Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim
hamdulillah Hirak Amin. Also that was salam ala acromion NBS even
more serene CD nap or Mola. Now have you been on Mohamed what
other early he was such behavior? Hmm I mean
brothers, sisters, children.
This evening we have completed our hearing in reverence and
acceptance of the words of our Lord.
For some, it is a familiar journey.
It is like crossing a great continent, from shore to shore.
Beginning with Al Fatiha and ending with a nests.
We've heard the roaring of the thunder and the song of the birds.
We've crossed through deep, mysterious forests. We have seen
mountain peaks soaring above us.
It is a unique land an extraordinary experience to travel
through the word of the eternal Lord.
And every believer has his own way of feeling his heart shaped and
softened and lit up by this journey.
We all have our favorite places, our memories of when we memorized
a particular verse, we all have our own way of being astonished by
the sheer musicality of the text by the concatenation of vowels and
consonants. By the extraordinary rhymes by the sometimes ecstatic
rhyming prose, the surge of it all we all have our attachment to this
most extraordinary of books
with the Quran is associated with the night which is later Takada.
And this makes the night a mystery.
Allah subhanaw taala has not chosen to disclose to this Alma
exactly when this blessed night will fall. He told me so highfill
ashram I was there. When Ramadan, seek it out we are told in the
last 10 nights of Ramadan. But for some scholars, it could be any
night of Ramadan. For others, it could even be outside the Ramadan
it is hidden, it is veiled it is a mystery.
Because so many of the greatest and the finest and the most
profound things are veiled from human sight.
We do not even gaze upon a caravan will shall refer there is a veil
before it.
And so we hope that this is the night in which we recall the
supreme miracle of God's own uncreated speech, coming to this
world, the world of World Quest, shahada, from the inconceivable
light of the unseen from the ape from above seven heavens whose
nature we cannot conceive into this world of space and time so
that we here in Cambridge can hear it sounds and benefit from its
blessings. So we've completed this journey this evening.
And we remember how the Holy Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam began with this journey, when the revelation first came to
him, and the terrifying experience that that was, we experienced the
Quran is this wonderful symphony, this sweetness that we could
listen to forever. Even if we did not understand one word, the sheer
beauty of the speech carries us along, and the hours go by as if
they were minutes. This is one of the secrets of the book. And we're
reminded of the secret in this month, which is the month of the
Quran Shahara Ramadan Allah the Uzi Luffy Hill for end, the month
of Ramadan in which the Quran was sent down.
By but the Holy Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam it was no easy
introduction.
Revelation came to him like a great detonation like a light of
an unknown kind coming from an unseen world.
Imam Bukhari begins his great Sahil with the story of the
beginning of Revelation.
I want Omar booty I be here Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam a minute what he wrote, yes, tufin now.
The first beginnings of revelation for the Holy Prophet salAllahu
alayhi wasallam was the righteous the true dream in his sleep.
This is even before the Quran, but it is part of revelation
Session for cannula era in Nerja at Mithila follow up is so when he
would do not see a dream but that it came like the breaking of the
day
and we are baffled. What is a dream like that is like the
breaking of the day.
It's hard to imagine. But this was the dawn of prophecy to the chosen
one sallallahu alayhi wa sallam his illuminated heart,
which had been cleansed in his childhood by the angels themselves
and washed in the dish of ice. So that it could be the purest thing
on earth to receive this great word. He was being prepared for
this tremendous event.
This way, this inspiration from the beyond, from the real world
from Unhak, terracotta Allah.
And then,
in His purity, his disappointment with his own people, his
determination to follow the way of his forefathers Ibrahim Kalibo,
Allah alayhi salam, he goes into his retreat in the Hari Hara, in
the cave on Mount Hara.
And then it happens. The journey for him begins
not with the Fatiha, but with the commands in Accra.
The magnificent Angel whose wings spread from horizon to shining
horizon terrified him sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
and the angel grabs him
in this most fearsome of experience without Tahu and chokes
him
and says, a crop
and the choking is so great for vata, who had gotten he has tabula
rasa menial Jahad
he choked me until I almost came to my my end. I reached the limits
of my endurance for Allah.
And he says recite
the Holy Prophet replied to Alayhi salat wa salam ala Ana, Bukhara I
am not a reciter. What am I to receive was to read? What is this
strange, mysterious commandment this this incredible being who's
throttling me is asking me to do
and this happens three times to make it even more terrifying. So
Allahu alayhi wa sallam, and finally he hears the words which
rock like, do you from heaven. The first words in this mirror of
Deacon let the Halacha
recite in the Name of your Lord, who is created caller called
Insert I mean Allah created man from a clot of blood clots.
The Raja RP ha Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the
Yarra drew who who Adam.
So he goes back with these words with this message that has been
delivered to him. This explosion from the unseen yarn shuffle for
adult, his heart is palpitating,
beating fast, the fear of it the majesty of it and the weight of
this word, I think comes to Khadija and she covers him in the
mantle and you know the story.
But the point is that this experience on this night of power
is a powerful one indeed, might majesty Jalil.
This is what was revealed to him sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
in a low tea or lake Collins Akela we shall send down on you a heavy
word.
What word Allah is uncreated speech
Lorenzana * for ANA Allah Jabba Nila eita, who call Shia on
motorcycles the unmanifest Yeti lab, where we descend this quarter
and down on a mountain, you would see it shattered, broken apart
from the fear of God.
That would be its impact if revealed to a mountain mountain
could not take this cosmic luminous detonation. But where did
it come? In all of the heavens in the earth? What is it appropriate
landing place Mozilla who? Allah calbeck He sent it down on your
house. No other phenomenon in space and time could carry this
immense word. But the heart of the chosen wants on the word to Allah
He was to them or they could and did carry it, but it helped it ace
and then the message proceeds and that is immensely powerful. Jalali
word gets out amongst the Arabs with their miraculous knowledge of
the beauty of the language. It is their only beauty
and it melts their heart hearts. It is the full n that does this
and
This is from the miracle of Allah speech. So we hear it, and we
enjoy the beauty. And then this night of power, we experience the
majesty of it. And we try with our hearts because it's beyond the
mind to imagine what it is for God's uncreated speech to be with
us in Cambridge this evening to hear words that are not created,
not written, not composed, not premeditated, no drafts. No
proofreading, the word of God alone will not heal Kadeem.
So as well as the beauty and as well as the terror and the majesty
of our frail human flesh, experiencing the majesty of the
sublime creative, as well as this.
We experience eternity.
What happens in the myth Rob? Why is our worship about the Quran?
Why is the Quran in everything? Everything in the Muslim life
leads to the mosque, and the mosque leads to the Quran. And our
prayer is the Quran and the Quran is the center of everything. It is
our experience of transcendence. It is our experience of the
existence of the real world.
Because it is not of this world.
To help them in a rough man him of desert on Kadima tones, if at all,
no Sophie Bill returning
verses of truth
from the all compassionate, renewed, but ancient. Their
quality is as the quality of he who has no beginning.
So this word that is uncreated, that is not part of the normal
growth and decay of this
mortal world. This part of eternity comes to us to the heart
of the chosen was sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in this
spectacular night. This event horizon is place where the normal
rules of space and time and cause and effect and literary convention
are torn asunder, because Allah subhanaw taala is not bound by any
of our laws. And his book is mystery upon mystery upon mystery.
Why did the sources become shorter as we go through the book? Have we
come across another book like that? We have not. Why does so
many of the sources begin with detached letters? Look at tox Alif
Lam Meem Haleem? Yes, seen. Taha? Do we know what they mean? Not
really, this is a mystery. The book is mystery upon mystery upon
mystery. But when we experience it, when the sweetness comes to
us, we experienced this light
in every verse, send a hammer rebuttal us
radula Juan, who was a Sahabi had a particular connection to Allah's
book. used to say, mannakkara Alko N forgot to put the rejet in Nobu.
What will be Legend V 11. The hola yo ha Elaine. Whoever recites the
Quran, prophecy has been included between his two sides, it's just
that he doesn't receive revelation. So when we hear it, we
memorize it, we recite it, we read it, we engage with it, we breathe
the breath of eternity.
That which is purest of us, is the breath that comes from the roar.
And it is that part of us that experiences transcendence, and the
divine majesty and the divine glory and that is what we have
done this evening. As we have heard these vibrations and this
resonance of the syncopations of these extraordinary sounds which
are unlike anything in this world, transform us and melt us in ways
that are too deep for us to understand.
It's in harmony with us. So so many things about Allah's book.
The also says that the recitation of the Quran is da Raja Tolan feed
agenda of reverse you recite is another degree in Jana will miss
Vahagn, feeble your Tikhon and a lanten. In your houses.
There is a light for what kind of light, not electricity, not this
light. The light we've experienced tonight was from the one who is no
summer where it will erode the Light of the heavens and the
earth. That which is below and beneath the surface of things, and
gives those things their reality. So this is the mystery of the
letter to God, which we struggled to understand but we feel its
importance. It is a night of power of majesty. We recall the
shattering impact of the revelation of the unseen to the
heart of the Holy Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and we
feel that majesty,
that Allah is generous to this ummah. And our experience of the
Quran is a bit sweetness. We love to hear
Aren't those extraordinary tonalities and rhythms.
Somebody who has now passed on to the next world who are Jewish
convert to Islam, who lived in wider streets not far from here.
He came as a musician. He was a composer. His works were performed
by famous symphony orchestras in England. He came to Islam through
not knowing a word of Arabic.
There's the rhythms of the Quran. He said these rhythms in this book
are unlike anything else we musicians have ever experienced
ever. This is extraordinary.
In the Lynmouth, Davina repairs, hada our neighbor work, our eye
trauma and so forth all of this hypnotized and gave him joy. It
used to write pieces of music. Maybe the muftis will be
uncomfortable. But he wrote pieces of music with the aura and rhythms
in them and they were popular. This was what melted his heart and
brought him to Islam. Prophet Allah, how are they?
So that's one aspect. one facet of the diamond. That is allows book.
And as I said, we all have our own relationship with Allah's book on
there and gratitude to allow for what he does for us. And what he
discloses to us through his book because it is nourishment. It is
the greatest nourishment of Ramadan. There is the joy of Iftar
we nourish our bodies.
There is after the Asia it's the nourishment of the spirits that
comes from the Tarot. We, when we feast upon God's Word, the battle
law goes banquet. And what a beautiful banquet it is.
A banquet, like all best banquets shared between good friends,
between brothers, the OMA which is the ALMA of those whose hearts
have been changed by the Quran.
So may Allah subhanaw taala make us those who hear his book, not
just with our ears, but with our hearts, who recognize the majesty
and the greatness of the revelation that were sent down
upon the beating heart of the chosen one psalm Allahu alayhi wa
sallam, on Jebel, and nor so long ago, May He make us people who
hear the word and follow the best of the word istemi Oh, no Cola,
for your Tabby owner. Afsaneh make us people who are not just made
ecstatic by this word, but whose actions are changed,
from whose hearts light spreads out into their families, into
their neighborhoods, into the whole world? Because it's been
almost of light. Because Allah subhanaw taala has blessed us with
this extraordinary blessing. This unique treasure, this chest full
of sparkling diamonds, which it is us are privileged to experience in
Ramadan and insha Allah at any time, so may Allah subhanho wa
taala. Grant us all of the baraka Ramadan excepto productions and
accept our fasting, accept our good neighborliness accept our
forgiveness of each others, accept our Adam insha Allah and make us
truly people who have whose hearts are connected to the poor and make
us people who have some share in the mystery and the majesty of the
little color or color of equal will offer them income was salam
