			Ala truffle MBI well, more so you

Lee Hill must see well, how Noah Quwata illa de la la li la Lim.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:38
			Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds Peace and blessings on his prophet muhammad sallallahu alayhi
wa salam, after saints lands to you We ask Allah, our Lord, our Creator, our goal, our return our
originator, we asked him for his acceptance of our any of our good deeds to purify our our intention
and our hearts from hypocrisy. And from doing any kind of check with him, we ask Allah to
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			give us wide to give us
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:46
			knowledge and understanding
		
00:01:48 --> 00:02:01
			and wide sustenance and on a love we utterly depend to him is our goal is no power mic, except that
of Allah will already be to Him. Brothers Sisters carrying on from
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:06
			really where we left off last time,
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:15
			I mentioned that we were going to look at we finished with the first sort of section of
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:24
			or you could say the second section of Hadith 14. Let me remind this of the Hadith in case there's
new people who joined us.
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:39
			Of course, it is always difficult for new people joining them what they missed before of course, but
I hope and pray people still benefit if they miss things and also for people who have not been there
from the beginning of the 14 these classes.
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:45
			So I'm sorry if there's stuff I've covered and I tried to
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:49
			I'm not trying to fall off the questioning at the end.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:03:07
			But if I've answered something in detail, I don't like answering it then, in few words, because it
can give a different impression, especially if it's a more complex issue. So just to remind us of
Hadith, a hadith of Robbia Lasha
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:09
			or MA who
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:26
			and the Massoud Rhodiola who unco Paul, all of us who live sallallahu alayhi wa sallam lay down
warmly in Muslims in Lubbock, Dallas, as it was Zanni when nefs will be nefs. What tactically Dini
Hill, methodically Chema.
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:30
			Allahu Bihari, one Muslim
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:37
			reporter of the Lebanon Massoud at the mercy of Allah salAllahu Salam said the
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:45
			spelling of a blood of a Muslim cannot be done except in three situations.
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:58
			And after a failure was Zanni the married person committing adultery life for a life and the one who
leaves the dean and separates from
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:02
			the the pajama community.
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:10
			So the first part is lie your finger down movement muslimin because not really
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:38
			allowed to spill the blood of a Muslim and that's the part I want to focus on today. Specifically,
or part of that anyway, this is the topic is more comprehensive than that. We dealt with a theme was
early in her great detail the issue of adultery, fornication, Zina, and all the things surrounding
it for the last few sessions.
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:41
			What
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:52
			we want to focus on partly on today is the dignity of the human beings not just a Muslim, but as the
human being here mentioned the Muslim.
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:59
			That's not to say that the blood of the disbelievers can be spilled
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			Have willy nilly any old cow
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:30
			and we must not misunderstand from disbelief that but you see, in the case of this believer who's at
war, then it becomes legal to spill the blood in a war situation that's the only perhaps exception
you can add to this for a disbeliever so wouldn't be three then. So, this is why it mentioned that
the Muslim here sometimes the word Muslim is used in a
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:42
			general sense by the office as well. But it can mean the human being in one Hadith for example, the
Prophet SAW Allah Islam which is authentic, is reported to have said
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:48
			and Muslim men Saleemul Muslim men Celie
		
00:05:50 --> 00:06:01
			men selling Muslim all mainly Sandy he were merely Muslim is the one from whose hand and Tong
Muslims assets
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:59
			so you before you run into the idea that this means just Muslims people like a no way other scholars
have said notice is referring and the psyche actually reports this and I mentioned this before the
same Hadith with different words, which shows you the interchange of Muslim with an S and the site
your reports are different authentically from a prophesy some saying I'll Muslim men Salomon NAS Soo
Min Salomon Natsu Maria de y melissani. Mila Santi women Yeti, Muslim is the one from whom people
human beings are safe from his or her and odd. Yeah, so I've made my point how a nurse and Muslim
can its general use of language. Yeah, and I mentioned this similar for Rachel as well to mean a
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:03
			person not a man only many times this is how
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:27
			classical speech was and can be in everyday language. People don't talk with definitions. It's just
general statement. So here it can cover the human beings anyway. So this point is about safeguarding
the life of people.
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:53
			Yeah, and all of that is linked with the dignity of Kurama that ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala created human
beings with Allah subhanho wa Taala says in Surah Bani Israel from 17 Verse 70, Allah smart Allah
says, Well nobody can run then he gonna walk well now who will be well?
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:56
			What was Acuna
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:02
			may not buy ye bath Eva for Bill now whom Allah Cassie
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:08
			Colaco we
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:22
			Indeed, indeed, we have honored the Children of Adam, Children of Adam isn't referring us to Muslim
human beings we Allah saying these on them, given them around Rama,
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:38
			nobility these creation and we carried them on the land and the sea last time the means available
for carrying them on the lands and in London the sea was Acuna whom may not call you
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:54
			and we nourish them from all that which is wholesome and good. Allah Munich Allah saying, we
provided human beings with food that with as well for any body about new food and bring and we
		
00:08:55 --> 00:09:02
			will football now whom Yeah, and we exalted them. Yeah. distinguish them
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:09
			over much of Allah saying what we created what Allah created from his creatures
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:23
			distinguish them with real distinguishing Yeah or or exalted them. Yeah this is a crown of all human
beings that Allah smart Allah mentioned in the, in the Quran.
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:30
			So other verses talking about the Kurama of human beings Allah smartglasses
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:38
			law pandahall optimal in Santa Fe, Sunny Tahoe we
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:59
			that were indeed We created the human being in the best of forms the best of forms. Duck we came
here doesn't mean the best of outward appearance you know, many people think that means best
physically No, no best as a whole. The human being and this is again and
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:19
			IoT is linked with the Kurama and nobility of the human being. And that idea is there in the very
beginning when Allah SmartArt creates So human beings seem to be angels with the color of Bukal Bala
eager to in nature I feel Audi, Holly if
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:28
			and when your Lord remember when your Lord said to the angels surely I'm about going to create for
on Earth
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:31
			on Earth Khalifa.
		
00:10:33 --> 00:11:15
			Khalifa Khalifa many people translate it as being a vice Jarrett, a representative of God. Yeah, it
can have that meaning the Khalifa also means comes from the word, the one that has generations.
Yeah, hope that that's both generation after generation that keeps on going on through reproduction.
So you can have that meaning and the meaning of Vice Chair currency as well which is an honorable
position, isn't it? For bunny Adam, for the children of Adam, when they take it on board and take
that is that is a secondary matter but Allah smartbug greeted them with that nobility
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:23
			it is mentioned in Sahih Muslim
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:31
			from even me Laila that place even sad and Sahel if * Naef
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:37
			to see ya this is in the land of the
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:45
			Persians Yeah, the Zoroastrians a firewall I suppose in Ireland
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:58
			little we'll call the SIA for Marga. Big imagine as a former, these are two Sahabi. And funeral went
by so they stood up.
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:12
			Yeah, they stood up out of respect for the dead, passing by of the funeral the beer for Kilala Houma
it was sent to them in a hermit and
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:35
			they said to them, he's the one who's passing by this janazah this dead person is from the local
people. They're the Muslims. In other words, they're not believers. Yeah, for call. For both of
them, what did they say? They said, in Rasul Allah He sallallahu alayhi salam, Margaret V Janaza.
Upon
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:43
			for karma Fokin they said at the time of the Prophet Prophet sighs Salam.
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:47
			Whether a funeral
		
00:12:49 --> 00:13:19
			procession went by, and the Prophet saw some stood up, and it was said to him, Prophesy Salam in now
who Yeah, who D. Yeah, it is. It is it? Is it a Jew? Yeah, for all what are the pockets? I'm saying?
He said at least nevsun Is it not a soul? Is it not a being a person? This is that dignity and
Kurama respect for the human being as prophesized and teaching from this hadith
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:25
			the idea of
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:42
			absolute duck when being created in the best form of form, again, comes out when the last one says
all of us, T will or will have was what I call a fat * then as soon as he lay Hill mostly,
		
00:13:44 --> 00:14:27
			as in sort of our life motto says, He created the heavens and the earth in truth. Yeah, and he
shaped you. And what an excellent shape. Yeah, what an excellent shape. And to him is the goal or
the return, what an excellent shape here, form. Again, it doesn't even it doesn't need to be limited
to just outward form. It's talking about the human being, as a being, and in fact, the essence of
human being the distinguishing factor of a human being and his is his or her nobility. I don't have
to say his or her when I say he, the human being of course, it covers both. But you know, in the
world nowadays, sometimes people get very touchy about that.
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:38
			Anyway, I don't want to be dragged into that discussion. But anyway, the human beings real nobility
is not, is not really
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:59
			not especially in the physical form, yet but it is in the intellect and the mind and the heart. That
is what really that that free will and choice that Allah smart Allah gave me the intellect and the
ability to learn that Alas, my boss, gave to the human being as he taught the names to Adam. Yeah,
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:15
			Alayhis Salam in paradise before even set the human beings down that ability to name and to learn
the intellect that he gave, which even the angels did possess, they were stumped by, by that. Yeah,
that perhaps is the real nobility.
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:19
			So
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:22
			in regards to
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:29
			the dignity of the human being, if we
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:38
			do that
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:42
			if we're talking about dignity of the human being,
		
00:15:45 --> 00:16:10
			how does that translate? And the translation of that? Perhaps we can say, and we get that idea from
Islam, is that the human being has been given that special position, everything in the heavens and
the earth Alas, Monica says was Saqqara. Yeah. Yeah, we made it available was Saqqara, like math is
on our field, I will be Jeremy
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:13
			enough he that he can
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:27
			follow me on and he is subjected to all that is in the hills and all that is the earth all from Him.
Verily in that assigns for people who think and reflect,
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:42
			think and reflect linking with human beings may be a special that's bringing out a speciality of the
human being, by the way, at the end of the eye as well. But everything being subjugated made
available for the human beings. Yeah.
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:46
			That is part of the Kurama
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:50
			or the nobility and the human being being a
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:53
			part of that is
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:55
			the
		
00:16:56 --> 00:17:22
			safe safeguarding of every human being saw as part of it. Safeguarding life. Yes, safeguarding his
or her honor. Safeguarding his consciousness, his decision? Yeah, his choice. Yeah, that is part and
parcel of the dignity of the human being that Islam actually, Islam actually gives? Yeah, Islam
actually gives us
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:25
			an actually.
		
00:17:28 --> 00:17:32
			That includes the choice of religion, choice of religion,
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:36
			family, home capital, women who moved men
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:42
			from them, or those who are disbelievers, and those who are
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:56
			believers. Let's not assume that in the Quran. Allah is not assessed. Equal raw. Deen caca, Jana
domainer La Jolla. There is no compulsion in religion. Yeah.
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:31
			grossed guide, yet truth have been made distinct and clear from that which is deviant and false.
Yeah, I was not like me, but that the choice is for the human being. With the nobility, Allah
created the mind the intellect and the choice to either come forward and submit or to reject. Yeah,
that's not what we'll have to mail what people say, the truth is from your Lord, yours in the plural
your Lord. Amen. Sure. fairly open mean, women should
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:48
			react for so whoever wills then let him or her believe and whoever wills let him or her reject.
Yeah, of course there's consequences to that that's a different story. But the choice in the end is
there so that's why
		
00:18:50 --> 00:19:01
			when you look at the Allah ma who dealt with possibly Sharia and if any of you stood in my classes,
we are the objectives of the Sharia. And
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:09
			this is not something new, but Allah ma of deep understanding of religion. Yeah, the beacons of
light of the Allah.
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:26
			Throughout the centuries mentioned this idea of the objectives of Sharia and especially saw it from
early time especially to the likes of Ben northiam among bizarrely before that as well. The Imam was
early
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:59
			and then the likes of not via MacGibbon Tamia volume writes a lot about Imam Rafi and a shot to be
of course from the Malik here as well. There write extensively across the Sharia the objective the
Sharia Olimar divided the the rules and regulations of Sharia into three major areas. Yeah. The top
they put a Zodiac yeah the absolute necessities which which
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:15
			Sherea came to cover the second they put ahead yet yeah, this is an the third attack scene yet they
put them in this priority but with within each of them are things which are
		
00:20:16 --> 00:21:07
			fun and things which are haram. It's not a test you need to do to do with just little matters that
are not important. No, but the reality of, of you could say, the highest and absolute importance.
Yeah. And how do you add a crucial because they are facilitations or robots for difficult situations
to facilitate being able to live, for example, a person dying can't be dead or consumed but that's
all the choice they have. They're allowed to eat it for protecting lives. So what briefly the jury
has to do with the dignity of the human being amongst a liberal Dr. The absolute necessities are
protection, protection of deem, deem many Allah ma classically in present day say protection of Deen
		
00:21:07 --> 00:21:26
			from Islam means protection of Islam and Muslims and the Islamic religion no others that's not
actually the best understanding here as I said earlier, the best understanding from the Quran and
Sunnah is the protection of Deen means also the protection of choosing the deen
		
00:21:28 --> 00:21:33
			from the auroria Yeah, that you have given the human beings a choice.
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:54
			Yeah, the idea was never that the soul they have to submit otherwise they're going to be killed that
would be against the Quran and Sunnah. And actually, unfortunately many, many people not an
insignificant number of Imams of the centuries till this day how this UPS a topsy turvy idea
		
00:21:55 --> 00:22:23
			Yeah, but actually here protection of Deen protection of conscience in other words to choose which
beam to follow or to follow know the so protection of deem it means that protection of life yeah the
nobility is shown in the protection of life that's why killing killing is haram which is what we're
dealing with this in the Hadith law Yeah, hallo, Omri in Muslim in Illa.
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:34
			The taking on splitting of blood of a Muslim is not allowed except and here Muslim human beings is
not allowed
		
00:22:35 --> 00:22:36
			except
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:38
			in
		
00:22:42 --> 00:22:46
			in those situations and Allah subhanaw taala he mentioned that
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:52
			further Of course I lost my plot when it comes to
		
00:22:56 --> 00:23:33
			killing while at that toll on masculinity how Ramallah will will help do not kill any person except
that and do not kill any person that Allah has made haram prohibited except in the way of justice
and truth as far as all Omar said that's for the quality the government for law to establish
including in this hadith all said this is to do with the law not for people to take law in their own
hands and do willy nilly what they wish
		
00:23:35 --> 00:23:37
			me nicely Valley Yeah.
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:45
			As it mentioned for a last month a message in the Quran
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:52
			for bunnies right yield but it's revelation is for us as well.
		
00:23:55 --> 00:23:56
			Mankato land Nelson
		
00:23:58 --> 00:24:00
			Yeah, man, Potala, knifes nevsun
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:04
			belaid in this thing.
		
00:24:06 --> 00:24:16
			And Mr. Patil and NASA Jamia yeah whoever kills a person. Yeah. Not out of retribution for murder.
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:59
			Yes, I thought enough, simple enough. Same old facade in fill out of one missed that bit of
corruption and in the land. Yeah. These things are to be decided by the government and the law not
for you know, Joe Bloggs down the road and Mr. Abdullah, on live down the street says, Well, this
neighbor of mine has done facade on the land. I'm gonna go and kill him. Yeah, no, this is for the
government's to decide. So what is corruption in the land? So whoever kills except it's retribution
for murder again, to be decided by the courts or by the government for facade corruption in the
land. Can't forget
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:26
			And Nana Patil and NASA Jamia it says though that person has killed the whole of humanity. woman
asked Yeah, forget and then there after year after year after year NASA Jamia, whoever it saves the
life of a person. It's as though they said the libeled or life of the whole of humanity. That is the
sanctity of life. That is a the nobility of all human life.
		
00:25:27 --> 00:26:16
			Which Quran and Sunnah a bear. And that's why it's part of the rule yet. Protection of all life.
Yeah. Which has been indicated indirectly in the studies, people tend to jump in and focus on the
three, the three that I mentioned, which is the married person committing adultery and the life for
a life of murder, and the one leaving the deen and separated from each other, they focus on that,
but the first part of it is really crucial because the acil are the foundation. Yeah, the very
foundation of, of being of existence is that life is protected. That's why it means it's giving you
the sense of but you missed the beginning part, which is the dignity of life, but it's bringing out
		
00:26:16 --> 00:26:23
			Yeah, so the from the rudia protection of the choice of religion, protection of life.
		
00:26:24 --> 00:26:31
			Protection of the mind the apple, yeah. Protection of apple and apple here
		
00:26:33 --> 00:27:04
			means again, to do with consciousness, it's linked again with choice. Yeah. And hence, Allah ma
mentioned that anything that inebriate or destroys from drugs or or alcohol pharma, etc, that is
being made forbidden Yeah. To protect the mind so that it's because that's one of the very
characters of the nobility of the human being Yeah.
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:13
			The protection of wealth of a person and property not to you serve not to flee the thief not to
steal
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:22
			these and finally, the protection of an honor of a person Your Honor, or
		
00:27:23 --> 00:27:39
			a missile Anessa both used interchangeably but actually means the same thing in the end and hence
the the forbidding on Xena, which is what we talked about before. Yeah. Because it's not seen as
honorable it's seen as dirty the wrong way
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:45
			to for human beings to live their lives. Yeah. And
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:48
			which we covered last time but
		
00:27:49 --> 00:28:04
			and part of that is slander being protected from the honorable person being protected. That's why
slander is haram Riba is haram they're from the major sins Yeah, to spread slander rumors and even
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:17
			backbiting people Yeah, these are come under dosing which have been made haram Yeah, because it's in
line with protecting protecting the honor and nobility of human beings.
		
00:28:20 --> 00:28:22
			So I mentioned that because
		
00:28:23 --> 00:28:26
			nobility is very much liquid that but when I talk about
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:32
			the foundation and I brought that out when we also
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:39
			dealt with in Hadith number eight
		
00:28:41 --> 00:28:53
			for those who weren't there, you should have reference to the recording of it we are integrate
detail but that one is a well misunderstood well misrepresented.
		
00:28:55 --> 00:28:59
			Miss transmit mistranslated and and and Miss
		
00:29:01 --> 00:29:07
			explained Hadith and but very dangerous to battle and NASA had by yesterday
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:24
			I have been ordered to fight with people until the declare the shahada, etc. If you look that people
think that that's the foundation Yeah, a bit some people got the idea that I have been sent just to
go and kill people but look at
		
00:29:25 --> 00:29:59
			to come to that understanding. You've got to be twisted in your mind. Because Islam What does Islam
means submission and peace and you can't ignore all the ayat of the Quran and the Hadith prophesies
about good behavior, about trust about kindness, about mercy about forgiveness, and his life and his
character. about patience. Yeah, overlooking and throw the ball to one side and say no, the basis is
of a killing of it and we put a context of attendees yet after mentioning it
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:41
			Uh, the fact that a nurse here in that hadith doesn't mean all of humanity. Yeah. And it was
referring specifically that context. And in fact, the context needs to be seen one Hadith which was
authentic broadcast context, if you remember and that was hadith of Ali Abdullah, who and who was
going into battle at the request of the Prophet on the day of hybrid with the enemies who'd been
fighting the unbelievers and being Yeah, perpetrating attacks on Medina. So, the war had been
declared on Medina prophesy, so wasn't taken the offensive, but the defensive, in protection, even
going to hybrid it was a defensive attack.
		
00:30:43 --> 00:31:32
			And when Elisa Golan promised us and gives me the banner promising in victory is going forward. He
asked the province Yaroslav, what am I fighting on? Then the prophesy Islam said the words of the
Saudis. Yeah, that means no particular nests. Yeah. similar words that in other words, you're
fighting. You're fighting the enemy. Yeah, who have declared war. But even then you stop fighting
when they do shahada and Trump brings out other things about a great submitting about making peace
that we are foremost in making peace. Yeah. And Jizya for those who are war mongers Yeah, about
people who were soldiers. Yeah. But they had to be charged this tax to stop them prevent them from
		
00:31:32 --> 00:32:13
			taking up arms. Arms again. Yeah, there's so the Hadith context is a warfare context. But Islam and
life isn't war. The foundation is war. Yeah, so many people not only misrepresented that hadith but
misrepresent the ayat in the Quran which they called higher to save the various opinions of which is
to say was most popularly as I mentioned with the bat particular Hadith number eight, iron number
five in Surah Tober where Allah is not in fact events seller for us, we will have forum fuckable
Mushrikeen. At Heiser widget to move home. So when the
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:37
			the the sacred months have ended, then kill the mushriks wherever you find them. That's not you
can't just picked up verse out of context. Yeah, it's talking about warfare, talking about the wish
the king who had broken the treaty with the power of Sasana still going around a plundering and
attacking
		
00:32:38 --> 00:33:14
			believers, they were still at war. So that's the context. That's not the normal situation. Some
people use this idea from scholars and presented a deviant view, a bottle opinion, saying that now
the the hustle after this idea is that we are war and we kill everybody who disbelievers. Whether
from which pigs or from Christians and Jews until they submit, that's the one you kill. That's the
status quo. This is absolute nonsense. They actually using this as I mentioned before,
		
00:33:16 --> 00:33:18
			abrogated wrongly
		
00:33:20 --> 00:33:39
			Yeah, deviant li more than 100 Plus verses of the Quran and the very character of a single LaSalle
Allah Salam, all to do with somebody all to do with forgiveness, all to do with Dawa all to do with
a kindness etc, all thrown out the window. Allah, Allah has got guidance didn't come like that.
		
00:33:40 --> 00:33:41
			And in fact
		
00:33:45 --> 00:33:58
			I don't want to go into that anymore. But that's just to bring you out. The idea again, but the
status quo is that of dignity for human beings. Yes. Safety for human beings. Yeah.
		
00:34:00 --> 00:34:57
			Oh, mostly men. So men. nasil melissani. Here you I mean, yesterday. Have you flooded a lot on the
same site here, which I mentioned earlier in the talk today? Yeah, Muslim is the one from whose
hands that human beings and his tongue that they feel safe and progress as a youth the same root
word. Salima? Yeah. And as he's using the word Muslim, meaning the very meaning of you being Muslim
is supposed to be this. Yeah. So the status quo that is the status quo? Yeah. And even when we are
actually critical of people who are disbelievers, or idol worshipers, etc, etc. We are critical of
the doing the behavior but the person we must concrete like dirt and we must look down upon and
		
00:34:57 --> 00:34:59
			judge them as they're going to * file we decide
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:43
			Episode we're going to hellfire because we don't know what the end of people are going to be. Yeah
Allah in the Quran we're not denying the Quran we say what the Quran says those who disbelieve those
who cheat those who deceive, etc, etc about those kinds of characters will lead to hellfire all from
the ether prophesized, but of sharks why in a particular person we can't point the finger and say,
we can say these are deeds, which are the deeds of the people of hellfire wrote You be careful,
don't go into these don't fall that way. Don't follow shut down. Don't listen to whispers of shit.
That's this is all fine. Yeah, but we're not. We're not in a position. Any of us to judge anybody.
		
00:35:43 --> 00:36:09
			That's not being judgmental? Yeah, if people don't want to hear that they can't just point the
finger and say you're being judgmental. No. And this is, again, supposed to be doing in the best
manner. Yeah, in a loving way. If you can't do it in a loving way to people, then don't bother doing
it. But as we'll see from a hadith later on, but at the stage, don't keep your mouth closed, if
you're going to insult people.
		
00:36:10 --> 00:36:12
			So, the
		
00:36:15 --> 00:36:16
			the
		
00:36:17 --> 00:36:22
			same via the the, with the dignity of the human being,
		
00:36:24 --> 00:36:33
			is to be critical of what people are doing, but the file the person, yeah. Treat people in a
dignified manner.
		
00:36:34 --> 00:36:46
			Not in a cruel manner, and not in an arrogant manner, looking down on people. And that's what we got
taught by our teachers in the 80s and 90s.
		
00:36:47 --> 00:36:53
			In regards to dollar people in the field of dollar, especially know, this kind of thing, and
		
00:36:55 --> 00:36:56
			there's a book that was
		
00:36:59 --> 00:37:00
			yeah, I remember
		
00:37:02 --> 00:37:15
			our dear teacher and brother, Farooq Morales father, I will start the Koran Murad Rahim Allah, I
remember him distinctly teaching is that
		
00:37:18 --> 00:37:46
			it is not about winning the argument, but it is about winning the hearts. Yeah, that's what we
remember. And this is when you're talking and doing Dawa, to people of all kinds of backgrounds.
Now, however evil their life must appear. But the idea one of the things is not about winning the
argument and looking superior looking better, but it's about winning the heart, even though you may
lose the argument.
		
00:37:47 --> 00:38:16
			So it's about winning the hearts of people. It's about touching the hearts of people with truth.
Many people became Muslim just with their neighbors or their colleagues the way I treated them and
and they didn't do any preaching on them. The ones standing with Reed giving lectures are standing
at Hyde Park. I mean, long discussions and arguments. In fact, our teachers in our certainly there
were critical of people doing the kind of Dawa, which involved involved debates.
		
00:38:17 --> 00:38:21
			Yeah, MINOURA monada
		
00:38:23 --> 00:38:32
			in Arabic, and Maha is different file monada have muhabura, which is conversation, because that
brings out
		
00:38:33 --> 00:39:01
			when Artesia and Mohan Robbins out, gentleness, kindness, listening to the other Manasa is a debate
that tends to bring out the worst in approach of, of putting somebody else down and making your
argument look good. It's not the best way. I'm not saying people don't embrace Islam from it, and
they have done but it's not the best way, I believe, of doing Dawa. So anyway,
		
00:39:04 --> 00:39:14
			I haven't even gone in into the topic I wanted to cover on the back of the dignity of the human
being.
		
00:39:18 --> 00:39:19
			And that topic
		
00:39:22 --> 00:39:35
			was to do with organ donation. I don't think I'm gonna have time to go into it today. But what I
want to do is to finish from the sight of dignity
		
00:39:37 --> 00:39:38
			of the human being
		
00:39:40 --> 00:39:47
			today with even in an hour saying about the warfare situation, not being the status quo.
		
00:39:49 --> 00:39:59
			peace, kindness, justice. Yeah. Forgiveness overlooking pardoning people. That is the status quo for
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:23
			believe that goes in line with the dignity of all human beings. Yeah, of all human beings, whether
they believe as disbelievers, whether they're five worshippers, idol worshipers, whatever gender
they are, whatever gender they claim to be. Yeah. Whether the drunkards or whether they're thieves
whether they're in the prison or not,
		
00:40:24 --> 00:40:26
			or whether they're murderers. Yeah.
		
00:40:28 --> 00:40:32
			We, of course, a bore a behold the act.
		
00:40:33 --> 00:40:42
			Yeah, but not the person. And that's not easy to do. Of course, that requires reflection and
thinking, is it novel?
		
00:40:43 --> 00:40:56
			In, in theory is easy for me to say, in practice, it's not that easy to practice is it? So we have a
Hadith of the Prophet saw someone just remember
		
00:40:57 --> 00:41:01
			that from the Bani Israel, you probably saw some said there was
		
00:41:02 --> 00:41:15
			a person a big scholar, and what ducky God fearing person. And he was so pious, and God fearing that
when he used to sit,
		
00:41:17 --> 00:41:22
			yeah, Allah subhanaw taala used to send a cloud over him to shade him from the sun.
		
00:41:25 --> 00:41:25
			So
		
00:41:26 --> 00:41:28
			at one time when he's sitting there,
		
00:41:30 --> 00:41:35
			this person comes, who is known to be
		
00:41:36 --> 00:41:41
			a bad person in society. Yeah, fast sick, you could say
		
00:41:43 --> 00:42:00
			somebody who's into all sorts. So this bad person tries to come and sit next to this saintly person
who is under the shade cloud, and comes near to try and share the shade.
		
00:42:01 --> 00:42:02
			And this person
		
00:42:05 --> 00:42:16
			come up while I forgotten the exact words of this, but I'm giving you the gist of the story. This
person was a saint, the godly person looked down on this fantastic
		
00:42:18 --> 00:42:35
			person whose life was upside down. And like looks down and saying hey, what are you doing sitting
next to me under the shade? Why are you sharing this meaning somebody filthy like you dirty
behavior? How dare you come and try and share this cloud with me? Yeah.
		
00:42:36 --> 00:42:47
			So and publicize them said, so Allah smart, I remove the shade the cloud shade from him and put it
over this fantastic person.
		
00:42:50 --> 00:42:53
			Another story, which is an authentic hadith,
		
00:42:54 --> 00:42:57
			publicize them mentioned is that there were two friends.
		
00:42:59 --> 00:43:22
			And they'd grown up together known each other all the lives one went down the road of not being a
good person fast, sick, doing those getting into all sorts of bad. Yeah. And the other one became
godly. A person of religion and close to God doing good works and worshiping Allah.
		
00:43:23 --> 00:43:24
			And every now and then,
		
00:43:25 --> 00:43:29
			yeah, after time pass, they used to meet after some time.
		
00:43:30 --> 00:43:45
			And every time they used to meet the godly person would say to the the bad person, you really need
to stop what you're doing is not right. Yeah, this is very bad what you're doing, you should be
doing this and doing that.
		
00:43:46 --> 00:44:13
			And then it meets him again after some time and be a bit more harsh. Yeah. Then it meets him again.
And the final time he met him, and he really upset the bad person. Because he became very angry with
him and said, This is disgusting what you're doing. And he said, You are going to go to hellfire.
Yeah, you are going you're going to be put in hellfire.
		
00:44:15 --> 00:44:21
			I'm telling you, you are one of the dwellers of hellfire. That's the kind of statement he made
		
00:44:22 --> 00:44:24
			like a judgmental statement.
		
00:44:25 --> 00:44:31
			So the publicize them said they were raised up on the day of judgment.
		
00:44:33 --> 00:44:37
			And Allah subhanho wa Taala first challenged the godly person
		
00:44:38 --> 00:44:39
			Yeah.
		
00:44:40 --> 00:44:49
			And said to him, who gay who gave you the right to take my throne and make a judgment on anybody.
		
00:44:51 --> 00:44:56
			And the last one o'clock, cast them into hellfire instead and forgive the other person.
		
00:44:58 --> 00:44:58
			So these
		
00:44:59 --> 00:44:59
			are
		
00:45:00 --> 00:45:00
			These are
		
00:45:02 --> 00:45:51
			authentic stories on roadside some, but they're they're a warning again for us, if anything of not
being judgmental about people, and it brings up again, for us the idea of the dignity of the human
being not the taking possession of Allah subhanaw taala and of having a respect and kindness, which
is the way that's why we're not our Sanaka Illa Rahmatullah Allah mean, we have not sent you down
except the mercy to the oil creation. So here is Allah subhanaw taala, who's who's the Most
Merciful, the Most Compassionate, sends the most the mercy to the whole of creation, and sends as
rough mark is Quran. And then we have people interpreting Islam as that which came to kill as subdue
		
00:45:51 --> 00:46:05
			everybody who's a disbeliever. Either the subdue, become Muslim, otherwise, we'll chop the heads
off, I'll kill them. I mean, how far away? Has the apple fallen from the tree, as they say, in
English, to have that kind of interpretation coming out? Yeah.
		
00:46:07 --> 00:46:09
			That kind of interpreted coming out.
		
00:46:11 --> 00:46:22
			The mind boggles, as it says sometimes, but I'm afraid it is there to be found in the in the books,
as well as in presently ideas of people.
		
00:46:28 --> 00:46:30
			I'm going to stop there.
		
00:46:31 --> 00:46:46
			Today, I will have to cover the issue. Why do I link this with the issue of organ donation? Leave
your test with it because one of the reasons why some people objected to organ donation
		
00:46:49 --> 00:46:52
			is linked with the dignity of the human body.
		
00:46:54 --> 00:47:27
			They try to use that to to basically say, it is not allowed because the human body is being
dignified by Allah and therefore we cannot open it up dissected. Yeah, that's one of the things they
use only. I'm not going to open up the discussion on that, that I'm going to cover in Sharla in the
next lesson, and all the other arguments are presented by some people, and what the best opinion
with evidence in regards to blood donation and organ donation is
		
00:47:28 --> 00:47:32
			inshallah in the in the coming class next week, but as the lack of time Allah.
		
00:47:34 --> 00:47:51
			I think that's all I have to say today. If there's a question we've covered, please, the not the
floor, but the mic is open in sha Allah, if there's any questions in writing, suffer, please take
note and if you can read them out to me, as surely as well.
		
00:47:55 --> 00:47:56
			Yeah.
		
00:48:03 --> 00:48:10
			Anything, anybody? He can send it in writing or you can ask across the mic, no problem with that.
		
00:48:16 --> 00:48:17
			Complete silence.
		
00:48:20 --> 00:48:25
			Not always a good sign complete silence. Either it shows somebody's too busy
		
00:48:27 --> 00:48:34
			playing a game or eating their food which you're enjoying and they don't want to be stirred or they
didn't understand what I was talking about. It's done over their head.
		
00:48:37 --> 00:48:40
			Well, I suppose you could say it's
		
00:48:42 --> 00:48:43
			sorry.
		
00:48:48 --> 00:48:53
			You said that they were brought forth on the day of judgment, but that hasn't happened yet.
		
00:48:55 --> 00:48:55
			You
		
00:48:56 --> 00:49:01
			the Prophet sighs I'm giving you a picture on the day of judgment or what will happen
		
00:49:06 --> 00:49:07
			did you get that?
		
00:49:08 --> 00:49:13
			Yes. Thank you. Yeah. Yeah, that's what it means.
		
00:49:18 --> 00:49:20
			Any other questions or clarifications?
		
00:49:23 --> 00:49:36
			Of course, the Hadith number eight. I do. Distribute a shot of it today and exposition on it today.
Those who missed that it will be it is available. It's been recorded.
		
00:49:37 --> 00:49:49
			How sufferers going to get it to you as a different matter. I know some of you asked for other
recordings as well. I don't think there's been sorted yet. But I hope it will be sorted soon. So
this the whole thing is available.
		
00:49:52 --> 00:49:57
			Any other question? No other questions when you're getting off early today, it's only five to eight.
		
00:50:03 --> 00:50:26
			snarly fingers like Alicia, suede here along with Matala, welcome cyl, no, I haven't spoken to you
for a long time, okay? Handle Eliza lemak as a very important saying that Prophet peace be upon him
stood up for that funeral passing by so we should be attending funerals of non believers to be
talking about this in the past.
		
00:50:28 --> 00:50:43
			Yeah, and many of them are allowed for if you have friends or family who are non muslim or you are
allowed to attend funeral. I mean, what they meant was that you're not allowed to take part in the
service.
		
00:50:44 --> 00:50:55
			Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So if his Christian service were not Christian, so we're not going to partake of
that or if it's a Hindu service and the burning the body when I would really like to attend the
funeral.
		
00:50:57 --> 00:51:29
			You know what I mean? Yeah. So some of the things we have to keep in mind or what we accept on the
prophesy some didn't attend the funeral. But you know, in the end, perhaps we apply it to when a
funeral cars going by, that we nowadays it's not going by by carried by human beings on a horseback
and then people on the way on the streets, as it used to happen in all the world. And people will
stand up out of out of respect wouldn't. That was the practice. Nowadays, the cars just go by and
you're not really able to stand up. So yeah.
		
00:51:33 --> 00:51:37
			I hope that clarifies yesterday, thank you
		
00:51:42 --> 00:51:53
			see, even attending and standing. It doesn't contradict the fact that from the Quran saying for the
mustachian, that you're not allowed to ask for forgiveness for them.
		
00:51:54 --> 00:52:08
			Just because you stand up out of respect. You're not making a dua for forgiveness for them. Just
because you attend a funeral and not partake of the service. Doesn't mean you're automatically
asking for forgiveness for which is not allowed, of course.
		
00:52:10 --> 00:52:11
			Yeah.
		
00:52:12 --> 00:52:31
			That's family. Kim. Yeah, just want to just want to clarify that because I have been to a few a
Catholic funeral. And it was in the church, but I didn't take part in it. I just sat at the back.
And I didn't go to the grave. Graveyard. But it was just that a respect because it was
		
00:52:33 --> 00:52:43
			a Muslim who's, you know, who had converted? So it was her mother. So it was supporting her. So I
mean, that's what I did. And I thought it was okay.
		
00:52:46 --> 00:52:48
			Yeah, absolutely fine.
		
00:52:49 --> 00:52:56
			Chef just said that Rachael Marvel law, the grid chef, gosh, I don't know. He'd liked me calling the
grid Chef. Chef.
		
00:52:57 --> 00:53:04
			Rahim Allah who was the mom and scholar of Regent's Park. Some of you on here may know him. I'm
showing my age really.
		
00:53:05 --> 00:53:18
			He said back in the 80s. He gave permission for that kind of attendance sitting in the back of the
church not joining the service. And there's there's nothing wrong with having to go to the burial
ground. Nothing.
		
00:53:21 --> 00:53:25
			Right, Hey, yo, calm. We have a question from brothers arraign.
		
00:53:27 --> 00:53:29
			Was the Koran exclusive to humans and Jen?
		
00:53:33 --> 00:53:40
			Was the Quran exclusive to humans? And Jim? Oh, who else is going to be to?
		
00:53:41 --> 00:53:42
			What do they mean?
		
00:53:44 --> 00:53:48
			We only know of humans and Jim that Allah created yes, the answer would be yes, wouldn't it
		
00:53:49 --> 00:54:12
			and for the A Allah you don't become to cut the band brings that out which of the favours and
bounties of your Lord will you both deny its token to human and Jim, the two kinds of creation and
the prophesies of meeting the gym which I mentioned in spirit as well? Was it also for the whole of
creation as I didn't read that last time? Creation or perhaps for other unknown creations?
		
00:54:14 --> 00:54:40
			know we aren't we only know what we know Quran was sent to us through the prophets, Allah Salam,
yeah, prophesy, some did go. All we know is that he did meet with the jinn and the jinn are
addressed in the Quran. How much more about the jinn is very limited knowledge I've said before so
no we don't go into any other fields of it was sent to other people and other planets etc. Not
relevant to us but
		
00:54:41 --> 00:54:46
			Allah was also also says to general insula LEA will do listen to so
		
00:54:47 --> 00:54:48
			meaning you know
		
00:54:50 --> 00:55:00
			that's that's not saying there's no other creation that's just saying I only created gym and I
didn't create you know, everyone except for worshiping and serving me. Yeah me
		
00:55:00 --> 00:55:05
			You would indicate a Cron is only for the humans and Jim doesn't know doesn't really indicate it.
		
00:55:07 --> 00:55:16
			But the fact that the Quran says orderliness whereby in a typical Buddha there well for Han Quran
saying guidance for humanity
		
00:55:18 --> 00:55:20
			not guidance my angel for example
		
00:55:25 --> 00:55:26
			right
		
00:55:28 --> 00:55:44
			guide guidance for humans and yes secondarily you can say guidance for Jin and guidance of human
beings who are alive is an ESA guidance for this earth where we living in this life not a guidance
for birds not not guidance in the hereafter.
		
00:55:46 --> 00:55:47
			Not a guidance the dead
		
00:55:53 --> 00:55:54
			anything else?
		
00:55:58 --> 00:56:00
			No, okay.
