Lets it be busted be in whose hand does it be? He in Whose Hand is the minion that is great and Exalted is He whose kindness and generosity generosity encompass all things.

And he has told them that you will move on from it. He has issued commands and prohibitions to to them and tested them with desires that hinder them from complying with his commands. While were submitted to the Command of Allah and this is good deeds, Allah will give him a good living in
both realms, or whatever goes along with his whims and desires and turns away from the commander of Allah will have an evil reconnaissance.

So to him, all three of those will be wrong for short and commit sense, especially if they repent and friend to him. For them, He will forgive your sins, even if they reach up to the clouds of the sky. And he will conceal their faults even if there are so many as to fill the earth was created seven heavens one above the other, they are all on one level, he has created them in the most beautiful and precise manner, no defect we see in the creation of those gracious that is you will not see any flaws or faults in it. Once all imperfections are ruled out, there will only be
perfect beauty that is harmonious and all aspects in its color, shape and loftiness and all that it contains from and all that it contains of the sun, moon and heavenly bodies on stationary and moving because it's perfection is well known. Allah subhanaw taala instructs us to look at it repeatedly and reflect and reflect upon all its aspects as he says, Look again at your font reflect upon it, you see in for that is you see in shortcoming or defect, keep looking again and again. What is meant is looking often time and time again, your gaze will come back to you how old and weary having found our flaws and Allah's creation that is unable to see any defects or gaps even if one is extremely
keen to do so.
Okay, so So let's exactly
so let's we'll Mulk one of the is one of the greatest soldiers of the Quran. And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam actually advised that we read it every night.
And he said that reading it every night should be a means to protecting you from the punishment of the grief and double copper.
Okay, so it's actually important for every Muslim to learn salted milk, and read it every night.
Such a tremendous reward to be protected from edible cover the punishment of the grave, it's worth it. And you really if you if you get used to it, it won't take more than five, seven minutes from you, you will be done with it. So seven minutes every night, if you recite it with reflection on its meanings, and what it tells us about Allah subhana wa Santa, that's such a profound reward to be protected from the president punishment of the grave. And even though we totally broke the law when it was asked
to DeCaro indeco, Janet winnaar, Walla and alarming cache and what either do Carol combo bucket
that paradise and hellfire is mentioned are mentioned in front of you. And we don't see much like reaction from you. But when the grave is mentioned,
you seem to really change and be disturbed. If upon algebra, a woman as a real
thing cannot be run from our home, when can a short run from our who asked her. So he said the first station of the Hereafter of the next life is the grief. So if it's good, everything else will be good afterwards. But if it's tough, if it doesn't look good, then everything after it will be worse. So this is why it troubled him. So I'd have a fabulous such a great thing, such a huge thing and I had Asuna believe in other we'll cover that it is real. It is real and isn't the Hadith of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, it actually affects the body and the soul. It affects the body and the soul because once the soul is taken up, for the believer, the soul of the believer will go
through the heavens till the seventh heaven then Allah will say he Do you have any mean HELOC to home? If you have a home I mean how did you come to Allah? Allah would say send them back to the earth. I created them from it
and I returned them to it and they will be resurrected from it. The disbeliever the heavens will not open he will not be allowed in or she will not be allowed in so they will be thrown the soul will be thrown back to join their body
and
In that moment, there will be two angels that will come to question the person in Corona Q. And they will ask the person three questions, Mantra book. Maddie no matter what if he had that luxury lady will he come? Or maybe yoke? Who's your Lord? Who did you worship? Man, the inner core was your religion. And what do you say about the man who was sent amongst you or sent to you? Or who's your prophet? So the believer says, Allah be Allah Dini and Islam wanna be you Mohamed Salah Salem Amman to be so dope to be here. I'm into it.
The believer who say Allah is my Lord, I worshipped Allah. My religion is Islam. My deen is Islam. And Muhammad SAW Salam I believed in him and I accepted
the disbeliever that is asked my book, you say Ha, ha, ha, ha, Audrey. I don't know. The confused I don't know. And it's the deeds that answered the question. It's not like the person says, Okay, I heard the Muslim saying something so I can cheat. You can't cheat there. It's the state of your heart that you lived with in this life that will answer Who was your Lord? Confusion?
Nothing. I heard people saying something I just said something like them. And that's the reality of for most people disbelief because they follow what social trends whatever happens, whatever people say, whatever people believe in, they follow the majority.
That shows a serious thing with disbelief that this belief can never come from,
from conviction, true conviction. It must be a matter of blind following at some level or in some shape or form.
So our double color Allah subhanaw taala Anna promises by the prophet sauce on them at the tongue of the prophets, Allah Allah Salam that he would protect us from Cuba.
Looking for someone
Okay, the prophets of Allah sends them promise that those who recite
so little milk every night, then inshallah they will be protected from addabbo, the scholars say,
recited after selected Asia,
after selected Asia, some say after another, regardless, it's the night Okay, so again, it's okay. But before you sleep, just recite Surah Al Malik, and the title so little milk, Dominion, authority, power.
The Kingdom again, you can say this is more of a word of biblical word, right? The kingdom of God. It's true. It's true and it's quite expressive in English. It's the dominion of Allah subhanho wa taala. Everything belongs to Allah subhanaw taala. Allah has control and has ownership over everything. The whole shebang like a lady bat hammock, in his hand is all dominion is all controlled, everything belongs to him. Everything is he's the ultimate King.
Here the human coup Allah coalition guardian, he is able to do whatever he wants. He can do whatever he wants. There's no limits to the mind and the power of Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, Allah the halal motor will hire he created life and death, he created death and life, death and life He created them, they are the creation of Allah subhanho wa Taala and he causes death and he causes life.
So no one is going to die without the permission of Allah without the word of Allah subhanaw taala no one will die before their time, the time that is appointed by Allah subhanaw taala and the causes that you see around our only means in Hola Hola. Hola. She and her yes verb that when Allah writes something when Allah decrees something Allah brings about the causes that will make it a reality. We saw let's let's take this example to help us with this an important part of our faith.
And alcoholism man Muhammad was asked malapa dakara Luca Rudra Tula. What is Kadar, he said cada is The Quadra of Allah, the power the mind, the ability of ALLAH SubhanA wa Bucha. And
let's say a person gets in a run over by a car, a vehicle and dice. Again, in our very simple
way of thinking, we say the cause of death was the accident, right? The car running over this person.
This would be a very simple, it's not like untrue. It's true, but this is the immediate cause.
This is the immediate cause. Now the bigger picture where we put
all of the levels of causality in one frame.
The reality is
it's not the accident that caused the death
in the bigger picture. It's the death that caused the accident.
How's that? Allah decreed?
for this person to die at this moment
and for death, Allah subhanaw taala This is how he created this to his worlds. This is sunnah to Allah here in the Quran sunnah to Allah, the way Allah subhanaw taala designed this world to work according to the rules that govern this world, which we try to discover in science, in physics, chemistry, biology, that's what we try to uncover the Sonetel law.
We try to uncover the the the laws that Allah instilled in this universe. So the universe works according to them in terms of causality.
So
the decree that Allah decreed that this person dies at this time and in this place, then Allah subhanaw taala devices, what a mechanism for that to happen, an immediate cause. So because death was appointed, then the cause the immediate cause was designed. So in that sense, we can say it's the death that caused that accident.
No rocket science, it's simple, it's just looking at things from a higher perspective, a higher perspective, the ultimate cause who's the ultimate cause? Allah subhanaw taala.
Allah is the ultimate cause. And this is why we have to work this way we have a reliance people to say, you know,
you want me to put my trust in Allah.
Right. But there is a mechanism for things. Yeah, things happen by the word of Allah. And Allah is the one who put these mechanisms. So you work with the mechanism, engage with it physically, intellectually, and your heart engages with Allah.
It's a it's a tool, it's how can I say, it's parallel paths, two parallel paths running together, this is how you have to see them going together, you don't want to be stuck in the lower level of reality, which is the physical the scene, part of reality, that's only, you know, part of the picture. The full picture is that there's more depth to this reality, there is more dimensions. And what real like one way is of a paddle is to be able to put both levels at the same level without, you know,
pitting them against each other. They can work in harmony, but not every mind can really, you know, bring them together. Sometimes people get confused. And most of the education that we receive is actually more about materialism is more natural is it's the philosophy of naturalism. What's naturalism. naturalism is what you see what you hear what you measure is what exists anything other than that doesn't exist.
You cancel it
from your calculation. So when you are trained in this from a very early age, and your capacity to understand the unseen world has become dormant because it was neglected, then obviously, people will have issues with this. But the reality is things happen in this life, by means of cause and effect. And this cause and effect has a deeper layer layer of cause and effect, and that's with Allah subhanaw taala.
So the way people say, Do I do think, do I do what I have to do? Or do I put my trust in Allah, they go together? And if someone else says it sees it as either or then obviously they're having trouble in our seeing the physical world, along with the world of the unseen. So what what do they do with this? This is not an intellectual thing. You need to work on your faith.
You need to work on your faith.
Yes, there's more than the intelligence of the mind. There is a deeper intelligence and this is a light from Allah subhanaw taala. So there are things that cannot be understood without faith. Yes, there are things that you cannot understand only intellectually, there are things that need a man so you can understand them. The insistence to translate everything into intellectual language
is a detriment.
intellectualism has its area has its scope, but it should not infringe on an area where the understanding comes from the heart.
That's, that's the light from Allah subhanaw taala.
That's light. That's understanding from Allah subhanaw taala that Allah gives. How does Allah give it Allah gives it to those who devote themselves those who increase in worship those who are sincere, with Allah subhanaw taala those who set their life in a way that leads them to Allah. What Allah Allah said with the hula while you were limo, Kamala,
the motorway you have, the more Allah is gonna teach you. Allah is not necessarily talking about the intellectual stuff.
Allah is talking about other stuff that he learns other stuff that he teaches you.
So he throws it in your heart. And this was known among the scholars. And this is why we mentioned that previously many times but again, no harm repeating it again.
Remember what we said about Imam Malik when he saw the mammoth Shafi when he's eating?
He said in the hour Allah had no water Kalibak
are in the Papa John if you call we can run flatfeet Hobi Massey Attila and I saw Allah has put in your heart light, don't extinguish it with the disobedience of Allah.
So it's not only intellectualism, turning everything into intellectual intellectualism kills the spirit of many things and people there are things you can't understand except with faith, really, are things you can't understand except with faith. And faith is not as we it's not just faith or believing something that's not there. No, this is the realm of the heart and the heart peeks into the world of the unseen.
Yeah, your heart is your spiritual dimension. It has to do with the world of the unseen. Okay, it has to do with it. We don't understand how it works. We don't understand how it works, but it's the connection between us and Allah. And again, another statement from
atterberry Holiday Nomada he said in Elijah had an equilibrium at VRC he was Where are you and if you've followed along for a while NP IV D. And now he Latifi lb that Allah has given everyone two eyes in their head and two eyes
in the heart, and if Allah wants good for a person a lot opens their eyes in their heart statement of Al Hassan Al Basri Rahim Allah Jota again I'm repeating things that we said previously but again that's important for us to reflect upon them
can know he was talking about again the companions will be alone can or will do in a bit difficulty Allah Cory Cory Hello Jeff according
why you now they're gonna go to bed tonight.
You know, the corner Hulu had done.
So they the companions of the Allahu Anhu they used to alternate between technical and tougher call for call is searching.
Alpha crew out difficult palemoon through a scholar say they're looking for reflecting trying to understand something, a tethered cord is more of recovering.
So they will alternate between to the colon to Africa. And they would instigate the hearts to speak until the hearts spoke. That's what we're talking about. Okay. These are things that you cannot get from a book you cannot get from a lecture. This is the work you do with Allah privately and at night when you fast for his sake and no one knows about you. When you read Quran and no one hears about you and you engage and you are immersed in the words of Allah. When you're standing before Allah at night and praying and you're not expecting any reward or recognition of anyone. And you're just doing that for Allah subhanaw taala you enjoy the company of Allah and you feel the closeness of
Allah.
You will learn in these moments things that you will never find in any book or any lecture and no one can give you these are things that are given to you by Allah
Okay, Allah the falafel model scatback Allah the helical multiple Hetalia will work on the yoke Massena, to Allah created life and death so that he tests you in terms of conduct who's the best in conduct among you? Meaning how are you going to live your life? Conduct might give us some, you know, an incomplete image of what we're talking about here. Leo, Leo blue. Welcome, newcomers and Pamela Hello wants to see who's the best view in action? What does that mean? That means who lives the best lifestyle? How do you carry yourself in life?
That's what I said Ramona. We will the problems that we have compartmentalized Islam say, Okay, I'll do some things on the side. Right. But my lifestyle has a lot of issues, but I'll do some things for Allah on the side. So I sent Ramadan, I'm done some good deeds, right? No, that's not how it works. That's anomalous. How do you live your life?
Really, this is how we this is what it means to you commerce, and I'm gonna, how do you navigate this life? How do you go through this life? How do we live this life? What are the choices you make in this life? Where do you put your time? Where do you put your attention?
Everything about your life and the family, as we said, among the early generations, specifically the Companions LML for them, first and foremost, actions of the heart.
actions of the heart. Again, we have to bring this to our attention all the time. Because every time we say good deeds or deeds, we always think about external actions, right? That's what we think about automatically. So the damage is huge. So don't don't get bored of the repetition. We trying to treat something that is really serious. We're so trained to think about things
In a very fragmented manner, you know, I'm an okay I'll do some good deeds. No, I'm the I'm a the the majority of your actions, the majority of your deeds is what you do in your heart. What is this? What is this comprise your intentions,
your beliefs, these are actions, the beliefs you cherish, you entertain the beliefs that you embrace, to guide your life and guide your choices in life. All of that is action. Oh, I thought actually, we're just praying to raka giving some sadaqa thing Subhanallah here and there right now, most of the deeds are what's inside
your beliefs, and how do how they dominate your life and how they inform even your perception and your choices, and how they give birth to your intentions.
And then your choices in life.
Then how you translate that into action. That's where action comes about.
Like the roots under the ground in your heart, go way deeper than the height of the branches. In the end. That's how it is. There's why scholars actually call that shallow Toliman it's called as actually Mobium has a small book about this called church a little Iman, the tree of faith, and he talks about this he talks literally about this
so that's what I said Ramana
so people think oh yeah, I'll in the community. I'll memorize the Quran. So people call me half of all pray. So people see that I am what? I pray the Masjid. I'm regular to the masjid. I'll dress this way. I look this way. I'll say things this way. Right? Yeah, and everyone seasons beautiful is enjoy. It's enjoyable. Why? Because you get some attention.
All of that is fake. If this is the intention, because your heart actions are corrupt, this intention runs counter to what Allah loves. In your heart, you're associating some partners with Allah. It's not major sugar can show a lot. It could get to that level, but it's not major Schilke.
But it's a serious thing. So the actions when you think about actions, they are in the heart, mainly, your which what we call feelings,
what we call feelings, what we call beliefs, what we call intentions, choices in life, our preferences, all of these are in your heart. They're invisible to anyone. And most people run away from them. Most people don't want to look inward and deal with those and address those. But Allah says, Whenever you see a woman as a worker, of lemons, aka Oklahoman
and a self that he created, so the one who takes care of it, who restores it, who polishes it up, who improves it who develops it, that means you have to work look inward.
Those will be successful. The Sangha neglected, the ones who neglected it and just paid attention outside. They have a very poor relationship with what's inside so they don't know what's going on. When you let that inside without a manager, you know, shaytaan is gonna come in and fill that position, he will be the CEO of yourself. And you know, what could come out of this.
So this is the blue Acoma ucommerce. And Ramallah will Azizullah for he's the Almighty, the powerful he's the forgiving Allah, the Halacha, sub SML atom play balca. He's the one who created the heavens seven levels. Now, obviously, we don't see this and we don't know what the seven levels are. But we believe in a loss penalty.
And some scholars made this is called Tafseer. A Sherry It's more like a very distant, remote, indication, subtle indication is the text. They say, just as the heavens Allah mentions the heavens as levels, but even your actions and the levels of your actions are levels as well. So what we mentioned actions of the heart and then they how they develop and express outward
metal articles of amendment without you can't find any flaws or any defects with the creation of Allah. Samantha is perfect. It's meticulous, it's perfect. There's nothing wrong with it. There's no blemishes, no issues, no deficiency, and that is just perfect creation because it is Allah subhanaw taala who created it? Allah subhanaw taala who created it you can't see any flaws in it. You can't see any flaws in the in the in the creation of the heavens. Then Allah says look again and again and try to search for anything you want find any flaw and that should be a means for you to glorify Allah subhanho wa Taala
Yeah, let's continue with the second part.

warning the lowest have been with Lance and have made domiciles which to pulp the devils and we have prepared for them the punishment of the region fire. For those who disbelieve in the Lord, there will be the punishment of how a half is journeys and when they are flung into it. They will hear is gasping as a boils up, almost bursting with rage. Every time in the group is flung into it, its keepers will ask them to no longer come to you. He will say yes indeed a word did come to us. But we are we this believe that said a lot has not sent out anything. You are no doubt engraved error. And they will say if only we had listened or understood we will be not we will not be among the
inhabitants of the region fire. That is we have beautified your lowest heaven, which is the one that you see and is nearest to you with loves, namely the stars with all their variations and light and brightness. Were enough for the stars that it contains. It would be a dark room with no beauty or a doorman in it. But Allah has made these stars in a dormant beauty and light for the Heaven and a means of navigation in the darkness in the darkness on land and sea. The fact that Allah tells us that he has adorned the lowest heaven with laughs does not rule out the idea that many of the stars are above the seven heavens, for the heavens are transparent. And that and that is how the lowest
heavens of the word, even if there are no stars in it, and have made them namely the lamps, Miss aisles with which to pelt the devils who want to eat junk on the news of Helen. Allah has made these lamps to prevent the devils from receiving use of Earth. There are as there are the shooting stars which Allah has prepared in this world for the devils and we have to prepare for them in the hereafter the punishment of the region fire because they rebelled against the law and misled slaves like clouds likewise with regard to their followers among the disbelievers. Allah has also prepared for them the punishment of the raging fire. Hence he says, for those who disbelieve in their Lord,
there will be the punishment of health or happiness journeys and in which its inhabitants will a great in the will be greatly humiliated.
When they are plugged into it by way of humiliation. You will hear it's gasping, that is allowed and frightening noise as well as almost bursting with rage. That is a will almost split apart and break into pieces because it's because of its intense rage towards the disbelievers. So what do you think I will do? So what do you think it will do to them when they are in it? That Allah mentions the rebuke of the keepers of hell to its inhabitants? Every time a group is flung into it, it's keepers will ask them did no more come to you? That is with regard to your situation now. And the fact that you deserve how it is as if you were not told about it and received no warning concerning they will
say yes, indeed, award awarded did come to us. But we disbelieved and said Allah is not sundown anything. You are no doubt in gray

But it did not stop there. Rather does it clear the old messengers who brought the warning to them and who are guided and guided, others were misguided. And they were in and they did not stop describing them as being merely misguided. Rather, they claimed that they went far astray. What stubbornness, arrogance and misguidance could be equal to this. And they will say acknowledging that they did not deserve to be guided. If only we had listened or understood, we would not be among the inhabitants of the raging fire. So they will state that they have not had the means to be guided, which is the willingness to listen to what Allah has sent down and the messenger is broad and the
ability to understand that which will benefit one and help and help one to comprehend the realities of things give precedence to what is good and be deterred from everything that will lead to negative consequences, but he did not listen or understand. This is in contrast to the people of certain faith and knowledge. Those who are prominent in terms of sincerity and faith. They supported their faith by means of the textual evidence. So they listen to them which came from a law and was brought by the messenger of allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and they learned it and they learned in it the sense that they understood it and acted upon it. They also supported their faith by means of
rational evidence. So they recognize the difference between guidance and misguidance. Right and moral good and evil. Their level of faith was commensurate with that with what Allah has blessed them with, with with our understanding of the rational and textual evidence, glory be to the one who singles out for his grace wonder whomever he wills and He blesses whomever he wills among his slaves and forsakes those who are not who are not fit for a good husband.

Those they will acknowledge their sin so away with the inhabitants of the raging fire that is away with them. May they be lost and how wretched and bad the art for they have missed out on the reward of a law I
And are the inhabitants of the freezing fire, which will burn the bodies and reach their hearts. Very, very those who fear the Lord, Lord unseen will have forgiveness and a great reward. Having mentioned the situation of the doomed evil towards Allah now mentioned the situation of the righteous and blessed. Verily those who fear the Lord on scene, that is, in all circumstances, even its intuitive in situations where no one can see them except the law, do you do not commit acts of disobedience towards them, and they do not fall short with regard to that which he has enjoyed upon them will have forgiveness. And if Allah forgives their sins, He will protect them from the evil
thereof and protect them from the punishment of health and they will have a great reward, which is what Allah has prepared for them in paradise of eternal bliss, about us to mean ongoing pleasures, enjoyment of all that the desire palaces, love to dwelling is beautiful over and servants.
And even greater than that will be the pleasure of the Most Gracious which Allah will bestow upon the people of paradise.
Okay, so the rest of the surah talks about it's more of a arguments with the people of disbelief to get them to think and ponder, but we will comment on this in sha Allah pot today.
So Allah subhanaw taala, there's a beautiful transition in this solar very, very beautiful transition. So Allah talks about the seven heavens and their magnificent creation. even Allah says that he beautified the heavens, the skies with these stars. Remember Sandy surfaces here?
I mean, the stars could be in the first heaven and there could be even beyond the seven heavens. We don't know for sure. There's nothing in the Quran or the Sunnah that specifies exactly where the seven heavens are what's exactly in them of the visible, visible, visible world that we see. So we don't know exactly. We don't know exactly.
But what we know is that the creation of the heavens and the skies is magnificent beyond our imagination, and Subhanallah SubhanAllah. Now with telescopes, these gigantic electronic telescopes, they can they try detecting things that are millions of light years away.
And obviously, that's still the creation of Allah. So how far does this go into the seven seven heavens? We don't know.
But that just shows you the magnificent creation of Allah subhanho wa taala. And again, it doesn't benefit us to know. It doesn't really benefit us to know something about for our own thought.
Again, in his misunderstanding of the aqidah that Prophet Musa Ali Salam came with about Allah subhanaw taala he's above his creation.
Kalia manual binaries are handily available as Bab Sperber Sinha Watty for Polya Hina. In Musa, he said Oh, Herman, the
assistant or the prime minister of Iran. So for answer to him build for me a ladder.
So I could order a tower that I could climb and reach the God of Musa
so again, that's a misunderstanding of what is above us really means. And unfortunately, eventually some Muslims even fell into a misunderstanding of the names and attributes of Allah subhanaw taala as they occur on the one so the transition, the beautiful transition, the Salah is that Allah talks about the stars and the shooting stars and how they serve the purpose of destroying the sheltering that try to steal any kind of news right? From the conversations of the angels about the commands that Allah gave them.
Then the transition is then Allah says
well I tend an alarm either but say we prepared for them
the not only this punishment in this life for these devils for the sheltering
Well, I didn't know my dad was here and today on the day of judgment we prepared for them we have in store for them a very severe and burning punishment. Well, the lady NACA follow Bella became a double Johanna novice and massive and also for the disbelievers is the punishment of Johanna hellfire. And what an evil final destination. Either Ophelia that Allah talks about, you know what happens to them when they are thrown into it, he or she has I mean, hola Asha here, as they are thrown into it, they feel the gasp of the breathing of the Hellfire. And you know any kind it's like, any fire, you know, gives that kind it has this this quality of breathing right? It has this
raging sound. It has the raging sound that sounds sometimes more like breath. It's like a furnace. Right. Send me Hola, Harsha. Here go here for Allah
describes it as if it's
like a living object. And it is it has a character of its own Seminole ash and he'll go here to four as it boils and bubbles in its heat. And is it series in its heat, and they hear this sound that is about to devour them. semiological weight of what occurred to me is when it's about to, like split, it's like full of rage. It's full of rage against those, why is it full of rage? For Allah subhanaw taala How dare you disbelievers disobey Allah and challenge.
That's where its rage is coming from. Tucker do 20 years women crave is the highest level of rage and anger and resentment.
So he wants to devour them and and melt them and eat them up. Why? Because they violated the rights of Allah subhanaw taala they acted unfaithfully to Allah subhanaw taala they committed the gravest crime ever.
Together Tamiya kulana Altair if you have out there will be thrown into as groups into it. Called along Khazanah tois the you know, the the wardens, the guards of the of the Hellfire, the angels who are guarded, who again, sort of manage it.
Calm has to come near dinner messenger come to you. Why did you do this to yourself? Didn't the messenger didn't wanna come to you? Didn't you hear the news about this? They said, Yeah, we received the messenger. But you know what, we were very intellect. We're very intellectual. We're very intelligent. We were very smart. We had sciences. We had knowledge that told us where humans came from, and how they evolved,
and how the universe came came to be.
It's not like they were stupid. These were people who had what, what seemed to be knowledge,
what seemed to be knowledge and still presented as knowledge. And still many people buy into this stuff.
And people confuse you know what truth or science really is? And what the interpretation of the facts are facts, and what the interpretation of facts is, people confuse that a lot of what you learn is facts mixed with interpretation. What are theories, theories are interpretations trying to make sense of facts.
Because facts, if you bring facts, individually, or even collectively, they don't make sense. They don't make a story.
You need to put them together in a framework, in a story in a narrative, and a model that is explains them that makes that makes them coherent,
internally consistent, and you get something out of them.
That's the work of the mind. That's interpretation. That's people forcing their own interpretation, their own theory, their own, you know, suggested ideas. And people take that as what, as hard science, this is not hard science, this is opinion.
This is conjecture.
And the distinction is extremely important.
So, so these people, the angels will tell them, we'll ask them, didn't you receive messengers to news if one is did you received the news about the cell fire? They said, Yes. For Cancer webinar, we disbelieved and in order for you to disbelieve, you have to have an alternative.
People don't just disbelieve, people disbelieve, because they have something else to hold on to.
People have something to hold on to. And this is why, you know, we shouldn't take any, any any form of education innocently.
Any kind of learning education, imparting of knowledge, don't take it personally, it's not innocent.
Look at yourself as a device that was created to receive the truth.
process it and
produce outcome out of it.
And instead of getting that truth, something else, another element, another, another, some other substances put in.
What's gonna happen?
It hinders the original process.
It hinders the we have marginalized Islam in our lives. And I'm talking about parents. I'm talking about generations of parents. That Islam, oh, yeah, let's just, you know, get everything like everyone else. Like people everywhere in the world has become more advanced, it's become more civilized. Let's think about our future, our job, our career and all of that stuff. And you know what? Yeah, I'll pick a couple of things from Islam. I'll just sort of, you know,
I'll place them here and there is niceties.
That's the opposite of what things should be.
We are
We're here to worship Allah.
We are here to worship Allah.
Everything else is details and extra
you take from it. What helps you get by on your path to Allah? We've done the opposite.
And that's why we struggle. This is why people say, Oh, I struggle with my salah. I struggle with my faith. I have doubt. I struggle with my for sure. I have I have issues. I have questions.
Oh, can you please just clarify this to me.
You know, the rift is so huge and big. It's not a matter of sewing get with.
You know, with a needle and a thread. It's not it's not easy, there's a lot of inner, there's a lot of work that needs to be done seriously. And there's no way around it.
There's no shortcuts, you either do things right, or you've done them wrong. And you're gonna get results in both cases.
So trying to get correct results from the wrong equation, it will never happen. Simple. A few Allah is not first and foremost in your life. If knowledge about Allah is not first and foremost in your life,
your life is not going to get right. It's just not gonna get right. As simple as that.
It's really as simple as that.
We are created for Allah simple credit for Allah, Allah gave us the knowledge that we need.
So we are supposed to, like tell our kids, we are here for a short period of time, obviously don't say in a dramatic way.
Make them lose hope in life. But do it in a way that is suitable for them. And they say it in your conduct in your in your all in your whole way of being right. And your choices in life and your decisions. They see it in your expressions and everything it's present in your life. That's the only way you can teach and educate by the way, otherwise, your kids will see through your,
your all of your showing, showing off, they'll see that the see through it.
So you have you're supposed to really make your kids get the point that we are here on a temporary basis, we are given an opportunity by Allah subhanaw taala to make it back to paradise. That's what we're doing here on Earth. Anything else you want to do in life should actually be chosen and picked up? Only because it helps you in that in this regard? It maximizes your capacity.
That's it.
Oh, that sounds radical.
Yeah, because you're looking from that side.
You can from that side. You know, for me, Windsor is far house 600 kilometers. But if you're in Windsor, Windsor is not far right. So if I say, Hey, we're going to Windsor. Wow, that's too far. We're driving toward with us too far for if someone lives just outside Windsor, right? Oh, we're driving to Windsor? Yeah, let's go.
It's 15 minutes, right? It's relative, it's relative. So the all these terms are not absolute? Oh, that's radical. That's all like, that's unusual. All of these are relative in our judgments.
Okay, so.
So on the Dave again, and the hellfire, these people, they said we have received, we have received that. And we received everything. But you know what? You know, we thought we had a better argument. We thought we were more intelligent. We thought oh, this was backward people in the desert or ride camels and live in tents. This this is what this is for. And this is what's blinding a lot of people from this.
Or again, all of the other propaganda stuff about terrorism and about spreading by the sword and about women's rights and about all of this stuff. And we don't realize, again, most of us are actually have gone through this indoctrination. And we are looking at Islam through that lens. And we have issues with Islam. A lot of Muslims have issues with Islam, very, very serious issues with Islam. And no answer can really you know, get these things out. Unless you realize what is the mindset that is creating all these doubts, and bringing about all of this confusion making you see things not in the right light.
And when you fix that issue, there will be no questions. No answers are needed. The problem is in the mindset and it's not in the information.
It's not in the information. Okay, so then Allah subhanaw taala compares them. Eventually they they recognize and they admit that they are the ones who wronged themselves and they were not paying attention. They didn't listen and didn't use their minds Subhan Allah and Islam you will find these all the time. A seminar will alkyl revelation and sound intellect
sound intellect, not intellect sound intellect which comes from football. Sound intellectual Apple comes from football.
And Apple in Islam, Allah says
The afternoon Locanda we are to come tackling so that you may what?
Yeah.
You might grasp things with your sound judgment sound judgment is based on the fatwa is not only thinking people I've turned apple into what thinking intelligence no intellect the translate the most of the translations translate our goal is to intellect. No intellect is you can process information
like any computer any device after is when your device is functioning according to a healthy operating system that is free of bugs and issues
which is your footlong that's Arkel.
And one of the people who really did a very beautiful wonderful work on this was given to me by my Allahu Taala
because many Muslim generations thought oh, there was some kind of distinction or some kind of disparity between Islam and sound intellect why because sound intellect for them was based on Greek philosophy. And they don't really they didn't realize they they accepted the foundations or the premises of
Greek philosophy to be unquestionable, and logically absolute.
And that's why they started trying to change Islam or put Islam in a shape that is more in line with Greek philosophy. And that's when issues with Aveda started
issues with understanding the Quran and Farrakhan was all started.
And it was been Tamia. Subhan Allah who wrote a magnificent book, dark water out of the alkaline knuckled
that basically he professes that there is no no difference between revelation authentic revelation and sound reason.
There's no There's no difference. They come from the same source. And they are identical and they agree and anytime there is any seeming disagreement is because either the narration or the text is inauthentic, or the intellect or the thinking was not sound. That's the only way they will not match as profound work very, very profound work. And I think a PhD by a brother was done in McGill University.
I forgot his name, his name was like in German, Austrian name something but look at it, reason and Revelation even Timmy on reason and Revelation. So he summarized the whole work in a PhD thesis and it was very very powerful. Good summary. So look it up it would definitely be helpful but it's not an easy read. Okay, we can take maybe one or two questions quickly smell
I'll have to leave before he shops. So
it has been guys are they the same thing more or are the seven gentlemen and then the seven skies?
No skies in Arabic languages summer is what some of you
whatever is above you is full automatically falls into the skies a summer. Okay. Now the Prophet Solomon the journey of the soul man he mentioned some of the details who are the prophets that he met and the different levels of Jana and above Jana is elevated Malmo where the angels worship there is similar to the monta great tree Lotus tree and Jana is above that. And then Jana itself is levels and the highest level of Janessa for those Hula, hula and above that is an ash
thrown over last pinata Taala so this is roughly what we know. This is a map of what we know. Yeah. Okay, sisters,
sisters, brothers, question hams.
When it comes down, you have to second
you mentioned the mindset of non believers
the correct mindset that a Muslim should have is in the Quran
isn't the Quran and the Hadith and our tradition is full. A lot of us you know, I know even myself like I'm not I'm not free from that. At some level, most of us look at what the companions had. We think it's so simple. It's very simple, a naive, but you know what, it's our understanding of it that is so simple a knife, the Companions, whatever came from the Companions is so profound and so consistent in ways that are baffling, that are baffling, really, like for them knowledge was not something to talk about. It was like so spontaneous, the depth of that wisdom was so spontaneous and so deep, like they could again look at the situation and figure it out. Altogether, the whole thing,
all the details, and it would take one of us months to just study and understand
It was that level literally, I'm not, I'm not exaggerating, but Subhanallah it's so when you don't understand something, you obviously you put it down, or you, you projecting your lack of understanding on something Oh, that's very simple, too simple. But it's actually SubhanAllah. The knowledge of the companions is so consistent. It is mind boggling. Really, it's mind boggling SubhanAllah. And it's so profound and the amount of wisdom in what they say in what they do. And there are things about history, even the conflicts that happened among the companions, you see some of the companions, some of the statements they made and the stances they took. And you think, Oh,
that's very naive and simple. But you know what, when you grow in life, and you start it's life teaches you the hard way, and you look at that stuff, you say, Wow, that there was so much wisdom that I never saw in this.
So it's really the Quran and the Sunnah. It's really the Quran and the Sunnah, is just engaging with them. And people say but I engaged in the Quran and Sunnah memorized, but I didn't get or whatever. You know what? We are impatient. We are impatient. This wisdom has developed over time as sort of simmers. And, you know, it ferments over time. But we are impatient. We we think it's this is what we used to this pattern, inflammation, pick it up and move on. That's not how knowledge really deep knowledge is obtained. It takes time to to be ready. Time, Jacqueline la herencia. I'll see you next Friday. Also last night while he was here.
