[SPEAKER_00]: Have trust in Allah if you are indeed be deafers.
[SPEAKER_00]: We hear this phrase a lot, trust in Allah, have to walk along a loss of heaven and with heaven.
[SPEAKER_00]: But what does it mean?
[SPEAKER_00]: What are its implications in our lives?
[SPEAKER_00]: And what are the results of having it?
[SPEAKER_00]: This is what we'll discuss today shortly in Shā'Allah.
[SPEAKER_00]: Trust is something you give to someone, but to Waqul, in Allahus Subhanahu wa Ta'ala,
[SPEAKER_00]: capabilities to understand why.
[SPEAKER_00]: We trust a lot of Subhan who we're to A'la, without knowing the plan, without knowing.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, if you trust someone, you have reasons that you trust them.
[SPEAKER_00]: I trust this person, because we've done business in the past.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, when he's always been right with me and I trust this person, because I'm not malo.
[SPEAKER_00]: We trust a lot of Subhan who we're to A'la, unequivocally.
[SPEAKER_00]: Unequivocally, we trust him with everything.
[SPEAKER_00]: But what are its realities?
[SPEAKER_00]: What are its realities?
[SPEAKER_00]: Give you a couple of,
[SPEAKER_00]: examples in Sha'Allah Hutan.
[SPEAKER_00]: Because the world right now is crazy.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's crazy.
[SPEAKER_00]: Those of you who are looking what's going on around the world, we're not just talking about it because we're talking about globally, globally, the world is upside down.
[SPEAKER_00]: And it does not seem to be getting any better any time soon.
[SPEAKER_00]: So how do we reconcile this?
[SPEAKER_00]: We see the world is full of darkness.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's full of evil.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's full of oppression.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's full of difficulties.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's full of hardship.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's full of pirates.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's full of tyranny.
[SPEAKER_00]: How do we reconcile this with a just Lord?
[SPEAKER_00]: How do we reconcile this with a lost man and with an other?
[SPEAKER_00]: Who is our lotty?
[SPEAKER_00]: How do we reconcile the two?
[SPEAKER_00]: At the time of Musa, Laceram, there was a tyrant as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: One of the most famous of all time, Giroon, the Firoon.
[SPEAKER_00]: There have been many types of ferroes throughout history, but the Firoon referred to in the Quran, the ferro at the time of Musas was one of the worst tyrants that the world has ever known.
[SPEAKER_00]: So much so that Allah is repentant with either preserved him and promised that I would preserve you as a sign to the nations that come after you.
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, we know today, he still preserved these and these in a museum and Egypt, and he's traveling around the world, he's probably traveling to more countries than most of us.
[SPEAKER_00]: At his time,
[SPEAKER_00]: He had many Israeli embondaged in slavery, and they were being persecuted.
[SPEAKER_00]: And for generations, they had been making dua to Allah, Subhanahu Wa Ta'ana, to give them freedom, to send someone to them, to give them some escape, and there was a child born Na'ibusah.
[SPEAKER_00]: And when this child was young, it all had a dream that there would be one of these children alive right now that would grow up and overthrow him
[SPEAKER_00]: So what did he do in response?
[SPEAKER_00]: He ordered that all of the young sons of many Israel under a certain age be slaughtered.
[SPEAKER_00]: Kill all of them.
[SPEAKER_00]: This was the way of tyrants.
[SPEAKER_00]: They just get rid of their enemies.
[SPEAKER_00]: So all of these children were being slaughtered, left, right, and centrum.
[SPEAKER_00]: But Musa had to be saved.
[SPEAKER_00]: Musa had to be spared.
[SPEAKER_00]: So Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala sent an angel to Musa's mother,
[SPEAKER_00]: to Musa's mother and told her the plan to save Musa, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: The plan to save Musa was simple, take your child to infant, put him in a box, put that box in the river Nile and let it go.
[SPEAKER_00]: That was it.
[SPEAKER_00]: That was all of the plans she was given.
[SPEAKER_00]: She wasn't told anything else.
[SPEAKER_00]: She wasn't told the continuation that this is how it's going to go.
[SPEAKER_00]: No.
[SPEAKER_00]: Put him in the box or look a man did you to put him in a box, put him in the Nile river and let him go.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, the now river is not some little bubbling brooks like we have here in Texas.
[SPEAKER_00]: The now river is something akin to the Mississippi.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, it's not a river that's jumping to.
[SPEAKER_00]: I spent a couple of years in a flat right in front of the now river on a road known as Charli Kurnishanil in Cairo.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not, I never jumped in.
[SPEAKER_00]: I would say kids born and raised.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think you have to be born and raised in Egypt to jump in that river.
[SPEAKER_00]: But to place your child and if you're a parent, you can understand the complexity of this.
[SPEAKER_00]: I have to put it in a box.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know where he's going and just put him in the Nile River.
[SPEAKER_00]: But Moses' mother had to walk good to walk well in a loss of handover with Adam.
[SPEAKER_00]: She did not need to know the whole plan.
[SPEAKER_00]: She just knew that if Allah commanded her to do something, then she'd do it and Allah would take care of the rest of the plan.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, what happens?
[SPEAKER_00]: She puts him in the box.
[SPEAKER_00]: And where does this box end up?
[SPEAKER_00]: Usually in my talks, I ask for responses, but Juma, you can't speak.
[SPEAKER_00]: Where does this box go?
[SPEAKER_00]: This box arrives in Pharaoh's backyard.
[SPEAKER_00]: And now, most of his mother, even though she trusted in Allah, she also was a mother.
[SPEAKER_00]: She was a mother.
[SPEAKER_00]: So she sent her daughter to go and see where your brother goes.
[SPEAKER_00]: Go and look, go and report to me what happens to him.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right keep an eye on him.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a mother's love.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's unequivocal.
[SPEAKER_00]: The box goes to fit on the backyard.
[SPEAKER_00]: Can you imagine if we were in today's world with this modern technology, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: And Moose's sister sends a picture, a text message, or a snapchat, or whatever have you, to Moose's mother that, hey, look where this box went.
[SPEAKER_00]: This box went to the very backyard or the person whom you put him in the box to protect him from.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, imagine if that was a movie, our TV series going on.
[SPEAKER_00]: The box floats into Pharaoh's backyard.
[SPEAKER_00]: They show a big picture of his palace.
[SPEAKER_00]: And then Dan Dan will see you next week.
[SPEAKER_00]: All week long, we'll be like, oh, it's over.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, that's it.
[SPEAKER_00]: That boy is done.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's over.
[SPEAKER_00]: The game's over.
[SPEAKER_00]: He went to the very place.
[SPEAKER_00]: He was supposed to be protected from.
[SPEAKER_00]: Or if Moses's sister was able to tell her mother, this where maybe she would have been like, you know, this is not what I agree to.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, this plan is not working.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, no, no, no.
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't agree to send them to the very person who's trying to kill him.
[SPEAKER_00]: Allah doesn't need you to know the whole plan.
[SPEAKER_00]: He works in his own ways.
[SPEAKER_00]: Allah's Subhanahu wa Ta'ala works in ways that you and I are unable to comprehend.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is why he says to have to walk all in him.
[SPEAKER_00]: Trust him without understanding because you can't grasp it.
[SPEAKER_00]: We know the how that story goes.
[SPEAKER_00]: But on his found by who arse him.
[SPEAKER_00]: The wife of an own who held the Eman in her heart.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'll see a convinced fit on.
[SPEAKER_00]: She took this child and a lot gave her an immediate love for him, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: She took this child to fit on.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is also shows you this is a little side lesson for our brothers, is that your wife.
[SPEAKER_00]: For those of you who are married and if you've been married for more than five, ten years, you know this already.
[SPEAKER_00]: And if you don't, it will learn it now.
[SPEAKER_00]: And if you're not going to get married and you're going to get married, learn this now.
[SPEAKER_00]: Your wife has a superpower.
[SPEAKER_00]: She has a superpower.
[SPEAKER_00]: that power of persuasion when your wife really wants something.
[SPEAKER_00]: If she's been married to you five, 10, 15 years, she knows you well enough.
[SPEAKER_00]: She's going to get what she wants.
[SPEAKER_00]: One way or the other.
[SPEAKER_00]: I've learned it's easier, just a surrender earlier, surrender earlier in the battle which is easier, much easier for you.
[SPEAKER_00]: So fit on convinces to the power persuasion, for fit on to adapt his own destruction.
[SPEAKER_00]: Not only does he adapt his own destruction, they try to find a wet nurse for this child, because you couldn't go to the store and buy formula, it's just not the way it worked.
[SPEAKER_00]: You had to find someone to breastfeed this child.
[SPEAKER_00]: So they brought one way worse, and there's after another, after another, after another, after another, you intake from any of them.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the command of Allah Subhanahu ta'am.
[SPEAKER_00]: He wouldn't take for many of them, and most of his sisters watching this whole scenario, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: And they're getting very frustrated.
[SPEAKER_00]: So finally, she sees an opening, and she comes and says, look, can I give you a suggestion of a woman whom I can bring?
[SPEAKER_00]: And I can almost assure you that he will take from her.
[SPEAKER_00]: At that point, the child is dying, so they're like, you know, whatever, bring,
[SPEAKER_00]: she goes to get Musa's mother.
[SPEAKER_00]: She goes and gets his mother.
[SPEAKER_00]: His mother comes.
[SPEAKER_00]: Can you imagine probably her realization when she realizes where her son is?
[SPEAKER_00]: He's in the palace of her own.
[SPEAKER_00]: The very person who's trying to kill him, whom you sense it, he's in his house now and you're being commanded to come.
[SPEAKER_00]: So she goes and as soon as Musa sees his mother, of course he starts taking from her.
[SPEAKER_00]: and then what happens.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, Musa's mother is being paid because this was a job.
[SPEAKER_00]: She is being paid a salary from the royal palace.
[SPEAKER_00]: She is being paid a royal salary and Musa and her are put under royal guard.
[SPEAKER_00]: Look at the plan of a loss of an animal with the island.
[SPEAKER_00]: Where and her son are being paid and put under royal guard for his protection.
[SPEAKER_00]: So not only fit on a ducked his own destruction, he pays for it, he pays to protect it, he pays to raise it, and it's mother.
[SPEAKER_00]: And we know that Mosul eventually raised up, leave Egypt and then be spoken to a lost panuatala sent back with his brother Haroon, and they would become the reason for the destruction of his own, and the freedom of many is right.
[SPEAKER_00]: The plan of a lost panuatala does not need to make sense to you.
[SPEAKER_00]: It does not need to make sense to you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Allah knows, he understands, everything is power, everything is within his grasp.
[SPEAKER_00]: Everything is working out exactly as he has commanded and planned it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Our job as believers is to have to walk good, to trust him.
[SPEAKER_00]: The trust him, no matter what looks like, no matter how it looks like it's going, our command is to trust him.
[SPEAKER_00]: He never says to understand me, you have to understand my plan, you have to comprehend it, no, just trust me.
[SPEAKER_00]: I got this.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the plan of Allah, Subhanahu Wata'an.
[SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't need to make sense to you.
[SPEAKER_00]: There was once at the time of the woo, the woman, a woman, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's from these really at the time of the woo, there was a woman.
[SPEAKER_00]: She was a poor woman and she lived her life by sewing things and knitting and she would sew and knit things and take them to the market and sell them and from that money she would then buy enough food for her and her children for that day.
[SPEAKER_00]: She was a widow and enough material to knit something for the next day and that's how she
[SPEAKER_00]: One day she was on the way to the market and a bird came and snatched up her knitting.
[SPEAKER_00]: Snatched up that which she had to make for the next day and took off with it.
[SPEAKER_00]: And now she has nothing to feed her children and days go by and her children are starving and she's starving.
[SPEAKER_00]: This bird is acting upon what?
[SPEAKER_00]: From a loss of heaven without her birds, no have a free will.
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's do what a lost command of them to do.
[SPEAKER_00]: So she goes into the court of the wood at a sin of.
[SPEAKER_00]: She says, well, first she asked a question.
[SPEAKER_00]: She says, is Allah just, or is Allah unjust to us?
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a very strange question, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: So he asked why do you ask this question.
[SPEAKER_00]: Someone has to get to a point.
[SPEAKER_00]: I know I do, I do counseling every single day.
[SPEAKER_00]: There has to be one people asked certain questions like this.
[SPEAKER_00]: You need to know the why.
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a reason why this person's asked this question.
[SPEAKER_00]: What has happened to bring you to this point?
[SPEAKER_00]: So she explains herself, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: She explains herself on what happened.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I have nothing now.
[SPEAKER_00]: My children are starving.
[SPEAKER_00]: Is there a lot just or is there a lot just?
[SPEAKER_00]: As the all of this is happening, some men come in and they're carrying with them big bags of gold.
[SPEAKER_00]: And they come in a big commotion because, you know, they got these men big bags of gold.
[SPEAKER_00]: They're not from here.
[SPEAKER_00]: And they come and just throw it at the feet of the dude.
[SPEAKER_00]: They say them.
[SPEAKER_00]: And they say, this is sadaqa for Allah.
[SPEAKER_00]: For whomever you deem it to be a necessary.
[SPEAKER_00]: whomever you will for it.
[SPEAKER_00]: So dude says, oh no second, what is this story now?
[SPEAKER_00]: They say, we are merchants who travel by sea and we were on our way from our last trip and it was successful.
[SPEAKER_00]: But our sail broke on our ship and we could not navigate the waters and we would got caught in a storm and we had no way to escape it.
[SPEAKER_00]: And we thought we were going to die.
[SPEAKER_00]: So we asked Allah Subhanu without a we were making dua for Allah if He would save us from this.
[SPEAKER_00]: We would donate all of the proceeds from this venture for His sake.
[SPEAKER_00]: They said, not long after making this dua, a bird, who by our both, and dropped some knitting materials and knitting supplies that we were able to use to repair our sail and thus make it to your land.
[SPEAKER_00]: And here we are for filling our oath to Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'an.
[SPEAKER_00]: So the woman, yeah?
[SPEAKER_00]: He looks at the woman and he asked her the same question she asked him.
[SPEAKER_00]: Is Allah just?
[SPEAKER_00]: Who is Allah unjust?
[SPEAKER_00]: Is Allah just was Allah unjust to you?
[SPEAKER_00]: You have a rub who is working for you, on land in the air and the sea.
[SPEAKER_00]: So is Allah just was Allah unjust, and He gives all of it to make your wealthy woman.
[SPEAKER_00]: Because it belongs to you, Allah is repenting what the Adam made this plan for you.
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't need to always understand.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes we ask all of our why me, why you're putting me through such difficulties, why are these sets happening?
[SPEAKER_00]: Because Allah has a plan.
[SPEAKER_00]: Allah has a reason, nothing comes into your life, nothing happens to you, unless Allah has willed it in decreed it, not of leaf-falls from a tree, nothing happens within this universe except it is perfectly in Allah's order and the way He is willed it to be.
[SPEAKER_00]: Our job is simply to trust in Him, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala.
[SPEAKER_00]: When our Prophet ﷺ was surrounded in His house in Mecca, but assassins
[SPEAKER_00]: His house is surrounded, there's nowhere to go.
[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to kill him tonight.
[SPEAKER_00]: Allah orders him to leave.
[SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't know what's going to happen.
[SPEAKER_00]: He has no idea what the plan is, but he knows that Allah has commanded him to leave.
[SPEAKER_00]: So he leaves.
[SPEAKER_00]: He walks out of his door, reciting from the Quran, blows some dust and nobody even sees him.
[SPEAKER_00]: Nobody even sees him.
[SPEAKER_00]: They don't even watch him walk away.
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't need to know the plan.
[SPEAKER_00]: After that, he would meet Abu Bakr, because Abu Bakr stayed behind, you know, everybody out said, maybe a general.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the love we'll talk about this and our upcoming series on the Companions Promise Paradise.
[SPEAKER_00]: Abu Bakr had such love for the prophet Alayhi Sarat to us and am, he waited, he waited and he waited and he waited and even the prophet asked him, why are you waiting?
[SPEAKER_00]: And he said, I can't leave without you.
[SPEAKER_00]: He said, just wait, maybe I'll lower give you a good companion to go with.
[SPEAKER_00]: And so he waited and then he left with Abu Bakr, and they left at night.
[SPEAKER_00]: In the morning the poor age find out that he's gone, when they find out that he's early, sleeping in his bed, and look at the plan of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, Ali lays in his bed willingly that night, willingly, Ali arada alahu alahu alahu alahu alahu alahu alahu alahu alahu alahu, another one of the greatest men who have ever walked the face of this planet, lays in his bed that night, knowing very well that there are assassins going to come in and could possibly kill him.
[SPEAKER_00]: What did he say about that night?
[SPEAKER_00]: He said I've never slept so peacefully.
[SPEAKER_00]: He said, that was the most restful night of sleep I have ever had in my life with assassins around.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a loss of pen who would have had his plan in order.
[SPEAKER_00]: As they're leaving the footage, find out what happens.
[SPEAKER_00]: They send many people out to find him.
[SPEAKER_00]: They put a big reward out for him.
[SPEAKER_00]: A big reward.
[SPEAKER_00]: Everybody's looking all over the place for a profit, someone will know how they was selling.
[SPEAKER_00]: To bring him back so they can kill him.
[SPEAKER_00]: Nobody can find him, except for sarapah ibn Malik, he ends up finding him.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sarapah finds him and sees him ahead of him with Abu Bakr, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: Look at this plan, it's just how it's unfolding.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sarapah is chasing him in the purpose of Muhammad alaihi wa sallam in Abu Bakr, seeing him.
[SPEAKER_00]: And so, the Prophet sallam alaihi wa sallam makes dua to Allah to protect them from sarapah and what happens, his horse falls and sinks into the sand and falls.
[SPEAKER_00]: And then he tells her, and it's stuck.
[SPEAKER_00]: So he tells Yannohamadi, they knew this man was.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yannohamadi made no to all my wantchation no more.
[SPEAKER_00]: So he frees him, and then he starts chating him again.
[SPEAKER_00]: This happens a couple of times, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: And then finally the Prophet ﷺ stops.
[SPEAKER_00]: And he says, shut up.
[SPEAKER_00]: How are you going to be?
[SPEAKER_00]: What is your condition going to be?
[SPEAKER_00]: When one day, when one day, you are given the bracelets of Kisura as bounty from the Muslim community.
[SPEAKER_00]: So Raka, say, what's in the book?
[SPEAKER_00]: This guy is being chased as a criminal.
[SPEAKER_00]: He has no army, he has no help.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's literally alone with Abu Bakr.
[SPEAKER_00]: It is telling me that I'm going to be given the bracelets of Kisra.
[SPEAKER_00]: The greatest empire, one of the greatest empires of the world is ever known.
[SPEAKER_00]: He leaves him at that point.
[SPEAKER_00]: He goes back to the mechanisms of like, just leave him, he's crazy.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we used to joke about him being crazy.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's legitimately crazy.
[SPEAKER_00]: This man says I'm going to be given the bracelets of Saraka.
[SPEAKER_00]: At the time of Omar, Ibn Al-Khattah, Rabbi Al-Al-Huan, when Khalid Ibn Walid, the drawn sort of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'la brings down the Persian Empire, the Roman Empire, and the bounty comes into the Muslim community.
[SPEAKER_00]: So Rakhbah had accepted Islam after Fatiha-N-Makkah, but Omar was going through the bounty, and he opened the box and he saw the bracelets that Kisra was famous for wearing, and he remembered the prophecy of the Prophet,
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the honor and dignity that Allah gives to those who trust Him.
[SPEAKER_00]: He said, tell Saraka, come here.
[SPEAKER_00]: And He said, do you remember Saraka?
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you remember when you were chasing the Prophet, someone wore how they were selling them?
[SPEAKER_00]: And he told you that this would happen.
[SPEAKER_00]: And he himself put those braces on Saraka.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the plan of Allah's repent.
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't need to know how it's going to happen.
[SPEAKER_00]: You just need to know that if Allah says it will happen, it will happen.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's all that needs to be known.
[SPEAKER_00]: Our Prophet ﷺ, when he escaped, so rocked up what happens, the mech is finding him again.
[SPEAKER_00]: And they run into the cave of hell.
[SPEAKER_00]: They run into this little small cave.
[SPEAKER_00]: For those of you who have been there, you know it's very small, very small.
[SPEAKER_00]: And there's an opening underneath.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like literally, if you look up under, you can see all the people that are in it.
[SPEAKER_00]: So they hide in this cave because that's all there is.
[SPEAKER_00]: And the Meccan start coming closer and what does Abu Bakr say to our Prophet ﷺ?
[SPEAKER_00]: He becomes scared, he becomes frightened, he says, oh Messenger of Allah, if they look down at their feet, they're going to see it, they're going to find us.
[SPEAKER_00]: What is the Prophet ﷺ say to him, oh Abu Bakr, what do you think is going to be the end result of two people whom the third is Allah?
[SPEAKER_00]: What do you think is going to happen to two people whom the third is Allah?
[SPEAKER_00]: And of course, we know the very famous story that they weren't found.
[SPEAKER_00]: They weren't caught in our profits all the way, and they were sent in with go on for this insistence.
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't need to understand what's happening in the world.
[SPEAKER_00]: I know there's a lot of time we spend, we try to over-analyze, you know, we try to hypothesize, we try to look at the politics, we try to look at the dynamics, we try to figure out, this is the way it's going to work.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, if they do this, look, it does not matter.
[SPEAKER_00]: Whatever Allah's plan is for this world will be.
[SPEAKER_00]: Whatever Allah's plan for this Ummah is will be.
[SPEAKER_00]: It will be.
[SPEAKER_00]: We cannot escape it.
[SPEAKER_00]: The Qadr of Allah is fixed.
[SPEAKER_00]: The only thing they can change it.
[SPEAKER_00]: The Prophet ﷺ said, say, it is dua.
[SPEAKER_00]: But did Allah make know you're going to make that dua, this is the knowledge of Allah's Subhanahu Wa Ta'am.
[SPEAKER_00]: Everything is already written, you know, that very famous statement, you say, all the time, Makutul, it's written, it's written and whatever is written with Allah, it's inscapable.
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, it's capable, we don't need to know the plan, we just need to trust the planer.
[SPEAKER_00]: Because the planer is Allah, Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, Makarul wa Makarul Allah, Day plan and Allah plans.
[SPEAKER_00]: Allah wa khayr wa makarine and Allah is the best of those who plan, Allah is the best of those who plan.
[SPEAKER_00]: So all we are responsible for is trusting Him, trusting Him, just trusting Him.
[SPEAKER_00]: He knows what He is doing, Subhanahu wa Ta'an.
[SPEAKER_00]: We just need to stand from Him.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell you this, I'm going to tell
[SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes in our own life, we do not understand the way Allah SWT is putting things forward.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I've mentioned this in one of my hateras, but I wanted to make sure it was recorded for the website and for all of you here today.
[SPEAKER_00]: We wonder why Allah is putting us through certain things.
[SPEAKER_00]: And as human beings, we are obsessed with the wine.
[SPEAKER_00]: One of the very first things your children will learn how to say, for those of you who have children you know this, one of their first words is almost always why.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know why, it's just a fitter from children, they learn the word why, they learn what it means and they use it frequently.
[SPEAKER_00]: Every time you tell them to do something, why, why, why, why, why, why, and were you trying to explain to them the one.
[SPEAKER_00]: So the human,
[SPEAKER_00]: psychology is that we must understand the why.
[SPEAKER_00]: It bothers us if we don't understand the why.
[SPEAKER_00]: When it comes to a loss of heaven with the honor, the what cool means that you trust without knowing the why.
[SPEAKER_00]: You trust it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Even if you don't understand, even if it doesn't make sense, even if it consumes completely backwards, you still go forward and you trust a loss of heaven.
[SPEAKER_00]: What to add?
[SPEAKER_00]: once during the pandemic right because during the pandemic we were asking a lot of wise right all of us locked in our house was a lot of wise going on in my head during that time.
[SPEAKER_00]: I was sitting with my daughter doing a jigsaw puzzle and I've used this so much in my therapy sessions and it's been a tremendous help to a lot of people and it was helpful to me.
[SPEAKER_00]: we were doing a jigsaw puzzle and you know when you do a jigsaw puzzle, there are lots of pieces that make sense right away.
[SPEAKER_00]: Edges, faces, flowers, all these different things, you know where they go.
[SPEAKER_00]: And then there's certain pieces, especially if you do the big jigsaw puzzles like my daughter likes to do.
[SPEAKER_00]: There's certain pieces that you don't know where they go, like a solid piece.
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a solid color piece.
[SPEAKER_00]: You have no idea where it goes.
[SPEAKER_00]: So there were a few of these pieces when we pulled out, we pulled them out and I was asking my daughter like, where did these go?
[SPEAKER_00]: She's like, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, okay, let's just throw them away then.
[SPEAKER_00]: They don't have a place.
[SPEAKER_00]: She's like, no, no, why would you do that?
[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to need them later on.
[SPEAKER_00]: and something clicked in my head that this is toakula.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is your life.
[SPEAKER_00]: There are certain things that will happen and this is the world in general.
[SPEAKER_00]: There are certain things that will happen that won't make any sense.
[SPEAKER_00]: These are those puzzle pieces.
[SPEAKER_00]: But the reason they don't make any sense and the reason they don't have a place is because enough of the puzzle has not been built yet.
[SPEAKER_00]: Enough of the puzzle eyes and the billchit.
[SPEAKER_00]: As you continue to build the puzzle of your life, as this world's puzzle continues to be built, there will be pieces that are missing, and then you'll find that piece that you didn't know where it went, it will go right there where it needed to go.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the way it always happened.
[SPEAKER_00]: Where it always happened.
[SPEAKER_00]: I questioned why, when I was a child, was I tortured by my stepmother, like literally tortured, she tortured me mentally and physically.
[SPEAKER_00]: And it matts the way my brain works.
[SPEAKER_00]: I am a highly prone to anxiety till this day in times of ease.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I never made sense to me.
[SPEAKER_00]: I would ask my therapist.
[SPEAKER_00]: Why is it that if I am put in high stress situations?
[SPEAKER_00]: If I'm in a very stressed situation, I'm usually the coolest one in the room.
[SPEAKER_00]: My wife says it's very odd about it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Is that, you know, my daughter fell down the steps one day and we thought she broke her back because she was like, Oh, I can't fill my legs, you know, I can't move because she just, you know, she had actually like hit something that didn't cause her to go numb for a second.
[SPEAKER_00]: And everybody's freaking out, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: But except me, I'm not freaking out.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, let's sit around, don't move her.
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's call.
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's see what, you know, she's like, in those high stress situations, I'm overcome.
[SPEAKER_00]: But then if I'm sitting on my couch on a Sunday afternoon watching football or whatnot, I have panic attacks.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah?
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know where.
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't take a card here.
[SPEAKER_00]: Heart rate goes 170.
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like my doom and gloom, the angel that's gonna walk in the room.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm like, this makes no sense.
[SPEAKER_00]: At the time when I'm supposed to be relaxing, my brain is sitting off lighter flight in dropping a dream than in quarters all the time.
[SPEAKER_00]: But in a high stress situation, I thought it doesn't phase me.
[SPEAKER_00]: My therapist said it's because you were raised in a war zone.
[SPEAKER_00]: You erased in a war zone, you erased with fear.
[SPEAKER_00]: Your stepmother always taught you to be afraid.
[SPEAKER_00]: Anytime she would see me smile, she would beat me, or torture me, and she wanted to make sure I had no enjoyment growing up or locked me in our room for weeks on in.
[SPEAKER_00]: She said to that, became the normal state of your brain.
[SPEAKER_00]: You are brain, you are hippocampus, which is the part of your center of your brain.
[SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't know time and space, it protects you, though.
[SPEAKER_00]: It stores information for later on.
[SPEAKER_00]: she said your hippocampus doesn't know that you are no longer in that threatening situation so your normal stasis is that of war so therefore when you're in those high stress situations your brain knows how to respond because that's how it developed she said but your brain does not know ease and it has not learned peace yet so when you are at ease in it peace that is a warning sign to your brain because that's when your stepmother used to abuse you
[SPEAKER_00]: when you would smile, when you would have ease, when you'd have relaxation, so your hippocampus has stored that, and knows that whenever he's in this situation, it's using him at danger, danger, danger.
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's sending off these warning signals to you.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm thinking to myself, why would a loss of hand and what's out of put me through that is a child?
[SPEAKER_00]: Or I'm looking at the children like, when my daughter comes and asks me about the children of a raza, why are they being tortured like, if a lot is so justified, if a lot is so
[SPEAKER_00]: And so I'm asking why did I go through this?
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I started, now I'm selling, I started doing therapy, psychology was my secular studies, but I started using it in the pandemic, because I realized there was a huge need in the Muslim community for mental health services.
[SPEAKER_00]: And between 20, January 2021, till today, I've seen nearly 4,000 Muslims.
[SPEAKER_00]: Nearly 4,000 Muslims who have gone through so many traumatic things.
[SPEAKER_00]: I've not had one bad review yet and almost 90% of my clients have been repeating clients.
[SPEAKER_00]: And that is that missing piece of the puzzle is that I went through so much as a child.
[SPEAKER_00]: I went through so much.
[SPEAKER_00]: I went through prison all these other things so that now when I talk to people I understand, I can empathize.
[SPEAKER_00]: I can relate, people have been through trauma, people have been through abuse, people I watch my mother, if you didn't watch my domestic violence tapes, go watch them, I watch my mother get abused when I did find another relationship with her literally be into the hospital on time after time after time, so when I talk to people who have been through these situations, I not only now know how to help them but I can relate to them, I can relate to them.
[SPEAKER_00]: The plan of a loss of pen and a woman is perfect.
[SPEAKER_00]: It is perfect.
[SPEAKER_00]: You just need to let the puzzle continue to be built.
[SPEAKER_00]: And then all of the pieces that are missing will find their place.
[SPEAKER_00]: Allah's plan is perfect because it is by Him.
[SPEAKER_00]: It is by Him, Subhanahu Wa'Tan.
[SPEAKER_00]: So when I tell you to trust in Allah, when Allah says to Allah, Allah, have trust in Allah, then that means we do it abandoningly.
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't need to know what that outcome will be.
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't need to know how it's going to happen.
[SPEAKER_00]: we don't need to know when or where or any of that.
[SPEAKER_00]: We just need to know that it will happen by the will of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I know that the promise the last two I will finish, the promise of the Prophet ﷺ is that this Ummah will be victorious and the promise of Allah in the Qur'an, Qur'an for the Helmuh minun, that the believers will be successful.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's all I need to know.
[SPEAKER_00]: So now my job is just to stay upon that, stay a part of this Ummah, stay a believer and the success will come in shā'a Llāhun Ta'ala.
[SPEAKER_00]: However, it's meant to happen, Allah knows best.
[SPEAKER_00]: May Allah SWT protect us all in Shalom.
[SPEAKER_00]: We're on our way to the next video.
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see you in the next video.
