And yada alaikum alaikum. Say Allah is the one who is is all-powerful to send you an adult from anywhere above you. Oh, mint, Atia of the julii comb or from anything underneath you. A lot can send punishment from anywhere and our Prophet
salallahu alaihe. Wasalam recited this verse and he paused at 4:00 on and he said, I seek refuge in Allah in X. The face of Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala and then he recited ohm entity, or adjudication and he said I seek refuge in the face of Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala and then the last phrase was all you You talk about combat but Saddam or he can cause some of you to go to war with others and you can then feel the punishment through
Civil War and our professor. Some said that is easier to deal with subhanallah civil. War is easier to deal with than the direct. I doubt that comes from sources. We do not understand the war that we see between people's, we can see the enemy, we can fight the enemy and our profits of
some said that is easier. But the war we cannot see that either of that is beyond our Our understanding and comprehension, that is the idea that we have no protection whatsoever except to turn to Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala. And, that is why even our Prophet salallahu alaihe wasalam said, who do be what chick I seek refuge in your watch over LA from anything of that nature happening.
And Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala mentions in the or on, he has the power to take us. Well, home Li a shrewd own and they have no preparedness. No concept that is going to come and this is exactly. We see around us Allah subhanahu. Wa'ta'ala reminds us that there is always a higher purpose. There is always a wisdom for any punishment coming. Dear Muslims, if we are not going to wake up in this current Calamity, then when will we wake
up? Allah says in Surah than is Sarah one menudo suitable body, Inlet aquifer. We only send our signs down so that we caused them to have reverence. We caused them to fear our punishment. Shipment Allah does not reveal the punishment in this world except that there's always a mechanism to save ourselves from the punishment of the Hereafter. The purpose of, any communal Calamity in this Dunya is to protect ourselves from the individual Calamity, on the day
of judgment woman. Ooh, to see Ruble IRT Inlet aquafaba. We only send our signs down in order that they achieve a level of fear in still remember Rinse in their hearts that they become scared of the punishment of Allah and hence return to Allah subhanahu. Wa'ta'ala, the famous student of your been abuzz qatada. He said, talking about this verse, he said, Allah tests people, however, he wants and he brings fear in this world so that they can reflect and be reminded and return to Allah
subhanahu wa'ta'ala. Allah tests people, however, he wants and he causes them to be scared in this. Dunya. And the purpose is to avoid the fear of the Hereafter the purpose is to reflect and to be reminded and hence return to Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala once in the halawa valley radiallahu on, there was a an earthquake has a setup that happened in kufa and even massoud was present over there and had been Miss Ruth.
Recited, this verse one, man, who'd a suitable I-80 in Latakia, rifa and then it must root stood up and he spoke to the people after the earthquake and he said, oh no! And kind, this is a warning from Allah, so pay heed to the warning. O mankind. This is a warning. It's the first warning. It's the first sign. So pay heed to that warning and Hasan Al basri, recited, this verse 10 Newton suitability Inlet aquifer. And he said, what greater to
queef is there? What greater mechanism then, Mass deaths amongst the people, the reference being plagues here because nothing causes Mass debts. Like plagues meaning one of the Main mechanisms of tha queef is by plagues and this is something we are seeing over here. Dear Muslims, it is. Narrated in the famous Treatise on plagues by the famous scholar ribbon a bit Dunya with a nice nod to our mother Aisha radiallahu. Anhum that an asymptomatic visited an issue along with
somebody. Somebody with him behind the curtain and the other person said oh, oh mother of the Believers o. Our mother. Can you explain to us why these earthquakes are happening. Why these Eleazar? Happening.
And the Arabic Zina, it means an earthquake, but it can also imply, any major Calamity, our mother Aisha said when the people start committing sins and when the people consider the major sins to be nothing and she mentioned some of the scenes like Xena and like, how much and like other things. She said, Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala in the heavens becomes angry and he says to the Earth, punish them.
And so if they repent the It is lifted, and if they do not repent, the punishment continues, till it is destroyed. The brother, the person with an asymptomatic said, oh, mother of the Believers. Is this a general punishment to all of us is radiallahu. Anha said been more Everton
parameter little minion. It is a means to think and Ponder. And it is a means of Mercy for the Believers when a card and why the band was so hot on idle Covidien and as for those Whose Hearts have become so hard. They have rejected Allah for them, it will be indeed a punishment and an Arab and a member of angrist of Allah
subhanahu wa'ta'ala. So, in this beautiful narration from our mother Aisha, we learned the same message that the Quran and the Sunnah is telling us over and over again. Every single, I doubt that comes down every single Calamity that comes down. It is a reason for us to wake up. It is a reason for us to waken our dead hearts. To return to Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala and to turn over a new Leaf.
Dear Muslims. Let us remember the beautiful story of God have been Malik. A story that I don't have time to tell you all of it, but please read it up and log online. There are many lectures, I have given others have given about the repentance of cabin Malik. And it is so pertinent, because one of the ways that God was punished is a way that all of us are feeling right now.
One of the ways that Allah subhanahu Allah sent down a minor punishment of this world to forgive cab so that God's Place could be raised in Jenna was social isolation, read the story, Kathy be magic committed, a sin and he disobeyed Allah and his messenger and he had no excuse when the profit system confronted him and said why did you do what you did? Cobb lowered his head and he said Harris would Allah if I
wanted to I could invent a lie. I could Slither my way out in front of you but Allah would know that it is a lie. Why I have no excuse, I am a sinner and I have sinned, he admitted and he confessed his sin and he said I have no excuse out us will Allah. And so the professor some said you have spoken the truth, let Allah azzawajal deal with you. And so the command came down, what was the verdict on cloud?
Everybody should abandon cab? Everybody should ostracize him cab could not go to anybody's house. Nobody visited cab. Nobody could even say Salam to cab on the 40th Day. The message came to him that even your wife and your children must leave. You can't I was left literally all alone. Literally complete social isolation and he as the Hadith mentions, he busied himself with liquid and Quran and Salah.
He turned to Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala for repentance and it was only on the 50th day that Allah azzawajal revealed in the Quran Surah taubah that we recite to this day while Acela 30 lady in a holy fool, had Terry Dubrow Allahumma Salli, him home while one. No a manager.
I mean a law he ill aleihi Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala describes, the situation of cab that this whole world despite how vast it was, it appeared narrow and constricted this vast Dunya, it appeared like a Strange Land to them. This is how we are living. Now, not as bad as cab, but still kind of felt a little bit of what we are feeling. We feel a little bit of what cab is feeling and a lot.
And there were two other than says that phrase that I want to bring to my attention and your attention while one know Allah major Amino law, he illa Allah and they realized that there is no running away from Allah except to Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala. We cannot protect ourselves from Allah except with Allah, we turn to Allah for protection from Allah. Subhanahu wa'ta'ala there is no worldly power that will protect us.
No super power will come. Between us and the color of Allah, no science, no civilization. All of our technology has become useless in light of this. Smallest of the smallest creations of Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala woven, no a la monja Amina wahi illa Allah. This is the reality that we need to embody in this verse, we need to recognize. Nothing will save us except turning to Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala.
We need to understand there is no power greater than a la la hawla Wala. Cool water in Louisville, Alia love him. This is why this adapt has come upon us because there's a communal state of arrogance, and La Fleur. Let us turn back to Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala. Let us ReDiscover the reality of mm and the sweetness of Faith. Let us humble ourselves in this Dunya perchance. Allah May lift his either up in this Dunya and especially in the arquero.
May Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala bless me and you with and through the Quran and may he make us of those who is worse. Versus they understand and to apply is halal and Haram throughout their life spans.
