00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			All right, I want to begin, of course,
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:04
			in the name of our Creator, Subhanahu wa
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:04
			ta'ala.
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:06
			Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Raheem.
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:09
			Alhamdulillahi rabbil alameen, wassalatu wassalamu ala nabiyyi al
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:11
			-ameen, wa ala alihi wa sahbihi ajma'een.
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:14
			Allahumma la sahla illa ma ja'altahu sahla,
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:16
			wa anta taj'alu al-hazna idha shi'ta
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:16
			sahla.
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19
			Rabbish rahli sadri, wa yassir li amri, wahlu
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			al-uqdatan min al-lisani, yafqahu qawli.
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:23
			Allahumma a'allimna ma yunfa'una, wa anfa
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			'una bima a'allamtana, wa zidna ilman ya
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:26
			rabbil alameen.
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:27
			Ameen.
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:27
			All right.
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:29
			Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:33
			Once again, I mean, it's a great honor
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			to be back here with you guys.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:35
			I really love this community.
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:38
			May Allah bless you and preserve you and
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:40
			continue to grow the community and bless your
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:43
			children to be the next generation of the
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:44
			leaders of America.
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			Ameen, ya rabbil alameen.
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:49
			All right, so alhamdulillah, today we are back
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:52
			for the conversation about, in Jum'ah, we
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:53
			spoke about what?
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:55
			Paradise.
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:58
			Paradise was definitely at the end.
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:02
			But the main topic, yes, the Day of
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:02
			Judgment.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:03
			The Day of Judgment, right?
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:07
			And we focused on the tarheeb part.
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:10
			So the da'wah ilallah or preaching to
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:14
			Allah or convincing others or ourselves to go
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			on the path of Allah, it's mainly two
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:17
			parts.
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:18
			It's a tarheeb with tarheeb.
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:21
			It's the hope and fear, right?
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:25
			And increasing our hope in Allah's mercy and
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:26
			reward.
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28
			And also, the opposite end of it is
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:31
			increasing our fear in His punishment and being
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:32
			worthy of that punishment, right?
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			So the main topic, our main focus this
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:38
			weekend would be the tarheeb part of it,
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:41
			which is increasing our fear in a healthy
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:44
			dose, reasonable but in a managed way.
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:47
			And sometimes that's not focused on often enough
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:49
			in our culture here as American Muslims because
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:52
			it's good to be positive and it's good
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			to prioritize, which we should.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:02:00
			Allah's mercy, Allah's mercy, Allah's mercy is greater
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:01
			than all things.
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:02
			That is Allah's words, right?
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:06
			And Allah's mercy overcomes His wrath, subhanahu wa
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:06
			ta'ala.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:08
			And that's Allah's gift to us and to
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:08
			all of mankind.
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			And Allah has broken His mercy down into
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:14
			100 parts and He has sent down how
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			much to this earth?
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:19
			One.
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:19
			One part.
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:23
			And He reserved 99% of His mercy,
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:25
			subhanahu wa ta'ala, for the believers in
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:25
			the akhira.
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:27
			May Allah ta'ala make us amongst them.
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:29
			So this is the most hopeful thing I
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:29
			can hear.
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31
			99% of Allah's mercy is awaiting the
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:32
			believers in the akhira.
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:34
			It gives me some peace in my heart
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:34
			and my soul.
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:36
			But we still have to be worthy of
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:37
			earning it.
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:38
			Or rather, earning it is not the right
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:38
			word.
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:40
			We have to be worthy of being gifted
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:41
			it.
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			Because ultimately Allah gives it as a gift.
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			But you have to be humble and broken
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:46
			down in front of Him, subhanahu wa ta
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:48
			'ala, and be worthy of receiving that gift
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:50
			of mercy from the Creator.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:51
			May Allah make us all worthy of it.
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:53
			And our families and our loved ones.
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:57
			So today, we spoke earlier about the Day
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:58
			of Judgment.
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:59
			Now we're going to speak about the signs
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:01
			of the Day of Judgment.
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:03
			And those are two separate topics entirely.
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:06
			So the signs, the Day of Judgment occurs
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:06
			after death.
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:10
			The signs, all of them occur in this
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:11
			life, in this dunya, correct?
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:14
			So they're connected, but they're two different topics.
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18
			So before I get started, what is the
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:20
			concept of the signs of the Day of
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:20
			Judgment?
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:21
			Can somebody explain it in one sentence?
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:24
			The signs of the Day of Judgment.
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:27
			Who said it?
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:29
			Prophecies, yes.
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:30
			So what is a prophecy?
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:36
			If you have to define prophecy for your
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:39
			test, what does prophecy mean?
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:44
			An event foretold by the Prophet ﷺ.
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:46
			And that's where you get the word prophet.
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:48
			And that's where you get the word prophecy.
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:50
			And what is prophet in Arabic?
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:53
			Nabi.
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:55
			Nabi, we have Rasul and Nabi.
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:58
			Rasul means messenger, the one who delivers the
		
00:03:58 --> 00:03:58
			message.
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:02
			That's why you could say Rasul Rasulullah ﷺ.
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:06
			Sometimes the Prophet ﷺ would send one of
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			the companions with a task, and he would
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:11
			say, I'm the messenger of the messenger of
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:11
			Allah.
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:13
			It was a very honorable thing to say.
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:15
			He literally meant, I'm just the messenger, I'm
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:16
			delivering a message.
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:18
			But he is the messenger of Allah.
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:20
			He is delivering the message from Allah ﷺ.
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:24
			So we call the Prophet ﷺ and all
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			of the messengers, they are Rasul because they
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:28
			received the Risalah, they received the message, but
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:30
			they are also a prophet, a Nabi.
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:32
			And Nabi comes from, the same way that
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:36
			prophet comes from the word prophecy, Nabi comes
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:36
			from the word?
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:39
			Naba or Nubuwa.
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:40
			Nubuwa, right?
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			Nubuwa meaning prophethood, but that also comes from
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:45
			a root, you can also go back further,
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:46
			which comes from the word Naba.
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:51
			عَمَّ يَتَسَأَلُونَ عَنِ النَّبَأِ الْعَظِيمِ What are they
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:52
			questioning about?
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:53
			What is everybody arguing about?
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:57
			عَنِ النَّبَأِ الْعَظِيمِ About the big news, the
		
00:04:57 --> 00:05:00
			major news, the biggest news humanity ever received
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			in history, and will ever receive.
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			And what is that Naba al-'Azim?
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:06
			يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ The Day of Judgment, the Akhirah,
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:08
			that this life is not, you don't just
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:09
			live and die, and you eat a little
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:10
			bit and you die.
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:11
			It's a big deal.
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:14
			نَبَأٌ عَظِيمٌ So Allah uses that phrase نَبَأٌ
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:15
			عَظِيمٌ several times in the Quran.
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:18
			نَبَأ Literally, if you go to an Arabic
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:20
			dictionary, it just means news.
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:22
			The one who delivers the news, the one
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:24
			who received the news and delivers it is
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:24
			the prophet.
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:28
			نَبِي صلى الله عليه وسلم So now you
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:30
			know some background, why we say Rasul, why
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:30
			we say Nabi.
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:33
			The reason why we call them Nabi, or
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:35
			prophet, and the reason why whoever translated prophecy
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:39
			as the information that the Prophet ﷺ had
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:40
			about future events.
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:43
			Notice he didn't just say, and sometimes also
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:45
			past events, but Naba is usually focused on
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:45
			future.
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:49
			Because there's one specific sort of characteristic of
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:53
			this news that specifies that they become a
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:53
			prophet.
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:56
			Because I can come from, you know, New
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:57
			York and tell you, hey I have some
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:59
			news about what happened in New York.
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:01
			I'm not a Nabi, I'm just a guy
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:02
			who knows something that happened there.
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:04
			Even though it's technically Naba.
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:09
			The prophets, the prophecies are news, or information,
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:12
			that this human being could not have possibly
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:14
			known except if they received it from God.
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:17
			That's what makes them, they get a title.
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:18
			You are a prophet.
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:22
			You receive revelation, you receive information that you
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:23
			could not and should not have possibly known.
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:25
			And the only conclusion after we put all
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:29
			the data together, after we, the news comes
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:32
			true, long after the Prophet ﷺ has passed
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:33
			away and left the world, then we can,
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:35
			the only conclusion to say is this person
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:37
			received this Naba, this news from God.
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:38
			Okay?
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:43
			ينبئكم عن الماضي وعن المستقبل ينبئكم عن الماضي
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:46
			وعن المستقبل He informs you about the past
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:47
			that he could not have known.
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:49
			How could he have known things that happened
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:49
			a thousand years ago?
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:53
			The specific interactions between Yusuf ﷺ and his
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:53
			brothers.
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:54
			Right?
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:57
			And the specific interaction between Yusuf ﷺ and
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:59
			the woman who tried to seduce him and
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:00
			the conversations they had.
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:03
			How did he know وَجَاءَتْهُمْ إِحْدَاهُمَا تَمْشِي عَلَىٰ
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:08
			اِسْتِحْيَاءٍ When Prophet Musa ﷺ, before he married
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:10
			his wife, when they interacted, Allah said she
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:12
			walked towards him to tell him to come
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			speak to her father and she walked with
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:15
			a very modest walk.
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:16
			There was two human beings on the planet
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:18
			who had that interaction.
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:21
			And Allah revealed it to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:23
			to tell us about that interaction because it's
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:24
			of value to us.
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:25
			So he informs us about the past that
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:27
			he could not have possibly known and he
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:28
			informs us about the future that he could
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:29
			not have possibly known.
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:32
			And the thing that we can verify both.
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:35
			When the Prophet ﷺ said one of the
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:37
			signs of the Day of Judgment is that
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:40
			Jaziratul Arab, the Arabian Peninsula, you guys are
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:42
			familiar with it, what will happen to it?
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:47
			Well earthquake yes, that's one of the last
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:48
			signs of the Day of Judgment.
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:49
			Landslide is one of the last signs as
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:49
			well.
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:52
			But before that is it will return green.
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:57
			The Arabian Peninsula.
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:58
			Authentic hadith.
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:00
			One of the signs of the Day of
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:02
			Judgment, the Prophet ﷺ said the Arabian Peninsula
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:05
			which is Mecca, Medina and you know Saudi
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:06
			Arabia roughly.
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:12
			Will become green and with rivers, lush and
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:14
			with rivers and then he said something very
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:14
			specific.
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:15
			As it used to be.
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:17
			Say again.
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:20
			I can't hear that sorry.
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:23
			Oh idol worship yes.
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:25
			There's another sign of the Day of Judgment
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:26
			that the Arabs will return.
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:28
			Some Arabs will return to worship not just
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:30
			pagan idols specifically.
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:32
			The Prophet ﷺ said Al-Lat and Al
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:33
			-Uzza specifically.
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:35
			Two idols that existed in pre-Islamic Arabia
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:38
			that have not been worshipped for 1400 years.
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:41
			And guess what I saw on the internet.
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:43
			And you can see it with your own
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:43
			eyes, videos.
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:47
			There are some Arabs, Saudis who are, have
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:50
			set up shrines not just some statues you've
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:51
			seen in the desert for art.
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:52
			No no.
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:53
			They've set up shrines for Al-Lat and
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:55
			Al-Uzza specifically.
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:57
			And they have said in their video, you
		
00:08:57 --> 00:08:58
			can watch it, they're talking to you.
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:00
			They said it's time to bring back our
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:02
			ancestry and our heritage that Islam removed.
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:06
			First time in 1400 years.
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:09
			Prophet ﷺ prophesized this 1400 years ago.
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:11
			He said the Day of Judgment will not
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:11
			come.
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:14
			The hour will not come until some of
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:16
			the Arabs go back to worshipping these particular
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:16
			gods.
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:17
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:19
			But I want to go back to the
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:23
			prophecy about Arabia will return to being green
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:24
			and lush with rivers.
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:25
			And then he said as it used to
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:25
			be.
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:28
			This specific hadith, or this specific prophecy is
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:31
			so beautiful and so powerful in that it
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:33
			has, it informs us about the past and
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:34
			the future.
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:36
			So it's two miracles.
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:39
			The Prophet ﷺ his whole life, Arabia was
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:40
			nothing but desert.
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:42
			Now Allah has honored me.
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:43
			I lived in Mecca for eight years.
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:46
			In those eight years we had maybe eight
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:47
			rainfalls.
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:48
			That's it.
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:50
			We get rain in Mecca once a year.
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:54
			And our average rainfall, precipitation whatever you call
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:54
			it.
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:57
			So who knows here in Pennsylvania what's the
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:58
			average rainfall per year?
		
00:09:58 --> 00:09:58
			How many inches do you get?
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			Anybody here like hunters or you know, farmers?
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:05
			It's a lot.
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:07
			I'm from New York.
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:08
			We're all neighbors.
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:10
			I know for New York a number because
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:11
			I was curious and I looked it up.
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:13
			When you live in Mecca long enough you
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:14
			start really craving rain.
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:17
			And you start really understanding when the Arabs
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:20
			would go out and say, which is in
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:21
			the Qur'an, they would go out.
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:22
			When we lived in Mecca, like honestly, if
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:23
			we were in the middle of class, and
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:25
			these are students of knowledge with a shaykh
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:27
			teaching, if it started raining they would pause
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:28
			the class and everybody would go outside.
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:31
			And everybody would just sit and then you'd
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:32
			go outside and you'd find everybody.
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:33
			The men, women, and children.
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:34
			People close their shops.
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:36
			People in suits and just like letting it
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:37
			hit your body.
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:39
			Once a year you get rain.
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:40
			Maybe twice.
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:43
			In New York, I'm pretty sure Pennsylvania is
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:46
			very similar, it's 40 inches of rainfall per
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:47
			year on average.
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:48
			Masha'Allah.
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:53
			Northeast America we have very blessed opportunities and
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:54
			arable land.
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:56
			We have a lot of gifts and fresh
		
00:10:56 --> 00:10:56
			water resources.
		
00:10:57 --> 00:10:58
			We have a lot of gifts over here.
		
00:10:58 --> 00:10:59
			40 inches.
		
00:10:59 --> 00:10:59
			4-0.
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:02
			With that number in mind, how many inches
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:03
			do you think Mecca gets per year?
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:06
			4 inches.
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:08
			7?
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:12
			It's 0.5. Half an inch.
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:14
			Half an inch per year of rainfall.
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:16
			I'm talking about Mecca specifically, not Arabia.
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:17
			Other parts of Arabia, Masha'Allah, they get
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:17
			rain.
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:18
			Mecca.
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:19
			It's a desert.
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:20
			It's a dry desert.
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:22
			When the Prophet ﷺ is saying this place
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:24
			used to be rivers and lush, he said,
		
00:11:24 --> 00:11:26
			it was lush.
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:27
			It was a rainforest basically is what he's
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:28
			saying ﷺ.
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:31
			You can imagine the people saying at that
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:32
			time, what are you talking about?
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:34
			You could have just at least said it
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:35
			had some grass.
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:37
			But you're saying it was a rainforest, lush,
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:39
			and he said that.
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:40
			That's what he said ﷺ.
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:42
			It used to be that way, and guess
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:42
			what?
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:43
			It will be before the Day of Judgment.
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:46
			Now, people have seen pictures, people have been
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:48
			sharing pictures of Mecca becoming green.
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:50
			So Allah blessed me to make Umrah at
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:51
			the beginning, well now it's last year, January
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:52
			of 2024.
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:55
			And I was only there for a week,
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:58
			and in my entire time living there, I
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:00
			have never seen the mountains, because the mountains,
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:02
			when the rain falls, it becomes green.
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:03
			That happens every year.
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:05
			But because we get rain once a year,
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:06
			it becomes green for a week, and then
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:07
			that's it.
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:07
			It dies out.
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:09
			And it becomes very lightly green.
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:11
			Like it's not lush.
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:15
			Last year, I left in 2017, so it's,
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:17
			subhanAllah, almost a decade now, subhanAllah.
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:19
			So, it's been a long time.
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:21
			I've never seen it as green as I
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:22
			saw it last year, January of last year.
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:24
			And yes, I know we went in January,
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:25
			which is the winter.
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:27
			So yes, that's when the rain falls.
		
00:12:28 --> 00:12:30
			But it's still like, this is, I've never
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:30
			seen that.
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:31
			And I lived there.
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:32
			I passed by those mountains daily.
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:34
			And I said, subhanAllah, it's on the way.
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:35
			It's on the way.
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:37
			Another sign is that you know how they
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:41
			said the fossil fuels, which Arabia is the
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:41
			centerpiece of.
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:43
			Where do fossil fuels, like what are they
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:44
			made of?
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:45
			What have they always told us?
		
00:12:46 --> 00:12:48
			Well, oh, so you guys know better.
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:48
			It's trees.
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:50
			I was always taught it was dinosaurs.
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:52
			I mean, hey, I don't know, maybe I'm,
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:54
			Ahmed, we went to the wrong school.
		
00:12:54 --> 00:12:55
			Didn't they tell us it was dinosaurs?
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:57
			Yeah, growing up, they said it was dinosaur
		
00:12:57 --> 00:12:58
			bones, right?
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:00
			And they've switched.
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:01
			The theories changed.
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:02
			Now the kids get taught it's all trees.
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:05
			So, if you're saying the biggest deposit of
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:07
			trees that turned into fossil fuels was in
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:09
			Arabia, that means it was lush and green.
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:11
			It was a rainforest once upon a time.
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:13
			And also, they've done aerial photographs, and they
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:16
			see the old places where rivers used to
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:18
			be in Arabia, al-Rub' al-Khali, the
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:18
			empty quarter.
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:21
			The proof is, and like, it's pretty much,
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:23
			as far as I understand, unanimous that that
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:24
			region was a rainforest once upon a time.
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:27
			So, the second part of the hadith, it's
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:29
			yet to come, but I'm just as convinced.
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:30
			Just as we found out about the past,
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:32
			we will see the future if Allah gives
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:32
			us life.
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:35
			So, that's just a powerful, powerful, that's one
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:38
			prophecy out of hundreds that the Prophet Muhammad
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:41
			ﷺ gave us about the impending end of
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:41
			the world.
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:44
			So, before we get too excited, these are
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:45
			all signs that the world is ending.
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:48
			So, it's not, it's scary.
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:50
			And it's meant to be scary because that,
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:52
			we'll talk about the function of that fear.
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:54
			So, I have a question for you to
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:54
			start us.
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:57
			Are we in the end times?
		
00:13:58 --> 00:14:00
			Who says yes, raise your hand.
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:02
			And who says no?
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:06
			Okay, does anybody want to, like, give some
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:08
			thoughts on your thesis, why you say yes
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:08
			or no?
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:11
			You said no, right?
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:12
			Okay.
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:24
			Okay, okay.
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:26
			So, you know that before the Day of
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:28
			Judgment, that the Muslims will be fewer, and
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:30
			in fact, one hadith specifically also says the
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:31
			Arabs will be very few in number as
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:31
			well.
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:32
			So, okay.
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:33
			That's a good thesis.
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:34
			Okay.
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:35
			Thoughts?
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:36
			You said yes.
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:48
			Okay.
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:49
			The tallest buildings.
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:01
			Yeah, that's also another prophecy of the Prophet
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:01
			Muhammad ﷺ.
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:02
			Okay.
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:05
			So, you are all each, I love that
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:08
			you are all basing your thoughts on authentic
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:09
			prophecies of the Prophet ﷺ.
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:10
			It's not just, oh, I feel like it.
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:10
			That's good.
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:11
			That's a great sign.
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:12
			That's where we should start.
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:12
			Yes, brother.
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:16
			Okay.
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:18
			So, you said no, we're not in the
		
00:15:18 --> 00:15:19
			end time yet, because of that.
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:25
			Okay.
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:32
			Great.
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:33
			Great.
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:33
			Yes, brother.
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:39
			Yes.
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:45
			The Prophet ﷺ said, He said, I was
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:49
			sent, and the hour will follow me like
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:49
			this.
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:50
			And he made this hand signal.
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:51
			I don't know if it shows up here
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:51
			or not.
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:52
			Yeah, it did.
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:54
			It shows up, he said, like this.
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:58
			So, he said, my Risalah, me being sent,
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:02
			and my death, ﷺ, will be signs of,
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:04
			are signs of the Day of Judgment.
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:06
			So, and then he said, I was sent,
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:07
			and the hour will be sent after me
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:08
			like this.
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:12
			Meaning, obviously, it's been 1400 years since, 1450
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:12
			roughly, right?
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:16
			But he's talking in a general sort of
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:18
			sphere, in the history of the world, in
		
00:16:18 --> 00:16:18
			the history of nations.
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:21
			And we'll give a hadith about that as
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:21
			well.
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:23
			So, okay, so, I mean, I'm glad we
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:26
			had mixed thoughts about that, because it's hard
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:27
			to define what do you mean by end
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:27
			times.
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:30
			So, if you're saying the last nation, the
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:32
			last ummah, then of course, there will be
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:34
			no ummah after Nabi ﷺ's ummah.
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:36
			It's the ummah of Muhammad, there's no Prophet
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:36
			after him.
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:38
			The only one that returns is Isa ﷺ,
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:40
			but he returns as a member of the
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:41
			ummah of Muhammad ﷺ.
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:42
			Okay?
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:44
			And a leader, the righteous leader, who will
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:46
			lead us to victory, and peace, and prosperity,
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:46
			inshallah.
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:48
			And he will unite the people of the
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:51
			book, the sincere ones, with the believers, the
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:52
			Muslims as well.
		
00:16:53 --> 00:16:54
			But yeah, there's no Prophet after Muhammad ﷺ,
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:56
			so we are the end times in that
		
00:16:56 --> 00:16:58
			regard, based on that very obvious, very clear
		
00:16:58 --> 00:16:59
			-cut hadith of our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:02
			However, that's the broader version of like, well,
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:04
			the last nation, the last nation can last
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:05
			2,000 years, or whatever number, right?
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:07
			As we are, you know, we're at 1
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:08
			,400, it can go on.
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:12
			But the more specific definition of, well, end
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:13
			times, if we are to give it a
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:15
			number, are we in the last 100 years
		
00:17:15 --> 00:17:16
			of the world?
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:18
			The answer to that is الله أعلم.
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:20
			Nobody can ever say with certainty.
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:21
			Never.
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:25
			And our brother mentions a very poignant point
		
00:17:25 --> 00:17:29
			where Brother Uthman had said earlier about Prophet
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:32
			Isa ﷺ, when he returns, he's expected to
		
00:17:32 --> 00:17:33
			stay up to 40 years and live a
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:35
			natural life and die a natural death.
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:37
			So that's almost two generations right there.
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:40
			So, some people say, well, Jesus is not
		
00:17:40 --> 00:17:40
			back, so I'm good.
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:41
			You know?
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:43
			Like, I got 40, 50, 60 years.
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:45
			However, we'll talk now about major and minor
		
00:17:45 --> 00:17:47
			science because there is a function to learning
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:48
			this stuff.
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:48
			It's very important.
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:51
			There's a reason why Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, or
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:53
			sorry, Jibreel, rather, when he came in the
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:54
			famous hadith, when he came to the Prophet
		
00:17:54 --> 00:17:57
			ﷺ and asked him about أخبرني عن الإيمان,
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:58
			عن الإسلام والإيمان والإحسان.
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:01
			He said, teach me about Islam and teach
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:01
			me about Iman.
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:03
			Teach me about Ihsan, which is the highest
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:04
			level of Iman.
		
00:18:04 --> 00:18:06
			Then he said, teach me about the Day
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:07
			of Judgment and its signs.
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:11
			So he's asking about, he's pairing this with
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:12
			Islam and Iman and Ihsan.
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:13
			It means it's important.
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:14
			It's important to know, right?
		
00:18:15 --> 00:18:16
			It's listed there.
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:18
			And that's where the hadith about the Arab
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:20
			Bedouins building the tallest buildings and competing.
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:31
			يَتَطَوَّلُونَ فِي الْبُنِيَانِ Jibreel ﷺ told أخبرني
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:33
			عن الإشارة The Prophet ﷺ said to Jibreel
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:38
			ﷺ You will see the desert Bedouins competing
		
00:18:38 --> 00:18:42
			in building tallest buildings and they're barefoot shepherds.
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:43
			So it's very contradictory.
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:46
			Wait, barefoot shepherds building the tallest buildings and
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:48
			they're desert Bedouins, they're usually the last people
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:50
			to have those means, have the wealth and
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:52
			have the ability to do such a thing.
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:53
			It's the last thing you can expect.
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:56
			It's such a contradictory paradoxical experience.
		
00:18:56 --> 00:18:58
			You can experience tall buildings in like if
		
00:18:58 --> 00:18:59
			he said in the Roman Empire at that
		
00:18:59 --> 00:19:01
			time or Byzantine Empire or the Persian Empire.
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:03
			You say, okay, I can see them getting
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:03
			there.
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:05
			They already have the mausoleums and the palaces.
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:07
			But the desert Bedouins, they had nothing.
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:10
			They had like roofs made out of like
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:11
			tree bark.
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:12
			And he said, no, you're going to see
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:12
			them.
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:14
			And he described them as the desert Bedouins
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:15
			who are shepherds and they will be barefoot.
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:18
			And like you go, I live there.
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:22
			I know this is a very literalistic translation
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:24
			of the hadith, but they're literally barefoot.
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:25
			Everyone's wearing ship-ship over there.
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:27
			Everyone's wearing like flip-flops.
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:29
			And these are the richest billionaires, trillionaires, you
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:29
			know.
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:30
			And they got buildings now.
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:33
			They just announced literally a few weeks ago.
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:36
			I forgot where in Saudi Arabia or was
		
00:19:36 --> 00:19:37
			it one of the Gulf countries?
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:41
			They're now building a so it was Burj
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:42
			Khalifa.
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:43
			That was the tallest.
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:45
			And then there's Jeddah Tower, which is still
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:45
			in construction.
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:48
			They just announced a taller one.
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:50
			And like they've started construction.
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:52
			It's exactly what the hadith says.
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:55
			Like word for word copy, you know, carbon
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:55
			copy.
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:57
			So the Prophet ﷺ warned us that these
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:58
			things would happen.
		
00:19:59 --> 00:20:00
			And he told us, look, these things will
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:01
			happen at the end of times.
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:03
			And the more of the signs that you
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:05
			see, the closer we are to the world
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:07
			ending and the story being finished.
		
00:20:08 --> 00:20:09
			Every story has a final chapter.
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:11
			We don't know for sure if we are
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:12
			in the absolute final chapter.
		
00:20:12 --> 00:20:14
			In fact, we know that we aren't because
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:16
			there are ten major signs that have not
		
00:20:16 --> 00:20:17
			come, which we'll talk about in a second.
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:19
			But the more and more we see of
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:21
			everything we just mentioned and hundreds more, the
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:22
			closer we get there.
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:25
			As the minor signs sort of like start
		
00:20:25 --> 00:20:29
			running out, meaning you see all of them
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:30
			occur, that just means that the major signs
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:32
			are right around the corner.
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:32
			Okay?
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:33
			All right.
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:36
			So the question, are we in the end
		
00:20:36 --> 00:20:36
			times?
		
00:20:36 --> 00:20:37
			It's not easy to answer it with a
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:38
			direct yes or no.
		
00:20:39 --> 00:20:41
			But you should have an awareness of it
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:41
			as a Muslim.
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:44
			Because when Allah sends us these signs in
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:46
			the Qur'an, which he did, Allah tells
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:48
			us about dabbah, dabbatun minal ard, the beast,
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:51
			which is also found in Christianity and Judaism.
		
00:20:51 --> 00:20:53
			And Allah told us about yajuj and majuj
		
00:20:53 --> 00:20:55
			in the Qur'an, gaag and magaag, which
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:56
			is also found in Judaism and Christianity.
		
00:20:56 --> 00:20:58
			And Allah told us about ad-dajjal, and
		
00:20:58 --> 00:21:00
			Allah told us about Isa, wa innahu la
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:02
			'alamun lissa'a, and so on and so
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:02
			forth.
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:03
			They are in the Qur'an.
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:04
			So if it's in the Qur'an and
		
00:21:04 --> 00:21:06
			in the hadith, authentic hadith, then it's important
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:06
			for us to know.
		
00:21:07 --> 00:21:09
			But beware of somebody who's telling you for
		
00:21:09 --> 00:21:09
			certain.
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:12
			There are videos like that online, people who
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:14
			we don't know their credentials, they're random videos
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:16
			with a lot of very well done, very
		
00:21:16 --> 00:21:18
			good graphics, very good music, and like it's
		
00:21:18 --> 00:21:20
			like a movie, it gets you really pumped.
		
00:21:21 --> 00:21:23
			And they tell you things for certain and
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:25
			this person's hiding in a cave and this
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:25
			and that.
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:27
			And you're like, you believe it because it's
		
00:21:27 --> 00:21:27
			very well made.
		
00:21:28 --> 00:21:28
			But beware.
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:31
			Which leads me to the very important question.
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:35
			Who before I phrase it this way, I'll
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:36
			phrase it this way.
		
00:21:37 --> 00:21:39
			When you hear about a sign of the
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:40
			Day of Judgment, or the ones that you
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:43
			just told me yourself, how do you, what
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:44
			made you believe that and accept it as
		
00:21:44 --> 00:21:46
			a true sign of the Day of Judgment?
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:49
			When you told me that Arabia, they'll compete
		
00:21:49 --> 00:21:50
			in tall buildings.
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:52
			When you told me that Arabia will return
		
00:21:52 --> 00:21:54
			green or that 10 have it, you're reassured
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:55
			because well the 10 ones haven't started yet.
		
00:21:55 --> 00:21:58
			What makes you so confident that those are
		
00:21:58 --> 00:21:59
			even reliable?
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:02
			Yes.
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:04
			They are sourced to one of two sources.
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:07
			Which is number one, Qur'an.
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:09
			And number two, Hadith.
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:11
			And we have to specify authentic Hadiths of
		
00:22:11 --> 00:22:12
			our Prophet ﷺ.
		
00:22:12 --> 00:22:15
			Meaning, we can verify with some confidence that
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:16
			the Prophet ﷺ actually said this.
		
00:22:17 --> 00:22:17
			Alright?
		
00:22:17 --> 00:22:18
			That's why I put that caveat.
		
00:22:19 --> 00:22:21
			So yes, guys, I cannot insist enough.
		
00:22:21 --> 00:22:23
			That's why I gave that whole introduction about
		
00:22:23 --> 00:22:23
			Nabat.
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:25
			Who gives the news?
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:26
			Nabi ﷺ gives the news.
		
00:22:27 --> 00:22:29
			And if it's anybody else, they have to
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:30
			justify their news.
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:33
			If somebody tells you our Muslim leader will
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:35
			come and he will be, he's hiding in
		
00:22:35 --> 00:22:36
			a cave right now.
		
00:22:37 --> 00:22:38
			And he will show up one day.
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:41
			I'll tell him, I have no problem accepting
		
00:22:41 --> 00:22:41
			that.
		
00:22:42 --> 00:22:44
			If I can find it in Qur'an
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:45
			or authentic Hadith.
		
00:22:46 --> 00:22:47
			Is that a fair statement from me?
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:48
			That's 100% fair.
		
00:22:49 --> 00:22:51
			If somebody told me, there will be a
		
00:22:51 --> 00:22:54
			mountain of gold in Egypt.
		
00:22:56 --> 00:22:57
			Before the Day of Judgment.
		
00:22:57 --> 00:22:58
			I have no problem accepting that.
		
00:22:58 --> 00:22:59
			I'd like that.
		
00:23:00 --> 00:23:03
			But, I won't accept it until you can
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:05
			confirm that somebody who has news, somebody who
		
00:23:05 --> 00:23:06
			I can believe can tell me about the
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:07
			future, told me.
		
00:23:08 --> 00:23:09
			It has to be from Allah.
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:12
			And the only one Allah, لَا يُذْهِرُ عَلَى
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:15
			غَيْبِهِ أَحَدًا إِلَّا مَنْ اِرْتَضَ مِنْ رَسُولٍ Allah
		
00:23:15 --> 00:23:16
			says in Qur'an, He does not allow
		
00:23:16 --> 00:23:19
			anybody to see the غَيْب except, Allah gave
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:19
			one exception.
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:21
			إِلَّا مَنْ اِرْتَضَ مِنْ رَسُولٍ Except the ones
		
00:23:21 --> 00:23:23
			He has selected amongst His messengers.
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:25
			He gives, not all the messengers had all
		
00:23:25 --> 00:23:26
			the news and all the information.
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:29
			Is every messenger of Allah عَلَمُ الْغَيْبِ They
		
00:23:29 --> 00:23:30
			know everything of the unseen?
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:31
			No.
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:33
			Allah gave them the knowledge some of the
		
00:23:33 --> 00:23:34
			unseen.
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:36
			That's why the Prophet ﷺ when Jibreel asked
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:38
			him, and Jibreel was disguised, he told him,
		
00:23:38 --> 00:23:41
			مَا الْمَسْؤُلُ أَعْلِمُ بِهَا مِنَ السَّائِلِ He told
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:45
			him, أَخْبِرْنِي عَنِ السَّاعَةِ O Muhammad ﷺ, tell
		
00:23:45 --> 00:23:45
			me about the hour.
		
00:23:45 --> 00:23:50
			He said, he doesn't know more than the
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:51
			person asking.
		
00:23:52 --> 00:23:53
			So when people tell you, well the Prophet
		
00:23:53 --> 00:23:54
			ﷺ knew everything.
		
00:23:55 --> 00:23:57
			Well hear him, he is saying himself.
		
00:23:58 --> 00:23:58
			I don't know.
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:03
			And Allah says in the Quran, يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:05
			السَّاعَةِ أَيَّانَ مُرْسَاهَةٍ What's the next ayah?
		
00:24:06 --> 00:24:10
			فِي مَا أَنتَ مِن ذِكْرَاهَا إِذَا رَبِّكَ مُنْتَهَاهَا
		
00:24:10 --> 00:24:11
			They ask you about the hour, when is
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:11
			it?
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:15
			Allah says, respectfully, I say respectfully as me,
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:18
			but who is the Prophet to tell them
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:19
			that?
		
00:24:20 --> 00:24:21
			And the phrasing may be disrespectful, may Allah
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:23
			forgive me for the translation there.
		
00:24:24 --> 00:24:25
			But it is Allah who will tell them.
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:27
			The Prophet ﷺ very clearly said, I don't
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:27
			know.
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:30
			And only Allah knows the entirety of it,
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:30
			right?
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:33
			So I say this why, especially to the
		
00:24:33 --> 00:24:35
			young people who we get most, you know,
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:37
			the young people get most of their news
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:38
			from TikTok and this and that and the
		
00:24:38 --> 00:24:38
			other, right?
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:41
			And sometimes it can be of value, but
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:42
			very often it can be a double-edged
		
00:24:42 --> 00:24:42
			sword.
		
00:24:42 --> 00:24:44
			It can be a curse, it can be
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:46
			a blessing and a curse because a lot
		
00:24:46 --> 00:24:48
			of people, if the video is well-made
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:51
			and the person is speaking very confidently, that's
		
00:24:51 --> 00:24:52
			enough, that's convincing.
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:54
			And they take it as fact.
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:56
			But that's not enough.
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:58
			The person needs to justify any belief that
		
00:24:58 --> 00:25:00
			they've had, especially about the akhirah, about the
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:01
			end of times, about signs, you have to
		
00:25:01 --> 00:25:03
			justify it with Qur'an or sunnah, period.
		
00:25:04 --> 00:25:05
			Otherwise, I will not accept it.
		
00:25:06 --> 00:25:08
			And beware, beware, beware, brothers and sisters.
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:11
			I cannot insist enough as the times the
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:13
			Day of Judgment draws near, which it is.
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:15
			As technology is getting, you've seen the videos,
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:17
			not just me, we talked about it before
		
00:25:17 --> 00:25:18
			and now it's gotten so much more advanced
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:19
			since we saw it.
		
00:25:20 --> 00:25:22
			People now make videos of Ronaldo talking with
		
00:25:22 --> 00:25:23
			an Egyptian accent.
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:23
			Have you seen those?
		
00:25:24 --> 00:25:26
			Maybe just my feet.
		
00:25:26 --> 00:25:29
			It's hilarious, but it's very scary.
		
00:25:29 --> 00:25:30
			What happens if tomorrow they give you, who's
		
00:25:30 --> 00:25:33
			a shaykh that you respect online, that you
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:34
			listen to?
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:36
			Shaykh Muhammad Shannawi.
		
00:25:37 --> 00:25:38
			So may Allah protect him and bless him.
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:40
			What if...
		
00:25:40 --> 00:25:41
			The thing is you can meet him in
		
00:25:41 --> 00:25:42
			person and verify if he said something or
		
00:25:42 --> 00:25:42
			not.
		
00:25:42 --> 00:25:43
			Give me somebody that you don't meet.
		
00:25:45 --> 00:25:46
			One...
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:46
			Shaykh Yasir Qadhi.
		
00:25:47 --> 00:25:48
			Hafidhallah, may Allah protect him.
		
00:25:48 --> 00:25:51
			If a video comes tomorrow of him preaching
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:54
			and it looks 1000% authentic and he
		
00:25:54 --> 00:25:55
			gives you a false sign of the Day
		
00:25:55 --> 00:25:56
			of Judgment, God forbid.
		
00:25:56 --> 00:25:57
			Or he says this or that.
		
00:25:57 --> 00:25:58
			He says...
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:00
			If in the video he says enough wrong
		
00:26:00 --> 00:26:01
			things that are just...
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:03
			They're not so wrong that you say, what
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:03
			is this?
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:05
			Because they give it away.
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:07
			They change it piece by piece.
		
00:26:07 --> 00:26:09
			That's what they did for the Jewish scripture
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:09
			and the Christian scripture.
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:14
			They never changed it like 1000% of
		
00:26:14 --> 00:26:14
			the time.
		
00:26:14 --> 00:26:15
			People notice immediately.
		
00:26:16 --> 00:26:17
			Rather they change it word for word.
		
00:26:18 --> 00:26:18
			And there's...
		
00:26:18 --> 00:26:19
			Anyway, it's a whole history.
		
00:26:20 --> 00:26:22
			But there's a modern Bible that's only 30
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:24
			years old called the Schofield Bible where it's
		
00:26:24 --> 00:26:26
			promoted the modern...
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:28
			Actually, it's like 50, more than 30 years
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:28
			old.
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:28
			50 to 100.
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:30
			And it's...
		
00:26:30 --> 00:26:32
			It promotes the modern state of Israel and
		
00:26:32 --> 00:26:34
			it was well funded by the Zionists and
		
00:26:34 --> 00:26:34
			this and that.
		
00:26:34 --> 00:26:36
			And the way that the subtle changes that
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:38
			they make is so fascinating.
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:41
			And now finally people are realizing after the
		
00:26:41 --> 00:26:43
			damage is done, where it's...
		
00:26:43 --> 00:26:45
			They never change it in a major way
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:46
			because people notice.
		
00:26:46 --> 00:26:47
			My point is, if that video comes out
		
00:26:47 --> 00:26:49
			and it's your favorite shaykh and you cannot
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:51
			see any flaw in this video and they
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:54
			start saying things they cannot trace back to
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:56
			Quran and Sunnah, how well will you recognize
		
00:26:56 --> 00:26:57
			it?
		
00:26:57 --> 00:26:59
			How much of a critical thinker are you
		
00:26:59 --> 00:27:01
			where you say, even if I respect this
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:03
			shaykh, with all due respect, he also...
		
00:27:03 --> 00:27:04
			He's not God.
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:06
			And he's not the Rasul.
		
00:27:06 --> 00:27:07
			And he can make mistakes.
		
00:27:07 --> 00:27:09
			And this could be a fake because that's
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:10
			the world we live in now.
		
00:27:10 --> 00:27:11
			He needs to be able to justify it
		
00:27:11 --> 00:27:12
			from Quran and Sunnah.
		
00:27:13 --> 00:27:13
			Okay?
		
00:27:13 --> 00:27:15
			I'm giving you this warning because we are
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:17
			entering the era where the Prophet ﷺ said
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:19
			there will be many dajjals before the real
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:19
			dajjal.
		
00:27:20 --> 00:27:21
			There will be many deceivers before the great
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:22
			deceiver, the worst deceiver.
		
00:27:23 --> 00:27:25
			And those deceivers will have followings.
		
00:27:26 --> 00:27:27
			And in my country of origin in Egypt
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:30
			and in many of your countries of origins
		
00:27:30 --> 00:27:33
			and here in America, in churches, there are
		
00:27:33 --> 00:27:37
			preachers who say basically whatever they want and
		
00:27:37 --> 00:27:38
			they get very mystical.
		
00:27:39 --> 00:27:40
			And they say, God, you have to follow
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:40
			me.
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:41
			God came to me in a dream and
		
00:27:41 --> 00:27:42
			He said this will happen and you will
		
00:27:42 --> 00:27:43
			get this prosperity.
		
00:27:43 --> 00:27:45
			And people chase after these people.
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:48
			They follow them like...
		
00:27:48 --> 00:27:49
			And they give them all their money.
		
00:27:50 --> 00:27:51
			They give them all their trust, all their
		
00:27:51 --> 00:27:51
			loyalty.
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:53
			And they're leading them to the hellfire.
		
00:27:53 --> 00:27:54
			May Allah protect us.
		
00:27:55 --> 00:27:55
			Never ever...
		
00:27:55 --> 00:27:56
			Prophet...
		
00:27:56 --> 00:27:56
			Not Prophet...
		
00:27:56 --> 00:27:58
			Imam Al-Shafi'i, rahimahullah.
		
00:27:59 --> 00:28:01
			Imam Al-Shafi'i said, if I saw
		
00:28:01 --> 00:28:02
			a man walking on water in front of
		
00:28:02 --> 00:28:04
			my eyes, or...
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:07
			I saw him flying through the sky in
		
00:28:07 --> 00:28:09
			front of my eyes, I would still reject
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:10
			anything he said if he could not source
		
00:28:10 --> 00:28:11
			it back to Qur'an and Sunnah.
		
00:28:13 --> 00:28:14
			This is Imam Al-Shafi'i, rahimahullah.
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:17
			And so that's how we believe.
		
00:28:18 --> 00:28:19
			I don't care what you tell me.
		
00:28:19 --> 00:28:20
			I don't care what magic tricks you have.
		
00:28:20 --> 00:28:22
			The Prophet ﷺ said, the dajjal, the great
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:25
			deceiver, the antichrist, the worst fitna that humanity
		
00:28:25 --> 00:28:27
			will ever face, he will bring...
		
00:28:27 --> 00:28:30
			He will appear to bring back a person's
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:32
			mother and father back to life.
		
00:28:32 --> 00:28:33
			You know this hadith?
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:34
			Authentic hadith.
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:35
			Sahih Bukhari, if I'm not mistaken.
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:38
			He said, he will tell several men.
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:39
			He will tell the first man, he will
		
00:28:39 --> 00:28:41
			tell him, if I bring back your mother
		
00:28:41 --> 00:28:43
			and father, and they tell you, oh my
		
00:28:43 --> 00:28:45
			son, we are back from the dead, this
		
00:28:45 --> 00:28:46
			is God, and worship Him, bow to Him
		
00:28:46 --> 00:28:47
			for dajjal.
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:48
			Will you worship me?
		
00:28:49 --> 00:28:50
			And the man will say, yes.
		
00:28:51 --> 00:28:54
			And so, dajjal will bring two jinn, and
		
00:28:54 --> 00:28:55
			they will take the appearance of his mother
		
00:28:55 --> 00:28:57
			and father as he sees them.
		
00:28:57 --> 00:28:58
			And they will say, oh my son, my
		
00:28:58 --> 00:29:00
			dear son, we know we were wrong, worship
		
00:29:00 --> 00:29:00
			this man.
		
00:29:01 --> 00:29:02
			And he will worship him and he will
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:02
			be taken to *.
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:04
			And he will say this to another man.
		
00:29:04 --> 00:29:06
			And this is the authentic hadith in Bukhari,
		
00:29:06 --> 00:29:07
			if I'm not mistaken.
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:10
			He says to him, here is your mother
		
00:29:10 --> 00:29:10
			and father.
		
00:29:10 --> 00:29:12
			And he will bring him, his deceased parents,
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:14
			the appearance of them of course, he cannot
		
00:29:14 --> 00:29:15
			bring them back from the dead actually.
		
00:29:15 --> 00:29:17
			And they will say, oh my beloved son,
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:18
			worship this man, he is God, he is
		
00:29:18 --> 00:29:19
			your savior.
		
00:29:19 --> 00:29:22
			And this man will say, you are a
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:24
			trick of the devil, and Prophet Muhammad ﷺ
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:25
			warned me that this would happen.
		
00:29:26 --> 00:29:27
			And dajjal will kill him, and he will
		
00:29:27 --> 00:29:28
			be a shaheed and go to paradise.
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:31
			So this man, may Allah give us that
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:32
			strength of iman.
		
00:29:32 --> 00:29:33
			This man was not fooled.
		
00:29:34 --> 00:29:36
			He was not fooled by the emotional blackmail.
		
00:29:36 --> 00:29:37
			The man didn't just bring anybody.
		
00:29:37 --> 00:29:39
			He didn't tell him, I'll give you 10
		
00:29:39 --> 00:29:39
			million dollars.
		
00:29:39 --> 00:29:40
			He said, I'll bring back the two people
		
00:29:40 --> 00:29:42
			you love the most, your parents, who tell
		
00:29:42 --> 00:29:44
			you please and they plead with you and
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:44
			they cry to you.
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:46
			That's gonna, and it will be as real
		
00:29:46 --> 00:29:48
			as day in front of this person.
		
00:29:48 --> 00:29:50
			It won't look like a, he will feel
		
00:29:50 --> 00:29:51
			it like it's real.
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:52
			And he still had the iman and the
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:54
			strength to say what Imam Shafi'i said.
		
00:29:55 --> 00:29:56
			I don't care what you bring me.
		
00:29:56 --> 00:29:58
			Bring it Qur'an and Sunnah, otherwise I
		
00:29:58 --> 00:29:59
			will reject you even if you kill me.
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:01
			And those are the shuhadaat.
		
00:30:01 --> 00:30:02
			May Allah Ta'ala give us that strength
		
00:30:02 --> 00:30:04
			of iman in those difficult times.
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:05
			So beware.
		
00:30:05 --> 00:30:07
			If the person cannot source it back to
		
00:30:07 --> 00:30:08
			Qur'an and Sunnah, I don't want it.
		
00:30:08 --> 00:30:09
			I don't care what you say.
		
00:30:09 --> 00:30:10
			I don't care how many people believe it.
		
00:30:10 --> 00:30:11
			10 billion people believe it.
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:12
			It doesn't matter to me.
		
00:30:13 --> 00:30:14
			Bring me Qur'an or bring me Sunnah.
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:15
			The only one who can tell me about
		
00:30:15 --> 00:30:19
			the unseen is Allah and His approved messengers.
		
00:30:19 --> 00:30:22
			إِلَّا مَنْ اِرْتَضَ مِنْ رَسُولٍ So the Prophet
		
00:30:22 --> 00:30:26
			Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam gave us a criteria that
		
00:30:26 --> 00:30:28
			there are minor signs and major signs.
		
00:30:29 --> 00:30:32
			أَشْرَاطُ السَّاعَةَ السُّغْرَةِ وَأَشْرَاطُ السَّاعَةَ الْكُبْرَةِ The minor
		
00:30:32 --> 00:30:34
			signs, they are called minor for a reason.
		
00:30:34 --> 00:30:35
			I have some differences here.
		
00:30:35 --> 00:30:36
			And then the major signs.
		
00:30:36 --> 00:30:37
			I'll start with the major.
		
00:30:38 --> 00:30:40
			Major signs, the reason why they're called major
		
00:30:40 --> 00:30:42
			is because they're big signs, they're big events,
		
00:30:42 --> 00:30:43
			very specific events that occur.
		
00:30:44 --> 00:30:46
			The first of the major signs with some
		
00:30:46 --> 00:30:48
			dispute, but it's most likely Wallahu Alam the
		
00:30:48 --> 00:30:50
			very first of the major signs is Al
		
00:30:50 --> 00:30:50
			-Dajjal himself.
		
00:30:51 --> 00:30:53
			Al-Dajjal comes before Jesus Christ before Isa
		
00:30:53 --> 00:30:56
			Alayhi Salaam returns because Isa returns to fight
		
00:30:56 --> 00:30:57
			the Dajjal and kill him and bring peace
		
00:30:57 --> 00:30:58
			back to the world.
		
00:30:59 --> 00:31:02
			So the major signs are very obvious, very
		
00:31:02 --> 00:31:03
			clear cut, very specific events.
		
00:31:04 --> 00:31:05
			And the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said when
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:08
			one of them starts, the next are rapidly
		
00:31:08 --> 00:31:09
			one by one by one by one.
		
00:31:09 --> 00:31:12
			Now you're correct that when Isa Alayhi Salaam
		
00:31:12 --> 00:31:15
			comes, there is like a sort of brief
		
00:31:15 --> 00:31:17
			time where there's peace and prosperity like one
		
00:31:17 --> 00:31:18
			generation's worth.
		
00:31:18 --> 00:31:20
			But the others, there's a lot of overlap.
		
00:31:20 --> 00:31:23
			So Dajjal and Isa and Gog and Magog,
		
00:31:23 --> 00:31:24
			they overlap, Isa Alayhi Salaam and so on,
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:25
			right?
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:25
			We'll talk about those.
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:27
			But the 10 major signs, there are only
		
00:31:27 --> 00:31:29
			10, and I got that number from Rasulullah
		
00:31:29 --> 00:31:30
			Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:31:30 --> 00:31:32
			There are 10 major signs, they happen at
		
00:31:32 --> 00:31:33
			the very end of the world.
		
00:31:33 --> 00:31:35
			If you live to see those signs, then
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:37
			you know that the world is ending in
		
00:31:37 --> 00:31:39
			a very short time within one or two
		
00:31:39 --> 00:31:40
			generations.
		
00:31:40 --> 00:31:41
			May Allah protect us from that.
		
00:31:42 --> 00:31:44
			In fact, you can say three generations because
		
00:31:44 --> 00:31:46
			the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam mentions the last
		
00:31:46 --> 00:31:48
			generation, there will be no believers left anyway.
		
00:31:48 --> 00:31:49
			So may Allah protect us from ever seeing
		
00:31:49 --> 00:31:50
			that.
		
00:31:50 --> 00:31:52
			That will, it's the end of generations, the
		
00:31:52 --> 00:31:54
			worst of people, only the worst of God's
		
00:31:54 --> 00:31:54
			creation will remain.
		
00:31:55 --> 00:31:55
			So we don't even want to talk about
		
00:31:55 --> 00:31:56
			that.
		
00:31:56 --> 00:31:58
			We wish never to see that one, so
		
00:31:58 --> 00:31:58
			we're not even gonna count it.
		
00:31:58 --> 00:32:00
			But that is the last generation.
		
00:32:00 --> 00:32:01
			So that's the major signs.
		
00:32:01 --> 00:32:04
			The minor signs, if the major ones are
		
00:32:04 --> 00:32:05
			10, how many are the minor?
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:07
			There's no number.
		
00:32:07 --> 00:32:08
			The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam did not give
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:08
			a number.
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:09
			There's hundreds.
		
00:32:10 --> 00:32:11
			There's hundreds, I would say at the very
		
00:32:11 --> 00:32:15
			least, tens of authentic, undisputed minor signs.
		
00:32:16 --> 00:32:17
			Now the minor signs, why they're called minor
		
00:32:17 --> 00:32:20
			is because they do not give any immediacy.
		
00:32:21 --> 00:32:22
			It's not immediate that the Day of Judgment
		
00:32:22 --> 00:32:22
			will come.
		
00:32:23 --> 00:32:24
			As we said, two of the signs of
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:26
			the Day of Judgment was the Risalah, the
		
00:32:26 --> 00:32:29
			Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam being sent, and his
		
00:32:29 --> 00:32:31
			death was another sign, Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:32:31 --> 00:32:33
			And the tall buildings, they've been going on
		
00:32:33 --> 00:32:34
			for a while, that's another sign.
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:37
			The return, the slow return of Arabia to
		
00:32:37 --> 00:32:38
			greenery is another sign.
		
00:32:38 --> 00:32:39
			What are some other signs you've heard of?
		
00:32:40 --> 00:32:42
			Minor signs of the Day of Judgment.
		
00:32:44 --> 00:32:46
			Earthquakes will increase, الزلازل والفتن والقتل.
		
00:32:46 --> 00:32:49
			And death will increase, and war will increase.
		
00:32:49 --> 00:32:51
			And the killer will not have no idea
		
00:32:51 --> 00:32:51
			why he killed.
		
00:32:52 --> 00:32:53
			And the one who was killed will have
		
00:32:53 --> 00:32:54
			no idea why he was killed.
		
00:32:55 --> 00:32:58
			And mass killing will increase, as we're observing
		
00:32:58 --> 00:32:58
			today.
		
00:32:58 --> 00:33:00
			People press a button and they kill with
		
00:33:00 --> 00:33:01
			a bomb, they drop a bomb on 50
		
00:33:01 --> 00:33:02
			civilians.
		
00:33:02 --> 00:33:03
			May Allah Ta'ala punish the oppressor.
		
00:33:04 --> 00:33:05
			These are all minor signs.
		
00:33:05 --> 00:33:06
			What's some other signs?
		
00:33:07 --> 00:33:08
			Say again.
		
00:33:09 --> 00:33:12
			Al-fahisha will increase, corruption and zina, and
		
00:33:12 --> 00:33:15
			foul behavior between genders will become the standard.
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:15
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:33:17 --> 00:33:19
			Time will fly, subhanAllah.
		
00:33:19 --> 00:33:20
			تقارب الزمان.
		
00:33:20 --> 00:33:22
			The Prophet ﷺ just explained it that way.
		
00:33:22 --> 00:33:24
			He didn't give more of an example.
		
00:33:24 --> 00:33:26
			He said, time will feel a lot shorter
		
00:33:26 --> 00:33:27
			and it will come a lot closer together.
		
00:33:27 --> 00:33:28
			And that's what we're feeling.
		
00:33:28 --> 00:33:30
			I mean, subhanAllah.
		
00:33:30 --> 00:33:30
			Yes.
		
00:33:32 --> 00:33:32
			Yes.
		
00:33:33 --> 00:33:34
			This is a very interesting one.
		
00:33:35 --> 00:33:37
			Several hadiths mention different objects will speak to
		
00:33:37 --> 00:33:38
			people.
		
00:33:38 --> 00:33:40
			So an authentic hadith, the Prophet ﷺ mentioned
		
00:33:40 --> 00:33:43
			that a man will step outside of his
		
00:33:43 --> 00:33:47
			home and his shoelace, شراك نعله, or his
		
00:33:47 --> 00:33:50
			whip, صوته, will speak to him about what's
		
00:33:50 --> 00:33:51
			happening at home.
		
00:33:51 --> 00:33:53
			In that hadith later, he said also there
		
00:33:53 --> 00:33:55
			will come a time where the animals, السباع,
		
00:33:56 --> 00:33:59
			which is like four-legged beasts that hunt,
		
00:33:59 --> 00:34:04
			so like predators, so like lions and wolves
		
00:34:04 --> 00:34:07
			and whatnot, they will speak to, well, maybe
		
00:34:07 --> 00:34:08
			not wolves, but anyway, they will speak to
		
00:34:08 --> 00:34:08
			people.
		
00:34:09 --> 00:34:10
			Actually, there's another hadith about wolves too.
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:12
			So that has not just yet happened.
		
00:34:13 --> 00:34:14
			However, the first one, there's a lot of
		
00:34:14 --> 00:34:15
			interpretations.
		
00:34:15 --> 00:34:17
			The first part where شراك نعله, his shoelace,
		
00:34:17 --> 00:34:18
			or his whip.
		
00:34:19 --> 00:34:20
			So in the past, where did they used
		
00:34:20 --> 00:34:21
			to keep whips?
		
00:34:21 --> 00:34:21
			You know, in the cowboy movies.
		
00:34:22 --> 00:34:24
			Where did they store their whip?
		
00:34:25 --> 00:34:26
			Right by their hip, right?
		
00:34:26 --> 00:34:26
			Right on their hip.
		
00:34:27 --> 00:34:28
			So some scholars have mentioned that this is
		
00:34:28 --> 00:34:31
			perhaps, it's not referring to a whip specifically,
		
00:34:31 --> 00:34:34
			it was referring to the holster or the
		
00:34:34 --> 00:34:35
			area where people keep their whips.
		
00:34:35 --> 00:34:36
			Their whip would speak to them.
		
00:34:36 --> 00:34:38
			Or perhaps it was referring to wires, and
		
00:34:38 --> 00:34:39
			that was how the Prophet ﷺ could not
		
00:34:39 --> 00:34:41
			say they will have wires and electricity.
		
00:34:41 --> 00:34:43
			The Sahaba did not know those words.
		
00:34:43 --> 00:34:44
			It would mean nothing.
		
00:34:44 --> 00:34:48
			So he said, شراك نعله, his shoelace or
		
00:34:48 --> 00:34:48
			his whip.
		
00:34:48 --> 00:34:50
			Or perhaps we're entering a zone where those
		
00:34:50 --> 00:34:50
			things will speak.
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:54
			I mean, we already have the technology to
		
00:34:54 --> 00:34:55
			make a shoelace speak already.
		
00:34:55 --> 00:34:57
			I mean, it's already possible.
		
00:34:57 --> 00:34:58
			It's just that we don't do it because
		
00:34:58 --> 00:34:58
			nobody needs that.
		
00:34:59 --> 00:35:00
			But perhaps it was referring to wires.
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:02
			Or at the very least, the inanimate objects
		
00:35:02 --> 00:35:05
			speaking and being able to tell you what's
		
00:35:05 --> 00:35:08
			happening in your home, that's already here, front
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:08
			and center.
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:09
			والله أعلم.
		
00:35:10 --> 00:35:12
			Your phone, you put it right where the
		
00:35:12 --> 00:35:13
			whip is.
		
00:35:14 --> 00:35:16
			Wires resembling شراك نعله, the shoelace specifically.
		
00:35:17 --> 00:35:17
			الله أعلم.
		
00:35:17 --> 00:35:19
			However, the second part of the hadith, which
		
00:35:19 --> 00:35:20
			is authentic, has not yet come.
		
00:35:20 --> 00:35:22
			Although الله أعلم how it will, I am
		
00:35:22 --> 00:35:24
			just as convinced with every fiber of my
		
00:35:24 --> 00:35:26
			being that we will see it, if not
		
00:35:26 --> 00:35:27
			in our lifetime, then the next.
		
00:35:27 --> 00:35:27
			والله أعلم.
		
00:35:27 --> 00:35:29
			That the animals will speak to the people.
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:30
			والله أعلم.
		
00:35:30 --> 00:35:31
			What's some other signs?
		
00:35:36 --> 00:35:36
			Her master.
		
00:35:36 --> 00:35:38
			The mother will give birth to her master,
		
00:35:38 --> 00:35:39
			which comes in a lot of interpretations.
		
00:35:40 --> 00:35:43
			That's another characteristic of the minor signs that
		
00:35:43 --> 00:35:45
			they are more general, more broad, and they
		
00:35:45 --> 00:35:46
			happen over large periods of time, and they're
		
00:35:46 --> 00:35:48
			not as easily explained.
		
00:35:48 --> 00:35:49
			Some of them are open to interpretation.
		
00:35:49 --> 00:35:51
			Some of them are very clear-cut, like
		
00:35:51 --> 00:35:54
			the conquest of Constantinople, or the Muslims, the
		
00:35:54 --> 00:35:55
			Prophet ﷺ said the Muslims will sail the
		
00:35:55 --> 00:35:56
			ocean as a navy.
		
00:35:57 --> 00:35:59
			And that didn't occur until year 90-something,
		
00:35:59 --> 00:35:59
			right?
		
00:35:59 --> 00:36:01
			After the Prophet ﷺ passed away, and it
		
00:36:01 --> 00:36:03
			occurred, and the Muslims will have this land.
		
00:36:03 --> 00:36:05
			Also the Prophet ﷺ, by the way, here's
		
00:36:05 --> 00:36:06
			a hidden one.
		
00:36:07 --> 00:36:09
			Many hadiths in which Prophet Muhammad ﷺ speaks
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:12
			about Yemen, and Egypt, and Iraq, and Asham,
		
00:36:12 --> 00:36:16
			which is Syria, and Lebanon, and Palestine.
		
00:36:16 --> 00:36:17
			He speaks about them as if they are
		
00:36:17 --> 00:36:19
			Muslim lands, right?
		
00:36:20 --> 00:36:23
			He says, عِرَاكُنَا اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي يَمَنِنَا
		
00:36:23 --> 00:36:25
			وَفِي شَامِنَا Oh Allah, bless our Yemen, and
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:26
			bless our Sham.
		
00:36:26 --> 00:36:27
			That's a hadith of the Prophet ﷺ.
		
00:36:28 --> 00:36:31
			But Asham and Yemen, during his lifetime, was
		
00:36:31 --> 00:36:32
			not a Muslim country.
		
00:36:33 --> 00:36:34
			Right?
		
00:36:34 --> 00:36:35
			We speak about that, we hear these hadiths,
		
00:36:35 --> 00:36:37
			and we say, oh, it doesn't occur to
		
00:36:37 --> 00:36:39
			us that he's speaking just so frankly.
		
00:36:39 --> 00:36:41
			Like these are obviously Muslim countries.
		
00:36:41 --> 00:36:41
			They weren't yet.
		
00:36:42 --> 00:36:44
			They took another hundred years to like be
		
00:36:44 --> 00:36:44
			cemented.
		
00:36:45 --> 00:36:46
			Like we speak about Egyptians now as if
		
00:36:46 --> 00:36:46
			they're Arabs.
		
00:36:47 --> 00:36:50
			Egyptians for the most part are Arabized in
		
00:36:50 --> 00:36:51
			all of North Africa.
		
00:36:51 --> 00:36:53
			They're not classical Arabs.
		
00:36:53 --> 00:36:54
			I mean it's a lot of mixture of
		
00:36:54 --> 00:36:56
			blood, so there is classic blood there.
		
00:36:56 --> 00:36:59
			But Egypt took 200 plus years to become
		
00:36:59 --> 00:37:01
			like Arab, primarily Arabic speaking and Muslim.
		
00:37:02 --> 00:37:04
			And Egypt wasn't a war, a place of
		
00:37:04 --> 00:37:05
			war, it was a place of conversion mostly
		
00:37:05 --> 00:37:06
			for 200 years.
		
00:37:06 --> 00:37:08
			My point is, when the Prophet ﷺ says
		
00:37:08 --> 00:37:11
			about a future, one of the prophecies, he
		
00:37:11 --> 00:37:14
			says that the, I'm paraphrasing, it's a long
		
00:37:14 --> 00:37:15
			hadith, I don't have the wording with me,
		
00:37:15 --> 00:37:18
			that Egypt and Iraq and Sham will be
		
00:37:18 --> 00:37:20
			ruined, basically.
		
00:37:20 --> 00:37:22
			And they will have less bread and less
		
00:37:22 --> 00:37:25
			food, and their umla, their currency will be
		
00:37:25 --> 00:37:26
			debased, it will be ruined.
		
00:37:26 --> 00:37:27
			He mentioned those three countries ﷺ.
		
00:37:28 --> 00:37:31
			And he said, Egypt and Sham and Iraq.
		
00:37:32 --> 00:37:34
			And you're saying, he's talking about them as
		
00:37:34 --> 00:37:35
			if they were the Muslim countries.
		
00:37:35 --> 00:37:36
			They weren't at his time ﷺ.
		
00:37:36 --> 00:37:38
			But he saw the future, Allah gave him
		
00:37:38 --> 00:37:39
			that vision.
		
00:37:39 --> 00:37:41
			And they were 100% Muslim countries.
		
00:37:41 --> 00:37:42
			Now it's like ubiquitous.
		
00:37:42 --> 00:37:45
			We cannot unsee these countries as Muslim countries,
		
00:37:45 --> 00:37:45
			right?
		
00:37:45 --> 00:37:47
			So that's a hidden prophecy there.
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:51
			And he said ﷺ that Persia will fall
		
00:37:51 --> 00:37:53
			and it will become Muslim from then onwards
		
00:37:53 --> 00:37:54
			and so on and so forth.
		
00:37:54 --> 00:37:55
			What about that riba?
		
00:37:56 --> 00:37:59
			Riba will be so widespread that even those
		
00:37:59 --> 00:38:01
			who avoid it will be affected by its
		
00:38:01 --> 00:38:02
			dust.
		
00:38:02 --> 00:38:03
			Right?
		
00:38:03 --> 00:38:04
			You know this famous hadith.
		
00:38:04 --> 00:38:06
			I mean, you could not have said it
		
00:38:06 --> 00:38:09
			more, more like accurate about our time.
		
00:38:09 --> 00:38:10
			Many, many hadiths.
		
00:38:10 --> 00:38:13
			So these are all the minor signs of
		
00:38:13 --> 00:38:13
			the Day of Judgment.
		
00:38:14 --> 00:38:15
			And there's many more.
		
00:38:19 --> 00:38:20
			Yes, wildfires will increase.
		
00:38:21 --> 00:38:23
			But there's specifically about the fires, the three
		
00:38:23 --> 00:38:25
			fires, the fires, those are the major signs.
		
00:38:26 --> 00:38:27
			So there's landslides, sorry.
		
00:38:28 --> 00:38:29
			Landslides are the major signs.
		
00:38:30 --> 00:38:31
			But they're the last.
		
00:38:31 --> 00:38:33
			In fact, you know, some scholars don't, like
		
00:38:33 --> 00:38:35
			it's not exactly perhaps the very last one.
		
00:38:35 --> 00:38:37
			But there will be a great major, major
		
00:38:37 --> 00:38:39
			fire at the very last, the end of
		
00:38:39 --> 00:38:40
			times.
		
00:38:40 --> 00:38:41
			And I pray that we are not alive
		
00:38:41 --> 00:38:42
			to see that one.
		
00:38:42 --> 00:38:43
			But that is one of the last signs
		
00:38:43 --> 00:38:44
			of the Day of Judgment.
		
00:38:45 --> 00:38:46
			It's the very last generation of people.
		
00:38:46 --> 00:38:48
			We should not, we should not hope to
		
00:38:48 --> 00:38:49
			be alive at that time.
		
00:38:49 --> 00:38:51
			Now there's a sign that is very popular
		
00:38:51 --> 00:38:52
			that I have not mentioned yet whatsoever.
		
00:38:55 --> 00:38:55
			Al-Mahdi.
		
00:38:56 --> 00:38:57
			Al-Mahdi.
		
00:38:57 --> 00:39:00
			Do Muslims, like, is it authentic to believe
		
00:39:00 --> 00:39:00
			in Al-Mahdi?
		
00:39:01 --> 00:39:02
			Who says yes?
		
00:39:02 --> 00:39:02
			Raise your hand.
		
00:39:04 --> 00:39:04
			Who says no?
		
00:39:06 --> 00:39:06
			Okay.
		
00:39:06 --> 00:39:07
			Yeah, that's good.
		
00:39:07 --> 00:39:08
			It is authentic.
		
00:39:08 --> 00:39:10
			And we have somebody named Mahdi here, right?
		
00:39:10 --> 00:39:10
			That's correct.
		
00:39:10 --> 00:39:12
			So we have Al-Mahdi.
		
00:39:12 --> 00:39:14
			Al-Mahdi is a title.
		
00:39:16 --> 00:39:18
			The Prophet ﷺ said, so yes, it is
		
00:39:18 --> 00:39:18
			authentic.
		
00:39:19 --> 00:39:20
			Al-Mahdi is authentic.
		
00:39:20 --> 00:39:23
			Very few scholars have said that they have
		
00:39:23 --> 00:39:23
			some dispute.
		
00:39:23 --> 00:39:25
			The majority of scholars throughout history have said,
		
00:39:25 --> 00:39:27
			these hadiths are reliable, there's plenty of them.
		
00:39:27 --> 00:39:29
			Now I say this because our Shia brothers
		
00:39:29 --> 00:39:30
			and sisters, may Allah bless them.
		
00:39:32 --> 00:39:34
			It is not unjust for me to say,
		
00:39:34 --> 00:39:35
			I do have concerns.
		
00:39:35 --> 00:39:37
			I do have concerns with a lot of
		
00:39:37 --> 00:39:40
			the literature, a lot of the rhetoric, that
		
00:39:40 --> 00:39:43
			they present about this figure in particular, Al
		
00:39:43 --> 00:39:43
			-Mahdi.
		
00:39:44 --> 00:39:46
			And my only question, I have some friends
		
00:39:46 --> 00:39:47
			who are of that persuasion.
		
00:39:47 --> 00:39:49
			And I tell them, my only question, I
		
00:39:49 --> 00:39:50
			try to be as respectful as possible.
		
00:39:50 --> 00:39:51
			I don't like to create division for the
		
00:39:51 --> 00:39:52
			sake of it.
		
00:39:52 --> 00:39:54
			But I tell them, all I ask is
		
00:39:54 --> 00:39:55
			that you can trace it back to Quran
		
00:39:55 --> 00:39:56
			or authentic hadith.
		
00:39:57 --> 00:39:57
			That's it.
		
00:39:57 --> 00:39:59
			Do not tell me, don't add additional details,
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:02
			because that is a big, big, big problem.
		
00:40:02 --> 00:40:03
			That is what the Christians and the Jews
		
00:40:03 --> 00:40:03
			did.
		
00:40:04 --> 00:40:07
			They added details, and now they threw themselves
		
00:40:07 --> 00:40:11
			in the worst sort of trap.
		
00:40:11 --> 00:40:13
			The worst possible trap, the trap of kufr
		
00:40:13 --> 00:40:13
			and shirk.
		
00:40:14 --> 00:40:14
			I'll give you an example.
		
00:40:16 --> 00:40:18
			The Muslims, the Jews, and the Christians are
		
00:40:18 --> 00:40:19
			all awaiting a Messiah.
		
00:40:19 --> 00:40:19
			Correct?
		
00:40:20 --> 00:40:20
			Yes or no?
		
00:40:21 --> 00:40:22
			The Jews, when the Messiah showed up the
		
00:40:22 --> 00:40:23
			first time, they rejected him.
		
00:40:24 --> 00:40:25
			And now they set themselves up for a
		
00:40:25 --> 00:40:25
			trap.
		
00:40:26 --> 00:40:27
			They're gonna reject him a second time, because
		
00:40:27 --> 00:40:29
			they rejected him the first time.
		
00:40:29 --> 00:40:31
			So now they're locked in, and they don't
		
00:40:31 --> 00:40:31
			wanna leave.
		
00:40:31 --> 00:40:33
			The ones who are sincere leave, but those
		
00:40:33 --> 00:40:34
			few and far in between.
		
00:40:34 --> 00:40:36
			Now the Christians, how do they depict Jesus
		
00:40:36 --> 00:40:37
			in our era?
		
00:40:38 --> 00:40:40
			Blonde hair, blue eyes.
		
00:40:41 --> 00:40:43
			Does that look like Jesus, alayhis salaam, from
		
00:40:43 --> 00:40:44
			the region he's from?
		
00:40:45 --> 00:40:47
			I mean, even their records don't say that
		
00:40:47 --> 00:40:50
			he had redder skin, he had darker skin,
		
00:40:50 --> 00:40:51
			and he had curly hair.
		
00:40:52 --> 00:40:53
			That's what our records say as well.
		
00:40:54 --> 00:40:55
			Like now you depicted somebody who does not
		
00:40:55 --> 00:40:57
			look at all like the person you're anticipating.
		
00:40:57 --> 00:40:59
			And the Christians are very, I don't know
		
00:40:59 --> 00:41:02
			if I'm pronouncing the word correctly, messianic or
		
00:41:02 --> 00:41:02
			whatever.
		
00:41:02 --> 00:41:04
			They're awaiting a messiah.
		
00:41:04 --> 00:41:05
			It's a very big part of their belief
		
00:41:05 --> 00:41:05
			system.
		
00:41:06 --> 00:41:08
			They are very, I cannot wait for the
		
00:41:08 --> 00:41:09
			return of the Christ.
		
00:41:10 --> 00:41:12
			So which Christ are they waiting for?
		
00:41:13 --> 00:41:15
			Also don't forget, they are waiting for a
		
00:41:15 --> 00:41:16
			man to come and tell them, worship me.
		
00:41:17 --> 00:41:18
			Who's that gonna be?
		
00:41:19 --> 00:41:19
			Dajjal.
		
00:41:20 --> 00:41:22
			So look how they added details, and landed
		
00:41:22 --> 00:41:23
			themselves in a trap.
		
00:41:23 --> 00:41:24
			When Isa alayhis salaam comes, and he has
		
00:41:24 --> 00:41:26
			curly hair, and he looks like an Arab,
		
00:41:27 --> 00:41:27
			who they reject.
		
00:41:28 --> 00:41:30
			I remember one sheikh was saying, this is
		
00:41:30 --> 00:41:33
			like during Trump's first term, if Jesus, when
		
00:41:33 --> 00:41:34
			they're saying ban the Muslims, he said, if
		
00:41:34 --> 00:41:37
			Jesus himself alayhis salaam returned and tried to
		
00:41:37 --> 00:41:38
			come to America, you would ban him.
		
00:41:39 --> 00:41:41
			Because he looks like the people you hate.
		
00:41:41 --> 00:41:42
			This is the person you worship.
		
00:41:43 --> 00:41:44
			That's insane, isn't it?
		
00:41:45 --> 00:41:46
			They've set themselves in such a trap that
		
00:41:46 --> 00:41:49
			the person they claim to wait for for
		
00:41:49 --> 00:41:51
			2,000 years straight, when he does return,
		
00:41:51 --> 00:41:53
			and he will return inshaAllah, they set themselves
		
00:41:53 --> 00:41:54
			up to reject him.
		
00:41:55 --> 00:41:56
			That's the scariest thing ever.
		
00:41:56 --> 00:41:57
			And who will they worship?
		
00:41:57 --> 00:41:59
			They worship the guy who says, worship me.
		
00:41:59 --> 00:42:00
			And he's ready.
		
00:42:00 --> 00:42:01
			He said, yeah, fine, worship me.
		
00:42:01 --> 00:42:01
			You ready?
		
00:42:01 --> 00:42:02
			You guys are waiting for somebody to bow
		
00:42:02 --> 00:42:03
			to?
		
00:42:03 --> 00:42:03
			Bow to me.
		
00:42:04 --> 00:42:04
			And guess what?
		
00:42:04 --> 00:42:05
			I'll bring back your parents, and I'll tell
		
00:42:05 --> 00:42:06
			you, I'll bring you gold.
		
00:42:06 --> 00:42:08
			The Prophet alayhis salaam said, he will extract
		
00:42:08 --> 00:42:10
			the gold and the jewels from the lands,
		
00:42:10 --> 00:42:12
			and it will reign in his lands, but
		
00:42:12 --> 00:42:13
			not in other lands.
		
00:42:13 --> 00:42:15
			He will have a lot of fitna with
		
00:42:15 --> 00:42:15
			him.
		
00:42:15 --> 00:42:16
			And they will worship, they'll bow down to
		
00:42:16 --> 00:42:16
			him.
		
00:42:17 --> 00:42:19
			The Prophet alayhis salaam told us, how do
		
00:42:19 --> 00:42:20
			you know that the jinn is a fake?
		
00:42:20 --> 00:42:21
			He will ask you to worship him.
		
00:42:21 --> 00:42:22
			There's many other signs.
		
00:42:22 --> 00:42:25
			But he said, no prophet of God, no
		
00:42:25 --> 00:42:27
			sincere believer, no leader will ever tell you
		
00:42:27 --> 00:42:28
			to ever bow to him or worship him
		
00:42:28 --> 00:42:28
			or anything.
		
00:42:28 --> 00:42:29
			Period.
		
00:42:29 --> 00:42:31
			And Dajjal is one-eyed, and your Lord
		
00:42:31 --> 00:42:32
			is not one-eyed, and so on and
		
00:42:32 --> 00:42:32
			so forth.
		
00:42:32 --> 00:42:35
			And Dajjal comes first, then Isa alayhis salaam.
		
00:42:35 --> 00:42:36
			Because Isa comes to destroy him.
		
00:42:37 --> 00:42:40
			So the Christians are awaiting Dajjal and Isa.
		
00:42:41 --> 00:42:42
			They believe in an Antichrist as well.
		
00:42:43 --> 00:42:44
			And so do the Jews.
		
00:42:44 --> 00:42:44
			They believe in Antichrist.
		
00:42:45 --> 00:42:47
			So some scholars have mentioned, because Allah says,
		
00:42:47 --> 00:42:50
			وَإِن مِّنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ إِلَّا لَيُؤْمِنَنَّ بِهِ قَبْلَ
		
00:42:50 --> 00:42:53
			مَوْتِهِ Allah says in the Quran, the people
		
00:42:53 --> 00:42:55
			of Ahlul Kitab, every last one of them,
		
00:42:55 --> 00:42:57
			by the time of his death, Isa alayhis
		
00:42:57 --> 00:42:59
			salaam, his natural life and death, which is
		
00:42:59 --> 00:43:01
			roughly, some scholars mentioned, based on hadith, 40
		
00:43:01 --> 00:43:02
			years.
		
00:43:02 --> 00:43:03
			He'll come and stay for 40 years.
		
00:43:04 --> 00:43:05
			By the end of his life, every person
		
00:43:05 --> 00:43:07
			of Ahlul Kitab will either have fought him
		
00:43:07 --> 00:43:08
			or believed in him.
		
00:43:09 --> 00:43:12
			Meaning some will initially, this is my theory.
		
00:43:13 --> 00:43:17
			When Dajjal comes, they will initially worship him
		
00:43:17 --> 00:43:18
			because that's who they wait for.
		
00:43:18 --> 00:43:20
			But when Isa alayhis salaam comes and kills
		
00:43:20 --> 00:43:22
			Dajjal, and he has all the signs of
		
00:43:22 --> 00:43:23
			Jesus, some Christians will snap out of it.
		
00:43:23 --> 00:43:25
			They will be gifted with that and say,
		
00:43:25 --> 00:43:26
			well, our God just died.
		
00:43:27 --> 00:43:29
			And clearly this is the right Christ.
		
00:43:29 --> 00:43:30
			And they will snap out of it and
		
00:43:30 --> 00:43:33
			worship, not worship, astaghfirullah, they will submit to
		
00:43:33 --> 00:43:35
			Allah, say la ilaha illallah Muhammad rasulullah and
		
00:43:35 --> 00:43:37
			follow Isa alayhis salaam, the correct Isa, and
		
00:43:37 --> 00:43:38
			become a believer.
		
00:43:38 --> 00:43:41
			And this is supported by the ayah, وَإِن
		
00:43:41 --> 00:43:43
			مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ إِلَّا لَيُؤْمِنَنَّ بِهِ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ
		
00:43:43 --> 00:43:44
			That is not my thesis.
		
00:43:45 --> 00:43:47
			My addition was that part about, well, I
		
00:43:47 --> 00:43:49
			can assume that some people when Dajjal is
		
00:43:49 --> 00:43:50
			killed, they will snap out of it.
		
00:43:50 --> 00:43:50
			That makes sense, right?
		
00:43:51 --> 00:43:53
			But that ayah, the scholars have talked about
		
00:43:53 --> 00:43:55
			it in the tafsir, that is what that
		
00:43:55 --> 00:43:57
			means, that some Christians and Jews will accept
		
00:43:57 --> 00:43:59
			Isa alayhis salaam as a prophet and become
		
00:43:59 --> 00:44:00
			believers in the last days.
		
00:44:01 --> 00:44:03
			So we said Isa alayhis salaam will stick
		
00:44:03 --> 00:44:05
			around roughly, the estimates are from 7 to
		
00:44:05 --> 00:44:06
			40 years.
		
00:44:07 --> 00:44:08
			How long will Dajjal be here?
		
00:44:12 --> 00:44:13
			40 days.
		
00:44:14 --> 00:44:16
			But, there's a but.
		
00:44:17 --> 00:44:22
			But the first day will feel like a
		
00:44:22 --> 00:44:22
			year.
		
00:44:23 --> 00:44:24
			The second day will feel like a month.
		
00:44:25 --> 00:44:26
			The third day will feel like a week.
		
00:44:27 --> 00:44:29
			And the next 37 days will be regular
		
00:44:29 --> 00:44:29
			days.
		
00:44:29 --> 00:44:32
			So it will be one year, one month,
		
00:44:33 --> 00:44:34
			one week and 37 days.
		
00:44:35 --> 00:44:38
			One year and two months, plus minus.
		
00:44:39 --> 00:44:40
			So the Prophet ﷺ said, this will be
		
00:44:40 --> 00:44:42
			the biggest test mankind has ever faced.
		
00:44:42 --> 00:44:44
			And it will last for about a year
		
00:44:44 --> 00:44:44
			and two months.
		
00:44:44 --> 00:44:46
			The believers will be at starvation's door.
		
00:44:48 --> 00:44:49
			The Prophet ﷺ said, the crops will not
		
00:44:49 --> 00:44:50
			grow in the land of the believers.
		
00:44:51 --> 00:44:52
			It will not rain in the land of
		
00:44:52 --> 00:44:53
			the believers, only in the land of Dajjal.
		
00:44:53 --> 00:44:54
			That's how tough the test will be.
		
00:44:55 --> 00:44:56
			But he said, be patient.
		
00:44:56 --> 00:44:57
			It is a year and two months.
		
00:44:58 --> 00:44:59
			So you can be patient for a year
		
00:44:59 --> 00:45:00
			and two months.
		
00:45:00 --> 00:45:02
			And the Sahaba, they were so, their biggest
		
00:45:02 --> 00:45:03
			concern was not if we're going to eat.
		
00:45:03 --> 00:45:04
			They said, what did they say?
		
00:45:06 --> 00:45:07
			Ya Umas and Jablah, how will we pray?
		
00:45:08 --> 00:45:09
			Should we pray just 40 days worth or
		
00:45:09 --> 00:45:10
			a year and two months worth?
		
00:45:10 --> 00:45:11
			He said, no, pray the year and two
		
00:45:11 --> 00:45:12
			months.
		
00:45:12 --> 00:45:13
			I'm paraphrasing of course.
		
00:45:13 --> 00:45:14
			That was their biggest concern, subhanAllah.
		
00:45:14 --> 00:45:16
			May Allah allow us to follow in their
		
00:45:16 --> 00:45:17
			footsteps and may Allah accept them.
		
00:45:18 --> 00:45:19
			So it's a short time and it's a
		
00:45:19 --> 00:45:20
			time of extreme patience.
		
00:45:21 --> 00:45:23
			And the Prophet ﷺ said, the believers will
		
00:45:23 --> 00:45:25
			receive sustenance through their Tasbeeh and their Tahlil.
		
00:45:26 --> 00:45:28
			SubhanAllah, walhamdulillah, wa la ilaha illallah, wa Allahu
		
00:45:28 --> 00:45:29
			akbar, wa la haram ala quwwata illallah.
		
00:45:29 --> 00:45:30
			That will be their food and drink for
		
00:45:30 --> 00:45:31
			the time being.
		
00:45:31 --> 00:45:32
			It will be a very difficult time.
		
00:45:32 --> 00:45:33
			May Allah protect us from it.
		
00:45:34 --> 00:45:36
			Okay, so I didn't mention Mahdi.
		
00:45:36 --> 00:45:37
			Not because he's not authentic.
		
00:45:37 --> 00:45:38
			Mahdi is absolutely authentic.
		
00:45:39 --> 00:45:40
			And Mahdi is a whole topic by himself.
		
00:45:41 --> 00:45:42
			He is actually one of the, is he
		
00:45:42 --> 00:45:43
			a major sign or a minor sign?
		
00:45:45 --> 00:45:45
			Who says major?
		
00:45:46 --> 00:45:46
			Raise your hand.
		
00:45:47 --> 00:45:48
			Who says minor?
		
00:45:49 --> 00:45:51
			He is absolutely a minor sign.
		
00:45:52 --> 00:45:53
			He's not mentioned in any of the hadiths
		
00:45:53 --> 00:45:55
			about the major signs, the 10 major signs
		
00:45:55 --> 00:45:57
			of the Day of Judgment.
		
00:45:57 --> 00:45:59
			And the Prophet ﷺ said, count 10 major
		
00:45:59 --> 00:45:59
			signs.
		
00:45:59 --> 00:46:01
			He said it himself, that exact number.
		
00:46:01 --> 00:46:02
			Mahdi is not a major sign.
		
00:46:02 --> 00:46:03
			He's a minor sign.
		
00:46:03 --> 00:46:05
			He's in fact one of the absolute last
		
00:46:05 --> 00:46:06
			of the minor signs.
		
00:46:07 --> 00:46:11
			But that doesn't make him any less valuable,
		
00:46:11 --> 00:46:12
			but it's just to give you a timeline.
		
00:46:13 --> 00:46:14
			And Mahdi will come.
		
00:46:14 --> 00:46:16
			We don't know if he will meet Isa
		
00:46:16 --> 00:46:17
			ﷺ directly.
		
00:46:17 --> 00:46:19
			There's a lot of evidence for that, but
		
00:46:19 --> 00:46:20
			it's not clear cut.
		
00:46:20 --> 00:46:23
			And there is, he may live and die
		
00:46:23 --> 00:46:25
			in righteousness and then years might pass and
		
00:46:25 --> 00:46:26
			then Isa ﷺ and Dajjal come.
		
00:46:27 --> 00:46:28
			So only Allah knows.
		
00:46:28 --> 00:46:31
			However, Al-Mahdi, it refers to, it's translated
		
00:46:31 --> 00:46:33
			as the guided one, the rightly guided one.
		
00:46:34 --> 00:46:35
			He will be a person from the lineage
		
00:46:35 --> 00:46:36
			of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.
		
00:46:36 --> 00:46:39
			He will descend, his bloodline will go back
		
00:46:39 --> 00:46:39
			to Muhammad ﷺ.
		
00:46:40 --> 00:46:42
			His name will be like the Prophet's name,
		
00:46:42 --> 00:46:43
			and his father's name will be like the
		
00:46:43 --> 00:46:44
			Prophet's father's name.
		
00:46:45 --> 00:46:46
			So his name will be either Muhammad ibn
		
00:46:46 --> 00:46:49
			Abdullah, Muhammad the son of Abdullah, or Ahmed
		
00:46:49 --> 00:46:51
			ibn Abdullah, Ahmed the son of Abdullah.
		
00:46:51 --> 00:46:52
			One of those two, most likely Muhammad.
		
00:46:53 --> 00:46:56
			However, we will observe and see.
		
00:46:56 --> 00:46:57
			And he will come at a time where
		
00:46:57 --> 00:46:58
			the ummah needs him the most.
		
00:46:59 --> 00:47:00
			And he will be righteous and he will
		
00:47:00 --> 00:47:00
			be sincere.
		
00:47:01 --> 00:47:03
			And a lot of tyrants amongst the Muslim
		
00:47:03 --> 00:47:04
			world will seek to destroy him.
		
00:47:05 --> 00:47:06
			And Allah will not allow him to be
		
00:47:06 --> 00:47:06
			destroyed.
		
00:47:07 --> 00:47:09
			And the sincere will follow him and pledge
		
00:47:09 --> 00:47:09
			to him, of course.
		
00:47:10 --> 00:47:11
			And there will be signs.
		
00:47:11 --> 00:47:12
			We'd have to make this a whole topic
		
00:47:12 --> 00:47:14
			by itself, but it is true, we do
		
00:47:14 --> 00:47:14
			believe in Al-Mahdi.
		
00:47:15 --> 00:47:16
			His name will be Muhammad ibn Abdullah.
		
00:47:17 --> 00:47:19
			And he will be a sincere believer but
		
00:47:19 --> 00:47:22
			beware, because specifically about him, there's a lot,
		
00:47:22 --> 00:47:27
			a lot of fake details, fabricated hadiths, made
		
00:47:27 --> 00:47:28
			up knowledge that is just not true.
		
00:47:28 --> 00:47:29
			And we cannot source it to Qur'an
		
00:47:29 --> 00:47:30
			or Sunnah.
		
00:47:30 --> 00:47:32
			So respectfully, we have to reject it for
		
00:47:32 --> 00:47:33
			our own good.
		
00:47:34 --> 00:47:35
			Because if we add details and we're awaiting
		
00:47:35 --> 00:47:38
			details that are not going to come, we're
		
00:47:38 --> 00:47:39
			going to reject the righteous person when he
		
00:47:39 --> 00:47:40
			shows up.
		
00:47:40 --> 00:47:42
			Because hey, we're waiting for you to come
		
00:47:42 --> 00:47:42
			out of a cave.
		
00:47:42 --> 00:47:44
			We're waiting for you to have X or
		
00:47:44 --> 00:47:44
			Y or Z.
		
00:47:46 --> 00:47:46
			Why are you waiting?
		
00:47:46 --> 00:47:48
			Where did you source that detail from?
		
00:47:49 --> 00:47:50
			Same problem that the Christians did.
		
00:47:50 --> 00:47:52
			They're waiting for things that Isa a.s.
		
00:47:52 --> 00:47:53
			did not tell them to wait for.
		
00:47:53 --> 00:47:55
			And they will land them in deep trouble.
		
00:47:55 --> 00:47:56
			May Allah protect us from that.
		
00:47:56 --> 00:47:57
			So that's the threat.
		
00:47:57 --> 00:48:00
			That's the fear of waiting for such, of
		
00:48:00 --> 00:48:02
			adding false details.
		
00:48:02 --> 00:48:04
			You end up following the wrong people and
		
00:48:04 --> 00:48:06
			you reject the right people at the most
		
00:48:06 --> 00:48:08
			critical times when you cannot afford to make
		
00:48:08 --> 00:48:08
			that such a mistake.
		
00:48:09 --> 00:48:10
			May Allah protect us from that.
		
00:48:10 --> 00:48:10
			Alright.
		
00:48:11 --> 00:48:13
			So now, let's answer a question.
		
00:48:14 --> 00:48:17
			What is the point of believing in the
		
00:48:17 --> 00:48:18
			signs of the Day of Judgment?
		
00:48:18 --> 00:48:19
			It's very fascinating stuff.
		
00:48:19 --> 00:48:20
			It's very captivating.
		
00:48:20 --> 00:48:21
			Oh my God, I can't believe it.
		
00:48:21 --> 00:48:24
			But what value is there to us as
		
00:48:24 --> 00:48:24
			believers?
		
00:48:24 --> 00:48:26
			Because Allah only gives us information that's valuable.
		
00:48:27 --> 00:48:28
			So what do we benefit?
		
00:48:29 --> 00:48:29
			Yes.
		
00:48:32 --> 00:48:33
			Okay, number one.
		
00:48:33 --> 00:48:35
			Some of them, if you face them, you
		
00:48:35 --> 00:48:36
			know what to expect and what to do.
		
00:48:36 --> 00:48:37
			Because some of them, there's nothing to do
		
00:48:37 --> 00:48:38
			about it.
		
00:48:38 --> 00:48:39
			Like the tall buildings one.
		
00:48:39 --> 00:48:41
			Like what's different?
		
00:48:41 --> 00:48:42
			There's no actionable item.
		
00:48:42 --> 00:48:44
			But, so you face it.
		
00:48:44 --> 00:48:45
			If you face the Jal, the Prophet ﷺ
		
00:48:45 --> 00:48:47
			said, what did he give advice?
		
00:48:48 --> 00:48:48
			He said, run away.
		
00:48:49 --> 00:48:50
			You will not defeat him until Isa ﷺ
		
00:48:50 --> 00:48:51
			is the only one who can defeat him.
		
00:48:52 --> 00:48:53
			And a believer will walk up to him
		
00:48:53 --> 00:48:55
			intending to challenge him and will leave the
		
00:48:55 --> 00:48:57
			conversation having believed in him.
		
00:48:57 --> 00:48:59
			Because he's so convincing and so powerful and
		
00:48:59 --> 00:49:00
			so threatening.
		
00:49:00 --> 00:49:02
			One way or the other, he'll convince you
		
00:49:02 --> 00:49:04
			either by the magic tricks or by pressure.
		
00:49:05 --> 00:49:06
			Killing you on the spot.
		
00:49:06 --> 00:49:06
			Some people will fall.
		
00:49:06 --> 00:49:07
			He said, do not challenge him.
		
00:49:08 --> 00:49:08
			Run.
		
00:49:08 --> 00:49:10
			Some believers will and they will be shuhada
		
00:49:10 --> 00:49:11
			and may Allah accept them.
		
00:49:11 --> 00:49:13
			But he said, my advice to you is
		
00:49:13 --> 00:49:14
			to go the opposite direction.
		
00:49:14 --> 00:49:15
			So, you know what to expect.
		
00:49:15 --> 00:49:17
			Some of them are not actionable in that
		
00:49:17 --> 00:49:17
			regard.
		
00:49:17 --> 00:49:18
			There's nothing to do about it.
		
00:49:18 --> 00:49:20
			Like the widespread riba.
		
00:49:20 --> 00:49:22
			Try to avoid it but we already knew
		
00:49:22 --> 00:49:22
			that.
		
00:49:22 --> 00:49:24
			But it just, what's the value of the
		
00:49:24 --> 00:49:26
			ones that we can't really do anything about?
		
00:49:26 --> 00:49:28
			Like the tall buildings and the Mecca becoming
		
00:49:28 --> 00:49:29
			more green and stuff.
		
00:49:29 --> 00:49:31
			What value do we derive from those ones?
		
00:49:34 --> 00:49:34
			Yes?
		
00:49:36 --> 00:49:40
			هذا ما وعدنا الله ورسوله وصدق الله ورسوله
		
00:49:40 --> 00:49:43
			وما زادهم إلا إيمانا وتسليما You say, oh,
		
00:49:43 --> 00:49:45
			this is exactly what the Prophet ﷺ said.
		
00:49:45 --> 00:49:46
			Look at this.
		
00:49:46 --> 00:49:47
			It's happening exactly.
		
00:49:47 --> 00:49:48
			The barefoot Arabs are building the tallest buildings.
		
00:49:49 --> 00:49:49
			Look at that.
		
00:49:49 --> 00:49:50
			Mecca's becoming green again.
		
00:49:50 --> 00:49:52
			Look, proof that Mecca was green once upon
		
00:49:52 --> 00:49:52
			a time.
		
00:49:52 --> 00:49:54
			Look, it's exactly like everything.
		
00:49:54 --> 00:49:54
			What else?
		
00:49:54 --> 00:49:56
			We have a whole, we have a lot
		
00:49:56 --> 00:49:57
			of lists of the minor signs of the
		
00:49:57 --> 00:49:57
			day of judgment.
		
00:49:57 --> 00:49:59
			Honesty will be taken away from the people.
		
00:49:59 --> 00:50:00
			There will come a time where the people
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:01
			will consume riba.
		
00:50:01 --> 00:50:03
			Whoever does not consume it will be affected
		
00:50:03 --> 00:50:03
			by its dust.
		
00:50:04 --> 00:50:06
			The sun will rise from the west.
		
00:50:06 --> 00:50:07
			That's the very end.
		
00:50:09 --> 00:50:10
			Many others.
		
00:50:10 --> 00:50:11
			We mentioned plenty, right?
		
00:50:12 --> 00:50:13
			Ignorance will prevail.
		
00:50:14 --> 00:50:16
			Alcoholic drinks will be common and so on
		
00:50:16 --> 00:50:16
			and so forth.
		
00:50:16 --> 00:50:18
			So yes, when you see it happening for
		
00:50:18 --> 00:50:20
			your eyes, it increases your iman.
		
00:50:20 --> 00:50:23
			When you're dealing with difficulty, it increases your
		
00:50:23 --> 00:50:23
			iman.
		
00:50:23 --> 00:50:25
			Say, no, I cannot doubt my faith because
		
00:50:25 --> 00:50:27
			look at the hundreds of prophecies that have
		
00:50:27 --> 00:50:28
			come true right before my eyes.
		
00:50:29 --> 00:50:30
			ما ينطق عن الهوى إن هو إلا وحي
		
00:50:30 --> 00:50:32
			نيوحى The only person who could possibly have
		
00:50:32 --> 00:50:34
			said this is someone who has revelation from
		
00:50:34 --> 00:50:34
			God.
		
00:50:35 --> 00:50:35
			So I'm going to keep my faith.
		
00:50:36 --> 00:50:38
			Also, when the Prophet ﷺ told us about
		
00:50:38 --> 00:50:41
			difficulties that will arise and he said, be
		
00:50:41 --> 00:50:44
			patient because there will be farajan qareeban أَلَا
		
00:50:44 --> 00:50:46
			إِنَّ نَصْرَ اللَّهِ قَرِيبٌ Indeed, Allah's victory is
		
00:50:46 --> 00:50:47
			near.
		
00:50:47 --> 00:50:48
			Good will prevail after evil.
		
00:50:49 --> 00:50:50
			He gives you strength to keep going.
		
00:50:51 --> 00:50:51
			Right?
		
00:50:52 --> 00:50:54
			When the Prophet ﷺ said, يُوشَكُ أَن تَدَاعَ
		
00:50:54 --> 00:50:58
			عَلَيْكُمُ الْأُمَمِ He said, one day, every nation
		
00:50:58 --> 00:51:00
			will gather around you and they will pick
		
00:51:00 --> 00:51:02
			you apart the same way they pick food
		
00:51:02 --> 00:51:04
			from, you know, invite each other to eat
		
00:51:04 --> 00:51:04
			food.
		
00:51:05 --> 00:51:07
			And he said, Allah will not remove this
		
00:51:07 --> 00:51:10
			until you stop fearing death and you stop
		
00:51:10 --> 00:51:12
			hating death so much and you stop حُبِّ
		
00:51:12 --> 00:51:15
			الدُّنْيَا وَكَرَهِيَةُ الْمَوْتِ loving dunya so much and
		
00:51:15 --> 00:51:16
			hating and fearing death.
		
00:51:16 --> 00:51:17
			You got to go back to your roots
		
00:51:17 --> 00:51:19
			as Muslims and be strong, fierce warriors.
		
00:51:19 --> 00:51:21
			Go back to your deen and stop being
		
00:51:21 --> 00:51:22
			obsessed about dunya and Allah will lift this
		
00:51:22 --> 00:51:23
			evil.
		
00:51:23 --> 00:51:25
			So there's an instruction manual about how to
		
00:51:25 --> 00:51:25
			lift this evil.
		
00:51:26 --> 00:51:27
			And when he told us, there will be
		
00:51:27 --> 00:51:31
			مُلْكَنْ عَضًا There will be harsh, difficult tyranny
		
00:51:32 --> 00:51:33
			surrounding the ummah.
		
00:51:33 --> 00:51:35
			And he said, the next generation, we talked
		
00:51:35 --> 00:51:37
			about it in hadith in Jum'ah last
		
00:51:37 --> 00:51:37
			year.
		
00:51:37 --> 00:51:41
			He said, ثُمَّ تَكُونُ خِلَافَةٌ عَلَى مِنْهَاجِ النَّبُوَّةِ
		
00:51:41 --> 00:51:43
			The final stage of my ummah is a
		
00:51:43 --> 00:51:45
			righteous khilafah on the path of prophethood once
		
00:51:45 --> 00:51:46
			again.
		
00:51:46 --> 00:51:48
			So when you see the stage that we're
		
00:51:48 --> 00:51:51
			in, the difficult tyranny that we're watching, you
		
00:51:51 --> 00:51:53
			get reassured and say, I mean, the only
		
00:51:53 --> 00:51:55
			silver lining here is that the next stage
		
00:51:55 --> 00:51:56
			is a righteous, good one, of peace and
		
00:51:56 --> 00:51:56
			prosperity.
		
00:51:57 --> 00:51:57
			Let me power through.
		
00:51:58 --> 00:51:59
			Let me keep planting seeds.
		
00:52:00 --> 00:52:01
			Let me keep doing good because I want
		
00:52:01 --> 00:52:03
			to be part of that and I want
		
00:52:03 --> 00:52:03
			to live to see it.
		
00:52:03 --> 00:52:05
			I know relief is around the corner.
		
00:52:05 --> 00:52:07
			So these are the values that we get
		
00:52:07 --> 00:52:07
			from this.
		
00:52:07 --> 00:52:08
			Another value is that in da'wah.
		
00:52:09 --> 00:52:12
			In da'wah, when somebody accepts Islam, or
		
00:52:12 --> 00:52:14
			when you're convincing somebody about Islam, you tell
		
00:52:14 --> 00:52:16
			him, look at these prophecies that have come
		
00:52:16 --> 00:52:17
			true.
		
00:52:17 --> 00:52:18
			A lot of people who are...
		
00:52:18 --> 00:52:20
			Anybody here who has accepted Islam?
		
00:52:20 --> 00:52:22
			Any converts who this was part of your
		
00:52:22 --> 00:52:22
			journey?
		
00:52:23 --> 00:52:24
			Is there something...
		
00:52:24 --> 00:52:25
			Can you share with us something if you'd
		
00:52:25 --> 00:52:25
			like?
		
00:52:27 --> 00:52:29
			Like what role did this play in your
		
00:52:29 --> 00:52:29
			journey?
		
00:52:31 --> 00:52:32
			Or signs of the Day of Judgment or
		
00:52:32 --> 00:52:33
			prophecies?
		
00:52:33 --> 00:52:34
			Did it play any role?
		
00:52:42 --> 00:52:43
			Yeah.
		
00:52:55 --> 00:52:55
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:52:56 --> 00:52:57
			JazakAllah khair.
		
00:52:58 --> 00:53:00
			So it paints a...
		
00:53:00 --> 00:53:02
			It reassures you about that there's more to
		
00:53:02 --> 00:53:02
			it after death.
		
00:53:03 --> 00:53:04
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:53:04 --> 00:53:06
			So what about like the prophecies?
		
00:53:06 --> 00:53:08
			Did it ever like catch your eye that
		
00:53:08 --> 00:53:10
			prophecies have come true that Islam has made?
		
00:53:15 --> 00:53:16
			Yes.
		
00:53:22 --> 00:53:22
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:53:23 --> 00:53:23
			I read that too.
		
00:53:27 --> 00:53:27
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:53:28 --> 00:53:30
			So it's like winding something.
		
00:53:31 --> 00:53:32
			When you wind something and just wait, you
		
00:53:32 --> 00:53:34
			let go and it just goes the other
		
00:53:34 --> 00:53:34
			way.
		
00:53:34 --> 00:53:35
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:53:35 --> 00:53:37
			I remember reading an article a couple of
		
00:53:37 --> 00:53:37
			weeks ago.
		
00:53:37 --> 00:53:38
			I actually shared it on the internet.
		
00:53:39 --> 00:53:44
			It said that the earth's core has started
		
00:53:44 --> 00:53:44
			to...
		
00:53:44 --> 00:53:45
			The core itself has started to rotate in
		
00:53:45 --> 00:53:46
			the opposite direction.
		
00:53:47 --> 00:53:48
			And I don't know if that's a sign
		
00:53:48 --> 00:53:50
			that it starts with the core then it
		
00:53:50 --> 00:53:51
			becomes the mantle and then the crust.
		
00:53:51 --> 00:53:52
			Allah knows.
		
00:53:52 --> 00:53:54
			But it was a scary article to read.
		
00:53:55 --> 00:53:57
			So it's like signs that the end is
		
00:53:57 --> 00:53:57
			near.
		
00:53:57 --> 00:53:58
			Allah knows.
		
00:53:58 --> 00:53:59
			And the increase of earthquakes, the increase of
		
00:53:59 --> 00:54:00
			wildfires.
		
00:54:00 --> 00:54:02
			This stuff like for me is scary.
		
00:54:02 --> 00:54:04
			Because we've had the biggest wildfires recorded in
		
00:54:04 --> 00:54:05
			human history in the past couple of years.
		
00:54:06 --> 00:54:08
			Millions of acres have burned in the US
		
00:54:08 --> 00:54:08
			and Canada.
		
00:54:08 --> 00:54:09
			Millions.
		
00:54:09 --> 00:54:10
			Like I can't even fathom millions of acres
		
00:54:10 --> 00:54:11
			of trees.
		
00:54:12 --> 00:54:13
			The biggest wildfires.
		
00:54:13 --> 00:54:15
			And the state of our forests in our
		
00:54:15 --> 00:54:17
			era is actually at high alert.
		
00:54:17 --> 00:54:17
			It's very problematic.
		
00:54:18 --> 00:54:19
			We actually had a drought.
		
00:54:20 --> 00:54:22
			The biggest drought in a hundred years in
		
00:54:22 --> 00:54:23
			New York last month.
		
00:54:23 --> 00:54:23
			In October.
		
00:54:24 --> 00:54:24
			Well, two months.
		
00:54:24 --> 00:54:25
			Two, three months ago.
		
00:54:25 --> 00:54:26
			The biggest drought in a hundred years for
		
00:54:26 --> 00:54:27
			that season.
		
00:54:28 --> 00:54:29
			We didn't have rain for like I think
		
00:54:29 --> 00:54:30
			40, 50 days straight which is I think
		
00:54:30 --> 00:54:32
			the first time in like again in a
		
00:54:32 --> 00:54:32
			hundred years in New York.
		
00:54:33 --> 00:54:33
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:54:34 --> 00:54:36
			And they actually had because we went camping
		
00:54:36 --> 00:54:38
			with the youth and they actually had a
		
00:54:38 --> 00:54:39
			wildfire warning for the first time in my
		
00:54:39 --> 00:54:40
			life in that region.
		
00:54:40 --> 00:54:41
			They said, these are the rules.
		
00:54:42 --> 00:54:43
			No fires here, no this.
		
00:54:43 --> 00:54:44
			And I was like, subhanAllah man.
		
00:54:44 --> 00:54:46
			It's a wet season too like October.
		
00:54:46 --> 00:54:48
			So these kind of things are very scary
		
00:54:48 --> 00:54:50
			because the Prophet ﷺ said also before Dajjal
		
00:54:50 --> 00:54:52
			comes there will be droughts and the earth
		
00:54:52 --> 00:54:54
			will withhold its crops and the sky will
		
00:54:54 --> 00:54:55
			withhold its rain.
		
00:54:55 --> 00:54:56
			May Allah protect us from all these things.
		
00:54:57 --> 00:54:59
			So there is value in these things.
		
00:55:00 --> 00:55:01
			Now I'll mention two more things.
		
00:55:01 --> 00:55:02
			I just want to go through the ten
		
00:55:02 --> 00:55:03
			signs very quickly.
		
00:55:04 --> 00:55:06
			And I also want to just say what
		
00:55:06 --> 00:55:07
			is the function?
		
00:55:07 --> 00:55:08
			We said what is the value that what's
		
00:55:08 --> 00:55:09
			the point of believing in them?
		
00:55:10 --> 00:55:11
			It's, we mentioned all these things.
		
00:55:11 --> 00:55:12
			It increases your iman.
		
00:55:13 --> 00:55:14
			Some of them warn you what to do
		
00:55:14 --> 00:55:15
			when it comes, what to avoid.
		
00:55:15 --> 00:55:16
			Dajjal, yajuj, majuj, this and that.
		
00:55:17 --> 00:55:18
			Also who to follow when they come to
		
00:55:18 --> 00:55:20
			know their signs, know what they will bring
		
00:55:20 --> 00:55:21
			and so on and so forth.
		
00:55:23 --> 00:55:24
			Know where problems may occur.
		
00:55:24 --> 00:55:26
			The Prophet ﷺ said the Euphrates River will
		
00:55:26 --> 00:55:29
			dry up and it will uncover a mountain
		
00:55:29 --> 00:55:29
			of gold.
		
00:55:29 --> 00:55:31
			If you are alive at that time, don't
		
00:55:31 --> 00:55:31
			come near it.
		
00:55:32 --> 00:55:34
			Most people will fight for it and most
		
00:55:34 --> 00:55:34
			people will die and fail.
		
00:55:35 --> 00:55:36
			He said do not come near it.
		
00:55:36 --> 00:55:37
			It's cursed basically.
		
00:55:37 --> 00:55:39
			So now when you look up the news,
		
00:55:39 --> 00:55:41
			the Euphrates River which is one of the
		
00:55:41 --> 00:55:44
			biggest rivers in mankind's history has provided civilization
		
00:55:44 --> 00:55:45
			for thousands of years.
		
00:55:46 --> 00:55:48
			They estimate by 2040 it will be fully
		
00:55:48 --> 00:55:48
			dried up.
		
00:55:49 --> 00:55:52
			And if you look at aerial photos and
		
00:55:52 --> 00:55:54
			now 20 years later, it's fascinating.
		
00:55:54 --> 00:55:55
			It's scary.
		
00:55:55 --> 00:55:57
			Check it up when you get some free
		
00:55:57 --> 00:55:57
			time.
		
00:55:57 --> 00:55:59
			Aerial photographs of the Euphrates River.
		
00:55:59 --> 00:56:01
			It's like, I don't know what the number,
		
00:56:01 --> 00:56:03
			it shrunk 50% or more in just
		
00:56:03 --> 00:56:04
			the past couple of decades.
		
00:56:05 --> 00:56:06
			And they're estimating by 2040 it will be
		
00:56:06 --> 00:56:09
			completely or dried up enough that Allah knows
		
00:56:09 --> 00:56:10
			what it will uncover.
		
00:56:11 --> 00:56:13
			We know mountain of gold but what else?
		
00:56:14 --> 00:56:15
			That's a cradle of civilization.
		
00:56:15 --> 00:56:16
			I wonder how many civilizations are buried under
		
00:56:16 --> 00:56:18
			there with all their secrets that will come
		
00:56:18 --> 00:56:19
			out.
		
00:56:19 --> 00:56:21
			So yes, that's a warning of what to
		
00:56:21 --> 00:56:22
			do and what not to do.
		
00:56:23 --> 00:56:24
			But here's a potential pitfall and this is
		
00:56:24 --> 00:56:25
			what I want to end our note with.
		
00:56:27 --> 00:56:29
			Beware of being a doomer gloomer.
		
00:56:30 --> 00:56:31
			You know like doomsday person.
		
00:56:32 --> 00:56:34
			We believe in some prophecies about doomsday.
		
00:56:35 --> 00:56:36
			But the Prophet ﷺ never taught us to
		
00:56:36 --> 00:56:40
			sit, you know, you know, some people like
		
00:56:40 --> 00:56:41
			they go to an extreme.
		
00:56:41 --> 00:56:42
			Right?
		
00:56:42 --> 00:56:44
			And they believe well the end times are
		
00:56:44 --> 00:56:45
			right around the corner.
		
00:56:45 --> 00:56:46
			Everything is collapsing overnight.
		
00:56:47 --> 00:56:51
			And therefore, basically, there's no point participating in
		
00:56:51 --> 00:56:51
			society.
		
00:56:52 --> 00:56:54
			You know, and this happened in 2012.
		
00:56:54 --> 00:56:56
			Remember the Mayan calendar and stuff like that?
		
00:56:56 --> 00:56:57
			You remember all that stuff?
		
00:56:58 --> 00:57:00
			Some people, true story, they sold their property.
		
00:57:01 --> 00:57:02
			Some people maxed out their credit cards.
		
00:57:03 --> 00:57:04
			They got a lot of credit cards, maxed
		
00:57:04 --> 00:57:05
			them out, $40,000, $50,000 and said,
		
00:57:06 --> 00:57:07
			the world's ending in a year.
		
00:57:08 --> 00:57:10
			Some people like sold all their property and
		
00:57:10 --> 00:57:11
			like, they ruined their lives.
		
00:57:12 --> 00:57:13
			This is true story here in America.
		
00:57:13 --> 00:57:15
			And then they just went, you know, basically,
		
00:57:15 --> 00:57:16
			they said, let's live my life.
		
00:57:16 --> 00:57:19
			They went to, got drunk, Las Vegas, and
		
00:57:19 --> 00:57:21
			then a month passes, two months, six months,
		
00:57:21 --> 00:57:23
			they're like, hey, nothing happened.
		
00:57:24 --> 00:57:25
			And now their life is completely ruined.
		
00:57:25 --> 00:57:28
			So that's obviously never been, you know, the
		
00:57:28 --> 00:57:29
			Prophet ﷺ who told us, I was sent
		
00:57:29 --> 00:57:30
			with the hour like this.
		
00:57:31 --> 00:57:33
			He also said, if you have, if the
		
00:57:33 --> 00:57:35
			day of judgment is coming and in your
		
00:57:35 --> 00:57:37
			hand is a fasila, is a plant, what
		
00:57:37 --> 00:57:38
			did he say to do?
		
00:57:39 --> 00:57:39
			Plant it.
		
00:57:39 --> 00:57:40
			He said, if you see the day of
		
00:57:40 --> 00:57:42
			judgment yourself, it's starting now, what's the point?
		
00:57:42 --> 00:57:43
			I want to plant this thing.
		
00:57:43 --> 00:57:43
			It'll take five years to grow.
		
00:57:44 --> 00:57:44
			He said, plant it.
		
00:57:45 --> 00:57:46
			That is the mentality of a believer.
		
00:57:47 --> 00:57:48
			Don't say, the world's ending, may it all
		
00:57:48 --> 00:57:49
			destroy everything.
		
00:57:49 --> 00:57:51
			The world's ending, nothing matters, let me get
		
00:57:51 --> 00:57:52
			maxed out my credit cards and all this
		
00:57:52 --> 00:57:52
			nonsense.
		
00:57:53 --> 00:57:54
			No, he said, live your life.
		
00:57:54 --> 00:57:55
			Live your life.
		
00:57:55 --> 00:57:56
			Plant the seeds, you don't know.
		
00:57:57 --> 00:57:59
			You know, there are scholars, esteemed, respected scholars,
		
00:57:59 --> 00:58:01
			may Allah bless them and accept from them.
		
00:58:02 --> 00:58:03
			There are scholars from hundreds of years ago,
		
00:58:04 --> 00:58:06
			particularly one example, from when the Mongols were
		
00:58:06 --> 00:58:07
			invading the Muslim lands.
		
00:58:08 --> 00:58:10
			The Mongols ransacked the world like you never
		
00:58:10 --> 00:58:10
			believed.
		
00:58:10 --> 00:58:12
			They destroyed and murdered millions and billions of
		
00:58:12 --> 00:58:12
			people.
		
00:58:14 --> 00:58:16
			There's many scholars, their works, they wrote, they
		
00:58:16 --> 00:58:17
			were alive at the time, they said, this
		
00:58:17 --> 00:58:19
			looks like it's the last generation.
		
00:58:19 --> 00:58:21
			I cannot imagine the world existing after this.
		
00:58:21 --> 00:58:22
			This is pure destruction.
		
00:58:23 --> 00:58:26
			That's hundreds, 700 plus years ago, they said,
		
00:58:26 --> 00:58:27
			I think this is the last generation.
		
00:58:28 --> 00:58:30
			Now imagine, they continue to do homework, do
		
00:58:30 --> 00:58:32
			work and provide knowledge and teach people until
		
00:58:32 --> 00:58:32
			they die.
		
00:58:33 --> 00:58:35
			Imagine they just sat there and said, oh,
		
00:58:35 --> 00:58:36
			it's the last generation, might as well just
		
00:58:36 --> 00:58:37
			go hide in the cave and wait for
		
00:58:37 --> 00:58:37
			the dead.
		
00:58:38 --> 00:58:40
			That's not, they would have been wrong by
		
00:58:40 --> 00:58:42
			800 plus years.
		
00:58:42 --> 00:58:44
			So what if we're wrong by 800 plus
		
00:58:44 --> 00:58:44
			years?
		
00:58:44 --> 00:58:44
			You never know.
		
00:58:45 --> 00:58:49
			So build, plant seeds, build the community for
		
00:58:49 --> 00:58:49
			your kids.
		
00:58:51 --> 00:58:52
			The way that you build, as if this
		
00:58:52 --> 00:58:54
			message will last another 500 years, inshallah.
		
00:58:54 --> 00:58:56
			And your kids and their kids and their
		
00:58:56 --> 00:58:57
			kids will have a place to call home
		
00:58:57 --> 00:58:58
			and to build their iman.
		
00:58:59 --> 00:59:01
			Plant seeds like the generation before Salahuddin.
		
00:59:01 --> 00:59:03
			You had Nuruddin Zinki and others.
		
00:59:03 --> 00:59:06
			They built the foundation for the Salahuddin.
		
00:59:06 --> 00:59:09
			When Salahuddin conquered Jerusalem and reconquered it, brought
		
00:59:09 --> 00:59:11
			it back to the Muslim lands after 93
		
00:59:11 --> 00:59:14
			years, the adhan was finally heard again in
		
00:59:14 --> 00:59:14
			Jerusalem.
		
00:59:14 --> 00:59:16
			May Allah Ta'ala free Al-Quds in
		
00:59:16 --> 00:59:17
			our lifetime.
		
00:59:18 --> 00:59:21
			The people who, for those entire 93 years,
		
00:59:21 --> 00:59:23
			there's people who lived and died without a
		
00:59:23 --> 00:59:24
			single adhan being heard there.
		
00:59:24 --> 00:59:26
			And they still kept the hope alive, they
		
00:59:26 --> 00:59:27
			still planted seeds, they still built the next
		
00:59:27 --> 00:59:27
			generation.
		
00:59:28 --> 00:59:29
			Because if our generation doesn't do it, the
		
00:59:29 --> 00:59:30
			next one will.
		
00:59:30 --> 00:59:32
			If they gave up and said, khalas, I
		
00:59:32 --> 00:59:33
			mean it's the end of the world, whatever.
		
00:59:34 --> 00:59:36
			That's not a mindset of a believer.
		
00:59:36 --> 00:59:38
			So beware because any belief can go to
		
00:59:38 --> 00:59:39
			an extreme.
		
00:59:39 --> 00:59:40
			And that would be an extreme here.
		
00:59:40 --> 00:59:42
			We never lose faith, we never lose hope,
		
00:59:42 --> 00:59:43
			we never say, well, just build a bunker
		
00:59:43 --> 00:59:44
			and live in there till the end of
		
00:59:44 --> 00:59:45
			times, right?
		
00:59:46 --> 00:59:47
			You should take precaution.
		
00:59:48 --> 00:59:49
			You should like Prophet Yusuf Alayhi Salaam, he
		
00:59:49 --> 00:59:51
			told them, hey, we're living in a time
		
00:59:51 --> 00:59:52
			of abundance but in seven years we're gonna
		
00:59:52 --> 00:59:53
			have drought.
		
00:59:54 --> 00:59:56
			So build towards, like protect yourselves for that
		
00:59:56 --> 00:59:57
			drought, that's perfectly fine.
		
00:59:58 --> 01:00:00
			But do not go to an extreme, do
		
01:00:00 --> 01:00:02
			not abandon civilization, it makes you lazy, it
		
01:00:02 --> 01:00:05
			makes you fearful, it makes you mistrusting of
		
01:00:05 --> 01:00:07
			everything and there's no hope in life anyway.
		
01:00:07 --> 01:00:09
			And then you actually harm yourself and that
		
01:00:09 --> 01:00:10
			is not the way of the believer.
		
01:00:12 --> 01:00:14
			And a lot of these people eventually snap
		
01:00:14 --> 01:00:15
			out of it when it's like very late
		
01:00:15 --> 01:00:17
			in life and they're just so far behind
		
01:00:17 --> 01:00:20
			everybody else and their families are far behind
		
01:00:20 --> 01:00:22
			and it's just a terrible position to put
		
01:00:22 --> 01:00:22
			yourself in.
		
01:00:23 --> 01:00:25
			So we should believe in these signs, we
		
01:00:25 --> 01:00:26
			should study the authentic signs so we can
		
01:00:26 --> 01:00:28
			know them when they come, we should increase
		
01:00:28 --> 01:00:30
			our iman, we should increase our sense of
		
01:00:30 --> 01:00:32
			urgency about this dunya, like wow, a hundred
		
01:00:32 --> 01:00:33
			signs have come true.
		
01:00:34 --> 01:00:36
			What do we do tomorrow if we see
		
01:00:36 --> 01:00:37
			news of the Euphrates River drying up?
		
01:00:38 --> 01:00:39
			What do we do tomorrow if there's this
		
01:00:39 --> 01:00:41
			sign and that sign and that sign, right?
		
01:00:41 --> 01:00:42
			Look at what's happening in Palestine and Syria
		
01:00:42 --> 01:00:44
			and these places and Iraq and Egypt as
		
01:00:44 --> 01:00:46
			mentioned in the hadith and Yemen as mentioned
		
01:00:46 --> 01:00:47
			in the hadith.
		
01:00:47 --> 01:00:48
			It's happening right before our eyes.
		
01:00:49 --> 01:00:50
			So that should create a sense of, oh
		
01:00:50 --> 01:00:52
			my God, like it increases your iman but
		
01:00:52 --> 01:00:53
			it creates a sense of urgency.
		
01:00:53 --> 01:00:55
			I'm living in one of the end times.
		
01:00:55 --> 01:00:56
			I don't know how long it'll last but
		
01:00:56 --> 01:00:59
			it's clearly the last couple of generations.
		
01:00:59 --> 01:01:01
			And now finally I'll end it with just
		
01:01:01 --> 01:01:03
			listing the ten signs, the ten major signs
		
01:01:03 --> 01:01:04
			of the Day of Judgment.
		
01:01:04 --> 01:01:06
			Number one is Ad-Dajjal, the Antichrist.
		
01:01:07 --> 01:01:09
			Number two is the return of Jesus Alayhi
		
01:01:09 --> 01:01:09
			Salaam.
		
01:01:09 --> 01:01:12
			Number three is Gog and Magog, yet Juj
		
01:01:12 --> 01:01:14
			and Majuj, two tribes that will ransack the
		
01:01:14 --> 01:01:14
			world.
		
01:01:15 --> 01:01:18
			Number four is, four, five and six, three
		
01:01:18 --> 01:01:19
			landslides, major ones.
		
01:01:20 --> 01:01:21
			One in the east, one in the west
		
01:01:21 --> 01:01:22
			and one in the Arabian Peninsula.
		
01:01:23 --> 01:01:26
			Number seven is smoke, Ad-Dukhan, as Allah
		
01:01:26 --> 01:01:26
			says in the Qur'an.
		
01:01:27 --> 01:01:29
			A smoke will arise surrounding the world.
		
01:01:29 --> 01:01:31
			Number eight, the rising of the sun from
		
01:01:31 --> 01:01:32
			the west.
		
01:01:33 --> 01:01:35
			Number eight and number nine, I'm not certain,
		
01:01:36 --> 01:01:38
			I think the beast may come before it.
		
01:01:38 --> 01:01:40
			Anyway, number eight is the rising of the
		
01:01:40 --> 01:01:42
			sun from the west or from its resting
		
01:01:42 --> 01:01:42
			place.
		
01:01:42 --> 01:01:45
			And number nine is the beast, Dabbatul Ard,
		
01:01:45 --> 01:01:47
			which is also found in Christian and Jewish
		
01:01:47 --> 01:01:47
			scripture.
		
01:01:48 --> 01:01:49
			And then number ten is the final major
		
01:01:49 --> 01:01:51
			fire that will gather the people.
		
01:01:51 --> 01:01:55
			So these are not necessarily in direct order.
		
01:01:55 --> 01:01:57
			Some of them we are pretty confident they're
		
01:01:57 --> 01:01:58
			in that order, but the others, Allah knows,
		
01:01:58 --> 01:01:59
			they can overlap and so on.
		
01:02:00 --> 01:02:01
			The ones that we're kind of confident about
		
01:02:01 --> 01:02:03
			is that Dajjal will be first, then Isa
		
01:02:03 --> 01:02:05
			Alayhi Salaam, then Yajuj and Majuj.
		
01:02:06 --> 01:02:07
			So if you are including the minor signs,
		
01:02:07 --> 01:02:10
			it will be Mahdi, then Dajjal, then Jesus
		
01:02:10 --> 01:02:12
			Alayhi Salaam, then Yajuj and Majuj, and the
		
01:02:12 --> 01:02:16
			rest, Allah knows, they will be overlapping on
		
01:02:16 --> 01:02:17
			some level, Allah knows.
		
01:02:17 --> 01:02:20
			Now these will require their own conversation, but
		
01:02:20 --> 01:02:22
			these were mentioned by the Prophet ﷺ.
		
01:02:22 --> 01:02:24
			Shaykh Yasir Qadhi also has a lecture series,
		
01:02:25 --> 01:02:27
			I think it's like ten lectures, about the
		
01:02:27 --> 01:02:28
			Day of Judgment, the signs of the Day
		
01:02:28 --> 01:02:30
			of Judgment, and he goes through in depth
		
01:02:30 --> 01:02:31
			about each of these.
		
01:02:31 --> 01:02:33
			So that's something you can put into your
		
01:02:33 --> 01:02:35
			playlist and listen to while you drive, inshaAllah
		
01:02:35 --> 01:02:35
			ta'ala.
		
01:02:36 --> 01:02:37
			Alright, jazakum khayran guys.
		
01:02:37 --> 01:02:38
			I'm really honored.
		
01:02:38 --> 01:02:39
			I appreciate your attentiveness.
		
01:02:40 --> 01:02:41
			I hope it was a beneficial topic.
		
01:02:42 --> 01:02:44
			I hope we learned something that we can
		
01:02:44 --> 01:02:45
			use for ourselves and our families.
		
01:02:53 --> 01:02:54
			Al-Fatiha.
