Today inshallah ta'ala we're going to I'm going

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

to attempt to, complete or conclude Surah Al

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

Munafiqoon

00:00:13 --> 00:00:14

if I can.

00:00:16 --> 00:00:17

I'm very I have a very bad track

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

record in getting these these things done, but

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

we only have 1 3 4 more verses

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

left. The problem is that the verse that

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

we're in, number 8, has a long story

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

attached to it. So I'm gonna

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

tell you the story and the story will

00:00:30 --> 00:00:31

take a little bit of time. But inshallah,

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

subhanAllah,

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

during

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

fall and spring, the timing between maghrib and

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

isha becomes, convoluted, very long. So these are

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

these are the longest halakat that I run

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

throughout the whole year. It's the ones that

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

I run between Malmab and Isha within like

00:00:45 --> 00:00:48

April, May June, because it's around an hour

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

and maybe 10 minutes or 15 minutes. I

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

don't mind, but I know that people do.

00:00:54 --> 00:00:56

Never give a sheikha mekrifu because the moment

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

he starts talking you'll never stop. So I'm

00:00:58 --> 00:01:00

gonna go through we'll go inshallah until Isha'at,

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

but I think we'll have enough time to

00:01:02 --> 00:01:04

finish it. So what is let me a

00:01:04 --> 00:01:05

quick recap.

00:01:05 --> 00:01:06

Surat Murat

00:01:06 --> 00:01:07

Yqun.

00:01:07 --> 00:01:09

We're coming towards the end of Jazit Taba,

00:01:09 --> 00:01:12

Jazit Mujadirah, which is the cluster of Surahs

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

from the Mujadirah to Tahrim. And this whole

00:01:14 --> 00:01:15

halaqa

00:01:15 --> 00:01:17

designed to begin with Surat Qaf and end

00:01:17 --> 00:01:19

with Surat An Nas.

00:01:19 --> 00:01:21

This is called the mufasal, the comprehensive.

00:01:22 --> 00:01:23

All of this the Quran's

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

values are basically

00:01:25 --> 00:01:27

summarized in these surahs.

00:01:27 --> 00:01:30

The first cluster of Surah and Qafdul Hadid

00:01:30 --> 00:01:32

talked about comparisons, ethical and value based comparisons

00:01:32 --> 00:01:34

that we talked about in some degree of

00:01:34 --> 00:01:36

depth over the past year and a half

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

or 2. And then the second cluster of

00:01:38 --> 00:01:39

Surah Al Mujadilatul

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

Tareem.

00:01:41 --> 00:01:42

They're organizational

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

Surah because they're Madani, they're all

00:01:45 --> 00:01:47

revealed they were all revealed in Madinah.

00:01:47 --> 00:01:49

Most of them, if not all of them

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

were late Madani Surahs, meaning they were come

00:01:51 --> 00:01:52

towards the end of his life alaihis salatu

00:01:52 --> 00:01:54

wa sallam. And they talk about organizing,

00:01:55 --> 00:01:58

the the relationships Muslims have with different groups,

00:01:58 --> 00:02:00

whether themselves or others or

00:02:01 --> 00:02:03

They're very organizational fiqh based surahs,

00:02:04 --> 00:02:05

and they're very short, and they summarize

00:02:06 --> 00:02:08

surahs that are much longer than them in

00:02:08 --> 00:02:09

the earlier

00:02:09 --> 00:02:11

parts of the Quran. And we went through

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

the first maybe

00:02:12 --> 00:02:15

6 or 5 or 6 surahs. Sultan Mujada

00:02:15 --> 00:02:18

organized the relationship between Muslims and other Muslims.

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

Whether

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

spouses,

00:02:20 --> 00:02:22

or companions, or people who work together, or

00:02:23 --> 00:02:24

followers and their leaders,

00:02:25 --> 00:02:27

organize organized that aspect. The nature of the

00:02:27 --> 00:02:29

relationship between Muslims and other Muslims within the

00:02:29 --> 00:02:31

community. Surat al Hajj talked about citizenship.

00:02:32 --> 00:02:34

The different types of people within the country,

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

kind of what to deal with, how to

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

deal with them. So the Al Mu'tahi'ina talked

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

about the and kind of what to deal

00:02:43 --> 00:02:44

with, how to deal with them. So it's

00:02:44 --> 00:02:46

Ibn Mun Tahina talked about the relationship between

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

Muslims and non Muslims. Whether they are non

00:02:49 --> 00:02:51

Muslims who are combative versus non Muslims who

00:02:51 --> 00:02:52

are non combative and how to deal with

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

both, and and kinda went in some depth

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

regarding that topic, and I I shared that

00:02:56 --> 00:02:57

in in a

00:02:58 --> 00:02:59

We took we took a long time with

00:02:59 --> 00:03:00

the Tafsirahina saying go back and listen to

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

the recordings if you want to hear more.

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

It's a beautiful surah, honestly. I think everyone

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

should at least listen to the tafsirah at

00:03:05 --> 00:03:07

least once in their lives. Surah al Asaf

00:03:07 --> 00:03:10

talks about the social contract between the Muslim

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

individual and the community, and what that entails,

00:03:13 --> 00:03:16

what's required of you. Surat al Jumu'a talks

00:03:16 --> 00:03:18

about leadership within the Muslim community

00:03:18 --> 00:03:21

and what that means, and what is required

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

from followers and from leaders. And Zillow Mawlai

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

Yipun talks about

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

a group within society

00:03:27 --> 00:03:28

that

00:03:29 --> 00:03:31

are problematic to say the least. Umun I

00:03:31 --> 00:03:33

talk about people you cannot label,

00:03:34 --> 00:03:36

you cannot remove them from society,

00:03:38 --> 00:03:41

and they don't actually carry their weight. Like

00:03:41 --> 00:03:42

they're not willing to pick up the buy

00:03:42 --> 00:03:43

in.

00:03:43 --> 00:03:46

And call themselves Muslims, they're gonna accept all

00:03:46 --> 00:03:47

the perks of being a Muslim.

00:03:48 --> 00:03:50

None of the obligations or responsibilities of being

00:03:50 --> 00:03:51

a Muslim.

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

The the verses that we recited over the

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

last few weeks,

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

within them Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala as He

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

Subhanahu

00:03:58 --> 00:04:00

Wa Ta'ala describes them to us in different

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

in different ways.

00:04:01 --> 00:04:02

Being superficial,

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

being people who feel the guilt of the

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

fact that they're doing that. They show one

00:04:06 --> 00:04:08

thing, they hide the, you know, they hide

00:04:08 --> 00:04:09

the other. They use Islam as a way

00:04:09 --> 00:04:11

just to get to what they want. They're

00:04:11 --> 00:04:12

not interested. They don't respect the value. They

00:04:12 --> 00:04:13

don't respect the prophet

00:04:14 --> 00:04:15

They are

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

the enemy. Beware of them. And these are

00:04:19 --> 00:04:21

two important statements. Like this small little piece

00:04:21 --> 00:04:24

of the people read don't notice, the most

00:04:24 --> 00:04:25

important piece of the surah.

00:04:25 --> 00:04:27

It defines for you who they are. They

00:04:27 --> 00:04:29

are your true enemy. Your enemy does not

00:04:29 --> 00:04:31

come from outside. Your true enemy is not

00:04:31 --> 00:04:32

the one on the other side of the

00:04:32 --> 00:04:35

rails. Your true enemy comes from within. Just

00:04:35 --> 00:04:36

like as a community, your enemy comes from

00:04:36 --> 00:04:39

within. Just like you as an individual, your

00:04:39 --> 00:04:40

true enemy also comes from within.

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

It all comes from within. We're always looking.

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

Always scared from what's outside. It's always from

00:04:44 --> 00:04:46

what's inside. The problem is under your nose.

00:04:46 --> 00:04:47

You're just not looking at it. It's always

00:04:47 --> 00:04:48

there. Like,

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

your solution and your problem has always been

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

right there. You're you're looking you're

00:04:53 --> 00:04:54

looking in the wrong place. So as a

00:04:54 --> 00:04:57

community, Muslim community, the actual the problem is

00:04:57 --> 00:04:59

within us. It's not from without us. It's

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

inside.

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

So what we do with them? Do we

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

fight them? No. You have to be aware

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

of them.

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

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala will take care of

00:05:05 --> 00:05:07

them. Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala will will punish

00:05:07 --> 00:05:09

them in this life and the hereafter. Your

00:05:09 --> 00:05:11

job is to beware not to allow

00:05:12 --> 00:05:12

these,

00:05:14 --> 00:05:15

freeloaders.

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

These freeloaders upon Islam to ruin that which

00:05:19 --> 00:05:20

you're trying to achieve.

00:05:21 --> 00:05:23

Don't allow them with their negativity, with their

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

lack of buy in, with their lack of

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

commitment, with their lack of dedication, with their

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

lack of belief, with their lack of iman,

00:05:29 --> 00:05:30

with a lack of care, with their indifference

00:05:30 --> 00:05:32

to ruin what it is that you're trying

00:05:32 --> 00:05:34

to achieve for your community. Don't You're not

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

you're not allowed to exclude them, you're not

00:05:36 --> 00:05:37

allowed to fight them, you're not allowed to

00:05:37 --> 00:05:40

remove them, but you're not allowed them to

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

ruin your progress either. It's a very delicate

00:05:42 --> 00:05:44

matter, which is why it has a Surah

00:05:44 --> 00:05:46

An Taqan named after them. And then if

00:05:46 --> 00:05:48

you want this is the summarized version. You

00:05:48 --> 00:05:51

want the detailed version? Go to Surah Tawbah.

00:05:52 --> 00:05:53

Go to Surah Tawbah and it'll detail things

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

for you. It'll tell you in-depth their problem,

00:05:55 --> 00:05:57

what the problem actually is. And at the

00:05:57 --> 00:05:59

end of the surah today And if not

00:05:59 --> 00:06:02

today, maybe early the next weekend Next halaqa

00:06:02 --> 00:06:04

when we start surah at the takraw. I'll

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

kind of summarize the points. The different descriptions

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

Allah Subhanahu wa'ala gave of them and put

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

them all together and you'll see them. Why?

00:06:10 --> 00:06:11

So that we can

00:06:12 --> 00:06:14

categorize our community. No. So that you can

00:06:14 --> 00:06:16

hold yourself accountable to them. So that you

00:06:16 --> 00:06:17

can project them on yourself and make sure

00:06:17 --> 00:06:19

that you're not one of those people. That

00:06:19 --> 00:06:21

you're not picking up some of these characteristics

00:06:22 --> 00:06:23

of the muraafiqeen.

00:06:23 --> 00:06:23

Because,

00:06:24 --> 00:06:25

yeah, it's like

00:06:25 --> 00:06:27

it's like we're we have this big

00:06:29 --> 00:06:30

carriage.

00:06:32 --> 00:06:34

Yeah. We're trying to move along a road.

00:06:34 --> 00:06:36

Some of us are pushing.

00:06:37 --> 00:06:39

Some of us are sitting on top.

00:06:40 --> 00:06:41

And some of us are pushing backwards.

00:06:43 --> 00:06:44

Some of us are pushing backwards. The backwards

00:06:44 --> 00:06:46

one, you fight them off. The ones that

00:06:46 --> 00:06:47

But you have a lot of people just

00:06:47 --> 00:06:49

sitting on top. They just deadweight.

00:06:49 --> 00:06:50

They deadweight.

00:06:51 --> 00:06:54

They're not interested in doing anything, in offering

00:06:54 --> 00:06:57

anything, in committing or dedicating themselves in any

00:06:57 --> 00:06:58

form or manner. They're not gonna There's no

00:06:58 --> 00:06:59

buy in, but

00:07:00 --> 00:07:01

they're there. They're getting perks.

00:07:01 --> 00:07:03

They deserve zakah.

00:07:03 --> 00:07:04

They deserve the protection.

00:07:05 --> 00:07:07

They get the service. They get the they

00:07:07 --> 00:07:08

get all that stuff, but they're not willing

00:07:08 --> 00:07:10

to do anything. They're not actually contributing in

00:07:10 --> 00:07:11

any way. There's no contribution.

00:07:12 --> 00:07:15

There's no offering. That's a problem. That's a

00:07:15 --> 00:07:15

problem.

00:07:16 --> 00:07:17

There's there's a,

00:07:18 --> 00:07:18

a

00:07:20 --> 00:07:21

business model that I where they say, like,

00:07:21 --> 00:07:22

you get 80% of the work out of

00:07:22 --> 00:07:24

20% of the people or something like that.

00:07:24 --> 00:07:26

Some some some something like that. Yeah.

00:07:27 --> 00:07:29

Yeah. Exactly. It's an idea. And I think

00:07:29 --> 00:07:30

when it comes to Islam, I don't think

00:07:30 --> 00:07:32

it's any different. I can't I think I

00:07:32 --> 00:07:33

say I think the percentage is worse. I

00:07:33 --> 00:07:35

think you're talking about maybe 90% of the

00:07:35 --> 00:07:38

work, maybe from 5% of the people. Probably

00:07:38 --> 00:07:41

even worse. Because there's a huge amount of

00:07:41 --> 00:07:43

most people who who fall under these categories.

00:07:43 --> 00:07:44

Again, the goal here is not

00:07:45 --> 00:07:46

I made this very clear and I wanna

00:07:46 --> 00:07:47

make sure that yeah. Just one more time

00:07:47 --> 00:07:48

so I don't have to say it again.

00:07:49 --> 00:07:51

No. At no time, I know are you

00:07:51 --> 00:07:53

allowed to point someone else's out as a

00:07:53 --> 00:07:54

munafiq.

00:07:54 --> 00:07:56

You're never allowed to do that. There's no

00:07:56 --> 00:07:57

circumstance

00:07:57 --> 00:07:59

that allows you to do that ever. Unless

00:07:59 --> 00:08:00

unless

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

somehow you are receiving revelation from the almighty

00:08:03 --> 00:08:05

himself and he's telling you who's a munafiq.

00:08:05 --> 00:08:07

And even then, you wouldn't be allowed to

00:08:07 --> 00:08:09

expose them because the prophet, alayhis salaam, himself

00:08:09 --> 00:08:10

did not expose them.

00:08:11 --> 00:08:13

Yeah. But himself, alayhis salaam, who knew the

00:08:13 --> 00:08:14

names did not expose them. He could have.

00:08:14 --> 00:08:17

He didn't. So even if you were to

00:08:17 --> 00:08:18

know who they are, you can't so the

00:08:18 --> 00:08:20

people will go online and go on TV

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

or go

00:08:24 --> 00:08:25

You have no idea how far away you

00:08:25 --> 00:08:28

are from from understanding what Islam how Islam

00:08:28 --> 00:08:30

is supposed to be practiced. These ideas are

00:08:30 --> 00:08:32

for us so that I hold myself to

00:08:32 --> 00:08:34

them and wonder am I Munafuk? Am I

00:08:34 --> 00:08:35

behaving in a way that I that I

00:08:35 --> 00:08:37

shouldn't be behaving? And I and I fear

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

for myself and that's how we're supposed to

00:08:38 --> 00:08:41

take these verses. And they're also there for

00:08:41 --> 00:08:42

warnings. Meaning for me to go I'm gonna

00:08:42 --> 00:08:44

say look beware of doing 1, 2, 3,

00:08:44 --> 00:08:46

4 because this is what the munafiqeen do.

00:08:46 --> 00:08:47

And people listen to me say I don't

00:08:47 --> 00:08:48

wanna be munafiq so I wanna do those

00:08:48 --> 00:08:50

things so I don't do them. But this

00:08:50 --> 00:08:52

But the reality is that we have a

00:08:52 --> 00:08:54

lot of people who fall under this category.

00:08:54 --> 00:08:55

May Allah Subhanahu wa'ala not make us amongst

00:08:55 --> 00:08:57

them. And may Allah Subhanahu wa'ala grant those

00:08:57 --> 00:08:59

who are amongst them, Tawba and Hidayah and

00:08:59 --> 00:09:00

guidance so they may come back and figure

00:09:00 --> 00:09:03

out their ways and do things appropriately. Nifaaq

00:09:03 --> 00:09:04

is a spectrum. I'll end with that and

00:09:04 --> 00:09:05

then we'll start reciting the verses. It's a

00:09:05 --> 00:09:08

spectrum. So it's not just one thing. There's

00:09:08 --> 00:09:11

severe nifaq where you actually hate Islam on

00:09:11 --> 00:09:12

the inside and act like you like it

00:09:12 --> 00:09:14

on the outside. And there is something on

00:09:14 --> 00:09:16

the other way. You're just, there's just an

00:09:16 --> 00:09:19

obligation, a communal or personal obligation that you

00:09:19 --> 00:09:21

are purposefully not doing. Or something or lack

00:09:21 --> 00:09:22

of contribution that you could offer that you're

00:09:22 --> 00:09:25

not. Something simple. But it's a spectrum.

00:09:25 --> 00:09:27

Spectrum of new fox. So it's not just

00:09:27 --> 00:09:29

one one action. Okay.

00:09:29 --> 00:09:30

So this yesterday,

00:09:31 --> 00:09:32

or last, sorry.

00:09:34 --> 00:09:36

Last week on Sunday, we

00:09:36 --> 00:09:38

recited ayah number 7

00:09:49 --> 00:09:52

This verse occurred during the battle of Ghazwud

00:09:52 --> 00:09:53

Berin al Mustalika.

00:09:55 --> 00:09:56

At least that's what we think.

00:09:57 --> 00:09:59

There are some opinions that it happened, in

00:09:59 --> 00:10:00

a different time.

00:10:01 --> 00:10:03

This was a very difficult battle because they

00:10:03 --> 00:10:05

ended up preparing for being

00:10:06 --> 00:10:07

on the road for a certain period of

00:10:07 --> 00:10:08

time.

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

They ended up

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

being on the road for triple the amount

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

of time.

00:10:14 --> 00:10:15

So when you go on a battle, you

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

know, back in the day, you would have

00:10:16 --> 00:10:18

to have your provision. Prepare your And you

00:10:18 --> 00:10:20

have to have enough shoes. I know it

00:10:20 --> 00:10:21

sounds weird. You have to have to take

00:10:21 --> 00:10:23

enough shoes because you're gonna be walking in

00:10:23 --> 00:10:24

the desert for a long time. These shoes

00:10:24 --> 00:10:26

are gonna be worn now, you're gonna throw

00:10:26 --> 00:10:27

them out. So enough shoes, you have to

00:10:27 --> 00:10:29

have a a an animal that can take

00:10:29 --> 00:10:31

you that far, and then have food and

00:10:31 --> 00:10:33

water. You're responsible for taking that with you.

00:10:33 --> 00:10:35

You wouldn't go, you wouldn't free load.

00:10:35 --> 00:10:36

No. No. People weren't allowed to go in

00:10:36 --> 00:10:38

a battle and they didn't have that. This

00:10:38 --> 00:10:40

is interesting. I I'm taking a second just

00:10:40 --> 00:10:41

talk about that because I think people don't

00:10:41 --> 00:10:42

understand it. So if you're with the Prophet

00:10:42 --> 00:10:44

alaihis salatu wa sallam and he's going out

00:10:44 --> 00:10:45

of battle, and you're like, I have a

00:10:45 --> 00:10:48

sword. Yeah, let's go. He'll stop you. Where's

00:10:48 --> 00:10:50

your your your horse or your camel? I

00:10:50 --> 00:10:52

don't have one. Where's your provision? Or I'll

00:10:52 --> 00:10:53

just eat with the people. No. No. You're

00:10:53 --> 00:10:55

not allowed to go. You're like, no I'm

00:10:55 --> 00:10:57

strong, I'm capable, I have my You're not

00:10:57 --> 00:10:59

allowed to go. You need provision. We're gonna

00:10:59 --> 00:11:01

go a 1000 kilometers that way and back.

00:11:01 --> 00:11:03

That's gonna require this amount of food, and

00:11:03 --> 00:11:05

this amount of water, and this amount

00:11:06 --> 00:11:08

of of change, of clothing changes, and you

00:11:08 --> 00:11:10

need an animal to carry this for you.

00:11:10 --> 00:11:12

Alright? You have those things, you come with

00:11:12 --> 00:11:14

us. You don't have those things, I don't

00:11:14 --> 00:11:15

know how I don't care how muscular you

00:11:15 --> 00:11:17

are or skilled you are, you stay back

00:11:17 --> 00:11:19

and you would have good reason to. Meaning

00:11:19 --> 00:11:21

you could you you would stay back and

00:11:21 --> 00:11:23

you wouldn't be a for doing it. You

00:11:23 --> 00:11:25

have other, madur, meaning you're excused for not

00:11:25 --> 00:11:26

going because you don't have enough wealth.

00:11:27 --> 00:11:29

But it wasn't just the idea that you

00:11:29 --> 00:11:31

pull Yeah. You get your sword and your,

00:11:31 --> 00:11:33

and your armor, and you leave. No. You

00:11:33 --> 00:11:35

needed to have a vision. You can't go

00:11:35 --> 00:11:37

free load. You can't go 700 300 kilometers

00:11:37 --> 00:11:38

in, you're starving and you're thirsty and you

00:11:38 --> 00:11:40

have nothing, you can go eat someone else's

00:11:40 --> 00:11:42

food and drink someone else's water. No. You

00:11:42 --> 00:11:44

have to actually be prepared. So to me,

00:11:44 --> 00:11:46

this is one of the really nice examples

00:11:46 --> 00:11:48

of how the Muslims function. Everyone carried their

00:11:48 --> 00:11:51

weight. Everyone carried themselves and maybe carried more.

00:11:51 --> 00:11:52

Like if you were someone who was wealthy,

00:11:52 --> 00:11:54

you would prepare your own provision and then

00:11:54 --> 00:11:56

you would bring with you 4 other or

00:11:56 --> 00:11:58

5 camels that would carry other people as

00:11:58 --> 00:12:00

offerings for someone else to go who doesn't

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

have enough wealth to do it.

00:12:02 --> 00:12:03

But for someone to come and expect that

00:12:03 --> 00:12:06

they're going to be served for free just

00:12:06 --> 00:12:08

because they're there, no, you stay back,

00:12:09 --> 00:12:10

it wouldn't go. And I find it fascinating

00:12:11 --> 00:12:12

that that would be the case. The Prophet

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

did not force people, that they had to

00:12:14 --> 00:12:16

provide for others. Nope. If you don't have

00:12:16 --> 00:12:18

enough provision, okay, you stay. But you're also,

00:12:18 --> 00:12:19

I wanna be with you. I know. I

00:12:19 --> 00:12:20

want you with me too. But you don't

00:12:20 --> 00:12:21

have enough so you can stay back and

00:12:21 --> 00:12:22

they would not be held accountable for that.

00:12:22 --> 00:12:24

Not by the qata'ala, so not by Allah

00:12:24 --> 00:12:25

subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:12:25 --> 00:12:28

Because everyone's responsible for carrying their weight within

00:12:28 --> 00:12:28

the deen.

00:12:30 --> 00:12:32

Well, look, if you think about it, isn't

00:12:32 --> 00:12:33

that, wouldn't that be nice if everyone carried

00:12:33 --> 00:12:34

their own weight?

00:12:36 --> 00:12:37

People came to a masjid

00:12:38 --> 00:12:39

calculated on the time they spent to a

00:12:39 --> 00:12:41

masjid and decided, well, that that is worth

00:12:41 --> 00:12:42

this much.

00:12:42 --> 00:12:44

And they took care of that piece themselves.

00:12:45 --> 00:12:46

And someone

00:12:46 --> 00:12:48

who brought their kids to a masjid to

00:12:48 --> 00:12:48

learn or

00:12:49 --> 00:12:50

calculated how much that would cost if they

00:12:50 --> 00:12:52

were going to some other place and then

00:12:52 --> 00:12:54

made sure that they carried that weight. People

00:12:55 --> 00:12:57

benefit from People don't come to the mazir,

00:12:57 --> 00:12:58

but benefit from the cemetery or benefit from

00:12:58 --> 00:13:00

the masjid when someone passes away or benefit

00:13:00 --> 00:13:03

from the ship. Maybe maybe maybe think about

00:13:03 --> 00:13:04

what that means.

00:13:08 --> 00:13:09

Sadakah

00:13:09 --> 00:13:10

If you were going to go and ask

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

the Prophet alaihis salam for for private counsel,

00:13:13 --> 00:13:14

you had to give a sadaqa.

00:13:15 --> 00:13:16

Not to him. He didn't want the money.

00:13:16 --> 00:13:18

Sadaqa is haram for the prophet alaihis salam

00:13:18 --> 00:13:20

to take anyways. Like he's haram from the

00:13:20 --> 00:13:22

touch subakah. So he used that word Subhanahu

00:13:22 --> 00:13:23

Wa Ta'ala. So he wouldn't think that he's

00:13:23 --> 00:13:26

being paid. No. You'd have to offer the

00:13:26 --> 00:13:29

community sadakah and then go access. Because a

00:13:29 --> 00:13:31

service being being offered to you by the

00:13:31 --> 00:13:33

by the by the institution, by the religious

00:13:33 --> 00:13:36

group. So you carry your weight, you're gonna

00:13:36 --> 00:13:37

take and not give, not gonna take you

00:13:37 --> 00:13:39

have to give. You have to make sure

00:13:39 --> 00:13:41

that as you are receiving and benefiting make

00:13:41 --> 00:13:43

sure you're offering something so that everyone can

00:13:43 --> 00:13:46

do these things. I don't like charging people

00:13:46 --> 00:13:47

for stuff. I don't think it's I don't

00:13:47 --> 00:13:48

like it. We were just talking about a

00:13:48 --> 00:13:49

second ago. Like we were talking about the

00:13:49 --> 00:13:50

tent. You know, the tent is a nice

00:13:50 --> 00:13:53

place for maybe people have their thing, whatever

00:13:53 --> 00:13:55

they want to have. So events and we

00:13:55 --> 00:13:56

charge. I don't wanna charge people for that.

00:13:56 --> 00:13:58

Come do it for free. But you carry

00:13:58 --> 00:14:00

your weight into the community. Contribute to the

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

community. Contribute to the work. Contribute effectively. If

00:14:02 --> 00:14:04

you use what we have for free, it

00:14:04 --> 00:14:06

is for the community, you're the community, it's

00:14:06 --> 00:14:08

for you, use, but contribute.

00:14:09 --> 00:14:11

Instead of this whole transactional thing is I'll

00:14:11 --> 00:14:13

charge you for this and I'll charge you

00:14:13 --> 00:14:13

for that. That's

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

I don't like that. No, don't. I won't

00:14:16 --> 00:14:18

charge you. Bring your kids for the Quran

00:14:18 --> 00:14:19

for free. But contribute,

00:14:20 --> 00:14:21

Offer something. What are you offering?

00:14:22 --> 00:14:24

Pick up something, carry something for the community.

00:14:24 --> 00:14:26

Do something beneficial. Make sure that there's a

00:14:26 --> 00:14:27

contribution on your side. Doesn't have to be

00:14:27 --> 00:14:30

Everyone has money. Yaqinah. Everyone has money. Maybe

00:14:30 --> 00:14:31

that's not your contribution. Maybe your contribution is

00:14:31 --> 00:14:32

in

00:14:32 --> 00:14:35

some other fields. Maybe you have a skill

00:14:35 --> 00:14:37

set or expertise or time or knowledge or

00:14:37 --> 00:14:39

something you can offer but offer something.

00:14:39 --> 00:14:40

Because the Munafiqeen

00:14:40 --> 00:14:42

and all of the surah, yeah, in the

00:14:42 --> 00:14:43

Surah and Munafiqeen

00:14:44 --> 00:14:46

are freeloaders. All of them. They just they

00:14:46 --> 00:14:48

don't that they're not gonna do anything.

00:14:49 --> 00:14:51

Not willing to carry their weight within the

00:14:51 --> 00:14:52

Muslim community which makes it hard for him

00:14:52 --> 00:14:54

alayhis salatu washam to plan things because he

00:14:54 --> 00:14:56

counts. I have 1500 people who can bear

00:14:56 --> 00:14:58

arms. Then he calls for jihad, he has

00:14:58 --> 00:15:00

600 people show up. Where's the 9

00:15:01 --> 00:15:03

where's the where the 900 people gone? There's

00:15:03 --> 00:15:05

there's discrepancy between the numbers I have and

00:15:05 --> 00:15:06

what I'm getting.

00:15:06 --> 00:15:09

Where is it? 900 people. Yeah. That's Nifaka.

00:15:10 --> 00:15:12

That's what Nifaka does. It makes it impossible

00:15:12 --> 00:15:14

to plan anything or do anything because you

00:15:14 --> 00:15:15

have people who are just not gonna show

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

up when they needed. Not gonna do the

00:15:17 --> 00:15:19

work when they're required. They just they'll just

00:15:19 --> 00:15:19

come in.

00:15:20 --> 00:15:21

Khawaja.

00:15:22 --> 00:15:24

Bik basha. This comes in.

00:15:26 --> 00:15:29

I've parks his car, walks over, expects everything

00:15:29 --> 00:15:31

to work, expects say it to just happen.

00:15:31 --> 00:15:33

Never need to be perfect, so they can

00:15:33 --> 00:15:35

depray their aid and go home. No contribution

00:15:35 --> 00:15:38

ever. Nothing. Nothing at all. I offered nothing

00:15:38 --> 00:15:39

to make this happen.

00:15:40 --> 00:15:41

Made sure nothing was

00:15:41 --> 00:15:43

That cannot fault me. This is this this

00:15:43 --> 00:15:46

is nonsense. It's nonsense. I'm seeing it more

00:15:46 --> 00:15:48

and more in this community, and it's bothering

00:15:48 --> 00:15:50

it's starting to bother me a little bit.

00:15:50 --> 00:15:52

Bother me. I love serving people. Like, this

00:15:52 --> 00:15:53

is the whole This is what this place

00:15:53 --> 00:15:55

is built on. We build this place on

00:15:55 --> 00:15:57

this one concept of service. If you come

00:15:57 --> 00:15:59

in, we see you as someone who's worthy

00:15:59 --> 00:16:01

of service. We help you. We serve you.

00:16:01 --> 00:16:02

But after a while, I start wondering,

00:16:04 --> 00:16:05

what is everyone else doing?

00:16:06 --> 00:16:08

Does everyone else understand this? Are we are

00:16:08 --> 00:16:09

we all on the same page?

00:16:10 --> 00:16:12

Because if that's not the case, then

00:16:13 --> 00:16:14

there's an abuse of,

00:16:16 --> 00:16:17

there's abuse of, of,

00:16:19 --> 00:16:20

of availability.

00:16:21 --> 00:16:22

You're abusing that which is available.

00:16:23 --> 00:16:25

And you're not doing what you're supposed to

00:16:25 --> 00:16:26

do to make to maintain it, to maintain

00:16:26 --> 00:16:28

it, to sustain it, to to keep it

00:16:28 --> 00:16:30

running and to improve it. And that's what

00:16:30 --> 00:16:32

the prophet of alayhi saw some struggle with

00:16:32 --> 00:16:33

what was with this group of people that

00:16:33 --> 00:16:34

we're talking about.

00:16:35 --> 00:16:36

So what did they say?

00:16:37 --> 00:16:39

Because this is the this is the battle,

00:16:39 --> 00:16:40

you had to have your provision. You ended

00:16:40 --> 00:16:42

up the battle ended up,

00:16:43 --> 00:16:43

taking

00:16:44 --> 00:16:47

triple the time that they had planned for.

00:16:47 --> 00:16:49

So they ran out of provision. Everyone did,

00:16:49 --> 00:16:51

except some of the really wealthy people who

00:16:51 --> 00:16:52

went out. Most of them were munafiqin. They

00:16:52 --> 00:16:53

were very wealthy. They took way more than

00:16:53 --> 00:16:54

they needed.

00:16:55 --> 00:16:57

So everyone was coming together, putting the provision

00:16:57 --> 00:16:58

together and trying to help each other out

00:16:58 --> 00:17:00

because everyone was running low. So what did

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

they say?

00:17:05 --> 00:17:07

Don't give the followers of the Prophet, the

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

people around the Prophet. Don't give them anything.

00:17:09 --> 00:17:10

Like hold back if you have something extra

00:17:10 --> 00:17:11

to give, don't give it to them.

00:17:12 --> 00:17:14

So he'll so they'll fight and he'll lose

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

his posse. He'll lose his you'll lose his

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

group of people who support him. And that

00:17:18 --> 00:17:20

will that will,

00:17:20 --> 00:17:22

weaken him alayhi salawatulullah. So what they're saying,

00:17:22 --> 00:17:23

they don't don't give

00:17:23 --> 00:17:25

alamananda andrasulillah.

00:17:25 --> 00:17:25

So

00:17:26 --> 00:17:27

they leave him.

00:17:29 --> 00:17:30

And to Allah belongs

00:17:30 --> 00:17:32

the the and

00:17:32 --> 00:17:34

the treasures of this cosmos and the earth.

00:17:34 --> 00:17:36

But the they don't know. They don't understand.

00:17:36 --> 00:17:38

That Allah gives to whom he wants and

00:17:38 --> 00:17:40

holds back from whom he wants. And with

00:17:40 --> 00:17:41

the wealth that you have today, doesn't necessarily

00:17:41 --> 00:17:43

mean you're gonna have it forever. And if

00:17:43 --> 00:17:44

you're wealthy today, you may not be wealthy

00:17:44 --> 00:17:46

tomorrow. So use your wealth, Yani, appropriately. And

00:17:46 --> 00:17:48

inshallah, if you're if you're compassionate today, someone

00:17:48 --> 00:17:50

will be compassionate for you later on in

00:17:50 --> 00:17:51

your life and that's how you'll continue. But

00:17:51 --> 00:17:53

they don't know that. You understand that piece.

00:17:53 --> 00:17:54

So they held back their wealth. One of

00:17:54 --> 00:17:56

the hallmarks of wu'munafaq is they hold back

00:17:56 --> 00:17:58

their wealth when they are needed to give

00:17:58 --> 00:18:00

it. They can give it and they should

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

give it but they don't give it. And

00:18:02 --> 00:18:03

then the prophet alaihis saloon didn't say anything.

00:18:03 --> 00:18:05

That's why the people, this gazuah

00:18:05 --> 00:18:07

was a disaster

00:18:07 --> 00:18:09

on a physical level.

00:18:09 --> 00:18:11

By the time they got back to Medina,

00:18:11 --> 00:18:14

their tongues and faces were green from eating

00:18:14 --> 00:18:15

leaves

00:18:15 --> 00:18:18

and their toenails had fallen off their feet

00:18:19 --> 00:18:20

because they had no shoes to run. Because

00:18:20 --> 00:18:21

it was just it just you know, when

00:18:21 --> 00:18:23

you when you plan something out, you they

00:18:23 --> 00:18:24

plan it to the best of the ability.

00:18:24 --> 00:18:26

Sometimes you plan out the the battle perfectly

00:18:26 --> 00:18:28

and then you end up with a Yeah,

00:18:28 --> 00:18:29

there's a curveball.

00:18:29 --> 00:18:30

There's a problem and they ended up having

00:18:30 --> 00:18:32

to stay longer than they than they thought.

00:18:32 --> 00:18:34

And instead of people working together, there was

00:18:34 --> 00:18:35

a group that said, Nope.

00:18:37 --> 00:18:38

I'm gonna take all the toilet paper out

00:18:38 --> 00:18:39

of Walmart and keep it at home.

00:18:40 --> 00:18:41

I'm

00:18:42 --> 00:18:43

gonna go buy all of this hand sanitizer.

00:18:43 --> 00:18:44

I just keep it at home. I don't

00:18:44 --> 00:18:46

care if anyone has it or not. Yeah.

00:18:46 --> 00:18:48

That that's a problem. It's a problem of

00:18:48 --> 00:18:49

of of looking at the world around you.

00:18:49 --> 00:18:50

You have to behave in a way where

00:18:50 --> 00:18:53

if everyone else behaved, things would work. If

00:18:53 --> 00:18:54

you behave in a way where if everyone

00:18:54 --> 00:18:55

else did the same thing, every The whole

00:18:55 --> 00:18:57

system would collapse, then you're a part of

00:18:57 --> 00:18:59

the problem, my friend. You're a part of

00:18:59 --> 00:19:01

the problem, my friend. You have to behave

00:19:01 --> 00:19:02

in a way where if everyone did what

00:19:02 --> 00:19:04

you're doing, things would work perfectly.

00:19:04 --> 00:19:06

We would improve. We would be on a

00:19:06 --> 00:19:08

trajectory of height, of things getting better. You're

00:19:08 --> 00:19:10

behaving in a way where if everyone did

00:19:10 --> 00:19:12

what you're doing, things would collapse then you're

00:19:12 --> 00:19:14

a part of the problem and you don't

00:19:14 --> 00:19:14

even know it.

00:19:15 --> 00:19:17

It's even worse. Because one thing to know

00:19:17 --> 00:19:18

that you're part of the problem because at

00:19:18 --> 00:19:20

least now you have clarity. You can do

00:19:20 --> 00:19:21

some exchanges. But if you're a part of

00:19:21 --> 00:19:22

the problem and you don't even know that

00:19:22 --> 00:19:24

you're a part of the problem. Oh.

00:19:25 --> 00:19:27

Hello. It's this is so lost. It's not

00:19:27 --> 00:19:29

even funny. Yeah. One of the scholars was

00:19:29 --> 00:19:30

asked

00:19:31 --> 00:19:32

about people.

00:19:35 --> 00:19:36

For wisdom. So he said there are 4

00:19:36 --> 00:19:38

types of people. Just

00:19:39 --> 00:19:41

take this, you know, kind of thing for

00:19:41 --> 00:19:41

yourself.

00:19:45 --> 00:19:48

There is a scholar or a knowledgeable person

00:19:48 --> 00:19:50

who knows that they're knowledgeable. Badarika

00:19:51 --> 00:19:53

That person learn from them.

00:19:53 --> 00:19:55

They're knowledgeable. They know that they they know

00:19:55 --> 00:19:57

what they know. They know they have knowledge

00:19:57 --> 00:19:58

and they know what they know.

00:20:05 --> 00:20:06

And then there's someone

00:20:06 --> 00:20:07

who who's knowledgeable,

00:20:07 --> 00:20:09

but doesn't recognize that they're knowledgeable.

00:20:12 --> 00:20:14

That's someone who has lost their focus or

00:20:14 --> 00:20:16

remind them like remind them back that you

00:20:16 --> 00:20:18

know, you have something to offer. You have

00:20:18 --> 00:20:19

a lot of value that you can offer

00:20:19 --> 00:20:20

later on.

00:20:28 --> 00:20:29

And then there's someone who is ignorant and

00:20:29 --> 00:20:32

they know they're ignorant. So teach them. Bring

00:20:32 --> 00:20:33

them. Help them.

00:20:41 --> 00:20:43

And then there's the ignorant who does not

00:20:43 --> 00:20:44

know they are ignorant.

00:20:45 --> 00:20:46

Stay away from those

00:20:47 --> 00:20:50

because that's that there's not there's no fixing

00:20:50 --> 00:20:51

that. There's no fixing that.

00:20:52 --> 00:20:53

There's no fixing it.

00:20:56 --> 00:20:58

From being someone like that. May Allah Subhanahu

00:20:58 --> 00:20:59

wa'ala forgive us.

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

So so that's what happened on that gazbah.

00:21:02 --> 00:21:03

There's another piece of the story

00:21:04 --> 00:21:06

that happened during that gazbah that the Mu'athikin

00:21:06 --> 00:21:07

did something that we're going to recite this

00:21:07 --> 00:21:08

ayah number 8 and I'll explain it to

00:21:08 --> 00:21:10

you inshaa'aala and

00:21:10 --> 00:21:12

then hopefully you have enough time to, to

00:21:12 --> 00:21:13

conclude the

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

They say, yeah, they're saying

00:22:24 --> 00:22:26

When it is that we go back.

00:22:27 --> 00:22:27

Go back.

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

If we make it back or when we

00:22:29 --> 00:22:31

make it back. It's if or when. When

00:22:31 --> 00:22:33

is probably a more appropriate translation in this

00:22:33 --> 00:22:33

context.

00:22:35 --> 00:22:37

And here is for tolkeet to emphasis that

00:22:37 --> 00:22:39

for sure when we make it back,

00:22:45 --> 00:22:46

is the superior,

00:22:47 --> 00:22:49

or the one with higher levels of integrity.

00:22:50 --> 00:22:51

The humiliated,

00:22:52 --> 00:22:54

the one who has no integrity, the inferior.

00:22:56 --> 00:22:58

Meaning the lam here is also emphasis and

00:22:58 --> 00:22:59

the noon that has the shaddah on the

00:22:59 --> 00:23:01

end of this verb is also for emphasis.

00:23:01 --> 00:23:03

So either using 2 emphasizing,

00:23:04 --> 00:23:06

tools in one verb, and this is very

00:23:06 --> 00:23:08

common within the Arabic language and they use

00:23:08 --> 00:23:09

it. Indeed

00:23:10 --> 00:23:14

remove. The superior will remove the inferior from

00:23:14 --> 00:23:17

it. Minha. Minha meaning from Madinah.

00:23:18 --> 00:23:20

When you go back to Madinah, the superior

00:23:20 --> 00:23:22

will remove the inferior from Madinah.

00:23:24 --> 00:23:25

He meant Abu Abu Abu Abu Abu Abu

00:23:25 --> 00:23:27

Salud, meant himself

00:23:28 --> 00:23:30

removing the Prophet alaihis salam, the Muslims.

00:23:31 --> 00:23:33

That's what he said. So what happened? Here's

00:23:33 --> 00:23:34

what happened.

00:23:35 --> 00:23:37

As I said, people are starving. It's really

00:23:37 --> 00:23:37

difficult.

00:23:39 --> 00:23:41

They come by come by a well that

00:23:41 --> 00:23:43

has a little bit of water in it.

00:23:43 --> 00:23:45

So naturally people are thirsty and starving.

00:23:46 --> 00:23:48

So a little bit of shoving and pushing

00:23:48 --> 00:23:51

was happening around the well. Naturally, understandably.

00:23:51 --> 00:23:53

So a little bit of people were getting

00:23:53 --> 00:23:54

a little bit antsy then,

00:23:56 --> 00:23:58

Ansari There's There was a There were more

00:23:58 --> 00:23:59

Ansar than there were Muhajirina obviously in all

00:23:59 --> 00:24:01

of these battles. Meaning there's more people from

00:24:01 --> 00:24:03

Madinah, from Khazraj and Ouz. And there were

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

from,

00:24:03 --> 00:24:06

Mecca or other parts of the Muslim of

00:24:06 --> 00:24:09

Arabia who came who immigrated to Madinah to

00:24:09 --> 00:24:10

be with the Prophet 'alayhi wa sallam. They're

00:24:10 --> 00:24:12

called Muhajireen. So there is a more always

00:24:12 --> 00:24:13

a little bit more unsal than there are

00:24:13 --> 00:24:13

Muhajireen.

00:24:14 --> 00:24:15

So they were shoving and pushing.

00:24:19 --> 00:24:21

That's the the wording in the hadith that

00:24:21 --> 00:24:22

you have, Ahmed. And the story I'm telling

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

you, exists in the books of hadith and

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

is authentic and you can go back. And

00:24:26 --> 00:24:27

I I I've narrated it a couple of

00:24:27 --> 00:24:29

times in the after Isha Hawatul in the

00:24:29 --> 00:24:29

past.

00:24:40 --> 00:24:41

So one of the the guy who got

00:24:41 --> 00:24:43

hit, he got really upset so he called

00:24:43 --> 00:24:44

upon the Ansar.

00:24:44 --> 00:24:46

You Al Khazraj You Al Aqsa, He called

00:24:46 --> 00:24:47

upon his people.

00:24:48 --> 00:24:50

So a couple of guys from his tribe

00:24:50 --> 00:24:52

and from the background came

00:24:52 --> 00:24:54

and ganged up on this who called.

00:24:55 --> 00:24:56

He called on the Muhajirim.

00:24:57 --> 00:24:58

So a couple of the Muhajirim

00:24:59 --> 00:25:00

came.

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

And before this turned into, yani, a full

00:25:03 --> 00:25:04

fledged flight fight,

00:25:04 --> 00:25:07

the prophet heard about it. They had camped.

00:25:07 --> 00:25:09

Just to understand, when people when armies are

00:25:09 --> 00:25:10

moving, they move they move they move when

00:25:10 --> 00:25:11

it comes to and they and they and

00:25:11 --> 00:25:14

they and they camp around a an oasis.

00:25:14 --> 00:25:16

Right? Or a place where there are trees

00:25:16 --> 00:25:17

so that they they can they can sleep

00:25:17 --> 00:25:19

under the shade and there's enough water people

00:25:19 --> 00:25:20

to and then they would they would,

00:25:21 --> 00:25:23

Yani, rest for a couple of hours and

00:25:23 --> 00:25:24

they would set up some small tents for

00:25:24 --> 00:25:26

people to So the prophet, alayhis salatu wasalam,

00:25:26 --> 00:25:28

was in his tent and he heard.

00:25:29 --> 00:25:30

So he came running out, alayhis salatu, alayhis

00:25:30 --> 00:25:31

salatu, alayhis salatu, alayhis salatu, alayhis salatu, alayhis

00:25:31 --> 00:25:32

salatu, alayhis salatu, alayhis salatu, alayhis salatu, alayhis

00:25:32 --> 00:25:33

salatu, alayhis salatu, alayhis salatu, alayhis salatu, alayhis

00:25:33 --> 00:25:34

salatu, alayhis salatu. Meaning he was still he

00:25:34 --> 00:25:35

wasn't fully dressed.

00:25:36 --> 00:25:38

I mean, he didn't take enough time to

00:25:38 --> 00:25:39

actually get dressed out of his salat. He

00:25:39 --> 00:25:41

walked out of he ran out of the

00:25:41 --> 00:25:43

tent getting dressed as he's coming out,

00:25:44 --> 00:25:45

calling upon them.

00:25:52 --> 00:25:55

You're going to call. Use the callings of

00:25:55 --> 00:25:57

jahiliyah and I'm still alive. I'm still here.

00:25:57 --> 00:25:59

I'm not dead yet. You're gonna go but

00:25:59 --> 00:26:01

you guys are gonna arrest her jahiliyah quickly.

00:26:01 --> 00:26:02

This is what he would

00:26:03 --> 00:26:05

continuously, scared them with alayhi salatu wa sallam.

00:26:05 --> 00:26:07

Like if you want to know what his

00:26:07 --> 00:26:09

method of of kind of

00:26:10 --> 00:26:13

reminding people or reminding people is that do

00:26:13 --> 00:26:15

not ever go regress back to the ways

00:26:15 --> 00:26:15

of jahiliyah.

00:26:16 --> 00:26:18

Never go back to that way of thought

00:26:18 --> 00:26:19

and that way of life and that and

00:26:19 --> 00:26:21

those ethics and those morals and don't go

00:26:21 --> 00:26:22

back to that. So

00:26:23 --> 00:26:25

you're using the callings of jahiliyah

00:26:25 --> 00:26:27

Where my tribe and your tribe and then

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

the 2 groups come and then you have

00:26:29 --> 00:26:29

or

00:26:31 --> 00:26:32

whatever

00:26:32 --> 00:26:35

battles that the Arabs spent maybe 3 or

00:26:35 --> 00:26:37

4 or 5 decades fighting. The with the

00:26:37 --> 00:26:38

count the blood count going to 3 or

00:26:38 --> 00:26:41

4000 because some guy killed some other guy's

00:26:41 --> 00:26:41

camel.

00:26:43 --> 00:26:45

Yeah. Because of for a camel or a

00:26:45 --> 00:26:46

or a horse.

00:26:46 --> 00:26:48

And then the the blood count is 3,000

00:26:48 --> 00:26:51

after 40 years. And the people a full

00:26:51 --> 00:26:53

generation has died and new generation is there

00:26:53 --> 00:26:54

and they don't even know why they're fighting.

00:26:55 --> 00:26:56

Like none of them were alive when this

00:26:56 --> 00:26:58

problem happened. Like the person who still carries

00:26:58 --> 00:27:01

the grudge against the other tribe wasn't alive

00:27:01 --> 00:27:03

when the initial problem actually occurred.

00:27:04 --> 00:27:05

So he comes out.

00:27:08 --> 00:27:09

You got you're regressing back to the callings

00:27:09 --> 00:27:12

of jahili, and I'm still alive amongst you.

00:27:12 --> 00:27:15

Leave it. For in Muntina, this is disgusting.

00:27:16 --> 00:27:18

This is disgusting. He would say this twice

00:27:18 --> 00:27:20

in his life alaihis salatu wa sallam. Once

00:27:20 --> 00:27:23

now and once later during hunayn. These would

00:27:23 --> 00:27:25

happen around hunayn as well. Meaning when I

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

tell the story of, when I tell the

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

sira, I tell the story almost twice with

00:27:29 --> 00:27:31

different context for both but the same wordings

00:27:31 --> 00:27:32

you would use alaihis salawat wa sama. Leave

00:27:32 --> 00:27:34

it You will do netan. Netan is something

00:27:34 --> 00:27:35

that is rotten.

00:27:36 --> 00:27:38

That is rotten. Meaning you can't it's it's

00:27:38 --> 00:27:41

it smells horrible. You can't it's not usable.

00:27:41 --> 00:27:42

You can't use it and it smells.

00:27:43 --> 00:27:45

Meaning it is something that will cause rot.

00:27:45 --> 00:27:47

It's not just rot in itself. It's going

00:27:47 --> 00:27:48

to cause rot as disgusting.

00:27:49 --> 00:27:50

So they all

00:27:51 --> 00:27:52

came back.

00:27:53 --> 00:27:55

Everyone calm down. He would go back

00:27:55 --> 00:27:57

but now the aftermath of all the, gossip.

00:27:59 --> 00:27:59

And now

00:28:01 --> 00:28:02

would start saying things.

00:28:03 --> 00:28:04

He would say

00:28:04 --> 00:28:06

amongst the things he would say,

00:28:15 --> 00:28:16

The example of us and these people that

00:28:16 --> 00:28:18

we've allowed into our city, he's referring to

00:28:18 --> 00:28:20

the Prophet alaihis salatu wa sallam wa jaleel.

00:28:20 --> 00:28:21

It's just like the the,

00:28:22 --> 00:28:23

the proverb that says,

00:28:24 --> 00:28:27

feed your dog well and he'll eat you.

00:28:28 --> 00:28:29

You see this is what he started to

00:28:29 --> 00:28:31

say. Of course, he's saying it publicly and

00:28:31 --> 00:28:32

it's making his way to the prophet, ahi

00:28:32 --> 00:28:34

salatu salam, as he hears the sahab are

00:28:34 --> 00:28:35

hearing this.

00:28:38 --> 00:28:40

A boy called Zayd ibn Urukham heard these

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

heard these things.

00:28:42 --> 00:28:43

He heard him say that. And then he

00:28:43 --> 00:28:44

heard him say,

00:28:45 --> 00:28:47

We we go back to Medina,

00:28:47 --> 00:28:49

this time it's gonna be different. This time

00:28:49 --> 00:28:50

the superior

00:28:50 --> 00:28:52

is going to remove the inferior from the

00:28:52 --> 00:28:54

city. We're gonna kick the inferiors out.

00:28:56 --> 00:29:00

Blunt racism. Right? Just just open racism. What

00:29:00 --> 00:29:01

is racism? Racism is one group. Things are

00:29:01 --> 00:29:03

better than another group. That's all this. It's

00:29:03 --> 00:29:04

collective arrogance.

00:29:05 --> 00:29:07

If I think I'm better than one person,

00:29:07 --> 00:29:08

that's arrogance. If I think I'm better than

00:29:08 --> 00:29:10

a whole race of people, that's racism. That's

00:29:10 --> 00:29:12

all it is. It's just like arrogance timed

00:29:12 --> 00:29:14

by a million. That's all.

00:29:14 --> 00:29:16

And that's what they were doing.

00:29:17 --> 00:29:19

Everyone's calling their tribe. Leave it. It's disgusting.

00:29:19 --> 00:29:20

This is rotten.

00:29:20 --> 00:29:22

This way of thought of my group against

00:29:22 --> 00:29:24

your group, our group better than your group,

00:29:24 --> 00:29:26

and and dividing people based on bloodlines or

00:29:26 --> 00:29:28

based on This is this is rotten. This

00:29:28 --> 00:29:30

is this is racism. We don't want this.

00:29:30 --> 00:29:32

So they stopped. But Abdulai Ben Ube couldn't

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

help.

00:29:42 --> 00:29:43

You know, it's just something to understand. This

00:29:43 --> 00:29:46

is documented in the books of hadith with

00:29:46 --> 00:29:48

authentic change of narration, so it's worth at

00:29:48 --> 00:29:49

least sharing with with you.

00:29:50 --> 00:29:52

The superior will remove the inferior. So he's

00:29:52 --> 00:29:54

meaning meaning the prophet, alayhi, sallam. So Zayd

00:29:54 --> 00:29:56

al Makhan would go to the prophet, alayhi,

00:29:56 --> 00:29:57

sallam, and say,

00:30:02 --> 00:30:04

Are you sure your ear heard heard this?

00:30:04 --> 00:30:05

And

00:30:05 --> 00:30:06

you would leave him and come back and

00:30:06 --> 00:30:08

say, also, I heard him say this. Qala

00:30:08 --> 00:30:08

yahaada.

00:30:09 --> 00:30:09

Udurukasami

00:30:10 --> 00:30:12

aatuh. You sure you're you're you're because he

00:30:12 --> 00:30:14

didn't he was trying to teach him something

00:30:14 --> 00:30:15

but he didn't learn it right then and

00:30:15 --> 00:30:17

there. But don't don't don't do this.

00:30:17 --> 00:30:20

Don't bring in no. No. Don't. Keep it

00:30:20 --> 00:30:20

keep it to yourself.

00:30:21 --> 00:30:22

Just don't don't spread

00:30:23 --> 00:30:24

this type of fitna.

00:30:25 --> 00:30:26

Three times he would come and tell the

00:30:26 --> 00:30:28

prophet alaihis salam, I heard this Quran. I

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

said, You

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

sure?

00:30:30 --> 00:30:32

You sure you're here heard this? And then

00:30:32 --> 00:30:33

of course

00:30:43 --> 00:30:45

Your your your ear is loyal. No. You're

00:30:45 --> 00:30:47

you heard it. But we try and teach

00:30:47 --> 00:30:49

him that don't don't bring this stuff.

00:30:55 --> 00:30:58

Not himself. See, Umar was too smart. He

00:30:58 --> 00:30:59

didn't say, tell me to chop his head

00:30:59 --> 00:31:01

off because he's a Muhaajir and that's an

00:31:01 --> 00:31:03

Ansari. It's gonna we're gonna go back to

00:31:03 --> 00:31:05

the same thing. If the Prophet 'alaihi sallallahu

00:31:05 --> 00:31:08

alaihi wa sallam tells Umar, Go bring me

00:31:08 --> 00:31:10

'Abdulla bin Ubayb in Silu's head. Then then

00:31:10 --> 00:31:12

now he said, Muhaajir killed the Ansari, you

00:31:12 --> 00:31:14

ahlosad. And now we're gonna start all over

00:31:14 --> 00:31:15

again, this is gonna start. So he told

00:31:15 --> 00:31:18

Mu'adhim, Tell Mu'adhim. Mu'adhim Jabal was related to

00:31:18 --> 00:31:20

Abdullah ibn Ubayb bin Salud. Both of them

00:31:20 --> 00:31:22

were from Khazraj and he was related meaning

00:31:22 --> 00:31:24

a distant cousin but from the same family,

00:31:24 --> 00:31:26

same basic tribe. And Mu'adh ibn Jabal was

00:31:26 --> 00:31:28

the, you know, one of the great Sahaba

00:31:28 --> 00:31:30

radiAllahu anhu wadda, one of my favorite.

00:31:30 --> 00:31:33

So tell Mu'adh to go take his head

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

off.

00:31:40 --> 00:31:42

No. I don't I will not have people

00:31:42 --> 00:31:44

saying that Muhammad is killing his companions.

00:31:44 --> 00:31:46

I'm not gonna have people say that someone

00:31:46 --> 00:31:48

says something and then I and I and

00:31:48 --> 00:31:49

I killed No. We're not gonna do that.

00:31:50 --> 00:31:51

Fakhalaiosool Allah Youkooolooqaddah.

00:31:52 --> 00:31:54

Weyakooolooqaddah. And they kept people were coming to

00:31:54 --> 00:31:56

him saying how are you going to lead?

00:31:56 --> 00:31:59

It's a really interesting dynamic because alaihis salatu

00:31:59 --> 00:32:02

waslam yahani is risking losing the support of

00:32:02 --> 00:32:04

his of the people who are loyal to

00:32:04 --> 00:32:06

him as they're saying you have to take

00:32:06 --> 00:32:08

care of this person and what he's how

00:32:08 --> 00:32:11

he's behaving and what he's doing. He's holding

00:32:11 --> 00:32:13

back provision for people who are starving. He's

00:32:13 --> 00:32:16

telling his allies not to feed others. He's

00:32:16 --> 00:32:18

actually He's making a problem like he's and

00:32:18 --> 00:32:20

he's saying words that are inflammatory, that are

00:32:20 --> 00:32:23

racist. He's encouraging people to behave in racist

00:32:23 --> 00:32:25

ways. He's saying things about you right in

00:32:25 --> 00:32:27

front of you under your nose and you're

00:32:27 --> 00:32:28

not doing anything about it.

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

When he said that he's told them all

00:32:33 --> 00:32:34

these everything I'm anything I'm telling you that

00:32:34 --> 00:32:36

he said there you'll find in books of

00:32:36 --> 00:32:37

hadith and they're authentic. You can go look

00:32:37 --> 00:32:37

them up.

00:32:42 --> 00:32:42

We will continue.

00:32:43 --> 00:32:44

We're not gonna do that. We're not gonna

00:32:44 --> 00:32:45

kill him. We're not gonna take his head.

00:32:45 --> 00:32:47

We're not gonna remove him. We're gonna continue

00:32:47 --> 00:32:49

to treat him with excellence. We're

00:32:50 --> 00:32:52

going to have a as long as he's

00:32:52 --> 00:32:53

in appearance,

00:32:54 --> 00:32:55

he's with us. Like as long as it

00:32:55 --> 00:32:57

appears, he continues to to come with us,

00:32:57 --> 00:32:59

I'm gonna continue to treat him well. Sallallahu

00:32:59 --> 00:33:00

alaihi wa sallam.

00:33:01 --> 00:33:03

And then his son, Abdulla ibn Ubayyib bin

00:33:03 --> 00:33:05

Sallou's son, his name was Khabab. And the

00:33:05 --> 00:33:07

prophet Alaihi saw some change his name to

00:33:07 --> 00:33:09

Abdullah. So his name was Abdullah ibn Abdullah

00:33:09 --> 00:33:10

ibn Ubay bin Sidoo. Right? So he was

00:33:10 --> 00:33:12

his son. And he was a great Muhabi.

00:33:12 --> 00:33:13

And he said, Ayman said, You Rasool Allah.

00:33:14 --> 00:33:16

Samee ayatu Makkala ta Abi. Samee ayatu Makkala

00:33:16 --> 00:33:17

ta Abi. I know you've heard what my

00:33:17 --> 00:33:18

said.

00:33:19 --> 00:33:21

I've heard what people have said. You Rasulullah.

00:33:30 --> 00:33:32

So You Rasoolullah, if you're going to call

00:33:32 --> 00:33:34

someone to take take his life, to execute

00:33:34 --> 00:33:35

him, then call me.

00:33:36 --> 00:33:37

Don't tell anyone else. I don't think I

00:33:37 --> 00:33:38

could walk and live seeing someone who killed

00:33:38 --> 00:33:39

my father. I don't think I could do

00:33:39 --> 00:33:41

it. Like I think He's telling I'm

00:33:42 --> 00:33:43

I'm I'm vulnerable in this position.

00:33:44 --> 00:33:45

If you tell someone else to take his

00:33:45 --> 00:33:47

life, it'll be very difficult for me to

00:33:48 --> 00:33:49

If this is needed, if what he has

00:33:49 --> 00:33:50

said is deserving

00:33:51 --> 00:33:53

of him being punished, then I'll do it.

00:33:53 --> 00:33:54

I'll do it and no one else has

00:33:54 --> 00:33:55

to do it. He

00:33:58 --> 00:34:00

said it again to Abdullah and his son.

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

We We will continue to treat him well.

00:34:02 --> 00:34:03

As long as he continues to be with

00:34:03 --> 00:34:05

us, we will leave. But

00:34:07 --> 00:34:09

he he shouldn't have said that. Like even

00:34:09 --> 00:34:10

his son was like something has to happen.

00:34:10 --> 00:34:12

The prophet alaihis salaam said that nothing. We're

00:34:12 --> 00:34:14

doing nothing. We're gonna leave it as it

00:34:14 --> 00:34:14

is.

00:34:17 --> 00:34:19

The superior will remove the inferior. He's speaking

00:34:19 --> 00:34:21

about the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam.

00:34:22 --> 00:34:24

Who is higher set is in the prophet

00:34:24 --> 00:34:25

alaihi wasallahu alaihi wasallam? That's all he that's

00:34:25 --> 00:34:26

what he's saying.

00:34:28 --> 00:34:30

But I always always felt it was

00:34:32 --> 00:34:32

just very

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

meaningful

00:34:37 --> 00:34:38

to to observe the prophet

00:34:39 --> 00:34:40

being so

00:34:40 --> 00:34:43

patient and forgiving towards someone like that. You

00:34:43 --> 00:34:43

see

00:34:44 --> 00:34:45

people missed

00:34:45 --> 00:34:47

why he was doing it. He didn't tell

00:34:47 --> 00:34:48

any his salat wasalam. He knew why.

00:34:49 --> 00:34:52

He knew what happened. He knew how close

00:34:52 --> 00:34:54

this man was to being king

00:34:55 --> 00:34:57

and how his prophecy and his presence in

00:34:57 --> 00:34:58

Baniyah ruined all of it.

00:34:58 --> 00:35:00

So the part of the prophet alaihis salatu

00:35:00 --> 00:35:01

wasalam felt bad for him.

00:35:02 --> 00:35:03

It's very hard, by the way, to do

00:35:03 --> 00:35:04

this.

00:35:04 --> 00:35:06

It's hard for someone who like, you can

00:35:06 --> 00:35:08

feel bad for someone and then they harm

00:35:08 --> 00:35:10

you and they're like, taras. Gloves are off.

00:35:10 --> 00:35:12

Gloves are off. They they did something. This

00:35:12 --> 00:35:15

man harmed the prophet Alaihi salatu wa sallam

00:35:15 --> 00:35:17

12 times documented.

00:35:17 --> 00:35:19

Like 12 documented times in the Quran and

00:35:19 --> 00:35:20

the Sunnah.

00:35:20 --> 00:35:22

Aside from the times I don't even know

00:35:22 --> 00:35:24

about. Like 12 documented times he talks, called

00:35:24 --> 00:35:25

Aisha something.

00:35:26 --> 00:35:27

Like, you know, he went he went after

00:35:27 --> 00:35:29

his wife alaihis salatu wa sallam

00:35:30 --> 00:35:31

and still nothing.

00:35:32 --> 00:35:33

He still he still wouldn't because he in

00:35:33 --> 00:35:34

his heart he's like,

00:35:35 --> 00:35:36

he was gonna be king.

00:35:36 --> 00:35:38

And he took his throne and took his

00:35:38 --> 00:35:38

crown.

00:35:39 --> 00:35:40

So he kept on forgiving

00:35:40 --> 00:35:42

him. He kept on finding in his heart

00:35:42 --> 00:35:44

space to forgive this man. And when this

00:35:44 --> 00:35:46

man died later years later,

00:35:46 --> 00:35:47

his son

00:35:53 --> 00:35:55

I don't know why this story bothered it

00:35:55 --> 00:35:57

it it it I told this story like

00:35:57 --> 00:35:58

a 1000000 times. I can't get to I

00:35:59 --> 00:36:00

find this story very hard. I don't know

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

why. I don't know what the reason is,

00:36:01 --> 00:36:02

Subhanahu.

00:36:02 --> 00:36:04

When his dad died, his son Abdullo would

00:36:04 --> 00:36:05

come and tell the prophet,

00:36:07 --> 00:36:07

he died.

00:36:08 --> 00:36:10

Would would you sali upon him?

00:36:10 --> 00:36:13

And the prophet alaihis sali didn't didn't hesitate.

00:36:13 --> 00:36:15

He got up and not only did he

00:36:15 --> 00:36:17

praise Janazah for him, he

00:36:17 --> 00:36:18

he

00:36:18 --> 00:36:20

he encompassed him or enwrapped him with his

00:36:20 --> 00:36:22

own burqa alayhi wa sallam.

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

And then the Qur'an came and said, Then

00:36:25 --> 00:36:26

the Qur'an came and said, Don't do this

00:36:26 --> 00:36:29

again. But not before. Not before after. After

00:36:29 --> 00:36:31

because he wanted us, Subhanu wa ta'ala wanted

00:36:31 --> 00:36:32

to see this.

00:36:33 --> 00:36:35

Because Umar would the whole time as he's

00:36:35 --> 00:36:37

walking towards his jinnaza, Umar ibn Khabab ziyalasullahu.

00:36:37 --> 00:36:39

He's counting the 12 documented times. He did

00:36:39 --> 00:36:41

this. He said this. He did What are

00:36:41 --> 00:36:44

you doing? Don't go. Don't do this. Umar

00:36:44 --> 00:36:45

al Khattab You know this story because Umar

00:36:45 --> 00:36:46

al Khattab will say, There

00:36:47 --> 00:36:48

are 3 things I I told the prophet

00:36:48 --> 00:36:49

alaihis salam not to do and Allah Subhanahu

00:36:49 --> 00:36:51

Wa Ta'ala, yeah, and he agreed with me

00:36:51 --> 00:36:53

later. And one of the things was

00:36:57 --> 00:36:59

So whenever they did it again, alayhi, he

00:36:59 --> 00:37:00

did it for that guy

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

just for his son.

00:37:03 --> 00:37:05

And for the value of this Abdullah,

00:37:05 --> 00:37:07

you know, basically, it was his son, Abdullah.

00:37:07 --> 00:37:09

He says he didn't he couldn't break his

00:37:09 --> 00:37:10

heart. He couldn't. He couldn't tell his son

00:37:10 --> 00:37:11

that I won't do it for you and

00:37:11 --> 00:37:13

I'll do it for you. You're you're that's

00:37:13 --> 00:37:15

how valuable every Muslim was to him, alayhis

00:37:15 --> 00:37:16

salat. I mean, he's willing to forgive his

00:37:16 --> 00:37:17

father just for his son.

00:37:18 --> 00:37:18

Yeah.

00:37:19 --> 00:37:21

But that's something that's about his character. That

00:37:21 --> 00:37:23

he didn't he didn't, feel that, no I

00:37:23 --> 00:37:24

couldn't do it. You have not your father,

00:37:24 --> 00:37:26

Ayan. He's lucky I left. No. He just

00:37:27 --> 00:37:28

because death death

00:37:29 --> 00:37:31

Yeah. Death ends all grudges. Unless a person's

00:37:31 --> 00:37:33

dead, what's the point? I lost. They're dead.

00:37:33 --> 00:37:34

They lost.

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

They lost. They're dead. Any soon you'll be

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

dead too and there's nothing there's nothing It's

00:37:38 --> 00:37:40

so hard. Like it's such a waste of

00:37:40 --> 00:37:42

time to continue to carry a grudge after

00:37:42 --> 00:37:45

someone dies. Wallah, They're gone. They're with Allah.

00:37:45 --> 00:37:46

They're gonna take care of them. Let it

00:37:46 --> 00:37:48

go. Let it go. You know how to

00:37:48 --> 00:37:49

begin them but let it go. Don't don't

00:37:49 --> 00:37:51

continue to carry the, the hatred and the

00:37:51 --> 00:37:53

This is not worth it,

00:37:53 --> 00:37:55

will lie. The guy died.

00:37:59 --> 00:38:00

And he went to pray Janazapuram

00:38:01 --> 00:38:02

and he gave him his burda

00:38:03 --> 00:38:04

and it didn't change anything for this man.

00:38:04 --> 00:38:06

Allah Subhanahu Wa'ala said no he's not gonna

00:38:06 --> 00:38:08

get anything else but but he did it

00:38:08 --> 00:38:09

alayhi salatu wa sallam. And to me that's

00:38:09 --> 00:38:11

just fascinating because I don't know how he

00:38:11 --> 00:38:13

would do it. Like I can't I can't

00:38:13 --> 00:38:15

put a scenario in my mind where I

00:38:15 --> 00:38:17

would do that. And this is why I

00:38:17 --> 00:38:18

find this is why I think you should

00:38:18 --> 00:38:20

study his life in-depth because you're gonna run

00:38:20 --> 00:38:22

into a situation where

00:38:22 --> 00:38:24

it's almost impossible for you to imagine.

00:38:25 --> 00:38:26

Yeah. It's impossible

00:38:27 --> 00:38:28

to do what things he did alayhis salatu

00:38:28 --> 00:38:31

wa sallam. So selfless and so open hearted

00:38:31 --> 00:38:34

and so loving and so compassionate in ways

00:38:34 --> 00:38:36

that I just He was very brave and

00:38:36 --> 00:38:37

he stood his ground and he fought and

00:38:37 --> 00:38:39

he he wasn't he wasn't he wasn't a

00:38:39 --> 00:38:41

coward. He didn't he didn't back down when

00:38:41 --> 00:38:43

things need to be to be confronted and

00:38:43 --> 00:38:45

needed to be dealt with. He did that

00:38:45 --> 00:38:47

all of that. And when someone deserve But

00:38:47 --> 00:38:48

but but

00:38:48 --> 00:38:50

life would show you moments where he would,

00:38:50 --> 00:38:52

you know, that that compassionate people come out.

00:38:52 --> 00:38:53

And the guy

00:38:53 --> 00:38:55

died. Even though he did this. Even though

00:38:55 --> 00:38:57

he went around telling don't give any of

00:38:57 --> 00:38:59

the people around him money so he loses

00:38:59 --> 00:39:01

his He loses all of his And he

00:39:01 --> 00:39:03

start. This guy literally starved people to death.

00:39:04 --> 00:39:06

And he said the the example is the

00:39:06 --> 00:39:08

example of a of feeding and

00:39:08 --> 00:39:10

and and when we go there the the

00:39:10 --> 00:39:11

superior will find get rid of the imperial.

00:39:11 --> 00:39:13

He's saying all these things publicly, not even

00:39:13 --> 00:39:14

saying it in small groups where a few

00:39:14 --> 00:39:16

people are coming and bringing. Everyone knows about

00:39:16 --> 00:39:19

it. He is publicly trying to humiliate the

00:39:19 --> 00:39:20

prophet, alayhis salawat was

00:39:24 --> 00:39:25

because the prophet

00:39:26 --> 00:39:28

knows something that he doesn't.

00:39:28 --> 00:39:29

You know what it is?

00:39:30 --> 00:39:31

2nd piece of this verse.

00:39:32 --> 00:39:33

The verse says it.

00:39:40 --> 00:39:42

They don't know. They don't know that to

00:39:42 --> 00:39:44

Allah and to his prophets and to the

00:39:44 --> 00:39:44

believers

00:39:45 --> 00:39:47

all integrity and izzah belong

00:39:47 --> 00:39:49

Even if right now they are poor, even

00:39:49 --> 00:39:51

if they are dying, even if they don't

00:39:51 --> 00:39:53

run the world and own everything. Izzah, true

00:39:53 --> 00:39:56

integrity belongs to Allah and belongs to those

00:39:56 --> 00:39:58

who Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala bestows it upon

00:39:58 --> 00:40:00

them and that is the fact and that

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

is the truth. And the munafiq doesn't know

00:40:01 --> 00:40:03

that. The munafiq thinks he has some wealth,

00:40:03 --> 00:40:04

he has some and he has some support,

00:40:04 --> 00:40:06

he has that he has you don't have

00:40:06 --> 00:40:08

You're not the and he's not the Adal.

00:40:08 --> 00:40:09

It's the opposite.

00:40:09 --> 00:40:10

Why? Because

00:40:11 --> 00:40:13

is when things matter. Because

00:40:13 --> 00:40:15

is when things matter, when it's when it's

00:40:15 --> 00:40:17

forever, when it's eternal. And on that day,

00:40:17 --> 00:40:19

we'll see who is Aziz and who is

00:40:19 --> 00:40:22

Dalil, Who is a who has integrity and

00:40:22 --> 00:40:24

who doesn't. Who is held in high regard

00:40:24 --> 00:40:25

and who is humiliated and and

00:40:25 --> 00:40:27

And in that day, he doesn't know. He

00:40:27 --> 00:40:29

doesn't know. He He doesn't know what actually

00:40:29 --> 00:40:31

matters. He thinks this this short period of

00:40:31 --> 00:40:34

time is what is what No. It doesn't.

00:40:34 --> 00:40:36

It doesn't. It's what's gonna come later.

00:40:36 --> 00:40:38

It's what it's living for the right cause,

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

for the right reason in the right way

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

that's going to

00:40:41 --> 00:40:42

it's going to make you and put you

00:40:42 --> 00:40:44

in the position of is on the day

00:40:44 --> 00:40:46

of judgment because it belongs to God. It

00:40:46 --> 00:40:47

belongs to no one else but him. He

00:40:47 --> 00:40:49

gives an illusion of it to some people

00:40:49 --> 00:40:50

in this dunya and he takes it back

00:40:50 --> 00:40:52

and then he bestows upon his beloved on

00:40:52 --> 00:40:53

the day of judgment. So make sure you're

00:40:53 --> 00:40:55

amongst them. Just make sure you're amongst them.

00:40:55 --> 00:40:56

That's all.

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

They don't know. The munafiq doesn't know Doesn't

00:41:02 --> 00:41:03

know who

00:41:04 --> 00:41:06

will have in the first ayah before belongs

00:41:06 --> 00:41:08

to. The munafiq doesn't know who true isza

00:41:08 --> 00:41:10

belongs to. So the munafiq because they don't

00:41:10 --> 00:41:12

know, they withhold their wealth and they build

00:41:12 --> 00:41:15

alliances with with enemies just because they're scared,

00:41:15 --> 00:41:17

they want strength. They don't know that their

00:41:17 --> 00:41:19

wealth comes from God, so give it generously.

00:41:19 --> 00:41:21

They don't know that izzah comes from God,

00:41:21 --> 00:41:23

so your ally is Allah and those whom

00:41:23 --> 00:41:24

He loves and not the enemy who has

00:41:24 --> 00:41:26

wealth and has strength. But the munafiq doesn't

00:41:26 --> 00:41:29

know. So they build alliances with people based

00:41:29 --> 00:41:30

on strength and they withhold wealth because they

00:41:30 --> 00:41:32

think that wealth is they don't know.

00:41:34 --> 00:41:37

Twice. Right? They lack clarity. They lack knowledge.

00:41:37 --> 00:41:38

They don't know.

00:41:38 --> 00:41:40

So make sure you know. Make sure you

00:41:40 --> 00:41:42

know what matters, what counts, what's real and

00:41:42 --> 00:41:43

what's just

00:41:44 --> 00:41:46

temporary and doesn't matter, never did, and we'll

00:41:46 --> 00:41:48

add up to nothing later on in life.

00:41:49 --> 00:41:51

Speak to people who are in their eighties

00:41:51 --> 00:41:52

nineties, and they'll give you these pieces of

00:41:52 --> 00:41:53

wisdom for free.

00:41:54 --> 00:41:55

Speak to them non Muslim.

00:41:56 --> 00:41:58

Put up to some non Muslim 90 year

00:41:58 --> 00:41:59

old. They'll give you this piece of Buddhism

00:41:59 --> 00:42:02

for free. They'll tell you that, no. No.

00:42:02 --> 00:42:04

Stand by what you think is right. Live

00:42:04 --> 00:42:05

by what you think is right. Nothing that

00:42:05 --> 00:42:06

matters at the end.

00:42:07 --> 00:42:08

At the end, you end up feeling that

00:42:08 --> 00:42:11

your life was just aashiya then alduha.

00:42:11 --> 00:42:14

You sit there with 90. You don't even

00:42:14 --> 00:42:16

know how you got there. You can't even

00:42:16 --> 00:42:17

you don't even know how where time went

00:42:18 --> 00:42:19

and you feel like your whole life was

00:42:19 --> 00:42:20

a waste. What did I do?

00:42:21 --> 00:42:22

What do I stand for?

00:42:23 --> 00:42:24

What is my legacy?

00:42:24 --> 00:42:25

What have I

00:42:25 --> 00:42:27

what have I done with the time that

00:42:27 --> 00:42:27

I had?

00:42:29 --> 00:42:30

If you didn't Yeah.

00:42:31 --> 00:42:32

The interesting piece, at the end of the

00:42:32 --> 00:42:35

story is that Abdullah ibn Abillah, he couldn't

00:42:35 --> 00:42:36

help it.

00:42:36 --> 00:42:38

He was so upset by what his father

00:42:38 --> 00:42:39

did, he came to his father and the

00:42:39 --> 00:42:40

posse around him.

00:42:43 --> 00:42:44

You said that? You said that?

00:42:50 --> 00:42:52

You will not enter Medina until he gives

00:42:52 --> 00:42:53

you permission, and I'm gonna stand between you

00:42:53 --> 00:42:54

and Medina.

00:42:54 --> 00:42:57

So his father started to call.

00:43:01 --> 00:43:03

My my son is is between me and

00:43:03 --> 00:43:05

my home. He's not letting me go in.

00:43:05 --> 00:43:06

They left him. Abdullah ibn Abdullah was a

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

man. He was a

00:43:08 --> 00:43:09

a He didn't want to mess with him.

00:43:09 --> 00:43:10

He wasn't

00:43:10 --> 00:43:11

any

00:43:11 --> 00:43:13

guy. And he told his father, you're not

00:43:13 --> 00:43:15

entering until you seek permission

00:43:15 --> 00:43:18

from the a'as, the one who is superior.

00:43:18 --> 00:43:19

You'll seek permission from him. If he lets

00:43:19 --> 00:43:22

you in, then you'll come in. The whole

00:43:22 --> 00:43:25

army entered Madinah and Abdullah ibn Ubayb al

00:43:25 --> 00:43:26

salud and the people with him

00:43:26 --> 00:43:29

were held outside by Abdul his son. They're

00:43:29 --> 00:43:31

not going in. The prophet alaihis saloon knew

00:43:31 --> 00:43:32

nothing none of this.

00:43:32 --> 00:43:34

You know this? Someone told him, You Rasulullah,

00:43:34 --> 00:43:37

by the way, Abdullah ibn Abdullah ibn Abdullah

00:43:37 --> 00:43:39

is holding his father outside saying that he

00:43:39 --> 00:43:40

won't come in without your permission.

00:43:44 --> 00:43:46

Tell him to let him in.

00:43:50 --> 00:43:52

And tell him to be to show Bir

00:43:52 --> 00:43:53

to his father.

00:43:54 --> 00:43:55

Tell him to show Bir to his father

00:43:55 --> 00:43:57

and to allow his father to come in.

00:44:04 --> 00:44:05

As now the prophet

00:44:05 --> 00:44:06

is telling me to do this, then, yes,

00:44:06 --> 00:44:08

you're welcome to enter your hope.

00:44:09 --> 00:44:10

Is mine.

00:44:12 --> 00:44:13

So, subhanAllah, he got it from his own

00:44:13 --> 00:44:14

family

00:44:15 --> 00:44:15

from his own family.

00:44:17 --> 00:44:17

Like,

00:44:18 --> 00:44:21

So it's the finale of Surah Al Murafi

00:44:21 --> 00:44:22

which is a beautiful

00:44:23 --> 00:44:26

these three verses are really very beautiful and

00:44:26 --> 00:44:27

most people know them and memorize them by

00:44:27 --> 00:44:29

heart. We'll recite them. They're like a piece

00:44:29 --> 00:44:30

of advice.

00:44:30 --> 00:44:33

Like after the surah described the munafiqeen, gave

00:44:33 --> 00:44:34

us a couple of descriptions.

00:44:34 --> 00:44:35

It told us the munafiqeen

00:44:36 --> 00:44:37

are people who say one

00:44:38 --> 00:44:39

thing but don't actually have the buy in.

00:44:39 --> 00:44:41

They say nashjhun al rasulullah, but they don't

00:44:41 --> 00:44:42

actually do what they have to do for

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

it. It. They use Islam as a way

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

to protect themselves to get the perks, but

00:44:46 --> 00:44:48

no, they're not gonna carry any of the

00:44:48 --> 00:44:50

weight. They're not gonna contribute just gonna take

00:44:50 --> 00:44:51

the good.

00:44:52 --> 00:44:54

There are people who they know how to

00:44:54 --> 00:44:57

speak, they look, they dress well, they're superficial

00:44:57 --> 00:44:59

but no essence. And there are people who

00:44:59 --> 00:44:59

are

00:45:03 --> 00:45:05

They carry the guilt. They know that they're

00:45:05 --> 00:45:07

at fault. So they're always anytime someone talks

00:45:07 --> 00:45:09

about this, they feel that they're meant by

00:45:09 --> 00:45:10

it even no one's actually speaking to them.

00:45:10 --> 00:45:11

It's like when you know that you've done

00:45:11 --> 00:45:13

something wrong. When someone talks about that wrong

00:45:13 --> 00:45:14

thing, you feel like it's addressing you. But

00:45:14 --> 00:45:16

it's not addressing you. It's just a generic.

00:45:17 --> 00:45:19

The enemy, beware of them. They have no

00:45:19 --> 00:45:21

respect to the Prophet alaihis salaam. They don't

00:45:21 --> 00:45:22

care about their sin

00:45:23 --> 00:45:24

in any form or manner. They withhold their

00:45:24 --> 00:45:27

wealth when they're capable of giving it, and

00:45:28 --> 00:45:30

they they are big on the the racist

00:45:30 --> 00:45:32

piece. They don't like Islam. They want to

00:45:32 --> 00:45:33

go back to the tribal way.

00:45:43 --> 00:45:44

And each group comes to their own thing

00:45:44 --> 00:45:46

and we fight towards one another and we

00:45:46 --> 00:45:47

have that's what they want to do. They

00:45:47 --> 00:45:48

don't like the fact that Islam brought people

00:45:48 --> 00:45:50

together and just made us all equal and

00:45:50 --> 00:45:51

made us all brothers. We don't like that

00:45:51 --> 00:45:53

piece. Here's the descriptions that the Quran has

00:45:53 --> 00:45:54

given so that the surah has given of

00:45:54 --> 00:45:57

the so think about them long and hard.

00:45:57 --> 00:45:58

Take time and reflect upon these but because

00:45:58 --> 00:46:00

they're because they're problematic.

00:46:03 --> 00:46:04

We all have a little bit of it.

00:46:04 --> 00:46:06

We're all carrying a little bit of that

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

in our

00:46:08 --> 00:46:09

you our hearts, may Allah forgive us. And

00:46:09 --> 00:46:11

this last piece here is a is an

00:46:11 --> 00:46:13

advice. It's direct advice to the believers. So

00:46:13 --> 00:46:14

direct advice for all of us. It's really

00:46:14 --> 00:46:16

beautiful. So recite them inshallah and inshallah you'll

00:46:16 --> 00:46:16

find them nice.

00:47:24 --> 00:47:25

So watch out.

00:47:27 --> 00:47:28

So it's not So the dal here is

00:47:28 --> 00:47:28

usually,

00:47:31 --> 00:47:33

ignored or oppressed, and then you give a

00:47:33 --> 00:47:34

bomba to it. So it's not

00:47:35 --> 00:47:36

ahadakumu.

00:47:36 --> 00:47:38

And then the word mote has a bomba

00:47:38 --> 00:47:39

on it. So it's ahadakumuul

00:47:39 --> 00:47:40

mautu.

00:47:41 --> 00:47:43

So the fa'al here, the subject is maut,

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

and the

00:47:44 --> 00:47:46

or the object is is is one of

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

you.

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

Because you don't go to death, death comes

00:47:49 --> 00:47:50

to you.

00:47:50 --> 00:47:53

So it's just the sometimes the subject can

00:47:53 --> 00:47:54

be put behind the object. In Arabic, you

00:47:54 --> 00:47:56

can move things around a bit for a

00:47:56 --> 00:47:58

reason. There's a reason for why we do

00:47:58 --> 00:47:59

do this. I'll try explain inshallah in a

00:47:59 --> 00:47:59

moment.

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

Moment. Just watch out. And if you were

00:48:01 --> 00:48:02

continue,

00:48:03 --> 00:48:04

If you were to continue, we stopped in

00:48:04 --> 00:48:06

notes because we stopped. It's gonna have a

00:48:06 --> 00:48:08

sukoon. But if you were to continue, it'll

00:48:08 --> 00:48:10

be with a on it. Alright.

00:48:32 --> 00:48:35

So this is this aya is a is

00:48:35 --> 00:48:37

a when I examine the students who are

00:48:37 --> 00:48:40

trying to pass this juju, this is like

00:48:40 --> 00:48:42

a a a guaranteed question. I tell them,

00:48:42 --> 00:48:42

read.

00:48:43 --> 00:48:45

And they make one mistake on it, I

00:48:45 --> 00:48:46

send them back. I'll see you fail. This

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

is like I I I used to have

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

when I used to do this with students,

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

I used to have

00:48:51 --> 00:48:52

like, deal breakers.

00:48:52 --> 00:48:54

I call them deal breakers. For every Jizzit,

00:48:54 --> 00:48:56

there were a couple of deal breakers. If

00:48:56 --> 00:48:58

I examine you, make a mistake there, you're

00:48:58 --> 00:49:00

out. It doesn't matter how perfectly you do

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

everything else. If you get one of these

00:49:01 --> 00:49:03

words wrong, you're out. So

00:49:09 --> 00:49:11

Right? So you have to get them all

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

right.

00:49:12 --> 00:49:12

With

00:49:13 --> 00:49:13

a

00:49:14 --> 00:49:15

with a with a bum on the

00:49:24 --> 00:49:25

amongst us. Yeah. Alhamdulillah. They didn't stop coming

00:49:25 --> 00:49:28

to the Muslim altogether, but I would fail

00:49:28 --> 00:49:30

people. Because some some mistakes you have you

00:49:30 --> 00:49:31

have to know if you're if you if

00:49:31 --> 00:49:32

you're proficient in the jujul, you have to

00:49:32 --> 00:49:34

know this ayah and how to recite it

00:49:34 --> 00:49:35

appropriately. Alright.

00:50:12 --> 00:50:14

So he says, Subhanu wa Ta'ala,

00:50:15 --> 00:50:16

All those who believe

00:50:20 --> 00:50:20

is

00:50:22 --> 00:50:23

distraction.

00:50:24 --> 00:50:25

Is to be distracted.

00:50:27 --> 00:50:29

Is when you do something that is purposeless.

00:50:29 --> 00:50:31

It's just fun. It's purposeless. It doesn't have

00:50:31 --> 00:50:33

a There's no there's no benefit of it.

00:50:34 --> 00:50:36

You can be doing something that's purposeful but

00:50:36 --> 00:50:37

it's not the right thing to do right

00:50:37 --> 00:50:39

now. Like in priority wise, it's not the

00:50:39 --> 00:50:40

right thing to do. So it's called blahu.

00:50:40 --> 00:50:42

So it can be something purposeful, something helpful,

00:50:42 --> 00:50:44

something that has an objective. It's just not

00:50:44 --> 00:50:45

the right thing to do right now. It's

00:50:45 --> 00:50:47

like if you have an exam and you're,

00:50:47 --> 00:50:48

you know, you're cleaning your room.

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

You're, you know, you're

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

organizing your desk. It's a very

00:50:53 --> 00:50:55

purposeful activity, not what you should be doing

00:50:55 --> 00:50:56

today. Do it after your exam, do it

00:50:56 --> 00:50:58

that, not now. But this So do something

00:50:58 --> 00:50:59

to distract yourself.

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

So the and laib is just a it's

00:51:01 --> 00:51:04

just funner games. Yes. There there is some

00:51:04 --> 00:51:06

benefit obviously from playing certain things, especially kids

00:51:06 --> 00:51:07

who are playing sports and whatnot, but but

00:51:07 --> 00:51:08

laib is just

00:51:09 --> 00:51:12

basically an activity that has no purpose to

00:51:12 --> 00:51:14

it. It's just it's just for pure joy.

00:51:14 --> 00:51:16

And adults will do that and it's fine.

00:51:16 --> 00:51:19

It's not haram to to lab. It's not

00:51:19 --> 00:51:21

haram. It's just when it's not in the

00:51:21 --> 00:51:22

right time for it or not in the

00:51:22 --> 00:51:24

right way, then that's a problem for you.

00:51:24 --> 00:51:26

So it's just something. So it's not and

00:51:26 --> 00:51:27

we talked about this when we recite this

00:51:27 --> 00:51:28

with Hadith. I talked about this in some

00:51:28 --> 00:51:29

degree of depth.

00:51:31 --> 00:51:32

That's why I explained them in some degree

00:51:32 --> 00:51:33

of depth. You can go back to that

00:51:33 --> 00:51:34

if you want to listen to if this

00:51:34 --> 00:51:35

is something that

00:51:36 --> 00:51:37

care about. So, all those who believe,

00:51:38 --> 00:51:39

Do not be distracted

00:51:42 --> 00:51:42

by

00:51:46 --> 00:51:48

Do not let your wealth,

00:51:49 --> 00:51:50

nor your children,

00:51:51 --> 00:51:52

finance and social.

00:51:53 --> 00:51:56

That's what these two things in the Quran

00:51:56 --> 00:51:57

always refer to.

00:51:58 --> 00:52:00

Is all is always referring to the financial

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

aspect of of, of life, The financial joy

00:52:03 --> 00:52:04

of life or the financial needs.

00:52:06 --> 00:52:10

For example, right, is referring to the social

00:52:10 --> 00:52:12

aspect of life because you have people around

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

you. So you're not alone. You're not lonely.

00:52:14 --> 00:52:16

People know that when you grow old, you

00:52:16 --> 00:52:18

want people around you. People who enjoy your

00:52:18 --> 00:52:19

company. People want to be with you.

00:52:20 --> 00:52:22

This is something we have to talk about

00:52:22 --> 00:52:23

in this community a little bit more.

00:52:25 --> 00:52:27

I don't think I think a lot of

00:52:27 --> 00:52:28

us come from backgrounds where where it's not

00:52:28 --> 00:52:30

needed to be talked about a lot, But

00:52:30 --> 00:52:31

now we have to start actually discussing this

00:52:31 --> 00:52:34

within our within this society more. People are

00:52:34 --> 00:52:35

getting older

00:52:35 --> 00:52:36

and

00:52:37 --> 00:52:38

they're lonely.

00:52:39 --> 00:52:40

You can be alone but you shouldn't be

00:52:40 --> 00:52:41

lonely.

00:52:41 --> 00:52:41

Right?

00:52:42 --> 00:52:44

Being alone is helpful. It's actually very therapeutic.

00:52:44 --> 00:52:46

It's it's healthy to be alone, to sit

00:52:46 --> 00:52:47

around on yourself,

00:52:48 --> 00:52:51

contemplate, reflect, think, write, journal, read. These are

00:52:51 --> 00:52:54

very good. But lonely is where is where

00:52:54 --> 00:52:56

you want companionship when you can't find it.

00:52:56 --> 00:52:58

Where you need an ear.

00:52:58 --> 00:53:00

You need someone to listen to you or

00:53:00 --> 00:53:02

someone to speak to you or someone to

00:53:02 --> 00:53:03

be with you and you don't have them.

00:53:03 --> 00:53:05

And you need support and you need and

00:53:05 --> 00:53:06

you don't have that. That's loneliness.

00:53:07 --> 00:53:08

Loneliness is not okay.

00:53:09 --> 00:53:11

We we should not be Muslims

00:53:11 --> 00:53:13

in a Muslim community they should not be

00:53:13 --> 00:53:14

people who are lonely.

00:53:15 --> 00:53:16

People can be alone.

00:53:16 --> 00:53:18

Introverts like to be alone and that's totally

00:53:18 --> 00:53:20

fine and they should be, But lonely,

00:53:21 --> 00:53:22

that shouldn't be the case.

00:53:23 --> 00:53:24

And that's why the Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

00:53:24 --> 00:53:26

talks a lot about all

00:53:26 --> 00:53:29

the time. You're like, okay, you know, money

00:53:29 --> 00:53:30

and kids. No. No. It's not just money

00:53:30 --> 00:53:31

and kids.

00:53:31 --> 00:53:34

It's money as in financial. You have enough

00:53:34 --> 00:53:35

to get through your day. You're not starving.

00:53:35 --> 00:53:37

You have clothing. That's why And then what

00:53:37 --> 00:53:39

does it mean you have someone there?

00:53:39 --> 00:53:41

Right? That's why the Quran talks

00:53:41 --> 00:53:42

about al miskeen,

00:53:42 --> 00:53:44

who is the one who is financially deprived,

00:53:45 --> 00:53:47

and the Yateem who is the one who

00:53:47 --> 00:53:49

is socially deprived. Because the Yateem can have

00:53:49 --> 00:53:50

a lot of money. Could have inherited, you

00:53:50 --> 00:53:52

know, the Bruce Wayne.

00:53:53 --> 00:53:54

You can

00:53:54 --> 00:53:56

You can have someone who your team doesn't

00:53:56 --> 00:53:58

has a lot of money but has no

00:53:58 --> 00:53:59

parents, no one to love them, no one

00:53:59 --> 00:54:02

to love back and they're lonely. So that's

00:54:02 --> 00:54:03

a social deprivations,

00:54:03 --> 00:54:05

the deprivement. And And that's a problem. And

00:54:05 --> 00:54:07

then there's the miskeen was a lot of

00:54:07 --> 00:54:08

people maybe but doesn't have enough wealth to

00:54:08 --> 00:54:09

take care of them and that someone who

00:54:09 --> 00:54:11

needs financial support. So the Quran is very

00:54:11 --> 00:54:12

very

00:54:13 --> 00:54:15

specific on these two needs and these two

00:54:16 --> 00:54:18

perks and benefits, which is the financial and

00:54:18 --> 00:54:20

the social. You need both. You need both.

00:54:20 --> 00:54:22

Enough of both to survive, and you shouldn't

00:54:22 --> 00:54:23

be deprived of either of them to the

00:54:23 --> 00:54:25

point where you're not able to be functional.

00:54:25 --> 00:54:27

But this verse is saying, don't let them

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

distract you. If you have enough of both,

00:54:29 --> 00:54:31

do not allow them to be distractions.

00:54:35 --> 00:54:37

From the remembrance of Allah. This doesn't mean

00:54:37 --> 00:54:39

that you're sitting there trying to do Astaghfirullah

00:54:39 --> 00:54:41

Astaghfirullah and your kid asks you to come

00:54:41 --> 00:54:42

to you and you're like, I'm trying to

00:54:42 --> 00:54:44

Astaghfirullah. And then Allah said, don't know. This

00:54:44 --> 00:54:46

is not about this. This is looking. This

00:54:46 --> 00:54:48

is a zoom out ayah. Don't

00:54:48 --> 00:54:49

allow

00:54:50 --> 00:54:51

what He gave you,

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

what He blessed you with, distract you from

00:54:54 --> 00:54:56

why He created you to begin with. That's

00:54:56 --> 00:54:58

what this is saying. This is what this

00:54:58 --> 00:54:59

is saying. He gave you wealth and he

00:54:59 --> 00:55:01

gave you social support. You have, you have

00:55:01 --> 00:55:02

a family, you have wealth. He blessed you

00:55:02 --> 00:55:04

with that. Don't allow those two things to

00:55:04 --> 00:55:06

distract you from why he created you to

00:55:06 --> 00:55:07

begin with.

00:55:07 --> 00:55:09

What you're here to do? What your job

00:55:09 --> 00:55:11

is? What's your purpose is? If you allow

00:55:11 --> 00:55:14

the things he gave you to distract you

00:55:14 --> 00:55:15

from him, Subhanahu wa ta'ala, then this is

00:55:15 --> 00:55:16

a problem. This is a this is a

00:55:16 --> 00:55:17

problem of nifaq.

00:55:18 --> 00:55:20

He gave you wealth. He gave you social

00:55:20 --> 00:55:21

support. He gave it to you so that

00:55:21 --> 00:55:23

you may use it to please Him Subhanahu

00:55:23 --> 00:55:25

Wa Ta'ala. So you use it to actually

00:55:25 --> 00:55:26

strengthen and improve your way to get to

00:55:26 --> 00:55:28

Him Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. So don't lose them

00:55:28 --> 00:55:29

as distractions.

00:55:30 --> 00:55:31

Because they're easy. You can easily

00:55:31 --> 00:55:33

live all your life, focus on your money,

00:55:33 --> 00:55:35

making more money, increasing your money, increasing your

00:55:35 --> 00:55:37

business, investing and making more. And and your

00:55:37 --> 00:55:40

time visiting this person, visiting that person, traveling

00:55:40 --> 00:55:42

this person and things. You can totally be

00:55:42 --> 00:55:44

distracted by them and nothing else is important.

00:55:45 --> 00:55:46

No. No.

00:55:46 --> 00:55:49

Enjoy them, of course. No one's saying

00:55:49 --> 00:55:50

give away your money.

00:55:50 --> 00:55:52

No one's saying remove your children.

00:55:53 --> 00:55:54

It's the opposite.

00:55:54 --> 00:55:56

Islam tells you, preserve your wealth.

00:55:57 --> 00:55:58

Use your wealth.

00:55:58 --> 00:55:59

Love your children.

00:55:59 --> 00:56:01

Take care of your children. Just don't let

00:56:01 --> 00:56:03

them distract you from the bigger picture. That's

00:56:03 --> 00:56:04

all.

00:56:05 --> 00:56:07

Don't let them distract you.

00:56:08 --> 00:56:08

From

00:56:09 --> 00:56:11

knowing and remembering Allah and remembering why he

00:56:11 --> 00:56:12

put you here. It's not an issue of

00:56:12 --> 00:56:14

I'm sitting at my house and I want

00:56:14 --> 00:56:16

to do some tasbih and my my wife

00:56:16 --> 00:56:17

is not leaving or my children aren't being

00:56:17 --> 00:56:19

quiet or my No. That's not what this

00:56:19 --> 00:56:20

is about at all.

00:56:21 --> 00:56:23

Many situations, it's more important actually to attend

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

to your family. Attending to your family with

00:56:24 --> 00:56:26

right intention is an act of worship. It's

00:56:26 --> 00:56:29

a really good act of worship actually. It's

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

very good to raise them and teach them

00:56:30 --> 00:56:32

and take care of them, to work and

00:56:32 --> 00:56:34

make wealth. That's You're commanded to do so.

00:56:34 --> 00:56:37

You're not allowed to walk around Yani. Again,

00:56:37 --> 00:56:38

no one's The surah has been talking about

00:56:38 --> 00:56:40

freeloaders. You're not supposed to do that. But

00:56:40 --> 00:56:41

now that you have it,

00:56:41 --> 00:56:43

don't let it distract you. Because it can

00:56:43 --> 00:56:44

easily become a distraction.

00:56:47 --> 00:56:48

It can easily become a distraction

00:56:49 --> 00:56:51

and take you away from the purpose for

00:56:51 --> 00:56:52

why you are here.

00:56:53 --> 00:56:55

He created the dunya for you and he

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

created you for himself.

00:56:57 --> 00:56:59

Don't be distracted by what he created

00:56:59 --> 00:57:00

for you

00:57:01 --> 00:57:03

from the purpose for which he created you

00:57:03 --> 00:57:04

for.

00:57:04 --> 00:57:06

Because if you do then you're in this

00:57:06 --> 00:57:07

vicious cycle.

00:57:08 --> 00:57:09

Like he made duniya for you and you're

00:57:09 --> 00:57:10

living for duniya.

00:57:11 --> 00:57:12

This is pathetic.

00:57:13 --> 00:57:15

No. He made duniya for you, he made

00:57:15 --> 00:57:17

you for him. So make sure that that

00:57:17 --> 00:57:19

this is the hierarchy that this works upon.

00:57:19 --> 00:57:21

Dunya is there for you so that you

00:57:21 --> 00:57:22

can be for him subhanahu wa ta'ala. So

00:57:22 --> 00:57:24

be for Allah with the duniya that you

00:57:24 --> 00:57:24

have.

00:57:25 --> 00:57:25

Don't

00:57:26 --> 00:57:28

The duniya that's for you, you're going to

00:57:28 --> 00:57:29

live for it.

00:57:30 --> 00:57:32

Nah, that that's not that's not a good

00:57:32 --> 00:57:34

way to live anyways. You know that at

00:57:34 --> 00:57:35

the end. You figured that at the end

00:57:35 --> 00:57:36

that that wasn't the right way to do

00:57:36 --> 00:57:38

it. So yes, enjoy your wealth and love

00:57:38 --> 00:57:40

your children, but they shouldn't be distractions.

00:57:41 --> 00:57:43

They should be helping you get closer to

00:57:43 --> 00:57:43

Allah.

00:57:43 --> 00:57:45

This is not telling you to spend less

00:57:45 --> 00:57:48

time or to ignore or to neglect. It's

00:57:48 --> 00:57:50

telling you to utilize appropriately.

00:57:51 --> 00:57:53

It's telling you to see them

00:57:53 --> 00:57:55

the way they should be seen as blessings,

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

as means for you to be closer to

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

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala to be a better

00:57:59 --> 00:58:01

human being. Your wealth is there so that

00:58:01 --> 00:58:02

you make it closer to Allah, so that

00:58:02 --> 00:58:04

you can use it to please Allah. Your

00:58:04 --> 00:58:05

children are there so you can raise them

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

to be good Muslims so that they are

00:58:06 --> 00:58:08

also close to Allah and all of you

00:58:08 --> 00:58:09

are closer to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. This

00:58:09 --> 00:58:11

is why they're there. But if you don't

00:58:11 --> 00:58:12

see that and you're distracted by the fact

00:58:12 --> 00:58:13

that you're well supported,

00:58:15 --> 00:58:18

you're you're strong and you're wealthy and yours.

00:58:19 --> 00:58:22

Don't let them distract you. Let them take

00:58:22 --> 00:58:23

away the focus.

00:58:24 --> 00:58:26

And those of you who do that, who

00:58:26 --> 00:58:29

allow their wealth and their children, their social

00:58:29 --> 00:58:31

and financial support to distract them from their

00:58:31 --> 00:58:32

purpose.

00:58:35 --> 00:58:36

And those are the ones who are going

00:58:36 --> 00:58:37

to be the biggest losers on the day

00:58:37 --> 00:58:38

of judgement.

00:58:39 --> 00:58:40

They are the ones who will lose all

00:58:40 --> 00:58:41

of it.

00:58:42 --> 00:58:44

Their wealth is not there and their children

00:58:44 --> 00:58:46

aren't there and they'll have nothing.

00:58:47 --> 00:58:49

Had they used their wealth and their

00:58:49 --> 00:58:51

children in a way that pleases

00:58:52 --> 00:58:53

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, they'll find all of

00:58:53 --> 00:58:55

it waiting for them. They'll find they'll find

00:58:55 --> 00:58:57

their wealth in their mizan al sanat and

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

their children

00:58:59 --> 00:59:01

and their children waiting for them. Taking them

00:59:01 --> 00:59:03

by their hands as they enter jannah together.

00:59:03 --> 00:59:05

Because either you it's your family.

00:59:06 --> 00:59:07

You you look at your spouse, you look

00:59:07 --> 00:59:08

at your children, you see you see the

00:59:08 --> 00:59:10

people who you're going to be entering jannah

00:59:11 --> 00:59:12

not,

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

not the opposite.

00:59:15 --> 00:59:17

Not the opposite. Well, I this aya is,

00:59:17 --> 00:59:18

yeah. I mean,

00:59:18 --> 00:59:20

it's it's yeah. It's a it's a very

00:59:20 --> 00:59:22

powerful one if you if you're able to

00:59:22 --> 00:59:24

to zoom out a little bit and contemplate.

00:59:24 --> 00:59:25

We're very blessed.

00:59:26 --> 00:59:28

Those of us who have enough wealth to

00:59:28 --> 00:59:30

to, you know, to to fill our fridges

00:59:30 --> 00:59:31

and and close our doors at the end

00:59:31 --> 00:59:32

of night. And those of us who have

00:59:32 --> 00:59:34

people who love us and people whom we

00:59:34 --> 00:59:35

love back.

00:59:35 --> 00:59:37

This is a we are very blessed.

00:59:37 --> 00:59:39

He's saying subhanahu wa ta'ala, don't let that

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

blessing distract you though. Because any blessing I

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

give you, I give it to you for

00:59:42 --> 00:59:44

a purpose. Use it well. Use it well.

00:59:44 --> 00:59:45

Use it in a way that will please

00:59:45 --> 00:59:46

me. SubhanAllah.

00:59:47 --> 00:59:48

Use it in a way that will please

00:59:48 --> 00:59:49

Allah subhanAllah. Don't use it in a way

00:59:49 --> 00:59:51

that distracts you. Now you're focused on it.

00:59:51 --> 00:59:52

You're focused on every aspect of it. You're

00:59:52 --> 00:59:53

just

00:59:53 --> 00:59:55

you forget why you were given it to

00:59:55 --> 00:59:56

the in the first place and then maybe

00:59:56 --> 00:59:58

it's taken away from you later on.

00:59:58 --> 01:00:00

Subhanu wa ta'ala.

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

The second piece of advice he gives us

01:00:02 --> 01:00:03

subhanahu wa ta'ala at the end of sukumunafiqun.

01:00:05 --> 01:00:06

It's almost like this

01:00:07 --> 01:00:08

he explained the munafiqun to us and they

01:00:08 --> 01:00:09

said look

01:00:09 --> 01:00:11

Here's what you need to do so that

01:00:11 --> 01:00:13

you're not amongst them. Here's 2 tips that

01:00:13 --> 01:00:15

you're not Number 1, don't allow what I

01:00:15 --> 01:00:17

give you to distract you. I will give

01:00:17 --> 01:00:18

you wealth. I will give you social support.

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

You're gonna get both in your life. At

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

different time and different different degrees. You'll get

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

both. Don't allow them to distract you from

01:00:24 --> 01:00:26

why I created you. I created you. Remember

01:00:26 --> 01:00:28

me? The the gorilla. Know know who I

01:00:28 --> 01:00:29

am? I created you. I give you a

01:00:29 --> 01:00:30

purpose. Do not allow what I gave you

01:00:30 --> 01:00:32

distract you from what I created you for.

01:00:32 --> 01:00:35

Alright? Number 1. That's the that's the first,

01:00:35 --> 01:00:37

vaccine for against nifaq so that we don't

01:00:37 --> 01:00:39

have it. That's the first vaccination.

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

Number 2.

01:00:44 --> 01:00:47

And give from that which We gave you.

01:00:47 --> 01:00:49

A risk because anything you're given.

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

Your knowledge is risk. Your time is risk.

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

Your expertise is risk. Your emotions are risk.

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

Your wealth is risk. Everything that you have

01:00:55 --> 01:00:56

is risk.

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

Is when you spend. You give something. You

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

give something. Yeah. It's not You give it

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

away and you're not waiting for anything in

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

return. That's infar.

01:01:05 --> 01:01:06

Buying something is not infar.

01:01:07 --> 01:01:08

No. That's a transaction. You give something, get

01:01:08 --> 01:01:11

something in back. The bay'a 'awashila. In fact,

01:01:11 --> 01:01:12

as you give it, it disappears. It's like

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

it goes into an nafak. You don't see

01:01:14 --> 01:01:15

it. That's why the the word comes from.

01:01:15 --> 01:01:17

And when alafiq, by the way, it comes

01:01:17 --> 01:01:18

from the same I I talked about this

01:01:18 --> 01:01:19

at the beginning. It comes from the same

01:01:19 --> 01:01:22

root. It's because he shows you that what

01:01:22 --> 01:01:23

he what he doesn't have on the inside.

01:01:23 --> 01:01:26

So you So you're not seeing things clearly.

01:01:26 --> 01:01:28

Something has disappeared, something is not there, something

01:01:28 --> 01:01:28

is missing.

01:01:29 --> 01:01:31

Something is missing because they're saying La Illa

01:01:31 --> 01:01:32

Illa Allah but there's no output.

01:01:33 --> 01:01:34

When you say,

01:01:35 --> 01:01:36

there should be outputs right away. There's there's

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

something to There's nothing. It's just there's nothing

01:01:38 --> 01:01:41

there. That's a problem. There's something missing. Nafak

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

there's always something that you gave the something

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

went in there, it's missing now. Anfikoh, you

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

gave the oath, it's gone. It's gone. It's

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

not there. It's missing. It'll come back your

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

milkhi amadur.

01:01:50 --> 01:01:52

That's that's the point with infaq. Is that

01:01:52 --> 01:01:53

it's missing now. You gave it, it's gone.

01:01:53 --> 01:01:54

You gave it to somebody, took it, they

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

left. They're not gonna come back give it

01:01:55 --> 01:01:57

to you. It's not alone and they're not

01:01:57 --> 01:01:58

gonna thank you for it.

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

It's just it'll come back later.

01:02:03 --> 01:02:05

It'll come back later. You'll find it in

01:02:05 --> 01:02:06

your milk. And when it matters, when it

01:02:06 --> 01:02:07

really matters.

01:02:08 --> 01:02:10

When it really counts, you'll find it. So

01:02:10 --> 01:02:12

give from that which you have. What you

01:02:12 --> 01:02:13

what what what that which we gave you.

01:02:13 --> 01:02:15

What I'm asking what we gave you. Give

01:02:15 --> 01:02:17

from that which We gave you. Using 2

01:02:17 --> 01:02:20

terms in Arabic that are very specific. Anfil,

01:02:20 --> 01:02:22

give not expecting anything return, it disappears meaning

01:02:22 --> 01:02:24

you're not looking for it again.

01:02:24 --> 01:02:26

Razaqnakum, that which We bestowed upon you of

01:02:26 --> 01:02:28

provision. We provided you with a lot. We

01:02:28 --> 01:02:31

provided you with a'mual. We provided you with

01:02:31 --> 01:02:31

aulad.

01:02:32 --> 01:02:33

We provided you with knowledge. We provide you

01:02:33 --> 01:02:34

with time. We provide you with a lot

01:02:34 --> 01:02:36

of things. Give.

01:02:36 --> 01:02:38

Give, expect nothing in return.

01:02:42 --> 01:02:43

Before

01:02:44 --> 01:02:45

something comes.

01:02:45 --> 01:02:47

Is the subject here. That's why it has

01:02:47 --> 01:02:48

on it's

01:02:48 --> 01:02:51

So before death comes to one of you.

01:02:51 --> 01:02:52

So why did he put ahadakum, one of

01:02:52 --> 01:02:54

you? Why did he put al Maut at

01:02:54 --> 01:02:56

the end? He want to emphasize you.

01:02:58 --> 01:02:59

Before one of

01:02:59 --> 01:03:01

you comes to them, death. Death comes to

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

them. Before one of you, death comes to

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

them. That's why he's saying, saying it subhanahu

01:03:04 --> 01:03:07

wa ta'ala. Just turning the 10ths around a

01:03:07 --> 01:03:08

little bit to focus on you.

01:03:08 --> 01:03:10

You'll be sitting there

01:03:10 --> 01:03:11

completely not expect

01:03:12 --> 01:03:13

completely unexpecting.

01:03:16 --> 01:03:17

Take a moment. I This is an exercise

01:03:17 --> 01:03:18

we were taught,

01:03:21 --> 01:03:23

we're taught in Tuskegee to do this.

01:03:24 --> 01:03:26

Sit and imagine that you're going to die

01:03:26 --> 01:03:26

now.

01:03:27 --> 01:03:28

Just sit and do that.

01:03:28 --> 01:03:29

Not

01:03:31 --> 01:03:32

the Sahabi but the,

01:03:33 --> 01:03:34

the the the tabiatabi.

01:03:34 --> 01:03:36

What he used to do is he used

01:03:36 --> 01:03:36

to

01:03:37 --> 01:03:39

before electricity existed. So at night he would

01:03:39 --> 01:03:41

take his bed and bring it closer to

01:03:41 --> 01:03:44

the wall until there was only just enough

01:03:44 --> 01:03:46

for one person to lie there. And then

01:03:46 --> 01:03:47

he would go and he would lie on

01:03:47 --> 01:03:48

the on the floor

01:03:48 --> 01:03:50

between the bed and the and the wall.

01:03:50 --> 01:03:52

And he started talking to himself, You Rabbiya.

01:03:53 --> 01:03:56

You died. And he starts speaking to himself.

01:03:56 --> 01:03:57

And speaking to about death.

01:03:58 --> 01:03:59

Until

01:04:00 --> 01:04:02

he fully envisions his own death. And then

01:04:02 --> 01:04:04

he would stand up and say, You Rabbiya

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

khadbaatak

01:04:04 --> 01:04:05

Allah.

01:04:10 --> 01:04:12

Allah gave you another chance so go go

01:04:12 --> 01:04:14

and use it wisely. Go and use it

01:04:14 --> 01:04:14

wisely.

01:04:15 --> 01:04:15

Think.

01:04:16 --> 01:04:17

This is not a,

01:04:18 --> 01:04:19

an exercise that,

01:04:19 --> 01:04:21

brings upon you depression or anything. No. No.

01:04:21 --> 01:04:23

No. No. Does it make you someone who

01:04:23 --> 01:04:26

is pessimistic and dark. No. It actually brings

01:04:26 --> 01:04:28

a lot of joy and light to your

01:04:28 --> 01:04:30

life. When you sit and you envision and

01:04:30 --> 01:04:31

think about your own death and you accept

01:04:31 --> 01:04:32

it.

01:04:32 --> 01:04:34

The moment the moment after is one of

01:04:34 --> 01:04:37

the most beautiful moments you'll live. The moment

01:04:37 --> 01:04:39

after where you're like, I'm not dead and

01:04:39 --> 01:04:40

I still have a chance and I still

01:04:40 --> 01:04:42

can do something good with my life. It's

01:04:42 --> 01:04:44

just a very beautiful moment. It's very refreshing.

01:04:44 --> 01:04:46

Like, yep. It it puts it in perspective

01:04:46 --> 01:04:48

for you. Yeah. What matters and what doesn't

01:04:48 --> 01:04:49

really matter.

01:04:49 --> 01:04:51

What I what what I was thinking about

01:04:51 --> 01:04:52

was it even worth the time that I

01:04:52 --> 01:04:54

was spending thinking about it. What I was

01:04:54 --> 01:04:56

worrying about was it worth worrying about to

01:04:56 --> 01:04:59

begin with. My whole the grudges I carry

01:04:59 --> 01:05:00

and the animosities and the hatred and the

01:05:00 --> 01:05:02

and the worry, was it worth it or

01:05:02 --> 01:05:04

Alhamdulillah, I'm alive. Alhamdulillah,

01:05:05 --> 01:05:05

I'm alive.

01:05:09 --> 01:05:11

Before death comes to one of you.

01:05:12 --> 01:05:14

And after that, He will say, Rabbi, O

01:05:14 --> 01:05:14

my Lord.

01:05:19 --> 01:05:20

Means could you have not?

01:05:21 --> 01:05:22

Is the question is, would it be okay?

01:05:22 --> 01:05:24

Could you have not doing something? La wala

01:05:24 --> 01:05:27

akhartani Could you have not postponed me? Akhartah

01:05:27 --> 01:05:29

when you postpone something or push it down

01:05:29 --> 01:05:31

the in time wise,

01:05:31 --> 01:05:32

but make it later

01:05:33 --> 01:05:35

Could you have not postponed me?

01:05:36 --> 01:05:38

To a to a near date. Like just

01:05:38 --> 01:05:40

a little bit just a little bit. Aijal

01:05:40 --> 01:05:42

is an end of time. Qareeb that is

01:05:42 --> 01:05:44

close. Meaning don't take me now. Just give

01:05:44 --> 01:05:46

me a little bit more time. Just a

01:05:46 --> 01:05:47

little bit more time.

01:05:49 --> 01:05:51

And after that I will give sadaqa.

01:05:52 --> 01:05:54

I will prove my truth.

01:05:55 --> 01:05:56

I've explained this a lot. I don't want

01:05:56 --> 01:05:58

to waste your time. Sadaqa

01:05:58 --> 01:05:59

comes from

01:05:59 --> 01:06:02

truth. We call the act of charity sadaqa

01:06:02 --> 01:06:04

because it's an evidence of truth. When you

01:06:04 --> 01:06:06

give your money, it's evidence that you're truthful.

01:06:07 --> 01:06:09

But fasaddaq means I will do things that

01:06:09 --> 01:06:11

will prove my truthfulness towards what it is

01:06:11 --> 01:06:13

I claim to be correct. I say, laiyahillallah

01:06:14 --> 01:06:16

prove it. Whatever you do to prove it

01:06:16 --> 01:06:17

is

01:06:17 --> 01:06:20

fadaqa. It's how you prove your truthfulness. I'm

01:06:20 --> 01:06:22

truthful. I say, because at the beginning of

01:06:22 --> 01:06:23

the surah, remember?

01:06:23 --> 01:06:24

What are you saying?

01:06:30 --> 01:06:31

They come and say, we bear witness. You

01:06:31 --> 01:06:32

are the prophet of Allah.

01:06:35 --> 01:06:36

And Allah knows you're his prophet. He doesn't

01:06:36 --> 01:06:37

need his their testimony.

01:06:39 --> 01:06:41

When Allah bears witness that they're liars.

01:06:42 --> 01:06:44

But they built they beared with us. They

01:06:47 --> 01:06:49

said the the Shahadah of Islam, but they

01:06:49 --> 01:06:50

had nothing to prove it.

01:06:51 --> 01:06:52

They had nothing to prove it with.

01:06:53 --> 01:06:55

Prove it. Prove that you believe. You believe

01:06:55 --> 01:06:55

in.

01:06:56 --> 01:06:58

Prove it. Go ahead. It's a claim.

01:06:58 --> 01:07:00

The the truth is la ilaha illallah Muhammadu

01:07:00 --> 01:07:02

Rasool Allah. You say you don't say it,

01:07:02 --> 01:07:03

it doesn't change. It's the truth. It's the

01:07:03 --> 01:07:05

reality. It's the only truth.

01:07:05 --> 01:07:06

When you say it, you have to prove

01:07:06 --> 01:07:07

it. Prove

01:07:08 --> 01:07:09

it. And

01:07:09 --> 01:07:11

I'll prove it. I'll I'll I'll perform these

01:07:11 --> 01:07:13

that will be show my truthfulness.

01:07:14 --> 01:07:16

Whether it's giving wealth and it's giving it's

01:07:16 --> 01:07:18

giving. What's how do you prove? You give.

01:07:18 --> 01:07:20

You give from whatever it is you have.

01:07:20 --> 01:07:21

What do you have?

01:07:22 --> 01:07:23

Just go back and assess what do I

01:07:23 --> 01:07:25

have. Not everyone I say this a lot.

01:07:25 --> 01:07:27

Not everyone has wealth

01:07:27 --> 01:07:29

because I think sometimes we we we, you

01:07:29 --> 01:07:30

know, we tunnel vision on

01:07:31 --> 01:07:33

microscopically well, it's money. It's not just money.

01:07:34 --> 01:07:36

Some people have time. Some people have expertise.

01:07:36 --> 01:07:38

Some people have skill set. Some people have

01:07:39 --> 01:07:40

knowledge. Some people

01:07:41 --> 01:07:43

What you have, unfirk from what Allah gave

01:07:43 --> 01:07:46

you before one of you death comes to

01:07:46 --> 01:07:47

them. And when it comes to them they'll

01:07:47 --> 01:07:49

say, Oh my lord. Could you have not

01:07:49 --> 01:07:51

just postponed me just a small amount of

01:07:51 --> 01:07:53

time? And then if you do, I would

01:07:53 --> 01:07:55

have shown my truthfulness. I would given what

01:07:55 --> 01:07:56

I I had. And

01:07:57 --> 01:07:59

I'll be amongst those who are pious. I'll

01:07:59 --> 01:08:01

be amongst those who are correct.

01:08:04 --> 01:08:06

And Allah will never postpone

01:08:07 --> 01:08:08

a soul

01:08:14 --> 01:08:15

when its time is up.

01:08:17 --> 01:08:19

Is the end. When the end comes, Allah

01:08:19 --> 01:08:21

will never give more time. That's it. The

01:08:21 --> 01:08:22

end is there. That's the end.

01:08:24 --> 01:08:27

Maybe 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80

01:08:27 --> 01:08:28

years. I don't know how many on you're

01:08:28 --> 01:08:29

gonna live.

01:08:30 --> 01:08:31

Maybe, you know, some one of us doesn't

01:08:31 --> 01:08:33

walk out of this masjid tonight. May Allah

01:08:33 --> 01:08:35

subhanahu grant you long lives with aafi, lawma

01:08:35 --> 01:08:37

ami. You don't know. But when the time

01:08:37 --> 01:08:39

comes, the time comes. And when it comes,

01:08:39 --> 01:08:42

that's it. There's no second chance. This is

01:08:42 --> 01:08:44

the problem with life. There's no second chance.

01:08:45 --> 01:08:47

But every breath you take is a second

01:08:47 --> 01:08:48

chance.

01:08:48 --> 01:08:50

Every moment that you live is a second

01:08:50 --> 01:08:52

chance because you didn't it was never guaranteed

01:08:52 --> 01:08:55

for you to begin with. Something guaranteed. You

01:08:55 --> 01:08:56

don't have to worry about

01:08:57 --> 01:08:59

something not guaranteed that you end up taking.

01:09:00 --> 01:09:01

That's the next that's the second chance.

01:09:02 --> 01:09:03

Right now I'm sitting here.

01:09:05 --> 01:09:06

It's 10 o'clock.

01:09:09 --> 01:09:10

The next hour

01:09:10 --> 01:09:12

is unguaranteed for me

01:09:12 --> 01:09:14

whether I live that hour or not. I

01:09:14 --> 01:09:16

don't know. Maybe I live it. Maybe I

01:09:16 --> 01:09:18

don't. I hope I do. I don't know.

01:09:18 --> 01:09:20

It's not guaranteed for me. It is not

01:09:20 --> 01:09:22

guaranteed if I end up getting it,

01:09:23 --> 01:09:25

the second chance for me because no one

01:09:25 --> 01:09:26

told me that I was going to get

01:09:26 --> 01:09:28

it. Anything guaranteed, if I'm told, no. No.

01:09:28 --> 01:09:30

You're fine for the next couple of, years.

01:09:31 --> 01:09:33

You don't have to think about anything.

01:09:33 --> 01:09:35

It's what we do. We live lives where

01:09:35 --> 01:09:37

we're not thinking about what's coming next because

01:09:37 --> 01:09:39

we we think we're guaranteed life. You're not.

01:09:39 --> 01:09:40

You're not.

01:09:42 --> 01:09:43

When the time comes,

01:09:44 --> 01:09:46

Allah will not postpone a living soul.

01:09:50 --> 01:09:52

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is all is omniscient

01:09:52 --> 01:09:53

of that which you do kabeer,

01:09:54 --> 01:09:55

He's talking about what's going on the inside.

01:09:55 --> 01:09:56

SubhanAllah.

01:09:57 --> 01:09:58

At the end of it, he didn't say

01:09:58 --> 01:10:01

Aleem, the umbrella name. He didn't say Samiyan,

01:10:01 --> 01:10:03

what was said. He didn't say Basih, what

01:10:03 --> 01:10:05

was seen. He said, what is very complex.

01:10:05 --> 01:10:08

He said, Khabir, that which is hidden that

01:10:08 --> 01:10:10

no one knows but God. The intentions and

01:10:10 --> 01:10:12

the thoughts. Because Nifaq is something that we

01:10:12 --> 01:10:14

cannot. I can't call someone munafiq. I can't

01:10:14 --> 01:10:16

I can't I can't. No one can. It's

01:10:16 --> 01:10:18

something that exists on the inside. It's a

01:10:18 --> 01:10:19

problem that only Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala knows.

01:10:19 --> 01:10:21

There are signs that are in the Quran

01:10:21 --> 01:10:23

for us to avoid for ourselves but it's

01:10:23 --> 01:10:26

something only Allah knows on the inside. So

01:10:26 --> 01:10:27

at the end of this Surah, he says,

01:10:27 --> 01:10:30

and Allah knows exactly what you're doing on

01:10:30 --> 01:10:31

the inside. Kabeerumimataamaloon

01:10:32 --> 01:10:33

what's happening on the inside.

01:10:34 --> 01:10:35

So he knows those of you who are

01:10:35 --> 01:10:37

truthful and those of you who are not.

01:10:37 --> 01:10:39

Those who are mumin and those are munafiq.

01:10:39 --> 01:10:41

That's something on the inside. He knows subhanahu

01:10:41 --> 01:10:43

wa ta'ala. So do it now. Those are

01:10:43 --> 01:10:45

the two advices he gave. You want to

01:10:45 --> 01:10:46

protect yourself from lifaq? You want the vaccination

01:10:46 --> 01:10:48

of lifaq? Alright. Number 1.

01:10:49 --> 01:10:50

Do not be distracted

01:10:50 --> 01:10:52

by what he gave you from what he

01:10:52 --> 01:10:54

created you. Don't be distracted by what he

01:10:54 --> 01:10:56

gave you from what he created you for.

01:10:56 --> 01:10:58

Number 2. Give from that which you have.

01:10:58 --> 01:11:00

Whatever he gave you, give from it. Give

01:11:00 --> 01:11:02

before the moment comes where you wish you

01:11:02 --> 01:11:05

did and there's no way to do it.

01:11:05 --> 01:11:06

I hope that was a benefit. And this

01:11:06 --> 01:11:07

would like, it concludes with.
