00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			Okay Miss Miller of my Rahim
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:07
			monitor barbata Allah molecule or the Euro from Kumasi, sama
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:15
			so as I mentioned in about the Quran same thing is to say about the sooner the professor listen
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:25
			God if people knew the guidance they also need an example of the people who follow guidance Kadena
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:30
			oh you can see the Quran like direction which direction go
		
00:00:31 --> 00:01:19
			but doesn't enough people also need a road to walk on too soon either like your road people say you
have to go east or west, but you need to road you need proper road proper path on which you can
walk. So this is the soonest another path but if if people don't know direction, they know the road
they can go down route direction the first thing you learn your direction properly from the Koran
then after that see in this direction how the Prophet muscle awesome he walked follow his footsteps
that was soon and as soon as Sunday as soon as you can read music you know something on which
someone walks in again and again. If somebody walks only once in as soon the path somebody walked
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:28
			only one because it's so nice when somebody walks on something again again The sooner the path
walked upon again again that as soon as possible.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:43
			Too many military people say in the community there sooner if you ask them did the Prophet do know
is the Prophet even did not do what's How can you sooner it needs to be done again and again. When
he did again again, that was sooner means
		
00:01:44 --> 00:02:25
			sooner. There's a mis misunderstanding in the world about some reason is because just the books or
the Hadith has been written to people think of whatever in the books of the Hadees or sooner they
don't understand really why Buhari includes so many details they think every symbol for him included
in the book, it must be sooner ever that Muslim has got it must be soon now. This is not really they
know what they do. But when we read them we don't understand what they're doing. To we misinterpret
them to first thing take out from your mind that Bukhari and Muslim you know what they will glue and
listen no then close sooner and things which are other than the sooner so now the one part of that
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:49
			if you really want to know the book or the sooner properly maybe more likely, you can say like more
even more Tiger something which you know sooner but generally more Ted more like you can say because
sooner but Buhari was a millimeter is meant to be what Bukhari Muslim but sooner is something
different. So know simply means really, whatever had been taught in the Quran, in a practice how to
how to act upon that the sooner
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:54
			to something not in the Quran, and the Prophet did it can be consulted.
		
00:02:55 --> 00:03:13
			The Prophet sallallahu Sallam doesn't mean anything. He does things either messenger meaning to act
upon the Quran that was so nice to whatever the Prophet does as a messenger a meaning to teach you
how to add one the Quran that is sooner but the prophets Allah than before being messenger he's also
a human being
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:59
			to like any human being he does many things every human being does he also does you know that you
don't need to follow him he's also an Arab he got a bit different from his culture you know he wears
the same clothes as our people were you know, he is same food I did he has a medical treatment as
they have got now you come and you think it also not not right? You know, what is so nice that when
you fall ill you should consult a doctor and get medical treatment that sooner but let's say medical
treatment at the Prophet does not say that in his culture. He did because he can't do anything else
he can't find a medicine for an hour time he has to found follow his time. So nice that you have to
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:13
			cover your body and you have to protect yourself against the heat and the cold that is soon but to
have certain types of dress I the Prophet did doesn't assume that that's our culture to try to
understand send food the professors and loved Sorry
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:53
			Sorry, that was a good food for our people. They loved it because you know from very beginning they
know that so much praise for the read and enjoy that in a study that they used to make from meat and
I and underbid together. Sorry. What is good actually what soon either there's some time You should
eat the food, good food, have your people that they know that don't think you're alien in a car they
somebody never eats any good food always and raw food. People think really, to be pious used to be
like that. No buy it means that you be like people to Sanai, that in some time You should eat the
best couple of years like we have come in this country. Sometimes you go unexperienced you know what
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:55
			Turkish food is and something like that, the sooner
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:59
			sooner not that. You must have studied that nothingness. You
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:23
			You know that an example of that best food, the example, but for Indian people would be something
else for Turkish people. So not something that people keep misunderstanding things, too For example,
you know, the professor loves them, he's a good man, he cares for the people, but the way he cares
his own way, but the way you get will be different but getting sooner. The professor says to his to
his wives,
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:35
			telling stories, you know, some entertainer or something, you know, people have come happy, that is
sooner. But you think No, I must tell the same story of the professionalism that imparare mentioned
Hadith
		
00:05:36 --> 00:06:16
			in Bukhari Muslim in a good generation, if you tell the story to your wife, maybe they become upset
and they just fall asleep the baby don't enjoy that anyway, because that was good, maybe a lot of
people but daughter was sentenced if you keep reverb people who do not like that does not so neither
telling the story, but not exactly the same story that try to understand let me spend again, so now
only means that that practice or the person that is alum, which he did to apply the Quran is a
killer, whatever he did to apply the Quran, that the sooner the guide and that what he did, what he
did either human being Oh,
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:18
			that is not sooner.
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:33
			You know, that is some details which can differ in your time lacking in our time maybe made the best
medical treatment is available there. You can go there too far. So now what is tonight, you find you
get medical treatment,
		
00:06:34 --> 00:07:12
			but not the same one different because it's same when you can never confirm to impossible to this
one misunderstanding among the people that we can see in London sometimes I find people walk in the
street with a turban and they think you know they do jihad with a very turban? No, you're basically
making yourself alien. The professor has never made himself alien to the people. When you come to
Makkah you never can differentiate the Prophet from Abuja by dress, Abuja and the Prophet had same
cloth, same food, or same thing. There's no difference between a Buddha and the prophet in the in
the cloth it is the same the same people are will have same thing the Prophet never actually made
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:32
			effort after Islam to make Islamic dress the nettle no Islamic uniform didn't ever happen he
continued with the same cloth as even God nothing's changing this word people don't understand the
sooner you get to cover your body and a good decent growth of your people your people therefore
profit not necessarily profits people
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:42
			to this thing keep in mind when we say tsunami tsunami is whatever the professor attempted to apply
the Quran
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:58
			why whatever the more than that they are not sooner that culture. Culture is either not contradicted
the sooner is fine. If content is there culture needs to be changed every people have culture you
know when it came to one istan
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:18
			of one plus became Islamic because Islamic alaric Avaya dress in a fulfill the purpose it covers the
body it also protects traditional cloth fine Indian people they want to wear like Western people
they have their own cloth it is truth eyes like it covers the body fine to think really that you
must be put up with me like I'm
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:55
			not not right but this actually never had been that it is Indian growth Indian people have developed
nothing to do with the past allows them to think the sooner is not right to think to octopi height
is soon not right. We don't even have word for that in Arabic language there's no single word for
topi current soy the word borrowed from some other language they don't have their own word it is
such a rich language if they have a dress Why in the world because you know their their dress
different outside these devalue mama Some people think the professor used to wear a mama all the
time that a big investments understand no he did not well he one knew where the amama when a
		
00:08:55 --> 00:09:19
			delegation came when he wants to make more effort to welcome people to their country see he making
effort but generally in the prayers at home meeting the people he's one people no matter how hard
you can find how many will serve people all the time yeah mama and somebody in my mosque and also in
a shirt and trouser did not fit tell him but he has in mind Mr. Sonata he goes in the shirt and
trouser but without a mama
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:28
			Mr. Tanaka without a mama can go with our cloth but does not fit with the trouser Anisha but never
mind you I'm on my soon
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:59
			he will maybe he get reborn cuz sometimes people are misunderstanding a lotta is still a gig with
their word because it is the making effort but all I need to teach them so this is another matter is
sometimes people do something because they love the process allows them to even default them in this
multi dose division or sooner. Maybe they can get reward but if they're correct and they think it is
sooner at the teach everybody then they will get seen by some somebody loves the theory because the
Prophet loved Yeah, maybe you can get get rewarded because he loves the Prophet by we start teaching
that then it will be stick
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:40
			cuz then he corrupted the religion, he should not do that, too if you do individually personally
something of those things which are now soon, you know, on your own, maybe you get reward but if you
start teaching that, that the corruption not something usually what I say if you read the body now
you can see your clearly but you know my shot I mean his book and waffle but he hadn't mentioned
these two points very clearly two times or sooner. And then more clearly done by marinela they read
his book, who to lie about ever, but he said not the measures or Roman lobbyists Allah Islam, you
know the sciences or the person Larissa lumpini which he said sooner to ties similar to Hoda and
		
00:10:40 --> 00:11:00
			sooner rather sooner the guidance and soon after culture so now the culture are like and he
mentioned that food eating clinic medical treatment the unknown again comes around I love you and
everything and don't think that you know everybody does mistake I will do many many steps to
multimedia great man but he certainly didn't stick when he named the book a table number V
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:37
			or it is a table RB or a people's medical treatment is nothing to do with the professor Larson. He
also followed his people. You got to make a table number vt a table RB. Similarly you know, food
does not mean that Tom larvae now somebody comes to Kalamazoo says well only is it whatever people
do in the past, right a new somewhere I never find suited doing anything new in this world. The
Bible masters derisively anybody can write 10 books every day. Just get a book summarize it make a
new book a few things here and there because nothing is actually copyrighted because
		
00:11:39 --> 00:12:10
			they're referred for volumes that's music or it's a new book just exactly what by what centers by
center securities here and they're innocent change it just like that. See anything people have done
Susie comes and makes a new thing under the sub envirothon comes here it is high is not too far this
she usually comes here so no shalya too high just about the same her This is just make it all the
time keep doing that people think oh naughty two people wrote in no time your rights are rather
limited to you. So up comes the right philosophy that
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:50
			if you've never made any new argument against Greek logic, or anytime you're the one actually the
summaries are not also successful in thermit arguments are much much better, much more detailed,
much more convincing when you summarize it. It doesn't become something that other people should
really the orange yellow box you can you can see it when people receive it to death is so good. They
don't understand it it based on something else. History Ravi Ravi every single t series or made it
coming from Nakajima sada books, aka Dr. Bobby, nothing that there is research you did not do any
research. You're just copying them what by what? idea that same idea by Mira Kalani, they have been
		
00:12:50 --> 00:13:17
			copied there too. I never find him asked us to do and tell him also he comes on he said in every
center there have been an almost de Shafi none of them are hanafy or Maliki or somebody on Twitter
did our specialty Shafi on for the 10th century. Industry he is who is most I hope I'm God. He said
about himself. I'm ahead of the century, then maybe after him somebody else claims to he said but
after this, it will muddy. But last year people
		
00:13:18 --> 00:14:01
			have been making all these emails to people they said in the last email, you know, email the vibe he
was 40 or what he disappeared to be muting. Then they realized really that maybe after their death,
some other token that they mute them to when they're 60 or older. 64 year old, both of them they
come to the come to the city. Today we met the mom arrived. And he said to us this last meeting
after this if anybody cannot that he met him while he's alive. The finish to now nobody can meet him
up to this up the masucci also met that first thing to consider is that Islamic anyway, nothing to
do with Brenda Delgado he missed very clearly, this all had this had this week. This concept in the
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:35
			concept in Islam is in every generation will be people Karl Karl became mere Santa 100. And in Abu
Dhabi, Abu Dhabi, this actually had to be conspired totally on article on this matter. And had this
happen without this. The way the word is used to mean people of one generation in every generation,
there will be some people who will reform the sector in emergency but nothing to the 100 years that
people don't continue generation to our country 200 years. And on the base of that wrong idea. He
made a list goes on all from Shafi mother, nobody's from any other mother
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:50
			to anybody don't have to secondly, because some people get something wrong. And then people start
tapping them without thinking. They're nothing like that. And they're not the Buddha did not I will
never be in that sense. What I'm in love with a salad. If you eat a lot of food,
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:59
			whatever holla if you eat that, that is another professor used to eat halal food. People should eat
halal food. He used to eat it
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:17
			You know, literally not to fill in the stomach if you do that you eat your food, but don't fill your
stomach that is not the partial answer to people don't understand people think you have to do
exactly the same thing. But in few things, you know, I give you an example. This really helped me to
understand my teacher morozova
		
00:15:18 --> 00:16:04
			Rama he was the director of a matassa big mercy India job to follow even as they said trustees used
to come and meet once a year. So once some meeting was there, too, I took some trustees to show them
the hostel that the students and the students were having breakfast dinner there you know, duster
convertible Colaco, you know but dirty you know not so good that you think they're there after that
we you know mirror image father breakfast for the trustees to very nice clean sheet you know,
properly there I'm good food testers who went to to see with me there's no lifted because I cannot
bear the students up on the dirty you know,
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:49
			clock and we eat and so clean we can't do this tomato salad Okay, then I removed that and brought
the same 131 very sad eating I said to me stop now. You saw the clock 30 you removed it? Did you see
the food? The food that is towards it and whatnot like that? There's a different food but this food
are you eating? Are you eating something different for the students? That what we do really we
follow the prophet in very small thing but in reality what the Prophet came to teach nobody follows
him. Two people think a rifle hijama you follow the Sunnah but what prophets nothing to do day and
night Really? Nobody cares about that. People think no if you read you follow sooner, but he's too
		
00:16:49 --> 00:17:29
			concerned about halaal Hara that we don't we don't have cancer. We have reduced the sooner to those
tests which are very easy anybody can do anybody can do it. We don't need any intention. They're
here soon I disappeared to anyone to that question keep in mind when we say sooner we mean that
practice of the person or listening or even saying which he did to apply the Quran to the prayer the
fasting does aka the halal halal and haram in buying and selling all the they are the sooner the
professor loves you know he taught it he applied for further tests which he did either human being I
was another day or another so not the professor listen them
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:40
			what Buhari Muslim because the life of the person listen I'm in many ways can be helpful for the
believers some because sometime you need to know the contents of the Quran
		
00:17:41 --> 00:18:17
			to what they did any relate to the price analysis they include because it could be helpful and
people need to know more about martial arts to certainly those stories are helpful for us to battle
a bother but lapada many meetings you can learn from them in a professional life, early life
whatever details can come here they can be some helpful some typically provide a context but then as
soon as possible hiring Muslim either to provide to you a book you know those details which have any
connection with the life of the person also it is like anything not necessary you need to follow
them but it can be helpful for you something to satelli history is helpful to basically say Buhari
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:59
			Muslim is like history of the professor listen them, you know, which actually major party sooner
anyway, but some parts are not sooner by split they belong to the history or the professor Larson
that what you need to learn to minister is a Bukhari Muslim, understand distinct that there are some
Hadith which are far apart but not to say sooner, you don't need to follow that, but if they can be
helpful for you for something else, and that people can ask the ultimate discard. So this one thing
I wanted to tell you the difference between Suna and the Hadith Hadith is simply minister Hubbard
another word for Hadith is harbor harbor means report her DC report her DC reporting, the sooner the
		
00:18:59 --> 00:19:38
			profit on whatever the rate is the profit that it had the data is off burner. So on reported to
Heidi habito hover means history, history of the process, this element is history inclusive, the
sooner on other than the sunlight will once you understand this thing, then this idea that hey, this
must be sacred gold away from Yama unnecessarily people met her This is sacred. This is not sacred,
you know, people have to understand really what is sooner and what is other than to not pass a law
to Salem and hamdulillah that thing has been preserved by Zuma very clearly referring to Sahaba they
do this then tagline did and then people after that, did
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:59
			they preserve the knowledge both in writing and also in memory to meet artists used to memorize
because in their writing with very little immigrant, but later our writing developed so much.
Generally everybody started writing to after 100 years. When people go to study hard is generally
day to write actually before coming to the class. They used to come
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:19
			Read the book of the teacher, and they used to do reading became very, very common, very different
very rarely. People think that in all the Hagia Sophia, Antonio, Monaco, Sofia, Maria, Anna, and all
didn't read it all from memory, there's not really they used to have their books, and his Tunis.
They used to copy from them that why there's so much agreement.
		
00:20:20 --> 00:20:33
			But these books are not proper books. And there are books like notes to notebooks, I actually wrote
an article or GitHub, GitHub on the two types of the books, to some books that people use, right,
either Norse to teach
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:40
			them, some books, it used to be proper book with argument, no proper beginning and end and all those
things.
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:57
			Even the books which are like norson, they're done by the orlimar. People, the arts are not they're
not organized, but then they're not proper book meaning it does not have that argument and a system
like Mata Mata is not a book intersection. It's a book like notebook, direct,
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:39
			indirect motor for America, the different order different. They do whatever they like is to motel
water, because in what order not important in water, but books Alexey viser Kitab Imam Bukhari Sahih
Bukhari Muslim Muslim they are proper book written you know with that intention they have ordered
they have 13 You know, it will and it follows that if you discuss if you take out these other
countries, it will have no meaning really, it really matters of where Buhari crusades they had this
which has got 10 information and Buhari will use for five information and he this other five
information it could be intentionally he thinks this or this other five in information they're not
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:46
			important it could be ugly sometimes it is there to people this book in the proper book like books
written by Aristotle
		
00:21:47 --> 00:22:25
			the notebooks I started never wrote a proper book or his writing sir just notes like malice motor to
it was the old fashioned nothing new really all these people they need to write for the students if
you study with them, too It will be helpful for you if you're not studying for they're not writing
really far everybody has to complete comprehensive argument does not work but there are good people
to even when the right knows that they are very clear they can be helpful. But that keep in mind too
in Islam there have been many many books of heavy but when people think how these books they think
like no books music there have been notebooks people used to write for their students the students
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:52
			can remember honey for the books you know so many cadaver dogs and all those sorts like notebooks
they're not proper proper books are very, very few admission in the grammar, you have CBl kita you
have gotten around behind the book, even in my shop the books, they are not maybe a restaurant is
proper book better argument no Dustin Berkey taboo on all that they are like most you know typical
argument content order content is still demand the same thing.
		
00:22:53 --> 00:23:04
			To this how we actually happen is many many artists came into existence, Bukhari and Muslim on books
like that, they are not only Hadith, their Hadith plus argument
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:42
			let our people become lazy that thinking now we have got all the sound how this anyway argument is
there if anybody in this argument they can go We don't need to read all those again again, he knows
so much, you know, hustle something like that. So people started you know, collecting Hadith, just a
month, without argument without this not without anything, that we can start after 300 years. Now
people like mon Bella we know he wrote masabi and other people too he started writing books, which
are in from these books, but without any argument without any sin or nothing if you want to know you
can go there. Then what happens is these bukan became potent.
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:45
			Then their argument is finished. Nobody knows.
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:56
			Bukhari Muslim Alia for Baraka lebara two people do some very very quickly and after a while they
even don't know really what because most
		
00:23:58 --> 00:24:37
			people don't understand that this actually happened a big loss anyway. So among the books which have
been compiled together without argument without decent art without any proof, you know, among them
are many books what's your call about not 40? Because somehow in some weaker this has come if some
people memorize you know or learn 40 had this digital epidemic, none of them have found any way at
all the week. The no new really for this number. I don't know what why this number becomes so
important in Islam, but it's so many for other alien Medina Satoshi Salim Singh, Abdullah Baraka did
the first people who wrote it 40 Howdy. And then after that in many, many 40 had these people people
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:38
			kept writing
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:40
			to one of them is
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:59
			Mr. Navi 40 had this directly he took from somewhere else, not all from him. And then in Raja Bella,
somebody comes here are some more difficult 50 Hubby, but him now exactly, it's not 4043 so you
know, you're 4243 I think 42 4200 No, no, we had done
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:27
			So that's what he did to he is selected from these books the Bahamas in January and for other tests
as well don't have this which actually are good teachings and people knew in their life more often
does this good thing is something like that that should be done but therefore the common people but
all of us should learn something real thing too far calmer, too subtle you need because they don't
don't need argument necessarily, you can provide them he wrote his book also.
		
00:25:29 --> 00:25:48
			That's more complete one, but even the 4142 They are also very good and people should learn the real
Islam to deal with this. People who wrote fortunately there are many many different intention some
people wrote on certain topics. Some people have more of these techniques you know javita which have
you know, makan Hadith or Medina and Hadith are this is
		
00:25:50 --> 00:26:20
			a sample of like about Jihad about Bill Walton about some topic. Ivanova Imani in selecting the
ossola Islam the fundamentals of the religion to love the desert very very important is no doubt a
lot of people should follow them and make effort to act upon them. These are these you know, all of
them like you know Hadees of debris radish Rama, Rama Rama vignette, intention actions are good
intentions they're very good at this really in the people that then memorize them and teach them
some of the Hadith he has got from other sources
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:54
			and some of these sources they're good but few out there actually are not right actually I in my
book, I beat him tomorrow inshallah I have a mark seven Hadeeth which are week to week to make any
argument some of them could be nearly like fabricated basically very very weak but seven not not
more than seven to dos image should be understood properly. The problem with that other than seven
the rest of the hottest they are sound savvy either they will call you must know they're not they're
still your sound
		
00:26:57 --> 00:27:00
			when we communicate people don't understand what they mean really definitely.
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:44
			No, it was a mistake to people making sticker mistakes I've not had the window had that incessantly
shot and move it in near far her these were people during mistake mistake not her not mistake not
fabricated but they did mistake that is misunderstanding they're somehow saying of someone because
