he saw.
		
00:02:53 --> 00:03:39
			And Allah azza wa jal references this vision, what was the vision the Prophet system seeing Gibreel
in His original form, and in fact, Gibreel as we know is the chosen of all of the angels like our
Prophet system is the chosen of all mankind. Allah says in the Quran, Allah who use sloughi mineral
mana it Cthulhu Sunon Wamena gnas Allah chooses Rasul from the melodica and Rasul from the, from the
mankind. So Allah chose from the mana Iike the most best of them Gibreel and Allah chose from the
Rasul of the humans, the best of them, our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Gibreel, visited
every single prophet, every single messenger Gibreel spoke with every single profit from the 124,000
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:55
			from the beginning of time, up until our Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Allah He was selling them, one
of the most amazing miracles and creations of Allah. And he would come regularly in the time of the
Prophet sallallahu. Either he was selling them, and then our profits are some left this earth,
		
00:03:56 --> 00:04:40
			one of the senior most Sahaba in terms of age, even though she is not well known amongst many
Muslims is somebody by the name of Baraka on me. Amen. Oh, may Amon, was Abdul multiple lives gift
to Abdullah the father of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, she was a slave at the time. And
she was probably eight 910 years old. She took care of the Prophet system when the process was born.
And she was like a second mother to him. And she saw me Can you imagine what she saw? She saw
everything from the beginning. And she lived until after the Prophet system she passed away a few
years after the Prophet system. Can you imagine how we wish we could hear her stories insha Allah
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:46
			when they engender we hope we can ask her all the stories we want. After the death of the Prophet
salallahu Salam,
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:59
			Abu Bakr and Umar Radi Allahu Anhu. They said, You know, we should visit only Amon like our prophets
or some would regularly do this call Surah to rhyme This is called fulfilling the ties of the dead
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:38
			The Prophet system would visit this motherly figure in his life regularly. She was a freed slave.
She was not somebody known to many people, but she took care of the Prophet system. So after the
death of the process of Bukhara Omar said, Let us go visit only Amen like the Prophet system used to
visit so the two senior most companions visited me Amen. When she saw them all the memories flooded
back and she began crying and sobbing. Abu Bakr said, yeah, oh Ma, our dear mother, we all miss the
prophets of Allah who either he was sending them inshallah he's in a better place. Now he's in fifth
dose. What did only Amen say? She said, Well, Allah, He, I know he is in a better place. And of
		
00:05:38 --> 00:06:21
			course we missed him. But I am crying. Listen to this. Because the connection that we had with
Allah, and the way that would come down Gibreel would come visit us that has now been cut off. We
don't have that connection anymore. With the going away of the prophets, Allah Allahu Allah, he was
setting them, there is no more why he coming down. There is no new Quran coming. We will be excited
when the revelation can we be excited when God came with something new, she was crying because that
connection with Gibreel had been cut off. That connection with the way had been cut off. This was
how they would look forward to a new revelation that God would bring down. Dear Muslims.
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:33
			Why am I talking about God? Because Allah has blessed every one of us with the opportunity to be in
the presence of God.
		
00:06:34 --> 00:07:25
			There is a night that is so blessed that there is a night that is so magnificent, that Allah azza wa
jal has allowed the greatest creation of his angels. Allah has commanded the most magnificent of all
of the angels to come down and be in our presence because of the blessedness of that night. It is
the only night of the year the Jubilee visit starts again after the demise of the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wasallam. And of course, he comes down the way he is, we cannot see him but he is as he is
turnersville Mana Iike to war rule hilfi. Allah mentions it for us. He wants us to know it's not a
normal night. It's not an average night. I am sending the best of the angels down to all of you
		
00:07:25 --> 00:08:15
			don't you understand and realize, I am allowing God to come and I'm telling him and Allah references
to us. He literally reminds us all mankind, I am telling you, God, this coming down. That's how
special this night is. Tonight, saloon Mala Iike to war Ruhul. Fiat, the rule and it is God, all of
the angels come and Gibreel. So Allah mentions all the angels, and then he mentions only one because
there is only one God. And Allah reminds us this is the only day that God is going to come down. One
of the Sahaba It is narrated that he would have special codes that he would put in a special box,
and he would wear it not on the read. But on later to other one of his family members said that oh
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:54
			Father, why are you dressing like this on later to cut it wait for it to come? And he said
Subhanallah Gibreel is coming down? Shouldn't I dress up for him? Gibreel is coming shouldn't I
prepare myself to be prepared? When I come? I'm looking my best one Djiboutian sees me. Another of
the tab your own would have his most expensive perfume, he would store it in a container, and he
would use that perfume every night of the odd nights of Ramadan so that he's smelling the best. This
is the philosophy the psychology of the self, that they appreciated, they understood that the angels
are going to be in our midst and the angels are seeing us and we want to look our best appear our
		
00:08:54 --> 00:09:38
			best do our best because the angels see us and they make dua for us when they see our Ibadah when
the angel see a standing and pm in such the in Tilawat This is on any night, not just from Yvonne on
any night when the angels see us they make us didn't fall for us. They ask Allah azza wa jal to
bless us this is in the Quran and Sunnah we all know, but especially on a little other, can you
imagine we have the opportunity for God to make dua for us, for God to see us and see us in pm and
see us in such depth how can we possibly give up that opportunity? How can we let go of this
blessing and prize that has been given to us the greatest of all angels is coming down and he shall
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:59
			scour this entire earth and we have the opportunity to be standing and praying and asking Allah azza
wa jal and to be witnessed by those angels, Laila to other women will come. Leila will order the
phrasing of the Quran which will make you understand you will never understand our limited minds
will never comprehend the magnificence that
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:37
			It is Laila to other when Allah says warmer the raka the meaning here is you're never going to
understand but I'll try to explain to you that from our limited minds way maybe you will understand
that this one night is better than 1000 months Laila to color the high you don't mean elfish out
maybe you will understand this one aspect it is better than not equivalent to better than it's more
than one night is more than a lifetime of worship. It is narrated in the motto of Imam Malik there
are prophets Allah Allahu Allah, he was seldom looked at the previous lifespans, and he realized
they live for many, many centuries. And he said, Oh Allah, how can my ummah compete with those
		
00:10:37 --> 00:11:19
			people? My own was going to live for 6070 years. They live for hundreds of years. How can my Alma
compete with them as a loving prophet? What he was worried about? He wanted to see us succeed. He
wanted to see us number one, and he is saying yeah, Allah, how can my Alma compete when they had a
longer time? And so Allah subhana wa Taala revealed only for our own mother, he blessed us with
Leila two other every year he gave us a night that one night is equivalent to more than 80 years of
worship. So every year we live it is as if we have a lifetime of worship that the other Roombas did
not have this as a unique blessing given to our OMA no previous OMA was given it Laylatul Audrey
		
00:11:19 --> 00:12:04
			hieromonk l Fisher her this one night of worship will give us more than 83 years of continuous
worship Subhanallah brothers and sisters, how stingy can we be? How miserly can we be? How can we
possibly not be excited to wake wake up the night of labor to other and to do extra on labor to do
the math every minute of labor to an other is worth more than two and a half months of worship?
Every minute? Can you imagine simply saying 10 times Subhan Allah will give you two and a half
months of vicar and a bada. How can we possibly trivialize this blessing that ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala
has given us Laila to other it is called the literal other because other means magnificence other
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:45
			means significance. It is the most magnificent night and those who worship Allah on that night
become magnificent. Those who worship Allah become other become people of status, little other is
called other because other means predestination. And on this night, our cover is announced for the
rest of the year. On this night, Allah subhanho wa Taala tells the angels our mother who shall live
who shall die Who shall be given a child who shall increase it is whose sickness is going to be
cured who shall fall sick on this night Allah announces to the angels the roster the list of duties
of what they have to do for the rest of the year, then as Zulu Mala eco we're roofie ha be in the
		
00:12:45 --> 00:13:29
			rugby him min Cooley amor every affair that has been decreed min Cooley amor everything that has
been decreed the angels come down there tasks have been assigned and what did our prophets Allah
Allahu Allah he was setting them say nothing changes Kadar other than do nothing changes other other
than dua. In other words, our dua has the impact has the possibility has the potentiality to change
our color? How can we not be begging Allah while our cutter is being decided while our cover is
being announced? How can we not be standing in prayer and begging Allah Oh Allah bless us with the
best other of this year. Oh Allah give us the best of this world and the best of the next world. Oh
		
00:13:29 --> 00:14:12
			ALLAH forgive our sins. Our do ours on that night have the potential to affect the upcoming year how
can we be asleep out of laziness and not to be standing in prayer Our mother I should know the
Allahu anha says that our prophets of Allah Who are they he was sending him would never spend the
whole night awake on any night of the year he would sleep certain portions of the night 1/3 half two
thirds he would sleep except for the last 10 nights of Ramadan. The only time of the entire year
that he would not sleep until after fajr is the last 10 nights and on those 10 Nights our Prophet
our mother Aisha says he would tighten his belt we all know what that means you're going to get
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:47
			serious now he would raise up his sleeves we say in English he would tighten his belt and he would
wake his family and he would spend the entire night in a bother now brothers and sisters I know we
have to be realistic. And I know many of us have jobs and we have to go to work at eight 9am The
next morning I understand many of us cannot spend the whole night awake by the way those who can
they should and those who are able to take holidays Wallahi if you can take a holiday or two on the
odd nights of the next day. It is better than taking a holiday to go on a vacation or something.
This is the real holiday that you try to have. But if you can do it fine. If you cannot do that I
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:59
			understand we cannot spend the whole night awake, at least spend whatever you can. There is no time
in the entire year that is more precious than this time of Laylatul Qadr that is why Allah calls it
Laila mobile
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:41
			aka The Quran mentions that it will cover many times three times in Surah Takada and two times
outside of the surah. Five times Allah references later to cover in Anza. Now Fei Li let him move
out raka we have sent this Quran down on a blessed night, Allah chose this night to reveal the Quran
Laila to other was the night the incident of Accra took place on the next day. This is a special day
from the beginning of history from the revelation of the Quran. This is the night that Allah azza wa
jal chose, it is a Leila mo Baraka What does mu Baraka mean? Mu Baraka means it is blessing more
Baraka means a small amount goes a long way. Baraka means to increase the utility of something. So,
		
00:15:41 --> 00:16:23
			one night has been increased to 83 years. What more Baraka Do you want one night will give you a
lifetime of worship? And that night is only eight hours, and actually from after Isha. It's only six
hours, six hours. That's all that it is. How can we trivialize those six hours they are more
precious to us than any time of the year. So dear brothers and sisters, we're about to enter that
phase and it is so blessed and it is so magnificent that our profit system linked our entire
salvation to that one night in the famous Hadith and Sunnah. Anessa when the month of Ramadan began,
our Prophet system stood up to give a sermon and he said, a blessed month has come to you. In it is
		
00:16:23 --> 00:17:15
			a night that is better than 1000 months out of all of the things of Ramadan. At the beginning of the
month, he reminded them there is one night that is better than 1000 months. Then he said, listen to
this, whoever is deprived of the blessings of that night has been deprived of all good if you cannot
motivate yourself to do something extra on those nights that Allah He when can you motivate yourself
a blood question? If you're not going to be able to motivate yourself to do something extra on these
nights? few nights, five nights that are odd five candidates 2123 2527 29 that's all that it is. And
if you do not have it in you to do something extra as much as you can. Our Prophet sallallahu alayhi
		
00:17:15 --> 00:17:55
			wa sallam said whoever is deprived man how Roma whoever deprives himself from those nights. How do
Malhotra Kula all good has been deprived of him if you're not going to change in Ramadan. And if
you're not going to sacrifice for Laila to other than what could you possibly sacrifice for? And
that is why our iman our salvation is linked to doing something on later to further that's why our
profit system linked the entire forgiveness of Ramadan, whoever fasted Ramadan, whoever stands in
prayer and Ramadan. And then he said whoever stands in prayer on Laila to other all of his previous
sins will be forgiven. Dear Brothers and Sisters, we don't know exactly when they look what it is,
		
00:17:55 --> 00:18:37
			we all know the controversies are prophets and some did not tell us out of a wisdom to him, Allah
azza wa jal chose not to tell us he said, in an authentic hadith that I wanted to tell you that it
will other but Allah subhanaw taala took that knowledge away. And perhaps that is better for you.
This hadith isn't Behati he came out to tell us the exact night he knew it. And then Allah lifted
that knowledge from him. Then he said, so whoever wants to find it, find it in one of the odd last
nights of Ramadan, five candidates come on, how lazy can you possibly be? We have 365 days of the
year five candidates, that's all that it is 2123 2527 29 And out of them 2325 27 are the highest
		
00:18:37 --> 00:19:19
			candidates and out of them 27 is the highest candidate Yes, but we do not know for certain what day
is later to call what night is laters other so every one of these nights Dear brothers and sisters,
that is a candidate for the other one of the Sahaba said Wallahi if Allah did not tell us, even the
month of later to cover the blessings are so much it would be enough for us to pray to her every
single night because one of the nights must be dated. How much more so when Allah has said one month
how much more so when he has said the last 10 days how much more so when he has said the odd nights
of the last 10 days. Allah has made it so easy for you show Allah that you want to get later to
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:41
			unclouded show Allah that every one of these nights you're going to do something and insha Allah Who
to Allah, Allah will see that sincerity and dedication and will bless us to be of those who prey on
Laila to other May Allah subhana wa Tada bless me and you with and through the Quran. And May He
make us of those whose verses they understand and applies halal and haram throughout our lifespan.
Ask Allah's forgiveness you as well ask him for his love of food and the rock man.
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:59
			hamdulillah who I had it I had a summit Let me welcome you let me Akula who phoned Eduardo. So what
should we do on
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:39
			later to another, what are the main things to be done? Obviously, the greatest act of worship on the
other is the salah. And that is why we pray extra on Laila to other and that is because Salah
combines between all of the above that Salah has recorded so Allah has such the salah has the law of
the Quran, Salah has dhikr sada has DUA and especially on Laila to cuddle, we should elongate our PA
and we will be doing the arms as well here in the masjid and you're free to come here and if you're
able to pray at home as well pray at home and if you're able to do more for sure at home do more
kosher at home between home and the masjid you choose the one where your kosher is more for some
		
00:20:39 --> 00:21:15
			people they can attain better tranquility at home when they're alone. And for others they need to
hear the Quran and being the ambience whichever one works for you. Whether you do it private or
whether you do it in public. The goal is that your whole sure is there and even if you come to the
masjid, the Masjid will be our taraweeh and they will have pm at night and there's plenty of other
hours as well. So the number one deed that should be done is that of Salah, and in the Salah, we
should elongate the search and the record and we should recite much Quran so this salah is a long
set up and in the search we increase our do as we ask Allah subhana wa Tada from sincerity from our
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:56
			hearts we ask Allah begging Allah azza wa jal knowing he can hear us knowing only He can give us
what we want. We open our hearts to Allah and have a direct conversation in a secret voice and a
small whispering and Allah hears that whispering we should have minimal your pain that Allah is
Hearing and seeing and Allah can give us what we want. So the number one action is that of Salah
number two that also between the Salah is that we do because we cannot just pray all eight hours or
seven hours between the Salah we do vicar and we taste the speed and the tech lead and meet and we
say is still far and we say the famous dua that our profits are some taught Isha Allahumma indica fu
		
00:21:56 --> 00:22:40
			one two hibel Alpha four Anna This is a powerful dua because I fu means to erase all of our sins. It
is actually more powerful than Mo Farah macfeather is also powerful, but it means to cover the sins
I feel means it's as if it never existed. So I flew to wipe the paper clean there is no trace left
there's no markings as it's as if we never did the sin so we want this Ramadan to wipe our sins
clean as if we never did them Allahumma indica Alpha One Two hibel alpha for our for Anna, that's
the DUA that we make as well. On this night, we should do any good deed, especially feeding the
hungry and giving charity so from now before those nights begin earmark, where am I going to give my
		
00:22:40 --> 00:23:19
			charity look at the charities you want. And then on those nights if you can physically go and give
or these days online if you can give but no the charities are going to give to and then give
something every single one of those nights. Can you imagine a charity that will give you the reward
of 1000 months of continuous charity. So give charity on this night as well on this night of the
deeds that are good to do and not a lot not a lot of people think about them is the cleansing of the
heart internal look at your own heart. What diseases are there? jealousy, hatred? Do you have
something in your heart against somebody cleanse it make it a pure heart make it a libsodium you
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:57
			will be pure and Allah azza wa jal will bless you. Also on this night, Sen Rahim, it's a night to
have connections with those family members that you caught off of the greatest of good deeds is to
be connected with your family, and especially prepare for that read because on the day of readers,
well, we want to be connected with our family, every single good deed that we do every single good
deed and of course of the things that we do. We make dua for our mother, we make dua for the
upcoming year we make dua that Allah Subhana Allah blesses us with the best in this upcoming year.
And of the things that we need to make dua for is our iman and our taqwa and our guidance, dear
		
00:23:57 --> 00:24:39
			Muslims, our two hours should not only be about this dunya Yes, make dua of this dunya we want
money, we all want good money and have that money. We want good family, we want peace. All of us
want this but make sure along with the dua of this world, we make dua for the next world we make dua
for guidance in hedaya we make dua for mum Farah, we make dua for the guidance of our children for
the Eman of our children. This is the night to make dua for all of these things. It is the dua of
other brothers and sisters. There is no more blessing time in the entire year than the upcoming time
and Allah gives a custom while February while a URL in Azure the 10 nights while fidgety with a yard
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:59
			in Azure. These are the 10 nights we are about to enter them. So brothers and sisters get
psychologically prepared, get motivated, understand the significance of these days and then give it
your utmost because your brothers and sisters statistically again, there are people sitting right
here that are not going to be here next year. There are
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:29
			People sitting right here statistically, that are in all likelihood not going to be here next year.
For some of us. This might be our last Ramadan. For every one of us, there will be a Ramadan that
will be our last strumble bond. So every time these 10 nights come we give it our best 110% Because
the time will come when we won't have that opportunity to give it our best. So may Allah subhanaw
taala make us of those who are standing and praying on leader to other
