Quote to being something the prophet said.

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

Meaning,

00:00:34 --> 00:00:36

the status of the quote by saying it's

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

something the prophet

00:00:37 --> 00:00:40

said, himself said. And the hadith is it

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

was in the of course, the series of

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

humbleness, which is I'm going to be sharing

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

with you this week and next week, inshallah.

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

It's gonna be 6 hadith in in total.

00:00:46 --> 00:00:47

6 hadith in total.

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

Yes, everyone. And the lady

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

said,

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

Allah says, these hadith is couldn't see in

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

this nature.

00:01:06 --> 00:01:08

So he said, whoever it is, the prophet

00:01:08 --> 00:01:08

says whoever,

00:01:10 --> 00:01:11

humble themselves

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

to me or for me like this. And

00:01:14 --> 00:01:17

the father, alayhis salatu wasalam, turned the

00:01:18 --> 00:01:20

other part of his hand to the ground

00:01:20 --> 00:01:22

and brought it closer to the ground like

00:01:22 --> 00:01:24

this one like this, Ali. So it was.

00:01:24 --> 00:01:25

But

00:01:33 --> 00:01:33

He said,

00:01:36 --> 00:01:38

I will elevate his status like this, and

00:01:38 --> 00:01:40

he turns his hand around, and he put

00:01:40 --> 00:01:41

his hand up towards the sky, alayhis salatu

00:01:41 --> 00:01:43

wa sallam, like this. So you know the

00:01:43 --> 00:01:45

adis that are physical.

00:01:45 --> 00:01:46

Meaning, when you know a little bit, you

00:01:46 --> 00:01:48

have to make, you have to make some

00:01:48 --> 00:01:49

moves, and you have to do it as

00:01:49 --> 00:01:51

the Sahabi did. So so some hadith

00:01:51 --> 00:01:54

with a movement, with a gesture, in a

00:01:54 --> 00:01:55

specific position.

00:01:56 --> 00:01:57

This and this is this is a an

00:01:57 --> 00:01:59

element in the this science of hadith that

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

not only that the natives,

00:02:09 --> 00:02:12

as he did alayhis salaam. And this hadith

00:02:12 --> 00:02:14

is one of them where he made these

00:02:14 --> 00:02:16

movements alayhis salaam. He said, Allah

00:02:16 --> 00:02:18

says, they ever humble themselves to me like

00:02:18 --> 00:02:19

this

00:02:21 --> 00:02:23

or raise their status like this.

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26

And this is and this is zani one

00:02:26 --> 00:02:28

of the hallmark of zani a hadith

00:02:29 --> 00:02:30

with regarding humbleness.

00:02:31 --> 00:02:34

That you must that by nature, you're enough

00:02:34 --> 00:02:36

to do it. You have to actually do

00:02:36 --> 00:02:37

it yourself.

00:02:38 --> 00:02:40

Like, humbleness will not occur naturally.

00:02:41 --> 00:02:43

You have to win it upon yourself.

00:02:43 --> 00:02:45

Like, you have to teach yourself how to

00:02:45 --> 00:02:46

do it and you have to find out

00:02:46 --> 00:02:49

why it's important to be done. If you

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

leave,

00:02:50 --> 00:02:52

the will not make this conclusion on its

00:02:52 --> 00:02:55

own. It will do the absolute opposite.

00:02:55 --> 00:02:56

Like,

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

if left to, you know, to choose what

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

it's going to do, it's not gonna make

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

that choice. It's going to make the other

00:03:01 --> 00:03:04

choice 10 times out of 10. It's going

00:03:04 --> 00:03:06

to look for arrogance and vanity, and it's

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

going to try and see itself to be

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

superior to others. It's going to try

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

to demean other people and, raise its own

00:03:12 --> 00:03:14

status above others. That's what it's going to

00:03:14 --> 00:03:17

do every time. So you have to actually

00:03:17 --> 00:03:18

do this yourself. You have to make a

00:03:18 --> 00:03:18

choice

00:03:19 --> 00:03:21

of humbling yourself for the sake of Allah

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

Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, which is an easy easier

00:03:23 --> 00:03:24

said than done,

00:03:25 --> 00:03:27

and concept means easy when you say it,

00:03:27 --> 00:03:29

but you understand what that means, takes a

00:03:29 --> 00:03:32

little bit of time. Hallelujah is is

00:03:32 --> 00:03:33

it understand this, take this as a mission,

00:03:33 --> 00:03:33

and think about it as you drive home

00:03:33 --> 00:03:33

today. Hallelujah is

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

artificial,

00:03:43 --> 00:03:44

within the reality.

00:03:45 --> 00:03:46

It's non artificial

00:03:47 --> 00:03:50

concept. It's not you're artificially bringing yourself from

00:03:50 --> 00:03:52

a higher position to a lower position. It

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

is your ability to see reality as it

00:03:54 --> 00:03:55

is.

00:03:55 --> 00:03:57

Reality as it is, is that we are

00:03:57 --> 00:03:58

all

00:03:58 --> 00:03:59

absolutely

00:03:59 --> 00:04:00

the same.

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

We're all absolutely

00:04:02 --> 00:04:03

equal. There is nothing

00:04:03 --> 00:04:05

that makes any of us better than anyone

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

else. That's that is the reality of the

00:04:08 --> 00:04:10

matter, that we at Tuirav, and will return

00:04:10 --> 00:04:12

to Taib al Adri that we are destined

00:04:12 --> 00:04:14

to the soul, and we return again. And

00:04:14 --> 00:04:16

there is nothing that we possess,

00:04:16 --> 00:04:19

that we actually made ourselves, so there's no

00:04:19 --> 00:04:22

reason for us to feel superior to anything,

00:04:22 --> 00:04:24

for whatever, to people, to anything that is

00:04:24 --> 00:04:26

alive or non alive.

00:04:26 --> 00:04:27

That is the reality.

00:04:28 --> 00:04:30

The next level like that reality, so we

00:04:31 --> 00:04:33

will refuse to acknowledge it, accept it, and

00:04:33 --> 00:04:36

live by it. So you have to take

00:04:36 --> 00:04:38

time to understand it yourself so that you're

00:04:38 --> 00:04:41

able to hone in yourself to where you

00:04:41 --> 00:04:42

need to be. That's why we did like

00:04:42 --> 00:04:44

this alayhis salaam. So come down to the

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

earth from which

00:04:46 --> 00:04:46

you

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

emerged. It's not that you are less or

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

that you are lower. No. It's just you

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

are from the earth. So bring yourself down

00:04:53 --> 00:04:55

to where the earth is and feel that.

00:04:55 --> 00:04:57

And feel and feel good about it because

00:04:57 --> 00:04:58

that's where you come from. It's fine.

00:04:59 --> 00:05:00

And if you do that, then Allah

00:05:01 --> 00:05:03

He will elevate your status

00:05:04 --> 00:05:06

in a different place, in a different way

00:05:06 --> 00:05:08

in a different time, in a different way.

00:05:09 --> 00:05:10

But you need to in order for it

00:05:10 --> 00:05:13

to elevate your status, you have to acknowledge

00:05:13 --> 00:05:15

the reality of who you are and where

00:05:15 --> 00:05:17

you came from and what you are. And

00:05:17 --> 00:05:19

if without doing that, then you that doesn't

00:05:19 --> 00:05:22

work. If you if you don't, it doesn't

00:05:22 --> 00:05:23

work. This takes time. It takes time to

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

because the next doesn't like this. You're probably

00:05:25 --> 00:05:27

listening to this, you don't even like yourself.

00:05:27 --> 00:05:29

But that's okay. This is the reality of

00:05:29 --> 00:05:31

the matter, is that we are we are

00:05:31 --> 00:05:32

servants.

00:05:33 --> 00:05:35

What good servant has a big ego?

00:05:37 --> 00:05:38

If you have a servant, then you have

00:05:38 --> 00:05:40

A big ego is not something a servant

00:05:40 --> 00:05:42

is A good servant doesn't have an ego.

00:05:42 --> 00:05:43

A

00:05:43 --> 00:05:45

good servant is not interested in in what

00:05:45 --> 00:05:47

in what you're doing for them and what's

00:05:47 --> 00:05:49

in it for them. A servant just does

00:05:49 --> 00:05:50

whatever it is they're requested to do by

00:05:50 --> 00:05:53

their master. Now, alhamdulillah, and, you know, we

00:05:53 --> 00:05:55

don't have enough a left much left of

00:05:55 --> 00:05:56

there's a lot left of it. He's just

00:05:56 --> 00:05:58

not as apparent. And but when it comes

00:05:58 --> 00:06:00

to Allah subhanahu alhamdulillah, he is the master,

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

and I am the servant. A good servant

00:06:02 --> 00:06:03

doesn't really have much of an ego when

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

he served his master, subhanahu wa ta'ala. But

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

that requires understanding

00:06:08 --> 00:06:10

what I am and what he is, subhanahu

00:06:10 --> 00:06:12

wa ta'ala. I think this is the first

00:06:12 --> 00:06:13

time you've got or the, you know, the

00:06:13 --> 00:06:15

opening video for us to talk about this,

00:06:15 --> 00:06:16

so I hope you will reflect on some

00:06:16 --> 00:06:18

of these ideas, and I'll continue to explain
