Hamdulillah we are finishing off sortal Calf today and starting the
60s Jews of the Quran. So we're over the halfway mark in sha
Allah, Allah facilitate the second half as he facilitated the first
half. And in the 60s Jews, there's the rest of sorbitol calf for a
few pages. And then after that comes sort of Maryam, the entire
sort of media which is relatively short surah and then a slightly
larger sort of sort of Taha, which is also entirely in the 60s Jews.
So we're going to be looking at the rest of gaff, and then Meriam
and then Surah surah Taha May Allah subhanho wa Taala
facilitate. So we've discussed a lot of Surah Toka already, that
contains three larger stories that deal with the main topics of
materialism, and materialism and Islam of faith in general. And
they had three, aside from the three major stories, they had the
three you can say,
examples, out of which one was like a story anyway. So we've done
all of those. We've just got the last story left, which is the
codename story. But as we start from verse 75, which is the
beginning of the 60s Jews, that's still a continuation of Musa and
Haider Ali salaam story. Having said that,
if you've already been able to figure out what the lesson is, in
each of the stories relating to faith and materialism
what is the what is the lesson in each of these stories if you've
been able to fit I mean, they weren't about materialism, but
what what aspects Exactly. So I think if you if you think of it
deeply the story of of the curve of the people of the cup, as How
will give those people their story is more about firmness of faith,
firmness on faith in the face of just persecution, or danger, or
aggression. The story or the example of the person with the
with the gardens, that was clearly about wealth, that was clearly
about becoming misguided or deluded by wealth and thinking
that that's going to help you out and give you the security that you
require. And even though the person was a person of faith,
supposedly, then number three, this story of Musa alayhis salam
and Heather Alehissalaam.
We will discuss what the main lesson from that is. And then we
have the story of Little codename. And again, we can discuss the main
story or the main gist of that story is as well related to the
tension between faith and materialism. So anyway, the story
of Musa alayhis salam, which we discussed yesterday anyway, with
Heather Alehissalaam. The idea was that he was going to tell him the
story, and he or well, from vs 79. He tells him the reasoning and I
think we went through the reasoning yesterday anyway, so we
really don't need to discuss this again. He gave him the reasons for
why he did the three different acts. Right. Now, let us start
from West Aluna and Zilker nine, which is verse 83. And that is
where the last story begins. After that, there's a just a round up
and advice of the prophets are loaded to the prophets Allah Islam
and about Allah subhanaw taala. So as everyone can Zilker name Khalsa
at Lu ra caminho Decra. They also ask you remember there are three
questions that the they had asked. The people of MK had gone to the
Bani Israel because they were people of the book and he said
give us some questions that we can ask. So these were three of the
questions, the rule and this and the curve.
The Prophets Allah Allah Islam and well the Quran reveals in detail
two of them and about the rule he gave the general general kind of
answer which we covered yesterday. So now this is dual codename, they
asked you about little Khan nine cool say that I will recite to you
the mention of it that account of it, I will let you know. So the
discussion there is that this was a very long time ago and some
people have maybe even argued that this is a time of the Pangea that
BS basically means when the continents were together Allah
knows best I haven't got enough research to determine that for
myself. But there are some people say that this is when all the
continents were together huge super continent. They call it the
Pangea such so many million years ago, that is basically when
Morocco today is next to New Jersey literally a few miles away
right next to each other if you put the jigsaw together, but
anyway, either way, whatever it is, because the way the discussion
is, and they've taken from that discussion, but it's not
necessarily that that has to be the case. Because what it mentions
about little codename is that Allah subhanaw taala says that
we'd given him you know, one of the really special things about
Zuko nine is that he was kind of the Super King. Like he was the
super ruler over everything, right, and everything was
seemingly under his control. And he was very powerful. But aside
from being powerful, and having everything at his disposal, the
thing that was very interesting about him that sets him apart,
which is basically the lesson to draw from here is that he was a
person of faith. He was a person of consideration. He was a person
of care, right, which is the true traits of a ruler of rule and
ruler. So the to tell you the story in brief.
He first goes hotter either at the barista Baba, he took the he took
a course. And Hatha is a bit of a mockery by shrimps. So you learn
that from verse 86, he goes towards the west first Margarita
Shamsi to basically where the sun is going to set, right. So that's
in the place of the setting of the sun. And he found, I mean,
basically, he found some people there, and there was an
interaction there. Then after that he had east, right, he takes care
of the West versus he then takes care of the East. Then it says,
again, he took another path. So he was going on these expeditions, it
seems you took the third time. And at that time, it says had that
either Bella Bina said Dean, where he got to a place which may have
been in between the two in another direction, but it was a place
between two barriers. And then he found that people who could
they will seem to be very primitive people, but they were
under oppression. There was another tribe that used to live
close by who just violent like savages, I mean, worse than
savages. When you hear the description of these and they were
the Yajima jooge The God Magog. They were the government of the
tribe was the grog Maga they were basically just really terrorizing
these people. So when he got to this place, these people complain,
so he said, Okay, fine. They said, well, we'll pay you for this. He
says, what Allah has given me, Kodama McCann, ni fi here, Rob be
higher on that which my Lord has enabled me with is a superior. But
I just need some help from you. So basically, he said, he built a
huge
barrier, you could say, and he filled it with metal and all sorts
of stuff, right, with various different types of material
because it talks about them having to melt it down, to be able to
fill it up. And basically the idea is that they Allah then says in
verse 57, from a star or any of Heroux, who am a star, Allahu
Nakaba, they've not been able to basically jumped over it. And
they've not been able to make a hole in it. And every day
according to the Hadith, they try, right, and then after that, they
go to sleep. And as the Hadith mentioned, the wall goes back to
normal. So whatever they've done every day because it's a promise
of Allah, that they're not going to come out until the Day of
Judgment is nigh. And when that happens, they will then come out.
That's why Allah subhanaw taala then says in verse 98, called her
the Rama to me, Robbie, for Elijah Dora be gyla, who the co worker
and Robbie haka Allah will obliterate it when it comes to
when it comes to the time. And otherwise this was the mercy for
them. And then when they come, there's the whole story which is
not which is one of the signs of the day of judgment where Sid
salaam will initially be helpless against them until he will make a
DUA and after they've done all their ravaging then Allah subhanaw
taala will send something by which they will all die. That's why
Allah says we're talking about the homeodomain EV moves up Belding
when we feel healthy sorry for Gemma Anna whom Gemma This then
takes us to the Day of Judgment in general. Now, who is this little
car name literally little car name, Karan means a horn. So car
name means the dual which is the double horn or two horns and
generally the idea is you have two horns. Now generally when you're
talking about two horns that brings about the idea of the devil
but here this is a person is far
From being the devil, the means the possessor of two horns, the
one who sports two holes, two horns rather, the some people have
tried to claim that this is actually Alexandria, because
they've taken from the idea that he was such a super ruler that he
had everything under him. So that means he must have been Alexandria
because they say Alexandria was one of the biggest rulers, or had
the largest expanse of land. Allah subhanaw. Taala knows best. The
problem is that Alexandria, Alexander was of Macedonia was
actually not a believer, right. Whereas this one, little codename
is a believer. Now the point is that you can go to great depths to
figure out, you know, who he was, and what possibly who it possibly
was, and so on. But it'd be a waste of time, because it doesn't
add anything to the objective of what the story is being told here
for it's not to try to figure out who he wasn't what he looked like
and what he wore, and what his favorite food was, but more about
the the point of again, when you have a rule, so that no see her in
this case is the rule aspect. Right. And as we mentioned, we
talked about the story of Musa alayhis salam. The main aspect of
the story of Musa Ali Salaam is the fitna of knowledge that we
have too much data, too much knowledge, and that gives you a
superiority complex. And this happens a lot. You've got lots of
people out there who think they know a lot. Allah included, and
that is the challenge for them, that they don't look down upon
others. They don't think they're superior to others. They don't
humiliate others, they don't denigrate others, and they
basically act according to the wisdom of their knowledge. So
that's the understanding of that. So you've got the religion in one
of them the faith, you've got wealth, the fitna of wealth, you
the trials of religion, the fitna of wealth, the fitna of knowledge.
And the last one was the fitna of leadership rule authority. Right.
So that's where we get now the final section of the surah is a
hassy ballerina Cafaro. And you're talking to a buddy mean Dooney
earlier in Naja Hannah Malika Felina Newsela. There are several
different themes that are mentioned in this last point
distinction between the people of paradise, the people of *, and
Allah says, as he says in 107 in Alladhina amanu I mean, no, Saudi
had Canada home, Jana told Ferdowsi Newsela people who
believe and do good deeds for them is genital fear dose as a place
for living a hard Idina fie her Liahona and her havila Right,
they're gonna stay in there forever, they will not want to
move from their view a few other things. Allah subhanaw taala is
very beautiful. You should read this last part for yourself. Allah
says in verse 103, called Nibiru Campbell X arena Armada, say tell
him should I tell you Should I inform you of the one who's most
lost in terms of his deeds? Alladhina Dola Sahil hayati dunya
all of the efforts in the in the life of this world have gone to
vain when Yes, the guna unknown UFC known as sunnah. That's the
that's the shocker. That's basically the part that's really
serious for us is that they think that they were doing good.
They think they were doing good. And there's a lot of people out
there who are doing things. And either because they have no
sincerity, or because they may have sincerity, but they're doing
it wrong. It's against Islam, but they're doing they're thinking
they're helping Islam Subhanallah they used to think they were doing
good, but all of that is going to be redundant, it's going to go to
vain. And that's where Allah says that for habitat, Amma Lu, the
deeds are all going to be canceled. So I think that's it the
last, the last two verses then Allah subhanho wa Taala is talking
about
Allah's words. And this obviously comes down there was a case and a
reason for the revelation of this verse, which we don't want to get
to, but you can read about in the tough series. Basically what Allah
subhanaw taala is saying that if all the oceans were ink, in order
to write down all the words of Allah subhanaw taala, then all of
those oceans would be depleted before Allah's words could be
completed. Allah's words are infinite, all the oceans, either
this means the words of Allah or the praise of Allah, you cannot
complete would not be completed, even if you use everything well.
Oh jitna be Mythili he muda even if you were to bring a similar
amount, another seven oceans, it's just an example. It's just not
going to happen. Many of us have dealt with this in great detail.
And that's why the last verse is from uncanny or Julia kohlrabi
Kalyanaraman and soya
the one who wants to meet who wants who is hoping for the
meeting with his Lord, then he should do good deeds. While you
should be able to Robbie he had in the worship of his Lord, he should
not ascribe any partners. May Allah grant us pure belief.
Basically the the final lesson from Zulu codenamed story was
obviously, the fact that when you're a person of authority, then
just as these different people asked him for different things,
both he was firm in some places he had to punish, in some places he
had to forgive in some places. If you read the story, you'll see
then in the final one we had to have
She helped them. And he used many of his own resources as well. And
he took help with them. That gives you a number of different lessons
from that as well that when you're in a position of authority, you
need to have the empathy and you need to have the real concern you
don't just take it to fill in a position
hamdulillah now we begin sort of Maryam, small to medium is a very
well known Surah because a lot of new Muslims or non Muslims in
fact, this is the sort of the kind of pointing that they point the
non Muslims to when they want to read part of the Quran. But you
have to remember that a story of Maria Maria Islam is not just
here. It's also in Surah Al Baqarah. asserted earlier Imran
Radha sort of Allah Imran holds a large detail as well. And here,
there's other aspects of the detail of Mariam Ali Salam story
as well. But the way it starts is again, it starts with the it's a
murky Surah with 98 verses, so still around the it's still in the
hundreds, and it has just six sections. So it's quite small
because we need to get to sort of Taha and just like with other
murky sewers, it's gonna discuss fundamentals and basics, like the
Oneness of Allah, and resurrection, and reward and
punishment and so on. But this surah is actually full of the
stories of Prophets, right? It's got several discussions, mainly
about
both this one and
Taha is also about prophets. In fact, mme and Pa are considered to
be like Sister sewers, right? Very similar themes and so on, which
we'll discuss a bit later. Now, the discussion here is that the
first the first prophet that is discussed is the karate Salaam.
Allah says
her Yeah, I saw the Quran, Matthew Rob Baker either who is actually
mazing right. The Quran, Matthew Rob Baker Aveda, who is a carrier
the way your Lord was merciful to his servant. ZAKARIA could have
just said His Prophet, said his servant, because it's when a seven
acts like the servant that they become entitled to the greatest
reward from Allah is now look at this carefully is now the robber
who NIDA and huffy when he called on subtly to his Lord, a subtle
call he made to Allah and you know when he did that when he saw
mighty mighty Islam with the fruits, so it's like okay, my
lord, he's reinvigorated this desire, caught up in Nirvana, love
the moment he wished Allah Rasool Shaybah. What a combi do Iike or
be Sharqiya.
So essentially, these are the things he's saying to Allah. This
is telling you how to make a dua to Allah subhanaw taala,
especially if you're people who can't have children who can't have
a son sometimes because that's a big deal for some people, and or
just anything else in life. There's something that you really
want and you can't you can't have. Now remember, he'd become very
old. His bones had become weak. He mentioned that his hair had great
become white, his wife was very old and was actually infertile was
barren. Now's a good time to say at that time was about 120 20
years old and his wife was 98. Right at that time, and it just
seemed like impossible to have a child at that age. However, he
asks Allah subhanho wa taala, he puts his hands up, I don't know if
he puts his hand up but he makes a dua to Allah. And basically he
says to Allah subhanaw taala the number one I'm very weak. Number
two, I am weak, but I am not despondent, I am not hopeless.
Because,
well, I'm a combi dua, ecobee Sharqiya. Basically, I've not been
ever been unfortunate when I made a DUA to you.
And then he the third point, so he talks about his weakness, he talks
about always getting an answer from Allah. So there's the hope
there. And number three, that
he he gave a pious reason a righteous reason that I'm worried
about leaving the people behind me without a successor. When he
lifted my worldly me Worre II. So Allah subhanho wa Taala then gives
him a child and what a child it gives him he gives him Yeah, hey,
Ali salaam somebody who has never heard that name before Yeah, hear
to be alive. That's the meaning of yeah hear the meaning of use of
his Yazeed to be to increase right as as one individual told me
actually I was in the Vatican he told me that right in Rome. It was
one of the it was actually one of the priests from there his name
was use of is actually a Lebanese Christian. Who was there so I told
him my son's name is use of so he said Do you know what use of
means? I don't know because Hebrew right. So then he said it means
Yazidi means increased so all your use of south there maybe you found
the meaning of your name now.
Anyway, finally gives him Yeah, here it is. Salam Yeah. Hey, Elisa
is a cousin of Isa Al Islam as you know, and he may not only that he
gives him all of these qualities. He makes him righteous. He makes
him Arabic. He makes him an ascetic and he makes him a
prophet. So
Han Allah. So when Allah gives them even at that age, Allah can
give you the next story that would start from verse 16, is the story
of Madame Ali Hassan was Phil kita memoriam. Now this particular part
of the story is the birth is when she becomes pregnant. And then
after that she escapes, and then where she gives birth and so on.
Today, people when they go to Bethlehem or beta lamb, there's
there is the,
the church there, which everybody visits. And when I visited there,
there was a Muslim guide, who explained a few things. And then
when nobody else was inside, he says, I this is not the place
where Eastside Islam was born, it's actually a few miles off,
right? Because it wasn't a cave. They've got the birthplace of
Islam in a cave underground. Right? You have to go down. He
said, clearly, as the Quran mentions, it was besides a palm
tree, Illa J Nakhla. Right, call it the lathe and you need to call
it anyway, the story of Esau Islam is mentioned. And I want to just
fast forward to when she actually has the child. Now she has to come
back, and she's carrying a child. And you know what happens then
people start slandering, especially when you just want to
slander people anyway. And of course, this is quite unusual to
for a girl who is just inside having no marriage, having no
touch with men, and then suddenly she brings a child and that young
age as well, although I don't think young age was a problem at
that time. So Allah had told her what to do anyway. Now as they
confront her, she just points out the child now they say, for a
Charlotte la so she says, as in verse 29, she put she points in
the direction of the child call who cave and Oakley woman kind of
fell madly sabe how are we going to? Like, are you taking us for a
joke or something? How are we going to speak to the child, but
Subhanallah the child suddenly starts, this is Sid salaam, he
says, Allah in the eyeball the law. I am the servant of Allah. He
starts off with being the servant of Allah, not Prophet, not God,
none of that. I mean, God is wrong anyway, for him to say that. But
that in itself has a very important he says, Allah gave me
the book, which means he will give me the book, he made me a Prophet.
He made me bless it wherever I'm going to be. And then he has
guided me or instructed me to do solid and zakat, as long as I stay
alive, and, and he's not made me arrogant. And I have peace on me,
the day I was born, and the day or a day and the day I've
resurrected, that is a lot of discussion there to emphasize the
point that he is not a god. Right? Or as an American, he is not a
god. Right? He is a prophet, he is the servant of Allah. And that is
Daddy curry sub memoriam. That is the that is ASA, the son of Mary.
And Allah then says in the next verse maca and Allah here and yet
ducky that mean whether it is not for Allah to take a child
Subhanallah he is transcendent above that, whenever he decides
anything, he just says Be it is the way moneymaxim actually became
pregnant. He mentions in a story that angel came to and she's like,
You're a man, you know, be careful if you're a pure person, and so
on, says I'm an angel from Allah, He blew into, you know, into the
opening of her of her garment. And basically then she just became
pregnant. And that's Allah subhanaw taala squadra. Now you
got two stories of kind of near miraculous births. One will I
mean, when you say miraculous, they will definitely unusual and
extraordinary one is Zachary Allison. I'm having a child of old
age, then Maria Maria salaam, having a child without a father
without a husband, right? That really I mean, for anybody who
doesn't have children who wants a child this gives a lot of hope,
this surah gives a lot of hope, inshallah. Now, the fact that he
says, I've been told to pray salah, and Zakat is to show that I
myself have to do worship, I am obliged to do worship, I am not to
be worshipped. There's a lot of subtle indications in there to say
that I'm not the God. And then Allah says it very clearly. You've
had two groups about Eastside Islam, even at that time, there
were those groups who said he is the Son of God. Right? They
developed into that group than the others who slandered him, they say
that he's basically the son of an he's an illegitimate child. Right?
And then of course, the others. They've actually said Joseph was
the Father. So there's actually they say, Virgin Mary, but there's
a lot of that believe that Josie was the father. Josie was
apparently a relative use of an ajar. That's his name use of a
nutjob. Right? He was he was a relative, and he asked her a few
questions when he found out she was pregnant very politely, you
can see the mention of the in taxis like immuno cathedra and
others, and she responded. Okay, now let's move on from verse 41.
To Ibrahim alayhis, Salam story. Now, Ibrahim Ali some story, and
he's just general mentioned and praise and all of that is
mentioned throughout. But in this case, this is another of the
discourses with his father. And he's saying Oh, my father your
ability. It's a very polite term, your ability, let Abu shaytaan
don't worship the shaytaan because shaytaan is disobedient to the
Most Merciful One. And the father just didn't get his color around.
He went into an early hottie. If
Raheem, are you turning away from my gods, my deities? Oh, Ibrahim,
if you don't stop doing that if you don't abandon this
this idea of worshiping somebody else a lot of human neck, I'm
going to stone you beat your god Malia right now leave me for a
while. He said Salam O Allah,
I have to leave. That's a tough job. That's a tough idea to leave.
When did you stay there and you just deal with it. And he decided
to leave. And that's why sometimes we need us leave a place of
difficulty. Allah will open up things for you don't stay in a
place and suffer. There's a lot of people and they've made the
migration, especially for the sake of the deen. Allah has made things
much easier for them, but just make sure you're doing the right
thing. So I still feel like right then he says that I am going to
seek forgiveness for you from my Lord. And the other place already
told us we read before that Allah told that he did that at the
beginning, but when he decided it was when he realized it was gonna
happen. He then said, I'm not going to do that. Then Allah
subhanaw taala speaks about Allah says that we when he left and he
did the sacrifice, we gave him his hug, we gave him Yaqoob and we
gave them we made all of them prophets, and we gave them from
our mercy will have now Lomira Medina.
And then he mentions all that now one thing you have to remember you
have to understand he is apparently after easily after
Ibrahim Ali Salam, pretty much all the prophets, as far as we know
came from his children.
So all the Bani Israel and then is made or Islam and then Muhammad
Salah lorrison They all from his children as far as we know because
we don't know of any none Bani Israel prophets except like it's
my dad Islam and Muhammad Salah Lord Islam and so on. Number two,
all the divine books that we know of the four major books, they all
from prophets, and messengers of his children
that have no course he had his own Sofia Ibrahim he had his own
scriptures as well. And then there was a remnant of his faith in
Mocha mocha Rama. So Allah subhanaw taala talks about Musa
Islam talks about Harun Ali salaam talks about Ismail Ali salaam
talks about Idris Ali salaam gives a praise or a point like about His
Highness that Saddam he said that he was always true to his promise
about a smart a result Islam he says that he was very truthful as
well. And
about his mind that Islam he also said that he used to encourage his
to order his people, his family to pray Salah and give Zakat.
So So Salatin Zakka this constantly been emphasized here as
well. Anyway, now a very interesting verse, which is verse
58, another such diverse Willa Iike Latina Anam, Allahu Allah,
human and Nabhi and I mean Lulea to them, those are the those
profits from the progeny of the mighty salaam that we have
showered our blessings upon. When we met Pamela I knew and from
those who were also carried, you know, with new hottie salaam, and
from now the progeny of Ibrahim and Israel, Israel is Iacobelli
salaam, because remember is Jaco, some of the 12 sons. So you got 12
tribes that come from the the Levi and the levy and all the others,
right. And when we met her, Dana, which Sabina those that we've
guided, and we've chosen, and then he mentions about this, that they
will do so Judith, if it was recited upon them, then Allah says
59 Verse 59, for hull FM embedded in holophone, outdoor or solid,
whatever OSHA heard for so you're gonna hear 11 tab, right. But
after them, they had some descendants who unfortunately
started missing the prayer.
And following their desires, they're gonna they're in for a
tough deal, except always Allah gives away out, except the one who
makes Toba who believes properly does good deeds, and these people
will enter paradise and they will not be oppressed. And then Allah
talks about paradise and gives a whole description of paradise. I
don't want to get carried away with that because I don't have
time otherwise. That's some of the best parts of the Quran is the
discussion of descriptions of paradise. Now, Ibrahim on Islam
gets all of these virtues that we just discussed because of the
sacrifices that he provided, like an unnatural sacrifice is undue
sacrifice. Well, you know, very extraordinary ways, like trying to
sacrifice his son and so on. Allah subhanho wa Taala then discusses
hellfire, and how many people have been destroyed with done wrong,
challenging. Verse 75 is a challenge. But what Allah subhanaw
taala is saying that anybody who does good Allah subhanho wa Taala
says way as Eid Allah Who Latina de Hooda, those who want guidance
and who take the path of guidance, Allah subhanho wa Taala will
increase them in guidance, you do the first part of starting your
pursuit of knowledge, go and take some courses, go and read some
tough cs go and read further. And you will see that Allah then will
only increase your guidance, and then again while back here to sign
your heart. This is a constant recurring theme. We read this this
is probably the third time
The those perpetual good acts of charity, they are better for you
according to your Lord in terms of reward, and the better for you to,
you know, to find in the hereafter as well.
The last section starting from 85, that series of verses are
absolutely wonderful, extremely lyrical. We don't have the time to
enjoy them properly today, but they are talking about several
different things. Number one, they're talking about
giving the province a license and constellation that look Don't
worry about these people. We're going to punish them in the right
way and we're going to give the believers these good rewards and
so on. Then Allah subhanaw taala starts to discuss about the
Christians and they're considering
that God has a child and he talks about that. So I'm just gonna read
a few verses I can't I can't stay I can't stay without doing that.

And then it carries on about you sorry about the Christians and so
on. And then this part here in a Latina man who I'm you know,
sorely had the surgery Lulu humo Rahman would
those who believe and do good deeds Soon Allah subhanaw taala is
going to give them love. Allah is gonna place love for them, where
he keeps a general like they love Allah or he loves them not just
that Allah is going to place love for them, he is going to designate
and a lot love for them. Now that we can maybe understand from a
hadith of Gibreel Ali salaam that is these are the guided people who
are close to Allah subhanaw taala then it is basically as mentioned
in the Sahaba in the Bukhari and Muslim right
that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told us that when Allah
loves somebody, right, they do some good deeds whatever Allah
loves somebody he calls up says I love such and such a person. You
love him too. You know these are Isha down there and this to me
this Sofia, right this use of the Salim this Musa this Harun this
day for whatever your names is right? is married and Zecharia.
Right and Abdullah Hassan Insha Allah, right.
And I love this person. So you love him as well. GBI some spreads
disinformation among the angels. Angels then come for their
activities and their jobs to the earth. It gets spread on the
earth. It's subliminal, it's almost like subliminal. And then
you there Hola. Hola, como la phyllodes Acceptance is placed for
him in the dunya. And people you don't know why you love this guy.
You just love him.
Right? Of course, they're gonna have detractors, even the prophets
ultimate detractors who hated him. But for the majority, it's like
you sometimes don't even know why you love him. And again, it's just
good, right? There's something good about that person.
Subhanallah that's natural. That's natural love. That's good. Right?
And then the opposite has mentioned they've some Allah hate
somebody is angry with somebody. Then he says he does the same and
then people just find that person despicable. They may have to show
respect to them because of their position or whatever, but they
have no love for them in the heart because the true love is from the
heart. May Allah subhanho wa Taala grant us that Kobo Lea for
insomnia started out who be designed equally to be Shira
behemoth. You know, the robber he called Melinda again the addresses
to the Prophet salallahu Salam. Welcome Alekna Coppola. Holman,
Carmen. Hello, hey, Suman Holman ahead in Odessa. merula. America,
there's so many people we've destroyed in the past who went
wrong. This is again to just give comfort to the Prophet salallahu
alayhi salam that don't worry about it. They have no mention.
The people that went wrong before they have no mention, right. You
won't hear anything about them. That allows US companies to have
the medium now we begin surah Taha surah Taha is, again, another MKi
surah. It's got slightly longer verses and it's 135 verses so
longer than the previous two tours. It's split up into eight
sections. If not Abbas Radi Allahu Anhu relates who is the professor
of the Quran, the most sorry, the most knowledgeable regarding the
Quran. He mentioned that surah Taha and sort of medium, although
Surah Huck was really love the Sunnah, Miriam.
I think in terms of Revelation, it's the 45th Surah of revelation
MKi surah. And 44th would be Miriam. And but it's the 20 of
Surah of the Quran, as we know, in the 60s Jews. So while one was
definitely revealed after the other and they are not together,
they are separate sewers, but in turn
So the theme and so on, they're very similar, right? They're very
complementary. And so for example, Musa alayhis salam story is
mentioned in Surah Mariam in brief. And in this surah surah
Taha it's huge detail.
Right? Huge detail. Right, you will see, like, I'm not sure if
it's the majority of the surah. But it's a large, large chunk of
the surah. Then you have other mighty Salam story, again in
Marissa Marissa in Surah, Maryam there was a mention. Now here,
there's more detail. And again, there are obviously it's all about
emphasizing the basics of faith.
For a lot of us, to be honest, for a lot of us, sometimes it's more
useful to learn, to read just to strengthen the faith, it'd be
probably more useful to read the murky swords with a lot of
reflection to strengthen the faith first, right before you go into
the laws, like especially new Muslims, maybe Allahu Allah,
right? Because when they start looking at the laws, but their
faith isn't there yet, like no, that's too difficult when the
faith is made. Right? Of course, the Salatin, Zakat is all
mentioned in even in the murky Surah as anyway, right not to say
that they're not responsible for doing all the acts of Islam. But
it doesn't mean that when somebody becomes Muslim that you must teach
them everything in the same day and then basically standards
authority over them and say that if you don't do this, then you're
not a good Muslim. You're not a true Muslim.
People need time. Now Taha what the star ha mean.
For her, it's obviously heard of Mahkota art as well. It's the
Torah and the HA, but because it says straight after the first
verse there after Torah is for her.
Identical analytische call it alert, guiltily me Asha, Xena min
holla call of our summer de la Rula says, Allah did not send this
upon you this Allah did not send this Quran upon you, for you to
become disturbed for you to become grieved, and all the other words,
right? So, the opinion here the strong opinion here is that Taha
is actually the name of the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam,
just as Yacine is so Yacine and Taha are names of the Prophet
sallallahu Sallam and apparently Allah is then addressing the resin
by another name. Because Mohammed, the name Muhammad is mentioned
very few times in the Quran. We've got a sort of Mohammed coming up.
But most of the time it's with adjectives, it's with
characteristics, it's with attributes with just shows
a multiple multifaceted personality, when you've got so
many names, so many attributes, it just shows that you are everything
Rahim and he calls him Taha, we have not put this we have not
revealed is going on to make it difficult upon you to create
difficulty and why what kind of difficulty are we talking about?
See the province of Assam used to exert himself fully in both
reciting the Quran for himself and benefiting from it. And number
two, in giving the Dawa in basically inviting people towards
it, and those are both in extreme exertion, exertion in reciting
right
is he would stand after he's dealt with his public duties comes home
for either ferrata, once you finish your public duties fun sub
now make an effort, right?
Put that exertion in. So that's what he would do. And we know the
story from Aisha Radi Allahu Allah, etcetera, who used to
observe in doing this. They used to stand stand for long periods in
history.
We just passed the verse which I didn't point out that it's fair to
hedge at bay. Right that which was to the Prophet saw some being
obligated to do Tahajjud prayer. But he used to do very long ones.
And if you look in the Shamel, and we've got lectures on the
Shambhala, anti shaman, right, the chapter on the night prayer, you
will see in the different types of records that he used to read the
but the point is to do long recitations. Amazing. I just wish
I could be present to have witnessed one of those, the
hundreds of the Prophet sallallahu when he's really, you know, when
he's the public prayer, where he's very measured in how much he
reads, but in that he didn't, he probably goes all out. And there's
some descriptions about that. I just wish I could have observed
that Allahumma Salli, ala sayyidina. Muhammad. The point
here is, so he used to make a lot of effort in that. Then the other
effort is in his Dawa. He used to be really upset if somebody
doesn't believe he wanted everybody to believe. It doesn't
matter how many times they would persecute him, swear at him, curse
him. And what he still wants them to believe even after thought if,
when they blooded his entire body, and the angel was there to say
we'll finish them off. He said No, Lee
Even from their children until they die if is a Muslim place?
Right? Subhanallah so that's the Prophet. Allah is compassionate
with him. Right? He feels that it tells him we didn't do this for
you to make, you know, to go so much into difficulty and to find
it so difficult. So Allah subhanaw taala is consoling the Prophet
salallahu alayhi wa sallam. That's why Allah says that look, we
didn't reveal this to you to create the difficulty for you in
Latin keratin Lima Yaksha. This is only a Reminder for those who have
the reverent fear of Allah.
They have been going to bed if they don't have it. They're not
going to have it.
Allahu Akbar, then Zeeland, revealed from the One who created
the earth and the heavens, the high heavens or ramen or LLRC
stoer I'll describe this later. When it comes to another Surah
Lahoma is summer worth you wanna fill out for him is everything
anyway, then the story of Musa Islam starts well attack a hadith
of Musa has the story of Musa Islam come to you. And now Now the
story of Musa Islam starts. And several different incidents about
Musa Islam are mentioned. But they're not meant necessarily
mentioned in order. They're not there's no linear approach here
like it was with use of Ali salaam, where it was from the
beginning from a young age and it carried on here, it kind of says
one thing, then it goes back shows a vaccine, right? And then it
carries on. And it's done very effectively, because the purpose
of it is to create reminders and lessons from it. So before I begin
the verse, I'm not going to read the verses because obviously it's
the whole Surah it starts from verse nine has the story of Musa
Islam come to you. I'm just going to tell you, when you read this
inshallah for yourself, the different incidences that will be
mentioned, and then I'll point out some verses for you. Again, why is
Musa Islam so, so prominently featured through so many suitors
in the Quran, reason is that he was the one who had so many
extraordinary and unique experiences, very rich
experiences, you can say, very difficult ones as well with his
people. And anybody who punches over the story of Musa alayhis
salam, you know, and with an open mind and open heart and with
sincerity, they will learn a lot in their life and their character,
and how to behave towards your faith and your profits. Number
two, the other reason is that a lot of it has to do with the
Pharaoh Pharaoh plays a huge part in Musa salaams story. And
throughout history, you're always going to have a pharaoh, a type of
a pharaoh. I'm not calling anybody a pharaoh right now. But anybody
who displays those traits is like a pharaoh. So then the story is
that this is the archetype it's not it's a real story, but it
provides like an archetype of a story between good and bad, right
between truth and falsehood between oppression and the
oppressor are the oppressed and the oppressor. And it shows how
there's always going to be
success for those who stick to the faith. And there's always going to
be assistance to those who are oppressed, and it's also going to
going to be punishment for the oppressors. That's basically what
we're learning from this. So let's carry on now, initially, the first
discussion is about when he becomes a prophet. So he's coming
back from Medina with his wife, he sees some fire, and then that's
when Allah subhanaw taala speaks to him and bestows prophecy upon
him. Then after that, it suddenly shoots back as the, I forget what
you call those, right, where you go back seen, right? It zooms to,
to the to when he was born, and where his mother had to put him
into a box, right and leave him in the river. And she had a string
tied to it. We'll talk about the insert root causes in the next few
days in more detail. Then after that, it then discusses fast
forward to when he and his brother his brother was a better speaker
than him because he had a bit of a stutter. And there's a reason why
he had a stutter is because says that at a young age when he was
being brought up in the house of Pharaoh, which we'll be discussing
later, Pharaoh tested him because he was worried. Right and he gave
him a glass of there are two bowls, one of diamonds or
something one of sparkling stones, and the other one was fire. Right?
And he basically took the fire as a childhood and burned his tongue
with it. Allah knows best that is related. Allah knows best. So we
had a stutter. That's why how do we not Islam is constantly with
him. So he then told to go and speak with Pharaoh. And then the
discussion with Pharaoh is also or the commander is that make sure
you talk to him calmly. Even though he calls himself God, Allah
is saying talk golden Lena, right talk to him and I will look at
those verses.
Then after that he moves forward
to the day
Question or the incident with the whole match or the challenge with
the pharaohs.
magicians and how they become Muslim and so on. And Pharaoh gets
angry and so on. Then after that very quickly Pharaohs very angry
now. So then there's the discussion of the escape, right?
This is the escape of Musashi Santa with the Bani Israel from
Egypt. And Pharaoh gets his army together and obviously
chases them but to his own death. And then, when they're in the Red
Sea, I may have mentioned Nile before in one of the previous
parts, right by mistake, it's actually the Red Sea, not the
River Nile. And that's when Pharaoh is killed, right and dies
by his body is thrown up. And thus he's mummified and so on. And then
the whole discussion about Musa Islam now dealing not with Pharaoh
but with the Bani Israel with the Israelites his own people and how
they would constantly challenge him and all the rest of it. And
then the There's one story that's mentioned with a lot of prominence
there is the story of Samiti. Salman he is that one person there
who when Musa ism had gone to the meeting with his Lord, He as I
mentioned last time he took the gold that they basically stolen
from the houses and put it together as a cough and said that
this is your God and Musa Islam has forgotten. Right so now it
talks about the Musa isn't coming back getting angry with his
brother and so on and then grabbing somebody into why did you
do that for and then he mentions that.
Somebody mentions that I saw
called a buzzer to be marlim Yep, so Ruby in verse 96, I saw what
they did not see a couple to cover that I mean, sad Rasul. So I took
a handful from the place where the messenger had passed for an a
birth to her. And then I threw it on their face. The idea was that
it was either Jabril Ali Salam, or whoever it was, who was leading
them why Musa Hassan was in there. And they noticed that every time
the,
the hooves of the horse of the leader he relies on I think it was
wherever it would land it, things would become green. So he thought
this is really great. This is like some kind of magic dust or
something. So he must have grabbed this is from the explanations.
It's not that's not in the Quran. But that's a lead alluded to here.
So then that's what he had used there. Now, the punishment that he
was given was this call hub for in nella Kafeel hire the tabula rasa
as you you now go, he's basically thrown out, he's exiled. And for
you now in your life, your job is to just tell anybody who comes up
to me says No touching me, don't touch me. Right, no touching. And
then eventually you will die out as well. So that's his punishment
that nobody was allowed to interact with him afterwards. He
couldn't interact with anybody afterwards.
That's a prominent story that's mentioned there about that. And
then after that, it talks about Musa alayhis salam, sorry, the
Bani Israel messing up in other ways and going astray in other
ways and so on. And then Musa Islam bringing the Torah and and
so on and so forth. What basically it tells you that the following
are the lessons that you learned from the stories inshallah which
you will read for yourself,
that Allah subhanho wa taala, protected Musa alayhis salam and
his people from Pharaoh and his oppression, right. And
when he had actually started off as a child, who was being
basically protected, so that he wouldn't be killed, and then
suddenly he becomes the greatest
source of death, you can say for Pharaoh. Number two.
How he will the another thing you'll understand is how he was so
beloved by the people.
And the idea is that anybody that would see him would love him.
Number three,
it discusses that, while his mother lost him in a sense
afterwards, although she had some access to as well which we will
read into it will cause us, Allah subhanaw taala to miraculous
methods miraculous means Allah gave him the best Torbay you could
have in the royal household of the Pharaoh. And then still Allah made
him the Prophet.
That's why there's a poet who says that we're Musa the robber who
Djibouti Luca, Pharaoh or Musa the robber who Pharaoh no Marcelo,
right. And that's either lamb yoke, terribile Maru, who say the
middle SLE for Harbor, Monroe, berhow Harbor millou. For Musella,
the robber who feared for Musella, the robber who GBD, Luke, cafiero,
or Musella, the robber who found no more sorrow, Allah knows best
about the reality of this, saying that if a person has not been
written as fortunate from eternity from in the color of Allah, then
it doesn't matter who brings them up who gives to be undisciplined
them, they all go to the they're basically all fail. So the Musa
who was brought up by Gibreel, right
comes a cafe and the Musa who is brought on by Pharaoh becomes a
prophet a messenger. Who is this Musa that was built by Gibreel
apparently Allah knows best the story if it's a reality or not,
but in some extended I think maybe for the Israelite versions, talks
about Samiti actually being a on a shipwreck with his mother, and
then he survived. He is the only one who survived. And Gibreel Isom
looked after him brought him up, Allah knows best. But Musa was
definitely brought up by Pharaoh as we know the story, but he
becomes a messenger.
The several other things that you will learn from that Allah
subhanho wa Taala gives him prophecy, Allah subhanaw taala
speaks to him, and so on. Basically from you've got the
majority, I would say probably say the majority now of the verses of
the Surah, about Musa alayhis salam. However, then after that,
there's some beautiful verses which always, you know, I love I
just loved again, the sound, the rhythm of it is just perfect for
the
the content which is
a graphic detail of the Day of Judgment. So Allah says in verse
105, where's Luna? Gynecology, Bernie Falco? Leah, Cebu ha Rob
Venus via via the Ruha car and soft soft lithography. Yo
Yo, man easy. We are una de Ariela Are you are Jenna Warhol share it
elsewhere. Tony Rockman, he further tests Moreau in
Tokyo starts with a discussion on the mountains, because the
mountains were the greatest things. That's why people are
monka would actually say that, Oh, when your piano comes over, you
will go on top of the mountain. They've never seen anything to
destroy a mountain no flood nothing. That's why Allah is then
saying they ask you about the mountain say that they will be
blown right apart and then we've got numerous they will just be
scattered in other ways that they will become like cotton wool,
nothing. And then you will see the land will be just totally flat.
You won't see under right image, um, that you will see absolutely
no crookedness. No upper down, even if you measured it with a
mechanical instrument, you would basically see it's going to become
completely flat. And then it's going to say that's going to be
the day of huge humility, the eyes will be downcast and so on and so
forth. Right, extremely graphic description of the Day of
Judgment. Then Allah subhanho wa Taala talks about the Quran, how
Allah subhanaw taala revealed the Quran and how he brings the
various different discussions in there for people to benefit from.
Then after that starts the discussion of Adam Alayhis Salam,
right after about the judgment. Again, the story begins with Adam
Alayhis Salam, and how the angels were told to prostrate and they
did, whereas IBLEES didn't. And then Allah says very clearly for
Kula Adam, right? We said, Oh, Adam, in the Heather, I do when
like,
this is your enemy. Right? What is Odjick and of your enemy of your
spouse as well, and make sure that they don't take you out of
paradise. So that you will become you will go into misfortune,
right? And so on, the discussion carries on.
And the story is mentioned about them and, you know, taking what
they eating from the Apple or whatever it was that they had
eaten from. And thereafter.
Allah subhanaw taala discusses the punishment, woman order and decree
now let me just before I get to that, I just want to mention a few
other points out a few other verses to you.
That are very, that are very inspirational. For me at least.
Again, there's a lot of inspiration here. There is woman
till kabhi Amin, aka Musa. What is that in your hand, used to carry a
staff or a collar here, I say. Now, the owner mentioned here that
Allah asked him what's in your hand, he could have just said,
this is my stuff. But he starts on this long discussion. It's my
staff. I
hold on to it. Right, I take support from it. I use it to
basically gather leaves for my, you know, for my animals, and I've
got lots of other Why did he go on he just wanted to prolong that
discussion. So you know, when you finally get to speak to somebody
been spending to speak to a long time, right, you know, like, you
just start speaking, well, Allahu Allah. Then, verse 26, tells us
this famous dua, which anybody who's having difficulty
articulating, speaking, and it's also a dua for those who have a
stuttering problem. And also for those who just can't gather their
thoughts, right, who have maybe a problem concentrating and
articulating their point well, this is a dua they should read.
Color rubbish, not color color means he said, rubbish rally so
the uasc really, Emery was LuLaRoe CODATA, Melissa Annie of color who
casually which is expand for me my best breast, make my matter easy
for me and remove this knot from my tongue so that they can
understand me. So when you're good
going into a discussion where you want to, you know, try to make
amends while you're trying to convince somebody to do the right
thing. This would be a perfect door, even if you don't have a
stutter. It's a good door to make where you want to give a message.
It's a very good door. When your ally was here, I mean early and
make their for me, my minister from my family, which is how rune.
I mean, you can do that, then maybe you get a hold on as a
brother. Right? But that's not part of that, you know, for what
purpose for what we're seeing.
The other thing that I want to point out the other verse I want
to point out is, a lot of the time Muslims asked, okay, so what do
you guys believe? What's your belief about Christians, about
Jews about atheists that where they're going to go? And if you're
in an interfaith forum, it gets quite difficult to answer that
question in an honest way. Because Allah mentions very clear clearly
where people are supposed to go, right? We've got a few isolated
opinions of like Ghazali about certain types of disbelievers and
then an ignore RV and so on. But otherwise, the majority I mean,
it's very clear what's mentioned in the Quran, but it's sometimes
not, it's sometimes a difficult answer to give. And the best
answer, to be honest, is taught to us by Musa Salam.
Allah teaches us in the Quran as Musa Ali salaam Zanza. So now,
when he when he challenged the Pharaoh and says that I've got,
you know, I'm coming from Allah subhanaw taala. I've got these
miracles and so on.
So Pharaoh and them they asked him a few questions for Morocco, Maya
Musa. So he what Who is your Lord? And that's from verse 49. Right?
So check these out.
Who is your Lord? So he answers that. Then he asked the question
because he wants to say from our Babu Curonian Gula. Okay, so if
you're saying that all of these people had the wrong faith, then
what about all the earlier generations? So he wants him to
probably say something bad so that
the people there, they're going to think that oh, they're saying bad
things about my forefathers about their forefathers? So he gives an
answer to that.
From our Bible, kurunegala So that is the question that what's going
to happen to people who've died basically from another faith. So
these dances he gives, He says, Call I will move the rugby fee
kita bien, la el de Loup, rugby, whether
the knowledge of that is with my lord in a in a record.
My Lord never deviates, never goes astray and does not forget.
Allah knows best you can just literally just say that knowledge
is with Allah. No, but we want to know what it is when that
knowledge is Allah.
Right. And if you've got the time to explain it in a nuanced way,
then you should explain it as mentioned in the Quran.
Okay, another verse is, some of you many of you will actually know
this if you've been to graveyards, is the verse 55 minha, halacha
intercom or Viharn or Edo calm? I mean, hello collegial calm, Daraa
and okra, that's the DUA you read when you're throwing the, the soil
in over a disease when you burying them from it, meaning from the
soil we created you and to it, we are returning you. And from it, we
will take you out and extract you resurrect you once again. Then
after that, a really important emotional point is verse 67. You
know, when he was challenged by the magicians, so you've got this
huge army of magicians in front of you and your single individual. So
it's very, very clear here Musala salaam it says about him in verse
67. For Oh Josephine FC he he further Musa
he felt fear in his heart.
How am I going to do this?
And then wonderful this is to teach all of us a lesson. When you
are confronted by a difficult task on the half in Nikka. Tell Allah
when you got Allah with you, behind you, Allah we said to him,
do not fear. You are going to be elevated. You're going to be up,
you're going to win, basically. And then he told him what to do.
So always when you're in that situation, don't get worried. Call
on to Allah subhanho wa Taala yah, Robbie. Right. Yeah, rugby.
Yeah, Allah. Yeah, Latif and inshallah Allah will help you.
Nothing wrong with having fear in your heart. But when you do have
that fear, then turn to Allah subhanaw taala verse 82, huge,
huge mashallah huge, gives you huge hope again.
We're in Neela, third on lemon turbo. And we're emila soya Hunter
Mata I'm how far not just go for not just raffir. Allah uses all of
these types. And one of them means who just forgives another one
means who forgives frequently another one we forgive abundantly.
The one who forgives huge sins of afar is an exaggerated version of
often, I'm going to be forgiving, oft forgiving of those who secret
repentance and who believe and who do good deeds from matter and then
they are guided. Just Well I remember the first time when I
focused on it since then it's, you know, it has an impact. Allah says
in verse 124, while I'm in our other and decree for in Allah
humeri Schatten banca the one who stays away from my remembrance
donor ignores my remembrance, the one who shuns my remembrance, he
is going to have a tough life And subhanAllah so many people have
come and they've said, you know, I've got the money, I've got
everything I've got material means, but I have a problem in my
heart, not a kadhi not a cardiological or not, not not like
a heart condition of that sort spiritual problem. I have, I can't
sleep. I have no respite, I have no contentment, I have no
satisfaction. I have no tranquility and basically start
some dhikr of Allah remember Allah throughout your day in different
means. Otherwise Allah says you're gonna get a difficult life. My
Isha and dunka like a constricted life. And finally, the last few
verses of the Surah 131. Allah is saying Latin would then nine acre

and your gaze towards those that we've given various different
luxuries and bounties and or luxury or comforts in the world.

command the prophets, Allah what more halacha be Salah T what's the
big idea? Command your family to do prayer and stay regular on it.
Learn as a Luca disco nananana Zuko galachipa to the taqwa. And
finally, the last verse, the prophets Allah was told to tell
them call Kulu Mata Robison, Fatah Basu, you know, you everything is

situation is going to be faster Tyler moon and US Hubble serratus,
we will monitor and you will soon learn who is who are those of the
balanced path and those who are guided. So we ask Allah to make us
of the guided ones. Let's just have a quick recap. As I said, it
starts off with the story of Zulu contain, then Surah two calf
begins. And it begins sort of ends rather with the discussion about
Allah subhanaw taala and being present in front of Allah and then
how his words will never end despite how much resource you
provide. Then Allah subhanaw taala you see one thing that I'm going
to, I'm going to give you two things, two tasks to do for
yourself, right.

mercy and maybe inshallah will be given that as well. So that's one
thing 18 times that. Number two, there are five mentions of our
benefits of Taqwa that's mentioned in the Surah not directly kind of
indirectly. Try to find those try to figure those out, and inshallah
that will be of benefit as well. Anyway, then the story starts off
with the story of sexuality salaam, then the story of the
birth, the birth of Eastside Islam with with Maria Maria salaam, and
then there's Ibrahim Ali salaams, discuss with his father and living
on then other prophets are mentioned. Then, importance of
thinking about all the characteristics and details about
those prophets that Allah subhanaw taala has mentioned, about telling
the family to pray, Salat, and give Zakat and so on. Then after
that, there's a discussion about being presented on the Day of
Resurrection, and so on. Then, it's the discussion in surah Taha
begins and majority of that is the discussion of Musashi, salaams
life and the various different incidences in in different parts
of it. The discussion of Samiti and everything, I don't need to
recap all of the incidents of Musa Ali Salaam.
But then, the last section, again discusses presentation in front of
Allah subhanaw taala on the day of judgment for everybody, and remind
of people to be protected from the shaytaan because he's an enemy.
Right? And finally, Allah subhanaw taala says, to not look at those
who have been given more than you and also to tell your family and
to encourage your family to remain very firm on prayer in the right
way.
So we ask Allah subhanaw taala to make us and our entire progeny
until the Day of Judgment, those who will be of the establishes of
the prayer in sha Allah, and may Allah subhanaw taala make the
remaining of this easy for us and bless us with it. Alhamdulillah
I've received several messages of VeriSign today a brother who's
blind he actually called me and that really touched me as well
that he's that he's been given an opportunity to learn. Of course,
the task is difficult, right to study the Quran. But as Allah
subhanaw taala says, at the beginning, the prophets of Allah
is some of Torah and the prophets, Allah some used to make his best
effort to fulfill the rights of the Quran. It takes time to
prepare this, to deliver it. It takes time for you to sit and
listen for you to be patient to listen, right and so on. But we
ask Allah subhanaw taala to give us the rewards, even though our
efforts are weak and we have shortcomings and allow allow us to
finish the rest of it and make this Ramadan better than any
Ramadan before it's an allow this to be the beginning of the journey
of the Quran for us and the advancement of it. Well, if you
