			Allah subhanaw taala in these three verses and this is not continuing one from the lecture that we
had last time, which spoke about the situation of the Arabs in general and duration in particular,
before the coming and the birth of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the political, religious
socio economic situation that the Arabs used to reside in.
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:37
			In the Quran, Allah subhanho wa Taala doesn't allude much and doesn't mention much of the early
years of the life of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam the early years referring to the first
40 odd years of his life, before he became a prophet of Allah,
		
00:01:38 --> 00:02:21
			those 40 years in the books of sila, you will find narrations and you will find many generations and
you find an outline and details concerning those 40 years where the profits on a low while he was
selling was born, how he grew up his marriage to Khadija rhodiola Juana and a number of other
incidents that took place in those 40 years. But in the Quran, the Book of Allah subhanho wa Taala.
And this is very interesting, Allah subhanho wa Taala. Perhaps only these three verses that I quoted
to you and recited from Surah to Doha, they are the only mention of the early years of the life of
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Nowhere else in the oramo very rarely, anywhere else in the
		
00:02:21 --> 00:03:02
			Quran is mentioned made of those early years from the life of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam. And there may be many reasons for this and Allah subhanho wa Taala knows best. But perhaps
from those reasons is because those 14 years are not really important in terms of the context of the
Quran. Because the Quran came to establish the tawheed of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And he came to
establish all of the principles and all of the things that are important in order to achieve that
objective and that goal, the tawheed of Allah subhanho wa Taala and so therefore, those first 40
years because there was no Islam, there was no Nobu, where there was no Prophethood there was no
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:45
			message that was given to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam there was no and they are less
important. And so therefore Allah subhanho wa Taala doesn't really mention them, he skips them by in
the Quran. Allah subhanho wa Taala perhaps from the other reasons and wisdoms that they are not
mentioned, is because Allah subhanho wa Taala does not want to detract from the focus of the
remaining 23 years of the life of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam because there is those 23
years that we as Muslims, as an oma, those are the 23 years that we need to focus on concentrate on
what took place from the moment that he became a prophet of Allah, until the moment that he would
		
00:03:45 --> 00:04:24
			pass away salallahu alayhi wa sallam, these three verses in Surah to Doha, and there is a context
behind them. And the first five or so verses of surah, todo Javi were mentioned in another lecture
insha Allah tala because they are to do with a whole different incident. And this is also something
important for us to know just as a side point and one of the benefits studying the book of a large
soldier from the sciences of the Quran. From the sciences of the Quran is a superb mazola the causes
of Revelation, what are the circumstances and the reasons why certain verses were revealed? And also
one of the things that the scholars also tried to do from the sciences of the Quran was that they
		
00:04:24 --> 00:05:00
			tried to establish a chronological order of how the different sources of concern were revealed.
Surah Al Fatiha even though it is the first surah in the Quran, it was not the first one that was
revealed to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam right. As you know, what was the first surah
revealed the crop per acre of this mural because the holla is in the 13th jewels right towards the
end of the Quran. And so the Quran, its current order is chronological. But what some of the
scholars attempted to do was also mentioned to us the chronological order so that we
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:37
			would know. So for example, you saw this mural Baker levy Hall up. Then some of the scholars said
after this came sort of to Parliament solar noon, others said no, it was sort of in more depth than
sort of Muslim men. And so they give the different order of how chronologically the Quran came down
from the earliest revelations in Makkah, in the early period of Islam from the earliest revelations
was sort of to Doha. And the reason why those first five verses of surah to Doha will reveal
Mashallah will mention in a different lecture of forthcoming election insha Allah, they also pertain
to the life and the scene of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam but generally, just very
		
00:05:37 --> 00:06:17
			briefly, they pertain to a time when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam thought that revelation
had ceased, Revelation had stopped, for no apparent reason. And so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam used to seek contentment and used to enjoy receiving the revelation of Allah subhanho wa
Taala. And as you can imagine, just for us to recite upon on when you understand and contemplate the
Quran, the sweetness that you feel, the contentment that you take within your heart, just from being
close to the book of Allah subhanho wa Taala imagine how much more it would be worth those verses to
be revealed upon you directly from Allah subhanho wa Taala. And so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
		
00:06:17 --> 00:07:04
			sallam used to enjoy and look forward and yearn for the Quran to be revealed to him. But a time came
and stopped, seized for a number of days. And then Allah azzawajal revealed those first verses of
surah to Doha. After those first five verses Allah subhana wa Taala to show how the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would never be abandoned by Allah. Allah will never forsake Him, let
alone doing worse than forsaking him hating him or leaving him or abandoning him. Allah subhanaw
taala says alemi aged care team and for our did a lot of find you as an orphan. And then he gave you
shelter. Did you not find you as an orphan referring to what the childhood of the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:52
			wasallam does he not find you as an orphan and give you shelter? What would you rather call ball and
Fada and did you not find you a stray misguided, and he guided you? Baba Jetta Clara Elan for
governor and he did he not find you poor, impoverished, and he made you rich, he gave you provided
for you. These three things that Allah subhanho wa Taala mentioned are the three things are the
three roles that any guardian or parent or carer plays when it comes to their children. For those of
us that have children, our role as parents falls under these three things. Number one, is to give
our children a safe environment, to make sure that they have a good home, to make sure that they
		
00:07:52 --> 00:08:29
			have everything that they could need that is comfortable in their home a place to sleep, make sure
that the house is heated, warm, make sure that they have enough, enough of those things that they
need to make it a comfortable living place. That's the first thing that a parent does. When it comes
to a child, you provide them a suitable and a safe environment from which they can grow. The second
thing that a parent does when it comes to a child is that they give them guidance and advice. When
your child grows up, and they go through especially their formative years when they get old enough
to understand and comprehend. They reach the ages of 789 and then other growing up. That is the time
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:49
			that as a parent to impart your advice on them. Do this, don't do that. Take this option, don't take
that option. We from our parents believe this is better for you, this is not better for you. And you
give advice you try to guide you try to help. And the third thing that a parent does is that they
provide for their children, food,
		
00:08:50 --> 00:09:33
			clothing, money, those things that a child needs in order to grow up and live that life. These are
the roles that are apparent please. Allah subhanaw taala obviously isn't the parent to the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Allah subhanaw taala isn't in that relationship with any of his
creation, for Allah subhanho wa Taala is far above and high and far above all of this. But still if
you look at those three verses, and the three aspects that Allah subhanaw taala mentions, as Allah
azza wa jal cared for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in these three ways. They still fall
under that same remit, and that same type of discussion. Allah subhanho wa Taala is saying that he
		
00:09:33 --> 00:10:00
			is the one forget his father, mother, grandfather, uncle, anyone else before all of them or any of
them. Allah subhanho wa Taala was the one who protected His Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam and
Allah zildjian was the one who guided the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and Allah subhanho wa
Taala was the one who provided for the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam protection provision and
guidance. They
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:42
			came from Allah subhanho wa Taala before any human hand had a role to play in it. So Allah subhanaw
taala tells us and gives us a glimpse at the early years of the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam as Allah says was an orphan. When he was born, his mother
passed away. She died at the age of 39. His mother, his father passed away whilst his mother was
pregnant with him. Amina was pregnant with the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam. His father,
Abdullah died before he was born. And so he grew up or he came into this world he was born as an
orphan. Because in the Arabic language the word year team often means the one who has lost their
		
00:10:42 --> 00:11:22
			father. In English, we normally call an orphan, someone who's lost both parents, but in Arabic, your
team is someone who has lost their father. So even if their mother is alive, they're still
considered to be an orphan. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was born as an orphan, and he
grew up as an orphan, and his mother would die whilst he was only six years old, and then he would
come under the guardianship of his grandfather, Abdullah McCollum, only for two years and he too
would die when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was only eight years old, and then as we
know, he came under the custodianship and the guardianship of his uncle Abu Talib, in those early
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:58
			years wants to his mother was still alive. And this shows how Allah subhanaw taala when he is saying
in this in these verses, that he is the one that gave shelter and protection to the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam is not the way that a parent would give shelter to a child, meaning that
Allah subhanaw taala didn't build for him a house or do anything like a normal parent would do. When
Allah subhanaw taala gave guidance to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, it doesn't mean that
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was upon shirk, because the prophets of Allah even before
they become prophets of Allah are safeguarded from schilke, the safeguarded from that type of evil,
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:36
			but he means that Allah azza wa jal please things before he made his path, easy for him, so that he
would reach that position where eventually Allah would bestow upon him the prophethood and the
message of Islam and Allah azza wa jal provided for him not in the way that a parent would give you
food or drink or clothing, but a larger which are provided for him in Fall greater wings. Allah
subhanho wa Taala plan for him and this is the first thing or one of the first things that we
mentioned in the series when we draw the parallels between the life of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wasallam, and the life of the Prophet Musa alayhis salam, and how a large dogen says in the Quran
		
00:12:36 --> 00:13:18
			concerning the Prophet Musa alayhis salam was a token in FCW. I have chosen you owe Moosa for
myself. Likewise, Alonzo vigil prepared for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam everything. And
we mentioned the story of the digging and the finding of Zamzam and the story of the companions and
the army of the elephants. Allah subhanho wa Taala here is doing the same thing, that even though
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam grew up in difficult circumstances, having lost his father
than he will lose his mother at a young age than his grandfather would also pass when he was still a
young man or still a young boy. Yet Allah subhanho wa Taala protected him, provided for him guided
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:32
			him to the path that he wanted him to follow. subhana wa Tada. larussa withdrawal says that he was
an orphan during that time, and he was an orphan, whilst his mother was still alive. It was the
common practice of the Arabs,
		
00:13:33 --> 00:14:10
			that they would send their children to the desert so that the Bedouins could look after them. And
they would stay in the desert for a year or two. And they would grow up and be educated at the hand
of the Bedouin alums. Why? Because the Bedouin Arabs used to live in the desert. We're known for the
eloquence and the pristine Arabic language. And they were known to follow the ways of the old Arabs.
They didn't live in cities, and they were overcome by the city ways and the way that the city folk
normally live their lives. They used to live on their own, and so the Arabs will send their children
and they will be successful there. And at the same time, they would grow up learning the pristine
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:49
			Arabic language. So as young children, two three years old, this is what they will do for two or
three years. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was no exception. His mother sent him to a
woman by the name of Halima, Saudia haleema became his witness. And she had other children as well.
This was her job, this is what she did. She had other children also that came from different
families, and a group of those children were under her care. In Sahih, Muslim, the hadith of nsep
man he called the Allah one. He says that was the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was in the
care of haleema. And he was playing with one day he was playing with the other boys that were also
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:59
			under the care of that same woman Halima. As they were playing Jubilee rally his salatu salam came
to them in the form of a man and we know from the Quran and we know
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:28
			Authentic Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that Allah has given the angels at times
to take the form of men. They have that ability. They can come and they can appear as men, on more
than one on more than one occasion. After Islam the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam met gibreel
and Sheba his Salaam was in the form of a man. Anyway, gvrd Sanam came in the form of a man to these
group of children, these boys once they were playing,
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:42
			and he came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he picked him out. And he came to him, and
he made him lie down, I placed him on the ground. And then he opened up his chest, and he took his
heart out.
		
00:15:43 --> 00:16:25
			And then he said, and he removed from his heart, something black, a black substance, and he said how
the how blue shape Bunnymen. This is the portion that shaper normally would have had in your heart,
because we know as the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that shape and runs in our veins, like
blood runs in our veins. And every single one of us has a shape on that whispers to us. So the
professor seldom has been told he Blairism is a boy, he doesn't really understand. But he says, This
is the portion that chipin would have had from you. And then he took the heart of the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam, and he washed it in the water of Zamzam. And then he placed it back into
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:27
			his chest, and he sealed him up.
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:49
			Those boys who saw this, obviously they see a man just taking one of their friends, placing them on
the ground, ripping up chairs, taking out his heart. It's traumatic at the best of times, they go
and run to the wetness, their mother Halima and they say to her that Mohammed is dead, someone just
came and killed him.
		
00:16:51 --> 00:17:31
			In the Mohammed and Mohammed is dead, someone's killed him. So she's obviously worried because this
is a child under her care. She ran and she found that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was
alive and well, but he was pale. Something that happened but she didn't know. And the only thing
that she had to go by was the testimonies of four and five year old boys, six, seven year old boys.
So she became afraid and she took him back to his mother and she said, I don't want your son with me
anymore. I can't look after him, take him back. And so he was returned to his mother and a sibling
manic rhodiola guanine that unoriginal sorry Muslim, he said that I could still see and this is many
		
00:17:31 --> 00:18:14
			years later unassuming Malik only came into contact with the prophet of Salaam in Medina after so
talking at least 4050 years later, unassuming Malik says that I could still see on the chest of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the marking of where his chest was open, and then sealed again.
I could still see the mark on the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam now there are many wisdoms from
the story and many reasons why this incident took place and from them and alara soldier knows best.
But from them is that Allah subhanho wa Taala from that, from that very early moment in the life of
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, Allah was preparing him to become a prophet, Allah azza wa
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:55
			jal was preparing him for revelation and preparing him for the message of Islam. And this is why
when a large visual says that I found your way you will not an orphan. And a large soldier is the
one who gave you protection, where you will not miss guide and Allah is the one who guided you. Will
you not poor impoverished and a large student is the one who provided for you. It doesn't just mean
in materialistic terms, doesn't just mean in terms of sustenance of food and drink, and the way that
we would normally look after our children. But rather Allah subhanho wa Taala is saying that a large
majority is looking after him in far greater ways. Allah subhanaw taala his care and protection for
		
00:18:55 --> 00:19:38
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam began many, many years before he received revelation and he
became a prophet of Allah. And so Allah subhanho wa Taala prepared him for Prophethood one of the
other reasons and wisdoms behind the story and behind this incident is so that many years later on
when the prophet SAW Selim did become a prophet of Allah, the orange would have no excuse to reject
Him, because they wouldn't be able to fault his character. And that's why from an early age, the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was safeguarded from sinning and safeguarded from evil, the evil
acts that the people of grace would normally perform, and he was safeguarded from shock. Because he
		
00:19:38 --> 00:20:00
			for the first 40 years of his life, he had performed sharp worshipped idols, worship those Gods
alongside Orosz, then all of a sudden one day, turns up and says, No, that's wrong. This is
something which doesn't make sense. How can you worship these gods? Perhaps those people would have
said to him, but you used to do exactly the same thing. For 40 3040 odd years you've done exactly
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:33
			To be the same thing, and now all of a sudden, you've had some light bulbs switch on, they could
have said this to him. So Allah subhanho wa Taala protected him from this. They could have said, for
example, that for 3040 years, we know that what you've been up to drinking fornicating doing this
doing that this is what you used to do. And now all of a sudden, you claim to be a pious man, you
claim to be a changed, man, we don't believe you. So instead, Allah subhanaw taala preserved the
honor of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. And he safeguarded him from this evil.
		
00:20:34 --> 00:21:13
			And that's why it's mentioned in some narrations of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam never
partook, he never took part in any of the lewd and evil actions that the people have or issues to
do, and what was prevalent amongst them. And there is even a narration that says and there is some
difference of opinion over the authenticity of this narration, but some scholars said it is
authentic, where the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that I never did any evil that the
people of Piraeus used to do, except that on two occasions, I was tempted to do so. And the process
of settling before he became before he reached the age of 1011, he used to be a shepherd, as
		
00:21:13 --> 00:21:52
			mentioned in Sahara behati, where the prophet SAW Selim said that every prophet of Allah that came
was a shepherd, used to herd sheep for a period of time. The brothel center was a shepherd for some
time, he said that whilst I was a shepherd, there were other boys who were shepherds alongside me.
So I said to one of them one day, that tonight I am going to go to Makkah, and do as the other men
of McAdoo, meaning engage in their evil actions. And so he said that I went to Makkah, and I saw
that the people were celebrating a wedding. And in this wedding, they would have music and they
would have drinking and people will fornicating around the boiler, they will do all sorts of evil.
		
00:21:52 --> 00:22:31
			And so he said, the proper setup said that I heard and he was a young boy, I had all of this
commotion going on, the people were celebrating. And he went to have a look like a curious boy, he
does goes to look to see. And then perhaps if things are carried on, partake, but Allah subhanaw
taala had preserved and saved him. So the Prophet Solomon said that when I heard the music, I sat, I
sat there listening to it, I fell asleep. Didn't even go into See I just fell asleep. And the only
thing that woke me up was the heat of the sun of the morning. So we just slept through the whole
thing. And he just slept there. And it was only because the day became so hot that he woke up and
		
00:22:31 --> 00:23:10
			realized where he was. So he went back to the ship. And his friend said, what happened last night,
the professor sent him said nothing. But I'm going to go back tonight. Second occasion, you went
back again and again, there was a celebration or some type of festivity. And again, the process and
the Monte to see and hear, but again, as soon as he heard the music and the sound, sleep over came
in, and he fell asleep. And he only woke up when the sun of the morning the heat of the morning came
and struck him and saw the process and then went back and his friend said what are you doing what
happened? And the Prophet seldom said to him, nothing happened and he ignored it. So this is one
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:36
			narration that says that shows that the Prophet is seldom was safeguarded in this way, he will save
God and Allah subhanho wa Taala didn't allow this to become an excuse late one. And that's where
Lars though Gil says in verse 69 of salt minion, m lamea ID for Rasul Allah whom for whom la Oman
key rune, do they the oration not know this man, who is the Messenger of Allah? Or do they just
acknowledge
		
00:23:37 --> 00:24:16
			me meaning that these people in the in the context of this verse is that a large silver gel is
rebuking the corporation the people of Makkah for rejecting the profit or sell them and rejecting
the Quran? And Allah azza wa jal says, There are only possibly two reasons why they would reject
this, this revelation. The first is Flm. Yet the bar on call. The first thing is that they can't
contemplate the Quran doesn't make sense to them, Scott mistakes in it, so contradictions in it,
there is weakness in it. And so it doesn't make sense. That's the first reason why they will reject
it. Well, the second reason is amla merely for so long, that this man who has come to them with this
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:29
			message, they don't know him. Someone unknown to them is a stranger. They don't know his background.
They don't know his family. They don't know his honor. They don't know his piety. They don't know
whether he's a truthful man or a liar. They don't know anything about him.
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:59
			But both of those reasons, were non existent when it came to the Quran and the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wasallam. The Orion made complete and perfect sense to them from the point of view of the
Arabic language, and from the eloquence and the beauty and the poetic nature of the Quran, and they
were unable to rival it in any way nor take any mistake from it. And the man who had bought the
message meaning the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. They knew him and they knew his father
before
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:43
			him and his grandfather before him and his great grandfather before him, and they knew where he came
from, and they knew how we grew up. And they knew how he came to be a man. And they used to even
attest to his character and his honesty and integrity, and truthfulness. But now all of a sudden
they rejected him. And so a lot so Intel says MLM yadi for so long. Did they not know this man who
came to him didn't or know where he came from? Do they not know his family, his background, his
upbringing? What reason do they have of suspecting him of being a liar of bringing false speech to
them, of asking them to believe in something which is wrong? And so Allah subhanaw taala shows how
		
00:25:43 --> 00:26:07
			by preserving the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam throughout his early years, Allah subhanho wa
Taala will take away this excuse from the people of Porsche, but not only from the people of
Piraeus. In fact, throughout the Quran, we find that Allah subhanaw taala mentions that the prophets
of Allah who came before him, they predicted and they prophesized that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam would eventually come.
		
00:26:08 --> 00:26:52
			And that's when the Hadith and read about it Maasai are the Allah and the Prophet said, sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, that it was written in the Book of Allah, in the preserved tablet of Allah, that I
would be the final of the prophets of Allah, I would be the last of the prophets of Allah. And this
was written before Adam was even created from clay. Whilst he will still clay before he was even
created, Allah had already decreed that the prophet SAW Allah He will sell them would be the final
and last of messengers, and then the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, and I will tell you
where this began from, indeed, my forefather Ibrahim may do for me, and the Prophet rissalah. He Sam
		
00:26:52 --> 00:27:36
			gave glad tidings that I would come. And when I when my mother gave birth to me, she saw a vision
that there was a light emanating from her that would illuminate the castles and the houses of a sham
all the way in Syria. She saw this and this hadith is authentic has been authenticated Bashar Al
Burnie and others Rahim Allah wa Taala. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is saying that
not only do Quraysh know him from his background and his family and so on, but Allah subhanaw taala
preserved his mentioned he prophesized that he would come many years before this many generations
before this, the prophets of Allah, all of them knew that a messenger that the final messenger would
		
00:27:36 --> 00:28:14
			soon come, they just didn't know when he would come. They didn't know if they if you would come in,
in their time in their generation, or whether he would come at some later date. And that's where
loss of Hannah darlin Salatu Baqarah, when he speaks about the Prophet, Ibrahim, and he said, I'm
the daughter of Ibrahim, that the prophets Allah mentioned in the Hadith. It is mentioned in Surah
Al Baqarah, where Ibrahim Alayhi Salaam raised the foundations of the Kaaba, alongside his son is
meriel Ali, his Salatu was salam, and the ways that they built the Kaaba, and then Ibrahim alayhis
salam made a number of duels for Makkah, and for the inhabitants of Makkah. And from amongst those
		
00:28:14 --> 00:29:03
			vowels is the he made a dua, that a Prophet would come in Makkah from amongst the people of Makkah.
Allah subhanaw taala says, or ogburn, our birth fee him rosulip min. Whom you have to know early in
your attic, while you are Lima, humulene kita hikmat, our user came in, tell us hours is on hiking,
oh, my lord. And these two houses four or five girls that are mentioned in this passage of the
Quran, Ibrahim alayhis salam for each one of them. He begins by saying, oh my lord, because in each
one of those two hours, he makes two for something new. All of them is all of them pertain to
McCann, the people of Makkah, but each one of them is something additional and new for macker, or
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:24
			for the people of Makkah. And that's why from the etiquettes of dwara, is that when you're making
dua for something new, even if the context and subject is the same, you repeat, calling onto Allah
by his names and his attributes of Hannah Medina. And so he said, Oh, my Lord, son from amongst
them, a messenger who would come from them.
		
00:29:25 --> 00:30:00
			Who would come and he won't we cite your verses. And He will teach the people the book and wisdom
and he will purify them. Indeed, you are the one who has all might own wisdom. So Ibrahim alayhis
salam made to have a look at how he says over law, send amongst them a messenger who would come from
them. Twice. He says this, to emphasize the same point that this messenger on prophet wouldn't come
from outside of Mecca number one, and number two, that he would be from amongst those people.
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:32
			Meaning from the people of Makkah from the tribes of Mecca from the lineage of that same group of
people. And so some of the scholars say that the reason for this is Ibrahim Alayhi Salaam indirectly
is making dua for his own children. Because it's made out of history, Moses son, and he was settled
in Makkah. And he wanted the honor of having this prophet of Allah who would be the greatest and
final messengers of Allah, to be from his lineage, to be from his children. And Allah subhanho wa
Taala, responded to that.
		
00:30:33 --> 00:31:13
			And he also made the dryer that he should be from amongst them, so that those people would have no
excuse to reject Him. This man wouldn't be a stranger or a foreigner amongst them, he would be from
them. And so they would have no excuse in rejecting Him. And also at the same time, because he is
from amongst them, he will understand them best, and he will know them, and he will recognize them
and what they need, and therefore he would be able to give that to them in the best of ways. And
that's what Lauren's the witch of whenever he sends a prophet to any nation or any group of, he says
in the Quran, he always sent them with the language from them that Prophet came from amongst those
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:27
			people. Well, my cell number was solian, Illa, bellisseria, calm, we never sent a messenger except
that he spoke the tongue of his people, he came from them, they knew who he was, they knew where he
came from, and they knew his background.
		
00:31:28 --> 00:32:09
			So the Prophet Ibrahim Alayhi, Salatu was made to her. And he made the either the props or cinema
recite the verses of Allah, that He will teach those people the revelation. And then He will teach
those people wisdom. And when he's making this to our, the tense that he uses is the present tense,
or will love continuously allow him to recite your verses, continuously allow him to teach the
revelation and the wisdom, even though Ibrahim alayhis salam for him, it is something which is in
the future for something which is present at his time. But the reason why in the Arabic language,
the present tense is used is to show that it's something which will be continuous that the prophets
		
00:32:09 --> 00:32:52
			of Salaam, His revelation, his message would last wouldn't be like the other prophets of Allah who
after their deaths, that message will stop with them. When the next Prophet came, he would abrogate
some of that profit of that previous prophets message and rules and laws, and he would make new
additions to them, but rather for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, his message would be
everlasting. Likewise in the Quran, Allah subhanaw taala in Surah, two soft, he mentioned the glad
tidings of reciting his Salatu was Salam there in Saudi his Salaam told his people to expect a
messenger on a profit would come. last panel Donna says, What color is Ave Maria Maria Bernie is SMA
		
00:32:52 --> 00:33:36
			IL. Yeah, Bernie is SMA ILA in nee rasulillah e. La con mucho de Lima by Anya de Yamuna, rah, rah
mobile, Shirin buros, only to remember this movie, our mother. And remember, when he saw the son of
Mary said to the children of Israel, or children of Israel, indeed, I am the messenger of Allah to
you. And I have come bearing truth, and affirming what has already been revealed to you in the
Torah, the Torah was given to musala his Salatu was Salam. And I bring glad tidings that a man will
come after me, his name will be
		
00:33:38 --> 00:34:20
			and he uses the name. And Ahmed as the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, is one of his
names. The Prophet Salim said from my name is Ahmed. And Ahmed is the name that is used here. Were
in Saudi his Salatu was Salam. Why did he use the name Ahmed and not Mohammed, which is the actual
name of the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam. Some of the scholars said, Because denotes a number
of things. Number one, that this is a title that was given to the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam
span his actual name, but it's a title that was given to him. Because the word name in the Arabic
language can have one of three meanings. It can either mean your actual name, so you know, Muhammad
		
00:34:20 --> 00:35:00
			an accent, and job and whatever your name is, that's what it refers to. And the word Islam in Arabic
language, the word name can also mean your title. So if you're known by something, if you're known
by a nickname, you're known by a certain a certain name, or a set nickname, that's not your real
name. It also refers to that. And number three, it can also refer to something which is a
description of you. So something which describes you something watch, if I say, personal will know
who you are. If I say the doctor, and you know who that person means a description of the person.
It's not actually his name, but through it. You know who I'm talking
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:05
			About that also in the Arabic language is known as name. And so the reason why
		
00:35:06 --> 00:35:49
			rissalah is salatu salam uses the name is because the name mammoth fits all three of them. It was
the actual name of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. It was his title, because the name Akhmad
mean someone who is praised, and he was his description, because every single one of the of the
traits and characteristics and attributes of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was something
praiseworthy. And so likewise the Prophet ricciarelli his thought was Salam also gave blood tide of
the Prophet that would come and further than this, Allah Subhana Allah mentions in Nepal and a
verse, which is generic, that every single prophet that came, he foretold the coming of the Prophet
		
00:35:49 --> 00:36:49
			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, Allah subhanaw taala says, We've heard Allah homie, Punjabi Naveen
allama day to come in kita lemma to come in kita Bo hikmah from majha como la masa de Lima mera
kaam. Let me know Nabil he wala Tom Solon, Paul upon our tamala g come easily. Paulo Khurana, Paula
fish hadoo, an American Ushahidi Allah Subhana Dionysus. And remember, when we took the covenant,
the pledge, from all of the profits, from all of the profits, we took a pledge and a covenant and a
covenant in the Arabic language, the word mythique doesn't just mean a promise, but it is a binding
promise. It's not just your word, and an oath, or a promise that you give, but it is binding, it
		
00:36:49 --> 00:36:51
			becomes a pledge and a covenant.
		
00:36:52 --> 00:37:35
			Remember, when we took the covenant from all of the prophets, that when they came, they would bring
the revelation that they were given, and they would give the wisdom that they were given? When if
the messenger King amongst them? Who is the messenger, referring to our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, if he happened to come at that time amongst them, because we know that there were prophets
of Allah, some of them two or three would come at the same time. Like Ibrahim, how do you set out
this marine his heart than his heart with your pull the noose of a one time more than a prophet of
Allah would be present. So if the Messenger of Allah came during your time, let me know, Nabil, the
		
00:37:35 --> 00:38:23
			pledge is that you would be leaving him one atom soon. And the other pledges that you would help him
and assistant, you would become followers of him, you would help him to achieve his message you
would submit to Him and you would believe in Him, fallen victim to Marilla. The condition is Allah
said to all of those prophets, do you agree with this? Do you attest to this, and you take this firm
pledge, this firm covenant, although all of them said we agree, all of them said we test on a law,
all of a shadow, or an American minister, he didn't so then Allah said, bear witness, and I too,
will be a witness alongside you. So each of the prophets of Allah was told of the Prophet salallahu
		
00:38:23 --> 00:39:02
			alayhi wasallam, that he would come and not only that, but if he happened to come, that they would
have to follow Him, and that they would assist him. And so Allah subhanaw taala mentioned this in
many places in the Quran. So the point of all of this is to show how Allah subhanho wa Taala is
preserving the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, even before he came, his honor. And then when
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was born, and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam grew up
as an orphan, how Allah subhanho wa Taala cared for him. How large though which will protected him,
Allah subhanaw taala preserved his honor, so that when eventually he would become a prophet of
		
00:39:02 --> 00:39:44
			Allah, and when eventually he would receive that revelation from Allah subhanho wa Taala. The people
of Quraysh will be unable to criticize him. And so even though there are only two or three verses in
the Quran, look at the vast meaning of them. Look at how when you ponder and contemplate them, you
see, not only the extent to which Allah subhanaw taala cared for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, but it also shows how Allah subhanho wa Taala cares and protect for his only year for the
believers. When you turn to Allah subhanho wa Taala and you place your trust in Allah azza wa jal
and you rely upon Allah subhana wa Taala irrespective of the difficulty that you're going through,
		
00:39:45 --> 00:39:59
			even though sometimes the circumstances in front of you and before your eyes seem difficult, because
you know that the whole life of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was trying upon trial,
difficulty upon difficulty hardship upon hardship.
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:41
			Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam wasn't safeguarded from pain in that way to lose your father to
lose your to lose your grandfather at a young age is traumatic for anyone, for any child. Yet the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had something which preserved him, and that was the production
of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And that's why the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, they're
indeed the prophets of Allah, are the ones who are most severely tried. And then those who are
similar to them, and then those who are similar to them. But the believer is the one who doesn't
just look at what's taking place in front of the eyes and become despondent. Become a person who
		
00:40:41 --> 00:41:22
			dispense from the mercy of Allah feel that there's no hope there's no chances no good because they
always know that Allah subhanho wa Taala is the best of planners, and that every decree and decision
that Allah subhanaw taala makes and takes, there is ultimate wisdom and ultimate knowledge behind
it. And Allah azza wa jal is all hearing an old sin and all knowing, and he subhana wa Taala is the
best of planners, and the best of protectors. So despite the difficulty, Allah subhanaw taala shows
how he cares for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and this just isn't just with the Prophet
salallahu alayhi wasallam all of the stories of the prophets of Allah, you will find this recurring
		
00:41:22 --> 00:41:49
			theme. If you look at the story of Musa alayhis salam and the circumstance that he grew up in the
fact that his mother had to throw him into the river, just to save his life. She had to trust in
Allah and placed him in the Nile. It's not just a small canal that we have in Birmingham, right?
It's not just something smaller ish places. This is the river Nile, the mighty is greatest river on
the planet Earth. But she trusts in a lunch he places him in the river.
		
00:41:50 --> 00:42:29
			Why? Because that circumstance is difficult. But Allah subhana wa Taala will protect him showing how
we'll learn. So john, when he chooses to help someone, and the believers or those who when they seek
the help of Allah, they then place their trust in Allah subhanaw taala as well. They know that even
though the result may not be something that they like or something that they would want to something
that they would desire, but because Allah decreed that for them, there is ultimately good in it for
them. And so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam grew up in that circumstance, grew up in the
difficult time, where he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was alone. And then Allah subhana wa tada
		
00:42:30 --> 00:43:10
			mentions Not only that, but that he provided for him, because he grew up as an orphan, and he grew
up as poor. And we know that the prophet SAW Allah Allah He was Selim eventually began working for
Khadija rhodiola, who was a wealthy woman amongst Quraysh. And she was a businesswoman, she would
have caravans that would go in the summer and the winter months like the Arabs did to a sham and
Yemen and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam became one of those people that she trusted, and
she entrusted him with her wealth, and her her possessions or her merchandise and so on, because he
was trustworthy, and because of his character, and his integrity, and his honesty, and so on. And
		
00:43:10 --> 00:43:49
			that then led him eventually, or her eventually to offering to marry the Prophet salallahu alayhi
wasallam. And then when she married him, she would further support him with her wealth, and with her
life, or the Allah who I'm her word. And so Allah subhanaw taala cared for the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, and he provided for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, but Allah subhanaw
taala says will agenda cobalt and father and did you not also find you a stray misguided, and he
guided you? And this doesn't mean when Allah Subhana Allah says that he found him misguided doesn't
mean that he was upon shell Korea to be law. Does it mean that the prophets Allah was engaged in
		
00:43:49 --> 00:44:28
			Cofer, because we know that he never worshipped idols, never commit to shock in his life, never did
those things that the people used to do at the time. That's not the meaning of this the process and
always had the essence of tawheed in the sense that he never worship other than Allah. But what he
means is that the prophets of Salaam didn't know the details of he man didn't know the details of
revelation didn't have knowledge as to how he should worship Allah and come closer to Allah didn't
understand the concept of gender, and now paradise and Hellfire and the day of judgment and all of
those other things that we know as a result of Islam and the Quran. And so Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:44:28 --> 00:44:59
			system for example, in the final verses of Surah assura Allah subhanaw taala says, worker Veronica
ohioana go ham in Medina, ma upon email kita voila, Emma and Wallah King Jana who know Ron nahi nahi
B HeMan Nasha amin Reba Dena, we're in natella deha de la si Rocklin muster beam and thus
		
00:45:00 --> 00:45:42
			We gave to you from the inspiration we gave to you Oh Mohammed Sana Allah alayhi wa sallam
inspiration and revelation and we brought you to life because of that revelation, because true life.
True living in this world, is when a person is open to the guidance of law, when a person turns to
Allah subhanho wa Taala. And they follow the commandments and the revelation that Allah is the
original sin down, that is when they are truly alive. And that's why Allah Subhana Allah says in the
Quran, that those who turn away from him are not alive. They're not alive, even though they live in
the eating, they're drinking, they're breathing, they're doing the normal bodily functions. In
		
00:45:42 --> 00:46:25
			reality, they're not alive. Because the true life is the life of the heart and the soul. That is the
life that Allah subhana wa Taala wants us to live. And that is why the purpose of the own and
ultimately, is to bring life and nourishment to the heart, not to the body, because that's what food
and drink is for. And so what often happens and one of the greatest traps of shavon is when he
twists this and makes us think that a real life is in preserving our bodies, not in preserving our
hearts. And so we stay in our bodies and we nourish them, but we neglect our hearts to the extent
that even if the Quran was to be recited, we don't feel any type of movement in our hearts, no
		
00:46:25 --> 00:47:09
			softening of the heart. No contemplating the verses of Allah subhanaw taala no ability to be able to
cry at the words of a large soldier. Why? Because we've so long neglected our heart that is more or
less dry and dead. That is why the Quran was revealed so that he would come and address the heart.
And that's why Allah subhanho wa Taala when he speaks about the revelation of the Quran, he says to
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam nors Allah be your role. I mean, gebe rerelease Salaam came
with this revelation, or the public, and he came with it to your heart, or Muhammad sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, not your mind, not your eyes, not your body, he came with it to your heart,
		
00:47:10 --> 00:47:51
			because that is what the opponent does, it brings it back to life. So Allah subhanaw taala is saying
in the sort of soul to show raw land soldier is saying we are the ones who brought you to life by
the revelation we gave to you. And Allah is directly addressing the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam mark on Twitter did email keytab when he man before this meaning in the first 40 years of
your life, you never knew the meaning of Eman the meaning of true faith, nor did you know the
meaning of revolution. He didn't understand. That doesn't mean that the Prophet solemn was
worshipping other than Allah No. But what he means is that he didn't know the details of Eman how to
		
00:47:51 --> 00:48:10
			worship Allah, how to come closer to Allah how to believe in Allah how to attain the pleasure of
Allah subhana wa Taala we're lacking Jana we'll move on. Now her DB HeMan Nasha women are bad. But
we are the ones meaning en la is the one who places this light in the hearts of whomsoever He wills
		
00:48:11 --> 00:48:58
			and that's why I lost him handle Darla in another verse Allah azza wa jal also says in Surah, two
lancair Boat womma come to loom in cobbly him in kita wala taho Toby me Nick, either. Laura Tarbell
mobile clone. And before this meaning before your prophet one before in the first 40 years of your
life. You never used to recite the Quran, recite revelation? No, were you able to write it down?
Because you didn't have revelation you didn't understand revelation, you didn't appreciate the
beauty of the revelation of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And so Allah subhanaw taala in these ways, he
gives us indications of the first 14 years of the life of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
		
00:48:58 --> 00:49:38
			and those years that would eventually take him up to the point where he would sallallahu alayhi
wasallam be ready to receive that first revelation in the case. So lots of panel data is showing in
these three verses in Surah to Doha, where you will not an orphan and Allah is the one who protected
you and will you not astray and Allah is the one who guided you. And will you are not poor and Allah
azza wa jal is the one who provided for you. On loss of Hannah Diana is showing how in those early
years, even though there was no revelation, no angel GB Valley Salaam, nothing of that sort of
nature. Allah subhanaw taala still cared and preserved and protected. Our Prophet sallallahu alayhi
		
00:49:39 --> 00:49:59
			wa sallam and with that inshallah Allah we're going to come on to the next stage. And that will be
when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam actually receives those first few verses and the
revelation of Allah subhanho wa Taala as well as the origin that gives us the ability to understand
the Koran and to contemplate on on and to study the life of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:28
			Eliminating benefit from it. And it's colossal panel data that through this process we increase and
our love for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and by doing so we attain the pleasure of
Allah subhanho wa Taala and that Allah azzawajal makes us from amongst those people who will be
resurrected under the flag of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam and in his companionship and
what a blessing companionship that is, or sort of lower on Nebula Mohammed, what are the early he
