[29:47]I would like to welcome our speaker brother Hassan rajab Ali he
[29:51]has dedicated his time in knowledge to guiding empowering our community his
[29:56]words always Inspire us and uplift our hearts please help me welcome
[30:01]him with a loud Muhammad muhamad alhamd alhamd [Music] Muhammad for muham
[31:34]all praise belongs to Allah subhana tala I begin in his name
[31:40]in this blessed month that he has gifted us upon which to
[31:43]indulge collectively as a society in Remembering Allah subhana tala's purpose of
[31:49]why he created us and that we build uh the will within
[31:57]ourselves to to abstain from the possible trickeries of shaan and the
[32:01]natural tendencies we have to deviate and Allah subhana taala is helping
[32:09]us collectively that through fasting we will achieve God Consciousness the fundamental
[32:18]objective as I mentioned yesterday and I want to reiterate is that
[32:21]Allah created us out of his Mercy placed us on this transient
[32:24]Earth wants us to recognize his infinite mercy and is putting us
[32:32]through trials and tribulations so that we understand ourselves the key objective
[32:36]is for you and I to know ourselves know yourselves very very
[32:43]important and in the process the gains and the losses that we
[32:49]have in life will make us realize what the real function and
[32:52]purpose is and of course nothing is more conspicuously staring at us
[33:00]that really demands attention than death for the fact that when we
[33:04]are born within a few decades we have to prepare ourselves to
[33:07]depart from this world that by the time we mature and we've
[33:12]established ourselves to live comfortably on this Earth we have to depart
[33:16]and when the departure takes place everything we have earned materially on
[33:21]this Earth stays behind Allah says the beauty of this world your
[33:36]wealth and your family are the beauty of this world what's left
[33:44]what your good deeds your struggles to abstain from all the possible
[33:53]evils that Shan would suggest to us or our natural inclinations to
[33:56]deviate and Allah says that is the best Allah says that is
[34:03]what matters the most that's what's coming with you in the grave
[34:06]so these conversations are very very important for you and I to
[34:12]know that when we talk about God the day of judgment prophethood
[34:16]IM the infallibility of prophets and imams the infallibility of the Holy
[34:23]Quran and of course the essential nature of the day of judgment
[34:28]and as part and parcel of our vision and living a life
[34:31]on this Earth with the clear understanding within our actions and transactions
[34:37]that the day of judgment is tomorrow if you and I don't
[34:43]have these prescriptions we're not going to succeed Shan is going to
[34:47]fool us people who cheat who lie who steal who are narcissistic
[34:50]who are egotistic who pontificate with theirselves are the ones who have
[34:57]lost vision of the day of Judgement they feel this world is
[35:03]is just one life they're utilitarian and they feel that there is
[35:07]no justice there is no oversight there's no God they're just survivors
[35:14]having been born accidentally through some Fiat of things in the past
[35:20]which is preposterous quite honestly it's absurd and this discussion you and
[35:25]I need to have in the month of Ramadan while we gather
[35:27]here is to to say why are we here why are you
[35:31]all here why am I here well it is to encourage each
[35:33]other to become better invite them to the way of your lord
[35:44]what is this invitation the invitation of being vigilant careful and understanding
[35:50]the function and purpose of life now if mankind were to pay
[35:55]heed to the true nature of what our functions are this world
[35:57]world would be a paradise you wouldn't have to put locks on
[36:03]your doors you know you wouldn't have to have stress we we
[36:06]as a human race while our technology is increasing ASM totically today
[36:13]Quantum Computing is around the corner AI has become almost a norm
[36:18]you know its fundamental principles and the new generation today is tapping
[36:25]into the most incredible realities of technology and our access to knowledge
[36:32]is incredibly greater than any time in history this community today the
[36:40]Muslim the human race and the Muslim umah is more aware of
[36:44]the knowledge of life than any society in our predecessors in other
[36:50]words in pre previous history nobody had this level of knowledge and
[36:55]tomorrow it'll probably be Amplified twice as much so our level of
[37:01]knowledge is drastically increasing and what's beautiful is that the new systems
[37:07]of AI are taking away the mundane within us what I love
[37:13]about AI as dangerous as it can be it's it's a gift
[37:15]of Allah for AI artificial intelligence is taking the mundane away from
[37:21]us meaning the mundane transactions the calculations the memorizationscripture [Music] he in
[37:58]whose hands are the universe is the universe Your Hands by the
[38:06]way is metaphorical Allah has no hands meaning using human language Allah
[38:13]uses the metaphor of hands and Allah is describing the first thing
[38:19]he created he cre death and life to test which of you
[38:33]is best indeed so the fundamental purpose on this Earth is for
[38:37]you and I to correct ourselves which is to make our transactions
[38:46]proper our promises our honesty our integrity our kindness our caringness our
[38:56]sharing our lovingness complete how do we do that for we suffer
[39:02]in society that as much as technology has taken over by the
[39:08]same token when you study human behavior our anxieties and our depressions
[39:13]are also increasing asymptotically we're finding the prescriptions of anti-depressants increasing so
[39:21]why is it that tomorrow will be even today you hop on
[39:25]a plane and a few hours later you're on a different part
[39:28]of Earth why are we so depressed you got cards now that
[39:34]are really not cards they're robots eventually these cars will be driving
[39:37]on their own you'll be talking to them and telling them come
[39:40]over and pick me up you've got self-driving cars already today so
[39:44]why is depression increasing why are we so depressed why is suicide
[39:48]increasing why is youth uh suicidal ideations increasing the children are contemplating
[39:56]suicide what are we missing purpose in life we don't talk about
[40:04]it when Public Schools gave up religion or God it left us
[40:08]bereft of purpose we became maavalan we became utilitarian we just fed
[40:17]the refrigerator so it could feed us that's what life is about
[40:20]you become depressed because you start to figure out what's life all
[40:24]about and of course you fall in love you get a abused
[40:28]most kids you know when they're 12 13 they're already starting to
[40:36]feel the desire that pure puppy love and that by by the
[40:38]way the purest love is at that stage when those children fall
[40:42]in love with somebody it's the purest form of love as you
[40:47]grow into adulthood it becomes tainted it becomes calculated it becomes controlled
[40:53]it's not pure anymore it's interesting now Society simply practice Purity in
[41:00]Behavior at an early age then that pure love would translate to
[41:04]something positive without the indecencies that the societies are promoting us today
[41:09]with so I would like to focus on a few principle when
[41:14]you look at the entire Quran as I mentioned yesterday it's a
[41:17]book of morality it guides us this Quran guides you to that
[41:28]which is most upright it teaches you the dos and don'ts the
[41:31]rights and the wrongs how it lays out the function and purpose
[41:36]of why you were created what you're supposed to do and what
[41:40]awaits you tomorrow once you have that Clarity in Vision you can
[41:45]now execute people who are successful in business Who start any kind
[41:49]of business that hits the Mark is because they have a view
[41:54]of something the rest of society doesn't have and therefore they capitalize
[41:58]on on it and it responds because their vision is broader wider
[42:02]clearer and they can understand the Dynamics of why they opened up
[42:07]that shop or why they created that product because they know the
[42:13]needs so for you and I if we don't know the function
[42:14]of why we were created and why we are on this Earth
[42:18]and what awaits us and that death does not discriminate then you
[42:24]and I will be in a much better position to make good
[42:27]decisions and when opportunities come that are very dangerous morally let's say
[42:36]I can make a lot of money by cheating stealing or robbing
[42:40]somebody you will say no I will never go there but why
[42:43]don't you why don't you submit I can't my vision is so
[42:51]clear you want me to jump into a pit with snakes I'm
[42:57]not going to do that this is what it's about the clarity
[42:59]of seeing the truth is what you and I need to have
[43:04]fasting in the month of Ramadan helps us with this it enables
[43:07]us to re to reflect to reverse our engines our biological systems
[43:14]get slowed down so we become more contemplating more Vigilant this is
[43:21]why as I cited the verse yesterday I didn't translate the creation
[43:25]of the night and the day Allah says who are they Allah
[43:28]they reflect about God you see standing sitting and lying on their
[43:38]sides they're thinking how many of our young Generations today are trained
[43:46]to think we train them to be impulsive it's great for business
[43:50]and then they become compulsive which is great for the Pharmacists and
[43:55]the doctors and the pharmacies far I mean Pharmaceuticals pardon me mamam
[44:06]right and we become mechanical beings that are being abused was all
[44:12]we have to do is raise a generation of contemplating reflective loving
[44:17]caring sharing societies and many of these bullets will be dodged but
[44:23]we're not there look at our kids today you know the L
[44:28]and the greatest you look at social media it's designed to show
[44:32]up for 30 seconds and disappear you're like you're glued to it
[44:35]and it's it's it's voracious it wants to eat you alive and
[44:40]this generation is constantly swiping and talking and depressed and they're looking
[44:44]for their loved ones they don't know what to do everything is
[44:46]lost and then the next thing you got all these Cannabis shops
[44:50]that are legalized now so you go get high all the time
[44:54]you know just this Preposterous idea of allowing the general Society to
[44:59]indulge in tetrah hydroc canaban which is something that shrinks your brain
[45:08]and we're a very Advanced Society we can place satellites on in
[45:13]around Earth and put you know people on other planets we're so
[45:17]stupid when it comes to our basic functions as a human race
[45:22]we can't even keep our marriages intact you know our percentages are
[45:25]astronomical is it because we're innately stupid no no mankind has been
[45:35]honored you and I are blessed with intellect and and look all
[45:38]these capacities that we have created in the world today with the
[45:41]technology of AI and Quantum Computing which is going to blow away
[45:47]the regular computers in the world today is created by that same
[45:51]human race that's stabbing itself so let's pay attention it's crucial for
[45:56]you and I trust me that we become proactive and preemptive in
[46:03]life and not reactive such that when the problem strikes us we
[46:11]wake up True Believers are preemptive they prepare they're constantly Vigilant and
[46:15]they're aware of the impending danger and they're proactive look at Imam
[46:21]aliam look at the holy prophet himself proactive establish and they were
[46:29]very careful about what they did their transactions were longterm their families
[46:35]were killed they didn't care their wealth was taken they didn't care
[46:39]their lives were put on the line they didn't care because they
[46:45]saw the future and they saw the future as tomorrow and they
[46:48]were so Vigilant and constant in it that that's what's saving us
[46:52]as a human society today had it not been for the vigilance
[46:57]of the prophets in the IMS you and I would not have
[47:01]had Islam the way we have it today we would have had
[47:02]a carcass of religion for Shan would have stripped it and left
[47:07]us with nothing and we would have been so lost but Allah
[47:10]guarantees that he is protecting his religion and that if you and
[47:15]I love Allah then we have to be preemptive and proactive so
[47:20]let's discuss this briefly within the time that I have because I
[47:24]think it's very important in Bak when Allah says Al you know
[47:29]it's Secret Letters Nobody Knows the meanings of that Quran has these
[47:33]Secret Letters that Allah is guarding the Quran through these Secret Letters
[47:40]and when when he reappears possibly Allah will reveal it to us
[47:46]or possibly we will know it when we die but in Bak
[47:51]Allah describes the signs of a I want to just touch that
[47:58]as a fundamental principle and then jump into verse 177 which I
[48:02]think the messenger of Allah in verse 177 of the Quran stated
[48:05]if you follow just this one verse you will have complete faith
[48:10]so we talk about it insh in Allah says I just want
[48:19]to make a point here he created death so death is not
[48:23]nothing death is not f f is nothing thing death is not
[48:30]the negation of life it's not death is not the opposite of
[48:34]Life yes it's a transition that's why in Arabic means to taste
[48:47]you experiencea means to taste you experience so Allah says every self
[48:51]shall taste death so Allah created death and life so m is
[49:09]the origin of us when you and I are born from the
[49:14]wombs of our mother we are actually we die first before we
[49:17]become alive because that shift from the womb to this earth is
[49:22]death very interesting so death is not shutting things off it is
[49:30]a transition number one very very important to remember I want to
[49:33]make a quick Point here just a quick point and then I'll
[49:35]jump when Allah creates any living being we'll talk about this I
[49:43]just want to introduce it tonight food for thought when Allah creates
[49:47]a soul Allah says in the Quran something else when the baby
[49:56]is born when Allah puts spirit into that baby that Spirit never
[50:03]turns off forever you can kill the baby and kill the adult
[50:06]the soul of that person never shuts off when people go through
[50:13]near-death experiences they notice an outof Body Experience they feel levitation they
[50:18]got into a car crash they feel that they're looking at their
[50:20]body they see the ambulance picking them up taking them resuscitating them
[50:25]it's very fascinating and when they come back alive they say yeah
[50:30]I saw this notice they never shut off their body shut off
[50:32]but they didn't shut off the soul is such a gift of
[50:38]Allah it never shuts off forever but it goes through Transitions and
[50:42]each transition is called means what test you try you we will
[51:01]test you we will put you through rigor ex incredible amount of
[51:08]Fear Can you st in this it's it's magnificent honestly you might
[51:11]think oh brother what are you talking about you know trials tribulations
[51:14]losses I wish it wasn't true that's what makes us humans that's
[51:19]what purifies us so let's jump very quickly and you will see
[51:25]that Allah subhana tala is his Mercy is I mean when you
[51:28]look at the Quran there's no book in the world that establishes
[51:31]principles the way it does I'll talk about the Quran its nature
[51:36]the general nature you notice Quran doesn't follow chronological order it's constantly
[51:40]shifting in time it talks about something now it jumps to the
[51:44]Future goes to the Past it's constantly moving you know it's like
[51:48]in when you're telling a story you want to stay within that
[51:51]time you'll find other scriptures the Christian judaic CH scriptures it's very
[51:56]chronolog logical the Quran violates chronology completely it purposely does this to
[52:04]tell you I'm a book of morals and morals don't need time
[52:08]they're Timeless when you when you're good when you're kind when you're
[52:13]loving when you have a vision when you're forgiving when you're caring
[52:17]time stops because it's irrelevant because a good character has no time
[52:22]it's only when you tell a story it needs a time and
[52:26]the Quran is not not a story book it has stories it
[52:30]has signs it has everything but it's not important and I love
[52:33]it and when I read it I said my Lord you created
[52:36]me you know who I am I know I knew a Jesuit
[52:40]priest in New York his brother gave him the Quran he read
[52:43]F he became a Muslim I asked him why he said when
[52:48]I read just those seven verses I knew humans cannot write this
[52:51]this is God just like when the prophet sallallahu alaih wasallam when
[52:57]he puts at the Caba they said this is not the word
[53:02]of man this is the word of God it's succinct it's perspicuous
[53:06]to the point and it strikes the heart and makes you realize
[53:12]that's the beauty that we have in our hands today muham muhad
[53:21]Allah says notice the Quran is complete not the verses scattered under
[53:27]somebody's bed which people proposed the idea you know when the prophet
[53:33]left the Quran was scattered and that you know it had to
[53:39]be collected by humans and somehow figured out no the prophet says
[53:45]I leave you two heavy things the book of God it's complete
[53:53]it is upon us to collect it and recite it the Perfection
[54:00]of Allah delivering this message is so fundamentally important and Shan and
[54:06]his cronies try to make us doubt the Quran from its authentic
[54:10]position by claiming how do I know this is the word of
[54:14]God I ask a fundamental question assuming the Quran is not the
[54:21]word of God which is not true but assuming then ra reason
[54:23]and rationality would dictate that there has to be a book out
[54:26]there that God revealed that is better than the Quran try it
[54:33]travel go even to the Moon you won't find any book like
[54:39]the Quran it's no secret so when you and I have doubts
[54:42]just read the Quran so Allah said in this book there is
[54:54]no doubt LBA how laa well rationality tells me that I need
[54:59]a prescription I need a system I need a written form of
[55:03]laws otherwise I am not liable for anything you know when you
[55:09]go to court and they're going to give you a fine if
[55:11]that law is not written they cannot find you you know that
[55:17]you look at the structured laws of civil societies you have constitutional
[55:22]laws you have state laws you have local laws you have ordinances
[55:27]in your house the local community has laws about how you're going
[55:32]to ra put your grass and what color you're going to paint
[55:37]your house why are those laws there they're written laws to ensure
[55:41]civility to ensure Harmony so when Allah said a Believer knows that
[55:49]the words of Allah has to be somewhere and that when I
[55:52]read it I should have no doubt so Allah said meaning for
[55:58]those who guard against evil so when you and I are cognizant
[56:03]of our functions in life we will understand that the Quran is
[56:07]an immutable book and it cannot be superseded hands down and I
[56:11]see I speak from experienced by the way I don't claim to
[56:14]be an expert but I travel the world I speak in universities
[56:17]and I quote the Quran verbatim in Arabic in a non-muslim audience
[56:23]because it's so powerful that just the Arabic language is a mesmerizing
[56:29]reality and it works and it has never failed me who are
[56:38]they they believe in the Unseen look at the you know the
[56:44]second chapter of the Quran fantastic when you just it's laying it
[56:48]out by the way fa is a Dua it's the entire principle
[56:54]of life is in FA the isn't it you know what it's
[57:04]all in F instantaneously it's place and then the is the rest
[57:12]of the verse it's the most concise seven verses you and I
[57:18]can ever recite the entire template of my life is in fat
[57:21]and it's also Dua so it starts with that Al the opening
[57:26]then Bak Allah is describing the first thing the objective is for
[57:29]a m who is the god conscious now there are different levels
[57:33]of belief you know you have a Muslim you have a you
[57:38]know you have you have a you have so many different levels
[57:43]and even the stages of life you have the mul you have
[57:46]malakut you know L jabarut you have different levels of existence in
[57:53]this world in Dimensions that you and I can reach should you
[57:55]and I wish to tap into them we won't talk about that
[58:01]tonight but Allah is saying now who is the ultimate Allah subh
[58:12]you can't see Allah and whatever he creates is perfect and God
[58:18]is the ultimate unseen when you and I ask the question how
[58:20]can I believe in a God that's unseen when you look at
[58:29]something it limits it Allah is unlimited therefore it's impossible to see
[58:34]him the idea of atheists asking to see God is ridiculous I
[58:40]mean this is what all other religions have done they have taken
[58:45]a God and defied him into some shape and form including our
[58:49]brothers of Christianity unfortunately who've taken the Son of God and put
[58:54]him up there and kind of given him some divinity in order
[58:56]to see a physical reality of God that they can look at
[59:01]Hindus have done that you know people of different Faith have come
[59:05]up with ideas you know the zarrian have taken fire and made
[59:11]it into some you know presence of God Allah says they believe
[59:17]in the Unseen and what by the way what is the most
[59:20]valuable thing you and I have in life the power of unseen
[59:24]if you can see tomorrow before tomorrow it's unseen you will be
[59:32]the richest person in the world because you will rule because time
[59:36]will be on your hands in your hands that's the power of
[59:41]the Unseen and Allah is the ultimate unseen tomorrow is unseen the
[59:46]day of judgment is unseen right the past of how Allah created
[59:51]us is unseen to us there are many factors of unseen how
[59:55]do I reach my knowledge of the Unseen through rationality through logic
[60:01]through reason there are many many ways but I won't talk about
[60:05]it I'm just generalizing here then Allah says right away listen there's
[60:09]a w here and they maintain prayers now it's instantaneous they believe
[60:19]in the Unseen and they maintain prayers the power of responding to
[60:25]Allah is crucial for that's the connection you know H when you
[60:45]asked them who created the universe they said Allah Allah says don't
[60:51]say that isn't it true it is Allah Allah says no say
[60:56]glory be to Allah see you're responding you're not just an observer
[61:00]who's deistic and saying oh God created that Allah says what about
[61:03]you you you created me too but you know I'm not connected
[61:09]with you the Quran is very very emphatic it's the right answer
[61:16]says you don't know what I give a right answer Allah says
[61:21]no no glory be to Allah you connect and you submit otherwise
[61:26]you don't know Allah and you your answer is wrong really but
[61:32]we say Allah created Allah is asking us this is inak the
[61:42]verse I read yesterday about Ramadan right after that is that verse
[61:48]Allah [Music] says what a beautiful verse when my Believers ask you
[61:56]about me tell them I'm near I reply them when they talk
[62:00]when they ask me I reply them then Allah puts a therefore
[62:09]let them then reply me be and believe in me so that
[62:15]they are rightly guided meaning the equation needs to become complete not
[62:20]just to talk about Allah but to submit to Allah simultaneously that's
[62:23]why here Allah said [Music] and for what we give them they
[62:36]spend they're not stingy they're [Music] not the prophet said Al a
[62:44]stingy person is an enemy of God why because a believer in
[62:49]God knows that the treasury of Allah is infinite therefore giving becomes
[62:54]their natural behavior but when you don't believe in Allah or you
[62:59]believe Allah's treasury is limited then you become stingy because whatever is
[63:03]given is limited but a True Believer says never the the the
[63:13]wealth Allah says no when I give it that's how I am
[63:16]Kim and jaad for Allah says I give you so much and
[63:22]I don't even account for it but a True Believer understands that
[63:27]so they spend the prophets you know when the prophets did the
[63:33]work they said you know when they did the work they would
[63:41]say to the people we don't want any payments from you you're
[63:45]doing all the work you're guiding us you're preaching to us you're
[63:48]showing us you're showing us how to pray don't you want to
[63:54]get paid no when they gave food to the poor right their
[64:13]love for God we are feeding you because we love God for
[64:25]the love of God [Music] we don't want reward not even thanks
[64:39]we already know God is too merciful shame on us for demanding
[64:47]when God has given me so much I must reply give it
[64:54]they spend they spend they spend not recklessly they're not they're not
[65:02]excessive in spending inan Allah talks about this say they ask you
[65:05]how much should you spend Allah says not too much not too
[65:11]little just the right amount what is that study the need study
[65:14]what's needed and study what you need and figure out the balance
[65:19]that how much can I let go without damaging myself that's a
[65:23]True Believer then what is the second fundamental principle the continuity these
[65:30]are all by the way you have to have all these principles
[65:36]to be considered a member of notice prescription there has to be
[65:45]something that has been revealed from God written form for humans to
[65:52]follow and you must believe in them and that you must believe
[65:55]that they were revealed before and they're revealed now for you to
[65:58]be considered a Pious person this is crucial and of the Hereafter
[66:09]they are certain now I'll talk about it another night but y
[66:16]I will talk about the principles of Yen certainty very fascinating there's
[66:22]an interesting study in the Quran about we'll talk about it another
[66:26]night but here Allah says they have certainty of the day of
[66:32]judgment what happens now your vision is complete my longterm Vision my
[66:36]Eternal Vision is part of my vision now I'm transacting every day
[66:40]that vision is constant so now somebody wants you to cheat to
[66:45]lie to hurt to abuse you can't because you see tomorrow in
[66:50]the day of judgment and you see yourself being held liable look
[66:53]it's common sense if you received a subpoena from Court let's say
[66:57]you did a transaction with somebody it's a very interesting U psychology
[67:02]when you receive a letter from the court or IRS you know
[67:05]your heart usually stops a little bit you get very nervous oh
[67:11]my God I'm under scrutiny I'm in trouble let's say you had
[67:14]a business transaction with somebody and now you received a letter from
[67:18]Court what's going to happen to you guaranteed ask any psychologist psychiatrist
[67:26]Common Sense person you're going to constantly be thinking about that event
[67:31]what are you going to do you're going to account what did
[67:37]I say what did I do which checks did I write what
[67:39]did I do with the money notice what is that the prophet
[67:46]said do your before Allah does your isn't it beautiful but the
[67:54]person knows the subp is there guess what Allah subp is already
[67:56]here but you and I are oblivious that's why is for the
[68:03]they are so certain The subpoena is there it's waiting that return
[68:07]ticket has been printed and stamped and I know I'm going Allah
[68:15]says prepare but we're oblivious building our manions on a bridge now
[68:24]the these are the ones that Allah t on the right course
[68:30]and these are the ones which shall be successful now this verse
[68:33]is a foundational verse and I want to jump very quickly for
[68:38]you and I to understand that when we the verse I I
[68:42]I wanted to talk about today I'm just going to jump on
[68:44]it and then I'll continue discussing this tomorrow in muham muhamad I
[68:51]also want to stress while I'm speaking about the characteristics of people
[68:56]who maintain prayer very very important Salah to us often in the
[69:05]Muslim world is the fear of God that I must pray to
[69:10]God for God will punish me if I don't I want everybody
[69:14]in this room to please for the love of God put that
[69:17]as a secondary item okay please don't think that way it's the
[69:25]wrong thought Salah is great fulness thankfulness make that your first item
[69:31]yes if you're negligent of Salah it deserves punishment but that's not
[69:39]the priority teach children to pray to be thankful I give examples
[69:43]somebody comes at your door and gives you a gift and you
[69:45]open it up and it's the gift you really want and you're
[69:48]excited oh my god I've been thinking about this I really want
[69:51]this you open up the box and you look at it and
[69:55]the person who gave you the gift is standing there what are
[70:00]you going to do slam the door on him and say bye
[70:01]or then or a week later he say oh bye the way
[70:04]that gift you sent me thank you g prayers no you say
[70:11]thank you right away but you and I don't feel it what
[70:15]has God done for me yeah when covid came and you couldn't
[70:21]breathe then God says guess what I was doing for you when
[70:24]the tsunami hit people say where is God I say when the
[70:28]sun was rising and the waves were beautiful and you were sipping
[70:31]wonderful juice did you ask about God ins Allah says when I
[70:40]take it when the waves cover them they're about to fall in
[70:57]die like a plane crash they turn to me sincerely begging me
[71:04]we bring them back to shore they take the Middle Ground God
[71:09]what God is there really insan you and I need to constantly
[71:14]think as we blink as we walk as we talk as we
[71:20]drink as we sleep every component is a mercy of God so
[71:26]Salah should could be a leap where you say I just want
[71:27]to thank you God every day every minute but I thanked you
[71:32]this morning Allah says that between this morning and now there were
[71:34]a million transactions that took place in your body how about that
[71:39]don't you want to say thank you again so anyway verse 177
[71:45]Allah says the prophet said you follow this one verse your faith
[72:26]is complete let me translate many of us argue you know about
[72:32]Salah the rules of Salah yes very important don't get me wrong
[72:36]Sharia is part and parcel of Dean don't belittle it but some
[72:44]people have been so engrossed in Shar they forgot the purpose of
[72:47]Salah like your DH Das I remember I was in mecah I
[72:53]was praying you know and these two red hair creatures came to
[73:04]me three4 D they call them floods He Walks With His Radio
[73:15]excuse me sir he says your Dish Dash is too long it's
[73:20]Haram so I looked at him and I said first of all
[73:24]I don't know what you're talking about but I ignored him I
[73:28]mean he walked the two of them walked all the way to
[73:30]tell me hey your is too long sh my God they want
[73:36]to kill you like you know this is Shar it can be
[73:38]it's got to be exactly 75 millimeter are you kidding me what
[73:45]religion is this Allah says righteousness is not that you face East
[73:49]or West we in the Muslim um have this we condemn people
[73:57]by the the slightest violation of Shar you're CF you're going to
[74:02]jahanam stop try to get into the highest STS of paradise yourself
[74:09]and avoid hell keep yourself busy with that stop sending everybody else
[74:16]to help righteousness is not that you turn your faces towards east
[74:19]and west but righteousness is that one should believe in Allah and
[74:23]the last day notice pure pure is uh belief in Allah and
[74:31]day of judgment that's the outer structure the inner structure is Nu
[74:36]and the extraction of Nu is is an extraction of toed because
[74:46]a group has violated toed we extended it anyway let me continue
[75:20]while we're talking about this because time is of is short but
[75:23]I'm just going to translate this very quickly focus on it please
[75:28]and ask yourself and myself how do I complete my faith oh
[75:31]Allah what is it that I need people ask me that question
[75:33]all what do I need to do to be to have a
[75:36]complete faith well here's the protocol and then let's work for the
[75:38]rest of our lives perfecting this that's it it's very simple it's
[75:41]not rocket science Allah says that righteousness is that one should believe
[75:50]in Allah the last day the Angels the Mala how important are
[75:56]angels very important the book theab of Allah the prophets all 124,000
[76:03]you cannot take one out you take one out your Islam falls
[76:08]apart Faith falls apart the complete system Allah says You must have
[76:13]faith in the complete system and and now that's the belief that's
[76:17]the now let's look at the for give away wealth out of
[76:21]love for him to the near of kin and the orphans and
[76:25]the needy and the wafer and the Beggars and for the emancipation
[76:28]of the captives meaning freedom of slaves remember we'll talk about generally
[76:32]I'll touch on the principle of slavery in Islam Islam eradicated slavery
[76:37]in a three-prong attack it was the most genius approach ever in
[76:43]the annals of History nobody eradicated slavery better than Islam I'll talk
[76:49]about it in the future but Allah says emancipation of captives the
[76:52]maintenance of Prayer paying the poor rate the zakat by the way
[76:59]which we the followers of pay is a form of zakat please
[77:05]understand that there is a specific kind of zakat which is called
[77:09]Zak then there is also which is 1if it's a form of
[77:14]zakat so we'll talk about that but Allah says they pay the
[77:16]poor rate and they maintain their promises wow Integrity when you look
[77:23]at a person who maintains their promises you they maintain their promises
[77:32]when they make a promise and the patient in distress when they
[77:36]are in difficulty they're patient why are they patient they see the
[77:40]day of judgment they know the future they see tomorrow they see
[77:45]it so clear what better example can we give than in the
[77:49]event of carala the sh the 72 warriors were talking with each
[77:55]other the night before the massacre like they were already in the
[77:58]day of judgment and they were talking to each other now to
[78:00]when you if you go in front of me and you die
[78:03]you say Salam to the prophet okay and you say Salam to
[78:06]IM Ali I mean they used to talk like you know the
[78:08]prophet is outside because they have a vision honestly between you and
[78:17]I how many of us have that Vision please go home tonight
[78:20]and think about it how clear is my vision that there is
[78:25]a day of judgment and then ask yourself who have I lied
[78:31]to who have I cheated who have I abused by the way
[78:34]just knowing if you abuse somebody is a gift of God because
[78:38]the greatest wisdom is knowing how little you know compound ignorance jilia
[78:47]is when you don't know that you don't know patient in distress
[78:53]and affliction in the time of conflicts what happened in Gaza what's
[78:58]happening around the world today patience some people are losing faith some
[79:04]people are losing hope don't whatever is happening is a gift of
[79:08]God it happens in mysterious ways Corrections are needed and Allah says
[79:16]these are they who are true to themselves and these are they
[79:19]who guard against evil so the verse I recited is an introduction
[79:25]I will talk about it tomorrow and my remaining nights I want
[79:29]to talk about vulnerabilities the characters that you and I develop that
[79:35]are very dangerous in society if I look at the depression level
[79:38]in society it's not because physics is not working it's not because
[79:43]biology is not working it's because humans are causing pain on other
[79:49]humans you and I suffering depression and anxiety okay and divorces because
[80:00]other humans are disobeying Allah and they cause harm and it's built
[80:05]on fundamental principles of vulnerabilities we need to talk about it the
[80:10]Quran eradicates the entire system amazingly the minute you understand it you'll
[80:15]start to look inside yourself and all the negative qualities you and
[80:19]I have just by the principles laid out in the Quran just
[80:23]they go away like amazingly final Point Alcoholics Anonymous which is a
[80:28]vulnerability people who are alcoholic are addicted to a substance that destroys
[80:37]them Alcoholics Anonymous is not a religious organization but I think they
[80:42]have 12 steps the first step is to believe in God just
[80:47]think about it e
