Surah Surah you
The one I just read a few verses from this surah My dear, respected elders and brothers in Islam is an amazing Surah Surah which has so many lessons to be derived from a surah that talks about the story of use of Allah He salatu salam, and just as Allah Subhana Medina states that powder cannot be used for what if what he is deciding? And indeed, in the story of use of and his brothers the assigns Missa erian for the ones who seek there are signs in other places on us behind him What is this law called the Canon v kasasa. him
elda. In these stories, talking about the stories of the Koran, stories of the Prophet salallahu salatu salam stories of the nations before us, there is a barrage of lessons to be derived from for whom, and for the ones who have intellect for the intelligent ones. May Allah subhanho wa Taala open the doors of understanding for all of us. So moving on to the story of use of alayhi salaatu wa Salaam. I'm sure most of you are aware that Yusuf Ali is radical Islam, he had 11 Brothers, Yusuf alayhi salatu salam, he had 11 brothers. So one day use of adhesive that was around he sees a dream, he sees a dream and amazing dream, because it will use he was a small boy at that time, he sees an
amazing dream. And he had a very good relationship with his father, usefully salatu salam. So he goes to his father and he tells his father
it's called the use of the IB
comma a to Lisa Gd
mediafire father, I saw a dream, a dream. In the era I had Ashoka. I saw 11 stars. And I saw the moon one comma, I saw the sun and I saw the moon, to moon Lisa God, I saw all of these things, the celestial objects, the stars, the moon, the sun, I saw all of these objects making such the prostrating until
now the minute his father knows his father, his father was a AlLahi salatu salam Jacob yaku AlLahi salatu salam, the minute he heard the dream, the he was a prophet of Allah Subhana Medina. So naturally, things were revealed unto him from Allah subhanho data. The minute he heard this dream from use of Allah salatu salam, he told his son yeah Guna taco sauce aronia Karina if watseka fire key to laka Qaeda. Mehdi Hassan, don't tell your brother man don't tell your brothers about this dream.
For your key doula Qaeda, because they might plot against you in shape on an insomniac movie. Indeed, shape on is a claim is a clear enemy for mankind. Let's pause there for a moment. Look at the advice the father is giving the son. Now why did he tell us of Allah salatu salam this? What was he fearing? What was he fearing for your key to like a Qaeda that they will plot against you? And what's the element that will make one's own brothers plot against an individual?
Your own blood brothers? Do you have brothers, you have sisters? What is this element that will make them plot against you shaitan in general, he uses the element of jealousy. He uses the element of jealousy. The minute jealousy comes into the heart of an individual, that individuals heart becomes a little bit hatred with anger, with pride with arrogance. And that is when media respected elders and brothers in Islam. I see a few sisters at the back as well. So the brothers and sisters in Islam, that is when shaitaan seizes the opportunity to make an individual commit all kinds of things. And I'm sure you're aware at times you hear a brother killing another brother. Why? Because
of jealousy because of anger, because he looks at his brother, why is he so rich? Why does he have such a house? Why does he have such a vehicle? Jealousy comes in this is the way shavon fools and deceives people and he was shaper he was the first individual to have you know, to have jealousy towards another creation of Allah subhanho wa Taala and this was in regard to our father. Malini salatu salam when Allah subhanho wa Taala created other islands so that was a noun in
judo niada sajo in
Belize, and remember when we said to the angels, prostrate unto other islands around they all prostrating except for he believes Baba was stuck there. What can we know carefully he refused. He was
browdy goes out again and he became from the Kufa and then another place Allah subhana wa asks ablaze what prevented you from making such a day? And you know what his reply was? Carla and I
mean holla kutani mean
mahalo Kota homie.
I am better than him. He believes that I am better than him. Halekulani mean You created me out of fire
team and you created him out of something akin to Potter's clay something like clay.
spawners Rahim Allah mentioned that he believes shaitaan was the first individual to ever discriminate to discriminate to say you know, I am better than you because why I you know, I'm a white or I'm a black and this and that I'm richer than you. I come from a better family. He was the first individual to discriminate. I am better than him because I have been traded from fire whilst he has been created from Potter's clay. It was jealousy because he was jealous. Why was all the attention on me Serato Salaam why was Allah subhanho wa Taala going to make him? Wait followed up Brooklyn melodica teenager in Oakville are they Felicia? Why was he going to become a halifa? You
understand? So he was jealous. And this brought about so many things, many brothers and sisters in Islam, this pushed shaitan into the abyss of destruction. He was with them Allah He was not from the Malaika condominial gene, but he was with them and he was with them and it because he strove so much he was worshipping Allah subhanho wa Taala so much, he was amidst the ranks of the melodica. But then he felt so bad, because he started this track down this disastrous path, when we have bad feelings of jealousy towards the creation of Allah subhanho data, the stewards who have had advantage.
So likewise, jacobellis Rasul Allah, he advises his son, don't inform, don't inform your brothers about it. Now unless behind him with Allah goes on to say that
in one point, they the sons of yaku, they, you know, they started to see that their father, their father, love use of Island in salatu salam more than them. They said, if you have who have Bula abena mina wanna know, in the
movie, that you know, use of his mo beloved unto our father, Yusuf is more beloved unto our father. Now this was the starting of everything when they notice that their father in other words, the use of AlLahi wa sallam was more beloved to their father than them, that's when they started plotting against us vice versa. So scholars, they highlight, very importantly, that parents You and I, if we are parents, we must treat our children equally. We must treat our children equally in every manner possible. You see, even Baraka inheritance, that law comes in after you pass away after after you pass away. That's when the laws of inheritance will take its course. But during your lifetime, if
you have three children, for example, if you want to give one child something, you must give the other two children as well equal. You if you give one child something, you must give the other two children as well. Treating one's children in a very unjust manner is completely forbidden in our religion is completely forbidden. We must treat all of our children equal this is the first lesson that we see from the story of use of violence that was that they felt that use Valley is not your salon was more beloved unto their father. And that's when they started plotting against us.
They started planning and as we will see in sha Allah, they plotted to kill the evil plot to kill use of Allah hisako ceram the very next is no yo so far away Torah who are going Luna
de como de Konami De Palma saw the Hey in Baku, you can use of our Vitara foo or bar or go and dump him in some foreign land. If we look
at common sorry, hey, this was shavon whispering to them kill yourself now because they were plotting against us family. So that was when he sees the opportunity he went and started us with Sophie so do renounce Pocatello use of kilyos of Toronto or throw him in some urban in some foreign land. Yeah Luna Kuma vehicle and then you will have all your father's attention. Your your father's attention will solely be for you all and after that.
And after that, you can do good deeds and you can you can become righteous people. You do this
And then later on you do Tada, you seek forgiveness from Allah subhanho wa Taala and you can become good people once again. This is how shaitaan started to whisper in their minds, but then one of them said call a call a domain home law to lose
your job be a topic of Roberto sejati enquanto violin one of them said Papa in one of them said don't kill use of Allah He said that was around. When dump him somewhere, there will be a caravan that's passing by, they will take him and they will go. Now they started plotting and planning. They go to their father, and they asked their father, why don't you send us a file that was with us when we go out to play when we go out to graze the sheep and when we go to tend the animals, why don't you send us with us? Fallujah, abana Malika that's a man Nana Yusuf, we're in Allah hula NASA phone Why don't you send us with us whilst we are in Allahu NASA home? We are sincere advisors. We will
look after him your well wishes towards him are still human, but they are
in Allah who would have you don't send him with us tomorrow? Let him spend some time with us. Let him play with us. We're in Allah Allah happy don't we will look after him. They promised this to their father. The father replies boiler in Nila zanoni happy to be here. For a cola was the
man who was known. The father says Jacobian is not wasallam that I fear. I fear that a wolf may eat him up what unto man who was you know, whilst you are heedless about him perhaps you are busy with something else and a wolf may come and eat him up. Then they assure their father cannula in a Calico wanna know, house ban? How can a wolf eat him whilst we are you know, none of us we are strong. We are group one of narrowsburg in it and of course Iran then we would be utterly losers if they if the wolf were to come and eat our brother. So they assure their father yaku and then they take use of Allahu salatu salam with them and they go, they did use violence to Surat wasallam with them. And
let me quickly fast forward with the story. What happens is they take use family history that was set up with them, and they go and dump him into a weapon. Now just think of this.
Who is doing this? Not enemies, not strangers, not outsiders. Use of Allah hisako salaams own brothers blood brothers. You understand how disasterous jealousy is in and hazard a poodle has an add
on jealousy destroys your good deeds just as how fire gobbles up firewood. You know firewood. firewood is generally dry. If you light up firewood, it crackers and the fire gobbles up the firewood. Likewise, jealousy destroys all of your goodies. Why have you all come to the masjid? Why do we all come to Silicon? fudger salasar away? Why are we fasting during the month of Ramadan? We're doing so many good deeds to secure the pleasure of Allah subhanho wa Taala but what is the point of being all those good deeds, and then harboring feelings of jealousy? The minute you have feelings of jealousy, you're destroying all your good deeds? May Allah subhanho wa Taala protect us
all. Jealousy was what made the brothers of use of violence that was gonna dump him into a well, they dumped him into a well they took his shirt, the shirt of use of AlLahi salatu salam and they smeared it with blood. What blood the blood of sheep, a sheep that they had the smear the shirt of usually that was not because now they had to get back to their father and they had to convince their father about the fact that a wolf had eaten their brother.
So now Allah subhanho wa Taala mentions in the novel for an wotja Whoo hoo marisha
a coup now it becomes time you know, it's now become late with Java a boon they go to their father during the time of Russia and how do they go? They go beeping they go crying What have they done? They have put their drone their brother their little brother little use of into a well that taken his shirt, smeared it with sheep blood and now they're going to their father kind which about a year but going on
in the habit Who taught you so far? I
mean, Elana Cooney saw the they say oh haha in other Havana, we went and we were playing around with us and we left us for a while in the Medina by our things for accountability.
And a wolf ate him up
to get the law applied in clear line, woman and savvy movement in an hour of goodness absurdity, but you may not believe in us even though we are speaking the truth. Wha Oh, Allah camisa he be the main character, and now they show their father, the shirt, the shirt with the smeared blood. My dear brothers and sisters in Islam, you must know one thing jacobellis rappers man he was a prophet of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And in general, Allah azzawajal he chooses very intelligent people to be prophets, the minute Yaqoob Allah He Surat wasallam saw the shirt. He didn't say anything. But at the back of his mind, he knew it was actually alive because the shirt was perfect. Now which wolf
eats a person neatly removes the shirt and keeps it aside and eats the person neatly and then smears blood? If a wolf were to come and eat someone, the shirt would be torn, there would be holes everywhere, but this shirt was perfect. It was like it was ironed and crisp and neat. And there was blood everywhere. So Yom Tov Allah He salatu salam, he knew it was a clear and I said for Sagar and callable. So,
Amara for Sabra and Janine falafel
Casa phone, he says, patience, patience is beautiful. And he bought this trial, this trial, Allah subhana wa Taala was putting him through with patience. Now looking at the story of use values not wassalam in a nutshell, many brothers and sisters in Islam, we see that look, use values from a very young age, he goes through trial after trial trial after trial. So at times, you and I, we we go through challenges and difficulties in life. At times we think at times we question a lot we question the decree the Kabbalah and we say why am I suffering like this? Why am I going through this problem? Why am I going through this issue? At times Allah subhanho wa Taala puts us through
sicknesses through through financial loss at times we lose a beloved one a dear one, somebody passes away, maybe your parents passed away maybe your children passed away maybe your wife passed away. You go through challenges for a number one apple machine in unhealthy will do or even Apple similar and while you will have to see what Allah subhana wa Tada, he states, we will definitely test them. We will definitely test you all. So naturally, this life is all about tests. We need to look at the stories of the MBA highlighting so that was one of the live lessons design lessons. Challenge after challenge. He was a young boy, he was thrown into the well and didn't MDM. He was the apple of the
eye of his father. He missed his father so much, young boy, maybe the size of this little boy there, young boy, he was thrown into a well and didn't end there. A caravan comes with I'd say Yara,
Adela dalva for Paula Yaga Shahada Guna. A caravan goes by and what does the caravan do? Do they help you? safale schelotto Salah do they help him? No, they don't help him. They put in a bucket and they take him out. And they go and sell him as a slave. As a slave. Many brothers and sisters in Islam, just imagine you are a free man. You are free man. If someone were to kidnap you, and go and send you as a slave, how would it feel? How would it feel? He was a free individual. He was not a slave. His brothers, they went and dumped him into a well, now a caravan comes by they rescue him and they don't return him to his father. They take him to another land and they send him as a slave.
Allahu Akbar, from one tribe to another tribe. And does it end there. No, it doesn't end there. Now what happens? The lady of the house as his missile, the minister who bought him as a slave, the lady of the house tries to seduce him after he grows up. What should I say? No hope no. Now, you have to fast forward the story. Now usually you start to Islam has grown up. He is an adolescent now. The lady of the house tries to seduce him.
She tries to seduce him, voila, there must be he will be ha she wanted to seduce him. She had a desire for use of knowledge that was around that you need to understand the reality of this challenge. Just imagine put yourself in the shoes of us violin. So that was a youngster, okay, in the house of a beautiful, rich lady. And she was his mistress owner and she is commanding him to commit something wrong to involve in a in an illicit relationship with her. Now what is stopping him from doing it? He is a young adolescent. I'm sure most of you are aware, you know, when you are during your teenage years, your adolescent years your hormones are all over the place. Here. What is
stopping us filing salatu salam and what does the lady do? was upon bad no voila till Abu lahab she locks the doors
She locks the dose and not just ordinary locks or one bottle of water. She double locks the dose she holds the nose. She makes sure she makes sure all the dose are locked. And then she goes to him and says hi telex. She calls him to come at this point nothing What is stopping you? Savannah is not was around from committing something wrong with this lady. Nothing at all. The dozer bolted, okay, and it's not like he is trying to seduce her. She is trying to seduce him. There's nothing that's stopping him from committing Zina. But what does he say? Paula? La
la COVID la perfect to me. In Hunan be a Santa.
Indeed he your shit. He tells the lady, your husband, my master, he gave me a good house. How can I betray him? How can I betray your husband and he admonishes the lady with the brothers and sisters in Islam. This shows the amount of taqwa even after going through all of the challenges from the well to being sold as a slave. And now he's in the house of the Minister of Egypt. And now the lady is trying to seduce him. His upbringing was so good that he had the taqwa of Allah subhanho wa Taala the fear of Allah subhana wa tada that prevented him. So why is no longer any new ideas and I'm talks about the seven people who will be shaded on the day of piano when there will be no shade
other than the shade of Allah Subhana Medina, seven individuals, and one of them
is a beautiful, rich lady calls him He says, I fear Allah subhanho wa Taala I fear Allah subhana wa sallam said I don't you live to whom Allah on a day when there will be no shade at all. In another narration was realized. While he was in talks about three individuals, they were journeying. They were joining, they want to take a journey, and it started to rain heavily. The narration goes along the lines of these words, these three individuals, they take refuge in a cave, and while they were in the cave of Boulder, rock rolls down and blocks the entrance. Now they have no way of getting out of the cave, they have no way of getting out of the cave, then the three individuals they discuss
and they come to a conclusion to let us do this that has mentioned to Allah subhanho wa Taala our good deeds, the best of our good deeds, and let us seek the help of Allah subhanho wa Taala through those good deeds, this is a permissible form of tawassul A permissible form of diversity, where you mentioned one of your deeds, the best of your deeds or one of your good deeds, and you make the ad to Allah subhanho wa Taala through your own good deeds. This is a permissible form of tawassul accord the teachings of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So one individual he cries out Yeah, Allah. I have already I had the good habit of milking my animals because he was a shepherd. I
used to milk my animals and I used to bring the milk home, and I would not feed my family. In other words, my wife and my children until my parents had drunk of that milk. One day I go home, and I got a bit late. So one day when I went home, my parents had fallen asleep. My parents had fallen asleep. So I went by my parents and I waited by them with the bowl of milk, my children were crying around me hungry, but I waited until my parents woke up and until they had Frank they are filled from the milk. And afterwards I fed my family. Yeah, life had done this only for your sake, help us out of this predicament out of this problem. The minute he made the dua, the Boulder, the rock moved a
little bit, but it wasn't enough for them to go up. The second individual he cries out to Allah, Allah, there was this cousin sister of mine, I loved her so much, and I desired her so much. I approached her and I wanted to commit something wrong with her and she was a poor person, she was suffering out of poverty. She was a destitute relative of mine. She said, If you pay me this amount of money, this amount of money, I will agree to do whatever you want to do. So I somehow earned that amount of money, I paid it to her. And then I was about to commit.
You know, adultery, I was about to commit something wrong with her. And in the narration, it mentioned he that he was seated so close to her. He was seated so close to her when she said fear Allah, fear online disregard. The minute she said that I got up and I left your life, I did this solely for yourself, for your sake, help us out of this problem. Once again, the rocks removed the little budget, it was not enough for them to leave the fine and individual he cries out to Allah, Allah. There was this work of mine, I agreed to pay him an amount of money. But then before I could pay him the amount of money he finished his work and he left, he left and that money that his wages,
his salary, I invested it in my own business, whatever the business was, I invested it and
He returns after a long period of time, after a long period of time, his investment had doubled had tripled. There were so many animals now that belonged to him. He returns after a long period of time he comes to me and he says, Oh slaver for law, do you remember? I am this worker so and so can you please pay me my wages that he just asked for the amount that he owed, say, if it was 1000 rupees or 2000 rupee or perhaps just the amount the wages, the man's looked at that man and said, you can see all these animals, all these animals belong to you, because your money, your wages, I invested it, and it profited in double, triple this, all of this belongs to you. The man said, Are you joking
with me? Oh, stay away from law. And this man said, No, I'm not joking with you. In reality, all of this belongs to you. And the man quickly gathered everything and he left now this man prays to Allah, Allah, if I did this sincerely for your sake, help us out of this problem. And the rock moved away completely, the rock moved away completely made your brothers and sisters in Islam, coming back to the story of us valleys, that was lamps that we may ended swiftly
from there, what happens it does not end there he was thrown into prison use of Allah is Allah was arrested. So just imagine put yourself in the shoes of
one challenge after another is not ending from the well to being a slave from being a slave to being imprisoned in jail. And it is not him there, he interprets the dreams of two individuals and he tells them to tell the king that he has been imprisoned unjustly, those two individuals one is executed, and the other one forgets to inform the king. After a long period of time, philosophy city builder as in in, he remains in the prison for some time. And after some time, the king sees a dream. Now the king sees a dream 17 cows eating seven fat cows. Now the king wanted an interpretation for the dream. That's when this individual who was used while he was a lamb cellmate
in the prison, he remembers about use vajrasattva salaam, and he tells the king about use of violence and that was enough. And that's when us valleys rancho santa was taken out of prison, he interprets the King's dream. And then he was appointed in charge of the Treasury in charge of food and provisions. And that's when his family comes back, long story. But after all of the challenges, after all of these challenges, he bought them it's so much of patience, that after all of the challenges his family comes to him now, and then they realize that oh so and so his use of he is in such a high position now. And they
just as how in the dream, they all fall down in sajida. But bear in mind, this was not a Saturday I have a bad day. It was not a Saturday of worship. It was a Saturday to aim a Saturday to mark respect and honor and this was permitted for the previous nations. We on the other hand, we are only permitted to bow down unto Allah subhanho wa Taala anyway to wrap up the story My dear brothers and sisters in Islam, I leave you all with this piece of advice and that is, however many challenges you go through life never lose hope in Allah subhanho wa Taala at times these trials these challenges are blessings in disguise. Never lose hope in Allah subhanho wa Taala have firm trust in Allah
subhanho wa Taala woman yes our Kayla adelante for high school, the one who relies on last behind him was Allah Allah azza wa jal is sufficient for him, while many
of whom have Raja, the one who fears Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah, Allah will make a way out for him from every problem as long as you fear Allah and as long as you rely on Allah subhanho wa Taala so never lose hope in the mercy of Allah subhanho wa Taala never lose hope in Allah azza wa jal place your trust firmly in Allah subhanho wa Taala and put your foot forward Allah azzawajal will look after you and fear Allah subhana wa Jalla be conscious of him during every single second of your lives and you will attain success in this world as well as the hereafter.
