My dear respected brothers and sisters,
in this short sitting because we don't have
a lot of time
due to another program after ISHA,
I thought it would be a good idea
to
take some time out to revise
some of the hadith of the prophet sallallahu
alaihi wasallam
that clearly indicate how quickly the companions would
respond
to the call
and instructions
of the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
My beloved brothers and sisters,
we can all sit here,
make many claims.
Right? Make a lot of dua,
saying that we love the messenger sallallahu alaihi
wasallam.
Anyone here, if you ask him,
do you love the messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam?
Nobody in their right mind would say
that I love so and so,
or I love this person or that person,
whether it is his wife or his father,
his mother,
more than the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
We may utter with our tongues,
however,
is that really the reality
of how we live our lives?
There is a verse in the book of
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
that Alima Muhammed Rahmatullahi Alaihi,
he called Ayatul Mahna.
The verse of examination.
The verse of examination.
You may wanna call it the acid test.
The verse that really puts you to the
test.
What was this verse? It is the verse
in Surat Al Imran.
Where Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says,
If you really and truly love Allah,
then follow me
and Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala will love you.
The great Tabia'i, Al Hasan al Basri rahmatullah,
he commented on this verse
and he said,
Many claimed
that they love Allah
and his messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
So he tested them with his verse,
to really and truly
see what their realities are.
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala of course already knows
that that teaches you
where you are in the eyes of Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala.
There's even a very profound statement.
Right?
If you really want to know
what position you have in your deen, then
see that which moves you.
And see that which moves you.
There's a very profound hadith of the Prophet
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
narrated by Alima Muslim on the authority of
horeta radiAllahu ta'ala anhu.
And I really want every single one of
you
to
pay close attention to this profound touching hadith.
And it's one of my favorite hadith.
If you don't take anything away from this
lecture other than this hadith, then be it.
Abu Hurayrah
he narrates
that the Messenger
he said,
The like of me and also my ummah
is like the individual who
started a fire.
And I want you all to really just
imagine this with me.
You're in the dark patches of the night,
in the middle of a forest.
You start a fire.
What happens when you start this fire brothers
and sisters?
Messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, he tells us,
All of the bugs and the insects,
they began to held themselves at this fire
that was started.
And you go normally to the Arab world
and it's at night,
switch on the light, right? Inside of your
home, you see all the mosquitoes
flying in, giving you a very very hard
time. Especially if your blood is sweet.
You have a lot of cakes and sweets.
The
mosquitoes that night are going to have a
field day,
with that sweet blood of yours.
When these bugs and insects they see a
light, they go charging towards it.
Right? This is what the messenger sallallahu alaihi
wa
sallam
is saying,
While I am
holding onto your lower garment,
your lower garment, what they call the lungi
in Urdu.
In Arabic they call it an izaar. The
lower garment that an individual wears. Imagine the
messenger salallahu alaihi wa sallam
holding onto your lower garment saying to, oh
Muhammad,
oh Abu Bakr, oh Umar,
O Hassan,
O Hussain,
O Fatima, O Khadija,
stay here, don't throw yourselves in the fire.
And you're running away from the messenger salallahu
alaihi wa sallam,
charging towards that fire.
What is the messenger salallahu alaihi wa sallam
trying to say here?
I'm telling you that which is going to
protect you from the hellfire.
I want Aljannah for you.
I'm holding on to you,
and you're just turning the complete
opposite direction
running away from that which is going to
bring you prosperity
in this dunya before the hereafter.
Just imagine that for a moment brothers and
sisters.
The messenger salallahu alaihi wa sallam calling out
to you saying, don't do this. But what
do we do?
We'll come back to you later.
Let us do what we have to do.
Isn't this the essence of how we live
our lives when we are instructed
to leave off certain things and to carry
out certain commandments,
but we don't fulfill it.
It is as if
the speech of the messenger salallahu alaihi wa
sallam holds no significance whatsoever.
Wonderful brothers,
who are sitting right at the back,
come forward please.
Unless you're an old man,
who may have some back problems,
I want all you guys to come forward
Let
me ask you guys a question.
Who am I gonna pick on?
No, come
on
forward.
Unless like I said, unless you're an old
guy that has back problems,
Allah Allah has given you strength,
and you're sitting at your back. Come on
brothers.
Let me ask you guys a question.
Where's that brother? You, with the gray hoodie.
Yes.
I meant the brother behind you. Because he
was already sitting in the front.
The one behind you. Do you wanna stand
up?
Or is that too much pressure?
Too much pressure. Have
you heard of the famous hadith of Jibril
alaihis salatu sallam, when he came to the
messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam?
I wanna ask you a question.
How far
was he sitting from the prophet salallahu alaihi
wasalam?
Then who can help him out? All
the your friends who are sitting with you
at the back.
Gone.
Guys watch who wants to be a millionaire?
You're 5050 and then you got the phone.
We're gonna answer you guys. You wanna phone
a friend? You wanna phone a friend?
How
far was he sitting from the Messenger sallallahu
alaihi wasallam when he came?
Knee to
knee. Excellent.
He was so close with the messenger salallahu
alaihi wa sallam. Right?
What do we take from that?
What can we take from that?
Guys are going to inshallah to Allah be
scholars of hadith.
What can we extrapolate, inshallah? What can we
extrapolate from the hadith?
Because what did Jibril alaihis salatu wa sallam
come to do?
Yeah.
Messenger salamalaihi wa sallam, he said right at
the end, Hazar Jibril.
Jibril came to you,
He came to you in order to teach
you about your religion.
Right? So what do we take from this?
Jazakum Allah Khair.
That when someone comes to teach you about
your religion, you get as close as possible.
And this is the sunnah of the messenger
salallahu alayhi wa sallam.
Why do we always say sunnah? Even the
message is called Ahlul Sunnatiwajama.
Right? The people
adhere to the jama'at, the congregation are also
the sunnah.
Right? When you look at what the sunnah
means,
right, it is that which the messenger sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam said,
what the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam done,
and whatever he acknowledged.
Right?
Because certain things that were happening in front
of the messenger salalaihi wa sallam and he
would acknowledge it and this became a sunnah.
Wouldn't we would love to be alongside the
messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam?
Right?
Why I ask you now?
Tell me about the lifestyles of
Logan Paul.
There's a life in it.
What Logupol does
on a day to day basis, how he
lives his life. I'm sure a lot of
you youngsters could tell me, Sahay.
Are you guys acting
like
you?
Yeah.
Yeah.
You can tell me. A lot of these
YouTube
superstars,
Sahih.
These rappers that we listen to, we read
up about their lives, we take them as
role models. You can tell me from a
to z,
Sahih,
what they do and what they don't, what
they like and what they don't, how they
speak.
Even the way they walk we might imitate
them.
You can tell me about the messenger salallahu
alaihi wa sallam, how we live this life?
So going back to the point that I
was making.
Right?
You wanna put yourself to the test
How much you love the messenger salallahu alaihi
wa sallam?
The man who risked everything
just so we can have the religion of
Allah
on a plate. Your prophet sallallahu
alaihi wasallam,
in the battle of Uhud,
had his helmet smashed,
his teeth crushed,
and his face gashed.
This is the Prophet salallahu alaihi wa sallam
who really, really had care and concern
about delivering this message to me and you,
and went through all of these troubles alongside
with his companions.
What they went through especially in Mecca.
Right? When you go back
a little bit in history, because the battle
of Uhud took place after he
migrated to Al Madinah.
Tahir, in the 3rd year, right, after migration.
Prior to that,
his companions they were tortured.
You have Bilal
who had a big huge rock placed onto
him. SubhanAllah.
A big huge rock under the scorching heat.
And his response was, I had I had.
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is 1 is 1.
They responded to the call of the messenger
straight
away.
Right? The mother of Yasir,
radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu. Do you know what they
done to his mother? Does anyone know?
Does anyone have an idea?
She was the 1st Marta in alayhis salam,
and she was a woman.
She was a woman
who immediately responded to the messenger salam alaihi
wa sallam when he started his call.
You know what they done to her? They
tied her on the ground,
they took an arrow
and then they placed it in between her
legs.
They placed in between her legs and then
she ended up, what?
Departing from this world.
Umu Yaser. Don't forget that name. That's what
they went through in order to practice the
religion of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
Immediately
responded to the messenger salallahu alaihi wa sallam's
call.
Right?
We don't have these difficulties.
We don't have any issues.
Even here living in Australia,
is anyone
pressurized
to follow his religion? Let's be honest here.
I'm hearing certain areas the Lebanese have taken
over.
It's become a Lebanese zone.
You're able to practice your religion freely.
Can you do that in China?
With everything that we hear.
Look at what the yoga Muslims are going
through.
That's actually what Allah have blessing in within
itself, the freedom that we have.
Then how do we choose to live our
lives when you really think about it?
Surah Pohdi says,
Honor your prophet
and venerate his
Make sure that the love that you have
of the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
precedes everything.
Or is prioritized by you
over everything.
That's a true follower of Muhammad sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam.
Right?
So here are some examples of how
Saq Al Akhir.
A coffee?
I've never drunk coffee in my life.
So I'm gonna give this to someone inshallah
wa ta'ala.
Sheikh,
as you're sitting on my right.
Who's the oldest here? Do you have a
sheikh old in age?
We can honor him with the messenger sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam. He told us.
Right? So who can we give this to?
Our elders.
Also, the message
said, attorney Jibril.
Jibril came to me and he told me
to
give presidents to the elders.
Like, I don't wanna start asking very sensitive
questions about people's ages here. But Insha Allah,
just pass it on.
Nobody is old. Everyone is young.
I think.
Yeah. Someone will give the brother some tissue.
Have your brother and sisters heard about Umr
ibn Khattab radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu?
Who's Umr ibn Khattab radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu?
The companion of the prophet will
come forward.
Come.
The
shaitan used to be terrified of him.
Even the messenger sala'ali was someone said,
Shaitan. By Allah the shaitan is terrified of
you.
Whenever Umar ibn Khattab radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu
took a path,
the shaitan would take fajj and ghaira fajj.
Even the scholars they took from this, the
more higher your iman is, the more the
shaitan will be what? Distant from you.
You'll be very distant from jinn possession. This
is a very hot topic. Right?
Very intriguing topic as well.
Magic and jinn possession and,
that which
falls under it.
Issue of jinn possession, brothers and sisters, very,
very widespread
in places like the UK. I don't know
if it's here as well.
5050. Yeah? With the sisters. Sorry? With the
sisters. Brother said with the sisters. May Allah
azza wa jal cure them.
Right?
Imaan drops, you're very likely to be possessed
by the shaitan. Anyway, this is not a
class on jinn possession and magic.
The reason why I mentioned Umar ibn Khattab
radhiallahu ta'ala Anhu,
right,
is that
he had a son called Abdulai ibn Umar.
Abdulai ibn Umar
was second in line from
amongst those who narrated the most hadith.
Even in Iraqi in his thousand line poem,
he said,
second
is
Abdul
Abba
Numa.
I
believe
it's 2,630 hadith. 2nd is, Abdul Abi n
Umar. I believe it's 2,630
hadid that he narrated.
So Abdul Abi n Umar
was a companion
that would try to imitate the messenger salallahu
alaihi was in everything that he done.
He would even go to the places that
the messenger salallahu alaihi wasallam went to.
Right.
He said, I heard the messenger salallahu alaihi
wa sallam say,
You are not allowed to prohibit your wives
or your female folk
from going to the Masjid.
This is nahi. It's a prohibition.
If they seek your permission.
However,
there is an additional wording he says,
When they do leave Tiram Masjid, they should
leave
When they do leave Tiram Masjid, they should
leave
unbeautified,
unperfumed,
not making themselves look good when going to
the house of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
Does that make sense? As for you, a
husband, you are not allowed to prevent
your wife from going to the house of
Allah ajawajal if she seeks your permission.
Surah Messenger
Salaam said
this, Abdulai ibn Umar radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu,
he had some sons.
One of them was called Salim, and Salim
is the one who's narrating this from his
father.
He also had another son called Bilal.
Bilal ibn Abdillahi,
when he heard Abdul Abdu'lai Abdulhamur radiAllahu ta'ala
Anhu say this, he said, wallahi
By Allah we're going to stop them from
going to the Masjid.
By Allah he swears,
We're going to stop them from going to
the house of Allah. We don't want our
wives to go,
and I'm not going to let them go.
So Aqbala alaihi Abdullah.
Abdullah ibn Umar radhiallahu ta'ala an as you
can imagine,
has become
absolutely
furious.
He
insulted him in a way, reprimanded him,
in a manner
that I never ever heard him previously
doing.
I tell you about what the messenger sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam wa taqool, wallahi lanaumna. I
tell you about what the messenger sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam said, and then you say to
me, by Allah we're going to stop now?
That's how furious Abdul Abdu'laihi wa ta'ala anhu
became.
His son Salim is saying,
I never ever heard him reprimand anyone like
this.
Or speak to his son Abdul Bilal in
that way.
So this is how they venerated the sunnah
of the messenger.
Not that I'm saying brothers that you should
go,
insulting the people who don't follow the messenger.
You have to be wise.
You have to be soft and gentle.
This is a very different case.
Sa'abdulayhi wa sallam. Amongst his children.
Right? Who he teaches on a regular basis,
and then he responds in his manner. But
as for you living in this kind of
society,
when you advise the people, how should you
be advising them? In a rough and tough
manner, will you end up chasing them away
from the religion of Allah?
Who is the one who said
Who is the one who said
Firaun.
He said, I'm your lord the most high.
Anna
rabbukumul
Allah. I'm your lord the most high. Imagine
that.
Do you know anyone who's walking on the
streets of Australia who claims that?
Anyone?
You guys ever come across an individual like
that?
Who says I haven't come to know about
a God other than myself.
He said,
the most highest.
Even then, subhanAllah,
when Allah send Musa and Harun to Firaun
to advise him, to teach him,
What did he tell them or instruct them
with?
When you go to make sure you speak
them in a gentle and soft manner, perhaps
he may what?
Be reminded.
Perhaps he may take heed.
So the scholars they mentioned, if this is
with regards to someone who says, then
how about the one who says, Subhanah Rabi'alaalai
in his sujood?
I know brothers and sisters, right?
It's very hard
to see someone going against the deen in
your household.
However, my alaasouf ashadeed, the reality of the
matter is we're living in a time and
age,
right,
when the Muslims have become very, very liberalized.
Our sisters have been polluted with the feminist
mindset,
where they will utter and spew all types
of
filth and evil comes out of their mouths.
Right?
How are you going to respond? I remember
many many years ago I would say, right,
we have to expect
we have to expect
our kids to come home, and I said
this I think yesterday as well, and say
dad,
Ruqaiya
and Fatima are saying, dad,
this is my boyfriend Mark. This is my
boyfriend John,
and I wanna marry him.
How are you going to react?
You want to allow your your Arabian
Ghaira to come out?
Your protective jealousy
and start going crazy?
Deal with it accordingly. Right?
It's not even that anymore. What we need
to expect is that our kids will
one day wake up and say, dad
and you got Muhammad saying this, dad, I'm
in love with Mark.
Happens
very much.
The key and with how he deals with
this. This is just the reality of the
matters. The message
3 hadith that I quickly mentioned when the
messenger was saying from the signs of the
Awe is that the ilm becomes scarce, knowledge
becomes so sorry. Ignorance becomes so widespread. Zina
becomes prevalent as well. There doesn't come a
time except that a time that comes after
is worse. Holding on to your religion is
like holding on to oh, cool.
That's the reality of the matter.
That's why they are in need of Islamic
education. Otherwise, don't be surprised.
Right? When they start bringing home
that which they consumed,
right, at the universities and schools,
which is a breeding ground for kufr and
shirk and evil.
That was the first example,
second example that I've written down.
Hassan al Basirahmatullahi alaihi
commented on the statement of Allah
Do not do something called the Adal
to your
female folk.
Like you have a sister, don't do something
called the What does mean? I'll explain it
in a moment inshallah.
He
says,
Hassan Basyi is saying that Maqal ibn Yasar
said to
him that this verse or this part of
the verse, fa lata'aduruhuna,
do not do al-'awal to your female folk,
was sent down pertaining to him.
He says the following,
I married my sister off.
I married my sister off.
Marry your sister off, brother and sister is
a very very noble thing.
It really really is.
Today you get people becoming upset if somebody
comes and asks you about your sister.
Why do you need to get upset?
Gets angry, or his ghayra comes out, the
brava, you see him boiling, lush.
He wants to take her in a halal
manner.
Would you
prefer,
right,
for him to maybe what?
Go around in circles and maybe do things
to her and what He's coming to you
directly.
Asking to do it in a halal way.
Would you rather help than her
maybe finding some guy outside?
You don't know what he's on,
and you have no
say whatsoever.
After he married her off, he ended up
divorcing her.
After woman's divorce, she goes through a waiting
period which is referred in the sharia as
the period.
How long is that?
Almost 10 days. It's a long time.
3 months?
3 months or 3 menstrual cycles?
There's difference brothers.
Some women they have what?
Shorter monthly cycles.
So for you to tell her now 3
months, that might be a zul. You're making
a longer for her. So it has to
be about 3 menstrual cycles.
However, if she doesn't have her monthly,
cycle,
right?
We go to the next thing which
is
waiting for 3 months.
They've asked for 4 months and 10 days,
asked for a woman who
has lost her husband that she has to
wait. Makes sense?
So when a woman is divorced after
the 3 month
no not 3 month, the 3 menstrual cycles
that has come to an end,
right,
Her husband can take her back in that
period without having to do a new nikah.
So he's divorced,
couple of days later he changes his mind,
he says, listen, I've taken you back. Does
he need to do a nikah?
No. Providing that this is after the first
talaq and the second
talaq.
Qayib,
what happens now if the 3
menstrual cycles comes to an end,
and now he wants to take her back,
what does he have to do? He has
to do a Nikah again.
He has to what?
Redo his Nikah.
Okay?
So now after a period came to an
end,
he came to us from handling marriage again.
2nd time around he wants to marry
her.
I married you off.
I helped you with putting your house together.
I honored you, and then you divorced her?
And then subhanallah,
you wanna ask her
for a hand in marriage again?
After all of that, he says,
By Allah she will never come back to
you.
Right? He said he was an okay guy.
He was he was good.
Look how fair he's been.
How about sometimes when a marriage breaks down?
Mention about him every insult under the sun,
so he never gets married again.
Ayesha Khanik?
You know he's a good person.
Right?
He's a decent bloke.
Marriages are not always to be.
There's hikmah, there's wisdom behind as to why
a marriage may break down, and then Allah
may give you a better option down the
line.
And he's saying that his wife
and his ex wife wanted to go back
to him.
Right? She wanted to go back to him.
I found Sheikh about the coffee.
I'm not I didn't want it to go
to waste and, you know,
So Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, he sent it
out.
Do not do of them. Meaning,
don't prevent them from getting married.
Don't block them
from
wanting to get back with this guy.
Right?
It's a type of oppression.
I know the father has the right to
the the guardianship.
You are not allowed to marry a woman
unless you seek permission
from? From a father. Hazam Musa Salaam alayhi
wa sama said,
There's no nikah except with the permission of
the guardian. In another hadith we are told,
Any woman who marries without the permission of
her guardian,
It is invalid invalid. He said it three
times.
You don't just like write up this
contract between you and her, or you just
drop the guy, and your father, bring some
next guy that you've never heard of, can
you just be the witness and whatever? Let's
write it up and then Khalas you go
home with her. It doesn't work like that.
There's a whole system in the Sharia.
So when this verse came down, what was
the response of Maqal Biyasar? Yeah, but no,
but
kaif, wamadriesh,
but he did this
la. Al An Af'alu You Rasulullah.
The verse came down,
Messenger Salih alaihi wa sallam is reciting his
verse onto Maqalib Niasar.
Straightaway,
fazawwajahaiyah.
He married
his sister off to
this individual.
SubhanAllah. An immediate response to
what Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala send down onto
his messenger.
Oh my brothers and sisters, how
much are we in need of
applying this hadith?
What is very very common in the UK
and also here amongst Muslims?
And this
nal Asif al Shadeel, it's sorry to say
we've taken this from the kuffar, that which
relates to
custody rights.
Come in. Put your hand up if you
come to know about a case like that.
The Sheikh put his hand up straight away.
Honestly guys, I just wanna have an idea
of how common it is.
He said it's an understatement.
To say too common is an understatement.
May Allah have mercy upon you guys.
Right? Custody rights. If he doesn't get it
his way,
I'm gonna take it to
the Australian courts.
Or she doesn't take or get it her
way, because in the UK,
the law,
it's in the hands of
the woman.
Is it here as
well?
Oh, dear.
So it favors the woman
more than the guy.
Just yesterday, subhanAllah, one of the brothers, one
of the du'a'atiya,
he was telling me that sometimes he sits
between the husband and the wife looking to
find a solution
to their problems.
She doesn't get it her way
on my bike.
To the courts.
Subhanallah. And we know the brothers and sisters,
oppression is one of the worst things that
you could do. It will come back to
haunt you sooner or later.
It will come back to haunt you sooner
or later.
And especially if you're turning your child
against
his father
or the other way around.
Well I remember, subhanAllah, this is a close
relative of mine.
From a very young age, the mother instilled
within her son, your dad doesn't like you,
your dad doesn't want anything to do with
you, your dad doesn't look after you financially.
When he's been sending money for years,
all the way up until he came to
the UK.
He was always very dutiful to his mother.
Comes to the UK.
UK.
Where everything's at your disposal.
What do you think happened?
It was only a matter of time that
he turned against his mother.
It reached the point where
the mother had no choice but to
speak to her ex husband, of course the
father of a child, and say, I can't
do anything.
It's in your hands.
The ball's in your court. It's a little
bit too late now, isn't it? After he's
grown old in age and he's become so
stubborn.
That's the sad reality of this dunya brothers
and sisters. I believe in something called what
goes around comes around.
Is this a
shar'i
aspect of our, you know, is it a
deen related issue? Yes, it is.
Especially you guys who mess around with women.
You have a sister, be extra careful. What
goes around comes around. You want to mess
around with other people's daughters, right? And even
their wives at times.
Don't be upset when it happens back to
you, because Iran comes around.
In another narration, we are told Fida'ar Rasulaihi
Wasallam or
Fida'ar Rasulaihi Wasallam
called him, he said, come, Omaqil.
He read the eye on him,
He put his ego to the side.
He stepped on his ego, he bit on
his tongue, and sometimes you have to do
that.
Right?
And he what? Adhere to the commandment of
Allah
Your ego is not above the instruction of
Allah
Think you can oppress the people?
Just because
you might have a bigger position than them
in society,
or you may think that a law is
on your side.
Remember Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is Al Qaweel
Mateen. He's greater than everything that we've just
mentioned. Greater than you and whatever you plan
to do.
I really like this third example. How long
do we have, Zakaria?
Before we have to?
20 minutes. Yeah?
We can handle it if you have bit
of an anger problem.
And that's
He says, this is an Arab thing.
Hey. We can make Arab jokes,
because we're all Arabs.
A man sought permission to enter upon Umar
Al Khattab
and he said,
comes to Ummul Khattab radiAllahu akbar, comes to
Ummul Khattab radiAllahu ta'ala Anujhalifa of the Muslimir,
and he says,
Ummul Khattab.
It's like saying, oh
you, you don't give us enough,
and you don't judge fairly
when dealing without disputes.
He's saying this to Umar Khattab radiAllahu ta'ala
Anha.
Alhur
ibn
Nuqais who used to sit in the gatherings
of
me ask you this
question. Who's more knowledgeable and virtuous, al Khurr
ibn Khattab?
Is there any doubts about that? Even if
you don't know al Khurr ibn Khattab,
right? You wouldn't say that he's more virtuous
than Umar Khattab radhiyallahu ta'ala.
Because Umar Khattab radhiallahu is a household name.
Right?
Oh, Imran Al Khattab, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
he said to his prophet,
Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala said, pardon.
Command with good and turn away from the
ignorant.
Indeed he is from the ignorant.
He says, Umr ibn Khad, the moment he
had that,
his
fairness has been questioned.
His judgments, brothers and sisters, has been what?
Thrown up in the air, right?
There's a question mark around that, Ummulkhatta'ala
Anuj Adala. Him being upright.
But he was now told about his verse,
for
Allah
He did not
even think about you know what? Let me
still continue doing whatever I thought of doing,
which is to strike him.
As he was somebody who would adhere to
anything that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala said in
his Quran.
Allah is speaking here.
It's not some random individual. Allahu Jallafya Ola.
He's telling you, you need to do this.
If your mom was calling you and saying,
you Muhammad, I need you to do x
y and zed. And you said to her
mom wait, I'm gonna come back to you.
Would you consider that to be disrespectful?
Would that be disrespectful? Let's be honest.
110%.
Allah is greater than the prophet and
your mother times
10.
And also, subhanAllah,
did Umar Khattab
respond to Alhur ibnuq's by saying, listen,
I'm the Amir.
I'm the leader.
You shouldn't
dare to question whatever I want to do.
Was that his response?
He
was somebody who was what? Humble.
But is eager to the side.
When I sometimes hear statement, I used to
hear it quite often
back in the day.
Right? You wanna teach me how to make
wudu and I used to clean your backside?
One time, subhanAllah, when I was in Yemen,
I heard an audio of 1 of the
flag bearers of the dawah
in the UK
saying, you wanna teach me what is right
and what is wrong, and I knew about
the sunnah.
I knew about the way of the salaf
before you knew what a sandwich was.
This is arrogance.
Arrogance is what as the prophet said,
To reject the truth and to belittle the
people.
Isn't that so?
You wanna be someone who Allah Azza wa
Jal raises and learn to humble yourself.
Yes, it will be
something that burns you.
Having to just admit, okay I was wrong.
But remember
being raised in the eyes of the people,
is not in the hands of the people.
No matter how much they puff you up
and they make you feel and
Allah could just drop you and then raise
somebody else.
Never does one humbleize Allah
raise
him. Yeah?
He mentions when he was asked about the
that you submit yourself to the truth and
now you are submissive to it.
If you were to hear it from the
most ignorant of people, you accept the truth
from him. You were to hear it from
a child, you accept it from him.
You what? Accept it from him. That is
what a tawadah.
May Allah grant us that.
How many have we taken so far?
Three examples.
If I were to ask you guys, can
you guys list it?
This is why having a pen and a
paper, or if you wanna have
phone or an iPad.
You know, the poet says,
It's a master of the Talib, the student.
He carries with him scrap paper.
He writes when he rise, and he writes
when he
walks.
Of course, because we're living in the time
of the millennials or in the era of,
the millennials. Right? I had to change up
the line of poetry a little bit. So
I said,
Scrap paper. No one carries scrap paper. So
to make it rhyme, I said, Aybad,
meaning an iPad.
Write down all of your notes.
Up until recently,
I used to make dua for Steve Jobs.
You guys heard of Steve Jobs? Who's Steve
Jobs?
Founder of Apple,
Jamil.
When did he pass
away?
2,000. Who said that?
2011. I think it's somewhere around the time.
Yeah.
But I only found that recently. I used
to make dua frame all the way up
until
recently.
Because of what he invented, the notes page.
The notes has made my life so easy.
Even the notes that I'm reading from now
is something that I put together maybe
years ago.
And now when I'm a must do a
lecture, just take it out, search it, put
a word in, the whole notaspate comes up.
And this is when you really
take utter joy out of
the tiredness that you used to go through
in writing down your notes.
Because you are bound to forget.
The insan,
which means
human being. Right? The was not called except
because he forgets.
You look at the
root letters.
Alif.
Next example.
Again, for those
who are, have some
Let us quickly summarize
hadith,
when he said
that he was at his fountain, where water
comes out of,
And he was watering.
So group of people came
and they began to just dare one another,
who's going to go and take from Abu
Adar's fountain?
And he'll probably get harmed in the way.
Probably get boxed in all of his hairs.
You need to count it.
Who's gonna go into
it?
What happened?
He ended up
breaking his fountain.
What did Abu Dhar do? What do you
think he done?
He said he punched him. No. No. I
didn't punch him.
He
was standing up. What did he do? Immediately
he sat down.
After sitting down, he goes and lies down.
So then he asked he was he was
asked like,
why do you sit down?
And then he ended up lying down. He
said,
Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, he said to us,
If one becomes angered,
right, and he's standing up, let him go
and sit down.
If
it's anger,
diffuses
if not, then let him go and what?
Lie down.
Narrated by Ibrahim Mohammed Rahmatullahi.
Let's be honest, have we ever done that?
Have we ever done that?
Someone's anger us, became infuriated,
ever like thought about, you know what, let
me sit down to cool myself down.
Feel like maybe your ego
is trampled with.
Or this may show a weakness to the
one who's angering you.
Reason why you're being told to sit down
and to lie down, it's meant to cool
you down.
It's a mechanism now to cool you down.
Also the messenger, alaihi wasalam, told us, right,
that when individual becomes angry, he should what?
Should make to cool himself down.
What was Ali ibn Abi Talib
called? Does anyone know?
What did the messenger was the one time
call him?
Abu Tarab. Why did he call him Abu
Tarab? What does Tarab mean?
And death, your son.
He called him the father of death.
Not like the death, Johnny. I think you
guys know what I'm talking about. The soil,
they would call it
in English, they call it they say that.
But the father of soil
or to rob of sand.
Why?
One time, the missus
found him lying down
in a masjid.
Why was he lying down in a masjid?
Why would he sleep in bed when he
has a house?
Going to fight.
They go into an argument.
What did he do? He walked out of
the house
in order to diffuse the situation.
All of these points that I just mentioned,
it is there to what diffuse
your anger.
You stand there, especially when she's getting
under your central nervous system.
And she can't stop whinging and talking, and
and she's going on and on and on.
The 2 wires about to touch one another
as you're about to blow up in a
moment.
Any
in essence, is a TNT that is waiting
to blow up.
Before anybody cuts out, we're not speaking about
bombs.
Figuratively speaking.
Just in case there are undercovers.
Yeah.
We're talking about
those that are no different to
the undercover agent
who might become
furious with his wife, and she gets under
his central nervous system.
Next example. How many is that?
4.
Muhammad ibn Nabi Salam, he says,
I was a young infant
who the messenger
was looking after.
So one time food was brought
and my hand was going everywhere.
My hand was going everywhere.
Messenger said
to me, he says,
Oh young one,
Mention the name of Allah, say eat
with your right hand and eat that which
is in front of you.
Umar ibn Nabi Salam al radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu,
as a young child from that moment on,
what did he say?
I continued
eating like that from that moment on.
We can take so many benefits
from this narration.
So many benefits.
How often have I advised the parent
to do something about what their child is
doing? You know what their response would normally
be?
Akhi is just a young child.
And then one time telling a relative,
your daughter is listening to Justin Bieber.
Just leave her. She's just a child. She'll
leave her off eventually.
Have you guys heard of that method, that
saying?
You can't teach an old dog
what new tricks.
Very difficult.
From a very young age as Hassan al
Basri mentioned,
What you learn at a young age is
like carving into a stone. It becomes instilled
within them from a very very young age.
Wallahi, they could be as young as
1 year,
maybe what, 3 4 months.
They tend to imitate
their fathers.
So look at that
brother who's praying with his son, right at
the back of the Masjid.
Or Abiyush, for example.
Because he idolizes his father. It is his
father that is his role model, sahe.
You don't even need to speak.
Like children, they learn with their eyes more
than they learn with their ears. Agreed?
Wallahi, even if they are as young as
1 year of age.
Have you guys heard of Tamia?
You know Tamia?
Tamia
is 1 year 5 months,
but she prays.
Has ever heard a young child praying?
Can't happen.
And many one and a half year old
children, they pray as well.
Is it because their mom drags them and
makes them pray a lot?
Because they are watching their parents doing something,
they'll go to the Musalah and start what
going into sujood like that.
Tamia, may Allah preserve
her,
even when she starts praying and sticking her
head onto the ground,
she starts doing this with her mouth,
What is she doing?
She's imitating
her parents when they read in the salah.
Because Taymiyyah sees her mother wearing hijab,
she sometimes goes and picks up the hijab
and puts it on. And then she comes
running to us, look at me.
And she wants what?
Acknowledgment for what she's doing.
From a very young age, they can what?
Have Islamic values instilled within them.
You see little children, the age of 1,
2, 3, on TikTok tray jumping up and
down. Are you still there?
Jumping up and down on TikTok playing to
the music.
As young as that.
Tiblish,
how did that come about? Because they saw
everybody doing it, they started doing it as
well.
We gave them these apps and this now
the children, at the age of 1a half,
they start doing this with their hands.
Sometimes what Taymiyyah does is when the mom
speaking to
her father,
she sees that red button. She goes and
clicks on it, switches off the call.
So every time she's looking for the red
button,
switches off.
They know how to use a phone.
So from a very young age, they become
exposed to apps like what?
TikTok.
By the way, brothers, you may not necessarily
agree with what I say. I'm totally against
TikTok.
It still surprises me when I walk around
sometimes,
wherever I go people are saying, oh you're
the guy on TikTok.
No I won against TikTok.
One brother even said to me, subhanAllah,
I don't know anyone that warns against TikTok
more than you, because I have a couple
of videos online.
And you're the one that's going viral on
TikTok.
Man Asaf.
Honestly brothers and sisters, wallahi,
giving them these apps at a very young
age, I honestly
feel as if we're giving them petrol and
fire.
Hey, Ahmed. Take this cup, there's petrol in
it.
Take these matches as well and start playing.
And
I don't buy the argument of the Islamic
content on there.
Yes, there is.
The way I look at TikTok is, you
know when a building imagine this masjid is
burning now.
What would everybody do? Guys would run outside.
And then?
What would you do after running out the
masjid?
Called a
firefighter. Right?
Would anybody in their right mind walk into
the masjid
to have a cup of water?
Let me go get the bottle of water
to drink.
No. No. Not the bottle of water to
extinguish Faila.
I need to quickly go to the kitchen.
I'm thirsty. I'm gonna drink water and come
back out.
Drinking water is a benefit, Sahid.
That's the way I look at TikTok. Taking
a little bit of benefit, however, you need
to walk into
the Masjid that is burning down to the
ground.
Right?
An app, or should I say, a music
app that's been created for 1,
to dance rig in his body while music
is what playing in the background.
When you get a chance, go to
my YouTube channel. There's a
video of a young child
asking the question.
Have you seen the video?
And that video, SubhanAllah, was speaking about TikTok,
it got like millions of views on TikTok.
He's asking why shouldn't I be on what
on TikTok? And then I asked him,
Baby, you tell me about TikTok. When you
go on TikTok, what do you see?
This is a young child saying an old
man. He says an old man wriggling his
body, dancing with music playing in the background.
And then everyone in the music starts laughing
and he says, I'm gonna tell my mom
to get off TikTok.
Allah is a Musiba. He honestly is a
Musiba.
Right?
And the child is just bound to follow
their parents. Would you guys agree with that?
Just as we saw. Sorry, Sheikh Ay. I
made everybody
turn towards their direction while you're praying.
See the young child doing exactly what the
father does.
If the mother has TikTok and
I remember subhan'al, an auntie came up to
me and she's like, can you talk to
my daughter? Can you tell her to get
off TikTok?
I asked this auntie who was wearing a
jibab and a hijab, auntie do you have
Snapchat on your phone?
You have Snapchat on your phone, auntie?
Hey, why do you want her to get
off TikTok?
She's just using an app that is very
similar to the one that you're using.
Sawan is to have a method.
They have a saying. Tell me who's right.
Sawan,
You know what I mean?
Wherever the camel goes, the children, they go
the exact same direction.
They're bound to follow.
Also, you have Subhanallah Ubaid and Mus Samat
teaching
his child Al Aqeedah from a very young
age.
Right?
Masjid Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is teaching Abdulai ibn
Abbas, the young man,
akhida from a very young age,
instilling with him in the Islamic belief.
So the moment he hears a couple of
things, he's not just going to shake.
His faith won't just become shaky like that,
As we mentioned, and I'll keep repeating it
while I'm here.
We send our kids to university.
I'm not saying don't take them to school.
Right?
However, it may well be that you have
to take your children out of school.
Because they're going to now
enforce upon them. I'm just I'm I'm not
I'm not imposing anything by the way.
They will start enforcing upon them to
Free music has been happening for time.
Not even a guys, this has been happening
for years.
Not so long ago, I I was I
was told that they got the little kids
to dress up
with what
the opposite gender was
in one of the scores.
Again, I just wanna thank the Australian government
for
allowing me into the country to speak the
the hack.
How many examples is that?
How long do you
have?
We'll take the 5 insha Allah.
Yeah?
Brothers and sisters. May Allah honor every single
one of you for attending the class
even with short notice.
Right? This wasn't even, subhanAllah, part of the
program itself. It was only
organized last night.
As I was walking out of the lecture,
I was getting a phone call, brother telling
me I need to put it up on
my Instagram.
So Jazakam Malkhai for attending on such short
notice.
There's a program now.
L'ambang. What's it called?
Nakimba. Nakimba.
In the Somali center.
If you want to attend, you know,
feel free to attend, inshallah,
all the other programs.
You can find on the schedule which is
on,
my Instagram and my Twitter, and it's on
the YouTube as well, Insha Allahu Ta'ala.
What was the other lecture I was?
Yeah. Oh, sisters.
They're sisters.
Yeah.
Women only, I think it is. What time
is that?
In in in the whole bread.
You can find all the details.
And then UMA on Monday.
I would love to take a q and
a and also to give everybody salams.
But,
I I I have to show off.
Yeah.
May Allah honor every single one of you
guys.
Azekria?
No. Men only. Is there women for tonight
as well?
No.
Men only.
Okay. Apparently, it's
only men only.
That's not that's not that's not equal rights,
