[0:00]Ali Muhammad ald muham respected brothers and sisters imagine walking through life
[0:53]with two companions at your side at all time but these aren't
[1:01]any average companions because you cannot see them they are completely invisible
[1:09]but they're always at your side they always surround you no matter
[1:14]where you go these two companions are not just invisible but they're
[1:19]completely silent you never hear them speaking they don't talk to you
[1:23]they don't engage with you all they do is they watch you
[1:33]they monitor you and they just write and write and write every
[1:37]word that you utter they write it every glance that you take
[1:45]they write it every move that you make they write it in
[1:48]a book and there is no way that you can run away
[1:53]from these two anywhere you go they'll come after you they'll be
[1:56]with you you can't hide from them you can't run away from
[2:02]them and once they complete this book they will present it to
[2:05]you and you will have a chance to read everything that you
[2:10]did and said in your life it will be number one the
[2:16]longest book you've ever read in your life it will be the
[2:19]most important book that you ever read in your life and that
[2:24]is because that book will decide your fate on the day of
[2:31]judgment that book that will be presented to you will either make
[2:33]or break your day of judgment these two companions brothers and sisters
[2:38]are angels that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala has set and appointed for
[2:46]every human being Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala when the human being becomes
[2:51]M when be when we become responsible adults and Allah aael starts
[2:56]holding us accountable for our Deeds Allah subhah wa ta'ala appoints two
[3:03]angels for every human being these two angels just keep track of
[3:11]our he says in the Holy [Music] Quran Allah says there are
[3:26]Keepers that record everything that you do there are Keepers that watch
[3:31]monitor everything you do they know everything that you do everything you
[3:34]say and they will write it and these are the two angels
[3:40]that Allah subhah wa ta'ala has appointed for every human being every
[3:44]human being has their own personal to Angels the one on the
[3:48]right Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala instructs to write your good deeds the
[3:53]one on the left Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala instructs to write your
[4:00]bad Deeds Allah says in the Holy Quran Allah subhah wa taala
[4:10]says that these two angels are to your right and to your
[4:13]left they're just monitoring what you do watching closely what you do
[4:17]and they record tonight I'd like to speak about the these two
[4:22]angels brothers and sisters so that we can understand we are never
[4:25]alone in life yes there is the shatan who's always there and
[4:28]he's always whispering and he never never leaves us alone but Allah
[4:31]subhanahu wa ta'ala has also entrusted two angels to constantly monitor oural
[4:38]our actions and not just monitor it but they recorded in a
[4:44]book that will be presented to us on the day of judgment
[4:47]so who are these two angels what exactly did they record and
[4:52]how can we be on their good side because you want these
[4:54]two angels to be friends to be allies not foes you would
[4:59]not want them to be your enemies when they know everything that
[5:02]you did and they wrote it who are these two angels the
[5:07]say the one on the right that writes The Good Deeds his
[5:10]name is ra ra and the one on your left his name
[5:16]is so everyone has his own it's not one for every human
[5:22]being no I have my own and I have my own and
[5:27]every single one of you the same thing now what exactly did
[5:30]these two Angels write these two angels write three things brothers and
[5:35]sisters listen carefully number one the first thing that that they are
[5:40]ordered by Allah to monitor closely and to record is your words
[5:44]every word that you speak they write it on that book Allah
[5:50]says this in the Holy Quran every word that you say that
[5:59]you utter every word that you utter in life you will find
[6:06]and they are ready to write these words if it is something
[6:11]good RA will write it on the right side if it's something
[6:17]bad if it's something impure then the other angel will write it
[6:20]on the other side everything we say brothers and sisters and you
[6:26]would be appalled brothers and sisters when you read about studies that
[6:30]tell us how much an average human being speaks per day how
[6:35]many words do we say per day when you realize how much
[6:41]we talk then you understand why it's important that Allah subhah wa
[6:45]ta'ala writes all of that because there's so much it has to
[6:48]be written and recorded how many words do we speak on average
[6:52]brothers and sisters you can Google this there's been many studies the
[6:57]average human being according to most studies says 16,000 words per day
[7:03]per day we're a very talkative creation brothers and sisters 16,000 words
[7:12]per day and this is the average there are people that talk
[7:15]way more than that right people sometimes whose job requires more talking
[7:21]teachers speakers like me probably 60,000 words especially when I have lectures
[7:26]and U people who have to answer phone calls the whole day
[7:29]couns but the average is 16,000 now I have seen certain studies
[7:35]that differentiate between men and women real studies that state women on
[7:42]average speak more than men sometimes twice as much 1.5 times as
[7:46]much now not all studies they agree but you will find a
[7:49]large amount of studies they all mention this that an average women
[7:56]speak more than men why so that's a different topic and that's
[7:58]why I've I've heard from and marriage counselors they say that when
[8:04]a husband and wife come the most common complaint that they hear
[8:09]from husbands is my wife talks too much she talks too much
[8:11]and I can't I can't handle it anymore and when you ask
[8:16]the wife she says the husband doesn't communicate properly he doesn't talk
[8:21]he doesn't say anything so this is a trend that sometimes is
[8:24]found because some people they want to vent maybe this is their
[8:27]way to vent uh they talk they want to communicate and other
[8:31]people maybe they're not that comfortable in communicating like that but the
[8:38]average is 16,000 words per person that we speak now these poor
[8:41]Angels they just have to write these 16,000 words every single day
[8:47]now 16,000 words brothers and sisters on standard paper that's about 35
[8:53]pages every single day we produce 35 Pages worth of talk every
[9:00]10 days that's a volume that's a whole book there are some
[9:05]people that say I've not written any books I wish one day
[9:07]I can write books no Habi you've written hundreds of books without
[9:13]even you knowing it every 10 days we produce a book on
[9:17]average every month three books right if it's every 10 days one
[9:20]book so every month we produce three books every year it would
[9:27]be how many books 36 now if you live for 70 years
[9:33]7 years of after being M how much is 70 * 36
[9:35]those MA mathematicians 2,500 volumes brothers and sisters and Allah subhanahu wa
[9:41]ta'ala says that the this book of your Allah will present it
[9:47]to you I don't know who which poor Angel has to carry
[9:50]those 2,500 books some now that we see everything is digitalized maybe
[9:57]it's it's like an a tablet an iPad or something like that
[10:01]the point is 2,500 books and that's just the words that you've
[10:06]spoken imagine if Allah wants to go through every word that you've
[10:10]said and hold you accountable just reading that boring annoying book how
[10:14]many times we say w probably a thousand times every day right
[10:19]so they wah is the most common word probably here I think
[10:23]so just reading that book brothers and sisters will take forever let
[10:27]alone imagine Allah wants to ask you why did you say this
[10:30]why did you say that why were you so mean why did
[10:34]you yell why did you this why did you that that's why
[10:36]the day of judgments brothers and sisters is a very long day
[10:40]why because Allah subhah wa ta'ala wants to hold us accountable for
[10:43]what we say the problem is we talk too much we make
[10:48]our own trial more difficult on the day of judgment that's why
[10:50]you see here cops they tell you when they want to arrest
[10:52]you you have the right to remain silent brothers and sisters the
[10:56]best thing you can do in life is to remain silent for
[10:58]your in fact if all you do in life is you remain
[11:03]silent this is the easiest way to go to paradise first of
[11:07]all it's the fastest way so you can skip all that nonsense
[11:10]16,000 words a day and second of all what's in those 16,000
[11:17]words do we think about what we say brothers and sisters those
[11:20]words are they well thought of am I just being impulsive how
[11:23]many times do we disrespect other individuals do we hurt their feelings
[11:30]we backbite we lie so many of these words brothers and sisters
[11:33]when we say them they will come back to haunt us on
[11:37]the day of judgment when Allah subhanahu waala shows me my book
[11:40]of and that's why there's aith from where he says most of
[11:51]our mistakes and our sins are from our tongue it's a very
[11:57]small organ brothers and sisters but it's a very destructive Ive organ
[12:02]this organ the small organ the tongue and there's a famous Hadith
[12:06]that says if you think your speech is worthy it's valuable it's
[12:14]silver then silence is gold we've heard this right this is a
[12:17]Hadith silence is gold because if you're silent at least the least
[12:24]thing you're not sinning and said maybe I'm not doing good deeds
[12:28]yes when you speak speak you can do good with your tongue
[12:31]but the least thing that you can say is that when you're
[12:35]silent you're not doing Haram and this brothers and sisters not doing
[12:38]is the best thing you can do and this is what told
[12:42]after he gave us about the month of Ramadan the beauties of
[12:48]Ramadan the characteristics of the month of Ramadan IM Ali asked him
[12:52]a question what's the best thing I can do in Ramadan now
[12:57]the prophet could have saidah Quran all these things are great but
[13:04]you know what's even better than all of that the IM said
[13:08]the best thing is to stay away from har do do nothing
[13:11]basically don't speak stay away from Haram and the best way you
[13:17]can stay away from Haram is silence that's why you find so
[13:21]many Traditions from they speak about the virtue of Silence you want
[13:26]to go to paradise you want to be loved you want to
[13:31]stay away from problems and and danger just control your tongue and
[13:34]you will see how everything will be so much better for you
[13:37]so this brothers and sisters is the first thing that the Angels
[13:44]these two angels are instructed by Allah to record everything we say
[13:49]once it comes out of my mouth but there's no way to
[13:52]retract it it will be recorded in that book this is number
[13:58]one number two the second thing that they are required to include
[14:02]to record Monitor and record in the book is our actions everything
[14:11]that we do everything that we every decision that we make every
[14:15]movement they will record it in that book likewise there's a study
[14:22]that I've seen from Robert University of New York it says that
[14:26]on average how many decisions conscious decisions does an a average human
[14:30]being make on a a 24 hours how many do you think
[14:37]60,000 words every single day how many conscious decisions 35,000 35,000 decisions
[14:48]conscious decisions yeah when you're sleeping probably you all left and right
[14:54]if you're sleeping next to your wife or husband you smack them
[14:56]but that's not conscious right that's not on purpose we're talking about
[15:02]conscious decisions 35,000 so on average every 2 seconds you're making a
[15:08]decision and when you make that decision they will write this is
[15:14]what he decided to do now why every two seconds how does
[15:17]it come all the way add up to 35,000 because when you
[15:22]look at certain acts that we do brothers and sisters it's not
[15:25]one act it's really a bunch of Acts together for example right
[15:30]now you're attending in this Auditorium listening to the lecture this is
[15:33]not one act why because let's say the lecture is 45 minutes
[15:39]every minute you had to make a conscious decision that I'm going
[15:43]to listen another minute another minute another 10 seconds another 20 seconds
[15:47]that's why there are people that will come they will leave after
[15:50]5 minutes they will leave after 10 minutes they will leave after
[15:55]15 minutes after 20 are all these people equal obviously not the
[15:59]person who stayed for the 45 minutes they exercised much more decisions
[16:02]they did more than the person who attended 5 10 minutes right
[16:09]so some individuals they stay the whole 45 minutes they don't leave
[16:13]thank you to those that stay the 45 minutes but the Angels
[16:15]they will write minute one they listen minute two they listen minute
[16:18]three they it's not just they attended a lecture no this is
[16:23]not just one thing you have to break it down and even
[16:28]while you sit and listen brothers and sisters you're not just listening
[16:32]some people may think while I'm sitting I'm doing all the Talking
[16:36]you're listening you shouldn't be talking or at least I hope you
[16:38]shouldn't be talking right but all you're doing is listening but no
[16:45]think about it how many things do you do movements decisions while
[16:49]you are listening because we human beings number one we can multitask
[16:54]right and number two just monitor yourself how many times during your
[16:59]lecture do you reach for your phone because you got a notification
[17:03]that Angel's going to write it he looked at his phone 730
[17:08]times during the lecture sometimes we'll even take it and we'll start
[17:11]messaging I see some people laughing in the middle of the lecture
[17:14]crying everything different world I'm talking I think they're laughing at my
[17:18]joke seems like no they're laughing at a joke they're having a
[17:23]conversation with their friend right some people you just see them type
[17:26]type type I give them the benefit of the doubt inshah they're
[17:28]right my lecture hopefully they'll make it into a book but no
[17:34]they're probably working on their school their paper for school or I
[17:36]don't know something else but the point is every time you reach
[17:39]for your phone this is a decision you this is a movement
[17:43]it will be written in your book every time you look at
[17:47]your watch what time is it when is the say going to
[17:49]finish his boring lecture this is something that will be written in
[17:52]your book ofal you have a drink with you you take a
[17:56]sip of that drink of the juice of the coffee the whatever
[18:02]that will be written in your book of sometimes you just reposition
[18:06]the angels are ordered by Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala that they have
[18:11]to write even this because this was a conscious decision and it
[18:15]was an act that you did sometimes you yawn the yawn will
[18:18]be written sometimes you may just exercise or stretch right not exercise
[18:22]stretch in the middle of the lecture this will be if you
[18:26]pick your nose please don't pick your nose just example this will
[18:29]be written in your book of everything you do brothers and sisters
[18:32]and that's why that's why the study says 35,000 conscious decisions every
[18:41]day brothers and sisters it is all written and on the day
[18:43]of judgment we may be overwhelmed when Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala shows
[18:50]us all of that remember we said 16,000 that turns to 2500
[18:54]volumes that's just your words your actions is probably 5,000 volumes 10,000
[19:00]volumes and on the day of judgment brothers and sisters this is
[19:07]this will be one of the worst moments for us when Allah
[19:10]shows us that book the Quran says there are Traditions that state
[19:21]when your book ofal is complete there are Traditions that state this
[19:25]happens in the grave an angel will take that book and he
[19:31]will place it around your neck like a necklace the Hadith says
[19:34]you will feel as if the mountains the mountains have burdened you
[19:40]and you will carry it with you everywhere you go until Allah
[19:43]asks you about your deeds and holds you accountable the Quran says
[19:48]every human being here means their book their book of in their
[19:57]neck and on the day of judgment we will present a book
[20:07]to them you will find your book of opened Allah will tell
[20:13]you read read your book see what you did what you said
[20:17]you know what you did so you go you scroll through those
[20:22]pages and many of the Deeds that you find you did you
[20:27]will realize you will remember and many of them you won't remember
[20:29]we forget but Allah subhana wa tala doesn't forget those angels have
[20:32]recorded every single thing so this is the second thing brothers and
[20:39]sisters that they record everything we do is recorded everything we everything
[20:44]we say is recorded number three there's a third category of of
[20:48]things that they write what's what else remains if we say they
[20:51]record everything you do and everything you say what else is there
[20:59]for them to record they will even record some things that you
[21:03]did not do but you should have done at Salah time Allah
[21:11]calls you for Salah you ignore the Adan you're busy you're at
[21:18]work Sal you're sleeping you're watching a game you're eating you delay
[21:23]and delay and delay until the Salah becomes the time of the
[21:27]Salah expires now you you didn't technically do anything here you failed
[21:33]in doing something that angel on the left will right this person
[21:39]did not pray so there's a list of things that I didn't
[21:42]do and I should have done in addition to what I did
[21:46]what I didn't do but I was requested to do by Allah
[21:47]subhanahu wa ta'ala this person did not pray today it will all
[21:53]be written by Allah subhana tala by these two angels one of
[21:56]theat one of the obligations of Muslims is to enjoy the good
[22:05]and forbid the evil when I see someone committing evil brothers and
[22:10]sisters and I stay silent and I can speak up I can
[22:16]forbid the evil the angels will write this someone performed in front
[22:21]of me I was in a s was performed and I laughed
[22:27]with everybody else I did not forbid that evil that will be
[22:30]written or said I stayed silent I didn't do anything even if
[22:34]I stay silent Allah subhana wa tala will write that because I
[22:39]should have told that person look don't backbite don't make fun of
[22:42]other people this is Haram and the least thing brothers and sisters
[22:45]the least thing that we can do when someone performs and we'll
[22:51]talk about the tomorrow night I believe or the night after inshallah
[22:55]we'll speak about the righteous sahas how to have an Islamic sah
[22:57]what we can do what we can we talk more about this
[23:00]inshallah the least thing is don't laugh if someone is making fun
[23:03]of someone else frown in their face this is the the weakest
[23:09]of IM and this is a way in which you can protest
[23:12]the person that is committing that Haram so anytime that I fail
[23:18]in forbidding the evil it will be written I fail in doing
[23:21]a waj it will be written in that book so these are
[23:25]three examples of things that will be written in the book of
[23:28]my on the day of Jud now the question is what about
[23:33]our intentions your thoughts right now there's so many thoughts that are
[23:42]going through my mind nobody knows my thoughts Allah subhah wa ta'ala
[23:46]knows my thoughts do the two angels can they read our thoughts
[23:52]do they write our thoughts sometimes we will be thinking of good
[23:56]things sometimes we will be thinking of bad things so if I
[23:59]think of something bad something that is sinful will that be written
[24:02]when I think of something good will that be written my thoughts
[24:09]and my intentions there's a Hadith that Z one of the narrators
[24:14]narrates from IM or one of these two imams the IM says
[24:20]in [Music] theith or the angel has not been given the power
[24:31]from Allah to read your mind so if you are thinking of
[24:36]something then that angel doesn't know what you're thinking about so as
[24:45]long as he doesn't hear it as long as he doesn't see
[24:47]you doing something it's just a thought an intention he doesn't know
[24:51]about it he's not going to write about it the question is
[24:56]but wait a minute don't we have certain recommended acts that you
[25:03]can do in your mind and there are certain recommended acts that
[25:07]you can do without speaking without moving like what remembrance of Allah
[25:15]subhah Waal remembrance of Allah is a recommended brothers and sisters to
[25:20]do verbally to do it loudly and you say Subhan Allah alhamdulillah
[25:26]right but it is also recommended to remember Allah silently Allah says
[25:31]this in the Holy Quran he says and remember Allah subhah wa
[25:42]taala silently in your heart in your mind and also verbally say
[25:48]it loudly or you know move your tongue and say it read
[25:50]it so what if I remember Allah subhah wa ta'ala in my
[25:56]heart right now in my heart I'm saying Subhan Allah alhamd I
[26:00]just have a feeling of gratitude towards Allah subhana wa tala and
[26:05]I say Allah thank you for all your I say it in
[26:06]my mind the angel cannot hear this so he's not going to
[26:12]write that for me says thus when you remember Allah in your
[26:21]the angels will not write this who will write this for you
[26:27]Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala you see Allah has placed these angels and
[26:32]they do not record everything they don't even know everything we said
[26:38]three things your words your actions and your failure to do theat
[26:42]but your intentions or let's say your thoughts this they don't have
[26:49]any access to that and thus the IM says only Allah knows
[26:52]the of any type of that you have in your NS that
[26:59]you don't verbally say and Allah Asel himself is the one that
[27:01]will reward you for it so it's not even going to be
[27:05]found in your book of because the Angels don't know about it
[27:07]Allah subhah wa ta'ala knows about it and he will reward you
[27:12]this is one example another example we have multiple Traditions from the
[27:17]telling us that when a human being this is one of the
[27:24]blessings and the mercies and the gifts of Allah to us when
[27:26]we make a good intention a that is good I intend while
[27:31]I'm sitting after the lecture finishes inshah I'm going to go to
[27:34]the mjid I'll pray two I'll read a page or two pages
[27:38]of the Quran you make a good intention numerous traditions of from
[27:45]from the IMs of they will tell us that you get rewarded
[27:50]just for making a good intention and not just you'll get rewarded
[27:54]the angels will write your good intention and this is the brothers
[28:00]and sisters listen to this even if you end up not doing
[28:02]it so I make an intention after this lecture I'll go and
[28:07]pray two ra when the lecture finishes H you know what I
[28:11]don't feel like it I'm tired you go home the angels will
[28:13]write in your book of that you went and you prayed the
[28:16]two the angels will write they won't write that you intended they
[28:22]will write that you actually did it and if you do it
[28:27]Allah will multiply it by 10 Allah subhah wa tala if I
[28:32]actually go and do it Allah will now write that I prayed
[28:35]not two 20 and Allah says in the Holy Quran when you
[28:43]do a good deed Allah multiply by 10 but if you intend
[28:50]on doing a good deed Allah gives you the Ed of that
[28:52]good deed anyway just for making the intention now the question is
[28:57]if our two angels if they cannot read our minds then how
[29:03]are they able to write the good intentions that we make it's
[29:08]intention is just a thought right it's just something in your head
[29:11]it's a decision in your head but you didn't do anything you
[29:15]didn't even act upon it they will write while he was sitting
[29:18]listening to the lecture while he was fasting whatever he was doing
[29:23]he made such and such intention to do good right they were
[29:26]right he did that good Allah subhana wa tala will give you
[29:30]the Tha they will write as if you did it how do
[29:32]they know that there's aith from IM the seventh Imam was asked
[29:40]one day how do the two angels know that we're going to
[29:45]commit a good deed the Imam says yes they cannot read your
[29:49]mind but when you intend on doing a good deed Subhan Allah
[29:54]this is the Hadith of Al IM Al and this is part
[29:59]of the world of the Unseen that we spoke about when you
[30:03]intend on doing a good deed the Imam says your NFS your
[30:11]R will release a good smell a good smell that we cannot
[30:18]smell the angels of Allah subhana wa tala will will be able
[30:21]to smell so how does the angel know when you intended on
[30:27]doing good he can detect with his nose that you made a
[30:31]ni that was good and likewise the Imam says if you intend
[30:36]on doing bad after this lecture I'm going to do this and
[30:40]this the Imam says that you will release a foul smell and
[30:46]that's how these two angels know of your intentions when it comes
[30:52]to good and bad so they can't read your mind but it's
[30:55]like you expose yourself because when you think of good you release
[30:58]good when you think of bad you release bad now the beauty
[31:04]of the system of Allah subhana wa ta'ala is that when you
[31:07]intend on doing good it counts for you but when you intend
[31:12]on doing bad it doesn't count against you theith of IM says
[31:16]when the angel the angel on the right side when he senses
[31:23]that good smell he tells the other Angel back off this is
[31:26]my territory now and he starts writing your good de deed and
[31:30]he waits until you do it when you do it multiplied by
[31:32]10 but the IM says but when you when the other Angel
[31:39]senses the foul smell now he tells the angel on the right
[31:41]now it's my turn and he can't write by the way he
[31:45]can't write he waits he knows that you've made the bad intention
[31:48]he waits if you actually do it this is when he writes
[31:53]it but if you don't nothing is written so you see how
[31:56]the system of Allah subhana T is biased it's biased for you
[32:00]why does Allah write your good intentions but not bad intentions is
[32:04]that fair it's not fair but it's in your own interest because
[32:08]Allah is merciful Allah wants this system this life to be easier
[32:15]brothers and sisters don't think that it's hard to please Allah subhana
[32:19]tala it is not we read in Du Allah is so easily
[32:26]pleased it is much easier to please Allah than any human being
[32:30]just make a good intention Allah rewards you for it even if
[32:35]you did nothing but if you have a bad intention Allah says
[32:37]as long as you don't act upon it I'm not going to
[32:42]do anything I'm not going to look at it I will ignore
[32:45]it and what's even better brothers and sisters there's a Hadith from
[32:49]where the Prophet says in the Hadith these two angels are are
[33:01]not equal the one on the right has more Authority and power
[33:03]than the one on the left why because the prophet says when
[33:10]you intend on doing something good he writes when you do that
[33:13]is what is good he writes it right away he doesn't even
[33:19]ask the one on the left but when you intend on so
[33:21]doing something bad we said it's not written even when you write
[33:26]it even when you do that bad thing the Haram the the
[33:28]prophet says the one on the left takes out his pen he
[33:33]wants to write it the one on the right tells him wait
[33:36]do not write it the one on the left says but he
[33:38]did it he did the Haram it wasn't just a thought the
[33:41]one on the right the prophet says tells the left I know
[33:45]but give him seven hours this is the famous Hadith of the
[33:47]seven hours this is the command of the one on the right
[33:51]and the one on the left has to listen the prophet says
[33:53]he says give him seven give him or her seven hours why
[33:58]seven hours because he may repent and if he repents your angel
[34:04]on the right tells the one on the left you're not allowed
[34:06]to write it it's not that he's going to write it and
[34:10]then erase it he cannot even write it and during those seven
[34:15]hours the Hadith says the one on your right is just praying
[34:18]please repent please repent please repent because the one on your right
[34:23]doesn't want you to commit har please maybe some good ideas some
[34:29]good thoughts he'll try to put in your mind you there's 6
[34:31]hours left 5 hours left 3 hours left 1 hour left please
[34:36]don't let that guy there's a competition between them the right and
[34:40]the left don't let the one on the left write it the
[34:46]seven hours is dwindling it's going to finish he's more concerned about
[34:48]me than I am and I'm completely in a different world so
[34:52]the Hadith says if you repent he's so happy he says you
[34:59]have no right to write it anymore back off and that one
[35:05]on the left can't do anything but if the seven hours pass
[35:08]and I do not repent to Allah subhah wa taala say feel
[35:13]regret and say Allah forgive me the one on the right is
[35:16]devastated and he says I tried my best to protect you I
[35:22]tried my best to prevent my partner from writing but you were
[35:26]sleeping you were another world you were completely negligent of Allah subhana
[35:32]T and of your own and then he says I can't do
[35:39]anything now you have no shame no ha in front of Allah
[35:40]now but it has to be written now remember even if it
[35:45]is written it doesn't mean you can't erase it you could still
[35:48]do Toba later but Toba brothers and sisters asking Allah for forgiveness
[35:53]when the sin is still fresh is much greater than when you
[36:01]do Toba later on and one reason behind that you know why
[36:04]is because usually why 7 hours because if you you usually if
[36:10]you don't repent that day you're going to forget about it usually
[36:14]if you want to do something you'll say I'll do it later
[36:16]on after a couple of hours but you're not going to do
[36:21]it you're going to completely forget about it so Allah wants to
[36:24]encourage you you did a sin it's okay repent but repent now
[36:27]because first first of all you're going to forget there's going to
[36:30]be too many things in your life that will distract you and
[36:32]we never know when we're going to die so that's why Allah
[36:36]wants to encourage us I'll give you 7h hour grace period don't
[36:39]sin the angel on the left has no right to write no
[36:44]right or I ght to write w r i t right it's
[36:48]like a tongue twister he has absolutely no hack no right to
[36:50]write anything against you to record anything against you Allah wants to
[36:54]encourage you Allah subhana wa ta'ala has made the system so easy
[36:57]brothers and sisters Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala doesn't want anyone to be
[37:01]punished on the day of judgment and that's why the system is
[37:07]tipped in our favor yes it's a it's it's a system that
[37:09]isn't equal but it's an it's not equal in our favor so
[37:14]we shouldn't be complaining we should be thanking Allah subhanahu wa taala
[37:19]and finally brothers and sisters the Traditions tell us that these human
[37:25]being these two angels are two companions they will accompany us our
[37:29]entire lives until it is time for us to depart this world
[37:34]when it is time to depart this world and move on to
[37:40]the next life the imams of ah bate state that if the
[37:43]person who's dying was a righteous person they will thank that person
[37:48]they will tell him Habibi thank you so much because you allowed
[37:54]us to write so many good things and you didn't preoccupy us
[37:57]too much with writing Haram because they don't like writing the one
[38:00]on the left doesn't like writing sins but he is commanded by
[38:05]Allah thank you so much for allowing us to write all these
[38:08]Good Deeds thank you for always keeping us in a good environment
[38:14]because these two angels they're stuck to you wherever you go they
[38:17]have to go you go to the Masjid they come to the
[38:21]Masjid they love being at the Masjid so they will tell you
[38:23]we will make sure to defend you any way that we can
[38:29]when Allah holds you accountable we will be the first two that
[38:31]will speak and say yaah Allah we witnessed him committing this good
[38:35]deed we witnessed him praying doing Salah Dua paying charity helping other
[38:40]people we will be an ally to you but the IM says
[38:45]but if the person was a wicked person constantly committing sins those
[38:50]two angels will tell you [Music] ald Allah the worst thing he
[38:58]did to us was to force us to be with you your
[39:02]life cuz all you did was Haram we just had to listen
[39:03]to music the whole day we had to listen to the whole
[39:07]day we had to come with you to all these Haram places
[39:10]that you went they will tell you may Allah not give you
[39:15]anything that is good and they will tell you that on the
[39:21]day of judgment we will be your foes we will witness against
[39:24]you don't think you can deny all those bad Deeds that you
[39:29]did because you gave us such a hard time in the D
[39:30]and we're going to give you a hard time on the day
[39:34]of judgment so these two angels say look Let's Make a Deal
[39:39]from now Habibi you treat me good now you don't do bad
[39:42]Deeds don't take me to bad places I will take care of
[39:46]you on the day of judgment but if you don't you neglect
[39:48]me you have no shame in front of Allah you have no
[39:52]shame in front of us and we have to follow you everywhere
[39:56]now we will teach you a lesson on the day of judgment
[39:57]brother and sisters from now on make a deal with them tell
[40:01]them my dear Angels on the right and especially the one on
[40:09]the left I will try my best to not get in trouble
[40:11]I will try my best to not not make you hear or
[40:16]see Haram and anytime there is Haram I will be the first
[40:20]one to forbid that Haram and in that way brothers and sisters
[40:23]they will be your allies they will help you they will support
[40:26]you Allah subhanahu wa taala will force them to do that so
[40:32]this is something that we have to be always careful of and
[40:35]I'll end with this beautiful story of 5 minutes and we'll end
[40:39]brothers and sisters a beautiful story that is narrated by Abu d
[40:45]one of his companions he says that I was in the Masjid
[40:50]of one day some of the companions started to mention the they
[40:53]were the the most of them second generation of the sahab they
[40:57]started to mention the great Companions of and which one was the
[41:04]greatest of the Companions and each one he mentioned a name and
[41:07]then they mentioned a virtue of that companion he says when it
[41:14]was my turn Abu D he said let me tell you who
[41:18]I think was the best companion he was probably the poorest companion
[41:22]didn't own anything from the dun but he was the most God-fearing
[41:26]he was the most righteous of them they said who Abu says
[41:32]he says everyone in the Masid they turned their face away from
[41:38]me they frowned at me yeah the name of Imam Ali brothers
[41:41]and sisters was too heavy on the hearts of some people they
[41:47]could not even hear the name of Ali and this is the
[41:52]man that saved Islam that protected Islam if it wasn't for him
[41:54]there would be no Islam but Subhan Allah look look at what
[41:57]happened after IM Ali died and how the people betrayed him such
[42:03]that when you mention IM Ali in a good way people are
[42:05]frowning at you what are you talking about they don't they don't
[42:10]even want to hear the name of Ali Abu D says but
[42:13]wait give me a chance let me tell you what I saw
[42:14]this isn't a Hadith I heard no this is what I saw
[42:18]he says in the city of Medina many years ago one night
[42:22]he says I was outside Medina and a of farms he says
[42:29]I was doing something there all of the sudden I hear some
[42:31]movement he says I hear some movement and I go and I
[42:38]look I see it's he's all by himself in the farm area
[42:42]so I start following him what is Ali doing here he says
[42:46]until he goes in an area the Imam couldn't see Abu D
[42:50]he made sure he's all alone he says all of the sudden
[42:53]the Imam began to read beautiful M all alone outside why did
[42:57]the Imam do that because the Imam wanted to do it by
[43:02]himself he wanted private time between him and Allah subhana wa ta'ala
[43:05]so that no one so it's pure between him and Allah no
[43:09]saysi didn't sense that I was there but all of the sudden
[43:15]I started to hear IM Ali reading the most beautiful words of
[43:18]Maat I'll just read you two three lines of these Maat of
[43:22]Amir brothers and sisters so that they can soften our hearts a
[43:26]little as we Embrace and welcome the final tomorrow brothers and sisters
[43:32]hopefully these words of IM aliam can open our hearts to Allah
[43:36]subhanahu wa taala so we can collect the Rah of Allah subhanahu
[43:42]wa taala he says I heard IM Ali says he says Ya
[44:15]Allah maybe I have spent my entire life sinning and IM Ali
[44:20]was sinless but this is how he used to speak to Allah
[44:22]because no matter how much he would do for Allah he still
[44:27]felt as if he had not done enough so IM Ali tells
[44:29]Allah yaah Allah maybe my entire life I have spent sinning negligent
[44:34]far away from you maybe this what Imam says when you look
[44:38]at my book of you will see many sins but no Ya
[44:41]Allah I will always be hopeful in your mercy I will never
[44:46]give up in asking for you to forgive me AB says the
[44:53]most beautiful words of from IM Ali and he mentions the book
[44:58]of in so many instances it's a longer but I'll just mention
[45:01]these passages that have to do with the book of he says
[45:05]the IM then continued so beautifully he did ma prayed and continued
[45:09]in his Maat he said then he said this he says yeah
[45:29]Allah I'm in a dilemma why why is IM Ali in a
[45:33]dilemma he says because from one side I think about your mercy
[45:35]and all of a sudden my sins I belittle them Allah but
[45:39]he says at the same time I remember that Allah subhanahu wa
[45:43]taala is just and he will hold me accountable for every deed
[45:48]and everything is written in a book and I cannot Escape that
[45:52]accountability so he says when I realize that all of the sudden
[45:55]my sin begin to burden me and I begin to feel as
[46:00]if I'm desperate I'm losing I don't know what to do so
[46:03]I'm in this dilemma when I think of the of Allah I
[46:05]belittle my sin but when I think of Allah subhana wa tala's
[46:08]accountability all of a sudden no I see that my sin is
[46:13]huge because I will be asked by Allah subhanahu wa taala and
[46:16]then look at the Hadith look at the the speech theat of
[46:21]this is for us brothers and sisters not for IM Ali he
[46:25]says the IM then he says yaah Allah woe unto me when
[46:49]that book ofal is given to me on the day of judgment
[46:53]and I start flipping the pages and I see so many sins
[46:56]that I have done that I have forgotten but Allah subhanahu wa
[47:00]ta'ala has forgotten what do I Do Ya Allah I deny them
[47:04]but there are so many witnesses that will testify against me Ya
[47:08]Allah please have mercy upon us on that day our books contain
[47:11]so much that we don't want you to see please forgive us
[47:16]so the IM is saying on that day of judgment what am
[47:20]I going to do with that book and Allah subhana wa tala
[47:22]gives us a glimpse of this on the day of judgment he
[47:25]says the book is distributed to every human being when the evildoers
[47:34]will be told by Allah go and read your book they're afraid
[47:37]their hearts are trembling because they see five 10,000 volumes everything they
[47:44]didn't said they start flipping the pages and they say oh my
[47:56]God what type of book is this every small every large deed
[48:01]to the most small to the smallest of things that I said
[48:05]and did it's all recorded recorded here what do we do Ya
[48:08]Allah Allah subhah wa tala wrote everything so IM Ali says Ya
[48:14]Allah please help me on that stage so that I am not
[48:16]amongst those people that I am constantly surprised by my I did
[48:22]I forgot I did this I forgot I did that problem is
[48:24]when we forget to repent to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala the Imam
[48:27]continued it's a very beautiful Maat brothers and sisters keep this Maat
[48:35]in your mind tomorrow night as we inshallah welcome Saturday night it
[48:39]is the night of repentance I'll speak about tomorrow night and what
[48:43]we can do to receive the r of Allah subhah wa ta'ala
[48:47]and the Forgiveness of Allah subhah wa tala raise your hands brothers
[48:51]and sisters Ya Allah Allah Allah Allah Allah Allah Allah Allah let
