Mohebban Fatemeh

In The Name of Allah

This week we will pospone the talk about sura Baghara and talk about the event of hajj.

Did you know that most of the prophits that we read about in the Quran are barried in Iraq such as…

• Adam
• Noah

———————————————————————————————

here is a story for you to enjoy…

Prophit Ibrahim was raised in Iraq but then Allah told him that he must move to Saudi Arabia. But moving to Saudi Arabia was only a test. When he got to Saudi, Allah told him to make a house. Which was the Kaabe. Then to go on top of a mountain and make a call that all humanity was suppoes to hear. Which was the azan.

…But then Ibrahim told Allah that his voice will not be heard be anyone. Allah just told him to do so, so he did. And sure enough there are thousands of Muslims that are making this same call today.

———————————————————————————————

There are 3 types of wajib. These are their names and meanings…

• Wajib Aayney – something that Allah commands on everyone
• Wajib Kaafee – something that Allah commands on everyone, at first, then once someone takes the action upon themselves it is not wajib in everyone else
• Wajib Fawrey – something that Allah commands on you when you meet a certain condition or state, it must also be done that year

———————————————————————————————

There are also 3 types of Hajj. These are who they are required to…

• Ifran – only to the people who live near Makke
• Gheeran – only to the people who live near Makke
• Tammato – only to the people who live far away from Makke

———————————————————————————————

Encouragments for Hajj (before)

• write will (the 4 types will follow)
• give haghol-nass
• give sadaghe (donations) – (doesn’t have to be big)
• on the day you are leaving preform a 2 rokkat prayer
• keep saying astaghforolaah
• keep saying labayk

The sadaghe boxes in Iran look like this picture. You can find these in some streets.

 ——-

The 4 types of “wills”

• Maaley – about money
• Maaley wal badaney  – about money and prayers
• Badaney – about prayers
• Hebel amal – any gift you want to give

———————————————————————————————

Imam Sajad said that out of the many people that go to Hajj, only a few hundreds will be accepted.

———————————————————————————————

When you see the Kaabe in real life for the first time in your life you get to have 3 wishes that will come true, unless Allah knows that it is not to be.

———————————————————————————————

What are the rewards of Hajj, if it is accepted? Well some of them are…

• that your neck will be freed from hellfire
• all your sin will leave you
• Allah will protect you , your family and money

In The Name of Allah

Some factors about the Quran being a miracle…

• it talks about the future
• it talks about the past
• you cannot find any disagreements within it
• everything you can think of is in it

———————————————————————————————

When the people who go to hell, go to hell, the “stones” that they kept for themselves will be burned with them.

“stones” is a metaphor.

———————————————————————————————

When the prophet say hell, he say that the majority of them were single

———————————————————————————————

The reason we don’t see heaven and hell is…

because of our actions!!!

In The Name of Allah

In today’s world the Quran is taken very lightly. Right? (not literaly)

Some people only…

1. memorize
2. read with a good voice
3. don’t touch it until Ramadan – Then it’s “what Quran?”
4. pay attention to the meaning

We should be doing all of these!!! With the exception of #3.

WHAT CAN WE DO TO KEEP QURAN IN OUR LIVES???

—       —      —      —      —      —      —      —      —      —      —      —      —      —

THE PEOPLE WHO DO NOT INCLUDE/PAY ATTENTION TO THE QURAN IN THEIR LIVES ARE…

• tyrants
• evil doers
• DISBELIVERS

——–♂-bullets from the sheik–not the summarizer——————————

The people at the prophet’stime said that the prophet wrote the Quran, but he didn’t. So on the behalf of Allah he challenged their word. He said that…

“If i a human wrote this book, then you write a book like this”  Could they?  No

Then the prophet said “A book is too much, write 10 suras”  Could they?  No

Then the prophet said “10 suras is too much, write 1 sura”  Could they?  No

Notice the pattern?

———————————————————————————————

Did you know that when Allah talks about the prophet he says “My servant”?

———————————————————————————————

Imam Ali says that he is proud that Allah is his lord, and that it is his honor! Did he say that he is proud that he has a car, a house, PhD, …?    NO!!!

———————————————————————————————

The prophet’s favorite name to be called is Abdolaah!

———————————————————————————————

How do you become a servant of Allah?  -1 word-  SUBMIT!!!

THE TRUE SERVANT OF ALLAH WANTS NOTHING BUT ALLAH!!!

In The Name of Allah 

Did you know that mercy is above justice. Thing is that you can’t force mercy on someone.

———————————————————————————————

Some of the signs of Imam Mahdi’s coming are…

• people are not upholding their promises
• an increase in oppression
• an increase in backbiting
• children are cursing at their parents
• men are dressing as women
• women are dressing as men
• hearts are filled with arrogance
• people are running away from scholars as sheep run away from wolves

WHERE DO YOU NOT SEE THIS???

 
Did you know that even listening to a backbite is haram.

———————————————————————————————

The army of Shaytan are working 24/7   

-I wonder how much they get paid.-Ha Ha-

———————————————————————————————

One of the first things Allah created was “aghl”

In The Name of Allah 

did you know that if you say astaghforillah 70 times at night Allah will…

• forgive most of the sins you did that day
• send you his blessings from heaven
• give you money
• give you a child that is special

In Islam the “perfect” that we all should be looking for is…Allah.

———————————————————————————————

Your job in life is to serve the lord who created, not just you, but everything.  Who is that lord?              -Allah

…Also the reason we exist is to serve Allah.

———————————————————————————————

Before anyone comes to existence we agree with Allah that…

• there is no god but Allah
• to bear witness that Mohammad (pbuh) is the messenger of Allah
• to bear witness that imam Ali is his successor

The first step of becoming a true servant of Allah is to “observe” your 5 daily prayers.

Before that you must close the doors of sin and open the doors of obedience.

Did you know that you cannot obtain taghwa wothout  being a true servant of Allah.

Imam Ali says that he is proud that Allah is his lord and that he is Allah’s servant.

Have you ever thought that forgetting is a blessing! —think about it!

———————————————————————————————

Did you know that Allah is making fun of the monafighs continually!?

T/F – When someone violates their right you are allowed to do something worse to them.  —  False!    The best thing you can do is forgive and forget. But if you have to do something, then you can only do the exact same thing to them.

———————————————————————————————

If monafighs make fun of moemeneen twice but Allah does it continually, then is there really justice between monafighs and Allah? According to Islam shouldn’t Allah only do it twice as well?!

IS ALLAH A JUST LORD?

…Well first lets define justice. Justice is to give each person what they individually deserve.   -   Now do you see?

————————————————————-——————————–

If you are a monafigh for 100 years, and sin that much, then repent, according to Islam you should be punished in hell for100 years.

The thing is…  Allah might keep you in hell forever!!!

imagine living in that, forever!!!

———————————————————————————————

On the day of judgment if you deserve a punishment, it will be determined by the effect of the sins you do!!!

———————————————————————————————

Did you know that some sins you do can impact an entire country!!!

———————————————————————————————

On the day of judgement, the moenemeen will be sitting and laughing at the monafighs burning in hell!!!  Better yet, that will be their much needed REVENGE!!!

———————————————————————————————

Every decision you have to make, hard or easy, is a test. Yet life itself is a test!

———————————————————————————————

When the monafighs made fun of the moemeneen they were making themselves blind.

This week we discussed aya 16

___________________________________________________________

Here is a question to think about…   What can you do to protect yourself from hellfire?    The answer is that if you can do all of these…

• continuously believe in Allah
• to believe in the holly prophet

• When you die, have yourself submitted to Allah (SWT) (Be a “Muslim”
• to struggle in the path of Allah with your money and what ever else Allah gave you

__________________________________________________________

The end of your life is the most important part of your life.  You could start out a momin and at the last moment of your life you can become a monafigh.

———————————————————————————————

With 1 action your Iman can leave you.

———————————————————————————————

There are 3 types of buying and selling with Allah.

1. you buy for $100 and he sells for $100
2. you buy for $100 and he sells for $120
3. you buy for $100 and he sells for $90

———————————————————————————————

Did you know that it is harram to buy or sell alcohol even to a  Non-Muslim!

———————————————————————————————

It is even haram to sell or buy dogs for pets, but it is okay to buy or sell hunting dogs.

———————————————————————————————

Did you know it is makrooh:

• to sell kafans (the stuff you rub to the deceased)
• to work as a person who slaughters animals

———————————————————————————————

There are 3 types of buying/selling. They are to…

1. pay now and take item now
2. pay now and pickup item later
3. take item now and pay later

———————————————————————————————

There are 4 things needed to complete a interaction. There needs to be …

1. the item
2. the buyer
3. the seller
4. a way to exchange the item

If 1 of them are not there it doesn’t work!

Get ready and put your thinking caps’ on. There is a lot of great stuff you won’t want to miss!!!

True of False : According to Islam, when some one violates your right you are allowed to do the same or less or not doing it back at all.  -  True  -

___________________________________________________________

___________________________________________________________

It looks like there is no justice between Allah and the monafigheen. Right? Monafighs make fun of the Moemineen 2 times but Allah makes fun of them continually. According to Islam if they make fun twice Allah should make fun twice. Is Allah just?

If a person is a monafigh that sinned for 100 years, and then repented, according to Islam shouldn’t his punishment only last for 100 years? Instead of 100 years Allah will keep you in hell forever. According to Islam that is not justice. Right?

And according to this how do we see that Allah is a just lord?

First define justice.   …   Justice is is to give each person what they singley ddeserve.     —  Now do you see?  —

So … that means monafighs can’t come out of hell ever.

___________________________________________________________

___________________________________________________________

On the day of judgement the punishment(s) that Allah gives you is based on each sin you do.

———————————————————————————————

Did you know that just 1 person’s sin can impact an entire country?

———————————————————————————————

On the day of judgement the moemenn will be sitting and laughing at the monafighs in hell. Better yet that will be their revenge!

———————————————————————————————

Every thing in life is a test. both hard and easy choices.

———————————————————————————————

Any sin that we do and we don’t repent for it there will be a punishment for it.

———————————————————————————————

Every word that the monafighs said that intended to make fun of the moemenn made their heart blind.

———————————————————————————————

See you next week @ 7:30!

In The Name of Allah

Guess what? … We have even more qualities of monafigheen to share!!!

———————————————————————————————

Hypocrisy is catagorized in a number of types of people. …

1. a person who acts as if they believe in Allah, but they don’t have faith

2. a person who has faith, but when it comes to their actions their faith is week. when he does his actions they are only to show off

3. a person who’s iman is week and they keep second guessing themselves

———————————————————————————————

Iman without action is useless

———————————————————————————————

Everything in life is “cause and effect”

———————————————————————————————

Once you become a monafigh you can’t change back

———————————————————————————————

In those days , all it took for you to be put in your grave was for your name to be Ali!

———————————————————————————————

2 of many ways to become a monafigh

· lying

· not paying your zakat and khoms

the safe you put the money in.

———————————————————————————————

If you are in the situation that because of your faith someone will be in danger it is wajib that you are in another faith!!!

Note from summarizer: this is very serious stuff!
