get the difference between the one who
remembers Allah and the one who doesn't
remember Allah is like the dews between
the living and the dead so somebody can
be their bodies alive but their heart is
dead and just like the physical heart
dies the spiritual heart dies and just
like you can have physical diseases of
your art in fact one of the mysteries of
the heart in Western medicine is that
often is disease and there's no symptoms
it's very interesting in other words
they can have 90% blockage in our
cardiac arteries and they don't there's
no symptoms and suddenly they have a
heart attack and they didn't even know
it they say he was fine nothing was
wrong you hear that all the time so he
has a heart attack they say he was fine
in fact I just played tennis with him
yesterday he didn't even breathe heavy
he was in such good shape that's what
people say he was only 45 and he just
dropped dead because somebody can look
like they're in perfect health and their
heart is disease the same is true of the
spiritual heart somebody can look like
they're in perfect spiritual health and
their hearts disease
they don't even know it sometimes they
don't know what other people know like a
doctor if the doctor knows that the
doctor knows signs signs and symptoms
you have in medicine you have signs and
sin
sign the doctor can see them himself
symptoms they come from the patient the
difference in medicine you have signs
and you have symptoms Alamut and I
robbed the I robbed they have to tell
you what it is but the signs you can see
them yourself
somebody has yellow eyes they might not
know that they've got hepatitis but if a
doctor sees them they have yellow eyes
their jaundice and they're tired they're
exhausted their urine is yellow he knows
their livers disease he might not know
that because he doesn't haven't studied
medicine so the spiritual heart has
signs and symptoms as well there's signs
and symptoms and some people recognize
they're sick other people don't you can
meet people like bad Adam a lot of
people don't know they have bad edit
I'll give you an example
and I mean this is one of those things
you know local Liana Kalia anguillan SI
units say to your own eye
oh I remember other people have eyes too
in other words when you find fault in
people people can find the fault in you
but I just need you an example maybe you
benefit from this I was with a scholar
once and there was a student of that
person who'd studied with him this
scholar mentioned a line of poetry and
it was a difficult line and he asked
this student if he understood it or not
and I don't think he did but anyway he
said this person oh I heard that from
you last year that's just bad Adam you
know somebody tells you a story maybe
you did hear it from them last year
listen to maybe year you're a year older
maybe you're a year wiser maybe you'll
understand something in it you didn't
understand the first time at home you
know - that moment of failure the
believer never gets tired of goodness
how many times can you hear a hadith the
same hadith and you get a new meaning
out of it one of the things I have the
good fortune a long long time ago of
studying with he's one of the most
learned people I've ever mentioned
nicknamed chef a bigger wood sad
he was a party in the MRC ciliates he
was ahead of the McNamee Sharia and he
is 50 with the meaning of the word he
knows him amongst everything else I mean
he knows local out of the urban aha
he knows Quran dakara at 7:00
I mean mashallah is Baha ocean of
knowledge I remember I used to read
these things and I go tell him something
like a story and used to listen and say
hello my neat idea and I realized later
you know it was just my own maybe
enthusiasm whatever you know but later I
realized what impeccable adept he had
because sometimes you tell something
something say yeah I know that I heard
that before and you really did I know I
didn't say anything that he memorized he
could give me the commentary he could
tell me all the rhetorical subtleties of
that hadith or whatever even and that's
the way he is he's a deep you know he
has perfect Adam so there's a lot of
things about our nature we're not even
aware of and other people see it and we
don't see it
and that's why I mean we never acted
remotely the believer is the mirror of
his believer one thing Shakespeare says
in Macbeth that God has made it such
that we can only see our faces in
mirrors you can't look at your face
it's amazing the hidden if you think
about that you know Allah made it you
can't see your face unless you look in a
reflection and yet everybody who looks
at you can see your face they can see
the egg on your chin you can't see the
egg they go like this right those what
people do if they you know if you're
talking and some things they'll go like
this because you can't see it everybody
else can see it and you can't see it and
that's what the believer is he's a
reflection of his brother in other words
you see your faults in him
you see your fault in you that's a gift
of a movement and one of the things
about them what the kept it is that they
have too much pride so they get angry
they get angry and there's other people
Imam Shafi somebody asked him about the
Olano how he had such impeccable
character he said I always listen to my
detract
and I took to heart what they said and
then I worked to remove their criticisms
and another one said somebody asked them
how did you learn everything you know he
said I took every person I ever met as a
teacher either he was better than me and
I learned things to improve myself or he
was worse than me and I learned things
to avoid so everybody can teach you
something the rude person you remember
when somebody's being rude to you you
have to remember how what you're feeling
is how other people feel when you're
rude to them so that's the gift of
becoming aware that the heart needs help
is that you can't improve you can get
better and we have to we should get that
I mean we owe it to this Ummah to become
Odia I mean the Buddhists have a really
interesting thing they have these vows
and these monks have to say them every
single day they're really interesting to
have these four vows they vow to
overcome themselves every single day
they say today I vow to overcome myself
and it's an interesting thing if you
think about that you know that that you
make a conscious Val today I'm going to
do it I'm going to overcome myself and
then you have a vow to give up desire
every day today I'm going to give up
wanting dunya and then they have a vow
to master the sacred law because they
have a law you know that their books
they study but they make a vow every day
to master the sacred law before they die
and then the fourth one is they vow to
help other creatures and we have another
we have similar thing the idea another
but I just thought that was interesting
that idea that every day you recommit to
this work this is the real work I mean
once you realize that the only thing
benefits you on your mo p.m. is a sound
heart then we should get to work on the
heart because that our enough ingested e
Madhava edith allah has salah hal-g
tsukumo who were either faceted first of
the Gesu cool
as even with my late there's in the
breath a lump of flesh if it sound the
whole body sound and if it's corrupt the
whole body is corrupt isn't it's a heart
if you look at the world today every
single thing you see out there that's
wrong with the world emanates from a
human heart every war that's ever been
fought every act of cruelty that's ever
been perpetrated every act of injustice
every foul act every fest every act of
backbiting
every act of minimum every dissembling
Act every act of hypocrisy it all
emanated from a human heart and had that
heart and sound that act would have
manifested the only way the corruption
can come into the world is that it
emanates from corrupt hearts if the
heart is pure the actions of that person
are pure and if the hearts corrupt the
actions are corrupt so if you want to
rectify the world you have to rectify
human hearts because that's what's
destroying the world it's not fuels a
pollution the problem is not pollution
pollution is a symptom people say look
at all this waste it's a symptom all of
that's a symptom look at all these wars
why are people fighting those are all
symptoms and if you work on the symptoms
without going to the root causes then
you're just wasting your time if a
person suffering from malaria goes to a
physician the physician cannot treat him
until he moves out of the malarial swamp
because he's just going to get
reinfected you have to change the
conditions that are causing the disease
and the conditions in the world all the
corruption in the world it's all being
caused by unsound hearts and so that's
where you have to begin and that's why
the prophet sallallaahu and he was said
number
said enum Evaristo lilten NEMA macadam
and a flock
I was sent a perfect character where
does character emanate from sound hearts
sound hearts enum Evaristo Lea Tamina
macadam and asana I was only sent to
perfect noble character why was his
heart washed three times it was taken
out of his breast this a heart surgery
was performed on The Messenger of Allah
salon incident was light angels are
beings of life they cut open his breath
now they have laser Laser is just light
light is sterile life is not
contaminated so angels open up his
breath they put his heart into a cup
that had ice in it as you have ever
watched a heart surgery when they take
the heart out for a transplant they
bring the heart in it's in ice that's
what they do in a heart setback in
Mesilla sin the hadith they put it in a
bowl of ice that's what you have to do
because it slows down the metabolism of
the cells so that the heart doesn't die
and then they poured over it them them
now the other thing that they do they
bring in this there will be a guy with a
pitcher and they're pouring on it was
called cryonics fluid and it's fluid
that has electrolytes in it potassium
and natural muriaticum and they're
pouring it on to the heart because
there's metabolic exchanges going on so
they keep the heart alive by giving it
electrolytes and what an interesting
about limbs of water is it's got high
potassium and high sodium content what
they were doing was in accordance with
modern knowledge really divine surgeons
you know from Allah they knew what
they're doing I mean it's an amazing
thing because I was actually worked in a
cardiac unit so I dealt a lot with
cardiac surgery but I I just I just
struck me is so amazing when I when I
was studying that because I knew the
idea I just it's at home so the Prophet
Elisha his heart was pure
and that's why the people around him
their hearts were purified by being in
his company because that's what happened
if you keep company of good people you
become like good people you keep company
of bad people you come like that you one
things about recidivism in prison you
get people that become Muslim in prison
or they become Christian whatever they
go back and one of the horrible things
look at this in parole I don't know
about this kind of but in America in the
parole system in America the prisoner
has to go back to the place where he was
arrested it's total madness I mean they
put him right back in the in the
environment that destroyed him in the
first place so it's like sending
somebody who had malaria now he's been
treated you sent him back to the swamp
that's what they do it's a horrible
thing these people they really are
trying to get better a lot of them
actually really trying to get better and
then they go back all their friends are
there who haven't changed here's
somebody he's really changed he's become
Muslim he's praying he's fasting he's
got some spiritual strength suddenly he
finds himself back in the same and all
his old buddies come and he feels strong
and this one thinks he doesn't got a
reminder he said never trust the nufs if
you've fallen into disobedience in a
place never feel strong about going back
to it because he said that's how mafia
reoccurs is you get weak you go back and
you say no I'm not going to do it this
time you go back and you do it again so
this is what these people do they go
back to these places and then if you'll
say oh just come down and oh my god I'm
not doing crack anymore you know I gave
that up yeah that's okay you don't have
to do anything come on just come down
see you know Joey's down there and just
come down and see we'll hang out man you
know don't worry about it and he's we're
all right I don't want it you know he
that could be just friends and this and
that and goes down suddenly they're all
firing up the crack cocaine and they're
all so oh man I feel is really good come
on in just a one hit was it going to do
this was how it happened though this was
being repeated right now there's people
right now
this is I guarantee you the cycle starts
over again there was a human being
that's why you have to be in company
there's this interview of this monk a
son and the monk said they get up every
morning at 3 o'clock and start their
chanting and this guy said isn't that
difficult he said you know what if I had
to do it on my own I'd never be able to
do it but there's a hundred monks here
everybody gets help he said it's really
easy it's the same here
everybody's here is easy to go pray in
the Jamaat because everybody's going to
the Jamaat but then when you go back to
these praise you know you know feel a
little tired that's what happens but
here everybody go is the strength of
July in Nevada Angela a large with the
Jamaat and that's what we've lost we've
lost Jana when share company came from
Mauritania to America and he said that
he knows nobody smiled because it's one
of the things about Mauritania right she
did it but I he knows it he's out in the
desert they're all smiling right people
smile all the time because smiling is
actually part of sitri the problem so
license smiled all the time one of his
name is Alba Hawk the one who always
smiles he smile all the time one of
those lava said from the day I became
Muslim I never once saw the messenger
who likes as he smiled from the day he
became Muslim he said I never once saw
The Messenger of Allah except he smiled
it's actually simpler to smile if he's
he's selecting yeah is a human being you
smile he smiled you feel good he feels
gripping right and then you get these
people to a little moon
seriously you going to the message
everything is similar just try a little
harder on that one just a little harder
like Santa Monica me you'd only have to
seriously some people is like getting a
tooth out of them or something to get us
along with a smile but you said the
reason he thinks none of them smile is
because he said he noticed they do
everything alone so he said there they
have champagne with them they get
depressed because chiffon rides alone aa
Cuban Washington there's a hadith
somebody who rides alone is a chef on
and two of them to ship on three is
company you look at in the West
everybody in their cars alone and who
are they listening to chiffon on the
radio
it's amazing they're listening to ship
on their driving alone and then they go
to work and they sit behind a cubicle
alone they don't talk to anybody in
California they say send me an email
they don't even want to talk to him
physically they tell him send me an
email someone have a sign they just hold
up a sign they won't even say anything
share company when used in New York you
said the strangest thing he saw they
were in a all these cars a traffic jam
and he said he looked over and he saw a
car going this plate and it turned
around and then he said it stopped it
rolled down his window and it spoke to a
box and he said and in the box he said
condemn ovv son and posse yeah it spoke
to him in a clear tongue and then he
said the car drove up a little further
and he said some hands came out of a
window
with a white box and he said he gave him
money and they didn't say anything to
each other
he said he spoke to the box and he
didn't speak to the person it was a
fast-food restaurant but he was just
looking at it just seeing it for the
first time you see you grew up seeing
this thinking it's normal it's not
normal
if neurosis is a sickness this is
actually pathology and somebody insipid
I can see it for what it is but people
that are out of HIPAA they can't see it
that's when you say go to work and then
they go home they eat alone somebody if
you eat one person eat alone chef on
each with you and shift on just get
stronger and stronger the thing about
chef and people don't realize they Shep
I get strong with heedlessness he gets
weak with Vika the more hustla he gets
strong physically because he's eating if
you don't do dhikr when you eat like
save this meda he eats with you and he
gets fact he has energy because he's got
caloric strength but if you say this
mean that he can't eat he starts getting
weak and withers away if you save this
me on when you go into your house he
can't sleep with you and that's the to
chef as a Hadiya sound I think they met
one was weak the other was strong he
said what's the matter with you said I
have a horrible assignment every time he
eats he says bismillah when he sleeps he
said this was loud when he goes since
like this when I'm not getting any
strength he said oh I've got a good one
he never says this me now when he and I
eat us all I want he goes home I got a
nice bed to sleep in so now look at the
whole world
I mean Christians they used to say bless
us Lord for these gifts which we are
about to receive they used to say that
and then shall not benefit of them they
don't say that now just gobble it down
and so the shell thing are getting
bigger and bigger and now they can just
say their shell thing they actually can
say it now they come out really they
come out literally and say it like rock
bands they say that that we're Satan I
mean they literally announce it I saw
this guy he had a thing I worship Satan
literally on his t-shirt spiked hair and
everything
it said on his t-shirt I worship Satan
and this is happening in Christian land
they used to be so anyway that's the
subject in this book he basically wrote
it as a way of elevating your spiritual
state and taking tomoko it goes through
three stages the first day just ugly
the second stage is Talia and the
Thursday is kiss via and there's three
muffins the mom of the pass is Toba the
makan of the presence is this katana and
the maqam of the future is peak that's
what he said you have yesterday today
tomorrow yesterday the McConnell
yesterday a subset a lot is gone you
just say a stock settlement I wasted the
opportunity today makan don't waste out
to mr. farmer tomorrow if you do that
today tomorrow expect to have
realization if we blow it again today
it becomes the tomorrow today is
yesterday tomorrow today is yesterday so
if your tomorrow today which becomes you
yesterday is as bad as yesterday's today
just say I stopped it a lot and start
over again that's what you have to do
just start over so that's why he did
this so he begin
it's praised that I'm really that
America will have over hey mr. Webb he's
praising Allah super Hanuman to Anna

Santa Mesa in the law in reality there's
nothing but Allah and what that means is
there's no absolute you Jude there's no
losers and mukluks except Allah this is
resume okay yet it's like in mathematics
who's anybody
mathematician here you have a fraction I
learned this from a mathematician and
the fraction is x over infinity as a
fraction in mathematics X is for the
unknown over infinity now do you know
what that fraction is zero so any
fraction of infinity is zero which means
any existence alongside the existence of
a lot is cancelled out so what that
means is in reality there's not nothing
in existence except Allah subhanAllah
Dada he's at Wu Zhu's and mop-up
everything else is contingent it only
exists because Allah allows it to exist
and it exists in the knowledge of Allah
subhana WA Ta'ala so that's what he's
beginning by telling us he decide
letting you know there's no real
existence except Allah which does not
mean this is a lot don't confuse that
we're not pantheous it does not mean
that this is a lot we don't say that
we're not like Hindus or something like
that this is not asthma or broth amount
and it's also not Maya like the Hindus
call this Maya your illusion you don't
believe it's an illusion we don't
believe that it has real existence but
we'd also don't believe it's an illusion
it's reality is contingent reality it's
it's not permanent reality there's a
really important distinction all right
so don't confuse that there's people
that when they hear that they think oh
so this is all just an illusion no this
is real we are we exist for when you're
not an illusion I'm not a hologram
you're not a hologram we really exist
but we exist contingently and our
existence is only sustained by a loss of
and without espejo Mia he is at hey
Rafael in other words the existence of
the heavens and the earth is contingent
upon a la sky Oh Mia and if Allah
withdraws his sustaining support
existence disappears it's just gone it
came from nothing it goes back to
nothing

that's the definition an oppressor puts

so for instance if I take a book this is
my book I own this book and I burn it
you see me burn it you can't say I
oppressed my book because it's my
property I can do what I want with it
and that's the Shetty I says it's Haram
that's the hokum of Allah but as long as
it's a moba Act
there's too many mistakes in it so I'd
burn it for that reason whatever you

me burn a book you think why is he doing
that that's wrong to do that but I have

he thinks did everybody else's fault and
that's what tragedy is tragedy is that
the tragic hero never realizes he

they call it tragedy they'll never admit
I unroll they'll never say all the
droughts are because they're wrong
actions they'll never say all the the
terrible things happening the weather
global warming it's not mad cows disease
is mad Cowboys disease because it's not
the cows they didn't do that cows aren't
crazy they're herbivores that's actually
how they're classified this guy Linnaeus
right a man's name who classified
everything if you look up a cow in a
dictionary its classified under
herbivore now what's that mean herbivore
it eats plants it's a veggie everything
so why are they feeding it dead animals
why did they do that because it's really
cheap it's actually cheaper than than
grain feed the cows not mad it's the
human being that's feeding a herbivore
and making among on the board now what's
the omnivore of pig that's the
classification of a pig is an omnivore
it'll eat anything and it's Haram to eat
a lot made omnivores how long to eat but
he made herbivores how about to eat
because we won't get harmed if we eat
herbivores but we'll get harmed if we
eat omnivores it's a mad Cowboys disease
really that's what it is don't call it
mad cows because they'll have a pitch
against the film Keanu they gave us a
disease and said we were mad and they're
the ones that set us meat were
herbivores you created us herbivores we
would have done what we were created to
do had they never interfered in this
whole thing lny Allah says in home care
and then home abundance abhi
they're like cows no they're not then is
forested Rock okay
it's a rectifier they're even worse than
cows in other words a lot says they're
like cows but then he changes it and
this in rhetorical is for a reason he's
doing that he's saying they're like cows
then he said no they're not my cows
they're worse than cows because cows do
what they were created to do and humans
don't in the subsea email machine
famously said a cow runs away from
things that harm it and humans run to
them if a cow cease fire it runs the
other way they actually get scared of

he do that if he knows it's bad for and
that's why it is a schmuck you know the
expression run amok they come from Malay
language stomach is fat monk in Malay
because the Malays can't pronounce to
have so they chemic they mean a schmuck
stupid
so when when they say in English he's
run amok they mean he's run back month
doesn't really I'm not making that up
he's run amok so that's what they've all
done they've run amok they're come far

they're stupid because even animals
don't do that I'm always amazed you go

difficult especially in these days and
especially with certain people in
certain places in other words this is
much harder in America than it is for
instance in Yemen or in Mauritania you
go to the desert of mudita even here
look how easy it is easy to be Muslim
here they're not hard is easy to be
Muslim the worst thing you have to worry
about is if you're a Hannity a Chevy or
hum buddy there's a few dogs out there
that's that's about it other than that
it's very easy and something nobody's
backbiting I hope not
you shouldn't be backed by you don't
talk about people especially in these
places but anyplace but here you know
you're here for knowledge and things
like that but it should be easy it's<
