[SPEAKER_00]: Quantum physicists are telling you that the dunya is a projection, it's a type of simulation. [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of Hanoatahala revealed four things and concealed four things. [SPEAKER_00]: A lot created the dunya to complete his commands and create a agenda to complete Arshahawat, which is written around.

[SPEAKER_00]: Your love is the one whom your heart first turns to in the time of need. [SPEAKER_00]: But we'll get straight to it. [SPEAKER_00]: Allah Subhanahu Ata'ala, my dear respected brothers and sisters and elders, respected scholars, Allah adhvara arba wa aqfa arba. [SPEAKER_00]: Allah Subhanahu Ata'ala revealed four things and concealed four things.

[SPEAKER_00]: Adhvara makhlu wa kaatu wa aqfa daatu. [SPEAKER_00]: Wa adhvara l-ajzad wa aqfa l-arwa. [SPEAKER_00]: and in this world, and in this world, and in this world, and in this world, in this world, in this world, in this world, in this world, in this world, in this world, [SPEAKER_00]: He revealed form, outward form, and He concealed spirit.

[SPEAKER_00]: He revealed the dunya, and He concealed akhirah, and He revealed the value of material things, and He concealed the value of righteous amal and deeds. [SPEAKER_00]: Assess who had the dunya al-Mushahada, [SPEAKER_00]: The essence of this world that Allah Subhanahu ta'ala created is Musha'ada, is perception, is one ability to perceive.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's also the foundation of Ahl al-Batril. [SPEAKER_00]: Farahun, Farahun, what does he say? [SPEAKER_00]: He says in the Quran, [SPEAKER_00]: Wahadi Hil Anharu Tedjiri Mintahti, ephela Tubbsirun. [SPEAKER_00]: He says, am I not the king of Egypt? [SPEAKER_00]: And these rivers run from beneath me, meaning I control agriculture, meaning an Arab-Bukum al-A'ala, I'm the one that feeds you.

[SPEAKER_00]: Ephela Tubbsirun, do you not perceive, do you not see? [SPEAKER_00]: But the basis of the people of Eman, [SPEAKER_00]: Israel. [SPEAKER_00]: All of those who believe in the unseen system of Allah, Subhanahu Wa Taala, because Allah says Ya'alamuna, Ya'alamuna vahiran min al-Hayati dunya, and them'an il-Akhirati Umrafilun.

[SPEAKER_00]: Those that are busy and caught up, [SPEAKER_00]: with the outwardly manifest of this world and their oblivious and heedless to the less palpable, to what's happening behind the scenes. [SPEAKER_00]: Because the reality, my dear respected brothers and sisters, is that we're here to be tested a le de Jalak al-Mauta al-Hayata lia bluacum [SPEAKER_00]: This zina, this filtered reality that we witness, was created as a test for this believer.

[SPEAKER_00]: In Jalna, ma'ala, or the zina, t'en lahah, l'ina blu'ahum to test them. [SPEAKER_00]: Who's gonna believe? [SPEAKER_00]: in what they see and who's going to believe in what Allah subhanahu ta'ala revealed and told him li'an naka huna fi dunyama baina matheri wal khabari bilaak li fi dunyama khatabarun because in this world between what you see and what you hear from the revelation kala la waqala rasul Allah with this mind in this dunya are being constantly tested [SPEAKER_00]: because one of the beautiful definitions I heard of Eman is takvibun, nadari, watas liqul, khabar.

[SPEAKER_00]: When what I see does not align with kallallah and kallah Rasulallah, I deny what I see and I affirm what Allah tells us. [SPEAKER_00]: This is the foundation of Eman. [SPEAKER_00]: When someone comes and takes the shahada, you tell him repeat after me, what do you say? [SPEAKER_00]: Asshadu, and la ilaha illa Allah, you begin with this.

[SPEAKER_00]: Now asshadu is to be bare witness, but it has another meaning. [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is the Aali Mollrahi bi wa shahada. [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is the knower of the unseen, the Reib, what's the opposite of Reib? [SPEAKER_00]: Musshahada. [SPEAKER_00]: When you bring to witnesses, they witness, they see, isn't it beautiful that the Kanyma of Eman, the first part of it has two shikks, two parts.

[SPEAKER_00]: One part, the first part begins with negation. [SPEAKER_00]: You say, ahshadu, everything I perceive, everything I witness and la ilaha. [SPEAKER_00]: It begins with Nephi, it begins with negation, and it's followed with affirmation, ashhadu and la ilaha illallah. [SPEAKER_00]: What I perceive with my own eyes, it's not really happening from there.

[SPEAKER_00]: You see, when we look out at the world, we're not getting reality, we're getting [SPEAKER_00]: You know, one of the famous quantum physicists today, he says, he says, you are not given a window through the senses. [SPEAKER_00]: You are not given a window unto reality. [SPEAKER_00]: You were given a headset to play the game of life.

[SPEAKER_00]: Because the reality is the mind seeing thinking, hearing, tasting, touching what we call perception, the five senses, plus thinking, [SPEAKER_00]: Is the virtual reality headset that's placed on the road? [SPEAKER_00]: Is Yallah tell us in the Qur'an he says, Aina Matualu Juhakum? [SPEAKER_00]: Fasem ma wajhullah, wherever you turn in the tafsir, wajhullah is the that, the essence of Allah.

[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know about you, but when I look around with the senses, I don't see Allah Subhanahu ta'ala. [SPEAKER_00]: I see khalkullah, I see the signs of Allah, the that of Allah is not to be witnessed with these eyes. [SPEAKER_00]: They cannot witness it. [SPEAKER_00]: But it says if Subhanallah, imagine, [SPEAKER_00]: When you look through, if I were to give you orange-tinted glasses and I say, look at the snow, you say the snow is orange.

[SPEAKER_00]: If I give you green-tinted glasses and I tell you, look out at the snow, you say it's green. [SPEAKER_00]: You witness reality based on the limitations of the tools of perception. [SPEAKER_00]: So it's like this, Allah's infinite and Allah's eternal. [SPEAKER_00]: He's not bound by space and time.

[SPEAKER_00]: He's the creator of space time. [SPEAKER_00]: But it seems like Subhanallah and this is what quantum physicists are reaching to today. [SPEAKER_00]: It's fully aligned with our dean. [SPEAKER_00]: We don't need them to prove Islam's is haqq. [SPEAKER_00]: But it's an interesting observation.

[SPEAKER_00]: that imagine that there are two lenses, they're basically what we call the mind. [SPEAKER_00]: Because the mind is not the container of perception. [SPEAKER_00]: It is perception and thinking, perceiving and thinking. [SPEAKER_00]: That's what the mind is. [SPEAKER_00]: And it's placed on top of the room, the spirit, when the spirit looks through this think of it as a virtual reality headset.

[SPEAKER_00]: It perceives eternity, or let's say infinity, is filtered through perception and appears a space. [SPEAKER_00]: An eternity, the other lens, eternity, which is the reality. [SPEAKER_00]: The attributes of God is that He's infinite, and He's eternal. [SPEAKER_00]: When you look through the lens of thinking thoughts, [SPEAKER_00]: eternity, eternity is actually filtered down as time, and hence the space time continuum.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's why quantum physicists are telling you the realizing dunya is a projection. [SPEAKER_00]: It's a type of simulation. [SPEAKER_00]: It's a broadcast. [SPEAKER_00]: Even Ajib, the Qur'an, if you read the Tafsir in the Tafsir, it says to spread Wabeth the Fihimari Jailin, kathir on Wani Sa'a.

[SPEAKER_00]: But the word Beth in the Arabic language, look it up. [SPEAKER_00]: It's not just you could say the meaning is to spread mail and fee mail across this dunya. [SPEAKER_00]: But [SPEAKER_00]: Bethamines, we say, we're looking at the live what broadcast, why, because you're here to be tested, are you going to believe in the esbeb or in the rub of esbeb?

[SPEAKER_00]: Eman is that noor that Allah describes in the Qur'an, may you tattadri mal, mal kitabu, al al iman, and may he not be a servant of the Qur'an, may he not be a servant of the Qur'an. [SPEAKER_00]: It's a type of norm that when it enters the heart, the heart's illuminated. [SPEAKER_00]: And now you don't see with the eye sight, you see with insight.

[SPEAKER_00]: He said the azafat nafsi anid dunya, no longer interested in this dunya. [SPEAKER_00]: The one main blocker that severs this nure is attachment to Mahlukh. [SPEAKER_00]: Wa ashar tuleili wa avmat tune heri, am up into hadjjud, I'm fasting my days. [SPEAKER_00]: Wa ka anni and duro illa aar shirab bi bari zah.

[SPEAKER_00]: And it's as if I see the throne of my Lord manifest. [SPEAKER_00]: This is not the basir, this is the basirah. [SPEAKER_00]: Because the north of basirah, the north of Eman is for the Haka-eq. [SPEAKER_00]: And the true Haka-eq are in the unseen system of Allah. [SPEAKER_00]: Al-Mau-Tuhak, Al-Jannah-Tuhak, Annah-Ruhak, Al-Sira-Tuhak.

[SPEAKER_00]: Rasulullah S.A.A.S.A. [SPEAKER_00]: Llamis telling us in the Hadith, what is reality? [SPEAKER_00]: This dunya is not Haka-eq. [SPEAKER_00]: It's a filtered version of reality. [SPEAKER_00]: It's an illusion. [SPEAKER_00]: It's a necessary illusion. [SPEAKER_00]: It's not a game to just have fun with, but you're gonna be tested.

[SPEAKER_00]: Are you gonna have yakin' on these things or are you gonna attach your heart to Allah because Allah sent his prophet to shift the awareness. [SPEAKER_00]: He didn't bring his prophet to make effort on the conditions of the people, but on the hearts of the people. [SPEAKER_00]: To change before He set the kibla of Salah, which didn't come till 10, 11, 13 years later, He set the direction of the kibla of the heart to Allah, min al-Makhluqi il al-Halqq, wa min ad-Dunya il al-Akhirah, wa min al-Asbaibi il al-Aamal, wa min turuk il agyari ilah tariqin nabi il-Mukhtar.

[SPEAKER_00]: Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. [SPEAKER_00]: He made an effort on the heart to shift the consciousness towards the unseen system. [SPEAKER_00]: Now the seeing visible system has a pull and the biggest idol of today is the nefs. [SPEAKER_00]: Anah, anah, you don't mean what Shaitan said. [SPEAKER_00]: You think, do you know who I'm talking to?

[SPEAKER_00]: Don't you know who I am? [SPEAKER_00]: We have to get over this and this nefs has attachments. [SPEAKER_00]: And it's attached to eight things. [SPEAKER_00]: Min Allahi, meaning the commands of Allah, and Rasulahi, the sunnah of Rasulillah, wa jihadin fi sabili, striving in the path of Allah, fatarabbasu, just you wait.

[SPEAKER_00]: Hat-yat-yallahu bi emri, wa Allahu la-yah di'lqaum al-Fasqin, Allah calls them Fusakh. [SPEAKER_00]: How do we sever this attachment in shā'a Llāhu al-Khā'a Llāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rāhu al-Rā [SPEAKER_00]: Alhamdulillah wa salatu wa salamu ala Rasulillah and Mabat.

[SPEAKER_00]: So what we want to understand here is that we're not against the worldly means. [SPEAKER_00]: This is a very important concept. [SPEAKER_00]: It's not that we want to leave the means. [SPEAKER_00]: We want to sever the attachment to the means. [SPEAKER_00]: Abdel Qayim has a beautiful saying.

[SPEAKER_00]: He says,سباب رحبانية. [SPEAKER_00]: while in Shiraalubi Hamin al-Qherj, and the Ertimad and Al-Aihamin al-Dakhiliahudiyah, and Waqala, Nef, Yuhah, Aayinul Iman, and Infaquhah, Aayinul Islam. [SPEAKER_00]: Such a beautiful saying. [SPEAKER_00]: He says, leaving Asbaab, turning your back to dunya is the way of the monasts, you know, the monks.

[SPEAKER_00]: We don't do this. [SPEAKER_00]: We're active in the dunya. [SPEAKER_00]: It's a means for a ahira. [SPEAKER_00]: It's mazraatul ahira. [SPEAKER_00]: It's the plowing field for the one Subhanallah, plants you a tree and paradise. [SPEAKER_00]: So there's a reason why we're here. [SPEAKER_00]: But Allah created the studio to complete his commands.

[SPEAKER_00]: And He created Jenna to complete Arshahawat, which switched it around. [SPEAKER_00]: We're now here fulfilling our desires. [SPEAKER_00]: Instead of fulfilling God's commands and I'm telling you, whoever, whoever is a slave, [SPEAKER_00]: to Allah in this world will be free in Ahirah in Jannah.

[SPEAKER_00]: But whoever is a slave to his desires in this world will be a slave to Allah in Jannah in the year after. [SPEAKER_00]: The command of Allah is above everything. [SPEAKER_00]: And he says, but busying yourself with the worldly means being distracted from the commands of Allah while relying on him internally.

[SPEAKER_00]: He says, this is the way of the Jews. [SPEAKER_00]: He says in the way of the believers, nephew had negating it, negating it doesn't mean leaving it. [SPEAKER_00]: In fact, he says in the way of the Muslims is to spend it. [SPEAKER_00]: Why spend it? [SPEAKER_00]: Because that's the proof of Eman.

[SPEAKER_00]: If you hoard onto it, then you don't really trust in Allah Subhanahu ta'ala do you. [SPEAKER_00]: Allah has a formula in the Qur'an, it's a jib, every time I read it. [SPEAKER_00]: And then he says, woman, Qudir Aalehi, herisqo, fayun fiqmi m'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a' [SPEAKER_00]: Two minus one equals one.

[SPEAKER_00]: I have two dollars. [SPEAKER_00]: I spend a dollar. [SPEAKER_00]: I'm left with a dollar. [SPEAKER_00]: But the system of Allah is two minus one equals three x, a z, and I give more. [SPEAKER_00]: It's a different system. [SPEAKER_00]: It's unseen. [SPEAKER_00]: You've got to believe in it.

[SPEAKER_00]: And the one who believes in it gives the believer has more yucleon on what Allah promises him and the treasures of Allah than what he has in his pocket. [SPEAKER_00]: You, your bank account could be filled with dollars before you click buy on Amazon, you know that one click buy. [SPEAKER_00]: Just practice to turn your heart to Allah first.

[SPEAKER_00]: Because the Olamat say your rub is the one whom your heart first turns to in the time of need. [SPEAKER_00]: And when I travel to Syria, Subhanallah with humanity, I think you no brother will eat. [SPEAKER_00]: I'm from Razza, from Palestine. [SPEAKER_00]: I'm a we've lost. [SPEAKER_00]: I say we've gained over 150 martyrs from our own family, directly in Razza, Hamdulillah, or Bilalameen.

[SPEAKER_00]: But I wanted to go to Razza, but we couldn't enter. [SPEAKER_00]: The borders were closed, and there was an opportunity to go to Syria, and I saw something beautiful. [SPEAKER_00]: What I saw is, Subhanallah, it's the less they have, [SPEAKER_00]: Because the farther, the less of this dunya to distract them, the closer they are to Allah Subhanahu ta'ala, the simplest of means, yet they're so generous.

[SPEAKER_00]: You're seeing the sefat of a true believer on the ground yet very little of the dunya. [SPEAKER_00]: And today we're drowning in dunya, but where are the qualities that are going to save us on the day? [SPEAKER_00]: Because there's so many groups in this world, but there's only two groups on the day of judgment, Phariocon philgenetic, or Phariocon phessayer.

[SPEAKER_00]: And who's going to make it in Jannat, Thummanunad Jiladina, takau, oneadar, bali, minafiha, jithiya. [SPEAKER_00]: You need takwa, you either have takwa or your valim, and takwa requires an effort, and I saw takwa there on the ground. [SPEAKER_00]: and Subhanallah, what really struck me about humanity.

[SPEAKER_00]: And it took me time to really choose the right organization I wanted to work with, because it's a very sensitive thing for me, was the plethora of projects that they were working with on the ground. [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, [SPEAKER_00]: restoring homes in Harasta, elderly homes, people that forgot who they are after they were taken out of Sidnaia, the prisons over there.

[SPEAKER_00]: They don't remember who they are, they're just sitting there. [SPEAKER_00]: People that can't afford taking care of their families, so they're just leaving them in the elderly homes simply because they can't take care of them. [SPEAKER_00]: The intellectually disabled and the schools that are running there, medicine banks, people are making $20 a month.

[SPEAKER_00]: His medication for his chronic disease, diabetes, or blood pressure, whatever it may be, is $20, $25 a month. [SPEAKER_00]: Humanity takes and covers these costs. [SPEAKER_00]: I was floored honestly at the work they were doing. [SPEAKER_00]: We spent an entire week there. [SPEAKER_00]: Me and another really big influencer there.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I just saw, first time, because I asked, well, did you raise money from this community? [SPEAKER_00]: He said, Mashallah, this is one of the most generous communities. [SPEAKER_00]: I said, Subhanallah, I bear witness. [SPEAKER_00]: to that money being put in a good place with my own eyes in Hamdulillah Rabbil Alani.

[SPEAKER_00]: So I encourage you, Shaitan always, the best Sadaqa comes from a person who doesn't want a f dalu sakati, a f dalu sadaqati juhdu l-mukil. [SPEAKER_00]: The one that he doesn't have, but he loves to give. [SPEAKER_00]: That one, and Allah is very, very big. [SPEAKER_00]: So I encourage you in Shah-Allah to give generously.

[SPEAKER_00]: They have a program for the Reza orphans that he's going to talk about. [SPEAKER_00]: Give viahi. [SPEAKER_00]: That's how you sever the connection between the Nefs and these Mahabhul-Bat, these beloved eight. [SPEAKER_00]: And that's how you refine that Nefs so that it's well connected to Rabbin Nas.
