1:20Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala states in the
1:23Holy
1:24Quran in Surah verse 19
1:40Allah subhah wa ta'ala knows the
1:42treachery of the
1:44eye the Betrayal of the eye and he knows
1:49what the chests
1:54hide illuminate your hearts and Minds
1:58with a loud salaat
2:05by far one of the greatest senses that
2:08Allah subhah wa ta'ala has given us is
2:11the sense of seeing
2:14vision and one of the most
2:17complex body parts organs that we have
2:21is the human
2:23eye it's truly
2:25fascinating when you look at the
2:28technical specs of the human
2:32eye the power that Allah subhah wa
2:35ta'ala has placed in this very small
2:40organ every day we see on average 5,000
2:46marketing messages the amount of
2:49information that your eyes are taking in
2:53every single day is
2:56phenomenal and Allah has given the eye
2:59that that
3:00capacity to see with so much
3:04Clarity throughout your entire life you
3:08will see about 24 million
3:13images can you imagine 24 million
3:17images that's why 85% of the knowledge
3:22that we gain is through our
3:26eyes now when you look at the technical
3:29specification of this eye it's truly
3:32mindboggling the human eye can see at
3:37255 frames per second and it can even go
3:41up to 1,000 but at that speed you cannot
3:44discern it anymore it's not detectable
3:46to you
3:48anymore now what about the megapixels of
3:50the eye today when many of you are
3:54buying a new
3:55smartphone one of the specs that you
3:58check
4:00is the camera quality the
4:02megapixels so if you have the latest
4:05iPhone iPhone what 15
4:08Pro you've got a camera with 48
4:12megapixels and if you're a Samsung
4:15Galaxy fan and you have the s22 ultra
4:19that comes with a camera of 108
4:24megapixels can you guess how many
4:26megapixels the human eye is
4:30Allah subhah wa ta'ala has given you a
4:33beautiful camera right in your
4:37face that has
4:41576
4:43megapixels that is extremely complex
4:47extremely
4:48detailed the human eye has the
4:51capacity to see 10 million Hues 10
4:56million
4:57colors can you imagine
5:01if you bring dozens of
5:03supercomputers to do what the human eye
5:06can do it
5:08cannot there are two million parts to
5:11the human eye and they work together
5:15beautifully to give you all these
5:16amazing images that is the beauty of the
5:19creation of Allah subhah wa ta'ala now
5:22this complex organ what is it made of
5:26what did Allah subhana wa ta'ala create
5:28it from
5:30it's fascinating when you see how simple
5:33the ingredients are for the human eye
5:37IM 14 centuries ago informed us what the
5:42human eye is made of the Imam says in a
5:46beautiful
5:49Hadith be shocked at this human being be
5:53in awe at this human being be human
5:56being why
6:01this human being has the ability to see
6:04with
6:05fat 14 centuries
6:09ago taught us that the human eye is made
6:11of fat today scientists are able to
6:15confirm that the human eye is basically
6:18made of fat what type of fat the purest
6:22type of fats the fatty acids from the
6:24omega-3 family have you taken Omega-3
6:27supplements that's basically what your
6:29eyes are made of isn't that
6:33fascinating all these technical specs
6:36you're seeing with an eye that's made up
6:38of
6:39fat Subhan Allah that is the creation of
6:43Allah subhah wa ta'ala here you see the
6:46power of the almighty God some people
6:48are looking for miracles I want a
6:50miracle I want to know that God exists
6:53just look at your own
6:55eye these beautiful eyes are the windows
6:58to our souls and to to our
7:01hearts however this organ that Allah has
7:03given us has the capacity to sin has the
7:08capacity to cause destruction to pollute
7:11and contaminate the soul one of the
7:13common ways that people sin is through
7:16the eye when you look at inappropriate
7:19Haram content when you read Haram
7:23content that's a type of sin you have to
7:25be careful what you read sometimes what
7:28you read can influence your
7:31spirituality can create doubts in your
7:34mind or some people who read erotic
7:37novels that are not appropriate that
7:40affects your Purity that affects your
7:44spirituality sometimes with your eyes
7:46you can just give someone a dirty look
7:49and that could be
7:51sinful so it's very easy to sin with our
7:55eyes we need to remind ourselves that
7:59the eye is a gift that Allah subhana wa
8:02tala has blessed us
8:03with now while we can sin with our eyes
8:08at the same time we can worship Allah
8:11through our eyes and that is the point
8:14of our discussion this evening how can
8:17we worship Allah simply through our eyes
8:22there are a number of ways by which we
8:25can worship Allah through our eyes I
8:28would like to share them with with you
8:30and then we will shed some light on the
8:34beauty
8:38ofus according to one Hadith
8:44from he says that when a Believer looks

9:55the best ways to collectively improve
9:58the mental health of people in society
10:00is to look at one another with love and
10:04compassion it's as simple as that if you

10:26in mind look at one another with love
10:30with
10:32compassion it creates a better
10:34atmosphere in
10:36society I know some people who go
10:39through difficult life struggles who go
10:41through anxiety through depression if
10:43they go out in the community and they
10:45see someone looking at them with
10:47compassion that removes their worries
10:50that addresses their depression that's
10:53how powerful the look can be through
10:56these eyes you can worship Allah subhana

11:03with love and
11:05compassion that's one way to worship
11:08Allah subhah wa ta'ala Through Your
11:11Eyes the second way to use your eyes to
11:15worship Allah subhah wa taala is to look
11:18at the text of the Quran one Hadith from
11:22the Prophet Muhammad
11:29he
11:34States obviously when you recite the
11:36Quran that's an act of worship but the
11:38prophet says in this Hadith when you
11:40look at the mus when you look at the
11:42text of the Holy Quran even if you're
11:44not reciting that's an act
11:46of looking at the words of
11:49Allah spiritually purifies you it
11:53interacts with your soul because these
11:54are the words of Allah sometimes if you
11:57feel a bit down you feel feel depressed
12:00something is bugging you you're going
12:02through difficult times in your life my
12:04dear brothers and sisters just open the
12:06Quran and just look at it you don't have
12:09the energy to recite don't recite just
12:11look at it that is an act of it
12:14generates peace in your heart try
12:17it and if you love Allah subhah wa
12:20ta'ala as we claim we love Allah subhah
12:22wa ta'ala we should be in love with his
12:26words have you seen people from the
12:30previous generation or I'm I'm sure some
12:33of you have even seen the
12:35movies when a person would receive a
12:38letter from their loved one these days
12:41we don't write letters anymore when's
12:42the last time you wrote a letter I
12:44guarantee most of you have not written a
12:46letter to someone in the past year or
12:48maybe five or 10 years we don't write
12:51letters anymore but in the past if you
12:53wanted to communicate with a loved one
12:55you would send them a
12:57letter have you seen those scenes where
13:00the loved one gets the letter they look
13:03at the letter they look at the paper
13:04they look at the handwriting they cry
13:06they see it every day because they're in
13:09love if we love Allah subhana wa ta'ala
13:11look at the writing of the Quran the
13:14text of the Quran with love and
13:16compassion that is an act of you could
13:19be worshiping Allah subhah wa ta'ala
13:21simply by looking at the text of the
13:25Quran that's truly
13:27fascinating so so this is the second Way
13:31by which we can worship Allah subhanahu
13:33wa ta'ala through our
13:36eyes the Third Way To Worship Allah
13:39subhana tala Through The Eyes is by
13:41looking at the KA the Hadith from the
13:44prophet Sall

13:58that
14:00and Allah subhana taala will erase your
14:04sins the Kaa represents the house of God
14:08it's attributed to Allah and when you
14:10look at the Kaa you remember God's glory
14:13you remember all the prophets who went
14:16to the Kaa who glorified the Kaa who
14:19went there to sacrifice for the sake of
14:21Allah subhana wa taala it has a profound
14:24impact on you sometimes if you feel down

14:44the third way you can worship Allah
14:46subhah wa taala Through Your
14:48Eyes the fourth way to worship Allah
14:51subhanahu wa
14:53taala using your eyes and this is
14:56amongst the most important one of them
14:59is by looking at your parents with love
15:03and
15:07compassion the one who looks at his
15:10parents with
15:12compassion with and
15:16love Allah subhana tala will consider
15:20that an act of
15:22worship to the contrary if you give your
15:26parents the dirty look the bad look
15:34look if you look at your parents with
15:38hatred with
15:40disrespect what happens
15:44Allah even if they're the ones who
15:46wronged you your mom yelled at you for
15:49no reason you look at her with hatred
15:53with disrespect Allah subhah wa ta'ala
15:56will not accept your
16:02these are not my
16:05words even if our parents make a mistake
16:08it does not give me the right to
16:11disrespect them to give them that dirty
16:15look simply through your eyes you can
16:18worship Allah subhana wa tala by looking
16:20at your parents with
16:22compassion if sometimes you feel like
16:25you're low on your hassat and you need
16:28to stack up some
16:29just sit in front of mom in front of dad
16:32look at them with love and
16:34compassion Allah subhana tala will
16:37strengthen your heart you feel closer to
16:39your parents and do this by the way with
16:41all your family members it's an act
16:45of sometimes when you get into a fight
16:48with a sibling or when the husband
16:49fights with his wife the wife fights
16:51with her husband one very effective
16:54strategy to diffuse the hatred
16:59is simply by looking at each other with
17:03love imagine you're very disappointed in
17:06your wife you can't stand her you've had
17:10a bad
17:11argument do you want a shortcut to
17:14defuse that hatred just sit and look at
17:18your wife for 10 minutes she might think
17:20you're crazy but it's okay you can still
17:22do it look at her for 10 minutes just
17:25tell yourself she's a human being she's
17:28an Amana she's a trust that Allah
17:29subhana tala has entrusted me over just
17:32look at her with love for 10 minutes all
17:35the problems will be solved try it that
17:38look with the right intention solves
17:41most of our
17:43problems looking at parents with love
17:46and compassion is a great act of
17:49worship and looking at them in a
17:53disrespectful way is a major sin in the
17:56eyes of Allah subhana wa ta'ala Allah
17:58considers
18:00that being undutiful to your parents
18:03when you simply look at them
18:05negatively this is a very important
18:08reminder especially for the Youth how
18:11you look at your parents and how you
18:14speak to your parents so this is the
18:17fourth way we can worship Allah subhah
18:20wa taala through our
18:22eyes the fifth Way by which we can
18:25worship Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
18:27through our eyes is by looking at the
18:30sea looking at the
18:35ocean of course not the beach where
18:38people are swimming that's where Shan is
18:42nesting over there but looking at the
18:45ocean the grand beautiful blue ocean is
18:49an act of you may be wondering
18:53why what is the relationship between
18:56looking at the ocean and getting rewards
19:00from Allah subhana wa ta'ala and obeying
19:02Allah or worshiping Allah why is it an
19:05act
19:06of scientifically it has been proven
19:09that when you look at the Blue
19:13Sea the brain waves that your brain
19:17generates will go on a different
19:20frequency and that puts you in a mild
19:24meditative
19:26state that gives you peace and
19:30comfort and the color blue is associated
19:34with calmness that also gives you
19:37Assurance so sometimes if you're just
19:39feeling down if you feel depressed all
19:42you need to do is look at the beautiful
19:46magnificent sea or sometimes if you are
19:49at a loss of hope when you look at the
19:52sea it gives you hope how does it do so
19:56it gives you hope by reminding you
19:59there's a great power out there why are
20:02you losing hope yes you're going through
20:04a lot of difficulties but there is a
20:07higher power look at this ocean who
20:09created it do you know under this ocean
20:13there are millions and billions of God's
20:15creations and he's sustaining them there
20:19are fish at the bottom of the seaf Flor
20:21several miles down when there is
20:25absolutely no light it's pitch black
20:30darkness if we were to go that deep we'd
20:33implode there's so much pressure there
20:35there's no food there there's barely any
20:39Oxygen there but you see these fish
20:41Subhan Allah Allah is sustaining them
20:44they know where to get their sustenance
20:46from they know where to get their oxygen
20:48from that gives you hope that I have a
20:50Creator he has a system hold on to that
20:53hope and Allah subhana wa tala will
20:55spiritually Elevate you looking at at
20:58the ocean Subhan Allah gives you this
21:01powerful
21:04impact there is another aspect of the
21:06ocean that gives you hope and that is
21:10the constancy of the ocean when you
21:13stand before the world's oceans you feel
21:18a level of constancy you look at this
21:21ocean and you tell yourself this ocean
21:23has been there for millions of years
21:25it's been there
21:29there's a system that this ocean is
21:30based on this world is bigger than I
21:34think it is just because I'm going
21:37through a problem now it means I don't
21:39have hope in life anymore it's okay the
21:44world is not falling apart the universe
21:47is not falling apart because that's how
21:49we feel when we run into trouble when
21:51we're going through difficulty the first
21:54initial reaction that we experience is
21:56that the entire universe is falling
21:58apart it's not look at this ocean it's
22:00been there for millions of years and God
22:03knows how many more millions of years
22:04it's going to stay it's okay there's a
22:07Creator who has a
22:13system sometimes simply by looking at
22:16these scenes with the right
22:19intention you feel elevated spirituality
22:23you feel strength power hope so that's
22:27the fifth way to worship Allah subhana
22:30wa tala through your eyes that is by
22:33looking at the Sea by looking at the
22:35ocean it truly reminds you of the mighty
22:39power of Allah subhah wa ta'ala the
22:42sixth way to worship Allah subhana wa
22:45tala Through Your Eyes is by looking at
22:48theim at the scholar according to one
22:51Hadith that Abu narrates he says I heard
22:55this from the prophet sallallah alai Al
22:57the prophet told me
23:00if you attend a gathering a Magus and
23:04you benefit from a scholar you learn the
23:07knowledge
23:09of that is better than you for you than
23:14worshiping
23:15praying Salah 1,000
23:19years because if you pray without
23:22knowledge
23:23and that prayer is not that
23:26effective it's the that accounts how
23:29much do you know Allah how much do you
23:31know your Dean how much do you know your
23:33Quran how much do you know to navigate
23:36the challenges of
23:37life that's what's important this is the
23:41knowledge that's
23:43important so the prophet sallallahu alai
23:46Al is teaching Abu and teaching
23:49us that a session in which you learn is
23:53more valuable than any other Act
23:56of and then
23:59in oneith he was asked is it true
24:05that looking at the scholar is an act of
24:08worship the Imam said
24:10yes looking at the scholar is worship
24:13but with a condition any scholar no
24:16there's a condition the Imam says
24:19looking at the scholar who reminds you
24:22of
24:23Allah and the day of judgment who
24:26reminds you of your Dean who reminds you
24:28of who reminds you of honesty looking at
24:32that scholar is an act
24:34of but then the Imam comments and he
24:37says and if you look at a scholar who
24:39reminds you of
24:40dun who reminds you of
24:43materialism then that scholar looking at
24:46him is not that's F that's going to
24:49weaken your
24:50faith but indeed looking at someone an
24:54educator and by the way when we
24:56say it doesn't have to be someone in a
24:59religious attire that's one example of
25:02an Alim your father could be Alim your
25:05mother could be Alim if they know about
25:07religion your teacher you could have an
25:09elder in your community who truly has
25:13Insight who truly knows religion who
25:17knows about this life that is also
25:20aim looking at anyone who reminds you of
25:24your Dean who reminds you of Allah that
25:27is a Al
25:29and looking at the face of that person
25:33is because the spiritual energy you get
25:38from righteous people and people who
25:40have knowledge is positive energy my
25:43dear brothers and sisters let me ask you
25:44this question most of the
25:47faces you see day and
25:51night do you think they're generating
25:54positive energy towards you or negative
25:56energy
25:59when you watch
26:01movies
26:03documentaries you go on Netflix for 7
26:06hours and you binge on your favorite
26:10show are you getting positive energy
26:13from those faces are those faces who
26:16remind you of Allah and your dean and
26:19the or there faces who remind you of
26:22dun who remind you of Haram Haram
26:25relationships Haram this Haram that what
26:28do they remind you of most of these
26:29movies
26:31seriously yes there are some purposeful
26:33movies or films or documentaries but I
26:36guarantee you most of the shabab that's
26:38not what they're watching on
26:42Netflix when you look at a face that's
26:45not righteous that's not God-fearing
26:48believe me that spiritually weakens you
26:51over time because that is negative
26:53spiritual energy that is being emitted
26:56towards you just like looking at a
27:00scholar a righteous person is looking at
27:03those who are far from Allah subhah wa
27:05ta'ala will affect your
27:07Iman always surround yourself with
27:10righteous faces look at righteous faces
27:14that inspires you positively but
27:17unfortunately for a lot of us that's not
27:19what we're surrounding ourselves with so
27:23that is the sixth way to worship Allah
27:27subh the seventh one we have numerous
27:30hadiths that looking at the progeny of
27:34the Prophet Muhammad sah
27:40alai is an act of worship the Imam was
27:45asked even if the Imam was asked does
27:49that include only the imams and IM said
27:53no this is not only the IMs of any
27:57progeny of the
27:59any progeny of the Prophet sallallahu
28:00alaih a descendant of the Prophet
28:03sallallahu alaihi if you look at them
28:06honoring their
28:08grandfather is an act of but then makes
28:13a condition he says as long as they are
28:15righteous and on the path of the Prophet
28:17sallallah alaih looking at them
28:21is it's an act of worship because you
28:26remember sometimes when you want to REM
28:28remember someone who passed away you
28:30look at his family you look at his
28:32children you look at his
28:34grandchildren when you look at them with
28:36admiration for their grandfather that is
28:39an act of worship that Allah subhana T
28:42considers for
28:44you now imagine my dear brothers and
28:46sisters if we had the honor of looking
28:50at the face
28:52of imagine if you had the honor of
28:55looking at the face of IM
28:59if you had the honor of looking at the
29:01face of
29:05IM what an honor that would have
29:08been so these are seven ways to worship
29:11Allah subhana tala through your eyes at
29:14the same time through our eyes we have
29:19the tendency to disobey Allah and to
29:22commit sins sometimes with your eye you
29:24can commit sins even if you don't say
29:26anything or do anything
29:28I will share one example of that Allah
29:31mentions this in the Quran
29:34in verse
29:3619 Allah subh
29:43States Allah knows
29:46the the treachery the Betrayal of the
29:49eye what's the Betrayal of the eye here
29:52of the of the eyes here what's
29:58has a number of
30:00applications one common application is
30:03when you mock someone have you seen
30:06you're sitting amongst your friends
30:08someone passes by and you look at them
30:12in a disrespectful mocking way you make
30:15all your friends laugh at that person
30:17that's an that's a sinful act you think
30:21gossip backbiting is just through your
30:24tongue it could be through your
30:26gestures by looking at someone mockingly
30:30mocking them that's
30:32sinful
30:35that's another application example
30:40of is when you spy on someone when you
30:44Snoop on someone have you seen sometimes
30:47a person is using their phone and then
30:50the person sitting next to them their
30:51friend it could be a family member even
30:54a spouse they're trying to see what
30:56they're doing that's Haram my dear
30:57brothers and sisters that's you're
31:00betraying your fellow brother or sister
31:02through your eyes that's sinful you have
31:04to repent if you don't repent Allah will
31:07punish you for that who gave me the
31:10right to invade the privacy of others
31:13even if that person is your family or
31:16friend sometimes we're tempted if your
31:18friend leaves their phone and the
31:20password is off it's lock it's unlocked
31:23you want to go and check what they've
31:24been doing and that's Haram you have no
31:27no right to spy on other people and one
31:30of the problems today that we have is
31:32between
31:33spouses how many husbands spy on their
31:36wives and wives spy on their husbands
31:38that's all Haram that's a clear
31:40violation of the Holy Quran you think
31:42you own your spouse you can invade their
31:45privacy once there was a brother who
31:48would spy on his wife when he was
31:50confronted like yeah I need to know what
31:52she says to her
31:54mom what's your business what she says
31:56to her mom who appointed you as the
32:00lawyer or as the policeman to to monitor
32:03what your wife is saying to her
32:06mom that is an act of spying that is a
32:09major major sin in the eyes of Allah
32:13that's if you are seeing something that
32:16your wife do is doing if you're seeing
32:18something that your husband is doing no
32:20one gave Allah did not give us the right
32:22to spy on one another
32:25that's yes there's one
32:28exception is if your friend or family is
32:31in imminent
32:33danger for instance you know you have a
32:36sibling who's being brainwashed by bad
32:38friends they're taking him to a place to
32:40I don't know give him drugs at that
32:43point if you have evidence that your
32:46family is in imminent danger yes you can
32:49monitor them to save them you can check
32:52what they're up to to save them from
32:54imminent
32:55danger other than that it's Haram you
32:58have no right to spy on other people
33:00even if they're your family members you
33:02have no right to spy on them that's a
33:04violation of their privacy Allah has not
33:07authorized us to do
33:09that the Quran is very
33:11clear so just as these eyes can worship
33:15Allah subhah wa ta'ala these eyes can
33:17also commit
33:21sins this is a reminder for us on these
