Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim Namu Salli ala Rasulillah hillclimb
today Insha Allah we want to cover the story of Solomon Ali Salam
salam ala Ali Salam story is mentioned not as much as Musa Ali
Salam story which has mentioned throughout in many stories but
Sulaiman Aniston story is mentioned in different different
aspects I mentioned as well, in some sort of the normal, sort of
the normal, which is about the end, there's a lot of description
in there, then we have sort of soft fat there after that we have
certain Ambia, the chapter of the prophets that mentioned so there
might be some story as well and then sewer to saba. Now Saba is
really important area that historically was very important,
which Allah subhanaw taala discusses. And Solomon is some
story is mentioned there as well. So a few main points about Solomon
Ali salaam, before we see what kind of lessons we can take from
him. But I think Soleimani some story today is actually very, very
relevant to us. The reason is that there's probably been nobody else
who's been given as much as today, one artist alone was the amount of
wealth and control and dominion and sovereignty that that Sulaiman
al Islam was given. I don't think anybody else given access to human
beings, pretty much
his dominion encompassed a huge area, until eventually, this who
pay of his he had a bird, he had the kingdom of the birds, and the
animals were under him. They would all I mean, this is mind boggling.
I mean, you just can't even fathom this, like, you know, the one is
the human army ranked in front of him in I don't know how many
hundreds of 1000s or whatever, right? And then you've got all the
animals that he had control over, he could listen to them, you could
hear them. I mean, can you even imagine something like this, it's
just difficult to even imagine that all the animals are standing
there,
you know, to his attention. It's just mind boggling, not just that
the gym as well. So the gym, and they're very powerful. They're
very, very strong. So they will actually he would get them to make
stuff for him and construct big buildings, and, you know,
edifices, and so on and so forth. Not just that, he also had the
wind under his control to move such an army to be able to control
it, he had the wind and this control. So he didn't have to
travel and a horse or an animal or all the animals under his
disposal, but he didn't have to travel on that. He had his his,
whatever, his flying carpet or whatever, it wasn't a flying
carpet, but his arch, or his
platform, his traveling platform, whatever it was, it's such a bad
name for it. Right? If we could have a better name for that his
traveling, car or vehicle, whatever it was, it would be what
our who would do her, Sharon, whatever, who has
the wind would would would do that just the morning time and do a
month journey. So he could, you know, in those days by walking or
on horseback, right, we should probably be the first fastest
animal they will travel on how much of a distance Can you cover
in a month on a horse, for example, the wind could do that in
the morning. And in the evening, you'd come back to take a flight
or in the morning and flight back in the evening. Right SubhanAllah.
And that's exactly what happens with flights today. That's what
they do. I don't know if anybody's done the equation of how many how
much of a distance it compares to in terms of a horse's distance of
likes, it'd be interesting to know, right? But this was doing
that at a time when there was no such thing as flight. So anything
like that, in the morning, this he could he could control this. So he
pretty much had everything under his control, he had actually made
a dua for this.
Give me a milk, a dominion, which is not going to be appropriate for
anybody else, which will not be befitting for anyone else
afterwards. Now with all of this, generally what happens is that
wealth and control and position intoxicates you know, everything
has a fitna meaning everything has a trial attached to it, that you
will do this, but this is the trial that comes with this. If
you're if men are going to mix with a lot of women, there's going
to be fitna there unless you're married, right, meaning if you're
married to them. Generally most people are married to one they
keep mixing with fight. That's what happens in workplaces. You
know, marriages break down because of that. There's a fitna with
everything. Likewise, if you're going to be in a sweet shop all
day, right, you're probably going to eat some sweets, and then
you've got diabetes, you're trying to be on a diet, you're in a
fitness room, and you're in a wrong place for that kind of
stuff. Likewise, if you're fasting, and you're sitting around
with all of these drinks and chocolates, and I mean, that's the
wrong thing to do. It's a fitna that you're going to, you know, be
involved in. So likewise, when you have a lot of money, opposition,
it generally makes you feel stronger. self confident, secure,
independent. Think about it. Because when you can buy whatever
you want, when there's nobody to question you because you're the
one who's the boss, you are the boss.
us, then who's going to question you. So you feel like you can do
what you want.
Unless you've got some kind of consciousness of somebody higher
than you, Allah subhanaw taala you could then end up being unfair,
unjust,
oppressive, that's exactly what happens. This is why people with a
lot of power, they end up doing this kind of stuff if they don't
have some kind of balance in their life, and the best way to have
balance is through Allah subhanaw taala.
And this is what it does. intoxicates you it makes you feel
invincible. Musa alayhis salam mannerism had the greatest
Dominion more than any other prophet more than any other person
before him and after him. But yet he did not. Initially, he kept
making dua, that I want to be thankful and he kept being
thankful to Allah subhanaw taala it was constantly just so for
example, let's just mentioned a few of his stories, we don't have
the time to mention all of his stories. In fact,
the sum of stories I mentioned all together, I can mention the verses
to you, and you can even check them up later. But Suniva was a
son of Dawood and so now that with that Islam himself had certain
miracles Allah had given him what I still none of ya know, Peter,
Allah subhanaw, Taala had made molten metal, when you call it,
copper and other things,
that he was able to mold them to his way and he used to make a coat
of armor with it. That was one of the ways he would do that. Number
two, he had a very good voice, right, and people would just be
amazed by his voice Suniva and Islam became, well, what is the
Solomon without? So nowadays, and we already know about him, he's
one of the mightiest prophets among the Bani Israel. He was they
were they were prophets to the Israelites. So they were not Islam
becomes his inheritor. And Allah gives him a lot more.
There was a story that took place about
two women. One of them had a young child, it was her child. There was
an older one, there was a younger one, the older one hadn't had a
child. And suddenly this younger one comes in claims, the child
says that's my child. So they both arguing over this child, maybe she
couldn't have a child or whatever. That's why she went to the child.
You know, that's what they go and do they * children, right?
From hospitals, or they get surrogate children. Right? Or they
buy children, unfortunately, you know, or whatever they adopt
adopting children. Okay, that's a better thing, right of those who
don't have. So they were both arguing so they were brought to
Soleimani Salam, and Soleimani Salam said
No, first they were about to die with Ali Salaam. And they would
Ali salaam made a judgment for who? Who remember the story.
When he gave it to the one who he was not he gave it I think he gave
it to the younger one. Right? From what I recall. So the Sulaiman Ali
salaam, he said, Hold on.
Now there's a linear approach, and there's a lateral approach. So
remember, I said, the way to make this judgment is this bring me a
knife.
Right now, it's got nothing to do with this story. And nothing to do
with the case is bring your knife. So now both of these women are
watching what's going on? So this is okay, what I'm gonna do is,
since you're both claiming it, and none of you have proof, let me
slice this baby in half. And I'll give you one half and I'll give
you one half
the older one at that moment, and no, no, no, no, no, just give it
to her, it hurts give it to her.
Now, from that, he figured out that it must be for the older one,
because she's got more. It's not like that other one didn't care
for the child. But it says this one spoke out first. So the idea
was that this is my child, I'd rather keep the child alive than
to get half a child and let him be killed. So lateral approach, it's
another way of thinking, and Soleimani. Salam had that
understanding. Now, one of the one of the occasions there insert a
number and the reason why this whole surah is called surah. The
novel is the story of the ant, we just, you can go and read it. It's
from verses 16 to verses 19. You can go and check that out for
yourself and read it in detail, because we don't have the time to
go into all of that detail. But it says that once he's going in his
glory, with all of his forces and everything and suddenly, because
he was able to hear what does he mean he was able to hear he was
able to hear and understand. Scholars, if you look at the tough
seas, they have all of these opinions of exactly how is he was
he able to learn the language? Did he know how ants spoke? Did he
know the alphabet as such, or whatever the noises they make. And
what's really interesting is that ant is a very, very interesting
creation of Allah subhanaw taala itself, okay? So they have
different views, different opinions, Allah gave them an
understand they could perceive from their what they're saying, or
they actually knew the language or whatever Allah knows best.
But we do know that he understood it, because it says that as he's
going, there's an anthill, and there's some ants there scurrying
around and suddenly an ancestor, the others nimbler just one single
ant says, that look, you better get into your, into your hollow in
the ground. Because when this they're not going to check in,
they're too big, you know, they can't maybe even see it. They want
to see the complaint. He was just being cautious. Scholars
discussed, are they complaining? Or are they just being cautious?
You know, when he's complaining that they're not going to see you
because they're too big? No, not necessarily. They can't notice
you. They're so small. So get into your, into your hollow in the
ground, into your burrows. So Subhanallah had Eva ATO Allah
Allah didn't normally call it name Latin. Yeah, you had an omelet?
Hello masa Kena comme la de mana consola ima and what do you know
the one like Arun, he actually shows that very intelligent, well
whom later on they won't know they won't realize they won't realize
sometimes, you know, we may have stepped over and we don't realize
because you're not looking. And sitting mannerism heard this
forever. Some of dahican melancholia, he smiled. We'll call
it a Robbie Jose. And now this is the beautiful part this is May
Allah give us the trophy for this. You know, think of this
emotionally that you are seeing
suddenly the fruits of the qualities that you have, you're
seeing a benefit of one of the characteristics that you have. For
example, let's just say you had said something put in a good word
for someone and then you got the news that mashallah he gave him
the job because of you. How are you going to feel that, mashallah,
because of what I said, Now, you could feel various different
emotions. Yeah, man, you know, my word works. I've got control, he
listens to me. That's one way of looking at it. That happens
normally, that's just the psychology of the way people deal
with Successes In Life. It makes you feel bloated, it makes you
feel important, special, right? There's nothing wrong with that,
as long as you control that emotion, and apply it and
attribute it to the right place. This is exactly what the Dean
tells us so that you don't exalt This is what Soleimani Salam said
in verse 19. He says,
My Lord, give me enable me to thank you for your bounties
that you have showered upon me and upon my parents.
And I do good deeds by which you are happy, and enter me by Your
mercy among your righteous servants. He knows he's got the
greatest power in the world. He's got the greatest assets, most
powerful everything. But he knows that what is most important is to
be among the righteous servants of Allah because he's recognizing
someone above him, which is the supreme god, which is Allah, our
Creator.
How does one this is to tell us that how does one despite having
every I mean, we don't have anything compared to what he had.
So how does somebody immediately think of Allah, when you've just
had a major windfall when you just had such a success?
If the wealthy people, if the people in power can actually just
attribute things to Allah subhanaw, Taala bit more often, we
probably have less misery, we'd have more justice, we'd have more
equality in the world. And we'd have more goodness and virtue in
the world. That's a major, that's a major benefit for us to
understand. Now, if we move on to verse 20, what the fuck are the
payroll for Karla malleolar are all good. Now. He used to look
after his animals and his armies. So he was checking the birds out
and he says there's a who pay missing? There was a certain who
pay that he was probably attached to this is where's he gone? How
come I don't see the who pay money? Right? Law Earl Hood Hood?
I can't see the Hood Hood? Where's he gone? I'm caught in the middle
of it. You know, he's just not here. Is he just camouflage
somewhere? Or is he just not present? I'm going to punish him
severely. Right? Or I'm going to second he was very angry at the
time. He says I'm going to either punish him severely, or I'm going
to slaughter him. Unless he brings me some clear proof of, you know,
good reason excuse for why he's not there. It didn't have to wait
for too long. When suddenly, the Hubei comes along and he says you
know what?
I'm going to just paraphrase this because it's a very long session.
When you look at the F series, there's lots of detail here. Juicy
detail, some from the Israelite sources, not necessarily all
correct, not necessarily all we can rely on but what we what the
Quran does tell us that much we can rely on right. So he says, I
have brought you some information which you do not have, which you
do not currently have, right I've come from Southern. Now this is
the land of the
Sub bytes. This is in Yemen. Today, if you check on Google Maps
you can look for sub and or Maghreb. Look for Maghreb or sub.
This is a place in Yemen, where the original Arabs eventually came
from. Now when the when the there was a huge dam here and Allah
subhanaw taala bless this place and Allah, Allah mentions that in
another shorter in Surah two sub
Allah says
no, actually no, I have not got those verses here. Allah subhanho
wa Taala talks about giving them so many bounties and from where
they were all the way up into Arabia, and all the way up to
Syria sham they had mashallah
places like service stations, so small Hamlet's that they had
established, because they were trading people. So they had two
benefits. Number one, they had a huge dam. Right. And because of
that dam, the irrigation system was amazing. So they had the best
of fruits, you know, streets lined with fruits of various different
types and crops and everything like that. And then even in their
journey, they would be able to stop at convenient places in their
journey up north, because they had these places, these small Hamlet's
that had been prepared like service stations, right? But they
were arrogant people and they really they essentially, you can
say,
committed tyranny, and because of that the dam broke. And it just
flooded and there's numbers of how much crops how many people did not
survive. Now there were
lots of tribes that did survive and they escaped, they basically
took off to save themselves. And you can actually then trace from
there. One of those groups, they settled in many Madina Munawwara
they became the bunu kala right and that's from whom came the Osen
coverage right so from there's different groups that went to
different places now this is not a history lesson right because about
Superman and Eastern I'm just trying to tell you that the Hood
Hood had gone to this area and found the the Queen the Queen was
called Bill peace
Bill keys what do they call it in English?
She but then Jen refer to a Shiva probably from Sabah because that's
her name was Bill keys is not Saba Shiva, maybe that's where again,
that looks like a Ethiopian term. I think there's lots of traditions
about about her describing her. But that's they were ruled by Bill
keys. Now, they did not believe in God, they did not believe in God.
So that's why Hood Hood came and told him this information. So now
the story is is long, but what exactly happened is Soleimani
Salam sent her a note.
So through the who pay this bird, and the note was Bismillah R
Rahman Rahim.
Allah Allahu Allah, what do we need Muslimeen probably one of the
shortest letters ever written that we've got documented. In the Name
of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful. Don't try to overcome me
Don't try to be don't try to attempt tyranny over me.
And come to me in submission. That's it. Now she's a ruler.
She's a sovereign. So when she gets this, she's like,
you know, generally when people get those kinds of things like
the, the leader of the Persians at the time that has rows, and then
probably salaries, tell him you're so arrogant. You just told the
lecture up, didn't realize that this is coming from somewhere, you
better be careful. Nobody writes letters to you like this, unless
they mean something. And they have the power of something. So she
consulted you can tell she was a decent person. She was consulting.
What should we do about this? Now to how did the thieves they
mentioned that? How does who pay get this letter to her? She's
constantly well guarded, says that she was in her room in her private
chamber. And it was a window open. So what it is she was sleeping. So
he went in from there, and he dropped the letter there, right?
And then he sat there waiting for her. When she woke up. She was
like, Where did this come from unguarded. Nobody can come in
here. And she's looking around, and suddenly she sees towards,
looks towards the window and sees the hoop and realizing and looks
at it. So it's all quite amazing. The way it was. It was quite
incredible for her, she makes a mushroom and she says that look,
if this guy is a king, the person was telling me to come if he's a
king of the world, like a normal not really God and all of this
claim that he's making, then let's figure this out. So they decided
to take some huge gifts and send them
because if he's a worldly person gives a that's exactly what I
want. Right? So he would be happy with that. And Solomon and Islam
said no further merger or Sulayman when they came when they came with
that to Sulaiman Ali salaam,
delegation, not Shiva. She did not come there below keys. It was her
people called a to me doing an email Are you trying to increase
me in wealth that Allah has given me so much you're trying to add to
my wealth
from our attorney Allah who hide whatever Allah has given me is
much more superior Mima atta come Belen to me hottie yeah to come
from home. You'll be happy with your with your gifts you'll be
happy with it you enjoy its energy at him now go back to them return
to them fill in the unknown if you understood Arabic those who
understand Arabic these are very mighty words they sound awesome
even in Arabic
era J la him Falana Tian Hoon Buju didn't love P Bella. You can only
appreciate that in Arabic, we're going to come to them with such a
force such an army that there's no comparison to it. There's no
defense for that kind of an army. Right. And
when a NOC region hoomin Ville little warm South Iran, these are
words of Jalla Al and might and we're going to evict them out of
there. And they're going to be humiliated
La ilaha illallah so they're going to come now right? And as she's on
her way, I'm just cutting the story short as she is she's on her
way. So Lima Islam has heard right the news about this new kingdom
and heard that she had this really amazing throne and his
descriptions in the in the Hadith in the tough seasons on as to why
he was so great was majestic. And you had this many pearls on it and
all the rest of it. I'm not going to go into that. It was an amazing
throne. Right? So So Neymar is that he's got everything at his
disposal, he says called a U haul mellow au Camilla Dini be out she
her Cabela a Tony Muslimeen which one of you can bring me her throne
now think about Soleimani Islam. Most likely he's in Jerusalem. He
is in the holy lands, right? There are two opinions about this. But
the stronger opinions that that is where he is. From there. You have
to come all the way down the Arabian coast to Yemen, pick up a
throne that is heavy and bring it back. How long is that going to
take? Now they've already set off and he said Now bring me a throne
and before they left the throne was it looks like an item of pride
for them. So they had locked it up in some serious security who's
going to bring it from me so that's the interesting story here.
Quarter a free to mineral gin one of the gin that were at his
disposal he says unnati kabhi he cobbler and Tacoma McCormick I
will bring it to you before you can stand up so before I could
stand up like this, it'll be here that's fast enough. I'm just
wondering from a perspective of physics How can you do that? You
know the law of resistance and all of that how do you get a throne
like that goes I mean first go so fast travel so fast come back
within a few seconds. How is that possible? Right but this Jin could
do it I've got some ideas about this. I'll explain
what you need any healer cover up. I mean, I am fully able to do this
and I'm trustworthy I'll bring it Carla Lydia in the who are Elmo
Milan Kitab now remember, I talked about a smaller Hill album right
the mighty name of Allah there was somebody well this is not
necessarily a smaller a smaller allow them he says the one who had
the knowledge of the book this is also if you've not been here
apparently right who was there? He had certain formula that he had
some knowledge by which he says N T Kirby he Cobla in your head the
Ilica terrific how much faster than before you stand up like how
much more faster is that I can get it for you before the blink of an
eye before your your your
your eyelids move. I mean that's just
this just shows you the might of Sulaiman Elisa, it just goes to
show that the person has so much at his disposal literally right to
transport a huge chunk of whatever it was made of from there to here.
And there it was. Fun Amara who was stuck Iran in London Sunday so
in front of me again, color has been familiar rugby
Subhan Allah
a person's connection with Allah, this is what I revelant not what
he had at his disposal, that is their right but how he can relate
this to Allah each time he sees in front of him. Oh, yeah, wonderful,
Mashallah. You did wonderful now. Have them in familiar rugby. This
is from the grace of my Lord. And then he knows it's a fitna he
knows it's a test. He says, Leah blue honey ash Kuru. I'm at four.
So he can test me to see if I'm going to be grateful or not.
So he's like, No, I know the test here. Not only am I fulfilling the
test, I know it's a test and I'm saying it's a test. That's
presence. That's what you call Malefor.
Allah, that's what you call real knowledge about Allah in real
connection with Allah. You know what you're doing? You know, when
you need to be talking about Allah and thinking, are you thinking, Am
I, the only person who can do this is the one who thinks of Allah all
the time. Otherwise, this is so distracting, it's so amazing that
it'd be distracting to you, right?
You know, like you've been trying to do something suddenly gets
fixed, like, Oh, wonderful, you know, he's gonna fix you like,
just elated by that in that moment. You know, people were
thinking about hamdulillah It must be because what it is they are
always in the back of their mind. They had Allah, Allah is gonna
allow this to happen, okay, I'm using means, right? Because Allah
is gonna like, I just make dua and he's gonna come here, he could do
that. But I have to take means but he's constantly thinking about
Allah. So then when it happens, it's Allah.
So there it was. Anyway, he put it there he had it changed slightly,
just slightly changed.
Color nathula Asha, nuns are adapted. The story goes that the
jinn were frightened. So Imam Islam didn't have any children at
that time. And the jinn, they knew that Bill quiche is very
beautiful. If he gets married to under have children, then they're
going to stay under control of the of his children. They weren't they
were wanted to get out of this. So they apparently sent a rumor that
she's very ugly, or she is no not ugly. She's got hairy feet or bad
feet or legs. And the other thing said that she's not very
intelligent.
So something like that is you find that in the sources, it's not in
the Quran, that part is not in the Quran. So as soon as I wanted to
test her, so in Nakula, Asha Nanda attest that he will she be guided
and understanding. So when she came and the throne is there, said
de la lucha somebody said, Is this
your throne?
A haka ours? No. Is this is your throne like this? So she said, Go
and know who it is as if it is it? It is as if it is it. So it's a
it's a very good answer. Like I'm not saying it's mine, because
like, How'd you get a physical body like the up to here where
it's time, but it's exactly like it.
So then he had this Glass Palace constructed. And he had the bottom
part of it filled with water. And there was a glass on top of it. So
it was so clear that you couldn't see the glass you thought it was
water. You know, he had all of this at his disposal on this
technology. So he said, Okay, oh, the holy Tsar
gone enter into the palace. So as she's going there, she thought it
was water for La Mara to Hacienda to logia. Waka chef at answer,
Satya. So she thought we are going to get wet because this water she
didn't realize the glasses. So she lifted up. And he saw that No,
actually, it's not what they're saying. And there's different
opinions as to exactly where they said that she was. She did have
hair there. But then he found a way to remove that. And there's
lots of unknown we're gonna get into that. But the main thing is
Soleimani son told her no, in the Husar humara domain cover Eve.
This is actually a palace made of glass. So then she said that's
when she declared it. That's her test done. Right and she got her,
her consciousness about Allah subhanaw taala got a letter B in
the volume to enough see what a slim to master a man and Allah
here have been I mean, she said, My Lord, I have wronged myself.
And now I submit with today man, Ali Salam to the Lord of the
Worlds she became Muslim. There's opinions about whether he married
her or not one opinions he married her but then let her stay there
and he would go and visit her once every month using his flying you
know,
vehicle right and you stay there for two three days another
opinions that he got her married to somebody else. Allah knows
best. But what Allah tells us here is the story of his power. And he
shook and that is the lesson we take. We don't have much power to
be honest. But we feel that we have some power and security and
mashallah means that our disposal May Allah subhanaw taala make us
have the shackling. May Allah make us of the thankful ones and never
let us be of the those who are not thankful with the story that we
have May Allah bless us all working with that one and in hamdu
Lillahi Rabbil Alameen the point of a lecture is to encourage
people to act to get further an inspiration and encouragement,
persuasion. The next step is to actually start learning seriously
to read books to take on a subject of Islam and to understand all the
subjects of Islam at least at the basic level, so that we can become
more aware of what our deen wants from us. And that's why we started
Rayyan courses so that you can actually take organize lectures on
demand whenever you have free time, especially for example, the
Islamic essentials course that we have on there, the Islamic
essential
A certificate which you take 20 Short modules and at the end of
that inshallah you will have gotten the basics of most of the
most important topics in Islam and you'll feel a lot more confident.
You don't have to leave lectures behind you can continue to be, you
know to listen to lectures, but you need to have this more
sustained study as well as aka la harem salaam aleikum wa
rahmatullah wa barakato.
