 تشرف بالشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دادا دادا وياله من شراف عظيمي ووصى معادا يستعين إلهه على ذكره وشكر بالحسن على ذكره وشكر بالحسن يعبدو ومعادا يساعد معادا لحاول أساعدة من الله على ذكره وشكر بالحسن ومعادا يساعدوه على ذكره وشكر بالحسن ويساعدوه على ذكره وعاد من جبل رضي الله تعالى عنه ووخل من الغنينا وأقريب أن الله يowąض ب Tibetan ان الله also gives him the ability to perfect his عبادة and that is that which is asking الله سبحانه وتعالى to give you the ability to remember him and to show him gratitude and also to perfect your عبادة for him to give you the ability in all of those three it is from أعضم المطالب one of the greatest things request from الله وأجلها and it is also from the greatest thing that a person can gain which is three things اذكر والشكر وحسنة عبادة تابة في سناني أبي داود it has been authentically transmitted in سناني أبي داود ومسند الإمام إحمد انا إمام محمد ريتي داوسه إنه مسند أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال that the prophet said يا معاد أو معاذ والله إني لأحبك معاد I love you والله إني لأحبك I love you and a sign of a person who loves you is that they guide you to that which is good and they tell you what will bring you greatness prosperity and success في الدنيا والآخرة that's a sign of a مشفق ناصح أي محب one who loves so the messengers said to معاد والله إني لأحبك والله I love you بي الله تبارك وتعالى destroy the رافظة قبحهم الله a companion like معاذ who the prophet said to him والله إني لأحبك the prophet didn't just say I love you he said to him والله بي الله إني لأحبك I love you they want an insult and they want a ridicule a noble company like that and take him out of the fold of an Islam trying to say that the prophet loved the disbeliever and so by Allah by saying that he loves the disbeliever the prophet said والله إني لأحبك did he say once no the prophet said والله إني لأحبك again to معاد I love you والله I love you معاد and then after that he said to him اصيك يا معاد معاد I advise you لا تدعانا do not leave off في دبوري كل صلاة after every prayer to say اللهم أعيني على ذكركة والله give me the ability in your remembrance وشكركة your gratitude وحسن عبادتك and also give me the ability to perfect my عبادة for you he specified three things اذكر والشكر وحسن عبادة and that shows you على انها افضل ما يطلب العبد من الله العول عليه it is from the greatest thing that I've slave ask Allah for help and that also teaches us a lesson which is we are never able to do anything we have no حيلة and we have no قوة we have no strength and we have no ability if we fast it's because Allah has given us the ability and he's allowed us to if we pray is because of his him and what is very powerful and amazing is that he gives us the ability and gives us the strength for all of that and then he rewards us on it he rewards us for coming with fasting for coming with praying for coming with all of that but it was all from him that we were able to do it in the first place and when a person thinks about that and really analyzes that he realizes how his lord is very merciful to him and how he is deficient in showing gratitude to Allah and how short he is in remembering Allah سبحانه وتعالى so we ask Allah سبحانه وتعالى اللهم اعنى على ذكرك وشكرك وحسن عبادتك or Allah give us the ability to remember you to show you gratitude and to be able to perfect our عبادة and that is why اللهم اخبرنا في صورة الفاتحة أننا نقول إياك نعبود وإياك نستعين أنت الله فقط نحوك وحسن عبادتك وحسن عبادتك وحسن عبادتك لأننا لا نستطيع أن نفعل عبادة الله سبحانه وتعالى يجب علينا استعانة وستعانة نفسه عبادة ويجب أن يترك المنزل يفعل ذلك يجب أن يفعل ذلك يجب أن يفعل ذلك الله سبحانه وتعالى يجب أن يفعلنا ويجب علينا all the good that we're looking for and he would have protected from us all of the harm that we wish اتنقل لنا لديك لا لامل فكذلك كانت في حمل الشرائع يجهد اتنقل لنا وكذلك كانت في حمل الشرائع يجهد اتنقل لنا بأن لا يزرب رطباً لسانك هذه تعين على كل الأمور وتسعيده وانه يساعد الشخص الذي يفتحه على الوصول على تسعيده ويجب أن يساعده على كل الأمور وتسعيده لتسعيده على كل الأمور وتسعيده على كل الأمور بيوثى الشيخ عبد الحمان ناصل السعدي ورحمه الله يذهب إلى تكتبه another great powerful benefit of a ذكر and that is when a man came to visit the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم the author here is trying to point out in these two lines that a man came to the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم حديث عبد الله ابن بسر he narrated it رضي الله تعالى عنه when he is finding Tirmidhi ابن ماجه and the wording here is the wording of a Tirmidhi الشيخة للباني graded this hadith to be صحيح رجلا قال يا رسول الله ما came to the messenger and he said to the messenger إن شرائع الإسلام قد كتورة عليها that the legal jurisprudence have become too much on me I mean أحكام for me to know them has become too much on me فأخبرني بشيء أتشبث به tell me of something which I can hold on to strongly because the word أتشبث means أيتمسك به I can hold on to قال the prophet said لا يزال أما لا يزال لسانك رطبا من ذكر الله let your tongue remain consistent and moist in the remembrance of Allah سبحانه وتعالى many people have misunderstood this hadith especially people of the saw-wolf and whatnot so let's look at first the question where he asked the prophet عليه الصلاة والسلام he said to him إن شرائع الإسلام قد كتورة عليها that the legal jurisprudence of the religion has become too much on to me is this man in any way form a shape asking for the prophet to uplift any of the jurisprudence rulings of him is he trying to say to the prophet I can't do it leave me I don't want to do it is that what he's asking for or is it that he wants the prophet عليه الصلاة والسلام to inform him and to tell him something that if he does it will make it easy for him to come with the jurisprudence rulings that he found heavy it's the second so the man came to the prophet on that concern and what did the prophet عليه الصلاة والسلام advise him that's why the author says وأوصى لشخص قد أتها لنصيحة a man who came on the grounds of advice the messenger advised him and he said to him وقد كان في حمل الشراء إعي يجهدوا and this individual was striving hard in carrying the legislation and trying to implement everything so he advised him to do what البقى لا يزال رطبا لسانك هذه توعين على كل الأمور وتسعيدوا that your tongue is consistent and it is also moist in the remembrance of Allah سبحانه وتعالى look what the author says توعين على كل الأمور وتسعيدوا he is trying to teach us this point which is توعين it will help you توعين على كل الأمور in all matters وتسعيدوا the remembrance of Allah makes matters easy وتسعيدوا means that you are going to gain the doors of happiness تومق نينة الراحة السعادة happiness and tranquility and that's what we already spoke about so the author so the companion who came to the prophet عليه الصلاة والسلام was instructed by remembering Allah matters will become easy for you فعل الأوامري وترك النواهي doing as you are commanded to do and to stay away from that which you are prohibited from it will become easy for you if you come with the remembrance of Allah so when somebody says to you the religion is becoming hard I am finding it hard to wear the hijab I am finding it hard to fast I am finding it hard to pray فجر we say to them بقى لا يزل لسانك بقى لا يزل رطب اللسانك هذه do not let your tongue dry and don't make it one that becomes dry from the remembrance of Allah make it moist consistently in the remembrance of Allah سبحانه وتعالى you know why the remembrance of Allah is actually what gives enthusiastic makes a person enthusiastic and energetic anyone who has woken up in the morning has read his Quran has done his أذكار الصباح goes out he can take on the world how energetic and enthusiastic he is but when you leave your house and you haven't remembered Allah and you haven't read your Quran and you haven't done your أذكار and you leave والله the world feels heavy you can't move a leg you feel distressed you feel like you don't want to get out of bed and all of that is because because of your heart what we need to truly understand and I always say this is that you see a person who is very big spends hours in the gym physically big and this individual lifts 100 kg for example of 50, 60, 70 some of them even bigger than that the bar the metal bar bends from the side how heavy the weight that he's picking you see 2 people have to help him one on this side on his left and one on his right have to both help him pick up this bar and do it and he does it that same person maybe unable to lift the duvet of themselves to go to Salat Al-Fajr and to pray it what happened to that physical ability where did it go the issue is not your arms and how big they are it's not your legs and how strong they are and how powerful they are look at the weight so he picks up with his leg why can't he walk why is he finding it hard to do look at it pay attention the water that he places on his face at Fajr to do with it is not harder than the burning that you're doing when you're going to the gym the water is easier the issue is the heart the heart is dead or it's ill so the person won't be able to so that's why the author here is saying when we were young and my father when we memorized the Quran we found the secular knowledge so easy they made matters very easy for us the heavd of the Quran going into heavd and memorization and learning even studying some of the most complicated things that when I was young I used to do I used to do I used to do I used to do I used to do I used to do I used to do when I was young I used to find hard it became easy after I embarked on memorizing the Quran and it's seen that a lot of the times the حفاد are the best in school you see so the being with you consistently is what helps you it helps you on what it helps you in doing other acts of obedience you may find hard that you may find hard when our messenger peace be upon him he would find call out to Bilal and what would he say to Bilal يا بيلال ريحنا بالصلاة because the salah consists of zikr عبادة bring us ريحنا بالصلاة come on do the adhan for us this is going to bring us tranquility طبعنينا صح it's sad that الشيطان has fooled and duped many of us to when we become depressed and we feel doubt instead of going for a zikr he makes us go more into sins listen to music ya instead of running to the Quran and doing zikr the person goes and goes to listening to the voice of shaytan because Allah says in the Quran وستفز من استطعت منهم بصوتك وأجلب عليهم بخيلك وشاركهم في الأموال والأولادي وعيدهم وما يعيدهم الشيطان وإلا غورورا the scholars they said this verse means that this is the voice of shaytan so when you're listening to music you're listening to the shaytan himself and remember can shaytan and zikr be in the same no because before when did we take that the zikr what does it do it repels shaytan and it gets rid of shaytan but he will make sure that you don't do zikr and that you listen to music but you're in a state of depression you're already feeling down he'll push you even more he'll push you even even more into music go out clubbing drink fornicate your heart was at probably let's say you were at a state where your heart was ill he wants to make your heart dead move you from the stage of illness because we said that the hearts are three types aren't they a heart which is حي قلب which is سليم which is the one that's going to benefit the day of judgment يوم لا ينفع عمال ولا بانون إلا من أطلعها بقلب قلب which is سليم the second one is قلب which is مريض what ill heart is the heart of the believer sometimes he goes to do the righteous actions and he remembers Allah and he cries and then sometimes shaytan grabs him again and he catches him he's caught up in sins and haram and whatnot you're at that stage and you're becoming depressed because you've been burdened with sins and you're doing sins instead of coming to Allah and working towards the remembrance of Allah shaytan will come and he will pull you away to the third stage which is the worst which is قلب which is مييت and dead person yeah ومالي مييت ومالي مييت إيلام and the dead person has no pain you can poke him all day you can slap him instead this is what happened to this person pain and everything has become numb now and that's what he wants to take you to now he mentioned further that مييت the author now also mentioned another benefit of ذكر all of these are benefits of ذكر which is the plants of jannah is through your remembrance of Allah so every time you remember Allah you do a ذكر what happens a plant is seeded a seed is planted a seed is planted in جنة for you and that is based on the حديث ألمام الترميديو narrated عبدالله من المسعود said اللقيت إبراهيم ليلة أسر يبي فقال يا محمد the professor said I met Nabi الله إبراهيم the night in which I was ascended up فقال he said to me يا محمد أقر أمتك من السلام Nabi الله إبراهيم said convey my greetings to your people وأخبرهم and tell them أن الجنة طيبة التربح جنة الله أكبر how the prophets want جنة for the people and this is the reality إبراهيم this is not his people but he wants Nabi الله أحمد his people to enter jannah the righteous people always want good for people and they want good for the people and they want good for the people and they want jannah for people they don't want people's destruction they don't like people's calamity and agony جنة for everybody that's where they want everybody to go so he tells him say to them جنة طيبة التربح that the earth or the earth of jannah is طيبة when it's a land that takes in plant the seed it will produce عضبة الماء it's nice it's not bitter or salty water وأنها قيعان and it's earth that produces things so the sand is good also it produces good وأن غيراسها سبحان الله والحمد لله ولا إله إلا الله والله أكبر and the plants that are placed so every single time a slave is excessive in the remembrance of Allah the when you go to jannah your gardens are going to be very green it's going to look beautiful you don't have to do a lot of hard work you don't have to scream you don't have to stay in the garden it's beautiful when it's season it's always beenchuckles it always been يجب أن تقوم بيضعه. يجب أن تقوم بيضعه. لا يجب أن تقوم بيضعه. فقط من يجب أن تقوم بيضعه ويقول سبحان الله والحمد لله ولا إله إلا الله والله أكبر بيقول هذا ومساعدة. ويذهب على أن تقوم بيضعه في جنةك. وأخبراء ومفتحة وخبراءنا عليه الصلاة والسلام بجنة عدنين. every time that the person increases in the remembrance of Allah it's a plant that's increased in his jannah. بجنة عدنين. جنة عدنين is what? It's جنة الخلد. It's the jannah of eternity. والمساكين تمهدوا. Also houses and place of residency is prepared. Stations are also prepared for them. Because this person is moving from one house to another house. So he has to be to keep up with him. And for every his house is getting very renovated for him. He's sitting with you. Work is going on for him. It's a place where eyes have not seen. And I've never heard of the likes of this place that you're getting. And he has never come to the heart of any true believer or any human being whatsoever. That which Allah is putting forward for you. Just by your tongue moving. Everybody who remembers Allah and comes with obedience and worship. Then Allah is preparing for them houses and place of residence. He also stated that Allah makes mention of his servant and is with him in all affairs. Setting them are right. The author now mentions an extra two benefits of a ذكر. He says و أخبر عن the first one this is. و أخبر عن الله يذكر و عبده. The first benefit here from all the benefits that we've already mentioned. The first one in this line of poetry is الله تبارك وتعالى The Lord of the heavens and the earth. The one who created you and the one who sustains you is remembering you. فذكروني أذكركم. Remember me So I will remember you. The Prophet ﷺ he said حديث which is collected by بخاري المسلم السن صحيحين من حديث أبي هوريلا ربي الله تعالى عنه That he said يقول الله تعالى الله سيز فإن ذكرني في نفسه If the slave remembers me in himself he remembers me ذكرته في نفسه I also remember him الله سيز So if he remembers me by himself الله will remember you alone وإن ذكرني في ملعن And if he remembers me in a gathering الله says ذكرته في ملعن خيل منهم I'm going to remember him in a gathering better than the gathering which he remembered me. والله is enough for a person وكفى بذكرش شرافا Enough honour for you as a person who's remembering Allah is and enough for you honour and virtue is أن يتكره ربه الله تعالى تعالى the Lord of the heavens and the earth to remember you There's no honour greater than that. Today if you were informed that a leader or somebody spoke about you or your name came up in a gathering of righteous people or in a gathering of highly respected people they brought up your name you'll get so happy you'll feel so excited and so amazed you'll be baffled taken back because your name was just mentioned by who like him by normal human beings like you فما أبالك what do you think if Allah is the one who remembers you and he doesn't just remember you he remembers you in the gathering of his angels and he says for all my angels do you see my slave over there فلان ابن فلان do you see him now look what he's doing he's remembering me and your mention your name comes up in the discussion between Allah and his angels that is شرف that is an honour enough for you that is a virtue that would give everything to gain but Allah has given it to us for a very simple thing which is to remember him by saying سبحان الله والحمد لله ولا إله إلا الله والله أكبر words that are very light on the tongue gives us something very high but the issue here right now is the issue is we don't know the value we don't yet feel the value of Allah remembering us Allah remembering us with his angels in his gathering we still haven't felt that but we have somehow felt that if a leader today was to remember us or a group of respected scholars were to mention our name and bring it up in a gathering today if you look at the biography of scholars who would you see that praises them other scholars right and the praise of the other scholars gives this person what a very high status if other scholars reference them then you think yourself الله أكبر the matter is greater when Allah is the one doing that فذكروني أذكركم remember me I remember you that itself I said كفا بذاكر شرفا وفضلا that is enough virtue for you that is enough nobility for you as an individual then the author mentions the second which is ومعه على كل الأمور يسدد the second virtue that he mentions here is الله تبارك وتعالى is the one who keeps you upright in all of your affairs الله is going to make sure that you as an individual don't deviate don't curve that you stay steadfast and upright الله makes sure that he helps you and he aids you and supports you سبحانه وتعالى ألمام البخاريو narrated معلقا ألمام البخاريو ألمام أحمد narrated in his Musnad موصول and connected and others have also brought it موصول and connected it is connected and it is authentic that the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said الله تبارك وتعالى قال الله وتعالى أنا مع عبد ماذا قلني I am with my slave why else he remembers me وتحركة بي شفتها and his tongue moves and his lips move I am with him as long as my slave remembers me and his lips are moving and remembers of me I am with him this word that is used in the Hadith is very powerful أنا مع عبد I am with my slave this is this is a specific type of معية it is the type which means I am going to keep him upright I am going to protect him I am going to give him the ability of coming with righteous deeds and greatness I am going to protect him from any hardship and pain ابن القيم سرينيس كتاب الوابل الصيب هي معية بالقرب it is the معية meaning الله is close to you والولاية الله is taking you as an ally والمحبة والنصر it is the معية that Allah is going to give you victory and he loves you and that Allah is going to give you the ability and he said it is like the statement of Allah الله is with those who are pious and it is like the statement of Allah والله مع الصابر الله is with those who are patient and it is also like the verse of Allah والله مع المحسينين الله is with those who come with excellency لا تحزن إن الله معنا it is also like the statement of Allah don't be sad الله تبارك وتعالى is with you ابن القيم ولي ذاكر من هذه المعية نصيب وافر كما في الحديث الإلهي I said that same معية معية القرب والولاية والمحبة والنصرة والتوفق that is the معية also the ذاكر just like the متقي because if Allah is with those who are patient that is the معية which معية is it معية القرب والولاية the تقي has that right and also the مع صابر the صابر has it the patient one and also the محسين has it all of them who have it ابن القيم says ولي ذاكر من هذه المعية نصيب وافر the one who remembers Allah has a great portion of it and then he brings the Hadith أنا مع عبد ماذا قراني وتحغرك بشفة I am with my slave as long as he remembers me and his tongue and his lips are moving in my remembrance ابن القيم carries on saying after a while والمعية الحاصلة ولي ذاكري معية the معية that is for the one who remembers Allah لا يشبه ها شيء nothing is like it nothing is equal to it وهي أخص من المعية رادة it is even more specific than the معية الحاصلة للمحسين والمتقي that is for the one who has تقوى and the one who has إحسان who comes with إحسان ذاكري موهسر وهي معية لأن إتسمعية لا تدرك ها العبارة ولا تلالها صفة ولا تعلق ولا تعلم بالذوغي لأن إتسمعية that cannot be understood by any wordings that a person puts forward and it can't be gained with any characteristics and it can't be known through taste and it's right because these ones who are the محسين and the تقي they are ذاكري they are remembering Allah already إحسان is a remembrance of Allah the محسين is one who remembers Allah so why does ذكر have a معية when already إحسان and تقوى is already a form of remembrance of Allah is because there is an extra it's an extra station greater than the صابر than the محسين than the تقي and that has been those two characteristics have been I have been I have been I have been I have been I have been I have been those two which the author is mentioning those two that he just mentioned which is what was the first one that Allah will remember you and Allah will mention you as long as you are mentioning him that was the first right and the second one was what Allah is going to make your matters upright for you and keep you steadfast and Allah is going to give you victory and Allah is going to aid you and support you right when you are found in this حليث where is it found the first one is that I am what my slave thinks of me and I am with him if he remembers me that's the second one the first one of the virtues that the author mentioned which is
