Kamil Ahmad – The Strangers Episode #22 Passing on the Message

			He causes me to
		

			do the movie to the one.
		

			And the journey will bring.
		

			Bismillah Alhamdulillah wa Salatu was Salam ala Rasulillah. While early he was off the edge marine
another, welcome back to another episode of the strangers. In this series of episodes, we've been
going through that hadith of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, where he said that Islam began
as something strange. And it will once again return to being something strange in the same manner in
which it began.
		

			So glad tidings for, for the strangers. So there's no doubt that the times in which we're living in
today, that strangeness has once again reappeared. And so Islam in the world today, is looked at as
being something strange, and the people who follow it, not just Muslims, who are Muslims by name No,
the people who follow it, the true followers of Islam, the ones who adhere to it, who practice it,
based on how Allah wants us to practice it, they are not looked at as, as strangers. And so in the
last few episodes, we've been going through pieces of advice for all those strangers out there in
the world today, that will help them to remain firm, upon that straight course, that straight path
		

			of Allah subhanahu wa data, although it's very difficult. And so in today's episode, I wanted to
stress on an important point. And that is passing on the strangeness meaning passing on the message
of Islam. And so, as we have mentioned previously, the reality is that we human beings, cannot live
by ourselves, we cannot live alone, we have to live with others, and we have to interact with
others. And so, our interaction with others, either it will result in influencing others, or the
opposite of us being influenced by the others. And so the question is, which one do you want to be?
Do you want to be the one influenced by others. And so as a result, abandon your strangeness, and
		

			give in to the pressures of your people, your family members, your society? Or do you want to be
among those who influenced them, who have a positive effect on them, causing them to change their
ways, causing them to also become strangers. And so when we look at the characteristics that have
been mentioned, of the strangers that the Prophet salallahu, Alaihe Salam spoke of, we find that he
mentioned various characteristics of the strangers, but among these characteristics, is that they
are those who reform when the people have become corrupted. They are those who reform when the
people have become corrupted. And in another narration, he says, They reform what the people have
		

			corrupted of my sunnah. And in another Hadith, he said, that they are a people who are righteous,
among a larger people who are evil, those who disobey them, outnumber those who obey them. And so we
could see from these characteristics of the strangers is that they are also those who teach others.
They are not only those who reformed themselves, but rather they reform others. And so they are
involved in the path of Dawa. They are involved in the path of the prophets and the messengers. This
Noble Path is their path. And so they are involved in teaching others, they are involved in
commanding the good, forbidding the evil, and they are involved in calling others to becoming
		

			upright. They are involved in calling others to the religion of Islam and remaining steadfast upon
it. And the reality is that those who are successful in this life are those who Allah says
		

			Who want to add? I mentioned when he said, we'll ask, he swore by time, by time, I swear by time in
null in Santa Luffy hustle.
		

			Rarely, indeed, man is in a state of loss. And then Allah mentions the exception. Every human being
is in a state of loss, except ill Alladhina amanu What am Euro Solly hurt? What a while, so we'll
help what our household is sober, except those who they believe. And then those who act, they do
righteous, good deeds, and then those who advise one another upon the truth, meaning, they teach
others, they advise others, they command the good, they forbid the evil, they are involved in Dawa.
And finally, what Allah so be sober, those who advise one another, to remain patient, persevere with
patience, endure the harm and the difficulties that are going to be upon this path. And so that is
		

			why this surah this one surah, although short, extremely short, it is massive in its meaning, and
that's why the Scholars say, among them, Imam Shafi he says, that if Allah had not revealed any
other Surah, besides the Surah, it would have been sufficient for us, it would have been sufficient
a guide for us in this dunya.
		

			And so Allah begins with Eman, become believers have a strong belief in your heart. Not only that,
but follow it up with action. And so act upon that knowledge that is in your heart. And that is a
man in your heart, act upon it. And then not only that, don't stop there, no, advise others, call
others to this good call others teach others give dower to others. And then finally, after all that,
there's going to be a lot of difficulties upon this path. This path of Eman knowledge and data,
there's going to be a lot of hurdles to cross to jump. And so that's why Allah says, advise one
another, to remain patient, advise one another, to persevere, to hold on fast to the rope of Allah
		

			subhanho wa Taala advise one another, to remain firm and steadfast through these four things. Allah
subhanho wa Taala tells us that man is saved from being in loss, meaning that he will be successful
when both in this dunya and the next. And so when we look at the importance of giving Dawa, we find
that there are many benefits in it. First of all, by being involved in teaching others about the
message of Islam, teaching others about the truth of Islam, the correct way of worshipping Allah
subhanho wa taala. Calling others to the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam we see
that doing so is fulfilling an obligation. And so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said badly
		

			who I need, what have I conveyed from me even if it be a single verse, meeting, teach others, even
if it be whatever little knowledge you have, the point is, teach it, convey it, no matter how small
it may be, whether it be in the form of words, or in the form of actions, the point is conveyed the
message of Islam, wherever you be, no matter which state you're in, it is an obligation. Also, among
the benefits of being involved in Dawa is the fact that when you involve yourself in teaching others
and you involve yourself in the Dawa, you are actually treading the path of the prophets of Allah
subhanho wa taala. And you are doing the job of our Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
		

			and so the Prophet, ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada commanded him to say he could have he Sebby li de rue era
Allah He a high level so you wrote in Anna woman he Tabby honey, Allah commanded him to say this is
my path, the straight path I call to Allah upon this path upon wisdom, Allah basura upon insight,
Erna one Manitoba I nee, nee and those who follow me. So we are followers of the Prophet
		

			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam are we not? Of course we are. And so if we are, then let us do the job
that he did. Not only that, but the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, that the prophets and
messengers did not inherit anything, no wealth, did they inherit, no dyrham, no dinar, but what did
they inherit, they inherited knowledge. And so the scholars are the inheritors of the prophets. So,
the scholars, they inherit that knowledge, the knowledge of Revelation, and they convey it to
others. And so we see from this, that by teaching whatever knowledge we have of the deen to others,
we are, we are treading the path of the prophets and the messengers and we are fulfilling the task
		

			of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam as a guide for humanity will continue after a short break
as Salaam Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.

			Assalamu alaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh Welcome back. Before the break, we were speaking about
some of the benefits of being involved in Dawa, especially living as strangers in this world. And so
among the benefits of it, is that we are fulfilling an obligation. And so giving Dawa preaching what
we know of the deen to others is an obligation. Also among the benefits is that we are doing the job
of our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam as being a guide for others, guiding others, teaching
others the beauty of this Deen among the benefits of being involved in Dawa and calling to others to
Allah subhanho wa Taala and to the obedience of ALLAH SubhanA who were to Hana is that you are being
		

			Part of the change that you want to see.
		

			And so isn't it true that you as a stranger, want to see change? You live in a strange world, people
look at you strangely. Don't you want the strangeness to vanish there earlier strangers, the
companions of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam who are strangers with him few in number in
Makkah, they wanted to see that too. They wanted to see everyone accepted Islam, they wanted Islam
to prevail. They wanted to see change, they were persecuted, they were tortured. And Islam was
humiliated, but they wanted to see the change. So if you want to see the change, then be a part of
it. Be a part of the change for Allah subhanho wa Taala said in Allah La you are you will not be a
		

			Coleman had euro euro Nabi unfussy him, that Allah subhanho wa Taala does not change the condition
of a people until they change themselves. If you want your pupil,
		

			those around you to change for the better. Then you need to change yourself, reform yourself and
then reform others and be an important part of that change. Also, among the benefits of giving dower
especially as strangers is that it strengthens one's Eman and his steadfastness, remaining firm and
steadfast upon that path. And so Allah subhanho wa Taala tells us that those who are successful are
those who command the good and forbid the evil, a group that exists among the believers. So Allah
says, Welter coming Come on the other ruder, Ilahi Morona. Bill now roof way and how will your
annual Moncure What will our Iike Humann muffler shown? Allah says, Let there be a group among you,
		

			who will call to good, who will give dower to that which is good, who will command the good and
forbid the evil? And then Allah says, they are the successful, they are those who are successful,
those who have these traits, they call to good, they command the good and they forbid, they forbid
the evil. Also among the benefits of being involved in Dawa teaching others, whether it be non
Muslims, or whether it be our own Muslim brothers and sisters, is that through giving dower and
persevering upon that path, one attains great reward. And so there are many great rewards for those
who call others to the deen of Allah subhana who were to Allah. And so that is why the Prophet
		

			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said to Ali, probably Allah Who and he swore by Allah and he said by
Allah, if Allah guides a single person to Islam, through you, it would be better than having the
best of camels. And so it is like having the best of cars today, the BMWs the Ferraris the
Lamborghinis to call to Allah subhanahu Uttara. And for someone to be guided at your hands is better
than all that. And how could it not be When guiding a person, whatever he does, the rewards go back
to you for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that if you revive a sunnah of his, and
people follow you, and those who do that, the reward comes back to you, whatever they do now,
		

			whatever they do have, the sooner that you revive that reward that they have, it comes back to you
without diminishing your reward in any way whatsoever. Not only that, but we will see the rewards
and the fruits of that even after we have passed away. And so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said, when a man dies and is buried in his grave, his good deeds come to an end. He cannot do
any more good deeds, except three things, they follow him to his grave and remain with him. They are
an ongoing charity, beneficial knowledge that he left behind, or righteous offspring, righteous
children that will pray for him. And so we see that one of these things is it is leaving behind
		

			beneficial knowledge, leaving behind beneficial knowledge that will benefit the people, even while
you're in your grave. How is that not the case? When these people they will read a book that you
wrote an article that you may have written a lecture that may have been recorded and remained after
you die, that the people are benefiting from and they are saying may Allah have mercy on you? Well,
		

			You're in your grave, and you're receiving the Mercy of Allah subhanho wa taala. And how is that not
the case, when you are in your grave, and these people are doing righteous deeds based on that
knowledge that you left behind. And so that reward is being added to your balance of deeds, even
after you have died and gone from this dunya. Finally, among the benefits, and there are many, many
benefits of being involved in giving Dawa teaching others but we'll mention one last one, and that
is that it Ward's off punishment. It Ward's off the punishment of Allah subhana, who with the
island, and so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, By Allah, in whose hand my soul is, you
		

			will enjoy the good and forbid the evil. Otherwise, Allah subhanahu ATOD will soon send a punishment
upon you, and then you will call upon Him, you will ask him for help and he will not respond to you.
And so it shows the importance of commanding the good forbidding the evil, teaching the people what
is good, telling them to refrain from evil because it Ward's off the punishment of Allah subhanho wa
taala. And so each and every single one of us needs to realize the importance and the huge
responsibility that is upon our shoulders of giving Dawa the task of teaching others this deal of Al
Islam. Let us take the best of examples, the examples of the first strangers who accepted Islam at
		

			the hands of the Prophet salAllahu alayhi wasallam and were strangers among their people. The
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would send them back to their people, their tribes, you will say
go back and teach your people. And so a Buddha was one of them. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam told him to go back to his people, and teach them. And then once he has heard that the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam has emerged, and Islam has prevailed den come to me, and I will
teach you more. Look at the stories of the early companions, who are sent as delegates as
ambassadors, as do I as callers to Allah mazahub In Romania, or the Allahu Han, the first deputy in
		

			Islam, the first teacher, and call her after our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, who was sent
to Medina on an official mission by the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to prepare the InSAR in
their new founded religion, and to prepare them to receive them who had you rune. And then look at
the other companions, one after the other, how they became do add colors to the religion of Islam,
the holy Rhodiola Hoolahan, Abu Musa al Ashari, who are sent to Yemen, to invite the people of Yemen
to Islam. And so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told them, when you go there, you're going
to meet a people who are al Kitab, who are people of the Scripture, let the first thing that you
		

			invite them to be the Tauheed of Allah, calling them to worship Allah alone, not associating
partners with Allah, if they accept that from you, then teach them the Salah, if they accept that,
then teach them the next important thing, and so on and so forth. And so they were too hot. They
were callers, they were teachers, they were spreading the religion of Islam. And look at all the
other callers, the teachers, and the caller's who guided humanity after the death of the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and look at how Islam spread far and wide. Today, you would not be a
Muslim, and Islam would not have reached you if it was not for their sacrifice. In getting out there
		

			and spreading the light of Al Islam. I leave you with some very, very beautiful words. And these
words are the words of a great companion. Ribbit, a gibbon hammock. Radi Allahu Han, who was sent to
basically talk with the commander of the Persian army, when the Muslims after the death of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam had reached the borders of Persia, and they were now going to
face off against the huge Persian army. And so rebury, even Herman was sent as a delegate to speak
with them. And so they asked him, what brings you people here? You know, Matt, you Arabs, what
brings you here? And so read there, you didn't have to look at how he held his head high and do not
		

			feel embarrassed. Rather, he felt proud for his Islam. And he said, we have come to you not on our
own accord. But rather, Allah has
		

			enters, to remove those whom He wills from the slavery of man, and take them to the slavery of
Allah, to remove them from the narrowness of this world, toward its vastness, and from the
oppression and injustice of religions, to the justice of Islam. And so, we see that we Muslims have
been sent to call humanity, out of darkness to the light of Islam. This is what we have been sent
for. And so although You are a stranger out there in the world, spread the light of Islam, do not
remain and refrain from teaching others and spreading Islam and causing the strangeness of Islam to
disappear. Without we come to the end of this episode. And in sha Allah Huhtala we will see you all
		

			on another episode of the strangers until then Subhanak Allah who will be handed fresh head to Allah
Illa Illa and pesto Fuuka where to eat he was Salam Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
