Today,

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

we're gonna focus on one aspect,

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

of the

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

second phase of dawah where the prop the

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

the prophet

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

went public.

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

And it took a very aggressive,

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

you know,

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

way of conveying Islam,

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

you know, by when the people,

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

rejected him, etcetera.

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

When I say aggressive,

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

I mean,

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

you know,

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

idea for idea. You know, he did not

00:00:31 --> 00:00:34

try to compromise with them on any part,

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

and this is what we will see today

00:00:35 --> 00:00:36

tomorrow today.

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

So today, what we are focusing on is

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

the reaction of Quraish.

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

Well, how does a Quraish

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

react to that call of Islam that the

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

prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam brought? So, of

00:00:49 --> 00:00:52

course, they they have followed different tactics, different

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

approaches.

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

One of them was, what they started with

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

was to try to put pressure on his

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

uncle, Abu Talib. So they went to Abu

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

Talib, and we mentioned this before.

00:01:03 --> 00:01:04

You know? And they were this when we

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

say they went to Abu Talib,

00:01:06 --> 00:01:08

we were talking about the leadership of the

00:01:08 --> 00:01:11

society, the leadership of Quraish. This is the

00:01:11 --> 00:01:12

the

00:01:12 --> 00:01:13

the

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

creme of the creme, as they say.

00:01:16 --> 00:01:18

You know? So these were they came to

00:01:18 --> 00:01:21

to to his uncle and said,

00:01:21 --> 00:01:23

your nephew has cursed our

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

4

00:01:24 --> 00:01:25

of our gods,

00:01:26 --> 00:01:28

ridiculed our way of thinking,

00:01:29 --> 00:01:30

you know, and

00:01:32 --> 00:01:35

made fun of our our beliefs, etcetera, etcetera.

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

So stop them. By the way, before I

00:01:38 --> 00:01:40

stop, just as a comment on the side.

00:01:41 --> 00:01:42

You know,

00:01:43 --> 00:01:44

because Allah,

00:01:45 --> 00:01:46

you know, when our Rasul

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

started cursing their gods, and they said, if

00:01:49 --> 00:01:51

you don't stop, we're gonna curse your god.

00:01:51 --> 00:01:53

You know? So Allah Ta'ala,

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

revealed

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

the that do not curse

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

the what the others worship aside from Allah

00:02:05 --> 00:02:07

so that they would so that they don't

00:02:07 --> 00:02:08

curse Allah

00:02:09 --> 00:02:10

in aggression or in,

00:02:11 --> 00:02:14

and without knowledge. Because if they know, they

00:02:14 --> 00:02:16

would not be cursing the creator.

00:02:16 --> 00:02:17

So,

00:02:19 --> 00:02:21

from this, by the way, this area

00:02:21 --> 00:02:22

as well as the hadith,

00:02:23 --> 00:02:24

and just as a side note, as I

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26

said, you know, which is in Bukhari,

00:02:27 --> 00:02:28

that Rasulullah

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

SAWS says,

00:02:31 --> 00:02:32

cursed be the one

00:02:32 --> 00:02:34

who curses his parents.

00:02:36 --> 00:02:37

So they said,

00:02:39 --> 00:02:41

How does the father how does the man

00:02:41 --> 00:02:43

how does the one of us

00:02:43 --> 00:02:45

curse his parents, his own parents?

00:02:46 --> 00:02:47

You know? He said,

00:02:49 --> 00:02:50

you know, that

00:02:54 --> 00:02:57

that the person would curse somebody's father, and

00:02:57 --> 00:03:00

the other person, you know, curses his father.

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

And you curse his mother, and he curses

00:03:02 --> 00:03:04

your mother. So you caused it, in other

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

words.

00:03:06 --> 00:03:08

The the, by the way, they use these

00:03:08 --> 00:03:10

2, the and the hadith,

00:03:11 --> 00:03:13

you know, not exclusively. Now there are others

00:03:14 --> 00:03:16

to show that whatever leads to haram is

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

haram.

00:03:18 --> 00:03:21

So cursing their their father their their gods

00:03:21 --> 00:03:23

is gonna lead to cursing Allah subhanahu wa

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

ta'ala.

00:03:24 --> 00:03:26

You know, that is leads to haram. So

00:03:26 --> 00:03:29

it become the curse in their gods becomes

00:03:29 --> 00:03:29

haram.

00:03:30 --> 00:03:31

Even though it in itself,

00:03:32 --> 00:03:34

you know, it's fine. You're cursing idols. You

00:03:34 --> 00:03:35

know,

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

they're they're there's they're not living

00:03:38 --> 00:03:38

beings.

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

You know?

00:03:41 --> 00:03:43

But since it leads to something that's haram

00:03:43 --> 00:03:45

becomes haram, and that's one of the the

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

rules of.

00:03:46 --> 00:03:48

You know, what leads to haram is haram.

00:03:49 --> 00:03:51

This is from the, the evidence that they

00:03:51 --> 00:03:52

use.

00:03:52 --> 00:03:54

So, anyway, they they said that he ridiculed

00:03:54 --> 00:03:57

our way of thinking, our gods, our beliefs,

00:03:57 --> 00:03:58

etcetera.

00:03:58 --> 00:04:00

So either that you, you know, you you

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

tell him to stop,

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

you know, or

00:04:05 --> 00:04:07

let us handle him, meaning stop protecting him.

00:04:08 --> 00:04:10

And and Abu Talib returned them, you know,

00:04:10 --> 00:04:12

sent them off to, you know, kindly, basically,

00:04:13 --> 00:04:15

without any commitment from him.

00:04:15 --> 00:04:19

But then they made they started ridiculing Rasulullah

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

salam

00:04:20 --> 00:04:22

and belittling the prophet

00:04:22 --> 00:04:25

and calling him a liar. Now he's a

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

sadaq al Amin. He was known all his

00:04:27 --> 00:04:29

life to be the truthful and the honest.

00:04:29 --> 00:04:31

You know? So all of a sudden, now

00:04:31 --> 00:04:34

we're calling you a liar. You know why?

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

Because he brought a message

00:04:36 --> 00:04:39

that is not suitable for their society from

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

their point of view,

00:04:41 --> 00:04:42

that it's going to change

00:04:43 --> 00:04:44

the the,

00:04:44 --> 00:04:46

you know, the setup of the society itself.

00:04:47 --> 00:04:49

And that became that's threatening to their interests

00:04:49 --> 00:04:50

and to their

00:04:52 --> 00:04:55

leadership, their benefits, their leadership positions, etcetera. So

00:04:55 --> 00:04:56

they confronted him,

00:04:57 --> 00:04:59

not because they were not convinced that he

00:04:59 --> 00:05:02

was a prophet. Because as Allah Ta'ala says,

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

waja Haduha

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

waja Haduha wasaikhanathanfusuhumbulmanuwa'aluha.

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

That they denied it. They rejected the message,

00:05:09 --> 00:05:13

but internally inside, they had the absolute belief

00:05:13 --> 00:05:14

that it was a message from, from Allah

00:05:14 --> 00:05:15

Ta'ala.

00:05:15 --> 00:05:17

Ta'ala? Why did they reject it?

00:05:18 --> 00:05:22

Injustice as a act of injustice and arrogance.

00:05:23 --> 00:05:25

Arrogance. Arrogance plays

00:05:26 --> 00:05:28

huge role in the in in deviation,

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

in in not accepting the truth in you

00:05:31 --> 00:05:35

know, because, you know, I somebody tells me,

00:05:35 --> 00:05:37

Mohammed, you have just did something wrong. You

00:05:37 --> 00:05:38

know,

00:05:38 --> 00:05:40

me, I told by you, who are you

00:05:40 --> 00:05:42

to tell me? You know,

00:05:43 --> 00:05:45

and this is this is the arrogance that,

00:05:47 --> 00:05:48

misled them.

00:05:49 --> 00:05:51

So they made fun of our Rasool SAW

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

A'la

00:06:01 --> 00:06:03

Is this, you know, if the if the

00:06:03 --> 00:06:05

disbelievers see you, they take you as a

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

mockery, as a.

00:06:07 --> 00:06:08

They make fun of you.

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

Is this the one who is

00:06:10 --> 00:06:13

talking critically about your gods? He's he's the

00:06:13 --> 00:06:16

one who's talking about your, your gods?

00:06:21 --> 00:06:23

And if they see you, they start making

00:06:23 --> 00:06:25

fun of you. They mock you.

00:06:26 --> 00:06:27

Is this the one whom Allah Ta'ala sent

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

as the messenger

00:06:29 --> 00:06:32

to all mankind? This is the person that

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

Allah chose out of all mankind

00:06:34 --> 00:06:36

so that he would choose him?

00:06:36 --> 00:06:38

Again, mockery and belittling

00:06:38 --> 00:06:39

him, etcetera.

00:06:40 --> 00:06:41

But of course,

00:06:41 --> 00:06:42

you know,

00:06:42 --> 00:06:43

his reaction,

00:06:44 --> 00:06:46

and this is the reaction, you know,

00:06:47 --> 00:06:48

and this is the

00:06:49 --> 00:06:52

the the the what makes the the prophet

00:06:53 --> 00:06:56

somebody can who can be imitated, emulated,

00:06:57 --> 00:06:59

Is that his dua was done on a

00:06:59 --> 00:07:00

human level.

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

It wasn't

00:07:02 --> 00:07:05

angels protecting him. It wasn't, you know,

00:07:08 --> 00:07:11

doing things in a supernatural way. All of

00:07:11 --> 00:07:12

a sudden, he floats in the air and

00:07:12 --> 00:07:15

and he conquers Mecca like that, and he,

00:07:15 --> 00:07:15

you know

00:07:16 --> 00:07:19

whatever he did, alaihis salatu wa sallam, can

00:07:19 --> 00:07:21

be followed by his followers.

00:07:21 --> 00:07:23

And that's why you what was his reaction

00:07:24 --> 00:07:26

to this Bakri and to this patients?

00:07:27 --> 00:07:29

He did not whether whether,

00:07:29 --> 00:07:30

you know,

00:07:30 --> 00:07:33

and Allah gave them the opportunity like he

00:07:33 --> 00:07:35

did with the. Later on, we'll talk about

00:07:35 --> 00:07:38

the the the that phase of Dua. But

00:07:38 --> 00:07:40

whether Allah gave him that opportunity to go

00:07:40 --> 00:07:44

and destroy them all or not. It doesn't

00:07:44 --> 00:07:45

matter because at the end of the day,

00:07:45 --> 00:07:46

he did not act on it.

00:07:47 --> 00:07:50

You know? So it was left as still

00:07:50 --> 00:07:51

what do you do when there is harm

00:07:51 --> 00:07:53

inflicted on you? It's patience.

00:07:54 --> 00:07:57

So Allah Ta'ala comforts him by saying,

00:08:03 --> 00:08:07

And other messengers before you were mocked and

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

were made fun of. You know?

00:08:09 --> 00:08:11

What to happen to them, to those people

00:08:11 --> 00:08:12

in the past?

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

Whatever they were making fun of actually caught

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

up with them. Meaning they said the punishment.

00:08:21 --> 00:08:23

Whether the punishment during their life or the

00:08:23 --> 00:08:26

punishment in the in the graves after they

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

died or whatever, however, Allah

00:08:28 --> 00:08:29

destroyed them.

00:08:31 --> 00:08:33

And now they did not, you know, look

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

at how what they they kept on

00:08:36 --> 00:08:37

they became coherent

00:08:38 --> 00:08:40

in trying to describe the Quran.

00:08:40 --> 00:08:42

They didn't really know what to say about

00:08:42 --> 00:08:44

the Quran. So

00:08:45 --> 00:08:46

they said, oh, this is just dreams.

00:08:47 --> 00:08:49

You know? So the fact that the prophet

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

can speak

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

the way he speaks the Quran,

00:08:54 --> 00:08:54

This

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

speech,

00:08:56 --> 00:08:58

Abhathu Ahlam, this just the the matters of

00:08:58 --> 00:09:01

a dream. Baliftarah, it's made up. Balu Hashar.

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

No. No. No. It's poetry.

00:09:03 --> 00:09:05

You know? He's a poet.

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

Or

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

when they

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

said,

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

are we going to leave our gods

00:09:14 --> 00:09:15

for a crazy poet?

00:09:16 --> 00:09:18

For a crazy poet, somebody who is the

00:09:18 --> 00:09:20

most insane of of, the most sane of

00:09:20 --> 00:09:21

all of

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

them, you know,

00:09:24 --> 00:09:25

to be described as

00:09:26 --> 00:09:26

insane

00:09:27 --> 00:09:27

and,

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

shayr even though the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa

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

sallam and this is just a matter of

00:09:33 --> 00:09:34

fact. He was not a poet.

00:09:35 --> 00:09:36

He had no poems.

00:09:37 --> 00:09:39

He had not not before the message of

00:09:39 --> 00:09:42

Islam, not after. He had no lines of

00:09:42 --> 00:09:44

poetry that were written or documented

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

that the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam made

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

up.

00:09:48 --> 00:09:50

The closest that he came to,

00:09:51 --> 00:09:53

you know, is what they say which the

00:09:53 --> 00:09:56

Arabs used to say that he would recite

00:09:56 --> 00:09:58

during weddings. You know,

00:10:01 --> 00:10:04

and that that, you know, just some rhyme

00:10:04 --> 00:10:06

that others used to to do, but that

00:10:06 --> 00:10:07

was not his own making anyway.

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

So Rasool Sallalahu alaihi wa sallam was never

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

a poet.

00:10:11 --> 00:10:13

He they all knew that he was not

00:10:13 --> 00:10:14

a poet,

00:10:14 --> 00:10:17

and still they would describe him as crazy

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

poet. You know?

00:10:23 --> 00:10:25

Or they said, okay. He's the poet, and

00:10:25 --> 00:10:27

we'll just wait for him until he dies.

00:10:27 --> 00:10:28

He's gonna die at some point. So just

00:10:28 --> 00:10:30

just wait it out. Wait him out.

00:10:33 --> 00:10:34

And they said this is this speech is

00:10:34 --> 00:10:38

nothing but fabricated speech, meaning not not from

00:10:38 --> 00:10:39

God. It is something that is,

00:10:41 --> 00:10:42

sorry.

00:10:42 --> 00:10:44

This somebody who is

00:10:45 --> 00:10:47

now you're saying that his speech is fabricated.

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

It is falsehood.

00:10:50 --> 00:10:52

And this is the person for most of

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

his life,

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

was called the truthful and the honest. From

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

truthful to honest to now, a fabricator of

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

speech.

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

You know?

00:11:02 --> 00:11:04

That would have to keep to to have

00:11:04 --> 00:11:05

an impact on the person.

00:11:09 --> 00:11:10

And Allah

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

often responded to them.

00:11:13 --> 00:11:15

And and when they when they when they

00:11:15 --> 00:11:17

said that, you know,

00:11:19 --> 00:11:20

then Allah

00:11:20 --> 00:11:21

says

00:11:22 --> 00:11:25

I am admonishing you. I am advising you

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

to do one thing.

00:11:28 --> 00:11:30

That you stand up for Allah Subhanahu Wa

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

Ta'ala, meaning to obey Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

00:11:35 --> 00:11:37

Do it 1 at a time, 2 at

00:11:37 --> 00:11:40

a time, cons consult each other, but, you

00:11:40 --> 00:11:40

know,

00:11:41 --> 00:11:42

didn't think.

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

There is no madness in your with with

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

with this man. I mean,

00:11:50 --> 00:11:51

madness

00:11:51 --> 00:11:53

is something that can be manifested, can can

00:11:53 --> 00:11:54

be shown.

00:11:54 --> 00:11:56

You can see a person who is insane,

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

you know, the way they behave. They are

00:11:59 --> 00:12:02

they are erratic. They are incoherent. They are,

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

you know

00:12:03 --> 00:12:05

where is the incoherence in the message of

00:12:05 --> 00:12:07

Islam? Where is the incoherence in the in

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

the in the behavior of the prophet himself?

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

And emphasizing

00:12:15 --> 00:12:17

and when as Allah says,

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

And this is very interesting because they're saying

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

that,

00:12:29 --> 00:12:30

Allah described them.

00:12:33 --> 00:12:35

They're looking at you so sharp as if

00:12:35 --> 00:12:38

they are going through you. You know? When

00:12:39 --> 00:12:41

they hear the remembrance, meaning when they hear

00:12:41 --> 00:12:42

the Quran,

00:12:44 --> 00:12:44

and they say

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

that he is a madman, he's crazy.

00:12:48 --> 00:12:50

And Allah ta'ala look at this, Despite the

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

position that the prophet

00:12:52 --> 00:12:54

says is in,

00:12:54 --> 00:12:56

people are calling you crazy, people are calling

00:12:56 --> 00:12:59

you insane, people are calling you mad, people

00:12:59 --> 00:13:02

are calling you fabricator, etcetera. And he says

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

from that

00:13:06 --> 00:13:09

point, he's talking about that this remembrance is

00:13:09 --> 00:13:10

for all mankind.

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

Meaning,

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

he did not even

00:13:14 --> 00:13:16

restrict himself to Quraysh

00:13:16 --> 00:13:19

or to Makkah or to the Arabs or,

00:13:19 --> 00:13:20

you know,

00:13:21 --> 00:13:23

no. The message from day 1,

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

from those the early stages

00:13:26 --> 00:13:28

telling them that this message is for mankind.

00:13:28 --> 00:13:29

This is not, you know

00:13:30 --> 00:13:31

and,

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

the the big gap,

00:13:33 --> 00:13:35

And when you say it, a person whom

00:13:35 --> 00:13:36

his companions are being,

00:13:37 --> 00:13:39

you know, tortured, punished,

00:13:39 --> 00:13:41

he's being, you know, the

00:13:42 --> 00:13:44

all of the machinery who's working against him,

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

he's against the society,

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

you know, and then he's still saying

00:13:49 --> 00:13:51

and this is a remembrance to mankind.

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

That shows that Rasool salarahu alaihi wa sallam

00:13:54 --> 00:13:57

made the message of Islam the source of

00:13:57 --> 00:14:00

his view and the source of his direction,

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

not

00:14:01 --> 00:14:04

the reality as seen by the human being.

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

Meaning the human being comes and says,

00:14:06 --> 00:14:09

man, you're alone. How many people believe in

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

you? You know, look at what they're piling

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

up against you. You are they're calling you

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

even crazy. They are, you know, they are

00:14:15 --> 00:14:16

they look what they did to Bilal or

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

they did to Khabab, and we'll talk about

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

them in more,

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

in in next week. But

00:14:23 --> 00:14:24

that's the human mind.

00:14:25 --> 00:14:27

The human mind works within

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

the around them. What, you know, what is

00:14:30 --> 00:14:33

possible, what I can do, and often

00:14:34 --> 00:14:35

succumbs or or or,

00:14:36 --> 00:14:39

gives in to what he sees or what

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

the the person sees as this is what

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

I can do. I cannot do more.

00:14:43 --> 00:14:45

The one who puts the deen,

00:14:45 --> 00:14:48

puts the iman as the foundation

00:14:48 --> 00:14:51

goes beyond that, becomes guided by the message,

00:14:51 --> 00:14:54

not by what is quote unquote allowed in

00:14:54 --> 00:14:56

the society, what's not allowed in the society.

00:14:56 --> 00:14:58

And that is that is when we say

00:14:59 --> 00:15:01

I mean, despite all of that, the prophet

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

insisting

00:15:03 --> 00:15:05

this message is for mankind.

00:15:08 --> 00:15:11

So, I mean, there are many ayats, by

00:15:11 --> 00:15:13

the way, talking about the same thing and

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

the responses.

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

Now,

00:15:16 --> 00:15:19

you know, Al Bukhari reported that Abu Jahl

00:15:20 --> 00:15:23

came mocking the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.

00:15:23 --> 00:15:24

And what did Abu Jahl said?

00:15:25 --> 00:15:26

Say, Abu Jahl said, Allah

00:15:32 --> 00:15:33

Oh, Allah. Remember,

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

the the Arabs were idol worshipers. They were

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

not,

00:15:37 --> 00:15:39

atheists. So they believed in Allah. They believed

00:15:39 --> 00:15:40

in God.

00:15:41 --> 00:15:43

So they say he said Abu Jahl. He

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

said, oh, Allah,

00:15:44 --> 00:15:47

if this were the truth from you,

00:15:47 --> 00:15:50

you know, let stones be rained upon us

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

from the sky or rush us with a

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

severe punishment.

00:15:54 --> 00:15:56

You know, if this is

00:15:57 --> 00:15:58

true, we need you know, and Allah

00:15:59 --> 00:16:00

revealed the Ayat,

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

you know, I I

00:16:02 --> 00:16:05

really repeating what Abu Jahl said verbatim.

00:16:05 --> 00:16:07

And after that, he says,

00:16:12 --> 00:16:13

And and Allah Ta'ala

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

is not going to punish them while you

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

are amongst them, while the prophet is amongst

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

them. And Allah Ta'ala will not punish them

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

while they ask for forgiveness.

00:16:26 --> 00:16:26

They,

00:16:28 --> 00:16:30

made fun of the prophet saying

00:16:30 --> 00:16:33

that you're only a human being. You know,

00:16:33 --> 00:16:35

when he say when so what they said,

00:16:39 --> 00:16:41

How come that this messenger look at the

00:16:41 --> 00:16:42

way they it's presented.

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

This messenger,

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

you know,

00:16:46 --> 00:16:47

who claims he's a messenger.

00:16:48 --> 00:16:50

He eats food, meaning like us.

00:16:51 --> 00:16:53

And he works in the markets just like

00:16:53 --> 00:16:53

us.

00:16:57 --> 00:16:59

Why why didn't he have an angel on

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

his side so he would be warning the

00:17:01 --> 00:17:03

people as, alongside them?

00:17:07 --> 00:17:09

Or Allah Ta'ala would would give him a

00:17:09 --> 00:17:10

a treasure

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

or he would be given a garden.

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

That he would eat from that garden.

00:17:20 --> 00:17:23

And the mean the unjust people, the unfair

00:17:23 --> 00:17:25

people said that you are following a man

00:17:25 --> 00:17:27

who is bewitched, who is under a magic

00:17:27 --> 00:17:30

spell. So now he's not a magician, he's

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

not a magician,

00:17:31 --> 00:17:33

he's under a magic spell.

00:17:34 --> 00:17:36

Okay. Make up your mind which one is

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

he? Is he a poet? Is he crazy?

00:17:38 --> 00:17:41

Is he a magician? Is he under a

00:17:41 --> 00:17:43

magic spell? It everything goes.

00:17:48 --> 00:17:52

And Allah ta'ala continues with the See how

00:17:52 --> 00:17:54

Allah ta'ala how they gave you the examples

00:17:54 --> 00:17:55

that the the issues that they're raising.

00:17:56 --> 00:17:59

So they went astray, and they cannot find

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

their the straight

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

path for them.

00:18:03 --> 00:18:04

It became as a it got to a

00:18:04 --> 00:18:07

point where it became, you know, things that

00:18:07 --> 00:18:07

are,

00:18:08 --> 00:18:09

absolutely ridiculous.

00:18:09 --> 00:18:12

Look what Allah ta'ala documents. Remember we said

00:18:12 --> 00:18:13

the best source of the Sira is in

00:18:13 --> 00:18:14

the Quran Kareem.

00:18:15 --> 00:18:16

Allah

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

documents what they said in Surah Al Isra.

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

They said,

00:18:23 --> 00:18:25

We are not going to become believers until

00:18:25 --> 00:18:26

you bring a,

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

a spring from the ground.

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

Or that you will have a garden

00:18:37 --> 00:18:39

made of palm trees and grapes,

00:18:39 --> 00:18:42

and you the the water will be gushing

00:18:42 --> 00:18:43

out from them, you know,

00:18:44 --> 00:18:46

from the the from the garden.

00:18:50 --> 00:18:52

Or let the sky fall upon upon us

00:18:52 --> 00:18:53

in pieces.

00:18:54 --> 00:18:56

Okay. Meaning the sky is gonna crumble. We

00:18:56 --> 00:18:58

want you to crumble the sky and let

00:18:58 --> 00:18:59

it fall on us in pieces.

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

Or you bring Allah himself.

00:19:06 --> 00:19:07

Allah even Allah

00:19:08 --> 00:19:10

is not enough. You bring the angels as

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

well.

00:19:12 --> 00:19:12

With him.

00:19:13 --> 00:19:14

With Allah bring the angels.

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

Or that you have a a house made

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

of gold.

00:19:21 --> 00:19:23

You have a house made of gold.

00:19:24 --> 00:19:26

Or that we see you ascend in the

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

heavens.

00:19:30 --> 00:19:32

Then. But even if you ascend to the

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

heavens,

00:19:33 --> 00:19:34

we're not gonna believe

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

until you we're not gonna believe that you

00:19:39 --> 00:19:41

actually went up until you bring us back

00:19:41 --> 00:19:43

a book that we can read. They could

00:19:43 --> 00:19:44

not read. They're only ill.

00:19:45 --> 00:19:46

There are people who are

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

unlettered.

00:19:48 --> 00:19:50

You know? They're saying bring us a book

00:19:50 --> 00:19:52

from the heavens for read it. And what

00:19:52 --> 00:19:55

was the response? Subhan'a rabbih. Allah tells them,

00:19:55 --> 00:19:57

say, praise be my Lord.

00:19:58 --> 00:20:00

Am I only am I nothing am I

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

anything but

00:20:02 --> 00:20:03

a human messenger?

00:20:04 --> 00:20:06

He's a human being and he's a messenger

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

and all of this nonsense that they're listed

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

we want this, we want this, we want

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

that,

00:20:11 --> 00:20:12

You know?

00:20:14 --> 00:20:15

He brought them the Quran.

00:20:15 --> 00:20:17

He brought them a proof to show that

00:20:17 --> 00:20:19

he's a messenger. Why don't you think of

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

that? Why why do you need the mess

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

a book to to come back? Why do

00:20:22 --> 00:20:24

you need to see Allah ta'ala? You believe

00:20:24 --> 00:20:24

in him anyway.

00:20:25 --> 00:20:27

The problem is not with Allah. The problem

00:20:27 --> 00:20:28

is not with the angels because they believed

00:20:28 --> 00:20:30

in the angels, but they said that they're

00:20:30 --> 00:20:32

females, but they believed in the angels.

00:20:33 --> 00:20:34

So

00:20:34 --> 00:20:36

why do you need all of this? What

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

you need is to examine what the person

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

what this man is bringing.

00:20:40 --> 00:20:42

But all of this is

00:20:42 --> 00:20:44

just to stir,

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

just empty challenges or or things just to

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

to,

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

to be argumentative.

00:20:52 --> 00:20:53

Now, of course, another

00:20:54 --> 00:20:56

thing that they started, by the way, is

00:20:56 --> 00:20:57

to start spreading news,

00:20:57 --> 00:21:00

start spreading falsehoods about the the prophet sallallahu

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

alaihi wa sallam. Okay. And about the Quran,

00:21:04 --> 00:21:05

about his personality.

00:21:06 --> 00:21:06

So

00:21:07 --> 00:21:09

all of that so that they would prevent

00:21:09 --> 00:21:11

the people from actually listening to what the

00:21:11 --> 00:21:12

man was saying.

00:21:12 --> 00:21:14

You know? So they started saying about the

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

Quran.

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

That these are the, the legends of the

00:21:22 --> 00:21:23

past.

00:21:23 --> 00:21:26

Okay. Meaning that he he brings legends. Other

00:21:26 --> 00:21:28

people bring other legends, meaning there's nothing special

00:21:28 --> 00:21:31

here. So this is, these are the legends

00:21:31 --> 00:21:32

of the the

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

predecessors.

00:21:36 --> 00:21:37

He had them written for him,

00:21:39 --> 00:21:40

and then they are being given to him

00:21:40 --> 00:21:42

in the morning and at night.

00:21:43 --> 00:21:44

And what did they say?

00:21:48 --> 00:21:50

This is nothing but fabrications

00:21:50 --> 00:21:52

and lies which he made up, and he

00:21:52 --> 00:21:55

was assisted with others for it.

00:21:56 --> 00:21:57

Then they said

00:21:58 --> 00:22:02

they said actually, again, the the the discrepancies

00:22:02 --> 00:22:03

and the conflicts in what they are

00:22:04 --> 00:22:06

they they they have an incoherent message in

00:22:06 --> 00:22:08

how to deal with the prophet sallallahu alaihi

00:22:08 --> 00:22:08

wasallam.

00:22:09 --> 00:22:11

So finally, they said, okay, he's being taught

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

by

00:22:12 --> 00:22:13

by a human being.

00:22:14 --> 00:22:16

The human being was actually a Roman boy,

00:22:16 --> 00:22:17

a Christian boy

00:22:17 --> 00:22:19

who was a blacksmith.

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

And Allah Ta'ala is in response to them,

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

he said because he's teaching them. So the

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

Quran is coming from them.

00:22:30 --> 00:22:32

The this is the per that the person

00:22:32 --> 00:22:34

could not speak Arabic. When you talk about

00:22:34 --> 00:22:35

inconsistent, incoherent

00:22:35 --> 00:22:36

response,

00:22:37 --> 00:22:39

the person could not speak Arabic properly.

00:22:40 --> 00:22:42

So they say Allah is saying the the

00:22:42 --> 00:22:44

language of the person they're referring to is

00:22:44 --> 00:22:46

Ajami, non Arabic.

00:22:46 --> 00:22:49

You know? It's it's not Arabic. But this

00:22:50 --> 00:22:51

Quran,

00:22:52 --> 00:22:54

this is a clear Arabic tongue, a clear

00:22:54 --> 00:22:55

Arabic language.

00:23:00 --> 00:23:02

And, of course, the Quran, al Kareem, would

00:23:02 --> 00:23:04

comfort him all the time. You know? And,

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

you know, and that's one of the hikam,

00:23:07 --> 00:23:08

one of the wisdoms

00:23:09 --> 00:23:12

why the Quran was revealed over 23 years.

00:23:12 --> 00:23:15

It accompanied the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam

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

in all of his journey. And that's why

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

anybody who needs to carry the Quran or

00:23:19 --> 00:23:21

to carry the the dawah of Islam,

00:23:22 --> 00:23:24

to communicate with with the people about Islam,

00:23:26 --> 00:23:27

The the Quran

00:23:27 --> 00:23:30

is should cannot be separable from him

00:23:31 --> 00:23:34

because the Quran, even though it's comforting Rasool

00:23:34 --> 00:23:36

salaam, it comforts the believers

00:23:36 --> 00:23:39

and the person you will see many things

00:23:39 --> 00:23:42

and the Quran is always should always be

00:23:42 --> 00:23:44

in the company of anybody who carries the

00:23:44 --> 00:23:45

dua.

00:23:46 --> 00:23:47

Just look what Allah says.

00:23:50 --> 00:23:52

Other messengers were called liars like you, so

00:23:52 --> 00:23:55

you're you're not different in that aspect.

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

Other messengers were called liars before you.

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

And they exercised patience. They showed patience

00:24:03 --> 00:24:04

when they were called liars.

00:24:05 --> 00:24:06

And they were harmed.

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

They were harmed.

00:24:09 --> 00:24:11

Until our victory came to them.

00:24:11 --> 00:24:13

And look at the the Arabic language, by

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

the way. When he says he did not

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

say

00:24:17 --> 00:24:20

You know, example, until victory came. He said

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

and he did not say

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

that until my victory

00:24:26 --> 00:24:30

came. He said until our victory came. The

00:24:30 --> 00:24:32

he's speaking in what they call the

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

majesty, the nun of the majesty.

00:24:35 --> 00:24:38

That you're not Allah Ta'ala. Yes. He's alone.

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

But at the same time, in his majesty,

00:24:41 --> 00:24:44

the victory, our victory is coming to to

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

you.

00:24:47 --> 00:24:49

Look at how comforting it is. This is

00:24:49 --> 00:24:51

the the the wisdom of Allah Ta'ala, the

00:24:51 --> 00:24:52

the sunnah of Allah Ta'ala,

00:24:53 --> 00:24:56

and the the the victory of Allah Ta'ala

00:24:56 --> 00:24:57

is set.

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

You know?

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

And you have the news from the previous

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

messengers,

00:25:03 --> 00:25:04

and that's what you find the ayat in

00:25:04 --> 00:25:07

Mecca. Many ayat referring to the messengers, to

00:25:07 --> 00:25:08

the previous messengers

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

and how they were, you know,

00:25:12 --> 00:25:13

you know, some of them were,

00:25:14 --> 00:25:15

you know, they're mistreated and some of them

00:25:15 --> 00:25:17

were killed and some of them were abused

00:25:17 --> 00:25:19

and, you know, etcetera etcetera. So,

00:25:20 --> 00:25:21

Allah comforts

00:25:22 --> 00:25:23

them with that.

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

So now they had,

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

a season of Hajj was coming, and this

00:25:30 --> 00:25:32

was actually in the early stages of the

00:25:33 --> 00:25:34

of the public dawah.

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

So the season of Hajj came, and they

00:25:38 --> 00:25:41

said that we wanted to have a coherent

00:25:41 --> 00:25:42

message

00:25:42 --> 00:25:44

to the people because Rasool Salam

00:25:45 --> 00:25:46

now is calling for Islam,

00:25:47 --> 00:25:50

and the Hajj season comes because, remember, the

00:25:50 --> 00:25:52

Hajj actually was a ritual from the time

00:25:52 --> 00:25:54

of Ibrahim alaihi sallam. And then it changed.

00:25:54 --> 00:25:57

What Abu Shirkin knew, the the idol worshipers,

00:25:57 --> 00:25:59

they changed aspects of it. You know? But

00:25:59 --> 00:26:01

still in in the as a concept of

00:26:01 --> 00:26:04

Hajj, go into a Kaaba and doing the

00:26:04 --> 00:26:06

and all of that, you know, that was

00:26:06 --> 00:26:08

actually that existed before Islam.

00:26:09 --> 00:26:11

And, of course, just as a side note

00:26:11 --> 00:26:12

again,

00:26:12 --> 00:26:15

anything that existed before Islam, and the Rasool

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

salallahu alaihi wa sallam approved

00:26:18 --> 00:26:20

by either verbally

00:26:20 --> 00:26:23

or seeing it being practiced and remaining quiet,

00:26:24 --> 00:26:27

you know, automatically becomes part of the sharia.

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

And for example, contracts,

00:26:29 --> 00:26:32

how you buy, sell, what you buy, sell,

00:26:33 --> 00:26:34

The the the the silence of the Prophet

00:26:35 --> 00:26:37

on some of the transactions from Jahiliyyah,

00:26:38 --> 00:26:39

actually that's how they became

00:26:40 --> 00:26:42

Islamic. That's how they became Islamic contracts.

00:26:42 --> 00:26:43

Because the Prophet

00:26:44 --> 00:26:46

by definition, he would never be quiet,

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

you know,

00:26:48 --> 00:26:50

when there is a need to be to

00:26:50 --> 00:26:50

speak.

00:26:50 --> 00:26:53

So if the if Allah forbid such an

00:26:53 --> 00:26:54

action, for example,

00:26:54 --> 00:26:55

Riba

00:26:56 --> 00:26:58

Riba Usury is made haram. So

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

Rasoolullah Sallam says the, you know, all try

00:27:02 --> 00:27:06

all usury, all riba is under my foot.

00:27:07 --> 00:27:09

That was his expression. It's under my foot.

00:27:09 --> 00:27:11

It's an Arab expression meaning that it's null

00:27:11 --> 00:27:14

and void. And the first is the Riba

00:27:14 --> 00:27:16

of Rebbas, his uncle.

00:27:16 --> 00:27:18

In the first Riba is the Riba of

00:27:18 --> 00:27:21

Rebbas. So when if there are a transaction

00:27:21 --> 00:27:23

that's haram, he's gonna stop it. A practice,

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

for example, in Hajj,

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

some women used to do Tawaf naked

00:27:29 --> 00:27:31

around the around the Kaaba that was in

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

the Jahiliyyah.

00:27:32 --> 00:27:33

You know? And,

00:27:34 --> 00:27:37

Rasul SAWSOLAM, of course, forbade that. So things

00:27:37 --> 00:27:38

that are,

00:27:39 --> 00:27:41

the the the the fact that the Rasul

00:27:41 --> 00:27:43

Salam remains quiet, it means that they are

00:27:43 --> 00:27:46

approved. So the Hajj the people who are,

00:27:46 --> 00:27:49

Quraish is preparing for the season. People are

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

coming from for Hajj.

00:27:51 --> 00:27:53

What are we going to tell

00:27:54 --> 00:27:55

the the people about

00:27:56 --> 00:27:59

Muhammad alaihis salatu wasalam. So Waleed bin Mughira

00:27:59 --> 00:28:00

is one of the leaders of Quraish.

00:28:01 --> 00:28:03

He is the one who initiated the discussion.

00:28:03 --> 00:28:06

He said, you know, the people are coming,

00:28:06 --> 00:28:08

so we need to do to say something

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

unified

00:28:12 --> 00:28:15

meaning have a unified opinion, a unified statement.

00:28:15 --> 00:28:17

It's a political statement you have to issue.

00:28:18 --> 00:28:19

You have to to to get it out.

00:28:20 --> 00:28:21

It has to be one statement.

00:28:22 --> 00:28:23

And what he says,

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

you know, and do not disagree with each

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

other. Do not have different statements where you

00:28:31 --> 00:28:33

start actually calling each other liars.

00:28:34 --> 00:28:35

Meaning what? We all know,

00:28:36 --> 00:28:38

you know, we all know that we are

00:28:38 --> 00:28:39

making up a lie. But we have to

00:28:39 --> 00:28:41

be consistent when we lie. We cannot you

00:28:41 --> 00:28:43

know, you lie this way, I lie that

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

way. We have to be consistent with the

00:28:44 --> 00:28:47

lie. And that's really exactly what he said

00:28:47 --> 00:28:49

and what he did as well.

00:28:49 --> 00:28:51

You know? So what did they they said,

00:28:51 --> 00:28:52

okay.

00:28:53 --> 00:28:53

So

00:28:55 --> 00:28:57

tell us what to say. You know, they

00:28:57 --> 00:28:57

told them.

00:28:59 --> 00:29:01

They said, no. You go ahead to the

00:29:01 --> 00:29:02

saying.

00:29:02 --> 00:29:04

You say it. I will listen.

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

We

00:29:07 --> 00:29:08

will say that he's a priest.

00:29:09 --> 00:29:11

He's a monk, priest.

00:29:12 --> 00:29:12

He

00:29:13 --> 00:29:15

said, No. By Allah, he's not a priest.

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

You know?

00:29:19 --> 00:29:21

You know? That we see how the priest

00:29:21 --> 00:29:23

talk. You know? They mumble and they they

00:29:23 --> 00:29:25

whisper things and like that.

00:29:25 --> 00:29:26

They call

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

it The person who just say,

00:29:30 --> 00:29:32

you know? And you don't know what they're

00:29:32 --> 00:29:33

saying. You know?

00:29:34 --> 00:29:36

Saying and sometimes when they say it and

00:29:36 --> 00:29:38

they make things rhyme, he said, well, Assadrad,

00:29:38 --> 00:29:40

this is not the the speech of a

00:29:40 --> 00:29:43

a priest or a, you know, or nor

00:29:43 --> 00:29:45

is it a a rhyme of a priest.

00:29:46 --> 00:29:47

They said, okay.

00:29:47 --> 00:29:48

Nakul Majnun

00:29:48 --> 00:29:50

will say he's crazy

00:29:50 --> 00:29:52

because now it's the the official position.

00:29:53 --> 00:29:56

So Walid ibn Maghirah said no, Jabal Majnun,

00:29:56 --> 00:29:58

he's not crazy crazy, he's not mad.

00:30:00 --> 00:30:02

We know what what craziness is and we

00:30:02 --> 00:30:04

know the symptoms of craziness, madness,

00:30:04 --> 00:30:05

you know.

00:30:08 --> 00:30:11

It's not the way that crazy person, insane

00:30:11 --> 00:30:12

person acts.

00:30:13 --> 00:30:15

So they said, okay. We say Shahar,

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

you know, because there are different types of

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

Arabic poetry. He said, we know what poetry

00:30:33 --> 00:30:34

is,

00:30:35 --> 00:30:37

and this is not one of them. This

00:30:37 --> 00:30:38

is not poetry.

00:30:38 --> 00:30:41

They said, okay. We say a magician, Sahar.

00:30:42 --> 00:30:42

He said,

00:30:43 --> 00:30:44

And you know

00:30:45 --> 00:30:47

he said, do we know he's not a

00:30:47 --> 00:30:48

magician?

00:30:51 --> 00:30:53

We know what magicians do and how they,

00:30:53 --> 00:30:54

you know, one

00:30:57 --> 00:30:59

They they, you know, with the, one practice

00:30:59 --> 00:31:02

of Jahiliya and or amongst the the,

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

the the,

00:31:06 --> 00:31:07

magicians in the Jahiliya,

00:31:08 --> 00:31:10

or even after Islam,

00:31:10 --> 00:31:12

they used to take a string,

00:31:12 --> 00:31:14

you know, and they would

00:31:15 --> 00:31:17

tie a knot with a string and say

00:31:17 --> 00:31:19

things on it, and tie another knot and

00:31:19 --> 00:31:21

make things on it, and, you know, say

00:31:21 --> 00:31:23

things on it like that. So this is

00:31:23 --> 00:31:26

actually what what Surat Al Falak refers to.

00:31:26 --> 00:31:27

You know?

00:31:30 --> 00:31:33

The one who blows and whispers on the,

00:31:33 --> 00:31:34

the knots.

00:31:34 --> 00:31:36

So that was that was a practice that

00:31:36 --> 00:31:38

they used to do. So they said that,

00:31:38 --> 00:31:39

you know,

00:31:39 --> 00:31:41

this is not he this he said, this

00:31:41 --> 00:31:42

is not a

00:31:43 --> 00:31:44

he's not a magician.

00:31:45 --> 00:31:47

So he's they said, come on.

00:31:48 --> 00:31:50

What do you want us to say? Enough.

00:31:50 --> 00:31:52

You know? So he said,

00:31:53 --> 00:31:53

by

00:31:54 --> 00:31:55

Allah,

00:31:56 --> 00:31:58

that his speech has sweetness,

00:32:01 --> 00:32:02

and its roots

00:32:02 --> 00:32:04

are deeply rooted. You know? The the adak

00:32:04 --> 00:32:06

is like the palm tree that's very deeply

00:32:06 --> 00:32:07

rooted.

00:32:07 --> 00:32:08

Well, in

00:32:10 --> 00:32:12

the and the branches of it is full

00:32:12 --> 00:32:13

of fruit.

00:32:13 --> 00:32:16

Meaning, when you read the Quran, the Quran

00:32:16 --> 00:32:18

al Kareem is not only solid so that

00:32:18 --> 00:32:20

there are no errors. It's very well established

00:32:20 --> 00:32:23

language. It's very, you know, eloquent, etcetera. But

00:32:23 --> 00:32:25

even the meanings and what you get out

00:32:25 --> 00:32:27

of it is in abundance.

00:32:31 --> 00:32:33

And if you say anything,

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

what you're suggesting,

00:32:35 --> 00:32:37

whether he's a poet, he's a crazy, he's

00:32:37 --> 00:32:39

separating between men and, you know, and that

00:32:39 --> 00:32:40

man and his family and all of this,

00:32:41 --> 00:32:43

they will know that you are lying. It's

00:32:43 --> 00:32:43

falsehood.

00:32:47 --> 00:32:48

And the closest

00:32:49 --> 00:32:51

that you can say, he's a magician. Why?

00:32:51 --> 00:32:53

He bewitches people's minds.

00:32:54 --> 00:32:56

How does he bewitch them? How does he,

00:32:56 --> 00:32:58

you know, because and we'll give a couple

00:32:58 --> 00:33:00

of examples inshallah before we close on.

00:33:01 --> 00:33:03

He recites the Quran Al Kareem and the

00:33:03 --> 00:33:04

people are mesmerized.

00:33:04 --> 00:33:07

A person who is now a kafir all

00:33:07 --> 00:33:08

his life and a disbeliever,

00:33:09 --> 00:33:11

etcetera, all of a sudden he says, I'm

00:33:11 --> 00:33:12

a Muslim. On the spot,

00:33:13 --> 00:33:14

he just

00:33:16 --> 00:33:17

the speech the speech

00:33:18 --> 00:33:20

is is like magic. The speech of a

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

Quran.

00:33:21 --> 00:33:22

You know?

00:33:26 --> 00:33:28

In another, by the way, in other

00:33:29 --> 00:33:30

in other reports, actually,

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

when they said, okay. Tell us what what

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

what you want us to say. He said,

00:33:34 --> 00:33:35

let me think.

00:33:37 --> 00:33:39

So he went home thinking,

00:33:40 --> 00:33:41

you know, how what am I going to

00:33:41 --> 00:33:44

say about Rasool SAW? And that's the sort

00:33:44 --> 00:33:47

of the first, I think, 16 ayah from

00:33:47 --> 00:33:49

or excuse me, from 11 to 16, about,

00:33:50 --> 00:33:53

5 ayahs were revealed about him. You know?

00:33:54 --> 00:33:55

He thought,

00:33:55 --> 00:33:56

estimated.

00:33:57 --> 00:33:59

Woe to him or death to him, how

00:33:59 --> 00:34:00

he estimated.

00:34:02 --> 00:34:03

Then woe to him how he estimated.

00:34:05 --> 00:34:06

Then he thought.

00:34:08 --> 00:34:10

Then he frowned. And then he, you know,

00:34:10 --> 00:34:12

he describes even the movements that the man,

00:34:12 --> 00:34:13

was

00:34:14 --> 00:34:15

was was doing.

00:34:17 --> 00:34:18

Then he turned

00:34:19 --> 00:34:21

and became arrogant. He

00:34:21 --> 00:34:23

put himself upon above the truth.

00:34:25 --> 00:34:27

He said this is nothing but magic.

00:34:27 --> 00:34:28

You know?

00:34:30 --> 00:34:31

This is nothing but speech of a human

00:34:31 --> 00:34:32

being.

00:34:32 --> 00:34:35

So anyway, they they decided on that.

00:34:35 --> 00:34:37

They decided on that decision that this is

00:34:37 --> 00:34:39

what we're gonna tell the people, he's a

00:34:39 --> 00:34:39

magician.

00:34:40 --> 00:34:42

So now everybody who's coming to the season

00:34:42 --> 00:34:43

of Al Hajj,

00:34:44 --> 00:34:45

you know, they would do what?

00:34:45 --> 00:34:47

They as soon as they arrive,

00:34:48 --> 00:34:48

Quraish,

00:34:49 --> 00:34:52

the leaders of Quraish would take them. They

00:34:52 --> 00:34:53

go to their where

00:34:53 --> 00:34:55

where they land. They they used to come

00:34:55 --> 00:34:57

and pick different spots

00:34:57 --> 00:34:59

and you know, where they they bring their

00:34:59 --> 00:35:00

camels and their, you know, their,

00:35:01 --> 00:35:02

stuff

00:35:02 --> 00:35:05

for Hajj. So they started going to them,

00:35:05 --> 00:35:07

and nobody would pass by without them selling

00:35:07 --> 00:35:10

them telling them what to be careful of

00:35:10 --> 00:35:12

the prophet. And the leader of that

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

campaign

00:35:14 --> 00:35:15

was Abu Lahab.

00:35:16 --> 00:35:18

The leader of that campaign was his uncle,

00:35:19 --> 00:35:21

and both of his children, by the way,

00:35:21 --> 00:35:23

as if you remember, we mentioned this. Both

00:35:23 --> 00:35:24

of his children,

00:35:24 --> 00:35:27

Otba and Utayba, were married to the daughters

00:35:27 --> 00:35:28

of Rasulullah SAW.

00:35:29 --> 00:35:31

He's a so not only his uncle,

00:35:31 --> 00:35:32

but also

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

in laws,

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

you know, and he was the one who

00:35:35 --> 00:35:36

was leading.

00:35:36 --> 00:35:37

And just,

00:35:37 --> 00:35:39

by the way, Abu Lahab,

00:35:41 --> 00:35:43

unless I'm I'm mixing him and actually then

00:35:43 --> 00:35:45

let me confirm the the report because I

00:35:45 --> 00:35:47

might be mixing him with Abu Jahal. But

00:35:47 --> 00:35:50

Abu Lahab was walking after him in the

00:35:50 --> 00:35:51

in the markets,

00:35:51 --> 00:35:53

and he they would say,

00:35:55 --> 00:35:57

Do not follow him because he's somebody who

00:35:57 --> 00:35:58

left his the religion of his forefathers,

00:35:59 --> 00:36:00

and he's a liar.

00:36:00 --> 00:36:02

You know? And imagine that. In the other

00:36:02 --> 00:36:05

reports, there are other reports where he was

00:36:05 --> 00:36:07

actually also stoning his feet,

00:36:08 --> 00:36:10

walking around, grabbing, you know,

00:36:10 --> 00:36:12

stones and stoning his feet while he was

00:36:12 --> 00:36:13

walking,

00:36:13 --> 00:36:13

around.

00:36:15 --> 00:36:17

So and but what happened as a result?

00:36:18 --> 00:36:19

Actually,

00:36:19 --> 00:36:22

that added publicity to the prophet alaihis salam.

00:36:23 --> 00:36:24

It backfired

00:36:25 --> 00:36:26

because now

00:36:26 --> 00:36:29

he the prophet alaihis salam did not have

00:36:29 --> 00:36:31

to go to to every person who came

00:36:31 --> 00:36:33

in to for them to even hear that

00:36:33 --> 00:36:34

he's there.

00:36:35 --> 00:36:37

People other people were doing the campaigning for

00:36:37 --> 00:36:38

him.

00:36:38 --> 00:36:40

So they actually, in a way and that's

00:36:40 --> 00:36:42

why some people say there is no nothing

00:36:42 --> 00:36:43

called,

00:36:43 --> 00:36:46

you know, bad campaign or bad you know,

00:36:46 --> 00:36:48

there's a the campaign is always good campaign.

00:36:48 --> 00:36:51

It's always you know? Ali, I'll I'll example,

00:36:53 --> 00:36:56

the most the most confrontation that Islam received

00:36:56 --> 00:36:57

in the west in America

00:36:58 --> 00:36:59

was after 911.

00:36:59 --> 00:37:01

The most you know, I mean, they started

00:37:01 --> 00:37:03

talking about the terrorists next door and, I

00:37:03 --> 00:37:06

mean, really, they went all out. So what

00:37:06 --> 00:37:07

was the reaction,

00:37:07 --> 00:37:09

to to that to that campaign, which was

00:37:09 --> 00:37:11

not done by Muslims, was not it was

00:37:11 --> 00:37:12

done by non Muslims.

00:37:12 --> 00:37:15

What was the the reaction? The most

00:37:15 --> 00:37:18

so the the Quran was sold out in

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

the bookstores.

00:37:19 --> 00:37:20

There were no copies of the Quran

00:37:21 --> 00:37:22

In any I mean,

00:37:23 --> 00:37:25

now does there mean that does that mean

00:37:25 --> 00:37:27

that there is actually no negative consequences? Of

00:37:27 --> 00:37:28

course not.

00:37:28 --> 00:37:30

But but still,

00:37:30 --> 00:37:31

you know, actually,

00:37:32 --> 00:37:33

you listen to some of the stories about

00:37:33 --> 00:37:35

people who embraced Islam.

00:37:36 --> 00:37:39

It was the the interest became after 911

00:37:39 --> 00:37:42

and after the the, you know, the media

00:37:42 --> 00:37:43

campaign and

00:37:43 --> 00:37:46

the negative campaign against Islam and, you know,

00:37:47 --> 00:37:48

making it

00:37:49 --> 00:37:50

any,

00:37:51 --> 00:37:54

barbaric religion and backwards and violent and all

00:37:54 --> 00:37:56

the terrorists and all of that. And and,

00:37:56 --> 00:37:58

actually, in in many ways, it backfired.

00:38:06 --> 00:38:07

And they used to also, by the way

00:38:07 --> 00:38:09

and you look at the just, one of

00:38:09 --> 00:38:11

their their their campaign against the Rasool,

00:38:12 --> 00:38:14

you know, they would go to any person

00:38:14 --> 00:38:16

of of honor, of any of influence.

00:38:17 --> 00:38:19

You know, they would they would say, be

00:38:19 --> 00:38:22

careful. Don't there's there's this guy who's calling

00:38:22 --> 00:38:23

for this. He's a liar. Don't follow him,

00:38:23 --> 00:38:26

etcetera. And he's a he's a magician. He

00:38:26 --> 00:38:28

will bewitch you. One of them was Tufail

00:38:28 --> 00:38:30

bin Amr Dawsi. You know?

00:38:30 --> 00:38:33

Tufail ibn Amr, and he was a poet,

00:38:33 --> 00:38:35

and he was known to be a smart

00:38:35 --> 00:38:36

man. You know, people knew that he was

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

very smart, very intelligent, and

00:38:39 --> 00:38:41

he was a poet. So, you know, and

00:38:41 --> 00:38:43

he was the head of Kabir al Dawes,

00:38:43 --> 00:38:44

the the tribe of Dawes.

00:38:45 --> 00:38:47

He came to Makkah for Hajj.

00:38:47 --> 00:38:50

So the people before he even arrived,

00:38:50 --> 00:38:52

you know, they met him

00:38:52 --> 00:38:54

and greeted him and come for you know,

00:38:55 --> 00:38:56

honored him, etcetera.

00:38:56 --> 00:38:57

And they said,

00:38:58 --> 00:39:00

yeah. You came to our land. You came

00:39:00 --> 00:39:01

to our country.

00:39:04 --> 00:39:06

And this man who's amongst

00:39:06 --> 00:39:08

us, you know, he's giving us problems. We

00:39:08 --> 00:39:09

don't know what to do with him. He

00:39:09 --> 00:39:10

divided our

00:39:11 --> 00:39:12

our group,

00:39:13 --> 00:39:14

and he dispersed us.

00:39:15 --> 00:39:16

And his his speech

00:39:18 --> 00:39:20

His speech is like magic,

00:39:20 --> 00:39:23

you know. He separates between the man and

00:39:23 --> 00:39:23

his father

00:39:24 --> 00:39:26

because if the father, let's say, is a

00:39:26 --> 00:39:28

mushrik, non Muslim,

00:39:28 --> 00:39:30

and that's a Muslim, that's it. You you

00:39:30 --> 00:39:32

join the Muslim camp, so to speak.

00:39:33 --> 00:39:35

It's it's not about severing

00:39:35 --> 00:39:36

ties,

00:39:36 --> 00:39:38

but they viewed

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

they viewed,

00:39:40 --> 00:39:43

you know, your support, your loyalty is with

00:39:43 --> 00:39:46

with your family always, and Islam does not

00:39:46 --> 00:39:48

put that. Islam does not break the family.

00:39:49 --> 00:39:51

You still have if your mother, your father,

00:39:51 --> 00:39:53

your daughter, your cousin, whatever, they're non Muslims,

00:39:53 --> 00:39:56

you still keep good relations, good family ties.

00:39:58 --> 00:40:02

And you you in any worldly affair, you

00:40:02 --> 00:40:03

take care of your mother, you take care

00:40:03 --> 00:40:05

of your father, etcetera. But at the end

00:40:05 --> 00:40:05

of the day,

00:40:06 --> 00:40:08

you know, you're doing that because you are

00:40:08 --> 00:40:10

a Muslim order to do that.

00:40:10 --> 00:40:12

You know? So it's not, you know, just

00:40:12 --> 00:40:13

because, you know,

00:40:14 --> 00:40:16

truth or falsehood, I'm gonna be with with

00:40:16 --> 00:40:18

my parents. No. You take care of your

00:40:18 --> 00:40:19

parents,

00:40:19 --> 00:40:21

but if they tell you to do something

00:40:21 --> 00:40:24

that against that's against Islam, you do not

00:40:24 --> 00:40:24

do that.

00:40:29 --> 00:40:31

If they strive you, if they pressure you

00:40:32 --> 00:40:35

to associate partners with me without knowledge,

00:40:35 --> 00:40:37

then do not obey them

00:40:37 --> 00:40:39

and be kind to them in the worldly

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

affairs.

00:40:41 --> 00:40:43

So, anyway, so they're saying he's separating between

00:40:43 --> 00:40:45

the between the man and his wife, etcetera.

00:40:45 --> 00:40:47

So do not talk to him, do not

00:40:47 --> 00:40:49

listen to him, be careful, you know, this

00:40:49 --> 00:40:51

man is it's like he's gonna, you know

00:40:51 --> 00:40:53

so Tufayl says for Allah

00:40:55 --> 00:40:55

That

00:40:57 --> 00:40:59

but they kept on pushing me until I

00:40:59 --> 00:41:00

I made up my mind. I'm not going

00:41:00 --> 00:41:02

to hear to hear him out. I'm not

00:41:02 --> 00:41:04

gonna listen to him. I'm not gonna talk

00:41:04 --> 00:41:04

to him,

00:41:05 --> 00:41:06

to the point where I put cotton in

00:41:06 --> 00:41:08

my ear in my ears. That I I

00:41:08 --> 00:41:10

don't wanna listen to him.

00:41:12 --> 00:41:13

But when he said,

00:41:14 --> 00:41:15

when I went to the Masjid,

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

you know,

00:41:22 --> 00:41:23

it it somehow

00:41:24 --> 00:41:26

I found them standing making salah near the

00:41:26 --> 00:41:28

Kaaba because the Rasulullah

00:41:28 --> 00:41:29

used to pray

00:41:30 --> 00:41:31

right in front of the people in the,

00:41:31 --> 00:41:33

in in, you know, in front of the

00:41:33 --> 00:41:33

Kaaba.

00:41:34 --> 00:41:36

So I went and I was I was,

00:41:36 --> 00:41:37

you know, got up and I was close

00:41:37 --> 00:41:38

to him.

00:41:39 --> 00:41:40

So Allah Ta'ala,

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

you know, like,

00:41:43 --> 00:41:44

decided or or

00:41:45 --> 00:41:47

had it written that I would hear some

00:41:47 --> 00:41:48

of what he said.

00:41:49 --> 00:41:50

You know?

00:41:54 --> 00:41:55

I heard good things.

00:41:56 --> 00:41:58

You know? That's the problem. He's got caught

00:41:58 --> 00:42:00

and he's got not listening, but he said,

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

I heard good things

00:42:02 --> 00:42:04

until he said and

00:42:04 --> 00:42:07

Rasulullah salallahu alaihi wasalam recited, you know, offer

00:42:08 --> 00:42:09

you know, presented Islam to him.

00:42:11 --> 00:42:13

Quran, you know, and recited the Quran. And

00:42:13 --> 00:42:15

what did the profile says?

00:42:23 --> 00:42:25

That I never heard anything that is better

00:42:26 --> 00:42:27

speech than the Quran.

00:42:29 --> 00:42:29

And,

00:42:30 --> 00:42:32

and nothing more just or fear than what

00:42:32 --> 00:42:33

this message

00:42:33 --> 00:42:35

came, so I became Muslim.

00:42:36 --> 00:42:36

The

00:42:37 --> 00:42:38

you know,

00:42:38 --> 00:42:39

the actually

00:42:39 --> 00:42:41

was a somebody who's to,

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

do spells to for people who are under

00:42:45 --> 00:42:46

magic.

00:42:47 --> 00:42:49

Okay? That was his job, and not I

00:42:49 --> 00:42:50

I I don't know, but he that was

00:42:50 --> 00:42:52

what he did in Jahadir. You

00:42:52 --> 00:42:55

know? Padima Makkah, he came to Makkah, and

00:42:55 --> 00:42:56

he heard from some of the people said

00:42:56 --> 00:42:58

that Muhammad is crazy,

00:42:58 --> 00:42:59

stay away from him.

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

So he said if I want, you know,

00:43:02 --> 00:43:03

he's crazy,

00:43:04 --> 00:43:05

maybe I can cure him.

00:43:06 --> 00:43:08

Maybe I can do something because, you know,

00:43:08 --> 00:43:10

I can do something to him that would

00:43:10 --> 00:43:12

cure him And Allah would cure him

00:43:12 --> 00:43:15

because of me. You know? So I went

00:43:15 --> 00:43:16

he said,

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

Falakhi.

00:43:18 --> 00:43:19

So he said,

00:43:19 --> 00:43:20

oh, Muhammad,

00:43:21 --> 00:43:23

I do the the, you know, the rukhiyah,

00:43:23 --> 00:43:25

the the, you know, the magic,

00:43:25 --> 00:43:28

spells and and the I help people like

00:43:28 --> 00:43:29

that. You know?

00:43:30 --> 00:43:32

Do you want me to do that to

00:43:32 --> 00:43:32

you?

00:43:33 --> 00:43:35

So what did the Rasulullah responded?

00:43:35 --> 00:43:36

He said,

00:43:50 --> 00:43:52

This is a speech the prophet

00:43:52 --> 00:43:54

still is about to start.

00:43:55 --> 00:43:56

All he said,

00:43:56 --> 00:43:58

he said that indeed

00:43:58 --> 00:44:00

all praise belongs to Allah. We thank him

00:44:00 --> 00:44:03

and we seek his help. Whomever Allah guides,

00:44:03 --> 00:44:04

nobody can take astray.

00:44:05 --> 00:44:08

And whomever Allah Ta'ala leads astray, nobody can

00:44:08 --> 00:44:10

guide him. And I bear witness that there's

00:44:10 --> 00:44:11

none worthy of worship but Allah.

00:44:12 --> 00:44:14

No. With no partners. And I bear witness

00:44:14 --> 00:44:17

that Muhammad is his messenger his slave and

00:44:17 --> 00:44:18

messenger.

00:44:19 --> 00:44:21

Now he's about to this is what they

00:44:21 --> 00:44:22

normally say as the introduction.

00:44:22 --> 00:44:24

He's about to speak.

00:44:25 --> 00:44:27

So he said, the Mahd said,

00:44:28 --> 00:44:31

You know, repeat, say it again.

00:44:31 --> 00:44:33

So Rasul sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said exactly

00:44:33 --> 00:44:35

what he said before a second time. He

00:44:35 --> 00:44:35

said,

00:44:36 --> 00:44:36

Ayd,

00:44:37 --> 00:44:38

3rd time, say it again.

00:44:39 --> 00:44:42

The prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam recited it

00:44:45 --> 00:44:46

when he recited, he said,

00:44:47 --> 00:44:48

you know,

00:44:49 --> 00:44:51

I heard the speech of priests, and I

00:44:51 --> 00:44:53

heard magicians, and I heard poets,

00:44:53 --> 00:44:56

but I have never heard words like these.

00:44:56 --> 00:44:58

You know? Give me your hand, and I

00:44:58 --> 00:44:59

will I will shake it so, you know,

00:44:59 --> 00:45:01

give you the the pledge of allegiance that

00:45:01 --> 00:45:03

I will become a Muslim, and he became

00:45:03 --> 00:45:04

Muslim on the spot.

00:45:04 --> 00:45:05

Again,

00:45:06 --> 00:45:07

and it the the,

00:45:09 --> 00:45:12

honestly, I this we we say this in.

00:45:13 --> 00:45:15

You know? Who does not say this?

00:45:15 --> 00:45:17

This is the intro. And but nobody thinks

00:45:17 --> 00:45:19

of it that it is such a, you

00:45:19 --> 00:45:20

know, mind blowing,

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

statement.

00:45:22 --> 00:45:24

But for somebody who understands

00:45:24 --> 00:45:27

the Arabic and understands the the the intricacies

00:45:28 --> 00:45:30

of the Arabic, the meaning, the structure, the

00:45:31 --> 00:45:31

the eloquence,

00:45:32 --> 00:45:34

all of this for them, this is something

00:45:34 --> 00:45:36

that's out of the world. I mean, for

00:45:36 --> 00:45:38

somebody says, just tell me, and all of

00:45:38 --> 00:45:39

a sudden, okay.

00:45:40 --> 00:45:40

I'm a Muslim.

00:45:42 --> 00:45:44

Like that? Yes. Like that.

00:45:44 --> 00:45:47

You know? And that's why the the, the

00:45:47 --> 00:45:49

major crime that was committed against Islam

00:45:50 --> 00:45:52

in the 20th century, and still, of course,

00:45:52 --> 00:45:54

the the the crime continues,

00:45:55 --> 00:45:55

is

00:45:56 --> 00:45:59

against the Arabic language and teaching the Muslims

00:45:59 --> 00:46:00

the Arabic language.

00:46:01 --> 00:46:03

Without the Arabic language, you will you and

00:46:03 --> 00:46:06

I will never appreciate the Quran in as

00:46:06 --> 00:46:07

it should be appreciated.

00:46:08 --> 00:46:10

Without the Arabic language, there is no Islamic

00:46:10 --> 00:46:12

knowledge. You'll always know what others said. You

00:46:12 --> 00:46:14

can never reach it yourself. You can never

00:46:14 --> 00:46:15

perform yourself.

00:46:16 --> 00:46:18

Because without the the Arabic language is a

00:46:18 --> 00:46:19

medium of communication.

00:46:20 --> 00:46:21

The power, the impact,

00:46:22 --> 00:46:24

yeah, of the Quran. When people when when

00:46:24 --> 00:46:25

Allah Ta'ala

00:46:25 --> 00:46:28

or when when Rasulullah would read assorted Tawba,

00:46:28 --> 00:46:30

you know, to to the people who are

00:46:30 --> 00:46:32

about to to to go to war. The

00:46:32 --> 00:46:35

impact of this of of this ayat

00:46:35 --> 00:46:38

is, you know, will transform you, but if

00:46:38 --> 00:46:40

you don't know what they mean, they just

00:46:40 --> 00:46:41

recite

00:46:41 --> 00:46:44

nicely like Abdul Samad, Adar Baha'i, Abdul Basel,

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

Abdul Samad or Hosahi or somebody like that.

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

But what they mean the impact,

00:46:49 --> 00:46:50

is not appreciated.

00:46:52 --> 00:46:54

Because of time, InshaAllah, we'll stop here

00:46:55 --> 00:46:58

and, we'll continue InshaAllah for another technique

00:46:58 --> 00:47:00

that they followed to try to,

00:47:01 --> 00:47:04

stop the message of Islam from spreading, InshaAllah,

00:47:04 --> 00:47:05

and that will be next week.
