Smilla Mara Rahim Al hamdu lillah wa Salatu was Salam ala Rasulillah he Amma Baba.

00:00:13--> 00:00:32

This is our second dose sha Allah Tala has released to some of the characteristics of the battle rock man subhanho wa taala. And as it relates to the battle man, the servants of Allah and their dealings with the book of Allah in light of the fact this is the blessed month of the Quran

00:00:33--> 00:00:37

month of Ramadan shadow Quran

00:00:39--> 00:01:14

we mentioned last week the ayat of the Quran in surah Al Furqan, that the Prophet will come sulla while he was salam in your Mulki Amity and he's going to complain about his community. We'll call her Rasulullah Robin cometa who have Khurana Majora on my lawn and people have abandoned the Quran. Want to do today in sha Allah azza wa jal and during the subsequent lessons about this issue, so as to encourage ourselves in the community, to be of the people who are doing the right thing in terms

00:01:14--> 00:01:47

of being connected to the book of Allah, and doing our level best to avoid being from the people we're going to be mentioned today. Those people who have actually abandon the Quran because the abandonment of the Quran means a lot of things today we'll begin by saying one of the meanings of abandoned in the Quran is not learning the Quran and this masjid, the Masjid of Al Hadith. I think the vast majority of the people within this Masjid the members of this masjid, if you will, we are

00:01:47--> 00:02:09

not Arabs. We are non Arabs item. So we don't know the meaning of the Quran. Nonetheless, we have a religious responsibility to connect ourselves with learning about the different sciences of the Quran and they are many and there's a lot of virtues as well in learning and teaching the Quran

00:02:10--> 00:02:44

the newbie of Islam sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi wa sallam informed this community Hierro come mental liminal Quran or lemma. The best of you the best from this ummah, is the one who learns the Quran, and then He teaches the Quran. So that is a deal that goes to show the importance of learning the Quran. And as I mentioned, there are many sciences of the Quran, we have to learn about the science of tafseer the explanation of the Quran to the best of our ability, we have to learn about a science

00:02:44--> 00:03:19

that is called a NASA Waldman. So where certain is abrogate of is it even ABI Taalib may Allah be pleased with him saw a man who was teaching the people. And this teacher used to just tell stories, stories about this happened and stories about that happen. I know a famous story concerning the imam who came to the house of a family and there was some money on the table. There was some money on the table. The Imam, he took the money and he put it inside of the Quran he got up when he left. The

00:03:19--> 00:03:49

wife said to the husband that the man has stolen the money and they were afraid to bring this to the attention of the Imam. They had sort of been about the Imam. And then finally they approached him and they said listen, Imam the money went missing when you came you stole the money. The man said to them, I didn't steal any money. I saw the money that was there but I took the money and I put it in the Quran go and check it. So they went and checked the Quran they found the money in the Quran. A

00:03:49--> 00:04:23

whole year had expired, and the money was in the Quran. So people will tell you that story which isn't true and it even can be criticized because if the Imam came and he saw money on the table of something, it wasn't the Imams business to touch anybody's money. The prophets of Allah who it was suddenly them said, Man Hosni Islam in Turku, Mala Yanni, from a person's good Islam is leaving alone that which does not concern him. So that story actually goes against the Hadith of the Prophet

00:04:23--> 00:04:53

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and it's a famous story when we hear it, it's a nice story. It can benefit some people aren't even at the top. So a man who used to give those kinds of stories. He said to that man, do you know the nassef in them and so do you know the science of what is were abrogated in which is abrogated them? The man said, No. And he the Emir of movement, email lobby presume told the man you are, you are destroyed and you're going to destroy other people. You are a

00:04:53--> 00:05:00

strain, you're going to send other people astray. So we're not a group of people who tell stories like

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

Baghdad and we rely on stories. So as it relates to this, it goes to show clearly the virtues of learning the Quran in the sciences of the Quran, the science of s Bab and azul, learning when and why certain is were revealed in the Quran. So the point here is the Muslim has to learn the book of Allah. Allah mentioned the Quran murottal Quran the Torah Tila, read the Quran correctly in Arabic, and Arabic, not in English, not in Spanish, German, not in Dutch read the Quran correctly in Arabic.

00:05:39--> 00:06:13

So you have to learn at Tajweed how to read the Quran is one of the sciences of the Quran and their meaning from that which shows the virtues of learning the Quran is the Hadith that I mentioned last week, that the Nabil sallallahu alayhi. Wa, it was sending them access companions, which one of you would like to go to the place where the camels are the camels of Zakat, and it comes back every day with two fat voluptuous camels without committing any sin. He didn't steal the camels. He didn't rob

00:06:13--> 00:06:43

anybody didn't stick anyone up. He goes every day and he comes back with two cameras. They said all of us will love that. He told them something Allahu Allah, he was selling them for one of you to go to the masjid. And to read to is of the Quran or to learn to is of the Quran they tafseer then this is better for you than two camels, the companions of the prophet like Jad that had been that day let me Allah be pleased with him, and sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Jabir has said that the prophets

00:06:43--> 00:07:14

Allah Allahu alayhi wa sallam used to teach us the dua of istikhara, so lateralis the hara, and he used to teach us the hook bottle hijacked in Al Hamdulillah. He no matter who he used to teach us those two issues with the same emphasis that he would teach us a surah from the Quran, so he used to teach them the Quran and they used to learn the Quran from the NABI sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. The companion said that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam whereof the Allah and whom was sitting,

00:07:14--> 00:07:46

teach them the Quran. And while teaching the Quran if he came to an ayat that tells us to make such the Rasul Allah will make such that in the middle of the dots in the middle of the class, the presentation, and the companions will make that such that along with him. So all of that goes to show that learning the Quran is from what is an obligation upon the Muslims, especially in light of the fact one of the signs of yomo Pm is that the Quran is going to be taken away to the point and to

00:07:46--> 00:08:17

the degree that the Quran would not be in the earth, not even one ayat will be in the minds and the hearts of the Muslims. So learn in the Quran, the prophet will complain to his loss of Hannah with Allah, my Lord, My people have abandoned the Quran. And that is the condition of many people. And as I mentioned, it's a deal and a proof that the Prophet was divinely inspired sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, because how did he know that was going to happen? His companions did not abandon the Quran.

00:08:17--> 00:08:49

So he wasn't talking about his companions. He was talking about what was going to happen later on, that many people will listening to me right now. They don't learn the Quran. So right now the blessed month of Ramadan, this Masjid Greenly masjid, every day they're given a Koran Tafseer class three hours from three o'clock to six o'clock by our brother chef Dr. Asin honey I Sinhala Healy tremendous class Allah He tremendous class, the recitation of our brother, our student, the son of

00:08:49--> 00:09:20

our brother, Ibrahim haffi, the hula Huhtala, the little brother, the young brothers reading the Quran in Arabic with Tajweed and it's nice his recitation and then he reads the English and then Dr. A chef us and Hanif gives the explanation. Three hours from three o'clock to six o'clock. Someone may say, oh, that's long I can't possibly take all that time to sit for a class why not? They're giving you a break within those three hours and for your information 20 in the blessed month of

00:09:20--> 00:09:41

Ramadan, Imam will Buhari and other than Him from the setup of the Adama the redeemable, Hadith and Hadith Al Imam Sufi Sophia and authority though scholars and rememberable hottie used to read the whole Quran in one day, the same day, every day in Ramadan.

00:09:42--> 00:10:00

That would take about 10 hours to complete the whole recitation of the Quran 10 hours they would do that in the month of Ramadan because the month of the Quran Al Imam Malik he was stopped teaching Hadith he would turn to the Quran and just

00:10:00--> 00:10:33

Start reading the book of Allah subhanahu wata Allah in the month of Ramadan. So if Imam Buhari spent 10 hours in the Quran, having alone him high determination, then we can at least make the effort to come in to learn about the Tafseer of the Quran. While you're just sitting there in the comfort of your own home, it is an opportunity to learn the Quran. Also from the meanings of abandoning the Quran in addition to not taking the time out, to make yourself and to position

00:10:33--> 00:11:04

yourself and your children to learn the Quran. Yes, your children. Because what happens is the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa salam in authentic hadith Oh laddle cominciare comb, your children are from your efforts. So if you take your child and put him in position where he or she can learn the Quran, it is to a certain degree like you will learn in the Quran, you will get the reward of that child learning the Quran but it doesn't exempt you mother and father doesn't exempt you from also

00:11:04--> 00:11:40

trying to learn the obligation of learning to tweet and other aspects of the book of Allah Allah subhanho wa Taala the second meaning of abandoned in the Quran and they are many they are many, we will not exhaust all of them talking about a few each Friday in the month of Ramadan because there are so many will love them Stein, from abandoned in the Quran is not believing in the Quran, or believing in part of the Quran, believing in some of it, and not believing in other parts of it,

00:11:40--> 00:12:02

embracing some of it and not embracing other aspects of it. This is a problem. Allah will tell that said to Benny in Surah ear with a soil inquiry, it is a question of the brewery refuting them and rebuke even rebuking them for took me knowing to be bothered keytab what taught me no maybe about for managers, that will mean if I do that they

00:12:03--> 00:12:17

will hire to dunya to you people believe in some of the book and you disbelieve in other parts of the book, and what is the reward of the person who does that except that he will be debased.

00:12:18--> 00:12:52

You'll know Kiama and the dunya he's going to be debased and you'll know Pm is going to go to a serious punishment that has been prepared for him and it's lying in wait for him. So believing in all of the Quran, especially during this time, where normative Islam is under under threat, we have those people want to be liberal, they want to be free. They want to cherry pick as it relates to what to believe in and what to practice in the book of Allah. So the Muslim believes, where the

00:12:52--> 00:13:23

Quran says that the Quran is the speech of Allah. The Muslim believes in the story of Isa Hussain Ibrahim Iacob. He believes in different aspects of the Quran, even the miracles like the greatest Quran, the greatest miracle that the Prophet came with, was in is the Quran. But there are other many miracles like it's Robin Mirage, she believes in that. But then when it comes when it comes to the hijab, she doesn't believe in that. When it comes to a man being allowed to have more than one

00:13:23--> 00:13:58

wife for an example. She doesn't believe in that. It's just an example. That's how people are. So the issue here is believing in the book of Allah. Oh my lord, some of my people, they have abandoned the Quran and they may have heard of the Quran and that they don't believe in it correctly. They don't believe that the Quran is more Haman. It is super impose and over every other piece of literature, every book, every newspaper, every other book, the Quran, the Quran should supersede

00:13:59--> 00:14:35

everyone's opinion, everyone's culture what he has to say. Allahu Taala mentioned in the Quran. Yeah, you are living in an army no Billa he were also the world Kitab levy New Zealand necessarily, I don't know Sudhi Oh, you who believe. Believe in Allah, and believe in His messengers, and believe in the book that he revealed to His Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So that is an ayat commanding the Muslims to have a man in the book of Allah who Suhana with the island. Allah Allah

00:14:35--> 00:14:45

Tada mentioned another item of the Quran for me yet again accompany Huda fermented beer who died for the homophone la mala, xenon.

00:14:46--> 00:14:59

When my guidance comes to you, the guidance of the Quran, the die of the Quran, the nature of the Quran, when my guidance comes to you, whoever follows the guidance, then there will be no fee

00:15:00--> 00:15:32

Fear upon that individual, nor would those people be afraid they won't be sad. So by believing in the book of Allah subhanho wa taala, we will be divinely protected from having inherited going off the mark. We will be divinely protected from having fear, fear of what the non Muslims can do to you what your enemy can do to you, what's going to be the future of Islam and so forth and so on. So there are a number of ayat that Allahu Taala has mentioned, showing that it is an obligation to

00:15:32--> 00:16:10

believe in the book of Allah who Dinah you mentioned in the Quran. In the levy federal dialect Al Quran, Lara Dukkha oedema ad Wehrli, the one who has made the Quran fettled and you Muhammad, he's going to return you back your mukaiyama Federal dialectical Quran federal Donica the Quran is firm. What does it mean foreign foreign means wadge if you have to do it, it's an obligation Wehrli the one Allah who has made the Quran Faruk, upon you yam, honey, and upon your community sallallahu

00:16:10--> 00:16:45

alayhi wa sallam, he returned return you and all of your community and everybody to him, y'all know piano. What does federal mean here, it means the one who has made it federal upon you to believe in this book, to believe in what it has brought and what it says and in believing in the Quran that in and of itself is a lecture by itself and it means many things is that we take all of the Quran and not cherry pick. It is also to believe that the Quran is adulterated and it cannot be you know,

00:16:45--> 00:17:21

tampered with. Allah described the Quran he said about the Quran Leja tea Hill bar to bein a day he will live in healthy, the Quran, falsehood cannot come before it in front of it, nor can false it come from behind it. And that is because it is the book of Allah. So therefore, it is an obligation upon the Muslims not to abandon the Quran by having the wrong type of belief in the Quran. And this is why those brothers and sisters who are giving dower to Christians, we have to be very careful

00:17:21--> 00:17:54

about saying things like Allah said in the Quran and the Bible God said this, God said we have to be careful because maybe Allah didn't say those things. And we shouldn't be using other books and sources as the primary source of our data. When we can avoid that. We shouldn't rely on our intellect. When the Prophet said Pharaoh Kayamkulam Allah He meant that the best speech is the speech of Allah. And he said about himself Subhan Allah to Allah, Allah Who knows Zela ISIL al

00:17:54--> 00:18:24

Hadith. Allah has revealed the best speech and the best speeches the Quran, so you'll find individual he'll give a lecture. The whole lecture is void of him mentioned in one ayat instead he'll say, share someone so said I will share Exocet and share someone so said and the sharing so and so and it's like a broken record like a parrot. He'll give a hug but and you won't hear one ayat of the Quran. It's just the share of someone so said and the sheikh so and so. And I did this and he

00:18:24--> 00:19:04

starts to talk about his own personal life and stories. This is not acceptable in the deen of Allah. So believing in the Quran, it entails it entails many things, believing that the Quran is nor believing that the Quran is appropriate, it is monastic, it is relevant. It is okay for every time and every praying place. Sometimes you hear people sarcastically saying things that actually statements of disbelief. The person will say Well, are you telling me that I should believe and this

00:19:04--> 00:19:39

and this and that which was mentioned in the Quran, as if he's having doubt in it. That's hard. You love the book of ALLAH, ALLAH SubhanA wa taala. Allah mentioned in the Quran am another rasuluh Bhima una de la la he made me known Carlone am and Billahi Ekati were called to be at Verily the messenger he believes in what was revealed to him. And so to the believers of this OMA all of them believe in Allah and the books that Allah revealed in the mullah in his messengers Salawat Allah He

00:19:39--> 00:19:59

was sent Ambu Ali as for those people who make hedger of the Quran in this way, but not believing in it, then this is a sign of copper, and a person puts himself in a very serious position yomo Qiyamah what happened to Benny asstra Eel is just that Allah will try to Allah mentioned about

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

Benny Israel ame we're army new Bhima and Zelt to Musa Deacon Dima Malcolm will

00:20:08--> 00:20:35

to cool new a word, a word a careful and be believing what We have revealed to you Benny Israa eel, which is Musab to that what you brought the Quran supports the Torah, the NGO the Quran supports that. So believe it and don't be the first of those who disbelieve, he mentioned love either the Quran wama yak Furu, Bihar el Fassi cone,

00:20:36--> 00:21:11

concerning the Quran, the ayat Biggie night from the Quran, those ayat Allah said, No one disbelieves in them, no one disbelieves in them, except that the people who have Fiske they are the people of evil, evil doers. So with that, being in the case, learning the Quran, and believing in the Quran, in its totality, and everything that Allah mentioned in it, and about it. Number three, from those things that we will mention concerning abandoned in the Quran. And this is an issue in

00:21:11--> 00:21:49

reality, excuse me, I've one, this is an issue in reality that shouldn't be my young buddy, it shouldn't be because it's easy to do for the one that Allah makes it easy upon Him and for Him. And it's difficult for the one that Allah Tala has not given him tofield and that is from abandoning the Quran. Number three is not listening to the Quran, just disengaging oneself from all of the activities that are around him. And if he doesn't want to totally, absolutely disengage himself,

00:21:49--> 00:22:23

then partly disengage himself. One example is the month of Ramadan. And we're not too far from salata. Maghrib and this day would have been over, Inshallah, so the lady is in the house, and she's cooking. So in the kitchen, she has the Quran plan. So she's listening to the Quran, while she's doing her cooking, and so forth and so on. Everyone is in the house, and the Quran is playing. They play solo to Bukhara in order to keep the shaper on out of the house. And at the same time, they are

00:22:23--> 00:22:56

listening to the Quran. So the kid is growing up, and he's listening to the Quran as a part of his life. I know as a child growing up in America, as an African American, we have our own culture. And music is a part of our culture, just like it is a part of everybody else's culture. And I remember, like it was just the date crystal clear insight. I mean, it's crystal clear. Even with me, facilely becomes even more clear, because as we fast, our minds are really clear. I remember growing up, and

00:22:56--> 00:23:26

the music and the sounds that were beaming in my house, in the rooms of my house, when my mother was cleaning up when things were happening, when we used to go to parties when we used to go to picnics, when we would go out on a family outing, we will wake up for school and my mother would play the radio play songs that to this very day. If I were to hear some of those songs, they will take me back to that time. Then I say what Allah said in the Quran asking the question at a step DeLuna Levy

00:23:26--> 00:23:55

who were Adela Bill Levy, who higher would you people exchange that which is better, you take that which is better. And you put that aside and you take that which is worse. So you take that which is better, which is the Quran, put it on the side, instead of playing it in the in the house so the children can grow up on that listening to that being acquainted with it. Put that on the site, and then we play music, Arabic music,

00:23:56--> 00:24:36

Indian music, whatever, African music, hip hop whatever it happens to be. So the Quran the Quran, listening to the Quran, not listening to the Quran rebag Allah is one of the signs of the non Muslims of Quraysh and the non Muslims in general. They do not want to listen to the Quran. Allah mentioned describe this situation in the Quran he said about those non Muslims will call a lady in a cafe rulide Tessmer already had the Quran what else Oh feed I look I'm totally born. And those who

00:24:36--> 00:24:59

disbelieve they said during the time of Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to Slimming cathedra they said to their friends, to the other non Muslims, don't don't listen to this Quran. Don't listen to the Quran. And when it's being recited, make noise, make noise over it so that you will be the ones who are victorious.

00:25:01--> 00:25:31

Because the non Muslims of Quraysh they actually knew that the Quran had the ability to affect and to impact. They used to warn each other. Don't go listen to Muhammad, because he's going to mesmerize you with his magic. And some of the salvage from the people, you know the ones who are riffraff, the people from society who don't think for themselves. They just fly with everyone that comes they used to listen and they wouldn't go. But there will be some people will say, don't tell

00:25:31--> 00:26:03

me what to do. I'm smart enough to be able to discern what I hear. I can tell if it's true, or if it's not true, and they will go and they will listen to the Quran. And then when they will sit and listen to the Quran. They will go back to Qureshi and say hey, this is not the speech of a human being. Some of them will go and they will listen. And they will accept al Islam. Allahu Taala mentioned in the Quran called oh here in a year and no stemma and not for a minute Jen

00:26:04--> 00:26:22

for Carlo in Santa Ana Quran and I joba Yeah, the L heart. Yeah, the Eros for airmen be well then know should they Kabira Bina hada tell them Yeah, Mohammed, tell your community, the Muslims, the non Muslims tell the world.

00:26:24--> 00:26:54

Verily, it has been revealed to me I've been told I've been informed that a group of jinn were listening to the Quran when I was reciting it. They were listening to the Quran. And when they listened to the Quran, they came and they told each other and see to be quiet, be quiet. And they sat and they listen and the Prophet was reading sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. After he finished the recitation of the Quran, they got up and they said, this Quran. It is an amazing recitation of guys

00:26:54--> 00:27:29

who rushed the guidance and as a result of that, we believe in it and we will not make shift with our Lord. And then they went back to their people move it in the genuine back to the gym, and they started giving Dawa Illa Allah so the Quran by merely listening to it, it has an effect and it has an impact that the scholars call jazz, it is a miracle and it is amazing. Allah Allah subhana wa Tada mentioned in the Quran and Nephi that Nicola vichara Lehmann can Allah who can

00:27:30--> 00:28:07

Oh, cuz summer will who was Shaheed Verily, this is a book that is a reminder and it is a remembrance. For the one who has a heart he has the ability to contemplate, to reflect, to understand, and it is a remembrance and a reminder for the one who gives to it, his listening his undivided attention, and he is paying heed, and he's taking heed, he doesn't listen. So abandoning the Quran is not to take the time out, to just sit down and just to listen to the book of Allah,

00:28:07--> 00:28:40

even if you don't understand it, to be moved by it so that that Cara and that recitation that Quran, it causes you to have even more Eman and Allahu Subhana wa Taala as it relates to the Hadith of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Rasul Allah used to listen to the Quran he was sitting with his companion, one of the aroma of the Quran, a scholar from the Companions, his name was Abdullah it Massoud may Allah be pleased with them. Rasul Allah said to Abdullah minimus o sallallahu alayhi wa

00:28:40--> 00:28:45

sallam read for me the Quran read me the Quran.

00:28:46--> 00:29:22

Abdullah must all he was shocked, surprised, maybe shy. He say yeah, Rasul Allah, you want me to read to you and upon you and for you the Quran, and the Quran was revealed on you. You're the man here. You're the expert. You're the teacher of the Quran. You want me to read it on you. The Prophet told him sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in the headboard as Mao who made it. I love to hear it from other than me. I love to hear it from other people. I love to hear it being read. So the Prophet

00:29:22--> 00:29:56

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam attentively Abdullah animus o said I began to read surah and he sat. He began with sorting through the SAT. And he said I came to the island and sort of in the sand way along the time I mentioned in the iron K for either jednom and cooled it or met him, Misha heathen. Were jitna bigger and Shahida How is it going to be yomo Qiyamah Yeah, Mohammed, if we bring every single nation yomo Kiama and we bring the witness over that nation, their prophet, their messenger

00:29:56--> 00:30:00

that was sent to them, and then we bring you over there

00:30:00--> 00:30:36

Is OMA over this nation. When Abdullah was old read that I had. He said that the Prophet said sallallahu alayhi wa sallam has spoken Stop, stop, Abdullah Moscow says, so I stopped. And I looked up for either a now who took the Refine, I looked up and I looked at him, and lo and behold, his eyes was shedding tears, the effect and the impact of listening to the Quran. The scholar said that one of the reasons that the prophets of Allah while he was sending them did this was to establish

00:30:36--> 00:31:08

and to show Abdullah bin mudstone and the rest of this Ummah that listen to the Quran is from the Sunnah, because the Sunnah is what he said, what he did, and when something happened in his presence, and he saw it, he heard about it, he knew about it, and he remained quiet, then that thing that was done, it is considered to be the pseudonym because he had no he heard about it, and he gave his tacit approval and he remained silent. So by listening to the Quran, the prophet is showing us

00:31:08--> 00:31:44

Allah what He was telling them that that's from the Sunnah. He brought this religion and he brought this Quran. And by listening to the Quran, he himself was showing us it's a lot of rewards in that, and there are just too many examples, the time is flying. But I would really like to take more time out just to go over this aspect of making hedger of the Quran and abandoning the Quran. By not listening to it. You're driving to work, you're coming from work, put on the Quran, you're idle, you

00:31:44--> 00:32:17

don't have anything to do. Put on the Quran Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. He was passing by one of his companions. His cumbia was Abu Musa and ash it may Allah be pleased with them. Abu Musa was reading the Quran Rasul Allah passed by, he heard him reading the Quran, he stopped and he listened to him, he stopped, and he listened to him. Now you can imagine the Prophet sallallahu wasallam was always busy. He's a father, he's a grandfather. He's a husband, he's an MBA, he's the

00:32:17--> 00:32:48

teacher he's in. He's in control of the army, he SallAllahu wasallam has to have dialogue. He has to have discussions got to go into negotiations with the people who are non Muslims in the city. You know, like we're saying, now we're locked down with the corona. And before Corona, we didn't have time for the Quran. What do we have to say now? What do we have to say now in the month of Ramadan, and we're not really engaging in the listening of the book of Allah azza wa jal, so he was busy.

00:32:48--> 00:33:24

Despite that fact, he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam listened to the recitation of Abu Musa Ashari who didn't know that the Prophet was listening to him. And then the Prophet left Salallahu Alaihe where it was cellular Rasul Allah saw Abu Musa the next day, he said Laura at any war Anna istemi Electra attic Albury ha. If you would have only seen me you didn't see me, but if you would have only seen me, I was listening to your recitation yesterday last night. Abu Musa luxury I was listening to your

00:33:24--> 00:34:01

recitation, he said verbally you have been given an MS MA from the Messiah emir of Al darood elderwood, you have been given a flute, from the flutes of what Donald was given the meaning of flute, not the actual instrument of a flute, which is haram, but that will have the Psalms He had visible or visible. And I remember when I was a Christian, we used to believe very heavily in the Psalms. And I remember reading from the Psalms in our church that we used to go through Al

00:34:01--> 00:34:37

Hamdulillah for Al he Daya for towhee for Al Islam. Why Rudy bIllahi min and COVID was shipped while capable Hora fat will be that but I remembered that the psalms of deload he used to praise Allah and the way we're praise Allah His voice was amazing. So Apple Musa and ash Ali's recitation resembled that so the point here is that the Nabil sallallahu alayhi wa, it was setting them he used to listen to the Quran. Look what happened. Another example. And there are many. He was waiting for our mother

00:34:37--> 00:35:00

I Isha his wife, rob the Allah Allah was something Allah who it was set it up. He had an appointment with her that she was supposed to come to the house. He was waiting for her, but she was late getting there. Prophet sallallahu it was sending them when she came into the house. He said what happened when you bent responsibility of the husband, to ask his wife to ask those under his authority.

00:35:00--> 00:35:31

At the end is supervision where you been? Why are you wearing that? Where are you going? Who are you going with? That's his responsibility is going to be questioned about that. You know, and these days that Ramadan, unfortunately every single game Ramadan, we have this situation where Muslims are killing other Muslims and Muslims are being killed by other Muslims gang activity, anti social behavior, and this Masjid Greenway masjid, we try our level best to try to eradicate and address

00:35:31--> 00:35:33

these issues and I'm doing that right now.

00:35:34--> 00:36:05

This year is no exception to the rule where and Medic, about a week ago or so after Ramadan came in a group of people, youngsters from our community, they engaged, you know, in some violent activity, and I saw this with my own eyes and the WhatsApp message was sent to me. And one of the guys took a knife, and he stabbed the guy in his heart. And then he took a step or two back and then he fell back on his head and he died, checked out dead.

00:36:06--> 00:36:46

For what? For what, there's no benefit for that lost his life for nothing. Absolutely nothing. It's a shame. And it is a set of circumstances that are quite disturbing, quite disturbing, then they'd be useful. Allahu alayhi wa it was seldom, he has brought a religion for us, a religion that tells us why we have to do our best to engage our community in focusing on the book of Allah. We don't have time for all of this other stuff. The father is responsible for knowing what his children are

00:36:46--> 00:37:17

up to. Who is his child running with coming with going with sitting with dealing with talking to the internet, the PlayStation, all of that? So he said, Well, you've been Aisha, why are you late? She said God Rasul Allah. And the way the reason why I was late, it was a religious issue was a good thing. I was in some way making thorough thorough with the women just chewing the cud, with the women talking out of his side of my neck with the women, just you know, smacking my lips and doing

00:37:17--> 00:37:36

the my lips my tongue the way the cow does, just talking clam fatty. There was a religious reason that caused me to be delayed. And that is, I heard one of your companions reading the Quran and will lie he, I never heard a recitation like that in my life. The Prophet heard that SallAllahu it was setting them

00:37:37--> 00:38:08

and he said, Show me Look how he wants to check it out for himself. He could ask a lot sinned. Jabril I want to know who is that? He says show me. He didn't have there in the middle. Hey, he wasn't housing nozzle. He knows the Unseen. He's omnipresent. He doesn't know who she was talking about. He wasn't there. That's why he said why are you late? If he was has now said he would have known why she was late. Yeah, eBUY the rock man Billahi Alikum. I asked you by Allah in the month of

00:38:08--> 00:38:22

Ramadan this year, leave off this horrid fat Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam knows the Unseen and Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is every play simultaneously lauhala he Kela

00:38:24--> 00:38:56

I heard him yet also let's go. So she took him. He went Salah why they were Salam. And he started listening. He said to her, that's my companion. That sad him the free slave of Apple who they thought and then he said Alhamdulillah Levy, Jai lemon on my team if you have other or praises or due to Allah, who has put in my ummah, a person like that, a person like that, plenty, pay attention. The Prophet when he listened to his companions of Allah, it was seldom.

00:38:57--> 00:39:26

He didn't get jealous at his recitation, hi, shall Allah some of the people if they find a person, from their contemporaries, their friends, their relatives, he reads the Quran with a more beautiful voice. We have have said, we are jealous. We have hacked we're against that. Prophet Muhammad didn't say in front of his wife, his jealousy. Why are you looking at that man? Why are you listening to that man? I know some people, they're jealous. They don't want their wives listen to this Daya that

00:39:26--> 00:39:59

Dialga jealousy But Muhammad wasn't like that. His wife heard the height of the keytab of Allah. He said to his wife, that is Salim the free slave of Abu they found all praises due to Allah that has put a person like that made a man like that. And my ummah. Why is it important to have a man like that? Because if we have people who are Quran reciters of the Quran and they can read, it will make us more inclined to come and listen

00:40:00--> 00:40:35

more inclined to go to Fudger back in New Jersey and I have to save it because I have a lot of people that I'd love for in New Jersey there's a mystic called Masjid as Hobley, Amin masjid, as homily Amin, or Fourth Avenue Masjid. They have a brother by the name of a chef Abdulaziz from Africa half naked tabula multiple knows what he's doing with the book of Allah. Well, Hamdulillah you go and you hear that man's recitation, you will be hard pressed not to go to listen to him for

00:40:35--> 00:40:52

Salat al Fajr. That recitation will give you more desire to get up to go listen to this man's recitation. All praises are due to Allah that has made a person like this and put them in my ummah. So if you look at some of these Quran today,

00:40:53--> 00:41:28

you like who you like, I like who I like she likes, who she likes, and so forth and so on. We look at some of these people today. My favorite reciter is the Somali chef, a chef, Abdul Rashid, Abdul Rashid Ali had, that man can recite that Quran. You listen to him, he makes you want to listen to the Quran. There is a man by the name of Mohammed Corradi. Right They will call the tremendous recitation of the Quran. He's from Kurdistan, the man from a Sudan His name is Nora rain. Mohammed

00:41:28--> 00:41:59

saw the Al Sadiq tremendous Quran, the Quran, you listen to that, and mashallah they connect the hearts of the community to the book of Allah by listening to the Quran and when he as I mentioned, the jinn are affected as he said in Surah, two Jin they listened to the Quran and they were affected by the Quran. The non Muslims even the people make *ter Allah Allah Tada mentioned in the Quran to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam were in ahead two men and most shakiness, the Jarrah

00:41:59--> 00:42:39

Katha Gil who had their smack and I'm Allah, yar Mohammed, if one of the Pali fee is the non Muslims, if they came to seek Your protection, then give them protection so that they can hear the speech of Allah the Quran per chance perhaps, they are going to be guided way that kurio Quran fancy to level was Samuel Fustat, mula once it hula hula cutter hormone. If the Quran is being read, then listen to it and be quiet in the hopes that you have Rama by listening to the Quran, being quiet and

00:42:39--> 00:43:10

listening to the Quran. Lila come to Hmong. There's going to be Rama as a result of listen to the Quran. The melodica when someone is reading the Quran in the masjid and the Muslims are learning and reading the Quran, he says Salah he was spending too much time on comfy Batum in boo Utila, yet Runa Kitab Allah he will get the data sunnah will female bayno in lenez Allah Tala Rama there is not a group of Muslims who come to the house the masjid and they read the Quran and they learn the Quran

00:43:10--> 00:43:40

two things that I mentioned. Had you read the Quran, not to learn it not to read it. He said they come to the Quran and domestic they hear the Quran. Whenever that happens, the kina comes down and the mala it could come down the mala it could come down and they surround them. That is an impact of the Quran. The monster the king of Quraysh the non Muslims, they used to hear the Quran they will embrace the Quran, Allah said about Al Kitab about the Christians that when they hear the Quran when

00:43:40--> 00:43:47

they hear the Quran, those people as he said, Tara you know whom tofield do minute dumb minute dumber men motto for men and

00:43:48--> 00:44:19

the Christians when they hear the recitation of the Quran, they listen to it, you will see tears coming out some of their eyes coming down some of their eyes because of what they know. It contains from the truth about what was said about Musa and or ISA and what happened and what's going to happen. yomo Kiama. So during the time of the Prophet, this was the situation sallallahu alayhi wa ala it was salam. So with that being the case, listening to the Quran, inquiry is important and I

00:44:19--> 00:44:53

can call by saying, we listen to the book of Allah azza wa jal because it is guidance, but the mere listening love it and to it gives Rama and it affects us. The prophets of Allah whoever you send, it will be sitting on his camera. The Quran will come down and the camera will fall down. The revelation will come to him the Quran with the camera will fall down Allah said in Saluki Anika Colin's tequila, we're going to reveal to you a statement that is heavier Mohammed loions and

Build this Quran and a mountain, the mountain would have fell down follow a Sunday out of the fear of Allah.

00:45:08--> 00:45:46

So if it hits the heart of a believer, it should affect them. Allah mentioned in the Quran in me known, a levena. irrevocable Allah, would you let Kulu boom, were either too late or lay him dead tone E minor. Why robbed him yet our call? Verily the real believers the true believers are those people who, when Allah is mentioned, when Allah is mentioned, their hearts tremble. Yeah he tequila. He takes he yaki feel LA. Yaki. Allah said this, Allah said that the person listens to it. Not like

00:45:46--> 00:46:21

the people who say, Man, I ain't trying to hear that. I ain't trying to hear that nonsense. Miss me with that nonsense. That could be a statement of coffee Biller, the ISA. Very true believers are those people who win allies Minchin the vicar of Allah, the Quran, the hookah whatever, the vicar of Allah, their hearts become tranquil in his fearing Allah and when His Ayat are being read that to me, man, they demand goes up, their demand goes up, even if they don't know the meaning of the

00:46:21--> 00:46:25

Quran. They are listening to and they say this is the canal of my Lord.

00:46:26--> 00:46:54

One of the great scholars was slammed from the tab in his name was Mujahid, Mujahid Mujahid he went over the Quran so many times with Abdullah ibn our bass more than 10 times. He said every ayat I will say to Abdullah Abdullah bass the companion What is this? I mean, what does that stop them at every ayat? So therefore, if the tafsir comes to you from Abuja, hey take it whenever Moon Jae would read the Quran out of respect he would take the Quran he would say key tab or a BE THE BOOK OF MY

00:46:54--> 00:47:15

LORD, and then he would kiss it out of respect. We see that happen with some of our elders. Some of them do this and put them on their head. Don't put it on your head, just kiss it because they celebrated that but some of the brothers look as as big as what are you doing? That says respect for the Quran. Take it easy. Verily the true believers are the ones when Allah is mentioned.

00:47:16--> 00:47:54

Lions mentioned their hearts become fearful and when his IATA read their Eman is increased and they totally absolutely dependent they rely on Allah with a telecoil another iron and there are many Allah Allah Tala mentioned in the Quran.

00:48:02--> 00:48:43

And then it says the same thing over here. It says it the same way or a different way with the shabby it resembles itself. And it is Nathania it repeats itself over and over and over and over again. It causes the skin of the believers to tremble. And then their skin and their heart shivers from the fear of Allah azza wa jal and the vicar of Allah for Bishop a baddie levena istemi Aruna give glad tidings to my servants who listen to the Quran and they follow our Center for yet Debbie

Listen to the book of Allah give some time to the listening of the Quran. When you go back to bed after fajr put the Quran on make it low. Listen to it.
