1 moment mention “Relationship with Allah”:

  1. and welcome back to Ramadan series your
  2. relationship with Allah subhah waala we
  3. covered the list of the categories of
  4. people whom Allah loves he stated
  5. clearly I love those types of people but
  6. Allah give us another list in the Quran
  7. I don't love these types of people so
  8. that is an enough hint for the believer
  9. when Allah says to him or to her I don't
  10. love these types of people that you make
  11. sure you are not one of these categories
  12. the first category is
  13. in Allah does not love
  14. transgressors people who go
  15. overboard and
  16. interestingly this context has been used
  17. in three different ayat this statement
  18. one aah in which
  19. allaha tells us do not make that which
  20. is permissible
  21. impermissible do not make something that
  22. is halalam just because you're excited
  23. and you want to make things you make
  24. sure that things are tight and what is
  25. halal and what is Haram is purely
  26. Allah's business he's the only one who
  27. can claim something permissible or not
  28. permissible so to go overboard that's
  29. extremism that's transgressing that's
  30. going overflowing
  31. overboard Allah does not love that it
  32. doesn't make Allah more happy of you if
  33. you make more things Haram that should
  34. be clear to every Muslim yet I met
  35. people in my life that this is not clear
  36. to them the second category that Allah
  37. gave us that Allah says when you make
  38. Dua make Dua
  39. with you know spell your heart out to
  40. Allah subhana tala be you know kind of
  41. hidden between you and Allah but don't
  42. go in the middle of the Masjid and start
  43. making very loud Dua obnoxiously
  44. disturbing everyone in the Masjid the
  45. prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam said
  46. you're not calling upon someone who is
  47. deaf or blind so when you ask Allah
  48. subhana tala lower your voice and ask
  49. Allah in general not in specifics Ya
  50. Allah please give me a house and it has
  51. to be four bedroomroom and three bath
  52. and two kitchens any this is not a Dua
  53. anymore
  54. so ask Allah in general and lower your
  55. voice and make it moderate that going
  56. overboard with Dua will not make Allah
  57. love you more but Dua itself is a and
  58. it's a bless thing to have my dear
  59. brothers and sisters Allah also said in
  60. the context of being attacked if someone
  61. attack you as an individual as a family
  62. as a country answer the attack with a
  63. similar force and do not go overboard
  64. I'm going to teach you a lesson in
  65. history that you will never forget for
  66. the rest of your life you and the next
  67. 10 Generations what's happening in GZA
  68. is an example of that as if there is no
  69. God there is no day of judgment people
  70. act thinking they will never be stopped
  71. and they will never pay the price they
  72. will pay the price if not in this world
  73. in the Hereafter my dear brothers and
  74. sisters Allah tells us you
  75. know do not transgress do not go
  76. overboard for Allah does not love those
  77. who go overboard this means that we have
  78. to tame our personality to be moderate
  79. people not too loose not too tight not
  80. too strict not too easy but rather
  81. follow the example of prophet Muhammad
  82. sallallahu alai am the next category
  83. that Allah told us that he does not love
  84. in the
  85. [Music]
  86. Quran that Allah does not love people
  87. who are ungrateful and you know very
  88. beautiful whosoever is not thankful to
  89. people he's not thankful to Allah you
  90. know when you help someone and help and
  91. they don't even show gratitude they
  92. can't even call you and say thank you
  93. you that's not of Islam you don't say oh
  94. you help me but Allah made you help me
  95. so I'm going to thank Allah and I'm not
  96. going to thank you that's not Islam
  97. that's not the way we think so Allah
  98. does not appreciate does not love
  99. someone who's ungrateful whether
  100. ungrateful to him subhah wa ta'ala or
  101. he's ungrateful to people around him who
  102. have sacrificed and helped him this is
  103. not a character that Allah likes to see
  104. in a Believer Allah likes to see us
  105. thank ful grateful appreciative
  106. considerate that we don't forget when
  107. someone helped us with something you
  108. know we will always remember and we will
  109. always try to pay it either back or pay
  110. it forward that's who we are as a
  111. Believer the third category of people
  112. that Allah mentioned in the Quran that
  113. he does not love
  114. is Allah does not love people who betray
  115. others deceive bels deiters people who
  116. are ready to switch on you stab you in
  117. the back betray you Allah does not love
  118. that and what a bad character to have as
  119. a Believer we Believers we are truthful
  120. honest we will stand with you whether
  121. you stood up with us or not we will
  122. always be thankful grateful but Allah
  123. does not love Alan the prophet
  124. sallallahu alaihi wasallam talked about
  125. this betrayal that the hypocrite has
  126. three characters
  127. either if he speaks he
  128. lies if he promises he breaks his
  129. promise and if he is entrusted with a
  130. trust he will betray the trust this is
  131. what Allah does not love this is one of
  132. the characteristics of the believer do
  133. not try to betray your spouse by
  134. cheating on them do not betray your boss
  135. at work if they're not looking you're
  136. not working do not betray your own

  140. that they will succeed with in life do
  141. not betray your responsibilities do not

  147. the believer may Allah Asel not make us
  148. from those who betray others from those
