00:00:55 --> 00:00:57
			We know that the Quran came from Allah
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59
			and Makkul, so it basically talks about the
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:02
			same thing. It doesn't matter which opinion you
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:05
			follow. So tonight, we'll focus a little bit
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:06
			on the Quran,
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			right, and the significance
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:11
			of the Quran. Ramadan is the month of
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:13
			the Quran. Everyone knows this. Right? Quran in
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:16
			the month of Quran. And the prophet
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:17
			used to review
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:21
			the Quran with Jibril alaihis salam once every
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			Ramadan, but the year in which the prophet
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:23
			passed
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:27
			away, he revised it twice with Jibril alaihis
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:29
			salam. So he's recommended to read the Quran,
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:32
			use it in salah, study the tafsir, and
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:33
			so on and so forth.
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			Those of you who studied Islamic Sciences,
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:40
			they know that the Quran preserved the Arabic
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:41
			language.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:44
			Without the Quran, the Arabic language would happen
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:45
			like Greek or Latin.
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:48
			They're not in use anymore. Right? But because
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			of the Quran,
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:51
			people use the Quran, they recite the Quran,
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:53
			and so on and so forth. The Arabic
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:54
			language was preserved
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:58
			because of the Quran. So many Islamic sciences
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:00
			were based on the Quran.
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:04
			I it was very interesting to for me
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:04
			to find out that the, the size of
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:04
			algebra was developed because of the Quran and
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:06
			the concept of the size of algebra
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:09
			was developed because of the Quran and the
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			concept of the inheritance made up in the
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:13
			Quran. Because the Arlema wanted to,
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			to be able to distribute the shares of
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:17
			inheritance
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:20
			fairly, so he developed this science, right, of
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:23
			algebra. Right? So this one thing,
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:25
			in Bella,
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:28
			elephants, Qur'at,
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:29
			tashweed,
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32
			rulum al Quran. Right? All these
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:36
			all these sciences were based on on the
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			Quran. Right? And so on and so forth.
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:39
			So also, kind of,
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:42
			says that a Muslim has to be connected
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:43
			with the Quran.
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:47
			Whatever you are looking for, whatever questions or
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:49
			challenges you have in life, the answer is
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:50
			always in the Quran.
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:52
			Whether we're talking about tawhid,
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:55
			whether we're talking about your relationship with Allah.
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:57
			Quran talks about all these things, the qualities
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:00
			of Allah, how to worship Him, it talks
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:02
			about the history of the Prophet SAW and
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:02
			the Sahaba,
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:05
			the stories of the prophets with their peoples,
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:07
			and so on and so forth. If we're
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:10
			talking about Ibadah, if we're talking about akhla,
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:13
			manners, if we're talking about politics, it's all
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:16
			in the Quran, how to govern, and so
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:17
			on and so forth, how to lead by
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:20
			example. If we talk about economics,
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:22
			if we talk about halal and halal and
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:24
			riba, if you talk about
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:27
			social life, if we talk about family relations,
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:28
			marriage, divorce, inheritance,
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:32
			custody of the children, All these signs are
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:34
			in the Quran. War and peace,
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:37
			the relationship between Muslims and non Muslims, life
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:39
			in this dunya, Allah and Adha,
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:43
			Jannah, Jahannam, Kisaab, judgment, the wave of Adis.
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:45
			Everything is there in the Quran.
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:47
			So all you need to do is dig
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:49
			in the Quran and look for the jims
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:51
			and the jewels of the Quran.
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:52
			For the last 1500
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:53
			years,
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:56
			scholars have been digging in the Quran, and
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:58
			they have been, you know, finding all these
		
00:03:58 --> 00:03:59
			great
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:02
			findings in the Quran in different sciences and
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:05
			in different fields. Right? So you as a
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:05
			Muslim,
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:06
			yes,
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:09
			it's good to memorize the Quran and everything.
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:10
			But Imam Khayla
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:13
			says that the people of the Quran,
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:16
			yes. If they memorize Alhamdulillah. But if
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:18
			they don't know the meaning of the Quran
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:20
			and they don't apply it to their lives,
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:22
			they are not the people of the Quran.
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:23
			They're just kafar.
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:24
			But if someone
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:26
			reads the nafsir of the Quran
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:29
			and they understand the meaning, if they can
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:31
			memorize Alhamdulillah, this is excellent. Now they are
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:34
			the people of the Quran. So, again, whatever
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:35
			situation you have in life, whatever
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:37
			challenges you face,
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:40
			look into the Quran and you will find
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:41
			and you will find the answers and the
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:42
			solutions.
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:43
			If you go to YouTube,
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:47
			there are so many people, scholars and priests
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:50
			and ministers, people from every faith who accepted
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:52
			Islam just because they read the Quran and
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:55
			they found solutions to their problems or their
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:57
			challenges. The examples are so many. Right? You
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			can just go to them or go to
		
00:04:59 --> 00:04:59
			YouTube.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			I'm gonna leave you with this. And as
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:04
			usual, I'll conclude with a small story
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:05
			to,
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:09
			clarify the meaning of we have not neglected
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:10
			anything in the book.
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:13
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is talking about the
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:15
			Quran. He never neglected anything in the book
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:18
			whether he specifies it clearly in the Quran
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:20
			or he gives you general guidelines
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:22
			to know what is right and what is
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:22
			wrong.
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:25
			The story is a true story. It happened
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:27
			in the US several years ago several years
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:30
			ago. They said it was a Muslim, student
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:31
			in the class.
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:34
			He was practicing. He he writes Quran and
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:37
			everything. Right? And the professor was a Muslim,
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:40
			but he was a secular. Right? A secular.
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:40
			Right?
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:41
			So
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:44
			the Muslim student wrote a paper about the
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:46
			Quran, and he says he cited this ad
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:48
			that Allah says in the Quran that he
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			never neglected anything in the book.
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:53
			And he says in the in in the
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:54
			paper that
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:55
			America
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:58
			has all solutions for all its problems in
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:01
			political, economic, social problems in the Quran because
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:04
			Allah never neglected anything in the Quran. The
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:06
			secular professor disagreed
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:09
			and he says Allah does not explain everything
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:11
			in the Quran. Right? The Quran doesn't talk
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:13
			about everything. It talks about some things but
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:14
			not everything.
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:16
			So the Muslim student said no. If Allah
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:18
			says it in the Quran that he never
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:19
			neglected
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:22
			anything, it has to be true. So the
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:23
			professor gave him a challenge,
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:25
			and he says,
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:29
			where does Allah talk about my gold head
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:31
			in the Quran? He didn't have hair. Right?
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:34
			Where does Allah talk about my gold head
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:36
			in the Quran? So the student said, it's
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:37
			easy. It's in the Quran.
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:45
			Right?
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:48
			So he said, Allah says in the Quran,
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:49
			the good man
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:50
			will
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:51
			produce
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:53
			immensely or to, a lot,
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:54
			but
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:57
			a, an evil land will not produce anything.
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:59
			So he talks about your head. So may
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:01
			I apologize if someone is bald?
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:04
			No offense. Right? I'm not talking about you.
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:06
			Right? The question
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:24
			they are dependent on him or they stand
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:26
			on need, in need of him whether they
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:28
			pray to him or judge, whether they acknowledge
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:29
			him or not.
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:32
			Day in and day out, he has something
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:33
			to bring about.
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:36
			He gives life to someone, he takes someone's
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:38
			life. He makes someone rich, he makes someone
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:41
			poor. He gives an rizah to someone or
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:43
			he disgraces someone. This is the meaning of
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:45
			the ayat in the winter of his sister,
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:45
			Semiah.
