Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al Hamdulillah
Al Hamdulillah Rabina Alameen wa Salatu was Salam ala Arlen Murthy
Ramadan in line I mean our other early he was on behalf of Arakawa
seldom at the Sleeman Kathira on Isla Yomi Dean unburied.
We move on to the portion where he takes the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam by name.
And thus in poem number 34. And then number 35 He says, Mohammed
don't say you do not go Nene with taka Lane Well, Felipe name in our
oral been women. ijzerman. Nabil unil army runner he felt I had
done about Rafi Cody law I mean, who was an Army. Mohamed is the
master of both worlds, both kinds, and both companions. Muhammad is
the master of both worlds both kinds and both companies Arabs and
non Arabs, or both groups Arabs and Arabs. Our Prophet two
commands and forbids there is none more faithful to His word whether
yes or no.
So firstly, he starts after describing the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wasallam with some of the extraordinary things about him.
Now he starts to describe the Rosa Lawson by name. So this is the
first time he takes his name in this entire poem. So he says
Muhammad.
Now the word Muhammad the Prophet sallallahu Sallam has the name as
well. Mohammed is the name that aptly describes who he is. It's a
perfect description who Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam is, and it's the
most famous name, the majority of us use the name Muhammad, the
majority of the world over the centuries have used the name
Muhammad. In fact, it's also the name that you can take the most
pleasure in, in using and stating Mohammed is just just slides off
your tongue. It's just such a beautiful name SubhanAllah. So
it's what I love to do her Seema, and it's the most beautiful name
to even listen to.
And
it's also the one that when you say Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, it's easy to send blessings on him afterwards.
So where does this name come from? It's IRA. It's an Arabic word.
Obviously, it's an Arabic word. For those who understand Arabic
grammar, especially soften morphology, the low that this is a
muffle rule from hammer that you have made with dammit, it's more,
it's more fat. And it's a it's it's more intense than saying
Mahmoud.
Because Mohammed means the extremely and more most frequently
praised one.
And Mahmoud means the praised one. Muhammad is just the praised one.
And Muhammad is the one who is praised over and over again, in
different ways, and in different places. So it shows like a variety
within the praise.
So that's Arabic for you. They add an extra word to EMS Mohamed
instead of mood, and it becomes even more. The reason for it is
that because he's praised over and over again,
not just once. His praise hasn't died out. It's continuing and
enduring.
So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam has been praised on the
tongues of the entire universe in different ways.
Both his name has been praised his characteristics have been praised.
His character has been praised his also his features and his
his profile as in the Shamal his acts, his states, and his
knowledge, his commands, his his Sharia, his sunnah, all of these
things have been praised. For who Mr. Moody and Phil are the warmer
Moon this summer. He is the praise one in the earth and he's also the
praised one in the heavens. In fact, one of the scholars said is
that one of the wisdoms behind the Prophet sallallahu and being taken
up into the heavens, in the ascension in the Miraj. One was
his personal benefits. But the other benefit was that just as he
spreading his light in the earth, he could also benefit the
inhabitants of the heavens with his light. So that was another
benefit that he was taken up to the heavens for.
So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa Salam is the praise one in the
world and in the in the hereafter as well. You'll feel it even more
you'll you'll see it clearly. Because in this world, there's
many barriers in between. There's many veils that comes from this
transmission, you don't we haven't heard from Rasulullah sallallahu
directly. We hear, we hear about him through books, through
transmission through isnaad through chains, but in the
hereafter he'll be their manifest. And in fact,
there's another poem which is coming up
And what Imam Ghazali is supposed to have mentioned is that, you
know, on the Day of Judgment, people are going to go to
Rasulullah. They're going to go to the prophets, one after the other,
to try to get them to intercede the famous Hadith as related by
Imam Bukhari and Muslim I believe, the famous Hadith where it's going
to be such a bad situation on that day on the day of hisab, that the
haisa will not begin to just be very hot because some will be very
close. So there'll be a group of people who will finally decide
that you know what, let's go and ask somebody to intercede on our
behalf to Allah subhanaw taala to start the accounting, the
reckoning, so it will go to the different prophets. Imam Ghazali
says here that none of them will be from this ummah, they already
know that the prophets Allah ism is going to be the one that they
won't have to go around to everybody else Allah knows best.
This is just his thought because we know that the prophets the
lesson is going to do is so there is no need for them to go to other
malleson on first and then to New headaches and I'm gonna Mousavi
Simon isa de Salam, they know the province of Los Angeles. So this
will be people from other owners that will do that.
We just don't know how,
how blessed we are of being in this ummah, we just don't know it,
believe me, we just take it for granted.
So in this world, he is benefiting us through his ailment, his hikma,
which he was taught, sent here to sent here to teach us the wisdom
of how to live in this world, his character, and everything that we
hear from how to deal with people That's wisdom is a you've got
knowledge. So knowledge is raw data. Right? It's its Maluma its
information, to deliver that knowledge to articulate it. You
need tons of wisdom of how to deal with that. The reason I mentioned
this is because I'm reflecting on my own self from when I first
graduated came out, and the way I would approach things and the way
I approach things now after having experienced many things. And then
when I see somebody who's just, you know, newly graduated or newly
has learned something has taken a course here they are the other,
and they've got some knowledge and now they want to take that
knowledge and you know, give it to people, but the way they're doing
it, you need some wisdom and experience of how to take that
knowledge and how to process it and articulate it and deliver it.
So delivery is extremely important. Delivery is extremely
important. Lots of knowledge is good, but if you have lots of
hikma with it, then that will be extremely successful. Because
there's a way of delivery of the knowledge.
And that's the War of the media. This is why they do it so well.
They get to your hearts. They tell you you don't have to process it
your you don't have to even use your brain you just have to sit
there and watch, we will tell everything to you will get to the
middle of your cortex of your brain. So you don't even have to
think will tell you what to think.
That's why it's so powerful.
Now despite him being Mohamed which means the one who is praised
by everything and everyone, he is also the hermit which means the
one who praises others, meaning Allah subhanaw taala he is the one
who praises Allah.
The other thing is you have to realize that anybody today who
praises Allah subhanahu wa taala in the correct way with the
correct belief.
They owe all of that to Rasulullah sallallahu sallam, all of that
comes back to us. So He is the one who's told us how to praise Allah
subhanho wa Taala
doesn't matter that then make him the one who has praised the most.
Because if he's the source of all proper praise of Allah,
there's lots of people who praise God. But then they don't. They
don't have the correct idea and attitude and the correct Eman to
go with it the correct faith to go with it. So those with the correct
faith who praise Allah in the correct way through their tongues
and their worship. They've learned it from Rasulullah. That makes him
the greatest Praiser
because he's taught it to others and everybody's followed suit.
Because what will you learn from him is effective. And when
somebody is effective, then he gets a following. So that's why he
is the greatest hermits.
So he is the hermit I call it luck. He is the hermit. That's it.
Some say that when it comes to the heavens, that's where his name is.
Ahmed, more commonly known as Ahmed is called the Akhmad. And in
the earth, he's called Mohammed. So the Prophet salallahu Alaihe
Salam is the best who's the best of those who've ever been praised
aside from ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada and he's also the best who has
praised and who knows how to praise Allah subhanaw taala and
that is why there are so many you know, when you
go to a particular show or a shop or a particular company or
something then they provide all of the souvenirs.
Right everything from bookmarks to pens to personalize with their
information.
Look at personalization of Rasulullah sallallahu. So with the
with the slogan of Hamlet,
Hamlet is written all over the province of Lhasa and everything
he did. His name is Mohammed His name is Ahmed. Then he says will
be a deliverer will Hamdi yomo pm I'm going to have the flag of
praise.
So he's given such a big souvenir, the flag of praise on the day of
judgment, and beneath that praise beneath that flag of praise will
be everybody including other Malays
and then he's given McConville Mahmoud's. That's the DUA we make
for him. sal Allahu Allah is the praiseworthy station Maqam Al
Mahmoud, the praised station, praised position, he'll have the
box, the special place.
So in this world, only those who recognize him and understand him
praise him.
When it comes to the hereafter, everybody will have to praise him
to get anywhere.
The recognize that there won't be any doubt left. That's why when
the people in the time of Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam used
to make funny names up for him and used to call him with them. He
used to he used to kind of laugh it off and say, and these guys,
they don't know what they're doing. They who are they
criticizing? They're criticizing a guy called them who is Muslim, I'm
Muhammad.
He was like, so definite. See, because none of us are different
about what's going to happen with us, we hope for the good, but none
of us are definite. But he was just so satisfied. So confident,
he said they are criticizing. Some of them I'm going with a means the
criticized one the opposite of Muhammad, but I'm the Muhammad
one, I know where I'm going, you know, like when you know, you're
gonna get something at the end of it, then taking slack from people
doesn't make a difference. It's easy then because you know, this
is just small time stuff.
So for the profits and losses, that's how it was all of this was
so easy, but for us, it becomes so difficult to live in this world
and the criticism because we live for this world unfortunately, when
you live for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala none of this
criticism really then eventually matters. So he says Mohammed
seydel co Nene with Sakhalin, Mohammed is the leader of the
codename gon means, the whatever is out there the cosmic reality.
Gon existence gold means existence Garner means it happened, it was
gone Allah Allah was and there was nothing else aside from so called
means anything in existence. So he's saying Mohammed is the leader
of the two existences, the two worlds, so he's using this world
and then the hereafter. So this world, then when this world
finishes, then it will be the hereafter. So Muhammad sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam
is
the leader of the dunya and akhira. Then he says, What's the
claim? And then the tooth, Sakhalin circle comes from fickle.
fickle means heaviness.
So those two creatures that burden the dunya
which is the jinn and the ins, the humans and the jinn. So the
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam is also the leader of the insaan
and the jinn.
And then he says, well, very keen for these means two parties, two
groups, and he's also the leader of the two parties are the two
groups mean Erbin worming ihme.
The Arabs and the non Arabs, can you see how is put the Arabs in
one group and all the non Arabs in the other group? Kind of
interesting, isn't it? So you've got Arabs in one group, even
though they're a minority, then you've got the Chinese the
Orientals, the Indians are Africans and everybody in the
other group. Kind of interesting that is,
but you know what, it doesn't matter. Because if you learn how
to speak Arabic, you become an Arab.
So don't don't feel that just because I'm born an Indian or an
African or whatever. I can't you know, I mean, the other group, it
doesn't matter. Taqwa is what's gonna count.
Taqwa is what's going to count. And the other interesting is that
some of the greatest of our other MA and saleha greatest of the
pious people of the past, and the amount of the past we're not
Arabs. We take some of the biggest names that you have, they were not
Arabs. They were not Arabs Yanni by birth. They were then Arabs
obviously by speech. No doubt. Imam Buhari was Uzbek
in those Pakistan in those days, but it's in Uzbekistan today
Bahara Imam tell me the is also Uzbek Turkic background.
In my Muslim was Persian Nisha poor, which is north east of Iran.
You might maybe no matter was northwest of Iran again Persian
and who's left the mama Buddha with his he is south east of
Iran CG Stan see Stan? Again another Persian
right who you got left?
him I'm gonna say he is actually in Turkmenistan today south of
Turkmenistan and Iran. Please call NASA. Again another Persian Turkic
whatever the origin these are the six major Hadith scholars. It look
at look at anybody else give me some names Imam Ghazali you're
wrong because only another person
I believe has Somerton be I mean? This is all from that side moolah
ideal curry he's from he's from here out in Afghanistan.
Sorry. There are some Iraqis there are some Iraqi like just Saska
stuff. Who?
Xena Dena heirarchy. Yes, there are then there's you got the
Egyptians, you've got many others, but the some of the famous ones,
you know.
In fact, some of the greatest of the Solahart they came from Hora
son from bulk and all these places.
It's quite interesting.
Obviously, this is not to say that there's nothing from the Arabs of
course there were. But I'm just trying to say that there was a
major name so it doesn't matter.
So, but he's just trying to make a point here that it doesn't matter
where you're from Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam is your prophet.
He is your leader, wherever you're from, whether you're gin or ins.
So if there's any gin listening, then that's the case as well.
The other thing is that you know, to tie in the fact that you know,
we read that some narrations would say that this world was created
for the Prophet sallallahu sallam. So that makes him the leader
anyway. So from that perspective, it makes sense anyway, then,
the other thing is this. He's the leader of the world.
Because He guides us he tells us the best way to work in this
world.
The other so we gain Naseeha counsel, guidance, direction, and
light to travel within this world. We gained through him our entire
deen is from him.
And the this this light is to Allah subhanho wa Taala and is to
Jana, and we gained up from Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi
wasallam. How do the kuffaar fits into this then how do the non
Muslims fit into this world and not taken the light completely
in a way that will give them salvation? Well, look at this.
This is the only Ummah who could do suffer and get away with it.
And they would not be destroyed from their roots. The previous
owners were not like that when they went into a level of gopher
and shake, they were destroyed. But because Rasulullah sallallahu
Assam is from this ummah, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam has been promised that this ummah will not be destroyed from
its roots.
Or gebe. That is how much he is a leader. That is how much he is
loved by Allah subhanaw taala
because
Allah subhanaw taala says in the Quran, wama Asana que la rahmatan
Neil Alameen we have sent you as a source of mercy for all the words
not just for the muslimeen not just for the meaning, but for all
the words everything, whether they believe or not, is a some sense of
mercy for everything. So that's why the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wa salam when he was given the option of bringing the two
mountains together and killing everybody in between, in that
valley of thought if and he said, No, the Prophet sallallahu sallam
said no, because he said Urdu and Yahuwah Allah you reach Allah
hoomin Isla Bohemia Abdullah, where you are, hey do my in my
hope and desire is that Allah subhanho wa Taala will bring from
their loins those that will be expressing the towhid of Allah
subhanho wa Taala and is oneness and that is exactly what happened.
So ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada says in the Quran, WOMMA Quran Allah Who
knew at Zebra home one defeat him that Allah subhanho wa Taala is
not going to punish them while you are among them.
Allah gives him that guarantee in the Quran that Allah is not going
to punish them. When you read them, it gives them that time. So
he is a source of mercy that at least he gives them a chance
otherwise they would be they would be finished. He gave him a chance
and some of them became a Muslim, became Muslimeen. Then
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam, now we understand the
world. What about the heavens? How do the angels come into this?
Well, we know that Allah subhanahu wa taala told even the angels to
send blessings on him. Why would the angels and blessings on him in
Allahu wa Mala Erica, who you saw Lunarlon Debbie,
and to assist him, they were ready to be there in any battle. In any
confrontation. They were ready to be there.
And then of course,
he, he met with them on his ascension as well.
And what I mentioned earlier that according to some of the older ma
one of the benefits of his going up to the heavens was so that they
could also benefit from his from his presence when he went up into
the ascension and Allah knows best.
When it comes to the jinn, then the Prophet sallallahu sallam was
known I mean surgeon in the Quran mentioned that there's a number of
Hadith as well the prophets Allah took numerous route at the Allahu
Anhu. With him he had a meeting with the jinn.
And then he told Abdullah Massoud, he made a circle and says, Look,
you can't come out of here, you stay here. If you see anything
weird as well just stay in here you'll be okay.
Right? Because then the process went ahead to meet with the gym.
So we know about that. Now exactly the detail of when he used to
speak to them and so on. We don't know all the details. We just know
some of the details.
We also know that there was a place called Nasi bean and the
Djinn of that area. They heard the Quran being recited and they had
been sent they had actually been sent you know, when the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was given prophets, but then after
that people, the jinn were not allowed to then listen to what was
going on. They weren't allowed to eavesdrop to what was going on
with the angels in the first heaven. So they would be they
would be shot with shooting stars. So
they wondered what happened something major must have happened
in the earth for this to have been now province prevented and
blocked. So they sent out Jama art, right? I don't know for how
long they sent him out three days or four months, but they sent him
out. Right, that go and find out what's going on. So there was this
one group of Nasi been the jinn have not seen they came to an area
and the Prophet sallallahu sallam was on some journey, and he had
just stopped there to recite Fajr Salaat.
And they listened to this and this must be, this must be yours.
So
when the prophets of Allah Islam recited to the gin one surah to
Rahman,
Whenever the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would say Febi a
year, your ABI Kuma to cut the ban, which of the bounties of your
Lord Do you deny? They would respond, lobby shaman Allah, you
can look at the Robina there is none of this that we can deny none
of these bounties can we deny? So when the profits and losses then
recited the surah to the Sahaba, and they did not give this
response, he says, you know, look at you, the jinn at least
responded and they said, no, no, we don't deny any of these. And
you guys don't give me a response.
So anyway, when this group then went out, they told everybody what
was going on. So now within the gin, you've got, you know, they
said yeah, coalminer, Inasa Marina, Geeta been our people,
we've heard the book being recited. So they went out, and all
sorts of them mentioned this Quran and Jabba. Yeah, de la Rushdie.
And Obi Wan initially can be Rabina, Haida, and so on and so
forth.
In fact, I mean, we know of gin stories. Gin story is a very
interesting, right. You know, the stories of the gin half of them
are made up but, you know, there's lots of interesting gin stories
and the reality is related from Sheikh Abu Abdullah Al Al euery.
From his Sheikh whose name was Abu Saeed. He says that some of the
sell of silence some of their own amount of the sale of Saudi, they
used to sit there teaching their thought of their students. They
would be a Quran teacher, and listen, listening to their
students. And some of the Min Min Min Jin Jin there are believers.
There's a Hindu Jin, there's Christian gins, there's all of
these things, probably Shia, Sunni.
You get all of this apparently.
There was a book that I got once, which was Al haywire, banal,
genial Muslim.
I forget the other part of his basically it was this interview
that this one guy had with Ming Jin and he asked him how this
started to happen. It was banned in Syria. I got it from I think,
Jordan, at that time, but he gave him some indication of how things
happen, how things work in this world, you know, where you got
certain people who perform these tricks, which don't appear to be
camera tricks. They genuinely you know, these things are happening.
They say generally, it's a gym that's taken a favor and knows,
you know, giving a favor and then it's going to, you know, gain a
favor from him afterwards. Generally weird stuff. These are
bad gyms, generally speaking. It's kind of a strange world. So
anyway, what's related is
there was this particular che, in the early days, he used to listen
to Quran and
They were gins that used to come and read to him as well.
One day, one of his students, gin students came to him, made Salam.
And as though he's seeing, he's gonna leave, he says, I'm having
to leave because
today, we've all decided that we're going to go for kita we're
going to go for jihad, we're going to go for fighting.
And because there's this group of people we need to deal with. So
I'm going to have to go as well. So I'm going to be away.
We're going to go and fight with the co founder of the gym. Right?
And I'm hoping for great reward in this and so on. If Allah subhanaw
taala has decreed that we returned safely with victory.
Then Inshallah, I'll come back to class. I'll come back to class,
and I'll be sitting with you again. But if Allah subhanaw taala
gives me shahada, if he's decreed shahada, then the way you will
find out is that when you're teaching,
there's a wood up there, a pointed up so there's a wood piece of wood
up there that was part of the roof or something that will drop in
front of you. So maybe he's gonna send somebody to do that, or
whatever the case was. So if you see that, then just make dua for
me.
So he left. And after some time, the shaky came to his mind, you
remember, Hey, man, you know, where's he gone? As he, well, how
must he be? And then very shortly afterwards, he noticed that the
wood had dropped in front of him. So then he told everybody and it
made them do to offer do offer for him for that particular gym.
And it's also recognized that, you know, he's saying that you've got
lots of people who sometimes good gin will possess.
That also happens is not just all his evil agenda possess people. So
I had a when I was in studying in South Africa, I had an Imam, the
Imam of Al Masjid. He was living alone without his wife for about
10 years. And apparently the jinn took a liking for him a good Jimmy
would. And how did anybody find out is two incidents took place?
Number one, we used to have another common friend, one of the
older men of the area's name was a smiley face passed away now may
Allah have mercy on him. So one day, there was a lot of guests
that smile by head, and he had the keys to this Imam subs house. So
he was sleeping in a mom's house that day,
in his bed, so in the middle of the night, he gets a, you know,
he's alone, he gets like a wake up call. Right? Like, wake up,
whatever, go go to sleep digest time.
And then he didn't wake up. He didn't get up, he just kind of
rolled over and went back to sleep.
So then the whole cover gets pulled away.
And the whole cover gets pulled away. So now this is him telling
me the story firsthand. Right, he's got no reason to make it up.
So the cover gets pulled away. So he then wakes up. And then he
realized that the curry sub Imams have told him about some stories
because he immediately connected that okay, this must be his gin
bringing, you know, make waking me up or whatever the case is. So he
said, Look, you know, I need to go to see please leave me alone.
Salaam Alaikum.
So then it was fine.
The Maulana says the Imam he told me himself. He says that once he
was in Attica
in the masjid, and it was probably five days left for Eid in a tick
off time. And he told somebody is smile way.
And I know this other is smile, right? This is another smile. I
used to work with radio, radio, Islam as well. He says I need some
shoes. He says that night, you smile by comes along. And he's got
three pairs of shoes with him is which one do you want? I said,
Wow, that was really fast. Right? So I picked the shoes. And then
after that he went took the other two the next day when he smelled
like him again. Because this has happened in the middle of the
night.
Middle of the night and ethic of the next day when his mind by came
he felt that he needed to thank him properly. Because last night
was kind of all done in a hurry. It was dark and everything. It's
not about you know the shoes is really nice. Which shoes you're
talking about. So immediately is can recognize Okay, so I told him
you know, he probably went down to that Baba tutor and stole three
pairs of shoes for us from somewhere. You need to give him
back. Where did you bring them from?
Right. These are all firsthand stories that I'm I mean, there's a
lot of other stories that you hear. But these are firsthand
stories I'm talking about.
Now, this morning, I used to work in South Africa and used to go
back to India from my wallet. So whenever he would go back every
year, he would take whatever savings to give to his family,
etc. So now the people in that village they knew that when he
came back, he always brought back lots of money.
Because you know he's coming from outside for whatever. So on one
occasion, there's a break in in his house
and at night
So, you know what, when when they figured out that something's
happened,
they went outside the house. And there's two guys there and they
are like stuck, they can't go anywhere. This is like a wall, we
can't go past this, we're just like stuck. They were the thieves
that stolen the money. And now they couldn't get further to the
gym or whatever it was holding them. But eventually, you know,
he, he didn't want this to happen, because kind of this weird feeling
that somebody's with you all the time. You understand? So I think
finally what he said, he said, he doesn't, he doesn't have it
anymore. He says, I really be requested them Look, just leave. I
don't, I don't need your whatever and you know, your services, or
whatever it is. And I think after that they disappeared, or
as far as I can remember.
You don't want to mess with Jim, whether they're good or bad. Gin,
they made a fire. gins have a fiery imagination, they Wilds so
they could be completely fine with you. But tomorrow, they could mess
up. You could be me, you could miss your Fajr tomorrow, and they
will get angry on you and kill you.
Right. So it could work out good. It could work out bad. They're
just not they're just not predictable. It's not Allah hasn't
made it that we deal with them. Do you understand that? They live
their life we do our life. So you're not supposed to be doing
this. There's been many cases where you've got a gym that's
fallen for a human woman wants to marry her possessor, and so on and
so forth. There's lots of the stories as you hear from them. Not
every gene story out there is a gene story. A lot of it is
schizophrenia, depression, some chemical imbalance in the mind. A
lot of that is that, but there are some serious genuine stories. So
now what happens in this case is there's another story here.
The shaker Abu Saeed, he says that he used to have this old woman
that used to come and look after his children, like a nanny. Give
them tarbiyah teach them a few basic things here and there. The
other one thing is she had very bad recitation, she used to read
really badly.
Like the other way this sister called me up and she's worried.
She asked the issue and I said, look, it's fine says no, but I
don't want my father to get a job. I said, what? I don't want to get
a job and I don't want my father to get a job. I said, don't worry
about it, you will not get any job
basically is worried about other job.
They call it a job.
A job Aug means to give a response.
Right? So some people just can't read the Quran properly. They
haven't been taught that as read.
He tried with a poor guy, he tried to help her out by teaching a
surah to Fatiha so after such a long time, because at least if she
knows how to recite Surah, the father could holla when she can
pray a solid property. So he says I spent such a long time trying to
do that, but just very difficult.
One day though, I'd come back from a journey. And she was there she
made salaam to me, I sat down talking to her. After a while I
did something else. And I looked at her and I could see that some
face had undergone some kind of change. She didn't look normal
anymore. She looked different. And then she started speaking strange,
weird things.
I thought that you know, I said, let me read something to you. Let
me read some Quran on you. Because the Quran borrowed with the baraka
it should come down that maybe be this Baraka, you'll the your
situation will lighten. So I sat in front of her. And I said to her
that let me read. So she turned around, she said, with this really
ugly voice. Right? So Moncure really ugly voice. She said
the Conan Takara mini Narikala cool.
You think you can read better than me? No way.
I mean, trying to teach a Fatiha this time, and she couldn't read
it properly. And now she's telling me you think you can read better
than me? There's never that's not gonna happen. So I said to her,
when did you suddenly become a reader? When did you suddenly
become a carrier? Right. So he says that I've been trying to make
you read Fatiha. And you haven't been able to do that. He says she
says, and this is not her voice. This is some other gruff voice,
she said are usually in Toledo and Accra. Like, what do you want me
to read? I'll read it for you.
So he thought to himself that the most difficult is sort of anchor
boots. What are to God do? So I said I said read one or two to God
to sorta Lanka boots. So she started reading it from the
beginning, and she kept reading it in such a beautiful voice
beautiful Kara. She was reading it until she finished her little
anchor booth. Then she started sorta to room she finishes solar
to row
as well, then she started sort of, sort of Lachman, she finished that
as well. such eloquent voice beautiful Tajweed and everything.
I was just looking at her amazed he didn't have a recorder.
Otherwise, you know, he's a, Hey, hold on, hold on, let me take, you
know, let me video this. That's what we would do today.
So he didn't have any of that he was just mesmerized.
So these things happen.
There is an interaction that happens sometimes. But as long as
you read your duels, and the main thing we have to realize, as
mentioned in the Quran, is that the jinns are supposed to be
frightened from us, but because we can't see it, and they seem to
have this advantage of being able to see us and we can't see them,
we get frightened from them because we get frightened of
unseen things.
But they're supposed to be frightened of us. So if you just
scare them, then they'll go away. AYATUL kursi
and confidence in your heart, that's the main thing, the Wakulla
Allah, Allah
and nothing can happen to you. Just tell him you're the creation
of Allah and the creation of Allah Allah bIllahi min ash shaytani
regime.
So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is the leader of the
jinn as well.
And that's why he says, when the person says, honestly, you don't
Nursey You're welcome. I'm the leader of the people on the day of
judgment. He just said that because obviously he's talking to
the people, but otherwise, he's the leader of the gin as well on
the Day of Judgment.
Because the gin the Insan, the humans, everything will be there,
every animal everything will be there on the day of judgment and
the prophets, Allah lorrison will have the maximal Mark moods.
Then he says Nabhi unil Urmi Runa he fala Abbar Rafi Colin la min
who wala anatomy.
Our Prophet, this one has many different interpretations,
literally what it says our prophets, the one who commands and
the one who prohibits follow or hadn't Abara there is nobody who
is more fulfilling, in his statement of saying no, than him.
No, in his statement of saying yes. Now what does that mean? So
one translation is our Prophet who commands and forbids there is none
more faithful to His word, whether yes or no. So one interpretation,
according to this, is that anybody who says yes for something, he
will do it when he says no for something, he won't do it, when he
orders something. It has to be obeyed when he prohibit something,
it should be prohibited. And another opinion is that whenever
he says yes to something, it's going to happen. Whenever he says
no to something, it's not going to happen. So there's many
interpretations of what exactly he means by this.
But we know of his truthful nature, the one thing he is
talking about here is his truthful nature. He was even before he
became a prophet. He was called Asad equal Amin, the truthful and
trustworthy one, because of just his behavior, which was like that.
So whether somebody today knows you're a believer or not, you're a
Muslim or not. Truthfulness is something that is beyond that
truthfulness should express itself regardless. In fact, truthfulness
should be the attraction towards you, then you tell them that
you're a believer and where your truthfulness comes from. Because
the believer can make any mistake except truthfulness. So can you
imagine if lots of Muslims start being untruthful,
then that talks about their destruction that speaks to their
destruction? Because when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, there's a hadith in which said Ya rasool Allah, can a
believer be a backheel. Stingy? You said, Yeah, that's a
possibility. Meaning I can imagine a believer who is stingy,
shouldn't be but it's a possibility. I Hakuna Jabatan can
he be a coward? Yes, absolutely. He could also be a coward or Kunal
Kazhagam. Can he be a liar?
No, he can't be a liar. Because the whole fact of our iman is
truthfulness to Allah subhanaw taala. When you start lying to
others, then we start lying to Allah will be tricking ourselves,
it will become a trait. So lying is very antithesis to Islam is
absolutely country. So if anybody has a problem of lying need to
really re evaluate ourselves. They say that the person who doesn't
lie, he never has to worry about what he said last time.
Because you don't make up stories for different people. You have to
make up different stories if you're a liar. According to you,
I'm a businessman and according to him, I'm a racing car driver. So
then I have to make sure I say the same thing next time. You know,
how's the McLaren? You know, I have to play my part. But if
you're a non les just simple you know, you you say what you have to
say. You know, politician lives. I don't know, man.
They must be difficult.
Politician lives. Like you have to be very careful of what you say
especially now.
Daisy's all artificial. That's why there was this whole documentary
about people like
Kennedy, they would do impromptu speeches because they didn't have
to worry about all of this analysis and criticism and all
that. Now every word of yours you have to have screenwriters, you
have to have script writers. And then sometimes the right things
you don't want to say anything. It's just really weird, weird
system today. So hello.
So you wonder who really is running the country and running
the show.
Okay, let's quickly look at the next one. The final one
who will Habibollah the total Joshua two who liquidly holy
middle outwardly Makuta HeyMy.
Who will Habibollah the torture Scheffer to who liquidly holy
minute Who early McDreamy he is the loved one. He is the Habib the
loved one who's intercession is hoped for a victory against every
terror and calamity. So you can imagine you can you can hope for
his intercession
and he is going to be a victory against any terror and calamity.
There is nobody else. There is only one person that has gained
the position of villa with Allah.
Sorry, of being happy with Allah because it's a slightly higher
level than Hill, which is the Helene of Allah, which is Ibrahim
alayhis. Salam.
So Habib is higher than Khalil.
The difference? This is a very interesting analysis of the
difference between Ibrahim Ali Psalms state and the Prophet
salallahu. Psalms MACOM. And it's not to diminish Ibrahim Al Islam
from his status in any way is this to show how Rasulullah Salallahu
Salam is of a higher status. So
the Khalil, he gets to Allah through a means and and, and an
intermediary, not directly. How, look,
this is what Allah himself says in the Quran. We're going to take all
of these from the Quran, Allah subhanaw taala says, What cathodic
annuity Ibrahim and Mallacoota, Samoa at Worlds. We showed Ibrahim
alayhi salam, the Dominion and the sovereignty of the heavens, we
showed him.
So what did we show him? We showed him our dominion, not ourselves,
not ourselves. Whereas when it comes to the Surah, allah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Habib, he says, Allah says, The Cana
Kobelco SANY o Adinath.
He was
as close as a bow, or if not closer.
Allah knows best what that means. But he did not justify it will
suffice with showing him the heavens and the earth. But he took
him even beyond where Gibreel and A salaam could go.
That's the difference. Then
the Khalil Ibrahim Alayhi Salam.
When he is hoping for his forgiveness, it's it's a desire,
it's a hope, not convinced, not conviction. Thus he says, In the
Quran, will lay the autumn when Lizzie automaticall El Faro, the
hottie hottie, he is the one who I hope, I really hope that he will
forgive me my blunders.
So this is what he brought him on Islam is saying
whereas with the Prophet sallallahu, alayhi wasallam. It
was to the level of full Yochanan conviction he says, and this is
under promise that Lawson doesn't even have to say anything. Allah
says it is like I'm telling you, I want this from you. And I hope
this from you. And the other is that you come and tell me that
don't worry about it. You're sorted.
One is I give my an express my hope. And I have some level of
hope that yes, it will happen. The other one is that I don't even
have to ask you you've told me you're in.
That's why Allah says Leah Farah laka Allahu Mata cut them in them
become a Mata. So that Allah subhanaw taala forgive for you
what you've done before or is gonna come afterwards. So Allah is
giving that conviction.
He's not even asking for it.
Then
the third is that the Khalil says, What are two Xeni? Yoma you
baritone? Do not humiliate me on the day of resurrection. Whereas
Allah says, Yo Mala yo Zilla. Hoonah be yo when Latina Aman
humara Allah says it Rosa Rossum Islam saying it. Allah says the
day when Allah will not humiliate the Prophet and those who believe
with him. This is Allah on his own behalf giving this guarantee even
for us that Allah will not humiliate us as long as we can
qualify for well Latina Amman, Omar, those who believe in
I believe with him as long as we can qualify with that we're
sorted.
So the halal is asking for not being humiliated whereas the Habib
is being given it without questioning. Then Allah subhana wa
Taala starts off with the progress of us and by saying in our Athena
calculator,
we've given you hired Kathy, we've given you the co author, which
means abundant blessings, abundant good, we've given it to you. So
that's, that's on its own. He's giving that number for
when Khalid Ali Salam was in a calamity, and there was a trial in
front of him is that has to be Allah. Allah is sufficient for me.
For the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam, Allah Himself says, again,
the prophets of Assam doesn't have to say anything. He says, Yeah,
you have Nabil Hasbrook Allah.
Oh Prophet, Allah is sufficient for you. So he's not asking
anything Allah is telling him Don't worry about it. Allah is
sufficient for you. Number five
Karela de Salam. He asked, What's your Elisa in a sipping? Make for
me a truthful tongue.
And for the Habib, Allah subhanho wa Taala says what a foreigner
Luca declerck We've elevated your mentioned don't worry about number
six.
Hallelujah Salam says what do you know? Binney? Well, Benny nabooda
la snom protect me and my children from worshipping idols, and for
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said in nama UD doula who
knew the Banco militia Allah Bates were you taught here or contact
Hira? That Allah subhanahu wa Tada has desired and willed to remove
from you all forms of filth, oh, people of the house, the house of
the Prophet sallallahu sallam said these are advanced guarantees
being given, and bounties being shot showered on Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
So when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam status is so
great and so high, and so mighty, and so elevated, then obviously
why would you ask for Shiva from anybody else? And if he's got that
status, then don't you think that if we know Allah is so merciful,
then he is we've just established the status of the Prophet
sallallahu Sallam his closeness to Allah. Allah is giving him all of
these things without even him asking for it. Then on the Day of
Judgment, if you're going to go and ask the one who you think is
going to who's accept whose intercession is going to be
accepted, who do you think it's going to be? It's going to be
Rasulullah sallallahu sallam. That's why he's saying who will
Habibollah the Torah Joshua, too. So by saying he is the Habib, he
is the most beloved one of Allah, he's all is already placing him in
the right position. And he's saying that his intercession can
be anticipated because he is the Habib, that's what you call really
powerful poetry, that he's using the right terms. He didn't say he
is the one he's giving you the reason why he is the one whose
intercession can be expected because he is the Habib, there's
nobody above Habib, if anybody's accepted, if anybody is going to
be accepted to intercede is going to be Rasulullah sallallahu
Ariosa. But we know that he is going to be and we know that
there's going to be others as well, but he is going to have the
highest level of intercession.
And that's why
all the difficulties on that day. That's why he says afterwards
liquidly holy minute, I heard he mocked me for a victory against
every terror and calamity on that day, because that is going to be
the most difficult data anybody will face. Because it's a it's
it's either being saved, or its ultimate success. It's one or the
other.
The Hadith of the shofar Atul Cobra, which is that shahada I
spoke about earlier, that the people on the day of judgment
before the reckoning begins, we're going to go to the different
prophets. It's a famous Hadith and Asahi hain, we're not going to
mention again because generally, people it's quite commonly known
Imam Ghazali mentioned there, that he reckons that this is the people
from other OMAS we're gonna go to them all the prophets because our
Ummah is going to know we have to go to rasool Allah, we don't need
to go to anybody else. So we're going to think when we just go to
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and the Prophet salallahu
Alaihe. Salam has five Scheffer ads, there are five possibilities
of different intercessions number one,
which is to to you know, to give everybody some kind of relaxation
on that day of standing, which is that shafa we spoke about, that's
only the profit and loss one has that nobody else will be able to
do that one. Number two is to enter give some people VIP passes.
No questions. Go to gender straight, no question. Go to
gender straight. You can go you can go you can go a 30. Sec. Some
guy told me the other day he says he went
with two friends somewhere and one of the friends had two passes to
get into a business class or first class lounge on the airport, so he
got in his Valeriy checking in. That's all shafa like one guy has
it so now this you go there without anything completely
they're gonna throw you ready but if you go with somebody okay,
sorry no problem go
so that's number three.
So the second one is to get people into Jannah without any question
whatsoever, so just no hassle whatsoever. They pick you up as
soon as you come out of the plane red carpet service colors there
you go. No customs nothing just go right. Even better than that.
Anyway, number three is Coleman is still juggernaut philosophy. I
know people who've been designated to go to hellfire. So they've had
hisab they've had the reckoning, they should be going to hellfire.
Now, you know, we let you off you've just had a call Hello
Cyril. Right? You've just been saved? I don't mind that either.
Right but inshallah agenda to free those is what we're hoping for,
not these lower stages, inshallah. And number four
these are people who've already gone into the Hellfire now, the
others they were on the way they've been just designated the
feeling really bad. And then suddenly, there's some good news.
That Okay, fine, you know, these they've gone into the hellfire.
Now they're going to be taken out. Number four is number four is yes,
those people and number five is people who are already in gender
now. So you're in business class, going to first class, right? If
there's anything beyond so, you know, you can go in a higher place
than what you should be going to. So we give you a few upgrades.
May Allah subhanho wa taala, makers of this, of this of this
place, in sha Allah, with our love for Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam.
Now, the thing is that the resolution would love to take
everybody with him, no doubt. But we have to give him some excuse.
Because there has to be some kind of law and order. Some kind of
excuse the person is looking for an excuse, Allah is looking for an
excuse. So we need to have a better excuse than others. And
everybody has to have a better exit, but there's lots of spaces
so it doesn't matter.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
is just so focused on his OMA that every prophet has been given this
one special dua, which is accepted straightaway. And most of them
have used it against their people or for something or the other like
new Haile Salam. You think the storm would have come just like
that? That was special to us that he used that these people just
finish them off now. I've given that out to them for 950 years.
Now going to listen has finished them off. But the Prophet
sallallahu I do some is related in the sahih. Hadith. Probably Salah
some said Nikolina been downward to Mr. Java. Yeah, the Ruby her.
Every prophet has this one special dua that they're given, which is
going to be accepted. And if they ask for it, we're gonna take that
away at the medieval era. But I have saved this special one for my
ummah to use it in the hereafter.
That's his mercy. He could have used it so many times around, but
no, he kept it for us in the Hereafter.
May Allah subhanho wa Taala grant him the greatest blessings on
behalf of all of us.
And for eternity. He read that one annual hamdu Lillahi Rabbil
