and Iraq a mercy for us and make it evidence in our favor on the

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

Day of Judgment.

00:01:39 --> 00:01:44

So continuing with Surah Al Madatha, as you will recall, and

00:01:44 --> 00:01:47

for the new people who are coming to the end joining us may Allah

00:01:47 --> 00:01:48

subhanaw taala

00:01:50 --> 00:01:54

increase you in your dedication. This is from one of the earliest

00:01:54 --> 00:01:59

revelation in the early makan period, in fact, is this by the

00:01:59 --> 00:02:03

majority of Mufasa on the second Revelation After Accra.

00:02:04 --> 00:02:09

And we should always relate what we are reading to the happy comedy

00:02:09 --> 00:02:13

or to the Syrah of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam, think of

00:02:13 --> 00:02:18

the environment where this descended. Think of what was going

00:02:18 --> 00:02:21

on what Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam was going through

00:02:21 --> 00:02:23

what the early Muslims were going through.

00:02:25 --> 00:02:29

And just think that in that backdrop, they were being

00:02:29 --> 00:02:31

persecuted, they were being

00:02:32 --> 00:02:37

tortured, there was resistance and obstruction to the propagation of

00:02:37 --> 00:02:43

this message. And Allah's Kalam would descend in real time to

00:02:43 --> 00:02:48

guide them to strengthen them. And therefore it would refresh them in

00:02:48 --> 00:02:53

their zest to be muslims in spite of all the resistance that they

00:02:53 --> 00:02:59

were. They were facing. And it's relevant to us today, especially

00:02:59 --> 00:03:04

for those who live in Muslim minority countries. That whenever

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

you feel that you are being persecuted, or there is difficulty

00:03:08 --> 00:03:12

in following your religion, go back to the early marking period

00:03:12 --> 00:03:17

of what our predecessors went through, and what Surahs and which

00:03:17 --> 00:03:19

is came down to strengthen them.

00:03:20 --> 00:03:25

So always remember that bargara Now Allah subhanaw taala fast

00:03:25 --> 00:03:28

forward in time for us. There is no time for Allah subhanaw taala

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

says about a Sabol Yameen Who are these people who made the right

00:03:31 --> 00:03:36

choices? Now he's taking them into paradise? He says Feagin nothing

00:03:36 --> 00:03:40

yet a set a loan that there will be in Jannette in guard we

00:03:40 --> 00:03:45

translated as gardens but gardens don't reflect what Jana is okay.

00:03:46 --> 00:03:49

Paradise. Let's leave it at that. Okay. Because there's nothing here

00:03:49 --> 00:03:53

that we can see that we can imagine that we've heard of that

00:03:53 --> 00:03:57

comes even close to Jana, the Prophet sallallahu sallam said

00:03:57 --> 00:04:01

Jana has what no years I've heard what noise I've seen no mind can

00:04:01 --> 00:04:06

even imagine. Okay, but there are some descriptions given there may

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

be some resemblance, because gardens beautify so you will be in

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

beautiful surrounding Jannette because they're in plural, every

00:04:13 --> 00:04:17

everyone has their own, just like we have properties of your own.

00:04:17 --> 00:04:21

Okay? But they're not limited by by time because we live our

00:04:21 --> 00:04:24

houses. Even if you don't live it, we don't sell it one day we are

00:04:24 --> 00:04:25

taken out of it.

00:04:27 --> 00:04:30

So we're limited by time and we're limited by space. In general,

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

there is no limitation of time because it's eternal, or space

00:04:34 --> 00:04:38

because there is no limitation of space, it's a different dimension.

00:04:39 --> 00:04:42

So Allah subhanaw taala, saying this believers who enter who

00:04:42 --> 00:04:47

submitted who can make the right choices, will be facing each other

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

in their Jannette in the Paradises.

00:04:51 --> 00:04:55

And yet the sat alone they will have a conversation Allah is

00:04:55 --> 00:04:59

telling us this, today of what will happen they will ask each

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

other

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

Hi, I'm Al Majid, a Marine, Anil Moogerah mean they will talk to

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

each other ask each other about the MoodGYM. During is a crime

00:05:11 --> 00:05:14

Moogerah mean about the criminals?

00:05:17 --> 00:05:21

What's a criminal? One who breaks the law,

00:05:23 --> 00:05:28

the Divine Law, the Law of right and wrong, the law of rights of

00:05:28 --> 00:05:34

people violating the rights of people, these Allah calls majority

00:05:34 --> 00:05:38

mean so they will ask each other, you know, we are here, but very

00:05:38 --> 00:05:40

soon. So, the ones who rejected

00:05:41 --> 00:05:46

then Allah subhanaw taala will give them in that direction the

00:05:46 --> 00:05:51

ability to ask the people of Ghana a conversation between the people

00:05:51 --> 00:05:56

of Ghana and the people of Ghana taking place and they will say ma

00:05:56 --> 00:05:58

Celica Confiserie

00:05:59 --> 00:06:05

what was it that inserted you that forced you into Gen?

00:06:07 --> 00:06:12

Silica mean something that's just forced and inserted what what how

00:06:12 --> 00:06:17

is it that you were thrown and pushed thrust into Gen, not even

00:06:17 --> 00:06:20

gently you are thrust into Gen. So they will ask and there are many

00:06:20 --> 00:06:24

conversations in the Quran between people of Jana and people of NA,

00:06:24 --> 00:06:27

such as they will say, some of them will say can you give us some

00:06:27 --> 00:06:28

water

00:06:29 --> 00:06:32

and things like that there are multiple occasions here. They will

00:06:32 --> 00:06:38

ask them, essentially, what was your crime? Because you are

00:06:38 --> 00:06:42

Muslim? What was the crime that led you to Jana?

00:06:46 --> 00:06:51

Kalu or listen very carefully, they will say Lemna, criminal

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

mousseline, my crime.

00:06:55 --> 00:06:59

Number one, and imagine them saying this, what kind of

00:06:59 --> 00:07:04

humiliation what kind of shame what kind of suffering these

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

people would be going through, and they will with guilt say to the

00:07:08 --> 00:07:12

people of Ghana, I was not among those who prayed.

00:07:16 --> 00:07:22

I was not among the mousseline. So warning for us Muslims also

00:07:27 --> 00:07:32

people who did not pray. Now think of the one has a last month Allah

00:07:32 --> 00:07:36

mentioned the previous Surah who did not only pray but did not

00:07:36 --> 00:07:40

allow others to pray. You heard who said alright and let the IANA

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

burden

00:07:42 --> 00:07:46

either Salah who stopped a slave of Allah rasool Allah from praying

00:07:46 --> 00:07:49

when he want you to pray. Not only did he not pray, but he stopped

00:07:49 --> 00:07:50

others.

00:07:52 --> 00:07:57

Not praying is a crime with Allah. Skipping salah is a crime with

00:07:57 --> 00:07:58

Allah.

00:07:59 --> 00:08:04

Delaying Salah on purpose is a crime with Allah, lack of taharah

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

to perform salah is a crime with Allah,

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

not observing the Arcann the essential pillars of Islam of

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

Salah the fluoride is a crime with Allah.

00:08:16 --> 00:08:21

Because salah represents the head of Islam, it is the symbol of

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

faith.

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

Now Allah Subhana Allah has given a special special specific

00:08:26 --> 00:08:32

designation to people he's called them Musa lane. Elsewhere he calls

00:08:32 --> 00:08:38

people saw a moon. Every Muslim fast every Muslim prays, but he

00:08:38 --> 00:08:42

has specified them which means something else so who is among the

00:08:42 --> 00:08:47

Tsar imune not the ones who just pray Ramadan because that's the

00:08:47 --> 00:08:51

minimum requirement. These are people who love to fast who did a

00:08:51 --> 00:08:56

lot of fast continuously extra fast, every opportunity to fast in

00:08:56 --> 00:09:02

the fast of of short well the fast have other fun and so on so forth

00:09:02 --> 00:09:06

of Ashura on Mondays and Thursdays and every other day found every

00:09:06 --> 00:09:07

excuse

00:09:08 --> 00:09:12

and continuously all the life they love to fast those are called

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

Simon

00:09:14 --> 00:09:15

who's calling mousseline

00:09:17 --> 00:09:21

the one who observed five Salah today that's the minimum

00:09:21 --> 00:09:22

requirement of Islam.

00:09:25 --> 00:09:28

So we have to look within ourself.

00:09:29 --> 00:09:34

What might Allah mean by this? What is my attitude to Salah Hi,

00:09:34 --> 00:09:38

maybe praying five times a day? Do I treat the Salah as a burden?

00:09:39 --> 00:09:43

Do I treat the salah just as an obligation okay, it's an

00:09:43 --> 00:09:44

obligation it's first I have to do it.

00:09:46 --> 00:09:48

Do I look forward to seller?

00:09:50 --> 00:09:53

Am I waiting anxiously for the next seller?

00:09:55 --> 00:09:58

Is the seller as Rasulullah sallallahu sallam said

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

Juliet curato Ayni fistula that the salah marked the pleasure of

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

my eyes has been made in Salah. insula, not after finishing salah.

00:10:11 --> 00:10:17

Then he said arachnophobia. Yeah, Bilal or Bilal, give us rest, give

00:10:17 --> 00:10:21

us the pleasure of rest, by what by calling a van. In other words,

00:10:21 --> 00:10:24

the Adhan will lead to Salah and that's what's going to give us the

00:10:24 --> 00:10:27

true rest. Do we have that attitude?

00:10:30 --> 00:10:36

Do we plan our life and program around salah? Or do we try and fix

00:10:36 --> 00:10:43

the line wherever we can attract convenience? So this and how

00:10:43 --> 00:10:47

properly do we fulfill the requirements of the Salah? Are we

00:10:47 --> 00:10:51

present yet absent in Salah in other words, my body is present my

00:10:51 --> 00:10:52

mind and my heart is elsewhere.

00:10:54 --> 00:10:59

So if we don't meet all of those, how much extra salary do I do? Do

00:10:59 --> 00:11:03

I look for any excuse extra? Let me do some no acid. I think if you

00:11:03 --> 00:11:10

meet all of those criteria, then hamdulillah inshallah you are an I

00:11:10 --> 00:11:14

am among the most saline. Otherwise we'll make meeting the

00:11:14 --> 00:11:18

minimum requirements. But it's not to discount the minimum

00:11:18 --> 00:11:20

requirements. That's where it starts.

00:11:21 --> 00:11:25

We have to first make sure that we properly meet the minimum

00:11:25 --> 00:11:28

requirements. So first crime

00:11:29 --> 00:11:34

we lum nakoma criminal mousseline, we will not among those second

00:11:34 --> 00:11:35

crime

00:11:36 --> 00:11:41

wallum naku, not Mr. miskeen and we will not among those who fed

00:11:41 --> 00:11:42

the poor and the needy

00:11:47 --> 00:11:52

we took a lot of food in our plate ate some through the rest.

00:11:54 --> 00:11:56

When people were starving elsewhere

00:11:58 --> 00:12:04

as individuals as families as communities as nations we produced

00:12:05 --> 00:12:10

but we threw it in the ocean to raise the prices of grain. This is

00:12:10 --> 00:12:11

all been done.

00:12:13 --> 00:12:17

People were starving. We burnt the crops

00:12:21 --> 00:12:23

so lesson for us.

00:12:26 --> 00:12:31

Anytime you know of the needy, the deprived and neglected, we have

00:12:31 --> 00:12:36

duties towards them as individuals as communities. Never waste food.

00:12:36 --> 00:12:40

Never waste resources because it's for all of the bad of Allah

00:12:40 --> 00:12:41

subhanaw taala.

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

This is a crime with Allah.

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

What do we learn from this when Allah gives us more?

00:12:53 --> 00:12:55

Do we increase our standard of living?

00:12:56 --> 00:13:01

Or do we increase our standard of giving? Somebody sent this today?

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

Okay.

00:13:04 --> 00:13:09

Do we when Allah gives us more? Do we increase our standard of living

00:13:09 --> 00:13:14

higher level of luxury? Or our level of giving to others? Let me

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

share it's more than my needs.

00:13:18 --> 00:13:22

Did we show generosity only to the rich exchanging expensive gifts

00:13:23 --> 00:13:26

you give me expensive give me I'll give you a more expensive gift and

00:13:26 --> 00:13:27

neglected the poor

00:13:29 --> 00:13:30

crime with Allah.

00:13:32 --> 00:13:38

Next confession, what can you do Malhotra in hired?

00:13:41 --> 00:13:47

means to rush into something for which you have no qualification.

00:13:50 --> 00:13:51

Specifically here

00:13:52 --> 00:13:59

talking, vain talk is translated what it really means is in every

00:13:59 --> 00:14:04

matter and particularly in matters of then we were rushing in into

00:14:04 --> 00:14:08

debates into giving opinions we readily embarked in areas where we

00:14:08 --> 00:14:10

had no expertise.

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

And we give verdicts and we give photography and we give opinions

00:14:14 --> 00:14:18

and matters without having eligibility, qualification

00:14:18 --> 00:14:23

authority or training to do that. Just like everything else, you

00:14:23 --> 00:14:26

know, in medicine, you never went to medical school, you don't start

00:14:26 --> 00:14:29

operating on people giving medicines. You know, you've never

00:14:29 --> 00:14:32

studied architecture and engineering you don't start

00:14:32 --> 00:14:35

building houses. You know, this is how it should be. But why do

00:14:35 --> 00:14:39

people take these liberties with the dean? How much Dean have we

00:14:39 --> 00:14:40

studied?

00:14:41 --> 00:14:45

So Allah subhanaw taala is telling us that this is a crime with Allah

00:14:45 --> 00:14:50

subhanaw taala THESE people who and where does this come from a

00:14:50 --> 00:14:56

sense of self delusion person thinks I am so smart. I can take

00:14:56 --> 00:14:59

this data and I can analyze it and I can synthesize it and I can come

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

up with can

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

allusions just like I love a lead

00:15:05 --> 00:15:08

same thing he looked at all the evidence and came up with the

00:15:08 --> 00:15:12

conclusion a false conclusion that this is the word of men this is

00:15:12 --> 00:15:18

this magic. So, we have to be very careful that we do not give free

00:15:18 --> 00:15:23

rein to our haha our inclination, our desires, and start

00:15:23 --> 00:15:26

interpreting things according to that, because we are fond of

00:15:26 --> 00:15:29

talking and talking, we have gotten used to that talk show and

00:15:29 --> 00:15:33

talk show and talk show everybody has to give an opinion. Whereas

00:15:33 --> 00:15:37

Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam taught us silence,

00:15:38 --> 00:15:41

who is most qualified to give opinions on these things, the

00:15:41 --> 00:15:43

Sahaba the Companions who live with Rasulullah sallallahu sallam,

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

across the board by and large 99.9% of the time, whenever

00:15:48 --> 00:15:51

they're asked about something, what did they say? Allah, Allah

00:15:51 --> 00:15:54

Rasool, Allah, Allah, Allah and those of us who know best

00:15:55 --> 00:15:57

Oba Cara, the lawn, who would know better.

00:15:59 --> 00:16:02

He said, How can I give an opinion which sky would shield me if I

00:16:02 --> 00:16:04

gave an opinion on which I had no right to give?

00:16:06 --> 00:16:07

This was the attitude

00:16:12 --> 00:16:14

that we did not think of the consequences of what we were

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

uttering and what we were indulging in.

00:16:18 --> 00:16:22

Not only was it useless, but outright harmful, but couldn't

00:16:22 --> 00:16:27

none who do Malhar is been we were among those who indulge in this

00:16:27 --> 00:16:31

among many people, because everybody else was doing it.

00:16:32 --> 00:16:34

Everybody had an opinion. So let me also give an opinion.

00:16:36 --> 00:16:40

So without authority without knowing without knowledge,

00:16:41 --> 00:16:44

safety for all of us is to be silent.

00:16:46 --> 00:16:48

If you have proofs and evidences you've learned something from a

00:16:48 --> 00:16:53

scholar something, you mentioned it acknowledging that this is from

00:16:53 --> 00:16:56

so and so like it was done that I took this translation from so and

00:16:56 --> 00:16:59

so I took this this is not my opinion. Okay.

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

So, that is crime number three, but couldn't look at the book your

00:17:06 --> 00:17:14

midday and remark, we were among those who denied. Who ridiculed,

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

who rejected the concept of the day of Suzanne Jezza.

00:17:21 --> 00:17:25

Your Medina dean of truth, the Dean of accountability, we

00:17:25 --> 00:17:29

rejected the Day of Judgment, which essentially means that we

00:17:29 --> 00:17:31

rejected the hereafter.

00:17:34 --> 00:17:38

Which is a core belief, the aka is a core belief of Islam,

00:17:39 --> 00:17:44

that we rejected that hereafter and accountability. And frequently

00:17:44 --> 00:17:48

we took this as a joke lightly, like people say, Oh, you really

00:17:48 --> 00:17:53

believe their guns? You really believe there's a fire up? Still,

00:17:53 --> 00:17:57

in today's age when we've come so far you believe in this? Or Has

00:17:57 --> 00:18:00

anybody ever come and told you that this is true? These are the

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

kinds of things you hear from educated people, unfortunately,

00:18:04 --> 00:18:10

sometimes Muslim, even joking about it, is the level of Kufa.

00:18:12 --> 00:18:17

Yeah, so they denied that core belief called the tales of

00:18:17 --> 00:18:19

ancients not to be taken seriously

00:18:21 --> 00:18:25

and stuck to the desires of what they saw around what they saw of

00:18:25 --> 00:18:28

this ephemeral world that's going to be destroyed.

00:18:29 --> 00:18:31

So this was our

00:18:32 --> 00:18:35

attitude for which we are in jahannam.

00:18:37 --> 00:18:43

couldn't look at the table below me then be denied that had a

00:18:43 --> 00:18:50

tonally Akin, till Alia Kane came to us what is your pain? Certainty

00:18:50 --> 00:18:51

certitude?

00:18:53 --> 00:18:57

What is the ultimate certainty ultimately akin Depth?

00:18:58 --> 00:19:02

Depth is the ultimate your pin. This is what is meant here, that

00:19:02 --> 00:19:07

we persisted in this attitude of ours, of rejecting prayer, of

00:19:07 --> 00:19:11

rejecting charity, of rejecting of giving our opinions and doing

00:19:11 --> 00:19:16

things and and rejecting the hereafter and we continued in that

00:19:16 --> 00:19:17

till that game.

00:19:21 --> 00:19:23

Till European game, why is that?

00:19:25 --> 00:19:26

considered your pain?

00:19:27 --> 00:19:34

Because even the atheist does not deny that he calls it a certainty

00:19:34 --> 00:19:35

death is certainty.

00:19:36 --> 00:19:39

Another way of looking at it, once a person dies,

00:19:40 --> 00:19:46

all the veils are removed. And there is no doubt there is no

00:19:46 --> 00:19:51

clever arguments. There are no debates. Everything is clear your

00:19:51 --> 00:19:56

pain certainty has gone. Yes, this is real. Yes, the punishment of

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

the grave is real. Yes, there is a day of judgment. Yes, there's a

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

fire

00:20:00 --> 00:20:04

So death brings that certainty. Allah is giving us a warning.

00:20:05 --> 00:20:11

Don't wait till that moment to get certainty have the opinion before

00:20:11 --> 00:20:15

your death comes. Because even

00:20:16 --> 00:20:21

the most evil of all of Allah's creation around the prototype fair

00:20:21 --> 00:20:21

around

00:20:23 --> 00:20:28

believed at the moment of his death. Even he has Allah subhanaw

00:20:28 --> 00:20:33

taala says when he was drowning, called Armin to unknown Allah

00:20:33 --> 00:20:37

Allah Illallah the eminent but he been ill well i nominal al

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

Muslimeen there is no god he's drawn if there is no God except

00:20:43 --> 00:20:48

the one that the Bani Israel believe in. And I have submitted.

00:20:50 --> 00:20:53

And as the Hadith said, Gibreel Allah Salam did not want Allah's

00:20:53 --> 00:20:57

forgiveness for him. So he stuffed the sand from the bottom of the

00:20:57 --> 00:21:00

ocean into his mouth, so he couldn't say it anymore. Because

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

he didn't want to take the chance that Allah's Mercy might even

00:21:03 --> 00:21:04

spare him there.

00:21:05 --> 00:21:08

So the point here is that when death comes, everybody believe

00:21:10 --> 00:21:13

but we don't want to be among those who believe at the time of

00:21:13 --> 00:21:17

death. Allah subhanaw taala as doors are always open, so Allah

00:21:17 --> 00:21:21

smart Allah is giving us the option to change now while we

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

still have a chance.

00:21:25 --> 00:21:28

Then Allah subhanaw taala says about these people who have given

00:21:28 --> 00:21:32

who have confessed all of this and said this is what we did. For

00:21:32 --> 00:21:37

Martin Fowler home chef out chef out to share thing Allah Swatara

00:21:37 --> 00:21:42

talks about the concept of Chef ah, Chef ah means intercession.

00:21:42 --> 00:21:45

This is something we can understand that even in this dunya

00:21:45 --> 00:21:49

we have peep for recommendations, you know, you want a job you get a

00:21:49 --> 00:21:52

recommendation from somebody, you know, he's good sometimes

00:21:52 --> 00:21:53

intercession you know,

00:21:54 --> 00:21:59

the not this one but his brother suppose his brother did something

00:21:59 --> 00:22:04

bad because this guy doesn't. Now, he goes to his uncle says, you

00:22:04 --> 00:22:07

know, tell my father you know, to forgive me, you know, I said tell

00:22:07 --> 00:22:12

him your son made a mistake. So this is called Shiva. Okay. We

00:22:12 --> 00:22:15

have the concept of that. Allah subhanaw taala has granted chakra

00:22:16 --> 00:22:17

in the Astra

00:22:19 --> 00:22:20

he doesn't need to.

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

But he did, why to honor some people. So among those are the

00:22:26 --> 00:22:30

Gambia and the greatest of all power of shefa has been given to

00:22:31 --> 00:22:34

the CEO the MBR rasool Allah Azza yogena Muhammad sallallahu alayhi

00:22:34 --> 00:22:39

wa sallam, the one who everyone will go to for Chef Ah, yeah,

00:22:39 --> 00:22:43

rasool Allah, intercede for me with ALLAH SubhanA. Allah has

00:22:43 --> 00:22:48

given to his Olia to his chosen people, at different levels of

00:22:48 --> 00:22:52

Shiva, the Quran has been given the power of Shiva

00:22:54 --> 00:22:58

surah baqarah and so Allah and Bran have been given your your

00:22:58 --> 00:23:03

fasting will be given the power to intercede Allah has OUT OF HIS

00:23:03 --> 00:23:06

WILL made intercession of this kind, permissible.

00:23:08 --> 00:23:11

A lot smarter Allah was going to do that for you anyway, but this

00:23:11 --> 00:23:14

way he honors someone who said Rasulullah sallallahu sallam said

00:23:14 --> 00:23:17

yeah Allah spare him and put him in Janus it okay because you say

00:23:17 --> 00:23:21

I'll do it. Okay to honor Rasul Allah said Allah so to honor a

00:23:21 --> 00:23:25

half is so you memorize my Quran, who do you want say take 10 from

00:23:25 --> 00:23:28

my family into Janus, okay, because you did this.

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

Okay.

00:23:31 --> 00:23:35

So ALLAH SubhanA, Allah has made rules of Shiva, they're under his

00:23:35 --> 00:23:40

control. Here he tells the chef is for the Muthana bone the sinners

00:23:40 --> 00:23:44

of this ummah, for the of the believers. He says, there are

00:23:44 --> 00:23:50

exclusions that for these people, no Shiva will be accept

00:23:51 --> 00:23:54

who died in the state if rasool Allah salAllahu Alaihe Salam

00:23:54 --> 00:24:00

stands in Shiva. Nope. They do not qualify for Shiva,

00:24:03 --> 00:24:04

eternally in Johanna.

00:24:05 --> 00:24:06

This is a very,

00:24:07 --> 00:24:15

very serious idea. For them, there is no then found there is no

00:24:15 --> 00:24:19

benefit for them. Of shafa from those who are qualified, who are

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

given the privilege of doing shuffle.

00:24:25 --> 00:24:30

It's too late. Then, too late for which people, for the people who

00:24:30 --> 00:24:34

ended up in the state who died in the state like we're talking about

00:24:34 --> 00:24:37

the ones who are in Jannah, who are confessing to all of these who

00:24:37 --> 00:24:41

died in disbelief who died and rejection is not too late for the

00:24:41 --> 00:24:46

Sillars because everyone is a sinner. Believers Allah subhanaw

00:24:46 --> 00:24:51

taala a Muslim can he sin is a khulumani Adam hotta every child

00:24:51 --> 00:24:54

of Adam is a sinner Will Ferrell Hotline at our booth. The best of

00:24:54 --> 00:24:58

the sinners are those who turn in Tober. Now a person may still come

00:24:58 --> 00:24:59

to the Day of Judgment with sin

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

that have not been cleaned. And Rasulullah sallallahu sallam said

00:25:05 --> 00:25:08

that this person deserves to be purified in the fire before going

00:25:08 --> 00:25:11

into Jannah Allah Subhana Allah has

00:25:12 --> 00:25:15

doesn't want to do that. He'd say, Yeah, Muhammad, what do you want?

00:25:15 --> 00:25:20

What decision Should I make for him? Yeah, so yeah Allah you don't

00:25:20 --> 00:25:23

need to burn him just send him straight. This is the shift.

00:25:24 --> 00:25:28

Now how about for the people who already going in Jana? The shefa

00:25:28 --> 00:25:31

will elevate the raja the levels higher yeah Allah granddam

00:25:31 --> 00:25:36

hydrogen, this is the Shiva that Allah Subhana Allah will permit

00:25:41 --> 00:25:42

Now

00:25:44 --> 00:25:46

next is

00:25:49 --> 00:25:53

Allah subhanaw taala says, From Allah home and it

00:25:54 --> 00:25:58

already, what is the matter with them that with this all this

00:25:58 --> 00:26:01

reminder and warning, they give their backs they turn away the

00:26:01 --> 00:26:04

reject turning the back in Arabic.

00:26:06 --> 00:26:09

On something means to give you back to something means you reject

00:26:09 --> 00:26:15

it. Okay? Allah subhanaw taala saying that, isn't it amazing that

00:26:15 --> 00:26:19

with all of these warnings and all of this evidence, they still

00:26:19 --> 00:26:20

reject this message.

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

And then Allah subhanaw taala gives a pictorial view of this he

00:26:30 --> 00:26:33

gives an example how are they turning away from this message?

00:26:33 --> 00:26:37

Can Nahum hamrun Mustang Farah,

00:26:38 --> 00:26:43

for red mean qaswarah that they are like wild donkeys, zebras or

00:26:43 --> 00:26:49

asses who see a predator like a lion or even a hunter Cassara is

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

also used for a hunter.

00:26:51 --> 00:26:55

They see something or a lion, and they run in every direction.

00:26:56 --> 00:27:00

Because they see they perceive this as a danger. They're running

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

form Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam and his message as if that is

00:27:05 --> 00:27:09

going to harm them. In other words, their thinking is so

00:27:09 --> 00:27:14

skewed. That what is going to be their salvation, what is going to

00:27:14 --> 00:27:16

be their guidance, what's going to save them

00:27:17 --> 00:27:20

they think is harmful for them. And what is going to be their

00:27:20 --> 00:27:25

destruction, the embrace and run towards and Rasulullah sallallahu

00:27:25 --> 00:27:29

Sallam gave an example of this in a hadith. He said my example and

00:27:29 --> 00:27:35

your example of the people is like a man who was sitting by a fire

00:27:35 --> 00:27:38

the fire has been lit in the dark.

00:27:39 --> 00:27:40

And

00:27:41 --> 00:27:46

because of the fire all the moths, the frosh moths when the CFI what

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

do they do?

00:27:48 --> 00:27:51

They all go towards the fire and what happens to them, they burn

00:27:52 --> 00:27:57

and finish that I am trying to move them over on the fire to save

00:27:57 --> 00:27:58

them.

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

But they perceive that they're coming from darkness and they see

00:28:03 --> 00:28:09

the fire is light that this is good for us. And it's not. So they

00:28:09 --> 00:28:12

don't know they're running and trying to save them or he said I

00:28:12 --> 00:28:16

am like that to you. I'm holding you by your waistband and I am

00:28:16 --> 00:28:19

pulling you you want to run into the fire. I'm trying to hold you

00:28:19 --> 00:28:25

back means the message I have brought is to save you. Okay, but

00:28:25 --> 00:28:29

you perceive that is a restriction you perceive that? No That looks

00:28:29 --> 00:28:33

good. But what you perceive with your skewed thinking is good is

00:28:33 --> 00:28:37

not good for you. What I'm calling you towards which you think

00:28:38 --> 00:28:41

is darkness is true light.

00:28:43 --> 00:28:44

So,

00:28:45 --> 00:28:50

Allah subhanaw taala says this is the matter with them, that they

00:28:50 --> 00:28:54

reject faith and religion because they find it too restricting for

00:28:54 --> 00:28:55

the knifes

00:28:58 --> 00:29:03

because the dean, the fates, sets limits

00:29:04 --> 00:29:07

doesn't give you free rein to do whatever you want and they want to

00:29:07 --> 00:29:13

do everything freely. Allah says pray that puts a restriction on

00:29:13 --> 00:29:15

you at this time I have to pray. Allah says you can drink alcohol

00:29:15 --> 00:29:18

that puts a restriction on you. You can't have resets you have to

00:29:18 --> 00:29:23

have Nika puts a restriction on you. You can't deal with interest

00:29:23 --> 00:29:27

that puts the restriction too many restrictions. But the Sharia of

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

Allah subhanaw taala every restriction is for your benefit is

00:29:32 --> 00:29:37

for your protection. Yet they do not understand that that every

00:29:37 --> 00:29:41

restraint in the Sharia is for your success and your happiness.

00:29:42 --> 00:29:48

So this is the attitude that they have. That's their inner way of

00:29:48 --> 00:29:52

thinking that they see light as darkness and they see darkness as

00:29:52 --> 00:29:52

light.

00:29:56 --> 00:29:58

Next Allah subhanaw taala says

00:29:59 --> 00:30:00

bye you

00:30:00 --> 00:30:07

The coulomb iminium a you so firm Munna Shara in spite of all of

00:30:07 --> 00:30:11

these attitudes, they are so deluded

00:30:12 --> 00:30:17

with these 40 characteristic they still think they are worthy that

00:30:17 --> 00:30:20

sort of that the messages should be given to them and open means

00:30:21 --> 00:30:25

they're saying that why is this message given to the Prophet

00:30:25 --> 00:30:28

Muhammad Salah Listen, it should come to us because we are the

00:30:28 --> 00:30:33

leaders okay. This is the attitude and they think that they qualify

00:30:34 --> 00:30:36

for the divine message of Naboo or to be given to them.

00:30:39 --> 00:30:43

And there is a Shara and this for us, because normal Nobunaga that

00:30:43 --> 00:30:47

we should not expect spiritual gifts from Allah subhanaw taala

00:30:47 --> 00:30:51

divine gifts. If we are people of faulty character, if we are

00:30:51 --> 00:30:55

disobedient if we reject certain aspects, and then we say what

00:30:55 --> 00:30:59

Allah will give me this opening into things and I will see things

00:30:59 --> 00:31:04

we have to prepare ourselves with obedience with submission, then

00:31:04 --> 00:31:09

Allah gives gifts to whom he wins. So this is out of their arrogance

00:31:09 --> 00:31:12

and their envy for Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam and their

00:31:12 --> 00:31:17

self delusion, about their own words that they think that they

00:31:17 --> 00:31:19

should be chosen for the message and this comes elsewhere in the

00:31:19 --> 00:31:24

Quran. When Allah subhanaw taala says we're Paulo lo Allah Newsela

00:31:24 --> 00:31:28

Hazal Khurana Allah Raja Lim menial Korea they are them. Only

00:31:28 --> 00:31:32

if this Quran was revealed to one of the two women one of the two

00:31:32 --> 00:31:36

men of the two great cities MacArthur if the leader either

00:31:36 --> 00:31:39

should have been given to a leader of Maccha or the leader of time,

00:31:39 --> 00:31:42

why has it been given to an orphan whose unlettered This is the

00:31:42 --> 00:31:46

arrogance, because Allah looks at the hearts not at what you have

00:31:46 --> 00:31:47

this.

00:31:49 --> 00:31:52

The other understanding of this is or the desire and expect that the

00:31:52 --> 00:31:57

root scrolls of the deeds will be opened. And it will, it will show

00:31:57 --> 00:32:02

great deeds, what they perceive as great whereas it is all that that

00:32:02 --> 00:32:08

Allah has rejected. So for this expectation of that Allah spa not

00:32:08 --> 00:32:12

gives an emphatic kala which comes over and over and what we've been

00:32:12 --> 00:32:16

reading, never know. Allah subhanaw taala negates this by

00:32:16 --> 00:32:21

saying this will never happen. They live their lives in disregard

00:32:21 --> 00:32:24

of the consequences of depths of resurrection and the truth of the

00:32:24 --> 00:32:28

hereafter. They have no concern about it. They're disconnected

00:32:28 --> 00:32:30

from the pain of death, the disconnected from the pain of the

00:32:30 --> 00:32:34

grave that disconnected from your pain of resurrection of the Day of

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

Judgment.

00:32:36 --> 00:32:40

Sucker, that's where they are, how do they expect this can lead into

00:32:40 --> 00:32:46

who TEV Cara? Indeed this Quran is a reminder, it's a warning that we

00:32:46 --> 00:32:52

make the choices for muncher that Cara, Whoever wants can take the

00:32:52 --> 00:32:57

message from this the reminder that we have been given choices we

00:32:57 --> 00:33:01

make the choices, we alone decide, and we face the consequences of

00:33:01 --> 00:33:06

our choices, whether they are right or the wrong ones. It is our

00:33:06 --> 00:33:09

and your free choice. No one compels you.

00:33:10 --> 00:33:15

Whoever wants will remember who will take heat from this reminder

00:33:15 --> 00:33:19

the Quran and accept the reminder. And whoever wins can deny it. See,

00:33:19 --> 00:33:23

I don't believe in any of that it is up to me. This warning of Allah

00:33:23 --> 00:33:27

smart Allah itself is not a threat. It's a grace. It's a

00:33:27 --> 00:33:31

mercy. Because he told us, this is what's going to happen. Okay, this

00:33:31 --> 00:33:35

is the Mercy of Allah subhanaw taala. Therefore, you and I should

00:33:35 --> 00:33:41

always live within this envelope. That this is my choice, this is

00:33:41 --> 00:33:45

the will of Allah. These are the consequences, every choice that I

00:33:45 --> 00:33:48

make every action every word I utter, should be within the limits

00:33:48 --> 00:33:53

of what Allah wants. I live my life in the envelope of this

00:33:53 --> 00:33:58

reality and that Allah is watching, as we said in the

00:33:58 --> 00:34:01

previous that Allah does not know that Allah sees everything.

00:34:03 --> 00:34:06

So you choose your attitude towards the Quran.

00:34:07 --> 00:34:09

There was outright rejection of the Quran.

00:34:10 --> 00:34:14

Like those people we talked about, there is acceptance of the Quran.

00:34:14 --> 00:34:16

Many Muslims accept the Quran,

00:34:17 --> 00:34:24

but treated with negligence and they abandon the Quran. Never read

00:34:24 --> 00:34:28

it. Don't know the message not interested. Don't have it haven't

00:34:28 --> 00:34:32

read it don't know what it contains what to do. And Allah

00:34:32 --> 00:34:36

subhanaw taala mentions this in the Quran, Kala Rasool that the

00:34:36 --> 00:34:42

Rasul will say, Yara be in comit the hadoo Hodel Quran in Mathura

00:34:42 --> 00:34:46

that my people have abandoned module something that's been

00:34:46 --> 00:34:48

abandoned this Quran

00:34:51 --> 00:34:55

it was given and then neglected it did not want to have anything to

00:34:55 --> 00:34:59

do with it. May Allah Subhana Allah make us among the Al Quran

00:35:01 --> 00:35:04

Then the next attitude is submit to the Quran

00:35:05 --> 00:35:08

and mold our lives according to the Quran.

00:35:09 --> 00:35:14

So our attitude is always whenever we hear the Quran Allah says this

00:35:14 --> 00:35:19

in the Quran, Amman, we believe semana Akana, we are here and we

00:35:19 --> 00:35:24

will that should be Yes Can we falter in that can we make mistake

00:35:24 --> 00:35:27

and we have moments of weakness of course we are human beings, but

00:35:27 --> 00:35:29

that should be our attitude and we always return to that.

00:35:31 --> 00:35:37

Who am I if Karuna insha Allah Who Taqwa will mark Farah, this is the

00:35:37 --> 00:35:39

last time Allah subhanaw taala says

00:35:40 --> 00:35:44

that all of this is within the mushiya within the the Arada of

00:35:44 --> 00:35:47

Allah Subhan Allah within the will of Allah subhanaw taala and we can

00:35:47 --> 00:35:52

discuss this a little bit more in the q&a, that Allah has knowledge,

00:35:52 --> 00:35:55

what people will decide is within the knowledge of Allah, there is

00:35:55 --> 00:35:59

no past present future what our decisions would be, are already

00:35:59 --> 00:36:02

known to what our destination would be, is already known to

00:36:02 --> 00:36:05

Allah who is beyond time and space with the creator of time and

00:36:05 --> 00:36:06

space.

00:36:07 --> 00:36:11

And everything within that creative will, which is called

00:36:11 --> 00:36:17

Arada konia, the creative the master, the grand will of Allah is

00:36:17 --> 00:36:20

all of creation, heart was created, all the rules and laws of

00:36:20 --> 00:36:23

that, that govern that creation, how it runs

00:36:24 --> 00:36:28

among that is the will of Allah that human beings will be given a

00:36:28 --> 00:36:29

free will to choose

00:36:30 --> 00:36:34

to the choice we make is not outside the will of Allah the

00:36:34 --> 00:36:37

reason we are making those choice the ability is because this is

00:36:37 --> 00:36:42

what Allah will, that you and I will make choices. So, it is part

00:36:42 --> 00:36:45

of his creative will, the Arada konia

00:36:46 --> 00:36:49

the one that encompasses everything, every law of the

00:36:49 --> 00:36:50

universe,

00:36:51 --> 00:36:54

of what moves what happens, which leaves turns red, which turns

00:36:54 --> 00:36:59

orange when it falls, which star moves which everything the laws of

00:36:59 --> 00:37:03

physics of astronomy or biology, every law is in that among that

00:37:03 --> 00:37:08

law is that this creature has been given a choice. Then there is a

00:37:08 --> 00:37:12

rather shall II Allah subhanaw taala is legislated will this is

00:37:12 --> 00:37:14

what I want you to do.

00:37:15 --> 00:37:20

These are the rights and wrongs there is where your choices. Okay?

00:37:21 --> 00:37:25

Allah has given us that that's where it comes but to think that

00:37:25 --> 00:37:29

it's outside the will of Allah know, the ability to make the

00:37:29 --> 00:37:32

choices because of the will of Allah. Yet Allah is not willing

00:37:32 --> 00:37:33

you to sin.

00:37:35 --> 00:37:39

He's giving you the choice. And he's telling you this is what I

00:37:39 --> 00:37:43

prefer for you to do. This is what I want you to do. But what are

00:37:43 --> 00:37:46

they now how much then Allah sama and we guided them to to two

00:37:46 --> 00:37:52

paths. This leads it's temporary pleasure leads to Jana. Temporary

00:37:52 --> 00:37:54

hardship leads to Jana you choose

00:37:56 --> 00:37:57

all under his will.

00:38:01 --> 00:38:04

And ultimately Allah as well is done. And then Allah subhanaw

00:38:04 --> 00:38:10

taala says he is and Taqwa he is the one deserving of Taqwa of

00:38:10 --> 00:38:12

reverence, of

00:38:13 --> 00:38:18

all of love, of keeping away from that which displeased him because

00:38:18 --> 00:38:20

I he is the one who deserves

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

Taqwa

00:38:24 --> 00:38:32

the one the master, so we should be always one, not to do things

00:38:32 --> 00:38:36

that he does not love that are harmful and hurtful to me. Because

00:38:36 --> 00:38:39

He is the Creator. He's the owner. He is the legislator. He is the

00:38:39 --> 00:38:42

sovereign of everything. He deserves my veneration. He

00:38:42 --> 00:38:46

deserves my glorification. He deserves my obedience. He deserves

00:38:46 --> 00:38:49

that I fear him he deserves that I love him. He deserves that I

00:38:49 --> 00:38:54

submit to him completely. Well, Mark Farah, and he is the

00:38:54 --> 00:38:56

worthiest of forgiving

00:38:58 --> 00:39:04

if I strive to remove that which holds me hostage of wrong choices,

00:39:04 --> 00:39:10

and sinful deeds, if I strive to practice taqwa, in my behavior, in

00:39:10 --> 00:39:14

my speech, in my thoughts, guarding all of them, knowing that

00:39:14 --> 00:39:18

Allah knows to be in accordance with what she loves, and is

00:39:18 --> 00:39:24

pleased with, then we should know and be reassured that Allah has

00:39:24 --> 00:39:27

plenty of malfa forgiveness

00:39:28 --> 00:39:31

for the times where we made mistakes,

00:39:32 --> 00:39:37

so Allah tells us after taking us through all of the realities of

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

this world and the Afra

00:39:40 --> 00:39:44

he ends the surah with the powerful note of hope,

00:39:46 --> 00:39:51

telling us there is still time to change the course of our lives,

00:39:52 --> 00:39:57

and to move forward to cut them, cut them with the arcane certainty

00:39:57 --> 00:39:59

that it's coming and with hope

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

I'm going to do right. And Allah's forgiveness encompasses everything

00:40:06 --> 00:40:10

if I do this, I can be 100% Certain Allah will forgive me.

00:40:12 --> 00:40:17

So may Allah subhanaw taala make us among those who have Taqwa of

00:40:17 --> 00:40:23

him and among those who are forgiven by him Allahumma RT

00:40:23 --> 00:40:28

Takaka who Amok theoretic by gel nominal Moroccan mean Ali Mark

00:40:28 --> 00:40:33

ferritic May Allah make us among those who are forgiven by him. So,

00:40:33 --> 00:40:39

inshallah we will end this on this hopeful note, after being through

00:40:39 --> 00:40:44

soccer and soda and all of those and the criminals and all of that

00:40:44 --> 00:40:47

we come back to hope.

00:40:50 --> 00:40:53

So Inshallah, we will, we will take

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

questions and answers are
