difficult this is
impossible fasting is a blessing from
the blessings of

us about this blessing that he made

righteous deeds and we hasten
towards righteous qualities and

Tock it's not the most famous podcaster
in the city no and it doesn't matter
brothers and sisters how we view a
person what matters is they standing

before Allah on the day of judgment and
Allah will bring them to account that is
applicable to the kings of the world and
the regular people of the world the
black and the white The Young and the
old males and females the rich and the
poor everyone is going to be brought to
account and Allah
said are those with the most piety look
and we're going to get to that we don't
want to keep repeating ourselves it's
not based upon the color of your skin
the color of your skin does not define
your standing before Allah whoever told
you that they lie to you and if you
believe that the white man is the devil
you need to purify your heart and if you
believe that the black man is inferior
to the white man you need to purify your
heart if you believe the Arab is better
than the non-arab just because he's an
Arab you need to purify your heart the
prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam he
told us there is no virtue to any of
them except through piety that's our
religion piety the attainment of piety
this is the month the month of
competition yes to better our ourselves

needs Pious people that's the only way
we're going to fight this gun
violence not through you know just some
superficial March where we're holding
hands walking down the street it's not
going to change anything and it hasn't
changed anything every year the problem
is getting
worse because we have to fight this
cursed culture of killing and we have to
replace it with what with piety it has
to to be cool to be Pious and we know
for the Believers it's cool but the
youth they have to understand that is
the correct way as
well so that you may become
Pious he
said also brothers and sisters
now the ultimate goal and we're going to
talk about that is as
well for the past there is
Paradise
guaranteed they are going to be the one
the ones that inherit may Allah bless us
all with
[Music]
Paradise he
said indeed
fasting is from the greatest means to
attain p
to become Pious or more
Pious because fasting involves
submitting to the command of Allah and
staying away from his
prohibitions
likewise
fasting it involves a TAA piety because
the fasting
person abandons what Allah has
forbidden he stays away from eating
drink drinking relations with the spouse
and the like of these things that the
soul inclines
towards and the fasting person why do
they do that they do they do it to draw
nearer to Allah
waala
hoping that them abandoning these things
they would attain the reward of
Allah this is part of
piety
likewise
fasting it involves
piety the fasting person trains himself
or
herself to be conscious of Allah that
Allah is watching them yes because you
know Allah is watching you so you stay
away from food and drink and anything
that is going to break the fast you stay
away from that which Allah has forbidden
and prohibited
generally that's training you to be
conscious of Allah be mindful that
Allah Allah sees
you the fasting
person abstains from that which his soul
desires even though they have the
ability to fulfill their desires but
they stay away from their desires why
because they know Allah sees
them
likewise fasting it restricts the
pathways the passageways of the devil
because the devil flows through the son
of Adam like
blood and
fasting it weakens the
penetration of the devil and the passage
of the
Shan and the servant commits less
sins
likewise the fasting person the majority
of the
time they perform many Good Deeds many
acts of obedience to
Allah acts of obedience to Allah are
from the characteristics of
piety so he continued he said
likewise the rich
person if they
taste the rich
person when they
experience and they taste the pain of
hunger this results in
them
assisting and helping the PO poor and
the
destitute this is also
from the characteristics of
piety
TAA remember brothers and sisters and
we'll close with this
point the companions of the messenger of
Allah sallallahu alaihi
wasallam the prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam he nurtured them upon the Quran
and the
Sunnah they were nurtured upon this
knowledge
in the
mass likewise they established their
prayers in the
mass they fasted the month of
Ramadan and this improved them increased
their faith their
im as individuals but it equipped them
and it trained them to go into the world
and
change the face of
society and the challeng is for all of
us
are we equipped to make that
change are we going to be like we should
be oh Allah make
us leaders for the
pious or are we going to be sheep that
we just follow are you going to be a
person that just follows the latest
trend on Tik Tock or
Instagram or you going to strive to be
from those people that Allah praises
many times in the book of Allah if you
went
away in this month the month of the
Quran when you're reading the Quran just
think about how many times Allah talks
about piety and the people of piety and
the reward for this piety in the duny in
this world and in the
Hereafter that is a question that we
have to ask
ourselves n yes this is a month of
training training the
soul treating the heart improving the
relationship with
Allah fulfilling the rights of Allah
getting all of that right and in
order also in addition to that
alhamdulillah
yes the person of TAA you will find that
he is the most beneficial of the people
to the people because they're not
selfish they do not bury their head in
the sand you know when everything else
around them is falling apart rather
alhamdulillah they try and make a change
bit by
bit we ask Allah subhana wa tala for
Success Allah make us from the pious as
you can see lot is at stake but look the
first verse piy this is what this month
is
about you who
believe fasting this month has being
made obligatory upon you like it was
made obligatory upon those who came
before you so that you may be
pious
