All praise is due to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, blessings and salutations upon Muhammad

0:20.3

Salallahu Alaihi Wasallam. We ask Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala to bless every single one of us and to grant us goodness, I mean.

0:30.7

We commence by asking Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala to give us every reason to smile.

0:37.2

For definitely smiling is an act of worship. The Hadith of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, the Hadith of

0:43.5

Rasulullah Salallahu Alaihi Wasallam and definitely that message is from Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala

0:49.2

to smile is an act of charity and that itself would mean that it helps us even psychologically.

and they called out to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala when they were in need. So the lesson is for us

2:06.0

as well when we are in need, we obviously call out to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. The messengers

2:12.1

did not lose hope and they finally achieved whatever they were calling out to Allah for. If we do

2:18.0

not lose hope, believe me, we will achieve what Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala has written for us in

2:23.5

shah Allah. At times because we are weak, we ask for things that are detrimental for our very
