What do you

method with a very clean eater while
he was semi healthy, yes, we

that
smilla rahmanir rahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen wa Salatu was Salam at a man, Allah, Allah. Allah, Allah.
Allah Allah. He was a busy woman da da da was standing there, the sooner he niomi Dean along aluminum is gonna be my antenna. President I probably should be surgery. We're certainly Emory. Odetta. melissani Kohli, another ad that I'm running Come on warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
Moving on to the next terrible that we have before us.
This is
a method, a comparison that Allah Subhana Allah makes
in Surah
Surah.
And so here in solitude,
verse number 24, the last kind of who with the either compares the two camps,
the two camps of the believers, the disbelievers.
Allah subhanho wa Taala says your meta illusory or unique,
will assume one industry or semi.
The example of the two parties is like the blind and the Deaf, one hand and the seeing hearing on the other. And so we are limited to the two or the two equal in comparison
to that rule, then will you not be Will you not be mindful?
Prior to this verse in solitude,
we're to look at the context of this comparison that Allah gives us here in verse number 24.
Allah subhanho wa Donna
walkabout inland,
the descriptions many different characteristics and descriptions of the coupon
and then Allah subhanahu wa sallam in in one of their descriptions of loss of habitat. He said, Man, we are stuck here in a seminar. One of
these disbelievers
they failed to hear or see.
They could not hear nor could they see meaning the truth.
They could not hear nor did they see the fruits. So this is one of the descriptions that Allah mentions here, about the Kufa that is
then Allah subhanho wa Taala after mentioning all Domini is far
after all of that alone mentions one is concerning the belief.
That is the idea right before right before the philosopher who says regarding the believers in alladhina amanu Welcome euro solly had
to eat out of
Indeed, those who believed and did purchase pretty and they humbled those who their Lord
and they humble themselves.
Then after that Allah mentions this.
Though it says if I was the one who attended
Boca Boca for telling us you know who the disbelievers are, and then in one iota tells us who the believers are
at the very end to conclude the matter to summarize
the comparison between these two camps, Allah subhanahu wa tada says, method will be unique as well awesome.
What about
law says sample dear example
Example of the disbelievers. And the example of the believer
is like
the blind, the Deaf, eating the disbelievers.
And
the one who can see perfectly here perfectly the believer.
And so Allah subhanho wa Taala compares the disbelievers to someone who is blind and deaf.
Someone who is blind and deaf.
Why? Because their eye
and also their hearts
are blinded from the truth.
And your ears are deaf from hearing.
So just like a blind and a deaf person,
blind and a deaf person.
What would be his fate in this like?
Someone who cannot see anything but not hearing?
How would he be able to live in this world?
wherever he goes, he would be lost. You will be confused. Not knowing where to go. Why? Because
he can't hear.
Sometimes he'll go and hit a wall. Other times he'll tripped over a stone or rock.
He's always in a state of confusion in dark.
Likewise, is the state of the far
the disbelief.
The disbelievers who have rejected
the disbelievers who are stubborn on their wings.
not want
your seat is
wandering around in his life and few in darkness.
And these are
the praise Allah subhanho wa Taala Mencius
turning a disbeliever
that they are blind, they are deaf. Boone Bookman, neuroimmune, for whom, la your god
that they are blind, they are deaf or dumb, they will not turn
the homeless,
they cannot see
the homeless and they cannot
stand.
And Allah subhanho wa Taala also tells us about the bar that they are living in
one or the other.
So this is the state of the dispute.
Method a little tiny, L and L are some
law says the example of the two parties is party a bar. They are like
one who is debt, one who is blind and one was dead.
How about the believer?
Well don't care.
And to be party be the believers? What is their example? Their example will last as is like one who can see here perfect. the complete opposite of the other party.
And so it was kind of huhtala compares the believers to one who can see and hear why. Because their eyes and also their hearts.
He's a true
in recognize,
and their ears can hear the truth,
then except
that's the only difference.
Too far is that they have not heard the message of spam, or they have not heard the or an or that he cannot recognize the truth for what it is.
They know the truth. For those who, you know, Islam has been presented to them clearly with its evidences.
The problem is that they can the problem is not that they don't recognize the truth but a lack of
a lack of acceptance.
And that's why it was so hard and who therefore tells us the reality is that they can't see nor can they hear or can they recognize the truth
is if they could hear it, if they could see it. If they could recognize it, then they would have submitted they would have accepted it.
That is the case of the believer. He sees that. He recognizes it. He hears it submitted
With
just like a person in this world who
can hear perfect,
without any defect in his Faculty of
hearing,
what is his state in this dunya
function with the proper human being?
Ever he goes,
he is bringing benefits of why, because of this blessing of being able to see and hear.
And he's able to stay away from that which will harm him.
He's not like the Deaf, and the blind. wherever he goes, he's in a problem. He's confused, he doesn't know where to go. He's tripping over things. He's hitting interesting.
And then after that was kind of hotel rooms the idea
by negating any quality between these two parties, between these two camps
or these
are the equal
and they be compared to one another. Can we say that camp a is just like me? So we animus Allah?
Can the one who is blind?
Can he be compared to the one who can see perfectly?
And the one who could end up can the deaf person be compared to the one
who can hear perfectly?
This is a rhetorical question the answer is obviously no. cannot be compared.
Then or concludes,
then will you not
be mindful? Will you not
give heed?
These are reminders for people who will be keyed
into Allah subhanho wa Taala gives us this
comparison between the two paths, the believers and the display
and a loss of Hannah who went to Allah 1400 years have
made the comparison or made the difference between the two year
we're
in such a yet
that will be receded until the day of just
even though today we have people
who
want to say that no.
We're equal.
These two parties, these two camps are equal.
Let us come
and agree on common ground.
Let us forget about our difference.
In the end, we are human beings. And there should be no
difference between us on the lines of faith,
the lines of religion.
You have so many people today who are calling for them. Unfortunately Muslim,
we're calling for such ID.
And so among the lessons that we learn from this comparison, was kind of a mix here
is first of all,
that Allah subhanho wa Taala refers to the believers as those who can see and hear
even if the believer is actually blind and deaf in reality.
And so real blindness
real blindness and real death
is not the physical blindness definitely
the real blindness, real death
is
blindness and the deafness of those
either hearing, thereby accent and that's why we have many Muslims who may be blind
cannot see or they may be deaf here. But yes, your Eman is stronger than many Muslims who can see perfectly and here
And so it was Hannah who with data refers to the believers, as those who can see, you can hear.
Imagine a blind person, a blind Muslim, or a deaf Muslim was to come across this area.
How do you make a deal that was referring to me? In someone who thinks
you're perfect?
Why? Because
he sees the truth, and he hears the truth.
So this is because they follow the truth, regardless of how they received the truth.
And so if they were blind, maybe they could not read the Quran.
But perhaps they heard it, their ears heard the message and they accept
or they are deaf
here, but they could dream up, they read something about the
so it doesn't matter how the message reach them.
What matters is when the message reach them,
how do they react
with the
odd region.
And so on the other hand, the disbelievers a lot referred to them as blind and deaf, even if,
even if these disbelievers can see perfectly in here,
because
they did not benefit from these factors of hearing, and seeing when the truth came to them. And so, it was through these faculties of sight and hearing
that they were
that they rejected. That's why I was a fan of who first of them as the blind and
the second lesson that we learned from this method is comparison is
the fact that
the call to
peacefully coexist
this Paul,
for religious pluralism
that let us all unite irrespective of our religious differences, our beliefs,
let us all unite gettable our differences,
this call
runs contrary to what Allah has revealed in the crowd.
And so, such all these new files
because clashes between
or because
this is this clash between a man and Kufa
is a clash that is real.
It is a class that is real.
Not because I said or so and so smaller said no. There's a lesson of who tada
actually in the
end, so
it started 1400 years ago, it started before that. But
it became set in stone 1400 years ago, when it was revealed
and it will continue to be recited.
And so for example, a lot revealed in the Quran
in surah, zero
Allah subhanho wa Taala addresses the kuffaar hufa
curfew.
Now I will do my taboo.
When were these verses revealed to the Prophet Allahu Allah,
they will reveal to him at a time when
the Missouri School Board
asked him optimize on his beliefs.
He said let us unite.
Let us forget about these differences.
We will compromise and you also compromise
let us agree
that
we will forget about our gods our idols for one year and worship your God. And you Oh Mohammed, do the same
except our God for one
and so it was
With in this court
these
two will reveal to the law
will allow me to clear
that that which I worship is not the same as
that which I worship
is not the same as love to worship that which new worship is not the same as that which I worship, nor will it ever be the ultimate loser surah saying, Let de nukem Walia de for you is your religion, he is mine. Now there are people today, who will dump on this verse.
Look,
Your Honor, who is saying, leave the bar, let them you know, let them worship whatever they want boss God.
And we also
only worship Allah we, you know, this way we can peacefully coexist.
And then use this verse
they use they try to use it.
For and for a for a purpose. that runs completely contrary, the purpose behind why Allah revealed.
So think about
this, this verse and this tour was actually reveal
the purpose of revealing the purpose why Allah set these down,
was
make the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam this associate himself from shift, and we should
not bring them closer, not
to
compromise with them, and to accept them be accepting of them, no
disassociated from shift and it's
not for the sake of religious pluralism, not for the sake of
unity of the religions and bringing us closer together.
And so these are Yahoo revealed to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in Makkah.
He revealed
then the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam migrated to Medina.
Then, for many years, he returned the mecca
offering Mecca
entering the Kaaba
was
not seeing to the Muslim moon,
that you have your religion continue worshiping your idols, we have our religion
you know, yes, we have the upper hand now. Therefore,
let us peacefully coexist.
He returned to me
entering the caliber and destroying the hundreds of idols that were
destroying the hundreds of the idols that were in it.
And so,
in this comparison that Allah gives us in here's what
we learn, that
camps
are two separate
they are two separate camps. And never can a believer be compared with
in the sight of a loss of owner who is the harlot.
They are two opposites.
That can never be considered as being
in the sight of Allah subhanho wa Taala they can never be considered Ian.
So we animus data
are the equal and they be considered as being equal? Or for question. Answer of which is not
