So in this story,
Al Hajaz was a tyrant,
just like the guys who live today at
home.
He got a man.
A lady came to him to intercede
because he wanted to kill 3 men. So
she came to intercede for her husband,
her son,
and her brother.
These were the 3 men he took. So
she said, these are the only people left
for me. Nobody is is there to take
care of me except these 3.
So he
said, because I'm a good guy, I have
a big heart. He was a tyrant. He
said, I have a big heart. I'm gonna
leave one for you, take him home with
you, but I'm gonna kill the other 2.
Fat, she chose her brother.
Why?
Because
if her husband
was killed, she would go ahead and marry
another guy,
and she would give birth to other kids.
Right? But
her father was dead. Her mother was dead.
She didn't have no brothers, no sisters, so
that was the only one left for her.
So she couldn't get another one.
So this topic today is a very important
one. It's it breaks my heart all the
time when people come to me complaining
that their brother
took the land and they took the share
of inheritance.
Everywhere I go, I get the same complaint.
It breaks my heart. Now people break off
their relationships
with their family and their their brothers and
sisters because of this, because of the inheritance.
Now, you put your relationship with your brother
or your sister on one hand and you
put that peace of mind or that money
on the other hand, and most people go
for the land and go for the money
and
to heck with their brothers and sisters, and
they cut off their relationships.
In this authentic Hadith,
in Bukhali al Muslim, the prophet
says, whoever takes a piece of land that
doesn't belong to him,
especially from his family or brothers and sisters,
then on the day of judgment, that piece
of land will be chained to his neck
and it will collapse
with him to the 7th earth.
It will collapse with him. So this is
the punishment. It shows you that this grace
that this person will,
experience on the day of judgement.
So the the story
is usually mentioned
in relation to the story of Sahib al
Nizayl. He was one of the 10 Sahaba
who got the news of Jannah.
So a lady
went to the ruler of Madinah, Barwar al
Hakim, and she said, he took my land.
He took my land.
So
Marwan,
Sayid al Nizaid said, how can I take
your land after I saw the prophet sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam with my own eyes,
say, if a person takes a piece of
land that doesn't belong to him, then Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala will chain it to his
neck on the day of judgement, and it
will collapse with him to the 7th earth?
Wallahi, I didn't take anything, so Saeed al
Hakam or or the, the the ruler of
Badira said, okay. I don't need any other
proof from you. Go to your house. So
Saeed ibn Zayed, the man who was accused,
said, oh, Allah, if you know that she
is a liar,
make her blind
and make her land or make her grave
in her land. So the narrator of the
hadith Ra'uwata Musulay said, bye, Allah.
I lived long enough
to see that lady blind in Madinah,
touching or feeling the the the the, walls
of homes to to get to her house.
So she got blind and she couldn't go
to her house.
And one day, she was walking in her
land and there was a well, and she
fell in that well and she died in
it, and that became her grave.
And that was their the answer
to the dua of Sayeed
So the problem what do you need to
do? If you took something from your brother
or your sister, you have to give it
back. It is not yours. Okay?
What is yours? Don't give it to anyone.
But what is other people's, you have to
give it back to them. Because the prophet
says in this hadith, if you owe something
to your brother or your sister, you have
to give it, back to them before the
day of judgement. Because on the day of
judgement, there's no dollar,
there's no pound, there's no riyam, there's no
lira.
What you will do on that day, you
will deal with Hassanat and Sayyad.
If you owe somebody something like your brother
and sister, you took their land, you took
their money, then Allah will take from your
Hassanat and give them.
If you don't have Hassanat, Allah will take
from their Sayyad evil deeds, and he will
put it on you. Then if nothing is
left for you, then
gone.
Okay. I didn't take the land.
My father took all the land and gave
it to me. I didn't take it. So
if my father
was is to blame because he took all
the land, he gave it to me. I
didn't take it of my own free will.
Okay. If your father did a mistake, you
have to correct the mistake,
or you will share in the senate.
If you don't correct the mistake, then your
kids will have to correct the mistakes.
Because the the rights of people,
yeah, they have to give him have to
be given back even after 100 of years.
The passage of time is not,
does not waive the rights of people. You
have to give it for your children or
their children. You have to give it back.
So Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says in the
Quran,
will it be that when Allah Subhanahu Wa
Ta'ala establishes you in the land that you
become corrupt and you cut off your relationships
with your family and brothers and sisters
by taking their land, so you have to
give it back.
Otherwise, you'll be punished for this.
So I know the story of a man
and his sister.
The father of these 2 gave all the
land to 1, the man, and he deprived
the the door.
So after 30 or 40 years in courts,
that man died. And one of his children
decided to give back the rights to that
lady. And Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, because that
man
was sincere enough and he wanted to give
back what was taken from his aunt, Allah
sent him
$8,000 He paid,
all the money or her money from that
man, money and he took some of it
as a word from Allah
So he didn't pay a single penny from
his father. It was all from Allah.
So the man in the story is my
father
and the lady is my aunt and that
little
child in the story is myself. So if
you want to pay back, then Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala will reward you for your sincerity.
That's Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
