 فشرف بل اشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دا دا دا لا وياله من شراف عظيم الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على أشرف الانبياء والمرسلين سيدنا ونبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه والتابعين لهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد today's benefit إن شاء الله تعالى is going to be from the book by الشيخ عبد الرحمان ابن ناصر السعدي رحمه الله it has a book called الوسائل المفيدة للحياة السعيدة الوسائل المفيدة للحياة السعيدة means that are beneficial for a good life so the sheikh is talking about ways that a person can have a good life in the beginning of his book the sheikh says the following and so inshallah this quote of his and statement of his inshallah is going to be the benefit of today he says وأعظم الأسباب لذلك وأصلها وأسها هو الإيمان والعمل الصالح قال الله تعالى من عمل صالحا من ذكر أو أنثا وهو مؤمن فلنح ينه حياتا طيبة ولنجز ينهم أجرهم بأحسن ما كانوا يعملون الشيخ رحمه الله he says one of the greatest ways and means rather the foundation in which a person can gain a good life if you want to live a good life the foundation for it and the greatest way to achieve it is الإيمان to believe in الله سبحانه وتعالى to believe in the angels to believe in the books that Allah سبحانه وتعالى he sent to believe in the messages that were sent to believe in the day of judgment to believe in that which Allah تعالى has destined for you the good and the evil of it and it is also to come with righteous actions and the sheikh رحمه الله he said based on the statement of Allah من عملة صالحة من ذكر أو أنثا وهو مؤمن anyone who comes with righteous actions whether it's a male or a female الله says فلنحي أنه حياتا طيبة we're going to give them a good life ولنجز ينهم and Allah says we will reward them أجرهم with their good actions بأحسن ما كانوا يعملون on the greatest actions and the greatest deeds that they did شخص يقول فأخبر تعالى ووعد من جمع بين الإيمان والعمل الصالح بالحياة الطيبة في هذه الدارة وبالجزاء الحسن في هذه الدارة وفي دار القراري الشخص الله سبحانه وتعالى has informed us in his verse and he has promised us for the person who combines between إيمان and righteous actions the person who brings together إيمان the six pillars and the six articles of iman تميلا بالله وملايكتي وكتبه ورسوله وليوم الآخر وتميلا بالقدر الخير هو الشره and the second one is is righteous actions if you bring those two together بالحياة الطيبة الله is going to give you a good life in this world في هذه الدارة in this world وبالجزاء الحسن في هذه الدارة وفي دار القرار and that Allah is going to reward you with good in this world and also in the hereafter by having what? إيمان the six articles of iman and having righteous actions then the sheikh goes on to say وسبب ذلك واضح فإن المؤمنين بالله الإيمان الصحيح this is clear for verily the one who believes in Allah a true belief المثمن للعمل الصالح then this belief it then produces righteous actions on the person's limbs المصلح للقلوب والأخلاق that rectifies and corrects your heart and your manners the iman here what does it do brothers and sisters it produces righteous actions on the limbs that's what it will do if a person has a true iman it will start to produce on their limbs righteous actions and what it will also do is the person's heart and their manners will also be in accordance to how Allah loves and is pleased with in this world and hereafter these people who have the righteous actions and they also have an iman the sheikh says معهم أصول and they truly have a foundation وأصول صول they have a foundation fundamental foundations يتلقون بها جميع ما يريد عليهم من أسباب السرور والابتهاج وأسباب القلق والهم والحزانين this strong foundation of theirs which is righteous actions and correct iman it allows them to face every matter in which they encounter in their lives whether that matter is a joyful matter a happy day they will deal with it in the correct way وأسباب القلق and if hardship depression stress comes their way والهم والحزان they also have strong foundation in how they should deal with it their iman is intact they have righteous actions so the foundation which they have built themselves allows them to deal with every situation that comes their ways and the situation my brothers and sisters that comes our ways is one of two it is either we are happy and we're excited and we're enjoying ourselves or we're in a position and a time where we're depressed and we're stressed and the believer who has the righteous who has the correct iman and who has the righteous actions will deal with those two correctly and the evidence for that is the hadith of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم in which مام المسلم رحمه الله he narrated صحيح من حديث من حديث الصحيب رضي الله تعالى عنه where the Prophet said he said عجباً لأمر المؤمن is the affairs of the believer إن أمره كله خير all of these affairs are good إن أصابته صراء شكرا فكان خير الله if good comes his way he deals with it in what way he comes with gratitude he comes with gratitude شكر وإن أصابته الضراء when hardship comes his way when pain and suffering comes his way he deals with it with what صبر patients فكان خير الله all of the affairs of the believer is good for him because from the good that he is going through he deals with it with gratitude when hardship comes he deals with it with patience وليس دالك إلا للمؤمن and no one has this except the believer which his whole life is between gratitude and patience how has he gained that my brothers and sisters he has gained it based on the ayah من عامل صالح من ذكرين أو أنثا وهو مؤمن فلنح ينه حياتا طيبة ولناجز ينهم أجرهم بحسن ما كانوا يعملون they had correct إيمان and they came with righteous actions and so whatever situation they were in they dealt with it the way they needed to deal with it because of the strong foundation in which they had intact before the occurrence of this situation and this is the benefit I wanted to share with you today سبحانك اللهم بحمدك أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله أستغفرك وأتوب إليه
