Nadim Bashir – The Example Of The Dog – Surah Summaries #07 SurahAraf

			The next hoorah we on Monday, we talked about SOTL an iron. Today we're talking about sort of our
off. And Allah subhana wa Tada and sort of our off the primary theme of sort of our off is the
battle between Huck and battle. It is the battle between truth and falsehood. And this is why in the
very beginning of the Surah, when it comes to a battle between truth and falsehood, often people may
feel a little pressure, they're gonna feel that as if they want to comply with others. They want to
make sure that they, you know, make the message appealing to others. And a lot of times when you
start to muddle up, when you change the message, then the person in front of the audience, they
		

			don't get the right message. And that is why in the Quran, Allah subhana wa Tada has made it very
clear to the Prophet SAW Salem, that when it comes to speaking of the hug, you will not put you will
not make any changes to the hook, the hook has to be spoken at the highest at the highest. Meaning
that if you try to add in your few cents, to make it appealing to others, because you're more
worried about Will Will they like my message or not, then the right message will not be delivered.
And so that is why we find this little arrow of the battle between heart and button. And it is a
very first story between Huck Finn battle between Amara his Salam and shaytaan the Allah mentioned
		

			the surah Allah mentions the battle between Huck and Botha and the very last story that will happen
which is where in the Quran where Allah subhanho wa taala. He says that on the day of judgment that
people of Jannah will call out to the people of Jahannam, that people of Johanna will call out to
the people of Jana. Once again, the people who were on the hook will be in Jana, and the people of
Jana will ask these people that what happened to all these promises, you are given in this dunya you
are given so many promises, what happened to all these promises? And these people have Jahannam who
are in who are the followers of botlane. They will say that we were given promises, but all those
		

			promises turn out to be false. And then these people of Johanna will reach out to the people of
Jana, and they will say and a few do Elena Amina Alma II, Omarosa Kamala, that because of the idea
that we are suffering, can you please grant us anything from Jana, and feed to Elena at least give
us something from some water and so forth. And Allah subhanho wa Taala was a follow in Allah ha
Rama, Huma, I will caffeine Allah has made this haram upon those who are the disbelievers. So there
is a constant battle between Huck Finn Barton. And then after that, in the Surah, Allah takes the
stories Allah mentioned the stories of those who represented the hug, and they were talking to
		

			people who were representing the Belton. Allah mentioned the story of Noah either you said, Allah
mentioned the story of sure it gets Salam. Allah mentioned the story of who died, he said, Allah
mentioned the story of Saudi Arabia, Islam. And once again, from the beginning of the sutra, till
the very end of the surah we see the battle between heart and Boulton and then at the end of the
Surah, Allah talks about the purpose of mankind. And Allah mentions this very well known if the Euro
we have heard so many times, what is a Hadera book? I mean, buddy Adam, I mean the hoodie him the
reata, whom I shudder Humala and forcing him unless to be Rob become, when we all were gathered
		

			before we came into this dunya when all of our Rohan Arwa, we we were in Alamo Urwa at that time,
Allah subhanho wa taala. He asked every single rule that will come into this earth that will come
into this dunya unless to be robbed become a my not your Lord. And we all said Bala Shahidan. Yes,
you are. And you are the witness that we are stating the fact that you are our Rob, this is what's
mentioned at the end of the hour off. So we see that the beginning is the heart of the battle
between heart and battle. And then at the end, Allah talks about our true purpose of life. And that
is why also at the end of the Surah, Allah mentions that there are some people who don't understand
		

			their true purpose of life, and that is why they have ears but they don't listen to the truth. They
have a heart but they cannot understand the truth. They have eyes, but they cannot see the truth.
Allah then says Hola, Iike Kalyanaraman bloom argon. They are like animals. In fact, they are worse
than animals. Why? Because the animal in itself understands its purpose of life and it
		

			has a certain purpose of life whereas the human being does not understand their purpose of life.
Now, in all this there is a very beautiful passage and where Allah subhanho wa Taala he talks about
our state, the state of those who are given the Quran and how they rejected the Quran and then Allah
subhanho wa Taala gave them the example of that of a dog. Now what does Allah subhanho wa Taala say
in the very beginning, he says, what what can I look at unforseeable Yeah, it will allow him yours
your own. Allah subhanho wa Taala says that we have made clear everything, every idea, everything
that has come from Allah subhanho wa Taala it is crystal clear, there is no ambiguity there is no
		

			confusion. There are no complexities in the message of Allah subhanho wa Taala it is very clear, it
is very direct. Allah then says to Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam what Lou I lay him never a
levy, Tina, Tina, that recite on to them. The news the word NABBA. There's a difference between the
word number and the word Hubbard they both mean news but number is in reference to something that is
greater. I'm Maya Tessa alone. And I need another Isla alim. It's a greater news. So Allah subhanho
wa Taala is referring to what here the Quran, Allah Subhana Allah subhanaw taala is telling and also
was a while while he was saying Sallam recite the Quran to them. I attina funds Salah Herman have
		

			the word fun Salah ha means to shed from something to peel something off. So if you know just try to
take the example of a human being first of all, that this human being is such that it does not have
the Quran. It has a life. It lives his 24 hour life, but in order to improve the state of mankind,
going back to all the way the time of the Prophet SAW Salem, where mankind were living in a state of
chaos, they have no understanding of who their true creator is. They have no purpose of life. Allah
then grants them the Quran and because of the Quran, their life becomes more beautiful. There's a
sense of life there's a purpose of life, there is a focus in life and that is Allah subhanho wa
		

			Taala but Allah is telling us here they are some that the Prophet Allah you some is reciting the
idea to them. And instead of absorbing these ayat, Allah says fun Salah caminha, the word in Salah
ha as I said, it means to peel something off. Often it is referred to shedding something. When you
look at the snake for example, the snake sheds its skin. So three few times a year, the skin is
gone, but the skin is lying around, but the snake is somewhere else. Likewise Allah is saying that
we are shedding the Quran for many people, meaning that we have slipped out of the Quran. We are
living our life. We have a Muslim name, we may have a Muslim family we may do some basic things as
		

			Muslims do. But the Quran is not in our heart. We are not living our life with the Quran. We have
shed and we have gone clear of the Quran. Allah then says when a person has the Quran and they slip
out of the Quran mean the Quran is somewhere else in their life is somewhere else. Allah then says
for Akbar Allahu shaytaan, then shaytaan begins to follow them very, very carefully. The word Tabby
in the Arabic language means to follow something for Atiba at bat Amin's shaytaan is playing a more
careful role, and he's following a person 24/7 And as a result of shaytaan following him, what
happens for can Amina Laval when he's amongst those who have gone far from ALLAH SubhanA what to
		

			Allah, Allah then says, well, oh, Sheena, let off that I now will be here. If we wanted, we would
have elevated him, meaning the Quran could have taken them to a whole new place on earth couldn't
have taken them to could have taken their eemaan to a whole new place. But what did they do? Well,
Kidner who either have they begin to live on Earth, as if this this is the place where they will
live forever, what Dubba Hawa and they began to follow their desires as a result for Mr. Liu who
command saddle club. The example is like that of a dog. Now often when first of all the fact that
Allah subhanho wa Taala gave the reference of a dog in itself is very humiliating. See in the Quran,
		

			you will find that ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala gives many examples of animals and so forth, when he
talked about the ALMA Bani Israel II, who acquired a lot of knowledge but there was no action. Allah
gave them the reference
		

			have a mouth commercial. Hey Marie. Yeah, me too as far as they are like a bunch of donkeys that are
just carrying a lot of books meaning that if you put a lot of books on a donkey, it does not benefit
the donkey years and likewise these Alma bunnies, so if there were such, now Allah subhanho wa Taala
the fact that he's mentioning here I'll Cal is already humiliating in itself. But what is Allah
saying over here, in Doha Milla Ali, he yelled out that ruku yell has the state of the dog,
especially not just any dog, these are the straight dogs, a stray dog, if you look at a trained dog,
versus a stray dog, there's a difference. The train dog knows how to behave, and so forth. And they
		

			go through a training process, where as a stray dog, you see a lot of times they do whatever they
want to do. And a lot of times while they're walking, their tongues are going to be sticking out and
they're panting. Now, often when you when you just read and just learn about this, the dog is
usually you know, hits hanging its tongue, because of pressure. Sometimes you put something on the
dog, and your cat or the dog is carrying something, or is thirsty, or is overwhelmed or is tired, or
is thirsty is hangs out his tongue. Allah subhanaw taala sang about his dog in Tamil Alayhi. If you
put some burden on the dog, and it walks, of course is going to be sweating, of course, he's going
		

			to be out of breath. So the tongue is hanging out OTA to ruku yell has or even if you don't put
anything on that dog, that dog is still going to be hanging in, I mean, his tongue is going to be
hanging out and is going to be panting. Likewise, Allah subhanho wa Taala saying in the state of
this dog, no matter whether you put something on it or you don't put something on it, the reaction
of the dog is still the same. Likewise, there are people that even with the Quran or without the
Quran, they are still the same. The Quran has absolutely no impact in their life. Islam has no
impact on their life. And then Allah says that Iike methylone poem in Medina cos there will be Tina.
		

			This is the example of those who rejected the message of Allah subhanho wa Taala focus who say Casa
La Lomita for Quran that explain or tell the stories to your people, so that they may be able to
reflect on the stories and the lessons of the stories. The point is brothers sisters, Allah subhanho
wa Taala gave us Ramadan, so we can connect with the Quran. The focus and the test is not a Mullah
in itself is easy to read the Quran in Ramadan is easy to come and finish the entire Khartoum Quran
in the month of Ramadan is easy to apply the Quran to a certain degree in our life. The test is not
now brothers and sisters, the test is after Ramadan. This is why we are giving them a Vaughn to make
		

			that change in our life. We have the Quran, many people they say I have all these challenges. We
look at the Muslim state and so forth or the affairs of the Islamic world and so forth. Why are we
in this position and so forth? Well, Allah He the reason why we are in this position is because we
neglected the Quran Simple as that. We come up with all these different excuses and so forth, and
they're valid to a certain degree. I'm not completely negating them. But the ultimate reason why we
are our own ma today is in the state is because Allah gave us the Quran. But what do we do fun Salah
ha minha we slipped out of the Quran, we shed the Quran, and we live we are living alive one life
		

			and the Quran is telling us to live another life. So this is where we need to bring that change into
our life. I ask Allah subhanho wa Taala that he makes us from amongst those who read the Quran but
then we applied the Quran in our life miserable I mean, what is our common law hi salaam Allegra
