My dear respected brothers
and if we have sisters
in Islam,
Man, you guys are asleep or something.
When I came all the way from the
US to you, not just from the shores
of the US, from Colorado or out there
in the desert
towards California, you know, far outland.
So
I I was surprised that you,
you asked me to, do the last verses,
2 verses of Surat Al Baqarah.
So, obviously, this is
the last two verses in the longest
chapter in the Quran.
So for you really to comprehend the last
2 verses, you have to comprehend what?
Seriously, you think those 2 verses have nothing
to do with the Surah?
It's part of the Surah. Right? You agree?
And actually the
concluding message.
So it must in a way
sum up
the message of the Surah.
Don't we normally try to
make up a conclusion that
in compass,
what was previously said in our speeches and
even in our articles, isn't that the fashion?
The same thing.
So I don't know how long I have.
I think it's like 45 minutes. Right?
Is it 45 minutes that I share?
Talk to me. I I I don't speak
English or something?
I have accent.
This is American accent. You guys you guys
understand my accent?
Is my English clear? Yes. So somehow I
feel like there is a disconnect there.
Or I feel like I'm coming from the
moon or something?
No. Seriously, how long do I still have?
4:30 minutes. So imagine in 45 minutes we
have to explain Surat Al Baqarah
to be able to understand the last two
verses
And we're gonna attempt to do that.
And I promise you I'll finish on time.
But with one promise that you hold the
Quran.
You know, if you're gonna spend the time
here anyways, unless your mom,
you know, force you to be here or
your wife,
whoever.
But if you're gonna stay here, just have
a Quran in a language that you can
understand.
So meaning the meanings in the language that
you understand. Of course, the Quran is harabi.
Right?
We're good? Everybody has a Quran?
You don't have a Quran, do you? Where's
your Quran?
Come on, find a Quran, young man.
Get a Quran, come on. You can do
that. Where's your Quran?
Nah, your old Quran, Come on. You're a
big Sheikh. Come on.
Find the Quran.
Connect with the Quran, guys.
This is the the book of Allah.
Imagine this is one of the attributes of
Allah we have at hand.
Sifatul Kalam, the attribute of speech.
Here.
Right
here.
The first question I wanna ask you
What is the difference? Just for me to
know the level we're dealing with. What is
the difference between
a Madani and a and what the decides
that? Yes.
So anything that is revealed in
Madinah
is Madani and anything that is revealed in
Mecca
is Makki.
Right?
Is that what you're
saying, Taeib?
Anyone do you guys agree to this?
Okay. That's the line because there are a
lot of Quran that was revealed like aliyahu
ma'atmatul raqum deenakum insulatul Ma'idah which is Madani
but it was revealed where?
In Mecca.
So
really the line that divides the 2 is
is
a hijrah.
Anything that was revealed before hijrah is considered
to be,
and anything that is revealed after hijrah is
considered to be Madani. So Surat Al Baqarah
is Madani.
Here's another question.
Is the order of the most half
The order of the Suras.
We know
the first chapter revealed in the Quran was
what?
Surat Iqra. You know what number in the
Mus'af?
96.
So obviously the Quran is not in the
order
of its descendants. You agree?
Right?
Now the question I'm asking you is this
order that we have,
do you know the difference between the two?
What is tawkifi?
That Allah instructed
the prophet
to put that order
or
the companions after
the prophet passed away, they made that order.
Which one?
It's Tawkeefi.
Logically,
psychologically,
all type. Although, I wanna tell you that
there are some scholars who actually believe it
is Tawkeefi.
There are actually scholars but the majority,
they say it's still because if it was
a stihade,
if it was left to the Sahaba to
decide,
obviously, we're gonna we would have different Masahid
with different order. Right?
Do you agree? Because the Sahaba would differ
in something like that because there is a
ground to differ.
But have you ever asked yourself
why Allah
chose Surah Al Baqarah to come at the
beginning of the Mus'af?
Have you ever asked that question?
Why Baqarah?
Obviously, Fatih makes because the entire Quran explains
in Fatih. How in Fatih is the opener?
But while in the first
chapter in the most Allah, it's madani.
Why?
Because Surat Al Baqarah
gives every Muslim
ID.
That's your ID.
Your identification.
Who you are.
Surah Al Baqarah has 286
verses.
What is the middle number of 286?
What?
1 what?
He has a, like, answer like, you're afraid
I'm gonna beat you up or something. Make
him sit, it's okay. You know? 1 what?
143.
143. Okay. That's the, British accent.
143.
That's the American way. Okay. Here you go.
But can you look and see what this
verse says?
That's your ID.
That's did you find it yet?
Not yet?
143?
You didn't find it yet? Yes. Can someone
read it for me?
That is your identity.
You're a witness over mankind.
Why?
Obviously, your messenger
is the last messenger.
There there will be no messenger after Rasulullah
Rasulahi.
Right?
And your Quran, your revelation is the final
revelation.
So logically,
who will convey Islam to the rest of
the world?
Mahdul A Prophet did his mission.
It's you and me.
In the farewell,
sermon,
Rasoolullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam Fil Hadid,
when he addressed his companions he said, a
yohannas,
all Muslims,
be informed that there will be no prophet
after me,
No book after me.
One day, you will be asked about me.
What will you say?
And then towards the end,
he said
now
it's your rule,
your job to convey.
Imagine the companions of the prophet
They took this command so seriously.
Imagine that.
They dispersed in Earth.
Within 12 years, Islam went to Turkey to
Zribijak to
Georgia collapsed. The Byzantine threatened.
But things, what,
Died out again.
That is why Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is
reminding you
of
your mission.
Now we need the Quran to figure out
who we are
and what what we're supposed to do in
this world. That's exactly I'm not telling you
I have chosen you
to convey my message after me.
Why did Allah say
Why? Because the only Ummah that Allah entrusted
the followers of their messenger
to convey the messenger after him.
This is why Al Baqarah was put
at the very,
front of the most have.
Now Al Baqarah is is very interesting because
it it
it talks about
the qualities
which you must have to witness.
And by the way, the witnessing
not only in this world
but in the hereafter too.
In the hereafter we know
in explaining that verse in Imam al Bukhari,
Rahimahullah
compiled hadith abi Saeed al Khudri radiAllahu anhu
that on the day of judgment Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala would call upon the people of
Nuh and
he will ask them did Nuh convey a
message to you? They will say no.
Never.
They will actually deny
that they received, a messenger.
So Allah will ask prophet Noah, did you
Yes. I did.
Who can bear witness that you did that?
Muhammad
Muhammad and his own.
Imagine the land of gathering prophet Nuh will
actually ask you to come to his
help.
Allah will call upon us. Did
Noah convey the message? Yes. He did.
Ma'al Mukum, how did you learn Quran and
Quran? We started the Quran. It was mentioned
in the Quran.
This is the witnessing in the lakra.
In the dunya, how do you witness?
I'm sure you guys have the Jehovah's Witness
here. We have them in America. Very nicely
dressed people and they come and,
you know.
You know, this is exactly your job. Exactly.
They are actually doing what Muslims should be
do doing, but actually our witnessing is a
little bit different. There's not knocking on doors
or something. No.
Our witnessing by embodying Quran,
embodying the religion,
living the religion.
Mahwah
one of the
predecessors, Hisham, asked Aisha about the character of
the prophet. What did she say?
I wouldn't use that talk in Quran thing
because that's, you know, supported,
that the Quran has created.
The embodiment of the Quran.
He was what? Did you read the Quran?
He was the Quran. Illustration of the Quran
in his character. The way he speaks. The
way he talks. That's how we witness.
Of course,
Abu Al Aula had,
Maudud, if you're familiar with him, had a
very interesting writing on this matter. He said
there are 3 ways that we witness.
Kalima,
through the Kalima which is dawah.
Like some brother would go out like Sheikh
Othman, if you're from an Abu Dhabi, he'll
go on the street and what
put his dawah booth there and
this is one
action
that you actually act your character.
You know, you
you don't you don't lie. You don't cheat.
You don't backbite. You pray 5 times a
day wherever you are. You live you live
Islam.
But here is the the governance
one which is the the top form which
is the Khalifa. That you establish the Khalifa
to actually,
witness with a with
with an entity, with a political entity.
But that's how we witness. But we don't
go and knock on doors. We don't do
that.
I mean, if if you wanna do it,
you can do it. But, no. That's the
the way that you do it, that when
people see you,
they see Islam.
And you can tell why,
you know, we're because we're not doing that,
unfortunately.
We're not doing that.
So this is the witnessing.
Now,
for you to witness
whether in in in in kanima,
in action or in governance,
the individuals must have 2 qualities,
2 attributes
when it comes to the revelation.
I came up
with an abstract
of,
a small
Look at this. The
revelation.
If you look at the revelation and examine
it,
you will find
it categorized
into
matters of unseen.
Allah is telling us things that we cannot
verify
with our senses.
Like,
we don't see Allah, do we?
Right? Angels.
They have judgment.
Allah is telling us about the people of
Nuw, the people of Ad, the people of
Samud. Have you seen those?
Right.
So this what we call what? Unseen. We
call this what?
Unseen.
So this is the first part of the
revelation.
The second is the commands.
Do this. Do not do that.
Do and don't.
Now for you to
witness
effectively,
you must
have towards
the unseen
and towards
the commands.
You must believe without any shadow of doubt,
any unseen. Allah told you in the Quran.
They don't question it.
Even if it doesn't make sense to
Like I I tell you,
last night,
you know, I'm staying in the Holiday Inn
Express.
So by all of a sudden, I'm in
the top level.
SubhanAllah. By all of a sudden, the, the
ceiling opened.
And the rocket came down,
and I went to the moon and I
came back.
Why are you laughing?
What?
You don't believe me, do you?
You know, this is how it exactly
sounded in Mecca when the prophet
woke up one day, and he said, I
went to Jerusalem. I came
back. Exactly.
Right?
The logical. Right?
That's why the these believers, they said what?
We beat the necks of camels 40 days
to get there.
And he went yeah. By the way, he
didn't tell them about the, he just told
them about what
he didn't tell them the issue.
Like, told them the.
Some of you actually may
hear this for the first time that some
Muslims actually left Islam because of this.
Because for them was what?
But when they went to Abu Bakr, Sadiq,
right here. I I just wanna convey that
concept of
in a in a nutshell here. We can
talk about it in in abundance.
They told him what? Your friend what?
What did he say?
What did Abu Bakr say?
What was his only reservation?
Okay. Did he say that?
That's all.
Did Allah say that? Did the messenger say
that?
Alas. I believe it.
I know that the he's the all knower.
Right? His knowledge.
So why would I question something like that?
By
the commands,
you raise your hand. You say what? We
hear and
we wait. And subhanahu wa'alaikum, the entire surah
was named after the story of the compliance.
Although if you look at Surah Al Baqarah,
there are something like 7
out of this world stories.
Ibrahim and the birds. Ibrahim and in Namrut.
What else out there? Azair?
There is one more I forgot here.
But why the Surah was named after Al
Baqarah? Because it serves that purpose.
If some of you are not familiar with
the story of Al Baqarah, it's Israel yet.
We don't believe it. We don't believe it.
But the story reads that,
some guy killed his uncle
and he dragged his body to
some other
soups.
When Bani Israel were living in the desert,
they were divided into 12
tribes.
So in the morning,
they accused this tribe of of of murder.
They said, no. We never killed the guy.
We never we don't know anything about him.
So they started quarreling.
So they said to,
you know, they started fighting. Then they said,
why do we fight when we have someone
who can speak to Allah amongst us?
Someone who can actually
solve that
crime,
the mystery. So they went to Musa alaihis
salam.
Musa made dua
then you told them what
Allah has commanding you to do what?
Allah
is commanding you to slaughter a cow.
I think quite frankly,
I for the sake of
what is the relationship between figuring out a
murderer
and slaughtering a cow? Logically doesn't what?
It doesn't click
but you don't do it with Allah.
With Allah it's gonna click somehow.
With the commands you're supposed to say what?
I hear and what?
I hear and what?
I hear and
what? Obey.
Don't find look at many Israel what they
did.
Which color? What cow?
That's many Muslims do this now.
Is hijab in the Quran? Yeah. It is
in the Quran, sister.
It's
but but but
for the 2 qualities
that you must have
to witness are what?
Tazdik and
tatbirq.
Compliance. You can say them in English. Attestation
and compliance.
Amazing at the beginning of Surah Al Baqarah.
Now we're gonna explain from 1 until 21.
Allah started the chapter with categorizing mankind into
3 types.
The type who will witness,
the kuffar and al munafiqul.
3 thighs.
And Allah mentioned the 2 qualities
that you must have
in order to be be full into what?
The category who will witness.
Look at this. 5 verses. The first 5
years.
Look at the first quality. What's
Then
the
in 2 verses.
Then the hypocrites,
11.
Because we need to be able to identify
them.
And then comes in the first call in
the Quran, Yeah, Youhanas,
which is verse 21.
I really want you to witness for me.
Yeah.
No.
So I really want you to witness for
me.
So the only way for you to do
this is if you engage into the actions
of the first category.
Amazing Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
until verse 143
will present to us
3
models.
The first is experimental.
The story of Adam and Satan.
The second is cautionary,
the story of many Israel.
And the third is exemplary.
Ibrahim and his family.
That's all until 1 verse 143.
Allah wanna show you how the test is.
That is why the story of Adam is
presented.
In that story,
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is telling you that
there is an enemy out there who would
make sure that you
feel witnessing.
He's gonna be after you.
And this is his tricks, his trickery.
And what should you do if you
fail?
For the story of
Adam and Satan really
was placed in the muzhaf
as an experiment.
And,
there are evidence
to validate
the claim.
One of them is Hadith Abi Hurayira
that Musa
met Adam alayhis salam, in the night of
when
the prophet,
alayhis salam, led all the messengers in salaam
and masjid al Aqsa.
Musa
approached Adam,
and he said to him, you are Adam
our father. You're the one who got us
out of the
garden. So Adam looked at him and he
said, you are Musa. The one that Allah
tawrah with his with his hands. He said,
yes. Didn't you read in the tawrah that
this was something that is ordained upon me?
Now again, be careful. We don't use the
qadr here to justify
because Adam repented from the sin.
So he may do that.
But it is written.
Also, another Hadith.
Muslim.
Hadith The best day the sun ever rose
on is which day?
Friday. Friday. Why?
Why?
Adam was created on this day.
Adam was admitted
into
Jannah.
Here's the interesting piece and Adam exited Jannah.
So what was good in that? Adam exiting
Jena.
His kids learning
the whole
cycle of the test.
You're you're getting it or no? You understand
the essence of it or no?
The second
that is if you look at the, Moshev
here,
of course, 30 until
39 is the story of Adam.
Then comes in the next
which
verses
40
all the way, by the way, all the
way. Just move up 40
until
123.
This part of
this is Bani Israel. Allah is telling you,
don't be like them.
If you wanna witness,
don't be like those people.
Don't mimic them.
So amazing in the in the most half,
the first.
Anyone knows what is the first
in the most half?
I I think 104, 103, or 106 around
it.
Verse 104, 103,
106. Right? What does it say?
Let the Let the
don't say that word that they used to
say.
Don't mimic them.
Don't be like them.
You guys know you're familiar with the story
behind ra'ina that they used to say
ra'ina in an insulting way to the prophet.
Of course, the word it's a haravi word
which
basically when you wanna tell somebody,
like be mindful of me, you tell him
ra'aina.
But when you twist the words
which means arrogance.
So it can be insulting.
Exactly like when, they would pass by the
prophetess of salam and they say
And it sounds like what?
But instead of saying they say what?
What is the difference between?
Peace and death.
Right?
That's why Aisha would
get very upset
and she would run after them,
you know, cursing them and the prophet Aisha
just, you know, chill. Just leave them alone,
you know.
Why why why don't be like them, by
the way?
Because they failed in in in all aspects.
But be careful.
Be careful.
Not all of them.
That is why Ikhwah sometimes amongst these verses
you will find Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala actually
making an exception.
Like the famous verse which some of the
progressive Muslims used to validate that, you know,
Jews and Christians are gonna go to Jannah
like us and
which verse 62. Right? Look at verse 62.
A famous verse that people use,
the progressive people. You know, the people who
really are not grounded in the knowledge of
Aqid and Islam,
they would use.
You see, those are exception from what?
From those people Allah is talking about.
You guys getting it or no?
So
It's like Allah is is telling you those
guys are bad, bad, bad, bad. Look, there
are some of those.
They are not all like that.
And I will reward those.
Now the problem with Muslims is what? They
extend that beyond what? To our time.
You have to contextualize it. You have to
keep it in context. Historical context.
Likewise, by the way, in fairness also, when
Allah tells us about,
oh, be mean to them.
Don't take them for friends. Don't
likewise,
this has to be given a context.
Not everybody,
but those who are hostile to you. Those
who are back to you. But the others,
you're supposed to be what? I mean, how
are you gonna give them? What if you're
gonna do?
Do? You have to what? Also, give it
a context. You're
getting the point or no?
Take for example,
we're supposed to believe without seeing Allah.
What did they say to Musa?
They wanna see Allah to believe.
No. No. No. They killed the prophets. They
killed the messengers.
They messed up the books.
So don't be like them. Again, the because
of the time,
you know,
I have a book by the way called
Roadmap.
It's available on my website for free. You
can PDF
it for free. You can buy it from
Amazon if you want.
But, all of this is there,
the road I called it road map to
Al Baqarah Al Imran.
I was actually in Birmingham,
doing Green Lane Masjid.
I did this in a weekend
workshop for the people there. They enjoyed it.
The book is there, PDF, in my website.
Maybe the brothers can share the
the link with you.
Look look at the
third one which is what? Ebrahima
124.
Exemplary.
The least I can tell you that many
Israel were asked to slaughter a cow.
They were reluctant.
Ibrahim was asked to slaughter who?
Who? He took about
that shows you the caliber of the
of the and and amazing, by the way,
you'll be surprised
to find out that,
Ismael Ali Ibrahim alaihis salam was actually commanded
through,
a mutual
form of revelation shared with us which is
what
we know revelations are what?
Is levels that
Jibril comes,
or Allah would inspire you.
But there is a form that is shared
between the prophets and the layman. Me and
you which is what?
Dreams.
So, Ibrahim was commanded to slay his son
in what?
This is the lowest. This is the yeah.
I mean, I wouldn't say the lowest, But
with the prophets, it's authentic because we know
that shayateen don't come to the prophets in
their dreams.
But, you know, anyone in his mind who
loves his son would say, okay. You know
what? I'm willing to do it, but I'll
wait for another confirmation.
He didn't do that.
Even her son knew that.
We can mess around this.
Good?
Good enough?
Imagine we we explain the free Jews of
the Quran.
The free Jews are right here. Until 1
verse 143.
Right?
The free Jews.
There are 3 types of people in this
world.
Believers,
disbelievers,
hypocrites.
You have the choice. Which one would you
like to be?
It's your choice.
You wanna witness for me?
These are the two qualities that you must
have
in order to witness.
To actualize that witnessing.
And the words and the actions
leading inshallah to the Khalafa, establishing the Khalafa.
Now,
learn from history.
Who's your enemy? Adam.
Don't be like the children of Israel when
it comes to these things. Be like Ibrahim.
That is why Ikhwa subhanAllah every year Allah
Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala takes
multitudes of this Umrah to go and just
walk through the,
footsteps of Ibrahim. Hajj and Umrah, I mean.
Hajj al Umrah is all about Ibrahim. To
remind you of his sacrifices.
Because Quran.
He's always presented to us to be the
exemplary.
Even to our messenger by the way.
Ibrahim Hanif.
Amazing echo with the,
identification
verse, the ID verse.
What number is the ID verse?
143.
That's your ID.
Subhanallah
comes in the change of the Qibla in
the same time.
Being witnesses, you can't be following other people
Even in good things.
You have to be what?
Distinct.
You have to be different.
Some of you might not know that that
the Muslims
used to pray toward Jerusalem until
this verse was revealed.
Even in Mecca, by the way, they used
to pray toward Jerusalem.
But in Mecca, it was not an issue
because if you take one corner of the
Kaaba, you could end
up facing both. But in Medina, it became
what?
Because we couldn't do that in Medina.
And for your information, this is one of
the reasons
which
deter
Bani Israel, the Jews,
from following the prophet.
They said he's following our qibla. Why would
we he's praying to our qibla.
That's why Allah immediately
after that verse. No. You have a different
kremlin now.
That is why he say, akhulush sufaha. That's
why they they like this one. Right? They
like it
Because now they understood
that they have to follow him,
which they
declined anyways.
That shows you.
Even
in when it comes to rituals.
The
prophet tells you what? Dye your beard. The
Jews do not dye their
beard.
Drain your shoes. They don't they they
they don't drain your the shoes.
Fasting.
Okay. We're gonna fast one day before, one
day after. Can be. Can be.
He can't be.
Look at these guys in.
They are building what? Abrahamic.
They don't even get it.
You can be.
Well, that's why and
America in particular, they end up doing putting
all these and I'm I'm not sure here
in, in England they do this or not.
They put together these,
Masjid, synagogue, and church in one what? In
these public areas, in the airports, in the
you you have this here too? Yeah. You
see, it's a whole thing. Is it for
you
up? This thing becomes what?
No. You can't do that.
We tell our community that don't pray. Pray
pray out in the street.
The prophet said,
what? The prophet said, earth is my masjid
for me. We know that all of earth
is masjid except in hamam,
certain areas again, and the graveyards.
But you can pray anywhere. You don't have
to have a
actually, you're supposed to pray anywhere so that
remember the action thing, remember the witnessing an
action. So they see you praying.
That's why the qibla.
You have a different direction now.
But right away comes in.
Allah is telling you what?
You're gonna be tested.
They're gonna come after you.
So in the sub you have to be
patient now.
That's why these verses comes right after that
tablet. Because you're gonna be what? Distinct. You're
not gonna be
you're not gonna be their follower their follower.
You're gonna you're gonna say, no. I'm I'm
sorry. I'm different.
I I can then you're gonna be tested.
So
Amazing you will find the Surah all the
way until the last three verses which you
asked me to explain.
How long I still have?
Time wise, please.
10? Yeah. We're doing good. Imagine
the entire,
chapter all the way until the last three
verses.
Now is the curriculum,
the guidelines,
the blueprint,
the scripture.
What you're supposed to implement
and convey.
And all those when you want to encapsulate
this and and put this in a,
all the commands
in the in the in the religion of
Islam, whether it is a prophetic command or
a Quranic command
or prohibition,
are geared
to protect
5 things.
To make sure that these 5
these 5 things
exist.
The scholars call them what?
The 5
necessity. Number 1, the
religion.
That's why it's salah
and Surat Al Baqarah.
That's why fasting
Isn't
Hajj
And that's section 2.
To
The protection of the human
life,
soul.
The sanctity of life. By the way, whether
Muslim or a non Muslim.
By establishing the flow of retribution,
you can save a lot of lives.
When when killers would
see that
there will be a recompense
for their
transgression, basically.
What is what is number 3?
The next generation. That's why when you recite
all of a sudden you find the Quran
going into
divorce,
marriage, life. Now this has to do with
the family.
People think that these are verses are just
added up brand.
No. Allah is telling you we have to
protect the next generation. Now I'm gonna talk
to you about
religion that tells you what to do with
your life.
Then comes in what?
That's why there is a verse
then the the the wolf. SubhanAllah. The protection
of the wolf.
Imagine the longest
verse in the Quran is about the protection
of the wolf
which is Ayatul what? It's called Ayatul what?
So for all the commands, you will find
all these verses here
are building this.
How many minutes I still have?
7?
5. 5.
Imagine now
now I'm gonna start now now I can
explain the last three verses of
Jibril alaihi salam comes down to the prophet.
And whatever I'm saying is,
with this verse
284.
Look at verse 284.
What does it say?
Allah is telling you that whether
you reveal
or conceal what you're thinking about,
you're a
sinner.
You getting the point or no?
That when you think about something Haram, it's
written as if you did it.
Oh, yeah.
Well, that's what the verse says.
The companions of the prophet, the hadith. I'm
I'm calling the hadith. The companions of the
prophet
came to him
kneeling. They went down on their knees.
Jahu
Alar woke up.
But this one?
Never in in your mind think that the
companions are rejecting.
No.
Campaign
Sahaba, they always,
strive to attain excellence in order to send
in implementing the command. They they don't settle
for what.
And quite frankly, this is what?
This is a tough one.
But look what the prophet said to them.
He reminded them of the cautionary tale.
He said to them,
Are you gonna say
like the followers of the 2 books before
you? What did they say? What they used
to say? And and what? We hear and
what?
Sorry. I just the scale.
You know the the the the word you
know
what? Slip of a tongue.
The tongue what?
Slip not from sleeping. The slippery thing is
slip.
Oh, that tells you that in in their
heart, they never had an intention to what?
Listen, sometimes somebody comes to you and say,
well, you know, I ask you a question.
And then when you answer him and you
show him the evidence,
if he
really was seeking the truth, he will say,
okay. I'll do it.
But if he's not, he's gonna give you
another question.
No. The companions will do.
SubhanAllah
as soon as they sit
Jibril by the way was sitting next to
the prophet
This is another hadith.
They heard a crack.
He said, you Rasoolallah,
this is a gate in heaven for the
first time to open, and there is an
angel who never been given permission to come
down to earth before. This is his first
time.
He brought down the last two verses which
we're supposed to explain.
Look at this now. That's why I told
you the the the last two verses of
of Surah Al Baqarah
are
a summary of the entire surah. Look at
this.
