Today we continue,
our Ramadan
late night majlis
with, a second reading
from
the
May Allah
have mercy on him and increase his rank.
The heirs of the prophets, a
commentary on the hadith of Abu Darda, which
we
read last time.
And it bears reading again. We can read
the English
translation of it again so that a person
can familiarize themselves with it because
repetition,
makes things firm inside the heart.
A man came to Abu Darda while he
was in Damascus.
Abu Darda asked him, what has brought you
here, my brother?
He replied, a hadith which you relate from
the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
Abu Darda asked him, have you come for
some worldly need? He replied,
no. Have you come for business? He replied,
no.
Have you come only to seek this hadith?
He said, yes.
Abu Darda radiallahu anhu then said, I heard
the messenger of Allah sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam say,
whoever travels a path seeking sacred knowledge, meaning
seeking
knowledge, seeking eilm in the original Arabic.
Allah will place him on a path leading
to paradise.
The angels lower their wings for the student
of knowledge, pleased with what he is doing.
The creatures in the heavens and earth see
forgiveness for this student of knowledge. The creatures
in the heavens and earth seek forgiveness for
the student of knowledge,
even the fish in the water.
The superiority of the religious scholar
over the devout worshiper is like the superiority
of the full moon over the other heavenly
bodies.
The scholars are the heirs of the prophets.
The prophets leave behind no gold nor silver
as a bequest.
Rather, they leave behind knowledge, and whoever seizes
it has taken a bountiful share.
Narrated by Imam Ahmad and Abu Dawud and
Tirmidi and Ibnu Majab.
So we continue from,
the beginning of
Ibn Rajab's
commentary.
He says a striking example of this sort
of journey is what Allah relates in the
Quran about Musa
with his young companion.
If there ever existed a person who needed
not to travel to seek knowledge, it was
said that Musa
for Allah had spoken to him and given
him the Torah in which all divine principles
had been revealed.
Still, when Allah informed him of a man
named Khidr who had been favored with knowledge,
Musa alaihis salam inquired about meeting him and
then set out with his young companion to
find this as Allah the exalted had said.
And behold, Moses said to his young companion,
I will not cease until I reach where
the 2 seas meet, or I shall spend
an exceptionally long time traveling.
So this is
a story related in,
in, Surat Surat Al Kahf, which hopefully everyone
read today because,
you know, it's a protection. It's recitation on
is a protection from fitna, from torment and
tribulation,
in which,
there are is no shortage
in this age, in the era, in the
days we're living in. There's no shortage of
those things. And it's also protection from the
the fitna and the tribulation of the dajjal.
Allah protect us, and it seems that every
day brings us closer and closer to
to his
manifestation
amongst the creation. May Allah protect us.
So this young man who
traveled with, Sayidina Musa, alayhis salam, the Mufasirun
said, Yusha bin Noon,
the Nabi,
Joshua,
who was the Khalifa of Sayidimusa Alaihi Salam
in Banu
Israel and,
who,
was from amongst the people, in Banu Israel,
the few people who didn't,
disobey Allah's commands
at a number of pertinent places. Insha'Allah, you
can read the tafsir of Surah Al Baqarah,
Insha'Allah, for more details. Surah Al Ma'ida.
So he says that, and behold, Moses said
to his young companion, I will not cease
until I reach where the 2 seas meet,
or I shall spend an exceptionally long time
traveling.
Allah then informs us that upon
Musa asked of him, may I follow you
in order that you may teach me of
the knowledge you have been given?
Details of their venture are related in the
book of Allah and the well known hadith
of Ubay bin Kaab, which is related by
Bukhari and Muslim.
Ibn Umas'ud
used to say,
I swear to Allah or I swear by
Allah besides whom there is no other
deity worthy of worship. No chapter of the
Quran has been revealed except for I know
where it was revealed.
No verse of the book of Allah has
been revealed except for I know why it
was revealed. Yet if I knew of anyone
more learned than me in the book of
Allah, I would make every effort to reach
him.
So you see this beautiful quality is there
in Abdullah ibn Mas'ud
and
he,
he informs the people of it. This is
a quality that he obviously picked
from
the values of the Quran and from the
instruction of the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam.
Abu Darda radiallahu anhu said,
If I were unable to explain a verse
in the book of Allah and could not
find anyone to explain it to me except
for a man in Barkal HImad, I would
journey to him.
Barkal HImad is the furthest corner of Yemen.
Masruk, who was a a great, sheikh of
the, Tabi'in.
Masruk literally means stolen.
And just so you know,
he received this nickname because he stole something
as a kid.
So, you know, if you're not a 100%
perfect,
you still there's still time to make up
and and and be a good person,
because the perfected ones, all of them started
from somewhere.
Masruk went to Kufa or went from Kufa
to Basra to ask a man about a
Quranic verse. He failed, however, to find him,
knowledge about the verse. But whilst there, he
was informed of a knowledgeable man in Syria.
He then returned to Kufa, from which point
he set out to Syria to seek knowledge
of the verse.
And Masuruk is a great imam of the
Tabireen.
A man traveled from Kufa to Syria to
ask about Darda about the validity of an
oath he had taken.
Also, Saeed bin Jubaer, one of the great
students of, Abdullah bin Abbas
traveled from Kufa to Mecca to ask Ibn
Abbas about the explanation of a single verse
of the Quran.
Al Hassan al Basri traveled from Kufa,
to ask Ka'abin,
Urjira
about the atonement,
for,
al Abha,
during the pilgrimage.
A thorough exposition of this issue, traveling to
seek knowledge,
would be exceedingly lengthy.
To further illustrate this practice,
a man took an oath, the validity of
which the jurists were unsure of. When he
was directed to a man in a distant
land, it was said to him, that land
is near for anyone concerned about his religion.
When a person made a oath and they
had a question about it,
they said go to that place to find
out the answer.
And when when it was pointed out that
that place is really far away, what did
they say? That place is far away. It
may look far away to someone, but someone
who's
who's concerned with their dean, for that person,
it's close.
This saying offers profound advice for one who
concerns himself with his deen as much as
he concerns himself with his worldly affairs.
Now like I said, the, you know, the
very lengthy preamble yesterday hopefully, our our nightly
majalis are not gonna be that long. But
the lengthy preamble that that we tied yesterday,
the point of it was to
illustrate the chasm between different classes of people
of the ummah, all of whom ostensibly have
good intentions and wish good by the Ummah,
the prophet and
to perhaps find some sort of
common ground. If they can't find common ground
about how to think,
then to find some common ground on what
to think. If they can't find common ground
on what to think,
maybe they can find some common ground on
how to learn.
And this is something that whether or not,
you know, you believe that contagion exists or
whether or not, you believe the Masjid should
be open or closed or whether or not
you believe that the masjid is an essential
service or whatever. This is something we can
all agree upon that a sign of someone's
seriousness in their din is that they take
their deen at least as,
seriously as they take their dunya. Although,
all of us should be able to agree
that the way of Islam is to take
your deen even more seriously than your your
your, material,
well-being,
and, you know, here we are.
This saying offers profound advice for the one
who concerns his himself with his religion as
much as he concerns himself with his worldly
affairs.
If something happens involving his religion and he
finds no one to ask except for a
person in a far off land, he would
not hesitate to travel to him in order
to save his religion.
Similarly,
if an opportunity were presented to him for
some worldly gain,
in a distant land, he would hasten to
it.
In the hadith under discussion, Abu Darda radiallahu
anhu gave glad tidings to the person who
traveled to him seeking a hadith he had
heard from the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam regarding
the virtue of knowledge.
This is consistent with the Quran.
In which we read, when those believing in
our signs come to you say, peace be
upon you. Your lord has made mercy incumbent
upon himself.
Similarly, once a group of students crowded around
Al Hasan al Basri and his son then
spoke harshly to them.
Hassan said, go easy my son.
He then related the aforementioned verse.
Similarly, once a group of students crowded around
Al Hassan al Basri and his son then
spoke harshly to them. Al Hassan said, go
easy, my son. Then, he related the aforementioned
verse. And this is not like this is
not a joke or like one of the
tales of the ancients. Look,
You know,
aside from my sermonizing about, like, what being
disappointed with people nowadays you see even the
people who are full time students of knowledge,
they'll say, like, you know, you're like we'll
tell them why don't you go study in
this place and that place. Like, oh, it's
too difficult, you know. I need to have
air conditioner. I need to have this to
eat that to eat. I'm gonna get sick.
I'm gonna get bored. I need TV. I
need a telephone. I need blah blah blah.
You know, it's, you don't wanna say bad
to people like that because, look, they're at
least they're trying to learn something, but,
that's not the attitude that our forefathers used
to have. They used to go to the
the the place where the ill most best.
And just like somebody, if you give them
a full ride scholarship to Harvard and they're
like, wow. Now I'm gonna just peace out
and go to my community college and get
a, you know, certificate in, like, you know,
whatever secretarial,
duties, which is fine. There's nothing wrong with
that. It's a halal living and stuff. But,
like, if you have this opportunity to,
go for more, it's intuitive to, people who
are, like, materially inclined why you should go
to Harvard, why you should go to Yale,
and why it'll be an amazing opportunity you
won't find elsewhere.
But, we see amongst even the people who
are gonna end up giving our jumah khutbas
and, like, competently give our jumah khutbas and
give us fatwa and things like that. Oftentimes,
they'll choose where they wanna go because of,
you know, considerations with regard to food or
comfort.
But further than that, you know, this,
this
this story about, Al Hassan al Basri's son
speaking harshly to the students of knowledge.
Look. Students are people as well, and students
are fun people. They're weird people. I've been
a student as well, Anyone who's like a
a who's listening to this
Bayan,
if any of, any of our,
our our
are listening,
you know a couple of things. One is
that, Shaitan will make effort on a person
commensurate with
the quality of their intention,
meaning the more ikhlas and sincerity that you
make, the more shaitan will attack you. And
the bigger the good deed you intend, the
more shaytan will attack you. And so maybe
somebody who's just, you know, going around the
corner to buy a pack of cigarettes and
a lotto ticket, shaytan may leave them alone
completely. In fact, he may help them.
Whereas a person who's trying to do something
like settle an argument between 2 people
or settle an argument between a husband and
a wife
or, you know, rectify something that's gone wrong
in a place, or, you know, striving to,
you know, worship Allah
in the most sincere way possible, A shaitan
will attack that person with the weirdest things,
you know. People ask me, by the way,
they ask me and I've gotten already I've
already gotten electronic communication about this. They say,
Shaykh, if shaitan is supposed to be tied
up in in this month, why is it
that I'm having all these kind of weird
attacks right now,
just on the 1st day of fasting?
And I say there's a good reason for
that. It's not shaitan who's messing with you.
It's your nafs. Your nafs is freaking out
right now. Why?
Because it's like, oh my god. You're making
me, like, do something good and that's gonna
suck. And so it's gonna throw everything it
has at you. Right? So you know that.
So a person who's a student of knowledge,
who's going to, you know, seek sacred knowledge,
which is such an important thing. That's the
point we're we're talking about right now.
Yeah. Dude, Shaitan and Danas are gonna conspire,
and, they're gonna they're gonna try to jack
that person. You know? That person is their
pure and innocent ruh and heart and spirit
are walking into a dark alley with a
lot of enemies on the other side of
which is a great treasure, but it's gonna
be perilous in the middle.
And, those of you who've been a student
know that shaytan has come to you while
you're a student and made you do some
dumb things.
And everyone knows, that they've wasted time and
that, you know, they wish they could have
done something better while they were studying because
it's a beautiful opportunity while it was there.
Those of you who are still students, if
any of you are listening to this, please,
for the sake of Allah ta'ala, try your
best try your best to, you know, grind
through one more daras, one more page of
of Mubala and Morajah of reading and reviewing.
Try to grind through one more ayah in
tafsir and one more hadith in your in
your studies. Why?
You'll miss it when it's gone. You may
not get an opportunity again, and you'll swear
7 oaths up and down,
on the divine names of Allah and, on
everything sacred that those were the best days
of your life and that you would give
anything to go back to them.
But you know while you're there, it's kind
of a weird place to be. And,
you know, one of the things, especially in
particular, that the students of the Darce Nazami
will will will identify with is that the
shaitan makes the highest and hardest
effort on you when you're reading the dura
hadith, the hadith of the messenger of Allah
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
Outwardly, it seems that people are eager to
finish their studies and get on with their
life after having been in in Madrasa for
5, 6, 7, 8 years,
and so they see the end in sight.
But inwardly, the inward reality is what? You're
on the cusp of doing something great. You're
receiving
the madad,
through,
through the,
through the, through the, Alem Rouhani,
from
the names of the transmitters and from the
Mubarak name of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam
and from the angels who brought the message
of Allah to him and from Allah, Rabul
Azza,
whose deen that he brought
and you're being filled with this nur
and,
Shaitan hates it. And so he's, you know,
and Shaitan hates it and the nafs is
also not super excited about it most of
the time.
So, you know, you know, people in that
Dora Hadith, they act weird and they do
weird things and,
they get into fights and it's just it's
a really weird, like, combination of, like,
like, and, like, senioritis that that they go
through. And, I remember in Madrasa, like, some
of the students would be doing dumb things.
They'd cut class or they would come late
to stuff or they would do things that
would annoy the teachers. And so, cutting to
the chase,
we're talking about, the son of Al Hasan
al Basri yelling at the students and, Al
Hassan said go easy on on them, son.
And then he, mentions the the the verse
of the Quran.
Peace be upon you. Your Lord has
when those believing in our signs come to
you, say peace be upon you. Your lord
has made mercy incumbent upon himself.
And so for that reason, it's actually a
custom,
amongst the, amongst the, amongst the
that when a student of knowledge comes to
learn, they say they remind themselves first and
they say to others also, this is a
this is a guest of Allah
His
Rasool is a guest.
This is the guest of Allah and His
Rasool
And the guest is to be honored. And
literally, this is a practice from the time
of the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
It's not just something they see people say
even though they do say it in Urdu
from time to time. That the Ashab al
Sufah,
those people scattered people from the different tribes
that had no
no kind of like worldly machinery to take
care of them or tribal
patronage to integrate into in Madinah Munawwara. They
only came to learn the deen of Allah
and they used to starve and go through
difficulty. Literally they were referred to as the
guests of Islam.
They were referred to as the guests of
Islam. So whoever considers himself connected with Islam,
ostensibly, that person should honor these people. If
they're the guests of Allah and Hisr Rasool
Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, then whoever is connected with
Allah and His Rasool Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, they
should honor these people. And further
than that,
look,
you know, if Allah threw a party, who
wouldn't wanna go to his party?
Well, guess what? This Quran is the matduba
to Allah. It literally is the, the Madduba,
the the the gathering and the party that's
being thrown by Allah
So let a person come to that duba
as much as they're they're able to. This
is one of the first a'athar that's mentioned
in
the tafsir kurtubi and the Muqaddimah in the
in the forward,
with regards to the adab of, with the
book of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
Who wouldn't wanna be the guest of Allah?
Allah Ta'ala is throwing a party. You know,
people go to a flower parties in which,
like, you know, and,
you know, like, Roshan uncle and, like, you
know, whatever,
Abu Fulan and Abu Quran and Abu Stan
and whatever are throwing their parties. You know,
I know some Syrians in Ohio, they
throw a really good party. You know, I've
been incidentally invited to their,
Istar parties,
in the past while, you know, traveling,
to Cleveland
for whatever type of work.
And,
you know, they're if there are parties, the
food is so good it, you know, ends
up messing with your intention that you came
only for the sake of Allah and, then
you're like, dang, this is good food. I
hope they invite
you next next month. So we're so excited
about these invitations.
Imagine Allah is throwing a party, who wouldn't
wanna go?
I'll tell you who wouldn't wanna go, Munafiq
wouldn't wanna go, and a Kafir wouldn't wanna
go.
But anyone who has any iman inside of
their heart, they would be like this is
awesome. I wanna go to this. Right?
And so, you know, one thing is honoring
the guests of Allah His Rasul Sallallahu Alaihi
Wasallam.
And one thing is that wouldn't you want
to be the guest in that house? Wouldn't
you wanna be the guest of the messenger
of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam? That Nabi
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he would give dua
to a person and that person's life would
change.
He would give Dua to a person
He gave this dua that said, Abdullah bin
Abbas
literally the man, you know, the man used
to teach
he used to teach the Quran to the
people who would come to the,
haram Sharif and
like the Pentecost. He would teach people miraculously.
Allah would, would give him the ability to
speak the tongues of the different nations and
he would teach people the deen and all
the different tongues of the people who come
from different parts of the world, it said.
You know, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala his messenger
made dua for people, you know, Allah ibn
Hazarami radiAllahu who is not even one of
the senior companions.
The Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam taught him the
divine name,
the Islam
and he like performed miracles. He would like
walk on water and do all of these
things. And people say, well, this is just
fake hagiography.
Al Abid Hadarami was not a, like a
saint who like sat in the corner,
you know, saying prayers in the Christian sense
of the word.
He was a commander of, an army detachment.
They went out and conquered, conquered like lands.
They subdued their enemies, you know.
You can you can fake,
stories about that only are witnessed by 1
or 2 people, in a in a dark
room somewhere, but you can't fake conquest.
You know, you can't
yeah. You can't fake those things. You know,
the Persian empire doesn't collapse based on a
fictional geography,
under the under the feet of the companions
of the So who wouldn't wanna go and
meet that Nabi
You know, if he looks at you and
you look at him,
What does that mean? That you he looks
at you and you look at him and
then your
becomes like
it becomes like milk and sugar. It becomes
cake,
thereafter. Who wouldn't wanna go to that that,
invitation? Well, guess what? You can still go.
You can still be the guest of Allah
and you can still be the guest of
the Rasool Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. This is what
Al Hassan al Basri was saying to his
son, go easy on them because these people
are, you know, they're important people, they're the
guests of Allah and his Rasool Sallallahu Alaihi
Wasallam and he brought a verse of the
Quran in order to prove that point.
And when I was I remember when I
was in Dora Hadith, one of our, one
of our,
who is currently the Amir of the which
is one of the kind of most broad
based
coalitions,
of ulama in Pakistan, which has a number
of sectarian divisions in it.
But this is one of the most broad
based coalitions,
of of Olama,
and he's considered to be, he's considered to
be a very
respected individual.
And
he preserve him and give him long life.
I don't know how I can
describe him to people,
except for people who wouldn't believe me. So
just go meet him inshallah and you'll you'll
know yourself and then you can tell people
what kind of person he is. But literally
the most spiritual person, one of the most
spiritual people after
I've ever seen, it's him.
Maybe Allah created somebody who is has a
higher station than him, but I cannot believe
that Allah has created anyone like him.
So he
he he has a weird, tartib in which
he wakes up, read reads this tahajjud and
praises fajr and then he
will,
just cram until 10 AM. And then from
10 AM, he'll sit in one place and,
he won't go from classroom to classroom, but
the students will come and go, come and
go,
to him.
And he'll basically teach,
until Assar time, with, I think,
prayer breaks,
a lunch break and, like, maybe, like, 10
minutes of klulah in which he doesn't even
sleep. He just
he just lays down just because of sunnah,
and I've seen it before. I've been in
the room with him before. You know? There's
no way that he falls asleep in that
short of a amount of time. He just
lays down, shuts the light off just so
that the sunnah can be completed. And then
he'll teach and tell Asar, and then he'll
go to another madrassa and teach and tell
Isha, and then he'll go to another madrassa
and teach until, like, 1 in the morning.
And, he gets home 1 30, 2 o'clock
and goes to sleep. And the next fajr,
he starts it again and only goes home
to see his family. He sleeps in the
madrasa. He only goes home to see his
family on
on on Thursday evening because
Thursday evening after Assur, the Madars closed for
the weekend,
and then he spends Thursday evening at home.
And then,
Friday morning, he gets up and goes and,
gives Jummah and then meets with the with
the Murids. And,
and the Murids, the only time to get
is Friday
afternoon, evening. And then, like, starting Saturday morning,
he's back into teaching again. And, if there's
ever a man who never had enough time
alone that he could fake it, it's him.
And so, he was, you know, he is
a very pious man and and very beloved
by the students, in a way that I
I don't think people will understand
living in America.
You wanna talk about rock star chef, those
are pious people who don't know what a
rock star is, but they definitely
revere the pious more than people here can
understand.
So Ustaji Milan Hassan one time, because he
has so many Durusi teaches in the day,
the schedule of his darsas are they're really,
like, uneven, you know. So,
the darsas start at approximately a particular time,
but but
they're taught in order not necessarily according to
a clock schedule.
And so,
you know, the request always was that the
students be in the in the room waiting
for him,
and,
when he comes, he'll come. But he has
so little,
like, spare time other than the time that
he's allotted for the dars that,
that they shouldn't, you know, they shouldn't be
late. They should wait for him, not the
other way around. So he came into the
the into the,
into the class one day,
and there was
a couple of students who were not there.
And,
Estagie is like, where are they? Go find
them.
And then some of the students looked for
them. They're like, well, they're not in their
rooms. He goes, no. Look all around the
the campus in the Madrasa, several acres. He
goes, go from building to building looking for
them. You know? Because he was very concerned
that any no student should miss Darce. Very
concerned that no student should miss Darce.
Very concerned that no student should ever miss
Darce, in a way that I think is
administratively awkward. He's very concerned about that.
And so in a moment of in a
moment of frustration, he did something that, you
know, is very common in the Madrasa,
which is sometimes the the get annoyed with
the students who already treat them, who already
treat them with immense respect.
And he got he got very annoyed with
them and so he just said something that,
like, many will
say off the cuff, you know, just part
of the non non geographical
and very real daily,
life.
He said, oh,
He said, don't these, don't these, don't these,
like,
scoundrels know that, this is about to commence
or that it's you know, this is the
time for the darsh every day that they're,
like, absent at this time.
And
what happens is that eventually, the student that
went to go look for them finds them,
and they come into the madras they're they're
slate.
And Ustaji is just teaching. You know? I
read I read the front half of the
Mishkats from him. I read a jildav,
of the Hidayah from him. I read the
front half of
Jalalim from him. I read Musal Salat from
him. I read Avud A'ud from him. I
read the front half of Tirmidi from him.
He's like a really like, just like a
very marathon type teacher,
and loves the oolum. And he is famous
about him that, that no matter how stupid
the student is, that he somehow finds a
way to, like, explain the darsh to them.
And,
no matter how incompetent the student is, somehow
or another, all of them do some sort
of service for Dean
afterward, which is, I think, less a matter
of of skill and alone, but more a
matter of skill combined with with with with,
like,
piety from Allah to Allah that has to
do with Tawfiq.
And so he he said this thing, and
then he just goes on his his.
And then,
you know, in the middle of in the
middle of dars, like, minute 45 or something
over, like, an hour dars,
Ustaji just stops his he stops as Darcy.
He's looking in the hadith of the prophet
He has the book open. He's sitting on
the Mesned,
and he says he just stops and just
last. And I look up. I said, what's
going on? I look up and I see
he's he's weeping.
He's crying. Like, tears are coming down his
eyes.
And he says,
These aren't scoundrels.
These are the guests of Allah, Hish Raul
Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
So Estradji cried.
And I looked at the 2, and I
knew they were just wasting time. I said,
I'm gonna beat these guys when we're done.
They made Eustachi
cry.
But no matter how bad I said anything
to them, they'll never forget the love with
which they were taught.
One of those students actually passed away a
couple of years ago.
But what do I explain to people
who throw
these books to the side and throw this
knowledge to the side?
That to you, it's an annoyance and difficulty
and
an impracticality
of
reading something from a different time, in a
different place,
and in a different language.
And you have to earn your living, and
so do I.
What do I explain to you that to
you, it's all of those things?
But to Ustazhi and those who sat with
him, this is our deed.
And if you didn't see that from anybody
and if we were unable to show that
to you ourselves,
then how would you know?
So Allah
give us that,
like
through whom
our propagates
from
All of the masha'if all the way through
to our
that this is their tradition. Some people put
the up on the wall and then they,
you know,
eat halva by the kilo.
And this is our we saw them actually
living what our,
showed to them as a an example.
What should I show to you that there
there's a certain people that, this was a
reality to them? And maybe somebody, you know,
wants to disagree with me with regards to
or with
regards to or hadith or any of these
things, you know, within reason.
And,
I can I can I can stomach that?
I've lived with people who don't agree with
me, and I don't agree with them my
whole life. I can stomach that.
But, for the sake of Allah, if you
love
Allah
and
his
rasul
and,
you know, and
you value this knowledge as sacred,
then I see Baraka in your opinion even
if it's different than mine.
And if it's just all a waste of
time in some sort of fashion or some
sort of inconvenience or whatever,
then,
even if you agree with me, I think,
what we differ on is is more than
than what's in common between us.
Allah give us to have to
have and desire for this knowledge
and to revere it as it should be
revered so that it can come into our
hearts. It comes into our minds,
It can come into our hearts as well
and, blaze with its radiant light,
until it it it vanquishes darkness.
