hanifa Nikita bola Hydra Hydra * Muhammad in Samba la hora de he was seldom or Cheryl Morimoto data to have a column of data in the data in the Lola wakulla de la Latin in North Dakota halen brothers and sisters, it's my pleasure to be with you here in Nashville.

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

And I want to as insha Allah as a guest, I want to leave you a gift insha Allah to Allah. And this gift is something that every single Muslim throughout the world, at least at some point, has most likely asked for this. And all of us around the world are asking for this. Now as I travel around the world, I hear this so many places. It is a very famous door that I have heard ever since accepting Islam. And the gift I want to give you today is the answer of this door. I've heard this in so many countries from so many Muslims so many places so many times. That I began to wonder why so many people are asking for something that was not coming.

00:02:13 --> 00:02:52

All of you have probably heard this door I made it it goes a little something like Allahumma anzor Islam or muslimeen or Allah Houma and so why is Islam on muslimeen Oh Allah give help. To the Muslims to Islam and Muslims are Allah give help and dignity as to Islam and the Muslims, your hammer Rafi mean? And I'm sure if I asked for a raise of hands, how many of you have heard this? Do I every hand in here would go up. And everyone would say they've made this door or they've said I mean to this door. And there's a door that has been made all over the world, by the rich Muslims by the poor Muslims by the strong Muslims by the weak Muslims by the traveling Muslims, by the parents

00:02:52 --> 00:03:22

for their children, the children's by their their children for their parents. And a few years ago, when I had the chance to be in Egypt, I was praying for Jerusalem. And the Imam began to say this door during Serato fudger. And we said I mean and then he said it again. Allahu mansarovar is Islam all Muslim in Fukushima can your hameroff remain? And again, we I mean, and he continued to say it again and again and again until everyone was crying, including the Imam.

00:03:23 --> 00:03:24

And then after the Salah.

00:03:26 --> 00:03:29

I started to think about something. I said, Yeah, Allah,

00:03:30 --> 00:04:13

we know that you are a Serbian da, you're the one who hears the door. And we know you're a law that you are the one who will respond to the law. And you have given us some maturities, that there are three groups whom you have promised to answer the door or the traveling Muslim, the traveler their door is heard and responded by you. I know travelers who make this door I travel for a living, and then other people who make this to you said that you would answer the door of the oppressed and the oppressor making this door out to you. You said you would answer the door that the parents make for their children? Well, yeah, Allah, I know, as a parent, we are making this door for our children. So

00:04:13 --> 00:04:57

what is it that we are doing that displeases you so much that you are withholding this Nasir from us and this from us? What is it that we're doing that you are so displeased with? That you're withholding from us? Or you're Allah, what is it that we are not doing that we should be doing? That you are so displeased with the year with holding this door? Because for sure, there has to be a reason for so many people to be making this door and for the answer to not come because we know that the Nasir of Allah has not been given to this um, as of yet, because it was given to the arm as a holding the arm would be a place of dignity and honor. So there has to be a reason. There has to be

00:04:57 --> 00:04:59

some Hong Kong some wisdom behind this

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

So I went and I asked the Imam

00:05:03 --> 00:05:42

of the masjid I said, Yeah, man, why? Why are we making this door are so much but the answer is not being given. First and foremost, he told me he said, sometimes Allah likes to be asked a lot, is one of the first things he told me. Sometimes Allah loves to be begged by his lanes. And then he told me, there has to be a reason. So be patient, and maybe Allah will show you the reason. I said, Okay, patience, I understand, but I really is there's something that we're not doing right. He said, Be patient. So I began to think about this problem that we face. And you know, it's at that time I was 2007. But now, Mashallah, we live in

00:05:44 --> 00:06:07

2012. And we have so many advances of technology and science that we completely overcomplicate our entire lives. And that's just somewhat of how we've been trained. You know, I'm, I'm studying psychology as a secular study, you know, we have been trained to think in such jargon,

00:06:09 --> 00:06:49

systematic ways that it's, it's almost irrational how the human mind behaves in our new age. For instance, all day long, we're involved in anyone who has any idea about technology involved in emailing people, or you're involved in text messaging, are you involved in AI, iming, or Facebook chatting, or whatever kind of social media or instant message that you use to get back and forth to each other. And it causes us unfortunately, we began to think in these parameters, our thoughts are very jargons. We don't take deep thought that much anymore. And that is one of the it's something that has been studied upon that we don't take deep thought very often, as, as opposed to people of

00:06:49 --> 00:07:28

the past who used to have great thoughts, deep thoughts, they could ponder upon one subject for such a great period of time, but we have gotten so used to multitasking. And our entire life is revolved around multitasking, that we think from one thing to another, if you take and just sit for one, five minute period of your day and become cognizant of your thoughts, you will find out that your thoughts are mostly racing different ideas, different things, I need to do this, I need to do that that has been done by this, that so many things going on, that we don't take as much thought and also we overcomplicate many things of our lives, because of the advances that we have gained, that

00:07:28 --> 00:07:31

we think that everything has to have this, you know, grand,

00:07:33 --> 00:07:37

grand process to accomplish anything. And

00:07:38 --> 00:08:08

when it came to this problem, I overcomplicated it, I started to think of all the problems that we find within the Muslim Ummah, and all of the things that we probably should be doing that we don't do. And I said, there's no such thing, there's no way that I'm going to be able to come up with this idea. So a couple of days later, after fudger we were sitting with Imam again and we were reading through the Quran as was our normal after fudger. And this day he wanted to read from wanted us to read for him from Joseph.

00:08:09 --> 00:08:52

And so Panama sort of self is a very beautiful soul, right? I love this sorta very much. And as we were reading to him, he was telling us just be reflect on what Allah is telling you don't think so much about you know, all of the, you know, scientific points of Tajweed or anything, just listen to what Allah azza wa jal is telling you. And we know that sort of Joseph begins with a lot as well praising himself. And then Allah asks a beautiful, very beautiful question, why is it that you say a thing that you don't do? Why do you say something what you don't do? Most hateful is it to your Lord that you say a thing which you do not do? So Hanna line in law reminds us he loves those who strive

00:08:52 --> 00:09:31

in His cause, as if they were one solid structure. And then a lot tells us the story of Moses and he said, and when he came to his people, and told them that he was the Messenger of Allah unto them, and indeed, their hearts deviated from amongst themselves. And Allah says he does not guide those people who are rebellious. And then Allah tells us about sort of about Isa Jesus, peace be upon him how he came to his people, and said that I am the messenger of Allah to you proclaiming that which came before me confirming the Torah and I've been sent with the Injeel. And then it says, when the clear evidence came to them, they said, this is nothing but plain magic. And then Allah reminds us

00:09:31 --> 00:09:55

that he most hateful is it to Allah that you can who is worse than the one who invents a lie about Allah while he has been called to Islam, and Allah does not guide those people who are wrongdoers. And then Subhan Allah Allah says he's the one who has sent His messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth to make it prevalent over every other way of life. No matter how much those who are opposed to it or disbelief may hate it.

00:09:57 --> 00:09:59

Then comes a very beautiful question and I are too late.

00:10:00 --> 00:10:31

And this is the subject that we're going to ponder upon in the next 20 minutes in sha Allah. Out of all of this comes a question that is so beautiful, that I didn't realize until that morning. Allah asks, yeah, you have ladina manohara deulofeu marotti Jonathan G. Komen bin alene Subhan. Allah, Allah, the creator of everything that exists the one true Creator of the heavens and the earth asks, oh, you who believe? Can I guide you to a transaction

00:10:32 --> 00:10:48

that will prevent me from having to give you a painful punishment? Now you have to think about this question. A lot is asking you, can I show you at giara a business you can get into with me, that will prevent me from ever having to painfully punish you?

00:10:49 --> 00:11:01

When I think about that question, I start to think that, yeah, I'll let you know how merciful Allah is to his creation, that he goes so far as to ask you, can I show you something you can do it, and I will never punish you.

00:11:02 --> 00:11:09

Of course, this question is rhetorical. Because no one was there Faculty of mind wants to be punished.

00:11:12 --> 00:11:26

No one in the right sense of mind wants to be punished especially, or they're gonna leave a painful punishment. So the answer, of course, is yes. Yes, yeah. Allah, please show us something that will avoid as a painful punishment.

00:11:27 --> 00:11:53

And in the next verse, is the answer to so many problems, so so so many problems that we as Muslims face, and also it becomes the answer to this door, Allah homeland. So why is Islam and Muslim mean, it also becomes the answer to the door of how to obtain everything that you want in this life and everything you desire in the next life. And the next verse only gives you three things, there are three things that allow asks us for.

00:11:54 --> 00:12:38

And out of those three things he, as a default, has already given you two, if you are a Muslim, two of them have already been given to you. The third one is the one that we missed so much. And I divide these three into two categories. Before I get into them, I want you to understand this very clearly, the first two have this formula. The first two ingredients to this formula, are inactive ingredients in and of themselves. And the third one is the active ingredient, or the active part part of this formula. What do I mean by inactive, inactive. If you go to any pharmacy, you go to CVS, you go to Walgreens, whatever you have here in Tennessee, and you get some cold medication off

00:12:38 --> 00:13:14

the shelf, and you turn it over, there's going to be two sets of ingredients, there's going to be active ingredients, there may be one active ingredient, two active ingredients, and then they're going to be inactive ingredients. And those inactive ingredients are only compounds and other things that make it possible for you to take the active ingredient. Because only way to take the active ingredient of an in and of itself is most likely intravenously directly into the blood system. So the inactives help that active ingredient, get into the body. But if you were to take the inactives alone and leave the active ingredient out, you would get no benefits. It is the active of that

00:13:14 --> 00:13:53

medicine. That is what you need. And in this formula, the three parts, all three of them need to go together if we leave the active out, it becomes a dead formula. Allah tells us in the next verse, the three things that he wants to avoid as a painful punishment. Number one, took me know Allah, Allah says, believe in me, believe in Allah. And most of you in here, believe in Allah. If you're a Muslim, this is the first point and to be entering Islam to believe La ilaha illa Allah there is nothing that has the right to be worshipped except the one true Creator of all that exists. So that one has been given to you as a default, if you are those whom Allah is addressing, and Allah is

00:13:53 --> 00:13:58

addressing Yeah, you have Latina, Amma know those who have belief. What is the second part of the formula?

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

What are Sula he believes in his messenger to mean only the lady Rasulullah he so believe in Allah, and believe in the Messenger of Allah Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam

00:14:10 --> 00:14:42

and these two things are the key to entering into Islam. You cannot be a Muslim without La ilaha illAllah Muhammad Rasulullah so the first two parts of this formula Allah has already given you as a default as a default Allah has already given you two thirds of this beautiful formula. But again, these are the inactives these are the inactives because just saying I believe in Atlantis messenger when you do nothing else with it is it isn't an active it is unchangeable. You can't see it tangibly it is the man his belief.

00:14:44 --> 00:14:49

The third part of the formula is what I believe that we are missing the most throughout the entirety of this

00:14:50 --> 00:14:59

is the active ingredient what to Jay he doing a feasibility la EBM monokuma and fusi come that you struggle you strive

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

You make effort, you make sacrifice, all that that word means gehad that make effort for me strive for me struggle for me. Whatever you have within you use it for me.

00:15:14 --> 00:15:35

What TJ, he don't physically learn that you do this solely for the sake of Allah. This is what Allah is asking for this onma to give effort. And this is what this is missing is the effort. The effort that becomes behind our Eman is something that we see so lacking our actions. And this is what Allah is asking us for. And you know,

00:15:37 --> 00:16:02

the prophet alayhi salatu was Salam he was known as the Allahu anhu described in canacona. Quran that he was the Quran in in his character, he embodied and lived the Quran. This didn't mean that he recited the Quran, as he began to say that it is a bill, a bill Omri when he that he was the Quran in its prohibitions and his commandments, he lived it to the best of his ability and to the best of any human being.

00:16:04 --> 00:16:06

And when the Sahara be alone, and

00:16:07 --> 00:16:08

there's a habit of Allah,

00:16:10 --> 00:16:46

Allah azza wa jal referred to them in the Quran as semana De Anza. They were people who responded to Allah with summit and now we hear you or Donna and we obey you. This was their norm. When Allah commanded something they did it when the Prophet alayhi salaatu wa Salaam told them to do something they did it when he said stay away from something they stayed away from it when a law prohibited something and became prohibited for them at that moment, they lived according to the command and prohibition of Allah. This is what Allah says about them contemporary Ramadan ofori Jelena they were the best of us. And that is the best that we can attain to seek to obtain is that attitude of Santa

00:16:46 --> 00:17:20

Ana, whatever you say, Allah, we're here to do it. And that is the best example. And then on the other end of the spectrum, we have a people whom Allah azza wa jal referred to them as Santa Ana, or Cena, they here and they disobeyed. They would say to Allah, we hear you, but we're just not going to do it. We hear you but we're going to do something else. We hear you but we're just going to absolutely ignore it, or we're going to change it or we're going to question so much that we can get out of it. And this is the worst end of the spectrum. And we know the promises that Allah has given to those on that ends.

00:17:22 --> 00:17:30

The good and bad thing about this um, and when I say this, I'm referring to all Muslims. As Allah says, in the human

00:17:31 --> 00:18:05

era, this ummah, Yama is one on one, and I am your Lord, therefore worship me, this ummah is not on any one of those ends. as a whole. We're not on the end of submitting, though I don't know we would be in a much greater disposition than we're in now. And we're not on the end of summit no was saying that we don't think you're online, blatantly disobeying most of us. We have a little bit more consciousness of Allah than just to completely blatantly continue to disobey him as a whole. We fall somewhere in the middle. And what I like to coin is that we have become the home of summit now.

00:18:06 --> 00:18:46

What's the loss? We hear you? But that's it. summit. We hear but we don't do anything. We hear the book of Allah recited to us, and we say Masha Allah, what a beautiful recitation, we hear the son of the Prophet alayhi salaatu wa Salaam and we say Masha Allah so beautiful. But we don't take it as a direct command. We hear the book of Allah recite it, and we don't question ourselves, what is the law telling me to do? What is the law telling me to stay away from now the book has become a recycle. It has become a beautification for us. And that's it, it adorn the shelves, it is in the hearts of those who have recited it, and we want to hear them recite it beautifully. But that's

00:18:46 --> 00:19:27

about it. That's about it. It has not become something that is a guidebook to how we live our lives. And that is our huge problem is the problem of inaction, of no movement for Allah subhanho wa Taala. Even though we're moving, yes, we're striving and struggling every day of our lives. Yes, we're on the grind, as they say in the streets. But that grind is only for what we can get out of this dunya. That effort is always for that paycheck that comes at the end of the week. That effort is only for that house that I just built, or that beautiful car that I just bought, or or for whatever it is that vacation, I want to take whatever it is, that becomes our effort, striving for what we can get

00:19:27 --> 00:19:54

out of this life, and you'll never get enough so stop wasting your effort. A lot as we're generally saying what to J Duna fishability law, that you now work for me, your effort becomes for me, you're struggling becomes for me, no matter what it is that you're doing. If you go to work, you go to work for me. You go to work to please me. At the end of the week, you get the paycheck because of me. Allah is our Rosa he's the one who provides the sustenance.

00:19:56 --> 00:19:59

This is an idea that this ummah has lost the work for over us region.

00:20:00 --> 00:20:43

The effort for Allah and Allah is very clear about what he wants. What to J you do an FEC, Billy learning be Mr. likoma and fusi come. Allah says he wants your wealth. Yes, Allah wants your wealth. He doesn't need it. Allah is free of need from anything of the creation. Allah says in the end of Serato, Mohammed, Allah is free of need is that when you are the one who was in need to give in the way of Allah azza wa jal, you're the one that needs it. But Allah is asking the Quran who will lend to Allah goodly loan, who will give to Allah from his wealth that is only a trust to you, every single dollar that you make in your life is because Allah has provided it to you. And it is only

00:20:43 --> 00:21:24

entrusted to you for a period of time until it leaves you and then when it leaves you it is either going to be for you or against you. If it is spent only for worldly gain with no with no intent to please Allah azza wa jal whatsoever, then it is only for you in this life, whatever you bought with that money, you got it, you better enjoy it. But the money that is given for the sake of Allah azza wa jal, Allah azza wa jal says, you will find it with him, and it will be returned to you many fold over it is a return process. So, as Virgil is asking for your wealth, yes, without a doubt, alone want you to return to Him, that which he gave you so that he can multiply it for you and then give

00:21:24 --> 00:21:25

it back to you.

00:21:26 --> 00:21:37

So Panama, what a great transaction that Allah is asking us for. It is of our benefit. Yet Allah is telling us these are one of the things that will prevent us from having to punish us.

00:21:39 --> 00:21:42

And then what else does Allah want from us? One fusi

00:21:43 --> 00:21:55

and yourselves, you put your greatest commodity at my disposal, you put your greatest commodity yourself, at the disposal of Allah. That means when I have time I dedicate some of my time to Allah.

00:21:56 --> 00:22:22

I dedicate some of my time to my events of Allah. I dedicate some of my time to help out at the masjid. I dedicate some of my time to teach my children the book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Prophet alayhi salatu salam, I take some of my time to help the poor, to help the needy, to help the indigent to help the orphans. I put my effort some of this life that Allah gave me some of this help that Allah gave me some of this breath that Allah gave me, I use it to please the one who gave it to me.

00:22:23 --> 00:22:57

If we gain this attitude again, dear brothers and sisters, we will see a learner's Magellan Come on our side. And I'm going to show you very clearly the law says this, but this is what we're missing. We're missing the effort. A lot once the effort, you need to ask yourself when you leave this building today, what am I going to do for a lot today? You need to wake up every morning, asking yourself what am I going to do for a lot today, for indeed, if you don't have a plan to please a lot today, then you might as well go back to bed. Because you're not going to do any good for yourself, or you're not going to do any good for anyone else. But Allah says if you do these three things,

00:22:58 --> 00:23:17

there you go Morocco and content, Allah moon, these are better for you. If you only knew and what Allah says better for you in the general sense, that means they're better for you than anything else. They're better for you than anything else, if you only understood it, and what will a lot give us for these things and this is what I'm going to finish with supanova

00:23:19 --> 00:23:47

brothers sisters, if you only understood what Allah wants to give you for that little bit of effort will law he you would jump over each other on your way out of the master to do what you can for the sake of Allah. Number one, Allah says I won't painfully punish you. And if that was all that all I wanted to give me. That is more than enough for me that all of the sense that I did against you, yeah, Allah, you will not punish me for them. All of the times that disobeyed you, you'll forget it. All of those times when I should have done something for you. But I did not have laziness. You let it go.

00:23:48 --> 00:24:33

I'm in for that. Where do you want me to sign? That's it. There can be no more greater gift from Allah as with jasmine to not punish us. But Allah soprano Horta, Allah, Who is for him, he is the one who is intently merciful and graciously forgiving. He says, I will give you more. I just won't punish you. I'll also do something else. And then the next verse we find the law says, Yes, we look on the new welcome. Yes, welcome the new bukannya Allah Allah says that he will forgive your sins. What does that mean? Did not just say he won't punish us? No, of course Allah says he wouldn't punish us. But a lot could not punish us and then causes to stop existing, just like animals. I like

00:24:33 --> 00:24:59

to do justice between human beings. He can forgive us for what we did from him. And then he could say, you know what, just go away. That's it be done. And no one could complain to a law that he was unjust to you. No one could complain that a law was unjust. But Allah says above not punishing you I will forgive you. I will forgive you. What does forgiveness because there is a difference. What does forgiveness bring? You're feeling the news.

00:25:00 --> 00:25:43

Welcome to the kill Jana, I will forgive you and then give you an interview into my agenda. So Panama. It is the forgiveness of a law that gains us the entry into paradise. That's it. No one goes to Jannah. Without Allah's forgiveness as the Prophet alayhi salatu salam says, narrated by Abu huraira and the collection of Mr. Muslim. Let none of you think that by doing good deeds, you will go to Paradise. Let none of you think by doing good deeds, you'll go to Paradise. They said not even you or messenger of Allah. He said, not even me unless Allah forgives me. unless Allah forgives me. Not even I will enter into paradise. So no, the fundamental agenda. The price of Paradise is the

00:25:43 --> 00:25:58

forgiveness of Allah azza wa jal. This is what we strive for. This is what we struggle for, for Allah to tell us in the Day of Judgment, I have forgiven you. Because when Allah forgives you, Jenna, comes next year Phil comes a new book.

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

If that's all the last day of the philosophy up there, instead of will not punish you. I will forgive you. And I will give you Jenna,

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

we would all say and I'm sure you would agree with me to say Okay, that's enough. I don't need anything else. I'm okay with that. I'm happy with that. I'm more than happy with that. But a lot of Israel is not satisfied with that alone. So Panama, a lot of your your lower your Rob is not satisfied with that alone.

00:26:27 --> 00:26:32

He says well, you gotta dream into the * and har mama Sakina tonybet infigen

00:26:34 --> 00:26:44

Allah says not only what I give you, gentlemen, underneath which rivers are flowing, but I will give you beautiful good homes, the gentleman at the admin in the Garden of Eden.

00:26:45 --> 00:27:00

Allah says, I will give you Jenna and then I will give you prime real estate in paradise genda to the home of our forefather Adam and his wife, Eve, the originator of humanity, along with give us real estate, prime real estate in general.

00:27:02 --> 00:27:32

Subhan Allah, and then Allah says with their legal team, this is the greatest achievement you will ever have in your life. Not that degree that you get in college, not that doctorate not that master's degree, not that six figure paycheck that maybe six figure home, that beautiful car, that beautiful wife, those beautiful children a lot as well. Jill never in the Quran says that these are an achievement in and of themselves. A law says yes, they are zenithal How you doing? Yeah, but then a lot reminds us and Nima and Wanda Kumara

00:27:35 --> 00:27:55

fitna that your wealth and your children can become a fitna for you as well. But Allah says that equal fazool Arlene, this is the greatest achievement for Allah to forgive you. To give you Jenna to give you prime real estate is the best achievement and how does the law say that you can get that achievement? Three things took me No, no. He went to jail he don't

00:27:58 --> 00:28:02

just believe in Allah His Messenger and put a little effort for the sake of Allah. know

00:28:05 --> 00:28:46

if that were it, again, we said it was enough on the law wouldn't punish us. But that's not all. Allah azza wa jal is not done. Subhan Allah Allah is not done. Because Allah azza wa jal is speaking now of accurate everything's inaccurate forgiveness and accurate and no punishment, accurate gender and you know, all of that is coming next in the next life. And a lot as well knows that sometimes for us, it is hard to comprehend. It's hard for us to comprehend something that we have very little knowledge of. So Allah azza wa jal says, In the last verse that I'm going to use today, the second the last verse of sorts of stuff will threaten the Buddha. I'll give you something else which you

00:28:46 --> 00:28:47

love.

00:28:49 --> 00:29:00

I'll give you something else which you love, which you desire, which you are begging me for every single Muslim begging me for during the month of Ramadan, you're begging me for natural amino law even further.

00:29:03 --> 00:29:26

Allah says, I will give you help from me, help from a lion a clear victory, help from Allah and a clear, fat 100 Ottoman arriba a clear victory, something that is clear. What are we asking a lot for, and the human soul and ally saying natural mineral law would come to you? We're asking a lot to help us and allies telling you my help has already been given to you 1400 years ago.

00:29:28 --> 00:29:30

You just need to fulfill the action plan.

00:29:31 --> 00:29:53

So it seems very odd now, when I hear this door on the home, what is Islam Allah muslimeen and I know that Allah entered that 1400 years ago, that the Lord has already given it to us. So how do we look now as Muslims asking something from a law which he has already given to us, but we're not willing to do that which he gave us a requirement.

00:29:54 --> 00:30:00

It's just like someone who has $100,000 in the bank and they are standing

00:30:00 --> 00:30:14

out on the street corner begging for money, standing out on the street corner begging for money. And you ask them what are you doing? Why are you because I need to pay my bills? Don't you have a bank account? Yeah, but I forgot the PIN code. Well then go find the PIN code, go get it go change it, go get your money.

00:30:16 --> 00:30:54

Allah azza wa jal has left a huge deposit for us in the book of Allah azza wa jal, just sometimes we need to know the code we need to know the access code. And Allah is telling us for all of this good that allow us to give us an Africa all of this beautiful help that Allah wants to give us and then on top of that, Allah says not only will my help come to you, but my help will result in photon but even it will result in a victory that is clear for you. A victory that everyone will know it is because Allah azza wa jal has facilitated this for you. No one will be able to attribute this victory to your own merits. This victory will come from Allah azza wa jal alone, but Allah says the

00:30:54 --> 00:31:04

access code is three things, took me novella, he was only he went to jail. He is a billionaire, he'd be a monochrome one fujichrome akula. Kava was actually one of them.

00:31:15 --> 00:31:21

hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen wa salatu salam ala rasulillah Allah Allah He was happy he edma in

00:31:23 --> 00:32:06

ilaha illallah wa Hola. sharika Dawa shadow and the Mohammedan Abu rasuluh. So the brothers and sisters the question I have for you is are you serious about that? When you say Allah homelands or what is Islam honestly mean? Are you sincere about that? Do you really mean it? Because if you really mean it, then you will back that up with the action that Allah asks. You will bank that Dora with the effort that you show to Allah subhanho wa Taala that I'm not just asking you for something and expecting you to just give it to me for going the requirements and you've already given me in your book. No, I'm asking you for something yeah Allah and I want to show the effort because hussen

00:32:06 --> 00:32:54

Allah bursary, Rahim Allah Allah, the Imam metabolising. He said what is true means in English that Eman? Eman is not the substance. It is not the substance of your hopes and your desires. Eman is not the substance of your hopes and your desires. Just saying took me normally biller he also he that is not the essence of Eman. He said a man true Eman is that which will settle on your heart and then it will become manifested in your actions. You will practice what you preach something that you believe in, you will live by that belief. If you believe that you walk out in the middle of the highway, you will get run over by a car, then that belief will show in your actions. If you come to the highway,

00:32:54 --> 00:33:34

you look both ways. That belief is apparent in your actions. If you believe that fire is hot, you will avoid it you won't touch it you get burned by it your belief will show that through your actions. But for us to say we believe in our mind is messenger. But we don't give the actions that Allah asks us for fulfill the commands of Allah avoid the prohibited prohibitions of Allah and the prohibitions and commands of the Prophet alayhi salaatu wa sallam, then we are only bearing a witness against ourselves that there is something wrong with our Eman. So inshallah I'm asking you today when you leave this place, ask yourself what are you going to do to become involved for the

00:33:34 --> 00:34:14

deen of Allah, all of us have a responsibility today. All of us have a responsibility towards this honor to put some effort forward. Because a little bit of effort if we just give a little bit of effort for Allah, then we know that Allah as virgin will come and make up the slack. We don't need to do everything perfectly. We're not perfect. We don't need to make sure that every single person is doing everything at perfect place perfect time. No, just make a little bit of effort that is sincere. One thing that I do know and I finished with this, because a lot of people usually ask you What should we do? If I knew everything that we should be doing then how we're probably handing that

00:34:14 --> 00:34:53

out like, you know, ration tablets. But one thing that I can tell you without a doubt is that anything that you do with airfloss for Allah with sincerity to please Allah subhanho wa Taala and that is in accordance to the book of Allah and the Sunnah of the prophet alayhi salaatu wa Salaam It is a good action that will be rewarded. Even if you make some mistakes. It is an action that will be rewarded, even if Allah azzawajal reward you by putting you in the right place, sending someone to you to correct you, sending someone to help you etc. Allow will reward sincerity. Allah gives for sincerity that which he doesn't give for anything else. So have sincerity for Allah azza wa jal and

00:34:53 --> 00:34:56

try to find out what you can do for the sake of Allah today. Insha Allah

00:34:57 --> 00:34:59

And may Allah azza wa jal make us all of those who live

00:35:00 --> 00:35:14

And, and obey insha Allah Robin Athena for dunya Hassan Athan of erotica, Santa San Joaquin Abner and the home and so Islam one Muslim in Allah home and surah Islam will muslimeen sikuli McCann yahama Rafi mean
