 الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثاناء الجميل واشد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهد السبيل واشد أن سيدنا ونبينا محمد آخر الأنبياء في الدنيا عصرا وأجلهم يوم القيامة شأنا وذكرى صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد والبلافد برذن سسطز في الإسلام today I wanted to share with you a hadith that has really touched me through the course of my life and a hadith insha'Allah وتعالى that really represents and shows how the Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم was comprehensive in his speech but he would say his words in a very small constructed sentences but he would have a very vast and strong meaning as he said about himself I was given the comprehensive speech والله was عليه صلاة والسلام there is a hadith which ألمام حافظ رحمه الله he wrote in his kitab جامع علوم والحكم حديث 18 that is the hadith of the Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم and this hadith in its original essence is in Sunni Tirmid ألمام الترميد رحمه الله he narrated it في السفيان الثوري رحمه الله who narrated from حبيب ابن أبي ثابت who narrated from ميمون ابن أبي شبيب who then narrated from أبي ذر رضي الله تعالى عنه that the Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said اتقلها حيث ما كنت وأتبع السيئة الحسنة تمحها وخالق الناس بخلق حسن the Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم by saying اتقلها حيث ما كنت the Prophet said be conscious of Allah سبحانه وتعالى wherever you are تقوى have a taqwa of Allah سبحانه وتعالى it was narrated that علي ابن أبي الطالب when he explained what taqwa meant he said التقوى means العمل بالتنزيل is to implement the Quran and the sunnah العمل بالتنزيل and it's to be pleased with the minimum والرضى بالقليل واستعداد اليوم الرحيل and it's to prepare for the day which you're going to meet الله سبحانه وتعالى let me repeat one more time what he said he said العمل بالتنزيل والرضى بالقليل واستعداد اليوم الرحيل this shows us that the sahab is understood taqwa what it meant طلقنا حبيب and others they explained it in other meanings and other definitions that it holds the people of taqwa are those والله تبارك وتعالى promise jannah for them تلك الجنة التي نورت من عبادنا من كان تقية here it is jannah is prepared and it's for the people who come with taqwa in that same surah الله سبحانه وتعالى he says وإن منكم إلا واردها كان على ربك حتى من مقضية ثم ننجل الذين التقوى ونظرو ظالمين فيها جثية الله سبحانه وتعالى that every single person is going to go over the hellfire but there's a group of people who are going to make it through a group of people are going to be saved from falling into the hellfire الله سبحانه وتعالى ثم ننجل الذين التقوى the people who are going to be saved are those who come with taqwa so the hadith that I started my reminder with which is اتق الله حيث ما كنت fear Allah and be conscious of him wherever you are that part of the hadith is what the method that صلى الله عليه وسلم has stated and here you can all see me today I'm out there in the open I'm in a place where you can see all of London but it reminded me that الله سبحانه وتعالى is over us and he sees us سبحانه وتعالى every movement that we do and wherever we are he سبحانه وتعالى is going to see us and he's going to account us for it he knows the deceiving eye what he's doing and he also knows سبحانه وتعالى that which is in our chest so الله تبارك وتعالى deserves that we fear him and that we are conscious of him and that whatever we do he's going to hold this account for the day of judgment يوم لا ينفع مال ولا بنون the day when children and wealth are not going to benefit you إلا من أت الله بقلب سليم except the person who comes to Allah with a pure heart and the taqwa it resides in the heart as the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said أتكوها هنا أتكوها هنا فأشار إلى صدري ثلاثة مرات the taqwa is here the taqwa is here the taqwa is here and he pointed towards his chest three times عليه الصلاة والسلام the second part of the Hadith that I started with is and every crime and every mistake and every shortcoming that you do follow it up with a good act as الله سبحانه وتعالى إن الحسلات يدهبن السيئات that the righteous actions would eradicate the mistakes that you have done so the second part of the Hadith is telling us you're bound to do mistakes as human beings but what's needed from you and that which you should come with my brothers and sisters is follow it up with the righteous actions follow it up with something that is pleasing to Allah سبحانه وتعالى the third part of the Hadith is وخالق الناس بخلق حسن وخالق الناس بخلق حسن deal with the people in a good manner be a person who is of high morals and ethics good etiquettes and if the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم was told to have good characteristics with his own companions what do you then think of yourself الله سبحانه وتعالى he said in the Quran فبما رحمة من الله ولو كنت فضل غليذ القلب لم فضل من حولك فعفوا عنهم وستغفر لهم وشاورهم في الأمر فإذا عزمت فتوكر على الله إذا كنت ليس شخص جيد with the companions and you didn't show them leniency the Sahabas would disperse from your gathering they would leave you if you were a person who had bad manners and you are they would leave you so the good manners is needed from every single person every single Muslim should have good manners and uphold that manners my beloved brothers and sisters good akhlaq and good manners the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said in the hadith إن أقربيكم مني منزل يوم القيامة and the people who are the closest to me in status and closest to me the day of judgment أحسنكم أخلاق then once you have the best characteristics have good manners there's no excuse not to have good manners the times when you're happy and the times when you're sad the times when you're stressed and the times when you're going through good always remember to have good manners and good etiquettes and the way you deal with people if a person insults you and calls you by evil names to remember to call them in good and to show good conduct good behavior good morals and good ethics this is a sign that every Muslim should hold up to والله سبحانه وتعالى كمان دي ده سبحانه وتعالى إنه قرآن that being the case my brothers and sisters I conclude there I just wanted to make it a benefit that we can all share from and that we can all take this benefit is to myself and it's to each and every one of you anything which I have said that was wrong the slip of the tongue because it's not a topic I prepared it's not a talk I but it's something that just came to my mind and I thought I'd share it with you all إن شاء الله وتعالى سبحانك اللهم بحمدك أشدوا اللا إله إلا الله أستغفرك واتوب إلي
