So the Hadith before
the Hadith we read before yesterday.
Hakim and Nesaburi,
he
narrated it in his
Musta Hajj,
he said that it's has a has a
correct and
uh-uh
trustworthy chain of narration
but Imam Bukhari and Imam Muslim didn't narrate
it. And Imam Abdul Dhabi
who is an, a imam who comes much
later and who writes a kind of a
critical,
critical commentary on the Mustadar Qiyam Haqim.
He agrees, and he doesn't agree all of
the time.
So Ibn Ibn Ishaq, the famous Muaddith and,
Aleem of the Sira, the Sira of the
Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
The knowledge of the much of it returns
to him. And Abdullah bin Abbas
also they both narrated similar
narration,
about what's probably the same incident.
And it's in the
which is a world history
written by the Hafiz ibn, Ibn Kathir,
the
So that a number of people came. They
went walked to visit Abu Talib,
and they spoke to him. And they were
the noble people of Quraysh.
And
Abu Jahal Bin Hisham
and Umayyah,
Ibn Khalaf, and Abu Sufyan, and a number
of other noblemen
of
Quresh.
And so that they said,
oh, verily you have this position of honor
amongst us that you're aware of. And, you
have and, like, this thing that you know
about has come to you, meaning you're so
sick, you're probably gonna die now. And you
know it, we know it.
And, we're all very afraid for your life.
So call him call him to us. This,
nephew of yours.
You know the problem that we have with
your nephew. So call him to us
and,
you know, take something from him, argue on
our behalf, and take something from him for
us, and take from us something
for him, argue on his behalf with us,
so that we can stop having to deal
you know, have trouble with him, and he
can also hold his hand back from giving
trouble to us.
We we can stop giving trouble to him
and he can stop giving
trouble to us. So that we can he
can leave us alone and leave our deen
alone and we can leave him alone
and
leave
his alone. And so Sayna Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi
Wasallam's Abu Talib sent for him and so
he came to Abu Talib
Abu Talib then addressed his, nephew Sallallahu Alaihi
Wasallam. He says, these people are the noblemen
of your of your of your nation,
And all of them have gathered together to
take something to give something to you or
to take something from
So that what I want from you is
one word. If you give it, you will
be the master of the Arabs, and the,
the non Arabs will,
be lowered in front of you.
He says, Abu Jahl says, I swear by
your father, I'll give you 10. If you
all you want is one word, I'll give
you 10 words.
And leave all those things that you worship
other than Allah.
So they started they raised a ruckus. They
started clapping their hands,
and raised a ruckus. And then they said,
Oh, Muhammad, do you wish to make all
of these different gods into one god?
Indeed, your affair is something very strange.
And then some of the then they said
to one another,
they said this man is not gonna give
you anything that you want,
Uh-uh,
that you ask from him. So let's go
and just
move on with our lives and tell Allah
decides between us
who's who's going to, succeed.
Then they they scattered. They all went home.
Abu Talib says to his nephew, he says,
by Allah, oh my nephew,
I don't think you asked them something like
that was excessive. What you asked them was
something very simple.
This is something that all of us should
understand. The poll of la ilaha illallah, it's
not like someone's doing you a favor. It's
common sense, essentially.
There's nothing there's nothing, like, excessive about it.
It's something very natural.
Then the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, he
became he became
motivated
when he heard his uncle say something positive
about Islam, that asking for
wasn't too much.
And then he said, it made him say,
what? Oh, my oh, my uncle.
Why don't you 2 also say it? Say
so that Allah will make it permissible for
me to intercede on your behalf on the
day of judgment.
So what happens is Abu Abu Abu Talib
refer replies to him. He says, oh my
nephew,
if it wasn't that I was afraid of
Quresh,
cursing you even more and cursing your our
clan even more,
after I die. And if I wasn't that
I was afraid that Paresh would say that
he didn't say it for any reason except
for he was afraid to die, I would
have say said it. And if I did
said it,
I did say it, I would have said
it just to make you happy.
And then he mentions the rest of the
hadith like was mentioned yesterday. And this is
another
couple of lessons. 1 is Allah ta'ala, he
reveals on the occasion of the prophet Sallallahu
Alaihi Wasallam's
grief at Abu Talib not accepting Islam
Verily, you do not guide who you wish,
rather Allah guides whoever he wants to, and
He has more knowledge about the ones He
guides.
It's not your decision or my decision. Some
people get too invested in these things. Your
job and my job is just to deliver
the message. The rest of it is Allah
Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. Don't say he was a
good person. He should have been Muslim. Allah
is the one who decides who's a good
person, who's not. The good person is the
one who receives La ilaha illallah, and the
one who doesn't receive it, yomotiamah, that's the
person who's not a good person. Your opinion,
my opinion doesn't matter because nobody made us
a judge. The second thing is why did
Abu Talib not say La ilaha illallah?
Because he was afraid of what other people
would say about him. It was a type
of pride that he had that I don't
wanna look soft in front of other people.
Okay? This is the same arrogance which caused
Iblis
to not make sajdah in front of,
Sayna Adam alayhi salam when Allah commanded him
to. This is the same kibr, it's the
same arrogance that caused Abu Talib to leave
this life without saying La ilaha illallah. It
comes in a Sahih narration
that out of all of the people, because
of the help he gave to the prophet
and Nabi salallahu alayhi wasalam said out of
all of the people in Jahannam, he will
receive the lightest of punishments.
And what is his punishment is that he
will be made to wear shoes made out
of the fire, but the intensity of them
will even make his brain boil. And he
will think that he's the one who has
the worst punishment in all of jahannan
None of you will do more for Islam
than Abu Talib did, wallahi. None of you
will do more for Islam or more for
the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam than
Abu Talib did. So we should all take
a step back and be a little bit
humble and appreciate the fact that what we
receive is nothing but the the pure fable
of Allah, the pure grace of Allah. If
it wasn't for that, we wouldn't have had
it and it can still be taken away.
And we should always remember at that moment
that we feel arrogant, like we feel like
we're better than others or we're too good
to listen to somebody, to know that that's
the moment in which destinies are broken. And
that's the moment if a person can suppress
themselves, destinies are made as well. May Allah
give all of us the tawfiq not to
ruin
our our our dunya and our akhirah. And
may Allah give us the tawfiq of being
people called to Allah in the tradition of
the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa
sallam.
