			Sleeman. Kathy, you're on laomi
been murdered. The last time we
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:34
			covered the destruction by the
Tatas. And through that, the
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:41
			ending of that I busted Kenny for
caliphate. Now, two years before
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:47
			that, before the belief of before
the Khalifa of the last Khalifa of
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:52
			the Ambassade Empire, was killed
by the Tatas, as we explained last
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:59
			week, two years before that, a
major incident took place. And
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			this incident was something that
would
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:08
			later and at the time, something
that really was very striking, in
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:13
			the sense of it being a miracle, a
miracle in a number of ways.
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:17
			Firstly, it was something that
over 600 years before that the
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:21
			Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam had said it would take
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:25
			place, and it was such a statement
that seemed to be an incredible
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:30
			statement. But when it took place,
it was completely confirmed what
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:34
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
salam had said, and then when it
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:37
			took place, when this incident
took place, within it, there were
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:41
			other miracles that inshallah we
will discuss as well. So it's a
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:46
			very, very significant event in
our history, which unfortunately,
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:50
			many people don't even know about.
In fact, today, many of those who
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:52
			live in Madina Munawwara may not
know about it.
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:56
			They pass by the area where this
took place, but they don't really
		
00:01:56 --> 00:02:00
			know what's behind what they
actually see from maybe the
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:05
			highway or the motorway. Firstly,
this hadith is the one of the main
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:07
			Hadith with regards to this
incident is related by Imam
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:11
			Buhari, and Imam Hakeem in mustard
rock and others as well and from
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:15
			Abu Huraira to the Allah Juan. The
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:21
			sallam said lots of cool Musa had
the raja na Roman or the ages to
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:27
			do inocle ebtb Busara HeMan Buhari
and Hakim relate from Abu Huraira
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:30
			the hola Juan the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:36
			that the day of judgment, the last
hour will not arrive until a fire
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:42
			will erupt until a fire will erupt
from the land of hijas. From the
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:47
			land of hijas, which will
illuminate the necks of the camels
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:52
			of Busara. Just to give you an
understanding Busara This is not
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:57
			bus or bus rise in Iraq. Busara is
in Sham, it's south of Damascus.
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:01
			It's about 600 and something
kilometers away from Madina
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:07
			Munawwara. That's about 400 miles
or something so many 100 miles
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:13
			away, this fire would be so great,
so high and so fearsome, that it
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:17
			would illuminate the next of the
camels of Busara, which is in the
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:23
			south of Damascus in Syria. That's
about 600 kilometres in distance.
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:26
			That's something the Prophet
sallallahu sallam said 1400 years
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:30
			ago, and I said it was a very
incredible statement. There's
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:33
			another narration there's a number
of narrations that we have about
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:36
			this from the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wasallam. Another one which
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:40
			is related by Abi Shaybah Imam
Ahmed Imam Hakim Imam. Hakim
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:44
			considers it sahih as well, from
Abu Salam Al Khalifa to the Allah
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:48
			one was what allah sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam said that what
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:54
			will be the situation when the
fire will erupt from the amount of
		
00:03:54 --> 00:04:00
			rock which will illuminate the
necks of the bacteria and camels
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:06
			of Busara just like the light of
day. That's how bright it will be.
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:10
			That it will be like the
brightness of the light of day and
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:15
			that's how it will seem in Sham.
taba Ronnie relates from ausimm
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:19
			have no idea Al Ansari who says
that once we asked the Prophet
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:24
			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam just
after he had first come to Madina,
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			Munawwara after the prophets,
Allah Lauryssens migration from
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:32
			Makkah to Madina, Munawwara they
asked him that all the prophets
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:37
			Allah some asked them rather,
where is Hubzu sale or Hubzu sale?
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:42
			Asking about a particular place.
Now it was probably a very small
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:45
			obscure village or something of
that nature and they said we don't
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:49
			know Jaros Well, Allah we don't
know. Then he says that this
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:54
			narrator says that after a while,
meaning after maybe some days or
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:59
			whatever, a person from the blue
Salim tribe was passing by
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:03
			I just asked him, Where are you
from? He said, I'm from Hubzu
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:04
			sale.
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:07
			The same place that a Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam had
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:08
			just recently inquired about
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:13
			so quickly, I called for my
slippers, and I quickly rushed to
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:15
			the Prophet sallallahu it was
cinnamon said Yara swill Allah,
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:20
			you are asking us about this herb
sale. And we told you we don't
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:24
			know anything about it, but just
know a man has passed by. And I
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:27
			asked him, and he reckons that
he's from the people of that area.
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:33
			So Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa
salam had that person called and
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:36
			asked him, where's your family? He
said at home. So say that's where
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:40
			my family is. But I'm here. So he
said quickly, take your family out
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:45
			of that area, because soon a fire
is to erupt there which will
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:50
			illuminate the next of the cameras
of Busara. There's going to be a
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:53
			mighty fire. They're basically
saying in that statement in
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:58
			another one, which is even more
graphic than that. abou yalla Imam
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:02
			Muhammad and others relate from
raffia Agnew Bishop a salami from
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:07
			his father that and have a little
Haytham he says that this chain is
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:08
			a good chain as well.
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:14
			For the most part, says you she
could now run the origin hub CSAIL
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:18
			the 00 bottle label this year on
the hardware to Pima lane.
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:25
			That soon a fire will erupt from
Hubzu sale that will travel like
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:30
			the speed of a slow camel and it
will travel during the day and it
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:34
			will stop during the night. In
masa Dilfer dose another narration
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:39
			from Armada the hola Juan that the
Day of Judgment will not occur
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:45
			until a valley from the valleys of
Hijaz will overflow with fire. And
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:48
			later on, when I do a bit of
analysis, you will understand how
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:53
			true this is. In fact, this is a
very very intricate statement when
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:58
			a valley from the valleys of Hijaz
will overflow with fire, and that
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:02
			the common statement there is that
it will illuminate the necks of
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:06
			the camels of Basra and you can
look up Busaba is an area south of
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:10
			Damascus spelled B O 's are a in
English this way spell in Basra.
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:13
			So now this is something that a
Prophet sallallahu sallam said
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:21
			during his lifetime, and 100 years
past 200 300 400 500 And then in
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:31
			654 Hijiri 654 EDRI 656 was when
the final Ambassade ruler and
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:35
			Masdar sim was killed, and that's
when the Tatas destroyed by that
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:39
			just after this two years before
that ending, this fire had taken
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:44
			place in Madina Munawwara 656. And
if you want to put in more
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:51
			perspective, that means 12 156 See
1256 So right now, in 2000, we're
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:55
			talking about how many years ago,
but 800 years, we're in
		
00:07:55 --> 00:08:01
			14 131 32 654, we're talking
about, what 800 years ago, but 600
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:04
			and some years after the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Allah
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:08
			has some who the who's a historian
of the city of Madina, Munawwara
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:13
			he's got a four volume book on the
history and the virtues of Madina,
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:17
			Munawwara he relates this in great
detail as to exactly what happened
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:20
			here. So that firstly, it was
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:27
			at the ending of Joomla, adalah.
Hera, beginning of actually
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:32
			beginning of Joomla, the lockira
ending of Joomla, the Lula, in 654
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:33
			Hijiri.
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:40
			And initially, the fire was very
light. This was not really a fire,
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:46
			what it really was, was a volcanic
eruption. Flaming hot, because
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:51
			when you look up Madina, Munawwara
to the south, east, south and
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:56
			south east, there's the horror.
And then also to the north
		
00:08:56 --> 00:09:00
			northeast, is the horror, there's
another horror, these are, this is
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:06
			in that white kind of desert in
the light desert, there is this
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:11
			large expensive area which is
filled with black bolts, old
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:16
			rocks, and the whole land is dark.
And for those who have traveled
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:20
			between Madina, Munawwara, and
Riyadh, which is further to the
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:27
			east, in the center of the Arabian
Peninsula. They have looked at
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:33
			this large expanse of dark land
rock, as they've passed, Biden
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:37
			thought it to be quite amazing,
but very few people actually
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:41
			ventured beyond that to behind
there, where there are a number of
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:46
			craters. In fact, there are to the
north there are two mountains
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:50
			which are of white ash. So in the
middle of all the darkness, there
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:56
			actually is a white ash, mountains
of white ash. And this craters,
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:59
			there's a number of fissures in in
the ground, meaning
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:02
			cracks in the ground that you'd
have to be very careful that
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:06
			because if you fall in, you know
where you would get to. And so
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:09
			there are a number of these areas
just around there, that whole area
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:11
			is kind of on a fault line as
such.
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:18
			And there's there's a lot of
geological, volcanic activity
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:21
			there that they say that on
average about every 340 or 50
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:24
			years, there's a there's a volcano
there, there's some movement down
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:30
			there an earthquake. So that land
is, is prone to that, as was seen
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:36
			in this year 654, when the last
major eruption took place. So this
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:41
			was actually a volcano, which is
which erupted. And this was from
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:45
			these fishes, about six of six of
these, six of these erupted at
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:49
			once. And it was quite, quite
amazing. But the miracle, as
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:53
			you'll see is what we're also
looking at here. So it says then
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:57
			that on the Tuesday it became
stronger, it became more severe.
		
00:10:58 --> 00:11:03
			And then it became so large and so
mighty, that it had a visible
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:06
			presence that people actually
could begin to notice it when it
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:10
			was Wednesday, which is about the
third of the month or so or the
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:14
			fourth of the month. Towards the
ending of that day, the last third
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:21
			of that day, a massive earthquake
occurred from which many the huts
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:27
			shook. I mean, it was quite a
tormenting situation because they
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:29
			weren't used to earthquakes. So
when this earthquake took place,
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:33
			people became extremely
frightened. Now, the thing is that
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:36
			this was just not a one off
earthquake. The earthquakes
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:42
			continue these tremors continued
one after the other until they
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:46
			remained until the night of
Friday. So Thursday night Friday.
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:52
			And it seemed that this were
followed by these rolls of
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:57
			thunder, it had a sound like the
roar of thunder. And it almost
		
00:11:57 --> 00:12:01
			seem not. Because this was love
bouncing jumping up and down. It
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:09
			was just spewing, spewing forth.
It. It was like the Earth was the
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:14
			earth was shaking. And before
before it actually erupted. We're
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:17
			talking still about the
earthquake, when all the tremors,
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:23
			the walls were shaking, obviously.
And they were about 18 tremors.
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:27
			They were about 18 tremors just
did a daytime. In one day, they
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:33
			were 18. Tremors eventually come
down in mid morning on Friday. And
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:36
			when it was half daytime during
July time, meaning when it was
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:42
			midday, that's when that fire
erupted. So it came it was it was
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:45
			initially there were tremors and
then the fire erupted.
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:51
			Firstly, it's just a lot of smoke
that build out from there. So much
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:56
			so that the whole horizon was
covered in black and you couldn't
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:56
			see anything.
		
00:12:58 --> 00:12:59
			And then nighttime came.
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:05
			So the night fell. And then you
could see the flames shoot up. So
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:10
			at night they had daytime it was
smoke, and then the actual flames
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:10
			came out.
		
00:13:12 --> 00:13:18
			First, it was on the one edge of
the horror, the Harada is this is
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:25
			this area of the dark rock and the
dark, the darker Earth, which is
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:30
			the one thing the South is harder
to refer. And then there's some at
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:33
			the top. And then there's that one
that spreads all the way to Haber.
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:40
			So initially, that's where it
initially arose at the edge of
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:44
			that. And it looked like when the
way people described it was kind
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:48
			of very interesting said that it
looked like a whole city, a whole
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:53
			massive town or a city in there
because the flames and the lava
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:57
			was so high and it was consuming
everything in its presence. And
		
00:13:57 --> 00:14:02
			they described it like it had
forts in their minarets in there.
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:05
			And it was like it was surrounded
by a wall like a city surrounded
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:08
			by a wall. So this was some of the
descriptions that people have
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:11
			given of the might of this thing.
I mean, some have described that
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:15
			they could even see, I mean,
again, this could be just some
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:17
			people's imaginations because
there are a number of
		
00:14:17 --> 00:14:21
			descriptions. One person it
actually even says a relates that
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:24
			it would consume all this it would
melt literally melt all of the
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:29
			stones that came in a twin just
leave it in molten like molten
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:33
			wax, but any wood that it would
pass over like trees or something
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:37
			you would not burn it at all. But
that seems to be quite an extreme
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:40
			exaggeration, because many of the
other more stronger reports say
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:43
			that not everything that was in
its way it was just absolutely
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:46
			just melting it and consuming it
and nothing I mean, how could
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:49
			anything remain in that kind of a
outpour
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:53
			so any small mountain or hill that
he would pass by it would just
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:55
			completely melt it down.
		
00:14:56 --> 00:15:00
			So initially, it was like a red
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:04
			River, and sometimes bluish. So a
bluish Red River. That's how they
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:08
			describe it bluish Red River. I
mean, this is the color when when
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:13
			things burn at a very high
intensity. And it had the sound
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:17
			like roaring thunder as it was
going through. It eventually
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:21
			reached the place where it would
the station of the array of the
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:25
			Iraqi pilgrims. So when the
pilgrims from Iraq used to come,
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:28
			there was a particular station
where they would all meet up. So
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:35
			it reached that area, and so much
debris would be left after it
		
00:15:35 --> 00:15:38
			passed by somewhere that it was
like that debris would become like
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:43
			a mountain said left mountains in
his way and this is what volcanic
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:47
			activity does it leave where
there's larger amounts of lava, it
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:51
			will leave like volcanic
activities. And then this fire, it
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:56
			stopped all the way very close to
Medina Mona about a few kilometres
		
00:15:56 --> 00:16:00
			just outside Madina Munawwara Now
despite all of this happening
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:04
			outside Madina, Munawwara a few
kilometers outside, in Madina
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:07
			Munawwara itself, there was a very
calm breeze
		
00:16:09 --> 00:16:12
			that was flowing. Some have
described this entire movement,
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:19
			like the boiling or the bubbling
of a pot, and you know, so it
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:22
			wasn't really it wasn't just a
fire, it was actually love and
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:26
			that's how they can describe it as
something like that. Called the
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:30
			Sinan was one of the judges of the
time he relates that when this
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:34
			fire had begun, I went to the Emir
of Madina, Munawwara the governor
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:39
			of Madina, Munawwara his name was
Ed is the Dean when if, and I said
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:45
			to him, that this other job has
surrounded us. So we need to
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:48
			resort to Allah subhana wa Tada we
need to make dua to Allah subhanho
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:52
			wa taala. So this king became
extremely frightened as well,
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:55
			because everybody could see it.
Now. You could see from all of the
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:58
			houses of Medina whenever you
could just see it, that this was a
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:01
			mighty fire. And the thing was
that it was coming directly out
		
00:17:01 --> 00:17:05
			Madina Munawwara. So if it was
consuming everything in its wake,
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:09
			the entire Madina Munawwara would
have been wiped out. So now the
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:13
			king, he did a number of things.
And I think this didn't happen all
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:17
			at once. But I think as it became
more intensified as it moved and
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:19
			so on so forth. The king did a
number of different things.
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:22
			Firstly, he freed all of His
slaves,
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:27
			freed all of it because freeing a
slave is extremely encouraged a
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:32
			virtuous act in Islam. When you do
that, it's really really a
		
00:17:32 --> 00:17:35
			virtuous thing and Allah subhanaw
taala really loves it. So when you
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:39
			fear that Allah subhanaw taala has
anger is upon you, then you do
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:42
			things that make Allah so that
makes Allah subhanaw taala happy.
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:46
			So number one freed all of the his
slaves, returned to everybody,
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:50
			whatever he had confiscated from
them anything that was taken out
		
00:17:50 --> 00:17:54
			of oppression, in any oppressive
measure, he returned all of those
		
00:17:54 --> 00:17:57
			things, whatever he could think of
he had everything returned that
		
00:17:57 --> 00:18:00
			any of his ministers or anything
had taken and any tax that he had
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:04
			put on the people he even remove
that he said okay, no tax from now
		
00:18:04 --> 00:18:10
			on. And then the Emir of Medina
and these are all very significant
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:13
			things because just remember this
fire is raging. It's been going on
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:17
			for days now and it is coming.
It's slow. I said the prophets
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:20
			Allah some had said it's going to
go like the pace of a camel, but
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:24
			it is coming towards Madina.
Munawwara right, and nothing
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:27
			you're not gonna sit, you're gonna
save yourself from there. The Emir
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:31
			of Madina Munawwara quickly went
down to the masjid and he slept in
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:36
			the masjid on that Saturday night.
And along with him, the entire
		
00:18:36 --> 00:18:39
			population of Medina was present
with him. So much so that even the
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:42
			women and children rushed out of
their houses, and they were
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:45
			surrounding the masjid. And they
were just into, around the Masjid.
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:50
			So that Amin, all of his
ministers, all of the men of of
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:53
			Medina and the Emir is in the
Hijra of the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:56
			Sallam is by the role of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
		
00:18:56 --> 00:18:56
			sallam.
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:03
			Even the people who gone tend to
the palm trees outside the city,
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:07
			even they came, because there
would be no palms left. Even they
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:10
			came, so everybody was just like
from the entire outskirts. They
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:14
			all came to the masjid. They were
there making dua to Allah subhana
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:19
			wa Tada. Lots of crying, lots of
crying. They they had their hats
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:21
			off because this was an expression
of humility. They had their hats
		
00:19:21 --> 00:19:25
			off just weeping in front of Allah
subhana wa Tada. You know, in, in
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:28
			hajj in in a haram, you take off
your heads. So this is an
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:32
			expression of humility, that they
took off their hearts as well. And
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:35
			they were all confessing to their
sins and making Toba for all their
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:40
			sins, and they were at the grave
hoping for the bulk of the Prophet
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:42
			sallallahu alayhi wasallam there
as well.
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:49
			And ajeeb the most amazing thing
was that this fire, despite coming
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:56
			straight to Madina Munawwara at a
short distance, before it suddenly
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:57
			turned,
		
00:19:58 --> 00:19:59
			it miraculously turned
		
00:20:01 --> 00:20:03
			It just turned away, there was
nothing that could have
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:08
			diverted this, no strong wind,
whatever, it was just a miraculous
		
00:20:08 --> 00:20:13
			turn. And geologists until today
that have been studying this,
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:16
			there's a Welsh geologist and
there's others that have studied
		
00:20:16 --> 00:20:16
			it.
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:23
			They just can't understand how, if
a volcanic eruption of that nature
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:27
			that is spreading in one direction
can just suddenly take a turn as
		
00:20:27 --> 00:20:31
			though it's got a mind of its a
premeditated mind that it can
		
00:20:31 --> 00:20:36
			direct itself wherever it goes.
This can understand it. Allah
		
00:20:36 --> 00:20:40
			subhana wa Tada. Turned then that
fire away from them as some hoody
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:46
			relates to the left to the left.
And then it went into the worthy
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:51
			or Hey, Haley Ain. And the people
of Medina could just see it with
		
00:20:51 --> 00:20:55
			the with their eyes. This then
despite it remained for about
		
00:20:55 --> 00:21:00
			three months, meaning this
eruption, and this flow continued
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:03
			for about three months, but Madina
Munawwara was saved. So there were
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:07
			obviously two ends to this because
it was going in to end so it
		
00:21:07 --> 00:21:11
			describes how one end was in the
word your Chevette, and then there
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:15
			was another one, but the one that
was towards Madina Munawwara so it
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:19
			did not continue that way and it
extinguished in that area, and
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:24
			then it turned the other way. Its
width was about four miles long.
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:28
			So I mean, you can imagine Medina
wasn't a big at that time either.
		
00:21:28 --> 00:21:31
			Madina Munawwara wasn't that large
either. But its width was about
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:37
			four miles long. And it filled the
valley that was four furlongs,
		
00:21:37 --> 00:21:43
			actually. So pictures of this,
Saudi Aramco magazine had many
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:49
			graphic pictures of this area. And
there is one crater, which is over
		
00:21:49 --> 00:21:53
			a kilometer in length, where you
know, that which was part of this
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:58
			eruption, so that any stone that
was in its path would be just
		
00:21:58 --> 00:22:03
			turned to wax. I mean, stones burn
at a very high temperature. So you
		
00:22:03 --> 00:22:07
			can imagine the temperature of
this, that any stone that came in
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:11
			its way would just burn, it would
just melt literally just melt. And
		
00:22:11 --> 00:22:15
			when it would melt, it would
become dark, who would become
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:21
			black. After after being red hot,
it would actually turn turn black.
		
00:22:21 --> 00:22:23
			And that's where you got this
large expense of blackness that
		
00:22:23 --> 00:22:26
			remains there now. And there are a
number of places that were then
		
00:22:27 --> 00:22:32
			because it left a lot of debris in
its wake. So many mountain passes
		
00:22:32 --> 00:22:36
			were were shut down, because they
were completely blocked up by a
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:39
			lot of the debris that he left,
you know, because of its movement,
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:42
			and because of what it what it was
carrying, it just covered a lot of
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:48
			not today, the aerial photographs
of that area, show a dark layer.
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:51
			And then it shows another layer,
which shows the one that you're
		
00:22:52 --> 00:22:57
			that must have erupted before that
one, but the Dark One is from 600.
		
00:22:57 --> 00:23:01
			From the six hundreds, number of
the historians have actually
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:05
			related this. So this is not just
a one man narration Mr. DW
		
00:23:05 --> 00:23:08
			cathedra has related this as well.
He says that call the southern
		
00:23:08 --> 00:23:13
			dental Hanafi related to me that
his father says Sofia Dean, who
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:18
			was a murderous, he was a teacher,
in the mother of Busara. Now we're
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:22
			going to Missouri, right, which is
about 600 kilometers away. He says
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:26
			My father was a Sufi Dean was a
teacher at the mothers of Busara.
		
00:23:26 --> 00:23:31
			And he told him, that he informed
him that a number of the desert
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:34
			Arabs that were there in that
Busara area tending to their
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:39
			camels, they saw clearly the next
of their camels in the light of
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:42
			that fire, which the prophets and
a lot of them have spoken about.
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:46
			So it's not related from just one
man that he said he saw something
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:50
			but all or many of the shepherds
of that area that the camel men,
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:54
			they all related number of them
related that they could see they
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:57
			could see it was just very bright.
Now the thing is that if you
		
00:23:57 --> 00:24:01
			remember in the Hadith he talks
about Hubzu sale Mardini block a
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:05
			theory relates that this fire, it
came in the direction it came from
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:10
			the direction of the east of
Madina Munawwara towards the way
		
00:24:10 --> 00:24:16
			of Swati Thea. So Aditya and that
is where Hubzu sale is. It's
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:20
			between the horror of Banu Salim
and Swati Tia. So that's where
		
00:24:20 --> 00:24:24
			erupted from every detail that
arose Allah ism is giving. It's
		
00:24:24 --> 00:24:28
			almost as if he knows the
geological aspects of the area and
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:31
			the movements of things and he's
prophesizing this. Now the thing
		
00:24:31 --> 00:24:35
			is that after this fire, which
Alhamdulillah was turned away
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:40
			miraculously by the doors, and the
Toba and the repentance of the
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:43
			people on Madina, Munawwara
strangest thing is that after
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:48
			people felt safety from that, and
hamdulillah Madina Munawwara was
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:52
			saved the masjid burned down for
other reasons later that year.
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:56
			And that is the first of the
burnings of the Prophet
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:58
			sallallahu. Some have spoken about
where the masjid will burned out
		
00:24:58 --> 00:25:00
			the first of the burnings that he
spoke about
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:00
			But
		
00:25:01 --> 00:25:07
			the other thing is that digelar,
the Euphrates and the Tigris
		
00:25:07 --> 00:25:09
			River, this is the Tigris that
digitalize the Tigris River in the
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:10
			Iraqi overflowed.
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:16
			And because of that much of
Baghdad, came under water. And in
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:22
			fact, so much so that even the
house of the Wazir of Baghdad that
		
00:25:22 --> 00:25:26
			was destroyed in that that was a
major assign for them, because if
		
00:25:26 --> 00:25:30
			you remember we talked about how
the Abbasids had also become
		
00:25:30 --> 00:25:34
			lovers of opulence and how they
eat possessions at least twice led
		
00:25:34 --> 00:25:37
			to the delay of the Eid Salah
prayer until close to midnight.
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:40
			And the other one just after
sunset, heed prayer they're
		
00:25:40 --> 00:25:43
			supposed to be performed in the
morning was performed at night,
		
00:25:43 --> 00:25:46
			not sure what happened to other
solids. Maybe they were performed,
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:47
			I don't know.
		
00:25:48 --> 00:25:52
			But this was a warning for them,
Dutch law overflowing and so on.
		
00:25:53 --> 00:25:59
			And then in the year after that,
so we were talking about 654. In
		
00:25:59 --> 00:26:00
			655. The
		
00:26:02 --> 00:26:06
			the major incident took place, the
major crisis and onslaught which
		
00:26:06 --> 00:26:10
			was the onset of the Tatas where
they came and killed.
		
00:26:11 --> 00:26:15
			But nearly over half of that three
quarters of the population of of
		
00:26:15 --> 00:26:19
			Baghdad, and they killed the last
of the Khalifa of the Abbas at
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:24
			Empire Moscow sim. And this lasted
for about 30 Something days this
		
00:26:24 --> 00:26:27
			killing I mean to kill over a
million people, how long is it
		
00:26:27 --> 00:26:30
			going to take? This is not
something new and think about but
		
00:26:31 --> 00:26:36
			it was over 30 days. What they did
was they also took all the books
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:41
			out of the libraries. And they
would throw them on the ground and
		
00:26:41 --> 00:26:42
			have the horses run over them
		
00:26:43 --> 00:26:48
			and trample over them. The Great
Mother Son Islamia, which was one
		
00:26:48 --> 00:26:51
			of the major colleges there that
demand was it used to teach at
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:59
			that was seen to become the in it.
They made stables grazing areas
		
00:26:59 --> 00:27:02
			for their animals with books, they
would make them where they would
		
00:27:02 --> 00:27:05
			line that they would literally
construct the walls out of the
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:07
			books, one on top of the other.
And then they would protect the
		
00:27:07 --> 00:27:12
			animals inside to make cubicles
for them to graze and then a fire.
		
00:27:13 --> 00:27:17
			Also, there was a fire in Baghdad
because the plasticization just
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:22
			ruined everything. There was a
fire in Baghdad as well. And
		
00:27:23 --> 00:27:27
			even some of the major palaces
there were also burned down, not
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:32
			just their palaces were burned
down, but to Roberto rusafa to
		
00:27:32 --> 00:27:36
			Roberto rusafa. And unfortunate
I've never been to Baghdad at some
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:39
			were always have liked to have
gone to see much of this history
		
00:27:39 --> 00:27:41
			because there's just so much
history. And unfortunately, it
		
00:27:41 --> 00:27:45
			seems like many things have been
destroyed, which is really sad
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:51
			because Iraq has is the cradle of
civilization. That's where much of
		
00:27:51 --> 00:27:57
			the world civilization may have
started from as such. And there's
		
00:27:57 --> 00:28:01
			a lot of history there. That is,
you know, Islamic and pre Islamic.
		
00:28:01 --> 00:28:04
			There's a lot of Islamic history
there as well, because that is a
		
00:28:04 --> 00:28:07
			an Islamic city. It's a new city,
there was no such thing as
		
00:28:07 --> 00:28:09
			Baghdad. During the time the
prophets of Allah Islam is
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:14
			established later on. Likewise,
Kufa and Basra these were later
		
00:28:14 --> 00:28:18
			cities that were established by
the sahaba. So there's a there's a
		
00:28:18 --> 00:28:20
			lot there. But anyway, even
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:25
			the store battle rusafa, which was
the famous graveyard, the Royal
		
00:28:25 --> 00:28:28
			graveyard, of all of the buses,
they'd been burying their dead in
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:31
			there for years, you know,
throughout their career, caliphate
		
00:28:31 --> 00:28:36
			period, even that was burned down.
So there was a
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:44
			poem that was seen on the walls,
which said, that this is the man
		
00:28:44 --> 00:28:50
			who Abbas the tests of the time,
have overcome them and have run
		
00:28:50 --> 00:28:56
			over them. So much so that nothing
has been left, that not only their
		
00:28:56 --> 00:29:00
			living have been killed, but even
their dead have been burned. And
		
00:29:00 --> 00:29:04
			that's the severe punishment from
Allah subhanaw taala, that your
		
00:29:04 --> 00:29:08
			graveyards also being attacked,
and so much death occurred in
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:15
			Baghdad. And that was also the
ending of the Abbas empire. But
		
00:29:15 --> 00:29:19
			for Allah subhanaw taala is all
praise in the beginning. And at
		
00:29:19 --> 00:29:24
			the end, because he raises who he
wishes, and honors who he wishes
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:28
			and degrades and humiliates who he
wishes. This is obviously not the
		
00:29:28 --> 00:29:33
			fire that will come. This was not
the fire that is still to come at
		
00:29:33 --> 00:29:36
			the end of time. There are a
number of Hadith which speak about
		
00:29:36 --> 00:29:42
			a fire that will erupt, that will
drive people to their place of
		
00:29:42 --> 00:29:44
			gathering. Because the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:49
			in a number of Hadith that a fire
will erupt, which will drive the
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:52
			people to their place of
gathering. So you know what, what
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:58
			we're supposed to happen is that
after everybody has died, and the
		
00:29:58 --> 00:29:59
			trumpet has been blown
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:03
			The horn will be blown again and
then people will come out of their
		
00:30:03 --> 00:30:07
			graves and will be given the new
life. Now the reckoning is
		
00:30:07 --> 00:30:10
			supposed to begin the hisab is
supposed to start. So from
		
00:30:10 --> 00:30:13
			wherever people are around the
world after the world has after
		
00:30:13 --> 00:30:17
			the land or the land in the world
has become all flat, and all the
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:22
			mountains have been leveled, a
fire will erupt, that will drive
		
00:30:22 --> 00:30:26
			the people in the direction of the
mashup of the gathering place. And
		
00:30:26 --> 00:30:28
			according to most scholars, that
could be the maidin of our
		
00:30:28 --> 00:30:32
			efforts. Some say it's in Sham
Allah knows best. But it's not
		
00:30:32 --> 00:30:37
			that fire we're speaking about
this fire was clearly one that was
		
00:30:37 --> 00:30:39
			spoken about by the promise of
load is seldom to have occurred
		
00:30:39 --> 00:30:43
			earlier on, which which occurred.
That's why one of the orientalist
		
00:30:43 --> 00:30:48
			he talks about this, you know,
again, he said it this fire burst
		
00:30:48 --> 00:30:51
			out in the direction of hijas. It
resembled a vast city with a
		
00:30:51 --> 00:30:55
			turreted and battlement fought, in
which men appeared drawing the
		
00:30:55 --> 00:30:59
			flames about as it were wide it
sought burned and melted like a
		
00:30:59 --> 00:31:02
			sea everything that came in its
way, present near Red and bluish
		
00:31:02 --> 00:31:06
			stream bursting from it ran close
to El Medina, and at the same
		
00:31:06 --> 00:31:09
			time, the city was found by a
cooling wind from the same
		
00:31:09 --> 00:31:15
			direction. The eruption lasted
about 52 days at its fiery Zenith.
		
00:31:15 --> 00:31:19
			Those further afield also
witnessed strange sights with
		
00:31:19 --> 00:31:22
			reboot reports of the light of the
eruption visible in Makkah and
		
00:31:22 --> 00:31:26
			tamer six days journey from
Medina. Historians relayed that
		
00:31:26 --> 00:31:30
			the depth of the lava flow was a
long Spears length around three
		
00:31:30 --> 00:31:35
			meters high, and that it flowed
like a red blue boiling river
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:39
			carrying in his way gravel stones
and trees with thundering noises
		
00:31:39 --> 00:31:42
			of cluster learning asserts that
the fire now Castellani never saw
		
00:31:42 --> 00:31:46
			this, because he was in Makkah
Makara, Rama, but he relates to
		
00:31:46 --> 00:31:49
			incidents about this, that a fire
was so fierce that no one could
		
00:31:49 --> 00:31:53
			approach it within two aero
flights. I mean, if it was so
		
00:31:53 --> 00:31:57
			bright, that he could illuminate
something 600 Plus kilometres
		
00:31:57 --> 00:32:02
			away, then you can imagine how can
you get even close to it. So he's
		
00:32:02 --> 00:32:05
			saying that it was so much that
you couldn't approach it to arrow
		
00:32:05 --> 00:32:11
			flights. Aero flight means as far
as an arrow is fired through the
		
00:32:11 --> 00:32:14
			air, so you've got two of those
distances, you couldn't get closer
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:16
			to that because it was just too
hot.
		
00:32:17 --> 00:32:20
			I mean, if it was an intensity
that could melt rocks, and you can
		
00:32:20 --> 00:32:24
			imagine how, how strong and
intense that must have been. The
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:25
			brilliant light
		
00:32:26 --> 00:32:29
			of the volcano made the face of
the country as bright as day.
		
00:32:31 --> 00:32:36
			And the interior of the Haram area
was as if the the sun shone upon
		
00:32:36 --> 00:32:41
			it. The governance citizens prayed
for the safety of the city. And as
		
00:32:41 --> 00:32:45
			the lover approached, many,
including the women children wept
		
00:32:45 --> 00:32:49
			and prayed around the Prophet
Salah Lauryssens tomb. Then the
		
00:32:49 --> 00:32:53
			lover current suddenly turned
north, and the city was spared.
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:56
			And that's the miracle are these
earthquakes that took place
		
00:32:57 --> 00:33:00
			earlier on if we look at it from a
geological point of view, the
		
00:33:00 --> 00:33:05
			earthquake was caused by Paul
Xotic magma welling up through the
		
00:33:05 --> 00:33:09
			cracks in the 40 kilometers thick
crust of the Arabian Peninsula.
		
00:33:09 --> 00:33:12
			Right so it is a thick crust. It
was quickly followed by fiery
		
00:33:12 --> 00:33:15
			volcanic eruptions that lasted
nearly two months, and then
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:19
			spooled lava and ash from a
massive fissure south east of
		
00:33:19 --> 00:33:21
			Medina, throwing up six cones of
cinders
		
00:33:23 --> 00:33:26
			the love of fluid for 23
kilometers which is 15 miles,
		
00:33:28 --> 00:33:33
			threatening to inundate Medina,
the city itself Arabia's largest
		
00:33:33 --> 00:33:36
			love of fuel, which is about
20,000 square kilometer
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:40
			kilometers, which is called Hera
Raha, extends for 300 kilometres
		
00:33:40 --> 00:33:43
			south of the holy city of Madina
Munawwara
		
00:33:44 --> 00:33:48
			for coalescing, lava fields
erupted from offset north
		
00:33:48 --> 00:33:52
			northwest trending vent system
comprising heritor Raha the lava
		
00:33:52 --> 00:33:57
			flow extends about 100 kilometres
west of the axis of that field. So
		
00:33:57 --> 00:34:00
			it will I mean, when you're
talking about 100 kilometres of
		
00:34:00 --> 00:34:05
			flow at the time, and it was very,
very high. You can imagine how
		
00:34:05 --> 00:34:09
			that must have been 6.5 cubic
kilometer of lava flow erupted
		
00:34:09 --> 00:34:13
			from a six aligned scoria cones
and travelled 23 kilometers to
		
00:34:13 --> 00:34:16
			within four kilometers on Madina
Munawwara now, there's a Welsh
		
00:34:16 --> 00:34:20
			geologist, who is been studying
this for all of his life,
		
00:34:20 --> 00:34:25
			basically, and he's trying to
figure out how this thing suddenly
		
00:34:25 --> 00:34:28
			turned just outside Madina
Munawwara how it suddenly turned.
		
00:34:29 --> 00:34:32
			And he says that the only
explanation that he can come with
		
00:34:32 --> 00:34:35
			is that this had to be something
of a miracle. You can't explain it
		
00:34:35 --> 00:34:39
			geologically. So you can't explain
it from in any other way. That it
		
00:34:39 --> 00:34:42
			has to be something of a greater
power that change these things.
		
00:34:43 --> 00:34:47
			And, I mean, all we can say is
that this must have been the way
		
00:34:47 --> 00:34:51
			of the way that people are Medina
acted where they relented, where
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:54
			they repented from their sins. And
I think this obviously teaches us
		
00:34:55 --> 00:34:59
			a major lesson. Because the way we
see it today is that we've got
		
00:34:59 --> 00:35:00
			many things that
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:04
			We fear. But the thing is that
whatever we fear, I don't think
		
00:35:04 --> 00:35:08
			any of that is the severe in terms
of what they were fear or what
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:11
			they were seeing at that time.
Because this was literally
		
00:35:11 --> 00:35:14
			something that could be seen,
though it was a few miles away.
		
00:35:15 --> 00:35:18
			But it was coming in this
direction. And the fear was the
		
00:35:18 --> 00:35:22
			fear was absolutely imminent. You
know, it's like, it's there, it's
		
00:35:22 --> 00:35:25
			going to take you up straight
away, and nothing is going to be
		
00:35:25 --> 00:35:29
			saved. The fears that we have, I
don't personally, I don't think
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:34
			that as serious as this, because
the fears that we have are rather
		
00:35:34 --> 00:35:38
			vague. Sometimes they are, you
know, some border on conspiracy
		
00:35:38 --> 00:35:41
			theories, some border on, you
know, things that happened in
		
00:35:41 --> 00:35:45
			other areas, and so on, so forth.
I mean, what I'm trying to say is
		
00:35:45 --> 00:35:50
			that if they could make dua, and
an imminent fear and threat could
		
00:35:50 --> 00:35:57
			be diverted miraculously, then
what is it, that the fears that we
		
00:35:57 --> 00:36:01
			have today cannot be diverted from
us? And how we cannot be, we
		
00:36:01 --> 00:36:02
			cannot feel safe.
		
00:36:03 --> 00:36:06
			I mean, you can never feel safe in
this world, but at least you could
		
00:36:06 --> 00:36:11
			feel some sense of confidence, is
it because our doors are not at
		
00:36:11 --> 00:36:15
			that level yet. I mean, this
required that
		
00:36:16 --> 00:36:20
			this, this required every wrong
thing that the king of the ruler
		
00:36:20 --> 00:36:25
			had done, to give that back to
seek forgiveness for that, number
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:29
			two, to free all of His slaves.
Number three, to just repent,
		
00:36:29 --> 00:36:32
			bring the whole city it can't
happen with one man, it happens
		
00:36:32 --> 00:36:35
			when everybody gets together.
That's what that's what the issue
		
00:36:35 --> 00:36:39
			is. What we have is we have some
people who may be connected to
		
00:36:39 --> 00:36:42
			Allah subhanaw taala, who are
concerned who are making dua for
		
00:36:42 --> 00:36:46
			our brothers in Palestine and Iraq
and other and of honey, Stan, and
		
00:36:46 --> 00:36:50
			in other places. And then we've
got many others who don't care,
		
00:36:50 --> 00:36:53
			because it's not happening to
them. I mean, what did they do
		
00:36:53 --> 00:36:56
			here, they didn't put up stones in
his path because no stone would
		
00:36:56 --> 00:37:02
			work. They didn't put up you know,
then gone, bring and, you know,
		
00:37:02 --> 00:37:05
			dig trenches or anything like that
what they did, they literally they
		
00:37:05 --> 00:37:07
			rushed to the masjid and they
prayed.
		
00:37:08 --> 00:37:11
			They did all spiritual things.
We're not saying don't do a
		
00:37:11 --> 00:37:14
			physical things, but they noticed
and this one, there's nothing you
		
00:37:14 --> 00:37:16
			can do this fires to mighty,
		
00:37:17 --> 00:37:20
			you know, this is going to take
everything in its way. So what
		
00:37:20 --> 00:37:23
			they did was, they did the only
thing that they could do, but they
		
00:37:23 --> 00:37:28
			did it well. So anything that
prevents us from being accepted,
		
00:37:28 --> 00:37:31
			which is one of the main things
that prevents us from being
		
00:37:31 --> 00:37:36
			accepted, is oppression on
somebody else, oppressing somebody
		
00:37:36 --> 00:37:39
			taking somebody's rights. And when
you get rid of that you're clean.
		
00:37:40 --> 00:37:44
			You're connected to Allah subhanaw
taala. Now you're no longer a
		
00:37:44 --> 00:37:48
			violin. More likely, you're a
mudroom, you're an oppressed
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:50
			person, because you feel that
there's didn't danger that's
		
00:37:50 --> 00:37:54
			imminent. And Allah subhanaw taala
will listen to your prayer. So if
		
00:37:54 --> 00:37:59
			none Muslim geologists can today
just look at that in amazement,
		
00:37:59 --> 00:38:03
			and think how can that happen? And
geologically is unexplainable.
		
00:38:05 --> 00:38:08
			And the only thing that they could
probably conclude is that this
		
00:38:08 --> 00:38:12
			seems to be you know, this is a
virtuous city. It's the Haram,
		
00:38:12 --> 00:38:15
			it's the place of the, you know,
one of the centers of the place of
		
00:38:15 --> 00:38:19
			the Muslims, it's where their
prophet Marsala ism is buried, or
		
00:38:19 --> 00:38:20
			you can come to that conclusion,
then
		
00:38:22 --> 00:38:25
			I think it's an eye opener for us.
And these incidents are not spoken
		
00:38:25 --> 00:38:28
			about and told about for nothing.
There's a reason why these things
		
00:38:28 --> 00:38:32
			happen. And the reason why these
things, so basically, I would
		
00:38:32 --> 00:38:35
			probably say, This is what the
history historians have said that,
		
00:38:35 --> 00:38:39
			although this was a major
catastrophe, and probably much of
		
00:38:39 --> 00:38:41
			that land was probably
uninhabited. So know how many
		
00:38:41 --> 00:38:45
			maybe small villages there like
the few small villages that
		
00:38:45 --> 00:38:48
			promises or some spoke about,
maybe they were destroyed in that,
		
00:38:48 --> 00:38:52
			but the people of Medina for them,
although it seemed like a major
		
00:38:52 --> 00:38:56
			punishment, but it was actually a
mercy in this case. Because what
		
00:38:56 --> 00:38:58
			did that do? What do you think
this did for the people of Madina?
		
00:38:58 --> 00:38:59
			Munawwara
		
00:39:00 --> 00:39:05
			it created a situation for them,
in which they became purified of
		
00:39:05 --> 00:39:08
			their sins. I mean, can you
imagine if you were there, that
		
00:39:08 --> 00:39:10
			every single man, woman and child
on there, what do you think
		
00:39:10 --> 00:39:12
			they're going to be praying about?
Do you think there's going to be
		
00:39:12 --> 00:39:16
			any uncensored was there? I mean,
they were going to be praying and
		
00:39:16 --> 00:39:19
			crying their hearts out. So you
can imagine that that's where it
		
00:39:19 --> 00:39:24
			requires, that this is somewhere
where we can get an idea from that
		
00:39:24 --> 00:39:29
			what is required to cry your heart
out to repent, in all seriousness,
		
00:39:29 --> 00:39:33
			and in all earnestness, realizing
that this fear is going to be upon
		
00:39:33 --> 00:39:33
			us.
		
00:39:35 --> 00:39:38
			I mean, just put yourself in
Medina, Miranda, what would you
		
00:39:38 --> 00:39:38
			do?
		
00:39:39 --> 00:39:42
			You could run away but your
entire, you know, whoever's left
		
00:39:42 --> 00:39:44
			there, your positions, everything
would be gone. So the thing you do
		
00:39:44 --> 00:39:48
			is the trust in Allah subhanaw
taala. I mean, the people of
		
00:39:48 --> 00:39:52
			Pompeii didn't do that. When Mount
Vesuvius arose. I mean, that was
		
00:39:52 --> 00:39:56
			something else because Allah knows
best what was happening there. But
		
00:39:56 --> 00:39:59
			this is a this is an example where
a massive mirror
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:02
			takes place. May Allah subhanho wa
Taala give us to April, May Allah
		
00:40:02 --> 00:40:06
			subhanho wa Taala give us the
ability to learn from these things
		
00:40:06 --> 00:40:08
			for it to be a sign because
seriously, I see a major sign in
		
00:40:08 --> 00:40:12
			this that we all need to make dua
together for these things and
		
00:40:12 --> 00:40:16
			collectively become better people.
May Allah subhanaw taala give us
		
00:40:16 --> 00:40:21
			the trophy. The point of a lecture
is to encourage people to act to
		
00:40:21 --> 00:40:26
			get further an inspiration, and
encouragement, persuasion. The
		
00:40:26 --> 00:40:30
			next step is to actually start
learning seriously to read books
		
00:40:30 --> 00:40:33
			to take on a subject of Islam and
to understand all the subjects of
		
00:40:33 --> 00:40:37
			Islam at least at the basic level,
so that we can become more aware
		
00:40:37 --> 00:40:41
			of what our Dean wants from us.
And that's why we started Rayyan
		
00:40:41 --> 00:40:46
			courses so that you can actually
take organize lectures on demand
		
00:40:46 --> 00:40:49
			whenever you have free time,
especially for example, the
		
00:40:49 --> 00:40:53
			Islamic essentials course that we
have on there, the Islamic
		
00:40:53 --> 00:40:58
			essentials certificate, which you
take 20 Short modules, and at the
		
00:40:58 --> 00:41:03
			end of that inshallah you will
have gotten the basics of most of
		
00:41:03 --> 00:41:06
			the most important topics in Islam
and you'll feel a lot more
		
00:41:06 --> 00:41:08
			confident. You don't have to leave
lectures behind you can continue
		
00:41:08 --> 00:41:11
			to live, you know, to listen to
lectures, but you need to have
		
00:41:11 --> 00:41:15
			this more sustained study as well
as local law here in Santa Monica
		
00:41:15 --> 00:41:16
			when I have to live record
