I am your host Kareem I was eight and I welcome you to another edition of the virtual right believe series Silsila to LA Kedah Asahi ha the virtual ally believe that series to distinguish it from the right belief series which I presented earlier in a Masjid brothers and sisters in Islam.

00:02:46--> 00:03:21

Today in sha Allah, we have a very noble subject which is the subject of the names and the attributes of Allah subhana wa tada and this is lecture number seven, in the theories, brothers and sisters in Islam. Today, we will be talking about the methodology regarding understanding Allah His names and attributes, the methodology regarding

00:03:22--> 00:03:30

LS ma was the fact the names and the attributes of Allah Subhana who what are

00:03:32--> 00:03:46

we introduced, the subject of the names and the attributes previously, and the significance and the importance of the subject. And last session, if you remember I

00:03:48--> 00:03:52

went with you through history

00:03:54--> 00:04:08

addressing the, how the oma different regarding the subject, how Muslims were influenced by the teachings of the

00:04:09--> 00:04:11

nations who

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

reverted to Islam

00:04:16--> 00:04:23

whether the speculative, the speculative speech element qalam philosophy

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

or the

00:04:28--> 00:04:44

ideology of the nations and they started manipulating and changing the inherited understanding of the names and the attributes of Allah subhanho wa Taala.

00:04:47--> 00:04:50

Brothers and sisters in Islam in sha Allah.

00:04:51--> 00:04:59

When we talk about the names and the attributes today, we're not explaining them and what they mean we're talking about them

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

method

00:05:01--> 00:05:04

to comprehend them to understand them.

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

The way the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and his companions and their students understood them. And I want to let you know if you're giving that port of knowledge

00:05:22--> 00:05:30

It is a good sign that Allah subhana wa Taala has chosen you to understand

00:05:32--> 00:05:37

the proper knowledge related to Allah subhanho wa Taala

00:05:38--> 00:05:42

We ask Allah subhana wa Taala to guide our tongue

00:05:43--> 00:05:46

to explain this subject properly and

00:05:48--> 00:06:03

protect our tongue and our pen and our hearts from error your Balala mean because imagine the mistake in this subject is a big mistake.

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

Not a simple one. Let me first do what I normally do welcome our first

00:06:12--> 00:06:21

brothers and sisters will sign up sign up with us and then we'll start the lecture right away inshallah. But meanwhile, if I can also ask

00:06:22--> 00:06:41

Our sister Tara walakum, salam, O. Allah, He Omar, Kathy, this is so far who we have on the broadcast

00:07:45--> 00:08:00

insha Allah, May Allah send us the rest, maybe they are asleep, and they will wake up in Sharla. But we're ready to go in the night Allah. I know a lot of the brothers watch this later because of the time difference in

00:08:01--> 00:08:04

Europe, the rest of the world in Sharla.

00:08:05--> 00:08:14

But like we say, the knowledge is deep in Sharla. So the methodology regarding Allah His names and attributes.

00:08:16--> 00:08:18

Like we said before, brothers and sisters in Islam,

00:08:19--> 00:08:23

we're trying to follow the footsteps of the Sahaba.

00:08:25--> 00:08:44

And the footsteps of the predecessors in understanding the names and the attributes of Allah subhanho wa Taala. A little introduction here, the subject of the divine attributes and names is one of the greatest requirements of Islam,

00:08:45--> 00:08:49

and one of the most noble of all sciences,

00:08:50--> 00:08:54

and one of the most critical in the minds of people.

00:08:55--> 00:09:16

Great disputes have occurred in the subject, due to what the innovators invented by engaging and delving into allies essence names and attributes without knowledge. And I given you an idea, last lecture of famous

00:09:18--> 00:09:19

names

00:09:20--> 00:09:27

in that field, the people who lead Muslims astray in this area, brothers and sisters in Islam.

00:09:29--> 00:09:55

The names of Allah are all those names that refer to Allah subhanho wa Taala himself and referred to one of his perfect attributes that exists in a loss of Hannah Montana, such as El Cadiz, the old powerful. So the old powerful is a name but it refers to an attribute which which is what might and power

00:09:57--> 00:09:59

might and power. So the name Alex

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

Cuddy's the old powerful, that he fears to an attribute which is input, the mind and the power.

00:10:12--> 00:10:16

The name of allah li li m, the old knowing.

00:10:18--> 00:11:06

Even though the name is Eileen the old knowing, it refers to an attribute of knowledge, the attributes of knowledge, the name of Allah Al Hakim, the most wise refers to an attribute of wisdom and semia. The old hearing refers to the attribute of heating and bazzill. The old seeing refers to vision and seeing these names referred to Allah Subhana, WA tada himself, and his qualities of knowledge, wisdom, hearing and sight. The attributes refers to one thing, which is the attribute itself. So a name of allah indicates two things,

00:11:08--> 00:11:16

the name and the attribute, but the attribute requires a need. Some of you are already confused.

00:11:18--> 00:11:22

Let me take you to another level. If you're asked.

00:11:23--> 00:11:25

Like a student of knowledge,

00:11:26--> 00:11:44

we always say as Matt was the fact the names and the attributes of Allah, here is a question for you. What is the difference? Or what are the differences between the names of Allah and the attributes of Allah?

00:11:45--> 00:12:06

Okay, that's a question. That's the first question we want to answer tonight. We need to know that what do we mean when we say the names? What do we mean when we say the attributes I told you a minute ago that the name of Allah as semia the old hearing that surname as Samia is the old hearing.

00:12:07--> 00:12:11

It refers to an attribute with schoolwork heating.

00:12:13--> 00:12:37

Elbow sees the old seeing, it refers to Allah Himself, and it refers to an attribute of Allah, which is the site, the sight you're getting there? So let's answer the question brothers and sisters in Islam. What is the difference between the names and the attributes of Allah Subhana. Who, what are

00:12:39--> 00:12:42

the first difference brothers and sisters in Islam right here

00:12:44--> 00:12:47

is the name

00:12:50--> 00:13:05

or the names refer to two things refer to the essence to Allah. As semi is Allah, Al bossier is Allah and Nick also rehears to an attribute.

00:13:06--> 00:13:15

So when you say a name, then the name refers to Allah himself the essence of Allah and attributes of Allah.

00:13:16--> 00:13:22

The Baba the attribute, the attribute refers to one thing which is the attribute SMR

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

is busser.

00:13:25--> 00:13:33

And for you, to come up with an attribute, you must have a name, you're getting that

00:13:34--> 00:13:40

you must have a name. So that's the first difference. The first difference.

00:13:41--> 00:14:00

A name refers to Allah Subhana Allah himself and an attribute or maybe attributes one name is Hakeem the old wise requires knowledge to the old wise require,

00:14:01--> 00:14:25

you know, kibra experience, if we may use this, pertaining to Allah subhanho wa Taala. So one name could mean more than one attribute. But for you, to produce an attribute, you must have a name, or Allah tells you this is an attribute. That's the first difference.

00:14:28--> 00:14:54

The attributes refer to one thing which is the attribute itself. So a name of Allah, look at this white color there. A name of allah indicates two things and an attribute indicates only one thing. So it is said a name includes an attribute and an attribute requires any that's the first difference. The second difference, very important.

00:14:55--> 00:14:56

Pay attention to this.

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

You may

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

derive attributes from the names, but not vice versa.

00:15:09--> 00:15:16

And explained no panic. Like a minute ago I said as semia the old heating.

00:15:18--> 00:15:24

What attribute did we derive from the Name of Allah the old hearing?

00:15:25--> 00:15:26

Hearing?

00:15:27--> 00:15:39

Al Hakim, that's the name and Hakeem is the name of Allah. What attribute did we derive derive your initiative, Cox Takotna wisdom, the attribute of wisdom?

00:15:42--> 00:15:49

What attribute did we derive from Embassy's site? The old seer site.

00:15:50--> 00:15:54

But we cannot derive names from attributes.

00:15:57--> 00:16:00

One of the things when we debate with Christian and Jews

00:16:02--> 00:16:10

and if they want to insult a law to make you upset, they tell you listen, I don't like to worship a God who blots

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

a God who deceives

00:16:17--> 00:16:18

if you read the most half

00:16:20--> 00:16:23

well America who? Who I met canon law,

00:16:25--> 00:16:26

they blocked it

00:16:27--> 00:16:28

and a lot blocked it.

00:16:30--> 00:16:33

So now the attribute of blotting

00:16:34--> 00:16:36

is confirmed for Allah.

00:16:38--> 00:16:45

The question, can you call Allah Subhana? wa Taala? The blotter? No, you can't

00:16:46--> 00:16:57

you cannot stop for a lot. So it says upon Allah Subhana Allah. Why, because we do not derive names from the attributes.

00:16:59--> 00:17:01

But this is what we call

00:17:03--> 00:17:16

cific tabela an attribute to facing a confrontational because imagine that created beings they blocked what is blocking What does blocking means? What does blocking means?

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

What does blocking means

00:17:20--> 00:17:39

that we will be happy that you do something in secret that no one knows about it. That's what blotting is. That you scheme you you cook something to your enemy or to somebody that you you're trying to harm without them knowing it. So imagine their blood that created blood, and Allah doesn't know about it. No, I love blood stew, meaning Allah knows what they are doing.

00:17:41--> 00:17:51

Meanwhile, they do not know what Allah is doing. You're getting that so it's a fact of cabinet. It's an attribute to face confront.

00:17:55--> 00:18:01

In Ramona 15, you hardier una la how of la hora de Rue whom,

00:18:02--> 00:18:10

indeed the hypocrites they think, the hypocrites, they deceive Allah and Allah deceives them.

00:18:12--> 00:18:26

Now the people they say Allah is that is it can you say Allah the deceiver? No, you can say that. You cannot say that. Why? Because of that. We cannot derive names for Allah from attributes from actions. We don't do that.

00:18:28--> 00:19:00

You're getting the point. But now does does a lot deceives Yes. Well, what would you say if the hypocrites what is the same? What is deception? What do you mean by deception here, that you try to trick the one in front of you that the hypocrites are tricking a mob Can you say that I suffered a loss yes upon Allah. But that the attribute here is the attribute but the rule that I want you to memorize that I want you to understand that you may derive attribute

00:19:01--> 00:19:03

s attributes from one knee,

00:19:05--> 00:19:07

but you cannot do vice versa. Here it is.

00:19:08--> 00:19:25

We may derive attributes from the names but we cannot derive names from the attribute Say for example, they blood and Allah bloods. The Quran affirms the attribute of blotting to Allah. But we cannot derive the name the blotter from the attribute of flooding.

00:19:27--> 00:19:43

The coming and the descending are attributes of Allah subhanho wa Taala. It was meant mentioned in the Quran, but we cannot derive name from these attributes we cannot call a lot calmer than a descendant. Of course, this differs from the names of Allah,

00:19:44--> 00:19:55

which refers to an attribute by itself. So this is the second difference brothers and sisters in Islam. So what was the first difference? Huh? Come on students what

00:19:56--> 00:19:59

a name refers to two things a law the

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

Is that the Divine Essence of Allah? When I say semi, who's a semi a lot,

00:20:08--> 00:20:51

and it refers to an attribute of Allah as well two things, an attribute reveals by itself stands by itself. But the second difference between the names and the attributes, we may derive attribute attributes from the name, but we cannot do vice versa we cannot derive names from the attributes. Number three Consequently, the attributes are way more than the names, which is bigger now than a the attribute every name has an attribute or more than one attribute. So, the attributes are what many

00:20:52--> 00:21:07

our knowledge of allies attributes is vaster than our knowledge of his names, since each name implies an attribute, but not all the attributes double as any for example, Allah has attributes

00:21:08--> 00:21:37

indicate some of his numerous actions like coming going taking catching using food. We attribute them to Allah because they are mentioned in the Quran and the Sunnah, but they don't have names. But we do not refer to him by names that indicate that like I said, I cannot call Allah The blotter, I cannot call it a common, I cannot call him the descendant because there is no name, you understand, but the attribute is there. That consequently

00:21:38--> 00:21:51

the attributes are way more than the names of Allah subhanaw taala. The last difference brothers and sisters in Islam, when we call upon Allah subhanho wa Taala we use the names

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

will heal as

00:21:59--> 00:22:01

to Allah belongs the most

00:22:02--> 00:22:25

beautiful name so call upon Allah using these names. When you call upon Allah subhanho wa Taala you don't use the attribute by itself, but you call Yeah. semia Yaba sees ya kawi Yeah, Jaime, yeah. Majeed yeah honey. So, when you say yeah,

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

you use a name.

00:22:30--> 00:22:34

But for you to use the attribute, you must use something before it.

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

You cannot use the attribute cannot go on

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

all sides.

00:22:41--> 00:22:42

All seeing

00:22:43--> 00:23:19

always them. You cannot call up an ally using the attribute by itself. But using something with it like Allahumma B. l. Mikkel V, the enemy Canova. What could the erotica erotica Allah halki by like, if you shouldn't say, calling upon Allah subhanaw taala directly. And this is the second difference. The third difference that we have brothers and sisters and stuff. So this is a little warm up here. We differentiated between the names and the attributes.

00:23:20--> 00:23:27

A name refers to Allah, and an attribute. But the attribute refers to

00:23:28--> 00:23:49

something just an attribute. We cannot derive names from the attributes, but we can derive attributes from the names. We call upon Allah straight using the names but for me to call upon Allah using the attribute, I must add something before it. These are the differences brothers and sisters in Islam.

00:23:51--> 00:24:31

Okay, ready to go. Next step. Next step, come on brothers, come on sisters, this is a very beautiful subject will lie. And you may have to watch that more over and over three, four times to grasp it to get it. But if Allah gives it to you, it's beautiful. It's beauty. Again, we're not explaining the names and the attributes. We're not like selecting certain names and explaining No, we're showing you how to understand them, how to comprehend them, because there are people who went astray in this area. And there are people who don't know how to understand them. And there are people who don't care. You understand? And and and but we need brothers and sisters who care. So the second question,

00:24:31--> 00:24:47

so the first question was, what are the differences between the names and the attributes? And we came up with three differences at least three for now, the next question is, what do we mean by tau hadeel as Matt it was c fat.

00:24:49--> 00:24:59

Though Hayden as Matt you're always here to either we don't even know here. What is though ADLs metal ciphers? How can you achieve the heat

00:25:00--> 00:25:05

oneness of Allah, in the area of the names and the attributes Here it is.

00:25:07--> 00:26:05

What is the halal as Matt was saying that to affirm that which Allah has affirmed for himself, or that which his messenger has affirmed for him from the names and the attributes in the most perfect manner without which suits His Majesty and greatness? Lay second cliche, without turning to any thing from the Hadeeth distortion to appeal negation, that Keith asking how Tim feel resemblance Ah, man, this is heavy, heavy duty stuff. I know some of you are gonna leave and go man, this is stuff. But understanding the subject brothers and sisters in Islam is a key is a key to understand the product. Imagine this, let me let me break that definition down for you. And the definition is not

00:26:05--> 00:26:14

done yet. First of all, you need to understand this, no one can talk about a law accept a law and His Messenger

00:26:18--> 00:26:22

wants you to be shy in mean

00:26:28--> 00:26:31

they have no access to his knowledge.

00:26:33--> 00:26:39

Accept that which He wills which is the way that he believes in what he revealed to his message of the Quran and the Sunnah.

00:26:41--> 00:27:02

So that's why I look at the first piece of the definition to affirm that which Allah has affirmed for himself, and that which his messenger has affirmed for him from the names and the attributes to split, man, betta, who love Hulu, enough sci fi horror on E. O Allah and he said in a V t suniti.

00:27:03--> 00:27:16

Alex it I hear, then he hears, I see that he sees Okay, now, you affirm it in the best, the most perfect manner

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

which suits His Majesty,

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

his greatness so can

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

you cannot understand it in a way that is human.

00:27:29--> 00:27:32

Because Allah is above everyone.

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

No one is like him.

00:27:36--> 00:27:39

Lisa Kenneth Lee, he she,

00:27:40--> 00:28:07

while I'm Mia Kula, who Khufu one I had. No one is like him at all. Once it comes to his divine essence. Once it comes to his names, once it comes to his attributes, once it comes to his actions, no one. So you affirm what Allah affirmed for himself in the most perfect manner, which suits his greatness, His Majesty.

00:28:09--> 00:28:14

Don't play with it, without what distortion, you cannot distort it.

00:28:16--> 00:28:25

You cannot change it. That's what distortion is. I'm gonna come to these terms. You're not supposed to figure out how.

00:28:29--> 00:28:30

And the first

00:28:31--> 00:28:34

statement that I want you to memorize today.

00:28:35--> 00:28:40

leja lm ke for law Illa Allah.

00:28:41--> 00:28:45

Only Allah subhana wa Taala knows who Allah is?

00:28:48--> 00:28:51

How does Allah here? How does Allah See?

00:28:53--> 00:29:06

You don't know. We don't know. And don't try, you must cut off all hopes that you can reach the reality and the nature of the attribute of the names of Allah.

00:29:08--> 00:29:13

The What if shaitan comes and plays with your head? And Satan does.

00:29:14--> 00:29:20

Satan does he makes a turn comes and he makes you visualize a lot in a certain way. So the

00:29:21--> 00:29:31

first thing that that you should do, stop the thought, stop the visualization, stop the comprehension and say stop Hannah law.

00:29:32--> 00:29:35

What does what the subpoena law means meaning allies above that

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

could

00:29:38--> 00:29:57

be barely from law who bcls evali. Whatever your brain produces, of how Allah is, his names are His attributes are, say Subhana Allah says upon Allah says upon Allah because Allah is above that Allah is above that

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

Learn to D cool, those are

00:30:05--> 00:30:10

cool. Those are our lovely little hobby.

00:30:11--> 00:30:14

visions, minds cannot comprehend them.

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

So, you affirm without distortion,

00:30:20--> 00:30:42

without resemblance, without the kief. And without that seam, and we're going to come to this. So you affirm. So this is the first half. So without what resemblance asking how, without negation without distortion. Let's use to the second half of the definition which is the white bullet, to negate

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

also

00:30:47--> 00:30:55

that which there is a table here Allah has negated from himself or his messenger negated from him. What do we mean by that?

00:30:57--> 00:31:11

You see, brothers and sisters in Islam. When we affirm an attribute for Allah, we must have an evidence meaning Well, for me to say Allah has a semi I must have a Koran or authentic so not to say that.

00:31:15--> 00:31:22

Why do they say ally semia? Because there is a version shoulder to shoulder which says laser chemically.

00:31:23--> 00:31:38

As semia is the old hearing, that is why I'm telling you Allah is the old hearing because I have any evidence. Likewise, the attention ear, a lot of a lot of you may hear this for the first time. Likewise, if we if you want to negate What does it mean, negate the fee?

00:31:39--> 00:31:48

If you want to dismiss if you want to deny an attribute from Allah, if you want to say Allah is not that you must have an evidence to

00:31:50--> 00:31:51

hot enough.

00:31:52--> 00:31:59

So you negate with evidence, you cannot run your mouth, because somehow somewhat.

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

If you want to insult somebody, you could actually insult somebody in this way. Like, with all due respect here. I have brother Attila from Toronto. And I love you, brother Attila but I want to bring the point across to the brothers here. I see. Okay, blah, blah, blah. Tila doesn't go to the nightclubs. Brother Atilla doesn't smoke marijuana.

00:32:22--> 00:32:28

Brother Attila does it. I'm negating and dismissing work. But in a way I'm insulting. Why are you saying that?

00:32:31--> 00:32:38

What is likewise, you cannot negate an attribute from a law without What? Without an evidence

00:32:40--> 00:32:51

to uptake for example, can I say Allah doesn't sleep? Can I say that? Yes, I can. I can. What is your evidence?

00:32:52--> 00:32:54

Allahu LA, Isla

00:32:58--> 00:33:02

de la hoodoo who seem to

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

lead

00:33:07--> 00:33:22

so negation there is an evidence. Can I say Allah doesn't die? Yes, I can. Some of you might say, Come on. Yes, I can say that. Why? What what colossal high yield levy

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

was a beer beer from the place your trust abunda. One who does not die the ever living or does not die, you're getting that. So the negation the point of

00:33:37--> 00:34:14

that the negation here You must have an evidence from the Quran and the Sunnah. But with a little twist here, look at this year, look at this year, to negate that which Allah has negated from himself or that which his messenger negated from him from the names and the attributes, but along with believing that it's fully perfect opposite is confirmed for Allah the highest. Like if I say Allah doesn't die. I affirm life for Allah in the most perfect manner. And I'll explain that in a minute. But this is just the definition.

00:34:15--> 00:34:44

Obviously, here to achieve the above mentioned definition, we must do three things, affirm, negate and restrain or halt regarding vague terms that we cannot run our mouth. Are you ready to go on? So the first step for you to achieve unification, oneness, that will he learn in the area of the names and the attributes you must affirm,

00:34:45--> 00:35:00

to be to man is better how math is better, who loveliness you affirm, and if Allah said he is that you affirm it, you affirm it, but be careful. There are four things people

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

went astray stay away from them.

00:35:03--> 00:35:18

affirmation of every thing which Allah affirmed for himself in the Quran, or his messenger affirmed for him for Allah in the Sunnah of the Prophet salallahu alaihe salam without avoid these four things.

00:35:20--> 00:35:23

Number one, negation the appeal

00:35:25--> 00:35:28

to distortion to Harry's the red one,

00:35:30--> 00:35:33

distorting their meanings completely or partially.

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

Three without can feel that you seem to be

00:35:41--> 00:35:46

which is saying Ally's face looks like that.

00:35:47--> 00:36:02

This attribute is like that. That key without techies seeking to know the nature or the reality of the attributes. All good. Okay, I'm gonna keep this on the screen for a little bit for you.

00:36:03--> 00:36:09

So your affirm without What? Stay away from negation latacunga Mattila

00:36:11--> 00:36:14

without the Hadeeth letter criminal, Willa.

00:36:16--> 00:36:19

Without that you seem let me just say ma

00:36:20--> 00:37:03

without techies, Latta, Khun Minh and mocha which is similar to the scene that you you say the attribute of Allah is like that. Allah does this allied descends like this, a lot comes like this. That's why sometimes brothers shift you know, you ask us this, you know, just to show you what it is subject and you hear that question often. She, you know, you see a lot descends the last third of the night, according to who according to America, according to Europe, I mean, I'm still here at 630 or 638. Here in Denver. Some people are there they are which which third is you're trying to seek how to travel to find no, you're not supposed to do that.

00:37:04--> 00:37:06

You're not supposed to do that. You see.

00:37:07--> 00:37:22

Let me at a better color law who built a fee? Allah did not ask you to figure out how his attributes are. Just believe in it the way it is. That's why we say he descends in a way that suits His Majesty and His greatness I leave it

00:37:23--> 00:37:35

Marina, like they say, and remember this light, layer Lmk for law Illa Allah only Allah knows how Allah is supply. Now with that ready?

00:37:36--> 00:37:48

Let's learn what tatil is. So you affirm. Without Tati? What is the negation? This is done by negating divine attributes and denying their existence

00:37:50--> 00:38:19

negating the perfection of Allah by denying his names and attributes, negating the proper conduct towards Allah by abandoning worship or barring that created from its creator, such as those who deny the fact that Allah Subhana Allah created the universe and claimed that it developed and evolved lo Akbar. What does it mean negation brothers and sisters Islam that you see that Allah

00:38:20--> 00:38:27

doesn't have you can do this a completely. You say that Allah doesn't have any attributes, doesn't have any names.

00:38:28--> 00:38:34

That's why see there is a complete and partial. We have two sects in Islam.

00:38:35--> 00:38:42

lm otezla el Jamia jamea they say a lot doesn't have any attributes at all doesn't have any names at all.

00:38:45--> 00:38:46

What are you gonna do with the Koran? You know?

00:38:50--> 00:38:55

Imagine just to show you that when you approach the Quran with that wicked understanding.

00:38:57--> 00:39:10

I think one of them made that statement. That mean every time I come across a rough man or an obnoxious tower, the Most Merciful did is to

00:39:12--> 00:39:26

abandon the throne, disappear stua upon the throne, he says, what that to allow any hacker to hominin Muslim. I wished I could erase it from nullsoft because he cannot do it. He cannot accept it. Imagine that.

00:39:27--> 00:39:42

Imagine this is more appealing than a gators who call them in Philadelphia, that you negate completely the names of a lot like the Jeremy like them or Desi. Or you do it partially like an usher era.

00:39:43--> 00:40:00

Era which is the mainstream just to show you the ministry like that the multitude of Muslims because they don't know these names and have to do you don't know the subject. They actually negate the only affirm certain with a seven with a 15 with a 20. We can delete that or they can delete that

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

But with themselves and we're gonna come to this in more details in the future but they say a lot doesn't have any names. So

00:40:09--> 00:40:12

this is the second line that I want you to memorize today.

00:40:14--> 00:40:15

allama tree Lu?

00:40:16--> 00:40:18

Yeah, boo Adam.

00:40:20--> 00:40:25

So remember the first line laya Lmk for Allah Allah, Allah Allah. Allah is.

00:40:27--> 00:40:31

Only Allah knows. That's why we cannot run your mouth. You cannot run your mouth. You cannot run your head.

00:40:32--> 00:40:41

Allah, Allah the second one alma qilu. Yeah, Buddha Dharma. The one who would against the attributes is worshiping work. Nobody

00:40:43--> 00:40:48

is like, Oh, brother, my wife and hamdulillah you know, she,

00:40:50--> 00:40:51

she, she given me.

00:40:52--> 00:40:55

She given birth to my son.

00:40:56--> 00:41:07

A beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, boy. Okay, what are his attributes? Can you describe him? Oh, he doesn't have any attributes.

00:41:08--> 00:41:10

He doesn't he? He doesn't see.

00:41:11--> 00:41:12

It doesn't talk.

00:41:15--> 00:41:35

Why the fitna of Hong Kong Koran. Why the fitna of Coco Quran. Remember the fitna of the Quran is created not speech. Why? Because that's in the area that people who negated the attributes and mortality, the negated the attributes. So you can do this completely and you can do this partially brothers and sisters in Islam you have this

00:41:37--> 00:42:20

complete RTL negation, this is complete and utter negation such as that. It'll Jeremy and Mr. Desi. And we mentioned the name of the gentleman, Joseph, one who know Durham. The partial that we adopted, which is partial negation, this is like that appeal of LSR II, who negated some of the attributes of Allah Subhana whatnot. So the second thing that you should avoid, so you cannot cancel out all or partial, as long as the name has a presence in the Quran and the Sunnah. Or be to who I affirm it. Allah said that is that Allah says he has a hand. Allah said he has eyes.

00:42:22--> 00:42:23

Allah said that he hears

00:42:24--> 00:42:28

so when you negate it, you're behind the Quran, you're saying this Quran did not.

00:42:30--> 00:42:39

Say you're right about Allah, you're getting that that's a dangerous statement, you're making a statement, which is dangerous. So the first thing that you must avoid is what? God what is the second thing?

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

The head IEF distortion?

00:42:44--> 00:42:49

What is distortion? So they say, Okay, you know what, we're gonna accept it.

00:42:50--> 00:42:52

But this is not what it means.

00:42:53--> 00:42:55

The hand doesn't mean ahead.

00:42:56--> 00:43:12

But let's give those and those are the ashari. Those are the shaila. And, you know, and, and let's give them the benefit of the doubt. Only, let's be Think positive of them. Why they did this? They say listen, when I say a hand,

00:43:14--> 00:43:15

when I use the head they had

00:43:16--> 00:43:22

what is the first thing which comes in your mind? spring out of your mind? The human hand?

00:43:23--> 00:43:24

No, no, no, who said that?

00:43:25--> 00:43:42

I can't do that either. We're gonna come to the STEM field. We're gonna come to the machine. That should be we don't do resemblance. We understand the attribute. Here's the third rule. Here's the third terminology. Laser chemists Lee shyy. Own

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

nothing is like a law. Well, who has 70 albasini.

00:43:47--> 00:43:50

So he is and he sees but not like us.

00:43:52--> 00:44:17

And think about it. What is the difference between our hearing and hearing? Let's take the hearing, for example. Hearing you see, I can only hear you now in that place in that room What I am what am I showed you is but Allah imagine can hear everybody he can hear the people in Denver, the people in Colorado, that he will in London, the people in China at the same time.

00:44:20--> 00:44:36

At any time, he hears them, heard it referred to as the law one How do you tell a lie? If the first few and the last few gin or ins the two races which stand in one place? And each one of you will make a request?

00:44:37--> 00:44:50

Allah will yield us at the same time. And he will give us what we asked for which is not the same. We're not going to ask for the same thing. You're going to ask for a car. I'm going to ask for the house. He's going to ask for.

00:44:52--> 00:44:59

He's going to give you the same thing at the same time. Ma pu kumala ba Phu Kham

00:45:02--> 00:45:03

Either you're getting that,

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

but

00:45:06--> 00:45:21

we understand there is no need to distort to make the grief because those people will lash out or they say, Well, what are you using the hand? Like the hand the hand, don't say Allah doesn't have a handle stop for logic, but the hand means power.

00:45:24--> 00:45:28

A lot comes the command of a lot comes

00:45:29--> 00:45:42

a lot the senses mercy the sense. So, they take the apparent meaning to another meaning of their choice. Why? Because they are afraid they are doing resemblance No, no who said that, who said that? Watch this

00:45:44--> 00:45:50

video is to watch the words from their correct meanings to invented meanings without any evidence.

00:45:53--> 00:46:25

The grief is a form of deviation and interpreting Allah His names and attributes because one interpret the text regarding the attributes above other than their true interpretation. By doing so they change and they claim that they are changing the meanings from one probable probable understanding to another one without any evidence except that which is from the opinion and the intellect of men. And that opened the door brothers and sisters refuse to speak about a lot in a way.

00:46:27--> 00:46:28

Let's give them the benefit of the doubt.

00:46:30--> 00:46:36

Ushahidi in particular they claim that they do this because they don't want us to end up

00:46:38--> 00:46:40

butchering a law in a human way.

00:46:42--> 00:46:57

Because a lot of these attributes are similar to the human attributes but who said that we understand these attributes in that country you see we understand the attributes that's why we say what Allah sees in a way that suits His Majesty and His greatness.

00:46:58--> 00:47:09

Lisa can cliche even like like if I tell you right now I learned masala here the hand the human hand, the hand of a donkey

00:47:11--> 00:47:14

the hand of a dog the hand of a cat

00:47:16--> 00:47:17

the hand of a birds

00:47:18--> 00:47:19

are the same

00:47:21--> 00:47:22

they look the same.

00:47:23--> 00:47:25

And and we're talking about creative things you

00:47:26--> 00:47:30

know they are different they are not the same. Why? Because the essence is different.

00:47:32--> 00:47:42

that the body is different. The hand the human body is like this the bird like this because the essence with a law is divine essence law.

00:47:43--> 00:47:49

So we can not Mashallah caffeine alpha your Anil money

00:47:50--> 00:47:54

that is why best said the only shield

00:47:55--> 00:48:14

between the world and Jenna or is the names Yeah, we're talking about bananas but it's not 202 v moutere shabbiha look like the bananas in the world but there's not the bananas in the world. No, it just the need because if I come and describe you know that the agenda to you in a way that

00:48:16--> 00:48:25

like if I come Okay, let me brothers let me describe Jenna for you. Jenna has mini golden doodle red cat Gonzaga Tagalog Joe gum bugs domburg

00:48:27--> 00:48:34

la la Jana has been an agenda has drinks. Jenna has fruits. Jenna has food

00:48:35--> 00:48:49

agenda. So I'm describing Jenna in a way that you understand but it doesn't mean that it is you're getting the point I think you're getting the point you're smart. Ladies, second cliche or semi Oh, Albacete

00:48:50--> 00:49:04

there are three ways that a person may do the grief. The hurry full Manny like let's say that people who refuse to affirm that Allah speaks that Allah speaks

00:49:06--> 00:49:11

so they end up doing what they work on their grammars while am

00:49:13--> 00:49:17

Moosa nimi cartina waka lemma

00:49:19--> 00:49:21

look at this a llama hora.

00:49:23--> 00:49:29

So, so they affirm the speech to the created to Moosa

00:49:30--> 00:49:44

that Moses spoke to Allah and Allah did not speak back to him. So imagine look at how wicked This is that you affirm and attribute to the creative being, but you don't afraid you don't affirm it for for for the creator for the one who created

00:49:46--> 00:49:53

so they what they ended up doing the playing with the grammars Oh, sometimes they actually change the wording

00:49:55--> 00:49:59

is tower alloush is tower

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

So they add a stole, conquer, took over the floor.

00:50:08--> 00:50:25

So they ended up and sometimes they do the literal meaning like the hand they say it's power heated is literally by altering the wordings of the names and the attributes by adding to them subtracting from them by changing the graphic that grammatical

00:50:26--> 00:50:49

construction such as, an Allah spoke directly to Moosa, like I said, or by changing the meaning and this is the most common by the way of the world through giving it a metaphorical majeste meaning and not took taking it. Literally, his hand represents his power, and his Pistole of bounty, such as

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

the interpretation This requires the negation of the attribute. So this is the hurry. As soon as Gemma brothers and sisters in Islam, we attest the attributes mentioned in the Quran and the Sunnah. And we take it in face value to Hans

00:51:09--> 00:51:36

Stovall ash, yet NSL sopin. We understand it in a way without comparing them to the human attributes, or interpreting them in a way that leads to negation. Look at an image of chef a Are you believe in Allah subhana wa Taala and what Revelation tells about him in the manner he intended, and I believe in the Prophet sallallahu Sallam in the manner he intended, well, that was upon a lie on

00:51:37--> 00:52:05

the Arabs you know that the Muslims understood this the names and they never questioned, they never said what it means they never said that. Have you ever had an a hadith were a companion came to the prophet and said What does Stovall harsh means? He was he they understood what the mobile is to Allah was the car. In a way The truth is much so this is the second thing that we must avoid. Brothers and sisters an example of the Hadith

00:52:06--> 00:52:50

such as changing the meanings of earlier than the two hands, meaning power or bounty or to change the meaning of power, the ascension meaning is taller, a bike that a lot laughs a lot laughs in a way that suits His Majesty. It means when he loves that means Allah is pleased with you, then he will give you the reward. You see, you take a word from it is meaning to an apparent meaning from a from the apparent meaning to a hidden mean. Okay, let's finish up here. So we at least will finish the affirmation today. And next we'll do the negation inshallah. Brothers and sisters in Islam. But here's the information you affirm without what copy number two, without what distortion? Number

00:52:50--> 00:52:57

three, without that you seem without them feel without touch be that you cannot say Allah does this in that way.

00:52:59--> 00:53:08

affirming likeness, a likeness with something such as if a person wants to say the hand of Allah is like the human hand. We don't say that.

00:53:09--> 00:53:18

We don't say that. Because we understand the hand, the attributes, the names in a way that suits His Majesty, right.

00:53:20--> 00:54:03

Laser chemist Lee Shea wahoo was semi last years. All right, moving forward, example of them feeling and I love this brothers and sisters in Islam and pay attention if you're living in the West, you should take this to them. Actually, the Christian and the rules we're not, we're not meant to do that seem of a lot because that's the that's the guilt right here. That's what they distorted. They said a lot comes down in a in the flesh they made they seem they say Allah embodies Jesus Jesus in a Latin and that's why the RSA, look at the first command, I want you to look at the green, the green bullet, the first command in the 10 commandments, this this is how it reads, by the way, some of you

00:54:03--> 00:54:51

may not know that. And God spoke all these words, I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of land of slavery, you shall have no other gods before me. So this is one, which is what La ilaha illAllah. That's one. But look at this. Now look at this. You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven, above or on the earth beneath or in the water below. And call it God and you bow down. You're not supposed to make an image of Allah. You see, that's what they did. They said, Allah comes down in Jesus. And you see, that's the danger of allies. Every wave statement, you're getting that, that you make an image, and that's the justification the

00:54:51--> 00:54:59

disbelievers of Mecca had you see that this village of Mecca, they never denied the existence of Allah but they said Allah embodies the idols.

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

We all worship a lot we don't worship we don't worship manner, but we worship the spirit inside them. The spirit of god yeah, you're getting that. So that's what we call that you see?

00:55:11--> 00:55:17

Here's the first statement remember lion cave Allah Allah Allah later Can we please help me on bossy?

00:55:18--> 00:55:20

llama coloca. One okona had

00:55:21--> 00:55:30

just seen Alma de lluvia Buddha Dharma, the one who negates his worship and he was like why wasn't more just symbol Yeah, Buddha center.

00:55:31--> 00:55:35

And if you resemble Allah to his created beings, then you're worshipping an idol.

00:55:37--> 00:55:46

One will just seem Yeah, Buddha was the one who says Allah looks like this. He is certainly

00:55:48--> 00:55:56

worshipping an idol he made an idol of Allah Subhana like the Christians they bow down to marry the icon of Maryam icon of Jesus,

00:55:57--> 00:56:40

or the people who bow down because they say Allah is inside that and that is what we call Timothy, the last thing brothers and sisters in Islam, then we're done. I know that we're not gonna have time for questions and answers today. But for the last thing, I wanted to finish this today, it's bet that you affirm what Allah affirmed for himself or his messenger without number one negation to without distortion number three without 10 fields that you've seen that should be resemblance number four tacky is that you say Allah is like that. Or do you trying to figure out what is the key brothers and sisters in Islam is to mention how an attribute such as someone saying Allah, his hand

00:56:40--> 00:56:51

is like that. Sometimes a person may even combine this turkey with resemblance which is both subpanel law brothers and sisters in Islam.

00:56:53--> 00:56:57

So Pamela, here is the last statement that you you should know.

00:56:59--> 00:57:12

Yeah, G will Cafu on it techie fee. Schumpeter filehandle killer deal on Belgian our courier and Bill listen outta hurry Iran Bill banane

00:57:13--> 00:57:23

You must cut off any hope that you can reach the reality or the nature of who Allah is.

00:57:25--> 00:57:42

You must give up that with a deer and Bill gentle that your brain okay? Like the people who smoke dope and get okay. You know what, let me let me let me figure out how Allah looks like okay? Say Subhana Allah Allah is above that.

00:57:43--> 00:57:44

You must give up that

00:57:46--> 00:57:55

and you don't have to do it. The thing is lemmya bedika law who built a fee? Allah did not ask us to figure out how he looks like

00:57:56--> 00:58:01

just understand believe in a way that matches his names and attributes brother that's it.

00:58:03--> 00:58:03
