Right now, shyness and modesty and higher. There are different types

00:00:04 --> 00:00:07

one is modesty in front of Allah. One is modesty in front of others.

00:00:08 --> 00:00:11

Then there's some wrong modesty, misunderstood modesty. So we'll

00:00:11 --> 00:00:15

quickly go through that. The best modesty is modesty before Allah.

00:00:16 --> 00:00:19

Because if you're modest before Allah, and Allah is always

00:00:19 --> 00:00:22

watching that we're always going to be modest because Allah is

00:00:22 --> 00:00:26

always watching, followed by modesty before people.

00:00:28 --> 00:00:33

However, only in those things which entail no disobedience and

00:00:33 --> 00:00:34

is not disliked.

00:00:38 --> 00:00:42

hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa salatu salam ala Maga Ruthie

00:00:42 --> 00:00:46

Ramadan EULA al Amin, or either early he was Safi or Baraka was

00:00:46 --> 00:00:48

seldom at the Sleeman Caffee Ron Ely Amin Deen.

00:00:50 --> 00:00:51

Okay, let us

00:00:52 --> 00:01:01

talk about shamelessness behind shamelessness in Arabic work AHA

00:01:02 --> 00:01:04

it's called waka opposite of higher.

00:01:05 --> 00:01:08

Now we have to be careful here is that what is higher what is

00:01:08 --> 00:01:12

modesty? Higher is modesty hierarchy or cheesy right? So

00:01:12 --> 00:01:18

firstly, higher and modesty refers to this capacity and power to

00:01:18 --> 00:01:19

restrain oneself.

00:01:21 --> 00:01:25

Why I'm going to restrain myself from doing this out of fear of

00:01:25 --> 00:01:28

committing a morally repulsive Act.

00:01:29 --> 00:01:34

The Buddha fell may it's gonna he can Machado. I can't let myself in

00:01:34 --> 00:01:40

May I see But naked secto Massa Dominica Seto that feeling is

00:01:40 --> 00:01:40

higher.

00:01:42 --> 00:01:43

That means we have to have boundaries. We have to have

00:01:43 --> 00:01:46

principles. If you don't have boundaries and you're willing to

00:01:46 --> 00:01:52

do anything then you can't have higher higher boundaries get no

00:01:52 --> 00:01:56

this is my line. I know he's doing this but I can't do this.

00:01:58 --> 00:02:01

Some people will swear or others but they will never swear back.

00:02:01 --> 00:02:02

That's not something I do.

00:02:05 --> 00:02:09

It is narrated that Abdullah Masuda the Allahu Anhu said that

00:02:09 --> 00:02:12

the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Be shy in front of

00:02:12 --> 00:02:16

Allah. This is the beautiful Hadith have higher from Allah

00:02:17 --> 00:02:21

have higher which is modesty shyness in front of Allah as much

00:02:21 --> 00:02:22

as this is right.

00:02:23 --> 00:02:29

So the Sahaba said, we are ashamed in front of Allah, Ya rasool

00:02:29 --> 00:02:30

Allah, we are ashamed.

00:02:32 --> 00:02:36

May Allah be praised Alhamdulillah the Prophet salallahu Salam said,

00:02:36 --> 00:02:39

No, you have not understood it correctly. That's not what I mean.

00:02:40 --> 00:02:43

Shyness in front of Allah. Now look how comprehensive This is,

00:02:43 --> 00:02:49

shyness in front of Allah. Proper, higher is meaning proper, higher,

00:02:50 --> 00:02:53

according to the right that Allah deserves from us that much higher

00:02:54 --> 00:02:58

is that you safeguard your head, which means the whole head, your

00:02:58 --> 00:03:04

stomach, and all of your limbs and faculties and everything they

00:03:04 --> 00:03:09

contain. So if we're protecting, if we're safeguarding our head,

00:03:09 --> 00:03:12

that means we're safeguarding our ears, safeguarding our tongue,

00:03:12 --> 00:03:16

safeguarding our eyes. And the next point, he says, and that you

00:03:16 --> 00:03:22

remember death, and the decaying bones in the grave. That's a wake

00:03:22 --> 00:03:27

up call that keeps us grounded. Then he says that a prophet saw

00:03:27 --> 00:03:31

some said, Whoever truly seeks the afterlife, just whoever seeks the

00:03:31 --> 00:03:32

hero

00:03:34 --> 00:03:38

will inevitably definitely discard the ornaments of this life.

00:03:39 --> 00:03:43

Meaning he won't be running after just

00:03:45 --> 00:03:50

he'll get what he needs. But he's not after just beauty. So is his

00:03:50 --> 00:03:53

phone works. He's not going to buy the next one just because it's the

00:03:53 --> 00:03:53

new one.

00:03:55 --> 00:03:57

If he needs it, you'll buy it. But he's not going to buy a new one.

00:03:57 --> 00:04:01

I'll give gender to Apple every year. Even though there's nothing

00:04:01 --> 00:04:06

extra you're getting. Some people they give gender charity to Apple

00:04:06 --> 00:04:09

every year by getting a new iPhone, even though they don't

00:04:09 --> 00:04:13

need it. As McQueen He is new to it just slightly different design

00:04:13 --> 00:04:19

and is the number 15 instead of 16 instead of 10 or 15 or 14 That's

00:04:19 --> 00:04:22

what it is. She's giving charity because they need your charity

00:04:22 --> 00:04:24

Mashallah. Give it to the Muslims.

00:04:25 --> 00:04:26

So,

00:04:28 --> 00:04:32

if you need it Bismillah go ahead and buy it if you can. hamdulillah

00:04:32 --> 00:04:37

so he says that whoever truly seeks the afterlife will discard

00:04:37 --> 00:04:41

the ornaments of this life and prefers the everlasting life over

00:04:41 --> 00:04:47

this fleeting life. Whoever does all of this he has been truly shy

00:04:47 --> 00:04:51

in front of Allah as much as it is right? That's the beautiful

00:04:51 --> 00:04:52

Hadith.

00:04:54 --> 00:04:58

Right now, shyness and modesty and higher. There are different types

00:04:58 --> 00:04:59

one is modesty in front of Allah

00:05:00 --> 00:05:03

When is modesty in front of others? Then there's some wrong

00:05:03 --> 00:05:07

modesty, misunderstood modesty. So we'll quickly go through that. The

00:05:07 --> 00:05:11

best modesty is modesty before Allah. Because if you're modest

00:05:11 --> 00:05:15

before Allah and Allah is always watching then we're always going

00:05:15 --> 00:05:18

to be modest because Allah is always watching followed by

00:05:18 --> 00:05:20

modesty before people

00:05:22 --> 00:05:27

however, only in those things which entail no disobedience and

00:05:27 --> 00:05:31

is not disliked. What does that mean? For example, you're a

00:05:31 --> 00:05:35

naturally shy person somebody's doing something completely haram

00:05:35 --> 00:05:36

and wrong.

00:05:37 --> 00:05:39

Should you exercise your shyness there

00:05:40 --> 00:05:44

by not saying anything? Because you don't want to upset the boat.

00:05:45 --> 00:05:47

You don't want to be seen as somebody saying something so yeah,

00:05:47 --> 00:05:51

you happy you you you even smile at the person is doing completely

00:05:51 --> 00:05:56

haram Zina Corrado that shyness is blameworthy, It's haram, it's not

00:05:56 --> 00:05:57

right.

00:05:58 --> 00:06:02

So the shyness we're talking about is shyness for the deen. Many

00:06:02 --> 00:06:07

people are naturally shy. So when co-coach Bonacini doctor, they

00:06:07 --> 00:06:11

don't like to step out. They don't like to make themselves that they

00:06:11 --> 00:06:11

don't want to

00:06:13 --> 00:06:17

make a point, you know, that's natural shyness. It is no reward

00:06:17 --> 00:06:18

for that.

00:06:19 --> 00:06:24

The reward is when you abstain and withhold yourself where it's

00:06:24 --> 00:06:28

strategically beneficial for the sake of the dean. What leads you

00:06:29 --> 00:06:33

to be shy, is the Dean even though you are outgoing, maybe even

00:06:33 --> 00:06:35

though you would have done something you would have said

00:06:35 --> 00:06:38

something. But in this case, now for the sake of Allah, I'm not

00:06:38 --> 00:06:43

saying anything, because it's bad. So higher, we're talking about is

00:06:43 --> 00:06:47

higher, and the shyness, which is religious shyness, religious

00:06:47 --> 00:06:50

shyness, not just natural sort of shyness. If you're an introvert,

00:06:51 --> 00:06:54

you don't say anything to anyone, then it might be fine most of the

00:06:54 --> 00:06:57

time, but sometimes when you shouldn't be saying something, or

00:06:57 --> 00:06:59

somebody tells you give a damn, you can't give a run.

00:07:00 --> 00:07:03

Because you're too shy to give a run. You're too shy to do the

00:07:03 --> 00:07:06

iqama you're too shy to lead the prayer.

00:07:07 --> 00:07:09

That's not right. And you're the best person lead the prayer but

00:07:09 --> 00:07:12

no, I'm to magician Luxuria

00:07:13 --> 00:07:15

Shemitah you know, so

00:07:17 --> 00:07:22

if shyness is going to create disobedience

00:07:25 --> 00:07:29

shut such as shyness from commanding good or forbidding

00:07:29 --> 00:07:33

evil, or leaving the Sunnah out. For example, you're shy to use the

00:07:33 --> 00:07:40

miswak you're shy to wear Toby and cover your head. You're too shy to

00:07:40 --> 00:07:42

shorten your garment. So you let it dangle.

00:07:43 --> 00:07:48

You're too shy to keep it above you know, above the ankles. You're

00:07:48 --> 00:07:50

shy to wear patch the garments.

00:07:53 --> 00:07:58

If you had to, for example, right? You're shy to walk barefoot if you

00:07:58 --> 00:08:01

needed to. You don't have to. It's not a sunnah to walk barefoot like

00:08:01 --> 00:08:05

that, just like that wear shoes. But for example, if you had to get

00:08:05 --> 00:08:08

some men do their knee and what are you going to do now? He says

00:08:08 --> 00:08:11

riding a donkey because in those days donkeys horses were better so

00:08:11 --> 00:08:13

you're shy to ride the donkey doing that you're shy to sit in a

00:08:13 --> 00:08:15

small car, you have to have a big car.

00:08:16 --> 00:08:19

They matter so God got him into the Mexico, but you gotta love it.

00:08:20 --> 00:08:25

You're too shy to lick your fingers after you eat or clean up

00:08:25 --> 00:08:29

the dish or finish off your tea. There's some people they feel that

00:08:29 --> 00:08:32

it's some kind of special etiquette to leave a bit of tea at

00:08:32 --> 00:08:34

the end in the cup.

00:08:35 --> 00:08:38

I don't know some people think it's high class people do that.

00:08:39 --> 00:08:43

Some people think that it's mega, which Jadoo Holgado

00:08:44 --> 00:08:48

omineca is fabulous and it's a waste man. Read Bismillah Hilah De

00:08:48 --> 00:08:52

Lisle Roma asked me che on Philadelphia's semi or semi

00:08:52 --> 00:08:56

regarding our will be Kadima Tila hit multiman Shadi mahalo RP la

00:08:56 --> 00:09:01

vie, and drink it. You're too shy to eat the food that falls off

00:09:01 --> 00:09:03

your plate. Maria

00:09:04 --> 00:09:09

does evening here. This is against our style. You're too shy to say

00:09:09 --> 00:09:09

salam

00:09:11 --> 00:09:11

Laude

00:09:13 --> 00:09:18

you're too shy to say salam or reply to the salam Radha too shy

00:09:18 --> 00:09:21

to lead the prayer and the like. This is very, very blameworthy.

00:09:22 --> 00:09:28

This is blameworthy. Since really what this is is was Dilly

00:09:28 --> 00:09:29

cowardice.

00:09:31 --> 00:09:35

Weakness in religion. Your your keen isn't strong enough.

00:09:36 --> 00:09:42

Or it's arrogance or ostentation, depending on which one it is, even

00:09:42 --> 00:09:47

if we agree that it was just me a shyness, then why you being shy.

00:09:47 --> 00:09:51

Why you being shy from people. So you don't want to do this in front

00:09:51 --> 00:09:55

of people on set of course Shrimati but not from Allah

00:09:55 --> 00:09:58

subhanho wa Taala you're not shy in front of Allah subhanaw taala

00:09:58 --> 00:09:59

for the same thing

00:10:00 --> 00:10:03

and you can't even say this is wrong or you can't even turn away

00:10:03 --> 00:10:07

and you can't even move away. But you're too shy of them and not shy

00:10:07 --> 00:10:08

have ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada.

00:10:10 --> 00:10:15

Allah and His Messenger have more rights for people to be shy of

00:10:15 --> 00:10:20

them. For indeed, what is the state of the one he says, who has

00:10:20 --> 00:10:24

no shame before his very creator? If you don't have any shyness,

00:10:24 --> 00:10:28

Allah case, I'm gonna shut up now. You know, what have you got? What

00:10:28 --> 00:10:29

is it?

00:10:31 --> 00:10:34

He is your Sustainer your guide your Savior.

00:10:36 --> 00:10:39

And if you're being shy by neglecting divine commands and

00:10:39 --> 00:10:41

prophetic signals, yet

00:10:43 --> 00:10:47

who feels ashamed in front of important creatures in other

00:10:47 --> 00:10:52

people, weak people, you feel shy in front of them just so that you

00:10:52 --> 00:10:56

can get their praise or pleasure or you can gain unlawful wealth

00:10:56 --> 00:10:59

from them or you can just be free of blame. You don't want them to

00:10:59 --> 00:11:02

criticize you or look down upon you or something like that.

00:11:04 --> 00:11:08

Yet, this person does not take care to flee from a severe

00:11:08 --> 00:11:12

punishment in the hereafter, nor from being excluded from the

00:11:12 --> 00:11:15

shofar at an intercession of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa

00:11:15 --> 00:11:18

sallam, we seek refuge in Allah from such a wretched state.

00:11:20 --> 00:11:23

Now we understand that there are two types of shyness, the natural

00:11:23 --> 00:11:27

shyness, you're not rewarded for that, unless you use it correctly.

00:11:27 --> 00:11:31

If it's going to stop us from doing what's right, then that's

00:11:31 --> 00:11:37

not praise worthy at all. The real praise worthy higher and shyness

00:11:37 --> 00:11:41

and modesty is further is what we do according to what Allah wants

00:11:41 --> 00:11:45

from us. May Allah subhanho wa Taala give us that Tofik May Allah

00:11:45 --> 00:11:47

00:14:36 --> 00:14:40

The point of a lecture is to encourage people to act to get

00:14:40 --> 00:14:45

further an inspiration and encouragement, persuasion. The

00:14:45 --> 00:14:49

next step is to actually start learning seriously to read books

00:14:49 --> 00:14:53

to take on a subject of Islam and to understand all the subjects of

00:14:53 --> 00:14:57

Islam at least at the basic level, so that we can become more aware

00:14:57 --> 00:15:00

of what our deen wants from us. And that's why we start

00:15:00 --> 00:15:04

added Rayyan courses so that you can actually take organize

00:15:04 --> 00:15:08

lectures on demand whenever you have free time, especially for

00:15:08 --> 00:15:12

example, the Islamic essentials course that we have on the Islamic

00:15:12 --> 00:15:17

essentials certificate which you take 20 Short modules and at the

00:15:17 --> 00:15:22

end of that inshallah you will have gotten the basics of most of

00:15:22 --> 00:15:25

the most important topics in Islam and you'll feel a lot more

00:15:25 --> 00:15:28

confident. You don't have to leave lectures behind you can continue

00:15:28 --> 00:15:31

to live, you know, to listen to lectures, but you need to have

00:15:31 --> 00:15:34
