Adnan Rajeh – Post-Ishaa Khatera 14-07-2023

			But he was like you said I had eaten a collection of both Mojave muslin rainforests where our
beloved Nama and
		

			this is a long, Hades is called Hadith set out. That's enough. That's what they call the Hadith of
the three men. And you've heard this hadith I'm sure at some point in your life, maybe multiple
times, I'm not going to read the whole thing is a long one. So long Hadith, I just wanted to first
piece of it. It's actually one of the Hadith that requires a full lecture, or maybe even more, to
dive deep into the meanings and actually take all the gems and learn all of the lessons that the
Hadith teaches a very interesting Hadith in many ways. But I wanted to just focus on the piece that
I think is related to the theme of betrayal. What are you doing of treating your parent parents and
		

			relative Excellence, which is the theme that we're going to be sharing with you over the next number
of weeks. And there's what he said earlier salatu salam, I don't have context to this hadith,
brilliant, I don't have a con i don't have context. And neither neither does body nor Muslim, nor
the other scholars of Hadith, who because this hadith is in the in the two, so hey, and there's also
in other lesser collections or
		

			different collections. And I don't have context for this hadith. When I look, I started to I
remember years ago to see what context is this was this story told, like, what why did he tell the
story out of his thought was because you always look for stuff like that, is he What was he? What
was going on? What did he What was he confronted with? Or what was he trying to teach and I couldn't
find anything, it's just it's just a story. And it's an authentic one, but I just don't have good
context for it. So maybe he was just telling the story on your side was Ceramica just so that it
would live on and we could maybe take it and learn from it. So then when he says on his thoughts,
		

			and I'll just narrate the first piece of it, and the rest of it, you can read yourself if you're
interested and we'll I'll try and narrate it maybe fully at some point in the future. But the baina
that Eartha to fit in yet I'm showing on a Honda home one Mater the three got people were walking,
they're walking together taking a walk and and the rain, it rained heavily upon them for now Lu
ILAHA intelligible
		

			so they see sought reef refuge in a small cave. It's not really a cave. It's more of a
		

			cave when you think of the word cave because we all grew up watching Disney movies. When we say
we're a cave, we think something very wide. Doha is small. If you've been to America or Hearthstone,
you know, it's not it's not really a key, it's not like where you can go in there, you can put your
stuff and you can sit you can live there, it's more of just the an opening. See, Lara che is it goes
inwards. That's an Arabic anything that that that basically goes inward instead of outward. That's
what that's where the word disorder comes from. So it's like an inward inward a dent within within a
mountain or something. And that's what I was on. So it's not really a large area, it's very small,
		

			but they sought refuge from the rain just to get out of the rain. So they saw a dent in the in the
mountain. So they went in a circle but Salatin you know Jubilee family levar Aloka to it him. And
then a it was raining heavily and a boulder from the from the higher part of the mountain fell and
slammed right in front of this dent or this opening, and it completely blocked it off. And now there
are three is these three gentlemen are stuck in an area where they can barely move. They weren't
sitting in a cave where you can just walk down and then have all the Indiana Jones Yani stories
happen on the other side of the cave. You're just sitting there you have nowhere to move because the
		

			there's nowhere to go if they're completely
		

			shut shut in
		

			Bacala but I'll go home Liban so one of them said to the other side saying
		

			it has the one I'm learning I'm ill to Mohalla he Salia their own Hola Hola. Hola. Hola. Hola,
flowjo Ulagam forger. So they start saying to each other think of good deeds, think of good deeds
that you've done for the sake of Allah and ask Allah subhanaw taala with the blessing of those good
deeds or with those good deeds that he
		

			offers them an opening within this folder so you can get out
		

			so each one said something I'm not gonna say what they all said I'll just tell you the first one
then you can the topics are very intriguing honestly that the three things that they said the
concept that is worthy of contemplation just a little bit before we go to the first person is the
actual idea itself. Now it's not that they they went to this first it's not that they stood there
and they said okay, don't try and push the boulder No, no, no, we'll just do something different
we'll just make dwelling and just follow up No, they tried to push but there was nowhere to move.
There were no tools and you're stuck in an area where you can't you can't you can't go back you
		

			can't go forward if a boulder is not a pebble and it's not as small as it requires maybe meant upon
you need you need many men to move it so they're pushing us and it's not budging and if you if you
you know lived in an area where there are mountains you know that there are some times rocks that
are as big as a house. And if that rock was to cave you in you're not going anywhere. There's no
There's no hope of you getting through anything. So they had no tools they did not have by any means
the strength to do anything.
		

			So what was left? So they made dua. This doesn't mean that you only make dua when you have nothing
else to do. That's not That's not what this teaching this hadith is teaching. What it does teach is
that you always make dua, even in situations where it seems like there's no way out at all. You make
dua when you can do something about your problem, you make drought, when you have nothing to do
about your problem, you make dua at all times do i is a part of this story, your story of your life,
you make dua constantly about everything, you're gonna go ahead and try your best to achieve your
goals with all of with all of your mites, you will exhaust all of your resources to achieve them and
		

			you'll be making dua on the side all the time. It's a problem if you understand this hadith as in
Okay, when you can do anything you make drop, or when you know, you always make dua, whether you can
or you cannot make dua, but they had nothing, they had nothing they could do so they made dua, and
the idea was that they're gonna make dua through a deed that they did. And we don't have a lot of
examples of that in the in the Quran and Sunnah is very, very few of them, where you ask Allah
subhanaw taala by a deed that you did for his sake. And it's an important concept to understand
because they're going to ask Allah subhanaw taala Rob, I did this, if I did this, and at the time it
		

			was sincere is doing it for you. Grant me something, it doesn't mean that this is always going to
work. But that's the idea of Allah Subhan Allah will always accept your DUA, whether he gives you
what you want, when you ask for it or not. It doesn't. If you ask Allah for something, and you ask
for it sincerely, doesn't him accepting that DUA and granting you something for it does not
necessarily mean that you'll get what you want immediately. That's not what it means. The stories
that we find in the Sunnah is to give you examples of that happening so that you don't think that it
doesn't happen. It's not the opposite in these examples in sunnah is to say that, yes, you can many
		

			times make your own Allah, Allah grant you what you want, when you want it, it will happen. It's not
to say that it will always happen that way. Because any logical human being knows that it doesn't
always happen that way. You have to be living in la la land to think that it's always going to
happen that way. You mean you haven't lived life yet? That means you have not you have been so
shielded that you don't even know how life works to think that every time you ask Allah for
something, he will give it to you immediately when you ask for it. It's not that Aladdin's lamp
syndrome is a problem that's not how that's not our relationship with Allah subhanaw taala by any
		

			means. But these examples in the Sunnah are to say that it does happen and something that will
strengthen the probability of it happening is if you did something very sincere, and then the first
man spoke, this whole
		

			Yanni pretty proof that preface was just to make sure that you understood why this hadith is
important. So if I call it over to the first person said
		

			Allahumma, no occasionally, abalone shell johani can be the one who said oh Allah I used to have Oh,
two old parents, and
		

			we're going to label the home will help us to milk my cow. Patty Hema for a spear Houma bubbler a
spear. Well, Edie, you had children you had two parents he would he would milk the cows he would go
and make sure his parents were going to be given the milk first and then he will take it to his
children second,
		

			got a facility for surgery human and one day I got busy with it with the trees and everything for a
day to him which I asked him about and I came late for her to Humana me and they were sleeping I
thought how that's how late it was like a to an Oklahoma. I hated to wake them up for coffee when
Debbie Hema
		

			okra who and Ischia? Well, Eddie Coppola Huma I don't want to give my children before them for a
cough two will either be NL BB I had the milk standing for the door, well, whether the data is about
Hohner and Dakota, me and my children are standing beside me, give us the know, give us the milk for
walk off to the state of Iowa. And I waited until they woke up.
		

			Now that doesn't mean he necessarily won't wait until the morning. Old old people don't sleep for
eight hours straight. If you if you have an older person they bear they rarely go for eight hours
straight, usually two and a half hours or something and hopefully I can get up and go to the
bathroom where you have to do something. So he was standing there for a couple of hours and his
parents will come up to him tomorrow to elaborate and when we woke up and like give them their milk
and I went home Yarrow and Quinta Alamo and he filed to have leverage he called Kareem frigiliana.
If you heard the Sokrati for jet and no I mean ashrams, pathology, Allah who the who mean the fee
		

			for just 10 ships. They're all like, you know that I did this only for you. Like I wasn't waiting
for someone to say, Masha, Masha, what a good boy, what a good son. What an amazing person. I did
this for you. No one saw me and my children were crying the whole time was breaking my heart, but I
didn't anyway, because I want it to be I wanted it to perform better, to the best of my ability. Now
the interesting part of this story is, let's comment on what he did.
		

			How many of us think that's would you? If he if he gave his kids a little bit of milk and sent them
to sleep and then stood there wouldn't would it be acceptable?
		

			Would it be a problem? If he gave them a little bit of milk? He kept the gift but he won't let you
get the kids milk so he wouldn't wait. If he persists.
		

			Have the milk went home and came early in the morning and serve them to milk themselves? Would that
not be acceptable as well?
		

			I honestly wanted to hear the story like why did you just stand there for two and a half hours,
because bitter is explained to this this to you a few nights ago. It's subjective. It's based on the
person's experience to him. That's the best he got. And that's what he felt he owed them. And that's
what the relationship he had was with his parents was like, so he did what he to him was bitter. It
doesn't mean you have to hold yourself to that standard. That's not what this hadith is for this
hadith is to tell you that you should show your parents the best you've got. Meaning put yourself
one step further than what you would usually do in love of your parents for the sake of Allah
		

			subhana wa Tada. And because he did it, and he did it for the sake of Allah, He asked you out, if
you know they did it for you. And for no one else, then grant us an opening within this boulder so
we can see the sun. That's what he's doing. Because you're sitting in the dark. I didn't bring up
that piece.
		

			I told you about the space, the space is very difficult. What about the air? What about this? What
about the sun, you can't see anything. You have a phone, there's no flashlight, you're standing
there. It's very, very small, you can't breathe and you can't see anything. Pretty scary, you're
gonna see the sun. So ALLAH SubhanA granted them an opening and they saw the sun, and then the
second person needed to, and then another crack in the boulder and then a third person, man that
will refill and they left. And that's the Hadith and there's nothing else. There's no other
commentary, the prophet is gonna make no commentary on this. He just said that that's what happened.
		

			It doesn't mean that you walk around doing that every time you want something, but it's there to
explain the concept.
		

			That the power of doing something for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala is real. And Allah
subhanaw taala sees the value of you doing something sincerely for him, he sees belly when that to
the point where you can ask him to break the laws of of nature around you to grant you something you
want through one sincere act that you did for him Subhana wa Tada. That is real, and that will
occur. And the examples in the hadith is bitterly Dean, someone who said notify Aisha and someone
who just was extremely generous for the sake of Allah, someone who was so careful about the rights
of other people that he preserved someone's rights and would not touch it. Those are the three deeds
		

			in the 3d these deeds themselves, just the concept, just the topics are worthy of contemplation. But
also that the first one I think is the theme. theme related, elder, elder, they asked Allah to put a
crack in a boulder through a deed he did for the sake of Allah through His beloved validate of his
parents and he did Subhana wa Tada. That's the strength of believing Allah will break will break the
laws of nature for you.
		

			If you show it appropriately and do it for the right reason, and honestly, when it comes to bidding
when it didn't, there's no other way to do it. No one praises you for it. You have to your highest
it will be sincere for sure it'll be sincere. Hope that was a benefit to you. You got to win em and
