altavilla human, Jim Smith Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim al hamdu Lillah wa salatu salam ala rasulillah Allah Allah He was heavy on the Shakti sadri was in the Omri looked at the mitanni of the holy banner ad in academia husafell flt Hassan Ahmed Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah he albaraka. to everybody welcome to edges a day. Today we are going to be covering in sha Allah tada the 22nd Jews of the Quran, the 22nd Jews of the foreign includes surah 33 surah surah 34 surah, Saba 35, Surah felter, and a little bit of surah, 36 surah Yaseen Surya seen Of course, we will cover tomorrow because the little bit of it is, you know, going to be joined with the next day in chart, as you can

00:01:11--> 00:01:39

notice, the Jews are, you know, a, there are a way to divide up the Quran over the course into 30 parts essentially 30 equal parts essentially. And this is done really for the purpose of Ramadan, that a person is able to pace themselves to study and read the Quran in Ramadan in a more efficient manner. This class of this, this categorization is not,

00:01:40--> 00:02:17

or this breakdown of the Quran, Jews by Jews is not, you know, divinely inspired in any way the sutras are the ones that are divinely inspired. It's a way to organize Quran in manageable chunks, especially for our purposes in Ramadan. And that's why you see, like the sutras flow from one just to the other and whatnot, and we take the liberty of, you know, merging the surah from the previous just today, etc, etc, we just do that for the, for me for the, you know, to keep the theme of the surah and the narrative of the surah together, and that's one to point that out to you all in shahdara right now.

00:02:18--> 00:02:33

inshallah, tomorrow I will be sharing with you a survey, a survey that we'll be speaking about a what we will be doing afterwards, and what your thoughts are, the survey will be around, you know, we'll be doing

00:02:35--> 00:03:11

continuing continuing study of Colorado in a very similar manner, you know, not every day but maybe once a week, you know, a few weeks after even Sharla and this will continue on, you know, as a consistent program. The idea would be that in that survey, you would fill in you know, your preferred timings What do you think is a good time and you would also fill in things such as you know what topic right now or would sewer for example the study if it interests you ensure that gap with that said, let's get started and Charles's Give me one second, either.

00:03:15--> 00:03:17

Okay, let's get started now.

00:03:20--> 00:03:43

Surah Surah number 33 starts with our with a militia tone regime. Yeah. ubu tequila how volatile the IETF Irina will navigate in the lojack Anna Lehman hakima Oh Prophet, Fear Allah and do not obey the disbelievers and the immigrants. The Indeed Allah is all knowing or ever knowing and wise.

00:03:44--> 00:04:18

What you will notice about the surah is the the the endings of the surah are ending with an R sound. This is similar to for example, surah number 19. This is a you know, if you read the Quran, this is something you will notice in certain students, this is similar to slot 19. So 19 had the similar endings as well as the Korea Sophia Shafi. Yeah, similar to also surah number four, if you read it, you will notice something similar throughout the surah Kiba Kabira.

00:04:20--> 00:04:38

Marie ma rufa almost also all I add, and this way this is not known by the way in the rest of the surah of the Quran. Like for example, if you look at the previous surah it doesn't end this way. You know, when the moon is about eat up noon yesterday food, it has a

00:04:39--> 00:04:59

you know, different types of verbalized endings, but this one is very interesting. As it stands out, this rhythm stands out, and it's something for you to just make a note of what why you have a camera, follow that which has been revealed to you for your Lord. Indeed Allah is Ever with what you do acquainted. Is knows of

00:05:00--> 00:05:41

Fully well have you done what you do? Whatever call Allah and rely on upon Allah trust Allah. Look, if I will he work ILA and sufficient is Allah as a Disposer of affairs, whatever you need to be whenever it needs to get done. The one who will get it done is Allah is found Allah and he is sufficient in the sea. You don't need anybody else. You trust him and him alone. This, this surah speaks about addresses its theme here is the Prophet salallahu alaihe salam it addresses many things about the Prophet Salam and you will see this a constant narrative For example, we see the surah begin by addressing the Prophet Yeah, are you gonna be

00:05:42--> 00:05:52

so this is something that you will continually notice inshallah, in the surah a few points here the surah starts by this introduction, asking are

00:05:53--> 00:06:32

commanded the prophets as interfere Allah. This is not to say the profits are not fear Allah Of course, the prophet SAW lots of them had the most fear of a lot of anybody. Yet, this is a reminder and this is what you know, everybody is is in need of a reminder. And the prophet of Islam is being reminded here, you know, similarly, okay. The Prophet would not obey the believers and disbelievers. This is something that he doesn't do. You know, he obeys what Allah and His Messenger Allah reveals, and you know, he being the Messenger of Allah, He acts that revelation, but here is a reminder for him, because this surah speaks a lot about a lot about the political pressure that was put on the

00:06:32--> 00:06:43

province as a lump by the disbelievers this is really the disbelievers here is referring to the people of Makkah, okay. And the hypocrites which is referring to the

00:06:45--> 00:07:12

the people from within Medina who did not accept Islam, but they pretended to be Muslims, the political pressure they put on the prophets, Allah was absolutely unbearable, it would have would have been unbearable for you know, most people but the Prophet of Allah son was, you know, supported by Allah. So here it's referencing that what is that specifically talking about? This is specifically talking about the Battle of aza which is an iron number nine.

00:07:14--> 00:07:54

It talks about talks about, you know, on a policy it's, you know, talking about the Battle of iron number nine, yeah, you alladhina amanu naramata Allah He Aleykum in jet comm judon for also Allah, Allah himari How would you know delantero? How can Allahumma Tamil Luna Sera, or you will have believed remember the favor of a law upon you, when the armies came to attack you, and we sent upon them a wind and armies of angels, you did not see an ever is a lot of what you do seeing maybe you should change the transition back to why is it here? Yes. Right. And God sees all that you do it very good.

00:07:56--> 00:07:57

The

00:07:58--> 00:08:10

the this incident that's referred that's been referring to it's been referred to here, excuse me, is the Battle of the zap. And that's where the pseudo gets its name, Zeb. That's,

00:08:12--> 00:09:02

you know, it's the name of the army. Okay. Why is the army called the army of azab? Because it was comprised of a group of people and a various groups of people came, in fact that the Koran references the Syrian ir 20. I'll come back to the previous insr Yeah, so boonah xaba. They think that the companies have not yet withdrawn This is in reference to the the army that came to attack mcca in five, eight, after hedgerow. What was this? Why was this called the, the companies or the groups because this was not just Quraysh coming to attack, this was footage coming with hired mercenaries, they had hired for example, the tribe of water fun to come. And these were painters in

00:09:02--> 00:09:41

areas and their job was only one which is to kill, nothing, nothing else, they weren't really interested in anything else. This army was so massive that it was over 10,000 warriors camp. For the sake of comparison, the population of Medina was close to 10,000, maybe a little bit more than 10,000 meaning it's not just like they're outnumbering the army of the Muslims. They're outnumbering the Muslims themselves, the whole city themselves right. This is absolutely like unheard of. If you are going to lay a siege on a city, generally you are less than the city historically you will be less than the number of the population of that city.

00:09:43--> 00:09:54

But if you are more than the population of the city itself, you will just overrun the city. So this is what that that battle was. And that is the Battle of

00:09:58--> 00:09:59

now

00:10:00--> 00:10:05

Look at the severity that the prophets of Salaam and the Sahaba

00:10:06--> 00:10:15

experienced in this moment Okay, I don't know what died before you die means I don't know if the Muslim said that I don't know what it means either him

00:10:16--> 00:10:36

if you can point out where that is we can talk about Java Okay. Now remember when they came at you from above you and from below you and when eyes shifted in fear and hearts reached the throats and you assumed about a lot of various assumptions is Jochem info kikkoman as following

00:10:37--> 00:10:43

Okay, this is like imagine that you know the camera has zoomed out is like a drone shot

00:10:45--> 00:11:36

joke human focal moment is fundamental this army is surrounding the city from all sides of that from the top and from the bottom. Then imagine the camera zooms into the face of one of the Sahaba Okay, was it xalatan ever saw the eyes shifted in fear the eyes are the so much anxiety and stress and fear that the eyes are flickering in fear. This is what happens when someone's about to die actually like their eyes are not straight that kind of a wobbly game. But Bella out in Hollywood, the throat the hearts have reached the throat. Meaning is an expression in Arabic right the heart has reached a throat meaning you cannot even like you know swallow the spit in your mouth because of the fear and

00:11:36--> 00:12:00

anxiety you're experiencing. You can't even like breathe properly. What doesn't No no, no, no, no. And you assumed various assumptions about unlock this was a very very difficult moment. Allah says when it comes to money when I was on zeros insulin shaida the believers were tested and shaken with a severe shaking. Right zone Zilla was Allah is earthquake.

00:12:01--> 00:12:48

They were literally shook like an earthquake would shake them. That's how the Quran describes them. They were tested and pushed to the brink. But then as I told you, the surah began with Allah total caffeine, our Mana 13. The disbelievers and the hypocrites. This is the pressure that this believers are putting on the Muslims. They were putting the pressure of basically, the the survival was at stake their existence was at stake. Okay. And then the hypocrites put another type of pressure on the profits of them internally that was external pressure, the hypocrites internally undermining and compromising the Prophet Solomon and the believers in the Apollo moon, moon, I had the matoba. And

00:12:48--> 00:13:18

remember when the hypocrites said to those in whose hearts is a disease, excuse me, remember when the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease and this is a description of the hypocrites. And those have extremely weak faith that their hearts are diseased. Ma Arden Allahu wa rasuluh illa rura Allah and His Messenger did not promise us except delusion. All they have promised us is false. They promised this victory here we're on the brink of getting exterminated. Again,

00:13:19--> 00:13:28

this expression field will be muddled in their hearts is a disease. It speaks about to somebody who perhaps

00:13:29--> 00:14:18

has extremely weak faith. Perhaps they are someone who you know is a borderline when it comes to their emotions. This is borderline Muslim. And they have many doubts doing in their in their heart, and many things bother them game. But is he like it's not a problem to have stuff that it's not wrong to have questions. You can have questions, you can have concerns even, right but we can. Those are things that are healthy discussions. That's what the Quran highlights. For example, with Ibrahim, when he asked Allah Show me how you give life to the dead. This is not someone who's doubting but he wants to understand better this expression of those who have a disease in the heart.

00:14:18--> 00:14:59

This is like a person who is kind of looking for a reason to not believe anymore. Okay. That's what the Quran describes this state as and this heart disease is not like we have like, I don't know, whatever ails the physical beating heart then are going to have like heart attack or something. This is the spiritual heart. their spiritual heart is like at the risk of a heart attack the spiritual heart and that spiritual heart attack is them abandon their faith because of doubts that never got address because of questions that never they never saw the answers to, or because perhaps they were

00:15:00--> 00:15:44

Too consumed by other matters, and let these things simmer over time until it became too late. All these things are factors here. But what is seen is that in the moment of difficulty, the truth comes out the true colors are revealed. And then the moment of extreme difficult to hear the true colors are being revealed. Oh, this is just a lie. And they tried to make excuses. They said, Hey, people, yeah, layer three Bella Carmela comfort geroux there is no stability for you here. So return to your home. Yeah, yesterday, a slip of the tongue perhaps, or maybe something that was maybe hidden because yesterday was the name of the of the Medina before the Prophet arrived there. So this is

00:15:44--> 00:16:27

almost like they're signaling that Medina is about to go back to being what it was. And this Islam thing is gonna get wiped out soon. So all people if you want to save your lives and you know, you know, survive until that moment returns, go ahead and do so. Okay. And then a few of them were cowards. Not a few a party of them with all the, you know, funny human Humala. Men who wanna be yo Luna interview, Tara, they said, our houses aren't protected. amahi obiora EOD, Dona Illa Ferrara while they were not protected, they were not exposed. They only wanted to flee. They didn't want to stay stay with the army to protect the city. They are interested in running away from the battle so

00:16:27--> 00:16:36

panela and this is the hipparcos the intense pressure they put on the Prophet sauce on them from within they and they would say

00:16:38--> 00:17:20

they would they would incite others they were negative influences, right to others. The Quran tells them by the way, Lanyon for lamian falgu monferrato in for automatic mode. I will never will fleeing benefit you if you should flee from death or killing. If it's your time to die, you cannot see it. Okay. And even if you fleed for a little bit and you in survived, you know a battle you will live in disgrace what is the ultimate Aruna illa kalila and if you like where to you know, escape, you know, as a coward you would only live for a few more years and after that when that comes to you, you will die. Okay, so really what good is this? What you're, you're either going to die and you don't flee.

00:17:20--> 00:17:30

You know, you can run away from that, or you survive as a coward for a few more years, live in disgrace and then die eventually anyway. Why not live and die honorably?

00:17:32--> 00:18:13

Are the other moolah one more I will clean I mean, comala already knows the hinders among you. And those hypocrites who say to their brothers come to us and do not go to battle except for a few there negative influences, they will negatively influence this harbor. Imagine these people, the Sahaba will see the prophets on them their true believers, the best of the believers, and he had these kind of negative influences affected them adversely. How much would negative effects be for people like us surrounded by you know, naysayers surrounded by people who think everything is corrupt? So people think everything is broken, surrounded by you know, people who are what's the word?

00:18:15--> 00:18:42

conspiracy theorists how what kind of effect will that have on you and your rationality and your spirituality? We were brothers and sisters of those kinds of people. Not to say that they're munafo Poon that they're outright hypocrites but they're negative influences just like the hypocrites were. And look at how they are how they act was a promise a she had an article in disposed towards you

00:18:43--> 00:18:47

when for either general health or at home.

00:18:48--> 00:18:52

Or, you know, home gala the young lady middle mode.

00:18:54--> 00:18:57

She had an alikoum bill marajuana Gemma Lucia

00:18:58--> 00:18:59

Mingo media tune

00:19:01--> 00:19:06

what it says is that they are extremely

00:19:07--> 00:19:40

like they are they they help begrudgingly, okay. They're there, they're there. The reason why they're here helping you or problem is not because they believe in you. It's because they don't have a choice game. But then when they put under pressure when the battle you know, puts pressure on people that true colors are revealed further Jadhav, when you when danger comes, you see them, looking at you at rolling eyes, as if in their death throes about as if they're about to die

00:19:41--> 00:19:51

when there's a little bit of danger over adversity, but once the fear has passed away, sight out cuckoo mode what happened they would try to be like a

00:19:52--> 00:19:59

useful positive contributor society. No sir who come they they

00:20:00--> 00:20:10

They smite you with their tongues. sblc nothign Hey, Dad in Usha Hatton Hale, it says glip talking in the greed for wealth I'm not sure if that is

00:20:11--> 00:20:36

accurate, Salah cuckoo is be extremely critical. And they do that with their tongues that are like that from the word Heidi, which is like iron. their tongues are so severe, so tough that they, they these these people are so harsh in their criticism that they basically are like stabbing you with their words

00:20:38--> 00:21:25

like Alameda de la armello. Such people have no faith. So God has foiled their actions and this is indeed easy for Allah subhanaw taala. So this is the battle zap, you know, a glimpse of that Allah, Allah mentions that the pressure was unbearable that the disbelievers are putting on the Muslims and the pressure that and particularly the price on them and the hypocrites we're putting an unbearable pressure on the price of them from inside. Now that's unbearable. I'm saying like it's extreme, okay. And these people were cowards first run away. First to undermine mn its times of peace and security. Again, extremely critical blaming, pointing figures, etc. Such a weakening the resolve of

00:21:25--> 00:22:05

the community. That's how they were. And this is the kind of people that prompts them to live with and deal with the Prophet never heard any one of them never wants to lift a finger against anyone never wants to the order and execution of any of these people. Never once in fact, he was there praying for forgiveness for the head of them and he died. Okay, this is how he was also, he did this hoping that they will turn around, hoping that they will turn around. That's how he was salam, truly a mercy truly knockout gana COVID rasulillah he was what on Hassan indeed you have in the Prophet Salaam, a good example. In fact, the best trends a better transition will be you have him the best

00:22:05--> 00:22:45

example for the one who looks to God and the last day and remembers God at all times. The best example in how to deal with people the best example to deal with in every aspect of life. He was the role models or some of them, but here especially what stands out is how he dealt with all these enemies, enemies from outside and in us from inside the loss on the battlefield. That was actually a victory where Allah subhanaw taala send a wind upon the the tense of the Quraysh and Zeb and the tense blew away and it was freezing cold and they had free and last month Allah

00:22:46--> 00:22:46

you know,

00:22:48--> 00:23:35

save the believers from from from the battle that day like that. Okay, well go for local movement in Pocatello, Canada who Korean Aziza as he says in Iowa, number 25. God turned back those who denied the truth in their rage, without the their good having gained any advantage. And God was enough to protect the believers in battle. God is strong and all powerful. So this was what last month I did. He gave the believers and personal a victory. And this was done by the permission of Allah through a wind because in reality, the battle would have been not a battle, it would have been a slaughter, because the army of Quraysh and the Confederates, the sub outnumber the residents of Medina, that

00:23:35--> 00:24:28

was no battle that would have been, you know, a massacre. So Allah sponsor protected the believers from that. Also Allah protected the believers through some very, very, very intelligent planning, the planning of salmaan alafasy salmaan, the president of the lower on who, who was someone who left Persia, looking for the looking for, don't heed the oneness of Allah, and he spent decades you know, as a Christian, believing in the divinity of Allah and the and then he saw Jesus being the Prophet of Allah, right, Unitarian Christians that were going extinct, that they were actually dying off. And he went from church to church to church, from Persia, to what is Syria today, then to Iran, Iraq

00:24:28--> 00:25:00

today, then towards turkey today, church to church, the church finding, you know, the last remaining father, who could teach him about the oneness of God, eventually, that last father said to him as a prophet coming, and he's going to come in a city that has a volcanic tract, and it is an oasis, and there's palm trees, and it's in Arabia, And off he said to that place, but when he arrived, and as he was traveling there, he got enslaved and got sold as a slave to somebody who was a Jew from

00:25:00--> 00:25:40

Medina. And then here there he was waiting for the Prophet Salam until the process arrived on the Prophet some arrived, cinema Farsi said that he was on a tree plucking dates, and he almost fell out of excitement. He eventually found the Prophet, you know, in his daytime, and because he couldn't do the God in the daytime, went to the processor lab verified the profit because he had signs of the prophethood from his church fathers that he had learned. And he verified that this is indeed the profit and immediately that accepts Islam. And the process was very happy with his story. Very happy with his journey, a man who sought the truth and found the truth, then the prophets of the middle

00:25:40--> 00:26:24

Sahaba spent five years roughly trying to buy the freedom of Sandman. Okay, how so they had to gather money, they were already cash strapped many of them had nothing when they came from Makkah Medina, but still, they had to free their, their, their brother in faith. And they did so they collected money. It was some some ounces of gold and 100 palm trees, 100 palm trees is like, you know, an enormous amount of wealth. Okay? Because that is producing so much wealth for you. That it's actually like, you know, it's like having 100 Amazon stock, you know, you're gonna be rich, and you gonna be chilling for a while, okay? That's how incredible that was. That's the ransom person,

00:26:24--> 00:27:03

man. But the Muslims raised money, the prostitute himself, planted those palm trees, and allowed Samantha buy his freedom. And then when he bought it, he was bought, he was able to buy his freedom. He's a free man, he joined the Muslim community, he started to live with the believers in the same quarters. And then this battle happened. And immediately the Prophet sums, like, what do we do? And so the man was the one who said, You know what, let's dig a trench around the city, because the city is protected by volcanoes from the, from the east and the west. And there's a, you know, some, you know, there's some rocky tracks, let's dig a trench around the southern part. And that will negate

00:27:03--> 00:27:42

the advantage of the Americans. And this was something we do in Persia, amazingly, what an amazing suggestion. And how amazing was that? The person accepted that and said, Yes, let's do it. It shows you by the way, the prompts on them was, you know, he's such a, he was the most kind hearted person in the sense that he ensured he did whatever he had to do to get the freedom of salmaan. Okay. And then he also it also shows that he was extremely open to suggestions. It wasn't like, Hey, you just came, you just became Muslim? Who are you to tell us what to do? He wasn't like that. It's all up. He was like, yeah, this is great idea. Let's do it. And that's what they did. In fact, in the books

00:27:42--> 00:28:13

of sila, this battle is called the Battle of hundreds, because of the trench that was dug, as by the suggestion of Sandman or the Allahu, so this is actually that battle and to panela How amazing that was. Now, there was a long tangent, but I wanted to share that with you. Just so you know, also the believers, you see the attitude of the disbelievers and the hypocrites, particularly the hypocrites. They show the true colors, the believers will also show their true colors. What are the true colors of the believers when adversity strikes when difficulty strikes, while Mr. manana

00:28:14--> 00:28:56

and the believers saw the Confederates, Confederates there is the collection of armies. They said, This is what God and His Messenger has promised. And surely God in His Messenger has told the truth, and surely the promise of his god of God and His message has come true. It served to increase them in faith and sufficient amasa home Illa noticed him steam, Allahu Akbar. That is what adversity did to them. It increased their faith and strengthen them in faith, like this is exactly what we were expecting because that's exactly what Allah and His Messenger had promised. Because Allah and His Messenger have promised that there are going to be difficulties in life, you have to experience

00:28:56--> 00:29:42

them, you have to go through them as part of life as part of the test of your faithfulness. Minnie Minnie Narayan sada Kumar, hello, Holly, among the believers, there are men who have been true to the pledge they made and made with God. Among them are such as have fulfilled their vow and some who still wait fulfilled their well is that they have passed away fighting for the cause of God and others who are still waiting, they made the pledge and they're waiting to you know, live out their life, fulfilling it, my mother, Lila without having changed their resolve in the least. And what Allah says about this, this is I want you to underline this I I had number 24. Very, very profound

00:29:42--> 00:30:00

idea. Okay, despite all that is said about the hypocrites and their character flaws, and their cowardness and they're indecency. What does the law say? The Edge is the Allah who saw the Athena be surgery him, God will surely reward the truthful for their truthfulness while you

00:30:00--> 00:30:12

Double Muna, Filipina insha Allah and punish the hypocrites if he so wishes, our we are to violate him or he may accept the repentance. Or he may forgive them.

00:30:13--> 00:31:00

He will, you know he can punish them because they definitely are worthy deserving of it. Or he may forgive them if they turn to him and repentance in what? In the lagana of Surah rahima for God is short, the Forgiving and Merciful Allahu Akbar last month that was still willing to forgive these people who are undermining the prophets or love or like enemies from within. How about the rest of us? We're not enemies, from the law. We are believers, we have our flaws, of course, Allah, Allah is going to be even more forgiving, even more merciful. Never, ever think that your sins are too much, or you are just prone to it and you are just a sinner without any chance? No, absolutely never think

00:31:00--> 00:31:13

that for a moment, because Allah is the most forgiving and the Most Merciful. Keep trying to be better, inshallah, tada, that is the Battle of azab then there is a

00:31:14--> 00:31:15

number 28

00:31:16--> 00:31:36

Yeah, you wanna be all profit. Remember I said this theme the surah is about the process of say to your wives, if you seek the life of this world and its finery, then come, I will make provision for you and release you honorably? If you are, if life is too tough with me, that I will, you know, I will divorce you if you want to go your separate ways.

00:31:37--> 00:32:10

And this is something the process of them is giving them the choice that actually tells you from this, you can deduce that the woman has a choice in the matter of divorce, whether that be stipulated in the marriage contract or not, whether it's done through stipulation in the marriage contract or otherwise, it's not like you know, it's not tyranny. Okay. That's how some people particularly this time of forbidden orientalist, portray marriage contracts and assignments like not at all, okay, here, look at the example of that, oh, sorry, goodness, aloha Jamila. Also, what it says is, you know, sometimes things don't work out.

00:32:11--> 00:32:56

And Islam, marriage is, you know, a contract, and you can end the terms of the contract if you mutually agree to that. And this is something that, while unpleasant, is part of life, and we, you know, like with anything unpleasant, as part of life, we, it's a test of our patience, of our gratitude of our strength and character, all those things. So, divorce is quite similar to that. When going to Natarajan Allah Wa, sallahu wa Sarah, but if you see God in His Messenger and the abode of the Hereafter, then know that God has prepared a great reward for those of you who do good, okay? This is very beautiful, you know, reminder that life is tough now, all wives of the Prophet

00:32:56--> 00:33:23

but there's better things waiting for you in the next life. And none of them picked up this option. They all remain with the profit despite all the hardships that they had to face monetarily. Okay, the profit, some says Yanis. And maybe he's told that excuse me, the wife of the Prophet, the wives of the prophets are the wives of the Prophet SAW Selim are told Yeah, these are Nabhi Oh, wives of the Prophet, any one of you who commits

00:33:24--> 00:33:54

a flagrant act of misconduct shall be doubly punished because you have more scrutiny. You are the wife of the Prophet, you are not unlike any other person. Okay. Yanis Tanaka had the minister number 32 you are not like any other woman, you occupy the stash the stage the station, of the mothers of the believers in the very beginning of the surah. The Quran refers to the wives of the Prophet Salaam as

00:33:57--> 00:34:20

as well as why'd you Maha to whom his wives are their mothers, they are the mothers of the believers. So your rank and your station is so high, you have to you know, you know, you have to act accordingly. And this is an important principle. If you are a person who is who has a greater level of responsibility,

00:34:21--> 00:34:59

then you have a greater level of accountability as well. Okay. And with that, you have a greater level of reward as well. But all those of you would obey God and His Messenger and do good deeds shall be doubly rewarded, the reward is more but their scrutiny and punishment is more as well. Both things go hand in hand. And this is something that Allah reminds the provides the promise of that there was one otherwise the person asked this question, how come women aren't mentioned in the Quran? In fact, three Sahaba asked this question, though, what are the Why's the Prophet Salama? asked this question. How can Milan Allah muscato pan gamma euskara region

00:35:00--> 00:35:08

How can we not mention the Quran like the men are mentioned? Another the wife of Jaffa the Prophet systems cousin, his wife.

00:35:09--> 00:35:39

When she came to Medina she asked the same question another lady from Medina asked the same question how can we not mention the Quran the same way the men are mentioned Allah saw the response that by by mentioning this in the Muslim in our Muslim as well movement in our movement as well call it in our content that was saw the Athena was saw the hot wasabi dinner wasabi dot Nunavut as a pattern here right in the in the Arabic un if you don't know Arabic, ina at ina at ina art

00:35:40--> 00:36:32

this is the this is the way you would say believing men believing women men and women the the Arabic nouns the ending sounds change based on the gender if that's just how Arabic is okay, I didn't make it up. So, that is what this is is highlighting through the repetition that you notice here this 10 characteristics mentioned here notice this in the Muslim in our Muslim Mad Men and women who have surrendered to God a better transition let's see if there's like a more literal translation for this hmm indeed the Muslim men and the Muslim women great well move me Nina will move me because literal translations will capture the repetition which is intended here will move me Nina will move me now

00:36:32--> 00:36:44

the believing men and believing woman number two while Connie Tina will call it at the obedient men and obedient woman number three was saw the Rena was saw the pot the truth man and the truth a woman number four.

00:36:45--> 00:36:57

Wasabi Rena, wasabi a lot the patient men and the patient woman number five patient here means like, attend to sick, but you are able to you're able to control your emotions. You're calm and collected you can persevere

00:36:58--> 00:37:47

well harsh here in our Hoshyar number six, the humble men and humble woman while Mutasa Tina was adequate, the charitable men and the charitable woman number seven was saw me and I saw him at the fasting men and the fasting woman number eight, while half your Lena furuya home, what have you thought the men and the men who guard their private parts? And the women who do so to number nine? Was that good? Even law cathedra was accurate. So that was number nine. And this is the men who remember Allah often and the women who do so as well. That's number 1010 characteristics of believers, Allah says are the law who know muslera da da da da Lima. Allah has prepared for for

00:37:47--> 00:38:00

them. forgiveness and a great reward. Allah what but May Allah make us of these people? I mean, what does this is talking about two things I'll point out this is a very beautiful, very, like intricate IO.

00:38:01--> 00:38:14

The most important point here is there is no difference between the genders when it comes to spirituality. But it comes to the rewards of of actions.

00:38:15--> 00:38:58

When it comes to sins, when it comes to morality, when it comes to theology, all those things are identical. If a man does something good, they get a job, they get reward. If they do something bad, he does something bad gets a sin. If a woman does something good, she gets reward, she does something bad she gets a sin, it's identical. It's not like if a woman does a sin, it's worse. classical example, if a if a if there is someone who has committed adultery, they have had an extra marriage marital affair. It's not like the woman is more sinful than the men. That's not true. They're actually the same. In sin, they both have equals in an equal punishment.

00:38:59--> 00:39:38

And also, if something someone does something good, if someone is giving someone is praying, it's not like the person praying, you know, the man is getting more urgent, know the man, woman, they are identical. What matters for Azure for the reward is what's your intention and how hard it is for you. If it is hard for you, it's going to be more rewarding. If it's easy for you, the reward is still there. But now it's kind of like, you know, autopilot so to say. So that's point number one. Point number two. Everything is applies across the board. Every time Allah says he who does good, it talks about both genders when the power says in Whoever believes he who believes in Allah and the

00:39:38--> 00:40:00

Last issue StG should say good or stay silent. He or she is made means both genders across the board in every single text of Islam. It's for both of those exception being if it is a gender specific ruling. That's the exception. If it is a gender specific ruling. That is when we separate these

00:40:00--> 00:40:28

Ruling gender by gender, okay, otherwise this is the default case that the Quran is out. Okay. Number three here also is when the Sahaba were like Why? Why are we mentioned? Right? They were concerned, they're like how come are not mentioned the Quran addresses their concern, and now their concern is put to bed because they know they're included. That's the, you know, they're they're included by default, they should not feel excluded. And you know, it doesn't, you know,

00:40:29--> 00:41:09

it's okay to feel and question this, but it's not okay to after you have understood this part to continue to feel that way. The Quran is not excluding women, the Sharia does not exclude women, okay? It's just there's a style in Arabic That is dominant, which is the pronoun uses for them, the male pronoun he or they, okay, are you are you all for the male that's the dominant pronoun, don't think you're excluded, you're by default included. So this is some beautiful lessons from this idea that I wanted to share with you. Well, of course, there's differences in rulings, as I mentioned, you know, certain rulings like hijab is different for gender to gender because, you know, it's

00:41:09--> 00:41:52

specific to a gender as I mentioned, the Quran makes it's based on the premise that this is women are intrinsically beautiful, there is an intrinsic natural beauty that a woman has, that a man does not have. And that's why there is the added responsibility of hijab just like the responsibility on the man is to lower his gaze first, and the woman to also lower her gaze and not check out the other person. But the added responsibility of hijab is added on upon the woman for that reasonable Lavoie. Okay, moving on to item number 36 speaks about why it is so important to follow the process and mcenany movement in one minute in a puddle of water sudo Imran Enya Guna lahoma Here are two min

00:41:52--> 00:42:41

Amri him, it is not befitting for a believing man or believing woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decided a matter they should thereafter have any choice about their affair choice and the sense that you always choose you choose to do good and evil, but you have now relegated your decision making to Allah and His messenger that is the peak of submission and disobedience to onlines messenger is a certain is clear error, okay? Now, if you remember in the very beginning, I said to you, you know, be feared God and do not yield to those around the truth and the hypocrites right? As we spoke about the Battle of gossip, but then there was also other pressure that was put on the

00:42:41--> 00:43:28

Prophet, not by the disbelievers or Makkah, but by the hypocrites of Medina. And what would they do? They would they would try to any of the things about them would do, they will try to undermine one of the things that the POS alum, he had a adopted son by the name of zayde the Quran abrogated this practice, not the practice of adoption, you can adopt a child absolutely, but you cannot say that child that you have adopted is your son biologically, you cannot say that, oh, there are only about him who are doing the law, call them after their own father's that is closer to justice.

00:43:29--> 00:43:42

Their DNA, you cannot change their DNA, you cannot change their DNA. Okay. You and that DNA was established by Allah. So you're saying Allah was wrong by choosing this person for the father of this person? Right that would you say?

00:43:43--> 00:44:26

Don't you know say that they are your brothers in faith? What miroir Lee komiya prodigies, right? You take care of them. They are like your children. A you can treat them like your children. They the prophets, adopted son, for all practical purposes was like a family member of the process of the grandson that the son of the summer was like a grandson he was treated, just like the children of it were treated has an upper saying they were all like treated the same way. So in treatment and love in, you know, in everything, they were the same, but you cannot change the biology of a person, can you? So now what happened is he was married to

00:44:28--> 00:44:59

Zainab with Josh, who was the prop Selim had proposed that they get married, but they didn't work out they got divorced. So the professor was then told for Mr. cavas I mean, what Oren does I was not gonna have the Prophet Sam was then told to marry Zed. Why like a Lacuna Coil movement in the heritage so that in order that they will not be upon the believers any discomfort concerning the wives of their adopted sons when they no longer have need of them meaning once the couple is done,

00:45:00--> 00:45:43

The adopted sons wife is not like the wife of the son if remember, we spoke about the wives of the sons are like the like that the father in law can never get married to them and vice versa, like, you know, say a man can never marry his mother in law. Oh, you know ever Okay, even after divorce, but this is the case for someone who is, you know your own flesh and blood if they are an adopted child. This doesn't apply. This was something that was scandalous and the hypocrites pounced on it and they're like, ah, see, right. And the problem, it was a difficult moment for the Muslim but Allah Papa said, this is not to make your life difficult or profits on them. This is the way of

00:45:43--> 00:46:24

Allah with those prophets were passed before he wants to clarify things he wants to break the taboos through the practice of the Prophet Salaam, himself, okay. And the Quran says you know the problem is not the father of any man because all his children passed away. All the sons passed away in infancy, but he is the Messenger of Allah and the Last prophets. And he is an Allah is Ever knowing of all things. The Prophet is described as a all messenger, you notice how many times this expression is repeating if 45 Yeah, you will not be indeed we have sent you as a witness and a bringer of good news and of tidings a bringer of good tidings and a warner and you are one who

00:46:24--> 00:46:37

invites to Allah but his permission was Suraj and monniera. And you are an illuminating light or prophets or lamp but she's meaning convey to the believers the good news that God has bounties

00:46:38--> 00:47:22

you know, blessings in store for them fatherland can be wrong. And again, do not yield those who deny the truth and the hypocrites ignore their hurtful talk, what they're at their home, whatever kilala put your trust in God when causes sufficient as a garden, you see how similar the beginning is to this part here? Well, I have to tell Catherine Don't do this. Don't yield to them. Okay. Here says again, don't yield to them. don't obey them. Don't. They're pressure, don't let that break you. What are their home they are saying hurtful things. ignore their hurtful things. Okay. Here it says follow what's been revealed to you. It says ignore the hurtful things. That's how you follow the

00:47:22--> 00:48:04

revelation by ignoring the hurt that people are saying to you. Because you know, this is just how people are working Fabien whatever call Allah trust Allah, Allah will take care of you. And truly Allah took care of the prophet SAW Allah. The Quran mentions that Allah pantalla in his angels in the LA Hama mala eco who you saw lunarlon NaVi you alladhina amanu sallu alayhi wa sallam slum gardens angels bestow blessings on the Prophet Salam O believers, you should also invoke blessings on him and give him greetings of peace. How beautiful is this, that Allah said he will take care of you, he takes care of him by Allah himself and his angels, invoking blessings upon him sauce on

00:48:04--> 00:48:04

them.

00:48:06--> 00:48:12

This is something also by the way, last month, it says that this is not you know, Allah, Allah also

00:48:13--> 00:48:41

sends His blessings upon us as believers I have 43 By the way, it is he who says Blessings to you as to His angels, so that he may bring you out of darkness into light, but for the prophets of Salaam, it is even more specific and special for us as generic blessings. The problem is a very specific type of invocation Aloma suddenly Allah Muhammad Muhammad must have master later on I brought him on Alibaba in the Commodore g in this

00:48:42--> 00:48:52

passage, the surah Soke circles back to in the ending to the hypocrites and the Israelites and the believers a very interesting

00:48:54--> 00:48:54

you know,

00:48:55--> 00:49:37

very interesting conclusion. Okay. Oh yeah, you live in Amman, oh, you believe I 69 we do not behave like those who slandered Moses. Right. These hypocrites are slandering the prophets Allah, the people of Bani Israel. It was slander Moosa, they will say that he has leprosy or some sort of skin disease. That's why he's not bathing with us in public. That's why he hides and takes a bath. But Allah cleared him of this allegations for Barbara Hello homie mahalo. It's such an unacceptable thing about to say about anybody to say that about a prophet of Allah. To say that about Mustafa is one of the greatest prophets of Allah, how egregious and how disgusting is that? Okay, but that was

00:49:37--> 00:49:59

how people slandered him and look at the hypocrites are slandering the prophets them to in similar similar ways. Don't be like them. all believers. Okay. Be like the he This is how you shouldn't be Yeah, you're looking at La La. Oh no, Colin sadita. You should say the right word. This is okay transition. You should say

How we'll answer D then is studied is from the word said that which is a barrier, okay? It's like the images of a wall that has no cracks when you speak. It's like a wall that has no cracks, your statements are the full truth. There's not a crack of misrepresentation or lying or misleading in it, it is the full truth.

00:50:33--> 00:50:36

Our Landsat data that should be that's the norm.

00:50:37--> 00:51:29

There are exceptions a time of war strategics strategic leave, you know, for an army excetera cetera right to prevent catastrophe. Okay, you can not like say outright lie, but you can, you know, manipulate a situation so it doesn't just, you know, descend into disaster, okay, particularly in relationships and in times of war, but those are the only exceptions. The 99.99999% of the time, this is the standard goland study that you see the whole truth with not a crack of misguidance or miss direction or misleading in it. That's the believers wait. You're special Kamala Khan, where your fellow consumer come, He will bless your works for you, and forgive you your sins. Not even as

a joke. By the way, we don't even joke with lies, we tell the truth. And that's, you know, if it's your funny you don't need to lie to be funny. Okay? If you're not, then you need to work on your sense of humor. whoever obeys God in His Messenger has indeed achieved great success as a very beautiful advice. And this is a very beautiful expression. If you fear Allah, actually, this is an if then condition. If you feel a lot and you tell the whole truth, Allah will fix your life then Allah will fix your life and forgive your sins. You say hello, my Malcolm is he will fix your deeds, that's your life. And he will forgive your sins a very beautiful Surah Surah dealing with these

00:52:06--> 00:52:49

matters. Surah Saba is Surah number 34 surah Sabah and sort of thought that I'm gonna lump them together into one common theme, the theme of surah Saba 34 and sort of father number 35 is submission to Allah is success and this is you know, like the it has like a very you know, some students are very close in their content. They're like a pair almost in these two and you can make an argument or like that, okay. Both of us begin with praising Allah Lucas number 34 it says an hamdulillah rosary five begins with Alhamdulillah right 34 Alhamdulillah 35 Alhamdulillah they both begin by praising Allah, what is Surah subasta it says Alhamdulillah Hillel Allahumma sumati Rama

00:52:49--> 00:53:36

How, how aware is he Yeah, hello, my energy fell out. He knows whatever it goes into the earth and whatever it comes forth from it, whatever descends from the heaven and whatever ascends to it Subhanallah he is the merciful and forgiving. It talks about submission. Okay, talks about how people who don't submit to God, you know, they have you know, reasons like the our will never come upon us. made this thing is just whatever we're gonna live and die. But unless Martha says, Bella will not be that Deanna kumala vibe she has by my Lord,

00:53:36--> 00:54:24

it will surely come to you. There is not the smallest particle in the heavens or the earth or anything less or greater than that, that that escapes him. All is recorded in a open book. Everything is recorded so that Allah may hold people accountable the edges yeldon Avenue, I'm going to show you how it will test and then when any holds accountable. He can reward those who did good and give them forgiveness and mercy and honorable provision, eternal happiness, but those who strove against our I art, so I will see it the more rGz You see, they weren't just like blissfully ignorant. This were people who rejected actively for those who like Allahumma daba. Medicine Aleem,

00:54:24--> 00:54:39

they will have a torment a painful punishment. Okay, examples are mentioned here in the surah of people who were dominant. And this submitted for example, though, that Islam We bestowed upon David great favor Ayah number 10.

00:54:40--> 00:54:40

Okay,

Okay, Mr. Lu, Allah Buddha chakra, give thanks house of David, for a few of my servants are truly grateful. Right. This is the role that is and how amazing he was. There is an example of people who were not submitting even though they were dominant. And this is the people of Subbu leveled cannoli Saba infamous, can empire for the people of Sheba. There was a sign in their homeland. Jenna Danny, I mean, he was shaman to gardens on the right and on the left, this was a people there are ancient people who lived in the kingdom of Sheba. Okay. And these people

00:57:08--> 00:57:24

were extremely well off. They had everything they had on these two gardens, the right and the left mean that they had, you know, all types of agriculture to sustain them without worry of starvation, okay and without need of trade, gave

And you have a forgiving Lord, you just turned to him and and submit to Him as well. But then, although they were they were not, you know, they weren't interested in following the truth. So then there was if a punishment unleashed upon them, and their good stuff became into bad stuff, okay, there are leakages. Now, homie maka follow this. This is how we repay them for their ingratitude. We have new jersey in the food, we

00:58:30--> 00:58:35

There's this very beautiful passage I number 31. About

about the people who is you know, who are disbelievers?

00:58:45--> 00:58:47

And how they have excuses to not believe

00:58:49--> 00:59:31

I actually want to achieve point one passage out and number 24 before that, sorry, I should I didn't have that my nose but I want to point this out. I have never 2425 2627 you notice all four of them. I have a very interesting style. What does that interesting style say? Say? Say? Say? Right?

It says an IRA number 31. I want you to think about this. Check this out with me. Okay. But hold on the vena cava, let me know we have a Pura vida,

01:00:44--> 01:01:02

Villa de manera. De, despite the calls the reason despite all you know, the signs of Allah that are around, a person who is bent on denying the truth, would say, We shall never believe neither in the Scripture, nor in anything that came before it. This is probably

01:01:03--> 01:01:06

someone who's agnostic, is agnostic.

01:01:07--> 01:01:15

Yes, there is someone or something that, you know, is like the prime mover, the one that originated the

01:01:16--> 01:01:58

you know, kickstarted the process of creation, but he has nothing to do with my life, or the lives of the people he has nothing to do with morality or anything. So we shall never believe in the concept of Scripture here represents you acknowledging Allah and then saying, you know what, he wants you to do something and follow some level of morality so you can he can hold you accountable. Right. So this is probably someone who's agnostic and saying, You know what, I will not believe in this scripture or any that came before this concept of being held accountable for my actions I rejected Okay.
