 الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والسناء الجميل وشدوى الله إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهدي السبيل وشدوى نسيدنا ونبينا محمد صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدينة مع بعض اليوم شاء الله تعالى المعرفة التي سنجد سنكون على أسباب زيادة الإيمان أسباب أسباب زيادة الإيمان الأشياء التي يساعد الإيمان أن تنظر الأشياء التي ينظر الإيمان وكذلك أن تنظر الإيمان سنتحدث عنها أيضا شاء الله تعالى أولا قبل أن نذهب إلى الأشياء التي يجعل الإيمان تنظر وأشياء التي يجعل الإيمان تنظر سنتحدث عن أهمية الإيمان الأهمية الإيمان وعضم الشأنه وكيف أكثر ومفتاح بذرائي الإيمان أخواني وخواتي أخي وخواتي أخي سنجد سنجد أخواني ليس في هذا العالم وليس في الهرافة إلا أنه يأتي بإيمان الله سبحانه وتعالى يقول في القرآن بل أفلح المؤمنون حقا أخواني is for the believers أخواني is for the believers so the person of success is connected to the person's e-man and the success we are talking about is in this world the true the true success to a person who is truly successful is the person who has come with e-man it's not the person who has so much money in his account it's not the one who has so many children but it's the person who has come with e-man and every time your e-man increases the more your success increases it is true e-man that a person will be allowed to see Allah the day of judgment and what is the greater success than that the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said in a hadith that reached this hadith reached multi generation more than 30 companies narrated this from the prophet which is إنكم سترون ربكم that you will also see Allah the day of judgment كما ترون القمر the way that you see the moon when it's full the full moon when it's on the 13th how it's full لا تضامون في رؤية there's nothing in between you and seeing it you will see Allah تبارك وتعالى and this is تشبيه الرؤية بالرؤية لا تشبيه المرئيه بالمرئي it's comparing the looking to the look it's not comparing what is being looked at to what is being looked at it's not comparing Allah to the moon but it's comparing the look to the look it's the same way that you will see the moon nothing between you and the moon when the moon is full it's the same way that the person they say if the person will see Allah the day of judgment but this is as Ibn Taymiah mentions in Islamia he says والمؤمنون يرون والمؤمنون يرون حق ربهم وإلى السماء بغير كيف ينزلوا والمؤمنون the believers are the ones يرون ربهم it's the believers who will see Allah and this characteristic of Iman is what allows you to see Allah the day of judgment and there's nothing greater than seeing Allah the Creator the sustainer, the provider the one you've been worshipping all your life it's even greater than Jannah Allah says in the Quran للذين أحسنوا الحسنة وزيادة those who have come with excellence they were righteous they were noble الله تبارك وتعالى he says for them is what حسنة for them is حسنة حسنة here means good and حسنة here means Jannah for them is what Jannah the people who come with excellence for them is Jannah then Allah says وزيادة وزيادة here is what it's more than Jannah now it's an additional thing what is it رؤية الله seeing Allah تبارك وتعالى seeing Allah تبارك وتعالى is what the believers are given and it's something Allah doesn't allow the disbelievers to attain كلا إنهم عربهم يومئني لما حجوبون then the disbelievers between them and Allah is available they won't be seen alone الله تبارك وتعالى and this is the fawai the benefit of Iman believing in Allah تبارك وتعالى also the benefits that Iman has is that it protects the person from the Hellfire and it allows the person to enter جنة if you look at the Hellfire when Allah talks about it he says اُعِدَّتْ لِلْكَافِيرِينَ that the Hellfire was prepared for who it's prepared for the disbelievers is where the disbelievers will finally enter whereas جنة the believers are going to enter جنة even the believer who goes to the Hellfire will finally come out of it and he will enter جنة because that's where Allah made for him the Prophet ﷺ he said إن حليث القدسي that Allah تبارك وتعالى will say اخرج من الناري take out of the Hellfire من قال لا إله إلا الله the one that there is the one that says that there is not worthy of worship except Allah وكان في قلبه من الخير ما يزر دره and in his heart is the busted seed of belief he's going to stay in the Hellfire he's going to burn in the Hellfire for a period of time but what is it that will take him out of the Hellfire الإيمان even though it's small it will still take him out of it will still take him out of the Hellfire the benefits that إيمان has my beloved brothers and sisters is also if you're looking for tranquility if you want to be a person who doesn't have depression anxieties إيمان is what gives a person طمع نينة سكينة tranquility الله says in the Qur'an اللين آمنوا وتطمئنوا قلوبهم بذكر الله ألا بذكر الله تطمئنوا القلوب الله says in this ayah اللين آمنوا those who believe in Allah تبارك وتعالى وتطمئنوا قلوبهم بذكر الله and in the remembrance of Allah does their hearts find tranquility ألا بذكر الله تطمئنوا القلوب because it's through the remembrance of Allah does the heart find tranquility in the beginning of the ayah what did he say اللين آمنوا those who who believe in Allah سبحانه وتعالى so it's the believers who are going to find tranquility in their heart يا إخوة إيمان is the greatest blessing الله has bestowed upon us you have to ponder here أمو طالب the prophet's uncle who is protected Islam defended this religion الله has bestowed upon them with faith الله has bestowed upon them with faith الله has bestowed upon them with faith وزالله سنة قرآن ولكن قرها إليكم الكفر والفصوق والعسيان أولائكم والراشدون أولئكم سبحانه وتعالى سبحانه وتعالى سبحانه وتعالى يا إلهي أعمل أنجاكم فأسكم بالبئ فتبينوا أن تصيب قوم من جهالة فتصبح على ما فعلتم نادمين وعلموا أن فيكم رسول الله إليكم الإيمان ولكن الله حبب إليكم الإيمان وزينه في قلوبكم وقرها إليكم الكفر والفصوق والعسيان أولائكم والراشدون فضل من الله ونعمة فضل ماذا إذا أنت إذا أفتح وإذا أنت أنت أنت الله سبحانه وتعالى أفتح معكم إيمان وأعطاكم إيمان وهذا تفضل في صورة الحجرات وقصد كاملا أن أخبروا أن يمنون عليك أن أسلموا فالتمنون علي엔 إسلامكم بل الله يمنون عليكم أن هداكم للإيمان إذا وصادقين إذا يمنون عليك أن أسلمكم بل الله يمنون عليكم أن هداكم للإيمان إذا ليسمِّنها إنه مرحبا أن الله أعطيك إيمان أبو طالب كان مرحبا أن يساعد المرحب مع ذلك إسلام كان يساعده إِسَلَّ قَدْ عَلِيْتُ بِأَنَّ دِيْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ خَيْلُ الْبَرِيَّةِ دِيْنَنْ لَولَا مَلَامَ تُأُرْحِدَارَ مُصَبَّتِ لَوَجَاتَ ليِ بِدَاكَ سَبْحَمُ مُبِيْنَا أنه أعلم أن مرحبا أنه كان مرحبا He also used to say يَا مُقَلِّبَ القُلُوبِ او دِوَ اَوْ أَوْ هُعُتُسِزْ إِالَمُهَا مُقَلْبِ عَلَا دِيْنِ you can make my heart firm upon your religion تَبْبِتْ قَلْبِ عَلَا دِينِ يِتَّبْ تَبْبِتْ قَلْبِ عَلَا دِينِ They were some of the benefits that are in Eman Before I came, I mentioned some of the things that we need to come with in order for our Eman to increase Anybody who wants success, brothers يجب أن يكمل إيمانك ، الأشياء التي يجب أن يكمل إيمانك لإنقاذ ، ويجب أن تنظر على الأشياء التي ستجد إيمانك ، هذا one form of observation. You look at the positivity. You learn about it. And the second observation is that you look at the things that will damage your إيمان and that will harm your إيمان. And that can bring it corruption. It can reduce your إيمان. It can even fully get rid of your إيمان. Because if you don't know evil, will you be able to stay away from it? The poet, he said, He said, I came to know about the evil, not because it's evil in and within itself, not because I want it. But I came to know about the evil so I can stay away from it. Because the one who doesn't know evil he will fall into it. And he got this from the statement of حذيفة بن اليمن, the hadith which is in بخاري المصرم. The حذيفة said He said that the people used to ask the prophet about the good. They would come to him and they would ask him good. I, on the other hand, حذيفة, I would ask about the evil مخافة تفير that I might fall into it. So I'm scared of it. So the poet, he took it from that. So everybody who wants to attain what they want they need to know the good and they need to know the evil in order to stay away from it. So when it comes to إيمان you need to know the مقاومات أسبب وزيادة الإيمان. The things that will cause the إيمان to increase. The things that will nurture your إيمان. You need to study that. And you also need to study the opposite of that which is the evil that can harm your إيمان that can damage your إيمان. And once you do that you truly will be able to strengthen your إيمان. إن شاء الله وتعالى This sit and another sit إن شاء الله وتعالى we will discuss these أسبب وزيادة الإيمان ونقصاني. The first one and I believe it's the أهم and the greatest the most important cause that will allow a person's إيمان to increase ويقويه and it strengthens it. ويُنميه and it also nurtures your إيمان. It is an عِل مُنَّافِع beneficial knowledge. The first thing is if you want your إيمان to increase is to come with beneficial knowledge. الله سبحانه وتعالى He tells us that the Prophet was sent. اللي بيلاه محمد was what? He was sent. اللي بيلاه محمد was sent with two things. هو الذي أرسل رسوله بالهدى ودين الحق ليوذهراه على الدين كله. ابن جليل الطابري أرطبي الإيمان محمد شكري الألوسي and others they mentioned that what is meant by هو الذي أرسل رسوله بالهدى. هدى هي مين العِل مُنَّافِع beneficial knowledge. ودين الحق مين العمل الصالح these are the two things الله سبحانه وتعالى the first is what? beneficial knowledge He came to bring about beneficial knowledge because brothers and sisters we as human beings the two default characteristics that are in us is a ذُلْمُ والجهل ignorance and oppression الله سبحانه وتعالى إِنَّ عَرَضْنَ الْأَمَانَةَ عَلَسَّ مَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَالْجِبَالِ فأبين أن يحملناها وأشفقنا منها وحملها الإنسان إنه إنه كان ظلوما جهولا then the human is what ظلوم and he's what جهول these are the two characteristics that every one of us have we are born in us and we have jihad this is the creation how Allah created us شيخ رسالم تايمين says أصل الإنسان is a ظل والجهل that's the awesome the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم when he came what was his aim and objective it's to remove those two from you that's the two he came to get rid of he came to get rid of the ignorance that is in you and the oppression that is in you الله says in the Quran يُسَبِّحُ لله ما في السموات وما في الأرض الملك القدوس العزيز الحكيم هو الذي بعتها في الأميين رسولا منهم يتلو عليهم آياته ويزكيه ويعلّمهم الكتاب والحكمة وإن كانوه من قبله لفي الظلال المبين the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم when he came ورزد عليكم when he came هو الذي بعت في الأميين رسولا منهم يتلو عليهم آياته يتلو عليهم آياته ويزكيه ويعلّم ويعلّمهم الكتاب ويعلّم ويزكيه ويعلّم الكتاب ويعلّم ويعلّم عِلْف تَزْكِه is what gets rid of the جهل sorry the wrong in you and the wrong is what gets rid of the the جهل that is in you وإن كانوه من قبله لفي الظلال المبين when wrong and جهل both are in you that is that is ضلال المبين claim misguided and we all together ولي ذلك what did the prophet say he said أنا أحدث ما محمد ريث is in Islam that the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم أنا دعوة أخي إبراهيم أنا دعوة أبي إبراهيم أنا دعوة أبي إبراهيم I am the الدعاء of إبراهيم هو الدعاء of إبراهيم ربنا وابعى فيه رسولا منه يتلو عليهم آياتك ويزكيه ويعلّم الكتابة ويزكيه إنك أنت العزيز الحكيم صح حفاظ did I get alright صبوا صدي أياتك شابه بالشابه هات صح هذا أيات إبراهيم is making الدعاء هو الدعاء that you made he said oh Allah send a prophet that will come with two things and will it in brothers one of the first things that increases knowledge is what increases what what is that brothers العلم is beneficial knowledge and the poet he said أطلوب وليتدجر من مطلب فأعفى تبطالب أي الطرع العثار الماء بتكراره في الصخرة الصمائقة الثرى تجد معا و لا تنفق تحاولوا أفضل و يجب عليك أن تنفق و تحاولوا أن تدعوك و لا تنفق لا تنفق فأعفى تبطالب أي الطرع المكتب الآخر من الطرق يجب على أن يطلق ألا ترى و الماء و الماء و كم تتتعب الصخرة الصمائقة و الماء فأعفى تبطالب أي الطرع و يتدعوك و يتحاولوا و يتدعوك و يتدعوك هل ليس الماء يتدعوك و يتدعوك و يتدعوك و يتدعوك بعد بعد أن يكون و أن الناس يجب عليك أعرف المال و يتدعوك الله يقول يرفع و المال و أنه لدى الله يضع أفضل the disbelievers هل يقلون؟ لا they are not. The believers are greater than these believers. The lowest of the Muslims is better than the greatest of the disbelievers. But within the believers are they all the same? Allah within them, who did He raise great? Who did He put higher? Allah put those of knowledge the greatest. The prophets have the most knowledge. But within the people, the greatest of them are those who are the most knowledgeable one. وَلِذَا الشَّيْخُ الْإِسْتَعْمِ الْبْرُوْتَيْنَهِ يَسَزْ نِيْأَيَا أَلَّهُ أَعْلَهُ أَعْلَهُ وَحِيْتُ رِيَجَ عَلُوا رِيْسَالَتَا الله knows where He is going to place His message. Didn't Allah choose who He was going to make a prophet? Were the prophets not chosen by Allah? The same way Allah chooses the prophets, He chooses the people of knowledge. He what? He chooses the person who is going to gift Him with this knowledge. الله is in the Quran Are they equal? The one who knows and the one who doesn't know. Are they equal? The answer is no, they are not equal. Which one is better? The one who has knowledge. So knowledge is the first thing that increases a person's e-man. If you want to attain knowledge brothers, you need three characteristics. Three things if you come with you will attain knowledge. The first one is You're doing this for Allah سبحانه وتعالى. And we already mentioned sincerity is what That your heart is not connected to anybody. You're not doing this for anybody, only for Allah سبحانه وتعالى. That's the only objective and aim that you have in this issue. The second thing that allows a person to attain knowledge is The person has high aspirations. The person has high aspirations. The person has high aspirations. They will attain great portion. Who is the king of the jungle? Who do they say is the king of the jungle? A lion doesn't eat dead corpse. A lion doesn't eat what's been killed by some other animal. A lion kills for himself. He's got his own aspiration. He does his own killing. He puts his own effort in. He exerts his own effort. So the person has to have high aspiration. و لذلك ابن الجوزي says in this كتاب سيد الخاطر He says He says The person has a complete mind. If you want a person smart, he's a smart individual. This person is clever. Is that he has high aspirations. If you want to know if a person is dim with him. He's mentally deficient. He has low aspirations. He's pleased with the bare minimal. Whereas a person whose heart is complete He's always gone for the highest things. So you have high aspirations. You set yourself a goal that's high and you work towards that. That's how you live your life. The third one is To attain knowledge You have to know the third The third thing that you need as a person is what? You need to know the path to seek knowledge. What book do I start with? You're going to die and you're still going to feel like you haven't studied this. You haven't studied this. You haven't done this. You haven't done that. If Allah gives you a thousand years A million years to live, you'll still die wanting to study more. Because knowledge will just never finish. So what do you do? If that's the case This is what you do. If that's the case This is what you do. If that's the case This is what you do. شخصور فخذ بكل فن احسن A particular person Take from them all sciences A good portion of it. Some good amount. How do you do that? Try to memorize a comprehensive text And take it to somebody who's knowledgeable Who can teach you it. You might get somewhere. And it's always important to look at these three things. A lot of the people they go to Egypt They go to this country, they go to that country They study, they come back But they suffer because they don't have a methodology They don't have a methodology to seek knowledge They don't know what book to start with And what book to finish. So he's memorizing بلو المرام A person comes up to you and says to you Oh by the way, I don't think you should memorize بلو المرام And what should I memorize? Memorize كتاب المحر المرام عبد الهدي Okay, you put بلو المرام inside Then you go to محر المرام عبد الهدي Another one comes up to you and says محر المرام عبد الهدي Memorize المرام عبد الهدي So the person, 3-4 years He might be struggling from one book to another Because every time somebody's coming to him And advising him what to study What not to study And he's destroying his methodology of what to seek So these three If a person gets A new intention And then the second one is That the person has high aspiration And then the third thing is If you have a methodology to seek knowledge Then the person will attain some knowledge And I can never promise you That you will attain all of knowledge Because knowledge cannot all be attained But إن شاء الله تعالى Knowledge will feel sorry for you and give you something After a period of time When you've come with all of this And you've exerted everything you had Knowledge might feel sorry for you And give you something in return And that's the reality So the first thing brothers Is to educate yourself And we're all together And that's why you know the famous حليت أحمد ناريطن And صحابه الصناق And حليت أبي دبدأ And when he turns on his path And when he turns on his path He does it because he wants to attain knowledge That's his objective That's his aim He wants to gain knowledge Allah will As he has taken knowledge Allah is going to give him a path في جنة الجزائل من جيس العمل But here I'm going to mention Two points and I'm going to conclude With that إن شاء الله تعالى Which is What knowledge should a passer do In order for the amount to increase I'm going to only mention two The first one is العلم بالله Knowledge of Allah Learning Allah's names Learning Allah is what? Characteristics And attributes Anybody who studies Allah is Even increases The more you learn Allah, the more you increase Look what Allah said in the Quran إنما يخش الله من عباده العلم The reason why I really like that Is because In the Arabic language There is the Qa'id Which is that the Masrool is always after Ha It's before the The Masrool which one is first Is the Fa'il first or the Masrool first Or the Fi'il first The Fi'il comes first And then after that The English is an S-V-S-V-O language Fi'il Fa'il Ali In this ayah what happened Which one came first The Masrool or the Fa'il Did the object come first Or did the subject come first Ha Which one came first The object came first The Masrool came first That's why we say إنما يخش الله Ha This shows something very powerful in the language Which is the Qa'id Which is تأخير ما حقه التقديم اما تقديم ما حقه التأخير و فيه الحص If you put something forward that deserves to be put after If you put it bring it forward In the Arabic language there is something called exclusivity What does حص means It means إثبات الحكم للمدكور و لفل عم عده Is that you are affirming the ruling for this particular issue And you are negating it from everything else So in other words No one fears Allah the Almighty That's the meaning that comes out of the verse That the only ones we fear are Allah the way He deserves to be feared Why have they attained that And how did they attain the people of knowledge To be the ones that fear Allah the Almighty To be the ones that fear Allah the Almighty As the people of knowledge say من كان بالله أعرف Anyone who knows Allah the most كان بالله أخشاء و من كان منه أخوف Or that person Is more fear of Allah the Almighty The more you know him the more you fear صحيح If somebody just came from Somalia today He landed first day in London Never been here before And he lands In London And somebody gives him a car Okay I'm not Insuating that a person gives a car To a Somali who just landed from Somalia But you give him a car And you say to him drive When you see that yellow box On the A46 Or the dual carriage way What do you know that means That yellow box It's a camera you know this is a camera You know when you get to that camera What do you do You slow down Does he know what that means What is he going to do He's just going to carry on the speed That he's driving at But you know Points The letter that's going to come through the post And the consequence they have to bear True or false So then your knowledge is more So your fear in this situation is more صح The one who knows Allah is like that The more a person knows Allah And the more he has knowledge of Him The more that person is conscious of Him And the more he is aware of Him The Prophet said in the Harith إن لله الله Has Allah has how many names That we know of They move on that 99 names مئة إلا واحدة من أحصاها دخل الجنة What does it mean When I came down أحصاها دخل الجنة أحصاها دخل الجنة وكما لاحفظها Anyone who memorize it So what else They live their life in a course That's it It means to know it Memorize it and live by it So you know Allah تبارك تعالى You study each name You stand over each name لك في زوجها وتشتكي إلى الله و الله يصبع وتحوركما إن الله سميع بصير عند هذا الآياء يأتي عائش ربي الله تعالى عنها تقول هذا المباشر تقول الحمد لله الذي يصبعه أين؟ واسع سرعه يصبعه كبير لقد جاءت المجادلة المجادة التي كانت تكلمة كانت تأتي إلى النبي she came to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم و أنا في ناحية البيت I was in the corner of the house I was in the house at that particular time when the woman came to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم she came to the Prophet and she was complaining about her husband I was there تشكوا زوجها وما أسمعوا ما تقول I, Aisha could not hear what she was saying I was in the room of the corner you have to remember those houses were not like these walls can hear everything I could not hear it الله سبحانه وتعالى from high above what did he say قد سمع الله الله had that complain of that woman to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم it increases your knowledge of how Allah can hear everything that you are saying you are doing and it makes you become very vigilant in what you are doing you ponder on the word الله can hear everything I am doing بصيب he sees it it makes you vigilant the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said to the companions أربعوا على أنفسكم be kind and tenderness towards yourselves فإنكم لا تدعون أصمن ولا غائبا you are not calling on to one that is absent or one that is death who can't hear إنما تدعونا سميعا بصيرا you are calling on to one that can hear and one that can see Allah سبحانه وتعالى today if somebody sat down and just pondered over this characteristic of Allah سميعا بصير and they implemented it would they do the things that some people do in private would you speak the way that you spoke if you pondered over how Allah can hear everything that you are doing and is aware of it they wouldn't the person would be very scared and would be very vigilant if two people speak to you today you can't hear both of them two people speak at the same time you are not able to hear both of them at the same time الله سبحانه وتعالى ما جعل الله للرجل من قلبين if you don't feel Allah did not place in your heart two you can only ponder on one over the other الله تبارك وتعالى all of the people were speaking and one time you can hear every one of them in all different languages one time he gives each and every one of them what they ask for it doesn't reduce his what it doesn't reduce his treasures and what he has سبحانه وتعالى he can hear all of that no voice mixes up with another if you really ponder over that then it really what it really makes you concerned what is the greatest أعضم the greatest in the Quran is it the longest what's the longest on the contrary what has more more letters are you Letters لأنه يتحدث عن الله's name in attributes. الله's name in ayatul kursi and Allah's Subhanahu wa Ta'ala's name in ayatul kursi has been mentioned 21 times. 21 times. الله's name or a pronoun that goes back to him has been mentioned 21 times. There is no ayah in the Quran like that. ويقاعدة أهل السنة والجماع is الله's name is Awad. أعلام باعتبار دلالته على الداد وأوصاف باعتبار دلالتها على المعادي every name of Allah has a characteristic that is in it. I don't want to insha'Allah lengthen the reflection today. Anything which I have said that was wrong or incorrect is from me and Shaytan and Allah's message is free from it. سبحانك اللهم ورحمدك أشهد والله إله إلا الله استغفروا وكوره.
