			Now he was early he was so happy he was salam. Loma Linda Nyan pharaoh now one fan of Mr. Olympia
Anna was in a memorable anime
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:25
			we've reached the chapter, Babu fugly. fuckery the virtue of poverty and there are several a hadith
in it and we have two more to go before we finish that particular Bab chapter in the book of a
recap.
		
00:00:27 --> 00:01:18
			And the first one for today is an assault of the Allahu Anhu reporting about the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam and he said the mere Aquilina Vu sallallahu alayhi wa salam ala KeyOne in Hatta,
Matt. The prophets Allah wa salam never ate on the floor table. This one is a floor table, until his
death, Alma Akela HUBZone Moroccan hat and he did not eat a flattened soft bread until his death,
sal Allahu Allah, he was in them. So here he is describing the life of the prophet, something that
was persistent, all the way to the death of the prophets of Allah. He was in them, the first of them
is the only one. He never ate on a three one, but one is, as we said, a table it's a floor table is
		
00:01:18 --> 00:02:04
			it in the floor, and it elevates the food up to you. So he said he never saw that, and he never ate
on it. Salallahu Salam so that means that we knew what eats a lot he said it would be on the floor,
the food will be on the floor. So that is a via to throw out the extreme humility from him Sal,
Allahu Allah, he was a lump, what the holy and dunya and forsaking the dunya is that even that he
did not have Salallahu Salam or he did not want and he did not possess and he did not want or did
not want Allahu Allah. Well McCullough hubs in Morocco, he didn't eat flat and bread, several hubs
and WarRock from the term itself. Rotted means it's thin, means it's a bread that had been baked,
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:09
			prepared, flattened, and as you flatten it, it softens.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:31
			And even till today, there's a bread that they will call recap. Or gag in some accents, or mark oak,
if you've heard of it. Soft, flat bread, which is what well prepared bread. So he did not see that
Salallahu Salam during his lifetime.
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:42
			So here Ennis is describing it's as if you're talking to your kids, and you say, when we were
growing up, we didn't see these things.
		
00:02:43 --> 00:03:22
			Things that they take for granted things that they see available. But you say when we were growing
up, we never saw these things. So Anna's here is describing or lo alum things that they have. For
Sahaba, after the prophets, Allah Salam, and then that Iberian they could see it. But he said, you
see these things that are available in your homes, that soft bread that you're eating, that the
Prophet sallallahu Sallam did not see. did not experience that that type of luxury, he did not see
it. So consider here Subhan Allah, the luxury that he's talking about, compared to us today.
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:37
			You don't only have a few on how many tables do we have at home, right. And you have tables that can
elevate up to you right? And how many plates do you have at home and how many types of bread you can
buy.
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:55
			You just go to the store and you select the type of bread that suits you, and you come back home and
you eat it. And after we eat, we still complain about the fact that we don't have enough whereas the
profits are loose in them. He says that type of soft bread he never saw.
		
00:03:56 --> 00:04:38
			The benefit of these a hadith and similar a hadith that will follow is that among the benefits of
them is for you to see how hard their life was, and how hard the life of the prophets of Allah Ani
was in them was, but that he had Iman, nevertheless, and that if Allah azza wa jal decides to take
away some of the dunya from you, it does not take away from his love for you. Because the Allah azza
wa jal loved His Prophet salallahu Salam, but he did not have the dunya either Allah did not give it
to him or he willingly gave it away, gave it up.
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:56
			So if you experience hardship, at least you can remember and you say, well, the prophets of Allah he
was in them never saw this never ate that and never experienced all of this. Yet Allah azza wa jal
loved him and Allah azza wa jal favorite him
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			and also the benefit of that
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:36
			is to know that even if you go through hardship in life, you could still manage to love Allah and to
be pleased with Allah and to have trust in Him Subhana wa to Allah so your worship of Allah is not
dependent on how much he gives you of the dunya that if he doesn't make me rich, if he does not give
me a wife and a husband, and if he does not give me kids and, and a house and this and that, then
that means I'm angry with him and he's angry with me. No, despite that hardship, you still worship
and you love Allah subhanho wa Taala under the dunya is not an indication of the airfield or
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:39
			a scale for the
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:57
			the next one is from Aisha Radi Allahu anha. And that she's describes what happened to her after the
prophets of Allah Azza wa sallam. She said like a to fee and EBU OMA if you're a fee minchie Any
Hakuna hoodoo cabbie Illa shot Rocha here in fear of Finley.
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:15
			So he said, When the prophets Allah said, I'm passed away, I didn't have in my home anything that
any living being can eat, except some shave some barley feel a Finley on a shelf, or in a cupboard.
So the only thing in the house
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:25
			again, you need to actually imagine this, the whole house, just a small house. But the whole house
had nothing in it except what
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:33
			shave barley as the only thing that was left, no other type of food available, but barley.
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:55
			So she said a couple Tumino, Hatha Ali said he continued to eat from it. Until, I mean, a long time
has passed. And she's still eating from it, and eat from it and eat and didn't run out. audits for
kill two who for funny, he said, I measured it, and it ran out.
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:04
			So here, this is a Kurama for shuttle, the Allahu anha, meaning she had some barley.
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:31
			And each day, she would take and cook from it the next day, the third and the fourth and the fifth.
And then after some time, she doesn't tell us how many days but after some time, she thought, how
long can I keep eating from that barley? And it's still it keeps giving me right. How much do I have
anyway. So she takes it, she measures it. And when she does that it soon runs out.
		
00:07:33 --> 00:08:05
			Then there's a lesson here. So this first of all, there's an obvious cut Alma that Allah has dubbed
an honor die, he showed all the Allahu Ana that as long as she was taken from it, but not weighing
it. It kept giving her and kept giving her and it kept giving her and who knows maybe if she didn't
weigh it, how long it will continue to give. But when she took it, and she weighed it, now she knows
exactly what is in it, how much how many kilograms it was. And now since you know, it turns out
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:10
			so that this call is of sudden explaining, it's difficult to move a fanny
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:48
			pack and NEMAHA ishara as if it's an indication or a sign that the reason that it ran out, is
because she weighed it. Otherwise, if she had left it, it would not. So they say there is benefit in
this ever actually everyone that is don't look with eagerness and greed at what you have. And you
weigh it with greed and concern, but rather let it be and use it. Because there will be more Baraka
in it. So you don't look for instance, at sometimes it's natural to notice that you have two cartons
or three cartons of milk.
		
00:08:49 --> 00:09:28
			But without greed, how many metal helmet how much milk do we have? Is it half? Is it one quarter?
Right? How much did you drink all Hamdulillah? At least I have one left? It says don't look at it
like that. How much how much barley do we have? How much we do have? How much? One bag two bags? Is
it half a bag, he says don't look with such concern and what you own. Because if you weigh it, if
you count, right, then it will run out quickly. Because there is no Baraka in it. But if you just
look the other way, and you use it and you keep using it, they will be more Baraka in what you have.
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:59
			As the Prophet sallallahu wasallam said, well to see for you see the WHO ALEC is and don't count and
as when you give, don't count meaning dollar $2 Right $3 Are you counting and it's hard for you to
get lulled to sleep, don't count and limit what you give. Because if you do Allah will count and
limit what he gives you. That if you give in abundance, Allah gives you what in abundance if you
restrict your
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:47
			Giving, then the giving will be restricted when it comes your way, right? And I thought maybe also
another benefit, so insha Allah and Allah, this is really, I mean, for me it was an important
lesson. That is, don't look with concern and greed at what you have. But let it let it be, and use
it and let others in your family use it or not mine in yours, let him use it there will be more
Baraka in it. And I thought maybe an added benefit in it for those who use social media if you post
right? Don't look at how many likes and views and engagements you have. There'll be no Baraka in it
posted if it's for Allah sake posted, and don't look back.
		
00:10:49 --> 00:11:03
			Right? It fits right. I think it fits Allah Allah. But if it's true, it will free you from the
pressure of they liked it or didn't like it. And they will be more baraka and it will lower them.
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:37
			Now, the next one, the next chapter, baboon cave, again, I shouldn't be Sal, Allahu Allah, you're
sitting them was HERBIE, he went to Hawaii, him and it dunya he says, How was the living of the
prophets of Allah? It was how they used to live, the Prophet and the companions, and how did they
forsake the dunya? Leave it behind them not care for it, that they want to tell us how. So hear the
story is the story of Abu Hurayrah. He's the narrator of the Hadith, kind of the main figure in it.
		
00:11:38 --> 00:12:24
			And he says about himself, he says Allah He, Lolita EDA Illa, who is swearing by Allah by saying by
Allah, the One who there is no Eli, but he says he just really wants you to listen and understand
what he went through. And this incident in control Itami Adobe cabbie the analog the minute jewel,
he says out of hunger, I used to lie on the ground. Okay, my stomach against the ground out of
hunger. They said why did he used to do this he said either because he used to faint, and he used to
faint. Le Allahu Anhu out of hunger, or because he would be so hungry, he would press his stomach
against the floor
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:44
			against the ground, right. Explaining any and the next part of it explains it more. We're in control
should do Hijra about naming a jewel. And I used to tie fasten and tie a stone around my stomach or
on my stomach and then fasten it around, out of hunger.
		
00:12:46 --> 00:13:11
			Ye, when you're too hungry, you need something to press your stomach inward. And they say that if
you are really hungry, you can stand up straight. Alright, if you are really angry like you, your
stomach is really empty. You cannot stand up straight. So it was the habit of the Arabs who used to
experience hunger that they would take stones, put them on their stomachs and tie something around.
		
00:13:12 --> 00:13:14
			And there was a hadith when
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:20
			the prophets always send them came out once and he met Abu Bakr and Omar.
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:22
			And
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:31
			Abu Bakr had a stone that He had tied around his stomach Omar had a stone that He tied upon his
stomach, the prophets of salaam had to
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:55
			in both three, meet the three, all three were hungry, and they had to use that in order just to
suppress their hunger and be able to stand up straight. So he said, I used to do this, either use
the ground to press against my stomach or have a stone and wrap that around my body. I'm on my
waist.
		
00:13:57 --> 00:14:25
			And he said well, I've got ca to Yeoman. Allah authority him under the road and I'm in and he says
one of those days I sat at the path that they used to take me when people used to take from the
masjid or out of the masjid or a common path that they would walk from Robert Greene Fussell to an
18 millimeter Biller, he makes the ultimate lol you should be earning. It says Abubaker passed. And
I asked him about an idea from the book of Allah ISIS. I didn't ask him except so that he would feed
me.
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:28
			He did he did. He asked him for food.
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:53
			No, right. Ken that's the honor of Abba hora. You're all the Elana. You know how hungry he was? So
he sat there and a worker passes and he asked him a religious question. He said I didn't ask him a
religious question to know the answer. I asked him so that after he answers that he would say what,
follow me home so that he could feed him
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:59
			if that's what he wanted, but he was too honorable to say please give me
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			Have a daddy
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:14
			either to read. It's a sign that he wants to. It's an implicit request, but it's not an explicit
one. So he doesn't embarrass anyone and does not demean himself. He's just asked
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:49
			Allah for Murwillumbah Lee says he passed and he did not take me with them. They say why did he not?
He says he didn't know. He just thought it was a question and he kept going. Or they said that he
didn't have food. So that's another possibility. For mumble Robbia amorphous alto on 18 mykita
Billahi masa alto Illa you should be any former Rafa Mia fan and Omar pass and I asked him a
question about an Ayah from the book of Allah I only asked him so that he would take me and feed me
and he didn't do that. Again for the same reasons he didn't know.
		
00:15:50 --> 00:16:17
			Full mama Robbie Abul Qasim sallallahu alayhi wa sallam who Isabel Carson Qasim the prophets Allah
lucid right by the Fatah sama Hina. Ani, he smiled when he saw me well out of the Matthew Neff CEO,
Matthew OGN. He knew what was with me and what was with my face, kind of he recognized that you are
hungry. He knew he knew that from him. So he smiled. So he said about here.
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:34
			Okay, about here, you called him. And that is a beautiful name to call Abu Hurayrah or the Allahu
unreasonable Hora era, but you call him Abba here, as a soft, sweet name is says I am here on
Messenger of Allah. He says, Follow.
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:51
			Follow me. While mobile further bear to further Hala faster than the unity. He says. Then he entered
his house. Then I asked for permission to enter and he gave me permission. Carla forwarded the
Lebanon via cada. So he found milk in a bowl.
		
00:16:52 --> 00:17:15
			So he said, Where's this? Where did this milk come from? They said so and so gave it as a gift to
you. So and so a male or female gave it as a gift for you. He said about her. I said I'm here or
messenger of Allah. He said it helped me that I had a sofa for whom Lee is his go to Allah sofa and
invite them.
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:20
			I will have a law says what Hello sofa have the full Islam.
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:53
			The people of sofa are the guests of Islam. He says they don't have a family and they don't have
money and no one to take care of. So who are the people of a sofa that are going to be invited to
the house of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam these are migrants. They arrived to Medina. So
they have no family to support them and give them presidents and they have no money and they have
nothing with them. So where's the only place for them to stay? The Masjid?
		
00:17:54 --> 00:18:04
			The Masjid. So no residents no money, no family they saw the only state in the masjid and the
prophets Allah Allah Allah wa salam.
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:16
			As he explains here, either either to sadaqa Bertha, Bihar ala him if he receives a sadaqa the
Prophet receives a sadhaka he channels that to them, he takes him sends it to them
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:29
			what either one of me at dinner will mean her she and he doesn't eat anything, any of it. So sadhaka
the prophets Allah Salam does not take ye either to Hadiya to in Orissa, la la hemo Casa Minha
Ashoka home fee
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:48
			and if he receives a gift, he will send some of that to them and He will keep some to himself. So a
gift he will be a partner in that but a sadhaka will be entirely given by a given to them. So he
says invite the people of a sofa
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:53
			so he says for Sir Any Dalek he says that bothered me
		
00:18:54 --> 00:19:22
			that request from the profits it seldom bothered me sir Annie that for her to Omaha that Lebanon had
a sofa it says what how is this milk gonna satisfy all the people have a sofa going to a Haku Anna
and we'll see I mean how the Lebanese shoulder button at the Power BI says I was more worthy to get
some of their milk at least one sip that will what nourish me Give me strength
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:58
			for either a moron if upon two or three him and then after that I can bring them and I can serve and
I can give to them. But first I and then what? them because I'm here already. And I am so
desperately hungry. Right? Well not I certainly had no one even had a Leben but if you invite all of
them, will I get any of it? That's what he's saying to himself. But he says Willem yocan Minta
Atilla he will talk it rasuluh he but but I had no option except to obey Allah and obey His
messengers to the Lord he was right
		
00:19:59 --> 00:19:59
			here
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:08
			Subhan Allah and Abu Hurayrah did he like that command so much? No. But he followed it right.
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:25
			And so Allah's commands and the prophets, Allah Salam commands are not always going to make sense to
you by the way, like like here you will see the outcome you may already know it, they're not always
going to make sense to you. And they're not always going to be appealing.
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:40
			But then if you say to yourself as he said, I have to follow Allah and His Messenger SallAllahu
wasallam and you put their command first, you will get the best of this dunya and in the Akira, even
though this is not to your liking
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:48
			you with me? And he not every single command that you will find in the Quran and the Sunnah you say?
There's something I like.
		
00:20:49 --> 00:21:32
			Some of these things are hard. Some of these things are difficult. Some of these things are things
you do not understand. Some of these things might be things that you say they bother me, but if you
follow you'll understand. So what is what happens? Well, if I take the home further out to home for
Akbar Rufus the other no four I think in Allah home, he invited them they entered the house, while
huduma Jalisa home then that then they sat down. And the prophets Allah Sillim Cydia, Abba here to
the bakery rasool Allah, he said take and give them to drink. Khalifa tool pada. So I took this bowl
and I keep an effigy out to Lt here module for shabu, hot, dry summer, yada, yada yada today I would
		
00:21:32 --> 00:22:05
			give it to one man, he would drink from it until he is full, then he would give it back to me. Then
I give him the next person and he will drink from it until he is full and he gives it back to me and
so on and so on. Had 10 days to Elon Nibi until I mean a fed everybody everybody drank until the
prophets Allah wa salam was left and everybody was full. So I gave it to the Prophet sallahu sin
upon the father who Allah ad. See, he took this ball and he put it on his hand. Then he looked at me
and smiled and he said about him.
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:24
			It says if he's telling you, I know what you're thinking, right? And it's coming your way I know
what you're thinking. So it says I'm here are prophets of Allah. He says about 30 to an hour and I
in your left. He said, you just spoke the truth or messenger of Allah. He said sit down and drink.
		
00:22:25 --> 00:23:06
			So he says for CA two for sheriff two I sat down and I drank for coalition. He says drink like when
he stops, it says drink so he would drink from Azalia coalition ability to drink, no drink. No, keep
drinking, had the culture until I sit down with the batha will Hakima do the homeless liquor is by
the one who had sent you the truth. I can't fit any more inside. That's it. I'm like very full.
That's it. Allah for any hurry, show me hydrosol show them the ball. Allah for heartlight Okada
color for Hamid Allah He praised Allah azza wa jal, he said Bismillah will shed evil favela and he
drank what has remained in it.
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:22
			So obviously this is a what do you call it? A mirage is a fever from Allah azza wa jal, his
prophets, Allah Allahu Allah who earlier was in them that all of them drank from the same bowl, and
all of them God full drinking from that.
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:38
			But the baraka here, is the baraka of listening to the prophets of Allah, Allah Who Ali was, had a
boo Hooray era. And he would never do this, but had Abu Hurayrah decided, no, I will not listen, he
would have missed all of this.
		
00:23:39 --> 00:24:06
			But he said, I listen to Allah and a listen to His Messenger SallAllahu wasallam. And he saw this
miracle with his own eyes. And seeing something like this increases your Eman tremendously and
increases your certainty in the prophethood of Muhammad sallahu wa salam tremendously, but it
requires of you what faith and sacrifice and willingness to follow. And then Allah will show you
more than what you've expected.
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:54
			And it tells you about the hardship that all of them went through, including Abu Hurayrah that he
would be so hungry, as we said that he would fall down and faint, or that he would have to tie
stones around his stomach or the Allahu Anhu out of hunger. But none of these things dissuaded them
from following the truth or following the commands of Rasul Allah, He is Allah Allah you Erdi was
salam, none of that. So hardship, no matter who you are, will come your way. The fact or the thing
is that you'd have to expect it and adjust your expectations to that you will understand that no
matter what happens, Allah is more precious and Iman is more precious. And if you hold on to that,
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:59
			eventually that hardship will disappear. Sickness will go away.
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:20
			Poverty will go away. distress of any kind will go away. And what remains is Iman and your trust in
Allah azza wa jal, this is what happened with them. So it's it's beautiful to hear. But as you
experience it, remember these stories that's where we're telling these stories and their life
		
00:25:21 --> 00:25:36
			as we want that when we experience hardship, to remember what they've gone through, and follow the
same path and say, they survived it and Insha Allah, by the will of Allah and His help, we will be
also we will be of those who are survivors as well.
		
00:25:39 --> 00:25:46
			Now, I mean there's some other benefits in it insha Allah but this is, this is plenty insha Allah
and commenting about the story.
		
00:25:48 --> 00:25:51
			And next Hadith or the next,
		
00:25:52 --> 00:25:53
			Missy qualite.
		
00:25:54 --> 00:25:56
			Statement of the sahabi
		
00:25:57 --> 00:25:59
			comes from sad, if not of your costs.
		
00:26:00 --> 00:26:18
			And he said says about himself. In Neela O'Toole Arabi Rama visa I mean visa vie Lila, and he says
I'm the first among the Arab to throw an arrow for the sake of Allah azza wa jal meaning that he
among the Hmong was among the first to be sent in one of these
		
00:26:19 --> 00:27:10
			Saraya and in that small set iya he threw an arrow and was the first arrow to be thrown for the sake
of Allah as of June so he says that about himself was a tuna Natsu and I remember as I we went, I
witnessed us now kazoo going on in jihad. Woman annata on Illawarra cool who blatty who had a summer
when we were going on Jihad traveling for jihad. He says we had no food except leaves of particular
thorny trees and plants. There's when they traveling, they have no food with them. So what's the
only food that they eat? There will be some thorny plants. They will take those leaves and they will
eat that. That's the only thing that they ate. And he says we're in had another layover. Okay,
		
00:27:10 --> 00:27:22
			Matata Asha Tamala. Who killed he says, Because of eating that, when we relieve ourselves, we have
droppings or we excrements like the droppings of sheep.
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:57
			I don't know if you've seen droppings of sheep, you know how round it is? Right? So he says when we
would relieve ourselves, our excrements look like that because of how hard and dry our food is. Like
animals, right? So you can describe it. I couldn't understand how difficult it was on their bodies.
And when you when you just read this, you can read it and you know, and keep reading. But imagine if
you were to eat like this, Allahu Allah, how many days and weeks what will it do to your body?
		
00:27:58 --> 00:28:07
			What pain you may have, what discomfort you may experience, how do you sleep? How do you wake up how
it messes up your message your biology.
		
00:28:08 --> 00:28:10
			But they endured
		
00:28:11 --> 00:28:47
			and they were patient because the sacrifice was something greater. So it's panela if the thing that
you're sacrificing for is great and beloved, you can sacrifice so he says to me, so Moskva had been
no asset in two Azizullah to zero in Al Islam and then Ben will acid the children of acid after all
of this are trying to teach me Islam clip to eat and hold on Alyssa then misguided I am and lost in
his my effort. What's Radi Allahu Anhu is describing is that later on, he becomes a mural Kufa
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:49
			the prince of Kufa
		
00:28:50 --> 00:28:53
			and bento Asad is a tribe is an Arab tribe.
		
00:28:54 --> 00:29:16
			And its history was that after the death of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam many of them apostate it
and they followed a an imposter who claimed prophethood but then they repented. They became good
Muslims and then a lot of them moved to El Kufa in Iraq. Saudi Arabia Waqas became the Emir in Kufa
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:20
			and then after some time, they started to complain about him.
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:28
			And one of these complaints, right, which obviously was a lie was that he doesn't know how to pray.
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:31
			Salah right, he doesn't know how to play.
		
00:29:32 --> 00:29:59
			That's why Sodom ABI Waqqas are the Allahu Anhu is saying he says, Do do you know right of my
history? Like how early my Islam was. I'm the first person to throw an arrow for the sake of Allah
azza wa jal in our cassava in our jihad, we used to throw this go through all this and then you come
and tell me and you trying to teach me Islam to you
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:27
			either misguided him that if I don't know how to pray after all of this, if I don't know Islam after
all of this, so the question that some ask here is that how is it done Saddam our cause can brag
about this? How could he was not supposed to brag, right? It said this, what is the intent behind
it? If the intent behind it is not arrogance, but rather to prove what is right, and does disprove
what is wrong, you are allowed to do this.
		
00:30:28 --> 00:30:46
			Right? And if somebody as as a, as a scholar, let's say, and he arrives in a place, and a lot of
them are are ignorant, and they're not learning from him, he's allowed to say, I know so much and so
much of the Quran and so much and so much of the Sunnah Otmar and my
		
00:30:48 --> 00:31:17
			teachers are this and this and this and this, he is allowed to describe his excellence so that they
would learn from him. So if the intent is good, it's allowed, but dragging for the sake of what
elevating yourself and arrogance is haram. But if you do it for good reasons, and that's allowed,
and said, ignore we will cost did it for a good reason on all the Allahu Anhu but again, that part
about the hardship that they experienced in beginning of Islam is what
		
00:31:18 --> 00:31:25
			is what is intended from Al Bukhari Rahim Allah in inclusion of that statement from said
		
00:31:29 --> 00:31:31
			the following ones
		
00:31:32 --> 00:31:33
			are similar
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:52
			in that they described the food of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam and his family so I Aisha said my
shabby Eid will Hamid in mundo de mal Medina, the mentor Army brintellix in Tibet and Hata COVID is
the family of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam never had their full
		
00:31:53 --> 00:32:33
			whenever God full of wheat three days, three consecutive days from the time that he came to Medina
until his death, Salado said that they did not have enough wheat, Jonnie Hubbs. Bread. That's what
it is, right? So they did not have enough of it for three days consecutively. From the time he came
to Medina, and for 10 years for time, he came to me till his death. So that if they had enough
bread, let's say or enough wheat for one day, or if they had it for one day, and the next day
wouldn't have it for the third.
		
00:32:34 --> 00:32:54
			So that's it. Right? So that's how little they have. So they used it for one day. That was it. If
they use it for two days, that's it. But three days of bread or three days of wheat, there's
nothing. So if you go and they'll open the cupboard of the prophets, Allah Salam in his home,
they're not be enough for three days.
		
00:32:55 --> 00:33:34
			Right? And hamdulillah hamdulillah from Al Hamdulillah Al Hamdulillah. We'll open our pantry is open
our fridges, what do we have it for a week and more. And it's not a problem. Even if you don't have
it, you can just go drive, get it and come back. So the idea of not having enough is really very,
very foreign to us. very foreign to us, you know how we panicked during the pandemic because of lack
of food, chicken, what are we going to get chicken right? So it's the idea of not having enough
that's very foreign to us, but that he would open is not enough in there to feed them for more than
two days. Now.
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:52
			He should I should also continue and she said that's a different generation Michael and Mohammed in
at Latini Fionn Illa he the whole matter. He said the amount of Muhammad the family of Muhammad
Sallallahu wasallam it didn't eat two meals a day except that one of them had to be dates.
		
00:33:53 --> 00:34:08
			Success the least. So if they eat let's say for instance, red the other one is what dates if there
is meat in one of them. The other one is dates. Again, that's the very basic of food that you could
find in Medina.
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:58
			And he also she said that all the Allahu Anhu Kenneth Eros rasool Allah He sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam mean Damian will hush will whom will leave she said the bedding or the mattress of Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was from leather. So animal height, that was that was tent. So animal
hide that was tan and is stuffed with palm fiber. So you take the fiber, right from the palm tree,
you take the fiber and there is this height or this leather you would stuff it. So it and that is it
that his his bedding Sallalahu it you know he was in there how simple that was very simple. And even
though it is not as hard as the floor. It still is not that soft, soft enough, but it's still not
		
00:34:58 --> 00:34:58
			that soft.
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:01
			and also
		
00:35:02 --> 00:35:06
			oh okay this is from Anna sub nomadic then we come to Asia again.
		
00:35:07 --> 00:35:50
			So Qatada said called Hakuna tea and a sub nomadic in Wahhabism, who called him he says you will use
to visit and a sub nomadic or the Allahu Anhu and the one the Baker and his Baker is standing beside
him the one who's making the bread and baking the bread standing beside him will call the Kulu and
he would say eat from her animal Nebia subtle Allahu Allah He was a murderer or thief and Moroccan
hatherleigh hyperbola he says, I don't know that the prophets a lot of you sent them saw a flat soft
bread until he passed away. wallarah Schatten semitone behind here called, and he did not see a
sharp
		
00:35:51 --> 00:35:52
			semitone behind here.
		
00:35:54 --> 00:35:56
			Again, what's the SHA? You know that
		
00:35:58 --> 00:36:02
			a sheep is likely to fail. I don't know why that scared me. So a sheep, right.
		
00:36:04 --> 00:36:11
			Roasted sheep. But what's what is Summit? Summit is a sheep that had been
		
00:36:12 --> 00:36:45
			treated so that you would remove all of its hair. You know how for instance, you've probably seen it
with chicken, they dip it in hot water, they removed all the feathers, and then they sell it or they
cook it they do something similar with the sheep they put it in hot water so that they could remove
the hair. Okay, the fur of the animal and then they would roast it and barbecue it that is shot
semitones it is a you never saw that in his with his own eyes ever. So I do not know it could be
that when they roasted. They didn't do this.
		
00:36:46 --> 00:36:56
			Right? They tried their best with all their own hands or they skinned it or what but they didn't do
this and they just roasted it. So whatever they ate was very simple.
		
00:36:58 --> 00:37:08
			Untreated, right? Very simple and untreated. You wouldn't imagine eating something like that today.
Right? And our palate would not accept it.
		
00:37:09 --> 00:37:19
			But that's what he said. Bahama Hola, right. So there was no tickle of in the meals of the prophets.
Allah Allah wa salam it was very, very simple time.
		
00:37:20 --> 00:37:23
			She says Aisha Radi Allahu Anhu in the next
		
00:37:25 --> 00:37:53
			statement. Carla, can I add to Elena Shaha Romano petofi kinara a month would pass. We wouldn't
light a fire in Omaha tomorrow Wilma. We would only eat water or drink water and eat dates.
Inaudible Lehane ale unless we would we be gifted a little bit of meat. So whole month without fire
in the house. So what are you eating every day?
		
00:37:54 --> 00:38:00
			Dates, water and dates second, water and dates third water and dates try
		
00:38:01 --> 00:38:11
			try it right now. Even water in dates just pick one meal. Just pick one thing. Peanut butter and
jelly right? Whatever you want to just pick one thing
		
00:38:12 --> 00:38:18
			and try eating it every single day. lunch dinner lunch dinner lunch dinner lunch dinner what happens
to
		
00:38:20 --> 00:38:21
			AI can you imagine it?
		
00:38:23 --> 00:38:38
			Can you imagine it even something as soft as white bread peanut butter and jelly Can you just
imagine that is a kind of dye give me something else I need some meat says okay dates and water
dates and water dates and water that's an entire month.
		
00:38:39 --> 00:38:46
			Right? inaudible to him unless somebody gives us a little bit of me they will eat that and that is
it.
		
00:38:47 --> 00:39:28
			So you understand that they were not men and women of the dunya it he didn't wake up thinking about
what am I going to eat today? Planning your meal right? Or for instance you know you watched I'm not
condemning this I'm just contrasting or you're watching you know how to cook meals online and you go
on and you buy the ingredients and you cook it again it's not haram but I'm just telling you that
contrast this to that. Are you watching food videos and you say oh yeah, I want to cook this pasta
and this pizza and this that and this that and you're thinking about next week I'm gonna go to this
restaurant and try this new cuisine and right the not men and women of the dunya that's not what
		
00:39:28 --> 00:39:38
			occupies them and the the prophets of Allah Islam as I said about them authentically, he would pass
by the house do you have food today? No, I'll fast
		
00:39:39 --> 00:40:00
			that's it the food not like do you have that particular dish that I like? Did you make it? No. Do
you have anything? No, fine, I'll fast. Yes, he'll eat it. What did what is what is available dates.
So, again, it's good Subhanallah so just so you appreciate the name of Allah
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:51
			isodiol So, that also you understand that at one point, I think Allah Allah at one point in the
future of this world and in the future of Muslims, we would have to re experience some of this
hardship in order to restore justice to this world. Right? Yeah, and if not us, the next generation
or the next generation, that they will have to experience real hardship in order for the truth to
come back. So, you can be enjoying you know, all these things, all these luxuries and think that all
we will Yes, we will command good and forbid evil and with comfort, it can be there has to be real
discomfort coming our way, if we want the right thing to happen. So, just so that at least mentally
		
00:40:51 --> 00:40:55
			right mentally, if not even physically, but at least mentally to be ready for it.
		
00:40:57 --> 00:41:00
			The next one is Aisha she says to Ottawa
		
00:41:01 --> 00:41:27
			if no tea he says my nephew son of my sister in canola number oil healer etha he let in future
Hurricane Wilma, okay, that EBIT? Rasulullah he not he said we used to look at the halal three
Hillels in three months in two months, meaning the beginning of the month, the beginning of the next
month and the beginning of the third month meaning one healer to heal three healers, right two
months.
		
00:41:29 --> 00:42:15
			And there would be no fire lit in the house of the prophets of Allah he was sitting him so he says,
What sustained you any lower now, wonders? See, see, things changed even from when it came to the
tablet in things really change that he had to ask them? What sustained you i for two months there
will be no fire in your house? What did you eat? How did you live? She said a sedan a terminal
Walmart he says this dates and water Illa Inaho except that the prophets OLALIA Salam had neighbors
that were unsolved what can Allah homeowner and used to have camels that they would milk? Well can
we even know how not to swallow him in abbiati and fire Spina and they used to give give us some
		
00:42:15 --> 00:42:15
			time.
		
00:42:17 --> 00:42:34
			Milk and the prophets Allah wa salam would feed us that for two months meaning sometimes we would
have some camel milk otherwise it's dates and water dates and water. And that was enough for them
and the last in this chapter insha Allah
		
00:42:35 --> 00:42:44
			and fortnight between Allah azza wa jal is that the prophets of Allah Azza wa sallam he said Allah
who murders of Allah Mohammed in Kota.
		
00:42:45 --> 00:42:56
			He said the Allah provide a good a sufficient food and drink for the out of Mohammed. And in another
narration, it says Allahumma Jahan,
		
00:42:58 --> 00:43:46
			Allah maganda Risca Ali Mohammed in your Allah make the provision of Allah Muhammad, put the hood is
what is sufficient for them. Now more and not less. And that is here one of the evidence that some
scholars consider in stating that it's not poverty that is best, or being rich that is best, but
having sufficient, sufficient e food and drinks sufficient money for your day, they see because that
avoids the excesses and the dangers of poverty, and wealth. If you don't have money, you don't have
food, you don't have enough, you're thinking about it. Because you're hungry. You don't have enough
for your bills, you don't have enough to feed your children. So your mind is preoccupied, your heart
		
00:43:46 --> 00:44:34
			is preoccupied. So it's hard for you to worship Allah azza wa jal, with clarity with ease. And if
you have a lot more than that needs of that particular day, you're worried about it. You're about
the extra dollar, the extra food that you have. But if you have enough for your day, then you can
eat you can drink you but could be sufficient. And then you could give the rest to Allah assuming
your attention. The rest of Allah as though done and the next day will bring its own provisions. So
each day will have its provision. So he's prayed sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that of Muhammad will
have sufficient sufficiency, not blessed and not more, and they would said he would only ask for the
		
00:44:34 --> 00:44:35
			best for them.
		
00:44:36 --> 00:45:00
			If you wish something for your family, for your children, you wish for the best. She said the who
would only wish for the best for them. That's the what they said it is the best. Keeping in mind
also at the same time, that is among the slaves of Allah as that had meaning among people are those
who need more poverty than wealth, and only poverty works
		
00:45:00 --> 00:45:00
			for them,
		
00:45:01 --> 00:45:08
			and there are Hmong people are those who need wealth more than poverty and only wealth works for
them.
		
00:45:10 --> 00:45:20
			And Allah oxygen knows best. Right? So that's why Allah one of the reasons why Allah azza wa jal
varies the provisions among people is that, and this is an author.
		
00:45:21 --> 00:45:25
			It's not a hadith as an author. But it says that among my
		
00:45:26 --> 00:45:36
			slaves are those who if I give them money, it will corrupt them. And among my slaves, or those whom
if I take money from them, it will corrupt them.
		
00:45:37 --> 00:46:20
			So for some people, if they poor, it doesn't really work for them. But if they are rich, they're
pious, and they are giving and they are generous and the opposite. Those who when they are poor,
they're close to Allah as the origin, but if give them money, it will play with their heads. So
Allahu Allah, and I'm not there's not one single thing that works for everybody here and that's why
Allah azza wa jal varies in his in his provisions Subhana wa Taala so as we sit in sha Allah we will
pause the series between Allah azza wa jal and we will return after Ramadan after Eid in sha Allah
so let's see inshallah if you have questions or things you would want to add or want to add
		
00:46:20 --> 00:46:21
			inshallah let me know
		
00:46:23 --> 00:46:26
			when it comes to love it a good way yeah
		
00:46:28 --> 00:46:29
			noncom
		
00:46:31 --> 00:46:31
			now
		
00:46:37 --> 00:46:39
			withdrawal all of these exists
		
00:46:47 --> 00:46:48
			wonder No.
		
00:46:50 --> 00:47:32
			So hey, so Hey Zack Allah here. So a brother explains here that he lives next to a supermarket and
he says every night when he goes back home he notices that they throw out all the excess all the old
bread you said bread and milk crew are only bread, bread, so all the old bread, they throw it away
in the dumpster. So he says consider how much excess we have and how much we waste. There is a lot
of food that we waste. So Subhanallah we don't recognize the name and again because we have a lot of
it. And when you have a lot of something that you don't realize the importance of every single thing
that you have not until what you lose it and then you start dreaming and think about remember the
		
00:47:32 --> 00:47:52
			time when we used to have so much and we used to be ungrateful and we would throw it away and now I
wish I could see this and taste that so Zach Allah here this is this is a good reminder that an
emulator Doom NEMA doesn't last and if you don't preserve it, and if you don't protect it, it will
slip away from our hands Nautica Lovick.
		
00:48:06 --> 00:48:07
			Say
		
00:48:08 --> 00:48:09
			say
		
00:48:16 --> 00:48:43
			Musab says I can look at so I just your comment first looks I'll repeat it so that people will hear
it. He said Zala here is that the reason why the Sahaba Radi Allahu Anhu. Were saying that the
Prophet never saw this and that is that they acquired new lands. And with that new came new wealth
and new ways of doing things. So they saw new things and more luxuries that the prophets
Alehissalaam never saw. And that is absolutely true. They saw new food, right?
		
00:48:45 --> 00:49:04
			More luxury, more were more money. So the prophets always send them in the early companions never
saw any of that. But of course, they and then their children are seeing it. And they want to remind
them that the way we started wasn't like this magic law. Now I'm the life of Mossad. It blew me
		
00:49:06 --> 00:49:17
			out of the Allahu Anhu he says we said we mentioned his story. I mentioned a little bit about him
last week, when we said that he had on the Allahu Anhu
		
00:49:18 --> 00:49:59
			is an example of those who died early and did not get anything back. From his Hijra from his Islam.
He didn't see money, he didn't see wealth. He didn't see glory he died in the battle of all the
Allahu Anhu. So Musab was a very early Muslim, very early Muslim. So he used to meet among the early
Muslims in Darwin or come and they would discuss Islam and learn it and worship Allah azza wa jal so
very early Muslim and he is noted to have come from a wealthy family. In he lived in luxury does it
is it is said that if most ignore OMA your weight, come
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:09
			He would know that he is coming from the perfume that he had on. So his mother would spoil him all
the Allahu anhu, the best clothes and the best of perfume.
		
00:50:11 --> 00:50:24
			But he yet wanted to accept Islam. And he accepted Islam. And his mother gave him an ultimatum.
Either you accept Islam, I mean, either you reject Islam, or I deny you all of this,
		
00:50:25 --> 00:50:26
			all of that money.
		
00:50:27 --> 00:50:38
			And all of a sudden, Masaba No, Amelia became panelists, he didn't have anything because he said,
No, I want to continue to be Muslim. So they took all of that money away.
		
00:50:39 --> 00:51:09
			And he lived without it in hardship and in poverty, or the Allahu Anhu in Makkah, and then he had to
migrate to El Habesha, to be skinnier and in their right, you know, to run away with family with his
religion, and he stayed there. And then he came back to Makkah. And when the good news from Medina
were starting to come, that there were people were interested in Islam.
		
00:51:10 --> 00:51:30
			And a delegation came and then another delegation came the prophets a lot he was sent them sent Musa
IGNOU Omega to teach them Quran. So he was the first teacher, alo alum who was sent to Medina to
teach them Quran. And he taught them Quran over there.
		
00:51:31 --> 00:52:15
			And when the battle of of Hood came, he was carrying the lever or the flag, or the banner of Muslims
in the battle. And he was killed in it. And as we said, in the Hadith, that when they wanted to
shroud him they wanted to find a Katherine for him. The only thing that he had was an EMI era was
just a clothing, a piece of clothing, that was square, not long enough to cover the whole body. If
you cover the head, the legs would be exposed or the feet would be exposed. You cover the feet, the
head would be exposed. That's the only thing that he had. The only thing that he owned, well, the
Allah No. And so the prophets Allah Allah wa salam said no cover the head and put some grass to
		
00:52:15 --> 00:53:00
			cover his feet or the Allah No. So that's an example of someone and I think Allah annum but not 100%
Sure he was in his 40s when he died. So probably I'm thinking that when he accepted Islam, he was
young. He was a young man when he accepted Islam. And when he rejected the traditions of his family
and their pressure, he was a very young man. Yet Allah azza wa jal felt better called Bowie
stabilized his heart, he confirmed his heart upon the truth, but he paid a price for it. And the
price is all that money and all that connections and all those connections and luxury went away as
soon as he said that either in Allah Muhammad Rasul Allah. And that's why hubbub is saying there are
		
00:53:00 --> 00:53:11
			some of us who migrated with the Prophet sallallaahu Salam and didn't get anything in return for it.
Most Ibis is one of them, he didn't see any sweetness of the dunya come his way out of
		
00:53:12 --> 00:53:27
			his decision to be Muslim. So as we said, some of us will be like that. And it does not diminish
you. And that's the case, you may give a lecture you may give Dawa, you may give sadaqa and you may
see nothing in return for it.
		
00:53:28 --> 00:54:05
			Right. But it doesn't diminish what you've given. And you shouldn't compare yourself to other
people. And you said, well, so and so. God followers are so and so. God good responses are so it
doesn't matter. If what you do is for Allah azza wa jal, you may or may not see something in return.
But what matters is that you've done it the lasagna, and sometimes as kebab was reminiscing,
sometimes not receiving anything back is better. Because then all of your reward is with Allah as
all of it right?
		
00:54:07 --> 00:54:14
			So that's what I have about Mossad political logic. Any other question that others you have?
		
00:54:16 --> 00:54:21
			I don't think so. Please, insha Allah so a reminder in sha Allah will be having a
		
00:54:22 --> 00:54:42
			lecture in sha Allah on Sunday about Ramadan beat nila, as xojo All is invited. It will be after
Makarov. Insha Allah. So we say Subhanak long way behind the shadow Allah and the stuff raka tubo
they could hamdulillahi rabbil Alameen we'll see you in sha Allah. Allah azza wa jal after apt Nila
work Alavi Samadhi
