Smilla Rahmanir Rahim Al hamdu lillahi natto who when a stain or when it's still fertile? When are all loopy ly Himanshu Rudy and fusina Woman CDR ter Molina, Mayor de la who Philomel de la la Humann doodling fella heard the LA what a shadow era in La La What the Who last year he
was shadow under Mohammed bin Abdullah who rasuluh Salawat Allah He was sent Amma why they, uh, my Bible
as it was announced today is the third lecture in the series about spending time with the NABI sallallahu alayhi wa ala alihi wa sallam. And we'll be dealing with those times when Rasul Allah, He is on the line, it was seldom showed happiness, or he showed Joy was a really important issue. It's an important issue because some people unfortunately, have this idea and this concept that once you start practicing the religion, you have to look at the dunya with gloom and doom, and everything is
negative, the person sees the glass as being half full, or half empty. So he sees in his life things are not perfect. His children are perfect, his wife is not perfect, because Miss she does not perfect His house is not perfect. And because of that lack of imperfection, the person becomes very negative. So the point that some people they extinguish the light, and the spirit of the child, or the light, the spirit of the a wife, family members.
The Nabi SallAllahu sallam was commanded in the Quran called in NEMA and Bucha showroom flow calm you have Ilya tell them hi me I'm a human being like human beings, by revelation comes to me as a result of being a human being. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is going to go through all of the emotions that human beings gofal that are positive.
And the emotions that may be considered to be negative for an example. You're going to have to worry as a human being, the person is going to be sad. person, he has those emotions. Now I don't want anybody to misunderstand the prophets and the messengers Salawat Allah He was sit down, why didn't he remain? They never become people who give up hope. That's a negative emotion that they don't have.
They never give up hope to the degree where one of them wants to commit suicide. So there is a narration when the sower ikura Bismillah Kalevi helot was revealed. They said that the Nabil sallallahu alayhi wa sallam thought about throwing himself off of the mountain in order to kill himself lauhala he.
People have complete intellect. People have sound minds, they don't consider committing suicide. People who have mental problems and have issues, they are the people who think about committing suicide. So the point here is Rasulullah sallallahu what he was sending them, he had the whole gamut of emotions that people have because he's a human being. He is a human being. Allahu Taala mentioned in the Quran and know who who are at hacker UPCA verily, Allah is the One who makes you people laugh
and Allah makes you cry. And he mentioned both of them. He didn't just mentioned, he makes you cry, or he makes you laugh. He mentioned both of it. The meaning of the ayat, Allah makes you laugh and he makes you cry. And the hereafter, the non Muslims are going to cry in because of the coffer and the sheikh, and the mercy that they used to commit. And in the Hereafter, the believers are going to be laughing and they're going to be happy because of the Tawheed and the Sunnah. And the tar Atilla
obedience of Allah that they used to do, may Allah because we all die on this land that's in the hereafter. But also in the dunya. Allah is the One who makes you laugh, and Allah is the One who makes you cry. And both of those characteristics were mentioned polar opposites. So if you are a person who's laughing all the time, there's problem
laughing all the time and being a joke and cracking jokes and making people laugh. That's a problem. We don't want you in our Mejlis
because the
EBI sallallahu alayhi wa sallam used to tell the people Kathrada to the heck, to me to CALB always laughing over laughing will cause your heart to die.
And also in contrast, the person who is always upset and serious, we don't want you want our major this disease. We don't want you visiting us. We don't want you to be our saw him.
Because something's wrong. You can't be like that. And that's why I say whiny, that the dunya that we're living in, as Allah mentioned in the Quran, we're telecoil I am new da willowherb bein a NAS, those are the days that we cause people to go through. Sometimes you're up sometimes you're down sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. So when those Muslims migrated to a haberdasher in Ethiopia, and the king was asking Jaffa to be taller than the Muslims about Rasul Allah, He sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam, or the historical the historical of Rome. He said to the man to the Companions, this messenger that you believe in back in Mecca, when he has fights and wars with his enemy, does he win all the time? What happens? They said, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. No one's going to win all the time. No one's going to win all the time is up, and it's down. So I say, anytime in this life, we have valleys and we have peaks. That's how it goes. You have ups and downs. Anytime you'll
find in your life, like right now, there's some people stressed out right now they're in trouble. Someone has issues, financial troubles, social issues, he has mental issues, he's in trouble, he or she is in a fitna marital problems gonna break down, and they're not feeling very well right now. But all of us not feeling that way. So I say, and this is my advice. Because of the many valleys that we have, and it happens all the time, sooner or later, you're gonna have something you have to
deal with. I say, when you're falling at the top and something happens, then I say, ride the wheels off of that until the wheels fall off, right until the wheels fall off. Because pretty soon, you're going to be in the valley, it's going to be down. Don't be one of them to shut down people rough, tough people who your family can't tolerate you, the family that they can't tolerate you as a mother, as a father, people around you can't tolerate you because you're negative. And then some
people use the religion to do that. So you find this with practicing people. You'll find this with people practice from all of the groups. Not I don't want to deal with the other groups. But people were really trying to practice a Salafi meaning how the Companions understood the Quran and the Sunnah and practice it may Allah be pleased with them. Then you're the last person. You're the last person who should have Hulu and go overboard and people. You're the last person hole. When it comes
to, you know, living, you're the last person would be rough and tough like that. Because the Nebby wasn't like that. So Allah Allahu alayhi wa sallam, he used to laugh, as his companion said, every time I saw the Prophet and I met him sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he met me with a smile.
He met me with a smile. So there's a hadith that people use and that is the authentic hadith where he told us companions sallallahu alayhi wa sallam may Allah be pleased. He said, If you people knew what I knew, you will laugh less and cry more.
That's an authentic hadith. If you knew what I knew you will laugh a lot less and cry more. So the person is walking around like this all the time. I bet so what the Wallah, he's always like this, like Boo Hawaii Sera, vous Hawaii Sera. He was a man who came and say, I'm gonna give me some more money. You didn't try to be fair in this distribution of the money, give me some more money. And they describe him. They said he had big eyebrows, big eyebrows. And he had those marks in his head
in his forehead. And he was always looking upset crazy, to be honest with you. Why are you looking like Danny Abdullah? Prophet Muhammad said if you knew what I knew you will laugh less than cry more. Yeah, but it's comparing that in Cebu nomadic those companions said that every time they met him, he met them with a smile. So how do you harmonize that hadith, your understanding that I did the wrong way.
So we have to be balanced and that's what we want to show you today. Balance in Ellis lamb Allah Who levy ends al Kitab a bellhop will meet ZAN. Allah revealed the Quran in truth, and he revealed the skills to met Kalama to Rebecca septum Abdullah
The words of your Lord this religion, this religion has been complete with truthfulness and justice. Our religion is a balanced religion is not a religion that's to the right like this did not set off the Mustafi. The Serrata Mr. Kane is in the middle. So everything that Muslim does, he tries to do it in a balanced way. She tries to do it in a balanced way. Die ish, ISIS, those people are balanced. Because when they see people like us, and we're gonna slam, if you don't agree with
something, they say they're gonna kill you. What kind of religion is that? That you walk around mad at the whole world and you believe that's getting close to Allah. Now, that ish, ISIS, they don't have a monopoly on that I told you practice and people tend to be like that rough and tough with people, judgmental, intolerant, looking down at people with disdain, and no one has the right to do that because no one knows his relationship with Allah that Allah accepted, not accepted. So as it
relates to this issue of equality, we want to remain balanced because the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi wa sallam, he was a human being. So he's a person who had good times and he had bad times. The other issue that I want to mention is, I'm not going to deal with all of the times when Rasul Allah got happy. But I want to share with you an ayat that will help you to understand if anything happens to you in your life and is applicable to this is when you can be happy. And if people are
around you and they're not being happy for those things, you have to pull their code and school them and let them know something is wrong with you. You are not balanced man who has more than one wife. If he's giving one wife all of the rights and he's neglecting the other wife Rasul Allah said he will come your new piano and one of his sides will be dragging because he's not balanced, something's wrong.
He said, Don't wear one shoe either way, or both of them will take both of them off. That's the balance and the justice of Allah slam. Don't sit in a place where half of your body is in the shade and half of your body is in the sun. Get all in the shade or get all in the sun. This is the balance that the Prophet used to salAllahu alayhi wasallam strive to plant in the mines in the hearts of people. This is the statement of Allah Huhtala coal for the fatherly law who will be robbed Matthew
He for be there Nick a fella from whoo hoo Hi Roman my edge Marone tell your people Yeah, Mohammed Benny Adam, tell all of them
because of the father of Allah, and because of the Wrath of Allah, then you should be happy. This is better for you and better than what you're doing. Now I don't have time to get deep deep into this. If it's important if people use this is the wrong way. This is one of the main idea that people use for the moment it has nothing to do with the moment. It's i It has nothing to do with the moly because the moment is an innovation is outside of this religion. The Prophet did not bring that mole
in so people set by the Father love Allah, his father, his virtues and because of his Rama, be happy for that. That is better for you than what you do. So they say the prophets birthday sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is from the photo of Allah, the prophets birthday the day he was born, that is a Rama so because of this ayat, let's do the moment when you say hey hi hey hi.
Abu Bakr mirth man earlier of the line whom they didn't understand that I it that way. They gave the Tafseer of the iron and they never came to that conclusion. But this is when he very quickly
is is telling us anything connected to you in your life, that you can identify something that's from the problem of Allah and it's from the Rama of Allah, the eye is telling you
be happy because of that.
So anything you can think about, that is from the football love Allah and His Rama, you have a right to be happy. So when a person has a baby, he has every right to be happy and to celebrate. When a third person's son memorizes the Quran use Allah. He has every right to be happy. He gets married, happy, his daughter gets married son gets hot, marry happy, he gets a job happy. When those things happen, you get a new apartment in New flat a new house happy is celebrating time. But the end of
the is said who will hire a woman my judgment on being happy is better than what they're doing. But happiness is expressed according to the Quran and the Sunnah. So we have a walima for an example for the Nika we are going to we have the mica and we're going to be happy but what happiness the women are going to put makeup online and they don't wear hijab, Mother men around them. They're going to put
music on, we're going to be acting in mixing up not that kind of happiness.
Not that kind of happiness. Person gets married, and the man who got married the man and the one, they don't even pray, they go on a honeymoon, they don't even pray that there's not talking about that. This is talking about, if something is from the trouble of Allah and the Rama of Allah azza wa jal, then be happy, but be happy within the confines of the religion. So that's the general rule. We're not here to talk about everything that Prophet Muhammad did, where he showed the manifested
happiness from something that happened. But there are many things salAllahu alayhi wa that it was seldom, first one that we want to mention if money, and I'm pulling this out for reason, because I want to address today, the watershed, the dean, the rough and tough people, we don't want you around us like that. We don't want you to sit in our Mejlis with that. I'm holier than thou, and that intolerant way.
We don't want that. We have enough valleys that we have to deal with, with the problems that we don't need people bring into us that negativity. And the Nebby was a person SallAllahu Sallam who bought a religion, where he told us to be optimistic. Anyway, he asked the lady What's your name?
The lady said my name is ousia Not asiyah. Not as here like some of your daughters sisters know. I'll see the one who is disobedient and sin Rasul. Allah said, No, your name is Jamila. You're not disobedient. You're beautiful. He asked the man Where did you come from? The man came he said, I came from a dust bowl, where I come from no veget this is just a lot of dust is always blowing. Then they'd be sad. So I said, No, no, no, no, you came from a place where there's a lot of greenery.
He would go down one roll when he goes to their Eid, and he will come back home through the other way. Why did he do that? He couldn't win one street came down the same street scholars as Sam said, one reason he wants to get people sometimes more people on the two streets. Another reason I'm going down this way after fast in the month of Ramadan, and I'm coming back a different role. After praying the salah of Riedel fitter, and it's symbolic of I'm gonna be a change person, I'm gonna be
a better person. When he used to make this a lot of s this fall. So a lot for the rain special Salaat. He would take his clothes like his Bisht. He had a cape on, he asked if somebody would turn it inside out, take his hat, turn it inside out. Why do you do that? To say we hope things are going to change. He was optimistic. We don't want those people around us who are negative. We have enough negativity that we have to deal with. And we know them. We know Auntie's we know mothers, we know
fathers, we know relatives, we know friends, they just straight up hate us. Go over and find Zawawi as some way and hate on your own and let that negativity, devour you and destroy you as far as we're trying to be on the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu it was sending. So there was a Jewish kid that everybody knows someone in the semester kid is the newest Muslim here. Someone is the youngest Muslim here, and everybody in this audience has Shala we know about that hadith that has not escaped
us. It's been handed down to us generation after generation because so important. The Jewish boy was that had them of Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam taking care of them. And then the boy became sick. Because sometimes you're well and sometimes you have sick, you born and you're gonna die, have up you have down. That boy was taken care of the Nibi became sick and it was clear the boy was going to die. Rasul Allah went and gave the boy Tao was salam, Allah who it was selling. C'est la ilaha illa.
Allah, the little boy looked at his father. And the father said, obey Him, listen to what he has to say a tear, I will curse him listen to him. The boy said the shahada, and then he died. They say that the Prophet came out SallAllahu wasallam in a form of expression of being happy, and selling Hamdulillah he Levy and other women and now BIA, All praise is due to Allah Who saved that boy from the Hellfire because of me with my dour. He was a yo who did who Allah said about them in the Quran
that he didn't shed the Nursey or die with to Latina Allah No, Alia who will live in ash Rocco. Those people who hate the people of Islam the most likely who like it, hate it, who hate it, it's the reality. Those people who hate the people of Islam the most, you'll find the ones with the most enmity and animosity to
was the people of Islam or the yahood. And the people who make sure the poly theists, Sikhs, Hindus of India, they have a burning hatred for Islam and the Muslims. And that's why, if they are given the ability to exterminate them, they'll exterminate them, burn them to death.
That's the book of Allah, this boy was a yo hood. And yet when he came into the religion, the companion said in May the Prophet happy some of the law when he was set it up, that he made that dua. Now I chose that example to be the first thing I'm going to deal with to say to you, how is it possible and when I asked you people, how was it possible? You see, people are Muslims and they came into the religion, and you're not happy for them.
And you're not happy for them. You hear some really crazy things from the people's understanding.
If my mother came into this religion, May Allah guide her to Al Islam. If my mother as I tell her my let's say, let's say Ma, let's say, just say like Eli alum, I'm going to Salah don't worry about no salah. Now, don't worry about no hijab. Now, don't worry about no Reba mortgage, don't worry about none of that. Just c'est la ilaha illa, manga Rasulullah. We crossed those other bridges when we get to it. And that's because if my mother die without the deen, she's going to be the hot tub from the
night of Jana. But as she came into this religion, she has a chance Shala she comes into the religion. Someone says I don't have the right to be happy because she's not on the Sunnah. Come on, man. She's not on Asuna I wanted to be on a Sunday. No, I wanted to blow up. I don't want her to be with the innovators. I don't want them to do that. coming through the door of a slamming jump out of the window. Because of innovation. I don't want that. But being a Muslim is better than not being a
Muslim.
The Prophet was happy. So yes, our children, they are not perfect. When it Hamdulillah, they are Muslims. They may not always say Bismillah. And we have to keep telling them, Hey, did you say Bismillah? Hey, say Bismillah before you eat, you get in the car, they won't give you sometimes
you have to keep did you give sometimes you have to keep telling your kids that that may be the case, but they're better than
being in a state where they don't have Islam at all. So if you find that a person is on this religion, I'm not saying to applaud people for the mistakes that they make. In a sense, I'm not saying that. I'm saying look at the bigger picture. Because from the happiness that came from the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa either it was setting them is the fact that he showed to the Companions, what it meant to him that his Dawa was successful, by Allah's permission. Another sad
situation, during that
sickness of Rasulullah sallallahu it was selling he was dying.
And the whole community was affected by the reality that he was sick, and he was sick in a way that they never saw before. They didn't know what was going to happen, but they knew he was sick. And one of the proofs that he was really sick was he stopped praying in the masjid. He stopped praying in the masjid.
So after staying home for a number of days, he felt a little bit better. And then two of his companions were with him and they went to the masjid. As everyone knows, there was a song in the Quran called Al Herat. The inner partners, the doors of the prophets wise were connected to the masjid SallAllahu was sending them so he could just come out of the masjid and have come out of his house, go straight to the web. He had to deal with the people to message it easy access. He came out
of his house where his grave is and where he's buried right now. Salah who it was
he was holding on to one man on his side, the other man on his side. When he got to the door and he saw the Muslims praying Salaam in JAMA. They said he smiled and he showed his pleasure at what was taking place.
If you knew what I know you will laugh less and cry more. Why didn't me Why Did he cry right now? Why did he become angry at that moment? Because that statement is not applicable here. He came out he saw the condition of the Muslims. They were behind Abu Bakr Siddiq, the most knowledgeable of them and the best one from amongst them. They were in this alert that he brought to them. The most important pillar of Al Islam from the actions of Salah nothing is more important than the shahada
team. Arabs didn't know this a lot before Jamia so he knows he's going to die. So Allah Allah who it was sending him but he knows as long as these people read the Allah and whom in his community, hold on to this a lot. And what's connected to it? They're going to be okay. They leave this prayer and what
is connected to it, then you're going to have Syria, you're going to have India, you're going to have Palestine, you're going to have Iraq, you're going to have Somalia and the rest of the Muslim world this was going to happen. It's going to be a direct reflection of where the salaat is in our community in our lives. So I want to say, especially to my students, young brothers, you guys got to do a better job with praying.
Maybe you can't pray in the masjid because you got to get ready to go to school. But we all love the Prophet of Allah slam, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and we know that he was a person who had been inspired by Allah, he gets happy at those things that deserve for you to get happy with. He was happy when he saw the Muslims praying. So again, flower Shabbat girls and boys, if you hit the age of 10, you should start praying, you're 1314 1516 20 you have to pray. It's Whadjuk you absolutely
have to pray. He told us Allah Allahu Allah, He will send them the difference between us. And then it's the prayer. Whoever abandons the prayer. He's disbelieved. So that's the second multipath from those things, or the second situation where the people became happy. And I want to say this right now. Any parent who was here,
or any older brother or sister you have a sibling, especially you parents, you have a child, who will make will do on his own or her own, and they go and pray on their own, you should make such little sugar.
You should make such a shocker. Because Allah has blessed you. He bless you. If your kid can sit here, whatever he's doing homework, on the telephone, bleh station, watching TV reading the book, when they hear the event goes off on the clock or the alarm, and they get up on their own. You didn't say anything, your wife didn't say anything. They got up on their own and they prayed. You should think Allah for that kid.
And hold on to that cultivated, because it is not the norm. It is not the norm. I can't speak for anybody here because I don't know your situation is not the norm.
So once again before moving on, and next thing we want to encourage our community, but it says applicable to everybody, but especially for our youngsters, because you guys have a responsibility to maintain it protect this religion. You're the upcoming generation Inshallah, and these people are trying to change our religion. You are not a Muslim. If you're not praying, You're something else. You're something else. Muslims pray, the way we pray the Salah.
The next motif of the NABI sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi wa sallam
is what happened in the seventh year of the hatred
that you hold. They used to create a lot of problems men and Medina and they were three tribes. And one of the places that the whole were in control of was a place that's close to Medina called Haber. Haber.
So Allah when any conquered that place, sallallahu alayhi, wa salam, and in favor, there was a lot of wealth that came from the place and they subdued the yahood. So it was hired, there was a lot of good. The Muslims needed money. But yeah, who would make in trouble for them. So the Prophet effectively SallAllahu wasallam by defeating them, he cut off the drama and the fitna and the Mushtaq and the problems that those particularly your hood are given the community dealt with them.
And in addition to that, he established the religion of Islam even further in the peninsula.
And also in addition to that, all of the hair that was in favor, he was able to take the stuff from the fruit, the dates, all of the animals, and he gave it to the community and it helped the Muslims.
And the same year after that happened, his cousin Jonathan ibn Abi Taalib, came from alhaja because he was one of the people who made hedgerows twice he went to Ethiopia and he was in charge of the Muslims. He's the brother of Ali ibn Abi Talib rod, the Allah Allah. Prophet Muhammad says sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and Jaffa King. I don't know. Which of the two make me more happier. Makes me more afraid.
Am I more happy that we can't get haber with all of the good and the benefit that he gave the community or the fact that my cousin is here?
The relationship that the prophet had with it similar to the one we
If Jaffa although Ali is better than Jeff and he was closer, so the Prophet marry his daughter Fatima to IDBI Vitaly, both of them grew up in the house of Naboo. But they were
paternal cousins and they were close. Jaffa accepted Islam and Mecca. He left with the Muslims and he went to Ethiopia. For seven years he was gone from the NABI SallAllahu Sallam even more than that, he was away from him 1213 years he was away.
And then when Prophet went to one Medina Jaffa came in his seven year Rasul, Allah said, I don't know which one of these two things makes me more happy. So it goes to show number one, anytime Muslims stay, they are the recipients of something that is beneficial. And that lets slam is on top. And then the slam wins. Anytime that happens, we should be happy. And anytime something negative happens to Muslims, we shouldn't be happy about that. Even if it's not our country, someone else's
country.
Saudi Arabia, some people don't like Saudi Arabia, for whatever reasons, Wahhabi Arabs, whatever. Not the Muslim is not like that. Muslim, not like that. I just give you an example of Saudi Arabia because that's where the two harms are. Some people don't take Saudi Arabia Side of the Moon. Some people don't want to do the hijab during the days that Saudi Arabia, Hajj. The Muslim says no, I don't care what country it is. Libya, and never been to Libya, my life, never. But what's going on
in Libya right now? No Muslim in his right mind, just say this is something that is celebratory. No. How could it be when the Muslims as the Quran said you should do bad on Baba or the Prophet said SallAllahu wasallam. The Muslims are like one solid seeming to structure and they support one another. So when they conquer those people whose benefit to slam he was happy. And also when he was happy that his cousin King
have relatives is from the Wrath of Allah and the father of Allah, someone coming from a long trip or you re hooking up with someone that you were not hooking up with before. Maybe you were married to the lady and then you re marry her again, whatever the case is, whatever the your interpersonal relationship is, this hadith is teaching us Rasul allah sallallahu. wasallam, used to be protective and used to maintain and take care of his relationships with people, especially in his relatives,
especially. So when they come from trips, it is from our religion, to show our joy. And it's from our religion, as well, to make them the guests of Dennis, that came from * Amara, that came from the country, whatever the case is. So that is an example of how the Prophet was just a balanced person. So Lola, who are you sending be honest, when I mentioned it to you, in this example, I think this is a sea that's in everybody's heart and mind anyway. I don't think there's anyone out of all
these people watching these sisters who are listening, I don't think there's a single person who says to himself, I can't be happy when I hook up with my relatives. But there are some people of our Ummah like that because they can't get along with their relatives. They don't get along with their relatives. They don't get along with their family, they wise family and so forth and so on. So this is a time when the Prophet showed and express never manifested its happiness Allah Allah who I need,
he will i It was said, so what do you think is the case? If that was how we felt about Jaffa whose cousin? What do you think his case is? When he has grandchildren? Oh, mama, for an example, Hassan and Hussein. He used to sit with those kids sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and rob the ally known and used to take water and put it in his mouth and blow the water to the water on them joking and laughing with his kids just to make them happy to spend time if his grandchild died, he cried. He
was sad. That's when he cried. And that's when he was sad. But when his grandchild came, and he saw him do something, he would pick him up, he will be happy.
So I don't know. I don't know about that. Father. I don't know about that father who is physically abusive to his kids, you need to be dealt with.
You need to be dealt with. And I don't endorse what they used to do back in America. I don't endorse it. When the Muslims first started practicing African Americans in America. They had this group called the DAR and other brothers who came into al Islam. If an individual would beat up his wife or beat up his kids, you going down in the basement in the mosque.
Now I'm support vigilante justice. I don't, I don't, but some of our children our families are living in fear.
My file is gonna crack my head open if I laugh, my father is gonna, he's gonna do light me up if I make a mistake no. Am I saying that we can't chastise our children? Can we because we deal with them, chastise them for big issues like he said, you can hit them. When they hit the age of 10. They reach the age of 10. And they don't pray. You can chastise them.
Over Salaat something insignificant. There's another thing. You show me one person in here one person in here who, when he was young, and he was growing up, he didn't make mistakes and he didn't make bonehead moves. That's what kids do. They make bonehead decisions and moves. The mother told her son, the mother told her son, let's say this son is memorizing the Quran.
He is memorizing the Quran probably memorize more of the Quran than most of us here.
The mother said, go upstairs and bring me those pins that are on the dresser. I have to see him go give me the pins
ran upstairs. And he came back with a towel.
A towel. And he gave it to the mother. The mother said what is that? What? What is the towel for? He said I don't know. And it doesn't it doesn't make sense. You can't get your head around, go and get the pins. And it comes back with a towel.
Would it be good turtle beer? And would it be Islamic? And would it be fairing just to beat that kid
to slap them?
Someone sent me a video on WhatsApp. They said send this video around and make it go viral so that they can catch this lady. And I remember a long time ago, there was a Muslim guy. He had a little baby girl who cannot stand up yet she wasn't ready to stand up. Not even holding on to the table. And the guy was slapping the little baby. I'm sure some of you seen that. And they caught that guy from our community. So when they told me do this send it. I looked at it. The little girl vomited.
And the lady was standing over her tower and over her slapping her Why did you vomit and the girl was clean and clean and clean it
and that was the beginning of the video. I knew there was more to come and watch the rest. Because when it comes to kids like that is disturbing.
So we want to tell our community especially our Shabaab, you little brothers, if you're being beat up and attacked like that, by your mother by your father, you're being bullied in school as always tell you, you let us know inshallah we'll try to help to deal with the situation. You fathers, mothers, anybody who's an abusive parent, It's haram. Haram Ali, take it easy
from the Mocha, that the prophet has sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
is that when the Quran was revealed to him, he used to become very happy especially certain Sutras of the Quran sallallahu alayhi wa sallam like Surah Al Fattah.
And for Tana laka Fatima Bina that higher Hadith or that surah was letting them know he's going to conquer Mecca.
He said a surah came down to me last night and it has made me happy. That's just one source of the Quran.
There are other Surah of the Quran and other ayat of the Quran that are greater than Surah Al Fattah. So you look at the whole Quran, that's an issue is the following from Allah so Rama from Allah, something that makes the Nabil of Islam happy. SallAllahu wasallam. So we want to tell our kids especially the ones who are memorizing the Quran, when you go to the Quran school, the Doxy and the Madras of the Quran, and when you make him Raja, don't look at going over the Quran as being
arduous and it's a task and you don't want to do it. I do understand some of you go to school all day. By the time you get to Quran school or out of Quran school, you're tired, you're tired, but the Prophet of Islam sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he never looked at the Quran and that way, Allah will try to mention to him in the Quran. ta ma Enzo miles Olalekan Quran li Tushar, we did not reveal this Quran to you. To make things difficult as a parent had to take into consideration. My daughter
is tired.
She'd been in school all day. I'm gonna send it to the school today. I do that once in a while. You have to do that once in a while, give a break. But you can't do that every day or two three times a week. Got to let them know the Quran.
It requires some commitment. And it's the best evaluator that you can be doing at this age. So just keep with the program, because you'll appreciate later on. So for our youngsters, you have to know the Prophet of Islam SallAllahu sallam, he looked at the Quran, and the Quran was not something that made him angry. It wasn't something that he beat people because of it. You go to the madrasa and your teacher is hitting you in the madrasa. You have to let us know. We don't condone any teacher
hitting us in the kids in the madrasa. Not at all. And don't come and tell me that Mujahid said that even a bass used to tie his leg up with a chain and that the Companions used to hit the youngsters. Whenever they were swear by Allah they would say well Allah He they will hit them to teach them Don't swear by Allah a lot. Don't make that your dean dinner. Don't tell me that, because I believe that, and I know that. But nobody should be touching anybody else's kid. No one should be touching
anybody else's kid. It's not your kid. Then don't chastise people's children. We're living in a society right now in the daily time right now. People are stealing our kids, they kidnapping our kids from the masjid molesting your kid? No. Quran is a cause and a reason for happiness. As for the older members of the community, same thing. What is it about the Quran that we don't connect with the book of Allah azza wa jal, the way that we could and the way that we should. I'm going to stop
here when you brothers have any questions you shot lines with Joe, I was just trying to show you just a few of the issues. I think this topic this theme of the series is an important thing, connect our community to the balance that the prophet had sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and that he used to be sad, and he used to be happy, and he used to become angry, and he used to cry sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he used to have bewilderment. He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam as I said, he had the gamut
of emotions that people have except the negative ones. Like those emotions, where a person wants to commit suicide, he is disbanded he's given up hope. Salah didn't have that sallallahu alayhi wa sallam okay when if you guys have any questions you can put your questions for Linda calm che.
What is the difference between happiness and contentment? Contentment in Arabic is alakina.
Which contentment arena?
Which contentment? Hmm.
But which one which one you talking about?
Like when you just satisfied with what Allah is giving you and you feel satisfied?
Yeah.
You don't necessarily have to be happy when you are content. You don't have to be happy.
A Muslim as the Hadith said, IG been men among men, whether you're Kunal Delica, elderly movement, the Prophet said, I'm amazed at the condition of the believer, and that's only for the believer. If good hits him, he thinks a lot and that's good for him. And if evil hits him, he's patient, and that's good for him. So a person has a job making minimum wage and that's all he can get. He's not going further than that in his life. Minimum wage. He put his best foot forward. He tried his best,
that's his job. But he is content with that situation. He doesn't look at other people and wish evil on them and have evil eye against them and has jealousy towards them and envy. He says this is my son from Allah azza wa jal and I live with it doesn't mean he's happy with that situation. Doesn't mean that he's happy. He's a person whose content as the Hadith said and that's what I was asking are you talking about the one was Rena he has enough he or contentment like the hadith of a Sunni
now he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Lacell Hina and Catherine Laurel, Allah Hina Haman knifes. It is not being rich being contentment with money that you have a lot of wealth but real being real richness. Real wealth is being satisfied with what Allah has given you. And Allah knows best any more questions that when any more questions? Okay then McDuffie, we have a cousin ha That was SallAllahu wasallam Mubarak and another beginner while early he was hobby and Jemaine was sent on my
they come up to like what Bearcat
Oh, give me that pin.
