00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			What is the way of insulting Nabi salalahu
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:02
			alaihi wa sallam?
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:07
			By innovating in the deen. That's the biggest
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:09
			way of insulting the messenger. Why?
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:11
			He was sent to me and you to
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:14
			show me and you how Allah wants to
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:15
			be worshiped. That was his job.
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:18
			He came here to tell us about Allah
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:20
			and how Allah wants to be worshiped. What
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:23
			is it Allah wants? Halal Haram was shown
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:26
			how to worship Allah was shown, and then
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:28
			we believe that the deal was completed and
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			sealed totally. Sealed.
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			Whatever was in it, it was in it,
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:34
			and there is nothing out of it that's
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			supposed to be in it it at all.
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:38
			So that was his job. He asked the
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:39
			Sahaba in Hatjatulwada.
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:42
			This is my job. Have I delivered? They
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44
			said, yes. He says, oh, Allah,
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			Bear witness that they bear witness that I
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:47
			delivered.
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:50
			And we come and innovate. Allahu Akbar. You
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			know what an innovation means? It means
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			there is one thing you forgot that the
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55
			Sheikh down the road knew.
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:57
			That's what it means.
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:58
			That's the meaning of innovation.
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			How can we get paradise if we want
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:03
			to come up with something more than what
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:04
			Allah
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08
			required? He sent the best of creation
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:11
			to show you how He wants to be
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:13
			worshiped, and we want to worship Him in
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:15
			a way that was not there.
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:18
			This is why we say, you want paradise,
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			you want everything, alhamdulillah, we described
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			it. But this is a small
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:23
			explanation
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:27
			of how we would be insulting Rasul salawalahu
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:28
			alaihi wa sallam. Come on. He was a
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:29
			Nabi.
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:36
			We believe that he conveyed the message in
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:37
			the most
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:41
			eloquent form, in the highest form, and he
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:43
			definitely delivered all the goods. Delivered. There are
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			no goods that He forgot to deliver.
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:46
			Subhanallah.
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:47
			May Allah
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			grant us that love so that we can
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:51
			meet Him in paradise.
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			And it is reported that if all the
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56
			creatures who were supposed to be in paradise
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:59
			had to be brought on to one level,
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:00
			they would be fitting on that level with
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:03
			ease. But still Allah will separate them into
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:04
			100 different levels.
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:07
			This is also the gift of Allah subhanahu
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:10
			wa ta'ala. And Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala really
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:11
			may he grant that to us and may
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:13
			he open our doors. We're only on page
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:14
			3, my brothers.
