[0:09][Music] foreign foreign there is no one that can say i am

[2:04]perfect i do not have mistakes i am errorless yes we have

[2:09]the mason we have the 14 infallibles and we have the prophets

[2:16]but other than the masomeen and the prophets the imams no one

[2:22]can say i am perfect i am flawless i don't have mistakes

[2:27]everyone has committed mistakes at some point in their lives everyone has

[2:32]committed some sort of errors at some point in their lives everyone

[2:40]has done mistakes that they are not proud of in the past

[2:45]that they are not proud of many people have a past but

[2:51]it varies from person to person some people have a very horrible

[2:56]past others have an average past and others have made minor mistakes

[3:03]but generally speaking there's many people with a past they are righteous

[3:09]now they are good they're good people now they're god fearing they're

[3:16]righteous now they don't have the mistakes that they used to but

[3:23]they have a past they've committed mistakes in the past and now

[3:32]their past is haunting them now they can't move forward they remember

[3:39]their past with pain with anguish with remorse and regret and they

[3:46]live with nightmares of their past and they allow their past to

[3:55]affect and influence their present and their future they're they're allowing their

[4:02]past to destroy their their present and their future it becomes a

[4:12]complex for them their past it becomes a complex they can't get

[4:17]over it they can't get over the mistakes that they've done in

[4:19]the past it's taken a a heavy toll on them to the

[4:25]point that it paralyzes them it affects their lives their relationships their

[4:35]business their friendships their marriage their relationship with their children it all

[4:42]is affected why because they allow their past to affect their present

[4:48]and it could affect their future now it's regardless of what a

[4:56]person has done in the past there's a lot of people that

[5:01]have committed mistakes they that have done things that they shouldn't have

[5:05]done now they're not very proud of what they've done they've done

[5:09]things they're not very proud of perhaps they were in a relationship

[5:15]that is forbidden in faith and in religion they were in a

[5:21]haram sort of relationship and they knew that they shouldn't have been

[5:24]but they did maybe more than one relationship over a certain amount

[5:30]of years over a certain amount of over a certain period of

[5:35]time maybe they did things that they were not supposed to maybe

[5:40]they they engaged in because of this relationship maybe they engaged in

[5:47]acts and behaviors that were forbidden that are haram maybe it was

[5:53]even worse than that maybe some got pregnant or they got someone

[5:57]to be pregnant maybe they were forced to have an abortion and

[6:03]abort the fetus maybe there are some that use drugs in the

[6:11]past or used alcohol in the past or maybe were even addicted

[6:16]to one or both there are some in the past they took

[6:21]money that didn't belong to them they borrowed money and they never

[6:28]returned they i don't like to use the weird the word stole

[6:32]but it is stealing when you take people's money without their permission

[6:37]with any sort of justification you take it as a loan or

[6:42]you take it in the name of partnership in a business and

[6:45]you take what does not belong to you there's people with all

[6:51]kinds of pasts there are some that were into gangs and were

[6:56]involved in in gang violence there were some that were involved in

[7:00]fights maybe there are some that went to jail in their past

[7:04]or engaged in in corruption they were in a political position and

[7:11]they misused that position they misused they misused the money that was

[7:16]under their control most people have passed a lot of people have

[7:24]passed why because that is human nature human nature humans are not

[7:27]errorless they're not infallible except the exceptions that we mentioned prophets and

[7:34]imams everyone else everyone has a past everyone's committed mistakes everyone has

[7:39]done mistakes that they're not proud of and and when they remember

[7:45]their past mistakes it brings them pain and anguish it brings them

[7:48]stress and anxiety and anxiety it could even be destroying their lives

[7:53]at the moment it could be destroying their relationships it could be

[8:00]destroying the life of their children thinking that their children will commit

[8:04]the mistakes that they committed when they were their age and so

[8:08]forth this is a problem when your past begins to haunt your

[8:13]present and begins to haunt your future when you allow your past

[8:17]to destroy your your present and your future this is a problem

[8:22]is it possible that a person can overcome their past and move

[8:32]forward to a brighter future and to improve their present is it

[8:39]possible to deal with a very negative past to build a brighter

[8:45]future absolutely this is possible not only is it possible but it's

[8:53]been done by millions of people and today we will walk through

[8:56]this journey of how a person who is righteous today can overcome

[9:03]the mistakes of the past and how can this person move forward

[9:08]to a better future inshallah first of all my dear friends let

[9:15]us remember a very very important point and this is something that

[9:20]we should never forget and that is that allah azzawajal is all

[9:23]merciful allah is all forgiving there's not a sin that allah doesn't

[9:30]forgive from our past any sin that we've committed out of ignorance

[9:37]or out of being tricked by the shaitaan or being tricked by

[9:45]our nafs we allow desire to take over us we allow temptation

[9:51]to fool us and we committed mistakes and now we are truly

[9:57]remorseful now we truly regret we regret that past we like to

[10:01]run away from that past we're embarrassed of what we did or

[10:09]who we were or what sort of past we had we're ashamed

[10:12]of it we're embarrassed of it we'd like to change it but

[10:18]we can't because you cannot erase the past remember that allah azzawajal

[10:23]is all forgiving allah accepts our repentance if we truly repent sincerely

[10:29]and we are truly remorseful allah will forgive us in fact feeling

[10:35]remorseful in itself is seeking forgiveness it's a form of repentance he

[11:00]if feeling remorseful for sins that we've committed is repentance then i

[11:10]by your grace i feel remorseful for what i've done i feel

[11:14]regretful for what i've done of course imam zayn abedin is errorless

[11:17]he's sinless but he's teaching us he's teaching us how to overcome

[11:26]a past and to look forward to a future he's not saying

[11:29]this for himself he's saying this for his companions for his followers

[11:35]for his lovers those who follow his school of thought forgives my

[11:41]dear friends no matter what we've committed in the past any sort

[11:46]of sin any sort of mistake that we've committed in the past

[11:51]if we are remorseful and we work regretful and we repent to

[11:55]allah and we want to start new allah will start fresh with

[12:01]us allah will open a new page with us allah is ready

[12:04]allah is willing to start fresh with us if we are willing

[12:09]to start fresh if we are willing to start a new chapter

[12:11]in our lives and overcome our past mistakes and make amends for

[12:18]our past mistakes allah will start fresh with us allah will forgive

[12:22]in tell s servants those who those who went after temptation those

[12:48]who went after sin those who indulged in sins do not be

[12:57]despair of god's mercy do not lose hope in the mercy of

[13:04]allah forgives all sins all sins don't say i've committed a sin

[13:10]that allah will never forgive me i was in a haram relationship

[13:15]i did this i i got pregnant i had an abortion i

[13:19]did drugs i did alcohol i i was part of a gang

[13:25]i allah forgives all sins if you come clean if you come

[13:29]clean and you admit to allah your fault if we i speak

[13:34]in in plural if we come clean and we admit to allah

[13:37]our faults and our sins and our past mistakes allah will start

[13:41]fresh with us allah will forgive then emphasizes he is the all-merciful

[13:52]he is the all-forgiving in a in another verse allah says is

[14:15]the one who forgives zafar is the one who continuously forgives allah

[14:23]is not just one of the 99 names of allah but allah

[14:29]has also meaning he will not just forgive us once but twice

[14:33]three times four times every time we committed sin and we repent

[14:39]to him and we seek forgiveness sincerely remorsefully we're not joking we're

[14:46]not it's it's not theatrical it's we're not putting up a uh

[14:51]theatrical moment but we are sincere allah forgives i am all for

[15:01]giving i am continuously forgiving to those who believe and do good

[15:10]those who repent and those who believe in those who good deeds

[15:16]who are guided allah continuously forgives he doesn't just forgive us wants

[15:24]we commit a mistake we seek forgiveness you'll forgive us commit another

[15:29]mistake truly seek forgiveness and he forgives he keeps on forgiving he

[15:32]keeps on forgiving this is the merciful lord that we have when

[15:37]you have a lord like this how can you despair how can

[15:39]you say that my past will destroy me and i have no

[15:44]future i have no present and i have no future you can

[15:48]say this if you did not have a merciful god if you'd

[15:51]ne if you did not have a continuously forgiving about god but

[15:55]when we have allah azza who is all merciful we have all

[16:01]hope in his mercy in another verse allah says of those who

[16:15]believe they come to you those who believe in our signs they

[16:19]come to you meaning they come to seek forgiveness to start fresh

[16:23]they come for guidance tell them peace be upon you allah has

[16:27]written upon himself has made it mandatory upon himself to be merciful

[16:35]he made it binding upon himself mandatory upon himself to forgive when

[16:42]we have a merciful lord like this that he's made it mandatory

[16:45]upon himself to forgive to look away to start fresh to forgive

[16:56]our sins how can we have the spirit is not necessarily ignorance

[17:21]but out of uh shallow mindedness out of of forgetfulness out of

[17:28]ignorance out of not paying attention out of not and not concentrating

[17:40]and then he repents after that and fixes fixes the problem allah

[17:48]shall be all merciful of course there's a very important point and

[17:52]that is if we committed there's two types of sins one type

[17:55]of sin if we committed sins that is only between me and

[18:01]allah azzawajal i didn't affect anyone else allah can forgive and allah

[18:07]will forgive and allah has promised to forgive you committed a sin

[18:11]it's between you and allah you didn't hurt anyone else but there

[18:15]are another type of sin where it's not just between you and

[18:20]allah but you hurt people you affected them you verbally hurt someone

[18:24]you physically hurt someone you took someone's money you're injured someone you

[18:29]backbite it against someone here that person has to forgive you as

[18:34]well not just allah but that first that person also has to

[18:39]forgive you or forfeit the right and forgive you then allah will

[18:46]forgive so here was means they fix their problems come clean to

[18:50]allah seek forgiveness and fix your problem go and do what you

[18:56]have to do go and do what you have to do you

[18:59]you in the past you didn't pray now come and pray in

[19:01]the past you didn't fast coming fast you didn't pay homs now

[19:06]you can pay homes if you violated people's rights a few violated

[19:11]people's freedom if you hurt people go and fix your problem with

[19:14]with others let them be satisfied let them forgive you and then

[19:17]come clean to allah allah will start a new page with you

[19:22]in sha allah so many verses if we read the quran from

[19:28]beginning to to end we will discover that allah is all merciful

[19:30]there's not a sin that allah doesn't forgive every day every day

[19:36]how many times a day do we do we say bismillah allah

[19:40]has 99 names yet he chose for us to repeat this day

[19:45]in and day out the all-merciful the all-compassionate allah has many names

[19:53]allah could have chosen other attributes for us to repeat every day

[19:57]but he chose these so this is the first step towards overcoming

[20:03]a difficult past a negative past a bad past is to make

[20:09]amends with allah as to repent to allah and seek forgiveness and

[20:14]allah will forgive inshallah this is the first step this is a

[20:18]cornerstone the second step my dear friends is that we forgive ourselves

[20:23]we forgive ourselves if allah can forgive us can we not forgive

[20:32]ourselves there are some that live they're tormented over what they've done

[20:36]in the past whatever it is that they've done they live in

[20:41]they live in torment they're tormented they're tortured they have stress they

[20:48]have anxiety of what they've done in the past they keep punishing

[20:51]themselves for their past mistakes now it is time once you've sought

[20:59]forgiveness from allah it is time to forgive yourself and to move

[21:08]on there are some that cannot live they live with negative thoughts

[21:13]day in and day out from morning till night they have negative

[21:17]thoughts of what they've done in the past and they feel that

[21:19]their pa their past is haunting them and their past can destroy

[21:22]them the past mistakes that they've done it is destroying them that's

[21:30]destroying their lives these negative thoughts that is that are paralyzing them

[21:35]that are not allowing them to move forward enter the and to

[21:41]live their life to the fullest and to enjoy their life these

[21:44]these thoughts need to be blocked away you need to move on

[21:48]you need to live your life you need to enjoy your life

[21:52]you need to enjoy your family your friends what you have in

[21:58]this life enjoy it move on move on if allah azzawajal could

[22:04]forgive you forgive yourself as well you are not the only sinner

[22:08]on this planet you are not the only person that committed a

[22:12]sin or a crime or as they passed everyone has a past

[22:16]if you've committed a mistake in the past others have committed mistakes

[22:20]in the past if you've done things that you're not proud of

[22:24]everyone has done things that they are not proud of it's relative

[22:29]it varies from from person to person but we all have mistakes

[22:32]every person has done something in the past that they're not proud

[22:35]of we are humans to human to be human is to be

[22:41]as as to is to have errors as to have sins is

[22:47]to have mistakes that is what being a human being is all

[22:53]about that you're not perfect although you're not perfect but you try

[22:58]to improve that is the essence of of being a human being

[23:01]that you you have mistakes but you can still move on and

[23:05]you start fresh and you make amends and you repent and you

[23:11]seek forgiveness and you move forward you need to stop the stress

[23:14]you need to stop the anxiety you need to stop the depression

[23:20]yes embrace your past acknowledge acknowledge the past do not deny it

[23:28]do not deny it to yourself not others do not deny it

[23:32]to yourself embrace your past embrace your mistakes but now move forward

[27:35]have to start fresh and you have to learn from your mistakes

[27:40]you have to be very careful now all of us and i

[27:45]speak for myself we cannot be naive we have to monitor ourselves

[27:47]so that we don't fall in the same mistakes as we did

[27:53]in the past we shouldn't look for temporary pleasures or follow temporary

[27:58]whims we have to be very careful what was the mistake that

[28:03]we committed in the past today we have to monitor ourselves and

[28:06]monitor our nafs monitor our thoughts completely so that we learn from

[28:14]our mistakes what was it what was our weakness was it drugs

[28:20]was it the opposite gender was it alcohol was it money was

[28:24]it violence today we have to monitor ourselves very carefully so that

[28:27]we do not fall in the same traps again swallowing the same

[28:31]mistakes again this is very important also my dear friends in order

[28:40]to overcome a past a difficult past and move toward a bright

[28:46]future there are some things that are best to be kept in

[28:51]the past and not to be shared with anyone in the present

[28:53]nor in the future there are some there are some secrets that

[29:00]have to remain with you and they die with you and they

[29:07]be taken to the grave with you you don't have to share

[29:10]your secrets with everyone today you have a friend that you feel

[29:12]you can trust you share your deepest secrets from the past if

[29:18]you've done mistakes in the past these are secrets that no one

[29:22]knows about you entrust a friend or you casually tell a friend

[29:25]this is a mistake today this person is your friend tomorrow that

[29:28]person can be your enemy be careful of who you share your

[29:34]secrets with you don't need to tell people stories of your past

[29:41]you don't need to tell them incidents and stories of your past

[29:45]to others just like you have a past the person that you're

[29:48]telling also has a past he's a person just like you she's

[29:55]a human being just like you if you have committed sins in

[29:59]the past that person has also committed sin sins in the past

[30:02]you don't need to tell anyone keep your secrets with you it

[30:05]is best to keep what you've done in the past in the

[30:09]past and don't share them in the present don't share them in

[30:11]the future because some people can be very harsh some people can

[30:17]can be very merciless and they share your secrets with others some

[30:22]people have the love for gossip the love to back by as

[30:26]soon as they discover a secret they have this uh pleasure of

[30:31]wanting to share other people's secrets they don't share their own secrets

[30:35]with others because it affects their reputation it affects who they are

[30:41]it affects their family it could affect their future but they love

[30:44]to share secrets of others with others so you have to be

[30:52]very careful of who you trust sometimes when you tell people your

[30:58]your secret if one person knows there's a potential of 100 people

[31:01]knowing you have to be yeah you have to be very careful

[31:04]as soon as one person knows your secret that means a hundred

[31:08]people could know your secret be careful of who you trust of

[31:11]who you tell your secrets to and it is best not to

[31:15]share your secrets with anyone from the past share your secrets with

[31:20]allah azza the only one you should admit to and speak to

[31:24]and share your secrets with is allah tell allah about your past

[31:28]let us tell allah about our mistakes in the past allah is

[31:33]all attentive all hearing allah will listen to us and by sharing

[31:40]with him our secrets secretly with allah and by admitting to him

[31:44]our fault we will feel better and allah azzawajal he will listen

[31:48]attentively and then forgive us and start fresh with us tell whatever

[31:54]you want to allah that is why we have salah that is

[31:59]why we have dua that is why we have salah to lay

[32:00]so that we may speak to allah in the most intimate manners

[32:04]share with him our secrets is not just for saints it's also

[32:11]for sinners it's also an opportunity for some to start fresh with

[32:15]allah start with salah in the last [Music] confessed admit to him

[32:23]what you've done in the past you don't you don't need to

[32:27]tell any human being you don't need to tell anyone else other

[32:30]than allah azza whoever we tell is a sinner himself and herself

[32:36]through salah through dura through quran through we speak to allah and

[32:43]we share our secrets to him and only him on a similar

[32:49]note i must say here that we have to be careful of

[32:54]what we do with people's secrets if you are someone that was

[32:57]entrusted by someone and given a secret don't break someone's trust if

[33:08]someone ever entrusted you with the secret don't break their trust don't

[33:11]go out and exposing people secrets telling people what you heard about

[33:16]this person or that person or even if you were not entrusted

[33:21]but you heard a rumor or you saw with your own eyes

[33:24]or you read somewhere or you saw something which is a secret

[33:29]that others don't know about don't go around exposing people's secrets and

[33:34]people's mistakes and people's past because what goes around comes around it's

[33:40]like a ball you throw a ball and it will immediately come

[33:44]back at you if you expose people secrets don't think that your

[33:51]secrets will not be exposed no the same thing that you do

[33:56]unto others and when what you wish for others i will come

[34:00]back to you the hadith says he who exposes the secrets of

[34:15]homes and families the secrets of his home and his family his

[34:22]personal secrets her personal secrets will be exposed you think that when

[34:26]you sit and you backbite and you gossip and you spread rumors

[34:29]about someone who did something secretively but you saw you caught them

[34:34]you saw them you have this knowledge does this give you the

[34:38]right to share this knowledge with others to share this information the

[34:43]sensitive information that can damage people's reputations it could be it could

[34:49]damage people's lives it could end people's marriages it could destroy their

[34:54]businesses it could destroy their lives it could take a toll on

[34:58]their families and on their children you come and easily expose their

[35:03]secrets just as just like you would drink water it's as simple
