			Oh
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:25
			Ah, very
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:33
			innovative, always more than one. So a lot of nice recipes and lessons because this was 170 his
companions.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			And all those was really sad.
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:53
			Just a quick survey, who has felt like they've developed some context now or are developing more
context with this conference about the product's life than you had before. handling that? Well,
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:57
			as most of you Sammy, okay
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:47
			this subject regarding the prophets of Allah, Allah, He will send us capacity as a statesman or as a
military general on some occasions, right. This is a very politicized subject, but we still don't
want to shy away from it. Because there is nothing when understood correctly of our prophets of
Allah or anything sillens life, except that it is perfectly rational, and perfectly consistent with
this regime as a nurse to the world as being an exalted standard of character that never was, nor to
her will be bash. He was a pristine personality, the likes of which the world has never seen, nor
will ever see again.
		
00:01:48 --> 00:02:26
			And so it's important even if I'm going to reiterate or come at it from a different angle, some of
which I have no love energy, to make sure all of these concepts are settled with everybody. Because
as ridiculous as some of the allegations may be against our prophets of Allah or Iranian senator,
when you repeat something enough times it just sticks just sticks right? It just happens to Senator
let you spend enough money on billboards that America runs on Dunkin you actually start thinking the
coffee is good and it's not. Right. That's the power of remarketing. Bizarre isn't it? Why this 100
Even
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:28
			sorry,
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:47
			but let's get back into it. So, the first lecture regarding the battles of the prophets of Allah it
was said that you tried to dedicate two lectures to this conference. The first of them was actually
Eilat it was entitled, permission is granted to defend yourselves. Okay?
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:59
			Because Allah is diligent, after commanding the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to speak to
patients to play essentially a pacifist role.
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:11
			For the first 13 years of his prophethood in America, and the 31st, two years of his prophethood in
Medina, then he finally told him who DINELLI Latina your
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16
			permission has been granted
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:28
			to those that are being false, meaning to defend themselves because they were wrong. They have every
right to defend themselves. And so this is happening that
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:43
			women are looking after them. And then they were relentless. The year after this Polish Americans
that many Mexicans come back with an army three times its size as with 3000 people,
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:49
			and Allah azza wa jal, again, apprentice prophets of Allah Ohio said that victory
		
00:03:50 --> 00:04:03
			except for America, unfortunate mishap after that victory, people forgotten to command of the
prophets of Allah, Allah, you know, settler. And so this is very tragic casualties when they ran for
the spoils too early.
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:08
			And Allah reprimanded them, even though he was still leaving,
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:19
			even though they were still leaving or was still pointed out there to see when their rules are still
open. Allah told them I don't play favoritism for anyone.
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:32
			I am the God of mind. I am the God of justice. You follow the rules, the achievement and success the
victory of the child will continue being my promise to see but that's it. You don't follow the
rules.
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:38
			I told you you have the right to defend yourself because you're wrong. Because you are oppressed.
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:47
			I gave you the right to fight for my cause those who fight you That's it. You're not in it for all
the games.
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:55
			And this is important. My lecture was supposed to start at this point here now it was called
permission is granted.
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:59
			Not to defend yourself but to prevent aggression.
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:03
			And that's like the concept of
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:06
			the best defenses but
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:48
			you can be the best boxer in the world. If you want to stay in the corner, take the punches,
something's gonna get in. No one in their right mind. Has the country says that they have an r&d,
right? Where the past is this on the planet today. There's nothing shameful about us. Nobody does
it. Right. Everyone has an army, and all the superpowers of the world, whether we're talking about
America today with North Korea, telling them I'm not gonna wait till you get strong enough to knock
it out. I'm warning, stop playing with those military games, those toys, I want you out first, and
they're threatening to strike for everything for all of us a veteran won in 2003, in the invading
		
00:05:48 --> 00:06:23
			invasion of Iraq, this very country Senate, I'm not going to wait till you use your weapons of mass
destruction which didn't exist as normally exist. But the under that clause, they had an operation
watch didn't need to, for their own survival, the preservation of their civilization, they called
it, they call it operation terrorism, right? That's something called Operation shot and all which
didn't strike fear in the hearts of those who may think about getting brave. That's called
terrorism.
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:37
			So something is very good aside with the very fact that the prophets of Allah, I think he was
setting them after the third battle, which we'll discuss in a minute, chose to move preemptively.
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:51
			And he's not going to wait time and time again. This is the third time that they're coming after him
as a head of state. It is not contrary to His mercy that he wanted to put a stop to it how to verses
for the rest of the planet.
		
00:06:52 --> 00:07:05
			Does that make sense? Okay, now let's get to this third battle before he went offense. And offense
is the topic perpetual warfare, we will try to find time to talk about this third battle is called
the battle
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:49
			the Battle of the Confederates order the Battle of the armies, that's a battle of the the Allies
because essentially, this is when the whole world team that teamed up against your prophets of Allah
on April 7, and there's so much relevance for our age. Even if we're not talking militarily, we're
going strong western country is doing any of this right now. That's not going to be exciting. But
just pay attention to all the parallels the renewed relevance between our province of Allah right
instead of divided and even your own individual life, a man imaginary prepared in the whole world is
Confederation the whole world was seized up against
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:59
			so 1231321 The next year, that passed on we didn't get to talk about it was four to one odds. It was
3700.
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:26
			Then, now, let's go to that goes outside of Mecca allies in every body and brings an army to lay
siege on your homes on Medina with 10,000 Strong between Mecca as well the fan base today is
different trials, everybody is closing in on you because they're saying he's getting stronger, it's
now or never and I
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:34
			and so those things were so poor, they had no choice but to lock themselves in. In Medina.
		
00:08:36 --> 00:09:18
			They went to the northern border, which was the most vulnerable and they the trench that was about
10 meters wide. And they had a city to protect the tracks from weak points, this 10,000 equal firm
soldiers ready to take you out and they have like a little battalion of 200 people going from end to
end. Let them I will say that you're probably trying to make sure nobody gets it from a week for us.
But that's about all they run out of food. They said we could see the profits of Lamar, Idaho
Senator digging the trench with us when he shared got lifted. He had tire sewn on his back on his
stomach meaning letter off that they fasten it on there somebody it's almost like a compact your
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:42
			stomach. Well, you know, your type thing so you don't have an appetite. So you don't need to eat.
They were forced to do this. On top of that, it was so cool that they would dig holes for themselves
graze at night and go inside these holes. Trucks try to find some sort of war get the way do the
weeding. Have somebody reverberate back to them. That was it. It's
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:59
			to the point that we'll leave it alone. He says one night the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
told us who's going to go find out but leaving envoys a scalp find that with the up the opposite
armies that this is convenient about who will
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:41
			Little bit of new values and for them is paradise. These are the Soheila these are the companions of
the Bronx offender that did everything for Paradise they were willing to give up their lives and
carry this not because it's that promotes killing yourself, not because it's hilarious and
difficult. But he did he promote these values of Valor, because unfortunately, this is a reality in
our world. Lives have to be sacrificed to save more lives. For bigger purposes, we have statues all
over this country, by the way of people that sacrifice the greatest sacrifice to put up the flag and
to you know, maybe the army established. So I said, Who wants it for Paradise relief and said nobody
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:43
			good this time? It was that cold.
		
00:10:44 --> 00:11:05
			And then in such relief, I get out. So I had no choice. Like it was an option don't watch paradise.
They were darkness taught that in school. So everyone was like hesitating for someone else to take.
But when he come in, because they obey for you, that this obeying the prophets of Allah, I think he
was sending us only 15 of us and become.
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:34
			And then this didn't happen for a day or two or three, this happened. This was relentless. This
happened the night and day, no sleep for 30 days. And so you're thinking if you're in this
situation, the most of them are absolutely finished. It was just a matter of time. And those things
are finally done and the whole world seemed up against. But were they going to be finished? No. They
were going to come out of this stronger than ever.
		
00:11:35 --> 00:12:04
			But there was first one more test. They first had to face the earthquake, not the physical
earthquake, but the earthquake that rattles you're feeling the heat gun. Figuratively speaking, that
turns out even hotter on there was this. This period of earthquake happens to every people and
happened with every prophet before the victory of Maliki. This is a phase that has to come. The
final toughest tests.
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:50
			Allah speaks about on the planet, this bachelors that's just also not the bathroom with the trench.
Allah says Ed Jabu will be full of people. When we ask people when they came actually from the
Orpheum from the north side of the dealer, and from the MO wife, and we will, you know, the
earthquake was they realized that the non Muslims they were coexisting with the tribe and the
quality of the Jewish tribe and Medina had just sold them out. And it's gonna bring them in from
down from the south side. And so you're up here in the trench, and your wife and your kids are all
back there in the houses. And they just sold you out. The agreement was to protect the city
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:58
			together. And so when that news came, the promise officer took his shirt, and he put it over his
head to contain himself.
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:38
			And he said Allahu Akbar, Allah has promised us victory. But not everyone's gonna handle it like the
Prophet. Allah says, from above and from below where exactly to come to sob. And when the eyes like
blurted, no, you're so scared you can see straight that's what this verse is talking about. What
many people do will handle analogy? The Quran describes that moment that quick moment, say and your
hearts future throws you know you're so scared you can breathe because if your heart has been lodged
in your throat, Allah say and the hearts reason the throat weights with a little dude and Luna and
you start thinking things about life.
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:41
			You start wondering,
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:48
			they will not promise to support us. Then he says someone has moved and is with us.
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:59
			They did he say if we answer these calls in the answer, we start Republica right? And you begin to
think thoughts about Allah.
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:13
			Allah Setsuna Nick and the two together but we know that listen and zeros exaggerated. That moments,
the believers who are severely tested and they were claimed they will shape into the court.
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:22
			And so this has to happen. This is why you're waiting is a very important lesson it has to happen
when the when it happens know that the hickories
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:56
			as the other ISOs Don't you know think you're going to enter Paradise. Allah told the compatriots
and you don't know what happened to the previous prophets and messengers. They will wait till the
core of their lives is what it says, Are you willing? Are you not willing? Are you true on your sale
to up to God are not the followers of Jesus were thrown to the lions. They will. Allah says and when
they said and where is the support of God? Allah says, know that the support of God is
unquestionably close Allah in NASA money for you
		
00:14:59 --> 00:14:59
			but why?
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			So let that happen.
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:15
			Like, why is he let a person of the believers get to a point where they're at least shaking. They're
about to waver in their dream.
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:25
			Because this is a gift from Allah subhanho wa taala. If you're a believer, in order that is the
first angle of this gift, it's the gift of desperation.
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:48
			one of your biggest hindrances from accessing Allah, is you thinking you don't need it. So when you
show to this company, what's me you go to, so he kind of opens that window for you with a hammer
called hardships to break on the feet lies you've sold yourself throughout life.
		
00:15:49 --> 00:16:02
			So they had a number one less support system, it was the juice company, they're back in Medina, but
don't worry about it. Allah says that has also gone. So now that relief inhibitors, no one wants to
kill you, that's when it gets tested.
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:05
			There's also another reason as well,
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:14
			that how Allah only sends his support is a relief in the most appropriate time. Like think about it.
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:38
			If Allah a nice spot starts to start bubbling in someone's mind, when they're facing a hate crime,
crazy persecution facing all these pressures about their religion, think about yourself, for some
people, even for a believer is taking too long, could cause you to speak something or do something
that jeopardizes your faith. Right?
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:50
			And so Allah says his victory he did right before that happens. So if it was any later, they could
have hold it on their heads, they could have fallen out of Islam.
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:56
			They could have done what the hypocrites did in that moment. We'll get to those in a second.
		
00:16:57 --> 00:17:08
			What happens is the victory was eroded like they just last attendees, and then before it got really
tough before the earthquake moments, victory came, what would happen.
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:27
			You can tell your children, we were strong, we stood firm, we were patient. We were gladiators. We
were giants, we were Titans. You should have seen us as Alexa, you become very conceited. Right?
		
00:17:28 --> 00:17:48
			And so Allah Subhana Allah sometimes breaks you for your own good to show you only ironmaking
Muslims was only irate believers believe it is not from my support. You know, the Sahaba was saying
this when he was digging the trench. They were saying well, ma he No, no balls to the wall.
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:59
			What are suddenly Fantasyland, Sakeena, 10 Ralina. Whatever it is up there. In the in the Buddha?
Well, I mean, that was our to be that which is
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:07
			where you're going to do to be honest, almost a billion that I've been basing where I come from
under minimum guidance.
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:26
			Normally, we had everything that I can any charity, nor would we have ever prayed. Oh Allah, we
admit that. So send your tranquility, you'll need assurance upon us and keep our feet firm, we
confront us, this other rules group that keeps coming after us the third time they come after us in
our homes, you will
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:38
			they keep coming after us. They can transgressing against us. And if they wish for a clash, we will
resist them, we will resist them, we will resist meaning by your elbow.
		
00:18:40 --> 00:18:47
			And so Allah showed that in his brokenness, so that you can look back at that moment now that you
are about to slip
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:49
			up.
		
00:18:50 --> 00:19:38
			Oh Allah, I thought this is this about Obama question. Oh Allah, I entertain the passive part of
what you bring in your promise. See, Allah wants that from us. Like don't get conceited for the
other thing. You can lose open Allah, it's too late. And you can ignore Allah and it's too early and
assume yourself to be over all things capable. And so he protected that in that moment. He waited
for the Queen's is gone. He wanted it. He doesn't pay attention. So what happens is your life is a
very important personal lesson aside from the whole nation state military civilization on Survivor
discussion. You know, one of my shields, he says, I remember people are in his country, Jordan and
		
00:19:38 --> 00:19:59
			take into prisons wholesale every once in a while. He says, I remember people that were unbelievably
patient for so long going through everything like torture, let downs, everything solitary
confinement and he said that there are a patient throughout the whole way, five years 10 years,
until they finally get up.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:26
			promise that they're going to be relieved release, they're finally going to be acquitted. And then
when they're like about to like live, they do they let their guard down. They say I and as soon as
they're telling themselves I made it, I did it, they find that peace. acquittal news is this
information was alive, you're going right back into the prison cell, it's not really going to
happen. false report. Also remember, he says that at that point, the break
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:48
			he thought he held his breath for long enough because he didn't all he needed to do. And so at that
moment, that last disappointment was the final straw that broke the camel's back, and they broke
down. They were on the verge of losing faith. He says at that moment of love for the system. He says
there was some relief on the way around to show them it's not cheap.
		
00:20:50 --> 00:20:52
			It's me so long as you see me
		
00:20:53 --> 00:21:24
			What if you don't seek Me? The same exact incidence? When everything closed in on the there were
people who were saying that trench people who acted like they were Muslim, because the Muslims don't
want to back in the races again, it seems like oh my god, so long as they're waiting, I want them
and if they're not willing already fracturing, as they call them, whenever in the hypocrites this is
all well back to this is the third official of the whoever is also the Liza. Allah says we're in the
		
00:21:26 --> 00:22:11
			loop in Milan, Milan, Allah wa SUTA who interview those that had diseases perversions in their
hearts and the hypocrites they said a lot is messenger promise does nothing but lies to telling us
fairy tales. And so they said it will come under the sea levels, that we are going to have the
territories, the lands of Rome in Persia, the two superpowers of the planet are going to be affected
by Western influence. And we can't even get up. They said a very vulgar word. Basically it means to
use the bathroom. This is one of us can't even get up to do number two right now. That's actually
what he said. And so Allah we recorded this in a fortnight, and not just that, they start getting up
		
00:22:11 --> 00:22:12
			out of the trenches walking out,
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:14
			they just leave.
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:24
			I'm not gonna do this. Allah azza wa jal says in that same exact tough hour, whenever we do that, as
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:49
			our rasool and one of the believers saw the world teamed up against them. They said, You see, the
passive part is fine. But they didn't act on it or speak about it. When they speak up, they contain
themselves they saw Allah's help. And they said, This is what Allah is messenger promise was ALLAH
for power rasool Allah his Messenger, which was
		
00:22:52 --> 00:23:31
			basically the whole world for the team of Augustus and they were truthful about us which means that
everything else they said about our support coming must be true as well. If we could see an incident
pulls out of each person their true colors what matters that doesn't mean that the matter what the
schema and that puts persecution that suffocating moment Allah says only increases in envy and only
increased sense of mission they just got more and more comfortable with online bots and so when that
happens then the victory came when I had to do the application level and no one knows the troops as
you're annoyed with him
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:36
			I'll eventually reach troops that you would never expect happen in life circumstance
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:40
			you got
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:54
			to stop here just like we did put the figure for next year's conference
		
00:23:57 --> 00:23:57
			wondering
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:01
			okay, this is no finish this one
		
00:24:04 --> 00:24:10
			so what are these three soldiers will never really the first one is a man by the name of Noreen us.
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:17
			Nor is true is one of the leaders to prominent figures
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:20
			from the opposing army.
		
00:24:22 --> 00:24:35
			Like the opposing army is just sitting there seeing the Muslims fall apart. They're seeing any
minute they're gonna collapse. Like this is the last person in the world who's gonna be having a
change of heart like I'm this close and no reason.
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:45
			He kind of sneaks in, seeks permission walks in on the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
and insisted Listen,
		
00:24:46 --> 00:24:52
			I'd love to use the heart because there are people who are considering it. He says
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:55
			I'm assuming nobody knows.
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:58
			He made it impossible to get
		
00:24:59 --> 00:24:59
			it
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:19
			And so the products are selling thinking about so he's, he is the most compassionate, more loving
than anyone would be. But he's not naive, I suppose you got someone from Unbox and obviously I with
you and now I want you like, so it says to him in the lie, you're just one man
		
00:25:20 --> 00:25:32
			for 100 islands of God right now how awful God, he says so try to get as many of them off of us off
our backs as you can be this war is about trickery.
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:51
			And this is never cheating. This is about deceitful. Because when you're out, but you are allowed to
you both know you're at war with each other to use the element of surprise. You think it's like how
long is that you just keep punching your boxing? Like? You didn't see that? That wasn't fair. And so
he said to remember how good our wars like that strategy.
		
00:25:52 --> 00:26:01
			And so what is the line is this something that no one will have a lot of money in the Muslims. He
goes down to the Jews, it's a solicited
		
00:26:02 --> 00:26:27
			the Mexicans, or Asians or family out that they can Arabs. They're saying Gernot has invested in
this fight with you. And they're saying, we're just going to sit out here lame seach. If we win, we
win. And if we see the hands turning against us, we'll just leave, we'll go back home, no loss,
their families aren't there, the tools are there with their families they live in.
		
00:26:29 --> 00:26:41
			And so they trusted and so they said they said so too. So what should we do? He said they can leave
without casualties. So make sure they give you a few of their men so that they can run.
		
00:26:43 --> 00:26:46
			And then if he goes too far, he goes to the Arabs.
		
00:26:48 --> 00:27:14
			And he says, Look, I know that Jews made an agreement with us, where the Jews just broke their
agreement with Muhammad, what makes you think that they're human with us. And I hadn't used they're
going to break their agreement with us. And they want to make peace with Muhammad Ali sloth was set
up, and the terms of the agreement that they're going to have sued him, the leaders of college so
that he'll forgive him for their treachery, this thing so what should you do?
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:19
			They did, he said, If they asked me for men, don't give it to
		
00:27:20 --> 00:27:21
			you see what he did there?
		
00:27:22 --> 00:27:23
			Though he didn't.
		
00:27:25 --> 00:27:47
			And so lots of high quality system back and forth. Now they do that. And they really know they
wanted, they finally sent a message inside of the DNA to the Jews, South Medina to benefit a lot.
And they say to them, we're marching now we're collecting data. And it was a must plan that they
sent for this instruction on a Saturday on the Sabbath when they don't do that stuff.
		
00:27:50 --> 00:28:02
			And so they said, No, on Saturday, well, that's fine. And even if it wasn't Saturday, we're not
fighting until we know you're as invested as us give us some of your leaders as ransom. So
basically, is that
		
00:28:03 --> 00:28:08
			just saying, Oh my God, and you know, the organist tell us that you're going to take our fingers and
give it to them. So they'll forgive them.
		
00:28:10 --> 00:28:14
			And so now they're really having cold feet. That was the first one.
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:28
			The second one was the winning, Allah says, for setting it up how to do them tomorrow. So we send
upon them the winds, blasting winds, and so troops you couldn't see.
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:53
			And so, weights can picking up picking up picking up the weather was good for battle is an
understatement. Every single 10 of the Mexicans outside of the family, Arabs and police, all of them
was getting overturned, every pot of food is every five years put out. So they say this is not
sustainability projects not going to work. We really should reconsider, we got to go home.
		
00:28:55 --> 00:29:02
			And then the third thing is and we know this from other reports, that after this took place, and the
Muslims are finally relaxing
		
00:29:04 --> 00:29:22
			the prophets of Allah, Allah says the people wait, we have to go check these people that just
betrayed us once and for all. We can't sit here taking punches forever. And you believe the
Archangel Gabriel has told me, Oh, Mohammed, you've taken off your helmet, but I have not taken off
my helmet.
		
00:29:23 --> 00:29:41
			Meaning the angels were there as well. That was the difference. And so the victory came after the
quake after the shake Allah for and set up the means from where you'd never expect, so long as you
continues with us. And so that was when the prophets of Allah or I didn't know send them finally
said to them,
		
00:29:43 --> 00:29:52
			and resume what I assume from now on, we're going to have to be attacking them they will not attack
us anymore.
		
00:29:53 --> 00:29:59
			And so, so I just didn't come full circle and come back to this point out of religion. The prophets
of Allah I said
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:24
			At least in his capacity as the head of states, and he did everything he could to avoid this. And I
saw I was right at 13 years in Mecca, and five years in Medina, just taking you through on the
receiving end. But when there is no other option, our religion just doesn't, doesn't live in a
utopia, it engages reality. And so our religion is a religion of mercy. And that is the default, but
it's also a religion of strength, as we say.
		
00:30:26 --> 00:30:30
			And so Islam tells you excessive mercy, you get run over.
		
00:30:32 --> 00:30:32
			It's just,
		
00:30:33 --> 00:31:00
			it's not proper, not conducive to health, wellbeing, survival. And then you'll be at the other end,
if you have so much mercy, some of the scholars say that you're not going to accept surgery to save
somebody's life. Like if the general policy and the hospitals and a woman comes in, he has a cold,
okay, cut his neck open and see what's happening inside. That's not a good policy, right. But to
dismiss surgery altogether and say,
		
00:31:01 --> 00:31:33
			surgery is very well, very beautiful as a last resort, it will save somebody's life, don't you
agree? And so our religion is illusion, of course. But excessive mercy is very dangerous. And so at
the same time, it's a religion of strength. And it doesn't acknowledge that excessive strikers
oppression, and so forth with that as well. And that is why in the next year, or just right, and it
will continue after, on the conquest of Mecca, the final major strength really with Bryce Chaplin,
and then who they hear
		
00:31:34 --> 00:32:03
			a treaty to place a truce, because they finally saw that he's not going to sit around taking punches
anymore. That is how he was able to make peace, Allen solid was set up by saying no, some things are
worth fighting for. And this will not continue forever, for the greater good, we will put our foot
down. And we cannot get tired of saying this is of course the head of state making these decisions.
But when he went to Mecca, let's focus and I don't have time.
		
00:32:05 --> 00:32:19
			He said, Okay, I'll accept the truce. To preserve the sanctity of the Gabba. And any terms that you
give me, I'll concede to them to prefer preserve the sanctuary of God's house to Abraham's building
to gather, even though
		
00:32:22 --> 00:32:54
			even though I know even though I know that polish has been worn down, has been worn down by the
warfare. I know I have taken a nap I can annihilate them. But that's talking about mainly for
strength in its proper place without question, when ever you had the chance to forgive is almost
laughable. And if ever he was forced to go to war, memorize this, it was for one of three reasons.
Number one, he was defending himself against an attack.
		
00:32:57 --> 00:33:11
			Or number two, he was preventing those that were insisting non stop attackers, even if even
preemptively use a different Thirdly, and this is the proof that Assad is not selfish.
		
00:33:12 --> 00:33:33
			It was to defend those that were being subjugated and attack. So like why did Islam okay fine
records died? Why did Islam go knock on the doors of Roman Persia? These are questions people make
allegations against this is everybody that why? Well we say why did they go down to Cydia? Why did
it make like the Turks?
		
00:33:34 --> 00:34:10
			Because the other citizens were just they were not subjugate other people. And the Turks were
nomadic tribes, people just if you don't, they can't bother you. They go away, they go away, it's
fine. But these were systematic regimes that subjugated humanity suffocating materials, and most of
them does not live for themselves. Imagine the components of your box are solid. Why did they want
to do this? Like if they want to just think back after Brock saw seven died, they wouldn't live like
kings, they wouldn't enjoy pipes or they die. They don't like superheroes. They were the companions
of the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu. I am sending people when they come into Medina being top dollar
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:37
			to see this guy in the prophets with the data's house, right. But they put their lives on the line
and many of them lost their lives, to save civilizations, sometimes that are charging 70% tax and
90% of the population are slaves. And there was gender injustice and social injustice and bigotries
who couldn't imagine they used to so those are the three reasons to defend yourselves against an
attack and to bring out an obvious clear
		
00:34:39 --> 00:34:59
			attack that was going to happen. And number three to defend, not self defend, but defend those that
are defenses as a matter most time he said, Why am I left with that if you do that? He said he
learned when to stop feeling. Why is it that you're only worried about yourselves? Why is it that
you're not fighting in the cause of God and those
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:32
			There are evil prespray now to dive to save them. So this is just the overview of why the prophets
Allah is a supercar to military campaigns. We wanted to try this and why is perfectly consistent
with his mercy mission is almost everybody. I apologize because normally there had to be one below
that that will not protect our making us and make us as those that develop that broken list and fill
us with strength from Allah subhanho wa Taala no money
