00:00:27 --> 00:00:28
			Gave,
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			the highest praise that,
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:33
			human being or anyone from the creation could
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			have received
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:36
			when he said to Rasool Allah
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:38
			that
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43
			we did not send you except for as
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:44
			a mercy to the world.
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:47
			The tafsir of the ayah is,
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:50
			something that inshallah people can look up on
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:51
			their own and sit with their
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:53
			and read and listen to.
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55
			But
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:57
			the and
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59
			the connection of mentioning this,
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:01
			in this,
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			momentous night.
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:05
			This night,
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:06
			connected to
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:08
			the date
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:10
			that Rasool Allah
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:13
			was born on.
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:15
			His Moled Mubarak
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:15
			alayhisat
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:16
			wasalam.
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:21
			The reason for this mauled being a celebration
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:24
			is to bring it to have
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:27
			the Muslims, toward something,
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:29
			which is that the love of the
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:30
			Rasul
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			is from the greatest of those things that
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			will save a person on the day of
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:35
			judgement.
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:38
			This is because of the hadith Sahih of
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:40
			the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			narrated from him not only once but numerous
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:43
			times that he said
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:48
			that a man will be with the one
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			that they with the one that he loves.
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:52
			And so
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:57
			when people gather together and they
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:01
			read the seerah of the prophet sallallahu alaihi
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:01
			wasallam
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			and they describe his noble characteristics
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:06
			and they
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:09
			sing an ashid in poetry in his praise
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			and they repeat the salat and salaam on
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			his Mubarak name
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:19
			In as much as the person's heart becomes
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			and
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:22
			directed toward
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:23
			his
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:28
			noble and in as much as a person
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:29
			sends off his son to the prophet
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32
			which is presented to
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:33
			him by the angels,
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:35
			not only by the name of the person
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			who says it, but by the name of
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:38
			their father with it as well.
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:43
			That the rasul responds, and it's a blessing
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:47
			for that person. And that's where the
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:50
			benefit and that's where the blessing start from,
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:52
			but they don't end there.
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:53
			The
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:56
			remembrance of the
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:57
			Rasul
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:59
			and his love
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:00
			is
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:02
			the beginning of a journey,
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:04
			and that journey
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:05
			involves
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:09
			imbibing that sunnah into a person's own state.
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:12
			And so when we wish to imbibe that
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:13
			sunnah into our own state,
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16
			it includes a number of things. It includes
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:17
			how we eat and how we drink, how
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19
			we sit and how we stand, how we
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:20
			dress,
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:22
			how we interact with our elders and with
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:23
			those younger than us,
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:25
			how we interact with
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:27
			our friends and with our enemies,
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:29
			how we,
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:33
			comport outwardly and how we carry ourselves inwardly
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:35
			in our state with Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:37
			It's important to remember the rahmah of the
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:40
			messenger of Allah salallahu alayhi wa sallam which
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:43
			is unfortunately forgot forgotten by Muslims.
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:44
			And it's particularly
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:46
			forgotten when it comes to other Muslims.
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:50
			For whatever reason, we can remember the rahmah
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:52
			when it comes to a a kaffir.
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:56
			Somehow or another, we are in super James
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:57
			Bond Muslim mode
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:00
			where we don't want to look or say
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:01
			anything crooked
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:01
			lest,
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:04
			you know, that lack of a please or
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:06
			a thank you or that crooked glance or
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:07
			that
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:08
			face,
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			in which there is some consternation showing
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:13
			be used as
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:16
			a proof against us on the day of
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:19
			judgment for why this person didn't accept Islam
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:21
			even though such a concept is patently ridiculous.
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:23
			Yes. You can drive a person away from
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:26
			Islam for sure through your bad conduct, but
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:26
			just because,
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:28
			you know, you had a a bad day
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:30
			or you had a bad expression on your
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:31
			face or
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:33
			you dealt with another person within the parameters
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:35
			of normal human behavior
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:37
			and that person resented it. It's not going
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:37
			to
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:40
			be somehow your fault that that person didn't
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:41
			accept Islam or whatever.
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:43
			But we have this hypersensitivity
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:46
			for reasons that we don't have time to
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:47
			discuss right now.
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:50
			Whereas Allah
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:51
			describes
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:53
			the people with Muhammad
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:55
			Muhammadun Rasulullah
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:59
			that he, Muhammad alayhi salatu wasalam, is the
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:00
			messenger of Allah.
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:08
			And those who are with him are are
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:09
			harsh against
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:10
			those
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:13
			antagonistic ones from the disbelievers.
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:16
			That's fine. We'll put that aside. Right? It's
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:17
			not this doesn't necessarily mean that you should,
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:19
			like, you know, see somebody who's not a
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:20
			Muslim and, you know, elbow in the face
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:22
			or whatever at work. That's not what it's
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:25
			saying, but let's leave the the interpretation of
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:27
			this. Let's summarize it by saying the antagonistic
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29
			from amongst the kafar are harsh and severe
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:30
			against them.
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:32
			But focus on
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:33
			the next phrase,
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:37
			that they have mercy against or mercy with
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:38
			one another,
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:39
			that they're adila,
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:42
			that they're they're they're they're gentle and they're
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:43
			humble
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:44
			with
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:46
			with, with the believers.
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:47
			That this is from the greatest of the
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:49
			sunnahs of the messenger of Allah
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:53
			and it's worth remembering
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:54
			on this,
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:56
			momentous occasion
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:58
			of the mawlid of Rasool
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:02
			Allah and it's worth remembering that it still
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:03
			counts even for the people who don't celebrate
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:05
			the mooled. Mhmm.
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:07
			And it still counts for the people who
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:08
			don't accept tariqa,
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:10
			and it still counts for the people who
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:12
			don't know fiqh, and it still counts for
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:13
			the people who,
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:16
			aren't pious or righteous people. It still counts
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:18
			for the people who don't pray. How about
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:20
			the people who do? It still counts for
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:21
			the people who are Muslims,
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:25
			and you and I despise them because it
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:26
			doesn't harm them all that much that you
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:27
			and me may hate them,
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:29
			if Allah Ta'ala
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:30
			gave them
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:32
			to prove that he loves him.
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:36
			And this rahma is such that it even
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:41
			crosses the line of iman for that matter.
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:42
			And
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:45
			the context for this is what is that
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:46
			we live in an age
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:49
			where people literally, like, you know, on on
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:51
			social media and things like that. And the
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:53
			social media is, you know, it's a microcosm
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:55
			that's not representative of the real world. I
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:56
			get that. But
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:59
			real, like, issues that people have play out,
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:01
			you know, through that prism. The the the
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:03
			hustle, the root of the issue is there
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:05
			in the hearts whether a person has a
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:06
			phone or doesn't have a phone or uses
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:08
			Facebook or doesn't use use Facebook.
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:10
			They play out in kind of a particular
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:11
			way,
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:13
			in social media, and then they'll play out
		
00:07:13 --> 00:07:15
			differently verbally. They'll play out differently in family.
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:17
			They'll play out differently in Germany than they
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:18
			will in France because of certain
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:21
			differences in the medium of how humans express
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:24
			themselves based on differing circumstances.
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:26
			But the also, the of it is is
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:28
			the same in all all situations,
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:31
			which is what? Which is because this is
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:33
			our context we should talk about things that
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:34
			are relevant to our context. That the same
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:36
			person who will DM me
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:38
			and ask me, hey, you know, I wanna
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:40
			learn Arabic. Where should I learn Arabic from,
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:42
			months ago, just a few months ago, that
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:44
			same person you'll see them blasting
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:46
			ulama and they'll blast. And when I say
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:48
			ulama, I'm not talking about people alive now,
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:50
			I'm talking about the great ulama of the
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:52
			past. That this is shameful, this is wrong,
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:54
			this person is racist, this person is sexist,
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:55
			this person is this, this person is that,
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:57
			to the point where we've had to hear
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:59
			even blasphemy against the Anbih alayhi wasalam,
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:02
			about about about about the Ambi
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:05
			things that people used to regard as above
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:08
			reproach. That these are those set data points
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:09
			in in in
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:14
			the constellations of the night sky meaning
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:17
			by which we ourselves, you know,
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:21
			that we ourselves take guidance, that we orient
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:23
			ourselves based on those things, and people are
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:24
			just taking them and trashing them one way
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:26
			or the other, one side or the other.
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:28
			And,
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:29
			people will say things
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:30
			innocuously,
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:32
			and others will
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:34
			bend them so out of shape and interpret
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:35
			them so uncharitably
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:38
			and take the worst possible meaning or the
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:40
			worst meaning that's impossible from what a person
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:42
			said instead of thinking about it once, twice,
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			three times. They're trying to see, like, you
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:47
			know, how could this possibly mean something not
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:47
			horrible.
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:51
			And then afterward, have this kind of, like,
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:54
			you know, outrage Olympics or grievance Olympics where
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:55
			we, want to just,
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:56
			like,
		
00:08:56 --> 00:08:59
			heap this garbage of negativity on other people.
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:02
			We have in this issue also, we have
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:02
			a great
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:04
			a great and a beautiful,
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:06
			example,
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:09
			Iswatul Hasana in the Messenger of Allah
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:11
			which is what
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:13
			Allah Ta'ala himself commands in his book. He
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:15
			says that the people the the people, the
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:17
			Ulul al Bab and the people of Hidayah
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:18
			are who,
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:24
			The people who hear
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:26
			a speech, and they follow the best of
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:28
			that that which is in it. They seek
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:29
			out. Right?
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:33
			Is is is what? Is is like in
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:36
			in in in in in in in in
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:38
			in in in following something. They literally strain
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:40
			themselves to seek out what the best is
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:41
			of something, and that's what they take.
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:44
			And then thereafter, look at Rasulullah
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:46
			If you want to have
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:50
			objections and you want to shout people down
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:51
			and hack people down,
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:54
			look at what the Rasulullah salallahu alayhi wa
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:55
			sallam, what his standard was.
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:58
			Was that during his lifetime, Abdullah bin Ubay
		
00:09:58 --> 00:10:00
			who is who, he's known as what is
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:01
			his lakab, it's not a mere mumineen, is
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:03
			it? No one is raisul munafiqeen.
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:06
			Right? He's not just a he's he's not
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:07
			just a president, he's also a client.
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:09
			Not of the hair club for men, but
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:10
			of mifak.
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:14
			He's a hypocrite. The Rasul Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:16
			by what he knows he's a hypocrite. There
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:19
			are many ayaat about hypocrites that refer directly
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:19
			to him.
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:22
			But even then the Rasul
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:25
			despite knowing exactly who he was and who
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:27
			those people were, there's a great hikmah in
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:28
			him not
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:31
			explicitly outing those people
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:33
			and the ummah can look and see that
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:35
			the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:37
			because you and me have like we have
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:39
			our doubts about somebody, is this person sincere
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:40
			or not? And we may actually be very
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:41
			close to the mark if not on the
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:44
			mark with regards to them. But still we
		
00:10:44 --> 00:10:45
			can say that because we don't have knowledge
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:47
			of the gharib there's some shubha maybe this
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:48
			person actually has some iman and something else
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:49
			is going on here.
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:52
			Whereas with him there's a great hikmah that
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:53
			Allah gave him a test higher than the
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:55
			test of other people, which is what he
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:58
			actually knew that there are actually catheters inside,
		
00:10:58 --> 00:10:59
			that there's the, you know, the lights are
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:01
			on, but nobody's home as far as their
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:03
			heart is concerned, as far as their iman
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:04
			is concerned.
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:06
			And even then he showed the ummah this
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:08
			is how you deal with the people that
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:10
			you have suspicion with, I'll show you how
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:10
			to deal with them.
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:13
			Which is what? There's a hadith, a narration
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:16
			of Bukhari itself in case somebody wants to
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:16
			impugn
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:20
			the authenticity of what's about to be said,
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:22
			which is that
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:24
			he insulted the Messenger of Allah
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:26
			in the worst of ways.
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:29
			And Sayna Amr asked
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:32
			for permission to kill him and the Rasul
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:35
			not only did he not give permission but
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:37
			he gave a reason as well. He said,
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:38
			I don't want people to say Muhammad Un
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:39
			Yaqul Ashabahu.
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:43
			I don't want people to say what? That
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:44
			Muhammad kills his companions
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:49
			Why? Because it's a type of wretchedness. They're
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:50
			all in Madinah to to people from the
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:52
			outside. Right? Like, when the Arabs sit with
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:53
			us and we say, oh, this is Gujrathi,
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:55
			and this is Punjabi, and this is Hadarabad,
		
00:11:55 --> 00:11:56
			they're like, what are you guys all, like,
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:57
			eat roti and biryani? Like, what are you
		
00:11:57 --> 00:11:58
			talking? What's the difference? Right?
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:01
			They're sitting in Madinah to the rest of
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:03
			the pagan idolaters of of Arabia. They're all
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:04
			Muslims.
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:05
			So if the Rasul
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:09
			like over something, which really is Kufr, I
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:11
			mean, people don't know that it's not if
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:13
			he gives permission to, you know, have someone's
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:15
			head lapped off, so well, you know, the
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:18
			people of Yasser, they received him. And, and
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:19
			look what he's doing. He's not, like, going
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:21
			on a purge and killing people. It's something
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:22
			like it sounds like some sort of, like,
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:25
			nightmare, like like a Maoist purge or like
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:28
			Paul, Patton, Khmer Rouge type thing. You know?
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:30
			Says this is not what we're this is
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:31
			not what we're looking for. You know? We're
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:34
			not looking for for this this vibe. We're
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:35
			not looking for this,
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:37
			energy. We're not looking for this,
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:40
			you know, for for this type of look.
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:41
			This is not how we're how we wanna
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:43
			be known. Is that we're the people that
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:44
			Mohammed is the one that
		
00:12:46 --> 00:12:48
			that that that kills his his companions.
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:52
			Yeah. Look at us. Look at us. Masha'Allah.
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:52
			1 tariqah
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:55
			hacks down the other one. 1 marids hacks
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:57
			down the other one. 1 woman hacks down
		
00:12:57 --> 00:12:59
			another one. 1 slave hacks down the other
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:00
			one. 1 amirs hacks down the other one.
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:03
			People are in competition over donations. People are
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:06
			in competition over over disciples. People are in
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:08
			competition over money. People are in competition over
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:11
			business. People are just hacking each other down,
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:13
			and people are feel happy to say, oh,
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:15
			you know, freaking Wahhabis and freaking Sufis. There's
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:17
			people are mushrike, and these people are Khawarij.
		
00:13:17 --> 00:13:19
			These people are this and that. I mean,
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:20
			there are people who
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:22
			really do cross a line, and
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:25
			this is why the institution of
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:29
			Ulaam Arabani Yun exists in the in the
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:31
			Ummah, which is unfortunately not every Madrasah graduate.
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:33
			But there are certain people
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:35
			who are people of the Lord. The problem
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:38
			is what? If you don't spend time reading
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:38
			the Quran,
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:42
			both studying it, but also in its recitation
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:44
			and putting it in action and
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:46
			then take the beating that inevitably comes with
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:48
			that, you won't be able to you won't
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:50
			be able to recognize who's good at that.
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:51
			You know? You just have a kind of
		
00:13:51 --> 00:13:52
			fantasy in your mind that there's some people
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:54
			who say, well, if the prophet was alive,
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:56
			he would just pet every bunny rabbit or
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:57
			whatever. How do you know that? You know?
		
00:13:57 --> 00:13:58
			Like, how do you know if he was
		
00:13:58 --> 00:13:59
			alive, what he would do, what he wouldn't
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:01
			do? You haven't read a book of Hadith
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:02
			yet. So I don't know, like, what to
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:04
			say to people who are so disconnected, like
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:05
			but all I can say is if you
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:07
			look you start that journey, you can go
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:09
			a little bit into it and and get
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:10
			some idea, you know, who those people are.
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:12
			That some time or another, those people will
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:13
			say, okay. This person has crossed the line.
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:15
			They need to be called out. Even then,
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:17
			when they're called out, even in the case
		
00:14:17 --> 00:14:18
			when a person is
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:24
			a a profligate person, openly profligate person
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:26
			is shameless in his profligacy. It's not that
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:28
			you just caught him doing something in public
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:30
			that he doesn't want people to know about,
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:32
			but he's actually shamelessly doing it.
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:34
			That's the case in which it's permissible to,
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:37
			call that person out and that it's not
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:39
			considered backbiting against them anymore to say what
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:40
			that thing that that person does. And if
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:42
			people need to be warned in order to
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:42
			be,
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:45
			saved from that person's harm, then it's permissible
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:46
			to warn that person. But even then,
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:49
			it's limited to that one thing. It's like
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:51
			it's limited. There's no nuclear option where you
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:52
			just kind of like go,
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:54
			not sign a Muslim
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:56
			And this is really odious to the time
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:57
			and place we live in because we live
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:59
			in what in cancel culture.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			And, you know, people will so and so
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:03
			deserves to be canceled. No. I mean, people
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:04
			can do horrendous types of things. If that
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:06
			person dies on iman, I don't care what
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:08
			you think, you know, or what you say.
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:10
			That person has a right to make tawba,
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:11
			and it's between them and Allah. Does Does
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:12
			it mean that we should make them our
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:14
			leader? Does it mean that we should learn
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:15
			darsh from them? Does it mean that we
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:17
			should tell people to take? No. Absolutely not.
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:19
			But still that person still always has a
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:22
			right to make tawba. That person always has
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:23
			a a a a, you know, a janaza
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:25
			that's set over them. That person is buried
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:26
			even if
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:28
			in a very limited fashion. We don't cancel
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:31
			we don't cancel anybody who's still a Muslim
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:31
			completely.
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:34
			We're not supposed to. This happened. There are
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:36
			many odious cases that are not really PR
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:36
			friendly.
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:38
			The Boston,
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:40
			marathon bomber,
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:42
			you know, so many masajid in in New
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:44
			England, so we're not gonna give this person
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:45
			a janazah.
		
00:15:45 --> 00:15:47
			Right? And people like Saddam and Osama and
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:50
			whatever, especially for somebody who's in America,
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:52
			you know, to say this person died on
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:54
			Islam, so there's a limit to how bad
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:56
			I'm gonna speak about this, you know, per
		
00:15:56 --> 00:15:57
			you know, Saddam is not
		
00:15:58 --> 00:16:00
			not somebody that you know, I don't think
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:01
			anyone at least in this room is gonna
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:03
			say that, like, you know, we hold them
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:05
			up as a role model. But the fact
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:06
			of the matter is the man said, la
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:08
			ilaha illallah before he died and Allah knows
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:10
			what's in his heart. And he publicly repented
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:12
			for his sins. I'm not saying that you
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:13
			shouldn't hold him up as a role model.
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:16
			What I'm saying, though, is just to please
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:17
			a person who has no
		
00:16:18 --> 00:16:20
			light inside of their heart, whose heart is
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:21
			filled with material things,
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:24
			and, they don't look for anything except for
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:25
			the life of this world, and they look
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:27
			they don't look forward to meeting Allah, and
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:28
			they don't look forward to the day of
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:31
			judgment. Just to please those people, we're not
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:33
			gonna cross a line with somebody who says
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:35
			la ilaha illallah even though we accept that
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:36
			their crimes are crimes and they're not good,
		
00:16:37 --> 00:16:39
			and they're they're not good. If this is
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:40
			what we have to hold as a as
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:43
			a minimum standard, then what Jawaz is there
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:43
			for us to
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:46
			shout and hack other people down.
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:48
			The Rasul, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, you wanna
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:50
			talk about his sunnah, okay, it's the mawlid,
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:51
			then, you know, nobody's gonna not celebrate the
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:54
			mawlid unless you're, you know, like Wahaabi, Erhabi,
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:55
			Kababi,
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:58
			whatever you wanna call a person. Right? Okay.
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:00
			Let's come sit together. This is the sunnah
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:02
			of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, the
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:03
			person that we hate and the person that
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:05
			we but they're still a Muslim, what can
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:06
			we do about it? Even if we have
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:09
			our suspicions about this person being complete total
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:09
			hypocrite.
		
00:17:11 --> 00:17:13
			We don't have the right to hack that
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:15
			person down to kill that person.
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:17
			Someone might say, well, you know, freedom of
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:18
			speech.
		
00:17:18 --> 00:17:20
			That's a completely different paradigm that, you know,
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:23
			that the constitution is a wonderful and interesting
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:25
			document of momentous importance in world history.
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:29
			It's not even a particularly bad document in
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:30
			in in some sense. I don't have any
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:33
			sort of, like, animus against it.
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:34
			However,
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:37
			we have to accept the fact that it's
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:39
			not something based on the teachings of Wahi
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:41
			of revelation. It's not otherworldly. All of its
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:42
			genius, all of its
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:45
			utility, all of its benefit is something that's
		
00:17:45 --> 00:17:46
			completely from,
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:49
			you know, this dunya. It's within the the
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:50
			ambit of of of of this dunya and
		
00:17:50 --> 00:17:53
			its reason and its logic and its understanding.
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:55
			It doesn't have any sort of transcendent,
		
00:17:56 --> 00:17:58
			any sort of transcendent reality. There are people
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:00
			in America who kind of wanna look for
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:02
			dean because they have no dean, so they
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:03
			saw, look, you know,
		
00:18:04 --> 00:18:05
			guided by the hand of providence
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:07
			and this and that. No. It's a document
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:09
			they made some severe mistakes in it. They've
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:11
			made our African American brothers into a 3
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:13
			fifths of a person for the purpose of
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:15
			voting and taxation. It's not it's a flood
		
00:18:15 --> 00:18:16
			document,
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:17
			you know, and we can accept the good
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:19
			things about it rather than the bad. The
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:21
			freedom of speech and the idea of sticks
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:23
			and stones will break my bones is is
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:25
			not the idea of Islam, it's kufr. What
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:26
			does
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:27
			it say?
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:29
			He said that the Saba of the believer
		
00:18:29 --> 00:18:30
			is what? Moana?
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:33
			Si Babu who is what? The fist.
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:35
			It's the fist. Right?
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:37
			Right? It's like killing the person. When you
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:39
			when you cuss someone out, when you dog
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:40
			a a Muslim out, it's like you're killing
		
00:18:40 --> 00:18:43
			them. It is the definition of sin. And
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:45
			the actual killing of the Muslim is what?
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:47
			It's as if it's kufr.
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:49
			The Ulamas will say, Okay, well we won't
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:51
			say that this is kufrul millah but it's
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:52
			kufral nam.
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:53
			Rasulullah
		
00:18:54 --> 00:18:55
			in his last
		
00:18:56 --> 00:18:56
			Hajjatulwada,
		
00:18:57 --> 00:18:59
			the biggest audience he ever addressed in his
		
00:18:59 --> 00:19:01
			life sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:04
			What did he say? He said, don't return
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:05
			after I am gone. Kuffaras,
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:07
			in grateful
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:10
			people that some of you smite the necks
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:10
			of
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:12
			others.
		
00:19:13 --> 00:19:15
			But still, that's what that's what we're doing.
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:16
			That's what we see,
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:18
			And it's not enough for a person to
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:20
			see someone that they disagree with and give
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:23
			them the most charitable interpretation possible, to stretch
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:25
			themselves. You know? Do you see the old
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:27
			ulama are like that? You know, you read
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:27
			read,
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:30
			and you read, you know, the they
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:34
			don't hold their tongues back from lashing bad
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:34
			ideas,
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:38
			or from chastising people who propagate bad ideas.
		
00:19:38 --> 00:19:40
			But you'll see this that they'll they'll
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:42
			go through all of the person's defenses of
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:44
			their own wrong positions, and then they'll add
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:46
			other defenses that that person didn't think of
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:46
			that are oftentimes
		
00:19:47 --> 00:19:49
			superior defenses of those wrong positions and the
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:51
			the the defenses that those people gave for
		
00:19:51 --> 00:19:53
			themselves, and then they'll refuse them.
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:56
			We don't do that. Rather, we race to
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:58
			what? To give the person the worst possible
		
00:19:58 --> 00:20:00
			interpretation and then smash them into the ground
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:02
			in a way that doesn't benefit anybody. All
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:03
			it is is the of
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:05
			of of the nafs that you hate that
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:06
			person for whatever
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:08
			reason, real or phantasmical
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:11
			that that you've conjured up inside of your
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:12
			heart, and now you're going to,
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:14
			you know,
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:16
			you're going to go ahead and have,
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:20
			you know, have the the the naked,
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:22
			spectacle
		
00:20:22 --> 00:20:23
			of your,
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:25
			of your anger and your rage,
		
00:20:25 --> 00:20:28
			satisfy itself in the most shameless way possible,
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:30
			on that person. And if you have other
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:33
			people egging you on, then nobody's ashamed anymore.
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:35
			But the fact of the matter is Allah
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:37
			and His Rasool Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam are not
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:39
			pleased with that. Rather the ummah of the
		
00:20:39 --> 00:20:41
			prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam is such an ummah
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:43
			that people used to value the imam imam
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:45
			of another person. That the rusul sallallahu alaihi
		
00:20:45 --> 00:20:47
			wa sallam used to say that even the
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:49
			imam of a person, he said to Osama
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:51
			bin Zayed, his most beloved,
		
00:20:51 --> 00:20:53
			you know, as if he was his grandson,
		
00:20:53 --> 00:20:55
			he he would say to him or he
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:57
			said to him when he
		
00:20:57 --> 00:20:59
			heard the news that he killed somebody who
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:00
			said, La ilaha illallah.
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:02
			And Usama bin Zayed, when asked about it,
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:04
			said he only did it to save himself.
		
00:21:04 --> 00:21:06
			So what? Did you split his chest open?
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:08
			Now tell me something. You guys all heard
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:10
			the story. What's the probable probability that he
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:12
			said it because in that one moment he,
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:13
			you know, thought about Islam and was convinced
		
00:21:13 --> 00:21:15
			idol worship is bankrupt.
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:17
			Very low probability. Mhmm. But this is still
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:19
			a a story that we all tell. We
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:20
			understand. It's part of it's intuitive with the
		
00:21:20 --> 00:21:23
			logic of iman, why it's something that we
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:25
			should, hold fast to,
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:27
			that that's something that they used to do.
		
00:21:27 --> 00:21:29
			They used to stick up for one another,
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:31
			but now what is it? The entire Muslim
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:33
			world is filled with people. We cuss each
		
00:21:33 --> 00:21:34
			other out and dog each other out because
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:35
			we don't have the ability to actually kill
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:37
			one another. That's what it is. We can't
		
00:21:37 --> 00:21:39
			get away with it. It's a crisis of
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:41
			opportunity. I see people, Muslims in the Muslim
		
00:21:41 --> 00:21:43
			community, that hate each other to that degree.
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:45
			It happens in Masjid elections. It happens in
		
00:21:45 --> 00:21:47
			in classes. It happens in schools. It happens
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:49
			between sectarian groups. It happens between,
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:50
			national,
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:53
			national identities. It happens between rich and poor.
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:55
			It happens between skin colors. We would kill
		
00:21:55 --> 00:21:57
			one another if we had the ability to
		
00:21:57 --> 00:21:58
			get away with it. We would enslave another
		
00:21:58 --> 00:22:00
			Muslim if we had the ability to get
		
00:22:00 --> 00:22:01
			it get away with it. We would wrongfully
		
00:22:01 --> 00:22:03
			jail another Muslim if we had the ability.
		
00:22:03 --> 00:22:05
			But it's a crisis of opportunity, out of
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:07
			his mercy, he made us,
		
00:22:08 --> 00:22:11
			completely as relevant to society as the froth
		
00:22:11 --> 00:22:12
			on the top of the sea is to
		
00:22:12 --> 00:22:14
			the waves. And we're not able to get
		
00:22:14 --> 00:22:15
			get away with it, but it's the same
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:17
			thing inside which causes the people in the
		
00:22:17 --> 00:22:19
			Muslim world to fight and kill each other.
		
00:22:19 --> 00:22:20
			Why no one in a Muslim country can
		
00:22:20 --> 00:22:23
			ever have 5 minutes of rest? Every government
		
00:22:23 --> 00:22:24
			has tried to throw its own people in
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:27
			jail. Every person sees a person as a
		
00:22:27 --> 00:22:29
			potential enemy and a potential threat that they
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:31
			that they assess, you know, 10 steps before
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:34
			that person even, thinks themselves of becoming a
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:35
			threat, that they wanna take them out,
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:39
			you know, preemptively. And what is it? It's
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:41
			complete misery, and it's not the sunnah of
		
00:22:41 --> 00:22:43
			the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:44
			And, unfortunately unfortunately,
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:47
			in a manner that's very flabbergasting, and then
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:49
			it's a manner that explains to us why
		
00:22:49 --> 00:22:51
			it is that this Ummah is bereft of
		
00:22:51 --> 00:22:53
			the help that was given to the companions
		
00:22:55 --> 00:22:57
			Those people that when they took the battlefield,
		
00:22:57 --> 00:22:58
			they, you know,
		
00:23:00 --> 00:23:01
			they themselves were
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:03
			largely unlettered people
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:06
			and they took the battlefield against great and
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:09
			ancient civilizations that the Romans used to study
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:11
			the tactics of Hannibal and things like that.
		
00:23:11 --> 00:23:11
			That
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:13
			is 1000 of years old
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:16
			tradition, military tradition. The Persians had 1000 of
		
00:23:16 --> 00:23:18
			years old military tradition,
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:20
			imperial tradition that they would take the battlefield
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:22
			and the angels themselves would
		
00:23:23 --> 00:23:24
			dust them off to the side.
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:27
			Why? Because when you stand with La ilaha
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:30
			illallah Muhammadur Rasool Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam,
		
00:23:30 --> 00:23:31
			you have the you have the you have
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:34
			the iqatha of Rasool Allah sallallahu alaihi wa
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:36
			sallam with you. Allah ta'ala is with
		
00:23:37 --> 00:23:40
			you. And your, you know, the Khalifa is
		
00:23:40 --> 00:23:42
			Saidin Abu Bakr Siddiq radiAllahu anhu. And your
		
00:23:42 --> 00:23:44
			amirs Saidin Amr radiAllahu anhu. And the one
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:46
			who keeps your sir, and the one who
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:49
			keeps your honor, Saidna Uthman radiAllahu anhu. And
		
00:23:49 --> 00:23:51
			your mushad is Saidna Ali radiAllahu anhu, and
		
00:23:51 --> 00:23:52
			the one who
		
00:23:52 --> 00:23:55
			guards every baab of your castle is the
		
00:23:55 --> 00:23:58
			Ashalah Mu bashir bil Jannah, and the lashkar
		
00:23:58 --> 00:23:59
			of the of the Muhajir and Ansar are
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:01
			the ones who are are with you wherever
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:03
			you go even if you're a a a
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:05
			sole person that walks into a foreign land.
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:07
			You have the madadu from Allah with
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:10
			you wherever you go. Why did we lose
		
00:24:10 --> 00:24:10
			that madad?
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:13
			Because what? Because we don't have the
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:15
			the the the courage inside of us to
		
00:24:15 --> 00:24:17
			follow these sunnahs. We wanna do it our
		
00:24:17 --> 00:24:19
			own way because that's what's practical. Khalas, you
		
00:24:19 --> 00:24:21
			wanna do it your own way? Go ahead.
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:23
			See see how far you're gonna get. See
		
00:24:23 --> 00:24:25
			where you're gonna get. And this the the
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:27
			the the the thing I was trying to
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:28
			say is what one of the most
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:31
			brain rottingly
		
00:24:31 --> 00:24:33
			frustrating things is what
		
00:24:34 --> 00:24:36
			that explains to a person why is it
		
00:24:36 --> 00:24:37
			maybe that that madad is not there with
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:38
			us anymore
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:42
			is because people have somehow even found a
		
00:24:42 --> 00:24:44
			way to use the birth of the Prophet
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:45
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:49
			into a way to violate his sunnah in
		
00:24:49 --> 00:24:52
			the most gross and disgusting way possible.
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:56
			I remember one time some of the best
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:58
			molled bayans I've ever heard
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:02
			was when the preacher inside gives a bayan
		
00:25:02 --> 00:25:04
			about why his mooled is a bida'a. Because
		
00:25:04 --> 00:25:06
			what? If the man is sincere, if the
		
00:25:06 --> 00:25:08
			man is sincere, what will he talk about?
		
00:25:08 --> 00:25:10
			He'll talk about the favela of following the
		
00:25:10 --> 00:25:11
			sunnah of the Prophet
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:13
			And
		
00:25:14 --> 00:25:15
			some of those bayans are the best because
		
00:25:15 --> 00:25:18
			it happens on 12th of Rabi'ul Awa and
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:20
			the person speaks with such sincerity and such
		
00:25:20 --> 00:25:20
			fervor.
		
00:25:21 --> 00:25:23
			Such sincerity and such fervor and such love
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:25
			for the sunnah of the Messenger of Allah
		
00:25:26 --> 00:25:27
			we stood outside the door of the Masjid
		
00:25:27 --> 00:25:29
			with sweets just handing them out on the
		
00:25:29 --> 00:25:30
			way out to the people. No one would
		
00:25:30 --> 00:25:32
			ever know if they weren't admired in sectarian
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:34
			debates that this is any different than the
		
00:25:34 --> 00:25:36
			Bayan that's happening in the masjid down the
		
00:25:36 --> 00:25:37
			street from the person who,
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:40
			celebrates the mawlid. You don't have to follow
		
00:25:40 --> 00:25:41
			their 5th. You don't have to take Be'a
		
00:25:41 --> 00:25:42
			with them.
		
00:25:43 --> 00:25:44
			You know, you don't have to agree with
		
00:25:44 --> 00:25:46
			them whether they say hadith is sahi or
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:47
			not. But at the end of the day,
		
00:25:47 --> 00:25:49
			they're still they're still Muslims. Right?
		
00:25:50 --> 00:25:51
			And if it's like that, you know, if
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:53
			it's like that for this, maybe it's like
		
00:25:53 --> 00:25:54
			that for other stuff as well.
		
00:25:56 --> 00:25:58
			And that's my,
		
00:25:58 --> 00:25:59
			small,
		
00:25:59 --> 00:26:01
			you know, small couple of words that I
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:02
			wanted to share after
		
00:26:02 --> 00:26:05
			being subject subjected to a kind of a
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:05
			a bunch of
		
00:26:06 --> 00:26:09
			foolery and foolishness, which is unfortunately not unfortunately
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:10
			not new
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:11
			in the Ummah.
		
00:26:12 --> 00:26:14
			These are the types of controversies that that
		
00:26:14 --> 00:26:16
			people, you know, were ready to fight and
		
00:26:16 --> 00:26:17
			kill each other over
		
00:26:17 --> 00:26:19
			when the Mongols were at the gates of
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:21
			the great metropoli of Central Asia and of
		
00:26:21 --> 00:26:23
			the heartlands of Islam. And these were the
		
00:26:23 --> 00:26:25
			things that people are cussing each other out
		
00:26:25 --> 00:26:27
			over when the crusaders ran over,
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:31
			ran over our our our sacred homeland. These
		
00:26:31 --> 00:26:33
			are the things that people were arguing over
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:35
			in many places when they
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:37
			overran our,
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:39
			our sacred homeland,
		
00:26:40 --> 00:26:42
			with colonialism and all other sorts of calamities
		
00:26:42 --> 00:26:44
			that are breaking over the heads of the
		
00:26:44 --> 00:26:46
			Muslims right now. And you see those couple
		
00:26:46 --> 00:26:48
			of places where people can put aside these
		
00:26:48 --> 00:26:49
			differences, not talk talk about these types of
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:51
			things or make them a reason to fight
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:53
			or hate or kill each other, that Allah's
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:56
			help, you know, it makes idraq of them
		
00:26:56 --> 00:26:58
			also, it reaches them as well.
		
00:26:58 --> 00:27:01
			Just like Sayid Musa alayhi salam, when Banu
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:03
			Israel says, you know, that that that, Inna
		
00:27:03 --> 00:27:06
			la Mudrakoon that somehow, you know, or another,
		
00:27:06 --> 00:27:08
			you know, that's it. The jig is up.
		
00:27:08 --> 00:27:10
			The pharaoh and his hosts are gonna bear
		
00:27:10 --> 00:27:11
			down on us and we're against the sea.
		
00:27:14 --> 00:27:16
			Say hadeen that never with me is my
		
00:27:16 --> 00:27:18
			Lord. He'll guide me. He'll guide me through
		
00:27:18 --> 00:27:19
			this. He'll get us he'll show us the
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:22
			way out of this this problem. That this
		
00:27:22 --> 00:27:23
			is something you don't even have to believe
		
00:27:23 --> 00:27:26
			in anything miraculous to understand. It's very common
		
00:27:26 --> 00:27:28
			sense how a billion people forget about the
		
00:27:28 --> 00:27:30
			even if 1% of them were people who
		
00:27:30 --> 00:27:31
			at least, you know, knew how to, sit
		
00:27:31 --> 00:27:34
			with someone that they disagree with and agree
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:36
			on a common goal without falling on each
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:38
			other like a a a pack of dogs.
		
00:27:38 --> 00:27:41
			That how that's like that's really big. You
		
00:27:41 --> 00:27:43
			know? That's something that's really big. And how
		
00:27:43 --> 00:27:45
			it is that all of the Muslim major
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:46
			Muslim empires,
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:48
			they all started out with Muslims as minorities.
		
00:27:48 --> 00:27:49
			The companions
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:51
			were at one point even a minority in
		
00:27:51 --> 00:27:54
			Maqamukaram and Madinah Munawara. They were a minority
		
00:27:54 --> 00:27:57
			in the Arabian Peninsula. And Sayidna Ali
		
00:27:57 --> 00:27:59
			who would walk in the streets of Kufa,
		
00:27:59 --> 00:28:02
			majority of its population is what? Kafirs.
		
00:28:03 --> 00:28:05
			They probably walked by drunks just like you
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:07
			and me walked by drunkards in frat row.
		
00:28:07 --> 00:28:08
			You can't you know, you're not gonna do
		
00:28:08 --> 00:28:09
			anything about it because that's what their thing
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:11
			is. That's what they do. They're not you
		
00:28:11 --> 00:28:13
			know, that's their thing. But even the companions
		
00:28:13 --> 00:28:15
			used to do that, but what they commanded
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:17
			they they commanded presence because they were able
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:18
			to put these things together.
		
00:28:19 --> 00:28:20
			And maybe if we're able to put these
		
00:28:20 --> 00:28:22
			things together, not only in the asbaab, you
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:24
			know, the the the the kind of, like,
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:25
			worldly,
		
00:28:27 --> 00:28:27
			sensible
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:29
			sense that we can have some sort of
		
00:28:29 --> 00:28:31
			relevance and impact,
		
00:28:32 --> 00:28:34
			but we're saying what it's something so much
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:36
			more great than that because once you walk
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:38
			that path you receive the madad of Allah
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:38
			and His Rasul
		
00:28:40 --> 00:28:42
			and the hand of providence. Dusti Khudrat then
		
00:28:42 --> 00:28:42
			afterward
		
00:28:43 --> 00:28:45
			will will will make a way for you
		
00:28:45 --> 00:28:45
			that wasn't
		
00:28:46 --> 00:28:47
			possible through planning
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:50
			or through your own guile or your own
		
00:28:50 --> 00:28:51
			wit. Allah
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:53
			give us tawfiq and bring Islam to the
		
00:28:53 --> 00:28:54
			Umasidh Muhammad
		
00:28:56 --> 00:28:57
			and then this,
		
00:28:57 --> 00:29:00
			Mubarak gathering on this, blessed night that we
		
00:29:00 --> 00:29:02
			prayed our salah together and we read the
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:02
			pasidah,
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:04
			and that we
		
00:29:05 --> 00:29:05
			shared,
		
00:29:06 --> 00:29:09
			you know, a good hour together that Allah
		
00:29:09 --> 00:29:12
			take out whatever runj and whatever,
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:15
			heqad and whatever hatred and and whatever poison
		
00:29:15 --> 00:29:17
			that we have in our hearts for, the
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:19
			people of La ilaha illallah, and He replaced
		
00:29:19 --> 00:29:21
			it with love and He replaced it with
		
00:29:21 --> 00:29:23
			nur and whatever harm and hurt that we've
		
00:29:23 --> 00:29:24
			received from other,
		
00:29:25 --> 00:29:27
			Muslims that Allah
		
00:29:27 --> 00:29:29
			give us the ability to grow, so that
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:31
			we no longer see them as a threat
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:33
			anymore, but we see them as a
		
00:29:34 --> 00:29:35
			means
		
00:29:37 --> 00:29:38
			by which we can
		
00:29:38 --> 00:29:40
			reach the radar of Allah
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:42
			May Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala make us people
		
00:29:42 --> 00:29:45
			who make isla'in, the Umasayid Muhammad sallallahu alaihi
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:46
			wa sallam so much so that he and
		
00:29:46 --> 00:29:49
			his companions that that that gave their their
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:49
			lives
		
00:29:50 --> 00:29:52
			and that gave their their tears and that
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:54
			gave their du'as and their prayers and that
		
00:29:54 --> 00:29:56
			gave the tawaju have their heart so that
		
00:29:56 --> 00:29:59
			this deen can spread, through the earth and
		
00:29:59 --> 00:30:01
			that generation after generation that people can call
		
00:30:01 --> 00:30:03
			on Allah alone without any partner and attain
		
00:30:03 --> 00:30:05
			salvation in the hereafter. That on the day
		
00:30:05 --> 00:30:06
			of judgment that
		
00:30:07 --> 00:30:09
			we're we're from this jiu the ones that
		
00:30:09 --> 00:30:11
			they're proud of rather than the ones that
		
00:30:11 --> 00:30:12
			are an embarrassment to them.
