Omar Suleiman – Gems from the Miracles and Manners of Jesus (as)

			Dear Brothers and Sisters, obviously, as shetasiv Regis had mentioned, you know, a few weeks ago
when we did the Wednesday conversations, as the environment around us is an environment of a
holiday.
		

			That obviously explains the large number of kids in the messenger today at home, the lowbrow mean,
that it's an opportunity for us to have discussions. And obviously, when it's Christmas season,
there are multiple layers of that discussion. One layer of that discussion is to look at the origins
of a holiday. Right? And to see where it actually rises from another layer of that discussion, is
how do Muslims reconcile not celebrating Christmas with their professed love for reciting Islam for
Jesus peace be upon them. And then, of course, the discussions about how Muslims can maintain their
identity while still being friendly and good and kind to their neighbors, while still preserving
		

			their own religion and their own identity. And the conversations that start to arise about what what
does reciting his salaam mean to you, you don't celebrate Christmas, you can explain that
historically, logically, you can sort of, you know, go through the different reasons, but what is
your version of Christ? What is your love of Jesus peace be upon him? And how do you reconcile your
belief in Him and not attribute certain things to him. And so, in the spirit of these conversations
that we have with our co workers and our friends, and our neighbors, it's important for us to talk
about who are esigning is Salam is to us, and who are Eastside Islam, in fact, was, in his own
		

			words, and what the miracles of a Saudi salaam are that getting through the holiday, the
commercialization of a holiday and everything in between, to the man himself, and to what his
mission actually was. Now, for this whole time, I want to focus on something very specific, which is
His miracles, and then his manners with some emphasis on the second one, especially for Muslims,
because neither of those two things are random. His miracles are not random. And he has a prophet it
his salaam with many miracles, a prophet who Allah speaks about his miracles in great detail, some
miracles found in the Quran, and the Sunnah of the Prophet, slice alum, that are not even found in
		

			Christian literature, right, or at least in the Bible. And as it exists today, the interpretations
and extrapolations of the Bible, right these miracles that are upheld within the second part of that
his manners, and some of the ways that the prophets lie, some conveyed that to us and what that
means for us. And so in that spirit, obviously, Islam does not see that the existence of such
incredible miracles is a sign of a man who was divine himself. So his miracles are not a proof of
divinity, but they are proof of divine mission and his manners, just like the other prophets, when
Allah gives us a window into the manners and into the character of the prophets that came before.
		

			They're not merely to be admired, but to be absorbed, to be lived in our own lives so that we can
draw from the wisdom of Isa Alayhis Salam, this noble and mighty Prophet, that the Prophet
sallallahu wasallam said that there is no person who is closer to Jesus, the son of Mary it has
Salam because there is no prophet between he and I, a prophet who is mentioned in the Quran over 25
times, a prophet that some of you are named after. And subhanAllah if we look around the Muslim
world, you find the name of Isa presence throughout the Muslim world out of love and out of
reverence for this man it has set up and it starts with the miracle of his birth. And obviously
		

			ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada explains that, while we uphold the miracle of a Saudi son being born to his
pure mother, a Virgin Mary, it has Sarah who is mentioned her own right has an entire Surah named
after her that the very first words that came out of the mouth of this man, when he was a baby in
the cradle, we're in near Abdullah. I am the servant of Allah. And there's of course in that a
testimony of tau Hades of monotheism and upholding monotheism but also honoring his mother and
immediately clearing his mother's name from the accusations that will come towards her and he has
Salam May peace be upon her, when people accuse her of different things that Allah subhanaw taala
		

			allows the baby to speak immediately from the cradle and say in near Abdullah, and that is actually
a form of honoring Him. That is actually a form of upholding his honor as Allah subhanaw taala says
lennier Stan Kiefel Masirah in your corner Abdullah? Well, Mary Catherine Makara Boone, there isa is
Salam is not too proud to be asked of Allah to be a servant of Allah.
		

			And not even the closest of the angels to Allah. They see it as a form of honor and it is indeed a
form of honor to be Abdullah. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the Prophet Muhammad peace be
upon him, of course taught us to say what to say, a shadow under Muhammad and Abdul who will soon do
not just say, he is the messenger of Allah, but rather say about me, as had to enter Muhammad Abdul
who was a Zulu testify that Muhammad Sallallahu wasallam is the servant and the Messenger of Allah,
because when Allah takes you as an ad, and you have a robe, and you have a lord and a sustainer,
that is who he is, then that is a form of honoring and elevating the person. And so reciting his
		

			Salam immediately says, in the Abdullah, hence his first miracle is documented in the Quran as such,
and then you find the verse and sort of earlier Imran will soon Sulan ILA Benny is in a new project
to come, be it and Rob decom and the local law community clinic, hey, at your play it for unfuckable
fee for your corner, we'll play it on the evening law, and a messenger to the Children of Israel.
Indeed, I will have come to you with a sign from your Lord, that I designed for you from clay, that
which is like the form of a bird and then I breathe into it and it becomes a bird by the permission
of Allah. No, by the way, that in mainstream Christianity, the as it exists today, the first miracle
		

			of birth, and speaking from the cradle, as well as this fashioning of a bird from clay is not
something that's actually upheld, which Subhanallah shows you another form of honoring, he certainly
has set up. And then Allah subhanho wa Taala continues with the words a very sorry, his Salam in
this regard. And he says, What obreon ECMO How will abasolo feel motivated Nilla and he said that I
have I cure the blind and the leper and I give life to the dead by the permission of Allah Well,
Nabeel can be Mater Kulu no matter if you don't want people to come and inform you about that what
you eat and you store in your homes and in that is a sign from ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada. So that you
		

			may believe, so are you sorry Salam mentions these miracles in every single time by the permission
of Allah by the permission of Allah by the permission of Allah. Now, these miracles are not random.
And there's something special about each and every single one of them, that I want to go into for a
moment. Number one, the rhythm I mentioned, the scholars mentioned that he Saudi Islam is the last
prophet to Benny Islam.
		

			And hence, the more deserts the the, the miracles that were given to him, were plentiful, and
comprehensive, and so undeniable, as this is a proof for or against the people, as their prophet
highlights things for them. And so he Saudi Islam has given all of these different types of
miracles, miracles that are not necessarily unique to him. But in fact, with many Islam, he, you
find prophets of the past that had similar miracles. So for example, the prophet Elijah, in the
Bible raised hundreds from the dead, He raised entire nations, of people from the dead, He healed
the blind, he called for rain and it came, he stopped it all by the permission of Allah brings fire
		

			from the sky. These are things that we find from the prophets of Benny saw eat in regards to their
miracles. And so it's not a sign of His divinity, but rather, it's actually something that you find
with the prophets of Allah that Allah gave them great miracles, because Benny Slade was a nation of
Agia. They were a nation in which things appeared before them in certain ways, and the profit slice
and I mentioned some of those things to us. Now, why a bird from clay, you start from the some of
the scholars mentioned that, of course, as he sat at his Salaam is coming to these people.
		

			His main audience is Benny is slowly but at that time, you also have the Roman presence in
Jerusalem. And as the Roman presence is now prominent in Jerusalem, you start to have sculptures
that are prominent and Roman sculptures that are placed strategically by Herod around the city of El
Cortes.
		

			And of course we know that Allah subhana wa Tada would challenge such people to say create on the
day of judgment and they would not be able to create and so Allah azza wa jal gives a miracle to all
of the people in that sense that a bird is given life only by the permission of Allah subhanho wa
taala. And then OB will ACMA eye cure, an eczema the blind. Now the more common word for the blind
is actually someone who has asthma, Irma. Irma is someone who went blind later on in life.
		

			Okay, here you're talking about a person who is actually born blind and known their entire lives to
not be able to see why is that important? Because there was a lot of trickery that
		

			was carried out by those who claimed to be healers in the time of a Saudi set up. Right? It was it
was commonplace that someone would pretend that he was blind, he'd walk up to the person, and this
person would heal his eyesight in front of the people. And then people would throw money at him so
that he could do the same for them, they'd go and they bring their blind so that he could do the
same for them. So Subhanallah as a hedge as a proof against the people, nobody will act Maha, the
one who was born blind and not known as anything but blind, Allah subhanaw taala made it so that a
Saudi is Salam would rub their eyes and they would suddenly be able to see when abrasca and the
		

			leper, and leprosy was very common in the time of ESRD, some also a form of healing. And these
people that would pretend to heal, always had immediately after their fake healing, a demand for
money,
		

			were healed, you now pay up through us, your gold throw us your silver. And so the problem is, their
attachment to dunya. Their attachment to this world is causing them to cheat. And this was another
way in which religion had become a product by which you could exploit the people similar to coration
Maccha. They didn't care about these idols, they cared about the money that the idols gave them, and
the power and the authority that the idols gave them. So you had these people claiming to be able to
heal, and they immediately consumed the money from the people in moto give life to the dead. And
this is perhaps where it becomes very interesting.
		

			That eSATA is Salam, just like other prophets from Bani Israel,
		

			a few of them was given this ability to raise someone who had passed away. Now what they would do
is, of course, they had a scheme here to the scam was that someone would pretend to be dead, and
that at their funeral, the healer would come and he touched this person that suddenly died, right or
that died yesterday. And the person rises. That's a heavier price. Look at the menu board, curing
leprosy, blindness, cure the person who died, bring them back to life. So recently his Salam o Allah
gave him a miracle that was more decisive than that.
		

			Where he could raise people that had died some time ago. And they even said to him, they said,
indicateur, human Kanemoto Kareem, you only bring life to those that died recently, because that was
their scam. They knew their con. They knew how they were scamming the people. So Allah subhanho wa
Taala makes it so that ISA is Salam could go to the grave of a person who died hundreds of years ago
and say, Bismillah
		

			and raise that person from the debt and amazing miracle Subhanallah similar to when you say Musa
alayhis salam, the miracle Allah gave Musa Islam against the sorcerer's of Pharaoh. The first people
to recognize that this was truth was those who used to work the sorcery that this is different. This
is not the same, just like the poet's of Arabia were the first to recognize the miracle of the
Quran. The healers at the time of ERISA Islam were the first to recognize the miracle that was given
to isa at his Salah after all of this What did they say to him all who had been moving
		

			those healers they said no no, this is just sorcery. He's just playing with people's eyes at this
point. They still insisted on their disbelief and the last miracle while own a bit Oh can be my
attack who do not want to duck you don't wanna be booty come this was scary to Benny slightly.
		

			I tell you what you store in your homes.
		

			This is scary to them because of the corruption that exists in the midst of them. Right. And you
think about what that means for a Saudi Saddam when a bill can be made coluna matter deputy Rona
people used to come that I inform you about that what you eat, and that what you store in your
homes. And so the miracles are very Sania Salam, each one of them fit a particular goal, and a
particular particular proof and all of them speak to the power of the one that sent him and sent the
prophets before and sent the Prophet slicin I'm after him and even his return it his salaam, the
return of a Saturday is Salah, all of it. Every miracle that he comes with is one that ALLAH SubhanA
		

			wa Tada unlocks great proofs and great blessings for the people through his return. May Allah
subhanaw taala send His peace and blessings upon him. Now when it comes to his manners, and this is
something that's not as well known in terms of Hadith literature from the Prophet slice I'm
describing the manners of Saudi Islam. He certainly is Salam was an anti Dunia prophet.
		

			He was Azad. He was an ascetic, that is the description of recites on one NARRATION The Prophets lie
some called uploadable the Allahu Anhu ship at 70 Merriam, the one who resembles reciting his Salah
because ISA is an ascetic so when you read about his wisdom when you read his view
		

			Words however, they come to us whether it's a Hadith of the Prophet sly summer narrations from the
pious predecessors or narrations that made their way into the book that do not undermine, right the
thrust of his mission. They're all about the preference of the akhira to this dunya the preference
of the Hereafter to this world. Why? Because our isa Islam said to those who had manipulated the
text down to Madonia folk or OC Kumar, Kurata academical, you placed the world over your head and
you've placed the hereafter under your feet, your addict addiction to dunya to the material world
has caused you to abandon even the most sacred of revelation and to use it to hurt and to harm and
		

			to exploit.
		

			And so the reason it has Scylla you find this to be a common theme in his descriptions, as he
teaches the people Zuid asceticism, and not to attach themselves to this dunya too much. Now when it
comes to his manners. Remember one of the miracles that Allah mentions that he was able to tell
people what they had in their homes, the prophets lie, some says in a hadith in Sahih al Bukhari
mobile operator or the Allahu Taala and Honkala in salatu salam ala isa memoria Murad Jhulan. Yes,
slick, Risa Islam saw a man in front of him stealing for call Allahu Asaka. So he said to him, did
you steal? And the man said, Kela Allah, He said No, by Allah, Allah de la ilaha illa, who I swear
		

			by Allah by the one in by whom there is no God, but him. I did not steal it. Sorry, Islam, was given
the ability to know what people were storing in their homes at times. What did the prophets lie,
some say that he saw a slum said, color is meant to be law, we can have up to it.
		

			So that I believe in Allah and I will consider my vision, my eyesight,
		

			to not be truthful in this regard.
		

			What is this a lesson of, especially one, the good assumptions that he had of people, you know,
imagine the miracle that has been given to him. And in this regard, he Sati Salaam is teaching what
do not let your eyes fall on the tube on the faults of people because if you let it constantly
navigate the faults and the flaws of people, your heart will harden, you'll become ignorant of
yourself, and arrogant as well. The fact that even this prophet of Allah is teaching us this before
a world of social media. Do not let your eye wander towards the faults and the flaws of people,
whether it's virtually or in front of you. Instead, purify your heart and look to the world with a
		

			different type of vision. That's one of the manners that we learned from a Saudi Saddam and another
authentic hadith. Reciting is Saddam was walking and he saw a pig, or called for the salam said Go
in peace. So someone said to him, do you say to the pig, Go in peace.
		

			So what did he respond? Allah in the a half an hour with really sunny and not covered Sue?
		

			Said, I'm afraid to make my tongue or accustom my tongue to speaking ill, to speaking bad words.
This prophet of Allah is trying to protect his eyes and protect his tongue. Two major lessons that
we can learn from him. I like his Salam that are conveyed to us by the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, in this regard, and it tells us something about him. And it tells us something about not
letting a superiority or a perceived superiority caused you to belittle and to harm and to use the
faculties that Allah gave you, this man who Allah subhanaw taala gave power to raise a dead person
to life and to heal is worried about how he's using his tongue in his eyes. So what about us?
		

			What about us, with our vision, and with our speech, and ensuring that we use it only in ways that
are righteous, and there are multiple narrations SubhanAllah. And I'll end with this one. This is
not a Hadith of the Prophet, slice alum to be clear, it's one of the things that comes to us and as
the prophets mice, I mentioned that when we come across the narrations of any sort of eat, we affirm
what is agreeable, but without a sense of certainty, we take the benefit of it and we deny what
undermines the very essence of the mission of monotheism and prophethood that he sorry salaam was
once asked How are you able to walk on water? You know, all these miracles that you do, how are you
		

			able to do all of these things?
		

			And he saw the Saddam responded, call Amelia pin, he said with Yaqeen with certainty.
		

			And the how are you and the disciples responded and said we also have it and he said to them, are
stone clay and gold equal in your eyes?
		

			Do you see stone gold and close?
		

			In the same way, and they said no, he said they are in mind
		

			of the dunya the love of this world. So clearly Coppelia is the root cause of every disobedience and
every distraction and every delusion. He started his Salaam is teaching us manners and he's teaching
us as well. That while these miracles are given as a gift from Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, there's
a righteous vessel that encompasses those miracles. And that when it came to this dunya dunya in the
eyes are very sorry his salaam, the material world in the eyes of reciting his Salah was not
anything that could possibly taint or corrupt. So we asked Allah subhana wa Tada to send his peace
and blessings upon all of the messengers and prophets of Allah. We ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to
		

			allow us to follow in the footsteps of the prophets and the messengers and the martyrs and the
truthful ones and the righteous ones and we ask Allah to allow them to be our companions. In the
highest level of generative for the dose Allah Amina politically had our stuff in La Jolla comedy
style Muslim infested Pharaoh in the hood or for Rahim.
