As began as usual this chapter, which is called Babu taqwa, the

00:01:14 --> 00:01:20

chapter of Taqwa. He began that this chapter with quoting some

00:01:21 --> 00:01:24

ayat of the Quran related to the chapter.

00:01:27 --> 00:01:31

The first is that Mr. Manoli Rama Allah is quoted in this chapter or

00:01:31 --> 00:01:35

under this heading is yeah, you're Latina? I'm an otaku? La haka

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

Ducati.

00:01:39 --> 00:01:43

The ayah from Surah Anya Imran, in which Allah subhanahu wa taala

00:01:43 --> 00:01:48

says are you who believed it double Allah fear Allah. Have the

00:01:48 --> 00:01:55

Taqwa of Allah haka Ducati, as he will Jalali will Ekrem molekule

00:01:55 --> 00:02:01

molk. A Holic Rasul deserves to be feared.

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

The Taqwa

00:02:05 --> 00:02:12

the linguistic meaning of the word Taqwa is to protect.

00:02:14 --> 00:02:17

And Taqwa is called Taqwa because

00:02:18 --> 00:02:24

the person performs good deeds in order to protect himself from the

00:02:24 --> 00:02:28

fire of *. And from the punishment of Allah Azza wa Jalla

00:02:28 --> 00:02:28

you become

00:02:29 --> 00:02:36

anything that you do, according to the teaching of Allah and the

00:02:36 --> 00:02:40

teachings of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam. In order to

00:02:40 --> 00:02:45

protect yourself, from the fire of *, it is gold, taqwa.

00:02:47 --> 00:02:51

When we offer our five daily prayers, it is part of the taqwa

00:02:51 --> 00:02:55

it is the demonstration of the taqwa or it is the result of the

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

taqwa as well.

00:02:58 --> 00:03:02

When we read Quran, we remember Allah subhanho wa Taala we make

00:03:02 --> 00:03:07

dua, and we try our best to refrain from committing sins,

00:03:07 --> 00:03:15

anything and everything that you do, according to the teaching of

00:03:15 --> 00:03:18

Allah and the teachings of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa

00:03:18 --> 00:03:22

sallam in order to protect yourself and your soul, from the

00:03:22 --> 00:03:25

punishment of Allah Allah Jalla calamities called Taqwa.

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

Sometime in the Quran, we find that Allah Azza wa Jalla in Quran

00:03:29 --> 00:03:35

has used the word bear and Taqwa together as Allah says what I

00:03:35 --> 00:03:37

want. I'll be the one Taqwa.

00:03:39 --> 00:03:43

cooperate with each other, help each other assist each other.

00:03:44 --> 00:03:50

For beer and Taqwa, on the matters of beer and Taqwa beer, means

00:03:50 --> 00:03:58

piety and Taqwa is usually also translated as piety. But when bear

00:03:58 --> 00:04:04

and Taqwa Both words are used together, then bear refers to

00:04:04 --> 00:04:09

performing good deeds. And Toccoa refers to refraining from

00:04:09 --> 00:04:16

committing sins. So there are two elements. One is to perform good

00:04:16 --> 00:04:20

deeds. And the second one is, taqwa, which is to refrain and

00:04:20 --> 00:04:22

abstain from committing sins.

00:04:23 --> 00:04:30

But when the word Taqwa is used without the word bear, then it

00:04:30 --> 00:04:36

includes both. Taqwa includes performing good deeds, because you

00:04:36 --> 00:04:40

do perform good deeds in order to protect yourself and safeguard

00:04:40 --> 00:04:45

yourself from the disobedience of Allah who will generally Crom and

00:04:45 --> 00:04:49

also you protect yourself and you safeguard yourself from the fire

00:04:49 --> 00:04:50

of *.

00:04:51 --> 00:04:55

And you also at the same time, refrain and abstain from

00:04:55 --> 00:04:59

committing sins in order to keep yourself safe.

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

and protected from the punishment of Allah will generally recall.

00:05:05 --> 00:05:10

And Taqwa is something that has repeatedly mentioned in the Quran.

00:05:10 --> 00:05:16

Allah subhanahu wa taala has mentioned it in multiple times.

00:05:16 --> 00:05:22

And Allah subhanho wa Taala has also praised those who have Taqwa.

00:05:24 --> 00:05:27

And when we study the hadith of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi

00:05:27 --> 00:05:31

salam, we come to know that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa

00:05:31 --> 00:05:38

sallam also has emphasized greatly on this topic Taqwa. Allahu Allah

00:05:38 --> 00:05:42

Allah Karim says in the Quran in surah Nisa, wala pada was slain

00:05:42 --> 00:05:47

Alladhina O'Toole Kitab Amin publikum. What iya come and it

00:05:47 --> 00:05:52

took Allah. Allah says we instructed you and those who were

00:05:52 --> 00:05:56

before you, those people who are given books, Torah and Injeel

00:05:56 --> 00:06:01

before you, we instructed all of you and it Akula that you must

00:06:01 --> 00:06:02

have the Taqwa of Allah.

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

And sometime the word Taqwa is translated as being conscious of

00:06:08 --> 00:06:12

Allah Bucha Allah you kromm Being mindful of Allah subhanho wa

00:06:12 --> 00:06:13

taala.

00:06:14 --> 00:06:22

So, taqwa is sometime the scholars have said Taqwa is the other name

00:06:22 --> 00:06:26

of Islam. The whole region of Islam, is taqwa.

00:06:28 --> 00:06:31

Your practice of Islam you're practicing of the religion of

00:06:31 --> 00:06:36

Islam is called taqwa, performing good deeds, and refraining and

00:06:36 --> 00:06:40

abstaining from committing sins. It's called Taqwa. So Allah Allah

00:06:40 --> 00:06:45

Jalla Nukem says in the Quran, yah yah Latina I'm an otaku, la haka,

00:06:45 --> 00:06:50

Ducati, or you will believed, have the Taqwa of Allah as he will

00:06:50 --> 00:06:53

generally be kromm deserves to be feared

00:06:54 --> 00:06:59

him have the fear of Allah fear Allah subhanahu wa taala as he

00:06:59 --> 00:07:00

deserves to be feared,

00:07:01 --> 00:07:03

according to His Majesty,

00:07:04 --> 00:07:09

as he will July newly crowned deserves, that you have fear and

00:07:09 --> 00:07:14

you have Taqwa of him SubhanaHu wa Tada. And when this idea was

00:07:14 --> 00:07:17

revealed some of the companions that one Allah He and image

00:07:17 --> 00:07:22

Marine, they were worried. And they asked the Prophet sallallahu

00:07:22 --> 00:07:27

alayhi wa salam, O Messenger of Allah, how can we make sure that

00:07:27 --> 00:07:34

we, that we feel Allah subhanahu wa taala the way he subhanho wa

00:07:34 --> 00:07:36

Taala according to His Majesty

00:07:38 --> 00:07:43

how can we make sure that we feel Allah as he Subhanahu wa Taala

00:07:43 --> 00:07:44

deserves to be feared.

00:07:45 --> 00:07:50

And this is something that we think that we cannot achieve.

00:07:52 --> 00:07:58

Regardless of the goodies that we perform, and regardless of our

00:07:58 --> 00:08:02

efforts that we make in order to abstain from committing sins,

00:08:03 --> 00:08:10

we think that we cannot fear Allah subhanho wa Taala as he subhanho

00:08:10 --> 00:08:14

wa Taala himself deserves to be feared. So how can we achieve this

00:08:14 --> 00:08:18

and this is something that we think we cannot achieve.

00:08:19 --> 00:08:24

Then Allah subhanho wa Taala revealed another area, which is in

00:08:24 --> 00:08:29

surah lavabo, in which Allah subhanho wa Taala said, Fatah Kula

00:08:29 --> 00:08:36

mustard. Don't fear Allah, as far as you can. Fear Allah as much as

00:08:36 --> 00:08:40

you can. Fear Allah as much as you are able to.

00:08:42 --> 00:08:47

Meaning you must make efforts you must try your best to have the

00:08:47 --> 00:08:53

fear of Allah. Whatever you do, whatever you say, have the fear of

00:08:53 --> 00:08:56

Allah and the Taqwa of Allah subhanahu wa taala in your heart

00:08:56 --> 00:08:57

and your mind.

00:08:58 --> 00:09:03

So for Takala Mr. DataMan, the companion say when this ayah was

00:09:03 --> 00:09:10

revealed, we were relieved and we had a bit of relief that at least

00:09:10 --> 00:09:14

we are required to fear Allah subhanho wa Taala according to our

00:09:14 --> 00:09:15

ability,

00:09:16 --> 00:09:20

you may have more ability to have the Taqwa of Allah subhanahu wa

00:09:20 --> 00:09:26

taala more than I have. So every one of us, we have different

00:09:26 --> 00:09:30

abilities when it comes to the Taqwa of Allah Dolcetto because as

00:09:30 --> 00:09:35

you said, taqwa is the name of practicing Islam. So not every

00:09:35 --> 00:09:40

single Muslim is at the same level. We are not all at the same

00:09:40 --> 00:09:43

level when it comes to the practice of the religion of Islam.

00:09:45 --> 00:09:49

So when we are not on the same level, we cannot be in the same

00:09:49 --> 00:09:50

level of the taqwa.

00:09:51 --> 00:09:54

So our abilities differ from each other.

00:09:55 --> 00:10:00

So Allah subhanahu wa taala said for Tapachula Mr. Bottom fear

00:10:00 --> 00:10:01

Allah as much as you can.

00:10:03 --> 00:10:07

But when we read this idea and we ponder and reflect on this idea,

00:10:08 --> 00:10:14

we should not be deceived by shaitan that we take this idea as

00:10:14 --> 00:10:16

an excuse for ourselves.

00:10:17 --> 00:10:21

Because we should bear in mind that we cannot deceive Allah.

00:10:23 --> 00:10:26

We can deceive people, people around us,

00:10:28 --> 00:10:30

but we cannot deceive Allah.

00:10:31 --> 00:10:35

And if you think that you can deceive Allah, then this is a sign

00:10:35 --> 00:10:39

of hypocrisy and NIF Ark. As Allah says in Surah Al Baqarah, you ha

00:10:39 --> 00:10:43

their own allah how Alladhina amanu? The Munna few Khun are

00:10:43 --> 00:10:48

those who try to deceive Allah and they try to deceive the believers.

00:10:49 --> 00:10:52

Why am I the owner Illa and for some, but in reality, they are

00:10:52 --> 00:10:54

deceiving themselves.

00:10:56 --> 00:11:00

So when you say that you try your best to practice the religion of

00:11:00 --> 00:11:00

Islam.

00:11:02 --> 00:11:06

And take a clear example of establishing your five daily

00:11:06 --> 00:11:09

prayers. You advise someone

00:11:10 --> 00:11:14

that you must pray five times a day and the person says, I try my

00:11:14 --> 00:11:18

best. I try my best to pray all five daily prayers.

00:11:20 --> 00:11:23

That this mean that the person has the Taqwa of Allah know if the

00:11:23 --> 00:11:27

person does not pray all five daily prayers.

00:11:28 --> 00:11:33

He is a liar in his statement that I'm trying my best.

00:11:34 --> 00:11:37

Because this is something that you are obliged to do.

00:11:38 --> 00:11:43

For Taboola Mr. Barton does not mean that you choose you pick and

00:11:43 --> 00:11:48

choose from within the religion of Islam. You do whatever pleases you

00:11:48 --> 00:11:52

and whatever you find easy for yourself, and you abandon and

00:11:52 --> 00:11:56

leave whatever you find difficult for yourself. No for tabula rasa

00:11:56 --> 00:12:01

Mustapa two means that you fulfill all the obligations of Allah that

00:12:01 --> 00:12:04

inshallah you will come when it comes to five daily prayers. You

00:12:04 --> 00:12:10

must pray. Yes, in addition to this, you can say that I try my

00:12:10 --> 00:12:16

best to concentrate in my salah. I try my best to perform my pm ruku

00:12:16 --> 00:12:19

sudo to shuffled everything, according to the Sunnah of

00:12:19 --> 00:12:23

Rasulullah sallallahu. This is where you can say for tabula Mr

00:12:23 --> 00:12:27

bottom that I have the fear of Allah and I have the Taqwa of

00:12:27 --> 00:12:29

Allah as much as I can,

00:12:30 --> 00:12:36

but to abandon some of the obligations. And then you say that

00:12:36 --> 00:12:40

I'm trying my best, this is not true and this is not correct. For

00:12:40 --> 00:12:45

tabula rasa, Mr. Bartone, fear Allah as much as you can. And

00:12:45 --> 00:12:49

likewise when it comes to abstaining from committing sins,

00:12:51 --> 00:12:55

then whatever Allah subhanho wa Taala has made haram for you, you

00:12:55 --> 00:12:58

must stay, you must stay away from it.

00:12:59 --> 00:13:04

And it is an obligation you must stay away from it. You cannot

00:13:04 --> 00:13:10

continue committing haram and then you say, I try my best to fear

00:13:10 --> 00:13:12

Allah. No, this is not the fear.

00:13:13 --> 00:13:17

You did not actually understand the meaning of the taqwa. Taku

00:13:17 --> 00:13:22

actually means that you perform good deeds and particularly you

00:13:22 --> 00:13:26

fulfill your obligations to Allah subhanahu wa taala. And at the

00:13:26 --> 00:13:32

same time, you stay away from all types of haram. From stating haram

00:13:32 --> 00:13:36

from uttering haram from speaking haram, from watching haram from

00:13:36 --> 00:13:40

earning haram from eating haram from drinking haram.

00:13:42 --> 00:13:46

So you have to stay away from it. And then in order to stay away

00:13:46 --> 00:13:52

from all types of haram, the means that you take and the ways that

00:13:52 --> 00:13:56

you take these are the ways that you can say that I try my best to

00:13:56 --> 00:14:00

take this way or that way in order to protect myself from committing

00:14:00 --> 00:14:06

sins. So first up Allah Mr. Bottom does not mean that you take this

00:14:06 --> 00:14:08

either as an excuse.

00:14:09 --> 00:14:15

Rather, Allah subhanahu wa taala has instructed us many times in

00:14:15 --> 00:14:19

the Quran and this is the order from Allah subhanho wa Taala it

00:14:19 --> 00:14:25

Taku Taku eatable fear Allah have the Taqwa of Allah. The Prophet

00:14:25 --> 00:14:30

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam used to include certain verses of the

00:14:30 --> 00:14:32

Quran in His service.

00:14:33 --> 00:14:37

And all those verses contain one common message that message of the

00:14:37 --> 00:14:41

Taqwa of Allah, He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would recite the

00:14:41 --> 00:14:46

football that is known as hauteville Hajah. And in that

00:14:46 --> 00:14:50

huzzah he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and you can say almost in

00:14:50 --> 00:14:54

every single photo of the Juma the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa

00:14:54 --> 00:15:00

sallam would repeat these ayat when I am from Surah, Allah Allah

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

On yet this is the iron that Mr Manoj Ramallah is caught in this

00:15:03 --> 00:15:07

chapter yeah yeah hello Dina Armando tabula hubco Ducati Are

00:15:07 --> 00:15:12

you believe fear Allah as he Subhanahu wa Taala deserves to be

00:15:12 --> 00:15:16

feared. And then another idea, which is the first I have certain

00:15:16 --> 00:15:21

Nyssa Johanna suta, hoorah back home, all people

00:15:22 --> 00:15:26

Fear your Lord Allah the Halacha co Minassian Wahida, the one who

00:15:26 --> 00:15:31

has created you from one single soul, and then he would also

00:15:31 --> 00:15:36

include two verses from Surah Al Ahzab. Yeah, are you hola Dina

00:15:36 --> 00:15:41

Amanita Kula wa Kulu colon sadita. Or you will believe fear Allah had

00:15:41 --> 00:15:46

the Taqwa of Allah. Hulu colon said either and always be

00:15:46 --> 00:15:54

straightforward, clear words and statements and always speak truth.

00:15:54 --> 00:15:59

If you do so, you select like Kamala Khan, welfare la creme de

00:15:59 --> 00:16:04

novo. Allah subhanahu wa taala will rectify all of your affairs

00:16:04 --> 00:16:08

00:16:08 --> 00:16:12

subhanahu wa taala will forgive all of your sins. Oh my nuclear

Allah Allah rasool Allah who forgot the FISA Fosun Halima and

00:16:15 --> 00:16:18

whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa

00:16:18 --> 00:16:22

sallam that indeed he has achieved a great success.

00:16:24 --> 00:16:28

So Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would include these verses

00:16:28 --> 00:16:34

that contain this message it Taku and Taqwa fear Allah. So this is

00:16:34 --> 00:16:39

something that is not an optional. Rather, this is an obligation upon

00:16:39 --> 00:16:43

every single Muslim that we must have the Taqwa of Allah Bucha

00:16:43 --> 00:16:49

Allah and He will kromm And then it is the Mercy of Allah. That he

00:16:49 --> 00:16:54

00:16:54 --> 00:16:59

of Allah, as Allah said in these ayat, that Rasulullah sallallahu

00:16:59 --> 00:17:02

Sallam used to recite in his football. Yeah, you will ladina

00:17:02 --> 00:17:06

Amanu tabula rasa Kulu Holand Cydia or you will believe fear

00:17:06 --> 00:17:11

Allah and always speak truth and say straightforward statements and

00:17:11 --> 00:17:16

words. If you do so, you select Allah Kumar Allah Karim. Allah

00:17:16 --> 00:17:19

will rectify and correct all of your matters.

00:17:21 --> 00:17:24

And this is the benefit of the taqwa. If you have the Taqwa of

00:17:24 --> 00:17:28

00:17:28 --> 00:17:34

Allah, and you certainly believe, with your cane and certainty that

will channel Vikram on the Day of Judgment with regards to your

speak anything before you utter anything, you will think and you

00:17:51 --> 00:17:54

will have in mind that you are going to be held accountable

00:17:54 --> 00:17:57

before Allah will generally cron with regards to the statement that

00:17:57 --> 00:17:58

you are going to utter.

00:18:00 --> 00:18:04

Before you do any action, you will have in your mind that Allah

00:18:04 --> 00:18:08

subhanahu wa taala is going to hold you to account on the day of

00:18:08 --> 00:18:10

judgment with regards to this particular action.

00:18:12 --> 00:18:18

And if you have the Taqwa of Allah, then Allah subhanahu wa

ability that you stay away from haram and you continue doing good

00:18:35 --> 00:18:39

deeds. And Allah subhanho wa Taala will sort out all of your matters.

00:18:40 --> 00:18:44

We will feel welcome to Aruba calm, and because of that taqwa,

00:18:45 --> 00:18:49

the taqwa the consciousness of Allah subhanahu wa taala. Being

00:18:49 --> 00:18:55

mindful of Allah, all the time because of this attitude. Because

00:18:55 --> 00:19:00

of this behavior. Allah subhanho wa Taala will continue forgiving

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

your sins.

00:19:02 --> 00:19:06

Because if you have taqwa, you will perform good deeds, and

00:19:06 --> 00:19:11

performing good deeds will expiate all of your sins. Part of the

00:19:11 --> 00:19:16

taqwa or the requirement of the turquoise 275 daily prayers, and

00:19:16 --> 00:19:18

what Rasulullah sallallahu sallam said with regards to the five

00:19:18 --> 00:19:23

daily prayers, that all five daily prayers they expiate and wash out

00:19:23 --> 00:19:26

the sense of the person on a daily basis.

00:19:28 --> 00:19:31

So this is the benefit of the taqwa you slept Allah Kumar, Amala

00:19:31 --> 00:19:36

como Fidlock Rubicon and the Allah subhanahu wa taala also says in

00:19:36 --> 00:19:41

another ayah, which is in surah, to pull up uomini Attila Hijjah,

00:19:41 --> 00:19:45

Allah Houma. Faraja Whoever fears Allah, Allahu Maharaja Allah

00:19:45 --> 00:19:51

subhanahu wa taala makes for him a way out from calamities and

00:19:51 --> 00:19:52

hardships and difficulties.

00:19:53 --> 00:19:58

When you are afflicted by calamities by problems, by

00:19:58 --> 00:19:59

hardships if you

00:20:00 --> 00:20:06

continue having the Taqwa of Allah. And even in the times of

00:20:06 --> 00:20:10

hardships and difficulties you do not try to find shortcuts or do

00:20:10 --> 00:20:16

something that is haram. Rather, you remain conscious of Allah you

00:20:16 --> 00:20:20

remain mindful of Allah. You continue worshiping Allah you

00:20:20 --> 00:20:23

connect yourself to Allah Azza wa Jalla Quran then you get your

00:20:23 --> 00:20:26

Allahu Maharajah. This is the Promise of Allah that Allah

00:20:26 --> 00:20:30

subhanahu wa taala makes way out for you.

00:20:32 --> 00:20:35

But the condition is that you must be sincere with Allah subhanahu wa

00:20:36 --> 00:20:39

and if you are not sincere with Allah Azza wa Jalla Luke rom if

00:20:39 --> 00:20:43

you are sincere to Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, then Allah

00:20:43 --> 00:20:45

subhanahu wa taala will not help you.

00:20:47 --> 00:20:51

And I just remember yesterday I had a conversation with the

00:20:51 --> 00:20:51

brother

00:20:53 --> 00:20:58

who was telling his personal story with regards to and he obviously

00:20:58 --> 00:21:03

the statement of Allah subhanahu wa taala is clear, no doubt in it.

00:21:04 --> 00:21:09

The problem comes from ourselves when we actually do not truly act

00:21:09 --> 00:21:11

upon the ayat of the Quran.

00:21:13 --> 00:21:19

And we focus on the result and we say that I have tried but I do not

00:21:19 --> 00:21:23

find any way out from this problem. I want to get out of

00:21:23 --> 00:21:23

haram.

00:21:25 --> 00:21:29

I want to get out of interest in Haram that any or any haram that

00:21:29 --> 00:21:34

I'm involved with, I want to get out of it. But I cannot find a way

00:21:34 --> 00:21:34

out.

00:21:36 --> 00:21:41

If you cannot find a way out then you should be questioning your

00:21:42 --> 00:21:46

taqwa your iman what kind of Iman and Taqwa you hold

00:21:48 --> 00:21:51

and this brother actually he was involved in Haram actually in

00:21:51 --> 00:21:57

mortgage. As you know, mortgage involves interest in Haram. And he

00:21:57 --> 00:22:02

says and he was saying that after I have gone through some

00:22:02 --> 00:22:09

hardships, but I remained firm and wallah, he people you know, this

00:22:09 --> 00:22:12

was his statement, his words, he says, people do not actually

00:22:12 --> 00:22:16

understand the meaning of the taqwa and the people do not know

00:22:16 --> 00:22:22

what the baraka is. He says, I personally have witnessed this.

00:22:23 --> 00:22:29

And actually, a, you know, he he actually had bought a house on

00:22:29 --> 00:22:31

mortgage many years ago.

00:22:32 --> 00:22:36

And he wanted to rent obviously, when he bought it, he did not

00:22:37 --> 00:22:39

fully practice the religion of Islam or he did not know the

00:22:39 --> 00:22:42

ruling or someone may have convinced him that it is

00:22:42 --> 00:22:46

permissible to purchase one house on mortgage, as this is one of the

00:22:46 --> 00:22:50

common fatwas. Nowadays, it is permissible to purchase one. Okay,

00:22:50 --> 00:22:57

anyway, so, he bought it but after that, after a few years, he

00:22:57 --> 00:23:01

realized that he's committed because whatever he was earning,

00:23:01 --> 00:23:03

he used to pay towards paying the mortgage.

00:23:04 --> 00:23:10

And he says that I did not find any peace and quality in my heart,

00:23:10 --> 00:23:14

even when I used to come to the masjid to offer salah. I used to

00:23:14 --> 00:23:19

blame myself that I'm a hypocrite. I'm I'm gonna fit. On one hand,

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

I'm committing a sin on a daily basis on a monthly basis. And then

00:23:23 --> 00:23:27

I stand before Allah asking Allah's forgiveness, oh, ALLAH

00:23:27 --> 00:23:32

forgive my sins, and I'm not ready to give up that sin. So he says, I

00:23:32 --> 00:23:38

have decided, along with my wife, we both decided that we are going

00:23:38 --> 00:23:43

to sell the house, no matter even if we lose, even if we lose, we

00:23:43 --> 00:23:48

have decided. And then he actively started looking for a buyer.

00:23:49 --> 00:23:52

He wanted to remain within the property and he was actually

00:23:52 --> 00:23:57

looking for a buyer who could allow him to stay within the house

00:23:57 --> 00:24:02

and continue paying him the rent. And he says, One day,

00:24:03 --> 00:24:08

he prayed, he made dua, and he said, Oh Allah, you know, my heart

00:24:08 --> 00:24:12

that I sincerely want to get out of this problem. Will Allah help?

00:24:13 --> 00:24:17

And then he says, After offering my salah and dua, I went to the

00:24:17 --> 00:24:21

solicitor, I said, this is my situation, I'm looking for a buyer

00:24:22 --> 00:24:26

who can buy my house and he can allow me to remain within the

00:24:26 --> 00:24:30

house so that I can continue paying the rent. And when he says

00:24:30 --> 00:24:34

when I spoke to the solicitor solicitor straightaway, he said, I

00:24:34 --> 00:24:37

am actually looking for such a buyer. Also actually I'm looking

00:24:37 --> 00:24:42

for such a person who can sell the property. So let's I have the

00:24:42 --> 00:24:46

buyer already. So let's do it and he says within one month,

00:24:46 --> 00:24:50

everything was completed. And he says as soon as I got out of this

00:24:50 --> 00:24:54

problem, Allah subhanahu wa Tada increased my risk.

00:24:55 --> 00:25:00

Allah increase my risk. And this will Allah says warming Attila.

00:25:00 --> 00:25:04

Ah yeah Allah homophone and he says, Then I realized what the

00:25:04 --> 00:25:08

baraka and the blessing of Allah in the provision are in the risk

00:25:08 --> 00:25:09

base.

00:25:10 --> 00:25:15

And then from that day, he says, I'm always, you know, with

00:25:15 --> 00:25:20

complete peace of mind and I have Nina and trunk quality in my

00:25:20 --> 00:25:22

heart, and I'm very happy.

00:25:24 --> 00:25:29

And then he started a business, obviously, he, he sold his house

00:25:29 --> 00:25:33

and then he started a business. Allah subhanahu wa taala, granted

00:25:33 --> 00:25:38

him Baraka in his business. And he says, I don't know how Allah

00:25:38 --> 00:25:41

Subhanallah I did not have no expertise in running their

00:25:41 --> 00:25:46

business. I do not have even qualification in business

00:25:46 --> 00:25:50

management or this and that. But Allah subhanahu wa taala has

00:25:50 --> 00:25:53

increased my risk. And this is something that I personally have

00:25:53 --> 00:25:57

witnessed, and it's only one story and there are many stories like

00:25:57 --> 00:26:03

this. People who do put their work and their trust in Allah subhanahu

00:26:03 --> 00:26:07

wata Allah, Allah subhanho wa Taala fulfills His promise. Why am

00:26:07 --> 00:26:12

I in yet que la jolla Jalla Houma kraja whoever truly fears Allah,

00:26:13 --> 00:26:16

Allah does make a way out for him.

00:26:18 --> 00:26:20

But look at the context is.

00:26:21 --> 00:26:25

The first thing is you need to make effort from you and first,

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

Romania tequila, you have to show your taqwa for Allah. You have to

00:26:32 --> 00:26:37

demonstrate your taqwa for Allah don't tell a new crown, then have

00:26:37 --> 00:26:40

southern patients and Allah says warming it up delayed under

00:26:40 --> 00:26:43

homophobia. And then in the following ayah Allah says via zoom

00:26:43 --> 00:26:48

in high school like this. This is the Promise of Allah. Romania,

00:26:48 --> 00:26:51

Turkey, La Jolla, dalla homophobia, Whoever fears Allah,

00:26:51 --> 00:26:55

Allah subhanahu wa taala makes way out when we zoom in Hi hula. And

00:26:55 --> 00:27:01

Allah provides him from where he could not even imagine. And this

00:27:01 --> 00:27:05

is exactly what happened to this brother, Romania, Tawakkol, Allah

00:27:05 --> 00:27:06

Allah He for what hospital

00:27:07 --> 00:27:12

and whoever puts his trust in Allah, Allah is sufficiently many

00:27:12 --> 00:27:17

years ago, the similar story a brother met me and he says that he

00:27:17 --> 00:27:24

worked in a bank as a manager for the period of at least 25 years.

00:27:25 --> 00:27:29

And he says, in all those 25 years, I never experienced any

00:27:29 --> 00:27:34

Baraka in my wealth, although I was manager. But when I realized

00:27:34 --> 00:27:38

that this is this is the same that I'm doing on a regular basis every

00:27:38 --> 00:27:43

single day, and my provision, my earning is not halal. Then I gave

00:27:43 --> 00:27:48

up I decided I put my trust in Allah. And since that day, I'm

00:27:48 --> 00:27:49

very happy.

00:27:50 --> 00:27:51

I'm very happy.

00:27:52 --> 00:27:56

So this is what happens you have to put your Tawakkol and your

00:27:56 --> 00:28:01

trust in Allah, believing in the ayat of the Quran, Omonia tequila,

00:28:01 --> 00:28:06

your janela humara. On the other hand, I personally know people who

00:28:06 --> 00:28:11

have been making planning for the past 20 years, saying, you know,

00:28:11 --> 00:28:15

now I have this plan for next two, three years. I'm gonna get out of

00:28:15 --> 00:28:19

this, Reba. Okay, what happened after three years, more deep into

00:28:19 --> 00:28:23

Riba. Another way, finding this way or that way. They are not

00:28:23 --> 00:28:28

ready to actually give up for the sake of Allah Rasulullah

00:28:28 --> 00:28:33

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says, Whoever gives up some things

00:28:33 --> 00:28:36

slowly for the pleasure and the for the sake of Allah. Allah

00:28:36 --> 00:28:40

subhanho wa Taala provides him with something better.

00:28:42 --> 00:28:45

Allah subhanahu wa taala provides him a better alternative.

00:28:46 --> 00:28:50

If you give him something for the sake of Allah Medici actually

00:28:50 --> 00:28:54

shaytaan then whispering in their own mind, that if you give up this

00:28:54 --> 00:28:57

then what is going to happen to your wealth, what is going to

00:28:57 --> 00:29:00

happen to your status within the community, you are going to lose

00:29:00 --> 00:29:05

this and that that is why we try to find other shortcuts. Romania

00:29:05 --> 00:29:10

tutta la jolla Jalla Houma kraja we are zooming HIFU laity in

00:29:10 --> 00:29:13

another ayah Allah subhanho wa Taala says, Yeah, you hola Dina

00:29:13 --> 00:29:17

Amano, are you believed in Tata cola? Another benefit that Allah

00:29:17 --> 00:29:22

says in this in particular, if you truly fear Allah, yeah Jalla come

00:29:22 --> 00:29:26

for HANA, Allah who will make a criterion for you.

00:29:27 --> 00:29:28

what did this mean?

00:29:30 --> 00:29:33

The scholars have said, it means that if you have the fear of

00:29:33 --> 00:29:38

Allah, Allah subhanahu wa taala will enable you to distinguish

00:29:38 --> 00:29:40

between halal and haram.

00:29:41 --> 00:29:45

But if you do not have taqwa, you will continue mixing Halal with

00:29:45 --> 00:29:45

haram.

00:29:47 --> 00:29:52

Because of Taqwa if you have taqwa, if you truly fear Allah, if

00:29:52 --> 00:29:56

you are mindful of Allah, if you're conscious of Allah, if you

00:29:56 --> 00:29:59

truly believe that Allah subhanahu wa taala is going to hold you to

00:29:59 --> 00:29:59

an account

00:30:00 --> 00:30:03

And before him till July, you cram on the Day of Judgment with

00:30:03 --> 00:30:07

regards to your statements and actions, then you will be very

00:30:07 --> 00:30:12

very careful before saying or trying anything or before doing

00:30:12 --> 00:30:17

anything. Before you start a business before you take on a job

00:30:17 --> 00:30:21

before you earn before you do this or that. You will always be

00:30:21 --> 00:30:26

mindful of life you have Taqwa of Allah, Allah will make things

00:30:26 --> 00:30:29

clearer for you. And nowadays, unfortunately, we find many people

00:30:29 --> 00:30:32

saying that you know, this matter is not clear for me this is not

00:30:32 --> 00:30:35

clear for me I find so many confusion. Does you know this

00:30:35 --> 00:30:39

scholar have said that does color have said this companion came to

00:30:39 --> 00:30:42

the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam and he asked this question.

00:30:42 --> 00:30:46

He said O Messenger of Allah sometime I get confused with

00:30:46 --> 00:30:50

regards to some religious rulings. So what do I do in this case, he

00:30:50 --> 00:30:55

SallAllahu sallam said, it's tough to call back as your heart. If

00:30:55 --> 00:31:00

your heart is pure, and if the taqwa is there, if you have Taqwa

00:31:00 --> 00:31:04

of Allah in your heart, then your your heart can tell you whether it

00:31:04 --> 00:31:07

is right or wrong in most of the case.

00:31:09 --> 00:31:14

And you will not be looking for or actually I should say you should,

00:31:14 --> 00:31:17

you will not be actually shopping for fatwas.

00:31:18 --> 00:31:23

searching on Google and finding someone you know who has issued a

00:31:23 --> 00:31:24

fatwa in your favor.

00:31:25 --> 00:31:29

And this isn't you try your best to try effort and you try your

00:31:29 --> 00:31:33

best to get the fatwa or to get a YouTube clip or someone's

00:31:33 --> 00:31:37

statement on internet. That actually helps what you want to

00:31:37 --> 00:31:42

do. Then you say, now I'm confused. Because I have to, you

00:31:42 --> 00:31:45

know, decide opinion and that side opinion there are different

00:31:45 --> 00:31:47

opinions. Ask your heart

00:31:48 --> 00:31:53

as yourself, what actually made you what actually made you to

00:31:53 --> 00:31:58

search for Tidus. Initially, it was fine of your Eman

00:31:59 --> 00:32:04

because your heart was not content. You knew. Because of the

00:32:04 --> 00:32:07

Eman and the taqwa within your heart. You knew that there is

00:32:07 --> 00:32:08

something wrong.

00:32:09 --> 00:32:13

And the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam has given us a simple

00:32:13 --> 00:32:17

solution. He said Allah Newbigin will haram obeying and obeying the

00:32:17 --> 00:32:22

Houma water Mr. Behat Halal is clear Haram is clear, and in

00:32:22 --> 00:32:24

between the many doubtful matters

00:32:27 --> 00:32:30

many doubtful matters and this is statement of Rasulullah sallallahu

00:32:30 --> 00:32:34

sallam. Yes, there are many doubtful matters. But what is the

00:32:34 --> 00:32:40

solution? That you try to convince yourself and try to find the taqwa

00:32:40 --> 00:32:43

in the favor of those doubtful matters? No. The Prophet

00:32:43 --> 00:32:48

sallallahu Sallam gave us a simple solution. He said Monica Shewhart

00:32:48 --> 00:32:52

for this Tabata Ali Dini he widely, whoever stays away from

00:32:52 --> 00:32:57

doubtful matters, then he has actually protected his religion.

00:32:57 --> 00:33:01

And he has protected his Iman and he has protected his honor and

00:33:01 --> 00:33:02

dignity as well.

00:33:04 --> 00:33:07

The simple solution if you have not content if you're not happy,

00:33:07 --> 00:33:12

stay away from it, rather than finding excuses or finding the

00:33:12 --> 00:33:14

fatwas in the favor of those matters.

00:33:15 --> 00:33:19

So Allah subhanahu totalis into toquilla. Your janela confer
