mini rajshahi sorry sad Omri wahoo. La Plata Mila Sania Coco de Alhamdulillah wa salatu salam ala
rasulillah Allah Allah He was a PHP so mama bad once again everybody is salaam aleikum wa
rahmatullah wa barakato. If you, if you pay attention to this ayah, we're at number 93. If you
notice, from the beginning, the conversation was in the second person, when we took the covenant
from you the mythique, from you, we raised the mountain of door above you hold on to what we have
given all of you with great strength, then immediately and listen, which is all you you and you,
then all of a sudden, instead of saying you said, it says they said, right, so we went from the
00:01:14 -->
00:01:54
second person to the third person, this idea is important to understand the Arabic term for it is
varied, distancing. And in Simple English, you can say that when you're saying something in the
second person I'm talking to you, that suggests logically that you're close to me, that I'm engaged
in conversation with you. But if I'm talking about them, are they then they are far from me. So how
come it happens in the course of a single sentence that I was talking to you? And I started talking
about you instead of talking to you, I want you to imagine that there are two audiences one audience
is the Israelites don't be offended Israelites. And another audience is the Prophet.
00:01:55 -->
00:02:15
Allah azza wa jal speaks, he addresses the Israelites. And he gets so upset with them, that he turns
away from them, and addresses the prophet and say, you know what they said, they said, Samaritan Law
Center, you see this trend, this transition is common in our communication. In our communication,
I'm yelling at one child at home.
00:02:16 -->
00:02:21
I'm giving them a good one. And then the other one walks in, you better not do what she did.
00:02:22 -->
00:02:36
She's right there. But I didn't talk to her as you I talked to her as what she I just immediately in
a second turned her into a sheet. Okay, why sorry, you're not you're not totally a heat. I'm just
saying as an example, I was thinking of hostile. Okay, so.
00:02:38 -->
00:03:20
So, so the idea being this, why this transition happens when you're so upset with someone you don't
even want to talk to them anymore. Like Allah is so angry at what happened next is that he doesn't
even address them. He talks of them, he switches over to the third person and says, kalu Samir, our
assignor They said, We we heard and disobeyed. Now, some of them are grappled with the subject is
how could they in the face of God just say, we disobey and not get crushed? You know. So then others
have said, this is basically lisanna, meaning they must have not said it, but fought it, or not
really mented when they said they obey.
00:03:21 -->
00:03:38
So, in other words, you say one thing, but you really don't mean it. And so Allah is now translating
what they really meant. This is a pretty interesting note about the Hassan's own commentary. The
Quran doesn't necessarily quote what people say, but actually quotes what they really mean to say.
00:03:39 -->
00:03:43
So lucky, doesn't have to translate the tongue, he can translate the heart to
00:03:44 -->
00:04:18
hear the knower of the inside, you know, that's the power of Quran is when you say when you think of
the Quran, like Pharaoh and said this and Allah translated because Pharaoh didn't speak Arabic, even
though he's Egyptian is not that Egyptian is the old Egyptian, they don't have Arabic back then. So
Allah is translating what he said into Arabic, or was not alleged translating what the police said
into Arabic. They didn't have those conversations in Arabic necessarily, but allows translating
them. But when a lot of translates, he doesn't just translate words, he translates reality. And
reality is made up of what is on the tongue, but sometimes also what is inside the heart. So let's
00:04:18 -->
00:04:37
actually come here commenting on what really you meant when you said, we heard and we hear and we
obey. And this is actually really interesting, in the Hebrew language. In the Hebrew Bible, in
Deuteronomy, this is 524 of Deuteronomy. The Hebrew of when they spoke to God and said we hear and
we obey is as follows
00:04:38 -->
00:04:44
virtuemart new VA Seenu virtuemart Nova Scotia motto is close to semolina.
00:04:45 -->
00:05:00
And I'll see who is close to what I say no, except in Hebrew, I'll say no actually means we obey.
And aside Arabic means we disobey and it's amazing that Allah actually uses the verb in
00:05:00 -->
00:05:03
Arabic That is the closest to the original Hebrew Bible,
00:05:04 -->
00:05:47
but means the opposite to teach. It's a play on words to say, you actually said you obey but what
you meant all along was you disobey. So it actually resonated the words of the original Bible, and
yet at the same time communicated the reality that was before them that they didn't really mean to
obey. So hon Allah like, so. So from from a senior in their language, there are Cena here we learned
some Quranic insight into a common phrase or a very powerful phrase of the Quran, a crime of the
Israelites, I think all of you know this, at least even if you have a Sunday school version of
Islam, you know, this. They used to change their book. They edited they altered their book,
00:05:47 -->
00:06:15
everybody here knows that. Yeah, the Quran describes it, as you heard the food and Kelly ma D, they
change the words from their original place. That's the literal phrasing of the Quran. They alter the
words they change the words from their original place mouth, from their places. Now we're learning
something deeper about that. Changing the words from the original place does not just mean you
change the spelling. Like the Torah used to say that they the slaughter happened at bucha they
change it to soccer,
00:06:16 -->
00:06:20
or they went to Ottawa changes to Moodle. Not just that.
00:06:21 -->
00:06:31
But sometimes you say a word but you mean something else. So you didn't change the word or its
spelling, but your intention behind the word is corrupt.
00:06:32 -->
00:06:51
You said obey but you meant this obey. Okay? And this is something that's part of the larger passage
here, because they're gonna keep saying we believe we believe we believe. And what Allah keeps
saying is when you're saying you believe Let me tell you what you're really saying that you
disbelieve.
00:06:52 -->
00:07:28
You Henry foon and kelim and Mojave they move the word from its place. When they say we are We
totally believe in what I mean. We have taught already we have the Hebrew Bible, we don't need the
Quran. We already have it. Thanks. Allah says really you have it? Is that how you believe in your
book? Is this what you do? Because you believe in your book? That's what you call this believing
actually I don't think that's called believing. So they use the word belief we're actually the word
rightful is what this believes this is also your holiday food and kingdom and Malawi move we're
moving away from its intended place, its proper place. So you if you listen to that, I mean
00:07:28 -->
00:07:44
alladhina hadou among the Jewish people not all Jews are among the Jewish people you have the
funeral calima and nobody they move the word from its original intended place where una semana de la
cena and they say we here and we disobey what's my Aveda mazmanian Orangina What are in and they
say, listen,
00:07:45 -->
00:08:27
and then they say I hope you have no ability to be heard. You know, and then what our inner and they
say quote, you know, which is supposed to be pay close attention to us and give us consideration but
they say they twist the word of it to make it sound like our our servant, or our lowest one in our
aina Liam vlcfa him by twisting their tongue tongue watan and 15 and by being sarcastic in religion,
and that's the second one. Now the first one changing the Spelling's and changing the pronunciation
the NBL Sina team. The second one I said, they say one thing they mean another plan in 15. That's
battalion 50. Well, I wonder home colusa marijuana and if they were clear, and they said, Samir
00:08:27 -->
00:09:00
Nirvana we hear and we actually obey what smart one voted on and listen and please give us
consideration like I know highlanda homework one, that would have been far better for them and a
more upright thing to do say what you mean saved properly said clearly, when I can learn at home
will have equal freedom. However, Allah curse them, because of their disbelief. Allow me noona illa
kalila, then except a few, no, they're not going to be believing. They're not going to have faith.
And Kalyan could somehow argue here could also be a qualitative thing. They're not going to believe
except a little. So not just a few will believe but only even if they do believe it's going to be
00:09:00 -->
00:09:38
very, very small amount of faith. So now they've basically before God, this defied him even though
they said we obey they don't really mean it. Before I go on with the I need to extrapolate a lesson
for ourselves. When we say about anything that Allah has revealed, we don't have direct conversation
with Allah. Allah is not holding a mountain above our heads and saying hold on to Quran he's not
doing that with us. But the word of a lie is still relevant and it's still it's more powerful and
heavier than any mountain because the word of Allah when it falls on a mountain if the Quran was
revealed on a mountain lot Idaho Hashimoto sub the admin Harsha de la you see it explode. You see,
00:09:38 -->
00:09:59
you know, what they say in Old English cleft asunder with the fear of God like cleft asunder? What
is cleft, I've never heard cleft ascender anywhere in life. If you played basketball and said, Your
that shot left me cleft asunder, like, I don't know what that means. In a blow up, man, the
mountains just blow up because it can't handle it. It'll be humbled
00:10:00 -->
00:10:27
It'll be, it'll be humbled and then it will just it couldn't take it anymore out of the fear of
Allah. So in other words, they were given the the all of the Word of God by a mountain hovering
above them. We're told no mountain can even capture the Word of God. It's even far above that. And
that word of a lie lives with us. It's with us. It's in our possession. So when we hear the word of
Allah, and we say, Okay, yeah, yeah, I'm listening, but you're not really listening, then you're
committing this crime.
00:10:29 -->
00:10:50
You see what I'm saying? Like they did that in in defiance of the word of Allah, we have the direct
word of Allah before, we have to be very careful that we, and it's not necessarily that you came out
with your tongue and said, I disobeyed the Koran or disobey the Quran. I just believe in the Word of
Allah. No, no, no. But you didn't mean it. When you said fine, I'll listen. Allah says this. Yeah, I
know, I got it, I got it.
00:10:51 -->
00:11:32
And you don't really want to listen to it. That Listen, I'll have that state that's inside of you,
that the tongue of your heart, the language of your heart, that better be in line. And if that's not
the case, what does Allah do? What should he woofie pulumi himolla Angela buccafurri him very
difficult phrase to translate. They were made literally sounds like they were made to drink into
their hearts. The love of the calf literally feeds the calf. They were made to drink the calf into
their hearts, which sounds like strange English. So we have to break this phrase up a little bit.
Let's deal with oshi boo first, a Shabbat Shabbat in Arabic to drink a Shabbat to make someone
00:11:32 -->
00:12:17
drink. But actually, they don't use a Shabbat they use Sokka. To give someone drink on Shabbat, like
even Ashura argues is actually figurative. Like, man, I am drunk. I am drunk in love with something.
Or he was over, you know, he was, it's used for dying, all sorts soaking, he's soaked in anger. He's
soaked in anger. And the idea of the passive, to take it to be taken in by something like they were
made to drink, or they were drunk. They were made drunk with something suggests that they were
overwhelmed by something obsessed with something taken over by something. You know how, for example,
the language of love you say, I am in love, or he has fallen in love. Or he is infatuated.
00:12:18 -->
00:13:03
Right? Something he's a he's not a doer. He's a done to, like when you say I love someone, it's
decent language. When you say I am in love with someone, it's far stronger. Because it's it's being
you're not doing it. It's being done to you, in a sense, right? You're like a victim of love, in a
sense, am I I'm struck with love things, things like that. Now, the idea of actually boo is they
were made. What that boils down to is they were made to drink means they were made drunk with it.
They were infatuated, obsessed, mindlessly, like taken over mindlessly indulged in this Caf
business. And then if that wasn't enough that they were made drunk with it. And that's why I showed
00:13:03 -->
00:13:34
up alone, cuz they started mantener images even added to him. arado muhammara Tobin were born in
Brooklyn. And yesterday, Uber Shut up. The one they used to use figurative language for love or
hate, they would use the word shut up old Arabic. So they were made to fall in love with this calf
idea, even though it's so stupid. It's so ridiculous. What would this statue of a baby cow do? Why
would you do this? It doesn't make any sense. What we are learning now is when people openly defy
Allah,
00:13:35 -->
00:13:46
they defy the revelation that Allah has given them, then Allah opens allows them to become extremely
stupid in the kinds of things they follow. You can't make any sense of it.
00:13:47 -->
00:14:20
You will find people who believe in Revelation, who don't take revelation seriously. And you will
notice that they will fall into rituals that don't make any sense. They'll fall into occult
practices that don't make any sense. Just like the Israelites fell into the worship of what the calf
even though Torah is there, makes complete sense that they shouldn't be doing this. But they'll fall
into it and they won't and they'll be obsessed with it. You can even reason with them. You talk to
them about this, they will get angry at you what happens in the Muslim world when it comes to this
stuff. There are people that get into cultish behavior.
00:14:21 -->
00:14:44
They get into amulets and grave sites and god knows what else, you know, that of his business is a
pretty flourishing industry. You know, and you try questioning it, buddy. You see what happens to
you? Oh, you you're gonna you're gonna get killed. You can't question that stuff. You know, at least
tell me where you got it from.
00:14:47 -->
00:14:49
You know, Bobby, oh, yeah.
00:14:53 -->
00:14:57
You know, the craze the craze with which people will follow this stuff.
00:14:58 -->
00:14:59
I'm not saying
00:15:00 -->
00:15:40
It's right or wrong. I'm just saying there's not even room to question it. There's not even room for
a reasonable conversation because it becomes a cult. And so like, it wasn't like musasa would come
and say, give me evidence for this calf. Where did it come from? Give me a logical explanation of
this elaborate theology or mythology. They don't need any of that. They're drunk with it now. But
how can someone get drunk this getting drunk with unreasonable love Allah describes as a punishment
of defying revelation, severe and over assigner results in this. So when you see the Muslim world
drowned in this kind of cultish behavior, you say, Where did this come from? We should criticize it,
00:15:40 -->
00:16:02
we should give evidence against it, we should say this is shared. And this is benign. This is this
is you're not even attacking the root of the problem. The root of the problem was submitted Noah, as
I look at Cora, and look at what a liasing where this problem came from, bring people back to the
word of a line, this will disappear. If you keep going after this. It's like going after something
like trying to reason with someone who's drunk.
00:16:04 -->
00:16:44
And you're gonna yell at them and tell them this is wrong, this is wrong and they'll be like,
they'll get even more angry at you because they're drunk. Well, she will be human. And that's why
equilibrium is important, deep into their hearts into the ocean even would have been enough. They
were made to drink but feel connubial into their hearts. It says though, like Allah describes their
infatuation, and then goes deep into their souls and describes it and I personally hold that this is
actually an anchor in the in the passage, and in the discussion on the Israelites, the heart keeps
coming up. So Mark kosaku, coming ballindalloch right fuku be him marohn fissara Houma la mirada
00:16:44 -->
00:16:58
their hearts have a problem. And that's when Allah says Why don't you understand? When Allah talks
about understanding understanding is a problem of the mind and the heart is a problem of
spirituality. How are these two connected when the hardest corrupt your mind stops working?
00:16:59 -->
00:17:37
When the heart is corrupt? You can't be reasoned with no deal no evidence, no truth. No reason makes
any sense. This is a problem of the heart to begin with. So for OCD, boo, boo boo Hey, Mona Angela.
buccafurri him. Then there's a literal reading of this. I want to read something to you from Exodus.
This is 3220 of Exodus. He Moses. Yeah, this is when Moses comes back from the mountain. They've
been worshipping the calf and you know, now they're going to destroy the calf. He Moses took the
calf that they had made burned it with fire. They burned the calf with fire. Now wait a second
before I read any more. This is Exodus right? I'll read something from slotta law. No, no, we will
00:17:37 -->
00:18:05
absolutely set it on fire. Moses says in Quran we will set it on fire. Now this is mimicking what's
already set in. Exodus is Kryon confirming Taurus. Okay. Then he says grounded and he burned it with
fire grounded to powder and scattered it on the water. So they crushed it and scattered the the
remains of the calf on the water for answers to malignancy for now hopefully Philomena spa, then we
will crush it and spread it on the water.
00:18:06 -->
00:18:21
So now the exodus account 3220 is almost identical to what we find in silica except the the Bible
has one more detail that the Quran doesn't mention. Or I mentioned the differently. What's that
detail? He says and he made the Israelites drink it.
00:18:23 -->
00:18:39
The Bible says he made the Israelites drink it. What does the Quran say? Quran says Allah made them
drink the love of the calf into their hearts. When you drink you drink into your belly. Unless
that's actually the reality of it was they got drunk with the love of it in their hearts.
00:18:41 -->
00:18:55
It's a it's a he takes that literal image and he makes it figurative in the Quran. And he says they
were they were they were drunk with it. Now I want to help you also understand a literary play on
words here. That's I think I think it's significant. It's the word agent.
00:18:56 -->
00:18:58
Agent. Agile is
00:18:59 -->
00:19:05
a calf, but it comes from the Arabic word, Agila to rush.
00:19:06 -->
00:19:16
And this word in the Quran occurs in very interesting ways. From it you get the word Allah Allah
caliber, buena. Allah Allah Jalla wa Luna
00:19:17 -->
00:19:53
and Angela means that which comes immediately meaning worldly life. Arjuna from the same origin as
the calf interestingly means worldly life. So it's almost as though the love of the calf is similar
to the world the love of what worldly life. When you stop following the religion of Allah as
revealed and you start following some cultish thing, you will notice one common commonality, all
cultish practices, when people pray or or do rituals through cultish practices, what is their goal?
Is their goal something in the asset or something in the dunya?
00:19:55 -->
00:19:59
Every time in dunya somebody in this world somebody will do a cultic
00:20:00 -->
00:20:08
thing, wrap something around their arm or do a Ws or set something on fire and wave it around
because they want to have a son
00:20:09 -->
00:20:21
or they want the hair back or they want a motorcycle or what every time they do these cultish
practices, what does it have to do with the next world or this world? This world and Arjuna
00:20:22 -->
00:20:59
the agent actually the practices of the agent there have nothing to do with your aka they only have
to do with your Agila your your your immediate life. So there's this this, this you know Adam
illogical connection. That's also a philosophical connection between these two things. Now, this
word itself, interestingly enough, well my Angelica and comida Moosa Kala Allah Allah azza wa jal to
la cara de agile to Angelica, what rushed you to me Moosa? What rushed you to to come because masala
Salaam was supposed to go meet Allah. But he showed up 10 days early.
00:21:00 -->
00:21:09
He showed up early and also why did you rush here? What rushed you and he says they're okay. They're
gonna do what I told them. I rushed you because I really wanted you to be happy.
00:21:10 -->
00:21:34
The word agile is used also rushing. And there's a direct contrast here you have a messenger and a
Salaam who rushes to please Allah. And there you have those who rushed to the worship of a calf.
Why? Because they rushed to things that they can get in this world. They think their worldly needs
will be met by this this cultish behavior, so hon Allah. So now, what was the movie Blue Beam on the
edge of worldly life was beautified to them.
00:21:35 -->
00:22:07
But and this is actually a pretty good diagnosis of people that fall into those kinds of things.
They're not interested in the camera, they're interested in this world. If you if you look at their
dogs that are going to get answered, we have people, for example, all over the world that follow
pseudo saints that charge a fee for dollars. It's a pretty good business, it's it was pretty good.
You can go to them, and they'll they'll get your door answered for whatever, right my, my daughter
can't get married, she's getting past the expiration date of 26.
00:22:08 -->
00:22:17
You need to, you know, make the dial for her. And you have to give them some money. Notice also in
all of these things, all of these laws are for what
00:22:18 -->
00:22:39
donia again, there's only again, you know, so this is a pretty powerful and kind of painfully
accurate diagnosis from Allah, of people who abandon revelation and come up with twisted versions of
religion for themselves, be cofely him and Allah says, Why did all of this happen? Because of their
Cofer now the suburb is being given.
00:22:40 -->
00:22:44
worshipping a calf instead of Allah is that called Cofer is that called shake tell me?
00:22:45 -->
00:23:12
It's called check. How come Allah doesn't say, he made them love the calf in their hearts or the
love of the capital is infatuated made infatuated to them in their hearts because of their shark?
Here he says no, not because of their shape, but because of their COVID ship would have been too
obvious. Everybody knows we're shipping the golf shirt. But we don't realize is it's COVID. What's
the difference between gopher and shark? Shark is a crime against Allah.
00:23:13 -->
00:23:17
Cofer overwhelmingly in the Quran is a crime against revelation.
00:23:19 -->
00:23:21
crime against the lies What
00:23:22 -->
00:23:23
crime against revelation is what?
00:23:25 -->
00:23:59
Allah reveals something, you deny it, you do something else that's why do you and revelation
includes the messenger, denial of the messenger as cofrin denial of revelation discovered, denial of
a less favorites and schofer that allow himself when you do come up crime against a law you reduce a
law you partner with a law you do these these things, that's schicke. Allah saying here, the root
cause was actually Cofer of what Musa had given them. buccafurri him will be semi Morricone de
Monaco in control, meaning, what a conclusion, what a terrible thing your man tells you to do.
00:24:01 -->
00:24:41
What a terrible thing your faith commands you to do that you worship the cap, this was your email.
Now, what kind of conclusion is this? I want you to appreciate the remarkable coherence, the logical
flow of the IRS that we've been looking at. So you'll appreciate this conclusion. We started with
either kilala home Amina Bhima and de la la when it's when they're told, believe in what Allah sent
down they said no thanks. We believe in what we already have. Their claim was what? No mineral we
believe. You're coming all the way at the end. Be samaya Murakami. He Mr. Newcomb, how terrible this
amount of years that you say you have this faith of yours that you have pretty horrible stuff it
00:24:41 -->
00:24:55
makes you do because they started with the claim that No thanks. We don't need to believe we already
believe. Now. When Allah criticized their belief, what did he do? He took it in stages. He says
really you believe? Why do you kill profits then?
00:24:56 -->
00:25:00
That was number one. Okay, you know what? Forget about profits.
00:25:00 -->
00:25:02
Why did you mess with musala? Islam?
00:25:03 -->
00:25:22
Forget Musa alayhis salam you even were you were ready to worship one calf okay you know what forget
even about the calf you didn't spare profits You didn't even spare Moosa you were even willing to do
obvious shit. Okay? No that's not bad enough. Maybe you straighten out when you met with a lot
directly
00:25:23 -->
00:25:26
when you met with a letter actually and he told you to hold on to the book What did you do?
00:25:27 -->
00:25:43
So we're in our house we listen we disobey okay so you couldn't consider the product you killed
profits. You didn't spare Moosa you worship to camp and even when you came in direct contact with
Allah you didn't even spear allow his origin and your defiance. You said we here we disobey You
didn't even mean it. Then
00:25:45 -->
00:25:47
what an amazing Eman You said you have human right.
00:25:49 -->
00:25:51
be somebody who can be human.
00:25:52 -->
00:25:55
If this was a Pakistani with Mashallah Imani aka the camera.
00:25:57 -->
00:26:05
Look at this image of yours. What is it? What amazing thing that makes you do this faith of yours.
It's it's compelled you to do some pretty awesome stuff. Way to go faith.
00:26:07 -->
00:26:11
Because this is a lost way of saying what you're calling faith is actually what
00:26:13 -->
00:26:33
disbelief it's Cofer. You heard the funeral Kelly marmolada. He you're calling the demon. The
reality of it is the exact opposite. gopher disbelief. You're calling it faith. It is the opposite
of faith. So a lot actually puts it back in place. Now the interesting side inside this is part of
this the nuance of the Quran.
00:26:35 -->
00:26:43
He calls it a monochrome, your Eman. He doesn't say lie man. Faith. He said your faith meaning the
thing you call faith
00:26:45 -->
00:27:12
what you have imagined to be faith it's pretty horrible. Because it gets you to do all this stuff.
The other interesting nuance here is a man is telling you to do things yet Murakami hE hE monokuma
Alfa Louis man the door here Mr. New his or her dream students are happy again because of their two
week education. It's sort of fair because it's got a with the end ending sound as well. Ah,
holidays. So it's the Dewar. So it's the door of what Yeah, motoko it command your faith commands
you.
00:27:14 -->
00:27:30
Faith can command you. Yep, this thing inside you is a force that tells you what to do. He man is
not just a set of ideas. It's a powerful entity that lives inside you that tells you what to do. For
example, in the Quran, the only other thing you find that tells you what to do.
00:27:31 -->
00:27:37
You know, an abstract thing that tells you what to do is prayer. In the salata, tenha and in fact,
00:27:39 -->
00:27:41
the prayer stops you from wrongdoing.
00:27:43 -->
00:28:06
The prayer comes to life and stops you from long wrongdoing. Then he says a Salatu kata Muruga
people said, Does your prayer command you. The disbelievers said your prayer command you Now in this
ayah what's commanding someone their faith is but in other places what commands you. Prayer commands
you. What's really remarkable is later on in the surah. We're going to learn about when the Qibla
changed
00:28:07 -->
00:28:41
because the Muslims used to pray towards Jerusalem and then they were commanded to pray towards
Mecca. And then we're told Why did that change happen? When that change happened? Some people said
listen to this carefully now some people said all those prayers, you were praying towards Jerusalem,
you guys had the wrong GPS address. They didn't even count. Those prayers didn't count. And a lot of
people got Muslim got worried. But really, those prayers didn't count because we were praying
towards Jerusalem and we were supposed to be praying towards Mecca. Allah says, Well makanda la
julio de Monaco, Allah will not waste your prayers, except instead of saying Allah will not waste
00:28:41 -->
00:28:44
your prayers, unless Allah will not waste your faith.
00:28:46 -->
00:29:27
Pretty cool. So for Allah, the word prayer and the word faith are what? interchangeable, they're
interchangeable. And what happens the only two entities that can command you to do something in the
coroner either a man or what salah and they're also used interchangeably in the Quran as part of the
just the subtle nuance inside the Quran. Now this this sarcasm What a horrible thing your Eman tells
you to do if in fact you are believers, this is this something only about the historical Jews, those
who came way back then you know at a time when they worship the calf and all of that, by the way,
but by the time the ends, yeah, Murakami, it commands you to do meaning you're still doing exactly
00:29:27 -->
00:29:38
what your ancestors did. You haven't changed your ways. If you've been believers all along
historically and even you people in front of me, you're not you haven't changed much, much from
them.
00:29:39 -->
00:29:42
By this time, by the time this passage comes to a close,
00:29:43 -->
00:29:45
we are left with certain conclusions.
00:29:46 -->
00:29:59
They can't claim that they have Emma and at all. Because Allah just rip that to shreds. Like he just
oh man. Really? Let's do it. Let's take your mind. And then he took it to town. There's no army
00:30:00 -->
00:30:08
Human for human left, big semi modal can be monochrome in quantum. If, in fact you do have in mind,
it's a pretty horrible human.
00:30:09 -->
00:30:43
Now, we deal with just two more IOD that have to do with their assumptions about the next life. They
weren't actually too worried about the next life. They're the chosen people of God, if they're
chosen here, they'll be chosen. They're the few factions of the Jewish people that had some belief
in the afterlife. For the vast majority of them. They've even they're ambiguous about it anyway. But
the few that did have it, they just thought that God is favored us in this world, the favor will
only enhancing the next world. And what's going to happen is either there aren't aren't going to be
any Gentiles. And if there are, they're going to serve us.
00:30:45 -->
00:31:08
That's Gentiles meaning non Jews. olan, Canada como de la sala to Angela Holly SATA men do not tell
them. If in fact, the last home the final home is exclusively for you, as opposed to all people
reserved with a law a guaranteed by a law that this is only for you, and has no place for anybody
else.
00:31:09 -->
00:31:46
For terminal modes, and we'll see that I'll explain that separately, then wish for death, which is
not the best translation, but I'm giving it to you now then wish for death in quantum saga clean if
in fact, you're truthful. I want to first talk to you about this idea of them wanting them believing
that the last home is for them, and nobody else. There's a it's interesting that Allah didn't just
say heaven here or paradise here. Maybe because their views on this were diverse in the look left
room for all of their views of the afterlife by seeing the next home, the final home and not
spelling it out. But I also found something in the Bible that's interesting. It's been interpreted
00:31:46 -->
00:32:04
differently by Bible scholars, but I feel that it resonates with this, I'll share it with you. This
is again words of Jesus, he says woe to you teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites. You
shut the door of the kingdom of heaven in people's faces. You yourselves do not enter nor will you
let those enter who are trying to.
00:32:05 -->
00:32:11
In other words, we're the only ones that are going to make it and Jesus basically saying you ain't
going either.
00:32:12 -->
00:32:21
You ain't going either. And you're you're just telling people all around you that you're not good
enough to go on agenda. We're learning something that we may be able to draw a universal from.
00:32:22 -->
00:32:29
corruption in religious scholarship leads to an exclusivist attitude. I shall repeat that long
English sad sentence.
00:32:30 -->
00:32:56
corruption in religious scholarship leads to an exclusivist attitude. In other words, the select few
are worthy of heaven, everybody else's corrupt and probably condemned to *. If people are a
certain standard of righteousness and religiosity, in their were in their dress in their circles and
their knowledge, then they have hopes of being saved everybody else's food for * anyway.
00:32:58 -->
00:33:01
And this only this circle is special in gifted by God.
00:33:02 -->
00:33:30
It's interesting that people that become more religious are supposed to become more humble. But this
is actually the height of arrogance, to think that you're the only one saved and everybody else's
damned are condemned to walk into a machine with the like the most spiritual clothing possible,
almost as though you floated onto the masala floor. And somebody like me is dressed like the kafar
walks in and starts praying. And you see his Salah, why does he even bother?
00:33:32 -->
00:33:36
That's not going to count anyway, this is probably counting as a sin against him.
00:33:37 -->
00:33:39
He's not even wearing a topi and he's talking about,
00:33:40 -->
00:33:58
you know, this, you already got your mind made up, that there's a there's a certain qualification,
there's a certain uniform, and there's a certain, you know, application of the religion that you've,
you've seen to seem to understand is the only application of the deen and without it, there's no
room for you in general.
00:33:59 -->
00:34:14
And you preach this message, you preach this lofty, high, unless you become like this. You can't and
by the way, this has become a problem in the oma in that you have a huge number of people who
believe that the only way to be a good Muslim is to look like someone who lived 1000 years ago.
00:34:16 -->
00:34:17
Because otherwise you can't be a good Muslim.
00:34:19 -->
00:34:21
And you have to act like you live 1000 years ago.
00:34:24 -->
00:34:35
You can't talk like it. You can't talk like it's 2016 you can't walk like a 2016 you can't dress
like a 2016 you have to like you have to be be and talk ancient,
00:34:36 -->
00:34:37
you know, in all things.
00:34:38 -->
00:34:40
And anything new is bad. It's evil, it's corrupt.
00:34:42 -->
00:34:56
And when that happens, there are some people who try it. They try to cut themselves off become part
of a bubble and try to live that. And then they run into a brick wall and then they say this
religion is not for me, man, this is too crazy. I can't do it. I just I can't pretend that it's not
2016
00:34:58 -->
00:35:00
I'm not saying that. You leave the teaching.
00:35:00 -->
00:35:08
Our Dean, but then I'm talking about corruption. Remember, it's our corruption and scholarship that
makes it seem like unless things are ancient, they're not authentic.
00:35:09 -->
00:35:33
Unless Unless you shun certain things that Allah never made a shun. You're not religious, burdening
people with what they didn't have to be burdened with. Fundamental and so Holly SATA, mendonca NASS,
no this is this next life is going to be pure for you with no other people's involvement, then
fundamental modes. This is a bit challenging wish for death.
00:35:35 -->
00:36:10
Does this mean that Islam wants us to wish for death because the law challenge them that they should
wish for death? And then the next idea he said, they'll never wish for it? They'll never wish for
it. Which means maybe we should. That's not true. We're not supposed to wish for death. Rasulullah
sallallahu wasallam says, and I'll give you a few ahaadeeth Colorado Rasul Allah unisee. Hi, Amanda
says and says you also love who among the people is the best. Who's the best of all people. Man,
Paula O'Meara, who was phenomenal who had whoever has a long life and does good things throughout
his long life.
00:36:11 -->
00:36:48
Should you wish for death? No. Well, you know C sharp and whoever the people is the worst color man
tala or Muhammad whoever has a long life and does bad stuff their whole long life. All the guys
still doing since man at least do is the five year old guy now. Now even then, you're at it. evil
evil things are optimistic. Then he says laietana had akumal mode. Let Amanda mode not one of you
should ever wish for death when it will be human complete and yet to and you shouldn't call for it
before it's time. before it comes itself. It's coming. Don't worry. You don't have to invite it.
00:36:50 -->
00:37:00
In no matter how to come in Qatar, Ahmed, why not? Why shouldn't you wish for death? Oh, I'm gonna
go to Jenga meet Allah. I should go. Stupid. How do you know you've done enough good deeds?
00:37:01 -->
00:37:11
How do you know that everything you've done is enough for you to get into general I am ready to dine
out. Good. I just came out of a lecture. Clearly my sins are forgiven. So I'm ready to go.
00:37:12 -->
00:37:13
Take me away.
00:37:14 -->
00:37:33
beat me up. Nah, no, no. That's self righteous, isn't it? That's like you would have to imagine that
you've done enough good deeds in Europe. You've a guarantee from Allah that you've you're saved as
Muslims catalyst for death. We can because wish for death means you've done enough you're ready.
00:37:34 -->
00:37:58
We will never say that we're ready. And socialism says and in the who either Nata had to come in
Katayama. That's because when one of you dies, your deeds are discontinued. We're in the Himalayas,
mina amaru illa hiren and the end the lifespan of a believer should not exceed increase him
accepting more good deeds. Ask live a life and do more good deeds.
00:37:59 -->
00:38:21
And then in Buhari laietana hola como note a mama Sinan further Allah who has died when Mama, Mama z
and Fernanda who has started off what beautiful Hadith. Not one of you should wish for death.
Because either they're a good person, and they'll get more good deeds, they have a chance to earn
more, or they're a bad person. And maybe they'll go back and retract
00:38:22 -->
00:38:28
they have a chance to take back some of the back bad that they did repent, get a second chance don't
wish for death.
00:38:29 -->
00:38:35
Then, of all these are the there's another one that I'll mention in the next one. But look at also
the Dora's in the Quran.
00:38:36 -->
00:39:19
Make use of Elisa Salam after a long difficult life prison. Well, servitude prison, eventually
reunited with his family and I've called it a 20 minute monkey. My master you have now given me some
part of governance, where I left any mentor with Allah Hadith and you taught me interpretation of
all kinds of words, all kinds of speech, data sumati will help molder and creator of the skies and
the earth until we leave it dunya Wallah You are my protective friend in this world and in the
afterlife. So a funny Muslim man, give me death Take me away as a Muslim eventually take me away as
a Muslim. Well, his name is Sally hain and give me join me in the company of good people.
00:39:20 -->
00:39:54
In other words, Allah I'm looking forward you've given me finally you've given me some authority let
me live a good life and when you when you do take me, take me as a Muslim you have later on so they
might add instead of robotic and he laughed. He smiled and as he smiled he laughed miracoli when he
heard the speech of the ends were called out of the OCR and he he said master empower me enabled me
strengthen me and Ashkelon, aromatic allottee and Antalya enabled me to be grateful to the favor
that you've given me when you ask a lot to be grateful. Is that grateful on the Day of Judgment are
grateful in this world?
00:39:56 -->
00:39:59
Yeah, like give me the ability to be grateful which means give me
00:40:00 -->
00:40:38
life to be grateful. We live here and we appreciate your blessings. Allah Allah Allah, Allah, Allah
do the favor you've done on me and my both my parents were an AMA lasallian Tada and empower me to
do good deeds that make you happy. Well, as an attendee, we like McAfee robotic asahina. And
finally, enter me into a company of good people, when you take me eventually, but for now give me
the ability to do good Yalla empower me to do good stuff. Our view is not that we wish for death. We
don't the province or something explicitly told us don't wish for death, then why is the law telling
these people wish for death? That's why I said all this, why in the world would they be told wish
00:40:38 -->
00:40:44
for death and listen to in soldier matamanoa mode, and God knows how they wish for death if you are
truthful.
00:40:45 -->
00:40:54
This is actually part of a a clause. If you think that you are absolutely saved in the next life,
then wish for death.
00:40:55 -->
00:41:10
If the next world is exclusively in your favor, and no other people are going to get there you are
guaranteed it then go ahead. Why do you want Why are you bothering with a hard life here? And we
will never wish for it. Because what do we What don't we have?
00:41:11 -->
00:41:18
We don't have a guarantee. So that's not even a question for us. But if you guys are saying you have
a guarantee you you right now you have to put up with us.
00:41:20 -->
00:41:58
You have to put up with sickness, you have to put up with disease, you have to put up with a machine
who beat you up to go over the lives be happy, you know wish for that. But that's even that I don't
agree with entirely. They're not being told wish for death, they're being told actually be
optimistic about the prospect of death. Not hope for death, but be hopeful about death is actually
closer to the intent here seems it seems like Muslims, even though we don't have a guarantee or be
hopeful about death, yes, we have a combination of fear and hope. But you people should at least be
optimistic that yes, good things will happen when we die. good things will happen. When this makes
00:41:58 -->
00:42:23
it clear that actually this particular challenge is not to all Jews, it's for the Jews of Medina,
you people have pretty much made the claim that you don't need this revelation that you already
believe and you're in good standing. By the way, the previous passage has already proven that they
are not in good standing. But since you're so confident that you are in good standing, then why
don't you do this? Why don't you openly declare Yala, I'm pretty confident that I'm going to get
gender. Take me.
00:42:25 -->
00:42:39
Why don't you declare that wish? And you know what? You don't even have to say it with your tongue.
Why don't you just mean it with your heart? Because you know, the conversation here is less about
the tongue, and more about the heart. And the idea was if they were to wish it even once sincerely
what would Allah do?
00:42:41 -->
00:42:42
Give it to them.
00:42:43 -->
00:42:50
Give it to them. This is not an open challenge. I wish for death. And somebody says, Oh yeah,
challenge me. I wish for death.
00:42:51 -->
00:43:03
Allah is actually probing not their tongues, but their hearts. Because you know, one of them even
came to armor. I think it was another man about your book says we don't wish for death. I do.
00:43:04 -->
00:43:14
It was actually Abdullah bin Omar, I believe. And so he comes to him and he says, hold on. And
Abdullah bin Omar goes and grabs a sword it comes back and the guy ran off
00:43:17 -->
00:43:20
as you wish for death, so I was gonna give you what you're wishing for.
00:43:21 -->
00:43:26
It wasn't gonna kill him. But he made his point. Like you idiot. Does that what he's talking about.
00:43:28 -->
00:44:01
But anyway, well, anytime I know who they are, they're never going to be optimistic about the
prospect of death. They're not going to be hopeful about that. Why not be my god dammit ad him
because of what they've already sent ahead with their hands, the stuff they've done with their own
hands, the investments they've made into their future, their crimes they've committed, what crimes
they committed, they've defined their own Taurat they've hidden what they have in their book,
they've defied this messenger. They've gone on a campaign against the Quran. They know what they've
done. Now it's becoming unequivocally clear to them what they've done. They're not wishing for no
00:44:01 -->
00:44:35
death. Allah is not now talking about they will never wish for it like a challenge like Muslims know
that they shall never ever come before you and wish for death. Because if they do, it will prove the
Quran wrong. No, no allies talking about what goes on inside of their hearts. Allah is actually
saying that let me tell you something about what's going on deep down inside them. It's never gonna
happen. They're never gonna wish for it. They're never going to be optimistic about it. Even though
they're telling you they're confident that Allah loves them, and he's gonna take care of them deep
down inside, they have been shaken to their core. They're not ready to meet a lot. Let me tell you,
00:44:35 -->
00:44:46
there is a what you can call cognitive dissonance. There's a contradiction between what they are
saying and what they even themselves internally feel. They're not sure of it. They can't wish for
it. Well, Allahu Allah.
00:44:47 -->
00:45:00
And Allah knows, Allah is fully fully knowledgeable of people who do wrong, and literally, what
O'Shea infiltrating mahali violin is a play on before right? You worship the calf in your violin.
The word came before but in this
00:45:00 -->
00:45:17
particular case also is interesting placement. Allah knows those who misplaced volume literally the
one who misplaced is something puts it somewhere it doesn't belong. Like their words, their claims,
which are misplaced, because they don't represent what they have inside of their hearts, you know,
and the idea of goddamnit ad him
00:45:19 -->
00:45:55
instead of saying they won't wish for it because of what they did the mufaddal they might say what
their hands, the English translations or what their hands sent forth. That's, that doesn't really
tell you much what their hands sent forth. What it actually means is the stuff they've done
deliberately the craftiness with which they've schemed and conspired, literally the book they
changed with their hands, things like that. The murder of profits from before all those crimes piled
up and now the crimes that are committed against the messenger say Salaam and the use of the hands
also suggests something that's done deliberately. So they're they've deliberately done these crimes
00:45:55 -->
00:46:12
and they know what they've done. And that's why they're never going to, they're never going to find
themselves having positive prospects for death. I've taken over seven o'clock and shallow Tada. I
intended to do one more IRA, but it's going to take at least half an hour to do this higher. So I
won't do that today. inshallah, we'll come back next week and do it.
00:46:14 -->
00:46:14
Again, when
00:46:19 -->
00:46:32
our mission is to spread awareness of the message and divine beauty of Quran across the world.
