Muhammad
I would first, like to thank the, Hanafiq
channel
for hosting this important program with these important
topics.
I've had a fair bit of
chop busting that has occurred
from,
people of different Madahib
asking me why am I on the Hanafiq
channel and out of the Malikiq channel.
I will submit for everybody's consideration
that I read the Shahman al Athar from
cover to cover, and I read the Hidayah
sitting on a woven straw mat
in the,
inconceivable
summer heat of,
of Lahore.
And so, whoever wants to,
compete with me on Hanafi credentials,
let them do so. But more importantly than
that, Imam Abu Hanifa is Imam Abu Hanifa,
because,
before his fiqh, because he's an imam of
'atidah.
And in our Aqidah,
we are all united. The people of guidance
are united on the,
way of the the the sunnah and the
jama'ah,
which was described by the messenger of Allah
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam as,
that path
upon which I am and my companions are.
And so in that sense, Insha'Allah, all of
us are,
all of us are welcome in the Hanafiq
channel.
I want to also express my
joy at
participating in this program.
I
from the time of, sitting the hamka, of
our
Sheikh.
Said Anwar Hussain,
who went by the pen name of Nafeez.
May
Allah
forgive him his sins and exalt his rank.
We would
sit and talk about the Nabi
and his khatun lubuwa, and it was,
something that was a considered a key part
of our,
spiritual growth and spiritual life.
And, even if a person has heard it
a thousand times before,
the beauty of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam
is such for the one who appreciates
about
him, the more it's mentioned, the more a
person loves it.
And khatmul Nabuah itself, in general and in
particular, these topics that were
discussed,
regarding the finality of the prophethood of the
prophet, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, regarding the Imam
Mahdi, regarding the,
descent of,
Saydna
before the end times. All of these things
look. We don't learn them in order to
bash other people.
The sectarian
refutations,
are a farqifaya.
They are a an, an obligation that is
fulfilled by certain specialists in, their fields on
behalf of the ummah. But that is not
the primary reason that we learn these things.
The primary reason that we study and learn
these things is what? So we can understand
something about our own deen and benefit,
from, that understanding,
ourselves.
And, in that sense, a person who has
the ilm,
of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam with
regards to the nature of his prophethood or
with regards to
the end times.
That knowledge betters you as a believer. It
increases your spirituality, and it increases your your
accolade. It increases your your
your comprehension and
ability to negotiate the deen in a rational
sense,
because this deen is a a deen that
requires a person have a has
negotiates it through rationality.
Made his Quran replete with,
exhortations
to use, rationality.
That do you not,
think through things rationally.
We sent it down as an Arabic Quran
so that you may be,
people of rationality.
And Arabic, is a a a language
uniquely suited to order
and rationality.
In a way, I think that,
much of Europe,
especially
with the descent of,
the speakers of Romance languages into vernacular,
amissus since,
the days of their education in Latin and
Greek, but that's a side side discussion we're
not gonna get into right now. So I'm
very happy whenever this, these
gatherings happen. And I pray to Allah, subhanahu
wa ta'ala,
that
all of our participation,
Mufti Javed,
Mufti Yasser of the Hanafiq channel,
and
the Qari
Ahmed Abu Wahab, who recited at the beginning,
so beautifully of this program.
And Mufti Abdul Rahman,
our old mist companion
and elder from,
England. He came and stayed with us for
a short while. And then,
I guess when
when the Qom,
plotted against him, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala took
him back not to Jannah but to England.
All of these people and all of you
who are listening at home and whoever listens
to this in recording,
in audio in part or whoever heard about
this program and is pleased that it's happening.
May Allah
accept it from all of us and make
it a reason that we're admitted to the
Shafa'ah
of the prophet, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, his
intercession.
And may he, make it a reason that
we're admitted to drink from his hold on
the day of judgment. Such a drink that
the one who drinks from it will never
thirst again.
Such a drink that the one who drinks
from it will never thirst again, and,
such a drink that will
be
inoculation from the terrors,
of that day until it delivers us to
the,
to our Maqam in Jannah by Allah's Fabbu.
Say Amin. So it's okay. You can say
Amin. And, all of us make the niya
again and again.
That, whenever called to hear about the rasul
sallallahu alaihi wasallam and to defend his khatun
nabua that all of us, will without hesitation
and without delay consider it an honor that
Allah called us and consider it an honor
that Allah
allowed
us to fulfill this call.
So with that, I was asked by Mufti
Javed to speak about
Nuzul,
Nuzul Sayna Isa alayhis salam, qabbalahir zaman,
the descent of
Christ,
Isa ibn Maryam,
before the end time. And so I'd prepared,
I'd prepared some notes about it. I'm gonna
try not to browbeat you and bore you,
by
giving excessive detail,
but try to go through the highlights Insha'Allah
because it has been a long program.
The first point I wanted to mention is
that the, the return of Saydna Isa alaihis
salam, near the end times,
by the ulama of the Ahlus Sunnah, is
considered to be established by Tawatur.
What is Tawatur? Tawatur is that mode
of narration,
which is so wide
in its transmission
that it precludes the possibility
of a piece of information being related by
mistake
or by forgetfulness,
or by conspiracy that it's impossible that,
such a wide conspiracy could have happened in
every generation from,
disparate sets of people in different disparate lands.
Why? Because it's difficult to run a conspiracy
when you don't know each other. You cannot
coordinate facts.
And this is a a sign of the
truth that the the the narrative fits together.
Because if you have, for example,
you know, 20 people who decide to lie
about something, if you take them all into
separate rooms before they can get together and
conspire,
and oftentimes, even afterward,
if you ask them what happened, all of
them will give a a different,
a different,
version of events.
Whereas for them to be all giving the
same version,
the probability is,
that they, will have to be telling the
truth and accurately describe the thing that they
that they saw or that they experienced. So
we say the intent of our, master, Christ,
Sayedna Isa Subnomeriam, and the word Christ is
merely the Greek word for messiah.
Christ, I sub namariyam, alayhis salam, for the
end times is an established tenet of the
creed of the Muslims, which is not subject
to debate.
Imam Taha'i
mentions it in his, very introductory work,
on creed,
and it is mentioned in,
almost all of the works of, Aqidah,
and it is corroborated by a number of
Sahih Hadiths as well as other Hadiths that
may not be,
considered Sahih, but they're so numerous,
in their narration that when you
conglomerate them all,
they,
they they reach the limit of, of Tawatr.
And,
Tawatr,
in this regard
is,
is mentioned by a number of, a number
of our ulema.
There's a beautiful book which,
I think was mentioned perhaps by,
by Mufti Mohammed,
and I have it right here. It's really
a book that's,
wonderful work. It's not excessively long, on the
topic, and it does a really wonderful job
proving the point. It's called the Tasrih b,
the
the clear,
the clear statement with regards to,
the Tawatr,
of the transmission
of the,
of the descent of Christ, alayhis salaam.
And it is a book written by,
it's actually compiled by Mufti Shafi, the father
of Mufti Taqi Usmani,
from the dars of his teacher, the khatamatul
hafav,
Anwar Shah Kashmiri
a man of photographic memory that,
was renowned and tested,
and could time and time again prove that,
he would look at a book
40 years ago, upwards to 40 years ago,
and be able to,
recite,
what he saw verbatim by memory.
And so he,
in his, many services, myriad services to the
Ummah of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,
He decided to take up this issue, and
the munasaba, the occasion of him taking up
this issue and going through and, you know,
listing all the hadiths
1 by
1
with regards to the
descent of Christ alayhis salaam
is,
is because of one of the, many false
claims of the aforementioned,
Mirza
Mirza Qadian,
who, was a false claimant to prophethood, but
he also claimed that he was
Christ at some point or another in, what
Mufti Abdul Rahman referred to as as his
evolution,
From, from being a
well known debater to, eventually considering himself to
be a prophet, greater than the messenger of
Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. And, Allah,
knows the falsehood of his claim.
That he mentions in order to refute this
one point that Mirza
claimed that he was Christ alaihi Islam in
his second coming. But the problem is is
that the second coming of Christ is,
described in such vivid detail in the hadith
of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, and
he fit
none of the
none of the attributes of that second coming.
And so,
part of,
part of, I guess, the mechanism that Mirza
used in order to prove,
quote, unquote, prove that he is the second
coming of Christ
was that he had to prove that Saidna
Aysa, alayhis salam, second coming is metaphorical. It's
not literal. Even though the hadith of the
prophet and the Quran itself as we'll see,
they they say they show that, actually, it's
quite literal.
And, in order to emphasize
that it has to be metaphorical,
he somewhat contrived,
an entire narrative that, Sid Naysalay Islam, ul
Riad Abila is dead
and that,
he's buried in Kashmir, which Allah knows best.
How how does someone make it from,
Baitulaham, from Bethlehem and Nazareth, and from Jerusalem
Al Quds al Sharif to Kashmir. Allah Ta'ala,
knows best about about, you know,
what inspired him to say any of those
things. But,
you know, as a service, as a sadaqa
for those people who are, being misguided
or who are fooled into thinking at least
this matter is a a legitimate difference of
opinion amongst the olamah, which it's not,
he he put together this wonderful work.
He put it together,
as a lecturer, and then, his most competent
student, Mufti Shafi, who, as Mufti Mohammed bin
Adam mentioned,
is the father of his teacher, Mufti Tati,
and at one point was the,
grand Mufti of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
Allah
protect it and guide it to something better,
and all of the Darul Islam and all
of the people of this world, Amin,
that, he compiled Mufti Shafi compiled his sheikhs,
lectures,
into a book form, and then he made
a very beautiful forward. It's very concise,
and it's very action packed in terms of
detail
with regards to the different proofs,
of,
the Hayat al Masih, the fact that Seda
Isal alayhisam is alive, that he did not
die,
commentary of the different great olema of the
different,
fields of learning, of mastery of the different
fields of Islamic learning,
and, how they corroborated this,
this, this fact.
And,
the really, the icing on top of the
cake, really, the icing on top of the
cake of that book was
the,
the importance given to it by the great
halabi Sheikh,
Abdul Fattah Abu Huddah, Allah, exalt his rank,
a a a Hanafi,
Muhadith, and Faqih,
from the great city of Halab. May Allah
liberate it from its wrongful occupiers and revive
its tradition of of of learning and of
spirituality,
after its desolation at the hands of a
brutal and barbaric people.
This, Sheikh Abdul Fattah Abu Khuddha,
he,
he he edited the Mufti Shafi's book, and
he added a number of very beneficial footnotes
in it. And, you know, if time permits,
we
will,
you
know, if time permits, we will, talk about
some of the very valuable insights that he
provides also in that book.
And so,
Mufti Shafi writes,
and quotes, in his,
in his forward to his preparation of his
sheikh's work on the topic
that Ibn, ibn al Jarir at Tabari. And
Tabari is kind of like in terms of
tafsir is kind of like a warehouse. This
is filled with all sorts of stuff, and
he'll narrate everything,
that is narrated, whether it's strong or weak,
whether it's
a solid and dependable, or whether it's something
that,
is patently made up. He'll narrate everything with
a chain of narration with the idea that
the
specialist who will read his stuff, Seer, will
be able to distinguish based on the chains
of narration,
which thing is, which thing is real and
which thing is fake.
But it's interesting that Tabari, despite narrating a
number of different,
he he mentions that, Seidnaisa alaihis salam,
will come back near the end of time.
He mentions the,
the claim of tawater for,
for that
belief,
by Abu Hayyan
al Andalusi, the author of Al Bahrul Muheet,
which is a very beautiful tafsir work for
anyone who, like, loves to dive into the
ocean of meaning of the Quran.
Al Bahrul Muheet is a really beautiful book.
And so he,
he he chooses this position and he narrates
it also from, Ibnuatiya al Gharranati
And
Abu Hayyan, is an Andalusian scholar,
Safarini, the great Hanbali scholar. So we have
a real eclectic group of people from different
disparate traditions within the,
within the Ahl Sunnah,
Safarini al Hanbali,
that he also makes mention, of
of the Tawater. Muhammad bin Ja'far Ki Thani,
who was mentioned by, Mufti Abdul Rahman in
the context of the Mahdi. And, Sheikh Abdul
Fattah has his own sheikh, Mohammed Zahid Al
Khothari, who was an adjunct to the,
last sheikh of Islam of the Ottoman Empire.
Allah
Allah, have mercy on all of them. And
of special note for our Maliki friends who
are tuning in,
Abu, Walid ibn Rushd
al Jad, the great faqih and Muhaqq of
the Maliki Madhab.
He is also mentioned as,
as having said that there's tawater on the
fact that Isa Alayhisam is going to come
back before the end of time. And I
mentioned this, not only for the general benefit
of our audience, but as a special sadaqah
to,
a a a
an an acquaintance of mine from Birmingham who
is,
raised quite a din on
social media and made a name for himself
by,
wrongfully claiming,
an aati that that really can only be
described as kufr for a person who
knows, who knows better.
And not to say that I'm making takfir,
but the aqidah itself,
of, the return of Sayyidina Isa as we'll,
we'll see. It's established so explicitly by the
Quran and so explicitly by so so many
hadith of the prophet that if a person,
knows, if and they know all of the
proofs and still deny it,
It entails,
it entails rationally. It entails disbelief,
except for the Muftis will not pronounce anathema
on a person
until or unless there's clear proof that they
do know, that a person's own lack of
intelligence or lack of learning may be an
excuse. A person may deny something is in
the Quran,
not necessarily because,
they're denying the Quran, but just because they
didn't know that it was there or they
misunderstood something. But it's important to make a
difference between these two that the belief that
Sayna Aysa
is not coming back and that he's dead
with Rehail B'Allahi,
is incompatible
with iman rationally.
And that's a separate issue whether the person
who holds
such a belief is a non Muslim or
not because that will entail a Mufti examining
why they hold that belief.
And so that's somewhat of a side matter.
But, Ubbi Al Ustani,
one of the canonical commentators on Sahih Muslim,
whose Iqma'al Iqma'al is a indispensable
work that expounds on, Qadhi Eyad's,
Iqmal Muhlim. He narrates this from,
ibn Rushd, Al Jadd,
that that this is also the position,
of ibn Rushd that
the return of Sayna his
descent from the heavens before the end of
time is, is, narrated by Tawatr, is narrated
by Tawatr.
And,
you know, this is also, not to beat
a dead horse, but,
our acquaintance from,
our acquaintance from Birmingham is very fond of
mentioning
an opinion,
that's narrated in there ought to be a
there ought to be as a a third
tier book of Malik I Fatwa,
which basically survived and transmitted to us mainly
through the Bayan and Takhsir of, Ibn Rust
al Jad,
that, it's mentioned that Saydna, Imam Malik,
considered that Saydna, Isa, alayhis salam died. And,
that book is not a a book that
is even a reliable book of Malik I
Fatwa.
The burden of proof for, the burden of
proof for establishing Akida is far greater than
the burden of proof for establishing FIP.
And so all it is is nitpicking
random narrations,
and cherry picking them and trying to kind
of make your own,
make your own conclusions,
based on cherry picking, which is important.
This is, like, an important,
you know, side thing to to remember.
Not every difference of opinion
is a difference of opinion that is respected
in the sharia. Only the one that's built
on some sort of proof and some sort
of tactic. Otherwise, people have differences, opinion about
all sorts of things. And the job of
the lay people,
you know, may
not be to do this. But the job
of the olamas is to sort through differences
of opinions and see which ones are
based on something that that that is valid,
a valid
point of interpretive
possibility,
multiplicity of possibility, which things are just mistakes
or oversights,
or plain sloppy
scholarship.
And,
you know, people have this idea that, okay.
Look. You should respect differences of opinion. Yes.
If Abu Hanifa and Malik and Shafi'i disagree
with one another, those disagreements are built on
on deep understanding,
and they're not built on
a denial of
explicit,
narration from the prophet
or the explicit wording of the book of
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. So we respect those
differences of opinion. However, the idea of respecting
differences of opinion taken to the point where,
you know, how they have, like,
they have the the these things they tried
out where, like, you can have a a
book where you pick your own ending, or
you have a movie where you pick your
own ending. For for the happy ending, go
to page 37. For the sad ending, go
to, you know, page 78.
That's not that's not how Islam works, and
that's not how the mind works. And people,
who played those types of games, eventually, they
burn out of iman themselves because,
they themselves know that they're just making it
up as they go along. And Allah ta'ala
guide us all.
A number of ulama have mentioned,
is it's mentioned that a number of ulama
have written
independent works on the topic of the Tawatur
establishing the undeniability
of the return of Said Naysa alaihis salam
in his descent from the heavens before the
end of time.
Muhammad Zahid al Kothari, who was, again mentioned,
Abdul Abin Siddiq al Ghumari,
who, in many ways, comes from a radically
different tradition,
than Kothari, but he also was a great
Muaddith and a great scholar.
He wrote on the topic, the Mauritanian Sheikh
Mohammed Habibullah Shinkiti,
who was a Maliki and a great Sheikh
in Al Azhar a Sharif. May Allah
protected from the plotting,
of the enemies of Deen.
And Shokani
the great, of Wahiri, Yemeni, Muhadith, and Hafil
of Hadith,
to name a few.
And so, this is something that the the
ulama have discussed.
However, the most,
the most,
I guess,
in-depth and detailed,
work on the topic,
before the Tasiri was written by,
or was compiled by
Hafez Kashmiri,
is Shokani's,
work on the on the topic.
And,
Shokani's
work on the topic,
I I believe it's something 20 something odd
hadith he brings in order to prove, in
order to prove the,
tawattur of the return of Christ, alaihis salam,
before the end of time. Just to give
you an idea, many,
issues of FIP, which we consider to be,
like, kinda slam dunk, open and shut,
type issues. They're proved by 1, 2, 3
hadiths. They're they're they're they're approved by just
a a very small number of hadith. It's
very rare to have something that you can
talk about, you know, 20 something hadiths speaking
about it, with some sort of accuracy.
Hafez Koshmir
brings
75. He brings 75. So it really is
a watershed work in the topic.
The ulema knew about all of the 75
hadith from from before, but it's just that
there was never a need to, I guess,
put them together in such an explicit, sense.
May Allah reward our olema for, doing this
work in order to
protect
the Khabun Nubu of the Prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam
and in order to,
in order
to explain
its manifold
beauties and its different
dimensions.
And so,
you know, we
look first from the proofs, from the Quran.
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, he mentions
in,
in his book,
in, sort of aat, 57 through 61.
He says,
He said, when the son of Mary was
put forth as an example, alayhim,
your people raised an uproar. This is addressed
to the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. And
the story about this is what is it?
There's a A verse in Suratul Anbiya,
in which Allah, Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
mentions that you and those you worship other
than Allah will be the gravel of Jahannam.
And there's an occasion in which the Messenger
of Allah Sallahu Alaihi Wasallam, he said to
the people of Quraish that there's no benefit
and there's no good in any of those
things that you worship other than
Allah. And so what happened was there was
an individual
by,
the name of Ibluzabari,
who was sitting with Al Waleed ibn Muhgira,
who was known to be one of the
great antagonists,
against the prophet
and against Islam. He was the father of
Khaled bin Walid
who accepted deen after his father passed away.
That,
this ibn Zubari,
he mentioned in front of al Warid ibn
Mookira that, look, the prophet said, you know,
that there's no good in any of the
things that you worship other than Allah.
Well, he claims that that, Isa
ibn Mariam alayhi mussalam,
is a prophet and a really good person
Quran, he should be the gravel of Jahanam
wal riyadu billah or according to his own
statement
on the other side,
that there's no good in him because he's
also worshiped,
other than Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. So it
raised an uproar.
It raised an uproar in, in the majlis
that they're so happy that now we're going
to get,
Muhammad Waliryalullah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam that we're
gonna get him today, and we're going to,
prove that, you know, somehow his argument is
deficient.
So, Allah ta'ala
revealed these verses to the prophet that when
the son of Mary was put forth as
an example,
your people raised an uproar.
They
asked, are our gods better than better or
is he?
And the point is is what? Is that
how come you revere him and how come
you,
denounce our gods?
And they're they're they're,
you know, they're
they're didn't make any mention of him except
for in dogmatic obstinacy.
Allah continues.
That he is,
none but a a slave
that we made as an example, that we
blessed and we made as an example to
Bani Israel.
And,
He's a sign for you. He's a sign
for you.
Otherwise, we have no need for Him. It's
not like He's the Son of God. If
we wish to, we could have wiped you
all out and left the world to the
angels. Angels who don't do,
silly things like deny the existence of God
or all the other, horrible crimes that we
see and we witness
in this very broken world around us. May
Allah
give us and give it healing.
And then this is this is the the
the, I guess,
the the the crown jewel,
from this discussion that I wanted to mention,
which is
falatam tarunna bihaat tabiroon hadasiratummustaqim
Allah commands the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
to tell them
that rather Saydna Isa
The reason for his mention is so that
you can know. So that you can know
and you can recognize,
the last hour.
So don't bicker about it. Don't squabble about
it. And follow me. This is a straight
path.
A number of the, salafarahu alayhi wa ta'ala,
which is mentioned by
by by Khurtubi and is mentioned by,
a a number of other Mufasirin
al Baybawi. Masha'Allah. I also read the Tafsir
al Beibawi in Darshanizami, which I don't think
many people, do anymore,
at least the first the first jib of
it. And it's a very difficult book to
read, but it's probably one of the most
technically brilliant
analyses
of the Quran,
from a rational perspective, from a linguistical perspective,
from a,
a creedal perspective, and otherwise.
That, Bailoa
says,
indeed, it is Isa alayhis salaam,
where Almunlisah,
and he is he in him is the
knowledge. In his appearance is the knowledge of
the last hour
because his appearance,
or his descent is from the major signs
of the last hour,
and, you will know that the last hour
can only come after he, comes
and because,
because he will be able to raise the
dead,
and no one can do that except for
if they're helped by the omnipotence of Allah.
And so he says that this is also
a reading of the salafaraimahu ala'ala.
Kurtubi mentions that this reading is
is narrated by, Ibn Abbas, riyallahu anhu, Abu
Huraira, riyallahu anhu, and,
then from the, Tabireen, Katada, and Malik bin
Dinar and Bahak,
That He is a sign of the last
day.
Now tell me, how can He be the
sign of the last day if He is,
wal radiadubillah, dead?
How can it be a sign of the
last day if he's not coming back? And
so the person who denies the return of
Sayyidina Isa has denied
a verse,
of the Quran.
And so we, continue,
with our analysis
of,
we we continue with our analysis of, the
the proofs of his return.
Mufti Shafi in his forward,
to,
his sheikh's,
compilation,
mentions over 100 different attributes of Christ alaihis
salam in his descent before the end of
times,
that are mentioned in these, 75 narrations, and
then he, added 25 more on top of
it that are not attributed directly to the
messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, but
are narrated from the companions and from the
salaf
These include but are not limited to his
name, that his name will be Isa ibn
Maryam, not Mirza Ghulam Muhammad Qadiyani. His
titles that he will be the Masih and,
he will be Ruhullah, etcetera. His lineage that
he will be the son of Mary alayhis
salam. His physical attributes
that his, color will be,
will be, white,
with redness,
admixed in it, that his hair will be
black,
and other physical attributes,
of him,
alayhis salaam. Exactly the place where he will
descend, which was talked about by Mufti Abdul
Rahman earlier, and so there's no need to,
rehash it. When he will descend, how he
will descend,
with, beads of sweat coming off of his,
Mubarak and Munawar, and radiant forehead
like pearls,
And,
how he will contend with the Dajjal, with
the false messiah.
May Allah protect us all from his fitna.
How he will contend with yajujul majuj,
Gog and Magog.
How he will make Hajj and, where he
will take ihram from. How he will visit
the noble station of the Messenger of Allah
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. It's one of the
most
inspiring narrations in the book. Is that the
Messenger of Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, he said that
how how,
how will such an Ummah be defeated? The
beginning of which is, the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
Wasallam, the middle of which is the Imam
Mahdi,
Alaihi Salaam, and the end of which is
Christ the Messiah,
and this is that how that he'll visit
the Noble Station of the Messenger of Allah
and he will present to him greetings of
of salaam,
and that he will revoke the, permission for
jizya for the people of the book because
through his coming,
there will no longer be any
ambiguity with regards to the,
with regards to the,
validity of the,
Deen of the Nasara of the the Christians
and the the Deen of the Jews. And
again, it was mentioned, Masha'Allah, we disagree with
them about Deen, and, we keep that disagreement
civil and cordial.
But we have to be real about, you
know, who we are and what we are.
Because if you're not real about who you
are,
then you're fake, and fakeness in Islam are
not compatible.
This is the place, that he will come
down, the place where he'll slay the Dajjal.
Interestingly enough, the sheikh Muhammad Hassan will the
Dadur Rahimullah not Rahim well, Rahimullah, but he's
still alive. Allah, protect him and give him
long life
and, give him madad in speaking the Haqq,
which,
which is his sign.
He mentions that the Hadith, which are in
this,
tasari as well, they mentioned that the place
where Sayidina Isa will catch up with the
Dajjal and finally, slay him is a place
called Ludd.
And,
interestingly
enough, Ludd is actually a a a a
suburb of Tel Aviv, and it's actually where
the Ben Gurion airport is. So,
you know, I pray that Allah,
take me from the world before having to
see that day. And if we have to
see the the day that there's a visit
to the Tel Aviv airport, may Allah give
us Sabaat and give us firmness. Say, Amin.
The person shouldn't desire fitna.
Rather, a person should desire salama. And if
Allah ta'ala should test a person, then ask
Allah for His help.
If He gives it, then hard things all
hard things become easy.
It's mentioned in these Hadith, his marriage, that
he will marriage marry a woman of the
tribe of Jidam.
Truly, an honor for the sisters of the
Ummah of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,
and an honor for that tribe and an
honor for that that woman.
His the length of his life will be
mentioned.
The fact that he will bear children.
And his marriage and bearing children is also
really, it's really important. Look.
Reading the,
reading about the signs of the last day,
it's an important part of Deen, and it's
not some sort of fantasy escapism.
Why? Because the way the the the last
days are described
in, the, in the hadith of the prophet
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam are such that
those are times when
people's
their own egos will become so unchained
that,
you know, it will be like a post
truth era, which we see that happening more
and more,
daily. And every day it happens more such
that we forget about how silly it was
yesterday.
And so you'll get to the point where,
it's mentioned literally in these, again, in these
hadith. Because you're not gonna read about the
return of Sayedna
without reading about
the the the the end times. That things
are described that, for example,
men will suffice,
their sexual needs with other men, and women
will suffice their needs, sexual needs with other
women. The institution of marriage loses all meaning.
We call it marriage, but it doesn't really
mean anything anymore. It has no reason anymore
like it had in the past, neither biologically
nor socially nor,
spiritually.
And so,
it's important. It's beautiful that it's mentioned that
Sayid Nai Salaam,
who lived in this life and and and
never married,
and never,
never had a family.
And
the kind of confusion or the ambiguity that
was laid on the Christians because of that,
and because of the idea that they have
of original
sin, it still bothers them to this day
that you have, for example, a celibate priesthood
cannot who cannot live up to the vows
of celibacy
celibacy or monasticism.
And that people have this kind of weird
love hate relationship that on one side, you
have
a civilization.
I had a friend,
from a very Catholic background from,
from Guadalajara in Mex in Mexico.
And he mentioned that,
as kids, they saw that the sheets, you
know, had, like, a small slit in it,
And that,
that those are the sheets that, their grandmother
showed them that that they used to use
back in the day, the bedsheets. Why? Because
they considered the they considered the act of
making love to be so abhorrent and so
spiritually foul
that, it's only allowed only for the minimum
amount of time it takes in order to
make, to to procreate. And then afterward, a
person should immediately,
repent from it.
And this is it's it's what? It's like
a type of, like, spiritual intellectual schizophrenia. Why?
Because on the flip side, one extremism will
engender the other. So this pendulum swings to
the way to the other side,
and which,
civilization is more concerned with the Efa, with,
with chastity,
the the post Catholic
civilization or the Ummah of Sayed Muhammad sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam. And sadly, the people as
they've come further and further from their deen,
also,
they will follow, the people before them, hands
breath by hands breath until the point that
that they will go into a lizard hole
just because the people before them went into
the lizard hole. But the point is is
what? Is it there's shifa. There's a a
cure for that kind of pain and angst
that the people will have
with marriage meaning nothing and with sexuality
being completely,
like, polluted spiritually.
And with the idea that even a family
being something that a person always wonders, is
this a sin or is this something good?
No. Sayedna Isaac himself will marry him himself.
He'll have a family and it will, it
will be a shefa for the the creation
after this.
Sickness had afflicted them, in this, most basic,
building block of of civilization.
The name of his successor is mentioned. Muqad,
the place of his burial,
alayhis salaam, is mentioned, which is in the
Hujalah Mubarakah with the messenger of Allah and
with the shaykhayin Seidna Abu Bakr and Seidna
Umar
and a
number of other attributes. And the point is
that all of these attributes individually,
we don't say that all of them are
individually,
transmitted by Tawator. And so people can have
discussion about about, you know, the veracity of
the transmission of one attribute or another. But
in aggregate, the fact that this thing is
mentioned again and again and again precludes the
possibility of mistake or forgetfulness
or,
or conspiracy.
Sayedna Isa, alayhis salam, is coming back. 1
can have a discussion as to whether the
Kaaba's cover should be black or it should
be a different color. 1 can have a
discussion,
as to what the best way of making
tawaf is. 1 can have a discussion as
to what the, you know, best places to
pray your 2 rakas after the tawaf, but
no one can truly, in earnest,
suggest that the, you know, that the Kaaba
is, you know, in Crown Point, Indiana and
not in Makama Karama.
Why? Because there's just too much evidence that
comes together to corroborate that.
And,
there are people who will make claims like
Mirzad, like others. There are many people who
made false claims about, these, at the yacht
of Din, these matters that are certainly known
from Din, but they are like Quresh,
people of dogmatic,
the paradigm of which is,
the emperor and his new clothes. And we
all know,
we all know about that.
Allah Most High said in his book,
Allah Ta'ala says in, in his,
in his book insurah to Ali Imran,
and they're saying, meaning the people of Banu
Israel,
who part against Sinai, Isa, alaihis salam, that
they they're saying they're boasting that, indeed, we
killed the messiah,
Esa, the son of Mary,
alayhim, the messenger of Allah. And so, obviously,
they didn't believe he's the Messiah because they
they plotted against him, and they didn't believe
he was the messenger of Allah because they
plotted against him.
But they denied the thing that should have
been Al Haram and Hashem, so it should
have been clearer to them,
than,
the daylight sun.
Again, because of their dogmatic obstinacy and
unwillingness to
receive anything from Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala. Allah
ta'ala refutes this this, boast.
He says that they didn't kill him, and
they didn't crucify him. Rather, it was made
to seem such for them. And even those
people,
even those people who were left behind that
weren't necessarily as an antagonistic,
they disagreed with one another, about what happened.
And, they have no knowledge about it except
for following
conjecture. And, indeed, certainly, they did not kill
him. Barrafahahuullah.
They didn't kill him. Rather, Allah Ta'ala indeed
raised him, and Allah Ta'ala,
is most mighty and most wise. Now this
is really interesting. It's important to mention for
a number of reasons. There are unfortunately a
number of people who claim to be Muslims.
A
brother by the name of Ali Atayi. He
had a, a podcast,
the Madam Mook's podcast. I mentioned names not
necessarily out of an individual,
antagonism. In fact, I knew Ali Atay when
I was in MSA, and I always considered
him to be a very intelligent person. And
he really is an intelligent person,
except for, his opinions that he mentioned publicly,
with regards to,
you know, with regards
It requires that somebody,
you know, put forth a more reasonable explanation,
which is
really, again, Emperor's New Clothes level,
of clear in the Quran,
which is what?
Which is that
one of the great
arguments
that
the Banu Isla'il made against Sayedna Isa alaihis
salam being the messiah,
the redeemer that will come at the end
of time,
in order to redeem the children of Israel,
was that
he died,
and he didn't redeem the children of Israel.
And to kinda add even more,
kinda add more,
ammunition to their,
point of view.
And this is something you can you can,
you know, consult with researchers. Admittedly, this is
not my,
focus or area of expertise.
But, the biblical scholar Bart Ehrman,
who,
sometime was an apologist for Christianity, but then
later on, found that,
it's
a kind of standard,
orthodox
formulations are untenable,
in light of historical evidence.
He mentions that, actually, the rabbinic law
considers
a
a person
being killed by being hung by a tree,
which is essentially what the cruise crucification is,
that you're hung by a wooden post, that
it is the worst and most humiliating type
of death. And they said it was incompatible
with a person that God honored that that
person would be crucified in such a way
in their rabbinic law. And so we have
this idea in the and
then fallibility of prophets,
even in Islam that Allah will protect the
prophets from those things
that are considered to be, such abject humiliation
or so,
you know, disfiguring
that they will
prevent a person from even listening to what
that person has to say, which admittedly could
cruise fiction is.
And it's really interesting how the Banu Israel
that opposed,
Sayedna, he's a, and the ones who supported
him.
They were just like the Quran said, they're
in shock. They were in,
they're in doubt with regards to his affair.
And then Allah gives the wahi to the
Messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam so
many centuries later.
And he's obviously you know, the people in
the Deena are not sitting around watching Bart
Ehrman lectures on YouTube.
But AllatRaifies
this. And what did he say in his
clarification? That he they didn't they didn't crucify
him. Shubbi halahum.
He says he says he says what? He
says,
that it was made to appear as such.
Well, like in shubbi halahum.
Allah
says, indeed, Yaqinan Yaqinan with certainty with complete
certainty, they didn't kill him.
And then afterward,
the
the conjunction bal, which means rather, meaning the
previous statement is incorrect and the, it's harfat
that
grammatically
will take the same,
grammar
grammatical case as the mistake
because it replaces it. It is in opposition
to it, but it replaces it as the
truth,
the statement of truth that rectifies
what was
being dissented with previously.
No. They didn't kill him. Rather, Allah, Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala,
raised him up to him. And, courtubi Rahimu
Allah Tabarak Wa Ta'ala,
he mentions a a narration, a beautiful narration.
I won't read the Arabic just because of
lack of time because I'm gonna try to
wrap up. I think we've gone over with
our program.
But Insha'Allah, I hope to,
I hope to,
publish,
the research,
that I put into
compiling this talk, Insha'Allah. And so you can
all look forward to it,
and make dua, Insha'Allah, for Tawfiq.
That,
it's
narrated
by Ibn Abi Sheba,
with a chain of narration to Saidna Abdul
Abin Abbas
that when,
you know, things were coming down to the
wire, say, that Isa alaihi is on basically
gathered his disciples and he said,
he said, which one of you would like
to be with my companion in Jannah
and, and die in my place?
And,
the youngest amongst them, he stood up and
he said, I would like to.
And, the messenger of Allah, aasab, Nur Mariam
alayhis salaam, Christ, he he
he was silent, and then he asked the
question again
as if to allow
him to back out because he had a
full life ahead of him.
And in the pure and clean and beautiful
and fragrant
moment of meaning that can only be given
to somebody through Iman.
He said it again.
And Saidna Isa, alayhis salam, again gave him
another chance to opt out.
And then he asked the same question, and
that same young man, he,
he stood up and he said that that
that I I I I will do it.
And Sayna Aissa, alayhis salam, says, yes. It's
you. And so he sat him down, and
he cast his likeness onto the face of
this young man,
who was, who was then taken out. And
he, died in the place of Sayidna, alayhis
salam. And at that time, Sayidna, alayhis salam,
was
raised into the heavens,
in order to, in order to come back
again near the end of time. Now there
are other aqwal with regards to, with regards
to what happened.
One is that there was a Roman soldier
or or, somebody from the,
sell out from amongst the,
his companions
or, something like to that effect,
that an antagonist was actually given the appearance
of Saidna Isa, alaihis salam. The reason that
I prefer the first one is what is
that it's,
it's, unbecoming,
that the likeness, the beautiful likeness of any
of Allah's prophet should come onto a person
except for the person of righteousness.
And Allah knows best. Again, this is this
part is not a point of aqidah.
Rather we say that the aqidah is that
they didn't kill him and they didn't, crucify
him.
Rather,
Allah Ta'ala raised him up.
The final point I wanted to talk about,
insha'Allah
before wrapping up. And there's really so much
more, detail
wonderful and beautiful detail to go into, but
because of time, I I fear I've already
gone over.
The final point I wanted to talk about
is,
says in in,
he uses the same word in Surat Nisa
and in Surat Al Imran.
And he says that,
And,
then,
thereafter,
Allah,
says,
in Surat Al Ma'ida, he says, he says,
That Allah
says in this,
first,
ayah Surat Al Imran and second in the
ayah Surat Al Maidah.
He says, when Allah said, o' Isaa, indeed
I shall take you up, Inni Mutawafika.
This word Mutawafika,
keep it in mind.
I shall take you up and raise you
to me and purify you from those who
disbelieved and make,
those who followed you superior to those who
disbelieved until the day of resurrection.
Then to me, I'll, be all of your
return, and I shall judge between you and
that which you differed. And then, Allah Ta'ala,
the Most High, said in Suratul Ma'idah,
quoting Sayyidina 'Isa, alayhis salam,
that 'Isa, alayhis salam said
to Allah ta'ala, I said not to them,
meaning I didn't tell them to worship me.
I said I said not to them, except
that which you commanded me to say, to
worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord. And
I was witness over them as long as
I I was amongst them.
And when you took me up
when you took me up, talama tawafaitani.
Again, the word tawafi. Right?
This
word tawafi.
When you took me up,
then you remain the one who watched vigil
vigilantly over over them. And you are witness
over
all things.
You witness over all things. That this word
tawafi,
the meaning,
of this word,
as Qadi, Al Beiwawi writes in his tafsir,
is to,
grasp or to take possession of something completely.
It's to grasp or to take something, a
possession
of some
thing,
completely.
And,
the
one of the metaphorical meanings that's built on
top of this meaning in the speech of
the Arabs is what is to take the
soul at the time of death.
And
so,
the,
the Adiyani
religion
kind of
focuses on this one word and doggedly insists,
no. See, this is proof that he died.
Now although we will admit that the word
tawafi, one of its meanings, one of its
metaphorical meanings is to take in death.
It's not explicit. It's not,
literal, but metaphorically, it can
be used to, in the we mentioned, first
of all, the categorical
negation of him dying or being killed from
before.
We mentioned
that his
return is going to be a sign of
the the last day. We mentioned all these
hadith that mentioned that he's gonna come back.
So if you have 3 possible meanings or
4 possible meanings of what does dawafim mean.
Right? It needs to take someone completely that
Allah completely took him up, or it could
mean that Allah took him in death.
Or it can mean that Allah took him
in sleep.
And this is also, this is also
a a a a usage of the word,
that's
used in the
in the Quran.
That Allah
also,
also uses the word in order to
describe,
to describe sleep as well.
And then also the the the possible meaning
of Tawafi means also it means to fulfill
something, to give something
completely as well,
because you're taking fulfillment meaning you're giving someone
their complete right.
And, Kortubi,
he mentions that what? That the,
that Zamashiri mentions
that Mustafi ajalak, meaning that I will I
will I will give you the full measure
of your life, that these people are trying
to kill you right now. They're not gonna
be able to get to you. The rest
of your life, I will fulfill it for
you. You will receive the rest of your
life that I have
appointed to you. So you have all of
these different possibilities.
You have all these different possibilities of the
meaning.
Now a person who has
no intellect or who doesn't believe in the
Quran being a a a book that makes
sense,
that person will feel free to pick meanings,
in one part of the Quran that clash
with meanings of the other, part of the
Quran.
And the person who has an intellect will
say, look. If there's these different possibilities, I'm
going to chew the meaning of tawafiw,
which also
that he will be the sign of the
the last day, that he has to come
back. He cannot be dead.
And that Allah
said,
they didn't kill him. They'd neither crucified nor
nor did they,
kill him.
That Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala raised him up,
and that he's alive.
And
the
this what the possible
meaning of this word of tawafi is,
which is in harmony with the rest of
the Quran.
It's not only what we choose, but we
have a dameel also that you have to
choose that meaning because Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
says in his book,
Afalaatadabbaroona
Qurana.
Walokanaminindiurayillahi
lahujadu feehxtilafen
kathira
That do they not ponder over this Quran?
And do they not know that if it
was from other than Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala,
the sign of it being from other than
Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, would be that they
find
great discrepancy in it and great discord that
parts of it don't line up and match
up with others.
And so,
finally, I leave you with a narration of
Sahih Bukhari
from Saidin Abu Huraira, radiAllahu Anhu
Wa laddi nafsi biyadihi
layushikanna
It's narrated both by,
Muslim, Bukharian Muslim, and,
by Imam Ahmed amongst others.
That Abu Hurair radiallahu anhu said that the
Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam swore an
oath by the 1 by the 1 in
whose
in whose
grasp is my soul.
And why would the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam
need to
need to swear an oath? Everything he says
is the truth anyway. But because he wanted
people to draw their attention. This is a
very important point.
And again, it's
Imam Ahmed and Bukhari Muslim, both Sahihin, narrate
this.
So it's,
it's,
reality is unimpeachable,
except for by a dogmatic skeptic. Someone who
wants to insist that the emperor is wearing
very beautiful clothes, let them do so.
But, this is a proof
that's beyond reproach.
He says that,
by the one, in whose grasp is my
soul.
Indeed, verily, it is a a triple
emphatic.
Indeed, verily, you're on the cusp of something.
You're on the cusp of,
of
And he will break the cross, and he
will kill the pig,
and he will,
revoke the validity of taking a jizya, the
poll tax, from the,
Ahlul Kitab.
And when that happens, such wealth will flow
in the land that nobody will, will accept
it. And it's really interesting. Like, if if,
you know, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiyani claims that
he was Jesus, then
when did when did that happen when the
wealth flowed so much that there was nobody
to take it? In fact,
during the British occupation, there was of of
of the Indian subcontinent,
there was a type of,
indescribable
poverty that, that that existed there,
which,
inshallah, you can go research yourself if that
was a time when there was so much
wealth that nobody would take it, or was
it a time of indescribable
poverty?
And in such a time, one sajdah will
be preferable and more beloved to people than
the entire world, and that would in it.
Why? Because there'll be so much spirituality.
There'll be so much wealth. Nobody
cares about it anymore. And then people will
focus on what? They'll focus on their
and on their akhirah.
Then afterward, Abu Hurairah
said,
and recite if you wish
recite if you wish
that there is none from the Ahlul Kitab,
from the people of the book, except for
they will believe in him, before his death.
And on the day of judgment, he will
be a witness over them.
Now a couple of very brief muhavat.
One is that the narration
of,
Imam,
of Imam Ahmad and his Musnad, the narrator,
hamdu li'l, said that, I don't know
whether the,
the message of read if you like this
verse,
that there will be no one from the
People of the Book except for they will
believe in, Saydna, alayhi, sallam, before his death,
meaning before the death of Saydna, alayhi, sallam.
I don't know if Abu Hurair was saying
this from the prophet sallallahu alayhi salam or
this was him adding this,
the sentence
from his own side. It was, Mundaraj.
That's one thing. But the second thing is
whether or not Abu Huraira added this this
verse, the meaning is corroborated by the hadith
from before that. Indeed, he's gonna come back.
Now tell me, are there people from the
Anul Kitab,
alive in the dunya right now who
who believe in Alayhi Sala who don't believe
in Sayidna Alayhi Salaam. Yes. They're all you
know, the Jews seem to this day not
to believe in him.
Are there those people from the Christians whose
creed about saying that, Isa, alayhis salam, has
been rectified
such that they no longer deify him, but
they take him to be,
that they take him to be a
a prophet of Allah, and his righteous servant.
No. Still the overwhelming majority of them say
that claim that he's, the son of God.
So this meaning in the Quran has not
been fulfilled. So you cannot claim that,
that,
somebody who came in the past
was Saidna Isa Alai Salam. Allah
accept from us. Allah forgive me for whatever,
for whatever shortcoming I
had
in delivering this talk.
These are beautiful and inspirational things that,
you know, put light in the heart,
by the mention of the Ambia of Allah
and by the remembering of the iman,
and sacrifices
of of the prophets and of the companions
radiallahu anhu and their azzam, the preparation that
Allah Ta'ala and His Messenger sallahu alaihi wa
sallam gave to this Ummah in order to
withstand the difficulties of the end times. And
may Allah make us from amongst those people.
May Allah,
also guide our our our, you know, our
human,
brothers and sisters who happen to be deceived
from,
the,
false appropriations
of the, group of,
that if you're listening, listen with an open
mind.
How is it that all of these things
can kinda come together and fit in such
a beautiful,
picture?
And then you're going to, then you're going
to deny it based on what? Just
a string of of you know, like, you
have a
That's like a string of beads. It's a
string of just doubts put together in the
most improbable of fashions.
And so we're not out to kill you.
We're not out to get you. We have
bills to pay as well.
In America, unlike you in the UK,
we we don't even have free health care.
You know, we have to we we don't
get subsidization for our, houses from the council.
We don't we don't get any we have
we have bills to pay like you do.
We're not off to get you. In fact,
it would be our most sincere, love that
you come talk to us about deen.
Come to the masajid. Sit and listen to
the khutbas. Don't just come that I'm gonna
show these people what's up. Also, come with
the idea of learning. Inshallah, you can say
your peace as well.
And if you wish to make toba,
it's been a long time Mirza came in,
gone, and his,
prognosticate
patients about the end times didn't true.
And none of these descriptors and adjectives of
Sayidna,
in the Quran or in the hadith of
the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, none of
them came true for him. It's been a
while. It's been a long time. It's okay
if you come back. Come into the masjid
and say, la ilaha illallah Muhammadur Rasulullah
salallahu alayhi wa sallam. You already pray 5
times a day. You already fast in the
month of Ramadan.
We'll greet you with open arms. We have
no,
we have no, animus against you, in that
in that in that way and in that
respect. And nobody will do so except for
the one who Allah gave Tawfiq and the
person who wants to be a, obstinate and,
a a dogmatic squabbler, who just wants to
insist that the emperor is wearing beautiful clothes.
Such people are also talked about in the
Quran, and it's not a good path to,
to go down.
Allah. Allah. May Allah show us the the
the Haqq as Haqq and,
and give us, that Haqq as provision that
we should be able to submit ourselves in
front of it and obey it and show
us falsehood as falsehood and give us from
our provision that we should be able to
avoid it.
Again,
There was, a question that I wanted to
post to him
about
within the delivery of his talk.
He
very
very very
eloquently he answered that question.
And just to follow on from what Sheikh
Hamza Waqbool mentioned,
we
are more than willing to,
you know, embrace people
who want to leave the
what we will very clearly say without, you
know, mincing our words, the falsehood
of Mirza Ghulam Khadiani
and his fallacious claims.
And we
really
sort of sympathize with
many of
the
people who choose to follow or have been
born into,
homes of people who follow Mirza Ghulamulkadiani,
that they haven't been exposed to the actual
truth.
And what Mirza Ghulamulkadiani
actually said, what he claimed,
and the nature of his his writings and
the nature of his prophecies.
And,
this is one of the reasons why we
see, as Sheikh Hamza mentioned,
the the the obsession with the word,
and there's a whole focus on this,
just to make the discussion center around
the, the the death the the supposed death
of Saylana Isa alaihi salam. And this is
a manner to divert attention from, Mirza Ghulaham
Kharyani,
as an individual and his character. And maybe
I'll ask Sheikh Hamza again if he can
maybe touch up on this topic as well.
Why do we see,
if maybe Sheikh Hamza from his experience can
explain why,
when,
they begin their propagation,
of their beliefs,
they almost almost always,
without exception,
start on this point
that prophet Isa, al Islam, has died. He's
passed away.
There's no this is a false belief. How
can somebody be alive in the heavens for
so many so many centuries, you know, so
many millennia?
So if you can touch upon this, why
you feel,
this is
an area which Kadianis do not want to
move away from when they start their discussions,
and why they don't call us towards
Mirza Ghul Ahmad Kaidiani himself as an individual,
and as a person who they believe to
be a proponent of the truth and an
advocate of of of the Haqq from Allah's
Look. Allah knows best what the,
heart,
conceals and what, the spiritual reality is,
inside the heart of a person who would,
for whatever curious reason,
is Naysal Islam,
is dead.
Or like, why would
that be necessary? It's very strange, actually. Even
the Nasara have this hang up that they
somehow,
you know, need to,
need to,
I guess, focus
and obsess on the death of Christ,
for their religion. In that sense, the, scholar
I mentioned, Bart Ehrman, he he says something
very instructive. He says that Christianity is not
the religion of Jesus, but it's a religion
about Jesus.
And so the thing is that if you
want to disconnect between the 2 of them,
it's one of the beautiful things about Islam.
In some sense, we have a much more,
tenable connection with the actual life of Saidna
Aysa, alayhis salam, than the Nasar addu.
And so, in that sense, you have to
kind of you, like,
you have to kill him,
at least in your narrative. In your in
your waham, you have to kill him in
order to speak over him.
And so,
that's kind of like a convenient thing, that
that that people have done with certain members
of the.
That's kind of a convenient thing that people,
have done with Sayidna 'Isa alaihi salam.
And,
you know, you have to kill him because
otherwise, how is it going to look that
you're,
you know, that your guy claimed that he
was a ESA,
when it's very clear that he's coming back.
So you have to somehow, like,
find whatever you can and obsess about and
harp about it,
in order to somehow,
cancel out the
I mean, from the point of view of
debate, the the complete untenability
of of of the claim.
And, what's in people's hearts, Allah knows best.
All I can say is that I make
du'a that Allah
protect me. Whatever sin a person does, the
punishment of which is that a person has
to obsess about
diving into such an abyss,
that I I'd be punished in such a
curious way and Alano's best.
And, just I would like to request if
Sheikh Hamza can conclude the program with a
dua,
then
will hold the
program to a conclusion.
Allah. Send your peace and blessings on our
master, Sayidna Muhammad
and keep us connected with his path. You
Allah, make us people who see the truth
and accept the truth inside of our hearts.
You Allah, protect us from the fitna's of
the end times. But if we have to
live to see those times, You Allah, give
us firmness and give us Sabaat. You Allah,
Allahu wa raba'na lata zukulu bana. O our
Lord, do not harden our hearts
after You have guided us.
And give to us
a mercy that can come only from You.
You Allah, you are the one who's the
great bestower of gifts. You Allah.
You know, Allah,
aid us,
in our
remembrance of you and in our
thankfulness and gratitude to you and then being
able to worship you beautifully.
Allahumayamuqalibal
qulloo bifabitqulu
banaaladinik.
Oh, Allah,
who's the turner of hearts,
make firm our heart on your Deen.
Oh, Allah, who is the changer of hearts,
change our hearts such that they be inclined
to your obedience.
Reward the people who put this gathering together.
You Allah, reward the people
who attended this gathering. You Allah reward our
our our honorable and noble Ulema who spoke
in this gathering. You Allah I don't know
how or why,
you let me show my face on this
day in order to speak in the Haqq
of Your Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam and I
admit that You're unworthy in front of You
and in front of the creation.
You Allah, it would have been sufficient for
an honor for me even just to attend.
You Allah, help us and give us barakah
and help in our deen and in our
dunya because we love your Prophet, salallahu alayhi
wasalam. And that when, the question of the
integrity of his Nagua is made that we
came and we showed face and we lent
an ear and we lent our eyes,
and we lent our hearts and our minds
in order to in order
to be true to the covenant and the
pledge,
to follow the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam that
every person of iman makes. You Allah, let
us,
say,
Labbeik. Let us,
be ready and let us,
be there for the service of the Prophet,
salallahu alayhi wa sallam, and to stand for
the integrity of his nubuah, alayhi salatu salam,
again and again,
tongues and that we see in our eyes
and that we hear within our,
our ears. Let us attend again and again
and take us, You Allah. When you take
us in death, take us in the moment,
that we are in tune with it, and
give us a
reuniting
with
with with with Sayna Nabis salayahu alayhi salaam,
with Sayna Nabi salayahu alayhi salaam, with all
of the prophets salayahu alayhi salaam. Give us
a drink from your home and give us
a reuniting with You, You Allah,
in Jannah that we should see You and
make us from amongst the people that the
prophet SAW
described as man habbalika' Allahi habbalahu lika'ahu.
The one who loves to meet Allah, Allah
loves to meet Him.
You Allah forgive us our sins. This is
such a such a difficult time we live
in and no one will get through it
except for the one that you helped. You
Allah, our eyes are polluted, and our ears
are polluted, and our hearts are polluted.
You Allah, cleanse them from from your mercy
and from your generosity.
Such a cleansing that it leaves behind nothing
that You're displeased with. And such a cleansing
that it's done with afiyah and with gentleness
and with riq, You Allah.
Allahu bi Aziz. Nothing is difficult for you
You Allah.
