analysis and the contextualization

Similarly, family law salatu salam ala Rasulillah he wanted early he
was talking to the woman Voila, it's a blessing from ALLAH SubhanA
Tality be studying the Quran together what a gift. You know,
this is one of my favorite times of the week where we can come
together and study the words of Allah subhanaw taala together.
And hamdulillah Annie, it's it's a beautiful break to just take time
away from everything else, to sit back and to soak in the
information and to soak in the ayat from the Quran. Well, that's
a big blessing. It's a big blessing that we should not take
for granted and ask a las Panatela to allow this to be a means for us
to connect closer and closer to the ies. I want to take just a
quick moment to remind this, I know the notes are very long, you
know, we're looking at 60 pages, I know that it's very difficult to
go through all of it. So what I'm doing now is I'm highlighting as
we go along. And I'm going to send you that inshallah highlighted
notes at the end those highlighted notes at the end so that at least
you can situate yourself and look at what's important as we're
discussing in the class. And of course the quiz which will become
available at the end of the class, building the letter and it is very
important for you to do for a few reasons. Number one, it's going to
bring all the information that you've studied in the Surah and
put everything together so a lot of information
It's difficult to kind of bring everything together. So if my
intention behind the quiz is for it to become a very quick, very
short summary of everything that is important in the Surah, for you
to learn the first couple of quizzes for the first couple of
solos, you're going to be able to attempt as many times as possible
so that you're able to get acquainted with the content, get
acquainted with the style, and learn from the quizzes themselves.
So take your time with insha Allah upon completing the quiz, you will
be able to get a completion certificate may Allah bless you.
So let's begin Allah Subhana Allah says in Isaiah 3233, I had 3233
and 34 Kela will hammer kalau will come up while Layli is added about
was so big, either as far these are some of the signs some of the
features of the later mechanic Quran which suggests that this
section came a little bit later, it didn't come with the beginning
of the surah. It came a little bit later from him, but it's still
early enough in or still within Mexico. And we know for sure it's
still within Mexico on because of the small features and because the
oath and because of the content and the style and the discussion,
then so Allah Subhana Allah takes an oath, what is what is taking an
oath mean? We'll discuss this a little bit more in detail when we
talk about off and noon, and other like sod which are all Mac
console, we're going to look at the oath and what they mean. But
for now, when ALLAH SubhanA, Allah takes an oath by something, it's
going to attract the attention of the reader attract the attention
of the audience, and is going to get the audience to think about
something that they can look at something that is tangible. So
Allah subhanaw taala is going to connect a metaphysical reality a
reality that is unseen, to a reality that they are able to see
and observe them. And so what does this mean? One Allah is taking an
oath by the moon and the night as it retreats and the day as it
breaks.
These are all there to assert what is to come that be Nana, Adel,
Kuba. So all of these I hope that the let me just check to make the
screen to make sure that the screen is big enough for you to
see. So here, Allah takes an oath by the moon, and the night when it
retreats, and the morning as it comes out as a breaks. And all of
this is connected to the reality that it is Jahannam * is one of
the mightiest catastrophes. So what does this mean? Simply
stated, What does it mean? It means listen to this carefully
means just as the moon in the fall when the moon is full, in a dark
night, just and in a clear sky just as clear as that moon is as
clear as that moon is. * is a clear certain reality. You will
see it just like you see the moon on a clear night clear sky in a
dark night full moon, while lady is at the bar. And also just like
the night retreats, every night will come to an end. Similarly,
the night that you're living in this darkness, this Jamelia, this
oppression and injustice that is being experienced in Mecca, will
come to an end, and what's going to happen will still be there as
well. And just like the morning eventually comes, the sunshine
eventually comes regardless of how difficult the calamities are for
you, or people of Mecca for the slaves and the women and the
children. For those who are subjected to the arrogance and
entitlement and the pride and the jealousy and the hatred and the
oppression and injustice and corrosion any other society that
too will come to an end. And what is that bright, radiant sun that
is going to shine. That is the Day of Resurrection, the day of
resurrection will be like a bright, radiant sun. Why because
that is one things will become clearer. At night it's difficult
to see. So sometimes you can be seduced by reality, things can
seem like they're not but in the hereafter on the Day of
Resurrection, everything will become clear, as clear as
sunlight. What is this come from? You know, most of them have a
student if you look at the classical diversity of poverty,
and of course will be in others you know, even earlier on quality
and we'll discuss McCarthy and the positives and negatives and more
cartel they don't mention much. But in the in the later diversity
and the contemporary discussions, the start to focus more on the
importance of custom in the Quran. Now why is that the case because
early on the Arabs kind of took the person for granted. They
understood that the oath had specific functions. And then for
someone didn't need to elaborate on the functions of the of the
oath. They kind of understood what they meant and everybody
understood what they meant. It's so basic that there was no need to
discuss kind of, okay, Kelo comma, Lily at bubbles. Okay, that's what
everybody knows, let's move on. So if you look at the deficit,
usually there's very little mentioned in this ayat, but later
on, when the person or the oath became not as familiar with the
readers of the Quran, the later readers of the Quran, that's when
clarity had to be made about how they actually work. So Allah
Spanish Allah saying it Jahannam or it could also refer to the
number 19
In some suggests, it is one of the greatest, most important stations
or biggest, most important real catastrophes of the hack, if not
best Mujahid and others say that it here refers to help. And the
understanding is that Jana should not be taken lightly. Gangnam *
is not an illusion, nor is it something that is made up. It's
not a false promise that Allah is using to intimidate people into
doing the right and avoid them wrong. It is real, it is mighty it
is catastrophic. It is for those who are like Abuja * and it
will lead and others who are arrogant, entitled mocked Allah
subhanaw taala, Mark Rasool La Silla, Salah, and of course
Jahannam is eternal, with no one entering it except through the
Accept through the justice and the mercy of Allah Subhana Allah, what
do you mean? How can somebody enter help through the justice or
through the mercy of Allah? How can help be a source of mercy?
Well, * is a source of mercy. For those who are oppressed, and
those who are experiencing injustice. Imagine the many that
were killed by tyrants and the many children that are oppressed
in the many women that are oppressed.
While most of our fina military journey will will there in the
Himalayas, to take on a healer than those who are not able to
those who can't do anything about the reality of the situation.
There's, there's so little justice in this world, very little justice
in this world, we know that the justice system is very like having
to let it works. But also there are many loopholes and many
difficult parts in our systems, they somewhat some of them work,
of course, there's got to be some form of stability, but no system
is perfect, except the system of Allah Sanatana. So whatever falls
through the cracks, whatever delusions happen in this dunya
whatever wrong people get away with Allah subhanaw taala will
eventually hold and bring everyone to account. So that is why Allah
Subhana Allah here takes an oath by the moon by the night as it
retreats in the morning, to remind us that just as clear as those
things, * is also a clear reality. Now what's amazing here
is a las Panatela actually calls * it's an Eid, now the Iranian
Bashar, it is a warning, it is a deterrent to humankind. I find
this very powerful. So for those of you who want to understand why
Allah subhanaw taala made help, here's the eye, it's very clear,
it is a deterrent to humankind. Allah Subhana Allah knows us, He
created us, and he knows he created in us, the need to be
rewarded and the need to be punished. You know, human beings
are motivated for different reasons. Some of us are easily
motivated by reward, some of us are easily motivated by
punishment. So Allah subhanaw taala, created * as a deterrent
as a deterrent. And because we're created with freewill, there will
be agents in this world that encouraged us to do good. Our
angels around us the teachers that are good the parents around us,
the prophets, the messengers, and they will be agents that point us
towards evil, progress towards evil, our own neffs right shaitan
if you think about it, bad friends, Bad company corrupts
society, unethical media, these are all things that may corrupt
us, they may corrupters. So Jahannam is there as a deterrent
to give us a reason, a constant reminder, to let go of the wrong
and to focus on the right to let go of the wrong and to focus on
the right. And we can't deny if you raise children, if you are
looking as a teacher to your to your children, you will know that
you need both punishment and reward. Imagine that ideal example
of you looking at the speed limit, but you're driving down the
highway at 170 190 200, whatever number, you know, very, very fast
speed on the highway. And you see a sign that says you could get 100
or $500 reward if you slow down. You could say to yourself, I don't
need the reward, I'm enjoying the speed very much, I'll pass. But if
you see a sign that says you, you may spend the next of your life
next, or the rest of your life in jail, if you don't maintain the
speed limit, you will definitely think twice before speeding up,
you will take it much more seriously. So same thing here.
Same thing here. Jahannam becomes that deterrent humans need
punishment, and we need reward. And it's out of the Mercy of Allah
Subhana Allah that He gave us an extra incentive Jahannam to
encourage us to avoid that which destroys us. It's like pain. You
know, pain is there. Pain is there to tell us that something is wrong
with our body. So we feel pain. And as soon as we feel pain, we
know that something is wrong. So we act, we act, same thing
Jahannam as a cognitive image in our mind constantly thinking about
it gives us a reason to act. So when I'm in a position where
there's so much temptation to do wrong, I can say to myself, it's
not worth it. Because there's Johanna. And when things get very,
very difficult. I can say to myself, I can be patient because
there's gender. So gender and gender give me hope, and give me
strength and tenacity to avoid the wrong and to do the good to avoid
the wrong and to look good. However, it's important to
acknowledge and to say that Allah subhanaw taala is still worthy of
our worship, even if * and Paradise were not created. And we
worship Allah for who he is not what he does, not only what he
does, Johanna Johanna and Jana
are important that Nikola Tesla make dua to go to Jana and to
avoid jahannam. So we can't be like those say, oh, even if
Johanna and Hal were not created, I long for you and don't care
about any of that stuff know that we have to have love and fear of
Allah subhana data, our you know, those wings that keep us afloat.
They're important, both are important. And we need to connect
Allah with Allah Subhana Allah through loving Him, and through
fearing his punishment, so we will run from his punishment towards
his love and grace and His mercy and His punishment, or his wrath
is there as a reason as an extra incentive to move us towards his
mercy and towards his Rama.
Johanna is created as a clear visible entity and a punishment
from Allah subhana Ghana, for what reason to deter us to encourage us
to do good, live and share an income and yet we're to offer to
whichever of you chooses to grow progress to take the lead or
regress lag behind and Qatada says dementia I mean coordinator but
then now we have to offer a condom if you thought it lady oh we had a
follow up female so yeah T which means putter that says how is it
determined to whoever amongst you chooses to strive towards good and
stay away from sin. So it gives you a reason to strive towards
good and to stay away from sin. If not versus dementia, I mean
coordinator cardinality measure I turned on for it Lehi woman shared
at a Karana so whatever * is there for whoever wishes to choose
to strive towards worshiping Allah, or to slow or lag behind in
worshipping it. So it's about progressing towards good or
progressing towards or progressing away lagging away from haram or
progressing towards good or progressing towards evil,
whichever you choose. So meaning Jahannam is there to help you make
the right choice to help you make the right choice. Hmm. Now what's
interesting here is Allah Subhana Allah gives you two options.
Either you're progressing or regressing. There is no staying
constant. You can say I'm comfortable where I am, I'm okay,
I'm okay here. No, either you're progressing or you're regressing.
So don't think that you're sitting there constant happy with the
situation that you're in, push yourself motivate yourself. Think
of a good coach a good coach sees the the potential in the player
sees the potential in the being and fully pushes that person
towards those limits. So you're you want to be in a healthy space
where you're just stretching yourself in your relationship with
Allah Subhana Allah and that you're growing and not being
complacent that you kind of stay back and I okay. I'm kind of
comfortable you're not push yourself push yourself with Allah
Bannatyne you got the Sooners down? Do Can you got the clear and
down challenge yourself by looking at the thing that you struggle
with and do it you're struggling with lower your gaze, focus on
that you're struggling with given sort of focus on that you're
struggling with your honesty, focus on that, wherever you're
struggling, push yourself. So don't sit back and be like, you
know, I'm good. I'm much better than others and this and that none
of that none of those excuses. Either you're progressing or
you're regressing towards Allah Subhana. So every day one of your
aims should be add something new and your connection with Allah
Subhana Allah, no, two days, you know, the, the some of the seller
used to say, if two days go for you, and they're the same and
you're a bad you've lost, you've lost. That's how they looked at
their dunya dunya. It's such a small temporary time. You don't
want to waste it on useless, non productive ambitions and goals.
You want to be ambitious. And one of my favorite hadith of an abuse
of stolen that some of the highlighter in the Surah and
herbicide and the Rasulillah Salam Rafi is hobby to a Quran. This is
in Nigeria number one and it was salam saw that his companions are
late saw some some of his companions are late. So what does
he say the cut them tend to be while you're tema become min Bader
comm ly as a community Haroon Hector, you are free to whom Allah
so you just come forward and follow me and lead those who are
behind you follow your lead. And if people continue to lag behind
Allah will allow them to lag behind from entering January. So
imagine encourage them come closer, don't stay far, don't stay
far, come closer. And this coming closer in physical space also
symbolizes coming closer with Allah Sen. So don't kind of like
sit back when when something is clear to you. This is how I should
be doing this. As soon as it's clear to you that you shouldn't be
doing that. Don't delay. Don't wait until this or with that. And
tomorrow, tomorrow, this land of dreams and imagination. That will
never happen. You see something good act upon it. Now you move
Sabu Seriola Team Rubicon right or fidelity affiliates and alphason
more than happy soon. Can we set a wonderful hyaluron there's always
in the Quran, a focus towards healthy competition, pushing
yourself out of the comfort zone, pushing yourself to do more and
more about pushing yourself to be to get out of that space, that
complacent space, Allah Subhana Allah then focuses on in 38 and 39
the idea that we are all captives of our sins, except that people
have the right so Allah says, co Lunasin vema Kasturba travina He
loves Hubballi I mean, every soul will be
detained for what it has done, except that people have the right.
So the word used here are Hina for detained. The word comes from Iran
from Rohan. And that means it's the root word that is translated
for detained here, it literally means something that is held or
captured. So for example, I use the word Iran to refer to an
amount of money that is held as a deposit. So every one of us will
be held on the day of judgment until we are judged. Accept that
people have the right that people have the right get to enter Jannah
without an account, who are the people of color have the right men
who must have been I mean, you look at the companions and the
tambourine and the move as soon as he says they say it could be so
many like there are so many options. They say it could be the
children who died before reaching Asia maturity, whether they're
Muslim or non Muslim, some say Muslim, some say non Muslim, the
strongest opinion is that it could be any children who are non Muslim
who are Muslim or non Muslim who die before the age of maturity. In
Ibis is the people who are the angels, because the angels don't
make mistakes, the angels intergender without any help,
they're not held. So children who died before the age of maturity
antigen or without any question, angels intergender, without any
questions, because they're not they're not prone to sin. It could
also be like, the hexes those who received the Mercy of Allah
subhana Tada. McCartan shares a very strange opinion here. But
we're mentioning it for the sake of discussion. He says, Those that
were created on the right of Adam, their souls were on the right of
Adam, in the realm before this one, so the realm of LS to be a
lot bigger when Allah asked all the souls of mine, not your Lord,
the ones who are on the right of Adam, they were they are the ones
who testified, and they believed and they were kind of, they were
the ones that chose Allah Subhana Allah and chose to believe, so
they were the ones on the right of Adam and a sinner. And that's why
they called us however, they mean, I don't really inclined towards
this opinion, but I'm mentioning for the sake of getting you to be
familiar with the various opinions that exist. McCarthy says that
they were. So we said that they're the ones who receive the grace on
behalf said on the part that says it hasn't and if the case and say
that they are the sincere Muslims, who will fill their covenants with
Allah Subhana Allah.
Allah Subhana Allah says, those are the ones that fulfill their
covenants in spirit rather than others.
las pantallas familia Allah when there was a little bit could have
given more ammo in the Metallica album and Ladino ufone. And beyond
the law he while a young moon and meetup while Ladino Soluna Amara
la hoobie a new song were shown on a boom, why Ahafo winners? Well,
he's saying those were the ones who fulfilled their covenant
connected what Allah told them to get connected, avoided what Allah
subhanaw taala told them to avoid they're the sincere Muslims also
the people with the right. Others say that those are the people who
receive their book with the right hand and Bucha Kitab will be a
meanie Pharaoh who wrote Rokita via they will receive the book
with the right hand, they will shout and see with encouragement
look, I've received my book, read it in the allotment only Moloch
and he said I knew this they were to come for who have you reached
out in Raleigh Ephesian mentioned earlier, this person will receive
a blessing life that is content imagine you so contended the life
itself that Allah has given you is content by itself. That's the
hyperbole here the amazement that Allah Subhana Allah is promising
for those who received the book with the right now, one of the
most beautiful opinions that stand out from me about who the people
on the right are, is actually mentioned in order to be an author
to be attributed to our class in the same co Lunasin hood because
we have been hired in our show eliminare termina Anil fugly or
Rockman doodle Kasbah figma so cool many atoma the other QSB for
whom are goon or khulumani automata Anil family for whoever
you robot who don't be, he says Al Qasim says every soul will be held
accountable will be bound for the good and evil except those who
relied on the Grace of Allah Subhana Allah without relying on
their own deeds or service to humanity service to Allah.
Everyone that thinks their own deeds will save them will be
captured by those who rely on Allah subhanho wa taala. Those are
the ones that will receive the Grace of Allah, and they will the
ones that receive His salvation entering Jannah without any
account. So for him and I really like this opinion. For him. He's
saying that those who enter Jannah are the ones or those are the
people of the Amin are the ones who constantly undermine their own
actions. So they continue to do good, they continue to the best
that they can. But we always felt what I do is never enough. How can
I do something which is temporary, to receive an eternal gift never
going to do enough to receive the Grace of Allah. So I continue to
do to express my gratitude for the gift of Allah's grace. And I know
that will not antigen through the actions in these el antigen
through the gift of Allah Subhana Allah which is the gift of mercy
and the gift of grace. So for him, I will pass him he says those are
the people of the right those are the people of the right now Allah
Subhana Allah and Surah to the ballot sorted ballot, Allah
Subhana Allah gives us the description of the people of the
rights as having a minute will take us happily minute Who are
they who are the people of the right, who are the people who have
the right he says Allah Subhana Allah says fact Quran Tada. It is
those who free a slave
Those are the ones who free slaves. Free People are bound in
debt down in slavery bound in a very difficult situation. Help
people come out of those difficult circumstances, you know, slavery
is no longer as common as it used to be. But a modern form of
slavery is somebody who's stuck in a socio economic position, someone
who's stuck in their job, someone who's stuck in a position of
oppression, someone who's stuck in a, in a world and in a country
where they don't have their basic rights, someone who's stuck as a
victim of oppression. And there are many, many examples of that in
the world. We have time for Yom Indian saga, where to give food in
the time of famine, a team and then a callback to an orphan or to
a relative, or to an orphan that is close in proximity and close in
blood, oh, miskeen and Taraba, to a person in that is in distress.
So Mecanim in the livina ammonoids, those who believe will
also be slavery and those who have, who continuously remind each
other and urge each other to persevere. What tawassul Bill
Mohammed and urge each other to be compassionate, you know, in our
dunya, our duty is so full of tension, that it's very difficult
to stay compassionate, it's very difficult to stay hopeful, it's
very difficult to stay merciful. But Allah Subhana Allah says those
who stay optimistic those who keep giving to people in distress,
those who are quick to help orphans, those who are quick to
give food to people in times of famine, those who are quick to
help others around them. And they do all of that while most
importantly above all believing in Allah and encouraging others to be
patient and having that Rachmat and encouraging others to be
wrapped and to have that Rama, those are the people have the
right, those are the people the right, and of course, it may be
helpful here. I didn't include in the notes, but I do encourage you
to read the Hadith about those who enter Jannah with a cat without
account. You know, those are the ones who don't see group players
and always Allah Rob Demeter karoun. The hadith is important,
read it and ask Allah subhanaw taala to make you among them. So
just to go back a little bit and recap. So Allah Subhana Allah is
reminding us that Johannes Israel there as a deterrent, it's there
as a reason to encourage you towards good or for those of you
who choose to regress you choose you choose you decide, either you
regress away from the sins or you regress away from the good, either
your progress towards the good or your progress towards the evil,
you decide you decide what decision you want to make. And
then here Allah's Panatela reminds us about your decisions, don't
think that they're taken to be taken lightly? No, because you're
going to be held accountable. And you're going to be bound by the
decisions you make. And everybody's going to be bound
until they're questioned and until they're held accountable, except
those that are of the right we discuss the opinions of all the
people with the right arm and we discuss this idea this is sort of
embedded which suggests these are the qualities of the people the
right make us among them. So make a note for yourself here let's do
a star here to try to embody these qualities to try to you know
manifest these qualities these qualities are here. Hopefully this
works. These qualities are here. Mmm. But las Panatela then reminds
us they are Fijian natty Anita said Luna animoji Remi, tell me
more about these people the right what are they going to be doing in
general? Imagine they're in Jannah Fijian natten and Allah doesn't
say they're in Jannah not a single region. They are in multiple
Jannette they're in multiple privileges multiple blessings. So
gardens here the plural is used to indicate that they are receiving
multiple levels of blessings multiple levels of blessings from
Allah Subhana Allah and what are they doing in Jana? Asking one
another? What are they asking about the wicked
about the wicked? So they're asking about the criminals and
what are they asking about the criminals Massa like a country
soccer How did you get there? What made you go to jahannam demand? So
let's just pause here for a second what is the word Jana literally
mean? Jen that comes from the word gin the word for gin. Let's make
this a little bit bigger. So hopefully you can see better that
it's a little bit better. I'm trying my best here I know that
the are definitely brothers and sisters. They really prefer that
we see the screen large of our interpreter sister on so I'm just
trying to balance between having all the screens as accessible as
possible. Hopefully this will help inshallah by so generally, it
comes from the word Jin, it comes from the word Jin, which means
what it refers to anything that is hidden, anything that's hidden.
And that's why if you look if you look at the Arabic language, you
will see for example that the word that the word Janeen refers to the
fetus because it's it's it's up it's not visible by the eye. The
word Jana, for example, or Juna or magenta or Jin Jun, Juna and Majan
refers to a shield which hides the person behind them. The word for
example, Jin refers to the being that is not you're not able to see
that being with your own human eyes, your own naked eyes. And
other examples like Jana itself could be a garden in dunya. The
has a great amount of trees that is covered from the top that you
cannot see it you cannot see it there's full shade inside. So Jana
is a place that is
not visible to the eye. It is a place that is completely covered
and protected and sheltered it's a place that is full of shade with
trees that shade it from all corners while by beautiful that's
linguistically what it means to them. So they are the people of
the right there Elise Jeanette, and they're asking questions and
ask asking questions. What are they asking questions about? And
usually when they're asking questions about the wicked, the
wicked what's what's the question? Masada, country soccer. How did
you get to Johanna? What did you have to do to get there Johanna?
So here we're being told this is again one of the earliest times in
the Quran, where we're talking about what is it that qualifies a
person to go to Ghana, the man and the word silica masala comfy
soccer. If you look here, the word silica the word silica literally
means to work to put the thread in the needle. So imagine or you're
struggling to put the thread in the middle. It's not an easy
thing. It requires focus. It's not a passive thing. It's an active
action. It's an active action. So this based on the language some of
the students say it suggests that going to * is not something
that just happens by chance you have to really work hard to
exclude yourself from the Mercy of Allah Subhana Allah and to receive
His justice through that kind of severe punishment is very powerful
that you have to work really hard for ALLAH SubhanA Tality excluded
from his mercy and to deal with you only through His justice the
man so what did the amorphous fluid say about this? Carl Kilby
you yes Roger will mean and in general Roger and enough this mean
fair Kula we have fallen off your karate Abdullah disobey or filter
at Ramona Bob You have to learn even further and we have learned
masala country soccer. So imagine the monsoon here say that it can
be a normal hobbies to actually read this idea and use to say that
people have the right will be asking people in Jahannam so
imagine usually you recite the I
was heavily was how will you mean so ill I was heavily mean fee Jana
to Tessa and Anil Majid me masala comfy so it's really how you
recite the Omaha tab is to say an emoji mean Matt You know dude yeah
for that into flan masala comfy soccer. So we used to actually
recite and used to insert the commentary to explain so this is
known as adding on to the Quran. To do what to explain the meaning
takes the Add to add that dimension or that layer of that
layer of of meaning. And this kind of confuses many people, you know,
sometimes what will happen is you will have a like someone who's
reciting the Quran, for example, let's go back to the ad that we
discussed about and really didn't reveal.
Though knee woman Caulerpa Tonga, Haider al Well, he didn't lira,
what you're adding to the Humann and do that. So the recite the
idea and in a different tone, they will add on to so leave him to me,
the one that I created unique, II really didn't realize I've given
him lots of wealth, ie money and privileges. So you're adding in
brackets, they're kind of in brackets. And the difference in
tone implies that it's not part of the Quran, it's your own addition
to explain and to comment on the Quran. And the companions did that
and they knew what was gonna put on and what was in addition to the
Quran, because it's just an explanation. But sometimes people
will be like, Oh, look, this guy is adding to the Quran. And he's
got to add into the Quran. So clearly the Quran is not, you
know, it's not one and it could have been additions and insertions
and deletions. No, no, it's about the tone. So you're maintaining
the Quran. But sometimes very rarely, you add on details. And
it's about the delivery imagine the hotbar or the Jumana halacha.
Or in a gathering, you're reciting, but you're adding in
those brackets, kind of like when we're looking at, it's like modern
day when you're looking at an area like this. Let's look at an eye as
an example here. Like an idea. See here, one of the ayat where there
is where there are parentheses where there are parentheses for
the sake of for the sake of
for the sake of clarification, so you know, what's the original text
and what is mentioned in parentheses. I can't find an
example now. But you have many examples in your notes sha Allah
in the Surah and others by an emoji demeanor master like a comfy
soccer so they're asking by name that people in general Jana are
asking about the people in Japan and how did you Mr. X son of Y or
daughter of for that for that? How did you get to that position? The
man so that's the opinion of Al Kilby. The opinion of the opinion
of others of poverty adds filler in the millionaire's original
America. Acrobat a Kobe him. Hello Corbin. This Elmyra can wash it
again FL coulomb had fallen in Newfoundland entered the agenda
for this way. So for this reason, which means that the people of
Jana will not communicate directly with the real gentleman, but they
will be asking the angels to communicate and to ask on the
behalf the man who will be asking on their behalf. So whether it's
the people have been asking directly the people of Jerusalem,
or what is the people of Ghana asking through the angels about
the people Jahannam we know that there's some dialogue, either
directly or indirectly about the people of Jana and the people of
Johanna. Now, what's interesting here is what's really interesting
here. And Farah, love this level of detail. He said here, there's
evidence that the people have the right may be the children, because
they don't know about sin. So they're curious to know how
somebody made it to Johanna because they're so innocent
because they're so naive. They're like, wow, some people made it to
jail and then how did they make it to jahannam What did they have to
do? So remember how we were talking about the people have the
rights and how they could be there all these different opinions? So
alpha believe this opinion was the strongest and they're the children
because they asking how did you get to Shannon? What did you have
to do?
But either way, how do you get to Allah protect us from how do we
get to Johanna masala comfy Sokka what is the response? All lemon
Nicole minimal saline. The number one reason the first reason that
is mentioned here is we were not from those who prayed and kept a
genuine connection, a consistent connection with Allah subhanho wa
taala. And remember against Salah is so important, the earliest of
Mecca and Quran and the most of Moroccan Quran keeps reinforcing
the idea that you need to have a connection with Allah, a public
one that you celebrate like everybody comes publicly and a
private one that you have between you and Allah Subhana Allah Pia,
in order for you to receive revelation to receive or to
understand revelation revelation, and to receive guidance in
understanding and implementing the revelation and just encourage us
to connect with the salah. Remember the Hadith that is
merited Babu or IRA in which he says and the good Salam says our
item no and Nana haram, we barely had you call me ever tested. We
know cooling comes Murat Halia, the founder Ohnishi rely on
Rasulillah layer coming down and he shade the oil in the new cell
lymphatic and it was Salawat hums yam Hello hidden and hotwire. If a
person has a stream in front of the door and the bait from the
stream five times a day. Do you think that person would have any
fields left in them? That people said no, you're rasool Allah. No,
no filth would remain on that person who's showering five times
a day. He says well this is like the person who's praying five
times a day taking the time to do properly Allah wipes away the sins
through them. And of course in the other Hadith was narrated by
Muslim or reported by Muslim he says the name is Salim says a
Salah to Hamas Well, Jamal Jamal Ramadan in Ramadan okay if you're
out looking for autumn maybe in Hoonah either you Tony visit Korea
the five daily prayers and the Juma to the Juma and Ramadan
Ramadan alright explanations for everything in between as long as
the major sins are avoided, so don't miss out on the ability to
have your you know your your deeds forgiven your sins forgiven your
shortcomings forgiven and the remember the Hadith which is very
important Hadith embroider. If he says Allah had already been and
obey no Amen and Muslimeen well that alone, a Salah feminine
Taraka Kapha the covenant which binds us together as a community
is the prayer. This is very important. Subhan Allah is very
important that that which differentiates us from any other
community, disbelievers and hypocrites, is our performance of
the Salah. He who abandons it out of spite against Allah and after
full knowledge of its importance, becomes a disbeliever Now, here's
an important thing though. Valid pseudonym Gemma have a big
discussion on whether the person who lets go with the salah will be
forgiven, or will they never be forgiven? And as a big long
discussion, many of them say they will not be forgiven, but the
majority of opinion is it goes back to Allah Subhana Allah is the
ultimate decide. Allah is ultimate one who makes the decision and the
look at the Hadith that has mentioned what dogmatic the motto
by Imam Malik Ibn Anas, he says, and it was salam says Hamza
Salawat Ketubot Hoon Allah Allah azza wa jal Allah Ebert five daily
prayers, Allah Subhana Allah Allah made them an obligation upon the
servants upon the humankind. Femen Jabeen la familia begin LEM up I
mean when the shaman is the is the fifth and be happy to him that
Canada we're in the lahi I don't, and you the fader will Jana. So
imagine five daily prayers, whoever, whoever does them, and
does not waste anything from them, and does not take them lightly and
does the best with them. It's a covenant it's a pact for Allah,
that they will be entered into Jannah Allah makes them a promise
that they will enter Jannah however, listen to this carefully,
while manlam yet to begin, whoever does not do them Fellay Salah were
in the law here I don't share either who ensured the hydrogen
and whoever does not perform them. This is very important. Whoever
does not perform them. There is no pact for that person with Allah.
If Allah wishes he can punish that person. And if Allah wishes, we
can admit that person to Jana, which shows
that everybody will be held accountable based on their
understanding their position. If you're born into a family, which
the Salah was important you have teaching from the very beginning,
you knew why it's important, you had knowledge and all that
law will hold you through a very different criteria, and a very
different circumstance from the one who had no knowledge from the
one who didn't know anything. So that's, again, one of the evidence
is here, that Allah Subhana Allah will hold everybody accountable,
based on everything that they had access to doesn't mean okay, I'm
ignorant, alas, that's fine, because we all have a duty to
remove in the ignorance through seeking knowledge. And we live in
a time that was so available suburban urban developer, or at
least information is so abundantly available and the basics have
already, they're so easy to understand if somebody takes that
time. So the first reason why people are excluded from Gen X,
CUDA from the Mercy of Allah, and not admitted to Gen is because
they fail to pray, they fail the five daily prayers. And this is
very important for Americans because for them, the Salah was
just a bunch of yelling, a bunch of cries, all my kind of Salah to
men debate Illa, mocha and Leah, it was just a bunch of like
rituals that had no real significance, which is important
for us to think about. We should not take the Salah and turn it
into something that we do physically, but there's lack of
substance, lack of core. What's the second reason why people make
it to jahannam? Well, I'm not gonna lie Moodle miskeen. Nor did
we feed the poor. So the earliest mechem are on here we say, or at
least the middle of MIPCOM Quran, focuses on social advocacy focuses
on feeding others, it's not just about connecting with Allah, it's
not just about the Salah, but it's about having that manifest in the
way that you behave with others. And the miskeen. Here, the word
used to refer to the poor is actually miskeen. And miskeen
comes from the word second, which means somebody who's what,
somebody who's stuck, somebody who's stuck in a socio economic
position, they're not able to get out of that position, someone who
has no ability to get out of that position. So our duty is to feed
and encourage and help and empower those who are not able to get out
of that position. And remember, this is an integral part of our
DNA, you know, helping people is not like something we do on the
side, if I have time, I'll do it. And if I don't, and it's not
something that, you know, you you, you tell others or I'm doing this
as a favor for you. No, they have a right upon you will turn on a
dime, and I hope you miskeen and what's even worse here, as we
mentioned, or as Allah Subhana Allah mentions in the Quran will
feed him what happened he said it will macaron that in your wealth,
there is a right there's a share that the person who's poor and the
person was asking and the person was deprived, they have the right
over your wealth, you're not doing them a favor, you're the one that
is receiving a favor from Allah Subhana Allah because Allah has
given you so you have to share from what Allah Subhana Allah has
given you. And that's why Islam, there are so many subtleties that
we have to think about. For example, when we're giving, we
shouldn't be giving with the upper hand part of the Arab part of the
etiquette that when we give we give with the lower hand, so I
extend my hand out like this, and the person has the upper hand to
remind that I may be the one giving you something financial,
but you're the one giving me the ability to invest in my
relationship with Allah Subhana Allah, the ability to be forgiven,
the ability to be honored, the ability to be raised, so I don't
owe you or you don't owe me, you don't owe me I'm the one who
actually owes you forgive me the opportunity to give. And one of
the first and the earliest things that the Prophet Muhammad Salam
taught. As a matter of fact, some people say that the first public
address to the people of Medina was this, you unless of Shu Salam,
wa salam or ham, but the MO bomb was a little bit alienness union
that the whole region Netta Besana Abdullah bin Salam says or people
spread peace of Jerusalem thought one of the first things they
taught in Mecca and Medina, Medina, all people say salaam to
each other, spread peace. Keep relations with one another with
your kin, provide food to the people and pray at night while the
people are sleeping, you will enter Jannah in peace as a term of
the narrator and hadith is considered site. Now there's
another beautiful Hadith in which Allah Subhana Allah has had its
policy. It's Allah Subhana Allah is speaking here. And he says on
the AMA, people will be brought to Allah Subhana Allah and Allah will
say yes to Adam is totem to care for them to 20k filter in Morocco
and Tora Bora mean, called Mr. Olympia and never stop Amaka for
learn
enough to learn and you didn't
know stuff. And now stuff Ah, my cat and mouse Tameka. logik
teniendo. So there's something here that's missing in the Hadith.
I'm adding to Nicola otologic. Tara Kandi Abdi Funan phenom tutor
mo vomica Abdi for them for them to time, which means what, which
this is, this is rearranged incorrectly. I think something's
wrong with the formatting. So we'll fix it in Charlottetown and
the final notes, but the meaning here is son of Adam, I asked you
for food, but you gave none. Reply, yeah, ALLAH my lord, how
can I feed you? When you are the one that's Lord of the universe?
He says, Did you not know that my servants so and so asked you for
food
He didn't give them Did you know that if you were to give them you
would have found
me to be present there, you would have found the blessing, you would
have found my favorite pony. So again, this is important as a
reminder, to feed to feed and to spread and spread the hair and an
episode of actually SubhanAllah. Tease Jesus something very
beautiful physically can be done a lot to bitin agile. This is after
the man who climbed the world to get water and found the dog by the
size struggling, took the water fed and give the water water to
quench the thirst and the compound is also some are we going to be
rewarded the auto sword Allah is did a reward for serving such
animals. He's also said he yes, there's that award for the service
to every living being, every being which has, you know, a liver which
has, you know, like a beating heart. Allah Subhana Allah will
reward you for every being that is alive that has a heart that's
beating, you will get a word for taking care of them you will get a
word for taking care of them while could not hold a mouse or a lien.
What's the third reason why people don't make a decision? Why people
go to jahannam well couldn't get a hold on Alpha lien which means we
used to indulge in falsehood along with others Ollivanders eight,
eight in the Hulu Malka Lena Emery Mohamed Salah lymphie Holy hem
Nana Mala Gahan mas noon Sheriff ser la Call Us Today a couldn't
educate people man who can be in Isla Qatada, Colima, Hawa Colombo,
ha ha when Hawaii Nana who were killed Kayla could not bear and
while I'm not gonna let boo guna cannot bear I'm on a napkin, math
brain is very important. This is very, very important. Even as
eight says, this means listen to this carefully. He says this means
that we used to this means that we used to indulge in falsehood,
among others, ie reiterating the words that were said by Edwin
either about the Prophet Muhammad Sal and being a magician or others
saying that he was mad, or mentally ill or a liar. Meaning
these people that lied When others lie, or they just used to go with
the flow engaging in purpose, purpose, this false talks, or we
were followers, not leaders. So these people were not thinking
critically, they were not formulating their own opinions,
they just went with the flow. So one of the reasons why people go
to jahannam is they don't think for themselves. They don't think
they just go with the flow the whole room outside when they when
others align, they align when others are laughing, they laugh
when others are mocking them up, you just go with the flow. And
this reminds us of the hadith of Khalifa and which is also salam
says that's a cool ima the Quran and so on. And so I said no and
lalamove alumna, well, I can walk through and full circle in accent
and Natsu. And to see you know, when Sal fell out of limb, which
is very interesting. And it was said that he said to have said, Do
not be a people without a will of your own saying if people around
us do well, we'll also do well. And people around us do wrong will
also do wrong. But accustom yourself to do good if people do
good, and do not behave unjustly, if they do evil. And the
commentators add here, when people do good, be a reason for that
goodness. And when people do wrong, offer a solution, offer a
way out. So this reminds us don't just be a follower. Be a leader,
do not just follow, be a leader be critical. Don't just go with the
flow swim upstream. We like the salmon be critical Think for
yourself. Well couldn't educate people beyond the deen and we
denied the Day of Judgment. And this is the most important leave
the the best reason for the last. And remember, it's not like you
have to meet all of them, you have to deny the judgment and you have
to not deny to hear often you have to not feed the poor and you have
to be arrogant and entitled and and go with the flow. You could be
one of them that takes you away from the Mercy of Allah subhanaw
taala. And I remember that this shows us and gives us a little bit
of an insight about what's happening in the in the Mexican
context, what did they used to believe in? And how did used to
behave? Many of them believe that you know, Allah is the Creator
Allah gave us life. But we're not going to go back to Allah, there
is no resurrection. So they denied the resurrection. They denied
resurrection. And look at this. Here's an example. While not all
balena method, and when I see the Halacha oh man, you know what I
mean? Pull up Hillary and Barack Obama could have been any lady
janela Kamala sheduled Marie now for either interview to ruin our
day somebody holla personal life or Ba ba ba didn't
plan.
Well, who will follow up we'll lean in Russia and India who would
allow kuliah corn till the end of Seward Sen. So they will be the
courage to argue with us forgetting that they were also
created beings that they have limitations of their own and they
say who will give us life after our bones have decayed? And the
responses on the hammer say to them, the One who created them in
the first place will be able to provide them with perfect
knowledge. And let the Jhalak administration
for either in two minutes, okay, don't Don't you see how Allah
gives you the ability to have and make fire out of the trees. So
imagine if Allah Subhana Allah can allow those trees, the wood to
come out of those trees and Allah Allah can allow the trees to
regenerate. If you see in your look around you in the trees and
the seasons.
The leaves fall and leaves come back again. So Allah Spencer is
reminding us so many examples of how Allah can revive life and sort
of clear about what makes this very clear. I asked about internal
and the National Ivana Bella Hadid in Allah and so we banana the
human being thinks, oh, I can't have my bones recollected after I
die. I know Allah Subhana Allah is capable of even reforming and
reframing your fingertips, meaning Allah is so capable, that the
thing that identifies you who you are, imagine this as a sign it's a
miracle. The thing use fingerprints to identify the
person is very, very precise. Allah can recreate each and every
finger print meaning ALLAH can create and recreate your identity
from scratch.
But the people who lived in Mecca and the machete kin they struggled
to understand this. The they said they said for example, in hitting
the head with a dunya woman, I remember Athena, there's nothing
beyond this world. There's not nothing beyond this life and we
will never be resurrected. They also said in here the Hazara
duniya mo wanna hear oh, man have no remember. Oh, see? And they
also said, you may hear Lucha tuna dunya Animoto. When I hear when I
will liquidate in the data, there's nothing beyond this world.
We die we live, we're born and others are born. And nothing
destroys us, but the passage of time. So yeah, Allah, it's not
Allah, that it's not that Allah is active is just a thing that
happens, the man, just something that happens. So they said, we
continue to do this, we continue to do those four things, until
certainty came to us until the inevitable came to us. What's the
inevitable here, your pain could mean death. So we continue to
behave in those four things and do those four things. And that's what
made us become excluded from the Mercy of Allah Gouda jahannam.
Until death came to us, until the Promise of Allah came to us, until
they're clean could also mean that their resurrection and until
certainty came to us so we became certain after death, realizing
that we have ignored and dismissed that which was real. And Allah
Subhana Allah gives us an example of this and much later revelation,
sort of the scene, all we are in and I remember I said, I mean, not
Padina while Rama was sort of almost unknown, when they come
back out of their depth, and the resurrected they will say, Woe to
us. What a shame who has raised us up Oh, Lana, it's really happening
to me. Am I really recreated? Am I really reformed? What happened?
Oh, no, the prophets and the messengers must have spoken the
truth. And what Allah has warned us what that man has warned us
about is real. So this is again, reminding us of how those people
who denied and denied revelation and denied resurrection are going
to react when it all hits them when certainty hits them, when
reality hits them, yeah, pain had to attend in your clean Fermat and
Pharaoh home chef out to share feeling on that day, they will not
be benefited at all by those who do any intercession. So no plea or
intercession will be benefit to them. And here in the early makin
or, you know, medium mectron Quran, we see that there's this
concept of Shiva are being discussed, what is what is the
Shiva I mean, Shiva decision is the act of advocating on behalf of
someone else. On the Day of Resurrection, the Quran will come
as a Shaffir the Quran was come as an intercessor. Some people may
also come on the day of resurrection to do intercession on
behalf of others. And it's important to remember that no
one's intercession will be accepted except through the
permission of Allah. The intercession generally may allow
someone in Jannah to get to a higher position or rank and allow
someone in your Hanlon to be given a lighter sentence. What's the
proof of this? Look at the Quran in surah? 2128 Yeah, algo muy
bueno de mama holophone what is Shona il le manual follow woman
machete monsoon, that no one will be able to intercede except when
Allah approves. So yes, the intercession is a manifestation of
Allah's mercy. For example, He was senators in Amman in Marathi men
you men min yet the whole Jana Bucha ferati UK thirimanne Medora,
we're in them in omega T min ja vu Linetti hackday. Hakuna Ahad zawa
is a very, very powerful Hadith. And the use of Salam is reported
to have said, among my nation are some whose intercession were able
to intercede for more than the members of the tribe of Medora.
Allowing them to enter Paradise, and among my nation are some who
will be made so big for Jahannam that they will fill one of its
corners. So imagine some people that we don't know what they've
done. Maybe there have so many secrets with Allah Subhana Allah
in terms of good that they've done private works that they've done.
Someone like Nicholas and Selim whose whole life was dedicated,
who was honored by Allah subhanaw taala will intercede, willing to
see, we know for example, Quran will intercede and they will
sentences in the Hadith which is authentic the Hadith of the Ummah,
he says or Selim says the Quran Quran if I know yet to Yama, Yama
de Shafi annuals Javi really then reciting the Quran for it will
come on the day of resurrection as an intercessor for those who
recite it. And of course, this is a very beautiful Hadith here, and
it's highlighted put a star here because it's very important and
it's talking about this idea.
And this is highlighted by Tabari in which he says after the angels
to destroy America whenever you're not sure where that was, saw the
moon on the moon, were shot where
Where should our home where we should fear a home Allah and after
they're done fair pool enter our camera I mean for you three Jimena
now UK thermal regime in German and something and enough only my
oxygen engineer and health and enough swimming pool and our
camera I mean so Nicola Abdullah they are able to AI aquifer mass
Erica comfy sofa brought to Parliament akumina mousseline what
I'm not gonna comment whiskey and whiskey we're gonna hold on our
balloon of coolant. Okay, do we omit Dean? This is very, very,
very, very important here to think about. And this is highlighted by
autobody, in which he says, The angels will do intercession the
prophets will do intercession the martyrs will do decision the
righteous people, righteous people will do intercession, some of the
believers will do intercession after everybody's done the
intercession. Allah Subhana. Allah says, I am now the Most Merciful
of the merciful and he Allah frees from hellfire more than any of the
creations have freed from hellfire. And Abdullah used to
recite this hadith to say this hadith and then after that says
that Allah subhana, Allah will ask, or the Muslims will ask where
the believers will ask or the people of general will be asking
Massa confusa. Those who find that these two gentlemen after all, the
majority of people gentlemen are released, there will be a few left
in Jahannam, who are not really known as interceding for them, not
even the Mercy of Allah subhanaw taala is enough to get them out in
that state. They will then be asked Masada, Kofi soccer, how did
you end up staying for that long? What did you do, and they will say
Lemna Coleman and mousseline, we never prayed, well, I'm not gonna
lie miskeen and we never had the poor, we're gonna hold on that
Elaine and we went with the flow or couldn't and we can, we will be
on the deal. And we denied the hereafter had to attend any
opinion until reality hit us. So this again, I would put a star
around this and think about the Subhanallah you have to really
really mess up to not receive the Mercy of Allah subhana TTAN. Now,
it's important to highlight here that we shouldn't take the Mercy
of Allah Subhana Allah for granted. For example, some people
say what God will enter Mr. Narayan and I do that Allah might
do that, or off he didn't make every afternoon that some people
say oh, we're only going to be in * for a few days anyway, at the
mercy of Allah will eventually get us out and we'll get out server
sentence and move on to enjoy a little bit of dunya a little bit
of effort on we'll move on. This is the attitude that actually
leads many people to go to China, this attitude of being entitled,
being arrogant with Allah taking Allah Subhana Allah as mercy for
granted. And it's that same attitude which actually
disqualifies you from the Mercy of Allah. So you never think that you
received the Mercy of Allah, you always know that it's there, but
you work your best thinking, I'm never on my own worthy, but
hopefully through my humility, and through the grace of Allah, which
I will never be able to deserve. I hope that he can accept a little
bit of done and shower me with his infinite mercy. So I think of
myself as infinitely flawed but I think of Allah Subhana Allah as
infinitely merciful. After all this now we've discussed the four
things that take people away from Allah's mercy and take them to
jahannam that Allah Subhana Allah says, What is the matter with
them? The man whom and the killer team are doing? Why are they still
turning away from the Quran? Why are they still turning away from
the reminder? So imagine Allah Allah has made it so clear Allah
is describing you and will even real he's describing you with
Johanna. He's describing you and your attitude. Why you're turning
away from the reminder when it comes. And McCartan here says
Katya that says that the reminder is the Quran at TED Carroll and it
dedicated nurudeen A annual Quran and the Quran and Heather Quran.
We normally demo in the final few if Allah Subhana Allah says, can
know whom almost infura thorat mele qaswarah it as if they are
spooked zebras fleeing away from a lion. Imagine Rasulullah Salah
who's coming to free them who's coming to emancipate the most
common to take care of them who says I don't want anything less
money, or I don't want anything from you. The paint him as a lion,
they paint him as
crosswalk could mean a lion. And it could also mean an archer who's
attacking a hunter. So the paint Rasulo Selim as a predator.
Instead of accepting the Rasul Selim is selfless, he is there to
empower he's there to serve. He's there to clarify, the paint him as
a predator who's attacking, who's taken advantage of people, Allah
Subhana Allah forgive us. And that shows you the power of the power
of imagery and the power of propaganda. So this shows you here
that kurage would eventually after saying that Muhammad is a magician
who is divided between people, they will also paint him as a
predator who's trying to take advantage of people in reality
this is far from the truth. You call him the most honest the most
trustworthy, never asked you for money, never cared for any
positions, never took positions, never took offers never took, you
know, offers of wealth offers a prestige offers of women didn't do
any of that continue to serve, continue to give from his own
continue to make it very clear. He's not interested in dunya. And
the examples of that are many and here you are painting him in this
way. Well, you read the khulumani minimum and you tell so forth, I'm
gonna show and we're almost done here. May Allah Subhana Allah
protect us Europe. I mean, he says Allah says here in 52, of swords
and mudeford. In fact, each and every one of them wishes that they
are to be given a pill
personal letter open and ready to read from Allah. Look at the
arrogance. For example in so in, in one of the sutras. They say
what called hula hula nosey they had the Quran when Allah Allah God
Minella. Korea now we all knew persimmon Rahmatullah Nakasendo.
Chateau Ali exclaimed, if only this Quran was revealed to one of

came to one of us that is already powerful would have been easier to
accept? It is difficult to you know, it's difficult to follow us.
You know, an orphan is difficult to follow a businessman. We also
here in Abuja and Abu Lahab, and we're, we're seniors, we're, why
are we going to follow this younger guy. So the same if it
came to a person of power, we would have accepted it. But
doesn't matter where truth comes from.
Shouldn't be the it's true, except follow. So you're not focusing on
what's true. You're focusing on what's powerful, and what's gonna
maintain your public image and what's going to reinforce your
idea, that idea that you are not to be compromised by anybody, and
you have a will of your own and the Subhanallah things that we
shouldn't be shy away from, and we should, we should shy away from
arrogance, entitlement, we should accept truth from where it comes.
Even if it comes from an enemy who criticizes we should accept truth,
wherever it comes from tonight, we should be critical, of course, but
we should accept truth and be critical of our own realities.
Hmm. So how to add a property here sites in the data some of them
come to the Prophet Muhammad Salam and say, on Muhammad, if it will
make you happy that we follow you then bring for each and every one
of us a personal address from ALLAH SubhanA data, commanding us
to follow him. You want me to follow you, I want a personal
letter from Allah. Just like Allah speaking to you will get Allah to
speak to me directly, or get Allah to send me a personal letter,
Allah is too busy to speak to me if Allah sent me a letter from
Allah. And for that patella also says, this area could refer to
them asking, ask you, Lord, to give me a personal guarantee of
salvation, and then I will follow you, Mujahid also was of the same
opinion. And some others suggested, tell your Lord to send
me a letter and that letter has a list of all the things that I've
done. And next to them, forgiven, forgiven, forgiven, forgiven, and
then I will follow you. So look at the arrogance, look at the
entitlement, and instead of saying, Okay, is it true? Does
this make sense? Is it good? Yes, except follow? No, I want a person
I want to feel important. Your Lord is speaking to you. And that
makes you important. I don't want that. I don't want I don't want
you to be my intermediary. Just like you have that connection. I
will also be a prophet, I will also be a messenger. What's so
special about you? I want to be a messenger to look at the arrogance
of how Allah to know continuing on.
And here are here are, here are the quotations. Canada. FL. Why
are they doing all this because they're undermining the literally,
the hereafter. They're belittling the hill here after they're not
taking it seriously. You don't fear Allah subhanaw taala and that
shows you that fear is important. We love Allah. But we also have to
fear the hereafter we sit you should sit with ourselves and
think about the day that we stand front of Allah subhanaw taala
Yeah, Poonamallee Haddad Kitab la hydro Sameera Tamala KB rotten
Illa so there will come a day in which we stand front of Allah
Subhana Allah and say, What is this book leaving no small no
large no major, no little thing except that it's mentioned except
that it's taken into account Kela in know that, indeed, this Quran
is a reminder. What Why is this Quran a reminder, it's a reminder
because it should, in its basics and its principles remind us of
what we already know.
It's a respond to an era that the Quran is not magic, the device
between people, the Quran is a reminder that comes to awaken our
fitrah that comes to allow us to recognize I know this, a part of
me knows this is this is right. So it's familiar it reminded because
it's familiar to you know, not every detail of the Quran is going
to be familiar, like when Allah talks about angels and yes, your
filter inclines towards believing, but there are details that are not
going to be you know, naturally intuitive, right? But most of the
Quran the basics, the principles of the Quran, the basics of our
Alfreda are intuitive. Allah is one Yeah, makes sense. Allah is
uncreated definitely makes sense. Allah is one in one alone. We all
go back to him. Yes, there's absolute justice. Yes. So the
fundamentals of our Sharia the fundamentals of our Aveda are very
intuitive. They're very intuitive and because they're part of a
fruitful, and because human beings are easily scattered and
distracted and diluted. The Quran comes to remind humans of the
reality of this world of the reality of our own natures of what
the priorities are and what should be done to syrup to survive and to
thrive. And that's why it's called it's called the reminder from
insha Allah Cara, whoever wishes will be reminded, whoever wishes
will be mindful of it. So this shows us the Quran makes it very
clear that no one will be forced. The Quran encourages it prods it
critiques it stimulates deep reflection, but it's not going to
force
Do you have to come to Allah on your own, no one is going to be
forced, like are off indeed let's to Allah and be Messiah, the
Messiah, you will not sent as a control over them. There is no
compulsion in religion, you have to make the decision on your own.
Faith is based on love. Faith is based on demand is based on a
genuine connection. No one can force you. But we can be critical
and really, really challenge you critically get you out of that
comfort zone, to challenge your own beliefs and your own
assumptions and what that's what the Quran does. That's what all of
Selim does, very, very boldly, very, very directly indirectly,
with subtlety, with love with Mercy within, you know, clear
clear asserted I had that really intimidates both mercy and love.
When I read the Quran in sha Allah, who I looked up for what I
had eluded mellifera, and no one will be able to remember, unless
Allah wills, He alone is worthy of Taqwa. And He alone is the one
who's entitled to forgive. What does this mean? It means that even
your ability to remember, even your ability to remember, will not
happen. Except if Allah wills, your ability to connect with the
Quran will not happen, except if Allah wills what does that mean?
It means like they're saying, Oh, tell your Lord to send me a
personal letter, then I'll connect. No, it's not gonna
happen. You don't come to Allah on your own terms, you come to Allah
on his terms, you don't slip into conditions with Allah subhanaw
taala. like who are you. So that is entitlement that is arrogance,
unless I can get rid of that. You don't choose to come to me on your
own terms. I choose when when you can come. So when Allah says you
don't get to choose, I get to choose how you come to me. This
means yes, Allah gave us a choice. But it's still his choice for us
to choose.
It's still his choice for us to choose, he could have not given us
a choice, you could have created us as beings, like angels that
don't have a choice, but he chose for us to have choice. Some say he
gave us a choice, and we chose to have choice, but still him giving
us the choice to choose still his choice. So again, ALLAH SubhanA,
Allah is the one who sets the parameters because he's the
creator. He's the Creator to map. And also it means it means he sets
the terms and conditions for our guidance, and we must meet them in
order to receive His guidance. And the example that I like to give
you know, when I when we teach this to younger children is
imagine you're applying to school, the school sets the conditions for
you to be admitted, you have to meet those conditions in order for
you to be admitted, the school is not going to force you to come and
you can't force yourself into the school, the school sets the
conditions you meet them. And then you're admitted, same thing with
ALLAH SubhanA. Allah is not going to he could or was not going to
force anyone to believe you decide, here are the conditions.
Here's what you need to do in order for you to receive that
guidance. You can have entitlement, you can have
arrogance, you can have ego, you can have jealousy, you can have
hatred, you need to get rid of all that to receive guidance. Ready.
Here it is. Come to Allah subhanaw taala. And when you come you're
emancipated you're free. Who Adam Taqwa He alone is worthy of you
Taqwa. Allah is the only one were the main one. We're the number one
worthy of your taqwa. And Taqwa means to protect the boundaries
that are set. And in order or doing that will allow you to
protect yourself. So Allah is the only one worthy of actually
setting boundaries for you. Why? Because he's your Creator, He
loves you more than you love yourself. He cares about you more
than you care about yourself. And he knows you more than you know
yourself. So who is more worthy of setting parameters for you, than
the one who made you, you make the phone, you tell the phone what to
do, you as the manufacturer of anything, you decide to set the
parameters and the limits, you want to make it light, it'll come
with vulnerabilities, you want to make it heavy, it'll come with
limitations. So Allah subhanaw taala designed this in a way where
for example, we love and a part of that love means that we're going
to be vulnerable. So the limitations and the
vulnerabilities are not there. Because they're there to make us
weak. No, they're there as a byproduct of other strengths. And
all the things that Allah will for us to experience that's his
choice. We have to accept that we have submitted that and only he is
worthy of those limitations being placed upon us.
Yeah, animal in itself. I want to salute only He knows the slight
glances of the eye and whatever we can seal in the hearts. He knows
everything. He knows everything. And that was interesting is even
like a theater mentions is FC Dallas in America or the line and
says Colorado soon we'll also send them heavy and I will add a taco
and another federal call Rob Bukom. Alone. And taco fella, you
Jeremiah 11. So many taco and John, Marissa Ilan. Can, an l feel
a little confused, says Allah says, Allah declared, I'm the one
most deserving of your taqwa your mindfulness, and there should be
no one worship. It's just you can't there is no one worthy of
worship besides Allah. Because he's the only one that he is the
first the last, the eternal, the Unlimited, the unbound. He is the
only one that's not contingent not dependent on anything. The one
that no one, the one that no one can escape the one that needs no
one and everyone needs. So he says here I am the one that's worthy of
your mindfulness. I am the one that's worthy of your taqwa. And
I'm the only one that's worthy of your worship. If you worship
anyone besides me, that say there's no there's no hope for
you. But whoever fears associating anyone with me, that one is
deserving of My mercy that one is deserving of my
Forgiveness. And this brings our Surah Surah 10 will defer to an
end. Let's quickly just recap as we discussed.
At the very beginning, we said that there are six phases. And I'm
going to post the notes now, with all of these highlights and all
these scribbles that show you what's important what to focus on.
What we discussed that the surah has six main phases. What are
those six main phases? The first phase is an address to the Prophet
Muhammad Salam. Yeah. And the Warburg effect, they're talking
about the importance of standing up the importance of not being
covered, not being limited by our own comfort, not be limited by our
own privileges, but standing up and teaching. So the first phase
is directly addressed. Total Salah Salem warn, warn against what
warned against the Day of Resurrection. So begin by warning
because people need to have a sense of urgency, you've already
developed a rapport with them. Now it's time to act, get up and
teach, get up and share with purpose. And here's an example of
someone who didn't believe in that their resurrection was so close
had the capacity and the luxury and the privilege and couldn't
believe but chose not to not because he didn't know what was
right or wrong. He knew what was right or wrong. But he chose to
maintain his public image and compromise choosing what is right,
because he didn't want to be seen as inferior to the rest of the
elite or follow the an orphan of follow Muhammad, one of our
followers, how can a leader follow a follower, right? So he didn't
want to compromise his position? They got to him as we mentioned,
by play on his ego, oh, you're spending time with a robot
courtesy because you need money, we'll hook you up man with some
money. There's no need for you to spend time with Abu Bakr. It can't
be because you're really considering Islam. There's no way
that's not for us. I mean, we have all this power. And when we
determine what is right, what is true truth is constructed, we get
to decide what it is not to be decided by this man named
Muhammad. We construct what truth is we construct what reality is,
we've been doing it for this long, we don't have to follow Muhammad.
Were there as leaders, not followers. And then finally, the
fourth area after the intimidation, or the like Walid
being told in the Quran, you know, this is going to happen to you're
going to go to Johanna 19. Guardians over Johanna, and
instead of people saying, oh, you know what, we should really take
this seriously, Allah subhanaw taala is reading the mind of an
worried he's giving us insight into psychology. And that is not
limited to everybody. It applies to anybody who has entitlement and
privilege and was all going everything going for them
knowledge, power, truth, ability to access ability to read
intellectual capital, cumulative culture, every you have everything
going for you, you should be able to read and understand that this
is reality. Instead of doing that you maintain your public image.
You don't want to accept Islam because of a socio economic
political position that you don't want to compromise. So Allah
subhanaw taala, after telling us what's going to happen to him and,
and 19 Guardians, or Jahannam, you will never be able to get up.
Instead of believing instead of humbling themselves, they become
more arrogant. Oh 1902, two LTQ seven, as we discussed, so the
fourth section focuses on the fitna of the number 19. And
Inshallah, maybe in our discussions, we can discuss that a
little bit. And then finally, the fifth section asserts that heaven
and * are real, they're not, you know, things that Allah uses,
as intimidation, they're real, and they are eternal, even though some
are mad disgust, oh, could Jahannam be be limited will
eventually perish. The strong opinion is that Jahannam is
eternal. And the reason for that is people can say, Oh, if it's
temporary loss, or just serve my sentence and move on, but of
course, your hand them is eternal, and it's there to intimidate. And
only those who really, really mess up will still spend Jahannam or
spend time in Japan and eternally, as we discussed, in the Hadith,
which after everybody has done the Shiva Allah's mercy, showers and
overwhelms everybody, the majority of people make it out, but as the
Quran mentioned, will also be many, many, many, many, many
people who, who don't make it up May Allah forgive us, Arab Amin
and anybody who does who's who was made to stay in Jahannam would
have really, really, really messed up. That's part of us believing in
the absolute and ultimate justice of Allah subhanho wa taala. So the
fifth section talks about the poor qualifies people for Jahannam and
for Jana, and then finally, the final section of the surah is a
response to or what needs a worded statement stating and the Quran is
a reminder that allows the human being to achieve achieve their
best, and it gives us again, an invitation to be raised and to be
honored. Let's look at the questions. May Allah bless you
from the back upwards walaikum salam wa rahmatullahi wa
barakaatuh due to Sister Maria by the name Polycom Sinha that's
already been discussed. May Allah bless you envision that for those
sister Kathy, can we say five and six and seven year old is not
Benina shahada, five and six and seven year old does not believe
the Shahada. Knowing anybody was present of the of the children
would count regardless of the age. But an initiative could mean
children who can be held as witness by age or intellect.
Nobody even showed the means they were always around like the
witness things. Not literally the sign the papers on it could mean
that but they were also present always present in big decisions.
So it means that he had family that were always present. They
didn't have
Have to go anywhere they were always present. So they had the
power, the autonomy, the financial independence to be able to do
that. Does that shift Mustafa May Allah bless you. Allah didn't stop
even when we stopped. Exactly. Oh, yes, I love it stop even when he
stopped he keeps giving us yes, it keeps giving us reasons keeps
giving us reasons. This question, why was there a period of revision
of pause to give the province enough time to, you know, to re re
acquaint himself with the message to get rid of the stress to get
rid of the anxiety? And then to come back to the Quran? Come back
to Revelation with a clear yes. Here's the answer to prepare him
for the heavy responsibility. Excellent. Replying to.
Okay.
Like I'm snapping.
Yes. So these are the notes the link for the notes is there for
those who didn't?
Perfect. Excellent. Any other questions? Let's see.
Just like Kamala Hayden robotica Luffy calm if there any other
questions, please send them now inshallah. Otherwise, we will
bring the Halacha to an end Hamdulillah we have completed our
discussion on Surah Al Muda. Third, let me once again, share
the notes here.
These are the notes make sure that you read them in sha Allah to
our long but I've highlighted the sections that are important. They
will summarize everything that we discussed and give you the sources
to read on your own. A lot of time was put into this. So please do
take your time to read through them in sha Allah, Allah, may
Allah bless you Amira Kulu, and give you Janet for those for your
kindness. Ask Allah Subhana Allah to accept forgive any shortcomings
just up in the Mahayana and keep us in your DUA. And I do find it
here at this time, want to just go back to the very beginning and
acknowledge the beautiful, incredible work that was done by
the notes team and the editing team. May Allah bless them and
give them Jannetty. For those again, whoever does not think that
people has not thanked the Las Panatela I'm really really happy
with the notes. For this class. They're really good Inshallah,
there'll be many, many improvements before we publish
these one day if Allah Subhana Allah wills and if he gives us
life, but a part of being grateful to Allah subhanaw taala is showing
gratitude to those who worked on this. So I do want to mention here
that this work could not have been possible without the work and help
of May Allah bless him and give him that for those brothers safely
Islam the incredible work and the help of brother Muhammad Farhan
after sister Allah Abdulaziz brother Hassan Sajid sister Mesa
saw that again syphilis Nam sister, mais sister Nadia, sister
selsun, Sister Eman, Sister Mesa as we mentioned, Sister
headmastership masks I thought Hera then a say stir Vanessa and
everybody else may Allah bless you envision that for those these are
the people who worked specifically as I know others worked on other
documents. Inshallah, we will mention you during that time. Once
again the last part that acceptance is sort of Nigeria on
behalf of all those who contributed on behalf of our
parents or wives or husbands or children until the Day of
Resurrection May Allah Subhana Allah accept is that from Allah Hi
Ron quiz will be made available to you soon. Please use the quiz.
Please use the quiz to acquaint yourself with the material and
once again my last point that I bless sister Alana for helping
with the interpretation is like a more hands on up along having the
ignition Allah and Mr. Fuller kind of to break was Armonico martial
law
