			Any sisters have any questions? Assalamu alaikum brother, welcome.
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:10
			Brother this question is concerning with a few is the beginning verses of Surah Al Baqarah.
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:48
			A person who became a Murthy presented this ayat, and he created a doubt I mean he asked her doubt
concerning those ayat. He said that Allah Subhan Allah is saying and initial verses of Surah Baqarah
that these people will get hedaya or guidance from Allah subhanaw taala, those who have Taqwa, those
who spend out of their wealth, and all those qualities. So his question was a person who is already
having taqwa and already doing all this, why, where does he require hedaya guidance. So if Allah is
going to guide someone who already has, what's the great deal? Because that's the question.
		
00:00:49 --> 00:01:04
			She said that one Muslim who can move that he poses question again is the Quran or she and that
person poses a question on Rebekah studying few verses. We say that Allah guides, those who have
Taqwa. So the question is that what is the use of guiding those who have Taqwa
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:08
			reduces those who don't have that? Why should be guided?
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:23
			Already when example a simple example to answer this question, that in a class A teacher teaches the
student, she but natural teaches all the students same, have you my lecture, but she says that those
who follow my instructions will pass the examination.
		
00:01:25 --> 00:02:00
			The teacher teaches the same to all the students 100 student, she teaches the same thing. But those
who follow the teacher or those who have the yearning, or the desire to obey the teacher, they obey
the teacher instruction. And they study hard and they pass the examination through the teacher says
that those who have the desire to obey me, will get guidance from a lecture and pass the
examination. So you come into this teacher who avoids the use of those who have the desire to listen
to you passing the examination. Those who don't have the desire should pass to the teachers, okay,
fine, that those who don't have the desire to pass I will pass them. So it is illogical. This is
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:36
			examinations. Allah says in the Quran in surah Mulk chapter number 16 Verse number two, Allah is the
collateral mortal Hatta. It is Allah who has created a life to test which of us good indeed, this
life the test for the hereafter. Allah subhana wa Taala has bought us human beings in this world as
a test for the hereafter, and we are undergoing a test. And Allah says in the Quran, that if he
wanted, you could have made each and every human being a Muslim, very easy for him. If he wanted, he
could have made each and every human being a Muslim and all only Jana but then where is the test?
That category is already there, the angels, the angel is a category of creation of Allah subhanaw
		
00:02:36 --> 00:03:10
			taala who never disobey Allah subhanaw taala whatever Allah says they obey. So what will be the
difference between the angels in us the difference between the human beings and the angel is that
the angels don't have a free will of their own. Whatever Allah says there'll be the human meaning
the jinn, we have a free will we can either obey Allah or we can disobey Allah, after a free will is
given to us. If you obey Allah subhanaw taala and follow His commandments, we become higher than the
angels, but after the fee will have given and if you don't obey Allah subhanaw taala we become the
pattern of the Satan. So this life is a test for the hereafter what Allah says that all those who
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:28
			have Taqwa Allah will guide them. Allah says in several verses, including Surah, and Caboose,
chapter number 29 was number 69, that all those who strive in my way, I will open up the pathways.
So if someone objects that Allah has opened up the pathways for those who strive in His way, it is
illogical, he should open up the pathways for those who don't strive
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:39
			to for example, if I'm doing a medical examination, and if I'm teaching the medical students, those
who don't follow the textbook, they will pass. So these doctors when they come out, they will not
treat the patient they will kill the patients.
		
00:03:40 --> 00:04:14
			And Allah says in surah, Lebanon, chapter three, verse 160, that if Allah helps you, no one can
overcome you. If Allah forsakes you who is dead, then who can help you so let the believers put
their trust in Allah subhanaw taala what the Quran says that if you have faith in Allah, Allah is
bound to help you and you're bound to be successful. If you're not successful, it is not allowed to
be blamed. It is your to be blamed. Allah promises that the fisherman is where he opened up your
pathway. If your pathways have not been opened, don't name Allah you have to blame yourself. Allah
nowadays Allah, Allah is just so if we analyze read the Quran, Allah is giving us guidance, he
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:38
			forgets the mistakes, many mistakes human beings make. He forgives us. But at the same time he says
that all those who strive in His way, all those who have Taqwa, all those who have the yearning to
sacrifice, Allah will surely help you and guide you, those who disobey Allah subhanaw taala. So only
thing we should have as Taqwa is the faith in Allah subhanaw taala. To strive in this way, and
inshallah we'll be successful in this world and dakara prognostication system
