 وأقول في القرآن ما جاءت به آياته فهو الكاريم المنزال وأقول قال الله جل جلاله والمصطف الهدي ولا أتأوله الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثناء الجميل وشدوا الله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له واشدوا أن سيدنا ونبينا محمد صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد في هذا الفيديو أريد أن أتحدث عن ماذا نحفظه ماذا نحفظه؟ الله سبحانه وتعالى تخبرنا الله سبحانه وتعالى يقول يا أيها الذين آمنوا كتب عليكم الصيام كما كتب علي الذين من قبلكم لعلكم تتقول الله سبحانه وتعالى يقول those of you who believe يا أيها الذين آمنوا the people of Iman are being spoken to here نداء للأهل الإيمان الله is addressing the people of Iman كتب عليكم الصيام the fasting has been ordained upon you it has been made obligatory upon you كما كتب علي الذين من قبلكم like it was made obligatory on those who came before you and then Allah tells us the hikma and the illa the reason and the wisdom of why He legislated the fasting الله تعالى تعالى tells us it is what لعلكم تتقون it is to attain Taqwa Taqwa is why we are fasting someone asks you why are you fasting you know it is because to attain Taqwa some people if you ask them why are you fasting they will say because fasting is a health or a fitness or it has health benefits and so if you fast you become healthy you become this and that they forget the purpose in which Allah mentioned لعلكم تتقون fasting brings about Taqwa by fasting you attain Taqwa the scholars they mention that the purpose why Allah SWT created us is to worship Him and the reason why Allah created us is to worship Him and Allah SWT mentioned to us why He wants us to worship Him so يعني pay attention to this point the reason you were created is to worship Allah and the reason why you worship Allah is to attain Taqwa and then Taqwa is a result of the purpose in which you are created from because you were created to worship Allah and from your عبادة you attain Taqwa and fasting is an عبادة it brings about Taqwa the question here is my beloved brothers and sisters what is Taqwa if you don't know something can you really come with it can you come with Taqwa if you don't know what Taqwa means I'm going to give you the best definition of Taqwa a definition that Shaykhul Islam was pleased with and he said that this is the most comprehensive definition of Taqwa and it's none other than the definition said by طلق بن حبيب طلق بن حبيب when he defined Taqwa he said أن تعمل بطاعة الله على نور من الله ترجو ثواب الله وأن تترك معصية الله على نور من الله تخافر إقام الله he said التقوى means أن تعمل بطاعة الله it is to act in obedience of Allah يعني your action you're doing it in obedience to Allah because that's what you are you're a slave you need to obey your master the master is who الله عزي و جل so you are acting in obedience to Allah على نور من الله but the act of obedience it's based on a light from Allah يعني it's based upon a revelation it's based upon a revelation the way that you are acting and the way that you are doing things is all based upon a legislation set by Allah you're not doing it based on your own whims and desires and the thoughts that come to your mind you're doing it based on evidences that you've gathered from the Quran and the Sunnah على نور من الله ترجو ثواب الله and whilst you're doing it you're hoping reward from Allah سبحانه وتعالى you're hoping that Allah سبحانه وتعالى is going to He's going to reward you for what you're doing because there's no one else who can reward you other than Allah سبحانه وتعالى the reward is in his hands he's the one who can give you the reward و أن تترك مع عصية الله and it is also to leave off the sins to us abstain and stay far from it على نور من الله based on a light from Allah سبحانه وتعالى wherever Allah تبارك وتعالى made impermissible and haram you do it you do what? you stay away from it you abstain from it you don't indulge in doing it تخاف عقاب الله you are fearful of the punishment of Allah that is تقوى and by beloved brothers and sisters it is the people of تقوى that Allah تبارك وتعالى told us that they are going to inherit جنة أسوى الله سبحانه وتعالى تلك الجنة التي نوري through من أبادنا من كان تقيا جنة will be inherited by the pious people of تقوى are going to inherit جنة الله even told us سبحانه وتعالى in the Quran that it is the people of تقوى who are going to be saved from the Hellfire and they are the ones who are not going to fall into the Hellfire when other people will be falling into it وإمينكم إلا واردها كان على ربك حتما مقضية ثم نجل لدينا تقوى ونظر بالمنا فيها جثية الله tells us سبحانه وتعالى that everybody else is going to fall into the Hellfire the only people Allah is going to save are who ثم نجل لدينا تقوى the people who are going to save are the pious people the Prophet ﷺ he told us that the تقوى gashes from and it springs from the heart and that's why the Prophet ﷺ he said التقوى ها هنا التقوى ها هنا التقوى ها هنا the Prophet ﷺ said that تقوى is here the تقوى is here the تقوى is here 3 times ﷺ we need to familiarize ourselves with the definition of تقوى because if you are ignorant of the definition of something you are not going to come with it عاليبنا بطالب gave another definition to تقوى which is worth mentioning عاليبنا بطالب and he said تقوى is الخوف من الجليل it is to be scared of Allah والعمل بالتنزيل it is to work in accordance to the revelation والرضى بالقليل and it is to be pleased with the little Allah has given you contentment واستعداد اليوم الرحيل and it is to prepare for the day of judgment 4 things he mentioned الخوف من الجليل it is to be scared of Allah والعمل بالتنزيل it is to act upon the Quran and the Sunnah والرضى بالقليل and to be content with whatever Allah has given you واستعداد اليوم الرحيل and it is to prepare for the day of departure the day when you are going to leave this world and you are going to meet Allah سبحانه وتعالى those 4 things عاليبنا بطالب and he said that is what تقوى is عمر ابن عبد العزيز said a very powerful statement which I am going to conclude with إن شاء الله وتعالى عمر ابن عبد العزيز and he said ليس تقوى الله بصيام النهاري ولا بقيام الليل عمر ابن عبد العزيز and he said تقوى is not فاستن day time and praying at night والتخليط فيما بين ذلك and it is not to mix the two no that is none of that ولكن تقوى الله تركوما حرم الله وأداء مفترض الله فمن رزقة he said فمن رزقة ذلك خيرا فهو خير إلا خيرين عمر ابن عبد العزيز رحمه الله he said that تقوى is not to fast the day time and to pray at night time and it is not to emerge the two rather what تقوى is is that you leave off that which Allah prohibited سبحانه وتعالى you do what was obliged upon you made mandatory upon you he then said فمن رزقة بعد ذلك anyone who this has been given to them then verily he has been given good with good look how the self عمر ابن عبد العزيز طلق ابن حبيب other great look how they looked at تقوى for them تقوى summarized the concept of Islam for them تقوى was what do as you are told and stay away from what you are told stay away from that's it as a slave that's all it is for you you do what you are told to do and you stay away from what you were told to stay away from and you will find the doors of success and prosperity and happiness and joy will come your way in this world and the day of judgment nothing else awaits you except جنة that is all that is needed from us this month of Ramadan coming we have to fulfill the wisdom and the wisdom for fasting when you look at the Quran Allah mentioned يَا الَّذِي لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُولُ He said in the ayah 183 if you go to ayah 187 Allah also concluded it by saying لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُولُ both verses Allah concluded it with لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُولُ the first verse of the fasting لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُولُ and the last one is the first verse of the fasting لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُولُ and the last one Allah concluded it with لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُولُ why?
