We continue with our series on the,

00:02:04 --> 00:02:06

most beautiful names of Allah,

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

Asma'ualla

00:02:08 --> 00:02:09

al Husna.

00:02:11 --> 00:02:13

And so far, we've covered some of the

00:02:13 --> 00:02:14

most important

00:02:15 --> 00:02:16

names of Allah,

00:02:18 --> 00:02:19

and we continue

00:02:21 --> 00:02:23

we continue on to,

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26

tonight to discuss other important,

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

names of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

00:02:31 --> 00:02:33

And as I mentioned previously, the way we're

00:02:33 --> 00:02:34

gonna do it is

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

we're gonna try to bring together,

00:02:38 --> 00:02:39

those names that,

00:02:41 --> 00:02:42

revolve around the same,

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

meaning.

00:02:48 --> 00:02:51

And obviously mentioning the differences between those names.

00:02:52 --> 00:02:54

But in general, we're gonna try to bring

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

together

00:02:55 --> 00:02:57

those names that have similar meanings and discuss

00:02:57 --> 00:02:58

them

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

as,

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

you know,

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

1 attribute of Allah

00:03:04 --> 00:03:06

because they all refer to the same,

00:03:06 --> 00:03:07

the same attribute.

00:03:09 --> 00:03:12

And so today, we have 2

00:03:12 --> 00:03:14

sets of names that we're gonna talk about.

00:03:15 --> 00:03:16

The first

00:03:17 --> 00:03:19

are 4 names that we have.

00:03:21 --> 00:03:22

These 4 names,

00:03:23 --> 00:03:24

they all refer to

00:03:26 --> 00:03:27

Allah being the Creator.

00:03:38 --> 00:03:39

Al Khalak,

00:03:40 --> 00:03:41

Al Khalak,

00:03:42 --> 00:03:43

Al Bari,

00:03:43 --> 00:03:45

and Al Musawir.

00:03:49 --> 00:03:51

And so Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

00:03:51 --> 00:03:52

has identified

00:03:52 --> 00:03:54

himself as being the creator

00:03:56 --> 00:03:56

Numerous times

00:03:57 --> 00:03:59

in the Quran throughout the Quran.

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

Whether he's a creator of us human beings

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

or

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

the creator of

00:04:06 --> 00:04:07

the creation in general.

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

As for 3 of these names,

00:04:15 --> 00:04:16

3 of these names,

00:04:17 --> 00:04:18

they come together in 1 ayah.

00:04:19 --> 00:04:20

Who knows that ayah?

00:04:22 --> 00:04:24

They're mentioned 1 after the other in the

00:04:24 --> 00:04:27

same ayah. Do you know Surat Al Hashut?

00:04:27 --> 00:04:29

Yeah. In Surat Al Hashut.

00:04:31 --> 00:04:33

So in Surat Al Hashud, the very end

00:04:33 --> 00:04:35

of Surat Al Hashud, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,

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

he

00:04:37 --> 00:04:40

lists several of His names, about 17.

00:04:41 --> 00:04:44

And among them are these 3 names. Allah

00:04:44 --> 00:04:44

says,

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

He is Allah

00:04:53 --> 00:04:54

Al Khalik the creator.

00:04:55 --> 00:04:56

Al Bari

00:04:58 --> 00:04:59

the 1 who invents

00:05:01 --> 00:05:02

and Al Musawir

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

the 1 who

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

fashions or

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

shapes.

00:05:07 --> 00:05:10

And we're gonna talk about the differences between

00:05:10 --> 00:05:11

these names later on.

00:05:11 --> 00:05:12

As for Al Khalaq,

00:05:13 --> 00:05:15

then it has been mentioned twice in the

00:05:15 --> 00:05:15

Quran.

00:05:18 --> 00:05:20

And that is first of all in Surat

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

Al Hajjur.

00:05:26 --> 00:05:28

Surah Al Hajjur verse

00:05:29 --> 00:05:29

86.

00:05:30 --> 00:05:32

Allah says that

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

your Lord

00:05:34 --> 00:05:34

is indeed

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

Al Khalaq,

00:05:37 --> 00:05:37

the creator

00:05:38 --> 00:05:40

and Al Alim, the all knowing.

00:05:41 --> 00:05:43

And the other place Al Khalak is mentioned

00:05:44 --> 00:05:45

is in Surah

00:05:45 --> 00:05:46

Yaseem.

00:05:46 --> 00:05:46

Surah Yaseem,

00:05:48 --> 00:05:50

towards the end verse 81.

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

Can the 1 who created the heavens and

00:06:02 --> 00:06:03

the earth

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

not easily,

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

you know,

00:06:07 --> 00:06:09

recreate these people?

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

Alalim.

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

Yes. For he is

00:06:16 --> 00:06:18

the creator of Khalak and

00:06:19 --> 00:06:20

the most knowing.

00:06:22 --> 00:06:25

So Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is the creator

00:06:25 --> 00:06:26

of everything

00:06:27 --> 00:06:28

without exception.

00:06:30 --> 00:06:32

And there is no creator besides him.

00:06:33 --> 00:06:36

There is no creator besides Allah.

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

And so we have Allah

00:06:42 --> 00:06:44

and we have his creation.

00:06:46 --> 00:06:49

Everything besides Allah is his creation.

00:06:50 --> 00:06:53

Everything besides Allah, his very being

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

and that includes

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

his names and his attributes.

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

Everything besides that is his creation.

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

But anything related to Allah like his attributes,

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

we do not say any of that is

00:07:08 --> 00:07:09

created.

00:07:13 --> 00:07:15

As opposed to some of the sects of

00:07:15 --> 00:07:16

the past who said

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

that no.

00:07:18 --> 00:07:20

For example, the speech of Allah which is

00:07:20 --> 00:07:21

an attribute of His,

00:07:22 --> 00:07:25

They said that the Quran is

00:07:25 --> 00:07:26

created.

00:07:27 --> 00:07:29

It is the created word of Allah. Allah

00:07:29 --> 00:07:30

created it.

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

But the point is that everything besides Allah

00:07:34 --> 00:07:36

and His attributes is His creation.

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

But Allah Himself and His attributes are uncreated.

00:07:42 --> 00:07:45

And the evidence for this is pretty clear

00:07:46 --> 00:07:49

throughout the Quran. For example, Allah says, Allahu

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

khalikukulishay.

00:07:51 --> 00:07:53

Allah created everything.

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

Everything.

00:07:55 --> 00:07:57

That that means without any exception.

00:08:01 --> 00:08:03

If that is the case, that Allah is

00:08:04 --> 00:08:05

the creator,

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

then the question is

00:08:12 --> 00:08:13

can

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

Al Khalq or creation

00:08:16 --> 00:08:17

be attributed

00:08:17 --> 00:08:19

to anyone besides Allah?

00:08:22 --> 00:08:23

So can we say

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

I created,

00:08:25 --> 00:08:27

you know, whatever

00:08:28 --> 00:08:29

this product, for example.

00:08:31 --> 00:08:34

Can we attribute creation to ourselves or not?

00:08:34 --> 00:08:36

What? It means like

00:08:36 --> 00:08:37

crushing something from something else?

00:08:43 --> 00:08:45

Okay. Anyone else?

00:08:47 --> 00:08:49

Can we attribute

00:08:50 --> 00:08:52

creation to anyone besides Allah? Because we've just

00:08:52 --> 00:08:55

explained right now that Allah is the sole

00:08:55 --> 00:08:55

creator.

00:08:58 --> 00:09:00

Right? So the answer is no.

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

Okay.

00:09:01 --> 00:09:02

In the Quran,

00:09:04 --> 00:09:06

Allah refers to himself as

00:09:12 --> 00:09:13

Allah says

00:09:17 --> 00:09:19

He said this after He

00:09:19 --> 00:09:20

mentioned

00:09:21 --> 00:09:24

how he created us from a sperm.

00:09:26 --> 00:09:27

And then how,

00:09:27 --> 00:09:29

you know, the stages of

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

our creation in the wombs of our mothers.

00:09:52 --> 00:09:54

So blessed is Allah.

00:09:55 --> 00:09:58

What is Asanu Khaliqin mean? The best of

00:09:58 --> 00:09:58

creators.

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

The best

00:10:01 --> 00:10:01

of creators.

00:10:02 --> 00:10:03

So here

00:10:04 --> 00:10:06

what Allah is saying is that he is

00:10:06 --> 00:10:08

the best of those who create, meaning

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

that we can attribute creation to others.

00:10:12 --> 00:10:14

But here we have to understand what

00:10:15 --> 00:10:16

we mean. And so,

00:10:18 --> 00:10:20

creation can mean 1 of 2 things as

00:10:20 --> 00:10:21

the brother mentioned.

00:10:21 --> 00:10:24

Creation can mean 1 of 2 things.

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

Number 1,

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

to bring something into existence

00:10:31 --> 00:10:34

from nothing and to invent it without any

00:10:34 --> 00:10:35

president.

00:10:36 --> 00:10:38

To create something

00:10:39 --> 00:10:39

from nothing

00:10:41 --> 00:10:43

and to invent something

00:10:43 --> 00:10:45

without precedent. Meaning,

00:10:45 --> 00:10:46

there's nothing like it

00:10:48 --> 00:10:50

prior to you creating it.

00:10:52 --> 00:10:53

And this is only Allah.

00:10:54 --> 00:10:57

This is only attributed to Allah.

00:10:58 --> 00:10:59

The second

00:11:00 --> 00:11:02

meaning of creation is

00:11:03 --> 00:11:06

creating and invented things, inventing things,

00:11:07 --> 00:11:09

out of other things that already exist.

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

So,

00:11:14 --> 00:11:16

you know, what do we create?

00:11:17 --> 00:11:18

What do we, human beings,

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

invent and manufacture?

00:11:23 --> 00:11:26

We make things out of material that already

00:11:26 --> 00:11:26

exists

00:11:28 --> 00:11:29

from metal, from wood

00:11:31 --> 00:11:32

and so on and so forth.

00:11:33 --> 00:11:36

You know, even the materials that we have

00:11:36 --> 00:11:36

today

00:11:40 --> 00:11:41

Like, let's say plastic,

00:11:41 --> 00:11:43

right? Even that is

00:11:43 --> 00:11:44

molded from

00:11:46 --> 00:11:47

from natural resources.

00:11:49 --> 00:11:52

And all of those natural resources are created

00:11:52 --> 00:11:53

by Allah.

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

Right?

00:11:57 --> 00:11:57

So,

00:11:58 --> 00:12:00

we can attribute creation to

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

ourselves. However,

00:12:03 --> 00:12:05

we need to understand the difference between these

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

2 kinds

00:12:07 --> 00:12:07

of creation.

00:12:08 --> 00:12:11

So the ultimate creator is none but Allah

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

subhanahu

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

wa ta'ala.

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

So now what is the difference between these

00:12:16 --> 00:12:17

4 names

00:12:18 --> 00:12:19

that we have mentioned?

00:12:20 --> 00:12:21

Al Khalikh, Al Khalak,

00:12:24 --> 00:12:26

Al Bari, and Al Musawir.

00:12:28 --> 00:12:29

Al Khaliq

00:12:30 --> 00:12:31

is the creator.

00:12:32 --> 00:12:33

The 1 who

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

decrees

00:12:36 --> 00:12:39

existence for his creation before bringing them

00:12:40 --> 00:12:41

into existence.

00:12:42 --> 00:12:43

He had decreed

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

already

00:12:45 --> 00:12:46

before he created you.

00:12:46 --> 00:12:48

He already decreed

00:12:48 --> 00:12:51

and wrote it that you're gonna be created.

00:12:53 --> 00:12:55

And that is based on his knowledge and

00:12:55 --> 00:12:55

his wisdom.

00:12:56 --> 00:12:58

So Al Khalikh is the creator.

00:13:03 --> 00:13:06

And this is, you know, in in in

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

Arabic

00:13:09 --> 00:13:10

on the scale of Tharib,

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

which means the doer.

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

As for Al Khalaq, it is on the

00:13:16 --> 00:13:17

scale of Thaal,

00:13:19 --> 00:13:21

which is And we've mentioned this previously.

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

What is al fa'al?

00:13:25 --> 00:13:28

What is the connotation there that is given?

00:13:28 --> 00:13:30

It's not just the doer, but

00:13:34 --> 00:13:36

Yeah. Someone who is

00:13:37 --> 00:13:38

described as

00:13:39 --> 00:13:40

continuously doing the thing or,

00:13:42 --> 00:13:43

he he

00:13:43 --> 00:13:46

he's gone to the max in that particular

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

attribute.

00:13:48 --> 00:13:49

So

00:13:49 --> 00:13:52

Al Khalaq is the 1 who

00:13:52 --> 00:13:54

constantly creates to no end.

00:13:55 --> 00:13:56

Al Khalaq

00:13:57 --> 00:13:59

is the 1 who constantly creates

00:13:59 --> 00:14:01

to no end.

00:14:06 --> 00:14:07

As for Albari,

00:14:10 --> 00:14:11

then Al Bari means

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

the inventor

00:14:16 --> 00:14:19

who brings his creation into existence from nothing.

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

The inventor

00:14:23 --> 00:14:24

who

00:14:24 --> 00:14:25

brings

00:14:27 --> 00:14:29

His creation into existence

00:14:31 --> 00:14:32

from nothing.

00:14:37 --> 00:14:39

And prior to existing.

00:14:41 --> 00:14:43

K. And and this is the difference between

00:14:45 --> 00:14:46

what we mentioned,

00:14:46 --> 00:14:48

where we can be attributed with creation,

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

and that it is different than the creation

00:14:51 --> 00:14:53

of Allah. This is the difference.

00:14:54 --> 00:14:56

This is the difference.

00:14:56 --> 00:14:58

Only Allah is the 1 who creates from

00:14:58 --> 00:14:59

nothing.

00:14:59 --> 00:15:02

As for us, whatever we create, whatever we

00:15:02 --> 00:15:03

make, whatever we manufacture,

00:15:04 --> 00:15:06

it is created from things that

00:15:06 --> 00:15:08

we did not create. Right?

00:15:11 --> 00:15:12

All he has to do is say, kun

00:15:12 --> 00:15:13

faya kun.

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

You know, it's not a process for Allah,

00:15:18 --> 00:15:20

where he has to sit down and plan,

00:15:23 --> 00:15:25

you know, how he's gonna create something.

00:15:26 --> 00:15:28

He just has to say be and there

00:15:28 --> 00:15:29

it is.

00:15:30 --> 00:15:31

Right?

00:15:32 --> 00:15:34

And that's 1 of the arguments that Allah

00:15:34 --> 00:15:35

uses in the Quran

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

to refute

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

the

00:15:38 --> 00:15:39

christians who claim that,

00:15:42 --> 00:15:43

the A'isa

00:15:43 --> 00:15:45

was the son of Allah because they couldn't

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

fathom the idea that a person can exist

00:15:48 --> 00:15:49

without a father.

00:15:52 --> 00:15:53

So Allah refutes them

00:15:56 --> 00:15:59

by mentioning that 'Isa alayhis salam

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

was

00:16:01 --> 00:16:03

the word of Allah. That's the meaning of

00:16:03 --> 00:16:06

'Isa alayhis salam being the word of Allah.

00:16:07 --> 00:16:09

Kalima Tim Minhu,

00:16:10 --> 00:16:11

and that

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

Kalima, that word is Kun,

00:16:15 --> 00:16:17

Be and there he was in the womb

00:16:17 --> 00:16:19

of his mother, Mariam.

00:16:21 --> 00:16:22

As for Al

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

Musawir,

00:16:24 --> 00:16:25

then that is the fashioner

00:16:28 --> 00:16:29

who gives

00:16:29 --> 00:16:33

every creation its particular distinct unique

00:16:34 --> 00:16:35

shape or form.

00:16:44 --> 00:16:46

As opposed to us when we manufacture things,

00:16:46 --> 00:16:48

they're pretty much identical.

00:16:51 --> 00:16:54

But Allah, Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, look at how,

00:16:56 --> 00:16:58

look at how He creates.

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

Where,

00:17:02 --> 00:17:03

you know, science

00:17:04 --> 00:17:05

has taught us a lot of things about

00:17:06 --> 00:17:07

our own creation today,

00:17:11 --> 00:17:14

And that is that every single human being

00:17:15 --> 00:17:16

has

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

a unique fingerprint.

00:17:20 --> 00:17:22

And there are no 2 fingers and 2

00:17:22 --> 00:17:24

fingerprints that are identical.

00:17:28 --> 00:17:30

And here we're talking about

00:17:31 --> 00:17:32

not just a few people,

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

not just a couple of a 100 or

00:17:35 --> 00:17:37

a couple of 1, 000. We're talking about

00:17:37 --> 00:17:38

in the 1, 000, 000, 000 and trillions

00:17:38 --> 00:17:40

from Adam alaihis salam until the day of

00:17:40 --> 00:17:41

judgment.

00:17:41 --> 00:17:44

Every human being is different than the other.

00:17:46 --> 00:17:48

And that is the meaning of Allah being

00:17:48 --> 00:17:49

the Musawear.

00:17:50 --> 00:17:53

He fashions. He gives you a particular unique,

00:17:55 --> 00:17:55

distinct,

00:17:56 --> 00:17:57

form

00:17:57 --> 00:17:58

and shape.

00:17:59 --> 00:18:00

Even 2 twins

00:18:02 --> 00:18:03

who even if we were to say they're

00:18:03 --> 00:18:05

identical twins,

00:18:06 --> 00:18:08

to us they seem to be identical,

00:18:08 --> 00:18:10

but they have a lot of things that

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

are different

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

that makes each unique.

00:18:14 --> 00:18:16

And so this is al Muzawir.

00:18:17 --> 00:18:20

What do they what do these 4 names

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

teach us?

00:18:21 --> 00:18:22

First of all,

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

Allah

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

is

00:18:28 --> 00:18:29

the creator

00:18:30 --> 00:18:33

who brought this creation into existence

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

from nothing.

00:18:36 --> 00:18:38

And this is something that is recognized by

00:18:38 --> 00:18:39

everyone.

00:18:40 --> 00:18:42

This is something that

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

practically

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

everyone

00:18:45 --> 00:18:48

it's part of their fitra, their innate nature

00:18:48 --> 00:18:49

to recognize it,

00:18:51 --> 00:18:52

to acknowledge it.

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

And that's why throughout the Quran,

00:19:01 --> 00:19:05

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala uses this attribute of

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

his,

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

of Halk,

00:19:08 --> 00:19:09

to disprove

00:19:11 --> 00:19:13

worshiping others.

00:19:15 --> 00:19:16

To disprove

00:19:16 --> 00:19:17

the worship of others.

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

And so for example, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:19:22 --> 00:19:23

says,

00:19:27 --> 00:19:28

Allah

00:19:34 --> 00:19:37

Allah asks a very simple question here,

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

is there a creator other than Allah who

00:19:40 --> 00:19:41

provides

00:19:41 --> 00:19:43

for you from the heavens and the earth?

00:19:43 --> 00:19:44

So here's the question.

00:19:45 --> 00:19:47

Is there any creator

00:19:47 --> 00:19:49

besides Allah who gives to you, who provides

00:19:49 --> 00:19:50

for you?

00:19:52 --> 00:19:54

From the heavens and the earth. What does

00:19:54 --> 00:19:55

Allah say right after that?

00:19:56 --> 00:19:57

La ilaha illa,

00:19:58 --> 00:20:00

There is none except Him.

00:20:01 --> 00:20:04

There is no God, deity who deserves to

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

be worshiped

00:20:05 --> 00:20:06

except Him.

00:20:08 --> 00:20:09

And,

00:20:09 --> 00:20:12

you know, similar ayat in the Quran. We

00:20:12 --> 00:20:14

have many similar ayat in the Quran.

00:20:15 --> 00:20:16

The point here

00:20:17 --> 00:20:19

is that everyone recognizes

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

that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:20:23 --> 00:20:25

is the sole creator

00:20:27 --> 00:20:28

No matter what religion they follow,

00:20:29 --> 00:20:32

even if they are idol worshipers and they're,

00:20:32 --> 00:20:33

you know, they're

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

not monotheists,

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

they have some form of belief in a

00:20:42 --> 00:20:43

greater being,

00:20:46 --> 00:20:47

the greater God

00:20:49 --> 00:20:51

who created everything.

00:20:54 --> 00:20:55

And

00:20:55 --> 00:20:56

even the Quraysh

00:20:58 --> 00:20:59

and the Arabs of Jahilia,

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

they recognized

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

that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is the only

00:21:05 --> 00:21:06

sole creator.

00:21:09 --> 00:21:11

And when we look back at,

00:21:11 --> 00:21:12

you know,

00:21:13 --> 00:21:14

human civilization,

00:21:15 --> 00:21:16

We find that

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

You know, throughout time, no 1 really denied

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

that there is a creator.

00:21:26 --> 00:21:28

It was only in our present time

00:21:28 --> 00:21:30

where you have atheists

00:21:30 --> 00:21:31

who

00:21:31 --> 00:21:33

deny their existence of a creator.

00:21:37 --> 00:21:38

But historically,

00:21:40 --> 00:21:42

this has been an agreed upon belief.

00:21:43 --> 00:21:45

No 1 denied it. There were rare cases,

00:21:46 --> 00:21:48

rare individuals throughout history who may have

00:21:49 --> 00:21:51

been what you can call an atheist.

00:21:52 --> 00:21:54

But was it something widespread? No.

00:21:55 --> 00:21:56

And that's why

00:21:58 --> 00:22:00

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala did not send the

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

prophets and the messengers

00:22:03 --> 00:22:05

to tell the people

00:22:05 --> 00:22:08

about who he is and that he exists.

00:22:09 --> 00:22:10

Right?

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

Why?

00:22:14 --> 00:22:15

Because it was a common belief.

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

Right?

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

So why did Allah send the prophets and

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

the messengers?

00:22:25 --> 00:22:26

To basically

00:22:27 --> 00:22:28

tell the people

00:22:28 --> 00:22:30

that this God that you recognize, that you

00:22:30 --> 00:22:33

know, this creator that you recognize, that you

00:22:33 --> 00:22:33

believe

00:22:34 --> 00:22:36

in, he alone deserves to be worshiped.

00:22:37 --> 00:22:37

Right?

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

He alone deserves to be worshiped.

00:22:41 --> 00:22:43

That's why Allah says about the messengers, what

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

did they say to their people? Surat Ibrahiem.

00:22:55 --> 00:22:58

The messenger said to their people, is there

00:22:58 --> 00:22:59

any doubt

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

about Allah,

00:23:02 --> 00:23:03

the creator of the heavens and earth?

00:23:05 --> 00:23:07

Right? It's not something that the people doubted

00:23:07 --> 00:23:08

or denied.

00:23:11 --> 00:23:13

And so atheism as we find it today

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

is a new phenomenon

00:23:14 --> 00:23:16

that never existed in the past.

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

The point here

00:23:18 --> 00:23:20

is that everyone recognizes this

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

and so coming to the the second point

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

here

00:23:25 --> 00:23:27

to follow-up on the first point,

00:23:28 --> 00:23:31

we say that believing in Allah as the

00:23:31 --> 00:23:32

sole creator

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

which we said is a common belief.

00:23:35 --> 00:23:36

It necessitates

00:23:38 --> 00:23:39

believing in Him as

00:23:40 --> 00:23:42

the only 1 who deserves to be worshipped

00:23:43 --> 00:23:45

And this is something we mentioned previously,

00:23:46 --> 00:23:47

when we spoke about which name of Allah?

00:23:50 --> 00:23:51

Arrub.

00:23:52 --> 00:23:52

Right?

00:23:53 --> 00:23:54

Because,

00:23:55 --> 00:23:56

Al Khalk,

00:23:57 --> 00:23:59

creation is an attribute of Rububiya.

00:24:01 --> 00:24:04

Right? We mentioned when we spoke about Allah's

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

name Arrab

00:24:05 --> 00:24:06

that it means

00:24:06 --> 00:24:07

several things.

00:24:08 --> 00:24:10

It means that Allah is the creator

00:24:10 --> 00:24:11

and the provider

00:24:11 --> 00:24:13

and the 1 who controls

00:24:13 --> 00:24:14

his creation, etcetera.

00:24:16 --> 00:24:18

So we mentioned then

00:24:18 --> 00:24:19

that if you believe

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

in

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

1 Rabb

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

who created everything, who provides for you etcetera,

00:24:28 --> 00:24:29

then that belief necessitates

00:24:30 --> 00:24:31

logically, it necessitates

00:24:32 --> 00:24:34

that you believe that only 1

00:24:36 --> 00:24:38

God and that being him deserves to be

00:24:38 --> 00:24:39

worshipped.

00:24:44 --> 00:24:47

Again, this is something that Allah uses in

00:24:47 --> 00:24:48

the Quran to refute.

00:24:48 --> 00:24:49

The Mushrikoon

00:24:49 --> 00:24:51

who recognize him

00:24:51 --> 00:24:53

as being the sole creator,

00:24:53 --> 00:24:55

but then they worship others

00:24:56 --> 00:24:56

who

00:24:58 --> 00:24:59

cannot create,

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

who cannot provide,

00:25:02 --> 00:25:04

who cannot give life, who cannot

00:25:04 --> 00:25:06

cause death, etcetera.

00:25:07 --> 00:25:08

As Allah says,

00:25:18 --> 00:25:20

Do they associate partners with Allah?

00:25:21 --> 00:25:22

These gods, these idols

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

which cannot create anything

00:25:26 --> 00:25:27

and they themselves are created?

00:25:28 --> 00:25:30

You know, look at the argument here. Look

00:25:30 --> 00:25:31

at how powerful it is.

00:25:32 --> 00:25:33

Look at how simple it is.

00:25:34 --> 00:25:35

Look at how logical it is.

00:25:37 --> 00:25:40

Do these people associate partners with Allah?

00:25:43 --> 00:25:45

Idols which cannot create anything?

00:25:47 --> 00:25:49

Which cannot create anything.

00:25:50 --> 00:25:52

And yet they themselves are created.

00:25:53 --> 00:25:54

You

00:25:56 --> 00:25:57

know, not only

00:25:58 --> 00:26:00

can they not create which is an essential

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

attribute

00:26:02 --> 00:26:03

of the Lord,

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

the Rab.

00:26:07 --> 00:26:09

And not only that, but they themselves are

00:26:09 --> 00:26:10

created by

00:26:11 --> 00:26:11

that Rab.

00:26:14 --> 00:26:16

And this is in Surah Al Arab.

00:26:17 --> 00:26:19

Surah Al Arab verse 191.

00:26:21 --> 00:26:23

And in many other places in the Quran.

00:26:23 --> 00:26:25

Many places in the Quran, Allah says

00:26:33 --> 00:26:35

If you were to ask them who created

00:26:35 --> 00:26:37

the heavens and the earth? Who did such

00:26:37 --> 00:26:39

and such? Who did such and such? They

00:26:39 --> 00:26:41

will say Allah. They will say

00:26:42 --> 00:26:42

Allah.

00:26:43 --> 00:26:45

And so even the Mushrikoon

00:26:46 --> 00:26:48

who, you know, the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam

00:26:48 --> 00:26:48

was sent to.

00:26:50 --> 00:26:50

They recognize

00:26:51 --> 00:26:51

that

00:26:52 --> 00:26:53

Allah is a sole creator

00:26:54 --> 00:26:55

but their problem was

00:26:56 --> 00:26:58

they did not believe that He alone deserves

00:26:58 --> 00:26:58

to be worshipped.

00:26:59 --> 00:26:59

However,

00:27:00 --> 00:27:01

Allah uses

00:27:01 --> 00:27:02

their belief.

00:27:03 --> 00:27:06

Right? He uses their belief against them.

00:27:07 --> 00:27:08

He uses their belief

00:27:10 --> 00:27:11

in Allah as being the creator

00:27:12 --> 00:27:13

to prove them wrong,

00:27:14 --> 00:27:15

to prove to them

00:27:16 --> 00:27:16

that

00:27:17 --> 00:27:18

it only logically makes sense

00:27:19 --> 00:27:21

that if you believe there's only 1 creator

00:27:21 --> 00:27:23

that you worship that 1 creator.

00:27:23 --> 00:27:25

And so that's what we mean when we

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

say

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

that belief in these names of Allah

00:27:29 --> 00:27:30

necessitates

00:27:30 --> 00:27:32

belief in Allah's Uluhiya.

00:27:33 --> 00:27:34

Uluhiya means

00:27:35 --> 00:27:36

that Allah alone deserves

00:27:36 --> 00:27:37

to be worshipped.

00:27:41 --> 00:27:43

Moving on to the next point,

00:27:46 --> 00:27:48

Believing in Allah as the creator

00:27:51 --> 00:27:52

means that you believe

00:27:53 --> 00:27:55

he created everything,

00:27:56 --> 00:27:58

and due to a wisdom and a reason

00:27:58 --> 00:27:59

and a purpose.

00:28:01 --> 00:28:03

And not that his creation

00:28:04 --> 00:28:05

is without purpose.

00:28:10 --> 00:28:11

Why?

00:28:13 --> 00:28:15

Why is it necessary to believe that?

00:28:44 --> 00:28:44

Okay.

00:28:46 --> 00:28:46

Yeah.

00:28:54 --> 00:28:55

Yeah.

00:29:05 --> 00:29:06

This is in Surah Al Anbiya.

00:29:07 --> 00:29:09

We do not create the heavens and the

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

earth

00:29:10 --> 00:29:11

and everything in between

00:29:13 --> 00:29:14

for mere play.

00:29:15 --> 00:29:17

Okay? But if you want to convince

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

a deist

00:29:21 --> 00:29:23

who says I believe there is a God

00:29:23 --> 00:29:24

but I don't believe

00:29:24 --> 00:29:26

that he created us for a purpose.

00:29:27 --> 00:29:28

How are you gonna convince him?

00:29:32 --> 00:29:34

How are you gonna convince him that no,

00:29:36 --> 00:29:37

believing in the creator

00:29:37 --> 00:29:38

necessitates

00:29:38 --> 00:29:40

that you believe that he created us

00:29:41 --> 00:29:43

and he created this world

00:29:45 --> 00:29:47

due to a wisdom, due to a reason,

00:29:48 --> 00:29:49

for a purpose.

00:30:03 --> 00:30:05

Mhmm. Yeah.

00:30:11 --> 00:30:12

He believes in God.

00:30:13 --> 00:30:16

Yeah. But he doesn't believe he just believes

00:30:16 --> 00:30:18

that God created us and left us without

00:30:18 --> 00:30:19

purpose. So we live and die and that's

00:30:19 --> 00:30:20

it. Oh,

00:30:21 --> 00:30:22

then you have it. Yeah. So basically Yeah.

00:30:22 --> 00:30:23

Yeah.

00:30:25 --> 00:30:25

So basically

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

yeah.

00:30:34 --> 00:30:34

Okay.

00:30:39 --> 00:30:39

Mhmm.

00:30:39 --> 00:30:41

So the brother is saying that.

00:30:43 --> 00:30:43

Alhamdulillah

00:30:45 --> 00:30:46

that Allah guides us.

00:30:48 --> 00:30:48

Yeah.

00:30:51 --> 00:30:51

Yeah.

00:30:54 --> 00:30:56

As Allah says about the, the people of

00:30:56 --> 00:30:57

Firaun,

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

They knew deep down inside,

00:31:03 --> 00:31:05

that Musa 'alayhi wa sallam was,

00:31:05 --> 00:31:06

the Prophet.

00:31:33 --> 00:31:34

Mhmm.

00:31:35 --> 00:31:35

Mhmm.

00:31:40 --> 00:31:41

Okay.

00:32:03 --> 00:32:04

Okay.

00:32:04 --> 00:32:06

K. But here you're you're mentioning

00:32:06 --> 00:32:08

a specific purpose.

00:32:08 --> 00:32:10

We haven't gotten to that yet.

00:32:11 --> 00:32:13

We're just trying to convince him that there

00:32:13 --> 00:32:15

is a purpose. He's saying there's no

00:32:16 --> 00:32:17

purpose. So basically,

00:32:18 --> 00:32:19

very simply put,

00:32:21 --> 00:32:22

the Creator,

00:32:23 --> 00:32:23

right?

00:32:24 --> 00:32:26

The creator, the 1 who is

00:32:26 --> 00:32:27

identified

00:32:27 --> 00:32:28

as

00:32:28 --> 00:32:29

this being, who created what we see around

00:32:29 --> 00:32:30

us, this

00:32:31 --> 00:32:34

who created what we see around us, this

00:32:34 --> 00:32:35

massive creation,

00:32:36 --> 00:32:39

this complex design that we see around us,

00:32:39 --> 00:32:41

whether in the universe or within our own

00:32:41 --> 00:32:41

selves.

00:32:43 --> 00:32:44

It's a necessary

00:32:44 --> 00:32:45

attribute of his

00:32:46 --> 00:32:47

that

00:32:48 --> 00:32:51

he is intelligent, he is wise.

00:32:52 --> 00:32:53

Right?

00:32:53 --> 00:32:55

Because someone who is not wise could not

00:32:55 --> 00:32:57

have created all of this,

00:32:57 --> 00:32:58

that we see around us.

00:32:59 --> 00:32:59

Impossible.

00:33:00 --> 00:33:01

Right? Wisdom

00:33:02 --> 00:33:02

is

00:33:03 --> 00:33:05

a necessary attribute of his.

00:33:06 --> 00:33:07

Therefore,

00:33:08 --> 00:33:10

you know, once we agree on that, therefore,

00:33:12 --> 00:33:13

what does a wise person do?

00:33:14 --> 00:33:17

Or what does a wise person What does

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

he not do?

00:33:18 --> 00:33:21

He doesn't just make things for no reason.

00:33:22 --> 00:33:24

Right? Someone who is wise,

00:33:25 --> 00:33:26

whatever he does, he does

00:33:27 --> 00:33:27

for a reason,

00:33:28 --> 00:33:30

for a wisdom. Right?

00:33:31 --> 00:33:34

And so it's not possible to believe

00:33:35 --> 00:33:38

that this creator who created us and you

00:33:38 --> 00:33:40

believe that, you know, there is a creator,

00:33:41 --> 00:33:43

it's not possible for you to believe that

00:33:43 --> 00:33:46

he simply created us and especially us human

00:33:46 --> 00:33:49

beings who are so different than other living

00:33:49 --> 00:33:49

beings

00:33:50 --> 00:33:50

around us

00:33:51 --> 00:33:53

with the intelligence that we have,

00:33:53 --> 00:33:54

with

00:33:54 --> 00:33:56

the emotions that we have etcetera.

00:33:56 --> 00:33:57

We're completely different.

00:33:58 --> 00:34:00

Is it possible to believe that we were

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

created by this wise

00:34:03 --> 00:34:03

supreme being

00:34:05 --> 00:34:07

to just live and die like animals?

00:34:08 --> 00:34:09

No.

00:34:09 --> 00:34:10

Right?

00:34:13 --> 00:34:15

It just doesn't add up.

00:34:15 --> 00:34:16

Right?

00:34:16 --> 00:34:18

So this is the point here that I

00:34:18 --> 00:34:21

mentioned here. The creator creates everything with wisdom

00:34:23 --> 00:34:23

and

00:34:24 --> 00:34:25

and reason.

00:34:26 --> 00:34:27

With wisdom

00:34:27 --> 00:34:30

and reason as Allah says in the ayah

00:34:30 --> 00:34:30

and elsewhere,

00:34:31 --> 00:34:32

Allah says in Surah

00:34:40 --> 00:34:42

Do you think that we created you without

00:34:42 --> 00:34:43

purpose

00:34:44 --> 00:34:46

and then you would not be returned to

00:34:46 --> 00:34:47

us?

00:34:47 --> 00:34:49

And so Allah has mentioned it in the

00:34:49 --> 00:34:49

Quran.

00:34:50 --> 00:34:51

Moving on to the next point.

00:34:56 --> 00:34:56

The creation

00:34:57 --> 00:34:59

that we see around us

00:34:59 --> 00:35:01

is the clearest proof

00:35:01 --> 00:35:04

for the existence of the creator.

00:35:04 --> 00:35:05

The

00:35:06 --> 00:35:08

creation around us that we see

00:35:08 --> 00:35:10

is the clearest proof

00:35:10 --> 00:35:11

for

00:35:11 --> 00:35:12

the existence

00:35:13 --> 00:35:14

of a creator.

00:35:14 --> 00:35:15

And

00:35:19 --> 00:35:20

that's why 1 of the

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

proofs

00:35:22 --> 00:35:23

that we

00:35:24 --> 00:35:27

use to prove the existence of Allah

00:35:28 --> 00:35:29

is the origin of creation.

00:35:32 --> 00:35:33

And that is that

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

whatever exists,

00:35:36 --> 00:35:37

whatever,

00:35:37 --> 00:35:40

you know, material thing that exists,

00:35:40 --> 00:35:42

it could not have just existed on its

00:35:42 --> 00:35:43

own

00:35:43 --> 00:35:45

without having a cause.

00:35:46 --> 00:35:48

What is known as the causality argument

00:35:49 --> 00:35:49

for

00:35:50 --> 00:35:51

the existence of God.

00:35:53 --> 00:35:54

And this is 1 of the most simplest,

00:35:54 --> 00:35:57

easiest arguments to prove to an atheist

00:35:57 --> 00:35:59

that Allah exists.

00:35:59 --> 00:36:00

Very simple.

00:36:03 --> 00:36:05

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says

00:36:06 --> 00:36:06

in Surat

00:36:14 --> 00:36:16

Or were they created by nothing?

00:36:18 --> 00:36:19

Or were they the creator

00:36:20 --> 00:36:21

the creators of themselves?

00:36:29 --> 00:36:30

Or did they create the heavens and the

00:36:30 --> 00:36:31

earth?

00:36:33 --> 00:36:35

Right. Here Allah gives several possibilities.

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

The first,

00:36:38 --> 00:36:39

were they created from nothing?

00:36:41 --> 00:36:42

Is it

00:36:42 --> 00:36:44

logically possible for something to just pop out

00:36:44 --> 00:36:46

of nowhere from nothing?

00:36:47 --> 00:36:48

Logically speaking, it's not possible.

00:36:50 --> 00:36:53

The second possibility, or were they the creators

00:36:54 --> 00:36:55

of themselves?

00:36:57 --> 00:36:57

Meaning,

00:36:57 --> 00:36:59

did we create our own selves?

00:37:00 --> 00:37:02

Again, that's not logically possible either.

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

Or

00:37:04 --> 00:37:05

did we create

00:37:06 --> 00:37:07

the heavens and the earth?

00:37:10 --> 00:37:10

And so

00:37:11 --> 00:37:13

the answer is no, but rather Allah Subhanahu

00:37:13 --> 00:37:15

wa Ta'ala created everything and that's why

00:37:17 --> 00:37:19

Sheikh al Islam ibn Taymiyyah he says,

00:37:19 --> 00:37:20

how can evidence

00:37:21 --> 00:37:22

be required

00:37:23 --> 00:37:24

to prove the existence

00:37:25 --> 00:37:27

of that which everything

00:37:27 --> 00:37:29

in existence is evidence of.

00:37:32 --> 00:37:34

You know, he was asking

00:37:35 --> 00:37:38

how could you possibly ask for evidence for

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

this?

00:37:39 --> 00:37:41

It is 1 of the most obvious of

00:37:42 --> 00:37:42

facts.

00:37:43 --> 00:37:45

It is what we can call a self

00:37:45 --> 00:37:46

evident truth.

00:37:47 --> 00:37:48

It doesn't require evidence.

00:37:49 --> 00:37:52

He says, how could evidence be asked to

00:37:52 --> 00:37:53

prove

00:37:53 --> 00:37:56

the existence of that which everything in existence

00:37:56 --> 00:37:58

is evidence of? Look around you.

00:37:58 --> 00:37:59

Everything that you see

00:38:00 --> 00:38:02

proves and points to the existence of

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

a creator.

00:38:04 --> 00:38:05

The second,

00:38:05 --> 00:38:06

the next

00:38:07 --> 00:38:09

point here is similar to this

00:38:09 --> 00:38:11

and that is that the perfection

00:38:12 --> 00:38:15

of the creation around us is yet another

00:38:15 --> 00:38:15

proof

00:38:16 --> 00:38:19

of the existence of a perfect wise creator.

00:38:22 --> 00:38:26

Now what's the difference between this and point

00:38:26 --> 00:38:26

number 4?

00:38:58 --> 00:39:00

So the previous point that we mentioned, the

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

creation is the clearest proof for the existence

00:39:02 --> 00:39:03

of the creator.

00:39:04 --> 00:39:06

Meaning the origin of creation.

00:39:07 --> 00:39:09

Okay. Going back to the origin of creation,

00:39:09 --> 00:39:10

the beginning of creation.

00:39:11 --> 00:39:13

Where did we come from? Where did this

00:39:13 --> 00:39:14

world come from?

00:39:15 --> 00:39:15

Right?

00:39:16 --> 00:39:19

So we're looking at creation from the perspective

00:39:19 --> 00:39:20

of its origin.

00:39:21 --> 00:39:23

This now point that we're talking about here,

00:39:23 --> 00:39:25

we're looking at creation, but from a different

00:39:25 --> 00:39:26

perspective, and that is

00:39:27 --> 00:39:29

from how we see it before us, not

00:39:29 --> 00:39:31

its origin. How we see it before our

00:39:31 --> 00:39:32

eyes.

00:39:32 --> 00:39:33

Right?

00:39:34 --> 00:39:35

What do we see

00:39:36 --> 00:39:37

in this creation?

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

You see

00:39:40 --> 00:39:41

marvels.

00:39:43 --> 00:39:45

Let's start with your own

00:39:46 --> 00:39:48

human being, your own human body

00:39:50 --> 00:39:52

with its massive and intricate

00:39:52 --> 00:39:53

control systems.

00:39:54 --> 00:39:55

You have

00:39:56 --> 00:39:57

a nervous system.

00:39:58 --> 00:39:59

Your brain,

00:39:59 --> 00:40:01

look at how it works, how it functions,

00:40:02 --> 00:40:03

how it analyzes,

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

stores information,

00:40:05 --> 00:40:06

retrieves information,

00:40:07 --> 00:40:09

then distinguishes it and categorizes

00:40:09 --> 00:40:10

it.

00:40:11 --> 00:40:12

How quickly?

00:40:14 --> 00:40:16

They say in a millionth of a second.

00:40:18 --> 00:40:18

Right?

00:40:19 --> 00:40:21

And not just once or twice, but does

00:40:21 --> 00:40:22

this constantly.

00:40:23 --> 00:40:25

Then look at your heart,

00:40:26 --> 00:40:28

How it pumps blood continuously

00:40:29 --> 00:40:30

for

00:40:31 --> 00:40:33

70, 80 years if you live that long.

00:40:34 --> 00:40:34

Intaking,

00:40:35 --> 00:40:36

discharging blood,

00:40:37 --> 00:40:38

you know, throughout your body

00:40:39 --> 00:40:41

and maintaining a steady precision.

00:40:42 --> 00:40:44

Well that's the amazing part about it. Maintaining

00:40:44 --> 00:40:46

a steady precision

00:40:46 --> 00:40:48

throughout your life that if that precision was

00:40:48 --> 00:40:50

to be changed, that's it. You'd have a

00:40:50 --> 00:40:51

heart attack.

00:40:52 --> 00:40:54

Your your heart would not no longer be

00:40:54 --> 00:40:55

steady

00:40:59 --> 00:41:00

And look at, you know, all your other

00:41:00 --> 00:41:02

systems in your body.

00:41:03 --> 00:41:04

Now look at

00:41:05 --> 00:41:06

the world around you.

00:41:07 --> 00:41:10

Look at the oceans, look at the fish,

00:41:10 --> 00:41:10

the insects,

00:41:11 --> 00:41:12

the birds.

00:41:13 --> 00:41:15

Look at what we're discovering today, bacteria

00:41:17 --> 00:41:19

and chemical elements

00:41:20 --> 00:41:21

that have not even

00:41:21 --> 00:41:23

been discovered yet.

00:41:24 --> 00:41:24

Right?

00:41:25 --> 00:41:26

And all of these

00:41:28 --> 00:41:30

All of these different creations has laws that

00:41:30 --> 00:41:31

govern them

00:41:32 --> 00:41:33

and they work in total

00:41:34 --> 00:41:35

synchronization and harmony.

00:41:37 --> 00:41:39

And now let's, you know, go to the

00:41:39 --> 00:41:40

cosmos. Look

00:41:41 --> 00:41:42

at the universe around us.

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

Look at

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

earth

00:41:46 --> 00:41:47

and how

00:41:48 --> 00:41:50

it orbits around the sun and how we

00:41:50 --> 00:41:51

are at a perfect

00:41:53 --> 00:41:54

distance from the sun.

00:41:56 --> 00:41:58

That if we were just slightly,

00:41:59 --> 00:42:01

you know, far away from it,

00:42:02 --> 00:42:04

it would be too cold to here to

00:42:04 --> 00:42:06

to live here. If we were just slightly

00:42:06 --> 00:42:07

closer to the sun, it will be too

00:42:07 --> 00:42:08

hard too hot.

00:42:10 --> 00:42:10

Right?

00:42:11 --> 00:42:13

And then look at how our planet is

00:42:13 --> 00:42:14

1 planet,

00:42:14 --> 00:42:15

is only 1

00:42:16 --> 00:42:18

in our solar system and how our solar

00:42:18 --> 00:42:19

system

00:42:19 --> 00:42:21

is only 1 of

00:42:21 --> 00:42:23

so many in the galaxy that we were

00:42:23 --> 00:42:26

in and how this 1 galaxy is only

00:42:26 --> 00:42:27

1 of

00:42:27 --> 00:42:28

so many.

00:42:31 --> 00:42:34

And then, you know, go further out.

00:42:35 --> 00:42:35

Right?

00:42:36 --> 00:42:38

And then think about how all of these,

00:42:39 --> 00:42:42

you know, celestial bodies, the planets, the stars,

00:42:42 --> 00:42:42

etcetera.

00:42:43 --> 00:42:45

Think about how they're not colliding with 1

00:42:45 --> 00:42:45

another.

00:42:46 --> 00:42:49

Everyone has every single 1 of it has

00:42:49 --> 00:42:52

an orbit that it goes around as Allah

00:42:52 --> 00:42:53

subhanahu wa ta'ala says.

00:42:56 --> 00:42:58

Every single 1 of them is

00:42:59 --> 00:43:00

is, you know, orbiting

00:43:03 --> 00:43:06

is orbiting in its own orbit.

00:43:08 --> 00:43:09

And,

00:43:10 --> 00:43:13

you know, all of this shows how

00:43:15 --> 00:43:17

not only were we we created

00:43:18 --> 00:43:19

but

00:43:19 --> 00:43:20

who created all of this?

00:43:21 --> 00:43:23

Someone who is attributed with wisdom

00:43:24 --> 00:43:25

and intelligence

00:43:26 --> 00:43:27

to

00:43:28 --> 00:43:28

the max.

00:43:31 --> 00:43:33

Right? And this is also what is known

00:43:33 --> 00:43:34

as,

00:43:36 --> 00:43:38

what they call today the fine tuning of

00:43:38 --> 00:43:39

the universe.

00:43:39 --> 00:43:41

The fine tuning of the universe.

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

This is what non muslims

00:43:44 --> 00:43:47

use to prove the existence of Allah

00:43:48 --> 00:43:50

and we say it's already in our Quran.

00:43:51 --> 00:43:53

Throughout the Quran, Allah refers to

00:43:53 --> 00:43:55

his perfect design

00:43:56 --> 00:43:57

in his creation.

00:43:58 --> 00:44:00

And so they say this fine tuning of

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

the universe where it's finely tuned,

00:44:04 --> 00:44:04

Where

00:44:05 --> 00:44:07

the numbers, if they were just changed by

00:44:07 --> 00:44:08

a few decimals,

00:44:09 --> 00:44:11

that's it. Life would not be possible.

00:44:13 --> 00:44:15

Right? Life would not be possible and not

00:44:15 --> 00:44:17

just any life but complex life like our

00:44:17 --> 00:44:18

life.

00:44:19 --> 00:44:20

Moving on to the next lesson

00:44:22 --> 00:44:25

and this we take from Allah's name Al

00:44:25 --> 00:44:25

Musawwir.

00:44:28 --> 00:44:30

Believing in Allah as Musawwir means

00:44:31 --> 00:44:31

that

00:44:32 --> 00:44:35

you are happy, you're satisfied, you're content with

00:44:35 --> 00:44:35

Allah

00:44:36 --> 00:44:38

creating you how He created you.

00:44:40 --> 00:44:42

Not only you but also how He created

00:44:42 --> 00:44:43

others around you.

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

You're happy, you're content

00:44:46 --> 00:44:49

in how Allah created you because He is

00:44:49 --> 00:44:50

the 1 who shaped you.

00:44:50 --> 00:44:52

He is the 1 who gave you your

00:44:52 --> 00:44:53

shape and your form.

00:44:54 --> 00:44:55

Right?

00:44:55 --> 00:44:57

So the true believer does not object

00:44:57 --> 00:44:59

and say, why am I why do I

00:44:59 --> 00:45:00

look

00:45:00 --> 00:45:03

ugly? Or why do I, you know, why

00:45:03 --> 00:45:03

am

00:45:04 --> 00:45:06

I tall? Why am I short? Why, you

00:45:06 --> 00:45:09

know, why have why do I stand out?

00:45:09 --> 00:45:11

Or, you know, why don't I look like

00:45:11 --> 00:45:12

so and so?

00:45:12 --> 00:45:12

Right?

00:45:15 --> 00:45:17

And the true believer also doesn't look down

00:45:17 --> 00:45:18

on others.

00:45:20 --> 00:45:20

Right?

00:45:22 --> 00:45:23

When you see someone who

00:45:23 --> 00:45:25

doesn't have the kind of shape and form

00:45:25 --> 00:45:27

that Allah has given to you and bless

00:45:27 --> 00:45:28

you with.

00:45:28 --> 00:45:30

You don't look down on others and say,

00:45:30 --> 00:45:31

you know,

00:45:31 --> 00:45:32

I'm better than them.

00:45:33 --> 00:45:34

Right?

00:45:35 --> 00:45:36

Allah is al Musawwir.

00:45:38 --> 00:45:40

And that was a mistake that Iblis fell

00:45:40 --> 00:45:40

into.

00:45:42 --> 00:45:42

Right?

00:45:42 --> 00:45:45

When Allah When Allah created Adam alaihis salam

00:45:46 --> 00:45:48

And we know that Allah shaped Adam with

00:45:48 --> 00:45:49

his 2 hands.

00:45:50 --> 00:45:52

And that was exactly what Allah used to

00:45:52 --> 00:45:52

refute

00:45:53 --> 00:45:53

Iblis.

00:45:56 --> 00:45:58

When he ordered him to prostrate

00:45:59 --> 00:46:00

and Iblis said,

00:46:01 --> 00:46:02

you know, you created me from fire and

00:46:02 --> 00:46:04

you created him from clay, I'm better than

00:46:04 --> 00:46:05

him.

00:46:06 --> 00:46:07

Allah says,

00:46:17 --> 00:46:19

I created with my 2 hands?

00:46:24 --> 00:46:26

And so Allah being Al Musawr means

00:46:27 --> 00:46:29

that you are content.

00:46:31 --> 00:46:33

You're content that this is how Allah created

00:46:33 --> 00:46:34

you. And

00:46:45 --> 00:46:47

you should be praising Allah for that.

00:46:48 --> 00:46:50

You should be praising Allah for that instead

00:46:50 --> 00:46:51

of being ungrateful.

00:46:53 --> 00:46:54

That Allah has given you something that He

00:46:54 --> 00:46:56

hasn't given to others.

00:47:05 --> 00:47:07

He created the heavens and the earth,

00:47:07 --> 00:47:08

and the earth,

00:47:08 --> 00:47:09

for

00:47:09 --> 00:47:12

a purpose with with the truth. And he

00:47:12 --> 00:47:14

shaped you, meaning in the wounds of your

00:47:14 --> 00:47:17

mothers, perfecting your shape and your form.

00:47:18 --> 00:47:20

Finally, the last lesson that we'll mention here,

00:47:22 --> 00:47:24

it is not possible for us or it

00:47:24 --> 00:47:26

is not permissible for us

00:47:27 --> 00:47:29

it is not permissible for us

00:47:30 --> 00:47:33

to rival a lot in creating and shaping

00:47:33 --> 00:47:34

and giving form.

00:47:40 --> 00:47:41

And so the prophet

00:47:42 --> 00:47:43

says in this regard,

00:47:51 --> 00:47:52

in Those who are gonna have 1 of

00:47:52 --> 00:47:53

the most painful

00:47:53 --> 00:47:55

punishments in the akira

00:47:56 --> 00:47:56

are

00:47:57 --> 00:47:58

those who

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

basically

00:48:01 --> 00:48:01

draw images

00:48:02 --> 00:48:02

or

00:48:05 --> 00:48:06

carve images

00:48:10 --> 00:48:12

and the reason for that is because they

00:48:12 --> 00:48:15

are trying to rival Allah.

00:48:16 --> 00:48:17

And so Allah

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

is the 1 who created living beings. And

00:48:18 --> 00:48:19

this is something that is

00:48:23 --> 00:48:24

And this is something

00:48:26 --> 00:48:27

unique to Allah.

00:48:28 --> 00:48:30

We create things and we spoke about this

00:48:30 --> 00:48:30

earlier.

00:48:31 --> 00:48:34

We do make things and manufacture things but

00:48:34 --> 00:48:36

not things that have life in them.

00:48:38 --> 00:48:39

Living beings,

00:48:40 --> 00:48:42

this is only the creation of Allah.

00:48:43 --> 00:48:45

And so if you try to make something

00:48:45 --> 00:48:47

that resembles a living being,

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

then what you're doing is you're rivaling Allah.

00:48:52 --> 00:48:54

And that's why the punishment is severe.

00:48:54 --> 00:48:56

In the other hadith, the prophet

00:48:59 --> 00:48:59

says

00:49:07 --> 00:49:09

It will be said to those who make

00:49:09 --> 00:49:10

these images

00:49:11 --> 00:49:12

on the day of judgment,

00:49:13 --> 00:49:15

or they will be punished on the day

00:49:15 --> 00:49:16

of judgment, and it will be said to

00:49:16 --> 00:49:18

them, give life

00:49:18 --> 00:49:19

to what you created.

00:49:20 --> 00:49:21

Give

00:49:21 --> 00:49:22

life to

00:49:23 --> 00:49:24

what you created.

00:49:26 --> 00:49:29

Alright. So these are the 4 names, Al

00:49:29 --> 00:49:31

Khalak, Al Khalaq,

00:49:31 --> 00:49:33

Al Badri, and Al Musawir.

00:49:34 --> 00:49:35

We move on to

00:49:36 --> 00:49:37

the next set of names.

00:49:39 --> 00:49:41

And these are in relation

00:49:42 --> 00:49:45

to Allah's attribute of Al Mulk.

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

And these are 3,

00:49:51 --> 00:49:52

Al Malik,

00:49:53 --> 00:49:54

Al Malik,

00:49:55 --> 00:49:56

and Al Malik.

00:49:57 --> 00:49:58

Al Malik,

00:49:58 --> 00:50:00

Al Malik, and Al Malik.

00:50:03 --> 00:50:06

And so these 3 names, they highlight

00:50:07 --> 00:50:07

Allah's

00:50:11 --> 00:50:13

mulk, which is his dominion,

00:50:13 --> 00:50:14

his kingdom,

00:50:15 --> 00:50:16

his power,

00:50:18 --> 00:50:22

and complete control over his creation. His complete

00:50:22 --> 00:50:22

control

00:50:23 --> 00:50:24

over

00:50:25 --> 00:50:26

His creation.

00:50:27 --> 00:50:29

So we notice all 3 names

00:50:33 --> 00:50:36

malik, al malik, and malik, they're all taken

00:50:36 --> 00:50:37

from the same root word

00:50:38 --> 00:50:39

of almulk.

00:50:42 --> 00:50:42

So,

00:50:44 --> 00:50:47

you know, Al Mulk refers to the dominion,

00:50:47 --> 00:50:48

the universe.

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

And

00:50:52 --> 00:50:54

Al Mulk is 1 of

00:50:55 --> 00:50:57

the attributes of Allah

00:50:57 --> 00:50:59

that come under his Again,

00:50:59 --> 00:51:01

that come under his rububiyah.

00:51:02 --> 00:51:04

So just like Al Khalk

00:51:04 --> 00:51:06

falls under the rububiyah of Allah,

00:51:07 --> 00:51:08

the same thing with

00:51:09 --> 00:51:10

Al Mulk.

00:51:11 --> 00:51:12

And

00:51:12 --> 00:51:14

Allah has referred

00:51:15 --> 00:51:17

to himself with this attribute throughout the Qur'a.

00:51:19 --> 00:51:21

In in the form of his names, these

00:51:21 --> 00:51:23

3 names, as well as in the 4

00:51:23 --> 00:51:24

in the verb form,

00:51:26 --> 00:51:27

right, in the verb form,

00:51:30 --> 00:51:31

as well as

00:51:32 --> 00:51:35

in the noun form of Al Mulk. Lahu

00:51:35 --> 00:51:38

Mulkus Sanahuat Yawal comes in many different places

00:51:38 --> 00:51:39

in the Quran.

00:51:39 --> 00:51:42

To him belongs the Mulk, the dominion

00:51:43 --> 00:51:44

of the heavens and the earth.

00:51:47 --> 00:51:49

And this is 1 of the greatest of

00:51:49 --> 00:51:50

Allah's attributes

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

as it

00:51:52 --> 00:51:53

combines several,

00:51:54 --> 00:51:55

you know,

00:51:56 --> 00:51:58

several qualities of Allah such as

00:51:58 --> 00:51:59

His power,

00:52:00 --> 00:52:01

His ability,

00:52:02 --> 00:52:04

his dominion, his his glory,

00:52:05 --> 00:52:06

his control,

00:52:08 --> 00:52:10

his pride and so on and so forth.

00:52:11 --> 00:52:12

Okay. So

00:52:14 --> 00:52:16

these names, where have they been mentioned in

00:52:16 --> 00:52:17

the Quran?

00:52:19 --> 00:52:19

First of all,

00:52:21 --> 00:52:23

has been mentioned 5 times in the Quran.

00:52:32 --> 00:52:35

And it would be 6 if you consider

00:52:36 --> 00:52:36

the other

00:52:38 --> 00:52:39

of Surah Al Fatiha

00:52:41 --> 00:52:42

and that is

00:52:43 --> 00:52:44

instead of Maliki Umidi.

00:52:46 --> 00:52:48

But besides that it's been mentioned 5 times.

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

So we have in Surah Al Hashr that

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

we mentioned earlier.

00:52:54 --> 00:52:55

Those

00:52:55 --> 00:52:57

17 odd names that Allah mentions at the

00:52:57 --> 00:53:00

end of Surah Al Hashr. Allah begins with

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

Also

00:53:08 --> 00:53:09

in Surat

00:53:14 --> 00:53:15

Allah says

00:53:18 --> 00:53:19

Allah says

00:53:20 --> 00:53:22

exalted is Allah

00:53:22 --> 00:53:24

the true Malik

00:53:25 --> 00:53:27

and this is repeated. The same

00:53:28 --> 00:53:30

verse is repeated in surah

00:53:32 --> 00:53:33

Surah Taha. Fata'aalAllahuul

00:53:34 --> 00:53:34

Malikul haqq.

00:53:35 --> 00:53:37

So it comes in Surah Al Mu'minoon as

00:53:37 --> 00:53:38

well as Surah Taha.

00:53:41 --> 00:53:42

And

00:53:43 --> 00:53:44

we also have

00:53:49 --> 00:53:50

Surat Anas

00:53:51 --> 00:53:52

Surat Anas Malikinas.

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

Right?

00:54:04 --> 00:54:05

Alright? As for Al Malik,

00:54:07 --> 00:54:09

it has been mentioned only twice.

00:54:11 --> 00:54:12

So the first is And

00:54:18 --> 00:54:19

where else has it been mentioned?

00:54:22 --> 00:54:23

Ali Imran.

00:54:43 --> 00:54:44

As for

00:54:44 --> 00:54:45

Al Malik,

00:54:46 --> 00:54:48

it's only been mentioned once in the Quran.

00:54:49 --> 00:54:49

Al Malik

00:54:50 --> 00:54:52

has only been mentioned once in the Quran.

00:54:52 --> 00:54:53

Where is that?

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

Surat Al Qamar.

00:54:57 --> 00:54:58

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says,

00:55:08 --> 00:55:10

Indeed the righteous will be

00:55:10 --> 00:55:11

amid gardens

00:55:12 --> 00:55:13

and rivers.

00:55:14 --> 00:55:15

At the seat of honor,

00:55:16 --> 00:55:17

in the presence of,

00:55:18 --> 00:55:19

and Al Malik,

00:55:19 --> 00:55:20

the most

00:55:21 --> 00:55:23

powerful sovereign. Muqtadir,

00:55:23 --> 00:55:24

powerful.

00:55:24 --> 00:55:25

Al Malik,

00:55:26 --> 00:55:26

the sovereign.

00:55:27 --> 00:55:28

And

00:55:29 --> 00:55:30

it's mentioned that,

00:55:31 --> 00:55:33

you know, Sheikh Alassam Ibn Taymiyyah,

00:55:34 --> 00:55:36

we know that he was imprisoned

00:55:36 --> 00:55:38

several times in his life

00:55:39 --> 00:55:39

and

00:55:40 --> 00:55:42

towards the end of his life, he actually

00:55:42 --> 00:55:43

died in prison.

00:55:44 --> 00:55:46

He actually died in prison

00:55:47 --> 00:55:48

and

00:55:50 --> 00:55:51

he was reading the Quran

00:55:51 --> 00:55:53

and these were the last ayat that he

00:55:53 --> 00:55:54

had read

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

and then he passed

00:55:58 --> 00:55:59

away.

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

The believers, the

00:56:03 --> 00:56:05

will be amid gardens and rivers.

00:56:09 --> 00:56:11

They will be at the seat of honor

00:56:11 --> 00:56:13

in the presence of Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala,

00:56:15 --> 00:56:18

the 1 who is attributed with these attributes

00:56:18 --> 00:56:19

of Malik and Muqtadir.

00:56:21 --> 00:56:21

Alright.

00:56:22 --> 00:56:24

So what is the difference between

00:56:25 --> 00:56:26

these names?

00:56:26 --> 00:56:28

What is the difference between these names? As

00:56:28 --> 00:56:29

we mentioned previously,

00:56:32 --> 00:56:33

if Allah mentions

00:56:33 --> 00:56:35

different names of His that go back to

00:56:35 --> 00:56:36

the same

00:56:37 --> 00:56:37

meaning,

00:56:38 --> 00:56:40

there has to be a difference between them.

00:56:41 --> 00:56:43

It cannot be that each is synonymous in

00:56:43 --> 00:56:44

every way.

00:56:46 --> 00:56:49

In general, they refer to Allah's dominion

00:56:50 --> 00:56:52

and His you know, Him being

00:56:53 --> 00:56:55

Him owning everything etc.

00:56:55 --> 00:56:57

But there are subtle differences.

00:56:57 --> 00:56:58

So

00:56:59 --> 00:57:00

the difference between

00:57:00 --> 00:57:01

Malik and Malik

00:57:03 --> 00:57:05

the difference between Malik and Malik

00:57:07 --> 00:57:09

is a difference that we also use in

00:57:09 --> 00:57:11

the Arabic language in general.

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

So

00:57:13 --> 00:57:15

although they both come from the same root

00:57:15 --> 00:57:17

word, there is a difference.

00:57:18 --> 00:57:20

Malik, you say

00:57:20 --> 00:57:22

to refer to the owner of something.

00:57:24 --> 00:57:25

K?

00:57:26 --> 00:57:27

So you say,

00:57:27 --> 00:57:29

the owner of the house,

00:57:29 --> 00:57:31

Malik Adar or Malik Albayt

00:57:32 --> 00:57:33

or Malik Asayara,

00:57:34 --> 00:57:35

the owner of the car.

00:57:37 --> 00:57:39

But you don't say that with respect to

00:57:39 --> 00:57:41

Melek. You don't use Melek for that.

00:57:41 --> 00:57:44

Melek refers to a king or

00:57:45 --> 00:57:46

a sovereign

00:57:47 --> 00:57:49

who has a kingdom under his control.

00:57:52 --> 00:57:54

So his ownership is more than just

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

The ownership of,

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

you know, you owning your car or your

00:57:59 --> 00:58:02

house. Right? Your ownership is limited

00:58:02 --> 00:58:04

to only a few things.

00:58:04 --> 00:58:07

The Malik, his ownership is wider.

00:58:08 --> 00:58:09

As for Al Malik,

00:58:10 --> 00:58:12

then they say it covers both meanings.

00:58:14 --> 00:58:17

Al Malik covers both both meanings here.

00:58:22 --> 00:58:23

So Allah being

00:58:24 --> 00:58:25

Al Malik,

00:58:26 --> 00:58:28

Al Malik and Al Malik, basically

00:58:29 --> 00:58:31

we can summarize it to say it

00:58:32 --> 00:58:33

means 1 of 2 things.

00:58:34 --> 00:58:35

It means 1 of 2 things.

00:58:37 --> 00:58:38

The first is

00:58:40 --> 00:58:42

that to Him alone belongs

00:58:42 --> 00:58:43

the mulk,

00:58:44 --> 00:58:46

the dominion, the power and

00:58:46 --> 00:58:49

control over Allah's creation. It belongs to him

00:58:49 --> 00:58:50

alone.

00:58:51 --> 00:58:53

So everything belongs to Allah

00:58:54 --> 00:58:56

and everything is in need of Allah.

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

Nothing is outside of his

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

dominion, ownership,

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

and authority.

00:59:08 --> 00:59:10

And that's why in the Quran,

00:59:11 --> 00:59:13

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala to encourage us to

00:59:13 --> 00:59:14

give sadaqah.

00:59:16 --> 00:59:18

He says, Give from that which We have

00:59:18 --> 00:59:20

put in your hands.

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

That

00:59:22 --> 00:59:24

which We have given to you. Don't think

00:59:24 --> 00:59:26

that this wealth that you own, that you

00:59:26 --> 00:59:27

possess,

00:59:28 --> 00:59:28

that you

00:59:29 --> 00:59:31

own it and possess it and you

00:59:32 --> 00:59:34

know, you are the sole owner of it.

00:59:34 --> 00:59:35

No.

00:59:36 --> 00:59:37

Allah owns it

00:59:38 --> 00:59:40

and He put it in your hands.

00:59:40 --> 00:59:42

So now give what Allah has given to

00:59:42 --> 00:59:45

you. Give from what Allah has given to

00:59:45 --> 00:59:46

you. It doesn't belong to you.

00:59:47 --> 00:59:48

It belongs to Allah.

00:59:49 --> 00:59:50

So spend of it

00:59:50 --> 00:59:51

in,

00:59:51 --> 00:59:53

you know, in how Allah is commanding you

00:59:53 --> 00:59:54

to spend it.

00:59:55 --> 00:59:56

The second meaning

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

is

00:59:58 --> 01:00:00

that Allah has the supreme

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

rule and sovereignty over his creation.

01:00:05 --> 01:00:06

So only

01:00:06 --> 01:00:09

Allah's commands and laws are executed,

01:00:10 --> 01:00:12

And only he has the right to, like,

01:00:12 --> 01:00:13

legislate.

01:00:16 --> 01:00:18

Alright? Only Allah has that right.

01:00:20 --> 01:00:23

And here we can say that

01:00:24 --> 01:00:25

Allah legislates,

01:00:25 --> 01:00:26

when Allah legislates or,

01:00:27 --> 01:00:28

you know,

01:00:28 --> 01:00:31

he he gives commands. The scholars say there

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

are 3 kinds.

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

So

01:00:33 --> 01:00:35

we have Ekam, Kadariya,

01:00:38 --> 01:00:38

Those

01:00:41 --> 01:00:42

rulings which are

01:00:42 --> 01:00:45

based on the Qadr of Allah. So Allah

01:00:45 --> 01:00:47

decreed everything. Right?

01:00:49 --> 01:00:51

Everything must happen

01:00:51 --> 01:00:52

how Allah has decreed.

01:00:53 --> 01:00:55

So this is Allah's

01:00:55 --> 01:00:58

As if, you know, Allah's law

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

being executed.

01:01:01 --> 01:01:01

Right?

01:01:03 --> 01:01:05

The second is Akam Sharaiyah.

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

Allah has legislated

01:01:10 --> 01:01:11

certain rulings.

01:01:12 --> 01:01:14

Pray 5 times a day.

01:01:16 --> 01:01:17

Do this,

01:01:18 --> 01:01:19

don't do this, etcetera.

01:01:20 --> 01:01:22

These are known as akham sharayyah.

01:01:22 --> 01:01:24

Who has the right to legislate them? Only

01:01:24 --> 01:01:24

Allah.

01:01:29 --> 01:01:31

And what also falls under that are

01:01:33 --> 01:01:33

the

01:01:34 --> 01:01:36

penal code in Islam in the Sharia

01:01:37 --> 01:01:38

which is

01:01:38 --> 01:01:39

the Hudood,

01:01:41 --> 01:01:43

the punishments for crimes.

01:01:44 --> 01:01:47

Again, who has the sole right to legislate

01:01:47 --> 01:01:48

that? Only Allah.

01:01:49 --> 01:01:49

So

01:01:50 --> 01:01:51

what is the punishment for for stealing? To

01:01:51 --> 01:01:51

cut off the hand. What is the punishment

01:01:51 --> 01:01:52

for, murder?

01:01:52 --> 01:01:53

To cut off the

01:01:54 --> 01:01:56

hand. What is the punishment for

01:01:56 --> 01:01:57

murder?

01:01:58 --> 01:02:00

The capital punishment, etcetera.

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

Right? Who has the right to legislate these

01:02:03 --> 01:02:05

laws? Allah and Allah alone.

01:02:05 --> 01:02:08

And thirdly, Al aqamal jazaiyah

01:02:09 --> 01:02:10

are those

01:02:10 --> 01:02:11

regarding

01:02:11 --> 01:02:13

the akhirah, the jaza,

01:02:14 --> 01:02:14

the

01:02:15 --> 01:02:16

compensation in the akhirah.

01:02:20 --> 01:02:22

What reward are you gonna get?

01:02:23 --> 01:02:24

That is

01:02:24 --> 01:02:26

Allah's right to give you what He will

01:02:26 --> 01:02:28

give you in the akhirah. Whether it be

01:02:28 --> 01:02:29

reward or punishment.

01:02:31 --> 01:02:31

Alright?

01:02:32 --> 01:02:32

So,

01:02:33 --> 01:02:33

basically,

01:02:34 --> 01:02:34

Allah being

01:02:35 --> 01:02:38

Al Malik, Al Malik, Al Malik, it means

01:02:38 --> 01:02:39

these 2 things in general.

01:02:40 --> 01:02:42

Allah is the sole owner

01:02:43 --> 01:02:44

and everything belongs to Him.

01:02:46 --> 01:02:47

And he controls

01:02:48 --> 01:02:49

the entire creation.

01:02:51 --> 01:02:53

And that includes us human beings

01:02:54 --> 01:02:56

and what happens to us, etcetera, and Allah

01:02:56 --> 01:02:57

subhanahu wa ta'ala.

01:02:58 --> 01:03:00

He has sovereignty over his creation,

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

and no 1 should rival Allah subhanahu wa

01:03:03 --> 01:03:04

ta'ala in that.

01:03:07 --> 01:03:09

Alright. We move on to the lessons that

01:03:09 --> 01:03:10

we learned from these

01:03:10 --> 01:03:11

3 names.

01:03:13 --> 01:03:14

First of

01:03:17 --> 01:03:19

all, the first lesson is similar to

01:03:21 --> 01:03:22

what we mentioned regarding

01:03:22 --> 01:03:24

Allah being Al Khaliq.

01:03:32 --> 01:03:33

Yeah.

01:03:34 --> 01:03:35

Mhmm.

01:03:40 --> 01:03:41

But it could be that,

01:03:43 --> 01:03:45

the question was regarding,

01:03:46 --> 01:03:48

in Surat al Fatih, we have a different

01:03:50 --> 01:03:52

Does that happen in the other ayat?

01:03:59 --> 01:04:01

We mentioned that

01:04:01 --> 01:04:02

Malik,

01:04:03 --> 01:04:05

besides this has only been mentioned 1 in

01:04:05 --> 01:04:07

1 other place and that is Surah Al

01:04:07 --> 01:04:07

Imran.

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

So

01:04:09 --> 01:04:11

we should go back to see

01:04:13 --> 01:04:14

what the other

01:04:14 --> 01:04:16

would be. Allah knows best.

01:04:19 --> 01:04:20

Alright. So

01:04:21 --> 01:04:23

the first lesson that we have is similar

01:04:23 --> 01:04:24

to

01:04:26 --> 01:04:27

the previous names

01:04:28 --> 01:04:30

with respect to Allah being the Creator.

01:04:31 --> 01:04:33

Believing in Allah as

01:04:35 --> 01:04:35

the

01:04:35 --> 01:04:36

malik

01:04:36 --> 01:04:37

or malik,

01:04:38 --> 01:04:40

as the King, the ruler,

01:04:40 --> 01:04:41

the sovereign,

01:04:42 --> 01:04:44

the owner of everything necessitates

01:04:45 --> 01:04:47

believing in Him as the only 1 who

01:04:47 --> 01:04:51

deserves to be worshipped. Believing in his Uluhiya.

01:04:53 --> 01:04:55

This is why throughout the Quran

01:04:56 --> 01:04:58

Allah uses this attribute of his to disprove

01:04:58 --> 01:05:01

the worship of others who do not possess

01:05:01 --> 01:05:01

anything.

01:05:03 --> 01:05:05

Right? Who do not possess anything. Just like

01:05:05 --> 01:05:07

we mentioned regarding Al Khalq.

01:05:08 --> 01:05:10

Allah uses that particular attribute

01:05:12 --> 01:05:13

to disprove

01:05:14 --> 01:05:15

that these idols

01:05:17 --> 01:05:18

deserve to be worshipped.

01:05:19 --> 01:05:21

Right? The same thing with Al Mulk.

01:05:22 --> 01:05:23

The same thing with Al Mulk. Allah

01:05:24 --> 01:05:24

says,

01:05:26 --> 01:05:27

in Surah Satur,

01:05:32 --> 01:05:34

Fatir. That is Allah your Lord.

01:05:34 --> 01:05:37

Al Mulk belongs to Him. All authority belongs

01:05:37 --> 01:05:38

to Him. Then what does Allah

01:05:41 --> 01:05:42

say?

01:05:44 --> 01:05:46

And those who you

01:05:46 --> 01:05:48

call upon besides Him

01:05:49 --> 01:05:51

do not own, do not possess

01:05:52 --> 01:05:53

even something as small

01:05:54 --> 01:05:56

as Al Qutmeer. What is Qutmeer?

01:05:58 --> 01:05:58

Qutmir

01:05:59 --> 01:05:59

is

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

not just a date,

01:06:02 --> 01:06:03

but

01:06:05 --> 01:06:05

the date

01:06:07 --> 01:06:09

has a seed, not just a seed.

01:06:10 --> 01:06:12

They don't even possess as much as

01:06:12 --> 01:06:13

you know what,

01:06:14 --> 01:06:15

is?

01:06:15 --> 01:06:16

It is that

01:06:17 --> 01:06:18

very thin

01:06:20 --> 01:06:22

cover of the date seal.

01:06:24 --> 01:06:26

It's like the skin of the date seed.

01:06:27 --> 01:06:28

You can peel it off. It's like a

01:06:28 --> 01:06:29

very small

01:06:30 --> 01:06:31

thin layer.

01:06:33 --> 01:06:36

Allah says here, those you call upon besides

01:06:36 --> 01:06:39

him do not even possess something as small

01:06:39 --> 01:06:39

as that.

01:06:41 --> 01:06:42

Right? Why does Allah say

01:06:43 --> 01:06:43

this?

01:06:45 --> 01:06:47

To say that if you're gonna worship someone,

01:06:47 --> 01:06:49

worship someone who has mulk.

01:06:50 --> 01:06:51

Someone who has

01:06:51 --> 01:06:54

possession of something, who owns something, who has

01:06:54 --> 01:06:54

a dominion.

01:06:55 --> 01:06:57

Right? Instead of these idols who don't even

01:06:57 --> 01:06:58

own that much.

01:07:00 --> 01:07:03

And Allah says, elsewhere in Surat Al Ma'idah,

01:07:10 --> 01:07:12

walanafi'a. Say, how can you worship besides Allah

01:07:12 --> 01:07:13

those who neither have

01:07:14 --> 01:07:17

the power to harm you or benefit you?

01:07:17 --> 01:07:18

They don't possess

01:07:19 --> 01:07:20

that ability

01:07:20 --> 01:07:23

to harm you or to benefit you. So

01:07:23 --> 01:07:24

how can you worship them? They don't have

01:07:24 --> 01:07:26

that power. They don't have

01:07:26 --> 01:07:28

that in their ability.

01:07:29 --> 01:07:30

And so

01:07:31 --> 01:07:33

this is how Allah disproves,

01:07:34 --> 01:07:37

the worship of of others besides him.

01:07:38 --> 01:07:40

The second lesson that we learn

01:07:44 --> 01:07:47

is that to Allah belongs the dominion and

01:07:47 --> 01:07:50

the sovereignty of his entire creation. Right?

01:07:51 --> 01:07:51

His entire

01:07:52 --> 01:07:52

universe.

01:07:54 --> 01:07:54

As such,

01:07:57 --> 01:07:57

whatever

01:07:58 --> 01:07:59

sovereignty

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

or, you

01:08:02 --> 01:08:03

know,

01:08:04 --> 01:08:06

kingship exists

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

in the hands of human beings

01:08:09 --> 01:08:11

like kings and rulers.

01:08:13 --> 01:08:14

None of it is

01:08:14 --> 01:08:15

real kingdom.

01:08:16 --> 01:08:18

None of it is real

01:08:19 --> 01:08:20

dominion and sovereignty.

01:08:21 --> 01:08:22

None of it is real milk.

01:08:23 --> 01:08:24

Why?

01:08:26 --> 01:08:26

Why?

01:08:35 --> 01:08:37

Okay. Because Allah is the 1 who gives

01:08:37 --> 01:08:38

that mulk

01:08:39 --> 01:08:40

and He takes it away from whomever He

01:08:40 --> 01:08:41

wills.

01:08:42 --> 01:08:43

But I'm asking why is

01:08:44 --> 01:08:46

it not real mulk?

01:08:58 --> 01:08:58

Mhmm.

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

So basically,

01:09:01 --> 01:09:02

it's incomplete.

01:09:04 --> 01:09:06

Their that they have

01:09:06 --> 01:09:07

is

01:09:07 --> 01:09:08

incomplete.

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

Not encompassing

01:09:10 --> 01:09:11

everything in the creation.

01:09:12 --> 01:09:12

Right?

01:09:14 --> 01:09:16

In fact, there has never been

01:09:17 --> 01:09:19

a time when there was a king of

01:09:19 --> 01:09:19

the world.

01:09:21 --> 01:09:21

Right?

01:09:22 --> 01:09:24

Yes, there were kings who

01:09:24 --> 01:09:25

had vast empires.

01:09:26 --> 01:09:28

Their empires stretched,

01:09:28 --> 01:09:29

you know,

01:09:31 --> 01:09:32

very far and wide.

01:09:33 --> 01:09:33

However,

01:09:34 --> 01:09:36

while they were alive, there were other kings

01:09:37 --> 01:09:39

who had control of other parts of the

01:09:39 --> 01:09:40

world.

01:09:41 --> 01:09:44

And so whoever has mulk, it is incomplete.

01:09:46 --> 01:09:47

Whether we look at it from the angle

01:09:47 --> 01:09:48

of

01:09:48 --> 01:09:49

land or time.

01:09:50 --> 01:09:52

As you mentioned, once they die, that's it.

01:09:55 --> 01:09:55

Whereas

01:09:55 --> 01:09:57

the mulk of Allah

01:09:58 --> 01:10:00

is complete and it is the real dominion

01:10:01 --> 01:10:03

that will never go away.

01:10:17 --> 01:10:18

Yeah, exactly.

01:10:21 --> 01:10:23

Even his own life, he does not own.

01:10:23 --> 01:10:25

He does not possess.

01:10:27 --> 01:10:28

It's in the possession of Allah

01:10:31 --> 01:10:33

And that's why Allah says when He says

01:10:33 --> 01:10:34

Fata'aal Allah

01:10:35 --> 01:10:37

Al Malikul Haqq.

01:10:38 --> 01:10:39

Right? Allah is superior.

01:10:40 --> 01:10:42

There's no 1 more superior to Him

01:10:43 --> 01:10:44

and that's why

01:10:46 --> 01:10:46

the

01:10:48 --> 01:10:49

Abbasi Khalifa,

01:10:52 --> 01:10:52

Harun

01:10:53 --> 01:10:54

ibn Al Maqasan.

01:10:57 --> 01:10:59

He was on his deathbed and he put

01:10:59 --> 01:11:00

his cheek on the ground

01:11:02 --> 01:11:03

and he

01:11:04 --> 01:11:04

said,

01:11:05 --> 01:11:06

O

01:11:06 --> 01:11:09

Allah the 1 whose kingdom will never vanish,

01:11:10 --> 01:11:12

have mercy upon the 1 whose kingdom

01:11:13 --> 01:11:14

is gone

01:11:15 --> 01:11:17

whose kingdom is gone. Basically he was dying.

01:11:19 --> 01:11:20

And so

01:11:21 --> 01:11:22

the point here is

01:11:22 --> 01:11:24

that, you know, the true

01:11:25 --> 01:11:26

kingdom and dominion

01:11:26 --> 01:11:28

is that of Allah subhanahu wa

01:11:30 --> 01:11:33

ta'ala. Alright. The next point that we'll mention,

01:11:34 --> 01:11:35

is

01:11:40 --> 01:11:41

we notice

01:11:42 --> 01:11:43

in the Quran

01:11:44 --> 01:11:47

that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala mentions not only

01:11:47 --> 01:11:47

that he

01:11:48 --> 01:11:50

is the king and the ruler of the

01:11:50 --> 01:11:51

dunya

01:11:51 --> 01:11:54

but specifically the akhir. The question is,

01:11:55 --> 01:11:56

why does Allah mention that?

01:11:59 --> 01:12:02

Why does Allah mention specifically that he is

01:12:03 --> 01:12:04

the,

01:12:06 --> 01:12:08

as he says in in in, Surat Al

01:12:08 --> 01:12:08

Fatiha,

01:12:10 --> 01:12:11

he is

01:12:11 --> 01:12:14

the Malik of Yawmidin, the day of judgment.

01:12:15 --> 01:12:18

Why does he mention it? Specifically, the Akhir.

01:12:18 --> 01:12:18

Why?

01:13:04 --> 01:13:05

Exactly.

01:13:05 --> 01:13:07

What all you guys said is is is

01:13:07 --> 01:13:07

right.

01:13:08 --> 01:13:09

Because basically

01:13:10 --> 01:13:12

the reality of Allah's control

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

and you know over his dominion,

01:13:16 --> 01:13:17

it will be seen on that day,

01:13:18 --> 01:13:18

Right?

01:13:19 --> 01:13:21

When all of the creation is brought before

01:13:21 --> 01:13:24

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to stand before him.

01:13:25 --> 01:13:25

Everyone.

01:13:26 --> 01:13:27

Right?

01:13:27 --> 01:13:28

And not a single

01:13:29 --> 01:13:31

soul on that day will have any authority.

01:13:33 --> 01:13:35

No 1 will have any authority.

01:13:37 --> 01:13:39

In this world, there are kings.

01:13:40 --> 01:13:42

Right? There are tyrants.

01:13:44 --> 01:13:46

Their command is obeyed.

01:13:48 --> 01:13:50

Right? To the point where you had someone

01:13:50 --> 01:13:50

like Nimrut

01:13:53 --> 01:13:53

who

01:13:54 --> 01:13:56

said no, you know, I have complete control.

01:13:57 --> 01:13:58

So

01:13:58 --> 01:14:01

Allah mentioned the debate that Ibrahim had with

01:14:01 --> 01:14:01

him.

01:14:04 --> 01:14:05

Right?

01:14:06 --> 01:14:07

And you had the likes of Firaun.

01:14:10 --> 01:14:11

On that day,

01:14:13 --> 01:14:15

no 1 will have any authority, not even

01:14:16 --> 01:14:17

the likes of these individuals.

01:14:22 --> 01:14:22

And then,

01:14:23 --> 01:14:25

you know, forget about that extreme,

01:14:26 --> 01:14:27

come down to the level of,

01:14:28 --> 01:14:28

the common

01:14:29 --> 01:14:30

the common person.

01:14:32 --> 01:14:34

We all have some kind of authority.

01:14:35 --> 01:14:35

Right?

01:14:38 --> 01:14:40

You as a man in the home have

01:14:40 --> 01:14:41

authority over

01:14:42 --> 01:14:43

over your household.

01:14:45 --> 01:14:47

The mother has authority over her children.

01:14:49 --> 01:14:51

Each of us, we possess things. We own

01:14:51 --> 01:14:52

things.

01:14:52 --> 01:14:54

Again, all of that will vanish on the

01:14:54 --> 01:14:55

day of judgement.

01:14:56 --> 01:14:57

No 1 will have even

01:14:58 --> 01:15:00

even a small authority on that day.

01:15:01 --> 01:15:03

Right? You won't be able to benefit anyone

01:15:03 --> 01:15:05

on that day. Why? Because you won't possess

01:15:05 --> 01:15:07

any authority to do so.

01:15:07 --> 01:15:09

And so on that day,

01:15:11 --> 01:15:12

the authority

01:15:13 --> 01:15:14

will be seen

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

belonging to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. And that's

01:15:17 --> 01:15:18

why Allah says

01:15:20 --> 01:15:20

in Surat

01:15:35 --> 01:15:37

before Allah. Nothing about them will be hidden

01:15:37 --> 01:15:39

from Him and He will ask

01:15:40 --> 01:15:41

to who does all

01:15:41 --> 01:15:43

authority belong on this day?

01:15:45 --> 01:15:47

To who does a mulk belong on this

01:15:47 --> 01:15:48

day?

01:15:48 --> 01:15:50

And the answer will be to Allah.

01:15:52 --> 01:15:54

The 1, the Supreme.

01:15:55 --> 01:15:57

And the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam says

01:15:58 --> 01:16:00

that Allah will fold the heavens on the

01:16:00 --> 01:16:01

day of judgement

01:16:01 --> 01:16:04

and then He will place them on His

01:16:04 --> 01:16:05

right hand and He will say

01:16:12 --> 01:16:14

He'll say, I am the malik.

01:16:14 --> 01:16:16

Where are the tyrants?

01:16:17 --> 01:16:18

Where are the proud today?

01:16:20 --> 01:16:22

And then he'll fold up the earth, placing

01:16:22 --> 01:16:24

it in his left hand and he will

01:16:24 --> 01:16:24

say,

01:16:30 --> 01:16:31

I am the Malik. Where are

01:16:32 --> 01:16:34

the tyrants? Where are the proud on this

01:16:34 --> 01:16:35

day?

01:16:35 --> 01:16:38

And so when we read, you know, Surah

01:16:38 --> 01:16:39

Al Fatiha

01:16:40 --> 01:16:42

and we read Malikiyaum

01:16:43 --> 01:16:43

Midin.

01:16:44 --> 01:16:45

Now we have

01:16:46 --> 01:16:48

a meaning that perhaps we never thought about

01:16:48 --> 01:16:48

before.

01:16:49 --> 01:16:51

And this is the benefit of learning about

01:16:51 --> 01:16:54

the names of Allah and also the benefit

01:16:54 --> 01:16:54

of

01:16:56 --> 01:16:58

doing tadabbur of the Quran, reflecting over the

01:16:58 --> 01:16:59

Quran.

01:16:59 --> 01:17:02

You know, we shouldn't just read the meanings

01:17:02 --> 01:17:04

and just suffice with that. We should really

01:17:04 --> 01:17:05

delve into the meanings

01:17:05 --> 01:17:08

and understand why is Allah saying what he's

01:17:08 --> 01:17:08

saying?

01:17:09 --> 01:17:10

Why is Allah saying what he's saying?

01:17:12 --> 01:17:14

Finally, the last lesson that we can mention

01:17:16 --> 01:17:19

is that these names should make us turn

01:17:19 --> 01:17:20

to Allah and

01:17:20 --> 01:17:22

seek all of our needs

01:17:23 --> 01:17:25

of the dunya and the akhirah from him

01:17:25 --> 01:17:28

alone as He is the only owner who

01:17:28 --> 01:17:29

owns everything.

01:17:30 --> 01:17:32

Even what is in the hands of others,

01:17:34 --> 01:17:36

right? It actually belongs to Allah as we

01:17:36 --> 01:17:37

mentioned earlier

01:17:38 --> 01:17:38

and

01:17:39 --> 01:17:41

only He can take it out of their

01:17:41 --> 01:17:42

hands and force it to give it to

01:17:42 --> 01:17:42

you.

01:17:44 --> 01:17:44

Right?

01:17:45 --> 01:17:46

So don't humiliate yourself

01:17:47 --> 01:17:49

by begging from the creation,

01:17:49 --> 01:17:52

rather beg the Creator in whose hands belongs

01:17:52 --> 01:17:53

everything.

01:17:54 --> 01:17:55

If you

01:17:56 --> 01:17:58

need something from someone,

01:17:58 --> 01:18:00

yes, you know, Islam doesn't say go and

01:18:00 --> 01:18:02

ask people for help

01:18:03 --> 01:18:04

Or, you know, if you need something from

01:18:04 --> 01:18:05

someone

01:18:05 --> 01:18:08

to ask for it from him.

01:18:08 --> 01:18:09

However,

01:18:09 --> 01:18:10

don't forget

01:18:11 --> 01:18:13

that you could ask Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala.

01:18:15 --> 01:18:17

Right? You can ask a lot to to

01:18:17 --> 01:18:19

make this person to help you.

01:18:21 --> 01:18:23

Right? When you do that you have this

01:18:23 --> 01:18:24

in mind.

01:18:25 --> 01:18:26

You have these names in mind,

01:18:27 --> 01:18:29

right? When you do that you have these

01:18:29 --> 01:18:30

names in mind.

01:18:31 --> 01:18:33

Al Malik, Al Malik, Al Malik

01:18:36 --> 01:18:39

And that's why the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

01:18:39 --> 01:18:41

says in the Hadith of Al Nuzul,

01:18:42 --> 01:18:43

the hadith

01:18:43 --> 01:18:46

of where he mentions that Allah descends to

01:18:46 --> 01:18:47

the lower heavens

01:18:47 --> 01:18:49

in the last 3rd of every night,

01:18:50 --> 01:18:52

In 1 narration, in 1 wording of that

01:18:52 --> 01:18:53

hadith,

01:18:55 --> 01:18:55

the Prophet

01:18:56 --> 01:18:58

says, Allah descends every night to the lowest

01:18:58 --> 01:18:59

heavens

01:18:59 --> 01:19:01

in the last 3rd of the night and

01:19:01 --> 01:19:03

he says Okay. And this is a wording

01:19:03 --> 01:19:05

that many people perhaps have not heard.

01:19:06 --> 01:19:08

He says, * Malik.

01:19:09 --> 01:19:11

* Malik. I am the Malik.

01:19:12 --> 01:19:14

Who is there who is calling upon me

01:19:14 --> 01:19:16

so that I can answer him? Who is

01:19:16 --> 01:19:18

there begging of me for something that I

01:19:18 --> 01:19:21

could grant him? Who is there seeking my

01:19:21 --> 01:19:23

forgiveness so that I could forgive him? And

01:19:23 --> 01:19:25

this continues until,

01:19:25 --> 01:19:28

until dawn, until fajr. And this wording is

01:19:28 --> 01:19:29

in Sahih Muslim.

01:19:29 --> 01:19:31

It is in Sahih Muslim.

01:19:31 --> 01:19:33

And so what this hadith shows us

01:19:34 --> 01:19:37

is Look at how Allah says, * Malik.

01:19:38 --> 01:19:39

Again, what's the,

01:19:40 --> 01:19:41

wisdom behind that?

01:19:42 --> 01:19:43

To encourage us

01:19:44 --> 01:19:45

to turn to Allah

01:19:46 --> 01:19:49

because everything is in in his hands.

01:19:50 --> 01:19:51

So ask him for your needs.

01:19:52 --> 01:19:55

Right? Ask him for your needs rather than

01:19:55 --> 01:19:56

asking the creation.

01:19:56 --> 01:19:58

And so that's what will suffice with. If

01:19:58 --> 01:20:01

there's any questions, we can perhaps take them.

01:20:02 --> 01:20:02

Okay.

01:20:03 --> 01:20:04

So,

01:20:06 --> 01:20:07

you know, if there's questions, you can ask

01:20:07 --> 01:20:08

after them.

01:20:10 --> 01:20:11

We'll just take 1 question.

01:20:12 --> 01:20:13

Go

01:20:13 --> 01:20:14

ahead.

01:20:35 --> 01:20:36

So the question is on that day, on

01:20:36 --> 01:20:37

the day of judgment,

01:20:38 --> 01:20:39

if you're hungry

01:20:39 --> 01:20:41

and you don't have any money and you

01:20:41 --> 01:20:43

don't have anything because we said no one's

01:20:43 --> 01:20:45

going to have anything on that day, right?

01:20:45 --> 01:20:46

You're not going to have any authority, you're

01:20:46 --> 01:20:48

not going to have anything. So what are

01:20:48 --> 01:20:49

you going to do? Basically

01:20:55 --> 01:20:57

Your current plan? Oh, it Normally now. Oh,

01:20:57 --> 01:20:59

okay. Okay. You mean now if you,

01:21:01 --> 01:21:04

so what was the question? Repeat it. Said

01:21:04 --> 01:21:05

that that day,

01:21:05 --> 01:21:07

he was hungry. Mhmm.

01:21:15 --> 01:21:15

Can you?

01:21:17 --> 01:21:18

Steel food.

01:21:19 --> 01:21:19

Yeah.

01:21:20 --> 01:21:20

Yeah. Basically,

01:21:21 --> 01:21:24

you know, someone who is in desperate need

01:21:24 --> 01:21:25

and if he does,

01:21:27 --> 01:21:27

basically

01:21:28 --> 01:21:30

Islam teaches us that you can't punish the

01:21:30 --> 01:21:33

person for that. And it happened. It happened

01:21:33 --> 01:21:35

in the time of Umar ibn Khattab when

01:21:35 --> 01:21:36

he was a Khalifa.

01:21:38 --> 01:21:41

He stopped chopping off people's hands for stealing.

01:21:42 --> 01:21:44

The reason for that was that there was

01:21:44 --> 01:21:46

a lot of poverty, there was a famine,

01:21:46 --> 01:21:49

there was a drought, there was no food.

01:21:50 --> 01:21:50

And,

01:21:51 --> 01:21:52

you know, he said,

01:21:53 --> 01:21:55

you know, if people are doing this, then

01:21:55 --> 01:21:56

it makes sense. They're going hungry.

01:21:57 --> 01:21:59

Right? So he he didn't punish them for

01:21:59 --> 01:21:59

that.
