So every now and then, we honor some
of our youth and young people who come
to the salah. They are very disciplined, very,
very,
so, inshallah, others can follow their example. And
today, our pick is Mohammed al Shasi and
Ibrahim al Shasi. Where are they?
Al Fali.
So, mashaAllah, they never miss us salah.
They come to the message more than me.
So one of the qualities of a Muslim
is that he has knowledge.
Knowledge of what? Knowledge of Allah
in terms of his
the attributes of Allah
and how to worship Allah and how to
have tawah and khashiya from Allah. This
almoo bil Islam wal kalam walhamd. So most
every single Muslim has to have this knowledge.
Including engineering,
medicine, and and so on and so forth.
So the third type of knowledge is the,
prohibited knowledge.
No Muslim should ever raise his time in
such type of knowledge, like learning how to
dance
magic and all that stuff.
Al Al'il, your fa'i al insan in dunya
with a firo.
The more knowledge you have in this dunya,
the more exalted you'll be in the sight
of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala in this dunya
and Aslam.
I remember
10 15 years ago, I was
a fresh student at Al Azhar and I
asked,
a friend of mine who was from Nigeria.
What is the name of your president in
Nigeria? He was in Egypt for several years
so he said don't no go care.
I said, who is your favorite? Your favorite?
He said, I'm the boss of.
He
gave me a list of 10 people.
There are so many scholars in Muslim history
that we still remember till this day, and
there were 1,000 or 100 of, kings and
rulers and presidents all over, and we don't
remember most of them.
Or the knowledge of the prophet and his
sunnah, or the knowledge of halal and haram.
Every single man, every single woman in the
Muslim community, they have to have this knowledge.
Ignorance is not an excuse anymore. You have
Masajid.
So,
and then and Rashid Harun al Rashid, one
day he was sitting with his wife, Zubaydah,
and he loved her so much. So she
said something, he said something, and he got
so mad and he said, you know what?
If you stay in my kingdom tonight, you
are divorced.
Big problem.
So they invited a lot of scholars to
give them fuck, well, how can we solve
this problem? No one could solve it. So
eventually, they invited,
Abu Yusuf, who was the scholar. He was
a student of Imam Abu Hanifa. So he
said, it's very easy if you don't want
her to stay in your kingdom.
She will stay in the masjid. The masjid
is not in your kingdom. Masa'id are only
for Allah. They are not in your kingdom.
And everyone
was happy. She was not divorced. The next
day, they prepared a big lunch for him,
big big waleema.
And one type of food they put in
front of him was kadoodish.
It's like bazebusa, a certain type of food,
a dessert, and they put on it the
royal jelly from the from the beef,
and they put pistachios, which was very rare
at that time. Sometimes kings couldn't find that
type of food, the saludah.
He ate from it. He loved it so
much. He said, what is this kind of
food? They said, there's saloodles with,
royal jelly and pistachios. So he started to
cry. They said, why are you crying? He
said, because I remembered Imam Abu Hanifa.
When I was a little kid, I used
my mom used to send me to work,
and and sometimes I used to skip work
and go to his halakhah and sit at
the back and listen to his knowledge to
gain knowledge from him. So one day, my
mother was passing by, she saw me and
she said, you are wasting your time with,
fift and his books and all that stuff.
It has no future, man. It has no
future. So remember, Khalifa heard what she said,
and she said he said,
I'm teaching him knowledge
that will make him sit with kings and
eat falooded with pistachios.
So he remembered his teacher his his teacher.
So the ayah that you can read from
forwards and backwards is, Surah Al Burdafir.
And the the winner is sister Sahel Akhoor.
Alright.
So the prophet says there are 10 aya's
in the Quran at the beginning of one
surah in the Quran. If you read or
memorize these 10 aya's, Allah will protect you
from the dajjaf. If you know the answer,
you mail me before us tomorrow at cic
imamandg will then come to Zara tomorrow.
