So tonight inshaAllah the last episode of Al

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

Aleem, the all knowing. So in the last

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

couple of episodes, we're talking about the knowledge

00:00:10 --> 00:00:12

of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

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

And, last night we're talking about our knowledge,

00:00:15 --> 00:00:19

and tonight we'll complete that session inshaAllah about

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

our knowledge.

00:00:21 --> 00:00:23

If you look at Sura Ka, which is

00:00:23 --> 00:00:25

the center of Sura in the Quran,

00:00:25 --> 00:00:27

if you count the pages before and after,

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

then Surah Kaf is right

00:00:32 --> 00:00:34

Surah Kaf is right in the middle of

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

the Quran.

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

Surah Kaf is right in the middle of

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

the Quran.

00:00:38 --> 00:00:39

And

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

in the middle of that surah there is

00:00:42 --> 00:00:44

the Ayah right in the middle of that

00:00:44 --> 00:00:47

Surah that talks about Tiyamu Qiyamah, everyone is

00:00:47 --> 00:00:50

getting their book and being questioned about different

00:00:50 --> 00:00:50

things.

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

There are 2 stories before

00:00:54 --> 00:00:55

and 2 stories after.

00:00:56 --> 00:00:58

Right? So pay close attention to this.

00:00:58 --> 00:01:00

So Surah Kaf is right in the middle

00:01:00 --> 00:01:01

of the Quran,

00:01:02 --> 00:01:04

and in that middle Surah,

00:01:04 --> 00:01:06

there is this middle Ayah right in the

00:01:06 --> 00:01:08

middle of the Surah, Wa'uda Al Kitabu Fatharal

00:01:08 --> 00:01:11

Mujalimina Mushmipeena mimafi. It talks about

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

the judgment on Yawmul Qiyamah,

00:01:14 --> 00:01:16

and there are 2 stories before and 2

00:01:16 --> 00:01:19

stories after, and I'm gonna explain this in

00:01:19 --> 00:01:19

a minute.

00:01:21 --> 00:01:21

So,

00:01:23 --> 00:01:24

I know some people who have written some

00:01:24 --> 00:01:25

books,

00:01:26 --> 00:01:27

and

00:01:27 --> 00:01:29

if I leave a legacy behind,

00:01:30 --> 00:01:31

I think this book would be my legacy,

00:01:31 --> 00:01:34

the Clear Quran which is I think Walla'alam

00:01:34 --> 00:01:37

is the finest translation of the Quran to

00:01:37 --> 00:01:37

date.

00:01:37 --> 00:01:40

It's easy, clear, smooth, the flow is good

00:01:40 --> 00:01:41

Alhamdulillah.

00:01:42 --> 00:01:45

Most of us here, and actually most of

00:01:45 --> 00:01:48

humanity don't know that every and each one

00:01:48 --> 00:01:50

of us is actually an author of a

00:01:50 --> 00:01:51

book.

00:01:52 --> 00:01:53

I didn't know man.

00:01:53 --> 00:01:55

You actually author the book?

00:01:56 --> 00:01:59

I'm proud of my book, and people ask

00:01:59 --> 00:02:01

me my signature, I'm proud of it, I

00:02:01 --> 00:02:03

say Masha'Allah, I've contributed this to the Deen.

00:02:04 --> 00:02:06

But many people in Yomul Qiyamah, they would

00:02:06 --> 00:02:07

be running away from their book,

00:02:07 --> 00:02:10

they would distance themselves from that book, and

00:02:10 --> 00:02:11

they say I have nothing to do with

00:02:11 --> 00:02:13

it. I didn't author it, it is not

00:02:13 --> 00:02:15

mine, and this is the book of deeds.

00:02:16 --> 00:02:18

Everything that we do is recorded. Now it

00:02:18 --> 00:02:19

makes sense.

00:02:20 --> 00:02:20

So

00:02:22 --> 00:02:24

now, this area in Zuraqaf in the middle

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26

of the Quran talks about the book of

00:02:26 --> 00:02:28

deeds, and there are some certain questions we'll

00:02:28 --> 00:02:30

be getting on that day.

00:02:30 --> 00:02:31

Two questions before

00:02:32 --> 00:02:34

and two questions after based on the two

00:02:34 --> 00:02:36

stories before and after.

00:02:36 --> 00:02:38

So what does Surakaf have to do with

00:02:38 --> 00:02:40

all of this? The questions on Yamat Qiyamah

00:02:41 --> 00:02:42

and knowledge, what are you talking about? You're

00:02:42 --> 00:02:45

not making any sense tonight, Sheikh. Have you

00:02:45 --> 00:02:45

eaten,

00:02:46 --> 00:02:48

I call it, I'm under the,

00:02:48 --> 00:02:49

you

00:02:50 --> 00:02:52

what do you call it? Driving under influence?

00:02:52 --> 00:02:56

Right? Driving under influence. Yes. I'm talking under

00:02:56 --> 00:02:57

the influence of Biryani.

00:02:59 --> 00:03:00

D U I B.

00:03:01 --> 00:03:01

Okay.

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

The Prophet

00:03:03 --> 00:03:05

says in an authentic hadith in a term

00:03:05 --> 00:03:05

madein.

00:03:06 --> 00:03:07

Your

00:03:12 --> 00:03:14

feet will not be moved on Yawmul Qiyamah

00:03:14 --> 00:03:17

until you are questioned about four things. You

00:03:17 --> 00:03:19

will receive 4 questions on Youmulkiyama.

00:03:20 --> 00:03:22

One of them about your youth years, when

00:03:22 --> 00:03:23

you were 16,

00:03:24 --> 00:03:26

18, 20 years old. What did you do?

00:03:26 --> 00:03:27

When you were healthy,

00:03:28 --> 00:03:30

when you were your mental capacity, what was

00:03:30 --> 00:03:32

at the top? That was the prime of

00:03:32 --> 00:03:35

your life, what did you do? And Allah

00:03:35 --> 00:03:37

will ask you about your wealth. How did

00:03:37 --> 00:03:38

you gain your money, and how did you

00:03:38 --> 00:03:41

spend it? And He will ask you about

00:03:41 --> 00:03:41

your knowledge.

00:03:42 --> 00:03:43

Ah, knowledge.

00:03:46 --> 00:03:48

Your knowledge. What did you do with your

00:03:48 --> 00:03:50

knowledge? You knew this is haram,

00:03:50 --> 00:03:51

but you didn't.

00:03:51 --> 00:03:53

You knew this is farit, you have to

00:03:53 --> 00:03:55

do it, but you didn't do it. This

00:03:55 --> 00:03:57

is the knowledge, and number 4, your life.

00:03:57 --> 00:04:00

You lived in this world 60 years, 70

00:04:00 --> 00:04:01

years, what did you do with your life?

00:04:02 --> 00:04:04

So these are the 4 questions that will

00:04:04 --> 00:04:06

get on You Mutiamah according to this authentic

00:04:06 --> 00:04:09

Hadith of the Prophet SAW. And guess what?

00:04:09 --> 00:04:11

The 4 stories in Sura Kaff, in the

00:04:11 --> 00:04:12

middle of the Quran,

00:04:13 --> 00:04:14

talk about these four things.

00:04:15 --> 00:04:17

The first story, the youth in the cave,

00:04:17 --> 00:04:17

the youth.

00:04:18 --> 00:04:20

2nd story, the man of the 2 gardens,

00:04:20 --> 00:04:23

the wealthy man with his money, and the

00:04:23 --> 00:04:25

3rd story Musa Al Khidr, the man of

00:04:25 --> 00:04:26

knowledge.

00:04:26 --> 00:04:29

Knowledge is number 3, and number 4 how

00:04:29 --> 00:04:31

you spent your life, Dhul Qarmaine, and how

00:04:31 --> 00:04:33

you spent his life in the service of

00:04:33 --> 00:04:35

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. So the Hadith that

00:04:35 --> 00:04:37

talks about Yama'l Qiyama, the questions you will

00:04:37 --> 00:04:38

get, the book,

00:04:38 --> 00:04:41

and these 4 questions correspond to each one

00:04:41 --> 00:04:43

of them corresponds to one of the stories

00:04:43 --> 00:04:44

in Surakah,

00:04:44 --> 00:04:46

and this is why it is recommended to

00:04:46 --> 00:04:48

read it every Jummah to remind you of

00:04:48 --> 00:04:51

the 4 questions that we'll get. So now

00:04:51 --> 00:04:53

Insha'Allah, in the second half of my talk,

00:04:53 --> 00:04:55

I'll focus on knowledge

00:04:55 --> 00:04:58

because there's so much knowledge in the world.

00:04:58 --> 00:05:00

There is far knowledge, haram knowledge, permissible knowledge,

00:05:00 --> 00:05:03

and the Aleman say permissible knowledge if you

00:05:03 --> 00:05:05

become a doctor you study engineering or something.

00:05:05 --> 00:05:06

This is

00:05:07 --> 00:05:09

permissible. Farid knowledge is the knowledge of Islam,

00:05:09 --> 00:05:11

halal and haram, the sunnah of Muhammad

00:05:11 --> 00:05:14

how to worship Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, and

00:05:14 --> 00:05:16

the haram knowledge is like black magic.

00:05:17 --> 00:05:18

If you study for example,

00:05:19 --> 00:05:21

how to make money out of Riba, if

00:05:21 --> 00:05:24

you study how to do like winery to

00:05:24 --> 00:05:26

to make wine, khamr, all this is haram

00:05:26 --> 00:05:27

haram knowledge.

00:05:28 --> 00:05:30

Some people, Allah gave them knowledge, but they

00:05:30 --> 00:05:32

didn't use it in the right way. They

00:05:32 --> 00:05:34

created the nuclear wand, the atomic bomb, they

00:05:34 --> 00:05:36

killed so many people that he gave them

00:05:36 --> 00:05:38

knowledge, but they use it to destroy humanity.

00:05:39 --> 00:05:41

Some people Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala gave them

00:05:41 --> 00:05:44

knowledge. There are thousands of people, thousands of

00:05:44 --> 00:05:44

people.

00:05:45 --> 00:05:47

They have PhDs from Yale and Harvard,

00:05:48 --> 00:05:51

PhDs from Yale and Harvard, the highest

00:05:51 --> 00:05:53

level of education in the world, and they

00:05:53 --> 00:05:56

say Allah doesn't exist. There's no proof.

00:05:56 --> 00:05:59

Whereas someone who lives in the desert, or

00:05:59 --> 00:06:01

someone who's a farmer in my village, they

00:06:01 --> 00:06:02

can't read and write,

00:06:03 --> 00:06:05

they can't read, and they say no Allah

00:06:05 --> 00:06:06

exists.

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

You see, when you walk in the street,

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

and and you see for example the hoofs,

00:06:10 --> 00:06:11

the footprints of

00:06:12 --> 00:06:14

a cat or a goat or a donkey,

00:06:15 --> 00:06:17

this is a proof that these animals exist.

00:06:18 --> 00:06:20

They say, if you see the stars and

00:06:20 --> 00:06:23

the moon and the trees and the galaxies,

00:06:23 --> 00:06:25

this is a proof that someone exists who

00:06:25 --> 00:06:26

is running the show.

00:06:27 --> 00:06:28

These are people who come from the village,

00:06:28 --> 00:06:30

they couldn't read or write and they didn't

00:06:30 --> 00:06:32

go to school, and you see people from

00:06:32 --> 00:06:34

Yale and Harvard and they say, you know,

00:06:34 --> 00:06:36

we are descendants of monkeys.

00:06:37 --> 00:06:39

There's no creator, and this is what they

00:06:39 --> 00:06:40

say.

00:06:40 --> 00:06:42

This remind me of the story,

00:06:43 --> 00:06:44

a guy came from school one day, 7

00:06:44 --> 00:06:46

years old, and he went to his mom

00:06:46 --> 00:06:48

in the kitchen and he said mom where

00:06:48 --> 00:06:50

did we come from? She said honey we

00:06:50 --> 00:06:52

came from Adam and Eve, we're human.

00:06:53 --> 00:06:54

And he went to his dad in the

00:06:54 --> 00:06:56

living room and he said, dad, mom said

00:06:56 --> 00:06:58

we came from Adam and Eve who are

00:06:58 --> 00:07:00

human, what do you say? His dad said,

00:07:00 --> 00:07:02

no no no, dad listen to your mom,

00:07:02 --> 00:07:04

we are monkeys, we came from monkeys. He

00:07:04 --> 00:07:06

is a believer in Darwinism,

00:07:06 --> 00:07:08

right? So we evolved from monkeys.

00:07:08 --> 00:07:10

So the kid ran back to his mom

00:07:10 --> 00:07:12

and he was so confused, steam was coming

00:07:12 --> 00:07:13

out of his head, his head was about

00:07:13 --> 00:07:16

to explode, and said mom, I asked you

00:07:16 --> 00:07:17

where we came from. He said we came

00:07:17 --> 00:07:19

from Adam and Eve, we're human. My dad

00:07:19 --> 00:07:21

said we came from monkeys.

00:07:21 --> 00:07:23

I'm so confused. So his mom said no

00:07:23 --> 00:07:25

no no there's no confusion here,

00:07:25 --> 00:07:27

I was talking about my family, your dad

00:07:27 --> 00:07:28

was talking about his family.

00:07:29 --> 00:07:31

Just a bunch of monkeys.

00:07:32 --> 00:07:34

Now the people who would be in a

00:07:34 --> 00:07:36

difficult situation on Yawmul Qiyamah with regards to

00:07:36 --> 00:07:37

their knowledge,

00:07:37 --> 00:07:39

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala gave them the right

00:07:39 --> 00:07:41

of the knowledge of right and wrong,

00:07:42 --> 00:07:44

they knew this is haram, but still they

00:07:44 --> 00:07:46

did it. They know this is far, you

00:07:46 --> 00:07:47

have to do it, and they didn't do

00:07:47 --> 00:07:48

it.

00:07:48 --> 00:07:50

And the people who use their knowledge,

00:07:51 --> 00:07:52

there are some people who use their knowledge

00:07:52 --> 00:07:54

to enlighten people, make dawah,

00:07:55 --> 00:07:57

to make sure people are on the Suratul

00:07:57 --> 00:07:58

Mustaqim,

00:07:58 --> 00:08:00

and there are some people who use their

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

knowledge to argue and debate and to make

00:08:02 --> 00:08:05

sure you are deviant, Minat Daulin.

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

These are the people, the first group who

00:08:08 --> 00:08:09

make sure

00:08:09 --> 00:08:11

they make Dua so everyone InshaAllah will go

00:08:11 --> 00:08:14

to Jannah, and the second group they use

00:08:14 --> 00:08:16

their knowledge to prove that everyone except for

00:08:16 --> 00:08:18

themselves is going to Jahanam.

00:08:19 --> 00:08:21

This is the type of people who have

00:08:21 --> 00:08:22

fake knowledge.

00:08:22 --> 00:08:24

If you have the right knowledge,

00:08:24 --> 00:08:27

then we should make Dawah, enlighten people and

00:08:27 --> 00:08:29

make sure InshaAllah, when we leave this world

00:08:29 --> 00:08:31

we're taking as many people as we can,

00:08:31 --> 00:08:33

Muslims and non Muslims to Jannah with us

00:08:33 --> 00:08:36

because we use our knowledge for the benefit

00:08:36 --> 00:08:38

of humanity, and this is something Muhammad

00:08:39 --> 00:08:41

could have done. He was keen Hari sun

00:08:41 --> 00:08:43

alaikum. He was keen on you, he was

00:08:43 --> 00:08:45

keen to take everyone with him to Jannah.

00:08:45 --> 00:08:47

And there are so many hadith that explain

00:08:47 --> 00:08:49

this, the hadith of the fire, and people

00:08:49 --> 00:08:50

keep jumping

00:08:50 --> 00:08:53

inside the fire like flies, and I'm trying

00:08:53 --> 00:08:55

to protect you. So the Prophet SAW Alaihi

00:08:55 --> 00:08:57

Wasallam was using his knowledge to take everyone

00:08:57 --> 00:08:59

to Jannah, but some people in our world

00:08:59 --> 00:08:59

today,

00:09:00 --> 00:09:02

whatever ideology they follow,

00:09:02 --> 00:09:04

radicalize whatever Wallahu Alem,

00:09:05 --> 00:09:07

they say, if you don't follow my way

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

then everyone is going to Jahannam. So basically

00:09:10 --> 00:09:12

they are sending 1% or less than per

00:09:12 --> 00:09:14

1 percent to Jannah, everyone is going to

00:09:14 --> 00:09:15

Jahannam.

00:09:15 --> 00:09:17

Now you should use their knowledge to serve

00:09:17 --> 00:09:19

humanity, make sure inshaAllah everyone is going to

00:09:19 --> 00:09:21

Jannah. We ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to

00:09:21 --> 00:09:23

give us beneficial knowledge and to give us

00:09:23 --> 00:09:26

our books in our right hands, Ameen Ameer,

00:09:26 --> 00:09:27

and to give us Jannahatul for those with

00:09:27 --> 00:09:29

Muhammad Muhammad and the Sahabaqiram.

00:09:30 --> 00:09:31

The question for last night,

00:09:33 --> 00:09:33

Bani

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

Israel

00:09:37 --> 00:09:38

Fadatukum 'alalalamin

00:09:39 --> 00:09:42

wa Ummad Muhammad sasalamin Surah Al Imran Kuntum

00:09:42 --> 00:09:45

Khayr Ummatin Ukhajat lin Nas. To make this

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

easy Insha'Allah,

00:09:47 --> 00:09:48

back in 1998,

00:09:49 --> 00:09:52

if someone said that Windows 98 is the

00:09:52 --> 00:09:53

finest

00:09:53 --> 00:09:56

Windows that has ever been produced. Is this

00:09:56 --> 00:09:58

correct or no? Correct. Correct.

00:09:59 --> 00:10:00

1998,

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

back in 1998,

00:10:02 --> 00:10:03

but not today.

00:10:04 --> 00:10:05

So this is true in the case of

00:10:05 --> 00:10:08

Banu Israel. At that time, they were the

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

finest in their time,

00:10:10 --> 00:10:12

but when Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says to

00:10:13 --> 00:10:14

the Muslim Ummah,

00:10:14 --> 00:10:17

this is just like Mac or Windows 10.

00:10:17 --> 00:10:18

This is the finest.

00:10:19 --> 00:10:20

A list assume there is no other Windows

00:10:20 --> 00:10:22

coming in the future, and this is the

00:10:22 --> 00:10:24

last, and this is the finest of all

00:10:24 --> 00:10:25

time.

00:10:25 --> 00:10:26

1998,

00:10:27 --> 00:10:28

2,007, 2017,

00:10:28 --> 00:10:29

2050

00:10:29 --> 00:10:31

it will always be the finest, and this

00:10:31 --> 00:10:33

is the easiest way to look at it

00:10:33 --> 00:10:33

InshaAllah.

00:10:34 --> 00:10:36

The winner is brother Mahmoud Rashid.

00:10:37 --> 00:10:38

Mashallah Takbir.

00:10:40 --> 00:10:41

Good job man.

00:10:44 --> 00:10:45

The question tonight,

00:10:46 --> 00:10:48

who is the first believer? Is it Muhammad

00:10:48 --> 00:10:50

SAW Alaihi Wasallam or Musa Alaihi Wasallam? Because

00:10:50 --> 00:10:52

when you read the Qur'anic post, post, 1

00:10:52 --> 00:10:55

hour mumineen, 1 hour Muslimeel Musa said, I'm

00:10:55 --> 00:10:56

the first believer,

00:10:57 --> 00:11:00

and Muhammad said, I'm the first believer.

00:11:00 --> 00:11:02

Which one of them is the first believer?

00:11:02 --> 00:11:04

If you know the answer, email me at,

00:11:04 --> 00:11:05

imamustafaa atanatoliacenter.

00:11:06 --> 00:11:08

Ca before tomorrow. AssameshAllah. AssameshAllah. AssameshAllah.
