BismiLlahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim:

(Qur’ān 09:119). ‘Yā ‘Ayyuhā l-Ladhīna ‘Āmanū t-Taqū l-Llaha Wa Kūnū Ma’a sSādiqīn’, ‘O you who have believed, fear Allāh and be with the truthful.’ Allāh ‘Azza waJalla says, “Be with the righteous people, be with the truthful ones.” Because righteous means people who know Allāh ﷻ and believe in Allāh ﷻ. They desire good and do good to people. They are religious, they’re people who accept the religion and accept Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Being with them is good for humanity.

Now we are living in the end of times; people have lost everything – belief, religion, faith, nothing remains. Everyone acts according to their own minds. Non-Muslims are different, and Muslims are different. Everyone follows their own way, saying, “This is what I want, this is what I think is good.” And they recommend it to others. After that, nothing becomes good. Without the pleasure of Allāh ﷻ, nothing is beneficial. Even if they were to turn the whole world into gold, it would still be of no use. The only benefit is the pleasure of Allāh ﷻ. When there is the pleasure of Allāh ﷻ, it will be good for you, for your family, and for the entire Ummah.

There is no benefit without the pleasure of Allāh ﷻ. Animals would be better than humans then. Because the level of animals is lower, but those creatures know Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, glorify Him ﷻ, and make shukr to Allāh ﷻ. How do we know this? Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is the Creator of everything, the One who informs. He ﷻ is Who told us. Therefore, that rank, their level is a certain level. We need to rise above that. If they don’t do that, they fall below the level of animals. They lose their humanity. Humanity is believing in Allāh ﷻ, making shukr to Allāh ﷻ. If they don’t do that but do evil, they fall even lower than the level of animals. May Allāh ﷻ protect us. These days we see everywhere, people have lost their humanity. May Allāh ﷻ guide them. May Allāh ﷻ protect humanity, in shā’a Llāh.

Wa min Allāhi t-Tawfīq. Al-Fātiḥa.
