Bismillahirrahmanirrahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil aalameen or salat wa salam O Allah say the mursaleen Muhammad in while early he was a big man.
Continuing with Quran, we are in week four
and this is a continuation of what we talked last week the topic was, for the essence the virtues of color.
So if you wish to title tonight's lesson, this is it the virtues of the
last week, we have to quickly revise them or finish off with the remaining three today, inshallah.
So, let's start with a quick revision of what we took last week. And then let's continue with tonight's new content. We said among the many virtues of the Quran
and by the way, before we start with that, we said that if you look at the puts this chapter before Tafseer itself, why
the city is more important, but why did he put this first
to motivate you, when you learn about the virtues of the Quran and the rewards they're in and motivates you to learn to recite it, memorize it learning succeed, etc. So al Bukhari actually mentioned the virtues after taxes. So the first virtue we mentioned last week was
can remember.
Perfect surpasses the miracles of the earlier prophets. *
yeah, one way was, he can see it today. In other words, it's not temporary. I sent him the earlier prophets, the miracles that they came with with temporary can't see them as a Christian show you now fail, ask a Jew to show you now fail. Ask a Buddhist to show you now failed. Ask a Muslim to show you the miracle of Rasul Allah now takes up an Allahu Akbar, you have a miracle in your pocket. It's upon Allah the Quran Amazing, amazing. So it surpasses the miracles of the earlier prophets and messengers.
And more Jesus will holida the everlasting miracle.
So it's an everlasting miracle for the eyes to read and the ears to listen to up until the day of judgment.
And we said usually, with the Quran, people think they are reading I'm gonna get rewards, perhaps also a bit of guidance. Maybe when I'm sick, she fat that's about it. But there's so much more what was that phrase? We mentioned that Dr. Mohammed Ismail said that was an acronym.
So Masha, he said, this word.
So Misha is an acronym for things and benefits and virtues of the Quran. The third stands for what's the reward? So you read the Quran, you're rewarded the meme manager, which is
correct. A conversation and talking with Allah. Because it's the word of Allah when you really he's talking to you the second meme, Miss Allah.
Salah correct asking, Do I correct? The Sheen, Shiva? And we said it's not Dawa. What's the difference?
QE zero but what about medicine accuse you sometimes was the medicine. Sometimes it doesn't. So medicine is not always a cure, but always always a cure. So it's she fat not the first time.
I'm Molly knowledge, you get knowledge
and
action.
Knowledge and action. Beautiful couple they go hand in hand. As a foreigner we also said the way they're written in Arabic. Amen. I exact same number exact same number of letters and the exact same that is what's actually switched is the Lamb and the meme. And what comes first in the Arabic language lamb omim
lamb so that's why the lamb was put before the may mean that's why in Ireland knowledge comes first before Amen. So even in the makeup of the word the woods structure, the lamb is first before the main land before the main and thus in indicates that knowledge before action, an eternal then it comes action after knowledge. Amazing interesting. That Arabic language is RG RG so look what you can get out of that and more but let's just say you have the staff of more Sally's salon with you right now in this room. You can't use it for she fat, rub it over your body get cute. You can't use it to converse, have a conversation with right talk to it. So I
helped me write for the car. You can use it to crack some every head if they're giving you a hard time.
Right You can't really use it for rewards by just holding a be rewarded. You can use it together
Knowledge, you read it to learn, you know, read the look at it and learn about the flip of Salah. And you're not going to get those things out of those earlier, the miracles but we could earn that and move on.
Then we talked about the reward in specific, focused on that.
Among the things we said was
correct. Every single that he read from the Quran you are awarded 10 has a net 10 has a net, every letter, show me a document in the world, I don't care how valuable it is, we will get $10 for every letter on a law. Apparently the Constitution of the United States is the most important document in the world. Well, Barack Obama, the world's leading terrorists won't give you $10 for every letter, he went to give you $1 In fact, you won't even give you one cent. But I was gonna give you 10 minutes for every level. Imagine someone told you I'll give you $10 for every level of the Quran, you read it day and night, day and night, day and night. It's amazing. And we said the reward from
unfair to have to win us. If you count it, approximately 33,200,000 has a net and guess what Ramadan is multiplied many times over. And there's another Hadith that you may be rewarded up to not 10 but 700 times so multiply 33 million by 700. In the billions now requested.
Listening to also is rewarding. Exactly what Allahu Allah. But there is reward we said thermo Eva is the mayor who is bad. There are two who Eva da Lu Eva Da Li Mo, Eva alactic mo Li e ADA. So we said reading it, learning it, teaching it, reciting it, judging by it, all of it is wish all of
you don't get that with any other book. just
multiply 33 million by 700 error, even the calculator couldn't even handle it. You just blew it circuit error.
Both a lot of jail, he keeps track it keeps records on a lot. Sometimes you got to work and you do an extra hour the boss doesn't notice. And sometimes you feel too shy to even ask. You feel too embarrassed. Can you please give me my one I was $5 extra. If you're shy, some people aren't sure I don't say I look, one minute overtime, you gotta pay me. But sometimes you do less or you do more whatever, you're not gonna get your exact pay. And even if imagine now you go to you go home after job after work, you clock off, sign off, and you're eating, sleeping, showering, you're also going to pay for that a lot of gel over and over in the parenthesis as your own vairo mamnoon keeps on
going everlasting doesn't stop doesn't stop. So even when you die, you pass away you still getting an award it's upon Allah, and which boss is going to pay you when you even quit. I'm outta here. All right, if you can't find me because I create your work out, it's not gonna pay you. You probably even dock your pay if they have if it hasn't gone through for that week, because it's just the way you left. But no one's gonna pay you if you've actually left that job last week, Jen will still reward you when you leave this world still reward you later. You're not dealing with a boss or CEO here. Allahu Akbar. And we said also the reward is more than that. It was said it is said to the
Companion of the Quran companion. Why companion? In other words, you stick with it just like you stick with your mates your buddies you hang out with them all the time. You know them well could and should know we'll stick to it. It's your companion you call the saw he will turn on the dare just mean he said to him, Accra waratah taki read recite and you'll be raised into gender. And your last station is where we're used to. The more you know, the higher you go, Allahu Akbar, with the Quran is going to raise you and that's what we said I'll create an E alpha. Well yes for ya and for sapan Allah, your fighter raise you in this world in the hereafter. That's why even our aim of the Quran I
raised the given lofty positions and your monthly ama and in German, so raise you That was the first one then we said, Yes. intercede. It will intercede for you.
You know, when a person has to go to court, they'll find the best lawyer in town. Please get me out of this jam. Right? Please help me the best lawyer. What better lawyer quote unquote, then a laws word himself. You think Allah is gonna reject it his own words, his own words. It will intercede for you however we get close with the Quran. We said that the earlier Matt said about the Quran. It's like a true companion and friend. Why? Because the closer you get to a mate, the more they open up to you, the more they talk to you, they tell you their secrets. So likewise, the more you get closer with the Quran, it opens up to shares with you
It's gems, listen to those in wisdom.
And we said, Yeah, it'll benefit you. It'll benefit you in this world and the hereafter.
And we also said the hadith of Alma hero bill CRAN. The expert in the Quran has the rank of
the angels panela the angels, the expert himself, I'm not an expert. Where do I fit in this hadith? Well guess what? When Livia crawl, Tata Alfie, well, who Alisha The one who reads the Quran with a Tata, even the way it comes out, he started getting carried. And he finds difficulty what's the reward, larger on double reward upon a lot. The reason that person might use to leave reciting the Quran became the reason for staying to recite the Quran to panela usually a person leaves something was too hard, or your reason for leaving became the reason for staying, you're going to stay makes you want to stay. It actually makes you want to stay being a person who studies and finds
difficulty, right? You want to stay hopeless. The pilot activities you want to stay hopeless. But no, of course you want to be at the rank of the angels always aim high. Aim high, as the saying goes, aim for the moon. Because if you miss it, if hit the stars, the way those harbor that would go there would not pass 10 as until they knew them, understood them implemented them. That's how the Sahaba were. Good. That was a quick revision. Now for tonight's lesson. Number three, among the many virtues of the Quran, is that
it has been exclusively what's exclusively,
only only one exclusively sent down the only book of Revelation that was exclusively sent down via seven heavenly gates upon a lot or the other books, the one heavenly gate for each. So the Quran number three third virtue
exclusively
sent down
via seven heavenly gates.
Western Hadith
or the Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam kanelkatagba our young gentlemen Babin where he the minister.
The previous books were sent down via one heavenly gate. Allah how often were head on one how, what have we said, we citation mode style. So the earlier books were sent out in one style one clearer, we know the clan has been cynthiana many spirit However, one as lol kuromon savatya Web. The Quran was sent out via seven heavenly Gates is about Yahoo.
And it was sent down also in seven different styles. murdery citations as we took in sciences of Quran last term upon unique, unique and among the benefits of the seven liberal arts. What did we say?
Make it easier for the other Arab tribes because not everyone could speak in the high eloquent language of Quraysh. The Quran was originally sent down via the language of Croatia was a default, there are default mode. But that was the most eloquent and highest or everyone could speak like that there were other tribes like an OS 100 Raj or bentota, meme Obando sad waterfall etc. They couldn't speak eloquently, like what I think of it like today, some people can't speak as eloquent as some of the British, very sophisticated, very rugged speaker like that. So it came fees, but also it came to show what
the miraculous nature of the Quran if I told you this one book that I have here, beginning to end, no mistakes or contradictions. That's amazing. That's miraculous. Now that book has that virtue. What if I said there are so this book can be restarted in seven different modes, yet none of them contradicted meaning that's far more miraculous, that's divine, that's divine. Now, that's even more miraculous upon add more pearls to the Quran. Amazing. Number four.
Among the virtues of the Quran, is that it's your means of happiness.
But also, it's a means of
removing distress.
Both to one combination.
Where do we get this from?
For the Z?
Yeah, that's true. That's what it is. But I draw your attention to sort of by a particular we said the way a pseudo begins, is always connected to the Y ends, always, always, always had a sort of tie begin for all her.
ends in la kelkar analytische la
So we didn't send them and so you may find distress there in. So you may be miserable, sad and upset, no happy. That wasn't why we send the code aunty. That's how it begins. In other words, the Quran is not a means of distress. How does sort of tie in towards the end of this surah Allah says, woman out of the victory over turns away from my reminder, my remembrance meeting the Quran for in Allahu nyesha 10 banca they have a hard difficult distressful life upon Allah. So Allah azza wa jal starts to reply by saying the Quran is a means of removing the stress. And Allah answered by saying, further turns away from the Quran will have a life of distress and miserable life, a bad life upon a
lot. That's why you find the kuffar committing suicide killing themselves why? They're not happy. They're not happy, even though they may have millions upon millions fortunes in wealth and riches. They're not happy, it's upon a lot. In fact, even celebrities and so called stars, these people are the ones giving themselves more than the layman. So it's your means of happiness and removing distress.
So why put the key to happiness is someone else's pocket when you have in your own people could earn What are people searching for happiness? They take pills, antidepressant drugs, they go on drugs, ice, cocaine, speed, heroin, marijuana, right? They go on these things wide to find happiness. Apparently, we have in the Quran and the Sunnah when hamdu Lillahi Rabbil aalameen. I told him when people have problems, what do they do they call the machine if they call them for advice.
You know, it's funny that when your Wi Fi, or your internet connection cuts out, or drops out, what do you do? rush to fix it. But what about when our connection with the book of a law is broken? has dropped what a rush to fix that. It's a shame that many people that can't go for a day without Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Flickr, Viber, Skype, WhatsApp, the huntable all these things a day, but they find to go for days on end without opening the book of Allah, or a shame if we haven't opened up the code and my dear brothers since last Ramadan if we ever open up to Korea and since Ramadan is a big problem at the disaster, as we always said they will keep on saying this occurrence
for ourselves not for ourselves. If the Quran is only opened up in Ramadan when someone dies at a masiva and a half B calamity. You know, when you get an email, or a WhatsApp message, or something in the mail, or a parcel with your name on it, what do you do? What is it? It's for me, you get excited, happy you want to see someone sent me a message, while law sent us a message. The Quran is a message from our Creator, whatever we want to open it, what do we want to understand? What do we want to read it? So when you get an important email from a potential boss or a co co manager or university they applied for you read every single word follow these conditions? Yes, I'm gonna do
this only get in. I want to get into the university. I want to get into this job. Have you been worried about getting into Jenna?
Follow the conditions of what Allah said. You'll get it you'll make it you'll be successful. So Pamela, we have the answers. We have the answers. If things are taking us away from these things that are important, which is the Quran, that's a major problem in our lives major.
So that's why when it comes to reading the Quran, or adab etiquette among them, do not read the Quran, from your phone, or your computer or a tablet. Why?
Big distraction? Big distraction? Right? You're reading on your phone. WhatsApp message, let me just see who it is.
Let me just check my email and I read half the source, check my email. Oh, I just got a new notification on WhatsApp. Oh, you notification on Facebook. Let me check that as well. And that's why that's why for me personally, I don't have Facebook on my phone. I don't have Twitter. In fact, I don't have many things on my phone. And if some of the platform or social media platforms, I do have like Facebook, it's on my desktop. That is it. That is it. I have WhatsApp Of course you can keep it except on your phone. But I try to minimize these things, why? It doesn't distract me. A lot of people every single minute, every single hour, we'll have to check all of these platforms open up
every single application that has social media just to be updated with it. I can't miss it. Now having been set a time for the day when you check those things. Usually for me it's at night, usually, sometimes during the day, depending on the need for Facebook, that's my time where I post Usually, the pin has particular time of the day where you organize and manage your time or otherwise it's going to be all over the place. Mohammed
talking about this and he's going against obviously.
So that's a big problem. That's a big problem. So try to hold them up. It's better. And if you have to use your phone then put on flight mode.
Put it in a way, in a deactivated in a way where you're not getting all of these messages and distractions.
Now it doesn't feel like a big difference when you hold them was half a big difference fee sort of a mocha Rama model for hottie motohiro. Allah said so have sort of another and say, computer.
Say hi Sue.
I had a phone. Is that how I see PCs? He said, so have no doubt when you hold it big difference. Big difference. So just as you have time for work, you have time for your wife, otherwise you have a miserable life. You have time for your kids.
You have time for these things. Alaska is teaching us also just as you organize your dunya organize your deen. That's why for example, you can't pray except in its allocated time slots.
In salata, kanatal mina keytab makuta the word mo bootrom worked specified time specified time you can't perform Hajj accepting good hedger. You can't fast Ramadan except in the night, Islamic month. You can't pray an hour before it's due time. For example, Allah is teaching us to manage your time well manage it organize your time you will organize your life. So you have time for that have time for this being well organized in terms of our time is very, very important aspect is a fundamental principle for every Muslim in their daily mundane affairs. And that which is even more important.
Number five, and this is the last one.
The Quran is your solution for all of your needs.
And all of your deeds you should have memorized that quote by now. The Quran is your solution
for all your needs,
and all your deeds.
A lot of us know this, and we believe this.
But what about certainty levels? I'm going to inshallah to Allah with these points, raise them up a notch.
polymath Moshe ferry Rahim Allah, the great amount of Jeffrey said, Ma'am, in asila Ting dunya Illa. Viki tabula Hello her there's not a single problem in this world, except the code and has its answer has its solution.
And I'm going to give you things statements that we say as humans, and what Allah says in the Quran, and I'm going to put all of these yet and the evidences where I got them from the quotes and references inshallah, in the Student Services section for you, it's going to be hard to keep up.
For example, you say I'm a failure. Allah says, the believers are successful. You say it's too difficult. Allah says, after every difficulty there is, as you say, no one can help me. Allah says, It's upon us to help the believers. You say, No one is with me. Allah says, no doubt I'm with you. You say, I'm too sinful. Allah says he loves those who repent. You say their religion is too hard. A law says he only wants As for you, you say, victory is far away. Allah says, the victory of Allah is in the close. You say I don't have much got nothing. I'm poor. Allah says For those who believe and do righteous deeds, is a generous and ample provision. You say I feel sick. Allah says, We've sent
down the Quran as a cue and healing. You say, I feel overburdened. Allah says he will not burden a soul more than it can bear. You say I'm lost. Allah says, And He found you last. So he guided you.
You say I'm too ugly. Allah says we've certainly credit man in the best make an appearance upon Allah. You say I always go unrewarded. Allah says he will reward you in full. You say I'm always unappreciated. Allah says, your effort and striving will be rewarded and appreciated. You say I feel dishonored. Allah says, We have indeed honored the children of Adam. You say shaytaan plot is too strong. Allah says shaytans plot is indeed weak. To top it off. You may be sitting there thinking, yeah, but I've been let down in my life too many times. Allah says he never breaks his promise upon Allah. So for every problem, you have my dear brothers, for every problem you have. The answer is
the noble CRAN worker. So I put those particular statements and references in the Student Services section. Otherwise, if you need to write them today, then I've got them here.
Surely you can copy them out later. So how do we end
I gave you five virtues of the Quran. So let's end with five action points because knowledge needs to be implemented.
Number one,
learn the Quran.
We say great How?
via a daily program.
You need to open the Quran daily, daily.
memorize something even if it's more, the best deeds are those which are
continuous even if this move the Professor of Law Center at lambda y in Pella, as long as it continues, make it a habit, open daily daily program. Some people they can't go for a day without their daily routine, and it has my smoker.
Our survival and function today if I don't have right or if I don't have my caffeine hit, I don't have my V or my Red Bull or my coke or my coffee. I won't survive. I can't function. They need to have it. They didn't have that hit. Others I need to have my daily hit of entertainment. If I don't watch my favorite TV program, or * breaks loose, especially with women and Mastership A lot of us thought they were addicted. And if you're not married, wait and see wait and see. If I miss master chef, you might be miss it. How dare you
please use that I missed it.
Do you need so just as people need to have those daily hits or have you need a daily spiritual recharge? Allah called the Quran a raw water or a soul, a soul just as you need food, drink water provision for your physical soul. You also need to nourish your spiritual souls upon us rule hamin Emery he LMA Yasha amin Abadi, Allah called the Quran rule, the panelizer. So you need to nourish also, just as you nourish your physical soul, nourish your spiritual soul. That's number one. Number two, you need a teacher. underline the word need.
You need someone to check your core and you need a program with a shave with a teacher with those that whoever why on your own it's not gonna be enough. You either won't be motivated. Or if you are motivated, you're going to make mistakes you need someone to check it. Allah could have just sent the Quran to the Prophet sallallahu Sallam in one go. But no, he taught him as a widow via to breed La Silla. He'll recite to him every single year Ramadan, you need someone that you will sign on when you check it. It's not sufficient for you just to hear it. And just to look at it if you're a beginner, or even intermediate once you become expert advanced no problem that's a different story.
But you need a shave, you need a chef and even if you are expert sometimes you may overlook things as humans we make mistakes and eat someone for the smear. Very important. Number three and I've already touched upon this earlier but just for your notes, cut back
on entertainment
and manage your time
I'm not saying you can't have fun in Islam no this halal farm entertainment but just cut back and reorganize your life where it's managed well that's very important. So social media entertainment and this as long as it's highlighted no problem but do it in moderation. The old Emma would say is that a shade on hot D in color by LX II beautiful should memorize this one. When everything when something goes in excess it results in its opposite effect. Too much water is harmful. Too much medicine can kill you just eating fruits and vegetables all the time despite that they are healthy is also not good for your health. So is that the shade unhappy and forever LX II when something's
becomes in excess it results in its opposite effect
was Maxim from the
number four
you have to learn that FC
hamdulillah has so many lessons on to shared on YouTube the internet books indicated been translated we have also a do shave a shadow back result we give xfc lessons every Saturday night in the masala so much available will light at the
touch of a finger. Tip of our fingertips have access to all this knowledge that was asking you to go and Camelback, Habibi, and travel for formats are meant to get 100 as the selected No, you've got it accessible. But as we said, Why with all these knowledge accessible at our fingertips, literally, why can't we gain what they gained
upon Allah Baraka Baraka upon Allah. So if we have all this access to knowledge, and we still can't achieve what they achieved, imagine those who aren't even trying, what are they going to get? That's why their LMS said, those who give knowledge their all knowledge will give them a little bit. You give knowledge so much of your time is going to give you back a little bit, you can testify to this fact how many classes have you been to yet? How much have you retain them memorized? And the scholar said, whoever gives knowledge a little bit Guess what?
Knowledge is going to give them back. Nothing.
Nothing Habibi.
Number four. Oh, by the way, about learning to see don't say, I don't know Arabic. No, no. Allah azza wa jal said our Rama next ayah lemon cranberry Salam Allah, Al Quran. He told the Arabs the Quran, there is a lemon Allah Allah Quran. He taught the scholars the Quran, this Allah to lab the Quran. He said I lemon, Quranic after general and we said this before when Allah is when something is general in Arabic is called nacarat. What does that indicate?
broad broadness generality it's wide in scope. In other words, everyone has access to the Quran, whether you're a scholar, student, young, old, male, female, intelligent, not so don't worry heavy with there's something in the Quran for you. Even the non Muslim, I was speaking to today's adult adult, he was asking me questions about the Quran and so forth. And he says, I'm just amazed at the commitment that Muslims have towards a religion. I said, of course. I said, because we treat this religion as it should be treated. It's from Allah revelation is I'm just amazed by that with the Quran. He said, I'm amazed that six year olds can memorize this entire book. He said in
Christianity.
You know, priests can't even memorize single chapters. Even myself, I can't even memorize something in English, and that's my mother tongue to Panama. He was amazed by that. And I said, this is something which is unique to the Quran. You know, a 600 page document can be memorized, but people don't even hold Arabic as their original language. Imagine trying to memorize a book in another language like Italian, Spanish, French or Chinese. You don't speak it. How difficult would that be? But you find people who are non Arab can memorize okra, non Arabs, they memorize the whole Quran. How is that the case? A person might say yeah, that's because Arabic is easy. is Arabic. Easy. Have
you tried learning Arabic? It's really hard in the beginning really hard. And the proof of that is okay, you said Arabic is easy. That's what they can do. It will try memorizing an Arabic newspaper. Have you tried reading an Arabic newspaper? Oh my god, you get a headache after the first page. Okay, you just have to read the major headline that's enough for you. It's very hard to memorize Arabic newspapers, novels magazine. Try it very difficult. But the Quran despite its great lofty, deep meanings, Allah has made it easy when Katia sadhana analytic proof Allison you made the easy to remember. That's a miracle. Now the book has this virtue. People don't even memorize chapters pages
from the holy so called the Holy Scriptures.
So don't lose hope saying I'm too old and I can't know that allows you just to die lemon CRAN and he made it easy to remember you can do is have to try and number five. Finally, among the many things we can do with the Quran is
after learning it, preach,
teach, enrich.
This is also connected to implementation. You preach it to others you teach it to others but reach where do we get this from? Allah azza wa jal himself he said hi there but our holiness, this Quran Isabella, sometimes commonly translated as message a lot didn't say reseller that's message. Sometimes that translated as something else. What else came from better Ha.
What's better for me? Yeah, sometimes badly what is commonly translated as teach preach, but bandler is not like a lemon lemons teach. Why Bella, what's better lemon?
Lemon Olive arlin
is commonly translated close that that's national National Center on tour bus to spread. Both Bella's and Heather bellows a came from Bella Bella in Arabic means to reach girl, either Bella Hadid De Soto tiama Allah says when the soul reaches Bella hot reaches, so a lie saying how they're Bella. It's a message that needs to reach the people. The West, my dear brothers, they're not waiting for an engineering. They're not waiting for our medicine. They're not waiting for doctors. They're not waiting for our mechanics. Not they're waiting for that they don't have they're waiting for the cram. They have plenty of doctors, engineers, men is that plenty of that? Plenty of the
dunya stuff
They are waiting for alpha and they don't have that as something that we have the third and have the Quran, make it reach the masses. And that's why I'm gonna blast when he went to try and grab the Muslims back from Ethiopia. What did you tell the bishops and officials? Have they heard the Quran? If not, don't let them hear the Quran Why? He knew once they hear it, and an agenda, here's the Quran, there is a clause that will keep this lamp. They knew the power of these words, they knew it, even the confer of the time they had more justice at the time than the Comforter a Allah muster. So this is a message that needs to reach the world letters to war but you can't teach that which you
don't know. Because you can't give that which you don't have. The second law No, my dear brothers sapochnik lahoma will be handed to Allah Allah. bestow Furukawa today
