Transcript

00:00:00.000 This woman has more tawakal in the burnt host theory than you ever have in Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
00:00:05.140 Isn't that shameful?
00:00:08.820 Just imagine the people back in the day when they would have to travel certain distances for months or even years.
00:00:14.400 What is one thing that they would carry with them?
00:00:16.880 The Quran.
00:00:17.940 Why?
00:00:18.520 Because they did not have it on their mobile devices or their gadgets.
00:00:21.680 Brothers and sisters, imagine you have a app, the Quran app,
00:00:24.980 which not only shows you how much rewards you get, but reminds you to read the Quran, gives you reminders.
00:00:31.940 Download the Quran app now and let it testify for you on your maqiyamah that you read it wherever you was.
00:00:38.260 As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, brothers and sisters and dear friends.
00:00:41.360 This is how we know Islam is the truth.
00:00:43.260 Wallahi, the fitrah comes out one way or another.
00:00:45.460 The video we're about to watch is literally shirk inactive, like inaction, literally.
00:00:50.320 If you listen to this woman very carefully, this is called the burnt toast theory.
00:00:55.180 And look what they derive out of the burnt toast theory,
00:00:58.460 which is actually attributes of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala and it ties back to Allah and the lack of tawheed.
00:01:02.540 Listen to it for yourself, inshallah.
00:01:03.860 Girl, listen, I need to tell you about burnt toast theory.
00:01:06.580 Because my life has gotten exponentially better once I started leaning into this.
00:01:12.060 And burnt toast theory is the idea that in the morning you burn your toast,
00:01:18.060 so you have to make a second piece of toast.
00:01:20.220 And as a result, you miss a terrible car accident.
00:01:23.860 It's the thought that every inconvenience that happens to you is really conspiring in your favor for your good
00:01:32.840 to almost give you a second chance at life.
00:01:35.560 So in your dating life, this looks like somebody ghosts you.
00:01:38.780 Great.
00:01:39.140 They've spared you from their inability to communicate.
00:01:41.560 Someone tells you they're just not feeling it.
00:01:43.340 Awesome.
00:01:43.960 Frees you up to find someone who is.
00:01:45.660 Someone cheats on you.
00:01:46.900 Fantastic.
00:01:47.760 They showed you who they truly were.
00:01:49.140 It was bound to come out eventually.
00:01:51.260 And trust me when I say that whatever stage it happens at is better than further down the road.
00:01:56.400 Everything is burnt toast.
00:01:57.660 So guys, what you saw there in a nutshell is basically what she's saying is the following.
00:02:01.020 So the burnt toast theory in a nutshell is if you wake up and from what she said is basically you intentionally burnt your toast.
00:02:06.520 I think that is not right.
00:02:07.940 But argument's sake, you woke up, you put toast, you're late to work, whatever it may be, and your toast got burnt.
00:02:12.260 So what they would do is obviously you have to redo another toast and that's going to do what?
00:02:17.420 Cause you to delay.
00:02:18.440 Now that delay is going to do what?
00:02:19.900 They are saying that don't be upset or mad about the toast being burnt because it could be that that is preventing you from maybe an accident or something bad happening.
00:02:29.360 Brothers and sisters, what does this remind you of?
00:02:31.200 Literally the qadr of Allah.
00:02:33.040 Literally tawakkal in Allah.
00:02:34.700 It's unbelievable.
00:02:36.180 In a nutshell, they are using, they're calling it the burnt toast theory and they are making, self-satisfying themselves by saying,
00:02:41.580 my toast got burnt, which means that something bad may have happened.
00:02:45.540 Therefore, I have tawakkal in the toast burning that it saved me.
00:02:49.040 So the universe played a role.
00:02:50.540 This is tawakkal in Allah.
00:02:52.260 We believe Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is the all-knowing.
00:02:54.600 He's the most wise.
00:02:55.640 And one of the six pillars of iman is what?
00:02:57.540 We believe in the qadr predestinely, the good and the bad.
00:03:00.520 Meaning, for example, if I really want to go and do something and for some odd reason there were obstacles happening or something happens,
00:03:05.960 we're like, okay, this might be a sign that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, the God Almighty, the true God is protecting me.
00:03:12.560 Not a toast, not a toast for that matter.
00:03:15.000 It's the one that created the toast.
00:03:16.640 It's the one that created the universe.
00:03:18.120 It's the one that created the heavens and the earth.
00:03:19.940 So as you can see, this is shirk in action.
00:03:22.460 And tawheed is what?
00:03:23.460 And I'm not blaming the woman because obviously they don't know better.
00:03:25.800 This is why we need Islam.
00:03:27.900 This is why tawheed is the biggest problem.
00:03:30.140 This is why shirk is so prevalent, brothers and sisters.
00:03:32.660 Because our trust is in you, Allah.
00:03:35.140 Look at the level the non-Muslims are going to, to make themselves content with life by believing in the burnt toast theory.
00:03:41.980 And you, my brother and sister, have Islam.
00:03:44.680 You, my brother and sister, have Allah.
00:03:46.320 You have his attributes, the true Lord that should be worshipped.
00:03:49.000 And guess what?
00:03:49.760 You don't even have this tawakul.
00:03:51.980 This woman has more tawakul in the burnt toast theory than you ever have in Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
00:03:57.000 Isn't that shameful?
00:03:58.020 And the same goes to me.
00:03:59.260 The same goes to me, brothers and sisters.
00:04:00.980 Have trust in Allah.
00:04:01.960 How many of us want to do something so bad?
00:04:04.140 We think it's good.
00:04:04.860 Allah says in the Quran, you might love something which is bad for you.
00:04:07.720 And you might hate something which is good for you.
00:04:09.540 And this is what Islam saves you from.
00:04:11.200 The fact that I came to Islam, the contentment I have in my heart.
00:04:14.500 Knowing that Allah has written everything.
00:04:16.780 As long as I do my salah and do what's fard on me.
00:04:19.660 Stay away from major sins.
00:04:20.700 Do my afkaat.
00:04:21.520 That when I walk out and something bad happens to me, it was written.
00:04:24.860 And it was the best thing that happened to me.
00:04:26.740 Because Allah is the all-knowing.
00:04:28.340 So ditch the burnt toast theory.
00:04:29.740 My dear sisters, non-Muslim sisters and brothers.
00:04:32.120 Come to Islam and have that connection with your Lord.
00:04:34.380 And have the peace of heart knowing everything is written.
00:04:37.000 Even that toast that is burnt, it is written by Allah, not by itself.
00:04:41.340 Till next time.
00:04:42.240 As-salamu alaykum.
00:04:43.300 Wa alaqatuh wa alaqatuh wa alaqatuh.
