[1:42]slalom Hamid Wadi Muhammad at the beginning of our discussion we started

[1:56]the talk about the story of the Canaan as we briefly spoke

[2:07]we said that in surat al-kahf it is the only time when

[2:13]the story of the local name is mentioned and the stories of

[2:20]the quran they contain examples of real personalities whom we can connect

[2:28]to and derive lessons from and one such personality is this individual

[2:32]nein we said that there are some discussions about who the personality

[2:44]of the local nein was there were some opinions for of them

[2:48]that we discussed where one that he may have been Alexander the

[2:53]great but we said that's probably not the case the other example

[2:58]or the other theory suggests that he was one of the kings

[3:02]of Yemen but we also said that it may not be the

[3:07]case because the dam that will Canaan built as we later on

[3:09]we'll find insha'Allah as we read the verses of the Quran the

[3:12]description of that dam does not fit the description of the dam

[3:16]that is famous in Yemen that is made of different material so

[3:19]it may not have been one of the kings of Yemen a

[3:23]third theory suggests that it may have been Cyrus the Great the

[3:26]Persian king who lived five hundred thirty years bc and he is

[3:34]mentioned in the Torah he saved the Jews so it may have

[3:40]been Cyrus the Great that's a possibility but we said there's a

[3:44]fourth theory which suggests that may not have been any of those

[3:46]three a personality that we may not have recorded in history because

[3:53]it was so long ago as per some of the hadith that

[3:55]suggests he lived at the time of prophet ibrahim alayhis salaam so

[3:58]if that were the case it means that he is not any

[4:03]of those three personalities above but rather he was a king who

[4:08]lived sometime before that point we also said why is he called

[4:16]the Canaan again there are many theories out there we said one

[4:21]theory suggests that he had a helmet with two horns another theory

[4:24]suggests that he ruled the e the horn of the east and

[4:29]the horn of the West and that's why he was called the

[4:31]two you know the man of the two horns and a third

[4:36]theory that we discussed as described by imam ali of nabi of

[4:42]allah valley his salaam was that he was a king who was

[4:43]a devout worshipper of Allah subhana WA Ta'ala he used to preach

[4:48]to his people to his community believe in Allah but they beat

[4:51]him once on his head created a bump so he did not

[4:57]stop after resting for some time he comes back again and he

[5:02]again starts to preach to his people advocating them to believe in

[5:07]allah subhana wa ta'ala they beat him again on his head which

[5:09]created another bump so he had kind of a couple of bumps

[5:13]on his head and that's why he was called Vil Canaan the

[5:15]man with the two bumps these are among the theories out there

[5:18]nonetheless we said that the Holy Quran does not discuss any of

[5:24]these things it does not discuss his name what was his real

[5:26]name is not mentioned in the Quran Quran gives a description of

[5:33]him their cognate an adjective of his colon does not mention whether

[5:38]he was a king or a prophet Quran does not mention his

[5:44]personality all these things are not mentioned however Quran talks about the

[5:49]story and from the story we can learn that this was not

[5:55]an ordinary king he was a great king Allah subhana WA Ta'ala

[5:59]says in nomicon Allah who fell out of we enabled him on

[6:07]earth in other words we enabled him to find the resources not

[6:12]only the resources Whataya home in kulli shay'in Sababa we gave him

[6:21]the keys to each and every detail on earth for example if

[6:25]he wants to build a wall he knows exactly what resources he

[6:31]needs he knows where to find these resources he knows how to

[6:35]dig them he knows how to build them so he's got all

[6:39]these methods under his belt allah subhana wa ta'ala gave him all

[6:44]this knowledge to this king and we said not only were they

[6:52]provided to him Allah says fat basa Baba he used these means

[6:54]it's one thing to have the resources it's a different thing to

[6:59]use them not only did he have them he also used them

[7:06]and we said if you remember the last time that this suggests

[7:10]to us that this universe is governed by a system of laws

[7:18]there are many laws that govern this universe for example the law

[7:22]of conservation of mass mass is conserved the law of conservation of

[7:27]energy energy is conserved in Newton's laws these are some laws of

[7:35]physics there are some laws in this world not only this if

[7:42]we want heat you can't just sit down here and say Ya

[7:45]Allah provide me with heat you got to put some effort into

[7:50]achieving the heat either ignite a fire heat up the furnace etcetera

[7:54]etcetera but you have to use the means there are tools in

[7:57]this universe these laws these tools suggest to us that there has

[8:06]to be a creator and maker who designed this entire system it

[8:12]could not have just come out of vanity a friend of mine

[8:20]was taking some classes at a university in Canada called the University

[8:24]of Toronto it's a very big university in Canada in fact one

[8:27]of the best universities in Canada he says I was taking a

[8:35]class on astronomy as an elective one day he says the professor

[8:38]who was teaching the class he was talking to us you know

[8:43]about this this universe our galaxy nor the different planets in our

[8:47]galaxy the different you know moons of each planet etc etc I

[8:52]was just describing the Milky Way galaxy he says as he was

[8:58]giving this description the professor then paused for a second he looked

[9:03]at us and he said that it is difficult listen to what

[9:10]this professor said it is difficult to believe that all this into

[9:15]existence by coincidence a professor of astronomy at the University of Toronto

[9:23]it's hard all this meticulous calculation how by luck through an explosion

[9:32]a random explosion well maybe there was an explosion maybe there was

[9:36]a big bang we're not denying that but that must have been

[9:41]a calculated explosion it was not just a random it was a

[9:47]calculated creation a calculated design so this system proves to us that

[9:54]there has to be a designer of the system the system cannot

[9:59]come from vanity and therefore all those scientists writers no matter how

[10:06]good of writers they are who questioned the existence of God one

[10:11]thing is they're stepping out of the boundaries of their expertise you

[10:17]might have a scientist who's an excellent physicist for example yes in

[10:21]physics he's great but when it comes to theology that's not his

[10:24]business he's stepping out of his business it's like for example having

[10:28]an engineer giving an advice on medicine well that's not just his

[10:32]job so he might give you some advice but it may not

[10:36]be the good advice or the best advice it's not his business

[10:40]or a doctor giving you an advice about architecture again it's not

[10:43]his job he might have some idea about it but this is

[10:46]not his job in fact when you have a building that needs

[10:50]to be certified you must have an engineer who's certified engineer in

[10:53]his pur typical specific field who must the stem you know they

[10:56]call them two professional engineers you must have a professional engineer in

[11:00]electrical engineering mechanical engineering etc etc so even if you have a

[11:04]professional mechanical engineer he cannot stamp on to the electrical aspects you

[11:07]have to have an electrical engineer even though they're both engineers but

[11:11]that's how specific it gets you need to have the experts these

[11:15]writers these professors they may be great in their field but when

[11:23]they step out of their field is just a matter of theory

[11:25]that they're proposing and that theory is up for discussion in fact

[11:32]that's may even go a step further part of my studies as

[11:36]and my PhD was actually studying kidney stones how they form and

[11:42]until today we don't know understand how they form and until today

[11:46]we attend conferences and you have two schools of thoughts on the

[11:49]formation of kidney stones in fact now there are three so you

[11:55]have scientists who are experts in the field they still don't understand

[11:58]how it works and they still differ they still discuss amongst each

[12:03]other about the formation and that's the experts themselves in their own

[12:08]fields but there's still discussion so imagine if we step outside our

[12:14]field then it's all up for discussion so what I would like

[12:17]to relate to you my brothers and sisters when you read such

[12:19]books written by such individuals don't be just taken aback by the

[12:27]name that you know so-and-so he's a professor of so-and-so dr.

[12:30]so-and-so well with all due respect we respect their fields of specialty

[12:33]you respect their science but when it comes to theology that's out

[12:40]of their field second no matter how good writers they are some

[12:43]of them are based basing their arguments on assumption as I discussed

[12:47]last time they were assuming things an assumption is not a valid

[12:51]scientific method that you just assume you have to have basis for

[13:00]the assumption now just like we have a system and the natural

[13:05]laws natural laws you know like I said well conservation of mass

[13:10]energy Newton's laws if you want heat you ignite a fire and

[13:15]so on so forth all these are laws one day it is

[13:16]said that musa alayhis salaam the prophet became ill so he turned

[13:23]to allah I said Yara my lord kill me allah subhana wa

[13:30]ta'ala said to him ya Musa take the medication and inshallah I'll

[13:35]give you the cure he said yes my lord but didn't you

[13:40]create the virus's cordon or the bacteria that caused my infection that

[13:45]caused my illness he said yes I did he said aren't you

[13:50]able to cure me well of course I am just well well

[13:56]then why don't you cure me Allah Allah replied he said ya

[13:59]Musa it's true that I created all the system but I also

[14:08]created means I created tools I created a system and I would

[14:11]like you to follow the system you have an illness there is

[14:17]a medication take the medication and then ask me for the Cure

[14:20]and inshallah I will cure you but don't just sit back and

[14:26]hope that the cure will come from Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'ala is

[14:29]just enforcing the system that i'm talking about that's why either just

[14:32]making sure that the system is working really well it's part of

[14:38]the system of talking about so you see there is a system

[14:42]that allah subhana wa ta'ala made and that's why i mama saw

[14:46]that this is just a side note here for you brothers who

[14:47]might be interested in this imam asada ELISA Lam says Lika leader

[14:53]in Dawa every illness has a cure the problem is just you

[14:56]and I have not yet discovered the cure yet we haven't discovered

[15:00]them yet and that's why scientists are always researching and researching and

[15:02]researching trying to find out the cure now just like in that

[15:08]system our natural system the materialistic system there exists laws there is

[15:14]another system my brothers and sister my sisters which is parallel to

[15:19]this system in fact it overlaps with the system but it's a

[15:25]hidden system what do I mean by that it's a system that

[15:31]operates in a completely different matter it's a system that we don't

[15:36]see a system that we may not physically characterize but it's a

[15:41]system that exists it's the system of the unseen the system of

[15:49]the hidden what do I mean by all this well let me

[15:51]take you first of all to a verse in the Quran can

[15:55]you guys help me out please what is the first surah and

[15:57]the Holy Quran you know if you if you take this book

[16:32]referring to the Quran it's a guide to those who are pious

[16:34]13 God worried okay now what is the first description of the

[16:41]muta beam and the Quran according to this order that we have

[16:43]with us the first description that's the first time the old mode

[16:47]tatin appears in the quran if you go with this order that

[16:51]we have what is the first description that Allah gives of those

[16:55]who are God worried pious god-fearing what is it dealer do you

[16:58]know what that what that verse next verse says what does it

[17:17]the respect man it's like it's almost going to put me to

[17:19]sleep here you know that's a lot of years the Prophet says

[17:23]raise your voice loudly when you hear my name because it removes

[17:26]the hypocrisy from the heart it purifies you so celada muhammad wa

[17:35]ala muhammad ali muhammad that was still okay there you know you

[17:39]guys can do a better job you know let's try this a

[17:43]third time so allah muhammad wa ala muhammad that's wonderful let's keep

[17:50]it up that way okay all the time please because there are

[17:52]some people who are falling asleep you know we need to kind

[17:55]of do the salat regularly so loud so that there's Beco you

[17:59]know like we disturb their sleep the first description as the sister

[18:05]correctly said is alladhina you mean ona they'll habe those who believe

[18:10]in what what is the hype what is hype the unseen things

[18:18]which is hidden so what does it mean well do you guys

[18:22]Sharla you believe in the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu either correct have you

[18:28]seen him no okay you haven't seen him you guys believe in

[18:33]Imam and Madea Jalal Allah father who Shelly is that right right

[18:37]I hope yeah have you seen him no but you believe he's

[18:45]also unseen you guys believe in paradise inshallah Jenna okay have you

[18:51]seen it no you believe in the Hellfire have you seen it

[18:58]no you believe in Allah subhana WA Ta'ala have you seen Allah

[19:02]No so the many things that are hidden many things that are

[19:06]unseen but we know about them either from the Holy Quran or

[19:13]from history or from the narrations of the Prophet sallallaahu valid the

[19:18]Imams alayhim wa salam they tell us and like I said few

[19:21]nights ago Jesus part of Sula Dean the roots of our religion

[19:26]and I said that we need to go with them through them

[19:28]step-by-step making sure that we understand our roots of the religion towhead

[19:35]adalah Noboa Amana and Mahad those five things we need to understand

[19:43]those and we can prove these things so part of this belief

[19:47]is that there is some things which are unseen we don't see

[19:52]them how do we know about them well the Holy Quran talks

[19:57]about them the Prophet speaks of them along Imams talk about them

[20:00]that's how we know of them there are some historical proofs for

[20:04]some of these facts like the prophet sallallaahu Ali we know he

[20:08]existed because of history so there are some proofs but there are

[20:13]there is this whole world which is the unseen world a man

[20:20]comes to rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi wasalam and he says you're

[20:27]a soul Allah I want to get rich now I think many

[21:57]end up enjoying them so I want a lot to love me

[22:03]okay great well what else do you want is well I want

[22:08]to be with you and Jenna that's why I see I thought

[22:10]that's why I thought he was a pretty smart guy so how

[22:13]many things that he asked for have you guys been counting six

[22:16]things masha'Allah but boy you know him I shot a lot this

[22:20]is a good man he's like you know that's why you guys

[22:23]should sit in the front you know do you guys attend University

[22:25]and you find the people who sit in the very front and

[22:29]you guys are like the people who sit in the very very

[22:30]back and then you look at the people sitting in the front

[22:33]and like these nerds you know these guys are these guys are

[22:35]the ones who always look us look bad you know it's these

[22:40]guys I don't tell you which group was I in back in

[22:41]those days you know but you know but when you stand as

[22:45]a professor you like the guys in the front you know that's

[22:46]that's that's something I can tell you so anyways look Salaam six

[22:54]things the prophet sallallaahu Alice said well these are six things that

[23:01]you've requested but you have to do six things in return to

[23:04]achieve those well what do I need to do yoga salon law

[23:09]well first of all what did he want you remember what was

[23:13]the first thing you asked for rich much I love that you

[23:15]remember for sure mashallah yet you won't forget that one I want

[23:20]to be a rich geographer Allah Allah Allah Allah Allah told him

[23:24]okay if you want to be rich then what you have to

[23:28]do you want to be rich yeah you do okay yeah I

[23:32]think so yeah I think that's what that's why you walked in

[23:33]at that moment you know yes so he said if you want

[23:43]to be rich pay you homes and use a cut the mandatory

[23:48]charity that you have to pay the mandatory taxes that you have

[23:52]to pay at the end of the holy month of Ramadan we

[23:54]all have to pay what what do we have to pay the

[23:58]cattle Fattah exactly there's a cut-off hapara you know as will be

[24:03]determined back then I'm not sure maybe ten dollars give or take

[24:05]each person the cattle Futaba homes which is twenty percent of the

[24:14]excess of your income so if you make for example someone makes

[24:16]you know hypothetically speaking let's say hundred thousand dollars a year but

[24:23]he pays taxes and he has a mortgage and he has car

[24:30]payments he has a family that he has to feed and he

[24:32]likes to take his family for a vacation and he does all

[24:37]these things at the end of the year after doing all these

[24:41]paying all these expenses let's say for example he's left with ten

[24:44]thousand dollars in the bank account then he has to take 20

[24:51]percent tax on this ten thousand dollars which is called homes you

[24:56]have to set a year and date you choose which date you

[25:01]want you can say for example my year end date will be

[25:04]the first day of Eid idol photo so every day every year

[25:09]on the day of Adel photo you log on to for example

[25:12]your online banking system use you know look at your accounts how

[25:17]much do I have in the you know and my accounts they

[25:19]take 20% off and that will be my homes that I have

[25:25]to pay the homes is divided into two portions the Imams portion

[25:30]and the say its portion that's a mandatory tax that we have

[25:34]to pay even if you have only $10 left in your account

[25:38]20% $2 you have to pay homes that's watch up next year

[25:44]again on the day of Eid you do the exact same thing

[25:47]you log on and you see how much I have and you

[25:50]can do there's some more details which of course I'm more than

[25:55]happy to discuss at a separate setting but that's just the basics

[25:59]of it the Prophet SAW Allah Allahu Allah told him you pay

[26:07]20% and that will make you rich you pay your home's your

[26:10]pay you zakat and that will increase your wealth question so if

[26:17]I pay my home send zakat and I sit at home and

[26:18]do nothing will Allah make me rich no what do I have

[26:25]to do huh go ahead and work you have to work you

[26:29]have to put in the effort lazily insani Allah Messiah you have

[26:37]to put in the effort so you got to go work try

[26:42]but then pay your religious taxes and that will increase your wealth

[26:49]well how does that work chase if I have $10,000 and I

[26:57]pay 20% off how much is 20% of ten thousand two thousand

[26:59]good job so you're left with how much eight thousand masha'Allah you

[27:03]know I'm proud of your math you know pretty good my friend

[27:06]pretty good what grade are you eight masha'Allah masha'Allah you know I'm

[27:10]proud of your system there you go to public school okay masha'Allah

[27:14]masha'Allah you should advertise which public's called you go to but you

[27:18]know not now all right so well I had ten thousand I

[27:25]paid twenty percent I'm left with a check like my money has

[27:28]decreased we say that's what we think but Allah subhana WA Ta'ala

[27:32]will pay you back Allah will increase your sustenance I have not

[27:38]yet seen a person who pays his homes or her homes but

[27:42]subhanAllah they come back and they say she hears my homes the

[27:46]following year this is homes again did Allah decrease your sustenance since

[27:52]last year no che money came in from where's where I'd even

[27:55]think about not a single person who pays their homes where they

[28:01]have complained that it was was not enough or it caused me

[28:04]some problems in my life how allah says in the quran smell

[28:08]arrahmani arraheem methyl adenine Fiona my Elohim FISA bill Allah Kamath Allah

[28:14]hub ambit at savasana Benfica listen bullet in me a - hubba-wha

[28:21]LA - Menasha the example of those who invest their money in

[28:25]the way of Allah is like a seed that grows into seven

[28:30]seats and each one of those additional seven seeds grows and to

[28:37]further hundreds more seeds so 700 times and Allah will increase to

[28:43]whomever he wills in other words could be even more that's a

[28:49]system which is the system of the unseen the materialistic system says

[28:54]I have to work hard which is good that's what I have

[28:56]to do the materialistic system says I gotta pay my taxes so

[29:02]that decreases 20% of my wealth but the unseen the hidden system

[29:06]says no that 20% will be replaced back to you in ways

[29:13]you can't even think about okay so that's one thing so that's

[29:17]how I can get rich okay I'm going to start paying my

[29:19]zakat my home so from now if you don't have a year

[29:24]end date you set a year and date that suits you and

[29:25]you stick to it every single year paying your homes and your

[29:31]zakat what else what else did he ask for he wanted to

[29:34]get rich but then what else did he want a long life

[29:38]the Prophet told him if you want a long life you got

[29:45]a visit you'll Ken so let Torah ham do you have a

[29:48]cousin do you have a father do you have a mother do

[29:50]you have a sibling do you have an aunt and uncle well

[29:57]stay in touch with them visit them or at least if they

[30:00]live far away call them be in touch with them doing so

[30:04]will increase your life how that I don't understand you know how

[30:12]is talking to my relatives increasing my life we say that's a

[30:16]system that Allah has designed just like when you want heat for

[30:19]example you set up fire that's a system for you to become

[30:25]comfortable with heat a system that Allah has designed to prolong your

[30:29]life is a hidden system where you have to visit your kin

[30:32]and the opposite is true if you have a parent that you

[30:39]disrespect well a avila god forbid a sibling that you sever your

[30:44]connection with Allah will shorten your life as a consequence so you

[30:48]decide if you want to have a long life or a short

[30:52]life that's your decision at the time of Imam al cabone alayhis-salam

[30:56]two brothers came out to do Hajj question which number is Imam

[31:05]al Cobb and what number what Imam was he like thirty ma

[31:08]fourth imam tenth imam twelfth imam what vii very good handle illa

[31:13]that's good you guys much I love to date you're impressed maybe

[31:15]we can school is doing his job so the seventh Imam alehissalaam

[31:24]at cover two people love to perform their Hajj two brothers on

[31:29]their way to Hajj they get into a fight they're brothers they

[31:34]got into a fight the fight heated up unfortunately they started calling

[31:40]each other names and they said you know to each other you

[31:42]know what I don't want to be with you anymore let us

[31:45]get out so they separated they parted ways they parted ways and

[31:53]they left after some time one of them performs his hedge and

[31:57]after Hajj he goes to meet Imam al Calvin alayhis-salam Imam and

[32:02]call them salam ala holly looked at him and said what happened

[32:06]between you and your brother on your way here the Imam knows

[32:14]Allah span wa'ta'ala tells him everything we do for an says Allah

[32:18]Emmylou they say our Elohim alikum wa rasuluhu l want me known

[32:22]perform your deeds Allah is watching his messenger is watching and the

[32:28]believers and the believers it's referring to the Imams alayhi masala not

[32:32]all the believers but the Imams they know of what we do

[32:38]Allah enables them to see what we do Imam will carve an

[32:41]ally salaam asked him he said what happened between you and your

[32:45]brother so the man became embarrassed a little bit it became a

[32:49]little bit embarrassed their mom said tell me he said well you

[33:00]have never sold some of the profit you know we got an

[33:03]argument we got in a fight then what happened he said then

[33:08]we parted ways so where is your brother now I don't know

[33:10]maybe he performed Hajj I don't really know I haven't seen him

[33:15]but I came I performed my Hajj he said do you know

[33:17]what happened to your brother he said no he said he never

[33:22]made it he died on his way to Hajj your brother died

[33:26]he didn't make it he said but what happened he said because

[33:33]the two of you fought you argued amongst each other then because

[33:38]you guys split allah subhanahu wata'ala and that unseen system where if

[33:44]you don't keep touch with your family your life will be shortened

[33:48]because of that system both of your lives were decreased and both

[33:55]of you were set to die before making it to Hajj but

[33:58]then how come I survived what happened to me he said you

[34:05]tell me on your way to Mecca as you parted ways with

[34:08]your brother you were walking you're getting to Mecca then you thought

[34:12]you know what I have an aunt who lives nearby here let

[34:17]me go visit my aunt before I go to visit Mecca before

[34:23]I do the pilgrimage since she's not too far from here so

[34:27]you went and visited your Amma your aunt because you visited your

[34:32]aunt that did what prolonged your life so you were given the

[34:41]time to perform your Hodge your brother never visited his aunt so

[34:46]whatever argument happened between the two of you ended his life and

[34:50]he never made it to Hajj now here is just a side

[34:55]point my brothers and sisters just something on the side here imagine

[34:58]imagine god forbid if you had a fight with your brother over

[35:06]the men or a Mina with someone who is a good person

[35:09]but maybe you just had an argument and they died without you

[35:15]being able to tell them I am sorry how would you feel

[35:17]imagine having to live with that pain for the rest of your

[35:24]life and imagine if that's where your mother or your father that's

[35:27]why I always take care of your siblings your parents you don't

[35:34]want to god forbid god forbid lose them and I have seen

[35:38]it happen as a sheikh I've seen it happen we attend funerals

[35:44]and you see sometimes children on the graves of their mother or

[35:48]their father weeping and saying I'm sorry I'm sorry for what I

[35:50]did to you and I look at them sometimes and they say

[35:55]you know it's good that you're apologizing not to add salt on

[35:59]to the wound but where were you when she was alive or

[36:02]when he was alive you wait now until he or she has

[36:07]gone into the grave that you say I'm sorry I'm sorry so

[36:10]while you're alive take that opportunity you don't want to leave this

[36:14]world god forbid or have them leave this world god forbid and

[36:20]live with the guilt that I never said sorry to them so

[36:24]imam al Calvin alayhis-salam told him because you visited your aunt Allah

[36:28]for long dear life and so you were able to perform your

[36:33]hide your brother however because he severed his connection with you Allah

[36:37]decreased his life and he never made it to hutch that's a

[36:41]system what's a hidden system we don't observe it we don't see

[36:44]it and that's why the Prophet told this man you want to

[36:49]live a long life then visit your kin keep in touch with

[36:53]them have that relationship with them okay so in order for me

[36:59]to live a wealthy life I need to pay my homes and

[37:02]my zakat my watch about the watch of taxes the obligatory taxes

[37:08]in order for me to live a long life I need to

[37:10]keep in touch with my kin my parents my family what else

[37:15]he has for a healthy life exactly a healthy life well the

[37:20]prophet sallallaahu Alice said if you want to live a healthy life

[37:26]then pay the obligatory charity what we call the sadaqa sadaqa so

[37:30]that that is not obligatory it's not watch if you don't have

[37:33]to pay it not like homes and zakat those are logic sadaqa

[37:38]is the non obligatory charity you see a poor person and you

[37:42]help them out an orphan whom you sponsor a widow you take

[37:46]care of her and so on so forth that's called sadaqa asada

[37:52]tattoo Tet fell belly yeah Siddhartha keeps all harm away from you

[37:59]well how does a sudden keep the harm away from me that's

[38:04]again assistant that Allah has designed a system that Allah has designed

[38:07]not only does it keep harm away from you we have many

[38:12]a hadith about Siddhartha in fact imam ali salam says if you

[38:16]are experiencing some financial difficulties in life if you have some problems

[38:20]in finances he says go pay sadaqa pay charity but you'll be

[38:23]like well I'm already experiencing financial problems you know how does that

[38:27]work say well pay whatever you can can you afford like a

[38:31]dollar go pay a dollar it's ten zero risk above siddhattha he

[38:35]says get the wealth of allah through siddhappa to a charity give

[38:41]charity it not only keeps harm away from you it also will

[38:47]increase your wealth so the prophet sallallaahu I have told him pay

[38:52]sadaqa and you will live a good healthy life insha'Allah okay well

[39:00]these are three things what was the fourth thing he asked for

[39:04]have friends exactly masha'Allah you know this friend of mine is really

[39:07]giddy and this Friday night you know I guess you had school

[39:12]over oh that's why okay I think you had a good sleep

[39:14]that's why I wash a lot very good so friends the Prophet

[39:20]SAW Allah they will add gave a very simple formula which is

[39:27]very easy to state but difficult to practice you want to have

[39:31]friends easy love for your brothers what you love for yourself simple

[39:41]simple to say but difficult to implement do we really love for

[39:47]our brothers what we really love for ourselves how many of us

[39:55]sit down and backbite people how many of us talk about others

[40:01]pick up the phone hello Salaam alaikum did you hear about her

[40:08]my god you know she oh I'm fasting yeah shall I gamma

[40:15]ban Kareem assalamu bye-bye or the brothers you know that guy never

[40:18]say salaam to him anymore well what happened the other day I

[40:23]was sitting in the Majlis he walked by me didn't even say

[40:24]salaam to me so you know what everyone boycott him and you

[40:29]know what wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute ah

[40:30]it's it's this guy that I have to pick up let me

[40:35]send our whatsapp here no one thousand people boycott so-and-so this guy

[40:39]does not speak to people and you should not speak to him

[40:43]and then hit the send button is that enough no no no

[40:46]wait wait wait email let me send an email is there anything

[40:51]else yes let me say Facebook Twitter let me call the CNN

[40:53]and have them announce it as well how many times have seen

[40:58]have you seen that happen my brothers and sisters in this community

[41:01]how many times have you seen that happen where people just spread

[41:06]rumors gossip so on so forth about others I heard what did

[41:13]you confirm no but I heard Imam Ali alehissalaam was asked a

[41:17]beautiful question he was asked what is the distance between half and

[41:22]Bothell truth and falsehood he said you see these four fingers and

[41:27]he went like this this that's the distance seeing versus hearing that's

[41:33]the distance reason hot pan Bothell you know when you hear something

[41:38]make sure it's real they say in the hadith even if you

[41:45]see something of a believer which may seem contradictory to the religion

[41:49]before you come to the judgement to the conclusion check you see

[41:53]a man for example a young man for example eating something in

[41:58]the month of ramadhan Oh a stuff for the law I thought

[41:59]he's a moment well maybe he's ill maybe he's got some illness

[42:05]and he can't fast you know so we have to really not

[42:07]jump to conclusions even when we see something love for people what

[42:15]you love for yourself very simple formula but very difficult to implement

[42:21]and that's where you find that swirl maitake a true pious person

[42:24]that's a system and one thing I tell you brothers and sisters

[42:29]I've attended many funerals subhanAllah one thing that people usually usually in

[42:36]most cases they remember of the deceased is his character or her

[42:43]character at luck most cases in most cases when they people want

[42:46]to eulogize the person who's just passed away in most cases I

[42:52]have rarely rarely heared people who say a liar Hamill can easily

[42:56]cath even Kanaka thickest a lot you know he used to pray

[42:58]a lot that I have not heard much maybe once out of

[43:03]all the funerals I attended they don't mention oh a layer Hamo

[43:08]can assume kind of so woman used to fast the month of

[43:10]rajab and Shaban and the month of ramadhan that you hardly have

[43:15]you guys heard this usually what do people talk about the clock

[43:19]is characteristic may Allah have mercy on him he used to help

[43:22]people well help people that's something of his characteristics that's what people

[43:28]remember of him all God how you know have mercy on him

[43:33]he used to donate well again that's a generous generosity that's a

[43:37]characteristic so that's what people remember that's luck you want people loving

[43:42]you well treat them with respect otherwise you know let me tell

[43:47]you something some people when they ask them and most of the

[43:51]North American and the materialistic world if you ask them can you

[43:56]name me the most successful people right now if I ask you

[44:00]can you name one of the most successful people who would you

[44:06]name yes bill gates okay yeah you also have someone who's more

[44:12]successful yeah who well I'll eat masha'Allah masha'Allah how old are you

[44:16]my sister 8 no wonder you say mom I'll even I be

[44:20]a pilot because as you grow up older then you start forgetting

[44:21]about your mom I'll even if you think of Bill Gates that's

[44:24]what happens you saw the contrast how beautiful it is you know

[44:31]in most cases what the brother just mentioned is it's true you

[44:35]ask people who do you think is the most successful people in

[44:40]the world today and they'll give you names like Bill Gates people

[44:44]who are billionaires people who might be in positions of authority prime

[44:49]ministers presidents etc governors people who have some kind of Fame these

[44:55]are the ones whom people usually associate success with is that not

[45:00]true but so what we have an example brothers and sisters are

[45:08]you with me here we have an example of someone who in

[45:11]this country is quite famous or maybe infamous I don't know which

[45:20]way to go he is a billionaire and he's the head of

[45:22]your whole country he's got all that authority he's got wealth fame

[45:29]power authority but let me ask you a question here honestly do

[45:33]people love him generally speaking so what to have all that fame

[45:41]is that really do you call that success he's got power he's

[45:44]got Fame he's got money he's got everything you need you know

[45:46]whatever you want to have in dunya from a materialistic world of

[45:52]you he has but people don't like him look what the New

[45:56]York Times writes about him if you read the newspapers and if

[46:02]you really want to read about him come to Canada and see

[46:06]what Canadian press writes about him so imagine you know and let

[46:13]me tell you something you know the man himself is not an

[46:17]idiot he knows this is how people about him deep inside he

[46:22]knows it because it's not hidden I mean he reads the papers

[46:25]and he writes hundred forty characters which is I think the maximum

[46:27]he can write you know so he gives what people say of

[46:34]him you know he knows it imagine living with that kind of

[46:40]a feeling where you know people just don't like you but you

[46:43]still want out govern you still want to rule you stuff is

[46:49]that success whereas you might have people who don't have nearly as

[46:53]much power nearly as much authority nearly as much wealth but people

[46:58]love them one of our Mirage lead one of our grand scholars

[47:06]or lama one of them a few years ago when the terrorists

[47:09]attacked Iraq and they swept almost two-thirds of the country two-thirds of

[47:16]the country was swept away within a matter of hours by the

[47:24]terrorist groups they started killing bloodshed one of our ulema one our

[47:29]Mirage attack lead one of our scholars supported by the others gave

[47:34]a fatwa asking people to stand up for terrorism and to defend

[47:44]the poor and to defend the defenseless what happened did you see

[47:52]what happened about three million people jumped to respond and the country

[47:58]was saved by the blessings of Allah and Allah will bethe alayhim

[48:02]as-salam and the blessings of these scholars that's why my brothers and

[48:06]sisters something on the side as well we need to have a

[48:12]lot of respect for our scholars grant scholars we should not criticize

[48:16]them abuse god forbid some of those scholars give them a lot

[48:26]of respect because they truly dedicate their lives for our safety and

[48:31]our protection if any of you has recently visited Iraq in the

[48:36]past six months or a year or two years if anyone of

[48:40]you has visited Iraq you have to say al hamdu lillahi rabbil

[48:43]aalameen Thank You Allah for blessing us with such great scholars because

[48:50]without those scholars you would not have been able to go and

[48:53]visit Iraq you would not have been able to go there if

[48:56]you've been to the holy shrines in najaf and karbala and cava

[48:59]mein and sama Gras then you have to really think a hamdulillah

[49:03]rabbul aalameen how could a man who has no army no military

[49:11]he does not have billions of dollars but people love him so

[49:16]much because he fears allah he cares about the people when you

[49:22]love for people what you love for yourself people will love you

[49:26]that's what the prophet sallallaahu told this man in addition he gave

[49:30]him one more advice he said try to stay away from people's

[49:36]money of course that's unnecessarily like you know don't go and try

[49:40]to take people's money and then lose the money but there are

[49:42]cases of course when people unfortunately go through some financial difficulties and

[49:46]then it's our duty as a community to support those who are

[49:52]in need so that was the fourth thing so one thing he

[49:55]said I want hello a wealthy life and the answer was what

[50:04]pay home send zakat he wanted a healthy life and what was

[50:07]the answer for that what is it sadaqa sadaqa exactly paying sadaqa

[50:18]the knobbly that's a healthy life to have a long life what

[50:21]do you need to do so that tehran visit your kin and

[50:27]to have people loving you what do you have to do love

[50:29]for them what you love for yourself and stay away from their

[50:33]money okay what else did he ask for but the fifth thing

[50:35]he asked for he asked for Allah stuff he said yeah I

[50:41]want Allah to love me so that's very easy you obey Him

[50:44]and he will love you obey Allah follow what he tells you

[50:53]to do Allah tells you pray pray fast fast take care of

[50:56]your relatives parents can take care of them stay away from gossiping

[51:01]backbiting stay away from that stay away from listening to Haram music

[51:05]and hang on things stay away from it don't watch Haram things

[51:10]how about movies and he will take care of you it will

[51:15]love you back but if we continue to disobey Allah subhana WA

[51:19]Ta'ala on a daily basis in the holy month of Ramadan I

[51:24]see sometimes youth here driving on these streets and masha'Allah the boombox

[51:29]is blasting I don't understand how their ears keep with it but

[51:35]we do all these things and we say Ya Allah help me

[51:40]well Allah may be out of his greatness out of his kindness

[51:46]might help us but we really have to really understand we have

[51:50]to love Allah back love him back means obeying him so that's

[51:56]something we need to do you love Allah you obey Him and

[52:00]he will love you back and finally he said I want to

[52:03]be with you in Genoa Rasul Allah he said sure you want

[52:06]to be with me in Jannah prolonged usage oude to Allah so

[52:12]when the salat ends for example go to Sasha and say Shukra

[52:15]lela lela lela alhamdulillah alhamdulillah alhamdulillah if you have a need go

[52:23]into such there and say o Allah I need this and this

[52:25]and this so prolong your SuJu to allah subhana wa ta'ala and

[52:33]inshallah you will be in my state in jannah do you see

[52:35]how all these things are connected but they all run on a

[52:42]different system the system of the unseen a system that we don't

[52:45]realize do ah is one of beautiful ways to get closer to

[52:53]Allah to conquer all the systems do our prayers tomorrow is lailatul

[52:57]cuddle my dear brothers and sisters do not miss out it's a

[53:02]great night lailatul cutter is not just one night apparently from some

[53:07]of the other Wyatt it is consisting of three nights collectively the

[53:15]eve of the 19th the 21st and the 23rd we al hamdulillah

[53:20]were able to pray some of the doors on the eve of

[53:57]me and then shall i you will get what you asked for

[53:58]like i mentioned last night your doors will definitely be accepted it's

[54:04]just that a matter of when they will be answered and how

[54:06]they will be answered we need to pray to allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala

[54:12]Allah listens to us he loves to listen to us that system

[54:19]of the unseen world we need to realize that it exists and

[54:25]it's a powerful system we need to turn to allah subhana wa

[54:28]ta'ala to achieve the blessings of that system I'll conclude with this

[54:33]story where a man once says one of the ulama one of

[54:50]the scholars says I saw in my dream that the local cemetery

[54:55]the local cemetery people in the cemetery we're rejoicing except for one

[55:02]man I came to this one man in my dream and I

[55:05]said to him what is the matter how come you're not celebrating

[55:07]everyone else is celebrating he said all these people their children them

[55:13]are all paid sadaqa and gifted the thawab of the sadaqa to

[55:20]their parents my son however did not gift me anything that's why

[55:23]I've never seen a gift from my son so that's why I'm

[55:29]feeling like this that's when the eylem wakes up he goes and

[55:32]visits the son of this man he finds him a poor person

[55:37]back in those days people did not have the luxury of a

[55:39]washer machine do you guys have these clothes washer you know to

[55:43]wash your clothes you just put them there and press a button

[55:45]back in the old days that lecture he was not there people

[55:48]used to wash their hand you know the clothes with their hands

[55:50]now some of the wealthy people would not do it themselves so

[55:53]they would hire people there will be some poor people who would

[55:58]come collect your dirty laundry wash it and bring it back to

[56:00]you this person this is what he used to do for a

[56:04]living he didn't earn much he did not make much money so

[56:10]he finished it was cleaning the clothes at the riverbank and this

[56:13]eylem approaches him and he tells him listen last night I saw

[56:15]your father in the dream who says that you've never paid a

[56:20]charity and gifted it to his soul is that true he said

[56:22]yes that's true well why don't you give something to your father

[56:26]I'm so poor look at me you know I wash dirty laundry

[56:30]for God's sake whatever money I earn is barely enough to feed

[56:33]me and my family how do you expect me to give he

[56:37]said you don't have to give money give anything else what else

[56:40]can you afford anything he said well you know he had a

[56:45]cup like this he took a little bit of water from the

[56:47]river and dumped it onto the riverbank is that this water I

[56:53]give as a sadhaka to my father a charity that I give

[56:56]to her soul all right great that next night the hilum sees

[57:02]the dream again again he sees the cemetery this time he sees

[57:05]the father what do you think his state was happy or unhappy

[57:08]happy he was very happy this hilum approached him he says you

[57:15]look you've been showered with a Las blessings he said yes he

[57:21]said that charity that my son gave allah showered me with his

[57:25]blessings because of it he said but it was only a cup

[57:29]of water that's all he did so the alum is wondering that

[57:31]cup of water gave you all this he said yes he said

[57:35]there was something you don't understand he said what he said there

[57:39]was a little fish that had jumped out of the river onto

[57:42]the riverbank and it was dying when my son dumped that cup

[57:51]of water onto the riverbank it created a small stream where the

[57:56]fish was able to swim back and jump back into the river

[58:03]because of that Allah blessed me with his graciousness showered me with

[58:10]his blessings and you know what tell my son that I am

[58:18]praying for him and for his success this island says it was

[58:21]not long after this incident that I saw the same son who

[58:27]was so poor washing dirty laundry on the size of the river

[58:30]becoming one of the wealthiest people in the city because of some

[58:36]business that he tried and succeeded at all that happened because of

[58:42]what that charity he gave in the name of his father and

[58:45]the daughter of his father who was not even alive that's why

[58:49]in our traditions it is must have to go even to the

[58:54]grave of your parents and ask them to pray for you that

[58:56]is a system of the unseen that we don't understand but we

[59:04]believe in it because the Quran talks about it the Prophet talks

[59:08]about it will they talk about it and because there are numerous

[59:11]accounts that we have observed which tell us it exists tomorrow let's

[59:20]not forget about the greatness of the night and then shut Allah
