Helen, or more Hibernia, Ramadan, welcome or month of Ramadan, or month of Quran or month of summer.
This is certainly going to be on Ramadan with a difference and already in this medium which we have
adopted now, as opposed to poster all we talk we will have these daily broadcasts of our particular
		
00:01:20 --> 00:02:05
			theme this year in the light Our Allah, Allah Allah grants us life and we pray that he does for the
entire month of Ramadan and mercy and multifuel amin Europa alameen. Our theme will be the apostle
ambia the stories of the prophets specifically focusing on kissa Nabi Musa, the story of Prophet
Moses, peace be upon him. Of course last year we dealt with the story of Nabhi Yusuf alayhi salatu
wa sallam, which was an amazing story, accidental causes Allah calls it one of the most beautiful
stories, and it was quite convenient in that the entire story is located in one chronological order
in the Quran, in one surah in one place. Subhana Allah This is a unique feature of surah Yusuf and
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:57
			the story of novel use of for no other story follows this example in the Quran. However, the story
that is most oft repeated in the Quran is that of NaVi Moosa, and they said it was an M and V.
Benes, right. And the interesting element of this is despite the fact that it's so often repeated,
the story takes different perspectives different aspects into consideration at different times. It's
not mentioned chronologically, the most chronological and consecutive set of ayat would come from
Serato cos, which we will begin with in sha Allah. However, it's important to recognize that the
repetition in the Quran especially with this theme, has a very specific purpose. Let me just enlarge
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:10
			this quickly. So this digital format that we that you're going to be adopting this year in sha Allah
is going to facilitate that we can have daily lessons in the comfort of our own homes.
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:17
			I would like to start on this evening the first evening of Ramadan. With this particular preamble.
		
00:03:18 --> 00:04:03
			The stories of the prophets in the Quran represents one theme of the gluteus core and that is the
theme that we that we refer to often as at DEF ki be a yam Allah, very mind is of the days of Allah
subhanho wa Taala. So what does this mean? A lot speaks about this in the Quran. When that killed
him Roomba yummy, let's remind them of the days of Allah what are the days of Allah old days belong
to Allah? Yes, of course. But specifically the days of Allah or the days or the epoch, the eras, the
time period of the NBA alaimo salatu salam when they walked the earth? Why is this special? Because
this forms part of divine history. Divine is three I'm calling it that because Allah Subhana Allah
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:47
			influenced events in such a way that they would be lessons, they would be admonishments, they would
be warnings, they would be glad tidings for all of those who would come there after. Divine history
is, you know, a less behind on the islands power was manifest in the world in the form of miracles
in the form of prophets in the form of why all of these things were prevalent. So events that took
place under those circumstances would forever be recorded in the divine books such as the Torah, the
Injeel, Zaboo, the Quran etc. We of course have the Quran and divine history or that can be a Milla,
reminding of the days of Allah takes up about 20% or one fifth of the Quran.
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:59
			It is very important to understand how to deal with this particular theme. I recall my first
exposure to the translation of copper and it seemed
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:44
			Very disjointed from from where we were we I was at least at the time, you have a book that's that's
meant to be guidance for all time for all people for all situations. Yet you find it speaking about
Adam and Eve and you find it speaking about navvy Moosa in a prophet Moses and the children of
Israel, especially if you open up for an from the beginning sort of it has sort of Baccarat. Soon,
you will see that the predominantly sort of Bukhara addresses Yeah, Bani Israel, oh, children of
Israel. And the story of Moses keeps coming up. So I was 18 years, 18 years old at the time, and I
recall thinking to myself, how is this relevant to me, and then eventually, you come across other
		
00:05:44 --> 00:06:29
			verses that seem to be more universal in nature. But this is, of course, a misconception. The
problem is that there's a lack of understanding if you're a contemporary Muslim, of course, you're
listening to this. So you are, but you know, as a contemporary Muslim, it's difficult without
guidance, without knowledge, to see how exactly stories of the past has relevance on situations that
we find ourselves in. Now, if you're more familiar with with lessons from s3, then this will be
easier. But it comes down to one thing, and that is ferric W. Yeah, Lila bizarre. It is. Take note,
take Listen, Take heed, oh, people have insight, or people have intellect. What we have to do, this
		
00:06:29 --> 00:07:15
			is now the crux of the matter. Everything that I said up until this point, was an introduction to
this point. This point is, we have to take cognizance of the way things played out think, see how it
applies to us in our lives now, and find out which characters are in play at this point? Who is the
Messiah in our story? Who is the pharaoh now story? Who is the Hanged Man in our story? Who are the
bunnies reveal? In our story? What is the Torah in our story? The relationship between all of them
obedience, disobedience, power, humility, knowledge, etc sobor and tastes? And then how does that
affect our lives now today? In other words, how can we you know, learn from the mistakes and learn
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:38
			from the the actions so that we don't repeat those same mistakes now. And when doing this when
thinking of it as a form of chaos as a form of analogy on our own lives. Now all of a sudden, all of
the stories of the prophets make perfect sense for our context. With that we begin the story of NaVi
Moosa and a salad to a cinema. And Avi Moosa is one of the
		
00:07:39 --> 00:08:23
			one of the five great prophets mentioned in the report and because of the suburb that he that he had
to endure, this was gonna be Mohammed so I sent him Maybe he said, maybe Ibrahim, that'd be Moosa,
and there'll be no, these prophets are called the oral azim the possessors of specific might and
authority and greatness, because they had to they had the greatest responsibilities and they
underwent the the greatest trials, now be musala Salatu was Salam played such a significant role,
and there are so many lessons in, in the life of Nabil Moosa and the interactions of NaVi Moosa that
Allah mentions him, you can't you can't delete the Jews of the Quran, except that you're going to be
		
00:08:23 --> 00:09:05
			mentioning something about the story of Abu Musa alayhis salaam, his interactions with the benissa
he even his birth, his interactions with Pharaoh around the way they dealt with a different taste,
this is repeated again and again, you will see as we proceed, even the lighter Allah that it's not
always the same angle, sometimes the exact same story is mentioned. But when it's repeated the
second time around is not like the first time the third time around is not like the second time this
is a slightly different angle. And when that happens, essentially what we are looking at is what is
the lesson that allow us to, to to to point out at this particular stage in the Quran, our our
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:34
			journey begins in Surah total costs in this surah Allah Subhana Allah gives us the most the most
content chronologically from the beginning really, back then soon you will find that the the story
this is interspersed in the interest of the color and the background, I will leave for the story
itself as it is revealed in the light Allah so we begin how the bill administrate on the regime.
rajim Bismillah R Rahman Rahim
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:50
			Allah says in Surah two cosas por si meme, these letters are seen meme or other letters that are
similar in the Quran. Alif Lam Meem Kapha in salt, these so called Heroku
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:59
			that basically means the abbreviated or the cut letters. There are theories about this as to what
they mean they are
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:45
			possibilities, but all of them have a series of Allison novalja are unanimous in that lamea lm model
a demo in Lola no one truly knows the meaning of these letters, except Allah azzawajal. Only Allah
Subhana Allah truly knows what these letters mean what they refer to. This is one of the miracles of
the Quran in that the Quran just opens up and immediately we have to submit to the fact that only
Allah Allah knows. And as I said before, there are theories about this as to what the function of
these letters are. There are certain things to note, and I'll mention them briefly. For example,
usually, these letters are followed up with by a mention of something to do with why and as we lead
		
00:10:45 --> 00:11:08
			to the book, or the pin, or the revelation, etc, except in two instances, which is Serato room and
surah. Anka booth, they, it's hard to hide but without any mention of why they often. Another thing
to note is Haruka Nakata is only to be found in murky sewer, except in two instances, less the first
two occasions in the Quran
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:54
			that is Surah Al Baqarah and Surah Al imraan. Only in those instances, those two long SWAT madonie.
But the rest of the hydrophone Macaca are actually Mackie SWAT, Mackie and madonie means either it
was revealed before the the hegira or to say revealed after. And that's important because it gives
us a context to understand the surah in the pre hegira period is called Mackie and the post hegira
period is called madonie as opposed to su are being revealed in MK and being revealed in Medina. And
immediately when we say before the general after the hegira. If we know our Syrah, we can think of
what the circumstances were like in that time. So before the hegira, things were very difficult, the
		
00:11:54 --> 00:12:38
			Muslims were a minority, they were struggling, they were under persecution, etc. So it was a great
challenge. in Medina, the challenge was also great, but it changed because they got to a position of
power, they were now in the majority that political power etc. And they were now wars and things
that took place but they were more established as a community surah taco sauce is a Maki surah and
one of the prevalent themes of Maki suar is that he will be a meal reminders of the days of Allah.
Because one of the benefits of these stories or this category, this theme is that you can draw from
it. Come up with an inspiration. If you struggling know that the base of Alaska creation, the
		
00:12:38 --> 00:13:24
			prophets and the messengers they also struggled and by seeing the struggle and how they dealt with
the struggle, we can learn how we should deal with our own struggle. And keeping this in mind
throughout the surah inshallah Allah we can see that the prophet SAW Selim could take comfort from
the struggles of NaVi Moosa with the benissa eel as he himself is going through struggles with
operation at the time. So we move on unless a delicate area to look at bill moving those are the
verses of the open clear that was openly clear book moving from the word began or begun the book is
clear the book is not it's not confusing, you can understand the words net Lu la comm he never he
		
00:13:24 --> 00:14:13
			moves that we Allah recite upon you on Mohammed Salah it was lm min from nabba imusa the stories of
Musa the information or the news of the Mussa, warfare around as well as Pharaoh, Bill Huck, in
truth meaning this is this is the the actual story there's no false who do the comi you've known for
a people who believe this information is going to be for people who believe now who is Moosa? Moosa,
Allison Alyssa to Islam, known as Moses in the Bible, is a prophet of Allah subhanho wa Taala, who
is Farah Farah is Fado. Fado is a title you know, like King, and then you get the phaedo. And we
will come to learn more about these figures. In the story, especially in our second lesson insha
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:58
			Allah we will give some more background information about these individuals. But yeah, we can learn
immediately something that would apply for the rest of our lessons, unless he's really citing it
upon you or Mohammed system with the truth. So when it comes to this theme in the Quran of stories
of the prophets, it's very important that we get our facts straight. If it was mentioned in the
Quran, then of course it's fact if it's mentioned in the authentic a hadith of Rasulullah assassin
then it's fact if it's mentioned by the the great Mufasa rune as reporting from the Sahaba and from
the provinces and in its fact but there is a lot of information that that comes through, especially
		
00:14:58 --> 00:15:00
			with the stories of the prophets that
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:40
			is borrowed from the previous faiths. So the other key tab, and these are called Israel Ilia these
stories, so you see what what an is not a book that gives you every single detail because all the
details are not always important. The Quran is there for a specific purpose. And that's for
guidance, Allah gives you the message that would bring about that guidance for that particular
occasion. And it's important to understand that whatever the detail is that Allah gives you, that is
the most important detail, whatever details he omitted, that's not as important. If the prophets or
something gave you the detail. Alhamdulillah great. But if the Prophet alayhi salaatu wa Salaam in
		
00:15:40 --> 00:16:04
			the Sahaba also didn't give us the detail, then understand that that is not critical for the lesson
that we are supposed to derive. So what what many people do and what many authors do is they go and
borrow from the the the whodunit, Masada and the literature, and they fall in what they believe to
be gaps in the story. And then these gaps tend to be very interesting, very juicy pieces of
information.
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:45
			Because you can you can bring, you can bring something across that nobody else knew about, you've
never heard of before and the video amazing, extreme detail. Understand that you shouldn't sweat the
small stuff, you shouldn't be too bothered about those details. Because if you're going to if you're
going to focus on those things, then you're going to miss out the actual lesson intended by
mentioning this the surah in the first place with the story in the first place. Now Allah emphasizes
that he tells us the story of NaVi musang around with the truth and this is this is how we are going
to take it the Camino and for the people who believe inshallah, we are believing people, we want the
		
00:16:45 --> 00:17:26
			truth. So for for as long as we possibly can, and for as far as we possibly can, we will stick to
what the Quran is saying and what the authentic sources are saying, I might mention something here
for the for the sake of interest, because the Prophet alayhi salatu salam gave us a methodology with
regards to the the stories of the people of the book. And that methodology is basically Landsat
Dooku. When I look at it, if we don't have it in our own sources, and we get it from another source
of the People of the Book, there is no means for us to verify whether it is fact or fiction. And we
cannot also unequivocally state that it is fact no Can you unequivocally state that it is fiction.
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:38
			So our methodology is Lando, South Dakota land Academy, we don't affirm nor do we deny, this will be
our approach in the light Anna for the remainder of our lessons every night.
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:47
			If there's something interesting we'll perhaps mention it but then I should, in my duty say that
this is really a it's coming from other sources.
		
00:17:48 --> 00:18:10
			What we want to learn is number one, who is gonna be Moosa number two, what was his story? number
three? What can we learn from the various incidences in his life? And most importantly, how can we
apply that in our own lives? May Allah Subhana Allah Allah grant us a blessing ramadan ramadan
Kareem, Ramadan Mubarak,
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:54
			we do understand that it's very different, very challenging, we do understand that we will be put
through our tastes late as late as come to terms of the fact that this is our new reality. It's an
abnormal reality, but it's certainly our new reality. The quicker we can accept that the quicker we
can move on. Let us also understand that there's going to be a bit of a missing element because we
don't have that sense of a physical community. An online community is not quite the same. But the
ultimate companion of Ramadan and the ultimate community of Ramadan is the Quran and that is how we
will fill that gap in sha Allah more than we've ever been able to fill it before. May Allah subhanaw
