Brothers and sisters Welcome to another Live edition of our program, Guardians of the pie. So today's episode is number 276, in the

00:01:10--> 00:01:24

Blissett seas of Guardians of the pious, and it is the first in chapter number 66. This chapter which is known as the Abu Dhabi, the article Komori Larijani OMA accord was

00:01:25--> 00:01:43

the recommendation of visiting the graveyard for men, and what is recommended for the visitor to recite their the etiquettes of visiting the graveyard. The first Hadith in the chapter is Hadith number

00:01:45--> 00:01:46

500 and ad

00:01:48--> 00:02:11

narrated wired properly Allahu Anhu call Carla Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam contoura Hi to come. And zeolitic Kobushi fazool Ruha are our who Muslim? Buffy reweighting Thurman Arada and Ural Cobra fell years old in a hurry to the corona Shara.

00:02:12--> 00:02:39

In this hadith bowrider may Allah be pleased with him they rated that the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him said in the past, I forbade you from visiting the graveyard now resumed visiting them. In another narration, he said peace be upon him, whoever wants to visit a cemetery let him do so because it reminds us of the Hereafter. And

00:02:40--> 00:02:44

in another narration, it reminds you of death.

00:02:46--> 00:02:52

From these different narrations, we understand the following facts. Fact number one,

00:02:54--> 00:02:56

there is something called abrogation.

00:02:57--> 00:03:13

An abrogation is stated in the Quran in surah Al Baqarah man and stuff I mean, I didn't see her not to hire a minha obviously her LM Talon and Allah Allah Cooley, che and Kadir.

00:03:15--> 00:03:22

And this area means whenever we abrogate an area of the Quran, a verse of the revelation,

00:03:24--> 00:03:42

man and so I mean it in whichever area we abrogate of the Quran to be higher in minha. Obviously here we shall bring a better one or one which is similar to it, but it has a different hook. So the Quran stated that there is NUS

00:03:43--> 00:03:44

abrogation

00:03:45--> 00:03:52

give you just a quick example. If we go to the last few verses of Surah Al Baqarah.

00:03:54--> 00:04:03

There is a verse that says Lila enough is somewhat Yama filled up for interview do Mefi foresee come out to who you have said oh Combi Hila

00:04:04--> 00:04:22

they have a few really Manisha or your husband Manisha who Allahu Allah Cooley, che and Claudia. And this, basically, we recite it and we don't understand the actual meaning of this area. But the companions did, and that's why they knelt down, they sat on their knees

00:04:26--> 00:04:27

out of fear,

00:04:28--> 00:04:59

because the ISA is whether you disclose what is in your breast or you conceal it. Allah will hold you accountable for it. Oh my god. Sometimes we sit and we talk to ourselves and you have some thoughts. Some of the thoughts are bad. According to this area, a lot of money says whether you disclose it or you consider it even if you just keep it to yourself, whatever you think of Allah Almighty will account you for it.

00:05:00--> 00:05:25

then it is entirely up to him file Filoli Manisha Oyo, Zeebo, my Yasha. He may forgive whoever he was, and he may punish whoever he was. And Allah is indeed able to do all things. So when the Companions received this area, they were so worried, and they were very frightened, because we cannot afford to be held accountable for our thoughts.

00:05:27--> 00:05:55

So they talk to the Prophet sallallahu sallam, the Prophet peace be upon him, order them, to say Sameer now Aparna, to say we heard the idea and we obeyed and not to object to the command and the decree of Allah Almighty. So when they said, Allah Almighty revealed the following idea to abrogate what was mentioned in this ayah or Ben Allah to his nana in Siena.

00:05:56--> 00:06:15

Rabinow Aleta Malala in your slunk Emma Hamilton who Aladeen and Commelina Robin Avila to her minimalna for Katella and Abby, work for Anna Wolfie Luna or Hannah and demo learner from sunnah al COVID Catherine the last area of Surah Al Baqarah 286

00:06:16--> 00:06:22

So this area began with law you can live with Allahu nevsun inland Musa

00:06:24--> 00:07:13

wahala hammock desolate. It obligated what was mentioned in air 284 which says we're in Dooby Doo mafia and for SQL L to foo, you have said the Combi Hilah. Now, Allah Almighty declare that he is not going to account you for your thoughts. Rather he is going to account you for your earning Lucha Marchesa, but what Allah you have not tested that soon you do good, you will be rewarded for it. And when you do evil, you will be held accountable for what you do have the evil Mac Tessa, but under came the Hadith of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam to elaborate further more upon that when the Prophet peace be upon him said, Whoever intends to do a good deed. If he does it, he will be

00:07:13--> 00:08:00

rewarded for it 10 times more up to 700 times. And if he doesn't do it, because he wasn't able to, he will still get the full reward even though he did not do it. And whoever intends it was just a mere thought to do something evil. If he does not do it, if He abstains from doing it, he will receive a war for not doing it. And if he still does it, he will receive a single punishment for committing the sin. The catch in the third segment, which is if somebody thought of doing something bad, then he decided not to do it. He abstained because he feared Allah. He felt shy to commit the sin before Allah when he seen him. So for not doing the sin,

00:08:02--> 00:08:03

He will be rewarded.

00:08:04--> 00:08:05

And if he does it,

00:08:06--> 00:08:10

he would earn a single car for a single sin.

00:08:11--> 00:08:19

But there is no mention to what if he is thinking about it. What if the person thought about it? There is no punishment for

00:08:20--> 00:08:20

so

00:08:22--> 00:08:32

the last I have Surah Al Baqarah Lucha Mecca Saba to Allah Makdessi abrogated the AYA before which is AD to AD for

00:08:33--> 00:08:41

when to be do Murphy and fusi come out to fool your haciendo Camilla there are many is in the Quran. Sometimes the abrogation

00:08:43--> 00:08:43

may

00:08:45--> 00:09:10

cover the text and the verdict and the hokum and sometimes the abrogation is only concerning the verdict, but the citation, the text is still there, so that we recite both, and we compare then we recognize Allah's verse mercy, and how that was abrogated after it was very tough upon the believers such as in this day.

00:09:11--> 00:09:21

And that hadith likewise, India can likewise so the mainstream Muslims believe in abrogation because Islam did not begin all at once.

00:09:23--> 00:09:35

Excuse me, the Sharia was not all revealed at once. No gradually, so I Aisha Radi Allahu Anhu said the first installation was doing to drink drinking is forbidden.

00:09:36--> 00:09:59

People would have stayed out. We're not going to quit drinking. In the first revelation was to forbid adultery, people would not have followed the religion. People would have said we will never give up on adultery because they will live in a society where that was the gnomes, drinking, gambling, fornication and all of that, but our

00:10:00--> 00:10:02

Hello manners are so minimal fossil.

00:10:03--> 00:10:53

The first revelations of the short sewers was to establish the concept of monotheism, the concept of belief who is God? What about the hereafter, life after death and reminding people with the essence of the Creation, the purpose of creation and all of that? So when they were all ready for that, the revelation has started to reveal the do's and don'ts not do's take for innocence how alcohol and intoxicants were forbidden it was not forbidden all at once, rather or intervals different stages when stage a lot Almighty says yes Aluna candle hamari on myself. And so what Al Baqarah kullfi Hema is mocha zero no mana if you're only Ness. So the first stage about the ask you concerning drinking

00:10:53--> 00:11:09

and gambling say answer them saying that FEMA in both in drinking in any toxic intoxicants and in gambling is one KB mixin. Woman if you're already a nurse and some benefits, those benefits include

00:11:12--> 00:11:12

excuse me,

00:11:14--> 00:11:18

trade, selling and buying and making profit out of that.

00:11:19--> 00:11:20

Then

00:11:21--> 00:11:28

another I was revealed a lot of mighty says that whenever you come to the prayer, make sure that not intoxicated

00:11:33--> 00:11:41

had that Allah Moon Mata Colonia holiday in Amman Olathe Carabas salata Entomb, Sakara hot data la

00:11:42--> 00:11:43

Mata Kulu,

00:11:44--> 00:12:02

which means whenever you start the prayer, make sure that you are not intoxicated so that you comprehend whatever you're citing, the person may, instead of praying for himself, pray against himself because he's absent minded. So now the companions will not be able to drink during the day time.

00:12:05--> 00:12:57

The only chance is to drink in the evening because of the several hours between the late prayer and the dawn prayer. Then Allah Almighty revealed the final revelation in this regard in the following Surah Surah and it only says, You Alladhina amanu enamel camera while Messier while unsolvable as learn what to do so minimally shape party federate anyhoo hola hola come to flee horn Oh, you who believe indeed he listed I'll come in five seconds from when Mesa gambling while ensemble Aslan the stones that they use either to worship or to slaughter their sacrifices before as means of approach to their idols. This is all of the filthy work of Satan so avoid fished Anywhoo now I like him to

00:12:57--> 00:13:22

flee Hoon in order to be successful. That's it. So at least enables the final revelation in this regard. Do you not allow even to go near it? You're not allowed to sit it you're not allowed to drink it you're not allowed to serve it you're not allowed to, to sit the grapes to those whom you know that they're going to squeeze them and turn them into wine by any means. Okay? We're not seeing the in these references.

00:13:24--> 00:14:13

All the different references. Even those which have been abrogated, are still in stated in the sewers with their inserted Bacara are in Surah Nisa still in stated, so that the believers understand how gradually Allah Almighty picked up the believers from the filth, of drinking, gambling and all of that into the new or avoiding all of this filth. Nowadays, they have a system which is known the gradual known as the gradual withdrawal technique. They treat the addicts the drug addicts, with a gradual withdrawal technique they give them but smaller doses, smaller doses until they are able to get rid of that dependence completely. Now, in this hadith, that's one of the

00:14:13--> 00:14:16

most obvious references

00:14:17--> 00:14:30

to the abrogation where the prophets Allah selon mentioned earlier, and the current verdict, what was the earlier verdict? I had forbidding you from visiting the graveyard.

00:14:31--> 00:14:42

I forbid you from visiting the Senator. Now. I'm asking you to resume visiting them visit them now. So what was abrogated?

00:14:44--> 00:14:54

Not visiting the graveyard. Do we have the right to know? Why was it forbidden in the beginning? Yeah, yeah, of course. Everything happens for a reason.

00:14:55--> 00:14:56

Yeah, and

00:14:57--> 00:14:59

those people work

00:15:00--> 00:15:45

Close to disbelief and cough. So they maintain a lot of traditions of cough. Nowadays we see the people who come from some parts of the world to visit the grave of the Prophet sallallahu sallam, they want to bring with them the package of their cultural traditions. Whenever they go to the pier of the person whenever they see if the Hindus, the Buddhists, how they do with their details, so they want to do the same to the grave of the Prophet sallallahu sallam. No, that is not right. This is a different Deen. Our deen is the dean of monotheism. So who's Muhammad Sallallahu sallam? Allah answers in the Quran, woman Mohammed on in LA Rasool for the harlot men cuddly helpful so

00:15:47--> 00:16:32

that's in surah Allah, Allah and Muhammad is just a messenger before him, many messengers have come. And then in another area, Lord Almighty stated that the Prophet sallallahu Sallam should say will Inanna anniversario Miss LUCAM yo la nama Illa who Camila Hua hate, someone can overrule your Karabi failure Milan Milan Salah Hanwell, are you Shrek Be aware that your Obeah had a surah LKF say oh Mohamed Salah Salem, I'm a human being like you. I'm just a human being like you. The only difference between you and me is I received the word from Allah Almighty to communicate it to you. What is the word all about? In Ilaha illa Allah, you will highlight your anima Allahu Camila had,

00:16:32--> 00:16:42

that the revelation I received that your God is only one God is the only one who's worthy of worship, so ever hopes to meet him on the day of judgment

00:16:43--> 00:17:37

in in good faith and receive salvation. Let him do good righteous deeds, why not associating with him any in worship while you should be aware that there will be a harder so in the beginning, people maintain some traditions of worshipping idols of offering their sacrifices by the graves of the righteous people, they appear. The word they use the thing that they communicate the message between ordinary people and God Himself, as it stated in the beginning of Surah Azumah while at the end, the woman Dooney Alia mana Buddha whom in your career wanna in Allah, his old for this one, they said, We do not worship them. Literally. We only take them as means of approach to communicate our message

00:17:37--> 00:18:23

to God. All of that has been nullified. All of that has been dismissed. And now when the believers evolved, when the believers grew up in faith, and they perfectly understood that Muhammad is a human being, and he's the last messenger of God, when they perfectly understood that Allah is the only one who's worthy of worship, when they perfectly understood that what is the difference between Ruby and Olo? Here, the Lordship and the unity of worship? And who is the only one who maintains the best and the most perfect names and attributes? Well, I'm eCola, who had laser chemistry issues on her Samuel Basia now remains for us. Is there any benefit in visiting the graveyard? Yes, what is it, it

00:18:23--> 00:19:12

reminds us of death. It reminds us with the fact that which we all acknowledge, but all of us are negligent of except for few. So the only mean, and the only way to keep us reminded with this fact, and to keep us on a standby position and ready, which means that you will do your best to do as much good deeds as possible. And meanwhile, to wrap up, and to be ready for departure is to constantly remember that, you know, when you go to a market or to the mall, today is a big sale, and they keep announcing all customers get ready we'll be closing the store will be closing in 15 minutes, the store will be closing in 10 minutes or so because in in five minutes, the store is actually closed.

00:19:12--> 00:19:56

Now, please proceed to the nearest cashier to leave to check out. When you hear these messages all the time you try your best to pick up your items as as fast as you can. Why? Because you gotta leave. Every day that you take people to the graveyard and every once in a while we'll go and solitude in private and you visit the graveyard. And he says Subhanallah this person used to be a very big shot. He was a minister, or this person used to be a prince used to be a King used to be a president. This person used to lead us in the prayer. Oh, and this kid Subhanallah he died when he was only 13 years old. And all of that and this woman she used to be a beauty queen. Where is she

00:19:56--> 00:19:59

now? under the ground. That means

00:20:00--> 00:20:39

I could be my turn. So visiting the graveyard, the main benefit of visiting the grave your brothers and sisters, is to be reminded of the Hereafter is to be reminded of death. So here, first fact we learn about the obligation, we learn about why was it forbidden in the beginning to visit the graveyard? Then we'll learn about the wisdom behind commending visiting the graveyard remains for us one single thing which is very important. Is this recommendation for both men and women, or is it only for men? Will when you look at the title of the chapter,

00:20:40--> 00:20:48

it says, babbles bad is your article war, then what is the word Lear region for men?

00:20:52--> 00:20:53

In fact,

00:20:54--> 00:21:46

there is a difference of opinion in this regard. Is this hadith exclusive for men? Or does it cover both men and women. And as this is our tradition, we do not limit ourselves to a single view, and a limit the viewers to adhere to one single view it is your right to learn about the different views, especially if they're all valid. And we can assist you as to what to choose and recommend for you which view is more correct, more authentic. But we do not dismiss other views who do not say that's only one way. Now this is not our attitude. So here, the vast majority of the scholars are of the view that this hadith and visiting the graveyard is only for men, and it is disliked for women to

00:21:46--> 00:22:23

visit the graveyard. What about the other view? It is a view of Imam Abu Hanifa. May Allah have mercy on him? Who says that this recommendation covers both? Because there is no reason to dismiss generalizing this recommendation to cover both men and women. Since there is no reference the Hadith even though it is mentioned in the masculine, for Zulu had as it sounds like for men, but similarly every command is given for men, it covers both men and women. Whatever is mentioned in in masculine format, it covers both masculine and feminine.

00:22:25--> 00:22:51

That's one the second is and this is a very valid argument. The second is, hey, wait a minute. What is the wisdom behind visiting the graveyard? Because it reminds us of death and the hereafter is this reminder. And this virtue or benefit, limited only for men do only men need to be reminded of the Hereafter or women to women to so why limited only for men.

00:22:53--> 00:23:34

The first group, the vast majority of the scholars said because the Prophet sallallahu Sallam and another Hadith have cursed women who visited the graveyard. Correct. But that was before this hadith was mentioned. And that's why we started about 1015 minutes talking about the abrogation. So it abrogated the earlier ruling, which was not only limited to women, it was to the prohibition was for everyone. No one should visit the graveyard except for burying dead people. Besides that you should not because of the false practices that people used to do before Islam and the early stages of Islam. Okay, what else?

00:23:36--> 00:24:22

No more Hanifa and by the way, also in one of the views of Al Imam Muhammad in humble, which is transmitted by YBNL Cordana in his book Al Mooney and by Al Imam nawawi. May Allah have mercy on him, who is a chef here you will madhhab you transmitted that from Alabama Shafi in one of his views, and this book is authored by and compiled by Mahmoud nawawi. May Allah have mercy on him who adopted the chef you might have. So what did the Imam Shafi Ramadan in one of his views, said they agree to Abu Hanifa especially that there is a Hadith issue about the Allahu anha as the Prophet sallallahu Sallam once whenever I visit the graveyard what should they say? So he said greet them

00:24:22--> 00:24:59

saying as salaam alaikum Allah Dr. Iman meaning in our Muslim you know in sha Allah who can now have one Oneness of Allah, Allah and Allah Karim Allah. So she asked the Prophet Salas and I'm not sure they say when they visit the graveyard, and the Prophet Salah Salem did not forbid her did not say Kent is only a commended for men. Rather, he said, You should say this supplication. Also in the long Hadith when the Prophet sallallahu Sallam came across a woman who was in the graveyard, and she was mourning the death of her child, and the Prophet sallallahu sallam said to her, yeah, Matala it definitely let her

00:25:00--> 00:25:45

I was very fear Allah and be patient. He did not tell her. What are you doing here? Don't you know that you're not allowed to be in the graveyard. So based on that we have the opinion of Mr. Hanifa says this recommendation is for both. And I inclined bedtime to this view, with conditions that a woman who visits the graveyard should understand that the wisdom behind allowing her or us as men to visit the graveyard is to be reminded of death, to be reminded of the Hereafter, and also to make dua to the dead people, which making dua for them from abroad or within the graveyard, who will benefit them in sha Allah azza wa jal and keep in mind that, that communicating what they did will

00:25:45--> 00:26:29

not do you any good. And not to renew the sadness, the sorrow and grief by visiting the graveyard in every once in a while because you all understand that women are very emotional, more than men, in a good sense, not in a bad one. So that's why if you can control your emotions, and if you know that you're visiting the game, you have to be reminded of the Hereafter to make dua for the dead people to ask Allah to have mercy on them, and to be dismissed and not to take these visits as celebrations. Like some people love innovations in this regard. People pray read and they go soon after it to the graveyard, that is forbidden. And they single out a single day of the week to visit

00:26:29--> 00:26:38

the graveyard that is forbidden. May Allah Almighty have mercy on all of us, we're going to take a short break. And in sha Allah we'll be back with some more please stay tuned.

00:26:57--> 00:27:15

Salam, Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh and we'll come back our phone numbers beginning with a code of 002 Then 023, treble 5131 or 132 and the email address is [email protected]. Now with the following Hadith, which is a second in this

00:27:16--> 00:27:17

chapter,

00:27:18--> 00:27:27

Hadith number 581. The hadith is collected while Imam Muslim and aerated by our Mother of the Believers are Aisha Radi Allahu anha.

00:27:30--> 00:27:54

And our Isha Torabi Allahu anha Carlat cannot Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Akula can Allah Allah to her mother was hula hula sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the Orpheum in air theory lady in Al Baqia fair cool assalamualaikum Rocco me Nene will attack who met who I do. Garden Giroud

00:27:56--> 00:27:59

we're in in sha Allah who become law a code.

00:28:00--> 00:28:05

Allah Who mafia Ophelia Khalifa que ella cada for Muslim

00:28:06--> 00:29:00

Mother of the Believers may Allah be pleased with her. Aisha reported that whenever it was her turn, to spend the night with the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him. You will go to the back to the cemetery of Medina at the last part of the night and says, Peace be upon you. All cemetery of the believing people. What you have been promised has come to you. Your title tomorrow and certainly we shall follow you whenever ALLAH wills Oh ALLAH forgive the inmates of Albuquerque over here on our card. Oh ALLAH forgive the rulers of the fear Allah. The word Baqia refers to the graveyard or the cemetery containing the graves of the people of El Medina.

00:29:01--> 00:29:20

It is if you're facing the Qibla of the machine of the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam, once you exit to your left hand side, it's a huge space and you cannot recognize the grave of any person because it's all leveled. This is how the graveyard of the Muslims should be.

00:29:21--> 00:29:35

You don't see marbles. You didn't see elevated buildings. You don't see any decorations. Because this is the hereafter What are you gonna do with all of that? And I leave your Talib said the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam ordered him.

00:29:37--> 00:29:47

Excuse me, Allah Tala kava and morphia and endless awaited that whenever you see a grave which is elevated, you should level it. All the graves should be leveled.

00:29:48--> 00:29:59

Recently, when we went to bury one of our brothers, may Allah bless his soul Subhanallah this person I hope he was a righteous person

00:30:00--> 00:30:04

well and was lucky Allah Allah He hadn't. he out of his

00:30:05--> 00:30:11

earning, he built a big machine, which turned into a machine and a big Institute for seeking knowledge.

00:30:13--> 00:30:34

And a center to support the orphans. And to sponsor many refugees 1000s of them. And it is operating and functioning, masha Allah fully, in many good ways Alhamdulillah in 200, in Africa, if and rules and all of that, and this person whenever I used to give the hotbar, he would be sitting by the end of the masjid

00:30:37--> 00:30:57

concealed, nobody knows anything about him, he does not say I build this machine, this machine is mine, he doesn't talk much. He is trying to conceal his identity as much as you can. Then one morning I received a message that he has passed away Subhanallah

00:30:58--> 00:31:08

he was buried, according to his was Syria in a graveyard, which is prepared for the poor people who cannot afford to have a grave of their own.

00:31:09--> 00:31:10

Excuse me.

00:31:11--> 00:31:29

So when we went to bury him, this is the graveyard similar to Obamacare, it's all leveled. The you just put a brick on top of the game, and each game has a number. So if anyone wanted to visit a particular person, you can go to the records, grave number 373. This is for this person, and so on.

00:31:30--> 00:31:58

Meanwhile, as I was walking between the graves and in the graveyard, so this is an image, of course, obviously, of Albuquerque or the Crayola code, there are 1000s and 1000s of the companions of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam are buried there. Do you see any marble or any stone that says this is for this Sahabi or this lady companion, you don't see any of that. It doesn't matter a lot of people in the West, including Muslims,

00:32:00--> 00:32:41

they invest and they make money in order to save some money for the stone, for the stone and for the casket and for the suit that will be bedded in after death. The stone cost a lot and the imported from Brazil and the port it from here and there. This is all doesn't mean anything. Because once you die, you're dead, you will not benefit of any of that. So how good is it to invest five gains was seven grands in a stone and in the tub of the casket, and by the end, it will be over ruined, you will not do any good. Somebody who is living can benefit out of that. So I saw some

00:32:43--> 00:33:35

grave Graves and with the marble. And the carbon again is a marble. This is the grave of general so and so. Judge so and so. Dr. so and so. And I think this is really a sign of lack of understanding, lack of understanding that hey, you're not in this life anymore. Or many people like to say, Don't you know who am I? Don't you know what I do in this life? When I don't know and I don't have to know because now you're buried under the ground. The person next door to you, who doesn't even have a stone, and his grave is not erected above the ground, and he's buried under the ground, not above the ground could be much better before you then Allah subhanaw taala. The angel

00:33:37--> 00:34:03

the angels would come to test you whenever asked you, Your Honor, because you're a judge, Your Honor. Who is your Lord, Your Honor? Who is your messenger? Your Honor, they are not going to send you to because you are a general and say, General saw and so what do you say concerning Islam, you will be tested like everybody else, humble yourself. Come down.

00:34:05--> 00:34:37

Understand that you are in need. You are in need. So you have to show some humility. You are in need for Allah's mercy. Those who make certain that you know one of these guys have his his his grave fully air conditioned. Yeah, fully air conditioned? Or do you think that will make your grave a garden of paradise? And will they ever protect you against the angels who are going to cushion you and who are going to torture you if you fail to answer the questions? No.

00:34:38--> 00:34:38

No,

00:34:40--> 00:34:59

it will be buried all along by yourself. But because those people even though they're Muslims, but the they took it for granted they happen to be born in Islam. But the thing that as they were honored in this dunya the oppressed people, the wrong people. They had been always dealt with as superior to those two people.

00:35:00--> 00:35:06

They think they will receive the same treatment in the Hereafter, like the story of the two men and Surah LKF.

00:35:08--> 00:35:32

When this arrogant men say to the poor person, well, I don't want you to elaborate, as you don't know how you're on minhang color, but even if there is here after even if I return to my Lord, and here is the words me, you shall give me better than these two guardians in the hereafter. Why? Because he honored me here. He gave me that much and he deprive you. This is a sign that he loves me so he shall make me a judge there. You should make me a general there he shall make me whatever.

00:35:34--> 00:35:36

You're gravely mistaken.

00:35:37--> 00:35:38

You don't understand

00:35:46--> 00:35:47

some of the whole affair.

00:35:50--> 00:36:11

At the time of this, he ordered a grave to be dug in his palace. And when he knew that he was close to his throne, he would lie down in his grave and he would cry and say Yemen, Zulu MOLKO or Han men Godzilla Monaco. Oh Allah whose domain will never vanish have mercy on one whose domain has vanished.

00:36:13--> 00:36:29

This is the concept of visiting the graveyard why do we visit the graveyard? We visit the graveyard before we are being visited in the graveyard in Surah attack castle. What does it say? The competition and rivalry in worldly matters and

00:36:31--> 00:36:35

how hot zone to moon McCobb you will sit in and hug

00:36:36--> 00:37:23

you're sitting in the horror. Some people are talking about good things about the Quran and about the Hadith and about how the Hajj resembles really the Day of Judgment. The day of aphorism was the Day of Gathering and others are talking about I just purchased a condo here and a built villa there. And I did this and that for my kids. And they brag about their positions exactly what the ISIS al Haq motorcars Hatsune McCobb you've been kept busy with the competition concerning piling up wealth and worldly matters until you end up in the graveyard Zuckerberg care less of a talisman. He says though, Tom because you're not residing in the graveyard forever. This is not your final abode. It's

00:37:23--> 00:37:30

just a visit. It could be years it could be 10s of years. It could be hundreds of years. But it is temporary. As you add higher toolbars

00:37:31--> 00:38:13

you will be asked, you will be asked about every delight that you enjoy in this life. So a true believer is a person who understand that his grave should not be any better than the graves of the companions. Have you seen the grave of most abnormal? At the time of his burial? The Prophet Salah Salem shed tears he cried. He cried while burying most abnormally. Have you seen the grave of Al Hamza say the Shahada. May Allah be pleased with him? Have you seen it? What do you see there? Have you visited the graveyard of the martyrs have heard? What do you see there? Nothing, playing leveled some bricks here and there to show that there is a grave here.

00:38:14--> 00:38:31

But those people who were very righteous are identified by Allah, it doesn't matter whether we can identify their graves or not. So we need to humble ourselves. And we need to invest in something better, instead of investing 10s of 1000s in a grave,

00:38:32--> 00:38:55

and in a stone and in a casket and all of that this money could be invested in something better for you that will benefit you after your death. Find a school, find an orphanage find a mission, or that you can participate in its expansion, its remodeling or its maintenance or build one on your own if you can afford to do that salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah.

00:38:57--> 00:39:06

Brother Abdul Rahman from Libya. Yeah, I said, I'm Megan yen and I am I converted to Islam in Libya.

00:39:08--> 00:39:14

You converted to Islam when? Yeah, Islam when we are a Ghanaian?

00:39:16--> 00:39:25

Okay, Abdul Rahman. Go ahead. I'm listening. Yeah. So I am the only Muslim in my family who if I die,

00:39:26--> 00:39:58

it's right. For any Muslim to come and bail me out if you're right, let in by Christmas. Okay, I got your cushion and at the ramen. I would like to confirm to you right now that some of your Muslim friends should be aware of the fact that you converted to Islam. And you should write down a statement that your body should be dealt with after a long life in sha Allah as a Muslim, because I happen to have this incident

00:39:59--> 00:40:00

what

00:40:00--> 00:40:10

One of my students was a priest in the United States. And he was a doctor to may Allah have mercy on him. And when he died,

00:40:12--> 00:40:15

everybody in his family knew that he's a Muslim.

00:40:17--> 00:40:39

But somehow his wife, his non Muslim wife insisted that he should be treated as kosher. And of course, since he did not have any written statement, we could not argue the case. So his body was dealt with as a non Muslim. So now, please, Whoever accepts Islam should write down our idea

00:40:42--> 00:40:48

that I should be buried in the Muslim graveyard, and Muslims should wash my body,

00:40:50--> 00:41:24

read me in a Muslim coffin and offer the funeral prayer for me, and it should be bedded in a Muslim graveyard. And I'm the Rahman accepted Islam two months ago, let's all pray for him. May Allah accept your Islam, may Allah keep your steadfast on his steady path, and May Allah guide all of us toward his best. Inshallah the Alana said in this hadith, whenever it was her night, because the prophets Allah Salam had several wives. And Allah Almighty ordered us to be fair if you happen to have more than one spouse,

00:41:25--> 00:41:26

fair means

00:41:27--> 00:41:38

with regards to the spending, the spinning of worlds, a spinning of time. So if I shall have a mind, every other woman would have a night.

00:41:39--> 00:41:49

If he was traveling, he would draw a lot, who would join him of his wives during this journey, and so on. So once in one four nights,

00:41:50--> 00:42:21

she flipped over and she didn't find the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam, she kept looking for him. And finally she found him praying and he was in his sujood. In another time, she followed the Prophet sallallahu sallam, when he left at the last part of the night. And when she followed him, she realized that the prophets Allah Salim was going to visit the graveyard of bacterial orchid, where many of their companions were buried, and she heard the Prophet sallallahu Sallam saying this

00:42:23--> 00:42:33

as salam aleikum Dara Coleman meaning peace be with you the home of the believers at our command to add on what you have been promised have come to you which is

00:42:34--> 00:43:11

obviously the beating of the graveyard has been mentioned in other Hadith Inshallah, if we have time we can cover some we're in sha Allah who become law one and in sha Allah, God willing, we shall join you here saying insha Allah does not mean that we're not sure whether it will happen or not. No, but as a means of confirmation because Allah Almighty already stated, could lumen Allah fer Allah homophily la Berkeley ALLAH, ALLAH forgive the people who are buried in Boqueria Alarcon or in the cemetery of Alba Korea.

00:43:14--> 00:44:03

In the following two Hadees whether the one which is narrated by bowrider Radi Allahu Allah, or I believe now best may Allah be pleased with both of them. The greeting is slightly different. And the most authentic greeting in this regard is to say, As salam Wa alaykum Allah dare, Mina Mina will Muslimeen we're in sha Allah who become la Cohn NUS Hola, hola. Hola, como la vie. So we greet the winners of the graveyard of the believers of the Muslims. And again, you say in sha Allah soon who will join you. And what is the state Ness Allah Allah Lana, welcome. And I fear we ask Allah to pardon us, and to follow the news. And there the Prophet sallallahu Sallam is teaching us that

00:44:03--> 00:44:50

whenever we pray for others, we pray for ourselves to begin by praying for ourselves. So we say this Allah Helena, welcome Allah I feel we ask Allah to pardon us and to pardon you. That's it. There is no other communications, there is no Fatiha, there is no ERC, there is no luachra there is no Assange there, there is no loss 11 times 13 times here and 20 times there, and many, many fabricated statements in this regard. No, there is only greeting Yes, because when we visit the graveyard, number one to benefit of the reminder of death and the hereafter. Number two is to greet and make dua for the dead people to ask Allah to pardon them, to ask Allah to make their graves gardens or

00:44:50--> 00:44:59

products to ask Allah to have mercy on them, not to ask of any benefit from them, because they do not own any benefit for themselves.

00:45:00--> 00:45:23

They cannot even benefit themselves. They are waiting for a benefit to come to them from the living ones. May Allah have mercy on us, our living and our day people may Allah have mercy on the entire Muslim Ummah May Allah forgive us. All our sins are Hola Hola, Estelle for Allah honey welcome. Also Allah Allahu Allah said and I'm hungry I didn't while early he was so happy Oh Salam Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah

glory to Him. He asked me humans to be the best and give his best religion to Allah Our God is the greatest the one and only Glory to him on any girl wants to be the best give his best religion to them. So why did they know that forgetting all about and in paradise, we're shipping cows fire and stones, sending the rescue the cheapest
