The transcript is a jumbled mix of sentences and phrases, making it difficult to summarize the appropriate position for each individual. They discuss the implications of extending employment to other occupations, such as being an hourly worker, salary, hourly, and small hourly workers. They also mention a sign that people believe in the Day of barrel and a sign that a person who truly believes AI will stand in front of Allah subhanaw taala. The transcript is a disjointed and disjointed conversation, and the speakers do not seem to be true.

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

Salam aleikum, my dear brothers and sisters.

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

We praise and glorify Allah subhanaw taala and we send peace

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

and blessings on his Noble Messenger our beloved prophet

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

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

may Allah Subhana Allah increase us in useful knowledge? May Allah

00:01:21 --> 00:01:25

subhanaw taala open our hearts to his remembrance? May Allah

00:01:25 --> 00:01:32

subhanaw taala never let our hearts divert from the path of

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

obedience. May Allah subhanaw taala never bring doubts in our

00:01:36 --> 00:01:38

hearts about the truth.

00:01:40 --> 00:01:44

Today, be the law we are going to

00:01:46 --> 00:01:51

discuss together and study together surah number 83 from

00:01:51 --> 00:01:55

Usamah which is called Surah Al muda 15

00:01:56 --> 00:02:02

Surah Al Motta 15, according to the majority of Scholars is in

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

makansutra.

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

All of it

00:02:07 --> 00:02:13

however, there are some narrations that are attributed to say the NA

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

Abdullayev now about sort of the Allahu anha

00:02:17 --> 00:02:18

that

00:02:19 --> 00:02:22

this surah was revealed in the early Medina and period.

00:02:23 --> 00:02:27

When the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam got to Medina, he found

00:02:27 --> 00:02:30

that people were cheating in trading.

00:02:32 --> 00:02:36

And Allah subhanaw taala revealed this. However, if we look at the

00:02:36 --> 00:02:43

history, the traders were in Makkah, and the agriculturists

00:02:43 --> 00:02:46

were in Medina, but again, in Medina, there was also some trade

00:02:46 --> 00:02:48

because dates was bought and sold.

00:02:49 --> 00:02:54

So others have said that perhaps to reconcile these two different

00:02:55 --> 00:03:00

opinions that part of the surah the first four Iots were revealed

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

in the early Medina and period after the Prophet sallallaahu

00:03:03 --> 00:03:07

Salam God there. And the rest of the surah was revealed in Makkah,

00:03:07 --> 00:03:10

because we have examples in the Quran of many sorrows that were

00:03:11 --> 00:03:16

revealed in portions, some here some there. So that's the probably

00:03:16 --> 00:03:21

the best way to reconcile the differing opinions. And it's not

00:03:21 --> 00:03:27

that critical because the style of the Quran in In this surah is more

00:03:27 --> 00:03:33

of a Moroccan because it deals with Eman and it deals with the

00:03:33 --> 00:03:39

Ophira. And it deals with some of the issues that the the opponents

00:03:39 --> 00:03:45

of Islam were bringing and putting forth. So and the style of the

00:03:45 --> 00:03:49

short ayat is also makin sort of

00:03:50 --> 00:03:53

an indication that it was a makansutra Anyway, with that

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

introduction, we will start the surah Allah subhanaw taala says

00:03:58 --> 00:04:05

all bIllahi min ash shaytani R rajim Bismillah Hara Manuel Rafi

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

Wei Lu lil poor Fifi a Latina a Dr. Lu Harlan sa a stove fortune

00:04:15 --> 00:04:21

what you that Kallu whom Oh wasn't knew who you see rune.

00:04:23 --> 00:04:25

Don't know hula

00:04:26 --> 00:04:29

hoop Mahone

00:04:30 --> 00:04:33

laomi. Now we

00:04:34 --> 00:04:40

so let's deal with these five Iots Allah subhanaw taala says whale.

00:04:42 --> 00:04:46

Whale as we have mentioned before, there are different

00:04:46 --> 00:04:51

interpretations but the word while generally means something that is

00:04:51 --> 00:04:53

cursed something that is

00:04:54 --> 00:04:59

to be destroyed. It's absolute destruction.

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

So whale means absolute, it's a curse that an absolute destruction

00:05:06 --> 00:05:11

is coming is coming on the what is mentioned after that,

00:05:12 --> 00:05:18

there is another opinion, that whale is actually a valley in

00:05:18 --> 00:05:22

Jannah for the people who are mentioned after this, and it could

00:05:22 --> 00:05:27

be both. So in this case, Allah subhanaw taala says, and this

00:05:27 --> 00:05:31

whale is used in many places in the Quran, way, little, little

00:05:31 --> 00:05:37

Mustafi fee. So the word morphine is used here for the first time,

00:05:37 --> 00:05:44

the far far from which it comes means to practice cheating by

00:05:44 --> 00:05:51

shortchanging others. While when I am purchasing something, I demand

00:05:53 --> 00:05:59

to get all of it for myself, even the smallest quantity. For

00:05:59 --> 00:06:04

example, if somebody is weighing dates for me, and the scale goes

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

up to the two kilos that I want, but it's just shy of it, and

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

putting one extra date will make it go quite a bit, I still say put

00:06:12 --> 00:06:16

that extra date for me, I want my full measure.

00:06:17 --> 00:06:19

But on the other hand,

00:06:20 --> 00:06:25

when we are measuring to give others, we shortchange them, we

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

give them little less.

00:06:29 --> 00:06:35

So this small amount of cheating in business, this is what motor 15

00:06:35 --> 00:06:37

people who do this regularly

00:06:39 --> 00:06:42

that they will cheat others

00:06:43 --> 00:06:49

regularly in commerce and business for little gain, little gain,

00:06:50 --> 00:06:55

even if it's for a few grams. So they are in a way they are

00:06:55 --> 00:06:56

defrauding people.

00:06:58 --> 00:07:02

Now, some of us might say, well, Hamdulillah, I'm not a

00:07:02 --> 00:07:05

businessman. So this doesn't apply to me.

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

But there are implications, because we can extend this to

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

other occupations. For example, I am an hourly worker, I'm being

00:07:16 --> 00:07:17

paid by the hour.

00:07:19 --> 00:07:26

And I cheat my employer by using my time in doing personal things,

00:07:26 --> 00:07:27

taking long breaks.

00:07:29 --> 00:07:31

You know, taking my time for Salah

00:07:32 --> 00:07:38

taking off early to work, spending time on my phone, checking my

00:07:38 --> 00:07:44

emails, and Facebook's and all of that and letting the time that I

00:07:44 --> 00:07:49

am supposed to work be used in other things. So I'm shortchanging

00:07:49 --> 00:07:54

the one who is paying. So this is another way of the same being

00:07:55 --> 00:07:59

Emoto fluffy. And we can extend it out into other fields in

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

generality. So you know Omar ibn Al Khattab Ravi Allah one one day

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

he saw a man praying in the in the masjid. And when he was finished,

00:08:09 --> 00:08:14

he said that you have done the FAFSA you have shortchanged Allah,

00:08:15 --> 00:08:19

because you're such da and your Roku were not done properly. They

00:08:19 --> 00:08:23

were you cut through them, you shortchanged Allah Subhanallah you

00:08:23 --> 00:08:25

did not give him what his do is.

00:08:26 --> 00:08:29

So then we can then extend it more

00:08:30 --> 00:08:34

into our own professions, you know, people who are in the

00:08:34 --> 00:08:39

service industry. So if I am a lawyer or a doctor, and I'm

00:08:39 --> 00:08:43

supposed to provide a certain amount of service, and I don't

00:08:46 --> 00:08:50

or I charge more hours than I have put in.

00:08:53 --> 00:08:59

Also, it can be extended into cheating people out of the rights

00:08:59 --> 00:09:04

such as the rights of Allah, that I skimp on my salah. I get through

00:09:04 --> 00:09:08

it very quickly. I don't give Allah subhanaw taala his full do

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

now I'm skimping shortchanging the creation of Allah subhanaw taala

00:09:14 --> 00:09:20

I, my I had a contract of Nica with my wife, she had certain

00:09:20 --> 00:09:25

rights on me, I have certain rights on her, either of us is not

00:09:25 --> 00:09:30

giving the full right of the other cheating for example, the children

00:09:30 --> 00:09:35

have the rights that they have on us and we can extend this. So this

00:09:35 --> 00:09:40

is not although here it specifies a merchant who is buying and

00:09:40 --> 00:09:42

selling, measuring and weighing.

00:09:43 --> 00:09:48

So Allah subhanaw taala is telling us that even the small degree of

00:09:49 --> 00:09:52

cheating which is so it's not a big deal, you know, I'm not doing

00:09:52 --> 00:09:56

a big Ponzi scheme where I'm looting people or billions of

00:09:56 --> 00:09:57

dollars.

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

But if I'm cheating some

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

One of five cents worth.

00:10:04 --> 00:10:07

It comes under the category category of motor 15. I'm doing it

00:10:07 --> 00:10:11

knowingly I'm doing it consistently. So Allah subhanaw

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

taala saying curse be may destruction beyond one who cheats

00:10:17 --> 00:10:22

now, if this is the situation for a small amount of cheating, just

00:10:22 --> 00:10:26

imagine how big it would be for a greater degree of cheating.

00:10:27 --> 00:10:30

And then Allah subhanaw taala although this meaning is embedded

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

in this word of MacDuffie, Allah subhanaw taala goes on in the next

00:10:37 --> 00:10:40

two I try to explain it so that there is no confusion about it.

00:10:41 --> 00:10:46

When he says Who are these people? Alladhina eductor Lu Allah NASA

00:10:46 --> 00:10:52

Yes, so cool, that when they measure to take from people they

00:10:52 --> 00:10:56

are overly aggressive and demanding what they get normal

00:10:56 --> 00:11:01

structure would be Italo Mina NASA from taking from people but alas,

00:11:01 --> 00:11:05

Montana using word Lana's means they are very aggressive and

00:11:05 --> 00:11:08

demanding. No, I have to have my full share.

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

So yes, so phone means to take in full measure.

00:11:16 --> 00:11:20

So this is when I'm taking but then the next I Allah smart Allah

00:11:20 --> 00:11:21

says

00:11:23 --> 00:11:27

what either car loom Oh was a new room, user room.

00:11:28 --> 00:11:30

And when they measure

00:11:31 --> 00:11:36

to others was a new home the way some merchandise to others, you

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

still

00:11:38 --> 00:11:43

make they make them undergo a loss, they cause a loss by giving

00:11:43 --> 00:11:47

them less they diminish the decrease it they shortchange it

00:11:47 --> 00:11:49

even by a small amount.

00:11:50 --> 00:11:53

So this is the characteristic of the person

00:11:55 --> 00:12:00

and this is a symptom. Why does this person do this? Because

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

logically, he is not going to get wealthy by a little bit here a

00:12:03 --> 00:12:05

little bit there cheating people.

00:12:06 --> 00:12:11

Allah subhanaw taala tells us that he does for us a root cause

00:12:11 --> 00:12:13

analysis. Why does this person do this?

00:12:14 --> 00:12:17

Allah Subhan Allah says Allah name.

00:12:18 --> 00:12:22

You don't know who like Anoma overthrown.

00:12:24 --> 00:12:29

The root causes Yeah, zunow He, Allah you don't know Does he not

00:12:29 --> 00:12:35

think that they themselves will be marble within raised up for the in

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

the hereafter for the Day of Judgment? In other words, this

00:12:38 --> 00:12:41

person, Allah smart Allah saying, Does he not think in other words,

00:12:41 --> 00:12:45

he thinks he's not going to be raised for a day of judgment. He

00:12:45 --> 00:12:50

doesn't think that he will be held accountable. He doesn't think he

00:12:50 --> 00:12:55

thinks he can get away, nobody knows. Because there is no real

00:12:55 --> 00:13:01

belief that there is someone watching me that I will be held

00:13:02 --> 00:13:07

accountable. So this is a symptom of the wrong thinking that they

00:13:07 --> 00:13:10

will not be accounted for, there is no day of judgment.

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

So you can take that and turn it the other way, that a real belief.

00:13:18 --> 00:13:21

They are kind of imagine that we have one of which is belief in the

00:13:21 --> 00:13:22

Day of Judgment.

00:13:23 --> 00:13:29

It should produce a positive change in the character and

00:13:29 --> 00:13:34

actions of a person because a person who truly believes that AI

00:13:34 --> 00:13:36

will stand in front of Allah subhanaw taala, and even the

00:13:36 --> 00:13:39

smallest things will be there would not do that.

00:13:42 --> 00:13:46

So the fact that they're doing this is a sign that they don't

00:13:46 --> 00:13:51

really in heartache, I believe that I will be held or they will

00:13:51 --> 00:13:52

be held accountable.

00:13:53 --> 00:13:59

Therefore the sign of real human is how we interact with people in

00:13:59 --> 00:14:02

trade and everything else. It's not just about claiming that yes,

00:14:02 --> 00:14:07

I believe, because if we truly believe we would not shortchange

00:14:07 --> 00:14:10

anybody in any of their rights.

00:14:13 --> 00:14:18

Allah subhanaw taala then mentions they will not be raised again. Mob

00:14:18 --> 00:14:25

overthrown. Li yo Mina have been on a day with great of edema of

00:14:25 --> 00:14:30

greatness and awesome day. And the word of him comes from other Ummah

00:14:30 --> 00:14:34

also, which means bones, something that's very strong, very severe.

00:14:34 --> 00:14:40

And we know the day of judgment is a very severe day. And there are

00:14:40 --> 00:14:44

some descriptions of that. That will come after

00:14:45 --> 00:14:51

a loss. Rantala Dan says, yo maya Kuhlman, nasally. Rub Bill Hala

00:14:51 --> 00:14:52

me.

00:14:53 --> 00:14:59

What day is this? Yo manavi a day. Yakumo NASA where men come

00:15:00 --> 00:15:01

I will stand

00:15:04 --> 00:15:07

where are they going to stand last week we had said that Allah is

00:15:07 --> 00:15:10

going to level this earth completely.

00:15:11 --> 00:15:16

level ground, no mountains, no valleys, no shade nothing. They

00:15:16 --> 00:15:20

will be standing all of mankind from other Mala salaam to the last

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

child that's born will be standing in one level field.

00:15:28 --> 00:15:34

How? By the Command of Allah, through the blowing of the second

00:15:34 --> 00:15:38

blowing of the, of the sewer. The trumpet has been translated,

00:15:39 --> 00:15:43

people will come out in an adult form from the from the ground

00:15:43 --> 00:15:47

wherever their tailbone was, as the Hadith says they will stand up

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

and they will be rushing there to the day of judgment.

00:15:52 --> 00:15:53

In what shape

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

you in the shape that they were born in, originally?

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

What clothes None.

00:16:03 --> 00:16:04

No clothes.

00:16:06 --> 00:16:11

Originally, like we were born, men and women, without every anything

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

being removed will be there with no clothes. No place to stand like

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

we learned last week and in surah in Chicago, no place to move.

00:16:25 --> 00:16:31

When saya Aisha Radi Allahu anha heard this She said your rasuna

00:16:31 --> 00:16:33

men and women standing naked

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

in feeling that higher.

00:16:38 --> 00:16:41

He SallAllahu lism Cydia Aisha.

00:16:42 --> 00:16:43

That day is so severe,

00:16:45 --> 00:16:50

but so much awe and fear that no one will even care to look at

00:16:50 --> 00:16:54

anyone else. Because they'll only be worried about themselves

00:16:54 --> 00:16:55

themselves.

00:16:56 --> 00:17:00

So we have to be very, very

00:17:02 --> 00:17:07

prepared that this day is coming. Who will be standing in front of

00:17:08 --> 00:17:12

lira Bill alanine, that last mount Allah ultimately for the Day of

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

Judgment after a long standing the Hadees tells us where people will

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

get so fed up Allah subhanaw taala will bring the sun in its form.

00:17:21 --> 00:17:27

It's called the sun, one or two miles of meal above and the heat

00:17:27 --> 00:17:30

will be such that the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam said people

00:17:30 --> 00:17:34

will be sweating from it. Some their sweat will be down to their

00:17:34 --> 00:17:39

ankles, to the knees to the waist, some in one Hadees to the ears,

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

they'll be drowning in their sweat. And it will be so severe

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

that the kuffaar will say start the day of judgment we can take

00:17:48 --> 00:17:49

this anymore.

00:17:50 --> 00:17:55

And in some narrations as Allah subhanaw taala tells us the day is

00:17:55 --> 00:18:00

like 50,000 years means it's like a long time nothing that we have

00:18:00 --> 00:18:05

any clue about because everybody will be taken to account.

00:18:06 --> 00:18:10

No shade, except when the shade when the ash of Allah subhanaw

00:18:10 --> 00:18:14

taala is brought down by eight angels. Because there is a

00:18:14 --> 00:18:17

significance of that too normally for angels

00:18:19 --> 00:18:24

carry the ASHA of Allah. On that day there will be eight as this

00:18:24 --> 00:18:28

tells us, because Allah is going to be angry that day and four

00:18:28 --> 00:18:32

angels are not enough to handle that Ash because of the impact of

00:18:32 --> 00:18:37

that. And then Allah subhanaw taala will descend in his own way

00:18:37 --> 00:18:40

to start the day of judgment. So

00:18:42 --> 00:18:45

on that day, nobody if you believe in the day of judgment or don't

00:18:45 --> 00:18:50

believe it's not a true matter of choice, it is everybody whether

00:18:50 --> 00:18:53

you believe it or not will stand in front of me.

00:18:54 --> 00:18:58

In the dunya we had a choice. You want to stand in front of Allah

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

subhanaw taala all night you can stand. You never want to stand you

00:19:02 --> 00:19:03

don't have to stand.

00:19:05 --> 00:19:10

You can choose to bow in Rocco, you can choose to prostrate in

00:19:10 --> 00:19:15

front of Allah and Sajida or you can say no, I will not on that day

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

there is no choice, the choice is only in this life.

00:19:22 --> 00:19:23

On that day,

00:19:24 --> 00:19:30

your mind then Lilla only for Allah, the command is only a loss.

00:19:35 --> 00:19:40

So, we will all stand in front of our last one without somebody who

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

does not believe that will act in ways of disobedience will act

00:19:47 --> 00:19:48

ignoring all of these.

00:19:49 --> 00:19:53

And if we say we believe and we still do this, then there is a

00:19:53 --> 00:19:57

problem between what we are saying and what our heart believes.

00:19:58 --> 00:19:59

So then

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

After this misgiving, this wrong thought you alone, they thought

00:20:06 --> 00:20:11

that there is no such thing. Allah subhanaw taala negates all of

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

those wrong ideas that there is no accountability by saying Killa

00:20:15 --> 00:20:21

Killa means denial of all of their misgivings all of their wrong

00:20:21 --> 00:20:25

thoughts. Allah subhanaw taala saying not at all this is not the

00:20:25 --> 00:20:30

case as they think. In other words, there is definitely a Day

00:20:30 --> 00:20:31

of Judgment
