00:00This ayat, somebody gave me this ayat, someone from Rafa Itarikat, he said when you go to
00:13give a talk or you go to do something, especially in a new place, you recite this ayat.
00:22He describes two, I think we were talking about it before on this channel, I'm not sure,
00:31this one or another one, Sayyid Na Musa, he ordered the Bani Yisrael to enter into the
00:43Holy Land, to Canaan.
00:44And there was a very difficult people there, tough people, and the Bani Yisrael, they refused,
00:55they said to Musa, there's very tough people there, you go, we'll stay here, we'll stay
01:00and watch.
01:03And Musa sent to them two emissaries, two people that Allah had blessed, they say it was Caleb
01:12and Yahshua, Yahshua, and they said to those people, enter through the door and you'll be
01:23victorious.
01:25So that Rafai Sheikh gave me that ayat and said, recite it when you go to give a talk, when
01:31you go, Udkhulu alayhim ul-mab, being the important point.
01:37And I was looking at the tafsir for that ayat, and Sal Tastari, famous Sufi from the early
01:53days of Islam, Allah bless him.
01:58They asked him, what was that blessing?
02:00He said, two men among those who God had blessed, St. Namusha's emissaries to the Bani Yisrael
02:09were two that God had blessed them, Allah had blessed them.
02:12What was that blessing?
02:16He said, God blessed them with kauf and marakaba, fear and vigilance.
02:23Vigilance, because fear, concern, ham, and sorrow, huzn, increase one's good deeds, whereas
02:32exuberance, ashar, and arrogance, bata, increase one's misdeeds.
02:38As much as you're proud of yourself, it's not only for entering into Kana, whatever you
02:47enter into has to be for the sake of Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, to see yourself low, to see yourself
03:04in need, to see yourself humble, and to be watchful over your deeds.
03:13If you go in, there was a famous TV program, a comedy, Curb Your Enthusiasm, comedy show,
03:23like that, to bring yourself, to make yourself down, and to enter with fear, and to be watchful
03:38for Allah's tajalli, and Prophet's tajalli, and Sheikh's faid, holy lights, make you to be successful,
03:59and to be fool with yourself, make you to be unsuccessful.
04:02I was looking, I found up on my bookshelf upstairs, some early proof copies,
04:14some early proof copies of Mercy Oceans books,
04:28and I was looking, I was looking, what Mother Mother Sheik Nazeem was saying,
04:40and that a person,
04:58I heard Sheikh Mehmed saying the same Safra,
05:04Tarika tries to keep the way of Azimat.
05:11When I look at one of Sheikh's teachings, I have to be ashamed.
05:19Auliyah, like one of Sheikh Nazeem, and the Grand Sheikh, and Uptichain,
05:23they were keeping the way of Azimat, they left everything for the sake of Allah.
05:33He said, before you do something, or say something, or do something, ask first yourself,
05:39is this, is this going to be pleasing to my Lord, for my Lord's pleasure, or no?
05:48If the answer is yes, go ahead, if no, neither.
05:54Mostly, we're on the level of Ruqsa, Ruqsa opposite of Azimat, or easier way.
06:06We keep an easier way.
06:09But Auliyah, they were keeping the highest way.
06:13And the Qur'an says,
06:16Watavis sabina ma'anavi ilayhi.
06:18Follow those who left everything for me.
06:21That's how Malana Sheikh put it.
06:29What does he say?
06:30Follow the way of him who left everything for the sake of his Lord.
06:40This doesn't mean people who died.
06:42We must search for a man living with us and pursue him.
06:46This is the sign of such a man.
06:48Look, if he calls you to this world's enjoyment, don't follow.
06:52But if he calls you away from your ego to high character,
06:54to love of Allah and his prophet, and to the last day, follow him.
06:58Whoever decorates this dunya life, leave him.
07:03If in one's company one feels an increase in love for the Lord
07:06and the afterlife, keep him.
07:09Otherwise, they're only giving you more diseases.
07:12We're asking a cure.
07:14May Allah forgive us and bless us.
07:19Plans to be with them by heart, to our hearts.
07:23We can't always be physically with such a one.
07:26We ask to be with them more and more.
07:32And as much as we can do
07:34to...
07:38Allahumma salliya seyyidina muhamdulillah.
07:45Allahumma salliya seyyidina muhamdulillah.
07:48To be for him.
07:49To be for Allah and his prophets, Allah.
07:51Try to do for his sake.
07:58Try to keep the good characteristics.
08:00To look and see
08:03as those two
08:05emissaries of
08:07Sayyidina Musa
08:08said to Bani Yisra'il,
08:11they were blessed with
08:12khem and marakba.
08:15Fear, khawf, and marakba.
08:17they were watching
08:20to see
08:22the signs of their Lord

08:27the appearance
08:29of his

09:30and reach to another world
09:32and
