This is the 3rd lecture
on the topic, the place of Rasulullah
in Islam.
I ask Allah
to help us to understand
the exalted position of the Rasulullah, alayhis salam,
in Islam and in our lives
and to benefit from that and
enable our lives to be filled
with and
All knowledge begins with Adam,
an attitude of respect for knowledge and everything
and everyone related to it.
Adam is like the preparation of the soil
for planting.
Without preparation, the best seed will perish.
So also with knowledge,
especially in the knowledge of Islam.
Without other, we may get the words, but
never the noor, the light, the meaning, the
understanding,
leading to the possibility of transformation
of our lives.
Do not proceed in any matter
before
a decree from Allah and his messenger Sallallahu
Alaihi Wasallam. Allah Subhana Wa Ta'la a little
translation and I said, Do not put yourself
ahead of.
So don't take a step. Don't walk in
front of.
So do not proceed in any matter before
a decree
from Allah and his messenger
and fear Allah, and surely Allah is all
hearing, all knowing, oh believers.
Do not raise your voices above the voice
of the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu
Alaihi Wasallam
nor speak loudly to him as you do
to one another
or your deeds will become
null and void
while you are unaware.
Your deeds will be wiped out.
In our context,
since Rasool Allah
is not with us, this means that in
any matter,
we refer to the Quran and Surah for
a ruling,
and when we come across a text, we
don't contradict it with our opinions,
but accept the text with full submission.
It means that we don't disregard or ignore
what Rasulullah,
alaihi salam, may have decreed
and don't use our selfish desires
to contradict that.
That is the meaning
of raising your voice over the voice
of the Rasul, alayhis salam, and putting yourself
ahead of Allah and his Rasul.
The punishment for that is complete wiping out
of all deeds.
Imagine how terrible it would be
that we spend our whole life
doing all kinds of good deeds and acts
of worship
and charity,
but because of loose talk and disrespect
towards Rasulullah,
it is all wiped out, and we have
nothing when we meet Allah
That is the reason why the Persian
poet, he said,
He said, be careful. He said, with Allah,
Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, you can be,
you can say whatever you like, but with
Rasool
Allah, he said, be very careful.
In our so called worldly matters where we
feel free to decide any way we want,
whichever way it suits us,
Allah
specifically
commands
us to obey the Quran and the
Allah and obey
the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
and those in authority among
you, but if you disagree on anything,
then refer it back to Allah
and His Messenger. If you truly believe in
Allah in the last day,
this is the best
and fairest
resolution.
This is one of the many ayats, one
of the many ayats which remind us
that this life
is really the preparation
for the Akhirah.
It shows us that no aspect of our
lives is outside the purview of Islam
and that everything we say
and and or do
has the potential to take us to Jannah
provided we do it
as Rasulullah
did it. And that is why it is
so important
to study
and follow the sera.
The big danger is when we are tempted
to say, in my opinion, when we are
faced with an ayah of the
Quran
or a Sahih Hadith of Rasulullah
make a stefar and seek Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala's protection
from shaitan when such a thought comes
and never say that, because in my opinion
is the door to disaster. It is a
door to Jahannam.
There is no place for any contradictory
personal opinion when we have a text, the
Quran or the Sunnah.
This is the fundamental rule in Islam. I
advised myself and you to be very careful
with our language.
We enter this deen by saying some words.
It is equally easy to leave the religion
if we say the wrong words.
So let's think and weigh our words before
we speak.
Ask yourself, why Allah
emphasized
the messengership of Rasulullah
so much and so many times?
If he was merely a
postman, as some people like to say. Let
me assure you that to show the slightest
disrespect
to Rasulullah
by using terms with that are not suitable
to his exalted rank
or to make fun of him or criticize
him or denigrate his importance
is not only a sign of gross ignorance,
but kufr and takes one out of Islam.
Allah
we were only joking. We were talking idly.
Say to them, was it Allah
and his revelations
and his messenger
that you ridiculed, that you were making fun
of? Make no excuse.
You have committed kufur. You have lost faith.
You have gone out of Islam after your
belief.
If we pardon a group of you, we
will certainly punish others for their wickedness,
meaning that those who seek pardon will be
pardoned, but it is possible that some of
them,
even after seeking pardon, will not be pardoned
as we know from the Ayat of Suratul
Tawba with respect to the. Allah
warned us about people who make fun of
Rasulullah
who ridicule Allah
and his promises and his messenger. Allah said
Allah
warned us about people like this, and he
told us what to do. He said, he,
has already revealed to you in the book
that when you hear Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala's
revelations
being denied or ridiculed,
then do not sit in that company unless
they engage in a different topic or else
you will be counted with them. You will
be like them.
Surely, our most
will gather the hypocrites and disbelievers altogether
in Jahannam, in the hellfire.
For those who want to separate the messenger
of Allah from
Allah
and say that they accept the Quran, but
don't accept aayat in the Quran itself, which
emphasize the importance of following the sunnah
and obeying Rasool Allah, he
said,
Allah
and his messengers
and wish to make a distinction
between Allah
and his messengers saying, we believe in some
and we disbelieve in others
desiring to forge a compromise.
They are indeed the true disbelievers,
and we have prepared for disbelievers
a humiliating
punishment.
Allah
declared,
Rasulullah to be the last and final messenger
and the seal of the prophets.
For those who love and respect Rasulullah
and
are keen to obey and follow him, Allah
promised
great goodness.
Allah
said
which means
they are the ones who follow the Messenger
the unlettered Prophet
whose description they find in
the Torah and the Gospel.
He commands them to do and forbids them.
He commands them to do good and forbids
them
from
evil, and permits them what is lawful, and
forbids them
what is impure,
and relieves them from their burdens
and the shackles that bind them.
Only those who believe in him honor him
and support him. Only those who believe in
the prophet Muhammad,
and honor him and support him and follow
the light sent down to him will be
successful.
Say, O Prophet,
O humanity,
I am Allah's Messenger to you all. To
him alone belongs the kingdom of the heavens
and the earth. There is no God worthy
of worship except Him. He gives life and
causes death, so believe in Allah and His
messenger, the unlettered prophet who believes in Allah
and His revelations,
and follow him so that you may be
guided.
My brothers and sisters,
today,
in conclusion, I want to say to you
that today the root of our problems
lies in not following the Quran and Sunnah.
The
Quran orders us to follow the Sunnah because
the Sunnah explains the Quran.
When we don't do this, we lose confidence
in our deen and run around fearfully apologetic
trying to be what we are not. Those
who lose their identity
are left with nothing
because they lost what they had, and what
others have can never be theirs no matter
how much they pretend.
To be confident in your own identity
and to meet others in their own identities
respectfully and with understanding
is the secret of effective relationships.
Allah honored us by connecting our identity to
the blessed and exalted identity of Rasool
Musa. May
Allah help us to understand this and uphold
it and be called by it when we
meet him.
