00:00:00 --> 00:00:01
			So if if you are Dalim,
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:04
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is Ghahir.
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:06
			If you are Ghaulum,
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:08
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is Ghafoor.
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:11
			If you are Ghal Lam, Allah Subhanahu Wa
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:12
			Ta'ala is Ghafar.
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:14
			But But if you reach this level of
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:15
			Musrif,
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:18
			which is you did everything in the book,
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			everything is haram you did, if you are
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			Musrif, Asrafu Alaam Fussihim,
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:24
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala wasir almafir.
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:28
			He's infinite in mercy. So these are the
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			4 different levels of Mercy in the Quran.
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:33
			We need to keep 2 things in mind.
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:35
			The first one, Yes, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:36
			is infinite in Mercy,
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:40
			in the Rebekah, Ghafur Rahim. But in the
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:42
			meantime, it's shadeedul Rekha.
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44
			Because people they do bad things they said
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			Oh Allah will forgive me. Yes Allah talks
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:48
			about His mercy in the Quran, but He
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50
			also talks about His punishment.
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			So we need to keep the balance and
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			keep this in mind. The other thing is
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:58
			when we talk about the mercy of Allah
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:00
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, we when we do mistakes,
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02
			there are 2 types of Muslims who do
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			mistakes
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:04
			and sins.
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:06
			Those who do something bad,
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			and they justify.
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			It's okay, it is not Haram, and so
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:11
			on and so forth.
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:14
			And those who do mistakes, and they admit
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			it: Yes, I'm Yeah, I'm a Muslim, but
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:18
			I'm a weak human being, I made a
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:18
			mistake.
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:21
			So they humble themselves. In this case Allah
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, there is hope in His
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24
			Mercy.
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25
			I'll give you an example.
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:29
			In Surah Baqarah and other Surahs of the
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:29
			Quran,
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			it's mentioned in Surah Araf, Surah Taha, Surah
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			Asad, in different Surahs of the Quran along
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:36
			with Surah Baqarah
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:37
			Adam
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:40
			made a mistake Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala told
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			him don't eat from this tree, he disobeyed,
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:44
			he ate from the tree. He made a
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:44
			mistake
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:46
			Shaitan made a mistake
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:49
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala told him to make
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:51
			Sajjad to Adam, he didn't listen.
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:55
			Why was Adam Alaihi Wasallam forgiven, but shaitan
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:55
			was not forgiven?
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:59
			Because Adam Alaihi Wasallam humbled himself. He said,
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:00
			I made a mistake.
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:01
			I
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			forgot, I made a mistake. So forgive me,
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			Allah forgave him.
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:06
			But shaitan,
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:09
			he said, Why should I make Saljat to
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:12
			him? I'm better than him. You created me
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:14
			from fire, You created him from Why should
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			I make Saljat? He argued. He didn't humble
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:18
			himself before Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, and this
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:21
			is why Adam was forgiven. Shaitan was not
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:23
			forgiven. So if you make a mistake,
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:26
			if you commit a sin, humble yourself before
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:28
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. Admit it.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:29
			It's Haram,
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31
			and I'm a weak human being, and I
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:33
			will try inshaAllah to quit. But if you
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:34
			say,
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:36
			It is not a big deal,
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:38
			everyone is doing
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:40
			it, everyone is delaying their salah, everyone is
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:44
			doing riva, everyone is selling alcohol, everyone is
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:44
			dating, everyone
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:48
			You don't expect tawba for someone who has
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:50
			some, this kind of mentality. If you humble
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			yourself, you admit you are weak, then there's
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:54
			hope for you that Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:56
			will forgive you, doesn't matter how big your
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:57
			sin is.
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:00
			There's something interesting about the forgiveness of Allah
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:02
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala in the Quran. If you
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:04
			read in Surah Maidah, surah number 5,
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:07
			the 2 worst sins in the Quran are
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:10
			given in this surah. Al kaba'il kafirah. Tabam,
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:12
			there are several types of kaba'il in Islam,
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:15
			but the 2 worst sins in the Quran,
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18
			or at least in Surah Ma'idah, number 1,
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:21
			shirk. Committing shirk, worshiping someone else.
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:23
			In Allahhaaafirah
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:27
			alushraqabi wa'afirahalushraqabi wa'afirahalu shraqabi wa'afiruhmaalu ma'alaalikaariminasha
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:30
			Allah does not forgive committing shirk,
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			but He is willing to forgive anything else
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:33
			of whoever He wants.
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:37
			So in Surah Al Ma'ida Allah Subhanahu Wa
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:40
			Ta'ala criticizes the Nasara who worship Isa Alaihi
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:41
			Wasallam, they say that he is 3 and
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:43
			so on and so forth, and they worship
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:45
			Isa Alaihi Wasallam. This is the worst type
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:46
			of sins.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:49
			In nasirk al adhun mun arim, as Allah
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:51
			subhanahu wa ta'ala says in Surah Al Uqman.
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:53
			Indeed, shirk is the worst of all wrongs.
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:57
			The second type of or the second worst
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:00
			sin in Surah Maryrah and in the Quran
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:01
			in general is killing prophets.
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:04
			Now there is someone who came, he's not
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:07
			asking money from you, he's giving you hidayah
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:09
			for free, and and he cares about you.
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			He loves you more than you love yourself
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:12
			because yourself
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:15
			will take you to desires to jahannam, but
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:18
			the prophet wants to save you from Jahannam
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:19
			and take you to Jannah. So he loves
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:22
			you more than you Hari'asul Alaikum. He is
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:24
			keen about your safety and guidance,
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:26
			and you kill him.
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:28
			And this is what the Ehud did. They
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:31
			killed Zakariyah, they killed Yahya, they tried to
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:33
			kill Isa alaihis salam. So these are the
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:36
			2 worst types of sins in Surah Ma'irah.
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:38
			1 is done by the Christians,
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:40
			the Nasalah, and 1 by the Hud.
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			And still SubhanAllah, at the end of this
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:44
			page which criticizes
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:45
			shirk,
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:47
			and criticizes killing the Prophets,
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:50
			at the bottom of the page it says,
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:53
			Afaraya Tuubuona yilla Allahu wa Astafirunahu
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:56
			wa Allahu Ghafoorur Rahim. After killing the Prophets
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			and committing shirk, if they come back to
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:01
			me and ask for my forgiveness, I will
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:05
			forgive them. After killing Prophets and committing shirk.
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:07
			So why is your sin com compared to
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:08
			their sins? It it's nothing.
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:11
			So the point is, no matter how big
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:13
			your sin is, it is never bigger than
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:15
			the mercy of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. Also,
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:17
			if you want Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala to
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:19
			forgive you, and to show you with His
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:22
			forgiveness, you have to be forgiving towards people.
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:26
			In Sura Nur Wa liyahu Wa liasfa'hu alatuhibbu'a
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:27
			anyalfiAllahuilakum
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29
			If you want Allah to forgive you, you
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			have to forgive people, and you have to
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:31
			be forgiving.
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:34
			In the story of Abu Bakr radiAllahu, and
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:36
			that's a long story. If you look at
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:38
			the example of Muhammad SAW, he's a human
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:41
			being, and I, Wallahi, I know. Sometimes people
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:42
			hurt you,
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:44
			they stab you in the back, they do
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:46
			your wrong, you have been doing good to
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:48
			them all your life, and and and they
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			stab you, they betray you. And it is
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:53
			hard to forgive them. But Muhammad SAW was
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:54
			able to forgive.
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:57
			And I think one of the greatest examples
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:59
			of his forgiveness in the books of Sira,
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:01
			there's one story in Bukhari. The stories are
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:02
			so many.
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:04
			Al habaar ibn Aswad,
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:07
			a notorious man, an evil man from Mecca
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:10
			He fought against the Prophet SAW and when
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:12
			Zainab, the daughter of the Prophet SAW was
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:15
			leaving Makkah to Madinah to follow her father,
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:18
			by herself, she was on her camel. So
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:20
			this evil man Al Habarid al Aswah came,
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:22
			and he started to poke the camel,
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:24
			and the camel started to jump Zaynab
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:26
			the daughter of Muhammad
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:28
			SAW filled down, she was pregnant.
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:31
			She fell down, she landed on a rock,
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:32
			her baby was killed,
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:34
			and because of the consequences
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:35
			of the miscarriage,
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:39
			she died, radiAllahu an.
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:41
			The daughter of the he was the reason
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:44
			why Zaynab, the daughter of the Prophet SAW
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:46
			lost her baby and eventually she died because
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:47
			of the pain.
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:51
			And he fought against the Prophet SAW So
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:53
			he was like a big enemy of Muhammad
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:53
			SAW
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:56
			So after Fathim Makkah, he came to the
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:57
			Prophet SAW And
		
00:06:58 --> 00:07:00
			and he humbled himself, he sat in front
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:02
			of the Prophet SAW with tears in his
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:03
			eyes, and he said,
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:06
			You Rasool Allah, I made a mistake, I
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:08
			fought against You, and You have the truth
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:10
			on Your side, so please forgive me. And
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:12
			the Prophet SAW said, Okay, I will forgive
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:13
			you. And and he forgave him and he
		
00:07:13 --> 00:07:14
			gave him shahal
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:17
			Same thing in the story of Washi, he
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:20
			killed the best two people after Muhammad SAW,
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:22
			he killed Hamza Radilal, the uncle of the
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:23
			Prophet SAW,
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:25
			and
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:26
			eventually,
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:28
			Washi came to the Prophet SAW and said
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:31
			You Rasool Allah, is there any Tawbah for
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:32
			me? Like, I did a terrible thing. I
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:35
			killed, you know, Hamza, you loved him, I
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:37
			did a terrible thing, I fought against you.
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:39
			Is there any Tawbah for me if I
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:39
			take shahal?
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:43
			And this ayah was revealed, kulya aibadiya labeena
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:43
			as salafu alaakusimlaatapnatumr
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:45
			rahmatillahimatiallahu
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:49
			ala'jabiya. So this ayah and Surah Zumr was
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:52
			revealed, oh my servants who have exceeded all
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:52
			the limits
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:54
			against their own souls,
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:56
			If you make Tawba Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:58
			will forgive you, He forgives all sins.
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:01
			So if you humble yourself in front of
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:03
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala He will forgive you,
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:05
			and if you forgive other people Allah Subhanahu
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:07
			Wa Ta'ala will be forgiving towards you. So
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:09
			inshallah, we'll continue the discussion about
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:12
			the quality of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala and
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:14
			Mafiras of other time, Jazak Alafi.
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:16
			So the question
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:17
			for last night,
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:20
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala gives wahi in the
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:22
			Quran only to Prophets, but how come He
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:25
			gave wahi to Umma Musa? In Surat Kasas,
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:25
			Wa'uhayna
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:27
			ila umimusa al Adai'i.
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:30
			So the Alama'a say there are 2 different
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:32
			types of Wahi in the Quran. There is
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:35
			Wahi exclusively for the Prophets, which is revelation.
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:37
			Wa wahihi a ilaalmuhiinawhiinalal
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:41
			Musa so this is called Wahihi Revelation
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			but there is also another type of Wahihi
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:45
			which is called Inspiration
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:46
			Ilham
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:49
			So Waahhayna ilaalami Musa We inspired
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:51
			the Mother of Musa
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:55
			and Allah inspired, gave wahi to the bees,
		
00:08:56 --> 00:08:58
			on how to build their houses, and how
		
00:08:58 --> 00:08:59
			to make honey.
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:01
			So, this type of wahi inspiration is to
		
00:09:01 --> 00:09:03
			guide you to do the best thing, and
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:06
			this covers humans, and animals, and birds, and
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:08
			the rest of Allah's creation.
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:10
			So it doesn't mean revelation, in in in
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:12
			the case of the mother of Musa alaihis
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:14
			salam, the winner is brother Munir al Vaher.
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:17
			Mashallah Takbeer.
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:20
			Asant, gujabbaraklovic. The question
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:22
			for tonight is difficult.
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:26
			Who takes your soul when you die?
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:28
			In one Ayah in the Quran Allah Subh'anaHu
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:31
			Wa Ta'ala says Allah wuya tawafal amhusaheinumotia.
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:33
			It is Allah who takes your soul when
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:36
			you die. In another ayah, Allah Subhanahu Wa
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:38
			Ta'ala says, Kuliya Tawafaaqummaalakul
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:41
			maawtill lavi wukila bikum. It is the Angel
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:43
			of death that takes your soul when you
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:45
			when you die. So who is taking your
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:47
			soul? Is it Allah or the Angel of
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:48
			Death? If you know the answer you may
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:51
			believe before tomorrow Asr al at imamustafaa atanatoliasinturab.
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:53
			C h. Is that Allah?
