The importance of being a strong judge and not justifying others was emphasized in the Surah desired by Islam, where the court system used the court system to assert that the man is not a victim of crime and that he is not a victim of evil behavior. The importance of love and Islam in fighting evil behavior was also emphasized.

00:00:37 --> 00:01:02
			Last week, we commenced with a description of the purpose of surah Toma ADA, which is the first
surah in the Holy Quran. And we said that the other name for surah Midas or code or the surah that
deals with the covenants or the pledges, the contracts that men has with allows for Hanover tada
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:25
			and of course, the contract which we have for the low Swan Matala is contained between the covers of
the Quran that is a contract, which we signed with a low squanto tala. Before we entered the dunya.
Allows founder led asked us to make the pledge and we made the pledge and allows for 100,000 return
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:27
			and given us
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:52
			a gift which he had not given to any oma before us. In fact, maybe we should take as two gifts. He
gave us the gift, and he gave us the gift of the bringing of the gift. I was going to say that the
giver of the gifts but that sounds like something else. So allowes founder gave us
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:55
			Mohammed sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:01:57 --> 00:01:59
			his most beloved messenger
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:02
			a mercy for the world.
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:15
			And he gave us with that the book The Quran, and as I said last week, allows Muhammad Allah had
given us a perfect book and a perfect face. Ali oma
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:37
			and yo Mark Mottola, Kadena Kumar, Los Angeles says that today and I'm sure you all know this verse
ever perfected for you, your deen your religion, your way of life. And I have completed my favor
upon you, which is the gift of Mohammed Salah there's a lump
		
00:02:38 --> 00:03:18
			and many other favors which are like bestowed upon us by choosing us as the final oma. And it's a
Blissett oma, what I'll do to Lacombe, Islamic Dena, and Allah says he had chosen was Islam as the
way of life. So we have in our hands, a book I contract, which is a perfect contract between men,
and allows for Hannah Montana and we said that every surah is not an individual surah but every
surah is part of a series of 114 suor which Allah revealed to Muhammad Salah so Sudan, Baccarat
doesn't stand aside from Central America.
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:27
			Now neither the surah Allah and Ron and all the others who are we said, for example, that sort of
Bukhara the intent and purpose of sort of Baccarat was
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:35
			to allow ban and to grant men the facility to rule and to manage the world.
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:38
			So the world was given to men.
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:58
			Man wasn't given to the world. Man's destiny is the ashra we don't belong here. our destinies in the
era our destiny is to complete the circle from where we come our home which is in the agenda, that
is where we come from. That is the passport that we hold.
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:18
			That is the visa that we hold in our passport, we don't have a visa for the student. That's why we
said Sam said couldn't fit dunya can nikka Haribo Abu severely be in this world like a stranger? Or
just a possible because it's exactly who we are and what we are. So we the world has been given to
us
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:24
			to manage we are CEOs of this dunya that is the message of circle Docker
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:43
			and the message of Surah termica which we are presently busy with is that alswamitra says in the
beginning of the sutra, yeah you will Latina armano Ofu builder aku the oh you people who believe in
Allah are you people of faith are you Muslim.
		
00:04:45 --> 00:05:00
			fulfill the contracts which you make. Not only was Allah is the Greatest covenant which will which
we will hear about today, but also the covenant and the contracts and the pledges that you make
amongst yourself, irrespective of whether it is was
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:08
			A Muslim or non Muslim, a Muslim honors His Word and His contact with whoever he comes into, into,
into into contact with.
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:12
			Now the fourth proclamation
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:19
			I've given you already three proclamation circle majda. The fourth proclamation is the proclamation
of justice.
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:29
			And you and I know that justice underlies it is fundamental to the fabric of life when justice
breaks down.
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:52
			We've seen in our country violence racists hate units of justice breaks down. Justice in the home
breaks down justice in the community breaks down justice in the courts break down justice in the
implementing of justice in the police system breaks down, the whole system collapses. So our long
silences so tonight.
		
00:05:53 --> 00:06:15
			Yeah, you will levena Armando Kudo. Our Mina de la hija de Bie locust la sala says, Oh, you people
who believe be steadfast witnesses for Allah, in equity or interest. What does it mean? Beef stick
for fast witnesses Well, it means that your full commitment
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:18
			your full
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:24
			allegiance is with Allah alone.
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:29
			When you speak you speak
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:34
			to elevate the word which allows for hamata sent to us
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:44
			and allows wonderla says late not hatred of any people seduce you that you do not justly.
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:55
			So just as we expect our to deal justly with us. So allows wildly expects us to deal justly with
other people. Deal justly Allah says
		
00:06:56 --> 00:07:05
			that is near to your duty. In fact, it is your duty, near but it is your duty, observe your duty to
Allah. have Taqwa
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:14
			really allows for hundreds informed with what you do unless he knows everything that you do. And we
will take this justice on different planes
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:20
			as a hobby,
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:32
			but then you have no amount of money but she won the lottery and he said he was a young man. And his
father gave him a gift in a DVD said his father gave him a horse as a gift.
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:38
			But his mother, um, Robin Tarawa
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:41
			said to him,
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:49
			I do not agree with your father, that you should give you this gift.
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:54
			Mother sometimes they have more
		
00:07:56 --> 00:08:04
			of a more equitable nature than fathers have fathers tend sometimes to favor some children above
other children.
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:17
			Mothers most of the time, then to look at all the siblings equally. So fathers have this tendency to
to favoritism. And this mother saw that as when
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:28
			Norman had a leaning of favoritism towards the sun and he gave the Sonos and he said I will not
agree to this unless and until
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:34
			the Prophet himself is a witness to this transaction.
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:46
			I want you and your father to go to the Navy so Salaam and then Ibiza solemn, must witness the fact
that your father had given this horse to you only then will accept.
		
00:08:48 --> 00:09:02
			So the father took the son to the Nabi sallallahu alayhi wasallam. And he said to the Prophet, the
Rasul Allah, I've given this gift to my son, and I wish you to be a witness that it is gift but now
belongs to him.
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:09
			So the prophets of Salaam said to him say to Norman akula wala duck, Nikhil, Tabitha
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:16
			Prophet said to him, tell me Norman, did you give each child a similar gift?
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:33
			gave the child or do you give all your children roses? He said, Lyra Salalah only gave him owes. Now
Mr. Salama responded and said it Apple law tequila and the loopy oladipo. Baby Salim said to him,
Fear Allah.
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:47
			Be mindful of your deity to Allah subhanaw taala why the loo and what is your duty to allow Swanton
that is to be just as the loo be just
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:50
			be just
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:57
			fee Oh, logical when it comes to your children. You should treat all of them equally.
		
00:09:59 --> 00:09:59
			You're not really
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:01
			Why to do this to your wives,
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:10
			but your children required to love all your wives equally. But you are required to love all your
children equally.
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:15
			Every society team, so do justice
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:58
			providentially to him in Neela shadow Allah Jo Rin evisa salam said, I will not be a witness to this
transaction, because this is an unjust transaction, go home, I will not be a witness to this
transaction. So it shows on a very basic level. I mean, we think sometimes you know, but as my money
or it's, this belongs to me, I can give it to I want to give it or this son is better than the other
one. Or this daughter is a better daughter than the other daughter, or the son has given me more
problems and the other son, or I just like the other son, because maybe looks like me.
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:12
			Or I like the daughter, maybe because she wears a scarf and the other one doesn't wear a scarf.
You're not allowed to discriminate between you children, as parents, as a parent not allowed to do
that.
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:25
			And as a person in charge of other people, you're not allowed to favor your employees one above the
other because of a personal one or a personal fancy
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:37
			American last Rajaratnam also great to have you have you know the name he was put in charge of
Egypt. He was the first governor of Egypt after the conquest of Egypt.
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:41
			No, no.
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:48
			It wasn't in time Omar will hottub Omar Omar in the time former Egypt was conquered and Omar made
him the Khalifa.
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:56
			But this happened after him sorry, this wasn't nice time. This was in the time of
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:01
			memories.
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:06
			The fifth halifa I can't wait to see anyway.
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:11
			He said was walking in the street one day in Cairo.
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:15
			And an ordinary man was walking in front of him.
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:21
			And he pushed the man out of the way and the man refused any work the man with his work.
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:29
			And he said Who do you think you are? You know who I am. I am the son of the ruler and the ruler
son.
		
00:12:30 --> 00:13:13
			So the man sitting by this he said the man was so caught up about this men are so affected. He went
to Medina, Thomasville hardtop, and he said to armor, armor, this is what your Harley fastener done
to me, he would mean the street because I walked in front of him. So almost Israeli, said yes must
send a messenger to the halifa armory when America was named Omar Abdulaziz center missing the dream
to say to him, your son is here I want you to come and bring you this man is laid a complaint please
bring you come with yourself to Medina. And they came to Medina. And it was established by American
labs azeez by American hottub that he beat this man.
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:26
			And our say to him, gave the judgment and say to him in the judgment he said to him, Mata estaba
tunas, work hard to adapt to Omaha to Aurora. He said
		
00:13:28 --> 00:13:49
			to the young men, the prince, since when do you enslave people, when Allah had given birth when
their mothers had given birth to them as female? Look at the freedom of Islam. Look at the democracy
in Islam. He said, since when do you say enslave people when their mothers gave birth to them as
free men.
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:55
			So that is the basic level of justice.
		
00:13:57 --> 00:13:59
			And when it comes to wives and more than one wife,
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:04
			then materially you are
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:15
			under an obligation to give each wife equally materially terms of money, houses, cars, material
things, you are not
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:45
			you will not be judged or asked by Allah but how much you love the one above the other one? No. The
Prophet always cried. Now let's say the Allah please do not hold me responsible for matters of my
heart. I cannot decide who I should love and not loving tells my wives that is comes from our heart.
So I'm not responsible for that. But you can hold me responsible for if I do not deal with them,
equally intimate in matters of,
		
00:14:47 --> 00:15:00
			of material things. So justice then is the fourth proclamation of surah. Al made very important in
our lives and very important in the life of a community. We can see
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:25
			Today, all the violence that is going on, it is the breaking of the covenant which we have with
Allah subhanaw taala, including the Christians and the Jews itself. They've also broken the covenant
with a loss Parramatta, intuitive, neither will also come across the first murder committed in the
sea of men. We come across the first murder committed by men upon men, namely, the murder of
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:34
			Hobbes by corbeil. That correct, but the other way around, is it our bill was the good man in
Kerberos, the bad man
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:38
			and we know the story that
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:41
			the historians tell us
		
00:15:44 --> 00:16:03
			this happened many, many 1000 millions of years ago so we have only the prophecies and didn't say
anything about it. There are some Hadith on it, but it's not authentic. I mean, not authentic
authentic like in Buhari or Muslim way they say that they'll be Adam Alice's salami having been the
first man and his wife, however, being the first woman who was nobody else on Earth.
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:09
			Whoever however, was pregnant, she gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl.
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:15
			And again, she would give birth to boy in a girl and a boy of the one.
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:44
			Beth would marry the girl of the other birth. And so you couldn't marry the girl that he was born
with. You have to marry the girl from the from another from another birth. So there was a
complication and there was rivalry between two brothers named you have in common as to which
daughter they should marry harville didn't want to marry the daughter that was destined for him. He
said the girl that for carbon was I mean, hobbles Sorry, I this girl was
		
00:16:45 --> 00:17:01
			was nicer and prettier. So corbeil didn't want to accept his bride. And he, his father, maybe Adam
ordered them to make a sacrifice. The sacrifice of harville was accepted. kaabil sacrifices are
accepted.
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:09
			And harville was so angered by this that he decided to kill his brother.
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:17
			That is the first murder committed in the history of man. So having killed Bobby, and allows mahanoy
tala
		
00:17:18 --> 00:17:29
			talks about this incident and the severity of this incident. But it's not so much about the murder
of RB that the Quran concentrates on the Quran concentrates
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:34
			on the response of harville to his brother threatening to kill him.
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:38
			When his brother threatened to kill him What did he say? He said,
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:49
			If you threatened to kill me, I'm not going to raise my hands to you want to do anything? You decide
that is your what you want to do. If you don't fear allows for hunter then
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:55
			I put my trust and faith in allows Hunter. So
		
00:17:57 --> 00:18:05
			it was more about the reaction of the victim rather than the act of the perpetrator in this regard.
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:09
			And we're here with an emphasis Allah
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:12
			talks about killing
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:30
			and particularly Muslims killing Muslims, Nafisa Salaam says in a hadith is that awaji Muslim money
per se fe Hema episode Sallam said, If two Muslims meet with guns or swords or knives, or whatever
it is,
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:34
			intending to fight with one another.
		
00:18:36 --> 00:18:38
			for coffee lovers wallmark tool
		
00:18:40 --> 00:18:44
			in Ibiza Salaam says both the murderer and the victim go to *.
		
00:18:45 --> 00:19:04
			Both the murderer and the murdered person will go to jail. So of course, it's a Havasu rasulillah.
But how is it possible? How is it that the victim will also go to Johanna episode Samson, because he
also had the intention of killing his killer.
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:11
			So both had intention to kill each other. Unless, of course, the one person was
		
00:19:13 --> 00:19:17
			an armed and other person killed. Two Muslims
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:23
			intend to kill each other, both the perpetrator and the victim and we'll go to john.
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:32
			So as I said in our current Harrison, alacati sahibi, because both had the intention of killing the
other one now
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:41
			brings us of course, to a very important topic, which of course, is the wars taking place at the
moment in Syria, Afghanistan, and all these places where Muslims are
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:45
			killing other Muslims.
		
00:19:47 --> 00:19:58
			Even Abby Solomon said that Muslims who kill other Muslims, both will go to jahannam. What is the
condition then, of those Muslims that kill themselves?
		
00:20:01 --> 00:20:02
			I think it is important
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:06
			that
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:11
			we understand
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:16
			that in the context of oppression
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:20
			This is not just anger
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:26
			in the context of the removal of an oppressor
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:30
			or usurper
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:34
			or a leader
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:40
			who doesn't practice justice amongst these people be a Muslim or non Muslim
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:51
			that becomes obligatory upon man to remove such a person from his position, and all those who are
supporting
		
00:20:52 --> 00:21:00
			so yeah, it's not a question just if it's just a question of Muslims killing other Muslims for no
reason whatsoever. Like you don't like the Muslims you're killing.
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:17
			That is the victim and the purpose of going to * but we Muslims are fighting another person, be a
Muslim or non Muslim, to remove him from an oppressive position which holds over other Muslims, then
that is part of our obligation to allows
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:39
			or if you fight a Muslim because he goes against the laws of the Quran, then that is an ultimate,
and that is presidents in the history of Islam. abubaker acidic Rolla Tron sent an army against
Muslims for only one reason and one reason alone 1000s of Muslims were killed in this battle.
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:45
			The only reason is sent out to them was they refuse to pay the car to him.
		
00:21:46 --> 00:22:25
			They said after the death of the Navy so solemn they said we will not play soccer anymore because
Mohammed Salim has died because he has passed away. It stops. So Rebecca said well, law he, even if
you keep away from me the rope that ties the neck of the camel, nevermind the camel, I will fight
you until you give it although I was against sending an army, he said but he said, How can you send
the army? These people c'est la ilaha illAllah they make Salah they fought in the month of Ramadan,
they go for Hajj and you want to kill them? He said, of course.
		
00:22:28 --> 00:22:40
			Islam is an indivisible faith, you can divide take one principle out of the deen if you take one
principle out, if you take one color out all building collapses.
		
00:22:41 --> 00:22:52
			And I'm not going to set the precedent in Islam. So it's very important to distinguish between the
removal of oppression, not the operation which America tells us our places.
		
00:22:54 --> 00:22:54
			That's another matter.
		
00:22:56 --> 00:23:02
			We shouldn't be saying, well, America saying there's no democracy in country x and therefore those
people are
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:07
			it's an obligation for the west to go in there to kill. No.
		
00:23:08 --> 00:23:11
			We are talking about real oppression. We're talking about
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:24
			real denial of people of their rights in a particular country in a particular situation. And reppin
many times in history segnale karamo llotja going against mafia
		
00:23:25 --> 00:23:38
			went against walls were fought between Muslims, not because they were Muslims at the time, but
because of the oppression which they spread throughout their allows rather than a visa Salam says
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:42
			about oppression and about
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:45
			the oppressor and the oppressed.
		
00:23:52 --> 00:23:56
			Now visa Salam says it to feed our children Thelma Lu,
		
00:23:58 --> 00:24:00
			y incarnate min Catherine
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:06
			for ino, les Sabina. However, in the life Jacques evisa salam says,
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:12
			Take care and be aware and be afraid
		
00:24:14 --> 00:24:18
			of the draw of a person whom you have oppressed.
		
00:24:19 --> 00:24:21
			who may have done the wrong to
		
00:24:22 --> 00:24:28
			what incarnate mean carefully, even if it is the door of a cafe.
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:35
			What does anybody say? Be careful of the DA of the oppressed.
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:51
			Many times because we come from a dark heritage of apartheid.
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:56
			Some of us still believe
		
00:24:58 --> 00:25:00

			So it's a very serious matter.
		
00:25:44 --> 00:25:55

			The Prophet didn't have an answer. He couldn't answer her couldn't given an answer. He had to wait
for revelation.
		
00:28:26 --> 00:28:28
			And Allah revealed to the novices all

the greatest covenant with the Christians broke with Allah was the covenant of La ilaha illa Allah

			that they had elevated
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:55
			the status of Nagisa to such a level
		
00:29:56 --> 00:29:58
			that they made him into a god

			It should not have gone to Mohammed, it should have gone to Ali.

00:31:40 --> 00:31:43
			Because the moment we start the process of elevation,
		
00:31:45 --> 00:31:48
			we have no idea where it will end.
		
00:31:56 --> 00:31:58
			And we live in a world today

00:34:56 --> 00:34:58
			This is part of our faith.
		
00:35:02 --> 00:35:04
			So we should be very careful
		
00:35:05 --> 00:35:07
			not to follow
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:12
			the road that was taken by the B'nai Israel.
		
00:35:14 --> 00:35:19
			The Jews and the Christians. When they were commanded to do one thing,
		
00:35:20 --> 00:35:26
			they turn the face away from Allah and decided they want to do what they want to do.
		
00:35:28 --> 00:35:30
			And Allah what is the punishment?
		
00:35:32 --> 00:35:33
			Allah curse them.
		
00:35:38 --> 00:35:41
			And it is no major of historical incident
		
00:35:42 --> 00:35:48

00:35:49 --> 00:36:01
			by the Navy Salaam, with other people, other Muslims, I was in the hundreds people who came from

			And by the way, they also 12 people, just like the apostle also 12 three from the house nine from
the Hasidic two tribes of Medina.
		
00:36:11 --> 00:36:12
			And what was the covenants?
		
00:36:13 --> 00:36:16
			What was the covenant was novices are made with him
		
00:36:20 --> 00:36:22

00:36:24 --> 00:36:25
			Pay the car

			don't pay this as a car to your chef.

00:37:06 --> 00:37:08
			He will redistribute it.
		
00:37:09 --> 00:37:18
			Because he can see beyond what you can see as to what people's needs are love for God to petition
them in the Quran.
		
00:37:21 --> 00:37:30
			The Prophet forgot to tell us that in the year 2013, in Cape Town, people will have spiritual
leaders
		
00:37:31 --> 00:37:36
			who will demand the followers to give the car to them for redistribution.
		
00:37:38 --> 00:37:39
			These are all
		
00:37:41 --> 00:37:47
			the deviations that come from man made ideas.
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:50
			And man made spirituality.
		
00:37:56 --> 00:37:57
			alien to Islam.
		
00:37:58 --> 00:38:11
			Why is it alien to Islam? alien to Islam because it was not commanded by Allah and His messenger.
Don't because I say so. Because I don't like it or because I'm biased. I'm prejudice. It's got
nothing to do with me.
		
00:38:14 --> 00:38:17
			I'm just telling you, what you didn't is.
		
00:38:18 --> 00:38:31
			And if you can bring evidence to me that yes, you can do this and do that. That Yes, spirituality
does exist in Islam. written evidence. Yes, we have signs in Islam Bring me the evidence.
		
00:38:32 --> 00:38:38
			Yes, you must give whatever you have in zatara to you sufficient, make me the evidence.
		
00:38:42 --> 00:38:46
			But what is the evidence? You know what the evidence is? He doesn't understand
		
00:38:51 --> 00:38:55
			that he's talking to me doesn't understand. Talk to me about Quran and Sunnah.
		
00:38:59 --> 00:39:07
			So alswamitra has made these covenants with us. Believe in my messengers, support my messages.
		
00:39:08 --> 00:39:09
			Lane to Allah kindly loan.
		
00:39:12 --> 00:39:21
			Allah says, I will remit your sins, I will forgive your sins are bringing you into the gardens and
in these which rivers flow. These are challenges My dear brothers and sisters.
		
00:39:22 --> 00:39:25
			To be true to a covenant with Allah is not easy.
		
00:39:26 --> 00:39:27
			Not easy.
		
00:39:28 --> 00:39:30
			Not in the time in which we live.
		
00:39:31 --> 00:39:40
			We live in the rough times we live in times turbulent seas, you can pull from this side from that
side. The dounia pulls you one side.
		
00:39:42 --> 00:39:48
			The wife is on the other side journalism the other side your family's in the middle your brothers
and sisters on the other side. So patola
		
00:39:50 --> 00:39:59
			that another reward is so great. So remember Surah Al e Imran speaks about these covenants which
allows mahana tala
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:02
			Made with us as Muslims
		
00:40:05 --> 00:40:07
			have already gone to heaven and kaabil
		
00:40:12 --> 00:40:15
			and what is the greatest covenant which are Labate with us?
		
00:40:17 --> 00:40:22
			The greatest covenant which allows for honors made with us is the covenant of love.
		
00:40:25 --> 00:40:25
			What is love?
		
00:40:27 --> 00:40:34
			If you have love on the one side and you have an equal sign next to love, then what is love equals
Islam?
		
00:40:36 --> 00:40:40
			Love equals Islam love equals
		
00:40:42 --> 00:40:45
			your commitment to Islam as a Muslim
		
00:40:48 --> 00:40:51
			Why is it because our laws were how to tala
		
00:40:52 --> 00:40:57
			when talking about the greatest crime that a Muslim can commit which is what
		
00:40:59 --> 00:41:07
			what is the greatest senator Muslim can commit? The greatest sin that a Muslim can commit is to
leave his Deen
		
00:41:10 --> 00:41:17
			or to leave part of his Deen maybe mixer robber isn't by Sokka maybe it gives charity but but it
doesn't make Salah
		
00:41:19 --> 00:41:27
			maybe he does everything but he doesn't fast. These are all rejection of the deal. But let's talk
about the big one. The lt dad.
		
00:41:29 --> 00:41:45
			People becoming more tired leaving the deen of Allah. Luca Allah talks about it. Allah says oh you
believe you're Latina Aman monnier tedman Command D ye who renegades who leaves the deen of Islam?
		
00:41:47 --> 00:41:54
			What is p Allah say to him, Allah say to him, I want to put you in the deepest *. Well straight
out on top of you.
		
00:41:56 --> 00:42:02
			allows one that says I will bring up people whom he loves and who love him.
		
00:42:04 --> 00:42:06
			So what is the love of Allah?
		
00:42:07 --> 00:42:09
			Because many people talk about the love of Allah.
		
00:42:12 --> 00:42:14
			Do they ask people why do you do this?
		
00:42:18 --> 00:42:18
			I love Allah.
		
00:42:21 --> 00:42:29
			So, Allah, Allah says, You leave my Dean you leaving the love, which I have for you.
		
00:42:30 --> 00:42:33
			You rejecting the love which I have for you.
		
00:42:39 --> 00:42:54
			And allows Wagner says he will bring a nation or a people or a person who will love him and he will
love will be humbled towards other believers, stern towards the disbelievers striving in the way of
Allah making Jihad
		
00:42:55 --> 00:42:57
			and fearing not the blame of any blamer
		
00:43:05 --> 00:43:14
			What does it mean? It means that he speaks the truth and doesn't care what people say.
		
00:43:18 --> 00:43:20
			Because Mohammed Salim said,
		
00:43:21 --> 00:43:25
			Only half follow Connemara, speak the truth, even if it is better.
		
00:43:27 --> 00:43:29
			Now visa Salam said,
		
00:43:30 --> 00:43:33
			What is pride? pride is
		
00:43:34 --> 00:43:37
			to reject the truth when you hear it
		
00:43:38 --> 00:43:40
			and to look down upon other people.
		
00:43:42 --> 00:43:43
			Botha rock
		
00:43:49 --> 00:43:51
			so one can understand.
		
00:43:52 --> 00:43:55
			I'm talking to you in looking at all your faces.
		
00:43:57 --> 00:44:04
			And I'm thinking to myself, I picture the Nabi sallallahu wasallam. Standing
		
00:44:07 --> 00:44:09
			on Mount suffi think
		
00:44:11 --> 00:44:13
			his first public speech,
		
00:44:14 --> 00:44:18
			his first public speech he stood on lands of no matter where you go for
		
00:44:22 --> 00:44:25
			an Aboriginal. Now Abu lahab was there
		
00:44:27 --> 00:44:32
			and he gave it simple message. This is some sent to the Quraysh
		
00:44:33 --> 00:44:35
			I'm the Messenger of Allah.
		
00:44:36 --> 00:44:38
			You should worship Allah.
		
00:44:39 --> 00:44:50
			Don't turn away from Allah. don't worship these idols. They stones they did. They can't help you.
They can't harm you, nor can they do good to you.
		
00:44:51 --> 00:44:58
			I can almost imagine how those idol worshippers must have looked at him and said
		
00:44:59 --> 00:44:59
			now
		
00:45:00 --> 00:45:00
			Man,
		
00:45:02 --> 00:45:14
			what is this man doing? Does he think that he can come up against the might of people like Abu Jaan
Abdullah and destroy this faith which we had for 1000s of years.
		
00:45:17 --> 00:45:23
			And I can imagine the feeling that he must have had standing there alone, challenging his people.
		
00:45:25 --> 00:45:29
			It wasn't so much a challenge of faith as a challenge of intellect.
		
00:45:32 --> 00:45:42
			A challenge of the mind, a challenge of saying to them, exercise, the greatest gift which I'll let
given to you the mind.
		
00:45:46 --> 00:45:56
			Read your Koran with your mind. Look at the life of Muhammad Hassan with your mind, not your
traditional upbringing and your culture and your habits.
		
00:46:02 --> 00:46:05
			But look at the soul which Allah given to the life
		
00:46:08 --> 00:46:12
			so the challenge my dear brothers and I can appreciate your challenge.
		
00:46:13 --> 00:46:20
			I mean, we live in a world today we have we don't know whether what we eating is hollow. Nevermind
the stamps of way of putting a stamp on the food.
		
00:46:22 --> 00:46:29
			I'm at the point now where I can't eat anything that I fear to eat anything which has a stamp on
around the things without steps.
		
00:46:35 --> 00:46:38
			But it's not a joke. It's very serious. I feel that
		
00:46:40 --> 00:46:43
			you know, sometimes you think what have I eaten a god?
		
00:46:46 --> 00:46:48
			If we can't even look after the beef
		
00:46:51 --> 00:46:52
			and the mutton?
		
00:46:54 --> 00:47:01
			What about all the other stuff that donkey and the horse? And how do we control that as a community?
		
00:47:04 --> 00:47:11
			But I think it's a wake up call for us as Muslims is not a wake up call for the organizations that
gives us certificates. They will never wake up.
		
00:47:15 --> 00:47:16
			It's a wake up call for me in you.
		
00:47:18 --> 00:47:20
			What is the wake up call? eat at home?
		
00:47:25 --> 00:47:26
			By your things.
		
00:47:28 --> 00:47:32
			eat at home. I think that's the wake up call for us a lot stronger. It's giving us admission.
		
00:47:36 --> 00:47:37
			That is your tradition.
		
00:47:38 --> 00:47:40
			That is a good tradition.
