00:00:04 --> 00:00:08

steam and cafiero, am I bad? You guys to remember that, that we've

00:00:08 --> 00:00:12

been discussing for the past couple of hotrods, who still

00:00:12 --> 00:00:18

remember, Allah who made me with a weaker mineral hem me will hazard

00:00:19 --> 00:00:25

Wamena Allah RGZ while cancer women Jugni while book, women are

00:00:25 --> 00:00:30

elevated Dany akahi, religion, we said that this dua Prophet

00:00:30 --> 00:00:33

sallallahu Sallam has taught it to one of the Sahaba, who was

00:00:33 --> 00:00:37

struggling with a lot of deaths that he needed to pay off, and

00:00:37 --> 00:00:42

also with a lot of overwhelming, you know, thoughts that he was

00:00:42 --> 00:00:46

struggling with. And the Prophet told him, Listen, I'm gonna give

00:00:46 --> 00:00:53

you a diagnosis. And if you were to follow that, do it and apply,

00:00:53 --> 00:00:58

then you will be able to pay off all of your loans, and you will be

00:00:58 --> 00:01:01

able to get rid of all of those ill thoughts that you have in

00:01:01 --> 00:01:07

mind. So he first told them, seek refuge in Allah from a

00:01:09 --> 00:01:15

sadness. And we said that sadness is derived from previous past

00:01:15 --> 00:01:19

incidents, that you're calling it to your present. And then the

00:01:19 --> 00:01:25

second one, he told him and him, and we say the hand, it means that

00:01:25 --> 00:01:31

the war is that you have for the future is derived from the

00:01:31 --> 00:01:34

challenges that you're anticipating or expecting from the

00:01:34 --> 00:01:35

future.

00:01:36 --> 00:01:40

And then, we spoke about the third diagnose that the Prophet sallahu

00:01:40 --> 00:01:44

Salam has given to this man, and that was a large is the

00:01:44 --> 00:01:49

incapacity. So you want to do certain thing, but you're not able

00:01:49 --> 00:01:53

to you don't have the code or the power for it. And then we said the

00:01:53 --> 00:02:00

fifth or the fourth, diagnose was what? I'll QSL laziness, you have

00:02:00 --> 00:02:06

the capacity, but you don't have the desire to do it, right. Today,

00:02:06 --> 00:02:08

we're gonna learn one more diagnose that the Prophet

00:02:08 --> 00:02:12

sallallahu Sallam has given to this man. And that was algebra.

00:02:13 --> 00:02:18

What a joke means. What do you think? need answers, not cheese,

00:02:18 --> 00:02:23

because it actually means cheese. But it means different, different

00:02:23 --> 00:02:26

meaning cowardice, right, cowardice, what coward? This

00:02:26 --> 00:02:29

means? What do you think? Anybody?

00:02:30 --> 00:02:34

What coward this means? What is the difference between cowardice

00:02:34 --> 00:02:35

and fear?

00:02:36 --> 00:02:42

A joke Newell, how there is difference. cowardice, right? Now,

00:02:43 --> 00:02:45

cowardice is the

00:02:47 --> 00:02:50

the fear that can actually paralyze you.

00:02:52 --> 00:02:56

A fear that takes over you. Because there is a fear that all

00:02:56 --> 00:03:00

of us have. This is a human characteristic, every single one.

00:03:01 --> 00:03:06

At some point, you will experience fear, I will experience fear. It's

00:03:06 --> 00:03:12

a fact. You cannot escape from fear. But juban is a different

00:03:12 --> 00:03:17

kind of fear is a fear that we call it

00:03:18 --> 00:03:21

crib crib, cribs.

00:03:23 --> 00:03:27

crippling fear that's that's crippling fear. What does that

00:03:27 --> 00:03:33

mean? It means that in your day, you have certain decisions that

00:03:33 --> 00:03:37

you need to make certain things that you need to take care of, and

00:03:37 --> 00:03:43

then fear, you know, penetrate your heart and make you somebody

00:03:43 --> 00:03:49

who's not able to make a decision. Fear took over you.

00:03:50 --> 00:03:56

Some people in a crucial time, in very dangerous time, they need to

00:03:56 --> 00:03:59

make certain decisions. And if they don't make these decisions,

00:03:59 --> 00:04:04

they will harm themselves, or they will harm people around them. And

00:04:04 --> 00:04:09

they're not able to do so out of what out of juban they don't have

00:04:09 --> 00:04:14

that ability to do it. The Prophet sallallahu sallam was talking to

00:04:14 --> 00:04:20

me and you about that. And he was telling us listen, you need to

00:04:20 --> 00:04:24

push all of these negative thoughts out of your mind and out

00:04:24 --> 00:04:29

of your heart. Because you will never be able to be productive. If

00:04:29 --> 00:04:34

that juban is taking over. He told him you need to pay off your

00:04:34 --> 00:04:38

debts, you will never be able to do so if you're not making the

00:04:38 --> 00:04:39

right decisions.

00:04:40 --> 00:04:45

If you're not making the right choices in life out of juban then

00:04:45 --> 00:04:50

don't expect that you will be able to pay off these debts. Very,

00:04:50 --> 00:04:56

very, very profound. Think about it. Things that we need to do.

00:04:56 --> 00:05:00

We're just afraid of making certain decisions crucial

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

decisions

00:05:02 --> 00:05:06

and that's pushing us back. So the Prophet sallallahu sallam said,

00:05:06 --> 00:05:10

seek refuge from Allah subhanaw taala from juban. Second thing

00:05:11 --> 00:05:12

that has to do with juban.

00:05:14 --> 00:05:16

Or this fear that takes over you

00:05:18 --> 00:05:23

that you need to realize that Allah is the best planner.

00:05:24 --> 00:05:30

Allah is the best planner. Allah will take care of you, Allah

00:05:30 --> 00:05:36

subhanaw taala will make you if you truly believe that Allah is

00:05:36 --> 00:05:39

the best planner, you will put your trust in Him. And you will

00:05:39 --> 00:05:42

make that decision that you think deep inside the it's actually

00:05:42 --> 00:05:47

right for you and your family. But we're just afraid of this. What

00:05:47 --> 00:05:52

cool piece comes in place and makes it easier on me and you to

00:05:52 --> 00:05:53

make that decision.

00:05:55 --> 00:05:59

Listen to the last theme of Prophet Musa alayhis salam is

00:05:59 --> 00:06:03

life. It was actually very beautiful, to see that Musa

00:06:03 --> 00:06:08

alayhis salam, his followers have Joban Prophet Musa alayhis salam

00:06:08 --> 00:06:10

had health

00:06:12 --> 00:06:16

what happened when Musa alayhis salam and his followers looked

00:06:16 --> 00:06:21

behind them and see and you know, like the sea was in front of them

00:06:21 --> 00:06:26

and their back massive army, you know, chasing them. And they're

00:06:26 --> 00:06:31

few people. They're not very equipped. They don't have the same

00:06:31 --> 00:06:36

you know, arms just like that. The Pharaohs Arab army

00:06:37 --> 00:06:41

the people of Musa sent in Allah mudra Koon

00:06:42 --> 00:06:48

that's it the goddess now is this jokin or fear? That's Joban

00:06:49 --> 00:06:54

because fear took over them. The mean the that job and made them

00:06:54 --> 00:06:59

paralyzed. They don't see a way out. That's it. We can even you

00:06:59 --> 00:07:04

know, fight back. We cannot do any effort. I can get, you know, out

00:07:04 --> 00:07:08

of my bed, I can't do anything. I'm paralyzed at this point.

00:07:09 --> 00:07:14

That was juban, from the people of Prophet Musa alayhis salam,

00:07:14 --> 00:07:18

obviously Prophet Musa Salam at that moment, he was afraid, you

00:07:18 --> 00:07:24

know, the situation itself makes you afraid. And that's again, a

00:07:24 --> 00:07:27

human trait all of us who at some point will get afraid. But he

00:07:27 --> 00:07:29

wasn't Japan.

00:07:30 --> 00:07:36

He wasn't you know, that cowardice didn't take over. And that's why

00:07:36 --> 00:07:39

he said Kela that will never happen.

00:07:40 --> 00:07:45

In a Marriott visa Dean this tower Curtis came in place now and said

00:07:45 --> 00:07:49

Allah will take care of me. I Allah will show me a way out. I

00:07:49 --> 00:07:52

will put the effort I wouldn't let fear take over.

00:07:54 --> 00:07:58

Is it clear guys? Right, the difference between what l Joban.

00:07:58 --> 00:08:02

While health is very clear, right? When you feel that you are not

00:08:02 --> 00:08:06

able to make decisions know that this is coming out of cowardice.

00:08:07 --> 00:08:12

If you're worried it's a normal human trait, normally

00:08:12 --> 00:08:16

characterised human characteristic no problem. You need to work on

00:08:16 --> 00:08:19

that as Allah to give me the strength to make that decision.

00:08:20 --> 00:08:23

And Bismillah make that decision and put your trust in Allah

00:08:23 --> 00:08:27

subhana wa Tada. May Allah ask Allah subhanaw taala to give us

00:08:27 --> 00:08:30
