So that Allahu La Vie May Allah inspire us through the Quran, and
may Allah make us students, and those who comprehend and
understand the Quran allow us to be students of the Quran for for
life, may Allah allow us to die while still studying and
understanding the Quran. And getting a better understanding of
it. The Quran is endless, it's an endless sea, you can never get to
the end of it. So may Allah subhanho wa Taala allow us to
continue to swim in the sea until we die in sha Allah.
Right today, the discussion is a really, really interesting one.
Some of you, you know, many of you may have already heard this
discussion. And since the Quran, as we mentioned, came over 23
years. So the community, as we described before the community
changes and the community develops and it evolves, and it becomes
better. And it started off with being a community that was very,
very far in ignorance, hugely ignorant. In fact, that whole
period is called the Age of Ignorance. So Allah subhanho wa
Taala wanted to take people from that age through the age, you
know, into, into into late middle Zulu Matty Elon nor, now that
requires nurturing that requires nurturing a steady, steady flow of
nurture, for 23 years as the Quran was revealed for 23 over 23 years.
Now, that obviously means that there's going to be some things
that were prohibited first, and then maybe permitted later. Some
things would be permitted first and prohibited later. And some
things would be prohibited first and permitted later.
There'd be some things which were in a certain way, and then it
would be changed now because the community had changed. Now they
were ready for the next stage.
So what would happen sometimes what that means is that something
would be commanded, and then that would be canceled, and then there
would be another command afterwards. It's just the evolving
process of this whole system. There's nothing surprising about
it. That should help to make today's lesson and the subject for
today much more easier to understand. Today, the subject is
about a concept called NASA. NASA. Now NASA in Arabic, has two
primary meanings. The first meaning is
erase something NASA means to efface erase, eliminate omit
something. So they use that in the Arabic For example, NASA hottie
Shamsul will, the sun erased the shadow because it moves that
shadow disappeared. That's the first meaning erasing to get rid
of to cancel.
To abrogate to cancel. The second meaning is
to transfer. The second meaning means to transfer,
transfer or inscribe in this case, because when you write something
when you inscribe something your guess you're transferring ideas
onto the written piece. So when you write something, and when you
inscribe something with a pen on a tablet, on a stone on a on a wall
or something like that, what you're doing is you're
transferring some ideas onto there. So it's this concept of
inscription. Right? Now from a Sharpie perspective, they took
this term and it relates to the Quran right very strongly to the
Quran because there is pneus in the Quran. There is a concept that
takes place which is that sometimes there's a command that's
given and then Allah cancels that command and says, do this now. No
longer is that applicable? It's this now. So this
this practice in the Quran, this you can say this update in the
Quran or this evolving process in the Quran is called nuskin Arabic
which we will
translate as abrogation, abrogation. That's what we've
called it abrogation. Right. And the technical definition that the
scholars have given is a rough rule Sheree Hoekman Minh, whom
would cut demon be hooked when Minho Mota Kiran for the
legislator, Who is Allah subhanaw taala, the legislator to eliminate
and remove a certain command that had been given before. So
originally there was a command that was given Allah said, do it
this way, or don't do that, for Allah subhanaw taala. Now to lift
that, remove that for another later command and updated later
command.
Now, this tells us a few things that if there was no command
before, and it was just no discussion about it before, people
were doing something in the beginning of Islam. And there was
never, for example, people were fornicating at the beginning of
Islam, right or drinking.
Later, that was not allowed. And it was prohibited, you would not
call that Nasser, you would not call it abrogation because the
Sharia had not given a command to drink, or to phony Kate, that now
it's removing that command. It was just something they were doing.
And it was just Allah subhanaw taala was just progressively
prohibiting it. That's not enough. And ask is where the person tells
you that do this, or don't do this. And then that changes. For
example, the prophets Allah Islam says in a hadith that contain a
hater, no hate to come. And Seattle cool. I used to prohibit
you from visiting the graveyards, I used to prohibited prohibit you
from visiting the graves because, you know, just to get rid of this
and just uproot the whole idea of praying to the dead or whatever,
you know, was the problem before. But now I'm telling you, zoo Ruha,
go and visit them. So there the process was clarifying that I did
have a ruling first. And now I'm saying you can go. So there you
can see there's a nurse, and abrogation taking place of a
command that was given first and no longer any more. Now, the Quran
includes that, but the people that it generally effects the people
who discuss the field rather the field, that it really, really
discusses NUS probably the most, or the Mussolini's that means the
legal scholars, legal theory scholars, because for them, they
have to work out which of the text comes first, which one comes
later, which one has cancelled out the other one. And the only way to
know this is to know which one came first. Otherwise, if you've
got two commands, one saying this and one saying the opposite, how
are you going to figure out which cancel which, so the way to know
that has to be either where the shadow the legislator told you
himself, that this is what it used to be, but now four and a half of
Allahu unkown. Now Allah subhanaw taala has made it easy for you,
right and a half of Allah who uncom like in central Bara, that
if you're 100, and you're you know, so initially it was, if
you're 100, you can take on 1000. Right, in a war, that would be the
obligation you have to go. But now, Allah subhanaw taala seen the
weakness in you. So now it would be if you're 100, and there's a
foe of 200, then you would have to do it otherwise not not if it's
more than that. So that was a command that was abrogated, you
could say in numerous cases like that. There's not that many cases
to be honest in which this has happened. Okay, but you'll
understand as we move on. Now,
for the person who's studying the Quran, he better know about the
concepts of abrogation, which in Arabic is calling us. Now, the
abrogating verse, the later verse, which abrogates, the earlier
command is called the Nasik. And that which has been abrogated, the
old command is the man Sue. So NASA cannot sue. So now you you
will become familiar with it with these terms, is the Nasik and
Mansukh, Naskh, or abrogation. And that's why the Imams have said
that it is not permitted for anybody who's serious about doing
Tafseer of the book of Allah.
Except that he better know he better have knowledge of the NASA
commandments. Otherwise, you'll make mistakes in the,
you know, for example, there's one verse which says, what Allah Allah
Deena up Guna, who failure to miskeen in total dakara. Right,
which is referring to where all the verses about fasting are, that
those who have the ability to fast they can actually expect for the
fast and not keep the fast if they want. That was a command in early
Islam that was allowed before. Not anymore. Right? Not anymore. So
that verse, its command has been abrogated. Okay? That's why once
it Radi Allahu Anhu came across one of the judges, you know, who
was in the position of authority, a judge and he said to him, Now in
those days, the judges you know, they were legislators, they knew
the jurisprudence
and everything and they were supposed to know the Quran
everything says a daddy for Nasik middlemen. So do you know the
difference between the nasty Hanuman sue
the abrogating from the abrogated one? And he said no. So he said,
Haluk to collect your destroy yourself, like you're messed up
yourself, and you're going to cause other people to destroy it
in their favor as well. So you can tell anybody you're serious about
this needs to understand it's not NASA is a big field. Right?
Because if you were to then start discussing all those verses,
number one, which have, you know, who, which have been abrogated?
There's a lot of difference of opinion about that. Not everybody
agrees to exactly which verses have been abrogated? Yes, there's
a few which everybody agrees to. But then there's a lot of others,
which some, so there's some people who've taken abrogation, like even
though Josie to about 260 verses in the Quran, others 230 Others
100 And something so there's quite a bit of difference of opinion,
but that's a lot. That's a lot. The majority don't agree that
there's that many commands that have been abrogated. There's,
there's, you know, there's probably a dozen or two dozen or
so generally that have been agreed upon, but there's a lot of
difference of opinion in some beyond that. Okay, that have they
and even in these ones, there's some people who just deny us
entirely. There's some people who deny that anything ever was
abrogated. They they tried to say it in different ways that no,
there's no muskets either been just become more specific, or is
changed in a different way. And there's lots of discussion, but
obviously, in the time that we have, we will mention probably the
most important things. Firstly,
let us understand what kinds of Musk has taken place with regards
to Islam, and especially in the Quran, right, but you're gonna
have to bring Hadith into this. Firstly,
there are about five or six different categories. The first
one is not school hokum, my backlog tilava. There are certain
verses in the Quran, like I just described to you earlier, about
the fifth year in the fasting, the verse is still there, the words
are still there, they're still part of the Quran, we still read
them, we interpret them in another way now, but in that, in some
cases, the verses are still there. But the original command that it
signified is no longer applicable. But the verse is still there, and
is there for historical purpose to show the development or for
whatever reason, Allah subhanaw taala once this is generally what
has happened, that most of the time the verse remained. Now you
might be thinking, Okay, if it was Quran, then obviously it would
remain because the Quran remains. Well, no, there are some verses
very, very, very, very few, that the ruling was cancelled, and
another ruling came in place of it. And the verse was also
removed.
He was told to be removed. Right now don't start getting doubts
about is that Quran has been changed or whatever, no, this was
all part of the process. over the 23 years, that there would be a
command and this asset, there's very few of those. There's very
few of those. Okay. Mostly, if there is an abrogation that has
taken place, the verse is still there. For example, I've quoted
this the you should know this example by now inserted dakara
regarding the edit of a woman who has lost a husband, a widow,
Allah subhanaw taala says, One levena with our phone Emile Kuma
Aruna as well, gentlemen, we'll see Italy as well, G Mata and eel
Holy *, Euro Raj. It's one year, they shouldn't be taken out
of the house, they should be allowed to stay there for one
year. That was the original hokum. But there's another verse which
interestingly, in Surah, Baqarah, as well, it's only about 510
verses before it, which has abrogated this, but it was
obviously revealed afterwards, but it's placed before this verse.
Allah says, while levena youth our fauna mu come with a Runa, as
well, Jeanie buss Nabil fusi hin, Roberta Ashura, Ashura. So that
one is saying that they only need to have their waiting period for
four months and 10 days, no longer one year.
Now, as I said, pretty much everybody agrees with this most
people, but there are a few who say no, actually, there's a way to
reconcile this. I'm not gonna get into that. But there's a way to
reconcile this. There's some those who want to deny that this verse
was actually abrogated. They say that, no, there's another way to
that if she wants to actually stay, she can actually stay for
1010 months because that one is actually not talking about
whether you call it the Edit itself is just talking about being
allowed to stay in the house. The other one is talking about the
edit. So they are actually talking about two different things. So
that's how you could actually even have a difference of opinion in
this regard, but majority would consider this to be an abrogation.
Number two.
The Quran, so what is going to abrogate this verse? It's the
Quran itself. So another verse And the example I've already provided.
For that the above example is the example for both of these ideas.
It's an example for the Quran, abrogating another verse of it,
and
it's an example of where the command, the ruling has been
abrogated, but the wording is still there in the Quran. Okay,
number three. And number four, I guess, is
a Quranic command from the Quran being cancelled by a Hadith of the
Prophet sallallahu sallam, or a command provided through the
Hadith or ruling providing the Hadith was cancelled by the Quran.
It could be both ways. These are number three and four. Okay, so
now obviously, the Hadith has to be very strong and so on for that
to have happened. But I mean, that was obviously happened during the
province that allows him every time he was strong, the Prophet
sallallahu sallam, you know, every hadith of his was strong at that
time, because there was no doubt about it. Right? So the example
there is,
initially the command was to pray to in the direction of where
Jerusalem, right that was the command. I mean, there had to be a
command. I mean, people just didn't pray to Jerusalem, you
know, you had to be told to pray to Jerusalem. Okay. And then Allah
subhanaw taala says in the Quran, for when li YJ cachette, oral
Masjid Al haram, face your turn your face in the direction of
missile haram, that canceled earlier who come to pray to
Jerusalem, this now the earlier command to pray to Jerusalem is
not in the Quran. It's from the Hadith the Prophet sallallahu
Sallam had told everybody this, and that's what he was doing
himself. So that command was established. And it was a command
it wasn't just by default, but it was something they were doing and
commanded to do it that way. Now, the Quran was revealed with these
words to cancel out that Suna.
La ilaha illallah
then we have
in some very rare cases
you know, earlier we said that you had the case where the ruling is
canceled but the wording is still there. You also have a case where
the wording has been cancelled. So it was there in the beginning of
Islam but then it was cancelled. It was removed,
but its ruling remains.
Its ruling remains
and this is related in Buhari etc from Amara, the Allahu Anhu. He
said that there was a verse that was revealed regarding stoning,
the, the married fornicators people who'd been married, if they
fornicate, they don't just get 100 flogs as non married people do
they actually get stoned to death. Now that's no longer physically in
wording in the Quran. It's obviously in the Hadith. But this
was a verse, I'll be crew Bill Vickery. This was a verse that was
in the Quran. According to this hadith of Amara, the Allah one
pretty much they've agreed on this. But the verses were revealed
were removed, but the command still stays and you get that from
the Hadith or you know that it's from the if you even if you don't
find it in the Quran, you'll get it from the Hadith, but it was
there. It's really interesting.
So
the last one is
those in which both the wording that used to be there as part of
the Quran, along with the ruling both become canceled. So I mean,
that makes sense in the sense that no longer do you need that in the
Quran. If it's not making any sense that I mean if it's not
fulfilling any other purpose, then okay, get rid of the verse as
well. Now this is all obviously up to Allah Subhana Allah and His
Messenger that's that's what they did. This is a Hadith related by
Sharia law and we learned this particular one. Now, how many
other examples we don't know because ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada says
that whenever we abrogate a verse or make it to be forgotten, so
there were verses or commands in the Quran that were made to be
forgotten when they were no longer relevant anymore. Allah says that
we made them to be forgotten and then we will bring something
superior to it or the like of it, so it's always replaced. So the
Quran that we have it, right, that the prophets Allah is provided for
us right at the end, that is the full Quran. Okay.
So I shouted the Allahu anha says, that, in that which was revealed
of the Quran was the following. I shall Rado Maluma Johar remember
that if a woman was to nurse a child, right meaning not her child
was somebody else's child for example, because I mean, if you
your own child already a Muharram they already unmanageable to you
but if you know somebody else's child, how much milk do they have
to take in
Wait for them to become your milk child and haram for you to marry
and haram for your children to marry, for example, so the Hanafi
say any amount of milk, right? That's one opinion, any amount of
milk. As long as there's some milk gone down, it's done. There's the
Shafi say that the baby has had to circle at least five.
It has to have circled at least five times not five meals, but
five sucks, at least.
Now this verse says, this verse which actually says that this used
to be in the Quran is that it has to be 10 times.
Now, nobody says that today, there's not a ruling that anybody
agrees with today that it has to be minimum 10 times that was
abrogated. The verse itself, the wording was abrogated, the ruling
was abrogated. And the command was now that it would be by five,
which is from a hadith which the Hanafis have not taken, because
they find it weak, but the Shafi is have taken that. So they say
that it has to be at least five bits, drips of milk, that the
child must suck to, you know, for this nursing prohibition to take
place as a milk relationship. So the five one, yes. So anyway,
actually, they say that it actually became now the five
that was in the Quran as well, it became five that was the NUS we
don't take that anyway. So we will move on now. Why I've already
described at the beginning, the benefit of NUS. And this is
something that I don't think no tradition, even before Islam, has
disagreed with because every new tradition that came it thought
that you had canceled the previous tradition, obviously, for them to
be relevant. They were a new tradition, right? If they claim to
be from God, they were cancelling out the previous tradition, for
example, the Christians after the Jews, right, he's already set up
and so on and so forth before that Mousavi Samsung, Ibrahim Ali
Salam, and so on. However, there is one group, which
denies the abrogation can take place in anything. And the
reasoning is that if God is the knower of everything, God is the
knower of everything, he knows the future. He knows the present, he
knows the past. So why would he give a ruling of some sort, and
then after a candidate for something new, why don't just
carry that on? They're missing a big point. And the big point
they're missing is what I described right at the beginning,
that communities and everything go and evolve, right? In terms of,
you know, there's some communities which are very simple. And then
after that, you know, Allah subhanaw taala teaches them, some
are really messed up Allah subhanaw taala teaches them, and
there's this whole, you know, process. And likewise, what has
happened is that, to be honest, in most of the religions, their core
theme is the same. But that core theme had been corrupted by the
people after the prophet had departed. So then Allah subhanaw,
taala, would refresh the faith, with the new tradition in and it
will be completely fully invigorated and refreshed, and so
on. And our last faith is never to be abrogated, which is Islam. So
there was, you know, the Abrahamic faith and then that was cancelled
out for by the mosaic faith and then, which is, you know, the
Torah and so on. And then that by Eastside Islam and the evangel,
and Eastside Islam, and then after that was supposed to be canceled,
you know, 500, and something years later by Muhammad Sallallahu
sallam, so many people, you know, that's what they agreed with. But
there are some people who are still on, you know, the beta
version, or the earliest version, and they're not upgraded. Right,
that isn't yours. It's an upgrade with the core themes intact, which
is monotheism. So that's why I say that people are just still on the
old theme, which is no longer applicable, at least, you know, if
you've got an old version of Windows, it still works. But in
this case, in front of Allah subhanaw taala is not supported at
all, it can't even be used, it's not something that you should be
using at all.
So that's, that's what it is. I mean, the humans evolved and
humans evolved in terms of, you know, ideas and thoughts and they
come from a bad place and they become better you know, it takes a
time to nurture that's why rationally as well it is accepted
and of course, it has happened and every so now
that is the reason why the Jews have not moved on after Musa
alayhis salam
they rejected the prophecy of East Saudi Salaam and they've obviously
rejected that it's applicable to and there's various views about
them right that they some actually consider Mohamed Salah ism to be a
prophet of God, but not for them. He is from the Arabs, he's not
from the Jews. They actually agree with that. That's what they say.
Right? So there's various views about that. Now, what I'm going to
say is that
Allah subhanaw taala declares it in the Quran. So this is the
prominent verse in Surah Al Baqarah man, sir
mean 18 Oh no see her TV Hi Ed mean, only for the LM LM and Allah
Allah coalition in kadhi. We do not abrogate. And I'm going to do
this according to what the majority take the meaning here. We
do not abrogate any verse, or cause it to be forgotten, except
that we bring superior to it. We install a superior ruling instead.
Oh mytheresa Or we replace it with a similar ruling. And don't you
know that Allah subhanaw taala is ability to do everything. That is
the verse in the Quran that tells us about abrogation, and not just
that one. There are other verses as well that tell us about
abrogation as well, right, but this is the main one that they
use.
So, this is told to us in the Quran. Now.
Let us just discuss on a more broader scale pneus and
cancelation of abrogation that has taken place in other traditions
and their rulings. I mean, there's quite a few this is just for you
to understand how Allah subhanaw taala changes rulings, for
example, in the time of other Malays Salaam in their Sharia
right in their way, they were allowed to marry their brothers
and sisters, because that was the only way that because everybody
was the children of Adam. Right? And at the money somehow, I'm had
many, many, many children. Now how would they reproduce because
everybody's brother and sister, they're all siblings. So it was
actually allowed for them to marry one another. I mean, there are,
there are explanations about this, right? Not necessarily in the
Quran itself, but from some testes and other places that Hawaii is
that I'm used to have maybe twins or a set of children. And so
those, they would not be able to be married to one another. But
they could marry from another set. So the boy from here could marry a
girl from another set another pair, okay, another set of twins,
I'm not sure if they were twins or what but that's the idea that was
allowed, but then that's been cancelled ever you nobody, you
know? No, Sharia allows now, we would call * nowadays, you
know, the proper form of interest.
Then after that, salam after the flood, to eat from most animals,
because there was probably, you know, a dearth of food. So they
had animals, right. And then after that was made haram again, haram,
that was made haram to only certain animals are allowed to be
consumed. Likewise, for Jacoba, Li Salam, Israel and his children, it
was actually allowed to be married to two sisters at once. So in
Islam, that's not allowed. You can't be married to two sisters at
the same time. You can be married to them one after the other if you
divorce one on one days, but you can't have two sisters, as
multiple wives at one time. And the reason is that, generally
there's issues between co wives, and you don't want that to be
between relatives between sisters essentially, you know, so it's
just to avoid that.
Then after that, in the Torah that was disallowed, when Musa Islam
came that was disallowed, but it was allowed before that it says in
the in the history. So
actually, you know, this actually proves that even within the Jewish
tradition, there was nothing. And there was abrogation
in terms of the people who've written about this subject, and so
on, there's a lot of orlimar who have written on specifically the
subject of pneus. And of course, when the verses come in the Quran
manifested in many of the commentators will discuss them and
say this verse has been abrogated by that verse or this one's or
abrogated of that verse. Now in terms of those scholars, who
actually separately and independently wrote about nos one
is Imams to UT. Another one is abou obaidul, Kasim, IGNOU, Salem.
Another one is the famous Imam, a Buddha with prestigious tiny, the
one with the sun and then Abu Jaffa on the house, then there's
YBNL Ambari, and YBNL Oribi, as well. And then there's MKi
ignobly, Taalib, a number of others Rahima, whom Allah, as you
Marine, may Allah have mercy on all of them.
Except that, as I mentioned earlier, there's a lot of
difference of opinion between them as to, according to their study,
whether something is truly abrogated or not. So as I said,
some have extended that to many, many, many, while others have said
it's much less there's some who have lots of like over 250 and
others, just a handful. Right?
Let's give a few examples. Allah subhanaw taala says in the Quran,
why me Mao was upon whom you feel goon you know, it's famous right
in the beginning of the sutra, Bukhara and they spend from that
which We have provided for them. So now that the reason for the
difference of opinion here is that they say that this was the initial
command that you just spend from whatever Allah subhanaw taala has
commanded. Okay?
They say that
Such a versus there's lots of these versus the spending from
what Allah has given you that was actually Mansu by the obligate
that was actually cancelled by the obligation of zakat which means
that the cost was 2.5% So that's it that's all you have to spend
you don't spend any more than that right now that's obviously
incorrect that's not a correct enough this is not enough at all
because the first one is Nephal it's optional you can spend
whatever you want the all the Akeem Salah to Zika all that did
was the obligated a certain percentage. You still had the
option to spend it was still a recommendation to spend on other
amounts right? Because when we Marisa canal home UniFi Cohn
praising the people who spend from what Allah has given them, that
includes a cat that includes knuffel charity includes optional
charity so includes all of that so all the AKI masala there was just
obligated a certain amount so you can't say that that did pneus of
that actually just was a was another aspect of it. That's it.
Another beautiful example that is generally mentioned is that
Allah subhana wa Tada, the verse is eluding me right now, but what
Allah subhanaw taala mentions is that the toil and fighting was
allowed because these people had been oppressed, but now they were
allowed to fight back as in Madina, Munawwara. Right, so
fighting jihad, Gita, etc. Okay.
There's some that claim that there's another verse, which is
wholesale, alpha mobile or fewer, I read the I ninja healing,
take on pardoning, like, adopt the position of pardoning and
forgiving, and command, according to that which is decent, and just
ignore the ignorant ones. Some claim have claimed in the past
that this abrogated the obligation of jihad, which obviously is not
like that at all, I mean, the overwhelming majority do not agree
with that. Right? So
that goes to show that, you know, there can be some mistakes in this
that people have made, and just wrong assumptions and so on.
That's why it's important to understand these things. Now. Just
a few other points that I'd like to mention. Before we finish off.
There is the verse that we, that we discussed earlier, there is
actually a lot of difference of opinion about that as to whether
or not a lot of different the majority man answer him in it or
not see how not to hate him in homophobia, that that verse
clearly is talking about the nursing process. However, there is
a difference of opinion among some scholars that that verse has
actually got nothing to do with us, the NUS discuss there is
actually pneus of a religion, not within religion. And they saying
that it makes some sense, but that's not what the majority have
taken. They're actually saying that that is the verse which says,
to the, to the Jews, that because they complained that, you know,
and their challenge was that their religion was still effective. So,
what is this new religion and so on. So Allah subhanaw taala is
saying that man and Sakmann ayat in now I have here does not refer
to a verse, it can refer to a tradition and a system and a sign
from Allah. So
a religion can be an ayah, in that sense. So Allah is saying we can
cancel religions. And but when we do, we're not going to leave
people just like that we will actually bring them a superior
religion. So this is more of a I would say, in the last 100 years.
I don't know of any scholar who took this opinion before that last
100 years. There's some scholars primarily, I think, from Egypt,
Sheikh Abdullah daraz I think Mufti Muhammad, Abdul, Rashid
Rida, etc, who have gone with this opinion. And
it's an interesting idea. It's an interesting idea. Now, that does
not mean that they deny us, okay, that does not mean they deny us.
The overwhelming majority do not deny us.
There are other verses that, that provide the benefit of NASA
anyway. So, so while these people have said that the interpretation
of this verse which everybody else classically has been using, you
know, to say that we don't make a you know, we don't cancel a verse,
or we don't make it forgiven, except that we, you know, will
bring the light of it or better than it, they think that this
actually refers to the religious aspect and not this does not refer
to inside the religion. Right. So
which verse Then, is talking about the abrogation so again, they
don't deny in the nuskin the Quran at all, they just say that this is
not the verse for it the other way
is in sort of null verse 101 and 102 where Allah subhanaw taala
says what either but the
Mecca and wala who are alum will be ma uns ZIL Corlew in
Mukhtar bell exaro, whom layer and the moon coldness Zilla who Rohan
could you see me Rob Big Bill happy to use a beetle arena man
who don't push rod in Muslimeen very interesting. And this one
there can be no doubt that this is talking about not everybody agrees
on this one. Whenever we change a verse, you see, because
the Jews and others they were saying that what is wrong with
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam that, first he says this
and then he cancels it. And he says this, For example, the Qibla
face towards Jerusalem and then he said face towards Makkah, that
really hurt them a lot like why is he facing towards Makkah, right
should have carried on to Jews who gave them some kind of validation.
And now that was canceled, but even lots of other things.
Because, remember, Islam had to progressively and slowly slowly
take people through. So that's why this nuskin abrogation would
happen. We don't have to worry about it today. Because mashallah,
it's all been pointed out to us that this verse, the ruling of it
is not applicable anymore. This is the verse that you need a ruling
from and so on. Anyway, so, look at this. Allah says in this verse
of Surah, Nahal, verse 101, whenever we either but then I,
whenever we change a verse, right, in place of another verse,
Allah subhana, WA, tada is absolutely aware, like fully
aware, most aware of what he reveals. This is not some mistake,
this is not a mistake going on. This is not some kind of haphazard
trial. And, you know, let's check this out. If this works. And if
that doesn't work, then we'll do this. No, Allah knows exactly what
he's doing. He's just taking people through the stages. They
say that you're just a fabricator to the booksellers and they say
you're just fabricating. In fact, the majority of us just don't know
Allah system, right? They don't know. So say to them, that this is
the holy spirit that brings the verses down from your LORD with
absolute truth and veracity. So that he can make firm those who
believe and it is a guidance and it is also glad tiding for the
muslimeen so this verse, there's no doubt about it at all. Right?
There's no doubt about this verse definitely is the case.
To give you a few examples, we've got some minutes, I thought we'd
run out of time, but Hamdulillah we have a few minutes to give you
now some examples of Naskh inverses. I've given you some I'll
give you some more. Allah subhanaw taala first encircle Sr,
verse 110, the ruling was what tells you how to be Salah Tikka
Allah to have it be her. Don't in your Salah, don't read too loud,
and don't, you know,
read too low, keep it in between. Now, Allah subhanaw taala in
certain hedgerow says, First dark Bhima top model, proclaim aloud
what you have been commanded. So the idea there is that initially,
the Dawa was a clandestine that well, it was concealed. It was
just from
ear to ear. Right. And there was an open proclamation from this
verse, This became known opened our right and open invitation.
This is what some say that there's enough here, but there's actually
no notice.
This was this. This is actually an example of a mistake, that there's
actually no necessity to actually about two different things. Right?
This is about two different things. It's important that the
only way to check and tell Innes is that it has to be something
either revealed or clearly stated in the verse. For example, I'll
give you an example.
Allah subhanaw taala says in Surah, Al Anfal, verse 66, that I
accorded and a half of Allah, one Kumar, Lima and Nephi come Darfur,
first the command was one to 10 and now, Allah saying, Now we,
Allah subhanaw taala has made it later on you and he knows that you
have weakness. So if you have 100 steadfast people, they will be
able to overcome 200 people, and if you have 1000, they will be
able to dominate 2000 With the permission of Allah subhanaw taala
and Allah is with the steadfast and the perseverance.
Right. Another one is, if the if the Sahaba have all agreed that
there's an issue or that there's an issue and a consensus that
there's enough here, then that would be another way that NUS
would be established as well. Now, another aspect here is that some
people have confused pneus with
some people have can confuse pneus and abrogation with
particularization. Sometimes the command is a general command. And
then after that something is
prohibited after that, or one aspect of it is specified. For
example, the example I've given you at least twice now, about
women, women's waiting period fella to Kuru. Now that has the
scope of both. Now, if anybody claims that, you know the Hadith,
there's a hadith, which indicates that actually is the menstruation
that's meant here. That's cancelled out the other portion.
No, that's not really enough. That's just the axes that we're
specifying which of the two possibilities, that's not nice. So
don't get confused with that beingness. Right.
These are some of the other verses in Surah Al Baqarah, Allah
subhanho wa Taala says katiba Alikum, either haidara Haida como
tu in Taraka, hi, Iranian was a year to really worry, they enable
a carabin when one of you are close to death, and if you're
going to be leaving some wealth, then it is necessary for you to
write to write a will. So it was binding and wajib to write a will
write regarding your assets. Now today, it's a good thing. It's a
sunnah, and it's recommended to do so but it's not binding anymore.
The reason is that that was
that was abrogated, they say, by the Hadith, which is La wasI. Yet
anyway, anything you can't have, was easier for people who are
going to inherit because the other verse you see Kamala who Viola
decom abrogated this as well, that that is
the Quran saying that Allah tells you, all of the shares that your
inheritance are to receive, there is no longer need for you to write
down. In fact, you can't do that anymore, you can't say that my mom
should get half because she's only do one six, for example, or that
my, my son should get you know, half even though he's only do
half, you know, he's only do whatever will be remaining after
the father, mother and then this end and the daughter will get. So
these are some of the other examples. Right? You see, this is
actually a very good example of it. Then after that.
Yeah, I think that's enough. I think that's enough of an examples
for for this.
So just talk a lot here. Alhamdulillah our
discussion on the science of the Quran is moving forward Al
Hamdulillah. We've covered quite a bit there's some very important
discussions that still remain about how the Quran was gathered
the seven hour off the edges of the Quran really, really,
mashallah really, really interesting discussions that we
will be Inshallah, moving into, from tomorrow. Inshallah, we'll be
moving on from tomorrow. So, today, may Allah subhanaw taala
bless you all. And
we will see you again insha Allah tomorrow, may Allah subhanho wa
Taala bless your Ramadan's and Allah except from all of us
working with that one and it hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen Jazak Allah
