Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Has Created Within Us The Love
Of Certain Things. People Love For Example Their Conveyance,
People Love Wealth, They Like Gold And Silver For Example
People Of The Opposite Sex And So Many Other Things That
People Love But Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Says That If You
Were To Be Conscious Of Allah While Trying To Get That Which
You Love Then You Would Definitely Be In In Comfort In Contentment
And In The Hereafter, We Will Grant You Paradise.
But If You Were To Try And Go And Get Those Things That You
Love Through Means That Are Unacceptable, A Person Loves A
Motor Vehicle,
He Goes To Steal, A Person Likes Another Person And Goes To
Commit Adultery Or Fornication.
Then Allah Says You Are Plunging Yourself Into Destruction
And You Will Take Away Your Happiness.
In Fact, They Will Be A Crisis. When Someone Goes To Steal Their
Worried About The Long Arm Of The Law, When A Person Were
To Commit Adultery Or Fornication.
They'Re Worried About So Many Other Things At A Certain Point.
So Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Tells Us We Know That The Love
Of These Things Is Within You But Don'T Follow The Devil'S
Beautification Of It In The Wrong Way Rather Go For It In
The Most Beautiful Way And This Is Why When Allah Mentions
These Things Gold And Silver And The Horses Meaning The Conveyance
In Verse Number 14 Of Surat Al-Imran Immediately After That
In Verse Number 15. Allah Says
Should We Tell You What Is Better For You Than All Of These
Things If They Were To Be Achieved In The Wrong Way
For Those Who Are Conscious Of Allah Is Indeed Paradise.
What That Means Is When You Are Trying To Achieve These Things
You Must Be Conscious Of Allah, The Rules, The Regulations,
The Dos, The Don'Ts That He Has Laid, Are Not Laid There In
Order For You To Be Distressed, But They Are There In Order
To Govern Your Life And Make It Beautiful So That You Can
Achieve Comfort At All Times And This Is Why Immediately
After That Allah Speaks About Those Who Are Conscious Of
Him. They Constantly Pray To Him, What Do They Say,
Rabbana Innana Amanna Faghfir Lana Dhunuubana Wa Qinna 'Adhaban-Naar [3:16]
Subhanallah They Say Our Lord We Have Believed In You, We Have Believed
In You So Therefore Forgive Us, So They'Re Actually Letting
Allah Know That We Believe In You.
So We Expect You To Forgive Us.
Yes, That'S Correct.
You'Re A Believer In Allah.
Well You Can Expect That From Allah Because You Believe In
Him And Allah Says They Say So Forgive Our Sins And Save
Us From The Punishment Of Hellfire.
May Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Protect Us All My Brothers And Sisters.
It'S Very Important That When We Get What We Want.
We Actually Should Be Getting It Through The Correct Means
In The Same That When A Person Breaks The Law Of The Land To
Get What They Want.
They Would Be Living In Constant Fear.
Well, The Same Would Apply If One Were To Disregard The Laws
Of Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala, A Different Type Of Fear And
Perhaps Something Totally Different May Overtake That Person.
May Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Grant Us Protection Allah Subhanahu
Wa'Ta'Ala In Verse Number 26 Of Surat Al-Imran Tells Us Who
Owns Kingdom, Who Owns Authority On Land And Who Is The One
Who Elevates People? Allah Says Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala
Say Oh Allah Is The Owner Of
Kingdom, Dominion Everything, He Gives Provision And Kingdom
Authority To Whomsoever He Wishes And He Takes It Away From
Whomsoever He Wishes And He Raises Whomsoever He Wishes And
He Drops Whomsoever He Wishes. For Indeed
All Goodness Is In The Hands Of Allah, He Is All Able And
All Capable, This First Brings About A Lot Of Comfort Because
We Know That Allah Is In Control, He Raises Whom He Wants, He
Drops Whom He Wants.
So If You Have Been Raised You Need To Remember Allah Can
Drop You, So Be Humble And If You'Ve Been Dropped You Need
To Remember Allah Will Raise You He Is The One Who Is Able
And Capable So Develop Your Relationship With Him. Either
Way Whether You Have Or You Don'T The Secret Is To Develop Your
Relationship With Allah To Remain Humble And Remain Steadfast
And This Is Why Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Tells Us In Verse
Number 31 Of The Same Surah That The Winner Is He Who Follows
What The Messenger Has Actually Taught. If You Really Love
Allah, Then You Need To Prove That Love By Following What
The Messenger Has Taught.
Listen To Verse Number 31
Say If You Love Allah Then Follow Me And Allah Will
Love You And Forgive You Your Sins. For Indeed
He Is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful. Amazing Verse Of The Quran
Simply Because We Will Only Achieve Comfort Through The Love
Of Allah. The Crises Will Only Be Alleviated By The Help Of
Allah And In Order To Love Allah
We Need To Follow What The Messenger Has Taught And This
Is Why What We Said Today Of Getting What You Want Through
Legitimate Means Legal Means Is Very Very Important.
Now, I Want To Move On To Something Unique, You Know, The
Wife Of Imran This Surah Is Named After The Family Of Imran.
So The Wife Of Imran Was The Mother Of Mary, The Virgin Mary
Who Was The Mother Of Christ Or Isa Alaihi Salam Means Peace
Be Upon Him.
So Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Says The Mother Of Mary Used
To Pray To Allah To Say, O Allah If You Bless Me With Offspring,
I Will Actually Sacrifice This Offspring For Your Cause And
Allah Blessed Her With A Girl Child,
Subhanallah, The Girl Child, Now Many Times People Want To
Have Boys, Someone To Have Girls Allah Says Do You Know What?
It'S In Me.
It'S In My Hands.
It'S Up To Me.
What I'M Going To Do, Allah Blessed Her With The Girl That
Girl Was Maryam, Something Unique Used To Happen To Maryam,
Mary. The Mother Of Jesus May Peace Be Upon Them
Both. Something Amazing Used To Happen.
Zakariya Used To Take Care Of Her And She Was In Her Own
Space Or Place Of Worship.
And Every Time She Was In That Place Of Worship When Zakariya
Used To Go There, He Used To Find With Her Some Food.
Where Did You Get This Food From? It Was Fruit What Type Of
Fruit, Fruit That Was Out Of Season.
Subhanallah.
It'S Not Even A Seasonal Fruit.
So Who Brought It For You?
It Couldn'T Have Been A Human Being.
So Every Time Zakariya Went To This Place Of Worship To See
Mary, Maryam As She Grew Older And She Was Young, He Saw Fruit
With Her That Was Amazing Strange.
So He Asked Her.
Where Did You Get This From Verse Number 38. She Says
It Is From Allah, Allah Gives Whomsoever He Wishes Without
Account. So When You Pray To Allah, He Gives You That Which
People Consider Impossible.
That'S What Zakariya Learnt Immediately, If I Were To Pray To Allah,
Allah Will Give Me Something That Others Might Consider Impossible.
Your Faith Will Carry You During Times Of Crisis, My Beloved
Brothers And Sisters Your Faith, Keep Supplicating And Have
Conviction In Allah.
He Is The One If He Granted Fruit And Vegetable To Marry
Or Some Types Of Food To The To Mary, The Mother Of Jesus
When She Prayed And She Was Close To Him.
Do You Think He Cannot Create A Miracle For You
And I? Look At Zakariya, He Immediately Saw That And He Knew
He Doesn'T Have Offspring Male, Offspring To Carry His Lineage.
