May Allah be with you. May Allah be with you. May Allah be with you. May Allah be with you. May Allah be with you. May Allah be with you. May Allah be with you. May Allah be with you. Allah said which means every living thing will taste death. Your full reward will be paid to you on the day of judgment. The one who has been saved from the hellfire and entered into Jannah, only that person is successful. And the life of this world is deception. We talked about the time of death. We talked about death itself. Today we will talk about the second phase which Allah SWT said Allah said on the day of judgment you will receive your full reward. Now the thing to understand is that Allah is saying you will receive the full reward on the day of judgment. It doesn't mean that you will not receive any reward until then. This is the way. This is the mistake. People who deny the conditions of the grave, the Azabul Qabr, the Sahabul Qabr and they say there is no Azabul Qabr and there is only judgment day, judgment will be done. If that is the case then what do we do with the mention of the Azabul Qabr, specifically mention of Azabul Qabr in the Quran? Allah SWT mentioned and said that the Fir'aun and his people are shown, the fire, morning and night. And on the day of judgment they will be returned towards the worst of punishment. Two specifically separate things. If you want to deny the Azabul Qabr then what do you say about the dua of Rasulullah himself? Which is the last dua we make in Tashahud when we finish our salah. And many of the walama and ayima have said that your salah is incomplete if you don't make this dua. Allahumma inni a'uz bika min azabil qabri wa minal naar. Begins with this. Allahumma inni a'uz bika min azabil qabri wa minal naar wa na'uz bika min fitnatil mahyai wa mamat wa min fitnatil masihil dajan. This dua, you have to memorize it and do it. If you are not doing it in Tashahud then your salah is not complete. It begins with O Allah I seek your protection from the azabul Qabr. And the azab of the fire. Two separate things. And Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam himself is asking this. Allahumma inni a'uz bika. I am myself. Ya Allah I am asking. So if the Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is seeking refuge from the azab of the Qabr. Obviously it does not apply to him. This is a thing which he is teaching us. And this is something which he is saying to. Because Allah SWT commanded him to teach us. What does it mean? It means there is an azabul Qabr. Again all of these are not things for us to debate with people and to argue and so on. When you go into the Qabr you will know. So if somebody tells you there is no azabul Qabr. No problem brother. What do you think? I don't think. I do not think. When there is a text. When the Kalam of Allah is before me I don't think. What is there to think? Allah SWT is saying something. You want me to think over this? Allah SWT is saying something. You want me to think over this? What kind of delusion is that? What do you think? What is the value of my opinion? Nothing. Zero. So don't get into any arguments. What Allah has said, Allah has said. And our job is to inform. Our job is to inform. Nothing more. And then information has come to us from Rasulullah SAW. So Allah is saying full reward. Now what happens in between? Nabi SAW described in terms of the azabul Qabr. He described different things that happen. There is azab of the fire. There is azab of snakes. There is azab. There is azab of people who have illegally occupied or usurped other people's property, land especially. Nabi SAW said in the Qabr he is, he will be hammered with a hammer, with an iron hammer on his head, which will send him down seven earths. Then he will come back and be smashed again, goes down seven earths. And this will continue until the day of judgment. Allah. celebr celebr celebr celebr celebr celebr celebr celebr celebr If you have deliberately left Salah, you could pray, you did not pray, nobody can help you. Nobody can help you. It doesn't matter what else you did. It does not matter what else you did. Maybe you did Hajj, maybe you did, you fasted. We have a peculiar situation. We have people who fast all of Ramadan, but they won't pray. So fasting is also like a cultural thing. Everybody in the house is fasting. If you fast, you will get a party. Fasting is a fast. Can you believe it? The Adab of the Qabar is real. Then on the Day of Judgement, and again the opposite is also real. The Saab of the Qabar. In the Qabar itself, Allah SWT will give us a taste of the Qabar. Jannah. We ask Allah SWT for this. Allah SWT mentioned, Arabic Arabic Arabic Arabic Arabic Arabic Arabic celebr celebr celebr Allah said those people who said those who said Allah is my Rabb and they were firm on that they were on that ...

    Auto-generated transcript:Muhammad is the Messenger of God and His體 & his family. Peace and blessings be upon him & the those who are Copts. Also said in Sajsa consummation And yesterday we talked about the first part where Allah said, كل نفس ذائقة الموت Everything, every living thing will taste death. So what is death? ما هو موت؟ What is death? We think, generally people think, that everything ends with death. For example, if somebody is in pain, they are in hospital, they are suffering or something, at least his suffering is over. کم از کم تکلیف تو ختم ہوئی. بولتے رہیم. So we think death is the end of the story. But the truth, the reality is, death is the beginning of the story. موت زندگی کے یا حیات کے اختتام کا نام نئی ہے. موت اختیار کے اختتام کا نام ہے. Death is not the name of the end of existence. Death is the name of the end of existence. Death is the ability to do anything. موت زندگی کے یا حیات کے اختتام کا نام نئی ہے. There is a story of one of the Salaf As-Salihin, his daughter died before him. موت زندگی کے یا حیات کے اختتام کا نام نئی ہے. So one day he saw his daughter in a dream. And he asked her, how is it? She said, we can see everything but we can do nothing. And you can do everything, but you can see nothing. so she has died she is telling her father in the dream we can see everything but we can do nothing but you in this life you can do everything but you see nothing that is the reason why we have the Kalam of Allah SWT because even though we cannot see anything Allah has told us what will happen we have the beautiful Hadith of Rasulullah narrated in Musnad Imam Ahmad narrated by Al-Bara bin Azib who said that Rasulullah said meaning of which is verily when the believing slave is about to depart this world and enter the hereafter this is the narration of the time of death I don't know if any of you have seen somebody actually dying I have seen and on the face of the person there may be nothing it may seem like nothing is happening they are eyes are shut, they are sleeping but everything is happening there and that's why death has been compared to sleep because in sleep also the soul leaves the body goes to Allah SWT and if the death of the person is there Allah keeps it if it is not there it comes back so in sleep also you may see a dream you may see a very beautiful dream but the person may be sitting next to you they are seeing you but they don't see anything they are seeing you sleeping similarly you might be having a terrible nightmare but you are not sleeping you are not sleeping in this nightmare literally if you actually hook up ECG machines and stuff you might see his heart is his blood pressure is going through the roof his heart is beating very fast and so on he is running from some monster in the dream but on the face of it you don't see anything so here Rasool Allah is saying this is the time of departure at this time you are leaving verily when the believing slave is about to die you are leaving you are leaving you are leaving after leaving if you don't believe after leaving, you aren't going to die no fear you don't know no fear пَيْخُق are the hand of Allah No fear they aren't no no you are being what messengers yes Moses Mo it is correct present we ask all the people today put those hands put those hands now the whole acho Hakan ни kabar the ally the company is and sits by his head and he says Ya ayyatuha nafsu al mutmain irji'i ila rabbiki raadiya tam marziya fadkhuli fi ibadihi wadkhuli jannati Allah SWT tells us words O pure soul come out to the forgiveness and pleasure of Allah then his soul comes flowing out like a drop of water flowing from a cup there is no pain, no suffering just wonderful then Malakul Maul takes the soul and no sooner does he seize it but they take it the other angels take it and they place it in that shroud and the perfume then out of it comes the most excellent fragrance of musk to be found on the face of the earth then they ascend with it and they pass any group of angels that they pass by the angels ask who is this pure soul and they reply it is so and so, the son of so and so using the best names by which he was known on earth then they bring it to the lowest heaven and ask for the doors to be opened and it is opened for him those who are of high rank in each heaven accompany the soul until they approach the next heaven and so on until they reach the seventh heaven then Allah SWT says record the book of my slave in illiyun illiyun which is the highest heaven and take him back to the earth for I created them from it and I shall return them to it and then I will take them out from it again then his soul is returned to his body and the two angels come up and make him sit up and then the hadith mentions the questioning of the grave questioning in the grave ...

    Auto-generated transcript:In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. In one ayat, Allah SWT mentioned four things. The first thing He said is, Every living thing will taste death. Kullu nafsin. Whether the person is a good person or a bad person. Whether it is Pharaoh or the Nabi. Extremes. Whether it is rich or poor, healthy or wealthy, healthy or sick, whatever. Kullu nafsin da'ikhatul mudh. If it was born, it will die, period. First thing. Second thing. Fa innama tuwaffawna wujurakum yawmal qiyamah. Allah said, And you will receive, your full reward only on the Day of Judgment. So, some reward Allah will give in this dunya. Both good and bad. But actual full reward only on the Day of Judgment. Fa innama tuwaffawna wujurakum yawmal qiyamah. And then Allah SWT stated something which is the, which is a criterion between success and failure. We want to be successful. We want to have great careers. We want to have name, fame, you name it. But Allah SWT said the measure. Faman zuhzi'ani nari wa udkhilal jannata faqad faas. The one who has been saved from the hellfire and entered into Jannah, only that person is successful. Faqad faas. Nobody else. In the Quran, Allah SWT used two words for success. Falah and fawz. Falah and fawz. Muflihoon fa'izoon. Falah is success, but which is temporary. Meaning, after the success, there is some more exam. You passed your metric exam. Successful, alhamdulillah. First in class, what not, what not. But can you say, okay, fine, I'm done. You're not done. That's only metric, 10th class. After this, you have intermediate. You pass that. Are you done? No. Then after that, you have your undergraduate. Are you done? No. Then after that, you have your postgraduate. And this goes on. At the end of all that, you are starting your career. Will you get into the interview or not? Once you get into the interview, now what happens to your career? What happens to your career? You're looking at another 35 years. So even though you are successful, there is some exam after that. But fawz, fawzoon azeem, Allah said, fa'izoon, may Allah grant us all of that, inshallah. Fawz is success, which is ultimate, daiman. Success, after this, there is no exam. Finished. Last exam. Now, it's only, enjoy. Last exam. After this, there is no exam. So who is that person? Who is finally successful? The one who is freed from the hellfire and entered into Jannah. And the last thing which Allah mentioned, Jalal Jalaluhu, He said, He said, This life of this world is nothing but deception. Deception. See, even in the way things are stated. For example, you can say, the life of this world is deception. But Allah did not say that. Allah said, the life of this world is nothing but deception. You know, the emphasis is much more. Nothing but this. So everything in this world which seems to be success, is not success. Deception means what? Deception means whatever appears is not how it appears. Nowadays, thanks to AI, you are getting example after example of deception. People send these videos. There's one doing the rounds. There was one, first of all, of an elephant which, you know, was pushing a deer, a cheetal, out of a flood water. After some time, exactly same kind of flood water. If you notice the two things, it's exactly the same thing. Now this elephant is a tiger. And this elephant is helping this tiger. The tiger is now climbing on top of the elephant. And they say the elephant is helping the tiger. So they sent it to me. They said, is it true or false? I said, total false. They said, how do you say that? What is the AI? I said, you don't have to know AI. You have to know wildlife. There's no earthly way that it won't happen. First of all, because a tiger weighs what? 200 plus kilos. For 200 plus kilos of cat to climb on top of the elephant, what is he using? Four inch claws. . Can you imagine? If he climbs on top of the elephant from the ear on top of the head, what will he do to the ear, to the trunk, to the elephant? Completely lacerate it and destroy it, you know. There's not one drop of blood being shown on that film. Now who will believe that? Because people who don't understand wildlife. Oh, what's happening? What's happening? What's happening? You are being fooled. That's what's happening. It's a very benign form. There's much more malignant ways in which we are being fooled in this life. So fourth is Allah mentioned. The reason I'm saying this is because it is Allah did not simply send the Quran for us to recite it and say wah wah or something. No. The purpose of the nuzool of the Quran is to say, the nuzool of the Quran al-Kareem is to understand it and to live by it. It doesn't matter how much Quran you know. What matters is how much Quran is in your life. How much Quran do you actually need to know? You have to pray. If you know Surah al-Fatiha and you know one...
