00:00:00 --> 00:00:01
			Once
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:05
			our mother, Ayesha Allahu Taala
anha,
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:08
			was asked the question,
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:12
			describe the morals, describe the
day and night,
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			describe the akhlaq in character,
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:21
			describe the way of life of
Muhammadu Rasulullah sallallahu
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:22
			alayhi wa sallam Abu
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:27
			she could have went into a lengthy
description
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:33
			and Walla, if you are given the
life of no Ali Salam, and every
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:36
			second of that life is spent
describing Rasulullah, sallAllahu,
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:39
			sallam, we will still not do
justice.
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:45
			Yet. Look at the intelligence
which Allah bestowed our
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			motherhood.
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:52
			That she summed up this huge,
monumental question in three
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:52
			words.
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:58
			What did she say? She said,
kanakulu kuhul Quran, kanakaul
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:03
			Quran, if you want to see the day,
the night, the Constitution, the
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:08
			message, the import, the way of
life of the Quran. Then it is
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:12
			Muhammad, Rasulullah, sallAllahu,
alayhi wa sallam, the akhlaq and
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:16
			character of rasulallah is the
living embodiment of the Quran.
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:24
			Now listen to this verse, Allah
says lakadakana. Lakad,
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:31
			kaanala, kumfi, Rasul, Ilahi,
uswatun, hasana. You want Allah.
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:36
			You want Jannat. You want
forgiveness. You want Allah to
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:40
			love you. You want honor in this
world, you want prosperity. You
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			want, barakah, whatever you want.
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:47
			It is contained in this verse of
the Quran Allah says, for you in
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:53
			Muhammad, Rasulullah, sallAllahu,
alayhi wa sallam, uswat hasana.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:58
			Before I translate uswatun hasana,
Allah says, For who is this? For
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:04
			who is this? Niman Khan, arjulah,
akhir WADA karallah, who believes
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:08
			in Allah and in akhirat, the one
who has Iman, the one who wants
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:12
			Jannah, the one who wants Akira
for him in Rasulullah Sallam is
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:13
			uswatun hasana.
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			Allah did not say uswatun Kamila,
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:23
			perfect, complete culmination that
is car mail in Arabic, and
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:26
			definitely to Rasulullah
sallallahu, sallam, everything
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:29
			reached perfection. Nubuwat
reached perfection.
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:34
			Just to illustrate this point,
nubuwa reached perfection. Once,
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:38
			Rasulullah sallallahu gave a
paraben an example describing the
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:42
			home of nubuvat from Adam Ali
Salam to the last Nabi. He
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:46
			described it as if a house was
being built. And then he said they
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:51
			were in the corner. There was one
gap left, there was one gap left,
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:55
			one brick still to come. And then
he said, * laminatul, akhira
		
00:02:56 --> 00:03:00
			wa Anna fataman Nabi, I am the
final brick. In other words, I am
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:04
			the culmination, the completion of
the home of nubuat through him was
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:08
			the culmination, Completion,
perfection of Islam. Ali OMA
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:13
			Akmal, tulakum, dinakum Wat
malikum, nyamati, what Adi Tula
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:16
			Kumul Islam. Adina through him was
the culmination completion,
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:22
			perfection of ala boisto, Liu,
tamli, Makani, like that. We can
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:27
			go on culmination, Completion,
perfection, Epitome. Height was
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:31
			reached through Rasulullah. But
interestingly, in this verse,
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:35
			logically, it should have been
uswatun Kamila, perfect example,
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:40
			Allah does not say uswatun kami
What does Allah say? Uswatun hasa
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:47
			for you in Rasulullah Islam is the
most beautiful example, the most
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:48
			beautiful way of life.
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:55
			Kamil is contained in this. But
why beautiful? One reason Ola maki
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:58
			RAM give, they say for beauty, you
don't need a proof.
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:02
			If someone tells you know what?
It's a 14 full moon. I look at how
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:05
			beautiful the moon is, and you
say, Bye, Dalila, bring me one
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:10
			proof. What do you name pagal? Are
you lost your marbles? A woman is
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:13
			beautiful. Something is
attractive, beautiful. You don't
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:17
			need a proof for it. You don't
need a proof for it. In itself. It
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:21
			has that magnetic attraction on
the one explanation, the other
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:25
			explanation, my respected
brothers, Olam, I cannot give
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:31
			laka, the kanala, kumfi,
rasulallah, uswatun, hasana, what
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:36
			is the quality of beauty that it
attracts, it magnetizes. You don't
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:40
			have to introduce or you don't
have to give a Bayan or make a
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:44
			skill, or convince somebody that
you don't have to convince a human
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:48
			being to go towards beauty. Allah
has made this heart such
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:53
			automatically, it is drawn towards
beauty. What better way to explain
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:55
			this? Few years ago in the Haram,
you.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:05
			He was salam. He is the servant of
Rasulullah sallallahu sallam. When
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:09
			this child was 10 years old,
mother came gave this child. She
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:13
			said, Ya rasulallah, this is your
Amana. I am making work up of my
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:17
			son to serve you. And then what
does he say? He says, khadam tum
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:22
			Nabi, ya SallAllahu, alayhi wa
sallam, ashravasinin. He says, I
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:27
			was the servant of Nabi salal
Islam for 10 years. For 10 years,
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:30
			he was khadimur Rasul. And they
say today, if you want to
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:33
			understand, if you want to
understand the character of a
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:38
			person, if you want to understand
the character of a person, if you
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:41
			want to understand the metal of an
individual, if you want to know
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:45
			the inside of a person, there's
two people you ask, one is the
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:49
			wife and the other is the servant.
One is the wife, the other is the
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:51
			servant. You don't ask the outside
world to fool the outside world is
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:55
			very easy. Normally, when it comes
to wives, my Ustad, he says, the
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:59
			only time, the only time a woman
has anything good to say about her
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:03
			husband is before they get married
and after he dies. In between,
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:06
			very rarely you find a woman
saying anything good about her
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:09
			husband. Why? Because that is the
crunch test the wife and the
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:13
			servant, Allah, what? But this is
not the topic. So I'm not going to
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:16
			details. I'm just digressing.
Anasadi Allahu, anhu, he said, I
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:22
			served Rasulullah. SallAllahu,
alayhi. He was salam for 10 years.
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:27
			In that 10 year period, he never
raised his voice at me. Once,
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:32
			never raised his voice at me.
Once, never scolded me. Once,
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:37
			never insulted me. Once. This is
sunnah. This is sunnah. How many
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:40
			of us can say that about
ourselves? How many of us can say
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:44
			that about our staff. Masha,
Allah, tahajjud, guzar is in his
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:46
			place. Walla, this is harder.
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:51
			This is harder. This is more
difficult. But today we don't even
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:54
			regard this as an aspect of Deen.
Nevertheless, coming back to that
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:58
			hadith, Rasulullah saw some
addresses Ya Abu Naya, he says, Oh
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:02
			my beloved son. He's talking to
His servant, but he doesn't say,
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:08
			Oh My servant, Oh my beloved Son,
ya abuna in his Tata. And tuspiah
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:14
			watums here, if you have the
ability, if you have the ability.
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:19
			And tuspiah watums here, that
every morning and every evening.
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:26
			What is this is, what does it
mean? It means this is a 24 hour
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:29
			battle. And it is not just a 24
hour battle. It is a what I'm
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:33
			about to tell you, Rasulullah is
telling Annas, and through Him the
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:37
			whole ummat. This is a jihad and a
war that you will have to wage,
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:41
			not just morning and evening, not
just when you are young, when you
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:44
			are young, when you are old, when
you are rich, when you are poor,
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:48
			when you are healthy, when you are
sick, wherever, whoever, whenever.
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:52
			This is one Jihad that you will
have to wage your entire life.
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:59
			What jihad in istakata and tuspiha
watumsia. This is ishara. This is
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:03
			the indication that this is a
lifelong battle, winter, summer,
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:08
			autumn, anytime, any place. This
is a lifetime battle. Fajr, you
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:11
			only have to make mujada that
time. Zohar, five Salah on the
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:16
			time, Ramadan in its place, *
in its place. Zakat once a year.
		
00:13:17 --> 00:13:21
			This is a lifelong battle. And
tuspi, Hawa, tumsia, what battle?
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:26
			Wale Safi kalbika rishonli akhad.
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:34
			Wale Safi kalbika rishonli akhad O
My Beloved Son, if you have the
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:39
			ability that for your entire life,
you adopt this quality that in
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:46
			your heart, there is no nafrat, no
malice, no dislike, no hatred, no
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:50
			enmity, no jealous for any
individual
		
00:13:51 --> 00:13:56
			clean this heart, whether he is a
drunkard, whether he is visiting
		
00:13:56 --> 00:14:00
			the casinos, whether he whether
you think your financial status
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:03
			has made you somehow rather
superior to him, whatever
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:08
			language, whatever race he belongs
to, every person you come into
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:12
			contact with, my Navier is saying
to Anas, clean this heart. Clean
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:16
			this heart. Don't look down at
that person. Don't have hatred for
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:20
			that person. Don't have malice for
that person. Don't carry a grudge
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:23
			against that person.
Unfortunately, today, my respected
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:27
			brothers like how one nurtures a
child, like how one brings up a
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:31
			child. In our hearts, we nurture
nafran, we nurture hatred, we
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:34
			nurture jealousy, malice. Got a
person who's got a problem with
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:37
			his wife, he's got a problem with
his children, he's got a problem
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:40
			with his neighbor, he's got a
problem with his friend. He's got
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:42
			a problem with his friend. He's
got a problem with everyone he
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:46
			comes into contact with, and we
feel we have been that and pious
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:53
			in his Tata and tuskehawa, tumsia,
Wales,
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:59
			fafal, oh, my son, if you can do
this, do this. Do this.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:00
			Us.
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:03
			And what will Allah give you
before I complete the Hadees, two
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:07
			incidents they going to mention.
Once, rasulallah sitting with
		
00:15:07 --> 00:15:07
			Sahaba,
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:13
			he says to them that just now,
from this door of the masjid, a
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:17
			person who is going to enter, and
that person is a janati.
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:26
			That person is a Jannati. Imagine
who is saying this Rasulullah,
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:30
			this man in is walking in Madina
is about to enter this Masjid. He
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:35
			is a Jannati. Everyone's curiosity
speaks. Who is this person? Who is
		
00:15:35 --> 00:15:40
			this Allama? Who is this bush?
Gane, DEEN among Sava, an
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:43
			ordinary, elderly Sahabi who had
just finished making his wuzu. His
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:46
			face was still wet. He enters the
masjid
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:50
			Navis said about him. He is a
janati. Second day this happened.
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:54
			Third day it happened. Same
person. So among Sahaba, one
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:59
			youngster, what was his name?
Abdullah bin Amar bin Asmaa
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:06
			kirama, of the opinion. This is
Abu du Sahaba. This is Abu Sahaba.
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:11
			Certain Sahaba excelled in certain
aspects. The greatest Sabi was Abu
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:15
			Bakar, the Allahu consensus. But
they were distinctive aspects in
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:19
			which certain Sahaba excelled.
This youngster excelled in what in
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:23
			Ibadan, it is mentioned about
Abdullah bin Ahmed been asked that
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:29
			his daily mamul He used to fast
every day, make tahajjud the
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:34
			entire night and make one khatam
of the Quran every day. This was
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:37
			the daily mamul of this youngster.
Now he is hearing that there is a
		
00:16:37 --> 00:16:42
			jannathi. This elderly person is a
janati. So his curiosity is peak.
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:46
			I make so much Ibadan, how much
Ibadan this person must be making?
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:51
			So he hatches a plan. Comes in the
rewired first ad for who Abdullah
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:55
			bin Amar bin asks. Abdullah bin
Amar bin asks, goes to the House
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:58
			of this person, and he says,
chacha
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:02
			addresses him with respect. He
says, Can I be your guest for a
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:06
			few days? What? Why? He's not
telling him why, but the plan is,
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:09
			let me see what. What is the
special Amal, this man is doing?
		
00:17:11 --> 00:17:14
			Nevertheless, he says, No problem.
Become my guest. Abdullah bin
		
00:17:14 --> 00:17:18
			Ahmed bin ask himself, nave, he
says, night time came. I hid under
		
00:17:18 --> 00:17:22
			the blanket, pretending to sleep,
to see what he does. He says, this
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:26
			old uncle entered the house after
Isha lay down on the bed,
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:30
			Allahumma, bismika, Muto akhiya,
and snoring within a few minutes,
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:34
			he says, waiting maybe 10 minutes
time, 20 minutes time, half hour's
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:36
			time, one hours time, two hours
time, nothing is happening. This
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:41
			man is still sleeping right up
till the Azaan of Fajr. No Taj
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:42
			also, he
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:47
			says, maybe something happened
today, so maybe I missed out on
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:51
			something, because on the one
hand, rasulallah Given the stamp.
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:55
			This is the janati. So no, no
question of doubting that. So
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:58
			there must be something. I must
second night, same thing. Third
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:02
			night, same thing. Finally, he
can't hold his curiosity anymore.
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:06
			He says, I just made an excuse. I
became your guest. Because this is
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:09
			what Nami Islam said about you.
What is so special that you are
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:11
			doing? I haven't seen anything.
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:15
			This person said, Brother, I am an
open book. Whatever you saw that
		
00:18:15 --> 00:18:16
			is there. So
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:21
			finally, Abdullah bin AMR in this
uljan, in this confusion now he's
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:22
			leaving the house,
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:25
			then this elderly Savi calls him
back
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:30
			Allahu Akbar. What does he say to
you? He says, There is one thing
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:40
			Amma ini, abi to alayhi, Safi,
kalbi, really Ahad. He says, Every
		
00:18:40 --> 00:18:43
			night, I can say with absolute
conviction that when I go to sleep
		
00:18:44 --> 00:18:49
			in my heart, there is no negative
sentiment against anyone. This
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:54
			heart of mine is clean one thing
and second thing, second thing, if
		
00:18:54 --> 00:19:01
			anyone in front of me prospers,
becomes rich, gets get gets dealt
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:08
			a good hand. I feel absolutely no
jealousy or regret in my heart. In
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:12
			fact, I am genuinely happy for
that person. When Abdullah bin,
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:17
			Ahmed bin asks Abu as what does he
say? He doesn't just say yes. He
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:17
			says,
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:18
			Allah,
		
00:19:21 --> 00:19:25
			it is this. It is this that has
caused my Nabi on three occasions
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:29
			to say you are a janmati to
complete that hadith. Oh, my
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:33
			beloved Son, if you have the
ability and to be hava tumsia
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:37
			Morning and Evening your entire
life, to make it such that in your
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:42
			heart there is no nafrat for
anyone for I'll do so. And then,
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:47
			what does my Nabi say? Wadali ka
Min sunnati. Wadali ka Min
		
00:19:47 --> 00:19:52
			sunnati, this is my special sunnat
woman, ahaba sunnati, Sharat, the
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:57
			one who loves this. Sunnat
fakahabani, he loves me, and the
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:59
			one who loves me, Kana mai filja.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:04
			Sunnah will be with Me in Jannat,
illaman at Allah, Abu talibin
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:09
			Salim, Allah says, meet Allah with
a clean heart. Take out this
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:13
			hafrat, bhasrat, take out this
nafrat, take out this jealousy.
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:17
			Cleanse This heart. This is
sunnah. This is AK, and this is
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:20
			what will draw humanity towards
us. Allah, documentary you.
