Wa raha'atulahi wa rakatul.

00:00:10 --> 00:00:12

Masha'Allah we,

00:00:12 --> 00:00:14

by Allah Ta'al's Fathil have reached this Mubarak

00:00:15 --> 00:00:17

14th night

00:00:17 --> 00:00:18

of

00:00:18 --> 00:00:19

Ramadan,

00:00:20 --> 00:00:22

the night of the 2nd Jumuah of Ramadan.

00:00:22 --> 00:00:24

May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala give us from

00:00:24 --> 00:00:25

its barakah and its nur

00:00:25 --> 00:00:28

Amin. May Allah ta'ala give us tawfiq.

00:00:28 --> 00:00:31

These Jum'as are only 4 this year

00:00:32 --> 00:00:33

and they are not 5.

00:00:34 --> 00:00:36

And, it behooves us to take benefit in

00:00:36 --> 00:00:38

these Mubarak nights and the days that follow

00:00:38 --> 00:00:41

them and to not waste, any time or

00:00:41 --> 00:00:43

any breath therein.

00:00:43 --> 00:00:45

The only thing a person will regret is

00:00:45 --> 00:00:46

the good that they didn't do,

00:00:47 --> 00:00:48

in such Mubarak nights.

00:00:50 --> 00:00:52

So we continue our reading from,

00:00:53 --> 00:00:54

Azer Sheikh Zakaria,

00:00:55 --> 00:00:56

Sheikoh Hadith,

00:00:58 --> 00:00:58

Kandlui,

00:00:59 --> 00:00:59

Rahim

00:01:11 --> 00:01:13

of the, Mavahir Ullum in Saharanpur,

00:01:15 --> 00:01:16

the Khalifa of

00:01:17 --> 00:01:19

Mullana Rashid, Ahmed Ganguhi

00:01:20 --> 00:01:20

through

00:01:21 --> 00:01:22

his Khalifa,

00:01:23 --> 00:01:25

Azar Sheikh.

00:01:26 --> 00:01:29

Hazrat Sheikh Khalil Ahmad Saharan Puri.

00:01:31 --> 00:01:33

Mullana Zakaria is a very interesting individual. He

00:01:33 --> 00:01:34

left behind,

00:01:34 --> 00:01:36

a number of works,

00:01:37 --> 00:01:38

both in terms of his

00:01:39 --> 00:01:40

writings,

00:01:41 --> 00:01:41

like this,

00:01:42 --> 00:01:43

like this book

00:01:43 --> 00:01:44

or like

00:01:45 --> 00:01:48

his commentary, the Ojazul Masalik on the Mu'tav

00:01:48 --> 00:01:49

Imam Malik, like

00:01:50 --> 00:01:52

his commentary in Urdu on the, Sh'mayl of

00:01:52 --> 00:01:55

Imam Tirmidhi, like his compiling work for

00:01:56 --> 00:01:58

the notes on Abu Dawud of his sheikh,

00:01:58 --> 00:01:59

Mullan Khil Ahmed.

00:02:01 --> 00:02:03

And also he left behind a number of

00:02:03 --> 00:02:03

men,

00:02:04 --> 00:02:06

a number of great men, who were his,

00:02:06 --> 00:02:06

Khalafah.

00:02:07 --> 00:02:08

May Allah,

00:02:10 --> 00:02:12

give us a tawfiqah benefiting from those who

00:02:12 --> 00:02:13

are still around.

00:02:15 --> 00:02:16

I met

00:02:17 --> 00:02:18

by Allah's father I had the

00:02:19 --> 00:02:21

honor of meeting a number of them several

00:02:21 --> 00:02:23

of whom have passed from this world.

00:02:24 --> 00:02:25

Who I can think of,

00:02:26 --> 00:02:28

to this day that that's with us

00:02:28 --> 00:02:30

is Mawana Bilal Bawa,

00:02:30 --> 00:02:31

who,

00:02:32 --> 00:02:33

is in the north of England.

00:02:34 --> 00:02:35

And,

00:02:36 --> 00:02:39

Masha'Allah, a member of the Masha'i from Saharanpur

00:02:41 --> 00:02:43

came and were involved in the various efforts

00:02:43 --> 00:02:44

of

00:02:45 --> 00:02:46

Islam in,

00:02:46 --> 00:02:48

England and in South Africa.

00:02:48 --> 00:02:49

In England,

00:02:50 --> 00:02:52

in particular, Mawana Yusuf Mu'tala,

00:02:52 --> 00:02:53

the

00:02:54 --> 00:02:56

founder of the Darulum in Bari.

00:02:56 --> 00:02:57

I had the honor of

00:02:58 --> 00:02:59

trying to meet him once.

00:03:00 --> 00:03:01

I went to

00:03:01 --> 00:03:03

a gathering in the Azhar Academy

00:03:04 --> 00:03:04

and

00:03:06 --> 00:03:07

just the line to shake hands.

00:03:10 --> 00:03:12

It was so long.

00:03:12 --> 00:03:14

Just through seniority there was no way I

00:03:14 --> 00:03:15

could have gotten to it because

00:03:16 --> 00:03:17

I was

00:03:18 --> 00:03:20

way down the line. Mufti Abdul Rahman Mangera,

00:03:21 --> 00:03:23

he was I think like 17 in line

00:03:23 --> 00:03:23

by seniority,

00:03:24 --> 00:03:25

to meet the Sheikh

00:03:25 --> 00:03:26

and

00:03:26 --> 00:03:28

I hadn't I didn't have a dream so

00:03:28 --> 00:03:30

I just kind of said salaam from afar.

00:03:31 --> 00:03:34

Alhamdulillah and you know my disposition has always

00:03:34 --> 00:03:36

been not to bug the sheikh or to

00:03:36 --> 00:03:37

kind of fanboy, fangirl,

00:03:38 --> 00:03:39

the mashaikh.

00:03:40 --> 00:03:42

Why? Because the Maqsud of the tariqa is

00:03:42 --> 00:03:43

the love of Allah ta'ala,

00:03:44 --> 00:03:45

not the love of the creation.

00:03:46 --> 00:03:48

And every other human every other, you know,

00:03:48 --> 00:03:50

created thing, every other human being

00:03:50 --> 00:03:53

suffers from the weakness that comes with being

00:03:53 --> 00:03:53

created,

00:03:54 --> 00:03:55

like you and me.

00:03:55 --> 00:03:56

And

00:03:56 --> 00:03:58

in having mercy on that

00:03:59 --> 00:04:00

is a great,

00:04:00 --> 00:04:03

wasila, it means to getting Allah's love.

00:04:03 --> 00:04:06

So I always try not to bother the

00:04:06 --> 00:04:06

mashayikh.

00:04:06 --> 00:04:09

I always try not to ask stupid questions.

00:04:09 --> 00:04:11

I always try not to

00:04:13 --> 00:04:14

bother them

00:04:14 --> 00:04:16

or, you know, lick the cookie dough off

00:04:16 --> 00:04:17

of the sides of the bowl.

00:04:19 --> 00:04:20

But like in the human interaction,

00:04:22 --> 00:04:22

analog

00:04:23 --> 00:04:23

thereof.

00:04:24 --> 00:04:25

I always tried to be helpful. I always

00:04:25 --> 00:04:28

tried to smile. I always tried to, you

00:04:28 --> 00:04:29

know, and not just hang out and be

00:04:29 --> 00:04:30

like the 117th

00:04:31 --> 00:04:32

person to shake hands,

00:04:32 --> 00:04:34

when you see that the sheikh's obviously tired

00:04:34 --> 00:04:36

or whatever. I always try to be like

00:04:36 --> 00:04:37

that, with the mashaikh.

00:04:38 --> 00:04:38

And,

00:04:39 --> 00:04:41

alhamdulillah, masha'a baith Allah Sfadhu, it's paid off.

00:04:42 --> 00:04:44

Maybe, you know, so we don't distract tonight's

00:04:44 --> 00:04:46

majlis from our our reading from the Tasgirah,

00:04:46 --> 00:04:47

Masha'i Chishst,

00:04:47 --> 00:04:50

the remembrance and the recountance of the Masha'i

00:04:50 --> 00:04:53

Chishst of Hazrat Sheikh. I I I'll limit

00:04:53 --> 00:04:54

myself just to this,

00:04:56 --> 00:04:57

to to this one tangent

00:04:58 --> 00:04:58

that,

00:04:59 --> 00:05:02

Mawana Yousaf Mutala, I had a chance later

00:05:02 --> 00:05:03

on to meet him.

00:05:03 --> 00:05:06

And it was actually, far more Mubarak

00:05:06 --> 00:05:07

opportunity,

00:05:07 --> 00:05:09

than Azhar Academy. Even though Azhar Academy is

00:05:09 --> 00:05:11

a great place too in London.

00:05:11 --> 00:05:14

Check out their bookstore, check out their, institution.

00:05:14 --> 00:05:15

Masha'Allah.

00:05:16 --> 00:05:18

I had an opportunity in Hajj

00:05:19 --> 00:05:19

and,

00:05:20 --> 00:05:22

Mufti Abdul Rahman was going to meet him.

00:05:23 --> 00:05:25

And so I just kinda tagged along with

00:05:25 --> 00:05:27

him. God bless Mufti Saab. I've

00:05:28 --> 00:05:29

tagged along and,

00:05:30 --> 00:05:32

bothered him in a number of different

00:05:32 --> 00:05:33

interesting and wonderful

00:05:34 --> 00:05:37

continents of this world. And so

00:05:37 --> 00:05:38

he introduced me to,

00:05:40 --> 00:05:42

Sheikh Yousef Mutawah

00:05:43 --> 00:05:44

And surprisingly,

00:05:46 --> 00:05:48

Sheikh Yousef, who apparently doesn't isn't very verbose

00:05:48 --> 00:05:50

in his talking with people,

00:05:51 --> 00:05:53

He and I had had quite a long

00:05:53 --> 00:05:55

and a very interesting and

00:05:56 --> 00:05:56

informal,

00:05:57 --> 00:05:59

discussion. Well, informal for him. For me, I

00:05:59 --> 00:06:01

I usually am scared the daylights out of

00:06:01 --> 00:06:03

when sitting in front of the moshai. Not

00:06:03 --> 00:06:06

to say something particularly more stupid than the

00:06:06 --> 00:06:07

normal things that I say.

00:06:08 --> 00:06:10

But even I surprise myself from time to

00:06:10 --> 00:06:12

time. But at any rate, Masha'allah, he he

00:06:12 --> 00:06:13

opened up and told me a lot of

00:06:13 --> 00:06:14

different,

00:06:14 --> 00:06:17

interesting things. Many of which I won't mention

00:06:17 --> 00:06:18

to you right now.

00:06:18 --> 00:06:19

But,

00:06:19 --> 00:06:21

it was a it was a wonderful and

00:06:21 --> 00:06:22

graceful meeting.

00:06:22 --> 00:06:25

Obviously, Milana Youssef, he passed away

00:06:25 --> 00:06:27

not too long ago, in Toronto in the

00:06:27 --> 00:06:30

path of Allah Ta'ala far from his home,

00:06:31 --> 00:06:32

in the service of Deen.

00:06:33 --> 00:06:34

May Allah

00:06:35 --> 00:06:36

make his grave

00:06:37 --> 00:06:39

a garden from the Gardens of Paradise and

00:06:39 --> 00:06:42

fill it with Noor. And like that everybody

00:06:42 --> 00:06:42

who,

00:06:42 --> 00:06:45

everybody who died on iman and like that

00:06:45 --> 00:06:48

everybody from the ulama and mashaikh of this

00:06:48 --> 00:06:48

noble tariq

00:06:49 --> 00:06:50

and from from them all of those who

00:06:50 --> 00:06:51

passed away

00:06:52 --> 00:06:53

far from their homes in the service of

00:06:53 --> 00:06:55

the deen of Allah ta'ala.

00:06:55 --> 00:06:57

But at any rate, Masha'Allah Hazar Sheikh, he's

00:06:57 --> 00:06:59

known both by his

00:06:59 --> 00:07:00

works that he's authored

00:07:01 --> 00:07:03

and as well, by the

00:07:03 --> 00:07:06

the people who, he made. May Allah subhanahu

00:07:06 --> 00:07:07

wa ta'ala

00:07:08 --> 00:07:08

give

00:07:09 --> 00:07:11

us that the color of that dye should

00:07:11 --> 00:07:12

also splash onto our clothes

00:07:13 --> 00:07:14

and that we should be colored in it

00:07:14 --> 00:07:16

as well even though,

00:07:17 --> 00:07:19

by Makan and Zaman. By time and place

00:07:19 --> 00:07:20

we've been separated,

00:07:20 --> 00:07:21

from him,

00:07:22 --> 00:07:22

so far.

00:07:23 --> 00:07:24

A particularly

00:07:24 --> 00:07:26

interesting book that he wrote by the way

00:07:26 --> 00:07:28

is his Apti, his autobiography,

00:07:29 --> 00:07:30

which is in 6 volumes.

00:07:31 --> 00:07:33

The first five volumes are

00:07:33 --> 00:07:34

translated in English and

00:07:35 --> 00:07:35

sold separately.

00:07:36 --> 00:07:38

And, the 6th volume

00:07:39 --> 00:07:41

which is in particular about saluk and about

00:07:41 --> 00:07:42

the Sowof,

00:07:42 --> 00:07:44

I think the translators

00:07:44 --> 00:07:45

stayed away from it because

00:07:46 --> 00:07:48

they may have feared that the English speaking

00:07:48 --> 00:07:50

audience wouldn't have an appetite for it.

00:07:50 --> 00:07:52

I found it in South Africa translated

00:07:53 --> 00:07:55

and I bought it and it really is,

00:07:56 --> 00:07:57

that's, you know,

00:07:57 --> 00:07:59

the whole thing is wonderful but it really

00:07:59 --> 00:08:01

is like there's a lot of kherinbarakah in

00:08:01 --> 00:08:05

it. And, you know, much like many, sadly,

00:08:05 --> 00:08:06

many of the Ulema of the Oban in

00:08:06 --> 00:08:07

the subcontinent,

00:08:09 --> 00:08:12

Those people who undertook translations of their works

00:08:12 --> 00:08:14

have not been very good at what they

00:08:14 --> 00:08:16

did and they didn't do it with Ihsan

00:08:16 --> 00:08:18

and they did it with a type of

00:08:19 --> 00:08:20

unprofessionalism,

00:08:21 --> 00:08:21

which,

00:08:22 --> 00:08:24

fills my heart with anger.

00:08:25 --> 00:08:26

And,

00:08:27 --> 00:08:30

it's really sad and there's no justification for

00:08:30 --> 00:08:31

it. It's not right.

00:08:31 --> 00:08:34

However, mashallah, the translations of the the the

00:08:34 --> 00:08:36

2 chapter or the 2, different volumes 1

00:08:36 --> 00:08:38

through 5 and then volume 6 of the

00:08:38 --> 00:08:40

Abbitti of Hazr al Sheik,

00:08:41 --> 00:08:41

aapb

00:08:42 --> 00:08:44

e t I, which I think it's actually

00:08:44 --> 00:08:46

sold under that name even in in the

00:08:46 --> 00:08:47

English translation, Abbitti.

00:08:49 --> 00:08:51

Those are actually really those are actually really

00:08:51 --> 00:08:54

decent translations. They're not flawless or of like

00:08:54 --> 00:08:57

the a list variety, but they are they're

00:08:57 --> 00:08:59

pretty good given

00:09:00 --> 00:09:02

the difficulty of translating such works.

00:09:02 --> 00:09:04

And they're definitely good enough that if the

00:09:04 --> 00:09:06

reader wants to find the the chered in

00:09:06 --> 00:09:07

it, the good in it, they will find

00:09:07 --> 00:09:09

it. And I do recommend that you

00:09:11 --> 00:09:12

grab and read those books.

00:09:13 --> 00:09:15

You might find yourself, not able to put

00:09:15 --> 00:09:16

them down.

00:09:16 --> 00:09:19

That's how interest interesting they are. But, for

00:09:19 --> 00:09:21

now back to the tazkira mashayikhishst

00:09:22 --> 00:09:24

and the discussion about the khulafa rashidun, the

00:09:24 --> 00:09:26

khulafa of the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi

00:09:26 --> 00:09:27

wa sallam.

00:09:28 --> 00:09:29

Hazar al Sheikh

00:09:29 --> 00:09:30

in translation

00:09:31 --> 00:09:31

says,

00:09:32 --> 00:09:33

since this treatise is a book about the

00:09:33 --> 00:09:35

lives of the Sillsullah Chishtiya,

00:09:36 --> 00:09:38

The logical demand is to narrate the life

00:09:38 --> 00:09:41

of Sayyidina Ali radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu Waqahu

00:09:41 --> 00:09:44

after the messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

00:09:45 --> 00:09:48

Because in this silsula, Sayna Ali radiAllahu an

00:09:48 --> 00:09:50

whose name appears after that of the Nabi

00:09:50 --> 00:09:52

Akram Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:09:53 --> 00:09:55

Nevertheless, something of the lives of the other

00:09:55 --> 00:09:57

khulafa Rashidun will be presented here because in

00:09:57 --> 00:09:58

reality,

00:09:58 --> 00:09:59

the tavkira,

00:09:59 --> 00:10:01

and the mention of the khulafa Rashidun

00:10:02 --> 00:10:03

is necessary,

00:10:04 --> 00:10:07

a necessary addendum to the tawkeera of Rasool

00:10:07 --> 00:10:09

Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. In fact, it is

00:10:09 --> 00:10:11

the closing chapter of the discussion of Rasool

00:10:11 --> 00:10:14

Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam's life. Again, this is

00:10:14 --> 00:10:16

a very Sunni idea

00:10:16 --> 00:10:18

that even the messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi

00:10:19 --> 00:10:20

in the Sahih Hadith.

00:10:22 --> 00:10:23

He

00:10:24 --> 00:10:24

he mentions

00:10:28 --> 00:10:31

That as if the sunnah of the khulafaarashidun

00:10:31 --> 00:10:33

is an extension of the sunnah of the

00:10:33 --> 00:10:35

prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam.

00:10:35 --> 00:10:37

Azul Sheikh continues,

00:10:37 --> 00:10:40

according to some mashay, the 3 Khalifa radiAllahu

00:10:40 --> 00:10:43

anhu play an important role in the spiritual

00:10:43 --> 00:10:46

and moral excellences of Sayna Ali radiAllahu anhu

00:10:46 --> 00:10:46

himself,

00:10:47 --> 00:10:48

the head of the tariqa.

00:10:49 --> 00:10:49

Furthermore,

00:10:50 --> 00:10:52

these Mashaikh also narrate the mediums of the

00:10:52 --> 00:10:53

Khalafar Rashidun

00:10:54 --> 00:10:55

in the, 4,

00:10:56 --> 00:10:59

major chains of Tassaluf. There are 4 major

00:10:59 --> 00:11:01

chains of the Sowef in the Indian subcontinent

00:11:01 --> 00:11:02

and that's what he's talking about. Not to

00:11:02 --> 00:11:04

say that there are only 4 tariqas in

00:11:04 --> 00:11:05

the entire world.

00:11:07 --> 00:11:10

The Qadiriya, Chishtiya, Sohurvardiya, and Nakshbandiya.

00:11:12 --> 00:11:15

It is therefore considered appropriate to present brief

00:11:15 --> 00:11:18

discussions of the 3 holafa before commencing,

00:11:19 --> 00:11:21

the name sequence of this treatise, meaning the

00:11:21 --> 00:11:24

sequence of the Masha'i Chazee appear on the

00:11:24 --> 00:11:25

Shajar HaMubarakah,

00:11:26 --> 00:11:27

of the Tariq Heshishtiyyah.

00:11:28 --> 00:11:30

I'll add that,

00:11:30 --> 00:11:32

many hadith are narrated,

00:11:33 --> 00:11:35

even in the world of hadith, many hadith

00:11:35 --> 00:11:36

are narrated

00:11:36 --> 00:11:38

through different routes.

00:11:38 --> 00:11:39

And the only

00:11:40 --> 00:11:41

only route or the only tariq or the

00:11:41 --> 00:11:42

only, isnad

00:11:43 --> 00:11:45

names that are mentioned are the ones that

00:11:45 --> 00:11:47

are the shortest because if you narrate who

00:11:47 --> 00:11:48

learned what from who,

00:11:51 --> 00:11:53

practically it will make the chains of narration

00:11:53 --> 00:11:55

long and it will make the,

00:11:56 --> 00:11:59

books of hadith even longer and more, burden

00:11:59 --> 00:12:01

cumbersome to memorize and narrate. So for that

00:12:01 --> 00:12:04

reason, there's an idea in Isnaud called the

00:12:04 --> 00:12:04

Ulu

00:12:05 --> 00:12:08

that, if you read something from somebody,

00:12:09 --> 00:12:12

and then you had an opportunity to hear

00:12:12 --> 00:12:12

it from

00:12:13 --> 00:12:15

that person's sheikh or from their sheikh's sheikh,

00:12:16 --> 00:12:18

then when you narrate the hadith onward, you

00:12:18 --> 00:12:20

won't mention who you learned it from.

00:12:20 --> 00:12:22

And if you learned it from your sheikh's

00:12:22 --> 00:12:23

Sheikh, or if you heard it from your

00:12:23 --> 00:12:25

sheikh's Sheikh, he won't even mention his Sheikh.

00:12:25 --> 00:12:27

You'll just cut to you'll just cut to

00:12:27 --> 00:12:28

the the slowest,

00:12:30 --> 00:12:32

the the sorry. The shortest,

00:12:32 --> 00:12:33

path,

00:12:33 --> 00:12:34

to the source.

00:12:35 --> 00:12:37

And that's what happens. Otherwise, the tariqa, all

00:12:37 --> 00:12:39

of the turukah are through the 4 holofar

00:12:39 --> 00:12:39

Hasidun.

00:12:40 --> 00:12:42

The actual transference of the nisbah from one

00:12:42 --> 00:12:45

person to another, it's actually through the khulafa

00:12:45 --> 00:12:47

rashidun and it's through a number of other

00:12:47 --> 00:12:49

people whose names are not mentioned here. It's

00:12:49 --> 00:12:51

through a number of other people whose names

00:12:51 --> 00:12:52

are not mentioned here. I'll go out on

00:12:52 --> 00:12:54

a limb and say that every single one

00:12:54 --> 00:12:55

of the turuk also is

00:12:56 --> 00:12:57

transmitted through the 4,

00:12:58 --> 00:12:59

Imams, the 4 Madhabs

00:13:00 --> 00:13:01

at the very least. And the number of

00:13:01 --> 00:13:04

other prominent Ulemaan scholars and mashaikh and imams

00:13:04 --> 00:13:05

of Ahlulbayt,

00:13:06 --> 00:13:07

and other oliya.

00:13:08 --> 00:13:10

But because of the need for ulu, the

00:13:10 --> 00:13:12

need to shorten the chains of narration,

00:13:14 --> 00:13:15

those names are omitted.

00:13:15 --> 00:13:18

But just because they're omitted from mention, it

00:13:18 --> 00:13:20

doesn't mean that they're not there. That the

00:13:20 --> 00:13:22

nisbah and the secret and the sir that

00:13:22 --> 00:13:23

Allah Ta'ala,

00:13:24 --> 00:13:25

powers this deen through,

00:13:26 --> 00:13:28

that it didn't go through a longer and

00:13:28 --> 00:13:29

more interesting route

00:13:29 --> 00:13:31

than the one that's mentioned on paper.

00:13:33 --> 00:13:36

Sayid Nabu Bakr Sadiq radiAllahu ta'ala anhu.

00:13:36 --> 00:13:38

After the passing of the messenger of Allah

00:13:38 --> 00:13:41

Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, his vice jairncy in every

00:13:41 --> 00:13:41

respect

00:13:42 --> 00:13:45

devolved to Abu Bakr Siddiq radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu.

00:13:45 --> 00:13:47

By virtue of the oath of allegiance of

00:13:47 --> 00:13:50

the Muhajarin and the Ansar, he was appointed

00:13:50 --> 00:13:50

Khalifa,

00:13:51 --> 00:13:53

while Quranic verses allude to say in Abu

00:13:53 --> 00:13:56

Bakr's khilafa, the hadith of the prophet sallallahu

00:13:56 --> 00:13:57

alaihi wa sallam,

00:13:58 --> 00:14:00

in regards to this are clear in their

00:14:00 --> 00:14:00

meaning.

00:14:01 --> 00:14:05

Allah and the believers refuse to accept anybody

00:14:05 --> 00:14:07

but Abu Bakr is explicit on the issue

00:14:07 --> 00:14:08

of Abu Bakr's succession.

00:14:09 --> 00:14:12

The most important consideration in this regard is

00:14:12 --> 00:14:14

the total accord between the hearts of Rasoolullah

00:14:14 --> 00:14:16

sallallahu alaihi wa sallam and that of Abu

00:14:16 --> 00:14:17

Bakr's siddhir.

00:14:18 --> 00:14:20

This has been clearly stated by Hafez ibn

00:14:20 --> 00:14:21

Hajar in

00:14:22 --> 00:14:23

his lamir,

00:14:23 --> 00:14:25

volume 2, page 452.

00:14:25 --> 00:14:27

I don't know which print it is, however.

00:14:27 --> 00:14:31

Numerous incidents bear testimony to the mutual accord

00:14:31 --> 00:14:33

and unity between their hearts.

00:14:33 --> 00:14:35

For example, the anecdote of

00:14:36 --> 00:14:37

Abu al Hakim's

00:14:37 --> 00:14:38

invitation

00:14:39 --> 00:14:41

which had already been explained a few pages

00:14:41 --> 00:14:42

earlier.

00:14:42 --> 00:14:44

Also on the occasion of Hudaybiyyah,

00:14:44 --> 00:14:46

the answers which Abu Bakr Siddiq gave to

00:14:46 --> 00:14:48

the questions of Sayyidina Umar were the same

00:14:48 --> 00:14:49

as those,

00:14:50 --> 00:14:52

given by Rasool Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, Although

00:14:52 --> 00:14:55

he Abu Bakr Siddiq radiAllahu Anhu was not

00:14:55 --> 00:14:55

aware thereof.

00:14:57 --> 00:14:58

Regarding the captives,

00:14:58 --> 00:15:01

Badr, opinion of Abu Bakr Siddiq radiAllahu An

00:15:01 --> 00:15:03

who also conformed to the opinion of Rasool

00:15:03 --> 00:15:05

Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam I. E. That they

00:15:05 --> 00:15:06

should be not executed.

00:15:08 --> 00:15:10

The descriptions of Sayid Abu Bakr Siddiq radiallahuan

00:15:10 --> 00:15:12

who given by given by,

00:15:13 --> 00:15:14

even Dhuhunna

00:15:15 --> 00:15:16

conform conforms to

00:15:17 --> 00:15:19

the description of Rasool Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

00:15:19 --> 00:15:21

given by Sayyidah Khadija radiAllahu ta'ala Anha.

00:15:22 --> 00:15:24

Again, this is something that

00:15:24 --> 00:15:26

it's mentioned. It's mentioned in the hadith of

00:15:26 --> 00:15:27

the prophet

00:15:27 --> 00:15:28

that

00:15:28 --> 00:15:31

when Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said Abu Bakr

00:15:31 --> 00:15:31

Siddiq

00:15:34 --> 00:15:34

were

00:15:35 --> 00:15:36

coming

00:15:36 --> 00:15:38

in the home stretch to Medina Manawara

00:15:39 --> 00:15:40

during the hijra.

00:15:42 --> 00:15:45

The ansar couldn't tell who is who. And

00:15:45 --> 00:15:46

it wasn't until,

00:15:46 --> 00:15:50

they saw the Muhajirun crowding around Rasoolullah Sallallahu

00:15:50 --> 00:15:52

Alaihi Wasallam and they saw Sayyid Abu Bakr

00:15:52 --> 00:15:53

Siddiq radiAllahu ta'ala

00:15:53 --> 00:15:55

Anhu opening up

00:15:55 --> 00:15:56

his shawl,

00:15:56 --> 00:15:57

to shade

00:15:58 --> 00:16:00

the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam that

00:16:00 --> 00:16:02

they knew now who is Abu Bakr and

00:16:02 --> 00:16:03

who is,

00:16:03 --> 00:16:06

the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:16:06 --> 00:16:09

And this is something nisba il kai,

00:16:11 --> 00:16:13

that's mentioned by the Sufis that sometimes when

00:16:13 --> 00:16:15

nisba between two people

00:16:15 --> 00:16:17

becomes very strong they start to look like

00:16:17 --> 00:16:19

each other even though they may look physically

00:16:19 --> 00:16:21

nothing like each other but there's some uncanny

00:16:22 --> 00:16:24

resemblance between them even though their color might

00:16:24 --> 00:16:26

be different, that they may be,

00:16:26 --> 00:16:27

their physical,

00:16:28 --> 00:16:29

disposition may be different,

00:16:30 --> 00:16:32

their hair may be different. So many things

00:16:32 --> 00:16:34

may be different but there's some sort of

00:16:36 --> 00:16:37

quintessential similarity,

00:16:38 --> 00:16:40

that people start to notice between them to

00:16:40 --> 00:16:41

the point where they they can't tell them

00:16:41 --> 00:16:43

apart, in certain cases.

00:16:48 --> 00:16:49

In addition to these clear indications,

00:16:50 --> 00:16:52

of his succession, Sayna Abu Bakr Sadiq radiya

00:16:52 --> 00:16:55

wa ta'ala and who his khilafat was established

00:16:55 --> 00:16:57

by the popular bay'a and taking of the

00:16:57 --> 00:16:59

oath of allegiance of the companions

00:17:00 --> 00:17:02

with him after the passing of Nabi Akram

00:17:02 --> 00:17:03

Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:17:05 --> 00:17:07

Akram meaning most honored Nabi.

00:17:07 --> 00:17:09

Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:17:10 --> 00:17:12

According to the most authoritative version, his name

00:17:12 --> 00:17:12

was Abdullah.

00:17:13 --> 00:17:16

During the time of Jahiliyyah, his name was

00:17:16 --> 00:17:17

Abdul Kaaba.

00:17:18 --> 00:17:20

Some say his name was Atik.

00:17:20 --> 00:17:20

However,

00:17:21 --> 00:17:24

the reliable version is that Atik was his

00:17:24 --> 00:17:25

title. It was his lakab.

00:17:27 --> 00:17:29

And the Rasool Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam changed his

00:17:29 --> 00:17:32

name from Abdul Kaaba to Abdullah.

00:17:33 --> 00:17:34

His genealogical

00:17:34 --> 00:17:35

tree is as follows.

00:17:51 --> 00:17:53

The lineage of Sayid Nabu Bakr Siddiq radiAllahu

00:17:53 --> 00:17:54

anhu

00:17:54 --> 00:17:55

meets,

00:17:55 --> 00:17:57

with that of the messenger of Allah Sallallahu

00:17:57 --> 00:18:00

Alaihi Wasallam with the person of Muratub Nukab.

00:18:01 --> 00:18:03

The name of his father Abu Qohafa

00:18:03 --> 00:18:04

was Uthman,

00:18:05 --> 00:18:08

who embraced Islam in the 8th year of

00:18:08 --> 00:18:10

the nubuah of the messenger of Allah Sallallahu

00:18:10 --> 00:18:12

Alaihi Wasallam at the age of 90.

00:18:13 --> 00:18:16

Sayyid Abu Bakr Siddiq radiAllahu Anhu was known

00:18:16 --> 00:18:18

by a variety of titles.

00:18:18 --> 00:18:21

According to Sayyidha Aisha radiAllahu ta'ala Anha,

00:18:21 --> 00:18:24

while the house folk would call him Abdullah,

00:18:24 --> 00:18:26

he was generally generally known by the title

00:18:26 --> 00:18:27

of Atik.

00:18:27 --> 00:18:29

Some people say he was called Atik because

00:18:29 --> 00:18:30

of his handsomeness.

00:18:30 --> 00:18:32

Others say on the account of his

00:18:32 --> 00:18:34

eagerness for virtue, he was given the name

00:18:34 --> 00:18:36

Atik. Another view is because

00:18:37 --> 00:18:38

his lineage was,

00:18:39 --> 00:18:40

free from the slightest blemish.

00:18:41 --> 00:18:42

According to the narration of the

00:18:43 --> 00:18:44

reason,

00:18:44 --> 00:18:46

for his title of Atik was the

00:18:47 --> 00:18:50

announcement of his salvation from the * fire.

00:18:55 --> 00:18:57

Have a have a connection with them,

00:18:57 --> 00:18:59

with with one another more for,

00:19:00 --> 00:19:01

sorry,

00:19:02 --> 00:19:03

in terms of the

00:19:04 --> 00:19:07

root, the root letters of of of both

00:19:07 --> 00:19:08

words.

00:19:09 --> 00:19:11

His famous title, however, is a Siddiq.

00:19:12 --> 00:19:14

There's a difference of opinion regarding the occasion,

00:19:16 --> 00:19:18

in which he was rewarded or awarded this

00:19:18 --> 00:19:20

title. So Siddiq is a

00:19:22 --> 00:19:24

the person who is innervently in through and

00:19:24 --> 00:19:25

through inside out

00:19:29 --> 00:19:29

true.

00:19:30 --> 00:19:32

True in every every

00:19:34 --> 00:19:36

sense of the word. Is the true faith

00:19:36 --> 00:19:37

the one,

00:19:37 --> 00:19:38

the one who

00:19:39 --> 00:19:42

carries the emphatic state of veracity.

00:19:45 --> 00:19:47

According to some, he was known by this

00:19:47 --> 00:19:49

blessed title even during the days of Jahiliyyah

00:19:49 --> 00:19:52

because of his outstanding qualities of truthfulness.

00:19:52 --> 00:19:54

However, the well known version is that on

00:19:54 --> 00:19:56

the occasion of the Mi'raj when the Rasool

00:19:56 --> 00:19:59

Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ascended to heaven, the messenger

00:19:59 --> 00:20:02

of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam was apprehensive about

00:20:02 --> 00:20:04

people acknowledging the truth of this miraculous journey.

00:20:07 --> 00:20:07

Jibril,

00:20:08 --> 00:20:10

alaihi salam assured the messenger of Allah sallallahu

00:20:10 --> 00:20:13

alaihi wa sallam that Abu Bakr will acknowledge

00:20:13 --> 00:20:15

its truth because he is, the siddiq.

00:20:17 --> 00:20:18

In the

00:20:25 --> 00:20:27

in a work. I don't know some of

00:20:27 --> 00:20:29

these translations sometimes the transliterations

00:20:29 --> 00:20:31

are so garble it's difficult to tell what

00:20:31 --> 00:20:31

he what the,

00:20:33 --> 00:20:35

what book is being quoted. But in one

00:20:35 --> 00:20:36

of the books about the Khalafat

00:20:37 --> 00:20:37

recorded

00:20:38 --> 00:20:41

the the narration of the mosthadrak of Imam

00:20:41 --> 00:20:41

Hakim

00:20:42 --> 00:20:42

in which,

00:20:43 --> 00:20:44

Nizal bin Sabra said,

00:20:45 --> 00:20:48

we asked Ali radiAllahu anhu regarding Abu Bakr

00:20:48 --> 00:20:49

Siddiq radiAllahu anhu.

00:20:49 --> 00:20:51

He said he is a man,

00:20:51 --> 00:20:53

who was given the title of Siddiq by

00:20:53 --> 00:20:56

Allah via the agency of Sayyidina Jibril alayhislam

00:20:56 --> 00:20:59

and the messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wasalam.

00:21:00 --> 00:21:02

In salat, he was a representative of the

00:21:02 --> 00:21:04

messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi Meaning he was

00:21:04 --> 00:21:06

the one that everybody knew that when the

00:21:06 --> 00:21:07

messenger of Allah

00:21:08 --> 00:21:09

was unable

00:21:09 --> 00:21:11

to lead the prayer, he was the one

00:21:11 --> 00:21:13

who was deputed for it.

00:21:14 --> 00:21:15

The man who the Rasulullah

00:21:15 --> 00:21:18

alaihi wasallam would choose for our Deen,

00:21:18 --> 00:21:20

we chose him, for our duniya, meaning for

00:21:20 --> 00:21:21

the khilafa.

00:21:22 --> 00:21:26

According to Tabarani, Hakim bin Saad narrated that

00:21:26 --> 00:21:28

Sayna Ali radiAllahu an who took thee

00:21:29 --> 00:21:31

took an oath that the title siddiq was

00:21:31 --> 00:21:32

revealed,

00:21:32 --> 00:21:33

by Allah,

00:21:34 --> 00:21:34

from the heavens,

00:21:35 --> 00:21:36

for Abu Bakr,

00:21:37 --> 00:21:38

which itself is a great honor.

00:21:40 --> 00:21:41

Abu Bakr's acceptance of Islam.

00:21:42 --> 00:21:44

Amongst the first persons to accept Islam was

00:21:44 --> 00:21:46

Abu Bakr Siddiq, may Allah TA be pleased

00:21:46 --> 00:21:49

with him. When he presented himself to the

00:21:49 --> 00:21:53

Nabi Akram Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam for accepting Islam,

00:21:53 --> 00:21:55

he did not request for any miracle to

00:21:55 --> 00:21:55

be displayed.

00:21:56 --> 00:21:58

He only asked about the prophet, so prophet

00:21:58 --> 00:22:01

sallallahu alaihi wa sallam's prophethood and immediately accepted

00:22:01 --> 00:22:01

Islam.

00:22:02 --> 00:22:04

According to the Nabi Akram sallallahu alaihi wa

00:22:04 --> 00:22:07

sallam, he had discerned a degree of uncertainty

00:22:07 --> 00:22:10

in everyone who he had presented Islam to,

00:22:10 --> 00:22:12

save Abu Bakr who accepted Islam without the

00:22:12 --> 00:22:13

slightest of hesitation.

00:22:15 --> 00:22:18

In the inceptional stage of Islam, the Sahaba

00:22:18 --> 00:22:19

Kiram radhiallahu ta'ala Anhum

00:22:20 --> 00:22:22

concealed their deen because of the oppression and

00:22:22 --> 00:22:24

the persecution of the kuffar.

00:22:24 --> 00:22:27

When the number of Muslims numbered 39,

00:22:28 --> 00:22:31

Abu Bakr Siddiq radhiyallahu anhu requested permission to

00:22:31 --> 00:22:32

propagate Islam publicly.

00:22:33 --> 00:22:36

After persisting with his request, the most honored

00:22:36 --> 00:22:38

prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam consented.

00:22:39 --> 00:22:41

Taking a small group with him, said Abu

00:22:41 --> 00:22:43

Bakr Siddiq radiallahu an who went to the

00:22:43 --> 00:22:45

house of Allah, to the Kaaba, and delivered

00:22:45 --> 00:22:46

a Khutba.

00:22:46 --> 00:22:48

This was the very first Khutba in Islam.

00:22:48 --> 00:22:49

Although his prominence

00:22:50 --> 00:22:52

and honor were accepted in the community,

00:22:52 --> 00:22:54

as he commenced his Khutba he was so

00:22:54 --> 00:22:57

severely assaulted that his face was dyed red

00:22:57 --> 00:22:58

with his blood.

00:22:59 --> 00:23:01

His nose, ears, etcetera were badly wounded.

00:23:02 --> 00:23:04

It was difficult to recognize him. He was

00:23:04 --> 00:23:06

beaten, pushed and kicked.

00:23:06 --> 00:23:08

They did with him whatever they had desired.

00:23:08 --> 00:23:11

The severity of the assault rendered him unconscious.

00:23:12 --> 00:23:13

His tribesmen brought him home,

00:23:14 --> 00:23:15

where he,

00:23:15 --> 00:23:17

revived during the evening. He came back to

00:23:17 --> 00:23:19

consciousness that evening.

00:23:19 --> 00:23:21

The first words that came from his lips

00:23:21 --> 00:23:24

was how how is Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:23:24 --> 00:23:26

On hearing these words, those who were caring

00:23:26 --> 00:23:29

for him left. They were astonished and angered

00:23:29 --> 00:23:30

because of his devotion for a man who

00:23:30 --> 00:23:33

was indirectly the cause for the calamity which

00:23:33 --> 00:23:34

he had suffered,

00:23:34 --> 00:23:36

his non Muslim relatives.

00:23:36 --> 00:23:39

His mother, Umkhair, insisted that he partake of

00:23:39 --> 00:23:40

some food and drink, but he took an

00:23:40 --> 00:23:42

oath that as long as he had not

00:23:42 --> 00:23:44

seen the messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam,

00:23:44 --> 00:23:46

he would neither eat nor drink.

00:23:55 --> 00:23:57

After the greater part of the night had

00:23:57 --> 00:23:58

passed and all was quiet,

00:24:00 --> 00:24:02

he went to Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam and

00:24:02 --> 00:24:03

cried profusely,

00:24:04 --> 00:24:06

and so did the Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:24:07 --> 00:24:10

The Sahaba radiallahu anhu too broke down with

00:24:10 --> 00:24:11

grief and were in tears.

00:24:13 --> 00:24:16

In this meeting Abu Bakr Siddiq radiallahu anhu

00:24:16 --> 00:24:18

requested that Rasulullah

00:24:20 --> 00:24:22

make dua for the guidance of his mother.

00:24:22 --> 00:24:25

The dua was made and she embraced Islam

00:24:25 --> 00:24:25

the very same day.

00:24:31 --> 00:24:32

So you see, Masha'allah,

00:24:33 --> 00:24:34

people who,

00:24:34 --> 00:24:35

whatever, like to quote

00:24:37 --> 00:24:39

like to quote Rumi quotes, you know, fake

00:24:39 --> 00:24:41

Rumi quotes on on Facebook or whatever with

00:24:41 --> 00:24:42

weird memes of

00:24:43 --> 00:24:45

god knows what butterflies and unicorns or whatever

00:24:45 --> 00:24:46

in the background.

00:24:48 --> 00:24:50

Even the real Rumi quotes that have full,

00:24:52 --> 00:24:54

that that are have full authenticity

00:24:56 --> 00:24:58

and are accompanied with their Persian original.

00:24:59 --> 00:25:02

Where did the mashaikh later learn how to

00:25:02 --> 00:25:03

show love?

00:25:04 --> 00:25:06

They didn't learn from anywhere else except for

00:25:06 --> 00:25:08

the Rasul, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam and his

00:25:08 --> 00:25:11

Mubarak companions radiallahu ta'ala anhu.

00:25:11 --> 00:25:14

And so you know, masha'Allah Maulana Rumi himself

00:25:14 --> 00:25:17

uh-uh was a descendant of Sayna Abu Bakr

00:25:17 --> 00:25:17

Siddiq.

00:25:20 --> 00:25:22

A separate volume is required

00:25:22 --> 00:25:24

to record the life story of Said Abu

00:25:24 --> 00:25:27

Bakr Siddiq, the Siddiq Akbar, the greatest of

00:25:27 --> 00:25:30

the saints and the true faith ones. Irrespective

00:25:30 --> 00:25:32

of the brevity of the biography one wishes

00:25:32 --> 00:25:32

to write,

00:25:33 --> 00:25:35

how then is it possible to write comprehensively

00:25:35 --> 00:25:37

on even one aspect in these few pages?

00:25:37 --> 00:25:39

The fact of him being the 1st to

00:25:39 --> 00:25:41

accept Islam is of the greatest,

00:25:41 --> 00:25:42

significance.

00:25:42 --> 00:25:45

This act of his requires considerable elaboration.

00:25:47 --> 00:25:49

Then there's the episode of his comp contemplated

00:25:50 --> 00:25:51

migration to Abyssinia.

00:25:51 --> 00:25:54

He set out with this intention but was

00:25:55 --> 00:25:56

met along the way by Ibn Durunah

00:25:57 --> 00:25:57

who

00:25:58 --> 00:26:00

persuaded him to return.

00:26:00 --> 00:26:02

He said a man of your caliber can

00:26:02 --> 00:26:04

neither be expelled nor leave of his own

00:26:04 --> 00:26:04

accord.

00:26:05 --> 00:26:06

You are the source of livelihood of the

00:26:06 --> 00:26:07

destitute,

00:26:07 --> 00:26:10

meaning you're the one who gives to the

00:26:10 --> 00:26:10

poor.

00:26:11 --> 00:26:11

You are

00:26:12 --> 00:26:14

kind to family members, you lift the burden

00:26:14 --> 00:26:16

of people, you are hospitable and you aid

00:26:16 --> 00:26:17

others in in their affairs

00:26:18 --> 00:26:21

And, this is one thing, you know, we

00:26:21 --> 00:26:23

mentioned it in one of the previous,

00:26:25 --> 00:26:26

in one of the previous majalis

00:26:27 --> 00:26:28

that,

00:26:30 --> 00:26:31

this hawan

00:26:32 --> 00:26:33

this

00:26:34 --> 00:26:36

hawan, this lack of respect that

00:26:38 --> 00:26:41

that those people who are currently deprived from,

00:26:42 --> 00:26:42

connection

00:26:43 --> 00:26:44

with the higher realm

00:26:45 --> 00:26:46

Treat the and

00:26:47 --> 00:26:49

the the people of nobility with.

00:26:49 --> 00:26:50

That they're

00:26:51 --> 00:26:53

the types of people that

00:26:53 --> 00:26:55

you know, they're only concerned with their own,

00:26:55 --> 00:26:57

like, rat race type of

00:26:58 --> 00:26:58

concerns.

00:26:59 --> 00:27:01

And so a person of great spiritual grace

00:27:01 --> 00:27:03

might come past them

00:27:03 --> 00:27:05

and they don't see any value in that

00:27:05 --> 00:27:08

person. In fact, they often times when their

00:27:08 --> 00:27:09

attention is brought to that

00:27:10 --> 00:27:11

that reality they get annoyed.

00:27:12 --> 00:27:14

They're like a person who,

00:27:15 --> 00:27:17

you know, finds a

00:27:20 --> 00:27:22

finds a, like a like a $100,000

00:27:22 --> 00:27:23

Rolex,

00:27:24 --> 00:27:27

somewhere and then takes it to the pawnshop

00:27:27 --> 00:27:28

and the pawnshop,

00:27:29 --> 00:27:31

you know, he says, okay, well we we

00:27:31 --> 00:27:32

give you a $100 for it. The owner

00:27:32 --> 00:27:34

of the pawnshop says, look let's go across

00:27:34 --> 00:27:37

the street to the, you know, to the

00:27:37 --> 00:27:39

Rolex shop and they'll appraise that it may

00:27:39 --> 00:27:41

be worth even more. And

00:27:41 --> 00:27:44

this person is so stingy and so

00:27:44 --> 00:27:46

closed minded. He says stop wasting my time.

00:27:46 --> 00:27:47

Are you gonna give me the 100 or

00:27:47 --> 00:27:49

not? Because if you're not, then like,

00:27:50 --> 00:27:52

you know, he tells them off. Why? Because

00:27:52 --> 00:27:54

he doesn't understand the the value of what's

00:27:54 --> 00:27:56

there. So if you're doing something good and

00:27:56 --> 00:27:58

other people treat you like garbage,

00:27:58 --> 00:27:59

that's

00:27:59 --> 00:28:02

not anything wrong with you. That's their own

00:28:02 --> 00:28:05

deprivation that their supply of noor from the

00:28:05 --> 00:28:07

higher realm has been cut off. Don't worry

00:28:07 --> 00:28:09

about it. Go about your business.

00:28:09 --> 00:28:11

And know that everyone, people better than you

00:28:11 --> 00:28:13

and people better than me, have been treated

00:28:13 --> 00:28:16

this way before. The Sayyid Nabu Bakr Siddiq

00:28:16 --> 00:28:19

his own tribesmen, they withdrew tribal protection to

00:28:19 --> 00:28:20

the point where

00:28:20 --> 00:28:22

he was one of the most noble and

00:28:22 --> 00:28:23

beloved people of Quraysh

00:28:24 --> 00:28:24

and,

00:28:25 --> 00:28:27

his tribe withdrew protection from him

00:28:28 --> 00:28:30

to the point where he was basically,

00:28:30 --> 00:28:32

being taken to pot shots at open season

00:28:32 --> 00:28:33

in Makkumukarama

00:28:33 --> 00:28:34

and he had to,

00:28:35 --> 00:28:37

you know, make the intention to leave. And

00:28:37 --> 00:28:39

a foreigner, a person from another tribe

00:28:40 --> 00:28:42

who knew Sayyid Nabu Bakr Siddiq

00:28:43 --> 00:28:45

who himself was not even a Muslim at

00:28:45 --> 00:28:45

this time,

00:28:46 --> 00:28:49

he himself had to recognize that what's what

00:28:49 --> 00:28:50

is this craziness? Like, this is, like, the

00:28:50 --> 00:28:53

best person I know. How could you, how

00:28:53 --> 00:28:55

could you do something about him? And he

00:28:55 --> 00:28:56

announced in front of the,

00:28:57 --> 00:28:58

the people,

00:28:58 --> 00:28:59

in the Kaaba

00:28:59 --> 00:29:02

that, I take him under my protection and

00:29:02 --> 00:29:02

whoever

00:29:03 --> 00:29:05

messes with him, he messes with my tribe.

00:29:05 --> 00:29:08

And, it's a kind gesture. It's a kind

00:29:08 --> 00:29:08

gesture

00:29:08 --> 00:29:09

for sure.

00:29:10 --> 00:29:12

However, the truth of the matter was

00:29:12 --> 00:29:15

that, you know, from the moment that Allah

00:29:15 --> 00:29:15

decreed,

00:29:17 --> 00:29:19

before he created the heavens and the earth

00:29:19 --> 00:29:20

and his,

00:29:22 --> 00:29:23

in his primordial

00:29:24 --> 00:29:27

and his primordially preexistent knowledge

00:29:27 --> 00:29:28

that,

00:29:28 --> 00:29:31

that this this one would be the

00:29:32 --> 00:29:34

the the companion and the beloved of the

00:29:34 --> 00:29:36

messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. He

00:29:36 --> 00:29:38

had a protection greater than that of any

00:29:38 --> 00:29:39

of the tribes of the Arabs.

00:29:40 --> 00:29:40

And,

00:29:41 --> 00:29:43

whoever sees it sees it. Whoever is blind

00:29:43 --> 00:29:44

to it will be blind to it. A

00:29:44 --> 00:29:46

day will come, Allah, that will show everybody.

00:29:46 --> 00:29:47

Until then, if a person

00:29:48 --> 00:29:50

has something great, you don't need to show

00:29:50 --> 00:29:51

off to the creation. Just go about your

00:29:51 --> 00:29:54

business and don't let your feelings get hurt

00:29:54 --> 00:29:56

when there are some blind people who are

00:29:57 --> 00:29:59

unable to, appreciate that.

00:30:00 --> 00:30:03

Referring to sayin Abu Bakr Siddiq radiAllahu on

00:30:03 --> 00:30:04

whom the Quran says.

00:30:04 --> 00:30:06

He was the second of 2 Thani ath

00:30:06 --> 00:30:08

Nani idhuma Filghaar.

00:30:09 --> 00:30:10

The second of 2 when they were in

00:30:10 --> 00:30:11

the cave

00:30:14 --> 00:30:15

when he said to his companions,

00:30:16 --> 00:30:18

do not grieve. Indeed, Allah is with us.

00:30:19 --> 00:30:21

The companionship of Abu Bakr Siddiq radiallahu anhu

00:30:21 --> 00:30:23

with the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa

00:30:23 --> 00:30:24

sallam is confirmed

00:30:24 --> 00:30:26

absolutely by this ayah of the Quran.

00:30:27 --> 00:30:29

Every word of this Quranic statement attests to

00:30:29 --> 00:30:32

the lofty status of Abu Bakr Siddiq radiallahu

00:30:32 --> 00:30:34

anhu. There are numerous conspicuous

00:30:34 --> 00:30:35

evidences

00:30:36 --> 00:30:38

confirming his love and devotion for the Messenger

00:30:38 --> 00:30:39

of Allah salallahu alayhi wasalam.

00:30:40 --> 00:30:41

His migration to Madinatayiba

00:30:42 --> 00:30:43

and the company of the Messenger of Allah

00:30:44 --> 00:30:45

salallahu alayhi wa sallam is very significant.

00:30:47 --> 00:30:49

What then can one say and write about

00:30:49 --> 00:30:50

his excellences?

00:30:50 --> 00:30:53

In Suratul Layl are the praises of the

00:30:53 --> 00:30:54

one who spend in the path of Allah

00:30:54 --> 00:30:55

ta'ala.

00:31:09 --> 00:31:12

That he's described as being that nobody has

00:31:12 --> 00:31:14

any Ni'mah or blessing

00:31:14 --> 00:31:16

that will ever be sufficient

00:31:16 --> 00:31:17

for him

00:31:17 --> 00:31:19

uh-uh as a recompense

00:31:19 --> 00:31:20

except for the

00:31:21 --> 00:31:23

the seeking of Allah Ta'ala's pleasure.

00:31:24 --> 00:31:24

And

00:31:25 --> 00:31:27

the day that he gets it, he'll be

00:31:27 --> 00:31:28

that's the day he'll be pleased.

00:31:29 --> 00:31:31

And he's given the glad tidings, and the

00:31:31 --> 00:31:33

happiness and the glad tidings of Jannah.

00:31:34 --> 00:31:35

So InshaAllah

00:31:36 --> 00:31:36

being

00:31:37 --> 00:31:39

being at about the half an hour mark,

00:31:39 --> 00:31:41

I think this is a good place to

00:31:41 --> 00:31:43

leave off inshaAllah for tomorrow.

00:31:44 --> 00:31:46

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala give us stulfiq to

00:31:46 --> 00:31:47

make good use of the rest of this

00:31:47 --> 00:31:49

Friday and the rest of this Ramadan

00:31:49 --> 00:31:51

and the rest of this life, the couple

00:31:51 --> 00:31:53

of breaths that we have left. May Allah

00:31:53 --> 00:31:54

subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:31:58 --> 00:32:00

forgive us our shortcomings and overlook our faults

00:32:01 --> 00:32:04

and, even even those good deeds that

00:32:04 --> 00:32:06

we were supposed to do beautifully that we

00:32:06 --> 00:32:08

kind of did a,

00:32:08 --> 00:32:09

slack job on.

00:32:10 --> 00:32:12

Allah, Ta'ala, forgive us and overlook those faults

00:32:13 --> 00:32:15

and give us as if we did what

00:32:15 --> 00:32:17

we were supposed to do the way we

00:32:17 --> 00:32:18

were supposed to do it and not how

00:32:18 --> 00:32:19

we did it.

00:32:19 --> 00:32:21

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala liked this all the

00:32:21 --> 00:32:23

days of our life. May Allah Subhanahu Wa

00:32:23 --> 00:32:24

Ta'ala show up

00:32:24 --> 00:32:27

whatever shortfall we have in our accounts by

00:32:27 --> 00:32:28

the barakah of almarumaaman

00:32:29 --> 00:32:31

haba, by the barakah of the statement of

00:32:31 --> 00:32:33

the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam that a

00:32:33 --> 00:32:34

person will be with the one that that

00:32:34 --> 00:32:35

he loves.

00:32:35 --> 00:32:37

And Allah Ta'ala made it so easy because

00:32:37 --> 00:32:39

the pious and the righteous and the oliya

00:32:39 --> 00:32:40

and the Sahaba

00:32:41 --> 00:32:42

Sahaba Ikiram

00:32:43 --> 00:32:45

and the Rasool Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam and the

00:32:45 --> 00:32:47

Anbiya Ikiram Alaihi Wasallam

00:32:48 --> 00:32:50

Allah made it so easy because their people

00:32:50 --> 00:32:51

it's so they were so beautiful.

00:32:52 --> 00:32:53

It's

00:32:53 --> 00:32:55

very difficult not to love them. May Allah

00:32:55 --> 00:32:57

Subhanahu wa ta'ala dye our hearts in the

00:32:57 --> 00:33:00

color of their love and, make that, what

00:33:00 --> 00:33:02

saves us in this world and hereafter.
