My dear beloved brothers and sisters, I ask Allah to make me and you from the people who listen and apply.
Speaker B
Tonight, inshallah, we will be discussing a very beautiful, amazing, and at the same time simple, extremely rewarding act of worship, and that is Istighfar, Istighfar.
Speaker B
My brothers and sisters, if we wear clothes for a day, two, three, then these clothes need to be washed.
Speaker B
We always wash our hands, we ourselves take constant showers, our home, we always clean it, our car and so on.
Speaker B
Similarly, all these actions that we do on a daily basis, all these words that we say on a daily basis also need to be washed.
Speaker B
How can these words and actions can be washed by Istighfar?
Speaker B
They can be cleansed by Istighfar.
Speaker B
We all need to be cleansed and cleaning our actions from all these faults.
Speaker B
From all these defects is only by Istighfar.
Speaker B
And Istighfar is seeking forgiveness from Allah Azzawajal, asking Allah to forgive us.
Speaker B
Subhanallah, even after we finish our Ibadat.
Speaker B
After we finish our Salah.
Speaker B
The first thing we say, Astaghfirullah, Astaghfirullah.
Speaker B
I was not committing a sin, I was praying, but because of all the shortcomings that might have taken place.
Speaker B
In that Salah, the distraction and all the other stuff.
Speaker B
I start immediately after Salah by saying Astaghfirullah.
Speaker B
And even Allah Subhanhu wa Ta'ala.
Speaker B
Told us that even when when we finish our Hajj.
Speaker B
When we finish the Hajj and we come down.
Speaker B
We say, uh, Istighfarullah.
Speaker B
We just finished Hajj, Subhanallah.
Speaker B
Istighfarullah.
Speaker B
My brothers and sisters.
Speaker B
The rewards of the rewards of Istighfar.
Speaker B
The rewards of asking for forgiveness are so many.
Speaker B
I will mention a few of them today.
Speaker B
Inshallah Ta'ala.
Speaker B
First, Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam.
Speaker B
He said, Tuba, for whom would have in his Sahifah Istighfarah Kathiran Tuba.
Speaker B
Some scholars said it's a tree in Jannah.
Speaker B
Huge, amazing, gorgeous tree in Jannah.
Speaker B
And some said it's glad tidings when you see that in a statement.
Speaker B
Glad tidings for who, Ya Rasulullah?
Speaker B
For the one on the Day of Judgement.
Speaker B
On the Day of Judgement, glad tidings for the one who will find a lot of Istighfar in his or her record.
Speaker B
Glad tidings from Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam.
Speaker B
In another narration.
Speaker B
Man ahaba an tusarahu sahifatahu falyukthir minal istighfar.
Speaker B
Whomsoever wants to be pleased by looking at his book.
Speaker B
On the Day of Judgement, let him, let her make a lot of Istighfar.
Speaker B
Subhanallah, so this is glad tidings for the one who make a lot of Istighfar.
Speaker B
And.
Speaker B
Another reward is that Allah Subhanhu wa Ta'ala told us in the Quran.
Speaker B
Wa ma kanallahu liyua'dhibahum wa anta fihim.
Speaker B
Allah Subhanhu wa Ta'ala is not gonna punish the people of Mecca.
Speaker B
While you, Ya Muhammad Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam, you are still among them.
Speaker B
And then he said, and then Rasulullah.
Speaker B
Wa ma kanallahu mua'dhibahum wa hum yastaghfirun.
Speaker B
Now Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam have passed.
Speaker B
He's not here anymore, so what is the other source of security?
Speaker B
Allah said, and Allah will not punish them, will not send upon them a severe punishment if they.
Speaker B
Are making Istighfar, so Istighfar.
Speaker B
Bring us safety, bring us security and protect us from.
Speaker B
From the Adab.
Speaker B
Also, my brothers and sisters.
Speaker B
Many of us are complaining that they have shortage in actual money.
Speaker B
Not just risk, because risk is risk is very comprehensive.
Speaker B
It includes a lot of stuff.
Speaker B
But Mal and the plural is Amwal.
Speaker B
Is specifically wealth, specifically money.
Speaker B
Many of us are complaining that they are having financial hardship.
Speaker B
Many people are complaining that they cannot have children.
Speaker B
Allah Subhanhu wa Ta'ala, Allah Azzawajal said in Surah Nuh.
Speaker B
Faqultu astaghfiru Nuh Alayhi Salam is telling his people.
Speaker B
Faqultu astaghfiru rabbakum innahu kana ghaffara.
Speaker B
Seek forgiveness from Allah, he is he named himself Al Ghaffar, Al Ghafur.
Speaker B
Ghafir al Dhanb.
Speaker B
The Almighty.
Speaker B
Allah named himself, he's the source of forgiveness, he's the only one.
Speaker B
Wa may yaghfirul dhunuba illallah.
Speaker B
Who forgives sins other than Allah?
Speaker B
Do you know anybody who forgives sins other than Allah?
Speaker B
Faqultu astaghfiru rabbakum innahu kana ghaffara yursilissamaa alaykum midrara.
Speaker B
If you are having a shortage of rain, make a lot of Istighfar, the rain will fall.
Speaker B
Yursilissamaa alaykum midrara wa yumdidkum bi amwalin wa banin wa yaj'al lakum jannat wa yaj'al lakum anhaara.
Speaker B
And Allah will provide you with Amwal.
Speaker B
With a lot of wealth.
Speaker B
With a lot of children.
Speaker B
And he will make it a reason for you to enter Jannah.
Speaker B
Allahu Akbar.
Speaker B
So my brother, my sister.
Speaker B
If you are suffering from financial hardship.
Speaker B
If you have been trying to have children for a long time and you are not able to.
Speaker B
Make a lot of Istighfar, this is a prescription from the one.
Speaker B
Who gives children.
Speaker B
From the one who bless us with our own children.
Speaker B
He's telling us how to bring that Neymar from Allah Azzawajal.
Speaker B
By making a lot of Istighfar.
Speaker B
Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam taught us how to make Istighfar.
Speaker B
In Rukoo and in Sujood, Aisha Radhiyallahu Anha, she said.
Speaker B
Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam used to say in his Rukoo.
Speaker B
After he finished Subhan Rabbi Al Azeem.
Speaker B
He used to say Subhanak Allahumma Rabbana wa bihamdik Allahumma aghfirli.
Speaker B
This Dua he used to say it in Rukoo.
Speaker B
And in Sujood, Subhanak Allahumma Rabbana wa bihamdik Allahumma forgive me.
Speaker B
After he glorify Allah.
Speaker B
He asks Allah Subhanhu wa Ta'ala.
Speaker B
To forgive him and Subhanallah.
Speaker B
Even if.
Speaker B
Sometimes we we do not have financial hardship, but we have.
Speaker B
Problems at home.
Speaker B
I have problems with my spouse.
Speaker B
I have problems with my children.
Speaker B
I have problems with my in-laws.
Speaker B
I have problems at work.
Speaker B
I have some tightness in my chest.
Speaker B
I have a lot of stress.
Speaker B
We are all going through this, right?
Speaker B
Again, the doctor of this Ummah.
Speaker B
Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam, he said.
Speaker B
Man lazimal istighfar.
Speaker B
Whosoever Lazima means he does it constantly.
Speaker B
She she do it all the time.
Speaker B
Man Lizma al Istighfar.
Speaker B
Jala Allah.
Speaker B
Lahum min kulli dhiqim kharjah wa min kulli hamin farjah.
Speaker B
Warzaqahu min haiz la yaha tithab.
Speaker B
Allahu Akbar.
Speaker B
Whomsoever does Istighfar constantly.
Speaker B
Allah Subhanhu wa Ta'ala will get him an exit from any.
Speaker B
Tightness from any hardship and he will give him.
Speaker B
A relieve from any grief.
Speaker B
Look at this.
Speaker B
And he will provide for him from sources he's never expected.
Speaker B
Ya Akhwan, this Kafala, this guarantee is coming from.
Speaker B
Rasulullah, not from a very famous, very rich, very big company.
Speaker B
This is from Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam.
Speaker B
Is giving you a guarantee.
Speaker B
If you make a lot of Istighfar.
Speaker B
Allah Subhanhu wa Ta'ala will relieve your stress.
Speaker B
Allah Subhanhu wa Ta'ala will.
Speaker B
Relieve your hardship and Allah will provide for you from sources you've never expected.
Speaker B
This is the promise of Rasulullah.
Speaker B
Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam.
Speaker B
Subhanallah.
Speaker B
Abu Bakr.
Speaker B
Radhiyallahu Anhu came to Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam, Abu Bakr.
Speaker B
Mubashar bil Jannah.
Speaker B
The father-in-law of Rasulullah.
Speaker B
First Khalifa in Islam.
Speaker B
The first Muslim.
Speaker B
Subhanallah.
Speaker B
He came to Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam and said, Ya.
Speaker B
Rasulullah, teach me a Dua I say in my Salah.
Speaker B
So he said, Ya Abu Bakr, say.
Speaker B
Allahumma inni dhalamtu nafsi dhulman kathiran.
Speaker B
Wa la yaghfirul dhunuba illa anta.
Speaker B
Faghfirli maghfiratan min indika warhamni.
Speaker B
Innaka antal Ghafurur Rahim.
Speaker B
Ya Allah.
Speaker B
Dua taught by Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam to Abu Bakr.
Speaker B
The best man after the prophets.
Speaker B
To say that he has wronged Abu Bakr, wronged himself.
Speaker B
A lot, what a what what do I say?
Speaker B
Ya Allah, I've wronged myself a lot.
Speaker B
I have a lot of sins, Ya Allah.
Speaker B
And please forgive me, no one forgives the sins except you.
Speaker B
Subhanallah.
Speaker B
If Abu Bakr is making this Dua, Ya Akhwan, and he wronged himself a lot.
Speaker B
So how about me and you, my brothers and sisters?
Speaker B
My brothers and sisters, the Shaitan wants to despair us from the mercy of Allah.
Speaker B
As a matter of fact, in the Hadith, it says that he, the Shaitan.
Speaker B
Swore to Allah by the glory of Allah.
Speaker B
And he said.
Speaker B
Wa izzatika wa jalalika, Ya Allah, by your honor, by your glory, I'm gonna keep.
Speaker B
Distracting.
Speaker B
The son of Adam, as long as they have their souls in them.
Speaker B
I'm gonna keep taking them astray as long as they are breathing.
Speaker B
So what did Allah answer?
Speaker B
Listen.
Speaker B
Listen, my brothers and sisters, he said.
Speaker B
Fabi izzati wa jalali, by my honor, Allah Subhanhu wa Ta'ala swearing.
Speaker B
By my honor, by my glory, I will keep forgiving them as long as they ask me for forgiveness.
Speaker B

Speaker B
Astaghfirullah, ask Allah Subhanhu wa Ta'ala for forgiveness.
Speaker B
It it it also brings.
Speaker B
Astaghfar brings the Rahma of Allah, which is the only key to Jannah.
Speaker B
Allah Subhanhu wa Ta'ala said.
Speaker B
Was astaghfirullah innallaha Ghafurur Rahim.
Speaker B
Lawla tastaghfirunallaha la'allakum turhamun.
Speaker B
Make Istighfar, Allah will give you Rahma.
Speaker B
Allahu Akbar.
Speaker B
My brothers and sisters.
Speaker B
The way we make Istighfar, it has to be slow.
Speaker B
Istighfarullah, Istighfarullah.
Speaker B
Or.
Speaker B
Istighfarullah al Adhim alladhi la ilaha illa Hu.
Speaker B
Al Hayyu al Qayyum wa atubu ilay.
Speaker B
This is another form of Istighfar.
Speaker B
But all of them.
Speaker B
You have to do them to them.
Speaker B
While you are moving your lips and also feeling them with your heart.
Speaker B
You are remembering all these sins that we have committed.
Speaker B
Or you could use the master of Istighfar.
Speaker B
The master of mankind called it the master of Istighfar.
Speaker B
Alhamdulillah.
Speaker B
Allahumma anta Rabbi la ilaha illa anta khalaqtani wa ana abduka wa ana ala ahdika wa wa'dika ma astata't.
Speaker B
A'udhu bika min sharri ma sana't, abu'u laka bi ni'matika alayya wa abu'u bi dhanbi.
Speaker B
Faghfirli fa innahu la yaghfirul dhunuba illa anta.
Speaker B
Just write master of Istighfar and you will find it.
Speaker B
Subhanallah.
Speaker B
My brothers and sisters.
Speaker B
The man whose guaranteed Jannah.
Speaker B
The man whose the doors of Jannah will not to open to anybody.
Speaker B
Before him, Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam.
Speaker B
The one, the man whom Allah said, your previous and future sins are forgiven.
Speaker B
If he had any.
Speaker B
Subhanallah, he doesn't have any sins.
Speaker B
And he said, I make Istighfar.
Speaker B
Hundred times a day.
Speaker B
How many times you make Istighfar?
Speaker B
Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam makes Istighfar.
Speaker B
A minimum of hundred times a day.
Speaker B
So my brothers and sisters.
Speaker B
Let's make an amount that I want to do every single day.
Speaker B
And no matter what.
Speaker B
I will not go less, but I might go more.
Speaker B
Let's assume you said, I'm gonna make Istighfar 300 times a day.
Speaker B
You will not sleep.
Speaker B
You have a headache.
Speaker B
You are busy.
Speaker B
You will not do anything, you will not go back to sleep until you finish those 300 per day.
Speaker B
And.
Speaker B
Whatever amount you can handle.
Speaker B
I'm just giving a number and you might do more.
Speaker B
But you promise yourself.
Speaker B
I will not do less than that amount that you assigned to yourself.
Speaker B
Make Istighfar for yourself.
Speaker B
Rabbi ghfirli.
Speaker B
Wa liwalidayya.
Speaker B
And don't forget your parents.
Speaker B
By making a lot of Dua for Allah to forgive them.
Speaker B
Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam.
Speaker B
He said that a person, he will be elevated in Jannah.
Speaker B
And he would be asking.
Speaker B
What is the reason for me being elevated?
Speaker B
Raised in status, they would say.
Speaker B
Your son, your daughter in Dunya are asking Allah to forgive you.
Speaker B
Allahu Akbar.
Speaker B
Ya Allah, forgive us.
Speaker B
Ya Allah.
Speaker B
We beg you to forgive us.
Speaker B
We beg you to forgive our parents.
Speaker B
We beg you to forgive our spouses.
Speaker B
We beg you to forgive all the people that love us.
Speaker B
And the people that we love.
Speaker B
Ya Allah, ighfir lil mu'minina wal mu'minat al ahya'i minhum.
Speaker B
