why, why John who Lana, who jetten hear from
you we praise Allah subhanaw taala and we sent Peace and blessings on
the best of his creation.
Our leader, our Imam, our beloved Rasool allah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, we ask Allah subhanaw taala to increase us in beneficial
alien knowledge that brings us closer to Him.
To not let our hearts swerve from the right path.
We ask Allah subhanaw taala to show us truth as the truth and
help us to follow it and show us falsehood as falsehood and help us
to stay away from it.
We ask Allah subhanaw taala to show His mercy to us through the
Quran. And to make the Quran An imam, a leader for us full of
light and guidance and drachma.
We ask Allah subhanaw taala to remind us through the Quran, when
we forget
to teach us that which we are ignorant of, and to
bestow on us the ability to read it day and night. And to make it
an evidence in our favor on the day of judgment and not against
us. I mean,
so the surah that we are inshallah embarking on today is called Surah
Al
which is the 56 surah and is made up of 96 eyelets.
So we'll see how much of that we can cover today.
And as we've been going through the Quran, we've been going
through the makan Quran this is also another makan surah. And
therefore, as we have mentioned before, short iets read make
dealing with some main themes don't lead of Allah subhanaw taala
or rissalah messenger ship and the messages that came through the Day
of Judgment jana na, the end of what's coming.
So that's going to be the general theme of this. And this surah
follows Surah or Rockman, which we have covered a few months ago.
And it sort of almost is like a continuation and it complements
Surah Rahman and we will see how it does that.
So there are certain special things about the surah that are
mentioned in the Hadith.
As you know, Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was a youthful 63
years old when he passed away some Lala videos and
he had very few white or gray hair. In fact, they could count it
like 13 or 17 or 19. And that's what the Sahaba used to sit and
look and see how many gray hair does he have? So one day, so you
know how we might go around the hola one I will record us a dip.
Said to Rasul Allah, He said Ya rasool Allah, you are becoming
gray.
He felt you know, rasool Allah is developing Whitehead.
So he said to say Abu Bakr Siddiq, he said Surah Hood Awatea al more
Salat Amaya Tessa alone and in a sham Sukhumvit have made me Gree
in another narration, he said Surah Hood and it sisters have
turned my hair gray.
So what is common in the surahs is
You're talking about the day of judgment and the severity of it.
That for Rasulullah, salallahu alayhi salam, it was very
burdensome. It was heavy, to to listen to these eyelets and what
it's going to be, obviously,
his head wouldn't be turning gray about himself.
His Gray was turning here because of concern for the OMA what they
would go through on the day of judgment and how severe it's going
to be.
So that's one narration about this. And then there is another
narration that one day during his Khilafah say the North man read
the hola on the third Khalifa went to visit a major companion, who
was an expert in the Quran by the name of Abdullah Al Masud, through
which all of the Hanafi madhhab comes,
who was in his terminal illness. He was very, very sick about to
die, so the Khalifa went out of respect to visit him.
And he said to Abdullah Abdullah Masood, should we call
the doctor for you?
He said, The doctor is the one who has sent this affliction to me. In
other words, the only one who can cure is Allah and he already
knows.
Then they said,
Should we set up is sort of a fund
or was Eva for your daughter's he had some daughters.
He said, There is no need for that, because I have taught them
Surah Al waka
and I heard Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam say that whoever recite
Surah Al work every night, will never be afflicted by poverty and
need.
And there's another narration of the fifth righteous Khalifa, Omar
bin Abdullah Aziz was the Khalifa. And he was married to Fatima, who
was the princess and all rights because from she was from that
they by that time they become kings. So she was a princess and
they were very, very wealthy. And in some narration that on every
birthday, they used to wear in pearls and jewels on the scale and
whatever it was give it to the poor.
When Ahmad bin Abdulaziz one day, I'm not one to Allah gave him
Tofik he called for tomorrow, the Allah
Rahmatullah his wife and said, Fatima, Allah has given us
everything. You know, why don't we give everything
you said, Now this is a princess she says as you wish, so he gave
everything away.
Everything away this is the Khalifa. Soon after that Kim Reed
and Fatima came to Omar bin Abdulaziz and said Can I have some
money to buy new clothes for the children?
So, Omar bin Abdulaziz called his treasurer and said
Do I have any money
to buy children for eat plots for my children? He said yeah Khalifa
your, your monthly salary has already been given. There's
nothing here.
So he said, can I borrow some money? This is the Khalifa.
So the treasurer was also trained by Omar bin Abdulaziz. He said
yes, you can borrow some money.
But do you have a guarantee on your life from Allah that you will
be able to pay it back?
So Omar bin Abdulaziz said, leave it he said Fatima. Tell the
children to have some
new clothes for it this our children should know what it is
like you just take it for granted.
When he was dying, his brother in law who was born to be holy, if at
some point who was very sort of corrupt lot of money changing came
to me said You know, you've really made bad decisions in your life.
You have 11 or 12 children, that you're leaving them nothing.
Can I give them some of my money? He said No, keep your money.
Because your money is not pure. He's telling his brother in law.
He said that they are going to starve. He said no, they're not
going to starve. Because I taught them what sudra
now, our youngsters shouldn't get the idea that instead of doing any
work, I'm going to get rich reciting Surah RP every night.
That's not what is meant by this, that Allah subhanaw taala will put
enough Baraka in your life that you will not be needy number two,
the surah will give you what's called Knapp
Which means contentment with whatever you have. So you will
never feel needy that oh, I need this, I need this, I don't have
this. So there is a lot of Pana. And the meaning of all of this is
to encourage us to read the surah every night if we can
even memorize it or read it, if you read it every night, guess
what's going to happen in a few months,
you would have memorized it.
So therefore, because of this further, I'll this is one of the
most frequently read sources.
So the themes are in the beginning Allah subhanaw taala talks about
Alba waka, which means the inevitable event that is the day
of judgment.
And Allah subhanaw taala talks about the division of people into
three groups. Remember, I said it's complementary to Surah
Rahman? How many groups were there in Surah Rahman. If you remember
three of the guests what were the three groups?
These are the right hand people in surah. Rahman.
There were two grades two grades in Jana remember the higher grade
and the second grade, and one of Jana, that's what was mentioned
three grades. So say three grades I mentioned. Yeah. So three groups
of people Allah will talk about and he talks about the recompense
the Jezza what they are given, each group is going to talk about
their levels. And then that after that Allah subhanaw taala talks
about his power and his creativity, and the signs in his
creation, to make people understand who Allah subhanaw
taala is because the main focus is that people are denying that this
event is going to happen, that there is going to be a day of
judgment there is going to be resurrection, Allah will raise
everybody up. So Allah subhanaw taala talks about his creative
power, and therefore his ability to recreate and resurrect
everybody for the PA. Then Allah subhanaw taala talks about,
briefly about the Quran itself, the revelation of the Quran, which
is also what they were denying. And then Allah Samantha, in the
end talks about death, and the destination and destination of the
three groups that were mentioned earlier, the three groups are two
groups of believers, Saba Kuhn, the forerunners, you know the
people who are ahead of everybody, then the average believer and then
the disbelievers, so people who have the right people have the
left and a savvy upon asylum.
So whenever we
read the Quran, there should be some it should be interactive, our
hearts should respond to interact with these Iots when we are told
told about these groups, is not for the purpose of okay, they are
going to be three groups. So I will check off you know, there are
three groups one this one is no, the question is, where do I want
to be? That's the whole purpose of it. What characteristics do I
have? Where do I fit in my life right now. So we need to interact
with the Quran, reading it, understanding it, and then
applying what we read, you know, it has to come it's not enough to
just accumulate knowledge.
So now we start with this introduction, the beginning the
first six ayat which talk about this event that Aloka that is
going to occur, which is essentially the destruction of the
earth. And then the resurrection, Allah will raise everyone how old
the biller ministry on your Raji
Bismillah you're right Manuel Rockne either wrap it
Lisa Labor Party hair care diva, coffee Dr. Roth
either are rejecting or do Raja boo certain jiba lupus cannot
have.
So, Allah subhanaw taala says,
either work or it will work.
What means something that falls that happens? That happens quickly
and suddenly either what I'll work on Alpha Kappa is the event which
is the Day of Judgment, the destruction of this planet and the
universe and the whole system that Allah has created, that is the
workout Allah subhanaw taala says either workout and when that event
happens when that thing drops, you know, when it happens, it happens
suddenly, and it also implies that it is this is mentioned is workout
at
means in the past tense as if it has already happened. Because what
is implied when Allah subhanaw taala uses past tense for future
events means it is certain that it is going to happen.
So, Allah subhanaw taala is telling us that this is an event
that will definitely happen as if it has already happened. And it is
irreversible. It's not something like okay, it was going to happen
but it got deflected. You know, there's a hurricane coming, but it
took a turn towards the Atlantic. It's not like this is going to
happen. So Allah subhanaw taala says, Now when we do use the word
either work ITIL this era is used before something terrible that's
going to happen. It's like saying when that event happens when so
what's scary and that's one way. Another way is if you read the two
IR together in our cattle mafia, laser lever criteria, Kadima, then
it means, when that event happens, nobody will be then becomes an
adverb. When that happens, nobody will be able to deny it, there
will be no denying yet. So that's another way of reading. Now,
there's a third way of reading, if suppose you need it continuous
from Surah. Rahman, because that ends with that. So Allah subhanaw
taala is telling you this reward and that reward and that's all of
that is going to happen and the next day is either evocative. That
means all of that will happen when this event occurs. Okay, so there
are different ways of looking at it. But it all brings us back to
the same thing
that this great event is going to happen. Now, some of our scholars,
it najiba and others who are very spiritually oriented, they look at
it in a different way. This is the general understanding, they said,
he said, that this can also mean that when that spiritual awakening
happens to you,
that event, then all of what goes through, everything changes. Okay,
that's just another ishara in it. Then Allah Samantha Z, Lisa, live
up it her caregiver, that no one will be able to deny it, because
it's happened.
Okay. And this, especially for those because while this was being
revealed in Makkah, people were denying this not going to happen.
They were making jokes that you know, how can it be that we become
dust and bones, how we become back? How is everybody going to
come back? How is the system you're saying the skies will go
and the sun will go and oceans will go and mountains will how
that's not going to happen. So Allah subhanaw taala, saying all
those who deny will never be able to deny it when they see it.
Half either to refer referred means to bring down Rafa means to
raise them. So Allah subhanaw taala is saying this event will
lower and it will raise and then he doesn't describe what is being
lowered. And what is being raised. means this is an open anything you
can apply to that. So the common way to understand what most people
understand is that some people, the status of some people, will be
brought down, for example, somebody was very big and
connected and, you know, powerful and rich and everything else.
On that day, this person might be brought way down, whereas someone
in this dunya nobody knew them, they were considered nothing. Yet
with Allah their status was such that now they are brought up. So
one understanding of that it will bring some down and raise up is
according to the status of the person with Allah, someone will be
brought down there's a Hadith of the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam
about a big man, big man both physically big, weighed heavy, and
had lots of power and thing he said on the day of judgment, He
will not be worth the wing of a mosquito of the same thing,
because the word in the dunya by dunya standard is very different
than the word Tov with Allah. Similarly, there's another Hadith
that a person who nobody pays attention to, he has nothing but
when he raises his hand, Allah subhanaw taala does not allow what
he is asked to not happen. So there are people like that.
Now, what else can you what can else what because it's open What
else can be so people will be elevated to Jana ranks in Jannah.
And they will be lowered into the depths of Jannah raising and
lowering similarly, we have scales on the DOJ, somebody's scale will
be raised. Somebody's scale will be lowered. Similarly, things that
are high
Sky's gone. Lord.
stars, moon, all of that mountains high gone down. Things, Lord, what
are under the ground that will be raised up? What is that?
The most important the people who are going to undergo hisab they
will not now you're raised appraised for himself. So all of
those things can happen.
Because Allah subhanaw taala will recalibrate the whole system
according to the truth, not how the worldly powers were.
Then Allah subhanaw taala again talking about the destruction he
says, either rejected or the Raja.
Raja means it will be the earth will be shaken so violently
through its whole depth in right now when you have the worst
earthquake. It's a few tectonic plates on the surface of the
earth. They move a little bit and the whole thing falls apart nine
eight 7.5 Richter stick and it's localized. This earthquake is like
no other
because it does Zuzanna are the zeros Allah.
Shea on our Vemma last one, the whole earth will be shaken and
leveled. Rejecting Adora just shaken so violently the entire
Earth and through its full depth.
And then what we look at today what we considered the most the
strongest things mountains, nothing can move the mountains you
know you need a lot of dynamite to blow off this and the mountains
and mountains and mountains you look at everywhere.
Allah subhanaw taala says we're BUSA tinggi ba Lopez. BUSA boosa
Bassam means to be ground into small particles, things that seem
so formidable so strong will become without any form. Because
Allah subhanaw taala will grind them with the shaking. So they
will come down they will collapse for cannot have a mumble and they
will become hubba hubba is if you're sitting in a room where the
Abdullah Abbas said where the Sundra sunrays come through, you
see the sunrays coming through and you see some particles floating in
there. That's hover.
What's the word of that? Can you collect that No. Mountains will
become like
think of it if you've ever been in a desert or dusty place, India,
Pakistan and somewhere in the north. These windstorm cups is
just everywhere. And then when it stops, it's gone. The Mountains
will be like that dust and when it stops, there is no mountain left.
So Allah Subhana Allah is telling us that this is what's going to
happen. This is the distraction and then Allah subhanaw taala
talks about the three groups that will emerge. Last one Tala will
have the angels organize things into three groups.
As we said those were mentioned also on Surah Rahman we're going
to as Rajan fell off and you will be human beings will be as watch
we know soldiers here what is meant by as large as groups of
people, not just couples. Okay. fellas are three groups of people.
And Allah subhanaw taala says for us herbal may manatee mass herbal
may mana means people on the right okay. Then he says now as hobbled
my mana it is in wonder how wonderful, how noble how lucky you
are, how fortunate and How blessed are the people of the right hand.
People have the right hand what does that mean? In in our culture,
the right hand always stands for something good and left for the
opposite. Similarly, on the Day of Judgment, the people Allah's ash
and again, we're making it like this, we don't know any idea of
the ash on the on the right of the ash will be people have the right
hand on the left of the ash will be people on the left hand and
there will be a group right in front of Saba code. Similarly, we
also know that on that day books will be given
books will be given in the right hand for the people who are on the
right and put books will be given on the left hand or behind the
backs of the people on the left because those who are failure. So
Allah subhanaw taala says How will my mana people have the Yameen of
the right
these are the people who are righteous, they will be there
their their hand, the books will be given the right hands
essentially these are the main residents of Jana
will come to the cyber con which are in the elite. Okay. And then
Allah subhanaw taala says, well, US herbal mushroom at a mass
herbal mushroom and the people of mush Amma on the off the left, and
how wretched and how unfortunate are the people of the left hand
because most of these are disbelievers, and they're going to
Jana.
And if you remember from the hadith of Rasulullah, sallallahu
alayhi salam in his journey of Mirage, he saw a man sitting
With a lot of people on one side, and a lot of people on one side
when he looked on his right, he would smile and laugh when he
looked on his left he would cry. And he said, Yeah Gibreel who was
this? He said, This is your father.
And the people on the right are those souls who are saved, we're
going to go to Jana. So, he is happy to see them and on the left
are His children who are going to go to jail.
So, these are the groups
was sabe Pune sad upon Masaba means to compete race a Saba Kuhn,
those who go ahead you guys race
who runs in a race wanting to come in last nobody any normal person
in any competition wants to be ahead. Now, this is a real
competition a survey upon people who moved ahead of the rest you
know, the front pack the four runners.
Now, a sub cone
was cyber Pune saga Pune last one says this repeats the word.
The subject and predicate is the same in Arabic This Moqtada same
word to tell us
the importance of these people, SABIC won't, they are the sub A
goon. Okay, so Allah subhanaw taala stresses their status by
doing this, because they were first in the race, they put the
Accra in front, they put Allah's orders in front, they competed to
be first in every good deed, when there was a charitable event. They
wanted to be the first one there was some, you know, Ibadah they
have to be the first when something good needed to be done.
You know, the Dow needed to be cleaned. They were the first when
you know, mustard needed something they were the first in every good
deed they were ahead. So cyber Konosuba Kuhn and Allah subhanaw
taala says Willa, Ecole Makara bone, these are the ones who are
brought brought near, brought near to who?
To Allah subhanaw taala to the Arusha from last month, Allah so
they are brought right in front of Allah subhanaw taala. So, when we
go to, you know, a game, or you go to a play, the first row who sits
there, that's the most expensive, the special people who can hear
Allah subhanaw taala is giving special priority to the subject
when you will be right in front of people on the right hamdulillah
that's where majority of us are going to be. But we always it's
not enough for us to say oh yes, they'll be Saarbrucken but I'm not
no I want to be in them. And of course, Allah protect us from
being the people of the mush.
Then Allah subhanaw taala says, fee Jannetty nine, they are in
gardens for eternal pleasure,
name
of blessings that never end that cannot be imagined. Then Allah
subhanaw taala says fulla to mineral or welline or Cali,
LogMeIn. And so the people who are in the Saba cone, the elite, the
foreigners, he said, for Latin, there is a large group mean an
overwhelming from the first were Kalyan and a few from the
laterals. Now, what does that mean? So some of the scholars have
said, this means the previous nations, they were the first
nations we are the last that there were a lot from not from them, and
few from us. But the majority said that's not so because the prophets
of Allah Edison described, essentially, of the the, the rows
of people going to Jannah 75% of them are going to be from my alma.
So it cannot be Cali. But So some have said that this means that the
early generation of Muslims, there were a lot from them from the
Sahaba and the tabby. And from later generations, there's still
some again, to tell us it didn't say there's nobody from later
generations if you're not from the Sahaba Tavin you cannot be from
yes you can.
The Sukiya because the prophets Allah, Allah and Islam also told
us, he told his Sahaba that you are she said, my generation is the
best generation than the generation after that. Now think
of all the young we are 36 generations later and
so much lower, but what did he say salah, listen and he told the
Sahaba if you were to live 1/10 of the commandments of Allah 1/10 10%
You will go astray
and there will come a time when the people of this ummah who
follow 1/10 of the commandments, they will be successful because
It is so much harder. We are not with the professor we are not with
those early generations. We have so far removed and the temptations
and tests and trials keep getting bigger. So don't get discouraged
that Allah subhanaw taala chose to put us in later
generations
now Allah subhanaw taala goes on to describe the rewards of the
Cyberport Allah Surah mal Duna they are now just it gives us a
picture and again these are pictures they may not be be
pictures only what we can identify. So when he talks about
solar you know, it's it's a bed it's a couch it's a throne, but
what we think of couches like this and beds like we haven't thrones
like yeah, we don't know the the ones in Jannah okay, this is just
a name. Allah pseudonym maluna Maradona means that they are woven
with precious
stones, so special things that they will be sitting on with
again, Alejandro taka, they are sort of reclining, you know, just
relaxing on these special things that Allah has created. He is
talking about your furniture of Jana and moto Karbolyn. They're
sitting facing each other and obviously they'll be talking to
people and they will only with the cabling with other, you know,
people who are a Saba cone, you're not going to have any losers out
there because that's what Allah Swanton has has put.
So this is telling us the furniture in brief
Yato who I am will Daniel McCullough dunya tofu those who
have just come back from from Omaha should know the word your
tofu from
the laugh your tofu so going around them would be
Willdan young boys
makalah don't who are eternal
what they would they be going around doing what serving
so some of the professor own have said that these young boys would
be the children who died before the age of accountability so Allah
will give them that form.
Whether they're children of Muslims, whether they're children
of non Muslim because of their innocence, Allah will give them
that and they will come around just like
to do that. Be Aqua Bo about eco SIM in mind. Now last month, I was
talking about the drinks, he said with cups and you know, jugs that
pour and with what we call chalices that don't have handles
with overflowing with the drinks of gin
min mine the Para dizzy and drinks that are just overflowing
then you describe the characteristics of these drinks
lie you sat down and how well are you on set for these are drinks
because sometimes translated as wine that they will not Stupefy
you they will not intoxicate you and they will not
give you a headache.
Hangover
none of you know this but what we read for people who drink the next
day they have a headache. You know the feel hungover? They don't feel
right. So that intoxication ends badly if they haven't gotten into
an accident or something else. So Allah subhanaw taala saying all of
that is for them. Why? Because they restrain themselves from
those things in this dunya they stayed away Allah so now I will
give you drinks that are better than those. Okay.
And then Allah swatter talks about the cuisine what will they be
eating? He says we're fat Yeah, Tim mimma yet to higher on Fat Cat
means fruits and fruits of Jannah as Surah Rahman we said everything
in pairs and some Allah subhanaw taala mentioned and as we
remember, you know, pomegranates you know things like that. And all
the other fruits, these are just names they're not there'll be some
similarity but they'll be very different in Jana.
Before I get the mimma yet the higher on means they will be given
if they are to choose whatever they want. So it's not like you
know, this is only this is available, this is available, this
is not in them anything any fruit you want. Allah subhanaw taala
says there will be choices and choices and choices of fruits that
will resemble and there will be others that are exclusive to
general.
So, some scholars have said that if you want to be a good host of
people like that, Jana, when you serve them, you force them fruit,
because that's one dimension
Fruit first and then he says we're laughing retiring milestone and
then the meat the flesh of birds, whether they're chicken whether
they are Partridge, whether they are ducks, whether the whatever
of birds mimma yes the moon whatever they are whatever they
desire. So, Allah subhanaw taala mentions the meats after he
mentioned the fruit first. So, this is just for your information.
Now, what is going to happen if you eat so much in Jannah?
Are there any bathroom facilities ladies rooms in Jana?
No, no then what? Because the system that Allah has created does
not produce any waste or excrement.
So, all the food first of all the food will not make you full and
sick and lazy, you will not feel bloated. And to digest all the
food, just a little bird would fragrance will come out all the
foods digested no no other product
in this dunya Allah has created what you eat comes out in a bad
form over there, nothing
you drink, you don't need to go. You don't have to hold your
bladder, nothing like that. It's gone. This is how Allah creates
the people of Jen.
So we've talked about how they're sitting out there chit chatting
with each other, what they're drinking what they're eating. And
now companionship. Or hold on I mean
the word or translated frequently as what
virgins what that's not what whole means. Okay with that virgin part
will come separately
from Hora or Huria which means something that is very bright,
beautiful and lightened color. So essentially Allah is describing a
complexion. And I mean is the plural of it now I know means
large, beautiful eyes, Allah subhanaw taala saying they will be
creature companions will be creatures with a beautiful
complexion and large beautiful eyes. So he's only talking about
facial beauty Allah has not described the rest of just the
facial beauty before lean.
So essentially, Allah talks about then he will talk a little bit but
again,
everything in Jana is beautiful, what you have what you eat what
you and your companions are beautiful. Um, thirdly, look, look
ill Maknoon the example of these creatures that Allah has created.
And Allah has created an engine, they will not from here that when
they Yes, our spouses were here will be beautified and we will go
into but this is a separate creation just like those will of
Allah do. So I'm sorry that the example of this is like loop loop
loop loop means a pearl. And those who know where pearls are, do you
know how pearls are formed? They're in a shell that's closed,
you have to crack it open to take the pearl out, which means nobody
has seen the paper nobody has touched upon.
It has been secure till the person who opens it.
That's what that version means means no untouched by anybody
other than the one who it was, or this creature was meant for.
Allah subhanaw taala has used the feminine gender gender for them.
So
that's what the Jezza I'm not all of this. Why just
be Magkano yeah Yamalube This is not just this is just the Mercy of
Allah Subhana Allah based on what this is Jessa Jessa means like we
said, Jazak Allah means May Allah compensate this is the recompense
this is what is given in exchange for, for what you use to do. Yama
and what they used to do the Amel, they did in exchange for that
Allah has given them this. Okay. So the people, the society upon
their goals, their actions, their life was led in a way that Accra
was always in front of them. So who are these people? Some said,
these are the emir, but that's not just the Gambia has the highest
status. But then you have the sit the cone, you have the Shuhada.
You have the O layer, Allah, all of these, these are all people,
martyrs. They are from those people and others who don't fit,
but who lead their lives in a way to make that as their main goal in
life.
Then Allah subhanaw taala says,
again continuing on their their experience lie yes Maulana fie her
loved one wallet thema. Now, the conversations they will not hear
any level level means something, a speech that is not beneficial or
that harms, but that's wasteful or
sinful speech, you know, gossip, she said, he said this said they
did this all of that
backbiting bad language, foul language curse words, or nothing
like that will be no taunting like today, people, you know, they can
say this freedom of speech, I'll say whatever I want, and they
insult you that nothing, they will experience nothing like that.
So
why is that because they protected themselves from something like
that in the dunya. These people did not participate in that.
Neither themselves nor they listen to people.
So if somebody wants to back by it, and you say, I don't want to
hear it, what happens, the backbiting stops, that guy cannot
talk to anyone else.
What encourages Backbiting is you're listening. So I didn't say
anything, but just you're listening. So what should be the
attitude for our youngsters and for our adults, when somebody says
something that you said, this sounds like backbiting you should
please stop. I don't want to hear this. That's it. That's what so
no, I want to tell you, okay, okay, then I'm leaving, I must
leave. Because otherwise you are considered an equal partner, even
though you didn't say anything, because you've encouraged so these
are people who protected themselves in the dunya from the
tongue as if you remember we've talked about it before. The
Prophet sallallahu Sallam told one of the major companions why the
bingeable, one of the major companions who we sent as a
governor to Yemen, one time he said, to Rasul Allah rasool Allah
SallAllahu sallam said to him, he actually held his tongue like this
is a good phallic ahead, protect this
protect this stop it. Just Jana Sula will be held accountable for
what we say. He said May your mother loves you in our that's one
way of saying
Is there anything else that will get more people put into Johanna
on the dragged on the faces into Janome then the produce of the
tongue the tongue is the one that produces more since than any other
part of the body.
That's one last one Allah has given as to locks lips, teeth and
still it out of control.
So
the profits are aligned so long
that we lose some ganache we lose he used to be silent for long
periods that's the best way of protecting.
So
we what we learned from this is if we want to be in that group, we
need to protect our tongues we do not we're not thema yet the main
sin
sinful speech, either in itself it's sinful or it encourages
people to do sinful things.
And for our youngsters now the culture is that every second word
is a curse word.
If you listen to music,
the lyrics every single word is a bad four letter word.
Okay, this is not what Muslims we do not listen to that listening to
that is also forbidden. And we don't talk like that just to look
like the rest of the people. Okay, so we should be very careful about
our mouths because today the mouths of people have become worse
than toilets.
young Muslims you can hear them
why are they the mouths worse than toilets sisters?
Why are the worse than toilets
any idea
you can flush the toilet
you can flush the toilet but these months you cannot stop
so what will be set to them? They won't hear any of those no sinful
speech no longer what they will hear in Taylan Salomon salah they
will only hear what does mean Salam and Salama, there is no
conversation so everybody can know. What does Salam mean?
Everything that gives you peace that is protected. That's not
harmful. That's salah.
So only beautiful things will be said things that make you feel
good will be said nothing disgusting.
Then Allah subhanaw taala talks about the next is 27 to 40. He
talks about the next grade of believers the US herbal Manos
herbal Yameen means the same thing
as her will Yemeni mass. How will you mean?
The people of the right hand as we talked about, these are the
believers and he says that's how will you mean it's just to stress
the importance that How
fortunate or how blessed other people have the right now, Allah
subhanaw taala has told us elsewhere in the Quran that these
are believers that believers are of three different categories
okay? Because not everyone is going to be
Alia, Italia Bon Bakr, Siddiq, or they are alarm
you know, some of us are sinners, most of us are sinners, we are
weak. Sometimes we are good sometimes we are not so good. So
it's a mixed bag we have but yet we are believers, right? We make
mistakes. And Allah smart Allah mentions this in Surah Fatar he
says, from our rational Kitab Allah the minister fina Mineva
dinner for men home of ilm, only enough so he will men whom notice
it, or men whom Saba whom Bill higher art is Nila Delica, who
went further Kabir Allah subhanaw taala says then we give the book
the Quran as an inheritance to those who Stefania who we chose.
So the believers are not okay I am a Muslim, Allah chose you to be a
Muslim.
Allah is the One who gave you that
minibar dinner from my servants he says for men no home volumen
laughs among them among the believers. Those who do volume on
themselves who does don't mind themselves by committing sins so
believers can commit sins yet they're still believers. Okay well
men home notice it who are in between most of the day do you
know all the for it this came from the major since you're You're like
an average good believer.
Well men humps are baffled by both parents and those who race and
compete with each other in good deeds. This is the cyber core. So
lumps Rantala tells us that there are these three categories and
that's what we have here. The second category the second
category is how will you mean will include those who have done wrong
against themselves Muslims who make mistakes who sin and also do
mostly good but they're not the cyber con which we've already
talked about.
So in this would be those who are valuable enough see my Sydney to
do one on the enough's the MCPA set
who are sort of average good Muslims.
Average good Muslim today who is an average good Muslim, you know,
by our standards, masha Allah, He is like a wedding. No, he's not.
He's like a very ordinary person. Okay, because our standards are
big. Anybody who knows a little bit of Quran Quran or his habits?
No, he's not half his. Well, he's an island. He went to seven years
in school. You go seven years in school, what you come out with
seventh grade? How much do you know? Nothing?
Because we become so anybody who gives a lecture is a scholar. No,
he's not a scholar. He's a student. Our standards have become
so low. Okay, so we shouldn't be a limit. Masha Allah, you did Hajj
*. They give title Alhaji is the font basic.
Basic. Right. So we should be a little careful with these things
that the grades that we give are sort of not proper. So about this
group of believers fee sit them both. They are among gardens that
have this tree of siddur. Now, again, the name of southern is
common here because in western Arabia, you have these trees that
are called trees of siddur. In fact, Cinder is used in the water
to give it a sweet aroma when we wash the dead bodies.
And the Silla that are in Arabia have a lot of thorns. So when
Bedouin came to us, and we said Ya Rasulullah Salallahu Salam, Allah
has put things in Jannah which will cause harm. So what is
serious but
then also Allah says he said the remark board is considered
backdoored means whose thorns have been removed and have been
replaced by fruits and beautiful flowers with sweet aroma so the
name is the same but and resembles but it's so they'll be among
Indian English translation. They call them low trees. I never know
Low trees but if you want a name, it's a low tree.
So
this is the image what? Tell him mangoes that some of the scholars
have said are plants with big leaves. Do you know plants with
big leaves? Anybody?
Bananas and plantains. Now, what do the Arabs not because there's
nothing like that that grows
in the deserts or in the in the Hejaz. They don't know bananas
then why this example? Because no because they are trees like that
grow in Yemen.
So they knew about these things. By the way, Yemen you sound
anything like Yemen
Yemen remember the right yeah main and CheMin
everything to the right of Makkah.
That's how the name Yemen came is all of that was Yemen. And
everything above and to the left of Makkah is from Shama and sham
Okay, that's how those names came. So they knew about this and they
said so they'll be leaves again not saying that banana trees
there's something that looks like that. Mundo means they are very
tightly packed with with with fruit with different types of
things that you know any kinds of fruit and what else well, Ville
limb mum don't have ill means shades. Now what does the shade
means if you were in the in the picnic on on one Saturday is wn
everybody was looking for the shade why?
Because gives you a nice, comfortable place. So Allah
subhanaw taala says that he has put shades in there the purposes
for regulation of how much light you want so that I don't get too
burnt and I don't get too hot. in Jannah Allah Swanton has created
shade shades so there is shade now the shade can be shade of a tree
but in this experience of the dunya anything that any shade
comes from an object if there's no object, there's no shade, the
clouds have to come to bring a shade right? A tree has a shade
the House of Worship over then Allah subhanaw taala can create
shade without any object. Okay, but there is also shade of the
tree because it's mentioned in the prophets Allah Allah Allah salons
Hadith he said in Jana, there is a tree and if you have a faster
Arabian horse, that races a person right there riding it fast nonstop
for 100 years will not cross the shade of the tree, just to give
you an idea of space and time.
So there is shade Allah Subhana Allah is telling us that they will
be sitting and shade also means is comfort security.
My in my scoop, that water that's poured of Jana, that is my school
that is gushing that is flowing. And over there, the laws of
surface tension don't apply. So it's not like water, water is
going to be running like this. They're not tracks, you know,
there is no passages in which water has to go down and water can
be running up like this. Can you imagine water going like this? It
doesn't because we have surface tension which makes it like this.
But over there, and it will be going anywhere. And the beauty of
it is if you're sitting there and it's going there and you wish that
it done that way it will turn that way.
And we know four different sort of rivers of Jannah have been
mentioned what are they made of?
milk, honey,
water
not don't say alcohol
which is translated as wine. It's translated as one but one that lie
on the phone.
I said don't rely on someone doesn't give you a headache
hangover or in toxic
forgetten cathedra Farquharson from its cathedra unlimited not
like in this life law mark to our team well, no they are not
something that can mark to that stop. So okay. I want to have
mango mango season is all finished. There is no season
anytime you want as much as you want. While I'm no it is not
forbidden for you like it was for other Melissa
during this dunya also, you know you saw I've got diabetes I can't
eat so much mangoes no problem. Eat as much as you want.
So you will not be limited or I can't afford this fruit because
they're charging. So no, there is no financial restriction. There's
no physical limitation
There is no health limitation it enjoy. Allah is the host with
photoshooting Marfa again those raised couches foolish Marfa
elevated with their companions again Murph, it was mentioned
forum in here Allah subhanaw taala has not used the word but same
implication because he goes on to say in check now Hoonah Inshallah,
we have created them again female gender
perfectly
in sha as Allah wanted a new creation, again talking about
those companions that we mentioned before as soon as Allah subhanaw
taala has created
a creation that is very special Fajr Allah Hoonah Africa and we
have made them avocado untouched. That's where the word virgin comes
in. Okay, and the word virgin is not restricted to women. Because a
man can be a virgin is untouched. The woman can be a virgin, so
don't take it in that means pure.
Pyroban Utsava autoban means full of love exclusive love for their
spouse that Allah has paired them with a Traba same equal in age
which is about 33 years prime of age. Never getting older. Never
aging never sagging face doesn't droop the you know no wrinkles, no
nothing. No Botox, use all the Botox here if you want but if you
don't use Botox here then Allah will give you a better day so you
were happy with what I gave you. Okay?
But if you use it, you can you can get a fatwa on that from people
I'm not giving you that fatwa.
If I didn't know about cholera autoban Utsava let us have billion
mean for the people have the right is having me
fool lotto Minella wheeling a large group from the early
withdrawal lotto Miniloc and a large group from the latter people
who come after. So that's where the majority of us look like we
are going to fit, what our goal should be, Inshallah, if we are
there Alhamdulillah these are all people of Jannah. But we shouldn't
be satisfied with okay, I've entered the lowest level I'm good.
Good to go. Hum yes, you're good to go. But
when you see people above then you know. So let us all what is meant
by this. Allah subhanaw taala is describing this he didn't have to
describe the subject call to encourage us positively, you know,
there is a higher grade, there is a higher grade, you know, you want
an A plus, you want more than 4.0 average, you have some extra, we
strive for this, that's where we need. Okay, extra credits with
now comes the other group members wanting to protect us from that of
disbelievers well as Habu Shimoyama us harbor chemin. The
people of the left and what how wretched are the people of the
left? Fee SEMO mu humming Simone means hot winds I mean we
experience hot winds in some countries, you know when the
temperature is 120 degrees and then 30 degrees even 140 degrees.
And you see that I remember when I used to take my bicycle going to
medical school in the month of June you came out of your house it
was like somebody slapped you in the face the the wind was so odd
that give you an idea that look what's ahead so prepare for it. So
Simone is that hot fiercely hot wind that just burned the wind
burns? What I mean and when you have that heat what you like cold
water not just what a cold water but you have humaine boiling water
boiling scorching water. You want coolness from this when you drink
it will burn you inside.
Well then Lin my may mean yes more. Will again shade but shade
of what shadow of what? Black smoke
yeah more.
Can you imagine? Even the air is polluted with smoke black hot
winds black smoke because that's what burning and what's the fuel
of Jannah what's making all this come out that black smoke is
coming from what?
Stones in humans in gyms that are burning that this is what it's
coming and they don't finish.
Loud body deal well actually nothing called
nothing that will refresh or soothing them in no no
Other characteristics why are they in this situation? Does that mean
like to punish the bad? No, he doesn't. But He has His justice in
Nam Kanu Coppola, Delica mutrah theme because indeed these are
those who before. They used to indulge in every kind of luxury
and pursuit of the pleasures, regardless of what Allah said,
there were too much into this enjoyment of the dunya Halal haram
doesn't matter. This is what they used to do. So we have to be very
careful. Yes, Allah subhanaw taala created this universe for us. Yes,
you can enjoy it within the limits and the limits of Allah let you
enjoy only good things. All the things he is forbidden are things
that are harmful for you. And you look at these people who are
enjoying,
they're enjoying what they're called enjoy is always something
haram and they suffer the consequences.
Whether it's broken families, whether they're suicides, whether
it's drugs, whatever it is, enjoy.
Okay?
So that's the characteristics of those people, what can you so Runa
halaal, healthy, loving, and there are people who used to persist,
and some of them in the greatest of sins, the greatest of sin, of
course, is shirk. Then you have major sins like murder, you know,
like stealing, backbiting, cheating River, all of those
things that they used to. You saw Rona, they used to persist, and
they used to be in there into that just to go ahead in the dunya in
their way. This is a characteristic that people have
Jannah
and when they were reminded, what did they do like the Quraysh or
Kanu Jaco Luna either mitzner Hakuna Turabian why Darwin or in
Allama Buffon.
Our Abona
are bounded or when they used to say when they were reminded that
this is coming live within the limits of Allah they used to say,
when we die and we become dust problem, and alarm and bones will
we be in Allama ozone will we be resurrected again we and about a
William, our forefathers that have gone riffles. In other words, they
denied that this would ever going to happen. So they said this is
our life. Let's enjoy. You only live once. Let's enjoy. Okay. So
this is what happens. This is the characteristic. So when this is a
question they ask, Will we be raised again But can this happen
and they were not really looking for the answer? This was just to
ridicule to make fun. Okay, they didn't believe it. But Allah
subhanaw taala responds to those questions. Paul Yasuda allah
sallallahu Sallam tell them what in Allah will you know Allah?
Certainly. The first and the last few will be resurrect the major
one on Isla Mikati AMI maloom you will surely be gathered Majima ona
either me fat you know me caught when we go McCarthy appointed
place meeting place on unknown day yes you will be resurrected. You
think it's not gonna? Yes you will. And then what will happen?
Some in a coma you have doll Luna look at the goo then you who are
who are following the misguided mocha the one who denied who said
no, this is not going to happen to deny the truth. I can do nothing.
I'm in Sharjah not in Monza calm you will you will eat less. You
will certainly eat from the tree of xOP comb, and the tree of the
comb grows from the pitch of Jana. And it's a special tree which
survives on that fire.
And it produces fruit.
Fruit, but what are the fruit like? They're shaped like the
heads of shouting.
And they're like grenades. Because first of all, they're full of
thorns, and they will eat it because there is nothing else to
eat. And Allah will turn up the hunger that in spite of this and
they are full of thorns. Can you imagine you'll see towards
checkout, you still eat it? So it tells you inside and when it goes
inside it explodes. So everything pops out. Then repair. Start
again. Allah Swanton as you will eat from the tree of the comb.
It's not like oh, I'm not going to bother with that. Yes, you will,
because there's nothing else for those people.
For my little one, I'm in Halbrook to Allah subhanaw taala not only
will you eat for Malin with it, you will fill your stocks because
that's the only thing
and the more and this is all it's going to be doing. I mean, today
we get a little bit of stomach ache, you know how uncomfort
To build you become running to the hospital and there is no hospital
there's no ambulance that's gonna come there's no gastroenterologist
who's gonna come and take care of this balloon that is filled with
the poem. Okay
then what will you do that's your food is a comb.
Not yours the people disbelievers.
For Sharia buena La Mina Hamming and then on top of you will drink
because we are used to drinking after we eat her meme same boiling
scorching water that will boy which will burn you inside for a
shot Abona chauvelin So no we're not going to drink the boiling
water unless one on Thursday for Sharia Bona you will drink
sherbert him like thirsty camels drink that's what you will do. And
the other drinks of course we know you know boil pus and all of that
stinking stuff that's there.
For short, everyone assured when he had that Newsela home Yama
theme this is the welcome this is the entertainment on that day for
the disbelievers. So this is this section. Since it's been an hour,
I think we will stop here and we will complete this surah from 57
to 96 which then talks about the power of Allah smart Allah on the
next session instead of continuing this and we will Inshallah, open
this up for any questions and comments and I want to hear
lessons from what we have covered so far. In the first 56 is
kind of a Lahoma with the ham technician doing low low level
stuff.
