Abu Taymiyyah – Part 7 UsoolusSunnah of Imam AlHumaydi

So the whole point is, brothers, that sometimes

you find this.

Sometimes you find

that

something is negating in totality because the person

he has not been complete.

Or sometimes something is ascribed to him in

totality because he's excessively doing something.

Like the hadith

of Abu Sufyan.

He doesn't take the stuff of his neck

or his shoulders.

He used to be excessive in hitting his

wife, so he was ascribed to him in

totality.

He doesn't take the stick of his shoulders

because he used to do something excessively.

Is that is that clear for him? Is

it clear? Yeah? We move on now to

when Imam

Al Khomeini mentions,

Speech

is no benefit if it is not connected

with an action.

Someone saying,

do this, pray,

fast,

do all these actions and at the same

time he doesn't

act upon it. And

defend this kind of people.

Oh,

why do you say that which you don't

do?

Then Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, says,

That which is most hated

by Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, is that you

say that which you don't do.

So it is something that

is shameful,

and Allah defend these people that say don't

drink, at the same time he drinks. He

tells his kids don't smoke, and at the

same time he's smoking himself.

Do you, all that I command the people

to do piety, to be pious,

but you forget your souls?

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, he tells

these people.

There will come a person.

There will come a person. He'll be running

around in circles just like a donkey.

So the people of the fire will come

up to this person.

Look at his answer.

I used to enjoy the good, tell the

people to do good, but at the same

time, never used to do it myself.

I used to tell the people, don't smoke,

don't do evil,

don't do this, don't do that, but at

the same time, I used to go and

do it.

These kind of people

are defending by Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala's messenger.

And it's

is a very severe punishment on Omar Adriana.

And this is what

an important

reminder for any person that gives Dawah, or

any person that speaks.

Tells the people to do good, and at

the same time, he doesn't do himself.

Because we don't wanna come and go on

the AMA, and we used to tell the

people do this and do that, and we're

running around like a donkey

in the fire.

And the people we used to tell to

do good, I'll come in and ask them

these questions.

And no action or speech

is accepted except if it is connected to

the intention.

And we mentioned this in the 1st week.

No matter what a person says or no

matter what a person does, if it is

not connected to the correct intention, he is

getting nothing.

The hadith that we've heard a 1000000000 times,

I'm gonna mention it again for the 1000000000

of months time.

No action is accepted except with the correct

intention.

If I'm attending here today

because I want to show up or because

I am forced or because people are gonna

look down at me, I am getting absolutely

nothing.

And whoever wants to maybe have more insight

in regards to our topic,

in the first chapter that we talked, when

we was explaining some of the etiquettes

of seeking knowledge in the first video, it's

available online.

Now, we mentioned many, many hadith

that if a person connects it with the

correct intention,

he either gets rewarded or he gets nothing.

Even that which you put in your wife's

mouth.

As long as you buy the food because

you wanna please Allah.

You wanna buy the drink, you wanna buy

the house stock because you wanna please Allah.

You get rewarded.

How much of the reward goes past us

day and night?

We might do it because we have to

do it, not because Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

wants us to do it.

And also Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala mentions

There is no good in a lot of

the things that the people do,

except

the one that commands and enjoys the people

to do or to pay the sadaqah,

or he tries to rectify the matters between

the people,

or he does any good.

Look at whoever does that whoever does that,

he's trying to seek the satisfaction of his

lord. And this person will give him a

great reward. So if you're trying to rectify

between 2 people because you know you know

you're gonna get a little patient out of

it, you'll get nothing.

Or you're trying to do good in order

for what?

For some dunya and worldly affairs. You're getting

absolutely nothing. So that's why the intention is

something that is very very important and inshallahta'ala

after isha will carry on and finish off

this chapter and maybe move on to the

issue regarding the sahaba. What is our partners

do when it comes to the issues of

our sahaba.
