 الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والسراء الجميل واشدوا الله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهدي السبيل واشدوا النسيدنا ونبينا محمد صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد I was reading a hadith أمامه أحمد ومسنده ومسنده أمامه أحمد وهذا حديث هو صحيح ثابت هو أثاني ويخلص من the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم وهذا حديث يتبعه بسرعة عبد الله رضي الله تعالى عنه هو حديث يتبعه وردنا رجل ويخلص من the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم ويخلص من the prophet إن شرائع الإسلام قد كثرت أن الإسلام قد كثرت كثيراً الشريعة وردنا رجل والأحكام لأن في مكة الأحكام كانت قليل الأشياء التي تفعل أو الأشياء التي كانت قليل والأشياء التي كانت قليل في مكة وليتور ولكن عندما كانت قليل في مدينة كانت قليل أحكام لأنهم كانت قليل أفضل في القرآن لذا هذا الشخص قلت to the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم إن شرائع الإسلام the rulings of the islam قد كثرت it has become a lot on me علينا الله قول of us he said to him فباب نتمسخ به جامع he said to the prophet of Allah give us something we can hold on to something that that's comprehensive جامع and we all have to ponder here this man is saying to the prophet of Allah إن شرائع الإسلام قد كثرت the ahkab is too much and the reason why I believe this hadith it should be of today's reflection is because many of us have responsibilities and the reason why I believe this hadith many of us have responsibilities we have duties we've got work, we wake up our tribe has been preoccupied with so much duties and so many things that we need to do so this question of this companion many of us will fall under it isn't that the case so the prophet of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم is now going to tell him what he believes to be the most comprehensive thing that he should come with and he should hold on to the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said to him لا يزالوا لسانك your tongue in the Arabic language the law is a nephew and يزالوا has معنى النفه as a meaning of negation in it and the qa'id in the Arabic language is نفه نفه إذبات negation negation is affirmation even in English if you negate twice it becomes an affirmation so here the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is trying to say فَلْ يَقْلُ لِسَانُ كَلَّتْ يَوْ تَنْ بِيْ رَطْ بَمِّمِّ بِكْرِ اللَّهِ moist in the remembrance of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم and then this is the answer of the prophet be a person whom every opportunity every moment every time your tongue is remembering الله سبحانه وتعالى so for the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم this is a babel جامع according to the prophet now that was what he was asked for a very comprehensive thing that a person can hold on to and the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم when did he tell him he told him to increase in the remembrance of Allah why is this jami'a the reason is because number one إبن القيب mentions is because it's very easy for the person to do actions of the limbs they may require a lot of effort from you to praise Allah it requires effort from you more than just sitting somewhere and your tongue saying words that are light that's why the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said in the hadith كلمة تاني two words what are they خفيفة تاني they are very light those two words are very very light and what are they light on علي ساني they are light on the tongue تقير تاني but they are very heavy the person can say it he's driving a car he's a taxi Uber driver he can do his dicker he can say these two words a person is a pilot he can do it a person is picking up their shopping they can do it a person is at work giving tickets to people whatever the job and the role that you are holding you can still be doing your dicker that's why the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is saying كلمة تاني two words are what خفيفة تاني علي ساني they are very light on the tongue and they are what سقيلة تاني في الميزاني but on the scale of the day of judgment it is what it is very heavy and from this hadith they took that things may appear sometimes to be something but they are not necessarily like that these words are very easy to say people will think because it's easy to say it the reward is also going to be the easy it's going to be a very small reward but the reality is that the reward is great the prophet told us in a famous hadith الله does not look at a person's form الله does not look at a person's image but what does Allah look at ولك يوم ضره إلى قلوبكم عمالكم الله looks at a person's heart and Allah looks at a person's actions the prophet told us in a little hadith يوطى it will be brought the day of judgment بديون سمين a man who is he is weighty, he is heavy and he is big فى يوضع في الميزاني he will be placed on the scale فى لا يزل عند الله جنحا با الله and he doesn't weigh over we got mosquito so some things in this world they look like in a particular way but this man who is big on the scale he should be heavy right should he not be but he is not heavy it's because it's bigger than the weight on him and the same is with this you are saying it's very light on the tongue what is it that the person says سبحان الله العظيم the prophet told us that these are two heavy words on the scale but they are very light on that on the tongue that's the first reason why the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم I mentioned this to be very comprehensive the second reason is because the way that I'm going to now mention all of these benefits that I'm going to mention that are full under it are all the reasons why it's comprehensive I'm going to mention A, B, C so much benefit that the remembrance of Allah holds but what I want you to all remember brothers is I got this from the Kitab الواب العصيب الواب العصيب written by does anyone here know who wrote it does anyone know who wrote that book الواب العصيب does anyone know what الواب العصيب means the word الواب العصيب does anyone know what it means الواب العصيب it basically means it means rain that benefits it's the matter when it comes down it benefits the people it's not the matter that kills the people it's the wisdom the ذكر is like what so it's the water when it comes down it gives life to the earth وَدْرِ مِنْ الْغَيْنْ قَدْعَ فَمْ تِنَّ اللَّهَ سَيْمَا قُرْآنَ لَمْ يَعْلِدِنِ لَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أن تخشع قروبهم نذكر الله وما نزل من الحق ولا يكونوا كالذين أوتوا الكتاب من قبل فطالع عليهم الأمد فقست قروبهم وكثير منهم فاسقون ودر الله سعفرات يعلموا أن الله يحيييي الأرض بعد موتها why is Allah mentioning giving life to this earth after it died the same way that when the rain comes down it gives life to the earth is فطالع عليهم الأمد فقست قروبهم that these people when they left they remember us of Allah ألم يألين لذين عامنا تخشع قروبهم نذكر الله وما نزل من الحق there's a relationship between that rain coming down and giving life to this earth is that they're thinking what it comes what does it give to the heart it gives it life so it was appropriate to call the book and those are the in that book of his he mentions close to 100 benefits of remembering Allah so insha'Allah I'm going to mention some of the benefits that are in the remembrance of Allah the first benefit insha'Allah is of course it gives life to the individual which we just mentioned now the remembrance of Allah it gives life to the heart it gives life to the heart just like your body needs carbohydrates it needs protein it needs vitamin the heart needs the remembrance of Allah والذلك the Prophet which is in Sahir Al-Bukhari المسلم مثل الذي يذكر ربه the example of the one who remembers his Lord والذي لا يذكر ربه and the one who doesn't remember his Lord الله سبحانه وتعالى is like مثل الحي والميت is like one who is alive and one who is dead that's the difference between the two and another wedding the Prophet ﷺ he said مثل البيت الذي the example of a house الذي يذكر الذي يذكر فيه فيه the house which is remembered in it الله سبحانه وتعالى والبيت الذي لا يذكر فيه and the house which is not mentioned in Allah سبحانه وتعالى is again like مثل الحي والميت لذلك that's what Allah said in the Qur'an ومن يعشر عن ذكر الرحمان نقيض له شيطانا فهو له قريب does anyone know the word ومن يعشر what does the word يعشر the floor is open what is the word يعشر ومن يعشر عن ذكر الرحمان what does it mean أي معنى غفنة anyone who is heedless ومن يعشر عن ذكر الرحمان anyone who is heedless from what يعشر عن ذكر الرحمان ومن يعشر عن ذكر الرحمان who is going to take him as a kareed who is going to take him as a close friend because the kareed is somebody who doesn't leave you right so the shaytan becomes your mula'z the shaytan is always with you right now the person comes up to you when they are sick now the iman is 100% gone down this person is truly suffering but why did they start to suffer every day they just kept remembering Allah whenever they did something they just done it they did the remembrance of Allah their heart would have been alive وذلك الشيخ وليسر المبنوطيمة he said الذكر للقلبي that the remembrance is for the heart said like what مثل الماء الاسمك just like the water وعليكم السلام the fish is for the water right يبنو القلبي فكيف يقول حالو سمك what will the situation of the fish be إذا فارق الماء if he leaves the water think about that if you take a fish out of the water what will happen to him if you take a believer out of the remembrance of Allah out of the remembrance of Allah what will happen to him the person will he will die when he died in the Quran when he says ياري لدينا أعملوا أستجيبوا لله وليه رسولي إذا دعاكم لما يفريكم لما يفريكم that which is going to give you life what is it that he is going to call you to is the remembrance of Allah ودينا الله سيأت أعملوا الله فلا تستعجلوا سبحانه وتعالى عم يشيكون ينزلوا الملايكة بالروح الله is referring what is Allah referring the Quran as what الروح وكذلك أوحينا إليك روحاً من أمرنا ما كنت تدريم الكتاب ولا الإيمان ولكن جعلناه نوراً نهدي بي وإن نشاءوا من عبادنا وإنك لا تهدي إلى أصرات المستقيم so Allah refers to the what does he refer to the Quran as روح life and a lot of the people that call you because they are suicidal is because the heart is dead and once the heart dies the person doesn't want to live again they no longer want to live the person doesn't want to live again it doesn't want to live because the heart has reached a point so it's very important الله says to the prophet نزل ودينا الله سوى إنه لتنزيل رب العالمين نزل بهروح الأمين maybe Allah came down with it the Quran so jibid was referred to as روح because what he's carrying is something that's given life to the people the second benefit in the remembrance of Allah it is when the person remembers Allah they have placed a fortress between them in other words the person gets control over their own affairs ودي ذلك that many people have in their pockets today in which they read what is it called a fortress of a muslim that's why it's called that's why it's called a fortress of muslim the reason it's called a fortress of a muslim is because it places between the person and shaytan a very strong fortress in which shaytan can't come to them and this is taken from a hadith that Imam Muhammad narrated in his muslim and other than him with a chain which is authentic that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said that Allah سبحانه وتعالى يحيب المزكرية يحيب المزكرية the Prophet with 50 words in 5 statements 5 things and he implements it first and this is the first thing when somebody learns something who's the first person who has to implement it him so Allah سبحانه وتعالى he says to you first of all you implement it أن يعمل بهم و أن يأمر بالإسرائيلة أنه كمان وتوات بالإسرائيل توات he calls بالإسرائيل توات و لذلك وفدوا عبد القيس when they came to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم do you guys know the delegation they said when they came to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم they said because between you and us there's an enemy and the only time that they stop fighting with us is the the sacred months that's the only time that we can come other than that we're in battle with these people so we can't come through they'll kill us so when we come to you teach us something that we can implement we can convey it to those who are behind us so look first who did they want it for them tells and then they wanted to they wanted it for that's what the scholars they say that the intention of seeking knowledge and the intention of gaining knowledge is in 10 4 things before you start seeking knowledge the first one is it the first is for you to leave the room of ignorance that's the first reason why you're learning for so these companions this is what it was for them and the believers so he said and he called and he called to implement these 5 things the first one was what the first of it was the first of it was and then it was and then it was and then it was and he said they remember the example of this the one who remembers is they are one who remembers is is like a man is like a man the army are running after him he's got an enemy after him trying to catch with him they are right behind him to catch him and then he comes to a fortress and locks himself in it سوف يكون الناس يستطيع التركنا عندما تقوم بإمكانهم أن يتركوا يتركوا في عالمهم و أنه يفعل هذا يتركوا من هؤلاء الناس و لذلك الله يقول أعوذ برب الناس ملك الناس إله الناس من شر الوسواص الخناس هم who knows what is meant by الوسواص الخناس والذي يتحدث عن الشيطان okay good but what does it mean الوسواص الخناس he whispers who does he whisper to الغافر عنديك لله the one who is what who is heedless of others remembers of who خناس means what what the what the so what is that he is doing خناس means it turns away and it becomes small and it runs away when the when the comes it becomes very small very small and weak fragile that's what remembers of Allah يعني بتاعدة it becomes far from that person when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the when the because the believer, his situation is one of two in Asabatu صراء شكرا فكان خير الله وإن Asabatu ضراء صبرا فكان خير الله وذلك وليس ذلك إلا المؤمن وليس ذلك إلا المؤمن that the person's situation is either good or it's a situation of heart-shifting and calamity it's true or false the believer remembers Allah in both situations every the time of heart-shifting there is a particular demand of servitude that's needed from you the times of heart-shifting and the times of good and joyful times there's this type of servitude that's needed from you what is it the first one gratitude but it's joyful times and you enjoy yourself now you get your money, you get your car you get everything you want you are remembering Allah through great gratitude شكرا and when you're going through heart-shifting you're remembering Allah through what patience and then if you're doing those two things and you're coming with both of them your heart is going to find tranquility أليس كذلك isn't that the case your heart will find tranquility because you're one of those two situations today you either enjoy yourself or you're going through pain and each time you are remembering Allah by what by coming with what is needed from you ولذلك ألمام عبد الرحمن ناصر السعدي some people they call him a saadi but the correct way of calling him is saadi he summarized the benefit of the dhikr in the final lines he says فذكر إله العرش سرا ومعلنة يزيل الشقة والهم عنك ويطرد ويجلوب للخيرات دنيا وآجلا وإيأتيك الوسواس يوما يشرد فقد أخبر المختار يوما لصحبه بأن كثيرا ذكر في السبق ووصى معاذا يستعين إلهه على ذكره والشكر بالحسن يعبد وأوصى لشخص قد أتاء وأوصى لشخص قد أتاء لنصيحة وقد كان في حمل الشرائع يجهد بأن لا يزمرت بلسانك هذه تعين على كل الأمور وتسعد ويقوم بإمكانه أن يقول هذه المبارك وأنه يقول أن شخص قد أتاء وكذلك وإمكانه أن يتحدث ويقول وأخبر أن الله يذكر عبده ومعه على كل الأمور يُسدد وأخبر أن ذكر يبقى بجنة وينقطع التكليف حين وَلَوْ لَمْ يَكْنْ فِي ذِكْرِ غَيْرَأَنَّهُ طَرِيْقٌ إِلَا حُبِّ لِلَاهِ وَمُرْشِدُ وَيَنْهَالْفَتَ عَنْ غِيْبَةٍ وَنَمِيمَةٍ وَعْنْ كُنْ لِقَولٍ لِدِّيَّانَةِ مُفسِدُ لَكَانَ لَنَا حَبٌّ عُظِيمٌ وَرَغْبَةٌ بِكَثْرَةِ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ نِعمَ المُوحَّدُ وَلَاكِنَّ لَا مِنْ جَهْلِنَا قَلَّدِ يِكْرُّنَا كَمَ أَقَلَّ مِنَّا لِلَّاهِ التعبُّدُ والله وعلم صلى الله عليه وسلم وعلى نبي سيدنا محمد وآخذ دعوانا للحمد لله احراب العلمين اكولو ده بإيلا الهدف هذا just some of the benefits of today's reflection انا كمنا فئين مجددا كمنا فئين
