Salam alaikum Quran weekly once again
I'm here to share with you actually my
favorite iron out of the Koran but of
the passage of Ramadan and the ayah is
where dasa adhikari budyonny
in the Caribe OG buddha wat da da da
dong funniest AG bully well you know be
not long your children and there's so
many beautiful things in this ayah i
want to share with you first of all it
begins with a alaka'i body whenever your
slave asks you about me the ayahs to the
prophet's life salam and people used to
come and ask about allah and they used
to ask you know what's the thing Allah
likes the most how do I pray to him the
best way etc etc etc and you know in
this ayah Allah is not talking to us
he's talking to the Prophet but he
doesn't say if the slave comes and ask
to you
he says when because it's like Allah his
waiting you know if is if he comes he
comes but when is it's like a lesson
anticipation for the slave to wonder
about him the master he's anticipating
us to come and ask about him you know
I were to inquire about him to get to
know who he is that's captured in the
world either
then the slave comes and asks you a my
slave comes and ask you about me i nee
usually Allah says I'm not about us I
need not about Allah he doesn't say us
he doesn't say Allah he says me the word
mean the Quran is expressed when Allah
highlights particular unusual amount of
closeness it still it says though Allah
is so pleased it's so happy with someone
who wants to ask about him that he comes
close to him himself he's already taken
an act you know take an initiative of
closeness by saying me your slave asked
my my slave asked you about me now I'll
translate what's not in the ayah here's
what we expect to read when my slave
asks you my slaves ask you about me then
tell them that I am near because the
entire conversation is with the Prophet
they're coming and asking the prophet
sallallaahu I said them so they should
expect a response from the Prophet so
the Allah is going to teach the Prophet
what to tell them but that's not what
happens what happens is incredible the
rest the next words in the IR for in the
edebe then I am near it says though they
came and asked a prophet but the
messenger said sallallahu our lives
alone I
respond myself to them I'll talk to them
myself in nuclei that I am near no doubt
about it I myself am near in other words
you don't even have to ask the Prophet I
thought of Salam or wait for the Prophet
to give you the response I will give you
the response I'll draw in gage with you
directly
so Allah shows his intent his want of
dealing with us directly Subhan Allah
it's so beautiful the words we learned
from the prophets I saw them teach us to
connect directly to Allah that's the
essence of our Deen we have a direct
relationship with God
many of us have messed up in life we've
made a lot of mistakes none of us are an
exception I'm no exception you're no
exception we've messed up plenty in life
but that's no excuse for us not to have
a direct relationship with Allah and
Allah says if you just inquire about me
that's enough for me to want to engage
with you directly in conversation nobody
should wonder about a line by the way
that's the spirit of Doha right Ramadan
is the month of dawn when we make dog we
should just deal with elan directly
don't just recite words that you've
memorized know what they mean and mean
them as a conversation with Allah like
you're talking to him and it's totally
fine for you to make duaa in English
it's okay whatever language you know
talk to a line that language it's nice
for you to memorize the doors it's great
but the spirit of door is that you're
talking to Allah if you know what those
dollars mean that's nice that's
beautiful
and don't just recite them don't you
celebrate in effort dunya has no
velocity no Kannada but now you're
holding your hands you're regurgitating
the words but there's no conversation
happening between you and Allah you're
missing the point
you asked about a lot and a lock em so
near and then he said something even
more beautiful Mooji would not let had
an da da da and actually he said I
respond I respond immediately would you
actually means I'm I respond immediately
and I will respond it carries the
present and the future you know what
that does it gives us hope now you meet
some people sometimes like Allah is not
gonna answer my prayers bro you don't
know I'm super messed up Allah says o ji
boo I do and I will there I wanted but
you know not my prayers you'll answer
the prayers of the Imam the khadi the
guy who's leading thought are we if the
guys got nice recitation and the guy was
much more religious than I am the girl
that wears hijab etc etc those are the
good Muslims unless gonna answer them
Allah says he would are what a diary I
will respond to the call
the caller he didn't say the call of the
believer the call of the Muslim the call
of the one who submits the call of the
righteous to call him to slave the call
of the worshiper he didn't use any of
those descriptions he said the call of
the caller anybody who calls qualifies
to be a caller you don't have to be a
special person to be one calling on
Allah so by using the word there is the
call of the caller Allah opened the
invitation to anybody who just wants to
engage in the act on call of calling on
Allah he didn't put any other criteria
in this ayah except just be a caller and
then the additional thing that's that
just makes me just so amazed in all of
alonzo of them is that you know imagine
I know it's gonna be a hard example to
follow but I'll do my best to make it
easy
imagine you have like you're the CEO of
a 500 employee company and you know you
meet some secretary some like you know
reception is some cleric some intern
you're the CEO you have to make big
decisions but these employees you know
maybe you have had a conversation with
them once in a while but you don't
remember because you're too many things
to deal with you
there's too many bigger things on your
mind so you don't remember them and if
they make a request of you they send you
an email or whatever it probably gets
buried because it's not that priority
for you the more important someone is
and the more people under them the
harder it is to get to them and make
individual requests right it's just
difficult
imagine who's gonna be more important
and who has more people under him than
Allah and top for a lot to know each one
of us and know our entire personal
situation and then to appreciate us so
much that he doesn't just say I
appreciate or I respond to the call of a
caller any caller by saying any caller
we would be anonymous right any any
caller he said the caller
it says no Allah knows us personally you
are a v2 him not an a you're not a
caller you are the e-collar that one
over there yeah I know that one I know
what he's going to know I know what he
asked me it says personal Allah is
expressing his personal closeness to you
so much so that he can distinguish you
from the millions and billions of others
that have made on to him at the same
time but he's making
very distinct so you none of us gets to
think yeah when are we good when is our
requests gonna get processed Allah
didn't hear that or Allah is you know
he's got bigger things he's got a
universe to run Subhan Allah would you
would not let that Valley then the next
thing the more important somebody is the
harder it is to make time with them it's
a logical fact they're busy doing so
many things so if you say I want a
one-on-one meeting with the CEO you
might have to wait a year six months
eight months whatever you know you can't
just go meet with them in our society
for example you want to meet with an
important scholar you can't just walk up
and just meet them you're gonna have an
appointment you got a schedule a time
etc etc because they've got tons of
things to do
Allah says when can you talk to me
either Don whenever he calls night and
day I will be available Allah is making
himself incredibly available to this
person all of this is in the context of
Ramadan by the way we are given these
motivations in Ramadan you know what
that teaches us may go crazy with joy in
Ramadan get really really close to Allah
and get used to being close to a line
Ramadan break the barriers between you
and online I'm alive in that I'm then he
says this is the my favorite part of the
ayah fun yesterday bully and they should
try to respond to me too they're asking
me for things they're asking me Allah
make the exam easy Y Allah let that
marriage proposal go through I really
like her I want to marry her y'all love
the house let me get an approval on that
house let the immigration paperwork come
through whatever whatever people's
requests are people make requests and
Allah says yes you made your requests
and I will respond whenever you call I
will respond but you should try to
respond to me too I have made certain
requests of you - from yesterday buddy
but he doesn't say if I'll Yuji bully
they should respond he said they should
try to respond yes stagy bully at least
make the effort Allah wants to see
effort from you and me that we are
actually making effort to respond to
what his demands on us are and he didn't
ask us for much he didn't ask us for
much fun yesterday bully well you mean
we'll be and when they when they when
they when they respond to me then they
should believe in me you know these
words are really important they're not
just extra words in the ayah and in the
wisdom of this ayah this is of paramount
importance they should believe in
why you would say obviously the one
making dua to Allah already believes in
him
why even add this phrase because when
you ask Allah for something and it
doesn't come right away it starts
shattering your faith
so Allah says keep the faith believe I
heard your dog I know the best way to
respond to it I will respond to it in a
way that is better for even you couldn't
imagine how good my response will be you
may have asked for something that's not
good for you and I will respond with
something way better than what you even
asked you may have asked for something
if it came to you right now it would
hurt you so I held it back from you and
I'll give it to you when it's best for
you
Allah Azza WA JAL says just believe just
trust believe in me well you me newbie
and finally he ends the ayah that I love
Rumer the line last two videos we've
talked about Dada
so that perhaps hopefully this is the
climax the end of the surah or the ayah
yup sure don't so that they may be set
straight they may go the right way we're
learning a very deep secret of Islam
here we're learning people who really
really learn how to make Dora who really
connect to a lion conversation that is
enough for them to be to leave live a
straight life to live a life of
righteousness to be guided because their
relationship with Allah their
recognition that Allah is always
listening always ready to listen he's
constantly watching makes them so aware
of Allah that it becomes very difficult
for them to live a crooked life to live
a deviant life to live a misguided life
du'a is the key you know and the
prophets are some total mahalia bada
it's the essence it's the brains of
worship it's at the heart of worship the
fatiha is the heart of the Quran and in
that heart of the quran the essence of
the quran half of it is a door half of
allah says allah teaching us to ask him
directly me allah so it'll make us
people of du'a so that we can be set
right this Ramadan and may Allah Azza WA
JAL cleanse our hearts so we feel closer
and closer and closer to Allah in in in
this Ramadan
my last point in shallower I will let
you go when we make dora we're talking
to allah right
well me make dog we're talking to allah
but in a conversation they're supposed
to be two ways you know the a talks to b
and b talks today we're talking to allah
we're also expecting a lot of talk to us
that's why this is the month of the
Quran we are conversing with Allah Allah
and Allah is conversing with us through
the Quran so the conversation is
complete we allow the rigid make us a
people of conversation with our master
Marik Allah he will echo assalamu
alaikum Quran weekly assalamu alaikum
Quran weekly
the prophesy sallam told us a dollar on
Delhi caffarelli he the one who points
to something good is gets the same
reward as the one who did the good
itself do me a favor and do all of
yourselves a favor and share in the
goodness if you benefited from these
talks in these videos make it a point to
share them with friends and family and
get the word out this is such an awesome
project I really really appreciate the
effort hold on weekly folks have made
and I pray that Allah blesses them even
more and brings even more and more good
from them these kinds of efforts
you know we Allah tells us whoever
doesn't think that people hasn't thanked
Allah know the hadith of the Prophet SAW
Sodom teaches us that so we should do
that we should appreciate the effort
that's being made here and the best way
to appreciate their effort is to help
them get more reward and get yourself
more reward at the same time by
spreading the word echad o Allah
thank you again Salaam alaikum
