00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			Inshallah, it's a blessed evening.
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:05
			We celebrate the birth of greatest human being
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:07
			who ever lived, will ever live,
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:09
			our master Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:13
			Just say a few things, inshallah. I don't
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			know any Farsi poetry, so
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:18
			I'll say a few things, inshallah. I'll quote
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			some.
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:20
			So,
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:23
			the the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam is
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:26
			our greatest benefactor from humanity,
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:29
			and he benefits us
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:31
			in all three stages of his
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:34
			life. I mean, there's there's more than 3
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			stages, but the 3 stages that we're familiar
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:36
			with
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:37
			is Hayat,
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:39
			dunyaawiyah.
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:41
			The prophet
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:43
			is when he was with the Sahaba,
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:47
			he was asking forgiveness for his ummah.
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:49
			So Allah
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:50
			says,
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:02
			It is part of the incredible mercy of
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:02
			Allah
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:06
			And there's so much emphasis in the Arabic.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			It's hard to even
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:09
			no translation is even close.
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:13
			It is the incredible, incredible mercy of Allah
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			that you have lean, you have gentleness.
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:19
			If you are harsh or hard hearted, ghalid
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:21
			alqalb, thick of heart, you would have seen
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			people flee from your presence.
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25
			This is very important,
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:26
			you know,
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:29
			to internalize the sunnah of the prophet salallahu
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31
			alaihi wasallam, especially with our families, especially men
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:34
			with wives. This is very very important. Women
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			are compromised physically.
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:38
			Men are more stoic than women, generally.
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:39
			And the prophet
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			he treated his wives with kindness, with mercy.
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:46
			This is extremely important. The inward sunnah.
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:56
			From his signs is that he made from
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			you spouses that you might live
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:02
			that you have sakina with your spouses.
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			The house is called a meskan.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:08
			It's a place of security for the woman.
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:10
			If she doesn't feel like her house is
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:11
			a place of security and safety,
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:14
			then the husband has failed in his duty
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:15
			of being a husband.
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:19
			This is extremely important. How did our mother
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			Ayesha
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:22
			Radhi Allahu Anha describe the prophet
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:24
			He
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			was
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:29
			a man from among the men.
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:31
			A great man.
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:36
			The prophet
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:38
			never ever used
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:42
			filthy language. He never threatened anyone in the
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:42
			household.
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:44
			He never used bad language.
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:45
			He never,
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:48
			scared his his wives, this type of thing.
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:50
			This is extremely important.
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:57
			If you had been harsh, people would have
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:58
			fled from you,
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:01
			you see. The prophet salallahu alaihi wa sallam,
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:02
			people did not flee from him.
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:05
			He brought people together. Look at his Sahaba.
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:07
			Where are they from? All over the world.
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:08
			Look at the Muslim Ummah.
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:11
			His message is uniting everybody. Many, many people
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:12
			in the West right now converting to Islam
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:13
			for different reasons.
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:17
			One reason is all of these amarata sa'a
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:18
			are coming true.
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:20
			Everything he says in this Even these Some
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:22
			of these hadith are very weak, but they
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:24
			come true. Of course, a weak hadith is
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:25
			not Mudur.
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:27
			There's just a little problem here and there.
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:29
			It's not a it's not an a plus
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:29
			hadith,
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:31
			but these things come true, and people are
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:33
			starting to notice these things.
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:36
			Forgive them.
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:39
			And the ulama say, Imam Al Razi
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:40
			says,
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:42
			forgive them for things that they do against
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:43
			you personally.
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:45
			But things that they do against Allah, ask
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:49
			forgiveness for them. Make Istighfar for them. The
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:51
			prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam in his life,
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:52
			his hayat, dunyaawiyah,
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:54
			was making istighfar of his ummah.
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:56
			Her mother Aisha said
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			that the prophet salallahu alayhi wasalam was standing
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:00
			all night. Qama,
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:03
			he was he was he was standing. The
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:03
			ayatan,
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:06
			layla, one ayah he was reciting the whole
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:06
			night.
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			One ayah into adhbhibhoomth
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:09
			inna whom
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:13
			the end of Al Maidah.
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:16
			If you forgive them, if you punish them,
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:17
			they are your servants.
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:19
			But if you forgive them, then you are
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:21
			great and wise. And she said he repeated
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:23
			his ayah over and over and over and
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:25
			over, then he collapsed into sajdah
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:29
			and heard him say, umati, umati, You Rab,
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:29
			umati.
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:33
			So he makes istighfar for his ummah during
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:33
			his life.
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:35
			He makes istighfar
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:38
			for his ummah and his hayat, and the
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:40
			life he is in now.
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:42
			So,
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:43
			what
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:45
			does Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala say in the
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:46
			Quran?
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:01
			That if only when they had wronged their
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:03
			theirselves, they had come to you
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:06
			and Allah subhan and they asked Allah subhanahu
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:07
			wa ta'ala for forgiveness,
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:10
			and then the messenger asked forgiveness for them,
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:12
			They would have found Allah,
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:15
			relenting and merciful.
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:18
			Go to the messenger of Allah salallahu alaihi
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:21
			salam. He's asking forgiveness for us.
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:24
			In his state right now, he's asking forgiveness
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:25
			for us.
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:28
			This hadith is sound hadith
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:32
			that your deeds are presented to me.
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:37
			If I see good, I praise Allah. If
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:37
			I
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:45
			kiyama,
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:48
			And then on the
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:52
			is Hayat Ukhrawiya.
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:54
			He asked forgiveness for his ummah.
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:58
			He is the shafi'i wal mushafa. He is
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00
			the intercessor and the one whose intercessor
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:03
			is accepted. And Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:05
			accept his intercession for his ummah.
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:08
			So first and foremost,
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:11
			let's increase in our love for the messenger,
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:13
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, and realize what he's
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:13
			done for us,
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:16
			and then we must internalize
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:18
			his sunnah. He said if the Dajjal comes
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:19
			to you,
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:22
			and I am among you,
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:24
			then I will contend with him.
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:27
			Right? But another way to read this is
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:29
			I am in you, I've internalized.
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:32
			You have internalized me.
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:35
			My sunnah is in you,
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:37
			right? My huluq is in you,
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:41
			my jamaal is in you, my jalal is
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:43
			in you. These things are within you, you've
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:45
			internalized them. Dajjal can't have any effect on
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:47
			you. I will contend on your behalf.
