Summary

Shaykh Yasir Qadhi elaborates on the Islamic principle of Qadr and why we believe in Qadr. The belief of Qadr is based on 2 premises - firstly, Allah is in control of everything and the second is that Allah is Ar Rahman. These two pillars are mentioned in numerous verses of the Qur'an and in various Ahadith. There are many benefits to believe in Qadr: Our heart achieves a sense of peace and contentment. It leads to optimism and we look at the bright side and know that there is some wisdom in any difficulty upon you. It brings about a sense of generosity towards the orphans and the poor within ourselves. It makes the Muslim brave. No benefit or adversity can befall you except that Allah has willed for it to happen and not in the hands of anyone else. It brings a sense of Tawakkul and strong Iman within oneself.

0:00.0	This audio is brought to you by Muslim Central.com. Thank you. Allahu alah al-A lihihihihi, women wala,
0:22.5	on my bad.
0:23.6	Tonight is of course the 27th of Ramadan
0:26.1	and out of all of the Knights of Ramadan,
0:28.4	tonight is the night in which it is the highest possibility,
0:32.0	the greatest probability that it is Lailatul Kudder, the night of Kudar.
0:37.3	And yesterday we were talking about the reality of Kudar and today I want to continue since this
0:41.6	is the night of Kudar. Why do we believe in Kader and what is the benefit of believing in Kader?
0:47.7	The belief in Kader is based on two premises. If you understand these premises, everything will become clear. The first premise,
0:56.0	Allah Subhana Wataala is in control of everything. Nothing happens without Allah's knowledge is without Allah's determination,
1:04.7	without Allah's will, without Allah's kadar.
1:07.4	Nothing happens.
1:08.9	And the second is the belief that Allah Subhana Wataala is Rahman and Rahim,
1:15.0	that Allah is the all-wise, that Allah Subhana-Wata-A-Decrees what is best.
1:20.0	So when you know that Allah is in charge and then you know that Allah
1:25.6	Subhana is merciful, these two pillars put together should bring about the
1:31.4	true fruits of believing in Kader.
1:34.0	The one who is in charge cares about you more than your parents do.
1:38.0	The one who is in control loves you more than any other being.
1:43.0	As the Prophet, Allah O'Ali Sala said,
1:45.0	when he saw a woman on the battlefield frantically searching for her child,
1:49.0	he said, he said, do you ever think that this lady would harm her child, would throw her child into a fire, and they said, of course not a messenger of Allah.
