This was meant to be the sheikh's lot,
the fajr reflections. Walaqin,
he insisted last night
that we,
share some
few words inshallah.
In the first araka, our brothers and sisters,
we spoke a little bit when we read
some of the verses in Surat
at Tawba,
where Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala made mention of
Masjid Al Dera'a.
A Masjid that was established in order to
disunite
and cause friction
within the ranks of the Muslims.
This project
or this plot was spearheaded
by an individual called Abu
Abu Amir al Rahib also known as Abu
Amir al Munafiq Awl Fasiq,
who
became a Christian in Jahiliya.
But when the Messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam came
to
Al Madinah,
he realized Well he saw
that which he was calling the people to
was falling on deaf ears,
and the people were becoming more inclined
to the messengers salallahu alaihi wa sallam and
his da'wah.
He decided to run away, and then instructed
for a masjid to be built.
And he said to his
companions
upon hypocrisy
and shirk
that he's going to go
to Isar,
he's going
to ready an army
and then this army will head towards Al
Madinah
and destroy Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam
and his companions.
So he was watching over this project of
this Masjid
being built
in order to split
the ranks of the Muslims as Allah Azzawajal
he mentioned.
It was that to disunite,
to cause disharmony,
to cause friction
between the
Muslims.
My topic brother and sisters isn't necessarily pertaining
to this.
Yesterday I gave a Khutta, I gave a
lecture in Halifax.
It was some of the characteristics
and traits of a high value man.
A term that is being thrown around
by a lot of youngsters today, simply because
of what
they have
consumed from the Internet.
You have individuals who are coming out speaking
to us about how to become real men.
This is a reaction to the feminist movement,
who have had a stronghold
on the community
and likewise the World Wide Web for a
very very long time.
And as Ibn Al Qayy
mentioned,
right?
When the sunnah becomes weak, the innovations will
start
becoming strong.
What is the context
of what I'm trying to say here?
Speaking about that, which was the truth, became
very very weak,
of how to actually be men,
there's even a statement I believe it was
Sheikh Al Bani who
said, when the Gaira, the protective
I'll say that again, when the protective jealousy,
the haira, died in men, the modesty
died within women.
Right?
So when holding on to the sunnah,
holding on to that which is correct, holding
on to that which is in the Quran,
diminished
the values and the morals that we should
have been holding on to
slowly died down, you will always find innovations
and that which leads you astray that will
what? Become strong.
It isn't necessarily that which relates to innovations
only.
You will always find the opposite.
So that died,
you find that the feminists,
they emerged
and they really, really
spewed a lot of their nonsense and rubbish
into society,
so much so that the men began to
be terrified of saying anything
Out of fear of being referred to as
misogynists.
People who are against women,
they became terrified.
So now as a response to that, you
find a new group that has emerged.
They are referred to or known as the
red pill movement.
Malasif Ishadeed.
Who are what?
The complete opposite,
reactional as a response to this movement that
has been
around for some time now.
And they spew a whole load of nonsense
as well.
That which is against the Sharia and
you'll always find this when we look at
the bid'ah of the murjiah,
you know, we hear this statement from time
to time, right?
When you try to advise somebody, don't judge
me, you don't always say my heart.
Someone might be
uttering statements of shirk and kufr
and you advise him, he says, Akhi, you
know,
Right?
This is even something that is quite prevalent
today.
You advise somebody, he's not doing this because
he's trying to defend or propagate innovations.
He's ignorant.
You try to advise him. He's committing all
sorts of filth and evil and sins. He
says, you don't know what's in my heart.
Right?
We don't just utter la ilaha illallah with
our tongues and believe it in our hearts.
It has to be followed up with actions.
Right? When you look at the concept of
Imaan,
There are 3 components,
belief in the heart, utterance
with the tongue and also
actions with the limnas, there has to be
all 3.
There are 3 components that must go hand
in hand with one another.
Right?
This is what started becoming
a norm,
right, at the time. This is an ancient
time, SubhanAllah.
And then who came out? The complete opposite,
which was the Khawarij.
Likewise, we see it today, you find that
the feminists were, of course, not upon the
correct path.
I don't know why Gerennis and some are
the feminists.
They are the ones who are controlling everything
now,
destroying households.
It started up with equal rights.
We have to be equal, and now she
wants more rights.
You have the complete opposite that is now
taking a stronghold, which is, of course, another
extreme
and as Ibn Qayyim and also Ignatemia and
I believe also Ibn Josi, they all mentioned
something that is similar.
Shaitan does not care
whether you go
right wing or left wing, whether you become
an extremist or you become a liberalist.
He does not care.
Normally when we speak about extremism,
the first thing that comes to mind is,
those who are Khawarij.
But also the opposite is true, and the
Shaytan doesn't care whether you water down the
religion, you dilute it or you go extreme.
He doesn't care, same to him.
Right? We made you a balanced nation in
the middle,
not Ifrat Wala Tafreet,
it has to be in the middle,
right? When this group emerged, you had a
whole load of Liberals,
those who dilute and water down the religion.
They come to text in the Quran,
and they say, Wallahi, this is not applicable
in today's day and age.
This is Khalas, too much, end of time.
Yeah?
Time is finished, 2022,
I like Gujira.
2,022,
right?
Wakhtiyana
kujarna, all of this is what? Expired.
Because of them running away from that extreme,
even if that is an extreme, not everything
that is done
on that side is always wrong. Of course,
we condemn it, we see it to be
wrong, but that doesn't mean you have to
leave off everything that is right as well.
We made your balanced nation.
So in these verses brothers and sisters, we
are given a characteristic and a trait of
real men.
What does
Allah say?
Don't stand in his Masajid
that have been built
to split the Muslims and to cause discord.
Don't ever stand in their
Muhammad. A Masjid has been built up on
taqwa.
As more foremost that you stand in it.
There are men in there.
They love
to purify themselves.
What kind of purification are we speaking about
here?
Smelling good? Yes, of course. But what is
the main thing
that we are
referring to here in this ayah?
To purify your heart
from all types of filth and evil.
Right? When you look at this movement that
has now emerged, there's a huge focus on
perfecting your outer body.
This is what is seen as masculine,
making sure you spend 8, 9 hours in
the gym so
that you look like Hulk Hogan.
This is what's being what venerated and glorified
That he is someone who's able to bench
press a 120 kilos.
8, 9 hours we might spend in the
gym, perfecting the outer appearance.
A
120
kilos, a 130 kilos is about to what?
Masha Allah Tabarakallah.
What about when it comes to the fajr
prayer?
The blanket is only 500 grams.
500 grams of wire or less than 1
kilo,
especially in the summer is much more, less
in weight.
Right?
There's a huge focus by this group on
your outer body.
If only we gave a fraction of that
to the heart,
and this is what ultimately matters, right?
Allah doesn't look at your outer appearance,
He doesn't look at how big, how skinny,
how black, how yellow, how white, how red
you are. Allah doesn't look at that.
What does he actually look at?
He looks at your heart
and also
In another hadith we are told
a big fat huge man will be brought
in
He won't weigh the weight of the wing
of a mosquito.
That's how huge he is, but he won't
weigh anything.
Right? Even though he's so enormous.
But then you have what Abdulai Mus'ud
who one time climbed on top of the
tree,
and then the wind came and exposed his
shins, so some of the companions they started
laughing,
They began to laugh. So the Prophet
asked, Why are you guys laughing? They said,
because of how thin his shins are. Prophet
said,
They are more heavy on the scale of
good deeds and uhud, just his shins,
just his shins.
So what is it that really matters?
Is it an individual's outer body,
8, 9 hours in a gym,
but we can't give a fraction of that
to the heart.
Right?
What is it that really matters is Allah
says,
Right?
The day when your wealth and your
children are not going to benefit you, except
the one who comes to Allah
or meets Allah with a qalb, with a
heart that is what? Sadim sound.
It is pure from
from and also Maasi.
That which is going to what? Darken the
heart. This is where he needs to worry
about cleansing from his heart. And by the
way brothers, I don't have anything against anyone
who goes to the gym.
You can go to the gym,
right? And you can work out, or I
can even reach is a point now where,
and you forget about the most important thing
which is your actions of the heart.
Your heart becomes so tarnished, and we know
as the Messenger
said,
In your body there's a piece of flesh,
if that becomes,
If that becomes scrubbed, everything else becomes scrubbed.
When your heart becomes scrubbed, you will see
it professing on your limbs, which is very
well known.
If that becomes rectified,
everything else will follow. It all starts with
the heart.
It all starts with the heart.
That's why even Sheikh Usam Taymiyyah says,
You will barely find
an individual who has embraced corrupt beliefs,
except that it will start to show on
his limbs.
Right? When you look at any
misguidance that an individual is upon, it all
started with the heart.
Even when you look at the feminist now,
right?
When you look at the feminist, it started
with the belief, and then it started professing
on the tongue. So much so she starts
to question,
this is not fair,
The ratio of 2 to 1, this is
not fair, this is unjust.
Right?
Contesting why Allah sadly
2 for the boy and then one for
the girl. This is not fair
because it started with what? A belief,
the heart embraced a doubt that she became
exposed to, and then started what? Following up
with actions on the tongue and the limbs.
Like in Badr ibn Khalb, he started with
the heart.
And that's with every misguides, even the atheist.
Right? The belief settled in his heart and
then he
started showing it on his limbs, but it
all starts with the heart.
Right. Even when you look at the Russia
now, that are fighting with Ukraine,
it all started with the belief, we have
the belief that we have to do this.
If we don't do this, sasala,
this will happen. And then that's why they
took the gun and they started fighting,
but it all started with the belief.
The whole world,
brothers and sisters,
is run by what an individual believes, that's
why they do stuff, and that's why things
happen, because of a belief.
Israel doesn't do what they do except because
of a belief.
China doesn't do what it does except, due
to a belief that they have, and then
it's followed up on the limbs.
And what settles an individual's heart is extremely,
extremely important that it is rectified.
Otherwise,
You will see all sorts of corruptions becoming
extremely, extremely
widespread.
Right? So we are told, brothers and sisters,
in this
there are men.
They rectify their hearts.
Right?
Which leads then to a rectification
of one's actions and that which he utters
with his tongue.
And I'll conclude with this one point.
Right?
It's being seen as something masculine to swear
constantly on your tongue.
Isn't that so?
That you're seen as masculine,
that we speak like
AT.
Not that guy, Abutaimir, that's what AT stands
for.
But this other guy that has emerged, that
has the same initials, 80.
Every other word that comes out of his
mouth is an f word.
Every other word,
And they see this as something that is
what masculine,
to swear a lot that makes you look
like a man.
This is not rectification of the tongue. Messenger
sallallahu alaihi wasallam, he said,
The believer is not someone who insults all
the time, or curses all the time,
When Al Fih is someone who speaks in
a vulgar way,
this is not the way of the believer,
this is not being masculine,
If anything you're dropping in the eyes of
Allah
and slowly removing yourself from the realm of
believers.
It's not something masculine,
it's not something to be actually be proud
of,
you are just killing your heart by speaking
like that.
Right?
And what ultimately matters is what Allah
thinks of you.
Not what these individuals now have propagated into
republic.
May
Allah guide our shabab.
And for all the elders who don't know
what I'm speaking about,
11,000,000,000
views on TikTok.
11,000,000,000 views this guy has on TikTok. Just
the other day, I was checking some of
the posts on Twitter.
Everyone's watching him, Muslim and non Muslim.
Hadid, there's a video that went round, Nin
Uluw Adiyyih, somebody was asked, Who is your
role model? He said, Of course the Prophet
And then he says, Also Ninkan
Right? He's also mentioning the Prophet
in the same breath as
Mahl Asaf,
that everybody's watching him, and they're taking him
as a role model as how to become
a man.
And what his
ideology, should I say, right, is built on,
is men should go and commit
He says it is haram for a woman
He says it's haram for a woman to
sleep around to commit but
it's okay for men, it's good.
And men are watching it, thinking, yeah.
Speaking about working out and just, you know,
when it comes to money, how to make
money? But it involves all types of filth
and evil and whatever have you.
This is what the shabaab are looking at,
and so
glued to.
On every platform, YouTube this guy took over.
He has taken the internet by storm.
Maybe one day we'll do a lecture on
the sifat of Rujula,
how to be a
man.
From our
Sheikh gave me this opportunity.
For that wonderful,
talk. Yes. That's an that's,
I would tell you.
We're looking forward to seeing you later on
as well
after today.
Let us show our love
to is
number 1 today.
