didn't know serine or the the wasafi of Allah was seldom at the
Sleeman Cathy urine in Iommi Deen. So alhamdulillah Nice to be with
you again for the Tafseer of the 15 Jews of the Quran, we're nearly
at our halfway mark Hamdulillah. So, today in the 15 Jews, there
are two chapters two sources that are being covered. One is the
entire Bani Israel, which is also in some must haves. It's also
named a pseudo Sr. and that's relevant is two names. So total SR
and Surah. Benny is La eel.
And that is
for about 111 verses. And then after that, a very prominent
Surah, which a lot of people are used to reading week in and week
out, is sort of dull Gaff. So most of sort of the gap will also be
covered today. And there's a small section of circle that is left for
the 16th juice, which will inshallah be tomorrow. So today we
cover Bani Israel, Israel, and we cover most of Surah Tilka have
insha Allah. So both both the Saudis the Maquis Surah Surah. Two
Israa is murky surah. It has 111 verses and it split up into about
12 sections 12 themes in general themes I mentioned. The names that
I mentioned, Israel and Bani Israel are both relevant because
it actually begins with the first verse
Subhan Allah the SRB Abdi
actually starts with a discussion of the SR. And then several verses
after that they are about the Bani Israel, the Bani Israel or the
Israelites the children of Israel Israelis Iacobelli Salaam. So the
children of Iacobelli salaam that's what they called afterwards
Benny Sri evil to maybe differentiate them from other
tribes that came from Ibrahim alayhi salam, the bene Ismar eel
we have, which is who the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam came
from.
However, to go back to the other name, which is Surah Now Sr.
Use three is surah in Arabic means to take somebody by night.
Basically take somebody on a night journey. So Allah says, Glorified
is He who took his servant by night, from the Masjid Al haram to
Masjid Al Aqsa around which we had blessed its environment so that we
could show him from our signs. And
Allah subhanaw taala is all hearing and all seeing. So the
discussion here is about the night journey from maca, maca, Rama to
Jerusalem, though many ahaadeeth will detail the story much
further. And there are allusions to that not necessarily clear cut
absolutely explicit, but there are definitely allusions to that in
certain najem when Najmi either however, male dollars or Hebrew
kumana hava, which we'll be looking at, Inshallah, when we get
to those last parts of the Quran. So there's two parts of this
miraculous journey of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. One is
that he was taken on this Baroque with everybody, Saddam, he was
taken to from Masjidul haram, which is in Makkah, he was
sleeping, there's a long story, exactly where he was, and so on.
And then the discussion of the angels, his heart, his heart being
washed and cleansed another time. And then he was taken on this
night journey, he goes, he stops in a few places in between as
well. And then he gets to Jerusalem. There he does, he sees
what he has to see he meets the other prophets. There's a in Sahih
Muslim, this whole discussion of him leaving the other Gambia and
prophets in prayer, and then after that they carry on, right. And
there's a whole discussion of exactly where they had tied the
Baroque as well. And there's significance of that still, if you
go there today, the Baroque wall is there, and so on. And then it
goes up to the heavens. So now this part going up to the heavens
is actually called the Mirage. Because as I said, a sloth is a
night journey. So while the night journey could refer to everything,
because it all happened in the night, and it happened very
quickly, in terms of a worldly sense. You know, it happened very
quickly though, is a whole journey. And from Masjid Al Aqsa
up to the heavens is generally referred to as the Mirage,
particularly because the word Mirage refers to ascension, right?
So when you're talking about ascension, that means to go up to
elevate to climb up. So he went on the Baroque up to where no other
human had ever been to. And then he continued to wear the abode of
the angels throughout the seven heavens. And then after that, he
came to one place beyond the seven heavens after we Gibreel stopped
with Gibreel, Allah Islam even was the closest and the greatest of
the angels is that I can't go further from here, the prophets
Allah and then proceeded alone, to meet with Allah subhanho wa taala.
And according to the majority view, among the Sahaba, as well,
he actually saw Allah subhanaw taala on that night, not just
spoke to him, he actually saw ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada on each of
the, and also on each of the heavens, the seven heavens, he saw
different he met with different prophets, you can read about all
of that in the tough series and in the Hadith, and in books about the
Mirage. So
just a few things that need to be explained here is that this was
not in asleep. This was not a dream, the prophets Allah isn't
has been all over the place in dreams, meaning he's been to
paradise. He's seen lots of things like that. And if it was just a
dream that he was claiming, then nobody would have made a big hoo
ha, because when he came back, Abuja, he tried to make fun of
this. And he tried to rally people against his thinking this was an
absurdity until eventually he was Professor lorrison was put in one
place. And there were some people who had visited Jerusalem, right.
And they were told to ask him to describe Jerusalem. And he said, I
didn't know because I only visited that night. And I didn't really go
and inspect it, take a review of it or take a survey of it. But
Allah subhanho wa Taala put for me a vision of Jerusalem like almost
like you can imagine the 3d modeling nowadays, right today.
And he says I was able to answer every one of their questions.
Amazing, right. So it was definitely done. And that's the
belief of the hallucinogen that it was done something physically with
his body, though it was quite a journey of a quite a distance,
like hundreds of miles. But that was all done within a few hours.
He was back in Macomb, Oklahoma. By the morning he was back there
already. Siddiq, Radi Allahu, and that's when he got his name,
because when he was asked about this, he said, I absolutely
believe if he said so I believe in. He's called Siddiq, which
means the absolutely voracious, voracious one. So the point is
that this is a miracle of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, and this was really an honor for the voice of reason that
he'd been where nobody moves. I'm really wanted to see Allah. He
wasn't he wasn't made to see Allah subhanaw taala in this world, but
the prophets Allah son got to see him and a lot of other things. And
there's lots of other discussions about that. And that's obviously
where we get our solid 50 praise from as well. Right What a gift on
what an auspicious journey from one auspicious Lord frog to an
auspicious profit
Now that talks about the significance of prayer. Now, if we
move on
the main points of the Surah, which we want to just quickly go
through, is, are the following. So the first big discussion there,
part of the verses that I read about the Bani Israel. Now this
one is kind of talking about their history, not just about what they
were doing at that time, the three Jewish tribes that were living
among, in Madina Munawwara, it wasn't just about the issues with
them, but it actually starts from a big history going back up. Now,
they, in the history, according to the Bible has this big discussion
about this as well. They've had a huge discussion of a lot of
corruption that they've caused that caused in different places.
And because of that, Allah subhanaw taala, says that we lead
to Sedona fill out of the mandala thing. I mean, there was only more
than that. He said that there are two times when you will cause a
lot of corruption in the land, and then you will act in great
haughtiness and arrogance and tyranny. And when that happens,
Allah subhanaw taala says in verse five, when the first instance of
that kind of first major instance because Allah always forgives,
forgives, tolerates, tolerates for bears for bass was such a such a
long time, until it gets just over the top. That's when Allah
subhanaw taala comes in, to seize people. And that's why I remember
once it is very important to know about these ones in our class,
there was a student who sold his mess around, and one day he was
messing around and move this up, the teacher came in, and he got
caught. And he said, it was my first time. And this one was this,
it says even Allah does not catch somebody for the first time. Allah
lets people go for so many times. Right? Until eventually catches
them. Right. Subhanallah anyway, so then Allah subhana wa, wa Taala
speaks about this. So there are several instances in the history
of saying that there's twice that you're going to cause corruption
and then you will be punished for that. Right? You will be wiped
out. I mean, you will be really, really punished. Right? totally
eradicated, Jerusalem was destroyed. And there were several
instances where this happened. The prominent ones I'll just quickly
mentioned, because people, this is an interesting point here. So the
first of them
is
Allahu Akbar has had, they've had a long history of deviation at
that time. And that's what the Quran is referring to. So which
are the two events that the Quran is referring to is talking about
two events here, but then it says that if you do it again, we'll do
it again as well. So it's not like restricted to two events. But
before the Quran was revealed, there are which events are these
the first one probably has to be the invasion of Nebuchadnezzar
that he's a tyrant of Babylon, he came in and Subhanallah this took
place during the Prophet Jeremiah's time, right? And he
tried to he tried his best to bring people back to the straight
path, but it wasn't working. And then finally in 587, BC, so 587
Before the silent alarm, this Nebuchadnezzar comes in invades
Jerusalem, demolishes Baytril, muchness in Jerusalem, right, and
annihilates a huge number of the Israelites. And he took the others
as capitalist captives to Babylon, Babylon, Iraq, that area. Of
course, they learned a lesson from this. And after a long period in
exile, Cyrus who is one of the leaders of the emperor of the of
Persia, right? he conquers Babylon, and he allows the allows
the Israelites to go back to Jerusalem and then they build.
They build Betamax again. The second event, what one does that
refer to? Allah knows best, but there's one another one which was
an invasion by and to cuss. If epi famous, I think that's how you say
it. Right? The Greek tyrant, he invades Jerusalem in 175. So
that's just another 400 years later, right. When the Israelites
went back to their misdeeds, and again, similar fate that they
suffered. The one that I've read read about came after the ISA Ali
salaam, right, which I read a whole history about, right. And
that is the one which may possibly according to other x digits, they
believe that this is the second one. That is by the emperor Titus,
his father V. specim. He was the Roman emperor, he had sent Titus.
Titus then became the emperor. This was in 70, ce 70, after
Izadi, salaam, and SubhanAllah. That was a destruction. That was
the destruction and he took back so much of the, of the treasures
of Jerusalem, and there's been people trying to look for it.
Where is that? Exactly? Because is it in Carthage in Tunisia? Is it
in Rome? Because in Rome, there's there's a victory arch that was
built by Titus, I think, of a specimen under which they
basically and it has the whole possession. Nobody's allowed to go
through that right now as instruction of the Israeli
government, because it's
glorifying the destruction of Jerusalem right of the time, but
it could be any of these but the main point that we have to
understand here is Allah subhanho wa Taala says we're in Earth dome
rodina
would you enlarge your handle carefully and Hasina which is in
verse eight if you're going to carry on and you do it again, you
return to it. Well, we'll do the same thing again.
So, of course this is something for all of us to learn a lesson
from. And then the next point that ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada
mentions here there's several discussions in here which you can
inshallah read for yourself, but what you will find is the
read reverence for the Quran again, the Quran IDE Rokita but
GAFA enough sickle yo Malaga Siva and then there's the discussion of
a Kulu insaan in alumna who thought era houfy Okay. Right,
which is verse 12.
Actually, before that,
were holy war candle inside or I July human, the human has been
built with hasty can't wait to kind of have enough patience. This
is generally a lot of human struggle with haste, with no
patience rather. So that's mentioned here. Now what's
interesting is that from after the discussion of the Bani Israel,
there are approximately 13 Islamic
an etiquette and a HELOC that I mentioned that Muslims should
adorn themselves by and imbibe this themselves with. These are a
lot of these discussions of collective adab. Right, a lot of
these collective add up. And what you have to understand is that any
nation only a sense and elevates itself and becomes honorable by
the unlock that they show, not necessarily just by killing and
murder, that doesn't get to the heart, but when somebody does it
with with o'clock, that's what really matters. So if you look at
verses 23 to 39, that's when you're going to see all of these,
all of this discussion 23 to 39. So Allah subhanho wa Taala says
Wakasa Buka Allah caribou Illa iya will Wiley Dany Sana, this is the
famous verse of obedience to parents speaking about where if
your parents especially if they get to old age, right you don't
want to this is where it uses onomatopoeia in the Quran. Right
where it uses a word to say don't even say woof. Which means
obviously anything worse, you can't say, but don't even say off
to your parents, right? You can dis agree with them politely and
respectfully, but you cannot show any disobedience you cannot show
any bad manners and disobedience you always have to show them that
love because of the fact that they gave you birth they brought you
into the world. Again, this is something which is often
discussed, I'm not going to discuss it again. But essentially
the first of these Allah can add up and the Islamic rights that are
discussed is don't do not worship anybody that Allah subhanaw taala
number two, obedience and kindness excellence to parents. Number
three, I'm just going to quickly go through you can find them in
the verses being good to your, to your relatives, with faqeer and
the poor people, the Musa feeding travelers to look out for them.
And then Allah subhanho wa Taala says, wala tubers data with Vera,
do not be extravagant, do not waste money and do not basically
use your wealth in the Haram essentially because such people
are the brothers of the shaytaan who are extravagant like that just
because Allah has given them a lot they actually use it in the
disobedience of Allah subhanho wa Taala then Allah subhanho wa Taala
talks about Don't be miserly either, but spend when you need to
spend don't open your hand up so much that then you know you spend
so much then you have nothing left and then you're remorseful. But
then also Do not be so tight as well. Do not kill your children
out of fear of poverty.
Then some of the major things Dr. Neff salah the Haram Allahu Allah
will hug verse 33 Do not kill people basically do not kill
people unless there's a right to do so. Do not go close to the
wealth of your team. Right? Fulfill your covenants and make
sure that you give the right scale and measure was the nobility
Stossel Mr. Clean vertical HydroMax and with that we're verse
35. And then the other thing is don't go off the things which you
do not have knowledge about and then just make a big room rumor
about it. rumor mongering, slandering, tail bearing those
kinds of things just avoid that well attack family Celica here
because everything is going to be asked about Allah says your sight
hearing and everything. And then another one is that do not
basically swagger around the earth in arrogance don't basically as as
a bragging individual, go and exalt yourself and and stomped
around on the ground because Allah says you're not going to be
tear the tear the ground like what are you trying to do? You're going
to you're going against the Gulf ground or something like that. And
you can't even get in height to the to the mountains anyway. So
all of that is discussed. Then after that there's a few other
discussions
about rejection of the Hereafter, and resurrection Allah subhanaw
taala then speaks about that again. But then the main thing
about this Allah mentioned this several times, is that what
occurred Serafina if he had Al Quran Ilyas record Serafina
Serafina Serafina Serafina means we've provided you so many
examples we've discussed so many subjects in the Quran, Leah
Caruso, they can take heat, they can learn from it. But
unfortunately if their eyes are closed if their hearts are closed,
why am I sad do Mila know for all they just increase in their
hatred? Right for it. There are numerous other discussions about
the Quran, how they react to the Quran and so on. Another verse
which is important vocabulary by the pool Realty here accent I tell
my servants that they should say that which is excellent and good,
don't say bad things. Now another thing which is very interesting
most of the time Allah says co laborer, the Rebbe, the EBA, the
by my servants, generally that's talking about believers. Now, if
you look at the beginning of the chapter, right Allah subhanaw
taala says, for Elijah a white doula Houma, bafna Alikum a burden
learner when that first instance of their rebellion and that and
they access began of the Bani Israel, we sent upon them servants
learner of ours, that belong to us that will also ours. Why saying
Why didn't you just say bafna Alikum Eva Duna or Eva Donna
rather like our servants? Why not clearly just our servants, as he
says it when it comes to believers? This is a very subtle
point. And what it could be because these people were non
Muslim. They were disbelievers, so they still servants. So they are
mice. They're still servants of mine, but they're not my servants
as Ill they're not behaving like my servants, but every other place
you see what Coulier a birdie Yaiba the Alladhina Ashraf, well,
that's very interesting. If you look at, you can read all of this
for yourself. I'll mention a few more points before we finish the
surah. But this part here is very interesting.
Again, Allah subhanaw taala in verse 89, says, Well, I've got
Serafina leanness if he had an Qurani min Cooley methyl, we
basically presented all types of parables and examples and samples
in the Quran, but the majority of people they've denied. Now look at
this, these were the challenges sorry, these were the
the challenges by the people of Makkah, similar to the challenges
of the people of the past, to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, they asking for the following from verse 91, we're not
going to believe in you.
Right, until you show us the following miracles number one,
that you cause a spring to gush forth from the ground. Now in
Makkah, that will be very useful. So like, cause that to happen,
number two, or that you have this palm orchard, or a vine orchard,
and you cause a stream or a river to flow in between? Or that you
cause a part of the piece from the heavens to drop down upon us or to
skater summer aka Santa Elena key seven? Or that you let us visit
the angels or let the angels visit us. Right? Or that you have a
house made of gold just getting crazy like if you're so if you if
you say that you have helped from the unseen and so on, why don't
you just get a house that's made of gold, or that you ascend to the
heaven. Now even if you ascend to the heaven, when a note minute
Iraqi we're still not going to agree with your ascension, Hatha
tunas de la, la Nikita Nakuru
until you bring us like a physical book down from there, you go off
in nothing and you come back down with a book Subhanallah I don't
know if there's any relevance in this but the concept of Israel or
the journey of Israel is mentioned in the same chapter in which they
challenging him to go up to the heavens, he went up to the
heavens, verse verses 8288 89 They talk again, they speak about the
truthfulness of the Quran and some of the
objectives of the Quran so on verse 61, or 65, is what occurred
Corona Bani Adam, this is where Allah subhanho wa Taala ennobles
the human being over all other creatures, we can see that in
practice. The other day, I had a question in I was at a program I
think it was last year two years ago. And this literally this guy
goes, Why do human why do we think we're superior to all other
animals? Allah subhanaw taala said so in the Quran is given us
basically disposable everything in the world. We mustn't abuse it,
though we must look after things. Right. Then there's the discussion
of Musa alayhis salam and Pharaoh that comes from 101 200 and 104.
Then Allah subhanho wa Taala mentions one of the benefits of
bringing the Quran bit by bit and not all at once because they say
Why don't you just bring it all at once? What investment
In 606, Allah says what Quran and Farakka now who, right this is the
Quran with this we've brought piecemeal bit by bit later Kawada
nasty Allah book
so that you can read it to people bit by bit slowly, slowly, right
when Allah Hooton Zilla we are going to reveal the whole thing,
you know, whether you believe it or not Allah subhanaw taala
carries on. Just a few other things before we finish this
shorter of that I want to point out is, yeah, this was Serafina
this concept is quite a bit when it comes to Zina, Allah subhanaw
taala in the in the Quran doesn't say what that is noon, generally,
generally, the discussion is, well, a Takara, Xena do not get
close, because it's a very slippery slope. That's just the
way the human psyche is made, that as soon as you see something that
attracts, you don't even start there. Because that very easy from
the look to the discussion, to the text message to the touch. And
then it carries on. So be very careful about obscenity and things
like that stay very far from it, because it's a very, very slippery
slope. Allah subhanaw taala in verse 18, and 19 speaks about if
you want the world we can give it to you. It's not a problem. But
remember, the real one is of the Hereafter, and that is going to be
well more worth your time and your effort into in the future. Then
just another one Subhanallah these verses have these verses, you can
see the Gela of Allah, the Majesty of Allah, this is verse
72 773 7475. I mean, it starts from 72, which is, woman can if
you had the armor for Wafula here with the armor or the Lusa,
Beulah, those who are going to be blind in this world, they're going
to be blind in the hereafter that clearly doesn't mean physically
blind, it means
blind from the truth, then they're going to be blind here after they
won't have the goodness and they won't be able see the goodness.
However, then Allah subhanaw taala says in this really awesome way,
that
if we had not protected essentially and we've not if we'd
not protected you in the different ways, then it's possible. That
letter cannot lay him che and kalila you could have inclined
towards them because they used to give you lots of offers that will
believe if you do this if you make concessions if you do that. And if
Allah is saying that if that's obviously a big struggle and a big
tension, a big, big pressure on the prophets of Allah Islam, but
then Allah sounds a warning. It says if you then did inclined to
them, if zakenna caldera fell higher the well there fell mama de
su Mala TGD laka, Elena zero, then we would have given you to taste
double the dunya double the life and double the death. And then you
would not find anybody to assist you.
From us. And subhanAllah that's to the Prophet salallahu Salam. So
when Allah comes to the Jellal, then who are we? Where are we in
this? May Allah subhanaw taala allow us to fulfill our
responsibilities. Then the famous verse you will find in 81 Wakulla
Jaya al Haku was called battle right in the loyalty Lacan as a
hookah, which is that when the truth comes, generally the battle
dissipates. But the truth has to come in the right way. You see
this verse of quoted, just wanted to point it out to you where it
is.
There is obviously the discussion of the rule. This is the one where
it's like, what is the spirit? What is the spirit, this rule? The
Jews had this question, or rather, they gave the question to the
people of Makkah, the people of Makkah asked the question, this
was one of the questions. Another of the questions is who's the
codename? Right? So Allah subhanaw taala answers that one. And here
he says that you've only got to been given a bit of knowledge,
right? It's a man, it's from the command of my Lord. But you've
only given given a bit of knowledge, some MUFA sitting, have
explained, try to explain saying that this is the bit of knowledge
when others have taken it that you can't understand it. Or the other
interpretation is that this was being said to the people of
Makkah, or the Jews, that you don't have enough knowledge about
this. Right? We've been given a knowledge about it. So there are
various opinions about this. And then finally, we finish the surah
there's a such that at the end of the surah it's a place of
ascension as we know and the beautiful verses which I just love
corridor Allah or either or rock man, core say Allah will say rock
man caught on team which whichever Whichever name you want, a method
roofer will smell house now, Whichever name you call on him
with, for him are the beautiful names. That's has to be one
wonderful verse of mine. I just really enjoy that verse. And then
Allah ends the surah by talking about coding hamdulillah Hila de
la mia target what are the what am your collusion econ Phil milk?
Well, I'm Nicola Willie, human Zuly Baka bear with Akira
Alhamdulillah. Now we start sortal Calf
Surah to calf has a lot of discussion.
And we will try to do our best to fit in as much of it as possible
in the time that we have. So it will go
is also a Maki, Surah 110 verses, we're going back to the hundreds
here, these are the mean, we had a few songs which were slightly
shorter, but now we're back to the hundreds. And it has 12 sections
in there. It's called skeletal calf, because obviously it's got a
very prominent story in there about the people of the cave. And
calf means a cave. So these are the people of the cave. This is
again another of us. It's one of the few sources of the Quran
that starts with Alhamdulillah with the praise of Allah subhanaw
taala you probably know another which is Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil
Alameen. Then you've got Surah Al Anam, which we've read already
Surah Al Anam. Then they swear to Sabah which is coming and the
spiritual falter Surah till felted. All of these these are the
five sutras in the Quran which start with Alhamdulillah right
with the praise of Allah in that sense, there is the Musa Behat we
start with Subhanallah like the previous one Subhanallah, the
Astra that was from the Musa Behat
you start beho Subhan Allah and so on. Now Surah Al Capp is one of
those among the many students that we've done, which has a lot of
virtues
associated with it in the in the Hadith of the Prophet salallahu
Salam, for example, a hadith that Imam Muslim, Imam Nissei Imam
Muhammad they all relate
from Buddha or the Allahu anhu, saying that
whoever recites Surah to the last 10 verses of Surah till calf,
there'll be protected from the fitna of the jewel. There's
another version which says the first 10 verses spiritual calf,
but then why do people read the whole thing? There's another one
another Hadith enriches the Prophet sallallahu sallam said
that whoever recites a little calf on a Friday, whether at nighttime
or daytime, will illuminate for him his entire week until the next
Friday will provide light. What does this mean? Is it a spiritual
light, we can't deny a spiritual light. How is this protection
happening? So clearly, Inshallah, just by reading it, there's a
benefit of it. So at minimum, try to read at least the first 10 last
10 verses. But if you can recite the whole and try to eventually
memorize it away, but one of the secrets of this chapter, Secrets
of the surah as highlighted by numerous scholars, and there's a
really wonderful book called
faith versus materialism, it's been translated into English
called Faith, faith, faith versus materialism. And in order it was
already written in order, it's called Malika myrica, Eman,
Ahmadiyya et,
which basically is maracatu EMA and you will Madea Madea means
materialism and Ema. And maraka means the the tension or the
constant battle between
materialism and faith. And subhanAllah. I don't know about I
can't speak for previous
generations and previous historical times, but I'm sure as
much as the this surah is relevant today, like really relevant today.
Right? It must have been that relevant, but I find extreme
relevance and although I find extremely, because right now,
there's a huge materialism a big, big issue. It's always been an
issue, but now with capitalism, consumerism,
right? Materialism is a big issue. Right? Hugely, I mean, people's
dependency on that we've got so much I mean, materials, and in
general is just really advanced. So this surah anybody who ponders
over it, there's enough food in there for somebody to be guided in
their understanding of what happens in this life. And the
general challenge between the dunya and its materialism, right
the world and its materialism and sticking and adhering to your
faith. That is essentially the main theme of spiritual care. And
sort of the, the calf story, in particular is is one of those
stories that drive that point home and highlight it. So when people
read it, they should read it, and if they can, they should start to
understand it and that will have a much more profound effect, because
they will have a direct inshallah benefit. So it starts off
Alhamdulillah Hilary unzila, IBD, Hill Kitab all praises to Allah
who revealed upon his servant the book, while a major Allah wherever
there's no crookedness in it, again, discussion about the Quran
so on. And then suddenly,
Allah subhanho wa Taala then starts discussing the the sleepers
of the cave. So let me just quickly highlight to you
the the few stories, there are in here there are you can say there
are more than three stories, but there are probably three larger
stories. And then there are three examples.
At some of the examples can also be considered short stories. So I
would say that well, yeah, I would say there's about four stories. I
would push it to four stories, but many others have said that there's
two
Three main stories in here. And then there's three examples. And
then you'll understand when I talk about them, the first story has to
be, has to be as humble calf. That was humble curve.
These are a few young people, they were young men, right? These are a
few young men at the time of DCs. So this is in the Christian era.
They were followers of Isa Alehissalaam, apparently, and they
were in an area where they were isolators. And they were
persecuting, persecuting the followers of Saudi sunnah. Right.
So these people were passing in follow, these are Islam, many
probably have made changed, or whatever these people in order to
avoid it. Now these are these were from prominent families. If you
look at the diff, see, these young men were from prominent families.
So it would be in very, they're very influential people
apparently, right. That's why they they especially folk, they're
especially targeted. In this case. On the one hand, they're being
promised high posts, lots of wealth, and everything like that
if they become isolated and turn away from Christianity, or turn
away from the belief of Allah SubhanAllah. I don't want to say
Christianity, because Christianity has another meaning now, but in
those days, it meant the pure belief. And on the other hand,
if they didn't agree, then they were being warned of deadly
consequences of being killed, and so on and so forth. So eventually
they decided to take off. So outside of the city outside of the
area, they eventually where they needed to take risks. They found a
series of caves, so they said, Let's just stay in the case for a
while. They stayed in the caves and they fell asleep. And Subhan
Allah, Allah gives them asleep. Right? And as Allah subhanho wa
Taala mentions Willoughby who fiquei for him further Earth and
me I didn't see me in I was the duties are amazing where Allah
says that 309 years that they slept, and the way Allah describes
it for Davina, I mean, I'm fascinated by this, you know, from
a scientific perspective, amazing the way Allah describes it. Allah
says phenomena, learning and Phil Caffee Seanie. And either we
basically, you can say we struck on the ears, it's almost like
saying, we put headphones on the ears, all they could hear was
white sound. You know, when you put sound cancellation on,
literally like that, we just put sound cancellation on. Because if
your eyes are closed, right, and you're used to the light outside,
then that's not going to wake you up. What's going to then wake up
sound sound is probably one of the biggest ways that aside from
moving and shoving someone. So we close their ears, basically. And
eventually they wake up. And they think it's been part of a day or a
day or whatever, you know, like normal sleep, it didn't feel like
how you're going to sleep, how you're going to think you've set
for social long, unless you look at the time or the clock, they had
no clocks. So now they're feeling hungry. I mean, after 300 years,
I'm assuming people will feel hungry. So they give some of their
coins. They had some of their coins, they give it to one of them
and says go surreptitiously go and buy us something. Find a US go to
Ironman fully, it can be risky mean, right?
Well, yet a lot of be careful. While yet a lot of this is verse
19. Well, yet a lot of generally, if you've seen many Muslims, they
write that larger, or they put some sign on it, because
apparently those who have counted the words of the Quran,
they say that is the absolute middle word. That's the peak.
That's kind of like, you know, that's the middle word of the
integral. Allah knows best. I haven't counted myself. But that
is what those who counted it say. So he goes out and he buys
something. Maybe he's seeing there's a difference and then he
tries to give his money. So what kind of money is this? This is
like, olden times money. This is gone. Now. This doesn't work. And
apparently he's got a pleasant surprise. People are all believers
now. Right? So they become heroes when their story is told they
become heroes, And subhanAllah there's numerous things which are
established resurrection of the death is proven from this. A
miracle of faith is proven from this Subhanallah they become
heroes. So now there's a whole discussion which you can read for
yourself, say Hakuna? Well, I mean, then it says
we're going to build a masjid over their graves. Right? There's that
discussion that's happening. And if you look in verse 21, you've
got a Vietnam is there gonna be no I'm gonna call him No, I lay him
banana.
They were discussing what to do. And thus they said, Let's build a
structure on them. Now where is us how we'll have there are at least
three places in the world that claim to have this honor of the
Saarbruecken I've been there I visited two of them. And my father
has visited the third one as well. Two of them are in Turkey one is
in Ephesus. That's the one I haven't visited. The one that I
have visited is in third Seuss Dr. Seuss as they say in Turkey,
Tarsus right in English. And mashallah, there was a great Imam,
the Imam Daniel Atish. His name was May Allah bless him. I don't
know if he's alive still. He took us there and we read the whole of
certain calf that place claims to be it. And the third place which
according to
Many scholars is probably the most authenticated version, right is
the one in Jordan in Amman, just just just outside, or just it's
not too far from the from Thomson, it's a day's journey, half a day's
journey, you can go there. And they've got, I think, a building
next to it and so on. And there's old bones that God knows if those
bones are really from them or not. But Allah knows best, right? Allah
knows best. So the point is that what is what does this story tell
us aside from what we've just mentioned. So what we understand
from here is that struggle for your faith pays off. It's worth
it. There's numerous stories, when you got to struggle for your
faith. And today, there are people in the world
who are struggling for their faith in different different struggles,
some places literally being persecuted, driven out of their
lands, in other places, they just being attacked, left, right and
center in physically and in other places. It's through the media,
right? And in other places, they're being deprived of their
rights and so on. May Allah subhanaw taala bring about respite
but this story and some of the other stories in here provides
huge respite that if Allah can even put somebody to sleep for so
long to survive these things, then it's not too far fetched that
Allah subhanaw taala will help as well. That's why when there's a
choice between something of materialism when it's going
against your faith, we ask Allah to help us choose the faith over
materialism. The second story, which is fast forwarded to the end
of this chapter, right? That is Allah subhanaw taala from verse
6060 says what is called a moose Valley, Fatah hula Bara who had a
Lova major morale Bahraini oh I'm the Hakuba This is a story of Musa
Alexander has not told anywhere else. What remember moosari some
story is repeated throughout. But this story was not told anywhere
else in the Quran and it his specific encounter with Hadith or
Hedorah Radi Allahu alayhi salam, you know, whatever the honorific
is there, but how there are hidden you can say it both ways. And that
comes from the word greenery. And it's possible that his horse,
wherever his horse would move, the know wherever he sat, apparently,
Sinha, Hadith, wherever he sat, greenery would sprout there, there
was a Baraka with him. Maybe that's why it's called her there
are hidden, and apparently, according to many, he may still be
alive. He's drank drank from this water of life. Allah knows best.
Some people have even claimed to have been visited by Him, being
helped by him and so on. Anyway, a story took place him with somebody
else Musa alayhis salam who is the most knowledgeable one. So he said
I am I mean, he's the Prophet. So he thought he's the most
knowledgeable one, based on that understanding with that logic is
that I am Allah subhanho wa Taala didn't like that too much. So he
says, Okay, I'm going to teach you that there's going to be somebody
else who is actually more knowledgeable. The newer told him
to take a journey he takes with him one of his disciples, You
shall be known Joshua. Right. And he's carrying a fish. So that was
their food, apparently. And as they stayed somewhere, the fish
just somehow got out of the basket and disappeared right into the
ocean. And then they carried on. And then he says, Where's the
food? He says, oh, sorry, the food. You know, when we stopped at
that place, that's where the, the fish fish had disappeared. Right,
took off. She said, That's exactly the place we're looking for.
Because he was told to go and see Heather Hadid at a salon at the
confluence of the two oceans, where two oceans meet. Now a lot
of people have tried to understand where this confluence is.
I've seen one of the confluences but I doubt if it's that one. I've
seen the one at Kate point in Cape Town. I don't think it's that one.
This they say it might be close to the Red Sea, which is the sea that
actually opened up and Pharaoh was swallowed up in the Red Sea. I
think I may have mentioned Nile before in one of the earlier
parts. So actually the Red Sea is the one where Mousavi Salam was
saved with his with the Bani Israel from the Pharaoh. Anyway,
so the point is that when they got their Lusardi salaam, when when
they got their Mousavi Sam finds this person is covered up. And so
he is the person he's looking for. So then moosari Sam says that can
I you know very humbly mashallah is saying, Can I stay with you to
benefit from you? Can I learn from what Allah has given you? He says,
No, he says, You can't you're not going to be able to be patient
with me. He already knows him. Like, you're not going to be able
to be patient with me. He says, No, you know, let me be with you.
And so when I won't ask you anything says okay, fine. So they
started, now it comes up the they have to cross a river. So there's
some people that they must have looked at these dignified
individuals because at the end of the day, a profit is going to be a
dignified individual whether you know, is a profit or not, and then
federalism and that generally you have the experience wherever you
go dignified people, people just recognize them. So they let them
on board for free. But then halfway across, he starts putting
some planks off of the wooden boat or ship
for whatever it was a Musa alayhis salaam. He's one of justice. Very
bold, very open, straightforward. That's how Musa Islam is. He says,
they took us for free, and you're
causing defects to their boat.
So eagerly Salam says that, didn't I tell you that Linda study or
Maria Saba, you're not going to be able to be patient with me. I told
you not to ask me anything. So Musa is going okay, okay, you
know, this is my first mistake, lead to kidney b minus c, they
forgot, right? And don't make it more difficult for me. As you will
see in verse 73. It's very straightforward, so you can
actually read it. So then they carried on, and then suddenly
there's this youth, maybe 1112 years old, some young boy, and he
either somehow just kills him. Right? He dies.
Now that's even a bigger, a bigger violation of the norms of the
dunya like, you just go and kill someone. Why did you do that for
right, you've done such a bad thing like a cartel, the knifes in
Zakia pure Self, a pure knifes you've killed. So there again, and
that's the beginning of the next Surah sorry, the next chapter
sixteenths chapter, verse 75. Didn't I tell you that you would
not be able to be patient with me? So now most Allison's said okay,
if I asked you give me one more chance. One more question. Then
I'm out. So then they carry on. And now they come across, they're
hungry. And they come across this area.
And they asked for some food many of them have a Syrian say that
this area is
on takia
Antioch, which is also in southern Turkey. Both are Susan is like
Central southern Turkey. Right? Especially and Turkey is most more
south from Tarsus, if I remember correctly, and they refuse to host
them. So no, we're not going to give you any foods. But then they
find a wall there. And subhanAllah Qaeda Osama is doing some very
strange things. He goes and starts rebuilding the wall is Musa isms.
Like, they're those people took us for free and you damage them about
these guys. They didn't feed us and you're just doing this free
labor for them. So you said okay, that's the end of it half Jacobian
you are bienick This is separation between us. But I will tell you
now why I did those three things because you know, he was there to
teach him right? So he says, okay, as far as the boat, there's a
reason behind all of this reason is that there's this the ruler of
this area, any good boat, he confiscates. So if I did make it a
bit divided, cause it didn't cause it to sink, he just made a
defective, look damaged, so the guy won't take it, I'm actually
doing them a favor. Rather than lose the whole boat, I just
damaged a bit that can fix it up.
Number two, this kid was going to be a bad kid, Allah knew that this
kid was going to be a bad kid. Now there's lots of other related
issues here, which we're not going to go into. And for a discussion
on color, I would suggest you listen to a lecture of mine, which
is about one hour and 15 minutes, right on the whole issue of
freewill, Destiny, predestination, all of that in great detail is
called Don't be depressed, you don't know your future. It's on
zum zum Academy, I really suggest you listen to it, and inshallah
inshallah you will find it satisfying, you know, to give some
understanding of the complicated issue of codon. So, he said, he,
his parents really loved him. And there was this, the fitna aspect
of it was going to be too great that he may have even taken them
eventually, to Cooper and shirk. So now he's gonna die. But Allah
is going to give them much better children Subhan Allah, and the
third one, that okay, the people may have not given us food, but
this wall that I fixed and renovated belong to these two
orphans whose parents were good people, right? They were good
people. And if the rest of the world fell, there was
a treasure wealth from the parents, apparently, that was for
them buried underneath, but they're not old enough to look
after it. When they get older, they'll inshallah find it, I was
doing a good favor for them. So from this story, the understanding
we get is that there's a lot of things that seem to be strange on
the face of it. That's the lesson we learn from it. Right? That on
the face of things, people die, a child dies, there's an accident,
you get wounded, like, what is the benefit in this? There's always a
benefit. Right? There's a person who, you know, maybe
goes into hospital with a small issue.
And they think that's tough. That's bad. But maybe they've been
just saved from a greater problem. Right? Maybe they've been saved
from a greater problem. And only Allah knows. Sometimes we find out
later, what the reasoning for that was, even after 30 years or 40
years or 70 years for that matter. And sometimes we never find
I know that's why whatever has happened, we have to just leave it
to Allah that okay, that's how it was supposed to be. We learn from
our mistakes, but we don't cry over spilt milk forever. And
that's why the Prophet saw some said in a hadith and Muslim Harris
Allah Maya and Farooq Wallah dodges, go and avidly seek out
what is to your benefit, and do not be debilitated and sit back
and be important. Just because five times when I tried nothing
happened. It's those who keep trying, we'll get somewhere if
Allah subhanaw taala wills it. The that was the second story. The
third story, the third prominent story is of dual carnitine, which
is for tomorrow because it's in the section of the verses for the
16 Jews. So we're looking at the story of Little carnitine
tomorrow, Inshallah, those are the three main stories. Now that
quickly the three examples that are provided, they don't take that
long. So one of them the three examples of prominent examples
here that I mentioned, one of them is the story of the two brothers
or two friends, there's different opinions, one of them very
wealthy, they apparently the one story goes is that they both
inherited inherited a huge amount of wealth one invested in the
dunya and eventually had these orchards and had had these these
huge gardens and fruit and servants working for him and this
mashallah, you know, one of the best assets of the day, and the
other one spent in the path of Allah eventually ended up with
nothing. Right? And then he had to go and ask for work to the other
one. Subhanallah and that you learn from you can read about it,
in verse from verses from verse 2032, while the biblical method
alright julaine Give them the example of the two men, one of
them we've given them this orchard garden full of grapes, and then we
we'd surrounded by palm trees, and then in between it we'd given him
crops he had everything that the fruits that the vegetation, he had
water, and there used to be very practical genitalia, that Okaloosa
while I'm talking to minutiae, Wafaa Jonah Hill Allahumma na
hora, and then to boot we also had given him a nice irrigation stream
in between as well. Right? everything together, what more
could you could you want for anyway, he became very arrogant,
he became so and this is a proper example of materialism.
Apparently, according to most orlimar this person was a
believer, nominal believer he believed but he'd been he'd been
he was doing schicke of materialism. Right depending too
much on their material position possession now the other one comes
along and he starts censoring the other one that Why didn't you
invest your money and everything? Why did you give it out in the
path of Allah Look what I've got, and you know what, I don't even
think that day of judgment is going to occur. Now he's in two
minds. And even if I don't know sir at UCLA EMA, right, verse 36.
And even if I do get there then
I'll make it well there as well.
His his brother, or whoever it was, was telling that look, be
careful with this, like, you know, you're doing Cooper with with God,
right, the one who gives you all of this and what would happen
eventually the discussions what would happen if all of this was
just overtaken by a storm or by fire or whatever the case is? And
he was just too arrogant. He didn't listen. And finally that's
exactly what happened. He just got burned down completely. Now he's
wringing his hands, right you're currently Bo Cafe He Allah and
fucka Fie upon what he had spent in there what he'd done in the
Baja we are to an Allah Arusha is just totally the on his roof and
everything just on the ground.
Where you're cool, we are late any language rugby rugby I had said,
Only if I had not committed schicke right and so associated a
partner with my lord, anyone. Now, many of them I said that because
you're supposed to be a believer, what he meant by Shipka is doing
shirk, in partnering material means as an efficacy of their own,
that they have their own efficacy, not necessarily making other gods
as such in that sense. Now, if you look around the world, the example
that we get from here, self reflection, many, many of us may
be guilty of this.
We depend on the paracetamol not on Allah. Not to say we can't take
the paracetamol. We depend on the paycheck coming in. We depend on
our work. We depend on a balance, we depend on food, we depend on
certain people and so on. And again, if all of that done is as a
worldly means that's completely fine. Just not to be done.
At the same level as Allah, Allah should always be our guidance, our
trust, our mainstay, and that's our trust should always be in
Allah. So this guy, this is exact
See what happened to him. The second example is the one that
follows that in the next section, which is from verse 45. Again what
Riblah homicidal hayati dunya so that one was what what did he blow
him? What did he interrupt generally means to strike to hit
by also means to strike an example so in this case it's strike an
example of the life of this world.
So there's no story in here. This is the example you must think of
about the way things work. So look at this he says, Allah says karma
in unzila who Mina summer, just imagine that were
like in Australia right now, they had huge drought a few months ago,
and after the fires and everything and then suddenly when they got
the water, you see people just literally rolling around in that
rain. Like which would pass in England, like you're trying to
stay away from the rain, and they're rolling around during
because they see the value of these farmers and everything. And
without rain, you know, you'd be struggling prices increase and so
on because the crops cannot grow. So anybody can really appreciate
this who are who are well grounded in that sense. It says it's like
the water that we cause to descend from the heavens for tele
tobyhanna virtual out now the various different crops of the
ground get mixed up with that water for us but haha, Shimon
through RIA but eventually So initially, you see the whole
hustle bustle, the greenery, the lushness and you see all the crops
and you get excited because that's food for you. It's like at the
time of Iftar in the daytime you don't want to see food, right?
Don't go shopping when you're fasting because you end up buying
more because your stomach is very greedy, your eyes a very greedy,
greedy and the stomach. If third time when you're about to go for
Iftar and it's going to be Iftar time and all that food is laid out
there. Masha Allah, Allah Baraka is there. Can you see the goodness
you feel? Right, the joy that you feel and the promise of some uses
that right because the same that that joy you feel? There's two
joys for the first thing first one is the joy you feel that the other
joy is when you meet with Allah, if that if the joy of meeting
Allah is going to be even superior to this joy and this joy is so
much of Iftar time Mashallah. But you know, when you see the
lushness and everything when you see all the all the food there
Subhanallah but then afterwards, what happens is that when the rain
doesn't happen, and everything just gets with it, and it's all
dry now, and it becomes such that the wind just blows it away.
That's exactly the way the life is gonna be. You start off, you get
older, you get possessions, but then eventually you die. And then
it's nothing, that every object of the world will become like that.
This is materialism. That's where Allah then says, Allah Allah will
balloon Xena to hayati, dunya, your wealth and your children the
wealth and children just an adornment. They're not for
permanence, the way that you just enjoy your life with but not for
their sake, write this not for their sake. Wolbachia to solve the
how to how you're gonna end the robic the perpetually remaining
pieties but perpetually remaining good actions, those superior in
the sight of your load in terms of reward, and the better things to
be hoped for. And that could be two hours that could be Tasbeeh La
ilaha illallah wa, la sharika lah Mercado hamdu Subhanallah Al hamdu
Lillahi wa la Ilaha illa Allah Allahu Akbar wa doko de la Vela
that is considered to be bulky or solid. Otherwise the other opinion
if you look at it up, see if it's any good deed because they will
take you into the next world and benefit you there in the form of
palaces, gardens, trees, holder in whatever, right, that's the
benefit there.
The other verse I want to point out to you, that's the second
example, that Allah subhanaw taala provides there.
And so you can take all of these things as as Bob enjoy the world,
you know, enjoy your food, enjoy your Iftar enjoy your ice cream,
no problem, right? But just understand that Allah is the One
who provides all the some of these things are only a tool in this
world, the only things to use really it's Allah and the good
deeds that we need to be. We need to we need to be working on the
third example, is basically from verse 50. And that is what is
called natural law. It is Judy Adam FSCJ do Illa bliss, the story
of a bliss and otherwise sums creation, angels being told to
prostrate they all do so except a bliss. And then his arrogance. So
the third message is arrogance. Stay away from arrogance. That's
the third example Allah subhanaw taala provides. And then again,
what are the Serafina if you had a Quran in nursing in Cooley metal,
we have provided all types of examples and anecdotes and stories
in the Quran for them to understand. So to now finish off,
there's just one or two verses I want to point your attention to if
you look at verse 49. That always really strikes me. Right? Because
Subhanallah it says
it reminds me of this nation.
she'd on the day that my deeds will be on the dates that on the
day that the deeds will be displayed. I know for one that
I'll be afraid Subhanallah
well will the Al Kitab This is what Allah says and the books will
be placed, the records will be brought by thermal imagery Mina
Mushrikeen you will see the transgressors. The wrongdoers in
fright scared me Murphy from what's in there.
And then when they actually start reading it, right then it says
that then you start reading it and you start noticing everything. We
are Kulu in a year away, let Anna Molly huddle Kitab they're going
to say Woe to us. What is wrong with this book? What kind of a
record is this law UVA the rosary rotten, walla kabhi rotten Illa
Aqsa, it's not missed any major event or even a small detail.
Smallest minut detail. It's got it all.
What would you do Miami to * did whatever they done the deeds
they will find them present there. And Allah will not oppress
anybody. This was made this was understood always right. There's
been a verse for over 1400 years we understood. But mashallah, now,
Allah has given us a way to understand this like probably
never before.
That is the way simple example of Google tracking everything about
you. You can literally contact Google to release to you, right,
what they've got on you in terms of the sounds that have gone into
your phone. Every single sound bite you can get. Right? Like, if
you've forgotten, you've said something, you had a discussion
with somebody and you forgotten you can probably I was going to
probably send it to you. Right, every single sound bite where
you've been, where your phone has been,
who obviously everyone you've sent messages to, not just that every
time you put the phone on and off. Every time you've checked an app,
which app you check, everything is tracked everything.
Everything. So Allah is just showing us in this world that the
hard drives and the tracking system he has they they are going
to be a far more superior to this. There's several cases where things
are tracked by Allah says wholesaler Murphy's. So do so
everything is being that there's a major hard drive in the heart then
the in the chest, that that is going to be revealed yo magazine
to help Bara, the earth, that is tracking everything as well. The
day when it will tell us news now we understand it. How is the earth
going to tell us news? Well, the way your phone tells you, us about
you.
That's a miracle of the Quran. Right? That's a miracle of the
Quran where Allah subhanaw taala speaks about this. Then of course
now the two angels I mean, subhanAllah the two angels, you
got Google Now the third angel tracking everything you do. Right
for the wrong reason. shaytaan you know,
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar. Anyway, so that's a very prominent
verse you should focus on and I think having said that, the it's
it stops in the middle of that story. Look at the sheet and lucra
we will stop here as well. And we ask Allah to allow us to complete
the rest of it and the rest of the Quran is verbal hamdulillah we've
gone over the high the halfway mark. Right, so we've done 15 Jews
