[0:02]bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Oh salat wa salam o allah say

[0:07]the mousseline Habib Allah Allah Ameen I will consume in most of

[0:10]our Muhammad while elevated by a beam of the Hadean belonging to

[0:16]the himmatwala add an image bohemian at an Italian Dean pollo a

[0:20]la villita beat karim allah subhanaw taala states in the chapter of

[0:25]Annisa chapter 4 verse 1 of 3 he says in the salata

[0:31]Kanekalon mini- and Makuta allah subhanaw taala says that surely prayer is

[0:36]a written book upon the believers so de la laguna leaned amenable

[0:40]ah assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullah wa barakato today insha'Allah our goal is

[0:49]to talk about the topic of time and I entitled this lecture

[0:53]I'm telling how you spend your time and I'll tell you who

[1:00]you are so something that we all need we all seem to

[1:03]be always running out of time right no matter how many hours

[1:07]there are in the day it's just never enough and especially you

[1:11]know in these days unfortunately even though many of us used to

[1:16]ask for time used to ask for more time to be able

[1:21]to spend with our family to be able to spend with friends

[1:24]to be able to spend studying or learning something new or developing

[1:29]a specific skill it unfortunately we find ourselves bored tooling our thumbs

[1:37]anxious frustrated unable to cope with the current situation of the coronavirus

[1:41]right now there are some of us who have been able to

[1:48]take advantage of this time some of us who have been extremely

[1:52]successful at scheduling our time - you know maybe sign up for

[2:01]courses or to catch up on their homework or catch up on

[2:04]their sleep in some cases right it's important for us to understand

[2:11]how it is especially in these days how it is that we

[2:14]can invest our time properly so that we can ensure that our

[2:19]time is a reflection of our goals now in order to do

[2:22]so we'll be addressing the topic from a logical standpoint an academic

[2:27]standpoint as well as from an Islamic standpoint so let's get started

[2:36]so logically speaking we know that time was given to us by

[2:40]by our Creator right so we know this even though some people

[2:42]tell you while time is a virtual concept that is man-made no

[2:49]in reality allah subhanaw taala created the universe and when he created

[2:55]the universe he created it at a specific what we would call

[3:01]the zero point which is when the time of the universe began

[3:04]okay within the realm of time for us how we perceive time

[3:11]is always from the start from that starting point right and why

[3:14]we count billions of years and even a loss of honor to

[3:19]honor giving us a beginning to up to our life and an

[3:23]end to our life gives us a time span for living known

[3:25]as the lifespan right now the World Health Organization reports that the

[3:32]average human life span is about 70 to 72 years old so

[3:37]what I want to do is I want to take that number

[3:41]70 all right so let's see how our day is flay most

[3:43]of us and according to the studies on average people sleep eight

[3:48]hours a day eight hours a day is equivalent to 33 percent

[3:55]of that 70 years so that's that's equal to 23 years of

[3:58]sleep most of us we work or go to school for about

[4:03]8 hours 7 to 8 hours let's say with homework to 8

[4:10]hours if we're studying that again is another 33% of the average

[4:14]human life span which is another 23 years so so far I've

[4:20]spent 66 percent of my life span either sleeping or working between

[4:25]those two you're going to ask well what time do I have

[4:28]left to live to really live and and and enjoy myself and

[4:34]come closer to Allah well I hate to break it to you

[4:39]and the personal time that you have I'm out of your entire

[4:42]human lifespan which is 70 years old and you have another 33%

[4:46]left or a little over right 33.3% which again is another 23

[4:54]years so you're telling me Shaffer method out of my entire lifespan

[4:58]of 70 years on average that 33 the 23 years is going

[5:06]to go towards my sleep and 23 years is going to go

[5:09]towards my work and 23 years only is the time where I

[5:14]actually have to do something with my life that I enjoy that

[5:17]you know that may include spirituality or family time all right well

[5:22]I hate to break it to you let's break it down let's

[5:24]look at our personal time right that that 33 percent or the

[5:33]remaining 23 years let's say for example we give time to worshiping

[5:37]a loss of Honiton all right and let's split the 23 years

[5:45]8 years let's say I give to allah subhanaw taala and worship

[5:48]that's 11 percent of my life span and to family let's say

[5:51]another 8 years i give them right that's enough that's 11 percent

[5:58]8 years of my life only let's say I give 4 years

[6:03]to learning and 4 years to leisure that's 5.5 percent of my

[6:06]life to learning and 5.5 percent of my life to leisure this

[6:09]really puts stuff into perspective for me because now I realize that

[6:14]you know what maybe I'm sleeping too much now I know some

[6:17]of you will say to me Jeff NASA sleep is important you

[6:23]know studies have shown studies in neuropsychology have shown the importance of

[6:29]sleep yes but they've also shown that sleep length differs according to

[6:34]your age and according to your need right so I might need

[6:38]let's say 5 hours function productively someone else might need six and

[6:44]someone else might need eight a teenager might need 10 to 12

[6:47]hours of sleep or an adolescent because their brain is still developing

[6:52]so if your child is over sleeping right and they're of adolescent

[6:56]age or of teenage of their in their teenage years don't feel

[6:59]bad and don't make them guilty about it just make sure they

[7:04]don't miss out on their slow down right make sure they get

[7:07]to bed early so this is the reality then that we're facing

[7:13]now let's get a reality check here the reality is that this

[7:16]life span that a lot of how natal our Creator has given

[7:22]us has given us is truly a gift it's a gift and

[7:26]a blessing why because we have realized existence our own existence in

[7:34]this realm of this universe right and that has afforded us the

[7:38]ability to get to know allah subhanaw taala and realize his magnificence

[7:43]and his power and his capabilities and all of the wondrous and

[7:48]amazing things that are in this world are a true testament to

[7:57]his greatness and they make me want to get to know him

[7:59]even more and to be thankful and to show gratitude as we

[8:05]mentioned before for all the gifts that he has afforded me in

[8:08]this world if at the very least at the very least forgiving

[8:12]me existence that surely my purpose would be to thank him for

[8:15]it is such a great gift for him to give me for

[8:18]him to deem me worthy of existence so then my lifespan must

[8:21]include time to thank him and to show gratitude for that now

[8:27]we did say that I'm going to dedicate all of my faculties

[8:30]as a result everything that he's afforded me to thank him to

[8:35]show him gratitude so logically speaking even though you know the breakdown

[8:40]of the years is pretty scary right and it's a true wake-up

[8:43]call but if I logically speaking dedicate myself and everything that I

[8:48]do whether it's my work whether it's my sleep whether it's my

[8:53]a personal time whether it's with my family or learning or worshipping

[9:02]allah subhanaw taala that all of that time all of it I

[9:05]getting into a lot of panna cotta now all of a sudden

[9:11]I've changed the equation right I've made a formula that works for

[9:15]success right for me to be able to achieve the goals that

[9:21]I want and the greatest goal is to dedicate oneself to allah

[9:26]subhanaw taala and doing that with every single moment is really a

[9:31]decision that we make right so if before I sleep I say

[9:36]I dedicate my sleep to becoming stronger so that I can better

[9:39]worship my Lord when I wake up then now I've dedicated my

[9:44]sleep to my Creator right so even though it seems that sleep

[9:47]may be a waste of time when it really isn't because a

[9:52]lot of important body functions occur at that time a lot of

[9:57]maintenance occurs according to science to the brain to to the all

[10:00]of the human organs everything during that time of sleep it's a

[10:07]time of rejuvenation right it's a time in which your body is

[10:10]able to recuperate and recharge itself for the upcoming day just like

[10:14]you recharge the battery on your phone now so what we're saying

[10:20]then is what we really need to do is use our time

[10:24]wisely because we know that God gave us a specific life span

[10:27]and that that life span as we know because our existence is

[10:30]with purpose because he's an all purpose for creator then that must

[10:35]be used every single moment must be for the purpose then of

[10:39]pleasing him right so I spent it in I'm going to spend

[10:44]that time in showing gratitude to Allah won't you spend that time

[10:48]in seeking to know Allah better I'm going to spend that time

[10:53]in learning more about myself right because if I know myself I

[10:58]know through contemplating about myself I was able to realize the reality

[11:01]of Allah's existence so spending more time in contemplation logically is something

[11:05]that I should do spending time and also knowing allows creation spending

[11:09]time with others whether it's my parents and showing them appreciation because

[11:13]that's a show of appreciation that's a lot for allah subhanaw taala

[11:17]as well whether it's other creations whether there's people a my people

[11:20]that I know in my relatives and my family as well as

[11:26]acquaintances and friends and companions and those who I don't know trying

[11:28]to get to know new people so that I show a la

[11:33]soprano Dada how much I appreciate this blessing of life and this

[11:35]blessing of all those who are around me also I spent time

[11:40]learning knowledge right that just makes sense because that's going to be

[11:44]my my spiritual sustenance right so my knowledge gaining has to be

[11:49]obviously for two things right for worldly gain and as well as

[11:51]for spiritual gain when I say spiritual gain that's obvious right because

[11:55]if I learn information that's going to help me strengthen my spiritual

[11:59]sustenance then I'm going to be able to increase my connection with

[12:03]Allah and as a result I'm going to increase my iman and

[12:06]as a result I'm able to make better decisions as for my

[12:11]physical sustenance I know that I have to go to school to

[12:12]study to be a doctor or a lawyer or an engineer right

[12:16]or to if I am a professional then I'm going to increase

[12:21]my skill set so that I make sure that you know I'm

[12:25]I'm still a viable member of the working force and that way

[12:29]whatever wealth I get I can use it to put food on

[12:32]my table right I can use it to start a family I

[12:35]can use it to give charity I can use it to help

[12:39]my parents and my family members and and those who are impoverished

[12:42]in the community and I can use it to sponsor orphans and

[12:48]on that note I highly encourage you to sponsor orphans either from

[12:53]your local orphan organization or the orphan organization that's run by your

[13:01]Islamic Center or personally I'm involved with an organization called that I

[13:04]earn Social Care Foundation I'm gonna give them a plug for the

[13:07]orphans you know I'm willing to do anything a nine Social Care

[13:11]Foundation takes care of this and sponsors over 61,000 orphans in Iraq

[13:16]many of them are in need please check them out wherever you

[13:20]are or they're here in the UK or whether you're in Canada

[13:22]or in the United States so we've come then to the logical

[13:28]necessity that we have to use our time wisely and at that

[13:30]time is split it split up into two time for sustenance physically

[13:36]and time for sustenance spiritually right now let's see what the academics

[13:43]say I'm specifically going to look at a man by the name

[13:45]of Brian Tracy it has a book called master your time master

[13:49]your life is a very good book I highly recommend it and

[13:52]what he does is he breaks time or our time let's say

[13:57]into ten different types of time he says well the first type

[14:01]of time you need is called strategic planning time he says that

[14:07]in strategic planning time you need to 1 write down 10 goals

[14:12]for your next 12 months ok - he says select one goal

[14:17]that has the greatest impact on your life and 3 he says

[14:20]write to plan to achieve that goal this is your strategic plan

[14:24]right write down the 10 goals for the next year select the

[14:27]one goal that has the its most impactful upon your life write

[14:30]a plan to achieve that goal number two he says the second

[14:36]type of time he calls productive time he says in this time

[14:42]we need to make a daily list of tasks for the next

[14:44]day so make it the night before he says secondly make sure

[14:49]that you prioritize those tasks right so prioritize them according to importance

[14:53]and then on the day that your the next day when you're

[14:59]going to be working on those tasks make sure that you start

[15:02]with those that you have prioritized and make sure that your distraction-free

[15:07]okay so don't use your phone don't use you know electronic devices

[15:14]don't check your social media the third type of timing he mentions

[15:18]is he calls it income improvement time he says identify the one

[15:22]skill that you have that if improved would make you a success

[15:26]that's number one he says to set a goal to develop that

[15:32]skill three he says set 10 hours aside per week minimum to

[15:38]develop that skill so for income improvement time then three things identify

[15:45]the one skill that if you improve it it's going to make

[15:51]you more successful set a goal to develop that skill set a

[15:54]minimum of 10 hours per week to develop that skill the fourth

[15:59]type of time that he mentions is called spare time he says

[16:03]use that time to acquire new skills number one number two he

[16:09]saw it he says resolved to be of the 20% the top

[16:11]20% in your field and see he says find out what the

[16:16]highest earners in your field do and make sure you set a

[16:18]plan to do it the fourth type of the fifth type of

[16:23]time that he speaks of is work time he says work all

[16:28]of your work time meaning don't be distracted don't chitchat don't go

[16:35]to the water fountain / verbally speaking don't you know chat on

[16:39]your on your social media while you're working make sure that when

[16:42]you're there you're present 100% focus on what you're doing number one

[16:49]he says to turn off any distractions at work right don't answer

[16:52]phone calls don't unless they're it's an emergency and three he says

[16:57]plan your meetings with agendas and with minutes to avoid time wasting

[17:01]to stay on topic the sixth type of time that he mentions

[17:07]he calls creative time he says in this time there are three

[17:10]things we should do one we should mentally picture our life in

[17:13]its ideal form how we see it so visualize how your life

[17:21]should be ideally in your eyes he says have their ideas just

[17:25]take that opportunity that time that creative time to just think about

[17:32]new ideas to contemplate ideas to become more spiritual ideas to be

[17:38]more successful at work ideas to improve your relationships with your with

[17:42]your friends and with your family ideas to solve human needs for

[17:51]example right and he says thirdly make sure that you are in

[17:53]a state of solitude to contemplate give yourself that solitude that silence

[17:58]that time during the day every day where let's say you spend

[18:07]half an hour or an hour but that time you've set aside

[18:09]to make sure that you are in solitude just for contemplation time

[18:16]number seven he calls problem-solving and decision-making time he says number one

[18:23]writes your biggest problem or challenge number two he says write write

[18:28]it in the form of a question okay he says so whatever

[18:33]your biggest problem or challenge is once you identify it what you

[18:36]want to write is the question is well how do I solve

[18:40]it what is the solution to this challenge or this problem then

[18:43]he says the last thing you should do is brainstorm solution and

[18:46]make sure that you ask others for help so that you use

[18:51]the collective because in problem-solving using the collective mind is a lot

[18:59]better than thinking just by yourself but always start by thinking by

[19:04]yourself and then ask others as well the eighth type of time

[19:08]that he mentions he calls it people and family time he says

[19:12]number one identified the most important people in your life he says

[19:17]what could you do to say sorry what could you do or

[19:22]say to make them feel better and happier in their lives and

[19:25]he says set a goal to say or do something every single

[19:32]day right to make them feel better and to make them have

[19:35]a better day and to help them improve their life the ninth

[19:40]type of time he mentions is relaxation time he says set a

[19:45]goal that you schedule your relaxation time ahead of time he says

[19:49]make sure that this relaxation time has absolutely no work scheduled in

[19:54]it whatsoever not even checking your emails at all right shut out

[19:58]the entire world okay and focus on relaxation time because studies have

[20:01]shown that this is an important way to rejuvenate your creativity to

[20:06]give you greater energy it's basically a waking form of recharging your

[20:11]battery because we waste energy or we expend energy in thinking we

[20:15]expend energy in working physically and we expend energy emotionally as well

[20:21]studies have shown and he says in order to do this book

[20:27]your holidays early like a year in advance and that way you'll

[20:31]have no choice but to actually follow through with your vacation time

[20:38]and not cancel and cancel cancel them and do not cancel them

[20:40]because of the fact that you will have prepaid for everything he

[20:46]says the night the 10th type of time that he that he

[20:48]mentions is quiet time is a scheduled time for solitude for silence

[20:55]what this is going to do is is this going to help

[21:00]you shut everything out let's say it's a half hour a day

[21:04]our a day or even 15 minutes a day or 10 minutes

[21:08]three times a day for example he says slow down slow down

[21:15]your day slow down your breathing slow down your thinking inside us

[21:19]it says and if you do that what that's going to do

[21:24]is going to help you increase your awareness you're going to be

[21:27]more aware of what's around you you're going to be more attune

[21:32]with your environment so focus on for example listening to the wind

[21:36]or if you're next to a body of water to you know

[21:41]the water itself and he specifically mentions water because he says that

[21:46]humans have a natural affinity to water Leon and he says meditate

[21:49]make sure you set time aside for you to meditate so I

[21:56]found this book a book that's a good a good read a

[21:58]quick read it's very practical and I highly advise you to take

[22:05]a look at it so this is the academic portion okay so

[22:09]notice that the academics then and and this man he he trains

[22:15]companies and corporations all over the world he's very well known and

[22:19]you know I don't get anything for for talking about his book

[22:22]but it was a book that I benefited from I read it

[22:27]recently inshallah you'll benefit benefit from it too but it gives you

[22:30]an idea of what it is that modern science has come to

[22:36]because what he does is he brings all of the studies and

[22:41]all of the books that he's he's read and he he puts

[22:42]it all in a nice package for us so that we benefit

[22:47]from different resources finally what I want to talk about then is

[22:51]the Islamic perspective we covered the logical perspective the academic perspective now

[22:55]let's look at the academic perspective now we started off with the

[23:00]chapter of Annisa verse 103 and in that verse allah subhanaw taala

[23:04]says in the silastic an italian mini- and ma futa that prayer

[23:08]surely is a written book upon the believers now let's go back

[23:13]to those original figures right the original figures were if you recall

[23:16]out of the 17 year spam we have 23 years which is

[23:25]33% sleep we have 23 years which is 33% in work time

[23:27]and then we have the remaining the remaining 33% 33.3 in each

[23:34]case specifically dedicated to ourselves we broke that down logically speaking in

[23:42]that 23 years into eight years for God eight years for I

[23:47]think it was before it was it for for learning right let

[23:52]me see here yeah four years exact of ATR sorry for family

[23:56]for years for learning and for years for leisure now you can

[24:01]flip-flop and change them around let's see what Islam tells us it's

[24:04]not tells us look the most important priority for you okay is

[24:07]to realize the importance of time and allah subhanaw taala he commands

[24:12]us in the holy quran he says a famous orator at osaka

[24:15]he says make sure that you pray and that you give us

[24:23]okay so he also says when of course we can't speak about

[24:27]time without mentioning the chapter of the last war allah subhanaw taala

[24:29]says while us in an incident efficacy Allah swears by time he

[24:35]says surely man is in a state of loss and we feel

[24:38]it right we're losing time with every breath that we take Imam

[24:42]Ali said I'm a la la he has a saying in which

[24:47]he says that with every breath man takes he is one breath

[24:50]closer to death right it's not morbid at all if you think

[24:56]about it because it makes us think of the end game right

[24:58]at the end result their reward in the hereafter because we have

[25:02]to be of those who and are those who have for sure

[25:07]right during our day and we're fasting and we're praying and hamdullah

[25:10]as in the chapter of baccarat verses 45 and 46 in which

[25:17]allah subhanaw taala tells us to seek refuge in patients which is

[25:20]fasting and prayer surely it's tough to do except for those who

[25:23]are who have not consciousness for sure and that God consciousness is

[25:28]achieved by those who always have this mentality this state of mind

[25:34]which is Aladeen ever known and known when a poor appeal and

[25:36]no Malaya Rajan those are the ones that believe that they will

[25:40]meet their Lord and that you he they shall return right so

[25:42]what does that mean that means that you're always in a state

[25:44]of vigilance right you're always vigilant about how you're spending your time

[25:51]okay making sure that every decision in Islam that you make within

[25:55]this time is not a decision that causes loss but rather causes

[25:58]a game and this is why it's important to look at the

[26:00]chapter of last many of us you know we don't realize the

[26:05]value of this of this chapter and Allah is telling us butcher

[26:08]you're in a state of loss you're losing time time is limited

[26:14]okay so what does he say he says I swear by time

[26:17]well ask in an incentive fee of course surely man is in

[26:21]a state of loss inland ladina except for those this is the

[26:24]part that I want to the formula I don't want to be

[26:26]of those who have lost time right I don't want to be

[26:30]of those who as in the chapter of an oven let me

[26:34]know oh the man who has passed away or the individual has

[26:37]passed away and asks his Lord for more time he says rob

[26:45]you only I'm sorry female rekt oh allah let me return so

[26:48]that i may do good give me a second chance right he

[26:54]says hello ha no your time is up right pens and pencils

[26:58]down right finito you're done right Allah subhana Allah says look you

[27:05]have limited time so don't realize that you only have if you're

[27:09]sleeping eight hours out of the day right for a 70 year

[27:11]lifespan then literally that's 23 years of your life dawn 33.3% right

[27:20]how are you going to spend the rest of it how are

[27:22]you gonna spend the rest of it right and this is what

[27:24]a lot of Conner talent wants me to do he says look

[27:28]it says inlet ladina Avenue except for those who believe so first

[27:31]I have to focus on proving a lot existence and that proof

[27:35]is going to consume me right it's going to consume my very

[27:41]being because I realize a lot importance to me I dedicate every

[27:43]single part of me to allah subhanaw taala my time G my

[27:49]spirituality my emotions everything goes towards pleasing allah subhanaw taala and then

[27:54]what what that's going to do is that's going to mat be

[27:56]manifested so my inside feelings of spirituality and closeness to Allah will

[28:00]automatically be manifested intellectually speaking and rationally speaking into what into what

[28:08]I mean oh sorry hot into doing good deeds during that time

[28:11]that I the belief has to because we said we said al-iman

[28:19]ly hakuna Allah be a melon right that um we said that

[28:21]the Prophet says an Islam after our own when a mano a

[28:28]mano a problem on he says that if you're a Muslim you

[28:32]say to Allah Allah Allah you submit and say that a lot

[28:37]is is your Creator that there is no other God but he

[28:40]and that Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is His Messenger and um

[28:50]what happens after that I want to elevate myself to the level

[28:58]of a model of Iman Iman Iman she right that belief in

[29:01]allah subhanaw taala and i manifest it in my actions right and

[29:05]when i manifested in my actions i manifest it within the realm

[29:11]of the lifespan but i had within the remaining time that I

[29:15]have of my life solanum Hamid one so allah subhanaw taala says

[29:23]look first and foremost you have to realize that you have to

[29:26]do your prayers why because in the salat Atena and if I

[29:31]will move that Allah says Allah commands us to pray then he

[29:33]tells us the reason for bring a lot wouldn't promise you know

[29:36]do something without telling us the reason especially something as important as

[29:39]prayer so he says listen pray and I want you to make

[29:45]sure that you understand that prayer is a written book for those

[29:47]who consider themselves to be believers those who believe in me prioritize

[29:53]their prayer meaning 1 meaning that this is time that you've set

[29:58]literally in stone that is unshakeable uh erasable this is time that

[30:03]is a meeting between me and my lord 1 remember how Brian

[30:08]Tracy said set time for meetings make sure that they're scheduled at

[30:11]specific times ensure that you take meaning minutes and that you set

[30:15]an agenda well allah subhanaw taala does that already for us right

[30:19]he tells us that the times for Salah specifically are and the

[30:25]do Lukesh MC well that's at the lane or prominent fashion okay

[30:30]and he tells us in the Quran effective economy Judah so he

[30:36]does is there are three times for you to prayer to pray

[30:38]you have five prayers but you have three times of the day

[30:44]to pray at Zenith at Megara and at fetchin so this is

[30:46]according to the holy quran so based on this man my day

[30:51]is already split up into thirds right I have my day after

[30:53]I wake up I pray my morning prayer right now I have

[30:58]the first third of the day up until Zenith which is when

[31:02]the Sun is in the highest point of the sky as soon

[31:04]as it moves out a little that's time for my boring-ass of

[31:07]Prayer so when I start off my day I start off my

[31:13]day focused on Allah soprano tada reminding myself of a loss of

[31:15]Hanukkah and I know Allah doesn't burden us with more than we

[31:17]can handle so he only gives us two records doesn't make it

[31:20]heavy for us in the middle of the day however he gives

[31:23]us four and four four four four and four for us or

[31:28]why because he knows that we're busy with work it's in the

[31:32]middle of the day remember eight hours of the day were work

[31:33]and those are the morning that to noon and afternoon hours right

[31:40]in those eight hours we're taking at you know a hundred thousand

[31:43]rpm trying to get things done especially if we're focused on our

[31:49]on our studies and and focused hard on achieving our goals at

[31:52]work so he says listen you need to you need more time

[31:56]to be able to focus on me so I'm going to give

[31:57]you more like I ought to be able to do so and

[31:59]he tells us that we should in half of Alice allotted most

[32:03]all we have to make sure that we pay special attention to

[32:06]that time of the and and and a soft prayer why because

[32:13]it's the busiest time of the day and that's the time where

[32:15]we're most heedless of allah subhanaw taala because we're focused more on

[32:19]materialistic in the third time of the day then so that's the

[32:25]first third the second third goes from lower all the way to

[32:27]the hoarder nasser all the way to Muhammad and Isha that's the

[32:33]second third of the day right the third third of the day

[32:35]is going to be from that time from Madrid and Asia all

[32:40]the way again to fetch it so that's the so far we

[32:45]have three thirds right specifically thirds now you're going to say to

[32:48]me well how am I going to be able to dedicate that

[32:50]time towards allah subhana to other one i have worked a lot

[32:54]spano data again doesn't burden us with more than we can handle

[32:56]he says look if you do your fur up you do your

[33:01]obligations and you do it what then what's going to happen is

[33:08]you're going to be able to transcend to a lot if you

[33:10]have that kosher we have so many iterations right prophet muhammad sallallahu

[33:15]alayhi wa sallam he says he says lelache open and let eat

[33:19]at home how about them Laura I'm Anika - Sam Hartwell oh

[33:26]he says if it wasn't for the Satan's that circumambulate around the

[33:29]heart of love Adam meaning mankind he would be able to see

[33:33]the other realms beyond the round that he is in Adam and

[33:39]malakut the world of men apart which means that even through our

[33:44]4rf we can reach very high levels in another narration in which

[33:52]the prophet sallallaahu either seven is reported to have said their work

[33:56]enough a heart that you know the soul itself it has you

[33:59]know it has moves its bar on wah-wah-wah meaning that sometimes it

[34:06]feels further it's it's Iman is a little weaker sometimes it's in

[34:12]man is stronger he says when the iman is weaker then surah

[34:15]are enough just your obligations and when Iman is stronger no I

[34:22]think a benefit do the extra recommended things come on that allah

[34:25]subhanaw taala wants you to do okay so then so far we

[34:30]split our they already Islam and split our day for us into

[34:33]thirds now within those thirds remember our life is split up into

[34:42]one 33.3% sleep 33.3% work right and study 33.3% of personal time

[34:46]which we dedicate to you know and those things that we mentioned

[34:49]so that means then notice how a las put it up for

[34:54]us to in thirds right so I can achieve if I can

[34:59]achieve things in those thirds then literally I will have lived a

[35:02]balanced life now the first and most important thing that I need

[35:07]to achieve is and those daily prayers maintain them okay number one

[35:10]number two we also know that lots of Connor Tejada tells us

[35:16]that and we need to spend time in to double in understanding

[35:18]the Holy Quran Allah says FLI to the banana I love alumina

[35:24]father do they not take the time to understand the Holy Quran

[35:26]or are there locks on their hearts in this month of Ramadan

[35:29]we are reminded of the importance of Allah for many of us

[35:32]around the world are spending our time focusing on trying to finish

[35:35]an entire recitation of the holy flan perhaps the entire year we

[35:40]don't finish an entire recitation but in the month of Ramadan somehow

[35:43]because the seconds of course aren't changed as Prophet Muhammad says we

[35:46]are able to do so and those of us who aren't able

[35:51]to do so focus on improving their recitation focus on all of

[35:54]us of course should focus on improving our understanding of the Holy

[35:58]Quran if I can't finish reciting the Holy Quran then you know

[36:02]it's more important for me to understand the Holy Quran in its

[36:06]verses so whatever I do recite it's important for me to understand

[36:08]alright so focus on you know joining HFC or group joining a

[36:15]lecture that has stuffs here you know let's say following a group

[36:18]I don't know on on one of the social media groups that

[36:24]actually has a daily ayah daily Quran or nearly hadith from Nanjing

[36:28]Baraka for example or another hadith by a debate you know an

[36:32]Islamic law for example that's being pushed out that way you're always

[36:37]in a state of being educated throughout the day okay all right

[36:41]so so far our days split into thirds how should we spend

[36:45]that time right Allah among honey said a Malayalee he says look

[36:52]he says your days should be split into three okay walked only

[36:55]a big time for your Lord walked only a lake time for

[37:00]your family what was early enough sick and time for yourself notice

[37:04]logically we were also able to split our day that way as

[37:11]well right time for work time for your for a loss of

[37:13]Hamilton and time for yourself except we said time for yourself includes

[37:17]time for Allah because we didn't look at we we counted sleep

[37:22]separately direct because we said eight hours of sleep we notice in

[37:27]the holy quran allah subhanaw taala describes the entire time as a

[37:31]body of time that that time should be spent according to the

[37:36]chapter of vana chapter 20 verse 130 allah subhanaw taala says it

[37:40]beautifully he says what's up behind the blueish MC up level rubi

[37:43]how i mean lately for some water often know how a lot

[37:47]of paradises listen you should always be in a state of exaltation

[37:50]so always remember Allah subhana Tana don't ascribe a partner to Allah

[37:55]subhana Allah before sunrise before sunset and in the middle of the

[37:59]night and the ends of the day so every single moment should

[38:04]be in remembrance of Allah that way my entire waking time which

[38:07]is 23 years plus another 23 years so if we don't count

[38:14]the 23 years of sleep and we count just the 46 years

[38:20]of being awake right that time is fully dedicated towards Allah span

[38:25]table now we know that allah subhanaw taala also wants us step

[38:30]above market to pray salat lane to spend time reciting Quran in

[38:34]the middle of the night for Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu value Sarah used

[38:38]to spend his time in tahajud and praying salat zlil praying the

[38:41]night prayer and tahajud meaning recitation of the holy quran we mentioned

[38:45]a narration where one of the wives of the prophet saw him

[38:52]one day or was looking for him he wasn't in her bed

[38:53]she goes out looking for him only to find him in prostration

[38:59]you know at the at the base of their bed crying and

[39:01]worshiping Allah she asked him why he says should I not thank

[39:09]my lord so that means that since the Prophet is an example

[39:11]for us as well as a debate as well as our Imams

[39:16]who also did this during the night then I should also add

[39:19]a Jaffa and Jambi so many iterations that tell us that we

[39:24]should not take the full night of sleep that we should be

[39:29]of those who take the opportunity that in the third third of

[39:33]the night which is the best time to do it to try

[39:36]to get up so sleep early right so that you wake up

[39:38]before fedja so we can pray salat al or recite Quran if

[39:43]we're unable to then at least before we sleep we have clear

[39:46]narrations and in Caffey where imam and jack for assad Oksana Malaya

[39:51]lay he says even if you're a businessman the least that you

[39:53]can do if you're really busy in your life is make sure

[39:57]that you don't sleep or end that day before reciting at least

[40:00]ten verses of the Holy Father and Islam focus is greatly on

[40:09]improving each day right that today should not be equal to the

[40:12]day after it otherwise we will have cheated ourselves it states in

[40:18]the narration okay it encourages us to improve and increase the number

[40:23]of verses that we recite and understand in the Holy Quran so

[40:27]if i recite let's say you know i don't know 50 verses

[40:33]today okay or 10 verses today tomorrow I should recite 11 the

[40:36]day after I should recite 12 right if today I recited the

[40:38]10 and I understood the tank tomorrow I'll work on a new

[40:44]verse to understand you see so Islam is all about building on

[40:47]that time and focusing that time around a loss of Hanoi data

[40:53]first and foremost it's love doesn't say stay on your Sajjad and

[40:57]don't work because we believe that Allah may know a bada right

[41:00]it's reported that our Imam said Allah Manu a bada that work

[41:07]is a form of worship how's the worship if I dedicate as

[41:10]we did logically my work to Allah to pleasing Allah to feeding

[41:17]my kids to opening up a you know a house for my

[41:19]family right to helping my relatives and my near of kin to

[41:25]be to having better oven while attain allah subhanaw taala says in

[41:29]the chapter of el Baca he says mobile valid any asana and

[41:35]verse 83 he also says that we should give to those who

[41:36]are of the poor BA our relatives Eliot Amma the orphans when

[41:42]masakeen and those who are poor and he says make sure that

[41:44]you get to know people right yeah you're not enough enough now

[41:49]from induction juanfe but you are not sure when oka by Lolita

[41:52]article in The Chronicle mandala at palaces in the chapter for Jamaat

[41:56]and he says look o people we created you as male and

[42:01]female we made you nations and tribes so that you get to

[42:03]know each other surely the best of you are those who are

[42:06]greatest in piety so I have to work on my piety but

[42:08]my piety can only be achieved not theoretically but practically that once

[42:12]I gain this information of a Las existence I believe I must

[42:17]dedicate myself and all my faculties to Allah that I spend my

[42:21]day in my time in what an ominous I ll Adina Amma

[42:25]know why I'm here oh sorry Allah says also in the chapter

[42:33]of a baccarat and verse 83 he says woe kulilin nasi Hosanna

[42:37]the least that we can do is to say righteous words to

[42:40]people remember what did Brian Tracy say he said make sure you

[42:44]at least once a day say something nice to a relative you

[42:50]see or on from 1,400 years ago we didn't have to go

[42:55]and look at studies and you know what the academics discovered to

[42:59]know and to understand what it is that a loss of an

[43:04]italic expects of us and what logically we believe is true Islam

[43:08]and the Holy Quran a little bit truly give us a holistic

[43:12]guide as to how to spend our time during the day with

[43:20]that I'd like to ask a lot of Hamilton to afford us

[43:25]the time so that we can spend it in tweezing him whether

[43:28]it's our sleep whether it's our work or whether it's our our

[43:34]time with him or whether it's you know in getting to know

[43:39]his creations or appreciating what he's created or whether it's in our

[43:44]acts of kindness or benevolence in trying to emulate allah subhanaw taala

[43:49]that every single breathing moment becomes exactly as every single breathing moment

[43:55]is in this month that and faster confettis beyond that beyond this

[43:58]month that we establish the habits in this month that how we

[44:02]spend our time is optimally or optimal optimized for what Allah wants

[44:11]me to do for pleasing Allah subhanAllah because if we do so

[44:16]then our time will and how we use our time will reflect

[44:21]who we are we will become something that is associated with the

[44:24]unlimited and we know that allah subhanho - Allah is the greatest

[44:28]so if you're associated with greatness then how great are we going

[44:35]to be and we can achieve that by using our time wisely

[44:38]but if we don't then how lowly will be we will we

[44:43]be so if I want to be lofty and hine status then

[44:47]I spend my time as the unlimited creator wants me to spend

[44:51]it I asked that Allah subhana Allah gives us the ability in

[44:54]the world power to do so I asked Allah subhana Allah brings

[44:57]us closer to him with every breath but Allah brings us closer

[44:59]to him even in our sleep we dedicate our time including our

[45:04]sleep to becoming better human beings to rejuvenate rejuvenating ourselves so that

[45:08]we can serve allah subhanaw taala and his creations better so we

[45:12]can serve an imam and Hutcheson a Malayalee medalist in his appearance

[45:15]we ask that allah subhanaw taala bestows his mercy upon our dearly

[45:18]departed gives health to all of our sick repeats the deaths of

[45:20]all those who are in that removes the oppression from all those

[45:24]who are oppressed group returns those who are estranged back to their

[45:27]homelands and back to their families we ask that Allah gives health

[45:31]to the sick and that he cures all those who are afflicted

[45:34]with any sickness including for with 19 inshallah in in in this

[45:41]holy month we'll be able to use our time wisely and the

[45:43]best thing that we can do right now is to recite the

[45:47]soliton one excess fat high and dedicates everything that we learned today

[45:51]to the Imam and kutcher and to all those who mentioned
