Yusuf Gassiep – Naseegah Segment #07

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

			From amongst the many concepts
		

00:00:17 --> 00:00:17

			discussed
		

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

			during the month of Ramadan,
		

00:00:20 --> 00:00:22

			concepts which
		

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

			become apparent during the month of Ramadan,
		

00:00:25 --> 00:00:28

			are 3 core concepts.
		

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

			Rahmah,
		

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

			mercy,
		

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

			magfira,
		

00:00:32 --> 00:00:33

			forgiveness,
		

00:00:36 --> 00:00:37

			and or emancipation
		

00:00:37 --> 00:00:38

			from.
		

00:00:40 --> 00:00:40

			The prophet
		

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

			is described by Allah
		

00:00:45 --> 00:00:47

			as being a mercy to mankind.
		

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

			The book of Allah
		

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

			is described
		

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

			as being
		

00:00:54 --> 00:00:55

			a as
		

00:00:56 --> 00:00:56

			a cure,
		

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

			and it's described as a mercy
		

00:00:59 --> 00:01:00

			to mankind.
		

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

			Allah
		

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

			possesses the names Arbuhman
		

00:01:06 --> 00:01:07

			and Ar Raheem,
		

00:01:08 --> 00:01:11

			all speaking about the general
		

00:01:11 --> 00:01:12

			and specific
		

00:01:12 --> 00:01:13

			mercy
		

00:01:13 --> 00:01:15

			which Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		

00:01:16 --> 00:01:17

			shows this umma,
		

00:01:17 --> 00:01:19

			shows this creation,
		

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

			shows
		

00:01:21 --> 00:01:22

			the slaves of Allah Subhanahu
		

00:01:23 --> 00:01:24

			Wa Ta'ala.
		

00:01:25 --> 00:01:26

			Imagine how merciful
		

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

			Allah
		

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

			is
		

00:01:29 --> 00:01:31

			if what we are experiencing
		

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

			is one portion of a 100 portions
		

00:01:35 --> 00:01:36

			of the mercy of Allah subhanahu
		

00:01:37 --> 00:01:37

			wa ta'ala.
		

00:01:38 --> 00:01:39

			So this month
		

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

			offers us
		

00:01:41 --> 00:01:41

			this closeness
		

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

			to Allah
		

00:01:44 --> 00:01:46

			where we can attain the mercy of Allah
		

00:01:49 --> 00:01:50

			It also offers
		

00:01:50 --> 00:01:52

			the opportunity to be forgiven,
		

00:01:52 --> 00:01:55

			and 2 main acts of worship
		

00:01:55 --> 00:01:57

			are the keys to this forgiveness.
		

00:01:57 --> 00:01:58

			When the prophet
		

00:01:59 --> 00:02:00

			says,
		

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

			Ramadan,
		

00:02:05 --> 00:02:07

			and whoever fast the month of Ramadan and
		

00:02:07 --> 00:02:10

			whoever prays during the nights of Ramadan,
		

00:02:13 --> 00:02:15

			his previous sins
		

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

			will all be
		

00:02:16 --> 00:02:17

			forgiven.
		

00:02:18 --> 00:02:20

			And the 3rd and very important
		

00:02:20 --> 00:02:21

			concept
		

00:02:21 --> 00:02:22

			is that of
		

00:02:23 --> 00:02:25

			NICS being set free
		

00:02:25 --> 00:02:26

			from hellfire.
		

00:02:27 --> 00:02:29

			And in the previous segment, we mentioned a
		

00:02:29 --> 00:02:31

			hadith where the prophet
		

00:02:32 --> 00:02:33

			says that this
		

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

			happens
		

00:02:35 --> 00:02:37

			every night during the month of Ramadan.
		

00:02:38 --> 00:02:40

			Let us use this month correctly.
		

00:02:41 --> 00:02:44

			Let us not choose certain nights and certain
		

00:02:44 --> 00:02:45

			parts of the month
		

00:02:45 --> 00:02:48

			to be active and worship Allah, Subhanahu Wa
		

00:02:48 --> 00:02:50

			Ta'ala, and then leave
		

00:02:50 --> 00:02:52

			other portions of the month
		

00:02:54 --> 00:02:55

			for the TV,
		

00:02:55 --> 00:02:56

			for
		

00:02:57 --> 00:02:57

			other,
		

00:02:58 --> 00:02:59

			you know, activities,
		

00:02:59 --> 00:03:02

			but rather use the first up until the
		

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

			last to attain the mercy,
		

00:03:04 --> 00:03:05

			forgiveness,
		

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

			and to be set free from hellfire.
		

00:03:14 --> 00:03:15

			This Ramadan,
		

00:03:16 --> 00:03:17

			do more.
		

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

			SANTAV,
		

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

			changing lives through development and relief.
