 Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem We say Allah bismillah during these days as Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala as well as the mu'min that during these few days of Eid the people names are being on Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala and so you hear in the salawats in the prayer of Eid we do extra ten bids saying God is greater extra ten bids extra ten bids saying Allah would put times in the prayer to glorify Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala and in the hukba the prophets of Allah would say Allah would put and during these days we remember something we remember our connection to the messenger of Allah by following his sunnah by following his sunnah by wearing new clothes and by coming to the Eid prayer and by for those of us who were able to do the adhan of al-Bani and in following the sunnah of the messenger of Allah Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala means reminding us of the sunnah of our father Ibrahim al-Israa our brothers and sisters who were fortunate enough to be invited by Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala to the hajj this year are commemorating and remembering the sunnah of Ibrahim al-Israa and so over there in the hajj in the season of hajj in the muwasin they are remembering the sunnah of Ibrahim al-Israa they are remembering Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala al-Israa they are remembering Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala and we in our jah, in our Eid khuba and in our prayer and in our takdiqahs and in our hajj of the sunnah of Allah we are remembering the sunnah of Ibrahim al-Israa and our brother Ibrahim al-Israa what are the things that we are commemorating what are the things that we are commemorating bringing to life so that people don't forget them what are those things Ibrahim al-Israa reached almost 19 years old and he did not have a child he did not have a son and he asked Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala he pleaded to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala to give him a child and Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala gave him a child and Allah heard his tuha and he gave him a son because Allah heard his son his pride, his tuha for his son Ibrahim al-Israa named him Issa' i'id i'id in the Syriza Syriza Ibrahim al-Israa which means Allah Issa' i'id he heard Issa' i'id Allah heard the call of Issa Allah Ibrahim al-Israa very soon after Ibrahim al-Israa to take his newborn son and opened his mind and his mother led him to the valley and in that valley was nothing there was no Zamzam there were no people there were no Ibrahim al-Israa made that call going out there lands on Jordan etc son with his wife and newborn infant child in that valley and he turned to walk away now think about this especially for those of us who are fathers think about this and here is Issa' i'id Ibrahim al-Israa after so many things finally he gave him a son and Allah commanded him to place him in a barren and desolate valley and he did what he was born and this is the trust that existed in that person and lived in that situation because he knows that Allah ordered him this is a command he must follow for the rest of us those of us who come after revelation our depending on Allah swt to look at the outward deeds the messenger of Allah swt told the man tie the camel and depend on Allah swt we can't do what Ibrahim al-Israa did and say that we are depending on Allah that was something for the wrongs but let's look at his submission to Allah swt in doing that he was able to look at them because he was so overcome with compassion for them he is a person of father Ibrahim Ibrahim a person of father one of the meanings of his name is a person of father he turned to Allah swt and said she called him back he didn't respond she called him back again he didn't respond finally she said he said listen to her response listen to her response when they knew he said yes she said Ibrahim al-Israa believe the greatest messenger of Allah Ibrahim al-Israa she stayed there in the valley until the water ran out and until the days ran out and then she started running to the hills of Saba standing on the hills of Saba she didn't see anybody running to the next hill of Marwan and going back and forth this is what our brothers and sisters are doing in this season between Saba and Marwan commemorating what she did in her submission to Allah swt and commemorating what she did brothers and sisters, they see them and do they're not just ritual in the sense that they have them being that they don't have any meaning to us they have meaning from where they originally got them from and they have meaning to our individual lives when she came back after looking for them his people with his foot covered the well of sense and gave them water that's where the well of sense began and she looked to her side hear the well of sense and she could see appraised air started coming through the birds in the desert and she was passing by the tribal tomb and they saw those birds and they said there wasn't any water in that well and they came to the valley they asked her permission can we settle in this valley and drink from this spring as well and pretty soon there were many many tents and houses from the tribe of Turku Ismail grew up in that until this day brothers and sisters it has not gotten uninhabited it was the sacrifice and the sacrifice and the sacrifice of Ismail and the sacrifice of Ismail that we have these things that we are going to have and visit he asked Allah SWT they all went to this valley asking brothers and sisters even though on this joy is they agree not to be that valid we are happy for our brothers and sisters that made the Hajj but we would love to be there our hearts are wanting to be there that is the duaab of Allah SWT if you have love for that valley and love for that islam our father Allah SWT has honored you by giving that duaab to your heart and you have that love for that islam he came back and he built the Ka'bah with Ismail and as they were building it to be delivered to Allah SWT they built it on that great platform of dirt that we had just saw because Allah SWT had built the house before them and they got into this repair and before them the angel had built that house and it was in this repair but since the time that they built it that house has been built until this day when Ismail was able to travel with his father when he was able to travel with his father and the angel how proud of how he would be for those of you who have children now Ismail can actually travel with you he doesn't need to be in the home by himself at that point Allah SWT gave Allah SWT the dream and in the dream he saw himself islam Ismail now take note in the dream he did not see his son was slaughtered he saw him in the Al-Baqqa that Ma'iyah is following you for the prophets dreams are a form of revelation if they did an order or a vision in the dream they could not leave from the shaytan from the devil they could not leave from their own self and he is from Allah SWT and so he went to his son knowing that he has to fulfill this command of Allah and look in the sacrifice and submission when he took in the dream he found out that his father is a messenger and he knows that the messenger seeing the dreams of the revelation they have to follow it and he told his son I see that I am slaughtered in the dream look at his response just like his mother said if this is an order from Allah Allah will not allow us to waste away Ismail said do what has been commanded and he will find me in the song how many of us brothers and sisters when we go to someone our wife for the witness their husband the parents are their children children to their parents in order to employ brothers in the month of the self siblings, friends when we go because Allah will not need to do this whatever it is in acceptance from the other person like Ibrahim found from Hado do we find the same acceptance like Ibrahim found from Ismail that sacrifice that willingness to sacrifice for the submission to Allah it's time to pray and Allah will not let us waste away it's time to leave this job because it's compromising my need Allah will not let us waste away it's time to travel because we have something better for our need and try to change our situation because it's better for our need when we have the change or when we have to sacrifice for the submission that Ismail had and the Khadr had Allah will not let us waste away we came to this prayer and we had a lecture house and I was saying the technique Allah will not let us waste away Allah will not let us waste away where did we get that according to what variation when Ibrahim took his son Ismail and let him down to begin this part of the process to be to be to be around to be smaller in the place of Ismail and he giving body to Ismail he brought him to smaller to win so before he reached there he said, Allah will not let us waste away he brought he seeing to be aliyasala and hearing the voice and knowing, to be brings revelation from Allah and he keep the making now that he would be in revelation through jubilee, he prepared, by saying, Allah Akbar, I mean, hurt them. Ismari, alaihi salam, hurt the dhikr of jubilee and hurt the dhikr of his father, and he knew that Allah had sent something to his father in his place, and so then he said, Allah Akbar, I mean, the time he did not want to insist. From that sacrifice and that submission of the Prophet Muhammad and his son, Ismari, so when he said, don't take me out to these next two days, I'm warning you all many times, till the Asa of this Thursday, and I'm warning you in the name of Allah, from this morning until the Kajar of Wednesday, we're saying, take me out after every single prayer, every Muslim should be doing the same, take me out either three times, or in that form of Allah Akbar, Allah Akbar, that is Allah Akbar, Allah Akbar, Allah Akbar, Allah Akbar, what they are doing after every five Salaf, but let's not just go to the Moshe of the brothers and sisters. Let's remember what Allah has reminded us and he's reminded us of the story and the submission and the sacrifice of Ismari and of His Bani, and of His Bani, and of His Bani Ismari and of His Salaam. Allah will be put in the al-Salaam al-Salaam, and I will be stood up. He is still the Technique of Allah, the Almighty. He is glorifying Him and praising Him and praising Him. Allah, the Almighty, is in peace. Allah says, Allah says, Allah will be the most merciful messenger in the world. So Allah will be the most merciful messenger in the world. Another thing of this day, of these days, is to have the Adam and the Slaam. And again, it's not a ritual just to go through the process of going through the ritual, but it's to remind us of that sacrifice and that submission of Ibrahim and of his son, Ismail. But not just to stand and talk there. Even in that, it's great. And there are more than remembering the stories of the prophets. But we also have to remember and think about how we can bring this into our life. And how can we bring this statement of what Ismail had in our lives? And if Allah ordered you to do this, then Allah will not let us waste away. If Allah told us that something is ka'ab, then we don't make excuses for ourselves and say, oh, if I don't do this ka'ab, then we're wasting time. We're wasting my health. No, we have the submission of Ismail's mother. We're saying, either we can bring Allah or Allah will not let us waste away. If this is an order from Allah, then we're done. And it's not right to have that cheat or whatever an apple might be. We remember that Ibrahim and Ismail, he's willing to sacrifice his son into fulfill the dream. And according to the parama, will marry him and destroy him. And they said, but they didn't believe him. Ibrahim placed the knife onto the neck of his son. He actually moved. He didn't stop us. But you believe did not stop us before the knife moved. Ibrahim placed the knife on his neck and moved it back and forth. But Allah has removed the ability of that knife to cut because Allah is in control of everything. If he wants to remove heat and the ability to burn from fire, he can do that as he did with Ibrahim when he was grown into the fire. Ibrahim, I expect it not to be burned by the fire. If he wants to remove the ability for people to see, he will remove that ability, like what happened with the Qur'an, so Allah himself will be left during the night on his hip to run and place the liable from him. If he wants to remove the ability of this knife to cut, he can remove it. Allah is in control of everything. But he is capable of all things. And in placing that knife on his son's throat and then moving it back and forth, that is what he saw in the dream, and he fulfilled the dream. If he had to have the son slaughtered, he just had to go through the process. That's Allah's will. That's Allah's will. Allah's will is going to have wanted from him. That was the top law of his heart. Allah wants us to go through the process even if we may not understand what it means. We go through the process of building a loquia. Locally, if we are able, but we go through the process of remembering the sacrifices that were made for us, we also remember that it is not the blood of animals that discard this process of commemoration. It is not the blood that reaches Allah SWT. It is the top law of that action. It is the top law of fear of Allah SWT behind that action. Allah SWT will give us the iman and the faith of Allah SWT. We ask Allah SWT to give us the iman and the faith of the people who listen to Allah SWT. We ask Allah SWT to give us the faith of the people who listen to Allah SWT in their sacrifice, and in their sacrifice, and in their submission to Allah SWT. O Allah, make us the people who truly submit to your order and be Muslim as our father, the one who called us Muslim. He is the one who called us Muslims and gave us the name Muslims. May Allah SWT grant us all the faith, the sacrifice, the submission of all the blessed people and that we follow on their footsteps and that when we are faced with a choice between not following the order of Allah SWT and following His order and we have the submission of the akham and we say to Allah, not waste us away as we follow this order. Allah SWT, give us that iman and give us that conviction and give us that faith. Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah. I ain't joining you when I approach you if you have not done any combat if you have not done Oka'a and you do it during these three days you have at least three days to do the Oka'a. According to Allah, my need is an obligation if you are financially able according to the other scholars it is a strong recognition and certain according to some scholars they say, even if you have to borrow money to do the Oka'a you should do that and it's not just a simple act there is a lot of need behind that act. Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah.
