00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			Whoever is not well mannered
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:05
			in his relationship with Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:08
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala will patch him up,
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:10
			will deal with him under the earth.
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:12
			2 traits
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			that Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala truly loves.
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:19
			Messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said to Ashaj
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:19
			Abdul Qais
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:28
			Indeed you, O Ashaj,
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:30
			you have 2 traits
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			that Allah
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			truly loves.
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:39
			So what are these 2
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:41
			beautiful traits that Allah
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:43
			loves?
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:45
			First one is al hilm.
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:48
			It is
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			It is to have control
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:54
			over yourself
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:56
			when you become infuriated
		
00:00:58 --> 00:00:59
			When you are angered,
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:01
			you're not quick to punish.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:04
			That reminds me of a hadith when the
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:06
			messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said,
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:26
			Whoever holds back his anger even though he's
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28
			able to let it all out
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:34
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will call him out
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			in front of everyone on the day of
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:38
			judgment,
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			and he will give him the opportunity
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:44
			to choose from whoever he wants from the
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:45
			women of Al Jannah.
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:48
			So holding yourself,
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			controlling it
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:51
			is al Hill
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			Sometimes we become very very infuriated and we
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56
			say things that we
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			end up regretting later on.
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:02
			Second thing my brothers and my sisters is
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:03
			Al Anah.
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			Al Anah my brothers and my sisters is
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:07
			to take things slowly,
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:09
			to think about the decisions that we make.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			Not to rush
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:15
			and to jump on something that we have
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:16
			had.
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:20
			This brings me to a point, and that
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:21
			is
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:22
			something that
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			mentioned.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:28
			He said,
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			Do not be individuals who are hasty,
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:42
			who rush to doing everything that they
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:43
			hear about.
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:46
			Do not be madaiyah.
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:48
			What does madaiyah mean?
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			The moment they hear about something, they begin
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:53
			to announce it.
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:57
			And this could be anything related to public
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:58
			safety and public fear.
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:02
			Abdullahi Mas'ud is saying do not be hasty,
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:03
			do not rush,
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:07
			do not be madaiyah, people who announce these
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:07
			things,
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:11
			that sometimes it might require an old head,
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:12
			somebody with wisdom,
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16
			someone who has a lot of experience to
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:17
			maybe
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:18
			deal with.
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:21
			And then he said
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:25
			do not be individuals who, when they're told
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:26
			a secret, they go and spread it to
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:27
			others,
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:30
			but rather think about your decisions.
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:33
			And we've all had our regrets
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:35
			of having made decisions very very quickly
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:39
			that maybe thinking back on we wish we
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:39
			didn't
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:42
			and the Messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam told
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:43
			us
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:48
			Hastiness is from the shaitan
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:50
			and an
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:52
			ana is from Allah Subhanahu
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:54
			Wa Ta'ala.
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:56
			My brothers and my sisters,
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			and we tend to see this all the
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:00
			time on social media,
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:02
			We tend to jump
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:06
			on any one-sided claim that is made,
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:09
			and the Sharia is so beautiful and it's
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:10
			so fair.
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:14
			Look what the Messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam taught
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:15
			Alib Nabi Talib.
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:23
			If they if 2 people come to and
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:24
			they seek your judgement,
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:27
			do not rush to taking any of their
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:28
			sides.
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:32
			And if you learn not to do so,
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:36
			you will know
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:38
			how to judge accordingly. So Ali ibn Abi
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:40
			Talibi said I
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:45
			remain judging in such a way. There's always
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:47
			two sides to a story,
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:49
			and sometimes emotion
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:52
			overtakes us.
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:53
			We hear something
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:57
			and it hits us really hard,
		
00:04:58 --> 00:05:01
			but we forget that there's always two sides
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:03
			to a story. Even if that individual is
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:06
			somebody who you truly love, there's always two
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:07
			sides to a story. I remember my dad
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:09
			said to me many many years ago,
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:11
			when I was young.
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:14
			He said, if somebody comes to you and
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:15
			his eye is poking out
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:18
			and he's covered with blood, do not rush
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:19
			to taking
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:21
			his side. Because you don't know.
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:24
			It could have been him who had that
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:24
			last blow
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:26
			in having killed somebody.
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:31
			Before he turned out in such a way,
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:33
			he could have just murdered somebody,
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:36
			even though he has blood covered
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:38
			on him.
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:41
			It's important to take things easy. The prophet
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:42
			also told us
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:54
			If everybody was to be given,
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:57
			everything that they claimed,
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00
			they would claim the wealth of others and
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:01
			the lives of others.
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:04
			So and so took my money. They was
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:06
			the proof. This is why the prophet said
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:09
			The one who makes the claim he has
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:11
			to bring forth proof.
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:13
			And last but not least the hadith of
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:14
			Abdulai ibn Zubair
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:15
			he said
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:22
			Muhammad decreed that
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:25
			the defendant and the claimant they both have
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:26
			to go and sit in front of the
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:27
			judge.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:32
			So both sides are heard out fairly and
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:32
			justly,
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:36
			because there's always two sides to a story.
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:38
			My brothers and my sisters,
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:39
			this is the end
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:41
			of our series.
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:44
			There's so many more etiquettes
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:47
			and bad traits that I wanted to mention,
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:52
			But because of time, because of resources and
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:53
			things like that,
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:55
			we can't go through all of that.
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:58
			But what I can advise you with, if
		
00:06:58 --> 00:07:00
			this really interested you, is to go on
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:02
			to the knowledge college
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:04
			portal and sign
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:06
			up, where you can go through a whole
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:06
			poetry
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:10
			that I explained called mandoma to ahsanil akhlaq,
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:13
			the poetry of the best of etiquettes,
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:17
			where maybe over 50 traits were mentioned
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:18
			that could, insha'Allah,
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:20
			my brothers and my sisters,
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:22
			really
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:24
			improve us as Muslims
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:26
			and you can access this insha'Allah
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:28
			in the link below.
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:31
			May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala adorn us all
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:33
			with the best of etiquettes.
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:44
			Prophet Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam used to
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:47
			say, oh Allah grant our souls a taqwa
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:50
			purified indeed you are the best of those
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:51
			who purify.
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:53
			You are His protector and You are His
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:53
			guardian.
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:56
			He also used to make the dua Allahumma
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:58
			kamaa hasanta khanki
		
00:07:58 --> 00:07:59
			fahhasin khuluqi
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:02
			Oh Allah, just as you perfected my outer
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:02
			appearance,
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:04
			then also
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:05
			perfect
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:09
			my etiquettes. If this is the Messenger Sallallahu
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:10
			Alaihi Wasallam saying this,
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:13
			the one who Allah said in Suratul Qalam
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:18
			You, oh Muhammad, you have the best of
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:18
			characteristics,
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:20
			the best of manners.
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:23
			And where do me and you lie?
