hammerberg as we are winding down our series of lectures, we have three lectures left inshallah
Tada. And today and tomorrow I will be discussing some of the conclusionary remarks that we need for
this topic. If you remember the topic, I hope all of you remember it is the branches of a man. And
we began in the very beginning with the beautiful parable of the tree of a man that Allah subhana wa
tada mentions. So today and tomorrow, I want to discuss what are some of those fruits of the tree
that Allah promises in the Quran? Allah tells us in the Quran, that the tree of Eman is giving us
00:00:59 -->
00:01:42
our fruits throughout the seasons throughout all the times. So what is the benefit of having the
tree of a man? Why should I and you be eager and enthused to have that tree and to cultivate that
tree and to grow that tree? What are the fruits that I should be looking forward to for that tree
and we will mention around 20 Plus or so. So this is going to be for today and for tomorrow in sha
Allah, Allah. The first and no doubt one of the most important in fact, the most important other
than the last one. The biggest fruit other than the last word that will mention tomorrow is of
course the fruit of gender itself. ie Eamon is a necessary precondition to enter agenda. Now this
00:01:42 -->
00:02:31
leads us to a deep theological issue. And to be very simple, I'm going to put it in a simple
language as we can our Prophet sallallahu Sallam said in a hadith in Sahih Muslim in who lanyard
hole janetta no one is going to enter agenda in Neff soon Muslim except for a Muslim soul. This is
something that is explicit now. We do believe that somebody who has never heard the message of Islam
and is unaware perhaps this person if he or she was righteous and their other conditions met, they
might be forgiven. But we believe as a matter of principle, that Islam is the only path that leads
to Allah subhanho wa Taala. No other path leads to Allah in the DNA in the law in Islam, the only
00:02:31 -->
00:03:11
religion in the eyes of Allah is an Islam, why am I here but definitely higher on Islamic DNA and
further new cobalamin. Whoever chooses other than Islam as a way of life, it shall not be accepted
of him on our Prophet sallallahu. I said I'm setting a heavy that is Mota awatea mancala la ilaha
illAllah de la agenda, whoever says La ilaha illa Allah shall enter agenda. The understanding
therefore is the one who refuses to say the one who is aware of La ilaha illAllah but does not say
it shall not enter agenda. So this is of the most important fruits of a man that gender is promised
to those who have La ilaha illAllah. At some level at some level as we talked about throughout the
00:03:11 -->
00:03:52
series, it's more than just verbalizing it is to implement La ilaha illAllah. The second fruit is
linked to the first but it is not the same. And that is to be saved from jahannam to be saved from
Jana is not the same as to enter agenda. And this goes back to a talk I gave three weeks ago at the
beginning of the month regarding the levels of Eman we set the lowest level of EMA and the lowest
level of Islam. It guarantees eventual admittance to gender, but then we said that is not the level
that is required by a law it is a higher level what level you should be at is more than the bare
minimum and if you get to that level and we explained back then that that level is the outcome the
00:03:52 -->
00:04:37
five are can and to avoid the major sins. If you are at that level, you get the second fruit the
second perk, what is the second perk that is whoever has achieved the level that allow requires of a
man shall bypass jahannam guaranteed This is in the Quran and in the Sunnah. Now we can never know
for sure if we have bypassed that level until Judgment Day, but we hope and we're scared in case we
don't the hope and fear goes back again. So the second perk if you like of Eamon if you reach the
minimum required level is that no matter what other punishments come, the worst punishment, which is
the punishment of jahannam will never ever go to the believer, and there will be a category of
00:04:37 -->
00:04:59
believers. We don't want to be amongst them who will go through jahannam for a period of time, then
they will enter agenda. This Hadith isn't so high Bahati that our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said there will be a group of people in Jana, they will be called Johanna miyun from
jahannam. And they will have gone through jahannam eventually they'll get to agenda but the scars
are still gonna be there. So one day
00:05:00 -->
00:05:36
They will make dua to Allah, Oh Allah, we don't like these scars that sets us apart from the rest of
the people of gender. So Allah will then give them a river and they will dive into that river, then
those scars will be taken away. But the point is there is a group of people and we don't want to be
amongst them, they will not go to gender directly, they will not get that per quarter. They these
are the Muslims who commit major sins, murder, and they don't repent, or they're doing some heinous
crimes, or they're not doing the watch of art properly. And their whole lifestyle is basically on
the verge if you like, but they're still believers deep down inside. Those are the categories of
00:05:36 -->
00:06:18
people, that is a possibility they will go through jahannam we don't want to get there we want to
get directly to agenda. The third blessing and fruit of a man is that a man acts as the key to
unlock all of our other good deeds. Allah only accepts from the most men from the majority from the
righteous in yet acaba de la who mineral myrcene, Allah only accepts from the Morrison and another
verse from the Metatron. Allah accepts from the machete from the righteous. So if you do not have
eemaan, your good deeds will not be rewarded by Allah. And of course, that's common sense because if
they were awarded by a law, you will go to jedna. If you don't have a man, a person who does not
00:06:18 -->
00:07:01
have a man will not be rewarded by a law with the agenda. How will they be rewarded? Allah mentions
in the Koran men can you read will hire to dunya was enough to her or whoever wanted this world and
he wasn't interested in the next world. Basically a person who doesn't believe in Allah, a person
who doesn't believe in the Hereafter, whoever wants this world and he does not desire the hereafter.
Allah says we shall return all of his good deeds in this world, and he will not be shortchanged all
of the good that he has done. He'll get it back and he'll get perks in this world, a good life,
money, wealth, health, fame, fortune, he never wanted the hero. Why should he get the accurate he
00:07:01 -->
00:07:44
never wanted a lot. Why should a love reward him but a lot is so just even when a non believer a
counterfeiter, he does a good deed. She does a good deed. If they feed the poor, they build a
hospital, they're nice, they will get their reward back, but it will be something of this world. The
only way that the hero will also get your reward is if you have a man and that's why we learn in the
Quran. That if you have a man, man, I made a cider ham in Zakat and the author woman whoever does
good whether they're male or female, while they have a man, those are the people kindness Are you
homeschooled or their efforts will be rewarded. If you do not have a man, then Allah will not reward
00:07:44 -->
00:08:29
your efforts in the hereafter. EMR is a key that unlocks a lot of acceptance of your other good
deeds. Number four of the blessings and fruits of a man the very fact that you have a man is a
catalyst to forgive you of your sins. What in Nila have fallen Lehman taba Amina Amina saw the
handsome Matata I shall forgive over and over again to all those who repent and they have a man and
they do good deeds. So merely having a man and just saying suffered a lot stuff and a lot of stuff
and a lot that he man is so powerful that in fact forgives your good deeds and there are many
mechanisms for forgiving good deeds. We mentioned some of them like the will do like the prayer
00:08:29 -->
00:09:14
simply doing these deeds will automatically forgive once you have a man and that is of the blessings
of human number five over the blessings of a man is that Allah subhanho wa Taala will defend you in
the law her Yuda Pharaoh and in Latina amanu Allah will defend on behalf of those who believe so
Allah Himself will defend when you are going to be harmed when there's an enemy going to attack in
this verse was revealed before one of the battles of the prophets of Allah it was Selim and Allah
said I will defend you in the law you doubt fear Allah will protect you. And this leads to the sixth
blessing of a man, the sixth blessing of a man, the true men and fears none other than Allah subhana
00:09:14 -->
00:09:59
wa Tada. And in Olia, Allah He the whole family him without whom he has known those that are
righteous and have a man they have no cause to fear nor any cause to worry. So he man blesses you
with a courage. Eman blesses you with a conviction with a fortitude that you will not fear in the
face of great drama of great fear of great enemies attacking when you're in a situation where others
might be terrified your eemaan will give you the confidence that you need. No and this leads me to
the next point and that is that the min finds comfort and solace in his or her faith. Allah says in
the Quran regarding the incident of Azov when they were surrounded alladhina all in a homerun nasu
00:09:59 -->
00:09:59
in an
00:10:00 -->
00:10:44
NASA Jemma our home for azada, home imana, when the people were told everybody of mankind has
gathered to fight you, aren't you terrified, and the believers said, hacer una La Jolla and
Milwaukee and their Eman went up. So the min is able to cope with many of the problems of this
world. Now this leads me to a very important disclaimer, and that is that there are medical symptoms
are not called depression, there are certain things that bring about depression, eemaan and
depression are not directly or causally linked together. There are people that can be depressed even
if they have good Eman. However, by and large, generally speaking, having a man having a loving
00:10:44 -->
00:11:22
family having some of the worldly blessings, generally speaking, it helps in the Battle of
depression. But it is not necessary, it is possible that a person is actually depressed, clinically
depressed, even if they have a man and they need to go see a therapist or counselor. So that's
something important. But we also need to point out that generally speaking, one of the factors that
helps a person cope when they're down in the dumps, as we say, when everything seems to be lost and
gone, one of the mechanisms that should help doesn't always help because sometimes there are medical
issues that there has to be dealt with, from a psychological perspective. But generally speaking,
00:11:22 -->
00:12:02
just like if you have a loving family, if you have a good friend generally is going to help you
battle you know, something negative in your life. So the greatest of these blessings that will help
you battle a negative time of your life, if all other circumstances are met, is that to a man. So
the more men, generally speaking, will find comfort from a man. And again, I make this disclaimer
because sometimes some people are suffering from depression because of issues that are beyond human
beyond family beyond. And that's a medical issue a psychiatrist has to evaluate that has nothing to
do with this talk. However, I reiterate, the average person shall find comfort with faith. And faith
00:12:02 -->
00:12:46
is something that helps us battle when we're negative in life. And this also, by the way, explains
why so many people when they go through something traumatic, they become religious, when they go
through a painful time of their lives. They discover Islam, because that's when they realize nothing
brings the comfort of religion, nothing sort of calms down the psyche, nothing is a soothing
mechanism to the soul, like the worship of Allah is so a man helps us cope with the problems of this
world of the blessings of a man is that a man will always make us a winner in any situation. The
moment is never a loser. Our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, amazing are the affairs of
00:12:46 -->
00:13:30
the believer for the believer is always a winner. If good happens, he thanks Allah, and that's for
his good. And if something bad happens, he's patient, and that's where his good a moltmann is never
a loser in any situation. No matter what happens in the eyes of a law, you are a winner. And that's
a huge point of comfort. If you have a man and you have a connection with a law, nothing in this
world is an ultimate calamity for you. In the end, it will be for your benefit in the hereafter. And
that's of the biggest blessings of a man of the blessings of the man is that he man blesses us to
find a way out of every difficulty. Woman Yeah, tequila hajjaj Allahu Maharaja, whoever has the
00:13:30 -->
00:14:13
taqwa of Allah, Allah will find a way out for him while Yoda zuckermann heyfield A is him and his
source of sustenance will come from places he never expected from woman yet what Colorado law he
fought who has fought whoever puts his trust in a law a law is sufficient for him. And of the
blessings of this the final word will mention today of the blessings of a man is that a man raises a
person's ranks in this world and the next Jada ferry law hula Deena Armando Minh come while the dino
Turin madora. Judge, Allah raises the ranks of those who have a man and those who have knowledge
amongst you, their ranks are raised up in this world they are beloved, everybody loves them. The
00:14:13 -->
00:14:41
community loves them. They become icons of any community that people have faith, those that are
humble, they might not have all the fame or the money but when they have a man they are beloved
Allah raises the ranks in this world and more importantly, Allah raises the ranks in the next
inshallah will continue the blessings of Eman tomorrow and of course the biggest blessing is left
which is I'll save it for the last and that is the 20th blessing insha Allah Allah will continue
