if alcohol has always been the work of
the devil
even when Allah said he didn't say it
was Haram yet even then it was evil even
then even when he said at least don't be
drunk when you what when you pray even
then it was still the work of who the
devil but Allah didn't say it yet it was
too much to handle for some people so
Allah was merciful to the believers even
around the messenger of allah salallahu
alayhi wa said them and he allowed them
to develop to mature and eventually gave
them the final verdict this is evil this
is an abomination you need to stop
altogether what I'm trying to tell you
is nowadays you give that Allah to
someone and you expect them to turn
around and turn into a sahabi or if not
sabi Sahabi at least at a bay within 24
hours bro I told you it's Haram
yesterday while you're still doing it
bro a star for Allah Allah Arleen these
people don't even change man I already
gave them that what they didn't change I
already told them I gave a whole
20-minute hubbub and look nothing
changed man can you like go read
something about new holiday Salam or
something dude he has a right to say
people don't change you don't have a
right to say that and by the way it is
not your words or my words that change
people it is not our words that change
people
it is Allah that changes people the
second way we do it we make it seem like
you have to have so much knowledge you
have to know so much fit and so much art
EDA and so much Islamic history and so
much Arabic and so much they've seed and
so much of so many things and you have
to know so many scholars and all of
their books and all of their names and
all this stuff and then you have to
watch all these thousands of YouTube
videos and take all these notes maybe
then you might make it into Jenna and
now what happens to people they get
intimidated man there's way too much
stuff to learn but I don't know I don't
know that
stuff but I'm not good enough until I
learn everything let me ask you
something
think about this this is one of the most
beautiful stories in the entire Quran it
is the young men of the cave you know
the story these young men are living at
a time where there are no profits these
young men are built belong to a village
a city where there are no other Muslims
they're the only ones everybody else is
on motion ik these young men are not
scholars they don't have a shape who
teaches them they have no Java in
anything nothing all they know is that
they cannot worship anyone other than
Allah that's all they know they don't
have any other end they don't know
anything else
and look la la ma of islam scholars of
islam from the beginning of our history
to this day people who study tough sere
for their entire life are going to be
writing and studying the legacy of young
men who didn't know anything but la
ilaha ilallah those young men who are
nothing in knowledge are heroes to the
ulama of islam the third way in which we
close the door to general on people we
make it sound like only the best people
are going to go to Jannah but you
unfortunately I mean you could try but I
mean look at you
I mean seriously Jana you oh come on let
me tell you something from the Quran now
yes na ha in Alaska before I translate
this ayah listen to this example it's a
silly example but it'll get the point
across the you know the the Department
of Motor Vehicles there are traffic laws
you guys are familiar with traffic laws
unless you're 17 years old but you know
if you're familiar with traffic laws
listen they say you will get a ticket if
you speed you'll get a ticket if you
want speed does that mean you will only
get a ticket if you speed no that means
one of the ways you can get a ticket is
one speeding but there are other
to get a ticket right but what if it
said no one will get a ticket except the
one who speeds if I say it like that
nobody will get a ticket except the one
who speeds then what are we saying
everybody else is what off the hook no
problem
the only crime is what crime speeding
now listen
Allah does not say yes la he'll ask are
the worst he will enter the worst people
into hell he will throw the worst people
into hell if he said that then there's
the the room is open the worst people
will go to hell and not that bad people
also he didn't say that he said la ilaha
illa Nazca nobody will go to hell except
the worst worst worst kinds of people
and Lashkar the most wretched the most
miserable the most evil kinds of people
those are the ones that are gonna go to
Jahannam what is the concept that most
Muslims have in their head that somehow
most of us are gonna end up in Gehenna
yeah Rob look at the next ayah look at
the next ayah was I you janabu hell
Attica
he didn't say he will not let anybody go
to Jannah except the best people the
most righteous people he didn't say that
he said he will let the most righteous
people go to Jannah they will be saved
from jahannum but he didn't say only
they will be saved he left the door when
he came to Jahannam he closed the door
when he came to Jannah in the very next
ayah he opened the door he likes to open
that door we like to close it and not on
ourselves especially on other people the
last thing I want to share with you in
this regard about making our Deen easy
taking our Deen easily is a lot angry in
the Quran sometimes tell me is he angry
in the Quran sometimes absolutely hell
please listen listen to the silly
example first and I'll tell you about
the Quran sometime I have six children
by the way so one of my younger boys
will leave maybe he does something
maybe he took the crayons and decided to
write his name on the wall and I'm
yelling and we'll leave why did you do
that why did you take the crayons
you should never written on the wall I'm
yelling at him and my daughter says yeah
we need why'd you do that and I look at
my girl to go excuse me when did you
become mama bear I'm the father I have a
right to be angry you're a little
chicken you need to know your place you
understand what I'm saying to you Allah
gets angry in the Quran because he is
Allah he has a right to get angry but
you know what people do they take the
ayat in which a lie is angry and to say
Ya Allah is angry sorry I'm angry too
the biggest example of that is our own
messenger sallallaahu any time how he
taught us this balance
we're in Christmas season so it's
appropriate to mention even when
somebody says Allah has taken a son how
angry does it make a lot how angry does
it make Allah the skies shake they're
about to rip open Takada somato Johanna
chuckle chuckle of the earth is about to
crack open the skies are about to rip
when somebody says what Allah has taken
a son this is extremely angering to
Allah extremely infuriating to Allah but
those same Christians who say it when
they come to visit the messenger of
allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he
tells them to stay where in which hotel
huh I must eat another way and when they
pray to Jesus where do they pray in
unless you turn every by the permission
and hospitality of The Messenger of
Allah because Allah has the right to get
angry but the messengers job is loving
Dawa there's a difference between the
two and the Muslim needs to understand
that difference they cannot take the
anger of Allah and turn that to your
anger against people you have no right
you have no right and I have no
right that is in the hands of Allah
