00:00:17 --> 00:00:19

Of, 2 issues that the Allah

00:00:19 --> 00:00:20

is with us

00:00:21 --> 00:00:22

and that the Allah

00:00:23 --> 00:00:24

is above the throne? Okay.

00:00:25 --> 00:00:26

There is a verse in the Quran that

00:00:26 --> 00:00:27

says, He

00:00:29 --> 00:00:31

is with you wherever you are.

00:00:31 --> 00:00:34

And then we have other ahadith and other

00:00:34 --> 00:00:35

ayan from the Quran

00:00:35 --> 00:00:37

to show us that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:00:37 --> 00:00:38

is above his throne.

00:00:38 --> 00:00:40

How can we combine between the 2? And

00:00:40 --> 00:00:42

there's a lot of controversy regarding it.

00:00:42 --> 00:00:45

Before I mentioned the actual narration that combines

00:00:45 --> 00:00:46

between the 2,

00:00:47 --> 00:00:48

we need to know brothers and sisters that

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

we must announce saying that Allah Subhanahu Wa

00:00:50 --> 00:00:51

Ta'ala is everywhere,

00:00:52 --> 00:00:53

and leave it like that unrestricted.

00:00:54 --> 00:00:56

What does that mean? That Allah is everywhere.

00:00:57 --> 00:01:00

And everywhere is what? The toilet, the sewage.

00:01:00 --> 00:01:01

Allah

00:01:02 --> 00:01:03

is in the feces. Allah

00:01:04 --> 00:01:05

is everywhere and anywhere.

00:01:05 --> 00:01:07

And we must have keep it unrestricted like

00:01:07 --> 00:01:07

that.

00:01:10 --> 00:01:12

That Ayah itself, brothers and sisters,

00:01:14 --> 00:01:16

when we look at the beginning of the

00:01:16 --> 00:01:17

Ayah and at the end of the Ayah,

00:01:17 --> 00:01:19

what is he speaking about?

00:01:19 --> 00:01:20

He's speaking about hail.

00:01:21 --> 00:01:21

Allah says,

00:01:28 --> 00:01:30

Do you not know that Allah subhanahu wa

00:01:30 --> 00:01:30

ta'ala knows

00:01:31 --> 00:01:32

what's in the heaven and

00:01:55 --> 00:01:56

the beginning of the ayah is speaking about

00:01:56 --> 00:01:59

what? Il, knowledge. And the end of the

00:01:59 --> 00:02:01

ayah is speaking about il again.

00:02:01 --> 00:02:02

So what the scholars said in order to

00:02:02 --> 00:02:04

combine because we can't just take one and

00:02:04 --> 00:02:06

leave the other. We have to get the

00:02:06 --> 00:02:08

ayat and try to reconcile between them all.

00:02:09 --> 00:02:09

Now the world

00:02:10 --> 00:02:12

win us through his knowledge.

00:02:37 --> 00:02:39

Topics, we have the Quran and the Sunnah.

00:02:39 --> 00:02:40

Right?

00:02:40 --> 00:02:42

And whose understanding do we take? Do I

00:02:42 --> 00:02:43

take my understanding?

00:02:43 --> 00:02:44

My uncle?

00:02:45 --> 00:02:47

My granddad? My teacher? My chef?

00:02:47 --> 00:02:48

Because we know

00:02:49 --> 00:02:50

that

00:02:51 --> 00:02:54

the people's intellects, they differ. Everybody has different

00:02:54 --> 00:02:55

levels of intellect.

00:02:56 --> 00:02:58

And because of this today, brothers and sisters,

00:02:58 --> 00:03:00

we see there is a big signal amongst

00:03:00 --> 00:03:01

the ummah.

00:03:01 --> 00:03:03

People wanna use their brain to explain or

00:03:03 --> 00:03:05

interpret a certain line.

00:03:06 --> 00:03:08

Rather, that we should that which we should

00:03:08 --> 00:03:10

stick to is not my understanding or your

00:03:10 --> 00:03:12

understanding or understanding of the Sahaba.

00:03:12 --> 00:03:15

How they understood these Mus'us. They lived with

00:03:15 --> 00:03:17

the prophet salallahu alaihi wa sallam, and they

00:03:17 --> 00:03:19

lived what was being revealed upon him.

00:03:19 --> 00:03:20

When we now look

00:03:21 --> 00:03:23

at how the companions, they understood this issue

00:03:23 --> 00:03:25

of whether Allah kept you or whether Allah

00:03:25 --> 00:03:26

took off his throne.

00:03:27 --> 00:03:27

Abdullah

00:03:40 --> 00:03:41

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:03:42 --> 00:03:43

is above his throne,

00:03:43 --> 00:03:45

and he knows what you are above.

00:03:46 --> 00:03:48

See how he combined between the 2.

00:03:49 --> 00:03:51

Is it an ordinary person saying this?

00:03:52 --> 00:03:54

Rod is a great companion. Right? And you

00:03:54 --> 00:03:56

know, Abdullah ibn Abdul Jabez said when he

00:03:56 --> 00:03:57

came to the tafsir of the Quran,

00:03:58 --> 00:03:58

he was.

00:04:01 --> 00:04:02

Him and ibn Abbas,

00:04:02 --> 00:04:04

they were higher when it came to other

00:04:04 --> 00:04:04

companions.

00:04:05 --> 00:04:08

And even one time, Abdullah ibn al

00:04:17 --> 00:04:19

There's not a person upon except that I

00:04:19 --> 00:04:21

know where it came down and who it

00:04:21 --> 00:04:22

came down upon.

00:04:33 --> 00:04:34

There is someone

00:04:35 --> 00:04:37

who knows more than me about the Quran

00:04:37 --> 00:04:39

and the right in Kamal can read it,

00:04:39 --> 00:04:40

I would have took my right in Kamal

00:04:40 --> 00:04:41

and I would have come.

00:04:43 --> 00:04:44

This Abdullah was commenting

00:04:44 --> 00:04:45

on this verse.

00:04:47 --> 00:04:49

So he takes precedence over my,

00:04:49 --> 00:04:51

my intellect, or someone else is going to

00:04:51 --> 00:04:53

come and give interpretation of the Quran.

00:04:54 --> 00:04:55

I love it, my brothers and sisters.

00:04:56 --> 00:04:58

So this is how we combine between the

00:04:58 --> 00:05:00

2, and this is our position when it

00:05:00 --> 00:05:02

comes to the Asma, the names and attributes

00:05:02 --> 00:05:04

of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala that we speak

00:05:04 --> 00:05:05

to the Quran and the Sunnah

00:05:21 --> 00:05:23

Your families go you don't marry off. She's

00:05:23 --> 00:05:25

boasting to the rest of the wife.

00:05:39 --> 00:05:40

Are you with me, brothers and sisters?

00:05:42 --> 00:05:44

So Zayd bin Jahash is saying, Allah called

00:05:44 --> 00:05:46

me Marika from they should say from everywhere.

00:05:47 --> 00:05:48

From me? Focus on this.

00:05:50 --> 00:05:51

Now when Allah is the wajun knows this,

00:05:51 --> 00:05:53

again we have another salaf,

00:05:54 --> 00:05:56

another great companion, a Sahabiya

00:05:56 --> 00:05:59

commenting on this issue. And that's what we

00:05:59 --> 00:06:00

stick to when it comes to all these

00:06:00 --> 00:06:04

aspects. I'm named Anadu Bismillah Alaihi wa jal.

00:06:04 --> 00:06:07

Done. Sheikh, we know that this, the question

00:06:07 --> 00:06:08

about the third issue

00:06:17 --> 00:06:18

That's when it comes to,

00:06:19 --> 00:06:20

kifa stawah.

00:06:20 --> 00:06:22

When he's talking about the kafiyyah.

00:06:23 --> 00:06:23

Okay?

00:06:24 --> 00:06:26

You know Allah subhanahu wa'ala was gonna do

00:06:26 --> 00:06:27

this well? Allah subhanahu

00:06:29 --> 00:06:31

wa'ala that rose up on his throne.

00:06:31 --> 00:06:33

Did he tell us anything else how he

00:06:33 --> 00:06:33

got it?

00:06:34 --> 00:06:34

No.

00:06:35 --> 00:06:36

When Imam Ali

00:06:36 --> 00:06:39

was asked, he was asked the question,

00:06:40 --> 00:06:41

how did he

00:06:41 --> 00:06:43

rise above the throne?

00:06:43 --> 00:06:45

This is what we don't get involved in.

00:06:46 --> 00:06:48

What Allah told us, we stick to it.

00:06:48 --> 00:06:49

Don't ask how,

00:06:50 --> 00:06:50

why

00:06:51 --> 00:06:53

you know, whatever does not happen in.

00:06:54 --> 00:06:56

So, Imam Malik

00:06:57 --> 00:06:58

responded by saying,

00:07:01 --> 00:07:02

when can you fear

00:07:03 --> 00:07:03

to?

00:07:04 --> 00:07:06

Sir. The fact that Baba rose over his

00:07:06 --> 00:07:08

throne is known. How it happened, it is

00:07:08 --> 00:07:10

not known. Because they don't have the Torahs.

00:07:12 --> 00:07:15

And to ask the question of how, it's

00:07:15 --> 00:07:15

an innovation.

00:07:16 --> 00:07:19

Because the companions never asked this question, rather

00:07:19 --> 00:07:20

they used to take it literally.

00:07:21 --> 00:07:24

Be the zen and Arabic, move in.

00:07:25 --> 00:07:27

Allah told them in a, you know, with

00:07:27 --> 00:07:29

a Arabic tongue. He told him like that.

00:07:29 --> 00:07:32

The the prophet told them. Hamas, they took

00:07:32 --> 00:07:32

him like that. This really

00:07:33 --> 00:07:34

no.
