00:01:06--> 00:01:08

My dear respected brothers

00:01:08--> 00:01:10

and if we have sisters

00:01:10--> 00:01:11

in Islam,

00:01:18--> 00:01:20

Man, you guys are asleep or something.

00:01:26--> 00:01:28

When I came all the way from the

00:01:28--> 00:01:31

US to you, not just from the shores

00:01:31--> 00:01:34

of the US, from Colorado or out there

00:01:34--> 00:01:34

in the desert

00:01:35--> 00:01:38

towards California, you know, far outland.

00:01:39--> 00:01:39

So

00:01:45--> 00:01:46

I I was surprised that you,

00:01:47--> 00:01:50

you asked me to, do the last verses,

00:01:50--> 00:01:52

2 verses of Surat Al Baqarah.

00:01:54--> 00:01:55

So, obviously, this is

00:01:56--> 00:01:58

the last two verses in the longest

00:01:59--> 00:02:00

chapter in the Quran.

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

So for you really to comprehend the last

00:02:04--> 00:02:07

2 verses, you have to comprehend what?

00:02:11--> 00:02:14

Seriously, you think those 2 verses have nothing

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

to do with the Surah?

00:02:16--> 00:02:19

It's part of the Surah. Right? You agree?

00:02:20--> 00:02:21

And actually the

00:02:21--> 00:02:22

concluding message.

00:02:23--> 00:02:25

So it must in a way

00:02:25--> 00:02:26

sum up

00:02:27--> 00:02:28

the message of the Surah.

00:02:30--> 00:02:32

Don't we normally try to

00:02:32--> 00:02:35

make up a conclusion that

00:02:35--> 00:02:36

in compass,

00:02:38--> 00:02:41

what was previously said in our speeches and

00:02:41--> 00:02:44

even in our articles, isn't that the fashion?

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

The same thing.

00:02:48--> 00:02:50

So I don't know how long I have.

00:02:50--> 00:02:52

I think it's like 45 minutes. Right?

00:02:53--> 00:02:55

Is it 45 minutes that I share?

00:02:57--> 00:02:59

Talk to me. I I I don't speak

00:02:59--> 00:03:00

English or something?

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

I have accent.

00:03:01--> 00:03:04

This is American accent. You guys you guys

00:03:04--> 00:03:05

understand my accent?

00:03:06--> 00:03:09

Is my English clear? Yes. So somehow I

00:03:09--> 00:03:11

feel like there is a disconnect there.

00:03:13--> 00:03:14

Or I feel like I'm coming from the

00:03:14--> 00:03:15

moon or something?

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

No. Seriously, how long do I still have?

00:03:19--> 00:03:22

4:30 minutes. So imagine in 45 minutes we

00:03:22--> 00:03:24

have to explain Surat Al Baqarah

00:03:26--> 00:03:28

to be able to understand the last two

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

verses

00:03:29--> 00:03:31

And we're gonna attempt to do that.

00:03:31--> 00:03:33

And I promise you I'll finish on time.

00:03:34--> 00:03:36

But with one promise that you hold the

00:03:36--> 00:03:37

Quran.

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

You know, if you're gonna spend the time

00:03:39--> 00:03:41

here anyways, unless your mom,

00:03:41--> 00:03:43

you know, force you to be here or

00:03:43--> 00:03:44

your wife,

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

whoever.

00:03:46--> 00:03:48

But if you're gonna stay here, just have

00:03:48--> 00:03:50

a Quran in a language that you can

00:03:50--> 00:03:50

understand.

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

So meaning the meanings in the language that

00:03:54--> 00:03:56

you understand. Of course, the Quran is harabi.

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

Right?

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

We're good? Everybody has a Quran?

00:04:08--> 00:04:09

You don't have a Quran, do you? Where's

00:04:09--> 00:04:10

your Quran?

00:04:11--> 00:04:13

Come on, find a Quran, young man.

00:04:14--> 00:04:15

Get a Quran, come on. You can do

00:04:15--> 00:04:17

that. Where's your Quran?

00:04:18--> 00:04:20

Nah, your old Quran, Come on. You're a

00:04:20--> 00:04:21

big Sheikh. Come on.

00:04:22--> 00:04:23

Find the Quran.

00:04:24--> 00:04:25

Connect with the Quran, guys.

00:04:26--> 00:04:28

This is the the book of Allah.

00:04:29--> 00:04:31

Imagine this is one of the attributes of

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

Allah we have at hand.

00:04:34--> 00:04:37

Sifatul Kalam, the attribute of speech.

00:04:38--> 00:04:39

Here.

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

Right

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

here.

00:04:42--> 00:04:44

The first question I wanna ask you

00:04:54--> 00:04:56

What is the difference? Just for me to

00:04:56--> 00:04:57

know the level we're dealing with. What is

00:04:57--> 00:04:58

the difference between

00:04:59--> 00:05:02

a Madani and a and what the decides

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

that? Yes.

00:05:08--> 00:05:10

So anything that is revealed in

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

Madinah

00:05:11--> 00:05:14

is Madani and anything that is revealed in

00:05:14--> 00:05:15

Mecca

00:05:15--> 00:05:16

is Makki.

00:05:17--> 00:05:18

Right?

00:05:18--> 00:05:19

Is that what you're

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

saying, Taeib?

00:05:21--> 00:05:22

Anyone do you guys agree to this?

00:05:27--> 00:05:30

Okay. That's the line because there are a

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

lot of Quran that was revealed like aliyahu

00:05:32--> 00:05:35

ma'atmatul raqum deenakum insulatul Ma'idah which is Madani

00:05:36--> 00:05:37

but it was revealed where?

00:05:38--> 00:05:39

In Mecca.

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

So

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

really the line that divides the 2 is

00:05:43--> 00:05:44

is

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

a hijrah.

00:05:47--> 00:05:50

Anything that was revealed before hijrah is considered

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

to be,

00:05:51--> 00:05:54

and anything that is revealed after hijrah is

00:05:54--> 00:05:56

considered to be Madani. So Surat Al Baqarah

00:05:56--> 00:05:57

is Madani.

00:06:01--> 00:06:02

Here's another question.

00:06:03--> 00:06:05

Is the order of the most half

00:06:10--> 00:06:11

The order of the Suras.

00:06:13--> 00:06:14

We know

00:06:15--> 00:06:17

the first chapter revealed in the Quran was

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

what?

00:06:20--> 00:06:22

Surat Iqra. You know what number in the

00:06:22--> 00:06:23

Mus'af?

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

96.

00:06:27--> 00:06:29

So obviously the Quran is not in the

00:06:29--> 00:06:30

order

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

of its descendants. You agree?

00:06:34--> 00:06:35

Right?

00:06:35--> 00:06:37

Now the question I'm asking you is this

00:06:37--> 00:06:38

order that we have,

00:06:41--> 00:06:43

do you know the difference between the two?

00:06:43--> 00:06:44

What is tawkifi?

00:06:46--> 00:06:47

That Allah instructed

00:06:48--> 00:06:48

the prophet

00:06:49--> 00:06:51

to put that order

00:06:51--> 00:06:52

or

00:06:52--> 00:06:54

the companions after

00:06:54--> 00:06:57

the prophet passed away, they made that order.

00:06:57--> 00:06:58

Which one?

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

It's Tawkeefi.

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

Logically,

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

psychologically,

00:07:11--> 00:07:13

all type. Although, I wanna tell you that

00:07:13--> 00:07:16

there are some scholars who actually believe it

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

is Tawkeefi.

00:07:17--> 00:07:20

There are actually scholars but the majority,

00:07:20--> 00:07:22

they say it's still because if it was

00:07:22--> 00:07:23

a stihade,

00:07:23--> 00:07:25

if it was left to the Sahaba to

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

decide,

00:07:26--> 00:07:28

obviously, we're gonna we would have different Masahid

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

with different order. Right?

00:07:30--> 00:07:33

Do you agree? Because the Sahaba would differ

00:07:33--> 00:07:35

in something like that because there is a

00:07:35--> 00:07:36

ground to differ.

00:07:36--> 00:07:39

But have you ever asked yourself

00:07:40--> 00:07:41

why Allah

00:07:42--> 00:07:44

chose Surah Al Baqarah to come at the

00:07:44--> 00:07:45

beginning of the Mus'af?

00:07:47--> 00:07:48

Have you ever asked that question?

00:07:50--> 00:07:51

Why Baqarah?

00:07:52--> 00:07:55

Obviously, Fatih makes because the entire Quran explains

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

in Fatih. How in Fatih is the opener?

00:07:58--> 00:08:00

But while in the first

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

chapter in the most Allah, it's madani.

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

Why?

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

Because Surat Al Baqarah

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

gives every Muslim

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

ID.

00:08:15--> 00:08:16

That's your ID.

00:08:18--> 00:08:19

Your identification.

00:08:20--> 00:08:21

Who you are.

00:08:24--> 00:08:26

Surah Al Baqarah has 286

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

verses.

00:08:31--> 00:08:33

What is the middle number of 286?

00:08:37--> 00:08:38

What?

00:08:40--> 00:08:40

1 what?

00:08:41--> 00:08:43

He has a, like, answer like, you're afraid

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

I'm gonna beat you up or something. Make

00:08:45--> 00:08:47

him sit, it's okay. You know? 1 what?

00:08:49--> 00:08:50

143.

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

143. Okay. That's the, British accent.

00:08:53--> 00:08:53

143.

00:08:54--> 00:08:56

That's the American way. Okay. Here you go.

00:08:56--> 00:08:58

But can you look and see what this

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

verse says?

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

That's your ID.

00:09:13--> 00:09:15

That's did you find it yet?

00:09:16--> 00:09:17

Not yet?

00:09:17--> 00:09:18

143?

00:09:20--> 00:09:23

You didn't find it yet? Yes. Can someone

00:09:23--> 00:09:24

read it for me?

00:09:41--> 00:09:42

That is your identity.

00:09:45--> 00:09:46

You're a witness over mankind.

00:09:51--> 00:09:52

Why?

00:09:53--> 00:09:55

Obviously, your messenger

00:09:55--> 00:09:56

is the last messenger.

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

There there will be no messenger after Rasulullah

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

Rasulahi.

00:10:03--> 00:10:04

Right?

00:10:05--> 00:10:08

And your Quran, your revelation is the final

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

revelation.

00:10:12--> 00:10:13

So logically,

00:10:14--> 00:10:16

who will convey Islam to the rest of

00:10:16--> 00:10:17

the world?

00:10:19--> 00:10:21

Mahdul A Prophet did his mission.

00:10:23--> 00:10:24

It's you and me.

00:10:28--> 00:10:29

In the farewell,

00:10:30--> 00:10:31

sermon,

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

Rasoolullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam Fil Hadid,

00:10:34--> 00:10:37

when he addressed his companions he said, a

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

yohannas,

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

all Muslims,

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

be informed that there will be no prophet

00:10:43--> 00:10:44

after me,

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

No book after me.

00:10:50--> 00:10:53

One day, you will be asked about me.

00:10:54--> 00:10:55

What will you say?

00:10:57--> 00:10:58

And then towards the end,

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

he said

00:11:01--> 00:11:01

now

00:11:03--> 00:11:04

it's your rule,

00:11:04--> 00:11:06

your job to convey.

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

Imagine the companions of the prophet

00:11:12--> 00:11:14

They took this command so seriously.

00:11:15--> 00:11:16

Imagine that.

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

They dispersed in Earth.

00:11:20--> 00:11:24

Within 12 years, Islam went to Turkey to

00:11:24--> 00:11:25

Zribijak to

00:11:27--> 00:11:30

Georgia collapsed. The Byzantine threatened.

00:11:33--> 00:11:34

But things, what,

00:11:36--> 00:11:37

Died out again.

00:11:38--> 00:11:41

That is why Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is

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

reminding you

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

of

00:11:44--> 00:11:45

your mission.

00:11:48--> 00:11:50

Now we need the Quran to figure out

00:11:50--> 00:11:51

who we are

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

and what what we're supposed to do in

00:11:53--> 00:11:56

this world. That's exactly I'm not telling you

00:11:56--> 00:11:57

I have chosen you

00:11:58--> 00:12:01

to convey my message after me.

00:12:01--> 00:12:03

Why did Allah say

00:12:06--> 00:12:10

Why? Because the only Ummah that Allah entrusted

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

the followers of their messenger

00:12:13--> 00:12:14

to convey the messenger after him.

00:12:18--> 00:12:21

This is why Al Baqarah was put

00:12:21--> 00:12:22

at the very,

00:12:23--> 00:12:25

front of the most have.

00:12:26--> 00:12:30

Now Al Baqarah is is very interesting because

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

it it

00:12:33--> 00:12:34

it talks about

00:12:35--> 00:12:36

the qualities

00:12:36--> 00:12:38

which you must have to witness.

00:12:40--> 00:12:42

And by the way, the witnessing

00:12:42--> 00:12:44

not only in this world

00:12:46--> 00:12:47

but in the hereafter too.

00:12:49--> 00:12:51

In the hereafter we know

00:12:52--> 00:12:54

in explaining that verse in Imam al Bukhari,

00:12:54--> 00:12:55

Rahimahullah

00:12:55--> 00:12:58

compiled hadith abi Saeed al Khudri radiAllahu anhu

00:12:59--> 00:13:01

that on the day of judgment Allah subhanahu

00:13:01--> 00:13:03

wa ta'ala would call upon the people of

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

Nuh and

00:13:04--> 00:13:06

he will ask them did Nuh convey a

00:13:06--> 00:13:08

message to you? They will say no.

00:13:08--> 00:13:09

Never.

00:13:10--> 00:13:11

They will actually deny

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

that they received, a messenger.

00:13:14--> 00:13:17

So Allah will ask prophet Noah, did you

00:13:17--> 00:13:18

Yes. I did.

00:13:21--> 00:13:23

Who can bear witness that you did that?

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

Muhammad

00:13:26--> 00:13:27

Muhammad and his own.

00:13:27--> 00:13:30

Imagine the land of gathering prophet Nuh will

00:13:30--> 00:13:32

actually ask you to come to his

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

help.

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

Allah will call upon us. Did

00:13:37--> 00:13:39

Noah convey the message? Yes. He did.

00:13:40--> 00:13:41

Ma'al Mukum, how did you learn Quran and

00:13:41--> 00:13:44

Quran? We started the Quran. It was mentioned

00:13:44--> 00:13:44

in the Quran.

00:13:47--> 00:13:49

This is the witnessing in the lakra.

00:13:50--> 00:13:53

In the dunya, how do you witness?

00:13:53--> 00:13:55

I'm sure you guys have the Jehovah's Witness

00:13:55--> 00:13:57

here. We have them in America. Very nicely

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

dressed people and they come and,

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

you know.

00:14:01--> 00:14:03

You know, this is exactly your job. Exactly.

00:14:03--> 00:14:05

They are actually doing what Muslims should be

00:14:05--> 00:14:07

do doing, but actually our witnessing is a

00:14:07--> 00:14:09

little bit different. There's not knocking on doors

00:14:09--> 00:14:10

or something. No.

00:14:11--> 00:14:13

Our witnessing by embodying Quran,

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

embodying the religion,

00:14:18--> 00:14:19

living the religion.

00:14:21--> 00:14:22

Mahwah

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

one of the

00:14:25--> 00:14:28

predecessors, Hisham, asked Aisha about the character of

00:14:28--> 00:14:30

the prophet. What did she say?

00:14:31--> 00:14:33

I wouldn't use that talk in Quran thing

00:14:33--> 00:14:34

because that's, you know, supported,

00:14:36--> 00:14:37

that the Quran has created.

00:14:38--> 00:14:39

The embodiment of the Quran.

00:14:42--> 00:14:43

He was what? Did you read the Quran?

00:14:43--> 00:14:46

He was the Quran. Illustration of the Quran

00:14:47--> 00:14:49

in his character. The way he speaks. The

00:14:49--> 00:14:51

way he talks. That's how we witness.

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

Of course,

00:14:56--> 00:14:57

Abu Al Aula had,

00:14:57--> 00:15:00

Maudud, if you're familiar with him, had a

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

very interesting writing on this matter. He said

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

there are 3 ways that we witness.

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

Kalima,

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

through the Kalima which is dawah.

00:15:08--> 00:15:10

Like some brother would go out like Sheikh

00:15:10--> 00:15:12

Othman, if you're from an Abu Dhabi, he'll

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

go on the street and what

00:15:13--> 00:15:16

put his dawah booth there and

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

this is one

00:15:18--> 00:15:19

action

00:15:20--> 00:15:23

that you actually act your character.

00:15:24--> 00:15:25

You know, you

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

you don't you don't lie. You don't cheat.

00:15:29--> 00:15:32

You don't backbite. You pray 5 times a

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

day wherever you are. You live you live

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

Islam.

00:15:35--> 00:15:36

But here is the the governance

00:15:37--> 00:15:39

one which is the the top form which

00:15:39--> 00:15:41

is the Khalifa. That you establish the Khalifa

00:15:41--> 00:15:42

to actually,

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

witness with a with

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

with an entity, with a political entity.

00:15:49--> 00:15:51

But that's how we witness. But we don't

00:15:51--> 00:15:52

go and knock on doors. We don't do

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

that.

00:15:54--> 00:15:55

I mean, if if you wanna do it,

00:15:55--> 00:15:58

you can do it. But, no. That's the

00:15:58--> 00:16:00

the way that you do it, that when

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

people see you,

00:16:01--> 00:16:02

they see Islam.

00:16:05--> 00:16:07

And you can tell why,

00:16:07--> 00:16:10

you know, we're because we're not doing that,

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

unfortunately.

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

We're not doing that.

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

So this is the witnessing.

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

Now,

00:16:20--> 00:16:21

for you to witness

00:16:22--> 00:16:24

whether in in in in kanima,

00:16:25--> 00:16:27

in action or in governance,

00:16:28--> 00:16:30

the individuals must have 2 qualities,

00:16:32--> 00:16:33

2 attributes

00:16:35--> 00:16:36

when it comes to the revelation.

00:16:39--> 00:16:40

I came up

00:16:40--> 00:16:41

with an abstract

00:16:42--> 00:16:42

of,

00:16:43--> 00:16:44

a small

00:16:47--> 00:16:49

Look at this. The

00:16:50--> 00:16:51

revelation.

00:16:53--> 00:16:55

If you look at the revelation and examine

00:16:55--> 00:16:55

it,

00:16:59--> 00:17:00

you will find

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

it categorized

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

into

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

matters of unseen.

00:17:07--> 00:17:09

Allah is telling us things that we cannot

00:17:10--> 00:17:10

verify

00:17:11--> 00:17:12

with our senses.

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

Like,

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

we don't see Allah, do we?

00:17:18--> 00:17:19

Right? Angels.

00:17:21--> 00:17:22

They have judgment.

00:17:24--> 00:17:25

Allah is telling us about the people of

00:17:25--> 00:17:27

Nuw, the people of Ad, the people of

00:17:27--> 00:17:28

Samud. Have you seen those?

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

Right.

00:17:31--> 00:17:33

So this what we call what? Unseen. We

00:17:33--> 00:17:34

call this what?

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

Unseen.

00:17:36--> 00:17:38

So this is the first part of the

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

revelation.

00:17:40--> 00:17:42

The second is the commands.

00:17:44--> 00:17:45

Do this. Do not do that.

00:17:46--> 00:17:47

Do and don't.

00:17:49--> 00:17:50

Now for you to

00:17:51--> 00:17:51

witness

00:17:52--> 00:17:53

effectively,

00:17:55--> 00:17:56

you must

00:18:01--> 00:18:02

have towards

00:18:03--> 00:18:04

the unseen

00:18:05--> 00:18:06

and towards

00:18:06--> 00:18:07

the commands.

00:18:09--> 00:18:12

You must believe without any shadow of doubt,

00:18:12--> 00:18:15

any unseen. Allah told you in the Quran.

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

They don't question it.

00:18:19--> 00:18:21

Even if it doesn't make sense to

00:18:29--> 00:18:30

Like I I tell you,

00:18:32--> 00:18:33

last night,

00:18:34--> 00:18:36

you know, I'm staying in the Holiday Inn

00:18:36--> 00:18:37

Express.

00:18:39--> 00:18:40

So by all of a sudden, I'm in

00:18:40--> 00:18:41

the top level.

00:18:42--> 00:18:45

SubhanAllah. By all of a sudden, the, the

00:18:45--> 00:18:46

ceiling opened.

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

And the rocket came down,

00:18:50--> 00:18:51

and I went to the moon and I

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

came back.

00:18:54--> 00:18:55

Why are you laughing?

00:19:01--> 00:19:02

What?

00:19:03--> 00:19:05

You don't believe me, do you?

00:19:07--> 00:19:09

You know, this is how it exactly

00:19:09--> 00:19:11

sounded in Mecca when the prophet

00:19:12--> 00:19:13

woke up one day, and he said, I

00:19:13--> 00:19:15

went to Jerusalem. I came

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

back. Exactly.

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

Right?

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

The logical. Right?

00:19:25--> 00:19:27

That's why the these believers, they said what?

00:19:27--> 00:19:29

We beat the necks of camels 40 days

00:19:29--> 00:19:30

to get there.

00:19:31--> 00:19:33

And he went yeah. By the way, he

00:19:33--> 00:19:35

didn't tell them about the, he just told

00:19:35--> 00:19:36

them about what

00:19:37--> 00:19:38

he didn't tell them the issue.

00:19:39--> 00:19:40

Like, told them the.

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

Some of you actually may

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

hear this for the first time that some

00:19:48--> 00:19:50

Muslims actually left Islam because of this.

00:19:51--> 00:19:53

Because for them was what?

00:19:55--> 00:19:57

But when they went to Abu Bakr, Sadiq,

00:19:57--> 00:19:59

right here. I I just wanna convey that

00:19:59--> 00:20:00

concept of

00:20:01--> 00:20:03

in a in a nutshell here. We can

00:20:03--> 00:20:05

talk about it in in abundance.

00:20:06--> 00:20:08

They told him what? Your friend what?

00:20:10--> 00:20:11

What did he say?

00:20:12--> 00:20:13

What did Abu Bakr say?

00:20:15--> 00:20:17

What was his only reservation?

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

Okay. Did he say that?

00:20:23--> 00:20:24

That's all.

00:20:25--> 00:20:27

Did Allah say that? Did the messenger say

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

that?

00:20:29--> 00:20:31

Alas. I believe it.

00:20:32--> 00:20:34

I know that the he's the all knower.

00:20:36--> 00:20:37

Right? His knowledge.

00:20:38--> 00:20:41

So why would I question something like that?

00:20:43--> 00:20:44

By

00:20:44--> 00:20:45

the commands,

00:20:47--> 00:20:49

you raise your hand. You say what? We

00:20:49--> 00:20:50

hear and

00:20:51--> 00:20:55

we wait. And subhanahu wa'alaikum, the entire surah

00:20:55--> 00:20:57

was named after the story of the compliance.

00:20:59--> 00:21:01

Although if you look at Surah Al Baqarah,

00:21:01--> 00:21:03

there are something like 7

00:21:03--> 00:21:05

out of this world stories.

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

Ibrahim and the birds. Ibrahim and in Namrut.

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

What else out there? Azair?

00:21:17--> 00:21:19

There is one more I forgot here.

00:21:19--> 00:21:22

But why the Surah was named after Al

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

Baqarah? Because it serves that purpose.

00:21:25--> 00:21:27

If some of you are not familiar with

00:21:27--> 00:21:28

the story of Al Baqarah, it's Israel yet.

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

We don't believe it. We don't believe it.

00:21:30--> 00:21:32

But the story reads that,

00:21:33--> 00:21:35

some guy killed his uncle

00:21:36--> 00:21:39

and he dragged his body to

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

some other

00:21:42--> 00:21:43

soups.

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

When Bani Israel were living in the desert,

00:21:45--> 00:21:47

they were divided into 12

00:21:47--> 00:21:48

tribes.

00:21:48--> 00:21:49

So in the morning,

00:21:51--> 00:21:53

they accused this tribe of of of murder.

00:21:55--> 00:21:57

They said, no. We never killed the guy.

00:21:57--> 00:21:59

We never we don't know anything about him.

00:21:59--> 00:22:00

So they started quarreling.

00:22:02--> 00:22:03

So they said to,

00:22:04--> 00:22:07

you know, they started fighting. Then they said,

00:22:07--> 00:22:08

why do we fight when we have someone

00:22:08--> 00:22:10

who can speak to Allah amongst us?

00:22:12--> 00:22:13

Someone who can actually

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

solve that

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

crime,

00:22:17--> 00:22:19

the mystery. So they went to Musa alaihis

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

salam.

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

Musa made dua

00:22:24--> 00:22:25

then you told them what

00:22:25--> 00:22:27

Allah has commanding you to do what?

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

Allah

00:22:35--> 00:22:37

is commanding you to slaughter a cow.

00:22:39--> 00:22:40

I think quite frankly,

00:22:42--> 00:22:43

I for the sake of

00:22:44--> 00:22:47

what is the relationship between figuring out a

00:22:47--> 00:22:48

murderer

00:22:49--> 00:22:52

and slaughtering a cow? Logically doesn't what?

00:22:55--> 00:22:56

It doesn't click

00:22:57--> 00:22:59

but you don't do it with Allah.

00:22:59--> 00:23:01

With Allah it's gonna click somehow.

00:23:03--> 00:23:05

With the commands you're supposed to say what?

00:23:05--> 00:23:06

I hear and what?

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

I hear and what?

00:23:10--> 00:23:11

I hear and

00:23:11--> 00:23:12

what? Obey.

00:23:17--> 00:23:19

Don't find look at many Israel what they

00:23:19--> 00:23:20

did.

00:23:20--> 00:23:22

Which color? What cow?

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

That's many Muslims do this now.

00:23:26--> 00:23:28

Is hijab in the Quran? Yeah. It is

00:23:28--> 00:23:29

in the Quran, sister.

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

It's

00:23:36--> 00:23:37

but but but

00:23:41--> 00:23:43

for the 2 qualities

00:23:45--> 00:23:46

that you must have

00:23:47--> 00:23:48

to witness are what?

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

Tazdik and

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

tatbirq.

00:23:56--> 00:23:58

Compliance. You can say them in English. Attestation

00:23:58--> 00:23:59

and compliance.

00:24:01--> 00:24:02

Amazing at the beginning of Surah Al Baqarah.

00:24:02--> 00:24:05

Now we're gonna explain from 1 until 21.

00:24:06--> 00:24:09

Allah started the chapter with categorizing mankind into

00:24:09--> 00:24:10

3 types.

00:24:12--> 00:24:13

The type who will witness,

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

the kuffar and al munafiqul.

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

3 thighs.

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

And Allah mentioned the 2 qualities

00:24:26--> 00:24:27

that you must have

00:24:28--> 00:24:31

in order to be be full into what?

00:24:31--> 00:24:32

The category who will witness.

00:24:33--> 00:24:35

Look at this. 5 verses. The first 5

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

years.

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

Look at the first quality. What's

00:24:57--> 00:24:58

Then

00:24:59--> 00:25:00

the

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

in 2 verses.

00:25:06--> 00:25:07

Then the hypocrites,

00:25:08--> 00:25:09

11.

00:25:10--> 00:25:12

Because we need to be able to identify

00:25:12--> 00:25:13

them.

00:25:15--> 00:25:16

And then comes in the first call in

00:25:16--> 00:25:17

the Quran, Yeah, Youhanas,

00:25:20--> 00:25:21

which is verse 21.

00:25:22--> 00:25:24

I really want you to witness for me.

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

Yeah.

00:25:27--> 00:25:28

No.

00:25:29--> 00:25:31

So I really want you to witness for

00:25:31--> 00:25:32

me.

00:25:34--> 00:25:36

So the only way for you to do

00:25:36--> 00:25:39

this is if you engage into the actions

00:25:40--> 00:25:41

of the first category.

00:25:46--> 00:25:48

Amazing Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

00:25:49--> 00:25:51

until verse 143

00:25:51--> 00:25:53

will present to us

00:25:54--> 00:25:55

3

00:25:55--> 00:25:56

models.

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

The first is experimental.

00:26:06--> 00:26:08

The story of Adam and Satan.

00:26:12--> 00:26:13

The second is cautionary,

00:26:16--> 00:26:17

the story of many Israel.

00:26:20--> 00:26:21

And the third is exemplary.

00:26:24--> 00:26:25

Ibrahim and his family.

00:26:29--> 00:26:31

That's all until 1 verse 143.

00:26:34--> 00:26:36

Allah wanna show you how the test is.

00:26:38--> 00:26:40

That is why the story of Adam is

00:26:40--> 00:26:41

presented.

00:26:44--> 00:26:45

In that story,

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

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is telling you that

00:26:48--> 00:26:51

there is an enemy out there who would

00:26:51--> 00:26:53

make sure that you

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

feel witnessing.

00:26:57--> 00:26:59

He's gonna be after you.

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

And this is his tricks, his trickery.

00:27:04--> 00:27:06

And what should you do if you

00:27:06--> 00:27:07

fail?

00:27:09--> 00:27:10

For the story of

00:27:11--> 00:27:12

Adam and Satan really

00:27:13--> 00:27:15

was placed in the muzhaf

00:27:15--> 00:27:16

as an experiment.

00:27:18--> 00:27:19

And,

00:27:21--> 00:27:22

there are evidence

00:27:23--> 00:27:24

to validate

00:27:24--> 00:27:25

the claim.

00:27:29--> 00:27:31

One of them is Hadith Abi Hurayira

00:27:38--> 00:27:39

that Musa

00:27:40--> 00:27:43

met Adam alayhis salam, in the night of

00:27:43--> 00:27:44

when

00:27:45--> 00:27:46

the prophet,

00:27:46--> 00:27:49

alayhis salam, led all the messengers in salaam

00:27:49--> 00:27:50

and masjid al Aqsa.

00:27:52--> 00:27:53

Musa

00:27:54--> 00:27:55

approached Adam,

00:27:56--> 00:27:57

and he said to him, you are Adam

00:27:57--> 00:27:59

our father. You're the one who got us

00:27:59--> 00:28:00

out of the

00:28:04--> 00:28:06

garden. So Adam looked at him and he

00:28:06--> 00:28:08

said, you are Musa. The one that Allah

00:28:10--> 00:28:12

tawrah with his with his hands. He said,

00:28:12--> 00:28:14

yes. Didn't you read in the tawrah that

00:28:14--> 00:28:17

this was something that is ordained upon me?

00:28:19--> 00:28:21

Now again, be careful. We don't use the

00:28:21--> 00:28:22

qadr here to justify

00:28:23--> 00:28:25

because Adam repented from the sin.

00:28:26--> 00:28:27

So he may do that.

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

But it is written.

00:28:31--> 00:28:33

Also, another Hadith.

00:28:34--> 00:28:35

Muslim.

00:28:38--> 00:28:40

Hadith The best day the sun ever rose

00:28:40--> 00:28:42

on is which day?

00:28:43--> 00:28:45

Friday. Friday. Why?

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

Why?

00:28:50--> 00:28:52

Adam was created on this day.

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

Adam was admitted

00:28:55--> 00:28:56

into

00:28:57--> 00:28:58

Jannah.

00:28:59--> 00:29:01

Here's the interesting piece and Adam exited Jannah.

00:29:04--> 00:29:06

So what was good in that? Adam exiting

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

Jena.

00:29:08--> 00:29:09

His kids learning

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

the whole

00:29:12--> 00:29:13

cycle of the test.

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

You're you're getting it or no? You understand

00:29:17--> 00:29:18

the essence of it or no?

00:29:19--> 00:29:20

The second

00:29:22--> 00:29:24

that is if you look at the, Moshev

00:29:24--> 00:29:25

here,

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

of course, 30 until

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

39 is the story of Adam.

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

Then comes in the next

00:29:50--> 00:29:51

which

00:29:51--> 00:29:52

verses

00:29:52--> 00:29:53

40

00:29:55--> 00:29:57

all the way, by the way, all the

00:29:57--> 00:29:59

way. Just move up 40

00:30:00--> 00:30:01

until

00:30:05--> 00:30:06

123.

00:30:08--> 00:30:09

This part of

00:30:10--> 00:30:13

this is Bani Israel. Allah is telling you,

00:30:13--> 00:30:14

don't be like them.

00:30:17--> 00:30:19

If you wanna witness,

00:30:20--> 00:30:21

don't be like those people.

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

Don't mimic them.

00:30:29--> 00:30:31

So amazing in the in the most half,

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

the first.

00:30:34--> 00:30:36

Anyone knows what is the first

00:30:37--> 00:30:38

in the most half?

00:30:40--> 00:30:43

I I think 104, 103, or 106 around

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

it.

00:30:44--> 00:30:46

Verse 104, 103,

00:30:47--> 00:30:49

106. Right? What does it say?

00:30:55--> 00:30:56

Let the Let the

00:30:59--> 00:31:01

don't say that word that they used to

00:31:01--> 00:31:01

say.

00:31:02--> 00:31:03

Don't mimic them.

00:31:04--> 00:31:05

Don't be like them.

00:31:07--> 00:31:08

You guys know you're familiar with the story

00:31:08--> 00:31:10

behind ra'ina that they used to say

00:31:11--> 00:31:13

ra'ina in an insulting way to the prophet.

00:31:13--> 00:31:15

Of course, the word it's a haravi word

00:31:15--> 00:31:16

which

00:31:16--> 00:31:18

basically when you wanna tell somebody,

00:31:18--> 00:31:20

like be mindful of me, you tell him

00:31:20--> 00:31:21

ra'aina.

00:31:21--> 00:31:23

But when you twist the words

00:31:23--> 00:31:24

which means arrogance.

00:31:25--> 00:31:26

So it can be insulting.

00:31:27--> 00:31:29

Exactly like when, they would pass by the

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

prophetess of salam and they say

00:31:34--> 00:31:35

And it sounds like what?

00:31:36--> 00:31:38

But instead of saying they say what?

00:31:39--> 00:31:40

What is the difference between?

00:31:42--> 00:31:43

Peace and death.

00:31:44--> 00:31:45

Right?

00:31:45--> 00:31:47

That's why Aisha would

00:31:48--> 00:31:49

get very upset

00:31:49--> 00:31:51

and she would run after them,

00:31:51--> 00:31:54

you know, cursing them and the prophet Aisha

00:31:54--> 00:31:56

just, you know, chill. Just leave them alone,

00:31:56--> 00:31:57

you know.

00:32:03--> 00:32:05

Why why why don't be like them, by

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

the way?

00:32:06--> 00:32:09

Because they failed in in in all aspects.

00:32:09--> 00:32:10

But be careful.

00:32:11--> 00:32:12

Be careful.

00:32:14--> 00:32:15

Not all of them.

00:32:17--> 00:32:20

That is why Ikhwah sometimes amongst these verses

00:32:21--> 00:32:23

you will find Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala actually

00:32:23--> 00:32:24

making an exception.

00:32:26--> 00:32:28

Like the famous verse which some of the

00:32:28--> 00:32:31

progressive Muslims used to validate that, you know,

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

Jews and Christians are gonna go to Jannah

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

like us and

00:32:35--> 00:32:38

which verse 62. Right? Look at verse 62.

00:32:38--> 00:32:40

A famous verse that people use,

00:32:41--> 00:32:43

the progressive people. You know, the people who

00:32:43--> 00:32:45

really are not grounded in the knowledge of

00:32:45--> 00:32:46

Aqid and Islam,

00:32:47--> 00:32:48

they would use.

00:32:56--> 00:32:58

You see, those are exception from what?

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

From those people Allah is talking about.

00:33:05--> 00:33:06

You guys getting it or no?

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

So

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

It's like Allah is is telling you those

00:33:10--> 00:33:12

guys are bad, bad, bad, bad. Look, there

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

are some of those.

00:33:14--> 00:33:15

They are not all like that.

00:33:16--> 00:33:18

And I will reward those.

00:33:20--> 00:33:22

Now the problem with Muslims is what? They

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

extend that beyond what? To our time.

00:33:27--> 00:33:29

You have to contextualize it. You have to

00:33:29--> 00:33:31

keep it in context. Historical context.

00:33:32--> 00:33:34

Likewise, by the way, in fairness also, when

00:33:34--> 00:33:35

Allah tells us about,

00:33:36--> 00:33:37

oh, be mean to them.

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

Don't take them for friends. Don't

00:33:41--> 00:33:42

likewise,

00:33:42--> 00:33:44

this has to be given a context.

00:33:44--> 00:33:45

Not everybody,

00:33:46--> 00:33:48

but those who are hostile to you. Those

00:33:48--> 00:33:50

who are back to you. But the others,

00:33:50--> 00:33:52

you're supposed to be what? I mean, how

00:33:52--> 00:33:53

are you gonna give them? What if you're

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

gonna do?

00:33:56--> 00:33:58

Do? You have to what? Also, give it

00:33:58--> 00:33:59

a context. You're

00:34:00--> 00:34:01

getting the point or no?

00:34:04--> 00:34:05

Take for example,

00:34:07--> 00:34:09

we're supposed to believe without seeing Allah.

00:34:12--> 00:34:14

What did they say to Musa?

00:34:21--> 00:34:23

They wanna see Allah to believe.

00:34:27--> 00:34:28

No. No. No. They killed the prophets. They

00:34:28--> 00:34:29

killed the messengers.

00:34:30--> 00:34:31

They messed up the books.

00:34:33--> 00:34:35

So don't be like them. Again, the because

00:34:35--> 00:34:36

of the time,

00:34:36--> 00:34:37

you know,

00:34:38--> 00:34:39

I have a book by the way called

00:34:39--> 00:34:40

Roadmap.

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

It's available on my website for free. You

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

can PDF

00:34:44--> 00:34:45

it for free. You can buy it from

00:34:45--> 00:34:46

Amazon if you want.

00:34:47--> 00:34:48

But, all of this is there,

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

the road I called it road map to

00:34:51--> 00:34:52

Al Baqarah Al Imran.

00:34:53--> 00:34:54

I was actually in Birmingham,

00:34:54--> 00:34:56

doing Green Lane Masjid.

00:34:57--> 00:34:58

I did this in a weekend

00:34:58--> 00:35:01

workshop for the people there. They enjoyed it.

00:35:01--> 00:35:03

The book is there, PDF, in my website.

00:35:03--> 00:35:05

Maybe the brothers can share the

00:35:06--> 00:35:07

the link with you.

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

Look look at the

00:35:13--> 00:35:15

third one which is what? Ebrahima

00:35:16--> 00:35:17

124.

00:35:17--> 00:35:18

Exemplary.

00:35:21--> 00:35:22

The least I can tell you that many

00:35:22--> 00:35:24

Israel were asked to slaughter a cow.

00:35:26--> 00:35:27

They were reluctant.

00:35:28--> 00:35:30

Ibrahim was asked to slaughter who?

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

Who? He took about

00:35:38--> 00:35:40

that shows you the caliber of the

00:35:42--> 00:35:44

of the and and amazing, by the way,

00:35:44--> 00:35:45

you'll be surprised

00:35:45--> 00:35:47

to find out that,

00:35:48--> 00:35:51

Ismael Ali Ibrahim alaihis salam was actually commanded

00:35:51--> 00:35:52

through,

00:35:55--> 00:35:55

a mutual

00:35:56--> 00:35:58

form of revelation shared with us which is

00:35:58--> 00:35:59

what

00:36:00--> 00:36:01

we know revelations are what?

00:36:02--> 00:36:03

Is levels that

00:36:04--> 00:36:05

Jibril comes,

00:36:06--> 00:36:08

or Allah would inspire you.

00:36:08--> 00:36:10

But there is a form that is shared

00:36:10--> 00:36:12

between the prophets and the layman. Me and

00:36:12--> 00:36:13

you which is what?

00:36:13--> 00:36:14

Dreams.

00:36:15--> 00:36:17

So, Ibrahim was commanded to slay his son

00:36:17--> 00:36:18

in what?

00:36:19--> 00:36:21

This is the lowest. This is the yeah.

00:36:21--> 00:36:23

I mean, I wouldn't say the lowest, But

00:36:23--> 00:36:25

with the prophets, it's authentic because we know

00:36:25--> 00:36:27

that shayateen don't come to the prophets in

00:36:27--> 00:36:28

their dreams.

00:36:28--> 00:36:31

But, you know, anyone in his mind who

00:36:31--> 00:36:32

loves his son would say, okay. You know

00:36:32--> 00:36:34

what? I'm willing to do it, but I'll

00:36:34--> 00:36:35

wait for another confirmation.

00:36:37--> 00:36:38

He didn't do that.

00:36:38--> 00:36:40

Even her son knew that.

00:36:54--> 00:36:56

We can mess around this.

00:36:58--> 00:36:58

Good?

00:37:00--> 00:37:01

Good enough?

00:37:01--> 00:37:04

Imagine we we explain the free Jews of

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

the Quran.

00:37:06--> 00:37:09

The free Jews are right here. Until 1

00:37:09--> 00:37:09

verse 143.

00:37:11--> 00:37:12

Right?

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

The free Jews.

00:37:16--> 00:37:17

There are 3 types of people in this

00:37:17--> 00:37:18

world.

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

Believers,

00:37:22--> 00:37:23

disbelievers,

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

hypocrites.

00:37:25--> 00:37:26

You have the choice. Which one would you

00:37:26--> 00:37:27

like to be?

00:37:30--> 00:37:31

It's your choice.

00:37:32--> 00:37:33

You wanna witness for me?

00:37:34--> 00:37:36

These are the two qualities that you must

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

have

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

in order to witness.

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

To actualize that witnessing.

00:37:41--> 00:37:43

And the words and the actions

00:37:44--> 00:37:47

leading inshallah to the Khalafa, establishing the Khalafa.

00:37:49--> 00:37:50

Now,

00:37:50--> 00:37:51

learn from history.

00:37:54--> 00:37:56

Who's your enemy? Adam.

00:37:57--> 00:37:59

Don't be like the children of Israel when

00:37:59--> 00:38:02

it comes to these things. Be like Ibrahim.

00:38:03--> 00:38:05

That is why Ikhwa subhanAllah every year Allah

00:38:05--> 00:38:07

Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala takes

00:38:09--> 00:38:12

multitudes of this Umrah to go and just

00:38:12--> 00:38:13

walk through the,

00:38:13--> 00:38:16

footsteps of Ibrahim. Hajj and Umrah, I mean.

00:38:16--> 00:38:18

Hajj al Umrah is all about Ibrahim. To

00:38:20--> 00:38:22

remind you of his sacrifices.

00:38:25--> 00:38:26

Because Quran.

00:38:29--> 00:38:31

He's always presented to us to be the

00:38:31--> 00:38:32

exemplary.

00:38:33--> 00:38:34

Even to our messenger by the way.

00:38:40--> 00:38:41

Ibrahim Hanif.

00:38:45--> 00:38:47

Amazing echo with the,

00:38:48--> 00:38:48

identification

00:38:49--> 00:38:50

verse, the ID verse.

00:38:52--> 00:38:53

What number is the ID verse?

00:38:55--> 00:38:55

143.

00:38:56--> 00:38:57

That's your ID.

00:38:59--> 00:38:59

Subhanallah

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

comes in the change of the Qibla in

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

the same time.

00:39:09--> 00:39:12

Being witnesses, you can't be following other people

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

Even in good things.

00:39:15--> 00:39:16

You have to be what?

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

Distinct.

00:39:20--> 00:39:21

You have to be different.

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

Some of you might not know that that

00:39:26--> 00:39:27

the Muslims

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

used to pray toward Jerusalem until

00:39:30--> 00:39:31

this verse was revealed.

00:39:33--> 00:39:34

Even in Mecca, by the way, they used

00:39:34--> 00:39:35

to pray toward Jerusalem.

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

But in Mecca, it was not an issue

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

because if you take one corner of the

00:39:41--> 00:39:43

Kaaba, you could end

00:39:44--> 00:39:46

up facing both. But in Medina, it became

00:39:46--> 00:39:47

what?

00:39:48--> 00:39:50

Because we couldn't do that in Medina.

00:39:54--> 00:39:56

And for your information, this is one of

00:39:56--> 00:39:57

the reasons

00:39:57--> 00:39:58

which

00:39:58--> 00:39:59

deter

00:40:00--> 00:40:02

Bani Israel, the Jews,

00:40:02--> 00:40:03

from following the prophet.

00:40:04--> 00:40:06

They said he's following our qibla. Why would

00:40:06--> 00:40:08

we he's praying to our qibla.

00:40:11--> 00:40:12

That's why Allah immediately

00:40:13--> 00:40:15

after that verse. No. You have a different

00:40:15--> 00:40:16

kremlin now.

00:40:16--> 00:40:19

That is why he say, akhulush sufaha. That's

00:40:19--> 00:40:20

why they they like this one. Right? They

00:40:20--> 00:40:21

like it

00:40:21--> 00:40:23

Because now they understood

00:40:23--> 00:40:25

that they have to follow him,

00:40:27--> 00:40:28

which they

00:40:28--> 00:40:29

declined anyways.

00:40:33--> 00:40:34

That shows you.

00:40:34--> 00:40:35

Even

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

in when it comes to rituals.

00:40:42--> 00:40:43

The

00:40:44--> 00:40:46

prophet tells you what? Dye your beard. The

00:40:46--> 00:40:47

Jews do not dye their

00:40:50--> 00:40:50

beard.

00:40:51--> 00:40:53

Drain your shoes. They don't they they

00:40:54--> 00:40:56

they don't drain your the shoes.

00:40:58--> 00:40:59

Fasting.

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

Okay. We're gonna fast one day before, one

00:41:02--> 00:41:04

day after. Can be. Can be.

00:41:06--> 00:41:07

He can't be.

00:41:08--> 00:41:09

Look at these guys in.

00:41:10--> 00:41:12

They are building what? Abrahamic.

00:41:16--> 00:41:17

They don't even get it.

00:41:18--> 00:41:19

You can be.

00:41:21--> 00:41:23

Well, that's why and

00:41:23--> 00:41:25

America in particular, they end up doing putting

00:41:25--> 00:41:27

all these and I'm I'm not sure here

00:41:27--> 00:41:29

in, in England they do this or not.

00:41:29--> 00:41:30

They put together these,

00:41:31--> 00:41:33

Masjid, synagogue, and church in one what? In

00:41:33--> 00:41:36

these public areas, in the airports, in the

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

you you have this here too? Yeah. You

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

see, it's a whole thing. Is it for

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

you

00:41:42--> 00:41:43

up? This thing becomes what?

00:41:45--> 00:41:46

No. You can't do that.

00:41:47--> 00:41:49

We tell our community that don't pray. Pray

00:41:49--> 00:41:50

pray out in the street.

00:41:51--> 00:41:52

The prophet said,

00:41:56--> 00:41:58

what? The prophet said, earth is my masjid

00:41:58--> 00:42:00

for me. We know that all of earth

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

is masjid except in hamam,

00:42:05--> 00:42:07

certain areas again, and the graveyards.

00:42:08--> 00:42:10

But you can pray anywhere. You don't have

00:42:10--> 00:42:11

to have a

00:42:12--> 00:42:14

actually, you're supposed to pray anywhere so that

00:42:14--> 00:42:17

remember the action thing, remember the witnessing an

00:42:17--> 00:42:19

action. So they see you praying.

00:42:22--> 00:42:23

That's why the qibla.

00:42:26--> 00:42:27

You have a different direction now.

00:42:30--> 00:42:31

But right away comes in.

00:42:51--> 00:42:52

Allah is telling you what?

00:42:53--> 00:42:54

You're gonna be tested.

00:42:55--> 00:42:56

They're gonna come after you.

00:42:57--> 00:42:58

So in the sub you have to be

00:42:58--> 00:42:59

patient now.

00:43:01--> 00:43:03

That's why these verses comes right after that

00:43:03--> 00:43:05

tablet. Because you're gonna be what? Distinct. You're

00:43:05--> 00:43:06

not gonna be

00:43:08--> 00:43:10

you're not gonna be their follower their follower.

00:43:10--> 00:43:11

You're gonna you're gonna say, no. I'm I'm

00:43:11--> 00:43:12

sorry. I'm different.

00:43:14--> 00:43:16

I I can then you're gonna be tested.

00:43:16--> 00:43:16

So

00:43:19--> 00:43:21

Amazing you will find the Surah all the

00:43:21--> 00:43:23

way until the last three verses which you

00:43:23--> 00:43:24

asked me to explain.

00:43:25--> 00:43:26

How long I still have?

00:43:28--> 00:43:29

Time wise, please.

00:43:31--> 00:43:33

10? Yeah. We're doing good. Imagine

00:43:34--> 00:43:35

the entire,

00:43:37--> 00:43:39

chapter all the way until the last three

00:43:39--> 00:43:39

verses.

00:43:41--> 00:43:42

Now is the curriculum,

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

the guidelines,

00:43:44--> 00:43:45

the blueprint,

00:43:45--> 00:43:46

the scripture.

00:43:48--> 00:43:50

What you're supposed to implement

00:43:51--> 00:43:51

and convey.

00:43:55--> 00:43:58

And all those when you want to encapsulate

00:43:58--> 00:44:00

this and and put this in a,

00:44:02--> 00:44:03

all the commands

00:44:03--> 00:44:05

in the in the in the religion of

00:44:05--> 00:44:07

Islam, whether it is a prophetic command or

00:44:07--> 00:44:08

a Quranic command

00:44:09--> 00:44:10

or prohibition,

00:44:15--> 00:44:16

are geared

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

to protect

00:44:19--> 00:44:20

5 things.

00:44:24--> 00:44:26

To make sure that these 5

00:44:26--> 00:44:27

these 5 things

00:44:28--> 00:44:29

exist.

00:44:30--> 00:44:32

The scholars call them what?

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

The 5

00:44:36--> 00:44:38

necessity. Number 1, the

00:44:39--> 00:44:39

religion.

00:44:41--> 00:44:43

That's why it's salah

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

and Surat Al Baqarah.

00:44:46--> 00:44:47

That's why fasting

00:44:52--> 00:44:52

Isn't

00:44:58--> 00:44:58

Hajj

00:45:03--> 00:45:04

And that's section 2.

00:45:13--> 00:45:13

To

00:45:15--> 00:45:16

The protection of the human

00:45:17--> 00:45:17

life,

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

soul.

00:45:19--> 00:45:21

The sanctity of life. By the way, whether

00:45:21--> 00:45:23

Muslim or a non Muslim.

00:45:37--> 00:45:40

By establishing the flow of retribution,

00:45:40--> 00:45:42

you can save a lot of lives.

00:45:42--> 00:45:44

When when killers would

00:45:45--> 00:45:45

see that

00:45:47--> 00:45:48

there will be a recompense

00:45:49--> 00:45:49

for their

00:45:52--> 00:45:53

transgression, basically.

00:45:56--> 00:45:59

What is what is number 3?

00:46:01--> 00:46:04

The next generation. That's why when you recite

00:46:05--> 00:46:06

all of a sudden you find the Quran

00:46:06--> 00:46:07

going into

00:46:08--> 00:46:09

divorce,

00:46:09--> 00:46:11

marriage, life. Now this has to do with

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

the family.

00:46:14--> 00:46:16

People think that these are verses are just

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

added up brand.

00:46:18--> 00:46:20

No. Allah is telling you we have to

00:46:20--> 00:46:22

protect the next generation. Now I'm gonna talk

00:46:22--> 00:46:23

to you about

00:46:42--> 00:46:44

religion that tells you what to do with

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

your life.

00:46:47--> 00:46:48

Then comes in what?

00:46:51--> 00:46:53

That's why there is a verse

00:46:59--> 00:47:02

then the the the wolf. SubhanAllah. The protection

00:47:02--> 00:47:03

of the wolf.

00:47:04--> 00:47:06

Imagine the longest

00:47:06--> 00:47:08

verse in the Quran is about the protection

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

of the wolf

00:47:10--> 00:47:12

which is Ayatul what? It's called Ayatul what?

00:47:24--> 00:47:25

So for all the commands, you will find

00:47:25--> 00:47:26

all these verses here

00:47:29--> 00:47:31

are building this.

00:47:33--> 00:47:34

How many minutes I still have?

00:47:36--> 00:47:37

7?

00:47:38--> 00:47:39

5. 5.

00:47:40--> 00:47:41

Imagine now

00:47:42--> 00:47:44

now I'm gonna start now now I can

00:47:44--> 00:47:46

explain the last three verses of

00:47:50--> 00:47:52

Jibril alaihi salam comes down to the prophet.

00:47:55--> 00:47:57

And whatever I'm saying is,

00:48:03--> 00:48:04

with this verse

00:48:05--> 00:48:06

284.

00:48:07--> 00:48:08

Look at verse 284.

00:48:10--> 00:48:11

What does it say?

00:48:27--> 00:48:30

Allah is telling you that whether

00:48:33--> 00:48:34

you reveal

00:48:34--> 00:48:37

or conceal what you're thinking about,

00:48:37--> 00:48:38

you're a

00:48:39--> 00:48:40

sinner.

00:48:41--> 00:48:42

You getting the point or no?

00:48:43--> 00:48:45

That when you think about something Haram, it's

00:48:45--> 00:48:47

written as if you did it.

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

Oh, yeah.

00:48:52--> 00:48:54

Well, that's what the verse says.

00:48:57--> 00:48:59

The companions of the prophet, the hadith. I'm

00:48:59--> 00:49:00

I'm calling the hadith. The companions of the

00:49:00--> 00:49:01

prophet

00:49:02--> 00:49:03

came to him

00:49:04--> 00:49:06

kneeling. They went down on their knees.

00:49:07--> 00:49:08

Jahu

00:49:08--> 00:49:09

Alar woke up.

00:49:31--> 00:49:32

But this one?

00:49:36--> 00:49:38

Never in in your mind think that the

00:49:38--> 00:49:40

companions are rejecting.

00:49:40--> 00:49:41

No.

00:49:42--> 00:49:42

Campaign

00:49:43--> 00:49:44

Sahaba, they always,

00:49:47--> 00:49:50

strive to attain excellence in order to send

00:49:51--> 00:49:53

in implementing the command. They they don't settle

00:49:53--> 00:49:54

for what.

00:49:55--> 00:49:56

And quite frankly, this is what?

00:49:58--> 00:49:59

This is a tough one.

00:50:02--> 00:50:04

But look what the prophet said to them.

00:50:05--> 00:50:08

He reminded them of the cautionary tale.

00:50:09--> 00:50:10

He said to them,

00:50:17--> 00:50:19

Are you gonna say

00:50:19--> 00:50:21

like the followers of the 2 books before

00:50:21--> 00:50:23

you? What did they say? What they used

00:50:23--> 00:50:26

to say? And and what? We hear and

00:50:27--> 00:50:28

what?

00:50:29--> 00:50:30

Sorry. I just the scale.

00:50:47--> 00:50:48

You know the the the the word you

00:50:48--> 00:50:49

know

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

what? Slip of a tongue.

00:50:53--> 00:50:54

The tongue what?

00:50:55--> 00:50:57

Slip not from sleeping. The slippery thing is

00:50:57--> 00:50:58

slip.

00:51:08--> 00:51:09

Oh, that tells you that in in their

00:51:09--> 00:51:12

heart, they never had an intention to what?

00:51:14--> 00:51:16

Listen, sometimes somebody comes to you and say,

00:51:16--> 00:51:18

well, you know, I ask you a question.

00:51:19--> 00:51:20

And then when you answer him and you

00:51:20--> 00:51:21

show him the evidence,

00:51:22--> 00:51:23

if he

00:51:24--> 00:51:26

really was seeking the truth, he will say,

00:51:26--> 00:51:27

okay. I'll do it.

00:51:28--> 00:51:30

But if he's not, he's gonna give you

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

another question.

00:51:32--> 00:51:33

No. The companions will do.

00:51:33--> 00:51:34

SubhanAllah

00:51:34--> 00:51:36

as soon as they sit

00:51:37--> 00:51:39

Jibril by the way was sitting next to

00:51:39--> 00:51:40

the prophet

00:51:42--> 00:51:43

This is another hadith.

00:51:46--> 00:51:47

They heard a crack.

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

He said, you Rasoolallah,

00:51:52--> 00:51:55

this is a gate in heaven for the

00:51:55--> 00:51:57

first time to open, and there is an

00:51:57--> 00:51:59

angel who never been given permission to come

00:51:59--> 00:52:01

down to earth before. This is his first

00:52:01--> 00:52:01

time.

00:52:02--> 00:52:04

He brought down the last two verses which

00:52:05--> 00:52:07

we're supposed to explain.

00:52:08--> 00:52:10

Look at this now. That's why I told

00:52:10--> 00:52:12

you the the the last two verses of

00:52:12--> 00:52:13

of Surah Al Baqarah

00:52:14--> 00:52:14

are

00:52:15--> 00:52:18

a summary of the entire surah. Look at

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

this.

00:52:46--> 00:52:47

Old. Came in the abrogation.

00:52:54--> 00:52:57

You're only be you're only gonna be accountable

00:52:57--> 00:52:59

for you what you actually want

00:53:11--> 00:53:12

make this dua, you're gonna get

00:53:35--> 00:53:38

I finished in the 45 minutes, did I?

00:53:38--> 00:53:40

Alas, I am done. I did it.

00:53:40--> 00:53:41

Alas, that's it.

00:53:43--> 00:53:44

By the way, all of this, I have
