AI: Summary ©
The importance of Islam and the success of pop stars in bringing people to their hearts and bringing attention to their fees is discussed. The music industry is largely focused on Junaid Jamshed, and the "hipping" and "Grely" aspects of the music industry are largely focused on. The importance of shattering the message of Islam and leaving it is emphasized, as a loss of Islam's son leads to a "roak of the world" and a "roak of the world" that is the one who dies in a strange accident.

Probably one of the most successful pop stars of the time.

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

However,

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

he dies at a young age now,

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

he could have continued to be a pop star, many pop stars continue,

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

they don't leave. You get intoxicated in that state, the

00:00:18 --> 00:00:22

culture that it brings you, the so called honor and the fame, that it

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

brings you the money that it brings you the access and the

00:00:26 --> 00:00:31

influence, that such a thing opens up for you. They're intoxicants,

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

they're very difficult to get out of.

00:00:33 --> 00:00:38

However, religion and the love of Allah is greater than all of these

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

things. And that is what will help a person to come away from this.

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

He passes away, praising the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam

00:00:49 --> 00:00:51

going out in his path.

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

And subhanAllah he's infused, he leaves his music.

00:00:57 --> 00:01:01

And Allah subhanaw taala gives him a replacement, that is able to use

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

this great voice of his and in history, we've had this so many

00:01:03 --> 00:01:08

times when some of the scholars would hear a singer that had a

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

very good voice because the voice is in itself a gift of Allah

00:01:12 --> 00:01:15

subhanho wa taala. Just like intellect is a gift of Allah

00:01:15 --> 00:01:16

subhanaw taala.

00:01:18 --> 00:01:21

Just like strength is the gift of Allah subhanaw taala now a person

00:01:21 --> 00:01:24

can take that and use it in the right way. Or he can use it in the

00:01:24 --> 00:01:28

wrong way. You think crooks are not intelligent, you think they're

00:01:28 --> 00:01:31

losers, very intelligent, but they've decided to use it in

00:01:31 --> 00:01:34

different way to hack people's accounts, steal credit card

00:01:34 --> 00:01:38

numbers. That's basically what they do. That same intellectual

00:01:38 --> 00:01:41

person could have done something else for the welfare of mankind

00:01:42 --> 00:01:44

could have designed so it could have been an Imperial College or

00:01:44 --> 00:01:47

Cambridge or somewhere and did something else. So the

00:01:47 --> 00:01:50

intelligence Allah gives to people and then it's up to you how you

00:01:50 --> 00:01:53

use these things. Everybody has a very unique personality

00:01:53 --> 00:01:56

characteristics. And Allah gives you various different faculties.

00:01:57 --> 00:02:00

So now, there's been many times in history where somebody had

00:02:00 --> 00:02:03

mentioned that What beautiful voice he has, if only he would

00:02:03 --> 00:02:07

have used it for the Quran. Only if you would have infused and

00:02:07 --> 00:02:10

beautify the hearts of people with something so enduring as the

00:02:10 --> 00:02:15

Quran, which really beautifies the mind and inspires the heart. So

00:02:15 --> 00:02:17

alhamdulillah that's what Allah subhanaw taala has given this

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

numerous other eulogies that have been provided for him that are

00:02:21 --> 00:02:25

much more in depth, I want to focus on something else, some of

00:02:25 --> 00:02:29

his works. For example, they'll Buddle there that one then there's

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

the other one about

00:02:31 --> 00:02:35

going to the the

00:02:36 --> 00:02:40

what you call that the militarism very very emotional very emotion

00:02:40 --> 00:02:44

anybody who's really thinks about those it helps them a lot. It

00:02:44 --> 00:02:50

helps them a lot it's his voice as mashallah infused the the thought

00:02:50 --> 00:02:54

of these great things made brought a lot of people closer to the dean

00:02:54 --> 00:02:55

and the religion.

00:02:56 --> 00:02:59

I met him a few times, but I didn't have too much of a personal

00:02:59 --> 00:03:02

relationship with them. I never had the opportunity to though my

00:03:02 --> 00:03:06

two brothers they have had because Monotribe when he was he's

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

actually

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

his the first album of Junaid Jamshed the first time I think the

00:03:12 --> 00:03:14

second and probably the third one as well. They're the ones who

00:03:14 --> 00:03:18

worked on it and and launched it. So he had very close contact with

00:03:18 --> 00:03:20

him. And then my other brother who's in America right now is

00:03:20 --> 00:03:24

alpha Law Center. He's invited him over there and he had a personal

00:03:24 --> 00:03:28

communication with Junaid Jamshed as well he tells us that he had

00:03:28 --> 00:03:33

great o'clock. Very humble person, if you spoke to him, he he's not

00:03:33 --> 00:03:37

arrogant with all the even after he left his music and came into

00:03:37 --> 00:03:42

Halal music as such, and became a not singer or a machine singer,

00:03:42 --> 00:03:45

whatever you want to call it, right? He

00:03:46 --> 00:03:50

people like this generally generally speaking, on the high

00:03:50 --> 00:03:54

horse, they don't have to speak to every time Abu Bakr and Zaid on

00:03:54 --> 00:03:57

the street, they can they can really be restricted to who they

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

speak to just being whizzing in and out. This is unfortunately,

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

what this thing brings about. However, he was very humble, he

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

would speak to whoever it is very humble. And my brother says that

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

sometimes he'd even say a few things that were a bit a bit

00:04:11 --> 00:04:14

strict and he would he would just listen He would just take it he

00:04:14 --> 00:04:16

had a lot of respect for Allah ma anyway to start with. But even

00:04:16 --> 00:04:20

with normal people, he was very, very respectful. This goes to show

00:04:20 --> 00:04:24

that you can be famous, but if you have a flock which is most

00:04:24 --> 00:04:30

important, then that is how you win the hearts of people. And that

00:04:30 --> 00:04:33

is what people will remember afterwards. People will remember

00:04:33 --> 00:04:37

your softness, your greatness and your personal interaction, not how

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

much knowledge you may have had all the time, not how much fame

00:04:41 --> 00:04:45

you enjoyed, not how much other how many other achievements you

00:04:45 --> 00:04:45

had in this world.

00:04:47 --> 00:04:52

Now if you look at his past to leave such a career, like Imam

00:04:52 --> 00:04:58

Ghazali leaves his position as one of the main teachers and directors

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

and highest

00:05:00 --> 00:05:04

position of teaching in the new Gambia college have, it's time to

00:05:04 --> 00:05:08

just give it all up when it was one of the most coveted positions.

00:05:09 --> 00:05:12

That's a big deal. Not everybody can do that. The only way you

00:05:12 --> 00:05:17

could do that is I believe, if you are feeling demoralized in your

00:05:17 --> 00:05:23

current situation. So while you're a pop star, while you're enjoying

00:05:23 --> 00:05:28

all of this fame, and influence and everything else, all the glitz

00:05:29 --> 00:05:34

that it brings you and the stardom and everything else, you must be

00:05:34 --> 00:05:38

feeling disquietude, an estrangement, a wash it in Arabic,

00:05:38 --> 00:05:41

you must be feeling that for you to leave it. If you're very

00:05:41 --> 00:05:44

comfortable in that position, why would you leave it? You only leave

00:05:44 --> 00:05:48

something when something pushes you away, when it doesn't fulfill

00:05:48 --> 00:05:52

you in such a way in some way or the other that's fulfilling

00:05:52 --> 00:05:56

basically, there must have been a loneliness. There must have been

00:05:56 --> 00:05:58

an imminent we believe this because it's all shaytaan it's all

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

darkness. There definitely was a loneliness and emptiness.

00:06:03 --> 00:06:04

Darkness in fact,

00:06:05 --> 00:06:09

and then he's he leaves that for you have to have something that

00:06:09 --> 00:06:12

can replace that. And for him, it was religion.

00:06:13 --> 00:06:19

That gave him that replacement, where he meant Allah subhanaw

00:06:19 --> 00:06:22

taala replaced everything that he was doing haram with halal.

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

What I find from here is that this should be a lesson for people who

00:06:28 --> 00:06:32

are doing things like this in the world, who are engaged in things

00:06:32 --> 00:06:38

that they wouldn't like to die doing, change that state and do

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

something different. What the Hadith mentions that I quoted

00:06:43 --> 00:06:46

earlier, which is related by Imam Muhammad even know humble that the

00:06:46 --> 00:06:48

Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that anybody who Allah

00:06:48 --> 00:06:50

subhanaw taala intends good with

00:06:51 --> 00:06:55

virtue four wants to give him some credit

00:06:57 --> 00:06:58

is that a mother who

00:06:59 --> 00:07:05

uses him employ similar service accepts him for some grandma

00:07:06 --> 00:07:10

makes him do something that gives him divine enablement. Star mother

00:07:10 --> 00:07:15

who or Isola who same thing sweetens the deal somehow for him.

00:07:15 --> 00:07:18

And so what does that mean? So the prophets Allah some replied, He

00:07:18 --> 00:07:24

said, He gives this person the divine enablement to do something

00:07:24 --> 00:07:26

by which people become happy and satisfied with them.

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

Alright, shatter the Allahu anha she saw a person who did something

00:07:33 --> 00:07:36

very great or had some good deeds. So she said

00:07:37 --> 00:07:42

that workone or MaryLu she, she read the verse This isn't recycled

00:07:42 --> 00:07:46

Buhari, she read the verse in the Quran. We're calling Emmylou fossa

00:07:46 --> 00:07:51

Allahu Allah Kumara, Sulu, who will not be known. We can not do

00:07:51 --> 00:07:55

desert care, we cannot purify anybody and say he is definitely

00:07:55 --> 00:07:59

like this or that. We say it based on dominant opinion, because the

00:07:59 --> 00:08:04

province of Assam has said that people are the witness for people

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

when they pass away to a certain degree. For example, Janessa went

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

past the process at wager but watch a bit.

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

And

00:08:15 --> 00:08:17

they said good things about him. He asked to be when they said Good

00:08:17 --> 00:08:21

thing he said whichever torture but which means that paradise is

00:08:21 --> 00:08:25

necessary for him or successes, salvation he's received, right?

00:08:26 --> 00:08:30

Another person ethna they didn't praise him, but they said bad

00:08:30 --> 00:08:34

things about him. And he said, well, but torture. But so then the

00:08:34 --> 00:08:38

whole point of that was that to some degree to some degree, the

00:08:38 --> 00:08:42

way we're seen by people is assign not for sure, not 100% Because

00:08:42 --> 00:08:46

people can then change. But generally speaking like that, we

00:08:46 --> 00:08:49

have this hadith, and Allah says in the Quran Wakulla Malou. And

00:08:49 --> 00:08:53

this is what I showed the quoted, continue to do your actions,

00:08:53 --> 00:08:55

continue in your deeds.

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

What Kalia Malou do deeds continue doing your deeds, Allah will look

00:09:01 --> 00:09:05

at them, of course, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam because our

00:09:05 --> 00:09:08

deeds are presented Professor lorrison and the believers will

00:09:08 --> 00:09:13

not be known. So that that is another way of saying that I'm not

00:09:13 --> 00:09:16

going to I don't have to make a judgment but you continue it's an

00:09:16 --> 00:09:19

encouragement to do the good deeds. So

00:09:21 --> 00:09:27

one of the most interesting things is that he is given who knew he

00:09:27 --> 00:09:31

was going to die at this age, there's only 50 or so who knew he

00:09:31 --> 00:09:33

was going to die at this age nobody expects to die they when

00:09:33 --> 00:09:36

you get to 6070 then people expect to die but 50 you don't and

00:09:36 --> 00:09:39

mashallah he's moving around going different places in the path of

00:09:39 --> 00:09:44

Allah subhanaw taala with his spouse, Mashallah. And on his on

00:09:44 --> 00:09:47

his way back, he passes away but before that he's given the ability

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

to do this wonderful deed to change because imagine if he had

00:09:51 --> 00:09:53

not changed and he had died, because he was still traveling

00:09:53 --> 00:09:58

around in those days as well. That is the most that is the greatest

00:09:58 --> 00:10:00

thing that

00:10:00 --> 00:10:04

He dies at a young age not expecting today. And Masha Allah,

00:10:04 --> 00:10:06

Allah subhanaw taala has given so this hadith is what came to my

00:10:06 --> 00:10:11

mind when this happened, that Allah gave him the ability before

00:10:11 --> 00:10:16

his death, to make this change, build up a big bank account, in a

00:10:16 --> 00:10:19

sense, build up a big balance of all his good deeds. Imagine how

00:10:19 --> 00:10:22

many people he has infused, you know, with the love of the Prophet

00:10:22 --> 00:10:25

sallallahu alayhi wasallam Love of Allah bring him back to the deen.

00:10:25 --> 00:10:27

And it was not just the performer, he would go out in public, you

00:10:27 --> 00:10:31

know, free, you know, not not just performing everywhere, but giving

00:10:31 --> 00:10:35

bringing in people to the faith and to be close to the faith. And

00:10:35 --> 00:10:39

now, it's happened with numerous people that before they die

00:10:39 --> 00:10:44

somehow they say certain things that are very relevant to the fact

00:10:44 --> 00:10:47

that they're going to die and maybe they don't even realize it.

00:10:48 --> 00:10:52

And thus, I'm sure many of you have heard of Mufti Taqi with

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

minor Hymel.

00:10:54 --> 00:10:57

Damnit baraka to him. He also mentioned this as well, that in

00:10:57 --> 00:11:02

one of his final one of the speeches, I think it's online as

00:11:02 --> 00:11:06

well, that he gave, he actually said, Let's make a DUA, and the

00:11:06 --> 00:11:09

die is that oh, well, one of the first was he made it so Allah give

00:11:09 --> 00:11:13

us death in your path. Little did he know that the next day that is

00:11:13 --> 00:11:17

exactly what's going to happen. Very relevant. You think he knew?

00:11:18 --> 00:11:22

Right? It's almost like he knew and this kind of incident has

00:11:22 --> 00:11:23

happened with numerous people like that.

00:11:25 --> 00:11:29

And the other thing is, that in the Joomla, before that, that he

00:11:29 --> 00:11:33

led he read these verses la taxable Nila Lena Cuttino visa vie

00:11:33 --> 00:11:34

de la Huerta

00:11:35 --> 00:11:39

do not fall for even an instance never, ever considered that those

00:11:39 --> 00:11:44

people who died in the path of Allah subhanaw taala are dead, but

00:11:44 --> 00:11:47

they are very much alive and they are being sustained by their Lord.

00:11:49 --> 00:11:55

And we already know that anybody who dies in an accident, who dies

00:11:55 --> 00:11:59

by drowning, who dies by being crushed, who dies in a fire.

00:11:59 --> 00:12:01

There's approximately 70 categories mentioned in the

00:12:01 --> 00:12:06

Hadith, about the shahidul akhira. They may not be shade of the

00:12:06 --> 00:12:09

world, because shade of the world is the one who dies fighting in

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

the path of Allah. But the one who dies in one of these freak

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

accident strange accidents or whatever they are also even a

00:12:15 --> 00:12:19

woman dies in pregnancy. Shaheed as well. But here you've got

00:12:19 --> 00:12:23

somebody who dies in one of these strange accidents. And he is in

00:12:23 --> 00:12:24

the path of Allah subhanaw taala.

00:12:26 --> 00:12:31

So, that is an addition to the fact that he's a shade is all in

00:12:31 --> 00:12:34

the also he's a shade of the Astra but also in the path of Allah

00:12:34 --> 00:12:34

subhanaw taala.

00:12:36 --> 00:12:38

The way I look at this is that this is a wake up call for all of

00:12:38 --> 00:12:42

us because any of us could die. Dying in a plane crash, they say

00:12:42 --> 00:12:46

dying in planes is more seldom than dying in a car accident.

00:12:46 --> 00:12:50

Strange as it sounds, you're they're suspended in the air

00:12:50 --> 00:12:53

flying through the air. But planes are supposed to be by statistics,

00:12:53 --> 00:12:56

through statistic planes are supposed to be safer than, than

00:12:56 --> 00:12:59

than cars. There are way more accidents that you could die in in

00:12:59 --> 00:13:02

a car accident or be bruised or something then in the plane. Very

00:13:02 --> 00:13:08

seldom I know it's Pakistan here, right? But Allah, right, but that

00:13:08 --> 00:13:12

that is the statistic, it's a wake up call for a lot of us and

00:13:12 --> 00:13:17

especially people out there who are who are like him who start who

00:13:17 --> 00:13:20

are still in the business, or in a similar business, that they

00:13:20 --> 00:13:24

wouldn't be very happy to stand in front of Allah subhanaw taala with

00:13:25 --> 00:13:26

those kinds of people,

00:13:28 --> 00:13:33

that they should also try to think of this and change and use this as

00:13:33 --> 00:13:37

a role model. Because he managed to benefit so many people just

00:13:37 --> 00:13:40

before he died in the province that Allah, Allah used him. And we

00:13:40 --> 00:13:44

can only say that this is what we think. And another thing is that

00:13:44 --> 00:13:51

why him so many other people, but why him? And as other speakers

00:13:51 --> 00:13:54

have also mentioned some of the reasons of why he came out and

00:13:54 --> 00:13:57

some of the specific points he had that were very different to other

00:13:57 --> 00:14:01

people in his field. Right? I just want to relate to something that

00:14:02 --> 00:14:04

if you look at all of the arch enemies of the Prophet sallallahu

00:14:04 --> 00:14:07

alayhi wasallam in the early Makkah period.

00:14:10 --> 00:14:13

And I've not done any exhaustive study on this, but there's only

00:14:13 --> 00:14:17

one person that comes to mind that actually became a Muslim

00:14:17 --> 00:14:22

afterwards. And you know who that is? Abu Sufian Can you think of

00:14:22 --> 00:14:23

anybody else?

00:14:24 --> 00:14:30

Abu Jamal, Abu Lahab, this Omiya and all of these they died in

00:14:30 --> 00:14:34

cofre, but abou Soufiane are the Allah one.

00:14:35 --> 00:14:38

He eventually gets Islam.

00:14:39 --> 00:14:44

And what's very interesting is that if you look at his biography,

00:14:44 --> 00:14:45

and if you read more about him

00:14:46 --> 00:14:50

there's a very interesting story related about Tim, that I believe

00:14:50 --> 00:14:54

it was when hubba beadnell Rot where the hola Juan was being

00:14:55 --> 00:14:59

killed by the enemies at that time, a booster

00:15:00 --> 00:15:03

found was there with more IVR or the hola Juan as a young child at

00:15:03 --> 00:15:06

that time, infant baby toddler. And

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

when hubbub are the hola Juan mentioned his poem and whenever

00:15:13 --> 00:15:16

what his final words, which was like a DUA,

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

Abu Sufian grabbed more out of the Hola, Juan, right? And he's a non

00:15:22 --> 00:15:26

Muslim at the time, and he just dived to the ground. It's almost

00:15:26 --> 00:15:28

like you know, when a bomb explodes, a grenade explodes,

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

you're supposed to dive to the ground, because generally when the

00:15:31 --> 00:15:35

explosion takes place, it takes place like that. Right? So if

00:15:35 --> 00:15:38

you're as close to the ground, you will be safe from the shrapnel or

00:15:38 --> 00:15:44

whatever. They used to believe that when a curse came about a bad

00:15:44 --> 00:15:47

da, then if you hit the ground, you will be safe.

00:15:48 --> 00:15:52

ajeeb and that's what he did. But look later he becomes a Muslim

00:15:53 --> 00:15:54

hint who

00:15:55 --> 00:16:00

choose chewed on the heart of Hamza, the liver and etc, of

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

Hamza, the Allahu, and she becomes a Muslim.

00:16:04 --> 00:16:09

Subhanallah right. So there has to be something, some good deeds that

00:16:09 --> 00:16:12

Allah subhanaw taala That's why they say the question that arises,

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

Amara, the Allahu on when he that day when he was an enemy of the

00:16:16 --> 00:16:18

Prophet sallallahu Sallam he set out to kill the Prophet sallahu

00:16:18 --> 00:16:22

Sonam what was he in the law? What was he considered to be by Allah

00:16:22 --> 00:16:26

subhanaw taala say that he was a believer and beloved to Allah

00:16:26 --> 00:16:28

subhanaw taala even on that day, because Allah knew what was gonna

00:16:28 --> 00:16:32

happen in the future. So there are people who Allah who will give the

00:16:32 --> 00:16:38

Tofik to they have a mashallah good ending, right which matters

00:16:38 --> 00:16:42

the most, which is the significant factor here in the mala Mala will

00:16:42 --> 00:16:45

have a team so regardless how they spent their life they've got some

00:16:45 --> 00:16:48

goodness in them that goodness will grow inshallah and one day

00:16:48 --> 00:16:52

will happen. So this the lesson teaches us that whatever you may

00:16:52 --> 00:16:52

be doing today,

00:16:54 --> 00:17:00

always, always keep a window open to Allah subhanaw taala and try to

00:17:00 --> 00:17:03

focus on the bit of good even if you think it's difficult for you

00:17:03 --> 00:17:07

to do all good, but at least try to do some good and Inshallah, one

00:17:07 --> 00:17:11

day Allah will bring out the fruits of this and you will reap

00:17:11 --> 00:17:14

the crops of this. May Allah subhanaw taala give us the Tofik

00:17:14 --> 00:17:15

May Allah subhanaw taala

00:17:17 --> 00:17:20

bless him and his family to the highest in the highest levels of

00:17:20 --> 00:17:25

Jannah make the rest of the stages of the Hereafter easy for them and

00:17:25 --> 00:17:27

those who have left behind their children etc. May Allah subhanaw

00:17:27 --> 00:17:30

taala grant them the ability in the Tofik to further the work that

00:17:30 --> 00:17:34

he had started following Suzanne make this an inspiration for a lot

00:17:34 --> 00:17:38

of the other people who used to hold him as a role model, and even

00:17:38 --> 00:17:42

those who didn't, but could follow his path and make him an

00:17:42 --> 00:17:45

inspiration after the dot $100 Bill Atomy
