hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa salatu salam ala so you can have
Mohammed while he also happy here about a casa limiter Sleeman
Kathira on Ilario Mateen Amar beret, we were looking at
in the chapter of the humility of Rasulullah sallallahu when we were
studying the very long Hadith which is related by Hassan or the
Allahu Anhu has to do with the Allahu Hadith number 343. So,
there was one point that he,
Hussein or the Allahu anhu, made to Hasson Hussein or the Allah one
who said that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was a
small Kosmo Padre fogli him feed dini. That's what he mentioned,
which means that the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam would
distribute
and split his time, provide his attention, give his attention,
teaching special attention to people based on their level, based
on their level of the deen
the status that they were in their Deen, that's how much more you
would give them.
Because the person with the highest status indeed, you can
give them more because they've got more capacity to accept and absorb
and appreciate what you're going to teach them what you're going to
give them.
Now what their Allama mentioned here, ignore your loss Kalani
mentioned here, he says so he wouldn't look at what family they
came from. He wouldn't look at what ancestry they were, whether
they were honorable according to family tree, he would be looking
at the Dean because he was distributing. He was disseminating
dean. And that had to go according to how much the capacity of the
person was this one big family, but he doesn't know anything on
from a DNA perspective. A slave is higher than this person. Why
should he give to this person? So this is just appropriate. That's
what you know how to ask Kalani mentioned is doing Serbia and
Serbia him. Why? Because the people of the Dean they are a
crumble after all. They are more noble in the sight of Allah
subhanaw taala because they have greater Taqwa. So these are people
of the deen that just don't have real knowledge but that will add
the level of practice as well. Because Allah subhanaw taala says
in a chroma Komenda Allah He at Qualcomm, the most noble among
you, an honorable among you, is the one who is the most God
fearing. among you. There's a very interesting Hadith which is
related by Imam Buhari,
in which
it's in the chapter, what the HUD Allah Who Ibrahima kalila Imam
Bukhari he discusses what the HUD Allahu Ibrahima Medina and Allah
subhanho wa Taala made Ibrahim alayhi salam, his friend is
Khalil. So under that chapter heading, Imam Buhari relates to
the Hadith Abu Huraira the Allahu Anhu he says that somebody asked
the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam ya rasool Allah, Quran nurse, who
would you consider the most noble person now? Would you consider the
most noble person so they're asking the royal awesome this
time? Right and look at the way this hadith goes. So then he says
at calm
the most, he answered according to the Quran, he said the most Taqwa
the one with the most taqwa, they said Lisa and her *. Look, it's
not about that's not the perspective we're asking you
about. We're not asking you about honor in terms of Deen. So they
said no, that's not what we're asking you about.
So then there was a lot of Ceylon immediately he responded he said
Oh, okay. For use of Nabi EULA, ignore Nabhi Allah ibn Abdullah
Abdul Hadi, Rila. Then you must be talking about use of the son of
the Prophet of Allah, the son of the Prophet of Allah, the son of
the Helene of Allah, because use of Alison's father was the prophet
Jacoba de salaam, his father was is how can he said his father was
Khalid Ibrahim Alayhi Salam. So are you asking about that noble
ancestry there?
So then they said, no, no, that's not what we meant either. We're
not asking you about that either. So then he said, Okay, maybe
you're asking me then for unmad Inilah. Arab? Maybe then you're
asking me about
the origins of this of the Arab ancestries.
That's a loony. That's what you're asking me about? Yes, you're
asking me with in regards to the Arab tribes, who is the most noble
among the Arab tribes in that sense? So then he responded based
on that he said, clear room filter Helia. Here room fill Islam,
either thokku what that means is the best of them, the best of
them. In the time of Jahangir, when there was no Islam, those who
are best among the Arab tribes, who they will remain the best of
them in Islam as well as long as they get
to an understanding of the deen. So, even before becoming Muslim,
if you have some nobility, if you have some quality, some special
characteristic that does not become eradicated and eliminated
when you come into Islam, you can actually preserve it as long as
you coat it as long as you
adorn it with the deen with an understanding of the deen. So once
you come into Islam, those people who are best they will obviously
be most prepared, best prepared to become better believers as well,
because they had an ability already. They had qualities
already. That's why
when certain individuals become Muslim, who are very intellectual,
who are very wealthy, obviously now they're going to use it, you'd
expect that if they have if they now become Muslim, and they
they learn the right things and they have have sufficient
knowledge they are going to use their money, their intellect in
the right way now, so they are going to be a bigger asset than a
poor person who might become Muslim, or a person who's just a
simple person who becomes Muslim. Clearly that's what it is. So the
province of Assam then said So you're asking about the Arab
tribes? Well, the best of them in Jah Helia are the best of them in
Islam with the condition that they gained Fick of the deen and
understanding of the deen
So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Now let's look at his
answers. The first answer the Prophet salallahu Salam gave was
that the best person is the one with the most Taqwa the answer, if
you look at it, all three were of different categories. The first
answer was based on
the first answer was based on
something which is considered to be the,
the vessel of all forms of goodness.
A container of all forms of goodness. Because Taqwa is
something which is the highest level of goodness. So he answered
them in the most comprehensive way. First, they said who is the
best person he said the one with with the most Taqwa.
So he gave them the most comprehensive answer first.
It is, and the other thing is that you can't become a prophet. But
you can become a moot ducky.
You can't gain Nobu. But you can gain Taqwa. So when he first gave
them the response, the response was of something that you can earn
for yourself. So he gave them the first response, which was the best
response, but they weren't looking for that. So he's gave them the
first response of the best thing that could be earned and acquired,
which is taqwa. Then the second answer he gave was, when they
said, No, that's not what we're asking you about. And he said,
Okay, then maybe you're asking me about the most noble in terms of a
God gifted, something you can't earn, but only Allah can give you
which is profited. You can't earn prophethood. If Allah has chosen
you, you get it. And now after the prophets, Allah says, There is no
profit. So you know, you can even forget that. So the second answer
he gave was based on the fact that the best God given directly God
given nobility is profited. That's why he mentioned that.
The other now then he gave the third answer. And the third answer
was
a combination between something you can acquire.
And something that cannot be acquired.
He was a mixture of both. Because if you had qualities, if a
particular tribe already had qualities, they've already got it,
you can acquire it now. If you weren't born in that family with
those qualities, then
then you're not from that family. But he coupled that with something
you can acquire which is understanding of the deen.
So the best is the one who's come with the best qualities who's also
understood the deen
but if you haven't come from that you can still gain an
understanding of the deen and you still have a way to get higher.
You know when the Mahad the thing when the Hadith which mentions
that when you people, the professor Lawson said a woman,
when somebody wants to marry her, they want to marry her for one or
four reasons. Either for her wealth for her family lineage, her
family tree, or her looks, beauty, or her deen and varicella. Some
said that make sure you're successful with the deen. But if
you look at the family one,
why would you want to get married in a good family?
You can have all sorts of reasons. One is you can then show off that
Oh, I got to go from this tribe. I got to go from this village. I got
to go from this family. It's something to be boastful about.
Right
among certain people who care about this kind of stuff,
nowadays, I don't think the new generation care about them. They
just care about how she looks. Right? And they just and others,
they care about the deen, they don't care about family, I get so
many emails, I don't care if my, my father wants me to get married
to an Algerian because they're from Algeria. My father wants me
I'm if I don't get married to a Pakistani, he's gonna throw me out
of the house. I get at least one email like that a week of this
kind of a problem. This guy's a practicing brother. And
you know, can we do a secret? Nikka? Right. That's a typical
question.
right tibia, typical question once a week that you get, like, soon as
I start reading the first line, I know what it's about. Right,
because they all start the same way. And I just feel really feel
sorry for them.
So the point of getting married to a good family is generally a good
family will be the one that comes with good qualities that
genetically disposed to these good qualities, whatever those good
qualities, maybe the generous people, maybe they are very
helpful people. Maybe they are, they've got whatever it is, we're
very intelligent. So the fact is that if you want to get married to
somebody in a good family, it's a good thing, because then your
children will benefit from that. So that's the reason that's,
that's a positive reason to look for. If you're going to get
married to somebody with a good family, so you can show off about
it, then that's the wrong reason. But if you want to get married and
take into consideration what kind of a family background somebody is
from, for the right reason, which is that I want the qualities of
that family, to be in my children as well. Because sometimes we may
feel that in our own family, we may have a lot of anger. We may be
I mean, people say you know that we have to be honest with
ourselves. I mean, nobody's perfect. Everybody has their
weaknesses. You know, maybe one family, they're not very into
education, you know, maybe they're not very into but you want your
children to be into. So you might want to look for something like
this. That's a possibility. It may be that,
you know, your veteran, very rough family, ready to go and beat
people up. Right? It could be all sorts of different things.
So you want quality to come? Right? So that's one of the
reasons they're so now, taking that into consideration. The
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he mentioned use of Ali
salaam, son of Jacoba Samson of his haka ism, son of Ibrahim
Alayhi. Salam.
It kind of gives an indication that this runs genetically in the
in the family, but obviously it doesn't. This was just Allah's
choice here to choose for. Father, Son, Son, son, right, for all of
them to be prophets. Not every prophet Musa Islam son wasn't a
prophet.
Neither was Harun Ali salaams
neither was their father. But here you've got that.
But what the Anima have discussed here
is that when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam also
mentioned in the Quran,
know when Allah subhanho wa Taala mentions in the Quran, la aloo
Kumada he he Ron IL, el Mercado de Tocqueville, Korba I don't ask you
for any. I don't ask you for any repayment, except that I want you
to love I want you to have love for my close ones.
So many of them I have mentioned that this means his family. And
they also add that if they're entitled to it, then you should
love them. Generally, unless they've
you know if there's a family of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi
wasallam unless they have no self respect themselves in this
different issue.
Also the prophets, Allah subhanaw taala says in the Quran in nama UD
doula Who do you think about uncovered ll Beatty or Utah
Hirakud dot Hira? Allah subhanho wa Taala wants to remove the filth
from you, oh, household of the messenger and he wants to purify
you.
So based on that, whether Allah mentioned is that the children of
pious people, the children of scholars,
people should also look after their rights because they also
have their fathers their, their fathers are Solahart pious
individuals are scholars. So some of that is going to come down into
the children so you should also respect their children.
That's why Allah subhanho wa Taala says okay, well let me know what
Tibetan RIA tune be Iman al haka. Now be him 30 year to whom those
who believe and their progeny, the descendants, follow them. With
Iman. Then we will link we will associate and link their dis
tendence with them on the Day of Judgment, which means that if
you're from the family of Siddiq or the Allah one Siddiqui,
then if you what tuber at home three at home be Eema. And in
That's the condition. You follow in your forefathers footsteps with
a true level of iman. You try to be like them, I'm from this
family, I'd like to be like them. I'm not from this family. So I'm
going to show off. I'm like this only so I want to be like them and
Allah will make you like them on the Day of Judgment, who will
gather you with them?
This if your great grandfather was a scholar, a famous scholar of the
deen or some pious individual, you and your intention is to be like
him. That's your inspiration. Allah will make you like them on a
day of judgment.
So this is where it's saying that the baraka of knowledge, the
baraka of taqwa, the baraka, baraka of piety, it will go down
and if you think that you have nothing like this in the family,
you can be the first one.
Then you're the main man.
You're not trying to be like anywhere you're the main man. So
nobody loses here. Right?
The amorphous Sydney mentioned from a blockbuster The Allahu
Anhu. He says that fire Kunal Allah don't feed Daraa Jetty him
we're in them yet malubay Amelie him, that Kadima tunnel Abba, he
Bhd ma il Allah de la him SubhanAllah.
He says, thus, their children will be put into their same status,
even if they've not been able to act exactly in the same way and
fulfill the same deeds as they did. Why this will be out of honor
of the parents of that grandparent of that forefather out of honor
for him or your children as well, as long as they meet a certain
criteria and but they don't reach the same actions that you did,
we'll still put them with you.
Some of the earlier mentioned that
when ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada has told us to be good with the
children of the Salah Hindware has he told us to do that.
There's no straightforward command like that. But there's a story in
the Quran which tells us that it's a story of Musa alayhis, Salam and
hydrolase Why did moosari Salaam gone,
erect that wall, renovate that wall that was about to fall down?
Even though the people in the area refused to host them? Why? What
can abou whom asylee her because they're dead father, these were
orphans, the dead father used to be a pious man. So now Allah
subhanaw taala made it such that this stranger comes along and
builds this wall so that their money can be protected. That they
would be receiving after they grow up old enough if they took it now
if it was found now it would have been stolen from them.
Just because their father was pious, Allah subhanho wa Taala
divinely intervenes.
So this tells us that ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada has, indirectly is
telling us to assist. And he has this honor for people whose father
whose father whose whose forefathers used to be used to be
pious, which tells us
on the other side, that if we're pious, Allah subhanaw taala will
give us Baraka in our descendants. If we want to preserve our
descendants, and the Iman, then piety in ourselves, will filter
through to them, even if we don't meet with them, even if were to
die, leaving them orphans.
Because these were orphans, Allah subhanaw taala brings in a divine
divine he has this hadith, Allah Islam come and do this.
So now, what the Allama mentioned, is, so then what would you think
if that was just a pious man? Then if somebody was a weenie of Allah,
like really pious, very close to Allah?
What do you think of their children?
What Allah subhanaw taala? How he would treat their children?
And if that's the case with the children of the willies of Allah,
then what do you think of the children of the shahada of the
martyrs? Who are even a stage higher than that? And if that's
the case, with the children of the shahada, the martyrs then what do
you think of those who are set the team which is even a higher level
those who have proved proven their Deen? And if that's the case with
the children of the city of Keene, then what do you think of the
children of the Gambia and the prophets?
And if that's the case with the children of the Gambia and the
prophets, then what about the children of the messengers there
are schools which are even a higher category.
And these are the other messengers
If that's the case with all the other messengers and their
children, then there's a stage even higher than that. What do you
think then of the children of the Cejudo mursaleen
of the leader of all of the messages, don't you think they
have the highest status, that if Allah subhanaw taala can divinely
intervene for the children of a pious individual. Above him is the
Wali above him is the Shaheed above him is the Siddiq.
Above him is the Nabhi the Rasul and above that is the messenger
Muhammad Rasul Akram sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So imagine his
children. That's why if you ever see a true salient, respect them
just purely for that reason.
As long as they are acting up to their forefathers, qualities,
they're trying to they're never going to be the same. They're
never going to be the same. But as long as they're trying.
So the prophets, Allah lorrison, with his third answer, going back
to that point, but of course, the lesson went back to the third, the
third answer was those who are good, some quality in Jah Helia
they will be the best in Islam as well, as long as they go and study
the deen as long as they go and study the deen.
And this is an encouragement those of us here who have not been able
to study the deen in a in some kind of formal way, you should try
to make some effort to do that, okay, by on once a week is good
enough. But it doesn't cut it because it doesn't help you with
everything. And really, if you're serious, you need to take on some
kind of study make some time for yourself. What I just heard is
that in Pakistan this year, right just in one, because of the the
work and the efforts of one particular shape, they're 60 or
70. Economy The exact number 60 or 70 Women doctors graduated from
the Alima class this year. These are women of the elite of
Pakistan.
Studying in medical universities who may have either been doing the
training or residency or still in medical school or have finished 60
to 70 of them graduated from the Alima program. To become a doctor
is not easy. It takes years and along with that they did him
a five year course for women.
That women I'm talking about when I heard that I thought Subhanallah
So those of us who are working from nine to five now there are so
many Arlynn classes going on in the evening.
They start at five, some start at 545 stem start at six. Yes, it's a
bit of an effort.
But that's when you will become more comfortable about how to deal
with your deen because you will understand everything. So it's a
it's an encouragement. Now. There is another aspect of this. The
answer that Allah salAllahu Salam gave, he gave it about in general.
Let's look at what Hadees are the Allahu Anhu said when the Prophet
SAW Allah some came back after his first experience with Ye. When he
first saw Gibreel Ali Salaam in the cave, and he came back and he
was trembling. And there was a fear that this was shaytani
influence. What did Khadija the Hola, Juan Jose kola? Never.
No way. Can this be any kind of evil influence on you? Why? Why
Hola. Hola, yo, Zeke, Allahu Akbar than Allah subhanho wa Taala will
never humiliate you look at the confidence in which she is saying
this. Allah will never,
never humiliate you and degrade you because you do the following
things. You tie the knots of kinship, you're very good with
your family. Your brothers sisters. He didn't have any
brothers sisters. But I mean, if we put it in our situation, your
uncle's aren't sons, daughters, relatives, you know, your family,
not friends, your family, your family has to come first. Thus, it
does not sit around. With that miracle. You pick up the burden of
others. What took Sybil Makhdoom those who can't earn you help them
to earn the best of social qualities you can have, but to
create life, and you're very hospitable to your guests. We're
touring Ireland, our bill hawk and you assist others when they if
they if they are confronted with some kind of calamity. You you
help the you help them out. That is why there is no way that is
what used to do before your Islam meaning before your prophecy. So
again, those qualities were there before and the quality has become
even more important afterwards. And Khadija the Alana recognizes
that. So the Sahaba their question, obviously in this hadith
was more about what do you call who's got a noble lineage?
Right. Is that Is there any anything about the innocent
Obviously said yes if you've got noble lineage, make benefit of it
in Islam and understand that then it becomes beneficial.
So even us, if our families we you know, we've got some qualities as
long as we gain an understanding of the deen those qualities will
be part of our deen and we'll be able to use them for the sake of
our deen. It's about valuing yourself recognizing what you have
the ability and then understanding its true worth and using it for
the deen. That's essentially what it is. Every one of us has some
kind of quality, which we just need to recognize and use it for
the deen. So that's why now the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, he used to deal with the people according to their Deen
according to their taqwa, according to what he could see of
that and what he knew of that. So you can't disregard ancestry
completely, and neither can you trust it completely. Because if
somebody is just gonna say I'm the family of Rasul Allah, some of
them do all the Haram in the world, the process allows him
himself said that if your actions don't take you forward, your
family your family lineage is not going to take you take your body's
gonna take you backwards. So you can't go with that completely and
neither can you disregard it completely. The real way is the
way in between where those people who are from good quality good
families, good names, good ancestry, as long as they evaluate
themselves and try to act according to where that what the
quality is all about. Inshallah, that that is where the benefit
lies.
Right. Now, the next point that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said, he said, Furman home full Hajah No, sorry, hasit
Hussain with the Alliance and some of the people that would come,
they would have one need. Some of them would have to needs, some of
them would have many, many needs, whether it's dunya needs,
Pharaoh needs further shall be him. And Rosa Lawson would become
involved with them, he would be busy with them, he would be
involved with them. And he would try to sort out their needs and
try to cater for their needs.
Where you shall renew whom fee FEMA, your sling, whom will OMA
and then the other thing, the price lesson, which we discussed
last week, is that Rosa Lawson will then get people involved and
busy. Because people who aren't busy, they waste their time and
this today, there's lots of timing to waste. One of the scholars were
saying that when we were young is about 60 years old. He's saying
that when we were young, the biggest entertainment you could
have is that you know, on the streets, there would be some kind
of guy that was performing some kind of acrobatics, or maybe he
had an animal or two or maybe he was trying to do some magic tricks
that was the biggest source of entity when you could go and see
you know that was it.
Right? You know 50 years ago what kind of entity where would you see
in a third world country some guy on the street in the crossroads in
the market doing this and all mashallah looks very good isn't
some kind of comedian but now you can sit at home and have whatever
type of entertainment you want. So the point for us is to be as
careful as possible.
So the promises also would get them involved
in those things which were beneficial for themselves and
reformatory for themselves and for the Ummah
men must lie to him. Yes, we must lie to him Andrew.
If they would ever ask anything it's actually mean Musa ality Him
and who What if you bury him below the umbrella home? Yes, Min Musa
hola tema here it says municipality.
Whenever they would ask him about anything that was to do with with
making themselves better, then he would answer them and he would
also answer them with anything that was appropriate. So he would
tell them okay, this Halal is haram do this don't do that he
would counsel them, he would say things which were beneficial for
them, he would look after them in that way. But again, he would only
tell them according to their status. He's not going to tell
somebody who's not very,
who's not so profound in his knowledge to do something that's
complicated because his mind won't be able to understand it and
comprehend it at that level. For example, He said, to build with
the Allah one unfuck. Wala Tasha mean the lush, spend, just keep
spending, and don't be fearful of the owner of the cash
equivalent. Don't be fear. Don't be don't fear from the one who
owns the Arsh that you're going to have less that you're going to
become needy. So for 2 billion tell them spend spend spend. Right
and don't fear, becoming needy and don't fear poverty. But he said to
another Sahabi he said I'm sick Alec about the moronic for indica
and that Waratah taka Alinea how you look I mean enter that room
either your ticket for food and US somebody else who actually came to
him to say that I want to give my entire wealth in the path of
Allah. The province of Assam said to him, No, you can't do that.
Keep a part of it for your descendants, because that is
better for you than to
leave them without anything so that they have to go and ask and
put their palms in front of others. So this was based on their
level with Bill already alone, he knew that he could tell him this.
And that was the best thing for you just spend, spend, spend,
don't be worried for another person who came and said, I want
to spend everything. So no, you don't spend any, because he knew
that that was the best thing for him and his family.
So that's the best guide that you can have the one who understand
each person's situation can respond accordingly. And that's
what the prophets Allah used to do.
For example, He said to one person who asked him for some guidance,
He said, It's the human Allah, gamma to stay Rajul and Solomon
Komik, be ashamed, in front of Allah subhanaw taala be
embarrassed.
Just as the way you would be embarrassed in front of one of the
pious people from your people from from your tribe.
He tells him that he said to another one, when he asked him for
some guys that all say the same words, all cine, which means, give
me some guidance, give me some counseling. So both of us were
told that one that the other one, he said lot of that don't get
angry. It's obviously he was sending him according to his
status, that this is what he needed. So this was the promise of
lessons very particular way of dealing with different
individuals.
Were cool. And then the prophets, Allah, some beyond that, because
he's all objective of his mission here was to propagate. So he will
say to those people who had come to Him, that those people who are
here, they should convey whatever they hear to the people that are
not here. When you believe the Shahid mean come alive, well, I
believe Huni, hydrothermal nicety, Blaga. And I want you also to
bring me the needs of the people who are unable to bring them mice
themselves. Some people who can't come for whatever reason, I want
you to bring them because they may be sick, they may be in somebody's
employment, they may be somebody slaved, they can't get away, they
but they need something, you bring me their needs for in
a blog or soltana.
And then process and give some virtue about that. To encourage it
even further. It wasn't just lip service, just to show people I'm
available for you. But he actually then told them that the one who
goes and
conveys the need of the one who can't convict for himself if he
goes and conveys this to the person who can help him, Allah
subhanho wa Taala will keep firm his feet on the Day of Judgment.
So he's actually encouraging that bring me the problems of people
now deal with them, if they can't come up for themselves. Now has
Hussein with the alonside law you've got to in the hula direct,
these are the things these were the kinds of discussions that took
place. There were no there was no wasting of time. These were, I
mean, these were so many different things like this, obviously, there
was no time for anything else. These were the kinds of things
that would be brought in front of the Prophet salAllahu alayhi
wasallam wala Yakubu Minh had no Yahoo and that is the only thing
that he would actually accept from anybody, he won't accept somebody
just come and waste his time like that. They wouldn't you have yet
Hulu Neru word and they would enter as though they're coming to
look for some place to graze for the animals, you know, some food
and nourishment and sustenance, they would come like that hungry
for something, whether you have 30 Hakuna eel, and they're working,
and they would not leave without eating, essentially, without being
spiritually nourished without getting their answer without
getting their counsel and their advice. And then he says,
that
way, a whole Jonah didn't listen to any analyte. And not just that
they would be fully satisfied themselves and quenched for what
they needed. He would also make them the alleles and guides for
other people. So he would do two things to them. That's why in a
very short amount of time, Islam spread so far, because he was so
impactful. He was so influential, they would come to him for their
own need, they would go out and become the fulfils of need of
others as well. That's how powerful the promise of the
Lauryssens personality was. And that's why the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam said that he had the Allahu vicarage on how you
look I mean mattala allocations, for one person to be guided by
you, you know, whether that means a friend at school, a student of
yours, a neighbor of yours, a family member of yours, a friend
of yours, if he becomes guided, and he just gets that much closer
to the dean, and he starts making solid when he never used to, he
stops committing Zina when he never used when he used to. He
stops lying. He stops committing anything else wrong there and
because of you, because of martial law, you are you use your wisdom
to try to correct them right in the most appropriate way. He said
that is better for you than that which the sun rises over
That's the whole world. That's how beneficial that is.
So, the people who sit with the profits or loss movies they used
to sit to they used to listen to his Hadith they used to learn and
that's why the Prophet said Allah why Islam said for in the aroma
what are the tool Ambia
the prophets, their inheritors other Allama because that's what
they've come to disseminate in the world URL. So, whoever takes
whoever takes knowledge, they are the true disseminators they are
the true inheritors. That is why IGNOU Shafi he mentioned that
either you can be who do the majority sit of key will while he
will hide one O'Connor till humble roofie basic while I'm talking
here, Allah is Allah T ha. He said, You should go and sit in
Bionz you should go and sit when nasiha is given. You should go and
sit with good weather good and the pious words of of the Dean
disseminated, even if you have a drink in your house, so even if
you've got a bottle of wine in your fridge or beer in your car,
right and you're going to drink it afterwards. Still go and listen.
Even if you can't even if you've got this wine in your house and
you can't remove it. What are the cool Melfa the free Huri Majelis
and hikma and don't ever say what's the point? What's the
benefit of me going to these gatherings? Well Allah Akbar Allah
Turkey Marcia when I can't leave this sin
Bell Allah Rami a uremia in the hood in Yelm yet,
because you're trying your best for the one who's who has to fire.
essentially try to do the best for your deen.
You have to fire. If you don't, if you miss today, you're gonna get
it tomorrow. So don't sit back thinking there's no point because
I can't remove this from my life. This is where you're going to go
and benefit so that you're going to have enough strength to remove
that from your life without going there without your heart being
inspired. Because when you come in for a beyond for that key word for
word of for Hadith for anything like that, it softens your heart
out, it gives you that strength to go and stop the things that you're
doing.
Don't think you're going to stop without getting this benefit.
These are the words of Allah's Messenger. These are the words of
the Quran and Allah. That's why he said this. So beautiful statement,
even if you've got wine sitting at home,
even if you've got to go to the club afterwards, come and attend,
there's one day you will stop. Otherwise, your heart will be dead
completely of heart will completely die. Just by sitting
with them, you will first start wearing clothing like them, just
when you go to the gathering.
So when you go for a gathering, you'll say well, I can't go with
all this weird stuff on me, I'll go at least you know dressed up
decently. So that much will benefit you. So you'll get that
much benefits. If not even that then at least you will get this
feeling that what I'm doing is wrong. Because when you when when
the person does wrong for a while you get used to it and you start,
you know, it's bad, but you don't feel it's bad as you used to feel
before. So when you come to the gathering, at least you start
feeling a bit more bad about it. So you'll get that benefit.
And then we're saying that the alone said firstly, l two and
Maharajji. I asked him
so now all of this discussion was about internal discussion what the
verse was used to incite,
right internally.
Now, Hussein are the alarms that I also asked him about his outside
life, His external life outside the home, for example, for First
of all, to one Maharaja, he gave a carne Osnap fee. How would he deal
with things they're called a countersuit Allah salAllahu Alaihe
Salam.
Your Xin Lisanna, who are young Xin sorry young Xin, Xin Lisanna,
who ill in Luffy, Maya,
firstly, outside the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam would
really protect his tongue
except from things that were extremely useful, and that were
necessary. So he wouldn't talk.
Talk much outside just like that he would only talk what's
necessary,
where you live, for whom, and the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam, he
would act in a way to bring people closer to him, he would
essentially satisfy people's hearts, that leaf will Kulu he
would make people happy.
Right by doing the right thing.
And then it says he would create your only form actually means he
would create happiness, satisfaction, love for each other
Wolfer between between them. So he would he had this ability to put
everybody as though they want heart that everybody's thinking
the same way. They're looking out for everybody else. It's as though
their heart is one because when everybody's heart is different
then everybody's selfish. But if he is able to put the heart
together, so everybody's thinking alike for each other than that is
very successful. That's exactly why Allah subhanaw taala says for
ALLAH SubhanA Kulu become for us back to Minamata he Juana Allah
subhanho wa Taala use this messenger. So he
created this.
He created this feeling of closeness in your hearts. And thus
you became like brothers after you were against each other for such a
long time, well, are you in a funeral home, and he would not
drive them away. So essentially, he would not do anything that
would drive them away from him, he would be forgiving, he would
pardon he would overlook he would be gentle in his approach. May
Allah subhanaw taala give us all these qualities, because it's very
difficult for every individual to have all of these different
qualities and be so busy and still have these qualities. Because you
know, we do get angry, we do get frustrated, we do get agitated. So
he had extreme clemency he had great humility. Allah subhanaw
taala. That's why he says in the Quran, Allah Quinta father, called
villain for Doom in Holic, that if you were harsh, and hard hearted,
then these Sahaba from around you, despite all of their love, for
they would have run away from you. Right? But this is your gentleness
that has won them like that for and when we're stuffing alone with
Shell, we don't feel and also forgive them overlook them, you
have to.
So Robert Allison would never get angry for himself for any dunya we
think it would always be if it was for the athlete, or he would do
that.
It was as though he'd become their loving father, the best father, it
was, that's how close he was to them. And he became to them. Were
you Kareem, Kareem a coolie Coleman, he would honor the noble
one of every every tribe See, there was a tribal system at that
time. So he would honor the the noble one of every tribe, that's
why Sophia or the Allahu anha God or the Allahu anha. They came as
slaves from tribes that were conquered. And they were either
the daughters or, you know, of the main family of the leaders and the
prophets, Allah himself married them. That was his way of being
noble to them. And in many cases, in that kind of situation that
their whole tribe became Muslim, they were freed and other benefits
ensued from that. And the person loves him himself said in a
hadith, which could be a mutawatir Hadith, it's so widely reported,
he said, either attack, Karima Coleman, either attack him carry
Macomb, in removal, when the noble person from any tribe comes to
you, then respect him, honor him. Because you're respecting that
according to his status, it's going to filter down to all the
others, if you just respect an individual Hamdulillah, but if you
respect according to his status, the head of something, and I think
today, you would, we don't have much of a tribal thing here. But
you do, I mean, in our families, and that, you know, there's
certain individuals who are considered to be like the leaders
of that family. And the main heads of that family are not official
leaders. But you know, like the more respected but respectable
among them of a particular village, if you if you you know,
if you're talking about places in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and
other places, or it could also mean for example,
the, the head of an organization
that's doing good for people, the head of some kind of welfare
organization and Institute, a madrasa, the principal of
someplace, the Imam of another community, right, that kind of
thing. If somebody like that comes, obviously, we have to show
more respect for them. Because that person is coming with a lot
of things behind him. So you have to show that much more respect.
Which doesn't mean that you put everybody else down, remember that
it's just that you have to give this more respect than you would
give to individuals, but you have to give everybody respect. That's
what the prophets of Allah Simpson, where you will be here
today him and if it you know, because in those days when the
people would come under Islam, a new tribe would come under Islam,
what vessels in many occasions, they would just make the original
leader, he would make them the leader of them in Islam as well.
So many of the leaders, they would be the leaders from before he's
made them, and because they're the best suited for that purpose,
they've all become Muslim. So he's the best suited for that person.
You've got leadership qualities. Why Yeah, thoroughness. But on the
other hand, he would be very careful about people, he would be
very careful about being very precocious from just messing
around with people.
Why? Because
while that is minimum, he would be careful that he didn't mingle too
much, because when you mingle too much with someone, then you lose
the respect. And for him to be beneficial, he had to have that or
and respect. So he would be careful how he mingled with people
as well, how he balanced that was amazing, because the qualities
that we hear where he would go and take care of even a slave girl,
right, on the other hand, he's careful. So all of these things
another thing, man
options here is mainly a year to year and I had the minimum Bishr
who want a hookah who so yes, he was careful from people he was
careful. But this was without
taking from them
a smiley face, a jovial face of good character. So he didn't
compromise on his good character and approaching them in a pleasant
way, just because you have to be careful of them. Being careful of
people doesn't mean that you just turn around and disappear or you
show them a bad character. It just means that you're not going to get
to buddy buddy with them, but at the same time, your luck has to
come through. Then he says it's related by Imam taba, Ronnie and
others from Sal IGNOU, who named for the Allah one, that the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
used to go to the weak believers
who weren't considered very strong in the community, he would go and
visit them. He would go in go and visit their sick people. He would
go to their janazah press. Other people wouldn't go because they
you know, they looked on the downtrodden. But he would go and
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he is to make sure that he
keeps abreast of the situation and of what's happening to his to his
companions, he would ask about them. If any of them were sick, he
would go and visit them. If somebody was away somewhere he
would make dua for them. If somebody passed away he would make
dua for them and he would send to us for them as well. And another
thing woman can get a hold of and you're gonna watch at the feet of
Cha and God Allah Allah for learn and watch the arena officiating
our I mean taxi run in Talia Kobina la vie and Tarik hat, t
Freeman ZD.
You know, sometimes somebody disappears, they stop coming. So
the profit or loss I'm used to if you have a fear that somebody is a
bit upset,
right, somebody's a bit upset. And that's why they've stopped coming.
And they're not coming anymore. On he used to say the maybe such and
such a person is angry with us. Right? They found something so
they're a bit upset with us. Or maybe he's seen some shortcoming
from us he blame himself like shortcoming. Come on, let's go.
Let's go and visit them. So then he would go there's a lot of stuff
to do. That's a lot of stuff to do.
And this is a very comprehensive explanation of Rasulullah
sallallahu fantastic Pattaya TV when he would go and visit them in
the house. Okay, brother, you know what's going on? Is everything
okay? Today upset you something I'm really sorry, you know,
whatever. That's the way we would have to do today.
Where's Aloha nurse, ama fineness. He would also keep an
understanding of the trends, the issues of the community
says people would ask him, but then he would also ask about
telling me who's worthy, who's you know, who's doing something really
good in the community or who is bad. He would try to get that
general understanding, not like spying, but general. And just to
keep abreast of that he could deal with the situation as a leader, as
the Imam. That's important. So he would do that. I mean, this is
literally, I mean, all the guidance, especially for leaders
and Imams, this is what guidance for them, because that's what he
is giving as a role model here.
And then what you have seen on Hussen,
you know, like so no, okay. People are going to sheesh places because
they think it's okay, so then you have to give a hotbar about it the
next week. Right. So if there is anything going on, let me know.
Because I mean, there's the shisha is. I don't know if it's a problem
here. Do we have any? I had even women gone to the shisha places? I
think it's okay.
Even niqab is where you have Sunil Hasson where you can we he? If he
saw something good. There was some good achievement. Someone was
doing something good in the community. He would
essentially appreciate it. You would praise it. He would make it
he would say it's good. When you call we he would support it.
So all the good didn't have to just come from him. If somebody
else did good, he would. He would appreciate that. And then it says,
where your cubby hole Cubby, but if something bad was going on,
then he would mention it.
You have to do both. Sometimes from some people, all you hear
from them is you're gonna go to *. Right? So it's always
talking about haram haram haram. You have to give somebody Bashara
as well, you have to talk about good things as well. You have to
say look this Jana, as well, you have to talk about that as well.
You can't just keep telling people these are synesthesia, synesthesia
since I mean, you know, you do have to mention that but you have
to do both. And that's what the process was.
To me showing this balance where you were he, which means he would
really demote anything bad that was happening. So he would mention
it, he would say it's bad. He was be critical of it. And he would
demote it. He would show how bad it is. And he would tell people
that you shouldn't do it.
What Imam ignores you mentioned is that the Prophet salallahu Alaihe
Salam wasn't asking people to do rebirth of them, he was just
trying to get an understanding of what's going on in the community,
so that he could deal with the situation and he could, he could
manage it. Right. So that's what he was doing. And
he could then deal with everybody according to their status, he
would know what's going on who deserves something more and so on
and so forth. More utter denial. So the promise of Lawson was
completely on the middle path. He was very moderate in the way he
dealt with everything. He was perfect in his balance. That's
what it mentions here and then he carries on Inshallah, we will be
looking at this the rest of this inshallah afterwards, next time in
sha Allah,
we will finish this hadith inshallah and hopefully the
chapters will next week this one section left of it inshallah
JazakAllah here for listening. May Allah subhanho wa Taala bless you.
