So we jumped to the,
the chapter regarding
calling to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala,
that we started from before,
how the prophet
used to,
call toward Allah
and toward him himself as the messenger
and how the beginning of their was.
And
Allah
became ill.
A a group of men somewhere between
39
from Quresh. They, they entered upon him
and they said,
verily your nephew,
curses our gods,
and he does this and that, and he
says this and that about them.
So why don't you call him, and why
don't you,
forbid him from doing these things? Why don't
you stop him from doing these things?
So
they called him Sallallahu alaihi wasallam and he
came Sallallahu alaihi wasallam and he entered the
house
And the way everyone was sitting with Abu
Talib was that the room was full. There's
only 1 a space enough for 1 person
right next to the bed with Abu Talib.
And so Abu Jahl being the shaytan that
he was,
he he thought if the prophet
sits close to him, he might feel,
he might feel a little bit of, kindness
for him.
So he got up and sat in that
place so the prophet
couldn't sit close to him. And so the
prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam didn't find anywhere
to, sit except for far away by the
door so that he could yell back and
forth so that it's not a to reduce
the comfort of the,
the conversation.
And so what happens is that when the
messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wasallam sat in
that place, Abu Talib, his uncle says to
him, oh, my nephew,
why is your why are your people complaining
about you? And why are they saying that
you curse their gods and you say this
and that? And then all of them joined
in and started to make all their complaints
in the presence of his uncle. This is
the elder of Banu Hashim. He's He's a
living elder of Banu Hashim. They all started
making their complaints, and they they made a
lot of complaints. So when it was the
term for the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam to speak, he said, oh, my
uncle,
all I want from them is is is
that they say one one thing
And,
if they say that one thing,
the, the Arabs will will will will be
lowered in front of them, meaning they'll become
the master of the Arabs,
and the non Arabs will pay them jizya.
They'll pay them they'll pay taxes to them,
meaning that they'll come under the subject subjugation
as well.
And so it caused this disruption in the
Majlis. Him saying such a such a big
promise, it caused it, disruption in the Majlis.
And and and say and and Abu Talib
then asked him, oh my oh my nephew
sorry. So they they it caused a disruption
in the madras, and then the people said,
only one statement only one statement? Yes. Indeed.
We swear an oath by your your father.
If that's all it is that that will
stop all of this problem, we'll give you
10 statements,
in its
place. And they asked, what is it? And
Abu Talib says, my nephew, what is what
is this one statement that you want from
them? And he said, la ilaha illallah.
And so then
they they they it caused a disruption again
in the majlis and they stood up and
started dusting their clothes off as if to,
you know, just to leave like as if
this entire majlis was a waste of time
for them
And what did they say? They asked the
question has he made all the gods into
1 God?
This is something very strange to us.
And
it's said that that's the time the Surah
saw this
Ayat and
told
that that they'll understand once they taste my,
you know, what the reality of the matter
was, once they taste my wrath,
that these were revealed at that occasion.
And this was also this was narrated by,
Ibi and
Behati
and
Hakim
and and and and it was narrated by,
ibn Abi Haqqim and and,
Imam Ahmed al Assai in their chapters of
or the books of the Quran.
And,
it was,
it was narrated
by a number of other masha'ik, and he'll
talk about the other narrations later.
But, suffice to say,
the one lesson to learn from this that's
the clearest is what? Is that the prophet
sallallahu alaihi wasallam, he wasn't a rude person.
He wasn't a a a a person who
caused problems unnecessarily.
But at the same time, when it's a
matter of haqq, he had a lot of.
These are all the most respected people. These
are the people he personally respected the most
in the world. They're all gathered in 1,
one room, and his uncle is a person
who he loves and respects and who loves
him and respects him. And,
someone that if he had any way of
not disappointing him, he would have done done
so and who's done a lot for him.
But when it comes to the hap the
prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam with great dignity
and with directness, he said what he needed
to say. Okay? So don't get it confused.
There's some people say, oh, the hadith?
Yeah. So that's why I'm going to be
hard every time I I do anything. So
if, you know, everyone else in the family
wants to eat at Burger King, and I
want to eat at McDonald's, I'll say, no,
McDonald's. I'm gonna say it, and I'm gonna
that's not those are stupid things. Those are
not what we're talking about. If something's a
difference of opinion, say Amin out loud. Don't
say Amin out loud. Those are not the
things that you're supposed to be like this.
But there's a a few things, not many,
but a few things in life that are
so clear, they're clear as day and night,
you know. And you you know, the time
and place we live in will be tested
with those things, with the homosexuality
and zina and drinking and all of these
things. These are all sins in the munqaraat.
They're foul things. And maybe everyone in the
room is going to accept them. But, when
it's time to say the, a person,
you know, should remember the sunnah, the Nabi
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. This is not bad
aflak or being rude or anything to say
the and to not really fear anybody when
saying it.
And this was also the prophet
bravery in calling people toward
Allah. May Allah give us
to bring the
into our lives.
