and blessings on his Noble Messenger our beloved prophet

and on all those who love Him, and try their best to follow him in

subhanaw taala open our hearts to his remembrance? May Allah
subhanaw taala never let our hearts divert from the path of
obedience. May Allah subhanaw taala never bring doubts in our
hearts about the truth.
Today, be the law we are going to
discuss together and study together surah number 83 from
Usamah which is called Surah Al muda 15
Surah Al Motta 15, according to the majority of Scholars is in
makansutra.
All of it
however, there are some narrations that are attributed to say the NA
Abdullayev now boughs are the Allahu anha
that
this surah was revealed in the early Medina and period.
When the Prophet salallahu Salam got to Medina, he found that
people were cheating in trading.
And Allah subhanaw taala revealed this. However, if we look at the
history, the traders were in Makkah, and the agriculturists
were in Medina, but again, in Medina, there was also some trade
because dates was bought and sold.
So, others have said that perhaps to reconcile these two different
opinions that part of the surah the first four Iots were revealed
in the early Medina and period after the Prophet sallallahu
wasallam. God there. And the rest of the surah was revealed in
Makkah, because we have examples in the Quran of many sorrows that
were revealed in portions, some here some there. So that's the
probably the best way to reconcile the differing opinions. And it's
not that critical because the style of the Quran in In this
surah is more of a Moroccan because it deals with Eman and it
deals with the Ophira. And it deals with some of the issues that
the the opponents of Islam were bringing and putting forth. So and
the style of the short ayat is also makin sort of
an indication that it was a makansutra Anyway, with that
introduction, we will start the surah Allah subhanaw taala says
all the bIllahi min ash shaytani R rajim Bismillah Hara Manuel Rafi
Wei Lu lil puffy Alladhina eductor lo Harlan naszej yes sto foreknown
what you that Kallu whom Oh was a new who you see rune. And y'all
don't know hula. Now whose mother who phone
laomi. Now we
so let's deal with these five Iots Allah subhanaw taala says whale.
Whale as we have mentioned before, there are different
interpretations but the word while generally means something that is
cursed something that is
to be destroyed. It's absolute disaster.
reduction.
So whale means absolute, it's a curse that an absolute destruction
is coming is coming on the what is mentioned after that
there is another opinion, that whale is actually a valley in
Jannah for the people who are mentioned after this, and it could
be both. So in this case, Allah subhanaw taala says, and this
whale is used in many places in the Quran, way, little, little
Mustafi fee. So the word morphine is used here for the first time,
the far far from which it comes means to practice cheating by
shortchanging others. While when I am purchasing something, I demand
to get all of it for myself, even the smallest quantity. For
example, if somebody is weighing dates for me, and the scale goes
up to the two kilos that I want, but it's just shy of it, and
putting one extra date will make it go quite a bit, I still said
put that extra date for me, I want my full measure.
But on the other hand,
when we are measuring to give others, we shortchange them, we
give them little less.
So this small amount of cheating in business, this is what motor 15
people who do this regularly
that they will cheat others
regularly in commerce and business for little gain, little gain,
even if it's for a few grams. So they are in a way they are
defrauding people.
Now, some of us might say, well, hamdulillah I'm not a businessman.
So this doesn't apply to me.
But there are implications, because we can extend this to
other occupations. For example, I am an hourly worker, I'm being
paid by the hour.
And I cheat my employer by using my time in doing personal things,
taking long breaks.
You know, taking my time for Salah
taking off early to work, spending time on my phone, checking my
emails, and Facebook's and all of that and letting the time that I
am supposed to work be used in other things. So I'm shortchanging
the one who is paying. So this is another way of the same being Mr.
Duffy and we can extend it out into other fields in generality.
So yes no Amardeep no hot tub Robbie Allah one one day he saw a
man praying in the in the masjid. And when he was finished, he said
that you have done the FAFSA you have shortchanged Allah, because
you're such da and your Roku were not done properly. They were you
cut through them, you shortchanged Allah Subhanallah you did not give
him what his do is.
So then we can then extend it more
into our own professions, you know, people who are in the
service industry. So if I am a lawyer or a doctor, and I'm
supposed to provide a certain amount of service, and I don't
or I charge more hours than I have put in.
Also, it can be extended into cheating people out of their
rights such as the rights of Allah, that I skimp on my sunnah.
I get through it very quickly. I don't give Allah subhanaw taala
his full do
now I'm skimping shortchanging the creation of Allah subhanaw taala
I, my I had a contract of Nica with my wife, she had certain
rights on me, I have certain rights on her, either of us is not
giving the full right of the other cheating for example, the children
have the rights that they have on us and we can extend this. So this
is not although here it specifies a merchant who is buying and
selling, measuring and weighing.
So Allah subhanaw taala is telling us that even the small degree of
cheating which is so it's not a big deal, you know, I'm not doing
a big Ponzi scheme where I'm looting people or billions of
dollars.
But if I'm cheating someone or five cents worth
it comes under the category category of motor 15. I'm doing it
knowingly I'm doing it consistently. So Allah subhanaw
taala saying curse be may destruction beyond one who cheats
now, if this is the situation for a small amount of cheating, just
imagine how big it would be for a greater degree of cheating.
And then Allah subhanaw taala although this meaning is embedded
in this word of MacDuffie, Allah subhanaw taala goes on in the next
two I had to explain it so that there is no confusion about it.
When he says Who are these people? Alladhina eductor Lu Allah NASA
Yes, though,
that when they measure to take from people they are overly
aggressive and demanding what they get normal structure would be
Italo Mina NASA from taking from people but alas, Montana using
word Lana's means they're very aggressive and demanding Nope, I
have to have my full share.
So yes, so phone means to take in full measure.
So this is when I'm taking. But then the next I Allah smart Allah
says
what either car loom Oh was a new room, user room.
And when they measure
to others was a new home the way some merchandise to others, you
also
make they make them undergo a loss, they cause a loss by giving
them less they diminish the decrease it they shortchange it
even by a small amount.
So this is the characteristic of the person
and this is a symptom. Why does this person do this? Because
logically, he is not going to get wealthy by a little bit here a
little bit there cheating people.
Allah subhanaw taala tells us that he does for us a root cause
analysis. Why does this person do this?
Allah Subhan Allah says Allah name.
Yes. Do you know who like Anoma overthrown?
The root causes Yamanouchi? Allah you don't know, does he not think
that they themselves will be Mabu thrown raised up for the in the
hereafter for the Day of Judgment? In other words, this person, Allah
subhanaw taala, saying, Does he not think in other words, he
thinks he's not going to be raised for a day of judgment, He doesn't
think that he will be held accountable. He doesn't think he
thinks he can get away, nobody knows. Because there is no real
belief that there is someone watching me that I will be held
accountable. So this is a symptom of the wrong thinking that they
will not be accounted for that there is no day of judgment.
So you can take that and turn it the other way that a real belief,
we can have imagine that we have one of which is belief in the Day
of Judgment.
It should produce a positive change in the character and
actions of a person because a person who truly believes that I
will stand in front of Allah subhanaw taala, and even the
smallest things will be there would not do that.
So the fact that they're doing this is a sign that they don't
really in happycar believe that I will be held or they will be held
accountable.
Therefore the sign of really man is how we interact with people in
trade and everything else. It's not just about claiming that yes,
I believe, because if we truly believe we would not shortchange
anybody in any of their rights.
Allah subhanaw taala then mentions they will not be raised again. Mob
overthrown. Li yo Mina have been on a day with great of him of
greatness and awesome day. And the word of him comes from other Amma
also which means bones, something that's very strong, very severe.
And we know the day of judgment is a very severe day. And there are
some descriptions of that. That will come after
Allah subhanaw taala then says, your ma your Kuhlmann nasally rub
Bill Hala me
What day is this Yama NaVi a de Yakumo na
ask where mankind will stand.
Where are they going to stand last week we had said that Allah is
going to level this earth completely.
level ground, no mountains, no valleys, no shade nothing. They
will be standing all of mankind from other Mala salaam to the last
child that's born will be standing in one level field.
How? By the Command of Allah, through the blowing of the second
blowing of the, of the sore, the trumpet has been translated,
people will come out in an adult form from the from the ground
wherever their tailbone was, as the Hadith says they will stand up
and they will be rushing there to the day of judgment.
In what shape
in the shape that they were born in, originally.
What clothes None.
No clothes.
Originally, like we were born, men and women, without every anything
being removed will be there with no clothes. No place to stand like
we learned last week and in surah in Chicago, no place to move.
When saya Aisha Radi Allahu anha heard this She said your rasuna
men and women standing naked
in feeling that higher.
He Salah lism Cydia, Aisha.
That day is so severe
but so much or in fear that no one will even care to look at anyone
else. Because they'll only be worried about themselves
themselves.
So, we have to be very, very
prepared that this day is coming. Who will be standing in front of
lira Bill alanine, that last round Tala. Ultimately for the Day of
Judgment after a long standing, the Hadees tells us where people
will get so fed up Allah subhanaw taala will bring the sun in its
form. It's called the sun, one or two miles of meal above and the
heat will be such that the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam said people
will be sweating from it. Some their sweat will be down to the
ankles, to the knees to the waist, some in one Hadees to the ears,
they'll be drowning in their sweat. And it will be so severe
that the kuffaar will say start the day of judgment we can take
this anymore.
And in some narrations as Allah subhanaw taala tells us the day is
like 50,000 years means it's like a long time nothing that we have
any clue about because everybody will be taken to account.
No shade, except when the shade when the ash of Allah subhanaw
taala is brought down by eight angels. Because there is a
significance of that too normally for angels
carry the ASHA of Allah. On that day there will be eight as this
tells us, because Allah is going to be angry that day and four
angels are not enough to handle that Ash because of the impact of
that. And then Allah subhanaw taala will descend in his own way
to start the day of judgment. So
on that day, nobody if you believe in the day of judgment or don't
believe it's not a true matter of choice, it is everybody whether
you believe it or not will stand in front of me.
In the dunya we had a choice. You want to stand in front of Allah
subhanaw taala all night you can stand. You never want to stand you
don't have to stand.
You can choose to bow. In Rocco, you can choose to prostrate in
front of Allah and Sajida or you can say no, I will not on that day
there is no choice. The choice is only in this life.
Amen on that day,
your mind and Lila only for Allah, the command is only a loss.
So we will all stand in front of our last one without somebody who
does not believe that will act in ways of disobedience with act,
ignoring all of these.
And if we say we believe and we still do this, then there is a
problem between what we are saying and what our heart believes
So, then after this, misgiving, this wrong taught you alone, they
thought that there is no such thing. Allah subhanaw taala has
negates all of those wrong ideas that there is no accountability by
saying Kerala. Kerala means denial of all of their misgivings all of
their wrong thoughts. Allah subhanaw taala saying not at all
this is not the case as they think. In other words, there is
definitely a day of judgment. Then Allah subhanaw taala says, in a
Kitab al Fujairah, Luffy si G, woman Andraka, mas si je, Allah
subhanaw taala, saying, Indeed, surely the record, the Kitab of
the Fauja, the record of what of the deeds, scrolls, recorded of
every word,
written in bold, large writing, that cannot be edited, and every
action from small to large, whether it was done openly or done
secretly, every penny of cheating, every milligram that was
shortchanged related to the street,
is recorded in a book by the recording angels. And for the food
jar, which is the wicked people who were rebellious who
transgressed who sinned, who burst out Fajr means to burst out
of all the norms in violating the laws of Allah subhanaw taala
violating all the restrictions, the hermit that Allah subhanaw
taala has put restraints violating not caring about Allah Subhan
Allah sang the records of the Kitab of the Fauja. That kind of
person of a sinner is in a safekeeping which is called C
gene. And the words to Gene
the root is Sujan. In Arabic Sujan means prison.
Now, where is the surgeon where this record is kept, we don't know
there are different opinions, some say this is in Janome itself. Some
said this isn't the depth, the seventh deepest level of the
Earth, which itself is like Janome, because that's where the
molten lava comes out from.
It is kept somewhere in a prison vault, if you will, because of the
word cision, which is a not narrow dark space, as the scholars have
said, by the angels, and keeping, having a record in in this place
called C gene is already a condemnation that this person is
going to Johanna.
If my record, may Allah protect us from all of that if a person's
record isn't a gene, that means the verdict of Janome has already
been given?
Allah subhanaw taala says, and what
do you know about Sachin? Would you that new madaraka messaging
what's a genius? I mean, it's a scary thing. Even where the record
is kept, is scary.
Then Allah subhanaw taala says Kitab and myrrh comb, its record.
It's a book. Morocco has multiple meanings means it's inscribed like
when you see stone that's been inscribed. It's also used for
something that's embroidered something that's written, if you
will, with a permanent marker.
Why is that Marco? Because it cannot be edited. It cannot be
changed, it cannot be rubbed off. It cannot be erased. It's a
permanent record. And another it can also mean that it is actually
cataloged and numbered record
that every single thing is there.
So Allah subhanaw taala, saying every single thing is in this
book, and Allah subhanaw taala tells us elsewhere like on every
Friday we read surah Kahf Allah subhanaw taala says, what would
the Al Kitab and the books the Kitab will be laid open to see
what Tara imagery mean? Ambush 15 Min Murphy and the Muslim the
criminal will look at it with fear.
What is in here? Why are Kowloon and they will say you're away
Latina Oh whoa, well on us same way.
Molly had al Kitab. What kind of a book is this? Now you go through
Serena tang walla kabhi Ratan in LA saw a book. It's amazing. It
has
not skipped even the smallest nor the biggest, except it is in.
Well why did you do mammy Lu how they are and they will find in it
everything that they did right in front of them
Wallah yeah the limo Rob Booker and Allah subhanaw taala does not
wrong anyone in the list there will be nothing there that we did
not do nothing there that we did not see nothing there that we did
not hear nothing that that it did not say there is nothing there
that we did not touch whatever it records is accurately recorded
that cannot be changed.
So, if a record of a person is in St Jean, it is in announcement of
doom of a horrifying end the perdition Hellfire
when Allah subhanaw taala says
way looing Yo Ma in de Lille mukut baby and this idea comes many
times in the Quran in elsewhere way lol again way
destruction. Johanna on that day to Al mocha the moon and the moon
are means those who not only Catherine. GABA is to lie GABA
means to deny it they are related, Ellen MacArthur Boone, those who
denied the truth,
what kind of truth they denied the toppling of Allah. So they denied
the rissalah, the messenger ship of Rasulullah sallallahu. They
denied the Day of Judgment, they denied the Quran, as Allah has
revealed word.
They denied it and they called it lies.
They ignored it, they ridiculed it, they strove against it to
prove that it is wrong. In other words, the ultimate of
disbelievers who not only just said okay, I don't believe but
they made an effort to deny it and go against the Quran. way low
little mocha DB
Alladhina you can the Buena yo MIDI. And last one Allah here
specifies that these are the ones who denied the day of judgment by
their tongue, that's the most obvious but others who claim that
they believe in this we may some of us may be guilty of it, or by
their actions acting as if they would not be taken to account for
the ultimate judgment. And people who consider themselves above the
law. Because of the connection because of the power in this dunya
because of the wealth, anyone who does those things thinking I will
not be caught is really has a serious problem of iman in your
MIDI in their own form. You can't they're gonna be your meeting,
they are denying the Day of Judgment.
And then Allah subhanaw taala says, describing who these people
are, he says, Well, now you can they will be electrical Lumosity
then I think
and no one
other than those who are cooler today nothing
every sinful transgressor.
martyred in Canada means to transgress against the rights of
others
violate the rights of others. So they committed sins against
others. A theme means they were sinful in the sense, they didn't
have any inclination towards any goodness, even when opportunities
to do good presented themselves, they did not care.
So not only they violated others, they didn't do anything that could
be taken as sort of, let's take this as a collateral do some good.
That's why we have the Hadith of the Prophet salallahu Alaihe
Salam, he teaches us the meaning of witches. Every time you sin,
follow that up with a good deed. You know, because it can be used
to negate that not only it's not a free license to sin, but if by
mistake by weakness, you do something, you do Toba and you
follow it up with a good deed like charity or do helping somebody or
something like that.
So Allah subhanaw taala is telling us that these are the people who
deny the Day of Judgment, who because they are transgressors,
they are sinners. And what is the sign of this transgression? Allah
subhanaw taala says either Toots La La he aiya tuna Allah a salty
will a wedding. That when
Hola, hola says when is our tutor La La he is to know when our Iots
the Quran is recited in front of him
recited to him, he says a salty hula when he ridicules, it is all
these are fairy tales. These are just tells, you know made up
stories myths of the old old people they used to talk we, you
know we are in the 21st century, we are technically advanced and
you you believe in all of this nonsense, that there is a day of
judgment that there is a hellfire and there are gardens there and
there is a fire there. These are just stories of so on. So nation
got destroyed and the wind destroyed. These are all stories.
So, when these iron shots are recited to them, of the past
nations of the future that's going to happen of all of these, they
ridicule it. And some of the narrators have said that some of
these the US baboon uzun, the occasion of revelation may be
related to the one of the arch enemies, the avowed enemy of
Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam a person by the name of another YBNL
Hadith, who used to frequently say this, whenever he heard is or
something.
But this holds true for all of them the aboriginals of the time,
of that time, and the Ebola hubs of those time, and the aboriginals
and Abu Lahab of today. And we have that today. If you go on the
internet, you will find many sites that are making fun of the Iots of
Allah subhanaw taala of Quran they are the Islam of what have an
analysis of the Quran and taking proportions of the eye and making
fun of same thing as out you know, wildly different format.
Now, why is this person doing this? Why is he not seeing the
truth? Why is he not recognizing this as revelation from Allah
subhanaw taala for his salvation for him, to help him to guide him?
Why is this happening? Allah subhanaw taala says what is the
cause of this attitude can bind Rana Allah Palooza him Mecca, New
York Sybil, first of all Allah subhanaw taala starts by saying
Allah, this is not the case. These are not stories of the Old. This
is the reality killer mean absolute deny annihilation of this
idea.
What is the cause bail Rana Allah colluvial Run means an
impenetrable veil, a thick black coating, Allah Kaluga him around
their hearts Mecanoo example from what they earned.
What they earn means the kind of actions the evil the sinful acts
that they have done, has covered and surrounded their hearts so
that no light of guidance can penetrate. No matter what signs
are brought, they will say I don't believe
therefore the ability to see the truth as the truth has been taken
away. They're blinded blind of the hearts maybe not still seeing with
the eye but blind.
can see the troops can see falsehood as false. May Allah
subhanaw taala makers of those who see truth as truth and falsehood
as false.
Mac no exe boo and this is not for any other thing. But this is a law
of Allah. That every time you sin as Rasul Allah, Allah Allah Allah
some tells us in the Hadith that most of you know that every time a
person sins a black Nocta so soda, a black.is, put on the heart. But
if this person does Toba, it is removed, it's cleaned, but if he
continues to send these black dots continue continue till the heart
is blackened. This is the example he gave us. And that is what
neuron is that covering around the heart and because when that
happens, then no matter what happens, the person will not
accept the truth.
So, with this, they in reality are
sort of,
blocked from the guidance of Allah when they cannot see. They cannot
see the signs of Allah in the universe, nor the revealed were
the Ayat of Allah are the signs of Allah, which is the
so what will be the consequence of this blindness of this in this
dunya
There is consequences of this in the ACA, Allah subhanaw taala
tells us
cannula in the home and rub him yo maya in Lamotrigine boo boo. No,
indeed,
they will be veiled by a barrier, which does not allow them even a
glimpse of their Lord on the Day of Judgment.
You were blind to the signs of Allah and the dunya. You will not
see Allah subhanaw taala in the Hereafter, because you don't
deserve
a person who was blind to Allah subhanaw taala they put a barrier
on their hearts by their sinful acts and disobedience on the Day
of Judgment, Allah will compensate them with a barrier which will
prevent them from seeing their Lord
they refuse to see him in this dunya so, they will not be
permitted to see him in the
now,
what is this there is an there is a Bashara a good news in this if
there is an ishara
there is an indication what does it mean? Because you were blind to
Allah's commandments, you will not be able to see it also means that
if you did not have that barrier in this dunya if you saw Allah's
Iots and you believed in Allah, then you will see on the dirt.
So this is indirectly
telling us that the opposite of it is also true. And this is a
Bashara glad tidings that we will ensure Allah see our rub on the
day of judgment. And this is a essential belief of the of our
Sunni Muslims and Asuna Gemma that everyone will see Allah subhanaw
taala the believers in fact some of the companions the Sahaba
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa he was selling say, Yasuda will we
see our rub?
Look at that excitement
Rasul allah sallallahu Sallam give them an example he says
on the level of butter when the night of the full moon where there
is no clouds, do you see the moon? Do you have to strain to see the
moon do you have to come in it's obvious you said you will see your
rub as clearly as you see them. So
not only that,
the seeing of Allah the witnessing of Allah Subhana Allah is the
greatest of all sides, this is the greatest of the rewards of Jana
because when the the a bad will see Allah subhanaw taala even the
agenda will become meaningless for that time.
And again, there are levels some will be seeing Allah subhanaw
taala once some like if we can say in our time monthly, some
annually, some weekly, some daily and some depending on the level,
every day whenever they want.
So, Allah subhanaw taala is telling us and this is the
interpretation on Imam Shafi Imam Malik that we will see Allah
subhanaw taala and this idea is an indication of that, and there are
plenty of Hadith that
support this belief.
So not only will the disbelievers going back, those who are nice job
a job but have a barrier between them and Allah subhanaw taala on
the Day of Judgment, what will then happen,
some inom Lasala Jehane
after being deprived of this greatest of all rewards of the
vision of Allah subhanaw taala they will be made to enter and
roast in that jackin that blazing Fire. So look at the ultimate of
reward and look at the ultimate of failure.
And then once they are put in Johanna, then there is more
from my your Kalu had a lady
going to be to consider
Allah subhanaw taala doesn't say that he will address them.
Allah says you call Lou This is a passive form means it will be set
to them.
The sound will come to them whether it's the angels or some
other. So it's an unknown where the sound will come from. But in a
way it's also telling us just as Allah subhanaw taala will deprive
them of seeing him. Allah subhanaw taala considers them such filth
that they are even deprived from hearing it.
So sound will come to them and what will that sound say
addressed? They will be addressed by the sound. Ha the lady this in
Johanna, this
is going to be here to cut the bone what you used to do
you deny the Day of Judgment you denied the Hellfire here you
are that's a
terrible thing that anyone who hears that had and this is what
you're used to tonight Jen
now Allah subhanaw taala After addressing the Mutasa Fein and the
food jar and the people who have run on their hearts, lightens
gives us the opposite picture. Because giving the opposite
sometimes enhances the other seen also to see the contrast. Allah
subhanaw taala says color no In contrast, in Nikita, but a variety
Lufia li when we're mad as raka Miley Yun keytab Mark home
the next seven Iots Allah subhanaw taala is talking about the honor
and pleasures that will be enjoyed by the Abrar
Abrar
is the plural of people who have bear
in bear comes from root is also bar and some of you know bar and
Bar. Bar is for land bars for ocean. So bar has a study bar
keeps changing. So those who were studying their belief, studying
the righteousness the bearer abroad. Now there is another
subtlety in this that this form of plural Abrar is called Gemma
pillar, it is a plural, but not have a huge number of people, but
few
that have RA are not going to be
billions
we already know from the Hadith of the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam
said that out of every 1999 are destined for the heart for the
fire. So you already got one out of 1000 going to gym, and then
among them, there are levels. So there will be few Abra Makara
Bonas ins I think we we studied this in
no we have not studied yet Surah Archaea but Allah mentions that
from earlier generations there were many more later generations
they will be few the Makara Boone who are really brought close to
Allah.
So Allah subhanaw taala, saying that the record the Kitab now it
is opposite the Kitab of the full jar the rebellious sinners was in
St. Jean the prison account, the account the
records of the Abrar, the righteous those who are stable in
the righteousness, we is in something called Ely Yun in
Juanma, that I can actually use what is a Leone comes from Lou Lou
means something that is the highest of the Most High
that Allah has kept this record up as opposed to the surgeon in the
depths of the earthen fire in the the highest of heavens. So, the
scholars have said that this is this record is kept in the seven
heavens close to the ashes of Allah subhanaw taala because of
the flu and some have said under the ash and then Allah subhanaw
taala says what will tell you about the status of this, because
in this is kept the permanent record of the righteous here is
the what you might call, you know the gold medals that are going to
be put on the necks of the people who are going to that this is what
is awaiting the righteous believer This is the it will have the
assigned places in Genda for them, the books that are given to them
that will come in their right hands as we studied in the last
book of the in the right hand in the book behind the left hand
behind the back.
Guitar boom, boom again, inscribed so that nothing can be raised.
Nothing can be edited because nothing will be lost of their good
deeds.
Yes, hello will macaron Ramune it is witnessed by those who are
macaroon. The angels who are closest to Allah swans are not any
angels, no caribou, they are guarding these it is in their
custody. Because this is what is going to be given to the
believers. The registers and the
highest, containing all the noble deeds, who Allah Subhana Allah has
already destined will enter Jannah and the different levels of Jannah
by His mercy, they are witnessed, and they are guarded by the angels
that are closest to Allah kept safely, nothing is lost, nothing
is misplaced.
Now Allah subhanaw taala then says this, that's where the record is
and what will be the consequence of this record being there. Allah
subhanaw taala goes fast forward through he doesn't mention the day
the day of judgment for these people Allah subhanaw taala says
in a bra Luffy name, indeed the Abrar are immersed, they are
surrounded everywhere by name, in all direction with delight and joy
and pleasure, which we have no idea of, because we know some
pleasures in this dunya which we feel pleasurable. Allah has given
us a taste of that, which always come to an end in the dunya. But
the the pleasure does not come to the end. The pleasure is
multiplied by a factor of infinity
in its true sense, Laffy nyeem Allah subhanaw taala is not saying
there is name for them he is saying they are indeed in immerse
means everywhere there is delight. It's not just something in front
of me
Luffy name
Allah RR ln ra e ki yong the room they will be on as we mentioned
before, on these elevated throw thrones are special couches with
lots of canopies and cushions in the most comfortable ennobled
honorable places, young children looking around looking around
enjoying the scenery, everywhere what they see every site has its
own pleasure and they keep changing. So there is no monotony.
Everywhere they look, there is no
why because they restrain their glances in this dunya they
restrain the desires in this dunya Allah Subhana Allah says now take
there is no restriction for
those who did not will test the opposite.
Then Allah subhanaw taala gives another description of these
people he says that our referral fee would you hear him not Bratan
nine tahari food, you will recognize them herefor
because of what would you pay him their faces? Nada, nada means
glowing, resplendent, illuminated, nor
why because of name of the enjoyment of the joy that they're
feeling. Sometimes we see in this dunya we have glimpses, somebody
who's had such a great happy news, you see the joy on his face, the
faces glowing
because of all of that their faces will be radiating
with joy, and there'll be a special note and glow. And Allah
subhanaw taala also gives this new to people of that type in this
dunya
and sometimes when you see a truly righteous servant of Allah
subhanaw taala, a wily of Allah a real obedient person, you feel
people with Kalb See, they see nor in the set, you know, there is no
that's only hearts that can perceive that because therefore,
everybody else it looks like anybody else, but they perceive
that No, on that day there will be no now there is another Ashara in
this there is another Bashara good news in this because the word
Allah subhanaw taala has used here, he says that you will
recognize them and who is this Quran coming down to Rasul Allah
sterilise, that you will recognize them what does it mean that you
will be in their company? So it's a Bashara for us that if we are
like Rasul allah sallallahu alayhi salam will recognize us that means
we will be with it.
But it can also be used for those who come later that Allah is
telling us that we will recognize everyone who reads the Quran with
it will recognize those who have
been blessed with this. Know that ALLAH SubhanA nada rotten nine
from all the joys then Allah subhanaw taala says you scone
mineral heaping Maktoum and they will use count and they will be
given to drink they will be served and we have descriptions of who is
going to be serving them that creatures that Allah has created.
They'll be going around in circles serving them a drink cholera
hating Maktoum Rahim
is something that is the purest of nectar, the purest of the drink
wine if you want to call it but wine we have bad cannot
connotations with wine because intoxicated. So it's mentioned
elsewhere, that that does not intoxicate it's, it's a pure drink
that does not intoxicate the likes of which has never been tasted. Or
we cannot even imagine because it's the most exquisite This is
what Allah has prepared for his chosen servants. Their description
that its taste is unique. Everybody tasting it will taste it
differently according to their taste of what they like. And that
taste will keep changing. It's not going to be monotonous that okay
I've had enough I want every sip will taste different and it will
evoke the most pleasurable of taste in the
mouth Maffetone something that is sealed
hotton Katama means a sealed, it's just exclusive. The bottle has not
been opened, it's sealed.
created exclusively one on one this is for you.
By Allah subhanaw taala
you remember, I think we covered in
previous Surah that on that day Allah Himself will serve will give
to drink.
So imagine that. Then Allah subhanaw taala says
Krita whoo hoo misc and what is sealing this? The Seal of this
Krita is misc. misc is the mask, the
beautiful unique fragrance of the mask of Jana. We have some mascara
which is used in perfume. But this is the mask of Jana. Allah
subhanaw taala gives us samples of things here. So we know we can
relate with it. But it's not going to be anything like this. It's
something very, very unique. Allah subhanaw taala seen actually the
ceiling of this drink is made of this beautiful fragrance.
Then there is a key word Allah subhanaw taala says will feed the
Annika family at another facility
a fever Lika. And for this
in that remember what Janome say hi The this is what it is that you
denied here unless we're fee then in what has been described of
Jana, in this matter in this competition. Let those who compete
that those who strive compete with each other. The naffaa su
means something like Navassa breathing in and out in and out
somebody coming this the Nafeesa means you're running somebody
someone I had someone else's I had someone else's ahead so compete
was sorry. Oh Allah. Allah wa Jana DiNardo has similar to a lot.
Alright, that limiter Allah subhanaw taala says, compete with
Sario the Sahaba who move ahead, strive here Allah subhanaw taala
Stanny you want to compete Don't worry about the dunya let people
compete for this. It's very temporary. compete for this what
Allah is promising you. The key is to strive to compete with each
other for Allah Sprenger for Allah's rewards for Allah has the
vision of a Messiah and so who gets there, those who tried
to this is where we as believers have to put our competition we
want to compete not in wealth and jobs and how much of I have of
this dunya that Allah is written, compete where it will count where
it will be yours forever. There is no inheritance in Jannah that you
die, it will go to somebody else. Everything here is inheritance,
except what you have used. Everything else belongs to your
inheritance. Rasulullah sallallahu. So it makes up what
you ate, what you want, what you use and what you send for the
everything else is not yours.
It's your inheritors and it's Uncle Sam.
Okay, so strive, doesn't it make sense strive for that which is
permanently yours, and which is God no comparison with this.
The greatest of joys and blessings of the dunya is going to be like
less than dirt in front of what's in general.
Which doesn't mean that we should be tankless for what Allah has
given us here but the real competition is for that. Then
continuing with that Allah subhanaw taala talks about this
drink. He said we're Misa Zhu Min Tasneem
that this is a mixed drink. Now here we have mixed drinks in this
dunya Allah subhanaw taala in this era Hayek, that is Matome is also
a mixed drink. It's mixed with massager what is mixed, when it is
something called Tasneem.
Then Allah subhanaw taala explains in the next higher AMI you should
have will be held in Mocha lagoon. It is an iron it is a stream, it's
a fountain. It's a river of Jannah. And some narration says
this, The Sneem starts from the ocean comes into the gym. It has
special water,
special water,
it's blessed, it's got it's unique. And in this drink that we
are drinking that sealed, the Sneem is mixed to it.
It's not saying it's all of the SNI sometimes name is extended and
that makes it so wonderful. Now Allah Subhan Allah is telling us
that Tasneem is for the mockery boob eignet Yes, shabu beheld
Makarenko, the Makara boon, those who have achieved the highest
level of closeness to Allah can drink from
the stream itself as they wish. It's not giving little mixed in
something, they can be there and drink as much as they want.
Because, again, this gives us impetus to compete even more. I
don't want to be just believer who enters the lowest level. I want to
be among the Abrar I want to be among the Makara goon, the one
that's closest to Allah subhanaw taala that is the competition that
we need to get into.
Now Allah subhanaw taala after describing all of these to entice
us to, to to encourage us to compete in the right competition,
Allah switches back to the disbelievers beginning of what the
disbelievers attitude is Allah SWOT analysis in Alladhina hmm,
who cannot mean Alladhina amanu Yeah, the Hakuna
that what is their attitude. For example, in the Macan period,
Allah subhanaw taala says, their attitudes ajira More or less
Mantella calls them the ones who are criminals, or Jerome who comes
from John John means crime. Those who were habituated in
transgressing and committing crimes against Allah, the
criminals, the Moogerah. Moon,
when what what about them in Alladhina Agera mukana Minella
Dena Ave when they they encounter
the believers, what do they do? You have Hacohen they're laughing.
They're ridicule them, they make fun of them, look at these people,
they have achieved nothing, then nothing, that they've got dreams
of the hereafter. You know, all of so every time they see them, they
ridicule them. This is what the the kuffaar of Makkah used to do
to the believers because they were poor, because they're because they
were saying that we believe in what's coming in the Hereafter
they would ridicule them. And Allah subhanaw taala says will
either Maru be him Yetta Rama zoom. And when they they pass by
them, for example, in the streets around the Kaaba, they, they yet
have Amazon day, they ridicule them,
and how do they ridicule them yet again, Amazon means to use eyes
for expression, such as we use, like we roll our eyes or we wink
you know the winker t shirt. Look at these guys, they look at these
losers, they believe and they have judgment and they have nothing and
we control everything. So every time they would pass the
believers, they would look at each other and wink at them at each
other. Look at these guys make fun of them, or roll their eyes, that
sort of thing. Allah subhanaw taala saying this is what they
used to do. This is how they ridiculed them. What Eden kala boo
Illa Aileen Le he will call a boo. Psyche. When they go back. When
they go back to the, to their families, to their people to their
fork. They go back fucky he means happy and gleeful and joy, because
they're making fun of the believer. So in that such a good
mood. They're passing them, they ridicule them, they make some
comments. So, you know, * today they say oh, ragged look at
this *. Look at this brown, * look at this one. So
you know the
Islamophobes and they wink at each other, and then they go home and
they're laughing. They're happy. Look, look at these guys. So this
is one scene Allah subhanaw taala is showing us of the coup Farah
Makkah and the same by extension of what Muslims face in some
hostile societies, whether it's,
you know, from people of the belief of the book or it is from
the policies that we are still being people who believe are being
ridiculed or, or the dream of 72 virgins. They'll make fun of this
or they believe in this they believe in gardens. So Allah
subhanaw taala says
they
make fun and they're happy with either a home Corlew in half hula,
a lead ball loom. And when they see whenever they see the
believers, they say how hula a love or Loon, these people, these
Muslims, these believers they are indeed the doll loan those who
have gone astray. They are fools, because they're not with us. We
are the successful we are in power, we have wealth, we have
worldly success. They are failures, they're losing out. Why
because they are led astray by this man they claim to follow
sallallahu alayhi wasallam. So they are indeed the bolo.
And then Allah subhanaw taala says, well, ma RC Lu Ali him how
faylene Yet Allah says this, this these disbelievers in a line this
message will not send us the Guardians over these people. They
will not send to make verdicts over them they will not send to
guard them to guide them to say okay, you know come with us. It is
not their responsibility. It's not their job yet they they continue
to ridicule them and pass judgments on them. Because they
are not the Guardians Allah subhanaw taala told Kira and
Catherine you know, they are guardians are the angels the you
know Allah subhanaw taala tells us about that in previous price.
Now Allah subhanaw taala. Again, switches back to the final
portion. In the last three ayat, Allah subhanaw taala tells us
about the reality this is what they're laughing about. On the
contrary, the Haqiqa is that on that day, when these who are being
ridiculed will enter Jannah
and the other ones who are ridiculing them will enter Janam
the roles will be reversed. The scene will be just the opposite.
What does Allah smart Allah says, folly Yo Ma, that on that day?
Alladhina amanu those who believed
Mineko faria the Haku they will be the believers will be laughing at
the disbelievers just like the disbelievers laughed at the
believers now on that day, the believers will be laughing at them
Whoever laughs last laughs best as it said right. Hello and where
will they be Alan aura Ian's are on same idea is repeated on their
thrones on the with the canopies with the cushions looking around.
And they will also be looking down in Janome at these people and
laughing at them having the last laugh smiling you used to laugh at
me. Now look were you
then Allah subhanaw taala ends
by saying hello ask a question. And this question is then asked to
the believers. So we Bertil could fall Mac and we have Hello?
Hello Reba Suba from Sava
have the disbelief the kuffaar been justly rewarded given the
third lab Allah uses the word lab in a sarcastic way instead of
saying punishment. Have they ever been appropriately unfairly
unjustly given that the lab for what they used to make? Can we
ever alone for what they used to do? This is a retort it's a
question for what they used to do of evils and ridicule. Have they
been given the reward? This question is being asked and the
reward is what Jana
the reward is
using the word reward because it says so will instead of punishment
or that Allah smile chooses to call it so AB MC because this is a
day of justice.
And this also brings us back to the beginning that not one gram
not one penny should be cheated. And on the Day of Judgment, Allah
will not
do injustice. pennies, what are the grams? What are the milligrams
worth to anyone to the believers or the disbelievers so it ties
back
Do justice you will be dealt with justice.
You do injustice you will still be dealt with with justice, but the
justice for injustice is not something to, to, to take lightly.
So Allah subhanaw taala ends this. This is the end of the
disbelievers and the believers in the hereafter for what they used
to do, among them, cheating people in trade, to taking the rights of
people, shortchanging people, ridiculing denying the, the Ayat
of Allah subhanaw taala, opposing the Messenger of Allah subhanaw
taala laughing and ridiculing the believers, all of these things,
Allah subhanaw taala says will come to nothing, because there are
consequences. And we have to know that there are consequences not
just in the Hereafter, there are consequences of all of our actions
in the dunya good for good, bad for bad, every single action has
consequences. And there is one Hadith that has something relevant
to this,
about the consequences in the dunya of our actions, where the
Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam is reported to have said that there
are five sins in this one particular Hadith, that there are
five sins for which there are five consequences and he's not talking
about in the arteries talking about consequences that we
experience in the dunya. For example, He said, that the person
who breaks if you break your word,
Allah's Loise he will allow your enemy to gain control over you.
Destroy, just remember now look at the state of the believers. And
then you will see some of these. Then you said that the person who
abandons observing the Haram what Allah has made haram and wants to
do whatever they want their desires, Allah subhanaw taala will
afflict them with poverty.
Then he says that those who indulgent promiscuous promiscuity
and illegal
intergender relationships outside the bond of NECA Allah subhanaw
taala as law is this in this dunya they will be afflicted by diseases
and epidemics. I
mean, we've had examples of that like the AIDS and things like that
came before and again, we don't know what this current pandemic is
as a result, and then is the relevant one to this hadith the
Prophet sallallahu sallam said that those who cheat shortchange
others.
Allah subhanaw taala will subject them to deprivation and to famine.
No produce the earth will stop producing for them.
And then he said, Those who stopped paying zakat, Allah will
will hold withhold rain.
Two there are consequences that are specified. These are laws that
Allah may we call them laws of nature.
There are laws of Allah in nature.
And there's another Hadith in which there is a sixth thing
that's added that those who indulging usury, riba interest
based financing Allah subhanaw taala says that there will be
widespread mortality and killing.
So, Allah smart Allah is telling us that there are consequences in
the dunya and the ultimate consequences in the hereafter.
lesson for me, is to have Yaqeen in my meeting with Allah subhanaw
taala
the Day of Judgment, the accountability that records will
be there in which nothing is hidden. So what kind of a record
do I want to present to Allah subhanaw taala what record do I
want to be witness to myself when I stand in front of rabbil
aalameen which I will
so let us prepare our records, that we will be happy to meet
Allah. Because the Hadith says the one who looks forward to meeting
Allah Subhana Allah Allah subhanaw taala looks forward to meeting him
and the one who doesn't want to look forward to meeting Allah
Swanton. Allah doesn't want to meet him. Why? Because he's afraid
of what he's bringing. So let us prepare ourselves for this meeting
with Allah subhanaw taala will lie it could be today. It could be
tomorrow, because we don't know how quickly how many people every
week we hear now, as we get older, especially
