 بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والصلاة والسلام على أشف الأنبياهي والمرسلين سيدنا محمد سيد الأولين والآخرين وعلى صحابته ومن تبعهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين والعاقبة واللمتقين اللهم جعلنا منهم يا رب العالمين آمين آمين ثم آمين بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ربنا ااتن في الدنيا حسنته وفي الآخرة حسنته وكنا عذابنا ربنا اللهم معلمنا ما ينفعنا وانفعنا بما علمتنا وذنا علماء اللهم افتح لنا فتوح العالي فينا بك يا فتاحه يا عميم وصنده هم وصلم وبارك على سيدنا محمد في الأولين وفي الآخرين وفي كل وقت المحيل أبد الأبدين يا رحم الرحيم وسلم تسلم كثيرا ورمضان مبارك السلام عليكم ورحمة الله يتعالى وبركاته إذا كانت تسأل سيدنا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ماذا يتعالى للمنين؟ ماذا تعتقد أنه قد يقول؟ ماذا يتعالى للمنين إلى قلبيه؟ في كل وقت المنين؟ ما يعتقد أنه قد يقول؟ هل تبقى أي دفنة من المتحدث؟ هذا هو أول مرة في حيث أنه أمه أنه هناك صفة اجمع في أي هاتف ونك لن ترغب في مباشرة هذا هو قد عالي ونحن مجمون وليس سيدنا و في الوقت الأول that we have actually been able to agree on one thing without any difference of opinion he would have said رمضان right؟ رمضان Listen very closely The Prophet ﷺ is once reported to have said رجب شهر الله رجب is the month of Allah و شعبان شهر و شعبان is my month و رمضان شهر الأمة و رمضان is the month of the entire Ummah Did you all just catch that? What just happened there? What just happened there? What just happened? رسول الله ﷺ Gave to his Ummah و عہسين أمو خشفت مشاهد في الكامال رجب أمو يلتلمك 당신 و me ظهرالك رمضان رمضان is my month ولربما يفعلall the dear ones to his heart But the sign of true love once appears سارة و gibi كل شيئ و الن 피�خ و ي speaking about love And He asks for nothing in return such as Rasool Allah s.,,, who gives to his Ummah the greatest thing that he can passively give in terms of time, because He asks for nothing in return such as Rasool Allah s.,,, who gives to his Ummah the greatest thing that he can passively give in terms of time because و يساعد لن يطلق شيئاً في مجرده مثل رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم الذي يقدم له أمه أشياء أكثر من يمكنه أن يقدمه في حالة الوقت أشياء أكثر من الوقت هو رمطان يقدمه لنا يقدمه لنا و هذا هو أمه المنزل للمنزل صلى الله عليه وسلم لأنه فيه يقوم بمشاهده و يقوم بمشاهده في مجرده رمطان و لادة القدر هو أمه المنزل بين مدينة الله و the beloved of Allah's messenger his teacher جبيل عليه السلام لادة القدر هو أمه المنزل أنه تقوم بمشاهده و من المنزل أمه المنزل مع جبيل عليه السلام so it's personal for him it was personal رمطان was heartfelt for the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم such that throughout the entire year before Ramadan he would say just allow us to just extend my life long enough to where I can be in Ramadan again the entire year revolved around Ramadan the entire year was making a path around Ramadan and he hands it to us on a silver plan because we are the most beloved to him after his lord his connection was to his lord and to his ummah he came into the world without ever having the ability to say أبي my father and that's because Allah wanted him to say ربي my lord and he entered into the world scarcely having the opportunity to say أمي my mother and that's because Allah wanted him to say أمي my mother that is the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم والله ما ذكر الحبيب لدى المحبي إلا وإضحى وعليه المشوارنة أين المحبون الذين عليهم بدون نفوسي معا لفائسي هانا بي الله the beloved is not mentioned not even mentioned in the presence of the lover except that he sacrifices everything drunk and out of his wits bewildered at the mere mention of his beloved where are those types of lovers who deem the sacrifice of their souls and everything they possess yet insignificant where are those types of lovers and it is true love that we receive from رسول الله عليه وسلم it is true love that he gifts to us his most precious month he gifts it to us رمضان is ours you have a stake in Ramadan I have a stake in Ramadan we are all shareholders in Ramadan and Ramadan pays out dividends in percentages that exceed a thousand the dividends that are paid exceed a thousand whoever said to you that is the equivalent of a thousand months and they computed to you they computed to you in solar years 82 or 83 some odd years lied to your face they lied to your face if they told you that Laylat al-Qadr was like a thousand months and they're not paying attention for what does Allah سبحانه وتعالى say what does he say Laylat al-Qadr خيلان من الفيشة the night of Qadr the night of decree the night of power is better than a thousand months it's more than a thousand months it surpasses a thousand months and a thousand is the greatest number that the Arabs had they didn't have a number they didn't have million they didn't have all of that they had half and how do you say 100,000 there's half for half a thousand thousands that's the greatest number they had and so when Allah سبحانه وتعالى takes the greatest numbers that the Arabs had and then says it's better than that and who is saying that Allah is saying that then its reward is immeasurable its reward cannot be enumerated it cannot be enumerated so how many lifetimes is it how many lifetimes is it they say it's an entire lifetime it's 82 years it's four generations no it's far greater than that and the Prophet سبحانه وتعالى for a lady in Qadr that was the night that he fell in love with his teacher after he realized who Jibreel Ali سبحانه وتعالى he yearned for that night so much so that the last ten nights of Ramadan every Ramadan the last ten nights they said that the messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى that he would that he would that he would roll up his sleeves right and he wouldn't visit any of his wives he was in the masjid the entire time the daytime and the night time why looking for that night looking for that night that commemorates he's celebrating his anniversary with Jibreel Ali سبحانه وتعالى he's celebrating his his anniversary with Sayyidina Jibreel Ali سبحانه وتعالى just imagine the joy that overcomes the Prophet's heart every Ramadan where he looks forward to spending quality time with his beloved he is going to have quality time with his beloved every Ramadan especially during the last ten nights when Jibreel Ali سبحانه وتعالى comes to him and Jibreel Ali سبحانه وتعالى and Jibreel Ali سبحانه وتعالى is studying the Qur'an with him he is teaching him the Qur'an he is reciting the Qur'an to the Prophet ﷺ and just imagine what is running through the Prophet's head could tonight be the night where you first came to me in the cave could tonight be that night that commemorates when you first came to me in the cave and he doesn't ask the question but he is thinking he is remembering ليلة القطر ليلة القطر and that excitement leads the messenger of Allah ﷺ and don't be a miser with yourself say whenever you hear his name and whenever you don't hear his name say never forget the Salat and the Prophet ﷺ that is our key that is our key to the companions that we so desire that we can become companions of the messenger of Allah ﷺ if we just allow ourselves to receive so that excitement that the messenger of Allah ﷺ to skip Iftar all ten of those nights and to make his Iftar his Suhoor all ten of those nights nothing is going to distract him from meeting to breathe on his hand nothing is going to distract him from celebrating that night and so the Sahaba they wanted to do the same thing as the messenger of Allah ﷺ and he forbade them from doing that so it's part of his own حسائل it's part of what's personal to him and he gives us that on a silver plate he just hands that over to us and says all of the Barakah of Ramadan and all of the blessings the virtues of Ramadan all of the merits all of the goodness that will come all of the all of that I'm gifting to the ummah while that this is the gift that we receive this is the gift that we receive how do we respond to the gift how do we respond to the gift of the messenger of Allah ﷺ what do we do with these nights these precious precious nights what do we do with them how do we spend them how do we spend them how do we show our gratitude for the gift the great purpose of Ramadan is that which comes after Ramadan and I mentioned it today as many of you were not there but the we treat this month as though it was a honeymoon this month was like a honeymoon and we can't we greet one another we socialize with one another we eat at one another's homes we exchange greeting cards Ramadan greeting cards where they're standing in prayer together laughing, smiling, embracing and we can't and as the month goes by we wonder why is it going by so fast we want to hold on to it we're celebrating this month so we're on our honeymoon this month but what happens the very day of eat we file for divorce we file for divorce and since we're initiating the divorce we have to return the dowry and that dowry is the Qur'an itself the mahad the mahad is the Qur'an itself and so the Qur'an stays on the shelf the very day of eat there's no more recitation of the Qur'an there's no more Juzab there's no more guilt that sets in the heart when we miss our Juzab there's no more tahajjud we oversleep ask for Juzab and this is supposed to be a pillar of this religion meaning that if we take this month seriously this pillar what is the pillar meant for what use is a pillar if it is not built upon what use is it having a pillar with no building that stands on top so the question is what are you and I going to build on the pillar of Ramadan because we're in it right now we're firmly establishing the pillar into the ground with every time that we stand before our Lord and with every fast we are placing this pillar firmly into the ground so that we can build upon it and when we build the pillar itself will withstand the weight of what we build but if the pillar is not firmly established in the ground anything can shake it and then the pillar is in the ground and we don't build anything on top of it then any wind will make it collapse so the purpose of Ramadan the real blessing of Ramadan is what we do with Ramadan after Ramadan and the Messenger of Allah had separation and anxiety with Ramadan Ramadan was not easy for the Prophet ﷺ to just let go he had separation and anxiety with Ramadan and perhaps that is why he fasted every Monday and Thursday after Ramadan the six days of Shawwad the three days after the bright nights he fasted the ten days of Ful Hijjah the ninth and tenth Muharram he fasted and almost all of Shaaban he fasted Shaaban in preparation for Ramadan the way that you and I pray are Sunnah before any thought to exalt the month to exalt the obligation to exalt to exalt whoever exalts the symbols of Allah that is from the taqwa in the hearts so let us exalt this great symbol let us remember the days of Allah and these are the days these are the days remind them about the days of Allah these are the days of forgiveness after the days of compassion and mercy after coming out of ten days of seeking the compassion of Allah and the mercy of Allah for ourselves Allah follows that up and saying you want my compassion you want my mercy you want this for yourself then you have to spend the next ten days forgiving everyone who has ever done anything against you have we forgiven you we are in the days of forgiveness now whom have we forgiven with whom have we held grudges against whom have we held grudges in these ten months if you want compassion if I want compassion tonight tomorrow we call that person whom we haven't spoken to for years whom we have wronged or who has wronged us and we forgive them and we seek their forgiveness that's what the month requires of us outside of this month outside of this month whoever fasts Mondays and Thursdays they have their deeds presented before Allah and Allah says forgive them forgive all of those who are fasting on these two days except except for the one who has beef except for the one who has a gripe with someone else except for the one who has a chip on his shoulder with someone else except for one who has cut off someone else no they are not forgiven even though you're fasting on those days as an intercession that Allah SWT forgive your sins on the day that the deeds are displayed before him the forgiveness does not come down if you have anything in your heart toward any other human being and that is outside of Ramadan what about the ten days of forgiveness in Ramadan for the very heart of Ramadan the middle of Ramadan is the ten days of forgiveness the ten days of forgiveness that is where we are now forgiveness those who show compassion those who show compassion shall be shown compassion by the lord of compassion have compassion to all who are on earth and the one who is who transcends his skies his heavens shall have compassion upon you so these are the days that we are living may Allah SWT enable us to respond to the gift as as the gift deserves as the gift giver deserves and the prophet is more entitled to the faithful than they are to their very own souls and it is because he is he has given us everything he has given us everything and he will help nothing he helped nothing back for himself he helped nothing back for himself he gave himself entirely may Allah SWT enable us to hand over our souls to the doctor of those souls تقبون ليفوسي ودوحة وصورة ورعية وصورة ورعية ورعية وصورة ورعية وصورة ورعية
