in relation to our beloved messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and his beautiful character traits is a HELOC

00:00:45--> 00:00:46

and his

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

traits

00:00:50--> 00:01:31

I want to focus in the next few minutes on a very important character trait of Allah's Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, which is giving advice to others giving the see the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in a famous Hadith, which is recorded by Muslim in his Saheeh and many other authors of Hadith. The messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said a dino undersea ha our deen our religion is considered to be sound advice our deen isn't a dino and Naseeha which means that the messenger SallAllahu sallam said religion is sincerity is nothing. Now let's see how

00:01:32--> 00:02:00

the word used in this hadith by the messenger salAllahu alayhi wa sallam is a very comprehensive term. It does not only mean advice, it means sincerity. It means willing good for other people, like the commentators of the Hadith mentioned that the word mercy refers to all good things that we desire for other people. So amongst those good things, we want good things for others, like we want good things for ourselves. So amongst the things that we want good for others is

00:02:02--> 00:02:40

good things for them in this world, and in the Hereafter, which is based on giving them some advice. So giving them sound advice is also a type of goodwill gesture. We're not giving anyone advice, because we don't like them, or we want to criticize them or we hate them or we dislike them. It's actually helping them encouraging them wanting good food. And this was the beautiful character trait of the messenger sallallahu alayhi salam, when he's when he said it verbally a dino and see what religion is sincerity isn't the Sierra, and then a companion is actually asked to complete the Hadith Well, Lemonnier rasool Allah or messenger of Allah, towards whom is this religion in a sea.

00:02:41--> 00:03:18

So the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, We love you, when you get to behave, while you're assuming he will imitate Muslim in our unknotting for Allah. Now, that does not mean the messenger Salallahu Alaihe Salam gave a list of people for whom religion is Naseeha. And at the top of the list, he said, for Allah, for God for loss of data, that does not mean that we are advising Allah I will be live which means that one thing good for Allah, which means that actually fulfilling the rights of Allah, and for his book, which is the book of Allah Quran, fulfilling the rights of the Quran and fulfilling the rights of the messenger sallallahu alayhi wasallam. And then he said the

00:03:18--> 00:03:43

general believers, fulfilling their rights and giving them counsel and advice and goodness see, and he said, lastly, where I'm at, in materials, let me know I'm the team general Muslims and the Imams of the Muslims, the heads the rulers of the Muslims and the believers. So the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said this verbally and this was his character trait as well but whenever he would see anything wrong, he would.

00:03:45--> 00:04:26

He would give sound advice, give goodness see her. And like in the other Hadith famous Hadith that he said, menorah, Amin, c'mon, current value a year will be at when one of you sees more than current evil, then for you a year will be a day. Let's want to change it with your hand which means it's an obligation if someone sees an evil, evil, whether it's an evil statement, verbal statement, which is evil or physical action, which is evil or any corruption or anything evil that a person sees money. And the moon car actually refers to something which is clearly an evil not according to my opinion, it's evil or not according to someone else's opinion. The word Moncure means like, it's

00:04:26--> 00:05:00

strange, it's opposite of my roof. The Quran calls good, my roof Yeah, more would have been an ROV way and hold on in Minecraft. So mancha here refers to something that's so strange that every Muslim every believer knows it's an evil, and then also men and these are basically some of the etiquettes of correcting the evil or enjoying the good and forbidding the evil in accordance with this statement of the messengers of Allah and who sent him and his personal practice. menorah, if you happen to see does not mean that you go and seek. You don't have to go and invest

00:05:00--> 00:05:37

To get I don't have to go and investigate, it's not our responsibility to go and investigate who is doing what evil in which place in which house in which streets and wherever in their private spaces. If you happen to see an evil which is clearly strange evil known to everyone to be bad and evil, then your first stages that for yoga you will be at you try to change that with your hands. And then if you're not able to change that with your hands, then the messenger SallAllahu sallam said it for me discerning, verbally try to change it, try to prevent that evil taking place, gift, sound, mercy, her advice to the person, that they may stop doing it. And if you can't even do that, because

00:05:37--> 00:06:14

sometimes you don't have the capability ability, because of the consequences, you are not able to change that evil neither even verbally, you can't say something, then the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that the final level is Fabio, I'll be He, then at least in your heart, consider that action or that statement, that occurrence to be evil. Think better fit in your heart was very crowded after Lehman. And that's the lowest level of demand from these three stages. This is the lowest level. So it's an obligation upon every Muslim and this was the character trait of the messenger Salallahu Alaihe Salam and the companions were the Allahu Anhu that they would change an

00:06:14--> 00:06:56

evil or they would give counsel that would give them a see how they would encourage not just changing evil but even to do encouraged to do good. Encourage people to pray, encourage people to give them charity and encourage people to have good character. Whatever they saw an opportunity to encourage to counsel to give sound advice, the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam his companions and the early Muslim scholars and the great scholars of today as well. They always never let this opportunity pass by without giving advice. However, they always implemented the basic ethics given by the messengers and Allah when he was sending him the Dawa. The council was based on the prophetic

00:06:56--> 00:07:38

way of counseling, the Tao of the prophetic way not just our messenger peace and blessings be upon him who was full of Rama and compassion for the Mirage Matthew min Allah He Linda Han, Allah says that you are gentle to the people around you. When opened the frog one lever Alby learn photo Mahalik or messenger if you are harsh, and if you are very fog burn valleys are called very harsh hearted, very aggressive, learn from them and how they would have left you and gone away from you. But it was your gentleness and your compassion for us is order Euler. Sabina robic avec hikma will know about it has an invite towards your LORD with Wisdom and with good, beautiful, beautiful

00:07:38--> 00:07:52

preaching, while no analytic hazard. And there's many there are many other verses in the Quran. So when we are counseling women we are advising when we are encouraging giving sound mercy, her advice to whoever it may be. It must be done in the

00:07:53--> 00:08:36

spirit of the prophetic manner of Dawa not just the messengers of Allah please send him our messenger sallallahu alayhi salam but all the prophets before him most are Isa Jesus Moses and all the prophets peace be upon them all will end with this one statement, which is the statement of one of the great scholars of the subcontinent, the teacher of many of our teachers. He was considered to be the grand mufti of Pakistan. Chef Mufti Mohammed Shafiq Rahim Allah who died May Allah have mercy on him the author of the famous commentary the exegesis on the Quran biographer Quran in order to and translated into English he would normally say that look in the Quran Allah says, When He speaks

00:08:36--> 00:08:56

to Musa Moses peace be upon him, and his brother Harun, peace be upon him. When he speaks to them, Allah tells them to go on, give counsel to Pharaoh, Pharaoh, someone who considered himself to be God, he used to say, hon Malala I am your Lord, the greatest Lord, and we all know Pharaoh. But when Allah

00:08:57--> 00:09:45

commanded Moses and Harun to go and speak to frown, he said to them for hula Allahu Allah and lejana when you go to give advice, and see how both of you Speak gently to Pharaoh, this is the prophet of Allah, true prophets of Allah being commanded to Speak gently to the one of the greatest enemies of Allah, who is Pharaoh. So che Houthi Mohamed Shafia Rahim Allah is to say that whenever we are talking to someone or giving advice to anyone, you are me we will not be better than Pharaoh and sorry, we will not be better than Musa and Harun peace be upon them. And the one who we are giving advice and counsel to will not be worse off than the ground Pharaoh. Yet when Allah told Musa and

00:09:45--> 00:09:59

Harun to Speak gently to Pharaoh, and then of course we from a greater extent should be speaking gently calmly to whoever we are getting counsel and advice. May Allah subhanaw taala grant us the ability to practice

00:10:00--> 00:10:19
