Bad he owned a Santa Monica? To lucky over a castle. I pray that you are having a productive Ramadan and ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to accept all our acts of worship, and forgive us for our mistakes and inspire us to be better during the remainder of this very blessed man. I mean, dear viewers, allow me to share with you on yet a Nether means of perfecting our selves in our endeavor to attain

00:00:49--> 00:01:45

and this is in the form of looking after our tongues. Allah subhanho wa Taala in his book says in a verse that we hear almost every Juma Allah subhanho wa Taala says yeah, you have levena de la worku Colin sadita amongst Paraguay Dara says, Oh you will believe we got conscious of Allah subhanho wa Taala fear this obey Allah subhanho wa Taala How should we do this year Allah Allah tells us who olan said either by speaking the truth by speaking a good word, by looking after this annoyed, understand are servants of Allah and all children of Adam, that this tongue can be a means of eternal happiness and eternal pleasure and eternal joy. And this very same time, even though it is

00:01:45--> 00:01:46

small in size

00:01:47--> 00:01:54

can be a means of eternal destruction. And all this depends on how we use this time

00:01:55--> 00:02:15

during the month of Ramadan, and during the past have a believer the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam warned us about this time, and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam said Allah subhanho wa Taala is not in need of a believer remaining hungry and thirsty, when they violate the sanctified nature of this past, through backbiting and through misuse of the tank.

00:02:17--> 00:02:52

This tank can be used to propagate good can be used to speak the truth as advised and commanded to Allah subhanho wa Taala and that is a means of success. And that is a means of attaining a taco. This time can be used to practice a vicar and remembering Allah subhanho wa Taala remaining moist in the remembrance of Allah subhanho wa Taala then this is a time that is a tongue that will indeed be a means of allowing its user to attain a taqwa to attain one of the highest ranks in general. However, if this term is used to live,

00:02:53--> 00:03:39

if this term is used to backbite, if this term is used to gossip, if this term is used to slander, if this term is used to carry tails, and use to promote this unity amongst the oma than this term is something that will keep us far away from far and far away from the pleasure of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And far away from the paradise that Allah subhanho wa Taala has prepared for the people of attack. Let's look at gossiping. gossiping is a concept that has become manifest and rampant in society. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam teaching the Sahaba rhodiola he discussed with them the evils of backbiting and he taught it to them by asking him a question. He said, attend Runa mela

00:03:39--> 00:04:03

Viva. Do you know what backbiting is? So they replied and said Allahu wa rasuluh Allah, Allah and His Rasulo best. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said Vic Luca haka, Bhima Yakubu, remembering your brother in his absence by that which he dislikes you to remember him by what a clear and manifest definition.

00:04:05--> 00:04:19

Today, when somebody is engaged in backbiting, and you advise that person not too bad bite, they have a common statement. And they say I can say these things in front of you

00:04:20--> 00:04:49

know, and understand Oh servant of Allah and oh child of Adam, that it doesn't mean that if you can say something in front of a person that you are allowed to say it in the absence the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam defined that Riba as mentioning something that is disliked by your Muslim brother to be said about him in his absence, period. That is what the event is. So someone from amongst the Sahaba also stood up and questioned the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and said Oh, Prophet of Allah.

00:04:50--> 00:05:00

At canopy azima akula What if I'm saying something about him? That is true. Right. And today, many people speak about development.

00:05:00--> 00:05:15

brother or sister, you know in this way they say for example, he's chubby or he has a big nose. You know these kinds of statements it might be true about what is the purpose of a lover I mean, we'll send him a response. He said, in Canada fee a fee come at a fool.

00:05:17--> 00:05:45

If you say that about him, which he dislikes when you have that bite in him, or in lemonnier convened for bad banter, and if you say that about him, which is not true, then you have committed a medicine and that is the sin of slander bla bla bla. We have also Pennywise Allah protect us from this oh servants of Allah. Allah subhanho wa Taala teaches us that the one who back bites It is as if they have eaten the flesh of the dead brother

00:05:46--> 00:05:47

to pan around.

00:05:48--> 00:06:34

And today we try our best to stay away from haram food which is good. What about staying away from flesh that is half the flesh of our fellow Muslim brothers and sisters use this month of Ramadan Oh servants of Allah. To fix these terms. Use this month of Ramadan to achieve a taqwa and reform ourselves and be a means of benefit to Islam and the Muslims and not a means of dis uniting and insulting Islam and the Muslims. Use this tongue to earn your agenda. Use this tongue to earn the pleasure of Allah subhanho wa Taala I leave you with these words to ponder over 70 of Allah know and understand that everything you say and do will be held accountable upon you in the quarter of Allah

00:06:34--> 00:06:59
