Wednesday night lectures at Clear Lake Islamic Center.
January 4, 2017
To discuss the province of colitis and lemon to learn more about loss of the lightest and lemon, we are in need of learning more and more about the profits of the lightest element. So, this topic of Shama is dedicated to knowing about the profit studying about his characteristics studying about his character even and studying about the things that are the hustla is of Rasulullah cellulitis and then his unique qualities whether they're physical unique qualities that Allah azzawajal gave him or whether they are what are called a hustla is officially here, which are the legal speciality is have also lost a lot of ideas and that meaning there are some things that are why'd you bomb the profits
the lightest and them that are not allowed you bought anybody else from his own. And there are some things that are hard for Russell the last the lightest them that are not headed for anyone else from his own. And there are some things that are held on for Russell the loss of the lightest and them that are not held on for anyone else in his oma and so for example of the things that are wide, your honor soon lost the lightness and the profit of some of the light they send them he says
that an alcohol was prescribed for me and it was not prescribed for you. Meaning here. We know that it is not something that's wired up on us. And hence Abubakar left the Altair one year just to show that it is not obligatory, however also the loss of the lightest and them says that it was a made obligatory for him and he says and also, salata aloha was made obligatory to me and it was not obligatory for you. And of the things that the enemy said was obligatory, Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi Salaam was a Tisha tahajjud, to pray in the night. And by the ayah, in which Allah zodat He says, Well, I mean a lady with the hijab behind I feel
as if Allah Muhammad Mahmoud, Allah commands have also lost a little light there send them to make the hijab in the night.
And so this is an example of things that are made obligatory on the prophets on the light cinema What are things that we're headed for a little lost on the lightest limb that we're not headed for anyone else?
You guys all know this was something that was headed for the process and I'm not for everybody.
More than four wise very good I'm more than for what that's that's also not just that he married more than four wives but the manner in which he married and so the prophets the lightest and him could marry a woman without actually because he was more of a windy than her when he was right he was more of a when he then her father or those who were entrusted with her.
Also of the things that were held on for a little loss on the lighter side of them that were permissible for everyone else was famously
as the guy and a sort of a very good so he can't take the cat which is the obligatory charity, he can't take it. And a sadhaka he can't take it nor can his family ticket. Elevate. And so Sandman and fantasy famously when he traveled to meet also last holiday send them on he traveled he was in Medina when the prophet SAW the light cinema arrived, but Sandman already had information and he had some signs to indicate whether this man was truly a prophet or not. And one of the things was that he was not a person who accepted sadaqa he accepted gifts. And so salmaan came and he presented with him with some grapes, and he told them that it is a Subbu up and so the prophet SAW the light a
Selim did not eat it, but he presented it to his companions, and he allowed them to eat it. And when said mon came another time, and he offered him grapes, and he said that this is a gift, and also lost the holidays and then ate from it, and he allowed for his companions to eat from it. And not only that, but it hasn't been really a lot the alarm and who he one time he was eating from he was a child, he was a infants are maybe a little bit older than that, but he reached have some dates. And the province of the licen have said kiss, which is
a rebuke which is, you know, don't eat from that's like how we would say
it right. And the province the light they sent him told him, he said, Adam Hamad or the family of the prophets I said, then we do not eat from the Salah. And so until now, if you were to meet someone from alpha and beta prosolo last lesson, they will not be able to eat from the solder, it's prohibited from them.
That is an example of something that is made how long forest will last the lightest and lemon law for anyone else. So all of this is in the study of Shema it however, what I wanted to do today is to go over a few case studies with regards to the character of the Prophet some of it is set it up. Because we don't have with regards to his physical attributes, we study it, but at the end of the day, if your hands aren't
white michelob wouldn't be hamre as the province last Adam's hands were a rosy colored whiteness, Arab white or Arabian peninsula what they consider to be white, and not necessarily what we consider to be white. But
if your hair wasn't kind of curly, wavy, but it wasn't straight, and it wasn't curly, like the proper
Last items here was and there's not much that you can do about that if you weren't that the medium height of the province the lightest and no hazard or as a map but describes it also lost a little light. So, you know my story is a very interesting story because she gave the most vivid description of the province, the little ice in it, but she only saw him once.
Because the Sahaba had such reverence for the Prophet sallallaahu Selim, they were in such awe of Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam that they couldn't even describe him. They said we, you know, we didn't even dare look directly at him not because of fear, but because of all. And so when the province the lightest enum is migrating with a move up to the hedger or on the hedge Allah to Medina, they stopped at like this rest stop, which is the 10th of Omar, but then she meets with us on the last day send them and her husband isn't there. And they pass through, after having drank some, some some milk that they had from a goat that she had. And it was the only goat that she had her husband had
left with all of the herd. And they asked her if there was any food, anything that they could eat. And she said, No, the only thing that we have is, is this goat. And it's it stayed behind. The only reason that it stayed behind is because it's sick, or it's weak. And so the problem is, is that I'm asked for it to be brought, and she passed it forward. And he lowered self and started milking. And the next thing that it knows is that it's filled. And so he drinks and his companions drink. And then he says, the rest here is for a woman, but then they go on their way. And so in Abu martlets, comes, he finds this bowl filled with milk, and he says, Well, what happened to my button? And he
says, Yeah, I know Raja Mubarak, he says, a blessing pancake. And then he's Esther will describe him. And then she begins her description that became very famous, she says, law hidden robot obliterated, he has an old Hulk, she said, This man came to us la hiwula. The first thing she notices about him is his cleanliness is obvious, which comes from this aspect of cleanliness. So she says, well, ah, that his cleanliness was apparent. And when these people, the first thing that they would notice about travelers was that
their their cleanliness and so Omar, the first thing he noticed is about gibreel, and the famous hadith of gibreel. He says, A man came and he appeared in his clothes were exceedingly white, and His hair was exceedingly black, and there was no evidence of travel on him.
She says about also last lesson and vital role law eligible which he hasn't been healthy. She says this man's clear cleanliness was apparent.
His face was luminous, has an unhealthy his features were very beautiful.
Lamb to a particular, he didn't have a small head, and he didn't have a protruding stomach. The Arabs at that time, they used to consider that if a person had a small head, that that meant that they had a small brain, small mental capacity. They were dumb.
And so
don't look at the person next to you. But the idea was, is that a small head meant that you didn't have a lot of intelligence. She says he didn't have that and nor did he have a protruding stomach. The promise was that I was just in his stomach. And I remember studies I'm talking about this when he came here. And he was talking about the province, the lightest element. I think he was arguing that the product had a six pack, I'm not sure. But the idea here is that the province of cinemas chested his his stomach was
on the same plane. We'll see him when he died when he walked off of your Aqua hisako Consulting, he saw what she says was seen. He was handsome, Walker seen, well proportioned, there was nothing that was too big for the rest of the body. He died when he assured him that his eyelashes were long and his
his fear and openness not as she says in his his his neck was long. If he sold he is so hot. So hot here means there's a little bit of a rasp Enos to his voice. There's a little bit of gravel there. So
she says as a con.
He had eyebrows that were marking up How could her eyes that look like they had
eyeliner on them. There was a darkness there
was a meaning in the whiteness of his eyes was incredibly white. The darkness was incredibly dark occult on he had a little bit of hair in between his eyebrows. And that's the famous description of the province of the latest cinema. However, the other companions they said no, the province the law said them wasn't a Quran the province was in them did not have a unibrow or hair in between his eyebrows rather that was a that was a vein that appeared when he was angry. So if there was any sort of exertion on behalf of the loss of the lightest set of them, that are that this vein would happen and I'm thinking to myself, at what point did the prophet SAW the lightest enemy exert himself
For a member to notice that maybe it was just a matter of how the light cast did in particular in any particular moment because she didn't see him for a long time herself. Or it could have been maybe when he was exerting himself milking the the goat or something like that, that she noticed that. And then she says for either summer either samata for Allahu Akbar. She says, if he was quiet, he had a countenance of record of of, of what God is like. Waqar is respect an aura of respect. And if he speaks, then he has a countenance of Baja, this this light. And then she says his speech was not too much. And not too little. He wasn't someone who gives you one word, answers to combination,
like conversing with him was not an exercise of pulling teeth, like it is with some people. And at the same time, he wasn't someone who's just, you know, you ask them how their day is. And it's a 45 minute conversation that you have to listen to now. It wasn't either that or that she says as if and she gives the example of his words being like pearls that fall from a beat. And so what does that mean? What does that a metaphor for? When you cut a string of beats, they all fall one after the other. Everything is following all of the thoughts are following each other. There's nothing that's scattered, coming from every direction. And she continues on in her description, but she's
describing now his relationship with his companion, she says that he had two companions with him. If he speaks, they listened to him if he commands they, because that's part of your aura to the way that your people around you respond to you. She says when he commands them to do something, they rush to do it.
This is the Hadeeth of a man but however, what I wanted to look at all of this was just to say we can't necessarily resembled a sort of loss of loss than him and all of these things. His physical description How can we resemble himself the lightest and then by the way, she says what feel it cosafa she says that his chest is his hair. His beard was large, but we are commanded to follow the province little lightest and him and his character.
Wayne nakota Idaho open Allium Eliza says you are upon exalted character. And so we are commanded to follow the prophets of the lightest and in whatever we can have character in the province on the lightest, and he says that the closest of us to him on the Day of Judgment are those who are closest to him in character are the ones who have the best character and the province the lightest and he said that the ones who are the most beloved to him are the ones who have the best character and the prophets the lightest send them when he was asked
what are the things that bring the most people into paradise? What is going to if you're going to invest in anything now that will bring you close to paradise? That will give you the greatest return on investment? It is
not Whoa, look, it says a taco has no luck. Having taqwa of Allah azza wa jal has no follow good character. And something that's very powerful to reflect on
is the consistency of the message of the hold on something that we take for, for take for granted when we live our entire lives and Muslim if we've never experienced
a religion other than Islam, is the consistency and the clarity of the organic message and the consistency and the clarity of the Sunnah of the prophet SAW the light or send them in congruence with the color. There's no discrepancy there. And Allah says if it was from other than Allah, you would have found it much discrepancy and so Allah as ODM commands for good character and also last the lightest, and it says that the thing that will bring the most reward on the day of judgment will bring the most people into paradise is two things the core and personal coolock I once was looking through the Quran and I wanted to see when Allah commands mankind, when he uses the phrase, yeah,
you had enough or Yeah, Benny Adam, or any of these phrase where it's not just restricted to the believers, but all of this creation of humanity. What does a lock command the most? And I found that the thing that Allah commands mankind to do the most out of everything is to have Taqwa of Allah xojo
the message is consistent. The next thing that Allah has a good command is mankind the most when he says yeah, you harness all mankind, all of you. It is warning of Shay thought
in some form,
avoid SharePoint be aware from triathlons Do not let him delude you do not let him and so this consistency of message is something that is an indication of the truthfulness of the message itself. As well as
indication of the truthfulness of it also the loss of a light a sentiment so the prophets level light is send them commands again and again and again to have good character, good character, good character. And people differentiate or they they disconnect between their need of having good character, and then being a good Muslim.
So I can worship a lot as the surgeon and me being a good Muslim means I come to the masjid and I look a certain way and I pray a lot and I do all of these things. And that disconnect is wrong, because the prophets of the light is in them as we were all taught in Sunday school if we went to Sunday school or Islamic school if we went to Islamic school, and Muslim woman, Solomon, Muslim, Mona, Melissa and
the Muslim in the province on the lightest elements describing the believer, he says the Muslim is the one whom the Muslims are safe from their hands and their tongues.
That is who the Muslim is. Muslims will think 100 times before eating pork or bacon, and they will ask if this has this particular enzyme, and if this is Kyla Larry's got gelatin or a million different things, we will ask about all of these things. And in fact, if we were to ever find out that what we just ate, no matter how delicious it was actually was born, we might regurgitate it, we might go somewhere and regurgitate. Right? But all of that. However, when it comes to eating the flesh of our brother and sister, it's delicious.
It's a form of a five course meal and we'll come back for a second.
But that's backbiting, right? That's backbiting and a lot as he described it, as this evil vile thing, I mean, yeah, Colin Murphy, he made that for crypto law. One of you like to eat the flesh of your dead brother. This is where character falls into play. And this is where that disconnect happens. The province of Allied I send them was described or a woman was described to the football muscle I send them to Scarlett salata. She was famous because of how much she prayed. She was someone who is known as a very, very, very energetic worshiper, but at the same time, she used to harm her neighbor. So the previous lesson said he did not know far with all of that. So like she's
an alpha. And then another woman is described, the thing that salata she was known for how little she used to praise used to just pray her five and that was it. No pm No. To lock eyes before failure or nothing. And then the profits less than them, but she's known for being good to her neighbors. Promise, I said him, said he, if he didn't, he's in general. Right? And so character, the province I sent him when he famously says, Do you know who it is? Do you know who the bankrupt person is? And also hapa said, well, the bankrupt person is a person who's bankrupt person who's got no money. No, didn't have no dollars, no nothing. And then the last person says, No, that's not who the bankrupt
person is. The banker person is the person who comes on the Day of Judgment with their Salah, and Ramadan, and thoroughly and all of that good stuff, with their charity.
But they come having
hurt this person, hit this person, insulted this person, harm this person. And so this person will come and take from their good deeds, thank you very much, this person will come and take from their good deeds, this person will come and take from their good deeds until they become bankrupt. And then when they have no more, but they still have credit, or they still have what they owe, this person will come and say you don't have any good deeds for me to take, then here, take some of my sins, and take some of my sins and take someone license until this person is overwhelmed people's sins, and then they'll be thrown into the hellfire. That's not an issue of Salah versus sown versus
anything else. It's an issue of good character. It's an issue of how you treat people. And so people think that dakhla is just your fear of allies again, and your relationship with Allah. But that's not the only aspect. It is also how you deal with other people and the creation of allies. So very quickly, if we have time I want to go through three case studies in Sharla, which is the humility of the prophets on the Lyceum, the mercy of the Prophet and the justice of the prophets of the lightest and then we'll see what we can get through.
So as for the mercy of the prophets, the lightest and them Allah azza wa jal calls him Rahman will add me from Allah knock a lot of
the famous verse Allah says we have not sent you O Mohammed except as a mercy to mankind. Now what is mercy? There's a difference between the Lama and Rafa Allah as a man and Rahim and that comes from his route Rama, Allah azza wa jal is also a roof or roof
and the roof the difference between Rafa and Rama is Rama is intending good to reach other people. That's what rasa is, intending good to reach other people with no harm whatsoever. So Rafa is this highest level of Rama. Rafa is like your mom, who tells you, I don't want you to.
Okay, maybe not your mom. But
whichever parent is the more is the one who's so kind that they don't want you to suffer even the slightest pain. And so you cry and you say I don't want to
Take this medicine and they say, okay, you don't need to take this medicine. Right doesn't because they don't want you to you don't want, they don't want you to feel that pain.
Whereas the other person, or the other parent who's gonna shove the medicine down your throat, they're not doing it because they don't have Rama for you. They're doing it because they have Rama and Rama, however, is the willingness to correct you or make you better, even if you have to experience pain.
Even if you have to experience pain, because they, they they are willing to do that. However, often you're not even willing to do that. It's it has this absence, this aspect of chef aka, this worry over that person as well, as a lot as they call it a sort of loss. I say, um, he says meaning or overriding also the loss of the licen him is not only to him, for the believers, he's merciful. But he also he doesn't even want us to experience any pain cellulitis. And he doesn't even want us to go through any hardship, whatever he can remove from us. And so we're going to talk about how to solo loss I said, I'm avoided doing a lot of things, and avoided from commanding a lot of things just
because he was a Lola and a Shaka Almaty, Lola. And if it wasn't for the fact that I don't want my own life, experience hardship lamotta Misaki, and Nicola Sala, I would have commanded them to brush with their teeth with the sidewalk before every prayer, or I would have made their issue prayer in the middle of the night, because that's its best time, or I would have not stayed behind from any campaign and I would have gone and participated in every battle. But I wouldn't want to my own mind to be burdened with something like that, or that type of obligation, or I would have prayed that I we had the prophets last night. And we know after the third night, he stopped praying, because he
was afraid that it would become obligatory on the oma and they wouldn't be able to do it. And so this is the mercy of a little lesson that I send them, but also his law, which is a higher level of mercy.
The profit solar light is and they've intended good to reach everybody. And that was part of His mercy, the profits, the lights in them was informed in Medina, that a Jewish boy was going to die. And so the prophets the light is and then goes to visit this boy, and he stands next to him. And he says, testified that there's nothing where they worship except Allah and that I am his messenger. And so the boy looks at his father in that moment. And his father says to him, after passing, he says, obey the loss of a lighter send them, they called him above us. And so the boy says it another Rasulullah send them leaves that house and he's saying that hum de la let the other who be mean and
not all praises due to Allah who saved this boy threw me from the hellfire. He wasn't going to benefit from this child's life at all there was he was on the way out this child was promised the lightest and don't wear this boy as he's described. Maybe he was post pubescent however, the province of the last Adams only goal is to go and save this person from the Hellfire and arcoxia when it comes to something like this is beyond even describing.
You know you imagine a person who's just going to old people's homes and all they care about they're not concerned about whether or not this person is going to boss this person's on there. But my only goal is to give out to them. And then walking out of these places saying and hamdulillah that Allah saved this person from the Hellfire through me Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam a Navajo lady came to him and he used a bullet I loved his mother. I bought eight I accepted Islam in the seventh year or at least he caught up to the solar loss I said I'm in the seventh year. He found the prophets the lightest send them in the campaign of playbook in Medina. I will later comes in he's staying with
the province of the light as a number his mother hadn't accepted Islamia and I will hold a a at one point. You know, there's a lot of resistance to change especially from parents.
She not only curses abalone to Allah, she curses the prophets that will license them out and not so much. And so he goes to the profits of the lightest and lemon he tells him he says he also law. My mother said something about you that just hurt me. And the prophet SAW the light so let me doesn't respond by saying there's no good and her none of you believes until I become more beloved to him than his parents and his children and all of mankind. That's not the time for that. The prophets Allah later send him says Allah him the mid ebihara.
Allah died the mother
was like I started running back home to see what would happen. I was running back home he said when I got home, I heard the
water.
I heard the swishing of water. And I my mother said above Laura, stay outside don't come in.
And then she came out and he could tell that she had just bathe and she said I should do a la ilaha illAllah eyeshadow.
So that was it. A profit so the lightest and never ever, ever, ever took retribution because of his own self ever, never because of his honor or his dignity or anything like that. In fact, when those children those fools have a Pipestone little sliver of loss of colitis and up out of his city, and the province of Alberta is sending them is met by God and the angel who guards the or the guardian of the mountains. The province of Alberta said I was given the option if you wish I will cause what is between the
The town that's between the two mountains to collapse on itself, meaning Mecca. I'll make it collapse. These people are causing you all of these problems. It's Mecca, not the five, it's Mecca, even though the Prophet says Adam was expelled from five, he said to him, and then
Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam he said to him, I would rather that Allah azzawajal bring forth from their children, people who will worship a lot as we get along the prophets. I said, I've never took retribution for himself. He never took retribution for himself, the province of the lightest, and when you look at Mercy of Rasulullah sallallahu sallam, you see that it wasn't. It was undoubtedly an incredibly he had, he had the the capacity for it. He had the capacity for it. But he also trained himself to have mercy. He also because you have this discussion with regards to his character, something that's developed or is this something that you are given with, and there's
evidence for both, but undoubtedly, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam was tested, the prophets the law was tested. So when the quesadilla timimi when he came sort of solo lost them ally, they sell them and he was the father of the hostages, the prophets, the licen them described to me came to the show Last of Us, Adam, and he said to him, yeah, Mohammed ad.
He says, oh, Mohammed be just.
And just that statement gives you goosebumps, how does the person say that total. So watch the lesson and be just oh,
by the chris martin Margarita, watch, this distribution of spoils that you're doing is not a distribution
in which the face of Allah is intended. You're not intending God with this distribution, you're not being fair.
And so the province of the licen and lowers his head.
And then he lifts it up, and he says, And who's going to be justified not just
and then the mandates, and also homicide data, so Allah,
just give us permission.
And then he says, no, maybe he praised it was either hide it or not, I don't remember which one
by the run would have done the job, right. And then he says,
He says, maybe he prays and they said to him, Well, how many people pray, what's not in their heart? And the prophet SAW said him said, I was not sent with all of that. But then he then mentions the description, he says, a group of people will come from the lineage of this person who and the description of the whole adage that he mentions, but the province the lightest, and then he says, yahama Allahu Moosa when the Prophet so I said, I'm experienced that moment he said, may Allah azzawajal Have mercy on Musa la Uzziah be extra mean? hada for Saba, may Allah have mercy on Musa he was hired by much more than that. And he was patient. He was patient. And so the province level is
that it almost sought to strength through the memory of Masada. He said I'm because Musa was harmed by much more than that he wasn't just contested by one person, one random person saying be just most it said I was tested again and again and again. And again, by bunnies light, you know how mad you would be, if you had a lot of them. Right here. As a woman, she has a sort of made the other mothers is right here. There's
everybody, let's go Enter.
And ally you will be victorious. And they say yamasa, there is a group that are debating in the city.
There's some tyrants, there are some really strong people in the city. And we're not going to enter as long as they're in it. But if they leave, then we're going to will, we're going to enter
like a lot. We just split the sea for you and brought you out of Egypt. And you saw these miracles with your own eyes. And this is the prophet of God with you and all of that. And he's saying to you now enter into this city, you will enter into it, and you will be okay. And they say no, it have untold bukata katella. They say to most up they say you and your Lord go and fight. We're going to be right here. That's what they said to musasa. And so for 40 years, as a result, they roam in the desert, in the desert, in the desert, never settling anywhere for 40 years. You know how upset that would make you if you had to lead that flock for 40 years loss, and Musashi said I'm passed away and
never ever entering into Jerusalem. In fact, he asked Allah azzawajal to bring him as close as a stone's throw away from Jerusalem and let him pass away there and the province level lightest and I'm said that when he was going on the night of it, it's about when he saw most of praying in his grave, right by the red sand dune, outside of Jerusalem.
But Moosa was tested and the prophet SAW said when he was tested, he said, may Allah as we did have mercy on Moosa. So, these are some of the examples of the the mercy of the prophets the almighty send up from his mercy used to carry the daughter of his daughter mama Binti, Xena used to carry or Salah used to
not lift her, not leave her on the ground. When he would come up for his second knockout, he would pick her up again, not disconnecting that love he would carry it has to know who said, and he would kiss them and he would say, Oh Allah, I love them. So loved them. In fact that has to know his standards. So we lost the license that was on the member. And he was giving a holdover. And then he sees his two grandchildren walking into the masjid. And they're both struggling, stumbling as they're walking, tripping over their shirts or what have you. They're dummies. And so the prophets lesson and descends from the member, he walks over to them picks them up, and he comes back on to
the member. And he says, Allah has spoken the truth that your children are a fitna for you. And then he says in the evening how they say it, and he says about it has and he says this son of mine is a chief, he is a master, he is a leader. He is a saint, and a lot as the general reconciled by him to large hosts of Muslims.
But that these are there are so many examples of the mercy of the prophets of the lice in them but let's jump into
the question here is am I merciful? That's the question that we should be asking. Am I merciful? When people were close to me describe me Would they describe me as being someone who's merciful do I care? The problem is the lightest and love used to allow what he would be making will do he would allow for a cat to come and drink water. As he was making profits. I said num was a mercy to an island man who has mercy to everything. He was a mercy to animals. He was a mercy to the profits of the lions. Adam was a tree hugger, he literally hugged the tree cellulitis and
when the tree that you used to give his holdover from when the province of Elias, Allah when the member was finally created for him, he left giving hope but leaning on the tree. And so this harvest said we heard a sound of wheezing and crying coming from the tree. And so the prophet SAW the light as and and walked over to the tree and started hugging it and caressing it. And then the tree calmed down, and then has another bustling Houston area, the story and he used to cry, and he was to say, to his companions to his group, and he was of the tabular and he never met the province of Elias lm he would cry, and he would say, a tree wept out of longing to meet but also the loss of Elias said,
wouldn't you cry? Wouldn't you want to meet the prophet SAW the light as send them and so this is his mercy is extending to everything, that which has a soul that which doesn't have a soul, the prophet SAW the light. So love was truly a maternal element. Now we come to his insoft or His justice, so the lightest and
the justice of the prophets lie Selim was with regards to everyone, all of the people, the believers, the non believers, the near the far those who agreed with him, those dissented everyone and the province that I sent him he never oppressed anyone in their wealth or their blood or their honor. In fact, Nine Nights before he passed away, so the lighter you send them, the prophet stood in front of everyone in front of the pulpit, on the member. And he said, Whoever I lashed, here's my back.
And whoever I attacked their honor, here is my honor. And let not one of you say in the office, shout out middle Sunni lifestyle, I send them I fear, ill will from the prophet SAW the light, I send them because that's not my character. But he's saying whoever I took their money, here's my money. Whoever I took their honor or their pride or I injured their pride. Come, whoever I lashed their back wrongfully, come lash my back.
And don't let any of you think that if I do that, then the system's not gonna like me. And Allah is not gonna like me, he's like, it's not my character, I'm gonna have a clear heart when it comes to. However, I wish to meet a lot of dead with no one carrying any arguments against me, no one having any claims against me.
This is the justice of the prophets of the lightest, and then the prophet SAW the light, I said,
he was just what he was happy. And he when he was angry, a lot of people when they're angry, they absolutely lose control. I remember, you know, some guy who really surprised me was a old man who prayed in the masjid.
Every single night, every single night. And then one time I saw him completely get into an argument with someone in the mystery then lose their mind. Like he lost his mind. Like he was just absolutely vulgar and evil and wicked and all of that. And he was making the excuses like, Well, when I lose my temper, like all bets are off. I'm like, that's not what 10 years or 20 years or 30 years of praying in the message is supposed to develop. It's actually supposed to develop a character that is restraint, because that's an attribute of the monopoly. And the prophet SAW sent him says at the hospital, that when they argue they all argue with vulgarity, and with wickedness and evil, and so
the prophets of the lightest and he was just in happiness, and he was just in his anger.
The profits of the lotus and from His justice is he would be just with her
To the division of his time, he would divide his time between three his Lord, his community and his family. And
as our Shahab did, we'll have a thread he says, with regards to the seat of the provinces, I mean, he's a man who spent a lot of time reflecting on the seat and teaching the CLR. And he says, Whoever studies the one aspect of the life of the prophets, I send him you think that he spent his entire time in that field. If you look at the prophet SAW cinnamon the way that he was with his family, you would think that he spent his entire time 24 hours a day with his family.
When you see the prophet SAW, sent him with his companions, you think that he never went home, that he was always present with his companions, and not only physically present, but he was mentally present, emotionally present. He, he, he noticed their nuances, he noticed everything that was different about them. He tells Isaiah his wife, he says, I can tell when you're happy, and when you're angry, because when you're happy with me, you say love or be Mohammed. And when you're angry with me, you say love or a bit raw him. That's how I know. And he says, The only thing I leave is your name. That's the only thing that leaves my heart doesn't leave nothing else leaves. It's just
that the only thing I switched is your name.
But he's he's aware of the province level I seldom is ever present with his companions. And so he divided his time in three when he would pray also, after he would pray outside, he would go and give said to all of his wives,
all nine of his houses for the lightest.
And then when he would distribute, he would be just in his distribution between his wives, he would give everybody what was due to them, and then he would say, aloha mahalo kusmi FEMA amulek. Our law This is the how I differentiate between what I possess for that to be my entertain licola amulek do not hold me accountable for what you possess and what I don't possess. Meaning his heart civilized. If you happen to love someone more than the other Well,
the heart is not in his control. cellulitis in them,
even when under the companions was sitting down, and he had his son on his lap, and he had his daughter next to him, the province of Eliasson, him, saw him and he said, Hello, delta Bahama. He said, Why don't you be just an equal between them, you're gonna keep your son on your lap, then keep your daughter on your lap. And if you're gonna keep your son or your daughter on the seat next to you then put your son on the seat next to you, meaning be very, very specific with regards to and very sensitive with regards to any differentiation that you can have with regards to your children, the province level lightest send them and one of the battles he had lined up. And this is a famous
story, I'm sure you've all heard it, but the province the lawyers had lined up the Sahaba. And it's a serious time The battle is going to be starting soon, everybody needs to line up, and one person is protruding outside of the line. So what?
So the problem is the licen him says, is still yes.
Still, yes.
He hits him with a stick.
Get in line.
He's serious. He's the commander in chief know, the Leviathan. So it looks to me says he or she will allow you hurt me.
isn't the time for that. Right.
That can get you another hit.
And yet also last last Adam immediately he lifts up his shirt and he gives him the stick and he says go ahead and hit and so then dives in and he rubs his face in the belly of the prophets, Allah lighters and the price of Sam says, Why'd you do that? And he's so loud. This is a moment that you see. But you see what's about to happen. And I was hoping that the last thing that I would touch would be your skin on my skin. Right But the justice of the province I said I'm Indian in that moment, he immediately collected himself he realizes
what happened or what claim so I might have against him and the problem is leveled. I said and reacts accordingly.
The province of a licensed justice with the kuffaar
or the disbelievers there are some people in the Muslim community. If you simply praise one aspect that non Muslims have they're like, Oh, you're so impressed with non Muslims You're so this and they they act like people who are non Muslim have no good qualities at all. I remember, Shahada and Hydra one time.
And Dr. Hartman hedges a great, a great item. Someone who combined between medicine and film. And I remember I went with him to a mall one time, and the mall hadn't opened. And he said I want to see what the difference is between our Muslim countries. And
he said the time that the mall was the door was supposed to open was 9am or 10am, whatever. And we were there 30 minutes early. So he's like, just wait.
Okay, so he said Just wait. And so we're waiting
59 pasts.
On the dot the doors open. He said this is exactly the reason why I didn't live up here.
says, Look, they're on time. They're on time. This is the difference. And so he's praising an aspect that the,
you know, Muslim countries do not have. And there's nothing wrong with that the prophets the lightest, and then he says that latter comitia, the hour will not be established until except that the Romans are the majority of people. And so when this companion narrated this to us, I'm in Ross, I pay attention to what you're saying. He said, I'm only telling you what I heard from Rasulullah. Salaam, it is and so I'm leaving the house, he said, If that's the case, if that's truly from the province to us, then then there are four qualities that I seen from the Romans
that indicate why they would be so this is his own analysis. And he says, they are so nasty, they are the people who are the quickest to, to recover from a masiva
they get hit with a calamity, they get hit with a famine, they get hit with whatever, they are the quickest people to respond.
And they are so nasty karma, bad karma, and they are the people who are the most quick to reach, to retreat, know after retreat, to re engage after retreat. So if they retreat from a battle, they're the quickest to re up and re engage. And then he says, In the hula, hula minasi, and the fitna Astra home, if our pattern bad Musa OSHA concomitant. O'Hara homely miskeen were teeming with life. He says that they are the most forbearance of people in a time of a trial. And they are the quickest to awaken after a calamity, they're not in a daze for 20 years or 30 years, they realize that it's a calamity and they act accordingly. Well shackle them karma by the wire only miscarry in Waldorf, and
they are the best of all communities with regards to how they take care of orphans and how they take care of the, the the poor. And how do they take care of I mean, are the the welfare programs in the Muslim world comparable to write they're the best when it comes to taking care of the the poor and the miskeen and the life and the weak and, and then he says, well, Jaime Sutton has an attorney jameelah we're now human woman. So I'm gonna also say, and a fifth beautiful one that they have is that they are the most
they are the people who are the most
resistant, very good, the most resistant from the oppression of kings. They are the ones who don't bend their backs the most to the oppression of kings. Right? They don't take that. So I'm gonna manasses praising these qualities and don't say, well, it's not permissible for a Muslim to praise. I mean, this is a companion of Rasulullah sallallahu sallam, and the prophets I send him praise many people multimedia ID he he prays others as well, after they had passed away, but in the interest of time, let's conclude inshallah, to Allah with the last one, which is the humility of Rasulullah sallallahu wasallam. the humility of the prophets lesson. And so again, here, the question that we
have to ask ourselves is, this isn't, you know, intellectual entertainment? It's,
it's guidance. And so, am I just am I someone who's just Am I just with regards to my family? My time? Am I just with regards to my job, my employer, you know, come out here, he gave a hold without a couple months back. That was just unbelievable. The thought was incredible. Where he basically argued, he said, you know, we all hate people like Sharon, and we all love abubaker disease, and these people, and we all imagine that we would be like him not disease, and if we were to lead the oma, we would be like aboubaker, we would be like, that's what we think. And we hate people like Michelle said that Christina Wallach or whoever, right.
Not sure how I feel about this yet. I'm still worried about that. But the point here is that people hate these oppressors. And they assume that they're not like them at all. You're with the good guys. But then the question is, if you were to analyze yourself, are you a mini oppressor? Are you a mini good guy? Are you someone who presses your employer by getting paid for hours that you didn't work? Or are you like a motive knob that Aziz used to be incredibly stringent with regards to the candle that he would like if it was a state funded candle, he would only light it for state activities and if it was his own personal expenditure, that he would use his own personal candle that's an
embodiment of diseases mo that's the way that he was. Are we more like these? Are we more like all of these leaders who we say use up the resources of their country and taxpayers dollars and all of that type of stuff. Put here being is that we have to ask the question, are we just or are we not just then we have the last is the humility of the prophets. The light is setting them in humility. It's easy to be humbled for those who are greater than you. So
If you're a first year medical student, and you meet this guy who's a master surgeon, who's been, you know, doing practicing surgery for 30 years, it's very easy for you to be humble in their presence. If you're with a professor of yours, who you'd love to take, who you'd love their mentorship or whatever, people who are greater than you in knowledge or in
accomplishments or what have you, it's very easy for you to be humble. But it's harder to be humble with people who are your peers, your own classmates, your own people who are your own age, your own siblings, these people who are on your level. And it's even more difficult to be humble with those who are less than you. Those who have learned less than you those who have lived less than you those who know less than you, right? Who have accomplished less than you but that's what the water is. That is what water is the process of a light SLM, everybody was better, he was better than everybody saw the lightest, and he was better than everybody somebody said look. And he was humbled to
everybody.
He was described as a little girl in Medina could grab him by the hand, and she could leave him lead him wherever she wanted. The proper size of them would be grabbed by a little girl. And okay, we're going on an adventure, we're going on an adventure and he would walk with Him. And a cinematic he tells the story of how his grandmother invited the prophets that will lie they send them over for food. And so the Prophet said, I said I'm with
and you don't really realize that and think about this until you think about it that when you're a busy person, you're forget leader in a community, you just you're busy, you're just a busy person. A lot of people slip through the cracks. A lot of people you don't answer their voicemails A lot of people don't get called back. So a lot of people you just don't have the time for and you start categorizing people by how important they are. And you don't necessarily do this consciously. However, NSF pneumatic says my grandmother, invited also losses and i'm not i'm a worker. Now, no matter not any of these people. And as Who's this servant of the Prophet sallallahu sallam, his
grandmother invites the prophets liberalizing him over to their house, and the Prophet. So I said to mix the time to go over to the house and he eats their food. And then he says como de la ku. He says, Get up. And let me lead you guys in prayer. Let me bless this house and honor you guys by the prayer of our solar system in your house. And so I know some of you learned says I pulled out this dry mat that had become black because of how old it was. And I kind of sprinkled some water on it. And then the Prophet somebody said, I've got up and he prayed and I prayed next to the province Listen up. And the girl My grandmother prayed behind us. The prophets of Allah send them would
remind me I found gave up when he said I was the Companion of the Prophet Coronavirus. And then for several over an hour, I was in the province a little less than in his residence and in his travel all the time, it's man.
And he says the Prophet salallahu alaihe salam used to visit our sick and he used to go out and campaigns with us. And he used to bury our dead and kind of us he and I philokalia will Kashi and the prophets of Allah Salaam was share with us in the little that we had. And then the amount and the grace that we had, we had a lot the private was with us. And if we had a little the province the lesson was right there with us there was no tower that the province that I sent him commanded the believers from and he was in his tower, eating meat and all of these things. And the companions were eating dates, I showed the line that says three months would go by and we wouldn't cook food in the
light enough and the house was all the promises to them. There was not a single stove that was lit there was no fire that was burning in the houses of the provinces that I'm well how did you survive? The two black things? dates and water?
dates and water? question. How is water black? I was water becoming a black thing? Dirty.
It's dirty.
I have some stories about Blackwater.
Not the not the group, just the
just Blackwater.
We have these z as you guys know as you desire. It's like a clay pot contains water and villages.
And so when I would come to Sudan in the summertime, this was
when I was a kid. We didn't have electricity in my village until I became like nine years old. So it used to be so rough coming to the summertime. And spending a summer in the villages of Sudan with no no electricity, nothing. And the only water we drink is from disease and so you you wouldn't even want to drink the water because it's just like all this stuff is floating inside of it. And so my older cousins and my uncles and stuff like that they'd be like I'm glad you're coming from America and you think that this you can't drink this right? They were looking at this they just kick it back. And like this is great water, huh?
But you get used to it so I shall be lying. Who knows the type of water that she's drinking but she's saying do black things, dates and water. Okay, so
the province and the lady who said he was humble with everyone, the prophet SAW sentiment I'll give two examples and we'll conclude with this but the Prophet said the lightest and and and he says that for the Luna Allah uncle Mata. He says do not prefer me over
You're in Sydney with Jonah.
And he says lots of the loonie either museum near Emma don't say that I'm better than most.
Well, why is that?
Is it allowed for a person to say that the province of the Lyceum is better than unit Sydney matter? Or is it allowed for a person to say that the province that I send them is better than most Abner and Milan.
in Medina, a problem happened and that was that the Muslims are living with the Jews and there was one Muslim who was talking or engaging in some sort of transaction transaction excuse me with a Jew and the Jew set that will let you follow Allah Masha. Allah, Allah Bashar. He says no by the one who preferred Moosa over everybody.
And so the Muslim says you dare say something like that. But the prophet SAW the light is the bane of holiness. The problems from I send them is right here. So punches
so this man goes a little subtle loss on the lightest and the complaints of the province the less than him He says, Look at what your companion did. And so the problem is on the lightest, and there's a lot of apolonia Alamosa do not prefer me over Moosa. On the Day of Resurrection, I will be resurrected, and I will see moose a holding on to the throne, and I won't know whether he awoke before me, or whether he was saved from the general side I thought because of
what he experienced in the dunya. When he asked the lies, I get to see him.
Here the prophet SAW said I'm saying don't prefer me over more so and then another Hadith the prophet SAW center says, lots probably don't agree with that. Do not say that I'm better than you.
Why would a person
say that? We understand with most of the prophets that the lightest and love is avoiding this kind of
life like
homea are basically people are choosing sides. However, the scholars they said, is it allowed for a person to say that the Prophet system is better than everybody? Yes or no? Obviously, right? We all believe that we all believe the promises enum is the best, is better than most and isn't new, and Ebrahim and all of them. And we believe that those five are better than everybody who came out because they are It doesn't mean also, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam is teaching us that we don't make the prophets, a source of our entertainment and become a game where Yousif is better than Holloman. Because if the Profit System had allowed for that, you have to believe that scholars
throughout history would have tried to list the profits, all of them in order of their virtue, and they would have made a list of 25 profits or they would have made a list of 100. And we would have sat there and argued about which profit is better and and that, that that's not how the profits are supposed to be treated. And so the profit stabilized and then he does tell us and I say you do, what did the Adam Yokoyama, he says I am the best. I'm the master of the children of Adam and they've just met. Well, Arthur, I'm not saying this out of pride. I'm saying this to inform you of my status, so that you know, and so there's nothing wrong with saying that one profit is better than
the other when there's no pride involved, and there's no there's no none of that emotion involved. It's simply a save what Allah has legislated so that we know people's place, a person the province has said when he says unit 70 method because when you read the story of Yunus, you see that Yunus fled from the commandment of Allah, he was sent to a people, the people disbelieved Yunus jumped onto a ship. And then he left his station basically. And he said, um, he left his station and then
the ship was overtook by storm, and they realize that there was a slave who had fled from his master. And so you may feel
almost like you may be a little unit if the method
is set up. So the prophets of
the prophets showed incredible humility when it came to the Prophet. prophets I send them showed incredible humility. When regular people people would come into the message and say, you can Mohammed Which one of you is Mohammed, there's nothing special about us normal loss of life and which one of you is Hamlet? That's such a powerful question. You come on, which one of you showing his absolute humility with, with with human humanity? A man will come and he's shaking in the presence of the prophets of a lightness in him in the prophecy says don't shake. I'm simply the son of a woman from Makkah, who used to eat and he mentioned the very basic food that they used to eat.
Hmm,
I need
I need
Okay, you're gonna have to explain that to me.
I need What is it?
Driver. So I'm just a person who used to eat or are the son of a woman who's the driver, just calm down. Like he's basically telling him to calm down. It's very normal. So the profits the lesson, always, always, always showing that
humidity and so the province level light is and then he says that motto that hadn't been that there's not a single person who becomes humbled in the sight of a bicep that a lot as we get raises that person. And there's no person except who has a atoms weight of arrogance, except that they will be prevented from Paradise. And so the question then becomes what is pride, which is the opposite of humility, but they want to know the process and described it as the rejection of truth,
and the belittling of people. And so you have to make it and I have to make it our constant
concern, and a source of great vigilance that we never reject the truth because of who's the one who's carrying it? Even if it's our little brother and sister, even if it's our son or daughter, even if it's whoever it is, that we don't reject the truth because of who is the one who's carrying it and lumped in knots, belittling people that I don't belittle people. I don't look down upon people. I don't mock people. last appointment, communist
minister.
So these are three case studies. There's nothing wrong with it. We end here with some of the lightest unemployment right out of sophisticates.
Yes.
showing mercy to people who aren't showing mercy to you.
Depends.
When you say a pert, what's the reason why they're not showing mercy to you?
Like, for example, the Prophet sallallaahu send them at times. His default was always him being merciful and joyous and things like that. But at the same time,
a lot of there's just yeah, you had an OB Jared cafaro, monocular de novo de la
Sol La Raza when it comes to the Cabal Illuminati, those who are fighting against you and things like that. Then Allah says, Welcome to the LA, be severe with them, be harsh with them, you're not going to be merciful Shepard, it gives the example of how
he mentioned how last year when there was all of these people wanting to demonstrate against
the Muslims in their massage and have come with guns and things like that. He was mentioning how one of the Muslim leader groups, one of the Muslim leaders had an idea he said, okay, when they come with their guns, we're gonna come with flowers, and we're gonna put them in the barrel of their guns,
said that he was so annoyed by that. I was like, that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Right. So that's not that's not a time or a moment for mercy. When people are being harsh towards you, that they see from you. Or that they see from you, you know, a person is cursing you out in the store. And you're like, Okay, I love you, too.
They might be more shocked when they see a whole lot of attitude. Right from you.
But all of that is with caution, of course as well. Right? You don't put yourself in a corner. But
do they deserve mercy in that moment? I don't think so.
I think with whatever.
You know, they
That's true. It's situational one knows best. But
those are those those things where they work when they work?
Yeah, but is that what you were talking about? No.
Here's the thing. It's not always that case. And I have some examples here where I didn't
on a different topic, but there were times where people come with a lot of attitude to the solar system, and they find some attitude back. So a man comes to the solar sun, and he takes a dry bone.
And he crushes in front of the Senate. And he says, Do you think that a lot as we get is going to resurrect this after it's become a meme.
And then the province the rest of them says, nah, yeah, but I thought we were gleeful kathina
that's the response. He's gonna resurrect it and it's gonna he's gonna resurrect you and he's gonna throw you into the fire.
Like right at you. So it's like, okay,
yeah. So you know when people are coming with all because there's some people who aren't
Going to respect.
Not everybody's going to love or accept Islam or anything like that. But they should at least respect the Muslims. And they're only going to respect the Muslims if they feel that the Muslims have some sort of backbone.
Yes,
it should, it should, because the worship in and of itself should correct that person's behavior. So when a person, they complain to the province, so I sent him out about about a person who steals province, OSM said, that person's prayer is going to prevent them from stealing. Eventually, when their prayer becomes perfected, is going to correct their behavior.
The more a person, if a person is sitting there and seeking knowledge and learning and learning and learning and attending classes, and memorizing and doing all of these things, and all of that knowledge isn't making them wash the dishes when their parents tell them to wash the dishes, then
what is what's the point if they can narrate every Hadith about the rights of the mother, but none of that actually causes them to fulfill any of the rights of their mother? Right. And so, and that's the famous story of julija. Rage, or George was a worshiper who had locked himself up in a monastery, and he was just worshiping, worshiping, worshiping and his mother calls in from outside and he says Jada Salatin
so he decides to pray, because Salah is more important than his mother, right? And then he, she calls out to him again, he's still praying, and he's still praying and still praying. And then finally his mother makes a diet against him. And she says, me, you're not dying to see the face of a prostitute. That's the die she makes.
And then all of this other stuff backdrop is set in motion for this to be manifested province lesson and tells us that there were a couple of people outside on the outskirts of the city, just people who were up to no good. And they're sitting outside and a prostitute comes up to them. And she says to them, Do you know anybody in this city that I can't tempt? And they're like, yeah, Joel, ah, but you can't tempt him. He's like bet. Okay. Right. Because we got nothing better to do. We're just some no good, whatever. So see if we can tempt the best guy in the city. And though she goes, she calls out to jurij. And Nope, she calls out to your age. Nope, your age is not having it. He's not
interested at all. So then she goes outside of the city, and she finds a shepherd, she sleeps with them, she becomes pregnant as the child that she comes back into the city, and she says, this is your age, baby.
And then the people immediately go and tear his monastery down.
Because everybody's got nothing to do. They started a hashtag. And they, it goes viral. Right. And now, Drake has been worshipping for 30 years, not bothering anybody, but now he's a big phony and evil and everything. And they mob it and they
are very offended, right? And they tear him down. And then they're pulling Judah Ah, and then Julie sees the face of the prostitute as he's being dragged by the mob. And then the baby speaks. And the baby says, I am not doing this child. I am the child of the shepherd. So when everybody witnesses this miracle, and this is one of the few babies who spoke in the cradle, when he they see this miracle, they tell you that he they say we are going to rebuild your monastery, our bat, we're going to rebuild your monastery in gold. And today says no, I don't want it rebuilt in gold. I just want it like it was Leave me alone. And then the profits lost. And I'm comments on this. And he says that
I am Allahu jurij if he was a puppy, meaning if he actually had knowledge, he would have responded to the call of his mother. Okay.
So the point here is that all of this, and that's why By the way, the scholars they said that if your mom or your dad they call you while you're in an obligatory prayer you pasted to finish the prayer. You don't decide to then recite, sort of Bukhara Your mom is calling you. I'm just going to recite sort of the book. And if it's a method of prayer, that you break the prayer, it's enough of prayer, you break the prayer and
you come back to it.
Okay, guys,
