			Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al
hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:09
			Salatu was Salam ala so you didn't
know Salim. While he was sabiki or
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:13
			Baraka was unlimited Sleeman
Kathira en el Iommi been Ummah
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:14
			buried.
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:20
			For the next several sessions,
what I'm going to be covering is
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:26
			a description and detail of what
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:30
			the soul Wolf is all about what
Sufism is supposed to be all
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:30
			about.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:35
			There's obviously a lot of
misunderstanding and confusion
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:40
			about the soul of Sufism,
spirituality Teskey, or however
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:45
			you want to call it, despite the
fact that it's such an important
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			part, meaning the essence of it is
such an important part of any
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:51
			Muslims life. Without it, you
can't really reach Allah because
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:54
			it's all about two things. One is
connecting yourself to Allah
		
00:00:54 --> 00:01:00
			purifying the heart, purifying the
heart, also to inter interact with
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:04
			others. So to develop our clock
with others and develop, develop
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:08
			our clock with ourselves and Allah
subhanaw taala. And nobody can
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:12
			deny that that's essentially the
core of it. But unfortunately,
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:15
			there's a lot of
misrepresentation.
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:21
			You see, if you've got a teacher
who teaches Hadith, or who teaches
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:24
			Tafseer, or to teach his
jurisprudence,
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:26
			then
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:31
			there's not as much room for abuse
within that teaching or within
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:34
			that environment of students
teacher relationship.
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:36
			But when you've got a
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:43
			teacher of somebody who's seen as
a teacher of the soul of
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:47
			spirituality, in which you have to
have a very close relationship,
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			and a lot of the time you actually
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:56
			end up in order to correct
ourselves, we end up revealing
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			things about ourselves to teach,
there has to be a very strong
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:00
			relationship, it's a proper
interaction.
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:06
			To get to get something out of it,
there has to be an interaction.
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:12
			To have a shake, you need to be
able to interact with them, just
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:15
			to go and take bait, or with
somebody great that you never see
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:19
			again, or that you just see from
afar. Well, you get a bit of
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:21
			Baraka with that. But
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:25
			you don't have that same
connection, you need to be with
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:28
			somebody that you can speak to,
and then somebody that can respond
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:31
			to you, because of that close
relationship. And because there's
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:34
			going to be a lot of love
engendered within that.
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			There's a lot of room for abuse.
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:40
			And the abuse is that
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:47
			people who are in that position,
they may take advantage of those
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:48
			people who have come to them,
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:54
			the position of being respected
and revered, and people
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:59
			coming to you confiding in you
being at your service and helping
		
00:02:59 --> 00:02:59
			you
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:03
			can sometimes get to you.
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:08
			Motives can change intentions can
change.
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:12
			And because of the abuse that has
taken place,
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:14
			within that
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:18
			sometimes the soul ends up getting
a bad name.
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:25
			Because of the problems that have
become part of it, unfortunately,
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:26
			in places,
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:31
			not just that, in order to keep
people coming.
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:33
			People then innovate
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:39
			popular practices, things that
work. Okay, let's add a bit of
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:42
			this so that people will come in,
I mean, look at the Christians,
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:46
			right. I remember reading an
article once that they're having
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:49
			these kinds of pop concerts, you
know, in churches and so on to
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:50
			attract the youth.
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:59
			So, you then try to justify the
means by the end, and thinking
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:04
			that okay, if this brings in more
people, then let us say that this
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:09
			is permissible as well. So there's
a lot of room for abuse in this as
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:12
			has happened. And over the
centuries as well. Things have
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:14
			gone wrong, people are being
criticized and Sufis are being
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:17
			criticized. And so he's been
defended. But otherwise, it's
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:21
			actually essentially just goes
down to the purity of religion.
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:24
			That's really what it is. So what
I want to do today, a lot of the
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:27
			time, I mean, if I'm to ask you
today, right, how many of you have
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:29
			heard of the soul for Sufism?
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:34
			Right. I mean, I would say, at
least, most of you, majority of
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:36
			you have heard of this over
Sufism.
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:40
			How many of you have actually
studied it in any kind of formal
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:41
			sense?
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:45
			Where you've actually covered a
textbook written by a great
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:48
			scholar, or one of the great
scholars of the past that detail
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:52
			what it's all about? What are the
prerequisites of it? What are the
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:55
			conditions for it, what are the
benefits of it? What is the
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:59
			subject matter of it, you know, as
a proper science, hardly anybody
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:03
			I mean, I didn't study it for a
very long time.
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:09
			So that's why anybody can tell you
whatever it is, especially if
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:13
			you're kind of a bit broken bit
soft, are you a bit depressed, you
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:17
			need some help with something,
maybe you've just lost your job,
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:19
			maybe you've just lost a loved
one. And then you're looking for
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:22
			that, you know, you're looking at
somebody's taking your income to
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:24
			the shake, this is great shake
this lot. This happens that
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:25
			happens.
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:29
			So because of the fact that
unfortunately, some people have
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:34
			abused this position, it's been
given a bad name. We want to set
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:39
			the record straight, we want to, I
want to cover the soul from one of
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:45
			a great scholar that I respect. He
was a Maliki scholar from Egypt's
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:49
			I've actually been visited. He's
he's actually buried behind the
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:52
			the jungle as far right as the
university is actually buried
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:58
			behind buried. Actually, no, he's
not very, yes, he is. He's very
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:02
			good. That's right. And his name
is Sheikh Ahmed, even know
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:06
			Muhammad Allah either way, but
more well known as Imam that,
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:10
			indeed, that was what he was well
known as. And this is from his al
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:14
			Qaeda, Al Bahia, which is
essentially a book on this book on
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:18
			Aqeedah. So he's written this
great text anarchy data. It's a
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:22
			poem with a commentary. And at the
end of it, he's got a section that
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:26
			talks about Sufism, so what
exactly it is, and now I want you
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:30
			to listen carefully to this and
see if any of this is
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:32
			questionable. You'll find that
there's nothing in this is
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:35
			supposed to be here to solve
anything beyond that is not the
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:36
			safe.
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:39
			So he starts off and he says that
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:45
			well, how they shouldn't I mean,
who somehow hula hoops or if you
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:47
			find it the soul of a lady who are
hired to collude,
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:53
			this is the beginning. This is his
beginning May Allah pardon him May
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:55
			Allah Most like Pong and he was
talking about himself actually,
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:59
			because he writes the poem at the
top in which is unclear on mindig
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:05
			Rehabil Adobe thermocol beha Turca
we have a victory at the router be
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:09
			such a wonderful poem, for Karen
min Vickery, Habil, Adobe
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:14
			thermocol, behind the decree or
Allah Ruby, which means you need
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:20
			to abundantly remember him but
with etickets abundantly remember
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:24
			Allah but with the with etickets.
And by this, you will ascend by
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:27
			this remembrance, you will ascend
to the highest of stations and
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:32
			positions. So he's now commenting
on that. And he says that the poet
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:35
			which is himself essentially as
he's writing his commentary, as
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:38
			the third person to this poem is
very interesting. Right? So he
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:43
			says that may Allah have mercy on
him, he starts to discuss the
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:48
			subject of the soul, which is the
life of the hearts so right off he
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:53
			explains the soul as being the
life of the heart. It's a it's a
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:55
			it's a spiritual nourishment,
basically.
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:00
			rotable who are Allah MADI fatty,
aka aidil Iman,
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:06
			he says that he brought in after
discussing all of the articles of
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:10
			faith because remember, this is a
book on Aqeedah primarily Liana
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:14
			hula you I'm gonna say it ilaha
illa bear the Mardi Fatiha. He's
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:17
			talking about the reason why he's,
he's mentioned this at the end of
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:22
			an Akita section Aqeedah book,
because after the beliefs creed is
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:24
			all about trying to recognize
Allah and know Him.
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:29
			Now basically adding this on at
the end, he's trying to say that
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:33
			this is the now the practical way
to actually now get to Allah
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:36
			subhanaw taala now that you've
learned about Allah, what you
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:39
			should believe about Allah and His
messenger and what you what you
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:41
			shouldn't believe about Allah and
His messenger, what is correct to
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:44
			believe what is necessary to be
now I want to show you the way to
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:47
			get to Allah, which is through the
practice of the soul.
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:51
			Right, the practice of Sufism, so
this is, for the first time for
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:55
			most of us, right? We're going to
do a formal study of what the soul
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:58
			is all about. So he says, 30 with
the soul, the definition of the
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:00
			soul, had the soul fear element
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:06
			is who or ailment we are sold in
Europe will be his Salah who will
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:10
			be was it will help us. He is
going to define the soul in two
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:14
			ways he is going to define the
soul as a science, then he's going
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:19
			to define the soul as a practice.
Right? This is very interesting.
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:24
			The soul for the science is the
knowledge of those principles by
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:25
			which
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:31
			by which the soundness of the
heart can be recognized, and the
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:34
			soundness of all other parts of
your body, the soundness of all of
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:39
			your other senses. By this
knowledge, you will be able to
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:45
			figure out how to make sound the
heart and how to make sound all of
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:50
			our senses, our eyes, our hearing,
our
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:54
			touching, etcetera. That's what
the CIO seeks to tell us what to
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:59
			do what is right and what is wrong
in gaining soundness of the heart
		
00:09:59 --> 00:09:59
			to get a call wound study.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			In. In practice, though, he says
why men who will loop will
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:08
			outwards, meaning more out wished
enablement he yards in terms of
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:13
			practice, it is to adopt the most
precocious way in everything that
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:14
			has been ordered.
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:18
			So everything that has been
ordered, and sometimes you may say
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:21
			that, Oh, there's this and there's
that I'm confused which one to
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:23
			take this one is more, he says
take the most precocious one.
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:29
			To adopt the most precocious
position in everything, watch the
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:33
			enablement here and to abandon
that those things which are
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:38
			forbidden. And then he says, Well
episode, we're gonna do reality
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:42
			middle mobile hat. So we know that
one of those things that we are
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:45
			obligated to do, so we must do
those. And we must do the most
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:48
			precocious one in those things,
even if there's a difference of
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:52
			opinion. And then he says, those
things which have been prohibited
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:56
			completely abandon them. And then
all of those things which are
		
00:10:56 --> 00:11:02
			permitted, MOBA, the neutral
permitted, only do those as much
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:06
			as is necessary. Only do of that
whatever is essential.
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:08
			So for example,
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:14
			you can eat as long as it's halal,
you can eat, but only eat as much
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:15
			as is essential.
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:17
			Don't eat too much.
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:22
			speaking to somebody is
permissible, but only speak to
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:26
			somebody as much as is essential.
So in everything that is generally
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:30
			seen as permitted, while Deuce do
it if it's necessary. Now, I know
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:34
			this is a very high standard,
right? Don't get put off by this.
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:37
			It is just to get us away from the
distractions that we already have
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:40
			to at least get us somewhere
closer. May Allah give us Sophia.
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:45
			So that is the definition both
from a scientific perspective, but
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:48
			from a technical perspective, and
from a practical perspective,
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:51
			where you call and he says, Look,
it's also said some people have
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:55
			also defined it as follows. Who
will do his Saluki Illa, medical
		
00:11:55 --> 00:11:56
			MOOC.
		
00:11:57 --> 00:12:01
			This is to exercise absolute
seriousness, this is to be
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:04
			serious, firmly resolute.
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:06
			In trying to
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:13
			follow the path to the King of all
kings. That's another way of
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:17
			putting it to be serious and to
say bus. That's it. I just want to
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:22
			follow the path to my Lord, the
King of all kings. Yet there's
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:25
			another you see, because for
everybody who's gotten into this,
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:28
			and who's experienced the benefits
of it, everybody's going to
		
00:12:28 --> 00:12:29
			describe it in different way.
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:34
			Because this is how they see it.
And they all correct, right, none
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:37
			of these contradict each other.
They're just different ways of
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:38
			looking at it.
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:43
			Where you kind of have don't have
a see one more or two unforeseen.
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:49
			Right. So this fourth definition
says that this is protecting your
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:55
			senses, guarding your senses, and
guarding your every breath.
		
00:12:56 --> 00:13:01
			What am I doing with? How do you
guard your breath? Breath in
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:05
			breathing is spontaneous. The only
time you actually become conscious
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:09
			of your breath is when you've got
a breathing problem. Otherwise,
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:12
			who thinks of their breath? Pray
the only time that you actually
		
00:13:12 --> 00:13:14
			think you're breathing is when
you've got a breathing problem.
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:17
			You can't breathe properly or when
you're trying not to breathe
		
00:13:17 --> 00:13:19
			because you're hiding somewhere
you don't want anybody who
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:23
			otherwise when would you think
about your bread? So the ideas
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:29
			it'd be so conscious of yourself
that Allahu Akbar that we never
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:33
			set a foot wrong Allah help us,
Allah help us, Allah help us. I
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:36
			pray to Allah does on empty words,
that he make these a reality for
		
00:13:36 --> 00:13:37
			all of us.
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:41
			Well, Marina motorcar says that
all of these have a similar
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:45
			meaning all of these definitions
have a similar meaning. Okay, well
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:46
			higher to
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:54
			what what is, what is the
objective? Because, you know, when
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:56
			you study a science, they
generally are being what is
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:57
			objective? What are your
		
00:13:58 --> 00:14:01
			What did they say that outcomes?
What did he use in this modern
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:06
			education, language? These are the
outcomes. These are your key
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:09
			stages, I get really troubled by
all of these school terms that
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:13
			they use because they seem so
foreign. Right? They weren't they
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:15
			my time when I was studying at
school, this is all new now.
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:22
			You know, it's, you're in year
six, you're in year nine, just
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:23
			tell him what age you are man.
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:27
			I get confused with these things.
So, I have a problem with them.
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:33
			Anyway, he says the subject matter
is a logical Muhammadiyah mean
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:35
			hated the whole leukemia.
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:39
			What is what what will you achieve
if you do this?
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:45
			What is the final goal right one
of those goals sorry, one of his
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:50
			higher the higher is sallahu. wasa
it will help us with Dounia while
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:55
			photos will be parallel Marathi
bifilar Aqua what the objective
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:59
			that you will gain the the result
that you will have from this is
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:00
			sound
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:04
			wholeness of the heart, and all of
your senses in the dunya because
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:07
			that's what we need in the dunya
the heart to be sound, and the
		
00:15:07 --> 00:15:12
			senses to be sound, but in the
hereafter to win to be a champion
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:16
			of the highest levels of the
Hereafter
		
00:15:18 --> 00:15:21
			to basically attain the highest
levels of the Hereafter that is
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:25
			what we will be promised, we are
promised if you do this, okay,
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:29
			what is it subject matter then
what do you have to work on? What
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:31
			is the subject matter of medicine?
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:35
			The human body I guess, right
biology,
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:38
			what is the subject matter matter
of grammar?
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:45
			Language. So, what is the subject
matter of the soul of Sufism?
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:50
			He says Allah called Mohamed El
Amin hated the Leukemia, the
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:54
			Muhammad and characteristics
Muhammad and character the sublime
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:55
			character, Rasulullah sallallahu
sallam.
		
00:15:57 --> 00:16:00
			But not just as a study of how
great the Prophet salallahu Salam
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:04
			was, look how great his
characters, that's not the subject
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:07
			matter. The subject matter is how
do we become imbibed with that
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:11
			character. So it's essentially the
human being the human body, the
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:15
			human characteristic, the human
psyche, the human behavior, that's
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:19
			the subject matter of how we can
implement that a flock of Muhammad
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:21
			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:28
			Now, there's a few terms in terms
that he clarifies because you
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:31
			know, once you get into the solf,
and you start reading the books of
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:33
			to solve and you start listening
to the scholars after so they're
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:37
			going to be talking about tariqa.
Right? Which study guide you in
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:41
			fact, if you go to Turkey today,
they don't just ask you what month
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:44
			have you or they say a DECA like
Western ego you have which order
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:48
			to solve Sufi odo. Right? So what
a study come in, then of course,
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:51
			we know the word Sharia. So what's
the difference between Polycom and
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:56
			Sharia? And then there's another
word Hachiko. Right? These are the
		
00:16:56 --> 00:17:00
			US How will he is he the saw, he
will Hachiko? He's a he's a
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:04
			purpose of reality. So Haqiqa
means reality. Sharia generally
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:08
			means sacred law. And tariqa means
a path. But he's going to describe
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:13
			how these terms are related from a
Sufi context. Right? So those who
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:17
			are listening and who've who've
been basically until now, we've
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:21
			always thought the self is a bad
thing. And Sufism is like an evil
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:24
			and it's a bitter and it's a
shipwreck and you know, all the
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:27
			all the rest of it that generally
you find online that people say
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:29
			right, people who are to me don't
understand it, they say, Oh, they
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:33
			see the bad to solve, and they say
that, I want you to open your mind
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:37
			and just bear with me until we
finish this off, then make your
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:42
			judgment. Right, because a lot of
the time, this is the exact thing
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:44
			that we're saying to non Muslims
in this country. We're saying that
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:49
			you are judging Muslims by the few
people who do crazy acts. Have you
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:52
			ever read the Quran? Have you ever
read the hadith of rasool Allah,
		
00:17:52 --> 00:17:55
			the Prophet, messenger of allah
sallallahu sallam? Have you ever
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:58
			interacted with a good Muslim?
They'll say no. So how can you
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:02
			make that judgment? We all make
that same mistake. When it comes
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:05
			to other things, we probably make
the same mistakes when it comes to
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:08
			other religions. Other means we
find like the worst case scenario,
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:12
			I remember, I read an article
about something that some Jews or
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:16
			Christians do, right, and I had
that in my mind. So that the last
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:18
			time I was actually with this
group in an interfaith program,
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:21
			and I had, you know, I had to make
a discussion, I had to discuss
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:25
			something. So I managed to cry.
They say, No, that's just like
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:28
			some extreme extreme people who do
this. Nobody in the mainstream
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:32
			believe that, or do that practice.
It happens all over the place. And
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:37
			we humans, we don't like somebody
or somebody is different than as
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:39
			soon as we hear something bad
about them, we form an opinion
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:41
			about them. This is what the
majority of people do.
		
00:18:41 --> 00:18:45
			Unfortunately, not everybody is
very scientific and reserves their
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:49
			view, right, I only learnt it
because I have to do counseling,
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:51
			and somebody comes to you, and
they tell you, the wife comes in,
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:55
			she tells you about the husband,
right. And if you've formulated an
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:57
			opinion already, you're in
trouble. Because when you take it
		
00:18:57 --> 00:19:00
			to the husband, you're already
going to be biased. And then when
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:02
			you actually listen to the
husband, and you overcome your
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:06
			bias, and you start getting biased
on the other side them. Right. And
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:09
			then you have to realize that the
only time you actually get the
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:12
			truth out is when you sit both of
them together. Otherwise, when you
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:15
			sit separately, listen to both
parties, right? Whether in an
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:18
			argument a mother and son, you
know, mother and sister brother
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:21
			and whatever, business partners,
everybody pulls their side. They
		
00:19:21 --> 00:19:24
			don't tell you that. They don't
they they exaggerate the truth of
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:27
			it. If they don't outright lie.
When you put them together, then
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:29
			they can't do that. Then you can
actually challenge each one then
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:32
			it okay. Yeah. All right. I know
what you mean. Right? It wasn't
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:37
			that bad. So you have to you just
can't don't take things out that
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:38
			people tell you because
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:42
			especially if it's about somebody
else, it's unfair for us to
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:44
			actually do that. But
unfortunately, most people do
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:45
			that.
		
00:19:47 --> 00:19:51
			So the difference he says under
the soul free man and I'm a Puerto
		
00:19:51 --> 00:19:55
			Rico. He says the soul of inaction
in a practical action that is the
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:59
			Tariqa that's essentially the 30
Commons the path to Allah. So
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:03
			Everything that you need to do
specifically to be on that path,
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:07
			and to progress on that path that
is called Talica. It's the
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:08
			practice of the self.
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:15
			But practicing on this path can't
be arbitrary. Can't be as you
		
00:20:15 --> 00:20:20
			wish, even if your so called shave
tells you to do something.
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:25
			That doesn't mean that it's that
that doesn't mean it's correct.
		
00:20:25 --> 00:20:28
			You need to do with it. Sharia is
part of the league as possible
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:34
			because Sharia is the guiding
light. So Sharia is what a machete
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:37
			Alpha He'll calm will let you
water that Annie Cherie Elmore
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:42
			Akbar and Hubby, Dane, a bit been
the sherry, then are those rulings
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:46
			and commands that sacred law by
which
		
00:20:48 --> 00:20:51
			which has basically come from the
legislator from Allah and His
		
00:20:51 --> 00:20:54
			messenger, the law that has come
from Allah and His Messenger,
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:58
			which is generally referred to as
the dean. That's the Sharia.
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:02
			So essentially, it's telling us
that tariqa is just following the
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:06
			Sharia that essentially was
telling us in it, that's what its
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:12
			results in 30 Commons just to
follow the Sharia Sharia laws,
		
00:21:13 --> 00:21:17
			then what is hockey? Reality? What
is that? For here? A Serato?
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:22
			Sharia? Those are the secrets of
the Sharia. When a teacher to
		
00:21:22 --> 00:21:25
			tariqa, and the result of being on
the path.
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:29
			Now remember, when you make an
effort in anything, don't you get
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:32
			something? If you play football
very well? Aren't you going to get
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:33
			something out of it?
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:38
			Right? You may even become so
famous that people in the pubs of
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:42
			Liverpool will start calling your
name. Right? Because you're so
		
00:21:42 --> 00:21:43
			good at football.
		
00:21:44 --> 00:21:46
			And then they'll actually start
invoking God,
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:48
			whether they say
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:56
			he came from Allah subhanaw taala.
What is that Subhanallah in
		
00:21:56 --> 00:21:59
			anything that you make an effort,
there's going to be a result that
		
00:21:59 --> 00:22:02
			comes from it, something's going
to open up to you, when you stop
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:06
			playing football very well, I'm
assuming that you will actually
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:10
			start understanding how it works.
And you'll be able to become a lot
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:13
			more controlled and better. Right?
It's a complete ignorant person
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:16
			that's speaking about football, by
the way, right? You guys, I'm sure
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:18
			many of you know much better know
what I'm talking about. And that's
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:22
			in anything. When you start
studying a language, you start
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:26
			understanding the nuances of each
word in anything, it's like that.
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:30
			So if you start diligently
following the Sharia, you will
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:35
			start seeing the fruits of it, you
will start seeing the warmth of it
		
00:22:35 --> 00:22:40
			in your heart, the blessings of it
will beautify you, and you will
		
00:22:40 --> 00:22:43
			start feeling it. That is when you
really read when that's when a
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:47
			person reaches the hot vehicle of
faith, the reality of the faith.
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:51
			Otherwise, we just we're just
trying and following. But when you
		
00:22:51 --> 00:22:55
			actually follow properly with full
sincerity, according to the other
		
00:22:55 --> 00:22:58
			that he has mentioned with
abundant Viken, then you will
		
00:22:58 --> 00:23:01
			actually start feeling the reality
of it. And that's why he says that
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:04
			the Haqiqa is essentially the
secrets that will come along the
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:09
			way of your shady Sharia, that you
will get from the Sharia, and this
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:14
			will be the fruits of your tariqa.
For here, Reuben one mirdif taslim
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:21
			Kuru besides taking back the sofa
II mean carotid taba il Berseria.
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:26
			Now, this really tells us how you
will achieve it. He says these are
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:31
			this is the knowledge and the
Gnosis, the awareness, the
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:33
			cognizance that will
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:39
			be realized by the heart of the
Saudi theme that will be realized
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:42
			by the hearts of those who are
traversing this way, those who
		
00:23:42 --> 00:23:46
			have taken up this path after
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:54
			those hearts have been cleansed
and purified of all human, all
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:59
			human nature or normal human
weakness in nature. So this path
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:04
			is essentially the way to cleanse
ourselves of the normal human
		
00:24:04 --> 00:24:04
			failings.
		
00:24:06 --> 00:24:12
			Don't be quick to judge somebody.
Right? Don't think evil of someone
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:16
			don't have hatred in the heart.
This is all the
		
00:24:17 --> 00:24:22
			dirt of the human nature that
normally we become adulterated
		
00:24:22 --> 00:24:27
			with. Once that's cleanse, there's
room for more positive things that
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:30
			will come into mind. See negative
people constantly think of
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:34
			negative things. Once the heart is
cleansed of negativity. Then in
		
00:24:34 --> 00:24:39
			sha Allah, a lot of positivity, a
lot of spirituality, a lot of love
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:42
			and warmth for Allah subhanho wa
Taala will come about and then
		
00:24:43 --> 00:24:47
			this is where he basically hits
the nail on the head. Now that
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:50
			he's told us that Okay, so now we
have an idea that we want to
		
00:24:50 --> 00:24:53
			follow this path. We want to get a
Hachiko. We want to follow the
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:56
			Sharia. But what is the fastest
way to do this? What are shader
		
00:24:58 --> 00:24:58
			and Quran
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:05
			This offer will kalbi, there is
nothing more effective in
		
00:25:07 --> 00:25:12
			cleansing the hearts mean Kathy
Vickery La ilaha illa, Allah,
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:18
			there is nothing that is more
effective in cleansing the hearts
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:23
			than the abundant remembrance of
la ilaha illa Allah but with the
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:26
			other being, you can't just say la
la, la la la la, but with the
		
00:25:26 --> 00:25:30
			other with the etiquette. ality of
the Cara, Lulu here are the Allahu
		
00:25:30 --> 00:25:33
			Taala and home, which have been
mentioned by the people of Allah,
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:35
			those who have actually
experienced that they can tell you
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:38
			the best way to do this. Why do
you have mentors?
		
00:25:39 --> 00:25:44
			You want you know, you want to go
into a particular vocation, right?
		
00:25:44 --> 00:25:49
			You want to go into sciences, you
want to go into medicine or
		
00:25:49 --> 00:25:52
			whatever, generally, you find a
mentor somebody who's done it been
		
00:25:52 --> 00:25:54
			there, done that, right? They'll
tell you Look, no, don't do it
		
00:25:54 --> 00:25:57
			that way, do this way. I know that
it says that in the books. But
		
00:25:57 --> 00:26:01
			this is this is actually more
effective. You know, for you, I
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:04
			think you should do this one. So
you basically go to somebody
		
00:26:04 --> 00:26:08
			experienced. That's the whole
point of this. But unfortunately,
		
00:26:08 --> 00:26:11
			there's just so much abuse out
there, right? That you just don't
		
00:26:11 --> 00:26:13
			know who to trust sometimes.
		
00:26:14 --> 00:26:19
			And to be honest, I It's probably
you know, when you when you hear
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:22
			the you know, you when you hear
what the characteristics of a
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:26
			mentor is supposed to be, you're
gonna think that there's nobody
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:29
			like that available. I mean, it's
like prophets that you need
		
00:26:29 --> 00:26:33
			somebody. So then he says, Well,
look, you just take the best
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:37
			person you can find even if he's
not perfect, because we need this.
		
00:26:37 --> 00:26:41
			That's what he's saying. But what
he says basically is that, if you
		
00:26:41 --> 00:26:44
			do the Dhikr of Allah ilaha
illallah, with the adab with the
		
00:26:44 --> 00:26:46
			etiquette that the people of Allah
have mentioned, may Allah have
		
00:26:46 --> 00:26:49
			mercy on them, may Allah be
pleased with them, then that will
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:53
			be the most the most effective
means for you to, to, to to
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:58
			cleanse your heart, while metta
Tara Kasady colada, oh ACARA bar
		
00:26:58 --> 00:27:00
			with ID Hill Rasulillah, Missouri.
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:07
			Whenever he says, The seeker the
aspirant the moods, right, the one
		
00:27:07 --> 00:27:12
			who's on the path, right? Whenever
he abandons the adverb, the
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:14
			etiquette or even a majority of
the adverb, if he abandons him,
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:19
			then attaining this objective is
going to become very distant from
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:21
			him, is going to become far
fetched from him.
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:29
			So the most important thing is to
have the ad and the etiquettes to
		
00:27:29 --> 00:27:30
			get to Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:27:32 --> 00:27:36
			Now, the next section basically
discusses
		
00:27:38 --> 00:27:39
			the adverb of the
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:45
			right. And what's interesting is
that it tells you the other that
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:49
			are the preliminary other, the
prerequisites, these are the other
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:51
			than the etiquette that you have
to follow before you even sit to
		
00:27:51 --> 00:27:52
			do vicar.
		
00:27:53 --> 00:27:57
			And he mentioned several of them,
that Coppelia, then he talks about
		
00:27:57 --> 00:28:01
			the adab that you need to have
when you're doing vicar, and then
		
00:28:01 --> 00:28:02
			the third level.
		
00:28:03 --> 00:28:08
			Or the other idea that even after
you finish the vicar, how do you
		
00:28:08 --> 00:28:12
			actually make sure you take the
greatest benefit from it? How do
		
00:28:12 --> 00:28:17
			you essentially rinse out every
part of it and not lose any of it?
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:19
			Because when when you do take care
of Allah, there's a lot of
		
00:28:19 --> 00:28:22
			movement that's taken place, which
you can't see, how can you
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:25
			actually benefit from that entire
environment and take the most
		
00:28:25 --> 00:28:26
			benefit from it?
		
00:28:29 --> 00:28:31
			So he's got other for that as
well.
		
00:28:33 --> 00:28:39
			So we stop here. And we'll, we'll
do a maraca. But can you see so
		
00:28:39 --> 00:28:41
			far? Can you see anything
questionable in any of this? I
		
00:28:41 --> 00:28:45
			mean, it seems to be quite
straightforward. But as I told
		
00:28:45 --> 00:28:50
			you, in the beginning, that the
position is such a position,
		
00:28:51 --> 00:28:54
			unlike teaching Hadith, or Quran
or tafsir, or whatever, right,
		
00:28:54 --> 00:28:55
			that
		
00:28:57 --> 00:28:58
			it can be abused.
		
00:28:59 --> 00:29:04
			It can, in fact, it can become
cultish because of very strong
		
00:29:04 --> 00:29:06
			links that you will build and then
sometimes it can almost seem
		
00:29:06 --> 00:29:07
			cultish.
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:13
			And then if if the sheikh says if
the Sheikh is imbalanced to the
		
00:29:13 --> 00:29:17
			movie, it is unbalanced, what they
may reveal or they may tell others
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:20
			about it, or they may convey maybe
actually misunderstanding,
		
00:29:20 --> 00:29:24
			misrepresent, there's just so much
room here problems. That's why,
		
00:29:25 --> 00:29:28
			unfortunately, many people, a lot
of people have actually just
		
00:29:28 --> 00:29:30
			written it off as something which
is alien to Islam, and it's not.
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:35
			And that's why we've got so much.
I believe that that is one of the
		
00:29:35 --> 00:29:38
			reasons that we've got so much
chaos out there in terms of
		
00:29:39 --> 00:29:44
			people, devoid of faith, people
losing their faith. Because when
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:49
			everybody's looking for delille
for everything, right, and delille
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:52
			and proof isn't easy to come by
for every combine for everybody.
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:55
			Not everybody is a scholar that
they can go and check things up.
		
00:29:56 --> 00:29:59
			And you know, look into the large
tomes and books. So then people
		
00:29:59 --> 00:30:00
			just
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:03
			they're like, hey, you know, and
then people just give up doing
		
00:30:03 --> 00:30:06
			things. Otherwise the people of
the past pretty much I mean, they
		
00:30:06 --> 00:30:09
			say until the beginning of the
19th century, majority of the
		
00:30:09 --> 00:30:14
			countries in the world had had to
solve the majority. I mean, that's
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:17
			a survey that's done, that
everybody has some level of the
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:19
			Silverdome and of course you had
the crops rounds, and then the
		
00:30:19 --> 00:30:22
			exotic ones, the majority ones in
there as well. But pretty much
		
00:30:22 --> 00:30:23
			everybody was into it.
		
00:30:24 --> 00:30:27
			It's from the beginning of 19th
century, right that we've had so
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:31
			many problems we just living in a
bad time. For some reason Allah
		
00:30:31 --> 00:30:33
			has brought us here so we ask
Allah for helping this time in sha
		
00:30:33 --> 00:30:34
