[0:00][Music] how can we enrich the feeling of God's presence first of

[0:10]all we should know we should know that God is always watching

[0:14]us Allah is always watching us whether we acknowledge or don't acknowledge

[0:19]Allah is always watching us and that doesn't change anything the only

[0:23]thing for so first you have to have knowledge to know that

[0:29]and the knowledgeable person is going to be very cautious they're going

[0:33]to be very careful but second we need to implement what we

[0:37]already know we need to act upon what we know that's why

[0:40]we you know we have them we have the Salah we have

[0:45]the fasting we have the Hajj we have all of these obligations

[0:50]and our religion Allah doesn't want me just to pray for no

[0:53]reason Allah doesn't want me to just too fast for no reason

[0:59]all of these prayers and acts of worship the purpose of it

[1:02]is to create the feeling of God consciousness so that you realize

[1:05]the presence of God and you realize that allah subhanaw taala is

[1:11]watching you so you do that every day in your life every

[1:14]day when you wake up for prayer why are you waking up

[1:18]to pray does anyone listening to you has anyone hearing what you're

[1:21]doing yes it's because God is watching you God is listening to

[1:26]you so the same God that's listening to you and your prayer

[1:28]is also listening to you when you're not praying as well he's

[1:31]also listening to you and watching you any other times dear during

[1:38]your life so the more we attain spirituality and the better we

[1:42]pray and the better we care for our prayers we will be

[1:47]able to reach that position where like Amir on minions says he

[1:51]says moderate to say and allow or a table about the who

[1:56]fee he says I did not see anything except I saw Allah

[1:58]before it after it and within it everything he sees allah subhanaw

[2:05]taala how do we do that one thing that you could do

[2:07]is you know in in Islam animal are Malu not everything is

[2:16]regarding your intention when you know that God is watching you and

[2:20]you're trying and you're always reminding yourself that God is watching you

[2:23]okay now I want to do something to acknowledge the presence of

[2:27]God now this cup of water I could drink the water and

[2:32]say I was thirsty I drink the water this is my bar

[2:38]I could take something and act as simple as drinking the cup

[2:41]of water and say I'm going to do this for a button

[2:45]and Allah Allah I'm going to do this to seek nearness to

[2:47]allah subhanaw taala now someone asks how can you seek nearness to

[2:53]allah by just drinking water it's all about your mindset you say

[2:56]I'm going to drink water so that I'm going to feel the

[3:01]energy I'm going to feel strong to worship Allah I'm going to

[3:04]eat food so that I could get closer to allah subhanaw taala

[3:11]I'll have the energy I'm going to work you're going to your

[3:13]job it's a job from 9 to 5 you're going to your

[3:16]job but you say you know what I'm going to go to

[3:20]a job so that because even working Balaban Myesha it's a type

[3:23]of the type of ibadah working at the type of ibadah but

[3:27]you also say I'm doing this so that I have halal money

[3:31]that I have halal risk halal sustenance and I'm going to spend

[3:35]that sustenance in a good way you go out with your children

[3:38]you go out your children you take them out to the park

[3:40]you say I'm doing the score button and a line to Allah

[3:44]because God wants me to be a good father to be a

[3:47]good role model I'm doing it for Allah so everything that you

[3:50]do in your life say I'm doing it for allah subhanaw taala

[3:55]if you you're doing it whether whether you would make the intention

[3:57]or you don't make the intention you're going to do that you're

[3:59]going to be drinking the water you're going to be eating you're

[4:01]going to work you'd be working you're going to have to spend

[4:05]on your family you're going to do all these things but if

[4:07]you are doing it just just without the intention you're not gonna

[4:13]receive the reward you're not putting yourself in the state of God

[4:16]consciousness but if you do it for Allah you're going to be

[4:21]doing what you're already doing anyways and Allah is going to reward

[4:26]you for it [Music] you
