			If you walk into a place and you see someone on a pulpit that denotes that they probably have some
level of authority in that place. Now in this life, there are those who judge with integrity, but
they're not seeking any elevation or personal gain. And there are those who don't seek out positions
of leadership, but it comes to them. And when it does, they act with a great sense of amount of
responsibility. And then there are those that establish relationships with others, but they have no
ulterior motives to seek some sort of access or high place here. And Allah azza wa jal says till
canderel, Africa, Nigeria, I do have a little Adina law you read una aloo unfill Ali Willa facade
		
00:00:40 --> 00:01:12
			when people to the Moroccan This is the ultimate abode being the hereafter. We reserve it for those
who seek neither elevation meaning for tyranny, nor do they see corruption on earth. And the best
end is for the people of taqwa, the people of piety. And that's why reciting, Jesus, the son of Mary
was narrated to have said pull that in a little while there enough dunya home as Harbin manera
VideoMic piano, glad tidings to those that walk humbly on this earth. They are inheritors of pulpits
on the Day of Judgment.
		
00:01:22 --> 00:02:02
			There are levels of elevation on the day of judgment that denote some sort of distinction. While
many are familiar with manava being the pulpits of light, which we'll get to, there are other levels
before that. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that there are three people who will be
spared from the shock of that day, and there'll be spirit from the HeyStop meaning from actually
being held accountable. And he sets a lifetime that they're going to be on cathedra and min misc
which is like a hill of musk until Allah finishes holding everyone else accountable. So imagine
these people that are standing on hills of musk, and they're off to the side during an after the
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:44
			Aesop after the accountability. And Allah subhana huzzah enters them into Paradise after it's all
done. The prophets lysozyme said that these three people are a man who recites the Quran sincerely
seeking the pleasure of Allah. And he guides the people with it, and they are pleased with him. So
this is a person who's truly Al Quran from the people of Quran. Then a dari, who is a preacher that
calls people to the five prayers, again, seeking the pleasure of Allah subhana hazzan. And then you
have a servant that sets things right between himself and his Lord, and between himself and those
that are entrusted to him. So the underlying theme here is that the reciter of Iran and the preacher
		
00:02:44 --> 00:03:22
			they could technically seek elevation in this world, but they're doing it only for Allah subhanaw
taala and the person who has an upper hand in a relationship could easily transgress, but he doesn't
out of fear of Allah subhana wa Tada. On the other hand, the most hated people are the tyrants and
they are of varying types and Allah subhanaw taala is not going to wait until the questioning to
make his this day known for them. The prophets lie Selim said, You are Sharon which can be ruined al
Jabbar Runa Yamato piano, he sorted out that the arrogance and the tyrants will be resurrected on
the Day of Judgment, like tiny little atoms, they're not even ants, and they're small people like
		
00:03:22 --> 00:04:05
			they actually are. And the prophets lie. Some said that people will trample upon them due to their
disgrace before Allah azza wa jal. On the other hand, you look and you see these elevated platforms
of light. Who did they belong to? The prophets lie Selim said, in the Luxor cleaner in the lie,
Allah man Abirami nor anumita Weimer, Verily, those who were just will be in the presence of Allah
upon pulpits of light, near the right hand of the Most Merciful. What qilta de Amin and the Prophet
saw some said both of his hands are right, and that there is no deficiency. So who are these people?
Are they just leaders of nations? No, he said, So Lai Salam Alladhina Yara de lune if he hooked me
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:45
			him, what led him one our view that these are people who practice justice, in their judgments, with
their families, and in all that they did whoever was entrusted to them. And Allah knows when someone
is in a position to judge they have immense power sometimes unchecked. So when they use it, right,
what does Allah do, he gives them an immense pulpit and position on the day of judgment that
everyone can admire. All the while, the tyrants are being trampled, and the people of Justice are
being raised up on these platforms. Now this is someone who judged with justice with the people and
stayed mindful of Allah. The other category of those who have monopolies, pulpits also includes the
		
00:04:45 --> 00:05:00
			relationship of people to people. But this one is laced not with justice, but with the love for
Allah subhanaw taala. And to appreciate this category, think of people fighting each other on the
day of judgment and there
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:37
			assigning blame to one another. Why? Because they supported each other and transgression. So they're
literally asking Allah show me that person who led me astray. So I can trample him under my feet. I
want to jump on that person and beat them up because of what they did. And they're shouting out and
regret Attila Yoma, it didn't download the Bible and I do Allah Subhana Allah says, close friends,
close friends who are going to be enemies to each other on that day except for the pious, and
they're putting their fists in their mouths out of nervousness, and they're saying, Yeah, well you
lead to lead to Neelam attack at Fudan and Halina. I wish I never took that person as a friend. So
		
00:05:37 --> 00:06:18
			while these people are quarreling and trying to stomp on each other and denouncing one another and
yelling at each other for leading each other away from Allah subhanaw taala. Then you have these
pulpits of light and Allah calls out where are and what to have Munna feeds at it. The human abdomen
knows who we are, where are those people that loved each other, for my sake, they have pulpits of
light yellow beetle who and who are shahada, those people that love each other for the sake of my
majesty, that are on these pulpits of light, they're going to be admired by even the prophets and
the martyrs. And in one narration, the companions said, tell us you have a sort of Allah, Who are
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:59
			these people. And so these are people who love one another for the sake of Allah. They come from
faraway lands, they have no family ties, I swear by Allah, their faces will glow and they will be
sitting on these pulpits of light. And Allah will put light on their faces and light on their
garments, and they will have no fear when the other people have fear, and they will have no grief
when the other people are grieving. And then the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam recited Allah
in earlier Allah. Now finale himolla Camilla zone, behold, verily, as for the friends of Allah, they
have no fear, nor shall they grieve. So the pulpits of light in the hereafter are for those who
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:23
			didn't seek prominence or position in this life, nor did they betrayed the trust of leadership that
was given to them for the sake of some worldly gain, nor did they maintain relationships with people
with some lowly worldly motives. These were people that loved and lead with the light of Allah. And
so what is Allah doing? He's elevating them with that light in a way that even the prophets and the
martyrs would admire them on the day.
