Surah to Allah, Alhamdulillah.
I don't know where it is.
Wait a minute.
I think it should be here.
Inflicted harm and pain.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
In the name of
Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
In the name of Allah, the
Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
I advise you and me first to fear
Allah.
The righteous have already won.
Allah Almighty said in the Noble Qur'an,
after Allah's punishment from the accursed Satan, O
you who have believed, fear Allah.
The truth is certain, and you will not
die except as Muslims.
And then, Peace be upon you.
Peace be upon you.
All praises are due to Allah, Lord of
the worlds, for His blessings, His mercy, and
His guidance.
May Allah protect all of us, seekers of
knowledge, from the ignorant.
May Allah strengthen our Iman through the knowledge
that we have been seeking the Qur'an
and the Sunnah of our beloved Prophet Muhammad,
peace be upon him.
Brothers and sisters, we never fail to remind
ourselves the importance of calling upon Allah.
Allah always reminds every one of us, call
upon me so that I will respond to
your call.
Meaning, Allah loves every one of us who
humble ourselves and keep asking Him for anything
that is very, very important in our lives.
And nothing is more important than to seek
Allah's guidance.
Nothing is more important than to seek Allah's
guidance.
You can have everything in this world, but
if you are not guided, then you will
end as a loser.
And nobody can say, I am guided, if
you are not following the Qur'an and
the Sunnah.
Whoever feels that they are guided without following
the Qur'an and Sunnah, is just a
dream.
They are imagination.
Because Allah and our Prophet have reminded us
about how to seek guidance.
Guidance is to help us to overcome whatever
problems, challenges, trials, fitnah that we are facing.
And that is why Allah chose Surah Al
-Fatiha to be the opening chapter of the
Qur'an.
Why?
Only Allah knows why.
But if you look carefully in Surah Al
-Fatiha and the way our Prophet has taught
us, and he said, there is no prayer,
Salawat, without Surah Al-Fatiha.
To show us how important it is to
make sure that before anything, you must be
humble and ask Allah for guidance.
Kiki, is the door there open?
Somebody is trying and then...
Okay.
Let it open a bit now.
Okay, because it is heavy.
We understand why Allah named this Surah, Surah
Al-Fatiha.
The opening chapter.
Allah is telling us about the opening chapter.
To open what?
To open the hijab between we and him.
Because you cannot just talk to Allah without
adab.
That is why the Prophet, peace be upon
him, mentioned in one of the hadiths, the
meaning of the hadith is that prayer that
does not start with praising Allah, Alham, will
not be raised up to Allah.
You must remember him, praise him first.
You say at least Alhamdulillah, example.
So that is why Surah Al-Fatiha is
the Surah to remind us the importance to
praise Allah.
Alhamdulillah, Rabbil Alamin.
Praising Allah in the way he wants you,
not your way.
Remember who is our God.
Allah Rabbul Alamin.
He is Allah Rabbul Alamin.
He is the creator.
Yeah?
Of everything.
That opened the mind and the heart of
the believer that we all must share this
important message to everyone.
It is not just for you.
Allah does not belong to you, it belongs
to all the creation.
And Allah said, وَلَهُ مَنْ فِى السَّمَاوَاتِ وَأَرْقُلُ
لَهُ قَوْنِتٌ Everything in the heaven and in
the sky and the earth belong to him.
And every creation of Allah, remember him.
Except two.
There is the jinn and the insi.
Meaning, other than the jinn and human, every
creation remember Allah.
We are the one being tested and we
keep on failing.
When Allah created us, he created us for
a very noble purpose and reason.
Allah said, وَمَا قَلَقْتُ جِنِّ وَالْإِنْسِ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونَ
I never create the jinn or human except
for them to know me, to love me,
to believe in me, to worship me alone.
And Allah also said, وَمَا قَلَقْتَ حَازَ بَاتِدًا
Never once Allah created anything without a reason.
Not for play, not for fun.
أَحَصِبْتُمْ أَنَّمَا خَلَقْنَكُمْ عَمَسًا وَأَنَّكُمْ إِلَيْنَا لَا
تُرْجَعُونَ Allah asked us, do you think that
I created you for fun without any purpose
and then you know at the end of
the day you have to come back to
me?
So for those who have been Muslim and
been learning about Islam guided by the Quran
and Sunnah, it's a great blessing.
Knowing who is the creator acknowledge him is
known as Tawhid Rububiyah where people today are
not exposed to this term and they don't
like this kind of Tawhid.
They want other Tawhid, they don't want Tawhid
Rububiyah.
But it's just a term.
We get very confused with term today.
We argue and fight because of the terminology
where the whole thing is going back to
the same thing.
And Allah said, if you ask anybody, وَلَا
تُسْلَأْ وَلَا تُسْأَلُنَّا if you ask them, who
is the creator?
Everybody deep in their heart knows Allah.
مَنْ قَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِرَا فَيَكُولُنُوا اللَّهُ Allah is telling
us, you want to believe or not, that's
up to you.
He created every one of us.
And He said, if you ask anyone who
created the sky, the heaven and the earth,
people will say Allah.
That is Tawhid Rububiyah.
If you don't want to accept the term,
you can come with any term, there is
no problem, except you must remember, you must
acknowledge the true creator.
It's Allah Rabbul Alamin.
Why are we different in colour, race?
Allah make it different.
وَجَعَلْنَكُمْ شُعُوبًا وَقَبَائِلًا I am the one who
decide to make you into nation and tribes.
We did not choose who we want to
be, but Allah decide.
When He said, كُنْ فَيَكُنْ بِي and it's
be.
Very simple.
Then Allah is talking about His beautiful name,
الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ about His, He is the owner,
about His attribute now.
مَعْلِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ Allah is talking about His
attribute, أَسْمَعِي الْحُسْنَةِ and Allah said, Call upon
Me through My beautiful name.
فَدْعُوْ بِهَا Then the fourth ayah, Allah want
us to remember.
إِيَّا كَنَا أَبُّدُوا وَإِيَّا كَنَا أَسْتَعِينُ We have
been reciting this.
Every Muslim never fail to recite سُرَة الفَاتِحَ
When come to the third, the fourth ayah,
that is the beginning which Allah respond.
حَزَ بَيْنِ وَبَيْنَ عَبْدِ وَلِعَبْدِ مَاسَ There is
no more hijab, no more curtain between Me
and My servant, My slave.
Allah open the door for every single one
of us to connect with Him, to talk
to Him, directly.
إِيَّا كَنَا أَبُّدُوا That's why you see the
Muslim when they want to worship Allah, they
can worship Allah anywhere they are as long
as they face Qibla, they know the time
is right.
I mean the salawatul kamsa, the five daily
prayer.
And then they can take the ablution, everything
ready, they can pray.
They don't have to wait for an imam,
no.
They don't have to wait for a priest,
a monk.
Without them, you cannot pray.
No.
Of course, when there is a jama'at,
it's better, you got better blessing and then
you got 27 rewards.
But as an individual, you can be as
poor, the poorest person in the earth.
You can be as ugly and nobody like
to look at you.
But you have the right given by the
Creator to contact Him, communicate with Him directly.
Allah don't look at how poor you are.
Important, you want to stay connected to Me.
That is important.
You open the door now.
No more curtain.
There's no more people that can stop you
now.
And then when you say, I'm worshipping to
you, we worship Allah to you, only we
ask for anything we want.
Now, what did Allah say to us after
that?
He love us so much, He taught us
what to ask.
Can you imagine?
If He give it to you, so many
things was in our mind.
I want to be this, I want to
be that, I want to be, we have
so many needs.
I want to stay strong, I want to
be beautiful, handsome, I want to be rich,
I want to be somebody known, I want
to be a celebrity, I want to have
a beautiful sound so that I can be
a good singer.
You can have so many dreams.
But Allah is telling us, the most important
prayer, O Allah, guide
us to the right way.
If you are a successful businessman, very rich,
but all the money, majority is haram, dirty
money, corruption, you don't have peace.
You think people respect you because of your
property?
There will come a time people will just
arrest you for that and you'll be charged
and the whole world know who you are.
What is the point you have all the
power here when you have power?
Suddenly you are behind bars.
For us who don't have anything, Alhamdulillah, we
live so free.
We stay outside, no problem, nobody bother about
us.
You go anywhere, nobody notice who you are,
humble, simple, but sometimes you can, people can
give you a lot of security.
That's why there was a saying, very interesting.
They say, when you are driving, suddenly you
come to a traffic light and now your
traffic light is showing green.
What should you do?
Drive.
But because somebody important, more important than you
is passing by from another direction where the
traffic light is red, but they can go.
They stop you because, because of what?
Because we are nobody.
And we pay tax, road tax, everything.
And they don't pay tax.
That's why they don't stop in all this
toll.
They have, when they are coming, the toll
will be open for them.
We cannot.
While we are paying tax, but we have
to give way because somebody more important is
passing by.
Ministers and so on.
What do you feel?
Now the minister is moving suddenly.
The king is also coming from another direction.
Do you think they will allow the minister
to move?
Or they let the king to move first?
The king has to move.
You, minister, wait.
Because the level is not the same.
See?
You have to give way.
I mean, it's common in life.
But what do you feel when the king
and his group is moving?
Suddenly a cow is crossing.
Do the cows stop for the king?
Or they have to slow down and make
sure the cow passes them.
In peace.
When you try to imagine, you are so
high above, but then Allah just sent an
animal.
Allahu Akbar.
And that's why Allah, Rabbul Alamin, mentioned this
in the Quran.
He said, لَقَدْ قَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ فِي أَحْسَنِ تَقْوِيمٍ
In page 148, before the topic we are
going in today.
It's 149.
وَلَقَدْ قَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ فِي أَحْسَنِ تَقْوِيمٍ Verily, indeed,
We have created human beings in the best
of forms.
And Allah reminds us again in the other
ayah.
وَلَقَدْ زَرَقْنَا لِجَهَنَّمْ كَثِيرًا مِنَ الْجِنُ وَالْإِنسِنِ Remember.
I am the one who created the heaven
and the earth.
I created hellfire.
And I, Allah said, prepare * for the
jinn and the human.
In *, majority of the inhabitants are jinn
and us.
وَيَا لَهُمْ قُلُوبٌ لَا يَفْقَهُونَ بِهَا I give
them their heart.
They are heartless.
They never learn.
They don't feel for anything.
Very selfish, self-centered.
The little Allah gives, they become very proud,
boastful, arrogant, ungrateful.
وَلَهُمْ آزَنٌ لَا يَسْمَعُونَ بِهَا I give them
their ear to listen.
Listen to my command, my word.
Listen to the ayah and the saying of
the beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.
They don't care.
Most of the time, the younger generation just
listen to music without stop.
The whole body will move because of music.
You recite the Qur'an, they get sleepy.
Boring.
You know what has happened, your heart is
dead now.
It's not responding.
وَلَهُمْ آزَنٌ لَا يَسْمَعُونَ بِهَا وَلَهُمْ آزَنٌ لَا
يَسْمَعُونَ بِهَا I give them the eye, but
they are blind.
So many things today you see, if you're
walking, people don't look at you anymore.
In the 80s, I still remember when I
was living in Kuala Lumpur, in the heart
of Kuala Lumpur.
We get to see each other when we
walk, you know.
We will wish each other good morning to
the not yet Muslim, good evening, and for
Muslims, people look at each other.
Today, everybody is in their handphone.
They don't look at you anymore.
Can you imagine the changes that we are
facing now?
The connection, eye-to-eye connection, no more.
Even sometimes, you are, you know, walking with
your partner, your loved one, your children.
Can you imagine sometimes everybody is busy?
Your children can just disappear in front of
you because you are not looking at them
anymore.
They like to look at you, but you
don't have time to look at them.
That's why Allah said, I give you the
eye, but you are blind.
A lot of people will come in here
and there we have a lot of signs
around.
How many people look at the sign?
They don't bother.
That's why Allah said, I give you the
eye, but you are blind.
And what did Allah say?
They are like cattle.
Worse than the cattle.
Cattle is cattle.
That is their fitrah.
If they want to move, they move.
They don't care.
You can put all the traffic lights.
You can give all the sirens.
They don't know.
Not for them.
I want to walk.
I'm going already.
But human is different.
That's why even you are the king or
the emperor, you saw the cow, the cow
have to move.
You have to slow down.
You can be worse than them.
That's why Allah said, Allah said, I have
created human in the best form, but if
they don't behave like a human, they don't
want to follow the guidance, then I will
turn them to a situation that they are
the lowest of the low.
Asfala safireen.
Worse than animals.
We hope, brother and sister, Allah rabbul alamin,
guidance is still there for us.
If you keep on denying, ignoring the guidance
of Allah, the time will come.
What did Allah say?
Khatamallahu ala kulubihim wa ala sam'ihim.
Wa ala, I'm sorry, I will close their
heart.
Their heart will be closed.
Don't respond to anything is right anymore.
You can read the Quran, I don't feel
anything.
I don't believe.
When they look at their nature, they say
this is nature.
Nothing to do with the creator.
Nobody create, it just exists by itself.
You see how blind they are?
You can talk to them, you can call
them, they don't pay attention to you.
That's why some people, if you go in
the website today, when this thing happen, especially
when they're baby, they don't bother.
Those passersby quickly run and try to save
the baby first.
And then the parent was upset.
Who will you come and suddenly try to
stop and do something?
Example, it make the person who was helping
so upset.
You are going to kill your children because
of that.
They took their phone, they just throw on
the ground, break their phone.
Upset, human being human.
How can be you so blind?
You can't even hear the car is moving.
It's reversing and you don't even feel.
Now, let us go back 148.
For those who have been following this, it's
just a revisit again.
Allah said, لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانُ فِي أَحْسَنِ تَقْوِينَ
I have shared with you the meaning just
now.
Allah have created us in the best form,
best manner.
Changing this stature without permission is indeed an
act of atrocity and deviation that deserve punishment.
Don't be ungrateful.
That's why Allah said, لَإِنْ شَقَرْتُمْ لَأَزِيدَنَكُمْ وَلَإِنْ
قَفَرْتُمْ إِنَّ أَزَابِي لَشَدِيدٍ If you are not
grateful, you try to change how you look,
how you were created.
You are just too much.
For the same reason, Prophet ﷺ has declared
that the woman who changed what Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala has created, such as removing
the facial hair if Allah created that, wearing
wigs, so happen that you don't have long
hair, Allah give you some hair, but you
don't like, you want to be not who
you are, wearing wigs, false hair, filing the
teeth, tattooing their body.
Now more and more people are tattooing their
body, seeking by that to improve their appearance.
They try to look more trendy.
They want to join the trendy group.
You can join anybody, even to be like
an animal, half animal.
Animal don't even recognize you.
Half eagle, half lion.
They are cursed.
Whoever try to change Allah's creation on you,
you will be cursed.
And the Prophet said, according to Ibn Mas
'ud, Allah curse those woman who tattoo for
others and those who get tattoos.
Tattoo is haram.
But the worst thing that is happening, brothers
and sisters, I myself until today, never heard
in any of the khubbah that the Imam
is alert about this and remind all the
papa and the man who want to be
a real man, no tattoo.
Tattoo is forbidden.
It's cursed as well.
If you want to work, there are so
many halal job.
You don't work as a person who is
drawing tattoo on people's body.
This is a job, but that job is
haram because the Prophet said, it's haram Allah,
shaytan haramah samanahu.
If Allah forbid something for you to eat,
to do, your income from that is haram.
You can say, I'm not eating pork, but
I'm selling pork.
I'm not drinking liquor, wine, but I'm selling.
I don't drink.
Wallahi, I don't drink.
It's true, maybe they don't drink, but I
am selling.
I am promoting.
I'm a celebrity and the company want me,
he give me some good money and now
you can see my face.
I'm the celebrity.
Everybody knows me.
I'm promoting.
Guinea stock is good for you.
How do you feel?
Up, you feel proud?
You see your face everywhere.
You are celebrity and you look so pretty,
so beautiful.
I want you to promote my handphone.
Handphone is so small, but I want you
to dress half naked and now I'm going
to promote you.
Every stop, traffic light, people, people saw, people
is looking at a smartphone, small smartphone with
a beautiful lady dress half naked.
They give you big money.
Is that what you want?
Tattoo is haram.
Not only those who tattoo there, the one
who is in this profession, promoting, encouraging, now
is with us.
Those who pluck their facial hair for others,
sometimes we don't know how to pluck.
We don't have the skill.
We go to the center, beauty center.
They have all this kind of services for
you and those who have their facial hair
plucked, you allow yourself to go through this
kind of thing.
You are not happy with what Allah has
created.
Those who connect their hair with another fake
hair, you have hair.
If your hair is short, alhamdulillah.
Now a lot of ladies don't like to
have long hair.
Messy, you see.
But if Allah said you can, you should,
then you should.
And because the woman don't want to have
long hair, now the man is having long
hair.
I don't know what is happening.
I don't know.
If the man so happen that they are
so busy traveling, no time, no barber, that
is a different thing.
The Prophet did happen that sometimes he kept
long hair until the shoulder.
But most of the time his hair is
short.
We like to follow trend without a limit.
And those who found that he for beauty,
they all change Allah's creation.
If that's what you want, it's up to
you.
If Allah give you a body as a
trust, how you want to make use of
your body to do something against Allah and
the teaching of Islam, then you just wait
for your bad ending.
Alhamdulillah, Allah's hidayah is very unique.
There are people who are not yet Muslim.
I've seen them.
They are non-Muslim.
Of course they have tattoo.
They are all gangsters.
Gangsterism.
They are all fighter, warrior.
They want to be strong.
They want to show that, you see, the
body here is lion and there is tiger.
All the animals is in one person.
But then suddenly they realize what they do
is not enough for them.
Don't make them happy.
They don't have peace.
They got hidayah from Allah.
Allahu Akbar.
These are the tough guy, you know.
Everything they've done.
Suddenly they got hidayah.
They find peace.
Allahu Akbar.
Now, three quarters of their body is full
with tattoos.
Some to the level of their face.
Some they try to make sure their face
don't have that kind of strange, strange drawing.
But that is different.
You have done what you have done when
you are jahil.
Even those who are Muslim, they make mistake.
Time to come back to Allah.
You repent.
And no more new tattoos.
The old, if you can clean, you do
it.
If you can't clean, just leave it.
But how do you minimize the fitna?
You still have the way.
You don't dress, dress that expose the tattoo.
Long sleeve.
You dress everything that cover.
Try to cover it.
Because people when they look at you, they
don't know who you are.
They look at the tattoo, the good guy
is going to be judgmental sometimes.
Because it's about you.
You are the one who display all these
things.
The sisters who like to pluck their whatever
hair that Allah gives them on their face.
They want to have their what hair is
that you call?
The eyebrow.
They want to be long one, not short
one.
You can do anything you like.
Your color, that marker is so beautiful.
You don't want.
You want to color yourself.
There's a movie you remember.
They call Awata.
If the Chinese in my clan, they don't
know how to pronounce Awata.
They say Awata.
Awata in my dialect, the Chinese Hokkien, they
say, it's like this is all gimmick.
Don't trust these people.
He say something Awata.
That mean nonsense.
Inflicting harm and pain.
Harming a human being without reason is strongly
prohibited.
Haram is as well.
Allah said, In
Surah Ahzab, verse 58, Can
you imagine Europe who consider a very civilized
country.
They are the 4th, 5th world now.
We are the 2nd, 3rd world people.
We are poor.
They are rich.
We are nobody.
They are somebody.
That's why they always promote themselves that they
are better than you.
To the extent the middle people only honor
them, not the Asians.
Only honor the middle people.
Only honor the rest.
As long as you look white, wow.
In the now, the middle people now are
not proud to speak their own language.
All want to speak English.
It's okay because it's a language.
Good for communication.
And see what happen.
They are so civilized that when the Muslim
woman is dressing in a very modest dress,
covered, they can come and pull your hijab.
Can you imagine?
Is that civilization?
It's my body.
I don't talk about your body.
You want to walk half naked?
That is your body.
What is my right?
Even the dog now is wearing shirt today.
They want to dress up the animal, their
dog, their cat.
They give them some good shirt, some good
garment.
But when a human, and we believe this
is part of our right to dress modestly,
cover your aura, they can come and just
pull your veil away.
Astaghfirullah.
What kind of human, what kind of civilization
they are talking about.
They keep on putting fear to the good
people.
People want to go drunk.
Do anything, no problem.
You just want to pray.
You find one corner, you know the time
of prayer is in.
They can come after you.
Astaghfirullah.
When we pray, brother and sister, we are
not praying just for ourselves.
Guide us all.
Not just guide me or Allah.
Guide everybody.
They don't understand.
They don't bother to ask my right.
I know when I was traveling in Europe,
maybe 20 years ago.
Anywhere time for prayer, we just stop.
We pray.
At that time, thing was very different.
How different?
We find a safe area.
Don't disturb other.
we don't disturb any traffic.
One corner, we have a sutra facing something.
And the police who come by, working protection.
They don't want other people to cause harm
to us.
Alhamdulillah.
But we don't know what is happening later
on.
Either the politician have failed, who develop hatred,
or people are very ignorant, and the police
is guilty, is racist.
If there are people okay.
When you look black, worse.
It's like the black cannot drive a good
car.
The black cannot go in dining in a
good restaurant.
Not for you.
You don't have money.
You see, how their mindset.
They just cause harm to one another just
because of their ignorant, their arrogant, so, they
create fitna, and also, they have collecting a
lot of sin.
Abdullah bin Abbas and Ubadah bin Samit.
R.A. reported that Prophet Muhammad s.a
.w. said, this hadith I have quote, and
I believe everyone of us memorized.
La darara wala birar.
We repeat.
La darara wala birar.
No harm may be inflicted on oneself or
others.
Meaning, we, a Muslim, guided by the teaching
of Islam, our Prophet s.a.w. said,
la darara wala birar.
Don't do or say, sometimes, you don't say,
but your action.
Speak louder than word.
You want to say anything, use the best
word.
Don't curse.
Don't use abusive word.
Don't use the four-letter word.
Don't cause harm to yourself in the form
of a speech or your own action.
One of the action that you are causing
harm, tattooing yourself.
Your hair is getting longer.
You want to go to the barber, go.
Remind the barber, I want to be my
hair cut in the normal manner, not kaza.
I was sharing this kind of poster that
we printed here to a lot of young
people that I met in Uzbekistan.
Pass it to them.
They never have this kind of exposure.
Just read and just look at the example.
You want to cut your hair, cut normal.
Now who is having this problem?
The barber.
The barber is putting all the haram fashion,
trendy and then you allow yourself to be
there.
Once you close your eyes, you open your
eyes, you look like you don't look cool
like you anymore.
No, you must inform the barber now.
Please cut my hair normal.
Around, together, the same.
Don't do that kaza.
Sometimes I was very sad when I see
some papa, father bring their children, they want
their children to look like a stranger.
What is happening to our mindset?
It cause harm to yourself.
Other people look at you, people don't have
good feeling.
Tattooing yourself is causing harm to yourself.
And do not cause harm to other people
in a form of action or word.
Don't humiliate people.
That's why if you cannot discipline your children
very well, don't use word like, you are
like shaitan.
No, no, no.
He is your son.
How bad he is, he is still your
son.
Pray for him, talk to him nicely.
You cannot abuse him.
Your worker, your driver, you don't abuse him
because of his profession as a driver.
The same thing, your maid, your helper, you
don't abuse them.
Of course, they are your helper, but you
must honour them as who they are.
They are not your slave.
You pay them.
You must be kind, respectful to everyone.
You talk to them with respect.
You make them happy.
When you make them happy, and on or
off, you can call them and eat with
you.
When you make people happy, the cook will
prepare good food.
If not, something like you can see in
the video that people send to me, ask
me my opinion.
What do you think, chef?
They came up with a lot of hadith
about spitting.
Now they cook in the restaurant behind the
scene.
You're preparing food in a big curry.
They're preparing curry in a big what you
call this something they call people
who wear jubba with kopia and come and
spit into it.
They start to mix everything to have baraka.
Now not only one restaurant, more restaurants.
Now because the imam is doing it, he
feel that his spit also, his saliva is
the same like Prophet Muhammad.
He want to be a prophet too.
And now the worker themselves also do the
same thing.
While they're doing martabak.
Martabak, we love martabak.
You imagine.
We hope the health department, the authority will
look into this seriously.
They don't have the right to operate a
restaurant anymore.
Disgusting.
It's really how can you it's Allah's work
that something people just review it and share
it.
Now my feeling towards all these restaurants have
gone.
Last time I just like to go.
Now my feeling also have changed.
Of course at the end of the day
they say home food is always the best
food.
Even simple nasi goreng, fried rice, tastes better,
cleaner, healthier.
Now please be kind to your mate who
is doing cooking.
Please respect your driver.
Once your driver get crazy, he have to
think, he say enough is enough.
I better die than he's going to drive.
crazy then you will scream car loss.
You're gone.
I have experienced this one.
There's an argument and this is not driver,
this is husband and wife.
So happened the wife is a good driver.
But now when she was driving I was
sitting behind and husband was arguing with her
car loss.
The wife forget about me behind.
The anger in her, when there is a
bomb there is where he spit.
So please show kindness.
Don't cause harm to anybody in a form
of action or word.
Be kind to yourself, be kind to others.
There are few report in the sunnah of
our Prophet indicating that the Muslim woman during
the Prophet's time wore earrings.
They do.
They create themselves.
And the Prophet did not condemn or prohibit
this.
Quoted by Ibn Abbas reported that he saw
the Prophet pray the two rakat on the
day of Eid.
Eid al-Fitr or Eid al-Adha.
Then walk with Bilal to where the woman
sat.
Then the Prophet will give khutbah to them
too.
He admonished them and urged them to give
sadaqah.
Encourage the woman because women are the best
treasurer.
Men have anything extra give to the wife.
The wife will keep.
They are good in that alhamdulillah for raining
days to come.
So he urged them to give sadaqah.
They responded by giving their ring, earring and
other jewellery item.
Sometimes women don't carry a lot of cash.
Today everybody travel cashless now.
I just got a very bad experience in
my travelling.
I've been travelling hundreds of times around the
globe.
I got a very bad experience this time.
I was informed that everything is there already.
I've got 30 kilogram of weight for my
luggage.
My luggage don't even weigh 10 kg.
The one that I want to check in.
They said you have to pay because your
ticket is not included in check-in luggage.
10 kg because if you pay earlier cheaper.
You pay at the counter they charge you
48 RM per kilo.
So I have to spend 480 ringgit.
If not they're going to check in my
luggage.
I have my hand luggage.
I brought books and everything that I want
to distribute for the umma there.
I was given the info earlier 30 kg.
I have 10 kg.
They said no.
I was very upset.
I looked for the officer.
I said what is happening?
This is the worst experience I have in
my travelling.
Minimum you must have 20.
30 is good.
This is 10.
Oh our policy.
Everything if you buy direct with them they
should know.
There is a hidden cause in your operation.
In Islam this is haram.
You cannot even get a pillow.
You must pay.
You cannot have a blanket.
You must pay.
Everything have to pay.
It's not like before.
Airline you get minimum this.
get pillow.
You get blanket.
You get your food.
Not everything you have to pay.
They say this is a super saver.
I think your ticket.
I don't know.
I never normally I will buy my own
ticket but sometimes the one who invite you
the host want to buy for you.
And not only I experience the counter was
delayed because we argue what is happening and
then another lady from China he got 18
kilo.
48 ringgit plus 18.
No problem you have to pay, he pay,
I pay because I want to travel.
Then I inform the people who bought it.
They inform 30 kg.
That's why I informed them.
But the system said no.
What can I do?
Another sister traveling alone.
He have to pay 800 plus.
Never mind she has to pay.
But she don't have cash.
She have the phone and Alipay.
But the system of Alipay is not there.
She was so sad.
How can I travel?
I have gone through that experience.
So I saw her in distress when I
approached her.
But I have, I can pay.
But they don't have the system.
Neither he brought a card with her.
There's no credit card.
Alipay now online.
You go to restaurant so you want to
order food.
There is what they call code.
You do a scan.
I think in the future all these will
have a lot of problem traveling.
The young people they know what to do.
Scan?
Where's the menu?
I want to see.
We don't even know how to scan.
Then I said to the lady, okay, no
problem.
Now I also don't have Alipay application.
So we have a friend with us.
He don't have.
He said, oh, my wife have.
I'll call my wife.
Now you transfer to my wife.
Account, we'll pay for you here.
She was so grateful.
She was so thankful that there are people
who is here to make her life easier.
One episode.
So I informed all my people, pay, don't
depend on the system, check everything again.
Alhamdulillah.
They went to the airport, they want to
check in my luggage.
Now it's extra weight now.
Normally you travel light, but coming back, because
people who like you, give you goodies, give
you some presents, buy some food for you,
they want to pay.
I informed them, pay online cheaper.
Don't know, they have their own way of
doing things.
I was not there.
I was in another place.
They helped me to check in everything.
I was put in the VIP lounge, but
a big surprise again.
They check in everything, but they don't have
the system to accept money at the counter.
Where must I pay when I arrive?
How much I have to pay?
$1,200 plus.
But they have prepared the money for me.
Sorry, you know.
We want to pay, but they cannot accept,
but we can check in.
Now, this is the money you pay on
arrival.
I forgot everything.
When I came down, I arrived in KLA.
When I step out, there's people holding my
name.
I become a very important person now.
I say, is this you?
Yes, this is my name.
Can I see your boarding pass?
You have to pay $1,200.
I say, must I pay?
Yes, you have to pay.
This is extra luggage.
How many extra?
18 kg only.
They charge me $1,200 plus, but the
other side know that this is the charge.
They have given me the money.
How did I pay?
I informed the officer again.
This is the worst service I have.
I think enough.
Going, I have this problem, coming back to
the problem.
I will never recommend anybody to use this
airline.
This is how you treat your passengers.
Everything, they have a hidden cost.
Oh, we have made it very clear in
our system.
Yeah, a lot of people don't know.
We may have our travel agency people who
are organized thing.
We don't have problem before, so we don't
feel that we're going to have problem, but
for you all, you are money-oriented, money,
comfort, and the way you coming, the hidden
cost.
This also cause harm for travelers.
If you don't have anything, then you have
problem.
Coming back to the hadith, it was prohibited.
If it was prohibited to wear earring, the
prophet would have declared it when he saw
the jewelry that the woman gave as a
sadaqah.
Women don't bring cash, so they bring a
lot of jewelry.
They have a lot of earring, ring, and
so they donate it.
Allahu Akbar.
When you donate a ring here for the
sake of Allah, an earring Allah is going
to give you more in akhira.
Here you may have just an earring without
diamond.
Allah will give you earring with diamond.
When you enter paradise, you just ask Allah,
I want to have green diamond, black diamond.
Allah will give it to you.
Anything you want, I will give it to
you.
Allahu Akbar.
In the long hadith known as the hadith
of Umm Zar, Aisha reported that Prophet Muhammad
told her that Umm Zar said the following
about her husband, the wife of Umm
Zar.
My husband, Abu Zar.
Abu Zar is his nickname and what would
you know about Abu Zar?
He made my ear heavy with jewelry.
Before they don't give a lot of cash
to the wife, they just give them jewelry.
Wife, woman love to wear jewelry.
To the extent her ear become heavy that
mean not the tiny one.
In the conclusion of this hadith Prophet said
to Aisha, am to you like Abu
Zar, Aisha.
Make her happy.
This indicate the Prophet approval among other things
of Abu Zar giving earring to Umm Zar
to wear.
Zainab bin Nabi Aisha who was Anas bin
Malik wife reported Abu Umama request from the
Prophet to give some jewelry when he win
it from war.
To my mother and my aunt later on
some jewelry was brought before the Prophet including
earring made of gold and pearl.
The Prophet gave some of the earring.
When I grew up I found some of
that jewelry in my family's house.
In the war normally whoever participate would have
the right to the spoil of war.
The Prophet was given a special quota for
that.
So then whatever the Prophet have not for
himself he subsection.
Most of the scholars conclude that it is
permissible for women to have their earlobes pierced
in order to wear earring on them.
They argued that it had been prohibited.
The Prophet would have taken if it had
been prohibited the occasion to explain these to
people and warn them against it.
As for piercing a girl's ear it is
permissible for the purpose of wearing jewelry.
This was stated by Imam Ahmad.
He also stated that it is approved to
do it for a boy, a male.
The difference between the two is that a
female needs to wear jewelry piercing her ear
of benefit contrary to a boy.
So boy different, male different.
Now today no different.
Now today the men like to do like
the women and the women like to do
like men.
Opposite now.
We know what happens if this thing is
happening.
This is the sign of the freedom day.
It's coming very close.
People are not proud of who they are.
They want to be like others.
We should be proud of who we are.
You are a male, behave like a male,
dress like a male, talk like a male,
walk
like
a male, act like a male, a male,
act like a male, act like a male,
act like a male, act like a male,

Every question from the Jemaah.
Any question online?
Any question online?
No question online.
Good.
Any question on-site?
The poster that I shared with you, I
brought along to Uzbek, is this kind of
poster.
Talking about the haircut, kazaq.
And then, the hadith is behind.
Important, because a lot of people today are
not aware.
Muslims today have lost their values and identity
sometimes.
If I look at what is really happening,
we don't blame the public.
The public don't really know and learn.
We have failed.
Scholars have failed.
The khatib of Jemaah have failed.
You talk so many other things that is
not relevant.
People are not listening to the khutbah.
Because you are not addressing things that are
relevant to today's world.
That is number one now.
Question?
You read.
Read for me.
So that everybody can hear.
That is why a lot of people go
to Jemaah, they sleep.
Alhamdulillah, they don't allow you to play with
your handphone.
But a lot of people still, when this
thing happens, I always remind the people beside
me if they are doing this, I hope
you don't do this when the khutbah is
on.
I have to say something.
Because khatib don't say anything today.
We will let you read the question first.
There is some question from our brother, Sheikh
Imran Iskandar.
Sheikh, do we shave girls' hair for the
newborn?
Some say only boys.
Forbidden to shave girls' hair.
Yeah, it's a very good question.
The tahniq khalaq of a newborn baby.
For the newborn, there is no hadith that
only said only baby boy.
Any newborn baby, as long as they are
newborn 7 days, it is highly recommended to
shave the baby hair and weigh their hair
and then you give sadaqah.
Yeah.
Weigh their hair in a scale and give
sadaqah according to the weight of silver.
If anybody don't give more, the value of
gold.
Anything done on the 7th day and you
tahniq the baby and then you offer akikah.
The male, two sheep, two goats, female, one.
So there is no indication that baby girl
different from that.
So that's why we encourage those who have
the mean to do it.
There's only once you can do to the
baby.
If she's a girl, that's the only time
you can shave the hair.
After that, no more.
Yeah.
For the boy, you can still do it.
Especially when you go to umrah or hajj,
you can shave your hair but not for
woman.
Only once.
So whoever want to say there's a difference
for baby girl and baby boy, then they
should come.
If not, then we go back to the
general order for babies.
Yeah.
Only the difference that we are aware is
the akikah.
One for the girls and two for a
boy.
That's the only difference.
Yeah.
So when there's nothing to indicate the difference,
we go back to the general order until
there is something to show there's a difference.
Inshallah.
Now, yourself, sleeping.
Because in our local masjid, people sleep and
they sleep regularly during the khutbah.
In fact, you see all the imams and
all the khas, the special people who sit
at the front, they fall asleep.
You can see it.
I mean, they're literally kind of their hands
are drooping.
And then they get up and pray.
And I'm not sure what the understanding here
is regarding sleeping, but from my understanding is
if you feel drowsy, you should get up
and move.
And if you fall asleep, you should go
and make wudu.
But these people don't do that.
They literally sleep and then get up and
they pray.
And I'm wondering also if they don't have
wudu and they stand in line, have they
broken the saaf?
There's lots there, isn't there?
No, no.
Now, dosing off while you are sitting, a
mild kind of dosing off, do not break
the wudu.
Yeah?
Anytime we can have that experience and then
we're waiting, people are talking, a language that
we don't understand, we just wait to participate.
After that, we may come in and we
may dose off.
Yeah?
But deep sleep, you really lie down and
that, you can break your wudu.
Yeah?
The one that is just dosing off is
still okay.
But now, the reason that a lot of
people are doing that because it's not relevant.
There is a problem.
Normally, when people want me to give khutbah
and they prepare the text, everything, I say,
then you read.
I just listen.
If you don't trust me, you don't call
me.
If you trust me, you give me the
gist.
What do you think they want to talk
about for this Jummah?
You can give me some gist of it.
I will know what to do because I
have to talk to the people.
I'm not going to talk to the people.
It's an eye-to-eye contact and I
can see when we talk in that manner,
people listen because we are talking about things
that have to do with their daily life.
Now, it's happening.
So, of course, those who just off, it's
too sad that this thing has happened.
They don't benefit from Jummah.
By right, Jummah is like a booster to
every believer to the extent people were busy
doing business.
What did Allah say?
Wa zarul bayt.
Stop business.
Come.
Listen to the khutbah.
To charge your iman again and again.
That should be the spirit.
Today, that is a time people are busy
outside the mosque selling food.
They only come in to pray.
They don't even listen to the khutbah.
I feel very sad every Jummah when I
look at this.
Don't you know the law of Jummah?
Allah in the Quran, Surah Jummah, says, يَا
أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمُنُوا إِذَا نُّدِيَ لِلصَّلَاةِ مِن يَوْمِنِ
الْجُمْفَسِ أَوْ إِلَى زِكْرِ وَالزَّرُ الْبَيْتِ Stop business.
That's why in the time of Uthman, the
two azan was introduced.
First azan is before prayer time come in.
Half an hour, example.
And the azan go out.
And the real azan, when the imam stand
at the mimr and give salam and that
is the azan of the Prophet, sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam.
His time only one azan.
You want to read two?
Fair enough, but one earlier.
To alert all the businessmen, prayer time is
coming in now.
Stop your business.
Then after prayer, you continue.
They allow them to do business.
Okay, put a time frame.
Ten minutes before that, stop.
If you want to do business around the
masjid.
What is happening?
It's like when Allah said stop business, that
is the time they want to do business.
A lot of people coming, people want to
eat.
So, where is the juma'ah now?
And the authority allow, that is what make
me very sad.
You have the authority to say, this time,
stop.
Everybody in the mosque now.
Can you imagine?
Here is khutbah, here is eating and talking,
business going on.
In front of the masjid.
When we were students in Medina before, we
experienced beautiful thing in Mecca.
I don't know whether the thing is still
there today.
You have the motorway.
We go around to all the shops.
If you do not close, they will arrest
you.
Consider a crime.
They arrest you.
And some people close.
They close and they close themselves inside.
They close, not go to the mosque.
They close and they stay inside.
And the mutawid who has experience will kind
of knock.
They will arrest them.
You come here, you do business in front
of haram, Mecca, Medina and you don't pray.
You don't go and pray.
It so happen, my friend, I involved as
the reinforcement officer for this.
And also, my friend was a magistrate in
Mecca.
On and on, they invite me to go
to the prison.
The prison is not in haram.
Outside haram.
There is a prison.
They put all these people there and then
they invite me to give a talk to
them.
Because these are foreigners, a lot of foreigners.
Because it's a crime.
Can you imagine you come to haram, you
are doing business in front of the haram,
prayer time, you don't pray.
Are you a Muslim?
Now they have doubt.
Are they Muslim or not?
Alhamdulillah, like in Mecca, Medina, even you have
the shop, the store, you just put a
blanket, just put a blanket cover, you can
go and pray.
Nobody dare to steal.
Alhamdulillah.
Not necessary to lock everything.
Because people dare not because the officer, the
mutawid, will be moving around.
So it's true.
What Brother Mujahid said that a lot of
people is not listening to the khutbah and
I, number one, when this question was raised
to me more than 15 years ago, where?
In the TV program.
Ask me, what do you think, you can
share about people who sleep when Jumaat khutbah
is on.
My answer to them, you don't ask me
about those who sleep.
You should ask me why people go to
sleep.
Because the khatib have failed and we are
not talking to the audience.
We are reading khutbah from heart to heart.
Look at that.
That's why in the prophet time when somebody
came in, the sahaba came and said, the
prophet talked to him.
Have you performed two rakat prayer?
They said, ma solei to yaras kum soli
rakatai.
See how the prophet react.
Of course, we know the prophet don't read,
don't write.
So everything come from the heart.
Heart to heart talk.
Today, why we fear?
You fear the scholar.
If the scholar are very abusive, of course,
you can discipline the scholar, discipline the imam.
But if they know how to be a
good imam, you should be happy that they
are talking to the people and make the
people change from Jumat to Jumat.
Become better and better.
That should be the spirit.
Normally, if I travel to any country, of
course, you have more freedom to express yourself
in a not yet Muslim country.
They give you that kind of freedom.
But in a Muslim country, we feel very
sad.
The fear in them is not necessary at
all.
Good scholar will not use the member to
attack any individual except to give a general
reminder.
But if that also you fear, that means
you fear the truth.
Nothing but the truth and the whole truth.
Then, of course, what happens, people will do
so.
So people never change.
You talk about so many things to not
touch the heart of the Jumat.
Tattooing, talk to them.
Kazakh, the barber is there.
Don't do this kind of haircut.
Now you can alert the public also.
Now they send their children.
Let them look like a Muslim children.
Example, think that it's relevant to what is
happening.
Yeah, may Allah guide all of us.
So that's why every Jumat, if I go
to the mosque, no, it hurt my heart.
Even praying, they don't want to stand close
to each other.
Those who together, our Jumat is around, Alhamdulillah,
we manage to stand close but majority, they
don't want to stand close.
Why?
The Imam say that.
They say that, but what is the point?
You just lip service, you don't give them
time and check on reinforcement is important.
Now, any last question from the sisters?
Sorry, just an addendum to what you said.
You mentioned the Adhan of Uthman.
The Adhan of Uthman.
Yeah.
And I think it's important for us to
clarify that the Adhan of Uthman was done
in the marketplace itself.
It wasn't done in the Masjid.
So as you said, the Prophet's Adhan was
done in the Masjid, it was just one.
Given that, at that time, they didn't have
loudspeakers and everything.
I can understand even though some of the
companions considered it a bid'ah.
Anas ibn Malik considered it a bid'ah.
Even Umar ibn Al-Khattab's son considered it
a bid'ah.
Sorry, Ibn Umar considered this a bid'ah
as well.
But, given that we can understand the purpose,
Inshallah, hopefully, we can understand the purpose of
it.
What's the relevance today?
Given that people are in the Masjid, they
give the Adhan, there's loudspeakers, but the Adhan
of Uthman is given in the Masjid, it's
not given in a marketplace.
It seems like there's no relevance for that
today.
Yeah.
If you still want to say, we want
to follow some of the Sahaba.
Because the Prophet said, But, you see, this
one is, look at that.
Because the Islamic Ummah have grown so huge
from the time of Uthman.
So, the Ummah is getting more and more.
People are doing business, Alhamdulillah.
Now, the Adhan of Uthman is true.
Once, near the Ramad-Khutba, a lot of
people were involved in business.
You need time to prepare.
Ready now.
Today, you don't have that kind of system.
People were you come and Adhan in the
market.
People will say, you are extremist.
You've done something to them.
It's not only bid'ah, haram to them.
So, the whole situation changed because of knowledge.
Now, you have the loudspeaker.
Can you make sure that the first Adhan,
but the first Adhan today also is not
following any of the companion.
They call two Adhan when the time of
prayer is in.
One before the Imam stand on the member
like Zohar, and then they have a Qabla
like Zohar, and then the Imam will go
up to the member, then give Salam and
the second Adhan.
This one don't follow any Sunnah.
Neither Omar, neither Abu Bakr, neither the Prophet
of God, and also neither Uthman.
You want to do?
Okay.
One outside.
If you think it's difficult, you put a
loudspeaker.
Facing area, people are doing business.
And not enough.
Today, it's not enough to just do that.
You must have the reinforcement officer to discipline
the Ummah because people don't care.
People don't bother about Adhan anymore.
If people bother about Takbeer, people will not
pray firework.
But today, it's concave.
Muslims are happy with firework for the Eid.
You don't hear Takbeer anymore.
And the Takbeer is getting softer and softer.
And the firework is getting louder and louder
until midnight.
Until Qiyam-ul-Eid, you know, with firework.
Astaghfirullah.
All this that's happening around us, we can
hear, we can see, make us feel very
sick.
Where is the people who have authority?
They should not allow the Muslim to sell
this kind of thing.
They have nothing to do with Islam.
Waste of money.
Pollution of sound.
Pollution of air.
But what can you do?
We hope, Alhamdulillah, when I was in Uzbek,
I don't hear any firework.
I came back yesterday, I heard again some
firework.
Even there's no Eid day, people like to
on, they on.
Nobody care about that.
Where is my right to have some peace,
to sleep?
No?
The whole system have gone very wrong.
Even you talk to the not yet Muslim,
will you ask them, how do you do
this in your own country?
You think the Chinese, the Singaporean who major
Chinese, they allow people to do firework anywhere?
No.
They put a place facing the ocean.
Whoever want to see, if I go to
that area, and it go to the sea
so that there's no fire burning.
It may cause fire sometimes.
They don't do like here.
Here just in front here.
They shoot up and most of the thing
will fall in our compound.
I get very upset.
They have no respect to their neighbor's right.
It's like a lawless place.
And it start from what?
It start from seven until midnight one.
It's still on.
May Allah give guidance to the people of
authority.
We just do what we can and pray
for the best.
But we have to speak up.
Anytime we have an opportunity to say something,
say.
What is happening?
What is it?
We want people to know, to feel.
That's why Allah said, la hum qulubun la
yufqahu nabiha I give them the heart.
They are heartless people.
They don't feel at all.
Not my business.
Everything is a business.
Selling is a business.
Selling and buying are yours.
I love to do this kind of thing.
Alhamdulillah, we don't get involved.
But a lot of ummah is doing it.
InshaAllah, brothers and sisters, may Allah bless us
and guide us for spending our time wisely
to seek the knowledge of Allah and try
our best to follow what is right and
also share what is right to our fellow
Muslim brothers and sisters and those who are
not yet Muslim who are close to us,
do some da'wah to them and may
Allah accept our deeds, forgive all our weaknesses
and sins.
Ameen.
