now we go back thousands of years to the Arabian Deserts two different characters embark on a very dangerous Journey between life and death and environment with a temperature of 58 degrees Celsius during the day and minus 10 degrees at night on top of that the sandstorms [Music] it is already difficult to take a single step in the desert let alone walk through it but these are not the real dangers the real dangers are the bandits who block the road rob steal both of our passengers want to reach their destinations after a long journey first the proud passenger the egoistic passenger goes down the road they say to him take the name of a Chieftain when you encounter the bandits give the name of
the chief and say I'm under the protection of him is arrogant does not want to take the name of the chief and starts his journey because he knows that there are Bandits all over the desert he's not able to travel with a relaxed heart or Soul the bandits block his way and because he did not take the name of a Chieftain he becomes their beggar because he is humble second passenger says I can't take the chief's name these Bandits block his way too and when they do he says I'm traveling under the protection of such and such Chief the moment the bandits hear the name they show their respects they even help him and show him the way without blocking him or stealing from him so what does the word
Bismillah have to do with this story you are the traveler making the journey in that desert you're either on the humble side or the proud side so what is that desert that desert is the world we live in to take the name of a chief is in reality going under the protection of Allah and acting in his name we have two Bandits what are weaknesses and two are poverty we are so weak that we can even be defeated by a micro so what are our needs I need thousands of things just to live for a single second and every second thousands of my needs are being met so do you know what would happen if we the ones that have so many needs that are so weak didn't take the chief's name despite all of our
incapabilities Our Lives pass in fear and anxiety but if we take the name of the chief knowing that not even a leaf falls without his permission we would feel safe from everything we fear because they're all under the control of Allah now let's imagine ourselves in a cafe environment there are 500 people inside everybody is talking to each other and it's a noisy environment then someone with a police badge comes in and shouts loudly making everyone stand up all of you get into line and line up here one by one he shouts because he showed his badge people are following his orders now think of the wonders of Creation in the world from all the different kinds of flowers to all the different
kinds of fruits think of an orange or a berry a melon or a peach think of a gazelle a tiger or a crocodile or think of the entire world of insects that fly with Incredible aerodynamics or all of the wonders of creation when we look at all these wonders we can see that they do not act on their own behalf just like the policeman whose authority comes from the police force behind him who goes to the cafe commands people and puts them in line those wonders of creation are also able to do wonderful things by saying Bismillah they act in the name of Allah under the protection of him and therefore they get the manifestations of his infinite might behind them think about it a day old bee goes to a
flower far away and comes back without losing its way that means there's something incredible going on here there is magnificent architecture magnificent mathematics in the hexagon-shaped honeycomb honey is a miracle in and of itself or consider the amazing aerodynamics of those birds flight systems you know Science and Technology are developed because we are inspired by Nature all these wonders of existence wouldn't be able to do anything if they acted on their own behalf but because they act in the name of Allah wonderful things happen in the same way all things act in the name of almighty God for minute things like seeds and Grains there are huge trees on their heads they raise loads like
mountains that means all trees say in the name of God fill their hands from The Treasure of mercy and offer them to us all Gardens say in the name of God and become cauldrons from the kitchens of divine power in which are cooked numerous varieties of different foods all blessed animals like cows and hammels sheep and goats say in the name of God and produce Springs of milk from the abundance of Mercy folks don't just say milk and move on imagine what the milk turns into big of the thousands of different kinds of cheese that all have different flavors think about what other things this turns into from butter to milk desserts offering us a most delicate and Pure Food like the Water of Life in
the name of the provider the roots and rootlets softest silk of plants trees and grasses say in the name of God and Pierce and pass through hard rock and Earth how does it do this mentioning the name of God the name of the most merciful everything becomes subjected to them when it acts in the name of Allah everything becomes its servant now let's think about the wonders of creation again think about the peach they have wonderful aspects that appeal to our taste buds such as taste and smell you already know its benefits to our body are you aware of the fact that not only the world we live in was created to be suitable for our life but it was also created to be hospitable including the foods
we just mentioned and the expansion of your chest that occurs when you see a landscape or a waterfall all of your feelings or the smell of a Colombian coffee and the taste that it creates in your palate when you think about all this you say the world is not just a livable place it's also also a hospitable place now his Excellency media Zaman will connect the issue to a very interesting point since all things say in the name of God and bearing God's Bounties in God's name give them to us we too should say in the name of God we should give in the name of God and take in the name of God yes this phrase is a treasury so blessed that your infinite impotence and poverty bind you to an infinite
power and mercy it makes your impotence in poverty a most acceptable intercessor at the court of one all-powerful and compassionate the more a person realizes how helpless he is the better he understands the meaning of Bismillah he understands what his whole being that oh Allah I am weak because I am weak I need your power o Allah I am poor I am needy that is why I need you to be infinitely wealthy I need a power that gets rid of my weakness and a wealth that gets rid of my poverty so the human being's realization of his weakness and poverty brings the power of Allah to help why do we have to say Bismillah so many times during the day is a very good answer to this folks there are so many
reasons why we forget Allah in our social life school life our business life when a person gets used to saying Bismillah before starting everything he remembers the real provider so at the end of the Bismillah subject media Zaman says saying in the name of God at the start is Remembrance and all praise be to God at the end is thanks and perceiving and thinking of those bounties which are Priceless wonders of art being miracles of power of the unique and eternally besought one and Gifts of his Mercy is reflection maybe we have realized that until now we have consumed the blessings many times without paying any debt but Allah looks at the intentions folks now that we've learned this meaning
let's pay our debts we do not pay them now we may face a very serious debt in the Hereafter may Allah protect us
