And I hope that you enjoyed.
And I ask all our
good deeds and fasting, prayers, and charity, and
everything.
And to reward us fully
for these good deeds according to the best
of
Okay. This is a common mistake.
And, most people make this mistake because the
number of ahadith here quoted. He narrated more
than 5,300
ahadith, more than any other Sahaba.
The second one in the list of Sahaba
who narrated most Hadith is Abu Lahun Amba.
He narrated,
2,600.
Then Abu Lahun Abbas around 2,600.
So my first encounter with Abu Raitan
was
when I was 9 years old. I used
to go to Allah's heart.
So my teacher told me that you need
to, to do what
the, Lohai is what Roshan is.
It's like a poster it's like a poster
to put on a classroom. So I made
that hadith narrated by Abu Raya, then in
the footnote in that poster,
I made a portrait of Abu Raya, a
man with a long beard, a turban, a
sword, and a cap on his hand. Because
the reason Abu Raya got this name
Abu Raya is not his name. His name
was Abu
The reason he got the name Abu Ryla
was because he used to have a little
cat kitten when he,
a little kitten and he used to feed
it and and play with it. So the
Sahaba called him Abu Ryla, literally the owner
of the little cat or kitten.
So this is where he got his name.
So I made this portrait, and I went
to the school,
in the morning. I was dancing in the
street happy that the teacher will, will be
happy with me and to the contrary. He
gave me a hard time. And he said,
you idiot. We don't make pictures of the
Sahaba.
I told him I didn't know. I didn't
know.
So
from that day on, I realized that we
are not allowed to make pictures or depict
the Sahaba.
You probably have heard of a Hassan al
Qasay series in in Ramadan,
and most of the scholars say we are
not allowed to make pictures of the Sahaba
because usually,
what you remember from the movie or the
series is the actor himself, not the Sahaba.
So every time
I think of Hamza, ibn Abdul Muttalib, the
Allahu Anhu, I remember Anthony Quinn.
I don't remember Hamza anymore.
And the other thing is most of the
time, the actors will play the role of
the Sahaba
are not the best,
morally and ethically.
Some of them are drunkards. They are known
for,
their adventures and stuff. So why would you
associate the Sahaba, the finest and the best
human beings that have ever walked the face
of this earth
with some guys who are not, you know,
the the best to say the least. Okay?
So the scholars said you cannot
show the family of the prophet salallahu alayhi
wa sallam in movies,
and the Sahaba will get the news of
gender,
the 10. But this also, by the way
of analogy, includes all the Sahaba who died
as believers. Because the Quran says that all
the companions, the Muhajirun,
from Makkah and the Asaf from Adina, Allah
is pleased with them,
and he promises them Jannah. So technically,
all the Sahaba of the prophet, sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam, God then used of Jannah while
they were living with the prophet, so we
shouldn't limit it only to the 10.
So
this is the ruling in this case.
Also, and of course,
most importantly, the family of the.
We cannot show his wives or his children
or his
cousin and so on and so forth.
So the reason why Abu Huraira
reported all these ahadith
was because of his dedication
to learning from the prophet
So Abu Hayr said that the Sahaba from
Makkah used to do business
most of the time,
and the people from Madinah, the Muhajb, the
Ansar, they dedicated most of their time to,
cultivating land and their farms, so they didn't
have time
to learn from the Prophet
as much as I did.
The other reason was we were saying that
technically, Abubayar was rich. He was not poor.
Before Islam, he was a servant of a
lady from Makna.
Bussa bintu Asma, she was a rich lady,
and he was her servant.
He used to clean the house for her,
cook for her, go with him when they
travel to tend to the animals, and so
on and so forth.
And after Islam, Allah, Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, honored
him, and the lady married him. So technically,
he got all her money. He became rich,
but
he didn't enjoy that money. He dedicated most
of his money to Fisabilelah,
and he joined the prophet, and he stayed
in the Masjid to learn from the prophet,
and this is the
reason, why he narrated most of the hadith,
because he dedicated most of his time to
learning from the prophet, That's
all you need to learn something.
All you need is time
and dedication.
If you want to learn anything, you have
to have these 2,
time and dedication.
Time and dedication.
Stayed in the Masjid for a long time,
and most of the time he was hungry.
So one day he said, I felt
starving, and I was about to die.
So much so that I tied a stone
to my stomach, so I wouldn't feel the
pains of hunger.
So he went he said, I went out.
I would pretend like I wanna ask one
of the Sahaba a question in 5th or
Quran or whatever.
So they would see my miserable condition, they
would invite me to their house. So he
said, I met Abu Bakr, then I met
Omar. I asked them the question, although I
knew the answer of the question better than
Abu Bakr and
but they didn't understand my intention so they
just gave me the answer and they ran
away. Then the Prophet SAW Salam came and
he said, Okay, I know what you what
you want, Follow
me. So he took him to his house
and he said, sit
here. Then the prophet
brought
a container with milk,
and he said, somebody,
gave this to me as a gift, the
milk.
Because he said, I thought that the Prophet
will give me to drink, now he's asking
me to go and invite the people in
the Masjid. And this is more contagious, it's
not gonna,
suffice or be sufficient for these people.
But eventually,
he gave up, he went and invited them,
and the prophet told him to give them
to drink.
And every time the container was it became
empty, it was filled up automatically.
And that was one of the miracles of
the prophet, the food was multiplied
by the Barakah of the prophet,
At the end, when the people dragged to
their fullest,
the prophet SAW Salam gave up a bunch
to Jacob,
and he started to drink and drink and
drink. And every time they, container or the
bowl was empty, it it was full again.
And until Abu Bulaia said, I was literally
I was about to explode.
My stomach was about to explode, and I
said, oh, prophet of Allah, I can't drink
anymore. And the prophet of Allah kept saying,
drink, drink, drink.
And until he said, okay, Prophet of Allah,
I don't find a space in my stomach
for this. I'm about to explode, literally. So
the Prophet SAW
said, smiled and he took the container and
he started to, drink.
The last thing we miss him for today,
although Abu Ghayla was one of the last
people to accept Islam in the time of
the prophet,
he stay with him only for 3 years,
he narrated a hadith more than anyone else
in the Sahaba,
and the same is true for us in
our time. If someone is not practicing,
if someone is 60 or 70 years old
in Islam, but they're not practicing,
they have spent all their life in sin.
It is never too late. You always have
the time to repent and come back to
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
and you can do more than than the
people who have been Muslim all their lives.
You can do more than them. The door
is always open. And Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
gives you a gift in the Quran. Surat
Al Furqan,
chapter 25,
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
So Allah
gives you a gift in the Quran.
If you return back to Allah
regardless of your sins,
regardless of the how many years you have
been sinning,
Allah
says, as long as you come back to
me
repentance and ask for forgiveness, Allah
will forgive you and turn you all your
evil sins since the past sins that you
have committed into good deeds. And Allah is
the most forgiving and the most,
merciful.
It is never too late. The door is
always open
and the deadline for accepting the,
repentance of a servant is when the person
is about to give up his soul.
The
prophet
says, the person's,
for asking for forgiveness or turning back to
Allah
asking for forgiveness, will always be accepted as
long as the person is not dying.
But because if if someone is dying, and
now they are saying, oh Allah forgive me,
it is too late. You have lived 50
or 60 or 30 or 70 years. Now,
when you are giving up your last breath,
you're asking for forgiveness,
it is not accepted.
But any time before, it will be accepted.
