Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil aalameen hola hola Nene wobbliness in what are some of you want to sell him either her Tamil ambia you will mousseline Nabina Muhammad he he was so happy I mean a lot melesa in the merger and musella what entertainer alone hasn't either she settler obvious Cyril Allah to assume Waterman will fire Wahby canister in we sank a lot of bullets that you will jellal for having gathered us here once again. And we ask Allah subhana wa tada to surround us with the meta aka, and to cause his mercy and His Sakina to descend upon us and to raise us with the MBR Allahu wa salatu wa sallam and those whom he has mentioned with him, I mean,
in the previous Tafseer we discussed solar today
and inshallah it will feel we heard how Allah horrible is that you will gll protected the Kaaba from the evil forces that wanted to destroy it. And how Abdul muttalib had come out and asked for his candles that he wanted. And he said, well in bed at buena, me and the house has a Europe that will protect it. As for my camels, I will ask for them. And as for the house, it has a job, who will protect it. And Allah subhanho wa Taala with the smallest of creatures destroyed this huge or large army strong army of elephants. And this was a small little bird that came and dropped a stone from a height killing all of these elephants. So Allah subhanho wa Taala it is mentioned by the mufa serien
that he continues, Lila feverish. We destroyed this whole army for the gathering of polish and polish originally. So for the gathering of Quraysh together in order to get together and become team and come to understand that Allah subhanho wa Taala is the most powerful and there is no one more authoritative and higher than Rob bull is that your gelar so he gathered courage in order to tame them to calm them down. Because you must remember that courage had it in them. They believed that we are strong, we are mighty, we are powerful, yet Allah subhanho wa Taala is the one who protected the Kaaba with the smallest of animals. So Allah subhanho wa Taala says, He laughed.
He laughed at him, let ashita he was safe. They accustomed security that they had achieved and attained when they went in their journeys for business. So what I wish they would actually go for business up to a sham in the summer months, because it was very warm, and it was a sham was known to be a core area. And then in the winter, they would go down to Yemen, because Yemen was known to be a very hot area. And as they were going, they would come across these bandits. And these bandits would try to rob them of their valuable goods. Hey, you've got this breed, we want to take out Swartz put it to the next etc. But when they said that we are the people of the house, we come from the area
that is sanctified by Allah subhanho wa Taala. Then even the bandits left them alone. So Allah subhanho wa Taala says he v him, the movement, reflect ashita he was safe, the movement when they went up in the winter and went down or when they went up in the summer and down in the winter to Allium. And so Allah subhanho wa Taala had given them security due to the house. So they understood the value of this house, they understood that Allah subhanho wa Taala has protected us through the value of this house, the sanctity of this house, because imagine someone walks into your home and they put a gun to your head and you say, Hey, hold on, hold on, I can come from such and such a
sanctified area and they walk away. They leave you alone. What does that do? It teaches you that this area is a very sanctified area that even the bandits have a little bit of shame for the field that we cannot do something bad against these people because they come from such a holy area.
Such a poor area. So,
Allah subhanho wa Taala then says, Failure to do so let them worship of
the of this house. Why? Because the house is made of stone. If the house is destroyed, we will rebuild it, there is no problem, we are only facing it, it is only sec sanctified because Allah Subhana Allah made it sanctified. Ibrahim alayhi salatu was Salam. When he came together with his son and began to place these rocks, imagine he had not been commanded by Allah subhanho wa Taala to move this house, then what sanctity would the house have absolutely nothing at all. Yet Allah subhanho wa Taala is the one who placed that sanctity there. So he is drawing the attention to that there are all these idols that you worship, all these structures that you create and carve with your
hands and you think they hold any value. They don't hold any value. Rather, they were created by Allah subhanho wa Taala. Learn, whoo, they'll be hacking in the law. There is absolutely nothing to be worshipped truly worthy of worship, except Allah subhanho wa Taala. So this house that you worship, means or this house that you come from, they didn't worship the Kaaba, but Allah subhanho wa Taala drew the drew the, the attention to the fact that the Kaaba is to be sanctified, because of Allah subhanahu wa Tada. He is the one who gave that sanctity to the Kaaba, so worship, the rub of the Kaaba, who protected it in the first place, then the Abu lahab Al Bayt, a levy of ama whom
endure, he is the one who fit them when they were hungry
for human health, and he protected them when they were fearful. So you think that these people protected you by keeping the hands away from you? It is ultimately Allah who protected you when you are on these journeys. You went and you were fearful for your lives? How did this security come about for you? Because Allah subhanho wa Taala created a suburb and a means in order to protect you. So worship that and worship Him alone? Does alert when do they feed you in any way? Do they give you any food? Do they provide for you sustained for you to sustain you? Do they help you when you have no children? And you call out to them? Absolutely nothing, no response. In fact, if you kick that
idol, it will do nothing to defend itself. So how do you then worship that idol? worship the one who provides for you, the one who sustains you, the one who literally gives you food when you have no food whatsoever. And this Kaaba has an amazing history from the beginning, from the time when Ibrahim alayhi salatu was Salam had left her job. And he went, who is the one that gave his Marine, the quench of thirst that he so desperately required? It was none other than rubber bullets that he will gel on the desert was dry. The desert had nothing no water, that child would have died without the help of Allah subhana wa Tada. So this caliber, and this house reminds us of the of the house
and that is our goal is that you will general and let the Atlanta home endure man or woman home and he protected them or he secured them from the fear that they were feeling. There is a hadith of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that we should think about

Amanda Shafi Rahim Allahu taala, he says
that men Canada only been
