my dear brothers and sisters once again I apologize for any inconvenience I cause to you by forcing you to come out on another night than you originally intended and I ask Allah subh to accept all of your good deeds all of your duas all of your well wishes for the people of Gaza and Beyond Allah how many people were included amongst C the sleepers of the cave can anybody tell me how many sleepers were there in the cave I heard some numbers seven three all of you are potentially right cuz Allah subhana t until the
end of the Ayah that they will say that they were three and that the fourth was their dog they will say that they were five and that the sixth was their dog Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala knows their true number why am I starting off with this I want you for a moment to imagine that you were one of the first people to convert to Islam that you were one of the muhajirin in Mecca one of the early Muslims in Mecca how difficult it was for you to already be going against the grain by believing in
Muhammad s wasam all of the mockery the lack of an outside validating power the lack of an inside validating power structure the lack of family support the lack of financial means the lack of a m where you can come together and nourish your faith you only have secret home of gathering where you can come together under the tight scope of the people of meca hoping that you won't get caught keeping your voices down and trying to stay out of sight and Allah subhah wa taal reveals an Ayah which is extremely interesting the Ayah is Allah
says that The Gatekeepers of hell are 19 why would Allah subhah wa ta'ala withhold from us the number of but Allah subhana wa tala gives such a precise number of The Gatekeepers of Hellfire what this does is it leads to a mockery amongst the people of meca you see Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala was teaching teaching the people of mecah as he would teach the people of Medina that God does not play on the terms of man that Allah does not respond to the demands and the conditions of man that Allah sets the terms not you
and so when you make demands of Allah subhana wa T and you say to the prophet sallai wasallam tell me this and tell me that even the prophet s alhi wasallam has to say inshallah to get the answer that are demanded of him in Medina and Allah subhana T still makes it a FNA to say that some things are irrelevant to you and you have to believe without delving into those details and so just as Allah withheld a specific number in Medina Allah gave a very specific number in meca I want you to follow along
with me and put yourself in that situation when Allah says that there are 19 Gatekeepers of Hell Abu jahal makes a mockery of this he says if it's 19 we can take them if we're put in Hell Fire and it's only 19 we play the numbers game and playing the numbers game in bad didn't work too well for Abu jahal did it cuz he played the numbers game in and thought bad would be a walk in the park we're a th they're 313 we've got this so he said if they're 19 then that's fine we
can overpower them we can break out of Hellfire if there is a Hellfire and then we can occupy our places in Jenna ha haa that's the mood the arrogance of a pharaoh and Subhan Allah there's a reason why he's the Pharaoh of this um he had a mind set like the Pharaoh he had a way of thinking like you know said if there's a God in the heavens go ahead and build me a tall structure let me go meet him this is the way that a proud and arrogant being speaks about the Divine oh fine
19 we've got it there's another man in the dust bin of History big huge man he said I've got an idea for you all I'll take 17 you guys handle two of the Angels why would Allah subhana wa ta'ala give the room for them to make this type of a mockery of Islam pause for a moment the prophet sallallah alaihi wasallam could have gone on the Journey of which many will be speaking about in the month to come in fact it's my next lecture in the series I'm doing Ona and the prophet Propet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam could have kept the journey to himself because he knows that the people of Mecca will make a mockery of it oh you went to Jerusalem last night to the heavens and came back all in one night hold on one second Abu Bakr you hear what he's saying the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam had he been the fabricator they accused him of being he could have withheld Surah because to make that type of a political calculation that the Romans will defeat the Persians between three and 9 years is dangerous you're staking the Integrity of your mission
all in a political calculation that may or may not prove to be true and someone who had a disease in their hearts and weak belief would have said Allah you know let's hold that one tighter to your chest don't put us in an awkward situation by revealing this to the people Allah subhana says Hellfire has 19 angels that are guarding it and you know what's incredible Allah subhana mentions by the way we purposefully revealed the number 19 as a FNA as a test and a trial for the disbelievers let them mock let them say ha
haa 19 Angels guarding Hellfire and Subhan Allah imagine how stupid they will feel when they are in Hellfire staring at those angels and those angels are throwing them back in and tossing them into the punishment that they once denied may Allah subhana T protect us from being with them Allah we made it it was a f for them it was meant to test them it was meant to try them but Allah also says with the same number that was given so that the people of the book will have they will have certainty that this message
is from Allah subh can anybody tell me what that means I can hear you insh raise your voice if anyone knows what that means so that the people of the book can have certainty does anybody know what that means anybody okay I don't think they're talking about what I'm asking Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala was revealing something that was known to the people of the book The Scholars of the people of the book The rabbis of the tat who were waiting for a messenger to arise camped out in y they knew that this was previously revealed
information that would have been inaccessible to an illiterate Arab in the middle of Mecca the Christian Scholars who were truly upon the way of is who were trying to be upon the monotheism of Jesus peace be upon him and waiting for Allah subhanahu wa tala to send that messenger they knew that biblically speaking at some point it was revealed to them the exact same tidbit of information and so if you are a or you are abdah one of the scholars of the scripture you will have more certainty that he is indeed and those who have
faith will be increased in faith you see Subhan Allah the same piece of information that is a fitna for the disbelievers is a reason for belief of the people of the book and a means by which the belief of the Believers actually increases when Allah revealed what others considered ridiculous put his money where his mouth was yeah the Romans will defeat the Persians I'd bet my entire fortune on it the Romans will defeat the Persians because whatever that man says sallallah alaihi wasallam is true because he never speaks from his own he speaks based on
divine revelation and I'm not embarrassed I'm not worried about what you're going to say I'm not worried about your laughter in fact I do I seek the reward for your laughter with Allah subhana wa tala and I feel even more comfort in my heart I say it with my chest out what the prophet wasallam says is true what Allah has revealed is true and I have no doubt about it whatsoever and so when they go to the abak after the prophet wasallam mentions the Journey of say Abu Bakr heard what he said he said that
he went to Jerusalem and the heavens and came back to Mecca all in one night AB doesn't stutter he doesn't go man I wish I wish they never found that Hadith I wish the islamophobes never heard it he didn't say wait wait wait hold on that's ridiculous let me go check and see what he really said he says with a full chest is if he says it he's telling the truth I believe him when he says that the lord of the heavens and the Earth directly communicates to him in Revelation and that is a far
greater feat than going from Mecca to Jerusalem and coming back in one night so if he said it he's telling the truth and I'm not embarrassed about it and I have no doubt in it whatsoever the same piece of information that made the Muslims a laughing stock increase the Believers in their belief and piak the Curiosity of those that were sincere Seekers of Truth dear brothers and sisters we take a step back and I want to talk to the present that we are in right now don't you ever let anyone shame you with your religion
don't you ever let anyone make you feel ridiculous for believing in what Allah has said or what the prophet sallallah alaihi wasallam has said don't you ever let them cause you sh chck cause you doubt in your heart and say really so so you believe in Deal oh and you believe Jesus Isam is going to descend at that Mina and you believe in y and Ma and and you believe in oh you believe that the Earth is going to do this and do that and you believe in this fairy tale of paradise ha ha ha
one day you will sit on Thrones and you will laugh at them don't you ever let them say aren't you embarrassed that this is a part of the Quran and the Sunnah instead say that if I have embarrassment then it is either due to my lack of understanding it or my lack of faith not a flaw in the religion the messenger believes in everything that was revealed to him as do the Believers all of them believe in Allah and they believe in the angels they believe in The Messengers they believe in the books they have
no doubt whatsoever because if he said it sallallah wasam I believe it someone might say well isn't that Blind Faith it's not blind faith it is acknowledging that every single human being is necessarily blind to the full reality of existence and that we have faith in the one who is the one who is allseeing and we have relegated our trust to him and we have no doubt in anything that he revealed to us because whether some science comes later on to prove it you know Subhan Allah there was an article about ants and how ants
speak to each other and I remember a teenager coming to me with the article and saying see Allah told the truth when Allah is talking about the communicating to each other in the time of isn't this amazing I didn't need the article someone points out an article that the human being is conscious after they're buried that Consciousness that scientists have discovered that Consciousness is there for at least seven days I didn't need that I have the about what happens in the grave now when Allah shows us signs certainly the heart is put even further at
ease faith is increased upon Faith but I don't need that to know because the all knowing already told us already has told us already has given us the has given us the news I'm okay I don't need any more than that why do I bring this to our time Allah subh says the Believers Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Allah subhana waala being pleased with Allah subh we sayl Muhammad I'm pleased with Allah subh as my Lord I'm pleased with Muhammad as my messenger I'm pleased with Islam is my religion that
is I'm pleased with his decree I'm pleased with his legislation I'm at full ease and peace with his Revelation at full ease and at peace with his decree and when you laugh at it you don't make me feel bad you actually only increase me let me bring that to our Global political scenario every time I'm going to be very open here every time I post the news about another Shahid in Gaza you get the islamophobes the zionists they come and they Mock and they say oh well I bet he's met his now ha haa oh
he's got his trees now he's no longer in Gaza you fools believe he's in a paradise and I wonder what God is saying to him now haaha and I say alhamdulillah you will eat your words one day while these people enjoy what you mock while these people realize what you deny you will one day eat your words and you don't shake our faith whatsoever when the people of festine stand up and the people of Gazza stand up and they say one day we will be free while standing in the rubble hearing the drones above them
Starving in their stomachs missing Limbs and they still say it's unbelievable if they have that IM if they have that y who are we sit back here in our political calculations and say it's not looking good it's not looking good to you it's not looking good to me but everything is on plan with Allah subh they know it because they're people of Y the question is whether we know it or not there's an asheed that they sing and it was an asid that came out of the Egyptian revolution that we will stay here until the
pain goes away we will live here the Rhythm will one day change they don't have any doubt someone looks at the Muslim world and says what's going to come out of that pile of garbage look at you people you're pathetic let the colonialists laugh let the empires laugh for like the empires and the tyrants that came before them they will one day be buried under the rubble and everything that they put forth as a so-called achievements will be an artifact of testimony against them for the evil that they wre on this Earth before Allah subhana
wa tala brings it out on the day of judgment the day that all secrets will be revealed let them laugh let them mock us let them say you have no hope let them tap out on Islam and the Muslim World let them say that religion is a thing of the past let them say that you believe in fairy tales and an unseen God because you know who that was said to before Muhammad S.I wasallam they mocked him they laughed in his face they thought that they were crazy they put them down they tried to break
their Spirit they tried to twist their emotions and it didn't work to the point that when the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wasallam stands with Abu Bakr and Omar in the mountains of and they're covered in blood has the audacity to say oh enemy of Allah Allah has caused to remain that which is a cause of your humiliation we're not going anywhere we're okay alul the promise of Allah is just as true now as it was two years ago things look just as promising now as they looked then even if I can't see it I
know that he can and I'm pleased alhamdulillah alhamdulillah alhamdulillah the promise of Allah is true but most people just don't know because they're so relegated to the surface level of things they don't understand the secrets of creation because they don't know the power of their creator and so they're spiritually dead they're emotionally dead and they're relegated to the physical and the physical will one day collapse on them and if the people of Gazza are physically under the rubble then those that have wed this tyranny on them are spiritually in Ruins and under the rubble and
Allah subhana tal will certainly shame them and show them for who they are but dear brothers and sisters it's times of FNA and in a time of FNA there's going to be poking and say you still believe you still believe in this religion you still believe in a path to Victory you still believe that Islam will grow and Thrive you still believe in all of this you're still insisting on your backward ways you're still wearing hijab you're still praying out in public you're still doing all these things what's wrong with you they will make you
think something is wrong with you and that will emanate only from the emptiness that is within themselves don't adopt their emptiness insist on your fullness as the prophet s wasallam said when Shan causes you doubt say I believe in Allah repeat it with your heart full repeat it with a chest full you come across ay or Hadith you don't understand accuse yourself and say I don't get it yet but I know it's true I'll get there I believe in Allah subhana tala I'm pleased with Allah subhana wa tala and one day dear brothers and sisters
we will celebrate if not in this life then in the next and here's the thing because the Hereafter is just as real to us as here because the life after death is just as real to us as the life before death then we are not relegated to having to see the fullness of Allah subhana wa T's plan come to fruition before death and here because we believe that here and now is such a small part of our existence alhamdulillah the true test of your Iman the true test of your y the true test of your
faith is not when you can see Allah's wisdom playing out it's when you believe in Allah's wisdom even when you can't comprehend a single part of it in regards to something specific that's happening and you say alhamdulillah Allah has shown me enough to believe in that which he has not shown me I've seen Allah's wisdom play out in enough things in my life to have Yen that he is with the things that I cannot understand at all every moment every leaf every drop of rain every withheld moment every withheld sustenance is part of his divine
plan and whatever Allah and the messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam have said is true and whatever Allah and the messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam have said is better do not let anyone mock you with your religion do not let anyone mock you with the Prophecies of your Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam believe in them when others are starting to lose faith in them and insist on them when others mock them may Allah subhana T make us a people of e and Y may Allah make us a people who believe and who have thaat who have firmness upon that
belief and who have a good ending who leave this world saying as smoothly as we're saying it right now may Allah subh allow it to flow from our tongues to take root in our hearts and may Allah subhana T forgive us for the times that we have doubt and may Allah subhana remove from us The Whispers of the devil and The Lure and the temptation of our desires and may Allah subhana wa taala not let us face the humiliation the humiliation of our enemies may Allah subhana wa tala honor us with seeing the humiliation of
our enemies instead
