Yeah, Kareem.

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

All praises belong to Allah subhanho wa Taala.

00:00:41--> 00:00:44

We praise Allah subhanho wa Taala

00:00:46--> 00:00:55

we seek Allah subhanho wa Taala as assistance and we seek guidance from Allah subhanho wa Taala.

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

And we seek refuge in Allah subhanho wa Taala from the evils of our souls and the adverse consequences of our deeds. Whomsoever Allah subhanho wa Taala decrees guidance upon then men can misguide that person

00:01:13--> 00:01:32

and whomsoever Allah subhanho wa Taala decrees misguidance upon the man can guide him and peace and salutations be upon Mohammed Abdullah Abdullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, my dear mothers and fathers My dear brothers and sisters Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.

00:01:35--> 00:01:38

Our beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said,

00:01:39--> 00:02:05

mainly is Kuru ness, la escuela that the one who does not thank the people, then this person cannot thank Allah subhanho wa Taala because thanking the people is the lesser thanks and thanking Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah is the greater things and if we fail in the lesser, then we are more probably to fail in the greater.

00:02:06--> 00:02:52

So this is the teaching of our beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and it is with this introduction, that I would like to begin today's talk by expressing gratitude to for now for the invitation. And everyone involved in making this three day lecture tour. A success Alhamdulillah have been welcomed to Qatar very well. This is my third talk today. So I've really been Welcome to hamdulillah. We ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to grant Baraka in time in energies and instantly in sha Allah Indeed, Allah subhanho wa Taala is upon our labor. I also want to express gratitude to you all for taking time, investing time, I won't use the word sacrifice. I know we've become accustomed to

00:02:52--> 00:02:53

speakers saying

00:02:55--> 00:03:39

we thank you for sacrificing your time. The time that you spend here is not sacrifice, it's an investment. It's not sacrifice, but an investment. Because you're sitting here is a means of worshipping Allah subhanho wa Taala. And this worship means that Allah subhanho wa Taala will reward you insha Allah and this reward means that inshallah for you is a great agenda in the hereafter. So every second spent here is the worship of Allah subhanho wa Taala as if you are fasting enough will fast as if you are observing nephew, Salah hamdulillah. So you haven't sacrificed anything, instead, you have invested. So I thank you all for being inspired to invest your time and affording me your

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

ears and the opportunity to speak to you all. I ask Allah subhanho wa Taala from the outset, to make this a blessing gathering, a gathering surrounded by angels, a gathering that has come together for his sake, a gathering that is forgiven upon its departure, and ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to unite us together in Jannah. In the same way he has gathered us here today, I mean,

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

as is a norm, as some people have said of mine,

00:04:09--> 00:04:13

let me move this a bit back, I seem to be attacking it. As is a norm.

00:04:15--> 00:04:39

I always choose to tread the path of reminding to a particular reminder at the beginning of every talk and this reminder is a reminder to myself first and foremost before it is a reminder to you all and I said it this morning, and I said it this afternoon. And I'm going to say this evening and that is that we have come together. We have come together here not to learn.

00:04:42--> 00:04:46

And we have come together here not to get to know one another.

00:04:48--> 00:04:59

And we have come together here not to see everyone's handsome faces Mashallah. And you all have handsome faces May Allah subhanho wa Taala increase your handsomeness I mean?

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

Rather we have come together

00:05:03--> 00:05:16

as I proceeded to worship Allah subhanho wa Taala. When you left your home and came here, your intention should have been the worship of Allah subhanho wa Taala. This is important, because

00:05:17--> 00:05:29

you have come to seek knowledge to seek the inheritance of Mohammed Abdullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam inshallah, what will be shared is from the inheritance of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam

00:05:30--> 00:06:12

the concept of seeking knowledge, the concept of meeting one another, and I love you all for the sake of Allah, I must say that now, the concept of meeting one another, and the concept of seeking knowledge is a byproduct of the essence of us coming together, it's not the essence is a byproduct of the essence, our essence should be the worship of Allah subhanho wa Taala. Our as our coming together should be for the sake of building our agenda, our coming together should be for the sake of making our skills heavy on the day of piano. And this should be the reality behind each and every lecture or book that you will read for the sake of Allah or tape or CD that you will listen to for

00:06:12--> 00:06:37

the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala for the rest of your life. Never ever make the primary intention learning rather than make it the worship of Allah and if you are sincere in your intention, then inshallah Allah subhanho wa Taala will teach you for Allah subhanho wa Taala says, What up Hola, limo como la, that be God conscious of Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah and Allah,

00:06:38--> 00:06:39

Allah,

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

Allah.

00:06:42--> 00:06:51

Allah had Alford Samad and levy Lamia dwolla, mula wollemi Khufu and I had Allah Subhana who Allah will teach you.

00:06:53--> 00:07:11

So ensure that you make your intention sincere, and inshallah with a sincere intention sharepad won't make you feel like your back is hurting, or that you've set too long. Because it's never too long when we building our agenda Alhamdulillah Allah subhanho wa Taala MC are coming together a gender building exercise, I mean,

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

the topic presented my dear brothers and sisters

00:07:16--> 00:07:57

for this particular evening is forgiveness. And this is a very important topic. It's a topic of utmost importance. For we live in a recession, we've just completed a financial crisis or still feeling the effects of it. We all know about the problems in security, banking, and repo markets, and the crash that started mid 2007. And spread like wildfire from one end of the globe to the other.

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

Amazing, and that was a recession. But as we digest that recession, it must be said that we ourselves live through a recession

00:08:10--> 00:08:11

with regards to relationships

00:08:12--> 00:08:26

with regards to our abilities to work together with one another with regards to our egos, and its management. And if we contemplate over this particular point, or these points all together,

00:08:27--> 00:08:35

and we see the effects of it in committees of Islamic centers, and masajid.

00:08:37--> 00:08:38

Beginning to retrogress,

00:08:40--> 00:08:59

or families all together, beginning to become disunited and apart. If we analyze this, we see that the core criteria behind it is our inability to forgive. Thus today My dear brothers and sisters, I come to you in sha Allah insha Allah with

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

something that insha Allah is better, is better than everything this world can give you.

00:09:07--> 00:09:22

Everything this world can give you and inshallah will be the best for you in the last year. This topic of forgiveness and to introduce this topic, I want to take you back in time. I want to take you back in time, many, many 100 years ago,

00:09:23--> 00:09:39

many, many 100 years ago, over 1400 years ago to an incident that happened at the time of Muhammad Ali Abdullah Sana Allahu alayhi wa sallam. And as you listen to this, I want you to remember the topic for this evening. What is the topic?

00:09:40--> 00:09:42

I can't hear you. But

00:09:43--> 00:09:45

the topic is forgiveness.

00:09:46--> 00:09:52

Once when Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and the Muslims were returning from a journey to Medina.

00:09:54--> 00:09:55

They were returning all together.

00:09:56--> 00:09:57

And

00:09:58--> 00:09:59

Rasulullah sallallahu ala

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

He will send them to chi shadow the Allahu Allah on this particular journey.

00:10:04--> 00:10:33

And on returning to this journey I shadow the Allahu Allah has separated from the caravan for some moments. And this caravan departed thinking that she was inside her hood edge. The Edge refers to this type of canopy canopy that would be placed on the camels that would house the females. It's amazing. So Pamela, right, today we talk about Airbus's, right big buses. And it's amazing that at that time, they had a means of housing.

00:10:36--> 00:11:06

passengers on top of a camel which has a hump on top of its of Hannah law. So they thought she was in her cabin. And the caravan departed. And when she came back, she saw that they were gone. So actually Allah who decided to stay put where she was, and decided to take that point as a resting point, and said, that what what what I'll do is wait here for insha Allah, they will realize that I'm not there, and they will turn back and find me where they last left me.

00:11:08--> 00:11:16

Now, it was a norm of the Muslim caravans then that they would have something known or they would have somebody riding behind

00:11:17--> 00:11:39

at a distance following this particular caravan, but at a distance why in case something fell off, then this person would pick it up. We all know about cricket here, isn't it the these look like cricket faces Mashallah. So we know in cricket, they always play somebody known as a sweeper. On the boundary, isn't it? in case there's a

00:11:41--> 00:11:42

shot that

00:11:43--> 00:12:23

is meaning in case that the batsman manages to play his drive, right, as the ball goes through the cover, and is heading towards the boundary for a for what happens we have the sweep on the boundary, who picks up this cricket ball and make sure that the flow is not registered. So we can call this person a sweeper, this person would right behind the Muslim caravan and ensure that there was nothing left behind except that it would be picked up and taken to Medina on this particular instance, so far, and even rapala Viola one was the sweeper and he was riding to Medina behind this caravan, and he would miss this object in the distance. And as he contemplated regarding this object

00:12:23--> 00:12:52

thinking what it could be, and he got closer and closer and closer, he realized that this was the mother of the believers I shadowed the Allahu Allah. And as it was said, he recognized her from before he jumped was compulsive. So he recognized her and what he did was he got off his mount and he let her get onto the mount and he walked back to Medina with her on the mount and she got back to Medina safely or hamdulillah. However, in Medina were the hypocrites. We Morocco

00:12:53--> 00:12:54

and the head of them

00:12:55--> 00:13:46

and Abdullah Hoban obey Robinson, the head of the moon Africa, when they saw this particular scenery, the mother of the believers writing writing amounts and so one or the other one bringing her in they said this is a perfect opportunity to strike strife within the believers and this was the the ploy and plot and this was the circumstance in Medina. So they started spreading rumors and accusing her of the Allahu anhu of things which she would never ever do, which are far from her and her character of the Allahu Allah. They accused her of an illegal relationship with this particular sahab Allah subhanho wa Taala raised her ranks and protect her from the evil of those who do not

00:13:46--> 00:13:58

respect me, Robbie Allahu Allah. So they started spreading these rumors. And Allah subhanho wa Taala in his divine wisdom, let these rumors spread.

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

It was easy for Allah subhanho wa Taala to purify the Allahu anhu immediately with what by sending gibreel was is not so Allah subhanho wa Taala chose to let these rumors last a month

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

or just over a month. And it became difficult and more widespread and why he wasn't coming down. And the situation became intense in the home of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam until he decided to stay away from her until revelation came to purify the matter and clarify the matter.

00:14:34--> 00:14:59

It was a test. Allah tested the believers, and Allah tested the Sahara. And it so happened that some Sahaba of the Allahu adrain made a mistake. They fell prey to these rumors and affirmed some of the things that these hypocrites were saying was a mistake. we human beings are we prone to mistake they made a mistake from the people who

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

affirmed that which some of the munaf he was saying was a person, it's a hobby by the name of Mr.

00:15:08--> 00:15:21

Mr. Mousavi, Allah who was from the relatives of Abu Bakar. In fact, the LMA say that he was the son of Abu Bakr is aren't maternal aren't.

00:15:22--> 00:15:48

And he wasn't well to do Mr. So Abu Bakar for many, many years was spending on MySpace, being charitable to him. It was his relative, and Islam teaches us to look after those close to us, right. So he was spending on and the general nature of Abu Bakar was that he was generous. We know how many slaves he freed when Islam came about and the slaves were being persecuted. We know this from them below the Allah Hi.

00:15:49--> 00:15:59

So Misbah was from the relatives he was poor, and he was from the mohajir meaningless for accepted Islam before migration to Medina robiola

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

and he made this mistake and affirmed it. And Allah subhanho wa Taala after the prescribed time revealed is the purified nature of the Allahu Akbar.

00:16:10--> 00:16:39

Yet that will be recited to the date of pm La ilaha illa Allah This is another feature of Allah, that we have is about the book of Allah subhanho wa Taala. recited till the Day of PM, and that is where Allah subhanho wa Taala said, Let the saboo Shabbat men who are lucky enough to know Allah subhanho wa Taala when he mentioned his the story, he says, Don't think that what happened and the delay in purification and the tests that you went through was bad for you. Instead it was good for you.

00:16:40--> 00:16:43

She had if that would be recited to Allah, Allah Allah Allah.

00:16:45--> 00:16:50

So Allah subhanho wa Taala purified a shot of the Allahu Allah and when Abu Bakr radi Allahu Allah

00:16:52--> 00:16:56

heard these ayat he became extremely upset with Mr.

00:16:57--> 00:17:01

Now I asked you a question. Did he not have a right to be upset with Miss la?

00:17:02--> 00:17:04

Did he not have a right?

00:17:05--> 00:17:15

Yes or no? He did. This was his daughter, you my family member I spent on you. I'm generous to you. You're supposed to be from the close ones.

00:17:16--> 00:17:37

You're supposed to be from the ones who have good thoughts and continue with good thoughts and pick your side Wow. When fitna arises, he had every right to be upset. This was Ayesha rhodiola who and her his daughter number one number two, the wife of Mohammed Abdullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam number three the mother of the believers this was great upon the ummah.

00:17:39--> 00:17:39

So

00:17:40--> 00:17:42

Abu Bakar took a casa

00:17:43--> 00:17:47

that from today I will never spend on Mr.

00:17:48--> 00:17:51

From today I will never spend on Mr.

00:17:53--> 00:18:07

What is the topic today My dear brothers and sisters forgiveness. Abu Bakr radi Allahu Allah takes a person that I will never spend on Mr. Again, I ask did he not have a right to do this?

00:18:08--> 00:18:11

Did he not have a right? Indeed he did.

00:18:12--> 00:18:36

Now what happens? This is the point of great of our interest What happened? By Allah by Allah? Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah revealed a yet revealed if Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah said while yet tele oluwole for gleaming, Kumasi

00:18:38--> 00:18:41

you too only

00:18:42--> 00:18:49

one my Sakina one more hair God not fee sebelah

00:18:53--> 00:18:55

and then what did Allah subhanho wa Taala say?

00:18:57--> 00:19:06

Well, Leah for Leos furfrou Allah Toshi buena de Avira la hula

00:19:09--> 00:19:27

la who have rasheem La ilaha illa Allah, listen to this oh servants of Allah. And listen to this oh Children of Adam. Allah subhanho wa Taala revealed ayah Allah subhanho wa Taala said while a teddy and in another Tera vaada yet Allah

00:19:29--> 00:19:30

What does this mean?

00:19:31--> 00:19:40

We will live in Kumasi. It wasn't for the people of Ghana and the people of financial standing and material well being to take an oath to take a person

00:19:42--> 00:19:54

who is Allah subhanho wa Taala referring to here when he says it wasn't for the people of Ghana, who Abubakar De La Hoya and this is an answer to those who are disrespectful to Abu Bakr, viola Why?

00:19:55--> 00:19:59

They disrespectful to him, we say he's a man of honor and Allah subhanho wa Taala says

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

So, yeah, totally alone for believing Kumasi. It wasn't for those of honor and financial standing and material well being from amongst you to take a person to take a person to swear by Allah never to spend on

00:20:16--> 00:20:27

their relatives, never to spend on the poor, never to spend on those who migrated from Mecca to Medina, who is Allah subhanho wa Taala referring to here

00:20:28--> 00:20:30

who Mr.

00:20:31--> 00:21:14

did not say earlier, he was from the relatives of Abu Bakar. And he was, he was poor. And he was from the mohajirs do not say that. Yes. What is Allah subhanho wa Taala say to Abu Bakar it wasn't for you to do this. Instead, forgive him and pardon him, la la la la, La ilaha illa Allah are servants of Allah and oh Children of Adam. We're not talking about forgiving someone when there's reciprocal harm, when you've harmed them and they've harmed you and we're saying look, let bygones be bygones and forgive them. We're talking about forgiving a person when you are in the total right? And they are in the total wrong. And this is Allah subhanho wa Taala, commanding Abubakar, instead,

00:21:14--> 00:21:38

pardon him and forgive him, forgive him and pardon him and listen to what Allah subhanho wa Taala says, Allah subhanho wa Taala is allowed to hit Buddha. Allah. Allah subhanho wa Taala tells Abu Bakr radi Allahu and Abu Bakr radi Allahu and a man who has given bad tidings of gender whilst he was in this dunya Allah subhanho wa Taala tells him Do you not love for Allah to forgive you?

00:21:42--> 00:21:51

Do you not love Allah subhanho wa Taala to forgive you will love Allah for Rahim and Allah subhanho wa Taala is the most forgiving, the Most Merciful.

00:21:53--> 00:22:20

This Oh servants of Allah and oh Children of Adam is the topic of forgiveness. This is the topic of forgiveness. This is the great gift that I said I have brought to you today inshallah the greatest gift of this world and inshallah the greatest benefit for you in the afro sufferance of Allah. What will make us understand how important it is to forgive others, what will make us understand how important it is to forgive others, especially when

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

we are in the total right.

00:22:26--> 00:22:40

understand our servants of Allah. That if you wanted to know how important this topic of LFO is, this topic of forgiveness is, then understand that LFO is from the names of Allah subhanho wa Taala.

00:22:43--> 00:23:22

Did our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam not teach us to say Allah humma in nikka foo when Karim Allah for Allah? Did he not? Did our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam not teach us to make this de Allahumma indicar fu Oh Allah indeed you are the one who pageants. This is from the names of Allah and by Allah, it is enough for us to understand the honor of forgiving by just this particular point, by just us knowing that it's from the names of Allah subhanho wa Taala. Wouldn't you want to have some of the qualities of Allah subhanho wa Taala? You'll never have it at the level of course. But wouldn't you want to have those qualities? Isn't it enough for you to know that if Allah

00:23:22--> 00:23:39

subhanho wa Taala has chosen it as his name and made it from his qualities that this Fabiola, that there's honor in this quality? And would you not want and love to have these qualities in you? Wouldn't you feel honored to be a person of forgiveness? Would you not by Allah I will.

00:23:41--> 00:24:13

So to understand how honorable forgiving is and who is and forgiving others is, then understand that it's from the names of Allah subhanho wa Taala and understand that Allah subhanho wa Taala is the best of all those who forgive La ilaha illa Allah because Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah is our full Kadir, Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah forgives you when he has all the power to punish you La ilaha illa Allah he doesn't. It's not a concept of forgiveness from a position of weakness. He forgives you from a position of strength Allah, Allah, Allah Allah

00:24:14--> 00:24:24

he's he's capable over you. He is capable over us but he forgives us La ilaha illa Allah, this Allah subhanho wa Taala is the best of all those who forgive

00:24:26--> 00:24:28

Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah says in this ayah

00:24:30--> 00:24:33

he commands to a level was suffering.

00:24:34--> 00:24:40

Well yeah, who will use for who what is the meaning of a level of suffering? The realm I have discussed this.

00:24:41--> 00:24:45

And in the English language, we see translation such as forgive and pardon.

00:24:46--> 00:25:00

And the scholars have said that these are two words that have reciprocated meanings, similar meanings, and they are from those words in the Arabic language which we can say is HTML, if not awkward, after aka HTML, they certainly

00:25:00--> 00:25:42

words in the Arabic language when they, when they exist independently, they share the same meaning. And when they come together in the sentence they have different meanings like Islam and a man like Islam and a man. When Islam exists by itself, it's a word in an ayah. Or in a in a hadith by itself, we say that Islam encompasses the meaning of a man. And when we see a man in an ayah, or Eman in a Hadith, by itself, we say a man here is encompassing of Islam. However, when the two words come together in one particular sentence, then we say Islam carries of specific meaning. And a man carries a specific meaning. So this is the same thing said about a soft will have some have said LFO

00:25:42--> 00:25:46

is Adam, that will fail. It's to avoid

00:25:47--> 00:26:14

redemption using actions. And a soft is Adam images that will account it's to avoid redemption using your tongue. Sometimes somebody says something, you answer them back, that's redemption using your tongue, right. So, this is what the LMR have said. But in the Arabic language LFO refers to the same meaning as a pumps of pumps, pumps, refers to erasing something and that is why the Arabs the Arabs would say

00:26:17--> 00:26:48

that the the the wind has covered the tracks, they use the word that this word LFO right. So allow for means to erase something, right and this word has been given to forgiveness. Why because when somebody does something to you, you do have the ability to redeem yourself, right through a concept known as redemption, on condition that is, that the the redemption is equal to the harm received, we know that the Sharia allows us to redeem ourselves, if somebody harms us, we are allowed to, we are allowed to

00:26:50--> 00:27:11

redeem ourselves with the concept of redemption, on condition this masala on condition there is mythology, that we are not excessive in our redemption. However, if you choose not to redeem yourself, then what has happened. What has happened is, you have sort of erased, erased, the harm received. So this is

00:27:13--> 00:27:53

and this is a software and we Allah subhanho wa Taala makers from the people have an iPhone or software. So after you've understood really what Allah subhanho wa Taala has commanded Abu Bakr to, and in fact before I say that some of the scholars say that allow for is to forgive. And a soft is to forgive and forget La ilaha illa Allah to forgive and forget. There's a difference. Sometimes we forgive somebody, but we don't forget. And we tell them and forgive you. But I don't forget, isn't it? Right? Have we have we heard that from someone before? We forgive you? hallas It's okay. Let bygones be bygones. We have to work together. So let's work together but know that I don't forget.

00:27:55--> 00:27:55

For who to

00:27:57--> 00:28:24

be away and tread the path of course, you know, a suffer has the scholars have said some have said is to forget, and this was a quality of use of Allah, his Salah use of Allah He Salah we all know, was abducted from his home as a young boy, as a young boy by his brothers, those that he considered his closest protectors. Wouldn't you hold the biggest grudge against your brother? If he did that to you? He took you and threw you down the bottom of a well?

00:28:26--> 00:28:30

What did you hold what any graduate the greatest grudge, wouldn't you

00:28:31--> 00:29:13

use of it he salon went through many tests as a result of being abducted from his home. Because as a result of being in the well, he was taken as a slave. And as a result of being taken, this was harmful. And as a result of being taken as a slave. He was transported to Egypt and sold as a slave. And this was harmful. And as a result of this, he was forced to live in a home of work, and home of no models. And this was harmful. And as a result of this, he was tested with adultery. And this was harmful and Allah protected him and as a result of this he was thrown into prison. And this was harmful harm after home after home after harm. And the scholars of fcsa use of Allah His Salam

00:29:13--> 00:29:52

between his abduction and being reunited with his family went through more than 40 years, which means use of Allah He Salam was in his 50s when Allah reunited him with his brothers. So use of Allah He Salah meets his brothers, and they are in regret. And what does Yusuf Alayhi Salam immediately say letter three Valley Coolio. You're from LA hola como says there's no harm for you today. There's no blame upon you today. Allah will forgive you. Well, who are humble Rahimi and Allah subhanho wa Taala is the Most Merciful of all those who show mercy Subhana Allah Allah, if it was you and I, and we, the Minister of Egypt, and these culprits walked in, immediately would have

00:29:52--> 00:29:54

arrested them and thrown them into prison.

00:29:55--> 00:29:56

Not so

00:29:58--> 00:30:00

years decades of injustice

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

Because of the injustice, but immediately when he sees them and he sees them in regret, he says that three Valley Coolio, you are forgiven. Now, let's see what happens at the end of the story. When jacoba salam arrives jacoba he Salam arrives and Yusuf Ali Salam praises Allah subhanho wa Taala and says

00:30:26--> 00:30:32

what are the center be in orogeny mean as sujan yg

00:30:41--> 00:30:53

or shape on benei. verbena whitey Yusuf Alayhi Salam says after he's reunited with his family, and a ma was kind to me when

00:30:56--> 00:30:58

when Allah removed me from the prison

00:31:00--> 00:31:02

Did he say when Allah removed me from the well

00:31:03--> 00:31:07

which is more difficult for use of Allah He said, I'm going to prison or being thrown into our

00:31:08--> 00:31:40

in your view, a young boy around seven years old, which is more difficult being thrown into prison as an adult when you've chosen prison or being thrown into the wealth into the world so why does it used to finally he said, I'm say Allah was good to me when he removed me from the well. Why does he say Allah was good to me when he removed me from prison? Why? Because he forgave and forgot. He forgot about the well, when he told his brothers in a few if before letter, three Valley Coolio, there is no blame on you. You have to Allahu Allah, and Allah will forgive you.

00:31:42--> 00:31:54

So Yusuf Alayhi Salam exercises, this quality of this ability to forgive and forget La ilaha illa Allah May Allah subhanho wa Taala grant us the qualities of of his MBA AlLahi wa Salatu was Salam Ameen.

00:31:57--> 00:32:35

Did you understand that point? Now, even in his speech, he didn't say when Allah removed me from the well, to show his brothers have forgotten about it, it's done. You don't speak about it from today, and I'll never speak about it from today. It's not like some of us we forgive. Then one day on the golf course, maybe on the ninth hole with our driver in our hand, the big golf stick, the driver is used to hit the ball long, right? We tend to our playing partner who we might have forgiven many years ago and say, remember, once we waving the big driver in his face, and nowadays the very big right we know that so we waved his face and say, remember that day when you did this, but I forgive

00:32:35--> 00:32:36

you.

00:32:38--> 00:32:48

are servants of Allah know Children of Adam, to make us understand the importance of forgiveness, understand that it was a quality of Muhammad Abdullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, this was his quality.

00:32:49--> 00:33:14

And not only in our sources, the sources before us affirm this as a quality of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam in the hadith of Abdullah, Abdullah and Houma. He says, When Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah revealed this ayah in the Akasha hidden one mubasher on one of the euro, that indeed we have sent you as a witness, and as a giver of glad tidings and as a warner.

00:33:15--> 00:33:23

He says that these qualities were mentioned in the previous scriptures when they describe the qualities of the upcoming Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam.

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

And no one understand that Allah subhanho wa Taala commanded the believers before his era towards forgiveness towards pardoning in many, many as I'm sure you've heard, Allah subhanho wa Taala says fatter and homeless.

00:33:41--> 00:33:57

First, and Humala Salam Hudler for more Bella Rosa Daniel J. Haley, Visa if you Allah subhanho wa Taala is commanding the believers to forgive and to pardon. Yes, they're being persecuted. Some of them their parents were killed. Yes, even though

00:34:00--> 00:34:14

he was being what would they believe was being commanded to forgiveness forgive them? Allah subhanho wa Taala was training them was training us. And if somebody says that no, they were being commanded to forgive because they were weak, we say let

00:34:15--> 00:34:59

don't say they were that was the case. Have you not heard Allah subhanho wa Taala said lm todo el el levena de la whom Khufu a de como de masala to zakka. Allah subhanho wa Taala says, Have you not seen those who are commanded to lower their arms, they were not weak. They were ready, but they were commanded to lower the arms and they were commanded to observe salah and zecca so they weren't weak, and that's why Allah commanded them to forgive. A lot was training the oma and the scholars say there was great Hickman Allah subhanho wa Taala, commanding the oma towards forgiveness towards forgiveness towards forgiveness, they were persecuted to forgive they will

00:35:00--> 00:35:34

sent to our seniors to forgive, their property was taken still forgive. They were sanctioned for many years without food and water and trade and medicine still forgive that, you know, in the law. This was great training from Allah subhanho wa Taala. The scholars say that from the Hickman wisdom behind this was that Allah subhanho wa Taala did not want a father to fight his son. Because if war broke out here at this early period, people would say that Islam teaches sons to fight their fathers because we know that they were families where the children were Muslim, and the fathers were still stuck up on the way of the Lord. So we have the courage

00:35:36--> 00:35:44

from the wisdoms, as explained by the dilemma was that Allah subhanho wa Taala was training the Ummah to be to be patient.

00:35:46--> 00:35:51

Because if you can be patient upon your own adversities, you can be patient upon the adversities of others La ilaha illa Allah.

00:35:53--> 00:36:02

So Allah commands towards forgiveness in many is in the most difficult of circumstances, and not because the Muslims were weak. Instead, they were able that Hamza of the Allahu

00:36:03--> 00:36:04

Akbar, Allahu Akbar.

00:36:06--> 00:36:43

And we know that when Omar accepted Islam and he went to Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and said yeah Rasul Allah, O Messenger of Allah, Allah, Allah Huck, are we not upon the heck and Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Bella, Yes, we are. says, Why are we observing Salah in secret? Instead, we will march to the hermit observe saliva, right? This was at a time when the Muslims were being persecuted. And they marched and the the heads of the Quraysh from the network, they looked on. And they saw the Muslims coming in one file to the carrabba to observe salah and they said should we observe harm on them? And somebody said Nah. What harm can you observe on a

00:36:43--> 00:36:46

group of people flanked by Hamza and Omar Abdullah and

00:36:47--> 00:37:06

they were capable, but Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah commanded towards forgiveness, this quality of forgiveness was the way of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam I shadowed the Allahu anhu and says that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was not obscene was not obscure with his words, what can they afford? She says that he used to forgive and pardon

00:37:09--> 00:37:19

to make us understand further or servants of Allah, and oh Children of Adam, why it is important to forgive, then understand that it is a means of increasing your rank in the hereafter.

00:37:21--> 00:37:30

There's a problem in society today. Today, if we don't redeem ourselves, society tells us you weak. society tells us You're a coward.

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

society tells us you're not a man.

00:37:35--> 00:37:54

And I spoke to to the students at the University today and I said we need to become people who critique current thought processes, not people who accepted part and parcel. We need to critique it. We need to benchmark it against the teachings of the Sharia. If it matches we'll accept if it doesn't, we will reject.

00:37:55--> 00:38:16

Because we have been given the greater DNA and roadmap which is the DNA of the Sharia. Today, you don't want to take the path of forgiveness, why you will be weak, your ego will be damaged. I won't forgive my family member for what they've done, I will make them pay for this harm. Why? Because they should know that I'm not weak La ilaha illa Allah,

00:38:17--> 00:38:46

by Allah are servants of Allah and oh Children of Adam. Strength is in following the sudden strength is in following the command of Allah subhanho wa Taala was Abu Bakr week when Allah subhanho wa Taala commanded him to forgive, and the MSA that when Abu Bakar received this is immediately said but Allah, Indeed Allah for Allah to forgive me, and he continued spending on this path until his death La Jolla high Lama was he weak by Allah He was not weak. He was a man of strength.

00:38:48--> 00:38:50

Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said

00:38:51--> 00:39:03

that Allah subhanho wa Taala mantova Allah for Allah, the One who humbles themselves for the sake of Allah, you forgive someone even though they wrong, Rasul Allah Allah and increase you in rank.

00:39:05--> 00:39:11

And in another generation, Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Allah increases the honor of a slave who forgives.

00:39:14--> 00:39:22

And we are looking for our problem is our paradigms have shifted. We're looking for honor in the wrong places. Honor is founded following the Quran and the Sunnah.

00:39:23--> 00:39:30

From the benefits of forgiveness of servants of Allah, and oh Children of Adam, is that Allah subhanho wa Taala will love you.

00:39:32--> 00:39:42

If you want a lot to love you make forgiving others part and parcel of your DNA. Have you not read the I in the Quran? We Allah subhanho wa Taala says

00:39:43--> 00:39:53

was Aereo Ella Mahavira Mira be calm weijun nothing has

00:39:57--> 00:39:59

been Allah subhanho wa Taala

00:40:00--> 00:40:24

commanded the believers to march forth towards a agenda that has a width which is greater than the heavens and the earth La ilaha illAllah a agenda that has been prepared for the Mata Poon who has the otaku Nia Allah Who are the year Allah, Allah subhanho wa Taala says, I levena you Buena Vista rah, rah,

00:40:25--> 00:40:29

we mean alloy, Laffy nerney

00:40:31--> 00:40:32

Whoa, who you

00:40:33--> 00:40:34

see me in

00:40:36--> 00:41:17

the NSA is the mythical are those who spend in the path of Allah subhanho wa Taala during times of ease, and during times of difficulty, while it can remain alive, and they are those that suppress their anger when they become angry, La ilaha illa Allah, look at the strong men, the one who suppresses his anger when he becomes angry when Athena and Ines and they forgive others who harm them. They forgive others who have made mistakes, they forgive others who have wronged them. What does Allah say Allah Who? sin and Allah loves the doers of good. So if you want to learn to love you be a doer of good and if you want to do good, then Allah subhanho wa Taala has said that you should

00:41:17--> 00:41:24

forgive others. We just spoke just now about being a coward. And we spoke just now about being weak. Did we not?

00:41:25--> 00:41:31

Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said Lisa shadowbet surah the strong man is not the one who can wrestle

00:41:32--> 00:41:43

is not the strong wrestler. The strong man is the man who can suppress his anger when he becomes angry. This is it oh servants of Allah, and oh Children of Adam.

00:41:44--> 00:42:07

From the benefits of forgiving is that the angels will love you as well. For when Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah loves you. And we just discussed the ayah then Allah subhanho wa Taala calls debris, and tells gibreel oh gibreel I love this person and he commands gibreel to love this person. And when gibreel descends to the heavens, all the angels asked him what did

00:42:09--> 00:42:45

they all want to know? And gibreel says Allah subhanho wa Taala said he loves foolin, and he's commanded me to love him. So I've loved him. And the angels say because you've loved him, we've loved him also, la la la la. So from the benefits of forgiving is that you earn the love of the angels, and from the benefit of forgiving of servants of Allah is that you earn the love of the creation of Allah on the face of this earth. For when the creation of the skies love you, then that love descends into the hearts of the people on the face of this earth. I'm sure you know of people who you don't know but you love them for the sake of Allah. Right or wrong. You know of people.

00:42:46--> 00:43:24

Allah has given them acceptance. You love them for the sake of Allah. And this is a sign of the love permeating from the heavens on to athletic Allah. Hi, Lola. So we've discussed many benefits of forgiving In summary, it's from the names of Allah subhanho wa Taala is from the quantities of Mohammed sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, it's a means of earning the love of Allah subhanho wa Taala it's a means of earning the love of the angels of Allah subhanho wa Taala it's a means of earning the love of the creation of Allah subhanho wa Taala on Earth, it's a means of us having our ranks increase in the hereafter La ilaha illa Allah. Now, let me share with you a closer reason why you

00:43:24--> 00:44:13

should forgive. Right? A worldly reason. Whenever this our lemme tell us that whenever you teach somebody, give them spiritual reasons and give them physical reasons, because they also have minds. Right? And where did the LM islands from they learned from Omar blah blah blah Juan Pablo De La Hoya And may Allah gathers with him in Genoa, and Abubakar and all the Sahaba, viola and imaginary and Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam. I mean, when he was dying, Amara blah, blah, blah and a young boy entered upon him, and this boy had his lower government hanging below his ankles. Now we're talking about Omar Abdullah who and bleeding to death, and Omar Musa Fabiola, one meets this boy.

00:44:13--> 00:44:15

And as this boy turns around to depart from

00:44:17--> 00:44:20

Lahore and says, Yes, he, oh, son of my brother.

00:44:22--> 00:44:30

Lift your lower government's friend who is called Arabic For indeed it is of more piety to Europe to your Lord

00:44:31--> 00:44:35

was phobic and you will allow yourself to last longer.

00:44:37--> 00:44:59

Right? He gave him a spiritual reason and a physical reason is closer to Europe. And it will allow you to last longer if it drags on the floor it will take quickly. Right? So let's talk about a physical reason something close to you and I the benefits of forgiving if you forgive my dear brothers and sisters, in sha Allah, it will be a means of protecting yourself.

00:45:00--> 00:45:27

From triple bypasses, we Allah subhanho wa Taala forgive us from this operation. We all know when you grow older and your arteries become clogged what happens? We need to go for an operation, a bypass operation. And how many times today Do we hear of a Muslim undergoing a triple bypass? Yes, it's got to do with diet. Yes, it's got to do with stress. But stress is also caused by fighting with people and not forgiving them. When you forgive them. Your heart becomes a piece

00:45:29--> 00:45:30

your blood pressure lowers

00:45:31--> 00:45:36

you become a happy person and you smile more and it's similar to smile. Smile

00:45:37--> 00:45:39

Hello, practice as soon as

00:45:40--> 00:45:42

the camera is facing me not You don't worry.

00:45:43--> 00:45:46

Nobody will see you smile although you all have beautiful smiles Mashallah.

00:45:47--> 00:46:08

So these are the reasons are servants of Allah and oh Children of Adam and we ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to make us people of forgiveness. Allah subhanho wa Taala to make us people of forgiveness. Now, this talk wouldn't be complete if we didn't discuss how do we earn the abilities to forgive others? Right or wrong? How do we add this ability? Now I was thinking about this and on my way here

00:46:09--> 00:46:10

to this particular talk.

00:46:11--> 00:46:13

I jotted a few points

00:46:14--> 00:46:16

on paper and Shall I still have them in my mind?

00:46:18--> 00:46:32

Islam teaches us how to develop qualities of an afro and these qualities that Allah commanded Abubakar rhodiola and towards and the qualities of hammocks, Allahu alayhi wa sallam, and the qualities of use of AlLahi Salah.

00:46:33--> 00:46:49

The scholars say that we should become people that don't allow ourselves to drown in the heat of moments when we become angry. In the Arabic language. This is known as Alistair hora left battle, however, it is still rock, philosophical, how they're

00:46:50--> 00:46:57

drowning in the heat of the moment, we become angry, and we let the moment get the better of us. So bang, you divorce your wife.

00:46:59--> 00:47:02

This is, this is a result of not forgiving.

00:47:03--> 00:47:16

And some people think they meant, right. Like one of our machines said to us that once a person was traveling his wife and his wife told him you're not a man. You're not a man in a controlled jail if you're a man.

00:47:17--> 00:47:21

divorce me, he says, you saying I'm a man. I'm a man we divorced.

00:47:24--> 00:47:30

When he went into regret, and he went to the chef, the chef said, You're not a man. You divorced. You're not a man, you are a man if you didn't,

00:47:32--> 00:47:40

we drowned in the heat of the moments. And we've seen how Allah subhanho wa Taala says that the people of gender are those who suppress their anger when they become angry.

00:47:42--> 00:48:22

Don't allow yourself to drown in the heat of the moment. Let your Eman guide you. When somebody upsets you. Let you know sometimes we become emotional, right? And we always have this discussion, should we think with our mind? Or should we think with our heart? And the answer to that question is, let your mind govern your heart and let the Sharia govern your mind. Some people think that the mind and the mind takes them astray. Our mind has intellect. But we should use our mind behind the screen of the sherea sherea governs and ties this mind and that's why the mind is called an apple. An apple in the Arabic language refers to something tight, the mind is tight. It doesn't do anything

00:48:22--> 00:49:00

and everything. The mind doesn't do everything and anything rather the mind does that which is right Allah says for Allah Maha foodora ha ha ha Allah has inspired this neffs right, the knifes the body and the soul Allah has inspired it to no good from bad. So our mind is tied. And when we become emotional, we should let our mind come in and understand right from wrong and understand that we are believers and we are people from Eman And we should suppress anger, suppress anger. The next way or servants of Allah to attain forgiveness in your life is to practice something known as empathy. You know what empathy means? empathy refers to

00:49:01--> 00:49:06

walking in the other person's shoes. If somebody comes to you and ask for forgiveness.

00:49:08--> 00:49:15

Reverse the situation think as if you harm them. And you asked me for forgiveness. What would you love them to do for you?

00:49:17--> 00:49:29

This is empathy. And this helps us forgive others. It's important we have to discuss this, right? We have to this talk won't be complete unless we discuss some ideas to develop this quality of laughter

00:49:30--> 00:49:55

because we're not here to entertain, I don't want it to be in should never be for any talk that you go to that you know we came to because the speaker is entertaining. He's a powerful speaker. So we came to listen to his talk, for example should never be the case. You should you should and this is a footnote I'm going off topic but this is something which needs to be set needs to be set. We need to become people who run to the not run to people and personalities.

00:49:57--> 00:49:59

the inheritance of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam

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

Is all the hype we need. We don't need to market so heavily a personality,

00:50:06--> 00:50:21

which is the way of Western ideology and consumerization that we've become accustomed to, to cause people to enter the mastery to listen to a talk by Allah, we need to nurture the Ummah, to respect the knowledge. For the knowledge is what made the person

00:50:22--> 00:50:34

not the person who made the knowledge, understand this, it's not the speaker, who made the knowledge by Allah, if any speaker deserves respect, it's because of the knowledge which Allah gave him is the knowledge that made him.

00:50:35--> 00:50:40

So whenever you hear there's a topic or there's a dearth of this lesson, don't be quick to ask who's the chef?

00:50:41--> 00:50:53

Is he someone who has many 1000 people on his Facebook page. And he's someone who cracks a lot of jokes in his talks, someone who's willing to entertain us, he can do stand up comedy now, but your intentions are wrong.

00:50:55--> 00:51:29

We're not here to be entertained, we're here to learn. We're here to learn. We're here to listen to that which we need to know not that which we want to know. Or that which we need to hear. Not that which we want to hear. This is a footnote to the talk. The topic is not about how to seek knowledge, but Alhamdulillah you all here and it's an important topic, right? And in this point, needs to be reminded, and I'm not sure if any speaker shared this with you. If they have this is a reminder, if they haven't, this is a lesson. Whenever there's a topic, flock out of your homes. Why? Because the inheritance of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam is there. That's why we live in home. That is the

00:51:29--> 00:51:38

biggest hype. That is the biggest hype if Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was coming in, we run to him, we would. But he's not coming. But Al Hamdulillah, he left us knowledge.

00:51:40--> 00:51:46

And I was speaking to some of the brothers today. And I said make it a policy of marketing that and not the personality.

00:51:48--> 00:52:24

We also had this is a talk for another day. And we ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to grant it. But the point why I've said it is we need to discuss ways to introduce a laughter in our life, otherwise, this talk will not be complete. It will not be complete, we have to have a tangible benefit from this talk. When you go home today, you have to go home with something tangible, more than just the demand boost. I know. We have demand boost sessions we say ally we want any man Hi. And then when this lecture goes, the man goes as well. And it's true. How many rescue talks have we come to some and I say this to some of our fellow? I say Mashallah, you visited the city so many times? What

00:52:24--> 00:52:26

change Have you seen in there,

00:52:27--> 00:52:29

which demands us to change our approach?

00:52:30--> 00:53:04

We have to have a change in methodology as well. Right? Every organization measures the metrics to understand how successful the organized organization is or not in our data, we need to have the metrics as well. We've visited this community many times has it been a case where we visit them to say Mashallah domestic was full when I went and that's it, when he has to be law, law. And for you all as well to go home and for you to say, well, law here we went. And it was a powerful talk, Allah will be law, there shouldn't be no discussion about the mannerism of the talk Rather, they should be what inheritance we picked up today from Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam his inheritance and

00:53:04--> 00:53:30

what we are going to do to implement it in our life, we all must have handled telekinesis, understanding. I mean, mean so servants of Allah. Don't Drown in the heat of the moment, number one, number two, empathy. Number three, spread the Salam Assalamu alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. When you see someone who you have some shape and has placed something in your heart against him, that's the person go and greet him with the biggest greeting

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

for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said after Salaam abena can spread the Salam between yourselves this Salim is a means of earning the forgiveness of Allah subhanho wa Taala and the Salam is a means of extinguishing the fire in your heart and maybe the heart of the person you greeting

00:53:50--> 00:54:27

it's true, isn't it? How many times have we felt something against someone in the greeted us and holux we with gritted back while he comes along and look at the Salam Wa Alaikum salam wa Rahmatullahi wa barakato As salam o Allah commanded the Peace and blessings of Allah wa rahmatullah in the mercy of Allah wa barakatuh. And the blessings of Allah be upon you who can be angry with you after this. Right? So split the seller, the seller is not just a greeting, it's a drag, so inculcate with in your life, the spreading of the seller, especially to those family members who you might have something against, especially to those work colleagues or you might have something against the

00:54:27--> 00:54:27

Another point or servants of Allah, work with the Anwar Mohammed sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, as Islam has asked us to work with them, don't work with them based on their character. We work with them based on the character of Islam. What does this mean? Today, many times we find that on the day of read, we say, You know what? They gave my child 10 reals last year IID. So I'm going to give them 10 realtors, why?

00:54:56--> 00:55:00

We came from aamra they visited me so I visited them

00:55:00--> 00:55:08

I'll visit them as well when they went for ombre tint for tax, isn't it? If they found me, I'll phone them. But why don't you follow me? Okay. Oh, he doesn't phone me.

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

Go and tell him to phone me.

00:55:14--> 00:55:25

Right? We've become petty. We work with other people based on a character by a law work with them with the character of Islam. Did Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam work with people based on their character?

00:55:26--> 00:55:34

Did he when he went to Paris and they stoned him, and they filled his shoes with his blood. And the angel came to him and said

00:55:37--> 00:55:44

that the order is standing. It just needs your Go ahead. And these two mountains will crush these people for what they did to you.

00:55:45--> 00:55:59

What did he do Muhammad? sallallahu alayhi wasallam What did he do? He may do it for them. This is Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam at his weakest moment will lie in some durations. He said the most difficult time for me was when I went to survive.

00:56:00--> 00:56:07

Did he not say after five Allah Khomeini Escuela de Vaca which Yama I complained to the weaknesses of my ability.

00:56:10--> 00:56:53

Working Latina he and my inability well Hawaiian Yama in the nurse and my weakness in front of them. This was when he was making to Allah subhanho wa Taala the most difficult time in his life by Allah. He said no. They don't know. Perhaps the generations will be believers. And by Allah Today tarrif is full of Muslims of great character. And these people are the progeny of those who stone Mohammed Abdullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam they enjoy being the people who fell underneath the door of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam La ilaha illAllah amazing. work with people yeah, in one way or how I work with him based on the character of Islam. Nothing of the state for tat attitude, nothing

00:56:53--> 00:57:06

for the state for tat attitude by Allah. If Allah subhanho wa Taala dealt with us based on tit for tat we would, nothing would exist, nothing would exist. Allah subhanho wa Taala says, or allow us

00:57:07--> 00:57:11

NASA Bhima Casa boo mataranka

00:57:16--> 00:57:57

Allah subhanho wa Taala said that if Allah held us accountable, for every single mistake and sin that we did, nothing would walk the face of this earth. To panda law, the punishment would be so severe that no insect could survive. No animal could walk this earth, no grass could grow La ilaha illa Allah Subhan Allah subhanho wa Taala says, If Allah held us accountable for every single mistake, so servant of Allah, and oh child of Adam, why have you become an accountant in holding people accountable for every single mistake of this? I say to you, my dear brothers, my dear sisters, forgive and forget. And start by forgiving your family members. I know that if you sat down

00:57:57--> 00:58:05

now and you contemplated, you will think of someone in your family who you don't have a good relationship with somebody who you've been distant.

00:58:07--> 00:58:12

From for years, someone who you haven't spoken to in a long time,

00:58:13--> 00:58:57

someone who might have hurt you, someone who might have harmed you, someone who you choose not to visit on the day, and choose not to call on the day of this day of unity. I'm telling you are servants of a line or children of Adam, as a fruit from this talk, as following the inheritance of Mohammed sallallahu alayhi wasallam I implore you, I asked you, each and every one of you sitting here and everyone at home watching, I implore you and ask you to fear Allah subhanho wa Taala and for the sake of Allah Subhana who if you can read for yourself and you can do it for your brother, then do it for the sake of Allah, pick up the phone and call them. Pick up the phone and call them

00:58:57--> 00:59:26

and ask them how they are. You don't have to bring about the past. But initiate something and by Allah Allah will raise you in ranks in this dunya and akhira insha Allah take this as a fruit Oh servants of Allah, we are looking for increased sustenance in our life. We are looking for a longer life, right? We all looking for this increased sustenance Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Man I have a Ubisoft Allahu philosphy well you say Allah houfy edgerly folia Surah rahima in another man have a Ubisoft Allahu

00:59:28--> 00:59:33

Allah houfy SRT foliose rahima Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said

00:59:34--> 01:00:00

that whoever wishes for Allah to increase his risk, his financial standing and material well being and wishes for Allah to grant him Baraka in his life. Then let him and his family relations, let him and his family relations. If you're looking for a job or you want a better job, then start by mending your family relations or sevens of Allah. And oh Children of Adam, have taken much of your time discussing this topic of forgiveness by Allah this

01:00:00--> 01:00:40

So much else we can discuss, but inshallah I hope that in the few words shared the importance of the topic has become clear, and in the few words shared, we feel inspired to make a difference. We feel inspired to make a difference for the unborn Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is an active and proactive oma, we said that he has something and we leave it hidden. We're not an oma that sees a problem and we shove it under the carpet by Allah we're not we an ohmmeter is active and proactive. We learn and we act we join between LLM and ultramel. We learn and we act and we don't delay in our acting for the angel of death could be sitting right next to us today at the university. I asked the

01:00:40--> 01:00:56

children, the students a question and I said, of servants of Allah, which one of you here for a billion dollars can take a person can take an oath I can swear by Allah subhanho wa Taala that the next breath I'm supposed to breathe, I will breathe.

01:00:58--> 01:00:59

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

No one can do that. Can you challenge Allah subhanho wa Taala

01:01:06--> 01:01:09

01:01:10--> 01:01:14
