sharika Allahu La Nina will ask you then we should do and in the era Muhammad Abdul Hora pseudo
Mustafa I mean Allahumma salli wa sallim wa barik ala Abdic also become Muhammad wa ala alihi wa
sahbihi Intermarine but welcome to another episode of How to see your page by page and inshallah to
Allah today we are on page 55 of the Quran which is in surah Al Imran the third just in the last
episode, we began the story of the Family of Imran And we mentioned in the story that Allah azza wa
		

			jal honored Imran and his wife and Allah azza wa jal chose them and selected them for their piety
and for their virtue and their righteousness. And Allah subhanaw taala tells us to do either the
wife of Imran me that she became pregnant with a child thinking that it will be a son, and that you
will dedicate him in the service of Allah azza wa jal, and how Allah subhanaw taala decreed that the
child will not be a male or boy, but rather it would be a girl and that girl would be none other
than Maria Maria Salatu was Salam. Maria Maria Suriname would grow up as being a righteous woman, a
woman of rabada worship of devotion to Allah subhanaw taala, a woman of piety, but her parents died
		

			while she was relatively young and so she came under the guardianship of her uncle through marriage
as a karate slam, the Prophet of Allah subhanaw taala is a courier it is sunnah notice that Allah
azza wa jal honored Morgan, and one of the ways that he honored her and this is where we ended last
week's lesson or last episode lesson. One of the ways that you would honor her is that she would
have provision that was out of the ordinary for that period of time. And so he would see her with
this provision. And when he saw this, she was worshipping Allah azza wa jal, he asked her, where did
this come from? And she replied that it is from Allah. Indeed, Allah provides for whomsoever He
		

			wills, without any account. Allah can give to whomsoever He wills, or whatever He wills whenever he
wills, and that is the power of Allah subhanaw taala. And that is why the believer is told that when
it comes to this issue of dua, never despair, never despair from the, from the response of Allah
azza wa jal and his answer, just because Allah didn't answer you today, or tomorrow or this week, or
this month or this year, doesn't mean that Allah azza wa jal will answer your DUA. Allah in his
ultimate wisdom and his ultimate knowledge, Allah azza wa jal has decreed for you something, whether
that be an answer to the drive that you want, or to answer that you are in a way that you can't
		

			expect. And so Allah azza wa jal has everything planned out for us and the believers trust in the
decree of Allah subhanahu wa taala. So when the karate salaam saw this, and he was old in age, his
wife's old in age, their whole life they wanted and wished it may drive for a child, but that child
was yet to come. And usually, once you've hit a certain age, once you reached a certain level of, of
weakness in your body and you've become infirm, due to old age and so on, you lose any hope for
having a child, especially a woman who goes past the age of being able to bear a child. But when
Abraham insecurities Salam saw the sign from Allah subhanaw taala, that he turned to Allah azza wa
		

			jal, and Allah azza wa jal tells us the dirt that he made in verse 38 He says, subhanaw taala
bIllahi min ash shaytani R Rajim Hoonah Anika De Anza curry Yeah, Rob ba ba na Rob B Hubballi. Mila
don't carry a topo EBA in Naka, semi are
		

			there and then Zekeriya pre to his Lord saying Oh Allah, from your grace grant meet virtues of
spring. Indeed you hear every prayer. So Allah azza wa jal says it's a karate slam turn immediately
to Allah subhanaw taala. And he said that Oh ALLAH just as you have provided Madame in this way with
something out of the ordinary as some of this qualitative seals said that he or she had the fruit
the provisions of the winter, summer time and the provisions of summer winter time. Just as you gave
us something that is out of season, give to me a chance also out of season for us meaning me and my
wife, because of our age and our condition. In NACA semi or dua, you are the one who answers and
		

			here's all do as Allah azza wa jal in verse 39. He says, For now that 20 Man, eager to who aka Imani
Usili, fill me Robbie nulla ueber Shahrukh and Allah you Bashir Rokeby Yeah, Musa decon. Mica Lima
team in Allah He was a Yida will say you don't know how sumulong want to be Amina saw the in the
angels call out to him was he was standing playing in his Michelob in his area of
		

			For a sanctuary and they said, oh well indeed Allah gives to you the glad tidings of a child by the
name of Yahia or John in biblical terms, confirming a word from Allah, He will be a noble and chased
a prophet and one of the righteous.
		

			Allah subhanaw taala therefore says to us that Allah azza wa jal responded to the house Zakaria
despite his old age and his wife's old age, despite their physical condition, despite his wife,
having passed the age of being able to bear children, Allah azza wa jal by miracle of him subhanaw
taala he gave to them this child and he gave to them a child with a unique name that no one had had
before us Allah azza wa jal mentioned under the vessel when we come to it Inshallah, in Surah
margam, and that this child was the name by name by the name of Yaya and Allah azza wa jal is the
one who named him. Allah says by the angel say that indeed Allah gives you the glad tidings of a
		

			child. Yeah, here. Musa McAdams Minh Allah, He is someone it is a confirmation of the word of Allah,
He will be noble and chaste a prophet and from the righteous. So therefore Allah azza wa jal, not
only gave to second year at this time a child, but the child that would grow up to become a Prophet
from the prophets of Allah subhana wa Tada. And this is also some of the scholars that received
mentioned one of the virtues of Maria Maria Sena, because what inspires a curiosity Islam to make
this to turn to Allah again to continue to hoping Allah azza wa jal is mercy is what he sees in the
lesson that he benefits from Medea Marty has set in. And so the people of righteousness the people
		

			of piety are not those who only keep that righteousness to themselves and limited to themselves, but
they're the ones who benefit others with it as well. They are the ones who help and benefit others,
as the Prophet says on Allahu alayhi wa sallam that the best of you are those who are most
beneficial towards others. And so righteous This is not just about me, and myself and my family or
limited to my circle. It is about spreading it and helping others and spreading it as best as you
can towards others to the best of your ability in a way that is pleasing to Allah subhanaw taala
that is Maria Maria Sadam does does the karate slam is inspired by her, he turns to Allah azza wa
		

			jal knowing Allah Subhana Allah has power in his bounty, and Allah azza wa jal gives to him a profit
from the prophets of Allah Yadi his Salatu was Salam.
		

			Allah azza wa jal in verse number 14, he tells us Zachary already said I was amazed by this, amazed
that he would have a child in such old age, Barnaby and Cooney, who Nambu Bella and El Kiba one bra
tip Bonica Nicola, who your final Manisha in verse number 14, Allah azza wa jal says so then
Zakaria, Ali Salam. He says, Oh Allah, how can I have a son? When I'm so old and my wife is barren?
The angel reply they will be so free indeed Allah does whatever He wills the karate slam is not
rejecting Allah's blessing. He is not discounting Allah azza wa jal is favor upon him. But rather he
is amazed because this is something out of the ordinary similar to, as we mentioned in the story of
		

			Ibrahim, are you salatu salam. Then when he brought him out, he said I was given a son in old age.
He also is surprised the wife of or the wife of Ibrahim Ali slamming the story of the mother of his
happ adding Salatu Salam is surprised that she would have a child and only Allah azza wa jal says
that she says when she was given the glad tidings by the angels, early do Jews were heard that
Bernie che ha, should I have a child that now that I'm an old woman Baron in fertile and my husband
is also an old man. So they're amazed by this ability, oh, this this this instance of this incident
is taking place, they are not rejecting Allah azza wa jal power and instability. So likewise is
		

			Korea Ali Salam, he made the DUA he longed for a child he wanted a child. And so when Allah subhanaw
taala blessed him with that child, he was amazed, amazed that he will be given this blessing. And so
Allah subhanaw taala can grant your favors or your do as whenever he rolls never despair from
Allah's mercy, Adobe from amongst those people who, despite what everything else in society may say,
or how everything seems to be in society, you think that Allah azza wa jal will respond to you.
Allah can defy the laws of nature or the laws of the universe because Allah controls them. Allah
azza wa jal can defy the norms of what people may expect and expectations because Allah azza wa jal
		

			transcends them. Allah is above them and he controls them and has power over everything. Subhana wa
Tada. So he says, Oh Allah, will I have a child now that I am old, my wife is barren, Allah azza wa
jal responds to the angels Allah does as he pleases. Allah subhanaw taala simply has to say Quinn
for your Khun bee, and it is so there is nothing beyond Allah's power. There is nothing beyond
Allah's ability subhanaw taala there is nothing that Allah azza wa jal cannot achieve. And that is
why whether there is a child that a person wants or wealth that they need or a sickness that they
		

			Need to be cured from or he may be for example, as in the time of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam that the Muslims are weak and few in number and they are facing a formidable greater,
stronger army. Allah azza wa jal has the ability to do as he pleases Subhana wa Tada. But to have
that level of conviction and Eman and trust in Allah is something which is extremely rare and
precious. The difference between me and you and the likes of ZACHARY And Miriam Alikum. Sanam is
that I will Eman is weak. Our trust in Allah is not full and complete our certainty in Allah azza wa
jal, its abilities and his promises is not as strong as it should be. So we make to iron Yes, we
		

			kind of know like Allah can do what he wants, and yet the theory is there, but we don't really feel
it and believe it, we don't behave with that same conviction. And because we don't our dua is
weakened. And because the DUA is weakened, it's not necessarily responded to in the same way, or
with the same manner in the way that Allah azza wa jal is mentioning here in the story of Zachary
Yadi Salatu was set up. And so that shows that though it is not just lip service, not just about
you, holding up your hands and making dua saying the words it is about the man in the heart that
feeding that other trust in Allah subhanaw taala and the love of Allah azza wa jal and the true need
		

			and poverty that you show before Allah subhanaw taala and Allah azza wa jal will mention elsewhere
in the Quran the story in in slightly more detail. For example, at the beginning of Surah Maryam
Allah azza wa jal again touches upon the story of Zachary salatu salam and the birth of his son.
Yeah, yeah. And one of the things that we know from that portion or that telling of the story, is
that Allah azza wa jal tells us this is a curiosity Islam feared for his people. He feared for many
slightly that there would be no one to continue his role, his job, his mission, after his passing
away, and that was one of the reasons why he wants to dare setup and so Allah azza wa jal looks at
		

			the need and the poverty of a person that you man and their sincerity, and then Allah azza wa jal is
the one who grants all things subhanaw taala for he is
		

			the one who hears and responds to all invocations and supplications.
		

			In verse what you want Allah azza wa jal then tells us that Zakaria on Eastern Time, said to Allah
burn out of the journey,
		

			Bala took a letter to Ken Lehmann, NASA theta theta Yameen. In La Hamza was co Rebecca Cathy Ron was
a bee bee larvae will Ebert.
		

			Allah subhana wa Tada says that Zakaria it slammed and said, Oh Allah, give to me a sign. You've
promised me this child. This child will be a prophet of Allah azza wa jal, it is out of the ordinary
I am old, my wife is old. Oh Allah give to me a sign. Give to me a sign of that which you are
promising. And this is a sign that would allow him to increase in his in his contentment in his Eman
in his blessing of Allah subhanaw taala the difference between the signs of the prophets that they
asked from Allah azza wa jal, and the signs that are asked by the disbelievers is that the
disbelievers are looking for an excuse to reject an excuse to disbelieve an excuse to ridicule the
		

			message of Allah subhanaw taala. Whereas the believers when they ask for a sign is because they
already strong in Eman, but they want to increase in contentment. They want to have even more reason
to be happy and join us at the signs of Allah azza wa jal. So the example that we mentioned, for
example, in Surah, Baqarah, when Ibrahim Ali Islam asks for Allah sign of how he brings the dead
back to life, the story of the birds and the mountains and so on, those are signs that are asked by
the prophets of Allah and you will see a number of examples of this throughout the Quran. Not
because they want to reject or they have doubt or they don't really believe they already accept and
		

			believe and they're strong in Eman, but they want to increase in a level of certainty and
contentment of the heart. And that is exactly what Zachary Ernie Sarang is doing here as well. He's
not rejecting Allah signs. He's not saying that he doesn't want the child. He's not disbelieving.
He's not doubtful of Allah's power and ability. But he wants to rejoice in this amazing blessing
from Allah azza wa jal. So Allah sent for me asign
		

			Allah azza wa jal responded and he said your sign is that you will not communicate with anyone for
three days, except by gestures, you will not be able to speak for three days Allah to kill the
Manasa you will not be able to speak for three days. That is your sign. So the tongue is there, the
mouth is there, the lips are there, everything's there. The difference is that Allah azza wa jal
withhold will withhold speech from you. How is this a sign? Just as Allah azza wa jal can grant you
a child in old age, Allah subhanaw taala can take his speech from someone who has all of the
physical abilities to speak everything that's there in terms of the organs, the limbs, all of the
		

			things that are needed, and this person speak every single day all day. They have no problem
speaking all of a sudden, is taken away from them. Allah can take what he pleases. Allah can give
what he pleases, Subhan Allah to Allah for three days, this will be your sign but at the same time,
what Rebecca cathedra was said Bill or she will it car and
		

			At the same time remember your Lord often celebrate His glory in the evening and in the night so be
a person of vicar of Allah azza wa jal make the call of Allah subhanaw taala make the Smith said
hamdulillah say subhanallah. So as a courier, it is time to sign was that he wouldn't be able to
talk. But at the same time, he can still make a vicar of Allah azza wa jal, and that is from the
completeness of the sign to show those people because sometimes it can happen that someone's seen
today and they become blind tomorrow. Some affliction affects them and some ailment comes to them.
And that's it sight is taken away from them, or someone's speaking today, but tomorrow, they lose
		

			the ability to speak, and that just becomes their normal life or part of their life for the rest of
their existence. Allah azza wa jal is showing here. The way that this is a sign is as a karate slam
has the ability to speak, and he can still speak because he's making dhikr of Allah subhanaw taala
he's glorifying Allah azza wa jal, he's remembering Allah subhanaw taala. But when it comes to every
other type of conversation, conversing with other speaking to them asking about every other thing,
he can't speak anymore. So therefore, the signage is seen. It's very powerful, powerful and clear to
everyone. He has the ability, he can see certain things, but he can't communicate except by gestures
		

			for those three days as a sign from Allah subhanho wa taala. So Allah is telling the story of the
Family of Imran, as you can see, we have the Family of Imran And the daughter, Maria Maria Sarah,
but that is also linked closely to the story of these two other prophets of Allah Allah him salatu
salam and that is the Korea and yeah, the Korea and yeah, and that essentially makes them because
Allah azza wa jal will now speak to us and we will continue we will go back and continue with the
story of Madame but essentially make Zakaria A cousin or something. Yeah, here a cousin, Teresa
salatu salam Yahia and Risa are cousins to one another, for that reason. And so yeah, here and Risa
		

			are prophets of Allah azza wa jal, both of them live during the same time period, and they will
relate to one another, they will cousins to one another. And that is why the prophets on Allah while
he was telling me he said that when he went on the night journey, and he came to the heavens where
he met various prophets, and one of them in one narration, and he said that he met the two of them
together, yeah, and Risa and he said that I met the two cousins amongst the prophets. Yeah, here
Risa. I became a Salatu was Salam. Allah azza wa jal in verse number 42. He says, subhana wa Tada.
Going back now to the story of Meriam with palatin Mela, eager to Yama Yama in Allah Azza Tofurky
		

			what? Aha Rocky was TopHat Jana and Isa Ilaria. They mean, the angel said to Maria Maria Salam or
Madame indeed Allah has chosen you and made you pure, and he has truly chosen you above all women.
		

			Allah subhanaw taala Anna goes back to the study of money and it is Sam and Allah azza wa jal were
mentioned to us also a part of the story, the virgin birth that she gives to that he's already
started to set up and Allah azza wa jal mentions here in verse number 42. That the angels when they
came to the carrier when they came to Medina matter you sent him because they Tron now, as Madame
grows up, we know that the angels will come, and they will give her the glad tidings of a child that
she will have, but she's never been married, never been touched by a man. And so it is a virgin
birth from the signs and miracles of ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada and Surah Maryam Allah azza wa jal goes
		

			into more detail concerning the story perhaps Allah azza wa jal will give to us an indication of
what took place, and that is the angels when they came to Allah azza wa jal one of the things that
the sitter's Allah mentioned says pero Tara, in verse number 42, is that Allah azza wa jal told her
that Allah subhanaw taala had chosen her,
		

			chosen her and honored her, just as her mother had made dua, that Allah azza wa jal acceptor that
Allah subhanaw taala allow her to dedicate her life in His service, in his worship, in his in
submission to Him Subhana wa Tada and Allah azza wa jal says for taka betta Allah azza wa jal
accepted that Maria Maria salaam into his service, this is the way that she will serve him. Allah
azza wa jal selected her water hierarchy and you purified you, meaning she's pure from the sins of
Xena and from the sins of those things that are viewed and those things are under fitting for a
woman of modesty and chastity and nobility. Allah azza wa jal has purified that because as Elijah
		

			Joel mentioned, in the passage, we will come to insolate. Madame, one of the things that people will
have is start to cast aspersions concerning her honor, they will start to have doubts concerning her
honor, because now she has a child where the child come from She has no husband, she has no man
that's known to be with her. And so therefore whether this child come from and so Allah azza wa jal
flees from those, those assert assertions Freeza from those insinuations from those claims, Allah
Azza says that she's the woman of purity, pure in her spirit in her soul in her Ibadah in her
belief, pure in terms
		

			of deeds and actions was to faqih Allah and he said I let me know from amongst the women of the word
Allah azza wa jal has given you a great honor. And that is why the prophets of Allah Allah will send
them told us in the famous Hadith, that from the women are the greatest of women that Allah azza wa
jal allowed for them to reach a level of completeness was Miriam NAMA, the daughter of Enron. Her
name is Maria bint Imran, the daughter of Enron and asiyah, the wife of Pharaoh and Khadija Radi
Allahu anhu, the first wife of our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So Allah azza wa jal honored
her and Allah subhanaw taala favored her. Allah azza wa jal in verse 43. He says, Yeah, Maria
		

			mcConathy, the rugby he was to the world curry Moroccan. So therefore Maria be devout to your Lord,
prostrate yourself in worship, and bow down with those who bow down and pray to the Lord. Allah
subhanaw taala that says that Allah azza wa jal honored her. This under doesn't mean that when Allah
Allah is one of his slaves and his servants, that they don't have to worship Allah, that they turn
away from Allah. If you look at the example of the prophets and the masala to send the example of
the companions or the Allahu Allah, that Allah honored and favored with knowledge, and with being
able to be companions or companionship of the prophets of Allah Wa, salam, it doesn't mean that they
		

			did less Why did they did more? They didn't turn away but rather they tend towards Allah subhanaw
taala so Allah azza wa jal, honestly Saudi cinemas mother, madame, and that increases her in worship
she spent a life of even more devotion even more such that even more record worshiping Allah azza wa
jal turning to Allah subhanho wa taala.
		

			In the final verse that we will take today because the final verse on the page, we will leave for
the next lesson to connect inshallah to Allah in terms of the story, but Allah azza wa jal, it says
in verse 44, there are the coming
		

			Elohim you know, he like well, America today him in your own home a new home yet follow Maruyama.
lahmacun today him in the Dr. Simone. This is an account of things beyond your knowledge that will
reveal to you a Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Allah azza wa jal says these stories of
Zakariya yeah Madame Imran his family, you will never have known or messenger of Allah. You're not
from Benny Swahili you're not from that place you're not from you don't know these stories. These
aren't things that you're familiar with. And even if some people are familiar with the general
story, these details, you will never have known there from the science or from the knowledge of the
		

			Unseen, that Allah azza wa jal has given to you as a way of showing the truthfulness of the message
that you have bought. You will not present he said subhanaw taala. You will not present meaning or
messenger of Allah human there when they cast lots to see which one of them will take charge of mme.
So when my parents died, the community came together and they said, Who's going to look after this
girl now She's an orphan girl. And different people came with different claims someone's family
members or mother, friends, animals from the community, all of them want to take care of the girl
and service to an orphan. And from those people is a curiosity serum. They agree that the fairest
		

			way would to draw lots, you cast lots and you draw them and the one who's not is drawn will take
custodianship of. So that is what they did. And it was the Korea or Islam Allah is saying, You How
did you know that? That's what they did. You went there. We're telling you this is what they did.
Well, my Punta de him with Dr. Simone. And you want to do when they argued meaning as to who will
take custodianship and guardianship of her. And so these are stories that Allah azza wa jal gives us
from the Quran. They are a sign of the truthfulness of the of the messenger of allah sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, and the revelation of the Quran. But they're also stories that contain so many
		

			amazing lessons and benefits to see and to show to us the power of Allah azza wa jal and the lessons
that we can benefit in terms of Eman and as I said, insha Allah Allah in the next episode, we will
continue with these verses and the story of Madame Lagarde has Salatu was Salam. So with that
inshallah Tada We conclude today's lesson BarakAllahu li Walakum wa salam ala Nabina Muhammad Anwar
the early he will be sharing with cinema on a compliment Allah he will Baraka you Bismillah
