Salam alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatu. So I want to share something with you guys, that happened to me about 48 hours ago. So right outside my house, there's this group of bees and wasps that decided to build their nest. And somehow Subhanallah they were able to find their way into my bathroom, I walked in, and this tiny, tiny v not one of the bigger ones, it just attacked me and stung me on my bone in my thumb. Now, those of you who know me personally know how tall I am, I'm really big, the amount of pain that not just the bee, but the thing that you can barely see with your eyes, that it put me through in the past 48 hours from wheezing, swelling, I couldn't move my

00:00:42 --> 00:01:26

entire arm, the itching, I couldn't even sleep Subhanallah it really put things into perspective for me. So many times we as human beings feel that we're self sufficient, you know, everything's going for us. And we tend to forget that, you know, everything is in the hands of Allah subhanaw taala. And that we are nothing if we, as human beings who are fully functioning, right, and something this small, could make us go in a split of a second. It really makes you stop and think. And it reminds me of a beautiful Hadith about staying humble, right? And Allah subhanaw taala says, or the Hadith says, the Lagna Messiah with that the Messenger of Allah Azza wa sallam said, the one who has in his

00:01:26 --> 00:02:12

heart, the weight of an of a mustard seed the wait about mustard seed, which is very, very small of arrogance does not enter agenda. Men can if you call behemoth kala hot button manhandle liat collagen. Imagine this tiny this much of arrogance, or feeling that you're self sufficient that you don't need anybody. You forget that your true reliance is of Allah subhanaw taala you don't enter Jannah Subhan Allah many times Allah subhanaw taala sends us things like this, don't let it go by stop and ask yourself, What is Allah subhanaw taala trying to teach me, right? When you are in a position where you are in, you know, high status, or, you know, you have money or health, whatever

00:02:12 --> 00:02:50

it is, don't ever use these things right to oppress or tempt you or push you to oppress those around you. But instead, use these things to make you more humble, and be a person of service for those around you. Right? It's very, very important that we stop at everything that happens in our lives and contemplate, for me, it was a reminder that day Subhanallah for the first time in many years, something happened and I totally forgot to say my God specifically made your heart, you know, the the calls and everything and Bismillahi Liadrin mas mission are done at the summit, totally slipped my mind And subhanAllah I felt like it was a little nudge you know, like, from last Python reminding

00:02:50 --> 00:03:29

me like whatever happens, always set your priorities straight. And you know, make sure you say God, so that was for me, I pray to Allah subhanaw taala that you guys always kind of like are aware and alert to the last panel to his messages to you. And that you stay humble. And always, always, always, always keep that arrogance far away from you. You know, and remember that were so tiny, such a tiny thing, so much pain or could even make us God forbid go we lost Panatela would protect you all Europe insha Allah and take from our all our hearts, any kind of arrogance Europe, so that we may be written from the people of gender. I mean, I mean your blood I mean, Salam alaykum
