Omar Suleiman – Social Justice EP02

			So I want to come on survivor Council.
		

			Similar to him in Hungary, no problem, you know, salatu salam ala rasulillah, Karim Allah and he
also he ultramarine. So you guys came back for more, I thought I scared you enough last week to make
you not come back.
		

			But we continue in the 40, a different social justice class that we have. And I just want to remind
people that inshallah we have notes being compiled professional notes being compiled from each
class. And if you go to European institute.org, and you subscribe to the to the email list and shot
London every week, they're going to be emailed to you in Shaolin. At the end of this, it'll be
compiled into a manual into a book. And what I realized is we should have called it 100 Hadeeth. On
social justice, because I have over 100 I think, by the time I get through with this, but we'll
still try to categorize at least in 40 chapters. inshallah, as I told you on last week, it starts
		

			off the first I'd say seven classes are about methodology. The last 33 are about specific issues.
But it's important to build this sense this methodology, so that we can properly contextualize and
understand the issues and what what's due upon us when we deal with the issues. So the chapter that
we'll cover today, if you guys remember last week, when we talked about the gravity of injustice, I
said that volume, people commit volume out of a false sense of what does anyone remember?
		

			I said it was one sentence,
		

			a false sense of power. A person commits volume, a person wrongs and oppresses out of a false
feeling a false sense of power. So the narration that I'll share with you is actually a story from a
woman through the Ansari while the allowance data unknown and there are three narrations to in Sahih
Muslim one on one in certain I'd be the word that I'm merging together so that you get the full
story. Okay, so it's three narrations put into one describing the same incident that double Mr.
Ansari says happened to him. I would much rather unsalted on the low tide I knew and he was one of
the noble people of Medina. So he's one of the rich, wealthy companions of the Prophet sallallahu
		

			wasallam, one of the nobles of Medina, he says, Come to avaliable Hold on, and
		

			he starts off this narration. He says that I was once beating a slave. So he's talking about
himself, he says, Come to avaliable gulaman. He says, while I was hitting the slave, he says for
summary to solten in healthy I heard a voice from behind me. And the voice screamed at lamb about
Miss root. No, Obama's rude and when you say lm in the Arabic language, you're not just saying no,
you're saying beware, like Be careful. Oh, Mr. rude. Lamb. Massoud he said Phelim FM is solta mean,
a lot of he said that I couldn't distinguish who was saying that because of the anger in the voice.
You know, when you hear someone's angry voice, it's a different type of voice. So I couldn't even
		

			tell who it was that was saying that to me, because of the anger in the tone.
		

			Obama's route. He says philomela Jana meanie he says that as the voice came close to me as the
person came close to me, I mean, he's engaged in being a slave right now someone can go around and
get the kids from the back and shot what's on one of the board members or someone show. So he says
that while I'm beating the slave, so he's engaged and to the point that he's he's in this act of
rage. He doesn't even recognize the voice behind him. And he says it was an angry voice. So he says
as he came close to me for either Hua Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said, then I
noticed that it was the voice of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam Can you imagine he's in this wild
		

			rage beating a slave and someone is screaming at him saying no album is rude, be careful album is
rude. And then he comes to find out that it's the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam. So what do you
think he's overcome by? What do you think he does? He says for Al Qaeda SOPA mania D. He says that
the whip I dropped the whip from my hand
		

			and the prophets lie Selim looked at me. And he said Erlang other master route, no other master
route. And Allah Akbar o alikum. Inca Allah, Allah, Allah is more capable of doing that to you than
you are to that young man. Allah has more power over you than you have over that man for culture,
who heard only what Sheila said to the Prophet, slice of the eldest Allah, he's free for the sake of
Allah. Immediately he freed him on the spot. For con so the prophet SAW Selim said, Emma Lola
turfan, none of the head can narrow our call. The Mossad cannot, he said
		

			The profits license said had you not freed him, then the fire would have engulfed you or the fire
would have touched you and narration says love the hotkey or the masataka. So the fire would have
consumed you. Had you not freed that man for the sake of Allah. Again, I merged several ahaadeeth
here, three ahadeeth actually. And this narration is narrated throughout the books of Hadith. It's
authentic through many different narrations. And there are many lessons we can take from this. So
I'm gonna start off with this incident in particular, and then we will focus on the statement of the
Prophet sallallahu wasallam. Allah, it has more power over you then you have over that young men,
		

			Allah is more capable of doing that to you than you are of doing that to that young man. Now, there
are a few things to take from this hadith number one, the element say here, the scholar say here
that one of the best ways the most beautiful and humble ways to give advice is to reflect on your
own experience, like Obama's route, is teaching the lesson. And he's embarrassing himself right in
the process. I mean, he's saying something very unpleasant about what he did before he had that
knowledge before he came to know. So he's giving this advice as an old man to all the young people.
A second thing in one narration of all Massoud says at the end of the narration, he says, I never
		

			hit a slave after that, like I never after that incidents. I have I never hit anyone else after
that. So he made Toba, he repented. He learned his lesson from that incident, but he's telling other
people what the prophet sallallahu wasallam said to him. There's another thing we take from this
narration there are several things. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam his voice was so angry
that it was unrecognizable. Think about this as a person living in Medina, how different did the
voice of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam have to be that a man who hears his hope boss, a man
who hears his Holocaust, a man who's accompanying the prophets, lights on them all the time, could
		

			not recognize the voice of the Prophet slicin. And because of the anger of the prophets lie some and
some of the scholars say that you know what the narration really implies that he himself was in such
a fit of anger that he didn't recognize the voice, right? But the point is, the prophets lie,
someone's voice was so angry, and he was so angry that he didn't have that recognition. And that
happens right when you're in that moment. Like there's the famous Hadith of the woman that was in
the graveyard. And she was she was saying inappropriate things she was mourning her someone that she
lost. And she was saying these these these things that are not appropriate to say it's okay to
		

			mourn, but not appropriate to say, and the prophets lysozyme told her to be patient. And she said,
What do you know of my situation? She didn't recognize that it was the voice of the Prophet slice on
him in those moments, but this is the anger and the voice of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam. And
yes, as he showed the Allahu anhu says, woman tecoma enough, see, he taught the prophets lie. Some
never got angry for himself, like the prophets lie. Some would not yell like that, or he would not
show that anger because someone said something to him. But if the boundaries of Allah were
transgressed the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he attacked him Allah would get angry for
		

			Allah subhana wa Tada. And so yes, Our Messengers lightsome got mad. One of the worst portrayals of
the prophets little I send them to me, is to turn the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam into a
passive man, who was passive in the face of violence, passive in the face of aggression, who allowed
oppression to take place in justice to reign in society and not say anything that's not our
messenger slicing them. You can't make Ramadan al Ameen. And you know, the mercy to the world's more
merciful than Allah has made him so when you try to take out of the prophets license character, his
sense of justice, you're doing injustice to the character of the messenger, so a lot of us have
		

			them. Yes, our prophets lie, some raised his voice. Yes, the prophets lie some space became red.
Yes, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam when he got angry for Allah. It was an anger that
terrified the Sahaba not that he would kill people or hit people or spit or curse, but they knew the
severity of what they had done. So seeing the Prophet slice them you imagine the messenger, so I
said, I'm yelling at you in such a loud voice, that you can't even recognize his voice. Another
subtlety we take from this hadith the Prophet slicin said lm Obama's route, no Obama's route. And
this is a very interesting point from the Quran. There are many verses in the Quran lemmo No. And
		

			many of the scholars of Tafseer The first one I believe it was shady Rahim Allah to Allah and I
thought if he pointed out that every time Allah uses the word errorlevel No, the next is a call to
action. So it's the natural response of the believer when someone says to you in a severe way, no,
like beware, think understand that the next if you need to do something serious because this is
serious knowledge for you to act on. So every eye and an eye
		

			uses in the next verse is one of every if Quran that calls you to think and know, the next verse is
one that calls you to action as well. There's another thing, notice that the messenger sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam did not say to him, Why are you hitting him?
		

			Because that's irrelevant to the discussion. One of the worst things that we do when we see volume,
is we think somehow that the volume is justified.
		

			Right? So, you know, one of the Imams was actually sharing this with me, so that I was sitting with
a group of about 20 men, young man, youth. And I asked them if you heard that a man was hitting his
wife. What would you What's the first thing that would come to your mind? What's the first thing you
would say? And like half of them said, What did she do to deserve it?
		

			or What did she do to make him hit her? Not necessarily deserved? But what did he What did she do
for him to hit her? That's not the response of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam. The man could have
the man I mean, for all the prophets, licensees, the man could have done something terrible, this,
this young, slave or servant could have done something horrible. But the prophets lie, some doesn't
care, because your action is unjustified. Take responsibility for your action, it's not even
appropriate to even ask that question or to use that as an excuse. Well, if that's the case, then
don't hit him that hard. Right? That's not the way the prophets lie. Some function. The messengers
		

			lie, some saw that action, the prophets lie, some intervened at that moment. There's another Hadith.
It's actually in Sahih. Muslim, that Romania and Romania was a freed slave. And so he was freed by
by his master. He says that my master commanded me to cut some meat into strips so I was cooking for
my master. And he said that as I was doing that a poor man came to me. So I gave him some of that
meats. When my master came home, he hit me for giving away that that meat to the port. So he said,
so I went to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to complain to him. The prophets lie Selim
called for my master, so he summoned him. And look, did the man do something wrong? Technically,
		

			it's not your food. Right? Technically, why did you give away that's not your food. It doesn't
belong to you didn't pay for it, right? So technically, if you want to twist it that way, but you
could say technically he did something wrong. So the profit slice I said to him, Why did you hit
him?
		

			So he said Yasuda law he gave away the food without asking me like that was my food. And he gave it
away. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said elegible been Akuma wouldn't the answer be for
both of you though? If he gave away your food, if it was your food, wouldn't you share in the reward
them? Like the prophets lie? Some didn't allow, he didn't justify his action, you transgressed you,
you cannot hit you should not act in that way. So that's another very important lesson we take you
know, a lot of times when people start to arbitrary Well, that is pretty far. No, no volume
justifies a will In response, no transcript aggression justifies a transgression in response.
		

			Another thing we take from this heavy when the man heard the profit slice on again, immediately he
dropped, he dropped the whip. Hey, button, the rasulillah out of China's to the profit slice. I'm
like, like, I can't believe I just ignored the profit slice. I'm yelling at me. And he caught me in
this evil deed.
		

			And the prophets lie. Some still told him what?
		

			He said, If you wouldn't have done it, you would have gone to *. Like the prophets lie. Some
didn't let up and say, You know what, okay, Zack.
		

			The prophets lie Selim said, had you not done that? Allah would have consumed you with the fire.
Why? I'm asking you guys to actually answer what's the wisdom in the Prophet slice? I'm saying that
to him after he let the man go.
		

			Sorry, what's the wisdom of the Prophet slice? I'm saying that.
		

			For everyone else, that's one wisdom. So as a as a lesson to others, because he knows and somehow
lovable, Mr. Rude narrates this on his own behalf again, he would go on to narrate the story. So
it's a lesson for everyone else. What else? Yeah.
		

			To teach you to make up for your sins. Absolutely. There's one more that I'm looking for. I don't
know if any of you guys will catch it. Yeah.
		

			To show a luck and give greater punishment than he can. Yes. But but but but there's something
important here. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was telling him that so that he would not
return to the sin so he would not do it to someone else. So he doesn't mistake what the prophets
license on think it's just an isolated incident and that's why I will miss root says after that I
never hit another slave again. I never struck anyone again. right because I understood that so the
Prophet sighs I'm wanted this to be a life changing lesson. A woman's route also in this incident,
he didn't just say like when the profits by some caught him did the prophets I send them actually
		

			tell him to free the sleep.
		

			No, he didn't. He just told them
		

			lm Yaga Massoud be where Obama's rude Think. Think about what you're doing. And when he said he only
went to LA he is free for the sake of Allah. The Prophet sighs I've never told him that he could
have just said stuff that Allah, I'm sorry, right. But he didn't know, by the way that the CAFOD on
the expiation that the prophets lie some sort of anyone hits laudable, who, if anyone was to hit
their servant or to hit their slave, then they would go free. Like the cafardo, the only explanation
was to go free. But still, the prophet sighs on didn't even tell him at that point yet to let them
go. But the men recognized it right away, that I need to release this man, he understood right away
		

			that he had to let this man go free. Many things we can take from them. It's a lesson that in
undoing injustice in undoing injustice, it is not enough to simply seek forgiveness from Allah
subhana wa to add, the essential component of repentance from a volume that's done to someone else
is to undo the injustice to the best of your ability. So if you backbite someone for example, you've
harmed their reputation. The best way or the greatest form of repentance is not just to say stuff
got a lot not even to seek forgiveness from the person though that's a component, but to undo the
damage you did to their reputation, to speak well of them in the in the company of those who spoke
		

			ill of them. So to try to undo that damage, that's an essential component of repentance, when you
actually harm someone. The prophet SAW, Selim also told him, the life ahead cannot, that the fire
would have consumed you. And the Prophet slicin did not tell him for example, that you wouldn't have
entered into paradise because the Prophet spice Allah was using the appropriate warning at the time,
like you need to understand you would have been burned by the fire. It's actually interesting
because the scholars point out a left a left in the Arabic language, it is an Islamic fit, which is
for something to hit your face. Okay, so when the prophets lie, some says the fire would would have
		

			burned your face. Why did he say that to him?
		

			Because he was hitting the man in his face. So you would have faced the same punishment? Well, you
know, even more because Allah Subhana hota, Allah would have carried out the exact same treatment on
you, the way you treated that man, Allah subhanho wa Taala would have treated you, you hit him in
the face, Allah subhanho to Allah would have burned your face. So this is a severe headache. It's a
severe warning. But the main sentence that I want to focus on is Allah is more capable of doing that
to you than you are of doing that to him. The men thought Obama sleuth thought he was in charge, he
felt a sense of power and power can be intoxicating. Because when you have power and power is not
		

			necessarily and this is actually one of the main problems I want you guys to be able to relate to
these are the power is not necessarily settling on a throne. Power is being able to control a
situation with no accountability, being in a situation where, especially when it involves another
power, another party in particular, and you are fully in control of that situation and you don't
have checks, you don't have accountability, that's power. So sometimes as a person grows in their
power, they start to feel a sense of invincibility, that you know what i can get away with stuff. So
I'll start off with a little bit of a little transgression, then I realized I'm getting away with
		

			it. So then I move on to a greater form of bullying. Because I realized I got I got away with that
now. And so you start to actually deceive yourself into thinking, you're in control of the
situation. And the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is reminding us, we have no control over
the situation. We are utterly powerless in the sight of Allah subhanho wa Taala. God has full power,
we have no power, you are unlimited for color in a law, you're all in need of God. Allah doesn't
need you. You need him, you have no power in the situation. So that's why usually when you have a
law firm on a state think about a government on a governing level, because unfortunately, usually
		

			that's where we take oppression to. When someone gets away with a violation. What do they do? They
do more
		

			in an abusive relationship. When someone gets away with abuse, what do they do? They get more
abusive. In a business relationship. When someone gets away with stealing or taking something or
doing something, what do they do? They start to take more. This is who we are as people we start to
unfortunately, we graduate into greater forms of boredom when we've gotten away with smaller forms
of load. Now the scholars also mentioned here that volume has done a cat it has degrees, you know,
double jot refers to higher degrees, like there are double dots of good deeds. dollar cat refers to
lower degrees. So just like good deeds,
		

			Dollar Jackson's have dollar cat. So, volume has dollar cat, there are worst forms of transgression
than others. And the scholars mentioned three, the first one, the worst of the worst types of loans,
the worst types of oppression is to oppress someone who has a great right over you, meaning they
should be receiving your height, they should be receiving your good they should not be receiving
your shuttle they should not be receiving your ill your evil. So, who's the worst person in the
world that you could wrong?
		

			Your mother because if there's anyone who has an unconditional right over you, from human beings,
it's literally the person who produced you, your mother right so it's it's the worst sin in the
sight of Allah subhana wa tada after should in terms of treating as far as treatments concerned,
right to treat your mother to the point that Allah Subhana horchata associated the parents in
obedience while called La Boca, La Villa, yo BYD Danny Asana, that you are that you worship only a
lot and that you show to your parents a lot, put it in the same breath. Why? Because Allah subhanho
to Allah gave you a purpose of existence, and he's the ultimate cause of your existence. But the
		

			medium through which you physically exist is your parents. So they're right upon you is
unconditional. Unless again, unless they are you know, obstructing your worship of Allah subhana wa
tada or it's dangerous to be around them, right. But generally speaking, the worst type of sin are
the worst type of loan is going towards someone that you owe loan towards someone that has a great
right over you. You know, Imam Hassan Busey Rahim, Allah Tada. He said, You know, you just take this
down someone that did good for you, he said that I'm amazed by a person who eats from his brother's
food, who takes from his brother's money, who enjoys his brother's company. But when he's in his
		

			absence, he responds to that with nothing but a sub was shut. Right, he starts to curse him and he
starts to back by, I mean, this person did something for you. When someone gave you hate, gave you
something good, and your response is evil, then it makes the evil worse than the sight of Allah
subhanho wa Taala. So that's the first thing. The first Delica or the first low point of all is to
do is to show volume to someone who has a great right upon you, your mother, your father, and then
it goes from there. Number two, someone beloved to Allah subhanho wa Taala
		

			Min addley. Well, he forgot them to who will help the footsie Allah says whoever, whoever shows
enmity to one of my beloved ones, to one of my earlier
		

			than two who've been held up, I have waged war on him. You are at war with Allah, you imagine that
Allah has waged war upon you, you know, the scholars, because the rest of the Hadith goes on, well,
not to LA or mdbc, humble ilimitado to LA and so on that last point I started mentioning, that my
servant comes close to me with the obligatory deeds and then it comes close to me with an elephant
with the voluntary deeds. You know, one of the scholars of Hadith he said that notice Allah started
off with this because even if you do follow, then you do not laugh. If you do obligatory good deeds
and voluntary good deeds, but you harmed one of the laws earlier. It'll negate all of that, because
		

			we already talked about that personal sins versus Sins of oppression. So you could do all the
voluntary good deeds in the world, but if you've committed loaded them towards one of his odr,
towards someone that's beloved to him, and the tricky part of it in Islam is that no one knows who
the Odia are.
		

			It's we don't like have that class. They are secret of the hidden amongst the last creation. You
know, you could be saying things about them or doing things about or you know, harming them. And you
don't know who these people really are. That person might be someone beloved to Allah Subhana ones
and my teachers have had some he shared with us the last week and it literally it was such a
powerful statement. He shared a statement from Yahoo, Eben Marine, Rahim Allah tala, that sometimes
we curse people, and they have settled under the throne of Allah 200 years ago.
		

			Meaning what like you're cursing someone who passed away, you're saying something bad about someone
who passed away and that person is already settled under the throne of God, and you're talking ill
of them. And yet even Marines that sometimes we're talking about that, you know, we start debating
the past and stuff like that you're cursing people and they're already settled under the throne of
Allah subhanaw taala. Like, watch out. Think about who you're talking to. When you write something
online and you abuse someone, you say something harmful to someone or write something harmful. That
person might appear to be semi religious. But what about that woman designer that that gave water to
		

			the thirsty dog was already of Allah in some capacity right? You have no idea that person might be
already from ODF the loved ones to Allah subhanaw taala
		

			You don't want a lot of waging war on you. So what's the solution? Don't commit volunteer anybody.
You don't know which one which ones of them because it's egregious to do it to an animal or to
something that's not even human. And again, what we said last week, even if it's a disbeliever, that
calls upon the loss of Hannah Tirana harmed, so don't harm the idea of Allah, be careful because it
might be someone righteous, that's at the receiving end of your abuse, and you have no idea that
they're righteous. So that's number two. Number three, and this is the worse. This is the absolute
worst from the double cats from the degrees of avoided and that is to harm someone who has no
		

			protector except Allah.
		

			mela Nasir ilaha illAllah a person who has no protector mandla nos ilaha illAllah, a person who has
no protector except Allah. So the orphans of the week, the slaves, all of these things, basically
people that are already disadvantaged, they're not protected in society, and you take advantage of
their vulnerability, and you add to their vulnerability Mendler Nasir Allahu Allah, why? Because
it's not a fair fight already. It's all Allah subhanaw taala already puts you in a more advantaged
situation and you chose to use your advantage to further put that disadvantaged person in
disadvantage and advance yourself. Like it wasn't enough that you were already okay and that that
		

			person wasn't you had to make it even worse and compound their vulnerability. How do you expect from
Allah? How do you expect mercy from Allah, if this is how you're acting? So when you harm someone
who's at your mercy, hence the Hadith about the slave, this man beating on his slave mercilessly,
the prophets lie Selim saying Allah is more capable of doing that to you than you are of doing that
to him. And there's some powerful lessons we can learn from this. You guys know that hadith of NSR,
the Allahu taala. And Anna symptomatic was taken to the prophets license to be a hardened to be a
servant, he was given to the Prophet slice lm by his mother to serve Him. And Anna saw the law and
		

			who says I serve the profits lice alum for 10 years, some narration say nine but most of them say
10. So nine or 10 years I serve the prophets license for a decade. He said one law he he never wants
to hit me. He never once raised his voice on me. He never once told me why didn't you do this? or
Why did you do that? And he said there was just this one time where the prophets lie some sent me on
an errand and I got busy on the way and I started playing with some other kids and the Prophet
slicin came and he sat down and he smiled at me and he basically gave me the look like Why didn't
you do what you know Didn't you have something to do wasn't there an errand that you are supposed to
		

			do that was the most in 10 years in a decade with the profit slice on them and you know it should be
noted here he says he never even said off to me like he never the profit slice I'm did not admonish
me one bit
		

			and he was sent as a servant he was a hardened to the profit slice um, he technically wasn't a kid
to him. Now, what's interesting here is that the prophets lie some of them. You know, Anna says, can
also lie some accent and nasty Hello got heat. Here the prophets lie some had the best character.
After the Prophet slicin passed away on us used to see him in his dream every single night. He loved
he adored the messenger slice of them and he lived while the alarm is one of the last habit of
Passover, and he adored the Prophet sallallahu wasallam just the way the Prophet slicin treated him.
Now here's the thing. Did the prophets lysozyme ever admonish his own children? Yes.
		

			So some of the scholars actually mentioned the fear of the prophets lie some of wronging Ennis in
particular, because he's a hardened he was sent as a hardened so he's extremely vulnerable and the
prophets lie some shows him even more excellent prophets. I've never hit his children. But you can
find some Hadith of the prophets lie some admonishing his children very lightly. You don't see it
without us all the a lot of time I know he's a hardened to the Prophet sallallahu wasallam. And so
that's why I've been above the line. He says, for example, that the companions were more afraid of
wronging the orphans than their own children.
		

			They came from a society of criminality, a team where people would consume the wealth of the orphan
and harm the orphan and take advantage of the orphan. Now with all of the the IRS and the Hadith,
about taking care of the orphan, even above the law, and who said literally, there will be too
afraid to eat from their food, like if they if they took an orphan children, they'd be too afraid to
mix their food or to take anything from their wealth. Like they went to the extreme in protecting
the orphans. Now, why because this person learnosity Allahu Allah, Allah, he has no protector except
the law he's at. He's at my mercy. I could do so much to him or to her, but I don't. And that's the
		

			point. A lot could do so much to me, but I don't want him to. I want him to show me it's, you know,
an exceeding level of mercy. So the Sahaba had more fear when they did that. Likewise, when you
think about when the prophet SAW it,
		

			says fear along with your spouse's fear along with your spouse's. And you know, when a man wrongs
his wife or a woman wrongs her husband. But let's say that the other person is at complete, you
know, they have like horrible circumstances. So a man is abusing his wife, but she needs him for
papers or she needs him for immigration purposes, or she's completely dependent. So if something
happens, we see the situation something happens. You know, she's she's afraid of what would come
outside of that marriage. So a man takes advantage of that, that happens all the time, takes
advantage of the situation and continues to abuse and abuse and abuse and traps and in prisons, that
		

			person is engaging in the filthiest type of load, the filthiest type of oppression, because this
person is at your mercy and you know it so you take advantage of that. Right? And that's what Allah
subhanaw taala hates the most. And Allah says in Surah Nisa, for example, after you know, after in a
situation where a marriage has even come to an end, and there's a situation of new shoes of
rebellion or on the part of the wife lost parents are assessed for in a partner come, Fela taboo or
la hiddenness Avila in Allaha Cana Ali and Kabira if they returned to you, do not do not pursue
further aggression or further means against them. In the law, ie and a law is higher, more exalted,
		

			forever exalted, and forever great and all mighty, like reminding you Hey, just because you can,
don't, don't just because you feel like you have that opportunity to carry out that oppression.
Without cert without accountability. Don't so we see that as well. Finally, with, with the situation
with or without, or the amount of time and money you know, remember without all the low on who got
into trouble because he said, he called the law, the law and we have nosode that are son of a black
woman.
		

			And the prophets lie Selim told him I have to be only did you curse him? Or did you insult him with
his mother? And the Prophet slicin said you're a man with with jelly inside of you with ignorance
inside of you. And um, without was so afraid of that, that he wouldn't put his face on the ground
and told me not to step on his face. May Allah be pleased with them both. He was so terrified by the
warning of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam. Listen to this hadith Maduro The law says, I saw a
Buddha or the allowance Allah and who wearing a nice like a fancy board like a garment. And I saw
his servant wearing the exact same board. So I said,
		

			Yeah, I was like, why don't you take his like, why are you wearing the same thing as him like it
looks it looked odd, it looked awkward. You're both wearing the exact same clothes. You have a nice
suit. And he has a nice suit, like what's going on here. So without all the low tide, Andrew said,
There was once a coral between me and another man whose mother was not an Arab, and I called her bad
name. So he didn't say the name of Bella. In this narration. He says once I got into it with one of
the companions, and his mother was not an Arab. So I said something that the man complained to me
about complained about me to the profit slice. And the profit slice Adam said, Did you abuse so and
		

			so? And I said, Yes. He said, Did you call his mother bad names? I said, Yes. He said, you still
have the traits of ignorance inside of you. So I said to the prophets, I sound Do I still have God
inside of me even in my old age? And the prophets license said yes. And then the prophets lie. Selim
mentioned that the servants are your brothers. And Allah has put them under your command. And on top
of that the law was freed but he's undoing the jalila from a Buddha's head. Right. And inside of he
said, those servants are your brothers, who Allah put under your commands. They are your brother's
Chronicle, they're your brothers. And a lot, simply put them under your care. So he said, so the one
		

			under whose hand Allah has put his brother should feed him of what he eats and give him of what are
dressing you know, give him to dress with with what he dresses himself, and should not ask him to do
a thing beyond his capacity. And if he asked him to do something that's burdensome, then he should
assist him in that task. And this is Ethan Bahati. So the prophets I'm saying, Look, they're your
brothers and a lot put them under your care a lot put them in your protection, that's all there are
trust that Allah put in your care. Think about that. Right. So without took it to the extent again,
he did not wear anything except that a servant were the same thing eat anything except the servant
		

			ate the exact same thing. So it's to show you once again someone is under your protection, someone's
under your care, or someone's in a place where they're vulnerable, and you are in power, then you
should fear a loss of handling to add even more your fear of a loss that doesn't mean wrong, your
children and then treat the orphans well, right, or beat people up that are not you know, like that
are equal to you know, it means that you should be especially afraid of committing volume of
wronging someone who has no protector except the loss and hands on as someone who's already in a
state of vulnerability. So I'm gonna give you guys a famous story, but I want
		

			Want you to focus on some of the nuances of it? And I realized like almost the top of the line who
will come up in every single halaqa because he is a thorough he's a man who distinguishes between
truth and falsehood a man of justice
		

			in the time of the law of Thailand who Egypt was ruled by Ahmed bin Asante, Aloha. So under the life
of Omar Ahmed have been asked was the governor of Egypt and Egypt was famous for its horse racing.
So Egypt at that time, they used to be known in the you know, in the Muslim world, for the place
where horse racing would take place. So they would hold all their competitions and all that type of
stuff. So the son of the governor, the son of the Amir, who was the immediate
		

			entrepreneur lost his son named Mohammed Mohammed, the son of Amazonas was known to be a horseman,
so he used to race and used to beat everybody. So they bring all the horsemen and he, you know, take
them out. And so this time he raised with a cop, you know, a coptics. So this was a Christian slave
that lived in Egypt.
		

			Okay, a Christian slave that lived in Egypt. So talk about disadvantage, right? He's not Muslim,
he's, he's a slave in that society. I mean, this is a really, really harsh situation for him to be
in. And they're racing and everyone expects the son of Amara asked when Mohammed the son of Ahmed
last one because he always wins. This man gets on the horse and he beats him.
		

			And it was humiliating to Mohammed the son of armour. menos. So he gets off of his horse, and he
takes his whip, and he says, a test bikuni Are you going to beat me while acromion Minamata Dean, I
am the son of the noble ones, the guided ones, the believing ones, and he pops them right on his
head with a whip.
		

			So he not only hit him, but he also boasted, you know who I am, you know who my dad is, you know,
who might you know where I come from. Now, this man was hurt by that he was embarrassed. This took
place in front of everybody. Right? It wasn't just the physical harm here. It was just a hit. But it
took place in front of everyone. It was humiliating. So he asked some of the people he said, What do
you think I should do? They said, well, you should raise the issue to the allowance. Ahmad would not
let that go. Like even they know that even though you're a Christian, and even though he's the son
of almost beloved companion and all that, he would not let that go. So he makes a trip all the way
		

			to Medina just to complain. So I'm gonna hop out of the allowance and I'm home about this man. So
Amaro the law of China and who sees him, he tells all about what happened under the law and who
writes a letter to us and to our son. And he dispatches a messenger. Now this isn't like he sent a
text message, like I'm gonna text Tom Ross right now. So we need to talk. Like he actually sends a
letter to Egypt, from Medina. And the letter says, when you get this letter, I don't care what
you're doing, leave your post and come to me. Like this is putting the online vulnerability now like
over this man, right? Leave your post and come to me and bring your son with you to I want both of
		

			you here. So Anna cinematical the law No. He says that Amaro de la and who provided accommodations
for this Christian man literally gave him a place to stay took care of him fed him until, I mean,
we're talking about months until this until Ahmed and his son come takes care of him. And Anna says
that we were sitting with our model, the allowance
		

			and our mental hot entrepreneur class, rode in and Ahmed was a big man. So Amaro the law and when he
saw him, he immediately looked behind him to see if the sun was with him. That's how big Ahmed was.
So he saw his son and almost did not get in Makkah. lemahieu He didn't even speak to him. Almost
that enormous Lee, where's the Egyptian man?
		

			Like, let's settle this. Now. We can't wait. There's no time for courtesies or you know, or
congratulations on taking Egypt and how's it going over there? And let me check up on the oma.
Where's the Egyptian guy? Where's the where's the Christian man that complaint? All Metal the 11
brings him Amaro, the Allahu anhu says Dona Dora says behind you is my stick.
		

			I'm not sure how to stick his head behind you is my stick. He says fondly beha yBnL Academy. So go
ahead and hit the son of the nobles. Using the same language, if you could, I mean, the son of the
novel said go ahead and hit him. Like he hit you. So the people all assembled to watch this the same
thing, right? You humiliated that man in public. Now you're being humiliated in front of everybody
in Medina, and the exact same way, go ahead and hit him. I don't care who you are, or who you
wronged like you thought at that moment that you could get away with that who's gonna hold you
accountable, right. You're the son of the governor. I mean, who's gonna hold you accountable? So he
		

			said, Go ahead.
		

			We'll be having an upcoming hit the hit the son of the nobles. So he did it. He actually picked up
the stick and he popped Mohammed nos on the head. And then Amaro the law and who says agenda and
Asana it.
		

			Now put it on the bald head of arm.
		

			That's what he says, I put the stick on the bald head of, well, what did our eyes do? He didn't hit
him. He didn't have anything to do with it. So the man says, you know, yeah, I mean, he says that I
hit the one who hit me like this is why should I hit him, I already hit the guy who hit me. And
listen to what almost Omar says, Now Baba kochava illa de sol, Bonnie holla.
		

			This person did not hit you except by the power or the soul bond the royalty of that person.
		

			He didn't say hit him. He said just put the stick on his head. literally put it on his head to show
him that this is unacceptable. Omar was not just concerned with getting that man's particular right
back to send the message. The system that you've set up to where your son felt like he could do
that. You need to be humiliated as well. So I'm gonna bring us a great companion of the prophets lie
some the ruler of Egypt. And this Christian man, his Christian slave is putting the stick on his
head in front of everybody in Medina. Now if you're that man, what are you thinking? Like when I get
back to Egypt? What's going to happen?
		

			Right, there's a chance that they might summon me. So I'm going to photography Allahu taala. And he
he said to the Coptic, he said, Go back home and peace. And he assigned to him a bodyguard. And he
said, if anybody ever does anything to you again, write me a letter.
		

			Omar didn't do anything else. He said, write me a letter, and I'll take care of it. Then look at
what Omar said. He looked at me. And he says AR AR ammo. He said, Oh, um, he says Manchester back to
NASA. wakad. What a debt from Omaha to Aurora. Since when do you enslave people when their mothers
gave birth to them free?
		

			Since when do you enslave people and their mother's game gave birth to them? and freedom. Right? He
He's so upset. Why? Because it's not just the volume. It's the fact that he felt like he was
unaccountable. And he's living out what the prophets lie Selim said, Allah can do that to you.
Finally, just a few points that the scholars point out that Allah Subhana Allah with lolland with
the one who who's an oppressor of the proud oppressor, the arrogant oppressor, Allah subhanho to
Allah would humiliate them when they try to humiliate others. So we see for example, for their own
for their own every one of his mavado every one of his transgressions came back to him. When Musa
		

			alayhis salaam came to him, he mocked Musa alayhis salaam and he called them disfigured. He said,
Look at his disfigurements. Look at his list. Look at him. He doesn't even know how to talk
properly. He mocked Musashi his salon, and he told Musashi Salaam that I'm going to make an example
out of you. So he mocked him and he said, I'm going to make an example out of you Allah subhana wa
tada responded, that you would live mock that Allah would make an example out of him. That allowed
make an example out of him to be mocked, and he would be from the MacBook, he would be from the
disfigured in the hereafter. He would burn people alive the punishment of the what used to do to the
		

			people used to burn them alive. And I lost count of time mentions in the Quran, that frown is being
burned as we speak.
		

			And now you're alone and they have booklets and washi every morning and every night for their own is
being burned. And on the Day of Judgment, Allah subhanaw taala would tell them to enter into the
real fire into the full effect of hellfire. Just as the he used to burn people it came back to him.
abraha said when he came from Yemen, he said that I'm going to tear the cat of a stone by stone with
an army of elephants. Allah subhanho wa Taala did what he sent an army of birds to take off his army
stone by stone. It all came back to them. And Allah mentions to us now. Allah mentions for example,
that whoever exposes his brother, whoever exposes his bread now we nomen Sutra muslimah sobre la
		

			Yama, whoever covers up the faults of his brother Allah will cover cover up his faults on David
judgment. Whoever exposes his brother, father who Allah Subhana Allah to Allah will expose him
Hatter Fie Beatty, even if Allah exposes them in his home, even if Allah humiliates him even if he's
hiding in his home level, humiliate that person for humiliating someone else. So when a person
thinks they have power, and they take advantage of the vulnerable, Allah subhanaw taala shows them a
true vulnerability looks like on the other hand, when we see the most vulnerable in society, and
they can do nothing for us and we still take it upon ourselves to ensure their well being and to put
		

			them in a place of advantage. Allah subhanho wa Taala would not allow
		

			I was to feel vulnerable on the Day of Judgment. And that's the ultimate reward. So we have no
there's nothing that we get from this world benefit from this world from taking care of these
people. No one can check me in this situation, right? I don't have anyone holding me accountable.
But Allah Subhana Allah would take care of, we ask Allah subhanaw taala to protect us from wronging
anyone else we ask Allah Subhana Allah to not let us be deceived by our own fools by our own selves,
to think that we have any sense of power in this world. We asked Allah subhanaw taala to use any
advantage that he gave to us for good for height, we ask Allah subhanaw taala to place us in the
		

			service of those who are wronged and not to make us amongst those who wronged them. We ask Allah
subhanho wa Taala that if there is any wrongdoing we have done in this world, that he shows it to us
that we may repent for it, and that he does not hold us accountable on the Day of Judgment for those
that were not apparent to us. I mean, does that come along later on? We can check it out. I'll see
you all next week. But I'll take questions from those of you that are here but we can cut the
