All praises to Allah,
and may his peace and blessings be upon
his servant and messenger, our master, Sayedla Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. May the peace and
blessings of Allah
be upon him
and upon his noble companions
and upon his
Mubarik blessed family and progeny and upon all
of those who follow all their way until
the day of judgement.
This hadith of Sahih Muslim in which the
Rasulullah
Abu alaihi wa sallam describes
the final
phase of
existence
in this world.
It's narrated by Said Abu Luv and Amrud,
may Allah be pleased with him and his
father,
who who said that the messenger of Allah
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said
that the job will come out and
be amongst the people for 40.
Sayna Abdullah bin Amr himself says,
as a comment of truthfulness, and this
is far from the sign of the hadith
being
weak or the memory of the,
of the one giving the hadith being weak.
It's a sign of their honesty that they
were people who did not lie and didn't
make things up. He said, I don't know
if he meant by
40 40 days, 40 months or 40 years.
But the meaning of the 4 to be
covered in the hadith and the Khutla previous
inshallah and it's, posted on the Facebook page
of the masjid so you can review that.
Then he said that the messenger will be
sent by Allah to Allah. And in
will be sent by Allah to Allah. And
in
appearance, he will look like
Say the Risa alaihis salam will seek out
the dajjal and he will kill him. He
will destroy him. And then he will stay,
amongst the people in the earth for 7
years.
There will be such a 7 years that
there will not be enmity between any two
people.
Then Allah Ta'ala will send down a cool
wind,
from the direction of the north.
And no one will be left that is
touched by that wind,
that has any amount of faith inside of
their heart.
Even a mustard seed worth of faith faith
inside of their heart or goodness inside of
their heart except for that wind will take
their soul.
This is something that our, Christian friends and
neighbors refer to as the rapture.
That the ahuwal al athath,
the terror of the actual last day, will
not be witnessed by any of the believers.
Rather, as a mercy, Allah will
take them gently
before, those final moments,
precipitate.
It will be such a wind that if
one of you were to enter
into the,
as the the the a cave in the
middle of a mountain, in the heart of
a mountain, that wind would follow you into
it, and it would,
keep following you until it took your, took
your soul.
Then thereafter,
no one will be left in this world
except
The messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
Those are such people
that they have inside of
their personality
the likeness of birds.
Any slight agitation, any slight difficulty that they
have to go through, anything that they have
to have, any slight amount of patience or
bravery
or steadfastness
with regards to it,
bam, they'll be gone.
They will they will cut and run.
No weight, no gravity, no seriousness,
no substance.
And they have the
sensibility inside of them. The of
a
or the the constitution,
the character inside of them
of
wild animals. Meaning what?
Meaning if they see something that their nafs
wants, that their ego wants, that their lower
desires want, they pounce on it with their
full attention, with their full concentration,
with all of their faculty,
mentally, physically,
emotionally.
They'll just pounce on it. They don't think
about anything.
They just, hit it with their full,
with their full power. This is going to
be the description of the people who are
left. And it doesn't mean that those people
will only be there at that time.
Those people are here amongst us and they're
actually quite great in number and this quality
is actually being cultivated in people.
We actually are starting to value these qualities
amongst people.
If someone stands and sacrifices for the sake
of Allah ta'ala, we mock them as if
they're an idiot.
And if somebody,
runs away from their responsibility,
we congratulate them as if they're intelligent people.
Isn't it right? A person covets a job
that they have to do no work in,
a job that they have no responsibilities in,
but they make a lot of money. People
covet these things. This is a sign of
disgustingness.
These are what these these are the signs
that those people
are
Those people are the most evil of of
the kum. We cultivate these qualities but alhamdulillah,
it's there, it's not everybody.
Whoever wishes to take a reminder from the
words of nabua, from the words of the
messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, let
them reject these things in their heart and
let them fight these things in their heart.
And if other people wish to, make these
qualities their qualities and their cardinal virtues. Let
us not,
follow them and do the same.
Those people are described by the Messenger of
Allah salallahu alaihi wa sallam as those who
neither
consider good to be good, nor do they
consider evil to be evil or worthy of
rebuke.
Such people, Shaitan, will come to them in
the form of a man.
And such people, shaitan will come to them
in the form of a man for the
same reason that Allah Allah sends his messengers
as men. The commentator on this hadith mentioned
that a message that is going to go
to a human being is best conveyed through
a human being. And that's why the most
evil of, Iblis',
servants in this world were humans. People like
Abu Jahl, people like Faraun, etcetera.
And he will call out to them,
will you not answer my call? And they
will answer his call and say,
What what do you command us to?
And the commentators, Mulla'a Al Qari and the
Mirqatul Mafati,
as well as Qadhi Iyad and his Iqmaal.
They mentioned what?
That this
isn't shaitan coming like as if he's going
to a Halloween party with a red cape
and with red horns and red face,
and a pitchfork red pitchfork with fire all
around him saying, hey. And they're like, yeah,
we're gonna worship you. That's not that's not
how that works.
What is it? Is that they will because
all of the good people will be gone,
the people will be following their passions, their
desires, the The people will be following all
of the evil that they
wish to follow
until they tired themselves out. Now after all,
there's a reason Allah made haram things haram.
The reason that we stay away from haram
is because our rub is the rub. The
Lord is the Lord and the slave is
the slave.
The slave, it's his duty to answer just
like it's the duty of the lord to
command.
However, this is something that the fuqaha had
mentioned by the ijma'a, by the consensus without
difference of opinion that is hidden.
That all of the laws in the sharia
are there for the benefit of the creation.
There's no law in the shara of Allah
ta'ala except for you benefit from it as
well. The reason you have to follow it
is because it's our Allah's right that he
be followed
but he doesn't command to anything that's not
going to benefit
you. So now, we have these people who
are like animals. They're indulging themselves like animals.
There are even more graphic descriptions in this
hadith
with regards to how indulgent self indulgent people
will be at the end of time.
They're going to tire themselves out. You can't
have a society that runs on zinnah. You
can have a society that runs on marriage.
You can't have a society that runs on
lies. You can have a society that runs
on the truth. You can't have a society
that runs on theft. You can have a
society that runs on honest making an honest
living. They're gonna completely tire themselves out. And
when shaitan comes to them at that time
and says, will
you not answer my call?
He is going to come as a Muslim.
He is gonna come as a person who
is there to give a proposal to make
things right again.
And the people will know that what they're
doing is harmful to them, and that's when
they're going to ask him, you tell us
what to do. How can we fix this
mess that we've put ourselves in?
This is the same thing we as Muslims
this is these are like the the same
thing we as Muslims, we deal with these
things everyday.
In In many ways they're a microcosm
of what the grand
cheating and the grand tawabun, the grand
swindle that shaitaan is going to run. The
great scam that shaitaan is going to run
at the end of time. Which is what?
A small sin opens the door for a
bigger sin and a bigger sin.
The person who tries,
alcohol once will then
smoke weed, and then the person who's smoking
weed, they'll try cocaine. The person who tries
cocaine, they'll keep doing it until they run
out of money, then they're going to steal
from other people, then they'll steal from their
mother, then they'll go to jail, then they'll
kill somebody in jail, they'll do etcetera etcetera.
Shaitan takes a person along a path, along
a course. Just like the person who wishes
to learn fiqh, we first teach them and
then we teach them then we teach them
the then we teach them then we teach
them then we go through the books of
fatwa, etcetera. There's an entire curriculum that you
have to go through.
So shaitan is taking them along this curriculum.
And so what does he say to them?
He says, look, you people need deen inside
of your lives. You people are like wild
animals. You people need deen inside of your
lives.
And you've lost the path. You disconnected yourself
from Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
So these idols, if you worship them, it
will get you closer to Allah ta'ala and
the people will say, you're a genius. This
is exactly what what we need. This is
gonna solve our problems for us.
Why? Because it brings some sort of structure
and regimentation into their lives again.
All of it is badil. All of it
is angering Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, and none
of it helps them.
All of it cements and systematizes
and institutionalizes
kufr for them. That thing that was first
about indulging their desires now becomes an It
becomes a deviation of a higher order,
of abstraction.
And at that time, what what will happen
is that they will
they're,
They will have a great amount of risk.
They will have a great amount of provision.
They are not going to be poor because
of this. And it's very interesting how there
are people in the ummah
that think somehow,
Islam is going to make them a lot
of money or make them the most popular
person in school or make them beautiful or
young or happy or give them good health.
How is it gonna give any of those
things when the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam
is the one who
said,
Those people
who
received the most severe of tribulation and tests
from Allah to Allah or the prophets, and
then those who are most like them and
then those who are most like them.
No, my brothers and sisters, if you're in
health or if you're in sickness, it's a
choice of Allah. Good people get healthy and
good people get sick, bad people are healthy
and bad people are sick.
Wealth and poverty are a choice from Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala. Good people are rich and
good people are poor. Good people, evil people
are rich, evil people are poor. These are
all
they're all conditions of the dunya. They mean
very little. What's inside of your heart and
what's happening inside of your heart, that's what
means a lot. The person who's wealthy is
the person who has
purity and light and more inside of their
heart regardless of their rich or poor.
One wealth is going to seem so important
that it makes the other type of wealth
seem almost as insignificant
side note.
There's no there's no causation between 1 or
the other, much less
there's no core there's very little correlation much
less causation.
And so what happens is that these people,
they they will live and they will have
a great quantity of wealth like many of
us do.
And they will live a beautiful life, meaning
what hasad and is a great
quality of, of of life as
well, according to this material standard.
When this is established,
the trumpet will be blown.
This is
mentioned in the Quran that the Sur is
a trumpet that will be blown and it
will
cause the life of all creation to end
and then it will be blown again and
it will cause them ultimately resurrected.
The Rasul sallallahu alaihi wa sallam says then
the trumpet will be blown into.
And there is no one,
who hears it except for
This is a a a an expression of
classical Arabic
and the late is what?
The side of the neck.
So
means what?
Alright? It means
that the person their neck will bend.
And and their neck will will come up
again, meaning that people will
will cause them to be in torment. You
can imagine if a person is dizzy or
a person is
unable to control themself.
But this is, you know, they'll be writhing
in some sort of involuntary
state
and and it's going to cause all of
them die.
All of them to die.
The first person who hears the the the
sound of the the trumpet on that day
will be a man who is fixing
the,
the enclosure of his of his camels, of
his livestock.
Meaning what? There'll be normal people at that
time just like they are today.
He will
die and the people then afterward who hear,
the trumpet will die. Then Allah Ta'ala will
send down
a rain
which will be like a a light rain,
the
is is is is a light rain with
very small raindrops not with huge
like raindrops.
And that that rain will have a special
effect
that it will cause the bodies, the physical
bodies of the dead
to start to grow and develop again. And
another hadith of the prophet salallahu alaihi wa
sallam, this reign is described as something similar
in character to the the *
of a man. That it will
find, it's very interesting because now we know
literally there
are copies of the entire full complete copies
of the genome
from which you can clone a person. And
Allah knows best but this is somehow that
that person will be the body will be
made again. And then the the souls will
be made to find their bodies once more.
And the, once the bodies are prepared then
Allah will have the trumpet blown into,
by the angel once more.
And the people will, then
be resurrected and they will be looking at
one another.
And it will be said to the people,
on that day, come to your Lord. And
then the Rasulullah
alaihi wa sallam,
reads the, the words of Surat Safaat,
make them make them stop or stop them
where they are because indeed they are this
day responsible. They will be asked.
And then it will be declared, let the
people who are the people of the hellfire
be separated.
The people will ask how many,
will that quantum be of those who are
in the hellfire. And it will be set
on that day from every 1,000
999
will be the people of the hellfire.
And that is such a day that will
make,
a, a a child turn,
the hair of a child turn gray.
And that's, that Yoma, Yomah, Yomah, Yomah, Yikshafar
and Saq, that is the day that the
will be shown. Now this expression,
what does it mean?
It is an expression that is,
expression from Jahiliya,
which has to do with a pregnant she
camel, which were from the most valuable wealth
of the Arabs.
That when the pregnant she camel, when the
chukamal in late term,
dies in the womb,
they had to pull the camel out so
that it doesn't, you know, the state doesn't
kill
the camel. And so the first thing they
would stick the hand into the into the
opening and then pull. The first thing that
would come out from the camel is the
soft, the the shin, the bottom part of
of the leg. And so it became a
it became a metaphor for a
tribulation
because in such a state, both the the
baby is already dead and the mother may
also die,
and it's became a metaphor for a state
of tribulation.
This is what was mentioned by the,
Rasul Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
And there
is more discussion with regards to this idea
that out of a 1,999
people will go into the * fire.
This is something that the ulama mentioned is
something that's very grave and something that should
be taken very seriously.
And there is itself a long subsidiary discussion
with regards to it.
But because we don't have time,
we won't mention it right now except for
despite all the discussion that happens there, the
summary of the discussion that is relevant to
you and me is that the messenger of
Allah salallahu alaihi wa sallam says it's not
going to be a small thing, it's going
to be a big deal. It's something that
the day people see it, it would be
enough to make the hair of a child
turn grey. May Allah protect us on that
day. The last thing I wanted to mention
is just a very short,
2 2, very short hadith of the messenger
of
This is something that is a recapitulation of
something you mentioned before, that the last moments
will not come over
a people except for they will be the
most evil,
of God's creation.
Who who are the people that the last
day is going to be established over? The
most evil of God's creation.
And who are those people described in a
different hadith narrated by a different narrator?
They are the people who don't say Allahu
Allah.
They're the people who don't take the name
of Allah Ta'ala.
And the Ullama mentioned that this expression Allahu
Allah,
it can mean
a number of different things or it can
be taken literally.
However, all of the things that means, all
of them revolve around the dhikr of Allah
ta'ala.
Don't be from those who have abandoned Allah's
dhikr and remembrance.
Don't be from those people that passed hours
and days of heedlessness.
If you want to be a Muslim and
you want to be one of those people
who say Allah, Allah, so that you won't
be called from the most evil of God's
creation,
take time and actually say it. Whether it
be through your fast, whether it be through
your prayers, whether it be through your recitation
of the Quran, whether it be through your
teaching, whether it be through your learning, Take
time to show your slave with Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala rather than just saying Allah knows
what's in my heart. I'm a good person.
Allah give all of us so much
