And then, my brothers and sisters, we have been talking about the importance of the niyyah, the importance of the intention, and the importance of ikhlas wal niyyah, which is the sincerity of the intention. This is absolutely critical and as I mentioned to you in the hadith yesterday in Sahih Muslim, Allah specifically mentioned the three people who even though on the face of it they would...

Tasliman kathiran kathirah. Humma ba'du, my brothers and sisters, Ya Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, we know the first hadith in Bukhari, narrated by Umar ibn al-Khattab radi allahu anhu, where Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is reported to have said: "He said, the reward of the deed is based on its intention." This applies obviously to the Akhira where we get the rewards, but it also applies to the Dunya because in...

Umar Baidu, my brothers and sisters, we focus on our actions, we focus on what we should do and things which will help us, inshaAllah in this dunya and in the Akhira. When we do that, it is important also to focus on what lies behind each thing. For example, one of the scholars says that some actions are worthless if some other things are not done along with them. For example, he said, a person claims to fear Allah. A person claims to fear Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. Yet he does not abstain from sin. Yet he does not stop from committing sins. Therefore, the claim is futile. The claim has no meaning. Because if a person says, I...

Muhammad wa as-salallahu alayhi wa ala alihi wa sahbihi wa sallam. Tasliman kathiram kathira. And then, the verses which were recited in the second rak'at from Surah Al-Alimran. Allahﷻ said, إِنَّ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَاقْتِرَابِ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ لَآيَاتٍ لِأُولِي الْأَلْبَابِ And then Allah said, الَّذِينَ يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ قِيَامًا وَقُعُودًا وَعَلَى جُنُوبِهِمْ وَيَتَفَكَّرُونَ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَاءَاتِ رَبَّنَا مَا خَلَقْتَ هَذَا بَاطِلًا سُبْحَانَكَ فَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ Allahﷻ said, Verily, in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation, the change of the day and the night, there are signs for people of intelligence, for people who can think. And then Allahﷻ described those people. Who are these people? الَّذِينَ يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ قِيَامًا وَقُعُودًا وَعَلَى جُنُوبِهِمْ Allah said, these are the people who remember Allahﷻ, make dhikr of Allahﷻ, standing, sitting and lying down. So standing, sitting and lying down are the three positions of the human body. There is no fourth position. You are either standing or sitting or lying down. So this refers to their entire life, all their actions, whatever they are doing. They remember Allahﷻ...

Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and peace and blessings be upon the noblest of prophets and messengers, our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and companions. We spoke yesterday about what happens when we insist on disobeying Allahﷻ. There is a saying in Arabic: لَا كَبِيرَةَ مَعَ الِاسْتِغْفَارِ، وَلَا صَغِيرَةَ مَعَ الْإِصْرَارِ "There is no major sin combined with istighfar, and no minor sin combined with persistence." Meaning, if you make istighfar, Allah will forgive it. You cannot have a major sin (*kabirah*) and istighfar together, just as you cannot have darkness and light simultaneously in the same place—as soon as light come...

Now, one of the things that he says, he says that there are three things that a person gets involved in, which results in Allah's anger, which destroys that person. So, sometimes the way people say these things, they say for example, Allahﷻ causes a person to be involved in X, Y, Z and those are negative things. That is not the best way of saying it because Allahﷻ does not misguide and mislead people. Allahﷻ guides people. Allahﷻ is Al-Hadi. He is the one who shows the way. Allah is not the one who makes you go. If Allahﷻ wanted to misguide you, then He would not have sent the Rasulullah to say. He would not have sent this Kitab. There was no need to do anything. We would have been misguided a...
