 إن الحمد لله نحمده ونستعينه ونستغفره ونتوب إليه ونعود بالله من شرور أنفسنا ومن سيئات عمالنا من يهته الله فلا موضل له ومن يضل له فلا هادي له وأشهر ولا إله إلا الله وحده لا شرك له وأشهر والناس يدنا ومنانا محمدا عبده المستفاة ونبيه المجتباء ورسوله المرتضة خاطم الأنبياء وإمام الأدقياء وسيد المرسلين وحبيب رب العالمين صلى الله عليه وآلى آله وصحبي جمعين اللهم صل وصلم على سيد محمد مفتاح باب رحمة الله وسير الأصلال نور الأنوار المجتباء والمختار وآلى آله وأسهابه الأخيار المهاجرين والانصار والسلم تسليما كثيرا أعود بالله من الشيطان الرجيم بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم يا أيها الذين آمنوا اتقوا الله حق تقاته ولا تموتن إلا وأنت مسلمون صلق الله صلق الله العلي العظيم وقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم إنما بعثت ليتمم مكارب الأخلاق أو كما قال عليه الصلاة والسلام أما بعد السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته هذا فقط صحيح جداً على هذا الوصول يوم عيداً ويصبحت جميعاً للسلم all around the world ويصبحت جميعاً لأيها الأساسي والمجتمع الله سبحانه وتعالى يقول في القرآن ومن يتوكّل على الله فهو حسبه أن أحد يدخل في الله سبحانه وتعالى الله يكفي enough for him أن كل ما نحتاجه هو الله الله يكفي حسبنا الله ونعمل وكيل الله يكفي ويكفي جميل ويكفي الله سبحانه وتعالى يقول هذا هو ما يكفي ما يكفي في مدينة عندما يكفي في مدينة يكفي في مدينة أن أجل أرمي يكفي معك إن الناس قد جمع لكم فخشوهم أن الناس يكفي معك لذا يخافونهم فزادوهم إيمانة الله سبحانه وتعالى يقول أن هذا يكفي في مدينة ما يكفي show them يكفي كثيرا وخالف وقالوا حسبنا الله وخففنا الله ونعمل وكيل كهر مفاعل الله يكفي الله يكفي إن ينسركم الله فلا غالب لكم وإذا you وإذا الله يكفي لا يمكنك أن تفقئ you وإن يخضلكم فمن ذا الذي ينصركم من بعده but if he forsakes you who can possibly give you victory after that وعلى الله فليتوكل المؤمنون and upon Allah سبحانه وتعالى let the believers place their trust Allah سبحانه وتعالى is our protector والله ولي المؤمنين Allah سبحانه وتعالى is our protector الله سبحانه وتعالى is the one who protects us and guards us and guides us and he is sufficient he is wholly sufficient unto us سبحانه وتعالى it is related that إمام عالي الرضا he came and he visited a major city and thousands of people came out to meet him and they asked him give us something give us some words of advice and he said that I heard from my father موسى القاذم who heard from his father جعفر صادق who heard from his father محمد الباقر who heard from his father حسين ابنو عالي زين العبيدين who heard from his father حسين ابنو عالي who heard from his father عالي ابنو أبي طالب who heard from his father who heard from his from his father in law the prophet محمد صلى الله عليه و سلم who heard from جبريل عليه السلام the angel Gabriel who heard from الله سبحانه وتعالى لا إله إلا الله حسني ومن قال لا إله إلا الله بصدق فدخل حسني ومن دخل حسني فقد أمنا من عذابي that لا إله إلا الله لا إله إلا الله سبحانه وتعالى هو my fortress فمن يقول لا إله إلا الله مع سنسرتي لقد دخلت my fortress ومن يدخلت my fortress is safe is secure from my punishment and the عذاب mentioned in this statement is the عذاب of the next life the عذاب of entering جهندم and abiding therein the أمة of the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم will achieve salvation قد أفلح المؤمنون this is the promise of الله سبحانه وتعالى وعض الله حق ومن أستقوم من الله قيلة the promise of الله سبحانه وتعالى is true الله never breaks a promise he never breaks a trust a trust who is more truthful in his speech than الله سبحانه وتعالى the أمة of the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم will achieve salvation in the form of paradise and spiritual proximity to their lord the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said this umma of mine is an umma that has been granted mercy and its punishment is in the dunya in the world and that is when you think about it in and of itself a form of mercy therefore being in Allah's fortress of لا إله إلا الله does not mean that we will not experience hardships الله سبحانه وتعالى says do you expect or do you reckon that you're going to enter paradise without experiencing you know struggle and showing patience the Sahaba came to the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and they asked him يا رسول الله أي الناس الشد بالاء this hadith is related by imam Ahmad and imam tilmidi or messenger of god who has the greatest of tribulations from from the people who experiences the the most severe of tribulations and the prophet said the prophets he said حديث related by imam ibn maja لقد أوضيت في الله وما يؤذ أحد I have been tortured for the sake of Allah as no one else has and I have suffered fear for the sake of Allah سبحانه وتعالى as no one has you have to understand now that the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم has the مقام محمود the praiseworthy station he is the حبيب of Allah سبحانه وتعالى this is not a form of punishment Allah is not punishing the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم الله is raising his degrees you see the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is the great teacher إنما بُعِثْتُ مُعَلِمَ I was only sent as a teacher so he's teaching us how to deal with adversity you see so the point here is to have hope in Allah سبحانه وتعالى this is very very important never lose hope no matter what happens in the dunya this is the testing ground we should never lose hope الله سبحانه وتعالى says لقد كان لكم في رسول الله أسوات الحسنة you have in the messenger of God a beautiful example remember I told you that he teaches us how to deal with adversity and Allah says in this ayah you have in the messenger of God a beautiful virtuous exemplar and then he says لمن كان يرجو الله for whoever has رجع hope in Allah ويوم الآخر وذكر الله كثيرا and who has hope in the day of judgment the final day and makes frequent rememberings of Allah سبحانه وتعالى so رجع you see is to have hope with action though it's not blind hope right is to have hope that's backed by action blind hope with no action is called تمنى right that's a bad type of hope that's more of a delusion the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said ألكي يسو من دانا نفسه وعمي لما بعد الموت the intelligent one is the one who subdues his nuffs his lower self right that that soul that mortal soul that pulls you down towards the earth that loves the world that that loves you know gluttony and lust and an avarice of these types of things the intelligent one is the one who who who who conquers the nuffs brings it down and works for that which comes after death والعاجز and the unintelligent one من أتبع نفسه هواه وتمنى على الله this hadith is intermedy amazing hadith and the unintelligent one is the one who puts his lower self in the pursuance of its desires of its هواه and then has hope in God I hope this happens I hope that happens I hope I go to jannah yet his food is haram his clothing is haram he looks at the haram he listens to the haram right ففعلو ما تؤمرون as موسى عليه السلام said to the bani israel do what you've been commanded islam works if we do it right if we do it according to our tradition if we do it according to the حكمة of the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم don't forget the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم according to the quran was given الكتاب and the حكمة right he's given the quran and also given the حكمة the wisdom the ulamas say this is the sunnah this is how he lived the quran the wisdom of the quran الله سبحانه وتعالى says يا أيها الذين آمنوا استعينوا بالصبر والصلاة he says that oh you who believe seek help seek Allah's help with patience in prayer right this is البقرة 153 read those sequence of ayat in البقرة it's an amazing sequence right there in the middle of البقرة right seek Allah's help with patience in prayer many of our مفصلين including امام الرازي ابن كثير امامة تبري they say there's three kinds of patience right three kinds of patience we're three aspects to صبر to patience number one being resolute in avoiding sins right being resolute in avoiding sins in other words having self discipline Dr. Leonard sacks he said that the greatest indicator of later life success in children is self control being able to control yourself that's an aspect of صبر being resolute in avoiding sins the second aspect of صبر constancy in virtuous actions right being devoutly consistent even if it's small the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said احبوا العمالي إلى الله ادومها وانقل there was beloved actions to Allah سبحانه و تعالى are those that are consistently done even if they're small right and then the third aspect contentment in the face of affliction contentment in the face of affliction that you have the spiritual maturity to know that the affair of the believer is always good the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said indeed the affair of the believer is خير it's always good all of it is good and that we accept the قدر of الله سبحانه و تعالى and if Allah سبحانه و تعالى is punishing us then we make توبة and we rectify our behavior right and we thank Allah that the punishment was in this world and if Allah سبحانه و تعالى is raising our degrees you see it's a win-win situation the affair of the believer is always good and Allah سبحانه و تعالى says don't say about those who are killed in Allah's path that they are dead بل أحيا they're alive ولا كي لا تشعرون but you don't perceive ولا نبلو ونكم and indeed indeed we will test you be shaitan with something من الخوف والجوع والنقص من الأموال والأنفس والطمرات we will test you with something from fear and hunger and loss of wealth and loss of lives or selves and loss of fruits وَبَشْرِ الصَّابِرِينَ but give glad tidings to those who are patient إبن كثير suggests that خوف here when Allah says خوف that relates to the fear of Allah سبحانه و تعالى right and the أرلمة however they transcend خوف because there are two ways of saying fear and of course fear خوف is the beginning of wisdom as it is said in the biblical tradition even in our tradition but خشية is to have fear of Allah with knowledge of Allah سبحانه و تعالى خشية a fear that is that is grounded in substantive knowledge to be in awe of Allah سبحانه و تعالى but خوف is still there right and that's something that the Qur'an talks about and then he says that that hunger so we're going to test you من الخوف والجوع that hunger refers to the fast of Ramadan right we fasted 30 days during the month and it's for in for some people it's more difficult than others but that's something it's only 30 days right and it's only from from from dawn until dusk so that's something of hunger that we're going to experience and then loss of wealth و نقص من الأموال where it refers according to even kathir to zakat right and then loss of selves أنفوس refers to death due to sickness and loss of fruits ثمارات refers to the death of children and the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he can he experienced all of these consistently he experienced all of these consistently all of these tests all of these types of adversities yet he taught us to say الحمد لله على كل حال praise be to Allah سبحانه وتعالى praise be to Allah سبحانه وتعالى in every state you see so know the nature of life in this world be patient settle yourself settle yourself firmly in the fortress of Allah سبحانه وتعالى which is لا إله إلا الله then place your hope and trust in Allah سبحانه وتعالى and Allah سبحانه وتعالى is the best of protectors okay now as far as ايد prayers go i was asked to give a short sort of note on what to do about ايد prayers according to the dominant opinion of the حنفي school the ايد prayer is not performed at home by individuals because it has the same conditions as the جمار prayer that's under normal conditions however however it is permissible and recommended to pray two units of super arbitrary prayer in lieu of the ايد prayer so that would be your intention would be for صلاة الدوحة and usually this prayer would not be done in congregation but there's a difference of opinion some of the ألمة say that a small household a small family may may perform this prayer in congregation but they will not add any of the extra تقبيرات right so it's performed like ناثيلة however there is a minority opinion in the حنفي school of scholars who permit the performance of ايد prayer at home with your family stipulating that there must be a minimum of four people in a congregation this is not the preferred opinion of the school however given our unprecedented situation with COVID-19 the ألمة are now encouraging people to actually pray صلاة العيد at home whether individually or in congregation so go ahead and إن شاء الله تعالى pray at home pray صلاة العيد with your family with your families and rejoice together with your families spend that time with your families so basically then in the first رقعة you'll give three additional تقبير before الفاتحة and the سورة in the second رقعة you'll give the three additional تقبير after reciting الفاتحة and the سورة although there's different ways of doing it so may Allah سبحانه وتعالى bless all of you and accept all of your prayers and supplication and fasting ربنا تقبل مننا إنك أنت السمي والعليم وتبع علينا إنك أنت التواب الرحيم والصلاة الله على سيد محمد ولا أله والسحبي جمعين برحمتك يا أرحم الراحمين آمين آمين عيدكم مبارك والسلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
