so some of the people companions the Prophet SAW Islam came to him, saying
to the prophets, Allah Salam, or messenger of Allah
the affluent people have run away with all the rewards their prayers we pray the fastest we fast
Yeah, but in addition to that, they give in charity for the excess from their wealth. So the prophets awesome said
as Allah not yet made things for you to give in charity.
Meaning even though you don't have wealth, like they do, surely, every Subhan Allah that you say, is a charity, every Allahu Akbar you say is a charity, every Alhamdulillah you say is a charity, every La ilaha illallah you say is a charity and
anyone doing a standing up for that which is right and just under will maruf is a charity. And anyone standing against anything which is Moncur and wrong
is a charity.
Then something he said which of course shocked them, not to surprise them. And in the sexual act of each one of you is a charity.
They said
or messenger of Allah?
Are you saying yeah, in brackets, are you saying if one of us comes and fulfills His desire, meaning with sexual *? Are you saying there'll be a reward in it for him?
prophesized love, so, do you not see
that where he to put
it
meaning to do it in a haram way would then not be sinful for him?
So
that would not be sinful. And likewise, if he then does it in a halal way, there will be as a reward for him. Notice the change the word from Sinatra to Azure here. So you the, the meaning of the the the idea of silica. So as I said, this hadith is one version taken from Sahih Muslim, it, of course, comes in other places.
And I'm going to give you some of the other verses because they give us a more complete understanding of what's going on.
And as
Imams Zaragoza says it is reported by Imam Behati in his addable Morford noted a sahih. Abu download athma the admission ban and if necessary, now. I'm going to give you some of the other versions
this one is in also Sahih Muslim and it's Abu Hurayrah Abu Hurayrah says
And now for Cara al muhajir in that the poor people from the Mahajan in the emigrants. This is in Medina, they came a toll Rasul Allah He Salas came upon the Messenger of Allah salAllahu Salam fatale and they said the Sahaba I love the foodie bedarra Just the affluent people have run away with
highest station that just means that all Allah in getting the highest station meaning because the doing modern as one name will mochi and in
that
comfort and bounty which is
established meaning in dunya and hereafter the getting of the benefits from that from the wealth for call.
The prophesy Salam said, Well, Mr. Zack, how's that? What do you mean? Palu they said, you said Lulu commando suddenly the prayers we pray why Asuna command assume the fastest we first we gotta set that owner while not a sudoku while you're Tikona Allah notic they are giving in charity and we are not giving in charity. And then if they're free slaves and we don't free slaves because we haven't gone well I'm gonna need the words that's part of the wealth isn't it? For colonists sort of license for the Messenger of Allah? If Allah ye limo come shake Shall I not inform you or teach you something to do Hakuna behave min Saba calm that you will reach with it those who went before you
meaning of good rewards were tasked with gonna be him and button and you will over outstrip and overtake those who come after you.
Meaning in a similar situation to you. Well, I have who don't ask don't I mean, come ILA, and there'll be nobody better than you from a better than you except, man. Sana Mithila masala don't accept the one who do similarly as to what you do. Palu they said Bella Yara so a lot of course tell us on Messenger of Allah. Call to sub Bihu number two Kabiru in our truck, Madona dubara Cooley Salatin, Salah son was ALLAH Athena Mara
do Subhana Allah Allahu Akbar Alhamdulillah after every Salah 33 times, yeah 33 times. So here's another version of the similar idea that's been taught with the and this is authentic as well.
So it has a parallel with the other Hadith of the TSB and Talia attack V and the tough meat. But the other Hadith the first one that we mentioned some time was of course contains more and then they said
for Raja for Perama hydrazine after some time they came back
these poor emigrants to the Messenger of Allah complaining again this Takatsu Samia is one word, the people of the wealth of our brothers and sisters they heard about what you said Yeah.
And what we've been doing, yeah, follow miss class. So they started doing the same as what they were doing, following us July. So the messenger of allah sallallahu sallam said, Valley caffeic Bula up him and Yeshua that is the bounty of Allah He gives to whom to whom he wills yeah, there's nothing more you can do. So they've even the even the rich they're giving in so they've started doing the test be definitely lend me that cetera as well. Yeah.
So that that adds something extra, which wasn't in the other Hadith and another version of the Hadith which is also this one's actually
in
this is in Sahih Bukhari but not the same Hadith remember I said that particularly wasn't insoluble partly but a similar something similar to it from Abu Hurayrah.
All Yara saying that
they said
yeah, meaning some of the companions
were poor context tells you that about a loop is truly bedarra Jad one evil morpheme Sam was just the Hadith mentioned that the affluent people have taken all the highest stations yeah meaning before Allah and and
and and permanent places in this life and the life to come. And he asked again, how's that and they say the same thing
and this time the said Lisa, Lana and well we don't have wealth to do what they're doing or giving in charity. So prophesize some saying I've allowed Bureau Combi Ambreen to record a man can Republican with a spoon and
same as he said in the Hadith in Muslim Shall I not inform you of something which you know you can
reach those who were before you and outstripped those will come after you. Okay, and he carries on and he says to somebody who's gonna feed nobody Cooley Salam Asteron what? Tough Medina hashanah Ashlynn what can be wrong assurance. So in this version, saying Allahu Akbar Allah Allah Allahu Akbar, sandal Allah and Subhana Allah even 10 times
After each Salah yeah
gives you that kind of charity and reward of a victory and remembering Allah subhanaw taala
okay
now
when I look at these studies and I've been thinking about and I've thought about it before as well
these companies have come complaining
or kind of complaint they're imploring.
They come out of a kind of envy, haven't they?
And
ever Roger mentioned that it will Roger Bannister. He just said he's the only one who does say and I was thinking to myself because a man normally doesn't say much anyway, you know, because he's very brief. He only makes a few comments in two feet doesn't say anything about that imams are a bozo in the more recent English one doesn't say anything about that even religion does mention that they've come with envious of the people of wealth or material wealth.
And yeah, you do get an element of that, but it's not the kind of envy
which is
which is haram. Yeah. Not that kind of envy.
And of course, in regards to that, there is a Hadith which is mentioned a reported by Abu Dhabi. And if the manager
the famous studies from Abu Huraira saying the prophesy Salam said II come well, hassad Yeah, beware of envy.
For in Hazzard yet will has an ad yet glue has an ad for surely envy devours good deeds cannot cool on natural hub. Like fire devours wood
this hadith is famous but it is actually week has shuffled Bonnie says this week and others have said it before him as well because there's in the chain is an unknown narrator and even in the evening larger version, there is a narrator that has been rejected
to be taken from so this or this is life. However, the meaning of has been haram and this kind of meaning is authenticated anywhere from Quran and Sunnah isn't it? Because for example when we recite in the Quran surah AlFalah Yeah, when pull out a little bit of Bill falafel Yeah, when we say I seek refuge of protection.
Yeah.
From Allah siphon Lord of the of Daybreak. Yeah, part of it is for men sharply has it in either Hassan Yeah, and I seek refuge in a lot basically from the envia when he or she envies for the evil of the NVA means shut me has it and he is a hazard. So sharp is linked with hazard. showing you that sharp and sharp is evil means It's haram. Yeah. What does that hazard mean? In essence, or envy in English
has the meaning.
In this context of
envy with jealousy and hatred,
this kind of envy which is haram is that you see something
of in someone else and you want it to be removed from them. Because you hate it so much when it comes with hatred and hatred that says in the heart you can see why it even the day for these the week leave mentioning about it devouring good deeds because once envy with hatred comes in the heart. What kind of person is that going to produce? Who's full of hatred, jealousy here, and you see how that will affect their deeds. And first and foremost, it affect their heart. That's why we say, seeking refuge Allah from the shadow from the evil of the envia when he or she envies.
So that envy is the one that is
harm of wanting the other person to lose whatever they have and you attain it instead out of that jealousy and hatred.
And
that is also mentioned in her vif which is going to come is the number 3510 More Hadith on and the Hadith from Sahih Muslim when the Prophet saw some says Lata has said when he's talking about the whole war between believers, the has said is from hasta Bahasa do when there's mutual envy going on hatred of each other. So do not envy one another love to have seven, reciprocating that kind of
envy with hatred and jealousy, don't do it to each other. These things destroy a full work because that is staring inside.
So there is showing you again that It's haram to do this hustled and the other authentic hadith in Bukhari Muslim multifocal LA and others, in which the Prophet saw some said, and it's linked with this law has said in law, faith, nothing, faith nothing, there is no hassle accepting two kinds of situations or two kinds of people. Now, this hazard cannot have the meaning of cause envy doesn't necessarily mean doesn't necessarily mean with hatred and you want it removed from the other brought to you. But
a limited envy is also the you are
admiring of what somebody else has and what they're doing and you wish that you could do the same.
Everybody with me? You wish you could be the same as them what they're doing. That's also envy, but it's not with hatred and jealousy. Yeah, it's more with admiration and a desire to do more good. Yeah. So it's It saddens a person not with hatred, but they want to do more, because they want to reach the level of good that the others are doing. So when the prophesy Salam said LA has said he accepting to people even have envy, it doesn't mean say here now you can have hatred here and remove, I want to remove it from those people. No, this is the limited
meaning of envy here, the good kind of envy is only allowed for two kinds of people.
And
as I said, in Bukhari and Muslim this hadith,
excepting to Rajul atta, Hula, hula Quran for Hawaii yet Lou Anna Layli were
a person who Allah gives the Quran to meaning they learn the Quran and they are reciting the Quran.
They recite and he or she recites it during the night and during the day. Yeah, in another version of this hadith, it says,
a person
aka Hula, hula Kitab huddle Kitab or has a Quran that Allah gives him or her the Quran for farmer B he and he stands by with it during the night and during the day that has a wider meaning now, or what it really means because standing by it, comma B means following it day and night. Yeah, or it can even mean reciting it in the night and also applying it during the day but actually covers both day and night meanings all they live by the Quran. Yeah, not just recited so having envy in that kind of person to walk to learn the ayat of the Quran and to understand them and to apply them yeah, that is the kind of envy which has been allowed. The second Orajel as in Buhari Muslim atta who
Allahu
mal
further south dakota he and Leila Anna Anna and a person who Allah has given wells to and he or she spends from that day and by night, yeah, in charity giving, giving giving to others. And that's the kind of envy again which has been allowed because you marvel at done you look at that and you praise it and you wish, yeah, I wish I had that wealth. So I could also give in charity like this person is doing and get holder awards he or she is getting in what are the versions in Bihar.
Muslim it's interesting that instead of mentioning the Quran and the book it says, Rachel atta hula hula hikma.
Yeah, well, you have to be behind what you are limiting
you or limit
a person who Allah gives wisdom to.
And he or she judges and decides and lives by that wisdom
with this hikma here and teaches it to others.
Now, this wisdom can mean the Quran. It can mean Quran and Sunnah as grounded first, as Imam Shafi famously said, when it makes sense hikma
that the prophesy son was given it means his sunnah. Yeah, and but it can also mean wider than that. Yeah.
With wisdom Yeah. Based on grandma's sunnah, buts about wisdom of its understanding and its application in situations in our present life and in so also specific situations and people problems that people bring out that Allah has given them wisdom to be able to decipher and give the right advice and to be able to understand and give them the, the right kind of guidance to all that's included. And this is all from this same Hadith in Bukhari and Muslim.
Interestingly, even though even Roger mentions about the
the fact that they've these companions, who are poor have come with an envy. He doesn't go into the comments, and the evidence is I've given in fact, nobody does.
That eyebrow. And these are the things that came to my mind when I when I saw this picture of the Sahaba coming. That's what I thought of these are these to do with that they are they're like, envies not allowing accepting to and they're looking at here in the wealthy personal spending their night. That's what they're having that kind of envy in them which come from Hadith in Bukhari and Muslim.
And secondly, the context is very important because it really is about
poor companions coming to ask what they can do to increase,
increase in good data and raise their station. Yeah, that's the context. But the prophets are some give something more in it than what they've just asked for, as we'll see.
And the attitude you see on this hadith of the Sahaba, is similar to the attitude as Imam
Ibn Rajab mentioned and Imam Zaragoza mentions referring to the verses in the Quran that when
the the last word taboo came going to Tabuk
some of the companions could not afford a get to ride a camel or didn't have the means to come. Yeah, um, or etc to be able to take part. Yeah.
And their attitude was one of they were really upset. They weren't celebrating and rejoicing that they couldn't come. This is aside from the three companies who stayed behind who we mentioned last time. Yeah.
In regards to the last of these, but they they tend to Allah subhanho wa Taala to no one else that tend to Allah subhanaw taala we mentioned that last time, but this is other companies who are not able to come
and Allah so as I mentioned in surah Tober.
When he mentions the obligation of of the command that was given by the Messenger of Allah so for everybody on the companions to come out except that those he decided to leave behind
for last night, I made sense in verses 91 and 92.
Lisa Allah do
you want
to
say Pune ha Rajan either Nasir who you are US Hooli Merle Mosinee
said surbey walawe who are for all Rafi. There is no blame on the week or on the sick nor on those who have nothing
to spend. Yeah. Lie you do not they have nothing that they can spend.
To enable them to join.
There's there's no blame on them if they stay behind provided that they are
sincere to Allah and his messenger
there is no cause for reproach against those who do good. Meaning these were staying behind because they're sincere they want to come and some of them were crying because they couldn't come.
There is no cause for reproach against those who do good Allah is all forgiving Ever Merciful.
And then Allah says
Allah Allah Allah Dena is
at home Caleta Mila, whom called?
Duma, me Newcom ally, that will love who, you know whom Taffy Domina has an energy do you fear to know on note there is approach reproach or blame can be there
against those who when they came to ask, yeah, ask you a message the Messenger of Allah. Yeah, for
MT to go to the battlefront on here, meaning a horse or a camel. And when you said that you had no mouth for them, they went back with their eyes overflowing with tears, grieving that they had no resources to enable them to take part in the fight to see that attitude is the same attitude what these poor companions are coming with, isn't it from the sisters. And that's why that those verses are relevant to mention here.
As I mentioned,
by even Roger and Imam Zaragoza as well.
So
prophesize Salam
is responding to them.
As they're saying,
in their minds, what they are thinking, of course, is that,
that they can only do charitable deeds with Wells. That's the conclusion. That's why they come.
Yeah, that's why they're saying their prayers. We pray the fastest, we pray fast.
But they're giving in charity. Yet, so don't be fooled Dooley I'm worried him
from the excess of their wealth.
And as in one of the versions, and we can't do that. We don't have any wealth to do that. And this, they're free slaves, and we don't have anything that we can free from the slaves either. Yeah.
So they are thinking,
as Ivan Rogers says, that the poor are thinking that sabotage is only with wealth. And the prophesised opens a different door for them to show them actually, it's not just with wealth, and they can do things, do things.
Which will also count in their favor like charity, like charity.
For me, it was important to understand here and you will see that there were differences of opinion of how people understood this.
Some people made out that the vicar for example of Subhanallah sandal, Allah, Allah, Allah here, is actually better than even the
wealth that is being given a sadaqa.
Some people came to that conclusion. Yeah.
And others said no. And I'm from the latter.
Because the prophesised slim said did say, even in the other Hadith, remember, he said, Shall I teach you something which, by which you will reach those who went before you and outstrip those who come after you? What does he mean? He's not saying for those who are given wealth and they help others with it and give to others. Otherwise, there'd be no need for the other Hadith in Bukhari Muslim we say that envy is allowed or is not allowed accepting to situation and it mentions the person with wealth that you want to be in their position to be able to give to others. Notice
It didn't say the third, a third person in that Quran was another person that was understanding and following and fulfilling and got following his guidance, but it didn't say and we in a third person who's doing lots of zikr did it.
Interesting why. So when the Prophet saw some says, this is still me speaking, that to
reach those be able to reach those of good people who went before you. He means from the poor people like you, and to outstrip those who come after you. It's possible as well to do that, because you're going to do something that they are not necessarily going to do so you can outstrip them and go beyond them. Yeah.
So it is he's not teaching something which by which they are going to outstrip and forgotten go ahead of those who are giving of their wealth to others to help others. No, but he's teaching them something which is salata from them when they have no wealth, they can still do something. That's what he's teaching them. Yeah, the Prophet salallahu Salam, and ne when they say come back in the other Hadith, not in this version of it. In Muslim and in Buhari, they come back and say, those people the affluent have found out about what you've told us about giving integrity with doing Subhanallah Al Hamdulillah. And they're doing the same. What is the prophesy Islam say? Yes, because
now because they have now still going ahead of them, because they're still giving up their wealth as well. And that's why the prophets are Yes. Alika for Gula he up he Manisha, that is the bounty of Allah, we give to whomever he wills meaning of their wealth.
So Allah,
as
potentially, of course, wealth can be a fitness for people as well
as the prophesy some warned about. So it's a big trial to have wealth. It's not as simple as saying, Actually, I'm envious of that person they go into they have lots of wealth. I wish I had it and I would do the same who said you're going to do the same when you get wealth? Everybody with me? It's easy to say yeah. Not necessarily that you're not going to be how many people went astray when they became rich in history and present time and will continue because shutdown deceived them.
Isn't that so brothers and sisters? Yeah. Which reminds me of
the Hadith of the Prophet SAW Selim when he says
he says multaq Russia Aleikum Well, I kidney Azza Aleikum.
Yeah. In Bukhari and Muslim
This is
reported
printed as well
maybe not because it's part of the lease this is when
some companions came with wealth, and after the Salah, and the companions are really happy and prophesy was smiling and telling them to Abba who were Emilio
he said and glad tidings for you and wish and hope for that which is pleasing to you. Then he says,
By Allah Melfa through a chalet calm despite all this wealth, but Allah it is not poverty that I fear for you. Well, our kin ask Sherif Ali Khan and Toby SATA Lake Como dunya, but I fear for you that dunya will open up
for you lay out for you all the wealth in other words, come up we'll set that alarm and can Aqaba Latin as it was laid open for those who came before you that and if I sue her cannot turn if I sue her
and that you start competing with one another for the wealth as they competed before you were totally cool calm can lead to whom Anglica to look at home, and it destroys you like it destroyed those before you
Okay, you see, as the Grant says, well to say do not hire Ted duniya will ask you not to hire or what other part may you prefer the life, meaning all its material of this world, where as the Hereafter is better, best and everlasting. Now. Nevertheless, this is not to say wealth in itself is a negative and a sinful and a bad thing.
Similarly, Imam Azhar Abaza, says as well. And he quotes al hate me also saying, who also did the shadow of the Arbaeen, as you know, that
there's no virtue in Islam on necessarily being poor, and no sin in being wealthy.
Indeed, being wealthy, as I say, may be more virtuous, depending on what you do with the wealth.
As we notice, from this particular Hadith we're looking at, that's why these, the poor companions are called for companions are envious of of that here, because they're seeing that they're getting greater greater rewards. So my point here, again, is that
having the Envy doesn't necessarily mean that we're not going to be tried,
when we went out if we do have wealth,
and we may fail in that, and we may get
destroyed by the wealth, as the Hadith or prophesies are made, so he's not worried about the fact that we're poor.
Now, so
the point I was making is that this is not in the context of this hadith and the guidance must be kept in mind this poor people come. So the Prophet saw some giving something that the poor can do, to give in charity to get greater rewards, which they can't do in a material sense. And the ones who are more welcome until they can do that, as well as this. Yeah. valleca Fabula, UTA Manisha, as he said, that is a bounty if they're still out, stripping and doing outdoing you from them. Because the others, there'll be others who have fallen into the trap of the wells. Yeah. And shaytaan deceived them completely. But there are those who haven't fallen into the trap of wealth, and haven't given
priority to the dystonia in this life, but give their preference and life to come. And they are giving to others. Yeah. So they're, because they're helping others. Yeah, there's a difference. There's a difference between that and those who are doing some of these things, some of these things and we look at that. So
as I said, the Messenger of Allah Salah slim said,
Is there not something that Allah has made for you to give him charity? Surely, in every test Bihar, not Subhan Allah is a charity. And you see, charity here means like the last part of the beef mentioned here.
The they'll be rewarding it for you. That's the idea of sadati Yeah, as your that's the meaning here. That is the this is a charity, meaning that as you're going to reward for it, and every tech be Allahu Akbar, there is a charity. And in every Alhamdulillah tell me that there is a charity and every day Lila, La ilaha illallah, which isn't mentioned in the other two, that is, but it's mentioned in this one saying La la la la la in that your charity. And here the prophesy some adds more,
as compared to the other a hadith that I mentioned at the beginning in Bukhari and Muslim was don't mention this. What Ambreen Bill Maher, Ruth Silva, and standing up for all that which is right and good. Yeah, living by standing up for it. In it is charity and standing against all that which is evil wrong. It is a charity.
So this admirable maruf on the Hill mancha has been left wide open for anybody doing it. So this is, I mean, how we translate this is not just that we're calling others to the truth and to justice and kindness and staying away from evil. But it is really admirable model for nahiN mancha is the essence of the guidance of Islam
is the very essence of the guidance of Islam. Yeah, justice, all that which is good. Kindness.
Built on believing in Allah and having given your partners to him. Yeah, so
I'm Bill Madhu, Wanda he Anil Mancha. You notice here, whereas the curve is me doing it for myself. It is not benefiting anybody else. Although it affects my heart and indirectly could benefit others, whereby close close to Allah subhanaw taala is really, for every test behind Kabira I do it's benefiting me I'm getting Azzam. I'm being charitable to myself really on time. Yeah, when I say some HANDLER handler with meaning, this is very important. There are when prophesized, I'm saying that in every test we had, Lila tell me that and tell me that there is a sub alpha. It doesn't say after that, by the way, as long as you understand the meaning of it, why isn't he going to say that?
I'm asking you
is it not understood Sheikh that everybody would have understood the meaning of what was being said it was the Arabic language Yes, he's speaking in their language. But I need to say it now.
I need to say now not to Arab speaking people. But to all the rest of the Muslim world if they don't understand Arabic when it's saying yeah, because then I'm Why do I need to say because we know there are many people who just go around saying counting as though they were counting 123456 And they've not there must be a failing and understanding when I say Subhan Allah Subhan Allah Subhana Allah some homeless man, what does it mean?
Yeah,
Glory be to Allah. And I said that in similar to phrases we don't understand we miss apply them. We miss apply them. When we say in Allah why Nyla he Raja own know, most people have not developed to understand what the same. They just think that's why they think that you only say when somebody dies, that's all they've learned. Yeah. But it's not true.
So similarly, those phrases when you're saying people are used to doing this 33 counting, but they miss the spirit of that counting of what they're saying. Why did prophesize them just say count anything? If the time the same specifically Say Subhan Allah Glory be to Allah. So because Allah doesn't need your glorification, who's the impacting
ourselves is supposed to impact me in my heart when I say Subhan Allah, when I say Alhamdulillah Praise be to Allah, what am I showing? On the Arabs listening to the prophesy someone that should immediately when they're saying I humbly land saying, Praise be to you and thanks to you? Yeah, Allah.
How many people have non Arab background and understood ever that when they're saying hamdulillah Al Hamdulillah, Al Hamdulillah? What's that making you? It's making you full of humility, and gratitude to Allah. What's that gonna do to your heart? When you keep doing it from your tongue? Moisten your tongue with zikr supposed to affect me?
Yeah.
Subhanallah I say yeah, because I'm not nobody has the position near or a partner before Allah sada he's free from all that. Yeah, Allahu Akbar. Allah is the biggest
Yeah.
Who created and made all the horizon and and the galaxies and whatever else people think that they are that can't even see the can imagine multiverse multiverse?
How big is Allah Who created the multiverse is if there is such a thing?
Allahu Akbar.
What does that do to me makes me realize, yeah, who I am. I am and who I'm going to answer to. Yeah.
Yeah. And La ilaha illAllah. Again, our very foundation, repeating it there is no God, worthy of worship, except Allah.
And that's why profound, profound is the art. They have rewards. I'm giving charity it is benefiting myself. And look, when you go to what I'm doing Bill Monroe, we're not immune and Mancha. Now, it changes from you to benefiting others, isn't it?
Included in that because you're going to stand for which is right and just, you're going to live by that with your tongue and your behavior with others.
advice to others and exemple, to exempt and again
against Moncur, so you're gonna avoid lying, cheating and deceiving, except that's gonna affect others as well. And you're gonna call you're going to stand against those who lie and cheat and deceive as well and say this is wrong. Yeah. So now it has an impact on other people. Yeah, so actually you're benefiting others.
Yeah. benefiting others. So that's for your giving charity to others. That's why in every unbilled model is a charity in every standing against injustice is a charity is a sadhaka is a reward.
So
well, in that regard, even Reggio, for example, he mentions
that to correct the idea that it's charities only through giving wealth from wells. That's what the Prophet says some also trying to do and this is also brought on by other Hadith, even Roger mentioned them wanting Behati Muslim Parkway St. Kulu Mar off in South Africa. All doing good is a charity meaning doing good to others. We're Kulu models in South Africa in one version in Tirmidhi. All doing good is a charity we're in nominal models, and part of doing good is an telecon a haka. Be watching him told him that you meet your brother or sister with a smiling face Subhan Allah that is giving to others 123 Garmin Bell Wi Fi in our feet, and that you empty whatever water is left in
your bucket into the bucket of
your brother or sister meaning you're sharing sharing the water
which can be applied in the widest sense which is a good Hadith.
Even Rajiv also mentioned and it's not a major point but he says Hadith inside Muslim also gives the idea of Allah giving charge being charitable to you, giving benefit to you.
And some of the solace rejected this idea but actually ALLAH
SubhanA where do we begin with a charity from Allah? Allah has given us everything everything that no no, we don't have a right to any of it. So all of our life, our existence and everything is provided us with the environment. Yeah, every moment of it is a blessing and charity from Allah isn't not. Nevertheless, yeah, the prophesy Salam said in regards to the the Salah, which is for the musasa pastor. Yeah, he said
for shortening your prayer when you're a junior officer, I still am said, Sadat don't suck but Allahu Bihar Alikum it is a charity that Allah has bestowed upon you. Fuck Balu Salah pata. So accept his charity. Why in that sense, because Allah made obligatory prayer five times a day. And it is the four cards for God and for for Isha.
Yeah, and for for us. So these are the ones who you're going to, you're going to make him to to, and Allah has allowed you to do that and accepts it as though you've done for. So in that context, the Prophet saw some mentioned it like a charity that Allah has given you. Yeah. So accept and take that charity, meaning do the customer when you're musasa.
So, even Roger says interestingly, that sadaqa
charity, which is non
Well,
yeah, not material in the sense of giving out from your wealth is of two kinds is of two kinds. One in which d s, some of the goodness of it, the model of it passes on to others from creation.
So it's the territory upon now as I've been saying to you earlier, but it's to create some, actually so it could be actually to the environment and could be to the animals and human beings.
And the second kind
which is of a non material kind of charity
is that which is beneficial and it's limited and its benefit is limited to oneself. Okay?
Limited to oneself.
Now
I'm looking at the time and I'm thinking if I start going into that,
then I'll go well over the hour so
and I'm still not going to finish the Hadith. So I may well leave it
to complete next time in the, in the next session in sha Allah. I want to look at the last bit of it in a bit more detail as well. And the prophesies I'm mentioning about the sexual act, having a charity and it as well. So I will actually I'll stop there
according to call it was thoughtful. Lee, welcome in the whole call, Rahim.
And questions on what we've covered so far. You may have questions which are linked with that may well come as we complete the Hadith next time. So I will defer on those
for the moment, any questions brothers and sisters?
So like,
again, wonderful, sorry, I can't you mashallah preempted one of the questions I had beautifully about to be. So does it account for that, that that's now quite clear. Because one of the issues in my mind was that there's many gatherings where people gather for to be of the Asante land, potentially even the Prophet saw the sun. And it was just understanding that especially in the context of the fact that we aren't native Arabic speakers, but people just seem to recite, recite, recite and becomes almost like a fervor
and perhaps guided or miss misguidedly whether or not there was a reward attached to it. So that was the first question but I think for me just like I think you've certainly answered I think, for me certainly it's about the sincerity of when it is done and understanding is important but would welcome obviously your comments on to
and we can go wide and more importantly than that, you know this record that we're mentioning part of Vickery salah, isn't it? A salah is a vicar an absolute, but its benefit was meant to be to affect the heart not only just going up and down like a carcass, but it has something inside it which which makes a heartbeat and fresh and alive or not. And makes the the eyes and the hearts shake when we recite it why not? Because the car is doing it in a melodious manner.
Yes, because of what Allah saying in it. Why think about it, people forget the purpose of the Quran when the Quran is self is telling you to reflect on the Quran. And to contemplate on it. How can you contemplate and if you don't understand a word that's being said, you won't even understand that fact that he's telling you to contemplate. And it's telling you it's a guidance and emergency and is she fair? And a healing? For what? Well? How can it be? It's not Hocus Pocus, kind of Allah wouldn't send a book that he called guidance. Think about it the Creator of the heavens have yet to people
who don't understand it? Yes, absolutely. What What sense would that make? Because you can just go up and say yeah, a lot. Well, you sent me a message. And so the word of Absolutely.
Yeah, I mean, to also just to allay any doubts, when I have certainly challenged this with brothers and sisters desikachar Thanks to your knowledge, actually.
I be met with a response that this is tradition. And as we know that there's traditions of all sorts, which are misguided, but this was never these zikr gatherings were never ever done by obviously never done that upon silence. I'm never done by any of the Sahaba at all.
I don't by the way, if you ask me. I haven't got a problem with liquid gatherings. Okay, it depends don't take it somewhere else. And understand what I said. I haven't said against and I'm fact in down the middle for this. I think Victor gatherings are absolutely fine. And it's, it's
it's those who call it beta. Gone to an extreme in it because the prophets I still remember Allah. I mean, I said that on the line and I said
could lead me all the time, any situations and that I had this about missing those who get together to remember Allah to study the Quran how the angels gather around them, they didn't get together. And if I mentioned if we mentioned the Quran what if I sit there reading the hours together from the Quran, etc. All of that can be vicar. Suhana live from the Quran. Alhamdulillah is from the Quran. Allahu Akbar is from the Quran. Yeah. So my point here is understanding what you're saying.
Yeah, understanding what you're saying, in the idea, if you want to talk about liquor gambling, when they have hardware and people jumping up and down and dancing, and then now that takes it to a different, that's not my point. I won't even I won't get drawn into that. Okay, because there are the cricket things that can go beyond the limits and who dude, but that's not all they could gathering for us some very, the idea of doing the record together,
whether reciting together mentioning whether the SP and Daphne together is absolutely fine. But my point that's being made about the Quran and the words of the Quran is understand them. That's, that was the purpose. So I feel like we're right and understanding that, obviously, where people are doing Hutmacher on for instance, that is just just reciting the Arabic in the hope of obviously, reward for us on top, I understand that there is a larger recitation of the Quran even without meaning.
Is there a benefit in that?
Well, it is question is this questionable? You don't say they're doing wrong? It is questionable. If nobody's understanding what they're assigning and this idea of right, somebody's died, we're going to complete the Quran, you take the Jews, you take the Jews, you take Aspera, you read it, eight ones reading it, and they are understood a word was being said, but nobody reads every translation if you want to adjust it, if you want to do that, then tell them to read it with meaning. Read it with meaning. That was the purpose. The purpose of the Quran is not just counting, for the sake of counting its purpose. If you miss the purpose, you miss the essence. Yeah. And how many other people
who recite the Quran because they didn't understand the message they'll do opposite to what the Quran is saying while reciting it. They will carry the sin of the Quran the Quran will become a burden on them. People don't realize it. No.
Thank you. I have another question. I'm reading it for Baraka reading Bharata. Yes. And I said it many times in the background wasn't sent for you just to read it in a foreign language. It's going to do some magical potion spell on you. You need to understand this and primarily for your guidance. So ask What is this saying if you don't understand read the translation if you don't understand.
I have another question. But I want other brothers and sisters to ask before you does that.
Anybody else, sisters.
So my two gone already because we've gone on maybe
no one else.
Salam aleikum. Che just was
about this finishing one after the 5000 beats counting as a zikr. And
please advise,
the counting isn't a problem. Some people had a problem or present day
saying, Oh, this counting on beads and that is better.
That I don't accept that view again, because counting is just a Waseda Asha kadai Rahim Allah said,
and others and my shift as well. And many chefs have said that it's just a sila way of kind of instead of counting on the fingers, you using something to count the counting isn't the problem that people made it into. Yeah, my point here is that counting
the Subhan Allah and Allah Allah, Allah, I understand what you're saying I
understand what you're saying.
And the idea of this hadith is telling you in every test we have is a southpaw. Yes. So so the method of counting, perhaps I sit down with a stopwatch and say so one last one last one last one last one last one last one. Is that better now?
No nonsense.
I haven't added anything to the Avada
it's a method of counting and then perhaps will be more accurate
yeah
I'm sorry what you will ask
anybody else
before we finish
May I ask the last question that yes, go ahead. There's just one thing that that occurred to me and my little mind was that Alhumdulillah with this hadith I feel that the province Hassan was addressing something far deeper in the way of
and please correct me if I'm wrong here and my limited understanding about active and and the active the active nature of certain things but but also if we could read it in context of the beautiful Hadith about how wonderful is a case of a believer where we're blessed for even enduring hardships almost like passively other santalo rewards us both passively and actively for money for me that is so how are quite an amazing concept I just would love your input on that please
yeah, I mean
everything for a believer is a source of reward isn't it brothers and sisters all of our life and that was that's why
it's always good
all the affairs all the time is good for a believer isn't it that famous at least office Aslam whether they're in difficulty or whether they're in prosperity
Sobor Ashoka. This is what they're going through. So
enduring some difficulty.
Even then, really, it's it's not passive on them. Because when you're enduring, imploring Allah subhanaw taala. So your lips and your tongue is moist with his remembrance again, isn't it? So brazen, you just fold your arms up and sit in a corner. Is it? Is it? Yes. So is it really passive? It's not absolutely right. So we don't just wait, think about it.
We're never passive.
And then he brings out the idea of taking opportunity, where every moment in life is a bounty of blessing from Allah.
So I know what you're saying, but it's not really passive either.
I understand I can thank you for the correction.
Thank you, Monica. Lo Fi COMM And I
will be off next week's show. I don't think we're on next week because yeah, yeah. I think I've done five weeks on the trip this time. I'm like, Yes. I remember. Maybe four or five anyway. Yeah. I think I've done five. So
