Aisha acidic or the Allahu anha, the beloved wife of the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. She was one of the great,
greatest one of the greatest women of Islam, and the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam loved her dearly. And one of the greatest reasons or sorry, one of the reasons of her greatness, if you look deeply
see the artery Sharabi Allahu anha,
whom will mean the Mother of the Believers as Siddiqa that truthful?
Our Isha sadaqa been to be Becca, acidic Radi Allahu Allah, the daughter of old Bukhara, severe.
One of the reasons for her greatness was
that she had a very good Islamic upbringing. She was brought up in the life in the household of Abu Bakr, Siddiq Radi Allahu Anhu.
Her father was Abu Bakr, whose name was
Abdullah has been a vehicle halfa
and his title cornea as I said, we're gonna sit deep. And her mother Omoro man, Radi Allahu anha alberca Siddiq, Radi Allahu Anhu he was called a CD the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam gave him this title of a CD. He was the truthful and also because of the fact that he believed in the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam without any hesitation, specially when the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam informed his companions about the His ascension is Surah Al Miraj. obika Siddiqui Allahu Anhu said that, if this is exactly to what the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said then I am the first one to believe in this and he was a woman that colorful Islam one of the
earliest Muslims the first person who embraced Islam obika Cydia Claudio Allahu Anhu was a very close companion of the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam a trusted a trusted companion, a close friend. Sedona Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says in one Hadith, logon to Muttahida and hollyland Let the hearth to Abubaker kalila. If I was to make a Helene, that's a specific term which means a very dear close friend Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he says that he never made anyone Halal in this world. But if he wants to make anyone Helene, it would have been a walk around the city across the Allahu Anhu. He devoted his whole life to the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, his sacrifice sacrificed his wealth and his whole life to the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and say the Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam also said that you know I have paid the debt of everyone except our brokenness and Nicola the Allahu Anhu and he used to make dua and supplicate that Oh Allah, I have not been able to pay the debt of a worker. You are the only one who enabled be able to pay his debt and please pay his debts off in the orchestra. So obika Sydney Opera, the Allahu Anhu was a very close, trusted friend of the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and as I said her mother or shout out the Allahu unhas mother, Omoro man,
mint Romania. She embraced Islam as well very early on in her life and
messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says in one Hadith mon sobre to a young Laura Illa Emirati Minal Jannetty. For young Rita OMA Roma. Anyone who wants to see a woman of paradise look at Omar oh man, these were the parents and this household and we need to set an example. Parents have a great say in how the children grow up and what they become in their later life. See the Aisha Radi Allahu anha. She herself says lamb up in about a year in Oahu, Maria de Nanea de la, about a year since I reached an age of understanding, since I reached the age of an age of understanding, I have never seen in my parents except that they were practicing religion in law, oh my god nanny been so parents
need to set the examples. They need to have good friends. Parents need to have good friends, good friends, children, look at the companions of the parents. The whole should be filled with iman with faith with the love of Allah subhanho wa Taala the love of messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and seriously brothers and sisters. When we look at the majority of the great personalities of Islam, in history, pick up any any individual majority of them, you will find that they had a greater beer at home. Their parents were great as well. Their parents were great. Many scholars see earlier on in our history, many great Xu Maha detune the folk Aha, the jurist the great aroma, they all as you see
they have their parents always call us. I mean, there are always exceptions, of course, but you find on many instances and on many occasions that the parents are such that they are great themselves and young people you know young children if they are brought up in this kind of environment where they see their parents, that they are frequenting the masjid, they don't have bad habits. They don't lie. They don't they don't have bad qualities in them. They have good noble qualities. And the house is filled with Eema with faith that the child sees the Father frequenting the masjid the mother going to the masjid, they are reciting Quran they are waking up for Salah to the Hijri that night but
young lady when Ramadan comes, people are worshipping Allah subhanaw taala. I mean, you see you small children, they'll imitate the parents. Yeah, if you have children, you know, if you are offering prayers at home, you will have a two year old baby three year old baby doing ruku and sujood. And like I haven't nephew, every time you know when his parents, they offer prayers. He goes down in sujood and Riku and loves raising the finger you know, shahada shadow Allah, Allah loves doing that. They learn from a young age, and we really need to set this example the house should be filled. Give them time, give them time.
Our children need our time. Parents need to give time to children. One of the greatest thing that one of the unfortunate things sorry, that's happening today in our communities that parents don't have time. Parents do not have time the father or the mother. They don't have time for their children. And then afterwards when they leave the path of Islam, we complain our children have left the path of Islam. And then what happens please make dua Asha, please do this is probably a black magic or someone has done this and somebody is seriously in England we have a big problem. Every problem I just gave a talk a few days ago, and the talk was about black magic. Every problem.
Everyone says it's black magic. Anything wrong at home. It's black magics vanilla, but that's what people do. People People look for excuses for I alumina Illa NAFSA. Don't blame anyone except your own self. You have to dedicate time give our children time, and give them a good Islamic upbringing. We look at the Irish allottee Allahu anha. She was brought up in this house filled with eemaan With faith with with the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam frequenting the house Subhanallah just imagine and this is why we see sometimes young children who grow up to be great people from a young age they witness shoe and order ma frequenting the houses come into the houses seriously. I'm
nothing of course I'm just a student of knowledge but my household as well personal example. since I can remember three four years of age five years of age. We had numerous shoe hanger Alama from various parts of the world frequenting. I can remember that when I was about six years of age I you know the Imam of haram in Makkah, who's still alive Shahab De La Vina Seville, he came down and I sat in his lap and he kissed me on my forehead and I used to play with his scarf and his beard, and many other shoes. I remember from the art world from the subcontinent from different parts of the world frequenting our house. This has an impact it directs your life. You know which direction to go
to, from a young age because children pick up things Irish has to do karate Allah Who and have picked up many things from her parents, and many colleges, the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would come to her to her house, and she inherited these qualities
She inherited these colleges from so you don't know Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam, she inherited the quality of suburb of patience of sacrifice of selflessness from her parents. She inherited the quality, the greatest quality Subhanallah she inherited the quality of extreme and utter and full and total devotion to Allah and his messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, She sacrificed her life and the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam married her Of course, as you know, and
and he used to love her extremely the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam used to love her after see the Hadith era, the Allahu anha she was the most beloved wife of the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and and why did he love her? Not just because she shows a virgin and she was pretty and you know, not because of that. The messenger sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sahbihi wa sallam Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. He loved our Aisha Radi Allahu anha. Why because of these qualities, these inherent qualities of summer of sacrifice of total devotion, of truthfulness, of arugula Hora suta, love of Allah and His Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam generosity. She was
extremely generous. And because Allah loved her Zahra Subhan Allah, Allah loved her. There was an incident where
I mean why Allah loved her, Allah subhanho wa Taala chose see you that you should only Allah who can have for the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. If you know the messenger SallAllahu sallam, there's a hadith in which he mentioned that he saw even before he was married, he saw a dream in which he saw Jabra Italia Salatu was Salam. And he lifted the veil and in the Hadith, he saw Arshad the Allahu anha and Jibreel the angel Jibreel peace be upon him said to Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, her the he xojo Touka for dunya will occur. This is your life. This is your wife in this life, as well as in the hereafter. So he Allah chosen for the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
This was a marriage made in heaven, literally speaking, he was made in heaven. Allah, you know made this marriage happen of the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and I shall read the Allahu anha. So the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam loved her dearly, why because she she gave preference to
preference to the ACA over the dunya you know the famous incident regarding which there are verses in the Quran, when some of the wives because of extreme poverty and you know, going through a credit crunch or financial crisis, many of the wives they ask for an increase in the nataka in expenditure. So, the messenger SallAllahu annual verses were revealed and the messenger SallAllahu wasallam addressed all his wives and he said,
Yeah, you have Nebby only as logic Allah says to the messenger, O Prophet only as virginica in container to regional higher to dunya was INETA Fatah arlena vumatel Hakuna what was guna Soran Jamila, when can tuna to didn't Allah Azza wa rasuluh Adara Akira for in Allah who are dead in masina team and couldn't earlier on Halima Oh, a wives if you prefer if you want in continue to regional higher to dunya if you want the life of this world, then have it you know Tarina you can you can have the life of this world but then you can't stay with me. This is why the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said to all his wives who Matera Hakuna will also read Quran surah hon
Jamila, I will
leave all of you I will set you free all of you in a nice way. There's no hard feelings as normally divorce should be. And then he said wine continue to didna la hora Sula, but if you want Allah and His Messenger, when continue to written Allahu wa Hara, and you want the real life, the eternal life life of the hereafter, then you need to struggle in this life, this that you need to sacrifice, you have to give a bit of sacrifice for in Allah who are dealing with Center team and going around Alima because Allah has verily
gathered great reward and stored great reward and prepared great reward for the Center for the good duel doers in the orchestra.
The messenger SallAllahu wasallam first went to Arusha Radi Allahu anha and informed her of this and said, You know what, don't make your decision go and ask your parents first. And then come back with with the decision do you want to stay with me? Or you don't want to? She said Yeah, Rasul Allah. Is this something I need to ask my parents about? Without our charity of course.
Hola, hola. Sula, and I prefer to give preference to Allah and His messenger and after over this life, but she said you know what? Please don't really my answer to the otherwise if you if you go if they ask you what I said, because she loved the messenger. So Allahu Allah is so much that she wanted him for herself completely. So she was hope
mean that they will say something else so he leaves all of them. But that's natural no problem of course. So, the message is that Allah when you say look, I won't tell them but if they do ask me then you know, I will have to tell them the truth I have been sent to make ease. So anyway, all the wives chose Allah and His messenger and Ankara. But this shows that they gave preference to sacrifice and poverty. They lived a life of poverty are Aisha Radi Allahu Allah despite being married to the most prominent figure, seriously, listen to this. The most prominent figure like nowadays, you know, many people want to marry you know, prominent figures, yet because of the wealth
because of the riches in many
instances. So, he was the most prominent figure yet despite that, the leader of the Muslims, the leader of the Muslims,
and the leader of Medina and the Rasul of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, despite that she lived a life of extreme poverty. And she underwent hunger and thirst to the point that there's a hadith where she says that three months would pass by and we would not have anything to eat at home except date and water. Subhan Allah, just imagine living in the house of the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, because the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he preferred poverty, over riches overreaches, and he was poor by choice, remember who it was not enforced upon him. Allah subhanho wa taala, sent to the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam if you want to, we will make the whole two
mountains of our herd and transfer them into golden give it to you, you can have the riches of the world. But he chose poverty, over wealth and riches, he'll like to live a life of poverty, of humility, of humbleness, and he made sure that he his wives as well have this quality within them. And he so this this is the type of life Irish doesn't do karate Allah Allah lived and this in this there's a lesson as well for our sisters, that yes, of course. We need to make ends meet. But you know, if there's if there's a struggle in life, then remember this life is short and brief. Remember the hardships and the poverty? The Companions Radi Allahu Anhu I'm the messenger sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam, the wives of the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam went through the Messenger of Allah why do you send them said used to love our inshallah the Allahu Allah has so much he said falu are Isha Allah Nisa II got formerly a 3d artist at the time this is in the area of normal Buhari, the preference for the virtue of our Isha over and above all the women is like the virtue of a food called fried, above all other types of food. I don't know if you guys know what three days but 3d is like you know, when you have a bit of curry and you take a bit of Chowpatty into pieces and you eat it.
The messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam preferred ferried all above all different types of food. And the reason was because that eat was considered to be a complete type of meal. And hence the resemblance that are Aisha Radi Allahu anha. She was an example. She was an example of what a Muslim woman should be like seriously. Now messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. There are many, many, you know other instances that show that His love and His affection for our Chateau de la junta and also one very important area of her life that we need to learn from ALLAH SubhanA wa Dyana blessed her with great insight, great intelligence, eloquence she had she had an extremely sharp and strong
memory. And she surpassed and excelled and
went ahead of most of the companions, men and women included seriously, men and women male Sahaba and the female Sahara Pradhan Allah here at image Marine. She surpassed many companions in scholarship in intelligence in learning Shimadzu hurry, there's a great hack this ATAR bury him I was Zuhdi he says no Jumia primo nurse equally him well as Raji Nabi SallAllahu, alayhi wa sallam for curnutt Arusha was the was the art home element. If you want to gather on one side, the knowledge the scholarship, the understanding of all the people including the all the wives of the messenger, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and on one side you put the knowledge of Arusha, her
knowledge would excel and supersede their knowledge in sunnah telemovie. Abu Musa Ashanti Ravi Allahu Anhu the great companion, he says, What are the Allahu Anhu mashallah Alena as herbal Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Hadith to our Isha Illa Arjuna into her Minho element
We never will be stuck with a hadith when we do not understand something in a hadith of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, we would go to artigianale Allahu anha and we would find by had some knowledge regarding that hadith she would make things easy for us all who have been Zubayr Radi Allahu anhu, the nephew of Arusha, so DECA and a student of Arusha so these are the Allahu anha says Moto E to our hidden Bill Qurani what have you forgotten? What are we learning? What are we fixing? What are we sharing? Bala? Between me and what are the Hadith in Arab? What an SOP mean? Arusha? I don't know anyone who is more knowledgeable than Irish or the Allahu Anhu in regards to the
knowledge of the Quran, regarding the knowledge of Hadith regarding the knowledge of the lawful and unlawful in regards to the knowledge of fic in regards to the knowledge of
poetry, SHA in regards to the knowledge of medicine, in regards to the knowledge of the theory, the history of the Arabs, and the history of the unsub the lineage of the Arabs. I don't know anyone who has more knowledge than Irish on the Allahu anha. In these matters, she used to be from the Mujahideen Sahaba she used to give fatwa in a time of war in the time of Abu Bakr and Omar Radi Allahu anha she used to be moved here. Seriously you can have you know, like yesterday somebody asked me a sister. Can women be moved here? I said of course I shall have the Allahu Mourinho was a greatest moved here. We need we need female with tears in his time and seriously sisters have a lot
of talent and they have this zeal I don't know how it is here but in the UK you know when we whenever we have events and causes we see normally cross the country sisters you see more you know mashallah having this the zeal to come and learn. We have a course for like two days, three days a week, we'll have like 200 Brothers, but it'll be 400 Sisters, we always have more sisters. They have this this zeal to learn so excelling knowledge, and this is the Sunnah of Arusha, the Allahu anha, even medicine she knew she had extreme amount of knowledge in regards to medicine. She also pointed out to make mistakes of many companions are the Allahu Anhu. She was eloquent Kenneth fussy Hassan
eloquence. She used to be a very good public speaker. So usually it's documented in the books. She gave a hoot about once in amongst 1000s of companions Radi Allahu Anhu. She used to know poetry. She used to love poetry. She memorized like many, many aside and lines of poetry from Jerry Lee from the days of ignorance and earlier on. So she was
very knowledgeable and had a very sharp memory and very intelligent another great quality of hers was honesty. And this is why she is called a Siddiqa. Honesty, she was truthful, whatever is here, it's on the mouth. She never has to be cunning or sly or anything like that. She was very to the point nice, pleasant, but to the point and honest, her student one of her students, she had many, many students and many companions, great companions, males, however, the Allahu Anhu would come and learn from her one of the companions or one of the students, masu who is a tabby Nora companion. He says, Whenever he relates a Hadith from her whenever he relates a Hadith from her we find this in
books or Hadith, her Hadith in Bukhari sahih of Imam Al Bukhari and Sahih Muslim and elsewhere in many books of Hadith. Whenever he relates a Hadith from her, he doesn't just say Asha will not mean the Mother of the Believers. He says, Every time and each time had the 30 or so deeper to even to sit deep Habiba to Habibollah and mobile to him in focus. So my word, I have been informed by the Siddiqa the truthful, the daughter of acidic the truthful Habiba to Habibollah the beloved of the Beloved of Allah Allahu Bara. TermInfo is somewhat the one who's
from the heavens, whom Allah subhanaw taala considered to be innocent and you know, the whole episode and the event regarding which Allah has mentioned the Quran, she was extremely humble, never arrogant, should we she would weep greatly in her later latter part of her life because of certain errors of judgment that she considered she made. She made it was clear that when I pass away, please don't bury me in the Rohde where the messenger sallallahu alayhi salam is buried because I made many mistakes and I don't feel right that I should be buried there. I'm a very sinful person bury me in the genital Bukhari. She was humble she had extreme intelligence and extreme amount of knowledge yet
mutawa they are humble, great o'clock and character she had she never used to back by it. It's documented. Rarely will she back by never backed by she was generous. Once 100,000 dinar came to her she gave it away in charity before before the night. She was a great worship of Allah subhanaw taala spending her night in a yarmulke hatred Salah she used to wake up at night with the messenger Salallahu Alaihe Salam and later on in her life as well. She used to worship Allah she used to constantly fast and these are the kinds of examples brothers and sisters we need to take specially the sisters from the great
