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

In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the

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

Merciful.

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

All praise is due to Allah, Lord of

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

all the worlds.

00:00:05 --> 00:00:09

And peace and blessings be upon the messengers

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

and prophets.

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

Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, peace and

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

blessings be upon him and his family and

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

companions.

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

Peace be upon him and his family.

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

Next, my brothers and sisters, I am sure

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

many of you have heard these sayings and

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

these true narratives.

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

I don't say story because sometimes stories are

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

made up.

00:00:37 --> 00:00:40

The true narratives about our son of Salihin,

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

for example, Abdullah bin Mubarak.

00:00:45 --> 00:00:52

Abdullah Ali, who was among the greatest of

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

the Tabi'een, he said, I spent 30

00:00:57 --> 00:01:03

years learning Adab before I approached the Deen.

00:01:04 --> 00:01:07

30 years learning Adab.

00:01:11 --> 00:01:20

Similarly, Imam Malik bin Anas, he says

00:01:20 --> 00:01:26

that, my mother used to take me to

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

Masjid-e-Nabawi-e-Sharif at the time

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

of Fajr.

00:01:30 --> 00:01:32

So, she would wake me up before Fajr

00:01:32 --> 00:01:36

and then she would wake him to Wudu.

00:01:36 --> 00:01:37

As a little kid, he was about five

00:01:37 --> 00:01:38

years old maybe or less.

00:01:40 --> 00:01:43

And she would dress him up and she

00:01:43 --> 00:01:44

would tie an Amama on his head.

00:01:46 --> 00:01:49

This little kid, tie an Amama on his

00:01:49 --> 00:01:49

head.

00:01:51 --> 00:01:53

And then she would take him to Masjid

00:01:53 --> 00:01:56

-e-Nabawi-e-Sharif and put him in

00:01:56 --> 00:01:59

the class of Rabi'at-ur-Rai.

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

Rahmatullah Ali, who was one of his teachers.

00:02:03 --> 00:02:06

And she would say to him, take from

00:02:06 --> 00:02:08

the Akhlaq and take from the Adab of

00:02:08 --> 00:02:11

Rabi'at before you take from his Ilm.

00:02:13 --> 00:02:16

Take from the Adab of Rabi'at-ur

00:02:16 --> 00:02:18

-Rai before you take from his Ilm.

00:02:20 --> 00:02:24

The reason I say this is because today

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26

we seem to live in a world, and

00:02:26 --> 00:02:32

especially in this country, where Adab is completely...

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

there is no Adab.

00:02:36 --> 00:02:37

May Allah bless all of you who are

00:02:37 --> 00:02:38

sitting here with Adab, Alhamdulillah.

00:02:40 --> 00:02:42

But otherwise, there is no Adab.

00:02:44 --> 00:02:45

Now, see the importance of Adab.

00:02:46 --> 00:02:51

The first Hadith in Sayyid Muslim is the

00:02:51 --> 00:02:53

Hadith which is known as Hadith Jibreel.

00:02:55 --> 00:02:59

Hadith Jibreel is narrated by Abdullah ibn Umar,

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

who narrates from his father, Umar ibn al

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

-Khattab.

00:03:08 --> 00:03:11

And Hadith Jibreel is considered, it's called the

00:03:11 --> 00:03:13

Ummul Sunnah.

00:03:13 --> 00:03:15

It's called the mother of the Sunnah.

00:03:18 --> 00:03:21

I'm sure many of you or all of

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

you know the Hadith.

00:03:21 --> 00:03:23

You would have heard it sometime or the

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

other.

00:03:24 --> 00:03:28

It's one of the most important Hadiths.

00:03:28 --> 00:03:31

Where Umar ibn al-Khattab narrated and he

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

said that we were sitting in the company

00:03:33 --> 00:03:35

of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, which means

00:03:35 --> 00:03:36

that there were a number of them sitting

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

with the Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.

00:03:40 --> 00:03:43

And he said a man came, who we

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

did not know.

00:03:45 --> 00:03:47

His clothes were extremely white.

00:03:49 --> 00:03:51

And his hair was extremely black.

00:03:52 --> 00:03:55

And there were no signs of travel on

00:03:55 --> 00:03:56

his body.

00:03:57 --> 00:03:59

So, he came from the desert, but there

00:03:59 --> 00:04:01

was not a speck of dust on him,

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

no sweat on him, nothing on him.

00:04:05 --> 00:04:10

And he came and he stood at the

00:04:10 --> 00:04:13

end of the room of the Wazir, where

00:04:13 --> 00:04:14

they were sitting.

00:04:14 --> 00:04:16

And he called Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,

00:04:16 --> 00:04:18

he said, Ya Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,

00:04:21 --> 00:04:22

can I come forward?

00:04:23 --> 00:04:24

And Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, come.

00:04:25 --> 00:04:29

So, he came through the people.

00:04:30 --> 00:04:34

And he sat in front of Rasulullah sallallahu

00:04:34 --> 00:04:36

alayhi wa sallam, in the position of Tashahud.

00:04:36 --> 00:04:37

And Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was also

00:04:37 --> 00:04:38

sitting like this.

00:04:39 --> 00:04:41

And he sat in front of him in

00:04:41 --> 00:04:44

the position of Tashahud, with his knees touching

00:04:44 --> 00:04:45

the knees of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.

00:04:45 --> 00:04:50

And he leaned forward and he put his

00:04:50 --> 00:04:56

hands on the thighs of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi

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

wa sallam.

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

So, you know, that close.

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

Now, before I go into the rest of

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

the Hadith, see what is being taught here.

00:05:06 --> 00:05:08

What is being taught here is the adab

00:05:08 --> 00:05:09

of learning.

00:05:10 --> 00:05:13

And from the adab of learning is that

00:05:13 --> 00:05:15

you sit as close to the Ustad as

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

possible.

00:05:16 --> 00:05:19

Because the teacher is the manifestation of the

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

knowledge.

00:05:21 --> 00:05:23

The knowledge comes to you because of the

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

teacher.

00:05:25 --> 00:05:27

The book is the manifestation of knowledge.

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

That's the reason why when you take Imam

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

Malik Rahmatullah Ali Ajib, these people.

00:05:33 --> 00:05:35

Imam Malik Rahmatullah Ali Ajib, when he would

00:05:35 --> 00:05:37

give Dars of Hadith, and he is giving

00:05:37 --> 00:05:39

Dars of his own Kitab, which is Muwatta.

00:05:41 --> 00:05:44

He would make ghusl, he would put on

00:05:44 --> 00:05:48

his best clothes, then he would come to

00:05:48 --> 00:05:50

Wajahid Nabi Sharif, he would pray Duraqatul Salat,

00:05:50 --> 00:05:53

then he would sit and he would give

00:05:53 --> 00:05:53

the Dars.

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

Although his own book.

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

But what does the book have?

00:06:02 --> 00:06:05

It has the Hadith of Nabawiya sallallahu alayhi

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

wa sallam.

00:06:08 --> 00:06:12

And we have the famous instance, where one

00:06:12 --> 00:06:15

day he was sitting and giving Dars, and

00:06:15 --> 00:06:18

people saw the colour left his face, he

00:06:18 --> 00:06:19

became white.

00:06:21 --> 00:06:22

And they could see that he was in

00:06:22 --> 00:06:25

tremendous pain, but he's not saying anything, so

00:06:25 --> 00:06:26

the people also out of respect, they didn't

00:06:26 --> 00:06:27

ask him anything.

00:06:28 --> 00:06:31

When he finished that whole Dars, then he

00:06:31 --> 00:06:31

collapsed.

00:06:33 --> 00:06:35

So they went and they quickly, you know,

00:06:35 --> 00:06:36

put some water and so on, revived him,

00:06:36 --> 00:06:40

and they saw that a scorpion had bitten

00:06:40 --> 00:06:42

him, it got under his shirt, it had

00:06:42 --> 00:06:43

bitten him more than 30 times.

00:06:47 --> 00:06:50

They asked him, Sayyidi, why didn't you say

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

anything?

00:06:51 --> 00:06:54

I mean, this is Jai, you don't have

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

to do that.

00:06:55 --> 00:06:57

Even in Salah, if there is something which

00:06:57 --> 00:06:59

is, you know, harming you, or you are

00:06:59 --> 00:07:02

allowed to kill that thing or get yourself

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

out of it, there's no problem.

00:07:04 --> 00:07:08

Why is it, does he not know, if

00:07:08 --> 00:07:11

Imam Malik does not know the Usool, then

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

who knows the Usool?

00:07:14 --> 00:07:19

He said, because of the adab of, and

00:07:19 --> 00:07:22

he pointed to the Rauza Mubarak, and he

00:07:22 --> 00:07:25

says, hadi sahibul khabar.

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

It's because of the adab for Muhammad Sallallahu

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

Alaihi Wasallam.

00:07:31 --> 00:07:34

I am narrating his Hadith, I don't want

00:07:34 --> 00:07:36

that to be interrupted, to be stopped.

00:07:40 --> 00:07:43

So in Hadith Jibreel, Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

00:07:43 --> 00:07:46

is sitting there, Jibreel-e-Salam comes, sits

00:07:46 --> 00:07:50

right close to him, and then he is

00:07:50 --> 00:07:52

asking, now see, this Hadith is so beautiful,

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

it is a whole pedagogy of learning and

00:07:55 --> 00:07:56

teaching and how to teach and how to

00:07:56 --> 00:07:57

learn.

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

Because Jibreel-e-Salam came and he is

00:08:00 --> 00:08:02

asking Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam questions, but it's

00:08:02 --> 00:08:03

not a test of the Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi

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

Wasallam, he knows that Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

00:08:04 --> 00:08:06

knows these things, this is nothing new for

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

him.

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

The question and answer is being done to

00:08:10 --> 00:08:12

teach the people in the room, to teach

00:08:12 --> 00:08:14

the people in the Masjid, they are the

00:08:14 --> 00:08:15

actual students.

00:08:17 --> 00:08:19

But Jibreel-e-Salam is not coming and

00:08:19 --> 00:08:21

giving a lecture, he is coming and talking

00:08:21 --> 00:08:22

to the Rasul-e-Salam and he is

00:08:22 --> 00:08:26

asking him questions, he says, Ya Rasulullah, he

00:08:26 --> 00:08:28

says, Ya Muhammad, what is Islam?

00:08:30 --> 00:08:31

And Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said to say,

00:08:31 --> 00:08:32

I bear witness that there is no god

00:08:32 --> 00:08:35

but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad

00:08:35 --> 00:08:35

is the Messenger of Allah, and I bear

00:08:35 --> 00:08:35

witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah,

00:08:36 --> 00:08:42

and Hajj, the five pillars of Islam.

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

And then he says, what is Iman?

00:08:48 --> 00:08:52

And Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam describes the six

00:08:52 --> 00:08:54

elements of Iman.

00:08:54 --> 00:09:03

Iman, Iman Billah, Walaika, Kutub, Rasul,

00:09:05 --> 00:09:08

Al-Jawal Akhira, Qadr.

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

Khayrihi wa Sharrihi min Allahi Ta'ala.

00:09:14 --> 00:09:17

And then he says, Wa Mal Ihsan, Ya

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

Rasulullah, what is Ihsan?

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

And see the reply of Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi

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

Wasallam.

00:09:24 --> 00:09:30

He says, An Ta'budallaha Ka'annakatar, as

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

if you can see.

00:09:30 --> 00:09:32

To worship Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala as

00:09:32 --> 00:09:33

if you can see Allah.

00:09:37 --> 00:09:41

To have this awareness, this sense of being

00:09:41 --> 00:09:43

in the glory and majesty and presence of

00:09:43 --> 00:09:45

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, and to worship

00:09:45 --> 00:09:47

Allah as if you can see Him.

00:09:47 --> 00:09:49

Fa illam takun tarafa innahu yanak.

00:09:50 --> 00:09:51

And though you cannot see Him, you know

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

that He is seeing you.

00:09:56 --> 00:09:58

And then he asked him about the signs

00:09:58 --> 00:09:59

of the last day.

00:09:59 --> 00:10:00

He asked him, when is the day of

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

judgement?

00:10:01 --> 00:10:02

And Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said, the one

00:10:02 --> 00:10:04

who is asking knows as much as the

00:10:04 --> 00:10:05

one who is being asked.

00:10:06 --> 00:10:07

Meaning, only Allah knows.

00:10:07 --> 00:10:08

And then he said, what are the signs?

00:10:08 --> 00:10:09

Then he gave him the signs.

00:10:09 --> 00:10:13

Now, point I'm making here is that as

00:10:13 --> 00:10:17

far as learning is concerned, one thing we

00:10:17 --> 00:10:26

have to clearly understand is Allah Subhanahu Wa

00:10:26 --> 00:10:26

Ta'ala is the one who makes the

00:10:26 --> 00:10:27

rules.

00:10:29 --> 00:10:31

Whether it is physics, whether it is chemistry,

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

whether it is learning, whether it is disease,

00:10:34 --> 00:10:38

whether it is health, everything to do with

00:10:38 --> 00:10:40

this dunya and akhira, the rule maker, the

00:10:40 --> 00:10:41

law maker is who?

00:10:42 --> 00:10:42

Is Allah.

00:10:43 --> 00:10:49

So that the Rasul Alaihi Salatu Wasalam came

00:10:49 --> 00:10:50

to teach us those rules.

00:10:53 --> 00:10:54

He came to teach us these laws.

00:10:55 --> 00:10:57

Some we call the laws of physics, some

00:10:57 --> 00:10:59

we call the laws of chemistry, some we

00:10:59 --> 00:11:01

call the natural laws and whatnot, and some

00:11:01 --> 00:11:02

are the laws of Islam.

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

They're all made by Allah.

00:11:05 --> 00:11:07

Newton did not make gravity, Allah Subhanahu Wa

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

Ta'ala made gravity, and so on and

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

so on.

00:11:17 --> 00:11:20

So the reason why the Rasul came, Sallallahu

00:11:20 --> 00:11:23

Alaihi Wasallam, was to teach us these laws

00:11:23 --> 00:11:24

and say, look, these are the laws of

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

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

00:11:26 --> 00:11:27

Now, he didn't teach us about physics and

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

chemistry because that was, these are what we

00:11:30 --> 00:11:36

call the uloom of which help, ayana, which

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

help to understand.

00:11:37 --> 00:11:44

The actual uloomul ula, the aala uloom, are

00:11:44 --> 00:11:47

the uloom of the shariah, of the deen.

00:11:49 --> 00:11:51

The Rasul came to teach us this so

00:11:51 --> 00:11:55

that we can then live our lives correctly

00:11:55 --> 00:11:56

according to these laws.

00:11:56 --> 00:11:59

Because one of the realities of life is

00:11:59 --> 00:12:02

that if we are in the purview of

00:12:02 --> 00:12:05

a law, the only way to survive and

00:12:05 --> 00:12:07

to thrive is by following the law.

00:12:08 --> 00:12:13

For example, the law of gravity is that

00:12:13 --> 00:12:16

gravity, the earth, has a force which pulls

00:12:16 --> 00:12:19

towards itself anything which is free-falling.

00:12:20 --> 00:12:24

Anything which is in the purview of gravity,

00:12:24 --> 00:12:27

to the extent to which gravity extends, anything

00:12:27 --> 00:12:30

in that space is pulled towards the earth,

00:12:30 --> 00:12:35

free-falling object, and this is pulled at

00:12:35 --> 00:12:38

a rate of 32 feet per second per

00:12:38 --> 00:12:39

second, that's the acceleration.

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

As in the famous experiment of Galileo where

00:12:44 --> 00:12:46

he dropped a feather and he dropped an

00:12:46 --> 00:12:49

iron ball from a height in almost a

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

vacuum and both reached the floor at the

00:12:51 --> 00:12:52

same time.

00:12:55 --> 00:12:56

This is the law of gravity.

00:12:57 --> 00:13:03

Now, if you or me or anybody, we

00:13:03 --> 00:13:06

go up in a plane and we say

00:13:06 --> 00:13:09

I'm going to be doing skydiving and you

00:13:09 --> 00:13:11

jump out of the plane at 20,000

00:13:11 --> 00:13:16

feet or whatever elevation they do it and

00:13:16 --> 00:13:18

you say, well, you know, I am Muslim,

00:13:18 --> 00:13:19

alhamdulillah, and I am going to be reciting

00:13:19 --> 00:13:20

Quran all the time.

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

From the minute I jump off the plane,

00:13:23 --> 00:13:25

I will say, Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim, Alhamdulillah, Rabbil

00:13:25 --> 00:13:26

Alameen, and so on.

00:13:28 --> 00:13:29

So I don't need a parachute.

00:13:31 --> 00:13:32

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala will make me

00:13:32 --> 00:13:35

land safely, nothing will happen to me.

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

Right?

00:13:37 --> 00:13:40

Now, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala has the

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

power to do this if He wants.

00:13:41 --> 00:13:43

We are not denying the khudrat of Allah.

00:13:45 --> 00:13:47

We are not denying the khudrat of Allah,

00:13:47 --> 00:13:48

but what is the sunnat of Allah?

00:13:49 --> 00:13:50

What is likely to happen?

00:13:52 --> 00:13:54

Almost 100% of the times, you will

00:13:54 --> 00:13:56

die reciting the Quran, that's it.

00:13:58 --> 00:13:58

That's it.

00:13:59 --> 00:14:01

And Allah knows whether that death is halal

00:14:01 --> 00:14:02

or haram because you literally commit suicide.

00:14:02 --> 00:14:04

You know you are supposed to have a

00:14:04 --> 00:14:05

parachute and pull it.

00:14:05 --> 00:14:06

You don't do that.

00:14:06 --> 00:14:07

And you say, I'm reciting Quran.

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

Well, you die reciting Quran, but you jumped

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

out of the plane.

00:14:10 --> 00:14:12

So whether it's suicide or not, Allah knows

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

best.

00:14:12 --> 00:14:15

But point is that reciting Quran won't help

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

you.

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

Being Muslim won't help you.

00:14:17 --> 00:14:19

Nothing will help you because the law of

00:14:19 --> 00:14:21

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala enforced at the

00:14:21 --> 00:14:23

time is the law of gravity.

00:14:23 --> 00:14:25

That law is also made by Allah Subhanahu

00:14:25 --> 00:14:26

Wa Ta'ala Jalla Jalaluhu.

00:14:27 --> 00:14:28

And if you don't follow the law, you

00:14:28 --> 00:14:29

will suffer.

00:14:32 --> 00:14:34

This is what the Rabbi Alayhi Salaam came

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

to teach us.

00:14:34 --> 00:14:36

He came to teach us the laws which

00:14:36 --> 00:14:38

are above these laws, which are the laws

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

of the Akhira.

00:14:41 --> 00:14:43

And he came to teach us what is

00:14:43 --> 00:14:45

halal and what is haram on the face

00:14:45 --> 00:14:47

of it, two kinds of food.

00:14:49 --> 00:14:53

The same chicken, one which is Zabiha, which

00:14:53 --> 00:14:56

is slaughtered in the correct way, hand slaughtered

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

saying Bismillah.

00:14:58 --> 00:15:00

And the other one, somebody chopped its head

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

off or something or it got cut by

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

a machine, whatnot.

00:15:04 --> 00:15:05

No difference.

00:15:05 --> 00:15:06

By looking at it, this is meat, this

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

is meat.

00:15:07 --> 00:15:08

This is chicken, this is chicken.

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

One is not pork and the other one

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

is not chicken.

00:15:10 --> 00:15:11

Same chicken.

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

But one is halal, one is haram.

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

Why?

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

Because Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala made the

00:15:17 --> 00:15:18

rule.

00:15:22 --> 00:15:24

I'm giving you only one example, but all

00:15:24 --> 00:15:26

of the examples of the rules of Allah

00:15:26 --> 00:15:27

Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, on the face of

00:15:27 --> 00:15:29

it, there is no difference between this and

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

that, except that in one, there is the

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

Rida of Allah, there is the Nur of

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

Allah.

00:15:34 --> 00:15:37

In the other one, there is the Ghadab

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

of Allah.

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

May Allah protect us from that.

00:15:44 --> 00:15:48

And this comes when we learn the Deen

00:15:48 --> 00:15:50

with the Adab that is required of it.

00:15:51 --> 00:15:53

Because the Adab of learning is part of

00:15:53 --> 00:15:54

the rules.

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

That is also a law.

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

That you will get knowledge if you approach

00:15:58 --> 00:15:59

it with Adab.

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

You will not get knowledge if you approach

00:16:02 --> 00:16:03

it without Adab.

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

Because Adab means that there is a certain

00:16:10 --> 00:16:13

concentration, there is a certain feeling of need,

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

there is a certain feeling of that I

00:16:14 --> 00:16:15

am in need of this knowledge.

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

So I come there, I sit there with

00:16:18 --> 00:16:21

respect and I pay attention and I try

00:16:21 --> 00:16:23

to remember and recall and I try to

00:16:23 --> 00:16:25

take some notes and then I go with

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

the intention of applying it in my life.

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

That's the whole point of learning.

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

The whole point of learning is not simply

00:16:30 --> 00:16:32

to listen and go away, but to listen

00:16:32 --> 00:16:35

and to apply it in our lives.

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

No matter how small.

00:16:38 --> 00:16:40

In the whole lecture, if you just pick

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

up one small thing and apply it, Alhamdulillah,

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

this is good.

00:16:44 --> 00:16:46

That is the Adab of learning.

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

So I remind myself and you and I

00:16:49 --> 00:16:51

will end with this, which is that let

00:16:51 --> 00:16:54

us focus on the fact that just like

00:16:54 --> 00:16:58

the law of gravity or whatever, Allah subhanahu

00:16:58 --> 00:17:00

wa ta'ala made the laws and if

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

you are in the purview of that law

00:17:02 --> 00:17:06

to survive and to benefit and to take

00:17:06 --> 00:17:08

advantage, you have to follow the law.

00:17:09 --> 00:17:11

And so also the law of learning, which

00:17:11 --> 00:17:14

is that learning comes only when it is

00:17:14 --> 00:17:16

approached with Adab.

00:17:18 --> 00:17:23

And that is why the Salafi Salihin, our

00:17:23 --> 00:17:27

scholars, they understood this and they approached it

00:17:27 --> 00:17:29

in that way and they got what Allah

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

gave them.

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

We ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to

00:17:33 --> 00:17:35

help us to approach the Deen with the

00:17:35 --> 00:17:37

Adab that is due for this Deen.

00:17:37 --> 00:17:38

We ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to

00:17:38 --> 00:17:39

accept it from us.

00:17:39 --> 00:17:40

We ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to

00:17:40 --> 00:17:41

make it easy for us.

00:17:41 --> 00:17:42

We ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to

00:17:42 --> 00:17:45

open our hearts to His Nur and to

00:17:45 --> 00:17:46

His Khair and Barakah and to fill our

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

lives with that.
