00:00:26 --> 00:00:28
			Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim, Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim, Bismillahir Rahmanir
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			Rahim, Alhamdulillah As Salaamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:40
			Barakatuhu, InshaAllah we are
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:42
			going to start Surat Al-Baqarah.
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:48
			Surat Al-Baqarah is revealed in which era,
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:48
			who knows?
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:51
			Is it Makki or Madani?
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:53
			How do you know?
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:59
			Okay, so that's why it's Madani?
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:19
			That's Surat Yusuf, excellent, that's Surat Yusuf, that's
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:20
			Surat Yusuf, that's Surat Al-Baqarah.
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:25
			Excellent, so it's a Madani surah, most of
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:29
			the surahs that have a lot of legislation,
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			don't do this, don't do that, this is
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:36
			how you eat, stay away from this, eat
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:40
			this, walk like this, talk like this, behave
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			like this, sleep like this, get married in
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:44
			this way, divorce in this, all of those
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:48
			type of surahs generally are considered Madani surahs
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:51
			because they have legislation and Madinah was the
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:54
			time of legislation for Prophet ﷺ.
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:59
			Now coming to Surat Al-Baqarah, Surat Al
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:02
			-Baqarah has some introductions that we're going to
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			give today, if Allah gives us Tawfiq we'll
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:06
			probably go through some of those introductions and
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:08
			then if we're able to start the surah
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:10
			we'll start, otherwise it is important that we
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:13
			start with a basic introduction for everyone InshaAllah.
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:18
			So, firstly, how many names does Surat Al
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:18
			-Baqarah have?
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:21
			Does anybody know any other names of Surat
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:21
			Al-Baqarah?
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:29
			Anybody knows any Surat Al-Baqarah different names?
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:33
			Why is it called Baqarah firstly?
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:41
			Regarding the cow, so there's a story of
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:44
			the cow, which nation was the story about?
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:49
			Musa Alayhi Salaam or Banu Isra'il, good.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:53
			The second is the surah is also called,
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:59
			Prophet ﷺ said, Iqra'u Al-Zahra Wain,
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:04
			read Zahra Wain, the two lights, okay?
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:09
			The surah is also called Surat Al-Zahra,
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:14
			Al-Zahra, Alif, Zaha, Wa, Hamd.
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:18
			Why, what is Zahra?
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:25
			It embodies in it illumination, your path to
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:29
			guidance is illuminated and embodies in it Hidayah,
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:34
			guidance and it has Azeem Muajrin, it has
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:35
			a lot of reward.
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:45
			The next surah is called the Sinam, Surat
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:49
			Sinam Al-Qur'an, what's a Sinam?
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:52
			The hump of a camel, okay?
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:56
			And it's called Sinam Al-Qur'an because
		
00:03:56 --> 00:04:01
			it is the biggest surah of the Qur
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:04
			'an, it's the most prominent in size, okay?
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:06
			So it's also called Sinam Al-Qur'an
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			because it's the longest surah, okay?
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:16
			The next is Surat Al-Fustat Al-Qur
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:23
			'an, okay, Fustat Al-Qur'an, what's Fustat?
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:27
			Something that covers you, shrouds you, okay?
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:32
			So, Surat Fustat Al-Qur'an alludes to
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:41
			that, Fustat is like a Fustan, what do
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:41
			they call it?
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:44
			Dress, like you know, I don't know the
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:49
			woman dressed, it's like a, not a bridal
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:53
			gown but it's like a very fancy evening
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:53
			wear gown.
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:55
			Why is that?
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:59
			Because number one, it is extremely beautiful in
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:00
			its eloquence, the surah.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:04
			Number two, it shrouds all of that which
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:08
			is important for the ummah to understand, and
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:09
			they must know.
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:11
			As a matter of fact, during the time
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:15
			of Imam Malik radiallahu anhu, Imam Malik rahimahullah,
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:21
			during his time it was customary that whenever
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:24
			somebody would finish the understanding, i.e. they
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:28
			would have finished memorizing, understanding the rules of
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:30
			it, of Surat Al-Baqarah, and now they
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:33
			have become, they've gone through the entire Surat
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:37
			Al-Baqarah, they would slaughter a cow, and
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:40
			they would do the waleema, i.e. they
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:44
			would call up everybody in the neighborhood and
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:48
			they would do a big party, inshaAllah, after
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:48
			slaughtering a cow.
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:51
			So we will go to Dr. Asim, when
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:54
			we finish Surat Al-Baqarah, he will arrange
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:56
			for us a cow, and we'll also do
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:59
			that inshaAllah, we'll follow this Imam Malik, and
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:01
			many scholars that came after also, we'll also
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:02
			follow Imam Malik.
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:06
			This was something out of this greatness that
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:07
			we have now accomplished.
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:09
			The Salaf as-Saleheen, they used to say
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:13
			that man haftuha feena Surat Al-Baqarah jadda
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:17
			feena, whosoever memorizes Surat Al-Baqarah amongst them,
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:20
			for verily he has become, i.e. they
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:23
			would give him a level of a grandfather,
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:25
			i.e. he would be honored in the
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:27
			majlis, he would be considered like a leader
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:28
			of the community.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:32
			Now like a lot of leaders today, they
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:35
			can't even recite Surat Al-Fatiha, sadly we're
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:38
			in a time where Surat Al-Fatiha, the
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:41
			most essential surah for a Muslim, many of
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:44
			the leaders in every sector of the community,
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:48
			from communities to different spaces, they can't even
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:49
			recite Surat Al-Fatiha.
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:50
			So sad.
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:53
			Today I was speaking to somebody who is
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:55
			a very, he's retired and he has been
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:58
			a professor for medicine for 36 years, and
		
00:06:58 --> 00:06:59
			I was speaking to him, having a conversation
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:02
			with him, and he said, this is the
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:04
			summary of my 37 years of experience in
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:07
			da'wah, obviously a professor and he was
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:08
			very active in da'wah.
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:12
			And he said to me that, as an
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:18
			Ummah, we have neglected the Qur'an, 37
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:20
			years, he said I retired now, I'm 78,
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:23
			but Shaykh I will tell you my summary,
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:25
			we as an Ummah don't have a connection
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:26
			with the Book of Allah.
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:30
			It's so sad, he says, and it is
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:32
			sad for us for example, on Wednesday night,
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:36
			Wednesday night, the church that is up the
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:39
			road, Stone Creek Church, they have 400 cars
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:40
			that show up for Bible studies.
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:45
			And on Wednesday night for Surat Al-Kahf,
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:46
			you hardly get 40-50 people.
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:49
			Why is that?
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:51
			Because Qur'an is not important for us.
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:55
			And when there are serious studies of the
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:56
			Qur'an, we're even not more interested.
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:59
			But if it's like biryani, and like a
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:01
			little bit of story, then everybody wants to
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:02
			come.
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:04
			So may Allah give us hidayah inshaAllah, and
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:05
			give us two.
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:07
			So these are the different names of Surat
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:09
			Al-Baqarah.
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:13
			Few of the other introductions that are necessary
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:14
			for us to know about Surat Al-Baqarah.
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:21
			Number one, it has, according to the Mus
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:23
			'haf, it's the second surah, but according to
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:26
			the revelation, it is surah number 87.
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:30
			According to the revelation, it was the 87th
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:32
			surah that was revealed to Prophet ﷺ, and
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:36
			it was revealed in Madinah, and it has
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:40
			286 ayahs.
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			What is the ultimate maqsad?
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:47
			Every surah has a maqsad.
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:48
			What's a maqsad?
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:52
			The purpose of why Allah ﷻ revealed the
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:52
			surah.
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:58
			The maqsad is i'dadul ummah, to prepare the
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:06
			ummah of Muhammad ﷺ bi imaratil ard, to
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:11
			establish civilization in the earth, i.e. we
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:15
			become the forbearers of leading civilization in this
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:18
			earth, wa qiyam bi deenillah, and it cannot
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:20
			be done except on the deen of Allah
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:24
			ﷻ, wa bayan aqsa min nas, and when
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:26
			we are going to go and interact with
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:32
			humanity outside, it gives us the category of
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:34
			people that are going to deal with aqsa
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:36
			min nas, they're going to be munafiqeen, they're
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:38
			going to be hypocrites, they're going to be
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:41
			banu Israel, they're going to be Christians, they're
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:43
			going to be kuffar, so it categorizes for
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:47
			us all of those categories, so as a
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:50
			muslih, as somebody who is a reformist, who
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:53
			wants to better the society, you must understand
		
00:09:53 --> 00:09:54
			these categories of people.
		
00:09:58 --> 00:10:02
			And in it, the essence of iman, husul
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:05
			of iman, i.e. everything a person needs
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:08
			to know about their iman, all of that
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:10
			is mentioned in this surah.
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:12
			You want to say one surah that you
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:15
			need to learn for your aqeedah, surah al
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:17
			-Baqarah has every ayah and every aspect of
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:18
			aqeedah covered.
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:21
			And last one is wa kulliyat ash-shari
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:24
			'ah, and most of the ahkaam of shari
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:27
			'ah for your ibadah, you will also get
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:28
			it in this surah.
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:31
			Majority of the ahkaam for you to live,
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:34
			and that is why surah al-Baqarah is
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:36
			considered one of those surahs that as a
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:40
			community, we should have year-long courses where
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:42
			people go through the entire surah.
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:46
			Obviously, Umar radiallahu anhu, he spent how many
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:46
			years?
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:47
			Ten years.
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:50
			And Abdullah ibn Umar spent eight years, his
		
00:10:50 --> 00:10:52
			son, ten years.
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:54
			For him, what?
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:56
			And this is not like ten years, if
		
00:10:56 --> 00:10:59
			we were to study the way Umar radiallahu
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:02
			anhu studied surah al-Baqarah, it would probably
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:03
			take us a hundred years.
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:06
			It was Umar radiallahu anhu that took him
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:07
			ten years.
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:09
			If we went on the level of Umar
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:12
			radiallahu anhu to follow every ayah to understand,
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:13
			we'll be sitting here, I don't know, maybe
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:15
			a hundred years before we get there.
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:19
			So, slow is always better, especially when it
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:21
			comes to surah al-Baqarah.
		
00:11:24 --> 00:11:28
			Now this surah, why is it appropriate to
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:30
			come right after surah al-Fatihah, what do
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:30
			you guys think?
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:55
			What were the three categories of people who
		
00:11:55 --> 00:11:58
			were told in the surah, surah al-Fatihah?
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:02
			So in surah al-Fatihah we were told,
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:06
			an'amta alayhim, ghayril maghdoobi alayhim, walad dhalmeen.
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:07
			Three categories.
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:08
			Okay?
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:11
			The surah comes right after to elaborate on
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:12
			those three categories for you.
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:15
			First five verses, an'amta alayhim.
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:19
			The next two verses, or the next few
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:24
			verses, entire detail of kuffar, munafiqeen, all of
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:27
			this, yahood, nasara, all of that, is going
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:30
			to come and in detail Allah Subh'anaHu
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:31
			Wa Ta-A'la is going to tell
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:32
			us who are these an'amta alayhim, who
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:34
			are these ghayril maghdoobi alayhim, who are the
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:37
			walad dhalmeen, how not to be like walad
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:39
			dhalmeen, how not to be like ghayril maghdoobi
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:41
			alayhim, and how to be like an'amta
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:42
			alayhim.
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:44
			That is what is going to come in
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:45
			this surah.
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:52
			Now, every surah has a link, and as
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:54
			we get to the end of the surah
		
00:12:54 --> 00:12:56
			we'll probably understand the link of the beginning
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:57
			of the surah and the ending of the
		
00:12:57 --> 00:12:58
			surah.
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:00
			May Allah give us the tawfiq to go
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:03
			through the entire surah in our lifetime bi
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:04
			'idh minnahi ta'ala.
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:04
			Okay?
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:08
			With that, there are certain ahadith that talk
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:13
			about the virtues of surah al-Baqarah.
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:16
			One of them is that a house in
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:19
			which surah al-Baqarah is recited, that shaytan
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:22
			cannot establish their foothold in that house.
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:26
			Now do you have to recite it yourself?
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:29
			There is a khilaf, if you even play
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:31
			it, I have found people that have benefited
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:33
			by just playing surah al-Baqarah.
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:36
			We generally have a habit, if we're playing
		
00:13:36 --> 00:13:39
			for like 10 days or 15 days, hey
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:42
			Alexa, surah al-Baqarah on loop.
		
00:13:43 --> 00:13:43
			Okay?
		
00:13:43 --> 00:13:45
			Surah al-Baqarah, we're just playing and playing
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:47
			and playing and playing, and usually because if
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:50
			your houses are empty, they become a place
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:52
			for shayateen to come and go.
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:54
			Surah al-Baqarah is playing on all of
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:57
			your Alexa's outside, and the Qur'an dispels
		
00:13:57 --> 00:13:59
			all of those shayateen and all of those
		
00:13:59 --> 00:13:59
			evil spirits.
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:07
			The second is, Prophet ﷺ said that this
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:15
			surah, karkuha hasra, anybody that disowns this surah,
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:18
			disregards the value of this surah, then that
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:20
			is going to be remorseful to that person
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:21
			in life.
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:27
			But if you hold on to it and
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:30
			you try to understand it, your life is
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:32
			going to be filled with barakah.
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:38
			And only, Prophet ﷺ said, li-batala, i
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:41
			.e. people who are like heroic and that
		
00:14:41 --> 00:14:46
			give courage, only the courageous people have the
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:48
			ability to actually go to this entire surah.
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:51
			May Allah make us do justice, insha'Allah.
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:54
			We start the surah.
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:57
			Again, we're going to do the fourth part,
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:58
			which is the sadaq.
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:02
			I will recite the part, we'll do the
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:05
			tajweed together first, then we'll go to the
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:07
			translation, and then we'll go to the tafseer,
		
00:15:07 --> 00:15:08
			insha'Allah.
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:15
			A'udhu Billahi Minash Shaitanir Rajeem.
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:28
			Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem.
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:34
			Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem.
		
00:15:35 --> 00:15:40
			Alif Laam
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:45
			Meem.
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:52
			Alif Laam Meem.
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:55
			There's a huna there.
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:04
			Alif Laam Meem.
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:11
			Alif Laam Meem.
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:15
			Not the huna in terms of like an,
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:19
			it's like you're pronouncing that nasal sound of
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:20
			the meem connection, okay?
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:22
			Not the full huna, the way we have
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:23
			it.
		
00:48:36 --> 00:48:41
			The next point is every single faculty of
		
00:48:41 --> 00:48:43
			our acquisition, Allah Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A
		
00:48:43 --> 00:48:44
			'la has placed a cap on it.
		
00:48:47 --> 00:48:47
			Okay?
		
00:48:47 --> 00:48:49
			Your eyes can only see thus far.
		
00:48:50 --> 00:48:52
			Your ears can only hear so much.
		
00:48:54 --> 00:48:57
			Which animal has a more stronger sense of
		
00:48:57 --> 00:48:58
			smell?
		
00:48:58 --> 00:48:59
			A dog or a deer?
		
00:49:04 --> 00:49:05
			Dog or a deer?
		
00:49:06 --> 00:49:07
			Dogs?
		
00:49:08 --> 00:49:08
			Dogs?
		
00:49:08 --> 00:49:08
			Yes.
		
00:49:09 --> 00:49:09
			Deer.
		
00:49:13 --> 00:49:14
			A deer.
		
00:49:15 --> 00:49:19
			A deer's sense of smell, a dog, I
		
00:49:19 --> 00:49:21
			mean, there's a measure that you can measure
		
00:49:21 --> 00:49:24
			the sense of, like, how strong.
		
00:49:25 --> 00:49:27
			So human beings are, like, at, like, I
		
00:49:27 --> 00:49:29
			think, like, we're, like, at 13,000.
		
00:49:30 --> 00:49:32
			I forgot the metric that is there to
		
00:49:32 --> 00:49:32
			smell.
		
00:49:33 --> 00:49:36
			Dogs are at 200,000.
		
00:49:37 --> 00:49:41
			Deers are at 3 million of that metric.
		
00:49:42 --> 00:49:45
			Deers can smell a human being that had
		
00:49:45 --> 00:49:50
			crossed that trail up to two days, up
		
00:49:50 --> 00:49:51
			to two days.
		
00:49:51 --> 00:49:53
			They're able to walk in the trail and
		
00:49:53 --> 00:49:53
			they'll jump.
		
00:49:54 --> 00:49:56
			Like, there was a human being that was
		
00:49:56 --> 00:49:56
			there.
		
00:49:57 --> 00:49:57
			Okay?
		
00:49:58 --> 00:50:00
			So every faculty of ours has a limit.
		
00:50:02 --> 00:50:06
			Our hearing, a polar bear can smell a
		
00:50:06 --> 00:50:09
			prey from two miles in the snow.
		
00:50:11 --> 00:50:13
			It knows that there's a seal sitting on,
		
00:50:15 --> 00:50:19
			you know, it's drifting on a snow, you
		
00:50:19 --> 00:50:21
			know, a broken snow piece and it knows
		
00:50:21 --> 00:50:22
			that it's there and it can head in
		
00:50:22 --> 00:50:22
			that direction.
		
00:50:23 --> 00:50:23
			Okay?
		
00:50:23 --> 00:50:27
			So every faculty of ours has, our hearing
		
00:50:27 --> 00:50:28
			has a limitation.
		
00:50:29 --> 00:50:29
			How do we know that?
		
00:50:29 --> 00:50:30
			Right?
		
00:50:30 --> 00:50:32
			My physics teacher had this tool.
		
00:50:33 --> 00:50:34
			He cranked up the sound.
		
00:50:34 --> 00:50:37
			So he went like, and he kept cranking
		
00:50:37 --> 00:50:40
			up the sound until one point, your ears
		
00:50:40 --> 00:50:41
			stop hearing.
		
00:50:43 --> 00:50:45
			That doesn't mean that there is no sound.
		
00:50:45 --> 00:50:47
			We had the microphone and the microphone was
		
00:50:47 --> 00:50:48
			picking up the sound.
		
00:50:48 --> 00:50:50
			You could see that the sound is there.
		
00:50:51 --> 00:50:53
			But literally, you're sitting there and your ears
		
00:50:53 --> 00:50:56
			don't hear the sound because it's outside of
		
00:50:56 --> 00:50:58
			the frequency range of your hearing.
		
00:51:01 --> 00:51:04
			After that frequency, you're not able to hear.
		
00:51:06 --> 00:51:08
			No, it won't because it's like Allah has
		
00:51:08 --> 00:51:09
			capped it.
		
00:51:09 --> 00:51:11
			So your eardrums won't even vibrate to that
		
00:51:11 --> 00:51:11
			frequency.
		
00:51:14 --> 00:51:15
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:51:18 --> 00:51:29
			Yet elephants can hear subsonic waves and
		
00:51:29 --> 00:51:33
			they can communicate with one another for miles
		
00:51:33 --> 00:51:34
			and miles apart.
		
00:51:34 --> 00:51:37
			And we can't even hear those sounds.
		
00:51:40 --> 00:51:43
			So whales, right?
		
00:51:44 --> 00:51:46
			But we can still hear their sounds.
		
00:51:46 --> 00:51:49
			So the point being, every faculty of acquisition
		
00:51:49 --> 00:51:49
			has a limit.
		
00:51:50 --> 00:51:52
			So Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala starts off
		
00:51:52 --> 00:51:55
			the Surah Al-Baqarah and tells you that
		
00:51:55 --> 00:51:57
			your brain is also a faculty of acquisition
		
00:51:57 --> 00:51:59
			and that has a limit.
		
00:51:59 --> 00:52:01
			There are going to be portions in the
		
00:52:01 --> 00:52:03
			Qur'an you will understand and there's going
		
00:52:03 --> 00:52:05
			to be portions you're going to have to
		
00:52:05 --> 00:52:06
			submit to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
		
00:52:08 --> 00:52:10
			So it starts off by humbling you.
		
00:52:11 --> 00:52:14
			That this same Alif-Lam-Mim, in this
		
00:52:14 --> 00:52:16
			Surah you will not understand but in Alam
		
00:52:16 --> 00:52:19
			Tara Kaifa you will understand the meaning of
		
00:52:19 --> 00:52:19
			Alif-Lam-Mim.
		
00:52:21 --> 00:52:24
			And amongst that, there are 19 other opinions
		
00:52:24 --> 00:52:25
			about what this means.
		
00:52:26 --> 00:52:27
			And we're not going to go into the
		
00:52:27 --> 00:52:27
			meaning of that.
		
00:52:27 --> 00:52:31
			ذالك الكتاب ذات كتاب i.e. referring to
		
00:52:31 --> 00:52:33
			the great status of the Qur'an or
		
00:52:33 --> 00:52:35
			referring to Lawh Al-Mahfuz.
		
00:52:35 --> 00:52:38
			الكتاب ذا بك لا ريب فيه There is
		
00:52:38 --> 00:52:39
			no doubt in it.
		
00:52:41 --> 00:52:46
			Now, to address the concerns of the Orientalists
		
00:52:46 --> 00:52:49
			that this Qur'an has discrepancies in it
		
00:52:49 --> 00:52:51
			because Qur'an was not in the form
		
00:52:51 --> 00:52:53
			of Kitab at the time of Prophet ﷺ,
		
00:52:54 --> 00:52:56
			then why mention ذالك الكتاب?
		
00:52:56 --> 00:52:57
			The answer for that is it is referring
		
00:52:57 --> 00:53:00
			to the book that is in that Lawh
		
00:53:00 --> 00:53:02
			Al-Mahfuz and we know that it is
		
00:53:02 --> 00:53:04
			in a form of a book.
		
00:53:05 --> 00:53:06
			Referring to that.
		
00:53:06 --> 00:53:08
			And the Mu'ajiza of the Qur'an
		
00:53:08 --> 00:53:10
			is that during the life of Rasulullah ﷺ
		
00:53:10 --> 00:53:12
			it was not into the form of a
		
00:53:12 --> 00:53:14
			Kitab but at the time of Abu Bakr
		
00:53:14 --> 00:53:17
			it got into a Mus'haf and at
		
00:53:17 --> 00:53:19
			the time of Uthman seven copies were made
		
00:53:19 --> 00:53:21
			and we have till this day those copies.
		
00:53:22 --> 00:53:23
			Those copies.
		
00:53:24 --> 00:53:27
			ذالك الكتاب لا ريب فيه There is no
		
00:53:27 --> 00:53:28
			doubt in it.
		
00:53:28 --> 00:53:30
			This can be read multiple ways.
		
00:53:30 --> 00:53:32
			You can stop at لا ريب and the
		
00:53:32 --> 00:53:34
			meaning changes or you can stop at فيه
		
00:53:34 --> 00:53:35
			and the meaning changes.
		
00:53:36 --> 00:53:39
			So the meaning is ذالك الكتاب لا ريب
		
00:53:39 --> 00:53:42
			This book has no doubt.
		
00:53:43 --> 00:53:47
			فيه هدى للمتقين In it is guidance for
		
00:53:47 --> 00:53:48
			متقين.
		
00:53:48 --> 00:53:49
			That's one meaning.
		
00:53:49 --> 00:53:52
			The other meaning is ذالك الكتاب لا ريب
		
00:53:52 --> 00:53:54
			فيه This is a book.
		
00:53:54 --> 00:53:56
			There is no doubt in it.
		
00:53:57 --> 00:53:58
			Then what is in it?
		
00:53:58 --> 00:54:02
			هدى للمتقين There is guidance for the متقين.
		
00:54:02 --> 00:54:04
			There is guidance for the متقين.
		
00:54:04 --> 00:54:06
			Remember last time we talked about guidance.
		
00:54:06 --> 00:54:07
			Guidance is of two types.
		
00:54:08 --> 00:54:10
			Guidance of ilm and guidance of amal.
		
00:54:12 --> 00:54:15
			هداية الرشاد وهداية التوفيق That's the word we
		
00:54:15 --> 00:54:16
			used.
		
00:54:16 --> 00:54:18
			i.e. Allah can give a person guidance
		
00:54:18 --> 00:54:19
			of ilm.
		
00:54:20 --> 00:54:22
			هداية is of ilm and هداية of amal.
		
00:54:23 --> 00:54:24
			هداية of ilm is what?
		
00:54:25 --> 00:54:26
			Allah gives that to every…
		
00:54:26 --> 00:54:28
			a baby knows how to suckle.
		
00:54:29 --> 00:54:31
			A non-Muslim baby and a Muslim baby
		
00:54:31 --> 00:54:32
			and a Christian baby and a Hindu baby,
		
00:54:32 --> 00:54:33
			every baby knows how to do that.
		
00:54:33 --> 00:54:34
			That's knowledge.
		
00:54:35 --> 00:54:40
			That هداية is عام How to eat, how
		
00:54:40 --> 00:54:43
			to satiate your thirst, how to know when
		
00:54:43 --> 00:54:45
			you're in pain, how to communicate that pain.
		
00:54:46 --> 00:54:47
			All of that, standard.
		
00:54:48 --> 00:54:53
			هداية of عمل, this is special for believers.
		
00:54:54 --> 00:54:57
			Or sometimes Allah will guide other people that
		
00:54:57 --> 00:55:01
			are not believers into هداية of توفيق, i
		
00:55:01 --> 00:55:02
			.e. towards Islam.
		
00:55:03 --> 00:55:05
			And that is, wallahi this is in the
		
00:55:05 --> 00:55:06
			hands of Allah ﷻ.
		
00:55:06 --> 00:55:09
			You and I, we have very little to
		
00:55:09 --> 00:55:11
			do with guiding someone.
		
00:55:12 --> 00:55:14
			We may want to but we don't.
		
00:55:14 --> 00:55:14
			Okay?
		
00:55:15 --> 00:55:17
			هُدَلِّ الْمُتَّقِين This is guidance.
		
00:55:17 --> 00:55:18
			Which type of guidance over here?
		
00:55:19 --> 00:55:22
			The guidance of توفيق or عمل.
		
00:55:23 --> 00:55:25
			i.e. there is guidance in this, guidance
		
00:55:25 --> 00:55:28
			to do عمل but that guidance is for
		
00:55:28 --> 00:55:29
			متقين.
		
00:55:29 --> 00:55:32
			i.e. if you desire and if we
		
00:55:32 --> 00:55:34
			work hard to get into the ranks of
		
00:55:34 --> 00:55:37
			the متقين then acting upon this Qur'an
		
00:55:37 --> 00:55:39
			becomes a lot more easier for us.
		
00:55:40 --> 00:55:42
			الَّذِينَ Who are these متقين?
		
00:55:42 --> 00:55:44
			What is the definition of these متقين?
		
00:55:44 --> 00:55:44
			The first thing.
		
00:55:45 --> 00:55:52
			الَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْغَيِّبِ The first condition that qualifies
		
00:55:52 --> 00:55:55
			us to be a متقين is we must
		
00:55:55 --> 00:55:56
			believe in the unseen.
		
00:55:56 --> 00:56:01
			We must believe in the unseen.
		
00:56:02 --> 00:56:05
			Because our belief in the unseen, the first
		
00:56:05 --> 00:56:07
			element is Allah Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A
		
00:56:07 --> 00:56:07
			'la.
		
00:56:08 --> 00:56:10
			غَيِّب He is غَيِّب, right?
		
00:56:11 --> 00:56:13
			He is موجود, you can see all of
		
00:56:13 --> 00:56:17
			His creation around you but He is غَيِّب.
		
00:56:19 --> 00:56:20
			Physically you can't see Him.
		
00:56:22 --> 00:56:22
			Okay?
		
00:56:22 --> 00:56:27
			So the first condition is that believers, متقين,
		
00:56:27 --> 00:56:31
			have a quality that they have يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْغَيِّبِ
		
00:56:31 --> 00:56:33
			They have iman in the ghayb.
		
00:56:34 --> 00:56:36
			If Allah is there, al-Mala'ika is
		
00:56:36 --> 00:56:38
			there, and what are the six things we
		
00:56:38 --> 00:56:40
			have to believe in as part of our
		
00:56:40 --> 00:56:40
			iman?
		
00:56:43 --> 00:56:46
			Allah, wal-Mala'ikatihi, mala'ika, the angels,
		
00:56:46 --> 00:56:47
			wa-kutubihi, the books.
		
00:56:47 --> 00:56:49
			Did you see Injil being revealed?
		
00:56:50 --> 00:56:51
			Did you see Tawrah being revealed?
		
00:56:51 --> 00:56:52
			We believe in it.
		
00:56:53 --> 00:56:53
			Okay?
		
00:56:53 --> 00:56:55
			Mala'ika, did we see the angels?
		
00:56:55 --> 00:56:56
			We didn't, but we believe in it.
		
00:56:57 --> 00:56:59
			Mala'ikatihi, wa-kutubihi, wa-rusulihi, messengers.
		
00:56:59 --> 00:57:01
			Did we see any of the messengers?
		
00:57:01 --> 00:57:01
			No.
		
00:57:02 --> 00:57:04
			Twenty-five messengers mentioned in the Qur'an,
		
00:57:04 --> 00:57:05
			did we meet any of them?
		
00:57:05 --> 00:57:06
			No, we did not.
		
00:57:07 --> 00:57:07
			We believe in them.
		
00:57:07 --> 00:57:08
			Ghayb.
		
00:57:08 --> 00:57:08
			Okay?
		
00:57:09 --> 00:57:09
			What else?
		
00:57:10 --> 00:57:13
			Wa-rusulihi, wal-Qadri, khayrihi, wa-sharrihi min
		
00:57:13 --> 00:57:14
			Allah.
		
00:57:15 --> 00:57:16
			That qadr, Allah has a decree.
		
00:57:17 --> 00:57:20
			Our iman is good or bad, it comes
		
00:57:20 --> 00:57:21
			from qadr, it is a decree of Allah
		
00:57:21 --> 00:57:22
			Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A'la.
		
00:57:22 --> 00:57:27
			And wal-Ba'athi, ba'dal mawt, and the
		
00:57:27 --> 00:57:29
			resurrection after the death, all of these are
		
00:57:29 --> 00:57:29
			ghaybiyat.
		
00:57:31 --> 00:57:33
			Our iman is predicated on ghaybiyat.
		
00:57:34 --> 00:57:37
			Where we have an issue with the next
		
00:57:37 --> 00:57:40
			generation or the current generation is we don't
		
00:57:40 --> 00:57:42
			talk enough about iman.
		
00:57:43 --> 00:57:44
			We don't talk about these six pillars.
		
00:57:44 --> 00:57:46
			We always say five pillars of Islam.
		
00:57:47 --> 00:57:50
			There is a prerequisite to the five pillars
		
00:57:50 --> 00:57:51
			of Islam which is the six pillars of
		
00:57:51 --> 00:57:51
			iman.
		
00:57:52 --> 00:57:54
			If the person doesn't have the six pillars
		
00:57:54 --> 00:57:56
			of iman, the five pillars of Islam are
		
00:57:56 --> 00:57:58
			going to be of no value to the
		
00:57:58 --> 00:57:59
			person.
		
00:58:00 --> 00:58:03
			And when parents talk about my son is
		
00:58:03 --> 00:58:05
			or my daughter is not following the five
		
00:58:05 --> 00:58:07
			pillars of Islam, the issue is in the
		
00:58:07 --> 00:58:09
			six pillars of iman.
		
00:58:10 --> 00:58:11
			What is their belief in Allah?
		
00:58:12 --> 00:58:13
			What is their belief in messengers?
		
00:58:13 --> 00:58:18
			And then especially messenger of our messenger, Prophet
		
00:58:18 --> 00:58:19
			ﷺ.
		
00:58:20 --> 00:58:21
			What is their belief about him?
		
00:58:22 --> 00:58:24
			Those things when they become fortified, the five
		
00:58:24 --> 00:58:26
			pillars and the practice becomes very easy.
		
00:58:29 --> 00:58:32
			Alladhina yu'minuna bilghaybi wa yuqeemuna as-salata.
		
00:58:33 --> 00:58:35
			And they establish prayer.
		
00:58:36 --> 00:58:38
			Iqamat as-salah entails multiple things.
		
00:58:38 --> 00:58:42
			Number one, iqamat as-salah means to establish
		
00:58:42 --> 00:58:46
			the prayer with all of its arqan, all
		
00:58:46 --> 00:58:49
			of the pillars of what is required in
		
00:58:49 --> 00:58:49
			the salah.
		
00:58:49 --> 00:58:52
			When they establish the prayer, they don't miss
		
00:58:52 --> 00:58:54
			out on the key movements that are necessary
		
00:58:54 --> 00:58:55
			for the salah to take place.
		
00:58:56 --> 00:58:59
			Number two, iqamat as-salah means all of
		
00:58:59 --> 00:59:01
			the shurut, all of the conditions that must
		
00:59:01 --> 00:59:02
			be met.
		
00:59:02 --> 00:59:04
			Your clothes are clean.
		
00:59:04 --> 00:59:06
			You're praying at a clean space.
		
00:59:06 --> 00:59:07
			You're facing qiblah.
		
00:59:07 --> 00:59:09
			All of those, your clothes are covering you
		
00:59:09 --> 00:59:11
			what they're supposed to cover.
		
00:59:11 --> 00:59:12
			All of that are met.
		
00:59:13 --> 00:59:15
			The third part of iqamat as-salah is
		
00:59:15 --> 00:59:17
			as Imam Ghazali says, it's the iqama of
		
00:59:17 --> 00:59:21
			salah in your heart, that you're present when
		
00:59:21 --> 00:59:21
			you're praying.
		
00:59:22 --> 00:59:25
			It's not like Allahu Akbar, okay, tomorrow I
		
00:59:25 --> 00:59:26
			have this task and I have to go
		
00:59:26 --> 00:59:27
			do this and have that.
		
00:59:27 --> 00:59:30
			You're trying to just knock off isha so
		
00:59:30 --> 00:59:32
			you can get to bed so that you
		
00:59:32 --> 00:59:33
			can be prepared for tomorrow.
		
00:59:34 --> 00:59:37
			And last thing, iqamat as-salah is jama
		
00:59:37 --> 00:59:38
			'ah, salah al-jama'ah.
		
00:59:39 --> 00:59:42
			All of these aqwal of the salaf exist.
		
00:59:44 --> 00:59:46
			Wa min ma razaqnahum yunfiqoon.
		
00:59:46 --> 00:59:48
			And from that which We have given rizq
		
00:59:48 --> 00:59:51
			to them, they spend.
		
00:59:52 --> 00:59:55
			And this is referring to not necessarily money.
		
00:59:56 --> 00:59:58
			Anything that they have, they can share with
		
00:59:58 --> 01:00:00
			others and others can benefit.
		
01:00:00 --> 01:00:03
			Anything of benefit that Allah has taught you
		
01:00:03 --> 01:00:05
			and you did not know, you can share
		
01:00:05 --> 01:00:06
			with others, is rizq.
		
01:00:08 --> 01:00:08
			Jameel?
		
01:00:09 --> 01:00:12
			Wal ladheena yu'minoona bima unzila ilayk.
		
01:00:12 --> 01:00:14
			And who are the muttaqeen?
		
01:00:14 --> 01:00:17
			They are those who yu'minoona, they believe, bima
		
01:00:17 --> 01:00:20
			unzila ilayka, they believe in this Qur'an.
		
01:00:21 --> 01:00:23
			i.e. unzila ilayka, this Qur'an that
		
01:00:23 --> 01:00:25
			has been revealed to you, O Prophet of
		
01:00:25 --> 01:00:27
			Allah, wa ma unzila min qablik.
		
01:00:28 --> 01:00:32
			And what was revealed before you, wa bil
		
01:00:32 --> 01:00:33
			-akhirateen.
		
01:00:33 --> 01:00:35
			And the key quality of a muttaqeen is,
		
01:00:36 --> 01:00:39
			wa bil-akhirateen, in the hereafter, whom they
		
01:00:39 --> 01:00:41
			yu'minoona, they are certain.
		
01:00:42 --> 01:00:46
			They have no doubt about akhira, right?
		
01:00:46 --> 01:00:52
			We have numerous, numerous examples of our pious
		
01:00:52 --> 01:00:56
			predecessors, our salaf as-salihin, where their yaqeen
		
01:00:56 --> 01:00:59
			in akhira was so much that they could
		
01:00:59 --> 01:01:02
			viscerally actually taste and smell akhira.
		
01:01:05 --> 01:01:07
			The yaqeen reaches that level.
		
01:01:07 --> 01:01:09
			And I do this example, and I tell
		
01:01:09 --> 01:01:13
			people, how is that possible, right?
		
01:01:13 --> 01:01:15
			Once I made a milkshake for my mum
		
01:01:15 --> 01:01:17
			and my sister.
		
01:01:17 --> 01:01:18
			This was before I was married.
		
01:01:19 --> 01:01:22
			And we made the milkshake, and after they
		
01:01:22 --> 01:01:25
			all drank the milkshake, right, this was the
		
01:01:25 --> 01:01:29
			days when I was playing varsity sports, and
		
01:01:29 --> 01:01:34
			before protein shakes became a thing, you would
		
01:01:34 --> 01:01:37
			do what, what would you do for a
		
01:01:37 --> 01:01:38
			protein kick in your shake?
		
01:01:39 --> 01:01:40
			Eggs.
		
01:01:40 --> 01:01:41
			Crack an egg.
		
01:01:41 --> 01:01:42
			Crack an egg.
		
01:01:42 --> 01:01:43
			Two eggs.
		
01:01:43 --> 01:01:44
			And you're good.
		
01:01:44 --> 01:01:46
			Raw eggs in your thing.
		
01:01:46 --> 01:01:47
			You know what I'm talking about.
		
01:01:47 --> 01:01:49
			Eggs was the protein thing you had.
		
01:01:49 --> 01:01:51
			And that was a normal thing within the
		
01:01:51 --> 01:01:52
			high school kids, like in the 90s, that's
		
01:01:52 --> 01:01:53
			what you did.
		
01:01:53 --> 01:01:57
			Like, bro, I'm having a banana shake with
		
01:01:57 --> 01:01:57
			eggs.
		
01:01:57 --> 01:01:58
			It's a normal thing.
		
01:01:59 --> 01:02:01
			It had an afro taste, but you got
		
01:02:01 --> 01:02:02
			used to it.
		
01:02:04 --> 01:02:10
			So, I gave the milkshake to my sister
		
01:02:10 --> 01:02:12
			and my mum, and all I said was
		
01:02:12 --> 01:02:13
			this statement.
		
01:02:14 --> 01:02:19
			I said, how amazing milkshake tastes with raw
		
01:02:19 --> 01:02:19
			eggs, right?
		
01:02:19 --> 01:02:23
			I didn't say anything about the milkshake.
		
01:02:23 --> 01:02:25
			I just made a random statement.
		
01:02:26 --> 01:02:33
			And their yaqeen reached a level, there was
		
01:02:33 --> 01:02:34
			no eggs in their milkshake.
		
01:02:34 --> 01:02:37
			But they believed that there was eggs in
		
01:02:37 --> 01:02:38
			their milkshake.
		
01:02:38 --> 01:02:40
			They started puking.
		
01:02:40 --> 01:02:44
			They started tasting it in their mouth, just
		
01:02:44 --> 01:02:46
			because they convinced themselves.
		
01:02:46 --> 01:02:47
			And they're like, I can taste it.
		
01:02:47 --> 01:02:49
			But yeah, I can taste it.
		
01:02:49 --> 01:02:50
			It's in the mouth.
		
01:02:51 --> 01:02:51
			Right?
		
01:02:51 --> 01:02:53
			And that's what yaqeen does.
		
01:02:54 --> 01:02:56
			Anybody know of any example from Sirah of
		
01:02:56 --> 01:03:00
			a Sahabi, where he tasted Jannah?
		
01:03:09 --> 01:03:10
			No.
		
01:03:11 --> 01:03:11
			No.
		
01:03:14 --> 01:03:17
			Inni la ajidoo reeha al-jannah, reeha al
		
01:03:17 --> 01:03:19
			-jannah waraa al-uhud.
		
01:03:20 --> 01:03:22
			So Rasulullah ﷺ was sitting with a Sahabi,
		
01:03:23 --> 01:03:25
			and a Sahabi, he said, leave me, leave
		
01:03:25 --> 01:03:25
			me.
		
01:03:26 --> 01:03:28
			I can smell Jannah behind Uhud.
		
01:03:32 --> 01:03:35
			He got up, he fought, he became a
		
01:03:35 --> 01:03:35
			shaheed.
		
01:03:37 --> 01:03:40
			Because he told Rasulullah, I can smell Jannah
		
01:03:40 --> 01:03:42
			behind Uhud, it's there, I can smell it.
		
01:03:43 --> 01:03:45
			Because their yaqeen reached that level, may Allah
		
01:03:45 --> 01:03:47
			grant us that yaqeen, right?
		
01:03:47 --> 01:03:49
			So wa bil-akhirati hum yuqinoon, they have
		
01:03:49 --> 01:03:53
			this yaqeen, Ibn Taymiyyah used to say that
		
01:03:53 --> 01:03:58
			an insan, you will never taste the Jannah
		
01:03:58 --> 01:04:01
			of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala if you
		
01:04:01 --> 01:04:03
			have not tasted the Jannah in this world.
		
01:04:05 --> 01:04:08
			Your yaqeen reaches that level and your connection
		
01:04:08 --> 01:04:11
			with Allah that you taste the sweetness of
		
01:04:11 --> 01:04:13
			that closeness to Allah in this dunya.
		
01:04:15 --> 01:04:16
			He used to say there is a Jannah
		
01:04:16 --> 01:04:18
			for believers in this world.
		
01:04:18 --> 01:04:20
			If you haven't tasted that Jannah, what is
		
01:04:20 --> 01:04:21
			he referring to?
		
01:04:21 --> 01:04:25
			He's referring to the closeness with Allah Subhanahu
		
01:04:25 --> 01:04:26
			Wa Ta'ala in your connection with Allah
		
01:04:26 --> 01:04:28
			that leads to the sweetness.
		
01:04:29 --> 01:04:31
			Dr Ghulam Murtaza Shaheed, he used to say
		
01:04:31 --> 01:04:33
			that, and he used to say this in
		
01:04:33 --> 01:04:43
			Urdu, the connection with Allah is so
		
01:04:43 --> 01:04:45
			tasteless that you can't even feel it and
		
01:04:45 --> 01:04:47
			taste this, it's impossible.
		
01:04:48 --> 01:04:50
			So, Ibn Taymiyyah used to say there is
		
01:04:50 --> 01:04:52
			a Jannah for the believers in this world,
		
01:04:53 --> 01:04:56
			whosoever does not taste it in this world
		
01:04:56 --> 01:04:59
			shall not taste the Jannah in akhirah.
		
01:05:00 --> 01:05:02
			What is he referring to?
		
01:05:02 --> 01:05:05
			That you must build that visceral connection of
		
01:05:05 --> 01:05:07
			yaqeen in this world, may Allah grant us
		
01:05:07 --> 01:05:07
			that.
		
01:05:08 --> 01:05:12
			Ulaika ala hudam mir Rabbihim, these muttaqeen are
		
01:05:12 --> 01:05:16
			the people that are upon their guidance, hudam,
		
01:05:16 --> 01:05:19
			they are upon guidance, mir Rabbihim, from their
		
01:05:19 --> 01:05:19
			Rabb.
		
01:05:20 --> 01:05:22
			That tells you, you can put in the
		
01:05:22 --> 01:05:24
			effort, we can put in the effort, yuqeemuna
		
01:05:24 --> 01:05:27
			salata wa yu'tuna zakata wa mimma razaqnahu min
