What could be the art in Walla Walla coladas in Vietnam about I asked Allah subhanho wa Taala that just as he is gathered us here today on the day of July, may Allah subhanho wa Taala gather us along with our families in Japan for those who are

Hola. Mirabella Alameen, we ask Allah subhana wa Taala to make us with a to gather us along with our families in Japan for those that Allah is the companionship of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in his Sahaba Amir Oberon Amin

when we studied the Quran, Allah subhanho wa Taala there's a very beautiful idea and sort of Hadith. This is pretty much sums up the what is the progression and how is a person misguided. Allah subhanho wa Taala

says, you and I do not whom alumna, Kumarakom, Allah subhanho wa taala. He paints a picture for us. And that picture is that on the Day of Judgment, you have the moon and the moon on, you have the true believers and you have the hypocrites, and these hypocrites because they are devoid of Allah's nude. Because of their hypocrisy, they will identify those same people they were within this dunya who are amongst the believers and they will say that why don't you wait for us we want to benefit from your node. And at that time Allah subhanho wa Taala says that they will be a wall or they will be a partition or a barrier that will come between the two groups of people and these people will

not be able to benefit from these people who are the believers, the Munna African will not be able to benefit from the believers. But when this question will be asked the munafo and they will ask the believers that you're acting as if you don't even know us. You know, do not home alumna Kumarakom it will be as that were we with you. We used to hang out with each other we used to see each other at the masjid we used to see each other at the Darwaza and so forth. And now you're acting as if you don't even know me. At that time. There will be said these munaf you will be told Paul Lou Bala The believers will tell them yes indeed we do remember who you are. Well, I cannot confer tantalum and

full circle water or bust on water debitum. will hurt Kamala Imani. This is a progression of how a person deviates from the right path. They will be told that yes, you are with us. But number one is a you fell into sin. Well, I can confer tantrum and forsaken, you fell into sin. And then when you had the chance to come out of that sin, you did not come out of that sin. You remain persistent in that sin, what are our bustin, and as a result of you following your Shahar watts, your desires, and you made your desires as your focal point of your life, whatever term you fell into doubts, the reason why I shared this part of the this part of the idea is because this has led me to the next

part of my football is that when we talk about the greatest destructive things in our day to day life today, when it comes to our faith, when it comes to our iman, it really comes down to two things, every single sin every single fitna that you see that can eat that can take us away from Allah subhanho wa taala. It comes down to two things. And that is a shallot a schwa shuba hurts or doubts or desires. Interestingly in Arabic they both start with sheen in English they both start with these dolls and doubts and desires are shocked shuba hat was Jehovah desires or something that some people didn't follow and they have made it their focal point of life, as Allah says in the

Quran for a time money Takada Isla who Hawa? Have you seen that person who has made their desires their God? What does that mean? Just like for Allah, we make sacrifices, just like for a god, there are different people who did believe in different gods, a Muslim believes in Allah subhanho wa Taala for that Allah we will make sacrifices we will give up things that we love, and we love very much for Allah sake, a person who's a Christian, he will say, and you asked him who's a devout Christian, what is your entire life about he will say my entire life isn't reflection is a reflection of Jesus Christ. That's what they will say. Every person believes in whatever they believe in. But when you

sacrifice something, and when you make something the focal point that becomes your ILA. There are some people who have made their shallot, their ILA they have made the chawan their desires, anything that will bring them comfort, anything that even will take them from Allah subhanho wa Taala no problem, but I don't want to focus on this shiawase I want to focus on a shabiha today in this hotbar Inshallah, Shiva had our doubts. So Allah Subhana Allah is telling us that when a person falls into immense amount of sin, and they don't retract from that sin, they don't stop that sin. This will lead them into doubts Subhanallah every time we recite to the Fatiha, why he didn't do

vrna him well of Berlin at the end of Surah Fatiha Allah mentions three different categories of people. You have those ontology him the believers. Number two is a MCDU Viane him those people who incurred Allah's wrath, and number three is one of bonding those who went astray and mk boubyan Lay him is in reference to those people who followed their Usha Howard and Willa Baldwin is a reference to those people who follow their shabiha because shuba Hart and doubts leads you to kufr and today's Subhanallah we are living in a time. We're living truly in a time of fitna in a time where people are using social media to present their ideologies about Islam today

Our youth are at a crossroads. Why? Because there's so many doubts that circulate in their minds. They don't know what's right and what's wrong anymore. Unfortunately, so many of our adults in our teenagers and even our younger ones, they use social media as a platform to get their knowledge they're using. They're using social media as a platform to determine

what is halal and what is haram. Now, I will say this, that there are a lot of good things on social media. There are a lot of people who post good ideas, there are people who post good, you know, anecdotes, there are people who post good stories from hours from the Quran, the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, but when you go online, and you start to read, and you start to see Subhan, Allah, what you're seeing is that people are taking the Quran, they're taking the Sunnah of the Prophet salah, and they're manipulating it, not realizing brothers and sisters, that we have been warned about this. We had been warned about this many, many years ago, 1400 years ago, when the

Quran was revealed. Allah subhanho wa Taala told us about the previous nations, and one of their crimes was that they took the Quran they took the book of Allah, whether it was the total, or whether it was indeed, and what do they do to that, they changed it, they omitted it, they took they took things out of it, and they just left it the way it is, sometimes they will take certain things out of the book of Allah, and they will replace it with other things. They kept it concealed from the general public, they miss inform the general public, and not only that, but they took the words of Allah, they took the words of the Torah and they took the words of the NG and they changed it and

they misinterpreted the words of Allah subhanho What the Allah, Allah is telling us Allah is giving us a warning that just like previous nations did that. You also will come across something similar. We as the OMA the province, Salam are witnessing exactly that. We are witnessing exactly that. So the question is that when we find people who are taking halal and changing into haram or taking haram and changing into Halal which will seem so common nowadays, people who are social media enthusiast, people who are a social media, as they call them, you know, you know, they call them social media personnel and so forth. These are people who are on social media all the time, and

they're spreading and they're spilling their their misinformation and so forth. Today, how many feminist Subhanallah this feminist movement that has destroying our deen and so forth? Today there are so many women who are coming and changing Deen so many men who are coming and changing deen and there are saying that what Allah has made Haram is actually halal and so forth. Today when we see this. The question is how do we fight this fitna? When we see this fitna, how do we combat this fitna and I have few solutions that I want to share with you today. The very first thing that we have to understand brothers sisters when it comes to knowledge, and when it comes to our scholarship

is the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he says how you don't Rooney Ernie from Allah DNA Aluna home from Medina Luna home the Prophet saw some says that the best of generations is my generation mean the Sahaba or the Allah on home from my Lavinia Luna home then you have those who are who come after that media tab your own or the tabby or in those according to the the the correct definition. Those people who met the Sahaba of the Allah on whom they're called Tabby own and then you have the tabular tab your own you have those who actually met that tab your own so did not get to meet the Sahaba but they actually met the tab your own that makes them Tbit tab your own. The problem is is

I'm saying the people of these three generations are the best Hyrule karoun And what these people what these scholars did was they dedicated their entire life to studying Deen They dedicate their entire life to Quran and Sunnah of Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam In fact, there is a there is even a book known as or is the name of that book is Allah Allah Allah reserve. What is Allah mal or Zamin it's a book talking about the scholars who refrain and they stayed away from marriage, just simply because they want to study the Quran and the Sunnah of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, they dedicate their entire life to doing this purpose. They generated or Sula Hadith they generated or

pseudo faith in order to protect scholarship in order to protect the Quran in order to protect the Sunnah of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So what we need to do is we need to appreciate them for their hard work, and we need to appreciate them for their scholarship. But what we're seeing today is

See that people are coming afterwards, completely neglecting all the work that they have done. Just because what I've read an article because I've taken a one weekend intensive or I've taken few intensives I've attended this seminar or that seminar and what we are doing is we are comparing them we are comparing ourselves to them. A man came to me and said to me that what's the difference I'm a human being and he's a human being to remember Khalifa said this by the way, he says, now who gel with whom the gel will not know the gel. There are many we are men also, but he was talking about something different. You cannot compare yourself. You go to a nine to five job you have absolutely

no clue about your deen and you're going to compare yourself to younger Hanifa shame on you. You have absolutely no right to compare yourself to Imam Shafi, you have no right to compare yourself to Imam, Imam Malik and so forth. But today we find people like this today who are comparing themselves. And not only that, but today we have people who are coming in, you know, whether it's on social media, whether they are writing articles and so forth, and they're putting out all their research online. These are people who are going to the universities studying Islam from a secular perspective, studying Islam from a secular perspective, they've never studied. They've never studied

Islam from Allah ma. They have not said never studied or studied Islam and Islamic sciences from scholars because in our deen there is something called a sonnet. That's why I believe and Barack says LOL, isnaad, lapolla, Masha, Masha, if there is no sonnet in our deen than anyone can say whatever they want to say, and then our deen and our scholarship will become tainted, there'll be no more credibility to unto to our scholarship. And that's why you have a Senate. A man teaches one person, this person goes to the next person I studied from my share. I say from my chef i Till today, I have a Senate from my shack all the way to all the way to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa

sallam, I have that and this is how deen is disseminated from generation to generation to the next generation. But today what we have is people who are coming after Halal Quran. And not only are they just coming with their own opinions, they are challenging those who came before these people do not have a right to challenge these kinds of people. And not only that, but by going to a secular university and getting a master's in Middle Eastern Studies, for example, which is nothing wrong with that, but then they feel entitled to give fatwas they feel entitled to change the Quran. They feel entitled to change the Sunnah of the Prophet SAW Salem, they feel entitled to change

scholarship, something that has been a common something that has been a something that has been agreed upon for 1400 years. Now you have people who are going to universities getting a degree in gender studies and thinking that I can go and change the Quran and the Sunnah of Rasulullah sallallahu Wallah, he this is a travesty. This is what is destroying our Quran and Sunnah. And by the way, once again, if you as I said earlier, if you go back to the army in the generation of the past, the reason why they cannot stick to the Quran, or they cannot stick to their word of Allah is because it was tampered with today we have these kinds of people who are tampering with the Quran,

who are tampering with the Sunnah of the Prophet Selim, and who are tampering with scholarship. And I will tell you this, whenever anyone teaches you Islam, you need to know their Senate.

Today in America, I'll be honest with you today, we take knowledge from anyone, we take knowledge from anyone. And what we have to be very careful of is that the in and Islam and the oil has come through a Senate. And we have to study our knowledge from people who have a sonnet back to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, if every person who says you know what, this is the I've taken few intensives for you this and that. And now I have the right to say whatever I want to say no, you don't have a right to say whatever you want to say. So the most important thing number one is the very first step is that we must appreciate and respect scholarship, and we must respect the work and

the photographer's that will generate it and the time of the Sahaba the Allahu anhu, the tab you're on and the tablet tab you're on. The next thing that is very important for us to understand is that we take our fatwas and we go to those people who have studied and who have who are knowledgeable. Why? Because the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he tells us in a hadith, that there will come a time that Allah will take away your ailing from this dunya now, you know Subhanallah my teacher, he was sitting with us one time and he said that Islamic history today the amount of books that exist in our Islamic libraries. Islamic is

She has never seen this many Islamic books at one time. Is the amount of research that we have today is some a history has probably not seen this much research before. But why is it that is going away? Jehovah is overtaking our communities our societies, is because Allah subhanho wa Taala takes away their Allah MA And subhanAllah if you just observe the lives for the last five years, how many are all amounts worldwide? Have we lost? We have lost tons of Allah Subhana Allah and when you and you know a lot of times when we make these kinds of announcements that this such a such scholar passed away many times we just overlook it. Oh, who just another scholar, another email, another shake and

so forth. No, this is a devastation to the Ummah, as every single scholar leaves and we're not generating proper scholarship on the back end, then this is going to be difficult for our Ummah going forward. That is why the province of some is telling us that eventually there will come a time it the other NASA rules and jehlen they will take other people as leaders and they would treat them as religious leaders or as knowledgeable people, but in reality, they are giant and now in the province, some say jarhead he used a type of noun to express how genuine they are is in street language. We'll say supergiant extremely giant Joe hurlan. As a professor of law, Sam says he never

said Jay he says Joe.

And then he says for su e Lu, for after BYU their ailment they will give fatwas without any kind of knowledge for Balu What about who these people are misguided and they will misguide others. Brothers and sisters, today how many times I hear people well, this is my opinion about this matter. And subhanAllah you know what? For a person who has no knowledge of Deen to say, this is my opinion, you know, how many of us have come across? This is my opinion more than youth I've come across adults. You know what, you know, the Quran says this way, you know my opinion, I'm sorry, you don't have a right to an opinion. Because how can a person say I have an opinion when you haven't even given a

fraction of your life to understanding Quran and Sunnah of the province center, coming to a halacha coming to a heart right at the masjid is not knowledge. If you go back a long time ago how people acquire knowledge they will sit down with a share and they will dedicate years and years and not hours, years a years of their life. To learn from that one scholar. You go to Medina today you will see this after Salah to the US and after South Africa, South Asia you have students four or five students sitting around one share and learning from them. You go ask those students how long have you been learning from this one *, they will say that we have been learning for so many years.

Yet those same people don't ever say that this is my opinion. Those same people have knowledge they will say that there is a scholar who has this opinion and hence I tend to lean towards that opinion. Because that is the right way to phrase that. Today we are so many adults will my opinion Subhan Allah your opinion? I want to ask the one adult what time have you given to understand the Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So that is why brother and sisters we are facing this today. We are facing this gyla And people once again have believed that the criteria of scholarship will lie today this the time that we are living and how do you determine a person a

scholar or not? If he's on YouTube, if he's there and he's there on social media has his share? Wallah he I tell you when I went back six years ago to my to my madrasa to my to my seminary where you have where you have teachers Wallahi there Tukwila if I tell you about their TBWA your mind will boggle how much tequila they have in their life. I had a teacher, I had a teacher that he was teaching hadith of Abu Dawood. He was teaching Hadith, Buddha will from a Buddha would and he came across a hadith and he did not know the meaning of that hadith. And he said he went from book to book to book to book trying to find the explanation that hadith and eventually How did he come to

the explanation that hadith? Because Rasul Allah He SallAllahu Sallam appeared in his dream. This man was a man of Toccoa. This man was a man of Taqwa. The Prophet has sort of appeared in his dream, in my teacher's dream to explain to him what is the meaning of this hadith.

But these teachers, these kinds of great people who have to have knowledge, you will see that they're not on social media.

Because social media a lot of times takes you towards dunya. It eliminates the loss from your work. These kinds of people will allow you go to across the world, great scholars, people who are deep in their knowledge, they don't have social media accounts.

Yes, today we will think that they're not the scholars the only one. Our criteria of understanding scholarship is how many views you have online. That's the criteria of scholarship that we are living today. Brother, Sister, this is not knowledge and this is how we are going to lose our deen. You want to learn come to a heart come to halacha no problem. You truly want to learn Dean, go to a scholar sit down with a scholar and learn from them. And that is how you have that's how you learn Dean. Few more things that we need to do understand in order to protect our understanding of the Quran and Sunnah Prophet Salam. Number three is learn your deen acquire knowledge. Once again, as I

said it's not enough to come to a hotter and halacha go study with someone all the great orlimar they have dedicated years of their life Allah says in the Quran, Allah Allah yester when the DNA Allah Munna while living Allah, Allah moon, a person who knows in a person who does not know they're not the same. Number four. It is very important that when it comes to sticking to the Quran, and the Sunnah of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, which is the correct understanding something that we have learned from our scholarship of the past is that in order for us to stick to that we have to, we have to work on our own test gear, we have to acquire this gear and we have to work on a

heart on a daily basis. This gear to nurse is something that has been highlighted in the Quran has been highlighted the Sunnah of the Prophet Salaam. And you've heard many hombres about this too, but the most important thing is that we need to truly make a make a sincere effort on our Teskey on our heart on a daily basis. The last thing I just have to go through these things out quickly. There's a lot more than one to mention I have to run through them because of time. The last thing I will say is the importance of writers company Wallahi I tell you honestly, if you if we do not take care of our task here, we are not learning our deen and we're not in the company of the righteous people

will Allah who we will lose our deen and the amount of fitness that are coming. The amount of fitness today you look at these fitness that we are facing today will lie they're gonna get only worse. You look at this and you say well Allah He Well, you know how many times in this last few months the with the the excessive amount of fitness and how much is being pushed on people and so forth. How many times in the last few months? I've thought about this, that what's going to happen to our upcoming generations. How are they going to stick to Dean when I have to sit down in counseling and I counsel people in their issues and so forth, and seeing how far people are away

from being It boggles my mind. But once again, our dean has taught us this solution, right his company does get to knifes and learn your deen. This is something that we have learned the very first revelation that came from Allah subhanho wa Taala tourists wa salam to eliminate Johanna from the entire world was it Barack Bismillah beacon lady Hello, it was about the importance of knowledge. So these are few things that I want all of us to understand. The very first thing once again, was to appreciate the previous generations their scholarship. And I will say one more thing about that anyone who comes with an opinion that completely contradicts scholarship of the past,

that opinion requires heavy scrutiny. That opinion requires heavy scrutiny. Number two was the province some has warned us about people who are new who don't know about their Deen, but they will give it to us and they will teach other people. The third thing is we must learn our deen in order to protect our deen. Number four is test gear to knifes and number five is righteous company I ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to make us amongst those who can stick to the Quran. Stick to the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, I asked Allah subhanho wa Taala to keep our youth our upcoming generations on the deen and hop on and protect them from every kind of fitna that may

emerge in society. Amira, Bella Alameen BarakAllahu li Walakum Fuqua and all them want to find out what he can do with the Hakeem and stuff Lulu honey welcome. What he's saying was sunnah festival Fado in a hula photo
