Allah most high says in his book
that what is with Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
or what is possessed by Allah ta'ala,
is better than what you think you have
in in the dunya. And it's better than
what you think you have in the dunya,
and it lasts forever.
And it's for those who believe
and trust in their lord.
So, again, this is a a an ayah
that's being quoted or ayah that are being
quoted
in the context of those ayah that are
revealed in the book of Allah in
praise of the says that it's for those
who,
believe and trust in their lord
and those who
stay away from and abstain from
major sins and from indecency.
Right? Fahisha is anything that's
a sin characterized by excess
and a sin that's,
characterized by shameful nature.
Right? The fahasa of the private parts is
zina and sexual deviance,
and the fascia of the tongue is that
a person should use foul and excessive language.
It's for those people who believe in their
lord and trust in in in him and
and abstain from major sins and from indecency,
sins of indecency and excess.
And those people, when they
feel anger, they're quick to forgive.
And those people who,
when their lord calls on them on them,
they answer him. And those people who established
the prayer
and those people who the way they deal
with one another is through mutual consultation, through.
So these are all the all these different
of the
and this one
was this one adjective or descriptor of the
Sahaba
is so important that the entire Surah is
named after it, that they consult with one
another through shura. Even though the Nabi sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam, if there's ever anyone in
the creation of Allah ta'ala that had the
right to rule by decrees, just say something
and it's done, it would have been him
salallahu alaihi wa sallam. But everything that he
had a choice in, he would always consult
with the Sahaba radiAllahu anhu for so many
so many
benefits and so many reasons and so many,
wisdoms that we don't have time
to enumerate them all. But it's interesting to
note that the mokkaf of the ahnus sunnur
JAMA'a regarding the
regarding the election of Sayna Abu Bakr as
Siddiq radiAllahu ta'ala and who to the caliphate
is what? Because this is in the context
of the sahabah radiAllahu ta'ala and whom Allah
ta'ala is describing them.
Right? The mokhif of the isn't
that that the Nabi salallahu alayhi wa sallam
chose him. Although there are several ahadith in
which and even aat in the Quran in
which it seems there's, like, an isharah and
a non
discreet,
and a nondefinite,
pointer toward his fadrida and toward his maqam
amongst the Sahaba,
in the sense that the prophet sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam had him lead the prayer during
his illness and things like that. But saying
you lead the prayer while I'm ill isn't
the same legally as saying you become khalifa
after I'm gone.
But the mokkaf of the Ahlus Sunu Ajamah,
isn't that the prophet or Allah ta'ala
ordained that the the sayna Abu Bakr salallahu
alaihi wa sallam, one who will be Khalifa
after him. Because if that were the case,
everybody would have taken Be'al with him right
away after the prophet salallahu alaihi wa sallam
passed away. It wouldn't have been a discussion.
You either take Be'a with him and you're
a Muslim, or you don't and you're a
Kafir, and it would have been done. But
Allah left them to make the decision for
themselves,
and they made shura, the mujahideen with the
ansar, the mujahideen amongst themselves, the ansar amongst
themselves.
They all thought about it and talked about
it and came to the decision, and they
own the themselves, which
was actually in many ways better for the
ummah. I mean, that's what our aqida is.
Right?
Whatever happened is better than what could have
happened. There are people who say, oh, what
if this happened, this happened, I would've been
so happy, and blah. No. What happened is
better than what could've happened, as long as
a person is a person of imam, that's
part of our iman, is what happened is
better than what could have happened. And you
see the hikmah in it, that they chose
him, and they own the decision himself.
And during that 2 years of his, Khilafa
and the 8 years of Sayyidina Umar Khilafa
was which was in many ways an extension
of his own because he's the one who
picked Sayna Umar for them. They didn't make
much sure about that. Rather, his Khalafah, Sayna
Umar, radiAllahu, who's Khalafah is like an extension
of his. That was 10 years of very,
dynamic and turbulent and harsh times in which
people get gave great sacrifices.
And when a person
picks the decision and owes the decision themselves,
they are more willing to,
make sacrifice and more willing to,
more willing to and find ease in in
in giving more of themselves in order to
support that decision. Why? Because they own it
as their own.
And so this is, you know, something very
beautiful that Allah described the Sahaba,
as people of Shura.
And literally the first major decision they they
took after the death of the prophet sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam was a decision taken by
Shura, by consultation.
And what does mashura mean? It doesn't mean
democracy. Similar democracy in some sense,
that there's a process of decision making that
involves everybody
or involves the majority of the people. But
it's different in the sense that, umshura is
what? Is that everybody has the right to
be heard, not everyone has the right that
that they be followed.
Right? So every leader,
every person of significance in the community,
they have must be heard. You don't have
the right to block them out and not
listen to what they have to say. They
have a right to be heard properly, to
have the time given, to make their case
properly
without cutting them off, without giving them time,
or without them also abusing your time too
much by going on and on,
with something they could have summarized quicker. But
everyone has the right to be heard, and
then the flip side of the shura system
is what? Is that whoever is a leader
than above, above people who's chosen, that leader
has the right to be followed. So he
did his job by listening, and then the
the people who follow do their job by
by following. But it's very interesting. It's one
of the many
infinite miracles of the Quran
that he describes them
as people who make decision by shura. And
literally, the first major decision they take after
the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
passes from this world is a decision built
on shura, and it's a decision that we
benefit to this day. The the good benefits
in terms of spiritual benefits, material benefits, political
benefits, economic benefits. A person can talk for
a great deal of time of what the
benefit of that
that that that election and selection was by
the process of shura between the Sahaba
So
that their affair amongst them is an affair
of,
mutual consultation.
And then there are also those who they're
also described as those people who, from those
things we gave them as provision,
they spend in the path of Allah ta'ala.
And they are those people that if anyone
makes,
in their midst,
they're the first ones to stand against that
that oppression, and they're the first ones to
suppress that rebellion against Allah and
suppress that oppression.
May Allah give
us the
of of loving them and receiving some portion
of their their beautiful
and attributes that Allah mentions in his book
and mentioned in his tongue.
Right.
