The speakers discuss the history and use of the Prophet's statement about the number of years the prophets would spend, as well as the confusion surrounding the title "70,000." They emphasize the need for people to commit sin and innovation in their religion to avoid becoming evil, and the return of the Prophet sallua Alayhi wa-Sallam's actions and "goodness." They also touch on the historical significance of the spiritual teachings of Islam, the historical significance of trusting oneself, and the difficulty of working on animals with clipped wings.

So now I want to talk about a council
member Haman Hamza denying Ramadan, Amin salatu salam ala. So the hidden kidding, Allah only he was like me he Marine. So for those of you that are from our community that are from Valley Ranch, you know that we used to do this in this format
every night in the last 10 nights of Ramadan. And so we're trying to sort of relive some of the atmosphere of Ramadan. For those of you that are not from our community, this is what we used to do every night in Omaha. And the last two nights of Ramadan just sort of have this intimate gathering where we sit all together and we just reflect upon some of the Hadith of the Prophet salAllahu alayhi wasallam particularly, I was using Salman has little classes in the book of the the methodology of the seekers by the man. Kodama Rahim, Allah to Anna and I was going through Kitab a toe but I was going through the book of repentance, in the last two nights of Ramadan. But tonight,
the next chapter actually are one of the chapters that that he has in his means of salvation. And when GX the means of salvation, is the chapter of Tawakkol the chapter of trusting Allah subhanaw taala, putting your trust in Allah subhanaw taala. And there was particularly one Hadith that I that I picked, that I thought would be a nice Hadith for us to discuss.
And, you know, try to understand insha Allah to Allah
going forward, and it's the Hadith about the 70,000. And to put things in perspective here, the number seven has certain implications. So we find the number seven, Rahim Allah Allah says, the number seven is the number of Allah subhanaw taala for a throw off, it's the number of years that the prophets went through each Mohalla each state so use of Alayhis Salam, each one of his states was seven years or so the loss of Allah Allah and he was salam he lived in under persecution in Mecca for seven years. And then he lived away from Mecca. In Medina for seven years before the treaty or the via where he was allowed back entry into Mecca. We find that Allah subhanaw taala
mentioned seven heavens you mentioned seven Earths last panel, which uses the number seven employees the number seven frequently. So the number seven is a number that we find frequently being used within the study within within the creation of the heavens and the earth. And surely there's some wisdom to it. And then you have the number 70 and 70. And anything that that has submarine in it that has the word submarine 70 in it. In the literature for the profit slice and I mentioned severe ruin or submarine, then there are two ways to look at it. Sometimes the profit slice and I'm was being literal. And most of the time, the word Sabine amongst the Arabs was used to refer to El
Castro was used to refer to abundance and it wasn't necessarily an exact number. So for example, there's there's the very famous Hadith of the Prophet, slice alum, where he refers to the sects the breaking off of the Imam, the breaking off of the nations into various sects. So the prophets of Allah Azza wa sallam, he mentioned that, that the Jews broke off into 71 sects, and the Christians broke off into 72 sects, and that this Allah would break into 73 sects Kulu home for now Illawarra hidden the prophets why some said all of them would be in hellfire except for one. Okay. Now when the Prophet saw some says this, and I'm gonna show Kenny Rahim, Allah to Allah says the Prophet
slicin was not being literal in saying that the Jews literally have 71 sects. And the Christians literally have 72 sects and the Muslims would literally have 73 sects, instead of the prophets of Allah, who it was saying that we would continue to break off until we break off even further than the Christians and the Jews, and we have even more sects amongst us than the Christians and the Jews. And one of the prophets lysozyme says this again, he's referring to abundance, alright, so it's not the exact number, then you have the number 70,000. Now, why is the number 70,000? Special? All right, anyone who knows the doctrine of Jehovah's Witnesses, and according to Jehovah's
Witnesses, for example, 70,000 people 70,000 is actually the number of people that go to paradise. Okay. So you have 70,000 that go to Paradise, and then you have those that are punished or banished to non existence and then you have everyone else that's in a state of neutrality, or in a lower sense of a heaven. Okay, but only 70,000 actually make it to agenda. Now obviously, this is the belief of
Some of the other sects as well within Christianity. So obviously when you say that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says that there are 70,000 special people amongst this ummah, there's a fear, or they're not a fear, but but there's a tendency, or a possibility that we would conflate the two, a hadith, or we would conflate this hadith with that common theology with that belief that's found amongst some Christian sects. Now, obviously, to be literal, sometimes is not good for us. So just like the Hadith of the 73 sects, what do you see some websites do? They go on, they classified the 73 sects, obviously making themselves the safe sect. And then they go in, they write the names
of 72 other groups, right to say, This is what the Prophet saw a lot he was almost talking about. So there's a danger sometimes of being literal, but what is this hadith and what is being referred to as the 70,000 so you often find this title within the books of test kiya okay? I would highly recommend Allah to Allah has a section of it as well, the 70,000 Who are the 70,000 so this hadith is a hadith is narrated multiple times, and I'll give you guys the various narrations first the Hadith and within our Buhari from even our bustle the low tide and who were the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam, he came out to us he came out to the Sahaba and also Allah salAllahu alayhi wa
sallam says that the Ummah, the different nations, were displayed before me. And when he says early lot that they were all presented to me the Prophet saw some literally he saw scenes, he saw, you know, the scenes of the nations on the Day of Judgment. So the Prophet FaceTime says early those are
the various nations were shown in front of me. Now obviously, every nation on the Day of Judgment stands behind who?
Their profit. Okay, now, there are two types of standing here. Okay. There is the standing of every human being that was accountable through that profit behind that profit. And then there's one Allah subhanaw taala purchase, and the only people standing are the believers behind that prophet. How do we know that there's a difference between the two? The prophets of Allah Allah, he was salam describing the Iowa Karateka Jana Kuma 10 was Sultan Anita Hakuna shahada and a nice way Hakuna Rasulullah Alikum Shahida the Prophet slicin was describing the Iowa last Pantai says in Surah Al Baqarah that we have made you know mutton was superb, you know, a moderate Ummah and a balanced on
and also waffle for low salt will be the last ditch Hakuna shahada Allah nurse and you are witnesses upon all people. You are witnesses upon all people way Hakuna Rasulullah Alikum Shahida and the messenger will be a witness upon you. What is this referring to the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam said that on the Day of Judgment every person would line up behind the profit that they were sent to the ER that was sent to them. Okay, if a profit and the loss parent account it says when I couldn't mark the vena Hatta number, I thought ah, Sula. We never punish people unless we sent a profit to them. So let's say a person never received the Prophet Okay, or they never received the
message of the Prophet of their time. Okay, so they will be excused them and we'll talk about that in a moment inshallah. But those who were accountable to Allah Subhana Allah to Allah because a messenger reach them, or a messenger of that messenger reach them. Like in Surah Yaseen, where Allah subhanaw taala mentions the sending of Rasul in the very beginning of it the sending of messengers to people, all right, Allah subhanaw taala is not talking about prophets. He's talking about the messengers of a messenger. They're messengers of the messenger who serves that that role within this home of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam.
Firstly, the scholars because they're the inheritors of the prophets, and then every Muslim every believer, because the Prophet sallallahu wasallam says ballyhoo Honey When I convey on my behalf, even if you're just going to convey one verse one sentence convey on my behalf. So either so you would, you would have been a person who either heard that Prophet directly, or you heard the messenger or someone convey on behalf of that prophet. So the Prophet sallallahu Sallam he says that everyone stands behind the prophet of their time. And Allah subhanho wa Taala asks, the prophet of that time, you know, did you convey the message that I commanded you to convey? How many prophets
were they? How many prophets were sent to mankind?
124,000 All right, the Hadith and mostly Muhammad, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says that Allah has sent one hand
Jared and 24,000 prophets, amongst them 315 were messengers were roasted, meaning 315 came with a new Shediac a new legislation, whereas prophets came after those messengers that were also prophets prophets came and reinforce the message of that messenger. So this is referring to the MBR, not just little suit. Okay, so you have 124,000 prophets lined up on the day of judgment.
And behind each one of them are the people that they were sent to Subhan Allah just imagine the scene, okay. And Allah subhanaw taala goes one by one through those prophets and Allah subhana wa Tada says, Did you convey the message? Did you do your job or not? And that prophet will of course they, of course I did.
I did convey the message and the Prophet would of course, be telling the truth. Then a last point I would ask the people did that Prophet convey to you as he says, some of those people would say, yes, some of them would say no.
All right now, think about it. If you're someone who believed, alright, the easiest way to get yourself out of that situation on the Day of Judgment, or as you think, right is to say, Well, I just never heard the message. You're not gonna fool Allah subhanaw taala. So when you say I just never heard the message, who does Allah subhanaw taala call forth to judge between that Prophet and that OMA, the OMA of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
So then Allah subhanaw taala calls the Muslims, the OMA of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and Allah subhanaw taala calls them to bear witness in favor of those prophets. For some of them, we would actually testify so the prophets why some such particularly the people of New Hadees set up now know how to histogram for example, you know, only a handful of people believe a little over 80 people believe that know how to use Salam over 950 years. So he has a huge number of people standing behind him.
Okay, that over the course of 950 years, the Prophet slicin mentions that the believers would actually that the Muslims would actually come forward his Alma would actually come forward and they would testify against the people of North and you know what they would do they would, they would use as evidence the verses of the Quran.
Okay, in our Southern New one ILA call me under comarca man kabhi to Marga Aleem and so on so forth. The different different verses were last pants I mentioned, the drought of no honey Salam and the conveyance of Nurhaliza Salam of the message to those people. So you imagine Subhan Allah knew how to use the lamb is going to have this huge amount of people that he's never met before that are testifying in his favor and referencing verses of the Quran like yeah, Allah, we heard the dua of know how to use Salah we heard know how to his salaam saying that oh to call me Leila and when a Hara I called them day and night. I tried this. I tried that. We know that because we heard it
through the prophets of Allah Allah He was sunnah. So we would bear witness in the favor of no highlight his salah, and we go through the different prophets, and we bear witness in favor of the Prophet against those people. That rejected all right now the believers acknowledged from the start. Now what happens as we as we do so with each one of these prophets, okay, ALLAH SubhanA, Allah, Allah purges the disbelievers amongst those nations. So when that purge takes place, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he mentioned that there would be a prophet with one person behind him. He said someone have to someone have a group, and someone have very large nations behind them and
someone had no one Subhan Allah, can you imagine Allah subhanaw taala established the proof against some nations, by sending to them a prophet, inspiring that Prophet with Revelation. And that Prophet leaves this world with not a single follower. He had a book, he had a revelation. He had, he had inspiration from ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada. And his people rejected him entirely. He had not a single follower, and he stands on the Day of Judgment all by himself, Allah subhanaw taala purges his entire ummah. Can you imagine? How Allah that? Allah subhanaw taala Of course, it's not going to hold that Prophet accountable. He did his job, right? He did what he was supposed to do. So this
purge takes place with all of the other prophets of Allah subhanaw taala and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam mentions that his own man particular he has, for example, Al cote, he has his health. He has his spring he has his water and he's waiting to receive his own masala and he was salam with his particular perch, right. And the prophets license is serving his Alma those glasses of water
Order from his hand sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and of course, if you drink from the hand of the Prophet, slice alum, then you would never be thirsty again. So the Prophet slicin is waiting now to receive his own amongst the *, the purchase taking place amongst his own as well. And they are running towards him sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and the prophets lysozyme is waiting for the people and the prophets like some told us he said that I am waiting for you at the Hellz panela I'm waiting for you like when you miss the prophets, Lysa them. The prophets les sentiments comforting you and consoling you as an OMA all together, that I'll be waiting for you at the help. So So Assam is
receiving the Muslims. And then there is a second perch. And that Purge is with the people of innovation with that would be that we ask Allah Subhana Allah to protect us from Cofield or from Buddha or anything that would keep us away from the prophets of Allah he was salam were the prophets. Why Some said some people now this is when the second perch are coming towards the Prophet salallahu Salam, and they're running at the Prophet sallallahu and he was summoned. And also last night and I'm sees them and he's about to receive them. Salallahu Salam, and I'm about to hand them, their glasses of water. And they are saying that they are thirsty option option. They're actually
saying that they're thirsty. And then Allah subhanaw taala places a barrier between them and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
and the prophets lysozyme says I know their names. And I know the names of their parents. Why? You know, this is actually the irony of its Hala there are people who may be set Salawat they sent Peace and blessings on the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and when you send the peace and blessings on the Prophet slice, and then then those Salawat reach the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam, but it could be that these people though innovated in the religion. Okay, they innovated in the religion so they added to the message of the Prophet sly some they changed the message of the prophets license. They innovated rituals into the religion why has been so severe because you do shape bonds
job for him. Because you think you're doing good, but you're actually doing evil would have known a bit of a comeback Serena? Alladhina Baldassarre Johan filha dunya when we ask someone and now we are saying no no. So now they think they're doing good, but they're really doing evil. Okay, and the danger of Buddha of course the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he mentioned that that shape on comes to you first which should and shape on doesn't succeed and leading you astray Woulda, Shoulda coulda disbelief then shape on then comes to you with bid that was innovation and shape on doesn't succeed with bid he comes to you with major sin with a Kabila. Why because the Prophet SAW so I
mean, just think about the shape on would rather you commit an innovation in the religion then commit a major sin shape on would rather you innovate in your salon and you're either that or do something of this religion that is not of it, then commit adultery. Why? Because number one you do shape ons work. You know when you're committing Zina, you're not unless you're a crazy, you're a crazy person, you're not deluded into thinking that this is going to be a good thing or that this is going to bear you know, do well for you on the Day of Judgment, you know that it's evil. But when you're doing it bad, or you're doing an act of worship, or you're innovating something into the
religion, it feels good. Right? So if you're an authority, don't hate me, Allah, Allah says that it is sciatica. limitada it is the poetry of every innovator now Aradhana a little higher. All we were trying to do was good things. We felt good. Okay, we felt good. It felt amazing. We felt spiritual, and we did this. All right. So two things happen as a result. Number one, you do something evil without realizing it's evil. It's decorated and that which is good. Right? Someone says how can Salam be good? How can this be bad? I mean, How can Salah be evil? How can this be bad to be evil? How can this act of worshipping evil, simple because it's not what the prophets lysozyme gave to
you? So for one, you're deluded into thinking you're doing something that's good, but it's actually evil. Okay, number two, the effect of your bid ah, the effect of your innovation is that it spreads like disease.
All right, it's likened to plague. Why? Because you know, when you commit Zina, and people see you committing Zina? Is it shame on the religion? Or is it shame upon you?
And shame upon you, you've corrupted yourself. No one is going to see you commit sin and say, Oh, isn't us
right? People are just gonna be like, You're a disgrace. You know, you committed adultery, You've disgraced yourself. But an innovation lives on and it lives on like a plague. Right? Subhanallah it spreads like disease amongst the people. And it goes generation after generation and it gets worse and worse and worse and worse. So the second purge takes place when there is a barrier that's placed between the prophets of Allah and he was salam. And these people have been there and the prophets lie, Selim starts to plead to Allah subhanaw taala and on behalf of them, and also advice and I was told that, you know, you don't know what they innovated after you in Nicoletta dairy, man, the food
I mean by that you don't know Oh Messenger of Allah, what they innovated after you or not Ben de Loup, what they changed after you, you don't know what they changed and what they innovated after you. So the prophets lie Selim says them suck on. So I can remember that a Dini, that you know that this is misery. And this is humiliation for the one that changed my religion that changed the message that was brought to them. And they are left in their complete thirst and they're left away from the profit slice. Now, some of these people, eventually they enter into Jenna. Okay, so some of them still make a final cut, which is that they enter into Jannah. All right, why? Because there are
two levels of innovation. There's the Dymo cafetera and Bidda vedamo cafetera. There is an innovation that entails disbelief. And there's an innovation that does not until disbelief, it's an innovation, but it did not take you out of the fold of Islam, the innovation that Intel's disbelief, obviously it takes you entirely out of the fold of this now, the innovation that doesn't entail disbelief is an innovation that would prevent you from the profit slice them that would earn you some punishment, but eventually you make the final cut amongst those who enter into Jannah amongst the home of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So there are passages there are states on the
day of judgment. And there's some people that didn't receive the messenger or they did not receive a messenger of the messenger. Okay. And the province license mentioned in particular, that, you know, he mentioned to us, one person that would be standing by himself Subhan Allah, think about this one person who is not a Prophet, nor did a prophet come to him. And he's standing all alone as an ummah by himself. And this man was Zaid, ignore
all the Allahu Chyna. Zaid, if no honorable no fail who is a phenomenon of faith, they do not even know no faith was amongst the people that sought the truth. In the days of Janelia and the days of ignorance. There were a group of people that went out looking for the truth. One of them was working in an office, the famous cousin of Khadija, while the longtime he went looking for the truth knowing rejecting paganism, and eventually became a Christian, which was good for him because he was a monotheistic and his best way was Christianity at that point was to become a biblical scholar you had or snatam inhalator you had other people that went out looking for the truth. Amongst them, was
this man by the name of Zaid ignore the fake and they didn't know Andre was a man that the Prophet slice and witness before he received revelation and Zaid was someone that rejected paganism not only did he reject paganism, but he used to stand up in the assemblies of the people and reject their idolatry reject their worshipping of the idols and he used to reject the slaughter of the animals in the name of other than Allah subhanaw taala the Prophet slicin them says that I remember when I was a young man sitting in a gathering when they didn't um, was sitting there as well. And they were serving the meat that was slaughtered in the name of their eyes and the names of their idols because
they used to do their sacrifices in the names of their idols sacrifice at that time slaughtering was was like Salam put it in the sloty when no Sookie right Allah subhanaw taala put it in the same category prayer say that my prayer and my sacrifice will my aim woman Matthew de la hula alameen and my life and my death are all for the Lord of All the Worlds so sacrifice used to be like Salah for them, but they sacrificed in the name of their idols. So the prophets license that I was sitting and they didn't know I'm gonna fade it was there and they were bringing the meat and they were serving the meat in the profit slice and never ate from the meat that was slaughtered in the name of the
idols. But Zaid stood up and Zaid said that Allah Subhana Allah to Allah provides for you and Allah provides for you these animals and Allah subhanaw taala gives you these means and Allah provides the fodder for them and the meat and so a wash pantile provides the sustenance for you and your animals and you slaughter in the name of other than Allah subhanaw taala.
So he stood up against them, and he would put his back to the kava, and he would say that none of you are on the religion of Ibrahim it is surah I don't know what it is, but you're not on it. And he used to say Allahu Allah and the Alamo are usually a habit like Oh Allah, if only I knew which path was beloved to you was the right one. I bet to Covey, I would worship you according to that path, but I don't know any better. So he would ask Allah Subhana Allah for forgiveness and ask Allah for guidance, even in the age of paganism in the age of Janelia. And he rejected idol worship, and even rejected the way that they buried the young girls alive and Zaid would go and rescue the young girls
that were being buried alive who raised them Subhanallah all of this without walking without revelation. So his son became Muslim
because they passed away before the Prophet slice and I'm received revelation. So either was one of the first people sent me the news he was one of the first people to accept Islam and he's from and I asked him especially in the 10 promised paradise Okay, so so he asked the Prophet slice and I'm what happens to my father on
The Day of Judgment and the prophets why Selim says that when all the prophets line up, and all of the people line up behind their prophets, he said, I have seen that your father is standing by himself as an ummah.
The man comes on the day of judgment and he is his own ummah.
Because without a prophet reaching him, he was still doing it, he was still a panto Haven still worshipping Allah subhanaw taala and still doing everything that he had to do. So he doesn't even have to go amongst that group of people that are, you know, that are actually, you know, that didn't know any better and that have to, you know, go through that confirmation with Allah subhanaw taala that no prophet reached them or that they were mentally incapable of receiving the message, or that you know, they had some form of dementia by the time the message reached them or whatever it is, that he doesn't even have to go through that he's an all by himself on the Day of Judgment. So
anyway, back to the Hadith, the prophet slice, and I'm says, I see all of these nations and also the La sala la hora. And he was salam says, Then I saw this huge crowd, this huge sell out this huge crowd that covered the entire horizon. And also allah sallallahu alayhi wa salam says, I wish that it was my Alma because of how amazing the size of the OMA was. And then I was told that this is Musa alayhis salam and his Alma Alright, so this is Ben, it was to like, the believers of any Islam are still great. Yes, as you know, as a nation, many of them rejected and they did evil things, but collectively, the nation of moosari Saddam is of the greatest nations, or it's a huge OMA that
follows him on the day of judgment. So I was told that's Musa Ali Salaam and his followers. Then the Prophet slicin himself, I was turned Djibouti Radha, he Salam he turned me around and he showed me another OMA that dwarf that OMA was even greater than that oma in size. And Djibouti Valley salaam says, hola. Oma took, this is your nation, your ma is the largest your OMA is the best Subhan Allah and the prophets, like some sees this entire Ummah, in this in this revelation, so the Prophet sys. And I'm says that it was said to me, these are your followers. And amongst them, there are 70,000, who will enter Jannah, without any form of Hasaan, and without any form of other without any form of
questioning, and without any form of punishment, the profit slice and I've said this, and then the profit slice, I'm left the sahaba. This is a teaching method of the messenger SallAllahu Sallam that he wouldn't complete his sentences sometimes, or he wouldn't complete the discourse, he would leave the Sahaba to dwell about it, or dwell upon it and start asking one another and start trying to see if they fit into that category. He did this in high versal Allah Hardy was on him, he came out and he said, Tomorrow I'm going to give the banner to a man that Allah and His Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam love, and a man that loves Allah and His Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So
imagine this is like the ultimate testimony in a person but the prophets lie, some didn't say the name. So all of the Sahaba started to vie and they started to show themselves to the Prophet slice them for the entire day, hoping that they would be that person. Almost all the loads that Andrew said, I never wanted to be another person like I never wanted so badly to be that person. Like that date. And who was it it was I don't even know I'd be thought about all the a lot of time and also last night, I'm called for it all the a lot of time for the next day. Now the prophesy some did that to build an anticipation of in the Sahaba, to want to be that person that Allah and His Messenger
love, and that loves Allah and His Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, also the prophets like Selim, one time, he said to the Sahaba, there is a drought that if you say it,
in your time of hardship, Allah subhanaw taala will surely elevate you your hardship, he'll take you out of your hardship.
And then another man started talking to the prophets lysozyme also lost my son got up and he left. He didn't finish the thought. So the Sahaba like, wait a minute, where's your app? So sad. We were constantly a lot of data and who follow the profit slice and I'm home.
And he didn't want to, you know, hit in the marketplace. I'm just as he was about to get into his house. Because he started to clear his throat.
And like, you know, kind of stomp his feet a little louder. So the prophets lie some would notice and he said he was Allah, what was it? What was the
prophet so I said, I'm taught him La Ilaha. illa Anta Subhana occur in the quantum in a volume that you're out of unis it his salah, la either Atlantis of Hanukkah, in the quantum and Allah Allah me. So it's a teaching method of the prophets. Why some to sometimes leave them to dwell upon these things so that they build anticipation is built so the prophets lie, some just tells them he says, I saw my omen. I was told by the way, 70,000 of these people will enter Jannah without any form of questioning or punishment, they won't even be questioned. And they're not going to be punished. And then the prophets like some leftists have, so we're gonna imbecile the Allah Who says all of the
Sahaba gathered amongst themselves to try to figure out who that 70,000 was
and they all started to debate with one another. So some of them said, Well, we were born in jatiya. So the ones that were in Janelia first, you know, not the ones you know that, that, that, that come after we we were born in Janelia. And then we believed in Allah and His messenger from Allah while it was still absurd must be us than some of them said, No, it must be 70,000 people from those that never saw the profit slice that are meeting us. Why? Because it's harder for them. They didn't see the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Then they said some of them maybe are referring to the offspring of the prophets of Allah. It was sunnah maybe his duty may be from his idol beats, okay
from the offspring of the Prophet slicin Um, so they started to debate amongst one another, and they waited and they waited and you can imagine how you know how how much they were anticipating the profit slice of them coming out so the prophets like some he left them for a while, then also was like some came out, and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he says that the 70,000 So the Prophet slicin completed his thought, he said, The 70,000 people, he says Alladhina NyrStar Cohn? Well, I asked him when when I thought about your own wine, I won't be him yet our cologne so we're going to talk about these characteristics. He says that these people are people who wanted Athena
and another narration he says woman Medina nyatoh Play Euro they are a people that don't, that don't believe in that don't draw their omens from the birds meaning what some of the Arabs they used to come out, they were superstitious. They used to see what the birds would do if the birds went out in a certain direction. Then they took it to mean one thing and they acted upon it. So sort of like their horoscopes right? We're looking at the birds what direction the birds went, and the profit slice and I'm says what I started going, okay, and they don't seek Rokia. They don't seek Rokia, they don't seek treatment for themselves. Wala yescarta Woon Okay, and they don't cauterize
themselves now talk about catheterization what it means the medical term of it and what it meant meant at that time they don't cauterize themselves while rhombi him yet our cologne and they they put their full trust in Allah subhanaw taala Okasha or the Allah Tada anvil, Prakash even worse than he stood up and he said to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, ya rasool Allah, Allah, Allah and I caught a minimum, oh prophet of Allah, make dua that I am amongst them, and the profit slice and I'm says And Tim, in whom you are amongst them. So karma Aha, Ambassador Allah and he says another person came up and he said to the Prophet slicin and Anna jasola, mutual messenger of Allah
the Prophet slice them says, Saba, Kaka Bihar Okasha. Okasha beat you to it, meaning the only thing or Castro did was he expressed that desire at that moment like no one else, and Okasha said yes Allah make dua that I'm amongst them just by that virtue he became amongst the 70,000 Subhan Allah and the next Mojave that did it they didn't necessarily do it out of anticipation of that reward but he did it why because he saw that oh cash I got it. So let me get in on this reward and the profit slice I'm said rocastle beat you to it. That was a window of reward that Allah Subhana Allah gave only to or cash all the a lot of times I knew who wanted it most in that gathering, or cash all the
a lot of time and who wanted it and he acted upon it. Now in the narration of Muslim achmad Because now we have the number 70,000. The prophets lysozyme continued, okay, this is sad, because who's in the gathering, he continues on the same thought. And he says, Festus said to Robbie, I asked Allah Oh Allah make them more than 70,000
You know, make them more than 70,000 and this is the mercy of the Prophet slicin him that he always argues on behalf of his Alma for more, oh Allah increase, increase, increase. So he says Faza Danny McKinley elfin Sabrina Alpha.
Allah increased me by giving me another 70,000 With every one of them. So that's 70,000 Another 70,000 with each and every single one of them.
That would mean 4.9 million.
So 70,000 becomes 4.9 million. Then the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says, what Allah has a atin has a yachtie, labia Zoa gel,
and three handfuls from the handfuls of my Lord subhanho wa taala. Now of course, is there any way to measure that whatsoever?
Right You have no idea and Subhan Allah there in that said that you know, the handful of ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada is not like the handful of any individual, that Allah Subhana Allah, Allah would take three handfuls to so three handfuls of the handfuls of Allah subhanho wa sallam. So you have 4.9 million already from the Amana and three handfuls from the handfuls of Allah subhanaw taala. And there is no way to judge how many that is but it's a huge number. Case law the law
outside and who pays? Who hasn't? Who's the narrator of this hadith? He says a has to be teller Lee Abbas I took Abu sir either 100 or the Allahu taala. I know like I grabbed him when he said that when he said this that three handfuls from the handfuls of my Lord, and I said anti semitic to Harlem and also relies on Allah Islam Wait, did you really hear that from the Prophet slice? You really hurt? You know that the prophets lysozyme says 4.9 million because 70,000 with the 70,000 and then three handfuls from the handfuls of my Lord. And I will say though the Allah and Moses America to whom and who Allah who called me I heard it from the Prophet slice them and my heart accepted it
meaning my heart absorbed because I'm not going to forget something like that. So the point here, the profit slice and I'm is mentioning a large group of his OMA now just overall there's a very beautiful Hadith and by the way, this hadith is authentic that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says that Allah Jana, the people of paradise are 120 rows. How many of those rows are from the home of the prophets lie Selim, he says that 80 of those 120 rows are from the home of Rasulullah sallallahu wasallam. Can you imagine out of those 124,000 prophets
and all of their OMAS the prophets of Allah and he was Salam is OMA makes up. 80 rows out of 120 rows of the people of Jen, how Fortunate are we Subhanallah to be from the OMA Rasool allah sallallahu alayhi wa salam, right the ummah of Allah subhanaw taala is greatest messengers of Allah Azza wa salam. So getting into Jana is one thing. But this particular idea here, which is being amongst a special group of people, that will not even be asked on the Day of Judgment. Now, what would prevent Allah Subhana Allah from asking them on the Day of Judgment, it would be that they realized the effect or they realize the goal of knowing that Allah subhanaw taala would ask them. So
the idea here is that they were so consumed with knowing that Allah Subhana Allah to Allah was going to ask them on the Day of Judgment, that they lost their appetite for this world, and they trusted ALLAH SubhanA which out in the first place, they relied upon Allah subhanaw taala and they had no expectations of Allah Subhana Allah to Allah in regards to this dunya
meaning what who are the people that are going to question ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada in regards to this world and say, Why me? Why me there are people that have expectations of Allah subhanaw taala in the first place in this world.
The problem is before you start saying, Why is Allah giving this to me or not giving this to me? Is that you have too much love for this world do you expect too much from this dunya
whereas these people are so consumed with what Allah will do with them in the Hereafter, that whatever the world throws at them and whatever Allah subhanaw taala chooses to throw at them in this dunya they just say in hamdulillah as long as I'm good over there, I'm okay. Subhanallah So, the effect of the questioning of the hisab has already been realized. So ALLAH SubhanA which Allah will not question them again. How amazing is that? And the Prophet slice and M says in a hadith Bootsy, that Allah subhanaw taala has says, has said that I do not combine within my servant to fears or to feelings of security, unnamed or whole thing to feelings of fear or to feelings of security in half
an ephah dunya if he feared me in this world, then I gave him um, I gave him security in the hereafter he wants fear me in the hereafter. If you were afraid of Allah and this world, Allah will make sure that you're not afraid of him in the hereafter. It's all comfort in the hereafter. But if you felt secure from Allah and this dunya Koloff, to Flocka that Allah Subhana Allah says, I will make you fear me on the day of judgment, I will make you fear me in the hereafter. So this group of people feared Allah subhanaw taala in this world so much, that they did not make demands of Allah in this world. Because you don't start to go through superstitions and questioning and so on so forth,
until you have certain demands from Allah subhanaw taala on this world, and who are you to make demands of Allah subhanaw taala in this world? Who are you to ask Allah Subhana Allah to do or not to ask Allah subhanaw taala because asking is good, but to ask Allah why he didn't give you exactly what you wanted the way that you wanted it. Who are you to interfere in the conduct in the planning of Allah subhanho wa Taala is praiseworthy. Because when you make your ad to Allah subhana wa it's out of there's already an understanding within your drought that there's collected that there's trust in Allah subhanaw taala otherwise you wouldn't be calling upon Him to you know, with a sincere
sincere due out already embodies a sense of trust that whatever you choose to do with this drought I'm fine with I'm just asking you, for the best of it. Okay, so do I already embodies the Euro is a good thing. But what cool here the trust that you have in Allah subhanaw taala that level of trust is an air team idea and Allah can matter at Mount a full time
mussten Allah for reliance on Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, that Allah subhanho wa Taala will do and can do anything.
And that ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada is planning is better than your planning. And that trust is an empowering trust and it's an empowering to what could empowers you in this world and in the next and we'll talk about why.
People that go out and seek superstitions, and seek horoscopes and even seek Rokia
are already coming from a place of great vulnerability, aren't they?
Right, why do people start going into horoscopes and start going into you know, reading their future and things of that sort because they're insecure about their dunya in the first place. There's already a level of insecurity and a level of weakness. And that's why I have no claim Rahim Allah, Allah says no Ana lab the tiller killer and Allah He had Catella Cooley, he said C nakliye jevelin min McCarney he if a person was to have full trust in Allah subhanaw taala in moving a mountain from its place, then akala Lana, Kala lotta lemak Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah subhana, Allah to Allah would move that mountain for him. If you have full trust in Allah Subhan Allah to Allah, Allah
would allow you to move mountains as long as you understood that Allah subhanaw taala is the enabler and Allah Subhana Allah Allah is the doer and Allah Subhana Allah Allah is the one who's who's executing his plan. And you are simply a means of that execution. If a person truly had trust in Allah empowers them in this dunya and it also disarms the shape on
this is very powerful because shape on really feasts on you, and your moments of vulnerability. That's when Shavon comes to you and creates, you know, insecurities within you. When you lose trust in Allah subhana wa Tada and you're weak and you're vulnerable. And that's why I lost Subhan Allah to Allah says in the who lays Allah who sold on Allah Latina am and who robbed him yet our Cameroon shaytaan has no appeal to those who have Iman and those who have trust in Allah subhanaw taala why? Because Shavon can't come to you and say hey, look, you're weak anyway, you're going through this anyway, try this or go through this or go through that because you don't have that insecurity in the
first place. When you sin, you sin from a place of void. There's a void of the love and trust in Allah subhanaw taala and you think that this sin will fill that void that's why you do it you sin because you think that sin is going to make you happy. So to luckily disarms the shape on and it does art and it empowers you as well. So it gives you that worldly benefit and it gives you that benefit in the hereafter as well. Now just Subhanallah to go through the Hadith says Ramadan is already here because there's all welfare so I don't want to he said continue. Okay.
I want to go through the Hadith to understanding the first one. Let's start with the one that really confuses people and I started calling
people who don't ask for Opia they don't ask for rope here. What exactly does that mean? There are different Hadith here that illustrate this. The first one from alphanumerical, the Allah Tada I know he says, We were with the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and we were nine or eight people. And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says, By Rooney that give allegiance to me on my conditions, and they said, We give allegiance to You O Messenger of Allah on your conditions and the Prophet slice, um, he repeated that three times, and we repeated that three times. And then the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he gave them the condition he says that you worship Allah subhana,
Allah to Allah, and you do not associate any partner with him. Then he says, the prophets lie, some came close to us, and he called us to him. And he whispered to us, and he says, and that you don't ask people for anything.
Allah trusted Inasa don't ask people anything. Don't request anything from the people.
And subhanAllah Oh, for the law to Angela says the prophets lie some whispered this twist and repeated it to us and Aeroflot the low tide and who said, I remember that group of people that was with me. And he said, one of the he said Amongst them were people because of that, that conversation with the Prophet spies to them, if they dropped something, they wouldn't ask anyone to hand it to them. They'd get off their camera and they'd pick it up, because they took that hadith so seriously from the prophets of Allah and he was salam that they would not even ask a servant to pick up something from the ground if they dropped it Subhan Allah, they would get down and they would pick
it up because they took it so you know, to that level, like we're never going to ask anyone anything or for anything. Now obviously, asking us in some situations is okay. Right. But the prophet slice is giving a special br a special place to this group of people and that's evidenced by his whispering to them. And you know, when someone whispers something to you, it's like, there can be it couldn't be because they want privacy. It could also be because they're trying to convey something very, very silly.
Use to, you know, if you're talking in a normal tone and then you say, But I'm warning you. I'm telling you, that's the whispering of the Prophet slice and I'm here. Don't ask people's for stuff. Don't be amongst those people. Now the meaning of the Hadith has been Hydra Rahim, Allah to Allah says is that a person does not become used to asking for things. You might, it's okay to ask for things. But when it becomes your habit that you always have to go to people, you always have to ask from people. Okay? And the profit slice I'm taught was taught while on the shelf and Walkman piano will be learned where is the host of now wanting us from Djibouti Rahim Salam Gibreel told the
prophets by some know that the nobility of the believer comes from his standing up in the app. And that's when you ask ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada and the last third of the night and his independence of people. So his full dependence upon Allah subhanaw taala is nobility. And his dignity is to try to stay away from the people. Okay, from being in constant need of the people. All right, you can ask. And it's okay to ask at times, even the Sahaba were at that were in those situations, but that a person doesn't become accustomed to that. Alright, that's the meaning of the Prophet sallallahu it was sent I'm saying that to them. But now when you talk about rakia in particular Rukia is a very,
very sensitive topic. Very sensitive topic. Okay. Did the prophets lie some have Rokia done to him?
Did he?
Yeah, he did. The prophets I some used to read on himself. Not only that, but Gibreel at his salaam used to do rocky on the Prophet sallallahu wasallam did the prophets lie some do Rokia upon others? Yes he did it on it some of the Allah Tada and he did it some way Salam he used to do it because rokeya is not just when you're possessed by a jinn that's the extreme right when you think you're possessed by General Kia is the daily he used to read on an Hassanal her saying all the time and who he used to read and why we that go to Allah had coloratura will follow up cooler with Robin NAS. He used to read it on himself. So ALLAH and he was salam. He used to say read locomobi kalimat Illa
itama team and shrubbery mean Coolessay parlane wahama will include the Anan Lama and some situations he'd say I seek refuge in Allah subhanaw taala for you from every evil eye from every harmful you know, creature, whatever it may be. Okay, so different different types of Rukia starting off with er e lucuma. We can imagine that I'm not even sharing my HELOC or the profit slice I'm gonna say I seek refuge in Allah subhanaw taala for you from anything that from from from any of the evil of his creation, so doing that is praiseworthy to do rakia on yourself and to do Rokia on others is praiseworthy. However, an email to pay him Rahim Allah to Allah. He said that the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam never asked for it to be done upon him.
Okay, so that's one opinion is that you can't actually find the Prophet slice and I'm asking Rokia for himself or telling the Sahaba to ask for Rokia. But rather a person appears to be sick. And even Tamia Rahim Allah to Allah He actually has a chapter on this hadith is much more of the filthy position of it. He says that the believer when he sees someone sick, he should go to that person and he should he should read on them anyway. So role care should come sort of organically it should come from the believer to his brother to his spouse to to different people, it should come from you organically that you see someone that six so you go up to them and you start to read upon them.
Okay? And the prophets lie Selim he also, there's an authentic hadith in Sahih Muslim, or it's not even Abdullah also the law of Thailand who he complained to the Prophet Spicer them that there was some pain that he felt in his body since he became Muslim.
Keep in mind here he became Muslim and he started to feel a particular pain in his body. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Put your hands on the part of your body that hurts and say Bismillah three times, say Bismillah three times and he says say our truth will be or is that Allah? Wa Kurata he mincer Rima, Ajit will have Rusu
Mirza Tila, what karate min SHA Rima, Ajit, what will happen, and he said say that seven times that I seek refuge and Allah subhanaw taala and his power from the evil of what I find and the evil of what I fear. My Ajit, what will have it means from what I fear and what I or what I find and from what I fear. So to say that upon the place that hurts you seven times that's something from the Prophet spice I'm insulting Muslim, or reading certain Fatiha when if you watch the people of the Quran series this was actually the first one right fatty had been used as a cure when the prophets lie Selim
taught the Sahaba to use al Fatiha as a cure to read al Fatiha as a cure. So doing Rokia is good, but the first thing you should do rocky on yourself. The second thing family members should become accustomed to doing rocky upon upon one another.
And thirdly, lastly, if that's not working, then fine at some point, maybe you're going to have to go to someone that has some experience and so on so forth. By the way, any good any true rocky will tell you that little care should start with you first, before you come to me and ask for me to do Rokia on you that you should do it on yourself. But obviously, businesses are made on in accordance with people's superstitions and their vulnerability. So when you go overseas Subhanallah you go to these little hair shops
and you tell them that you have a cold and they say you have a gin and they sit you down and charge you $100 An hour and start reading Quran on you. Alright, people will feast on your insecurities just like shape on feast on your insecurities. People will feast on your insecurities as well. So, so rakia here is praiseworthy, but it'll tell you about him. Allah says the prophets lie some never sought Rokia. Some of the scholars they said that the rock era the prophets lie some is talking about is the evil type of Rokia is the bad type of rakia. Meaning what that there's Rokia according to the Quran and the Sunnah. And there is looking at that's in accordance with other things. So
reading other things you know, put this on yourself where this this terror wheeze, right read this sequence of words, so it appears that are not in accordance with the Quran and the Sunnah, which is definitely haram and also a form of Vidin it's also a form of innovation and can also include Schoodic most of the sequences that people have intact we use and so on so forth, hopefully has shitcan it Okay, so it could be that that the Prophet slicin was talking about however when you combine the two The point is number one never resort to anything other than the Quran other than what the prophets why some legislators in the sunnah to read upon yourself and not to become
accustomed to going to people and saying hey, can you read on me I need someone to read on me I need someone to read on me I need someone to read on me because that represents weakness and vulnerability. Allah subhanaw taala is more powerful than shape on so when the you know when the first thing the first conclusion you come to anytime there's sadness in your life is shape on possessed me and shape on got the best of me you're expressing sort of one Billa that's an evil assumption of Allah subhanaw taala and Bismillah is more powerful than anything that a pawn can do to and that's why the profit slice and I'm also says lead to super shape on also lost by some says
Don't curse the shape on he's who Aslan Yanni or the Berliner c'est la Modine. He's he is and he is cursed anyway, but the prophets license says Don't curse him. Why? Because when you curse him yak boy, he gets bigger headsail zero kilobytes until he becomes bigger than a house he said but instead say Bismillah and when you say Bismillah you're scoring when you say in the name of Allah shape on becomes humiliated in small, when shape one knows that you're obsessed with him and that you think that he's always in control of you and possesses you. Okay, then tripod is proud. Like I got the best of him, I'm in his head. Right but when you say Bismillah and you show your trust in Allah
subhanaw taala Shavon is humiliated because you're still calling upon Allah subhanaw taala he's not able to get a lot out of your head and out of your heart. Okay, so a person should not be obsessed helping out someone read up on me, someone reached out to me read out on yourself. Make dua to Allah yourself. Let Allah subhanaw taala take that away from you take that pain away from you and don't always assume when you mess up or something is wrong, like someone must have put the evil eye on me, someone must have done this to me. Right? It was you know, it was the Israelis it was
because I got a flat tire. You know, it was it was some sort of someone it was either a shape on or it was, you know this person or that person. Take some accountability for yourself and make dua to Allah Subhana Allah to Allah. So you have livestock when when the prophets lie Selim says what a yes to one. Okay. Yep, it's a one here is called authorization now called authorization to cauterize is to burn to burn a piece of your flesh in hopes of stopping an infection from spreading or so on so forth. Now, the province like some allowed that for some people, by the way, in fact, here he allowed it for a baby vocab about the alongside and we actually sent away vocab to us that that was
an ancient treatment especially right when something that when things were going to spread, they would burn the the place of the wounds, so that it wouldn't spread and take over your body. However, what the prophets lie some is referring to here is some people were so paranoid that they opt for the major treatments before they go through the minor treatment.
All right, as soon as something happens to them, they opt for the most dramatic treatment in the world, which represents once again, an insecurity on their part and the prophets lie Selim is warning you not to become so insecure that you go to the most dramatic treatment before you consider the smaller things. So the prophets lie some what he's really discouraging here. What does what does that say about this hadith is he's discouraging people to go to the most drastic treatments before properly evaluating and diagnosing themselves and so on so forth, because that also represents a lack of trust in Allah subhanaw taala like you
show up in the message us or you know what forget about the message. If you have Google Now, you have a little bit of a headache. You have a little bit of a cold and anytime you search Google about anything that you're sick, what is it going to tell you? You're about to die. Go check into a hospital because you have some weird disease that's been spreading over the last four years. You know, you ever had a possible symptom, you know, possible symptoms, so on so forth, and you go, Oh, my God, I have cancer, and I have Ebola, and I have pneumonia all at the same time. Right? And right away, you know, I need surgery. Right? You just get so insecure right away, that you start thinking
of the worst case scenario. So the Prophet sly sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is saying don't go to the worst case scenario right away. Right? Because that also represents a deficiency. Intellect could and finally the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says, Well, are you to play your own? They don't look to the birds. They don't have superstitious behavior they don't look for these omens and so on so forth. Now here's the thing. They're the prophets of Allah he was still on one of the descriptions of him from Anasazi a lot of time and was that the Prophet slice and um, he loved Good Omens but the Prophet slice have never paid attention to bad omens. What does that mean? When so
hey, you know how came this is so beautiful. Hello the prophets lie some was that was an eternal optimist. One so Hey, live November came to negotiate with the profit slice. I'm in her they be. So hey, mean sad, right? It means very easy. In fact, it means easier. So hey, it had an older brother named sad. So So hail is even easier than easy. Right? Like so Haley's piece of cake. Okay, so when it was Sohail coming to to negotiate the profits license also hate he said to the Sahaba Allah Santa so Hey, so this is going to be easy. So the prophets lie some took a good omen from his name Rasulullah sai some said saw Benu Abdullah, he said you're going to Abdullah you're going to become
a bad ally. Anyway, the prophets lice and I'm used to Tate he used to see goodness and good omens in the sense that there are good signs and a person should you know, should always have positive vibes right, like inshallah Hasakah this is a good sign and solid this is, you know, something good is going to happen. Right? Not that you believe that some superstitious behavior just took place. Or you know, you happen to you read a horoscope and it told you because you were born in the month of June, that this is going to happen for you, right because it's no but that's something Allah subhanaw taala sent you a positive sign and you always see positivity, you always see that this is a
good sign Inshallah, from Allah subhanaw taala. And there are over 20, Hadith, even 100 actually compiled over 20 times that the prophets why Selim drew attention to the name of something or drew attention to the to a coincidence, what appears to be a coincidence and southern sha Allah, this means how it is coming. But the Prophet sallallahu I think it was set up, never saw something bad and said, Oh, we're doomed. Right? A black dog entered upon us while we were having a Holika. That means the message is about to burn down.
Right? The prophets, I've never had those evil superstitions, nor did the prophets lysozyme. If he saw the birds going in one direction, say, Okay, we're in trouble now. Right? Because once you start to pay attention to that, what did the what did the Arab start to do this, it actually became a science superstitious behavior. And that exists until that exists until now. Right? People start depending upon certain things to ward off evil elements, and those things are more evil than the evil omens that they're trying to do away with. So you see the blue eye?
That's supposed to ward off hesed. Good luck with that. You're inviting the shape onto your house. Okay, and what did shape on say? What is one of the challenges of shape on to that? How is he going to lead us astray? That label copter under, they're going to cut the ear of the cattle? Okay, you know, people have rabbit's foot and things of that sort. And they, you know, they start to assign powers to this necklace. By the way your wedding ring can become that this isn't my wedding ring. By the way. I used to wear it even before I got married. But anyway, if you have a wedding ring, a wedding ring can become that way. If your wedding ring went down the sink, that means that we're
about to get a divorce. Right? That means it's done. All right. Something terrible is about to happen to our relationship. Okay. You know, subhanAllah I remember a brother, I was in his house and he and he had a gift for his wife. It was their two year anniversary gift. It was a bowl and the bowl fell over and it broke.
And he was like the Hello upwards. Oh, no. And the next day, he told me I had a fight with my wife in the morning. He said that I think it's because of the bowl broke. It's like Allah subhanaw taala sending me a sign like the marriage is gonna fall apart. The prophets lie some never paid any attention to bad omens. So what you have to pay your own means they don't pay attention to bad omens. Why? Robbie him he had to work alone, and they put their full trust in Allah subhanho wa taala. And if you have true to luckily and Allah subhanaw taala the prophets lie Selim says, If you were to have true to what coolin Allah you would be like the birds. They go out in the morning with
their stomachs empty and they come back with their stomachs full depending only upon Allah subhanaw taala
And I want to end with this because this is a beautiful example, at the moment because it laheem Allah to Allah he says that the prophets lie. Some use the example of birds. He said, If you really trusted Allah Subhana Allah, you'd be like the birds because the birds are actually the most hard working of the animal kingdom.
The birds do the most of an affluent as Bob of taking the means to succeed in this world, right of any of the animal kingdom, they are consistent. They, you know, some birds flap their wings over 50 times a second.
Right, they are the most hard working birds, you know, they have to protect themselves from the most scavengers. Right? They do the nests homeless as you know All birds have their homeless they go out in the morning and the profit slice and I'm says booty Kenny Omega t feeble Korea. The blessing of my Alma is in the morning time people that go out to work early in the morning, one of the Sahaba heard the Prophet slice and I'm saying there's Bartok in the morning time. He said, I used to open my business before everyone else in the last time that bless my business, there's bollock in the profits of my business, getting started early. There's Baraka in the morning time. So the birds are
the most hard working and consistent of the animal kingdom. They go out in the morning seeking Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, and they go out, you know, truly my MC Kohana Illa Rana and they're flying in the air these huge beasts of you know some of them big birds, they're flying in the air you think those little wings are what's holding them? No, they flap their wings 50 times but if Allah subhanaw taala doesn't hold them in the air, they will never be able to be held in the air. Allah is the one that's holding them out right now and the Most Merciful holds them in the era last puntata provides them gives them that ability to be able to float and glide through the air. Right when you're on
your plane and you start feeling turbulence realize my human level human. Only Allah is holding your plane if both the engines blow out but Allah subhanaw taala wants that plane to land safely Allah will make you glide and land safely. If Allah subhanaw taala has decreed that plane is going to fall I don't care if it's a triple seven or if it's the most you know, the dream line or whatever it may be. And if it's the best airline in the world, if Allah has decreed it's going to fall it's going to fall because Allah holds them up. However, that doesn't mean you fly without engines, or you trying to take off without engines or take off with one engine because I have to look good in Allah
subhanaw taala the prophets I send them chose the most hard working the word most hardworking animal of the kingdom. And the prophets like Selim says be like the birds. They go out every morning flapping their wings, seeking their sustenance and they trust that Allah Subhana Allah will surely provide for them. And subhanAllah Allah azza wa jal provides for them even when they're weak, Allah subhanaw taala provides for them and I'll end with a funny story and then you know, we'll go to Chef Ramadan inshallah chef Ramadan 70. I'm going to apologize to you in front of everyone because I want to hear from Madonna's voice. I was half asleep when I started the Halacha. So I just remembered
what I was talking about. All right, Ibrahim, Rahim, Allah Tala, a man came to him. And he told in heat and he joined a group that's known as an Motoki loon. Al mutawa Chiune was a deviant group. It was one of the extreme you know, there's, there's there were the health there was healthy throughout history, there's healthy to sell off and unhealthy to sell off, right? Healthy Teskey and unhealthy Tuscania. So this was one of the crazy ones. All right, so he joined this group of people and basically they would just wait for people to bring them food and they would beg they would you know how the even the Buddhist tradition the idea of just holding the bowl and wait for people to fill
