00:00:01 --> 00:00:02
			Just as we
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:04
			hate,
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:06
			acts like,
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:11
			why can't we be disgusted
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:14
			for people who commit such acts?
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:16
			The way
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19
			that is most according with the sunnah
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:21
			is that we
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:25
			hate the wrongdoing, not the wrongdoer.
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:27
			We hate the sin and not the sinner.
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			Rather, we look at
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			Allah's creation
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:35
			with the eye of mercy,
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:40
			with the commitment of being of sincere
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43
			counsel and concern to them.
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:46
			That is our duty as believers.
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:47
			Right?
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50
			That is our duty as believers,
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			to have a good opinion of them that
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:55
			the person who is committing a sin, maybe
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:58
			they did it in a moment of weakness.
		
00:00:58 --> 00:00:59
			Maybe they did
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02
			it out of forgetfulness, out of error.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:03
			They're struggling.
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:05
			Their companions
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			of our beloved prophet
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:09
			who were punished
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:11
			for drinking alcohol.
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:13
			And when some
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			some other companions spoke ill of them, the
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:16
			prophet said,
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			don't say bad things about them
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			because this is a person who loves
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:25
			Allah and his messenger. This is a person
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:27
			who loves
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:29
			Allah and his messenger.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:32
			It's not a light matter. He loves
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:34
			Allah and his messenger. Similarly,
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			there's a man who committed Zina, a Sahabi
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:38
			who committed Zina.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:43
			And then he committed Zina again. He committed
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:44
			Zina again. He was punished.
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:48
			And some people were bad mouthing him. And
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			the prophet
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:50
			said,
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:53
			stop.
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:57
			Don't assist his Shaitan against him. Meaning, the
		
00:01:57 --> 00:01:58
			the man is struggling.
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:01
			Why are you adding to his struggle?
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			By shaming him.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:08
			And this is particularly for those who
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:10
			are sinning out of struggle,
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:12
			people who are sinning
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:13
			out of struggle.
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			So we ask Allah to
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:18
			uphold that prophetic
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			character and concern.
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:30
			And there's some detail to this. And in
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32
			our classes on the Tarikhul Muhammediyyah, we we
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:34
			we look at what the Ulema say about
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:36
			this with some detail.
