00:00:08 --> 00:00:09
			Why the Quran guys?
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:18
			He asked him which
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:20
			is more beloved to you that I start
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:22
			with? Do I teach my son the Quran
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:23
			or the hadith?
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:24
			He says,
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:27
			teach him the Quran
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:29
			first.
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:31
			Do I teach him all of it? He
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			said,
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			except if it becomes difficult.
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:37
			You teach him some of it.
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:38
			Okay?
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:43
			He said,
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50
			Upon this, you find that the followers of
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:51
			Imam Muhammad they
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:53
			treaded this path.
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:56
			They treaded this path until this very day.
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:00
			And also in the Tarjama
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			of Ibn Abihaat,
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:05
			Imam al Zabi mentions this in Kitafsira,
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:09
			He says that his father
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			My father didn't allow me to busy myself
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:16
			with hadith,
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:19
			until I read the whole Quran on fatherly
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:20
			Ibn Shaddan and Razi.
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			That's when I started writing
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25
			down
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:27
			the Quran,
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:28
			the Hadith.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:30
			Also Muhammad ibn father,
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:32
			Rahimullah Ta'ala says,
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:34
			my grandfather
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:39
			I sought permission from my father
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:40
			in order
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:42
			to go and seek knowledge with Khutaybah.
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:47
			He said, Read the Quran first until I
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:48
			give you permission.
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			So he said I memorized the Quran
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:54
			So when he was done memorizing the Quran,
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:55
			he told him you can't leave until you
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:56
			read.
		
00:01:58 --> 00:01:59
			Some of the scholars they say you know
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:01
			a true habit of the Quran until you
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:03
			are able to lead Taraweeh.
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			That shows your strength in the Quran.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:07
			And that you're a real hafel.
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:09
			He said,
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			When 8 finished,
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:13
			he allowed me to go.
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			Also something very very funny is, Waleed al
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:16
			Muslim
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:17
			said,
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:22
			Every time we sat with Uzzai,
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:24
			a great tabi'i, and he saw that there
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:26
			was a young person with us.
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			Okay?
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31
			He said, Oh son,
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:32
			have you memorized the Quran?
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:35
			If he said to him yes, he would
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			tell him to read, you'll see
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			Who can tell him about his ayah? It's
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:44
			one of the most difficult ayah in the
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:45
			Quran.
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:47
			2nd page of Surah Al Nisa.
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:49
			Which talks about inheritance.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:51
			He put him on the spot and tell
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:53
			him to read it. How you read?
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:54
			Okay?
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:58
			If he said, I didn't memorize the Quran.
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:59
			He would say it in the Quran and
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:00
			then start seeking knowledge.
