00:00:09--> 00:00:11

So Al Falak Al Anas we said are

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

called Al Mu'aw with Atayn. The 2 surahs

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

that begin with A'udu

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

which means I seek

00:00:19--> 00:00:21

protection. And they are essentially

00:00:22--> 00:00:24

2 appeals. You're appealing to Allah through these

00:00:24--> 00:00:26

2 Surahs to protect you

00:00:26--> 00:00:28

From different things, we'll get to that in

00:00:28--> 00:00:28

a second.

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

Appealing to God for protection, that is the

00:00:31--> 00:00:32

common theme between the both of them.

00:00:41--> 00:00:43

They are 5 verses 6 verses.

00:00:43--> 00:00:45

Hold that thought as to why that is

00:00:45--> 00:00:46

or think about it.

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

But

00:00:47--> 00:00:50

they are calling us to a certain behavior,

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

which is to remind us that if you

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

believe in Allah

00:00:54--> 00:00:56

you should be behaving a certain way, you

00:00:56--> 00:00:58

should be resorting to Him and trusting Him

00:00:58--> 00:01:01

for your needs. Right? You should be resorting

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

to Him for your vulnerabilities.

00:01:03--> 00:01:05

Belief and behavior cannot be separated. That's an

00:01:05--> 00:01:07

important sort of link between

00:01:08--> 00:01:09

and what we're about to get into of

00:01:09--> 00:01:10

the 2 Muawhidah.

00:01:11--> 00:01:13

Also, some of the scholars said that

00:01:13--> 00:01:15

of the great reminders here between

00:01:15--> 00:01:17

and the next 2 is that when you

00:01:17--> 00:01:18

do what Allah said

00:01:19--> 00:01:19

say

00:01:20--> 00:01:22

he is the one and only you're for

00:01:22--> 00:01:24

sure gonna get opposed.

00:01:24--> 00:01:26

Like you know they say like, Sheikh don't

00:01:26--> 00:01:27

be controversial.

00:01:28--> 00:01:30

Right. We should not unnecessarily ruffle people's feathers.

00:01:30--> 00:01:32

We should be sort of emotionally intelligent and

00:01:32--> 00:01:34

not alien people unnecessarily and all of that.

00:01:34--> 00:01:35

Absolutely. That's prophetic.

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

But at the end of the day

00:01:38--> 00:01:41

La ilaha illallah is the most controversial statement

00:01:42--> 00:01:44

on the face of the earth. It is.

00:01:45--> 00:01:45

Right?

00:01:46--> 00:01:47

No God but it's controversial.

00:01:47--> 00:01:49

So when you say, qulhu allahu ahad, he's

00:01:49--> 00:01:50

the one and only,

00:01:51--> 00:01:54

automatically you're gonna have opposition and so automatically

00:01:54--> 00:01:56

you're gonna need to armor up. Right? When

00:01:56--> 00:01:59

you declare Kulhu Allahu ahad, you're gonna have

00:01:59--> 00:02:00

to do constant

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

because this declaration

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

you will face

00:02:04--> 00:02:06

as a result of it so much opposition.

00:02:06--> 00:02:08

Is this clear? The connection between the first

00:02:08--> 00:02:10

and the next two? Alright.

00:02:11--> 00:02:12

So let's get into,

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

Al Mu'aw with attain.

00:02:15--> 00:02:17

They both begin with kul,

00:02:17--> 00:02:21

repetition, repetition, repetition. The Prophet alaihi salatu wasalam

00:02:21--> 00:02:24

repeated these surahs almost, I will not recount,

00:02:24--> 00:02:24

almost

00:02:25--> 00:02:27

as much as he repeated Okay?

00:02:28--> 00:02:29

Almost.

00:02:31--> 00:02:33

After every salah we said and we said

00:02:33--> 00:02:35

before the sunrise and before the sun sets

00:02:35--> 00:02:37

and with it also he would wipe down

00:02:37--> 00:02:40

his body for protection Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:02:42--> 00:02:42

Say,

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

I seek protection. You know the difference between,

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

Istijara and Isti'adah.

00:02:50--> 00:02:53

Or comes from the word which means neighbor.

00:02:53--> 00:02:54

It means to come close to something

00:02:55--> 00:02:57

for protection like you go stand by a

00:02:57--> 00:02:57

wall,

00:02:58--> 00:02:59

right? For protection.

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

But

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

is when you cling to it.

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

Okay?

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

You know

00:03:06--> 00:03:07

like when when a child is first going

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

off to school and like they sort of

00:03:10--> 00:03:12

they throw a a tantrum because they're too

00:03:12--> 00:03:13

attached to their parents and they grab their

00:03:13--> 00:03:15

thigh and and they panic and all. This

00:03:15--> 00:03:16

is called

00:03:16--> 00:03:17

this is called

00:03:17--> 00:03:20

this. He's seeking refuge by attaching himself

00:03:20--> 00:03:21

to,

00:03:22--> 00:03:23

his his parents.

00:03:24--> 00:03:27

And so you are attaching yourself with this

00:03:27--> 00:03:30

plea to Allah aza wa Jal you're clinging

00:03:30--> 00:03:32

to him you're attaching yourself to him for

00:03:32--> 00:03:33

protection.

00:03:35--> 00:03:37

Say I seek this protection,

00:03:37--> 00:03:39

I rush to Allah, I cling to Allah

00:03:39--> 00:03:40

for protection

00:03:41--> 00:03:42

but it doesn't say

00:03:42--> 00:03:45

say I seek this refuge with Allah. Kula'udu

00:03:45--> 00:03:47

bi rabbil falaq

00:03:47--> 00:03:50

Say, I seek this protection with Rab, the

00:03:50--> 00:03:52

Lord, the Master of al falaq.

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

Falakah

00:03:54--> 00:03:56

means to split something in half. Okay?

00:03:57--> 00:03:59

Falakah means to split something in half.

00:04:00--> 00:04:02

Usually in the translations of the Quran you'll

00:04:02--> 00:04:04

find I seek refuge in what? The Lord

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

of

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

Daybreak.

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

Daybreak.

00:04:08--> 00:04:11

Right? That is the most common example of

00:04:11--> 00:04:11

the Falak

00:04:12--> 00:04:14

and it is Quranic as well. Allah azza

00:04:14--> 00:04:15

wa jal says,

00:04:17--> 00:04:19

he is one of his descriptions in another

00:04:19--> 00:04:20

surah al anam.

00:04:21--> 00:04:23

In al anam, he is faliq the one

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

who breaks open the day meaning the night

00:04:25--> 00:04:27

is there you have the break of dawn

00:04:27--> 00:04:28

even English we call the break of dawn

00:04:28--> 00:04:30

and the day begins to emerge out of

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

it, right? So that is why it's usually

00:04:33--> 00:04:34

translated as daybreak.

00:04:34--> 00:04:35

But also,

00:04:36--> 00:04:37

it's not just that.

00:04:39--> 00:04:40

Allah Azza wa Jal said elsewhere in the

00:04:40--> 00:04:42

Quran, Inna Allah Hafaliqul

00:04:42--> 00:04:44

Habiwan Nawwah. Allah

00:04:44--> 00:04:48

splits open the hab, the grains for plants

00:04:48--> 00:04:50

to come out, to emerge once again,

00:04:50--> 00:04:52

and a Nawa and the date pit, which

00:04:52--> 00:04:54

is even harder. It's still he still splits

00:04:54--> 00:04:56

it open, and he brings out the date

00:04:56--> 00:04:58

palm tree from it.

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

And so you are seeking refuge in the

00:05:02--> 00:05:04

Lord that breaks open

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

the darkness of the night and brings about

00:05:06--> 00:05:09

the day. And breaks open the dead dry

00:05:09--> 00:05:11

seed and brings out of it a living

00:05:11--> 00:05:12

plant.

00:05:12--> 00:05:14

Right? He is the source of life and

00:05:14--> 00:05:16

he is the source of light. Notice those

00:05:16--> 00:05:18

common themes keep reemerging in the Quran.

00:05:20--> 00:05:21

So you're seeking

00:05:22--> 00:05:24

refuge, clinging to Allah the Lord

00:05:25--> 00:05:27

of breakage. Sounds wrong in English, but breakage

00:05:27--> 00:05:29

in a good a good connotation. Whether breaking

00:05:29--> 00:05:31

the day open or breaking the seeds open.

00:05:32--> 00:05:34

Right? These are all positive connotation. These are

00:05:34--> 00:05:36

to infuse you with confidence in Him. Subhanahu

00:05:36--> 00:05:38

Wa Ta'ala. From what now? Seeking protection from

00:05:38--> 00:05:39

what?

00:05:41--> 00:05:44

From the evil of what he created,

00:05:45--> 00:05:46

and that is the correct way to translate

00:05:46--> 00:05:47

it.

00:05:48--> 00:05:50

A little bit controversial but like just

00:05:51--> 00:05:52

let's make believe it's not.

00:05:54--> 00:05:57

Because this is like a a philosophical question,

00:05:57--> 00:05:59

even a theological question. Does Allah create evil

00:05:59--> 00:06:01

or not? Right? Because if Allah is the

00:06:01--> 00:06:04

creator of everything, he creates good and evil.

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

And

00:06:05--> 00:06:07

the correct answer is what?

00:06:08--> 00:06:10

Who created evil guys?

00:06:13--> 00:06:14

Some will say us, some will say shaitan,

00:06:14--> 00:06:16

some will say Allah. I don't mean scholars.

00:06:18--> 00:06:20

But the problem if you say anything but

00:06:20--> 00:06:22

Allah, you've just

00:06:22--> 00:06:24

affirmed multiple creators

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

which we can do.

00:06:27--> 00:06:28

But then if you say Allah is the

00:06:28--> 00:06:30

creator of evil, it sounds disrespectful and that's

00:06:30--> 00:06:32

why so many of you hesitate to do

00:06:32--> 00:06:34

it. And that's a good thing that where

00:06:34--> 00:06:35

it's it's coming from the right place, that

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

hesitation.

00:06:36--> 00:06:39

The reluctancy is coming from a good place.

00:06:39--> 00:06:40

The correct answer

00:06:41--> 00:06:43

is that the question is wrong.

00:06:44--> 00:06:45

There is no such thing

00:06:46--> 00:06:49

as evil, meaning as pure evil.

00:06:49--> 00:06:50

Evil is relative.

00:06:51--> 00:06:53

Because what is evil? Evil is like something

00:06:53--> 00:06:54

just like harmful. Right?

00:06:56--> 00:06:57

Allah is the most wise.

00:06:57--> 00:07:00

Would He create something that has no benefit?

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

Just harms? No. And so evil as we

00:07:03--> 00:07:05

perceive it, what we perceive to be evil,

00:07:05--> 00:07:06

suffering is evil,

00:07:06--> 00:07:09

right? At face value, right? Disease is evil,

00:07:09--> 00:07:10

oppression is evil,

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

right?

00:07:12--> 00:07:14

But it is also a source of great

00:07:14--> 00:07:16

good in the grander scheme of things.

00:07:17--> 00:07:19

So when we're speaking about Allah who created

00:07:19--> 00:07:20

it,

00:07:20--> 00:07:23

you should be speaking about it while recognizing

00:07:23--> 00:07:25

that there is good that comes out of

00:07:25--> 00:07:25

it.

00:07:25--> 00:07:27

And that is why I said translated as

00:07:27--> 00:07:28

from the evil of,

00:07:29--> 00:07:32

its relative not evil of what he created.

00:07:32--> 00:07:34

And the prophet salallahu alayhi wasalam when he

00:07:34--> 00:07:37

enters salah, the dua of Istiftah before al

00:07:37--> 00:07:39

Fatiha he would say what wal khairukullu

00:07:39--> 00:07:42

fee adayik and I concur O Allah or

00:07:42--> 00:07:45

I admit that all good rest in your

00:07:45--> 00:07:48

hands was sharru laysa ilaikh. And evil is

00:07:48--> 00:07:50

not to be attributed to you

00:07:50--> 00:07:52

because when it's when we're speaking from the

00:07:52--> 00:07:53

reference point of Allah,

00:07:54--> 00:07:56

the creator, he didn't create it as evil,

00:07:56--> 00:07:59

as just evil. Even if evil may be

00:07:59--> 00:08:01

a dimension of it, a manifestation or an

00:08:01--> 00:08:02

angle of it.

00:08:02--> 00:08:04

And there's so much of this even the

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

believing jinn, the jinn that were Muslim. In

00:08:07--> 00:08:09

Surat Al Jinn they said,

00:08:16--> 00:08:18

We don't know like why is the stars

00:08:18--> 00:08:21

and everything's changing, the constellations and we don't

00:08:21--> 00:08:24

understand what's happening. But they said what? Has

00:08:24--> 00:08:26

evil been intended? They didn't say who intended

00:08:26--> 00:08:28

it because it would be more respectful to

00:08:28--> 00:08:30

leave it in the passive voice. Has evil

00:08:30--> 00:08:33

been intended for those on earth? Like, is

00:08:33--> 00:08:34

the world about to end?

00:08:34--> 00:08:37

Or did their Lord intend good for them?

00:08:37--> 00:08:39

So, when it came to good, they attributed

00:08:39--> 00:08:41

it to Allah and they were right. The

00:08:41--> 00:08:43

stars were being reset

00:08:43--> 00:08:45

to protect the skies for the revelation of

00:08:45--> 00:08:48

the Quran. Muhammad salallahu alaihi wasallam was being

00:08:48--> 00:08:50

sent with the Quran. It was the start

00:08:50--> 00:08:51

of something

00:08:51--> 00:08:53

good. But, when before they knew they said

00:08:53--> 00:08:55

we don't know is evil about to happen?

00:08:55--> 00:08:57

Was it intended? They didn't say that God

00:08:57--> 00:09:00

intend evil. Right? Was evil intended

00:09:01--> 00:09:02

for those on earth

00:09:02--> 00:09:05

or did their Lord intend good for them?

00:09:05--> 00:09:07

There's many examples of this by the way

00:09:07--> 00:09:09

of this edeb, this required etiquette

00:09:09--> 00:09:10

in the Quran.

00:09:11--> 00:09:13

The last of them is Ibrahim alaihis salam

00:09:13--> 00:09:15

in the famous dua when he is speaking

00:09:15--> 00:09:17

about Allah azza wa Jal, he says, walallavi

00:09:17--> 00:09:19

khalaqani fahu ayehdeen, He is the one who

00:09:19--> 00:09:21

created me, He is the one who created

00:09:21--> 00:09:23

me and He is the one that guides

00:09:23--> 00:09:23

me.

00:09:29--> 00:09:31

And He is the one that feeds me,

00:09:31--> 00:09:33

and He is the one that

00:09:34--> 00:09:36

gives me drink. Then He says what?

00:09:39--> 00:09:40

And when I become sick. He didn't say

00:09:40--> 00:09:41

when he makes me sick.

00:09:42--> 00:09:45

He said and when I become sick, fahuwa

00:09:45--> 00:09:47

yashfin then he is the one that heals

00:09:47--> 00:09:49

me. You see the beauty there, the nuance?

00:09:50--> 00:09:50

It is because

00:09:51--> 00:09:54

we do not attribute evil to Allah azza

00:09:54--> 00:09:55

wa Jal, that is a pattern in the

00:09:55--> 00:09:56

Quran.

00:09:57--> 00:09:58

There are small exceptions to it for a

00:09:58--> 00:10:00

reason we could talk about in the theology

00:10:00--> 00:10:02

class. Just so that no one sort of

00:10:02--> 00:10:04

gets a lapse that Allah creates all. It's

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

there.

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

But in general by and large it's always

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

accustoming us to this min sharri ma khalaq

00:10:10--> 00:10:12

I seek refuge in Allah from the evil

00:10:12--> 00:10:15

of that could emerge, that could impact us

00:10:15--> 00:10:17

from what He created. Min sharri Ma Khalaq,

00:10:17--> 00:10:19

from the evil of what He created.

00:10:21--> 00:10:21

Is this

00:10:22--> 00:10:23

clear? We're good? Okay.

00:10:25--> 00:10:28

Then the rest of the surah speaks about

00:10:28--> 00:10:29

3 different

00:10:30--> 00:10:32

subsets of that evil, 3 different kinds of

00:10:32--> 00:10:33

that evil.

00:10:33--> 00:10:37

Minshari from the evil of ghasikin idhaawakab,

00:10:39--> 00:10:41

from the evil of the night,

00:10:41--> 00:10:43

from the evil of the night when it

00:10:43--> 00:10:44

approaches.

00:10:46--> 00:10:48

Some translated as the moon, the moon is

00:10:48--> 00:10:49

a symbol of the night. So we're all

00:10:49--> 00:10:51

talking about the same thing here. Right? From

00:10:52--> 00:10:53

the evil of the ghasic

00:10:53--> 00:10:53

darkness

00:10:54--> 00:10:57

of the night, idha wakab once it arrives

00:10:57--> 00:10:59

and that's should be self explanatory.

00:10:59--> 00:11:01

More evil happens at night under the cover

00:11:01--> 00:11:03

of night and otherwise

00:11:03--> 00:11:05

more people commit mistakes at night. Not just

00:11:05--> 00:11:07

crimes and assault, but also

00:11:10--> 00:11:12

secret sins. Right? They happen at night.

00:11:12--> 00:11:14

It was the the custom of one of

00:11:14--> 00:11:16

the salaf, one of the early Muslims to

00:11:16--> 00:11:17

have a particular wird of Alhamdulillah,

00:11:18--> 00:11:20

like a routine regiment, a daily devotional, saying

00:11:20--> 00:11:22

alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, thank you God, thank you God,

00:11:22--> 00:11:23

thank you God. Before

00:11:24--> 00:11:25

he slept and when they asked him like

00:11:25--> 00:11:26

why?

00:11:26--> 00:11:28

Like it's not necessarily the sunnah to word

00:11:28--> 00:11:29

it this way.

00:11:30--> 00:11:32

Why did you choose this? Right? To add

00:11:32--> 00:11:34

on top of the sunnah or on top

00:11:34--> 00:11:35

of sort of the the regular stuff we

00:11:35--> 00:11:38

all know. He said because this hour

00:11:39--> 00:11:41

is the hour when people lose their din.

00:11:42--> 00:11:42

Right?

00:11:42--> 00:11:44

The fact that I sort of I'm only

00:11:44--> 00:11:46

with my wife right now. I'm sort of

00:11:46--> 00:11:48

only in my house right now. That it's

00:11:48--> 00:11:48

a

00:11:49--> 00:11:51

blessing. Right? Because so much happens in the

00:11:51--> 00:11:52

time of the night.

00:11:55--> 00:11:56

So min sharri ghastikhanidawaka

00:11:56--> 00:11:58

from the evil of the night as it,

00:11:59--> 00:11:59

when it arrives.

00:12:00--> 00:12:04

Wamin sharri nafathati fil uqad and from the

00:12:04--> 00:12:07

evil of those who blow into the knots.

00:12:07--> 00:12:09

This is something very well known

00:12:09--> 00:12:10

that

00:12:10--> 00:12:12

sorcery and witchcraft involves

00:12:12--> 00:12:15

this behavior you make knots you blow certain

00:12:15--> 00:12:18

spells or incantations into these knots so the

00:12:18--> 00:12:20

evil of those working on those projects

00:12:22--> 00:12:23

the black magic, Jazakalokhayra.

00:12:25--> 00:12:27

From the evil of those blowing into the

00:12:27--> 00:12:27

knots

00:12:30--> 00:12:32

and from the evil of the envier when

00:12:32--> 00:12:33

he envies.

00:12:34--> 00:12:36

The evil of the envier

00:12:36--> 00:12:37

when he envies.

00:12:40--> 00:12:41

You guys know what the envier is?

00:12:42--> 00:12:45

The hater. I hate that someone is blessed.

00:12:45--> 00:12:47

I hate his blessing. That's really what envy

00:12:47--> 00:12:49

is. Otherwise, it could be like jealous admiration.

00:12:49--> 00:12:50

I wish I were better. I wish I

00:12:50--> 00:12:52

were like this person or that person. That

00:12:52--> 00:12:53

would be a good thing. But to hate

00:12:53--> 00:12:55

that someone be blessed, this is,

00:12:56--> 00:12:56

envy.

00:12:59--> 00:13:00

What do these have in common?

00:13:03--> 00:13:04

The night,

00:13:05--> 00:13:06

the sorcerers,

00:13:08--> 00:13:09

and

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

the envir.

00:13:16--> 00:13:18

Sisters, what do these 3 have in common?

00:13:23--> 00:13:25

You guys thought I wasn't gonna ask questions?

00:13:27--> 00:13:29

The people online are a bonus. You guys

00:13:29--> 00:13:30

are my priority.

00:13:31--> 00:13:32

I wanna make sure you're with me.

00:13:35--> 00:13:37

Unseen. These are all hidden dangers.

00:13:38--> 00:13:40

Right? The night by default is hidden.

00:13:41--> 00:13:43

People don't really do witchcraft

00:13:44--> 00:13:46

in the daytime or out in the open.

00:13:46--> 00:13:48

Also, the connection between sort

00:13:48--> 00:13:51

of the spell or this dark art and

00:13:51--> 00:13:54

between its impact is very hard. It needs

00:13:54--> 00:13:56

to be investigated, very hard to link. Right?

00:13:56--> 00:13:59

And the envious, SubhanAllah, it says the envious

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

when he envies

00:14:00--> 00:14:01

because

00:14:02--> 00:14:04

it's the act itself. Like, you may know

00:14:04--> 00:14:06

that someone is sort of like jealous of

00:14:06--> 00:14:08

you but maybe someone isn't. Maybe they're your

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

loved one.

00:14:09--> 00:14:11

Yaqub alayhi salam said to his sons, said

00:14:11--> 00:14:13

to Yusuf, don't tell your brothers. Sometimes it

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

could be your loved one that's sort of

00:14:14--> 00:14:16

like in a moment of

00:14:16--> 00:14:18

moral weakness. They

00:14:18--> 00:14:20

they they hit you. When they hit you,

00:14:20--> 00:14:21

how do you see it?

00:14:22--> 00:14:23

Like it's like a light beam. It's like

00:14:23--> 00:14:25

the red thing comes out of their eyes

00:14:25--> 00:14:26

when they hit you with the evil eye

00:14:26--> 00:14:27

and you can duck? No. There is no

00:14:27--> 00:14:30

ducking, there is no red beam. It is

00:14:30--> 00:14:32

completely invisible. It is ghaybiyaat,

00:14:32--> 00:14:33

right?

00:14:34--> 00:14:37

And so this is the theme of Surat

00:14:37--> 00:14:39

Al Falak that in the dark

00:14:39--> 00:14:41

or even if it's not in the sort

00:14:41--> 00:14:42

of physical dark,

00:14:42--> 00:14:43

the

00:14:43--> 00:14:46

the the light, the the photons, and no.

00:14:46--> 00:14:48

You're in the dark. You're sort of walking

00:14:48--> 00:14:50

blind. You have no idea

00:14:50--> 00:14:51

where the dangers

00:14:52--> 00:14:54

are but you're seeking refuge with who?

00:14:55--> 00:14:57

The one who brings out the light.

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

Alright?

00:15:02--> 00:15:03

Any questions on this Surah?

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

Okay.

00:15:12--> 00:15:14

You know, also it is not intentional evil.

00:15:14--> 00:15:15

I forgot to say that. You know the

00:15:15--> 00:15:17

Prophet alaihi wasallahu alaihi wasallam he would at

00:15:17--> 00:15:18

night

00:15:20--> 00:15:22

go to his 2 grandsons,

00:15:22--> 00:15:24

Al Hassan and Al Hussein

00:15:24--> 00:15:27

RadiAllahu Anhu Wa Alaihi Wasallam and he used

00:15:27--> 00:15:29

to put his hand on them and say,

00:15:29--> 00:15:30

U'rihdukuma,

00:15:31--> 00:15:33

I seek refuge in Allah again

00:15:34--> 00:15:36

in Allah for you for you

00:15:36--> 00:15:37

or using

00:15:39--> 00:15:41

Allah's perfect words

00:15:43--> 00:15:44

from every devil

00:15:45--> 00:15:48

that's intentional and also every poisonous creature,

00:15:48--> 00:15:49

right?

00:15:50--> 00:15:52

You get bit somewhere or sort of infection

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

comes in or a virus goes up your

00:15:53--> 00:15:54

nose. Right?

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

These are unintended a lot of times. Right?

00:16:01--> 00:16:02

And from every critical

00:16:02--> 00:16:04

eye, the eye that looks at you with,

00:16:04--> 00:16:05

with contempt.

00:16:07--> 00:16:09

And so since you can't

00:16:09--> 00:16:12

identify, you cannot protect. So your only

00:16:12--> 00:16:15

hope, your only survival is what?

00:16:18--> 00:16:20

The next surah is Surat An Nas. Surat

00:16:21--> 00:16:22

An

00:16:22--> 00:16:24

Nas. And Surat An Nas

00:16:27--> 00:16:29

say I seek refuge, I claim to Allah

00:16:29--> 00:16:31

seeking protection. Bi rabb bin Nas by the

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

Lord of humanity.

00:16:34--> 00:16:35

Of course, he's the lord of humanity and

00:16:35--> 00:16:37

everything else, right? Including the person saying it,

00:16:37--> 00:16:40

right? It's not the other. It's everything including

00:16:40--> 00:16:41

myself

00:16:41--> 00:16:43

but you're identifying him as the lord of

00:16:43--> 00:16:44

humanity, right?

00:16:45--> 00:16:47

Then you say, Malekin Nas, the king of

00:16:47--> 00:16:48

humanity.

00:16:48--> 00:16:52

Meaning he has absolute authority, absolute dominion, absolute

00:16:52--> 00:16:55

sovereignty, absolute control, Malekinas.

00:16:59--> 00:17:01

And then He is also the God.

00:17:02--> 00:17:04

You know, comes from the word walaha.

00:17:04--> 00:17:06

Is like attachment of the heart. I mean

00:17:06--> 00:17:08

humanity already attaches to God.

00:17:08--> 00:17:11

Muslims only attach themselves to God. That's the

00:17:11--> 00:17:13

difference. Right? But every human being, they say

00:17:13--> 00:17:15

there's no atheist in a foxhole. Right? You

00:17:15--> 00:17:17

know the foxholes? Like the bomb shelters or

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

ditches when like in war. Right? Everyone sort

00:17:19--> 00:17:21

of goes back to a samad. They resort

00:17:21--> 00:17:24

back to him. They they all recognize him

00:17:24--> 00:17:26

deep down inside but then they associate with

00:17:26--> 00:17:29

him. So you're recognizing that you are the

00:17:29--> 00:17:30

true

00:17:30--> 00:17:31

lord of humanity.

00:17:32--> 00:17:33

You are the king. Because you know not

00:17:33--> 00:17:35

every owner can control their property.

00:17:36--> 00:17:38

Like a landlord whose tenants aren't paying rent

00:17:38--> 00:17:39

or something. Right?

00:17:40--> 00:17:42

Not every owner has sort of sovereignty.

00:17:42--> 00:17:43

You are the lord

00:17:44--> 00:17:45

and you are the

00:17:46--> 00:17:47

the king that's control

00:17:48--> 00:17:50

and you are ilah, you are sort of

00:17:50--> 00:17:53

the one that their hearts have no choice

00:17:53--> 00:17:56

but to turn to. Right? Malikinas ilahinas.

00:17:58--> 00:18:01

That's what you're seeking refuge with or through

00:18:01--> 00:18:02

of what

00:18:05--> 00:18:08

from the evil of the waswas. Waswas means

00:18:08--> 00:18:08

what?

00:18:09--> 00:18:10

The whisperer. One of the names of Shaitan,

00:18:10--> 00:18:11

he's the whisperer.

00:18:12--> 00:18:14

And there's a big difference between someone who

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

whispers

00:18:14--> 00:18:16

and between a whisperer.

00:18:16--> 00:18:17

What's the difference?

00:18:20--> 00:18:22

So he's always doing. Like if I won

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

400

00:18:23--> 00:18:23

wrestling matches,

00:18:24--> 00:18:25

right?

00:18:25--> 00:18:27

And I lost 1.

00:18:27--> 00:18:29

What do you call me? A winner or

00:18:29--> 00:18:29

a loser?

00:18:31--> 00:18:32

I know you're a perfectionist. You're gonna call

00:18:32--> 00:18:34

me a loser anyway. Right? I'm a winner

00:18:34--> 00:18:36

because I only lost 1. Right? I'm not

00:18:36--> 00:18:37

always losing. If I'm always losing, I'm a

00:18:37--> 00:18:38

loser.

00:18:38--> 00:18:41

But if I'm regularly winning, constantly winning, right,

00:18:41--> 00:18:44

then I'm I'm a winner. I'm identified by

00:18:44--> 00:18:47

my what I'm easily recognized by. Yes? And

00:18:47--> 00:18:48

so shaitan is constantly whispering,

00:18:49--> 00:18:51

endlessly whispering. He's the whisperer,

00:18:52--> 00:18:54

al waswas. The other name of Shaitan is

00:18:54--> 00:18:55

what? Al khanas.

00:18:56--> 00:18:57

Al khanas,

00:18:57--> 00:18:58

khanasa

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

means to basically retreat, to run away, to

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

flee.

00:19:03--> 00:19:05

And we know this from the hadith and

00:19:05--> 00:19:06

the ayat about Shaitan. You make a then

00:19:06--> 00:19:08

he runs away then sort of he comes

00:19:08--> 00:19:09

back. Then you make a comma he runs

00:19:09--> 00:19:11

away then he comes back and whispers you

00:19:11--> 00:19:14

in your salah. Then you say, the salah

00:19:14--> 00:19:16

specialist shaytan. I'm serious, it's not a joke.

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

The salah specialist shaitaan, like he gets he

00:19:19--> 00:19:21

has to leave. He's relentless. So he's constantly

00:19:21--> 00:19:24

in this attack mode of whispering, retreat mode

00:19:24--> 00:19:25

because he cannot

00:19:27--> 00:19:29

coexist with the remembrance of Allah Subhanahu Wa

00:19:29--> 00:19:32

Ta'ala. So he's Al Waswas the whisper, Al

00:19:32--> 00:19:33

Khanas the retreater.

00:19:37--> 00:19:39

This is also why the Quran says what?

00:19:39--> 00:19:39

Wamaniashu

00:19:40--> 00:19:42

anzikri rrahmani no qayid lahu shaitaanah.

00:19:43--> 00:19:45

Whomever turns a blind eye to the remembrance

00:19:45--> 00:19:47

of God, we appoint for him a devil.

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

Why? Because he invited him,

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

he invited

00:19:50--> 00:19:51

him. Insha'Allah suasukhanas

00:19:56--> 00:19:58

the one who whispers in the chest of

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

people.

00:20:02--> 00:20:04

And like there's so much to say here

00:20:04--> 00:20:05

but

00:20:05--> 00:20:06

number

00:20:06--> 00:20:07

1,

00:20:07--> 00:20:09

he didn't say the hearts of people

00:20:09--> 00:20:11

because shaitan literally

00:20:12--> 00:20:13

roams

00:20:13--> 00:20:15

the outskirts of your heart waiting for an

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

opening to get in.

00:20:17--> 00:20:17

Right?

00:20:18--> 00:20:20

Waiting for someone to let him inside.

00:20:21--> 00:20:22

You know, this is why,

00:20:26--> 00:20:28

Sheikh Ataymin Rahimullah, when he's explaining this surah,

00:20:28--> 00:20:31

he mentioned something beautiful. He said, when you

00:20:31--> 00:20:33

say, oh Allah protect me, min sharri ma

00:20:33--> 00:20:36

khalaq all the evils out there. He said,

00:20:36--> 00:20:38

but remember that you have like a traitor

00:20:38--> 00:20:40

inside you, your nafs. Like

00:20:41--> 00:20:43

he he shouldn't be trusted too much.

00:20:43--> 00:20:45

He's the guy that like he's he's the

00:20:45--> 00:20:46

scout. Scout. He's gonna go out to shaitan

00:20:46--> 00:20:48

and shaitan is gonna bribe me like come

00:20:48--> 00:20:49

on let me in man just like I'm

00:20:49--> 00:20:50

not gonna cause a mess just like

00:20:51--> 00:20:52

and he's gonna bribe him and then he's

00:20:52--> 00:20:54

gonna get weak. Right? He says, so you

00:20:54--> 00:20:57

seek refuge in Allah from the evils but

00:20:57--> 00:20:58

begin with the evil that could be within

00:20:58--> 00:21:01

you. Right? The evil, the weakness, the sort

00:21:01--> 00:21:02

of the temptation, the doubt, the confusion of

00:21:02--> 00:21:03

your soul. And that is a

00:21:07--> 00:21:08

sallallahu alaihi wa sallam would say every single

00:21:08--> 00:21:10

Friday. It was not he never said it's

00:21:10--> 00:21:12

in passing. He would say every single Friday,

00:21:16--> 00:21:18

Oh Allah protect us from the evils within

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

ourselves. The evil suggestions sort of the evil

00:21:21--> 00:21:23

access points, right? The security breaches,

00:21:24--> 00:21:24

right?

00:21:24--> 00:21:26

So Shaitan is now in the sudur.

00:21:26--> 00:21:29

He whispers in the in the outskirts come

00:21:29--> 00:21:31

on out someone talk to me please guys

00:21:31--> 00:21:33

I got a really good offer he's there,

00:21:33--> 00:21:35

right? And this is subhanAllah you find this

00:21:35--> 00:21:37

another ayah as well. It says

00:21:45--> 00:21:46

the people of piety

00:21:46--> 00:21:48

when a ta'if, you know tawaf going around

00:21:48--> 00:21:51

the Kaaba? When a ta'if means shaitan is

00:21:51--> 00:21:53

just like as he's circling he sort of

00:21:53--> 00:21:54

throws a jab at you like just you

00:21:54--> 00:21:57

know gets a he sneaks a punch in.

00:21:57--> 00:21:58

Ta'if. Right?

00:21:58--> 00:22:00

They come to their center. They remember Allah.

00:22:00--> 00:22:01

They remember paradise. They remember the fire. And

00:22:01--> 00:22:02

so, they just

00:22:02--> 00:22:06

they compensate quickly. They clean up quickly,

00:22:06--> 00:22:09

any sort of reaches. So Allah is saying

00:22:09--> 00:22:12

here, min sharil waswasal khanas, the from the

00:22:12--> 00:22:15

evil of the waswas, the whisperer retreater that

00:22:15--> 00:22:16

is there roaming within the chest of the

00:22:16--> 00:22:19

human being. He's seeking his heart.

00:22:19--> 00:22:21

He's seeking to get in. He's looking for

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

a fatal blow.

00:22:27--> 00:22:29

From among humanity

00:22:29--> 00:22:30

and jinnkind.

00:22:35--> 00:22:37

So they're not all just jinn. There's humans

00:22:37--> 00:22:38

that bring you away from Allah Azza wa

00:22:38--> 00:22:40

Jal. Essentially or not by the way, but

00:22:40--> 00:22:41

they do the work of Shaytan.

00:22:42--> 00:22:45

But what's so optimistic about this

00:22:45--> 00:22:46

is that isti'ada

00:22:47--> 00:22:49

now, beginning of the surah, qula'udu birabbin Nas,

00:22:49--> 00:22:51

is enough for both of them.

00:22:53--> 00:22:55

Right? That if you have Allah azza wa

00:22:55--> 00:22:56

Jal,

00:22:57--> 00:23:00

you will be protected from the shayateen and

00:23:00--> 00:23:00

their whispers,

00:23:01--> 00:23:03

and their sabotaging whether they're humans or jinn.

00:23:03--> 00:23:05

If the world were to conspire,

00:23:05--> 00:23:07

right, with all of their assets and all

00:23:07--> 00:23:09

of their media, you're still not going to

00:23:09--> 00:23:11

waiver if you have Allah.

00:23:11--> 00:23:12

But the trick

00:23:13--> 00:23:14

to seeking Allah with earnest

00:23:15--> 00:23:17

is to realize Surat Al Nas like what

00:23:17--> 00:23:19

Surat Al Nas is all about.

00:23:21--> 00:23:24

These external hidden dangers was 5 verses, right?

00:23:27--> 00:23:28

6 verses

00:23:28--> 00:23:30

is just about your heart.

00:23:31--> 00:23:33

And the scholar said this reminds you that

00:23:35--> 00:23:37

you can't even protect, like,

00:23:37--> 00:23:41

within. Forget protect yourself from external assaults. You

00:23:41--> 00:23:42

can't even protect this chest of yours.

00:23:43--> 00:23:45

This chest of yours that has a Quran

00:23:45--> 00:23:46

inside it

00:23:47--> 00:23:48

could drop the Quran.

00:23:48--> 00:23:50

Right? And then when Allah azza wa Jal

00:23:50--> 00:23:53

say about the Quran, balhuaba aayatun bayyanatun

00:23:54--> 00:23:55

these are clear verses fisudur

00:23:56--> 00:23:58

in the chests of those He granted knowledge

00:23:58--> 00:23:59

to.

00:23:59--> 00:24:01

The best knowledge Allah can grant His knowledge

00:24:01--> 00:24:03

of the Quran and it's in here. It's

00:24:03--> 00:24:06

in your heart, right? That rests within your

00:24:06--> 00:24:07

chest. Shaitan

00:24:08--> 00:24:10

is very close circling.

00:24:10--> 00:24:12

He knows that so long as you have

00:24:12--> 00:24:13

that Quran he can't touch you. So, he

00:24:13--> 00:24:15

is trying to get the Quran out and

00:24:15--> 00:24:17

it can get out. It can get out.

00:24:17--> 00:24:19

And this is what creates the sense of

00:24:19--> 00:24:21

earnest to say I need this surah, I

00:24:21--> 00:24:23

need khul a'udhu ba rabin nas.

00:24:23--> 00:24:25

Does that make sense? The tying in I

00:24:25--> 00:24:27

don't, I can't even protect this little thing

00:24:27--> 00:24:29

inside me. Even that I can't do.

00:24:31--> 00:24:33

And of what the scholars mentioned here is

00:24:33--> 00:24:35

that why did the Quran

00:24:36--> 00:24:39

say This was also a wonderful inference some

00:24:39--> 00:24:41

of the scholars made. When before you begin

00:24:41--> 00:24:43

reciting Quran say,

00:24:44--> 00:24:46

Shaitan is gonna try to get in the

00:24:46--> 00:24:48

way, right? But then, why does it end?

00:24:48--> 00:24:50

This is not begin Quran. Why does the

00:24:50--> 00:24:52

last surah of the Quran end with

00:24:52--> 00:24:54

isti'ala from Shaitan? I'm done reading.

00:24:55--> 00:24:57

They said the point here is what? The

00:24:57--> 00:24:58

inference to take is what?

00:24:59--> 00:25:00

No, you're not.

00:25:01--> 00:25:03

This is why some of the scholars would

00:25:03--> 00:25:05

not like when you do a katsma to

00:25:05--> 00:25:07

stop at min aljinnati wal nas, they would

00:25:07--> 00:25:09

just start over. Remember in Tarawiyah, you'd hear

00:25:09--> 00:25:11

often they'd at least read a few more

00:25:11--> 00:25:11

ayahs

00:25:12--> 00:25:14

from the Al Baqarah. Why? To say I

00:25:14--> 00:25:16

recognize that I'm not done.

00:25:16--> 00:25:18

Shaitan's not done so I'm not done.

00:25:19--> 00:25:22

And there the hadith that mentions also that

00:25:22--> 00:25:24

Allah loves when someone is reciting the Quran.

00:25:26--> 00:25:28

Is like someone that is constantly on the

00:25:28--> 00:25:30

move. The only thing is finishing reading the

00:25:30--> 00:25:31

Quran.

00:25:31--> 00:25:33

The same way is another thing as shaitan

00:25:33--> 00:25:35

no longer be he doesn't retire. He's no

00:25:35--> 00:25:38

longer being at waswasul khanas. So, you're at

00:25:38--> 00:25:39

the end of the Quran but no don't

00:25:39--> 00:25:41

think this is the end of your relationship

00:25:41--> 00:25:43

with the Quran. Start right over get right

00:25:43--> 00:25:44

back into it

00:25:44--> 00:25:46

this is the idea. As for the reason

00:25:46--> 00:25:49

why, khul a'udu barabilfalaqu a'udu rabi nas,

00:25:49--> 00:25:50

were revealed

00:25:51--> 00:25:53

There is a hadith in Bukhari in Muslim.

00:25:53--> 00:25:54

And I'll end with this.

00:25:56--> 00:25:59

Wherein the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam was

00:25:59--> 00:26:02

targeted by a Jewish sorcerer in Madinah whose

00:26:02--> 00:26:04

name was Labid ibn al Asom.

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

And

00:26:07--> 00:26:08

he was able to

00:26:10--> 00:26:13

get his hands on some hairs that the

00:26:13--> 00:26:15

of the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasalam that had

00:26:15--> 00:26:17

come off in one of his combs.

00:26:17--> 00:26:19

And so he was able to retrieve those

00:26:19--> 00:26:22

hairs and tie them into knots and cast

00:26:22--> 00:26:23

spells into them. Okay?

00:26:27--> 00:26:29

And then this was tossed into a well

00:26:29--> 00:26:30

and buried so that we would not be

00:26:30--> 00:26:32

able to undo the knots and dismantle,

00:26:33--> 00:26:36

diffuse the bomb basically, right? Dismantle the spell.

00:26:36--> 00:26:39

Until the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasalam began to

00:26:39--> 00:26:40

fall sick

00:26:41--> 00:26:45

and began to become unsure of certain decisions

00:26:45--> 00:26:47

he made Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:26:48--> 00:26:48

What decisions?

00:26:49--> 00:26:51

The rotation between

00:26:51--> 00:26:52

his wives

00:26:53--> 00:26:55

because he was committed to justice and so

00:26:55--> 00:26:57

he would have a perfect cycle and start

00:26:57--> 00:26:59

over to give them each and equal amount

00:26:59--> 00:27:02

of his attention and time Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:27:02--> 00:27:05

He began to forget which wife I was

00:27:05--> 00:27:08

at previously which one is entitled next.

00:27:10--> 00:27:11

Until finally,

00:27:12--> 00:27:14

Jibreel alaihis salam came to him and began

00:27:14--> 00:27:17

to perform Ruqya on him and then Allah

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

Azzawajal

00:27:17--> 00:27:20

revealed to him, Khul A'udu Bi Rabil Falaq

00:27:20--> 00:27:23

and Khul A'udu Bi Rab Bin Nas and

00:27:23--> 00:27:24

commanded him to recite them.

00:27:25--> 00:27:26

And these are 11 verses

00:27:27--> 00:27:29

5 in kull a'udu bi Falak and 6

00:27:29--> 00:27:30

in kull a'udu bi Rabbil Nas

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

And

00:27:32--> 00:27:34

as he read each of these verses,

00:27:34--> 00:27:35

each of the

00:27:36--> 00:27:39

11 knots was undone until he finally sprung

00:27:39--> 00:27:42

up, recovered from this, salallahu alaihi wasalam. And

00:27:42--> 00:27:45

then Jibreel alaihi wasalam informed him where it

00:27:45--> 00:27:46

was and they

00:27:46--> 00:27:48

retrieved what was buried

00:27:49--> 00:27:50

of sort of assets.

00:27:50--> 00:27:52

By the way, some people have

00:27:52--> 00:27:54

a have a problem with this hadith. They

00:27:54--> 00:27:56

say I refuse to believe. Like I heard

00:27:56--> 00:27:58

someone who like became dismissive of Sahih al

00:27:58--> 00:28:01

Bukhari. This hadith is highly authentic in Bukhari

00:28:01--> 00:28:01

and Muslim.

00:28:02--> 00:28:04

It got dismissive of the most authentic hadith

00:28:04--> 00:28:05

books because it insults the prophet salallahu alaihi

00:28:05--> 00:28:07

wa sallam. How does it insult the prophet

00:28:07--> 00:28:08

salallahu alaihi wa sallam? Because it says that

00:28:08--> 00:28:09

he was sort of

00:28:10--> 00:28:12

impacted by black magic.

00:28:14--> 00:28:15

What's your response?

00:28:21--> 00:28:23

How can you say the Prophet SAW

00:28:23--> 00:28:25

was sort of impacted by black men? The

00:28:25--> 00:28:27

prophet was attacked many times in his life.

00:28:27--> 00:28:29

Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. Right?

00:28:30--> 00:28:31

He was attacked by a sword and he

00:28:31--> 00:28:31

bled.

00:28:32--> 00:28:34

Right or wrong? Salallahu alayhi wasalam.

00:28:35--> 00:28:35

He was

00:28:36--> 00:28:36

knocked unconscious

00:28:37--> 00:28:38

at Uhud.

00:28:38--> 00:28:41

He lost teeth alayhi sallam. The armor punctured

00:28:41--> 00:28:42

into his face salatu rabbi wasalamu alayhis salamu

00:28:42--> 00:28:42

alayhis salamu alayhis salamu alayhis salamu alayhis salamu

00:28:42--> 00:28:43

alayhis salamu alayhis salamu alayhis salamu alayhis salamu

00:28:43--> 00:28:43

alayhis salamu alayhis salamu alayhis salamu alayhis salamu

00:28:43--> 00:28:44

alayhis salamu

00:28:46--> 00:28:48

alayhis salamu alayhis salamu alayhis salamu alayhis salamu

00:28:48--> 00:28:49

alayhis This is actually a major objective that

00:28:49--> 00:28:51

the Quran is filled with.

00:28:51--> 00:28:53

But you're gonna dismiss the hadith because they

00:28:53--> 00:28:55

show a vulnerability of the prophet salallahu alaihi

00:28:55--> 00:28:56

wa sallam. The Quran

00:28:56--> 00:28:58

goes to great lengths to tell

00:29:00--> 00:29:01

us,

00:29:02--> 00:29:03

I'm a human being like you. I'm nothing

00:29:03--> 00:29:06

new. I'm just like the other messengers. I'm

00:29:06--> 00:29:07

a human being. I'm a human being. I'm

00:29:23--> 00:29:25

raise his prestige. And the third thing is

00:29:25--> 00:29:26

how else do we know what to do?

00:29:26--> 00:29:28

Raise his prestige. And the third thing is

00:29:28--> 00:29:30

how else do we know what to do

00:29:30--> 00:29:32

in similar situations if this didn't happen to

00:29:32--> 00:29:34

him Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, right?

00:29:35--> 00:29:36

You know like the hadith also of Dhuri

00:29:36--> 00:29:37

Adain.

00:29:39--> 00:29:41

I will write a narration, Sahih Bukhari, the

00:29:41--> 00:29:42

Prophet

00:29:42--> 00:29:45

prayed Dhuhr or Asr as 2 rakas.

00:29:47--> 00:29:48

It doesn't make any sense. Someone can say

00:29:48--> 00:29:50

that doesn't make any sort of sense like

00:29:50--> 00:29:52

at least 3, like why 2? Like

00:29:53--> 00:29:53

by the way,

00:29:54--> 00:29:55

the salas were all 2.

00:29:56--> 00:29:57

And then

00:29:58--> 00:30:00

became 4 unless you were traveling.

00:30:01--> 00:30:03

So 2 is very imaginable. Okay? That was

00:30:03--> 00:30:05

the norm. That was the default in the

00:30:05--> 00:30:07

beginning as the site he was being accustomed

00:30:07--> 00:30:08

to their prayers.

00:30:08--> 00:30:10

And so he prayed too. And so when

00:30:10--> 00:30:11

he finished the prayers,

00:30:13--> 00:30:15

he got up and said, Yeah, a man

00:30:15--> 00:30:16

called Dhul Yaday, he was known as Dhul

00:30:16--> 00:30:18

Yaday because he had very long arms. So,

00:30:18--> 00:30:19

the guy with the long arms said, You

00:30:19--> 00:30:20

Rasulullah,

00:30:21--> 00:30:22

you prayed only 2. He said, No, I

00:30:22--> 00:30:24

didn't. And then everybody

00:30:24--> 00:30:26

chimed in, Yes, you did.

00:30:26--> 00:30:29

So he conceded sallallahu alaihi wa sallam and

00:30:29--> 00:30:30

he prayed 2 rak'ahs.

00:30:31--> 00:30:33

And after he prayed those 2 more rak'ahs,

00:30:33--> 00:30:35

he offered the 2 prostrations that we all

00:30:35--> 00:30:36

do when we forget something.

00:30:37--> 00:30:40

And had Allah not caused him to forget,

00:30:40--> 00:30:42

we would not know what to do in

00:30:42--> 00:30:44

our prayers when we forget. That's all.

00:30:46--> 00:30:49

As for anyone assuming that this narration sort

00:30:49--> 00:30:51

of is a charge against his prophethood or

00:30:51--> 00:30:52

his reliability

00:30:52--> 00:30:54

and the Quran says the shayateen have no

00:30:54--> 00:30:55

access to the revelation.

00:30:56--> 00:30:58

This narration has nothing to do with revelation.

00:30:58--> 00:31:00

This is part of his human endeavors,

00:31:00--> 00:31:01

his marital

00:31:02--> 00:31:02

sort of,

00:31:04--> 00:31:04

life.

00:31:05--> 00:31:07

There is no narration you will ever find

00:31:07--> 00:31:10

that says the sha'ateen sort of, undermined

00:31:10--> 00:31:12

the communication of the Quran, the transmission of

00:31:12--> 00:31:14

the Quran. And he he he mentioned verses

00:31:14--> 00:31:16

wrong. No way. Impossible.

00:31:17--> 00:31:17

Right?

00:31:18--> 00:31:22

So they there is no concern here regarding

00:31:22--> 00:31:22

his,

00:31:22--> 00:31:24

veracity, his reliability

00:31:24--> 00:31:26

to bring to us the message. This is

00:31:26--> 00:31:28

completely separate. This is sort of a human

00:31:29--> 00:31:32

difficulty he had, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. And

00:31:32--> 00:31:33

and granted it to his Ummah through him.

00:31:32--> 00:31:33

and granted it to his Ummah through him.
