Mustafa Khattab – Telling the Truth

00:02:24 --> 00:02:25

			Will lead to piety, righteousness,
		

00:02:26 --> 00:02:27

			and good deeds.
		

00:02:28 --> 00:02:28

			And
		

00:02:29 --> 00:02:32

			the person will keep telling the truth until
		

00:02:32 --> 00:02:34

			he is written with Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		

00:02:34 --> 00:02:36

			as a teller of the truth
		

00:02:37 --> 00:02:38

			and vice versa.
		

00:03:08 --> 00:03:09

			So a Muslim
		

00:03:09 --> 00:03:12

			can be anything except Halal because
		

00:03:13 --> 00:03:15

			a liar is the opposite of a Muslim.
		

00:03:15 --> 00:03:17

			A Muslim is the teller of the truth.
		

00:04:29 --> 00:04:32

			And when your insight is in agreement with
		

00:04:32 --> 00:04:35

			your looks or appearance. So this is telling
		

00:04:35 --> 00:04:35

			the truth.
		

00:06:24 --> 00:06:24

			You have to be honest with Allah Subhanahu
		

00:06:24 --> 00:06:24

			Wa Ta'ala, which means you shouldn't show off.
		

00:06:24 --> 00:06:25

			If you give someone a chance,
		

00:06:26 --> 00:06:27

			you do it.
		

00:06:28 --> 00:06:30

			Not that the people will say, oh, he
		

00:06:30 --> 00:06:33

			is Jawadu Kani, he is a generous guy.
		

00:06:33 --> 00:06:36

			You do it for Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
		

00:06:36 --> 00:06:38

			purely for the sake of Allah.
		

00:06:51 --> 00:06:54

			And this includes, of course, being honest with
		

00:06:54 --> 00:06:56

			your family members, friends, and the people in
		

00:06:56 --> 00:06:56

			the street,
		

00:06:57 --> 00:06:59

			and in your in your tax form when
		

00:06:59 --> 00:06:59

			you,
		

00:07:00 --> 00:07:02

			apply for taxes. You have to tell the
		

00:07:02 --> 00:07:02

			truth regardless.
		

00:07:04 --> 00:07:07

			Number 3, being honest with yourself.
		

00:07:08 --> 00:07:09

			We are all humans.
		

00:07:09 --> 00:07:12

			We have defects in our personalities and character.
		

00:07:13 --> 00:07:15

			If you know, for example, that you backbite
		

00:07:16 --> 00:07:16

			people,
		

00:07:17 --> 00:07:18

			you have to recognize
		

00:07:19 --> 00:07:22

			this defect in your personality and therefore, Allah
		

00:07:22 --> 00:07:25

			will help you get over this problem.
		

00:07:27 --> 00:07:29

			If you don't pray on time, you have
		

00:07:29 --> 00:07:30

			to be honest with yourself
		

00:09:07 --> 00:09:08

			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala exalts prophets in the
		

00:09:08 --> 00:09:08

			Quran
		

00:09:09 --> 00:09:12

			and describes them as tellers of the truth.
		

00:09:12 --> 00:09:14

			And this is one of the prerequisites
		

00:09:15 --> 00:09:18

			of prophethood in Islam. A prophet has to
		

00:09:18 --> 00:09:19

			be honest and truthful
		

00:09:20 --> 00:09:20

			with the people.
		

00:09:37 --> 00:09:39

			You have to tell the truth no matter
		

00:09:39 --> 00:09:40

			what.
		

00:10:00 --> 00:10:02

			You have to tell the truth no matter
		

00:10:02 --> 00:10:02

			what.
		

00:10:03 --> 00:10:05

			And as I say in Arabic,
		

00:10:05 --> 00:10:08

			the truth will set you free.
		

00:10:09 --> 00:10:11

			You will be safe if you tell the
		

00:10:11 --> 00:10:13

			truth. Because sometimes we think if you lie
		

00:10:13 --> 00:10:14

			to our parents,
		

00:10:14 --> 00:10:16

			we're not gonna be punished.
		

00:10:17 --> 00:10:19

			If we lie to the principal and the
		

00:10:19 --> 00:10:19

			school,
		

00:10:20 --> 00:10:21

			they will not be disciplined.
		

00:16:41 --> 00:16:41

			The
		

00:17:52 --> 00:17:54

			and we stayed behind.
		

00:17:54 --> 00:17:56

			Maybe you will be mad at us for
		

00:17:56 --> 00:17:58

			a few days or a few weeks, but
		

00:17:58 --> 00:17:58

			Allah
		

00:18:00 --> 00:18:00

			will
		

00:18:01 --> 00:18:03

			tell you reveal to you that we're telling
		

00:18:03 --> 00:18:05

			the truth, so you'll forgive us.
		

00:22:03 --> 00:22:05

			And Allah gave us freedom.
		

00:22:06 --> 00:22:08

			We were poor and Allah
		

00:22:08 --> 00:22:09

			made us rich.
		

00:22:10 --> 00:22:12

			We were the tallest of the low and
		

00:22:12 --> 00:22:13

			Allah
		

00:22:13 --> 00:22:14

			honored us
		

00:22:42 --> 00:22:43

			I made this, I made this, I made
		

00:22:43 --> 00:22:46

			this, not even talking to them about slavery
		

00:22:46 --> 00:22:49

			and about poverty and about all that stuff.
		

00:22:49 --> 00:22:50

			What for?
		

00:22:50 --> 00:22:53

			So his brother told him, be quiet.
		

00:22:53 --> 00:22:56

			Allah madam you to this honorable lady because
		

00:22:56 --> 00:22:57

			of the truth,
