la ilaha illallah Muhammad al-amin alladhina amanu aminu Salah hot what I was all happy what I was all the sub I mean yellow banana mean in today's brief foot by inch Allah Allah I was I admit that before coming here I was extremely perplexed many of you don't know and some of you do I'm visiting here from the United States and I give hope Bob pretty much every week all over the country in the United States but this is the first time I've had the opportunity to speak and give a hug by in particular I'm feel very honored to give us Allah in the Muslim world this is the first time I'm actually speaking in the Muslim world as particularly on the auspicious and honorable occasion of the hood but it's a big responsibility and I've been thinking a lot about what message I can share with you in these few minutes that I have with you but I've decided to and realize something that really the message that Muslims need no matter where they are in the world is the same and that's part of the beauty of Islam is that the reminder the advice the counsel that you need and that I need it doesn't differ from where we come from in the world and that's what makes our religion one it makes it universally relevant so I want to share something with you I knew I realized there are people in the audience that are far more knowledgeable than I will ever be and there are people in the audience that may not know a lot it's also possible that you're sitting in the audience so I want to give you something in these few minutes insha'Allah who Ta'ala that's a reminder first and foremost for myself I want to be able to benefit myself as I speak but I also want to be able to benefit every last one of you that is here and obviously this beautiful occasion of jhamora Allah Azza WA JAL describes it in the Quran and he says fossil addict Leela rushed to the remembrance of Allah in other words remembrance the idea of remembering something is that you don't get new information you're told something you already knew but it's reinforced so our Deen teaches us that even if you're not learning something new even if you're told something from before that you're reminded of it it is still beneficial it still benefits you and that's actually even true in psychology there's a student who has to take an exam maybe his exam is on Monday but on Sunday he's playing video games so his friend comes and tells him man you have an exam and he goes I know I know but for the reminder and he stops playing the game and he starts studying for his exam he knew there's an exam but the reminder helped him anyway for that get far enough ahead Nicola I not the cotton ferrule what meaning reminder benefits believers so the reminder I wanted to share with you are some things from it is the reminder that all of us give ourselves every time we make Salah I want to talk to you about a few reminders from the beginning of surat al-fatihah just a few reminders for myself and all of you because obviously if we don't have a relationship with this surah then we can't possibly have a relationship with the quran and there's a reason allah put this surah in the beginning of the quran it's a lot way of introducing himself to us the first three ayat of the surah depending on which opinion you go with I'll just share the opinion that I'll come to realize the first ayah even though there's another legitimate opinion but alhamdulillah he rabbil alameen rahman al rahim in maliki yawmi deen these three ayat are allah comprehensively introducing himself this is Allah introducing himself to all of humanity if a non-muslim I live in Texas if a non-muslim came to me and said tell me about your Allah who is this a lot of yours what do you what can you tell me about him I would tell him that I would explain the first to the ayat of Salutin fatiha why because if I try to introduce a lot of him in my way I don't know what what kind of job I will do but Allah decided that all of humanity should be introduced to him with these words they should get to know him through these words and they begin with alhamdulillah and subhanAllah while hamdulillah we are the people of alhamdulillah what does that happen in that mean it's basically even though we can talk about it for hours just a brief explanation it is two things alhamdulillah is two things one part of it is that you thank Allah thanks is for Allah the second part of it is appreciation appreciation praise is for Allah two things thanks and praise there are two separate things Almudena on the one hand a shooked on the other hand there are two different things now let's first understand the difference between these two things you can see a beautiful building and you will praise it but you will not thank it you will see a you will see an amazing athlete he plays football they scored an amazing goal you will praise the athlete but you will not thank the athlete you'll see a beautiful car you'll praise the car but you won't thank the car and sometimes the opposite is the case there are some people you have to think even though you will never praise them that happens to Allah Azza WA JAL for example describes that the Muslim has to be grateful to his parents no matter what even if your parents are mushrik you have to be grateful to your parents initially while you Ali take well in Jogja Dhaka Allah and - Shaniqua be my life's attica be here even if they're struggling against you to do shark they want you to leave your iman and you still have to be grateful to them you will not praise their ship but you will still thank them so sometimes in life you can have praise without thanks and sometimes in life you can have thanks without praise I'll give you another example of thanks without pray so it becomes clear you have the case of faroan lana allah he whether he liked it or not he raised musa alayhis salam in his castle and musa alayhis salaam many years later came back to him and he actually reminded musa alayhis salam saying adam Norbeck afina walidah well a pista phenomena Marika Sinan didn't you live many years here didn't you spend didn't we raise you as a newborn in this house he is reminding musa alayhis salaam knows of his favour and obviously when someone does you a favor you owe them thanks so even musa alayhis salam acknowledges the favour and he does thank him he says what ilk annuitant ammu knew her Alea a tariff he admitted yes that is a favor you did for me when you admit someone's done you a favour you're thanking them he thanked even for a loan even though he will never ever praise him so you can thank someone without praising them and you can praise someone without thanking them when we say alhamdulillah then we are saying that we praise Allah for whatever he's doing whatever he's doing is awesome it's great it couldn't be better it's perfect no complaints and after we praise Him we are also thanking him that he did it there are people sitting outside today you some of you are the air conditioning in the hall is not enough for you yeah man is so hot and the first thing that should come in your mind as a Muslim is al hamdulillah it's hot alhamdulillah you know what that means thank Allah it's hot and I praise a lifetime it's a different way of thinking it's not like anybody else there are other people who believe in God believe me I know I know by me people of all religions there are other people who believe in God but what they don't have the first thing they don't have is alhamdulillah and some Muslims they don't understand that hamdulillah so sometimes they're like man I don't get paid enough whatever alhamdulillah you're not really saying alhamdulillah you're complaining saying alhamdulillah hey how's it going with your family ER and hamdulillah that's not a hamdulillah al hamdulillah from the bottom of your heart you're grateful for all the all the things that are going wrong you're finding there are so many things that are right if you're feeling hot at least you're not feeling sick there are so many other things that could be wrong with you you know if your car has a transmission problem at least it doesn't have a big engine problem there are so many other things that are going right we are people of al hamdulillah you know what that means we're constantly grateful we're constantly positive if we understood alhamdulillah we would never be depressed the Muslim cannot be depressed you'll find today in the oume people complain about the state of the Muslims we complain about you know the ignorance of the Muslims or the corruption within the Muslims and we complain and we complain and we complain I tell you allah azzawajal is the one who changes our circumstances all we need to do is turn to Him and say alhamdulillah we have to be positive we have to be a people of positivity that's the first thing a lot told us about himself what did he tell us next about himself he said Robert I love me now the word rub in the English translation of the word they often use the word lord lord of the worlds the word lord is actually pretty inaccurate to describe the word rub for many reasons the English word Lord you know I mentioned for I come from Texas we are in the southern part of the United States there are a lot of churches it's called the Bible Belt okay so there are a lot of huge Christian community every other radio station is a Christian radio station and they use the word Lord all the time but when they see when they use the word Lord they're thinking of a solid 'his Adama Avila right so the word Lord because of the Christians because the Christian literature actually has Christian connotations that's the first problem with it well in America for example when somebody uses the word Lord the first thing that comes in their mind is actually Christianity that's a problem the second problem with the word Lord is people don't understand that word anymore people don't use it's an old English word it's not a new English word the kids that are sitting in the audience here they don't hear the word Lord they hear the word Lord and they think I don't know Lord of the Rings where is that from Lord they don't understand the word Lord it's not common practice word so what is it what is a closer word it's actually master the word rob the Arab defines it as al Malik one more up b1 name William was Syed it has a complex definition but at the essence of the word is master master and when you think of master the opposite of master is slave so if Allah calls himself master then he's necessarily calling us slaves that's what he's doing the essence the summary of the entire Quran my teacher used to say is if you can understand that a lie as your master and you can accept that you are his slave you understand the Quran and if you cannot accept that you do not understand the Quran so let me explain a little bit what that means what does it mean to be a slave what does it mean to accept a lie as a master the difference between a free person and a slave is very simple a free person does whatever they want they can eat whatever they want they can look at whatever they want but a slave before he does anything what does he have to do he has to ask the master can I do that can I eat this can I go there he has to constantly go and ask the master a free person gets to do it has all the choices all the choices in front of it but the slave doesn't if there's a free person and a slave sitting at a table there's food in front of them the free person is eating and the slave is waiting when the master says I can eat I will eat and the master I will look at this food I'll look at the chicken and then I'll look at the master the master say yeah you can eat that okay okay I can eat the chicken you know he'll wait because you have every choice you make you will turn back to the master Allah calls himself master and this is also very powerful for another reason in the word master and in the word slave there's a negative connotation in human history there has been slavery and in slavery people are humiliated the person who's a slave is humiliated and they cannot wait to be free they want to get rid of their master when you think of you know for example slavery in the United States for example those the people that the Africans that were enslaved couldn't wait to be free they fought for their freedom and they don't have love for their master they only have hate for their master they have a resentment towards their master and sometimes that resentment even after you become free there will be centuries that go by you will still hate the people that enslaved you from before so when you think of slavery you don't think of love you think of hate you don't think of praise and you don't think of gratitude you don't think of praising your master not genuinely you don't think of thanking your master you hate that but you know what Allah calls himself master but before he called himself our master he told us that all praise belongs to him and all thanks belongs to him no other master will have a hamdulillah there could be other masters there could be other masters and they will have slaves but their slaves will never thank them and praise them genuinely like Elias thanked in his praise and there could be other masters but they never take the slaves never come to the master and say hey I want to be your slave can I be your slave please could you put some chains on my hands please I'd love that nope slaves always come by force they're never willingly coming to slavery this master is deaf he's not forcing any of you into his slavery he's a famine chef a human woman shot off a lake for whoever wants to come they're welcome whoever wants to go go ahead Rasta just believe it's your choice what kind of master is this he gives the choice to the slaves and even after he gives the choice the slave comes back and says no no I want to be your slave iya cannot boo do we tell him ourselves you were ready we're ready to be your slaves we're ready the worship only you there's a hamdulillah he rabbil alameen now this is a lie introducing himself as a master but then he gives what I want to spend most the most time on I know what my time is short with you the most time on I want to spend on these this next ayah Allah Allah he and I think the one of the most difficult challenges in translating the Quran is translating I act like a Rahman al Rahim they have an ocean of wisdom in them and a translator can only use three or four words to communicate what Allah has said that can that takes the MUFAs said 12 20 pages or the mufasal' might write a book on just a rahman al rahim and the translator only has one sentence to do that job so it's impossible but at least some things you should appreciate about about ar-rahman ar-rahim this is a little bit of a difficult subject so I would ask you to try to pay extra attention in chat about Allah - in order to get the benefits from this discussion the word of Rahman in the Arabic language actually means three things I know they say the most beneficent the most merciful I'm sure you've read that translation before or the most merciful the most kind and other variations of that but that doesn't really you don't really understand what the difference between these two things is so let's discuss it in a little more depth the word ar-rahman and ar-rahim have something in common both of them before I tell you the three things about Allah mine both al-rahman al-rahim have something in common they have the word Rama in common the word Rama actually does not mean mercy mercy is not a good translation of Rama either because left my includes in it care and love and consideration the realm of a mother when a mother is when a woman is pregnant her womb her please call ahem and why is it called mohombi cuz the baby is taken care of from all the sides the rent is paid the food is covered if there you know all the problems if there is a problem the mother will have it the child will not have it the child is completely taken care of from all angles and even if the mother hat is having some trouble the child won't know he'll have no idea Allah as I wasn't when he describes himself as al rahim he's telling us that he has covered us entirely in his love in his mercy in his in his his blessing in his care he's taking care of you and me all the time but now let's talk about the word rahman in particular when allah is love and Allah is care and a Las mercy and the laws help is extreme it's not normal its extreme then you use a man the Anna TSE a little mobile arrives called in Arabic it's used when something is extreme it's not normal it's unusually loving excessively loving excessively caring that's all rough man that's the one that one one thing about it the second thing about it one it's extreme the second that it's happening right now you know you say about somebody this person is patient I have a friend I have a patient friend does that mean they are being patient right now no that means they have the quality of patients maybe they're angry right now I don't even know so you can give somebody a quality but it doesn't mean that that quality is obvious right now like if I call somebody generous I call somebody generous does that mean they're spending money right now no that doesn't mean that it just means they have that quality when we call a rock man when we call Allah Allah man we're not just saying that he's loving and that he's merciful and that he's kind and that he's caring and he's extreme in doing all of that we are saying that he's doing all of that when right now he is being a rock man to me and he's being a rock man to you it is extreme and it is immediate it is extreme and it is it's happening right now now after this the third meaning of a responded three things it's extreme it's immediate and the third one's a little bit scary the Arabic language has certain patterns so when someone is thirsty you can say outshine someone's hungry you can say Johan someone's angry you can say hot bun and someone's extremely loving and merciful you say Rockman right it's on this pattern but this pattern actually means something that is not permanent it's not permanent ouch Sean is thirsty is someone thirsty permanently no Johan is hungry someone hungry permanently no bond is angry is somebody angry permanently sister don't raise your hand I know about your husband don't raise your hand it's okay it's not permanent it anger wears off al-rahman actually means somewhat Allah is loving you and he's taking care of you and he's extreme in doing so right now but don't think that it is permanent and I'll explain that in a second but these three things I want you to remember extreme extreme happening right now and not permanent now let's turn to our Rahim it also has to do with loving care but it has two qualities this word has two quality al Rahman had three qualities about him has two qualities the two qualities of autumn are it is always it's some sofa it's always that is different from the first word because the first word was temporary this one is permanent and the second of this is Asifa is an adjective is something that is not necessarily obvious it's not necessarily happening right now like if I say to you you are like I mentioned before you are patient or you are funny that doesn't mean you're telling me a joke right now you just have a good sense of humor it's not coming out right now it's inside you but it's not outside of you right now so al Rahim is something that is not active it's a quality but it's not active it's there so somebody says my mother is very loving right that loving doesn't mean she's always loving it just means she has that quality that's whatever he means now the beauty of these ions is that if Allah only said a rough man if he only said and then the mercy of Allah would be extreme it would be immediate but it would not be permanent he said al rahim immediately after he made it permanent if he said only a rahim the mercy would not be extreme because of him is not extreme about Marty's extreme and it wouldn't be immediate so he put both of them together so we know that today right now Allah will take care of me and tomorrow today Rockman tomorrow of him if not Abbas for the allahu ta'ala anhu was asked he was asked what is a honda Rahimi he said a rough man is for the people of this world and the vehemence for the astara it's so powerful because he understood this world is temporary and the next world is permanent so he said al Rahman is this world Allah he was the next world or else upon Allah the Sahaba understood the Quran and so immediately they understood these things and they knew how to how to process them but now let's give you a simple example to help you appreciate once more just some things about a rahman al rahim you know somebody and let me give you an example some of you you have jobs and maybe you get paid on Thursday you're waiting for your paycheck on Thursday you and your boss is in traffic and I know the traffic and cut off your boss is in traffic and you got to go home at 3 o'clock and it's 2:35 and he's not here and you need your paycheck because you gotta pay the rent you have to pay the electricity bill you got to put gas in the car you know you got things to do and you have no money so you gotta wait for him so now you're getting worried he's not here to 35 there's to 40 to 45 he's still not here and you're your employee your friend comes and tells you don't worry the boss will be here he's reliable he has a good quality he's dependable he's reliable you're like I know he's dependable brother but I wish he was being dependable right now I don't need that quality inside him I needed to be active right now somebody's having a hard time and you tell him Allah is merciful I know I know a less merciful but I need his mercy when right now allah azza wajal knows when people have a problem they don't worry about the future they worry about right now if you are really hungry if you come home really hungry and your wife says to you and you haven't seen the food yet you don't even smell it and your wife says to you so what do you think we should eat next week you say lady I am dying right I don't care about next week feed me right now I don't care about tomorrow and then she gives you the food and she takes care of your now and then you look at her and say so what do you want to eat next week then you worry about tomorrow when your immediate problem is taken care of only then you can think about tomorrow this is the nature of the human being we want things to be taken care of right now and the moment are right now is taken care of we start worrying about the future if you don't have money to pay the right you're worried about that right now the second you pay the rent you start worrying about next month that's you that's your nature allah azzawajal says I will take care of you right now with our earth man and I will take care of your future with al rahim allah we are we are wrapped up in the love and the care and the mercy of allah but there's a problem and in these few minutes that I have left with you I want to share with you this is a big problem it's a big problem I see this problem in America and I'm also seeing it here I was realistic before I came here we're a global world that is the problem of America you know Muslim youth in America are the same as the problems of Muslim youth in Qatar or in the bay or in Saudi or in Pakistan or in Egypt the youth have the same problems you have the problem of some kids saying some young people singing even older people saying I know it's Haram but Allah is so merciful man he's like oh my lover he I know it's come on buddy come on unless not gonna he's gonna punish me for that he's gonna take it easy on me I want to help you understand this problem because Allah described his love and His mercy with such extreme in a such an extreme way some people might try to take advantage of it some people might say it's just a little bit of drugs it's not that much I just do it like twice a week and I don't do it on Friday and I stopped all of ramadhan I stopped I don't drink a single you know bottle of liquor and Roma Bahn but other than that sometimes you know it's okay Raheem I'll make all right this year it'll be fine you know they figure out they can just do eke around things look at her on things do hard on things and it's okay I'll I'll take care of it Allah will forgive I want to give you an example to help you understand this one of my earliest Jobs was I used to teach at a school young kids these are seven year old kids second third grade kids and I thought that these kids are going to love me I will tell them stories I will make jokes with them I will jump up on the desk and I will jump around and entertain them and I will scare them and all kinds of things these kids used to love me I used to go in there and tell jokes and tell stories and they used to be loud the principal used to come in and say what's going on here and I used to say sorry sorry sorry will calm down I did this for a whole week with these kids they absolute I used to walk into class and the kids used to clap but then after a week I go back into class and I say okay guys open up chapter five nobody opens up chapter five they're all looking at me tell us a story tell us another joke and kids are talking to each other there are people jumping around there's a kid who's got a pencil in his hand and he's writing his name on the wall and he's looking at me and he's writing it looking at me again and he's writing it you ever see that happen and then his friend says I think he sees you he says it to him and he goes I know but he's a nice guy and he keeps going they think I'm merciful they think I'm kind so they figure hey this is a nice teacher we should do whatever we want when Alana describes his mercy and his love some slaves of Allah and they try to take advantage like a lie is so merciful no problem I'll give you one more example before I conclude this is I haven't introduced a lot you yet al-hamdu lillahi rabbil alameen about man everything is too I add there are three ayat that introduced us to Allah but before I get to the third ayah I want to give you a simple lesson imagine there's a man and he has a slave so this guy has a slave and he tells the slave you can do whatever you want here's the field he owns a field that you can do whatever you want in this field you can eat whatever you want go wherever you want just don't go on the other side there's a line he drew a line in the chalk not even offense it's just chalk just don't go out the other side so the slave is happy you could do whatever he wants and one day the slave is close to the border and he falls and he falls on the wrong side and he immediately looks at the master staring at him and she's sorry sorry I was a mistake and the master doesn't say anything no problem he doesn't say anything so he gets up he dust himself off he's okay next day he pretends to fall and then sorry sorry sorry sorry the master doesn't even get up doesn't even look angry he says this is pretty good I mean I mean he told me not to go on the other side but I've gone twice and I didn't get in trouble this must mean it's okay some Muslim says I I had I had some Khurram substances and no lightning struck from the sky Allah did not send like an ax-wielding from the sky chopping my tongue off when I lied should be okay Allah is okay with it you know you try to earn some money the wrong way you look up at the sky oh nothing happened I'm okay I could do some more so this slave starts going on the other side over and over and over again and a whole year goes by now he spends most of his time on the other side so the slate the master calls him after one year he calls him and he says so how's it going pretty good pretty good you're pretty kind love it and he says listen remember when I told you you shouldn't go on the other side because yeah I remember well I've decided to punish you for that but I will punish you forever I've been counting every time you went I will punish you for every single time you went but I will punish you all at the same time I was holding off I didn't want to punish you right away I wanted to punish you eventually I mean it was your choice I didn't stop you from going I just said don't go and I told you there will be consequences but I've decided to get you right now with all of it all at the same time one year's worth of transgressions this is Judgment Day the human being things you can get away with whatever you're doing is no problem I did something bad yesterday nothing bad happened today I got I should we do diggin today I could do it again tomorrow nothing's gonna happen it's all good but allah azzawajal says he puts the picture he balances the picture he says Miley Chioma Dean he's the master of he's the owner of the day on which perfect judgment will be executed everybody will get exactly what they deserve he's the master of that day too so as I leave you in this hot spot I want to share with you that Allah balanced two things on the one hand he is extremely loving extremely merciful and on the other hand if you don't if you take advantage of his love and His mercy then he will judge you too on Judgment Day there are only two kinds of people people who get judgment who get accounted who get audited that the records are checked and the people who Allah doesn't check their records he just lets them go I want another story before I let you go I as soon after 9/11 in America there was a lot of security at the airports and of course they gave Muslims special treatment when they travel right so we had take your shoes off and go through extra security and pat-downs on all of it it's not like that anymore the first couple of years were pretty bad so one time I was travelling and nobody gave me extra security I travel like a regular person I went through the metal detector and then it does a stir sir step on the side does give you an extra special treatment because your slim nothing so I was surprised I looked at the security guard and I said you know I don't get it but immediately the ayah came in my mind I saw Bonnie I see Allah Allah as elegent describes on Judgment Day there will be people who will have their book in their right hand for so far you her son what he's having a sierra am a man who th acaba who be Yamini he pass over you house of what he said when you see allah the guy who gets the head book handed to him in his right hand he will be given an easy audit you don't have to open your book and show the Angels by the way on page 35 I have a hug please make sure you check that one you know I did I think I'm a little cutter this Ramadan if you make sure I get that the angel says Gallico any no no let's go it's okay no big deal they're not checked but if you get stopped by security on Judgment Day and they say let's see your book and they open the page and you even get asked one question one question Judgment Day is bad for you it's bad for you in the human souis lion monkey I'm a thief Akkad halakha the one who gets asked even one question on Judgment Day is done is destroyed on Judgment Day either we will be people under the shade of ar-rahman ar-raheem or we will be people under the the justice of Maliki Almondine we want Allah Azza WA JAL not to judge us he want we want him to show us his mercy so we don't take advantage of it we keep it balanced this is the essence of who allah azzawajal is to us don't think that you're forgiven just because you do some good deeds don't think like that and don't think allah will not forgive you if you've made mistakes all of your life and you've bet you made mistakes even before you came to salat today if you did that don't think that you're going to hell you're not you're a who says you're going to help you're still alive the opportunity for Toba is still there a lie still letting air into your lungs he's still letting you breathe which means he still wants you to come to him if he wanted you to be done you wouldn't be alive right now everybody who's alive is because i'm not wants them to make Tova that's a mercy of allah to them so you don't have I think it's too late for me or I've done too many bad things Allah will not forgive me you're not bigger than the mercy of Allah you're not bigger than the forgiveness of Allah and at the same time don't you ever think and I should never think that I will only do a few bad things it's no big deal though I read a lot of Quran I'm okay I makes a lot of the Masjid I'm okay I have some bad habits they're hard to let go of but it's okay I will forgive those nah there are some people who only have one sin and they keep doing it over and over again it's one problem they have and they don't let it go Allah so much describes this in the Quran bananaman casaba say ye attend well ah ha thoughts be he katya - who follow like us have a nod the guy who earned one saying he's obsessed with one problem he's got one addiction it could be alcohol
