Allah Allah who the hula Shanika Illa hula Valina here in Washington Nabi Jana Muhammad Anna Abdul
Hora sudo Mustafa Amin, Allah who was somebody was selling more radical abductor or pseudo Muhammad
wa ala alihi wa sahbihi Ultramarine and my bad Welcome to another episode of Out of seal page by
page and inshallah Tada. Today we begin with the first page of the second dose of the Quran. So page
number 22 of the book of Allah subhanaw taala. And
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:05
			this is still in Surah Al Baqarah, at the beginning of the second dose of the Quran,
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:37
			Allah subhanaw taala at the beginning of the second Jews will mention to us the story of the
changing of the Qibla the changing of the direction of prayer from May to Noctus, in Jerusalem to
the Kaaba in Mecca. And it is a it is a story that takes place so that is mentioned in some detail
in the Quran number of verses as we'll see. For the first page page and a half of this Joseph Allah
azza wa jal speaks about the changing of the Qibla. And what took place because it became a moment
of test and trial
		
00:01:38 --> 00:02:04
			for the amount of the believers number one, but also for the wider community of Medina, the
disbelievers that were there the Jewish tribes and others, because they consider it to be something
which which was insanely in their rights. And Allah subhanaw taala refutes this assertion, the
prophets of Allah while he was sent them from the beginning of Islam, he would pray towards
Jerusalem. That was the initial Dibbler. Qibla means the direction that you face as you pray.
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:42
			The initial direction that the believers were told to train, to pray towards was the qibla in
Jerusalem, be to mock the semester that AXA, and the believers would do so the prophets of Allah why
Listen, as we know, in the Meccan period, because of the persecution of the Mexicans, towards the
Muslims, and because of the difficulties that they faced, the vast majority of the Muslims didn't
pray openly in outside anyway, they didn't pray openly by the Kaaba, and so on. In fact, only the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would really do so. And even when the prophets of Allah while he
was sending was facing the, the direction of return macness You will always have the Kaaba between
		
00:02:42 --> 00:03:23
			him and between that direction are we to knock this so if beta because as we know, the, the caliber
is a cuboid shape. And so therefore, even as we do today, when you come to the karma, you can play
out from any direction around the karma, literally 360 degrees or in the karma, all of you can face.
So therefore if he's facing in the direction of Jerusalem, he would place the karma between himself
and that direction, according to a number of the books of Sierra and so on. However, when the
prophets of Allah while he was still him, then migrated to Medina, as is mentioned in Sahadi, the
direction of the Qibla we mean towards Jerusalem for about a year and a half, approximately 16 1718
		
00:03:23 --> 00:04:02
			months before this revelation was given to the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam, the verses that we
will speak about today. And so now the Prophet Salam can no longer face to Qibla through the Kaaba,
he can't face the Kaaba and then by extension, face, Jerusalem now he must only face Jerusalem. And
so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam always wanted the Qibla of the Muslims to be towards the
Kaaba, because that is the house of Ibrahim the house that was built by Ibrahim Ali salatu salam,
that is the first house of Allah azza wa jal placed upon this earth as Allah subhanaw taala will
mention in the forthcoming Surah In Surah Ali Imran and so therefore Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:41
			Eventually or after these 16 1718 months in, in Medina, the prophets of Allah while he was telling
was given this instruction and command that the Muslims should not change their direction towards
the Qibla, which is in from Jerusalem towards the Qibla of the Kaaba in Mecca. When this happened, a
number of people spoke out the hypocrites and the Jews and others who used to live around Medina
they spoke and the Mushnik in Germany, the disbelievers in Arabia, they spoke and they said what
kind of religion is this that doesn't even know which way that it should be faced, it doesn't even
know the direction of its worship one way one time is facing this way and the next time is facing
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:59
			that way. And so it became a means of them being able to use this as a means of attacking the
religion. And so therefore Allah subhanaw taala begins or we begin the second juice of the Quran,
Radha in verse number 142 With this particular
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:39
			incident and the steamed of Allah azza wa jal, I will be lurking in a shape on the regime, say Oh
no. So for her Amina Nassima wala whom I'm liberality, he will let the can Who are they? The foolish
will say, what has made them turn away from the prior direction that they used to face. And so the
fullest share of those people that spoke out from the Jewish tribes from the hypocrites from the
Arabs in general, the disbelieving Arabs of Arabian General, who said, what kind of religion is
this? What kind of foolishness is this? See it as a test for the believers in the sense that and as
believers we believe that Allah subhanaw taala is the one who legislates and as the one who
		
00:05:39 --> 00:06:21
			legislation chooses his religion, then he may change his legislation as he pleases subhanaw taala
and so the believer it is a test for them, to see how well they submit to the commands of Allah
subhanaw taala. A person who submits fully to Allah azza wa jal has no problem with Allah subhanaw
taala changing his rules and legislation. And we've given a number of examples of this in the Quran,
Allah azza wa jal as we mentioned in the verse that we mentioned a number of episodes ago now, when
he says man as a supplement is in odunsi, her naughty behavior minha omit Lea, we don't cause the
universe to be forgotten or abrogated, except that we bring another similar to it or better than it
		
00:06:21 --> 00:07:00
			shows that Allah subhanaw taala does these things for wisdom that he knows best subhanaw taala and
so Allah azza wa jal is saying to the companions, and to the Muslims in general, that these people
who are who are opposing this was speaking out who are criticizing, they are foolish people say a
cooler sofa hat. They are the fools because they think that Allah azza wa jal doesn't have the right
to change his religion, even though they amongst themselves. For example, the Christians accept that
the that when Jesus came, He changed the laws of the Torah, he changed some of that which he had,
because Allah commanded him to do so. So therefore, why can Allah subhanaw taala change his
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:34
			religion? Welcome Allah azza wa jal give a command at the beginning of Islam and the Muslims are
going through certain difficulties, and then change that ruling later on. But with the caveat,
obviously that now with the death of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and the ending of the
revelation of the completion of the revelation of the Quran, they're no longer is that scope to
change the revelation of the Quran or the commands of Allah subhanaw taala and the sharing of Allah
azza wa jal, but in this particular time, in the life of the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
then it is foolish to criticize such things. Allah azza wa jal says Paul Lilla, Hill missionary,
		
00:07:35 --> 00:08:13
			Maghreb, Satan rather to Allah azza wa jal belongs the east and the west. Because those people that
are saying why has he changes direction? It's not as if only Allah, only you can you can only
worship Allah, if you face Jerusalem. But if you face the Kaaba, now you're facing to other than
Allah subhanaw taala doesn't Allah own everything in existence? It doesn't Allah azza wa jal own
east and the west, this is an Allah subhanaw taala choose wherever he wants people to face in terms
of worship. So therefore what is even the point of your criticism? What is even issue? Are you
saying that Allah azza wa jal is no longer being faced in prayer, when the Muslims pray towards the
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:20
			Kaaba say to Allah belongs the Eastern the West. Yeah, de May, yesha
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:59
			was stopping, and say that he guides whomsoever He wills to the street wait Subhana wa Tada Allah
azza wa jal guides and guides whomsoever He wills and Allah subhanaw taala shows here that therefore
the believer is the one who when the Command of Allah azza wa jal comes the submit to it immediately
and completely. There those people who went Allah azza wa jal says something or the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says something, they submit, and they don't question and they don't
disregard and they don't ignore and they don't find a way to circumvent there are people who worship
Allah subhanho wa Taala and that is why Allah azza wa jal in the next verse, verse 143, Allah
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:43
			subhanaw taala praises this ummah. And one of the reasons for which they are praised is because of
this balanced approach, because they are a nation that is on the middle path. They don't go to one
extreme or the other. Allah subhanaw taala says waka Nica Jana come on matter who was upon Lita Kuno
shahada Island nurse, why Hakuna Rasool, where are they come Shahida we have made two believers into
a just community into a middle balance just community so that you may be a witness to the truth
before others, so that they may the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam may bear witness to it
before you Allah subhanaw taala that pleases this ummah, because we are middle and we are balanced
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:59
			and we are just, we are just when it comes to issues of our happy that our belief, we believe in
Allah subhanaw taala we believe in the messengers of Allah azza wa jal or the Messiah to set up but
we don't give any of the creation of Allah whether it's an angel or a prophet or a messenger or a
righteous person.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:36
			A station over and above that which Allah azza wa jal has given to them. We won't say about a
prophet of Allah, that they are a child of Allah. We don't say about the angels that are the
daughters of Allah. We don't say that the saints are the righteous people are elevated to such a
position that you can almost worship them besides Allah subhana wa Tada. So we don't go to that
extreme, nor do we go to the other extreme of demeaning them, diminishing their status, rejecting
them, saying that they will people who didn't mind aren't any different to any other person. We are
human, we are human, and there is no absolute difference between us. We are people who are balanced
		
00:10:36 --> 00:11:15
			in our belief, balanced in the worship of Allah subhanaw taala in the sense that we don't innovate
in our religion, we don't go to extremes in the way that we, for example, Bill tunes overall massage
or or the grains, sorry, the graves of the dead and so on. No, do we go to the other extreme of not
worshipping Allah, of not fulfilling the rights of Allah subhanaw taala I'm not doing as Allah azza
wa jal commanded, we are people who are just in terms of our character. We don't go overboard in one
characteristic or another node we diminish the rights of others in terms of the character and the
way the way that we treat them, everything across the board in our Sharia, our religion is balanced,
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:39
			because there is a religion that Allah subhanaw taala revealed. And Allah azza wa jal therefore says
that we as people should be balanced and fair, balanced in the way that we believe in our religion,
in the sense that we take everything that Allah azza wa jal gave to us. We don't need to add. We
don't need to detract. We don't need to innovate, and we don't need to ignore aspects of our
religion. And we are just in the way that we treat others just in everything that we do. And for
that reason,
		
00:11:40 --> 00:12:20
			Allah azza wa jal says that you will be witnesses amongst the people on the Day of Judgment, meaning
that this OMA will be chosen to be witnesses over all of the other nations that came before us. All
of the other nations. We will be witnesses over them, the prophet allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
that on the Day of Judgment, Allah subhanaw taala will call the Prophet Muhammad Ali salatu salam,
and the Prophet no Hadees salatu salam will respond and you will you will be asked by Allah, did you
convey your message or the message to your people? And he will say yes, oh Allah. So Allah azza wa
jal will address then the nation of no Hadees ceremony will ask them did not convey the message to
		
00:12:20 --> 00:13:00
			you. And they will say no messenger came to us. We don't know of any prophet or messenger that came
to us with a message warning us of Allah's punishment and so on. So Allah azza wa jal will ask the
Prophet no Hadees sent him who will be all witnesses who can testify on your behalf. And he will
turn around and say, Oh Allah, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in his OMA, the Muhammad will
testify for me. So we, as a collective nation will testify. How will we testify to what new Hadi
Salam said and did with his people and how they responded, because we will testify based upon the
revelation that we have in the Quran. The story is that Allah azza wa jal mentioned to us of know
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:34
			how to use them and his people. And that is why the prophet has sent them said that Allah azza wa
jal says this, And who will be the witness over and above us, the messenger who is the messenger,
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and so Allah azza wa jal has given to us distinction and this
honor, because of this very reason. And so therefore, in the context of the Surah, when Allah azza
wa jal tells us to do something or not to do something, or we know that one of the roles of Allah
azza wa jal was abrogated, and changed from the beginning of the time of the Prophet sunnah maybe
towards the end of the life of the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam, we are people who are
		
00:13:34 --> 00:14:20
			balanced we understand we accept that Allah azza wa jal can do as he pleases in his religion, that
Allah legislate as he chooses, and as he pleases subhanaw taala and it is not for me or you to
oppose or to contradict, or to criticize or to refuse. This is the religion of Allah subhanho wa
Taala and it is for the attribute that Allah azza wa jal praises this ummah. Allah azza wa jal then
continues in verse 143. And he says, one man journal capability let equal 30 learn in our ALEMI Toby
Rasul Allah mean may Kalibata TB Allah azza wa jal says we only made the direction, the one that you
used to face in order to distinguish those who follow the messenger from those who turn on the
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:59
			hills. And that is the heart test when Karnataka mera ILAHA Lavina Had Allah that test was hard
except for those whom Allah azza wa jal has guided. Allah azza wa jal says that this whole incident
of changing the Qibla from Jerusalem to Mecca is as a test for the people. It is a test for the
people of Eman to see will they accept the commands of Allah? Will they accept the commands of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and it is a test for the disbelievers because for them it
becomes another fitna it becomes another trial and test for them that makes them doubt even more in
the region of Allah subhanho data they're so far far gone in the coffin and disbelief that this
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:24
			Something which only adds to that disbelief in Allah subhanaw taala and their rejection of the
origin and that is why Allah azza wa jal says we're in Canada Kabira and this is something which is
great meaning it is difficult and severe, except for those whom Allah subhanaw taala has guided.
Allah azza wa jal then continues and he says, Well mankind Allah will you will be or email Iman.
Allah will never let your faith go to waste.
		
00:15:25 --> 00:16:03
			Allah subhanaw taala says that for the believers who worship Allah subhanaw taala with sincerity, to
the best of their ability, trying their utmost to follow the guidance that is given to them in the
Quran, and the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, Allah will never let the reward go
to waste, that Eman, that prayer, that Salah that action, that good deed will never go to waste.
This was said according to the books of Tafseer and the books of sunnah, that some of the companions
when the Qibla was changed in terms of his direction, they came to the prophets of Allah while he
was selling because remember, you have 13 years of Mecca, and then now a year and a half of Medina.
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:40
			So 14 to 15 years, the Muslims are worshipping towards Jerusalem. During that period of 14 or 15
years, or 15 years, a number of the companions have passed away companions who lived in Makkah that
died. By the there were a number of Muslims that passed away, they were tortured, or they passed
away, maybe out of natural causes, or whatever the case was, they were muslims passed away. So the
Companions some of them said, O Messenger of Allah, what about our brothers, who for all of their
lives, that you worship towards Jerusalem, and now we're saying that you can no longer worship that
way you must worship another way. Allah azza wa jal says that Allah will never let their faith go to
		
00:16:40 --> 00:17:17
			waste. Allah subhanaw taala is all just, he's all merciful. He is the most generous and kind
subhanaw taala. So Allah azza wa jal from his justice is that he doesn't allow those people who did
their utmost and best at that time, that was the ruling at that time the command was to follow
Jerusalem. So just because it was abrogated after the death doesn't mean that all of the actions are
rendered null and void. Rather Allah subhanaw taala preserves that. And that is why the believer has
to learn their religion to the best of their ability. But if you find, for example, sometimes as you
do that in certain parts of the world, or maybe for some of us, our grandparents, maybe because of
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:53
			the, the old age, because they were maybe an educated, they had a certain understanding of certain
things not knowing any better, and not being able to find or research or ask anyone that would give
them true knowledge. They may have done certain practices, Allah knows best their affairs, Perhaps
Allah will forgive them, because they did what they thought was best. And that was the ability
that's all that they could do. And Allah azza wa jal doesn't allow people's faith just to go because
of them trying their best on the utmost of Allah azza wa jal says, in a number of places in the
Quran, law you can live for Allah who never sin in Laos, Allah does not place upon a person a
		
00:17:53 --> 00:18:32
			burden, more than that which they can make. That's the best of your ability. It's okay. And Allah
subhanaw taala says here likewise for these people, Allah does not let your faith go to waste. And
this is a beautiful verse because it shows therefore the beauty of Eman if you have strong Eman and
you worship Allah azza wa jal even if there comes a time in your life, when you turn away from Allah
shaytaan overpowers you, your desires overcome you. You find moments in your life when you've turned
away from Allah azza wa jal and you become engaged in sin. Allah subhanaw taala will cherish that
Eman that you had at one point in time. And perhaps from time to time you will remember Allah, you
		
00:18:32 --> 00:19:11
			will be reminded of Allah, you will feel that pull in your heart towards Allah subhanaw taala. And
by Allah's blessing, and through your own actions of Toba. Allah subhanaw taala opens up a doorway
back to him a doorway for you back to him subhanaw taala so the believer never should never should
should never think that the Eman is insignificant. You should never belittle or think that there is
something small. You're the man that you have in your heart, Allah azza wa jal doesn't allow that
faith to go to waste if you are sincere, and truly wanting to worship Allah subhanaw taala and that
is one that sort of concludes this verse by saying in Allah been nurse yulara O for Rahim for indeed
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:38
			Allah is Most Compassionate and Most Merciful, towards the medieval, the believer, Allah azza wa jal
is extremely compassionate and merciful towards the believer, Allah azza wa jal guides people and he
helps them and he opens up the doors of God to the men he showers His blessings upon them. And then
after they've done the good deeds, Allah azza wa jal allows them to show praise or to give praise to
Allah and to thank him and then Allah subhanaw taala from his mercy, who rewards them for all of
that which they do as well.
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:46
			And the following verse, Allah azza wa jal says in verse number 144, for the naratriptan Luba HCA,
		
00:19:47 --> 00:19:59
			if Allah no one Leanna Kathleen Burlington, Baja many times have we seen you on Muhammad Sallallahu
How do you send them turn your face towards the heaven? So we are turning you towards the direct
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:34
			Shouldn't the Qibla that pleases you? Because the prophets of Allah what He was sending from his
Adam, from his etiquette with Allah subhanaw taala is that he wouldn't demand because the Prophet of
Allah is a prophet of Allah, a messenger of Allah despite his status, he doesn't have the right to
demand from Allah doesn't have the right to to impose upon Allah the laws that Allah azza wa jal
legislates but the prophets of Allah Allah, Allah will send them along and wish and hope that Allah
azza wa jal would change the direction of the qibla, towards the Kaaba in Mecca. And there are a
number of reasons for this. The prophets have been wanting this number one, because the Jews and the
		
00:20:34 --> 00:21:06
			Christians would claim that the Muslims are an extension of them. They're trying to follow them.
They're trying to imitate them, because they're following mushiya de la casa, they're following way
to knock this. So therefore, they're just trying to follow us as well. And at the same time, the
Quraysh would say, How can this person who claims to venerate the karma, venerate Ibrahim Ali said
I'm venerate everything to do with the Hajj and the Haram and is in mourning the Kaaba and he's
facing another direction. So on both sides, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam wanted to show
the Muslim kin, all the other Jews and the Christians rather that is not someone who's just
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:43
			imitating their ways and their practices, and at the same time show the courage and by extension,
also the Jews and the Christians because they follow Ibrahim Ali Sanam, or they claim to follow the
original Ibrahim Ali CERAM to show all of them that he will face the karma which is the house that
was built by Ibrahim Ali Islam and the first house of Allah azza wa jal established upon the earth.
And so Allah subhanaw taala gives him the command to change and face the, the Qibla you know, the
Sunnah, a number of Hadith that speak about how the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam changed the
direction of the Qibla towards the Kaaba. And so as that message was being passed throughout the
		
00:21:43 --> 00:22:16
			different Muslim communities in Mecca, one of the companions went to the people of Masjid Oba It is
set in according to some durations and in other generations, it is said it is other than the people
of the machine. And it may be possible that it happened on more than one occasion because the
Companions would go out to the different parts of Medina and give that message. So it's possible
that it could have happened on more than one occasion. They came across one of the massages with the
people are playing and they already started playing and in simulations and they said there is a lot
of prayer, or the series astral prayer, and they're facing Jerusalem because that's what they know.
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:53
			They're told no revelation has come and unanimous face to karma. And in the prayer, they change the
direction and they follow the karma. That is the difference between the test of iman, that Allah
azza wa jal was telling us that the believers and how they adopt the commands of Allah subhanaw
taala willingly and submit with that question, and those people who will be foolish and they will
criticize and they will question and they will choose not to accept. So Allah azza wa jal says, who
have cultural Masjidul haram 10 You will face in the direction of Al Masjid Al haram, which is in
Mecca, or how you feel my Uncle Tom, fellow Joe Helcom, shutaura. And wherever you may be, turn your
		
00:22:53 --> 00:23:27
			face towards it to the Muslim wherever we are when we pray, unless it is an optional prayer. And you
know, as we know that there are some rulings concerning optional praise if you're traveling and so
on. But generally speaking, we always face the karma. We always face the Qibla wherever we are in
the world, you're in Australia, you're in the UK, you're in Saudi Arabia itself, or you are all the
way in Brazil, wherever you are, you will look and face towards the Qibla and you will worship Allah
subhanaw taala we're in the Levina Auteuil keytab and I Ala Moana and the whole hakomi Rob, be him
when Allah will be laughing in the
		
00:23:28 --> 00:24:03
			maroon Allah subhanaw taala says and indeed those who are given the Scripture know with certainty,
that it is the truth from the Lord. And indeed Allah is not unaware of that which they do. And they
know that this is what Allah subhanaw taala has commanded. They know that what the prophets of
Allah, why do you see them as what is the truth, they know that the revelation of the Quran is true,
but they themselves choose to ignore this, and they make an issue of it with regards to the
believers. It is because of their disbelief, because of how much and how far they have rejected the
Quran, and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that they choose to disregard all of these
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:45
			commands of Allah subhanaw taala and that is one large origin. It says in the next verse in verse
145, while in a Teton Lavina O'Toole Kitab equally, Team matter be rocky Bella check 123 Bella to
whom warmer Babu whom bitter beer in Bella turbo, even if you were to bring every proof to those who
are given the Scripture, they would never follow your Qibla they will never follow your description,
because they're rejecting Allah azza wa jal, they're rejecting the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam and the message that he's brought. So therefore why would they accept something as small as
the Qibla change? they've rejected bigger issues. And so therefore, because of how entrenched they
		
00:24:45 --> 00:24:59
			are in their disbelief, if every sign of Allah was to come, they still wouldn't believe. And we see
examples of this throughout the Quran. Doesn't Allah azza wa jal send to Pharaoh for example, sign
after sign after sign? And still you can't believe he can't accept that these
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:37
			These are not signs that can possibly come by human hands, the rivers of blood, the frogs, the
locusts, all of these the staff turning into a serpent and devouring the magic of the source. All of
this is from Allah subhanaw taala. But he rejects it all because of his disbelief. Likewise, Allah
Azza did the same with the coalition, these people who are entrenched in their disbelief, not truly
seeking guidance, even if every sign was to come to them, they will never follow your Qibla and you
are messenger of Allah will never follow their Qibla because you know that what Allah azza wa jal
wants, and you know, that which is pleasing to Allah subhanho wa Taala That one won't be terribly
		
00:25:37 --> 00:25:58
			good later town. No, do any of them follow the direction of one another? So the Quraysh of Baca do
not follow this clip love the Jews and the Christians and the Jews and the Christians don't want to
talk about love. For example, the Hindus and the Hindus don't necessarily follow the Qibla over
there, everyone has their direction. And so therefore, why are they criticizing you on Messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in terms of your belief?

			de magia terminal really me in NACA either let me know Valley mean? Allah azza wa jal concludes this
verse and therefore this page by saying, if you are messenger of Allah to follow their desires,
after the knowledge brought to you, then indeed you will be from amongst the wrong meaning that you
can't just ignore what Allah azza wa jal has said. To follow your desires to want to for example,
change parts of your religion or to forego certain aspects of Allah's commands, in order to please
them will be something which is incorrect and will be something which is displeasing to Allah
subhanaw taala and Allah azza wa jal says to do so would be good mean that you are from the wrong
		
00:26:42 --> 00:27:18
			doers. And so therefore, Allah azza wa jal tells us as the believers in Allah azza wa jal, the
believers of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, that we are people who should turn to Allah
subhanaw taala in worship, and we should accept everything that Allah azza wa jal has given to us by
way of His laws and His Sharia, and that Allah azza wa jal can do as he pleases, subhana wa Tada.
And sometimes therefore, the shows that certain commands of this religion can be testing for certain
groups of people, even amongst the Muslims. Certain things people find it very difficult to accept
certain parts of Islam today there are Muslims will say, I can generally accept Islam and its laws,
		
00:27:18 --> 00:27:55
			but I can't really accept inheritance laws, for example, or I can't really accept the sister will
say, the rules of hijab and JimBob or the brother will say i constant accept certain rules with
regards to, for example, my dress and my appearance and what have you. These are issues that are
similar to the Scribbler godless story that we have, in the sense that the believer is the one who
submits fully as we mentioned, those companions, who in the prayer change direction, as opposed to
those who question and will oppose and will criticize and will not be able to accept that is a sign
of wiki man, but the one who truly follows Allah, the One who truly follows and accepts the prophets
		
00:27:55 --> 00:28:24
			with our messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, they will always submit willingly to Allah subhanaw
taala because they know that Allah azza wa jal and what He has commanded contain wisdom and guidance
and they contain ultimate benefit for the people who follow that guidance. May Allah azza wa jal
makers, from the people who accept guidance and willingly following it, submitting to Allah subhanaw
taala and his commands BarakAllahu li wa salam ala Nabina Muhammad, what are the early he will be
the engineering center? Allah He Bismillah
