 بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام علي سيدنا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه ومن تبعهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد كما هذه المملكة سوف يأتي إلى مجموعة بالنسبة بأنها مجموعة ومملكة نبقى سبحانه وتعالى فهو يقوم إلى أمام يوم المعدودات ومملكة مملكة ومالكة نصف مملكة ومالكة كما تأتي إلى تقوى ومالكة وماذا هو نصف مملكة من الله سبحانه وتعالى كل ما نحاول في هذا المملك يوجد من المملكات كل ذلك هو أن نصف مملكة ومن فقد نحن يمكننا أن نصف مملكة في قاعدة مملكة التي يوجدنا فإن we are amongst those who are the winners and those who are successful وإن لم نكن نصف مملكة فهو ليس فتاة because all it takes is one sincere moment, literally a sincere moment, to remember Allah سبحانه و تعالى Allah reminds us Ask Allah سبحانه و تعالى silently with lots of humility Find that one moment with Allah سبحانه و تعالى and all will be good Insha'Allah So there's a few things first of all As we close these nights We've been reminded again and again Let us increase our ذكر of اللهم إنك عفوه تحب العفوة فعفو أني Oh Allah إنك عفوه You are the one who forgives تحب العفوة You love to forgive So forgive me Make this dua in any language عائشة رضي الله عنها Narrates this from the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم And it's been narrated that سفيان ثوري who writes For me, dua in this night is better than prayer Now that doesn't mean that he wouldn't pray It would just mean that he personally would find A certain satisfaction in dua That he would not find in prayer On this specific night Right? So whatever it is that we do Waking up a little early for سحور So that we can get in our تهجد Whatever it is extra that we can do During these nights Let's make it count Let's have a few more nights left We're almost there And insha'Allah The blessing is with Allah سبحانه وتعالى Also keeping in mind That no one No one should end this month With a feeling of guilt No one should end this month Feeling that what they have done Has not been accepted No one should end this month Feeling that this Ramadan Was not a good Ramadan Or this Ramadan was a bad Ramadan There's no such thing as a bad Ramadan There's no such thing as not a good Ramadan There's no such thing as my actions Have not been accepted by Allah سبحانه وتعالى Though we are reminded that there would be people As I mentioned earlier Who would make dua for six months after Ramadan For Allah to accept their عبادة of their Ramadan But that means insha'Allah That Allah will accept our عبادة And we don't want anyone to end this month This month of the blessed month of Ramadan This beautiful month of Ramadan Thinking that my actions weren't accepted I wasn't able to go to the masjid So I didn't get my extra rewards That I wasn't able to host people for iftar So I won't get that extra reward Whatever actions that we have been able to do In the past That we haven't been able to do this month Should not be a reason For us to think that this was not a good Ramadan This was not a fulfilling Ramadan Simply because we weren't able to do those actions And we would have Had we had the ability to do so Insha'Allah We have a reward with Allah سبحانه وتعالى Without even doing them And the fact that we want to do them And we aren't able to do them Then insha'Allah There's an increase in our reward With Allah سبحانه وتعالى Do not underestimate the power of Allah Do not underestimate the mercy Of Allah سبحانه وتعالى This is not a time to be having Negative thoughts about Allah This is a time about having Positive thoughts about Allah سبحانه وتعالى The mercy of Allah سبحانه وتعالى The acceptance from Allah سبحانه وتعالى And this is what leads us Into our Eid This is what leads us into our Eid It's been mentioned Abdullah Ibn Abbas رضي الله عنهما Narrates And we want to talk about رمضان We don't know when it will be Naturally moonsighting So whatever Whichever night it is Abdullah Ibn Abbas رضي الله عنهما Narrates That the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم Said That if thought on each night In Ramadan Hundreds of thousands of individuals Are freed from the fire of hell But on Friday That many people are freed Every moment And when the last night Of Ramadan arrives Allah سبحانه وتعالى Freezes and forgives The amount of people That He has freed And forgiven During the course Of the entire month So if If Just in case We haven't made it into That list All we gotta do is Get that last moment Of Ramadan That last day If tonight is the Sighting of the moon Then make sure That we are While we make arrangements To sight the moon And fulfill that sunnah But let us Make sure That we spend a few moments Alone With Allah سبحانه وتعالى Ask him for forgiveness Allah will not allow Any believer Who asks him for forgiveness To not be forgiven During this blessed month All we have to do Is ask And if it's not That night And if we Complete 30 nights Then of course We know for a fact That عيد will be The next day Then on the 30th Night evening of Ramadan Before Salat المغرب Make dua To Allah سبحانه وتعالى For the acceptance Of our deeds Right For the acceptance Of our deeds For forgiveness For a blessed future That may Allah سبحانه وتعالى Relieve the Ummah Relieve the entire Earth With the difficulty That it happens to be Going through Right Asking Allah سبحانه وتعالى And as we're talking About dua And as all of us Make dua In our homes With our families With our children With our parents I ask you to keep Me and my family In your blessed Dua As well So keep in mind That the nights of عيد Right Are considered to be Nights of عبادة And worship Right These are nights Of عبادة And worship The prophet It's been narrated That the prophet Although Ramadan would technically Be over At the time of Maghrib He wouldn't go home He would remain In the masjid Go directly To the And then proceed To his home From there Who ever stands In prayer In the nights of عيد For the pleasure Of Allah سبحانه وتعالى His heart Will not die On the day All the hearts Will die In other words If we can Take a few moments On the night of عيد After عشاء Just as we have been Praying Every day And we have been Making to Hajj Every day If we can take a few Moments And pray a few Extra ركع Allah سبحانه وتعالى And cause And allow Our hearts To always Be alive Always be Conscious Aware Of Allah سبحانه وتعالى Aware Of our Surroundings Aware Right Of The reality Of this life Aware Of the importance Of the hereafter In Sha Allah Mu'ad ibn جبل رضي الله Is narrated Is narrated That the prophetFor the one Who keeps Five nights alive The night of ترويillah The night of عرافة The night of أضع Hope Can Rock Aud أكد If we Haven't built AlFithl Although An obligation Bot في الم makeup مقاتل المقارنة لكن نعرف نقول مقاطل مقارنة في دولار لكن تقوم بأعطة كثير من الأشياء لو you can give more please go ahead and do so also it seems like عيدة this year may be very very very very unique and very very

to give the Fidia right we've been able to give the Fidia that lengthy حديث you know an individual made a mistake had to give a kaffara comes to the Prophet ﷺ and the Prophet ﷺ gives him all these options in the end right he couldn't fulfill any of the options not even given charity and when dates were brought in charity the Prophet ﷺ asked for him and said give this to that man so he can give these dates in charity and he responds to the Prophet ﷺ he says oh messenger of God give this to a family that's poorer than my family so let us be grateful that for those of us that haven't been able to fast we were able to give the Fidia there's so much to be grateful for there's so much to celebrate right I just received word from someone who says that all of a sudden they've lost eyesight in one of their eyes subhan Allah let us we have so much to be grateful for yes yes unfortunately we cannot celebrate with the community at the masjid or at the fairgrounds or at some large hall where we have all dressed up and we're with our family and friends and saying to be a lot of and so on and so forth I get that I totally understand that we're totally going to miss that this Ramadan and this is going to go down in history like never before but let us insha'Allah be grateful for all that which we have and I'm going to recommend especially parents of young children make it a celebration
