Assafan, inshaAllah ta'ala. Today, we'll be going through
the masajid,
the matters pertaining al Qadr, which is a
very very important matter,
which is from the matters of our religion
that a person,
he has to believe in, in order to
have an iman. It is part of a
iman.
Most of us have gone through the Hadith
Hadith Jibreel, also known as the Hadith of
Prophet
where the prophet
is that person he believes in Allah Subhanahu
Wa
Ta'ala.
Also the angels.
The books.
And also
the day of resurrection,
the day of judgment,
and also to believe in the other,
the good of it and also the bad
of it. If a person doesn't believe in
any of these matters, then this person leaves
the fold of Islam.
This person needs the fold of Islam.
Our talisman
is not present
if he doesn't believe in any of these
matters.
Whoever disbelieves in a demon,
then this person's actions
will become fruitless.
This person's action will become fruitless, and on
your
will be from the Hasidid.
Those
who are at major lows.
So any matters of these matters that we
just mentioned, the 6 pillars of an iman,
if one doesn't believe in any of them,
he leaves the hold of Islam.
And he can also go under
the ayat where it talks about juhud
negating
because it clearly comes in the Quran
where
Allah clearly states in the Quran about the
having
a presence in a religion.
He has a other. So
all these ayats which talk about the other,
it clearly comes in the Quran. So if
a person now doesn't believe in the he
falls under
negating
some verses and also some aspects in religion.
So before I move on to it, I
would just like to mention
that these are the matters of the These
are the matters of the unseen. That the
Bani Adam, the son of Adam, he doesn't
have any
he doesn't have
any browsing to it. He's not able to
see it. He's not able to feel it
Rather they're from the matters
that are from the unseen. And it's upon
a person to believe in these matters. Surat
Al Baqarah, he talks about those
believe in the unseen, those that believe in
the unseen, they establish the prayer, they also
they establish the zakat
These people are upon guidance and they are
from those who are successful.
So it's a sign of success.
It's a sign of success that a person,
he believes in these matters
and he has faith
in all of these matters dimension.
So
mentioned the 4 main aspects of our Qadr.
I shed some light on it last week.
I shed some light on it last week.
The 4 matters of our Qadr can anyone
mention those that attended last week?
The 4 matters of our other that we
spoke about in summarization and today,
I will go to in detail, and I
will try to explain it with many, many
ayaat, a hadith, how the understood these matters,
and also matters
where it relates to us directly.
Matters where it relates to us directly,
evil taking place in front of us,
women dying, children dying. How do we handle
these things? Do we say the same thing
that Stephen Fry and his followers, they say
that
if Allah
was actually here, if there was a presence
of Allah
then why is all of these things taking
place? Why is he not stopping it? Now
all of this will become clear to us.
Some of the main doubts
that revolve
around these matters of Qadr, which are very,
very delicate. And I mentioned to our speakers
though that students of knowledge,
When it comes to this chapter, they tend
to what?
Jump over it or they tend to skip
it. Why? Because of this difficult,
because of this,
difficulty
and also because it is very very deep.
Namsa
by the end of this lesson, we hope
to have understood this chapter in detail
by also understanding the full extent of these
matters. So Husayn mentioned to me
the first matter
of.
The second matter was?
That every single thing is written down. Now
I'm the third thing,
brother.
Everything happens because Allah
The 4th thing?
One thing is that Allah has created everything
even the action of the creation. No.
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala has created everything even
the action of the
creation.
So the first matter is the
knowledge of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
That
Allah
knows that which took place in the past.
Allah
knows that which takes place before it takes
place, so that's the past.
Allah
knows that which is taking place,
Knows that which is taking place, and Allah
also knows that which is going to take
place.
And if something was going to take place,
how this would take place. So hypothetically speaking,
if something was going to take place, how
this will take place?
In the time of
this matter,
people negating the
As it came in the narration, the Sahih
Muslim.
So they said to themselves,
once we go at the Hajj,
if we run into any of the Sahaba,
we are going to ask them about this
matter.
So the first person they ran into was
Abu Waheb.
The first person they ran into was Abdullah
Iqdagama.
So they said to him,
this or this phrase
they believe, which means
that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala doesn't know
that wish takes place until after it takes
place.
So Allah
doesn't know that I'm going to drop this
cup until I actually drop it.
So Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala doesn't have previous
knowledge to it until it actually takes place.
What I'm going to say in 5 minutes,
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala doesn't know
until I actually say it or until the
occurrence actually takes place.
And what
they said to him also was that these
people they claim to pass you knowledge.
They will seek your knowledge, and at the
same time they claim what that Allah
doesn't know until the occurrence actually takes place.
So I'm gonna ask you what they say?
Tell these people
And then he mentioned what?
And then expressed by Allah
that if any of them or any of
you
had a mountain of in
gold,
The mountain of Usher is very very big
for those that have ever seen it. It
takes maybe 3, 4 hours to climb.
3, 4 hours to climb. And if you
want to maybe convert that into gold, it
would be maybe
100 of £1,000,000,000 of pounds in gold.
If he was to
now, convert the amount in a oil into
gold, it would approximately be that much in
pounds.
So, Al Quli, what did he say? If
any of you had a mountain of oil
in gold,
and he gave this in charity,
Allah
wouldn't have accepted anything from him
he is paying the 1,000,000,000 and 1,000,000,000 of
pounds in and
he fasts Siamun Dawood alaihisant wasalam, which is
the first one day and to break one
day, he is performing the best form of
rebadat.
But this aida is messed up, Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala doesn't accept anything from him.
So that proves to us what the importance
of our aida.
Is one aspect of our aida.
We mentioned 6
This is one aspect, if a person now
doesn't believe in this aspect of our father,
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala doesn't accept anything from
him. He's a kafir.
And this will also happen, you see. And
we mentioned before.
And now this believes in an iman. This
goes with every aspect of an imam.
So these importance are very, very important. If
a person our brothers pay attention here. If
a person
if a person was a, he was a
zani
committing fornication
Committing fornication, he has a girlfriend, he commits
fornication with her. He steals, he kills, he
does all the major sins.
But at the same time, this person's
is sound.
He doesn't have a mess
of He believes in that which he needs
to believe in.
We stop going having girlfriends
and, we steal and we kill and we
do the major sins.
Rather, complacency is something that they
But just to prove to you the importance
of akhida,
sooner or later this, this,
who's sitting, who has the major sins, sooner
or later, he will come on the fight
that goes in. And Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
he will also forgive him
because Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala forgives anything except
chauffeur and shirk.
Allah
says Allah
forgives everything other than shit.
So there's still a chance that a person
wants He's either forgiven
or he's punished and sooner or later he's
gonna come out.
At the same time, if we don't wanna
get complacent, I'll repeat that again. We don't
want a cloud on the top of our
heads that there's even a chance
that we are going to one touch the
fire.
Or accidentally fell into the fire. Now, and
how it actually feels.
One time, I accidentally pushed someone into the
barbecue.
It was an accident.
Of the fire
of the.
So if we now combat the fire in
this dunya, then how on earth do we
expect
that we're we're going to even come close
to burn the fire in the Astra? So
we wouldn't want this cloud on the top
of our heads.
So the whole point is, Abdullah
said what?
Said nothing would be accepted from him until
he has the correct
the correct
to believe in the
and
to believe in it, in its correct manner.
So the whole point is why the remission
of Surah Al Rahman?
About the and that these people, they what?
They negated that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala knew
before it took place.
So the past knowledge of Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala, they want, they negated it.
And do you not know that Allah
knows
that which is in the heavens and also
in the earth?
That which is in the heavens and also
what? In the earth.
Never when there are 3 people
speaking in secret, except Allah
is the 4th one. And when there's 4
people speaking in
secret, the 5th person is Allah
or the 5th one is Allah
So Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala knows everything that's
taking place.
And also in the future
and also in the future, Allah
knows every single thing that happens in this
universe, Allah knows.
Because
Allah is
what?
So what's the proof
now that Allah
knows that which is
which never took place, but if it was
going to take place, how this will take
place?
Hypothetically speaking.
Can anyone give me a proof from the
Quran
and the sunnah
that
Allah knows that which is going to take
place, if it was going to take place.
If something was going to take place, how
this would take place?
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala tells us in the
Quran
about the people of the fire.
Those people of the fire.
There will be people on your Montana.
They're standing in what? In front of the
fire.
They will stop becoming regretful
If only we can go back
And they've
committed
They've denied the ayat.
And they will say,
and we were going to be what? From
the believers.
Then Allah says,
Now it has become apparent to them that
which they used to do. It's because
everything he used to do will be put
in front of him.
And if they want to go back,
they will go back to that wish
they left off doing.
Are these people going to go back? And
are they going to be put back?
No. That's not something that's going to happen.
And then Allah says,
they
will go back to exactly
to that which they were doing.
So that shows you what?
That if these people who are begging Allah
who are begging Allah
for a second chance,
That even if they were now to go
back to this dunya, they would just carry
on that which they used to do in
the dunya. So that's something that is hypothetical.
And even
also knows this.
It's an example of clear progress.
So we mentioned 4 things. Allah
knows.
Allah
knows that which is going to take place.
And if something was going to take place,
how this will take place. And the last
thing that I just explained,
it is what explaining the
4th matter
in regards to
the
There's a hadith that experiences.
This
boy
that killed, He was from those that were
going to what? Become.
Who's the only one that knows this?
Allah
and Khidr
doesn't know.
The prophet told us
Had that boy lived
And he would have been on for it
and he would have, been,
he would have disbelieved them as a.
So the boy is dead now.
The fact that if he was going to
become this person, it's not something that is
going to take place. It's not something that's
going to take place.
And also knows already if he was going
to live, how this person will be.
So is the hypothetical
example clear?
Is clear.
So that's the first matter, The
second matter,
nothing takes place in this universe
except that it is written down.
The
prophet
Everything has been
preordained.
Everything has been written down.
Before, the heavens and the earth were created
by 50,000
years.
So the power is gonna happen.
All that's happened, it was written down 50
1000 years before Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala created
the heaven and
that when Allah
created the pen,
Allah
spoke to her pen. Allah created the pen,
write down
every single occurrence that's going to take place
until the day of judgment.
So every single thing has been written down.
So everything that's going to be taking place
until the end of time is written down.
In the lohulmihfud,
the reserved tablets.
It is all written down.
So it's okay. We got the first one.
Second one, every single thing that takes place
in this universe is written down.
The third thing
Your lord wills whatever he wants, and he
creates whatever he wants.
And he chooses whatever he wants.
He chooses that that person is rich. He
chooses that that person has has a kingdom.
He chooses that person to be a poor
person.
And it is all what that which Allah
decreed.
Muhammad, the Allah is married and moved,
owns the kingdom.
He gives whoever he was.
He gives the kingdom wherever he was,
and he takes away from whoever he was,
and he brings us, gives to whoever he
wants, and he humiliates whoever he wants.
So everything takes place
by the will of Allah.
And some of us might be thinking why
is all of these three things now
important to God which is relevant to all
of us?
And why is it so important in our
religion?
And
at the end of the
lecture, it's going to become very, very clear
as to why these matters are very, very
important and why many Muslims today
who don't understand this,
they are falling into what having doubts regarding
Allah
or saying things like,
why
is my kid like this, and why is
kid like this? Why is he and why
is my son?
Why is he righteous and why is he
what? Disobedient.
Why is my son a and why is
he a Muslim?
So to run away from these things and
to have the correct
is important that we learn our religion. To
have an understanding in our religion.
And that which is also understood for me
the
that Allah
doesn't want, and it could for me he
doesn't give you an understanding.
And it also shows what the
of Allah
So the 4th the
4th
pertaining
and also brothers, there's many many ayats in
the Quran. Many ayats in the Quran that
talk about what?
That is a bonus to affirm to Allah
is the Khalq. That Allah
has created everything.
He has created everything and also what?
Created the action of the creation.
So everything that the creation does, they have
been created by Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
Allah has created you, and what's that what
you do?
We just mentioned now what?
The Allah
has created what?
Everything
and also
the action of the creation.
Does that mean I am like a in
the middle of the wind?
What happens to a fella?
It goes wherever the wind states him.
Is it correct now for me to say
Allah created me and my actions,
and I don't have a choice?
If I commit, I say
Allah created me, I'm forced to do this,
like the say, and I'm a.
I am forced to convince
Sina. I am forced
to walk into that shop and steal the
chrome cocktail work as crazy.
I am forced to do this.
Why? Because Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala said,
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala said, Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala created me, created everything, and also that
we should do.
Learn for the creation
a will.
The creation also have a will.
The creation also have a will.
Allah says,
So have this single person as a mashiach.
And there's many many other like this as
well. As for this kind of statement,
I am doing this because what?
Allah
will for me to do this, and because
Allah created my actions, it is similar to
the statement of the
If it wasn't for us,
we and our forefathers, we wouldn't have committorship.
So they blame the other.
We're only committing shirk because Allah
will. And if Allah
never will, we wouldn't do this.
So a person has what? He has a
choice.
He has a choice
to what? Do whatever he wants.
Or some of the examples they bring is
what?
The relevant they bring when these people they
claim that a person doesn't have a will
as if he's a dead person
between the hands
of one washing him. Why am I a
dead person when he's being washed? You put
his hand up,
you drop it, his hand drops.
You put his leg up to wash it,
and he has no choice to do what
he has has got any choice to do
anything. Why? Because he's dead.
He's dead. He's dead person.
A dead person between the hands of a
guy that's washing him, he's dead person, has
absolutely no choice whatsoever.
Is that clear? Probably, is that clear? If
you don't need me to stop,
I can stop for a few moments, and,
anything that I just mentioned, I can clarify
even more.
Or
if you have any question, you can write
it down if anything pops to your mind
and we can discuss that at the end
inshallah.
So it's the kleh one.
It's clear. Yeah. Play.
He's been committing so much.
He steals. He looks
at.
All his life has been doing sin,
and he loses hope altogether.
He goes, halas,
my destination is clear to me. I have
been doing sin all my life. I am
heading towards what? Bafaya.
Also, this kalaam is kalaamunjahim.
It is a very, very ignorant statement.
Because how does this person know
that where he's ending up, where his destination
is?
Has he now seen the Qadr?
Or that which has been decreed for him?
Has he now had any information regarding
or where his destination is going to be?
Rama, the prophet
tells us that a person he might sin
and sin and sin,
And then at the end of his life,
he does
the
He does the righteous deeds, and then he
enters into the jannah.
The prophet
says what?
So he does what? The actions of the
people of Jannah.
And what happens then? He enters into the
Jannah.
So what does that show you?
That person, he might be sinning all his
life, but Allah
gives him Hidayah.
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala he what? Gives him
Hidayah, and then he does the actions of
the people of the Jannah, and he enters
into the Jannah.
Is that clear? So how can a person
now say hi from the people of the
fire, or hi from the people of the
jannah, whatever I'm doing is enough for me.
Rather, this is also what? Complacency.
That doesn't mean a person says,
I'm gonna chill all my life now, then
at the age of 60.
I'm gonna make tawba to Allah Subhanahu wa
ta'ala, since I'm
going to enter into the jannah. How do
you know you're gonna live?
We might step out of this misery and
die.
The prophet told
us,
The average lifespan of a person is between
6070.
And few are those that actually go past
60 or 70.
And none of us know what's gonna happen
even in the next 5 minutes.
I, you, we might lose breath what? Sitting
in this chair.
Nobody knows that which he's going to land
tomorrow or nobody knows in which place he's
going to die.
So how can I say that,
I'm going to be
going into the fire
or etcetera?
It's kind of important. It's a total incorrect
statement.
