One of the benefits of saying a villa, a villa is the plural of
the real, the real means.
Almost like degraded, no power. A person who doesn't have the
ability to do anything anyway. So he's saying that even if you do
have power to do something, you should still be very humble, as
though you can't do anything. Not in a way of being lowly and mean
and downtrodden, but in a dignified way that you're above
that it's a honorable form of letting go see what I'm saying?
It's a dignified form of letting it go because it's a waste of
time, or it's just gonna You have to be merciful. Our Allah is
encouraging us to be merciful in general.

Yeah,

well, me, law her or Sudha, who will levena Manu in his law, he
humo Law The Boo, Allahu Akbar. So Hassan Basu says that no, this
actually while it was revealed at the Prophet sallallahu his time,
but it was referring to the people who would reject the faith after
him. Because after the person passed away, then we had these
huge amounts of people in different areas, and I'll mention
them in a bit more detail who went away from the faith. So this was a
prophecy almost saying that look, this verse is relevant for them,
even though it's being revealed right now.
For Sophia Tila will be combing your hair boom when you hit buena
and Allah subhanaw taala will then just bring other people who love
Him and
they love him and he loves them. So Hasan Basri Rahim. Allah says
that this is referring to Wallahi Abu Bakr and his companions,
because they fought against these people, and they quelled this
rebellion.
There's lots of other views, but I'm just going to keep it short
because we have a short amount of time. Now just to give you an idea
of what happened at that time, just so that it puts things in
perspective that we've been through upheavals, right. The
upheavals of today are not new. Right. They're just generically
new things that keep coming up. But look at what happened. So
after the Prophet sallallahu Sallam well actually during the
Prophet blossoms time.
According to the Marcellinus Kashif, he says that, we can
actually
enumerate all of the people at that particular time who went away
from the faith into 13 factions, 13 groups, 13 tribes that in
groups, three, actually during the time of the Prophet Salivarius,
and while he was still alive,
and the rest after him, so the three during the prophecy Lawson's
time. The first was the Blue Moon, which might not really be helpful
for anybody here, but their their leader will rule him out.
The guy with the donkey, humanoid means donkey. So the guy with the
donkey, right, the donkey guy. His actual name was a swaddle Annecy
used to be on a donkey. So us with a lancy. Now, you may have heard
of him a swaddle and see, that's why he's in a sweat right and see,
he used to be a soothsayer. So he was into this kind of occult
practices from before he was a soothsayer.
And then he claimed prophecy, he must have seen something in the
glass ball
In the tea leaves or anyone or TV, well, you know what I mean? No
suits. So you must have seen something I thought, I am the
Prophet. Right. So he claimed prophecy in Yemen. So he was from
down south, in Yemen. And he took over quite a bit of land, new
ideas always fresh. So people want to take them on first until they
lose their luster. And then it's like, Man, I wasted my time in
this sector group or movement or whatever. You have to really be
careful right? After you've lived in the worst in the world, right?
You've seen groups rise and fall, then you realize, but now I'm
reflecting over, you know, when I used to see groups that like they
seem interesting. Anyway, so what he did was that he had evicted the
governors of the province of Lawson from those areas in Yemen,
okay, and basically took over. So the province also wrote to the
governor, main governor of Yemen was morality Mujibur, or the
Allahu Anhu. This was towards the end of the person's life as well,
and some of the other leaders of Yemen and basically Allah subhanho
wa Taala had him destroyed by a great warrior pharaohs, a daily
pharaohs, a Daelim. He was the one who finished this first import
imposter off, right. And the promise the last one was
miraculously given a text message. Right, meaning Miraculously, he
was told, so he, the night that he was killed process, I'm told this
was miles away. He told everybody that in Madina, Munawwara and
Muslimeen became very, very happy because that was one of the first
of those who had come up so you know, the one of the first to
claim prophecy while the prophets Allah was still alive.
The second one, which was a tough one, right? The second one was the
blue Hanifa.
Nothing to do with the honey Hannah fees or this the blue honey
for the tribe, right?
They were the they were the tribe of musei lemma. You probably heard
of Musa al Qaeda, they were referred to him as the liar. But
his name was more Salem.
I mean, maybe that's why this small, small Muslim, Muslim, Salem
Macedo.
Anyway, he got messed up somehow he claimed prophecy. This guy was
very bold, right? Like he thought he was onto something, and used to
try to perform miracles and so on. He wrote to the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam saying, Min Musa Allah Mahila Amin Musa Rasulillah
Rasulullah
from Salem at the Messenger of Allah, Allah Muhammad Rasool Allah
okay he claims that he's profit as well he's like, Okay, you're a
prophet as well. I'm a messenger as well your messenger and my bad
for email or the nice whoo Ha Lee when is for her luck.
After all, praises the earth is half for you and half of me is
enough to go around you take off no problem and I'll take off
trying to get clever maybe that rather than claiming it all, you
know, maybe will last for half at least and start with that.
The Prophet sallallahu Sallam wrote to him, right? Muhammad
Rasool Allah, Allah will say them it'll get the job from Muhammad
the Messenger of Allah to Maceda mother Leia, that blatant liar
that's where probably the name comes from a my bad after praises
for in a lot of that in the earth is not for me and you the earth is
for Allah. You read to Hama Yasha, Amina Reba, and he makes
inheritors there in whomever he wishes of his servants without the
material Mottaki and final consequence is for the righteous
ones. He was a major, major thorn in the side, the bucket now the
person passed away. After that he wasn't dealt with during that
time, the province of Assam passed away very soon. In fact,
Parliament passed away very soon after and si was killed the first
one
Abu Bakr, the Alon inherited this problem, big problem. And he sent
carded, been worried. And those guys were fighters to the last
breath, they would quell so much of them, and they would come back
and they would come back and it was a major, major operation.
But eventually he got killed at the hands of none other than
washy. The one who killed Hamza, but the Allahu Anhu had now become
Muslim. And a person told him that you know, just be on the side, but
he was part of this and he killed him. And he used to say that I
killed the best of the people in Jehovah times.
That's in my Jahir times I killed the best of us Hamza with the
Hola, Juan. And now I've killed the worst of people in Islam after
becoming Muslim of color working so he compensated for his
that was the second guy. The third person was, again who came up in
time for them but then the person passed away dealt with afterwards
is the blue Asad. The that was the tribe of to lay her to lay her.
You'll hear his name today have been to lay her ignore her while
it
The small Talha to lay ha the small Talha right IGNOU Hawaii lid
is a small harlot, that in Arabic they do that. Right? Who may Allah
Hamra? We have these names.
Omega is from an ear, same kind of idea. So
La ilaha illallah, he creates a he claimed prophethood
the province of Assam sent had been worried against him. And he
after that he ran away to Sham to Syria. And Marshall, they became
Muslim. So this was a good story. He became Muslim and became a very
good Muslim actually, in this case, right.
So those were the three who claimed prophecy in the town of
Barcelona after that, who came up afterwards, then I'm just gonna
mention some of the names for you. There's seven of them in Abu Bakr
at the time and one, you know our audience and after that you just
stopped I think they realize that this is not worth it's not worth
it, it's not going to work. Okay, so there's still people trying in
the time of Abu Bakr and that's when most of them come out. So you
have fissara the fissara which is the tribe of Oriental, ethno,
hasten,
then you have a lot of fun, a lot of fun. We're up north. Right, a
lot of fun. We're up north, beyond Madina, Munawwara Cora IGNOU
selama, Alko shady, they were his tribe, the Benu sulayem. The the
people of the tribal Fuji in the app the lien, okay. I don't know
what if these names mean anything to anybody here, but no, your boo.
Maliki blown away? restripe. So you'll usually hear about Maliki
but on the way to all of this discussion, if you read about it
in his history, his Sierra, you will find it all there. Then some
of the bandwidth, I mean, not all the bandwidth me some of the
bandwidth me okay. We have a famous bandwidth meme today,
right? That are in power somewhere. So these were this was
the tribe of
Sajha
Ben Tillman, where this was a claim of a prophet s. A claimant
to be a female prophets, tests claimant, right, she thought let
me join in on the on this on this trend as well. So she took part as
well.
And she was quite
looks like she was quite intelligent. She went and married
herself to Musa Lama is do this together. Right? You're the male
one and I'm the female one. So they did it together. Right. Then
there was the kinder, the tribe of ash as a blue case, case. And the
blue burka Ivanova, l in Bahrain, the people the tribe of hatom
immunoassay. Allah subhanaw taala quelled all of them at the hands
of obika Sydney that was in the two years and four or five months
of a winner, the Allah one, they were all dealt with. Now imagine
there was absolute peace. You had these little issues at the end of
the process and with these three imposters, right? But then Obama
came and then suddenly he's got all of these people then besides
this, he's got people who don't want to pay zakat. It was a tough
time. Right? But mashallah, he succeeded. He showed his prowess
and his firmness and he got it all sorted out for Amara, the other
one. So then there was one group that came up in the towel. obok
Amara, the Allahu and that was the sun. Right, the sun, the tribe of
Jebel YBNL, Abraham, Jabba YBNL Abraham.
Now what happened is Jabba became a Muslim, Amara, the ALLAH and he
became Muslim at the hands of OH MY GOD, ALLAH Juan. So there's
always some grievance somewhere, sometimes it's agreements, that's
an issue, like and then it's selfishness that comes out of it.
See many groups, like many groups that you'll see, you'll see that a
lot of it has to do with grievance somewhere, some kind of grievance,
maybe an oppression from the other side, or whatever it is, or fairly
or unfairly. Right. So look at this now.
One day he was doing tawaf.
And he had some long garment on that was dangling behind him,
right, like a wedding dress, right?
And some guy must have
stepped on it. And he got very angry.
I mean, come on, man, you got this big train. What do you expect? You
know, so somebody must have stepped on it. So he got very
angry and slept him.
That person went to oh my god, Hola, Juan with a complaint with a
case against him. So Omar, the owner said, Okay, fine, you can
slap him back.
Because that was it, you know, right. An eye for an eye. Right?
For a right. Unless he forgives you. He gave him that option
unless he forgives you them he unless you forgive him, you can
slap him back. So this guy doesn't want to be slapped. Like he's got
his own pride and everything. So he's saying
A steady hobby, I'll buy off the slap 4000.
The guy goes, No.
He kept on giving him more to try to expiate for him until he
reached 10,000 as a lot of money, you know, so that he won't be
slapped. He has no, I just want to stop here.
Someday, sometimes that's what you want. You don't want the money.
You just want the slap, right? So
now this guy, this, Jabara, YBNL. Abraham, he said,
Just give me some time, then, fine. Give me some time. You asked
for respite already? Fine, give it a few days, whatever it is, the
guy ran, escaped to the Romans. So the Roman were in power at the
time and became motivated, just for a slap.
why would why do you think you would do that? Just think of the
reasoning. So I think it's very important for us to understand
what do you think had led him to do something like?
Arrogance definitely seems seemingly, right. Definitely.
ego, arrogance, pride, all of that. The same thing, right. The
other thing is, if he knew the value, he became Muslim, a lot of
people become Muslim. Sometimes they don't know the value that
they born Muslim, but they don't know the value. Nobody's explained
it to them. Like you have something so valuable. They
probably don't even know about the hadith of la ilaha illallah being
more powerful on the scale, in the hereafter that it can just totally
get, you know, overwhelm everything else, they probably
don't even know that, like genuinely that hadith we may know,
because it's infantile Ahmad, I think, and everybody talks about
it. But there's a lot of people don't read for it. Or know that
hadith for that matter.
So when you don't know the value, then you can easily fall, you can
easily lose what you have. If you've got a product and you don't
know the value. Somebody can * it away from you or con you
into selling because you don't think it's a good bike, for
example. You got it from somebody that you don't it's a great bike
with special gears and special this and special that. Right? I
don't know why I'm talking about bikes here. Right? Maybe my
goodbyes here and I don't know. But and you just set it off
because I go big deal. But when you know the value of something,
then you're gonna give it that value, right? That's why it's very
important. I'll, I'll come into the light and the life of L away
from the darkness and death of ignorance.
This is why people are here and there. It's ignorance. It's
ignorance, it's ignorance, nothing else. It's ignorance. You have to
understand the Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu
wasallam. You have to understand the wisdom of the Sharia.
Okay, then, so after Allah subhanho wa Taala declares that
part that look, if you're going to do this, Allah will bring back
some people are not going to make any difference to you. Then after
that Allah subhanaw taala says, describing the real people of
Allah, those people who believe they are most intense in their
love for Allah subhanaw taala. I don't want to repeat this because
I've already done a reflection on this just a few days ago. Right?
And you can go and listen to that very, very profound will take me
You know, I could take it take an hour on that subject. Basically
Allah is saying that the real people who believe they are most
intense in their love for Allah, more than anything else, more than
anything else.
And then Allah subhanaw taala says, In description of the real
believers is a sheet as in Latin, as in Latin idle mode meaning, or
is that in idle carefully, very humble, very humble, in front of
believers and with believers, but very,
very, very bold in front of disbelievers.
Similar to another verse in subtle fact, which you probably have read
before Ashida widen Kufa. Rohana obey now severe against the
disbelievers, very merciful between them.
One of the benefits of saying a villa, a villa is the pool of the
deal, very means
almost like degraded, no power, a person who doesn't have the
ability to do anything anyway. So he's saying that even if you do
have power to do something, you should still be very humble, as
though you can't do anything. Not in a way of being lowly and mean
and downtrodden, but in a dignified way, that you're above
that. It's an honorable form of letting go. See what I'm saying?
It's a dignified form of letting it go because it's a waste of
time, or it's just going to you have to be merciful. Our Allah is
encouraging us to be merciful in general.
And Isaiah in Alka feeling could be multiple things. And one of the
meanings that we can understand here is that we need to anything
that anybody brings against Islam
to show its weakness or criticism, and so on, we need to be very
clear in responding to it.
That's one of the really important things that we have to learn from
this verse that we have to be very clear, we can't not do anything,
because otherwise, the dean is going to be destroyed, you can't
survive as a faith, you can't survive as a group of people here
hamdulillah people are doing we have their ease and doing but
everybody needs like at your workplace, if somebody, you know,
has been, a lot of people are innocent people, they've just been
misled by media and other things like that, at the end of the day,
we need to give them the right thing. I mean, they're, you know,
the idea is that you don't like, go and start fighting with people
like that, come on, you know, that's not what it means here. So,
this could be
the approach that you have, in terms of making sure you set the
account right, to the best of your ability, in this case, right, and
in whatever context, that it that is required. And then Allah says,
Yuja, he doesn't, if he Sabine Allah, to assist the dean, they
will do jihad in the path of Allah in the multiple ways, whether it
means fighting, if that is what is called for in the specific
context, and otherwise, fighting with words, fighting with
clarifications, and whatever else is required. And in that case,
when you are doing your data, right, making your efforts, your
your exertion in the path of Allah subhana, WA, tada, they have one
alone metalline You are not going to be concerned about a criticism,
because your ulterior motive and you know that shaytan is going to
cause problems, you know, that there's going to be shayateen and
there's going to be detractors who are trying to come in your way to
distract you, to get you occupied with stuff carry on with your
work. Because otherwise, it's going to be a waste of time,
you're going to waste a lot of time, and you're gonna get
occupied from your main objective of benefiting more people.
La ilaha illAllah.
Because your purpose of doing this is not for yourself, it's actually
for the sake of Allah. So that's why you don't if as long as you're
doing correctly, a lot of people they act a bit severe and messed
up. And extreme. Right, we've had, we've had recent unfortunate bad
history with such people who think they're on the right track, and
they go in really hard and actually give some of that name,
there has to be will. And they would probably take it from the
literal meaning of this and just misunderstanding. Whereas they
don't, they won't look at the way the profit and loss have dealt
with it. The person didn't deal with it like that. When intensity
was required, he used it, but otherwise the person also was
compassionate. So keep that in mind. Right? Don't let this be
misused. And Allah finished celebrating Allah who is here on
it. And Allah subhanaw taala is extensive. That was it. You see,
the two characteristics usually are very relevant. They don't just
randomly use hear what I say. And it was it means extensive in
scope, that refers to is absolute ability. He's got control and
ability over whatever he wants. He's got extensive control. So
that's good.
And the secondary says, Aleem absolutely knowledgeable of
everything that I'm missing one, these after higher than life. The
two fundamental characteristics are knowledge
and power. Because without knowledge and power, everything
else doesn't matter. All that every other characteristic is
based on knowledge and power. And the both of those are based on
life. And Allah is the living one, hey, but then he has ultimate
power and ultimate knowledge.
So what how is this relevant to what Allah just said? Well, he
said, Well, I know what's going to come. Right? I know what's going
to come and I know the power that I'm going to give people as well
of those people who will reject them and people who will put them
down right, these things obviously take longer, these obviously take
long, so you go. So then finally, the last verses are just to set
the point. And just the just to kind of conclude it you can say
Allah says, In nama whether you come Allah, your Allah is Allah
and His Messenger, and the people who believe who established the
prayer, who gives a cut and who are frustrating.
So they're active in this regard.
So
what's important to understand here is that where there is
somebody who is in some trouble, or has been attacked, then you
need to show them that you're there.
That's very, very important. You have to show them you're there
because people are human beings. If they get criticized, they get
accused of something. They run into some
Trouble, then as a human being, you just feel like the world is
against you. We're social beings, we thrive on one another, we get
comforted by one another. So it's very important to offer support to
others who may be facing some criticism or otherwise. It's very,
very helpful as human beings in any case in any situation, just to
give them and bolster them a bit. May Allah subhanaw taala give us
the trophy to truly represent this to truly become these kinds of
believers. And may Allah subhanho wa Taala protect us from excesses.
May Allah protect us from shortcomings. May Allah give us
the moderation and the perfection and the Kamal and may Allah
subhanaw taala make us the true believers. That one will

The point of a lecture is to encourage people to act to get
further an inspiration and encouragement, persuasion. The
next step is to actually start learning seriously to read books
to take on a subject of Islam and to understand all the subjects of
Islam at least at the basic level, so that we can become more aware
of what our deen wants from us. And that's why we started Rayyan
courses so that you can actually take organize lectures on demand
whenever you have free time, especially for example, the
Islamic essentials course that we have on there, the Islamic
essentials certificate which you take 20 Short modules, and at the
end of that inshallah you will have gotten the basics of most of
the most important topics in Islam and you will feel a lot more
confident. You don't have to leave lectures behind you can continue
to live, you know, to listen to lectures, but you need to have
this more sustained study as well as Zach Allah here and Salam
aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
