today I just like to say to all my
brothers and sisters in Islam and you
know what Islam means by now it means to
acquire peace we all want
peace but we can't buy a six-pack of
Peace you got to turn to the owner of
Peace the one who created you that's
right the creator of the heavens and
earth turn to him alone and ask him
sincerely sincerely ask him for peace
ask him to guide you and to give you all
the good that he has in store for you
but you got to do his will you got to do
what he wants you to do on his terms and
that's
Islam acquiring Peace by submitting your
will to the owner of Peace so all my
brothers and sisters in Islam don't be
sad don't be sad you're on the true way
of life the True Religion the way of
life of all the messengers of God
believing in one God and all the
messengers of of God taught this way of
life don't be sad you got Jenna in store

without any Associates and you keep
letting your belief be manifest in your
actions cuz talk is cheap you're backing
it up that's right you're backing it up
you're not kicking it at the nightclub
you're not sipping a little Hennessy
you're not slip sipping that Jack and
Coke or vodka and Kool-Aid whatever the
case no no you're leaving off all the
evil things for your creator your
sacrificing
yes and you're developing yourself and
you're helping to uplift Society so
don't be sad you're on the correct
way as Allah Allah has said in the Quran
in chapter 9: 40 he says this is a la
speaking pay
attention bear with patience whatever
befalls you Allah is saying this Allah
says in the Quran in chapter 3117 Allah
is saying and be not sad surely Allah is
with us surely Allah is with us
amazing now another authentic that was
the rebating word of God Allah is
speaking and Allah is not a moon God
he's the one who created the Sun and the
Moon he's not a man but the creator of
man and
woman Allah is
saying and telling us this to be patient
bear with patience whatever befalls you
now the last and final Messenger to sent
to mankind check out what he says in an
authentic Hadith this is narrated in in
ter he says verily if Allah loves the
people he makes them go through
trials whoever is satisfied for him is
contentment and whoever is angry upon
Him is wrath Subhan Allah Allah will
make you
contempt and you get the Ed you get the
good deeds you get the
reward being sad is not encouraging his
it's not encouraged to be sad in Islam
it's not Allah is saying look what Allah
is saying again look at this in the
Quran chapter
3139 Allah is saying so do not become
weak nor be
sad Allah don't want you to be sad in
another verse in the Quran Allah is
saying in chapter 16 1227 Allah is
saying and grieve not over them and be
not distressed because of what they plot
don't be sad don't be sad sadness
prevents one from action instead of
compelling one towards it the heart does
not benefit through grief the most
beloved thing to the devil is the is is
to hinder the worshipper in the path of
Allah the Creator the Muslim must repel
sadness and fight it in any way that is
permissible Islam fight the sadness in a
Hal way in a per permissible way Allah
is sufficient for us Allah is saying in
the Quran in another verse Allah is
saying look what Allah is saying in
chapter 3173 Allah is saying Allah is
sufficient for us and he is the best
disposer of Affairs so they returned
with Grace and Bounty from Allah no harm
touched them and they follow the good
pleasure of Allah and Allah is the owner
of great
Bounty let me share with you another
verse from the Quran Allah is saying in
chapter 5
3 in the verbatim word of God Allah is
saying and put your trust in Allah if
you are believers indeed Allah is saying
it's not Eddie saying Allah is saying
and put your trust in Allah God the
Creator if you are believers indeed in
another verse in the Quran look these up
look these up people chapter
2153 Allah is saying oh you who believe
seek help in patience and prayer seek
help in patience and prayer we got
the we got the
antidote we got the Cure it's in the
Quran and the Sunnah we got it but are
we turning to Allah at these times of
frustration anger
confusion are we that's the question
because this is a opportunity for you to
get closer to Allah Allah wants to
elevate you in status but are running
away from Allah are turning more towards
Allah and you won't find someone who
continuously turns back to Allah in
patience and prayer you won't find them
being
depressed or if they are they won't be
depressed for long I'm telling you that
this is a fact by leaving your Affairs
to Allah the Creator by depending on him
by trusting in his promise by being
pleased with his
decree by
thinking favorably of him and by waiting
patiently patiently for his
help you reap some of the great fruits
of
faith when you incorporate these
qualities you will be at peace I'm
telling you you will be at peace
concerning the future because you will
depend on your lord for everything as a
result you will find Care Help
protection and victory protection and
victory yes indeed protection and
victory now we're moving along we're
moving along as we started and said
don't be sad Allah don't want you to be
sad don't be
sad now when we understand the
preordainment the of Allah this will
help you to be in a state of acceptance
you're going to deal with the situation
much better you won't have suicidal
thoughts or Tendencies no that's not
even an option for a Believer we don't
commit suicide we don't run out the back
door we deal with the situation the way
that is pleasing to the one who created
us and he sends the relief he sends the
victory as Allah is saying check this
out in the
Quran in chapter 57:22 Allah is saying
and no
Calamity befalls on Earth or in
yourselves inside yourselves but it is
inscribed in the book of
decrees before we bring it into
existence Subhan Allah when you know the
the pen is dried and the pages have been
lifted all events shall come to pass
have already been written whatever has
befalling you was not meant to escape
you and whatever has escaped you was not
meant to befall you if this belief were
to be firmly ingrained in your heart
then all all hardships and difficulties
will become ease and comfort they will
become ease and comfort moving on to
another authentic Hadith see when we
listen to these verses from the verbatim
word of God this is the help coming
ponder over this and then the authentic
sayings from the last and final
messenger this is the wisdom these are
gems of wisdom this is what this is our
medicine the prophet peace be upon him
said in authentic Hadith Inari he said
whoever Allah this is the creator
whoever Allah wishes good for he
inflicts him with
hardship we've done some sins now it's a
way of
purifying us from our sins you don't
want to spend a second in the Hellfire
and you can't tell me you're free of
sins no no no no you're
not so Allah is elevating Us in rank and
during these times we turn to him
more and we beseech him more when things
are good you you sometimes forget don't
you you sometimes forget but what
doesn't break you or make you stronger
for those who are afflicted With
Disaster Glad Tidings await them so
remain patient and happy with your lord
as Allah is saying in the Quran in
chapter
21:23 he cannot be questioned as to what
he does while they will be questioned
there's a day of judgment coming you
ain't going to be questioning Allah
Allah does not commit Injustice in the
least degree human being beings commit
Injustice towards themselves by turning
away from their creator and they commit
Injustice towards others know that Allah
is the most just Allah is the most just
and with every hardship as Allah is
saying verely with every hardship there
is relief there is ease as Allah says in
the Quran chapter
94 verse 6 verely with hardship there is
relief it's coming just be patient
moving on to another Ayah in the Quran
which is the verb word of God chapter
552 Allah is saying perhaps Allah may
bring Victory or a decision according to
his will everything is under Allah's
will and command and
control just go with the flow continue
to make your Salat five times a day
continue to turn back to your creator
worshiping none but him reading the
Quran doing good to yourself to your
family and to others
and when we look at many of the trials
and tests that the prophets peace be
upon them they
endured nothing that we will ever go
through
can could could be even closer similar
to what they went
through as ibraim
alisam Abraham Our Father Abraham he was
thrown into the fire he was thrown into
the fire but Allah made it cool for him
we Allah said oh fire be you you
coolness and safety for him so one will
think wow being in the fire that's hot
but Allah made it cool for him so Allah
will make your situation cool just don't
lose it don't lose it be cool Allah will
make it cool Allah is testing you and
when you happy with your lord in any
Calamity you praise him you beseech him
what you're going through someone else
might say like wow how can you endure
you say you know what the help of Allah
is always near the help of Allah is
always near it's near And when they see
you happy and content with the situation
they say I want some of
that I want some of that happiness and
peace I got drama and don't think that
anyone is going or not going through
drama in their life from the womb to the
tomb and there's just drama in between
the person with the most money that
individual with the most cars and houses
and mansions they got more dilemmas and
problems than you trust me Trust me that
person who's a king and all he's worried
about he's worried about somebody taking
his seat and that is what is taking
his mind and having him go into Despair
and he's got so much drama and stress
but look at you look at you you have a
law on your mind you have the Creator
who is there with you and you truly
believe because you are letting your
belief be manifest in your actions
the prophet peace be upon him last and
final message sent to mankind he said be
mindful of Allah be mindful of the
Creator Allah you will find him before
you get to know Allah in
prosperity and he will know you in
adversity and know that Victory comes
with patience look at this Victory comes
with patience
relief with Affliction and ease with
hardship this is an authentic
determin ponder over these these gems of
wisdom accept life as it is if you read
the Quran you will see that all the
prophets went through trials and
tribulations life is a test it's a test
brothers and sisters so let us learn
from the best examples of the
prophets Allah is saying in the Quran
chapter 2 214 or think you that you will
enter Paradise without such trials as
came to those who passed away before you
they were Afflicted with severe
poverty ailments and were
shaken this is the nature of this life
it's a test you're being tested and to
go from one level to the next it's a
harder test but the the prize is Jenna
the prize is Paradise and the test will
be
easy the test will seem easy if you seek
Allah 's help he'll make it easy he'll
make it easy we should know that if we
are pleased with Allah with our Lord he
will be pleased with us it's a fact and
if you are pleased with your lord no
matter what the situation is then you
will find that you have earned your
Lord's pleasure on the other hand on the
other hand check this out there are
hypocrites whom Allah rejects their
deeds they are displeased with Allah
dispas with what Allah sends down and
they hate seeking his pleasure thus
their deeds are performed in vain may
Allah protect us for being from being
those Hypocrites those people who in
Calamity strike that we start breaking
down and we start going out of our mind
and may Allah help us to be patient
through prayer and his remembrance and
knowing that with every hardship comes
ease your your your
recompense the reward is with Allah
when Allah the exalted takes something
away from you he compensates it with
something better but only if you are
patient and seek his reward the prophet
peace be upon him last and final
messenger sent to
mankind who was a messenger just like
Jesus Moses Abraham they all called to
the Oneness of the one
Creator he said whoever loses a loved
one from the people of this world and
then seeks recompense
with his Lord will be compensated with
Paradise that's right Paradise a person
will be shown paradise and then that
person will be asked did you see any
hardships when they see all the
beautiful Delights in store for them in
Paradise they say no they'll quickly
forget so don't be sad as we started
don't be sad now moving along knowing
that knowing that those who are in this
world and are close to the creator of
Allah will be raised in the highest of
Jenna the highest levels of Jenna
paradise and as Allah says in the Quran
chapter 13: 24 Allah is saying that
they'll be greeted check this out with
with the greetings of Peace as they
enter peace be upon you because you
persevered in patience excellent indeed
is the final home the final home is
Jenna you'll be greeted with peace when
you enter Jenna Paradise because what
again Allah is taking it back to
patience Allah again is taking it back
to patience patience if we just had a
little more patience when something hit
you and now you just snapped and now you
just went out of your mind and you are
full of even more regret or regret and
then you look back and you say if I just
had an ounce if I just had another
spoonful of patience don't let it come
to that have patience before you lose
your mind don't lose your mind know that
there is a great reward for you being
patience Allah is with the patient the
Creator is with the
patient and there's nothing nothing
nothing worth you earning the
displeasure of Allah and the way you
earn his pleasure is through being
obedient to him turning to him and being
patient
knowing that when we turn to our creator
when we remember Allah as Allah says in
the Quran chapter 13:28 Allah says this
is Allah the Creator the same God of
Jesus the Same God of Moses Noah Abraham
that God is saying verely in the
remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest
verely in the remembrance of God the
Creator Allah do hearts find rest you
don't have to take the Xanax you don't
have to turn to the drugs you don't have
to turn to any of the chemicals all you
have to do is turn to Allah is that easy
turn to Allah and remember him and your
heart will find rest ah is saying in the
Quran chapter 2 verse 152 therefore
remember me and I will remember you
isn't that beautiful Allah is telling
you it's real simple remember Allah and
Allah remember you are you remembering
Allah continue to make sure that all
your actions are according to his will
get away from all the things that might
be displeasing Allah the
sins the things that aren't beneficial
to your development to be a better
Muslim to be a better submitter to one
to the one who created you make sure
you're leaving off the sins make sure
you're stain away everything that is
harmful to your Spiritual Development
and turn to Allah and turn to your
creator loving Allah knowing him
remembering him seeking peace in him
singling him
out for complete love fear hope and
dependence only on Allah these qualities
when combined in a person constitute a
sort of Heaven on Earth these are
qualities that bring peace to those who
love Allah who love their creator a sort
of peace that has no comparison in this
world it is important that a special
relationship exists in the heart between
the slave and his Lord You're the slave
you ain't the
Lord remember that you have one
that's created you this relationship
with the one who created you will and
that allows the slave to feel so close
to his Lord that he requires no other
when you have this Con connection with
Allah you feel like you don't need
nobody else it's special thus he finds
company when he is alone and he tastes
the sweetness of remembering him and
supplicating to him Allah Allah's slave
will continually face hardship and
difficult difficulty until he dies or
she dies but if he has a special
relationship with his Lord Allah all the
hardships of Life check this out all the
hardships of life will become
easy for him or her it will become
easy it will become easy so you know
you'll be tested but Allah will make it
easy you just got to be connected with
the one who created you you got to be
connected 24/7 there's no breaks there's
no breaks from the one who created you
the
prayer the
prayer the Quran Allah is saying in it
in chapter 2153 oh you who believe seek
help and patience and
prayer by earnestly performing the five
daily prayers not 1 2 3 or four but five
we a achieve the greatest of
blessings cleared of our sins and
increase in our rank with our
Lord Prayer is a potent reminder for our
sickness for it instills our
faith in our
Lord it instills faith in our
souls as for those that keep away from
the mid from the houses of Allah and
away from the prayer for them is
unhappiness you can see wretchedness and
an embittered
life you rarely see the person who's
turning to his Lord turning to the one
God the Creator who's patient who's
praying giving in
charity you don't see that person
falling into despair but the person
that's away from the
Masid who's away from prayer you'll see
some of these people living the worst
wretched lives unhappy unstable
but they all they had to do was a simple
thing and they didn't do it they didn't
remember Allah so they forgot their
their very selves don't be a person who
forgot his very self never forget Allah
never forget
Allah now we're almost coming to an end
for this week's Dean show radio show so
as we end this take a moment to reflect
really take a moment to reflect get away
from everyone and everybody and all the
TV and music all these things that don't
help you de develop yourself they
confuse you and they bring your desires
to a heat and they put you in a state of
sin watching things that the eyes
shouldn't see
promiscuity boys and girls mingling
mingle with the opposite gender but in
marriage not dating test driving no so
so those look who are mindful of Allah
Allah helps
them now the person whose mind is
wrapped up in grief let's
reflect those whose eyes are loaded with
tears I want you to relax and know that
your creator
AIDS and that his Mercy will bring you
peace and know that your reward is
secure with him
your reward is
secure with he who doesn't disappoint
the one who seeks to please him are you
seeking to please Allah because Allah
won't disappoint you be at peace for
after
poverty comes joyous meeting and after
sleepiness comes sound rest all you who
are oppressed in the lands who suffer
from Hunger pain sickness and poverty
rejoice in the knowledge that you will
soon be
satisfied with food and that you will be
happy and in good
health this is the promise from Allah
this is the promise from the one who
created this whole universe and
everything in
it let us make this supplications let us
make these supplications their purpose
being to eliminate hardship anxiety and
grief there is none worthy of worship
except Allah the creator of the heavens
and earth the ever forbearing the most
great there is none worthy of worship
except Allah the lord of the tremendous
Throne there is none worthy of
worship there is none worthy of worship
but the one who sustains and protects
all that exists that is Allah there is
none worthy of worship except you Allah
and by your mercy do we seek your Aid
and as Allah has said and as Allah has
said be
patient so be patient with a good
patience so be patient with a good
patience now I want to go ahead and just
share one more with
you Allah is saying verely along with
every hardship is relieved verely along
with hardship is relieved so when you
have
finished your occupation devote yourself
from Allah's
worship and to your lord alone turn all
your intentions and
hopes so the formula the antidote for
the sicknesses that we have for the
depression for the
anxiety is in this way of life the way
of life of all the
messengers we just have
to follow it to the best of our ability
stay away from the sins Stay Away From
Evil stay away from people who aren't
helping you to increase in your Iman in
your faith people who are bringing you
down because they're down many people
are miserable people don't know the
purpose of life they don't know their
lord they don't know why they've been
created they're unhappy can those people
really make you happy be nice with
everyone be good with everyone but when
you see somebody trying to take you in
an environment that's not conducive to
the development of your good side you
want to bring out all the good the good
potential that you have
you need to think good thoughts of Allah
you need to act good you need to be good
so you need to be around good people get
good advice from the Quran the verbatim
word of God and the Sunnah of the last
and final messenger sent to mankind the
prophet Muhammad peace be upon him and
