WEBVTT 00:00.031 --> 00:27.034 [SPEAKER_00]: When we say that Allah is al-Qadib in Islam, it's like a warm reminder that you are never truly alone, that even in your darkest toughest times, when you completely feel alone, and as though you feel everything around you is crumbling, and nothing seems clear. 00:28.313 --> 00:36.602 [SPEAKER_00]: or any kind of hardship or loss you go through, or any celebration you go through, a lot tells you that he is always near you. 00:37.703 --> 00:54.540 [SPEAKER_00]: He is near you to bless you, he is near you to respond to you, he is near you to help you, he is near you to uplift you, he's near you to give you comfort, he's near you to give you safety and security. 00:57.338 --> 01:25.017 [SPEAKER_00]: Think of it like an amazing friend who never leaves you alone and whenever in your darkest times or your best times in your best times you feel like calling that friend first and you know darkest times you know that the friend is always there for you you connect with that friend and that friend will always be there for you but although human beings no matter who they are even if they are your own father and mother your own husband and wife your own children. 01:25.098 --> 01:26.600 [SPEAKER_00]: your own cousin, your closest friend. 01:26.640 --> 01:30.785 [SPEAKER_00]: There comes a point where they get annoyed from you, becomes irritating. 01:31.166 --> 01:33.288 [SPEAKER_00]: They can't keep staying there for you. 01:33.809 --> 01:37.133 [SPEAKER_00]: Even your celebrations, they can't keep attending every single invite. 01:38.055 --> 01:41.739 [SPEAKER_00]: We humans with the lack of patience in our nature. 01:42.640 --> 01:47.407 [SPEAKER_00]: But Allah, God is telling us, he is Al-Gharib, the close in the air. 01:47.427 --> 01:54.075 [SPEAKER_00]: What that means is that he is never not near. 01:54.562 --> 01:56.644 [SPEAKER_00]: He never gives up being close to you. 01:57.866 --> 02:02.291 [SPEAKER_00]: If you call him night and day, you will feel that he is always near you. 02:03.132 --> 02:03.772 [SPEAKER_00]: Until you die. 02:03.792 --> 02:09.098 [SPEAKER_00]: And if you stay close to him in the year after when you are raised on the day of judgment, he will be near you too. 02:10.240 --> 02:11.361 [SPEAKER_00]: And he will be brought near to him. 02:11.801 --> 02:16.026 [SPEAKER_00]: Those who are near to Allah in this world will be near to Allah in the year after. 02:18.849 --> 02:23.775 [SPEAKER_00]: The name of my dear brothers and sisters 02:23.823 --> 02:28.650 [SPEAKER_00]: with Allah, not necessarily physically, but spiritually and emotionally. 02:30.633 --> 02:40.247 [SPEAKER_00]: And Allah is al-Karib, meaning that it gives you an uplifting inspirational feeling. 02:40.267 --> 02:45.254 [SPEAKER_00]: And when you find yourself as I said in tough situations, al-Karib is there. 02:46.276 --> 02:49.020 [SPEAKER_00]: Everyone can leave you, but Allah will never leave you. 02:50.738 --> 03:03.270 [SPEAKER_00]: So whether you're celebrating good times or going through challenges and grief, remembering the name al-qaddi, the near and the close one, can help you feel that divine presence. 03:04.652 --> 03:06.233 [SPEAKER_00]: We don't need anyone else but Allah. 03:09.997 --> 03:16.003 [SPEAKER_00]: My brothers and sisters, I remember myself when I was a teenager back in high school. 03:17.165 --> 03:21.170 [SPEAKER_00]: I was probably among the few who was religiously practicing. 03:23.472 --> 03:24.493 [SPEAKER_00]: I think I was pretty cool. 03:26.275 --> 03:32.202 [SPEAKER_00]: But there are certain things that I was loyal to in my religion, that I didn't share with other people. 03:32.222 --> 03:33.223 [SPEAKER_00]: I went to a public school. 03:33.363 --> 03:34.545 [SPEAKER_00]: They were non-Muslims around me. 03:34.885 --> 03:36.507 [SPEAKER_00]: But the ones who really hurt me the most were Muslims. 03:37.748 --> 03:38.149 [SPEAKER_00]: Muslims. 03:39.410 --> 03:40.271 [SPEAKER_00]: Muslim teenagers. 03:42.093 --> 03:46.378 [SPEAKER_00]: And the reason with them is because they wanted to fit in. 03:48.383 --> 03:50.125 [SPEAKER_00]: They overstretched it. 03:51.306 --> 03:53.409 [SPEAKER_00]: As they say, teenagers say, they were extra. 03:54.250 --> 03:56.753 [SPEAKER_00]: Trying to appease the other friends. 03:57.534 --> 04:00.658 [SPEAKER_00]: In order to appease the other friends, you can't walk around someone like me. 04:02.700 --> 04:07.906 [SPEAKER_00]: I remember one time, a couple of them boy and Gil came to me and you're right. 04:09.148 --> 04:10.910 [SPEAKER_00]: And said, so you're not allowed to have girlfriends. 04:10.990 --> 04:15.235 [SPEAKER_00]: I said, in Islam, we are forbidden for a reason. 04:16.970 --> 04:18.974 [SPEAKER_00]: So, but if I want to, I can, I just don't. 04:20.538 --> 04:24.827 [SPEAKER_00]: Because I have a higher belief in values, and I'd like to keep it that way. 04:25.809 --> 04:26.551 [SPEAKER_00]: And they laughed at me. 04:28.074 --> 04:31.120 [SPEAKER_00]: In the end, I found that they actually respected me while hating me. 04:33.245 --> 04:34.708 [SPEAKER_00]: When you stand for something, 04:35.954 --> 04:48.909 [SPEAKER_00]: When you have a solid foundation, when you have a standard that you live by and others don't, the others just following anything, any trend, but you have a standard, even your enemy respect to. 04:50.551 --> 04:53.875 [SPEAKER_00]: I had non-Muslim friends and some of them really respected me. 04:55.958 --> 05:04.628 [SPEAKER_00]: But one thing that kept me steadfast, my brother and sister is my father teaching me and he drilled into me, that Allah will never leave me alone. 05:06.481 --> 05:07.022 [SPEAKER_00]: were loving. 05:08.083 --> 05:15.612 [SPEAKER_00]: As young as 13, 14, that was carved into my heart. 05:16.853 --> 05:17.634 [SPEAKER_00]: He will never leave me. 05:18.655 --> 05:20.497 [SPEAKER_00]: No matter what, I've got a loss of朋友 with that. 05:22.059 --> 05:24.422 [SPEAKER_00]: But the condition is that I have to be close to a lot too. 05:25.123 --> 05:28.687 [SPEAKER_00]: If he's near me, but I keep running away, I'm not going to have him near him. 05:28.707 --> 05:29.788 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to feel his nearness. 05:30.289 --> 05:31.510 [SPEAKER_00]: So it's a two way thing. 05:32.654 --> 05:38.283 [SPEAKER_00]: If I continue to put out my arms to you extending my help, but you run away from them, how are you going to get help? 05:39.304 --> 05:43.430 [SPEAKER_00]: But if you extend your arm to me, suddenly there's a bond, there's a connection. 05:44.472 --> 05:50.962 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is always extending His help to us, and He tells us I am always near to the Muslim and to the non-Muslim. 05:51.422 --> 05:56.109 [SPEAKER_00]: He is near to every near to the end that's inside the ground, in the hole in the ground. 05:57.532 --> 05:58.493 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is near. 05:59.755 --> 06:06.966 [SPEAKER_00]: But there's a difference between those who extend their hands to Allah and want to share that connection and those who are ignoring Him. 06:07.887 --> 06:15.519 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah stays near until your last breath, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting. 06:15.539 --> 06:22.269 [SPEAKER_00]: Even to the biggest, the worst people on earth, Allah gives them respite to the last breath. 06:24.993 --> 06:27.096 [SPEAKER_00]: And when the last breath comes, there's no more time. 06:29.084 --> 06:57.707 [SPEAKER_00]: My brothers and sisters, whether you experience bullying or hate, people conspiring against you, you experience accusations from people, sadness or sickness, feeling of loss, or you feel lost and confused in life, financial, or physical hardships, grief or loss of lives, relationship breakups or family abuse or hurt from them, because family can hurt you the most, 06:58.818 --> 07:22.902 [SPEAKER_00]: Or whether it's a celebration of an achievement, or happy times, peace, love, brotherhood, or success, a lot is always there with you, Allah says in the Qur'an, 07:23.624 --> 07:50.779 [SPEAKER_00]: Qujibu d'A'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a'u'a 07:51.215 --> 07:58.324 [SPEAKER_00]: When my servants ask you about me, indeed, I am quite near. 07:58.364 --> 08:13.002 [SPEAKER_00]: I hear and respond to each single supplication, each single prayer, each single call of the caller, whenever he or she calls to me. 08:14.424 --> 08:20.091 [SPEAKER_00]: So let them respond to me, let them respond to my call, 08:20.847 --> 08:40.773 [SPEAKER_00]: and believe in me, put their trust in me, that they may be guided, they may be guided to the best of what they're yearned for, to the best of what they're searching for, to the best of what they're requesting, so they may be guided out of the predicament therein and find the good that they're looking for. 08:42.015 --> 08:48.964 [SPEAKER_00]: My brothers and sisters, this particular verse of the Quran, when you read it in the Quran, it appears between two big verses, 08:49.973 --> 08:52.277 [SPEAKER_00]: Does anyone know what these two big verses talk about? 08:52.958 --> 08:54.020 [SPEAKER_00]: It's in Sordat al-Bakara? 08:56.163 --> 08:57.205 [SPEAKER_00]: There's a verse that talks about it. 08:57.345 --> 08:58.888 [SPEAKER_00]: It seems like it's totally different topic. 08:59.028 --> 09:01.692 [SPEAKER_00]: Then it goes into this verse and it goes back to the same topic. 09:01.712 --> 09:03.135 [SPEAKER_00]: Does anyone know which topic it's about? 09:03.976 --> 09:11.188 [SPEAKER_00]: Starts with an R. Not ribe, Ramadan, fasting, Ramadan. 09:12.535 --> 09:30.848 [SPEAKER_00]: The reason the scholars say that Allah is found out that Allah placed this verse straight after talking about fasting Ramadan is because among the closest you are to Allah is when you are worshiping Allah and among the best types of worship is when you are restricting your food and your pleasures for 30 days. 09:30.828 --> 09:43.104 [SPEAKER_00]: fasting for the sake of Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'ala, then Allah says, and if my servants ask you, and when my servants ask you about me, tell them about me, I am always definitely close. 09:45.848 --> 09:49.713 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is closer to you when you are in more pain. 09:49.773 --> 09:53.178 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is closer to you when you are in more hurt. 09:54.219 --> 09:57.223 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is closer to you, the more you suffer, actually. 09:59.903 --> 10:19.153 [SPEAKER_00]: So when you're fasting and going through that suppression of your desires and you have that tiredness and exhaustion, yet you are striving, making Jehaid against your desires, a lot tells us I'm always close, which signifies everything else in your life. 10:19.173 --> 10:26.164 [SPEAKER_00]: I want you to think about anything else in your life that is painful, Yani, we cannot survive without food and drink. 10:29.570 --> 10:41.142 [SPEAKER_00]: Yet, in a time when given, when we're giving it up just for a few hours in the day, Allah tells us, I am close, meaning any time you suffer. 10:43.705 --> 10:51.954 [SPEAKER_00]: Any time you go through tragedy, remember I'm near, you're not alone, or celebrations. 10:53.095 --> 10:57.720 [SPEAKER_00]: And look at this verse, when you read it even more carefully, listen to it. 10:58.747 --> 11:15.686 [SPEAKER_00]: What either say al-Qaiba, D, this, an elongation of the word, and sometimes a lot says Aiba, D, a shortening of the last letter, D. And in this one, he says Aiba, D extends it. 11:17.127 --> 11:20.030 [SPEAKER_00]: Arabic is very precise, language. 11:21.011 --> 11:22.894 [SPEAKER_00]: Aiba, D gives two meanings. 11:24.896 --> 11:26.037 [SPEAKER_00]: The first meaning? 11:27.282 --> 11:32.029 [SPEAKER_00]: is a lot is calling out to those who are really wanting who are close to Him already, who believe in Him. 11:32.670 --> 11:40.041 [SPEAKER_00]: He calls them in a form of possessive noun, you are mine, you are close to me, special to me. 11:40.462 --> 11:47.532 [SPEAKER_00]: And the second meaning of extending the word, E, it means it's all encompassing everyone. 11:48.734 --> 11:54.943 [SPEAKER_00]: Everyone, anyone who asks about Allah, Muslim or non-Muslim, 11:56.543 --> 11:57.024 [SPEAKER_00]: anyone. 11:58.226 --> 11:59.588 [SPEAKER_00]: Because we are all servants of Allah. 12:02.412 --> 12:05.156 [SPEAKER_00]: So even the disbeliever, if you ask about Allah, Allah says, I'm near. 12:07.600 --> 12:11.746 [SPEAKER_00]: But he is even nearer to the believer because the believer is chosen to be nearer to Allah. 12:13.409 --> 12:20.880 [SPEAKER_00]: Then you find in the same verse Allah says, 12:23.223 --> 12:28.129 [SPEAKER_00]: to the caller, to our other respond, to the call of the caller. 12:29.771 --> 12:37.761 [SPEAKER_00]: In the Arabic language usually, the common sense will tell you that you would say, if they ask me for anything I will respond. 12:38.061 --> 12:44.029 [SPEAKER_00]: But in this verse, Allah says, I respond first to the call of the caller. 12:46.572 --> 12:49.315 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah answers you before you ask him. 12:50.965 --> 12:52.947 [SPEAKER_00]: Normally you should be asking, and then Allah gives you. 12:54.209 --> 12:58.073 [SPEAKER_00]: But Allah says, I will give you, when you ask. 12:58.874 --> 13:08.185 [SPEAKER_00]: This means the moment you intend, and you move, and just remember with your mouth, Allah is already responded before you finish the sentence. 13:12.290 --> 13:13.431 [SPEAKER_00]: That is how close Allah is. 13:15.554 --> 13:19.318 [SPEAKER_00]: Before you finish the sentence, Allah is already responded. 13:21.982 --> 13:25.046 [SPEAKER_00]: That is why in this Arabic language you have the scholars looked at it very carefully is it? 13:25.406 --> 13:27.148 [SPEAKER_00]: Ujibul, I respond. 13:28.670 --> 13:29.050 [SPEAKER_00]: For what? 13:30.051 --> 13:44.108 [SPEAKER_00]: Dawa, every single request, dawa, singular, no matter how small or big, you know, dawa is like saying namla, an ant. 13:45.893 --> 13:48.897 [SPEAKER_00]: Who cares about ant and ant crawling somewhere in the world? 13:49.779 --> 14:00.194 [SPEAKER_00]: Your dog can be as seems as insignificant to your anyone else as the crawling of some ant in some desert in the Sahara. 14:00.214 --> 14:01.796 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, are they ants in the Sahara? 14:01.816 --> 14:05.221 [SPEAKER_00]: They should be somewhere in the outback. 14:07.024 --> 14:11.530 [SPEAKER_00]: Your little dog, a small as an ant, a low respond to it. 14:14.716 --> 14:22.087 [SPEAKER_00]: But respond means that he will give you what is best for you because human beings don't know what is good for them and what is bad. 14:23.348 --> 14:24.230 [SPEAKER_00]: We don't know the future. 14:25.271 --> 14:28.095 [SPEAKER_00]: We might think this is good, but Allah knows it's not. 14:29.377 --> 14:30.399 [SPEAKER_00]: And so what do you do? 14:30.599 --> 14:37.028 [SPEAKER_00]: Since Allah promised that he will respond and when he knows that what you're asking for is not good for you. 14:38.543 --> 14:43.771 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is not going to let it go, you've got to find the solution because He made a promise and He doesn't go against His promise. 14:43.991 --> 14:47.917 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah says, in Allah, Allah, you're going to leave for Wada. 14:47.937 --> 14:50.801 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah never contradicts His promise. 14:53.264 --> 15:02.678 [SPEAKER_00]: So our messenger Muhammad ﷺ, he explains that is why we take the words of our Prophet ﷺ to explain further. 15:02.793 --> 15:07.298 [SPEAKER_00]: He says, whenever someone asks a law for anything, he will give it to them. 15:07.919 --> 15:10.722 [SPEAKER_00]: In one, I'll use the shodahadith in one of three ways. 15:11.723 --> 15:17.730 [SPEAKER_00]: Either he will give you exactly what you asked or prevent exactly what you asked to be prevented from. 15:18.851 --> 15:28.902 [SPEAKER_00]: Or if he sees that it's not going to be good for you, he will ward off something tragic in your life from you. 15:29.810 --> 15:35.977 [SPEAKER_00]: Or he will save it for you, for the hereafter, for your salvation. 15:39.141 --> 15:43.766 [SPEAKER_00]: Because we may ask Allah for something and later on find out, we shouldn't have. 15:45.468 --> 15:46.790 [SPEAKER_00]: Because we are emotional beings. 15:48.411 --> 15:57.522 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah says in the Quran, 15:58.430 --> 16:00.532 [SPEAKER_00]: in his supplication to God sometimes. 16:02.214 --> 16:23.475 [SPEAKER_00]: While they are in a state of pessimism and negativity, so for example, it might be angry, it might be emotional, it might be frustrated, it might be upset and we make a door out of emotion when a lie knows this is not good and a lot says and his hasty wants it quickly, now, 16:24.822 --> 16:54.441 [SPEAKER_00]: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no 16:54.725 --> 16:57.688 [SPEAKER_00]: Meaning, only if something happens, this will happen. 16:58.449 --> 17:03.874 [SPEAKER_00]: But Allah says, either, dhan, not if they call upon me, when. 17:03.934 --> 17:06.116 [SPEAKER_00]: What does that mean? 17:06.557 --> 17:07.898 [SPEAKER_00]: Either means a lot. 17:09.600 --> 17:17.408 [SPEAKER_00]: No matter how many times you call, how many of you, nothing will affect the kingdom of Allah from responding to each and every single one of you. 17:17.428 --> 17:24.495 [SPEAKER_00]: The Prophet sallallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaallahu alaall 17:24.931 --> 17:30.256 [SPEAKER_00]: It's in between the verse of the Qur'an, between Hadith and the Prophet, Hadith, Good See, Divine Hadith. 17:30.476 --> 17:54.837 [SPEAKER_00]: That Allah's grant the Isle says, Oh, my servants, if all of you, human beings, and all your genes, from beginning of creation to the end of creation of all time, each one of you asked me for something, the size of whatever, 17:55.357 --> 17:58.842 [SPEAKER_00]: without my kingdom diminishing even a drop. 18:03.669 --> 18:06.232 [SPEAKER_00]: So Allah's Fantahala responds to all. 18:08.195 --> 18:16.707 [SPEAKER_00]: And one more thing about that verse, Allah said, O Muhammad, and he's addressing the Prophet ﷺ, and when my servants ask you, 18:17.058 --> 18:20.522 [SPEAKER_00]: Because what happened, why did this verse, why was this verse revealed? 18:20.902 --> 18:23.725 [SPEAKER_00]: Like there's a context to it, there's a story behind it. 18:24.526 --> 18:28.350 [SPEAKER_00]: The companions of the Prophet peace be upon him, approached the messenger of Allah one day. 18:30.712 --> 18:44.787 [SPEAKER_00]: And they said, oh messenger of Allah, is Allah fire away so that when we call upon him, we should shout, 18:46.825 --> 18:50.933 [SPEAKER_00]: Or is he close so that when we call upon him, we should whisper. 18:56.564 --> 19:01.934 [SPEAKER_00]: The Prophet ﷺ said, he is close, so whisper. 19:03.998 --> 19:08.226 [SPEAKER_00]: And then this verse was revealed, and when my servants 19:08.527 --> 19:12.090 [SPEAKER_00]: Ask you about me, I am always close. 19:12.951 --> 19:16.655 [SPEAKER_00]: I will respond to the single tiny call of the call when they call upon me. 19:17.436 --> 19:18.757 [SPEAKER_00]: Then Allah brings the condition. 19:18.817 --> 19:34.112 [SPEAKER_00]: She says, if I respond to your call, Allah is saying, shouldn't you respond to my call, Allah says, so respond to my call, complete the puzzle, complete the connection, 19:35.172 --> 19:42.821 [SPEAKER_00]: Meaning, respond to my words, believe in me, secure your faith in me, put your trust in me, obey me. 19:43.502 --> 19:44.403 [SPEAKER_00]: Why obey Allah? 19:45.004 --> 19:46.746 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah doesn't need us to obey him. 19:47.627 --> 19:50.250 [SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't need anybody to obey him, Subhanahu Wa'Taali. 19:50.270 --> 19:51.011 [SPEAKER_00]: It's nothing out of it. 19:51.111 --> 19:51.852 [SPEAKER_00]: He created us. 19:51.892 --> 19:52.593 [SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't need us. 19:53.294 --> 19:59.501 [SPEAKER_00]: We need him, but Allah wants you to connect to that which is best for you because Allah, that's who he is. 20:00.382 --> 20:02.985 [SPEAKER_00]: He is the merciful, the loving, the caring. 20:03.370 --> 20:06.134 [SPEAKER_00]: It is asked to turn away from Allah doesn't turn from us. 20:06.715 --> 20:09.158 [SPEAKER_00]: It is us who walk away my brothers and sisters. 20:10.300 --> 20:11.602 [SPEAKER_00]: It is not Allah who walks away. 20:11.622 --> 20:12.844 [SPEAKER_00]: We are the ones who walk away. 20:12.864 --> 20:15.067 [SPEAKER_00]: The Prophet ﷺ told us. 20:16.849 --> 20:32.432 [SPEAKER_00]: Again, in Hadith Qutsi, which Allah revealed, He said, 20:34.673 --> 20:47.113 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, in Adaitani, Mashiyan Adaitogaharwala, if you come to me walking at a walking pace, obviously this is a metaphor, I will come to you pacing fast. 20:48.295 --> 20:50.839 [SPEAKER_00]: And if you come pacing fast to me, I will come to you running. 20:53.183 --> 20:55.146 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah wants us more than what we want him. 20:56.290 --> 20:58.894 [SPEAKER_00]: But Allah knows what He created and He knows. 20:59.534 --> 21:05.362 [SPEAKER_00]: We are sometimes impatient, sometimes forgetful, sometimes out desires take over, sometimes sinful. 21:06.364 --> 21:19.902 [SPEAKER_00]: O holy Al-Insan al-Dhaifah, Allah says, the human being was created naturally weak, meaning they're full of emotions and desires, and they're always struggling with it, and that is why Allah rewards us. 21:20.084 --> 21:23.948 [SPEAKER_00]: for every one good deed that we do, minimum tenfold, in multiple light by ten. 21:24.508 --> 21:27.451 [SPEAKER_00]: Up to 70, up to 700, but when we do a bad video, only counted as one. 21:28.612 --> 21:32.016 [SPEAKER_00]: So I'll light balance everything out, is the Justin Fee. 21:32.036 --> 21:32.697 [SPEAKER_00]: And he forgives. 21:34.538 --> 21:38.302 [SPEAKER_00]: And he is the only one who will not judge you on your past. 21:39.303 --> 21:43.567 [SPEAKER_00]: If you have sincerely returned in your repentance, and he will open doors for you. 21:46.390 --> 21:48.252 [SPEAKER_00]: Even if you're repentant a thousand times, 21:49.447 --> 21:54.152 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah says in the Qur'an, in Allah your Hebbu tawabin, where your Hebbu mutatahirin, Allah loves. 21:55.193 --> 21:57.716 [SPEAKER_00]: Those always want to return to Him, again and again and again. 21:57.956 --> 21:59.698 [SPEAKER_00]: And He loves those who love to purify themselves. 22:00.059 --> 22:07.807 [SPEAKER_00]: Purify themselves doesn't just mean physically, but also mean mentally, spiritually, in your conduct and character. 22:07.827 --> 22:15.495 [SPEAKER_00]: You may have done things that are considered dirty, and you want to clean yourself from the dirty acts and words and past. 22:15.515 --> 22:17.918 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah says He loves those who want to purify themselves. 22:19.400 --> 22:20.642 [SPEAKER_00]: So this is how we get close. 22:22.805 --> 22:48.580 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah says in the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, In the Qur'an, 22:49.252 --> 23:01.926 [SPEAKER_00]: We have created men, and we know the promptings, the promptings, the little beats, the little tiny movements of his own heart. 23:03.367 --> 23:08.293 [SPEAKER_00]: And we are nearer to him than even his own Jaguar Vain. 23:11.256 --> 23:12.277 [SPEAKER_00]: Why the Jaguar Vain? 23:12.898 --> 23:17.723 [SPEAKER_00]: The Jaguar Vain is the center of the entire body's blood flow. 23:17.922 --> 23:27.720 [SPEAKER_00]: the central part, and the strongest pressure is here, and the most abundant of blood is right there, and it connects your head to the rest of your body. 23:30.064 --> 23:36.456 [SPEAKER_00]: Most of who you are is right there, and a loss of Hanna Watha alas as I'm closer to you, than even that. 23:38.240 --> 23:39.542 [SPEAKER_00]: Meaning Allah knows, 23:40.889 --> 23:48.177 [SPEAKER_00]: your ups and downs, your feelings and emotions, your inner most deepest pain and desires. 23:49.318 --> 24:08.398 [SPEAKER_00]: He knows it just like your blood flow, increases when you increase activity and when it rests, when you sit down, and when you're anxious, and when you're happy, and when you're heart beats, and when it stops, and how he has closer to you than that, meaning he has closer to you in his power, his knowledge, his nearness, 24:08.885 --> 24:10.927 [SPEAKER_00]: doesn't mean he's inside your jaguar veins. 24:12.409 --> 24:19.796 [SPEAKER_00]: That is why when we say, how is Allah so far away yet so close at the same time? 24:23.280 --> 24:29.726 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is so close yet so high and he is so high yet so close. 24:31.048 --> 24:35.432 [SPEAKER_00]: Always say, ye'a, kari, bin, fi'aul al-Wir. 24:36.053 --> 24:45.865 [SPEAKER_00]: O the close one and near one while he is the most high, and O the most high while he is the most near. 24:46.906 --> 24:48.208 [SPEAKER_00]: He is the omniscient. 24:49.630 --> 24:56.138 [SPEAKER_00]: He has knowledge and power of every single thing, far and wide, close and small. 24:57.619 --> 25:00.643 [SPEAKER_00]: How is Allah so far yet so close? 25:01.197 --> 25:13.673 [SPEAKER_00]: The answer, my brothers and sisters, is this Allah tells us and Allah put an an, lacer camith, line, shay'i, wa wa samyam al-Bal-Sine. 25:16.377 --> 25:20.102 [SPEAKER_00]: Not in the universe, nothing in the universe is like him. 25:21.123 --> 25:22.825 [SPEAKER_00]: Nothing in the universe is like him. 25:22.865 --> 25:30.495 [SPEAKER_00]: Yet he is the all-hearing, the all-seeing. 25:31.336 --> 25:33.539 [SPEAKER_00]: Nothing is like His likeness. 25:35.421 --> 25:36.483 [SPEAKER_00]: Let alone Himself. 25:38.165 --> 25:55.708 [SPEAKER_00]: Even if there were an imagined likeness to a law that you perceive or you imagine in your mind, nothing of it would be even minutely compared to the likeness of Allah, not to speak of being like Him, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. 25:56.790 --> 26:00.094 [SPEAKER_00]: Yet at one in the same time, he is hearing everybody 26:00.192 --> 26:02.840 [SPEAKER_00]: and seeing everything in the universe. 26:03.422 --> 26:09.640 [SPEAKER_00]: Brothers and sisters, physicists and astronomers, let's talk on a human level. 26:10.262 --> 26:12.970 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk on just the creation around us. 26:13.034 --> 26:19.000 [SPEAKER_00]: That's why I chose the verse of the Quran and sought the Rahman to recite to the insultant in the Magri prayer. 26:19.341 --> 26:28.090 [SPEAKER_00]: We have a tremendous chapter in the Quran called sought the Rahman, in which Allah tells us about all his creation and their extraordinary creation. 26:28.510 --> 26:32.474 [SPEAKER_00]: Because through Allah's creation, you know it's Creator. 26:34.697 --> 26:36.839 [SPEAKER_00]: Science is fascinating to me since I was a child. 26:38.040 --> 26:39.902 [SPEAKER_00]: And it became more fascinating. 26:40.270 --> 26:52.549 [SPEAKER_00]: When I looked at science, not just as an observer but also as with the question, how magnificent is its designer? 26:54.071 --> 27:01.082 [SPEAKER_00]: Everything you study in the world of natural world around you brings you to all about its creator. 27:02.864 --> 27:04.607 [SPEAKER_00]: So, physicists and astronomers, 27:05.718 --> 27:20.821 [SPEAKER_00]: found the most awe-inspiring, the most debilitating and jaw-dropping factual reality is the mind blowing and inconceivable sheer size and vastness of this universe. 27:22.163 --> 27:26.089 [SPEAKER_00]: It's incomprehensible how big this universe is 27:27.402 --> 27:35.438 [SPEAKER_00]: The universe is expanding faster than the speed of light, and it is billions of billions of light years old. 27:37.182 --> 27:42.593 [SPEAKER_00]: Ever since it's been expanding faster than the speed of light, my brothers and sisters. 27:45.830 --> 27:55.063 [SPEAKER_00]: and equally astounding, astounded by the infinite tiny subatomic particles within our own body and things that are around us. 27:55.904 --> 28:12.107 [SPEAKER_00]: They are so infinitely small, and the universe is so infinitely huge, so infinitely small, so infinitely huge, and yet nothing in it can be compared. 28:14.922 --> 28:20.047 [SPEAKER_00]: to the vastness, power and knowledge of Allah. 28:21.028 --> 28:23.151 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that it can be compared to Allah's panorotide. 28:25.153 --> 28:31.699 [SPEAKER_00]: It makes sense that Allah is not inside of it, he is beyond it, he is outside of his creation. 28:32.240 --> 28:39.968 [SPEAKER_00]: Because God, the Creator, cannot be reliant and dependent on the physical laws which He created to survive. 28:40.673 --> 28:44.718 [SPEAKER_00]: That is not a God, that is why it is flawed and wrong. 28:45.960 --> 28:55.391 [SPEAKER_00]: The question cancels itself out when you ask about evidence of God's creation through natural experimentation. 28:57.694 --> 29:03.261 [SPEAKER_00]: The moment you try to do that or claim to have it, you have already canceled out God. 29:04.543 --> 29:07.947 [SPEAKER_00]: Because if we were to experiment through nature, 29:08.281 --> 29:14.087 [SPEAKER_00]: To physically prove God, that means God is automatically part of the creation and nature. 29:14.868 --> 29:15.649 [SPEAKER_00]: How can he be God then? 29:16.670 --> 29:17.751 [SPEAKER_00]: Is the creator of the nature? 29:19.533 --> 29:25.319 [SPEAKER_00]: The physical laws which he created, he cannot be bound by the same laws. 29:29.264 --> 29:31.386 [SPEAKER_00]: And physical laws don't have an intelligence of their own. 29:32.986 --> 29:52.362 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah says, 29:52.612 --> 30:13.194 [SPEAKER_00]: In Surat Al-Mulq, Surah number 67 verse 3, Allah brings us an example and a deep wisdom. 30:13.234 --> 30:18.079 [SPEAKER_00]: He says, He who created the seven heavens one upon another. 30:18.920 --> 30:25.687 [SPEAKER_00]: We don't know what that exactly means, but he created layers of heavens, of space and skies. 30:26.428 --> 30:36.598 [SPEAKER_00]: You will see no incongruity, no clash in the merciful, the merciful, one-ness creation. 30:37.499 --> 30:38.800 [SPEAKER_00]: Turn your vision again. 30:39.541 --> 30:40.862 [SPEAKER_00]: Can you see any flaw? 30:41.583 --> 30:43.885 [SPEAKER_00]: Then turn your vision again and then again. 30:43.925 --> 30:48.910 [SPEAKER_00]: In the end, your vision will come back to you. 30:49.430 --> 30:51.432 [SPEAKER_00]: out and be wielded. 30:52.833 --> 30:56.517 [SPEAKER_00]: You look at the space, it returns back one out and be wielded. 30:58.859 --> 31:12.572 [SPEAKER_00]: Take for instance the new discovery which scientists and astronomers cannot understand, called the quantum world, has anyone held a herd of the quantum world? 31:16.456 --> 31:18.458 [SPEAKER_00]: In the quantum world which 31:18.826 --> 31:29.399 [SPEAKER_00]: Explain, yet it exists, something that exists, but nobody can explain, and it's not even God, it's still a creation. 31:31.242 --> 31:36.889 [SPEAKER_00]: There is within the quantum world something called quantum entanglement, if you ever have a quantum entanglement. 31:38.811 --> 31:47.162 [SPEAKER_00]: In simple words, quantum entanglement is a phenomena, meaning something no one can explain. 31:47.733 --> 32:12.930 [SPEAKER_00]: two sub-automic particles, billions of light years distance apart, somewhere in the universe billions of light years away, and the other sub-automic particle is here on Earth for example, and the other one is beyond the Milky Way and all the galaxies, even while these billions of light years of distance between these two particles, 32:14.885 --> 32:20.513 [SPEAKER_00]: They influence each other's actions simultaneously at the same time. 32:22.316 --> 32:24.880 [SPEAKER_00]: They're communicating and connected. 32:26.482 --> 32:32.932 [SPEAKER_00]: And if one moves in a particular way, billions of light years away, the one that's with you here moves exactly at the same time. 32:34.595 --> 32:36.217 [SPEAKER_00]: Constant communication and connection. 32:36.437 --> 32:38.360 [SPEAKER_00]: How nobody knows. 32:40.804 --> 32:43.508 [SPEAKER_00]: Yet, it's real. 32:44.264 --> 32:50.153 [SPEAKER_00]: It's real, yet we cannot explain it through the physical world. 32:51.835 --> 32:55.561 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, we could experiment, but we cannot explain it. 32:55.581 --> 33:05.455 [SPEAKER_00]: So if we have an example that Allah has alluded us to, you might be thinking, what's quantum world got to do with a lot telling us about it? 33:05.475 --> 33:05.956 [SPEAKER_00]: It's in the Quran. 33:06.938 --> 33:11.284 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah says, Sanuri, Him, Aya, Tuna, Fila, Falk. 33:12.277 --> 33:17.125 [SPEAKER_00]: We are going to continue in the future to show them how our science and the horizons. 33:19.408 --> 33:25.197 [SPEAKER_00]: We're here and for see him and inside their own selves, our own bodies will discover more and more about it. 33:27.641 --> 33:34.011 [SPEAKER_00]: Until they are convinced and know that Allah is true. 33:36.235 --> 33:37.677 [SPEAKER_00]: But it depends how you're going to look at it. 33:39.766 --> 33:46.514 [SPEAKER_00]: I look at this table and say amazing design and purpose, but I also think about who made it and how intelligent that person is. 33:48.156 --> 33:49.558 [SPEAKER_00]: It's too ways to think about things. 33:51.821 --> 34:00.611 [SPEAKER_00]: It would be very lost and delusional to just focus on the table without thinking about its maker, at its resources or anything like that. 34:01.412 --> 34:02.854 [SPEAKER_00]: A lot is the source of everything. 34:04.673 --> 34:16.724 [SPEAKER_00]: So when we look at quantum world, and we see how two subatomic matters that are billions of light years apart, communicate and are connected simultaneously, and we cannot explain it. 34:18.906 --> 34:21.728 [SPEAKER_00]: Why then would it be difficult for anybody to accept? 34:22.489 --> 34:34.039 [SPEAKER_00]: But Allah, the creator of this entire phenomena, is close to your while, his far, and his far while, his close. 34:34.458 --> 34:37.042 [SPEAKER_00]: lacerca, mithlihe, shape. 34:37.663 --> 34:39.425 [SPEAKER_00]: There is nothing like his likeness. 34:40.227 --> 34:42.290 [SPEAKER_00]: Yet he sees all things in here all things. 34:45.775 --> 34:53.306 [SPEAKER_00]: The closest to your emotions and pain in this life is who, most likely who is it. 34:55.629 --> 35:04.262 [SPEAKER_00]: Who in this world, in the people that you know, are most likely the closest to understand 35:04.900 --> 35:14.212 [SPEAKER_00]: Now, mother, generally speaking, yes, there is always a small percentage of bad mothers, abusive mothers. 35:14.872 --> 35:28.109 [SPEAKER_00]: But we're not talking about the small percentage we are talking about the normal natural way of how most people find mothers, know their children's emotions and pain more than anyone else, even more than the fathers. 35:28.729 --> 35:31.633 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah has given them that natural abilities upon Allah. 35:32.879 --> 35:42.833 [SPEAKER_00]: Even when their teenagers and girls reach puberty, they are more in tune with emotional intelligence, speech and connection, empathy and feelings way before boys. 35:46.358 --> 35:50.103 [SPEAKER_00]: The mother is the closest thing to your emotions and pain that understands. 35:51.926 --> 35:56.893 [SPEAKER_00]: Yet, a mother still doesn't know all your emotional and pains. 35:57.253 --> 35:57.814 [SPEAKER_00]: Isn't that correct? 35:59.677 --> 36:02.160 [SPEAKER_00]: Did you know that in Islam we believe, 36:02.697 --> 36:15.571 [SPEAKER_00]: As the Qur'an told us and as our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ told us that Allah knows you and closer to you, to your feelings and your pain more than your own mother. 36:17.513 --> 36:22.839 [SPEAKER_00]: He is closer to you than your mother, more merciful to you than your mother. 36:23.640 --> 36:30.628 [SPEAKER_00]: But the way we understand mercy, different story, the way you and I interpret things is 36:31.823 --> 36:32.684 [SPEAKER_00]: door and you know. 36:34.846 --> 36:42.574 [SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes, in the biggest pain in front of me, which I may perceive, is the worst thing in it is my mercy. 36:44.016 --> 36:44.516 [SPEAKER_00]: We never know. 36:46.298 --> 36:57.510 [SPEAKER_00]: We've seen on TED Talk, people who suffered a lot in life, and how they talk about this suffering brought mercy about, 36:59.414 --> 37:02.118 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah has always blessedings hidden in disguise. 37:04.701 --> 37:08.186 [SPEAKER_00]: Waqulliq al-Insan Wa'ajulah Allah says, yet man was created hasty. 37:09.467 --> 37:11.109 [SPEAKER_00]: So generally your mother is the closest. 37:12.071 --> 37:15.135 [SPEAKER_00]: Now tell your short story, the Hadith is insaheb waqadi. 37:17.217 --> 37:20.482 [SPEAKER_00]: But the Prophet ﷺ was one sitting with his companions. 37:22.745 --> 37:27.531 [SPEAKER_00]: And there was a battle that had broken out between them and enemies. 37:27.882 --> 37:32.626 [SPEAKER_00]: who were hostile to the Muslims, so a war broke out or a battle broke out. 37:32.646 --> 37:55.847 [SPEAKER_00]: The Muslims were victorious, and it was the nature of all wars and battles in those days where it was the law of the jungle, that there are spoils of war, meaning that people, the civilians or people who were in the army such as children and women, in Islam it's forbidden to kill them or to harm them. 37:56.671 --> 38:00.615 [SPEAKER_00]: And it's forbidden to kill or harm any soldier who lays his weapon down. 38:01.756 --> 38:05.240 [SPEAKER_00]: And it's forbidden to continue battles in war when the enemy wants a truce. 38:06.101 --> 38:10.585 [SPEAKER_00]: But the prophet peace be upon him is to always say, never wish to meet the enemy. 38:10.625 --> 38:11.647 [SPEAKER_00]: Don't wish for war. 38:12.047 --> 38:15.911 [SPEAKER_00]: Don't wish to see the enemy and fight them. 38:15.931 --> 38:19.074 [SPEAKER_00]: Latha Dhamma no liqat al-Aduh, don't wish to meet the enemy. 38:19.114 --> 38:20.716 [SPEAKER_00]: Don't have that mentality. 38:20.736 --> 38:25.581 [SPEAKER_00]: But he said, if the enemy forces you to it, then stand firm and strong. 38:26.438 --> 38:28.641 [SPEAKER_00]: So anyway, I wanted to clear that up a little bit. 38:29.202 --> 38:39.015 [SPEAKER_00]: In those days, it was necessary to take prisoners, even children and women otherwise, they would become public property because that's how universal laws were. 38:40.177 --> 38:42.480 [SPEAKER_00]: Not like today in some parts of the world. 38:43.181 --> 38:48.548 [SPEAKER_00]: We have, for example, treaties and Geneva conventions and things like that, they didn't exist at that time. 38:48.848 --> 38:59.760 [SPEAKER_00]: So, instead of letting those prisoners and those people who are now left from the enemy's line, free to run around, they would become public property, everyone will harm them. 38:59.780 --> 39:01.642 [SPEAKER_00]: Instead, the Muslims took them in with conditions. 39:01.943 --> 39:12.094 [SPEAKER_00]: They must look after them, feed them, close them from what they closed themselves, feed them from what they feed themselves, treat them with goodness, and even offer them to learn about Islam but never force them to convert. 39:12.975 --> 39:17.640 [SPEAKER_00]: And there are so many other things that Islam did for these types of prisoners, too. 39:17.620 --> 39:26.251 [SPEAKER_00]: Instead of letting them go, the best thing was, keep them and look after them until Allah finds a way out for Him and so on. 39:26.331 --> 39:33.319 [SPEAKER_00]: Among those who were captives of war was a mother from the enemy line. 39:33.360 --> 39:43.812 [SPEAKER_00]: This mother, she seemed like she had a baby, so she was grabbing any baby to breastfeed the baby. 39:44.013 --> 39:45.855 [SPEAKER_00]: It looks like the milk had overflowed. 39:47.101 --> 39:52.971 [SPEAKER_00]: And while she's breastfeeding the babies, suddenly she saw her own baby. 39:54.613 --> 39:56.516 [SPEAKER_00]: So she rushed to her baby and grabbed them. 39:56.536 --> 40:04.710 [SPEAKER_00]: You understand how a mother would grab its baby after she thought it was dead or lost with such empathy and feelings and intense emotion. 40:04.970 --> 40:12.923 [SPEAKER_00]: She grabbed her baby and started feeding it feeding while crying and just thinking God that her baby is alive and she would give her life for it. 40:13.578 --> 40:32.958 [SPEAKER_00]: The Prophet peace be upon him saw this with his companions and he turned to his companions and said, would you ever give a second thought to think, would you ever think that this mother would ever throw her baby into a fire? 40:34.800 --> 40:36.221 [SPEAKER_00]: They said, no, you have to sort of lie, never. 40:36.261 --> 40:42.808 [SPEAKER_00]: This mother throw her by me, no way, look at her. 40:44.425 --> 40:47.430 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is closer to His servants than this mother to her baby. 40:52.717 --> 41:06.558 [SPEAKER_00]: So whoever deserves the fire in the hereafter, Allah's uponohadala knows through His justice, but His mercy and His forgiveness is far more than even the mother to her child in given circumstances. 41:07.660 --> 41:10.184 [SPEAKER_00]: As I told you, there are even mothers who threw their babies away. 41:11.726 --> 41:13.048 [SPEAKER_00]: Isn't that correct? 41:13.163 --> 41:17.328 [SPEAKER_00]: Parents who just threw their babies away, for ever reasons, but some of them just don't want them. 41:18.449 --> 41:20.512 [SPEAKER_00]: So they can be nasty if you're a lock and never be nasty. 41:21.513 --> 41:26.479 [SPEAKER_00]: And they weaken. 41:26.499 --> 41:42.799 [SPEAKER_00]: My brothers and sisters, a lot tells us in the Quran, would he who created, not know what he has created, in Surat al-Mulq, 41:44.112 --> 41:48.357 [SPEAKER_00]: Does he who created not know what he has created? 41:49.098 --> 41:54.325 [SPEAKER_00]: Does he not know you and your heart and your inner inner, most inner desires and inner feelings? 41:55.386 --> 41:56.408 [SPEAKER_00]: He created you, he knows you. 41:57.429 --> 42:07.622 [SPEAKER_00]: Wahoo al-Latif al-Habir, when he is all subtle, he is all subtle, all aware of what? 42:08.210 --> 42:09.692 [SPEAKER_00]: And why, why subtle? 42:09.712 --> 42:11.435 [SPEAKER_00]: Why did Allah say Latif? 42:11.535 --> 42:11.715 [SPEAKER_00]: Why? 42:11.935 --> 42:12.937 [SPEAKER_00]: Why not say some other name? 42:13.257 --> 42:14.339 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is Allah leaf. 42:14.639 --> 42:15.901 [SPEAKER_00]: Why the all the way? 42:17.723 --> 42:18.084 [SPEAKER_00]: Kabir. 42:19.145 --> 42:19.806 [SPEAKER_00]: Why those names? 42:21.308 --> 42:22.530 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is telling us something here. 42:23.011 --> 42:28.398 [SPEAKER_00]: She says, as if to say Allah is saying, I created you. 42:29.600 --> 42:31.042 [SPEAKER_00]: You think I don't know everything about you. 42:31.963 --> 42:35.989 [SPEAKER_00]: You think I don't know your inner stuff that's happening inside of your whispers in your mind 42:38.045 --> 42:43.333 [SPEAKER_00]: I am a lot of saying, he is the subtle, the all-aware. 42:45.156 --> 42:45.677 [SPEAKER_00]: I be it. 42:45.697 --> 42:47.500 [SPEAKER_00]: You might know something, but you don't understand it. 42:48.181 --> 42:55.653 [SPEAKER_00]: A lot not only knows it, he understands it to the depth of its depth, its future, and its past, and everything which you cannot comprehend. 42:56.074 --> 43:05.689 [SPEAKER_00]: He knows you more than what you know yourself. 43:07.120 --> 43:08.041 [SPEAKER_00]: inconspicuous. 43:09.923 --> 43:11.866 [SPEAKER_00]: Imagine a very loud room. 43:13.368 --> 43:14.309 [SPEAKER_00]: Everyone's loud. 43:14.329 --> 43:22.719 [SPEAKER_00]: There's loud noise, there's music, there's imagine there's war, and there are missiles everywhere. 43:25.242 --> 43:32.571 [SPEAKER_00]: And a little tiny whisper. 43:34.340 --> 43:36.382 [SPEAKER_00]: is among all that sound. 43:37.243 --> 43:38.504 [SPEAKER_00]: Is it possible for you to hear that whisper? 43:39.986 --> 43:40.527 [SPEAKER_00]: Is it possible? 43:41.247 --> 43:45.732 [SPEAKER_00]: The little meowing of a tiny kid and while mishearers are falling and is it possible for you to hear that? 43:47.174 --> 43:53.701 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is subtle, which means that little whisper among all the noise, Allah knows it and he is it. 43:54.902 --> 44:02.170 [SPEAKER_00]: And he is subtle, which means not only does he look at you, he looks at feelings of yours, 44:02.791 --> 44:09.258 [SPEAKER_00]: which everybody else may not care about, but to Allah, it means a lot. 44:10.099 --> 44:13.843 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, sometimes you might feel someone might hurt you, right? 44:14.844 --> 44:16.346 [SPEAKER_00]: But you don't get too hurt by it. 44:16.806 --> 44:25.936 [SPEAKER_00]: Whereas another person, that same action done to them, it hurts them a lot, because some people are more sensitive than others. 44:27.738 --> 44:31.903 [SPEAKER_00]: Some people are more sensitive than other, 44:32.828 --> 44:43.798 [SPEAKER_00]: So you know, we have at school sometimes teenagers, if someone says a joke to her and other student, they come up and they say, come on man, it was nothing was just a joke. 44:43.918 --> 44:47.601 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but not to that person. 44:47.621 --> 44:52.125 [SPEAKER_00]: But if you were to say something else to those bullies, something else to dissomething else, I would hurt them. 44:52.706 --> 44:56.249 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is subtle, he looks at you individually. 44:58.031 --> 44:58.992 [SPEAKER_00]: What are your sensitivities? 45:00.093 --> 45:01.654 [SPEAKER_00]: They may be a small as a, 45:02.680 --> 45:07.265 [SPEAKER_00]: as a meowing of a kid and a man wore, but to a low he sees it and you notice it. 45:11.689 --> 45:20.258 [SPEAKER_00]: And Allah says, whatever you speak in secrecy or allowed, it is all the same to a low, he even knows the secrets that lie hidden in the chests of people. 45:20.278 --> 45:23.181 [SPEAKER_00]: You know where Allah says chest, why not heart? 45:25.924 --> 45:31.530 [SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes Allah says heart, sometimes it's chest, sometimes it's mind, why chest? 45:31.550 --> 45:32.451 [SPEAKER_00]: I'll tell you why. 45:33.865 --> 45:43.167 [SPEAKER_00]: Feelings, grudges, hurt, pain, confusion, it all lies outside of your heart in the chest area.
