Meanwhile salatu salam ala so you didn't know what the Imam you know have you been? Was FBI NSA they went into my classroom in Mohammed bin Abdullah and he wants to have a tea with a woman and the
inner human Dean Subhanak Milena Elana
Hurley Sunday which
is smart
shall come with Jannetty Mozilla.
I praise a lot of mighty I send prayers and blessings upon the final messenger Allah's mercy to all of humanity. Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
and I've ever witnessed that there is no God worthy of worship but Allah and the Prophet Muhammad is indeed his slave Servant and Messenger.
We say as the angel said, glory be to you Oh Allah, no knowledge have we accept that what you have taught us Indeed you are the All Knowing the all wise. I ask Allah subhanaw taala to give you purity and to reward you for these last steps inshallah that you took towards this masjid, and that he makes us of the dwellers of Paradise altogether in sha Allah with the Beloved Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
sisters we continue with the seat and we are in sorted
did we have homework last time before I forget?
We had
we don't even know if we had
I don't remember. I don't think we answered it last time and we didn't we didn't get anything. So today inshallah we need to find a homeless question.
We, we left off
I believe in the verse of verse six right. And we didn't start selling we finished six Correct.
I'll just repeat the first
that's
all right.
The end of it. Unless they breastfeed for you, we spoke about how the person the husband is supposed to spend on his wife if she is pregnant, regardless, right? Regardless of it as Paula kraja or Palekh.
Whether he has the chance to take her back or whether she's gone, she's pregnant, she must spend on her. And this is the wisdom behind specifically mentioning it otherwise, the generality of the verse in the beginning which is to place them in a section of your house. This applies to both. Now,
according to many scholars,
from the first verses that we reviewed,
we spoke about the issue of the spending and the dwelling. Right. If she is divorced, we said however, that
majority of scholars said there is no NASA
and the HANA Villa and even cathedral supported it and others said not only does he not spend on the wife that he divorces, there is no chance of returning meaning after the third. You are divorced.
In that case, there is no dwelling and there is no spending. Shafilea and Molokhia said there is no spending but there is dwelling, as in this verse, a skinny woman in this country.
But here he's mentioning it specifically about spending upon the pregnant ones. And this is because of their special
To case and the special care that they need and what is in there? How many requires the baby needs, right? So Allah, Allah mentioned specifically, so scholars sent and this is not that this applies to both, if she is pregnant, if you have a chance of taking her back, which is the first two times, or if it's after the third time, there's no chance of her coming back. If she is pregnant, you must spend honor, it's an obligation as opposed to
the other ones, ones that are not pregnant.
What is the opposite of Hamlet inherited?
How long is pregnant? What is the opposite?
Foot Not, not pregnant? No, a left leg, the language is better than
having an
L is
regular without pregnancy.
So as
we said, this is referring to the nursing and that the mother is not obligated to nurse. Because if she was obligated, then it wouldn't be when we are reading here, we're in to ascertain.
But if you are in this court, then they may breastfeed for him another woman. So if it was an obligation, this would not have been set. So it is not an obligation. But it is recommended that she nursed her child in that case, it becomes an obligation if What if she has
the husband has spent on her duty?
No,
becomes an obligation as
the no alternative sounds meaning that the child refused all his nurses, or her nurses, and will only accept to take from her mother or his mother. In that case, the mother is obligated to nurse that child.
There is a thing
that as the
verse was referring to them in
speaking to both of them, right, saying
and confirm on yourself in the acceptable way, but if you are in discord, meaning you and your wife, but then you said
so you see that the speech is has now been transferred from both to
husband,
to the husband or
the wife,
to literal level,
third person so that all the speeches to the mother went out something totally new level.
It's speaking to the mother.
There's a saying that this is a very mild,
let us call it chastisement or insensitive
as the speech is now going to the mother, that you should nurse your child,
it is better for you to nurse your child in the situation that we are discussing, if she decides not to do so, it is her prerogative unless as we said it is an obligation.
You can live
in a
city
let another fluff spend from his wealth, and he was provision is restricted. Let him spend from what Allah has given him. Allah does not charge a soul except according to what he has been given.
or Allah will bring about after hardship is
this shows us that a person in this case the husband is only obligated to spend as much as they can.
And
the spending here is referring specifically to the issue of the nurses, meaning that he will give some money to his wife to nurse the child, but he will only give as much as he can give and he doesn't have to give anything more. And it also shows that
he should only spend what he can that the wife should not demand
more than his capacity. So neither Shouldn't he
Give too little, you should give her what he would give to any other nurse because if she refuses is gonna get another
one is usually paid.
And on the other hand the wife should also remember the good times between them and not demand more than
demand can provide.
So, let them let the man spend of his wealth
of what he can and he was provision is restricted.
Let him spend from what Allah has given him woman
spray and he doesn't have
to islands forgiving and merciful spend on what you can do what you can set up Allah
right?
As much as you can, or to the best of your ability
usually we don't use that word in Arabic. In that meaning, right?
When we say the three letter verb,
we're usually referring to or we're referring to ability and put them up and so on. But here it's being used for restriction.
This is very important in order to understand another i
I feel it's a homework question coming on
you need this meaning to understand another item. If you don't have this meaning you won't understand the item and it will cause you confusion. What is this
the meaning of
to be restriction here
here's nothing, it has nothing to do.
It is the other meaning. And it's very important for the other if this is homework inshallah for next time.
The question clear,
no,
no one was gonna tell me either.
Here, this three letter verb.
In this case Cadila. Specifically, here is this being used to refer to restriction, but usually, this three letter verb is used to denote ability or to speak about, and destination and so on predestination, but here it's talking about restriction restricting of wealth.
This meaning
is what allows you to understand another if that means this word is used. Another word deduction is this word exists in another area. And to understand that correctly, you have to see it in light and this meaning find the
clear.
Well, the meaning is restriction.
That means restriction clear.
Sorry, the normal meaning is ability, ability and sowing. And Allah's idea and so on. With the exception is good. The restriction here it's speaking about restriction, it's not necessarily an exception, it's another meaning
you want us to find the area where you need that meaning to understand this
it's the same meaning. And here there's no confusion.
Luckily found an eye aware that meaning is being used. But it is not that higher because there's no confusion. It's clear he even said other eras, right? But then the other is not you will find that
with Sora Forgive me the sooner it's finished, finished.
Let's do some searching we have to go and look and open the Quran and ask people of knowledge and so on.
Okay
woman
so, last time to Ireland was numbered, so beyond that which it has been given, this is similar to the other famous IRA which we love, which is
that you can live in law in lungs. Very important and very important in different situations. Here he says, The following
is speaking specifically about wealth that Allah has chosen will not burden a soul or require a little more than they can give. And this is the Mercy of Allah subhanho wa Taala and this is something
But
we, as brothers and sisters and families and husbands and wives need to understand from each other. If Allah azza wa jal does not burden me beyond my capacity than I should not burden my father beyond his capacity, the wife should not burden her husband beyond his capacity and vice versa.
These matters are the matters which we need to learn.
This is a confirmation, a sure and certain statement
nothing unequivocal about it.
There's no such thing as permanent versus permanent tribulation or testing or difficulty, Allah will make ease after the patient rather, be patient my system fear Allah subhanaw taala woman Allahumma Harada Allah azza wa jal will meet after difficulty is
what you don't know when it may be other Jihad Allah Allah condition.
And how many the city was insolent toward the command of its Lord and His messengers. So we took it to severe account and punished it with a terrible punishment?
How many
people's before us nations before us so many? My brothers and sisters we don't know about?
Maybe we don't always
see the full wisdom behind mentioning these verses and the files because we have not seen those people and what Allah azza wa jal did to them as any
pass through the original dwellings of Sammut.
Raise your hand because I have not anyone
the
know the people of
South Jordan, North Saudi.
Okay, okay.
samode.
On television, in the books, the pictures that we see these places Subhanallah Of course, how do you?
How are you going to live it? If you don't see these dwellings, no fences, maybe the dwellings of some wood, we know where it is, right? And we know the approximate location, yes, it was completely destroyed.
Nothing was was left undone, but we know the approximate location and
and he came up to them in centuries, and they passed by the way the dwellings of the moon when they were going through the book, right.
And he said to the Sahaba, don't pass by these Wellings unless you are weeping. Why out of humility, remembering what Allah subhanaw taala did to them. Right, and this is why some of these places nowadays are tourist sites, where people go to take pictures and enjoy themselves, they don't feel that this is a place where the Wrath of Allah subhanaw taala destroys. The idea is, when you see this reality, you you taste the Quran more. When you see this, you tasted more, when you think that the nations are not only added, these are the popular ones Allah azza wa jal mentioned to you, than some would not have
been America cathedra but many, many of them in between the many generations of people.
We know the the Hadith that Prophet Muhammad peace be upon I mentioned that there were 124,000 prophets, we're talking about 1000s of nations that were destroyed.
So many a city that was destroyed, if only people will remember of only people who will take aim at only people will listen and
respond to the advancement of Allah subhanho wa Taala so many a city and we continue to disobey and we continue to associate partners with Allah and he continues to disbelief and we continue to improve
and we continue to play he doesn't exist.
I will not afraid that Allah azza wa jal destroy us like he destroys the ones before us.
Fear Allah or people fear Allah will nations.
Allah subhanaw taala has destroyed many city like you.
And they are now stories that we read about stories that we should
to pick from
virtually
it was insolent toward the command of its Lord and His messengers. This could be a few analyze the Arabic, insolent toward the Command of Allah and the command of his messengers, or it can be the Command of Allah and His messengers. Both are acceptable linguistically in the Arabic language.
And Sinead, when we talk about Tessa,
what does that mean?
Accounts taking them, taking them to account, okay, so we took it to severe account, other than mentioned them as if they are two different things.
Taking into account could be something a priori to the punishments, such as the warnings of the messengers and the prophets, taking them to account until eventually, the punishment actually came. There is an opinion, but this may refer to,
because usually when we're talking about, it isn't
so much data
other than Nuka. But then, if that is the case, then you say, Well, the next idea, or the one after that tells us that a lot of those get prepared for them a painful punishment, on the Day of Judgment. So this must be in the dunya.
So much of this is in the dunya, holding them to account before the punishment, or the punishment itself is holding you to account. This is what you deserve. This punishment didn't just come out of nowhere. It's part of what you earn with your own hands. It's part of what you reap the hustle.
So we took it severe comp and punished it with a terrible punishment.
The punishments of Allah subhanaw taala are so many, and varying all of them, through a soldier of the soldiers of Allah subhanaw taala, whether that is wind, or water, or the earth, and the the earthquakes and so on, so many different ways loss power, the punishment, and he is the all capable
event
was small, and it tasted the bad consequence of the affair
with your own hands.
This is not something that Allah
does not punish people
in jest, or because they don't deserve it, or without sending them a messenger. This is very important. And many non Muslims have asked this question.
What about people who didn't receive the message? Who didn't have a messenger? Who didn't hear you claim?
Islam as the religion it is the truth from God and so on. Well, what if someone didn't hear about it? Tell them to show them the iron
with them was shown that I don't speak of my own. I am telling you what God Almighty says in the pod let them build their respect for the Quran.
They asked you and what about people who didn't hear about the message.
They will not be held to account they don't know if you're saying it or your or your shake is telling you or someone else. Allah says this
Basara Sula, this is a rule, a hard and fast rule. Allah azza wa jal does not punish unless they received a messenger
and if they didn't receive a messenger immediately, as is our case, now this is Prophet Muhammad wa Salam is the seal of the prophets, then it means
not receiving the message itself from people who claim to follow that messenger SallAllahu wasallam that is us Inshallah, people are calling to Allah subhanaw taala if they didn't receive the message, than they are not punishable by Allah subhanaw taala and sometimes they ask people in the Amazon jungle people in the desert, and it's true, there are people who are so uneducated, so poor, May Allah help them
so completely out of touch with this world. Let me make them do about this.
You see what I'm saying? Well, I couldn't have done about
this is part of what their own hands have reaped. They got the message they got the warnings Allah azza wa jal is most Merciful. They got one warning after another after another, the Jews got 10s of warnings, one after another, a miracle after another, each one is enough to come
completely detach you from Cooper and throw you into the field of email.
And yet
they say they believed and then they disbelieve, they can, they are told to enter the city repenting to Allah subhanaw taala. And instead of going and repenting to Allah turned around and they walk the other way Subhan Allah is the, the audacity of the Jews. The mountain was pleased over their heads, it was gonna fall upon them, have they not repented to Allah, Allah replacer
and they repent Allah and then Allah says and seek them, the mountain itself as it is, was
placed above them and it was about to fall on their heads, right? One after another
one after another, in some verses is mentioned that Musa Ali Salam was given how many signs
right.
These are some of them that I just mentioned the lotus and the frogs and blood and so on with
the emery helicopter.
And the outcome of its affair was total loss and this is the true loss.
Loss prepare for them as severe punishment. So fear Allah who you have understanding who have believed, Allah has sent down to you a message.
Allah has prepared for them a painful and severe punishment. This is
this is in hellfire. Well,
Allah subhanaw taala mentioned about elephants,
they were punished in the dunya
they were punished
in their graves, and they will be punished the most severe punishment in
amongst the honey, the situation, the ones were against a loss is loss after loss, loss and loss and loss on the
he mentioned the punishment of Allah subhanaw taala the most severe punishment in the NFL. And then he turns to the believers.
Fear Allah Oh, you have understanding who hadn't been
Elia.
Notice that last panel,
call them here winning and bad, who have believed? Usually, Allah subhanaw taala will just refer to the believers. In other verses, he'll refer to this.
On here he says, Allah
who are
who are the people of understanding the ones who believe.
And don't listen to what you hear today, that those who believe the faithful the ones who follow religion, these are the poor, and the downtrodden, and the ones who lack understanding, and the ones who maybe are uneducated, as they say, and the anachronistic the people who go back to 1400 years, no, my dear brothers and sisters, these are willing, these are the people of understanding the people who believe those are the ones of understanding, the ones who do not believe do not have understanding, what they understand is that which is apparently Allah Moon Allah,
they understand what they can see, they cannot understand the depths of what they cannot see. And that is the hype. And this is why this is a very important quality of the believers. You mean they believe in the unseen, but it is not unseen and without indication is it?
Is it concrete
that you can never understand or deduce. Without knowing about it or without knowing about it's from the Quran or something else. You can believe in Allah is
correct.
It is not a it's not a tunnel.
Meaning that it is completely unseen and without indication. Everything has indication when knowing the so called people who cannot see and tell you you believe in something you cannot see. I say yes. And you believe in something you cannot see said no.
I only believe in that which I can see. really
jump in jumps and he comes back down. Why did you come back down gravity? Really? Where's God? I don't see. Why do you believe in gravity? No, this is something known Subhan Allah gravity is known but Allah has not
Gravity is known, but Allah is something unknown or that we cannot understand or conclude.
Can you see gravity? Has anyone seen gravity? No, what have you seen? You have seen the consequence of gravity. And I have seen the consequences of Allah azza wa jal and his existence and his creation.
This is the way they play with their arguments
are the people who believe
even if some of them may be uneducated, there are much smarter in that respect. When people who are educated and that education
dissuade them from Allah, the religion of Allah,
Allah,
Allah.
Allah
Allah has sent down to you a message
usually when the kid comes in,
it is referring to
usually the kid coming in the Quran is referring to the Quran itself. Yes, Nick is in the religious sense means remembrance that right? But in many places you'll find vicar is mentioned as the Quran. Now it may come and denote other things. Okay. But usually, this is the popular opinion they can the first and this is what most scholars said about this I also cadenza Allah, Allah azza wa jal has sent down to you a message, this message being
brothers and sisters, Why did Allah azza wa jal now tell us Subhanallah right after the verses of divorce, Allah, Allah tells us about the cities that disobeyed.
You notice that there was the
the disciplining by using hope in some of the previous verses, woman yet tequila, these are all our incentives woman yet
only a tequila, fear of most panel, this is an incentive to obey the command. This is target, right? And then you have to hit
here you have the opposite, beautiful way Allah subhanaw taala discipline, ask any person any expert, they have any knowledge of psychology or any knowledge of the economy
and ask them about the concept of discipline.
They all know discipline has these two sides,
hope and fear, right? Reward and punishment is the same everywhere. And the Quran is filled with this awesome. So after having given the incentive to obey, this is me wanting to not disobey. Look at what happened to the previous nations who disobeyed Allah subhanaw taala and mocked that His Verses and didn't implement what Allah subhanaw taala commanded.
When they.
T sent a messenger Salallahu Salam reciting to you the distinct verses of Allah, that he may bring out those who believe and do righteous deeds from darkness into the light, and whoever believes in the law in those righteousness, He will admit him into gardens beneath which rivers flow to abide there in forever Allah will have perfected for him a provision
learn
to understand this we need to see the few words just before that
was sent down to you
most popularly.
So what does it mean then? It says Rasul Allah.
The translators helped you by putting in parentheses these two words he said.
But in the Quran, it's not there. Immediately it goes to the messenger.
envelope, don't you a message, a messenger
scholars different about understandings.
Some scholars have now minority
said that
and the one of the ones mentioned Mrs. Lehmann suit in his famous book.
The popular opinion is that one of them is what the transmitters put for you which is he sent meaning that the
here is
what is the verb that Allah, He sent a messenger, okay.
There is another grammatical tool in Arabic
whereby
a lot of showing you
how Prophet Muhammad wa Salam is the one responsible for you, arriving at this and understanding it, he is the reason for this Wikus coming to us in the first place from Allah Allah, salam after Allah Tada. And he is the reason for us understanding it and implementing it. Another nice meaning that says,
mention is that yes, we know Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam himself was a walking
say that I should have said he was a walking Quran. He was the embodiment of the Quran, from Allah, Allah you.
So Allah rasool and yet
he is the one who brought us with Quran how a messenger reciting to you the distinct verses of Allah, that he may bring out those who really believe and do righteous deeds from the darkness into the light. Notice, usually, when
Allah subhanaw taala mentioned coming,
the sending of the verses, the sending of the verses,
and the reciting of the verses. This is to bring
out of the darkness into the light. Technically everyone, correct?
Everyone, the Tao is to all of humanity, the religion of Allah is for all of humanity. Yet here and this is what is usually mentioned, right? Here, it is mentioned that he may bring out those who believe and do righteous deeds
as opposed to so it's almost as if he's telling you that the messenger coming and reciting these distinct verses to you is so that he may bring out those who believe, and the righteous Gandhi's, but technically, everyone's supposed to believe. And the reason for the sending of the Messenger of Allah is what all of humanity believes right? In the heart of
this nation of yours is one nation and I am your Lord, so worship Me. So everyone is supposed to believe in Allah and follow the message. But this is
referring to the ones who respond to that message, who will benefit from the recitation of who will benefit from the sending of the Quran, who will benefit from Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam those who believe and do righteously, the other ones did not.
They did not benefit. And not only that, it was an argument against them, that he may bring out those who believe and do righteous deeds from darkness into the light.
And whoever believes in Allah and does righteousness, He will admit him into gardens beneath which means flow, is it acceptable to believe in Allah and say Allah is Forgiving and Merciful and then I neglect doing good deeds
is not sufficient love woman
even though we know
that
email,
Eman itself
is what will save us from her fire? Correct?
Just email
but not only that, email itself
in its strict definition, and the definition of Islamic scholars
includes or excludes deeds
includes deeds.
And we know
this was a famous debate and the opinion of Hanifa Muhammad Allah at one point was that email does not include this but it is said that even he then changed that opinion. We know all of the other trees email they often Eman includes deeds
meaning to be called a believer. They not only have to say it was there and believe it in their hearts, there have to be real deeds and actions that prove the schema. Otherwise, if someone says
that they don't pray, they don't give. They don't
want his belief was vision or commanded you to do all of these things. And these are simple things. I don't mean at the end. These are things that are known out of necessity that everyone but no one is excused for being ignorant with right.
So that already includes that. But Alonso just goes woman
you mustn't do righteous good deeds.
Pablo Evanier Hiva when Allah azza wa jal is speaking about the day of judgment and the end sort of land. And he's talking about how on the day of judgment
the man will not help
but fee money. So what is the the natural consequence of mmm,
doing good deeds doing righteous will be the natural consequence of belief in the first place, believe in Allah and do righteous deeds.
And in that case, those people will be taken from the darkness into the light may Allah subhanaw taala make us of those. And we know as always that darkness is plural and light is singular. And the wisdom behind that is what?
Sorry.
What else? Oneness of Allah.
Thought I was mentioning something obvious why darkness is and only one light.
There's only one light to follow, right? And this is the light of Islam, and there are all darkness.
Right?
We cannot say there is more than one life. No one's only one might.
Some of the actually not from many people, whether religious or irreligious, whether Christian or Jew or Buddhist or something else. They'll tell you there are many roads leading to Rome. And likewise, there are many roads to God.
Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, anything you want. They all lead to God Almighty, Allah.
No, Allah is absolved of this. There's only one way.
How do you explain that to them?
How can they believe that there's only one way in other things. If you talk about this in from a scientific approach, and you tell them something, which is completely scientifically incorrect. But they know this is wrong. So no, this is right. And this is right. So no, they're completely contradictory. I say, and so is our beliefs. I believe in one God, and you believe that God is this and God is that and God is multiple gods and other things.
We can agree, if we agree on the basics, but there are certain basics that we disagree upon. Of course, I'm not saying that we should necessarily highlight those differences, that we're usually you try to show them some of the similarities. But the idea is that in the end, because once they say to you, there are many roads leading
or many paths to Allah, your Dawa is over. Because what they're telling you is, you're correct. And so I know, I respectfully disagree. We cannot both be correct. for one simple reason. You what you and I are saying are completely contradictory. How can they both be correct? That's the same in science. Right? You tell me about something which is scientifically incorrect and something which is correct. And he says, correct. This is unacceptable you all accept it in five I don't accept it in religion definitely should not accept it in faith. So there's only one light
and the rest are darkness
and whoever believes in Allah and does righteousness He will admit him to Gardens beneath which rivers flow to abide there in forever Allah subhanaw taala makers of those highly Dena
abiding there in forever without ever that's at that point is killed. That is killed right? We know the Hadith. What does the Hadith
that says killed?
There's a right it is brought as a sheep and it is slaughtered. Right? That is slaughtered. Meaning it's symbolic to say there's no more desks. There's either eternal punishment or eternal
Pleasure of Allah subhanaw taala makes us of those who are pleased in paradise underneath which rivers flow. And you can just start thinking about paradise and what paradise is
and start working for this work for these dwellings under which rivers flow, something you've never ever seen in your life, a dwelling under which a river flows. Where have you seen this?
Mentioned that almost every time paradise is mentioned, Jana has remained and have a dwelling under which rivers flow we're not talking about a dwelling where you see a river passing. We're talking about dwellings and see rivers passing under you. Have you ever walked on water?
I don't think so. Have you?
I have not walked on water, walk on water. We've all read them ships comes in, but haven't walked on water unless some claim that they have certain powers of
Allah, this is the confirmation. He says Allah will have protected for him a provision. The Jana is like no other risk. This is the best risk, the best provision and this is where
Allahu Allah there's no comparison between this convenience.
And there's an I O which which exhibits this beautifully.
What is the I am
talking specifically about risk, even mentioned, what type of risk and he showed you that this is completely different than what is in dunya.
And you know it also
no
mean haven't seminar, this card has an economic what to begin with a Shabbiha. This is what they say when they saw the risk of gender. They said this is the same that we have before Taliban, they're completely different. And this is why I love
talking about how they found it to be similar, but they are dissimilar. They're completely different. There's no comparison. Is there any comparison between the alcohol and the alcohol?
Nothing. This is why again, they come to you and they tell you you don't drink alcohol here you say you claim you're gonna have a compare that not the same alcohol, please.
It's not the disgusting alcoholic today. It's not the alcohol that gives you headaches. It's not the alcohol that makes you vomit.
It is pure, pure wine. Not that which makes you crazy and makes you insane as it does in dunya the alcohol of alcohol is completely different or the wine of an alcohol.
But
he mentioned risk to you before right?
Along the way.
Okay, this is dunya he's mentioning to you the best is on a lower level it is in paradise. And we know that Prophet Muhammad Salim said that the majority of the dwellers of Paradise are
the the poor,
the people who are deprived of risk and dunya
they will tell I have the risk of
this is not to say that we should become poor.
And Allah, Allah goes along that he provide for you and that you thank him for that provision. And Allah loves that you spend what you have been given and the poor are jealous of the rich because they are able to spend not only to make the kid but also to federate with Allah has given them this is a great blessing from Allah subhanaw taala. But the problem is why are the most of the dwellers because the ones were given provision in the dunya got busy with the dunya
and this is why if we are opposed God forbid, we would have loved to have
lived poor rather than to live rich and to have that
distract us from Allah subhanaw taala.
name is
Alisha?
It is Allah who has created seven heavens and a
To the earth, they like them, his command descends among them. So you may know that Allah has over all things competent, and that Allah has encompassed all things in knowledge.
Now, what's
the Surah, showing you the magnificence of Allah subhanaw taala.
And all of it is also an incentive
to apply all of the commands that Allah azza wa jal mentioned in the beginning.
Concerning
magnifying Allah subhanaw taala in our hearts
is great assistance to us to apply Allah's commands, and especially if something is difficult. You remember the magnificence of Allah subhanaw taala. You remember the rewards of following the law and listening to him? And you remember the punishment if you disobey Allah subhanaw taala is showing you his magnificence. He reminds you that He is the One who created seven heavens of the earth the likes of them.
Notice, Allah Who levy Haluk for those who are memorizing the Quran, Allah, Allahu Allah. Allahu Allah is the One who created and there are several verses in the Quran where you find that phrase saying that it is Allah.
Meaning as opposed to anyone else has a heart hunt for Allah.
Allah, Allah venum, Indonesia. This is the creation of Allah told me what they want, besides him have created have they created anything better than system? Can they create a fly? Can they create one hair, the hair of your beard?
Anything nothing is in their hands. But Allah azza wa jal has created seven heavens, Allah, seven heavens one above another. Each one is like a small ring in a desert, compared to the next one, the seven heavens. This is not something small. You just talked about something small, close in a desert. This is the comparison of the first to the second heaven, and then the second to the third and the third to the fourth. And then you feel your head is about to explode. You cannot fathom the this universe, not just the magnificence of the One who created the universe. Subhana wa Tada. Seven Heavens.
pillar for all us civil engineers. Have you been able to erect anything without pillars?
You tell me yes. We have new technology now.
We have new technology. They don't have pillars. That's true.
There are no pillars in the middle. But guess what? Your pillars are humble find
nothing in the middle of it. It's all on the site. I'm saying without pillars.
These heavens have no pillars.
Allah azza wa jal is the one who raised it without Pilis. And Allah subhanaw taala called on us to reflect upon that greatness. Allah is the One who created seven heavens
and not anyone else. Then they create the heavens.
They create the heavens, did Mother Nature create the heavens? did Darwin
didn't
create the heavens chances the new god of today? According to them, chance created the heavens Subhanak Valley these things we know and I'm sure we know precisely how to answer
creating the seven heavens.
This is a cannula this needs. This needs time.
This is
still largely not understood. Woman an ugly Muslim.
It is good
for our email
that we not understanding sometimes. Because it's a test of that.
Because if we knew everything and the wisdom behind it, then it's possible that our belief
is because of our belief in the wisdom behind that thing, or that commandment and so on. But when you don't know the reason
we're talking about pure belief, and this is what he mentioned, when he was talking about culture.
Why do we stone?
What's the wisdom behind it? Yes, we say we are symbolically we are spawning Satan and so on. But otherwise, we're not quite sure we're fooling the rock
or in the direction of another rock.
He said this is something that maybe we don't quite understand the wisdom behind it. To test your faith.
They always need to know the wisdom
for
He wants to be like favorite
in Canada.
I know that he said in his truth, he
is cleaner than ours, even though he may not have seen certain wisdoms, and certain
this miraculousness right from the heavens and the earth, so many things we know now and we understand he's the man was greater than ours explain it to me?
Did he go up in the heavens? Did he see the universe? Did he know that the universe was as vast as we are discovering today? Did they know these things? These things that we are discovering? Why is there a man better than our
wisdom, seeing the wisdom increases? Iman, definitely, we're lacking the right Prophet Ibrahim asked that he see how that is brought about. But if all of your faith is only that undone on that meaning, I just learned something new in Islam.
But I don't understand the wisdom behind it. If your faith
is vastly different before you learn the wisdom and after, do something about my dear brother, my dear sister, if you are sure this will allow us for the wisdom it is increasing speed. But if there is a drastic change, there is a problem. We need to believe no matter what the Sahaba they believe, no matter what they didn't see much of the
many of the verses that you and I understand today, at least to a large extent, they could not explain at the time,
this part of the address, when he talks about the different stages of the embryo, the waves upon waves, in the seeds, one after another when we talk about expanding the universe, it's a reality that we believe in love is a great discovery. They didn't know about it, and so on. They could believe and they were beyond us in belief.
This is
this is telling us that there are apparently
even the footnote says that apparently there are seven Earths
there are seven heavens
this will be the parents meaning
scholars differ a lot on this
and even modern scientists, Islamic scientists and one of them is a recent this recent conference that was going on
one of the researchers mentioned this briefly and he
mentioned that there is the word relief you will hear this opinion if you don't know already that this is referring to the seven levels of the earth the earth as we know is not uniform, there are several stages we know there's a very hot and solid core right this iron core and above it there is a liquid magnetic magnetic liquid right and it's actually fluid Subhanallah This explains the
the magnetism of the earth and so on this is liquid right and you have them further stages above and they are solid. And finally you have the
right which is what we stand on and we walk out and this is the final level and the crest of course is a very thick at any stage of the earth also. Now, scientists will claim the different levels if you will or stages of the earth.
Others will claim there are seven others will say they are they will differ about the numbers
claim that Jasmine this is this woman allegedly misled? Me It is referring to the seven the seven levels of
evil that
is a great way
we have no idea that there were levels in the earth did we it was all one solid rock well for you know for all we knew. But we are discovering now that there are many levels of the earth and each one has the amazing properties and characteristics. The core of the Earth is so hot and so dense. Okay.
Mystery search term, in the end
refuted or at least refused to claim that this is the meaning of this idea. And he left it largely for major discoveries. And salespeople did the same. They also said that this is it's not exactly clear what this is now
part of the agenda
is that a verse need not understood fully
at a certain time, otherwise it wouldn't be just right. Wouldn't be miraculousness scientific miracles in the Quran and Sunnah. If the Companions understood it all and give it to us, where would just be? Right? It is part of the miraculousness of this book, that some verses are lexically, ambiguous
lexically ambiguous meaning the language is ambiguous, it's not exactly clear, it can have more than one meaning. This is part of the richness of the Quran, Don't always try to
make the Quran as one meaning it's not the case. And we know this, many have said this something along those lines. So this miraculousness exhibits itself that way.
For a long time for many generations, they didn't understand some of the verses that we are explaining today in a scientific way. Who knows maybe this idea we cannot exactly understand, maybe people after us, why do we always have to look great, we try to, but we can't claim for certain, that this is indeed what the verse means.
All of this is taking into consideration, that the understanding is when we say when we
are of the Earth, the like of them, that this is referring to similarity in number.
And this is what is apparent, and what most scholars actually took this meaning that the similarity between the heavens and the birth is the number
one so seven heavens and seven
No.
Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu sallam said,
the authentic hadith, that whoever takes
something of a language is not his, that it will be rotated around his neck seven multiples on the day of judgment as part of their punishment.
So to
designers,
just anything you take that it will be rotated around several multiples the hazards specifically mentioned
to workmen had a shiver, shiver, I mean a lot, that Allah azza wa jal will rotate around them that distance seven times from the earth. But it's specifically that the Hadith mentions
seven Earths.
The hadith is clear. And for that reason, some scholars claimed
the similarity is indeed in terms of the number and it is seven, and it's specifically mentioned seven.
And we cannot refer to the level of the earth as an versus what we know we
In addition,
why is it that in every other verse of the Quran,
the verse is mentioned in singular is not mentioned in plural right? Especially when he refers even to creation.
Well,
follows a similar 12 Right.
But here only is the only place in the Quran where it says referring to it as if it is more than one
sorry.
But now, he says one minute,
because you cannot say
it is difficult and this is why
the opinion of Eman cod in left hand is just this, that the other thing
was mentioned that singular, but here he is mentioning it as the only place where he's mentioning, but he cannot say
he said it in the way of women
and did not specify anything else as if he's not taking anything from it. It is just making the earth plural.
The ones who understood it and follow the Hadith. Say there are seven Earths
and this is the opinion of some scholars
and a good number of them that there are seven Earth's not seven levels seven Earth's Saba as mentioned in the Hadith,
but we don't quite understand how or why
or when or where
this is, there was no philosopher that maybe will discover in the future. People are looking for life in outer space or they're looking for those extra arts. They're looking for life on other planets. The Quran flatly refused that theory. No, nothing, make a certain
point clear Allahu Taala Allah, Allah is most knowledgeable and this is good, this is good for our Imam, when Allah
Allah
Allah is the One who knows perfectly the Quran and what is meant by the Quran and the verses of Quran even verses we think we have completely compressed all the meanings, we may continue to discover meanings, Allah seven, there may be something or there may be like,
if you want to go back to the opinions of
many of the self
sent seven Earths and each Earth has creation like on this.
So they understood it to be similar. Allah
you never know
the amount of poverty
mentioned
saying that the ambassador of the Allah on you said you asked me about this if they asked about the AI Of course, they were more keen on Islamic they asked about the site. He said by Allah if I tell you the meaning of this, if you will commit
and cover in this case is that you will disbelieve in
means it is something your minds cannot fathom.
We say Allah
will continue looking We don't claim for certain it is the seven stages or levels of the earth. We don't claim necessarily that
there is life on another planet are there others like us, says what the ISS be apparent meanings.
Allah's most knowledgeable, the precise meaning this is all with the understanding that the similarity between the heavens and the earth is in the numbers. Some scholars said dissimilarity is not in the number necessarily. He says one meaning
not necessarily the meaning
of the mystery in the greatness of its creation.
In the way it was created, we know that they were one right. So what will kind of help?
Right?
The marvelousness
being similar to the marvelousness of the heavens, the creation of the Earth as opposed to the creation of some of what is in the heavens, such as other planets? Not if I say planets, not stars, right? Earth is not a star, right?
The sun is a star. What's the difference between a planet and a star?
any different?
Slides, okay, yes, that's correct.
They're the stars. Okay, they have light, but this is not what I want to get to.
Okay, again, say it again.
Exactly.
Stars are not solid bodies.
They're gaseous bodies. This sun, this perfect circle? Is all guests. Subhanallah isn't that amazing? It's not a solid body. When you look at it, you see, it's a perfect circle. You don't see
anything coming out of the edges. It's all gas
Subhan Allah.
This is the difference. Planets are solid bodies stars are not. So planet Earth, maybe like some of the other planets that we know about solid bodies, the making of the earth. There are similarities in the ways in the structure of the earth, as in the structure of some of the planets, Allahu Allah. But maybe this is the meaning of one minute.
So in this interpretation, Mr. Han is similarity not a number but in
shape in creation in form, and so you're kind of settled on Rubina.
His command descends among them and this seems to refer to the heavens and the earth. The point is the
The command of Allah goes everywhere doesn't just come, there are other earth, there are other
lands.
It is not only the command does not only come here, Allah's command goes, where he desires it goes Subhanallah with that
this this command can be one of two
commands
something that has to do with creation or
no, you mentioned this is what
we talked about Tony.
Tony,
Tony, what Allah decrees
includes that includes destination and life and death and everything that happened.
The other one is
the commands of Allah, the Quran, right? commands and prohibitions. Tony and Dr. Choi, they talked about
the will of Allah which refers to other analysis to show and I think we explained this in the past.
Regardless of which one it is, it descends among them.
Allah is telling us this while
the tabernacle and Allah Allah,
Allah, how can we
so that you may know that Allah has over all things competence, he's telling you, he created the seven heavens and the seven Earth in that interpretation, and the difference between them, why is he telling you that and he is the one who did this and no one else and no other partners and no other gods, he is the one who did this, and the command between them, so that you may know that Allah azza wa jal is over all things people. This is part of the magnificence of ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada that he is overall things capable and that he has come to see everything in his knowledge, nothing.
Nothing is hidden from Allah, the weight of a mustard seed of an atom, nothing is hidden from Allah subhanho wa Taala nothing the seven heavens
and not only seven,
nothing is hidden from Allah. glorify Allah subhanho wa Taala
is rolling around in some star millions of light years away. And Allah says if
you cannot see it in front of you, you can see the the protons and the electrons in the atoms in front of you.
And Allah azza wa jal sees the millions of light years away
Subhana
Allah is the One who created these things and told you about it. And his command the sense between them wherever he desires his command goes, wherever he desires, his angels go and there is the heavens are filled with trillions of angels, as we know worshipping Allah subhanaw taala, day and night without getting word. So that you may know that Allah has over all things capable and so that you may know that Allah has come to all things in his knowledge.
And then when you realize that magnificence becomes easy to follow the commandments
concerning divorce, concerning these are because so slow right? When you see all of this, and then we find difficulty obey Allah. And we say it is difficult to follow the commands of alive to avoid the prohibition of philosophy.
Fill your your, your heart and your brains with the understanding of the magnificence of Allah subhanaw taala. recite the Quran deliberate over the deliberate over the marvels of Allah in the universe and everything becomes easy. And this is the end of the Tafseer of surah Allah, Allah subhanaw taala accept from us and you and may Allah azza wa jal give us understanding if I said anything correct than it is from Allah alone and if I said anything, otherwise it is from me and from the devil.
While she was on
any questions or comments?
Yes?
Yes?
We were borrowing the
main thing is mortgage at
because
Allah is the name of the one and only God,
the Arabic name of the one and only God
of Everything, and
whether they are humans or animals, and of all religions, so Allah is not one of the Muslims.
He is God over all.
I know I might have come in
Yeah,
no, not necessary.
This is this is the way they use it. And they say there's something called Gods and Goddesses. Allah subhanaw taala is absolved of this. But we say for instance, the word Lord.
And yet, there are lords.
There may be male and female Lords according to the belief of some rights. And there are many lords, that people follow and the people supposedly believe in, but the word is used in the
Lord,
lord of this house and the sanctuary and so on.
He can use gone way but we are referring always to the one and only God. God does not have partners that not wise does not have anyone equal to Him in the freshman. It doesn't necessarily mean that when you say God,
you are also referring to goddesses. Does Allah have all of the claim?
But Allah.
Allah is the name of Allah that the Christians use.
Even the Christians,
when they speak about God, they say Allah, because it is the Arabic word for God, they just say no, it
is just for love respect.
It's close to Allah, they refer to
when you say Allah, maybe some non Muslims think this is the God of the Muslims,
this is the lot of everything, this is your God also your God is Allah whether you know it or not the one and only he is the one that we worship
God is just
referring to him being God meaning the creator the sustainer the provider and so on
far
as we can you cannot you really
are Have a
good
evening
if you want to be technical,
God is using
you
but now come on Why
and your God
no,
don't get too tied down to the word.
But what it means
the oneness and you are using it properly, but you
know God is one God, right there is no God
is used in the Quran that people other people claim that he has. Now, the wisdom
behind the name of Allah is that you cannot like you said make for it. A partner or a female something else. It is a lot. And this is why it's a well
no, no, of course no, I'm saying that. You cannot make it female. You see what I'm saying? You cannot make Allah female
or poor or anything else it is
The one and only God, it's an amazing meme, right? Even linguistically. And this is why it is said
that I believe it was
Jay nanny, that
of course, we believe that this is someone
of great status. And Insha Allah, he was a willy nilly of Allah. But we absolve him of what some of the extremists say about him, and that he did things that are completely miraculous and so on. Just because they are being extreme, doesn't mean that we are extreme about him. No, he, SHA, Allah was it was a pious man, a man of God Almighty. So the idea is that it is said that the chiffon came to him in a dream. And he said to him, I am your Lord.
And of course, many people said that before for the Buddha, right? He said, Allah,
are you Allah,
and he was quiet? Because he cannot say He is Allah, he might say I am Lord, because there are people worshipping Him. But Allah,
He didn't answer and therefore he knew he was
part of the New Deal of this names panel. Also in English, when
mentioned, specifically God Almighty, legal, they normally use caps.
When
you're KSG, Jesus is just the word. Right? Right. When they're referring to the one and only God, supposedly, they are there, they capitalize it, okay? It's as a proper noun. Basically, this is God, the Jews go even further, they love God so much, that they don't write the word completely. They just write G, and then a space d, they don't put God because they fear Allah so much. They don't even want to write the name God on paper, this is how much pressure they have. They don't write God. They put j
that they are like a underscore D.
Mashallah.
I'm joking.
I am putting
people
righteousness.
There are concepts in our many people, many people believe that someone who is not doing bad is a good man. Is it a bad approach in Islam, or the people who are doing good things.
Just because you're not doing bad doesn't necessarily mean that you're doing good. Now.
It is good in a relative sense, like Prophet Muhammad said.
When he said that, even smiling in the face of your brother's a smile is a charity, right? But if you cannot even do that,
then
hold off and don't say anything bad this is for the call, so that you're not saying anything bad or what like when he says
so, in a relative sense, not saying something that is good.
And that you are not saying something bad. So you are quiet. But it doesn't necessarily mean that it is what righteous good deeds, here are no righteous good deeds means
to do good deeds and prayers and the gods and everything, all the obligations of Islam.
In the West, sometimes, you know, some people will say, a practicing Muslim and non practicing this is very common
to differentiate between Muslims from you know, background, but this is good in the sense that
it exonerates Islam of the actions of non practicing Muslims. Right? If you say,
we are going to look at Islam by looking at every other Muslim.
What are people going to say about Islam? Simply we say these people do not represent Islam. Or they say, Well, you know what, look at these Muslims.
Or look at this Muslim. He goes and he does this and that and this and that. What does this have to do? This feels nonpracticing? Or if it comes into view, you'll hear this common
she's Muslim and she has a boyfriend or vice versa.
There's nothing wrong with Islam. I know.
They're doing this Subhanallah they are not practicing. And you show them at that point they are not practicing. They do not represent just why they don't want
non Muslims in general. They don't want us to refer to certain non practicing people of their faith and to blame everything on their people.
Most people who are not practicing
so this is not a bad thing to say practicing or non practicing. Because unfortunately
it's mind boggling. There are Muslims all around the world who are just Muslim says Muslim on their ID card or something else, but their lives do not exhibit or portray any semblance of Islam
and the law and the the real practicing Muslims, the real ones are the ones who all pray behind the female Imam.
Please
see, different,
we usually
Yes,
we went to
destroying the cities, right.
Behind that, that's why I said
this is why I said, in every Jonnie in many of the chapters, which are chapters that were revealed in Medina, where they speak about many of the regulations, and the do's and don'ts of Islam and so on, you will find within them many verses that are similar to Mexican verses, which speak about the importance of piety and following the magnificence of Allah and fearing Allah and so on. And this is often and we found many of those verses in between the verses of Quran or when you're talking
to the end of those verses. And here he trains to speaking about the citizen, the destruction of the citizen, this is what I said a little while ago.
This is part of disciplining by using hope and fear. Allah subhanaw taala
was disciplining us, and in following His commandments in the beginning, by giving us hope, in following His commandments, by giving us incentives, and that was by telling us, and whoever appears, Allah, Allah will make a way out for him, and he will provide them for him from where they least expected, and so on and so forth. This is
disciplining by incentives, by reward, and now disciplining by mentioning punishment,
which is talking about the cities and the destruction of the cities, and the consequences of those who disobeyed. This is the wisdom of Allah, Allah and mentioning this after that.
Exactly, exactly. To do and then Allah subhanaw taala, his his, he's given you a lot of the, and he has given you incentive to follow the commands of Allah subhanaw taala, regarding divorce, and so on. And then he told you about the destruction of the cities before who disobeyed Allah subhanaw taala, and knock at his verses, and at his signs,
at his commandments of
the Jews had commandments in their book, and you know, the Jews, the most important thing for them was the law.
And as the Bible says, most important thing it is what the law, the law of Moses, this way upon him, not spirituality, there's nothing called spirituality that they themselves are they differ over. Some say there's, some say there isn't. And God knows what we know all about dunya. For them, it was all about the law. That's why it was very strict. We know that the original Judaism was very strict, it was all about following commandments. Right? No 10 commandments are in their book, and they are covering it, and they are not applying.
And this is why when they came to Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam with the tool,
they had blackened them and so one day has committed fornication, and of course, the punishment for fornication. The Quran is not blackening them, putting black over them and and
the other, showing them in this negative manner and so on and belittling their punishment is
as it is in this story, and probably
we will not find this
and they said we do not find it. And in one narration. The man was covering the face of the devil Rasul Allah, He said, remove your hand, and there was written, the punishment is stoning.
yet, they did not apply. They did not apply. They didn't apply the commands of Allah subhanaw taala. As it came to them, they hit those commandments of Allah, Allah. And this is how we understand that I
don't know how to feel like a zero, right? There are things that you reveal of what has been of the script, scriptures that can do things which you hide, they hid many, many things in the, in their looks.
The Hijab itself read the verses of the Bible for something else.
It is something else, fewer should jump. But no one applies it. No females apply it only the most religious.
Right? Mother Teresa and the other. But the rest do not. And they they claim to have an answer for it. Otherwise,
why don't you? Why don't you talk to us about your job as if it's something and if something happens to you, you have a job also, originally, to play if you're covering it up, and many, maybe many modern Christians who haven't read their Bible day, they don't know it's there.
Go and read it. It's a
woman who doesn't cover them.
She
says it says that the the hair that she has, that this is like her glory, and that she should cover it. No, it's in Corinthians. To find it in Corinthians I think it's 1111 possibly
go needed.
But then they let me find this.
I just I I want you to see it with your own two eyes so that you can believe there's even hijab in the Bible, May Allah guide us.
Through
this is the verse, the brother mentioned,
this is the verse that the brother mentioned and I said, there it is clear, it is just mentioning that
because it mentioned this, specifically, the restriction of this, I am talking about an area where you cannot understand here you can understand it's perfectly clear. This is the meaning behind it.
But in the other eye as you move this meaning
you will not understand the verse
that will cause you confusion. And I know in sha Allah it will benefit you so look for the verse that you can find. I'll tell you about it next time so that we can understand what we are reading.
Allah, Allah
Subhana
