00:00:00--> 00:00:00

Rasulullah

00:00:03--> 00:00:04

became sick

00:00:04--> 00:00:06

in the house of Maimun

00:00:10--> 00:00:12

And he was sick for about

00:00:12--> 00:00:14

12 to 14 days.

00:00:15--> 00:00:18

And during the sickness, when it became severe,

00:00:19--> 00:00:20

he sought permission

00:00:21--> 00:00:23

from his other wives to go

00:00:25--> 00:00:27

and seek treatment or

00:00:27--> 00:00:29

wait for cure

00:00:29--> 00:00:31

in the house of Aisha

00:00:33--> 00:00:33

So,

00:00:34--> 00:00:36

they all permitted him, they were happy for

00:00:36--> 00:00:38

that And he went to the house of

00:00:38--> 00:00:38

Aisha

00:00:41--> 00:00:41

And Rasulullah

00:00:43--> 00:00:45

became severely sick

00:00:46--> 00:00:47

to the extent

00:00:47--> 00:00:47

that

00:00:48--> 00:00:49

he developed a fever

00:00:50--> 00:00:53

and he had a severe headache.

00:00:53--> 00:00:56

And when one of the il Sahaba radiAllahu

00:00:56--> 00:00:57

anhu spoke to him,

00:00:58--> 00:00:59

he says that

00:01:03--> 00:01:06

I am being affected in a great way

00:01:06--> 00:01:08

and I am affected

00:01:08--> 00:01:09

and

00:01:09--> 00:01:13

suffer the pain of 2 of you. Meaning

00:01:13--> 00:01:15

2 of the umrah of Rasoolullah

00:01:15--> 00:01:17

SAWAYHAW SAWAYAM.

00:01:17--> 00:01:18

2

00:01:18--> 00:01:20

men's pain.

00:01:21--> 00:01:23

The pain of 2 men. That is what

00:01:23--> 00:01:25

you would suffer, Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:01:26--> 00:01:30

As Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is struggling

00:01:31--> 00:01:32

with this ailment,

00:01:34--> 00:01:34

he

00:01:35--> 00:01:37

had a severe fever.

00:01:37--> 00:01:40

So he told the people bring buckets of

00:01:40--> 00:01:42

water. 7 buckets of water.

00:01:43--> 00:01:45

And they would take this water and pour

00:01:45--> 00:01:46

it over him

00:01:46--> 00:01:49

and he would try to get up to

00:01:49--> 00:01:50

go to salah

00:01:50--> 00:01:53

and then the fever would overcome.

00:01:53--> 00:01:56

So they would throw the 2nd pail of

00:01:56--> 00:01:59

water onto Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam And

00:01:59--> 00:02:01

then he would get up to go to

00:02:01--> 00:02:03

salah and the fever would overcome, so he

00:02:03--> 00:02:05

would sit back down again.

00:02:05--> 00:02:06

And this happened

00:02:07--> 00:02:08

7 times over until

00:02:09--> 00:02:12

2 companions of Rasulullah salallahu alaihi wasallam

00:02:12--> 00:02:14

held him from each side and they took

00:02:14--> 00:02:16

him to the salah.

00:02:16--> 00:02:20

And this was the messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam

00:02:20--> 00:02:21

with his salah

00:02:21--> 00:02:24

while he is in severe illness.

00:02:24--> 00:02:27

He's telling them pour water over me. Pour

00:02:27--> 00:02:29

water over me. Why? Because he wants to

00:02:29--> 00:02:31

go to the salah. He loves that salah.

00:02:31--> 00:02:34

He can't do without the salah. So he's

00:02:34--> 00:02:36

asking them, pour water over me. Doesn't matter.

00:02:36--> 00:02:39

I just want to feel okay enough to

00:02:39--> 00:02:39

go to salah.

00:02:40--> 00:02:42

And then he goes with the help of

00:02:42--> 00:02:44

2 men to salah, Allahu

00:02:44--> 00:02:46

Akbar. This was his relationship

00:02:46--> 00:02:47

with his salah.

00:02:49--> 00:02:49

And

00:02:50--> 00:02:53

one of the last and final messing

00:02:53--> 00:02:54

messages

00:02:54--> 00:02:56

that the messenger salallahu

00:02:56--> 00:02:59

alaihi wa sallam gave us was a salah

00:02:59--> 00:03:00

to a salah.

00:03:01--> 00:03:02

Your salah. Your salah.

00:03:03--> 00:03:05

He would tell the people, go to your

00:03:05--> 00:03:08

salah. Ensure you perform your salah. Don't lose

00:03:08--> 00:03:09

your salah.

00:03:10--> 00:03:10

And

00:03:11--> 00:03:12

when he was severely ill,

00:03:13--> 00:03:14

then he told

00:03:15--> 00:03:18

the people around him. He told Aisha

00:03:24--> 00:03:25

Let Abu Bakr

00:03:25--> 00:03:29

pray this salah. Command him to pray pray

00:03:29--> 00:03:29

this salah.

00:03:30--> 00:03:30

So

00:03:32--> 00:03:33

Aisha would say to him,

00:03:35--> 00:03:35

You Rasulullah.

00:03:36--> 00:03:38

He's a man who is very sorrowful.

00:03:39--> 00:03:41

As soon as he begins to pray, he

00:03:41--> 00:03:43

can't stand it. He can't bear

00:03:44--> 00:03:47

the sorrow that he feels and he begins

00:03:47--> 00:03:47

to cry.

00:03:48--> 00:03:50

So people can't even understand what he is

00:03:50--> 00:03:51

reading.

00:03:51--> 00:03:53

So Rasulullah Sallallahu

00:03:53--> 00:03:54

Alaihi Wasallam repeats.

00:03:59--> 00:04:02

Let Abu Bakr perform the salah. Let him

00:04:02--> 00:04:03

lead the salah.

00:04:04--> 00:04:05

So he wakes up from

00:04:06--> 00:04:08

one of the states where he was unconscious

00:04:09--> 00:04:11

and he hears Umar

00:04:12--> 00:04:13

leaving the salah.

00:04:14--> 00:04:15

So he says,

00:04:16--> 00:04:17

why is Umar

00:04:18--> 00:04:19

leading the salah?

00:04:19--> 00:04:23

Allah is not happy for anyone to leave

00:04:23--> 00:04:24

the salah, except

00:04:24--> 00:04:26

for Abu Bakr radiAllahu anhu.

00:04:27--> 00:04:27

So,

00:04:29--> 00:04:31

Aisha radiAllahu anha repeats

00:04:32--> 00:04:33

to him,

00:04:33--> 00:04:36

He is a very sorrowful man, O Messenger

00:04:36--> 00:04:37

of Allah. So he says

00:04:38--> 00:04:39

only Abu Bakr.

00:04:40--> 00:04:43

It is only Abu Bakr whom Allah is

00:04:43--> 00:04:45

happy and pleased with to lead the prayer.

00:04:48--> 00:04:51

Command Abu Bakr to perform the salah to

00:04:51--> 00:04:52

lead the salah.

00:04:52--> 00:04:54

And when Abu Bakr as Siddiq

00:04:55--> 00:04:57

who read led the salah, that is only

00:04:57--> 00:05:00

when this command stopped. That is only when

00:05:00--> 00:05:03

the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam calmed down.

00:05:03--> 00:05:05

And from this we can gather that

00:05:06--> 00:05:09

we know that Rasulullah salallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:05:09--> 00:05:11

passed away after this.

00:05:11--> 00:05:14

So he was actually telling the companions that

00:05:14--> 00:05:16

after I die, the person who will be

00:05:16--> 00:05:18

the leader is Abu Bakr as Siddiq radiAllahu

00:05:19--> 00:05:20

anhu because he was the leader

00:05:21--> 00:05:21

during

00:05:22--> 00:05:25

of the prayer, during the lifetime of Rasulullah

00:05:25--> 00:05:28

salallahu alayhi wa sallam. So clearly after he

00:05:28--> 00:05:30

passes on, who is going to be the

00:05:30--> 00:05:31

caliph? Rasulullah

00:05:32--> 00:05:33

I mean Abu Bakr Siddiq

00:05:36--> 00:05:38

And his daughter visits visits him.

00:05:41--> 00:05:45

Fatima radiAllahu anha. The only child left of

00:05:45--> 00:05:45

Rasulullah

00:05:47--> 00:05:51

She visits him. And Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

00:05:51--> 00:05:52

had a habit

00:05:52--> 00:05:54

where he would get up,

00:05:54--> 00:05:56

and he would greet Fatima

00:05:57--> 00:06:00

and he would make her sit in the

00:06:00--> 00:06:02

position that he was sitting in.

00:06:03--> 00:06:06

So that day, he could not get up.

00:06:06--> 00:06:08

He was severely ill. So she cried

00:06:09--> 00:06:10

and he cried.

00:06:11--> 00:06:13

And then he brought her closer

00:06:14--> 00:06:15

and he says,

00:06:15--> 00:06:16

Fatima,

00:06:17--> 00:06:19

I want to tell you that this is

00:06:19--> 00:06:19

the

00:06:21--> 00:06:21

sickness

00:06:22--> 00:06:23

that I am going to die in.

00:06:24--> 00:06:27

So she began to cry and she began

00:06:27--> 00:06:27

to weep.

00:06:28--> 00:06:31

And then, she began to laugh. So

00:06:32--> 00:06:34

Aisha is confused. What is happening here?

00:06:35--> 00:06:38

And the second message was, I give you

00:06:38--> 00:06:40

glad tidings. You are going to be the

00:06:40--> 00:06:42

first person to meet me

00:06:43--> 00:06:44

after my death.

00:06:45--> 00:06:47

That means you are going to die next.

00:06:47--> 00:06:49

So she became happy with this.

00:06:49--> 00:06:51

And Aisha says

00:06:53--> 00:06:55

that there were about 7

00:06:55--> 00:06:56

7

00:06:56--> 00:06:58

gold coins that the messenger

00:07:00--> 00:07:01

had in the house.

00:07:01--> 00:07:02

So he tells Aisha

00:07:07--> 00:07:10

What happened to these 7 gold coins?

00:07:11--> 00:07:13

So she says, they are with me. So

00:07:13--> 00:07:16

the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam says, give

00:07:16--> 00:07:17

them out.

00:07:17--> 00:07:19

Give them out in sadaqah. It is not

00:07:19--> 00:07:22

suitable for a nabi of Allah subhanahu wa

00:07:22--> 00:07:24

ta'ala to pass away while he has anything

00:07:24--> 00:07:26

of this dunya left with him.

00:07:26--> 00:07:28

So he tells Aisha

00:07:29--> 00:07:29

give it out.

00:07:31--> 00:07:33

And he falls into unconsciousness.

00:07:34--> 00:07:35

And when he wakes up he says

00:07:37--> 00:07:40

What happened to those 7 gold coins? So

00:07:40--> 00:07:42

she says they are still with me, oh

00:07:42--> 00:07:44

messenger of Allah. So

00:07:44--> 00:07:46

he says that do you want me to

00:07:46--> 00:07:47

be questioned with

00:07:49--> 00:07:51

about those gold coins? Give them out.

00:07:53--> 00:07:54

Give them out.

00:07:54--> 00:07:56

And then she gives them out and when

00:07:56--> 00:07:57

he wakes up from his

00:07:58--> 00:07:59

unconsciousness,

00:08:00--> 00:08:04

he says, what happened to those 7 gold

00:08:04--> 00:08:06

coins? And she says, I gave them out

00:08:06--> 00:08:07

messenger of Allah. And he

00:08:10--> 00:08:10

says,

00:08:11--> 00:08:14

We the messengers of Allah, we don't leave

00:08:14--> 00:08:15

behind an inheritance

00:08:15--> 00:08:19

because the inheritance of Rasulullah salallahu alaihi wa

00:08:19--> 00:08:19

sallam

00:08:20--> 00:08:21

was none other than

00:08:21--> 00:08:22

the salah

00:08:23--> 00:08:23

and the Quran

00:08:24--> 00:08:25

and the word of Allah

00:08:27--> 00:08:29

and the remembrance of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:08:30--> 00:08:31

And all of the sharia

00:08:32--> 00:08:34

that was the inheritance of

00:08:34--> 00:08:35

the

00:08:36--> 00:08:40

That was the inheritance of Rasulullah salallahu alayhi

00:08:40--> 00:08:43

He left behind the Quran and salah and

00:08:43--> 00:08:44

remembrance of Allah

00:08:46--> 00:08:49

He did not leave behind any wealth in

00:08:49--> 00:08:50

terms of this dunya.

00:08:51--> 00:08:52

And then,

00:08:52--> 00:08:53

at one of these salawats,

00:08:54--> 00:08:56

Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,

00:08:57--> 00:08:59

he stands up after the salah

00:08:59--> 00:09:01

and he goes up onto the mimbar

00:09:01--> 00:09:04

and he makes an announcement. Any one whom

00:09:04--> 00:09:07

I have harmed during my lifetime, let him

00:09:07--> 00:09:09

come and take his share

00:09:09--> 00:09:11

and take his right today.

00:09:11--> 00:09:14

Anyone whom I have backbitten, let him come

00:09:14--> 00:09:17

take his right today. Anyone whom I have

00:09:17--> 00:09:20

done anything to in this world, let him

00:09:20--> 00:09:22

come and take his rights today.

00:09:23--> 00:09:25

And none of the companions stand up except

00:09:26--> 00:09:26

for 1.

00:09:29--> 00:09:31

Was a iman who was known to be

00:09:31--> 00:09:32

close to Allah

00:09:34--> 00:09:36

He was known to have a good relationship

00:09:36--> 00:09:37

with

00:09:38--> 00:09:40

Allah and he stands up and he says,

00:09:42--> 00:09:43

I want to come and take my right

00:09:43--> 00:09:44

from you, O Messenger

00:09:46--> 00:09:46

salallahu

00:09:47--> 00:09:48

alaihi wa sallam.

00:09:48--> 00:09:50

So he comes forward

00:09:50--> 00:09:53

and he says so Rasulullah salallahu alaihi wa

00:09:53--> 00:09:55

sallam asks him, what right do you want

00:09:55--> 00:09:57

to take from me o urkasha?

00:09:57--> 00:09:59

And he says, on the day of badr,

00:09:59--> 00:10:01

when you were straightening the rose.

00:10:02--> 00:10:04

Listen to this. When you were straightening the

00:10:04--> 00:10:04

rose,

00:10:05--> 00:10:08

you took the stick and you pushed me

00:10:08--> 00:10:10

back with that stick, oh messenger of Allah.

00:10:10--> 00:10:12

I want my right for that day.

00:10:13--> 00:10:15

And he takes a stick that is there

00:10:15--> 00:10:18

with the companions and Rasulullah salallahu alayhi wa

00:10:18--> 00:10:21

sallam stands up with all of his illness

00:10:21--> 00:10:23

and he says, come. Take your right from

00:10:23--> 00:10:25

me. And he says, but on that day,

00:10:26--> 00:10:28

you my chest was open, oh messenger of

00:10:28--> 00:10:31

Allah. So open up your chest. So he

00:10:31--> 00:10:33

opens up his chest, the messenger of Allah

00:10:33--> 00:10:35

sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.

00:11:05--> 00:11:07

So he opens up his chest

00:11:08--> 00:11:10

and Okasha goes to him,

00:11:12--> 00:11:14

and he hugs the messenger of Allah

00:11:16--> 00:11:18

He places his head

00:11:19--> 00:11:20

in the chest of Rasoolullah

00:11:23--> 00:11:25

and he hugs the messenger

00:11:38--> 00:11:39

And Rasulullah

00:11:40--> 00:11:42

goes back to his home,

00:11:45--> 00:11:47

And his illness becomes severe

00:11:48--> 00:11:50

and it becomes difficult.

00:11:50--> 00:11:51

And

00:11:51--> 00:11:52

Ayesha

00:11:53--> 00:11:55

says he had a cloth that he would

00:11:55--> 00:11:55

take.

00:11:56--> 00:11:59

And he would wipe that cloth over his

00:11:59--> 00:12:02

head, place it in water, wring the water

00:12:02--> 00:12:03

out of it, and then wipe it over

00:12:03--> 00:12:04

his head.

00:12:05--> 00:12:06

And

00:12:08--> 00:12:09

she says that,

00:12:10--> 00:12:10

then

00:12:11--> 00:12:11

he

00:12:12--> 00:12:14

he he saw Abdurrahman

00:12:14--> 00:12:16

enter into the house. Abdurrahman was

00:12:17--> 00:12:18

the brother of Aisha

00:12:21--> 00:12:23

He saw Abdulrahman enter into the house, and

00:12:23--> 00:12:24

he says,

00:12:25--> 00:12:27

in fact, he saw that he had a

00:12:27--> 00:12:28

seawark in his mouth.

00:12:29--> 00:12:31

So he began to look at it with

00:12:31--> 00:12:34

a longing look as though he would love

00:12:34--> 00:12:35

to have that siwak.

00:12:35--> 00:12:36

So Aisha tells

00:12:37--> 00:12:38

him

00:12:40--> 00:12:42

that give that seawark to Rasulullah

00:12:43--> 00:12:43

So

00:12:44--> 00:12:46

he takes it and he begins to,

00:12:46--> 00:12:49

you know, do the that which we know

00:12:49--> 00:12:50

as the taswiq,

00:12:50--> 00:12:52

cleaning his teeth.

00:12:52--> 00:12:54

And this is how beloved

00:12:54--> 00:12:57

this was to Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.

00:12:57--> 00:13:00

As he is passing away, he actually says

00:13:00--> 00:13:01

that

00:13:03--> 00:13:05

If it was not for me to be

00:13:06--> 00:13:07

to become

00:13:07--> 00:13:09

difficult and hard upon

00:13:11--> 00:13:12

my

00:13:13--> 00:13:17

I would have commanded them to perform the

00:13:17--> 00:13:20

taswiq and clean their teeth teeth at every

00:13:20--> 00:13:20

salah.

00:13:21--> 00:13:23

So the messenger salallahu alaihi wa sallam cleans

00:13:23--> 00:13:24

his teeth.

00:13:24--> 00:13:25

And there he

00:13:26--> 00:13:27

is uttering words,

00:13:28--> 00:13:29

saying something.

00:13:29--> 00:13:30

And Aisha

00:13:31--> 00:13:33

says I draw close and I hear him

00:13:33--> 00:13:33

saying

00:13:40--> 00:13:43

Indeed death has its pangs. Indeed death has

00:13:43--> 00:13:44

its pangs.

00:13:46--> 00:13:49

There is no God worthy of worship besides

00:13:49--> 00:13:50

Allah.

00:13:51--> 00:13:52

And he says, indeed

00:13:53--> 00:13:54

death has its pangs.

00:13:55--> 00:13:58

And he says no but rather I choose

00:13:58--> 00:14:00

Allah. I choose the higher companion.

00:14:06--> 00:14:09

I'm choosing Allah. I want to go to

00:14:09--> 00:14:12

Allah. I'm tired. I'm done with this dunya.

00:14:12--> 00:14:13

It's over. And I want to go to

00:14:13--> 00:14:14

Allah

00:14:15--> 00:14:17

What's one of the statements that he is

00:14:17--> 00:14:18

making?

00:14:20--> 00:14:22

Indeed death has its pangs.

00:14:23--> 00:14:25

And what is the other statement?

00:14:25--> 00:14:26

He is saying,

00:14:26--> 00:14:28

but I choose Allah

00:14:29--> 00:14:32

It is difficult to leave this world.

00:14:32--> 00:14:35

Death has its pangs. There is a pain

00:14:35--> 00:14:36

to death but I choose Allah.

00:14:42--> 00:14:44

Death is a door and every person shall

00:14:44--> 00:14:45

enter that door.

00:14:46--> 00:14:47

And then,

00:14:48--> 00:14:49

he utters the

00:14:50--> 00:14:51

ayah.

00:15:03--> 00:15:06

So they are the ones who are with

00:15:06--> 00:15:09

those whom Allah has favored and placed his

00:15:09--> 00:15:11

bounty upon. The and

00:15:12--> 00:15:12

the and

00:15:13--> 00:15:14

the

00:15:17--> 00:15:19

and those are the best of companions

00:15:20--> 00:15:21

and he can he

00:15:22--> 00:15:23

breathes his last

00:15:25--> 00:15:27

and he goes to Allahar Abu alizati wal

00:15:27--> 00:15:28

jalal.

00:15:28--> 00:15:31

And this was the last of the Messenger

00:15:31--> 00:15:32

Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:15:33--> 00:15:33

Sallallahu

00:15:34--> 00:15:36

Alaihi Wasallam He passed away

00:15:36--> 00:15:37

and he left this world.

00:15:40--> 00:15:41

And Allah tells us,

00:15:45--> 00:15:48

You are to die, O Messenger of Allah.

00:15:48--> 00:15:50

And they are to die as well. Every

00:15:50--> 00:15:53

single one of us will die one day

00:15:53--> 00:15:56

in the manner manner that Rasulullah salallahu alaihi

00:15:56--> 00:15:58

wa sallam passed away. Why? Because

00:15:58--> 00:16:00

he was a human being and we are

00:16:00--> 00:16:02

human beings as well. Except that he was

00:16:02--> 00:16:04

the best of creation

00:16:04--> 00:16:05

and he was

00:16:05--> 00:16:07

the one who was most beloved to Allah

00:16:09--> 00:16:11

So his soul goes to Allah

00:16:13--> 00:16:14

And if death

00:16:15--> 00:16:16

was something that

00:16:17--> 00:16:18

was a bad thing

00:16:18--> 00:16:21

and it was an evil thing, then Rasulullah

00:16:23--> 00:16:25

wa sallam would have not tasted from that

00:16:25--> 00:16:26

cup of death.

00:16:26--> 00:16:30

But this death can be a beautiful thing.

00:16:33--> 00:16:35

The one who loves to meet Allah, Allah

00:16:35--> 00:16:38

loves to meet him. Prepare to meet

00:16:40--> 00:16:41

Allah and you will love to meet Allah

00:16:41--> 00:16:45

Subhanahu wa ta'ala. Perfect your salah. Improve your

00:16:45--> 00:16:48

relationship with Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala and you

00:16:48--> 00:16:50

will look forward to the day that you

00:16:50--> 00:16:50

meet

00:16:51--> 00:16:51

Allah

00:16:53--> 00:16:53

hoping

00:16:54--> 00:16:56

that you will be uttering the words that

00:16:56--> 00:16:59

Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam uttered as he

00:16:59--> 00:17:00

passed away.

00:17:02--> 00:17:04

There is no God worthy of worship

00:17:05--> 00:17:05

except Allah

00:17:11--> 00:17:13

The one whose last words

00:17:15--> 00:17:15

he has entered

00:17:16--> 00:17:18

into Jannah. Why? Because he lived his life

00:17:18--> 00:17:19

with that standard.

00:17:21--> 00:17:23

After wahid and shahada

00:17:23--> 00:17:24

and belief in

00:17:25--> 00:17:26

Allah

00:17:26--> 00:17:27

The companions

00:17:29--> 00:17:30

are shocked

00:17:30--> 00:17:33

by the passing of the messenger sallallahu alaihi

00:17:33--> 00:17:35

wa sallam. Umarun al Khattab

00:17:36--> 00:17:38

he stands up and he says, anyone who

00:17:38--> 00:17:41

says that Muhammad has died I'm going to

00:17:41--> 00:17:43

strike his neck. I'll kill him. He has

00:17:43--> 00:17:44

gone and left

00:17:45--> 00:17:47

us in the manner that Musa left his

00:17:47--> 00:17:49

people for 40 days and he will come

00:17:49--> 00:17:50

back.

00:17:51--> 00:17:53

So when Abu Bakr al Asadeek

00:17:54--> 00:17:56

hears about the passing of

00:17:57--> 00:18:00

Rasulullah he comes and he enters into the

00:18:00--> 00:18:02

home. And he sees the messenger

00:18:03--> 00:18:06

lying there. So he goes to

00:18:06--> 00:18:07

him and he says,

00:18:11--> 00:18:12

You are

00:18:12--> 00:18:13

beautiful

00:18:13--> 00:18:14

in life

00:18:14--> 00:18:18

and beautiful in death. Good in life and

00:18:18--> 00:18:20

good in death, O Messenger of Allah. Sallallahu

00:18:21--> 00:18:23

alaihi wa sallam. And then he comes out

00:18:23--> 00:18:25

to the people and he goes up onto

00:18:25--> 00:18:27

the mibbar and he says,

00:18:31--> 00:18:34

The one who was worshipping Muhammad. Muhammad has

00:18:34--> 00:18:35

passed away.

00:18:39--> 00:18:41

And the one who was worshipping Allah,

00:18:42--> 00:18:44

Allah is ever alive and he does not

00:18:44--> 00:18:45

die. And then

00:18:46--> 00:18:48

Umar ibn Khattab falls

00:18:49--> 00:18:52

to his knees and he bursts into tears

00:18:52--> 00:18:53

saying,

00:18:53--> 00:18:56

I could not believe these words but they

00:18:56--> 00:18:59

were so true. Abu Bakr as Siddiq radiAllahu

00:18:59--> 00:19:00

anhu says,

00:19:16--> 00:19:19

And Muhammad is none but a messenger of

00:19:19--> 00:19:20

Allah

00:19:21--> 00:19:23

If he is to die

00:19:24--> 00:19:26

and he is to be killed, then

00:19:27--> 00:19:30

will you turn against your heels and leave

00:19:31--> 00:19:33

Allah Will you leave Islam?

00:19:33--> 00:19:35

So he says, it is as though I

00:19:35--> 00:19:38

am hearing this verse for the first time

00:19:38--> 00:19:40

in my life. And I can't believe

00:19:40--> 00:19:42

that I'm hearing this verse.

00:19:43--> 00:19:45

And he falls to his knees and he

00:19:45--> 00:19:48

accepts that this is the truth. And this

00:19:48--> 00:19:49

was the nature of Umar

00:19:50--> 00:19:53

when he heard the truth as much as

00:19:53--> 00:19:55

his feelings were, he would accept it. If

00:19:55--> 00:19:57

he felt like I don't want to accept

00:19:57--> 00:19:59

this. I don't want to believe it.

00:20:00--> 00:20:02

He would still accept it. Why? Because

00:20:04--> 00:20:05

Allah said something here.

00:20:07--> 00:20:10

He would stop at the boundary of Allah

00:20:11--> 00:20:13

Here was the boundary of Allah Subhanahu Wa

00:20:13--> 00:20:16

Ta'ala. He knew I can't say anything anymore.

00:20:16--> 00:20:18

There is clear evidence that this has happened.

00:20:19--> 00:20:22

It is over. I surrender. But this affected

00:20:22--> 00:20:23

the companions

00:20:25--> 00:20:27

in a great way. Uthman

00:20:29--> 00:20:31

would pass by as Zubayr and Talha, and

00:20:31--> 00:20:34

he would not reply reply to their salam.

00:20:34--> 00:20:36

So when he was asked why are you

00:20:36--> 00:20:38

not replying to their salam? He says did

00:20:38--> 00:20:40

they even greet me? He was in

00:20:40--> 00:20:42

a stupor. He couldn't imagine

00:20:43--> 00:20:46

the death of Rasulullah salallahu alaihi wa sallam.

00:20:46--> 00:20:50

Abdullah ibn Unais radiAllahu anhu 3 days later,

00:20:50--> 00:20:53

he was fine. He was okay. 3 days

00:20:53--> 00:20:55

later, he passed away. The companions

00:20:56--> 00:20:59

say it is as though he melted away.

00:20:59--> 00:21:02

It is as though he melted away. Within

00:21:02--> 00:21:05

3 days, he passed away. Why? Because they

00:21:05--> 00:21:07

loved the Messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:21:09--> 00:21:09

We

00:21:10--> 00:21:13

we claim to love Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa

00:21:13--> 00:21:13

sallam,

00:21:14--> 00:21:16

but these were people who loved the Messenger

00:21:16--> 00:21:19

sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. They couldn't imagine

00:21:21--> 00:21:22

life

00:21:22--> 00:21:23

without the messenger

00:21:28--> 00:21:29

And that is how we should love the

00:21:29--> 00:21:30

messenger.

00:21:32--> 00:21:34

To the extent that we know,

00:21:34--> 00:21:36

we would run the tide.

00:21:36--> 00:21:38

We would give our lives. We would give

00:21:38--> 00:21:41

our families. We would give everything. Our wealth

00:21:41--> 00:21:44

and everything we have before anything happens to

00:21:44--> 00:21:44

the messenger

00:21:46--> 00:21:47

This was the attitude

00:21:47--> 00:21:48

of the companions

00:21:49--> 00:21:50

What would they say?

00:21:52--> 00:21:55

Take my mother, take my father, oh messenger

00:21:55--> 00:21:57

of Allah. It doesn't matter who it is,

00:21:57--> 00:21:59

doesn't matter what it is. I'm ready to

00:21:59--> 00:22:01

sacrifice it for you.

00:22:01--> 00:22:04

Oh Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wasallam.

00:22:04--> 00:22:06

This became clear in the battles.

00:22:07--> 00:22:10

Their love for the messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam.

00:22:10--> 00:22:13

They would stand up and put themselves between

00:22:13--> 00:22:14

the arrows

00:22:14--> 00:22:17

and rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. Between the

00:22:17--> 00:22:18

spears

00:22:20--> 00:22:21

and rasulullah salallahu alaihi wa sallam between these

00:22:21--> 00:22:24

swords and rasulullah salallahu alaihi wa sallam. Why?

00:22:24--> 00:22:27

Because they knew that we love this messenger.

00:22:35--> 00:22:38

Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. He passed away. He's

00:22:38--> 00:22:40

gone. But the message is clear from Abu

00:22:40--> 00:22:42

Bakr as Siddiq radiAllahu anhu.

00:22:43--> 00:22:46

In the Muhammad al Qadmaz, Muhammad has passed

00:23:04--> 00:23:05

Say, if you love me,

00:23:06--> 00:23:09

then follow me. Allah will love you.

00:23:11--> 00:23:12

Say, if you love Allah

00:23:13--> 00:23:14

then follow me. You love Allah

00:23:16--> 00:23:17

we will claim to love Allah

00:23:19--> 00:23:20

Follow the Messenger

00:23:22--> 00:23:24

Allah will love you and He will forgive

00:23:24--> 00:23:27

you your sins. So it is easy for

00:23:27--> 00:23:29

us to make claims, my dear brothers and

00:23:29--> 00:23:31

sisters in Islam. I love Allah.

00:23:31--> 00:23:33

I love his messenger. But

00:23:33--> 00:23:35

for us to worship

00:23:37--> 00:23:39

Allah and to prepare for our meeting with

00:23:39--> 00:23:41

him and to follow the messenger

00:23:44--> 00:23:45

that is a true judge

00:23:46--> 00:23:49

of our love of Rasulullah salallahu alayhi wasalam.

00:23:49--> 00:23:51

messenger salallahu alayhi wasalam.

00:23:49--> 00:23:51

messenger salallahu alayhi wasalam.
