And then, Imam Abu Hamaydia,
he mentions
There's no speech,
no action,
no when a person makes an intention except
that it has to be in accordance to
the sunnah.
If a person does any action
or says any speech,
even if his intentions
are very nice.
If this person's actions don't go in accordance
to the sunnah of the prophet
or his speech or his intention, that this
person
gets his action or whatever he's doing rejected.
So brothers, we have to understand that every
action has 3 conditions.
Every action that we do has 3 conditions.
The first condition is that this person needs
to be Muslim.
Whoever now who tries to desire other than
the religion of Islam, it won't be accepted
from him. The second condition,
he needs to have sincerity.
He needs to have the correct intention
when he's performing the action.
And we mentioned previously that otherwise this person
gets nothing
based upon the other hadith
No action is accepted except with the correct
intention.
The third condition,
it has to be in accordance to the
sunnah.
Our religion is not emotions
or excitement
or one feeling unhappy if something goes against
his desires.
Even though the might look to be something
good in front of your eyes,
mentioned
Every innovation
is a misguidance
even if the people see it to be
something good.
So the mohli now for example.
If a person is performing the mohli, the
celebration
of what? The birth of the prophet
and they're chanting down the road,
getting all emotional about it, we love the
prophet
Without the doubt, loving the prophet
in so many power religion.
The prophet
1 is not true believer until
he loves me more than his parents, his
children, and the people in totality,
all together.
So these people that come up to you
and they love the
prophet And perhaps in reality they love him.
They really like the prophet
But at the same time,
we have to ask us of this action
I'm
doing. Is it truly an action that the
prophet satisfied
with?
A whole came down.
Say to them, oh, Muhammad, if you truly
love Allah then
follow me.
Muhammad, if you truly love Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala, then follow me. He called this,
the verse of examination.
And he said,
Some people thought and claimed
that they know the prophet
but he tested them with this aya.
So when you're doing this action,
does it go into the prophet
So the mote, for example, going back to
the mote,
they make a parallel for the prophet
sending salutations from the Prophet
and then bring
it in
Whoever says one salutation upon me, Allah will
send that upon into salutations.
So that's what I'm saying, brothers.
So
because
there is some hadith
in some of the actions they might be
doing,
and based upon the emotions
they have taken this in the path as
an act of worship.
But because in the way it is done,
specifying something in your religion,
even though it might have a hadith to
it, but specifying for a specific occasion,
it becomes a
It's as if
we are only showing love to the prophet
salallahu alaihi wa sallam for what? One day.
So if you truly love something, what happens?
You only show love to the prophet
once a year. Is that true love?
And the statement of Hassan Rasool from the
tremendous of the Tabia age, some people thought
they loved the prophet and
But he tested them with this ayah. So
if you truly love
Allah then do what he's told you to
do. Stay away from what you don't just
stay away from.
Our religion,
brothers and sisters, our religion is perfect.
Our religion is perfect.
Every single detail, the prophet
the way he kissed his wives.
The way he drank milk. The way he
drank water.
The way
he had * with his wives.
All of that has been mentioned.
The way he slept, the way he woke
up, what he mentioned when going inside the
toilet,
when coming out, the smallest of the details.
What the prophet
going to make?
Every single detail has been mentioned.
A Jewish man came to Salman al Farisi.
And then what he said to Salman al
Farisi,
your prophet has taught you everything,
even how to use a toilet. It's,
hey,
the way to use the toilet.
The way to use the toilet. How to
sit down, the water, the things like that.
There was an explanation that Imam Ali mentioned
I forgot the very moment. The point
is
is the way to use the toilet.
So this Jewish man says to you, Salman
al Faris, your prophet told you, even how
to use the toilet.
So Salman al Faris
goes,
the
prophet
told us not to face the tibla
when
you're doing number 2, when you're doing number
1. If you had it if you had
it in bold, I know to use
or to use on the 3 stones
while washing yourself.
And not to wash ourselves with our right
hand.
So if this is not a Jewish man,
even the Jewish man has what? Acknowledged and
seen. It has come clear to you that
the religion of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa
sallam has been completed.
And that the prophet explained every single detail.
And whole came down.
The day when I affected you are completely
your religion.
Allah says,
we haven't neglected anything from the book.
And this hadith
is a back breaker.
The prophet mentioned.
There's not something that gets you closer to
Allah
And furthers you away from the fire, except
that I have clarified it to you.
I have a left a thing that gets
you close to Allah.
They never came a messenger before
me except that it was a it was
it was mandatory,
it was a right upon him to explain
to his and to show them of every
small
good deed.
And every evil that he knows about, that
he clarifies to them.
So the prophet
totally forgot.
The Sahaba who loved the prophet
more than anyone upon this earth.
Why didn't they wake up one day and
say, today
we're gonna make the celebration, celebrate the birthday
of the prophet
The time
of the prophet In the time of the
4 hima, nobody ever done it.
The time of
Someone comes after all these years
with his own fiqra,
his own idea and innovate something in their
religion.
What's the difference now? We got to wake
up tomorrow. Let's celebrate
the birthday of Musa alaihis salatu salam and
do the exact same thing that the Christians
do when it comes to Jesus the 25th
December.
We're gonna appoint what?
The day of Ashura, we're gonna celebrate
Musa alaihis salam's
birthday because it's the day when Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala said, Musa
and likewise with Sarih alaihis salat wasalam
with Yusuf, the day when he was taken
out of prison, let's celebrate the
celebration of Yusuf alaihis salam.
It will open a very wide door.
It will open a very wide door. And
now religion will become like the religion of
the Surah.
And he don't take and hurry up and
he ask whatever he wants, and he takes
away whatever he wants.
This Quran will be preserved
If there was any good in anything,
even if he looks to us as something,
masha'Allah,
Every
is a misguidance even if the people see
it to be
something good. So you have the statement of
which should be written
in golden ink because you have the tafsir
of the salaf
And you find some people they say that
Imam and Nawa
he split the bitter into 5 sections.
Imam
was a imam, but he was mistaken in
this. And the they clarify this and they
mentioned the prophet
means all types of innovations and misguidance.
So this word this is that
whether it's good, whether it's evil, it all
goes under it. Until you have a now
that specifies it that there's a good
And you also have the statement of
who saw this.
Is that clear for him?
So every single thing has been clarified. Brothers,
we're not in need of any guy to
come today and innovate
or bring about a new practice into our
religion.
Now 15 more minutes,
I'm going to start
the chapter
of
And asking Allah
to have mercy upon the companions of the
prophet
Yeah.
On all of his companions.
Oh Allah forgive.
Our Prophet's got preceded us in an imal.
So they make dua for them. They love
them. They have affection.
They ask Allah
to be pleased with them.
Quran. Many many hadith you'll find which talk
about the fallul of some of the companions
of the prophet
So who's the Sahabi?
Whoever met the prophet
and he believed in him. So the first
condition is that he met.
And he believed in the prophet
So the third condition is, and he died
upon Islam.
And he died upon Islam. These are the
three conditions
of who al Sahabi is.
And then he also mentions,
So he met the prophet
He believed in him, and he also died
upon al Islam. So if someone met the
prophet but he didn't believe in
him, he didn't believe in him until he
becomes habib,
because he never believed in him. If a
person believed
in the prophet
but then apostated.
This person was like
what happened to
Now, what if a person now, he believed
in the prophet and he met him, and
he apostated,
And then maybe after the death of the
prophet
he became a Muslim. Does he keep his
shushba, his companionship?
There's an issue, but the outward opinion is
that he is still a Sahabi.
Like the example of
You still find that the people like
will still say that he's a Sahabi.
At the time of the prophet
he was
a normal companion
and then he apostated.
And then in the time
of he was brought,
he was brought to
when war
war broke out.
And he entered into Islam.
And Abu Bakr got him married off to
one of his sisters.
So Ash'ad ibn al-'Aiz
reentered into Islam after the death of the
prophet
So his
was still there, his companionship was still there.
Right.
What about a person
who was there at the time of the
prophet
but he never met met him?
Like what do we call him?
There's a between
the
and also the
Sahabi. Something called
something called.
And when the
and Bahad al Khateed will find
these kind of terminology.
Is someone that didn't meet the prophet
But at the same time he was dead
his tongue, and he believed in him as
well.
So someone like Uweis Al Karami,
he is known to be a
but they say there's a
a level between the Sahabi and the is
someone that was there at the time of
the prophet but
he did end up meeting him.
So
so
is someone that whether he sat with the
prophet for a long time.
Even if he sat with him for a
very short time,
Whoever narrated from him or never narrated from
him.
Even the one that went out in the
prophet
in an expedition, or he never went out.
Old or even the one that met the
prophet
but he wasn't able to see him due
to them being a barrier.
Like
who used to make the adan,
He was blind. He was blind. And do
we still say he's a prophet?
Do we still say
because
he met the prophet believe every Islam.
It's a clear
one.
And brothers, we have to believe in the
3 matters. We have to believe in 3
matters when it comes to Sahaba.
It is mandatory
to be pleased
and make dua for them and ask Allah
to be satisfied with
That's the first belief we have regarding
the second one.
To stay away and have stayed
from any
of the things that happened between them.
Sometimes there
were maybe crows
and disputes that happened between the We
have to stay away from it. We don't
indulge in that which to place between them.
The third thing,
loving the close relatives of the prophet
The close relatives of the prophet
it is mandatory that we have affection a
lot towards them.
So you have these 3 methods that we
have to believe when it comes to
Allah
to be satisfied with them.
2nd one,
to abstain.
It is mandatory to abstain
from the things that took place between So
if there was a dispute, for example, between
and
they are both great companions. We don't get
involved. Stay away from it.
They are people that have gone.
And they have
now reached that which they used to do.
They will be held to account for whatever
they used to do.
And you, how will you do as well?
And you won't be asked, how bad they
wish they used to do?
Is also considered
He said that this eye is regarding the
sahaba. The Sahaba Hamas have gone. Allah
has forgiven them. You don't evolve.
You don't evolve.
And the
of the Sahaba Amili.
Who was the best of the Sahaba?
The
United States agreed was
And today, brothers, don't think that this is
something that is clear cut between the people.
They hate Abu Bakr.
That guy called Yasser Habib.
He will say
And he's now here in London.
When he came and he got kicked out,
Britain, they gave him
They open up a TV channel for him.
He gets recorded and he's all over YouTube
cursing the Sahaba.
In his prayers, cursing the Sahaba. And they're
recording him and and they're putting this all
over the internet. The whole shahid is,
don't think that this is a concept that
we can't be afflicted with. Our own Somali
brothers in Cricklewood, in West London, are being
afflicted
by this ideology.
They
bring a shire to the mystic, it's given
doubt.
None of us are saying, and this is
unheard of in a Somali community.
How do we know that Abu Bakr is
the best of the companions?
Firstly, there's a unanimous agreement.
Also,
that simply
because the prophet
told Aisha
to make him lead the prayer just before
he died.
Also,
Abdullah ibn Abi Rahmari mentioned, and the hadith,
this narration is in Bukhari. This narration is
in Bukhari.
And the statement of the,
Sahabi
If it wasn't said by the prophet
we call it a narration
This is just a side benefit. They will
say it in Hadith.
He mentions,
whatever you ascribe to Sahabi, whether it's a
statement or an action, we call
it This narration is
Any action of the prophet
Any narration that is,
ascribed to the Prophet from his actions or
his speech, we call it
So this narration now is
He mentioned,
We used to
choose
from amongst the Sahaba in the time of
the prophet
So we used to choose
our Baqab, meaning to be the most superior,
the Muhammad and Usman.
The that they make you believe that what?
The rejection is also called the shia.
That
Ali hated Abu Bakr.
And that he was against him, that he
didn't agree to his at
all.
Another narration in, Sahih al Bukhari, and this
is the leg breaker.
Muhammad
he was one of the
he was one of the sons of
And he was only born when?
He asked his father,
if I
really hated Abu Bakr,
All this time I just passed, Abu Bakr
is dead.
You're in a time of
At least now, if you really hate something,
it's gonna become not apparent on your tongue.
And you're only telling your son. Sometimes you
can hide stuff from the people, but your
son, you're gonna tell him the truth.
His son asked
him,
Who is the most
Who's the one that has
I cannot judge. Who's the best No. Who
is the best obstacle of Prophet
replies, his son says,
So his son
says, I I was scared that he's gonna
say,
so I said to him, you
father.
He goes,
I am only a man just like the
rest of the men, out of tawad or
out of humbleness.
So
if really hated,
would
he say to his son,
That the best one after prophet
And his narration is a Bukhari.
So you have a walk around the Allahu
Muhammad.
The
man
who Allah
made the truth upon his tongue. That shaitan
used to be scared of him.
And then, you have with man, Ibn
And then you have with man,
ibn Affair, who was married to 2 of
the daughters of the prophet
he mentioned about
And do you not,
want to be in the same position
as Harun was when it came to Musa
alaihis salatu wasalam.
So some of them, they said, Khalaq, this
is proof now. This is proof that
he was deserving of the Khalaf more than
anyone else. Because the prophet said to him,
do you not now want to
be in the position
as
was
in the with Musa alaihis salaam.
Because Musa alaihis salatu was and
the one that was in number 2 was
who? Haram alaihis salatu wasalam. And here the
prophet is hitting an analogy, bringing an analogy.
Do you not want to be in the
same position that Harun was with Musa and
you're like this with me?
Ibn Hajar al Asqarali
he mentions,
Firstly, we have to know that Harun
was only Musa number 2 in his lifetime.
Because Haroun died before Musa
He was only his what? His number 2
in his lifetime.
And he was never ever his number 2
or he wasn't
appointed to be his number 2 after this.
Is that because he died before him?
And the fact that someone is your number
2 in this dunya
or at your lifetime doesn't necessitate that you're
gonna be the number 2 indeed
after your
death.
So the fact that the
prophet said, even if we
know that
was a number 2,
They were all in agreement.
They used to choose amongst them.
Even after him, they
all knew that
was the best
and
more superior than anyone else.
So you have these 4 that are the
best.
Number 1, number 2, number 3, number 4.
Then you have the
who come after them in Khalilah.
The
10 who were giving glad tidings
of the Jannah.
Hadith Shaitan Bazeid, where the prophet mentions, where
the prophet
mentions,
All these all these 9 are in the
jannah. Then the prophet
said
he kept quiet
All these ten have been given given
of a jannah.
So you find that they, them 4 are
the 4 most superior. Then after them, who
those that come and follow
in virtue
are the rest of the 6.
And also you have another Sahabi.
Sad.
I never heard the prophet sallallahu alaihi was
ever say,
one person that is living or walking upon
the earth is in the Jannah other than
Abu alaihi wasallam.
So the whole point is you have these
10
who
are the most virtuous,
who have been giving the tiding of
when it comes to specifically
specifically
mentioning specific individuals
in in virtue.
Every single person has
excellence.
None. But each one of them, they differ
when it comes to superiority and also virtuousness.
So you have them 10. And also we
have to understand, brothers, as a whole,
those that are most
virtuous
after
the 10
Muhajaleen.
Because they
made hijrah
to Awith the prophet
finishes off next week. Otherwise, I'm gonna miss
my
train.
