Cure to Laziness and Idleness in seeking knowledge- Ash Shinqitee

Amazing, Heart Softening lecture from Shaykh Muhammad Mukhtaar al-Shinqeeti. The shaykh discusses about the cure to laziness and idleness and gives us the importance of knowledge and its people.
Imaam al-Bukhaari and Imaam Muslim narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah (ra) that The Messenger of Allah (sallAllaahu `alayhi wa sallam) said,
"Allah, the Exalted, has teams of angels who go about on the roads seeking those who remember Allah. When they find some people remembering Allah they call to one another and say, `Come to what you are looking for;' and they surround them with their wings till the space between them and the lowest sky is fully covered. Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, asks them (although He is best informed about every thing): `What are my slave saying?' They say: `They are glorifying Your Tasbih, Tahmid, Takbir, Tamjid, (i.e., they were declaring Your Perfectness, praising, remembering the Greatness and Majesty of Allah).' He asks: `Have they seen Me?' They reply, `No, indeed, they have not seen You.' He asks: `How would they act if they were to see Me?' Thereupon they reply: `If they were to see You, they would engage more earnestly in worshipping and glorifying You and would extol You more.' He would say: `What do they beg of Me?' They say, `They beg You for Your Jannah.' Allah says, `Have they seen My Jannah?' They say, `No, our Rubb.' He says: `How would they act if they were to see My Jannah?' They reply, `Were they to see it, they would more intensely eager for it.' They (the angels) say, `They seek Your Protection.' He asks, `Against what do they seek My Protection?' They (the angels) say, `Our Rubb, from the fire of Hell.' (He, the Rubb) says, `Have they seen the fire of Hell?' They say, `No. By Your Honour, they have not seen it.' He says: `How would they act if they were to see My Fire?' They say: `If they were to see it, they would more earnest in being away from it and fearing it. They beg of Your forgiveness.' He says: `I call you to witness that I hereby grant pardon to them and confer upon them what they ask for; and grant them protection against what they seek protection from.' One of the angels says: `Our Rubb, there is amongst them such and such slave who does not belong to the assembly of those who are participating in Your remembrance. He passed by them and sat down with them.' He says: `I also grant him pardon because they are the people by virtue of whom their associates will not be unfortunate'.''

@sawsan Wa iyyaak. The actual arabic audio came with the Nasheed.

[@sawsan]

Barak Allahu feek. Just to mention brother, the background nasheed is very distracting and not really necessary.

[@hassan_2478]

Wow mashaallah. i am a taalib a ilm please remember me in your duas please

[@abuabdillah2005]

@aStrangertoDunya Sorry- Unfortunately I don't have it in text

[@TheGoldenGirl157]

@alithelin1234 : I hope somehow he could get to read it inshAllah (:

[@abuabdillah2005]

No, it refers to the knowledge of the sharee`ah of Allaah!

[@Nouri8885]

what i think he is asking is that when he wants to read quran and gain knowledge he feels too lazy to do it, i don't this he means his laziness is a result of reading quran. My advice is if we feel lazy and we make ourselves do it then it makes us want to read more allah guide me and you to do it I advise myself as well as you

[@TheGoldenGirl157]

continuation of the duaa : نعوذ بوجهكمن السمعة .. اللهم اجعلنا ممن خافك واتقاك و ابتغى رضاك فألهيته عن كل سمعة و رياء و ملئت قلبه بتقواك و خشيك فجعلته من الأصفياء .. اللهم خذ بنواصينا بما يرضيك عنا اللهم اجعل حظنا في هذا العلم أوفر الحظوظ .. اللهم اجعل حظنا في هذا العلم أوفر الحظوظ ... واجعل علمنا شافعا نافعا يوم لا ينفع مال ولا بنون ألا من أتاك بقلب سليم .. } I couldn't hear the last part. if I helped you in any way possible then please don't forget to include me in your prayers ! salam
