that he was living in Medina and with food there's all kinds of
things that happen. But he said that he was really sick and he
split up part of his liver
and so when you think about this, Muslim doctors have gone later and
you can't spit up part of your liver
is that that's not biologically possible. So it was something else
so it could have been even you know, a tumor or it could have
been something cancerous you know, soda
Smilla Rahmanir Rahim and 100 I have a bill Alameen wa Salatu was
Salam ala Salle overlay will Arkadin began about Ramadan while
Allah He was happy with that it was Salam. Salam aleikum wa
rahmatullah wa,
Salam Hamdulillah. It is, again, a great pleasure for us to be here.
And this session today is coming out of questions and queries
concerning the month of Muharram itself, the importance of the
month, and then concerning the grandson of the Prophet Solomon
was saying, may Allah be pleased with him? And what actually
happened to him? And what is the Sunni position relative to this?
This is a big topic. And we have a course, where we are dealing with
cults and sects in Islam, different groupings. And we look
at this in detail,
the different factions that broke off and split and it actually
takes it took us months to do this. So what I'd like to do
tonight, is to give you a foundational summary of this. And
to do, you could say a disclaimer to first instead of dealing with
the confusion that comes on the internet, we need to know what
Islam is. So in other words, you have a lot of different reports
that are saying this is the stuff now, we want to know what Islam
is, and where do we stand? And this especially, is coming out of
the spirit of young people. And no Muslims. And people who innocently
want to know what Islam is, there are there are people even online
and that come constantly to our masters who are interested in
Islam. So in order to clear up the confusion around this topic,
we want to
bring some key points about Islam.
And, you know, it's come to me, looking on the internet, the
social media has changed everything. Because now you're
getting pictures and sounds and sites from all over the world. And
it's a confusion that even a new Muslim would even question that
you have pictures of 1000s of people in Iraq,
in Iran, especially in Iraq, and there's a picture that still in my
mind, this 10,000 people hitting themselves.
They're beating themselves sometimes even like blood is
coming out. And they're saying HYAH tuna Hussein, mad tuna
Hussein, and they kept saying this over and over again. They said,
our life is Hussein.
Our death is Hussein.
And this is really strange.
And if we understand our sources and you know even Arabic know
Arabic,
how can they come to this? And how can you be a Muslim when clear
The Koran is saying that you know, my life and my death, you know is
Lillahi Rabbil aalameen It's my life is for Allah. It's clear. And
then also there were big signs that are saying law bake was
saying
and that means we know that from hajj when you're making Hajj. The
tell BIA
is saying love bake Allahumma love bake. Okay, so you're constantly
saying this law Baker lashari. Calaca love bake. So Lubbock means
I am here I am. Oh Allah. Here I am at your service.
I'm here at your service.
And we say it over and over again. Oh Allah. I'm here at your service
alarm here at your service. Last Cherie collec there is no partner
with you. So when you make Hajj, you're saying constantly, there is
no partner with Allah. But yet these 1000s of people are actually
c'est la Baker who is saying
they're saying Oh, Hussein, I am at your service.
So this is strange. Okay, and it's important for us to go, you know,
to the basis of our religion itself, because we are Muslims,
those who submit to Allah.
We're not necessarily part of any particular race, and a nationality
and a group and Allah azza wa jal and certain Maya has told us,
Eliana, acmella convenor come. What Mamta Malik from their
Marathi are a de tu la cumulus la Medina. So this day, I have
perfected for you your religion and completed my favor on you
and have approved for you Islam as your deen your way of life. So
this verse, which many scholars say is coming around Arafat at the
end of the life of the province of Salah. This is one of the last
verses. So it's saying the religion is perfected. And Omar
Maha radula on would say, God said and he said they say why you said
is it because after perfection, they can only come imperfection.
So, this religion is been completed,
it has been chosen by Allah it is clear.
And so, that is the basis in terms of what Allah told us. Because
whenever we have a confusion, we should return to Allah and His
messenger.
Okay, and the Prophet SAW Selim said in authentic hadith and his
different rewires, he said clearly, but direct to come out of
beta and summary Weisen al muhajir, till beta LELO Harca
Nihari Ha, La Jolla, z one her body Illa Halleck.
So, the Prophet said, Verily, I have left you on a clear path,
it's night is the same as the day. So this is clear, there's no
confusion in this.
No one deviates from it after me, but that he will be ruined.
So, the path is clear. The religion is completed.
And so that is the basis of how Muslims do things. Whenever we are
dealing with religious issues, meaning our prayer, fasting or
pilgrimage, that the basis of our theme of our way of life, we have
to go back to Allah and His messenger.
But there's another factor which is important that I want to go
over with you briefly.
And this is a one of the companions of rabada been Saudia,
you know, and he said, once the Prophet Muhammad Salah Salem,
prayed morning prayer with us, and then turned to us and gave us a
sermon, which made our eyes filled with tears, and our hearts quiver.
Just imagine this. This is after fajr so he is speaking so
emotionally to them, that they're literally crying. Right? And then
somebody said to him, O Messenger of Allah, it is as if that was a
Farewell Sermon. So what do you enjoin us with?
So this is so serious, Kandahar Merida turn, my word done. So like
this is this sounds like, you know, they say when the person's
telling you their last words.
So it sounded as though this was this was his last words. So that
Sahabi then said give us some advice.
If this is if these are your last words
then give us some advice. And he replied and he said, I advise you
to fear Allah and to hear and obey your leader even if he may be a
slave
so everyone is my fault okay
so the Prophet SAW Salem then it's a little bit too close.
So the province of Salem is then you know saying to his companions
who Seacombe Taqwa Allah azza wa jal was semi Whata.
Okay, my advice to you is to have the consciousness of Allah. Fear
Allah that's Taqwa again, read, and hear and obey.
And then, you know, he made the statement that is not normally
said, but he wanted us to emphasize, we're into Amara lay
come out, even if a slave becomes your leader, and the way the
society was set up, there were free people. And there were slaves
and slaves were of any race, any color.
It's not just Ethiopian, or it's not just no slave could be Arab
slave could be prison cell man at fantasy, the great ASA hobby Read
the last one, he was a slave. And then he became Muslim. So hey, by
Rumi, who's read the last one who was known as haved, the Roman who
had blond hair and blue eyes, but he was from Iraq. He was a slave.
So slavery, that was the lowest class so in other words, the
Prophet is saying, even if somebody from the lowest class
becomes your emir, your leader, here that person and obey that
person, so He's emphasizing this point.
And this is though it's like his last words. And then he said
something very interesting. And then he said, For indo human Yeah,
Irishman, confessor, yada actually laugh and Khedira so those amongst
you
he said he among you, who lives after me, will see great disputes.
So he's making a prediction to them. That's why he's so
emotional. He said he will see you we'll see if they laugh
differences come in. You're gonna see this but then he comes to the
final part and he says, So adhere to my sunnah. Stay stick to my
sunnah for our lay can be so nutty, was so Nuttall Khalifa rush
18 Admati.
So, add here to my sunnah. So if you got differences, go back to
the Sunnah
and the Sunnah, meaning the way and the commands of the Rightly
Guided caliphs.
Okay, and then he said stick to this. Stick closely to the Sunnah
buy into it with your molars In other words, hold on to the Sunnah
and beware of newly invented madness.
Okay, beware. Where Iyar como Mata that's on Omar.
So hold on to the Sunnah. And beware of newly invented matters
in religion.
So that's not like instead of writing, you know, a donkey, or a
camel, you drive a vehicle. That's an invention. Now, this is in
religion. So somebody changing around the religion, okay, for
every invented Mata, which and that word is Bidda. That's where
the word Bedard comes in. It is a cursed innovation, and it will
lead you astray. So this is clear. Remember the promises Salam said I
have left you on a clear path.
It's night is as clear as today.
Stay on my sunnah
and the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided caliphs, the Prophet SAW
Salem, his sunnah ended when he died.
So after his death, the things that he commanded the things that
he allowed to happen that the sooner is over then but he also
said the right the gate or Guided caliphs, you can also stick to
them. And in terms of that process, I'm also said the
Khilafah the right this is the callus the ones who will take over
the leadership after me in my OMA will last for 30 years.
Then there will be a kingdom to Morocco, no milk. So 30 years
would be Khilafah. These are the words of the process Allah so
authentic hadith in Achmed, tell me the ebony Marja, clearly
authentic, he said 30 years is going to be clear he laughs
and then it will be a kingdom.
So that shows you that those who are coming within the qualifier
Rashi Dean, then it is agreed upon this is Rightly Guided caliphs.
And when you look at the believers who came after him, and this is
part of the miracle of the Prophet SAW Salem, Abu Bakr as Siddiq
Rhodiola one who took over the leadership, it was an oath was
given to him, just after the death of the process Allah eventually
agreed upon by the Mahajan from Mecca and the answer of Medina and
even an ally Rhodiola. One they all agreed on this Abu Bakr ruled
for two years, three months and 10 days.
Our backer then made the choice of Omar he wanted Omar to take over,
it had to be confirmed.
And it was confirmed by the companions. Omar ruled for 10
years, six months and eight days. So basic approximation, but it's
called as trying to be precise.
Houma, then he had been stabbed. And when he was dying, he brought
together who was left of the 10 people promised paradise. And he
said he made a committee, like an election committee selection
committee, and they would select somebody, and then it has to be
approved. And so they selected Horace Mann Ibn our fan radio
alarm on, both men ruled 11 years 11 months and nine days.
Course man was Shaheed also, and we'll talk a little bit about
this, we have time, and he was assassinated. And after his time,
the committee came again. And they chose ally, rather long one
ally rule for four years, nine months and seven days.
Confusion was happening, I'm going to give you a general overview of
the confusion. Ali was stabbed. And on his deathbed, they came to
him and they said, We want your son, Al Hasan to be the leader.
Right? Not was saying, Remember, because al Hassan, he was little
older than Hussein. And the Prophet Salam had said, This boy
is saying it.
Right, so pointing toward Hassan, then but Ali said, I don't say
yes. And I don't say no.
So if he had said yes, then that will be a kingdom. Because the
kingdom is the king, and then the Crown Prince, but he didn't. He
said, I don't say yes. And I don't say no.
Hassan took over.
He was then chosen, the people chose him. And he ruled for six or
seven months. Okay, and then there was a great dispute, which I will
give you some idea of. And he gave over the rule to Maui or even RB,
Sofia, ready allawah. Now, what's the miracle? If you take these
years here? Right, two years, 10 years, 11 years, four years and a
month, it comes to 30 years to the day
to the almost to the day is exactly 30 years.
And that is the miracle of what the Prophet SAW Selim said when he
was talking about, you know, the feel of it, that we can see. And
that included Al Hasan.
Now, one of the questions that came and we don't have to go into
a lot of details about this, everybody's aware of Ashura. I
hope we had a chance you know too fast. Muharram being you know,
that the month that we are in and
And I'll go right through this because because of time and the
province of Salem, as you know when he came to Medina and he saw
the yahood fasting on day of Ashura, the tent, he said, What is
this? They said, this is a righteous day. It is the day when
I last saved the children of Israel from the enemies so Musa
fasted on this day, and the Prophet peace be upon him said we
have more right to Musa than you.
So we fasted on that day, and commanded the Muslims to fast so
that's the Ashura which we have gone through there. So what is
Ashura to us? Remember the Sunnah, right? He said, Follow my son.
That's the basis of our religion. It's a righteous day In another
Hadith.
Okay. Musa Musa faster on this day. And the report says in Sahih
Muslim, it was done in thanksgiving to Allah, so we fast
on this day.
And another Hadith in Bukhari, it states we fast on this day to
venerate the day. In other words, to raise it, you know, religiously
in our eyes to special day.
Another version reported in the Muslim of Imam Ahmed it says, This
is the day on which the Ark Noah's Ark settled on Mount Judy. So Nora
fasted on this day, so this is a celebration.
This is mashallah, this is an important day for us. Okay, that's
the Sunnah. So remember what the promise is under saying I'll lay
can be so naughty. Follow my sunnah. And that is the Sunnah.
There are shorter celebration, Thanksgiving, veneration
remembrance, recognition, that's the basis of Ashura.
And that is the basis that the Companions all the Companions
follow. Now, as you know, for time sake, the promise is, it is
reported by absorbing the Ibis that the Prophet Salam was so keen
to fast on the day of Ashura more than any other day except Ramadan.
That's how important this Ashura was. And that's unfortunate in our
community because people tend to forget our shoulder right?
Some people like last week was okay our shoulder was coming in on
Tuesdays it was
like everybody knows when it's time Ramadan comes and you're
going to you fast in Ramadan and Eid is coming. But this is so
important.
Because in a tradition, the Prophet peace be upon him said
that it will
be an explanation you prefer a senator Madea. So it will wipe
away the sins of the previous year minus says, this is an important
day and that is the basis of our Islamic faith. Stop, full stop.
That is our shoulder. That is the Sunnah. That is our way. Okay,
now, and Tasa. Like I said, the Prophet SAW London, you know, he
spoke about if he could live for another year, he would fast on the
ninth also to be different. Then the year he would, but he never
lived
the next year. So we focus on the ninth and the 10th. Okay, some
scholars say if you couldn't make the ninth and you can do the 11th.
But what was mentioned in our traditions is the ninth and the
10th. Okay, so that's our shoulder. And that's the basis.
And this generation here is the best generation and the Prophet
SAW Salam said, cradle Kowloon colonies, to Medina, yo Luna home,
Tama Lavina, your Luna home, the best generation is my generation,
then the one that follows them, and then the one that follows,
that's the best generation.
So if you are a Muslim, this is the basis of our faith.
These are the foundations in the way that we think. However,
the shaytaan Well, ELO biller is at war with us.
And this is from the beginning of time when he refused to bow down
to Adam, as you know, and he was thrown out, pressed. And he said,
give me respite. Give me a chance I will come in front of them
around them. I will make them change the creation of Allah.
So the war is on this war is not just a physical war. It's an
ideological war. It's a spiritual war. It's an emotional war. And
the Prophet SAW salem said the devil is like a wolf. among humans
as a wolf is among sheep. You see that young boys see the wolf. Same
in the picture. Look at the wolf.
Okay. Doesn't look strange, what's on top of his head.
Okay, so it appears like sheep right
But it's actually a wolf. So the Hadith continues with the Prophet
said it snatches the stray sheep. So beware of the paths which
branch off, adhere to the Jama. Stick to the body of the Muslims,
the masses and the Masjid.
So to be safe, is to stick with the Jamaah and to stick with the
masjid.
And one of the great scholars have been Josie Rahim Allah. He wrote a
very important book I tell these Iblees and this is one of the most
important textbooks in dealing with the different factions and
cults that broke away. And you know, even Josie said, The Devil
rose to the occasion, wherever possible, obscuring, deceiving
embellishing which means make something beautiful and everything
dividing people up. fabricating which means lies right. So this is
how the shaytaan then came back to fight. This is the deceptive
Devil's deception in our OMA
Simon Ibn Zayd
reported. He said once the Prophet SAW Salem stood over one of the
high buildings of Medina. And then he said to the people, do you see
what I see?
And they said no, he said, I see fitten afflictions falling among
your houses, as raindrops fall. I see it coming.
Okay, so he was warning the people and this is the reality of our
life. Our message is perfected. The Sunnah is there, but the
struggle is on. Human beings have the struggle between right and
wrong. And the Prophet SAW Selim gave us a warning that this fitten
is coming What is a fitna
fitna is single, singular. Pittston is the plural fits and is
temptations, trials, sedition. sedition means like our political
conspiracies and things like this civil strife, conflict with
emphasis on affliction, distress, confusion, he said, this will come
to you.
Okay, it's going to fall down. It's going to be all around you,
right? So in other words, we're going to be in a struggle with
fitna until the Day of Resurrection. That is our struggle
on this earth.
And
to make a long story short, again, this is a long discussion.
What the first major fitna that came in in terms of the religion
itself.
It came with a, a yahoodi, a Jewish man who came from Yemen. He
was Yemeni. His name was Abdullah bin saba.
And he came amongst the companions.
And he began to introduce new ideas he started talking about
earlier, but ABI Taalib that he was like a special person and he
was so high and, you know, he was spreading this confusion. He came
to Medina and they kicked him out.
He went to Mecca,
and they kicked him out.
He went to Iraq.
And they kicked him out. He went to Damascus. They throw him out.
But he went to Egypt. And he found followers.
He found followers and his teachings then started to make
confusion.
And his followers
had a wrong idea about Earth man, even a fan radula one.
Now, to understand this, and again, this is a long discussion.
The Prophet SAW Salem came from the tribe of Polish as you know,
that Hashem is Banu Hashim.
And this was a direct line. But there were other families of
Quraysh. There were other sections. And one of the sections,
which is called bento omega two omega it's after a person by the
name who made one of the great grandfather's. He was in a power
struggle long before the prophet the Hashemites. And the Romanians
were struggling for power.
They were struggling for power conservatives, liberals, right.
Democrats, Republicans, Donald Trump in them right there
struggling for power inside of Mecca.
And but Allah
So pero Tala blessed the Hashemite family, through that family came,
the Prophet peace and blessings be upon him.
And it was accepted by all of the Muslims.
But the power
the consolidated power in Mecca, the way the division of power was
in Mecca, the Hashemite people. They were in charge of feeding the
Pilgrims when they came to Mecca, giving water. They were generally
people you go to when you're in need, everybody loved them. The
Romanians were political people. So they had the flag. They had the
police, the military, this was like the division of power in
Mecca, right? So with man been a fan.
He was very close to the Prophet SAW Salem, he married two of the
daughters of the Prophet. You marry one of his daughters, she
died he married another is a great companion, but he was who may it
was an omen yet. He was not a Hashemite
and so Ibn Saba and his people they said watch out for this man
was men.
And Usman, they describe him as a person who, you know, there are
some people who they just say yes for everything. They're like
easygoing, as long as it's halal, right? They'll always say yes,
they say sharp and as the former blind Mufti of Arabia, they said,
the only time he said LA, is when he said La ilaha illAllah.
If you ask Him for anything he said, Now, yes, that's how with
man was
okay. Then so his family member their political people, right? So
they came to with man and they said, let me be the governor of
Syria. Let me be the governor of this. I would like this position.
He said, Oh, no problem.
Other people came he's no problem as long as you're a good person
and you're within you know, the sooner I have no problem.
This is where fitna
fitna absorbent seven is people they start to say, watch this
Earth man. Watch him, his trouble is given position to his family.
And some people in Egypt and in Syria, and in Kufa, some people
they were no Muslims.
So they listened to this fitna this confusion and they saw it
with men as a tyrant.
And they came to Medina and the word came to Ali radula This is
Ali now
is Hashimi Ali said we will protect worth men. So anybody
coming from this group, Ibn sabhas group, we will arrest them, we
will fight them they will never enter the city. They will have no
struck with man said no fighting in Medina.
I want no fighting. He did not allow the people to attack the
followers of Ibn Saba. He didn't want blood in Medina, based on
him. Really pious person.
Ali said, Okay, I'm sending Hassan and Hussein stand in front of
Goodman's house,
stands in front of his house.
That's the best we can do. The it's a long story, but the
satellites, they crawled in back of the roof of Earth man, and they
jumped inside. And then they they they they hit him with the sword.
And
he was reading the Quran. And blood dropped onto the court and
itself to a place where it said but Allah will suffice you against
them. And he is all here all hearing and all knowing. And his
wife, she was trying to stop them right. This is the reality that we
have to deal with reality of human beings.
She was trying to stop these satellites. And she put her hand
up and they chopped off her finger.
And the blood of an Earth man fell down on the court and itself.
So this is now once this happened. The satellites ran and they hit
amongst the people. And it was it was confusion
was man Rhodiola Juan de Khalifa had been killed. Now what do you
do at a time like this? They gathered together
Nigella Rhodiola and that's the, you know, his, his wife, she sent
the * quote and she sent her finger
up to Syria, because Maria, who is the oldest member of the Romanian
family, he also was one of the writers of the Quran.
Okay, he was the leader. He was the governor. And he gathered the
Romanians and you could imagine how emotional they were.
That was man had been killed.
At the finger of this pious woman, and they went berserk, and they
wanted revenge. And they said, The most important thing is revenge,
we must take revenge.
And
so now we are then put out the calls from Syria, Ali rhodiola,
one who is known for his wisdom, He gathered together the selection
committee member, the committee that shows with men
and those people who are pious, and he said, You cannot go one day
without a leader, we have to have a Khalifa. So choose. And they
selected Ali, to be the Khalifa.
And that is validly accepted by the scholars. It was really the
key issue was revenge versus political stability.
Are we going to get emotional or are we going to consolidate the
rule? An ally radula, one he consolidated?
Now,
a lot of things went on, there was even a difference of opinion with
Aisha herself. Are you sure? You know, there's a lot of confusion.
So she left Medina, and some of the companions, Callahan Zubayr.
Some of them left with her. And they said like, this is a
confusion. You know, let's come out of it. But eventually, to give
you the main points, more how we said we must have the killers
before anything else. We have to have the killers.
Ali said no, we have to consolidate. And so then Mao here
his army started to move. And Ally gathered together the troops he
was the he was the mayor of Mount Rainier. Now, we will defend
Islam. And so two armies were facing each other. And the Prophet
SAW Salem had said in a hadith, the our will not begin until two
great groups fight one another. And there will be a great battle
between them. Although they're called as one.
They have one Arcada.
But they're going to fight. This is what he said. Okay, so these
two armies faced each other. And this is a battle, which is called
the Battle of Siffin. The Battle of Sofia,
while we aside is their ally side is there. They didn't want to
fight.
They were trying to negotiate. But the followers of Ibn Saba and he
mama Tabari, and other scholars, even cathedra and many other
scholars, bring traditions to show the followers of Abdullah bin
saba. They went amongst all these people, they hit, they went
amongst my area. And they started to cause this fitna and this
confusion. And so eventually, they clashed.
And there was a battle between the two forces. It was an intense
battle.
But Ali was a lion, he was a lion.
And his forces were were resolute. And so they were prevailing over
the forces of Moria. And at that point, Medallia then said, Call
for arbitration, how you going to stop the battle, they took
sections of the court and put it on the spears.
They said, Let the Koran decide.
Everybody stopped.
And they said, No more fighting. Because nobody really wanted to
fight. It's just this fitna, you see the sedition, the shaytaan.
That's the power. Nobody wanted to fight. So they call for
arbitration. And there was a an arbitration. And the two sides had
representatives on my Alas, represented Maria and Abu Musa,
actually, he represented ally.
So they negotiated now how are we going to solve this problem?
Ali sang clear, a clear I'm chosen Ameerul Momineen.
You know, we have won the battle. It's very clear. And there's a lot
of reports that happen to be I spent hours going over this. And
there's a lot of different discussions, some of the
discussions. It's not 100% authentic, but they say that our
mobile OS tricked Abu Musa
but that's not totally confirmed. In any event, to give you the
summary, they couldn't come to an agreement.
Okay, so ally then he took his force, and he left toward Kufa
that's part of Iraq. Right. So he left toward Kufa
and there were amongst his followers. There was a large group
of people
they had lost
Have they lost their minds as well? It is the devil's deception.
And about 12,000 of them. And they said, We're going to leave the
group of ally, we can't take this.
Because you shouldn't be deciding the Koran should decide. And so
they they they said, they went out to a place called how Dora. And
this group is called hardage.
The people who went outside of Ali,
and the first person of the karate is their first leader was dual
hawaiiusa at Tamimi.
He was the first leader.
And their sickness was they prefer their opinion, over the opinion of
the province of Salem, and, you know, his his qualifier, Russia
Dean, they said, No, we're right. We're not going to accept you,
we're not going to accept any of you.
There confusion makers, and they went outside,
eventually, after negotiation, or they tried to negotiate with them,
you know, gave them whatever they want. And what is this the sick
thing about this, and this is important that we need to know
because we recently came out of the whole confusion with ISIS and
all these different groups, right? People who even look like Muslims,
who may appear to be more pious than other people.
This coverage people
the Prophet SAW salem said,
He predicted they would come and he said this coverage, your
prayers will be not like their press. They will pray so much.
Their eyes are red, their heads are calloused.
But they will leave the religion like beads falling off a string.
And he called them Killa Bucha Hanim. They will be the dogs of
health.
And they were crazy people killing companions. So Ali eventually got
his army together.
And he defeated them at number one.
He totally defeated and the coverage, then scattered and he
went underground.
A group of the coverage went to a country called Romain yeild
Omanis, the Arabian Peninsula. It's called ramen.
So they hid in the mountains of Romain. It's a very mountainous
country.
Another group went to El Jezza, Algeria, there was a group of
Coloradans who ended up in Algeria.
But from amongst the leaders of the Faraj, they said, you know,
we're going to deal with these people.
Okay, so they sent assassins to kill Ali. Moussa. And also
amabilis.
The one that came to hammer they caught him on the road.
The one that came to my area,
you know, he stabbed Maria. Right. But you know, he was heavyset. I
don't want to go into the details. But you know, they were able to
take out the poison. He left
this up dramatic animaljam he succeeded in hitting ally with the
knife, who was poisoned.
And
these are the coverage.
And that was that that was how the shaytaan had tricked them. But the
shaytaan also tricked
other people as well, based upon this confusion. Okay, so now you
have it.
That Ally has been poisoned, stabbed, they came to him and they
said your son, he said, No, I don't say yes, I don't say no. But
he died and they chose Al Hasan tend to be the Khalif.
Another form of tell beasts, the deception of the devil came with
the birth of the group we now know as Shia.
Okay, and the Shia itself the word Shia.
It means a group
or a sect.
If it was an America, I want everybody to wake up. You would
have Shia to Trump and Shia to Biden.
Right? The party of Biden and the party of Trump.
That's how the word shear was used at that time. So it was she had to
ally and she had to move out. Yeah.
That's the first use of the word.
Everybody had the same belief system. Everybody prayed the same,
faster, the same. Ramadan, the same, everything the same, but
that's the word is being used now, after the death of Ali radula one.
As you know, her son gave
The authority to Mahalia.
So why are we as group was no longer called Shia Tomo? Yeah, he
was the government. He was Ameerul Momineen. So there's no word she's
a little group, right? He's now Ameerul Momineen.
But the word Shia to our Li, the ones who are still supporting
Ali's family, the word state. So this is where the word is coming
from. Okay, the Arabic And then now,
when Mao we took over that year was called the year of the JAMA,
the year of united body of Muslims. Peace, came back to the
land was saying, Hello Hussein.
He accepted Marwa.
The other companions, they all accepted warrior
to the point where they even went out in jihad to struggle against
people who were fighting the Muslims. They sent an army to
Constantinople, which is now Istanbul. They built navies. They
were spreading Islam. That was the year of the GEMA was Maori is
Yeah. So peace had come back in the land.
Al Hasan This is where the Hassan died. Some say he was poisoned,
Allah knows best.
But he died in Medina
and Maori are still ruling the greatest mistake of malaria.
Remember, he was catchable? Ye
he was the person one of the people who wrote the Revelation.
That's how close he was to the Prophet SAW Selim. But his mistake
was he trusted his son.
He wanted his son to rule after him. This is a human weakness that
many people have. See Ali Ali didn't do that.
But wow, you got weak. And he made as his crown prince to be his son
Yazeed.
And the majority of the companions,
they accepted the choice of Yazeed. But there was some there
was opposition to Yazeed. The main people who are against Yazeed
was Al Hussein Ibn Ali, Al Hassan had died. We're saying said no, I
don't accept him. There's a lot of discussion about Yazeed and
there's a lot of lies and fables or whatever. But he wasn't
suitable to be the Khalifa.
Also, Abdullah he Ibn Omar ibn Al hardtop, famous abdulai great
scholar
Abdullah ibn Zubair,
one of the great Zermatt, Zuberi Ebola one great companion,
Abdullah ibn abas
great companions, Abdul Rahman Ibn Abubakar Ibaka son. So these
people here were contenders to your seat, because they actually
had more qualities rather than using if it was just by merit,
meritocracy, who's the best one of them? Should it be the cleaver
but politics came, politics came. So yes, he was then taking over.
Now concerning the people themselves.
Abdullah ibn Roma
and Abdullah Bonilla, bass, they said, We don't want fitna we take
pledge to your seat. Because we don't want any more fighting. You
know, we already had this fighting. Leave him. You know,
he's a leader. He's basically Muslim. Let them go. We don't want
fitna but Al Hussein and Abdullah ibn Zubia. They refuse to accept
and they will all in Medina. And the representatives of Yazeed came
to Medina and said everybody take the oath.
And they came to live in Zubair, and Hussein. And they said, give
us some time to think about it. And at night, they fled and they
went to Mecca.
So they refuse to take out the ban.
Okay, so
it wasn't only Hussein,
who was against
it was also absorbent Zubair absorbent our bass was also
against.
He stayed in Medina, he was sort of in between, but he was also
against. Okay, so now that's the scenario now. Yazeed is in
Damascus.
Abdullah bin Zubair is in Mecca.
He doesn't accept Yazeed
and he ruled over
Medina Mecca jazz for 20 years against Yazeed.
You see people think that the only one that was against Yazeed was
saying no absorbent Zubair had his own free Laffitte he refused him
and he was ruling there in Mecca itself. Okay. So, Al Hussein, who
was very courageous person are the Prophet Salam loved him so much
they say, of the companions, you know, he looked the most like the
prophet like he looked like.
Okay, and people loved Hussein
and in Iraq, Ali wanted when remember Ali, when the confusion
was happening. He said, I'm taking politics out of Mecca and Medina.
So he moved the capital of Islam to Iraq, to a city called Kufa.
Kufa
now when you look at the map of Iraq today, you're not going to
see Kufa like you'll see now, Jeff,
because who was like a section of nudges Najaf itself so Ali moved
the capital, the political capital to Iraq. But the cufon people
are strange people that what we call fickle, fickle means they're
with you or against you. Like I said, my class the other day is
like Toronto fans. You know, if the Toronto Blue Jays are winning,
everybody's for them. If the Raptors but if you lose,
everyone's against you.
It's like fickle, right? One day, they're for you one day, they're
against you. That's how cufon people are. They're not very
loyal.
Okay, so they sent letters to Hussein.
And they said, Come to us, we will fight Yazeed with you will fight
them. So just come to us.
The Companions many of the companions told him don't do it.
Even as Zubayr said, Maybe you should go.
The other companions, they said no stay. But Hussein was determined.
He was a determined person. So he sent now his relative Muslim Ibn
Akela. Okay, well, he sent him to Kufa to see if it was true.
And he ended up in Kufa and Yazeed robberies in Damascus, right. So
Yazeed then sent a ruthless character.
This is one of the biggest villains in this whole story. And
people don't mention this person, but he is one of the biggest
villains. His name was obey the law, Ibn Z yet
he was a ruthless politician. And so he was sent to Kufa
and he crushed the rebellion and Muslim appeal. He killed Muslim.
But Hussein didn't know he didn't have a cell phone right? There's
no internet. So how is he going to know that his man has been killed
in Kufa so he starts moving toward Kufa with his family and with the
family of other of his little bait? The family of the Prophet
SAW salah they started to move toward Kufa
and even Ziad now is the leader
and Ibn Ziad asked Yazeed I need help
send me an army of numerous soldier strong soldiers. So there
was an army that was going north to the Turkish lands fight in a
group called the daily daily mites. This army was led by Omar
ibn Saudi but ABI Waqqas sada Barnaby Waqqas is one of the was
the leader of the Muslims his promised paradise before his
death. He led the Muslims to defeat the Persians. His son Omar
was being sent to fight the Turks.
Okay, so his his army was diverted from the Turkish lands into the
area of Kufa. Okay, and he was reluctant.
Omar was he did not want to fight Hussein. Because now Hussein had
reached Kedah, Bella which is outside of Kufa in the desert. And
now we realized the coup Finns have now turned against
you have nobody
Omar did not want to do this but Ibn Ziad said if you do not do
this, you will be killed too.
And your army will be killed.
And so
if in Ziad then he is the villain serious villain in this situation.
Okay. And there's a there's a lot of details of
all the dialogues that went on and whatnot, but eventually
Allah was saying, I think was about 72 men were with him and the
women and the children. And then this army was there, you know, a
few 1000 People were saying was resolute. He was a resolute
person. Even some of the people in the army of our Ummah went over to
her saying,
but it wasn't enough.
And so they ended up fighting many of these new Muslims from Syria,
who are going to fight the Turks. They didn't, they were not Sahaba
they were not not even like tabby. And they were people who were
like, no Muslims and just Allegiant to Yazeed.
So they fought, and they killed Hussein Rhodiola Juan, and the men
of his family
and
his son, Ali Zainul, RBD.
He was really sick.
And so he was in the tent of the women, because he was he had a
fever. And so he was intense. So they killed all the men, and they,
you know, captured the women, and they hit Ollie underneath and a
buyer like they hit him.
So he could live.
Okay, and they were they were captured and they were taken to
Damascus. Yazeed. Again, there's a lot of lies and discussion, but
basically we understand that Yazeed did not.
It was not most scholars say, it wasn't his intention to kill
Hussein. Allah knows best. But he but he's still guilty because he
sent his forces he said Ibn Ziad
so he's still guilty. So he took the all the women in the family,
he did not make them slaves. He freed them, gave them stipends.
Ali Zainul, Aberdeen was also you know, there he was freed. Ali
becomes the next of the Imams. You know, you have to 12 Imams. So Ali
is the one that comes next underneath Hussein, because he
survived.
Now, time is going by, but the people of Kufa
who are the biggest villains in this
Ibn Ziad,
the people of Kufa are probably the biggest villains of all of the
people in this because they left Hussein they left him to be
killed.
And when the word came to Medina, what the people of Kufa had had
done. Some of the companions even made dua against the people of
Kufa Allah and Allah Allah him.
They curse the people of Kufa by doing this, so afterwards the
people of Kufa
who realized what they had done, they went to Cat Bella
and they wanted to repeat
so they started to do crying and beating their faces, feeding their
bodies looks familiar. You ever see it online?
They started doing this right? They start crying and they start
carrying on beating themselves but they call Tassia
and extremism they started to do thinking that by their blood or by
beating themselves Allah would forgive them that's not Islamic
right? The process Salam Salah dot O Allah Dara, don't harm yourself
and don't harm anybody.
But these are the people called a Toba boon,
a toe boon and it is this practice. Okay, that was carried
on because it was the 10th of Muharram Ashura day that Hussein
was killed.
So these Towba Boon practices continued on. It's almost like a
curse, right? These people are cursed. This has nothing to do
with with Islam. Because if you think about this, Allah said, you
know, those people who die on the path of Allah, they are with their
Lord. They are happy they are in paradise. Why are you crying about
them? What is sad? We're saying is in Jannah. You see
why what happens after this?
This is an important point
is that the maids continue to rule.
Abdullah Ubinas Zubair fights them in Mecca. Eventually he is killed
himself. And omae it's take over.
Okay, and now, the family of ally remember how the Zainul RBD and
the family members, they have to hide themselves?
And the people who are protecting Zainal RBD and the family of the
province of Salem. This is what is called Shia to Holly. And this is
Shia, but at that time, it is only political Shia.
What do I mean by political Shia?
One of the Imams of the that came underneath Ali Zainul RBD Jaffa
Imam jofra sodic. He was a great scholar. He was a friend of Imam
Malik, the great Sunday Imam
and Imam Malik said every time every time I saw Imam Jaffa he was
either making dua he was either praying he was making dhikr he was
reading the Quran. There was no difference in the prayers. There
was no difference in their faith. No difference. It was political
Shiism.
Later on what happened is extreme elements in Kufa, add in Basra
came into the underground Shia movement. And new ideas started to
come in Kufa, you have occult groups, magic, remember the Quran
said that magic came down were in Babel, Iraq. So there was magical
groups, occult and so they came together and they formed an
underground group, former members of the suspended Persian dynasty,
Ibn Subhas followers, they all came together to form this new
form of what I would call theological Shiism. See the
difference between political Shiism and theological theological
Shiism? It changes now, where they actually have different concepts.
They started to believe that the Imams are like prophets, they are
my assume they do not they are infallible.
The Quran is not complete, they start cursing the companions. This
is the illogical Shiism. Now there's another interesting point
because we don't have much time.
One of the Imams came down later Imam Zaid ibn Ali ibn Al Hussein.
Okay, so this is one of Hussein son called Ali. Right Ali. Ze
labin. His one of his sons is eight.
Okay. And Zaid was against also the ruling people at the time,
okay, which is I think was the ambassador no domains. Yeah, he
was against the domains. And so he went to Iraq and the new brand of
Shia that's theological Shia. Right. They came to Imam Zaid, and
they said, We will support you. If you curse Abu Bakr, and you curse
coma.
Imams aide said these are my grandparents. I love Abu Bakr. I
love Oman. I will not curse them. And so this new theological
Shiism,
they left zayde They left them in the desert.
And Olay it came. And they killed Zaid, but his followers went to
Yemen
as follows went to Yemen, and they formed the group which is called
ze D Yeah.
In Yemen, the shears in order booties
with their day with the knives Who are you know, blowing up the ships
and Red Sea? Maybe the bravest people in the Muslim world right
now is a hoot is right. There is ladies, the ladies are not
theological Shia. They do not believe that imams are infallible.
They pray almost the same as us. The only difference was political.
They believe Ali should be should have been the Khalifa. So that's
the idea of Yemen.
And that there's a lot of differences in this you need to go
online and get the course I may have to teach this course over
again you know so we can really get these details because this
confusion is not going to end with a few moments left I want to open
up the floor for any questions that anybody may have concerning
this floor is open
yeah
yeah
right but but but the process someone said very clearly the one
that's right is my analogy. He was happy. The one that I am on and my
companions, this is the right group. So it's not a little tiny
little organization in a building saying we are the one all of the
Sunnah, imams, all our leaders who are following sunnah. That's the
group which is on the right path
but
The process alone, he said we will break into different groups. I
want to teach this course again because I'm showing you all the
groups. And you'll be surprised some of the groups that broke off
all the different names. This is the insanity of people, right?
tribalism, greed. You know, where they form these different groups
of organizations. However, he said the one which is successful is the
one I am on and my companions. Just like he said, clearly, I left
you on a clear path. It's night is like it's day.
Okay. So if you go to the sooner you follow it, learn it, practice
it, not the confusions that come after it by different people. were
safe.
Once you go into the confusions and splits and groups, that's
where the shaytaan will come in. Well, yeah, the biller to make the
lies to make embellishments and confusion, and Sedition that came
into the OMA. Okay, any other questions or anybody else? Yes.
Daga carnies again, you know this is a long discussion but we're
saying right ally Zainul Aberdeen and then it starts to go down
Jaffa assault and it goes down to the six Jaffa a Sonic and then
under his time was is my yield. And then there was Musa Kadam so
it is under, you know, his son
Jaffas son sun, they didn't accept him as the the Imam. And so I'm a
group stayed with him. And this group was called Ismailis.
And it's my only group. There she is, but they stopped at seven,
seven Imams not 12. So the concept iya and they broke into two
groups. One group went to Yemen, another group went to India and
East Africa. And they call them now that the Hoja you know, people
and then the Agha Khan, the leader was called Agha Khan. Right.
And that is the Israelis drive along the Don Valley and look up
at the hill on the top of the hill there right that beautiful
building. That's them. Another group is an East African called
Buddha.
The Buddha people, the men wear hats. They're here in Toronto, but
they're very underground like called Bora.
They're in India and they're in East Africa, the whole Jabara.
They're not Ismailis.
They're different than men where there's gold hat and the women
have a certain type of burqa that they wear, they have a temple here
in Toronto. Okay, so these are the little groups that broke off.
There's so many of them, we need more time Inshallah, in the
future, you know, I might teach this course again, looks like I'm
going to be teaching it again. You know, but people need to really
you need to study this. Because once you study it, it becomes very
clear.
If you don't have a frame of reference of the Sunnah,
and a frame of reference of the groups that broke off, you can
become confused to the point where you go online, and the people are
saying hi, Allatoona Hussain, Matt tuna who's saying, my life is
Hussein my data? Where'd you get this from?
Your life is for Allah. Lila, his
Your death is for Allah. And then they say love bake? Yeah, Hussein.
I'm here or who say no, we say a big love bake Allah whom Allah
bake.
You say I'm here, oh Allah. That's what * say right? What Hajj is
it? And now what's going to come up and I'm giving you a warning.
40 days after Ashura
is another celebration called outer buying.
And people walk from Niger if they walk to Karbala.
They claim this millions of people I don't believe these claims they
claim is 21 million people.
I don't believe that it's possible. We have enough confusion
with two 3 million. How are you going to deal with 21 million
people walking on the road? What are you going to want to have to
eat food?
Where are they going to sleep? 21 million people.
But anyhow,
that's the confusion we have. It's called Arbaeen. So don't get
shocked when you see this coming online.
Right? And they're still debating themselves ZIL?
Okay. But according to the Companions, when they heard what
the people of Kufa did to Hussein, who was one of our heroes, a great
hero of Islam, rather long one, they curse these people.
And when you look at these people up until today, beating themselves
it's like a curse. May Allah help them. We have to pray for them.
am Allah would help them to see what the Sunnah really is. You're
not gaining the pleasure of Allah by bloodying your body and your
head.
This is the this is Toby's bliss. This is the deception of the devil
on the people in within this ummah. So thank Allah subhanaw
taala that we have the Sunnah, the clear way of the Sangha and stay
on it, stick on to it. Right and avoid any of the little groups
that split off and break intersections. The other final
questions I think when at the end right now
Yeah, so Joffrey Imam Jaffa was the sixth Imam. You will from
Allah Zainul Aberdeen, they start going down, Hassan Hussein, you
know, Ali, you know, they start going down. The sixth Imam was
Imam Jaffa. Like I say he was a great scholar of Islam. He was the
colleague of Imam Malik. And so he had writings and things like this.
So they codified what's supposed to be his teachings we're not even
sure if it really is. And they caught they codified this and they
say this is the way of Imam Jaffa there were a lot of imams in the
Sunnah besides the four. There were more Imams. So they codified
it and they say Joffrey school of thought, but the Jaffa the school
of thought is not sunnah.
The books that they read are not Bukhari and Muslim. So it is not
recognized as the fifth Madhava whatever it's not recognized.
That's
so this is the thing now. Again, epidural Josie in his book, Toby's
Iblees, he said, This is the devil's deception. Deception is
something where you can get confused. So they're actually
confused into thinking that they are correct. And human beings have
a tendency to follow the crowd. Everybody follows the crowd and
starts to do things even amongst the Sunnah. We have some strange
groups in the sunnah to write
will do some crazy things to write. You have Broadway's you
have a lot of people write
about their son. So people have a tendency to get weak. This is a
very unfortunate thing. The scholars in Arabia consider the 12
V mamas it naturally to be Muslims. So they make Hajj
we consider them to be part of the ummah. But their practice
according to the what we saw in the Hadith, it's because
it is an innovation. You make pilgrimage to to Kufa to Canada,
instead of to Mecca Mecca. You say, you know love bake Hussain,
instead of Lubbock, Allah Humala bake this is a bit
but the fact that a person does a bid does not necessarily take them
outside of Islam.
Okay, so we consider them to be Muslim, but the practices are
outside of Islam.
Yeah,
yeah.
Yeah, so if we give you an example, when the Crusaders came,
and they were attacking the Muslim world,
the the Seljuks were Turkish, and also the family of the bluebirds.
They were Kurdish. Right? They struggled against the Crusaders.
And they as the Shia, the Fatimids Shia who were in Egypt. At that
time, they made an alliance temporary alliance with them to
fight the Crusaders.
And Sultan Salahuddin, Allah, UB. He eventually took over the
leadership of Egypt. Now, he said we're gonna clean this up.
So he made sunnah to be the way of Egypt. But there was an alliance
because of a greater evil. So similarly, today, there is an
alliance. And you know, the question came to me, I'm going to
be very straightforward, especially for the new Muslims.
They say, Okay, where's the Sunnis? Where's the Sunnis today?
Where are they? Number one, the ze. These are very similar to us.
But you have to remember, the tip of the spear
that is fighting Zionism are the Palestinian Muslims. And the
Palestinian Muslims are 100% sunnah. So you want to know where
the Sunnah is? It's the tip of the spear. And this is the group this
could be the group that the prophets of salaam spoke about
taught over 10 months Surah there will always be a victorious group
who will continue to fight even if everybody goes against them until
Allah decides what will happen in history.
So may Allah subhanaw taala clear up things for us, especially our
youth and the new Muslims. May Allah bring the Sunnah back to
life in the world. May Allah forgive all of the people who are
making mistakes and guide them back to the truth. And may Allah
give victory to the Muslims on the ground, and especially the
innocent people in Gaza and Philistine and Sudan and Kashmir.
May Allah give victory to the Muslims throughout the world.
