00:00:25 --> 00:00:27
			We've reached this Mubarak 19th night of Ramadan.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:33
			Allah make it easy.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:34
			If the
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:37
			you know, if you've been out of it,
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:38
			now it's time to jump back in the
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:39
			game.
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:42
			No time like the present. If you've been
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:43
			in it and you're wearing thin,
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			you're getting threadbare, you're tired,
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:48
			you're sleepy,
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			perhaps a little bit irritable, maybe hostile,
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			you know, just stay in it. It's not
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55
			that much longer.
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:58
			Stay in it. It's not it's not that
		
00:00:58 --> 00:00:59
			much longer.
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02
			It's a few days and then afterward,
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:05
			when Allah's father has decreed,
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08
			the sweet and fragrant effects of it stay
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			with you for the rest of your life,
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			and then they live for with you forever
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:14
			in Jannah where there are a lot of
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			other nice and sweet and fragrant things.
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:19
			Give it to us all by his.
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			So we read today from the
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24
			entry on the conquest
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:26
			of Dumat al Jandal.
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:30
			Said Khalib bin Wudid radiahu ta'ala Anhu moved
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			from toward Dumat al Jandal in order to
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:33
			assist
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			Riad bin Granim to conquer it. While the
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:40
			prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam was alive, he had
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			sent Khaled bin Walid to do what Al
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:43
			Jandal to capture,
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			Okedar bin Abdul,
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:47
			Malik. Khad
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			who had captured him on a moonlit night
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:52
			and presented him to the messenger of Allah
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:56
			That's pretty awesome
		
00:01:57 --> 00:01:59
			to be able to nab a dude in
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:00
			the desert in his
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:01
			turf.
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			You have to be, like, real smart, real
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:06
			agile, real fit. There's, like, a lot of
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:07
			skills that come together in order to be
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:08
			able to do that.
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			That's, you know so
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:14
			you can tell from all of this that
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:14
			perhaps,
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:15
			righteousness,
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:17
			you know,
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:20
			it includes tarawi and zikr and stuff for
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:20
			sure.
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:23
			Maybe we should pick up the kettlebell a
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:25
			little bit more often as well. Jump up
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:25
			onto them plyometric
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			boxes
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:28
			and, I don't know,
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:30
			do some functional stuff because.
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:33
			Who
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:36
			captured him on a moon that night and
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			presented him before the messenger of Allah sallallahu
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:39
			alaihi wa sallam.
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:41
			The messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:42
			spared his life
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:44
			and entered into an agreement with him in
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:46
			return for jizya and then sent him back
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:47
			to his town.
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:51
			Again, you keep your stuff,
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:54
			you're exempted from one tax, you pay another
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:57
			one. For rich people, actually, the the
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:00
			jizya is far lower than what they would
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:02
			have made anyway. This has actually become a
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:03
			problem in the Ottoman Empire
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:05
			in the later period of it. The government
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:07
			wants to abolish the jizya and give a
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:10
			uniform tax code because the rich Armenian businessmen,
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:12
			like, amassed huge hoards of wealth that were
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			not subjected to tax or anything,
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:17
			and nor were there was there a column,
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19
			like, subject to any sort of, like, military,
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:20
			obligations
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:21
			or whatever.
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:23
			And so what all what is all of
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:25
			this? You know, the modern liberal mind
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:27
			other than, like, you know,
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:29
			imagining new genders by the minute,
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			and new pronouns by the minute. It will
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:33
			say, well, why why if he was such
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:35
			a great guy, why did he nab him
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:36
			and make him pay the jizya?
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:37
			Why?
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:39
			Because the order of,
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:41
			the Lord has supremacy
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:43
			more than your order of, like, if it
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:44
			feels good, do it.
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:47
			Ironically ironically, if it feels good, do it.
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:49
			System ends up making a lot of people
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:50
			feel really bad.
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:53
			So bad that they don't wanna have children
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:55
			anymore. So bad that, like, you know, crimes
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:56
			and deaths of despair
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:57
			skyrocket.
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:00
			So so bad that, like, you know, Portland
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:02
			is and Seattle are filled with
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:04
			Fentanyl addicts on the street side. I feel
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:06
			bad for them. What do they have to
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			live for? Nobody else is gonna help them
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:11
			either. At least in Republican states, they're not
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:12
			that much of a bunch of.
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:14
			They just say we don't care about you,
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:15
			like, upfront.
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:17
			Whereas they fake like they care about you
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:19
			in those places, but they don't. A person
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:20
			who, you know, like,
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:23
			there's a difference between a death of despair
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:23
			and suicide.
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			Suicide, you just, like, kill yourself. Right? Deaths
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:29
			of despair are what? People are depressed.
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:32
			They resort to, like, drug use that gets
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			progressively worse and worse even though they know
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:35
			that this is probably gonna end in their
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:36
			death.
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:39
			It pushes people to consumption patterns.
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:41
			Like, why do you think everyone in America
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			is obese? It's not like America is the
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:45
			only place in the world where food is.
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:48
			Food is available in other places. There are
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:50
			people starving in other places, but there are
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:52
			many places where this obesity epidemic is not
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:54
			there, where they have access to modern,
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:58
			you know, modern means of manufacturing food and
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:58
			whatnot.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			And, what is it? It's just people's consumption
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			patterns. This is the only thing they have
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:04
			left to live for. There's no more meaning
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:06
			left in their lives.
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:08
			So they'll either their consumption patterns will become
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:10
			more and more an elf unhealthy or for
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:12
			example, they become more and more risky, their
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:12
			behavior.
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:16
			People will say, you know, TikTok normal person
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:17
			will be like, I wanna buy a motorcycle
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:19
			or something. It's just stupid like that. Like,
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:21
			okay. If you have a motorcycle
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:23
			for some reason, go ahead. It's not haram
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:25
			or whatever. Or you really like it, you're
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:26
			really, really into it. But you have, like,
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:28
			some father who is, like, has children
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			and a family and this and that. People
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:33
			have these stupid, like, thoughts to do risky
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:35
			things, the reward of which is very little.
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:36
			What does it indicate?
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:38
			You tell them don't do this. It's not
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:39
			worth it. But them and the other side
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:41
			of the other tarazu and the other,
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:44
			scale pan of, you know, of the balance,
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:46
			there's nothing really left for them to live
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:47
			for all that much. So they go and
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:49
			do these types of behaviors,
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:51
			that are more and more risky. Why? Because
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:52
			it's just despair.
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:55
			So, yes, we're Muslims. We're proud to say
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:57
			that we don't approve of that message.
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:58
			And,
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00
			God bless the prophet
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:01
			and his companions.
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:03
			What did they do? They nabbed him. They
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:04
			could have had him for everything he had.
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:05
			They could have made
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:07
			a leather jacket out of his hide.
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:09
			But they said, listen.
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:13
			This is a Sharia. It's good for people.
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:16
			You know? The first commandments of the Sharia
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:19
			are, like, include things like wash yourself after
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:20
			using the bathroom
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23
			instead of getting into fist fights over, like,
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:24
			the last roll of toilet paper in COVID.
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:28
			It's good for you. It's a good thing.
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:29
			Once you do it, you'll like it. You
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:30
			won't go back.
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:33
			Just pay a little money. You're exempted from
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:34
			from all the rest of it if you're
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:36
			not into it, and just let this let
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:39
			this system work. Everyone will benefit.
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:41
			And what did they do after that? They
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:42
			didn't take his stuff. They just let him
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:42
			go.
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:45
			When Abu Bakr ascended
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:46
			to the caliphate,
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:51
			He sent Riyadh bin Khanam to conquer Iraq,
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:54
			starting with the upper northern regions of the
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:55
			Arabian Peninsula.
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:58
			On the outskirts of Doumat Al Jandal, a
		
00:06:58 --> 00:07:01
			a hoard of Christian Arabs rallied against him.
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:03
			So he wrote a letter to father
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:04
			for assistance.
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:07
			The letter reached him when he was at
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:10
			and he maneuvered, such that Dumatul Jandal would
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:13
			be sandwiched between him and Iyab, Jodi who
		
00:07:13 --> 00:07:15
			ruled over Dumatul Jandal
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:18
			with Orqueda went out to,
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:20
			attack
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:23
			Khaldr and also sent another squadron to
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:25
			fight Riyadh. So
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:27
			one one army is on
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:30
			one side, and I'm assuming on the west
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:32
			side and on the east side is.
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:35
			So they split their army in 2 to
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:36
			fight them both at the same time,
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:38
			including who
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:42
			had made a agreement with the prophet
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:45
			after getting nabbed on the moonlit night and
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:47
			getting to keep his jacket.
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:49
			And now look what he did.
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:52
			Both commanders were overwhelmed
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:55
			and the fortress of Dumut Al Jandal was
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:58
			opened by force with Khad Radhiwa Ta'ala Anhu
		
00:07:58 --> 00:08:00
			remaining there. As for al Qaeda, he parted
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:02
			ways ways with Judy because
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:05
			he refused to listen to him when he
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:06
			was advised not to fight Khaled.
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:09
			Khaled sent someone in his tracks to capture
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:11
			him and slay him because he had broken
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:12
			the promise he made to the messenger of
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:14
			Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam to play Jizya.
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:17
			You know, some people
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:21
			some stuff for stuffers just don't ever learn
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:22
			any. You know, they just don't wanna they
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:23
			don't learn.
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:25
			They could have done things the easy way.
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:27
			Could have been Sahabi. We would have been.
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:31
			Okay. If you didn't want to, if you
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:33
			like eating pork and drinking alcohol and like
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:35
			worshiping 3 gods that much
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:38
			or god knows how many. Right? You could
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:39
			have done it, lived and died in obscurity
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:42
			instead of having the of generation after generation
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			that you are the one who is completely
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:47
			benefit proof. There are some people that are
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:48
			like that in your lives.
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:50
			Given that none of you run a sovereign
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:51
			like polity,
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:54
			you're not really allowed to nab them on
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:55
			a moonlit night or like send the army
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:58
			after him to kill them. But, do remember
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:00
			that the hook them of that person, their
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:03
			also stays the same. So someone shows, like,
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:06
			this nastiness like this once, twice, 3 they
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:07
			they show that they're not only not getting
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:09
			the memo, but they're not interesting interested in
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:11
			it. You can make a note to self
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:13
			and just put them on the on the
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:15
			blacklist, whichever thing that allows you to do.
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:16
			Obviously, if you're not,
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:19
			again, like, if you're not, like, whatever on
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:21
			Chaco Willink's, like, email list or something like
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:23
			that, then leave those things aside for a
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:23
			second.
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:26
			But, you know, maybe it's not worth your
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:26
			time
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:28
			wasting your time with them too much.
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:32
			Hanafis.
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:34
			Hanafis f one.
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:37
			I thought I'm like, did they misspell Hanafis?
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:38
			It was Hanafis.
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:42
			The Arab of the jazeera were greatly agitated
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:44
			after the Arab of Ein al Tamar were
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:46
			killed, and they wrote to the Persian asking
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:48
			them to send help. What is the jazeera?
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:52
			The jazeera is not what they call the
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:54
			jazeera nowadays is the the Arabian Peninsula.
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:57
			That's not that's not what's usually referred to
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:58
			in the old books.
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:00
			Unless you say jazeera
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			explicitly. Right? The jazeera is a region which
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:06
			is bounded by the the the Tigris and
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:06
			the Euphrates.
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:09
			So it's as if it's an island. It's
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:10
			surrounded by 2 rivers, but it's not like
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:12
			in the ocean or anything. So it's as
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:13
			if it's an island.
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:16
			If I'm not mistaken, parts of it are
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:18
			in Turkey, parts of it in our Syria,
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:19
			and most of it is in Iraq.
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:22
			So the Jazari is the when they say
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:23
			Jazari
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:25
			in the old days, it oftentimes refers to
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:28
			that that region. Like, Diyarbakir
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:29
			in
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:32
			in Turkey is a Diar of
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:34
			Bakr. I mean, there are Arab tribes that
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:36
			live there. And there are places in the
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:37
			central,
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:40
			south central, and eastern parts of Turkey that
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:42
			are that are actually inhabited by, like, native
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:45
			Arab speakers. They're actually really traditionally part of
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:46
			Sham or part of the Jazira.
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:48
			But,
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:49
			you
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:51
			know, because of the way stuff went down
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:53
			after World War 1 or whatever, they opted
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:54
			to stay with Turkey
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:58
			rather than rather than, join join various
		
00:10:59 --> 00:10:59
			denominations
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:01
			of Arab Republic.
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:06
			So the Arabs of the jazeera were agitated.
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:08
			They wrote to Persians for help.
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:12
			2 Persian generals left for Ambar and reached,
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:16
			Hossein and Hanafis, which were near Ambar.
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:20
			Who's deputy,
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:23
			in Hera in Hera,
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:26
			heard about this and dispatched 2 detachments to
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:26
			act as a barrier between,
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:29
			Hussein and Hanafis,
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:30
			and the countryside.
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:33
			And so Kaqa is a very talented and
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:34
			able commander.
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:38
			So he tried to intercept them before they
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:40
			got to where they can came make mischief.
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:43
			A large number of Persians were killed including
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:45
			both their commanders,
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:47
			and the Muslims obtained,
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:48
			all,
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:51
			that Hussein had as a war treasure.
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:53
			The remainder,
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:55
			fled to Hanafis where,
		
00:11:57 --> 00:11:57
			Mahboudan,
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:00
			the Persian chief was stationed.
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:02
			Abu Leila went in pursuit of them until
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:03
			Mahboudan,
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:06
			went to, Musayak met Musayak Hafun,
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:09
			and there were some Arabs of the Jazira
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:10
			there. Then father
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:13
			who wrote to Kaqah and Abu Layla asking
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:15
			them to meet him at Musayah
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:18
			at a certain time, to fight the Arab
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:19
			of the jazeera.
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:20
			He
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:23
			reached Musayah with his army
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:24
			and met,
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:25
			the other 2,
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:28
			inflicting a terrible defeat on them. Khad
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:32
			then headed for Rabiya bin Bujair at Tahlabi,
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:34
			who's gathering troops,
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:35
			at Seni,
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:38
			again, attacking them by night and delivering them
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:39
			a defeat so crushing that not a single
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:41
			one of them could escape.
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:43
			The point is is what they were proactive.
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:45
			Like, once people had made their intentions clear,
		
00:12:46 --> 00:12:48
			they dealt with people before waiting for them
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:49
			to crash up on their head and, like,
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:52
			you know, you know, like, but has not
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:53
			done them to, like, death.
		
00:12:54 --> 00:12:55
			They they
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:57
			once people made their intentions clear what it
		
00:12:57 --> 00:12:59
			is that they want to do, they dealt
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:01
			with them, in a in a proactive way.
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:05
			Khaled bin Walid radiya ala ta'ala who continued
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:07
			to Firad, which was on the borders of
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:09
			Sham, Iraq, and the Jazira.
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:12
			The heat was intense,
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:15
			as it was the month of Ramadan in
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:16
			12th year of Hijri,
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:18
			and the Muslims
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:21
			broke their fast there. So there you go,
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:22
			Masha'Allah.
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:24
			The army went out in the path of
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:26
			Allah Ta'ala and,
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:29
			you know, they were fasting, although they're not
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:31
			not required to. Oftentimes, what happens is the
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:32
			commanders would say, like, you don't have to
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:34
			fast if you don't want to and people
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:35
			just elect to fast, Then he would chastise
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:37
			them and then they would be like, well,
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:38
			did you break your fast? And you say
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:40
			no. And that's kinda how that is. That's
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:42
			the thing that happens to this day.
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:44
			Or sometimes the army goes out and there's
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:45
			nothing to eat.
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:47
			This is one of the things, Alana Khalid
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:49
			Sheikh Amin, one of his he
		
00:13:51 --> 00:13:53
			mentioned he says, like, the the
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:56
			Athaar document everything to such a great amount
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:58
			of detail. Like, they don't leave things out.
		
00:13:58 --> 00:13:59
			So one of the bizarre things is that
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:00
			you never see
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:05
			any talk about how the the arrangement for
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:05
			food
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:07
			was for the armies,
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:10
			indicating that most of the people would bring
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:11
			their provisions with them from home.
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:15
			There is I can remember the hadith about
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:17
			the the hoot the hoot
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:19
			that they had, like they were given a
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:20
			sack of dates,
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:22
			and that's basically it.
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:24
			But, like, you know, they would bring stuff
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:25
			with them from home, and they would, go
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:26
			out in the path of Allah on their
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:29
			own spending. Literally, like the Quran says, expending
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:29
			their own
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:31
			mal and their own nafs.
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:33
			But at any rate, so they you know,
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:36
			this happened often also that they fasted because
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:37
			really there's nothing to eat anyway.
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:41
			A huge assembly of Persians, Romans, and Arab
		
00:14:41 --> 00:14:43
			had gathered, to take on the Muslims, and
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:45
			they crossed the Euphrates to face
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:48
			They put up a severe fight but were
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:49
			defeated.
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:51
			They are Satan's party and the party of
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:53
			Satan certainly are bound to lose.
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:55
			Right?
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:58
			Right? We read it in Tawawi,
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:01
			Justice Night. Khad
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:04
			then issued a command to return to Hila
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:07
			while he remained behind, to be at the
		
00:15:07 --> 00:15:08
			back of the army. It is said that
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:09
			he had,
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:10
			went to perform
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:14
			the Hajj and then rejoined the the the
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:15
			rear of the army,
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:17
			before they could make it back to Hara.
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:19
			Although some of the historians say that this
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:21
			is far fetched because the extreme distance is
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:22
			involved.
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:23
			Allah knows
		
00:15:24 --> 00:15:25
			best. Khad
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:28
			is sent to Sham. It's at this time
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:28
			that Abu Bakr
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:31
			directed
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:33
			Khad away from the war in Iraq
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:36
			and to Sham in order to assist the
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:37
			Muslim armies over there.
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:40
			Instead, he had appointed Muthanna bin Harith al
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:41
			Sheibani
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:43
			over the army in Iraq.
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:45
			Muthanna had
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:47
			stayed in Hilla,
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:50
			and laid down arms and sent out spies.
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:51
			After Khalid
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:54
			whose departure from Shahar Baraz,
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:58
			departure of Afon, Shahar Baraz bin Azdashir had
		
00:15:58 --> 00:16:01
			ascended to the Persian throne. He dispatched a
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:04
			huge army toward Muthunna under the command of
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:05
			the general Hormuz,
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:07
			Babil,
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:08
			Babylon.
		
00:16:09 --> 00:16:11
			Muthanna let Hera
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:13
			Hera Afon, not Hera. Hera is the cave
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:16
			in Makkumukhara. Hera is the the
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:18
			the the castle and the fortification of the
		
00:16:18 --> 00:16:21
			Persianized Arabs. Muthana left Hera and headed toward
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:22
			the army of Hormuzentel.
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:25
			He reached Babel,
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:27
			an old city, to the west of the
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:28
			Euphrates River.
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:31
			The the guys at the our local kebab
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:33
			Iraqi kebab store are from Babel.
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:37
			I asked I asked Moana
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:40
			where is the where, you know,
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:41
			where is,
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:43
			Babylon?
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:45
			No. So I asked where Akkad is and
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:47
			he his theory is that Akkad is under
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:48
			the modern city above that.
		
00:16:49 --> 00:16:50
			So
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:51
			anyway,
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:52
			so the the
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:56
			they went to meet at Babil,
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:00
			and he stationed himself there. It's here that
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:02
			Hummus and the Persian army faced him. The
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:05
			Muslim army fought an intense battle against Hummus
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:06
			until he was defeated.
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:09
			Shahrbaraz, the king of Persia, died after this
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:11
			defeat, and many internal conflicts broke out,
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:15
			in the Persian Empire, which preoccupied them and
		
00:17:15 --> 00:17:17
			stopped them from thinking about the Muslims.
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:19
			So they knocked them so hard that it
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:22
			the the the beat traveled through time and
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:24
			space and, like, literally killed the king.
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:27
			Meanwhile, these things happen, by the way. I'm
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:29
			not siding. I don't know. Maybe it did
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:30
			happen, maybe it didn't, but these things do
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:31
			happen. I wouldn't be surprised
		
00:17:32 --> 00:17:33
			if something happened because there ain't no Persian
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:34
			empire no more.
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:35
			Meanwhile,
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:37
			the news from Abu Bakr
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:38
			who was slow to reach.
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:41
			So he had appointed the Bashir
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:44
			bin Khasasiya over his army and headed to
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:47
			Medina in order to obtain permission, from Abu
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:48
			Bakr
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:51
			to start enlisting those apostates who had sincerely
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:52
			repented
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:55
			because they were on the cusp of something
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:57
			big. They needed they needed some backup. On
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:59
			reaching Medina Munawarra, he found Abu Bakr
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:02
			ill. He summoned,
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:04
			Umar ibn Khattab and said to him,
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:07
			I have a feeling that I'm going to
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:07
			die today.
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:10
			If I pass away,
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:13
			do not take a single step without sending
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:14
			men with mufanna.
		
00:18:15 --> 00:18:17
			Let no difficulty prevent you from fulfilling the
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:18
			demands of Islam
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:21
			and the order of your lord. I remember
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:22
			what I did at the time of the
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:24
			passing of the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:28
			wa sallam despite the people never having been
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:30
			afflicted by such a great calamity. If Allah
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:33
			gives victory over the people of Sham,
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:34
			return,
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:36
			the people of Iraq to their country
		
00:18:36 --> 00:18:39
			because they are its inhabitants and its rulers,
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:41
			and they have power over the people.
		
00:18:41 --> 00:18:43
			This was as far as things went, in
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:46
			Persia during the reign of Abu Bakr as
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:46
			Siddir.
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:49
			The reach of Persian power had diminished in
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:50
			all of the fertile lands to the west
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:52
			of the Euphrates River known as Reef and
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:55
			Iraq, and the boundary of the empire was
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:56
			now at that river.
		
00:18:57 --> 00:18:57
			So
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:00
			tomorrow we can read a little bit about,
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:03
			the engagement of the companions
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:06
			with the Romans.
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:08
			Allah
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:11
			give help to the
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:12
			the prophet
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:16
			People now are arguing about
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:17
			stupid things.
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:19
			I don't care if they get a rainbow
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:20
			bright purple,
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:22
			rainbow sprinkle
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:24
			flavored heifer that brings,
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:28
			you know, Haman and Firaun and and Dajjal
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:30
			and, like, their best friend Bob with them
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:32
			back. They're killing children in front of you
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:35
			on TV already. What more calamity do you
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:37
			need to know? People should firm up their
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:39
			resolve and see the score. And, you know,
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:41
			if you can't be there to do something
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:43
			directly, at least from here, do what you
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:44
			can, say what you can.
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:46
			There are a lot of people who are
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:48
			can help you with that, including myself if
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:50
			you need some ideas. But you can start
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:52
			by, you know, at least altering your your
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:55
			your consumption patterns when it comes to buying
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:56
			things and selling things and what you let
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:57
			into your ears and into your
		
00:19:58 --> 00:19:59
			eyes. Allah
		
00:19:59 --> 00:20:02
			give us all that we don't fill our
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:04
			hearts with to the point that we're numb
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:06
			to these things. The children were asking, is
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:07
			it true that they're gonna slaughter
		
00:20:08 --> 00:20:09
			a a red cow and then the jaw
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:11
			is gonna come? I go, I don't know.
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:12
			Maybe, maybe not. I don't know.
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:14
			But I'll tell you one thing. A, there's
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:16
			you know, it's not something for sure. You
		
00:20:16 --> 00:20:17
			can't do something that forces
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:20
			the, the father to happen in a particular
		
00:20:20 --> 00:20:23
			way. And, b, the punishment Allah gives to
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:24
			people who are ignorant
		
00:20:25 --> 00:20:27
			and who remain deliberately ignorant of the deen
		
00:20:27 --> 00:20:29
			is that they will fear everything.
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:31
			And the reward Allah gives a person who
		
00:20:31 --> 00:20:33
			takes out the time to understand this deen
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:35
			is you'll fear nothing but Allah.
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:37
			And the fear of Allah ta'ala is different
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:39
			than other fears. Just like Allah is different
		
00:20:39 --> 00:20:41
			than all of his creation, the difference of
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:43
			Allah the fear of Allah is different fear.
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:45
			It's it's sweet.
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:48
			There's a sweetness in it. That the more
		
00:20:48 --> 00:20:51
			someone fears Allah, the more Allah loves them.
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:54
			Whereas every other fear is completely bitter. It's
		
00:20:54 --> 00:20:56
			just a spiral, a a downward spiral. You
		
00:20:56 --> 00:20:58
			get deeper and deeper and deeper in it
		
00:20:58 --> 00:21:00
			and it just becomes more and more bitter.
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:02
			May Allah make us from those who fear
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:05
			Allah fear nothing but him and save us
		
00:21:05 --> 00:21:07
			from such a curse of ignorance that makes
		
00:21:07 --> 00:21:08
			us afraid of everything.
