They stress the importance of understanding the concept of no burden and the consequences of its implementation on individuals and communities. The conflict between the principle of no burden and the principle of no bearer of burdens is related to the transmission of sin and loss of people's concessions.

00:00:00 --> 00:00:00
			Breathing
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:12
			you said it was gonna be warm today.
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:14
			The weather
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:18
			is a bit chilly. But
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:41
			I mean, it actually brings me to a nice story actually, of a father, who's at work and it's nice,
the plane gets transferred one person, another person, were at work, he's really busy. He's having
problems at work with his colleagues. So he's stressed and he comes home. And because of his stress,
he puts on his wife, and he gives her a hard time.
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:56
			And then she gets annoyed by all of that, and stressed out and she takes it on her kids. And then
her kids, when he got there get stressed out by what her mom has told him off for no reason, and
then take out on the cat, and they kick the cat.
		
00:00:58 --> 00:00:59
			So I guess
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:03
			what are the 0102 with
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:08
			no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another.
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:23
			This is yet another example of the divine justice as laid out in these organic principles. This one
stresses that man will only be accountable for his own doings
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:35
			and not carrying the burdens of others. In fact, so central to our beliefs is this principle that it
was repeated in no less than five passages in the Quran surah to an iron
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:41
			Surah to an SR Surah to flatworm, Surah to Zoomer and Surah to najem.
		
00:01:42 --> 00:02:13
			And actually, this concept, this principle is captured in other scriptures as well. Allah subhanaw
taala said, I'm letting you not be Matthew, Sophie Musa, has he not been informed of what is in the
Scripture of Moses? What Abraham Allah the Wafaa and in and out of Abraham who fulfilled his
obligations, what was mentioned in them, Allah says, Allah tells you otherwise hirato was an orphan,
no bearer of burdens, will bear the burden of another.
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:19
			Now someone may ask the question here, does this principle not conflict with other teachings of the
Quran?
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:40
			Because Allah subhana wa Tada said about the people, when I find a home, what I find a matter of
finding him, they will carry their own burdens of sin, and they will carry the burdens of others
alongside their own. So, this idea among with other verses,
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:56
			how are we to understand that it actually addresses those who had become the cause of people since
by way of influence, so they will carry their abundance because it is as if it is as if it is their
own.
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:06
			They caused it Allah subhanaw taala said the Camino Ozora home cam unit and Yamaha piano. Well, I
mean, I was really the you know, you'll be living at home.
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:23
			They will bear their own burdens in full on the Day of Resurrection, and the burdens of those
mandamus guide without knowledge. That's the word you want to underline that they will carry the
burdens of those whom they miss GYN without knowledge they caused it.
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:33
			And it is for that exact reason that I've been the son of Prophet Adam and he said, Who slayed his
brother heavin
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:45
			He will receive a portion of the same of every unjust killing that happens till the end of time I
would have Allah. Why? Because he was the first in history to kill
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:48
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said,
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:57
			lay semi nevsun took 1001 map in Cana and Evany Adam and a well, he flown Windermere
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:18
			there is no person who is unjustly sname except that the first son of Adam will receive a portion of
its sin. And no ill will em and send them cotton because he was the first to introduce the act of
killing. So, in short, whilst we acknowledge that every human being is a sinner,
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:51
			the conscious way fairer to Allah will never allow himself to become a cause of someone else's sin.
I mean, just the thought of being asked about your own downfall, my own shortcomings, that's a
daunting a thought as it is, let alone being in need of finding answers for the sins of others who
can bear that. So that is how we understand the seeming contradiction between this principle that
says that you will not bear the burden of someone else and other verses that say they will carry
them and this
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:59
			one may pose a second question here. How are we to understand this principle of no bear
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:07
			Have burdens will bear the burden of another in light of punishments that affect entire communities
at times,
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:10
			punishments that affect the guilty and the innocent?
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:17
			The answer is that whenever an evil prevails amidst a community
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:31
			and Allah's punishment eventually arrives, its harm will affect both the doer of the evil, as well
as those who are able to address it, but chose not to do so.
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:47
			So genuinely speaking there Silence may Allah subhanho wa Taala forgive us, generally speaking,
their silence makes them complicit in the eyes of Allah. So the consequence of this divine
intervention encompasses everyone.
		
00:05:48 --> 00:06:00
			Allah subhanaw taala that he said, What duck will fit in that and that also even under the name of
Allah moanin Casa fear a trial Allah said, fearing a trial which will not strike those who have
wronged among you exclusively.
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:04
			And commenting on this area.
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:18
			Sheikh Assadi, he said that the trial that is mentioned in this verse affects the doer of the
wrongdoing and others. He says, This happens when wrongdoing spreads, but it is not addressed.
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:29
			As a result, the punishment of not doing so will affect both the door and others may Allah
haughtiness May Allah protect us and the Muslims in our families.
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:41
			This is also explained by the Hadith of the Prophet Alayhi Salatu was Salam. Listen carefully,
brothers and sisters sentence by sentence. He said in Allahu Allah, you asked me when I'm the
admiral tassel.
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:56
			Allah will not punish the masses of people due to the actions of a minority. Hector Yara will own
carabiner Bharani him till they see the evil happening in their mix.
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:12
			Well, how are you gonna either onion Guru Guru was being able to forbid it, yet they choose not to
do so. What happens for either value Derrick, if that happens, as of Allah who,
		
00:07:13 --> 00:07:17
			then both the minority minority and the masses are punished alike.
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:26
			Now in stark contrast to this principle, that no burden or no soul will bear the burden of another.
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:36
			Both the Old and New Testament seem to suggest that one is indeed accountable for the sins of
others, even if they had no part to play in it.
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:42
			A passage from the book of Numbers reads, that the Lord is slow to anger,
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:58
			abounding in love, and forgiving sin and rebellion, yet does not leave the guilty and punished
lesson. He punishes the children for the sin of their parents to the third and fourth generation.
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:01
			There is another passage,
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:27
			which negates the ability of a non Jew for entering the assembly of the Lord because of the harm
that a group had caused on Musa and so the punishment of doing so was passed down from generation to
generation. This is in Deuteronomy 23 Three, no ammonite, it means or Moabite, shall enter the
assembly of the Lord.
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:34
			None of their descendants, even to the 10th generation shall ever enter the assembly of the Lord.
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:47
			So these are examples of people who are transferring their deficiencies to generation to generation
we don't have that concept in our religion according to this principle that we are discussing.
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:50
			So that's as far as the
		
00:08:52 --> 00:09:22
			Jewish texts are concerned. As for Christianity, the doctrine of the original sin is core to their
belief system, which holds that humans through the fact of birth they inherit a tainted nature in
need of regeneration, and a proclivity to sinful conduct because of the original sin of Prophet
Adam. So In consequence, apparently, his sin and guilt were supposedly transmitted by heredity to
his descendants.
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:48
			So despite the difference in the final details between the Christian and Jewish traditions, they
essentially accept the transmission of sin and blame from one to another. And that a person is
indeed accountable for other people's doings, even with no involvement whatsoever. Most of the
times, on the other hand, they vehemently reject us. For so many reasons, I'm going to share with
you a few.
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:59
			One, it conflicts with the principle of no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. That's
the obvious one. Number two, it conflicts
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:09
			With Allah's Perfect justice, which necessitates that reward or punishment cannot be predicated on a
matter that is unrelated to you.
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:26
			Number three, it conflicts with our Prophet sallallahu. It was in its guidance, we said that there
are certain acts of worship, which if you do it, cause you to be forgiven, like the day his mother
gave birth to him. So it's clear that
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:28
			our original state
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:33
			is not upsetting, but it's seamlessness, like the day his mother gave birth there.
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:50
			it conflicts with one of the core purposes of revelation to encourage good deeds and abstinence from
sins, because why should a person pursue a good life? If he's going to end up being held accountable
for other people's crimes?
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:59
			Why should a person avoid sins is someone else's doings will erase my sins without needing to
repent?
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:17
			It also conflicts with our belief that Prophet Adam repented immediately after disobeying his Lord.
So his repentance was accepted. And his original sin was erased. Allah said wasa Adam,
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:21
			Adam disobeyed his Lord and strange
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:23
			doesn't stop there.
		
00:11:24 --> 00:11:30
			Some budget about horrible, terrible irony he were harder, then his node,
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:41
			chose him and turn to him in forgiveness and guide him. Ah, so according to Muslims, this was not a
lesson regarding the original sin.
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:46
			This is a lesson regarding original forgiveness.
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:48
			And here's the sixth point.
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:53
			It seems to also contradict passages from the Christian sources of knowledge.
		
00:11:55 --> 00:12:13
			It is mentioned in the book of Ezekiel 1820, that the Son shall not bear the guilt of the father,
nor the father belt bear the guilt of the Son, and the righteousness of the righteous will be upon
himself and the wickedness of the wicked will be upon himself. There's a similar passage in
Deuteronomy 2416.
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:27
			So some Christians, they may raise the objection, that these aren't passages from the New Testament.
These are passages from the Old Testament, but it remains that they're not older than Adam.
		
00:12:28 --> 00:12:32
			Whoever it was, who forged the idea
		
00:12:33 --> 00:13:23
			of sin transmission, our belief is that it was not Musa or ASA. Their true belief, as it's ours was
described by Allah, no bearer of burden will bear the burden of another. Moving on, it's interesting
because whilst every Muslim will verbally profess this principle, as being his belief, you know, I
will never pass down a blame that's not on someone. The actions of some people nevertheless refuted
where they do end up casting blame on the blameless and punishing those who are innocent. I'm going
to share with you a few final examples. A parent may reject the proposal of a righteous and well
mannered young man or young woman for reasons that are beyond their control or their choosing.
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:27
			So they suffer consequences that they had no part to play in.
		
00:13:28 --> 00:13:30
			Is this a valid course of action.
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:35
			Bearing in mind, the principle of no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another.
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:40
			That's second example, a husband may return home
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:54
			after a strenuous day at work, to vent his frustration at those who are unconnected to his stress
his wife for preparing later than usual dinner, any other petty matter.
		
00:13:56 --> 00:14:02
			Right, and he's just using that to mask and to cover up his work related anger. But he's
transmitting a sin or he transmitting
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:23
			a blame, or the wife, who then bends her anger and the innocent part of her children, and then they
go and they kick the cat, who's going to break the change. It's not a valid course of action.
Bearing in mind, the principle of no bearer of bad debt will bear the burden of another. A third
example, a teacher, who is under the weather,
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:31
			he falls out with another and as a result, puts their own feelings before the children's needs
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:36
			and unjustly weaponize their children against the spouse
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:39
			by preventing contact with the other parent.
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:55
			What is that? That is a transfer of guilt and blame onto an innocent party for not to be involved in
this. And this is a contradiction to this moronic principle. And I love the words of Sally and Boris
from the difference, and I will quote
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:59
			she said ladies and gentlemen, unless your child
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:48
			Old is at great risk of harm. And I don't mean different parenting styles. I mean, beaten, stop,
etc. Your children's relationship with the other parent host breakup is none of your business. You
don't own your child. Your child has the right to know its other parents, their other grandparents,
aunts, cousins, etc. like them or not. What you are doing is harming your child, you are stripping
them of their self beneath their truth, their identity. And then she says, Be the grown up. You
chose the other parent, you don't like them tough. Your job is to understand your child's needs are
not about you. What you risk one day is your child facing you and realizing they can't trust you to
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:56
			be honest and respect their needs. There are ways to manage this and she says, If you can't do it
between both of you get a coach.
		
00:15:57 --> 00:16:12
			If the partner doesn't do what you want them to do when you want it, then tough smile at your
children. Take a deep breath that your children believe their other parent loves them. That's your
job. Every time the other parent
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:23
			doesn't live up to your expectations. She said your child is learning to be patient to be kind
forgiving. And yes, sometimes they are learning how to handle this appointment.
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:38
			She says this is good because with you reassuring them that mom or dad really does love them. You're
teaching them resilience when they are 18 years old, you will never have to negotiate with the other
parent.
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:44
			That she concludes by saying that you want a child to feel strong in their identity
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:51
			get out of the way and let them know who and how they can be loved.
		
00:16:54 --> 00:17:07
			In short, this is a timeless and perfect for Anik principle an all encompassing concept the concept
which says that no bearer of valuable events that are overlapping
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:17
			were being
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:23
			held in as
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:25
			one
		
00:17:28 --> 00:17:29
			son
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:33
			obey shield Oh, oh
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:37
			well go
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:41
			follow up on holy thank God
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:44
			nice yeah.
