We praise Allah because he is Allah. We praise Allah because he's our ramen or Rahim and Nellie can produce a salon that book Malema Haman, Allah azizan Jacques bharat mata capital, a harlequin bear bedroom was so weird. So we Rue Alacran Smith,
we praise the Lord because he's the Merciful. He's the holy.
He's the embodiment and epitome of all of the meanings involved in his names.
We praise Him because He is Allah, the Creator of all that exists. And we thank him for his blessings.
Praises expressing beautiful words
of appreciation for beauty. And Allah had Jamil you hit will jump man, Allah has beautiful and loves beauty. So we praise Allah for his beauty.
And we thank someone for their blessings.
We thank someone for their blessing. So we thank Allah for all of the blessings
he's bestowed upon us. Those we know and those we recognize and those that we know not.
As we all know, we just had in this country Thanksgiving Day.
So we're not entering the bait should we celebrate Thanksgiving or not, people are free to do what they want.
But we do use this as an occasion to reflect on the nature of thankfulness in our religion,
and to provide an evidence or proof of the validity of that, in other words, identifying something in our cultural heritage, and then using that to highlight an aspect of our religion. This is something that Prophet did sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and the proof of that is a Hadith related in Sahih Muslim where the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, an OB use Allah Allahu alayhi wa sallam upon us Taku kalima to call her share Iran call Cohen who lobbied
that the truest word a poet spoke was the poet of God is the saying of Levy. So he identified something in the cultural heritage of the Arabs to make a religiously relevant point.
So now they'll call in libido call libido Anna Kulu Shane Mark Hello Hola, baudeloo We're cool learn cool Luna
Amen lemma Hallett there in the every thing besides a law is false
in other words it has no true independent existence except the law
and every blessing will inevitably pass away
oh couldn't do naman Nana Hallett is a hero.
And so the prophets Allah line was Selim took this line from the cultural heritage of the Arabs to emphasize the reality and the nature of towhee and Kulu Shane, hello hola bowtie Lu. Everything other than Allah is false.
Then Hello Allah. And so we take this
occasion of thankfulness to talk about a shook thankfulness as our teachings our religious teachings present them
The first thing is linguistically understanding the origin of sugar.
One of the origins is found in the saying of the Arabs EB launcher core, EB alone shell Corp.
So if you translate in literally a thankful camel, but that's not the origin and the language the origin evil in Eb learn shell Corp is a camel that gets fat on a little bit of grass.
So that's the camel you want you want do you don't want the camel, the pasture is scarce in the Arabian Peninsula. You don't want a camel that eats and eats and eats all by himself eats all the grass and doesn't even get fat.
You want a camel that eat a little bit and gets nice and fat gives a lot of milk that's the origin and this tells us gives us insight into the name of Allah subhanho wa Taala a chakra war amongst the names of Allah Sialkot some of us like myself we convert to Islam and we start to learn things and then we miss apply them. So one of the first things we learn as A salaam aleikum, of course.
Then we learn chakra that someone gives you something say chakra or the chakra honey. Chakra means thanks. So we get to Allah's name as she recorded this Oh ALLAH is the thankful
know the meaning of the name goes back to the linguistic origin. So even when she called the camel that gets fat on a little bit of grass. Allah who has show Cora who are your T cell web and zielen, Allah, Hamelin Pauline,
the one who gives you a great reward for a little bit of action. So you see the shoe court, the camera, it's a little grass and gets fat. We give a little bit of action to Allah and He gives us incredible reward. That's Allah shawcor.

Now, we know
two types of people
to just
has it or dwell on this point. All of us know them
One is a shellcode and the other one is El kheir four.
So the thankful person is shellcode and the Ingrid is Carrefour
or catheter
and the thankful check. Allah Tala reminds us in the Quran with Edna Rob bukem The initial cartoon as he didn't know when in California in Derby lucha de
when your Lord proclaim
and here is not learn show cartoon if you give thanks I will multiply the blessings so this is a manifestation of a show called Allah giving increase for thanks or gratitude for his blessing well in Kfar to him so it's not talking about rejecting faith it's talking about rejecting the blessing well in converting in other be less shady you should know My punishment is severe.
So we know two types of people we know one person
he needs $100
She needs $100
And we only have $5 You say well I only have five I give her take take $5 One person says Giselle Koloff hair, masha Allah you know this is the seed money this is the bedrock as in this $5 The rest will be easy the other 95 is easy.
This person is Sialkot
his his thinking and appreciative for the littlest of blessings.
Then the other type is California. stoke fear Allah you know you got it man
are you holding back look at your car man you drive you rolling up in a Tesla you don't even hear you rolling up you know you got it you hold them back $5 I still feel love it take the $5 No I keep it
here the whole Carrefour
no matter how much you give he wants more.
We should ask ourselves that we shall pour our or we can afford no one in this country should be careful.
Look at the blessings
they get the blessings. Some of us unfortunately, no one here necessary this a generalised statement
there like the person Allah describes in the court and
thirdly, woman HELOC to Wahida.
Without to love who man a man dude where Benina shahada from my Jaco and as he can who can be a yeti now neither
leave me alone to deal with the one I created alone.
Our fair brothers and sisters at the end of it is going to be one on one
one on one
us against Allah.
You know who's gonna be in control of that game? You're not you play your little brother. You might be him one on one.
One is one on one with Allah Tala. You're totally at his mercy.
Var for many women who love to wear Hayden. Were just out to LA who MELHEM them do that we've given him expensive wealth. Everywhere he looks he can see his wealth.
So like some of us in our backyards we look this way we see our house. We look this way we see the pool we look that way we see the nice shed that will be a house for someone in some countries. We look that way we see the woods there our woods.
Let them do that. When they need us you who that? What does that mean? He's so wealthy, that his sons are always there in his sight. They don't have to go hurt the camels. They don't have to join the caravan. They don't have to go hunting. He's got all this so much wealth his sons can just stay there and chill.
We're Banila sure who that
one that one. Tula who Tim he that and we've made everything easy for him. We had
everything easy and then one thumbs up. And as he said, Then he wants even more.
He wants even more. He's not satisfied
and
This materialism can make us unsatisfied.
We have a roof we have a house, we have shelter, we have heat, we have food. We want more.
And why does Allah say he's not going to give him more color and who cannot be 89 either. He's been stubborn and rejecting our signs.
He's been stubborn and rejecting our signs. In other words, all of these gifts have not enhance beautify, adorn his heart with faith.
Then * Allah.
The Quran speaks of human reality.
Some of us get caught up and we forget the blessings.
We forget our parents struggles.
Some of us we forget our parents came here with nothing.
They work day and night,
to put a roof over our heads to change our diapers to clean our up after us to feed us to give us a good education sacrifice, saved up their money to move into an area with a good school district like this town.
They could have stayed in some town where houses are cheaper, they wouldn't have to work as hard. They could have dropped one of the jobs, but they did it all for you.
And then we forget because of the smallest inconvenience.
Not something necessary. Our FOCA has developed a scheme of absolutely central things, the road to react and things that are nice, but they're not absolutely essential hijacked. And then Cassini app, things that beautify and adorn so we can absolutely do without them.
But they Beautify.
And so we become dismissive of Allah's blessing because of passing Yeah.
Oh Dad, why won't you buy me that kind of sneaker?
You already have 10 pairs, what do you need that particular one for? It's not a need. It's not a necessity. It's not a need. It's not essential.
But that that sparks a crisis
within some of some of us
we should be shall call. Those who for the smallest blessings are thankful
that they mentioned the three manifestations of thankfulness. Chakra and a show crew. Welcome. We're so crew Billy sandwich show crew, villager wearing thankfulness with the heart, and that lies in acknowledging and recognizing the blessing.
And so the person who's in a faith crisis
because they couldn't get a pair of sneakers
or because they might be older and age
because their husband didn't get a house with stainless steel appliances.
Or whatever.
That person doesn't recognize the blessing in the in the heart.
Why because the heart has become hard and cold and therefore unreceptive to blessings.
So the heart has become blind. Allah says, It's not the vision that becomes blind. It's the hearts that become blind.
So they can't see the blessing. That's why it's important for us to stay close. I have a close relationship with Allah a close relationship with the Quran because those are the things that soften our hearts. It's important to kick our heart Our tongues moist with the remembrance of Allah subhanaw taala those are the things that clean, cleanse and soften our hearts. Those are the things that Illuminate our hearts. When our hearts are illuminated, and there's light, we can see the blessings.
A chakra will shuffle below the sun, and then thankfulness with the tongue.
thanking Allah subhanho wa Taala for his blessings and thanking people mellem yesh Quran nurse Flm yesterday last one who is not thanked the people has not thanked Allah
for
Thank you parents,
for raising you responsibly.
Thank you parents
for sacrificing for you, thank you children, for coming to Juma
for every one that comes his 10 that probably don't come with yours and one of the one out of 10 who come thank them for being an obedient child.
Thank them brothers and sisters
shokuhou Billy said
and then a chakra village aware
and thankfulness with the limbs.
So, Islam is not taught.
If the word itself implies action, so must start as lemma. Usili is learner.
So the process of submitting
the act of submitting, it involves action, the muster we send English a verbal now
it has the quality of the noun not being attached to any of the periods of time, the present the past the future, or the verb is an action connected to time.
dourada so I hit him, he hit him Dora that
you're the rebou He's hitting him or will hit him.
Hit him has to be in the future.
The hab is the action of going but there's no time associated with it.
So there's action though. Islam is that type of word muster, it has action associated with it. And so what is the family of debt owed instructed to do in the loo Allah Tao who the chakra
and then Allah who the chakra Oh family or download the two interpretations for chakra, can you please just clarifying the action which means everything you do, do it out of appreciation to Allah. And then to Allah Tao, the chakra
when you eat, thank Allah
when you put on your clothing and you have clothing, clean clothing to put on thank Allah
when you go to your job and you have a lawful, lawful employment so you're not you're not morally conflicted, because your job might involve something haram thank Allah subhanho wa Taala if you're involved in something haram and you're morally conflicted, thank Allah because your heart is still alive.
And then look for something better. Don't leave what you have, generally speaking,
because it might you leave it without finding something better might precipitate more harm than is involved in working at that place.
But have thankfulness for a heart that's still alive? And because the heart is still alive, you can be morally conflicted.
So Tamizh or marulan be an Allah chakra.
So my phone and V.
Work acts of sugar Allah Delta chakra and what are those? The Prophet Salah Salem he tells us when is described by Aisha Radi Allahu
Taala cannot Rasulullah he SallAllahu Annie who was sending them out your pumila Layli had to work on it or Tatara Katana called the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam with Stan for parent prayer and night until his feet swell or until his feet cracked.
For call to Lima Tustin we'll have your rasool Allah will cut the golfer Hola Hola, Connecticut them and then BK when the talker. So I said to him why are you doing this on Messenger of Allah. When your past or future sins have been forgiven or mistakes it's not a sin be happier to fully learn your past or future mistakes have been forgiven for call us Allah Allahu alayhi wa sallam Flf who hipbone and Hakuna Abdon shall Cora. Should I not then love to be a faithful servant?
Should I not they love to be a faithful servant? So the limbs being involved in the prayer one
expression of his thankfulness to Allah subhana wa Tada. So brothers and sisters every opportunity you get to involve your limbs in worship, take advantage of that opportunity. Shokran dilla out of your appreciation to Allah subhanho wa Taala as an expression of your appreciation to Allah subhanho wa Taala
this is who we have a thankful ummah. And this is the last point we'll make as the time has expired. We'll go back to the verse with the egg donor Rob bucola in the show caller tonight as Eden come while in California to another de la Shadi.
And when you lower proclaimed if you give thanks for my blessings, I will increase your Lord's blessing. And if you fail to give thanks if you are ungrateful, you should know that My punishment is severe.
Do we have a what is that it's describing envy, amongst other things, because envy is the desire to see a blessing Allah has given His servant taken away
as one of the epitomes of ingratitude.
It's an epitome of ingratitude.
Your order to is earlier to Niramit and ama Hola. Hola. Hola Abdi.
Because you want Allah's blessing upon someone else to be taken away?
So when we have that attitude, and that orientation widespread in our societies,
what does it open the gateway to well and conform to another vilasa did
and if you reject my blessings, you should know that My punishment is severe.
So brothers and sisters, by being a nation by being a community, of thankful people, we invite the blessings of Allah for men makalah the opposing implication if ingratitude
brings the punishment and the eradication of the blessings, gratitude brings the graces and an increase in the blessings. Well, then Shackleton as it may Allah blesses to be a thankful community. May Allah blesses to be thankful individuals. May Allah Tala bless us to express our appreciation with our tongues to do the things that will soften our hearts so that we can acknowledge and be receptive to the blessings and responsive to the blessings and may Allah bless us to extend to express our gratitude for his blessings with our bodies. May Allah Tala bless us to pray Shokran Allah thankful out of gratitude to law to pick up the Quran when we have some spare time out of
gratitude to Allah. Too fast a day here and there. We're feeling healthy and strong out of gratitude to Allah subhanho wa Taala Akula Kali Heather was look for her li well, will He say meaning Yoko Mr.
hamdulillahi rabbil Alameen wa Salatu was Salam ala see you didn't we're sitting Sayidina Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi wa salam in North a woman

He was salam Tasneem and Kathira final point may Allah bless us to be those people who can recognize the greatness of Allah's mercy and bounty in the smallest
graces and blessings that are bestowed upon us. Because we don't know tequila will or shaky Tamra ward off the punishment of *, even with half a date you might give in charity, someone might give us half a day, but they only had one day. And they could kept one for their child or themselves to break their fast with on that day, and they gave the other half toast. That's all they had. And so we might think it's small but it's great with Allah subhanaw taala and so we should treat it as if this is the greatest gift I've ever received. That little small card someone took time to write
out and then sent to me
you should see it as the greatest gift that we could ever receive and this show quarter all haemophilia Muslim meanwhile Muslim had one more meaning in one minute and yeah even while I'm wet robbing Allah to the Kaluga
