Mina shavon hongji

Bismillah

00:00:13--> 00:00:14

Luna

00:00:21--> 00:00:22

We're in

00:00:28--> 00:00:29

femen

00:00:38--> 00:00:38

Do you want a

00:00:44--> 00:00:46

woman to do?

00:00:56--> 00:01:41

Salam Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh Alhamdulillah wa salatu salam ala rasulillah who Allah Allah He will be here a woman with a hammer that we are continuing in our beautiful journey of the descriptions of Jenna and we ask Allah subhana wa tada that this journey doesn't just become a journey of words and a journey of imagination, but that insha Allah who tada it becomes an actualized journey that one day we will see the realities of these descriptions. May Allah xojo make us amongst the inhabitants of Jenna and today inshallah, we will discuss the topic of the places of residence of gender. Right. So we talked in our last lesson about so many different aspects of the

00:01:41--> 00:02:28

the two lessons ago we did the waters and the springs, we did the elixirs and the juices of gender. We also talked about the different stations and levels of agenda. And we talked about the fragrance and the perfume, we talked about the beautiful wind blowing, we are now going to move on to the next major topic, and that is the houses and the palaces of Jen. Now obviously, it is understood that every single person in general, without exception, will have his or her own private residence. Obviously, you know, there are no cramped apartments in general, right? There are no shared rooms in djenne. Everybody has their own place that they can call home. And these aren't just you know, mud

00:02:28--> 00:03:12

huts standing at the side of the road. No, these are luxurious palaces beyond our imagination. And not only that, but each of these policies will have a name. And not only that, but every single person as soon as they enter gender, they will know intrinsically, they're going to enter through the door that ally Xhosa, you know blesses them to enter with and they will know intrinsically how to get to their destination, it is something that will be put into them as our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said in the famous Hadith in Sahih Bukhari I swear by the one in whose hands is my soul that one of you will know your house in gender as well as you know, the location of your house

00:03:12--> 00:03:53

in this world. You know, when we are driving back home, our mind literally goes into auto mode. You know, we when we drive, we're not even consciously thinking of where to turn right and left. We know it, we've been done it so many times. Similarly, our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told us you will automatically know you don't have to ask for directions whereas this street will know you will know and he will automatically go to agenda and in fact there is a reference to this innate knowledge in the Quran that Eliza just says and sort of Mohammed when we look at homogenic netta our Rafa whom we will admit them to a paradise that we have already caused them to know it outer Rafa

00:03:53--> 00:04:36

high level. Now our family home has been interpreted by a number of early scholars, a number of early commentators to mean that we have already made them aware of it, meaning they will know where their specific plot of gender is, they will know their land, their residents, their house, their place of abode, our Rafah ha la home, that Allah has already told them or informed them, or given them that knowledge of where it is going to be. And a lot as origin mentions various nouns with regards to the places of worship, sorry, the places of residence of them surah Toba, verse 72, that Allah says that Allah has promised those who believe in do good deeds, that he shall enter them into

00:04:36--> 00:04:59

Janette and Digi material and how to one s. Ki naka de Botton fija, naati, idun and masakan beautiful abodes. mysskin is a place of living, and masakan is the plural of meskin. So everybody will have not just one you should have multiple houses, multiple places of living, and Allah has a description.

00:05:00--> 00:05:45

Allah has an adjective massage kena to yoga, to Yoga means pure and clean to Yoga means they're never going to get filthy. There is no housework in Jenna. You do not have to wake up with a long list of chores and dust and clean and and make sure no it is a yoga massage kena Thai yoga the mess can the place of residence is going to be pure. And it is going to be Fijian knotty I did in in gardens of permanent residents. And in sort of a soft, verse 12, the same phrase is used yellow for local Muruga come where you he'll come Jannat and he Metatron how one Masaki not a year but ubit and feagin Garden in the local foods will be beautiful abodes that are going to be in gardens of Eden,

00:05:45--> 00:06:26

Eden. And indeed that is the ultimate victory. So Allah says to get to Misaki and I'll tell you about that is the ultimate victory. And of course, these houses, they will be constructed from things beyond measure. Again, I mentioned this already previously, inside Bahati, our Profit System said Lebanon to me that webinar to midfield law. And again, these are mere words, the realities are beyond this in this world. The most expensive item we know is golden silver, there's nothing more expensive than that. And our profit system is using that terminology. But the realities are way beyond anything of this world. So the profits instead of saying one brick of gold, and another brick

00:06:26--> 00:07:17

of silver, and woman out to her, meaning the the the clay that is put in between is going to be from the best type of Musk, the most expensive type of Musk, so that musk will be ground up and it will then become the clay that is put between the gold and the silver. And every single property of agenda. Every single house will be placed in massive lands in Jannat. And these Masak in Africa will be in massive lands that are private residents, and each land without exception will have its private river running through it. And the Quran has mentioned so many nouns about what is going to be on this land of them allow users the word pursued and also means palaces and of them Allah uses

00:07:17--> 00:08:03

the word boot and boot means houses or villas, and a lot of xojo uses and also the process has the term cm or tents and pavilions. And there's also the term load off or the highest levels, we're going to come to this term hoerauf and so, all of these terms are used masakan and posuere, and Bluth and cm and hoerauf all of these are different types of boats and residences, and it appears that every single person without exception will have multiple types of properties not just one. So, there will be a booth and they will be pursued and they will be CME. Everybody will have like you know in this world, you know, again, we just give an example in this world, those that are of the

00:08:03--> 00:08:47

top wealth you know, the top 1% or point 1% they have multiple properties and houses, one here one there one summer, one winter, you know one for this one for that. So if this is in this world, what do you think Allah will bless the believers within the next life and allies religion, in fact, uses a very, very interesting term only once in the Quran. In Surah insaan Allah subhanho wa Taala says, without our thumb or a Tana, amen. Well, Moodle can be raw, Allah describes the believers entering gender and Allah describes the things that they're going to be enjoying. And then Allah says, and if only he were to see without an eater, if only he looks around him thumb or ATIA, he would then see

00:08:47--> 00:09:35

what would he see not even nothing but bliss nyeem is the plural of nerima everything that he will see around him will bring him joy and comfort. And then this is a really interesting phrase here, while Moodle can can be wrong and a massive Kingdom right, a massive kingdom, every one of us will be like a king in gender, every one of us will have the equivalent of a kingdom and there will be space beyond measure and it will be ours completely ours one model can carry or a massive kingdom will just be ours. So then imagine if every one of us has a kingdom and again this goes back to the other headings that I mentioned many many lessons ago that the least person to get into gender the

00:09:35--> 00:09:59

least person who will be given the equivalent of 10 Earths or in one report 10 kingdoms, one person the lowest level of gender, what then do you think of those that are aiming to be at the highest May Allah make us amongst them, so each person will be granted an entire kingdom? Imagine the various varieties of lands imagine the joys imagine the types of properties and of course

00:10:00--> 00:10:44

Have the properties that are going to be in this kingdom is a palace, a castle or palace or everybody will have the primary place which is going to be the answer. And this is something that Allah will bless everyone with we know this from many evidences of them. The famous evidence of Asya the wife of your own car, the wife have found that that you She obviously is one of the most pious and righteous ladies in human history. And she may do our to Allah, if called it Robbie Benelli in Dec debate and Phil Jenna, that Oh Allah built for me a house close to you in general. So she knew that houses are going to be there in general, everybody has a house in general. So she wanted her

00:10:44--> 00:11:27

house to be close to Allah subhana wa Tada. And we also learned in the famous Hadith in Sahih Hadith that the Prophet says, and when he entered Jenna, he said that I entered gender. And I saw romaine saw the wife of a boufal Health Policy room I saw this is the mother of Anna Sibley Malik and she was a very, very active and pious lady. Everybody knew her for her generosity for her bravery for her kindness for her compassion. She was a figure that all of Medina knew. And in fact, she even participated. You know, as a nurse in some of the battle she literally cared for the wounded and her stories are well known. romae saw her stories are well known. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa

00:11:27--> 00:12:14

sallam said, I entered Jenna and they saw romaine, saw the wife, I will call her and I heard the footsteps of Bella. And I saw a beautiful palace. In one version, it says made of gold, in another version is that shining white and all that this is put together. So it's a beautiful palace, and there was a god a companion, you know, on the side of that palace, and I said, Who is this for? The angel said, this is for a young man from the kurush and the Prophet system said I wished it was me. So I hoped it was me. And then the angel said, No, it is for Omar yBnL hotdog, the palace was so magnificent, so beautiful, that in fact, the Prophet sallallahu wasallam thought it might be his but

00:12:14--> 00:13:00

of course his is even more magnificent. So he saw the Palace of unbelievable hubbub and it was white, it was shining white, and it was made out of gold. And it is also mentioned in the famous Hadith the prophet SAW Selim said, Whoever prays 12 Raka adds extra from the four prayers that Allah subhana wa Taala will build for him a palace or a house in general. So we now know that if you want to have a specially constructed above average right that Allah will bless you with everybody has you know a house there but you want the the extra version you want the elite version? then pray 12 Raka art and you will get the house in genda designed by Allah subhanho wa Taala gifted to you, but Allah

00:13:00--> 00:13:43

subhanho wa Taala and we also know in the famous Hadith that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that whoever builds a Masjid for the sake of Allah, Allah will build for him a house in general. So once again Now again, this does not mean that if you don't build the messenger, you won't have a house No, everybody gets a house in general, but the one who prays 12 Records, the one who builds domestic there is a special edition there is a luxury edition if you like for the one who does that. So these will be the magnificent palaces and again, the term bait right we have to understand here that it applies to any type of house Okay, so we understand from this now in our

00:13:43--> 00:14:26

times in our modern Arabic, when you say bait, generally speaking, you know, you're talking about an ad, you know, just domiciled to replace the residence, but in early Arabic in the classical Arabic, it implies any type of residents. So, bait can imply a magnificent palace, and it can also imply just a mud hut. So when we are being told whoever does this allow will give him a bait. We should translate this now as a low will grant for him a magnificent palace because that's the whole point here that this is a higher level of what is promised to the other people. And in fact even Khadija on the low on her, she was promised a special house by Allah subhana wa Tada. It's a famous Hadith

00:14:26--> 00:14:29

and so I body and we were I've gone over this in this era many times.

00:14:31--> 00:14:59

That our Prophet Sall Allahu Allah who was selling was in Makkah in the house of Khadija. And Khadija had gone out on an errand, and Judy had come into the house. And Judy was talking with the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and gibreel said to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that all your rasulillah this is Khadija coming. Khadija was not in the house, he was outside the house, and God informed the Prophet

00:15:00--> 00:15:54

The love of Allah who was set up that Khadija is coming and she has some food and something to dip the food and you know some type of you know sauce to so bread and food you know to do to to eat for you. When she comes, then give her the Salaam of her Lord and give her my Salam as well. gibreel was sent down in order to give the salams of Allah subhanho wa Taala and of Jubilee to Khadija and Jubilee then said what they should have sorry, Jubilee had said to the Profit System, we should have a tinfoil agenda team and also been la Sahaba fee. He was not sober, well, but should have the bait infill agenda, give her glad tidings of a special house in gender that is going to be made out of

00:15:54--> 00:16:39

pearls plus sub is a pearl. Some say that has been shallowed made empty in the middle. So the outer layer is going to be pearl. So give her glad tidings of a house made out of a sub la Sahabi whether or not sub there's not going to be any noise nor any tiredness, you see, how do you have the LA Juana she lived in a very congested part of Makkah. And there was a lot of the marketplace was not too far off from there. And so there was a lot of din and shouting and noise and you know that there was just a very the chaos of the city. You could hear it from the house of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the house of Khadija. And so Judy came down and said to her, that meaning through

00:16:39--> 00:17:22

the prophet system that Allah has sent to me to give Salaam to Khadija and Allah has sent me to give her glad tidings that her next house in general is going to be made out of pearls. And that house will not have any sahab whether or not Saab, and sahab here, as I said, it means dinner or noise. And nosode means tiredness, because our mother had the job, the loved one ha, she would be extremely tired, she would do a lot of work, you know, she was the mother, you know, of children of the prophets of the law of wine, he was send them and she would service the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam as well. And she was a business lady. So she had a very, very difficult, you know, time and

00:17:22--> 00:18:04

jabril came and said, it's only for a period of time, and inshallah, the future that awaits you, you will have a magnificent palace made out of pearls and that palace, you're not going to have the hustle and bustle, the dinner and the noise, it's going to be peaceful and relaxing. And you will not have to get tired, there is no doing chores in general. You don't have to do anything in general. And so this is the glad tidings that God gave to Khadija all the Allahu taala. And as well we are told of specific good deeds that brings about houses in general. That and sometimes these houses are named in fact the default is that the houses are names. For example, in Sunita Timothy,

00:18:04--> 00:18:47

the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that unnecessary moon debate in fear about the genetti elemental Nakamura, our encounter more hepco that I guarantee a house in the outskirts of Genoa, meaning the periphery regions of China, for whoever gives up arguing, even if he isn't the correct just give up arguing just give it up for the sake of Allah. Sometimes, you know, you're right. Sometimes the other person makes a fool of himself or herself. And you can easily you know, say something that will destroy the argument of the other person. But you know, what is going to cause tension, and it's going to cause problems, it's going to break the ties. So be the better of the

00:18:47--> 00:19:34

two, just be quiet, be quiet and let it go and let the friendship remain. Our Profit System said whoever does that gives up arguing, even if he's correct. I guarantee him a house in the peripheries of gender. And then he said and I guarantee a house in the center of gender well sorted agenda for whoever gives up lying, even if he is joking. Now, again, by by lying and joking here we mean like a type of practical joke, let's say where you know, you say something and you know, everybody, for a minute or two, everybody thinks something and then you all laugh and everybody realizes that. Oh, it was you know, you were just making a prank or a joke or something. Now again, technically, that is

00:19:34--> 00:19:49

not sinful, per se. It's not constituting a lie. To tell a joke is not to lie. Nonetheless, you know, the prophet system is offering you something higher. He is saying that I guarantee a house in the central part of

00:19:50--> 00:19:59

forever gives up lying saying anything that is untrue, even if they're joking. And then he said, and I guarantee a house fee are lol Joe

00:20:00--> 00:20:40

The highest level of agenda for whoever's conduct and manners are the best for whoever's conduct and manners are the best. You want to have the highest place in agenda, perfect your manners, and you will get there. And that means control your anger, that means display dignity in the face of foolishness. That means your tongue should not become vulgar. That means your sarcasm needs to be cut back. That means you treat people with dignity, and you give them more that they deserve, and you accept from them less than you deserve. That is the essence of being well mannered. And our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, I guarantee a house in the highest levels of gender, for

00:20:40--> 00:21:23

those whose manners are perfect May Allah make us amongst those people. And we also learn that houses are named. And we know this from a beautiful Hadith in the Muslim environment, that our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, that when a child dies, have one of the servants of Allah, Allah will ask the angels that have you taken the life of this child? And they say, yes. And Allah will say, Have you taken this child who used to be the joy of his art the apple of his eye? He they will say, yes, Allah will say What did my servants say? And the angels will say, he said, in the law, he were in a way he wrote your own. In other words, he was patient, and he accepted the other

00:21:23--> 00:22:06

of Allah Subhana, Allah to Allah. So Allah will say, build a special house for my servant, here's the point of that house, right? Build a special house for my servant and call it they tool handy. Now we have a name based tool handy. So there are certain actions and deeds when you do them, the reward will be a house, we already mentioned three of them. And this is the fourth one here that if you do something, you get a house right now, as I said, everybody gets a house. But these deeds and these you know, a Heidi they mentioned a higher category of house. And from this we also learn that houses are going to be named because there's something called Bay to Hamdi Bay to lm D, which means

00:22:06--> 00:22:47

that is going to be the house of praise. Why is it called the house of praise? Because the man praised Allah in response to a calamity, he displayed complete dignity and acceptance and the rainbow at the other of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And so whoever displays that it's such a tragedy, that he's really demonstrating that he believes that a law is the one in charge, and that nothing happens without the other of a law and he accepts the order of a lot, that person what is going to be the response, Allah shall build a special house. And this also shows us goes back to an earlier point that I said at the very beginning of when we started this series about Jenna, that Jenna is

00:22:47--> 00:23:41

active construction, okay, Jenna is active construction, the meaning of active construction here is that plots might be empty. So this man's plot, it was empty, there was no palace built, and Alon knew what would happen. So the M plot is empty, when the man reacts in the manner that he should a law then says constructed now Subhanallah and this is, as I explained, you know many lessons ago, this is an incentive for us, we have to realize, dear Muslims, this is no joke. What we are doing right now, is affecting our plot over there. Our actions right here and now are causally linked directly linked to the houses and the Jannat and the unharmed and the blessings everything that we

00:23:41--> 00:24:16

do here it is being actively constructed over there as a as a reward for what we are doing. And this incentivizes us and makes us very eager to make sure that we do things properly to get those blessings from Allah subhanahu wa Tada. So we talked about the issue of booths and the term costs as well as used in a number of our heads as well palaces, and there's one term that is is specially used in the Koran. And that is the term of worth a horrible fat off and horrified.

00:24:18--> 00:24:59

Now if you remember from my last lesson, a week ago, I had mentioned that there are multiple levels of gender and that primarily there are many many many levels of gender. But primarily there are two distinct categories and I mentioned this in my last lesson I gave the evidences for them and their maturity the Walker was how will you meet us How was she mad and the Sabbath upon Okay, how will you meet and us How will she man are the people how would you mean are the people of gender good and they got in was how Oshima, the people of jahannam and then the sabya own the elite group of Jenna, okay. And Allah says there's going to be small amounts of people you know, for from the later

00:24:59--> 00:25:00

generations

00:25:00--> 00:25:37

In that elite group, and a lot more people will be in the average group of gender. And I gave the analogy of, you know, business class economy class, you're in the plane, you're getting there, but there is a VIP section, there is a category Now, what is that category called? Well, Allah azza wa jal uses the term hoerauf. To indicate their houses. Allah uses the term total fat as well, which is a portal. Another type of flow, there's two types of plural. Now, by the way, so those of you that speak Arabic, you will get confused that the term horrify in our modern Arabic It means a room.

00:25:38--> 00:25:48

One room is called a waterfall. But in classical Arabic, waterfall did not necessarily mean one room. And it could mean

00:25:49--> 00:26:40

we call it an English suite, let's say right, it could mean a special residence. It could mean a complex chambers, if you like. This is another term for you know, it's like an entire complex is something you can call in classical Arabic. So Allah azza wa jal mentioned the term hoerauf or hora thoughts, and this term occurs many times in the Quran. And in fact, our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said in the famous editor inside Bahati, he said, the people of Jenna will see the people of the whole off, like you are seeing the stars. Now, this is a very profound Hadith, because the Prophet salallahu alaihe salam distinguished between two categories, the people of gender, the

00:26:40--> 00:27:14

average beard, the person who got in humble leather in no problem, no complaints, okay, and by the way, they will see the horror of up there, they will know that there are a higher level of gender, but because in general, there's no jealousy. Because in gender, there's no regrets. They will not feel any sense of regret or jealousy that's gone now. They will not feel it. They're gonna feel okay, fine. That's theirs. We're here. 100 and no problem. But again, the question is not how they're going to feel, then the question is, how do you feel right now?

00:27:16--> 00:27:19

Do you want to spend all of eternity

00:27:20--> 00:27:56

in the average place of agenda? Or do you want to aim for the higher category? That's the question I need to ask. And hamdulillah if we get in Hamdulillah, no complaints. But right now we have the opportunity right now, we have the opportunity to aim higher. I mean, let me put it to you this way, right? Suppose you're taking a flight across, you know, the end of the world and whatnot, you know, here all the way to I don't know, Australia Mashallah debacle, a beautiful land, I think, yes, you guys, but hey, just to get to you guys takes an entire day of our schedule on the way back as well, you know, you can say we make it up when we cross over the dateline, but still, it's 24 hours, you

00:27:56--> 00:28:34

know, more actually from house to house. 26 hours vandalia Okay, now imagine, and I've done this multiple times, I've done this in economy class squeezed in the middle of an entire seat and at hamdulillah. Allah bless me one time to do it, you know, business class as well. Subhan Allah, what the difference between the two, right? Can you imagine if somebody said, Hey, you know, you have the ticket booked, and you can get business class, all you need to do is just do something a little bit more. Okay, a little bit more, would you not want to do that little bit more just to get, you know, a 15 hour flight in business versus, you know, economy, imagine this isn't a 15 hour flight, this is

00:28:34--> 00:29:18

the rest of eternity. This is literally forever and ever and ever. And so we are being told there's going to be a tabula hoerauf. And we're being told the people of Jannah will look up to the people of the hoerauf, the VIP suites, the way you look up to the stars, this indicates two things. Number one, the high level and the distinction that they have a number two, that their houses are going to be shining, glimmering, you will see like the stars, you will see their palaces, just glimmering up there, that's where they are, right? That's how large and beautiful their houses will be that they're going to be glimmering, like the stars and the people of gender will recognize Oh, those are

00:29:18--> 00:29:56

the people that will hold off and the people have a lot of what do you think they're going to be in? So the question arises, how then does one get to that level of status? How does one get to the vvip Deluxe, you know, complex is not just a you know, a one room No, it is going to be entire palaces that are called a little waterfall that we can translate them as basically entire palaces upon palaces. So Allah mentions in the Quran, the term hold off many times. And if you look at these verses, again, their theme is very straightforward. In Surah sabba, verse 47,

00:29:57--> 00:29:59

Allah subhana wa tada says that

00:30:00--> 00:30:54

lakhiani Latina Takara Bahama la hora, homophobia hora from Albania tune that those who have Taqwa of their Lord. One condition is met. Those who have Taqwa of your Lord. Lakin la de la Takara bomb. What shall be their response? They reward lenham hora foun. menfolk, they have often been eaten, they're gonna have off and on top of that other hoerauf that are constructed. In other words, they're being told these worauf are not imaginary. They're not illusory, they are melbournian solid constructions, and they have been made specifically for them, architectural design, and waterfall merfolk they have or have means, palaces on top of which there are other palaces, ie, multiple

00:30:54--> 00:31:37

layers, a massive complex, you know, the kings of this world if you go and see their their palaces and then buildings and whatnot, you will find not just one palace, but palaces within palaces and entire skyscrapers within their complexes. And Allah is saying, those that get to that level, we shall have hoerauf and on top of this other hoerauf and all of it will be perfectly constructed. And Eliza just has word Allah He likes you for loving me, I this is the promise of Allah and Allah never fails in his promise. And in another verse, Allah subhana wa tada says, so in this verse, we are told that taqwa of Allah will get us that a lot of taqwa means to be conscious of Allah to monitor

00:31:37--> 00:32:26

what we are doing to construct a barrier and a wall between us and between the punishment of Allah subhanahu wa Tada. And in another verse, Allah azza wa jal says womma and widecombe Allah Allah Jochem build it to Korea bukem Indiana zoo, neither your wealth nor your children will bring you closer to us in an Amana war. Amina salejaw, how do you want to come closer to us for those who believe and do good deeds, for lack of a better Phoebe mameluke wound feel horrified at me known for those people, they shall have a double reward for all that they have done. And they shall secure a safe place in the huruf. And they shall live there forever. So in this verse, Allah says, no matter

00:32:26--> 00:33:04

how much money you have, is not going to get you to hold off. No matter how much children or possessions you have, that's not going to earn you the horror of what will earn you the horror of 11am. I know what I need a solid, believing in a law and doing good deeds, extra deeds, that's what's gonna get the word off. And this is a beautiful idea, because it shows us to your Muslims. And there is a headache to this regard. It's slightly weak, but it's it's mentioned in our traditions and our books that the Prophet system described the hoerauf. And one of the Sahaba said O Messenger of Allah, that is only four then a beam that's not going to be for us and the prophecies

00:33:04--> 00:33:45

and said no, indeed, it is going to be for those who believed, and they followed up that belief in their, you know, deeds, it is going to be for those. It's not just for the MBR it's not just for the Russell, it is for the righteous and pious of the oma as well. So the hoerauf is accessible to me and you dear Muslims, it is accessible. If you want it, you have to strive for it. If you wanted, you have to change your lifestyle. If you want it, you have to give up your sins and start doing those extra good deeds to show that you want that order of 11am and what I mean. So in this verse, Allah mentions Eman And I'm going to cite it in the other words Allah mentions taqwa now what else

00:33:45--> 00:34:00

is mentioned in sort of the Zoomer Allah subhanho wa Taala mentions that already mentioned this or sorry that the water from what I've already mentioned is that so turquoise mentioned I'm a pseudo for con so I already mentioned through the zoom up

00:34:02--> 00:34:45

I guess I messed up then in the references Excuse me. So instead of the Zoomer it was lacking, lacking delineate Sakuraba home more often Okay, what often that is to the Zoomer. I had mentioned sort of cyber, that's a mistake. So the cyber is warmer and wailuku. While our logic military to Colorado and Arizona, so just a minor error of scription. The Verses are recited properly, but I messed up the descriptions through the Sabbath, verse 47, and spirit Azuma, verse 20. So those are the two verses look them up. A third series of verses also mentions what gets you to the hoerauf. And this series of verses is the most detailed description of the people who get to the hoerauf so

00:34:45--> 00:35:00

please look it up. We do not have time to go into each and every to see it in reverse. But it is sort of for con, verse 62, all the way to 76 circle for con verse 62 to 76

00:35:00--> 00:35:07

Six please look this up we'll go over it very quickly so that you know what it is. But please look it up that Allah subhana wa tada mentions that

00:35:08--> 00:35:54

he is the one that Who has created the night in the day alternately, so that whoever wants to reflect or whoever wants to thank Allah subhana wa Tada, meaning whoever wants to worship aligned the day and night there's an alteration here. What are you doing? Man, the servants of our human are those who walk in this earth with humility. And when the ignorant addressed them, they say peace. So we have over here humility, we have over here saying peace, and those who pass the night prostrating to their Lord and standing up in prayer. So we learn here, one of the key acts of worship to get to that highest level is salata, tahajjud. And I've said this many, many times, if you are not praying

00:35:54--> 00:36:37

to God, you are not eager to get the VIP status in the eyes of Allah so that it had you is the key, it is the key, the primary key that unlocks the door to that higher level because everything else falls into place. Once you have selected tahajjud so make sure if you want to that hold off that you wake up in the middle of the night and you pray a tracker to Allah subhanho wa Taala finish it off with water. And so Allah azza wa jal mentions over here, that those who spend the night you'll be tuned, they're spending portions of the night soldier then Wakayama, going up and down in the eyes of Allah Subhana, WA Tada. And those who make dua to Allah, or have been asked if either by jahannam

00:36:38--> 00:37:17

turn away from us, O Allah, the suffering of jahannam, we don't want to go there. It is a miserable abode and an evil destination. In other words, they are scared of jahannam. So to be scared of jahannam in sha Allah, Allah guarantees you that you're going to be going to Gen. And that Allah says that when they spend, there are neither wasteful nurse, nor are they stingy, but rather they have a middle course. Right. They are not wasteful. They don't have a Seraph. And they're also not stingy. They're in the middle over here. Notice your brothers and sisters, none of these verses says that the person of the War of has to be dirt poor, no, you can be poor and go to the war of you can

00:37:17--> 00:37:53

also be rich and go to the horror of Al Hamdulillah Al Hamdulillah, that Allah did not say that you have to give up everything to get to the heart of No, but Allah is saying that if you do have wealth, then you need to be wise and how you spend it, what you do. And of course, the extra generosity is there. And then Allah mentions the major sins, that the people of the world will not be doing major sins, they're not going to be doing *. They're not going to be doing murder. They're not committing to doing Zina, these are not things that will facilitate you to get to the ward off and that Allah says in case you have done a major sin, in case you know, this has happened

00:37:53--> 00:38:40

to drinking whatever Allah does damage and drinking this worse, but these are all major sins that are there. Allah says if that has happened, you still have a chance to get to the hoerauf and this is a great hope for all of us sinners. We are all sinners, every one of us, but Allah is giving us a way out in lemon taba. armineh Well, Amina Ramadan saleha, whoever sincerely repents, and he believes in a lot of fresh and renews that Mr. And he does lots of good deeds. That person a lot will substitute the sin and give him a good in place of the sin. This is a very, very big boost of optimism. Dear sinner, dear person who hasn't prayed for a few years or longer than this dear person

00:38:40--> 00:39:26

who has taken drugs who has snorted these evil substances who has been in the company of evil people who has crossed the Red Line when it comes to gender interactions. Dear person who has committed sins and all of us are sinners. You have the opportunity in shallow to either to get to the VIP Suites have been very open. It's explicit in them and what armineh while I'm in Ramadan, sila Han three conditions. If you've done the major sins, you still have the opportunity if you repent and you renew your Eman in a large zoa gel and you start doing good deeds. When you do this, not only will your previous sins be forgiven, in fact, you might even be rewarded that Allah will substitute

00:39:26--> 00:39:59

the past life of evil with good because you didn't do good but you did such good in your later life that from now that the previous ones will be substituted. And then Allah subhana wa tada says that and also the people of the Lord Have they do not bear false testimony or witness they speak the truth. And when they pass by that which is indecent or that which is a waste of time, they pass by with dignity. They don't get involved in vulgar shouting or whatnot. They pass by with dignity and the people of the world as well are those who when they are reminded

00:40:00--> 00:40:38

did have the revelations of a lot of the verses of the Koran when they're reminded of right and wrong? They listen, and they are not deaf and blind. In other words, there are some people you know, when you go and tell them something, they say, oh, why are you coming to me Mind your own business, but the people of Iman, even if they are already doing good, and you say, Okay, why don't you add this essential example of it? Or you point out a very minor issue that they might be doing, instead of getting angry at you they say, you know, you're right. jazak Allah, may Allah reward you this what Allah is saying that either aduki Ruby, it will be him when they are reminded of the blessings

00:40:38--> 00:41:17

of Allah and the verses, you know, of Allah subhanho wa Taala. When they're reminded of halal and haram, when they're reminded of any Islamic lecture, they don't become deaf and blind. No, they're interested, they are affected by the verses in the Koran. And so Allah subhanho wa Taala says, this is also one of the signs of the people of the hoerauf. And then Allah says, and those who make dua to Allah, and I've been a Haeberlin I mean as wodgina with reality now kurata image and an image of a mama, this is one of the dramas that the people of the world make that Oh, Allah, give us in our spouses, and in our children, that which will comfort us we want righteous spouses and children or

00:41:17--> 00:42:01

law, and we want to be role models for the rest of the righteous. We want to be the Imams of the McDuck in. In other words, what does it mean here? It means that we want the people of taqwa to look to us as also role models. Our taqwa shouldn't just be average. We want to be the leaders of taqwa not for the sake of ego, but for the sake of impact for the sake of bringing about the maximum level of impact. And so they asked Allah subhana wa Taala to be with Adam, what's up Dana imama. Allah azza wa jal says, After this long list and please brothers and sisters go back sort of for con read verses 16 onwards all the way to the end of this this is the last page page and a half of the sudo

00:42:01--> 00:42:44

su total for on the last page and a half that Allah says Allah ecology zona Warfighter Mr. Saba, this is the key here. Allah describes around you know, 13 characteristics, right? Then Allah says, These people who match up with these characteristics would equal us zonal hora, Fattah Bhima sabado allows one more sabar, they will be rewarded with the glorified the VIP suites because of their patience. And by patience here, it means the continuity of these actions throughout their lives. They're constantly doing these things over and over again. Because again, dear brothers and sisters, it's not a one off. You don't just give Zakat and that's it. You don't just fast and that's it, you

00:42:44--> 00:43:24

fast and then you fast again and you pay 200 and you pray and you pray and you pray you and you pray every single night until you meet your Lord. That is what you call solver. So Allah says, we like a huge Arizona horror fighter be masaharu these are the people they will get the horror for, because of their continuous the continuity their patience that they have, that they have done, while you look out if he had to he yet and was Salama, and they shall be greeted in the hoerauf with the greetings of peace and with greetings of Tahiti attend was Adama. So we learn and this is all over agenda. But the horrify especially there's going to be special Greetings, there's going to be angels

00:43:24--> 00:43:43

that are they're assigned and allocated to the people of the world. And they'll be welcoming the people as they enter the heart of analyzer just says Holly Dena fee her Hassoun at Mr. Quran, woman comma, they shall be in the water forever and ever and ever. What an excellent residence and what a beautiful destination. So

00:43:44--> 00:44:37

this is the most detailed description in the entire Koran of how to get to the VIP section of genda make sure you read it. So total for con at the end. Now we also learned another very interesting thing about the world. And that is Hadith is intimately the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that in general there shall be hoerauf there's going to be that VIP suites right? That your war hero Harmon Bell Tini ha, you can see the inner from the outer we're about to have a bunny and the outer from the inner. In other words, there's going to be beautiful palaces, multi level layered multi leveled, built upon each other and the one inside can see outside and the one outside can see inside

00:44:37--> 00:44:38

now.

00:44:39--> 00:44:59

We all can visualize this because we have seen structures built out of wall to wall ceiling and glass and whatnot right? But when this hadith was said, there was no such thing as see through glass right? There was no such thing. This is something that is in the history of mankind, relatively recent. You did not have

00:45:00--> 00:45:42

fortified structures that are wall to wall glass. In fact, you know, the interesting point here is that, generally speaking, this is a sign of great luxury in our times. And in fact, you know, the houses of the, you know, the the multimillionaires or whatnot, you know, like, think of those of you in America, you know, this that, in Manhattan, you have the skyscrapers, and each one is like, you know, each each house in there, the penthouse and whatnot, it's nothing but glass, right? So you can see inside and outside, and the Profit System is saying, there's going to be hold off, that you can see from outside to inside and inside to outside. And that's the reality of even the rich and the

00:45:42--> 00:46:25

elite of this dunya. It's in human nature to your brothers and sisters. It's our fitrah and this is why I keep on getting back those that make fun of gender from the non Muslims. their lifestyles are enough of refutation, to show that in reality, they're not really making fun of anything but their own humanity, right. Every human being would love these types of descriptions and these types of realities. So why there is nothing to be ashamed of in this regard. Now, one of the Sahaba said, Who is it for a messenger of a lot and our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Allah has prepared it for those who feed the hungry and speak gently and fast regularly and pray frequently at night

00:46:25--> 00:47:08

when people are asleep. So he mentioned for things that Allah has prepared the horror of the auto for their for those who feed the poor auto auto, the ones that are feeding all the time, and the one who l&l Canal. They speak softly and gently, not harsh, not vulgar, and the one who fasts regularly and the one who Celebi lady when NASUWT neon, they are praying at night when people are asleep once again, by the way, if we look at this, these descriptions, they match what the Quran is saying Eman Armando Sala taqwa the verses of surah Furqan, which explicitly mentioned the 100. Once again, we have the order of here explicitly linked with salata, tahajjud and more than 200, being generous to

00:47:08--> 00:47:50

the hungry and feeding the poor and being good in your manners also mentioned in the Hadith here, we haven't mentioned here as well. So here we have a beautiful description that the horror of are built of see through crystals right now, somebody will say Hold on a sec, how is their privacy? Where's the privacy? And the responses Subhanallah even in New York with those that are Manhattan skyline, right? That they're in the 75th floor, right? And they're looking at, you know, a central park and they on the way Is anybody looking at them? Can anybody look at them, they are in the middle of this world. There is no problem of privacy. When you are in your kingdom dear brothers and sisters, there

00:47:50--> 00:48:35

is nobody there, you and your person, your family, your companion, there's nobody there you are in privacy anyway. So yes, you can see inside and outside. And there is no fear of a stranger, this is your domain, your kingdom, nobody will come even if the servants until you call them and that's the reality of gender. And so, there is no fear of somebody looking in there is ultimate privacy even as the houses are built of fortified crystals, right What are from bubbly yet and bubbly, it is fortified, it is made solid. And in this we learned that you can see in and out and by the way, this also explains the shallow data that they're going to be sparkling like the stars because remember

00:48:35--> 00:49:18

the people of Jenna, the average gender, they will look up and they will see the flickering of the star. That is the horror of up there. That is the magnificent palace that is so large that it actually flickers the glimmer is coming to the people down there in the regular agenda, because it's made out of beautiful crystal. So, these hoerauf are massive palaces, multi layered palaces, for above the regular iboats of gender and because of their brightness, because of their beauty, they will flicker off like the stars that we see in this world and they will be constructed of sheer glass and crystals beyond our imagination, yet there is no cause for complaint of any privacy

00:49:18--> 00:49:59

because each and every one of us will have our entire kingdom to ourselves and we will be in complete privacy. Now this is the wore off and we ask Allah to be of the people of the world. Now we talked about the boot, we talked about the soul, we talked about the hoerauf one aspect is left for today's lecture. And that is the the the the arm or the the tense because in addition to the houses and in addition to the palaces and the water for the people of the world, not everybody has the horror of By the way, the horror of is the elite we said everybody has boot everybody has Masonic and everybody has poor soul. But the war off is the elite. Whoever gets that

00:50:00--> 00:50:49

will get all the rest. All of them will also have something called cm, what is cm, cm or tense, cm are tense. And remember, everybody has a mini kingdom, right? So you have your primary residence, you might have other residences as well. And you will have tents as well pavilions is a better way to translate this, and these pavilions or tents will be in the equivalent of your backyard somewhere in your kingdom placed strategically in front of the rivers flowing with the utmost scenery will be there and there is an indication it's nothing explicit. But there is an indication a hint that the families of this world the the the the husbands and wives and the children, whatnot, they will be in

00:50:49--> 00:51:26

the pursuer and the boot and the hoerauf. And the companions, the hurun in will be in the themes and is also an indication again this is not explicit that there might be different types of OEM. So there might be tents that are meant for hosting guests and people are going to be coming with decking in you know Allah sudomotor cabin in facing one another and talking there might be tents that are meant for entertaining guests. We're going to talk about entertaining guests and visitation, inshallah, inshallah inshallah, in our next lecture, and they might be tense as well for the families to go out and have a picnic. Again, this is not explicit, but there seems to be

00:51:26--> 00:52:12

indications that there are multiple tents in every person's kingdom, I'm calling it a backyard, it is reality a kingdom and each one is used for different purposes. And it says in the hill LCM, that these 3am or these tents, later on, hold off, you will have to soar they are not the same as the whole of and they're not the same as the palaces. In fact, if no claim says it will be constructed outside of their masakan outside of their houses, and it will be in beautiful scenery and is going to be at the banks of the river. So, we will all inshallah Tada, we will want to be on the people agenda, we will all have our primary houses, maybe multiple houses, and then we will also have these

00:52:12--> 00:52:21

three will also have multiple pavilions and tents. And of course, Allah mentions multiple times, primarily in the context of the children.

00:52:22--> 00:53:16

And as I said, this indicates that the children are in will be not living in the masakan they will be in the CM hurun. moko Suraj tune Phil am inserta remember 72 that who were on that are going to be sequestered MK Suraj they have a special place of residence, Phil Sam, and our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that there will be in Jenna a Haman a tent that is made out of carved pearl beratan mucho wafaa, a pearl that has been carved, and it will be as long as 30 miles. In one version, it says that pulu ha. Farah surah. Millan what I'll do hostage to the million that the Hadith says that it's to have a summer that its height is going to be 30 miles high, and its width

00:53:16--> 00:54:04

is going to be 60 miles. In other words, imagine a a spherical cylinder or semi circular if you like Pearl, as far as you can imagine 30 miles high and 60 miles again, these are not you don't have to measure it. But imagine something that is that I write and 60 miles you know in length, and that's going to be 1pm one 10th and our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said she could Luiza we attend min her little mini al in every corner, there's going to be families that they will not see each other everybody, every person will have sections of that tm sections will be there sequestered within that area, and every person will have privacy in every section. And of course, every 10th is

00:54:04--> 00:54:33

one person is not like there is no sharing anything in gender. This is gender. And our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that the believer will be able to and again, this is something that we're going to come to maybe next lesson or sometime but you don't have to get tired walking around in gender, that you will be able to go from place to place without getting tired, you will go where you need to go. And there are even reports that there might be animals there that are there for

00:54:34--> 00:55:00

riding and whatnot. There are references again, I talked about the animals agenda in a previous lecture, and that if somebody wants a horse, there is a question about, well, what if you don't want a horse you just want to go from place to place. Reality is these technical details are not mentioned. But again, this is Jenna. You're never gonna get tired you have all the time in the world, wherever you are, will be a point of enjoyment. So the point is to get there and these are some of

00:55:00--> 00:55:39

The blessings that are described to be engender. So our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that the P the person of gender will have a tent, a pavilion that is going to be made out of a carved pearl translucent material, and it is going to be a semi circle, right? That it is an oval shaped, his height is this much its width is that much. And in every corner, there will be different entertainment. If you want to entertain guests, you want to take your family and sit at the beach who don't are in they're all in different places. And our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that lie or Harun that if you're in one section, the other section will not see that is a privacy

00:55:39--> 00:56:22

over there. Now all of this will be for every single person that they will have at least one tent along with their houses and residences as well. And of course, the righteous will have more than one. And that's of course, all depending upon actions that we do. So to conclude today's lecture, what are some of the ways that we can better our house? What are some of the things that are mentioned in the sooner that can make our house better? Well, of the things that are mentioned is to be charitable towards massage, building massage and financing, massage it whoever builds a house alone built a house of the things that are mentioned is to pray 12 regard every single day above and

00:56:22--> 00:57:05

beyond the five daily sarwat dear Muslims, don't you want a special house Don't you want to have a house that is you know, constructed by Allah subhanho wa Taala in a way better than the average houses, all that needs to be done 12 Records a day and by the way, calculated out, it will not take you more than 12 minutes really it will not take you more than 15 minutes at max you just pray these 12 record, you know one one record can be done. I'm saying it can be done in one minute or less even you know, so if you were just to spend 15 Let's be inshallah generous and say, you know, 20 minutes a day, 20 minutes a day. That's it, you are guaranteed to have a house that is better than average.

00:57:05--> 00:57:38

This is we're still talking about the place we're not trying to ward off the order of requires more than these 12 cards. This is we're just talking about what are the things mentioned to better your house in general. So we said number one, be generous to the massage. Number two, pray 12 cards. Number three, read the Koran and especially suited class. As mentioned, there is a hadith that our Profit System says that whoever recites called who Allahu Ahad 10 times that Allah azza wa jal will build a palace for him in Jenin Allah will build a palace for him in Jenna

00:57:39--> 00:58:22

said O Messenger of Allah, if that is the case, I will do this a lot. And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Allah who accelero Audioboo, Allah can give you much more and he is pure than this. So reciting the Quran and especially reciting airfloss number four, saying the kalama saying the kalama, a hadith and Durrani and others that are Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Whoever says when he enters the supermarket the souk La ilaha illallah wa the hula sharika the whole column, how do you meet who are how you layer material Hi, well who are the Christian Kadir whoever says this, a lower right for him 1000 good deeds and erased from him 1000 evil deeds and

00:58:22--> 00:59:09

raise him up 1000 ranks and build for him a house in general, we can say that extra Vicar and especially the Kalima, when you say it frequently, it will help build that house in general. We already mentioned other three things that the profitsystem said giving up arguing and giving up lying and having good manners. So all of these things are explicitly linked to building a better house in general. And of course, if you want to have not just a better house, but the VIP suites, the hoerauf that requires eemaan and ammo to solid and taqwa and that is demonstrated in a longer list in the end of pseudo forgone May Allah Subhana Allah grant us to be of the people of the

00:59:09--> 00:59:23

hoerauf May Allah subhanho wa Taala make us of those who enter the highest levels of gender be ready to serve and what are that and inshallah we will continue our series B in the late next week until then set out Why do you want to lie or barakato
