Mustafa Khattab – Friends 1

Allah Subhanahu Wa'ala

guides,

so choose your friends very carefully.

Allah subhanahu wa'ala speaks about choosing the right

friends and there are so many stories in

the Quran there are many stories in the

hadith of the Prophet

So even though Allah subhanahu wa'ala speaks about

your spouse,

your husband or wife, he calls them companion

or friend.

So not only Allah subhanahu wa'ala talks about

choosing a friend, but he also talks about

choosing

their fingers out of regret and remorse. And

they will say, we wish that we followed

the prophet and the his suina, we follow

him closely,

and we wish we didn't follow these evil

people who kept us away or drove us

away from a straight path.

And the most common law says at the

end, Shaitan

will lift his face on the day of

judgement. He will lift it down.

Friends will be enemies to one another

except with friends, the righteous

friends.

So the good, the bad, because there are

some in between.

He was a good Muslim. So he said,

no. I'm not going there.

He looked through a window

between Jannah and Hellfire, and he saw a

string in the basement of Jannah.

To following you and falling in the hand

of light. So this is an intelligent

friend. So he cut off his companionship with

him because he was taking him to the

wrong place.

I didn't know that. You know that the

difference between the 2.

So, you go to school with some people

or you are acquainted with someone or you

said with them, you work with them, you

tell them for example, let's go and pray

in the mission. There's a lecture in the

mission. The brother will tell you, well, you

know, I have a problem. I hear, I

can't hear, you know, I can't go. You

know I can't

then we'll tell them okay let's go and

let's go out and chase girls okay let's

go what about you here I'm okay now

okay so let's start with going to the

message then let's go and chase the women

out

I can't hear you like, you know the

problem I have a problem right here. So,

whenever you want to do something good

if they leave you away then they are

not good friends. If they motivate you and

encourage you these are the friends who take

you and they show you a Surah of

Mustafiq.

So these are the types of prayers that

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala means about the end

of Tu'ba.

Also,

you are as good or as bad as

your friends as the prophet

says in the hadith.

In dunya al Adal. You will get the

same treat that they get in dunya

and the same in Adal. Okay. So for

example, we are sitting in the masjid or

you are sitting somewhere with the righteous

you and your friends.

You are reading Quran together, you are studying

together, and someone came to the masjid and

decided to give food or give gifts to

everybody sitting in the masjid.

What if you are sitting there in the

side, you're not doing anything, and you are

just listening to them, you will get the

exact same reward.

Okay. Then the Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala Alaiqeed

if you are sitting with them you are

one of them. But

if you have friends

they are sitting in somebody in the apartment

and they are doing drugs or they are

doing something wrong

and the place is raided by the police.

Whether I'm just sitting with them you're not

doing anything,

we just go with it to the nightclub,

you sit on the side or play with

your phone or not actually doing anything wrong

with them

and the place is raided by the police.

Do you think they will leave you and

they take the rest?

Oh, I was not doing anything. I'm just

logging the floor, you know. I was not

doing drugs with them. Of course, they will

take you with them.

Why? Because if you are sitting with them,

you are one of them. And the same

way happens on the day of judgment, in

the stories until today in the next sight.

An example for the first,

example we gave, because I am Fad

so in this beautiful kadeem, the Zayin al

Fayed and Nusun narrated by,

Abu Bay Allahu Anhu, the prophet

says there are honorable Barak angels

they fly out

So when they return to the

What if they have seen it? Then the

Al Aqsa will say, you Allah, Allah, if

they will be more keen

to ask for

it. They will be more keen to ask

for it in pursuit of Jannah, then Allah

will ask, what are you asking protection law

from me? So the Malaygo will say, you

are asking protection from Jahannam, the hellfire.

Then Allah subhanahu wa'ala, obviously, have they seen

the empire? They haven't seen them, but have

they seen it, Jannah?

Then it'll also kind of, I will say,

their name is that I have forgiven all

of them. This group of people who were

sitting together, glorifying me, and praising me, and

remembering me.

So Lot of people will say,

You Allah, but wait. There's someone who is

sitting with them. He's not actually one of

them. He was just sitting in the to

his side waiting for Muhammad to finish because

he wants to borrow money, to buy a

car, or something. He didn't come exclusively to

remember Allah or people out of anything. He's

just sitting to the side. He's just listening

to it. He's not one of them. So

Allah subhanahu wa'ala will say if he's sitting

with them, he is one of them. He

is also forgiven like them.

So this is Sabir al Khaim You are

as good as the people you are sitting

with and you are as bad as people

you are sitting with.

Inshallah,

salukh

the Surah Al Khashqah,

the Surah you read on Friday, you will

see that Allah subhanahu wa'ala honored

a dog 4 times on the same page.

The Zohi is mentioned 4 times

because he was in the company of the

righteous, good people. So Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

honored him just like He honored them. So

on the same page, the word die is

mentioned 4 times.

Of course, the most common and I will

give us a bit of honor than this.

When you read in Surah Al Qas

where Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala speaks about the

companions of the Faire, his soldiers and hamam

and his people,

Allah, khanahu, a'la, disgraced him twice from the

same page at the beginning of Surah Al

Qasas.

Be God they were always in the company

of someone who is a just, someone who

is a tyrant.

So I always say at the beginning, you

are as good or as bad as your

friends, so select and choose your friends carefully.

We'll continue next slide inshallah.
