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