The concept of obtaining Islam is linked to the shadow era, where people are seen as similar to before. The shadow era is a lack of knowledge, lack of sharing, and lack of sharing of ideas. The reality of the concept is based on the Sharia and the TOA, and it is crucial to achieve goals and achieve success. The "roark of the internet" is discussed as a way to affect people, including actions like booking in Facebook and leaving one's nests.

			I was pondering over a verse in Surah Yunus where Musa alayhis salam, when his people are trapped,
and when they think that there is no hope. He has a very powerful verse here and it really it struck
me and it caused me to go down bit of a thought process. Musa said to his people when they lost all
hope, Musa said that, yeah, call me on my people In Kuntum mentum Billa he finally he took Curlew in
control Muslim in
		
00:00:29 --> 00:01:19
			all my people, if you have Iman in Allah, then put your Tawakkol in him. If you are Muslims, it's
such a powerful phrasing that your Eman and your Islam is linked to your Tawakkol. And this is said
at a time when Frauen is behind them. The Red Sea is in front of them. They think Hello acid is all
gone. They're the lowest of the low. And Musa comes and says if you have Iman, where is your token?
If you have Islam show me that token. And this caused me to think about so many other verses in the
Quran, where Allah subhana wa Taala directly links Iman in him with the concept of Tawakkol like it
is intrinsically linked you cannot have eemaan real eemaan Except that it will be manifested in
		
00:01:19 --> 00:02:00
			Tawakkol for example, the very first verses of Surah Talon found that in normal movement on
Alladhina De Luca La Jolla the crow boom way there truly are to Allah him it was added to me mana
and then how does it end? While our behavior tower karoun in normal mode me known the believers are
only those there's exclusivity here, you cannot be a believer unless these characteristics apply in
normal movement on and then Allah lists two or three things. And then he says and they put their
Tawakkol in Allah and of course it is very clear in the Quran. Why Allah He felt that our Khalil me
known for its our Khalil moto our ketone Botha dimension, if you have Eman you will put your
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:43
			Tawakkol in Allah subhana wa Taala the concept of Tawakkol there have been many hot buzz many
lectures about this. And we should always remind ourselves of this reality in the famous Hadith in
Sahih Behati, the regular dua of the Prophet sallallahu I said before going to sleep he would say
that Allahumma laka Islam to a beaker are meant to alayka were killed once again this direct
connotation. Yeah Rob I believe in you. And I submit to you and I have to according you look Eman
Islam tower could literally put together in one phrase just like what the Prophet Musa Eman, Islam
Tawakkol all put together. But why? Why is Tawakkol so important that it is directly linked to Iman
		
00:02:43 --> 00:03:26
			in Allah such that Musa is saying In Kuntum Amen to belief if you believe in Allah so rhetorically,
you know, as they believe it's a rhetorical right. They know they believe he knows they believe he
is saying if you have Eman, show me that our code? Why is it so intrinsically linked? If you look at
the Quran, the reason also becomes clear. And that is the following that the reality of Tawakkol it
stems from Iman in Allah and the methodology of Tawakkol. It stems from Eman in the Sharia of Allah.
So the healthiness of tobacco the reality of tobacco. You don't need to have a lot of knowledge of
the Quran and Sunnah. If you know who is Allah, you will have to chuckle. But how do you do TOA? You
		
00:03:26 --> 00:04:09
			need to have some knowledge of the Sharia. Right? And I'm going to get to this point, as I'm saying
the reality of Tawakkol how cool it is linked to Yvonne why and how? Because if you know who Allah
is, then automatically to what could will come from that. And that's why in the Quran in multiple
verses, Allah links the concept of Tawakkol to Him and His names and his attributes directly. If you
know who is Allah automatically you will have to work with him. So for example, Allah says in the
Quran, all who are up de la ilaha illa who are later worked, he is my Rob La Ilaha illa Allah
Tawakkol in him, notice how clear also in the other verse, what our curl Hey, hola de la jolla moot
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:54
			another name of Allah al Hey, put your Tawakkol in Al Haj the one who never dies also in the Quran.
What our color fatawa Allah Aziza Rahim, put your Tawakkol in Al Aziz Rahim. Allah the Urraca Hina
TOCOM the one who sees you and the one who sees when you're standing and praying and the one who
knows everything. So the concept of Who is Allah that Allah isn't Hey, Allah is Allah Aziz. Allah is
Rahim in Surah Tabarak Allah azza wa jal says of cool who are Rama? No, I'm an OB, what are they?
hito wa Kalina once again, the notion of Allah's names and Allah has attributes being linked to the
Tawakkol and Allah why and how? Because if you know that Allah is Allah Aziz. Allah is Allah we
		
00:04:54 --> 00:05:00
			Allah is a severe if you know that Allah azza wa jal is Rahman Al Rahim. When you recognize who
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:43
			Is Allah automatically none of them are hook has what Allah has none of them are who has the control
the knowledge, the power. So then how can your heart go and be attached to a hook when it is Allah?
Who is the ROB Allah? Who is the Illa? Allah who is the Aziz Allah? Who is the Hey, every other
being is not alive, they're going to die. What's our call Alhamdulillah de la jolla moot, how can
you put your Tawakkol in a mahalo that is going to die. What's our cause? Alhaj Allah de la jolla
moot. So when you know who is Allah, automatically, your heart will have to work on in him because
only he has the characteristics of the one whom you put your trust in. And that's why Allah azza wa
		
00:05:43 --> 00:06:19
			jal, one of His Names is L workin, which means the one you do Tawakkol L the one you do Tawakkol he
is Al working. That's one of the names of Allah Nirmal Mola, when everyone knows him, there is no
work he'll other than Allah subhanho wa taala. So as I said, a knowledge of Allah, when you
understand the names and attributes of Allah, automatically, it's like, I mean, giving you a simple
example of this dunya and of course, to Allah belongs the most perfect example. I'm not trying to
compare, but imagine that there is a I mean, just imagine a scenario where I don't know somebody's
drowning. You have a qualified swimmer. He knows how to save and you have a child, who do you think
		
00:06:19 --> 00:07:01
			is going to save this person? Who do you think's gonna jump in and save the qualified swimmer? The
Olympic gold medal, you put your, your human, not human trust, but a non Muslim trust, you get my
point? What did it matter? Either you get my point here when you understand Allah is infinite in His
podra. In his summer, in his Rama in his schoolwork in his hierarchy, Allah azza wa jal, Who is
Allah, how can your Torah could not go to him? So that is why the concept of Tawakkol is directly
linked to Iman. And if you don't have Eman, then you will not have to work coal so not having to
work coal is not just a weak Eman. To be honest. It is a lack of iman. And that's why it is so
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:41
			intrinsically linked. If you have Eman, where's your Tawakkol if you have Islam, show me your tow
vehicle. So I said the reality of Tawakkol comes from Arcada from Iman, as for the Haqiqa or ask for
the methodology of Tawakkol. This we need to know the shadow era. Why? Because it is possible
theologically if we were to not know the shadow era, it is possible still believing in Allah
unfolding understanding Allah to say okay to what cool means Allah will take care of me and I do
nothing. If somebody says this afternoon otherwise his belief in Allah is still strong, but his
knowledge of the Shetty is weak. Right. It's not affecting his Eman and Allah azza wa jal if he
		
00:07:41 --> 00:08:24
			thinks that you know what, I'm just gonna sit back and Allah will do everything that's happening to
the world. But we know from the Sharia This is not typical. Our knowledge of the Shetty Allah tells
us when we know the zero of the prophets of Allah has no when we studied the Hadith and the Sunnah,
then we realize that the methodology of Tawakkol is different than what I have just given as an
example. And that methodology is that Tawakkol has nothing to do with the outer limbs, it is only in
the heart to Work Code is not shown in your outer actions. It is only manifested in your Eman. You
do everything as if there is no Tawakkol but your heart does everything as if there's nothing but
		
00:08:24 --> 00:09:06
			our code. This is the perfection of our iman our outer body, our methodologies, how we want to get
somewhere what we do to get to our goal, it is as if there is no Kedah as as if that is all in our
hands but in our hearts are to what good is not in the action or to what good is not in the effort.
Our code is in Allah subhana wa Tada and this is understood the famous you all know the Bedouin, you
know, sort of Allah, should I leave my camel, or should I tie my camel, or should I put my Toba code
in Allah the same dichotomy, right? It's understood because it is possible it would not be against
theoretically after either. If we were taught, no, no, you should leave it and Allah will take care
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:44
			because Allah is Allah Krishna. But our Sharia has come and every prophet has shown and the entire
Quran has demonstrated and the Sierra of every Nabi and Rasul especially our Prophet salallahu
Alaihe. Salam has shown that the reality of Tawakkol does not affect our actions. And this is the
reality of Musa when he is running away from Freetown and he is taking precautions our Prophet
system in the hijab, so many things he's taking the story of the hero, you all know and yet when he
is in the hall, and when Abu Bakr says to him, they might catch us. That's when he says Allah azza
wa jal will take care of us the what cool is coming from the heart. The actions are they're hiding
		
00:09:44 --> 00:10:00
			in the cave three days the cave is logistically located right making sure the food is coming,
covering the tracks hiring, a trustworthy guide every aspect of the heartache of this world and how
it operates but then the heart is attached to Allah subhanho wa Taala this
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:43
			Since the reality of Tawakkol, it does not affect our actions. It only affects the world. And that's
what we learned in the Hadith the famous editor did MIDI, our Prophet sallallahu sallam said, if you
were to put your Tawakkol in Allah, the way that Allah deserves that you put the record in him, he
would give you your risk, like he provides the birds their risk. Then he gave the beautiful example.
They leave their nests early in the morning hungry, and they have to buckle and they come back in
the evening with their stomachs full. Our scholars have commented This is the perfect analogy. The
birds Tawakkol was demonstrated not in them sitting in their nests and thinking that grain is going
		
00:10:43 --> 00:11:23
			to fall on them. No, they leave their nests every morning. This is a biological fact. They don't
know where they're gonna get their grain from. They have no idea but they leave early in the
morning, because they need to put in the effort. They don't oversleep until 10pm or 10am or whatever
they leave early at budget as you know, that's the birds start chirping about Dawn and they're
flying around all day long looking for the risk. So they put in the effort and then at the end what
happens they come back to their nests fool this is the reality of Tawakkol we put in the effort but
our hearts are attached to Allah subhana wa Tada final point because Tawakkol is linked to Iman. So
		
00:11:23 --> 00:12:05
			when we have to work good, and when it is manifested in our culture, Allah Subhana Allah Allah loves
this. In the Allahu hibel motorworx Killeen Allah loves this because you have demonstrated to Allah
What have you demonstrated that you have Iman, when you're called is much more in when you're called
is completely resigned. There are commands you assign your heart to Allah you will leave your affair
to Allah when Allah sees that what cool in you inside of you, then Allah loves this because you have
demonstrated you have Iman and when Allah azza wa jal loves you what is going to happen? WOMAN Yeah
Tawakkol out Allah He for who has smooth who right whoever puts us there, what could and Allah Allah
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:38
			will take care of him because Allah azza wa jal loves that person. So it is a loop here when you
have Eman it will demonstrate to what called when you have to work on Allah azza wa jal will give
you what you want. So Inshallah, the more we learn about Allah as names and attributes, the more we
think and ponder about the reality of Allah azza wa jal and his smile so far and also of course,
other I didn't want to go there but to what couldn't further are intrinsically linked as well
because that's the reality of belief and a lot then it will be manifested in Allah's blessings on us
and then Allah taking care of us may Allah Subhana Allah Allah grant us Eman and philos and your
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:45
			pain and Tawakkol and may Allah subhanho wa Taala allow us to teach the fruits of our code in this
world and the next project we'll look at Santa Monica Welcome
