Salam Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
Bismillah Alhamdulillah wa Salatu was Salam ala Rasulillah while
earlier he was so happy woman Allah
Allah mufti, my Samia alumina lithic Rick,
Oh Allah, open the hearing channels of our hearts, to your
remembrance and to your words
and allow them to have an impact on our hearts and on our lives
on our actions and make this encounter weighty on the scales on
the Day of Judgment, I mean
the surah we are going to be talking about today is surah
number 93 Surah of the heart
now after all of these promises, will a sofa your D God Abu Qatada
and we will give you soon that which will please you?
You know what Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam is concern
is after all of these promises as narrated in Hadith.
He said, How can I be satisfied? If there is even one of my own
mind? Johanna?
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar. Allah.
How can I be pleased? Yeah, Allah. If even one person who said lai
lai la alum from other rasool Allah is in jahannam.
Then Allah subhanaw taala will say to him on that day, yeah, Muhammad
Sallallahu Listen, that they go and take out from Johanna anyone
who for one moment in their life believed.
The Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam also said
to his companions, one day he said, My life and living with you
is good for you.
And then he said something very strange. And my death and my dying
is good for you.
So the Sahaba said, era surah Allah, we understand that you are
living with us, it's good for us, but how can you get to be good for
us? We will be devastated Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam
said while I'm alive, as problems and questions arise, I am here to
help and clarify them for you.
And after I die, in my birthday, in my intermediate realm of
existence, Allah will convey your deeds to me.
If they are good, I will be happy and I will do hand to Allah for
you.
And if they are not,
then I will ask forgiveness from Allah for your sins.
Subhan Allah Allah.
This is my Rasul, this is your Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam,
we have to understand who He was
then Allah subhanaw taala says
hola me Jitka ye Tieman for our
alum year Jitka ye Tieman for our alum, did
he not Jidoka did he not find you an orphan or Muhammad sallallahu
alayhi salam and gave you refuge and shelter
and there are many Iots as you know, they start with LM alumna,
SRA Halacha, Sadhak, LM Tara kafer. Again here, alum, Yoji,
DECA
our for our our means to give shelter. Now this alum that in the
beginning is called is stiff ham. It's a question. So this asking a
question. But lum means it's a negation of the past. So in other
words,
is it not? So it's it's a style? It's it is in question format?
It's a question, but it is not really a question. It's an
eloquent style in the Quran to bring attention to the fact of
something. So in other words,
do you not see the proof of all of this in your life? Allah subhanaw
taala is asking Rasulullah Salallahu Salam, Allah midgets go
look at this. Did he not find you? Allah find you as an orphan and
give you shelter? Reflect on your present life? Salallahu Salam, and
on your path
asked
that you were orphaned before you were born.
You will orphan before you were born.
Then at the age of six, you will orphaned again you lost your
mother. Then at the age of eight, you were orphaned again, your
caretaker, your grandfather Abdulmutallab died.
All of these things happen to you, don't you remember? That? How can
you even think that he subhanaw taala
can ever forsake you or he hates you? Because even as an orphan
child, before he charged you with prophethood, he sheltered and
protected you. Therefore, how could he have abandoned you now?
Oh prophets of Allah is when you are a messenger and the Prophet
Baba Jeddah cow doll learn for her.
And did he not find you doll learn for hada unaware, searching Bollen
has many meanings.
In this case, what is meant is someone who is searching someone
who is lost, he's looking for something, did you not find you
sort of lost and searching unaware of the details of the right way
the right path, which is the Quran and the Sharia and the
prophethood. And
for hada, and he guided you.
Allah subhanaw taala is reminding him because the Prophet sallallahu
lism was always protected even before prophet hood, from Sheikh
and evil Allah subhanaw taala because of his reality from before
creation, He sallallahu alayhi salam was always a believer
interfaith but he did not know the path of Islam the details of the
Sharia its rulings and teachings. It had not been revealed to him in
this world.
He did not like and he did not accept the beliefs and concepts
and the practices of Jamelia.
But he could not find a clear and suitable way out. He was searching
for the clear way
of truth. But he couldn't find it in Jamelia, he couldn't find it
among the People of the Book, who had adulterated their beliefs and
distorted the way and had gone astray.
So Allah smart Allah saying, you are in that state of spiritual
uncertainty looking. And Allah guided you through his revelation
to the life of Islam. And Allah established a special bond between
him and you and granted you that special status.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam was taught things that were
not known to anyone else of the Hereafter of the earlier events
and many things that were not known at all.
In the next aisle, we're we're Jeddah, Elan Avena and did he not
find you at Elan means needy, dependent poor for Elena and he
enriched you with self sufficiency and independence?
Elon, you know the word we say hi Illa which means family but what
it actually means Allah means your dependents because the children
are dependent. So, when we say that we as human beings are a
Allah, Allah, sometimes it gets translated,
translated as family of Allah, it's not that the correct
translation would be dependence of Allah. So, here Allah subhanaw
taala is using this word that did we not find you needy and
dependent and we gave you a winner. Our winner for Elena means
self sufficiency in a way that is beyond what we normally consider
as wealth, material wealth. It is a spiritual self sufficiency, it's
contentment, that is the real wealth as the Prophet sallallahu
Sallam taught us that a person can have a lot and still not content
whereas someone may have very little and Allah has given him
contentment, contentment or Cana, which is the real wealth. So Allah
give granted Rasulullah sallallahu Salallahu Alaihe Salam when out of
his knifes and thereby when you are self sufficient, you don't
look to anyone else for your needs. So you are free from all
needs.
Excuse me.
So Allah subhanaw taala
have liberated him SallAllahu Sallam of all needs from
everything and everyone other than Allah. So therefore, he feared
none other than Allah. He needed none other than Allah. He asked
none other than Allah. He never felt poor,
even when he had nothing
in that state he would borrow, to give to others.
And then interestingly, when he returned what he had borrowed, he
would many times give more than what he had borrowed.
Return
with
an extra gift. Now, I don't want you to confuse this with rebar,
there is a difference. This is a noble thing to do, as an act of
appreciation, riba when you return more, because that is the
precondition that is part of the stipulation on the contract that
you are going to return this, there is no contract here. The
contract is to return what you took, but then you do generosity
and you show gratitude by returning more and he did that
many times.
Allah subhanaw taala besides enriching him spiritually, also
enriched him in a worldly sense, through his marriage to our mother
Hadiya are the Allahu anha orba. And later on, in the prophet hood,
through all that came in, through in the form of Vanina,
the booty of war, the spoils of war.
So in this ayah in summary, Allah subhanaw taala is saying to him,
salallahu Alaihe Salam that look at all these situations of Orth be
orphanhood of poverty, of being lost and looking for for for
guidance. Look at all of this that Allah subhanaw taala who removed
all of these challenges from you will also take away difficulties
from you in the future.
Hola Swan tele says
em Melia tema fala. Dukkha means therefore, as a consequence of all
of these favors.
Emelia tema, fala occur. Therefore do not wrong by treating the
orphan with harshness and overwhelming oppression. Dochart
is from Cara kaha remains to overpower too overwhelmed to
subdue Allah subhanaw taala saying, Do not be harsh, do not be
cruel, do not be overpowering, with the powerless signified by
the orphan.
Treat him treat the orphans with honor and dignity, just like you
would like your own child to be treated after you.
And the general application of this idea is that you must treat
everyone kindly and honorably, especially those who are weak and
deprived.
The Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam in a famous famous Hadith, he said
the meaning of which is that I am the Kafeel of an orphan the one
who takes responsibility of an orphan has attained filled Jana
will be like this in Jana, this the index finger and the middle
finger joint that the person who takes care of an orphan brings
them up to the age of maturity in a good way. The reward of that is
this closer companionship to Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi
Salaam in Jannah
Subhan Allah what what an incentive
what M Miss Illa fella
and the sa il cyl is one Salah means to ask the one who asked for
law turn her means don't drive him away, repel him harshly be harsh
with him. Someone who comes asking someone who's a beggar
no matter what they're asking for. Give him what you can and This
especially applies for us who come from some of those
poor countries where you have hundreds of beggars and little
they come after you and you get annoyed and you you you harshly
turn them away. And you say things like why don't you find a job and
things like that go work. And you know you look healthy and we say
harsh things. Just remember this is who I am Mr. Elf
Hola Tonhalle Allah subhanaw taala says anyone who asks, he's not
saying the one who deserves. He's saying the one who asks, don't be
harsh, and turn them away. Give them or give him what you can. And
if you don't have anything to give, like sometimes Rasulullah
sallallahu LysM did not have he borrowed if he couldn't, he would
turn them away with kind words.
Show mercy and kindness. There's an interesting Hadith the Prophet
salallahu Alaihe Salam said that we should pay attention to this,
that if a beggar comes to you, and you see on his wrist, to gold
bracelets,
give him what he's asking.
In another narration, he said, If you see a beggar coming, riding on
a horse, the person asking given
and this also applies not just for wealth, but those who come seeking
knowledge and spiritual guidance.
Because
we can't ridicule people who don't know who you're asking. You have
to give them, give them with wisdom, give them with kindness,
give them with gentleness with love, because they are also needy,
actually more needy than one who needs some money.
Because we have to remember that spiritually. We all belong to one
of these three classes that are mentioned here in one sense or
another. Either we are orphans spiritually, or we are victims of
poverty. We are so poor in our spirituality. Or we are
petitioners we asking you Allah, I need guidance. I need help.
Never turn them away.
What am I be now Matera beaker Fahad Allah subhanaw taala says,
and proclaim and talk about the Grace and Blessings of your Lord,
which is the prophethood the Quran and all other graces, spiritual,
worldly, emotional, psychological honor, praise Allah and mention
it, especially if it helps others.
The greatest namah that has been given is to be guided to the
truth, specially for us and at the time of Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi salam, who also lived in a sea of disbelief and corruption,
like many of us are living today.
So Allah subhanaw taala, after all of this reminds the Prophet
salallahu Alaihe Salam, that these are all favours from
all of these from before you were born before you are orphan today
and in the Hereafter, this is all Nam of Allah. So you must always
have gratitude of to your Lord and the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam
teaches us that one who does not thank for little things, will not
thank for big things too much. And one who does not thank people has
not thanked Allah. So when somebody does a favor to you, you
must always show gratitude to that person, because that's a form of
thanking Allah subhanaw taala
proclaiming the blessings of Allah subhanaw taala is a form of
thanks.
And not proclaiming them so oh no, I have nothing I'm poor. I'm this
and that
is actually
denial, which is also called
how I use the blessings of Allah subhanaw taala His favours is a
form
of showing Shuker of showing chakra chakra namah in showing
gratitude for his favors by using his favors in a way that he
subhanaw taala likes. And the opposite, which is abuse and
misuse of His favors, is the most assured means of losing those
favors.
Allah smart Allah is telling us here, share the favors, share the
knowledge, share the wisdom, share the wealth with others, he
Salallahu Alaihe Salam gave as we have said, when he had and he gave
when he did not have remember the story of the Bedouin, who came to
him after the Battle of Hunan and, and pulled on his jukebox left a
mark on his neck neck and roughly asked him Yeah, Muhammad, give me
from what Allah has given you. And the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam
did not turn him away. He said Give him give
Give him give him totally satisfied.
Many stories like that.
So help those who do not have something that you have, without
trying to keep it for yourself to maintain your superiority, whether
it's in wealth, whether it's in knowledge, share it at a personal
level, you know, at a national level at an international level, I
wish that, you know, we've all felt and our nations and leaders
did that, starting with ourselves with me.
The more privileged a person is, the greater the responsibility he
has.
Just remember, one of the names of Allah subhanaw taala is Al Karim,
the generous since Allah is Al Karim. He never takes as a Wali,
someone close to him.
One who is Buckley, who is stingy.
And the Prophet sallallahu sallam said in another narration that a
barbarian, who keeps for himself without sharing something will
never enter Jannah therefore, give and share, give and share, give
and share.
Now, there is an interesting question that arises,
if I proclaim I disclose all the favors of Allah subhanaw taala
well people can see, but especially if Allah has given me
some spiritual favors,
will that not subject me to
RIA or to ostentation and overall delusion? I start telling people
you know, I had this experience, I know this, I know that Allah has
given me this knowledge. And if we are not mature enough, sometimes
it may give you that feeling. And therefore the question arises,
where is the balance? Should you hide the blessings of Allah? Or
should you show them so some of the scholars have said that for
the seeker the muddied
the better position is what is called honeymoon or to keep it
hidden
and concealed that is best and safest, because then you're not
subjected to RIA ostentation.
And for the ones who have arrived who have taken out from their
hearts, all of those feelings have reached a certain station on my
palm. Sometimes it is better for them to do is hard to tell them
because by hearing that Allah still helps people in need and
does special favors. It strengthens other people and says,
you know, gives them more hope.
And it is said that those who have true have beloved for Allah
subhanaw taala, it doesn't matter whether the show or whether they
conceal it doesn't it's immaterial to them, because they are unaware
of what people see and think.
So at the end of the Surah, because that was dedicated to
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
With all of these reminders, the oats, the promises of the future,
and all of this, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam, the
response was, he said, Allahu Akbar.
And he instructed his followers
to repeat it when they heard Surah abohar When you finish, you would
say they would say Allahu Akbar.
So, that is the end of this very special and beautiful Surah
like many others, but it brings us closer and gives you a
greater feeling of intimacy with Rasul Allah salAllahu Alaihe
Salam, some idea of what his status is with Allah subhanaw
taala.
Now remember everything that we have reminded each other what was
addressed Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam is also addressed to
us.
Of the generosity of sharing of praising Allah Samantha of
thanking of having full trust in Allah, knowing His promises that
was to come is going to be better. So I learned all of this to change
myself not to change others, we remind others but the first person
that needs the reminder is me. I learn not to change the world
outside, but I learn to change my inner world. If I do that, then I
see everything that happens around no matter what catastrophe comes
like we are in in a different light with the lens of a
collarbone Salim heart. That's a piece that's true.
ankle that has stuck with absolute trust and knows that whatever is
going to come here
is going to be better than hola what is best. So may Allah
subhanaw taala also
give us this level of strength and European and Tawakkol and give us
those actions that please Him, continue to bless us with His
favors. And help us to actualize, internalize and reflect on these
beautiful words and walk
in the footsteps of Rasulullah Salallahu Alaihe Salam of what he
was going through what this surah mentioned to him.
And then when we do that, naturally we will say, Allahu
Akbar. And Allah, of course is Akbar.
We ask Allah Subhana Allah to accept this from us and to
increase our humble love for Allah subhanaw taala and His Messenger
sallallahu alayhi salam and his noble family and his descendants
and love for this Deen in the love for the Amara sort of lesser
analysis
of whom he wouldn't be satisfied, if even one was ingen
Some may Allah subhanaw taala put that love and concern in us. May
Allah subhanaw taala bless you all keep you all safe in sha Allah.
And
we will talk about any questions and clarifications
