While early he was happy he was selling to Sleeman Kathira
Allahumma salli wa sallam one Mr. Berry Carla and Abby, you know,
have you been hammered in Villa welline? Or suddenly we're selling
one mo barik ala Nabina Wahhabi Habibi now Mohammed infill?
ATHLEAN are suddenly we're selling one or more Berek Allenby you
know, Habib Muhammad infil Malay, Allah, Allah Yomi Deen
there is this concept in Islam
that we all have to be very aware of.
And which is
this idea of focusing, focusing when it comes to our children,
emphasizing the importance of knowing who Allah Allah subhanaw
taala is
you don't when you look at the Quran
every around 80% from the entire Quran is about Allah's names and
attributes. The Stories of the Prophets, reminders that we can
glean from these stories. Halal and Haram issues in the Quran are
very little by the way.
It's not more than 20%
In fact, it's way less than that.
So when we raise our children,
we have to acknowledge that
we have to emphasize and instill in instill this love of Allah
subhanaw taala within our children's hearts before diving
into halal and haram.
We don't want our children to perceive the religion as just
commands. This is halal. This is haram. This is halal. This is
haram in a daily basis. This is all what they get when it comes to
the religion who comes to Islam. It's about halal and haram.
So what about the core of our religion, Prophet Muhammad
Sallallahu Sallam in Mecca and Medina but in Makkah more
importantly in Mecca, because this is the first years that Islam is
being exposed to the people that did not know anything about Islam.
And you will find Prophet Muhammad Salah Salem always speaking about
who Allah subhanaw taala is, in fact even the mucky and sewers,
the source, the source that will reveal the Mecca, it's all about
hate. It's all about Allah has names and attributes. It's all
about the beauty of Allah subhanaw taala through his attributes is
Mala a result. Today I want to talk about a similar result by the
way, but this is just an introduction. Because when Allah
had the knowledge of Allah is very important to be instilled within
our hearts and within our children's hearts. So very briefly
when it comes to this concept of risk, I just recited so that part
of sort of LM Ron and Allah subhanaw taala it says in Allah
Yasuko min Yasha who divided himself, right? The Allah is the
old provider and it gives you provision it gives you risk right?
And I'll leave that the Taalib said beautiful words about this
concept of risk. He said
a risk pool now I run
a risk pool now I'm risk is divided into two types.
Risk con yucky Lubuk What is cool talk LuBu
Ameresco Lendy talk LuBu selenium T Laker Illa beside what Ameresco
Alethea yet Luca fossa yet de la que wala Walla graphic file I will
add lumen Allah with any font lumen Allah beautiful words and
I'm going to translate it I promise.
So he said there are two types of risks. The first type of risk is
the one who use try for you wake up in the morning, you go to work
you put all of your efforts you pursue to seek that risk. So Allah
has promised is that he will give you that risk that you're you're
pursuing no matter what you will get it. We all know that. This is
a simple concept of risk.
But he said the second type of risk is that the risk that will
actually search for you,
they will find you this risk will find you
without you even thinking about it. This risk is coming to you
without you even thinking about it.
So it would not be tolerated said the first risk is justice and the
second risk
is a fever from Allah subhanaw taala. Now let's put this into
reality.
What about risk, risk, it comes in so many different forms.
You wake up in the morning and you're feeling, you are feeling
healthy. That's a risk. You have paired caring parents did not put
any effort for this. But that's a risk, this risk of searching for
you. You wake up under a roof and you feeling secure in your
property.
That's a risk. You did not put effort for it.
There is no guarantee here. That's risk from Allah, you're having a
righteous spouse, that's a risk.
You find comfort in your house, that's a risk. You find
tranquility in your house, that's a risk.
You, you, you, you're you're you have this this, this beautiful
children, healthy children, that's a risk. That's a risk.
So he said, This is all risks that came to you without you even
asking about Subhan Allah. I'll share with you this quick story
before I end up this hotline sha Allah Allah.
One time I was I was traveling from Egypt to America.
And
at the airport,
you know, I had issues with the airline.
So the airline company told me that you cannot, you know, you
cannot travel, your wife and your kids can go, but you cannot.
And you have to do you know, another COVID test all of this,
you know, hassle that sometimes they require. And you will have to
get to get us back after two days. And the first flight will be in
one week. So you have to stay in Egypt for one week.
So just imagine this, um,
I am at the airport. My wife and my kids are leaving without me.
And I have to be stuck in Egypt for a week. I have newborn babies,
it's very hard on my wife to take care of them.
So it's very upset.
It's very angry.
And then I called one of my students. He came and he picked me
up from the airport.
And then we went to get our breakfast. So we went we went to a
very humble guy who sells the best beans ever food. So in this truck
in this food truck in Egypt, we went and while we were eating
while we were eating our breakfast, my students looked at
me and said something very profound. He said Subhanallah
if I asked you yesterday,
if I asked you yesterday, if you're going to eat the breakfast
with this with this guy, you will definitely tell me there is no way
I have my flight tomorrow morning. I'm actually leaving Egypt, there
is no way I can go to that guy. He said that is Allah's risk to this
man.
Allah willed for you to go through all of this, because Allah has
written in the law homophone that this man will get risk from me in
that day in the morning. So it happened.
He said that you have no control over this.
This is Allah's command, that this humble man will get risk from you
before you departure from Egypt. This is written so that's risk
that he did not strive for, that's risk that Allah has sent it to
him. So may Allah subhanaw taala make us among those who can
contemplate on his names. May Allah subhanaw taala give us more
and more risk. And Barak has in our houses in our health, in our
in our properties in our children. I mean me hon Allah means is that
Kamala Hallo salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
