			In these podcasts we uncover one chapter after another from the life of the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wasallam in an attempt to learn about him, love him, and better ourselves through his
example, immersion, mentorship, companionship and tibia. These are just a few of the things we offer
alongside knowledge of the prophetic Biography at the theater intensive, two weeks, dedicated to the
study of the life of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam and his noble characteristics. So this winter in
sha Allah join me in Dallas, Texas, alongside your classmates from all over the world, to learn the
story of the life of the best of humanity, the mercy to mankind, the prophet muhammad sallallahu
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:52
			alayhi wa sallam, go to Cedar intensive.com to register, or for more info.
		
00:00:53 --> 00:01:05
			Okay, Bismillah Alhamdulillah wa salatu salam ala rasulillah, who Allah and he was such a huge
marine shala continuing with our study of the life of the Prophet sallallahu sallam, a sirata number
we had the prophetic biography
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:47
			where we are right now what we're studying right now, because I'm going to be picking up from where
we left off. But I'd like to kind of bring everybody up to speed where we are. We are in the ninth
year of the life of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. What does that exactly mean? What that
means is the fact that the Macan period has passed 13 years of trial and tribulation. And then there
have been nine years of the profits a lump sum residing in the city of Medina. Now, a lot of that
the early part of it, the first five, six years of it, were also filled with a lot of conflict and a
lot of danger and a lot of uncertainty, uncertainty in the sense that there were a lot of enemies
		
00:01:47 --> 00:02:07
			out to get them. And the Muslim community has gone through a lot and they've survived through a lot.
And they've been able to get to this particular point now, where the Treaty of who they BIA
happened. After that, they went in they performed Ramadan, they were able to establish peaceful
alliances with not only the people in Macau, but the Bedouin tribes around the city of Medina.
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:44
			That proceeded forward by eventually the people of Macau violating the Treaty of Abia they violated
the treaty. And when they did that the profits, a lot of them held them accountable, because it
wasn't just about, you know, looking for an excuse to attack them, but rather it was more so about
the fact that the way they violated the treaty was that they massacred another tribe that was
included within the treaty and the profits, a lot of them stood up for the rights of those people
and defended their rights. But nevertheless, the conquest of Makkah has happened and what that means
is the profits a lot of the Muslims peacefully enter Makkah, and the city of Makkah basically enters
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:50
			into the fold of Islam. And now Mecca is basically part of the Muslim land.
		
00:02:51 --> 00:03:34
			And after that point, the prophets a lot of Islam returns back to the city of Medina. They settled
down in Medina, things seem to be taking a turn for the better all the way up from Habana all the
way down to the city of Mecca. Every it's all basically Muslim area now, there's similarly
satellite's Muslim communities in places like Bahrain and Yemen and other places. So Mashallah Islam
is flourishing, and Islam is growing. And the number of Muslims is also increasing. But at this
particular time, there's a very, you know, serious threats. And the serious threat comes from the
Roman Empire. So the Roman Empire, basically, the prophets, a lot of them received news, he received
		
00:03:34 --> 00:04:15
			intelligence, that the Roman Empire is basically sending down an army. And it's rumored to be
anywhere between 100,000 to 300,000 soldiers. Now that is a huge number, even by today's standards,
but at that particular time in the world's history, that is an unbelievable number. That is an
unfathomable number of soldiers. And that's a very scary thought and idea. So the prophets a lot, he
said him decides, you know, to approach this particular threat and make a show of force that we will
stand our ground, and that we will not be threatened, we will not be bullied. And so the prophets
allottee, some gathers together, the Muslims, about 30,000, Muslims gathered together, and they
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:53
			begin to march towards the north, to basically face off against this Roman army that is approaching
them, or that is rumored to be coming towards them. This is known as the campaign and the expedition
of taboos to book and that is a city all the way to the north. And that's what the event is where
we're studying. So what we've talked about so far is how the profits a lot isn't prepared for the
expedition in the campaign of the book. And secondly, what we talked about is the prophets, a lot of
them know Muslims depart, and basically how the journey of taboo goes, what we're going to be
talking about is two things where we're going to be talking about today's two things, number one, on
		
00:04:53 --> 00:05:00
			their way to to book as they are going there 30,000 Muslims under the leadership of the prophets, a
lot of them are
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:37
			marching towards the north, towards the city of Dubuque to basically potentially face off against a
humongous army that outnumbers them anywhere from three to one, two all the way 10 to one, all
right, and they're going there to face off against them, and to basically make a strong show of
force, that we are not going to be bullied, we're not going to be threatened, and we're not going to
be pushed around by you, we are going to take a stand and defend ourselves. And so they're marching
towards the north. Now what happens as they're marching towards the north, a particular very
powerful experience occurs. The prophets, a lot of these women, the Muslims happen by a place, and
		
00:05:37 --> 00:06:16
			the place was known by a lot of people at that particular time as Egypt and hedger. Now, what what
was this place? This was the place where a very ancient people resided. And these ancient people who
resided there were called thumb mood was the people of the mood. Now, the Quran talks about the
people of the mood, many, many different places. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to take a
quick sidebar, I'm going to explain the story of the people of the mood and with a mood, or with a
mood, I'm going to explain their story that from the Quranic narrative, so that we understand
exactly what happened with these people. And why is this such a significant place? And when they
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:56
			come there, we see that the profits are large and makes a really big deal about that place. He's
very serious, and he makes a very big deal about that place. Why is it such a big deal? And why is
this tone so serious? Right? So to understand that, let me quickly share with you what transpired
with the people of the mood, who are these people? What happened with them? What does operon tell us
about them? So the Quran tells us that the people of the mood were an ancient people. And they were
actually a very large, very powerful tribe, who resided in Arabia. These are one of the few ancient
peoples that the Quran tells us about that were actually from the Arab lands, they were Arab people,
		
00:06:56 --> 00:07:32
			they were aerated, you know, they were from that region. A lot of times the different narratives
that we hear about like Ibrahim alayhis, Salam and Musa alayhis, salam, and, you know, a lot of New
Hollywood setup, these were not these, these people were not necessarily from that Arabian
peninsula, that region, but the people are familiar from that region. So this was a very large and a
very powerful tribe, where they're placed timewise Allah knows best, that's something that Quran
does not talk about, because the Quran doesn't get into those particular details. The Quran moreso
wants us to pay attention to the actual story and the lessons there in all right. So this was a very
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:46
			large, powerful tribe that did not believe in God, they worship the idols, and they did not believe
in God. Number two, the second fact about them, they were people who were very gifted by By Allah,
how were they gifted, that
		
00:07:48 --> 00:08:26
			their experience, there are some narrations that talk about their history, that they had a lot of
trouble, kind of like living in that area, because they used to build and construct homes. It was a
desert, it was a mountainous region, strong winds used to blow through there. And so what would
happen is that their homes would become damaged repeatedly. And it was also very hot. And so it was
very difficult for them to live there. So eventually, Allah subhanaw taala granted them the gift,
they were very talented. And what they started doing was they started carving out homes within the
mountains. Now there's, this is a place where some historians and scholars of the Quran, they
		
00:08:26 --> 00:09:06
			differ, they split up into two different opinions. All right, some scholars are of the position that
their gift was basically what we would consider in the realm of like architecture, engineering. All
right, they were just very gifted engineers. And they were able to construct tools, and they were
able to carve out homes within these mountains. Number one, some other say no, no, it was actually
something a little bit more remarkable than that. And there's evidence of this within the Quran as
well. Where can we get a terminology valuable, you can follow him. Allah subhanaw taala says they
would carve out homes within their mountains for themselves very, very easily, almost like it was a
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:42
			game like with their bare hands. And this is something a lot tells us about Tao, the prophet David,
the prophet Alayhi Salam where Allah says, What ln Allah who had we made, we made iron soft in his
hands. It was like a miracle that would only Sam could take iron in his hands and just mold it with
his bare hands. It was a miracle. So there is evidence in the Quran of the fact that no, it wasn't
just the fact that they were just very gifted engineers, where they figured out a way to carve homes
within mountains. No, it was actually something quite miraculous. Where with their bare hands, they
could they could move rocks, they could move stones they could completely like carve out a hole
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:59
			inside of a mountain with just their bare hands. Allah gave them that gift and that's completely
possible. Allahu Allah, Allah, Allah knows best. Nevertheless, these people carved out homes within
these mountains. So now they're very powerful, a very strong, a very large tribe of people. They're
blessed by Allah. On top of that, they have this great
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:35
			gift that Allah has given them where they carved mountain, they carve out homes within their
mountains. And those homes are actually preserved till today those places are carved within the
mountains. They're still there till today and you can go there and see it. And it's actually quite
remarkable. So, but the problem was that they didn't believe in Allah, they worshiped idols, and
they disbelieved in disbelieved in a lot. And because of that, they eventually deteriorated into
becoming a very kind of evil people. They had a lot of crime and a lot of different sins that had
become very prevalent in their community. So as Allah subhanaw taala would do, Allah Spano rajala
		
00:10:35 --> 00:11:15
			deployed a prophet to them. One of the people who one of the young men who grew up amongst the
people, his name was solidly his name was Sally way that's a Moodle column. Sally had that we sent
to the people of the mood their brothers Satya, so this young man who grew up amongst them named
Sally, who was a remarkable young man, no, but you know, he had admirable character, he had never
done anything bad or wrong. He had never lied. He was a very, very, you know, admirable man from the
community. Allah subhanaw taala gave him Prophethood and Allah subhanho wa Taala, gave him
revelation and made him a prophet, and then gave him a mission. And the mission was, now go and
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:29
			preach to your people. Talk to your people, tell them to change their ways. Tell them tell them to
believe in Allah tell them to be grateful for the blessings Allah has given to them. He came with
them. He came to them with the prophetic message as we see many prophets came to their people.
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:56
			This is where the story takes a turn. Not only did they not believe in him, but they decided to make
a mockery of him. They started to mock him and they started to make fun of him. And a lot of talks
about this in the Quran. Why am I attached to him, but Rasulullah Kenobi, he says he on every single
time we sent a messenger to some of these people, they would always make a mockery, and they would
make fun of the messenger of the Prophet. So they decided to make a game of this. They said,
		
00:11:57 --> 00:12:10
			Would you be willing to prove to us that you're a prophet? He said, I can definitely try. So they
said, okay, we want a miracle. He said, all pray to Allah, what would you like?
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:47
			And so they went on to say that they were just kind of gathered there. They were having a
conversation. So they pointed out a mountain and they said, We want a camel to come out from the
mountain NACA. NACA is not just a camel, but it's like a chic camel. Alright, so we want to Shi
Campbell to come out of that mountain. It's a very strange, bizarre idea. Right? It's almost kind of
like something living to come out of something that's not living. But on top of that, there was
almost like an element of mockery in it. Like come up with the most craziest idea that you can
write, I want a camel to just come out of this mountain. He said, Are you sure they said we're sure.
		
00:12:48 --> 00:13:02
			The Quran talks about this. So he prayed to Allah and Allah subhanaw taala made a camel come out
from the mountain has he Napa to lucky level this is the she camel brought forth for you by God.
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:22
			Then the story goes forward they said well we want proof to see whether it's actually a real
creature or not. So we want the she camel to give birth we want the she camel to give birth to prove
that it's real it's living. So he makes to our to our last panel challenge the she camel gives
birth.
		
00:13:24 --> 00:14:02
			Now, there's this magnificent and it was actually said to be quite huge. There's this magnificent
huge creature and actually some of the companions of the prophets a lot assembly talked about the
fact that the prophets a lot of them pointed to the place in the mountain where he said this is
where the she camel came out from and they said we could see like there was almost like a crack in
the mountain that sort of the mountain and opened up in the sheep camel and walked out. And then the
she camel gave birth to a to two offspring to a baby camel. Now that these two camels were here, the
prophet SAW me I said to them, Look the command from God is have the Hinako to La hillicon have the
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:04
			inocula hillegom la shabu shabu
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:43
			shabu shabu yamalube. Alright, so do not touch it while itema suha Do not mess with this animal Do
not mess with this creature. Do not violate this creature number one. And number two, this camel. So
this camel was so huge that when it would go to the watering hole, it would basically kind of take
over the watering hole and it would drink all the water and it would eat an abundance of food. And
so the people started getting kind of nervous by saying that look and drink all this water and eat
all this food. And you're telling us not to touch it not to mess with it. We don't know what to do.
We don't know what we're supposed to do. So finally he said okay, Allah has made the rule that the
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:59
			she camel will drink and eat one day and take a day off and that day off will be the day that you
will go and you can use the water into food and things like that. And you can graze your animals on
that day. And Subhanallah not only just this arrangement was made
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:11
			There was a miracle within it. The Quran talks about the fact that the day that she Campbell would
go and drink from the water, it would finish up all the water because it was this huge animal. When
it would go and graze it would eat up all the grass in the area.
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:33
			But then what would happen is when they would go to sleep at night, when they would wake up in the
morning, they would find that all the grass had regrown overnights, and the water was completely
full again, overnight, I lost power, which Allah would miraculously replenish all the supplies. So
they had what they needed. But this continued on. But the problem was that they still didn't believe
in Allah, even though they witnessed this miracle.
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:44
			And this evil within them continued. So what did they end up doing? Some evil people got together
amongst them will kind of decide what kind of decide to refuse to do
		
00:15:46 --> 00:16:01
			that there were these nine very evil people that it talks about. There were these nine, like almost
gangsters in the in the tribe. And they were problematic people, they always made trouble. And they
were always the source of all the trouble. They got together. And they said we should take out this
camera.
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:14
			We should take out this Campbell, right? Nobody bosses us around. Nobody tells us what to do. Let's
take up this camera, firefighter who have a demon. They ended up attacking the camera and they
killed the camel and its offspring.
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:31
			And Allah subhanaw taala said that that led to their demise in their downfall. What ended up
happening when the prophet SAW they saw this, he said, What did you do, you just invited the
punishment from God, because it's such a direct disrespect and defiance and obedience to Allah.
		
00:16:32 --> 00:17:05
			And what ended up happening was, as a person tells us, a terrible punishment came upon them for
three days. He told them that just retreat within your homes and live. And for those three days,
it's as if everyone got sick, and ill. And then finally on the third day, the Quran talks about
this, that this loud screen the Quran uses the word say, which is a scream almost, but it can also
be translated as an explosion. This loud blast or explosion occurred, which basically just killed
everyone.
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:28
			It killed everyone, it finished them all off. And they were all done. Okay. And in fact, so. So this
is that place where these people used to reside. And this is the place where those people, they
defied God, and where they killed this miracle that was given to them by Allah. And they eventually
died there. They were destroyed there. So this is that place.
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:43
			So now going back to the story that we were talking about the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu sallam,
along with 30,000 of his companions. They are marching towards the north to the city of Dubuque. And
as they're marching north, they pass by the place where this occurred.
		
00:17:44 --> 00:18:22
			So when they got there, the narrations, they tell us the historical events, the Sahaba, who were
there, the companions were there. They tell us that when they arrived there, there was, you know, a
well, there were some wells that were there in the area. And so obviously, they had been traveling
for a while they're traveling through the desert. And for the record, this expedition of to book was
in the summertime, it was in the summertime. All right. So imagine in Arabia in the summertime, and
we can imagine that very well in Texas, right? The summertime, it was very hot, scorching heat,
okay, and it was actually said to be one of the most severe summers they had experienced. So
		
00:18:22 --> 00:19:00
			obviously, everyone's really tired and fatigued and thirsty and exhausted and, you know, sweaty and
right, so everyone's really beat down by the journey, and by the circumstances. So when they arrived
there, and they see some wells, a bunch of people who were there in the Muslim army who are marching
they ran up to the wells and they started getting water and they started drinking water and they
started filling up their water you know, water sacks like their their their water canisters, and
they started you know, you know, washing themselves and then some of them also started to take some
of the water to start cooking food with it and this and that, and when the prophets a lot of them
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:42
			saw this, the prophets a lot he said I'm told them that absolutely no, he said Latisha Lee boo Minh
Mahi Harsha do not drink anything from this water if you filled up your water socks, dump all that
water out. Well that's what the old man who lives Sala do not make will do from this water for the
sake of the prayer don't do will do from this water. Well, man Academy's agenda and agenda agenda
Whoo hoo for the flu and Ebola, that if you've taken some of the water and you've mixed it up, they
used to do this thing where they would have dry like kind of like powder that used to be crushed up
like wheat and barley and oats and dates, and they would kind of crush it up and make like a powder
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:59
			out of it. So think of almost kind of like like protein powder, right? So they used to carry this
powder with them for travel. So whenever they would come across water, they wouldn't put water into
it and mix it up and then they would drink it and that was a form of nourishment and sustenance. So
he said if you've done if you mix some of your mix into the water
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:41
			personally do not drink it do not consume it, but serve it to the animals give it to the animals for
them. Well that's absolute minutiae and and if you started to cook some food in that water, dumped
that water out and do not eat anything of that the profits a lot of them said do not do that. This
is a very, very, you know, it's almost like a cursed place. And I know that that idea that notion
can be a bit strange how can I play speakers, but we understand just like a place can be blessed. A
place can be cursed. Allah spiderwort Allah Subhana Allah The Asahi Agha de les laminal Mashallah
haram lol masjidul, aka saw Allah de Baraka hola who when Allah talks about Masood Azhar Jerusalem,
		
00:20:41 --> 00:21:18
			Allah subhanaw taala talks about the fact that we have blessed that region in that area. We know
Mecca and Medina are blessing sacred regions, right the places Amina amazonica, out of where we
perform the Hajj, those are blessings lands. Okay, so the prophets, a lot of them said, This isn't a
bad place. This is a curse place. Something terrible happened here do not consume anything from
here. Furthermore, the prophets, a lot of them some of the Sahaba were kind of curious. And they
said, Can we go they could see in the mountains, that these those places that were carved out within
the mountains, they said, Can we go exploring there? The profits, a lot of them said Latin Hello, my
		
00:21:18 --> 00:21:56
			Sakina Lady vellamo and fussa who do not go into their homes, because these are people who, who, who
ruin themselves. They disobeyed God and they ruin themselves. So don't go in there. Don't be a
tourist, don't be a tourist, right? There's a place to be a tourist, there's a time to be a tourist.
Right. But there's some places where we also have to have a level of seriousness. Right? When we go
to Mecca, Medina, we don't act like tourists. We shouldn't act like tourists, right? Like, ooh, it's
not it's not Disneyland. It's McCain. Medina, writes a hot domain, right, you have to have a level
of seriousness, there's a spiritual pleasure there to worship, you're there to worship Allah
		
00:21:56 --> 00:22:33
			subhanho wa Taala and respect the place. So similarly, the Prophet sallallahu somebody saying you
can't just constantly be in tourist mode. But you also have to love love a level of reflection and
seriousness about where you are the prophets a lot he said, I'm said Illa and Saku Burkina, and you
see back home with Rama Saba home, unless you approach this place, very mindful and fearful of the
punishment of God and asking a lot to protect you from the punishment that be felled these people,
like some spiritual serious needs to be there. And this is the balance in the life of the prophets.
A lot of the some that very honestly, we struggle with a lot today. Right? I always tell you know,
		
00:22:33 --> 00:23:07
			people, I always tell the students, one extreme breeds the other. So either we have this complete
lack of seriousness, we're just we're constantly in tourist mode, we're taking pictures of
everything and Snapchatting everything in sight. Okay? Or there's almost like this attitude of like,
over seriousness, that's not practical. You can't live life like that, like, aren't you ever gonna,
like enjoy yourself, but there is a middle ground, there's times and places where you enjoy
yourself, the profits a lot of the time what sometimes on these journeys pass through valleys and
gardens, and he used to stop and drink the water and look at the trees and listen to the birds
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:38
			chirping in the trees. And, you know, he used to enjoy the place. And he said, Look how beautiful
displaces there were moments like that. There were moments where they were traveling in the profits,
a lot of the time they would be up on a mountain or a hill, and the processor would stop and he
would kind of, you know, appreciate the scene. And you say, look how beautiful the creation of a
light is. Right? So there were moments like that. But there have to also be moments where we have a
level of seriousness. And we grasp and we understand kind of where we are and what we're doing
there. Right. And so this is that balance of profits, a lot of him was teaching them and also
		
00:23:38 --> 00:24:18
			teaching us. And so after this happened, obviously the process and told them don't go sightseeing
over there but be mindful and fearful. And the profits a lot even told them engaging to make Vicar
of Allah ask Allah for forgiveness, ask Allah to protect us from his punishment. And the prophets of
some himself kind of covered his face with this show, and continue to make the dua for Allah to
forgive them and protect them. And he told them do not consume any of this water. And he said, let's
go let's move past here. Let's not spend a lot of time here. And so they moved on past there and
they moved on. When they reach a little bit further, they reach a little bit further, obviously the
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:37
			compact it was time for prayer, so they needed to stop and make will do and pray. And also everyone
who was traveling was thirsty and tired. So the profits, a lot of them said don't worry, we will
take care of our needs, will provide something Allah will make some provision for us. And so the
Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:24:39 --> 00:25:00
			He stopped at a particular place. And when they stopped there, there was a there was like a small
spring. There was a small spring that was there. But the narration says that the spring was so small
and so weak. There was like just a little bit of water that was bubbling out of it. It wasn't like a
gushing spring, where like a whole stream was coming.
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:33
			out from it. Okay, it was just like this little tiny spring and there was almost like water bubbling
out of it. And the narration says it almost looks like an egg. So imagine like barely any water
pressure where the water is just kind of bubbling out. It looked like an egg. Okay, that's how
little water it was. And when the prophets a lot when they came in, they told the processor, he
said, Is there any water in the area? They said, there's a small little spring, barely any water is
coming out from it. The profits a lot he sent him said, Mr. Malik has narrated the story, that the
profits, a lot of them said, Well, don't go to the water until I until I get there. Let me go to
		
00:25:33 --> 00:26:03
			that water first. When you reach there to the water, the narration actually says a couple of guys
went ahead and tried to like use the water. And when the process showed up, he said, Did you guys
use the water? They said, Yeah, the profitsystem said, Didn't I tell you not to use the water? They
said Yeah. They said, Then why did you use the water? They said, Oh, I'm sorry. And then that is a
lesson as well, that there's always people that don't listen to what you tell them to do, right. But
nevertheless, the profits are lovely. Some went to the water and the narration says he scooped up
the water in his own hands. He made to offer Buttercup for blessing. He said Bismillah he washed his
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:39
			face and he washed his hands in the water. And he asked Allah subhanaw taala for blessing. And the
Sahaba say that as soon as the prophets a lot of them did that the water started gushing forth,
creating like an entire pool of water. And then the pot and the all the companions and the Sahaba
were able to bring their water sacks and fill it up and containers with water and everyone made will
do and everyone drank water and everyone was able to, you know, make their food and cook their food
and, you know, make their little drinks and do all of that. And it was enough water for everyone.
This one the great miracles of the prophets a lot he sent them. So this happened at that particular
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:45
			time. There's another couple of stories that are mentioned here that transpired at this particular
place.
		
00:26:46 --> 00:27:13
			The prophets, a lot of them when they were passing by the place of the mood displace the ruins of
the mood. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told them the story, he pointed out the sights to
them. He said this is a place in the mountain where the camel came out from this is a water that
they were told the camel will drink one day and you will drink one day. This is that water right
there. And not only that, but the prophets a lot of them told them the story that when that blast
occurred, that killed all of them.
		
00:27:14 --> 00:27:58
			One of them was not there. One of them was had actually traveled all the way down to Makati to visit
the Kaaba. And he was in the huddle. He was in the safe, sacred sanctuary of the heart of the Kaaba.
So when that blast happen, you know he was away. And secondly, he was within the huddle, the sacred
place, but he was amongst the same people. He was a criminal person. And then the prophets, a lot of
them told them that as soon as he left the harem, as soon as he exited the sacred area, he basically
felt that on the spot. The punishment of Allah subhanaw taala got him there as well. Another very
interesting thing that happened there was that when they they were they moved away a little bit far
		
00:27:58 --> 00:28:38
			from that where they found the spring and of course, that's where the water was, and they use the
water. But then they spent the night there. The prophets, a lot of them told them that look, this is
this is you know, this is not a really nice place. And secondly, even the people of the mood the
reason why Allah had given them the gift of being able to carve out homes within the mountains was
because of the fact that living there was so difficult. It was mountainous, it was Rocky, strong
winds used to blow through there. So the prophets, a lot of them had told them. Listen, everyone
tried to stay together. No one go out at night. And if you ultimately have to go out at night, which
		
00:28:38 --> 00:29:12
			means if you have to use the restroom, you have to go out at night, then make sure that you do not
go along go in pairs. Okay. Two different individuals ended up kind of wandering off at night one
needed to go use the restroom, but he decided to go on his own and the other one just decided to go
sightseeing at night just to take a walk at night. So he went out on his own. And it's very
interesting not listening to the advice of the prophets a lot is him not doing what he tells you to
do. When he tells you something very directly to do the one who went out to use the restroom. While
he was using the restroom. He fell down because of the wind he fell down and he ended up injuring
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:36
			himself really badly. He somehow limp back to the camp and when the process of saw him he goes This
is why I told you not to go out on your own. But then the profits a lot. He said um, you know, kind
of as we know from the stories of the process alone, the profits a lot of him made to offer him in
the man was cured. The second individual who kind of went sightseeing went for a walk right in, he
climbed up on one of the nearby hills, the mountains
		
00:29:37 --> 00:29:47
			and a strong wind blew there and it knocked him off the mountain. But he didn't fall completely off
a cliff. It just kind of knocked him off the side of the mountain. And he kind of rolled down and he
ended up getting injured.
		
00:29:48 --> 00:29:52
			And by the time he got up and was able to make it back to the camp, the army had moved on.
		
00:29:53 --> 00:29:59
			The army had moved on. They just assumed that he wandered off and maybe he went missing or he died
or whatever it was
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:33
			So the army had moved on. And he somehow slowly limped his way back to Medina. He got to Medina
after the prophets a lot of the some of the Muslim army had returned back to Medina. And when he got
to Medina, the prophets, a lot of them said, What are you doing? What happened? Where were you What
happened to you? And he told the story. And again, the prophets allowed him just simply told him,
this is why I told you what I told you. And this is what I what happens when you don't listen to
what you're told. Right? So a couple of very interesting stories, and something very powerful the
prophets a lot, he sort of said, and I want everyone to pay a lot of attention to this. Some some
		
00:30:33 --> 00:31:11
			very profound words, prophetic words, when some of the Sahaba insisted that we want to go we want to
go inside, we want to look, we want to take a tour. It's like us today. Like I just want to go take
a couple of pictures, right? The prophets, a lot of them told them that he first of all told belaga
the Allahu taala and who that make the call for prayer. So Beloved, made the call for prayer solid
to Jamie Arden. So everyone, the Sahaba were the kind of people that if you made the call for
prayer, everybody would immediately come together, so everyone got together. Then the Prophet
sallallahu Sallam said that Mother toluna, Allah caminhada Allahu Allah him. Why do you want to go
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:17
			visit the home of these people upon whom God's wrath descended? Why would you want to do that?
		
00:31:18 --> 00:31:21
			So one person spoke up and he said, Now gentlemen, who mia rasulillah
		
00:31:22 --> 00:31:32
			we're we're just really fascinated by this. We're fascinated. We're intrigued. We're interested.
We're curious. So profits a lot a subset of
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:46
			Delica. Would you like me to tell you about something that's even more like bizarre and strange and
fascinating. Then going and seeing their home? Roger lumen and fusi community Oh, combi Makana,
tabela, como makua.
		
00:31:48 --> 00:31:49
			that
		
00:31:50 --> 00:32:24
			a person from amongst you, being given knowledge by God, to be able to tell you what happened before
you and what's going to happen after you. He's talking about himself, like you have a messenger
amongst you, you have a prophet amongst you, telling you what happened before and what will happen
afterwards. First of all, we're sad to do so catch yourself. And be be you know, be sensible, be
sensible, for in Allah, Allah Yaga, who be either become Shia, God does not want to punish you will
say it
		
00:32:25 --> 00:32:26
			unforeseen.
		
00:32:27 --> 00:33:16
			Because there will come people later on who will just be so heedless, and so mindful, mindless, so
he listened mindless, that they will not be able to determine the punishment of a lot from them.
Don't be like those people. Be mindful, be sensible, be mindful, be sensible, and recognize each
place in each situation. And Don't be foolish like this. Don't act like a bunch of tourists. So this
was basically this place that they saw here. And then of course, as I mentioned before, that they
passed on from here, and they proceeded on forward towards the place of the book. Now the second
thing that I wanted to talk about here today, and we'll conclude with this inshallah, they arrive at
		
00:33:16 --> 00:33:51
			the place of the book. So this spot where the ruins of the mood are, and actually that places there
even till today, in Arabia, it's called medallion solid. And today, the locals they refer to it as
medallion solea. People don't live there. People don't even live around, there's just this kind of
place in the middle of nowhere. But if you're ever in that region, or in that area, kind of passing
through, you can actually you can pass through there and you can see it, right and again, it's
important when you do pass by and you kind of see it. It's important to observe the etiquette taught
to us by the prophets, allow them, be mindful, be aware, ask Allah for forgiveness, casilla for
		
00:33:51 --> 00:34:29
			protection, and move right on class, the place. Nevertheless, that place is not too far from the
city of Dubuque, they arrive in the place of the book. Now, when they arrived at the place of the
book, and they kept their the profits. A lot of them said, this is where we will be camping,
awaiting the arrival of the army, and then we'll see what happens. We'll see what transpires the
profits, a lot of them delivered a sermon. He gave a hook, but he delivered a sermon at this place,
and two very powerful sermon, the prophet system gave and I'd like to share that sermon here. The
Sahaba, saying that the Prophet sallallahu sallam, he sat down, of course, this is towards the end
		
00:34:29 --> 00:35:00
			of the life of the Prophet. Normally a hook bearer sermon is given standing up, and the Friday hook
but the process would give standing up, but he had a stick that eventually used to kind of lean on
because he was 62 years old. He was a lot older now. So he used to kind of have this stick this I
saw, and he would kind of hold it and lean on it when he would give the sermon for the Friday
prayer. But normally now when he would address the people, he used to stand up and address them, but
because he was elderly now he would sit down and kind of speak to the people. So the Sahaba say we
were traveling to his pulpit. His member is posted
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:33
			was not there. So he sat down and leaned against the tree. And we all gathered around him there all
30,000 we all gathered around him, and the profits allowed to some addressed everyone. And the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said, a lot of biru come behind in nassima shadiness, let me
tell you about the best of people, and the worst of humanity. The best of humanity, the best of
people and the worst of people the worst of humanity. In them in hate and nasty radula amela fees
have been in a lava hurry for a CE, O Allah.
		
00:35:35 --> 00:36:22
			O Allah de Mayo he had to mow to the best of people is the one who continues to strive in the path
of God who continues to try to do their best to live a life that is pleasing to Allah, whether
that'd be on the back of a horse, which means in battle, or whether that'd be on the back of a
camel, which means in kind of moving about and taking care of your business. Oh, Allah Kadima here
or on one's feet, which means in your daily lives, living in your town, living in your home, okay?
However it may be whether you are in battle, whether you're working, whether you're at home, you
always try to live a life that is mindful of God and always trying to live life that is pleasing to
		
00:36:22 --> 00:36:39
			Allah, do your best to be the best that you can every single day, until death finally comes, that is
the best person. You see how he simplified it. You see how he simplified the equation? A lot of
times we make spirituality such a complicated prospect.
		
00:36:40 --> 00:37:17
			We make it so complex, we make it so complicated, that it sounds like something so existential, so
metaphysical and philosophical. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with it. I don't know if I
don't even understand what the conversation is about. I'm not smart enough to figure it out. I'm not
good enough to do it. But the Prophet sallallahu Sallam said, No, it's just being the best that you
can be. Being honest, being good being sincere in your everyday life. That's, that's called being a
good person. That's the best person. Then the he said, we're in The Manchurian assay, the worst kind
of person radula and 5g, Ron Jerry
		
00:37:18 --> 00:37:27
			is the person who is sinful and not just sinful, but somebody who is very blatant.
		
00:37:28 --> 00:37:53
			Somebody who is very blatant in how they commit sin. All right, very blunt and very blatant, like
somebody who doesn't care what Allah wants him to do, and just publicly act out in a way that is
defined to God in a way that is defined to Allah and just does it blatantly. disrespectfully. That
is the worst kind of person and then he said, yaka, okitama lucky.
		
00:37:55 --> 00:38:00
			This is very scary. Listen to this yakata okitama lucky and this person reads the Quran

the Quran and know the Quran and talk the Quran and speak and know a lot about the Quran. But
there's not live by any of its values.
		
00:38:21 --> 00:38:26
			The profits are lovely. Some said that is the worst kind of person. May Allah protect us all.
		
00:38:27 --> 00:38:48
