Bismillah AR Rahman and Rahim after the chapter 29, which we
covered last week, we covered chapter 28. And 2929 was about the
bowl of Rasulullah sallallahu. Sunday he had one bowl that was
made of wood, but he had,
he had been properly split, so it had been fixed.
We nowadays you never see a fixed bowl, we probably don't have a
single fixed bone in ours, once it gets a bit of a chip here and
there, we replace it.
Things have become so much more disposable as such, even though
they may have something solid, we just put so much in recycling. The
next chapter is chapter 30. Bible my geography is fit for quixote
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam, this chapter is on
describing the fruits that are sort of Lasala Lord Psalm eight.
So we finished with the food and the bowl and the way the price
allows him to set and everything related to eating, which was quite
a few different things that were related. Now we speak about the
types of fruits fruits would be eaten, sometimes with food
sometimes maybe other than with a meal. So let's read the few Hadith
that are in this chapter is similar here Rahmani Raheem,

Arabic by Imam Tirmidhi to for the chapter heading is safer to fucky
fucky the word faqeer. According to rob us for honey, who's one of
the lexicographers is one of the lexicographers, he says phakisa
refers to all types of fruits. Some say that it refers to all
types of fruits except to so every fruit can be referred to as
phakisa in Arabic, except tomorrow and Roman dates and the
pomegranates. Why, for they say one is for a textual reason. That
means that when Allah subhanaw taala use the word factor in the
Quran, he said, fie, Fie, fie, Hema for Kia tone, one a holen
warum in these two paradises that this other group of people will
get from Indonesia, imagine that answer to ramen, Allah subhanaw
taala says and in the two will be fruits faqeer and knuffel and
ramen and dates and palms, and pomegranate. So those two are
included in already in fruits they assumed to be fruits already, so
why separate them? So they're saying that maybe they're
separated for a reason because they don't necessarily come in the
fruit because dates can we use this a staple diet for some people
as it was in an
The time, the time. And Roman pomegranate is also used as
medicine. So they're not purely fruit according to that
perspective, another opinion would be that, although they do come
under fruit, but a lot of times you mentioned the general word.
And then you mentioned the specific ones for a particular
reason, because they stand out, are they the most important of
them. So it could be both opinions that I mentioned. Generally,
though, the word faqeer comes from de facto, from de facto.
and
de facto, which is different from fic. That's where the big gulf,
which means understanding, and thick, with a small calf, which
this word can come from, that means to
anything that is eaten for enjoyment, and not eaten as a not
eaten as a substantive food. So which has not eaten as a meal, for
example, but eaten just as a refreshment, as an additional
delicacy as something just In addition, not food, proper food,
and something which is not used as medicine. So anything it'd be ice
cream, for example, would be a factor in that sense. Fruits would
be a factor, and anything else, some, some nice chocolates or
something. That would be fat. Yeah. Some people eat crisp as a
staple diet, there was a report I saw once that there's this woman
who has literally lived on monstermunch, you know, out of all
crisps, as we call them here. You know, monstermunch she eats I
don't know how many packets a day. And that's it? How'd you get your
on? I mean, it must be something a little while. But yeah, heats
monster much. That's why it's called Masan. NIF then. So the
first Hadith in this chapter is Hadith number 207. That actually
reminds me that you know, when we're younger, or when you become
parents, you'll realize this, parents keep telling you don't do
this, don't do that. Don't do this, don't eat it this way. Make
sure you eat your food. All of these things, although they sound
like a big nag, right? When you're young, there's a benefit for them,
there's a benefit that comes out of them. This is the nurturing
process. And if parents don't say that, then sometimes children grow
up with extreme ideas about many of these things, because then they
just become used to it. For example, a friend of mine, Maulana
who works in a prison, he said that it was one guy that was in
there for stealing. And, essentially, he said that I blame
my mother for getting me into this place. Like, what's what did your
mother do? How did she get you into displace? So when I was
young, I used to, I used to pick up things and take it. And she
never used to say anything to me. We used to go to relative's
houses, and I'd want to take a car small car. So I take it sometimes
just hiding and sometimes just taking like that. And you know,
when you're when you go to somebody's house, and some kid is
going to take it, or rather at your house, somebody comes and
they want to take a toy, you normally just say okay, okay, take
it take it. So you say that sometimes my cousin or whoever it
may be maybe crying his head off. He's taking my concern, it'd be a
big remote control cars, or I just want to pick it up and taking my
mom's not saying anything. And my uncle or whoever it is, or anybody
whose house we've gone to the kid is crying his head off. But the
parent is saying Don't worry, it's okay. It's okay. Let him take it.
So slowly, as I started taking, I started taking things from school,
I started picking up things from the shop I used to go into
sometimes these, the stores where they used to have these, these
money boxes where people put in donations, and I used to run in,
grab one and run out. And then after that my sister became of age
to go to school and she wants to you know, my mom wanted me to take
her to school, but I said, I didn't want to take her to school,
because then you know, I can't do my stuff on the way and it's
become quite natural to do it. Right. So then I got my sister
into that, okay, you wait here and as soon as I come run, and we have
to both run. So then
we used to just, you know, I used to go and grab it go out. He
didn't know about it. But there used to just run started taking
all sorts of different things I used to take people from take
people's things from their pocket wallets. And then I used to just
throw that one wallet here one wallet, they used to steal
wallets. It just became bigger and bigger and bigger.
And one day I was in the market with my mum in my normal clothes
normally or doing my school clothes, I thought they would
recognize me but one of the Sainsbury's or whatever the local
place where I used to steal from the gods saw me, call the police,
etc, etc. And eventually, in one day, he ended up in prison. So he
blamed his mom for it. And the whole reason is no discipline, no
discipline. Another thing he told me that the majority of people
that he seen inside there from seeing one of the most Ricky's had
lots of stories is because he's a chaplain in a prison. He knows
lots of stories from the Muslim inmates. He says one of the
biggest problems one of the most commonly reoccurring themes in all
of them is single parents. That's one of the most recurring themes
in all of them is a single parent problem. No father figure father
figures makes a difference. Because you know that sometimes
the mother is just too gentle just can't handle it just the just
emotionally weaker. Half of the you know of the parent unit. So
that's, it says this is recurring theme of this
That's why parents who have problems and thinking are
splitting up and for their children, they could even consider
sustained together because it makes a difference. And once
parents are separated, then what happens is they start what each
one is trying to win the children. So they start to do things which
are detrimental for them. Just so many stories, just this week, I
had a counseling session with couples similar kind of thing,
going to the other side, and they got freedom. And here it's
difficult. So now they want to just, you know, it's each side
pitting against the other at the detriment of the child. So it's
something that we need to look into and do something about
because it's ending up it's having people eventually end up in jail
for this is a this is a recurring thing I saw. There were other
reasons, obviously. But this was one of the big reason. Then
anyway, let's get back to the fruits here.
So the first Hadith here is related from Abdullah Abdullah
Jaffa to the Allah one. He says, call a cannon Wu sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam, kulula peth be Robbie,
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam used to eat the third. The
third is a type of cucumber.
So used to like to eat cucumber. Now, whether they were the small
ones, or the large ones, I mean, it's a type that was probably
available. So he used to eat cucumber with fresh dates rooted
with fresh dates. Now that's going to be the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi salam, when he ate things, he ate it in a balance. And this
is a balanced way of eating fruit, cucumber, with dates, fresh dates,
and the reason is that cucumber is supposed to have a cooling effect
while the date is supposed to have hot effects. So that is, that was
a balanced way. Now, a lot of this stuff, some of us may say that,
well, we eat lots of data, we eat lots of cucumber, whatever,
nothing happens to us. In the diet that we have nowadays, which is
very far from being of a pure diet. I mean, who can say here
that they eat a pure diet? What I mean by pure diet, is that
everything they eat is absolutely natural. They know exactly what
they're eating. Because much of what we eat, I mean, if you just
think back what we ate today, right? If you've had any form of
processed food, anything that's manufactured, right, then most
likely, it's going to have some preservative, some chemical,
something in there, which we don't know about meaning it's not pure.
It's It's whatever, it's something else, that there could be many
different effects of these things. So really, it's very difficult. We
don't even know what's going to affect us in what way that's why
natural kind of medicines are very, they don't they're not
strong enough for us anymore. That's why we have to resort to
chemically produce medicines, because that's really what cuts
it. Because it's what where we live, but really pure. And so when
the prophets Allah ism is like this, he knows exactly what's
going on. I can't have any more of this I can, there's a balance,
because it's all natural. The net body is natural. It's all organic
in that sense. So it's an absolute organic food, you know, in and
organic diet. And when I say organic, I don't mean certified
organic. I'm talking about organic and generically speaking, you
know, just something that's absolutely natural. So that he
used to eat these two things together. And it says he used to
eat the pizza Bureau top. So what does that mean? Does that mean the
primary thing was the cucumber? So the cucumber was eaten with the
dates, as though the it almost seems to indicate that the
cucumber was the primary thing and the dates were with it in the way
it's been said in Arabic. But that's generally the way it's it
said. But Toblerone has related another Hadith from again from
Abdullah Hebrew Jaffa, the same Hadith he said right off the
Yemeni NWSL Allah Samantha on fishy Marley EuroTop Whoo, yeah,
comienza Mara, Mara Mara, in that version, it says, I saw in the, in
the right hand of Rasulullah sallallahu sallam, he had a
cucumber. And in his left, he had the dates, and he was eating from
this and then he was eating from that. And what that would mean is
that he was first taking from there then taking from there, not
that he was eating from his left hand as well. But meaning he had
the two sides he was eating this sometimes and he was eating from
this sometimes what this tells us though, another thing this tells
us aside from the balancing in the types of meals that we should
have, what Imam know he relates, what he infers from this is that
it's permissible to eat two types of foods. Now I know that to say
that for us to eat two types of separate dishes that are each made
up of various mixture of different types of foods, you know,
different types of ingredients to take that from cucumber and dates
seems very far fetched. Cucumber and dates, I mean, in our salad,
we got more than that, right? Those who know how to make salad,
not the Gujarati salad and a few cucumbers, a few carrots and you
know just kind of put them to the
aside, he doesn't know how to make salad and if you actually give him
any decent salad they think that's rabbit food.
You know, a chemical okay, what is that? I think people are changing
nowadays anyway, but
a salad is actually very good. I mean, what the Imam Allah says is
that you should have vegetables, it's, it's actually considered to
be very blessed to have to have vegetables like that. But anyway,
the prophets of Allah, Psalm eight, these two things that you
must know he says that this proves that you can have two types of
meals or sorry, two types of food at once, in fact, or more than
that, which just proves it. And there's no interlock between the
aroma about its permissibility wherever it is related from some
of the self meaning from some of the predecessors, that seems to
indicate that it's mcru, or something of that nature to have
more than one food at one time. Because there's a there's an
incident related between Amara, the Allahu Allah and Salmaan will
force you to the Allah one or the Allah one who is always looking to
better himself. So what he used to do is used to go to different
people that he felt was sincere and ask them, you know, tell me
something about myself. So he said, to Salman to the Allahu
Allah, I want you to be honest, right? criticize me like telling
me what I've got what you've seen me. So look, I can't think of
anything except the only thing I can think of is that you've got
two garments, right? So you don't just have one garment. But you've
got two suits, you know, two garments, two different types. And
you have sometimes two different things at mealtime. Now that was
at the level you were speaking, not that he was haram or anything
is well, that look, you know, we're both trying to compete to
get to Paradise, the highest paradise. So I think that this is
something you're taking too much. And I can tell you from the
narrations that you see afterwards about OH MY GOD, ALLAH and he
definitely took that nasiha to heart. He said, he asked him, Is
there anything else? And he said, No, there's nothing else. He said,
Well, as far as these two things are concerned, sorted, you don't
have to worry about them anymore. But if there's anything else, let
me know. So that was at that level, we must understand from
that day, it's not permissible for us to do that. Right? That we must
think that if you've got two foods at the table, then it's haram or
something like that. So yeah, that is completely fine. What then
those things do refer to generally if there is some kind of warning
against having more than one meal or whatever is then that you
shouldn't have a habit of doing so. Which means that if you're one
day somewhere and imagine if you go to I mean, tell me something,
have you ever been to a food invitation where they've only
cooked one dish? If they do you probably think what's wrong with
these guys? Can the wife Cook was she angry on that day or
something? Seriously, think about if you went to somebody's house to
eat, and all there was was one dish just like one, you know, roti
and you know, some bread and some meat dish or a chicken dish or
rice or a biryani or dark shower or whatever it is, if there was
just one day she would say, Well, you just think you might not say
anything, but you'll just think it's weird. In fact, some people
if they if they don't see proper meat and they just see chicken,
they're going to think well don't these guys have money that they
can buy meat because meat is more expensive than chicken? I can
remember one time I went to somebody's house and this is in
South Africa and you know, mashallah he's a really Sufi kind
of
scholar and invited me to his house. So clearly he was inviting
me to his house. And we went there and it was some kind of a peace
and something peace and maybe it was mincemeat or something like it
was just the one simple dish. I had to respect him for it, you
know, obviously shaytan brings in like why how when what to you
know, but at the end of the day, you have to respect him that he
was able he did that and that must be his days. Again, there's
nothing wrong with have five things you know, to offer five
things to your guests. In fact, it's they say it's encouraged to
offer your guests it's all halali Say, as much as you want to cook
in fact, the Illumina Hello you right so if you're in a cook extra
just for the bulk of it, even though you know it's not all going
to be eaten, but to then continue that baraka for the rest of your
week or the rest of your days that's also fine. So you're gonna
cook extra put it out in front of the guests they don't need it,
that's fine they don't eat the whole thing that's fine. You use
it for the rest there will be Baraka in that food. So there's
there's nothing wrong with doing that from the host site anyway.
But if you become so used to it that you go to a wedding, right?
And they only have one dish and they don't have a status for
example, and they don't have a dessert and they don't have a cake
then you feel bad about it. You start talking like what's wrong
with you guys you know, that's that's where the problem comes
about. If it's simple martial if it comes to eat, enjoy and if it
doesn't, we'll eat and enjoy still, that's what it's all about.
Is related from a Buddha wouldn't even imagine from Abdullah Hypno
booster salami Radi Allahu and he says once the soul of Lhasa Lawson
came to visit us and we put forward to him butter and dates
zuiden we're Tamron Zoop then is butter and zoom that one is cream.
So something made out of milk it was either butter or cream most
likely was butter that is referring to and and dates and he
used to like butter and dates you know sometimes it makes in Ramadan
you fry the dates in butter, but I'm not sure how this was maybe
this was separate because it didn't say was fried has pieces of
butter. Right? It didn't have to look like anchor but it could have
been white but
All right, so it doesn't have to be anger butter or something like
that. So
used to like it again the same thing. The benefit of butter and
dates is that it's really it's healthy to for your body not if
you're actually having a really over the obese diet already then
is bad for you. But if you look at the general diet of Rasulullah
sallallahu, alayhi wasallam then for him to have butter and data
sometimes Subhanallah is absolutely healthy for the for
him, but that would be very unhealthy for us because
mashallah, we have I'm talking about myself at least I'm not sure
about the rest of you. But you know, I'm saying
but those kinds of things were were for the benefit of that was
that it was actually it's a fattening food to eat to get some
energy from now, that's what it is. It's fat. Butter is fat, and
the dates have lots of protein and energy in it.
That's why it's related from any blue merger from actually the hola
Juan has she said that when she got married, she was very small.
When she was six years old, she was very small. And she went to
live with Rasul Allah was only when she was nine. But it's she
says that my my mother to prepare me right so that I was old enough
I was big enough to be with my husband as such. She used to feed
me lists. She used to feed me ro tub and Katha which means this
cucumber and dates cucumber and dates so I became mashallah I
became for some some into that means I became fat but obviously
the mean fat it means I became big enough you know, I became a
decently What do you call it with a decent amount of flesh as such
otherwise I was very thin gas any Simoni was the perfect amount. The
next hadith is related which is Hadith number 208. It's related
from Ottawa, from his father Zubaydah, the Allah one from our
Aisha Radi Allahu Allah, that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam Kenny, I couldn't be.
In another version it says, Toby, it just means BT. And Bt refers to
a melon, specifically a watermelon, but it could be any
type of melon Herb was a herb uza. in Farsi in Persian, that's a
watermelon. And you've got big teeth, so it could be any melon,
yellow, green, and there's all these other colored melons as
well. Otherwise, it could be watermelon. He used to use with
the root of again, dates with this Melon Melon is supposed to be
Havoc supposed to have a cooling effect, just like cucumber. And he
used to actually now you know until now it seems like this is
something that obviously is choosing to have and we're saying
it's because of this reason. But in this case, in this hadith, he
actually said yes, zero heart Rojava or user will Harada be
birdie Harada or bajada be Bihar Bihari Harada. Right. We heard we
heard that the other one is saying that the heat of this will be
broken by the sorry, yes, the heat, the heat of this will be
broken by the coolness of this. And the coolness of this will be
eliminated by the heat of this. So he's saying that he's doing this
particularly from a B perspective, a medical perspective as such,
from a health perspective, a diet perspective. And
that means that this most likely this melon that he's speaking
about one of the commentators say it's most likely referring to the
green melon, because that has
that that has the that's the most cooling one. The green one is the
most cooling one. And that would then be balanced by the rooftop.
Otherwise it could also be the yellow one, which is hotter. So
it's it's hotter than the green one. But it's still it's still
cooler than the date so it's still cooler than the date because it's
sweeter, sweeter things have more heat as such. That's why in the
next Hadith, which is Hadith number 209. It's related from NSO
the analysis of nomadic Radi Allahu, and he says right at
rasool Allah He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Yajima will be in a
horrible war rooftop, I saw Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam
combine between the watermelon and the root of and the dates. Now
here, it's possible that the holebas that is referred to here
the melon that's referred to here could be the yellowish one. So
this won't be then water and well actually you can get yellow
watermelons as well. Right? We normally see here the red
watermelons because we see them coming from the Greek or the the
Greek and the Turkish ones, but, and some Moroccan ones, but you
can actually have I've seen a yellow watermelon. I've actually
had a yellow watermelon says well, what what well are the Lumia team
manager who it's the one which is not fully ripe yet because that
has a lot of coolness to it. But you only see reports from Jabra
the Allahu under the Prophet sallallahu I do some Candiac
because yeah, cool Herb was brought up. Were you
Kulu Homer olatuja ban he used to eat the melon with the dates and
he used to say that these are the two ought to ban the two most
excellent things. So he called those two the most excellent
things which would mean that excellent foods. But he said this
for another two foods as well which is related by Muhammad, the
prophets Allah some said water and dates are the two most excellent
things.
So they're both very excellent things to have. The next Hadith
Hadith number 210 is related from Asha to the Allahu anha. She says
that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam used to eat batik
bareroot OB that's very similar to what we relate what we saw before
history, the melon with the dates. Now here, the author is just
trying to say that this hadith has been related from many, many
different ways. As you saw before, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, it said he had the two that was related from Arusha to
the Allahu anha as well with a slightly different chain. And then
you had another narration you had another narration as well,
horribles and rolltop is just to show that many different people
have related this which means that you must have had this kind of
combination many different times. However Allama Iraqi he comments
he says that Imam Timothy has related this but he hasn't really
mentioned in his main collection his German and in this Shama in
the way you're sort of Lhasa Lhasa made the two when he ate the two
but did he put them together? Did he does first and did he this did
he How exactly did he join the two and eat them? How did he combine
between the two? We don't know that meaning? Did he take one bite
from this and then one bite from this or did he just put the two
together and put them in his mouth at the same time? We don't know
that Yeah. In fact in a narration it's as we probably saw as well.
He ate from this one time he ate from this one time it probably
indicates a hit them separately so you don't put them together in
your mouth you eat this and then you eat this you eat this and you
eat this. It's just like a dish of mixed fruit you eat some from here
some from here. Imam top Iranian this is interesting when you
bumped up Ronnie relates from YBNL Ibis of the Allah one, that the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam Gani at Kalinina hauraton and
Herat. You call to Herat earn good Ouattara, who is a water and who
Fifi he's a mayor who have the WHO way where you have read your or
Juna, who already aminu. And if anybody is like it likes to eat
grapes like that, but who likes to eat grapes, this is grapes. It's
not Amber. So the Allahu Anhu relates that Rasul Allah some use
to eat grapes, how rotten by stripping them off the stem.
Now that can be done in two ways. I checked up the dictionary in
this in the lexicon, it says that this word heart and it refers to
two ways of doing it. So you've got the you've got the stem,
you've got the grapes on the bunch right on each of the stems little
stems they have so you know what you could do is you take your fit
your your hand, you make your fingers into a circle and you kind
of
bring them down the stock and all the grapes fall off and then you
eat them. The other way is that you take a small stem with about
four or 534 grapes on it whatever put in your mouth and then you
pull the stem out and the grapes stay in your mouth so that's how
the Brazil awesome used to eat that so there's nothing wrong with
doing that. You know some people get very picky and it's a no no
you should eat one by one or something like that. Well the
voice alone was quite casual industry card. We learned In
another Hadith that he's he was standing up there are bunches of
dates that were hung on the ceiling and bursa Rossum started
eating from the heatall alira Do not use it don't use it is not
good for you just become well you've just come out of you know
being sick so you can eat you should eat so he sat down and
practice a lot and kept eating from the dates that were standing
up. So a snack like that fruit or something like that can be eaten
standing up. So we are very proud of you can't even eat a date to
standing up you should sit down and eat right so this occasion but
yes a meal then you don't stand around like idiots moving around
in a party you know with a plate dancing and eating that's kind of
silly right? So this hadith is related by Toblerone for him now
are busted and that's the way the prophets Allah made from them
either by with his fingers or with his mouth pulling them off the
stem and putting the stem out Hadith number 211 is related from
Abu Huraira to the Allah one he says that gun a nurse can a nurse
now this is something which none of us really have any much of a
fruit tree. But if you do have a fruit tree I mean in England would
what can grow in your yard? apples, pears, plums what else fix
seriously? Yeah, tomatoes, tomatoes, mint you know that kind
of stuff? Some places South Africa was very good you could even
California apricot, Mashallah. And there was this May Allah subhanaw
taala reward that couple and then they started this apricot tree
some proper nice organic apricot seeds have a huge amount just come
take you know, as much as you want. So this is the way that
people did with with their fruits. The
You know, because fruits come in season right? So the first of the
fruits of the season, this is the way they dealt with them. And I
remember once I was shaking did the same thing in dark room up
north, when we had the first of the, they grew something and the
gardener he brought in the fruits and he did exactly as a sort of
loss of Allah some did. So what is related from Abu Huraira the
Allahu Andika nurse either ro a Willa thumri jell o de la
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, when they saw the first of
the, their crop of fruits to appear. So when the first of the
fruits appeared, they would bring it to Rasulullah sallallahu
radiosensitive pick it and quickly bring it to Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi wasallam this meant, you know the the fresh fruits
obviously they would bring it and why would they bring it to
Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam obviously for baraka for blessing
and out of respect for him to respect him and that you know, he
should get the first of our fruits the aroma the commentator mentions
that obviously after that the whole of his his representative
which means the aroma and the only people could do the same thing
with them and that's that's why I mentioned the garden did this with
our with our principal for either a Honda who Rasulullah sallallahu
ala some called now the price a lesson would take it and he said
and he would say he would say Allahumma barik la Nafi thi Medina
so firstly he would give a dua he wouldn't eat it. You'd first give
a dua Oh ALLAH Burdick Luna Fifi Medina bless us in our fruits How
do you bless How do you have blessing and fruits by having more
by getting a good crop and by their protection because once
disease and some pestilence hits crop sometimes you can do so much
is destroyed.
Well, birdie, Glenna fee Medina Tina and give us baraka and
blessing in our city in our city give us a blessing how? By an
abundance of sustenance so people can eat and what the worm we had
earlier and for such systems to continue for a long time.
And another Baraka is in general, to make sure that the deen and
features of the Dean continue to remain manifest and clear, and
people can see them. That's why the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said that a prayer in this Masjid is superior to 1000 Salat
in other masajid and but all these kinds of Baraka Now, the thing is
that there have been times in Madina Munawwara when things
weren't as rosy as before. So if I'm called to be he gives an
answer. He says that when the poster was made this door, he was
obviously referring to it, referring to Baraka at his time,
he doesn't have to be intending forever. However, others have
considered this to be not a very good answer. But the better answer
is that because during the time of the whole effort as well, Medina
became even more than it was during the time of Rasulullah,
sallAllahu anism, in terms of wealth, in terms of abundance, in
terms of supply, because you literally had things that were
coming from around the world, from the major empires, the Roman and
the Persian empires, as they were being conquered, their riches were
coming and being given to, given to the holidays are given to the
leafs from the methodical or from the Eastern, the west of the
lands. And this continues today, when you go to Madina Munawwara
you can literally get whatever you want, whatever you want. And now
the people have taken that another step. And you can even get all the
fashion from the world as well. Now, you know, before you could
get the Islamic goods from around the world, now you can get the
fashion from around the world. You know whether you want Italian
fashion, French fashion, English, fashion, American fashion, in all
of those moles, so you can get everything now. Now this doesn't
mean that sometimes there's going to be difficulty Baraka doesn't
mean that you're never going to have difficulty you can have
Baraka, but there can be times when there will be difficulty as
there has been difficulty at some time or the other. Another meaning
is that when the promise was made to offer Baraka, he means that
even a small amount will suffice for many people down there. And if
you look at the amount of people that come there, and Subhanallah,
they're able to still do business. If you look at the food products
in the food, the milk, the bread and things like that. You don't
pay much for them, because it's subsidized. But anyway, it's that
small amount will suffice for a lot of people. So that's another
dua he made to do so he said, Oh Allah bless us in our fruits bless
us in our city. Number three Auberry Klonowski Sardina bless us
in our larger measure, and robotic laffy Medina and bless us in our
smaller measure. So the saw and the mud were certain types of
containers a volume of a certain volume that they used to sell
things in. So the saw is for moods, it's for of the mood
measures. When mood is is a medium, hand full. So you've got
two hands together. So as much as comes in a scoop like that, of
somebody with medium size hands, that is called
The mood. So four times that would be a salt. And then they would
make a vessel, a cup like that. So our shaker actually had one made
to that size. And
things used to be measured with that. So it became a kind of
standard kind of size to sell that they're selling things in volumes.
So the prophets, Allah made baraka for that. I remember one of our
shakes, he said that they shouldn't have changed from the
salt and the mood to the kilograms and the grounds. Because the
products are made specific to offer the moods in the site.
That's what they used to. They used to calculate and sell things
by until the last you know, just until about maybe 70 100 years
ago, maybe until until even 50 or 60 years ago, but they changed it
recently to standardize it. That's kind of strange, because to tell
the truth in England, we've changed to the kilograms and about
10 years ago, in America, it's still ounces, can you believe it,
and still miles on the road and kill as it is in England, still on
the road, but even in measurements, it's still ounces,
and it's still inches, right? And in England? I think we're kind of
into centimeters, kind of inches and centimeters kind of both work
right now. Right? Even though we've changed the whole world,
right and standardized on this metric system. But we've
definitely gone on to kilograms in isn't already ounces in American
courts and ounces and
liters still. But some, some may say, Well, this was talk talking
about measure in general. And we can only hope that that's the case
that is to get the baraka, but he the province of Assam specifically
said we're vertical and if you sign up or vertical enough, you
Medina give us Baraka in our saw and our mood in these two
measures. So you might know me he what, what does he mean by having
Baraka in these two measures because they're just a volume of
an amount of something. So he says that it just refers to whatever is
then sold by volume in that whether that be some kind of crops
or fruit or anything else, then Allah subhanaw taala give baraka
in that so essentially give Barack in the trade and the business
that's taking place in the sustenance in the food products
and people's food products that they're selling to each other. If
natural Ashkelon he says that anybody who is brought the first
of the fruits of the season, then it's mostly hard for them to
recite this dua up to here, because the DUA continued, but we
won't be able to make the same dua because it was very specific to
Madina, Munawwara, maca, maca, Rama, but at least up to the we
could make a DUA, the next part of the DUA the prophets Allah Samson
Allahumma Ibrahima AB Dukkha Ibrahima, Abdu kava hollybrook O
Allah Ibrahim Ali Salam is your servant and your very close heart,
friend, and when a be you and he's your prophet, so he's your
servant. He's your very close intimate friend. And he's your
prophets. Were in the abductor whenever you and I'm also your
servant and your prophet. So he's building a case with Allah
subhanaw taala we're in the hood that actually Maka he may do all
for you from Africa. What's the DUA as I mentioned in the Quran,
Allah who made me a skin to Robin in the skin to me in theory Yachty
be wedding lady these are in in the vertical Muharram Robina
leukaemias salata federal editor Mina necesita, we era him was
zuccon Menoth Emirati La La homage Quran. Oh my Lord, I have made my
descendants my family. I have made them reside in this valley that
doesn't have any crops. It doesn't have any vegetation doesn't have
any plants or anything like that. By your house, by your sanctified
your honored house, oh our Lord. Why so that they could establish
Salah. So turn the hearts of the people towards them? Turn the
hearts of the bit. No, this is a barren piece of land. Nobody
living there. No crops. No nothing. Just about a water supply
the zamzam but turn the hearts of the people towards it so that they
go there what Zaku Mina Thammarat desert but give them from the
fruits give them abundantly from the fruits la Allahu yesh Quran so
that they can be thankful Allah subhanho wa Taala accepted that
DUA and since then, over the years, the fruits have been coming
there, whether they've been imported or whatever the case is,
right? There's lots of fruits in abundance down there. And that's
where you go there you find fruits of the world. You go harity You
can probably find the same thing. You go there, you go to bindles or
whatever it is, you find all sorts of fruits from around the world.
You have to pay a price but they're there if you want to buy
it. That is quite amazing for a very in which there was it was all
desert. So that's what the prophets Allah was me saying the
Ibrahim Ali Salam made the offer that police were in the other Oh
Khalil Medina, and I'm praying to you for Madina Munawwara for
yesterday for this city, be Mythili Medina can be here at
Makkah with everything that he has made to offer Maka to you. So all
of you probably mannerisms to Alpha Mocha, will Miss Liu Houma
and that much in addition, so I want to double that
though for Madina Munawwara other differences that Oberoi, Marissa
was making the offer a place that was already sanctified was already
an honorable place. Because it was supposed to cabbage would have
been there from before, but it was dilapidated. Nobody was staying
there and he rebuilt it. That place was already a sacred place
from before, which you probably Madison just went to enliven. So
if Brian Allison was making the offer a place that was already
sanctified, whereas Marcel Lawson was making the offer, a place that
was not sanctified from before yesterday, was not looked on. And
I had diseases and pestilence and things of that nature and Allah
subhanaw taala removed all of that and gave it the baraka day has now
which is superior mocha mocha Rama and Madina, Munawwara aroma have a
great difference of opinion about their so some say Mocha is
greater, some say Medina is greater, some say well,
Madina Munawwara is greater as a city but the Haram The Maccha, the
Kaaba area is more superior, some may say no, it's the place which
is surrounding the body of Rasulullah sallallahu in his
grave, that is the most superior place because it's next to the
most superior creation of Allah subhanaw taala. So there's a
difference of opinion there. Now, the prophets of Allah Assam has
got this fruit that somebody has brought to him from the from the
crops, the first of their crops, what does he do with it, he makes
the offer them makes them feel good, everybody benefits because
the person also makes a general to offer Madina Munawwara for the
city in general, and then he doesn't eat it, thumb, my head
through us a lot of money, then you're awful. Then he calls the
smallest of the children that he can see children around, cause the
smallest of them here, come here for your tea that he could
thermal, he gives them that fruit to eat. And I remember when I
first joined the room in 1985
this was this incident took place there where they had grown
something and the first time I can't remember what it was. And I
think is that okay, who's the youngest here and I just missed it
or somebody was younger than me by a few days or something. So I
missed it. So at that time, I was the youngest down there. But there
was another kid from Blackburn he got it. So he got to the the
smallest the first fruit.
Now youngest child, does he mean like any child that was there? Or
does it mean specifically the youngest of the Muslim children
that would that was there. It doesn't have to be that he called
the youngest child from his own family. It was anybody that the
Sahaba had brought their children long, whoever it was, he would
call them. And he would have that. Why? This is obviously another
form of his compassion to the young there as well. And not that
he wanted to eat himself and I must eat it myself. He gave it to
them he made dua that makes them happy. And then he gives this to
the youngest child. So the owners happy and then the child is happy
as well. And that's why there's another Hadith related by SUTI in
his jammies sorry that whenever the profits or loss would be
brought the first fruits of the season. He would. This is another
narration very interesting narration he would actually put it
on his eyes, then on his cheek, and then he would say, oh, hola,
hola, hola, comma, or eterna, a welder who Idina Hera who our
logistics you showed showing us the first of this this crop show
us the last of its crops are protected in between and then he
would give it to whoever whichever children were there so that was
just children generally would give it to them first. Even a Sunni has
related it from a boyhood era of the Allah one and top Ronnie has
related from Ignite Abbas of the Allah one. And the reason he would
give it to the young children is because they'd be more happy with
it. We're getting some fruit to eat. That'd be very happy. You
know, they can buy sweets in those days. And maybe you could some.
I'm sure you could. It wasn't mass factory or Cadbury's, but I'm sure
there was some sweets, some Kreutz which you could buy, but they
would, they would enjoy enjoy their fruits. And the other thing
is that there's a nice but this is the youngest of the fruits is the
first of them to come out. And these children are the youngest.
So it's a massive it's very appropriate. So he saying that
this is pure and these are these young pure souls that will give it
to them and this is better for our flock purposes so that he doesn't
that obviously lost him he's not a greedy person that's going to eat
it up for himself. He's giving it to someone else Subhanallah
right that's that was Hadith number 211 212. is
Hadith related by
Rob a year
bent more out with ignore Africa, this more out with ignore Africa
and wild Africa. They're the two people that killed the Bucha Hill
during the Battle of butter, if you remember
where you will on Saturday alone says that I had these two children
next to me in the Battle of butter and I was thinking what am I going
to do with two children next to me I'd rather have two big guys you
know, next to me, when one of them suddenly says to me that i Uncle?
am me. Hello, daddy for a budget. How do you know Pooja has it?
Yeah, what do you got to do with him? He says, Well, if I see him
today, then I'm going to attack him and one of us is going to have
to die. And as I was just
contemplating and reading from what he said that the other one
next to me he asked me the same question. So then afterwards
afterwards I actually saw a Bucha he said that seems to be boyfriend
to him and attacked him and then he was wounded on the floor and
even though Masuda the alone was there as well and one of them died
the other one the one cut off his cut off his head and are delighted
I'm assuming they were both saying to Abdullah and also to the Allah
one that it was me that killed him as me that killed him. So he said,
Okay, show us your swords because they went across a lot Islam. And
they were both trying to say, well, I killed him. I killed him.
So he said, Okay, show me a sword. So they were both red. So he said,
Okay, both of you kill them. So this is the Mao with one of them.
His daughter is relating this, she says that ma Dibner Afra. The
uncle, her uncle, meaning the other brother, she's the daughter
of one of them. So the his brother sent her to be cleaner and mean
Robin with a bunch of dates.
to
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, what are they he would
urine? Why they agilon Sorry, why they agilon Min pitha in Zubin, or
it could be Zubin that what this refers to is there was a bunch of
dates. And along with it, we also had some cucumber, some cucumber
that still had some of the stocks with them, or something attached
to them, just slight. And the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam
used to really like cucumber used to love cucumber for a day to
hoobie So she said she was young girl. And look at this, she was
younger, she must have been quite small, because those two are quite
young when they killed wujiang Anyway, so this was a daughter
from one of them. So you could imagine that she was probably not
very old young girl. She came to us with allah sallallahu is and
gave it and he used to really like it. Were in the WHO Helia to call
the Qatari human of Bahrain. All of these
ornaments this jewelry he had he had around him that just coming
from Bahrain. So she got the gave him this this cucumber and this
bunch of dates for Mullah Yoda who minha he literally filled his hand
up with this with some of this jewelry and she says he gave it to
me
just shows great generosity just grabbed a whole bunch of jewelry
Hey, take it in I gotta hm Samuel just grab you know you go then you
know the boss and he just grabbed a whole bunch just like the
indiscriminately and gives it to ego just shows he was. The next
hadith is similar that this robot here she refers she robot year.
Similar to Arabia. We don't see this name, maybe some there's
always people looking for new names. So I was listening probe a
year. So another one a bit difficult to say Roby bien de moi
with Ibni Afra.
She says that I came to Rasulullah salAllahu alayhi salam with a
bunch of dates. And also this, these cucumbers and he gave me a
handful of jewelry. Or she said gold. So it was either gold
jewelry, it was jewelry made of something else. It gave me a whole
handful of it. And that by that that ends our chapter. So what we
learned from here mostly was that Moore's Law of some seem to have
eaten a lot of cucumber and dates because dates were quite common to
balance them out there was cucumber, but then we also learned
that he had some butter and dates. And we also learn what else did we
what else did we learn about the he had
the melon so he had different types of melon whatever was
available. So these are all suna fruits. But there's nothing wrong
with your apples and pears as well. But this was a significant
they had I don't even I don't even know if they're has apple if they
had apples and pears in Makkah Mikado Madina Munawwara in those
days anyway, the next chapter is on the drink what the products
that awesome drank the different types of drinks that are sort of
loss of the loss and drank inshallah we'll look at that next
week. Allah Amanda Salonika Salaam Baalak the other jewelry will come
