SLURL Hungary low salatu salam ala Rasulillah while early also have

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

an even wider

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

span was Mohammed kulula Will hamdulillah Willa in Allahu Allahu

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

Akbar, what are Hola Hola, Quwata illa Billahi la de la de.

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

We ask Allah subhanaw taala to teach us from His knowledge, and

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

to lift us in levels and to accept our worship. I mean, it'll be

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

Alameen Shala just a few words, in a few minutes with Milazzo JAL.

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

There's no doubt that the first

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

lesson that a human being

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

ever learned

00:00:42 --> 00:00:47

was the lesson of how knowledge honors a person.

00:00:49 --> 00:00:54

And this is why in the first story in the Quran, and actually the

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

first story in the history of humanity,

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

the story of Adam Alayhis Salam,

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

Allah subhanaw taala created Adam Alayhis Salam, and then taught him

00:01:05 --> 00:01:11

knowledge. He gave him a knowledge that the angels did not know after

00:01:11 --> 00:01:16

which the angels were commanded to prostrate for him.

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

And this is why Allah subhanaw taala says in the Quran, your

00:01:21 --> 00:01:25

fellow Latina M annual income, while Adina Otto el mundo Rajat

00:01:25 --> 00:01:28

Allah lifts, those who believe and those who attain knowledge and

00:01:28 --> 00:01:34

levels and there's not a dua in the Quran, where Allah told the

00:01:34 --> 00:01:39

prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to increase him in anything

00:01:39 --> 00:01:42

except for knowledge. He said, we'll call Rob busy Danny Elma

00:01:42 --> 00:01:46

there is no Sydney anything except for him in the Quran.

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

But you know what Hadith baffled me

00:01:52 --> 00:01:54

the Hadith authentic hadith.

00:01:55 --> 00:01:59

So this these 10 is a Hadith of how Allah lifts

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

the people of knowledge is one thing.

00:02:03 --> 00:02:09

But the Hadith that baffled me was that hadith that said were the

00:02:09 --> 00:02:15

prophets I seldom said the first to burn in the Hellfire

00:02:16 --> 00:02:18

is going to be a scholar,

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

somebody of great knowledge.

00:02:24 --> 00:02:27

So we learned that knowledge can go all the way up.

00:02:29 --> 00:02:32

And knowledge can go all the way down. It's a two way road.

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

And subhanAllah when I

00:02:36 --> 00:02:40

thought about it, and I thought about the Syrah of the Prophet

00:02:40 --> 00:02:42

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and how

00:02:44 --> 00:02:49

are there examples of these types of scholars in the time of the

00:02:49 --> 00:02:52

Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam? Because sometimes when we

00:02:52 --> 00:02:56

think of scholar we think of after Rasul Allah is send them, but the

00:02:56 --> 00:03:00

reality is from the Sierra of the Prophet size, and we could find

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

examples of both types of scholars. And that's what I'm

00:03:04 --> 00:03:08

going to share with you today Inshallah, in a famous story, the

00:03:08 --> 00:03:12

story of what is often the story of what occurred No, no fun when

00:03:12 --> 00:03:17

the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he, first when when he

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

first experienced why from Jibreel, Allah is Salam, he went

00:03:20 --> 00:03:25

to Hadiya and Khadija called her cousin waka waka came and he was

00:03:25 --> 00:03:29

learned in Hebrew and he was learned in the Torah and then the

00:03:29 --> 00:03:34

Injeel. So he studied the previous scriptures. So when the Prophet

00:03:34 --> 00:03:37

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam explained to what aka what he

00:03:37 --> 00:03:41

experienced, he said, This is the angel that came down to Musa

00:03:43 --> 00:03:48

and you were chosen to be a prophet. And the Prophet SAW Selim

00:03:48 --> 00:03:53

said me a prophet. He said, Yes. And there's not a single person

00:03:53 --> 00:03:58

that came with what you are coming with, except that he was the enemy

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

of his people. He said, will they be my enemy as well? He said, Yes.

00:04:03 --> 00:04:09

And they will kick you out of your city. He said, our Mukherjee your

00:04:09 --> 00:04:12

home, will they kick me out as well? He said, Yes. So what

00:04:12 --> 00:04:16

occurred new, the Syrah of Rasool loss, I send them before Rasul

00:04:16 --> 00:04:20

Allah sai Sena. Isn't that interesting? And he's Rasul Allah.

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

He knew the biography. He knew what's going to happen to him

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

before he did Ali salatu salam.

00:04:26 --> 00:04:31

So this is what he said. Yeah, late and if he had other is, Raju

00:04:31 --> 00:04:36

is usually do Yeah, and I wish I will be young or I wish I was

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

young when they kick you out. But he was a very old man. As a matter

00:04:39 --> 00:04:44

of fact what aka died three days later. Okay. And then he died upon

00:04:44 --> 00:04:47

Islam Al Hamdulillah. But the Allahu Allah Allah Anwar Allah

00:04:50 --> 00:04:53

another example, this is the example of a righteous scholar,

00:04:53 --> 00:04:58

someone who use their knowledge to find the truth, his knowledge of

00:04:58 --> 00:04:59

the previous scripture.

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

guided him to knowing Rasool allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.

00:05:03 --> 00:05:08

That's one. Another example of this is Abdullah adna Salam, who

00:05:08 --> 00:05:12

was a Jew. In Medina when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa

00:05:12 --> 00:05:16

sallam did Hijra to Medina, Abdullah had been Salam was a

00:05:16 --> 00:05:22

scholar, the son of a scholar, amongst the Jews of Medina. And as

00:05:22 --> 00:05:26

soon as he heard about the Prophet SAW Salem, he used his knowledge

00:05:26 --> 00:05:30

of the scripture, and he went and inspected the prophecies and he

00:05:30 --> 00:05:33

asked the prophecies and he looked at the characteristics of him, and

00:05:33 --> 00:05:36

he found out that it is him. So he embraced the snuff

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

And subhanAllah the Abdullah

00:05:42 --> 00:05:46

was supposed to go back and give Dawa to his people to the Jews of

00:05:46 --> 00:05:50

Medina. But he said he also Allah my people are Coleman booked.

00:05:51 --> 00:05:54

Booked is exactly what it sounds like anatomy by the way, it's both

00:05:54 --> 00:05:59

that's that's how the Jews were in Medina meaning anytime like they

00:05:59 --> 00:06:04

they're quick to flip and they forget all of the past Yeah, and

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

they they they'll just bash on somebody for no reason. And

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

Abdullah Abdullah said, I'm new this so so so I sell them call the

00:06:10 --> 00:06:14

tribal leaders of the Jews and he told her not to hide in another

00:06:14 --> 00:06:18

room and he invited the Jews over and he told them look, what do you

00:06:18 --> 00:06:21

have to say about Abdullah? Agnes and he said oh, he's a scholar,

00:06:21 --> 00:06:25

son of our scholar. It's very learned very this very that They

00:06:25 --> 00:06:28

complimented him he said what if I told you Abdullah converted to

00:06:28 --> 00:06:31

Islam? He said no way my of Allah. How's he going to convert this

00:06:31 --> 00:06:31

now?

00:06:33 --> 00:06:35

They said, Abdullah come out. Abdullah came out and he said

00:06:35 --> 00:06:37

eyeshadow, Hola. Hola. Hola. Hola.

00:06:38 --> 00:06:44

So they said, they got up like stuffing Allah. And they got up

00:06:44 --> 00:06:49

and they said, you know, you never had knowledge to begin with. Even

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

your father. We used to doubt the amount of knowledge you had. You

00:06:52 --> 00:06:54

were never there. And they start they were common book. Exactly.

00:06:54 --> 00:06:56

Well, Abdullah, they got up and left and after loving and said,

00:06:56 --> 00:06:59

I'm told the premises of Seattle's will lie told you. So like, this

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

is how my people are.

00:07:02 --> 00:07:06

So Abdullah Salam is a second example of how knowledge can lead

00:07:06 --> 00:07:11

to the hook and to embracing it. But there's also examples in this

00:07:11 --> 00:07:15

era of knowledge not leading to the hook. And that's the example

00:07:15 --> 00:07:16

of how he even

00:07:18 --> 00:07:24

he was one of the leaders of the Jews in hybrid and Korea. He was

00:07:24 --> 00:07:29

the father of Sofia. Been to Korea a mini the Mother of the Believers

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

and all the Allah to Allah Anna.

00:07:32 --> 00:07:35

Sophia, but the Allah Anna she narrates she said I was a little

00:07:35 --> 00:07:40

girl. And I was really loved by my father and my uncle Eliezer.

00:07:41 --> 00:07:44

So our father and our uncle we acid, they used to really love

00:07:44 --> 00:07:48

her. So they allowed her to be around them. Like when they had

00:07:48 --> 00:07:51

private discussions and whatnot, they wouldn't allow anyone else.

00:07:51 --> 00:07:55

But Sofia was allowed. She said one day I heard my father go to

00:07:55 --> 00:08:01

Rasul Allah, so I seldom. And he went to inspect him and to see his

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

characteristics and to see if he fits the characteristics that were

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

mentioned in the Torah.

00:08:09 --> 00:08:12

And then he went back and she said, I heard the conversation

00:08:12 --> 00:08:16

between him and Abuja said my uncle, her father, Oh, yeah. He

00:08:16 --> 00:08:21

said to Abuja, sir, he said, I want and I saw Mohamed, we also

00:08:21 --> 00:08:25

said, so what did you see? Did he fit the description? Or you said,

00:08:25 --> 00:08:29

Yes, he fit the description. But he also said, okay, so what are we

00:08:29 --> 00:08:34

going to do? Oh, yeah, he said, the idea what, to whomever it I'll

00:08:34 --> 00:08:36

be his enemy until I die.

00:08:37 --> 00:08:41

I'll be his enemy until I die. It's probably see, although he

00:08:41 --> 00:08:46

knew that also seldom, and he knew his characteristics. But guess

00:08:46 --> 00:08:50

what? He continued to disbelieve, even until the siege of high bar,

00:08:50 --> 00:08:53

were the prophets. I seldom brought him and dragged him under

00:08:53 --> 00:08:57

his foot. And he told him Yeah, hey, look at what your disbelief

00:08:57 --> 00:09:01

brought you to. You're on the brink of death. And you're right

00:09:01 --> 00:09:05

here. What do you have to say? Or you said,

00:09:07 --> 00:09:11

Man had him to Allah either what he said, I never will regret being

00:09:11 --> 00:09:16

your enemy. Oh, Mohammed Subhan. Allah. He said, When I came to

00:09:16 --> 00:09:19

him, Al hammertone Kitab Hala, who Elena

00:09:20 --> 00:09:22

woman you highly below Helaba.

00:09:23 --> 00:09:24

And it is

00:09:25 --> 00:09:30

a slaughter that Allah wrote upon the sons of Israel upon them. And

00:09:30 --> 00:09:33

whoever fights Allah, Allah will defeat them. So it's as if he

00:09:33 --> 00:09:38

said, it was our destiny to be defeated and stomped on by you.

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

And he chose to be on the wrong side. This is very interesting

00:09:42 --> 00:09:46

actually. And this is very interesting. You see how the

00:09:46 --> 00:09:52

knowledge was used to misguide him, and to make him steadfast

00:09:52 --> 00:09:54

upon what, upon bottling upon falsehood.

00:09:56 --> 00:09:59

Another example is the example of selama Abdul Salam Al Ansari.

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

Did Allah and by the way, he's one of the 313, that Fortin better

00:10:04 --> 00:10:09

selama by the ALLAH and he said, I was a little kid, little boy, I

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

used to walk I used to be neighbors, of a neighbor to the

00:10:13 --> 00:10:17

Jews of Medina. And there was a scholar amongst the Jews that

00:10:17 --> 00:10:22

would talk about Jana Gnar. And he would talk about Yeoman herself

00:10:22 --> 00:10:24

Judgment Day. And he said,

00:10:26 --> 00:10:32

One day, I was sitting there, and I told this Jewish scholar after

00:10:32 --> 00:10:35

he told us about the hellfire and about paradise and judgment, He

00:10:35 --> 00:10:40

said in the fire will be so severe that the hottest furnace in this

00:10:40 --> 00:10:45

dunya is still nothing compared to what you'd wish you were in a

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

furnace from how hot the Hellfire is.

00:10:48 --> 00:10:51

So selama he was one of them, we should have came on. He wasn't he

00:10:51 --> 00:10:54

didn't believe in any of this. Right? And it was the Jews talking

00:10:54 --> 00:10:58

about it. And he was one of the the, you know, that we should?

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

He said, How do I know your true?

00:11:02 --> 00:11:05

He's telling the Jewish scholar, how do I know you're right? He

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

said there would be a prophet that will come from here, he pointed

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

south of Medina, which is towards Mecca and Yemen. He pointed south,

00:11:13 --> 00:11:19

he said there will come a profit from over there, and he will prove

00:11:19 --> 00:11:21

to you that

00:11:22 --> 00:11:27

we are correct. And he will bring victory to us and He will teach

00:11:27 --> 00:11:31

you and everyone will know that this is the truth. So when Salam I

00:11:31 --> 00:11:32

grew up,

00:11:34 --> 00:11:37

he followed Rasulullah sai Sallam he embraced Islam accepted Islam.

00:11:37 --> 00:11:38

But guess what?

00:11:39 --> 00:11:42

This Jewish scholar did not accept Islam.

00:11:43 --> 00:11:47

He remained the covenant Selim I went to him. He said, he said,

00:11:47 --> 00:11:51

Didn't you used to tell us about Janna not? Didn't you use to teach

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

us what Muhammad sai Sanam is teaching us now?

00:11:55 --> 00:11:59

Don't you know this? And didn't you describe him? The way he came

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

in the Torah and you pointed out where he's gonna come from? He

00:12:02 --> 00:12:03

said yes, but that's not him.

00:12:04 --> 00:12:05

That's not him.

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

So he gave two examples of scholars whose knowledge guided

00:12:11 --> 00:12:16

them to the truth and to examples of scholars whose knowledge guided

00:12:16 --> 00:12:21

them to falsehood brothers and sisters, we learn one thing, that

00:12:21 --> 00:12:24

knowledge alone is not enough to save someone.

00:12:25 --> 00:12:31

But it has to be accompanied with humbleness and willingness to

00:12:31 --> 00:12:33

accept the truth no matter who it comes from.

00:12:35 --> 00:12:41

Without this knowledge, will lead to the bottom it's not for our own

00:12:41 --> 00:12:45

or her man or caught on it's not Hitler or Stalin or whoever it is.

00:12:45 --> 00:12:49

That's going to be the first in the Hellfire it is going to be a

00:12:49 --> 00:12:54

scholar like that of Hawaii and that scholar who sent him I was

00:12:54 --> 00:12:55

talking about

00:12:57 --> 00:13:00

brothers, but what does this affect us as Muslim in

00:13:01 --> 00:13:04

the Rasul some Allahu alayhi wa sallam says of Allah, Allah said,

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

he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam prophesized so many things from

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

the signs of the hereafter. We know about the Mady and his

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

coming. We know about Missoula is Salah is Salam, we know about the

00:13:18 --> 00:13:21

gel, we know about the sun rising from the West, we know about the

00:13:21 --> 00:13:28

rising what the buildings that are going to be built by the Barefoot

00:13:28 --> 00:13:33

naked, you know, dependent people that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi

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

wa sallam described the shepherd's

00:13:36 --> 00:13:37

by you.

00:13:39 --> 00:13:42

There are two types of scholars the same types that existed

00:13:42 --> 00:13:46

amongst many extra eel amongst the Jews and the Christians. We have

00:13:46 --> 00:13:50

the same types amongst the OMA today. Just because someone knows

00:13:50 --> 00:13:53

of the coming of a silent Salam does not mean that they're going

00:13:53 --> 00:13:57

to know to follow him. And just because they know of the coming of

00:13:57 --> 00:14:01

the melody and his description and attribute does not mean that

00:14:01 --> 00:14:03

they're going to going to recognize him as the melody and

00:14:03 --> 00:14:04

follow him.

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

Just because they know the description of the judge does not

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

mean they're going to reject him. It's beyond this. It's the

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

humbleness, it's the submission. It's the willingness to accept the

00:14:18 --> 00:14:23

truth that we must live right now before these times come. Because

00:14:23 --> 00:14:26

if we don't have this as a guide, the knowledge will not benefit us.

00:14:26 --> 00:14:30

As a matter of fact, the knowledge can harm us because it can only

00:14:30 --> 00:14:35

make us go lower in the Hellfire with a biller. So we ask Allah not

00:14:35 --> 00:14:40

only knowledge, play knowledge, but we ask Allah for knowledge and

00:14:40 --> 00:14:45

willingness to follow it. Right knowledge that produces action and

00:14:45 --> 00:14:47

manifests in action

00:14:48 --> 00:14:52

and the willingness to accept the truth no matter where it is. We
