Smilla Rahmanir Rahim Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa salatu
salam ala remember author of methanol Amin. So you know Milena
Muhammad Ali he wanted to he Abdullah Salah to welcome with the
slim.
I begin in the name of Allah subhana Thailand they send my
peace and blessings upon the Prophet Muhammad masala Salam,
acknowledging that whomever las Panatela guides, none can mislead,
none can allow to go straight. none can misguide. And remember
las Panatela allowed to go astray, none can guide except the last
kind of time, I asked a las Panatela to allow the Quran to be
our moral compass to be the the source of our moral formation, the
source of our ethicality and the source of our knowledge and allow
it to be the Constitution through which we navigate and and explore
and interact with every part of our lives. Is that going ahead and
for tuning in We begin tonight in sha Allah to Allah with the ending
of the middle and the ending of Surah attack Well, last time we
discussed the first 10 nine eight or so turning to show the will
recite from a 10 Onwards and hopefully within the letter I

me
Bismillah Alhamdulillah wa salatu salam ala Rasulillah. He while
early he was the woman who Allah.
Before we begin tonight, let's reflect on the ad that we
discussed last time briefly. So in a nutshell, Allah subhanaw taala
looks at or discusses things that are core to the life of the
Meccans and core to the life of many people, reminding them that
the things that they take for granted and things that are
essential to the life, the sun, the stars, in terms of navigation,
the mountains, the livestock, the animals, the sea, all of these
things will come to perish. So wait a second, if they come to
perish who's causing them to come to perish? And who created them in
the first place? These are questions that are not discussed
Exactly. But they're left to infer. So these are questions that
should come to the mind of the person who's reading and hearing
and reflecting on the
the who's causing this. All of the Sun
comes to exists to end or cease to exist then who caused it to come
in the first place to exist in the first place and who causes it to
end.
So it's a reminder that nothing in this world is intrinsically self
sustaining, and self supporting everything is dependent on some
entity who is this entity that everything depends on the Quran
comes to say that this is Allah. And the author of the Quran is
Allah sending us the moral guidance through to able to
connect with him better connect with our selves and better achieve
our potentials. That's kind of the introduction. Now, there are
subtleties that you can really appreciate, if you take the time
to think and reflect on for example, Allah says way that he
showed up to that relationships if you take that opinion will be
discontinued or relationships will become irrelevant. So imagine the
human beings which which are supposed to be social beings
inclining towards being in the presence of others will no longer
want to be in the presence of anybody, whereas the will who wish
the beasts which generally don't inclined don't come and
congregate, come together. So it's an understanding that everything
is going to be reversed, the beasts come together, the humans
run apart. So the contrast in the Surah are getting us to imagine
that the events leading up to the day of resurrection will have a
lot of opposition the sun does arrive price from the sun rises
from the opposite direction. In the light deficiency, the emission
of activity and the level of the sun will come out of the west
instead of the East German so all of these opposition's will take
place as an example as things to reflect on now let's look at the
IET for tonight Allah says in I attend of the surah where it is so
powerful Lucia right Lucia but you know in r&b Even the colloquial
language nasura refers to the news you know, when you turn the news
channel on, it's called mashallah I'm not sure about the reason for
that is because mashallah literally means to publicize or to
publish. You know, when you have a website and you're working on the
draft, and then you click the publish the Arabic word for that
is onshore, make it public. So Allah is reminding us imagine the
word used here is your pages, your scrolls, the scrolls of your
deeds, when you die, the book that has all of your actions and deeds
is shot according to the Hadith. So, for example, the heart he says
all to Kulu in silence, so he felt to be a meanie our vision lb
humanity, Allah pata. So he felt okay you have been adamant to
accumulate fear. So metal tour so metal initial Radek
fell Jambo Raju mad you me if you saw he said he, he says that when
you are alive, the angels are writing for you when you die, the
book is closed. And now that you are resurrected, your book of
deeds comes again, it comes to irrelevant again, and now it's
published. It's set out for the world to see.
So imagine one day, everything you've done, committed, will be
publicized front of Allah in front of people. And it becomes a
testament for you or a testament against you. Some things Allah
might forgive you for if you're repentant sealingly may actually
be wiped out of the record. So this is a reason to be optimistic,
maybe you don't have the best record Allah subhanaw taala can
erase that and can replace it with good deeds head but remember that
eventually everything that we do will be publicized. So that this
day here we're either sort of almost shot again this is talking
about in the day resurrection
our pages are becoming public. The finally our deeds are published.
Yeah Allah think about that. One of one of my favorite and Ashida
it's very common now held like a servant in the law, they can tell
they in Allah, hilarious of a cartoon
Illa imagine?
Do you have a secret between you and Allah, a secret that nobody
knows, but Allah, as sick that eventually will come on the Day of
Resurrection, and people will come to appreciate and understand.
So do you have charity that nobody knows about? Do you have things
that you do between you and Allah Panatela imagine there are people
that hide behind closed doors, and they commit sin? What about hiding
behind closed doors and doing good? What about staying
anonymous, doing good not to be recognized not to be known, but
for the sake of doing it for the sake of Allah Subhana Allah and
and not for the sake of anything personal or selfish Yet Allah
Allah may Allah make us among those people who do and give back
and articulate and build not for the sake of recognition in this
dunya but for the sake of recognition was ALLAH and you can
deceive this whole world into can be convinced
The whole world that your Greek person will never be able to
deceive Allah Who sees ya allah Maha a little angry when I took
the solo. So for me to, to have a great legacy in the world, it's
good Charlotte's a good indication of Allah except to you, but it
means nothing. If your legacy with Allah is not is not real, it's not
genuine
a man so the real the real like when we finally when can we
finally see this person made it this person was great. Now based
on what they've done in the dunya finally we come to realize who was
actually good and who is not when we meet Allah Subhana Allah and
when the source of when these scrolls are published. And Allah
subhanaw taala uses the same word Lucia Matura in Surah Al Asad
beaucoup le insan in Baku, let
them go for your movie or no
one will call you Jonah when we are woman Mati keytab, any woman
shoe or a poor kita back kefir, I mean FC Kenya woman and you can
see
and every person will impose their fate upon their neck.
And we will produce for that person on the Day of Resurrection
a record which they will encounter spread open, spread open,
publicized, spread open, Allah Subhana Allah protect us on that
day that you live with. What Enos sama pushing apart. summit comes
from the word center Yes, most anything that's high above us, the
hold everything the seven heavens above us where the sky is the
universe, however you want to define it, everything's above us,
everything that's above us. Will what will happen to that usually
it's understood as sky, what will happen to everything above us
where the sky, it will be Kushi buts, which literally means to
remove the outer layer. So it's as if we don't see we don't see the
under workings of the sky. We don't see the universe that when
we look up, what we see is we see it's just transparent, we see
refraction with some form of light, but we don't see the actual
inner workings. But the atoms and like the the nuclear forces and
the gravitational forces that are keeping everything together. So a
launch pad that removes the outer layer and allows us to see the
inner workings.
Yeah, hola. So we begin to see things as they operate that like
imagine we're not seeing the front end, we're seeing the source code
of what's actually happened. How are these how are these entities
staying in in space? How are they moving in space how how is there
motion for them with a simple push up. So the outer layer will be
removed the same word cash or you know push or push your thought is
used to refer to the skin of an animal being removed.
When you are writing something and then you erase it, like you erase
it, what you're doing is you're taking the layer out, you know the
eraser will take the ink out or the pen the pencil markings out.
So that's the word that is used here. So Allah span has given us
Yanni on that day not only listen to this carefully, not only will
the pages be publicized, but the inner workings of the universe
will be made clearer will be revealed and unveiled.
To Allah so the source code becomes apparent. And others say
that it's going to be the sky will be stripped away but I refer to
the or I feel more comfortable with the first opinion and Allah
Subhana Allah knows best way that Ajay mozzarella. And the Hellfire
is set ablaze, meaning the Hellfire already exists. You can
say it's on low fire, and now it's made heavier and stronger. So
Allah literally needs to be stronger to be heavier.
The Imam and of course some of us may Allah struggle to protect all
of us Yarrabah makers from the people of gentlemen allow us to
enter Jannah without an account, but we know that many Hadith about
those who will make, you know, have some sentence that they will
serve and join them and then eventually go to Jana. And usually
some of them with a saloon talk about the last personal antigen
after spending having spent time in Jana, Jana, and how many
blessings that person will go through. So imagine the last
person that will lead you Hannah, will get all of this privilege and
blessing. Should we then not get excited about being among the
first antigen, that should be our aim? So that front of Allah is
immense. We should remember that. For example, Salam says, I know
the last or it's attributed to me, he said, I know the last of the
inhabitants of fire to begin to be taken out and the last of the
inhabitants of paradise to enter. A man will come out of Jahannam
crawling then Allah be blessed and Exalted will say to him, go and
enter Jannah so he would come to it and it would appear to him as
if it were full. He would go back and say My Lord, I found it full.
Allah will say go and enter
Jana, he would say come and perceive it, he will come and
perceive it as if it's full, he would come and return back to
Allah Subhana Allah Allah I tried to get him to found a full, Allah
would then say unto him, go and enter paradise for there is for
you the light of the world and 10 times like it, or for you is 10
times the light of this world. He the narrator said, He, the man
would then say, are you really like? Are you? Are you? Are you
joking with me? Are you serious right now? Like, really? I'm gonna
get 10 times what was in the world? Or are you laughing at me?
It's like and him saying, like really is happening? You know,
when someone is shocked to hear good news? Like, are you kidding
me? Are you serious.
And even though you're the You're the king, the narrator said, I saw
the Messenger of Allah Subhana Allah subhanaw taala laugh till
his front teeth were visible. And it was said that would be the
lowest rank among the inhabitants of Jannah. Like imagine the person
who makes it last agenda gets 10 times the amount of blessings that
exists in the dunya. So imagine the best of kings, though in this
dunya, the lowest person in Jannah gets 10 times that and more. I
don't think anybody has ever controlled everything in the
earth. Now imagine owning 10 times more than that. So this is
supposed to get us excited to go the agenda and not become you
know, complacent and slow and, and unexcited and unmoved when it
comes to pursuing that shouldn't be saddled with a mouth compete of
idiotic affiliate tilava somewhat inefficient, let them compete. So
we should be excited to go and do the best that we can excited to
meet Allah subhanaw taala and have him give us that and a good news
that recognition and appreciation and blessing, not from someone who
can be deceived by our appearances and not see our internal reality
but somebody who can like someone who knows us better than we know
ourselves What better being to recognize us than ALLAH SubhanA
top way that agenda Tuesday. And gender will be brought near. Zulu
means near like for example, Zulu is also associated with honor and
position was deliver comes from like to be near to Allah subhanho
wa Jannah. As we discussed before, it's anything that's obscure from
the eye that you cannot see. So the gender that you never be that
you've never been able to see or imagined yet in this dunya finally
comes near, which means gender already exists. It's an important
philosophical discussions, because somebody will say, Oh, gender is a
metaphysical experience. It's an experience of the soul. It's not a
real thing. It's a thing that Allah has. No no gender is
reality. It's not it doesn't have an esoteric metaphorical. No, it
is a reality. And it will be brought closer so that the ads in
the Quran are making it clear that these are realities *, Israel,
Jana Israel, they serve as deterrence and and as as as, as
incentives for sure. But the real, the real at the end of the day,
ma'am.
Excellent. animates Neff soon met a bullet. On that day, every soul
will know what it has brought forth. But you don't on that day,
the reality will hit you and you will know. The minute that
happens, you will know oh I'm doing or Alhamdulillah mmm Bucha
Kitab will be meaningful Kulu
Tabea something will be excited to share what they've done and others
will be like, oh, yeah, later, how can I take all their other manly
merliah? Hello, can you sort of Banja who will follow till the end
of the surah and sort of the how others will come and say, oh, man,
I wish death was the end of me. What have I done? So we prepare
for that day. It is real. It's not a metaphor. It's not an image.
It's not a false promise. Allah is just unfair. And he never breaks
His word law. You flip on me. I have the full logo. For that look,
go see mobile coolness and enjoy coolness, while lady the assessor
also either turnoff.
So now the response comes. This is the customer who said Allah takes
an oath in the Quran, by things that he wishes us to think about.
So Civil Law Center is saying, as real as the stars that you see and
the planets that are around you.
The word of the Quran is real. So there are a few ideas that are
going to be called the introductory question, the things
that Allah will take an oath by and then the things that Allah
will assert as the answer of the oath as the subject of the oath.
So the object of the oath of the things that Allah highlights to
get us to think about the the seriousness of what is coming, and
then the statement is the answer or the object, the subject of the
oath, the most what is the object of the oath, Allah will take the
will will, will mention and highlight things as a
manifestation of how real his statement is. There's not
something similar in English according to my limited knowledge,
but it's
It's again, a style of,
of narration that is used by the Arabs would not want you to when
when the autumn speaker wants you to know some, something's very
important, we'll take an oath I swear as real as the sun isn't as
real as the stars are. What I'm saying to you is true, it's real.
So it brings attention to the gravity and the reality and the
urgency to act. But so what does Allah take an oath by what are the
objects of the oath? Allah says, I swear by the wholeness, wholeness,
that before we go to the things that Allah swears by, we look at
Fela, why does Allah say, Fela? The law here? It's immediate, it's
immediately and it's important and urgent. The law has two functions,
or two possible functions. It's added at the beginning for
emphasis.
resembles a law Allah is definitely to that, which usually
means no, sometimes it can actually be used as emphasis not
indeed, this is real.
Alright, so I'm saying no to you denying my claims was like, No,
don't even bother deny this is real. And others say that no can
actually serve the function of saying I don't even have to take
an oath by anything. I'm Allah. It is real based on me just saying
it's real. But to get you to think about it, I'm getting it imagined.
Of course, we're not putting words in, in the in the, you know, the
speech of Allah spanner or getting, imagine the function of
the of the language, how it's used, civilized, progressing, I
don't have taken off by these things. But I'm taking an oath by
things that are part of your reality. So you understand the
part of reality that you don't have access to. So as real as
these things are in your reality, these are also real. You haven't
received them yet, but you will one day, so let's go back fella
Oh, Cosima willfulness, are indeed taken off by the wholeness. What's
the wholeness? Wholeness literally means that which disappears.
That with a certain say, refers to the stars, the planets, because
they're visible to us at night, and then they're no longer
visible. When a little Dylon was asked about the fullness, he said,
we refer to the five planets, the celestial objects, you know,
Bohannon was held, while thought it was was, well moved.
On to study.
So these are all planets that the Arabs called the fullness, you
know, the are visible and they're no longer visible. But the word
wholeness linguistically means to contract and to wrap around
itself, to contract and wrap around itself. And I remember what
I did the first four Andreini videos, I was looking for a
metaphor, like a good example, they used an example back then
maybe is a little bit ridiculous, but it's kind of funny, and it
gets the point across. I remember, use the example of you know, when
you're playing with a child, you know, you're playing with a child
children cue. So you pick up a child, your own child and not not
someone else's child, you pick up the child, and you're, you know,
when you you start spitting the child, right, just to have fun.
And I'm not saying that you should do that, right, just getting you
to imagine it. So you spin the child after you spin the child
fast enough. And enough times, the child can actually like, it's
almost like the child has a gravitational pull of itself,
pulling for himself or so pulling you so that, like you're the one
that initiates but now the child is keeping you moving as well. So
when something begins to contract and wrap around itself so fast,
that it begins to have a gravitational pull of itself
that's associated with the word fullness, Allah so Allah Subhana
Allah says, I take an oath by this fullness this object that wraps
around itself and contracts for this thing that disappears and
then appears in order for it to disappear it means that it appears
right at holiness elgiva coolness. So Allah adds what are the stars
are one of the supplements that I'm taking by an oath by their the
JOA, which means that they're moving, like Jedi injury, they're
moving, their overarching so they're, they're moving, they're
always moving always in motion. And then it couldn't just means
the sweep remnants and dirt. So in other words, a loss of habitat is
describing planets as if they wrap around themselves and contract the
move and the sweep dirt and debris around them.
Now, let's pause for a second. I don't claim that there are
scientific miracles in the Quran. I don't like that terminology. But
I do see many examples of allusions in the Quran. metaphors
in the Quran that get us to think and are and think deeply in terms
of the language about Canada give us clues about the universe size
of the universe. And then I remember when I was preparing the
notes for this class, you know, back in a while, maybe five, seven
years ago. I couldn't help but realize the 2006 International
astronomy
A Astronomical Union gives us a definition of planets that is very
similar to the for us definition of planets. For example, a planet
has sufficient mass for itself,
for itself gravity to overcome rigid body forces, but it assumes
a hydrostatic equilibrium.
What is fitness literally mean to meet the contract and wraparound
itself? What about what's the second criteria, it's an orbit
around the Sun LGR means it's moving. It's in an orbit movement.
And finally, a planet has to clear the neighborhood around its orbit,
and then couldn't it's literally means to sweep left over dirt and
debris. So I can't help but notice the similarity. Am I suggesting
this is intentional? No, Alan, I can't I can't make any claims
about the intended you know, knowledge of Allah or the intended
meaning of Allah subhanaw taala, because the classical scholars did
not really allude to this and they weren't able to make you know,
they weren't living in 2006 to be able to make that connection. But
it's interested in the Quran And subhanAllah so far in Surah, Allah
and storytelling would differ as Surah till at the quill, we see
these little subtle allusions and hints to look at the world and to
experience the world and to think about the various Gani with
society assigned to get us to think about how things work in
reality, how planets are how stars are. So the out of who's listening
to this for the first time, not in 2006, but 1400 plus years ago, is
think Allah is taking an oath by the by something that retreats and
moves and, you know, continuously moves and retreats and disappears,
whether it's this planets and the stars, whether it's some celestial
objects, it is the philosophy that is reminding us that I'm taking an
old by these things that move and eventually become to disappear,
which means they appear all these things that are part of your
reality, as they disappear and as things appear, this is the reality
the Quran is as real as these things.
The Quran is as real as these things as the job in question
comes the answer to the oath or the subject of the oath. Well,
lady that has asked and ALLAH SubhanA, Allah takes an oath by
the night as it closes in what soupy that's an FS, and by the
morning, the dawn when it breathe is when it when it gives the
breath. And also, you know, you look at, you know,
documentaries to say that the forest gives a breath, you know,
it's interesting that Allah uses was so pay the 10 Fs, the morning
when it comes with its fresh air.
What does that mean? Some of them that make really, really subtle
connections here they say, imagine the earlier the sort of talked
about the girl who's buried, alive, suffocated, heavy, made to
feel heavy, couldn't breathe, didn't have a word or a voice for
yourself. And now what happens the day of resurrection as it comes
out? It comes with a fresh breath of air.
That's the feeling that we're we're giving you the image that
the day resurrection comes with this relief.
Command, just like the morning comes with like, Okay, you at
night, you're worried you're anxious, because if you're living
in the desert, and even at night, there's a lot of insecurity, a lot
of instability. And then the morning comes out. Anxiety is
gone. Maybe nowadays, we don't feel that because what happens, we
now have lights at night. So we can just turn the light on
whatever we want. But back in the day, at night, the stars are the
only thing that you have. There's a lot of insecurity, you could be
attacked, you could be pillaged, anything could happen. So the
morning comes off, we made it to another day could be attacked by
wilderness, it could be attacked by humans. It's a lot of
uncertainty in the pre modern world. So ALLAH SubhanA data is
getting us to imagine like you wake up in the morning, fresh day,
I made it another day, another opportunity to live. Allah
subhanaw taala as if the conviction is made that the Day of
Resurrection comes with a fresh breath, fresh breath of air, that
comes to give life that comes to give again, justice is refreshing.
All the injustice that was gone or all the injustice that was
unaddressed is not addressed in the day. Now why does Allah say
when Lady the US as one the night as it slowly retreats,
right? I Sasa.
Why? Because again the night represents darkness presents evil
represents injustice represents lack of clarity to the Quran comes
to give light. The Quran is a fresh air. The Quran is a voice
for the voiceless. Revelation is a fresh breath of air. So the job is
across them could be referring to the Quran. It could be referring
to the Day of Resurrection but more specifically, it is referring
to the Quran because Allah Subhana Allah says what in the next day in
now Hola. Hola Rasool in Kenny, India. Indeed the Quran is the
word of a Noble Messenger. So everything that we've discussed
before can be related to the Quran. So the sun will say
theory let's go back to the a the Shem school world, the sun will
disappear. But the Quran won't
and assume the stars will fall. But the Quran won't, the mountains
will come to perish, but the Quran won't. The relationships will be
broken and the Quran will come to maintain those relationships. And
we'll show for sure the beasts will come together on the Day of
Resurrection. And the Quran is reminding you of that. All of
these things that will eventually end up on is the thing that is
fixed and eternal and stable across all of those uncertainties,
and on changing realities. Because the Quran is the eternal word of
Allah Subhana 10
That's how I understand. And Allah Subhana Allah knows best. Now,
just like there's injustice, what's the example of injustice,
the burial of the female daughter how people used to bury their
female daughters, and they couldn't breathe? The Quran is a
fresh breath of air that comes to offer justice that comes to offer
hope that comes to offer light. What's the proof of all this?
What's the proof because you're making a big claim here in the
Quran, Allah makes it clear rasool and yet to Article I Atilla T
mobile unit and Euphrasia let me know I'm gonna sorry hottie mean
of automatic Elon. This messenger comes to you reciting to you the
distinct is science miracles of ALLAH. So he may bring you out of
darkness into light if you're a believer. So in the Quran, we have
many examples of how the Quran itself is sees itself as a fresh
breath of air as light that comes to guide as light that comes to
give hope. And of course, there's important there's maybe some
important in the reminding that fresher or the morning time is
important for us as Muslims, and the use of Sanlam for example, he
says, hola, hola, Derek lumity FIBA Korea, Oh Allah, bless my own
man in the early mornings. And then you Salam used to deploy his
army in the morning, used to meet in the morning, used to have his
merchandise sent off in the morning, travel in the morning.
So the morning is important beginning your journeys in the
morning. We shouldn't be, you know, nocturnal, meaning we spend
the whole nights away you can sleep after measure that shouldn't
be like pulling all nighters. No, we shouldn't be people that really
take advantage of the morning because blessing and Baraka in the
morning, the man and that's just a separate discussion, a separate
point here to think about. Now, here's, again, we're talking about
the objects of the puzzle. What are the subjects of the puzzle?
The subject of the person comes to answer the claims that they have
attributed to Russell Watson and they're saying, oh, you know, what
your profit is getting this from a shape on his account, and he's
making this stuff up, right, all of these claims. Now, of course,
Allah strengthener response No, the Quran is the word lacO. It's
the word can vary by a Noble Messenger. Which Noble Messenger
is not rasool Allah, it's an it's the first messenger. So the Quran
comes from Allah Subhana Allah to the first messenger Gibreel. And
then it comes through Gibreel to Muhammad wa salam, who is the
messenger that we have access to, that we have access to. So Allah
subhanaw taala is reminding, reminding the Mexicans that this
is not the word of a can only be called a Kenyan, right? These are
the words of a noble honorable messenger God rallies Sinha, the
cool word, he is, you know, powerful, he possesses power, the
ordinary in the dealership making, and he secure his special place
with the one who possesses the from. So it's a very special place
with Allah Mapua anthem Amin obeyed wherever he goes, and
trustworthy.
This This reminds So imagine this is one of the first mentions of
the angels. But it was not going to talk about any what angels are
like and what they're made up of. That comes later. The focus now is
the messenger is not getting this from a cat head or shaytaan or
bliss or any of that. This is coming from a noble, honest,
trustworthy messenger whose powerful has a position and status
with ALLAH SubhanA tap. So let's break it down. Cold means that
it's transmitted speech. The man is not Caleb, Caleb is one's own
speech. So my cannon, the goal is saying, you know how there's this
famous cold this famous saying it's not mine. So like pursuing
the coal is not the word of God. It's the word transmitted by God.
So that's why Qlm is not used. So it's the kalam of Allah, and it's
the code of the Rasul. Because he's transmitting it says, Call of
law Allah said, so he's transmitting. So the person is
where's the say transmitted by conveyed by? It's understood from
the word totally
pursuing caring. So why Rasul Massumi he's only transmitting
information on like the shell team who add and remove and change
things you know the sheltering are known for exaggerating
information. So like people who deal with the shell team and like
Gohan and whatnot in the old days people do black magic a lot and
the extent of all that and how relevant it is in this day and age
may Allah protect us but those who those who engage in those acts the
cat the cat head will speak in very mysterious language Oh, this
will happen to good will happen to you and things but what kind of
good very vague, and then we'll use like a few look but some bad
will happen to so it's very vague, very vague, and they will add
maybe one true statement and sandwich along that true statement
100 lines that's what we know about the kana but the Rasool is
just transmitting information is not adding or removing his carry
noble and honorable
the Quran is carrying through a messenger that is carrying an
angel that is carry and the one who's the most caring fellow Quran
carry one for Zulu carry Moon was you agree to carry moon right
Rasul in carry while Allah subhanaw taala who would come if
caught up Mr. Baker lady Hello? Hello Collinson. I'm gonna add up
your booking account. You see how now it's kind of lining.
Everything is coming together. Everything is coming together.
Vehicle is strong, powerful, strong and memory and
responsibility is not gonna forget. McKean postal Allah has
special place with Allah.
Allah Subhana Allah Yanni, when you when you study the angels in
detail, you will see the magnificence that in Angel Jibreel
has, for example, in the lie that have Babyland dodgy breed Sokar in
Hebrew fallen for a hit the whole the all you hit him Mooji resume
magnetic is cement fell pole in a lie he moved for them and Boo,
they will Hibou ad or Center call from you.
Level l Kabu. Phil.
Yeah, Allah, listen to this beautiful Hadith. If Allah Allah,
if somebody calls you breathe and says, Oh, God, I love this person.
I love so and so. So Gibreel begins to love him. And then
Gibreel makes an announcement and we haven't seen Allah loves so on
So, so love him and listen to the to this person, and inhabitants of
the Jannah will begin to love them and the earth will begin to love
him and tell that person will be accepted and loved by many, many
people around him. The man, now moto Moto, the word Mocha is very
powerful, because poha is to voluntarily obey somebody. So
Gibreel is so powerful, so capable that the other angels except to
obey Him by choice, not by force. That's powerful. And I mean
meaning is trustworthy and honest. So from the very beginning, this
answer so many issues that come up, people say, Oh, God made a
mistake, and he sent the way to Rasulullah instead of Ali. What do
you mean this man, this breed is not a man who's prone to error
and, and forgetfulness? No, he is calling powerful makeen has strong
because no one honorable, trustworthy and mean honest and
trustworthy. So don't don't get don't make any of those claims.
There's no room to make any of those claims that a mistake was
made or an area was forgotten No. So strength on behalf of the
delivery, strength on behalf of the person who's delivered the
message Muhammad wa salam and the one GB who carry the message to
him. When I saw he will compliment you and your companion is not at
all mad. So that's why this shows that we're talking about two
distinct entities. We're talking about Jibreel here in the US and
this is Lakota rasuna, carrying the horse the option McKeen motor
anthem, me and now we're talking about Muhammad the messenger so
Rasul Allah, and your companion, what does Allah say your companion
not? Why your messenger your prophet, because Allah Subhan
Allah has drawn closeness you know him, he's one of you, you talk to
him, you call them the most trustworthy, the most honest,
right? What would you say is a madman, he's not a madman. So the
forum is coming to defend Rasulullah salah.
And that's very important.
i This is very important when he's situated within the chronological
context.
And here, I want to make a quick position, a quick statement.
When we're studying the Quran in chronology, we're not saying that
this is necessary to understand the Quran. No, absolutely not. In
fact, it could potentially be problematic because some people
might say, Oh, look, this was revealed in this context.
Therefore, it's only relevant to that context. No, we're not saying
that. Because the UN in the current form that it exists, this
is what we believe. We believe that Allah intended for it to
exist in this form. So studying in the current look in the form that
it's
Code law codified in that is important. That is, yeah, no,
that's, that's that's what we're saying, well, that's the default.
But when we study in the chronology, the chronology, we get
to understand little subtle things here and there to the best of our
abilities will never get it perfectly, but it gets us to
understand some things. Yeah. And they're like, well, listen to
this, give it like what? Like here the Quran comes to defend those
who love send them three or four swords in. That's important it
teaches as Muslims, we shouldn't let others define the narrative
for us. We shouldn't say we stopped by the time like let them
do whatever they want. No, you see Muhammad Salam is being defended
here, but almost an attack. So we control the narrative that is
controlling the narrative, dispelling the lies and the myths
against Mohamed Salah. So your companion your friend, out of all
people, you should know this, but just a reminder that he's not mad.
Why? Because you know him. He's your companion. You lived with
him? Did you witness madness? For him? Are his words contradictory?
Or his word? Dishonest? None of that. That's not true. you've
recognized him as exceptional and character you've dubbed him the
most honest, the most trustworthy. How was it now all of a sudden
that you're calling him crazy.
Also head will compliment you know, oh, but he could be
imagining things. Maybe it's metaphorical three real estate
Jibreel that he already said you didn't appear and you haven't
covering the sky and his wings and all of that. And remember, we
talked about how he started to read and it was so overwhelming
that he ran for support from his wife had Asia for the second time.
Oh, it's metaphorical. It was something imagined. No, no, no,
no, no, no. Allah tells us clearly why the god or indeed he did see
God.
Bill awful clearly movie. He did see him in the clear horizon. Why
am I who I didn't know he'd be belonging, and Mohammed Salam is
not someone who's going to withhold knowledge of the Unseen.
He's not going to tell you, Oh, I didn't see an angel or he's not
going to withhold knowledge because you're not ready for
this is such an important
one Allah he this is such a powerful app. Because later on
those who say Oh, the Quran has esoteric meanings, and the prophet
had to use language that was accessible to the masses.
metaphorical language, there's a lot more that is not easy to
understand. You have to kind of look at the you know, esoteric
meanings of the Quran and you need commentary that goes beyond the
text and deeper meanings that you have to reach a level of meta
metaphysical meanings and philosophical meanings. Allah is
making it so clear.
This is so clear. Listen to this carefully. Mohammed Salim is not
going to withhold knowledge of the Unseen because you're not ready
for it. He's not going to say I didn't see an angel because that
will be more believable. No, that's what happened. I saw an
angel. I know you can't believe that. But that's what happened.
And I'm not gonna I'm not gonna lie to make it easy for you to
accept no, that's what happened. And I'm gonna convey the message
as it happened. And I'm gonna tell you exactly what happened. If you
struggle with if you have skepticism, I'm not going to
change the message to get rid of your skepticism you need to
overcome your skepticism because this is it. This is real, as real
as the stars as they fall in set to disappear as real the sun as
real as all these things that you believe in multi core, but all of
them go and what says is the word of Allah and what says is ALLAH
SubhanA time so powerful, yeah, Allah, that it's so powerful when
you think about the Imam So Mohammed is not going to withhold
knowledge of the Unseen he's not going to speak to you and
metaphors and things like that. And oh, this is not his direct
this is its literal. It's not metaphorical. It's not
allegorical, it's not you know,
it's direct word of Allah subhanaw taala one that will be wholly
shaped on ology. And this word the Quran, it's not the word of a
devil, that is expelled like modern Doom and the rune dispelled
removed from jet from Jana from GraphLab. Allah
shaytaan literally means it comes from the word shock on a bow Tada.
So, like being on shampoo means well that is so deep. So something
that's that's fallen social upon, there will be some someone that
rebels and breaks away from the norm that is set by Allah subhanaw
taala associated with burning, it's also associated with, with
rebellion, as we discussed, and associated with something that is
far and deep, and something that clings to the bottom. So a bliss
shaytaan is a being that rebelled from the work or the norm of Allah
subhanaw taala becoming distant distanced himself from the Mercy
of Allah subhanaw taala fell to the worst of the positions in
place, literally, that's the definition or the language shock.
Another word shelter encompasses all of those meanings. So let's
say this is not the word of someone who's rebellious. What
broke away from Allah was a evil being
No, this is the word of an honest messenger, who gets it from an
honest messenger, consoling, caring.
So after saying all this for 18 Habu
Where are you going?
What are you going to do now? Now that the Quran has made it clear
what is real, the resurrection is real. It's not, it's not
metaphorical. It's not allegorical, the unseen is real,
the angels are real, like imagine how many things we discussed, this
is early Medcom Surah, full of meanings full of the important
concepts that you can you can write books, philosophies about
this. Now, that's all that has been said simply the question is
the alienated honeymoon. What are you going to do now? What are you
going to ask? What's your move?
Imagine you know, you these are my moves, this is my position. What
are your moves? Allah Allah has made it clear, these are the terms
and conditions they can accept. Or you can accept. In Hawaii, we
could only land and we
now, Makins maybe like oh, you know what we can accept? We begin
let me think about it. I don't.
And they can say oh, you Why are you focused on us and they might
actually have what they might actually have a it's like self
supremacy complex that I'm so important self importance, that
the Quran is focusing on me and this Allah. But here the Quran
makes it clear. This Quran is not just for you Makins. So whether
you deny or not, it's not about you, you're trivial. You're not
like nominal in large picture. This Quran is a reminder to the
worlds not just to this world, to the worlds to that Jinn creatures
and the human lens creatures, to the people living now, tomorrow
and forever.
It's very powerful. So the Quran from very beginning, we're talking
about fourth Surah sees itself as a message that is relevant to
everybody across all time and across all space. Ghana, may Allah
bless you.
It's a message a reminder to the world's Why is it a reminder,
because many of the things that are contained therein are not
going to require a complete, you know, they're not going to require
like, you don't have to unlearn everything to accept, know that
they're there they go with your natural flow. If you're an honest
person, they go with your natural pre disposition
them out. So they go with the natural disposition.
It's a reminder of what you should know what's deeply inside you,
part of your fedora. The man part of what you should know your
inclination to connect with Allah comes to remind you of all that
comes to remind you what your purpose is, what you should be
doing in life, what truth and falsehood are, it's sort of, it's
a reminder, and that's why the Quran is full of repetition.
Because we're forgetful beings. The Quran is not repeating itself
because it has nothing else to say. It's the word of Allah
subhanaw taala. But it repeats concepts that we think we
understand, but we require more time to really, really appreciate
and take in, I mean, listen to the script, I live means all that
which is created, I want it means multiple worlds. So this island
then is our which is a portal that is a super plural, which is
Ireland mean, which means all of the multiple worlds. So the
message is coming through the Quran is not just limited to
humans, it's universal.
Because it's coming from the Lord of the Worlds who applies to
everybody ever been. And that's when he was salam in the hadith is
sent to the inside the jinn is sent to various creatures. And
there's of course differences in the Sharia as of both but he sent
the Quran applies to every it has concepts that are fundamental. So
he believes in Allah honesty, integrity, so Sharia and after the
or that feed itself is going to be very important and core and
constant across time and space. Lehman share I mean company
stalking for whoever amongst you wishes to take the right course,
wishes to take the right straight path. So again, there's choice
this agency after imagine Allah says, What's your move, and it
didn't happen?
Because you have to make a choice. Allah is not going to force you.
Let's try let me Masahito 11 Toluca, so what are you going to
choose? But remember, you will not be able to choose except what
ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala wills for you to choose because he's the
Lord of the Worlds. So again, he's like, Okay, I'm gonna choose guide
and say, Okay, I'm Carla. She's got no, you can choose guidance on
your own. You have to meet the conditions and the precursors set
by Allah in order for you to meet guidance.
So you couldn't choose a less Allah gave you the ability to
choose, you have to be grateful for the opportunity given to you
but Allah to choose to begin with,
just to recognize that's a matter of submission we have as Muslims,
I recognize that the choice that I have is still a gift from Allah.
So yeah, Allah, I will not be able to choose unless you make it easy
for me to sift through the truth and falsehood as falsehood and to
give me the strength to choose the right and to stay consistent upon
it, and to stay firmly advocating for and to give me the strength to
avoid falsehood and advocate against it. That's the submission
we should have. So I can't choose on my own, I have will have choice
and freedom, yes, but life is full of deception.
And I can be deceived into thinking that this is good. And I
can deceive myself with the fact that I've made the right choice.
So I come to ALLAH SubhanA, Tanzania, Allah, I'm coming to you
with a super clean slate, no assumptions, low prior biases, I'm
accepting whatever you deem to be true. Whatever you deem to be
right, whatever you define as false when I'm willing to reject.
This is the level of submission that the Quran is making. And we
can infer here from this if you have Allah make us among those who
submit to you willingly and accept your power and your supremacy
overseer, Allah and we ask Allah Subhana Allah to give us the
ability to understand the Quran, to live it and to appreciate it.
I've given this example to you before, but the choice and
understanding the metaphor.
Imagine you're applying for medicine, or law school, you don't
show up and be like, I'm going to be here, whether you like it or
not, you can't force your way into the school. And the school doesn't
force you to come. The school sets conditions, here are the
conditions that you have to meet in order for you to be accepted.
So if the school didn't set conditions, you would have never
been able to apply anyway. Just to be grateful for the skill set and
the conditions. But you can just go based on your own desire can
you be like oh my god school today, I'm gonna go to medicine
become a doctor to meet the conditions. So same thing with
Allah's mercy, you don't just want to show them because you want to?
Well, I love Allah so much, Allah rasool Allah so much, I'm gonna go
to jail because of my love. That's nice. But there are conditions and
precursors and requirements. If your love leads you to do the
actions and the commitment, right, then we are able to demonstrate to
ourselves and others and to Allah subhanaw taala. Or to ourselves,
Allah is already aware that we are able or that we really mean it. So
the actions are a confirmation of our genuine intention and love to
Allah subhanaw taala. So the actions will stick which take us
agenda as we discussed before, but the actions are confirmation that
we're ready and that we care and we want the Grace of Allah. So
it's the Grace of Allah which takes us agenda, but it's the
actions which allow that grace to be given to us to be poured upon
us.
And it's the choice of Allah Subhana Allah given to us that
allows us to choose. So keep that in mind, very important. We have
to meet that criteria. So but Allah, simply put very simple in
other simple words, we don't come to Allah on our own terms, we come
to Allah on his terms. You can't be like y'all, I'm gonna meditate
and pray to you in my way. Yeah, Allah, I'm doing this wonderful
thing, like you're not doing the five prayers, but you have this
own a banner that you can vent it. Now this is my way of showing my
gratitude. I count my blessings and I don't pray the five daily
prayers I don't bow I don't do the things I also listen them said,
and things that you told us to do through the messenger, but I have
my own way of loving you. And I hope you accept your Allah. No,
you come to Allah on his terms, not on your terms. You don't have
arrogance in your heart be like okay, accept me. Why don't you
give me guidance? No, you have to come to Allah and His terms. Is
that common law here? Let's look at the questions.
And this will ask the description of clamor. Allah talks about a
girl who, who injustice was done against, also the son of the
Prophet Muhammad Salam was passing when he mentioned take care of
your woman. These two things that are correlated, your right, as
societies justice is measured by its ability to take care of its
most
most vulnerable, orphans and women and the Quran comes to advocate
for women, girls, orphans, slaves early on. It's important to think
about that in the first advocacy that the Quran makes if we
understand this to be the chronological, correct, you know,
order of the Quran. The first social issue that we're addressing
here is, you know, address the older the infant female who was
buried alive. Does anyone say that a a 20 is referring to Rasulullah
Sinha? Yes, there are those who say the important end of the
Archie McKean. Yes, but it's more likely to be Jubilee.
They would say we will not accept Gibreel as he brings bad news.
Yes, that is true. That is true. Some people would actually choose
between angels. You're right. They will say we're not going to take
it from Jabril because Gibreel you know is is is not one of our
US History destroyed us. Yes, safest time is talking about the
thing you know spinning the baby the centrifugal force. Does that
go
by the Feras does that come along? am I likely to make learn which
switches use for emphasis meant on top does that mean emphasis? Yes.
Yes
yeah no possum whenever it's preceded so very simple brother No
law whenever it's preceded precedes a cousin it's usually
used for emphasis that's the understanding can we say vacuum
itself and creation is a creation we will say we will see when even
vacuum is removed

guidance come to non Muslims as well? Of course, of course it
does. We are supposed to be messengers of the messengers of
Allah. So we have to do the best that we can to share that guidance
with them. And Allah's Panatela holds everybody to different
standards and accountability based on the level of knowledge that he
