As-salamu alaykum. Alhamdulillahi Rabbil Alameen. Wa salatu wa salamu ala isharabu ila mbiya wal mursaleen. Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, peace be upon him and upon his family and companions. Tasleem and kaffir and kaffir. I want to ask a question. They said what is the cause of anxiety? Today is like an epidemic. Huge anxiety. Everybody has got tremendous anxiety. And their anxiety out of control becomes depression, becomes despair, all kinds of things. People lose working hours, they lose sleep. So they say what is the cause of anxiety and what is the cure? And they also said is anxiety the sign of a weak iman? So I want to say a couple of things to you. One is there is a Somebody asked this question to Sheikh Al-Husaymi R. Maudhaita. And he said anxiety is not necessarily a sign of weak iman. Anxiety is a sign that Allah SWT is testing you. When Allah SWT tests you, He puts you in a position where there is a perception of danger, perception of loss and so on and so forth. And you become anxious. So therefore what must you do when Allah SWT tests, Allah SWT also helps. This is Sunnah of Allah. Allah SWT does not test meaning leave you and go and die. No. If Allah tests you, He will also help you. But we have to ask for this help. So we ask Allah SWT for help. Right? We ask Allah for help. When Musa R. Isra, when Allah SWT said to him, go to Firaun. Isra will have Firaun. Isra will have Firaun. He has become rebellious. Go towards him, invite him to Islam. So what is Musa R. Isra's response? He's asking for help. He said I will go. He doesn't say I will not go. He said I will go. So therefore give me this. Over my heart. Give me understanding. Make it easy for me. Make this, I'm not making this order easy for me. Give me the words. Give me the expression. Untie the knot in my tongue. He's asking for help. We know from the Seerah of Rasulullah SAW, when they were awoken of Siddhi Khadil Anu and Rasulullah SAW were in the Ghar of Thaur, in the cave, and the Meccans were after them. And it was a wanted dead or alive situation. And they had put a bounty on the heads of Rasulullah SAW and awoken Siddhi Khadil Anu of 100 camels. It's a huge amount of money, right? Even today. In those days it was even more. And these people came and Allah SWT has told us, see even though the tracks to the cave and so on, these were obliterated because you know the sheep were raised on that and so on and so forth. But Allah SWT shows His Qudrat and His power. By allowing things to happen by external circumstances to remain the way they are until the end. And then Allah SWT changes conditions in a way where there's no doubt in your mind that this is only the intervention of Allah. For example, Ibrahim A.S. when Allah SWT decided to save Ibrahim A.S. from the fire, Allah did not put out the fire. Then that could be one way, put out the fire, big rain fall or something. Allah did not put out the fire, Allah SWT did not send Ibrahim A.S. and say, pick him up from the mid-air and take him, fly him somewhere. No. So as far as the people were concerned, Ibrahim A.S. they came to throw him into the fire, they threw him into the fire. They were successful. From their perspective we succeeded. We came here to burn him, we burnt him. But when he walked out of the fire they realized they could not burn him. But the same fire, the ropes with which he was tied, the ropes got burnt. But the skin of Ibrahim A.S. was safe. So Allah shows His Qudrat. So in this case of Ghara Saur, the horage came right to the Ghara. They came to the Ghara to the extent that Abu Bakr Asidu al-Ghada al-Anu looked up, he could see their feet. And he said, Ya Rasulullah, if they only look down, if they only look down they will see us. This is where Allah SWT shows His Qudrat. You will look down, you will look up, you will look right, you will look left, only and only if Allah SWT decrees. There is no looking down, up, what not by yourself.
