Whoever Obeys Allah, Everything Obeys Him
“Ibn al-Qayyim said: “Using one’s bodily organs in the obedience of Allah
strengthens them, while using them to disobey Allah weakens them.”
He dedicated an entire chapter to this, in his amazing book, ‘al-Fawa’id,‘ and
I had touched upon this in previous recorded lectures of mine. Even the jinn
and humans assist the believer if he obeys Allah. To make a long story short,
whoever obeys Allah, everything will obey him. And we informed you that, on the
day that ‘Uqbah bin Nafi’ wanted to establish the city of Qayrawan in the
middle of a thick jungle, he prayed two rak’ahs, and said: “O you viscous
beasts! O you wild animals! O you poisonous snakes! We are the army of
Muhammad! We want to establish ourselves here, so, leave!” Minutes later, all
of the animals in the area carried their offspring, and left them the jungle.
Whoever obeys Allah, everything obeys him! Everything!
On the day that they were in Persia (Iraq), one of the Companions – and the
Companions had never learned the Persian, Roman, or Assyrian languages – said
something in Persian, so, the Persian troops evacuated. He does not know
Persian, nor does he know Pashtu! So, when they ran away, the Companions caught
up with them, imprisoned them, and asked them: “Why did you run away?”
They replied: “We heard, from the tongue of your companion, that you had come
to eat us up, so, we ran away!”
The Companions asked the Companion who’d said this: “What did you say?”
He replied: “I have no idea.”
The Angels had spoken on his tongue! We had mentioned before that the Angels
would speak through the tongue of ‘Umar. An Angel, speaking in his name.
Because of this, sometimes, a devil will speak on the tongue of the human! If
he is angry, for example, Satan will speak on his tongue. Therefore, it is
advised that he perform ablution, in order to expell the Devil, because
“nothing puts out the Devil other than the water of ablution.”
So, the obedience of Allah…ya Salam! I am amazed at how humanity lives, my
brothers!”

Surah Isra 17 verse 80 Say: "O my Lord! let my entry be by the Gate of Truth
and Honor and likewise my exit by the Gate of Truth and Honor; and grant me
from Thy Presence an authority to aid (me)."
Ameen.

Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 2482 Narrated by AbuHurayrah (May Allah be pleased
with him)
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) used to say, " O Allah, grant me benefit
in what Thou hast taught me, teach me what will benefit me, and increase my
knowledge. Praise be to Allah in all circumstances. I seek refuge in Allah from
the state of those who go to Hell."
Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah transmitted it, Tirmidhi saying this is a tradition
whose isnad is gharib.
Transliteration:an Abi Hurairah (radiya Allahu anhu) qaal:
qaala Rasul Allah (salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam): "Allahumma infa'ni bima
'allamtani, wa allimni maa yanfa'oni wa zidni 'ilman, alhamdulillahi alaa kolli
haal, wa a'odtho billahi min haali ahlil naar."
