One of the great companions of our beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam named Fabian peace. He was well known to have a very loud and deep voice. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam used to use him during certain events where he needed someone with a loud voice so the message could reach the people. One day he isolated himself in his house and he was weeping very hard, and that people didn't know what was wrong with him, ask him what was wrong. And he said, I fear that I'm going to be from the people of the Hellfire. They asked him why. He said because of the verse in the Quran that was just revealed. They asked him Which verses this? He said the verse in Surah 200.

00:00:42 --> 00:01:29

Yeah, are you Halina ama no letter FAO? ASWAT. Focus out in B Oh, you believed Do not raise your voice above the voice of the Prophet while I teach her ruler who Bill Kohli Caja, the bow the comb the bow, and do not be loud when you speak to him like you would raise your voice speaking amongst one another and talk about a man or two letter Sharon that your deeds will become worthless while you perceive not. After this, the companions went to the Prophet alayhi salatu salam and told him the story. And he said to them, go until Thabeet give him the glad tidings that he is from the people of Jana SubhanAllah. Look at the Sahaba Roby Allahu Anhu how these verses would have a direct

00:01:29 --> 00:02:06

impact on their hearts. And they would think right away that this might mean me and we read such verses all the time and it never even crossed our mind that perhaps we could fall under this category. We read about the characteristics of the Munna, 15 of the hypocrites and never crosses our mind that we might be from them. Even though many of us have some of the characteristics that are mentioned about them. We're not 15 the hypocrites in the Quran and the Sunnah the great Turnberry even Abby Malaika Rahim Allah He said I met 30 of the companions of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. All of them were scared about hypocrisy for themselves, meaning that they didn't think as he

00:02:06 --> 00:02:42

said that they had the man of Gibreel Emeka eel whereas many of us we believe right away that our human is concrete and we reached a very high level and we can never fall into these categories. Le Mammon has an illusory Rahimullah Huhtala. He said that the one who is scared about hypocrisy he's the true believer, and the one who doesn't have any fear about it. He is the one who is the mafia, even though this great Sahabi Thabeet in haste, Radi Allahu and was promised Jenna from Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he continued to strive. And during the philosopher of Abu Bakr, Siddiq, Radi Allahu and when it was the group of read the the wars of a read depth, and the Battle of

00:02:42 --> 00:03:16

Yamama, where they were fighting, he felt that the fighting wasn't as intense. I mean, it wasn't as strong as it was during the time of the Prophet said, Allahu Allah, he was selling him. So he said to one of the Sahaba, who was with him who was selling Mola Abbey, who they refer was one of the great parties of the Quran. He said, This is not how we used to fight. He said, What do you suggest? He said, I suggest that we dig a trench, so we cannot retreat if the enemy comes, and they stood there and they fought until both of them were blessed with the Shahada. Many of the great scholars of Hadith like Imam Malik Rahim, Allahu taala, when he would mention the name of the Prophet

00:03:16 --> 00:03:44

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he would lower his voice and plumbing this verse out of every respect for Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and not raising his voice when he mentioned his name. This is the respect they show when they mentioned the name of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So what about those who go against his commands and go against his sunnah May Allah subhanho wa Taala make us all from those who show respect for Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in our tone in our actions.
