Ramadan Lila, I mean, what are the LI wa sahbihi wa Baraka was seldom
at the Sleeman. Cathy you're on Eli Yomi, Dean unburied
hamdulillah today, we will be inshallah covering the summary of
the fear of the eighth Jews of the Quran. And there are several
themes in here. It's a continuation of sorbitol anom. And
the reason why it's called an island, we didn't discuss it
yesterday, but today, Inshallah, if you haven't worked it out
already, then it will be coming today, the discussion of the anom
will be inshallah coming soon. And then after that start sorted out
off, so you have an arm and then through half the juice, once the
half the juice is complete, then you have sorted out off. So
inshallah we'll discuss a lot of the very different sources. As you
know, it's sort of the major theme in surah. Al Anon, aside from a
few rulings here and there, it's more of argumentation. It's more
about responding. It's more about stating facts, giving the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam a lot of guidance in terms of how to
respond and providing numerous factual details, especially those
which people can relate to that are axiomatic that fundamentally
inherently understood by people. So the end of the seven Jews
yesterday, they the Mushrikeen, they kept asking just as a delay
tactic, or just as excuses, they kept asking about to bring on new
Mark Jesus new miracles, new signs. And they finally said that,
you know, you also need to bring us more physical miracles as
opposed to the Quran like physical miracles, they will ask him to do
some really extraordinary things.
So Allah subhanaw taala says that they really don't want to believe
what Oh, under Nana Zilla in a mala, Mala Iike that even if we're
to basically bring down if we're to put onto the earth, numerous
angels, and the dead, or to even speak to them.
And we bring basically everything for them. Still, they would not
believe unless Allah subhanho wa Taala wills unless Allah has
written it for them, they're not going to believe because the
majority of them are very ignorant. So there, it's a lot of
foolishness. It's not even clever ideas. They're missing the point.
They're not even very intelligent. Right? If they're intelligent,
they're at least understand what these guys were not even very
intelligent. They're very foolish. And then to console the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Allah says, look at Attica, Jannetty
acqualina V. And I do and, you know, for every prophet, there has
to be some, you know, we've we've designated certain enemies for
every prophet, who are Shayateen al ins, they're basically the
Friends of the shaytaan. They are the shaytans of the humans, that
the human devils while jinn and from the jinn, and they basically
communicate with one another. They spread information to one another.
Zuko Falcone Hora deceptively just embellished speech and so on. And
if if Allah
Will not they will not have done so just let them carry on doing
that's their job, let them carry on doing that you do your task,
those who are good, we didn't shall accept your message.
Those. So then Allah subhanaw taala says don't worry about the
mockery, the sarcasm, their criticism, and everything else.
And there's no need to send any other marches as the Quran is the
greatest marches, especially for them. It's the greatest miracle
for them, because those people were the people of this language.
Right? Were the people of this language. They understood this
language, they appreciated the language. And it totally amazed
them.
On numerous occasions, I mean, some of them arch enemies, they
would go to listen to what the purpose of lorrison was relating,
reciting. And they couldn't leave. So it's just amazed because you
know, when something is so amazing, you just get bowled over.
So then when he would come back, meaning when this enemy whoever he
was, would come back, his friends would say, they'd look at his
face, like some boat like have you left the deme like have you left
our faith? Because the Quran I mean, especially for the people
have the language is just amazing.
That is the biggest Marchesa that we have that is the biggest.
Then Allah subhanho wa Taala says,
Allahu Akbar
what the McKinney Metro because cidco Adela so we moving on to
verses 114 115 Don't go through all of this 116 Now, Allah says
we're in total axotomy and Phil are the UD Luca and sebelah. And
that's a very important that's a very important fact mentioned in
the Quran that if you were to obey the majority of those who are on
the meaning the majority of the inhabitants of the earth at any
given time, they'll actually take you away from the path of Allah.
Because, and he says why? Because most people are ignorant Imam he
has mentioned that if there's one malady, right, one illness that is
always going to be a disability for the Ummah, or for people in
general, throughout history, it's going to be ignorance. What we
mean by ignorance is that you don't know what Islam is truly an
correctly saying. So even if you're Muslim, you're assuming
there's a lot of cultural input, a lot of misunderstanding, a lot of
exaggeration. So the true knowledge is lost that that's why
the true light knowledge to such people would be lost. And that's
why there's ignorance. That's why when people are ignorant, but they
think they're right, that's even worse, to have just enough
knowledge to think you're right. But not enough to know where
you're wrong. It's a very important thing to understand. You
only got a bit of infinite you think you're onto something, but
you don't have enough to really understand that. No, I don't
really have enough yet.
So then Allah says in the same verse 116 E, it'd be your own
Lavon. We're in Himalaya, hello, soon. There basically is a
shooting in the dark.
There, it's all conjecture, they just making up stuff. It's what
they think it's what is embellished in their mind for
different biases and reasons shaytaan and so on and so forth.
In North Dakota, hello, Manuel de Loup, and severely, it's your Lord
who is most knowledgeable, most aware of the one who's deviated
from his path, because he's the most knowledgeable of those who
are guided.
So that's a very important factor that's mentioned that people need
to really understand this. And I'm going to belabor this a bit more
because really our survival as the Noma not just in this world, but
also in the Hereafter, but especially in this world, our
unity, our collective effort for the right thing, motivation can
only come from True Knowledge. And for that you need to study if you
look just around you like all of our listeners, like if you just
think about it, right? There not Islamic knowledge that you have,
unless you've formally gone and studied that minority of formerly
gone study. Anybody, most other people just think about other
people in your family if you've studied but others haven't, then
where is the Islam from their Islam from will be literally from
what they've assimilated? If they're born in a Muslim house.
They Islam will be from the Islam that they've assimilated growing
up the bits that they've heard from their parents, who were not
necessarily the best teachers. I mean, they were good mashallah, if
they made us Muslims, Allah thank them. Right. But they weren't
academic. They're not teaching us Islam formally, other than maybe
the teacher in the mother saw in the maktabah, in the masjid that
we went to, right. But again, we were young, when that was told to
us. When people have become mature and discerning an adult and
looking at things in an adult way. Then think about it. A lot of
people have not had any input, direct input of Islam afterwards.
They're just going by what they've studied when in a young age, and
what they observe, and the few forwards that they get, but
there's no form of study. Nobody's read a book very
A few people, even though there's just so much available, right in
the form of video, audio written and so on now, take courses, it's
really important to do concentrated studies of different
subjects, right as much as you can you got the oral life to do it.
Otherwise, we don't want to be part of these people, that who
will just take you away from the path of Allah. And they just
following conjecture they just falling just dominant opinion,
just following their inclinations and so on. Then after that, the
next few verses which we're not going to go into is a reiteration
or further clarification of not eating haram. Right and especially
haram meats do not eat I mean, laying down the default, do not
eat let that karuma zucchero Juana la comme la pulumi, motocross,
motocross Mala era and whether that could be Muslim youth
charisma Allahu Allah when Allah Fisk do not eat that on which
Allah's name has not been mentioned. Because that's a
transgression.
Or in a Shayateen Hola, yo, Hoonah Illa Olia, Hindu god Nukem? Why do
people come and dispute with you? Why do these Islamophobes in the
media? Why do these various different editorials and
journalists and so on? And anybody else, even politicians, why Allah
says it here, it's the shaytaan that inspire to their friends,
that they should debate with you.
It's an inspiration of the shaytaan it's a whispering of the
shaytaan it's guidance of the shaytaan that he must do that.
That's why Allah subhanho wa Taala then just to give some
understanding of the distinction between good and bad, Allah
subhanaw taala
says in verse 122, LR muka animato for you now why Geron Allah Who
nor ie mushy fin, ump, fin, Sica, math aloof Illuminati laser behind
eg minha, Casa de casa Yuna real carefully in America and we are
Maroon.
That is a comparison here that the one who's dead and we've given
them life, there was somebody who was unexist and we gave them life.
And then after that we designated an appointed for them some light
by which
they walk among people, they know what to do the light spiritual
light, can they be like the person who is still in darkness? Who's
not even going to get out of it? It's the same this is this is it
is this way that for the disbelievers their actions have
been adorned, make them think it's good that these this is modern.
It's not old fashioned. Human beings are old fashioned human
beings, as old as time as old, as you know, other mighty salaam, and
the characteristics and so on is perennial. Right? So just because
people are now doing something different in this 21st century,
that doesn't mean it's superior. It's we've not even had a century
of this new idea. It's only been 5060 years
Subhanallah Whereas humans have lived for centuries before that,
and what was good for them? Right? You know, okay, there are certain
things we've definitely updated. But there's a lot of stuff that
we'll only find out in 50 100 years, when people really, when
the hype is off, when people really start thinking about it,
then then then they'll they'll probably look back and say that
this was a lot of this was a big mistake, a lot of aspects. A lot
of ideas were a big mistake. So person has to be very careful.
And Allah then says our caloric agenda if you could leave Korea in
a caribou Rama Jerimiah Liam kuruva we basically in every area
you're going to have those people who are going to be doing some
kind of plotting and bit of deception there. They really only
doing it to themselves. Is this the Sunnah of Allah on the earth
that this happens.
Then it's a beautiful verse, which is the verse of shot in Shara
aside from lm nasura halacha Sadhak. This is more broad, and
that's verse 125. For me, God they love who a dear who Yeshua sada
Rahul Islam, or may god that a god love who Ajahn Sadara, who the
year on how Raja Gan Doofy sama. Whoever Allah wishes for whoever
Allah wills for, He guides him Subhanallah and he expands his
* for Islam.
He expands his * for Islam. This is a gift of God.
When we were studying the evidences for the existence of
God, I thought let's do a bit of a
research scientific developer signing research. Get some
atheists like 20 Atheists and put all the different
proofs and see which one are most effective. When I read this verse,
I realized that while proofs can have some effect to a certain
degree, ultimately it's up to Allah. That's why there's some
atheists, they, they know it'd be easier for them to believe because
they've had to dishonor the families be disowned them, etc,
etc. But they just can't believe there's something messed up. And a
lot of the time it's because of something we've said or done some
kind of blasphemy which puts the veil on the heart, may Allah
protect us and our children, and our progeny and everybody, and
then Allah says that and whoever Allah wants to leave to stray,
then he just constricts his breast, because very difficult and
it's like, it's almost like you know, they climbing uphill it's
very difficult for them to, to believe Allah protects us from
that's a very important verse is something to really think about.
And then Allah just reiterates to her thus your Arturo become
unstuck. Nima, this is the straight path of your Lord, God
for son Iots. You know, we've made the signs very clear for people
who take heat and they think and reflect the home Daru salami in
the Robin.
May Allah grant us Dar Salam says that when they will come there,
then the angel will say, salam alaikum Salam Alikum Bhima sabato
for near Morocco but dar that's in another place. But here in verse
130 27, it sang for them is the Dar Salam, the DAR of peace, the
DAR of well being the abode of well being by the Lord, He is
there.
He looks after them. He is their friend
Bhima Curnow. Yama Loon is because of what they used to do. Remember,
Paradise, there is no worship in paradise, there's no obligations
paradise, because this world, were obligated to do things because
this is the cliff, that paradise is double the Alpha. It's an abode
of hospitality. Allah is the host. And when Allah is a host, a good
host, the generous hosts, open hearted host, nothing of yours, no
luxury, whatever comfort you want, nothing will be left in sha Allah.
May Allah make us of those. We move on to Allah Subhana Allah
Hidayat, and the guidance is in the hands of Allah. That's what we
learned from these verses. Now, what's next is Allah by these
verses, to show us a clear distinction about the hereafter.
We see that's the crux, belief in the hereafter. Anybody who's got a
serious belief in the Hereafter, when I'm talking about, I know we
believe in the hereafter as a tenet of faith. It's well yo
malarkey. It's their battle, the battle mode, it's there, but it's
not a reality for most of us. Once for anybody, the hereafter becomes
a reality we actually realize yes, I'm gonna go there. And I better
prepare for it. It's like, I've got a holiday booked in December.
I don't but
if I've got a holiday booked in December, I'm not going to I mean,
most people are not going to worry about that holiday for now. They
they're not gonna start packing their suitcase. Right? They've
just got the ticket. We've bought the ticket La ilaha illallah
bought the ticket. That's the ticket right? So we know we got it
by saying Lila Hill Allah we bought the ticket. Now as the days
get closer, generally your suppose as person gets older and closer to
December, then you're gonna start getting more worried. But some
people even in November, they don't care.
Even in December, even two weeks before they like don't worry.
Maybe a day before I'll pack up last week. I've got a list just
pack up last minute. Some people are very savvy, they got it all
sorted they'll be fine. Because they're very used to live with
they've organized it all. They can pack at the last minute because
they've already organized they're in their life is still is already
in order. Same kind of thing. If you notice when you got a whole
holiday like that you've got somebody's going to come and visit
you like okay, they'll come they'll come and then when it gets
closer you start getting stressed you got when I say get stressed
here but we think get worried get concerned definitely something to
worry about, about the hereafter. If that feeling of mortality, I'm
going to die and then I'm going to stand in front of Allah, the whole
life changes. That is when a person is like really changes and
the sooner that can happen to us the better insha Allah
so
Allah subhanaw taala has given lots of promises here.
Yeah, what are bucola Honey youth Rama in Yasha you've hit como esta
Calif embedded in Maya sha Allah can take you away, bring somebody
else if he wants to. Allah is Rani. Allah is totally
independent. He doesn't need anybody, though Rama but he's full
of mercy. Now, to move on. It's mentioning a number of foolishness
of the correct they were very foolish as a huge ignorant Why is
the whole time called ignorance jah jah? Helia? Uh, you know,
you've got a lot of other decadent times in history. But why is this
one not called just decadent. It's actually called Jaya Helia
ignorance because it was proper darkness. They'd been away from a
profit for a very, very, very long time. And when that happens, then
it just gets worse you need
guidance, you need an update of guidance for things to be
maintained. Otherwise it just degenerates as the nature of the
well it degenerates. So over 500 years without a prophet there,
because he saw the sign there were other prophets of Bani Israel
after he suddenly was 500. And something is no prophet.
Especially for the people of Makkah.
They had no scripture, nothing. So part of their foolishness, they'd
come up with all sorts of different ideas, right? innovated
all these ideas. So most of it was to do with animals, animals are a
big thing for them, like we have cars, animals are a big thing for
them. And that was a good source of food, of good food and so on.
So they would say, okay, these animals, these are only for Allah.
And these are for the people, but those that are for Allah, then
they would eat themselves as well. They would, I mean, they would
make up all of these different ideas. Another one of them was
that
like, Allah says, Yeah, which I know this is from verse 126, and
onwards which I really love him I thought I'm in a healthy well
anatomy now see, even right from their crops, and from their cattle
is the universe the use of the word is coming out and I'm Surah
Tula Nam anatomies cattle. Now I'm an am cattle basically. Right? So,
it says that these, in their opinion, according to their claim
are for Allah and these are for our partners. Now, whatever was
for their ascribed partners, they that would not go for the sake of
Allah but what it was for Allah they will actually give so if
Allah they believed in Allah, they believed in a superior Lord, they
just believed all of these other idols to be intermediaries. It's
very clear as mentioned in the Quran, right? Manabu Mala Yukari
buena. Illallah is Zilpha because they couldn't see Allah. But it
seems like Allah was the least in their mind. These were more
prominent and conspicuous for them. So Amaya comun what bad
judgment what color because they illegally Michigan a Cutler, hula
de him. Second foolish foolishness was the killing of their
daughters.
That is just I don't know if any other
group in the world has done that, where they've just basically
slaughtered their daughters alive. Right because of economic reasons.
And just reasons of pride and honor. SubhanAllah. Islam came
away a caiman did away with that. This is verse 137. Actually,
sorry, I was saying 126 130 2020 36 and 137 and then
work out who had the animal will have an agent lifetime. Ohana.
Ilam and Nisha, okay, these are specially sanctified animals,
nobody can eat them except those that we want. Right? And so on and
so forth. And then another foolishness was in mentioned in
139, we'll call you Matthew Bucha and Halle Havilah. Now, if an
animal was pregnant, one of the cattle was pregnant. They would
say that whatever
whatever the these embryos this new child that is only going to be
fall male folk, not for our female
so that's why they say Holly certainly do Karina when Muhammad
Allah as Virgina on our wives, they can't eat him. We're in your
couldn't meet. But now if, if it comes out dead if the embryo was
dead, then phone fee Shoraka then they both fine with it. Like what
logic is that? That's why Allah says God has zero Lilina Cthulhu
hola DOM suffer humble lady ill this concept of foolishness. No
knowledge, unawareness, ignorance.
At loss are those people who have killed their children, foolishly,
without knowledge, will haram Omarosa, whom Allah if there are
an Allah, Allah, and they prohibited that which Allah has
sustained them with they've made unlawful rather, right? And
they're doing this by slandering Allah by basically saying that,
attributing this to Allah this false notion called the Luna can
watering. Now Allah subhanaw taala after mentioning all of this
discusses some of the great bounties that Allah subhanaw taala
has given to build because remember, this is still sort of to
learn a lot of
inherently understood facts. So now Allah subhanho wa Taala turns
again, there was already a bit of discussion now there's more
discussion on fruits.
They tune your olive and your pomegranates. They you know, you
don't have banana mentioned in the Quran. You don't have the apple
mentioned in the Quran and you don't have the orange mentioned
the Quran. But you have the zaytoun and the Romain,
you definitely have the olive and the pomegranates Subhanallah just
for that reason you should have a bit you know, just for that
reason, I mean, why mention it because this a lot of benefits in
that there's not the time to go into a whole discussion about
olive oil and olives and pomegranates for that matter, but
definitely something they should think it's Quranic description
description. It's mentioned that it's been chosen
So Allah is saying Kulu In summary, he is smart when it
produces its crops you should eat. What are two hacker who Yona
Hasani? But always give the do from there that's necessary 1234
This is the there's not just here but there's another verse as well
Oh Allah 234 The concept of a Seraph is extravagant just because
you got a lot doesn't mean that you just are extravagant and you
overspend or you buy and then you waste a lot of people to do that
they buy from Costco, but they don't buy in a measured way.
Because you have to buy bulk in many cases, Costco macro, and buy
one get one free. I think they're going to prohibit that soon make
that illegal, I think in England, if they haven't done so already,
because it's just getting people to stock up. I mean, there is so
much people Subhanallah that the whole the way our economy works,
there is just so much wastage. That's why when you go to buy a
sandwich in the stores, do you ever see an end slice sandwich?
There always is middle sized? Where do the end sizes go? See,
you'll see actually in some pitches, there's truckloads that
are just disposed off. Farmers were literally pouring down milk
because right now they couldn't give it to hotels and things like
that. There's just no other contingency plan in place to feed
the poor that are basically suffering around the world. Then
Allah subhanho wa Taala mentions the various different types of
cattle, right? And animals. Simone Yetta, as well as from verse 143,
Simone Yetta, as well as may not do anything magazine called the
Quran, Johanna Milan saying all of that discussion, discussion is
there about the animals, the benefit of the animals, you use it
to mount on, transport yourself, transport your goods on you use it
to eat to consume, Allah has put so much benefits in the cattle.
Don't mess around with them. Also use them for milk. These are for
you. I mean, Islam is not a vegetarian religion. But it's not
about overindulgence of meat either. Right? In some countries,
they have to eat meat to prove that they're Muslim, for example,
in India against Hindus, right? Because of the whole beef problem.
But that's not true. You eat it when you want it. When when you
know once in a while there are benefits to meat, but you do not
eat it like that.
Every day that you must eat meat there's no such thing the prophets
Allah isn't a majority of the time did not eat meat.
Now Allah subhanho wa Taala
there's several other discussions about about the meats and about
animals and lamb Wilkins, zero and reiteration of the prohibition of
the murder. But now we jump to verse 151. This is almost like a
10 commandments of sorts. From here, this is the very famous
verse, which includes the 10 different guidances that are
pretty much should be understood by all people have a divine li
ordained religion, a divinely revealed religion. So almost like
you can say 10 commandments of salt. So the first of those is
Allah to this is called the ELO at Luma Hara Murghab Bukoba Alikum,
Allah to Shri Kobe, he Shiva. Many of us may have read this so many
times, but look at what it's saying that you do not ascribe any
partners to Allah. Number two, or Bill Wiley, Dany Sana, that you
owe that to Allah, they're the first ones that look after you
when you come into this world. So after Allah, who gives you birth,
who gives you birth in this world who gives you allowance in this
world existence in this world, then he hands it over to your
parents, he's still there. But now your parents have a
responsibility. They're the first ones. That's why after Allah, your
parents come first, all your teachers and everybody come later,
your parents come first, we'll talk to our ladder coming in luck
number three then
is do not kill your children.
Out of fear of poverty. In fact, the whole discussion of
contraception, I don't want to bring it up. But in in Islam, it's
allowed in certain in many cases, but the one case in which it is
not allowed, is if you're going to fear that you can't feed your
children and that's why you stop having children.
Because that's when mom and dad button, fill out the law, Allah
Allah Hisco Allah has taken that responsibility.
When I talk to Allah, the Community Law nananana Zuko Khumba
we're gonna feed you and them in other bases Nanos Zuko, Houma er
calm, but here's I will feed you and them. And the fourth one is
avoid all forms of obscenity and immorality and unjustified Latok
horrible fella who don't even get close to uncheck unchaste things
because it's a very slippery slope, you start with one thing,
start revealing a bit. Right and then more and more online, you put
up one picture with a bit of hair showing or with a bit of a part of
the body that shouldn't be and then it goes more and more and
more so shaytans path pathway, motherhood, I mean, how am I
button avoid obscenities whether they're hidden, or whether they're
apparent Allahu Akbar, you know, a whole new idea of hidden obscenity
today because before
Before 20 years or 30 years ago well
it was difficult it wasn't difficult but before it would be
difficult to have an obscenity inside right but now the avenues
of obscenity inside through the medium of the phone and the
Internet and so on and the consumption that people are doing
especially in this lockdown there's a greater consumption of
obscenity apparently right? Motherhood I mean how am i button
that which is hidden nobody else knows about it. This is just maybe
another way to look at this. Anyway, number five one is do not
kill any knifes do not kill anybody unrightfully which is the
majority you can just can't do that. There's very particular ways
that Islam has allowed and then ECOSOC on May Allah, this is
Allah's guidance to your counsel to you so that you understand.
Then Allah says the next one, number six is Don't get close to
the wealth of orphans.
Right?
And then it gives you some reasons there. And then number seven would
be
wonderful Kayla will Miss Anna will just make sure your balances
are correct. Your scale is correct. Your counting is correct.
What you give to others what you sell to others, how you deal with
others. All of that is correct. Local even if Sinhala was Allah we
could make mistakes in that maybe there was a slight error. We do
not make people we do not make anybody responsible for what is
beyond their ability. Right? Why they're caught on fire they do and
then the next one is the eighth one is which is that make sure
that when you speak you're just so justice one Oh Canada call but
even if that's against or in relationship to your own family,
your relatives and number nine then we'll be fulfilled the
covenant of Allah will be at the law he Oh full vertical masala
Combi
Allah Allah Comdata karoun. Okay, that's nine. The next verse one
Maha sorority, Mr. keema 153. And this is my path straight path for
tiberiu.
So follow the path and do not follow other paths, which would
then basically take you away from this path, any other path you
take, it's going to take you away from some of the paths of Islam.
So that Allah says we provide this guidance to you so that you can
have taqwa and be God fearing.
Then it moves on
to
Allah subhanaw taala 10 The Prophets Allah Islam, how the
Kitab unzila who Mubarak if you want all of these things, and you
want all goodness, this is the Book which We have revealed. It is
blessing it for tiberiu What taco lacouture Herman follow it, have
tacos so that you can gain mercy from Allah, you want mercy read
the book. May Allah subhanho wa Taala make this series that we've
done a source of mercy for us. Allah subhanho wa Taala brings up
something again from the deanery, Sally Ibrahim Ali Salam, which is
cool in the new modern era de la CRRT. Mr. Kim Dean and pm a
military Ibrahima Hanifa. Omar Carnivale Mushrik inverse 161.
Right. Just say to them remember this was all about a discourse
with the disbelievers. So finally, Allah is telling him just say to
them, that my Lord has guided me to the straight path. Right this
is the straight Venus it's the is the religion of the Ebro of
Ibrahim Ali Salam, which is the one of pure monotheism and he was
not of the isolators he was not of the those who ascribe partners and
then say call now this is you can say one of the most famous verses
of submission when a person wants to declare their submission to
Allah call in Salah teen you are no Sookie you wanna hear you want
to hear a bill? I mean? May Allah make that a reality for us say
that my prayer, my other rights, my living and my dying is all for
Allah the Lord of the worlds so those who blaspheme Allah, they
will say hey, you believe in Allah. Right? And you believe you
know, where is your God to help you in this case and everything
like that? Read this verse, this if you read this, it's almost like
a dua it's almost like giving yourself strength. Mark this mark
these verses I tried to mention some of the, you know those very
profound verses that help us in different situations like that. So
called inner solitude, which is verse 162, la sharika who will be
daddy COVID to anonymously me there's no partner for him and by
that have I been commanded around the first of the submitters, and
then finally the to end the surah. The last two verses they
distinguish between those who do good and those who do bad. The
famous idea is here what is the famous fact? What are those 010
tweezer okra nobody's gonna carry the sin and burden of another.
Right that's a clear that's a clear principle in the Quran. Yo
All Ghana well attack Cebu Luna Sinhala, Alia
and what is the reverse the rotten Mr. Okra, you're going to be in
your own grave, you're gonna have your own record books, we're all
going to have our own May Allah make our good books good. So
Madara become Mojito calm, then eventually your return is to your
Lord for you in a beautiful calm, and then he will he will inform
you be my quantum fee he talks, telephone all about all of those
things that you would differ about clearly because the truth is going
to be manifest there. But again, with everything in Arabic Allah in
Arabic a city or a club, Allah is very swift in his punishment, but
then almost always still he been through heap persuasion
dissuasion. So here there's dissuasion first and then we're in
the who love of food, right? But Allah is forgiving, and he's the
most merciful
stops at that. Now let us begin swirl our off. So now you
understand sorbitol. And basically it was about the detailed
discussion about cattle and their varieties and so on. So that is
why that sort of cultural anom The next one is suited to our Rafi
rhymes with an arm, which is the seventh Surah of the Quran. This
is also a murky Surah So it's also Meccan surah. And there are now
more verses in here 206 verses as compared to the 165 of these
previous so it moves up.
Again, it's going to discuss the fundamental beliefs and tenets.
So Allah subhanaw taala says, again, it begins with hydroflow
Macatawa. And again, you'll see the trend and if
Mia came forward kita boo Zilla Ilica, further Yakushi saadani
kaha Raj kita Boon Z lake,
the book which has been revealed to you must be a connection
between those two as the other might have mentioned.
Anyway, at the beginning of this, Allah subhanaw taala discusses
concern re iterates the living miracle which is the Quran as
which we just just mentioned, and after that, Allah subhanaw taala
speaks about certain other things about the Day of Judgment,
everything but then the main discussion for that starts at
verse 11, for example, and so on after saying well look at McKenna
can fill out, like we've settled you into in the ground, and we've
made all of your
items of welfare that you need, we've supplied you with them, but
Kalida mad dash, dash karoun You know, such little do you do you
express gratitude? You know, you're but then Allah subhanaw
taala says, we created you so the next verses 11 We'll look at Hala
canal comes from Messiah, Warnock calm, we created you, we formed
you, we gave you all of that we made you very special. Out of all
of the Creation we've created some Mokona Anil Mala is to do the
other. Then for your first Father, we set we ordered the angels to
prostrate that is to show Corona bunny and rats to show the
nobility of the human race that such pure, pure beings as angels
who can do no wrong, Allah is telling them to bow down to other
Malays Salaam for sogetsu and they did it IBLEES except the iblees
let me a communist that who did not become of the priests
traitors. Now the whole discussion is of the discourse between Allah
and the shaytaan and then other Muslims discussion called Amma
Menaka Allah test to the if Mr. To so that the whole inception of
misguidance the whole inception of deviance in this world, the
introduction of evil in this world until its purity. Now the
introduction of evil Yoshito now becomes evil becomes rejected one.
So that whole discussion is there, you know, for so many verses
beyond verse 22.
But the main thing that's disgusting there is shaytans.
Deception, right? So that the purpose of it is not just to tell
us the inception was to remind us that he was an enemy of your
father, he misled your father took them out of paradise. So why
should you become a friend of you know, in the West, we live very
individualized lifestyles, right? The philosophy now is
individualism as opposed to tribalism or family ism if that's
such a thing, right. But otherwise, everywhere else, I
mean, people were tribal, you know, they were very tribal. Like
your father said something that's it. You didn't go against your
father. That's been the patriarch article community as such, the
father whatever he said that was it, the elders of the community,
but now you'd be hard pressed to find a father and son that think
alike sometimes for good reasons that the Father is on some other
level. And mashallah the son or daughter is mashallah very guided
and, you know, gets it father is very hugely negatively cultural
because all culture is in bed. That's why
and negatively cultural. So some cases it's a good thing, but
otherwise we live individualism, right? So it's very difficult to
understand it so now telling us that your father was you know,
shaitan was the thing or your father's like, who cares about my
father, people are gonna say, Well, I say no, that's important.
Right? You have some genetics of your father at the end of the day.
Your father is important for you, meaning your father your parents
in general, not just your father, because he was your father and
your mother. There was Hello our DSLR right Eve and other Marie
Salaam. So that deception is discussed and one of the
you can inshallah read that for yourself. How Allah subhanaw taala
how shaytaan managed to make them convinced them to eat of that tree
tilicho Masha Allah Kula Kuma, Inna shaytaan, Allah Kumar I do
moving anywhere it moves on now from verse 26. It's some very
unique feature of Sutala off from verse 26. Some of you may have
noticed this expression when reading it, there's four of them.
Does anybody know what I'm talking about?
Yeah, Bernie. Yeah, Bernie. There's four of them, like very
close together. And I don't think they come anywhere else, as far as
I understand. They don't come anywhere else is for them to get
in one place. Because there's a huge discussion in about 10 verses
or so about other Marissa Lang. Right. The inception, the
deception and so on. And coming to the earth, and and now,
Allah has called me to battle documents, but now you go to the
earth and you're going to be enemies of one another, the
shaytaan. And the human is going to be an enemy.
And yeah, Benny Adam. So now Oh, children of Adam. That's who he's
addressing. That's how he's addressing us, oh, children of
Adam.
And what's interesting that out of these out of these three, yeah,
Benny Adam, which means our children of Adam four times,
right? That's verse 26. Then verse 27, then again in verse 31. And
then finally, again, in verse 35, you have any of them, three of
those are to do with clothing,
covering, covering nakedness, Allahu Akbar. And I've never
thought about this in this kind of depth. But when you look at it
together, it makes a lot of sense. So that's, as I said, it's a
special Hosea of this chapter to have this. And
the first one is, oh, Children of Adam, we've
revealed to you we've sent down Libous clothing, which will cover
your nakedness. Although the best of your clothing is your taqwa.
That's why we have some nice hobbies as well, or some well
covered men. But the attitude is not very chaste. Right? But that
doesn't mean that that should be a reason for people not to cover
well, like you show us they say, Oh, we've seen Nick hobbies, or
hijab is they're not very good at this or that. Well, why don't you
show the best example that you be good at this, that and do niqab or
have a beard? Say, Oh, those people come for? Joomla they
cheat? Well, why don't you come for Joomla not cheat and give a
better example. People have some weird shaytani ideas about these
things sometimes. So shaytaan messes some of this way, and some
of this way. So that's about Libras. The second verse is you
have any other life, Tina Nicole shaytaan, our children of Adam,
let shaytaan not lead you to fit and let him not entice you away.
And just like he took his just like He took your parents out of
Jannah right by pulling off them daily bus because when they ate
from the fruit, forbidden Allahumma. So tomorrow, and then
the whatever they were, the nakedness became revealed in the
WHO Yurakucho. And then another really ominous tone here, right?
Ominous message is like, they see you shaytaan sees you, him and his
entire tribe sees you from where you do not see them. They've got
one over you in that sense. But if you have the vicar of Allah, they
won't be able to do anything. Right. And then that is discussion
with a philosopher Heisha when they do a an aspect of obscenity
or immorality, then they make an exam, they give an excuse, they
excuses. So what they used to do with what the backdrop of this is
that they used to do throw off of the cab, naked men in the daytime
women in the evening, because they said this was an idea that the
clothing we can't wear apparently was one of the reasons what the
clothing that we wear to sin, we can't go into the office. Right?
So so if you said why are you doing this obscenity? They would
say call me widget now.
This is how we found our forefathers. This is what our
forefathers used to does, though that's an evidence. Well, and then
in some case, they wouldn't say Allahu Allah, Allah Subhana Allah
commanded us to do this. So in the beginning, somebody was actually
very relaxed it sorry before he start was very relaxed. I mean,
more * was not a big deal. No
told me the stories about the professor Larson was very young
when they were building the Kaaba. And he was very shy, very
embarrassed, you know, very a lot of a lot of
a lot of modesty. Now he's young, he was carrying stones. So they
were making a mark, he only had one loincloth on his young boy. So
his uncle told you like, you know, he felt sorry for him that is
going to make a mark. He said, Take off your line scarf, put it
there, so it protects your shoulder. You'd obviously be
naked, but that wasn't a concern. The products are after a lot of
persons did it, but then he fainted. So he had natural, may
Allah give us that modesty. Right? That kind of bashfulness. Right.
Whereas today bashfulness is out of the window. And the person's
talked about modesty being a major branch of faith that your image
your faith is impacted with a decrease in modesty and but people
think I have to do it. This is the kind of clothing they sell. This
is what Primark sells, right. There's no other clothing that you
know, and it's how everybody else dresses I don't want to look out
of place. Subhanallah look at the emphasis here.
Then Allah says you have any other Mahoto Xena, the commander called
the masjid Oh, people are children of Adam. You can take your
adornment you know when you when you especially when you go for sod
you should dress up, you know religiously when you feel solid,
because this is similar to a command of the Quran that every
Masjid every place of frustration, you should pray in good clothing.
So for a lot of people praying in T shirts is seen as very bad. In
fact, even in the West, coming out with a T shirt in public was a bad
thing before but now it's the norm. Like 100 years ago, it'd be
looked down upon for doing that everybody dressed well. As I said
for hundreds of years or 1000 years decent has suddenly totally
changed now, right and again, we don't even know how the effects of
that yet. Anyway then the famous the famous maxim of health Kulu
was shabu wala to save, eat to drink and do not.
Do not waste Do not be extravagant. Allah does not like
the extravagant ones. Okay, then the last year bunny Adama is MIT
is not about clothing. That's more about if a messenger comes to you
to tell you for money. Taka wasa fella joven Ali Malanga hasn't
been just to give glad tidings to those who do follow and have
Taqwa. Now to move on quickly. See, Allah subhanho wa Taala
mentioned these few points very important, because why is such
emphasis in so many verses, and especially the ones that relate to
the children of Adam? Right? And three of them are about basically
morality, and clothing. Now, throughout history, the majority
overwhelming majority of tribes and peoples of the world clothing
was part of it. Yes, you do have a few you do have in some different
places where clothing?
Well, clothing is not a big deal. But I think even among them,
there's very few who actually expose everything thing in terms
of the genitalia, that's, you know, really majority overwhelming
majority would cover at least that much. That's a federal, it's a
federal, right. But they're just finding new ways to make it lesser
and lesser, because obviously, there's the attraction about it.
It's not the time to get into this. But these verses are very
telling that this is one of the first ways of shaytaan. And you
know, how we can see that is whenever there's a Muslim country
where they women dress, you know, covered the one of the biggest
criticism like when they went to Afghanistan and other places,
right? One of the biggest criticism of liberal or one of the
biggest missions of liberalisation is to change the dress.
That's a big idea. That's a big deal. That's why there's a
constant attack on hijab.
The simplest answer to hijab is not it's my choice, because the
question that comes up is, why is it your choice? You've been
indoctrinated to make that choice? A lot of women say, because it's
my choice, it's not really an answer. It's an answer. On one
level, the real answer is, why is there even a problem with covering
your hair? Why is it any less better than not covering? Why is
wearing jeans and T shirts superior from a statistical
research oriented, health oriented perspective, who says who sets
these values, but it's so ingrained that this is
subdued subjugation that people have an issue so you need to
challenge that subjugation, aspect? And challenge, okay, who's
making these value judgments for you? And why is your value
judgments superior to mine, I wear hijab because I think it's
superior for me because my Lord told me that you wear it because
your culture tells you that I think my Lord is superior to the
culture. So, you have to get it to that fundamental level, but
remember this that this is something you should really
reflect upon those who are having doubts about the whole, you know,
hijab issue or whatever. Why is this such a strong link talking
about children of Adam after the talking about the deception of, of
the shaytaan
to other mighty salaam, and the whole idea that's mentioned here
that their nakedness was exposed after they ate from the tree.
That's the first path once you once you see
Doing that everything you a lot of people say that that's the change
we see among people when they clothing changes, we see the whole
mindset change as well. Or maybe the clothing follows the mindset.
Now, the next part then, is in sort of Allah subhanaw taala then
moves on to the discussion of paradise, the hereafter,
Allahu Akbar.
Those who do wrong, they're not going to enter into paradise. But
then there's this whole discussion about see the discussion now is
about the two groups the believers and the disbelievers. And then
Allah subhanho wa Taala provides a discourse as to what's going to
happen on the Day of Judgment after decisions have been made. So
Allah subhanho wa Taala says when the US How will those people who
go into paradise now they're going to have a discourse of the people
of hellfire, when are the most horrible Genetti us Herban called
the budget and why didn't rob buena? Hakka? Allahu Akbar I wish
we can say that one day. Right? The people of Jana are going to
tell the people of the fire and say that, you know, whatever our
Lord promised us we find it to be truth Hamdulillah you know, the
all of those places the teacher said he's going to come in the
exam when he got into Al Hamdulillah was there imagine the
DUA you have in your heart then Hamdulillah you know, that's just
thank you God right? For how do I get to my what either Abu come
haka, what about you know, what about what your loads promised?
Did you find that to be the truth, but what being a homer hijaab then
after that, there's going to be some people. So this paradise and
there's *, and then there's a out of which is what this surah is
being named after? What is this out of our office kind of this
intermediate realm between Paradise and *? Like, Midway,
right, a cafe in between, not a very good service station, but
it's in between and there's going to be people on there who are
these these are believers by the way, because if disbelievers
that's hellfire, if you're a believer, but you're Allah protect
but if the evil deeds are more than the good deeds, then a
judgement hasn't been made to send you to hellfire either then you're
on our off cycle waiting it's gonna be quite tough. But I guess
some people might think at least is better than being in hellfire.
Right but I don't know if anybody's going to compare like
that on that day now in perspective it seems like the but
when you're on the day, it's like a knot in paradise.
So there's also a discussion now between the people of the hour off
and the people of hellfire but that happens after this one or the
US herbal out Ilija the foreigner whom BC EMA whom
ALLAH says in verse 49, or the whole Jana tele homophone either
you can Wallah and that has no because even these people have the
are off to the Mercy of Allah. They will also go into paradise
with who will Jana now enter paradise. Right? And now there's
going to be no fear on you and you're never going to grieve. So
then what are the US herbal nerdy us herbal Jannetty and a fee to
Elena minima? Now that people have hellfire, they look at the people
of paradise and why do they see it just just to make it worse for
them when you see the goodness and you can't get in? So they say send
some water down like pour some water down for us you've got
water. Remember they're not going to have water they're going to
have boiling water that's going to basically just tear up the
intestines inside a feed do Elena minima oh me Marissa Kamala
whatever else Allah has provided you with send some down for us.
They will say in Allah ha Rama Houma Alka feeding Allah has made
it unlawful on the disbelievers. Alladhina Taha dudina Hula, hula,
right well, arriba those who used to make the deen into a mockery
into a plaything or Tamil HYAH to dunya. And this dunya had deceived
them for Leo Manansala home so today, we're going to make them
forgotten, just as they had for made forgotten this day of ours.
They're never worried about this day. Remember your tickets booked
for December.
You know what I mean by December not dying in December, but you
know what I mean? You better focus don't forget that you have to go
then miss your flight completely, but they still have to end up
there.
So, then Allah subhanho wa Taala mentions a number of other things
from verse 54. I'm going to just quickly do this. Allah subhanaw
taala talks about certain
cosmic ideas about creating the heavens and earth in six days.
Then Allah subhanaw taala talks about the arch, which is a huge
symbol of his might, because in a hadith, the Arsh the world as
compared just to the kursi the footstool is basically like a ring
thrown into a vast desert.
A ring in a vast desert. This is no comparison. That's the size,
the physical size of the arch. And that arch is actually the roof of
the highest paradise, the penthouse. That's how big there's
a lot of real estate up there. Because remember the last person
out of *
will fire the biggest sinner in the world who finally gets
forgiven.
He's going to have up to 10 times the size of this world. So there's
a lot of real estate out there, that Allah has preserved for us.
Then Allah subhanho wa Taala mentions a number of other things.
And finally,
the last few, the last few sections of this chapter, they are
about the various different prophets, just different prophets
and they're just short short stories, short, short, anecdotal
stories from about five or six different profits just for us to
learn from. So let's just it's the profits that will be the first one
starts at verse 59. Look at our Salina new hunt, so talks about
new highs and very briefly not a huge story, not a very detailed
story. Know how this alarm then who that is that I'm sorry honey,
salaam luta Ali Salam tribalism and moosari. Salah and what are
the wisdoms in this you can go through this yourself and reflect
over them. The wisdoms in is to show that most of these prophets
were harmed by their people opposed by their people, and
slandered and given a lot of difficulty. So while we're not
prophets, but we can expect also to be harmed by people who, if you
especially when you become a bit more practicing, you're going to
it's the Sunnah of the Prophet, let's put it that way. If you
there's a lot of people who don't wear hijab, then when they start
wearing it, the worst time is the beginning first few weeks, your
own friends, your own families, and what are you doing? They're
gonna start feeling guilty. Right? They're gonna start feeling good.
So they're gonna say like, why are you doing you're making us feel
guilty? I won't say that though. You're gonna face a lot of
opposition. Just Just remember that this is the way of the
prophets you do it for your iman that's why it's almost like a
granted that you're gonna get some difficulty May Allah give us Afia
but you're gonna get some difficulty for your faith. And
that's just the normal trend of Allah for people who do good and
for belief. So that's one of the benefits. Number two, what will be
eventually though those who are arrogant and those who do these
who commit these harms and problems, what is the ending so in
all of these, they talk about the ending.
Right in in in a lot of them. They discuss about the ending. And
so you have for Angelina who will Edina matter who will be rahmati
Mina will Katana Derby, Ron Medina because that will be it now, Mr.
Kernan. What mean? Verse 72, for example, you've got again for
Angelina who Allah about
Saudi Howdy, salam, or luta Ali Salam, we, we gave him safety, we
delivered him and his family except his wife, she was messed
up. Right, even though having a profit as a husband, kind of
middle of I beat him while I'm talking to him and we showered the
reins upon them. And then so that it talks about the evil
consequence of those who do wrong. Then after that, it also tells us
that one of the things that you learn from all of this is that
it does take time for persecution to stop for difficulties to
discontinue And for goodness to come and for ease and smoothness
to be realized. It does take time in the Sunnah of Allah in the way
of Allah that happens, right? But there's definitely no darkness in
that you will be illuminated in the heart, the more difficulties
you go, once you go beyond the threshold, you'll actually start
feeling that and number. The next one is that it also then
reiterates the truthfulness of the Prophet sallallahu, Ellefson and
rissalah. And finally, there's lots of other advice that we can
take from there through you know, the difficulties faced and so on
and so forth. Now to round it up, or round it off rather,
we just go through quickly, there are some Fick and theology points
mentioned at the beginning, about saying Bismillah forgot the
beginning of the eighth chapter, saying Bismillah upon your, upon
the the be upon the animal that you are sacrificing, and don't eat
from that which Allah's name has not been taken on. Then after that
the heart being Allah subhanaw taala opening up the heart and so
on, and constriction of the heart, the expansion of the heart for
Islam, it's from Allah. So ask Allah if you're having trouble
with these kinds of things. Then the next thing is how, how
shaytaan adorn certain deeds for people were covered because the
yen Alec Surah, Al Anon verse 137. Right, and how you just told to
leave those who don't believe just further home when I left the room
in verse 137, for example, then there's the discussion of
if you think about if you there'll be numerous lessons that you learn
just in general as you're going through, but
The one verse which was a very important verse, which was called
in Salah t when usuki Yama, Yama, Marathi Lillahi Rabbil Alameen,
which is the verse 162, where everything of ours should be for
Allah subhanho wa taala. So that finishes of Surah to Anam Surah
are off then discusses the whole discourse of the shaytaan his
rejection of the Malay salaam, and then how other one Islam ate, and
then everything that happened afterwards, and the revealing of
the nakedness. And then the bunny Adam, the four Yeah, Benny Adams
are children about the money so long. But one of the points that I
want to highlight is verse 100, verse 17.
Shaitan says this, I've left it to the last thumb Mala Tian Nahum
mean benei ad him well, I mean healthy him, one Emani him one
Shama at him. What does he do ACARA homeshare. Killeen. This is
shaytans kind of warning promise, whatever his Well, he's saying,
I'm surely going to approach them, attack them, beguile them whatever
right from in front of them from behind them from the right from
the left, you will not find the majority of them to be grateful.
We want to be grateful we want to go against that because if we are
not grateful and we fall into this, we've lost shaytans one in
that sense. So some orlimar have said that that's why you really
want from Allah and you're scared of all of these others get into
sujood shaytaan can come to you from the sujood cannot come to you
from the frustration.
Another point is the verse 33. Going into Mahara Mirabell fava
Haish Malzahar Amina Amma button which we talked about the Allah
has prohibited amid unlawful all forms of immoralities whatever
that be, right, and the hidden the open. And may Allah protect us
from that as well. The discussion, the discourse between the people
of hellfire and paradise in paradise and are off and so on.
And then finally,
when you look at when you read the description of the enemies of
Allah, and the enemies of the prophets, and they say, for
example, in Allah Naraka feed dollar early morphine, we see you
in this is this was the accusation to the on the prophets from his
people. We see you in manifest error, like we think your ways are
wrong. This is the real way this is the enlightened way. Can you
see parallels? Right? Now the one in verse 16. That was 60 Verse 66.
Again in LA neurography Safaga why Weiner, Lenovo new criminal
Kennedy been, right, we see you in foolish we see that you know, you
have foolishness, right? Engaged in foolishness, and we just think
of you to be to be wrong. That's where the statements of
letterboxes come from. The Muslim women resemble letterboxes. It's
basically to have that kind of psycho linguistic discourse, to
demean and to make inferior, this whole practice to make it seem
like No How can that be the case? To such a degree that even some
Muslims believe that or sway in that direction? That niqab is too
much. The wives of the books are awesome, did it so even if you
don't want to do it, don't take it out of Islam. Right? Even if you
can't do it, you don't want to do it. That's fine. That's
understandable. As long as you don't reject it, don't reject it
and consider it something to be just ISIS. Right? And
unfortunately, ISIS may have done that, which basically puts niqab
in a bad light they hijack the niqab and the and the beards and
all the rest of it, which is a problem anyway, that by that we
end our eighth use of the Quran May Allah subhanaw taala accept.
May Allah accept Sorry, I've gone a bit over bought again and it's
becoming a bit of a trend he has to stop. So inshallah one hour is
what we promised that we should stick to that so please pray that
we can do that tomorrow in sha Allah one hour, and may Allah
subhanaw taala bless you all. Wherever you are, please remember
us in your doors, and may Allah shower the rest of your Ramadan
with great blessings and drenched in His mercy and may Allah
subhanho wa Taala make this Ramadan better than any Ramadan
before it while he read that one annual Hamdu lillahi rabbil
aalameen
