So very very quickly my brothers and my
sisters, some very important points.
I think I have maybe what? 7 or
8 points written down, of why aqeed is
extremely important.
And I hope you guys write that this
write that down.
Point number 1.
Much of the corruption
that you see globally my brothers and my
sisters, it stems off from a belief
that settled in one's heart.
Ibnutayimir Rahmatullahi aalahe says,
You will barely find.
1 who has corrupt beliefs
except that this will now start showing on
his limbs.
What do I mean by that?
My brothers and my sisters, would you agree
that
when you look at
the different
corruption,
the killings and the mass murders that are
taking place around the world, it all started
with a belief.
For example now, China.
Does China do whatever they do
except after a belief settled in their hearts?
They believe something.
And because of that they're doing x y
and z. Sahih.
You look at Israel,
are they doing whatever they're doing except after
a belief that settled in their hearts?
Agreed brothers and sisters?
The whole world runs because of what people
believe.
When the muslims are treated a certain way,
would you agree my brothers and masters, those
who are treating them badly
was because of them believing something?
Likewise when you look at, and I like
to use this example,
when you look at the feminist,
who utters statements of kufr
speaking about Allah aasawajal in a very boisterous
way.
How could this be? Look how oppressive this
is.
Right? Based on her ignorance, she came across
certain verses, and she thought to herself, this
doesn't fall in line with
what the feminist,
right, have polluted me with, which is equal
rights.
It doesn't fall in line with that. She's
looking at everything with a particular lens.
And then she utter statements such as, this
is oppressive.
Would you guys agree that she only uttered
it? Remember what I said earlier,
there's never a person who has a corrupt
belief except it begins to show on his
limbs.
So now a belief settled in her heart,
which she then
started uttering on her tongue. Agreed brothers and
sisters?
The person that we see standing in front
of the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam's grave
saying,
oh messenger of Allah,
uplift from me my difficulties,
which is an act my brothers and my
sisters that takes you out the fold of
risaab.
It breaks my heart. At times when I
walk past the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam's
grave, and I see
people who lack knowledge
falling into the sin. SubhanAllah.
He only did this with his tongue and
he raised his hands. Right? You can see
it now, professing on his limbs
only after the belief settled in his heart.
Agreed guys?
Let me take out something else that I
witness in my own eyes.
The most sacred place on the face of
this earth is where?
Kaaba, right?
You know people always say, why you're always
calling about shirk?
Shirk, shirk, shirk, shirk, shirk, tawhid, tawhid.
No one's worshiping idols.
Wallahi guys.
I was going around the Kaaba,
and there were some
who were shouting,
Oh Ali, save us from the hellfire.
Yeah,
Ali An Egyptian guy got so angry, he
was on the other side of the mataf,
and he could hear them,
chanting this. He said, Say you Allah, say
you Allah. And
instead of taking heed, they raised their voices
even louder,
And you know what really broke my heart
brothers and sisters?
There were some Indonesians, mazhakin.
They don't believe this. And I know this
with surety and certainty.
Right?
They are people who really really love good.
The Indonesians, Wallahi Al Azeem.
Right? And normally you see them doing group
dhikr as they're going around
the Kaaba, and they joined in.
They joined in brothers and sisters.
They're uttering that which they don't understand. They
don't mean it and intend that which they
are doing, subhanAllah.
This is all happening brothers and sisters on
the most sacred place or around the most
sacred place on the face of this earth.
Right?
People have gone to the Kaaba in order
to perform hajj,
and it may well be that they end
up coming back
because of what?
They end up coming back and the most
precious thing to them at Tawhid has become
what?
So tainted.
So the point that I was making,
whenever individual
has these corrupt beliefs, it begins to show
on his limbs.
That's why it's so so important brothers and
sisters.
Likewise, the one who goes and blows himself
up,
he only done that
he only done that after
believing something. Right? He believes that if I
go and do that, I will receive
x amount of virgin huris.
Right?
He believes that.
It all started with a belief that settled
in his heart, which then began to profess
on his lips.
And the examples are many my brothers and
my sisters.
So this first point was,
much of the corruption that you see globally
stems off from one belief.
Point number 2 my brothers and my sisters,
from the greatest of ways to earn the
love of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
is by learning
about Allahu Jallifee'ullah,
strengthening your aqeedah,
that which one
needs to believe.
Our only source
of information that we have of Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala is by way of what brothers
and sisters?
Who can tell me?
If we want to learn about the mightiness
of Allah aasawajal,
what is it that we should study?
I can't hear you guys.
Quran and sunnatayb, I want something more specific.
Quran and sunnatayb is very very vast.
Tuhid, tayb, what about the tuhid?
Jazaakallahu khayran, the names and attributes of Allah
azza wa jal.
The more you learn about the names and
attributes of Allah azza wa jal, my brothers
and a man said, would you agree that
we become so much more conscious of him,
we begin to realize how small we are
as human beings. SubhanAllah.
Ibn
Taymah Mutallahu Alaihi
Wa
Salam gave glad tidings
to a man who loved Surat Al Ikhlas.
Surat Al Ikhlas speaks about what brothers and
sisters?
Speaks about the oneness of Allah azza wa
jal and who Allah azza wa jal is.
That's our only source of information of Allah
azza wa jal, learning about his names and
attributes.
Right?
He always used to lead the salah by
reading suratuliklas,
sahih.
Up until the companions were with him, they
got irritated. What's wrong with this guy?
He's always reading surah ikhlas.
When they went back, they went to the
messian salah and they told him.
And then he asked him why do you
do that?
He said, the
because Suratul Ikhlas is the attribute of Ar
Rahman,
the most merciful.
You know the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said
to him,
hubbuqa yaha
adhalaqaljannah.
You loving the surah has now admitted you
into Aljannah, Allahu Akbar.
And then Ibn Qaym he says,
Whoever comes to love the attributes of Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala,
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will love him.
Learn about Allahu jala fee'u'llah brothers and sisters.
A lot of us we wouldn't do something
called benefit fraud.
If we learnt about some of the attributes
of Allahu jalaifi'u'llah.
One time I was advising an auntie,
right?
And his auntie she was like please talk
to my son, he does CC scams.
He empties people's bank accounts.
There was once upon a time in Lestat
they were driving the latest cars, 18 year
olds,
2,000 and
20 plates, or 20 plates, that's what you're
gonna say.
Is it 2 o, is that what you're
gonna say?
Or 19 plates.
I don't drive them kind of cars, so
I don't know any brothers.
I'm trying to get through with the Toyota
Corolla,
nearing its expiry date.
And I said to the auntie, auntie let's
be honest here, are you someone who cheats
the government?
And she was like, yeah, but the thing
is, who's going to provide for me if
I don't cheat the government?
So I said, why are you upset at
your son auntie?
Why just because he's making more money than
you?
Isn't that what the reality is? The Somalis
they have a
proverb.
Right? They say,
whichever direction the camel goes, you will see
the children going the exact same direction.
Agreed?
A house that is built on haram, don't
expect it to produce that which is halal.
And this is what I really want to
quickly stand over. She said who is going
to provide for me? Right. Billahi a'laik brothers
and sisters. From the names of Allah azza
wa jal is what? Arazaq.
He who provides.
Right?
He who provides abundantly.
He gives us so much that at times
the mind can't imagine.
Agreed brothers and sisters?
Let me ask you guys a question. Right?
Some of our relatives in places like Somalia,
Yemen,
Do they have benefits?
Do they have child tax credit?
Do they have that guys? Job seekers allowance,
do they have that?
They're game by. Right?
Allah Azza wa j is providing for them.
The issue with
being in an environment, brother and sister, where
you get everything for free,
wallahiil aaleem, he actually has an impact on
your relationship with Allah aasawajahu when you think
about it.
We become so reliant and dependent on the
non muslims,
that the moment that that's cut off,
we don't know where to turn to.
Likewise brothers and sisters having free healthcare,
I'm not saying that you can't go to
the NHS guys, but look what happens to
you the moment you become sick.
7:55
in the morning, you're on the phone to
the GP.
Sahih?
I'm not saying that you can't call the
general practitioner guys.
But what happened now to maybe turning to
Allah azza wa jal? It could be that
one dua where you say,
You shafi.
O you who curse.
Right? Ibrahim Alaihisat waslam said, when I become
sick it is Allah azza wa jal who
kills me. One du'a, one du'a.
One supplication to Allah
my brothers and my sisters,
is the reason why
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will be curious straight
away.
Then
give a call to the general practitioner brothers
and sisters.
But can you see now? When everything is
so free, we become so dependent and reliant
on the kuffar. Look what happens to us?
Or thinking that
if I don't do this particular move which
is cheating the government or cc scams, then
I'm going to be broke.
My favorite hadith brothers and sisters, and I'm
just digressing here is,
you don't leave something for the sake of
Allah.
You don't leave something
because you are conscious of Allah
except Allah will give you that, which is
better?
Give it a go and then send me
an email, I would love to read it,
I would love to read it.
Also ibn al Umayr alayhi says,
Whoever
learns about
the names and attributes of Allah Subhanahu Wa
Ta'ala, and also what Allah aza wa jal
is capable of, the actions that Allah aza
wa jal has attributes to Himself,
you will surely
begin to love Allahu jala fee'u'llah, and there's
no two ways about that.
People always ask brothers and sisters,
I feel like I don't have that connection,
I don't you know have that love in
my heart for Allahu jala fee'u'llah.
And you can
have the acid test. You can put yourself
to the test brothers and sisters.
When it comes to a point where
I'm in between
what Allah is telling me, and what maybe
the shayateen are inviting me to, which is
it I give precedence to?
It may well be that you put Allah
to the side,
right? And you do that which your whims
and desires are calling you to.
And that is because my brothers and my
sisters,
right?
Allah Azza wa Jal is not glorified in
our hearts.
Right?
Ibn Uqayim Rahmatullahi aalahee says, Fatuhidu yaftahulillabdibaabal
khairi wassuroori
walladdati walfarahi waliptihaj Allahu Akbar. He says,
having knowledge of the tawhid,
It will open for the servant a door.
A door of goodness,
of happiness, of joy, of tasting sweetness SubhanAllah.
And that is because he learnt about Allahu
jalifei
Number 3, my brothers and my sisters,
You being ignorant of the correct aqeedah my
brothers and my sisters, could be the reason
why you end up worshiping nothing.
Look what
You know my brothers and my sisters, especially
with the time and age that we live
in. Right? There are so many different belief
systems that one could end up easily embracing.
There's a shaykh who is from the professors
of the University of Al Madina. His name
is the Sheikh Abdul Qadir Aqah.
He said
and he put it down so nicely.
The whole world today has become like a
small little village.
With the spread of social media, he said
once upon a time, we would instruct
the teachers and the professors
not to
go into certain
innovative practices and shirkiat.
Acts of shirk.
They would tell them you don't need to
go into this, so you don't need to
go into that. Just stick to some of
these points. Don't expose the student to that
which he would probably
never ever run into.
He goes them days are over. You know
why?
You have the World Wide Web, and for
those who didn't know what ww.stands
for, it stands for the World Wide Web.
Where you are exposed to everything,
sahih, is just the fingertip away.
And there are so many different corrupted
ideologies
that one could easily run into. Sahih.
So now, you may end up embracing a
particular belief system my brothers and my sisters,
where you end up likening Allah Azawaja to
his creation.
And this is a problem.
This is why Ibrahim is saying,
The one who likens Allah to the creation,
in essence, he's actually worshiping an idol. Because
the mushrikeen of Quraysh,
right?
How did they come up with these idols?
Because they thought to them, okay Allah looks
like this. Okay. Let me now put it
together, and that's my ilaha.
There are also my brothers and my sisters
ideologies out there,
which would now
remove Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala of his attributes.
If you now say that Allah aza wa
jal does not have any attributes, he is
not arraza,
he is not alfataah,
Right? He is not Ar Rahman, he has
no attributes whatsoever.
Tayb, what are you left with?
What are you left with?
Adam, nothing.
So this is the point that, Ibrahim Uqayna
Muhammadunallaihi
here is making.
Depending on your belief my brothers and my
sisters,
you could end up worshiping a particular type
of God.
Due to what you believe about Allah Subhanahu
wa ta'ala.
That's why it's extremely, extremely important.
Right?
Number 4 my brothers and my sisters,
number 4
my brothers and my sisters is,
If you are someone my brothers and my
sisters who has many acts of worship,
however,
your aqeedah, your belief is all over the
place.
Will your righteous deeds, my brothers and my
sisters, come to your rescue?
Let's be honest here.
Abdulai ibn Umar, radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu Ma, you
know what he said?
Have you guys heard of the Mount of
Uhud? The mountain of Uhud?
It might take 4 5 hours to climb
brothers and sisters.
I've never climbed it. Whenever I look at
it I was like, this is not for
me.
He swears by the one
whom my soul is in his hand.
If you had
like the mountain of Uhud in
gold,
it's big
and then you gave that in charity,
You gave that in charity.
Allah will not accept it from you until
you believe in al qadr,
which is the pre ordained decree.
The issue of al qadr, the preordained decree
or the law of evil is something that
comes under the issues of al qadr.
The issue that many atheists have have. And
we addressed it today in the Khutba.
Right?
If your aqir is out of place, you
could be doing all of these righteous deeds,
ibn Umar is saying, you spend that much
in charity will not be accepted from you
until you believe in the Qadr.
Also Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala,
after mentioning all of the Prophets in Surat
Al Anam I believe,
Allah said,
If all of these Prophets
All of these Prophets
committed shirk,
everything they came with would become what? Fruitless.
It will not be accepted from them. Allah
is saying this about the Prophets.
So
the aqeeda my brothers and my sisters is
extremely extremely important. It goes a very long
way of what is accepted from you on
your malqiyam.
Number 5 my brothers and my sisters,
one's aqeed and not being in line
with the understanding of the 3 golden generations
could lead to one
leaving the fold of the sunnah.
Have you guys heard of the hadith of
the Muslim Ummah splitting into 73, the Jews
they split into 71 *, and then you
have the nasaara, the Christians in 72,
and then
my ummah was split into 73, sahay.
The Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam was asked
who are those who are saved?
He said,
that which I am upon today and also
my companions.
So if your belief, if your actions, if
your statements are not in line with what
they came with, we have a problem brothers
and sisters.
We may well become part of
the harika. The group that is what? Going
to be entering into the hellfire.
Right? And we ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
to allow us to be from the safe
sect.
Sometimes, and I have to point this out
guys, right? You start selling a little bit
of aqeedah, a little bit of tawhid, you
start walking around as if you have a
green card to enter into a jannah.
You start becoming extremely complacent.
This is extremely rampant.
Amongst
those who might claim I am upon the
way of the Quran and the sunnah and
the way of the salif.
Rather the way of, and when we say
salif, I mean by the 3 golden generations,
not people who are walking on the face
of this earth today.
Who have tarnished the image of what salif
actually means.
All of us here we are trying to
follow the Quran,
sunnah, and the understanding of who? Abu Tamia?
My dad, my uncle,
my Sheikh, Laaykhwan.
The understanding of the 3 Golden Generations, the
Sahaba, the Tabi, and that's better Tabi.
We try and even then we beg Allah,
You Allah,
accept from us.
We as believers, and this is from the
characteristics of the awliya, the Saints, the beloved
servants of Allah Azzawajal. As Imam al Siradhi
mentions,
The way of the saints and the righteous,
the beloved servants of Allah is that they
structure their journey to Allah azza wa jal
between two things.
Fear and hope.
We do that which is right, but that
doesn't
give you a green card now that you're
enter into jannah, where you start looking down
at everyone,
thinking I am upon the way of the
companions, in the tabi'in, that's ba'r tabi'in. I
am safe,
la wallah.
How many people brothers and sisters they fell
off?
When they were rough and tough with the
people.
Right?
So this is why my brothers and mothers,
this 5th point is that our aqeed has
to be in line with the understanding of
the 3 golden generations.
Right?
That's what we have to strive towards, and
even then when we think we got it
right, we have to beg Allah, you Allah
accept it from us. Ibrahim alaihis salatu wasalam
begged Allah
to accept from him
after having constructed the kaaba.
The kaaba guys,
whenever Sheikh Bimbaaz rhamatulahi alaihi would come across
this verse,
As they are building the kaaba,
this is the kaaba guys.
Prophet Ibrahim was selected
amongst
the prophets to build the kaaba.
This is not
constructing any masjid guys, this is the kaaba.
Under the scorching heat,
Sheikh Mimbaaz would cry.
Why would he cry?
After constructing the kaaba he says,
Oh Allah accept it from us.
He was chosen out of everyone.
A very specific ad, Yeah Allah accepted from
us.
Indeed you are all hearing, and all knowing.
This is how we should be brothers and
not becoming complacent, or thinking we got a
green card to enter into jannah.
I'm notayeem Rahmatullahi alaihi under this very important
point he says,
Whoever thinks that he can follow the Quran
and the sunnah
without
without
following the way of the companions. You have
to always ask yourself,
I am doing this act. Did the companions
do it in that particular way?
You gotta play it safe brother and sisters.
They done it like that, I'm gonna do
it like that. They said this, I'm gonna
say this as well.
Right? Whoever thinks that he doesn't need their
way, this person will become from the people
of innovation and also misguidance.
Number 6 my brothers and my sisters,
the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam,
and also those who preceded us,
they would get really really angry
when seeing that
the correct belief has been opposed.
If that's the case my brothers and masters,
how can we take the issue of al
aqid lightly?
And I want to quickly mention something. When
it comes to fiqh,
is there differences of opinion
in fiqh?
Are there more differences of opinion or more
that which has been agreed upon?
Inal fiqh.
There are more differences of opinion in alfirk,
than there is that which the scholars have
agreed on. However, when it comes to aqeedah
my brothers and my sisters,
sometimes you hear somebody saying, Oh, wallahi,
aqeedah,
scholars they differed.
No, brothers and sisters.
Right?
The usool, the fundamentals of aqeed have been
agreed upon. However, there are certain issues that
stem off from
the fundamentals of the aqeedah that may have
been differ upon. So the asl is that
it is agreed upon, and there are some
things that have been differ upon,
that stem off from the usool,
the fundamentals of the akhida.
Right?
So you may ask yourself the question, why
should one get upset? Why shouldn't he just
overlook?
People
may be opposing him in
the correct belief that one should have.
Look at the Prophet
he says, Kharaj Rasool
Allah
Alaihi
Wasallam
came out and we were arguing about Al
Qadr.
What does Al Qadr mean? The preordained decree.
Right. You always hear right, Adarullah.
Someone passes away,
or something happens to you that brings you
a lot of sadness and misery, and someone
says Qadr Allah, Allah decreed it right? None.
Abu Hurairah,
Abu Hurairah said the messenger sunnahayasam came out
while we were arguing about an issue of
aqeedah.
He became so angry
up until his face became red.
The messian sallallahu alaihi wa sallam is becoming
angry brothers and sisters because of the aqeedah
being deferred upon.
And then He said to us, Abihadha Umertum,
is this what you have been commanded with?
Abihadha Ursilto Alaykum, Oh, is this why I
was sent to you?
The people before you, they were destroyed,
that's because they started
arguing on issues like this, on issues of
aqeedah.
Right?
This is why my brothers and my sisters,
we all have to strive hard to correct
that which is correct.
We have to correct that which is correct,
I. E. The aqeeda sahiha.
Also the hadith that I mentioned to you
guys earlier about Abdullah ibn Umar.
Right?
Abdullah ibn Umar,
when he said that statement, if you were
to have a mountain of gold,
that you then give in charity,
It won't be accepted from you until?
You believe in theqadr. Right? This has a
context.
One time, Abdul Rahman al Himiri, and also
Yahya ibn Uyamar,
they went to Umrah,
and in some narrations says they went for
Hajj. And when they went, they were looking
for a scholar from amongst the companions
to ask these questions to. If anyone gets
tired just stand up, stay standing up and
then sit back down. Okay?
Don't worry guys, we do this in the
Prophet Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam's masjid. When Shaikh
Khalil al Uthaymi comes and he teaches us
how many books? Naam.
I believe it's 18 books in 8 days,
or 9 days, and get very very tiring.
We will sit from aft fajr, mashAllah, a
couple of really stirruf.
Keep standing up guys.
The class starts after fajr
around what, 5 AM, all the way up
until 9 AM.
And then everybody would go home,
sleep, and they would come back at 3
PM Assar time, And then from 3 pm
all the way till
10 pm.
We're just going through books.
One after the other, can get very very
tiring.
Right?
Feet get wobbly,
pins and needles.
So stand up InshaAllah, ta'ala. The students will
stand up, and then whenever they feel good
again, and they will go and sit back
down. Insha Allahu, we're gonna have a break
anyway. We're going to have a break shortly
anyway insha Allahu Ta'ala for Isha prayer, and
then we will quickly go through the 4
principles, bienni Allahu Ta'ala.
No.
So going back to the incident I was
speaking about,
them 2 went to Abdullah ibn Umar and
they said,
Indeed there is a group of people that
have appeared
and they came with his belief, subhanAllah, in
his time.
They came with this belief that Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala
doesn't know
that something is going to happen until it
happens.
So Allah didn't know that I dropped this
up until I dropped it.
According to those who appeared in the time
of Abdullah ibn Umar radiAllahu anhu.
Abdullah ibn Umar became furious guys. He said,
Tell them that I am free from them,
and they are free from me.
And then he said this statement, If you
were to have a mountain of gold, you
would then spend it for the sake of
Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala in charity, it won't
be accepted from you until you believe in
the qadr, and that is just one belief.
And the final point my brothers and my
sisters that I have written down,
with regards to the importance of the aqeedah.
I'm mentioning all of these points my brothers
and my sisters, hoping,
right, to implant within you the importance of
learning
about my deen,
about that which my religion stands on.
This is what is going to get us
to aljannah, my brothers and my sisters. We
rectify the belief, everything else will follow.
Right?
Number 7. Right? Took 6.
Point number 6 was
that
the prophet shalallahu alaihi wa sallam and those
who came after, they used to become infuriated
when the aqeedah was opposed.
However, I must say guys,
good that you stopped me there.
You're gonna see a lot of things taking
place in front of you. What are you
gonna start doing now guys?
You're gonna start walking around,
blasting everyone,
getting angry at your relatives because he said
something that doesn't fall in line with what
you studied. Brothers
and sisters,
at times it is our bad manners that
chases people away.
We are living in a time and age
my brothers and my sisters,
we have to expect
our relatives to wake up one day and
he will say, I don't even believe in
Allah no more.
We have to expect it.
How are you going to respond?
How are you going to deal with the
situation, brothers and sisters?
Firaoun, you guys heard of firaoun?
Firaoun, the one who claimed, anarabukhuumu
a'ala, I am your Lord the Most High.
Do you know anyone in your family, or
your relatives, or your neighbors that has ever
claimed I am your Lord the Most High?
Does anyone know that?
Taib.
Having said that,
he also said, Ma'alim tulakumina ilahain raili. I
haven't come to know of a God other
than me.
This is what he's claiming this man. Even
then,
Allah instructed
Musa and Harun to go to Firaun and
speak to him in which way?
Start knifing him
up. Start dealing with him in a harsh
way guys.
Speak to Him in a gentle soft manner.
Smile guys,
when you talk to your family members.
If you have the proofs and evidences, why
do you get angry? Imam al Shafi'i, he
would overpower his opponents with a smile.
There was a debate that took place a
very long time ago, right? Everyone's like why
is Abu Tamia smiling?
Because I'm a happy guy.
I'm smiling at the opponent. Right?
Smile, you don't need to get upset. Why
do you get angry for? You don't need
to.
So speak to the people around you in
a soft and gentle manner.
The scholars they would say, if Allah,
if Allah
told Musa and Harun
to speak in a gentle manner with someone
who said, Ana rabaqumullah
Allah, then how about the person
who says in his sujood, subhanahrabhu
Allah.
How about the person who is saying Subhanah
Rabiya Allah in Isujood, guys?
Be gentle,
be calm and collective.
Don't be the reason why you push people
away.
Right? The fact that a Prophet used to
get annoyed and irritate, yes.
However,
It should of course move you.
Right? Many people became moved
when they saw them little kids being victimized
like the way they did.
It moved them. And this shows, right? That
they're still good within you, the fact that
this was something that really really struck you.
Right?
And this again shows us why we need
to go back to the Akhida and learn
about it and so on and so forth.
Right?
And last but not least my brothers and
my sisters, the 7th point I have here
is,
it is something that is very well known
and established that the people of knowledge in
every time and age
would would clarify
the state of the people of shirk
and those who were tarnishing
the image of Al Islam
by bringing in newly invented practices.
Just so the religion can remain preserved.
It was something that is very well established,
guys.
You know my brothers and Muslims, let me
ask you guys a question. Right?
I know a lot of us we want
to become parents.
Are you guys married?
Allahu
Alam.
You want to get married, and then you
wanna have kids.
If somebody came up to you and he
said, your son is hanging around with a
drug dealer.
This person who told you, how are you
going to deal with him?
You will say, zakalakha, thank you, may Allah
bless you, kiss him on the forehead.
He's giving you the heads up.
Your son now may end up taking a
very bad path.
Sahih? Why is it that at times you
might get upset when someone comes up to
you and he says, listen,
so and so is doing this shirki practice
or he's doing this innovative practice, be careful.
Which one is worse?
The one who warned you about that drug
dealer who's corrupting your child or the one
who
is warning you
about
your child now
being ideologically
attacked.
You know what I've noticed over the years
guys, when you refute feminism,
you debunk the doubts of the atheists, everybody
loves you.
Also that which is extremely colorful,
Get a lot of messages, oh, keep going.
But subhanAllah, brother and sister at times, when
we clarify
that which is tarnishing now the sunnah of
the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, people get
upset. Why?
Of course it has to be done with
hikmah,
and not everyone, and this is very very
important guys, right? Not everyone should just be
coming out, and speaking about everyone and anything
that you come across la.
This requires a lot of hikma. Ibru Qaymi
said, hikma is
It is to do,
that which is what correct?
Or that which is appropriate?
In a manner that is appropriate, and in
a time that is appropriate.
At times you may come out publicly, and
you start saying things, and you end up
destroying more than that which you rectify.
Right.
This is part of our religion.
Clarifying,
right? And analyzing
mainstream mistakes.
It's extremely extremely important.
Right? This is why subhanAllah,
the likes of
ibn Uthayi Muhammadullah alaihi would say the following,
If someone now is tarnishing the religion,
innovating
newly invented matters,
then it is a must that this is
clarified,
but it has to be done in the
proper way, and a lot of people don't
know how to do it in a proper
way guys.
And then look what he says,
aavamoomindafisharriqaaatiitariq.
Repelling this person's evil is more important,
than repelling
the evil of the highway bandit.
Right. Fahadu Amrul Maheem brothers and sisters.
Right. Otherwise like I said before, our religion
will become like the religion of the Christians.
And by the way guys I'm just quoting,
yeah. I'm just quoting.
I don't express my own views and opinions
as I always say.
You know why a lot of them now
are losing trust in priests? Because some of
them are coming out gay.
The script just says one thing, and then
the priest is coming out gay.
May Allah protect us from this. Imagine the
khatib, right? That gives a khutba here.
For some reason or the other, tomorrow decided
to
change his gender.
How would the people look at him?
The scripture is saying something, and then he's
coming out with something else. And they're trying
to make this now inclusive part of Christianity.
And that it's what? Extremely tolerant and whatever,
the scripture says something, brother.
If you wanna do something, don't try to
now
tarnish the scripture.
And this is why subhanAllah Christianity has become
whatever it became.
Many people just went quiet, they wouldn't say
anything, let them do whatever you want, where
just people are, come,
Sunday
morning.
Everybody attend, it's all love,
and affection.
When you are people of principle,
you will be respected by the people. Take
that as a principle. What I wanted to
really establish was
the importance of aqeedah.
Sometimes knowing the importance of something,
right? It gives you a very good idea
as to why you're doing whatever you're doing,
or why you're studying whatever you're studying.
Did everybody get that?
Are you appreciating akhid a little bit more
now guys? And at Tawhid
Jazakumullah
khayran.
