Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa
salatu salam ala Sayed Lumbee I will do Celine Mohamed Anwar Ali
was a big marine
brothers and sisters, a Salaam Alaykum Warahmatullahi
Wabarakatuh.
In this session, I would like to spend some time
reflecting on AYATUL kursi which is the 25th verse from Surah Al
Baqarah Chapter Two of the holy book.
This was has been considered the greatest verse in the holy book
and it is required reading for us
every day before we retire to bed
and every time we perform the salah, after further salah.
If we read this idea,
we have been guaranteed paradise
this idea is called the greatest.
I have the holy book
we we ask why.
The reason is that
our of the Quran revolves around three themes.
The number one theme the central theme of the Quran is a Tao heed
the Oneness of Allah subhanho wa Taala and the names and attributes
of Allah subhanho wa Taala
and
belief in the sovereignty of Allah and His lordship over the whole
creation.
That is the 1/3 of the whole of Quran and that is why
Surah two listless has been called 1/3 of the Holy Quran. Because
Surah two listeners is dealing with Tao heat, it is talks about
pure monotheism or pure belief in the Oneness of Allah subhanho wa
taala.
Either kursi,
condense
10 phrases, all of them are describing something of the nature
of allows one over kala the nature of Allah is beyond human
cognition.
Because Allah is incomparable, he is unique.
He cannot be compared with editing of His creation. So how do we know
Allah?
The only way for us to know Him is through his own self disclosure,
through the revelation, and that is what we learn
from this surah as well as from the different
verses of the holy book 1/3 of the holy book is telling us about a
loved one or whatever, how do we think about him? How do we
conceive of him?
So let us read first, this idea, and then I'm going to translate
and explain each of these 10 phrases for us.
To have that rule reverence for Allah is one of Allah, who alone
is the creator, the Lord sustainer and cherisher of the words
are the builder who ministry plan and Raja rajim Bismillahi Rahmani

Allah has spoken the truth
And the messenger of Mercy has conveyed to us. The revelations
communicated to him through jiggery salat wa salam.

His power, His sovereignty, his throne, and compasses all of the
heavens and the earth. While I Oh, hello Ma, preserving them. Where
is him not? Well, who will Ollie you love him in the exalted, the
high and the Great, the tremendous.
So let us explain each of these phrase these 10 phrases. First is
the assertion Allah there is no God beside him.
There is no one worthy of worship
and submission except Allah subhanho wa taala, who alone is
the Creator, the Sustainer and cherish of the words I'll hire he
ever living.
Meaning everything else derives their life, let's live from the
Ever Living from the source of life, who is our living and who
will never die?
The believers, Muslims had
an experience of this, the meaning of this profound phrase, when the
messenger of Allah passed away
Rasul allah sallallahu wasallam was everything for them is was
more than their father, their spiritual leader, their teacher,
their mentor, the ideal personality, they look up to
Rasulullah sallallahu for everything
after a loved one or Tada, but when the messenger of Allah passed
away, they could not accept that.
Even though some of the most intelligent persons like Obama
hottub Raleigh allawah know, he could not accept the fact that
Rasulullah Salallahu Salam is dead.
So he was ready to talk to anyone who would say Rasulullah Salallahu
Salam is dead. He thought Rasulullah Salallahu Islam has
gone to have an intimate communion with his Lord, even as Musa
alayhis salam had gone for communion with Allah Spano Tala.
So, but as for a move across the equally low No, he was a more
sober person, more wiser person. He made sure he wants chakra that
Rasulullah sallallahu wasallam has already passed away. He came out
and pushed over away. Probably a low or no. And declare monka Yeah,
Boo Boo Hamedan for it. No. Muhammadan cardbox whoever has
been worshipping Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa salam. Let
him know that Muhammad is dead. Some of Allahu alayhi wa salam
among khariar Badulla for in Namaha EULA your moot. Hoover has
been worshipping Allah subhanho wa Taala let him know that Allah is
Ever Living and he will never die. So that is Allah Allah never dies.
There is everything else. Kulu Manali have fun, everything on the
face of the earth will perish will die.
But Allah alone will live
Whatever I'll call you. The next phrase is even more deeper.
Teaching us another dimension of the divine nature. And are you God
is some subsystem, he exists by himself.
Data doesn't exist because of somebody else's existence is not
derived from anyone else, is self existing. And he's also the self
existing source of our beings, meaning everything else exists
through him.
Here is a refutation of the philosophy called concept of God.
You know, the Greek philosophers visualize God as utterly
transcendent. Their god is all holy, our perfection, so he's too
high to noble to exalted, to be involved in learning the universe,
that will be an imperfection for him. So he has let the world move
on his own,
and more contemplate his own perfection.
Islam negates this because Islam teaches us, the God that we
believe in
is the creator sustainer and change of the world. He is
involved in the creation.
Everything exists through him, everything will depends on Allah
subhanaw taala for their continued existence. So God is in charge.
God cares for his creation. Through God alone, everything
exists. lotto hallucinatory Murano, neither slumbers, nor
sleep overtakes him. This is another refutation, another false
idea that crept into some of the scriptures that conceived of God.
You know, after creating the wall for six days, God became exhausted
and tired and to crust.
So here Allah subhanho wa Taala in this phrase, as well as the phrase
that comes before the last of the two phrases, what I owe to him
Hello Ma, meaning God is never exhausted. Go doesn't need rest.
Gore is far about all of these imperfect attributes we attribute
when God doesn't sleep in Hola Hola, yo, gnome. What are your
Molina Who are you know, Rasulullah sallallahu sallam said,
God doesn't sleep, it doesn't fit befit signature to sleep. So,
no mark is somehow what you have available, or that is in the
heavens and the earth belongs to him alone. Immediate today, the
science has discovered the cosmos
is in T the size of it. mind boggling there are billions of
galaxies each of the galaxy have planners. So nobody knows the
size, the image size of the cosmos and nobody knows
that nature.
How
infinity the creation of a loss one hour Tada. So Allah teaches us
all that is in the heavens and the earth belongs to him.
When the lineage following the hula, lovey dovey, who shall dare
to intercede before him without his permission. This is again
another refutation, because great religions, even though they have
the concept of oneness of God,
they conceive God has like a kin. You don't go direct to the kin,
you go through the intermediaries so that they made a comparison of
God with the kin with the created be.
God refutes this idea. Allah want us to refuse to to disbelieve
this, that God that we believe in, you can communicate directly with
him. You don't need any intermediary to speak to God
Almighty. So this is an ultimate liberation. Because if you look at
the great religious traditions, you know, because they set up
human beings as intermediaries, this great exploitation. Millions
of people have been duped by this kind of superstitious beliefs, and
they have been exploited. And Islam curse at the root of all
these misconceptions about word that no one can intercede without
God's permission, and there is no need for us to go through
intermediaries. We can approach God
directly, Yala, Booma by ID him mama Khalifa home. He knows
everything out there that exists that will exists in the past,
present and future. He knows everything. Nothing happens in
this universe without God's knowledge and will.
You know, imagine this, the profound meaning of this, when we
are speaking, how many trillions of life forms are coming alive,
bursting forth to life, and how many are dying
and God knows there is not a single lifars Without going doing
it with our last one Rotella doing it.
And there is a beautiful
story of the dialogue between huller and Musa he was salam,
hello and Musar Islam was standing on the shore of the ocean.
And they saw a small board packing water
Hello, Ali Salam told Musa alayhis salam, now Musa, the knowledge you
have been given the knowledge I have been given and the knowledge
of all of the Creation
put together.
If you compare this knowledge that we Mater's have with the knowledge
of God Almighty, that is what this the size of the drop of water this
board has pack for the ocean,
as compared to the ocean, of course, even the oceans or of the
oceans together, will not exist. If they were in and all of the
trees were pen. And we were to write down the wisdom of God
Almighty. The wisdom of God Almighty will not be exhausted.
The pen will not be able to write everything in the ocean will re up
what are you hate? Would I be shaking a mineral be healed every
Basha.
Course knowledge is infinite incomparable, but the knowledge of
human beings, the knowledge of scientists, social scientists,
scientists, philosophers, theologians.
All of this knowledge of put together is nothing. All of this
is a gift, pure gift from Allah subhanho wa taala, who alone is
arguing
that Muslims scientists have the wisdom to recognize the
limitations of human knowledge. So no matter what stage when they're
made, they will always follow it up with a common, what Allahu Alem
cold prospects best.
This is what we know, given the limited knowledge you have been
given.
And there may be something more for us to learn, which we'll learn
later, which we've discovered later. Actually, this is how the
science also progresses. Because every time science discovers
something, it discovers that there are a lot more questions to be
answered. And then that push envelope is pushed further.
What's the accuracy you will somehow what you will learn is
sovereignty pervades and compasses all of the creation.
What I owe to him for the whole ma God's sovereignty got lordship for
sustaining the universe and the cosmos, everything in between. It
doesn't really him not. It doesn't exhaust him. It doesn't tire him
because he doesn't need rest. He's all powerful.
Whoa, Raleigh, you rollin. He's all Hi.
All local, all exalted. Ali, the great tremendous, brothers and
sisters. It behooves us in this blessed month of Ramadan,
to strengthen our relationship with the Quran. And the way to
strengthen our relationship with the Quran is to read it to reflect
upon the message. And let the message soak,
imbue our soul transformer soul with the message. So reading
AYATUL kursi, we should fill our heart with reverence for our last
one our Tala and all of these attributes that God has described,
to teach us something of His divine nature, we should use them.
Use them to decipher the science of God's glory. As we read the
Scripture, as we read the book of nature outside because we have
been given two books. One is the book of Revelation and
Another revelation is that nature with the divine signs are
manifested. But for that we need to open our heart or eyes, our
ears or mind to reflect and by reading the two scriptures
together, we will be try seeking Inshallah, we will be able to see
something of the depth of the Divine book. I would urge you to
read it to see every single day as you wake up, read AYATUL kursi
before you will retire Tibet rewriter kursi rewriter could see
the corners of your house, if you want protection from Allah
subhanho wa taala. Read AYATUL kursi after every farla Salah
because the messenger of Mercy said if you read it, you could see
after every further Salah it's a guarantee for Paradise. So I will
urge you to do that rewriter cracy for all your children and blow on
them and blown yourself for protection from the last one
Rotella because Allah alone is our powerful, either healer and cure.
Surely, we need to take go to doctors and receive treatments but
they can only work with the will of Allah subhanho wa Taala so let
us join the combine the three kinds of treatment according to
Cody hada harder was tougher Allah you will have come was Salam
alaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
