The speaker discusses the creation of a test for Christians to determine their level of submission to Islam. The test involves testing their actions and their beliefs, as it is necessary to determine whether they are a believer or not. The test can be difficult for some, but ultimately, it is necessary for everyone to achieve their levels of understanding and understanding.AI Generated Transcript ©
If Allah wanted, He would not have created
haram. There would have only been halal. But
Allah created haram for you to get closer
to him by disciplining yourself and holding back
from doing things that are displeasing to him.
That's why he created haram.
He created haram so that you can engage
in an act of worship known as abstention
for the sake of Allah.
He created haram so that wherever you faulted
you can engage in an act of worship
known as repentance for the sake of Allah.
Allah Almighty created all of this as a
test for us, mankind. That's why he says
in the Quran,
I have not created mankind or jinnkind except
that they worship Me. That's one verse. Another
one,
Allah says, does man think it is sufficient
for him to just say I'm a believer
and then he won't be tested?
Allah says,
we have tested those before you as well.
We have tested those before them. Them meaning
all of us.
In order to distinguish between those who are
truthful in their claim
and those who are false.
You claim to worship Allah, you claim to
be a believer, you say
I'm a believer. Allah says well we're going
to test you now. And that's one of
the reasons why
a believer has more tests
than one who doesn't believe.
You are in, like I say, you are
in the school. You have enrolled for the
examination.
So you will be tested. The others are
not in the school. They have not enrolled
in the examination. They will enjoy outside. But
when the qualification
comes, who gets it? You get it.
Because you were in it, you struggled,
you were tested,
and you passed your test, and you were
tested again. A more difficult test. And as
you grew older, the test became more and
more difficult. But you passed them all the
time, and you had the manual, and you
studied it. What is it? The Quran, the
sunnah of Rasulullah
And you corrected yourself, you went back and
you passed those exams. But the others who
don't even believe, they're not even in the
school, they haven't even enrolled. So Allah says,
don't allow
yourself to be
deceived by those
who are distant from us and yet they're
enjoying the life on earth.
Allah says we will give them on earth.
If they did good, we will give them
for the hereafter.
for the hereafter.
