Oh dear listeners, today we go back to our coverage of the Ignore
I thought it was heckum
with the ECMO shim of shaken GUI, so, in this next section which is
100, which is number 235 of the HECM collection, if not Otto Allah
says in nama Urgell other Isla ad him kala takuna Serkin and La him
in general other either ad him Kala, hakuna Serkin and La him, or
other in use Aja and Cooley che in hatherleigh Yasha Holika and who
che
are the usury Joker and coalition
hatherleigh Yasha Harada and who che amazing, amazing profound
wisdom here. If not auto Illa Rahim Allah says he only made
affliction come at the hands of people.
So that you do not repose in them.
He only made affliction come at the hands of people so that you do
not repose in them. He wanted to drive you out of everything so
that nothing would divert you from him.
He is saying In summary, that you see that sometimes difficulties
come to you, trouble comes to you, problems come to you. In fact,
some of the biggest problems that we deal with come to us from other
people, not just the sickness, which comes directly or some other
kinds of loss, but sometimes it's somebody's aggression against you,
somebody speaking bad against you, somebody slandering you, somebody
cheating, you swindling you, blaming you, there's so many
things, you see that they come and sometimes it comes from those who
are closest to us, sometimes even from family members. So this is
Allah subhanaw taala. I mean, even though I thought Allah is telling
us that if you want to understand why that happens, because
sometimes you get bewildered, I trusted you so much.
He was the most trustworthy person, a trustworthy person to
me. I would never expect my brother to do this. My business
partner I've been working in for 20 years. But no, most of our
afflictions and tests come from other people. And he says here, he
only made these afflictions, come at the hands of people, so that
you will never get comfortable with them. You will never find
repose in them. You will never be consoled by them, you will never
feel secure with them. Because Allah wants you to feel secure
with him. He wants to realize that people are weak, you can have
problems from him, so that you will never begin to love them so
much that you will make you
negligent of Allah. Then he says he wanted you to he wanted to
drive you away from everything.
And people are generally who we would inclined towards most, aside
from wealth and everything, it would be people generally. And
I'll explain as we go along, he wanted to drive you away from
everything so that nothing, nothing, even those closest to you
could divert you from him.
These are all signs of Allah, and those who can understand this,
they suddenly start seeing everything for what it is, and
then they don't get upset, because they realize that I don't
understand why they bothering me. I don't understand how they could
say this about me. I don't know why they're spreading rumors about
me. Now, you know, maybe Allah subhanaw taala if this is part of
his wisdom, maybe Allah subhanaw taala just wants you to turn to
Him and realize that it doesn't matter what they think. You're not
supposed to find security with them. You're supposed to find
security with Allah.
So
the idea of this, and I'm going to comment on it according to
a commentary. And I want you to understand from here
that whenever we have troubles in our life, and you're trying to do
good because a lot of people will tell you that I never used to be
practicing before and my life was easy. Suddenly, I stopped
practicing. And this goes wrong. That goes wrong. This person turns
against me. My boss turns against me. This happens in that
happens, then, if you're on the right track. And if you're trying
your best, then realize that there's a wisdom in there from
Allah, there's a wisdom in everything. But in this case, it's
very positive for you, it's going to be tough. But this is just
Allah forcing you to realize that you can't trust everybody that you
can't hope for the best from everybody all the time. This is
not to say you must feel bad about them. This is just that you must
look for goodness and security with Allah only. But it doesn't
mean that you denigrate people either. It doesn't mean that you
look down upon people, it's just that you don't put your trust in
anything except Allah or through Allah. That's the main reason. So
let us
the idea here is that the rule the spirit of the human being, it,
find it very easy to incline and become comfortable with the dunya
with this lonely Earth, and with all the difficult with all the
ease, and the pleasures that you find in it.
Now, if that happens, then it becomes very difficult for them to
focus on the afterlife, to focus on spirituality, to focus on
developing the inside, and developing their real selves, the
real insomnia.
So when people begin to love, even
their closest ones too much.
In the absence of Allah's love, that's very important, because
Allah wants you to love them for his sake, and that's fine. But
when you begin to love them so much,
and you forget Allah subhanaw taala whether that be your
companions, your partners, your spouses, your children, your
family, then it is from Allah has hikma that if he wants good for
you, sometimes you will, then he will make you realize that
whenever evil happens from any of these people, then it's to take
you away from them, and to focus and get you comfortable with Allah
subhanaw taala to great to create harmony, to create,
to create
a sense of comfort with Allah subhanaw taala
when that happens, then a person is going to start understanding
that I must never hope for good to come from people, I must always
hope from Allah subhanaw taala then if good comes from people
hamdulillah that's not a problem.
When a person realizes that and puts their full trust in Allah,
and totally breaks away and severs their trust from people, then that
means that they've got somewhere with Allah subhanaw taala now
they're on a path. Now they're getting somewhere.
Because the point is that if you get a lot of honor from people,
and people show you a lot of honor, and you're not really doing
well, then it's just a ploy from the shaytaan that makes you feel
so comfortable with that. You feel you're very comfortable and secure
and good. And you never think about Allah subhanaw taala This is
the amazing ways of Allah subhanho wa Taala in this life, right?
Allah wants to put his stamp everywhere. And some people
recognize it. Other people do not recognize it. So that's why when
it comes to the Olia the friends of Allah, those who are trying
their best, then whenever difficulties become more
intensified.
That just indicates to them that Allah subhanaw taala has something
even greater in store for me, I'm going to make somewhere here I'm
going to focus my I'm going to I'm going to focus my entire attention
to Allah subhanaw taala so that's why they completely stopped their
focus on people and they focus turns to Allah subhanaw taala
they're still living with people, they're still interacting with
people, assisting people helping people, talking to people. It's
not that they go in a cave or something, but their focus in
terms of their heart as to who's going to give them something is
only Allah subhana wa Tada.
That's why the commentary says Oradell Hakuna Allah and US Aja
and Cooley, Shaman hodell Ireland hasta la Tarkin Illa che that you
never become inclined to anything Allah wants you to show. Allah
wants to show you that you cannot trust anything to be there for you
all the time. That's why if not after eluxury He says in his
laptop a full minute LM an ollie Allah He to other Hawkmoon Phoebe
Daya team and you saw little holiday him li Yatta Taha ruminal
bacteria were tech Molefi him Al Messiah. What kala you sir Keanu
Hodel Huckabee T mad Oh yummy. Look at him based Dennard.
Woman other UK forgot Takaka mean Ricky ehsani is that whenever you
have difficulties, especially in the beginning, you will suffer
difficulties, especially when you try to become more righteous. You
will suffer difficulty so anyone wants to become closer to Allah
especially during these times and you start suffering difficulties.
Remember those difficulties are good for you.
They're literally just to help us turn our attention away from the
temporary to the Eveleigh.
Last thing, and that's why this is the way pinata, Allah says he says
that if anybody harms you, then what he's done is that he's
actually freed you from his slavery Subhanallah, anybody who
harms you not to say you go around harming people to try to be God's
army, right? Because you would not be God's army there. So the idea
here is that anybody who harms you, they've actually freed you
from the slavery of their excellent behavior to you. Because
he says that woman acts in an earache socket is Taraka, would
you do Mt. Nanny, anybody who does a good favor to you, then he
basically makes you his the slave of his favor.
What that means, basically, is that human beings are the slaves
of favors. When somebody does something good to you, generally,
most people, most decent, people will feel obliged, will feel like
okay, they're doing good for me, I need to reciprocate. And we should
do, we should reciprocate. There's nothing, no harm in that. But the
idea is that that's more dangerous. Apparently, for those
who really understand that's actually more dangerous than those
who, then those people who basically do something bad to you,
because those people do something bad to you. They're not making you
their slaves. They're forcing you to turn to Allah, just in that
sense, in that sense. That means that doesn't mean that you don't
do good to people, and that you act bad to people. That's why then
he says when he died, he Karkala sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, Min
us in a coma rufen for curfew, who failed him tuck the roofer, the
ruler, who, anybody who does any good thing to you, anybody who
deals with you good in a nice way, then
reciprocate, do a good thing back because then you've paid off the
axon, that means you don't have a favor remaining upon you. If
you're not able to give them anything back in kind, then at
least make the offer them so at least you've repaid them.
And all of this is just to take the heart away from becoming too
obliged to people, rather than Allah subhanaw taala. Of course,
you can still be obliged to people, but the main focus is that
you're obliged to Allah subhanaw taala.
Some of the Obama said it this way, now you have to put this in
perspective, he said that you should run away from the best of
people more than you can run away from the worst of people. Now put
that in perspective, right. And the point is that he says because
the best of them will basic, you basically effect your heart
because of the good they'll do to you, and you'll become obliged to
them. Whereas the worst of them if they do anything to you, they'll
physically harm you. They won't harm you in your heart they're
physically harm you the harm we don't be on your body, they may
beat you up. Right They may aggress against you in that sense.
And he says that, that you are afflicted in your body is actually
much better and lighter for you then you're afflicted in your
heart. Remember it's very perspective specific perspective
is talking about here.
And what I do when Tassilo be ill Allah Hi Roman Habib in Yokosuka
and Allah,
it is better, that you have an enemy who gets you closer and join
to Allah and associated with Allah than having a friend that actually
cuts you away from Allah subhanaw taala because he makes you feel so
comfortable. And this is Subhanallah I mean, this is you
have to understand this is in one perspective, the friend is not
doing you any wrong. But it's just the way we process that
information and the interaction that we need to be careful. That's
all it is. Apparently, what the owner must say is that whenever
Allah wants to make you an allele of Allah and you start practicing
more, then Allah this is a sunnah of the holy basically that it
happens to them that Allah will give him difficulty that a source
of gaining greatness to Allah. So amazing system of Allah in the
world, but at least it makes sense. Because the thing that
people can't deal with difficulties. Now if this is the
philosophy, that dealing with difficulties see it as a way to
get you closer to Allah hamdulillah we're better than
anything that gets you close to Allah subhanaw taala anyway,
that's why we learn from a verse in the Quran with regards to the
Sahaba as well. Allah subhanho wa Taala says in Surah Baqarah was
Zulu. Zulu hedaya kula Rasulullah. Zina Amanu. Right, they were
shaken. They were tremors overtook them, like they were really
tested. Just look at the whole life of the makin life, the Medina
and life until the messenger sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
Or until the messenger and the people who believe with him, they
asked, When is the assistance of Allah coming? Allah in natural
light he Corrib know that the assistance of Allah is very close
the help of ALLAH is very near.
And there's numerous other ayah that tell us this reinforce that
same idea. unshakable Hassan a shell that he wants, what are the
Allah who said the attorney in Santa Margarita? There's one guy
who
he afflicted me with some harm he harmed me somehow once for
I felt really bad in my heart about it like, why is he doing
this? What's going on for him? So I fell asleep.
And I saw somebody saying to me, meaning I heard somebody saying to
me in my dream, that
it's from the position of being acidic, close to Allah subhanaw
taala that they could have a lot of enemies. And then, but the sign
is that you have a lot of enemies but it doesn't bother you anymore.
Subhanallah
if you look at our prophets, Allah, Allah is the best of
examples, the most closest to Allah, the best of Allah's
creation. You will see that the struggles that they went through
right from the beginning, from the Quraysh.
After his prophecy after he became the Prophet, he had to stay with
them for 13 years, the Macan period, the difficulties, huge
difficulties.
And after that, he went to Madina Munawwara. And while that was,
maybe he had his own place, and everything, and his own people,
but constant attacks, constant attacks, there was no rest during
the muddiman period as well. There was no rest, you always had to be
on your feet. He's either teaching, he's either defending
his other fighting, he's either responding, they were traitors
within, there were the munafo him the hypocrites. They were the
other tribes down there of the hood, right? There was constant
tensions with those people with all the other people with the
enemies coming from outside to attack, until eventually he went
to Allah subhana wa Tada in a state where he had a huge
temperature, even at the end.
Likewise, the US hub, the Sahaba, after him, same thing, they had so
much difficulty afterwards. In fact, you could say that so many
of them, like a huge amount of the Sahaba were killed either in
battle or some other way. If you take it. If you look at it,
Siddiqa the Allahu Anhu they say that he was poisoned, right, he
did eventually have some kind of poisoning because because of a
poison that was administered before Farrokh was killed. Omar
Farooq Radi Allahu Anhu he was martyred in prayer or semana de
Allahu Anhu. He was also murdered by by the by the rebels. Earlier
the Allahu Anhu he was stuck with a knife that had point that was a
poison knife until he passed away, Hassan or the Allahu Anhu was also
poisoned. Then Hussein with the Allahu Anhu he was killed. His
head was taken off, they played around they mocked his they messed
around with his head in Sham. Then after that he was finally buried
in Egypt. Right? So Subhanallah Can you imagine what these people
had to go through? Then after that, if you look at the other
great Olia Allah like Junaid, Al Baghdadi Rahim Allah, it wasn't
easy for them. And I'm gonna tell you his story. It wasn't easy for
them either. Until Allah subhanaw taala took them through that
trial, and then after that made it easy for them. So it doesn't mean
that you have to be killed at the end of it. There's a lot of them
which had difficulties and then Allah subhanaw taala opened the
doors of his mercy opened the doors of his gifts. And after that
he was completely fine. But that the beginning of it the time that
most people will suffer when they try to become an early Allah will
be at the beginning. Otherwise, later Allah it's a trial at the
beginning. And then assistance of ALLAH SubhanA wa, that's the test
phase. Then comes the goodness. And then after that, it's just
conquest after conquest. And I don't mean Congress, like physical
conquest is just that after that, you're winning everything, then
you got no problem.
But there's a difficulty until until that period. So for example,
let me give you the story of from the Abbas Abbas it called we've
got motiva kill Billa who's the aversive Khalif and it's in his
time when you had Junaid Al Baghdadi, one of one of the
greatest of our Olia who pretty much everybody's probably heard
of. So there was some jurist at the time who had some who couldn't
understand some of the things he said. So what they did was they
went they came to the Hadith, whatever kill villa, and they said
that Junaid and his entire group and he had like over 200 very
dedicated followers and lots of other people he had influenced. So
they basically said that he's become a heretic. He's got ideas
that are against the faith heterodox idea. He's no longer
Orthodox, Sunni, Sunni Muslim. So, the Khalifa was name was motiva
kill Billa. He actually liked genital Baghdadi, he had a lot of
love for him. But you have to basically
whatever the system is, you have to follow the follows the policy
and the protocol. So
first, he got angry on me says your enemies of Allah, you just
want to
You create a lot of problem for these Olia of Allah, because you
don't understand them, you just want to cause problem with them.
And you just want to get rid of them one by one, just the way you
got rid of, and he mentioned some of the earlier before who had been
killed, right? Under certain cases, and so on. Every day,
you're coming up with some different complain about something
he said or something he's doing this,
you have to remember that you're not going to be able to effect
this genetical Baghdadi, until you're able to provide sufficient
evidence to basically prove that he is guilty of heresy, that he's
guilty of things against the faith. So what I want you to do is
get all of your juries together, get all of your scholars together,
and then we're going to have a session. And if you are able to
overcome him in the evidence and prove that he's wrong, and people
can witness the fact that you are definitely, you've definitely
proved your point, then I will kill him, I will have him
finished. But if it's not the case, and he, he proves you wrong,
then Wallahi I'm going to strike all of you. And I'm going to
finish you all off until not a single one of you remains. Now in
those days. That's the way they dealt with things, right? You take
somebody's head off in those days. That's the way our historical
scene has been. So they said okay, fine. So they got together, far
and wide, the scholars from Sham, from Yemen, from Iraq, and from
the other cities.
When all of these people when all of these jurists, you can imagine
what kind of a session this must have been some of the scholars
from all of the different places around the Muslim world, so they
brought them all together. And meaning all anybody who was known
to be a good jurists, some way or the other they brought them all
over whether they all agreed with it or not, Allah knows best but
they were all brought in. So when they all gathered together, the
Khalifa sent for Junaid Al Baghdadi Rahim Allah subhana wa
Rahim Allah He He came, He approached them with he approached
the palace with his students.
Junaid Baghdadi Rahim Allah He entered himself and his left he
left his
he left all of his followers behind outside because he wanted
to fulfill the the request of the Khalifa. So he came and he's
basically greeted the Khalifa as you would greet them. And then
after that he sat down. So one of the jurors stood up to ask him
a question about something. So the call the the judge because
remember, this was going to be a session where the judge is going
to be there. So now the judge got up. His name was Ali IGNOU. OB
Thor, Ali, the son of Abu Thor, that's the judges name.
So
he took he took the matter under his control and he said that
you're going to ask Junaid right? You're going to ask him questions.
So they said yes. So he said to him, Okay, fine.
Is anybody among you who's got a better understanding of the deen
than you have? They said no, they were honest. They said no, he's
got a better because he was a big scholar as well. He's got a better
understanding. So he said, That's really strange, how strange that
is.
He is much more knowledgeable than you with regards to your science.
And he also has other understandings of other
scientists, the science of the inner self, and spirituality,
which you have a problem with, meaning you don't recognize and
you don't know that science. So how are you going to ask a man?
Right? Who you don't even understand what what what he will
tell you? Because he knows another science which you do not know.
So they were taken aback they were surprised that like, Yeah, that's
right. So they became silent for a while. And then they said, Okay,
what shall we do then? Your call will Muslimeen right? Oh, Judge of
the Mercy mean what should we do them because we need to resolve
this case.
Tell us whatever you want. And we'll do that. Because obviously
we have to listen to you.
So called he turns away from them, he gets close to the Khalifa. And
he says to him that you know what, leave Junaid
go and send somebody outside to his followers, his students
meaning send the guy who have your sword you know, the the guy who
basically takes people's head off. Go send him the Punisher send him
outside. His name was Walid ignore, ignore Obeah the
executioner send your execution outside to his entourage to his
students. And he should announce among them that may your como Isla
safe who's going to get up and confront the sword. Right who's
willing to die basically
For the sheikh for for the cause,
the first person that stands up from among them,
he is the person we're going to ask. He's the person we're going
to bring in, and we're going to question him. So what's the what's
the strategy here? So the Khalifa says, your hammock Hola, Lima,
duck.
Lima Derek. May Allah have mercy on you. What are you doing? What's
the strategy here? He's asking the coffee like, what are you doing?
What's, what's your purpose here? Tomorrow, we're all comb. Well,
I'm Todd Honda convergent, you're gonna get people really
frightened. And there's going to be no evidence. I mean, why why
don't you let Junaid speak while you're getting somebody to speak
from outside from one of his students? Lay 130 That's not
permitted for us that's not going to bring about fairness and
justice. So Kathy says, No, yeah, I mean,
you know, the Sufis, these people of spirituality, they love to give
others preference on themselves. They love to put other people
forward for something good, or they love to put themselves
forward for a sacrifice more than others. So go ahead, let your
executioner go out and make an announcement, that who wants to
stand up, basically, to face the sword. Whoever stands up first,
then you must know that he is going to be the most ignorant one
among them. This is really interesting. Whoever stands up
first from his students, he's going to be the most ignorant one
among them. But he's also going to be the most sincere one to Allah
subhanaw taala. Think about it from all of the people that don't
want to say I'm willing to do this, right. He's probably the
most ignorant, but he is also the most truthful. So he will stand up
so that he can give preference to his people so that they can live
longer.
Now, when the most ignorant one among his people, right among his
students come to us, the fuqaha, the jurists, the scholars, they're
going to debate with him in whatever they asked him. And you
have to remember these scholars, they're not going to overcome him,
they're not going to overcome him, then we're going to be able to
overcome him.
And he may not overcome them either. But they're definitely not
going to overcome him, and he's not going to overcome them. So
that's how we're going to be able to create harmony, and we're going
to be able to bring about some kind of agreement and a settlement
here. You know, when he said that, the most ignorant among them, he
doesn't mean the most ignorant like who doesn't know anything,
the most ignorant from all the people, all of his students, they
were all very well educated mashallah very connected to Allah,
but the most ignorant the one who's willing to go first. So
basically, the coffee then tells the Emir meaning the Khalifa, he
said because this is a major catastrophe we have this is a very
very bad predicament. Very dangerous situation wherein, right
we don't know how we're going to get out of this because there's
either going to be because what you said is that find the WHO
inputted alginate NASA here to fulfill Islam, because if Junaid
gets killed today, right they hit somehow prove it and he gets
killed then this is going to be a huge mark against Islam this is
going to because you're losing one of your most religious righteous
Willie of Allah. And for inequitable EMA and if he asked me
if I know quotable even if he asked Serena, right, if I know
goodwill, even if you were in Cotulla oedema, will fuqaha and if
you have to kill all of these, all of these scholars, then that's a
huge masiva that's another massive catastrophe How can you kill all
the scholars and that's something you've already said you're going
to do so you're gonna have to do one of those things because
remember, he said that first that first call came to him that either
you're gonna get killed or he's gonna get killed.
So then Amin said Leila Hidaka stopped now that Amir is very
happy now the Khalifa is very happy that Masha you got it like
you found a way to sort this issue out otherwise there is going to be
a big issue. You either kill the main, the main spiritual scholar
or you kill all the other scholars Subhanallah we need to find a way
out of this. He told he told the execution Okay, go ahead, go
outside and ask, make that announcement. So when he goes
outside while he's got his sword out, while he's got his sword with
him, he stands up in front of all of the students. There's a 270 of
the students there 270 They're all sitting down, heads lower down,
probably in the vicar of Allah making dua right there doing that.
So suddenly he announces a fee coming back home in a safe, who
among you is going to stand up and confront the sword. So, so
immediately, there's one man who stood up immediately one of them
stood up, and his name was Abu Hassan annuity. Abril has an
annuity he stood up.
So when he said to him
what he'd said, I've not seen a bird fly so quickly, like suddenly
take off so quickly. That's how he was. He just literally just jumped
up in front of me. And I was so surprised by how fast
He got up. So I said to him, oh person he didn't know his name,
said oh person. I live Clem account. Do you know what you're
getting up? Do you know why you're getting up? And why you're
standing up? He said Yes.
Didn't you? He said to him. Yes, didn't you? Didn't you say that?
Which one among you is going to stand up for the sword? I know
exactly why I'm getting up. So I said to him, yes. So why did you
stand up then?
He said, Because I need to enter dunya seasonal movement, I know
that the dunya is a prisoner for the believer. So I want to go to
the abode of happiness quickly. And I want to give more of a
chance to my companions so that they can stay longer in this
world, even if that's for one more moment.
And
maybe, if I'm to be killed, then maybe all of this evil that has
begun, this whole evil court that has begun, maybe this will be this
will subside, and maybe it will be diffused, just because of me and
my sacrifice. So everybody will be saved. And so he said, for Egypt
to mean Fossati he, you know, so eloquent. So sure, I was totally
taken aback and astonished. So I said, Okay, fine. Go inside, come
with me. And you're going to respond to the judge and all of
his questions.
Now, that's when it says that his face his color of His face
changed. And
his he started tearing, he started crying. So his tears started. He
started shedding tears, says our Daniele kabhi. He said I was just
going to be killed. You're telling me that I'm going to have to
respond to the Cosby that's even more tough for him. It seems
Subhanallah golden and the Ark is called you Yes. Cada for Hakan
Alia ejabberd. To if the COVID the National Academy is called me the
chief judge, then I'm going to have to respond to him, but the
whole to Oahu Maui. So I went in and he comes in with me. And I
told the I told the the Khalifa and the Kobe I mentioned the whole
story to them. And they they were both taken aback by the readiness
of this person. So now the Kobe started to ask him a very
complicated question. And he said to him the following question, he
says, Who are you minions? Who are you? walima Hollett Why were you
created and wama era de la Hui alkek. And what does What did
Allah intend by your creation? So who are you? Why were you created?
And what is Allah intended by your creation? Was a in a horrible
comic? And where is your Lord? From you? Where is your Lord,
like, with perspective to you? Where is your Lord?
So immediately remember, he's a bit scared for us. But now
immediately he says, Woman and the lady does Ellone Who are you to
ask me? Who are you to ask me these questions? He says on a
Carville Co dot. I am the Chief Justice. Literally. I'm the judge
of all judges. That's what it means God will call that and the
Judge of all judges. So he said to him, even Laura Barbara you look
whether Buddha see work, and the Cadell Co dot Hava Yom will
firstly we'll cover when Nan sukoshi rue de Haan for ain't
enough, ha de su we saw a lady called Allah Who fee her one who
failed coffee soon saw a common fish summer wa T woman fill out
the Ilam and sha Allah. And look at this. As soon as the person
calls himself as soon as the judge called himself, the Judge of all
judges. This guy just changed. He said, Oh, so that means there is
no Lord but you there is nobody worthy of worship except you. You
are the Judge of all judges. And this is the day of judgment.
Basically, this is the day of judgment. And the people have all
been gathered already. Right? Can you see where he's going with this
is like saying, Oh, so you're calling yourself Allah. And this
is the Day of Judgment now. And he says, Oh, that means all of this
has happened. Everybody has been gathered. But where is that blow
of the trumpet? Where's the blast of the trumpet of Allah subhanaw
taala speaks about in the Quran that the Trumpet will be blown and
people will will basically soon right they'll they'll faint.
Everybody on the earth except those who Allah wishes. I never
heard that. Where's that gone? If this is the day of judgment and
you're the God
and I mean man cyca UNIMIN sha Allah Ana de la Masha enough Am I
have those works also fainted? Or am I of those who Allah exempted
from that as Allah mentioned in the Quran, come and ask me what's
going on here?
For Mojito call these a man and this car they just dumbstruck he
didn't know what to say for a while. And then he said, Yeah,
haha, uh, Gerald domini Illa. Hon, are you trying to make me look God
like, do you think that I'm the god?
My Allah. He said, No, my Allah. Of course not. Allah is refuge me
that I make you the God but Anita hills, but Anita Allah, actually,
you're the one who made yourself out to be the god. Hey to
Decimator because it covered when you call yourself that judge of
all judges. While there is a cardinal codon, it will call the
lady Yakety wala Ugadi the only judge of the Judge of all judges
is only the one who
judges and nobody can judge against him.
A docket article USMA like, do you have no other names you can use?
Can you believe this is like, Don't you have any other names?
You can use a mark Africa called Al Muslimeen or huddle. fuqaha
Couldn't you have wouldn't it be sufficient for you to call
yourself the judge of the Muslims, or one of the jurists? I don't
mean a by the law, or just one of the servants of Allah had that as
a mater because he will call that you know, such that you actually
calling yourself the Judge of all judges in the stack Berta and Taku
Anna Ali Abdullah before, okay, if you're too big, to call yourself
your real name, Ally ignore or be thrown, then
firm.
So couldn't you just call yourself God you have the Muslims and so
on. He kept he kept at him saying all of these things until this
poor call, he began to cry.
This was the weakest of them, this was the jaw Hill from among that
group. Can you imagine it?
So much so that
he nearly fainted. Actually, he did fainted. And the Khalifa began
to cry.
Junaid began to cry.
So finally, he Junaid he took control of the situation and he
said to his student oxen Mineta, because we'll call the like, take
it easy, don't tell him off that much pocket Cataldo you've killed
him. Look at this. You made him faint, Holy Spirit letting go now.
Now when the COVID came back to consciousness, I literally
fainted. And these are people of mashallah these these were not
jokers. I mean, these people were genuine, serious people and
discover the was a sincere person who tried to defuse the situation
anyway. So when the comedy came back to consciousness as Yeah, but
has an A Gibney and Maserati please just give me your answer to
the questions that I asked you. Who are you? Why, you know, what
does Allah want from you and so on. What I know to be a lie when I
make Toba, I will not call myself AudioCodes out anymore, I make
Toba, I repent. Just give me the answer. So the student tells him
Okay, let's go to my salah tech, just just say your say your
questions again. For me in a seat, I forgotten your answers. He was
so preserved by the Cadell CO that statement that he'd even forgotten
the questions. So he responded with the questions. So firstly,
this students will have an annuity, he first looks to his
right.
And he says
to Joe, who will you respond?
And who is looking at? And then he said, has to be Allah? And then
after that he did the same thing to his left. He said, Are you
going to respond? And has to be Allah? And then he looked
to the front? And he says, Are you going to respond? And then he
said, Alhamdulillah
there's nobody around him. Right? So he's not talking to anybody in
particular, based on right, left and in front. And then after that,
he raised his hand his head to the to the clavien. He said, When you
may Allah have mercy on you, when you ask who are you? Well, I am
the servant of Allah. Because Allah says, In coolamon FISMA, WA
t what are the IL T Rukmani Abda. Everything. There's nothing
basically on in the heavens of the Earth, except that it will come to
the Most Merciful One as in servitude. So I am that I am a
servant of Allah. And when you say that, why were you created? Then
Allah subhana wa Tada was a treasure who was unknown. When
there was no creation, he was a treasure, waiting to be known. So
he created me so that I could recognize him so that he could be
recognized because Allah says, well, Mahalo tiljander will insert
OLALIA balloon, I've only created the human genes, so that they
could worship Him. Ie he says, so that they could recognize him,
they could know him, they could get to know him.
As even ibis and others have said.
And then when you ask that, what does Allah want from your, from
creating you, then from Allah the be ill kuramathi Then I think that
Allah has only intended to honor me, because Allah says, well, I
could Corona bunny, Adam, that we have honored the Children of Adam.
So that's why that's what I think Allah wants from me. And when you
say that, where is your law? Where is your Lord from you at this
point, like, you know, what's your relationship with your Lord? So,
he is with me where I am with him. So as I deal with him, he deals
with me the position I am in with him, he is in that position with
me, because Allah subhanho wa Taala says, Well, who are Malcolm?
In Mr. Kuntum? He is with you wherever you are.
This is the apparently the most ignorant and Joe Hill have the
assurance of genetic Baghdadi responding like this. Then he said
to him, Okay, fine. Bernie K for who America and Latin fu
Kotahitanga or Malcolm and condemn this verse, you said that he's
with you wherever you are.
And then how is he with me? How is he with you in this situation?
Exactly what does that mean? So he responded, he said, Who A man came
from Hakuna Matata, who is with us, however we're with him. He's
giving him a symbolic answer. A metaphorical answer. He's with us.
However, were with him for in Cana Mara who Bitola so if we are with
him, obedient, then he is with us, Bill only well, who the he is with
us with assistance and guidance. We're in Connemara, who Bill
ruffler. But if we're with him,
distracted,
occupied with something else,
then, then it's up to him what he wants to do with us. And if we're
with him with disobedience, then he is going to give us a chance he
gives us respite, when could not be Tober, then if we do Tober,
then he accepts. But if we don't do that, then he basically can
punish us. So then the call, he said, You're sending the right
thing. This is the orthodox view of that understandable German
anyway, because he's asking these questions for a reason. Because a
lot of the heresy comes in disregard, especially from Sufis.
You know who I mean? Okay, so now tell him where he is with me, in
particular, so he responded, he says, Binney, Aina Unterman. Who?
You told me first, where are you with God, then I can tell you
where he is with you. Right? So then he said, sadaqa, your ID
female called, you're absolutely right in what you said, Okay. Now,
tell me about another masala. He said, Okay. What is it? He says, I
just want to ask you, why did you kind of look towards you, right?
And stoop down and ask a question, and then to your left, and then in
front? What was all that about?
So, he responded, he says, May Allah subhanaw taala? Give you
honor. He says, the question that you asked me about, I had no idea
how to respond to it. I didn't have the knowledge by which to
respond to you. So then I turned around to ask the angel on my
right that if he would answer
now, I don't know what relationship he's got with the
angel. But he said, I turned to the angel that writes on my right.
And I said, would you respond? So the angel said that la el Medina,
I don't know how the the into the interaction took place? Allah
knows best. Right? He basically said, I don't have any knowledge
about this. So then I said, has to be Allah, may Allah suffice me?
And same thing will for what to Unreal Allah, I consigned my
matter to Allah. And then what about an elf? He said, Well, the
same kind of thing. What about in front? He says, Well, that was me.
When I looked in front like that. I was actually asking my own
heart. I was asking my heart that yet and my heart said yes, we're
going to respond. So I said, Alhamdulillah.
So my heart said, Yes, we're going to respond. So I said
Alhamdulillah Shakira added hedaya One more Kidron noble easy and
Iraqi Neha.
Yeah, hola. So then the call the founder call we found the opening.
He says, Oh, so you speak to agents do
because I mean, nobody speaks to angels. Right? Well, I mean,
people do but that's special, you know. So to Kelly vocal melodica
Angel speak to you for call away hack. He says we'll be upon you. A
matara Rubble, Malika Colombini Hina her donnini Who Jetty Welcome
to Lottie for her. He says, Forget the angels, the Lord of the angel
spoke to me.
This is all his way to answer the question. He said, The Lord of the
angels spoke to me to give me the response I gave you I didn't have
that response in my mind. So if the Lord can speak to me, why not
the angels is trying to tell him although Allah knows exactly how
the angels if they spoke or not, but basically the answer is to
shut them up. Right? To show them what's right. So the Lord of the
angel spoke to me Hina her Danila her Jedi when he told me how to
respond to you. Were going to law it for when I didn't know that. So
then he said Ya got sub Sahara in the handbook. Okay, now I
understand that you're foolish.
This is what the this is what the call is said to now understand
you're quite foolish. Right? Because remember, he said, I'm
going to ask the most foolish one among them. He is foolish in a
very clever sense. He is foolish in a very pious sense rather, like
this is very blunt, very straightforward foolishness,
right?
No, no diplomacy, no politics just very straightforward. Without
better in the cuff Ruka was in the talk is actually now saying and
your cover and your heresy has now become established for now Toledo
and following again. This is a ploy like he's trying to get him
agitated. What do you think now I should do with you will be a year
cutlet in Toledo an actual like how do you want me to kill you?
Like which method do you want me to kill you by for God? Allahu
Allah de Toledo and the father who be what undercard will call that.
What is it that you want to do with me when you are the Cadell CO
that you're the judge of all judges in Kentucky Walla Yuga lake
like what are you going to do with me? And you know if you are the
Cadell CO that and if you are going to judge if you are somebody
who can judge and nobody can judge against you, then go ahead and
judge however you want, again is remaining this position. What are
you failing luck? What kind of agency do you have to do whatever
you want? So then he said to him
On a coffee, I'll move to the BMI you could be be my yoke Libby. I
am a judge and I'm going to judge with whatever can be judged. I
will not leave you my yoke Libby or we're going to judge with
whatever can be judged or we're going to be judged whatever can be
judged for Carla who for him to hit Auburn. Our for him the Kitab
an annual Cordilla the ugly Walla Yokota, are they called the winner
who says Haven't you understood the address the announcement? The
the message from that coffee who judges and who cannot be judged.
So he said what is that? He said Allah says folio Mala Tula munaf
soon che wala to Jonah in quantum dark maroon today no knifes will
be oppressed in any way nobody will be oppressed in any way and
you will not be compensated for except what you used to do
basically saying that you better have justice. So then he said to
him, okay one or two redo under what do you want? Equilibrium?
Earn he said, Do whatever you want it make a judgment whatever you
want. Tip our toe but Neff see Allah they call it Robbie. You can
be happy mile be happy with meeting my lord anyway. So that is
when the coffee turned his head away. And he turned to mutawa
killed the Khalifa. And he said to him, yeah, Amirul mumineen Otto
Corolla I've done everything with these people. let these people go.
let these people go for incana Hula izannah deca, because if
these people are Herot heretics if these people are away from the
deen if they messed up Felisa Allah which are the Muslim then
that means there is no Muslim on the surface of this earth. Hula in
Masabi, who Deen these are the lanterns of knowledge? What were
the evil Islam? The pillars of Islam waha, Willa, meno and a
Haqqani? These are the true believers a bad Hula, hula
meclizine This sincere servants of Allah and that is when the Khalifa
turn to Junaid and he says yeah, Al Qasim de Janeiro Baghdad his
title was a will cost him he says how Allah al fuqaha he said all of
these scholars that are gathered, they had gathered in this huge
gathering. Right? And they had prepared to debate with you so
that they could basically overcome you and and kill you. Right but
right now you have dominated over them by your most your your
basically smallest of your, your murids smallest of your students
right and
and I have taken an oath basically I've made a promise that if you
overcome them, then I'm going to literally just go through them
with the sword and finish them all off. But right now it's up to you
to forgive them.
Either they're going to die now or you're going to forgive them. So
Junaid Al Baghdadi says Al Al to Billa say Edie and your Muhtar I
don't mean whom be Sebby Allah, Allah Allah, Allah has refuge that
oh my master, Allah has refuge that any of them should die
because of my because of me. Why should any of them die because of
me?
of Allah who unknown May Allah forgive us and may Allah forgive
them while I need him fee incurred him either, you know, and there is
no there is there is nothing that I'm going to do for them even
accusing me of these things. Liana who masa calmly dedica in the gym,
working little NB ma tolerable, right? It was just ignorance. It
was only due to ignorance that they sought what they did in the
beginning of Allah who I know what and whom. So that's how mashallah
the whole modulus was ended after that huge problem. We don't
understand, you know, these these salons of the past the leaves of
the past that they could just take your head of they dealt with
matters by just finishing people off. Right, so this was going to
be a huge carnage here. What am Yamatai had done? Well,
hamdulillah nobody died in this gathering. And well hamdulillah so
then after that, what happens is that the coffee he turns to this
new leader loves him now. And he says, Yeah, I need a job anyhow,
look, you know, I'm really astonished by your state, Wallah.
He Shahidan in the book, Allah. Allah is Witness that I love you.
Right? The Allah is Witness that I love you. But I've still got
another question to ask you. Right? As a person who wants
guidance from you. That's why I want to ask you to now tell me and
guide me, may Allah have mercy on you says, okay, ask me whatever
you want. He says that, okay? It says, Ask me whatever you want.
Because if I've got a response, then I'll give it to you. And if I
don't, then I'm going to if I don't have the knowledge, then I'm
going to say I don't have the knowledge and that is not going to
harm me in any way. That's not going to be difficult for me to
say that. I don't know. So then he asked him a number of questions,
right, and he responded to him, and that's how the story ended.
But basically, what this story highlights, right, as if not
authority law says is that when you tried to be a better person,
sometimes Allah will, will bring about a lot of trouble from you,
sometimes from the people who are closest to you, that you should
trust your own colleagues, your own family or whatever, and just
know
that if you're trying to do the right thing and difficulties are
coming upon you, then it's just that Allah wants you to secure a
bond with him. That's all. So now let's read it. Let's read Sheikh
Abdullah gonna go his explanation here to summarize it. He says oh
traveler.
He says, Oh traveler if you suffer any affliction at the hands of
people, whether to your body, wealth or reputation, do not
become despondent and disillusioned. There is much
wisdom underlying the attitude. In reality, this discomfort has come
to you from Allah Most High, Allah is making this happen. If instead
of the hurt, you are favored and comforted by people, you will then
find happiness, comfort and repurposing them and then place
your trust in them instead of in Allah Most High. Allah Most I
desires that your heart be completely disillusioned with
people. Hence he causes creation to hurt you. In consequence, you
will free yourself from all others. When an intelligent person
experiences ingratitude and fickleness in one or two of his
associates, he realizes that others too are going to be
similar. Once you've got it from a few beginner, I can't trust
anybody now. He will therefore free, free his heart from all
Association. This in reality is a great mercy of Allah Most High for
one is that nothing will make the servant neglectful of his true
master. He the servant now in such a spiritual state observes that
everything is temporary. Hence he will not derive pleasure in
anything besides Allah Most I may Allah subhana wa Taala grant us
Alfia and may Allah subhanho wa Taala grant us closest to him
working with that well known hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen Allahumma
anda SoLoMo Amin Casella and Mata Baraka here they will generally

have suffered this loss now that we've suffered this calamity of
Allah We confess we we call out to you and we declare that we are
happier that we are in this state now because of the reward that we
are hopefully inshallah getting because of the suburb we have.
To do that had we not been in this situation of Allah, this is the
way that we have been told by our messengers to deal with suffering.
This is our understanding of our suffering of Allah allow us to do
the right thing of Allah stop us from doing protect us from doing
the wrong things, having the wrong reactions. These are unprecedented
times of Allah nobody has experienced these times before

difficult positions. Opinions are changing every day. Oh Allah, we
ask You to forgive us for any mistake that we make. But Oh ALLAH

mankind of Allah except Allah, Allah, this is a chance of a

than when we were before we entered so that at the end, we can
look back and see that it was a source of mercy for us, oh Allah
that we can turn this into a source of mercy for us. Oh Allah,

reverberate with the with the words of the Advan and Akira and
the Quran of Allah the Maharaja empty, the members are empty of

there. Nobody can to give advice from Oh Allah, the doors are shut.
There are people going to the doors of misogyny, and praying
from there because they cannot enter of Allah what a what a
calamity. This is maybe even our fathers had. Maybe even our
grandparents had never seen something like it. Maybe not.
Anybody in history had seen a place like a situation like this
throughout the world, despite there being probably more misogyny
in the world today than there's ever been in history before. Oh
Allah, Oh Allah, Oh Allah grant us discernment and understanding and
how Allah allow us to repent, allow us to repent and have the
right insight to deal with this. And to call out to you and to
connect with you and to please you, Oh Allah, we know that you
