in alhamdulillah motherhood Astorino hornstock fiddle when I order below him ensure lorry and Poochyena woman say idea marina mayor de la fellowmen delaila woman little fella hadiyyah-lah why shadow la la hey la la grotta who la sharika de why shadow and muhammadan abduhu wa rasuluh assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatu firstly it's my pleasure to be back here with you guys again not on the most joyous of occasions that we are talking about tonight and I was thinking of many things to talk about on the way here to get you to help this project you know I've learned something when it comes to business I'm a businessman by nature this is what I've been doing for a long time now it is not my business there's no business in this this is a way of life my businesses I run businesses martial arts schools retail businesses and one thing I've learned is that people are very reluctant to let go of money unless there is some emotional reason to do so so this is reality this is the human nature I studied psychology in in my secular studies and I've learned in business that if you want people to pay for something get them emotionally attached to it as soon as they're emotionally involved they will open up the wallets and empty it out even if they regret it later on you'll have a lot of people if you're really good at sailing what I've learned is if you're really good at sailing then you will have people who will come back regretting you're trying to get their money back the next day then you're good at what you do because you're able to convince them normally Muslims we don't try to come in get our money back so if I can get you emotionally involved then I could get you to fundraise but I hope the brother after me will do that because what I want to do is try to get us to understand what is sometimes not understandable get us to comprehend what is not comprehendible because when we look at the world today as the brother was beautifully saying before me for Muslims it's chaotic for a lot of the non-muslims it's chaotic but for Muslims ensure the world right now is chaotic we are as he said trampled on we are in horrible conditions no matter where we are in the West we have a bit more than a bit of luxury compared to a lot of the Ummah is going through and a lot of the questions I keep hearing from Muslims is why is all of this happening to us why does all of this have the brother spoke very clearly that it's a lot of it has to do with us our divisions and things of this nature but I also want us to take a step back for a moment Muslims are very good at pinpointing scenarios and becoming tunnel-visioned into looking only what's happening in the here and now not being able to take a step back for a moment and look at the big picture this was something the prophet alayhi salaatu wa salaam was was able to do he was able to step back and look at the bigger picture sometimes based on what hey they came from Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'ala sometimes based on the own hekima that Allah had given him and wisdom to see bigger pictures I want to explain to you a few instances of situations where it seemed if his things were very dark things were very unfortunate they look like there might be no way out for these individuals I'm going to talk about tonight but in the end of it all Allah brought forward the big picture we know very beautifully all us is know Quran McCormick's oral law that we planned in a lot plans our plans are always going to have some flaws to them why because we're human beings we're flawed our innate natures that we we're flawed that we're going to make mistakes even in our planning and then Allah says and he plans and Allah is the best of those who plan so sometimes we have to understand that we can make the best of plans as a human being I can make the best plans for my future for my children's future for my family's future we as an Ummah can come together and make the best plans to move forward even if we found some way to find unity we can make the best plans to move forward but at the end of the day Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'ala has a plan and that plan is perfect because it comes from he who perfect and sometimes that plan doesn't even make sense to us sometimes our plan is not right and so Allah interjects his plan into the scheme of things and we can't understand it sometimes it looks as if things are going a mess I'm trying my best but it's not working oh it's working you just don't see it it might be that your plan wasn't going to lead you to where you want it to be so Allah is rerouting the the sat-nav of your life he's rerouting you you were about to head into a lot of traffic and a lot ending you another way during the life of the prophet alayhi salaatu wa salaam when things became too hard in Mecca too hard in Mecca Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'ala allowed him to make hedger mälaren to make Hitler and we all know the very famous story he was surrounded his house was surrounded he escaped without them with Allah making them blind where they couldn't see him he walked right past them and he left with his best friend in this life his hadiyyah-lah boubakr and they left out of the city in Mecca and in the morning when they had realized the Prophet lays out to a sedan was gone it was actually early even a bit all the brought the old man was in his bed who by the way said that was the most beautiful night sleep he had ever had in his life they sent people to chase them down and there was one man in particular whom they hired who was the best of those who did that trackers his name was Sir Appa even Manik but oddly Allah and with the best of those trackers he could track anything so he said I'll find him no problem I'll find him so the Prophet later ought to a ceramic Abu Bakr on their way and they heard the horse hooves of Sirach Rehman Malik chasing them so they retired to a small cave up on the hillside in Mecca and if you've been to it you know it's it's it's a little climb it's a little steep climb up a hill and they hid in a cave that was only really big enough for two people and it really didn't conceal much if you did a little bit of investigation you'll find the people in that cave but this was this all they had and as Zurich was coming the prophet alayhi salat WA Salam a door out to Allah and soar up his horse fell into the same some get to the stand and got stuck and sharafa realized what's happening so he called out to muhammad o muhammad make door to a lot to release my horse and I won't follow you anymore I'll give up my chase so the Prophet released his horse in Soraka broke his word and started coming at them again so he make door eyes sunk in the sand again this happened a couple times and finally so off I said look just just make the earth that Allah gets me out of this I'll leave and I also miss guide anyone who comes along this way now the Prophet laces up to a ceramic caught out to Soraka and said something that calls her luck and I think that this man's lost his mind smells out of control he said o suratha how are you going to be on the day when the bracelets of kisara are presented to you as a booty from the believers from the Muslims mister oppas shaking his he's rubbing his head he's thinking what they just say this guy is by himself hiding in a cave everybody's looking for him to kill him he has no support he has nothing and he's sitting here telling me though I'm going to be given the bracelets of one of the greatest kings on the earth right now the greatest empires that the world has known this man must be out of his mind he's lost it this is when he thought he decided that this guy's nuts and he did they just they just couldn't realize what happened but then the rest of the men kids came and they started to approach the cave where the prophet alayhi salaatu wa salaam is and as they got close abu bakr became frightened abu bakr a is human nature kicked in because it looks like this plan is not working either Walker's thinking to himself is human mind his nature is saying yato su la la I love you to death but this plan doesn't look right they're gonna see us even if they look down at their feet they're gonna see us and the Prophet lace rat was ran as Abu Bakr he said Oh rubber Walker probably Allah and what do you think of two people in the third of them is Allah what do you think is going to be the outcome of two people whom the third of them is alone so Pamela and then he said something to him that I lost Hannah with the island safeguards for us in his book he said to him that Hasson in the law and that I know do not worry don't worry don't be afraid have no concern for Allah is with us and of course we know the story that the Meccans didn't see them and they were able to continue the Hydra and build an empire they would indeed surround the world the civilized world at one time later on after the prophets death Soraka before the Prophet did Soraka would become a Muslim he would enter into Islam then Abu Bakr skaffa came it was struggle they were fighting different elements within the UM of the people who apostate from Islam the people refused to pay zakah a lot of things happen then the Caliph of Omar came and Umar was able to conquer the Persian Empire and the bounty came into the Siddhartha and as Alma was going through it and distributing it a box was brought to him and he opened it up and in it was the bracelets of pizarra so immediately he said bring for me Soraka tell Soraka come to me tell Soraka come in Soraka came and her mother presented to him the braces of kisra saying that this is the fulfillment of the promise of rasoolallah said him to you and Soraka began to cry remembering his past remembering he was what he was once doing and now look at this Ummah the unmown was so affluent that the prices of kisara is sitting right in front of Soraka and he made him put him on you see so I couldn't understand what the police are at those that I was talking about Albert Walker couldn't even really see what was really happening but the plan of Allah was in full motion was in full motion sometimes we can't see it sometimes it doesn't seem like it's working but Allah Subhanahu WA to Ana has a plan let me tell you about another man named Duda laser we all know the wood there was a woman at his time there was a woman a his time who used to do knitting and she used to take that knitting every day to the market and sell it and get food enough to feed her children for that day one day she was on the way to the market and a bird came and swooped and took her knitting she had nothing left to feed her children so she went into the wood al AZM and she confronted him and she asked him is a large Esther is a lot unjust is a larger store is a lot unjust and dude is thinking what kind of question is this and he told her she told him what had happened that I feed my children every day off the knitting that I make and that's all I have today a bird a bird who was acting off of his fifth reform Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'ala came and took this knitting and took it away now I have nothing to feed my children so was a lot just or is he and just as she was saying this some men came in with huge bags of gold and they dropped it in front of the delays to them and they were foreigners they weren't known and though and they said to dude this is for you for the sake of Allah a sadhaka to whomever you think it should be distributed to and the wood is asking them what what what's what's the story here you know the god can be a story behind this why are you here with this large amount of money they said that we are merchants by trades and we were traveling across the sea and a huge storm came and broke the sail on our ship and we were just being tossed about in the ocean so we made dua to Allah that if he gets us out of this predicament then we will don't aim everything on the ship for the sake of him alone at that moment a bird came and dropped some yarn in materials and knitting that we were able to use to reconstruct our sail that brought us safely here to you so here we are fulfilling our oath to allah subhana wa ta'ala the woudl a said and looked at the woman and he asked her is a lot just or is Allah unjust you have a rub who is working for you on land and on sea is a lot just or is he unjust and he gave it all time you see sometimes the plan of Allah does it seem to be working sometimes it seems as if everything is against us sometimes we may even question the plan of Allah like yeah what why me what are you doing to me what what have I done to deserve this what has this unridden to deserve that travesty in the tragedy this is going through right now this is what we asked many times and I know we've all become susceptible to it at some point in life let me tell you the story about another man and that'll be it and we'll get to the point of some current issues there was a man during the time of our selleth named abu bakr al ansari rahim - la la la his he was also known as our deal medicine he was known as a very pious man of Mecca he was known for his tough walk he was a man who feared of hannover to Anna he was a man who tried to always distance himself between himself and I was anger this is what taqwa means to place a barrier between yourself and the anger of Allah Subhanahu WA to Anna one day he was out in the streets of Mecca and he's telling his own story of his life he said one day I was in the streets of Mecca I was hungry and I was looking for some food had me and nothing was poor miskeen and he said I found a bag with a very expensive pronet glistening but it didn't belong to him so he tied it up took it home for safekeeping in case the owner comes and he went back out in the streets looking for his food later on he heard a man calling out that he had lost a pearl necklace and he was offering a reward a large reward for whosoever would find it for him so Abu Bakr came to the man he said look I've found a necklace but you need to describe it to me so I can know whether this is yours or not he said the man described it perfectly so he went and gotten got it and gave it to him and the man was trying to pay him the reward but Abu Bakr was refusing because he sang to himself and to the man I did not do anything for this I didn't earn it I'm giving you back what belongs to you therefore I do not feel taking sustenance because of it and you know how we are as Muslims we argue back and forth no take it no I'm not taking it not taking it take it low eventually I will walk I just said no and he walked away refused I'm not taking this no I feel a loss hanging with her I keep with belongs to you later on Alba Walker said that he realized that he could not longer no longer live in Mecca he couldn't find a way in Mecca you couldn't find his sustenance he couldn't find work so he decided to get on the ship and go somewhere else is what Allah says if you can't make it somewhere else the earth is big go somewhere else so he got on a ship to go somewhere else and a big storm came and crashed the ship and many people on that ship died he said I was fortunately able to grab a piece of drift to it and the wind blew me and blew me and blew me to an island and when he got to that Island he looked for the people he couldn't find them so he saw that there was a Masjid he went and he sat down and began to recite before unn and his there I was known to be very beautiful and the people of this island started to hear this beautiful melodious recitation of Quran they went to see who it was and they found Abu Bakr in the Masjid reciting and they said to him you know how to recite the porunn beautifully will you teach us and our children how to do this and we will pay you and give you a place to live he agreed and they started to pay him he had a home and he did this for a while and then one day he was sitting in the Masjid reading some of the pages of the Quran that they had laying around in the message and they asked him you know how to read and write suggest I know how to read and write none of them know how to read and write they said teach us and our children how to read or write and we will increase your salary and pay you even more so they began to increase his salary pay him even more and he stayed with them for a while then came a time where he decided you know I've been here long enough when I move on to the next position in life more on somewhere else and they realized that he was going to leave and then I want him to leave so they said we have to keep him here so he devised a very good plan to keep him here they said look let's just get him married we get married he's going nowhere so there was a girl who was known to be one of the most beautiful pious from the most pious family girls that had just been orphaned she had recently been orphaned she had nobody so they tried to get him Meritor he refused and again the haggle back and forth yes no yes no yes and finally he gave him said ok I'll marry the girl then they can was arranged the girl was brought in and abu-bakr said as I started to look up from her feet and up and up and I got to her neck and his head dropped and he began to cry now the girl thought that it was because she was ugly so she started crying turned away and the people were shocked oh my godness pietistic barest this girl this is the best one we have and you've just you've just broken her heart he said it's no it's not because of that he said the reason I crying is because on her neck is a necklace that I recognized I found this necklace in the streets of Mecca one day and I gave it to a man and they started to shout allahu akbar allahu akbar allahu akbar they said her then her father was the owner of this necklace that you gave it to and we used to hear him talking about this man that he met in Mecca who was one of the most pious and righteous Muslims he had ever come across in his life and we used to hear him openly making dua to Allah for you to be married to his daughter and here you are and he got married to her and he had children and he became very affluent she died his children passed away but he ended up selling the necklace for a very large amount of money and he was explaining this as to how he became a very wealthy man in this place you see when abu bakr al ansari was being tossed about on that driftwood in the ocean I'm sure he couldn't understand the plan of Allah he didn't realize what was happening little did he know that even though he had a plan Allah also had another plan to answer that father's door and Abu Bakr was doing nothing but being led towards that destination but a loss of Hannah her with her honor so I will walk her had a plan than Allah had a plan and maybe Abu Bakr didn't see it but it came to be just the way it was meant to be you see that's that's how life is sometimes sometimes it doesn't look it's going right but Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'ala has a plan we look at what happened very recently in Mecca very recently in Mecca when the crane collapsed and brought part down of Maestro haddem on those people who died over a hundred people and I've seen on social media you know they blame everybody in the world you know first of all they blame the Saudi rulers and they blame moose and they blame that and even Saudi blames him in Aladdin company you know I mean for not securing the crane everybody had some blame and I'm sitting back thinking to myself as we're complaining I guarantee you those people whom allah subhanahu wata'ala chose on that day because i've seen many of the videos there were many people who died in the person right next to them didn't die these people were chosen and I guarantee you not a single one of them is complaining right now none of them are complaining why because allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala has chosen them and conferred a favour on them which if any of us were smart would wish that it could happen to us with beg Allah day and night that that could be an end that we could meet because not only did they die in the best place on this earth Masjid al-haram they died on the best day to die on a Friday which if you died on a Friday you're saved from the trial and torment of the grief not only that that they died but they died in a way upon which makes them sure had that the properly set up to us Adem said a wall falling on you and collapsing upon you is your Heat and they died during the best time of the year the best days of the year approaching upon them dillinger what more could you want as a human being as a Muslim too in your life and it wasn't as if they suffer they were there and then they were gone and while their bodies were being picked up off the ground their souls were already resting in green birds traveling through our Jenna where every wish and that night when their bodies were being laid to rest they were making their homes in lamps that hang off the arch of allah subhanahu wata'ala and every day allah speaks to them and asked them every day he asked those p people who are the Shuhada what do you want from me ask me and I will give you every day they respond we don't want anything and every day Allah ask again what do you want from me ask me and I'll give you and they respond we don't want anything until finally they all realized that Allah will not stop asking unless we give him an answer and they all say with one voice in unison oh Allah if you could give us anything that we would want it is that you would send us back to the world that we came from and let us die the same death again and again and again and again you see sometimes we don't look at the big picture but look at the big picture if Saudi rulers were to blame for it then I would be thanking them if that was my own son I'd be happy my son made it if that was my father my father made it I would be mad if I was I would be frustrated if I were the one standing next to them that I wasn't chosen I would think there's something wrong with my Eman you see sometimes we have to look at the big picture that this Ummah is suffering it's suffering absolutely it's suffering and we like to feel sorry for those who are suffering we like to look at them in with compassion the way that we should but sometimes we forget that the real people who might be suffering the real people who might be being tested the most are the ones who are going home tonight to sit on our luxurious couches with refrigerator ten feet away where we can go get anything you want to eat and turn on our big flat-screen TVs and late tonight in our nice warm comfortable beds maybe we're the one being tested the most maybe is that a lot loves those people in Syria so much maybe it is a lot loves those people of Palestine so much for all that they have struggled for to keep the house of Allah and the purity of the one of the most holy places on this earth maybe Allah loves them so much that he's putting them through all this hardship to only grant them the highest and highest and highest ranks of jannah in the next while we are sitting home on our luxurious couches maybe dying in the middle of our sleep to only be torment it's in the grave and test it on the day when we meet Allah so who's really winning here yeah I think about the big picture sometimes I don't consider myself a teacher unless you want to learn some martial arts like teach what I am is I like to be a psychologist when I come and stand in front of you and teach you how to think and retrain your thought process because one of the biggest problems with this Ummah today is the way that we think the way we think our thought process the way that we process information is completely different than the way the Companions processed information well the events that happen and I look at social media and I look at the world and I've been on every continent except Antarctica as no Muslims there yet global warming comes now we will guarantee you if they can be inhabitable we will find a way to inhabit it this is where Muslims are but I see how we respond to things are we've been programmed some way somehow our programming appears changed the way that we don't see things though the way that we should the Prophet laced up to asylum so things big he saw things from the right perspective the Companions saw things through the right lens now we cannot see past what's right in front of us and if it's not a faith thing as we we won't do anything but gripe and complain about it we'll do very little do very little and we will very surely rarely turn around and wonder what is my role in this what is it that I'm going to be questioned about because every single one of us are people who will be questioned you will have to give account for every single action of your life that you've done past the age of puberty you're going to have to find a reason why I did such and such and such and such and such and such it's all going to be written in your book what about this Ummah who's living in the West and lots of luxury even if even if you make minimum wage compared to those people you are living in luxury in luxury from seeing the stories of people who can't even feed their children and that's why they're leaving because the children are crying at night hungry and there's nothing to feed them the images of this little boy washing up on the sea washing up on the beach breaks my I'm a father I had three children to see that it's just it's it hurts but at the same time i know that allah subhanahu wata'ala did not want that boy to go through whatever it is he was about to go through so a lot took him home no country wanted him nobody would support him nobody cared about him at that moment except his parents who lost him so Allah said take him home a lot took him home so we have to ask what are we going to be questioned what did we do when we saw all of this happening when we saw all of this going on did we even make any effort any effort whatsoever we have to question ourselves now Amara even al khattab radhi'allahu and said become your own house of your own accountant in this life before the next life when the account is going to be taken from you when the accountant to be taken from you we have to learn to reprogram the way we think as I close out we have to learn to reprogram the way that we think we cannot change the world we take that right now we can't change the world I don't care how strong we may become we can't change the world I don't care how much money we were able to amass we can't change the world I don't care how strong our fortresses and military became we couldn't change the world with it unless Allah Hannah winter Ana willed it to be so it's impossible I don't care how many protests you have I don't care how many petitions you sign I don't care what big group you gather if Allah Azza WA JAL has not placed it within his plan for you to be successful you will fail again and again and again and again and again so if this Ummah is humiliated right now it's because I lost I know what Allah has willed it to be so when it's for a reason this is where we keep stop thinking we keep saying the utmost humiliated but I and what I hear that I keep thinking what's the reason this Ummah doesn't have unity what's the reason this Ummah doesn't have strength what's the reason gotta get to the core of the problem and the majority of is because of what goes on right up here in the mind of every single Muslim we've forgotten where to put our priorities and where to put our priorities our priorities or eschewed I'm going to give you one last verse that you all know you all know this verse and you heard this verse if you recited this verse any is the plan for success whatever you want to do whatever you want to do a lot of Hana what Alice says well my get up in law whosoever fears allah whosoever has taqwa for Allah and as I told you taqwa is a barrier between you and Allah is punishment if I were going to walk over some shards of glass right now if there was glass all over the parking lot I would make sure I put on shoes or sandals this is tough walk because it would prevent me and protect me from that glass on the on the road taqwa is you placing that barrier by any means necessary between you and the punishment of Allah should hand over to Anna if it means doing more good that's taqwa if I mean staying away from evil that's taqwa whatever it is that keeps you away from the punishment of Allah and Jahannam that's considered top-1 so Allah says whoever has this tough work for him allahumma Claudia Allah will make for them away you see you don't have to worry about the way you see this what Muslims get so caught up in the plan the way what are we going to do no no Allah says don't worry about the way you fear me and I will make the way I'll show you the way when there is no way I'll open the door when there wasn't a door there I will create means for you like the man who killed 100 people and I lost shrunk the earth to getting him forgiveness I wish I had the time to go to the story there was a man who killed so many people and I lost to Hannah with her Allen made angels measure something the earth for him to see what he was closer to one point to another and he was closer to the point which would have gotten him punished but I lost haven't I shown the dimensions in the earth Allah could it just made him die closer to where he was going but no Allah wanted to show us how he can do things you put a little effort Allah can change the very physics of the universe on your behalf but we we keep thinking that we can do it we can know we can't do anything la hawla wa la quwwata illa billah there is no capabilities there is no power there is no ability except but by that which Allah gives show you don't stand unless Allah allows you to stand you don't breathe unless Allah allows you to breathe you don't walk unless Allah gives you the cave walk in at any moment you can take it all from you this is what we have to learn as Muslims that our success our failures our makes or breaks everything is reliant on allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala decision in our life everything there is nothing we can do about it except work within the parameters to do the best that we can follow that's it and then I lost of hallouwe tata says well yours oka home and I will provide give you wrists from places you didn't even imagine it could come Allah says I will open doors of risk for you that you couldn't even comprehend that they can exist like a small band of backwards desert dwelling atoms conquering the two greatest nations in the world within a generation unheard-of Allah says he'll make away he'll make away and then I lost Hannah whatever says woman get to welcome allah and whosoever placed their trust on allah follow us then he becomes sufficient for them he becomes enough for them he becomes enough for them tell you one last final story and I'll close and hopefully I will set the scene for you to do what you need to do tonight with his brother when the Battle of the trench took place during the time of the prophet alayhi salaatu wa salaam in ten thousand had surrounded mecca over ten thousand bands and bands at surrounded mecca they built a trench off of the advice of salomon our Farsi is something he had seen done in Persian warfare and the trench was not a trench that surrounded the whole city if any of you've ever been to medina and you've been to message said ah then the parking lot of Masjid sama is where they dug that trench just was just a trench that was the only exposed area for them to be able to get into the rest was all Mountain and volcanic rock you're just not going to not going to get an army over it very easily so they definitely strange and the prophet alayhi salaatu wa salaam told everyone look get ready to defend yourself if you need to if you're if you're able to defend yourself do it and when they dug this trench the hypocrites of medina were thinking to the self oh my goodness this is not enough what are you doing this this isn't gonna work for loan there's 10,000 people over there and by days they can bring more and more and more they're honest so they ran into the Muslims and told them don't you know that a great army is gathered against you out there and you've took this little trench and you think it's going to be okay this is all you've got this is your grand scheme and plan we're done in order to make them feel and give up but a loss of Hana home with their aunt I said it only made their Eman increase see us we'd get scared and fear and frightened oh this is yeah you're right that's not we'd be fighting with each other no no we need to give up no no no it's car war nothing's not going to work we need to do something else we would be fighting while they're out truck we'd probably have killed each other before they ever got into the city us this Ummah now we would have done ourselves in arguing over it but the Companions they are their Eman only increased and they looked at those hypocrites and they said Russell Manolo any more on Keeley a large sufficient for us yes we know that trench is not enough no you think we know that that trench will never bear find our way over it that's not enough but Allah is sufficient Allah is enough and he's the best of protectors that trench is not going to protect us that not enough numbers of us to protect us but Allah is sufficient and he is the best of those who can protect us when they woke up in the morning they found no one no one left a loss of Hannah with her and had implemented his plan bringing his army in UCL a--'s Army isn't always dressed in fatigues in battle gear and weaponry Allah subhana WA Ta'ala has things that you don't understand that work for him in the creation works for a loss of Hannah with the ANA he sends in his army and routed them and Allah became sufficient for them but what caused that action to happen what caused that plan from a loss of Hannah with Ali to be into motion was their taqwa was their reliance and trust in a law that allows enough and we know Allah is enough and we have no doubt about that plan this needs to be the Ummah of 2015 that we don't have enough unity with me we might not even have enough money we might not even have enough knowledge we might not have enough piety but Allah is enough for us if we can do our best to seek the pleasure of Allah and everything that we do then I have no doubt no doubt that a loss of Hanna home with Allah will move mountains on our behalf no doubt whatsoever in my mind because Allah says Allah has me noon they see believers are successful they are successful that's a guarantee from Allah whether you decide to believe and that and live like that or not is up to you Allah has already made it cemented firm in his word that you are successful we need to wake up we need to stop living like we're the most humiliating people on the earth we need to stop believing that we need to stop giving in to that that you should be ashamed of who you are that you should be afraid of who you are that you should be hiding who you are then you should feel downtrodden then you should have that phone on your face every day they usually be worried about them nothing on your door every day stop believing that hype because at the end of the day we know that I I mean I believe therefore whatever happens to me is part of a lost beautiful wise plan and the only thing I'm going to do is trust in Him who planned it and try to worship worship him to the best of my abilities and do good what the opportunity presents itself and try to stay away from evil when that opportunity presents itself that's all you need to do and Allah Subhanahu WA to Anna can take care of the rest you have an opportunity tonight I know the brother is going to come up and he's going to do some stuff and he asked if I could help when it got a little bit low but I'm not gonna even give him the chance to let it get a little bit long we're gonna do what he needs to do tonight this brother when he comes up we're going to do what he needs to do tonight and I've taken a little bit longer because I want to make his job easy I want to make his job easy tonight you have a chance tonight to be like one of two people one of two people there was two companions of the prophet alayhi salatu was-salam one of them can't really calm a companion but there was two people at the time of the prophet alayhi salaatu wa salaam in medina and after i say this if he's not able to easily do his job that i i can't do anything more I've done my best there was a orphan at the time of the Prophet who had some property and he wanted to build a wall on his property but there was a tree that was blocking his wall and this tree belonged to his neighbor whose name was Abu Baba he went to a Balu Baba and he asked him could he have that tree to put it on his property and a bluebottle refused he asked him to sell it to him so that he can incorporate it into his property a Balu Baba refused and said you're not getting that tree so the orphan went and complained to the prophet alayhi salaatu wa salaam and he called abbulu baba straight away this is a man profits or asylum at this time had so many things going on so many things to deal with but it shows you the love he had for not only the orphans but for those who really couldn't have anybody else to defend himself he was their defender he was their protector so he called a blue bhava in and he said yeah below ever give this orphan the tree man well what is this give him that tree he said no he said look sell it to him name your price the Prophet Sawa's Selim could have been asked a ridiculous price and I'm sure he would have found a way to come up with you to fundraise for that tree and I would have ever said it's not for sale in fs read my lips not for sale so the Prophet laser act was said and thought for a moment he said I'm gonna offer you a golden deal golden deal what if I tell you I will promise you a tree in Jannah for that tree you give that orphan that tree and I promise you you'll have a tree in Jannah do you know what trees in general like then I like these trees out here their trunks are made of gold and silver their leaves are softer than silk and the fruit that comes off of them is softer than butter and it's sweeter than honey and if you have a tree in general guess what that means what does that indicate you be an Jenna there's there's no one that's going to be a Jahannam forever in eternity looking across the expanse between Jenna and and Jahannam saying to their mates in hell you see that tree way way over there that's my tree yeah it's a word like that if you have a tree in Jannah this signifies you'll be in general so the man is being offered paradise for a tree for you bus you have all I'll go get you 20 trees now right now guess what a bluebird I said no keep your tree and I'll keep my tree he started to walk away so the prophet Lisa dr. Saddam was very sad because the orphan began to cry and that pain the prophet Lisa up to him there was another companion that was sitting around watching this and his name was Abu doctor one of the allahu and this is the other person in the story a blue bob is the first ever that's a second I would never owned a property in medina that was famously known huge orchard of all many of these trees hundreds and hundreds of these trees and his house so he went to the Prophet lay strapped to a sedan and he said ya Rasul Allah is this deal transferable meaning if I can get that tree from Abu lubob and give it to the orphan can I get that tree and you see this is how the Companions thought this one trying to explain to you they thought differently he saw an opening even if it was a slight crack and he jumped on it he jumped on it and the prophet alayhi salaatu wa salaam said yeah that deals transferrable if you can get that tree you can have that tree in general so he went to Abu Dhabi lubob he said hold on a little bit let me me holla at you for a minute business here he said if you heard of my garden we heard of my orchard and I Bulova said of course there's not a person who lives in the city as I heard of your orchard I mean are you mocking me you know I got I'm not fighting over one tree and you got hundreds of them a you know what and and what he said what if I told you and Abu Dhaka dad could have bartered he could have said I'll give you five trees for that one tree 10 15 20 50 100 until he gave it but the believer when they see something on the line like what was on the line right there but there's no there's no time for that Abu Dharr was not going to take any chance of this conversation ended before he got a yes or no from this guy so he did what he could do by going on in he said what if I give it all to you for that tree give you everything the house the trees everything the property everything's in it you can have all of it for that tree and I'm Malou Baba's shocked what you must be out of your mind are you serious and with a duster I'm dead serious shake my hand it's yours so Abu loo Baba said look everybody round look look witnesses here a Buddha there has offered me his entire orchard and his property for this tree and I am accepting the offer they shook on it done deal now a velu baba has this beautiful home orchard everything a Buddha he only owns one tree now that's all he possesses in his life and he turns to the orphan and he says it's yours now he owns nothing nothing nothing but he has to go home now and tell his wife and children that they're homeless he didn't text her you know it's ok if I give away everything we own he didn't confer with her you know could I can I put us on the streets no and for what a tree in Jena and guess whose tree it is that's a Buddhist tree that's not his wife's tree she has to make her own way to Jenna and she makes it yeah no problem no but for now that's his tree see there's some certain things that Muslims are allowed to be selfish about Jenna is one of them look you want to come with me I'm going if not hey so he goes home and he stands outside of his property on the other side of the wall but that wasn't a nut job either he wasn't he wasn't going to go face to face with his wife I don't know if you brothers were home tonight and told your wife look we gave her everything was sleeping in the streets of Birmingham tonight pots and pans come flying you know I mean so he stood on the other side of the wall and he called out yeah um dad come out listen to what he said he said what is translate as I have sold this property I have made a transaction for this property he didn't say I gave it away and I donated it I made a transaction you see this the way the Companions thought that business with Allah was business yeah you had a dinner Amma no halodule commodity gelatin to Jean community Nellie it was business with Allah o you who believe can i guide you to a business transaction that will avoid you a painful punishment so they saw this business real business this was this was man business so she called and she said oh abu doctor beautiful what did you get for so with a lot of money he said I I received the tree in paradise now hey brothers like I said if you were home and said this tonight I don't know what happened but this woman was a woman who thought properly she understood what would just happened she called back and she said I would act now what a profitable trade what a profitable she wasn't angry she understood her husband just did something that guaranteed him a ticket to Jenna she couldn't be happier she went and she got her children and started taking the sticks and rocks and dates out of their pockets and she said let's go for this does not belong to us anymore she didn't say it belong to Abu Baba she said this belongs to Allah it's belongs to Allah now and they left so let me tell you something and the day of Quiana Avila Baba was also found to be one of the hypocrites later on he would be known as to be one of them in i-15 on the day of judgement even if hypothetically a Balu Bella died as a believer he would still regret that tree he would regret that day seriously regret that tree on the day of Tianna and you're still regretted but Abu Dada won't regret any of those trees he lost nothing if anything he wish he could come back and give him again and again and again and again and again so you have a choice tonight you can be like abbulu Baba who was within his rights to keep what belong to his he didn't have to give it up he didn't have to you don't have to give anything tonight nobody is forcing you you can keep it and go home with it belongs to you or you can become like Abu Dada and realize the opportunity that is being presented to you tonight because when anyone asked you to give for the sake of Allah see it as an imitation from the Lord of all creation it's not me asking or this brother asking this is Allah asking from you and Allah says in the Quran okay who is it that will lend to Allah a goodly loan one of the Companions said o prophet of Allah is Allah asking us for load he said yes allows asking you for a loan so see it tonight as an invitation from the creator of the heavens and the earth for you to do something good for yourself and in turn benefit someone else decide who you're going to be tonight just like Roger and Barak alofi Kumu ceremony c'mon boy you better care to
