00:00:04 --> 00:00:54
			When I Salim Salam was sent to Beirut, Israel, and after he was taken up to Allah azza wa jal, and
many people changed the true teachings of Asa, ignominy, am Jesus, the son of Mary. And so
Christianity was born after a Silas salaam, and it spread into different lands and many sects, many
groups also were formed. Christianity spread in that land by they with a ruler by the name of
Abraham. Abraham was the new ruler there. And he also wanted people to become Christian and Abraha.
He knew of the Kaaba and he wanted to build something of his own. In Abyssinia. You wanted to build
something like the Kaaba there. And he did, but it was a Christian version. Right. It was like the
		
00:00:54 --> 00:01:19
			Cofer version of the kava SubhanAllah. And he basically he built this big cathedral and he called
the alkyl lace alkalis. One day and Arab. As we said, Islam wasn't in Arabia. It wasn't in Mecca.
Yet. This was before the time of the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam, the Prophet Muhammad
still wasn't born yet, but he was about to be born.
		
00:01:20 --> 00:02:05
			A man from Mecca, ended up going to Abyssinia and he saw alkalis he saw this big cathedral and he
knew that they were trying to compete with the car but he didn't like that very much. So what does
he do? He does something that it's even rude enough for me to I can't even say it. Basically he went
to the toilet inside alkalis and not in the bathroom of alkalis he did it on the floor inside.
Imagine someone went into inside a masjid and did a number two right there in the middle stuck for
Allah right? How disgusting is that? Not only did he do that, he took his the Jessa and he wiped it
took you know, he's feels and he walked all over the walls and he ran away. Oh, you want to compete
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:17
			with us? He's a he's a gift right? From the from the bottom, from the bottom of my heart but from
somewhere else right? He right? He gave him a gift from from the love of my soul.
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:24
			He can give a ran away. Right? So of course, Abraham when he came
		
00:02:27 --> 00:03:06
			a new paint job. Right, what's going on? He was fuming. He was crazy. Alright, he went nuts after
that, you guys that is it. We're going to destroy the Kaaba. Now he wanted to destroy the cabinet
from day one. But why didn't he? Because back then they even had politics, right? It was against
international law. You can't just go and destroy people's, you know, objects and landmarks of
worship. They'll send armies towards you, right, I'll kill you for that. So he wanted to do all
along, but this was like it just tipped him over. Right? This was like the thing that he now he has
an excuse. So if any, if you know if ASIO or ABS want to stop him and what are you trying to do,
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:55
			mate? Okay, they did this to my, you know, my version of the car, but I'm gonna destroy their
version. Okay, you can go through okay. All right, you're good to go. Right? So, he goes that is
going to destroy the Kaaba panela. So he gathers an army. And not just any army, an army of
elephants, an army of elephants. This was unheard of before, never been done before. They used to
have army of soldiers of horses, army of camels, army of caravans army of elephants. Abraham was the
first to do this. And an elephant back then you say Oh, no big deal. Elephant right now, it wasn't
Dumbo. Habibi wasn't something that is friendly. And the circus tricks, those army elephants.
		
00:03:56 --> 00:04:38
			You know, they mean big business. In a you you anger an elephant. And by the way, elephants have an
amazing memory. It's true. Elephants do have an amazing memory. So when someone says that that
person has the memory of an elephant, that's a compliment. Like if someone says you've got the
memory of an elephant, that's over you called Elephant bro. And then take as an mockery, they're not
teasing you actually complimenting you because elephants have outstanding memories. So elephants in
war is like that was like the ancient form of a tank, or a tank taken flat in a building to flooding
people, or that's what the elephant could do. So an army of elephants wasn't easy. This was a big
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:59
			thing. This was hard. So he comes with his army of elephants all the way from Yemen, or all the way
from Amazonia rather all from Abyssinia and Ethiopia. All the way coming to Mecca Laquan. So it's a
long journey and they had a gave the Arabs in Mecca time
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:03
			I'm to this news came to them and time to prepare
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:45
			at the head of this army was a big elephant by the name of Muhammad Believe it or not, alright,
believe it or not had the name of moved to Panama. So Abra has army actually made it to the
outskirts of Mecca outskirts of Mecca. So if you've ever traveled outside of Sydney and you see all
these mountains and the highways and then you see a sign, you are now leaving Sydney. Okay, go back
to your local government area because you've broken the lockdown rule. Okay, if you see the signs or
when you're coming back Welcome to Sydney. So that's that we're on the outskirts right on the
outskirts of Mecca. Are they about to come in who knows if they vaccinated or not? Right? Okay,
		
00:05:45 --> 00:06:10
			magic all those jokes are gone now Mr. Visual economics. So they're going to enter the game to enter
or they're going to check our our stock roster, or they're gonna QR code. Okay, I'll stop. I'll stop
with the dad jokes. They're going to enter. And as they're entering, there were some shepherds
grazing on the outskirts of Mecca, and they had some sheep there, and camels and so forth.
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:28
			Abra had the sides decides to take 200 of these camels, are we going to demolish the Kaaba? Yeah,
Allah we might as well take the camels as well. Your love war booty, they're ours. They took they
took 200 camels that belonged to have the Muttalib because of the multiple singles
		
00:06:33 --> 00:07:05
			The grandfather of the Prophet Muhammad Salah lessons Abdullah Talib, and his name wasn't really
Abdulmutallab. He actually earned that name as a nickname kept mean slave of McCollum, because
people thought he was a slave of politics. Okay, he's running with Shaybah because when he was born,
he had white hair shaved by means old men. When he was born, he had white hair Subhanallah amazing.
But he was nicknamed Abdul Natale because he was always with him and people thought he was his
slave.
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:54
			So other than what the Liberals the grandfather of Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu sallam. So he 200 of
these camels was taken and that's a big deal. You know, a camel is not a fun ride, just you know, to
go on at the age show. No, camel was very expensive. And you can use a camel to ride just like a
car. Camels can give you milk, they can give you food. They can also be used for medicine. And they
give birth slug manufacturing other cars. Okay, it's like a small convenience store, pharmacy,
automobile. You know, basically, in one, it's all of the in one. So to have one camel was expensive
enough valuable. And he had 200 that was stolen. So he hears of this. And Abraham and his army, they
		
00:07:54 --> 00:08:24
			stay at the outskirts, or they have come close, and now they've entered. And they're right. On the
you know, on the mountains of where Mecca is and they're about to descend and they're resting there.
And they basically showing the Arabs of Mecca that we mean business here. And so I'm the Muslim he's
of them. He sees them. He organizes a meeting with Abraham Abraha welcome. welcomed him. Alan.
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:26
			Come right in.
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:35
			So at the Multilib goes to this meeting. You can imagine the gods are there. Okay, who are you?
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:42
			Okay, who's up? Oh, I've organized a meeting with your leader. Abra
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:52
			Abra. You organize a meeting with this guy? Yes, yes. Bring him in. Bring him in. Okay, you're good
to go sir. He goes in
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:55
			Abraha sees Abdul Muttalib
		
00:08:58 --> 00:08:58
			and he shocked
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:42
			he sees a man of dignity honor he had haber you know some people you seen you're like wow that
person they look important. What Abdullah Abdullah was a man who had haber about him when he went to
enter a room people will look at him with respect other people when they walk in whatever it is,
what a schmuck what a clown. But I'm gonna tell him when he would walk into a room people would sit
up just like sometimes when someone important enters you know you sit up straight maybe you're
slouching maybe on your phone right and that's how you should be by the way boys and girls were mama
Ababa come home set up in a you should sit up go greet them you know if you're on a device put it
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:56
			down. If you're doing something put it down. Okay, go to mama Baba kiss their hand. They come home
kissed the hands down I call Mama Salman icon Baba. How are you? How's, you know we missed you. This
is this is the respect we should give to our parents. So
		
00:09:58 --> 00:09:59
			Abraham says and
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:06
			And he immediately is filled with all because this man. So what does he do?
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:15
			Abraham was sitting like they had a temporary, like thrown everywhere they would go they would take
his throne with them and he would sit on it.
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:24
			And so he comes down after throne. And he sits on the floor with Abdullah Talib Subhan Allah.
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:40
			So he was asked, What are you doing? He said, This is a man who has respect and honor. He can't sit
on the throne with me because I'm the king. But I need to respect him. So I'll come down and sit on
his level Subhanallah
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:46
			so I asked him, What do you want?
		
00:10:47 --> 00:11:03
			Abu Talib says your men, your cronies, your henchmen? One $800 henchmen. These guys? They took my
cameras, or you took my cameras. 200 of them. In fact, they belong to me. I want them back. That's
my request.
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:09
			Abdullah Abdullah had to pick his jaw up from the ground.
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:28
			What? We're coming to destroy your cabin, we're coming to destroy your heritage. We're coming to
destroy your religion. We're coming to destroy your people your town and all he asked me for a
measly camels. He said when you walked in, I held you up so high, I had so much respect for you. But
now.
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:33
			Now, you know, now I lost all respect for you.
		
00:11:34 --> 00:12:06
			He says How could you ask me this? As a motor it looked him dead in the eye. And he said I am the
master of my camels. I need to take care of them. Allah is the master of his house, the car but he
will take care of a panel. This was Abdul Muttalib even though it wasn't a Muslim. This was his
answer and answer of honor. And answer Subhanallah they unfortunately may sometimes Muslims don't
even think that way. So what could I say to that? He's like, all right.
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:13
			Allah crony yellow minion, give him his comes back. All right, take your cameras. We're gonna
destroy the carbon.
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:20
			So he have the muscle it goes back out to his people. And people what happened? What happened to us?
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:38
			is like, we have to evacuate this. Tell us what did you do? How did the meeting go? Did he give us a
grant? What happened? Is he gonna let us off? What's going on? Okay. He says, I asked for my
cameras. And he's gonna agree he's agreed to give him back people.
		
00:12:40 --> 00:13:07
			People looked at him Whoa. He's coming to destroy a cabin. All he did was asked for cameras. What
kind of a leader are you? Alright, one moment. He's the his ultimate or the biggest chef, the
biggest, the best of the best. And next minute is the lowest of the low like get out of here. What
have you done, we destroyed he has everyone evacuate, that's all go to the mountains. Allah is the
master of the Kaaba, and Allah is a lower protected. So they go to the outskirts and they're looking
on
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:10
			what happens next?
		
00:13:11 --> 00:14:00
			Abraha now is ready to attack and get his army. He gets the elephants right. And you might be
asking, how come Allah Azza wa Jun has allowed them to come all the way into Mecca. Quran Allah have
destroyed them when they were in Abyssinia. Of course, Quran Allah has seized them with this
fundamental or made the earth swallow them up or earthquake or volcano or destroy them in any other
way. Of course, why would Allah allow them to transgress? Why would allow them Why would Allah allow
them to make their way to Mecca and not destroy them? Yet? Because sometimes Allah azza wa jal
number one out of His mercy gives a chance for even a disbeliever or a wrongdoer to come back to
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:05
			him. Allah gives you a chance. Sometimes the person that's wrong that's wrong is wrong. They realize
they've stuffed up.
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:12
			They make Toba and ask Allah to forgive them. And Allah azza wa jal, Allah is Rama he gives you that
change.
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:50
			But also the opposite is true a lot sometimes no knows that a person is so evil is so evil like
frown that he lets them go to do more harm more haram. Why? So it's worse for them on the Day of
Judgment. You see, sometimes a teacher remember at school, a teacher, you know, sees that little
bratty kid on the playground is slapping this kid teasing that kid pinching that kid and the teacher
is recording everything Okay, keep going keep going. And you know, the kid jumping around like the
biggest holies you've ever seen, and then the bell rings in case thinks he's off the hook. I
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:55
			got my fair share of being a schmuck tonight.
		
00:14:56 --> 00:15:00
			I'm good with to go yella time to muck up in Mr. Vickery.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:41
			This class, right and the teacher coming, right, this is what you did, and then call us expelled or
suspended whatever the case is, the kid thinks he's getting away until he gets that report card
slapped in his face at the end of the year. All of those marks all of his detention and everything's
mentioned. Right? And he maybe he gets that report and as even take it home. Is that, is that
embarrassed? Or is that afraid of what's going to happen? All right, and you can even imagine,
sometimes a dog on a leash, a dog on a leash. So if you give that dog 100 meter, length of leash 100
meters, as opposed to one meter, one meter, does the smallest thing
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:53
			that can't do anything. Right? Then you give that dog 100 meter leash, what's it, what's it gonna
do? It's gonna run, run, run, run, run, and until it hits 100 meters, what's gonna happen?
		
00:15:54 --> 00:16:13
			It's gonna rip out its neck, it's gonna kill it instantly. And that's what happens to the likes of
frown, to the likes of the bliss to the likes of the gel. And sometimes even people. They think that
oh, I'll do what I want. I'll do what I want. Does every sin under the sun so much haram? Until
		
00:16:14 --> 00:17:02
			that leash runs out, and it's harmless for that person, you see? So if Allah is allowing you to do
haram now, maybe it's time to stop, reflect and repent, make Toba now before it's too late, before
Allah azza wa jal destroys us completely and exposes us May Allah protect us all. So the likes of
Allah Allah allows them allows them right to spend his money, to gather his resources to get his
army to do the training to get the weapons until what's going to happen. It's going to flop in his
face, just like what happened to the US, just like America, they spent trillions of dollars in
Afghanistan and in Iraq and in other countries, trillions upon trillions in debt. They spent their
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:18
			money in the weapons and soldiers so many people died of theirs. Why for what in the end they lost
they lost what a waste. They say Allah allows allows allows you said but what about the Muslims who
died Jana and shahada Inshallah, you see, it is great for them to
		
00:17:19 --> 00:18:00
			so Allah azza wa jal sometimes allows even an oppressor to get away. Why? Because in the end, this
humiliation, in the end is humiliation. Like what's happening now we see Subhanallah with some
people and the government and what they're doing to the people, you know, the oppression that
they're causing. And then what happens, people are getting investigated for corruption, and they get
humiliated here, humiliated there, right. So, yes, we ask Allah azza wa jal to lift oppression from
us. And we speak up when people oppress us and do the wrong thing. But remember that Allah has
regents Claire, is always the best for us, even if we don't understand it.
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:22
			So Abraha was Army. Okay, ready to fight ready to send it to destroy the cabin? The people there on
the mountains and looking on what's gonna happen no popcorn for them, they freaking out. But let's
get popcorn back at home. They're freaking out what's going to happen? Abraham tells the big one the
big elephant Muhammad attack. What does it do? It sits down.
		
00:18:24 --> 00:19:07
			anticlimax attack. Nothing. He takes it what's wrong? Takes it left it goes left takes a right it
goes right takes it backwards to Abyssinia it goes backwards. Attack forward to the carbon Nothing.
What's going on? Subhan Allah. It was mentioned Allahu Allah this is correct or not but one of the
Arabs before he fled, he fled to the mountains. He whispered in his ear. And he said this is the
house of Allah destroyed. Either by to Allah don't destroy it. Now when we say Baitullah doesn't
mean our lives there of course, right? This when we say it's a way of honoring say now the line move
further. It's the fire of Allah. Okay. So what it means is the way of honoring like Kitab Allah
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:20
			rasool Allah See, so we say, Baitullah, it doesn't mean Allah lives there, but it's an honored
house. That's what it means. So it knew this is the house of Allah McCain to attack Subhan Allah.
		
00:19:21 --> 00:19:59
			I'm not going to attack and that's why when the profile is Islam entered Medina, entered Medina,
sorry, not entered Medina. Rather when he was on a an expedition, and the journey, I believe, or one
of the stories from the surah don't quote me, but one of the camels would not move will not move.
And so they were trying to force it. And the Prophet said, or trucker leave it habits or her habits
will feel the one who has kept this camel here is the same one who, who kept the elephant the
meaning Allah. Allah has left has has restrained it
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:46
			He's the same Allah Who restrained Of course, the elephant in this case upon so old and go, so what
does he do? He's now going to send his army, okay? With with Muhammad or not, first we're gonna go,
they enter the area where the Cabaye is to try and destroy it. But Allah sends an army of his own.
They came with an army, Allah came with a better army, even though the army Subhanallah was much
smaller in size, but it's not about size. It's not about numbers. It's not about quantity. So no
matter how big your weapons or how many weapons you have, or how much money you have, it's about
having Allah as urgent as you're willing. As your guardian you protect them. That's all that counts.
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:55
			Just do the right thing. And Allah azza wa jal will provide a way out from means that you didn't
expect.
		
00:20:56 --> 00:21:24
			Allah azza wa jal says whoever has stepped out of Allah yet as Oklahoman HIFU Lattissima law provide
for you. If you have Taqwa of Allah, you just you're always worried about what Allah thinks of you.
You watch what you say, what will you do? Allah Allah was Allah azza wa jal will provide a way out
for you. Even if you don't expect that from means you don't expect us of home. The Battle of the
Trench when the Muslims of 3000 or begins 10,000 of the kuffaar
		
00:21:26 --> 00:22:09
			and negotiations failed. What happened? A man from the confirm from them, he defected they became
Muslim. Allahu Akbar. Yeah, it's the worst time to become Muslim. Right? The worst time that Muslims
are attacked, almost gonna get defeated. They're almost gonna be crushed. Yeah, they were scared so
much. They couldn't even relieve themselves. They couldn't even answer the call of nature and go to
the bathroom. That's how terrified they were. Didn't look like the best time to become Muslim. They
become Muslim. He says, I'm here to serve you your Rasul Allah. And the Prophet said, go to your
people, and try and infiltrate from within. And he did. He went and he convinced others from within
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:39
			and the sight of the enemy. So powerful, they deny it was almost a measure. So he's one of us. So he
went to the kuffaar and he helped the Muslims and then didn't even realize Allah will send help. A
low provide a way out, as long as we have Taqwa. That is the key to our success. dako So, Allah azza
wa jal sends an army of his own what was his army? An army of birds, birds, and of all animals.
Imagine I told you,
		
00:22:41 --> 00:22:57
			you were going to fight these people. And you can have any armor you want. Choose an animal, which
is a panther or the Black Panther. You will choose maybe, you know, spiders redbacks you will choose
scorpions you might choose thanks, lions, tigers, right?
		
00:22:58 --> 00:23:31
			I'll choose birds, please. Birds. Birds are so friendly. I keep them as pets. And the biggest bird
you're gonna find is Big Bird from Sesame Street and even that bird is friendly birds. By Subhan.
Allah is trying to show us that they can with this big creature looking with the small creature and
why birds because Camerata Dino to them, you get what you deserve. You are dealt with how you deal
with others. They came with the creature. They came with an animal Allah came with an animal we see
that a lot could have destroyed them with fundable.

			Lm Tara K for five Abu cambios humbly feed Allah says,
		
00:23:37 --> 00:23:44
			Did you not see how Allah dealt with the people of the elephant is how we feel. Notice Allah didn't
say
		
00:23:46 --> 00:24:07
			another word for the companions of the elephant, a lock on the companions of them. Allah didn't say
masters of the elephant. Allah didn't say controllers have the elephant. Allah did him say army of
the elephants, right? Allah said the companions of the elephant. Because Allah is in control. You
see, a lot didn't say masters or controllers of the elephants. Allah is in control us how will feed
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:59
			Allah say did you say how did you see how notice Allah didn't say? What the * is the difference?

Surah don't feel teaches us modern day warfare in a Call of Duty. Well, if you want to learn about
		
00:26:40 --> 00:27:26
			Call of Duty and modern day warfare, sorta to feel teacher, he said fighter jets even till today,
what do they do? They put them on ships in the ocean. Why? Because it's easier number one to attack
from the ocean. People can't attack out on sea. You can't send an army out to sea unless you send
the ship. And it's also easy to refuel. Because if the ship is coming from another country or the
planes coming from another country all the way there it's hard to go back and forth right but it's
easy to review. Wow awkward so even in the Quran was teaching us modern day, aspects of war by Iran
Abu Dhabi, they came in multitudes and I'm going to show you a video of how this actually looks like

00:28:13 --> 00:28:21
			It's a parallel you can imagine this coming towards us having starlings flock together to create the
most astonishing aerial display in nature.
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:30
			But the whole sky was filled with this fire on MLB flux flux.
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:38
			It has people staring you can imagine that people staring in shock as they saw the
		
00:28:39 --> 00:28:53
			reality the birds react 13 times faster than any person retirement and exact synchrony with their
nearest neighbors. But the tiniest delay in their reflexes helped create these mesmeric waves in the
sky.
		
00:29:06 --> 00:29:09
			Until recently, could only be seen
		
00:29:11 --> 00:29:38
			as a good styling so if you ever want to look at those birds in detail, you can just type in
starlings. And your your parents can show you but you can imagine the whole sky was filled with
these birds and they came in flocks. And what did they do? Tell me him the hedgehog terminology.
They would throw at them lunch at them. That to me him Rama in Arabic means to throw or Rama in
Arabic also means
		
00:29:39 --> 00:29:57
			in archery, it's called a reminder. Okay. Rama in Arabic is also used for archery. And so when you
think archery What do you think you think? A target right, a target. So every man from the army
Abraha had like
		
00:29:58 --> 00:29:59
			a target on his head.
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:44
			So each birds upon Mark came targeting each individual like a homing missile, otherwise they
couldn't run away. Each bird was dedicated. This bird gets that person. This bird gets that person's
a problem behind Darla minster gene. These were stones that were actually they came from Jahannam
itself Jahannam itself Allahu Akbar, and in Doha best said, when it would hit that disbeliever from
the Ali Baba, it was actually penetrate the skull and come out through their back, they will go
right through them. Why? Because in as we said, archery, when you think of archery, you're not
shooting at a close range true, you're shooting at a distance that targets far away. And so if it's
		
00:30:44 --> 00:31:11
			high up acceleration due to speed, it will come so fast, faster than a bullet because even bullets
get stuck in a person sometimes they get lodged when a person is shot with a bullet right but this
was so it was so powerful when right through them. There are many him behind jollity messages of
Homer for Johanna home, Allah transform the remember we said gyla in Arabic means to transform
completely for gyla home, he made them not the elephant's.
		
00:31:12 --> 00:31:39
			Allah says how I will feel the companions of elephant Allah didn't destroy the elephants. How do I
want to deploy elephants have to do the animals about destroying the people of the elephant? For
Johanna home? Caspian? makhoul. Allah made them like eaten up vegetation. Like they were cool. They
were eaten, you know, an animal, what does it do? It eats the vegetation, it eats the plants. It's
the straw, whatever it is, and then a diet that chews it.
		
00:31:40 --> 00:31:45
			As well as it, it stomach, digests it, and then it comes out the other end.
		
00:31:46 --> 00:31:48
			When it comes to the other end, that's totally
		
00:31:49 --> 00:32:30
			disgusting. That's what they look like. They looked like they were eaten up and digested and
excluded from animals Allahu Akbar. That's what they looked like. And the animals of the elephants
were going crazy. Because they were scared, they were terrified from all these birds. So that was
trampling all over now killing all sorts. Haberfield Allahu Akbar, et Cie. They're not the masters
of the elephant because I couldn't control the elephants. If the masters are controlling the
elephant or the irony Subhanallah they use they thought the elephants will be used to help them and
they didn't they destroyed them. They thought they can use the elephant to destroy the Kaaba and the
		
00:32:30 --> 00:33:16
			elephants destroyed them instead. Allahu Akbar, Allah home Caspian Michael, how powerful is Allah?
Well, how powerful and amazing is Allah? You must have missed the big fall right? That's a lot of
detail. In bow the sort of started Allah said, LM Torah gave a father a book and that's how I gave
them a case means out. And when you say how, asking for details, Allah gave you so much details.
Allah didn't say LM Tala. In a Do you not say Mafalda? What did Allah do? What did Allah do? A lot
destroyed them their end of the surah Allah didn't say what Allah asked how and how gives you
detail? Subhan Allah amazing what an amazing school next time you read this surah you can read it
		
00:33:16 --> 00:33:58
			with understanding, it can have a different effect on you. And you can read it with the short now in
your Salah. And that's why boys and girls, it's very important. If you're praying and you're not
concentrating, you're praying and all you could think of is what you're going to watch on Netflix
next, and what game you're going to play. And the funny joke, Mr. Misery said, or what am I going to
have for dessert? Well, maybe it's because we're not understanding what we're reciting. So,
understanding the sower and the meanings would help us in our Salah. So surely you have a better
understanding now of Surah tilled field. And last question, why would Allah protect the Arabs when
		
00:33:58 --> 00:34:30
			they should, again, the Kufa they won't even Muslims yet, Allah protect them. Allah was in
protecting them. Allah was protecting the Kaaba, his house is a difference. But Allah is so just
that if a people are non Muslim, and they are going to be oppressed, Allah Allah does not accept
that. Allah does not accept oppressing even non Muslims either because he's a non Muslim, I can
steal from him, I can hurt him nanananana Allah azza wa jal will allow a nation to prosper, to
flourish, to do well.
		
00:34:31 --> 00:34:59
			If it is just if it's fair, even if it's a disbelieving nation, as even Taymiyah, the great scholar
said, so we should be fair, we should be fair as Muslims, we were fair to Muslims and non Muslims.
Being fair having this quality of an adult and justice is a quality of Islam and the quality of the
Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu sallam. So Abra has Amin were destroyed Abraha was no more and this year
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:41
			that occurred the year of the elephant was the exact year that the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu
sallam was born Allahu Akbar. It's as if Allah azza wa jal is giving this as a warning to the world.
Don't you dare mess with the messenger. Don't you dare mess with Mecca. They were destroyed in the
ye of the elephant who was called because back then they didn't have the numbers that we use today.
2020 2021 they would identify yeas based on major events. Something big happened or that's the you
have the elephant. Imagine the elephant ran through your house for man I'll never forget that year
that's the year the elephant ran through my house. So that was the prophet muhammad sallallahu
		
00:35:41 --> 00:36:08
			sallam was born. And it was an amazing, the baraka of Rasul Allah and needle did humanity realize
that the greatest man the greatest messenger, the greatest human to ever walk the planet was to come
with prophethood to come with the final revelation and inshallah in the future we can take more of
these amazing stories I hope you enjoyed Starry Night story I was having feel Zack malachite and was
