The laws of Allahﷻ

Auto-generated transcript:In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. And peace and blessings be upon the honour of the prophets and messengers. Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and upon his companions. Peace be upon him, and upon his companions. From now on, my brothers and sisters, may Allah bless you. And make this whole trip a means of great khair and barakah and blessing for all of us, inshallah. I am saying this to you also in the way of a wasiyah, because I do not know if I will see you on such a trip again. So, remember this. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala made this world with some things easy and some things difficult. For example, to eat whatever you see, is easy. To control yourself, is difficult. To sleep till any time, is easy. To wake up for fajr, is difficult. To wake up for tahajjud, is even more difficult. To speak any way you like, you get angry, use all the foul language you heard anywhere, is easy. To control your anger, is difficult. To not read, to scroll your screen, you know, eight hours a day, nine hours a day, six hours a day, easy. Not to do that, instead, use the phone only and only to call people if you have to call them. Otherwise, do not use the phone, read actual books, which expand your mind, which increase your knowledge, which increase your knowledge. And, do not do that. So, to sit in one place, and do not exercise, and end up looking like a pregnant cow, is easy. To exercise, to break into a sweat, is difficult. And so on. I want you to, individually, I want you to make a list, as an exercise, I'm telling you, make a list of the easy and the difficult. Now, so Allah made this world like this. Things are easy, things are difficult. But Allah did one more thing. Behind every difficult thing, Allah put great benefit. And behind every easy thing, Allah put traps. If you don't move, and if you sit in one place and eat, you will not be able to do anything. You are looking at a wheelchair very early in your life. Now, sitting and eating in one place is easy. But spending the rest of your life in a wheelchair, is that easy? So ask yourself, is that what you want to do? You want to spend your life in a wheelchair? Then go, eat. Eat till like there is no tomorrow, because there will be no tomorrow. And then, you will be able to do anything. You will be able to do anything. You will be able to do anything. To grow up ignorant, easy. But once you grow up ignorant, what's going to happen to you once you become an adult? Who will give you a job? How will you start a business? What kind of family will you raise? You will have children who will look down on you. And they will say, this is my father? He doesn't even have a clean mouth. I mean, the man curses all the time. My father knows nothing. He doesn't even have a clean mouth. I mean, the man curses all the time. My father knows nothing. My father is an ignorant bum, which is what you will be if you don't read. Is that what you want for your... Is that your role model? You want to be a role model like that for your children? My father is my role model of how not to be. Is that what you want your children to say? Your choice. So when you scroll on the screen the whole time, that's what you're heading for. You're heading to become a father that your child will look down on. Okay? It's not enough to say, respect the father because he's your father. No, no, no, no, no. You have to become worthy of respect. That starts now. It doesn't start when you're 50 years old. Starts now. Right? So choose. Choose your hard. Choose your easy. And do that every single day. Allah created this world with what we call laws of physics, fundamental laws. The law of gravity, for example. Any object free falling in space is attracted towards the earth at an acceleration of 32 feet per second per second. This law of gravity applies on anything which is in free fall in space. Whether that thing is a meteor or whether that thing is solar dust or whether that thing is you jumping from a plane makes no difference. Allah's law of gravity applies. So now if I want to jump, high diving, skydiving, whatever, from a plane and I don't want to die a miserable death, slam into the earth, what must I do? I must understand how to deal with the law of gravity, right? How do you deal with the law of gravity in that situation? What do you do? What do you need? You need a parachute. You need a parachute. What did you say you? Land in the tree. Land in the tree. Yeah, good, good choice. I mean, think about that, right? Land in a tree. You will get a tree up some tender parts of yours. Seriously, I'm telling you, you know, this is, you want to make fun, brother. Go ahead, man. I didn't get my white beard by standing in the sun. Believe me. So the point I'm making is this is the time to make those choices. And Allah made these fundamental laws. Now the fundamental laws that Allah made with regard to the earth, we call them the laws of physics. Allah made the same fundamental laws or similar fundamental laws with regard to our lives. For example, one fundamental law that Allah made is that if you want success in life, you must be clear about your goal and you must stay focused on that goal and you must do consistent hard work for an insane amount of time to succeed. Three things are required. Focus on the goal. So for that, you must have a goal. Consistent hard work. Not one day I wake up and today I'm tired. No, no, no, no. My cheat day. There's no such cheat day. Consistent hard work for an insane amount of time. We are not talking here months. We are talking here in decades, not even in years. Right? Then you get success. Then people will look up to you. Then people will come to ask you for advice. Then people will pay you. Many times people come to me and they say, you know, you are a consultant, you've got a global practice, blah, blah, blah. Okay. You're a consultant. It's very simple. Get somebody to pay you to listen to you. That's it. Very simple. If somebody is willing to pay you to listen to you, you are a consultant. He's consulting you. He's paying. That's your business. He's paying you. You see when that comes easy? Try it. Try it. Consistent hard work. Consistent hard work. Consistent hard work. Consistent hard work. This is Allah made the law. I can't help it. This is the law for anyone. Muslim, non-Muslim, Muslim, whatever. Clear focus on the goal. Consistent high quality work for an insane amount of time. Staying in there. Showing up every day. What is the one word for that? Discipline. Discipline. You don't have discipline, you cannot succeed. You will fail. No matter how many excuses you make for yourself, you will fail. So when you go home, stand in front of a mirror. Look at yourself in the face and say, am I looking at a winner or am I looking at a loser? And guess what? Your choice. It won't happen by you calling yourself a winner. It will happen by choosing and saying, I want to be a winner and then working your butt off to become a winner. I'm not a winner. I'm a winner. Alright? Allah made these laws. Be very clear. Final point. Opportunities. Opportunities are inversely proportional to your age. Opportunities are inversely proportional to your age. At your age, the opportunities you have when you come to my age, you might, you might be left with one opportunity. opportunity. Might be, there's no guarantee to that. At your age, you've got 20, 30, 40 opportunities. Your choice, squander them, no problem. Or pick them, leverage your experience, grow yourself. But as you grow older, door shut. This was a door. Two days ago, this door opened. You came here. The sad part is, for most of you, somebody else paid your fees. So you have no pain for that. Right? If that money came out of your allowance, if you get an allowance, you're going to have to pay for it. So you have to pay for it. So you have to pay for it. And I think you tell their parents that, take it out of their allowance. If they get one. If they don't get one, do something. Take away their phone or something for, you know, one month. Feel the pain of it. So this was a door which opened. I can tell you one thing. I can tell you one thing for sure. All of you came here equal because you all had the same opportunity. But all of you are not going back equal because you did not take advantage of the opportunity. You did not take advantage of the opportunity. You did not take advantage of the opportunity equally. Some people took advantage of the opportunity. All power to you. Alhamdulillah. Others squandered it. Your choice. It is your life. Are you going to get such an opportunity again? Allah knows. Maybe, maybe not. The masjid may take people out. Who knows? The question is, will you be one of them? You don't have to die for that. I mean, you may not be here. You may travel somewhere. This happened. That happened. I'm not talking about you. InshaAllah, may Allah give you long and healthy life with Iman. Not that. But the opportunity may be there, but you will not be in a position to take advantage of that opportunity. So here was an opportunity. It was given to you. For most of you, it was handed to you on a platter, which I think was a big mistake in the first place. But anyway, your parents made it. They had some hope in you, saying that you will make something of it. Some of you did. Alhamdulillah. Good for you. Those of you who didn't, good for you. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know for someone. Or for a Long – г conseguir, for someone who doesn't have time. kleine electrocute 14 manuscripts Aren't you afraid?
