Mohammad Elshinawy – Quranic Seerah #04 Doomed a Decade Early

			Continuing with the Quranic Syrah the Quranic discourse or timeline of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam is life.
		

			Sisters, if we can please keep it down, just like a little Phaedra
		

			we said yesterday at the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam received first revelation at 40 years
old, continuing from there for approximately three years from that point.
		

			Revelation continue to come to the Prophet salAllahu alayhi wasallam though not that much. And this
without rewinding goes back the concept of if you just give the Quran enough pause a little bit of
Quran is more than enough to transform you.
		

			Some Quran continues to come down and the Muslims are enjoined to perform the night prayers and
solidify their faith further and further. And then approximately three years later, Allah azza wa
jal revealed to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to warn the tribes in and around Mecca, if
you will, the sub tribes of Quraishi and there are Shiraz carabin.
		

			And so he climbs mount Safa, one of the two hills that we paste between in Hudson Amara, and he
calls out to all of the sub tribes of Quraysh.
		

			And every single one of them hears of this and they come right away because he was not a person to
be ignored. He was a very respectable person in terms of his family, in terms of also his track
record and his ethics, his character, all of that. So everyone came the narrations. I had bucatini
say that even those who could not come sent someone to represent them.
		

			And when they all gathered around them, he said to them, oh my people, if I were to tell you that a
cavalry was behind this mountain and army of horses horsemen, and they were about to raid you they
were about to overrun Mecca. Would you believe me? And they all concurred in one breath they
expressed manager rubner la que que viva we have never experienced a single lie from you. You are I
mean, that's your nickname. We all call you the trustworthy one. Impeccable integrity. We all know
that about you. He said in that case, if you all attest to my honesty, then know that I am a warner
to you before the coming of a grave tournament before the coming of the day of judgment. And so the
		

			first person to rise in in revolt, to protest against this was His own uncle. And you can imagine
how painful that was His own uncle Abu Lahab
		

			and he said to him this is why you gathered us this is why you interrupted our day this is why you
pulled us away from our our business.
		

			And he said to him tab bad luck I said it all yo man you have lost meaning my you have misfortune
for the rest of your day.
		

			And so Allah azza wa jal revealed in the Quran a response in defense of his prophets Allah Allahu
alayhi wa sallam saying Tibet yada ABI la had been whatever. Doomed are the two hands. He wants to
go get back to work. He's suhagra Sullivan once put it he's corporate polish. Time is money for him.
He was you want to get back to work? Doomed are the two hands of Abu Lahab WhatsApp. And he too is
doomed man. And who man who were my guess up all of his fortunes will not benefit him and everything
he has earned sale Siela now on that Allah hub, he will enter to burn in a blazing fire till the end
of the surah.
		

			And so that is when the Dawa went public, if you will, he was receiving Quran he was selecting
selectively choosing people to tell them some people are slowly becoming Muslim. Other people are
just saying ignore him. But now he went public. So the resistance began and Allah Who was the first
to defend his Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam when the backlash transpired, how does this prove
the truth of Islam, the short of this Islam this one snapshot? Well, in two different ways, at
least, the first of them is that they all recognize that is the truthful, he is the trustworthy and
that enough is sufficient to prove his prophethood you know, even the Tamia Rama, Allah he says
		

			something very important to understand. You know, we talked about miracles talk about these complex
issues and he says, Anyone who claims to be a prophet is one of two people. He's the best of the
best. That's why Allah chose them to be a prophet, right? Or they're the
		

			The worst of the worst. They're the most conniving, exploitative, manipulative, ignorant also, they
are making up stuff, eventually they're gonna get exposed all of that. And the true prophet is the
opposite of all of it, right? selfless and well mannered, and accurate. And all of that. He says, so
those who lay claim to prophethood, there's no middle ground, there's no room for confusion. You
just inspect their personality, and you'll automatically know whether they were a prophet or not. So
they all concurred, he was a man that had incorruptible integrity, that alone would prove the truth
of Islam. Clear. The second one is a prophecy that we just heard in the Surah. Abu Lahab, was
		

			declared to be a person of the Hellfire 10 years before his death.
		

			Think about that. I mean, if
		

			he had a brain, he will say, Oh, this is really easy. Muhammad said, become Muslim, so we don't go
to the fire. Ahmed said I'm going to the fire. All I had to do was pretend that I was Muslim, and I
could make the Quran sounds wrong. And then it would be really problematic. But Allah knew that he
would be too arrogant to pretend even that and so he sealed his heart from ever doing something like
this. Due to the arrogance in his heart. Is that clear. It's not about half of rain. Really. It is
not about your IQ. It is about you being deserving of faith. Faith is not an accomplishment. Faith
is a virtue that is given to you when I can add enough sin and to Mina iLab evening Allah.
		

			And so on the one hand, this is sorry to translate no soul can believe without Allah's permission.
It's by invitation only this faith.
		

			And so on one hand, it's a prophecy that foretold that he would never become Muslim 10 years before
his death. So it's another testament to the truth of Islam. And a seamless segue I guess, to the
purity aspect. That's purity. The purity aspect is every single person needs to be a sentinel needs
to be alert on the gates of their heart. What enters in here? Could it sabotage me being deserving
of the gift of faith of the virtue of faith? Allah azza wa jal says Wallah who yeah lemma mafia, no
fool cecum for the rule, Allah knows what dwells inside of your soul. So beware of him, Beware of
him and what he knows about you. Because there could come a time where he turns off even your
		

			awareness about yourself, right? Because of what he knows in you, you know, it's not like Abu Lahab
was doomed never had a chance or only had one chance. Allah could have known that he's had so many
chances as a relative of the Prophet SAW Salem, he could have spoken to him so many times. And then
over the three years, that was the cutoff, that's it, no more chances. So he got severed from access
to his own heart to being able to believe does that make sense?
		

			Allah azza wa jal says
		

			yeah, you have Latina administer G booty Allah he will Rasul the either the icon Lima, you Hiko Oh,
believers, respond to Allah and His Messenger, whenever they invite you to that which gives you
life. That means so many things, right? The life of the hereafter is the true life. You know,
commitment to Allah and his messenger protects us from being massacred on this earth it does. But
the life of your heart also is where it all starts. Every time Allah and His Messenger invite you
		

			to respond, to comply, to submit to adhere, you have to respond quickly, because the chances are not
unlimited. A time can come where you will not be able to respond. May Allah protect us all from that
say I mean,
		

			and that is why that same idea continues to say why Allah and Allah Hi yah hoo Bay in el mar, Eva
Calbee. And know that Allah intervene sometimes between a person and their heart,
		

			between the disbeliever and faith between the disobedient and becoming of the obedient. And
likewise, by the way, the opposite is true. That Allah may come between a believer and sinning and
come between a believer and ever disbelieving again. What's the formula respond to Allah and His
Messenger, to the degree that you are responsive and sensitive, and careful and protective of this
and not allow anything to dwell in there that resists that crowds, your responsiveness to Allah and
His messenger? Are your chances because of that purity? To be invited to piety to be invited to
faith? May Allah make us of its people? And that is why you know in the Quran, when you say, oh,
		

			Allah protect me. I mean, shattering my fallout from all the evil that could arise from what you
create, right? The number one
		

			One thing you should intend is what? The evil that could be inside me. Right? The Prophet Alayhi
Salatu was Salam every morning part of his morning of God he used to say, well, I will be coming
shattered enough see where Shari shaytani was shallaki
		

			Oh Allah I seek protection with you from the evil that dwells inside me. He began with that first.
And from the evil of shaitan and his Shahrukh, you know, the shadows or the booby traps shaitan and
his traps, you know, those traps they put for a bear to put his foot inside shaitan sets those all
the time, but before he asked Allah to protect him from the booby traps of shaitan he asked Allah to
protect him from the evil that could dwell within our own selves. So may Allah purify ourselves for
us, fill it with faith and surety and sincerity and devotion and make us more responsive and more
compliant. Whenever he calls us to that which will give us life Allahumma Amin was Allah Allahu wa
