00:00:23.040
alhamdulillah we know his videos from even though I don't really follow it that much

00:00:30.440
everybody's face and we know the Prophet peace be upon him said smile indeed it is
00:00:33.680
Sunnah it's a form of charity and alhamdulillah when you watch his videos
00:00:36.920
someone's smiling it gives you positivity you know sometimes unlike myself you
00:00:40.940
know I try my best to smile but please forgive me guys but the point is what we
00:00:44.540
love food we love someone you know looking at someone maybe smiling instead
00:00:47.840
of looking grumpy or whatever it may be but what is it that took away that smile
00:00:53.360
from Burak what was it brothers and sisters and indeed when I saw this video
00:00:58.160
firstly number one I was very sad to hear this number two it reminded me of the
00:01:03.680
hadith of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him which was narrated by Abu Hurayrah
00:01:06.680
brothers and sisters this is what's going on brother Burak is battling some say
00:01:12.800
it's a tumor or some kind of a cancer or tumor whatever it may be inshaAllah and he is
00:01:18.440
going through treatment the videos that you see on my right or left is of him in
00:01:21.800
hospital undergoing surgery the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him said verily
00:01:26.300
remember the destroyer of all pleasures which is what death death is what it is
00:01:33.500
I saw a recent video of his where he is not smiling now some say it was because of
00:01:37.880
the Turkish earthquake or whatever it may be but that smile was gone was that video
00:01:42.320
the same it wasn't and when a calamity hits brothers and sisters all of us when we
00:01:47.180
hear it our faces drop our hearts sink why brothers and sisters because we are too
00:01:53.780
invested in this life so invested Allah says in the Quran
00:01:57.080
you are too busy worldly affairs yeah and by the way this doesn't go to brother Burak
00:02:08.780
I'm just talking in general you are too busy worldly affairs with the worldly affairs until
00:02:13.880
you visit the graves and know surely you will know and know surely you will know Allah
00:02:20.680
with certainty that in a nutshell that day you're going to have sharp vision 2020 is
00:02:27.180
nothing you are going to have sharp vision you are going to know that subhanallah
00:02:32.380
everything Allah and his messenger said is right in front of my eyes and guess what
00:02:37.480
everybody on that day is going to be regretting even the believers why because
00:02:41.560
the believers are going to say I wish I did more for my Lord I wish I did more
00:02:45.180
whereas the disbelievers are going to regret for no avail I wish we believed it's too
00:02:51.080
late now brothers and sisters that smile that is taken from his face shows that the
00:02:56.480
videos are not the same we sometimes call it a calamity and Allah says in the Quran that
00:03:00.480
we send a smaller calamity to divert a bigger calamity the bigger calamity is you losing the
00:03:04.980
hereafter there is no bigger calamity that you can live than that now I want to ask you
00:03:09.580
guys a question if you had somebody come to you and say you are going to die in one
00:03:15.480
year's time in three months time in a week's time in four years time you know that in itself
00:03:22.220
the fact that you know exactly and maybe that's what Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala never says tells
00:03:26.160
us when we're going to die and when judgment day is because that will depress you more but
00:03:30.700
imagine if someone came and said to you you know what you're going to die in two years time
00:03:34.540
you would say you know what I'm sad that this is going to happen yes but I am happy that I can
00:03:43.400
prepare for my hereafter now I want to ask you guys a question Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala does that
00:03:48.180
not with a direct message not with someone coming and telling not the angels not wahi not ilham or
00:03:53.940
whatever not Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala coming and telling you but rather he does it through calamities
00:03:57.860
how cancer tumor this illness that illness and then that is a direct message as if Allah is saying
00:04:05.960
prepare for that day is that a calamity or a blessing wallahi billahi that is the biggest blessing
00:04:12.840
because on your maqiyama when you have done the good deeds and you have repented and done all of
00:04:17.200
these and not everyone is as lucky not everyone is lucky to get cancer or a disease that tells them no
00:04:21.700
no some people die suddenly suddenly subhanallah to remind us that not everybody's going to get this
00:04:27.620
glad tidings which we think is a calamity and that's what Allah says you might hate something
00:04:31.340
which is good for you which is what this calamity that comes in a form of a disease it's a direct
00:04:36.800
warning as if Allah is saying your time is running and as if it's a mercy of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
00:04:42.440
yes he sometimes inspires his servants like ibn al-qaym said from the salaf he calls from the salaf
00:04:49.940
that he said that Allah even inspires our du'a that he wants you know when you ask specific du'as
00:04:54.900
Allah is doing that so you can ask that thing because he wants to grant you it it's the same
00:04:59.560
way when Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala sends a calamity and makes you realize time is ticking just like
00:05:05.500
our beautiful brother who passed away Ali Banat he said gifted with cancer indeed it was a gift he
00:05:10.740
rectified his affairs he's got a charity that's a sadaqa jari from him wallahi he's inshaAllah now
00:05:15.600
probably happy smiling with his lord that calamity that you hate so much will be the biggest blessing
00:05:21.560
of your life may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala give shifaat of brother barak and bring a smile back
00:05:25.840
