[0:27]blessings of the Almighty God be upon his pure and beloved messenger

[0:35]the peak of his creation the symbol of humanity the holy prophet

[0:42]muhammad sallallahu alayhe wa ala long saliano muhammad and his immaculate progeny

[0:48]of the and bathed peace be upon them especially the leader of

[0:52]our time the awaited Saviour and Imam al-mahdi arjun allahu ta'ala firaga

[0:59]may God hasten his reappearance and make us all amongst us sincere

[1:16]wah maiiesh watch afar attend saya yaku level kiplyn min ha the

[1:24]one who intercedes for a good cause shall have a share of

[1:30]the good outcome and the one who intercedes for an evil cause

[1:34]shall have a share of the burden of the evil outcome sadat

[1:42]allahu la li u levine illuminates your hearts and minds with a

[1:48]very loud Salawat Allah Allah we have reached the last part and

[1:56]segment in our series on Shafa intercession we have examined the verses

[2:02]of the holy quran that address intercession and shafa we have examined

[2:10]the types of intercession we have examined eleven intercessors and the greatest

[2:17]of them being the holy prophet muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa la ilaha

[2:21]illa Allah muhammadun Juana Muhammad we have examined eight conditions for intercession

[2:28]we've also discussed a very important point does chiffon intercession embolden people

[2:35]to commit sins we have also examined Tolleson if someone has passed

[2:43]away a prophet has passed away is it valid to ask that

[2:51]deceased prophet to intercede on your behalf and also other righteous servants

[2:56]of God and tonight we will examine two very important discussions within

[3:04]the issue of chiffon the first is the position of the monotheistic

[3:10]religions when it comes to chiffon do we find the discussion of

[3:16]chiffon only in the religion of Islam what do other monotheistic faiths

[3:23]say about safar and secondly we will talk about a chiffon that

[3:28]this verse which I recited talks about which is intercession here in

[3:34]this world that is applicable to people helping one another let us

[3:39]now examine the first very important point is the issue of Shiva

[3:46]I unique to the religion of Islam or do we find it

[3:49]in other previous religions if you examine and analyze intercession you will

[3:54]find that thousands of years before the holy quran and the religion

[4:01]of islam the concept of shafa'a existed in previous religions if you

[4:07]examine ancient Judaism you will find that they had the concept of

[4:13]chiffon and they believed in types of chiffon for example they believed

[4:20]in the paternal blessings of Prophet Abraham peace be upon him that

[4:25]was passed down to his children which was a form of intercession

[4:28]in Shafa they also believed in the shafa'a of the angel mica

[4:36]l we Muslims also believe in angel mica l he is one

[4:39]of the greatest angels of God Allah Spano - Allah mentions him

[4:44]in the Holy Quran mica in is the leader of the angels

[4:46]and he threw him Allah subhana WA Ta'ala delivers to us our

[4:54]result and sustenance Allah writes the sustenance for you who execute that

[4:59]who delivers that sustenance to every being in creation that's the angel

[5:05]mica in you find that in ancient Judaism they used to pray

[5:09]through the angel mica in to have God bless them and give

[5:16]them sustenance and they believed that the angel mica L would protect

[5:19]Israel for them this was an ancient Jewish belief not only is

[5:24]this limited to an angel many Jews also believed in the shafa'ah

[5:32]of righteous individuals they call them Sodom which means righteous truthful which

[5:41]is probably the equivalent equivalent of the Sadiq the one who is

[5:47]excessively righteous and truthful many of them they believed that if you

[5:51]asked for their intercession they can intercede on your behalf now this

[5:55]is disputed in Judaism just like it is disputed amongst Muslims right

[6:00]is this valid if a righteous servant died can I ask for

[6:06]their shafa the Hasidic Jews believe in that they say yes what's

[6:10]the problem if these righteous servants of God are righteous even if

[6:15]they've died why can't I ask them to to sit on my

[6:20]behalf with allah subhanho to honor whereas you have other strands of

[6:23]Judaism who will reject that and they will say no this is

[6:29]idolatry this is polytheism this is shirk and this is not acceptable

[6:33]so you have this debate even within Judaism let's now go to

[6:37]Christianity within the Christian faith you will find that Catholics for example

[6:43]believe in the intercession of Saints whom they believe are righteous servants

[6:50]of God especially the martyrs those who died in the way of

[6:57]God they believe the martyrs they pass into the presence of God

[7:01]and they receive their sustenance from God and so they can intercede

[7:05]on your behalf now Protestants they dispute this they say no only

[7:11]Jesus can intercede for us with God as for the Saints they

[7:14]don't have that power so you find interestingly that even within the

[7:20]Christian faith this is a debate when it comes to the shafa

[7:27]are the intercession of righteous servants of God now let's examine the

[7:34]difference between the Islamic concept of shafa'ah and the Christian concept because

[7:38]Christians believe that God sent His Son Jesus to die on the

[7:46]cross and to intercede on our behalf to save us from our

[7:50]sins let us spend some moments analyzing this Christian belief and see

[7:55]if this is compatible with the Islamic belief we both believe in

[8:02]safar but there's a fundamental difference even though there are similarities let's

[8:05]examine some of these fundamental differences when you examine the concept of

[8:12]shafa'ah intercession in Christianity you find that it is based on the

[8:20]original sin what is the original sin when God created Adam in

[8:25]the garden of Eve he sinned Christianity considers him to be the

[8:31]first sinner whereas Islam considers him to be the first prophet you

[8:37]see the difference between these two views one religion views him as

[8:42]the first sinner another religion views him as the first prophet of

[8:46]God the Holy Quran has a lot of respect for Adam in

[8:50]the last afar ademma wuhan wale Brahimi Mehran unless panel Tata says

[8:55]I've chosen Adam he's my Khalifa he's my representative on earth whereas

[9:00]if you look at Christianity it really does view Adam negatively and

[9:07]they consider him the first sinner whereas we consider him the first

[9:09]prophet so this idea of the original sin is that he sinned

[9:18]and because he send humanity inherited the sin people became sinful because

[9:26]they inherited that original and first sin and so all human beings

[9:32]who came after Adam are guilty in the eyes of God they

[9:38]are sinful in the eyes of God now why are they sinful

[9:43]if Adam committed the sin they have two views the first one

[9:48]states I done carried all people in the form of seeds in

[9:53]his back in his loins so that means when he committed that

[10:00]sin everyone committed the sin with him because he carries humanity in

[10:05]him in seed form that's one way the second view is that

[10:09]he is our representative like your father right if someone from your

[10:13]immediate family does something wrong you're also held responsible your family is

[10:19]held responsible so Adam created the sin and the entire human family

[10:24]is responsible now Christians have different ways of understanding the original sin

[10:31]but probably the most prominent view is the Calvinist view if you

[10:37]examine Calvinism within Christianity they clearly tell you that you're born sinful

[10:43]even if you're not an adult yet you're just a child you're

[10:46]still guilty in the eyes of God st.

[10:49]Augustine the famous Christian theologian he firmly believes that all human beings

[10:56]are born sinful so now because we are all born sinful God

[11:04]had to send Jesus to die on the cross so that God

[11:06]forgives us from that sin and other sins this is the idea

[11:13]of shafa'ah in Christian theology we inherited that sin so God had

[11:18]to send his son as they say to die on the cross

[11:21]and to intercede on our behalf now if you believe in Jesus

[11:27]that's it you're saved and that original sin is forgiven and your

[11:29]other sins are forgiven this is the fundamental view of intercession in

[11:35]Christianity what is the position of Islam in the religion of Islam

[11:40]Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'ala makes it very clear to us that if

[11:46]you commit a sin why would others be held responsible while at

[11:51]Azurill wasiatun was Allah Allah makes it very clear that if someone

[11:56]else makes a sin you cannot be held responsible for it because

[12:01]that is not compatible with the Justice of Allah subhana WA Ta'ala

[12:04]first of all we don't accept that Adam sinned he did not

[12:08]take the advice of Allah but he did not sin but assuming

[12:10]that he said why do we have to pay the price for

[12:14]it if my grandfather did something wrong why does God see me

[12:19]guilty why does God see me sinful so the religion of Islam

[12:22]is firm on the Justice of Allah and it makes it very

[12:27]clear that God will not hold you accountable for the sins of

[12:31]other people something that someone else did this is the first point

[12:38]the second point in the religion of Islam we do accept that

[12:41]Prophet Esaias alive has the power of chiffon he's one of the

[12:46]great messengers of God and Allah has authorized him as we have

[12:51]examined from Sunni and Shia boots that the prophets of allah allahu

[12:54]allah states on the day of judgment the prophets will intercede prophet

[12:58]Jesus is a great servant of God he has a high status

[13:04]with God and he intercedes but not by him dying on the

[13:07]cross you're automatically forgiven and just believe that he's the savior and

[13:12]you're forgiven regardless of what you do no it's lamb says if

[13:18]you follow the teachings of Prophet ASA his original genuine teachings and

[13:22]you really try to implement his teachings then yes he will intercede

[13:26]on your behalf but just to believe that he died on the

[13:32]cross and that said God automatically forgave humanity that is not something

[13:37]that is acceptable within the religion of Islam so this is the

[13:42]first aspect of shafa'ah that we find in Christianity now there is

[13:46]an extension to this to the concept of intercession in Christianity there's

[13:52]an extension to it which comes in the form of confessions for

[14:00]example in Catholicism you will find that not only Saints or Jesus

[14:05]can intercede on your behalf if you have committed sins you can

[14:09]go to a priest go to any priest in that confession box

[14:15]and that confession rule confess your sins say a few Hail Marys

[14:18]donate something to the church and you're forgiven in fact some Catholics

[14:24]believe that it's mandatory it's Rajab that at least once a year

[14:31]you go and confess your sins especially if they're big sins for

[14:35]their major sins you have to go and confess to have your

[14:37]sins forgiven for for for centuries and centuries this has been common

[14:46]practice within Catholicism now not all Christians believe in this the Protestants

[14:49]for example they don't believe in the confession you don't go to

[14:53]a priest a reverend a religious leader and confess they believe that

[14:58]if you've committed sins just ask God to forgive you no need

[15:02]to go and confess to another human being yes many Protestants believe

[15:06]that if you've run someone let's say your sin was that you

[15:12]dear friend in addition to confessing to God and asking God to

[15:18]forgive you you can go to that friend and also confess and

[15:21]tell your friend I've wronged you I admit please forgive me many

[15:25]Protestants do believe in that but other than that they don't believe

[15:30]in the idea of you going to a priest and confessing your

[15:33]sins so there are differences within Christianity but Catholicism gives great importance

[15:40]to confession and going to a priest to have your sins forgiven

[15:44]you know once a dear friend of mine he said he says

[15:50]I was in Italy one day and I went to a church

[15:54]as I was passing by he passes by the confession room where

[15:57]you have this guy going to the priest to confess he says

[16:02]as soon as this Italian guy walked into the confession room the

[16:08]priest without before even hearing his case what is his sin what

[16:12]has he done the minute he entered into that room and he

[16:17]saw the priest the priest looked at him and he told him

[16:20]Paolo here we go again there are some people they keep committing

[16:28]the same sin over and over and over and they go to

[16:30]their priest and to ask him for forgiveness and he somehow forgives

[16:35]them this is a Catholic belief you know they say once this

[16:38]lady she goes to confess for her sins she goes and she

[16:43]meets the priest now he was lowering his head he's not seeing

[16:45]her he tells her dear what have you done tell me she

[16:51]doesn't I've committed a very big sin he tells her what's that

[16:53]big sin she tells him it's the sin of pride the sin

[16:58]of vanity he tells her I don't get it explain to me

[17:00]what's that sin what's the sin of pride she told him every

[17:05]day twice a day I go in front of the mirror and

[17:10]I look at myself and I realize how beautiful I am and

[17:13]so I'm committing the sin of pride and vanity up until that

[17:18]point he wasn't looking at her he was lowering his head when

[17:20]she said that he was like hey let me see what's going

[17:24]on over here so he takes a good look at her then

[17:27]he tells her dear dear that's not a sin that's just a

[17:32]big awful mistake now we find that this is very important and

[17:37]Catholicism in fact if you go back about 500 years ago they

[17:46]had another version of this type of intercession which is really interesting

[17:52]you would actually go to the priests not only would the priests

[17:57]forgive you for your sins they would sell indulgences that means that

[18:03]you go and buy a ticket to paradise you go to the

[18:08]priest you give an amount of money and the priest will tell

[18:12]you okay now that you've given this money you've secured a place

[18:17]in paradise now you have access to heaven in fact some of

[18:20]them would go and pay on behalf of their families if they

[18:25]have a family member who lived a sinful life who was not

[18:28]necessarily a good believer they would go pay to save them from

[18:34]Birkett purgatory and hell and to take them to paradise you know

[18:36]they say one day this man he walked into church and there

[18:42]was this huge line of people waiting to meet the priest to

[18:45]buy a land in Paradise because that day that priest was actually

[18:49]selling parcels in paradise so he looks at the long line he

[18:56]goes he stands when it's his turn he enters and he tells

[18:58]him priest I want to buy all of paradise can you sell

[19:02]it to me says no that's too expensive you don't have the

[19:05]money how much money do you have it's like I just have

[19:10]100 coins it's like 100 coins you could just buy what are

[19:12]two parcels you can't buy all of paradise he thinks for awhile

[19:17]he tells him okay I've got another deal I'll buy help from

[19:20]you can you sell hell to me he figures like what do

[19:24]you want to do with him he's like I just wanted my

[19:27]help would you sell it to me for a hundred coins you

[19:29]know the priest thinks hey why not take this money hundred coins

[19:34]is not bad and I'm not selling him heaven he's buying hell

[19:36]let him buy him to hell with him so he says fine

[19:40]I sell hell to you he's like write it for me on

[19:43]a piece of paper I want the deep that I own hell

[19:46]he says okay I'll write it for you he takes it out

[19:49]he goes out and he calls on all those people standing in

[19:54]line he's like people people you no longer need to buy anything

[19:57]in Paradise I've purchased hell it belongs to me and no one's

[20:00]allowed to enter now in the sixteenth century I think maybe not

[20:07]exactly sure what year was it maybe 1517 the church actually bans

[20:14]that it bans the church from selling indulgences but this was a

[20:19]type of intercession and shafa'ah that they did have now what is

[20:22]the Islamic perspective on confessing does Islam encourage you to go to

[20:30]a religious leader for example to someone who's wise a righteous person

[20:37]and confess to them your sins let's first make a distinction between

[20:44]admitting your faults and mistakes and admitting your sins there's a fundamental

[20:48]difference between them it is a virtue to admit your mistakes it

[20:55]subverts you to admit that you're wrong when you were wrong some

[20:59]people the last thing they'll do in the world is to admit

[21:03]that they're wrong aslam teaches you to be humble be humble don't

[21:08]say I am always right I know all the truths and you're

[21:13]all wrong be humble if you've made a mistake say I've made

[21:15]a mistake if you don't know say I don't know there's no

[21:19]harm in that that's actually a virtue a sign of humbleness a

[21:24]sign of humility studies have actually been performed on children who admit

[21:30]that they're wrong or they admit that they don't know such children

[21:34]grow up to be more creative they make more discoveries and generally

[21:39]speaking they are more successful so if you want to be successful

[21:43]in this life it's okay admit that you're wrong if you're wrong

[21:48]whether it's from a managerial position that you made mistakes whether it's

[21:53]a person relationship a husband fights with his wife and then later

[21:58]he realizes that he was wrong admit that you were wrong apologized

[22:01]that's a virtue however when it comes to sins that you have

[22:10]privately committed should you confess them to someone or not let's examine

[22:15]the hadith of the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa ala and the Imams

[22:18]of a debate the hadith of the Prophet and the Imams of

[22:23]a debate peace be upon them all are very clear that it

[22:26]is a sin if you have committed a sin privately it's a

[22:33]sin to talk about that sin it's a sin to confess that

[22:38]sin in front of others even your friends many friends you know

[22:41]they have the habit when they get together they talk about their

[22:45]sinful life yesterday I did this the other day I committed that

[22:51]sin last month I committed that other sin the religion of Islam

[22:55]says it's Haram it's prohibited to talk about your personal sins we

[22:59]have a number of narrations that tell us a lot condemns the

[23:04]one who talks openly about his sins don't share it with anyone

[23:10]why for a number of reasons I'll mention two first of all

[23:15]when you talk about your personal sins you normalize sin in society

[23:21]see if I'm in a gathering and I have five friends my

[23:24]first friend tells me you know the other day I committed this

[23:30]sin and the second friend admits he sinned and the third friend

[23:33]and the fourth friend and the fifth one when I'm looking at

[23:36]all of that psychologically what's happening to me I will think you

[23:39]know what it's normal if my good friends are committing these sins

[23:44]it's not the end of the world if I commit those sins

[23:45]I'm just like one of them it makes it normal in the

[23:50]eyes of people and that in itself corrupt society it encourages you

[23:56]to commit more sins when you've sat with a group of friends

[24:00]and they've talked about sins when you leave that gathering you're more

[24:03]likely to do those same sins that you've heard about so it's

[24:07]very important to normalize ins don't talk about the sins you've committed

[24:12]in your private life the prophet sallallaahu Eileen who on estates and

[24:15]one hadith if you've said if you've sinned in private and Allah

[24:18]concealed you the setter of Allah Allah protected you don't go exposing

[24:26]yourself in front of anyone don't expose that you'll normalize sin that's

[24:30]the first negative consequence the second negative consequence when it comes to

[24:36]confessing your sins others around you well over time view you negatively

[24:42]you know sometimes you have an image of someone and you have

[24:48]respect for that person if that person keeps telling you about their

[24:52]sins over time you might lose respect even if that person is

[24:56]very close to you even your spouse you know these days when

[25:01]a young man and woman they get engaged their fiance's right they're

[25:06]engaged usually as they're getting to know one another they open their

[25:11]dark secrets and the dark past sometimes they even open that can

[25:16]of worms of what they've done when I was young in my

[25:21]teenage years in my college years and I know they have the

[25:23]good intention they're just telling one another what they've done but realize

[25:27]when you do that sometimes it has damage if this guy he's

[25:32]hearing about what she's done in her teenage years that could repel

[25:36]him maybe initially he'll not admit it to you but over time

[25:43]he will get repelled we've known people who've had actually to break

[25:48]up their engagement or their marriage because of this the other spouse

[25:53]he was living day after day with these ideas of my spouse

[25:57]committing these sins before marriage and the same with the guy when

[26:03]she hears about him and how he was wild in his teenage

[26:05]years she's going to lose some respect for him so that could

[26:11]alter your image and Allah wants the Muslims and the believers and

[26:15]good citizens to always have a good reputation in society some people

[26:19]soupçon Allah they themselves ruined own reputation they themselves expose themselves in

[26:25]the religion of Islam Allah Spanish Allah prohibits you from going to

[26:30]anyone and talking about your sins even a religious leader yes you

[26:38]can ask for advice if you're stuck in a sinful habit you

[26:41]can go to an elder to someone who was wise to a

[26:46]trusted friend to a religious scholar and ask them for general advice

[26:49]you know if someone's stuck in such a situation what do they

[26:52]do how do you get them out but don't go talking about

[26:56]your personal details and these sins you've committed a last final to

[27:00]Allah considers that in itself is a sin so when the religion

[27:04]of Islam a last Panama trial that discourages us from going to

[27:08]anyone and confessing and remember in the end that priest that you're

[27:13]confessing to is not infallible as a human like you may have

[27:21]sins like you confess your sins to Allah your Lord directly go

[27:24]to Allah you don't need a human being who's sinful like you

[27:29]to have your sins forgiven so in the religion of Islam we

[27:34]are encouraged to keep our sins between us and allah subhanaw taala

[27:39]don't go exposing your sins and we've made a distinction between admitting

[27:45]your faults and confessing your sins there's a big difference admitting your

[27:48]faults is positive it's good it indicates humbleness don't ever act as

[27:53]a fewer correct all the time and you're infallible and everything you

[27:59]do is correct be open to listening to the criticism of other

[28:02]people and be open to change and admit if you have any

[28:08]faults and shortcomings yes instead of confessing your sins to other people

[28:13]Aslan teaches you to go and ask them to ask Allah to

[28:20]forgive you that's one of the best things you can do if

[28:25]there are sins you're really struggling with and you've asked Allah span

[28:29]over to Allah and you're still struggling with it it's highly encouraged

[28:32]to go to a fellow believer and start your parents node are

[28:38]stronger than the DA of your parents especially your mother go to

[28:42]your mother and tell her mother I really need your daughter I'm

[28:45]struggling with something don't expose any details I am struggling with something

[28:50]please ask a lot to help me and to forgive me if

[28:55]you see a fellow brother a fellow sister in society ask them

[28:58]to ask Allah to forgive you there is nothing more beautiful than

[29:05]asking the believers to forgive you and allah subhanaw taala loves the

[29:09]one who prays for other fellow believers the hadith states if you

[29:14]start your doors you know we don't know the etiquette of praying

[29:18]to Allah spano to Allah when we want to pray to our

[29:23]last panel to Allah we just start praying sometimes angrily as if

[29:29]we have a favor on God and we demand from Allah Soprano

[29:31]to other as if Allah is my servant sometimes some people that's

[29:35]how they talk to Allah we don't know the etiquette of am

[29:38]praying to Allah the amantani Saddam teaches us there's an etiquette before

[29:42]you ask for your needs start by praising Allah glorifying Allah spano

[29:49]to Allah thank Allah for the many blessings he's given you do

[29:52]that then pray for your needs the Imam says I guarantee you

[29:58]Allah will fulfill your needs now one of the important conditions of

[30:02]having your dua fulfilled start by praying for other believers then pray

[30:09]for yourself Allah Spano - Anna will answer your prayer because Allah

[30:14]will say this person is not selfish he cares about other fellow

[30:19]believers in society if he took time to pray for them before

[30:23]praying for his own self and his family I will grant him

[30:27]his wish and that's what we learned from Lady Fatima is Sarah

[30:30]and Imam Hassan Ali said I'm States I bear witness I would

[30:35]see my mother the entire night she's standing on her feet praying

[30:39]to allah subhana wa ta'ala and then she would pray for the

[30:41]people she would pray for the neighbors and everyone in society and

[30:47]the last thing she would pray is for her house so I

[30:50]asked her mom you pray for the neighbors more than us she

[30:55]told me banana al ja from my dear son the neighbor comes

[30:59]first this is the etiquette of prayer this isn't what we learned

[31:02]from the a debate peace be upon them it's highly recommended if

[31:07]you ask a lot to forgive your sins ask him first to

[31:09]forgive the sins of others you know al even Maziar was one

[31:16]of the great companions of Alabama Joe Adonis Anna Ali bin Marcia

[31:22]had an amazing habit every single morning he was a scholar he

[31:27]authored books he was a busy man and he was a businessman

[31:33]he made living for himself so he wasn't someone lazy who had

[31:37]extra free time but look at what he would do every morning

[31:41]these are the students of animates my dear brothers and sisters every

[31:47]morning after sunrise he would go into sujood and he would ask

[31:52]Allah to forgive 1000 of those brothers and sisters whom he knows

[32:03]he mentions them by name how long does it take to mention

[32:06]1000 people by name an hour two hours I don't know this

[32:14]was his daily habit and this is a student of an imam

[32:17]al joy and you know for us some of us if we

[32:20]occasionally pray salat to Leila a lot of people ask this you

[32:26]know it's highly mustahab in the last like like I tell what

[32:28]when you do the knut you ask Allah to forgive 40 people

[32:33]mention them by name a lot of people ask this question say

[32:36]it can I just do I have to mention them by name

[32:39]or can I just say oh Allah forgive my friends and family

[32:41]and everyone it's okay you can do that but you don't have

[32:46]the time two minutes to mention 40 people by name next time

[32:50]remember Ali bin Maziar every day he would mention 1,000 people by

[32:58]name these are the students of Alan Bates peace be upon them

[33:02]so we asked others to do to our for us and that's

[33:07]a beautiful chiffon now this leads us to the verse which I

[33:11]opened the discussion with and that is worldly shafa that is applicable

[33:15]to all of us a last panel tonight estates of the holy

[33:22]quran manufacture far attend hisana yaqula lahu naseeban min ha if you

[33:27]intercede on behalf of someone for a good cause Allah will give

[33:36]you a share of the good outcome if you have power position

[33:40]in society use that to help others we have so many narrations

[33:45]my dear brothers and sisters that tell us there is nothing more

[33:52]beloved to allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala than to help someone fulfill their needs

[33:57]if Allah has given you power and position you know an imam

[34:00]sadiq ali salam states there's a cat of your position is the

[34:06]shofar for the people if you have a position in society you're

[34:09]well respected you have a business you are an elected official people

[34:14]listen to you you can make arrangements the amount says you have

[34:20]as a car to pay there's a charity to pay for that

[34:22]what's the zakat use that position to help someone allah subhanahu wa

[34:28]ta'ala will expect this zakat for music art is not just money

[34:31]that you pay it's also using your power to help people in

[34:34]society there's nothing more beloved to allah than helping someone fulfill their

[34:40]need one hadith from the imam alayhis-salam states the one who fulfills

[34:46]the need of his brother Allah subhana WA Ta'ala will give him

[34:55]one thousand thousand husana you know how much that is one thousand

[35:00]multiplied by one thousand that's 1 million - 1 million has sent

[35:04]her brothers and sisters that's not a joke if you fulfill the

[35:07]in fact and what hadith the Imam says men Sarah if you

[35:12]make the effort sometimes you make the effort but it doesn't happen

[35:15]right the amount says if you make the effort you try to

[35:20]fulfill their need our last panel - Allah gives you that reward

[35:23]and another hadith the Imam are in Salaam states fulfilling the need

[35:32]of someone in your society using your connections using your status to

[35:38]help someone Allah subhana WA Ta'ala considers that more valuable than nine

[35:43]thousand years of ibadah fasting every day and worshipping and praying all

[35:49]night launch for nine thousand years once a man from Beni a

[35:56]said he meets an imam and bak irani said i'm or an

[36:01]imam sadiq ali salam after the hajj he performs the hajj he

[36:03]goes to the imam ali sarah when he meets the a man

[36:07]he tells him imam what's the reward for my hajj the last

[36:09]panel - allah has given me the imam ali salam tells him

[36:14]allah has forgiven you for six thousand sins Allah has given you

[36:18]six thousand good deeds Allah has elevated your status on the day

[36:21]of judgement six thousand degrees and Allah will fulfill for you on

[36:28]the day of judgement six thousand needs for going to the hundred

[36:32]he was shocked he said the abbe Nanosuit Allah Wow all this

[36:36]reward the Imam Mahdi's sallam told and let me tell you something

[36:41]if you consider this reward a lot let me tell you something

[36:44]if you fulfill the need of your brother and society Allah will

[36:54]give you the reward of one had no two three four until

[36:57]he counts him just by fulfilling the need of someone in your

[37:03]society that shafa'a husana that the Quran talks about intercede on behalf

[37:11]of people help them get what they want help them find a

[37:15]way out of their problems in one hadith the holy prophet sallahu

[37:18]aleihi honest states the best shafa you can do for two people

[37:24]is to get them married that's very important there are many youth

[37:27]in our society they'd like to get me they kept either they

[37:31]don't know someone who's appropriate for them or they don't have the

[37:35]financial stability to get married if you use your status your financial

[37:41]status or you introduce them to someone the Prophet says if you

[37:47]join between two people in marriage that is the best Shafa that

[37:52]our last panel to Allah will accept from you you are doing

[37:54]Shafa I here in this world for other people you don't think

[37:57]Allah will give you the maximal Shiva on the day of judgement

[37:59]another hadith states one of the best types of intercession in the

[38:05]world and chiffon and helping others if someone's in debt and they're

[38:10]stuck and they have no way out help them get out of

[38:15]that debt this is one of the best types of Shiva you

[38:17]can give to the people and in last panel to Allah on

[38:21]the day of judgment will shade you under his throne on that

[38:25]very hot day when everyone will be seeking a shade man yesh

[38:32]watch afar attend husana here kun Lihue naseeban min ha la will

[38:36]give you a share of that good outcome but then here's the

[38:41]warning some people subhanAllah they're the exact opposite Romania shafa attend say

[38:47]Ya Ya Allah who kill on min ha the same verse states

[38:56]but if you intercede for an evil cause you use your power

[38:59]and influence and position and money to ruin people's lives the Quran

[39:05]says the burden will be on you you will share that burden

[39:13]as well yes there are negative chiffons there are many people they

[39:17]use their power and position and influence to ruin lives instead of

[39:21]helping people saving people bringing hearts closer you see they ruin the

[39:26]hearts and they cost fitna and society that is the worst type

[39:31]of chiffon and these people will be held responsible in the eyes

[39:34]of Allah subhana Mouton so my dear friends as we conclude the

[39:39]discussion on shafa remember aside from that show that we've talked about

[39:45]and the greatest Shafie and intercessors the holy prophet muhammad sallallahu alayhi

[39:50]wa LA remember that here in this world if you expect the

[39:59]shafa of allah and the animal bait you also enter seed on

[40:04]behalf of people for a good cause that will maximize your chances

[40:10]of receiving intercession on the day of judgment and let's never ever

[40:16]forget my dear friends the rama of Allah on the day of

[40:20]judgment we've talked about so far and how that gives us hope

[40:26]it is our hope but remember that the mercy of God the

[40:30]Lamb of Allah is the most powerful sheffy an intercessor that we

[40:39]have philosopher a to jamia Allah ultimately has the greatest chef on

[40:45]the day of judgment the names of Allah are actually intercessors for

[40:50]us yah-yah-yah rahim the hadith states turned to Allah through these beautiful

[40:58]99 beautiful names of Allah every name reflects one reality about the

[41:04]essence of God these names are your means to allah subhanaw taala

[41:08]never forget the rama of god i'll share with you one hadith

[41:14]from the imam ali salam he states all of the mercy that

[41:17]God has created divided into 100 parts look at the mercy that

[41:25]exists in this world every mother how she is merciful to her

[41:29]child even the Imam says the animals have mercy on each other

[41:31]have you seen animals raising their offspring they have so much mercy

[41:37]sometimes animals are willing to die to save their offspring the Imam

[41:46]says all of the Mercy humanity has ever saw in history as

[41:51]one part out of 100 parts 1% then the Imam says Allah

[42:01]has kept 99% on the day of judgement to forgive the sinful

[42:06]ones and to save the people that's the Lamb of God one

[42:11]hadith states on the day of judgment but if you are familiar

[42:12]with this but remind yourself in the month of Ramadhan of the

[42:15]mercy of God the hadith states on the day of judgement a

[42:19]person was so sinful no intercessor could intercede on his behalf the

[42:24]eleven that we talked none of them could save him so Allah

[42:29]says take him to hell the angels are graduating him into hell

[42:32]right before being pushed into hell he looks back he looks back

[42:42]alas Panama - Allah talks to him on the day of judgement

[42:46]Allah tells and my servant why did you look back my slave

[42:53]why did you look back waiting for someone waiting for something why

[42:58]did you look back with embarrassment he will say o Allah I

[43:03]know I'm sinful I know I deserve this punishment I admit I

[43:06]know my deeds couldn't save me but I just didn't think you

[43:12]would throw me I just didn't think I just had so fussing

[43:15]when and good opinions about you I just had so much hope

[43:20]in your mercy I just didn't think I would reach the edge

[43:21]of hell Allah subhana WA Ta'ala tells the angels my angels because

[43:28]even at this moment right before being pushed into hell because he

[43:33]still has hope in my Rama I forgiven him leave him save

[43:37]him this is the Rama of Allah my dear brothers and sisters

[43:43]in the month of Ramadan let's turn to Allah let's pray to

[43:48]the Almighty God and let's not forget those intercessors Allah spano -

[43:55]Allah has appointed for us turn to the handle bay turn to

[43:57]the holy prophets on Allahu Allahu Allah the more you ask them

[44:01]to be your sheffy the more you will be granted their intercession

[44:29]by asking for the chiffon of the holy prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
