Brothers and sisters, remember as well that this whole life
according to our religion, is a life of tests and trials and
therefore every one of us will be tested and tried in different
ways, but all of us are tested and tried and the one major
mechanism to overcome and pass those tests and trials is what
it is, patience. And that is why Allah says
what's that? He knew the subsidy was Sola
were in the Hanukkah be returned in lol.
Ha cheering seek Allah's. Help.
When you face the calamities, when you have any problems seek
Allah has helped. What's their anal life is
difficult? You need help?
What help are you gonna get a lemon?
Just two things. What's the Anubis sabaidee?
Was Salah seek help through suburb patients and through
Salah prayer. But our professors on his
mother, our mother Aisha said, Our mother Aisha said, whenever
our profit system was troubled with anything, whenever
something bothered him, what would he do?
Fuzzy Allah says Allah, he would rush to stand in Salah, Salah
would make him calm. So that would make him conquer
those problems, those fears, those frustrations.
So patients and Salah are the two things that Allah has told
us to seek help and and also realized my dear brothers and
sisters that beautiful verse in the Quran, that Allah tells us
possible, sabourin jameelah, beep.
Patient, a beautiful patients. So patients is of levels and the
highest level is a beautiful patience.
And a beautiful patience. Is one, when people don't even
realize you're being patient, nobody knows.
Other than Allah that you're being patient.
That is the Perfection of patience.
Nobody can see, you're frustrated.
Nobody can see, you're agitated. Nobody can see that you're
feeling anger. You have mastered it.
So much that only Allah knows and that is the Perfection,
which Allah says possible sub. I'm jameelah perfect.
Your patience until it is a perfect and beautiful patients
and that is why my dear brothers and sisters, Allah loves those
who are patient. Allah loves them and Allah is
with them. In the Quran there are only a
handful of verses where Allah says I love such and such some
Scholars have mentioned a dozen or or a little bit more than
this just a few adjectives. That Allah says I love this
category of people of those Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala says
well loved Ooh, your hippo, sub it in, Allah loves those who are
patient and Allah says that in the law Hamas.
Abedini Allah is with those who are patient so Allah is with
them. When they feel they have nobody,
when they feel everyone has been taken away.
They've been betrayed when they feel that their family has gone
or they've lost a loved one. Allah says, I am with them in
the law Hamas. Abedini Allah is with them.
No muslim should ever feel alone Noble.
Fever should ever feel abandoned because that person that
believer has Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala because Allah has
promised, if you are patient then I shall be with you.
And that is why a patient believer?
A patient believer is worth much more than a Believer who does
not have patience Allah, subhanahu wa'ta'ala mentions.
In the Quran, in those famous verses of Surah, Al anfal that
the people of Mecca, the people of Medina, the Muslims were
complaining. We don't have enough numbers to
fight the quraish. The quraish are too numerous,
there are Much more than us. What does Allah says in the
Quran in yakuman commercial Runa, Sabe Runa, ugly, blue me
again. If you have 20 people who are
patient amongst, you notice, Allah gave the adjectives.
If you have 20, who are patient, they shall overcome 200 of them.
So one person that is patient is equal to 10 who don't have
patience. So look at how Allah subhanahu
wa'ta'ala has praised the reality of patients in the Quran
as well. Links, his forgiveness and
Paradise and the heights of paradise to being patient.
Once again, I repeat Allah links, his forgiveness to
patients Allah says, in the Quran in the lady knows about
what I mean. Oh, sorry, Hattie una economía,
Pharaoh, those who are patient and do good.
They will be the ones who are forgiven.
So, forgiveness, from Allah is linked to patients and entering
Jenna and the highest ranks of Jannah are also linked to being
patient. Allah says, in the Quran that
the people of Jannah, the people of Jannah, the maniacal, yell
Haruna him, and coolly Bob, the angels are entering upon them
from every single door. So imagine you are in Jenna
reclining. On the couches of Jenna, seeing
the beauty of Jenna and the angels are coming to greet you.
What are they saying? What is the phrase of the Angels
salam alaikum Bima saw bottom. Peace be on you because you were
patient. So the people of Jannah got into
Jannah and are being honored by the Angels.
Why Saddam on our a compromise about them peace be on you
because you demonstrated patients.
So the angels have linked your place in Jenna and your status
in Jenna with the reality of you demonstrating patients in this
world and not just any place of Jenna Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala
mentions, the highest place. Of Jenna would like you to zonal
or fatter be possible. They shall be given the highest
ranks. The orphan.
In the Quran, means the highest chambers of genda bhima Subaru
because they were patient. So patients, get you to the
highest level of Jannah. And in fact, Allah himself will
congratulate you for having demonstrated patients, quite
literally in the Quran. Allah himself will congratulate
you Allah, says, in the Quran, in New Jersey to whom glioma the
impossibru and the whom Alpha is on today, Allah speaking in the
first person and it is not common a lot, typically speaks
in the third person, we shall do this, or they shall be blessed.
But in this verse, Allah speaks in the first person, he
addresses us directly in New Jersey to human yomijima Subaru.
Today, I shall give them all that.
They have earned because they were patient.
So Allah himself will take on the responsibility of rewarding
those who were patient. And then Allah says, Because
they are the ones unknown homophobia is own.
They are the ones who have won the race.
You know, in the Quran there is this metaphor of racing to Jenna
of winning the race. Who are the real winners?
Allah, says, the ones who were patient in no mood for his own,
they're the ones who won the race in front of everybody else.
And my dear brothers and sisters.
The one who is patient has a guarantee from Allah, subhanahu
wa'ta'ala. That Allah will help this person
when you feel all other avenues are cut.
When you feel alone you must turn to Allah subhanahu
wa'ta'ala because Allah has promised that the one who is
patient, there is a guarantee, Allah will take care of him.
This is the reality of this world, we all go through our
problems. And a lot as though, Adele has
told us, we need to go through all of these problems.
Having mastered the art of patience and that is why our
Prophet salallahu. I didn't.
He would sell them said, no one has been given something that is
better or more vast than patients.
It is the best blessing to be given because again, patients
and Iman. Go hand in hand.
You cannot be patient unless you have Iman in Allah, and if you
have Iman in Allah, then that will also come with patients and
the ones who are patient shall be rewarded.
Double for all. They have done for all they have
done. They get a double a bonus.
Reward Allah says Allah Kyoto. Natural human retina be Mi about
who those people will be rewarded double because they
were patient. In fact, not just double Not
just double the only time in the Quran that Allah mentions I
shall reward without measure without counting.
Forget double forget triple forget times 10, forget time,
700 times infinity. The only time Allah says it is.
What is when it comes to patients in my you up for
sabudana, add your own home Bin Laden his app, the ones who are
patient, they shall be returned, their reward.
Without any measure or counting Allah will not count how many
times extra rewards you are getting once.
You have mastered the art of patience and my dear brothers
and sisters, the rewards of patience, the blessings of
patients, go on and on and on. So patience means you are
feeling something inside but it is not being shown on the
outside, the grief, the anger, the anguish, the frustration,
whatever it is. Patience means you let it remain
there and not show it on the outside.
That is why patients is so difficult because patients is
not an action. Patients is in action.
I repeat patience is not an action.
Patients is in action. You don't do anything.
Someone has died. Your loved one has passed away.
You control your tongue. You do not will moan grieve in a
manner that is on his La. Mc0, you keep your tongue in
check you lose your job. Something bad happens.
You do not start, moaning and complaining.
Why is this happening to me? I don't deserve this to happen.
Even a stuff, it'll all who are you to challenge?
The wisdom of Allah, who are you to stand up?
And say, why is this happening? Are you alone?
Or are you a servant of Allah? If you are a true servant of
Allah, then you say in that allahi were in that layer on
your own o Allah. You are my Lord.
I don't understand but I trust you.
I trust whatever has happened. Has happened for the best.
I don't understand, but that's because my wisdom is limited.
I am not questioning your wisdom of Allah, I'm questioning my
wisdom and I trust you Allah, you will make things better for
me. This is patience your attitude,
your optimism, your Iman, your words that you say the actions
that you do with are prohibited in Islam from wielding and
grieving from beating ourselves when somebody dies.
This is all how Tom when somebody passes away, we
demonstrate patients, when we lose their job.
When any Calamity happens, when we're in grief, we need to
master ourselves. And remember what our Prophet
salallahu alaihe wasalam said, in impossibru in the
subcommittee, Lula remember eyes his head?
His brothers and sisters because patients, according to this
Hadith is demonstrated at the first stroke of Calamity
patients is demonstrated at the first stroke of Calamity.
IE, when you hear the news, how do you react that is your
patience, everybody becomes patient in two years and two
months in two days, everybody becomes patient.
You have to deal with it. True patients is demonstrated.
When as soon as you find out the news as soon as you hear, That
big disaster. What will be your reaction in
the Masa Bruin? The solid material hula cyber is
demonstrated at the stroke of Calamity and in order to prepare
yourself for that stroke you need to master patience.
Patience is not learned after the Calamity happens patients
has to be earned before. So that when the Calamity
strikes, you are able to control yourself in a patient manner.
