Venue Masjid Taqwa Summary Main Topic
This lecture emphasizes the vital importance of steadfastness in zikrullah (remembrance of Allah), explaining how continuous remembrance purifies the spiritual heart despite initial distractions or lack of concentration. The speaker also warns against the subtle traps of Shaytan, the spiritual dangers of riba (interest) and worldly greed (dunya ), and highlights the necessity of sincere repentance (tawbah ) and obedience to Allah Ta'ala.
Key Lessons
Persistence in Zikrullah: Abandoning zikrullah due to a lack of concentration is worse than making zikr without full focus. Persistence gradually transforms unmindful remembrance (zikr-e-ghafli ) into alert remembrance (zikr-e-baidari ) and ultimately divine presence (zikr-e-huzuri ).Understanding Waswasa (Spiritual Distractions): Evil or offensive thoughts during Salah or zikr are whispers from Shaytan. Distress over these thoughts is a sign of iman (faith). The best response is to ignore them and seek refuge in Allah Ta'ala.Three Divine Honors for the Zakir: Allah Ta'ala honors one who remembers Him by enabling their tongue to pronounce His Mubarak name, causing good people to remember them, and mentioning them in the exalted assembly of the angels (Malaika ).The Dangers of Riba and Dunya: Engaging in interest-bearing transactions or seeking luxury beyond one's means ruins the acceptance of dua and spiritual progress. True success lies in complying with Shariah rather than conforming to non-Muslim trends.Value of Sincere Supplication: The language of tears and sincere humility in dua is universal and deeply beloved to Allah Ta'ala.

0:14 Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. 0:19 Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. 0:26 Do not abandon zikrullah on account of lack of concentration. 0:35 Abandoning zikr is worse than lack of concentration while making zikr. 0:44 Many a time, a salik, he feels that now I'm not concentrating, so he's like, you know. 0:57 So we must remember that if we're going to stop making zikr because we're not concentrating, then how are we ever going to concentrate? 1:09 How are we ever going to concentrate? 1:11 Somebody 1:12 He's learning how to drive. 1:15 Now he can't get his clutch and accelerator mix right. 1:21 So he keeps switching off. 1:25 On the incline he's rolling. 1:27 All these mistakes he's making. 1:29 So if he says that because I'm not driving properly I rather just don't drive. 1:37 So would he ever learn how to drive? 1:38 He'll never learn how to drive. 1:41 But if he perseveres, he carries on, slowly, slowly, he will improve, improve, until he learns how to drive. 1:52 So like that, it is said that when it comes to our dini things, we give up very quickly. 2:01 Any dunyavi thing, we will master it. 2:03 We will persevere and we will master it. 2:07 When it comes to our dini things, 2:11 Little bit of challenge. 2:14 Little bit of test. 2:15 Little bit of hurdle. 2:18 And we give it up. 2:24 So to leave out dhikrullah is worse than making dhikr without concentration. 2:31 Rather continue with the dhikr. 2:34 It is not far-fetched to say that Allah Ta'ala 2:39 May develop your dhikr haflat. 2:43 That means your dhikr which is devoid of concentration. 2:49 Allah Ta'ala can develop this into dhikr bedari. 2:56 That now the person is making dhikrullah and he is alert. 3:00 He is not losing concentration. 3:07 And thereafter Allah Ta'ala can develop your zikr-e-baidari to zikr-e-hudhuri. 3:16 The person now when he is making zikrullah, he actually feels so close to Allah Ta'ala. 3:25 Like he is in the presence of Allah Ta'ala. 3:28 Obviously we are in the presence of Allah Ta'ala all the time. 3:33 Just that, 3:36 Our marifat is low. 3:39 Our marifat is low. 3:41 Our qurb is low. 3:42 Allah Ta'ala is closer to us than our Jagjurabin. 3:45 At any given time. 3:48 Right? 3:49 But we can't see it. 3:52 We can't perceive it. 3:54 Slowly, slowly, as Allah Ta'ala blesses us with more and more marifat, more and more qurba ilahi, then we begin to perceive this 4:08 Reminds me. 4:10 Some time back many many years ago. 4:12 Hazrat Rahmatullahi Ali was still alive. 4:18 And Hazrat had gone for Umrah. 4:20 And some people had accompanied him also for Umrah. 4:26 So on the return. 4:27 So one person mentioned to me. 4:30 He said no. 4:31 You know now Hazrat has gone very high. 4:35 Now hazard is gone. 4:36 It's gone very high. 4:38 This trip was something else. 4:41 Hazard. 4:42 It's Ruhaniyat. 4:43 It's gone very high. 4:46 So I told him. 4:47 I said see. 4:50 Hazard was very high. 4:54 Just that you couldn't see it. 4:57 You couldn't see it. 4:59 Now this trip you spent your time little bit properly. 5:02 So you saw little bit. 5:04 So now you're saying hazard has gone very high. 5:07 Hazard was very high. 5:09 Now you just saw a little bit more. 5:14 So like that. 5:17 Well not like that. 5:18 I mean you can't compare the two. 5:19 But I'm just giving an example. 5:21 Just giving an example. 5:24 Somebody has got one high powered motor car. 5:29 Very high powered motor car. 5:34 The car can go up to 300 kilometers per hour. 5:40 That too is governed at 300 kilometers per hour. 5:44 So now he is driving in the residential area. 5:49 He is driving in the residential area. 5:50 60 kilometers. 5:52 40 kilometers. 5:55 Then he is driving in town. 5:58 Now one day. 6:00 He gets the opportunity to drive to Cape Town. 6:02 No more driving in town. 6:04 He's driving to Cape Town. 6:07 Now he takes the car. 6:09 He really pushes it to its limits. 6:12 So when he comes back, he says, you know, now this car is going fast. 6:17 He says, you know, Baba, the car could always go fast. 6:23 Now you only drove it fast now. 6:26 The car could always go fast. 6:30 So Allah Rabbul Izzat, His sifat, His qualities, Allah Ta'ala's majesty, that was always there. 6:40 It was always there. 6:41 It is there. 6:42 It will always be there. 6:44 Right? 6:46 But when Allah Ta'ala blesses us with His ma'rifat, with qurba ilahi, a person's spiritual sinuses now are unblocked. 6:59 Now the person starts to perceive the closeness of Allah Ta'ala. 7:04 So this then becomes Dhikr-e-Huzuri. 7:08 And from this Dhikr to that most lofty state of Dhikr in which everything besides Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala is annihilated. 7:21 Person then starts making Dhikr such a Dhikr 7:26 That when he makes the zikrullah, then the reality of la ilaha illallah is there. 7:33 Everything else is annihilated. 7:36 Annihilates everything. 7:38 And he's only Allah. 7:40 Allah. 7:41 That's all. 7:43 Right? 7:44 So nothing is difficult for Allah Ta'ala. 7:47 We can never do anything on our own. 7:50 We can never do anything on our own. 7:53 So why worry about 7:56 I am not able to concentrate. 7:57 I am not able to do this. 7:59 We could never do anything. 8:02 And we will never be able to do anything. 8:05 Only Allah Ta'ala can give us the tawfiq. 8:10 Allah Ta'ala can assist us. 8:13 Then something will happen. 8:14 Bi'idhnillah. 8:16 With the permission of Allah. 8:17 So we must just go on knocking. 8:22 That couplet that Hazrat Rahmatullahi Ali used to read. 8:27 Khole ho ya na khole dar. 8:30 Khole ho ya na khole dar. 8:33 Uspe ho kyu teri nazar. 8:37 Tu to apna kaam kar. 8:39 Yani par paraye ja. 8:43 Whether the door opens, whether the door don't open. 8:47 What you worried about that for? 8:50 You just carry on doing your thing. 8:54 Just keep flapping your wings. 8:56 Talking about a bird in the cage. 8:58 A bird in the cage. 9:01 Whether the master opens the door of the cage or not. 9:05 Why are you worried about that? 9:07 You just carry on doing your thing. 9:09 You keep flapping your wings. 9:11 For as long as you flap your wings, you will have the attention of the master. 9:16 As long as you carry on flapping your wings, you carry on chirping and all that, you will have the attention of the Master. 9:23 Now whether the Master one day decides to open a cage and carry you on his shoulder, whether he decides to open a cage and carry you on his finger, whether he decides to open a cage and put you on a perch, that is all the Master's choice. 9:38 But you do your work. 9:39 You continue to flap your wings, you continue to chirp, 9:43 And you will have the attention of the master. 9:46 The master will not discard you. 9:49 But if the bird starts sitting like one summum bukmun umyun in one corner of that cage, the master will just say, what is this? 9:58 A booth? 9:59 There is a bird. 10:00 What we bought now? 10:02 This one, we'd rather take it back. 10:03 Leave it in the pet shop. 10:06 What we got this thing here for? 10:09 When do the owners of a pet... 10:13 They are so happy with the pets. 10:16 Some people they have this African grey parrots and all that. 10:20 Anybody come. 10:21 Sanam kar. 10:22 Sanam kar. 10:23 Sometimes the bird listens more than their own child also. 10:26 Sanam kar. 10:27 Sanam kar. 10:28 Then the bird too will make sanam. 10:30 Now they get very happy. 10:31 See he learns. 10:32 He knows Karima also. 10:36 So when the bird does all that. 10:40 Then the master is very very happy. 10:43 Now we learn the hadith of Nabi Karim sallallahu alayhi wasallam that whenever a people sit in a gathering where the remembrance of Allah Ta'ala is taking place, then Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala remembers them in a much nobler gathering, the gathering of the Malaika. 11:06 Now try and picture the situation. 11:08 Try and picture it. 11:09 Keep that example in mind. 11:10 You got on African Grey. 11:13 Some visitors of yours, some friends came home. 11:17 Now you're telling that parrot. 11:20 Salaam kar. 11:21 Now the parrot made salaam. 11:23 Now you tell the parrot, read Karima. 11:25 Now the parrot read Karima. 11:26 How happy you feel. 11:29 How happy you feel. 11:31 Now you're boasting. 11:33 Not with pride, but you're happy. 11:35 Now you're telling your guests. 11:38 Yeah, he knows this. 11:39 He knows that also. 11:40 He knows that. 11:40 See how he's reading this. 11:41 See how he's reading that. 11:43 Now picture the situation. 11:44 We are bandas of Allah Ta'ala in the cage of the dunya. 11:49 We are bandas of Allah Ta'ala in the cage of the dunya. 11:54 Right? 11:54 And Allah Ta'ala has given us instruction. 11:57 يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ ذِكْرًا كَثِيرًا وَصَبِّحُوهُ بُكْرَةً وَأَصِيلًا وَالذَّاكِرِينَ اللَّهَ كَثِيرًا وَالذَّاكِرَاتِ 12:09 This is what Allah Ta'ala wants of us. 12:10 وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونَ أَقِيمُوا الصَّلَاةُ آتُوا الزَّكَاةُ These are all the instructions. 12:20 كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الصِّيَامُ Right? 12:23 All these are the instructions. 12:25 Now, the Banda of Allah Ta'ala in this cage of the dunya. 12:30 He is doing all of this. 12:31 He can't see Allah Ta'ala. 12:33 He can't see Jannat. 12:35 He can't see Jahannam. 12:37 He never saw Nabi Akarim sallallahu alayhi wasallam while he is awake. 12:43 Right? 12:45 But the teachings of Nabi Akarim sallallahu alayhi wasallam have come to him. 12:50 And he knows that Nabi sallallahu alayhi wasallam is the most beloved of Allah Ta'ala. 12:54 And Nabi sallallahu alayhi wasallam is his Nabi, is his Prophet. 12:59 Right? 13:00 So now, exactly the training that Nabi sallallahu alayhi wasallam gave, he is 13:06 Carrying out with that training the ahkaam of Allah Ta'ala. 13:10 Right? 13:11 Now Allah Ta'ala is telling the malaika. 13:15 See my Ahmad. 13:17 See my Muhammad. 13:19 See my Ismail. 13:20 See how he is making satsang. 13:22 See. 13:24 See how he is reading kalima. 13:25 See how he is making tilawat. 13:30 Baha bihim. 13:32 Baha. 13:33 Allah Ta'ala boos. 13:36 In front of the Malaika. 13:39 Look at this Banda of mine. 13:41 See this Banda of mine. 13:42 Sitting for Itikaaf. 13:43 See that Banda of mine. 13:44 He's gone out in the path of Allah Ta'ala. 13:46 Look at this Banda of mine. 13:48 He's making dua. 13:49 Look at that Banda of mine. 13:50 He's studying my deen. 13:54 All the different, different things. 13:57 Look at this Banda of mine. 13:58 He's spending in my path. 14:06 So Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will be pleased with our acts of obedience. 14:12 Now after that, see one person sent me one email. 14:18 He says that I don't know what's happening to me. 14:22 Just not enjoying my dua. 14:25 It's not getting going with the dua. 14:30 The feelings are not there. 14:32 So I 14:35 Responded to him. 14:36 I said since when the dua is about your feelings. 14:41 Dua is not about your feelings. 14:44 You are crying to Allah Ta'ala. 14:46 So you just go on crying. 14:49 Just carry on crying. 14:51 You feel now. 14:52 The words are not flowing. 14:53 No problem. 14:55 Just keep your hands up and just take Allah's name. 14:58 Just keep your hands up. 15:00 Normally you say I am making dua for 10 minutes. 15:03 15 minutes. 15:03 Whatever it is. 15:05 Just keep your hands up and take Allah's name. 15:09 Make your face like a crying face because Allah wants to see that. 15:14 Finish. 15:18 Allah Ta'ala understands every language and the one universal language is the language of crying. 15:29 Every other language we learnt here in the dunya 15:32 But one language Allah Ta'ala sent us with is a language of crying. 15:38 Every baby comes in the dunya, speaks one universal language. 15:42 It is a language of crying. 15:44 Whether that baby is hungry, the baby cries. 15:47 Whether the baby is in pain, the baby cries. 15:50 Whether that baby needs a nappy change, the baby will cry. 15:54 The stomach is paining, the baby will cry. 15:56 For everything, the baby will cry. 15:59 And the mother, the mother will try and figure out now, why is the baby crying? 16:05 So that language that Allah Ta'ala sent us within the dunya, we must talk to Allah Ta'ala with that language. 16:13 Cry to Allah. 16:15 Allah Ta'ala understands the language of those tears. 16:20 And if we can't shed the tears of the eye, shed the tears of the heart, that's the asal thing. 16:25 Make the face like a crying person and make dua to Allah. 16:30 Just sit with our hands raised in front of Allah Ta'ala. 16:34 Even we just got the thoughts in our heart also. 16:38 Allah Ta'ala can see what's in the heart also. 16:47 So we shouldn't we shouldn't become despondent if our concentration is lacking. 16:56 Last week, I think two emails I received. 17:02 One email, the person was saying that when he is reading namaz, then certain filthy thoughts are coming to his mind. 17:13 And he is really feeling down about this. 17:16 The other person said that in the namaz, when I am taking Allah Ta'ala's name, then a swearing word is coming to my mind. 17:27 Swearing word is coming to my mind. 17:32 So both of them, the same answer was given. 17:36 Alhamdulillah. 17:38 This is a great sign of your Iman. 17:41 This is a great sign of your Iman. 17:44 Because if you didn't have Iman, you won't worry. 17:49 The fact that this thing is troubling you. 17:52 How come these thoughts are coming? 17:53 How come this swearing word is 17:55 Is coming in my mind. 17:58 The fact that it is worrying the person, it shows the person got Iman. 18:07 If the person never have Iman, he won't worry about it. 18:12 Because he got Iman, he is worried, he is concerned about it. 18:17 So now, I said the only way to combat this thing is ignore it. 18:25 Ignore it. 18:25 Don't worry about it. 18:27 You're not getting no guna for this. 18:30 There is no sin for this. 18:32 So, don't worry about it. 18:34 There is no guna for it. 18:36 Don't worry about it. 18:39 Make shukr to Allah Ta'ala that you're feeling bad about it. 18:43 And just carry on with your namaz. 18:46 Ignore it. 18:46 Don't worry about it. 18:48 The more you're going to worry about it, the more you're going to worry about it, 18:54 The more Shaitan is getting happy. 18:57 He says, I got him. 18:59 So the example given is that you are walking down the road. 19:06 You are walking down the road and there is a dog that is behind the owner's fence. 19:13 And the yard is fenced up and the dog is behind the fence. 19:18 And the dog is barking. 19:21 This dog is barking at you. 19:23 And you need to walk past that house. 19:25 Now you get some small children. 19:27 Right? 19:29 You get some small children. 19:30 They get so frightened. 19:36 That they don't even go past the house. 19:41 Although the dog is locked up. 19:44 But because they are small, they are naadan, they don't understand. 19:48 They just get so frightened with the bark of the dog that now they are frightened to even walk past. 19:59 But all the person needs to do is don't look in the direction of the dog. 20:05 Look down and walk fast fast and pass that house. 20:11 Now once you pass that house and you have gone little bit down the road now is that barking going to affect you anymore? 20:18 It won't affect anymore. 20:20 So exactly like this. 20:22 Shaitan is just like a barking dog. 20:25 With no bite. 20:28 He's got no bite. 20:29 He just barks. 20:30 Waswasa. 20:31 Waswasa. 20:32 Waswasa. 20:33 Right? 20:33 But he's got no bite. 20:37 So he just keep moving. 20:40 What you worried about him for? 20:43 Hazrat Rahmatullah Ali used to say, 20:47 That if a person goes to a house and there is a vicious dog there. 20:52 And now he wants to go to the gate and the dog is barking at him. 20:58 So what he is going to do? 20:59 Stand there and bark back? 21:01 He will start having a barking contest with the dog? 21:04 We will definitely lose. 21:06 We can't win a barking contest with the dog. 21:09 Right? 21:09 But all he needs to do is just press the bell and get the attention of the owner of the dog. 21:15 Right? 21:16 So once he got the attention of the owner of the dog, right? 21:21 Now the owner of the dog will tell that dog, right? 21:24 Quiet. 21:25 Get in the back. 21:26 Lock the dog up. 21:28 And now you got a safe passage to enter the house. 21:32 So when Shaitaan, Shaitaan is like a barking dog. 21:36 We mustn't concern ourselves with him. 21:38 Right? 21:39 All we need to do is get the attention of Allah Ta'ala. 21:42 Because Allah Ta'ala created Shaitaan. 21:46 Allah Ta'ala is the owner of shaitan. 21:48 Allah Ta'ala created shaitan. 21:51 So you turn to Allah Ta'ala. 21:52 A'udhu billahi minash shaitanir rajim. 21:56 Allah Ta'ala will move that shaitan out of the way and you can continue on your path. 22:02 Shaitan never leave anybody. 22:04 Nabi Ibrahim a.s. was going to go and do what? 22:09 A qurbani, what? 22:10 A sacrifice. 22:11 Shaitan never leave him too. 22:14 But shaitan came first time 22:17 Huge. 22:17 Big. 22:18 You know. 22:20 Ibrahim alayhi salatu wasalam threw the pebbles. 22:25 Took Allah's name and he threw the pebbles. 22:28 Shaitan burst. 22:30 Like a balloon. 22:32 So big. 22:32 But like a balloon. 22:33 He's gone. 22:33 He just burst the balloon. 22:35 He's gone. 22:36 Finished. 22:37 Inna kayda al-shaitani kana daifa. 22:41 Second time when he stood up again. 22:43 Now he wasn't so big. 22:44 Third time he stood up again. 22:45 He wasn't so big. 22:47 It was even smaller. 22:49 And then after that, he couldn't stand up again. 22:54 But Ibrahim a.s. and Ismail a.s. they continued on the path. 22:59 They were going on a mission to fulfill Allah Ta'ala's hukam. 23:03 Now if Shaitan came away there on the path, now they never say, Shaitan is here now. 23:11 Now what are you going to do? 23:12 It's not our fault. 23:13 Now Shaitan came away here. 23:14 He blocked the road. 23:16 So now we rather turn and go back home. 23:18 Where are we going to go? 23:18 Past the shaitan? 23:21 No. 23:21 They focused on Allah Ta'ala. 23:23 Took Allah Ta'ala's name and threw the stone at shaitan. 23:28 Allah Ta'ala got rid of the shaitan. 23:31 So we also we are faced with many shayateen along the way to Allah Ta'ala. 23:36 Salik is faced with many shayateen. 23:39 And just now they will be released again. 23:43 They are locked up. 23:45 Just now they will be released again. 23:47 So they will come again to try and block the path. 23:51 So all the person needs to do is take Allah Ta'ala's name. 23:54 Seek protection in Allah Rabbul Izzat. 23:56 Right? 23:57 And Allah Ta'ala will move him out of the way. 23:59 And we can continue our path to Allah Rabbul Izzat. 24:04 Continue on our road. 24:10 Allah Ta'ala has honoured you in three ways. 24:13 A Zakir. 24:14 Allah Ta'ala has honoured a Zakir in three ways. 24:17 First, He made you His Zakir. 24:21 He made you that you are taking His name. 24:23 Right? 24:26 If it was not for His Fazal, never would it have been possible for you to involve your tongue and your heart in His Zikr. 24:36 When a person is taking the name of Allah Ta'ala, even if he is taking the name of Allah Ta'ala in a state of ghaflat also, he must remember that when he is taking Allah's name, Allah Ta'ala is remembering him because if Allah Ta'ala never remember him, he won't be able to take Allah's name. 24:53 If Allah Ta'ala never remember him, he won't be able to take Allah's name. 25:00 When we cannot bat an eyelid without the permission of Allah, where are we going to be able to bring the weighty, majestic name of Allah Ta'ala on our tongue without the permission of Allah? 25:14 By one person, just a human being, can he take your daughter's name in front of you in a bad way? 25:29 Your daughter's name. 25:31 Your wife's name. 25:32 Can he start talking about your daughter and your wife in front of you while you are there? 25:39 You will never allow it. 25:41 You will never allow it. 25:43 Some strange person, a stranger talking about your wife, talking about your daughter. 25:48 You will never allow it. 25:49 Right? 25:50 But somebody who is close to you, your mother, she is talking about 25:58 Some good thing about your wife, your daughter, that you will be very happy to hear. 26:04 You'll want your mother to repeat it also. 26:06 Your child is talking about his mother, that will make you very happy. 26:13 Some close person, person that you got taluk with, muhabbat for, that person talks about the close people, that will make you happy. 26:22 But somebody else starts talking, you won't allow it. 26:27 When that is a situation with a human being, then you think Allah Ta'ala just allow anyone and everyone to take His Mubarak name? 26:36 A person can just take Allah Ta'ala's name just like that? 26:40 No. 26:42 Allah Ta'ala permits a person to take His name. 26:45 So when a person is making zikr, this is the first bounty of Allah Ta'ala, the first ni'mat of Allah Ta'ala, that Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala out of His fazal has made this thing possible. 26:57 That with our filthy tongues, Allah Ta'ala is still allowing us to take His Mubarak name. 27:04 With our tongue, how much ghibat we have made, how much swearing words we have spoken, lies we have spoken, deception we have made, so many things we have done with this tongue of ours. 27:19 But Allah Ta'ala, out of His fazal, karam, ihsan, still allows us to take His Mubarak name. 27:28 Somebody want to enter our house. 27:31 Put daga shoes. 27:33 Just clean your shoes. 27:35 Although the sand, the daga is park. 27:39 There is a mat. 27:41 Take out your shoes by the door. 27:44 Don't come inside with the muddy shoes. 27:48 By right, what would we have done with our tongue? 27:52 If Allah Ta'ala had to tell us, in order for you to take my name, you must first scrape off the outer layer of your tongue. 27:59 All the filth you have brought onto your tongue. 28:01 That too wouldn't have been a lot. 28:05 That too wouldn't have been a lot. 28:09 If we had to go through a heavy process, first to purify the tongue, and then only we are allowed to take Allah Ta'ala's name, it would have been befitting. 28:22 Allah Ta'ala is Raheem. 28:24 Allah Ta'ala is Kareem. 28:26 Allah Ta'ala says, no, take my name. 28:29 Take my name. 28:31 This is the first bounty. 28:33 The second ni'mat, the second bounty, is Allah Ta'ala establishes His relationship with you. 28:40 Thereby making you, that means the Salik, 28:44 The object of remembrance of others. 28:48 They therefore remember you with titles such as Wadiyullah. 28:52 Saifullah. 28:55 Don't we take the names of our Aqabireen. 29:00 We take the names of our Aqabireen. 29:02 That this person, what a great wadi he was. 29:05 That person is Hakeemul Ummat. 29:07 That person is Haleemul Ummat. 29:10 That person is Arif Billah. 29:11 That person is... 29:17 But must remember, must remember, these titles that are given, befitting people must give the title, you know. 29:33 Our Hazrat Rahmatullahi, he explained once, that people call Hazrat Shaqib Akhtar Sahib Rahmatullahi, they call him Arif Billah. 29:45 Say Arif Billah. 29:49 Who gave him the title Arif Billah? 29:52 Who gave him the title? 29:54 Mureeds, they'll give every title. 29:57 Mureeds, they will give every title to their Sheikh. 30:02 Sometime they really mean the titles. 30:05 Sometime they really mean it. 30:08 But that is how a Mureed is supposed to be. 30:11 He is supposed to have Azmat of his Sheikh in his heart. 30:14 So he'll give his sheikh every title. 30:17 If somebody talks about the Qutub of the Zamana, he'll say, no, that's my sheikh. 30:21 Somebody talk about the Baghdadi of the Zamana, he'll say, no, that's my sheikh. 30:26 Anything of the Zamana, he'll say, no, that's my sheikh. 30:29 That's my sheikh. 30:29 My sheikh. 30:33 So if a murid gives all those titles to the sheikh, he don't carry much weight. 30:39 Because a murid will give every title to his sheikh. 30:43 So that don't carry too much of weight. 30:47 But when the seniors, the sheikh, the ustaz, they give a title to that person, now that will carry weight. 30:59 That will carry weight. 31:03 So Hazrat Shaqib Akhtar sahib, rahmatullahi alayhi, he is sheikh. 31:08 Muhyu sunnah. 31:10 Hazrat Shahabdarul Haq. 31:13 He called him Arif. 31:17 He called him Arif. 31:20 So different, different. 31:22 Otherwise, why you just start throwing titles here, there. 31:25 Everybody will start throwing titles and start calling everybody everything. 31:31 That is not the object. 31:34 That is not the object. 31:35 But what? 31:37 Is being explained to us that when the person will make the dhikr of Allah Ta'ala then the first thing is Allah Ta'ala has made him a dhakir. 31:47 The second thing is Allah Ta'ala establishes such a relationship with that person that that person becomes the object of remembrance of others and through them remembering that person they too are reminded of Allah Ta'ala. 32:02 They too are reminded of Allah Ta'ala. 32:07 And the third thing is by mentioning you in the celestial realms of the Malaika, Allah Ta'ala has made you His Mazkur. 32:20 That you are the object of Allah Ta'ala's remembrance. 32:26 Imagine. 32:28 You are the object of Allah Ta'ala's remembrance. 32:30 Allah Ta'ala is remembering you. 32:35 He has thus 32:36 Completed His favour for you. 32:41 This is a very very you know if a person has to ponder over these ni'mats what great ni'mats these are. 32:49 What great great bounties these are. 32:56 Allah Ta'ala has said that whoever remembers me in his heart whoever remembers Allah Ta'ala in his heart 33:05 I remember him in my heart. 33:08 Not to say Allah Ta'ala got a heart like our heart. 33:12 Right? 33:12 But Allah Ta'ala is speaking to us in a way that we can understand. 33:18 Whoever remembers me in his heart, I remember him in my heart. 33:24 Right? 33:25 And whoever remembers me in a gathering, I remember him in a gathering which is much nobler 33:35 That means he is remembering me on the Farsh. 33:39 Right? 33:40 On the Zameen. 33:42 In the presence of Insan. 33:45 In a gathering of Insan. 33:47 Then I remember him in the gathering of the Malaika. 33:54 It is learned from this Hadith Sharif that Allah Ta'ala remembers that Banda of his who is in Dikrullah. 34:04 This is why we have to constantly be in Dhikrullah. 34:07 Two things are required. 34:09 Right? 34:12 Kasrati Dhikr. 34:15 Make Dhikrullah a lot. 34:17 All the time be in the remembrance of Allah Ta'ala. 34:21 And Dawaam-e-Ta'at. 34:23 All the time in the obedience of Allah Ta'ala. 34:26 Don't be like that person we discussed yesterday. 34:30 That is sitting in the masjid. 34:32 And till after Ishrat. 34:35 And he is reading all his wazifas. 34:37 But he is busy taking Rishwat. 34:42 Sometime we are only concentrating on the wazifas. 34:45 We are concentrating on other other things. 34:48 But the important important things. 34:51 That we are not concentrating on. 34:55 So Kasrati Zikr is a great thing. 34:58 But if the person is just making Zikrullah. 35:01 And there's no ta'at. 35:02 There's no obedience to Allah Ta'ala. 35:06 He's making dhikrullah in the masjid. 35:07 So much dhikrullah. 35:09 But he goes home and he's swearing his wife. 35:13 He's sitting in dini programs and then he goes to the shop and he's swearing all the staff. 35:20 Or his dealings are upside down. 35:25 So then what effect is this dhikrullah having? 35:29 The dhikrullah is supposed to create a presence in the heart, you know, conscious awareness that Ma'Allah is watching me. 35:37 Ma'Allah is watching me. 35:38 Ma'Allah is with me. 35:41 So any moment, any given time, anything he has to do, first thing he will think. 35:48 Did Ma'Allah allow this? 35:49 Didn't Ma'Allah allow this? 35:51 That famous example that Hazrat Shaki Maktir Sahib rahmatullahi alayhi one day, one 35:58 Father brought one small child. 36:00 You know. 36:03 And he's telling the child, no, make sanaam with Hazrat. 36:05 Small child. 36:06 The father was carrying the child. 36:08 So Hazrat Hakeem Sahib, Rahmatullahi, he took out one sweet, right, to give the child. 36:14 Hazrat used to say toffee. 36:16 He took out one toffee to give the child. 36:20 So, now the child turned away. 36:24 Child turned away, looked at the father. 36:29 That child was a good child. 36:30 Look at the father first. 36:32 Today's children they say father don't know what he is talking about. 36:37 Old man what he knows. 36:40 Allah protect us from that. 36:43 But the child looked at the father. 36:48 So the father told the child. 36:51 He is giving you toffee. 36:54 Take it. 36:55 So then the child 36:57 Took that sweet, took that toffee from Hazrat Hakeem Sahib Rahmatullah Ali. 37:02 So then Hazrat Hakeem Akhtar Sahib Rahmatullah Ali, he said, this child has taught us a very big lesson. 37:09 A very big sabak this child has given us. 37:12 That when I offered the child the sweet, then the child looked at his Abba. 37:21 Can I take this thing or I can't take it? 37:24 When the Abba gave the go-ahead, 37:26 That you can have it, then only you took it. 37:30 So like that, anything that is presented to us, we must first look at our Rabbah. 37:37 Look at our Rabb. 37:38 Is this thing permissible or is not permissible? 37:42 Is this thing permissible or not? 37:44 If it is not permissible, it is not allowed, it is something Allah Ta'ala doesn't like, then we must look away. 37:51 Must turn away. 37:54 If Allah Ta'ala has permitted it, Allah Ta'ala likes it, then no problem. 37:59 If Allah Ta'ala doesn't like it, then we must turn away, we must look away. 38:04 Today, unfortunately, we want to ape western ways. 38:12 We want to ape western ways because they love the world, they love life. 38:19 So everything that they do, 38:21 Is to make their life more enjoyable. 38:24 To get more out of the dunya. 38:26 To get more out of enjoyment and life. 38:29 This worldly life. 38:31 Now we also we getting the love of dunya in our heart. 38:34 So we too want to eat these western ways. 38:38 So what happens now when the kuffar they have introduced some concept, some way of doing business, some... Now we want to do that thing. 38:49 We want to do it. 38:51 Now Deen and Shariat has given us guidelines. 38:54 This is allowed. 38:56 This is not allowed. 38:58 Right? 38:59 Now we say no no man. 39:00 Wait now. 39:02 That one you can make lot of money. 39:04 So we want to do that. 39:06 Now we go by the Mufti. 39:08 You see a Mufti. 39:09 We want to do business like this now. 39:11 Now you find and tell us how to do it like this. 39:15 How you can make this thing right. 39:19 Now how is the Mufti going to make it right? 39:21 Something that's wrong is wrong. 39:23 Right? 39:24 But now, alright, we will look into it because they want to use hikmat now. 39:29 These people are coming forward. 39:31 At least they want to do something. 39:33 So we will look into it and we will see. 39:35 Haram is haram. 39:37 Permissible is permissible. 39:39 Impermissible is impermissible. 39:41 It's clear cut. 39:44 But because we have decided that no, that's how, that's the kind of business I want to run. 39:50 That's how I want to do my dealings. 39:52 That's how I want to carry on. 39:54 Right? 39:55 Then now we want the Mufti to make it right. 39:59 He must make it right. 40:02 How he is going to make it right? 40:06 The Quran Sharif is already written. 40:09 The Hadith of Nabi Sallallahu alayhi wasallam is already there. 40:12 The Fuqaha have already explained everything. 40:15 Nothing can be changed now. 40:17 You can't change anything now. 40:20 So the thing is that we need to comply with the Shariat. 40:24 The Shariat don't have to comply with us. 40:28 We must comply with the Shariat. 40:30 This is Shariat. 40:31 This is my Deen. 40:32 So this is how I must do it. 40:34 If Kuffar are doing it another way and it's very very lucrative that's good for them. 40:39 It's not good for me. 40:41 It may be good for them. 40:43 It's not good for me. 40:46 I mustn't get involved. 40:47 And if by me not getting involved, my dunya suffers. 40:54 By me not getting involved, my dunya suffers. 40:59 Then, where's the problem? 41:02 Where is the problem? 41:05 Right? 41:05 Nabiya Kareem sallallahu alayhi wasallam, he mentioned very clearly in the hadith sharif. 41:13 That you have to, I'm giving you the mafoom, you have to make up your mind that you're going to have to take a loss somewhere. 41:21 It's either you're going to go for the world and you're going to lose out in the akhirah. 41:26 Or you're going to go for the akhirah and then you will lose out in the world. 41:32 You will lose out certain things in the world. 41:36 Not to say you'll be a beggar on the street or you won't have food in your stomach but you will lose out certain things. 41:42 There are certain things we can't do that they can do. 41:46 Right? 41:47 We've got certain laws that we have to follow. 41:51 For example now Allah Ta'ala blesses a person he got few million rand. 41:57 Right? 41:59 He got couple million rand. 42:00 Now he wants to invest it. 42:02 Right? 42:07 When he looks around, say, I put in property, only getting about 8% back, man, you know. 42:16 8%, 9%. 42:16 If I put it in that, you're making little bit, making little bit. 42:24 If I put it in the bank, on a fix, I'm getting a good return, man. 42:33 Getting a good return from the 42:35 Double. 42:36 Almost triple what I'll get if I put it in the property. 42:42 But now as a Muslim you can't do it. 42:46 As a Muslim you can't do it. 42:48 So finish. 42:49 Forget about it. 42:52 Put it in the property if you want and just get the 8% and make shukr and carry on. 42:56 Allah Ta'ala will put barakat in there. 42:59 But now you think no no no. 43:00 Go for that thing. 43:04 We are just destroying our self. 43:06 We are destroying our self. 43:08 We are destroying our hereafter. 43:10 Destroying our akhirah. 43:12 So everything like that. 43:13 That is one example. 43:15 Simple, simple things. 43:17 I wake up in the morning and I want to dress up. 43:20 The manner in which I want to dress up. 43:22 Did my Allah allow me to dress like this or not? 43:28 If my Allah never allow me, then I can't dress like that. 43:31 Finish. 43:33 How ma'Allah wants me to dress, that's how I must dress. 43:39 Then I'm going to go and eat. 43:41 Did ma'Allah allow me to eat this? 43:44 Sometime when we are at home, then we very particular, you know. 43:50 Very particular. 43:51 This is halal. 43:52 That is, you know, make sure I got this stamp and that sign. 43:57 Right? 43:58 And was fined out from the morana and all these things. 44:01 But now we've gone on holiday. 44:04 We go on holiday. 44:07 Then our deen too goes on holiday. 44:11 Only problem is we're holidaying in some exotic destination and deen is making holiday at home. 44:20 Then we don't worry after that. 44:23 We don't worry after that. 44:24 For example, take a simple example. 44:29 Here in South Africa, see down the road there, there's one bar. 44:35 But they also sell food there. 44:39 So will you go and sit in that bar and order food even if the food was halal? 44:45 If they had halal food in that bar, will a person go and say, alright, never mind. 44:50 I'm eating the food. 44:51 I'm not drinking the wine. 44:53 He won't. 44:54 But just see now, a person is travelling. 44:57 He's going for Umrah sometime. 45:01 Now he's flying Emirates or he's flying 45:04 Ittihad. 45:06 One of these airlines. 45:07 And now they stop over in Dubai or Abu Dhabi or somewhere. 45:14 And now there is a flight delay more than 12 hours. 45:17 The airlines say no, no, no. 45:18 We put you up. 45:20 Put you all up for the night. 45:22 And we give you breakfast also. 45:24 Give you dinner. 45:25 Give you breakfast. 45:27 Now you go to that hotel. 45:28 Top class hotel. 45:30 And you go for breakfast. 45:32 Or you go for dinner. 45:34 And you go inside there and there is a bar. 45:37 Now there how come we sit down and we comfortable and we can eat? 45:45 All the Mu'tamireen going for Umrah. 45:48 All sitting in the bar and having dinner. 45:52 It's a bar. 45:53 What else is it? 45:55 The restaurant. 45:56 We got all wine and everything. 45:58 So how come it becomes permissible there now? 46:01 At home we won't do it. 46:03 But when we go on holiday then we do it. 46:04 No matter where I am, my taqwa must remain with sanamati. 46:20 Not that only when I'm at home, then I got taqwa. 46:23 When I'm out in Jamaat, I got taqwa. 46:25 When I'm sitting in front of my Sheikh, I got taqwa. 46:29 And after that, when I'm overseas, I'm somewhere else, I'm on holiday, then anything goes after that. 46:38 It shouldn't be like that. 46:41 We have to be worshipping Allah Ta'ala. 46:44 We are servants of Allah Ta'ala. 46:46 At any given moment, we have to be obedient to the hukam of Allah Ta'ala. 46:51 Be obedient to the commands of Allah. 46:55 In anything and everything that we do. 46:57 Whether it is how we talk. 46:59 How we walk. 47:00 How we earn. 47:02 What we eating. 47:03 What we dressing. 47:05 How we purchasing our homes. 47:07 How we purchasing our motor cars. 47:11 All these things we have to worry about. 47:14 Today I was. 47:14 You know. 47:16 I met one person. 47:20 So the person tells me, he says, you know, the Oliya Allah of the past, I read, when they used to go to Madinah Munawarah, then they used to say, that O Manakal Mot, where are you? 47:38 In other words, it's showing that how they used to have love to pass away in Madinah Munawarah. 47:45 Right? 47:46 How they used to have love to pass away in Madinah Munawarah. 47:50 So the person. 47:52 Barzubane hal. 47:55 When he is in Madinah Munawarah. 47:56 His condition is such. 47:59 Right. 47:59 That he is feeling now. 48:00 When does. 48:01 Why does. 48:02 Don't come take my ruah. 48:04 That I too can become a patch here. 48:06 In Jannatul Baqi. 48:09 Like one of our. 48:09 One of our. 48:10 He went to. 48:17 Saudi. 48:18 Those days they used to go for long periods of time. 48:21 So he went and he had a visa for so many months or whatever it was. 48:26 So when the time came that his visa was expiring. 48:30 So he went to renew the visa. 48:32 So they renewed it for him for another short while. 48:37 And now that one also was coming to an end. 48:43 So he went to renew again. 48:44 So they told him, see here, now we can only renew for this much and after that there is no other renewal. 48:51 So they gave him the forms to fill in. 48:54 And he must state a reason that why he wants a renewal. 48:58 Why does he need an extension on his visa? 49:02 So he filled in all his particulars, everything, passport number, whatever. 49:06 When he came there, he must fill in the reason for the extension. 49:10 So he wrote there to pass away. 49:14 So when officials, they read the paper, they had a good laugh. 49:17 Like, you know, I went to this person, what he's writing here. 49:21 And now the days are going. 49:23 The days are going and he's coming close to the time now when he has to leave. 49:29 And a day or something before that, before the expiry, Allah Ta'ala took him away. 49:36 Allah Ta'ala took him away in Madinah Manawarah. 49:39 So he lies buried in Madinah Manawarah. 49:44 Many many of our Aqabireen. 49:47 Alhamdulillah. 49:48 Allah Ta'ala blessed them with Maut in Madinah Manwara. 49:51 Makkah Mukarrama. 49:52 Right? 49:52 So it's a wonderful thing. 49:54 I mean every believer has that Tamanna. 49:57 Has that desire. 49:58 I mean even Ameerul Mu'mineen. 50:00 Umar radiyallahu ta'ala. 50:02 I mean see Nabi Akareem sallallahu alayhi wasallam. 50:05 He said that my desire is that I must be martyred in the part of Allah. 50:12 The part of Allah must be martyred 50:14 Then Allah Ta'ala must give me life again. 50:16 Then I must be martyred again. 50:17 Allah must give me life again. 50:18 I must be martyred again. 50:21 That's what I would love. 50:23 That's how I want to pass away. 50:26 So Umar radiyallahu ta'ala, he too wants to be martyred in the path of Allah. 50:34 But on the other hand now, all the virtues of passing away in Madinah Munawwara and being buried in Madinah Munawwara near Nabi Akarim sallallahu alayhi wasallam. 50:45 So he is torn between the two. 50:48 That one side he wants a shahadat mu'th. 50:51 And the other side he wants a mu'th in Madinah Munawwara to be close to Nabi Akarim sallallahu alayhi wasallam. 51:02 So he is to make dua. 51:04 Allahumma rizukni shahadatan fi sabirika. 51:08 Duru Allah. 51:08 Give me martyrdom in your path. 51:11 Waj'al mawti fi baladi rasulika. 51:14 And make my death in the city of your Rasul sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. 51:20 So people used to think that this is an impossibility. 51:23 Because Madinah Munawwara is the markers. 51:25 I mean the Muslims at that time. 51:27 They were strong. 51:29 Right? 51:29 They were ruling so much of the world. 51:31 And Madinah Manawarah. 51:32 Nobody will think of taking a chance in Madinah Manawarah. 51:35 No one is going to come and attack Madinah Manawarah. 51:38 This is the stronghold. 51:39 This is the markers. 51:42 But Allah Ta'ala made it. 51:45 Abu Luluh. 51:46 Majusi. 51:48 He stabbed Azad Umar. 51:51 That too while he is doing namaz. 51:53 And which namaz? 51:55 Fajr namaz. 51:57 Fajr namaz is that namaz where it is mentioned that the malaika are present there. 52:05 Aqimis salatari dulukis shams. 52:09 Ila wasaqil layl. 52:11 Wa Quran al-fajr. 52:13 Inna Quran al-fajri kaanam mashhuda. 52:17 Under the tafsir of that ayat it is mentioned. 52:21 In other namazs the malaika are not there. 52:23 They are there. 52:25 But in Fajr namaz is a time for a shift change. 52:30 The malaika of the night, they are changing shift now with the malaika of the day. 52:36 So Fajr time, both sets of malaika are present. 52:41 Both sets of malaika are present at Fajr time. 52:45 Right? 52:45 When the shift change is taking place. 52:48 So both sets of malaika, they are witnessing the Fajr namaz taking place. 52:53 But Hazrat-e-Insan, he is surah. 52:59 He is sleeping one way. 53:01 Right? 53:02 Hazrat-e-Rahmatullah Ali used to say that we talk about the rise of Islam, the rise of Islam, but we are only rising after sunrise. 53:11 Where are we going to have the rise of Islam? 53:14 Talking about the rise of Islam. 53:16 Islam finish rise. 53:19 The Muslim is only rising after sunrise. 53:23 The Muslim needs to rise before sunrise. 53:26 Then you will see the rise of Muslims. 53:29 Islam finish rise. 53:35 So what I was telling you. 53:39 Hazrat Umar radiallahu ta'ala. 53:41 He is torn between the two. 53:44 So he wants Shahadat also and he wants Maut in Madina Munwara. 53:48 So Allah Ta'ala blessed him with both. 53:50 Abu Luluh Majusi stabbed him. 53:53 That too in Fajr Namaz also. 53:56 In Namaz. 53:57 In Madina Munwara. 53:58 On the Musalla of Nabi Karim. 54:00 Sallallahu alayhi wasallam. 54:02 And then he is buried next to Nabi Sallallahu alayhi wasallam. 54:05 Just in between. 54:07 Only in between him is Abu Bakr now. 54:10 Between him and Nabi Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is Abu Bakr. 54:13 Radhiallahu ta'ala. 54:15 So close. 54:16 He is buried to Nabi al-Karim. 54:18 Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. 54:19 Right. 54:20 So to have that tamanna. 54:22 To pass away in Madinah Manawarah. 54:23 This is a desire of every believer. 54:26 But whether you gonna pass away there. 54:28 Whether you not gonna pass away there. 54:30 This is the decree of Allah. 54:32 If a person don't pass away in Madinah Manawarah. 54:34 Don't mean he doesn't have Ishq-e Rasul. 54:36 Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. 54:38 Right. 54:39 Doesn't mean that, no, this person, he didn't love Nabi Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, that's why he never passed away there. 54:43 Doesn't mean that. 54:45 So many sahaba radiallahu ta'ala, way and way they passed away. 54:50 So far, far away they passed away. 54:52 China, there is Qubur of Sahaba. 54:54 Because they went out in the path of Allah Ta'ala. 54:57 They went to spread the deen of Allah Ta'ala. 54:59 So if a person is gone out, he's spreading the deen of Allah Ta'ala. 55:03 He passes away in some far away land, some foreign land. 55:06 You think that he wasn't a lover of Allah and Allah's deen? 55:09 And Allah's Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam? 55:12 Definitely he was. 55:13 Right? 55:15 Definitely he was. 55:16 So, this person, my point what I was telling you, that this person was saying that the Odiya Allah, the Ahlullah of the past, when they used to go to Madina Manowara, to bazubane haal, they used to be saying, that O Angel of Death, where are you? 55:36 Come and take my soul. 55:38 Come and take my soul. 55:39 And you don't have to go far. 55:41 It's not only in the past, like we talk about the past, now we think like, you know, 55:48 500 years. 55:48 1000 years ago. 55:49 No. 55:51 Hazrat Rahmatullahi. 55:55 Our Sheikh. 55:59 He was in Madinah Munawarah. 56:01 And in Madinah Munawarah he used to be making the dua. 56:06 One day he told one friend. 56:09 He said come. 56:10 You know at home every time we're making this dua. 56:12 Every time everybody is saying I want to pass away in Madinah Manohara. 56:16 Now we are right here. 56:18 So let's make dua to Allah. 56:20 Allah take us away now. 56:23 I'll make dua. 56:24 You say Ameen. 56:26 So that person told Hazrat Rahmatullahi. 56:28 I said no. 56:30 No, no. 56:31 This trip. 56:31 No, this trip. 56:34 Still got one, two things to sort out at home. 56:37 Maybe next trip when we come. 56:39 So that's our condition. 56:43 But the sincere ones, this is what they say. 56:47 Puri huvi har tamanna meri. 56:51 Every tamanna of mine got fulfilled. 56:54 But this one tamanna is still left. 56:57 That I pass away here in Madinah. 57:00 Ab na jana ho gar hamko wapas. 57:03 Ab na jana ho gar hamko wapas. 57:06 Chukye. 57:06 Chukye. 57:06 Yeh maange. 57:07 Dua. 57:09 Silently. 57:09 Silently. 57:10 We're making that dua. 57:11 I don't want to go back home now. 57:15 Take me away here. 57:16 Right? 57:17 So he was explaining these things. 57:19 And he was, the way he was explaining it, like his heart was, you know, melting that look at these people, how they were, that they were making, you know, they were like, Malakal Murtu kaha hai? 57:30 Take me away here in Madinah Manwara. 57:34 But within that same five minutes, within that same five minutes, he is talking about motor car bought on interest. 57:51 Right? 57:53 So this is the point. 57:55 That we are getting emotional about all these flattery kind of things which is not in our control. 58:01 It's not in our control. 58:05 It will happen if Allah Ta'ala wants it to happen. 58:08 It may not happen. 58:09 It's Allah's decree where we're going to pass away. 58:12 Right? 58:12 Allah Ta'ala mentions in the Quran Sharif. 58:16 Right? 58:19 Wa ma tadri. 58:21 How the ayat goes? 58:23 Bi ayyi ard in tamut. 58:25 You don't know. 58:26 No soul knows where he's going to pass away. 58:30 No soul knows where he's going to pass away. 58:36 But now we get emotional over this. 58:40 Which is not in our control. 58:42 We can make dua for it. 58:44 But on the other side, now to get involved in a riba based transaction, that is in our control to stay away from it. 58:54 Now that, now you're worried about the past. 58:57 Malakal. 58:58 Motu. 58:58 Kaha hai. 58:59 Lakin me to dastakhat kar raahu. 59:03 I am signing a war. 59:05 This thing. 59:06 Acknowledgement with Allah. 59:07 Because Allah says a person who enters into riba transaction. 59:12 He gets involved in this riba. 59:13 This interest. 59:15 Then he has announced war. 59:21 So that which is in our control. 59:24 This is a doka and a deception of shaitan. 59:27 That the things that are in our control, that we're not worried about. 59:32 The things that are not in our control, those things we're giving so much of time and attention to things that are not in our control. 59:41 So much we'll discuss about Muhammad bin Salman, what he's up to and what this one is up to and what the Egypt government is doing and what the Chinese are doing to the Muslims there in China and what 59:57 Yes, it bleeds us. 1:00:00 It bleeds us. 1:00:01 We are worried. 1:00:04 What are we doing in our own home? 1:00:07 What are we doing to our own children? 1:00:09 Our own children, what are we doing? 1:00:13 We are worried about the Chinese that they are taking these children away from their parents and they are saying they are going to brainwash these children so these children don't carry on with Islam. 1:00:24 Then they are forcing the people that they can't keep Roza. 1:00:27 They are forcefully removing the niqab and the hijab from the woman. 1:00:33 This is what they are doing according to the reports that are coming. 1:00:36 Right? 1:00:37 So now we get so upset that they are doing all these things. 1:00:41 But in our house what's happening? 1:00:44 In our house what's happening? 1:00:45 When we taking that child of ours and putting in a Christian ethos school, what have we done? 1:00:51 Isn't we also brainwashing that child? 1:00:54 When we're going and buying all this fashionable clothing and tights and everything and making our children wear, what difference between us and the Chinese government? 1:01:04 In fact, what the Chinese government is doing, they are being faced with resistance. 1:01:09 And that will make the Iman of those people stronger. 1:01:15 Those Muslims, their Iman will get even stronger. 1:01:19 But what we're doing in our homes... 1:01:22 Our children, bichara, when they are getting big, they don't know the difference of a lifestyle of a Muslim and a lifestyle of a kafir. 1:01:30 They don't know the difference. 1:01:32 Because we are bringing the same non-Muslim lifestyle into our house. 1:01:38 From small, we brought big, big television and we're showing the children big, big television. 1:01:44 So aren't we also brainwashing our own children? 1:01:48 We also removing their scarf and their niqab and everything. 1:01:52 But we doing a different style. 1:01:55 We doing in a different way. 1:02:00 So these are things in this Mubarak month. 1:02:03 These Mubarak nights. 1:02:04 When we talking about Toba. 1:02:06 Toba and making Istighfar and all. 1:02:08 What is this Toba and Istighfar? 1:02:12 That we have to make Toba from all these things. 1:02:16 We have to change these things. 1:02:19 And we have to come on Sirat-e-Mustaqeem. 1:02:23 It's not just about sitting in one night and say, Oh, I'll cast in one thousand months. 1:02:28 Right? 1:02:30 That is an easy thing to do. 1:02:31 That is an easy thing to do. 1:02:35 But just as easy as it came, so easy like that it can go. 1:02:42 Because a person, he is sitting, he says, I cashed in. 1:02:47 Oh, 27 nights. 1:02:47 I made Ibadat. 1:02:49 24th, 23rd, 21st, 29th, everything. 1:02:51 I got 1000 months off. 1:02:54 Right? 1:02:56 But as soon as he finished now, now he is going home and he is entering that house which he bought on Riba. 1:03:06 Right? 1:03:09 Right? 1:03:10 He is going to sleep on the bed he bought on riba. 1:03:17 He is waking up for tahajjud. 1:03:18 Beautiful tahajjud. 1:03:20 He is making dua on the carpet. 1:03:21 The carpet he bought on riba. 1:03:25 So what Nabi Akarim sallallahu alayhi wasallam mentioned? 1:03:30 That a person he is disheveled. 1:03:35 He is dust covered. 1:03:36 He is a musafir. 1:03:40 In other words, he's got everything on him that is supposed to attract the mercy of Allah Ta'ala. 1:03:45 Right? 1:03:47 And he's picking up his hand and he's making dua. 1:03:49 He's crying to Allah Ta'ala. 1:03:53 But, everything of his is riba. 1:03:57 Everything of his is interest. 1:04:01 He has been nourished with interest. 1:04:05 So, Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, Allah Ta'ala, Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam mentioned in the hadiths, 1:04:10 So where is his dua going to be accepted? 1:04:14 Where is his dua now going to be accepted? 1:04:21 Today we don't think anything of it. 1:04:23 OD facility. 1:04:25 This facility. 1:04:26 This swiping the credit cards. 1:04:27 Just going to town. 1:04:29 Just need to change the shape of the car. 1:04:31 Just phone the bank. 1:04:32 Long as I just get them. 1:04:33 I just get enough to put a deposit on the other car. 1:04:36 You know. 1:04:37 People are not even, they just come to the car dealer. 1:04:40 So, it's gone like a normal thing. 1:04:43 So, what you owing on the car? 1:04:46 So, what you owing? 1:04:48 So, alright, I can get you out of this. 1:04:50 So, what must I get you into? 1:04:52 Can get you out of this. 1:04:53 What I must get you into? 1:04:56 Now there's nothing wrong with that man's car. 1:04:59 Just that now the new shape came out. 1:05:01 The brother-in-law finished by the new shape. 1:05:03 The other one finished by his friend finished by the new shape. 1:05:06 Now what they gonna think? 1:05:07 Now he's no more in the bracket now you see. 1:05:09 So he too needs to make a change. 1:05:11 He needs to. 1:05:12 The facelift came out. 1:05:13 The new shape came out. 1:05:14 Needs to make a change. 1:05:16 So he's just sinking more and sinking more and sinking more. 1:05:21 Person got a house. 1:05:24 Now I know another property came up. 1:05:26 We can buy that one. 1:05:28 Give us. 1:05:28 We got facility. 1:05:30 Bank manager will give. 1:05:32 We can just buy the other property just for investment or just for amassing. 1:05:37 Right? 1:05:39 Now he is buying another property. 1:05:40 Buying another property. 1:05:42 He is owing on this one. 1:05:43 Owing on that one. 1:05:44 Owing on that one. 1:05:45 Owning half the town and owing three quarter the banks. 1:05:52 What's the use? 1:05:54 What is the use? 1:05:56 So those, some people are on a small scale. 1:06:01 One youngster came to me. 1:06:02 Young person, man. 1:06:03 I felt him so sorry. 1:06:06 Young person. 1:06:06 Allah ta'ala take him out of his problem. 1:06:08 He is repentant. 1:06:09 He wants to change his life. 1:06:11 Allah ta'ala take him out of his problem. 1:06:13 But young man. 1:06:14 He has hardly started his life. 1:06:18 And he is involved. 1:06:19 He said, no, no, I'm in a problem. 1:06:21 I've got some debts. 1:06:22 So I'm thinking, alright. 1:06:24 Young man, Naqim, what debts now? 1:06:25 Maybe he bought some shoes, some cloth item, one, two perfumes from Edgar somewhere. 1:06:30 He took on account six months to pay and he can't pay. 1:06:33 So five thousand, ten thousand, alright. 1:06:35 Let's get him out of his problem and get him on his way. 1:06:38 I said, alright, just send me a breakdown, you know, what you involved for and how. 1:06:45 Man is involved for almost two hundred and fifty thousand rand. 1:06:51 This bank. 1:06:52 That loan. 1:06:53 That shark. 1:06:54 This thing. 1:06:55 Now. 1:06:56 At that age. 1:06:57 Young person. 1:06:58 Already so much payments. 1:07:00 Every month now. 1:07:02 Now he is in a parashani. 1:07:03 He doesn't know what to do. 1:07:06 This is this interesting. 1:07:08 So one is the super rich. 1:07:11 They will be involved on a different level. 1:07:13 Then you get the poorer class. 1:07:17 This going by the loan shark. 1:07:19 Taking money. 1:07:21 Interest. 1:07:22 Loan. 1:07:23 Mothers now want to buy eat clothes for their children. 1:07:27 They haven't got money. 1:07:28 They give them the loan shark. 1:07:30 We just take a thousand rand, two thousand rand and we pay him. 1:07:34 Pay the loan shark. 1:07:37 To buy eat clothes for the child because now what the people will think if my child haven't got new eat clothes. 1:07:45 This interest is really a terrible thing. 1:07:50 And it's becoming more and more accessible. 1:07:55 Ask our young friends. 1:08:00 I got a call the other day while I was in the classroom. 1:08:05 They say, what, we are from some company. 1:08:08 They gave the name of the company. 1:08:09 I said, you know, so I asked now, what, you're selling something or what? 1:08:14 Because all these companies phone now, Terry Sales, you know. 1:08:17 I said, what, you? 1:08:18 They said, no, no, no. 1:08:20 We can, if your name is blacklisted, your name is blacklisted, then we can help you to make it whitelisted again. 1:08:31 So I tell him, no, if my name is blacklisted, it's very good. 1:08:36 I say, why? 1:08:36 I say, because today, anything that if you are is black, you stand a better chance. 1:08:44 You stand a better chance. 1:08:45 You get a job. 1:08:46 Anything. 1:08:46 If black, you stand a better chance. 1:08:48 White days are over now. 1:08:49 Now black days are in. 1:08:51 So it's fine. 1:08:51 You stay black. 1:08:54 So, they say, no, no, no. 1:08:57 We're not talking about that. 1:08:59 I say, alright, what you talking about? 1:09:01 They say, no, if you can't get credit facility, you know, you can't get credit facility, then we can clear your name and you'll be able to get a credit facility. 1:09:15 So I asked, I said, but why would I want that? 1:09:18 Why would I want that? 1:09:19 I said, then how are you going to live if you don't have that? 1:09:23 If you don't build your credit rating, how are you going to live? 1:09:27 So I said, no. 1:09:30 God wants you to live without that. 1:09:35 God wants you to live without that. 1:09:37 He said, no, it's very hard. 1:09:39 I said, no, it's very easy. 1:09:41 It's not very hard. 1:09:41 Listen to me. 1:09:43 Take it from me. 1:09:44 Stop clearing people's names. 1:09:46 Whoever is blacklisted, leave them blacklisted. 1:09:48 They won't be able to get more credit. 1:09:49 You'll be doing them a favor. 1:09:54 But this is the thing. 1:09:56 That everyone is just being offered. 1:09:59 One side, the dunya is coming with all its glitter and its glamour and its... And now we're getting greedy for it. 1:10:11 See, Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam mentioned, I don't fear poverty for you. 1:10:16 I don't fear poverty for you. 1:10:19 What I fear is that the world will open up for you. 1:10:24 And then you will hanker after it. 1:10:27 And it will destroy you like it destroyed the people before you. 1:10:33 It will destroy you like it destroyed the people before you. 1:10:37 That's what I fear for you. 1:10:38 I don't fear poverty for you. 1:10:41 And this is exactly what we see. 1:10:43 Whether it's a poor people, whether it's a working class, whether it's a super rich. 1:10:49 The person who is super rich, if he is driving a German saloon, his eyes is on the Ferrari. 1:10:58 His eyes is on the Porsche. 1:10:59 His eyes is on the Lamborghini. 1:11:02 The person who is driving a Toyota Corolla, and he is driving some car like that, his eyes is on the German saloon. 1:11:10 A fellow who is riding a bicycle, now his eyes is on a Toyota. 1:11:13 His eyes is on a Tata. 1:11:15 All of us, our eyes is on what we can't afford. 1:11:19 What we can't afford, our eyes is on that. 1:11:22 And this is the doka of the dunya. 1:11:24 And then to get it, to acquire it, we're getting involved in interest dealing. 1:11:30 We're getting involved in interest dealing. 1:11:33 So really, you know, this interest, we have to get it out of our life. 1:11:39 Every other guna also. 1:11:42 One is interest. 1:11:43 Some people, their dealings are good. 1:11:47 But then they get involved in interest. 1:11:49 And other people, what are they doing? 1:11:51 They are using other people's money. 1:11:53 Jabran. 1:11:55 They are going and buying goods. 1:11:56 They are going and taking this. 1:11:57 They are not paying the people. 1:12:00 And then they are enjoying the money. 1:12:03 Buying luxuries and whatever. 1:12:05 And not paying the people. 1:12:07 This too is such a terrible thing. 1:12:11 All this thing is happening because of greed for dunya. 1:12:16 Greed for dunya. 1:12:16 The dunya is with all its... Why if we can't afford something, do without it? 1:12:24 What's in there? 1:12:27 We don't have to be living in palaces. 1:12:29 We have to have that only if you got certain kind tap, then the water will taste nice. 1:12:35 No, no. 1:12:36 Even you got one rubber pipe there, one plastic pipe also, the water will taste... 1:12:42 Whether you got one fancy tap, computerized tap, or whether you got one pipe, this one pipe coming out, the water is seeing. 1:12:54 The shower head is not going to determine how clean you are. 1:12:59 The shower head is not going to determine how clean you can become. 1:13:07 So we have to be ready. 1:13:09 Think about these things. 1:13:10 Allah Ta'ala. 1:13:11 Give us tawfiq. 1:13:13 So many of these things just flooding my mind right now. 1:13:16 But it's a week night also. 1:13:20 It's a Jummah night. 1:13:21 A beautiful night. 1:13:23 An odd night. 1:13:25 And we make dua to Allah Ta'ala. 1:13:27 Allah Ta'ala give us tawfiq to give up everything that is haram in our lives. 1:13:33 We must give it up. 1:13:34 And we must come unto the obedience of Allah Rabbul Izzat. 1:13:42 So we will make dua in a few minutes. 1:13:47 About five minutes. 1:13:50 In about five minutes time. 1:13:52 So in this five minutes we just contemplate on our life. 1:14:01 The greatness of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. 1:14:05 Where we are and where we need to be. 1:14:08 Contemplate for a few minutes. 1:14:10 And then we would engage in dua. 1:14:12 InshaAllah. 1:17:44 Al-Fatiha. 1:18:35 Alhamdulillahi Rabbil Alameen. 1:18:37 Walakibatulil muttaqeen. 1:18:39

1:19:42 Al-Fatiha. 1:19:59 O Allah. 1:20:00 O our most beloved Allah. 1:20:02 Kind Allah. 1:20:04 Loving Allah. 1:20:05 Forgiving Allah. 1:20:07 Tolerant Allah. 1:20:08 Caring Allah. 1:20:09 O our Allah who loves to forgive. 1:20:12 O our Allah who becomes pleased when his bandas turn to him for forgiveness. 1:20:17 O Allah, we are your weak slaves. 1:20:19 We are full of faults. 1:20:21 Full of shortcomings. 1:20:22 Full of weaknesses. 1:20:24 Full of deficiencies. 1:20:25 O Allah, we have blackened our hearts with our sins. 1:20:28 O Allah. 1:20:29 Ya Allah, from the time we became of age, right up till this very day, we have led a life of ghaflat. 1:20:35 A life of guna. 1:20:36 O Allah. 1:20:37 Ya Allah. 1:20:38 We have ignored your ahkam. 1:20:40 We have trampled upon the sunnahs of our beloved Rasulullah. 1:20:44 Sallallahu alayhi wasallam. 1:20:46 O my beloved Allah. 1:20:48 But we are turning to you. 1:20:49 In this Mubarak month. 1:20:51 On this Mubarak night. 1:20:53 Ya Allah. 1:20:53 We are beggars in front of you. 1:20:55 With our begging bowls. 1:20:57 Ya Allah. 1:20:58 Presented before you. 1:21:00 Ya Allah. 1:21:01 We are not justifying any of our sins. 1:21:04 We are confessing each and every sin in your court. 1:21:06 We are guilty on each count, O Allah. 1:21:09 But we are turning to you. 1:21:11 Ya Allah, we are turning to you. 1:21:13 Ya Allah, our condition should be such that we should have lost hope, O Allah. 1:21:19 So much gunas we have committed that our condition would have been such that we would have lost hope, O Allah. 1:21:25 Ya Allah, if it wasn't for your kind words, your beautiful loving words in the Quran Sharif, 1:21:31 Where you have told us, لَا تَقْنَتُ مِنْ رَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقْفِرُ الظُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًا إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْغُفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ Ya Allah, if you didn't give us these loving words, this encouragement, instructing us never ever to lose hope in your mercy, then you know what would have happened to us, O Allah. 1:21:51 Ya Allah but we are turning to you. 1:21:53 No matter what our gunas are. 1:21:55 We know that you are greater than our sins O Allah. 1:21:58 No matter how many sins we have committed. 1:22:01 But your maghfirat is much much greater O Allah. 1:22:04 Ya Allah. 1:22:05 Ya Allah when Nabi sallallahu alayhi wasallam has informed us. 1:22:08 That you have got written O Allah. 1:22:11 That your mercy overrides your anger O Allah. 1:22:14 Your mercy far supersedes and overrides your anger O Allah. 1:22:18 Ya Allah we are turning to you. 1:22:20 We are begging of you. 1:22:24 We are begging of you. 1:22:26 We are begging of you. 1:22:29 We are begging of you. 1:22:30 We are begging of you. 1:22:35 We are begging of you. 1:22:45 Sab kuch hai maula. 1:22:47 Bandeh maghar tere. 1:22:53 O Allah. 1:22:56 In gandeh diro ke saath ham gandeh jaye kaha. 1:23:00 Jaye kaha maula. 1:23:03 Where are we going to go, O Allah? 1:23:07 We cannot return to you, O Allah. 1:23:11 We are knocking at your door, O Allah. 1:23:14 You open your door of forgiveness for us. 1:23:17 SubhanAllah. 1:23:19 Forgive each and every one of us. 1:23:20 SubhanAllah. 1:23:23 Forgive each and every sin that we have committed. 1:23:26 Wipe out each and every sin from our name. 1:23:30 Remove every blood drop from our hearts. 1:23:33 SubhanAllah. 1:23:36 Ya Allah. 1:23:37 Our life is gone. 1:23:38 It's gone. 1:23:39 We cannot bring back a single moment. 1:23:41 All we can do is cry over our sins. 1:23:44 SubhanAllah. 1:23:48 Ya Allah. 1:23:50 You forgive us. 1:23:52 You forgive us. 1:23:54 Ya Allah, you give us tawfiq never to return to those sins, O Allah. 1:23:59 We are tired of this life of guna. 1:24:02 This life of sin brings nothing but pain, misery, sorrow, O Allah. 1:24:07 Ya Allah. 1:24:09 We are tired of this life of sin. 1:24:11 We want to turn and you leave. 1:24:13 We want to come on Sirat-e-Mustaqeem. 1:24:16 Ya Allah. 1:24:17 We want to start pleasing you, O Allah. 1:24:19 Far too long have we remained the puppy dogs of nafs and shaitan, O Allah. 1:24:24 Ya Allah, we want to come out of the bondage of nafs and shaitan. 1:24:28 Now we want to be your sincere bandas, O Allah. 1:24:31 We have wasted too much of time, O Allah. 1:24:34 Too many years have gone by in ghaflat, O Allah. 1:24:40 Ya Allah. 1:24:41 Ya Allah, bless us with your love. 1:24:46 With your ma'rifat. 1:24:47 With your qurb. 1:24:49 Fill our hearts with your nur. 1:24:51 Ya Allah. 1:24:52 Let our hearts beat with your name. 1:24:54 O Allah. 1:24:55 Ya Allah. 1:24:56 Now let us use every limb. 1:24:58 Every organ. 1:24:59 Every bit of strength. 1:25:01 Every resource that you have given us. 1:25:03 Only for your obedience. 1:25:05 Surah Al-Fatiha. 1:25:20 We want to worship you. 1:25:21 We want to make that the primary objective in our life. 1:25:25 Ya Allah, we want to worship you, O Allah. 1:25:27 We want to be yours, O Allah. 1:25:29 We want to

Practical Advice
Do not give up daily azkar or spiritual practices simply because your mind wanders; keep striving until focus develops.
When troubling whispers (waswasa ) arise in prayer, do not engage or argue with them; seek refuge in Allah Ta'ala (A'udhu billahi minash-shaitanir-rajim ) and continue your worship.
Audit financial dealings to ensure complete freedom from riba (interest), credit debts, and impermissible business practices.
Align household lifestyle and child upbringing with Islamic values rather than copying un-Islamic societal trends.
Engage frequently in sincere tawbah and istighfar , especially during blessed nights, asking Allah Ta'ala for guidance, halal sustenance, and a good death (husn al-khatimah ).
