While early he was happy he was selling to Sleeman Kathira

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

Allahumma salli wa sallam one Mr. Berry Carla and Abby, you know,

00:00:07 --> 00:00:10

have you been hammered in Villa welline? Or suddenly we're selling

00:00:10 --> 00:00:15

one mo barik ala Nabina Wahhabi Habibi now Mohammed infill?

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

ATHLEAN are suddenly we're selling one or more Berek Allenby you

00:00:19 --> 00:00:22

know, Habib Muhammad infil Malay, Allah, Allah Yomi Deen

00:00:25 --> 00:00:29

there is this concept in Islam

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

that we all have to be very aware of.

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

And which is

00:00:36 --> 00:00:44

this idea of focusing, focusing when it comes to our children,

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

emphasizing the importance of knowing who Allah Allah subhanaw

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

taala is

00:00:51 --> 00:00:52

you don't when you look at the Quran

00:00:55 --> 00:01:02

every around 80% from the entire Quran is about Allah's names and

00:01:02 --> 00:01:08

attributes. The Stories of the Prophets, reminders that we can

00:01:08 --> 00:01:14

glean from these stories. Halal and Haram issues in the Quran are

00:01:14 --> 00:01:15

very little by the way.

00:01:17 --> 00:01:18

It's not more than 20%

00:01:20 --> 00:01:21

In fact, it's way less than that.

00:01:22 --> 00:01:25

So when we raise our children,

00:01:27 --> 00:01:28

we have to acknowledge that

00:01:29 --> 00:01:34

we have to emphasize and instill in instill this love of Allah

00:01:34 --> 00:01:39

subhanaw taala within our children's hearts before diving

00:01:39 --> 00:01:40

into halal and haram.

00:01:42 --> 00:01:46

We don't want our children to perceive the religion as just

00:01:46 --> 00:01:50

commands. This is halal. This is haram. This is halal. This is

00:01:50 --> 00:01:54

haram in a daily basis. This is all what they get when it comes to

00:01:54 --> 00:01:57

the religion who comes to Islam. It's about halal and haram.

00:01:58 --> 00:02:02

So what about the core of our religion, Prophet Muhammad

00:02:02 --> 00:02:07

Sallallahu Sallam in Mecca and Medina but in Makkah more

00:02:07 --> 00:02:12

importantly in Mecca, because this is the first years that Islam is

00:02:12 --> 00:02:15

being exposed to the people that did not know anything about Islam.

00:02:16 --> 00:02:20

And you will find Prophet Muhammad Salah Salem always speaking about

00:02:20 --> 00:02:24

who Allah subhanaw taala is, in fact even the mucky and sewers,

00:02:24 --> 00:02:28

the source, the source that will reveal the Mecca, it's all about

00:02:28 --> 00:02:35

hate. It's all about Allah has names and attributes. It's all

00:02:35 --> 00:02:40

about the beauty of Allah subhanaw taala through his attributes is

00:02:40 --> 00:02:44

Mala a result. Today I want to talk about a similar result by the

00:02:44 --> 00:02:47

way, but this is just an introduction. Because when Allah

00:02:47 --> 00:02:52

had the knowledge of Allah is very important to be instilled within

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

our hearts and within our children's hearts. So very briefly

00:02:56 --> 00:03:01

when it comes to this concept of risk, I just recited so that part

00:03:01 --> 00:03:05

of sort of LM Ron and Allah subhanaw taala it says in Allah

00:03:05 --> 00:03:13

Yasuko min Yasha who divided himself, right? The Allah is the

00:03:13 --> 00:03:18

old provider and it gives you provision it gives you risk right?

00:03:19 --> 00:03:22

And I'll leave that the Taalib said beautiful words about this

00:03:22 --> 00:03:24

concept of risk. He said

00:03:26 --> 00:03:28

a risk pool now I run

00:03:30 --> 00:03:34

a risk pool now I'm risk is divided into two types.

00:03:35 --> 00:03:41

00:04:02 --> 00:04:03

I'm going to translate it I promise.

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

So he said there are two types of risks. The first type of risk is

00:04:09 --> 00:04:15

the one who use try for you wake up in the morning, you go to work

00:04:15 --> 00:04:21

you put all of your efforts you pursue to seek that risk. So Allah

00:04:21 --> 00:04:24

has promised is that he will give you that risk that you're you're

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

pursuing no matter what you will get it. We all know that. This is

00:04:29 --> 00:04:32

a simple concept of risk.

00:04:33 --> 00:04:40

But he said the second type of risk is that the risk that will

00:04:40 --> 00:04:41

actually search for you,

00:04:43 --> 00:04:45

they will find you this risk will find you

00:04:46 --> 00:04:51

without you even thinking about it. This risk is coming to you

00:04:51 --> 00:04:53

without you even thinking about it.

00:04:54 --> 00:04:59

So it would not be tolerated said the first risk is justice and the

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

second risk

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

is a fever from Allah subhanaw taala. Now let's put this into

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

reality.

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

What about risk, risk, it comes in so many different forms.

00:05:11 --> 00:05:14

You wake up in the morning and you're feeling, you are feeling

00:05:14 --> 00:05:20

healthy. That's a risk. You have paired caring parents did not put

00:05:20 --> 00:05:24

any effort for this. But that's a risk, this risk of searching for

00:05:24 --> 00:05:29

you. You wake up under a roof and you feeling secure in your

00:05:29 --> 00:05:30

property.

00:05:31 --> 00:05:35

That's a risk. You did not put effort for it.

00:05:36 --> 00:05:42

There is no guarantee here. That's risk from Allah, you're having a

00:05:42 --> 00:05:44

righteous spouse, that's a risk.

00:05:45 --> 00:05:51

You find comfort in your house, that's a risk. You find

00:05:51 --> 00:05:54

tranquility in your house, that's a risk.

00:05:56 --> 00:06:01

You, you, you, you're you're you have this this, this beautiful

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

children, healthy children, that's a risk. That's a risk.

00:06:07 --> 00:06:11

So he said, This is all risks that came to you without you even

00:06:11 --> 00:06:15

asking about Subhan Allah. I'll share with you this quick story

00:06:15 --> 00:06:18

before I end up this hotline sha Allah Allah.

00:06:20 --> 00:06:23

One time I was I was traveling from Egypt to America.

00:06:25 --> 00:06:25

And

00:06:26 --> 00:06:28

at the airport,

00:06:29 --> 00:06:31

you know, I had issues with the airline.

00:06:32 --> 00:06:37

So the airline company told me that you cannot, you know, you

00:06:37 --> 00:06:40

cannot travel, your wife and your kids can go, but you cannot.

00:06:42 --> 00:06:45

And you have to do you know, another COVID test all of this,

00:06:45 --> 00:06:50

you know, hassle that sometimes they require. And you will have to

00:06:50 --> 00:06:53

get to get us back after two days. And the first flight will be in

00:06:53 --> 00:06:56

one week. So you have to stay in Egypt for one week.

00:06:57 --> 00:06:59

So just imagine this, um,

00:07:00 --> 00:07:06

I am at the airport. My wife and my kids are leaving without me.

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

And I have to be stuck in Egypt for a week. I have newborn babies,

00:07:12 --> 00:07:14

it's very hard on my wife to take care of them.

00:07:16 --> 00:07:17

So it's very upset.

00:07:18 --> 00:07:19

It's very angry.

00:07:20 --> 00:07:24

And then I called one of my students. He came and he picked me

00:07:24 --> 00:07:26

up from the airport.

00:07:27 --> 00:07:32

And then we went to get our breakfast. So we went we went to a

00:07:32 --> 00:07:38

very humble guy who sells the best beans ever food. So in this truck

00:07:38 --> 00:07:42

in this food truck in Egypt, we went and while we were eating

00:07:43 --> 00:07:47

while we were eating our breakfast, my students looked at

00:07:47 --> 00:07:51

me and said something very profound. He said Subhanallah

00:07:53 --> 00:07:54

if I asked you yesterday,

00:07:55 --> 00:08:00

if I asked you yesterday, if you're going to eat the breakfast

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

with this with this guy, you will definitely tell me there is no way

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

I have my flight tomorrow morning. I'm actually leaving Egypt, there

00:08:07 --> 00:08:13

is no way I can go to that guy. He said that is Allah's risk to this

00:08:13 --> 00:08:13

man.

00:08:14 --> 00:08:19

Allah willed for you to go through all of this, because Allah has

00:08:19 --> 00:08:26

written in the law homophone that this man will get risk from me in

00:08:26 --> 00:08:29

that day in the morning. So it happened.

00:08:30 --> 00:08:33

He said that you have no control over this.

00:08:34 --> 00:08:40

This is Allah's command, that this humble man will get risk from you

00:08:40 --> 00:08:47

before you departure from Egypt. This is written so that's risk

00:08:47 --> 00:08:52

that he did not strive for, that's risk that Allah has sent it to

00:08:52 --> 00:08:55

him. So may Allah subhanaw taala make us among those who can

00:08:55 --> 00:08:59

contemplate on his names. May Allah subhanaw taala give us more

00:08:59 --> 00:09:04

and more risk. And Barak has in our houses in our health, in our

00:09:04 --> 00:09:08

in our properties in our children. I mean me hon Allah means is that

00:09:08 --> 00:09:10

Kamala Hallo salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
