alayhi wasallam.

00:02:18 --> 00:02:20
			The immediate people
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:25
			who accepted Islam from the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:28
			who believed in his message
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:55
			from the immigrants, those who dwell in Medina and also from Al unser, the place where the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and the immigrants later on after 13 years in Mecca migrated to witches
in Medina and those who followed them exactly
		
00:02:56 --> 00:03:01
			in faith well Edina tada Oh boom BSN.
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:25
			We ask Allah subhana wa Taala to be amongst those who follow exactly the footsteps of will Mahajan,
and will answer in faith. Why are the loved one humara one? Allah subhanho wa Taala is saying, am
will pleased with them.
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:31
			And they are will pleased with Allah subhana wa Taala.
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:34
			And he prepared for them
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:44
			a paradise beneath which river flows. Indeed, this is the ultimate success.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:50
			Brothers and sisters in Islam. It is an honor
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:56
			to talk about the companions of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:03:57 --> 00:04:06
			It is so touching to me personally. Because I love all of them in a way that you cannot imagine.
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:21
			and hoping in Allah subhana wa Taala in the different direction, that I will be with them. The
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says, a remarkable man
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:29
			a person will be with those whom he loved brothers and sisters in Islam.
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:36
			Why? righteous companions? I mean, why this series?
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:43
			I was blessed before to present to the viewers of Hodor TV.
		
00:04:44 --> 00:05:00
			More than one theory, the inevitable journey and also the best stories from the Quran. And I always
before I begin actually citing and narrating the
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:06
			actual content of the Siri, I explained to my viewers Why?
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:31
			Why do we talk about the companions? What motivates you to learn about the companions? Why do we
need to learn about the companions? what justifies you to sit in front of you in front of someone
like myself, and justifies me to use that airtime in order to talk about such a subject?
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:39
			Is it because we don't have anything else to talk about? Or we really need that subject
		
00:05:40 --> 00:06:18
			insha Allah in this episode, and maybe the next two episodes again, I will spend some times some
time before I actually embark on talking about the companions of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, but I want to warn you, that are not going to talk about their biography, no, very brief,
very brief, addressing of some of the events that took place in the lives of some of these
companions, in order to serve the objective
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:54
			for which we are talking about righteous companions. Now it's time to know why are we talking about
the companions of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam? Because based on this, we will talk about
them. Brothers and sisters in Islam. There are seven reasons, seven reasons why should we learn
about righteous companions? Why should we learn about the companions of the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wasallam.
		
00:06:55 --> 00:07:03
			The first reason is, the oma lacks role models.
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:10
			We do not have people that we can adapt their lifestyle.
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:18
			We see a lot of Muslims coming back to their Deen all over the world.
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:31
			Don't despair, my dear brother, my dear sister, don't a lot of Muslims. They are coming back to the
deen. And you know what? They are searching for the pure Deen.
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:40
			But unfortunately, they don't have living role models to help them
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:54
			carry on. It is difficult. They feel like strangers. And this is something that the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam did expect for the true believers.
		
00:07:55 --> 00:08:04
			So they need some people, role models in front of them in order to adopt an act, the way that they
acted.
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:15
			We know that Allah subhanho wa Taala made the messengers and the prophets to be a living example for
their followers.
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:26
			And in a lot of cases, and this is actually mentioned in the Quran, that the disbeliever sometimes
would request that the messenger would be an angel,
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:37
			an angel, Allah subhana wa Taala tells them if the messenger is an angel, he would not then become a
role model for you.
		
00:08:39 --> 00:09:29
			Because if the messenger does something, while the messenger is an angel, not a human being, then he
commands you to do that thing. What are you going to say? You're going to say that he's an angel and
a human being, that is why the messenger because he is the schwa he is the example that you must
follow. He is a human being like you. He is also someone who eats and drinks Maris goes to the
market. He does everything he has a family to take care of. But at the same time, he is able to
attain righteousness and piety. In some cases, the people will say, this is the Messenger of Allah.
He is supported by y by the revelation.
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:59
			He is supported by Allah subhanho wa Taala that he does not fall into major sins. That is why the
companions of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam are the ideal. We know that our absolute
example is Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam back Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam delivered
his message to people who lived around him who were not supported by the revelation who
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:02
			Human beings like you and me.
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:22
			And you know what they were able to attain a high level of piety and righteousness. And that is why
we need to learn about them in order to be able, brothers and sisters in Islam, to adopt the example
in the lives
		
00:10:23 --> 00:11:01
			why righteous companions must be that example. Why righteous companions are the people whom we
should look at. Right now brothers and sisters in Islam. Unfortunately, we do not have role models
in the oma. We don't. And if they are, they are very few and they are hidden all over the place.
They are hidden in different places. And in the absence of role models, you will find that media
outlets, TV, movies, hollywood
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:23
			picture making people football that sport organizations the sport organization, football, soccer,
you name it basketball, they presented to our youth, to our Muslim children, people who are not
deserving to be role models for our upcoming generations.
		
00:11:25 --> 00:12:30
			Right now, you will find sisters who follow the footsteps of an actress. She would like to speak
like her, she would like to dress like her or a brother, who would mimic a football player.
Meanwhile, he knows that football player drinks alcohol, he commits adultery and so on. So in the
absence of role models, different organizations outlets introduced to the oma people who do not
deserve to be role models for us. That is why it is the time now. It is the time now to bring back
the people who deserve to be the role models for us, which is righteous companions. The question
that we ask why righteous companions deserve to play that role in our lives? We will take a short
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:36
			break and we will come back in sha Allah to answer this question.
		
00:12:37 --> 00:13:08
			Remember, we are still answering this question. In the first episode of the series righteous
companions? Why righteous companions? And we answered the first reason because we lack role models.
We need role models, and the companions are the ideal role models for us. Why? Let's answer this
after a short break. Don't go away Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:39
			If you want the second rule of n mean a second, that is the letter mean. So if the first mean is non
vowel or second, followed by a vowel mean. So I will merge the face in the mirror and I would
pronounce them as one
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:51
			man whom in and we spoke abundantly on the virtues of seek refuge with Allah from the outcast Satan,
especially for the free society. He's got to recite it out loud.
		
00:13:57 --> 00:14:03
			Nina Shane Horner Raji Bismillah Ar Rahman.
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:21
			Make sure it's done that way. He then knew why he then thank you for joining us.
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:46
			Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:59
			Brothers and sisters in Islam. We'll come back to righteous companions. Why righteous companions
because we lack role models.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:13
			Why righteous companions must be our role models. You know why? Because the one who knows the inner
self, of all of his creation,
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:15
			braise them.
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:18
			Allah, La Ilaha Illa. Who?
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:25
			Allah when Allah subhanho wa Taala praises someone, it's done.
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:35
			The certainly tirmidhi beautiful Hadith, even through the scholars of Hadith have talked about its
authenticity,
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:56
			a bit when I was talking to another person in front of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam. And he told
him this. If I praise you, that means you're done, you're helpless. It's over. No one can bring you
down.
		
00:15:57 --> 00:16:01
			And if I defame you, or if I bring you down,
		
00:16:02 --> 00:16:48
			if I do them, if I disgrace you, then it's over. No one can elevate you anymore. The Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam commented and he said, very corrupt. Bula el Amin. This is Allah. When
Allah subhana wa Taala braises someone It's over. It's over. Because Allah subhanho wa Taala knows
what's inside each one of us, brothers and sisters in Islam. Let's see what Allah subhana wa Taala
said regarding these righteous companions. Beside the first verse that I quoted at the beginning of
the episode, that he said I am pleased with them.
		
00:16:51 --> 00:17:00
			There are verses in Surah kill hash, where Allah subhana wa Taala spoke about the immigrants and an
answer individually.
		
00:17:01 --> 00:17:21
			When it came to the spoils of war, the booty for how they should be distributed, how the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam should distribute them. Allah subhanho wa Taala told the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam this little fukao l Maha God in Allah Dena ocurrido min the
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:28
			moon la mina La Jolla.
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:49
			Oh Mohamed Salah la vida Muhammad and May Allah Subhana Allah be pleased with all of his companions
distribute some of the booty of all the spoils of war to the poor of the immigrants who were
expelled from their homes
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:58
			and their wealth in order to adhere to the commander of Allah subhanho wa Taala to migrate from
Mecca to Medina.
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:00
			Yatta Luna
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:26
			law you wanna they are seeking the bounty and the pleasure of Allah when they did this when they
accepted to abandon their homes and their willings and their wealth and leave it for Allah subhanho
wa Taala they will not doing it to show off. They were doing it for Allah subhana wa tada and Allah
subhana wa tada is telling you in the Quran, Allah,
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:33
			aka woman saw the poo. Indeed those are the truthful.
		
00:18:35 --> 00:19:16
			There was a companion His name is sohaib or Viola one and in Sharla in the series, we will talk
about him in his way out. The disbelievers quote him they told him at 18 so Luca, Shakira, you came
to our school, now you made all this money and you want to leave with it. No, no way. So high it
tells them if I leave you the money, will you let me at the heel to the command of Allah subhana wa
Tada. They said yes, he told them the money in this place and displays and displays go take it.
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:23
			He lifts all his belongings brothers and sisters in Islam, seeking the pleasure of Allah.
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:44
			Allah subhanho wa Taala revealed a verse regarding him while a sorrowful mustard rock feel free most
of the cleaner will hack in our Abdullah nice, Allah, Allah subhana wa tada says wamena semi sharena
EVO robotic
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:59
			one la hora de la Eva. Am some of the people who will trade everything will sell everything just for
the pleasure of Allah subhanho wa Taala and that was so high
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:08
			Brothers and sisters in Islam, Allah subhanho wa Taala said about him Oh hygiene, that the word the
truthful, the water bottle and saw
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:11
			one lady Natasha
		
00:20:15 --> 00:20:18
			kabini him Yo, boo.
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:20
			Jo, he while
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:24
			he him
		
00:20:25 --> 00:20:25
			while
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:29
			he him hard
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:32
			to
		
00:20:36 --> 00:20:38
			foresee him, why you feel
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:41
			footsie?
		
00:20:45 --> 00:20:49
			100 See
		
00:20:54 --> 00:21:33
			Ya Allah, Allah subhanaw taala say whatever, and the people the overall meetings, the overall the
overall meanings, and then answer also give them a share of the booty of war or Muhammad sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam because you know what? They given half of their belongings, half of their
belongings when Abdurahman if now migrated to Medina, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam boot
him together with another companion, his name is Salvador robbia. And he told them, that is your
brother, Saudi Arabia called up the rock man. And he told him Yeah,
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:39
			look at my house, take half. Look at my wolf take half
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:52
			brothers and sisters in Islam. They prefer the immigrants over themselves when they are desperate
when they are so in need for it.
		
00:21:53 --> 00:22:06
			Brothers and sisters in Islam, those are the successful. Another verse where Allah subhanho wa Taala
called both Elmo hygiene and will answer the true believers.
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:10
			One, the man who
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:13
			feeds
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:25
			and those who believed and migrated the immigrants and they strove in the course of Allah, there is
no Hijri one
		
00:22:28 --> 00:22:35
			and those who hosted them, given them shelter, and they given victory to the deen to the religion of
Allah.
		
00:22:38 --> 00:23:19
			Eco Muna haka. Indeed, those are the true believers. No one in the face of this earth can judge the
faith of another human being the only one who can judge your faith is the knower of the heart. La
Ilaha Illa Who? Allah subhanho wa Taala in the Koran, he is saying those are the true believers.
Those are the true believers lahoma Fira, they will earn forgiveness for the shortcomings. What is
caring and a generous provision from the most generous or a Boolean I mean, brothers and sisters in
Islam.
		
00:23:21 --> 00:23:32
			We must actually take them as role models. Based on this verse in Surah. Nisa, Allah subhanho wa
Taala says, one
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:39
			wire,
		
00:23:40 --> 00:23:46
			wire dry Oh savvy new mini Lima.
		
00:23:54 --> 00:24:06
			And whoever opposes the messenger This is from amongst us contradicts the messenger and takes a bath
of a path other than the path of the believers meaning the companions
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:46
			he will abort in the abiding the Hellfire for eternity. Brothers and sisters in Islam. Allah subhana
wa Taala raised that generation, the best generation ever walked in the face of this earth, the
generation of the companions, it is time for you. If you want to follow the footsteps of somebody to
learn about them again. It is time for all of us. For all of us, brothers and sisters in Islam, to
take the books out to learn about the generation
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:56
			brothers and sisters in Islam. A lot of forces out there. They want to split us
		
00:24:57 --> 00:25:00
			to place a wall between us
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:01
			And that generation,
		
00:25:03 --> 00:25:40
			big that wall and insha Allah, I'm hoping in Allah subhanho wa Taala my hope is only in Allah
subhanho wa Taala that this series of episodes, righteous companions will contribute to the breaking
of this wall to the destruction of this wall that we ended up merging, merging, merging again with
that beautiful generation, the generation that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said about
them, my companions
		
00:25:42 --> 00:26:19
			I have not finished talking about the first reason why righteous companions yet my time is up for
this episode. inshallah, don't miss the next episode of righteous companions. I will continue on
with the first reason and hoping insha Allah to talk about the second, the third and the fourth and
the fifth and the sixth and the seventh reason why righteous companions till then Assalamu alaykum
warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:05
			do you
