Bismillah R Rahman Rahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen wa Salatu was Salam O Allah say you didn't we're sitting in say Eugene Hammond while Ernie he was fine he was sending to Sleeman kathira Rob menelik al hamdu kmm body Legion early wojcik Willie all the photonics time calendar Seaton and it can make analysis a lot more salli wa sallim wa barik alesi ed know what have you been? What Cobra ti umina Mohammed in early he was he a cylinder steamer kathira As salam wa Alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. This is mams a checker and we're here to continue our journey through Latif in the addeth Lima FEMA lassman army mineral raw if living the Roger Hambali so we're here, my dear
brothers and sisters, on this evening to continue our journey through the subtleties of knowledge concerning what each season of the year consent contains of religious to raise
100 ila So, and hamdulillah as we approach the last 10 days of Ramadan.
There's a section
that deals specifically with that. And that section is called images and modulus or raw feed the Asheville Asheville aware team in Ramadan, so the fourth session, literally the fourth
gathering or sitting
for translating it, translating it a session, the fourth session dealing with remembering the last 10 nights or days of Ramadan. Generally, the day in its entirety was specifically the night a lot tonic in this topic. And each of the sections opens with the Hadith. And then the during the explanation, there's various verses of poetry that are introduced along with Quranic idea along with a hadith to support the original Hadith. So we're just looking primarily at the poetry. So the poetry the Hadith rather than opens the session session
is the following. And I shall tell rob the law and how pilot can rosu law he saw a law that he was sending me that had an ash shed them zero who were a call upon shut them at zero who here Laila, who were a acaba el
* foon mata for con la. So I share may Allah be pleased with her relate that when the last 10
nights
specifically here when the night last 10 nights of Ramadan into the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would take literally literally tighten his waist to Apple is Longhi the same Bangladesh is mizar is the Arab say his lower garment and that means two things.
The owner mentioned two things. One is he got very serious about his worship. He was always serious, but very, very
devoted, extremely devoted in his worship. So we say that he tightened his belt and got down to work got down to business and another interpretation he will avoid any relationship
Night, his wives sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So these nights were for Allah subhana wa. So either definitely Asha
shed them miserable. What? What? Laila Who? And he would stay up for most of the night salaallah and he was sent by Layla who says night he would be literally alive during the night during his night but alive with worship and devotion, of course en and Sala Vicar. So, yeah, lelo a hava Hello. And he would wake up his wives, a solid, a solid, so we will call out a solid, a Salah, prayer prayer, I guess time the prayers, the prayers, not time to sleep. So during the
the after the early part of the night, he would awaken his wives solo and he was seller. And so this is a time for us to really strive because these are the days was likely Laila to Qatar is to be found, and we'll discuss the implications of that.
So, in the Roger Roger wrote him a whole lot.
He mentions some verses related to not sleeping during these nights. So he says, amongst other things,
nominee, your name and Bill layli can Thorkil 201 sleeping during the night for how long will you sleep komiya habibie, accordion and mouse.
So it said get up and worship on my beloved. the appointed time is drawing close.
And so these nights there there's there are many appointments, the time when a law might open our hearts to pour knowledge and love,
love of him into our hearts, the time that one of those breezes of His mercy might blow and touch our hearts to our room in an ephah hotter and mature pecan. The nnd lay in the forehead or mediheal free will be hair mania shell woman a bed femen or sorbet who shall set aside so are the 10 your spa bother her about learning a lot. First part is Hadith of the Prophet sallahu wa sallam, expose yourself to the gentle breezes of your words mercy.
And those breezes during the year they don't blow anytime with more strength with more consistency than during the last two nights of Ramadan with the possible exception of the first 10 days of villager.
Learn Hello law exposure so how do we expose ourselves without prayer without courage
for our cm but a night Come on, we're not continuing to fast and night prayer our worship our devotion our core and our rod as car. That's how we expose ourselves to those breezes. The elderly lady never had the ability he will free will be her mania share woman a baddie for Verily Allah has gentle breezes of His mercy he touches there with whomsoever He pleases of his servants than men or saw that who whoever is touched by one of those breezes. Sorry, those are the 10 yes or bad habit.
Whoever is touched by one of those breezes experiences bliss and happiness that's so profound. They're never sat in for the rest of eternity. Then
these are those nights. Your name and the lady can talk to Konya, Habibi, Cardinal no aidoo Well, coverman a Labour Party, he will then either head Yakubu so and take from the night and from the time that it comes to attains a designated portion of worship, and I don't want to read a Joseph core and I'm going to trust Dan for all 20 records of taraweeh. I'm going to engage in these specific routinized action. That's the weird and the weird has many benefits. One benefit of the width of one is consistent so you read the Jews. Of course, let's say that takes half an hour.
Okay, that takes half an hour. So that means of the two
24 hours half an hour
is
spent in your weird.
So after 48 years, so 24 hours
in a day,
after 48 years and the entire
year has been taken from our reset, because even if you're in attentive your tone can engage in sin and backbiting. So you add to that half an hour, in half an hour the vicar now, in 24 years, an entire year has been taken off of your headset. And then you add to that your solar say your combine your salad that takes an hour, a day and 24 years, two years have been taken off of your face app. So that's the value of the weird. That's one of the values of the weird when you're talking is preoccupied with the remembrance of a loss of hanaway utterly cannot be preoccupied with lying, backbiting, slandering,
false speech, etc. It can't be because it's involved. Even if your heart is in attentive use your tongue cannot sin.
Then * Allah says take from the night and from the time it contains a weird a specific routinized act of worship. He then the hedgehog rule Kudu
when the sleepers are slumbering man after he that is not negating the sleepers are not sleeping man after he dad is for students of Arabic is always either mad by the EDA either is that either so is increased for emphasis but or for pointing meter but it is not has no negative or negating meaning mentioned last week, the reverse Torah who either JIT tomahto hollyland So say you don't say you see him if you don't come there either. Magic tell if you don't come in either magic don't the heli and you see him when you come to him. Later on to * Dylan Can you can hook up a lady at the Cirilo and Hera, we're then either men, hedge, Kudu when the slumbers are sleeping, so you're doing you're
weird. You're up and you standing, you having intimate discourses with our last panel, while someone else is sleeping their night away militarily give us puffy men now I had a young puppy man then had a young lady who the one who sleeps until his entire life passes love him young men zillah out you will never reach the degrees of the righteous, nor have they exerted themselves yet
and the Jihad Ah, Ted, Ted is not exerted himself in a way appropriate for one who knows the right that Allah has over us. Well, Jay Hebrew filler he hochkar jihad, strive in the way of Allah as should rightfully be the case. And what right the law have over us we can begin to mention all of the blessings we enjoy.
And there's a right that Allah has over us in each and every one of those 100 Allah Allah is gentle or teeth, so he doesn't demand the full right. He just demands us to be serious and to do our very, very best this nominee.
handler.
So the one who sleeps their entire night doesn't stay up a little late to worship and get up a little early to worship. They will never reach the high ranks. lamium Allah will menza amend Zilla or your chair do nor will then be listed amongst those who strive and struggle against the laughs. Only then will l bear the athlete to car say to those who have true intellect the people of consciousness and awareness of Allah subhanho wa Taala cantaloupe will be an adu there is a treasure a great treasure waiting to present it will be presented to you at the time of the appointment. So if we knew
if this isn't true, tell me in the chat.
communicated some dispatch a pigeon or something with a note.
If we knew that there was a basket full of gold, and pearls, and emeralds, and silver, a big healthy basket
waiting for us and someone said, if you get up at 3am and go to such and such place, you'll find this basket size of a watermelon. Filled with gold, silver pearls, Emerald, diamonds, there's not a single one of us who will not set our alarm clock. Depending let's say this place was half an hour away for two in the morning. There's not a single one of us will not set their alarm clock for two in the morning, to make sure that they're at three to receive a basket
of precious stones and valuable metal.
What's more valuable, the pleasure of Allah subhanho wa Taala the love of Allah subhanho wa Taala for that basket of gold and silver, etc.
The Justice is no one of us, who would remain sleeping,
and not go to the place where that gift was promised. There's not a single one of us who would say that that gift is more valuable than the pleasure of a loss of animal. Then the love of Allah subhanho wa Taala
So, what are we doing? My dear brothers and sisters, so he goes on.
So say say to those who possess to intellect, the people have conscious awareness of a law a treasure is waiting to be presented to you at the appointed time.
These Knights brothers and sisters,
their appointment lies within those lights. Middle autologous tofi can taysir and Kabul a lot is covered. Everyone long lights filled with much, much much better.
When hamdu Lillah wa Salatu was Salam ala rasulillah and he was
so then he proceeds and he he mentions how the Prophet sallallahu wasallam and the Adi theme are enriched by nearest to Allah subhanho wa Taala by the remembrance of Allah subhanho wa Taala they're enriched for meaning food or drink.
They don't they don't need food or drink as people who don't have that newness. So he he discusses this particular issue. And we'll read a little from the text before we get to the poetic verses in sha Allah. So he says Willow can atlin hochiki and
a THON one ocana aklan hochiki en la Cana moon, a moon ammonia theon the CME was sahiwal Anna who is shadow tune Illa illa mercan Allahu taala you have to how Allah he faciem he will call what he Rabi. So he says if actually eating is something that would negate the fast is correct that this is an indication this is an issue. This points to the fact that what a lot most ties opened up for the servant in his or her fasting and in his or her privacy and intimacy with the law. This is a this is a point that many people overlook. The literal halwa is the color with ethercat, but also fasting itself as a whole, in the sense that we are alone with a loss of Hannah Tyler, in the knowledge of
rather with fasting or not.
And so only we know and Allah know, knows rather, if we're fasting,
no one no one else knows. And so when we step back, and we consider that this helps to cultivate an intimate relationship with Allah subhanho wa Taala. And this is one of the values of the fast like this is a secret between myself and my beloved. This is a secret between myself and my beloved. And so it's a form of kalwa I'm all alone in this knowledge with the last panel what
rather than fasting or not
and so he
says what a lot opens up for the servant during his fast or hers and is being isolated with his Lord or otherwise it he will be he knew
it he was decree he minimal aware delinquency, he will never had your code see, for the intimate discourses that he can have with his Lord and His remembrance, from the the spiritual resources that nearness, intimacy and the the gentle breezes of His Holiness. The kana Yeti will be daddy can Allah Calvi, Milan ma de fille? Isla heating Malacca robinia man your God v he will me he under Tommy will shut up in a lot.
And so that that those intimate discourses with Allah subhana wa Taala though his remembrance, the gentle breezes of His Holiness,
all of these things brings to the heart of the believer
degrees of divine knowledge and insight and get and lordly gifts that relieve the person from having to eat or to drink.
Because when when you're in love, you lose sight of time.
When the love is deep and passionate, you lose sight of time you skip meals, you're on the phone all night with your boob all evening with your beloved you forgot all about dinner, you're not thinking about dinner, just hearing the words of my beloved nurtures me and nourishes me. Forget dinner, like a dinner tomorrow. So this is this is the reality that the RT Finn and Asha team have a loss of Hello Tyler. So one of the ports let her ahaadeeth Amanda Crocker your shovelware on a panel you'll you'll hear on his Eddie levy which he can move on test property will be Walk, walk tilma theory Wolfie Kirby heavy is a shack admin killer, let's say the other woofer in the cooler more Fukudome
with the end mi D than a lot. The she has conversations of your remembrance that preoccupies her from food and distracts her from preparing for the journey. She has engaging upon your face a light that illuminate that illuminates her face, at the time of departure. And then at the time of departure, as the caravan has is the one urging on the camels. So she gets energy is urged on by the light of your face. If she complains of the fatigue of the journey, then the the spirit of advancement as brought from the spirit of advancement as promised, the promised spirit of advancement to her brings her alive at the time at the appointed time.
So the upshot is, when when we are reading lukewarm air, we're conversing with our Lord.
Or really, as we referred to earlier, in a previous session, we're reading love letters, communicators of love from our Lord. And this is why the one who is blessed
with an illuminated heart Can we look at an all day
The only thing that stopped them is the worldly responsibilities. There's no fatigue,
or one of the one of these people who claim to self soothe.
made a statement along these lines. Let's take a leaf bundle who fooled that there is no response religious responsibility after arriving, which is totally ridiculous, because no one arrived to the degree that the prophets of Allah while he was selling that arrived, and the Prophet sallallahu wasallam never claimed that he was no longer reading
viciously responsible in other words, he no longer needed to pray prayers for you peons who are still out there struggling against your nuts. But as for me, the Grand Poobah, I have arrived and compromised neffs therefore I no longer need that means
jubilate
by him a hula he said wassa wassa illa Sokka. He said they arrived All right, they arrived to *.
So that's not true. But there's the same calf lamb, fat
tech leaf.
There's another word from the same route that is true. So let's say lead tech letha bodil will fool false, now cool fatter by the Bible School. True. There is no burden
in worship after arriving, after we attain to the love of Allah subhana wa tada and nearness to Allah subhanho wa Taala there is no burden and love of Allah subhanho wa Taala there's no burden and undertaking our religious responsibilities. Because we're powered and fueled by love. We're powered and fueled by love. America give all of us tofu. And tastier. And qaboun
serve neuralgia router goes on to say advic roku to Hulu bill Addy theme that Victor is the staple food of those of us who have experienced the reality of Allah, you will believe him and your time he will sharabi it really relieves them of the need to eat and drink. Not to say that they permanently starve themselves. No, but the the drive. So they eat to sustain themselves
to keep themselves going. But the drive for full is of effaced
by the longing for their beloved. So they don't notice their hunger. Yes, they eat they drink some fast, all of the days of the year, year after year, except the days when it's impermissible to fast.
But generally they eat but the drive is not there. Because their their their their spirit possesses the greatest drive net their body, the body has been overcome by the Spirit. And the Spirit needs no food or drink. The spirit needs a loss of animal
so the spirit is pushing them towards a loss of animal
and they give the body its right but the drive the spirit and the drive. The Passion of the Spirit has overtaken the drives and appetites of the body.
So one of the ports that along those lines and probably either Obama to Elon, he will call T the road planner that you are my you you you prove you placate my first when I long for water and you are my staple provisions of staple food. If I desire for your my nourishment, when I desire for Oh Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah is there water and a law is there food or laws the objective than a law is this their longing Allah is the object of their passion karela from

and then leave them playing around in the empty sport and federal federally. militarily give us Kofi contae serum keyboards, a lot how to elevate all our stations, they'll have time to give us our high station.
So
the fruit of fasting
the most prominent food is toccoa
by the testimony of the verse in the Quran, which introduces several verses related to the fast Yeah, a lady in
cootie Valley
cannot cultiva Island lady in public La La Quinta Taku Are you believers fasting has been ordained for you, as it was ordained for those who preach
Did you an order that you will gain conscious awareness of a lot. And it's not just any empty consciousness or awareness. There are a lot of Muslims are caught up in this thing called Mindfulness we need mindfulness. Let's do a mindfulness exercise.
And so is a vicar without a law. This one mindfulness is on folks curious as to what I'm talking about, is basically a Buddhist stick, would historic form of Vicar, is dicker without a lot.
And so, if as they say, when I was growing up, there was a popular singer, who had a song at the time I was a Muslim, so I can listen to that stuff. But I related for more as the companions they will relate generally poet poetry to make a point, even the crafts or some point to the portrait levied as being truthful In any case, and that song was nothing from nothing leaves nothing, nothing from nothing leaves nothing. If you want to empty your mind of everything,
and attained to nothing this you will be left with nothing. If you fill your heart, with a loss upon Allah tala you will be you will gain everything, you will gain everything.
No can we are the moon if only they knew.
If only then Malaga was tofi NTC, or, Uncle boy, and bless us with Vicar,
Vicar.
Real
remembrance that fills our hearts with love. Because if you a few left and nothingness clear our mind is mindfulness.
If you as there is nothing as the object of your reflection, there is no foundation for love. You can't love nothing.
You can't love nothing.
But if as long as you're objective, then there's a foundation for love.
And a few have blessed with the love of a loss of Hanwha tile,
you will have bliss that you will never get. You never get from mindfulness you'll never get from LSD pologize for mentioning that you won't get from anything in this world, the joy and the bliss that you will get from the love of a loss of Hannah water.
But then need to has a foundation.
And if nothing, this is your goal, there's no foundation for love. You have boom you have where you should boom,
boom, we had Boehner they love him and he loves them. Now law give us tofik. So he shifts to the so we mentioned toccoa which is the objective of fasting, the halochem tahune. So but taqwa is, is the adornment of the heart
and not the adornment of the body. It's the adornment of the heart. So he starts near Roger, the author transitioning into a discussion of toccoa but tapa at a deeper level, at a deeper level. I'll give us tofik and bless us to attain taqwa. And so he says, in prose, whether you're Camelot whether you're cool as a human when you move as a unit boy, he will elaborate has been involved in bartering, elbow pain, that our beautification will not be complete until there is no beautification. And the no beautification is the foundation and attorney at the candy cobbler Hadley, we must empty out MTL, anything that's dirty, vile, inappropriate before we adorn ourselves
with outer or inner beauty.
So while a lot as a you know, VA Hill elaborate as a noble thing with Toby it was inevitable Allah atana are taught he when an asset below we will own our own body
and that is with repentance and with remorse, too.
hordes Allah subhanho wa Taala be along most high and cleaning himself from the filth and the dirt of the world of sin rather the filth and dirt of sin phenazine tomboy, he will mark Robin Barton in a windy shade. Because our beauty with inner desolation doesn't benefit in any way. So we could put a sandal pin on our lapel with a scarf over our shoulder. The guy had the best turban
cloak, the mantel get everything on the outside. But if our inside is corrupt that benefits nothing now you only shave Now you only shave that doesn't benefit us in any way.
Now law give us tofi look at a victor moraine the term rainy that Tim rain
the one with too shabby garments is pushed away from doors comes the knock on the door. Who would What are you doing here? bomb get away from my door. But the prophet pays him for his piety.
So the outer was shabby. Outer was dirty, but the inner was pure. That's what counts at the end of the day. Ideally we have both outer and inner beauty. Ideally, they'll give us tofik
perfect tayseer and coborn
so then he brings a line of poetry is LMR Olam yellow bus the urban Mina Taka, Taka Allah or Yan and when Kana kaseya nan hula Allah, He said of the person doesn't wear the garment of righteousness, he goes around naked, even if he's well clothed,
naked, even though he has closed
a lot give us tawfeeq and tastier COBOL
than him
in this regard.
The aid is not the day when we put on our beautiful clothes. The true a does he wear your best.
Before converted to Islam, I grew up in a Christian family
when it comes to them,
I grew up in a Christian family. And so when we went to church, they will say you have to wear your Sunday best suit for aid for Juma you shouldn't go to a Juma with a T shirt on ripped up jeans. We should work we should do our best COVID
we're going we're going to stand before the symbolic rep is representative of the profits of the law it will send them
the one who stands on the mimbar and a sense of standing on the member of Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam your poor mum Aparna who is taking standing in place of the Prophet salaallah while he will send them
so we're standing and we're sitting and listening to that person with shabby clothes is not appropriate brothers and sisters so many
lagunas tofik
show anyway but shibley Rahim Allah lot uncle of alginate
he mentions that the real aid is not the day that we put on nice clothes that's eat.
The real aid is when we adorn our hearts and our souls with elevated exalted
realities and character as he says the Apollo God and the mother enter like this. They say tomorrow's eat what are you going to work for Coca Cola at a certain Jupiter Jura. He said I'm going to wear a robe of of honor and and a quote
that involves a hearty drink of divine love for Corona sablon homophobe Bernie Toma patience and repentance are our poverty rather and poverty meaning
acknowledging our need for a loss or panic attack that poverty so I nodding our need for love and patience. These two are true these two are garments which we need them tattoo halben Yara ilva who is year there will do more
as a heart that sees intimacy with the law as ease and joy.
So the heart It's a energy drama these are the two holidays
RBC and tell all Habibi so the the most appropriate garments for you to meet your beloved with your metacell will we fit so bill lady holla is the day of the day that you visit you'll be loving
is the garment that
involves casting off on negativity and sin. And that will lead Matt Simone in the VIP, Teja, Emma D.
All of time. All of my time is as if I were in sin. If my Asperger if my hopes are not fulfilled.
Or I do not find my hopes my hopes are absent but in good English my hopes are not fulfilled. Well, Edelman koonta Lee Martin one Stannah and eat is just something that I've seen and heard about in the past, because going forward, after I've been enlightened and realize the true essence of things, either is not this physical thing that's eight at one level and is wonderful and is beautiful, and a shocker of a loss of underwater in the stag beer. For two well the two can be Roma and Emma had come well under contest Gruen. Some people say, the tech bureaux This is an indication of eight so and to cap the hula Allah had come that you extol the greatness of Allah for what he's guided to you to the
fast is guided us to faith and belief and affirming the sooner to the fast of Ramadan.
Well, I look contest guru and the shocker fasting the six days of showare why because as a shoe crew, min Jensen Alan. Sugar is categorical to the show Coleman Jensen young afford a Sugarman Jensen nearly sugar is categorical to the blessing. So we've been blessed and given this great opportunity with Ramadan to gain how much it unimaginable edger a cm Noren. Minna sober, fast and we mentioned this earlier session. Fasting is a manifestation of patience was the reward of patients in my office sabudana eduroam bill at enemy Rafa sabi Runa eduroam we already said the fasting the patient ones will be given their reckoning their reward rather with no numerical limits what's the
reward of fasting and our center to gosh bm 30 or Kala as a region
in Viva Zb all the actions undertaken by the child of Adam the reward is multiplied 10 times 700 times many times over and above that in I've often kathira and a law says except fasting that's mine
I will work this Serbian with it so fasting is exempted from those these could have been the Add of every action undertaken by the child of that and
love that reward is for them and those rewards how they have some limit will allow center to be actually on failure a survey me I did as one action has no numerical limits on its reward is lost CMF in hoovy when HTTP except fast as my who are the service for that that you know in the long run, so you don't
so it's the the clothing
that's the most important clothing for us smell Latina bless us to wear that called into take great pride in coding. And our time has expired a lot more slowly, slowly that and he was taught me
A woman well, so we do two more verses inshallah, along those same lines of moving beyond the physical and moving towards the spiritual. So he mentions a poet who said, Valley show many Sugarland see where who many surely. Now y'all may also fall under Coby however who Agnew now snow in Jaffa rock Cabell Avenue mini bed mini bed alone women who Mandy bed and LAN Allah. He says I have no preoccupation other than Him is preoccupied with a loss.
Well, we I have absolutely no preoccupation. And the critic will never turn my heart away from his love.
The Critic will never turn my heart away from his love.
And that love is expressed through obedience. So the critic yo Why are you praying all the time? You need to get some sleep ladies stay up. so late. Why do you get up so early? You need to get sleep yada yada yada.
Now you asked for an OB however, who Avenue later.
Three later ADO and avalonia D. Finally, my critic knew what I know and experienced what I experienced.
Then they would be in the same boat I'm in and they'd be criticizing themselves. man asked no and Jeff, our carbon Emmylou. What am I going What will I do if I'm treated harshly on my hopes are unfulfilled
many bad alone women who many better Lou.
He can do without me. He has other than me. But I have none other than him. Then in Lola
Allah can do without us. He has other servants. But we can't do without
nanhu Um, so And that, I think is very powerful and beautiful note, return any questions or comments? as a viewer one viewer viewer by the name of Zane here and Mackey, who wants who says this? Who remembers that he mentioned and share when he was a child lash Allah, Allah selon B, CD is here and the key vertical or vertical with a carbon income.
A thermal cola cooler off the web. Acid Energizer Dory combiner the head the labor to mubaraka. Now, what are signs that we can proceed to know whether NSF does crop or if our inner self is pure?
Number one is
what does our inner self What is it preoccupied with? To the preoccupied with the laws are preoccupied with dunya to the extent that it's preoccupied with Allah subhanho wa Taala, then it's pure. And preoccupation with the law doesn't just mean constantly Vicar that constantly decreed that that's good, a good thing happens over time. But it also means thinking about our shorter obligations. So as if you find out someone is sick, do you make plans to visit them? If you can't do you make do with them, and pray for them as a sharp allegation. So
the combination of being preoccupied with a law preoccupied with
doing the things and planning the things necessary to fulfill our obligations, to the extent that we're constantly preoccupied with those things are hard is pure. And to the extent that we're not in a heart can experience various degrees of impurity. can you offer advice for someone whose health challenges prevent them from waking up early for Tanju?
Thank Allah subhanho wa Taala for the blessing you do enjoy
and because and be patient with your health challenges and maintain a good opinion of Allah, I mentioned today and Juma cookbook, Kumar
islamically. It was yesterday, here on the East Coast, that if your health for example, this is somewhat related to this particular question prevents you from fasting
Then just thank Allah for the food that you're eating while you're not fasting
and that elevates you to the station of the faster. So there's a hadith
that's attributed to the Prophet sallallahu sallam. It might be sound but I haven't looked into it so I'll just say it's attributed to the Prophet sallallahu wasallam
as
a time will add time will add time will shake you.
Beeman Zilla to demand Zilla to saw him was a saw a mood simas saw in the sob year so the one who's eating and thinking a lot was a titan was a titan Shaq you was eating and thanking them all for their full be Manzella to saw in the saw view is in the same rank as the one page of E fasting and patiently enduring the rigors of the fast. So if you help we call it so is similar. This is just the nighttime challenge the daytime challenge the ones once health prevents them from fasting, then through their sugar, then the men Zilla or the station and rank of the one who was fasting if your nighttime challenges health challenges prevent you from you. Then think Allah subhanho wa Taala for
those health aspects of health you do enjoy you still have a sound mind?
You have you have a sound heart despite whatever might be affecting you. And therefore
your sugar elevates you to the rank of the one who's praying
as you bundle Emeril movement in the umbra hula hula higher well I said that it can be I had an inland movement the unbelievers affairs amazing
all these affairs good so we says all good if you believe with us too. It's all good.
In the envelope, hula hula hoop
that's only for the Muslim Malaysia Daddy, Daddy candy, I had an inner little movement
in a saw that sorrow shakar off I cannot clear on that. If some good befalls him or her they thank Allah for that good and that's best for them when I saw that, who dourado sabratha kana, higher Allah and have some difficulty harmful, painful things before them that befalls him or her. They patiently endure it and that's best for them. So just thank Allah for the health you enjoy. thank Allah for food. thank Allah for the many blessings and bounties you have an we pray that that through your shocker. You'll be elevated to the status of the call
as cryptocurrency Allah, Allah Allah, I haven't looked into nor been consulted on Mufti, so I cannot tell you have cryptic crypto COVID is Hello. If I was Superman, I could tell you kryptonite is hard on
the hitter will kill you.
But I'm not Superman. So I can't comment on kryptonite either. So hopefully I can look into the issue inshallah. How do we know if we are working too much and need to focus on thicker and thicker
if your basic needs are met, and then you and your family is living in a dignified fashion, and you still spending much of your time to get even more and you find yourself not able to fulfill the levels of vigor and physical remembrance of Allah concentration that you feel is appropriate for yourself, then you work in too much you need to scale back.
because not a lot of genuine incident and the ill will do not feel the journey human that they wish should be. So like I mentioned Sheree obligations Intel that we take care of our families. But if our family's needs are met the profits of itself so low it will send them a pray that his livelihood will be sufficiency. So they'll pray for abundance and access and exist exuberance he prayed for sufficiency. So my Lord blesses on sufficiency and some of us have
Access and that's good if it doesn't prevent us from fulfilling our rights of prayer, Vicar figure etc. So because we need wealth, we need someone who can pay a lot of Zakat believe people can can pay for zaytuna College see my zaytuna College tree right there, we need people to pay for zaytuna College. And so that requires an excess in an abundant. But even then, if those people are not having time to adequately worship Allah and they're missing prayers, and they never pick up their core, and they should consider some adjustments in their lifestyle luggages trophy would it be better to be patient regarding horse things said by unbelievers? How should we react to such as a
real recent blasphemous incidents? I don't follow the news in Ramadan, I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. But I can generally say Listen, if if if the enemies of Islam know they could like us Muslims like a Yo Yo, yo, yo, you throw it down, it goes down, up,
down, up, walk the dog,
run the world, if they can have us on a string responding to the every move, then we will never do anything positive.
And so we should just ignore that and deputed to a lot, and that is what Allah wants us to do. So we're in a meccan period of sorts. We're a small minority as the Muslim war in Mecca.
We don't have power and influence in our society relatively speaking. Most of the politicians who represent Muslims that they're not representing Muslim, they're representing
you know, the female God or they're representing the LGBTQ tea community. I'm not saying that to denigrate that community I'm just saying who most of those politicians are representing.
And so
in reality and name they might say I'm the Muslim representative but in reality so we're relatively powerless so we're in a mechon situation and what did a lot of the Muslims in essence with this already women can be will be had that Hadith Varney woman kolok to Haider ko JAL to level man do the web any issue who want to head to the hotel hear from your partner Oh, and as he killed Kennedy area to leave it to law Varney when will convene.

So, trust in Allah, Allah is in control

and remain conscious and Cognizant and aware of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And the right that Allah has over you that in that he came in as male or more that's from prophetic resolve in your affair. That's what we suppose that's my advice. That's my advice, brothers and sisters, leave it to a law and get on what you're doing. And look, one of the one of the vilest enemies of Allah, one of the advisors of garbage visitors.
And the European, anti muslim.
racist, one of his closest advisors became Muslim.
And how did he become Muslim?
He was doing research to write the ultimate book to crush us now months and fall, like after my book, there won't be the need for any other book, to put this Islamic thing to rest. And as he was researching is that Wait a minute,
this is what these people are doing, isn't this.
What I've been taught isn't this.
And then he became Muslim. And in the you know what the clincher was?
the clincher was when the Prophet salla Selim forgave hint.
And then she became just a believer, and he had no animosity. This was the woman who had paid the assassin to kill his beloved uncle. This is a woman who chewed on the liver of his uncle after disassembling him, having him disavowed on the battlefield.
This is the woman who was egging on these anti muslim campaigns.
And she becomes Muslim the Prophet is like she never did anything. He said, this has to be a messenger from Allah because a normal human being would not have this degree of forgiveness.
Then * Allah lot.
Varney when can leaving, so when a law says leave me with those be liars. Those slanders those blasphemers. He can do whatever he wants. So it doesn't mean leave a lot to wipe them out. Leave a lot of bring them to us have them
