[4:50]of having taqwa and the holy prophet would remind us about taqwa
[4:54]and he was approached by a man by the name of her
[5:01]mom companion and he wished to ask Hassan I wish to gain
[5:13]taqwa I wish to have taqwa in my life I wish the
[5:17]people of the snow what can I do what should I do
[5:28]provide for me why is Imam at first responds with this in
[5:36]Allah he provides to him that's a verse from the Quran that
[5:43]if you have takwa if you are Allah is verily with those
[5:50]who have takwa it's rarely with those who perform Good Deeds her
[5:55]mom he wants more her mom he asks provide me war what
[6:02]more can I have what more can I do in my life
[6:07]to game taqwa this sermon is I recommend every single member of
[6:17]our community every single member in this world who wishes to truly
[6:21]gain taqwa to learn from the teachings of to learn from the
[6:29]sermon in response to her mom he says the people of taqwa
[6:37]whom they have great Noble characteristics they have great Noble signs and
[6:46]then he starts to list the people of taqwa their characteristics and
[6:55]signs the first one that he mentions he says the first sign
[6:59]of a person of taqwa home that when they speak they are
[7:13]well precise well clear precision shop that when they speak they speak
[7:21]to the point Direct sometimes people speak and they go on for
[7:29]hours and hours and hours and you still don't know what they
[7:31]want to say you still don't know what the topic is about
[7:36]you still don't know what's their aim in what they're seeing states
[7:42]that the person of taqwa is when they speak they speak concise
[7:51]Direct good words that are what sharp precise and to the point
[8:00]he reminds us about not all kanam about speaking person who wishes
[8:12]to be of needs to know the importance of when to speak
[8:16]how to speak where to speak what to say for this tongue
[8:25]that we all have is a bounty is a gift that Allah
[8:33]has blessed and bestowed upon all of us interestingly I was reading
[8:36]a quote the other day animals most of them have very long
[8:42]or large tongues but they don't have the ability to speak and
[8:47]the languages that we have they don't have the ability to communicate
[8:51]in the same way that human beings have mankind human beings have
[8:59]a short tongue or a smaller tongue or in the terms of
[9:03]weight or mass a smaller tongue but the amount of speech and
[9:08]the amount of talking and the amount of excessive talking is way
[9:12]more sometimes we need to know that sharp concise to the point
[9:20]speeches of course of value hence the Hadith says that speeches like
[9:30]medicine foreign short speech concise speech speaking to the point is beneficial
[9:43]is needed is necessary we need to speak to with one another
[9:49]we need to communicate with one another can you imagine life without
[9:52]speaking with one another extremely difficult however excessive speaking is what artist
[10:01]is dangerous in fact one should be careful that's why sometimes people
[10:09]they have the wrong understanding about people who stay silent and speak
[10:15]when it's necessary they say oh why is that person so quiet
[10:19]they don't speak too much in our gatherings in a jealous in
[10:25]the times that we're speaking he speaks very little in fact they
[10:30]used to do this even during the time of the Holy messenger
[10:33]foreign and the holy prophet said if you see an AB quiet
[10:49]and Silent knows when to speak how to speak concise get closer
[10:58]to him foreign for he is a wise person he knows when
[11:08]it's appropriate to speak Alison this tongue that we all have the
[11:16]narration State a listen song the tongue is the scale of measurement
[11:26]of a human being the value of an individual is in what
[11:32]they say and speak as in how they communicate with one another
[11:38]fact the tongue and the Heart the listen and the pulp that
[11:46]we all have is something that needs to always be fine-tuned reformed
[11:54]ensure that we use it in the right and appropriate Manner and
[12:01]way the palm not necessarily the cardiac muscle here but and the
[12:08]center of awareness the center of conscience the center of understanding and
[12:16]Allah has mentioned in numerous times in the Holy Quran when it
[12:22]takes care of the organs and the limbs number one when it
[12:28]takes care of my lesson when it controls my tongue to speak
[12:39]well appropriately in good ways it is the best gift that we
[12:42]have used in the best of ways that's why we find there
[12:51]are many recommended Deeds with using the tongue in the best of
[12:58]ways and these nights and days are the nights and days to
[13:01]use the tongue in the best of ways remember Allah stays in
[13:07]the Holy Quran regards to the tongue and States born Heat that
[13:18]this tongue whatever you say and this whole body of ours whatever
[13:25]we do there is the two angels there are the two angels
[13:29]that record and write and are aware of my actions be aware
[13:37]of it before I say anything does it please the angel or
[13:41]does it make the angel who is recording my sins to write
[13:48]excessively about the sins of what I have been saying hence you
[13:53]find that we are reminded that that's one of the great Deeds
[14:01]to perform with our tongue is to constantly perform thicker of Allah
[14:05]to constantly remember Allah subhanahu Allah Allah foreign the morning I wake
[14:24]up I perform thicker and remember Allah as I'm going to work
[14:30]I remember Allah and this tongue which remembers Allah is a result
[14:39]of the heart that remembers Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala and this body
[14:44]which would be aware of Allah that the more I'm aware of
[14:55]Allah the more I wish to please Allah the more I wish
[14:59]to gain nearness to Allah and this body wishes to be careful
[15:10]about this pleasing Allah the more we have that awareness that sins
[15:15]are harmful for me because of my constant remembrance of Allah so
[15:22]we are reminded with this listen constantly perform thicker of Allah Prophet
[15:28]Musa asked Allah what is the reward of the one who performs
[15:33]the Dicker of Allah constantly foreign of Allah under the protection and
[15:53]care of Allah and is going to be on the day of
[15:56]judgment under the Arash of Allah of protection the little of Allah
[16:06]can of Allah that they care and protection of Allah why because
[16:12]in this world I constantly remembered and thought of Allah with my
[16:19]tongue and with my heart thicker of Allah what else am I
[16:26]recommended to do with this tongue of mine is to constantly with
[16:32]this listen recite the book of Allah the words of Allah the
[16:39]Kalam of Allah the book of Allah the Holy Quran remind us
[16:48]that one who performs the recitation constantly the Hadith says read and
[16:56]you'll be raised in your makam and your status in Jannah or
[17:02]the Hadith says whoever recites the Quran in their own home then
[17:07]it will be a source of Noor in their home whoever wishes
[17:13]a happiness and joy in their home in their family in their
[17:17]household then constantly recite the teachings of the Holy Quran whether it's
[17:29]the father whether it's the mother whether it's the sons the daughters
[17:33]they should have a constant regular recitation through the recitation of the
[17:43]Holy Quran within our own homes whether it's after salatul the father
[17:48]recites Quran and the words of the Quran Echo within the rooms
[17:55]and bedrooms I know of families who have installed sounds speaker systems
[18:05]within the homes and the father for example recites some verses of
[18:11]the Quran for all the bedrooms all the family members to be
[18:16]aware and he recites that Adam and they come together and recite
[18:21]together the recitation of the Salah together with the echoing of the
[18:26]verses of the Holy Quran how beautiful how honorable and what that
[18:32]means that we can use the advanced technology today on your phone
[18:38]play a few verses of the Holy Quran when you're in the
[18:44]car on your way to the journey towards work let the Quran
[18:47]recite and you recite with it let the tongue oscillate with the
[18:55]constant recitation of the Quran why is this some of us or
[18:59]some of our members when it comes to other words other lyrics
[19:06]other poems they've memorized it inside out back to front but when
[19:10]it comes to the recitation and the tilawa of the beautiful verses
[19:14]of the Huda of guidance we struggle and this is what we
[19:23]need to encourage one another the Knights of the holy month of
[19:26]Ramadan the days of the holy holy month of Ramadan are the
[19:34]days to gain that recitation in those words to constantly Enlighten our
[19:39]hearts and Enlighten our home number two reciting using our tongue the
[19:45]Holy Quran number three to constantly use our tongue our heart to
[19:49]constantly recite Dua Allah the holy prophets would remind us about Dua
[20:07]that constantly recite Dua Dua call upon your lord with your heart
[20:18]in recognition of Allah and your tongue reciting pleading pleading calling upon
[20:28]your lord for that supplication the duas that has taught us that
[20:37]Imam Zen has told to us foreign that's my tongue wants to
[20:50]constantly perform your recitation and thicker of Allah number three constantly accustom
[20:56]my tongue to recite Dua with my tongue number four allow myself
[21:05]to have that habit of constantly reciting Muhammad there is nothing more
[21:23]valuable heavier a servant a Believer on the day of judgment then
[21:31]what what's going to be a heavy token for me than this
[21:42]one who recites constantly recites salawat throughout your day throughout your nights
[21:49]the verse of the Quran says one of their Hadith States and
[22:10]the imams of the Alberta remind us about salawah states that one
[22:15]who recites salawat is become a mandatory that his sins have been
[22:22]forgiven his tawab has been increased his deeds and hasanat has been
[22:27]in Greece his sins have been reduced and his status has been
[22:34]raised in Jannah for the blessing of remembering and sending salutations upon
[22:39]the holy prophet and the progeny that's with my tongue to constantly
[22:44]recite salawat that is a beautiful deed what else should I do
[22:52]to constantly recite as a Dicker of Allah whether it's after my
[22:56]Salah whether it's after my Fajr my prayers to recite the thickerb
[23:07]that has been taught to us that a speech of which is
[23:14]a blessing in itself is not only for after Salah whenever you
[23:21]recite the Dicker one of the best form of Decker is to
[23:24]recite this Zara this was something that the Muslim would teach one
[23:31]another that what always recites 34 times 34 times 33 times alhamdulillah
[23:45]and 33 times subhanallah that was taught by our holy prophet too
[23:53]his beloved daughter as a material to all that you wish to
[24:03]ask for and as a spiritual you want some spiritual strength result
[24:11]you want to ask Allah for your needs start with remembering start
[24:19]with this initial dual and blessing that was taught to say that
[24:26]my the holy prophet who said that this is a source of
[24:28]Dua this is a source of blessing this is the best form
[24:36]of this that is highly recommended again with a recitation of our
[24:40]tongue with correctly pronouncing the words alhamdulillah subhanallah and also with this
[24:50]tongue the ayat in the Quran and the Hadith of course remind
[24:55]us with this song say nice words noble words good words Olan
[25:03]what kind of words I should say soft words truthful words that
[25:14]I accustomed my tongue to say the words that will truly bring
[25:20]someone closer to Allah closer to the remembrance of Allah that this
[25:27]tongue and heart which is the best form of communication is always
[25:33]accustomed to say the words that bring me and bring us all
[25:42]closer to Allah for the holy prophet and the imams of the
[25:45]al-bait would State a true Muslim who is a true muslimanas a
[25:58]true man A True Believer is one that everyone else is safe
[26:06]from his tongue and his heart so inshallah we ask Allah to

[26:21]they're speech is direct to the point concise Allah remembering the tongue
[26:26]in the best of ways using the tongue in the best of
