Al Sh For dear brothers and sisters alhamdulillah by most decisions and by most Scholars tonight M will begin the Blessed month of Raj inshallah Allah subhana says inside the Quran that verily in the book of Allah subhana tala the months are 12 since the moment Allah subh created the heavens and
Earth this is the upright religion and don’t oppress yourselves there in within these these four um sacred months and rajab happens to be one of the four sacred months brothers and sisters in Islam the month of rajab is of utmost importance to us within this month we recognize one of
The biggest eventful Miracles that happened to Prophet Muhammad s. wasam in this month we recognize that Prophet Muhammad s. wasam he was taken by Allah subhana wa ta’ala on a night Journey during a portion of of the night from the beautiful and blessed land of meah to Jerusalem and
Therein he ascended towards the heavens and met the prophets Prophet Muhammad sallahu alaihi wasallam before we got into this was a year of Sorrow for Prophet Muhammad Sall alai wasallam Prophet Muhammad Sall alai wasallam he lost his uncle although he was a mush and did not accept Islam he
Was a big big big reason why the kufur were not able to kill Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam even though they wanted to and finish off the message so that Islam would be no more and then he also lost his beloved wife where Prophet Muhammad s alai
Wasallam he loved her so much as he tells I was I was given the love for her I was given love and Prophet Muhammad sahu Al wasallam as we know this was the year of Sorrow he was beaten by the people of Mecca persecuted his people he was called names he was cursed
At he was laughed at and they continuously tried to undermine him but we find that indeed that Allah subhana he says with every hardship comes ease verily with every hardship comes ease you will find brothers and sisters in our first lesson is that no matter how hard life gets Allah subhana tal
Will tend to put to put you through difficult tests and trials but you be patient and you pass them and Allah subhana it’s as if he gives you a big hug and gives you a big sense of comfort and ease and this was for Prophet Muhammad s Al
Wasallam and we hope for a such will be the people of philistine that they’re going through so much but inshallah very soon we will be getting bounties and many years and generations of Peace So we ask Allah subhana tal for peace and blessings on the people of
Philistine so the first lesson you may have times of difficulty and trials but Allah subhana always will give you that comfort and we find that again Prophet Muhammad s wasallam even though it was dangerous for him to be by the Kaa and worshiping Allah subhana tala he happened to be in
A state that was in between sleepful he was between sleepiness and awake but then Allah subhana tal then decended Al a creature for Prophet Muhammad sahu Ali wasallam to mount on an angel was also there for him as well he was also before he rode that his
Chest was opened and his heart was cleaned with Faith from the Angels it was cleaned with Faith from the angels and it was the second time that happened in Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam life afterwards he then rides on this B in which in a Hadith it is mentioned that
Al he is smaller than a horse but larger than that of a donkey or mule and when he wrote on this Allah subhana tala he performs a miracle in such that wherever Al the distance that an eyesight can see Al’s footsteps will be there and so he ascends from me to
Al he head toward Jerusalem and so this is lesson number two over here that this is a beautiful symbolic you know gester or it is basically linking to Al whereas the many prophets has been there to Jerusalem Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam being the seal and final messenger has
Also gone to Jerusalem Ling to those two bless L together before that ibraim he had traveled as well from and he went to and as you know that he and his son is built the foundations of the Kaa so basically the religion of Islam you know is just there’s so much around
It in terms of and and so from there we know that Prophet Muhammad s he prays with all the messengers and this is shows us that Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam he was the most noble of The Messengers and he was the one who finalized the religion of Islam he
Completed the messages that were bought from Adam all the way down to him Prophet Muhammad Muhammad s Alam is not the father of any of your men rather he is the Seal of The Messengers he is a he is the the messenger of Allah subhana tal and he is
The Seal of The Messengers and Allah subhana has knowledge of everything and this totally symbolizes that but it is not a new faith it is the completion of that of isim all of The Messengers and so he prays with them and then after that he ascends towards the heavens
Al and where where he ascends to them he meets The Messengers one by one from the heavens Adam andam in s and he keeps on going upwards and upwards Yu he meets ADR he meets Haron and he meets Mam and he meets Sim he meets all these Messengers as he ascends towards the
Heavens and then as we know that another lesson that we take is that a Salah came from the heaven our prayer was demanded was commanded upon us while Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam he ascended to the heavens and so the idea of prayer should not be taking lightly and it should also
Be for you to know for all of us to know that what we do on Earth in terms of prayer is a direct link inshallah to go to paradise and this is why it’s very important for us that we complete our five prayers we know that Mam and I wish
We could go in more detail but we know that M he had told Prophet Muhammad sallahu alai wasallam or Prophet Muhammad he told mam that he was given 50 prayers and was asked to reduce the number by mam several times until it was reduced to the five we know
Today five prayers but 50 in reward this is what we get from the beautiful event of So here we want to talk about in just a little bit again one of the pillars of Islam is to perform and establish a here again it was it was commanded from the heavens and so therefore we know this is something that is very huge for us it is a big
Uning so we have to be dependent on patience and prayer and we want to do our best to fulfill these five prayers again they are 50 in reward what we talk about we are talking about first when we hear thean we repeat thean we makeo as it should be
Done we make the intention to pray the Salah we go ahead and face the and then we perform the Salah to the best of our ability if you would like to go further and confect the Salah for us if you can and best practice it is strongly
Recommended to pray the prayers as well because Prophet Muhammad s he says that for the the no prayers if you have an imperfection in your actual prayer which is very typical sometimes we have things that just you know our minds go elsewhere when we pray it happens but if
You pray that in a PR prayer it makes up for that which you have missed in your F prior this is from the beauty of and it is for us as well this is our chance where we can get close to Allah subh and make du whether it is during s or whe
Whether it is before those are two good opportunities when we make du to Allah subhana you as us as a when we are in prayer are the closest to Allah subhana tala so the prayer was commanded for us in the heavens but the closest we are to Allah is when we in Subhan
Allah and this is where you as you have Allah speak to you by you reading the and the chapter that is after that when you’re reciting your in your prayers and then you speak to Allah inside your s and tell them about everything you want to in this world and
In herea make the you need this is for us Allah made it for us matter as of Burden but for us to seek comfort for us to seek comfort and to love Allah dra closer to always remember that this was made for us this Salah was commanded inside the
Heavens and this will be our pillar to go to heaven and that’s what separates us from those who don’t believe in Allah subhana so then with that again this month Ponder upon the story of read the first 18 or 20 a of they about when Allah subh went to and spoke to Allah
Subh read the opening verses of praised be Allah subh glorified be him who has taken Prophet mammam on during a portion of the night on a night Journey from to that which we had blessed and the neighboring areas around it Subhan so that we may show Prophet
Muhammad and all of us our Believers theid very Allah is the all hearing and the allseeing we ask Allah subh to make us from those who um who will ponder and reflect upon the um the stories and upon the lessons of we ask to make us from those who upon
The wasallam we ask Allah subhana to make us from those who will take our prayers more seriously and we ask Allah to give us the love of praying and to give us while we pray we ask Allah subh to make us from those who sincerely not
Just face our bodies to prayor but also face our souls and submit our horse to prayor we ask Allah subhana to make us from those who will be in the highest level of paradise we ask Allah subhana waala to make our sins forgiven we ask Allah subh to give great patience to the
People of philistine and to give cure to their hurt and injured and to give cure for those who have lost their loved ones many generations have been wiped out Allah subhana tala guidance to the right path and make him from those who will be victorious we ask Allah subhana to have
Forgiveness for our our Mar we ask Allah subhana tala to give aid for those who are in Kashmir for those who give aid for them in Philistine we ask Allah subhana tala for those in Congo and Haiti and many parts of the world in Burma and China and the
