My beloved brothers and sisters, you and I

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

know that Musa alayhis salam or the prophet

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

Moses, may peace be upon him,

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

was one of the greatest of the prophets

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

of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,

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

one of the top 5.

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

And Allah Almighty makes mention of his name

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

the most in the Quran from among the

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

messengers.

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

The fact that his name has been mentioned

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

the most does not elevate his status beyond

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

that of

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

Muhammad

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

Because

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

your name being mentioned in the Quran, or

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

should I say a name being mentioned in

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

the Quran,

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

does not necessarily mean

00:00:42--> 00:00:45

that it is depicted of its value based

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

on how many times it is mentioned.

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

And the reason I say this is there

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

are people who are saying

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

that

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

Jesus, may peace be upon him, has a

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

higher status in prophethood than Muhammad because

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

he was mentioned more times in the Quran.

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

And that

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

is not true. It's got nothing to do

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

with how many times you were mentioned.

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

The prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam, the Quran was

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

revealed to him.

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

So

00:01:14--> 00:01:16

if the Quran was revealed to him, it

00:01:16--> 00:01:19

is natural that his name won't appear in

00:01:19--> 00:01:20

the Quran

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

as many times

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

as other messengers

00:01:24--> 00:01:27

whose stories were repeated in the Quran.

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

Another thing is,

00:01:30--> 00:01:33

if value was added to the number of

00:01:33--> 00:01:34

times

00:01:35--> 00:01:36

someone was mentioned in the Quran,

00:01:37--> 00:01:39

then the pharaoh or Firaun is mentioned in

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

the Quran so many times. What value did

00:01:42--> 00:01:44

he have? Nothing at all. It was reverse

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

value.

00:01:45--> 00:01:48

Shaitan, Iblis is mentioned several times in the

00:01:48--> 00:01:49

Quran.

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

So let's get this straight.

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

How many times your name or a name

00:01:54--> 00:01:56

is mentioned in the Quran is not indicative

00:01:57--> 00:01:59

of its value in the eyes of Allah

00:01:59--> 00:02:00

Almighty.

00:02:01--> 00:02:03

We believe that Afdalul Khalki wa Akramurusuli

00:02:04--> 00:02:06

is Nabi Muhammad sallallahu

00:02:06--> 00:02:08

alaihi wasallam. What that means is

00:02:09--> 00:02:11

the greatest of creation, the most noble of

00:02:11--> 00:02:13

Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam.

00:02:11--> 00:02:13

Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
