 وأقول في القرآن ما جاءت به آياته فهو الكاريم المنزال وأقول قال الله جل جلاله والمصطف الهدي ولا أتأواله الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثناء الجميل وأشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهدي السبيل وأشهد أن محمد العبد هو رسوله صلى الله عليه وعليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد هذا إن شاء الله تعالى is our third episode and we are going to carry on speaking about الأمر من مكر الله في هذا الأمر إن شاء الله تعالى أريد أن أتحدث عن المهمة لتساعدة رفوجي الله من your evil soul and Shaytan and how that helps towards not being a person who feels secure from the plans of Allah سبحانه وتعالى the messenger ﷺ and his khutab that he would do عليه صلى الله عليه وسلم the sermons that he would do and any important reminder or lecture that the messenger ﷺ wanted to do he ﷺ would start by mentioning and saying we seek refuge in Allah the Prophet would say from the evils of our nafs and the evils of our actions so the nafs is something you seek refuge in Allah from it is the nafs that wants to feel safe from the plans and the punishment of Allah سبحانه وتعالى ألمام ترمي دي نريتر نسونا من حديث أبي هوريرا رضي الله تعالى عنه that Abu Bakr he came to the messenger and he said يا رسول الله مرني بشيء أقوله إذا أصبحت وإذا أمسيته Abu Bakr he said to the Prophet ﷺ save to me command me something or Prophet of Allah صدقوا هذه الأمة command me something that I could say in the morning and in the evening the messenger ﷺ said to him قل say اللهم علم الغيب والشهادة or Allah the Lord of the universe the seen and the unseen فاطر السماوات والرض the one who created the earth the one who created the sky the heavens رب كل شيء ومليكة the master of everything the king of everything أشهد أن لا إله إلا أنت I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except you أعودوا بك I seek refuge in you من شر نفسي I seek refuge in you from the evils of my soul ومن شر الشيطاني and I seek refuge in you from شيطان وشركه and you can also say وشاركه وشركه means and his helpers I seek refuge in shaitan and those who help him and aid him in misguiding the people شيطان has friends he has allies his people who are working for him وإن الشياطين لا يحون إلى أولياءهم ليجادي لكم شيطان has friends and colleagues and helpers who help him who help him in misguiding the people so I seek refuge in Allah from شيطان and those who help him and if we read it as وشركه it means I seek refuge in Allah from شيطان وشركه and the instrument that he uses to misguide others I seek refuge in Allah from that as well the prophet said to Abu Bakr قله say this دعاء إذا أصبحت وإذا أمسيتها say in the morning say in the evening وإذا أخذت مرض جعك and say it when you go to your bed what we benefit from this حديث is or this دعاء that the prophet taught Abu Bakr رضي الله تعالى عنه is that we seek refuge in Allah from the evil of our soul we seek refuge in Allah from شيطان شيطان is planning and plotting against us he wants to misguide us he wants us to feel safe from the punishment of Allah سبحانه و تعالى and he wants us to believe that we're good and we're righteous and there's nothing wrong with us that's what shaitan wants to convince us and he wants Allah's punishment to come to us when we're least expecting it الله سبحانه و تعالى says in the Quran وما أبرئ نفسه إن النفس لأمارة بسوء إلا ما رحم ربي إن ربي غفور الرحيم الله تعالى he elaborates here الله تعالى points out that this it's one that calls us to evil الله says وما أبرئ نفسه إن النفسه barely the nefs what is it لأمارة بسوء it commands evil it calls the person to evil and then Allah says إلا ما رحم ربي except those who Allah has bestowed upon them he's messy they're an exception there are people who Allah سبحانه و تعالى has guided them and their nefs is nefs which is مطمئنة a tranquil soul a nefs that is in line with Allah's commandments and stays away from the prohibitions of Allah سبحانه و تعالى they have tranquility in their life this is the nefs that we're all trying to work towards in order to achieve it and gain it إن النفس لأمارة بسوء إلا ما رحم ربي إن ربي غفور الرحيم verily Allah is one that calls evil رحيم verily Allah is one that is forgiving a very merciful one so if Allah is forgiving and is merciful and our nefs is calling us to evil who should we run to we should run to Allah and not to our nefs that is calling us to misguidance that wants to bring upon us destruction we seek refuge in Allah from that nefs we ask Allah to protect us from that nefs because if we do we will in sha Allah be we will not be from those who feel safe from the punishment of Allah سبحانه وتعالى أصلاة بارك وتعالى in the ayah والذين تبوا والدارة والإيمان من قبلهم يحبون منهاجر إليهم ولا يجدون في صدورهم حاجة منما أوتوا ويؤثرون على أنفسهم ولو كان بهم خصاصة ومن يوقش حنفسه فأولئك هم المفلحون the last part of the verse is what I want الله سبحانه وتعالى يقول ومن يوقش حنفسه anyone who is protected from the stinginess of his nefs فولئك هم المفلحون verily they are the successful ones anyone who is protected from the evil of his nefs verily he is from the successful ones anyone who is protected from the bad traits that are generally present in the human nefs فولئك هم المفلحون verily they are from the successful ones this nefs you need Allah to help you to from the evils that he can do to you this nefs it's problematic and Subhan Allah it's evil traits become clear at times sometimes when you're least expecting it at times when you don't even think it's gonna do something it does it and a lot of people they learn themselves in situations they get to know who they really are they didn't know themselves before that they say I wasn't expecting myself to do that why did I do that how did that even come from me how did that even occur from me and the reason for that is it is what the scholars call كاماءين النفسيك it is those hidden evil traits in the nefs which pops out in random situations so you need to keep cleansing and keep cleansing and keep cleansing and get those traits that are hiding pull them out expose them out of your body and bring them out into the open and deal with them don't hide them don't cover them up if you've got a wound on your body you don't place creams on your body what you do is you've got a wound you go to a doctor or you do surgery or you do something and then if you want to put cream on it you can the cream is not gonna hey it's not gonna remove the wound the wound is deeply into your body so you need to get a doctor's observation وما يقشوح نفسه فأولائك هوم المفلحون if you are protected from the evil of your nefs then wallahi you are a successful person شيخ الإسلام إبنوطيم has said something very powerful he said he said that there is إبنوطيميا mentioned that there was the great scholars of Islam the early scholars of Islam they mentioned إبنوطيميا is referencing them or quoting them he is saying that they said مام النفسه there is no soul إلا وفيها ما في نفسه فرعون except that in the nefs there is no individual except in his nefs is what was in the nefs of فرعون the transgression and the wrongdoing and the crimes that فرعون had in him يعني ده طوغيان that فرعون had in him that that tyrannical ignorant oppressive mindset that فرعون had every nefs has that what is the difference غير أن فرعون قدر أظهر the difference here is فرعون had the ability to execute that feeling because he was in control he was in a position he brought that trait out he brought it out وغيره عجزة فعضمر and other than فرعون they were unable to do it because they are not they don't have the followers and they don't have the power and the money and whatnot so what do they do because they are unable they hid that trait you see so this nefs if this statement is يعني said like that and that is why we always have to remember that we don't want to worship our nefs الله تبارك وتعالى say in the Quran أفأنت تكون عليه وكيلة أفأنت تكون عليه وكيلة those who take their desires as their lord they worship their nefs their nefs tells them to do something they do it whereas if Allah was to tell them to do something else they wouldn't do it their nefs is what commands them their nefs is what prohibits them their nefs is the source of legislation for them not Allah سبحانه وتعالى in his messenger الله says من تخذ إلهه هوا the one that has taken his desires as his lord his إله is what his حوا his desires is no one can help you if you're one who follows his desires in everything and that you do everything that comes to your heart and mind he instructed and he himself used to do it that we make the following by saying give my nefs give it give it give it the fear that it needs make it righteous make my nefs conscious of you Allah give my nefs give my nefs that is the the messenger used to say what you don't want it to happen is that you come and when you come the day of judgment you thought that you did righteous action you thought you exerted a lot of effort but you come the day of judgment and what really is waiting for you is the punishment and the raht of Allah سبحانه وتعالى what is going to happen to you you're going to be gobsmacked you're going to be mind-boggled what has happened, what is taking place in that situation there's no running away there's no one who can help you if it was for the oppresses if the oppresses and the wrongdoers what to have if they want to have what is on this if Allah is on this if Allah is on this if Allah is on this if you want to come and for that if you want to come and for that and for that ماذا يفعلون في هذه الأرض؟ إذا كانوا يفعلون كل شيء في هذه الأرض، إذا كانوا يفعلون بها، فالهم يفعلون المقاومات ماذا يفعلون؟ لفتدوا به من سوء العداب يوم القيامة لن يفعلون كل ذلك لتسجيل أنفسهم من الهو فاية ثم الله سبحانه وتعالى يقول وبدأ لهم من الله ما لم يكونوا يحتزبون كانت أكتب جداً لهم كانت أكتب جداً لهم أن كل the good that they did was really not for them وبدأ لهم أكتب جداً لهم that which they were doing ما لم يقولوا يحتزبون and they came the day of judgment they came to the day of judgment and they saw that which they were not expecting مجاهد منجبرن the great تعبع the great scholar اخذت سوالة عبدالله بن عباس، ايمام انتفسير الذي تصنع جميع تفسير من ابن عباس ثلاثة من start to end من start to end من beginning to end انتصر جميع تفسير من ابن عباس مجاهد ابن جبرين مجاهد انه قال عندما وصل على هذه الآية يقول اعملوا اعمالها اولى هم دخلوا تنجنون توهموا انها حسنات فايدة هي سيئات هم دخلوا تنجنون يعني اصباحة وهموا أنها حسنات ، فهموا أنها كانت جيدة ، فإذا هي سيئات ، ولكن في الحقيقة they were sins at which they did they either did it with no intention so it became an evil action or they did it in a way that wasn't in accordance to the sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ so they were doing innovation so all of it became clear to them that all the crying and all the dancing that they thought that they were going to get closer to Allah with all of it is null and void وبدأ لهم من الله ما لم يكونوا يحتسبون also it was said regarding this Tafseer on the ayah some of the Mufassireen they said عملوا أعمالة توهموا أنهم يتوبون منها قبل الموت فأدركهم الموت قبل أن يتوبوا another Tafseer another meaning was given to the verse which was they did actions يعني they committed crimes they did sins they disobeyed Allah سبحانه وتعالى and they thought that they would repent they said we're young right now we're still in our teens إن شاء الله تعالى we're going to repent and إن شاء الله تعالى that will be when we grow older right now we just want to have fun we're just young I'll get there and what happened to them is death came to them before they could repent فأدركهم الموت قبل أن يتوبوا death came to them before they could repent they did not live their lives with preparation they didn't work they came with they felt secure from the plans and the plots of Allah سبحانه وتعالى Allah's plan and Allah's punishment they found from it safety security there's nothing to worry about عكريمة ابن عمارن he said جزع محمد ابن المنكدر عند موته جزعا شديدة عكريمة ابن عمارن he mentioned that محمد ابن المنكدر the great habee when he was on his deathbed he became very very frightened فقيل له they said to him ما هذا الجزع why are you so frightened why are you so scared why are you so nervous there is a verse in the book of Allah in which I fear I am scared of and the ayah is وبدالهم من الله ما لم يكونوا يحتسبون it has become clear to them وبدالهم أي ظهر لهم it has become clear to them from Allah سبحانه وتعالى ما لم يكونوا يحتسبون that which they did not expect فأنا أخشى أن يبدو لي ما لم أكن أحتسب and he said I am scared that it will become clear to me that which I was not expecting he was scared he didn't have this trait that many of us have that we are good we are noble we have no one can judge us as the mindset that we came with and now we are standing in front of Allah سبحانه وتعالى ليس بيننا و بين الله ترجمان and there is no one between us and Allah who is Subhanahu وتعالى he is right in front of us he is questioning us interrogating us سبحانه وتعالى what are we going to say that day Allah is not one that we can deceive Allah is not one we can take a lawyer for and that lawyer will get the case dismissed and inshallah وتعالى maybe that might be a means of me not entering hellfire that won't work that lawyer no solicitor nothing will work for you that day your whole entire actions are documented and they are written even before you speak even before you utter any word it is all going to be presented to you and it's all there أبو حرير رضي الله وتعالى عنه narrated before I mentioned the Hadith of Abu Huraira what I want to mention is that محمد بن المون كدر was a great imam who did many Hajj he came with many righteous actions with that being said he still was scared did he become a person who depended on his righteous action and say but I did this but I did this but I did this but I did this is that what he said I mean the Prophet told us in the Hadith of Abu Huraira I am going to mention it is both narrated that the Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم he said ولم يفصق رجعك يوم والدت أمه anyone who goes and does Hajj and does not commit any sin in Hajj does not come with fisq does not have sexual intercourse that person will come back like the day his mother gave birth to him sinless that's how he is going to come he said this hadith is going to applies on me I have not only done one Hajj but I have done many Hajj so I am a person who Allah SWT has forgiven me for my sins he could have said that but he didn't rely on that he didn't rely on that he knows that Allah SWT is the one that he is going to go to so we need to be very we need to be very cautious and we also have to be we need to take heed there is a story I want to mention of how important it is that we take heed in all of our actions and that we don't delay anything for tomorrow Al-A'asha who is an Arab poet a well-known poet of the poets of the Arabs and Quraish knew of Al-A'asha and everyone knew Al-A'asha Al-A'asha's words were very highly respected if Al-A'asha said something it was memorised and it would circulate it would circulate in the society everyone would be speaking about his lines of poetry he had influence Al-A'asha made the decision that he was going to take Islam he said I am no longer going to be upon this way I need to rectify myself I need to go to Muhammad and take Islam so he got his writing beast ready he put his belonging on there and he made his way to Medina Quraish heard of this so they they ran after him and they intercepted him and they told him Al-A'asha what are you trying to do why are you trying to take Islam for what do you need what is it that we can do for you so he dismissed everything that they put on the table he said I am going to go to Muhammad and I am going to take Islam and I am going to take his religion in which he propagates and he calls to they said to him that did you not hear Muhammad he bans and he forbids Zina did you not know that Muhammad does not allow you to have sexual intercourse with a woman before marriage did you not know that Al-A'asha said I am a very old man I am not sexually driven at this moment that isn't my problem I am more than happy but they said did you not also hear that he also forbids alcohol he forbids intoxication he doesn't allow it did you know that Al-A'asha said is that what he does he said yes Muhammad does not allow alcohol and alcohol is forbidden in his religion and then he said okay if that is the case I love alcohol this year I am going to drink alcohol and make sure that I reach my pinnacle and when I finish and I enjoyed it and I spent all my time with it I am going to stop and I am going to go to Muhammad and I am going to take Islam they said that same year in which he was drinking the alcohol he died and passed away so he delayed a righteous action he died in other than Islam the people who called him and made him not go to Muhammad he obeyed them he listened to them he also obeyed his nafs the poet he said فأنتك بالأمس اقترفت إساعة فثني بإحسان وانت حميد ولا ترجف فعل الخيرات إلى غدن the poet he said فأنتك بالأمس اقترفت إساعة if yesterday you did sin and you committed crimes then today is a second chance فثني بإحسان وانت حميد you have a second chance today you have a chance so what do you do? come with righteous action فثني بإحسان وانت حميد ولا ترجف فعل الخيرات إلى غدن do not delay good deeds for tomorrow لعل غدن يأتي وانت فغيد because tomorrow could come and you are dead then you have another chance today that was yesterday you did the sin you have a chance today to repent and ask Allah for forgiveness and also if there is any righteous action that you can do this moment do it do not push it to tomorrow because tomorrow could come but you are not there tomorrow might come and you are not alive so do not delay any righteous action because that is what he did this is the problem he delayed the righteous action for tomorrow he pushed it backwards but he didn't live for it وذلك our messenger instructed us the best action in Islam after the Shahadatain is what? the Salah and the messenger used to say to his companions إذا كمت في صلاةك if you stand up for your prayer فصلي صلاة مودعين pray the Salah of one who is not going to pray ever again pray this Salah as though it's going to be your last Salah I now ask your question how would you pray your last Salah isn't that another important question how do you pray your last Salah what are the things that you would do in your last prayer you would make sure that your prayer is long you would make sure that that Qiyam is long you would make sure that your eyes that you can make you and make it all in the Sujood you would make sure that the recitation of the Quran is red يعني بتجويد والإتقان you're going to do that you're going to beautify your voice you're going to make sure you stand properly when you pray you're going to make sure that your Salah has Khushu' all of that you will make sure because you know there's no prayer after this إذا كمت في صلاةك فصلي صلاة مودعين the prophet said that you're going to do the righteous action for tomorrow tomorrow might come and you're not alive ولذلك الله سبحانه وتعالى he says الله سبحانه وتعالى he says it is not your wishful thinking and it is also not the wishful thinking of the people of the scripture إذا عمل سوء and anyone who does any evil action يجزبه he will be punished in accordance to that وَلَا يَجِدْ and he will not find لَهُ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ besides Allah one that's going to give him victory and aid him in supporting he won't find it if you've committed crimes and you've done wrong no one is able to protect you from the punishment of Allah you won't have any allies you won't have anyone aiding or supporting you so what is it that you must do you must depend on الله سبحانه وتعالى alone I'm going to stop there anything which I've said that was wrong or incorrect is from me and Shaytan and Allah and his messenger are both free from it سبحانك الله وبحمده أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله أستغفرك وأتوب إلي السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته ورحمة الله وبركاته كيف can you do a two second action right now
