00:00:05 --> 00:00:15
			As-Salaamu Alaikum
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:16
			Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu.
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			I want to welcome
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:32
			you
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:36
			all to the episode 150 of the series
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:36
			The First.
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:38
			Alhamdulillah warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu.
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:40
			It's been years and we get to this
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:43
			point now where we've been blessed to cover
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			a multitude of companions of the Prophet ﷺ
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:49
			and to see the Prophet ﷺ through multiple
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:50
			perspectives in the process.
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:53
			And we ask Allah ﷻ to gather us
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:55
			with all of the companions of the Prophet
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:58
			ﷺ, with his family and with him ﷺ,
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:00
			Allahumma ameen.
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:04
			And inshaAllah tonight we'll mark the end of
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:05
			this season of The First.
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:08
			So we will be putting it on pause
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			until Ramadan, inshaAllah ta'ala, and we will
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:11
			resume The First after Ramadan.
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:13
			I will be taking a break from The
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:15
			First, inshaAllah ta'ala, and there will be
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:17
			another series that will begin, bi-idhnillahi ta
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:19
			'ala, in a couple of weeks that is
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:23
			tied to this one, inshaAllah ta'ala, that
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:27
			bi-idhnillah will pivot but not entirely from
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:28
			the concept of The First.
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:30
			And so we ask Allah ﷻ for tawfeeq
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:31
			in all of that, Allahumma ameen.
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:34
			And you can guess what the series is.
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			So whenever you see the trailer, you'll go,
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			oh okay, that's what he meant, inshaAllah ta
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:37
			'ala.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:38
			You see an announcement, you'll say that's what
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:38
			he meant.
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:43
			We've been talking about these different companions that
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			came to know the Prophet ﷺ from different
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:48
			parts of the world, their migration to the
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			Prophet ﷺ, especially as it relates to now
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:53
			Amul Wufud, the year of the delegation.
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:56
			And we talked about that special companion, a
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			group of companions in fact, from Al-Yaman,
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:01
			and we talked about Jarir ibn Abdillah ﷺ.
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:06
			And tonight, it's befitting that episode 150, we
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:09
			talk about the Palestinian companion, the Palestinian Sahabi,
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:12
			and I'm going to explain exactly what I
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:14
			mean by that because I already know that
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			some people are going to say, don't say
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:19
			Palestinian about a companion, you know, Palestine was
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			later on and things of that sort.
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:24
			But I actually start with that description of
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:26
			the Sahabi because Imam al-Zahabi ﷺ writes
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:30
			the most monumental collection of biographies about the
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32
			companions of the Prophet ﷺ.
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:34
			And he wrote his book, Sir al-Alam
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:37
			an-Nubula, in the 1300s, refers to the
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:38
			companion this way.
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:44
			His name, Sahibu Rasulillahi ﷺ Abu Ruqayya Tamim
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:49
			ibn Aus ibn Kharijah ibn Saudi ibn Jadhimah
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:51
			al-Lakhmi al-Falastini.
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:53
			So this is actually his title in Sir
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:54
			al-Alam an-Nubula.
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:59
			Tamim al-Dari Abu Ruqayya ﷺ and Imam
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:01
			al-Zahabi refers to him as al-Falastini,
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:06
			the Palestinian companion, therefore it goes even back
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:09
			to the 1300s where you find our scholars
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:11
			referring to him in such a way.
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:15
			And it's notable to see that recognition or
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:17
			to see a man that's distinguished by coming
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:20
			to the Prophet ﷺ from the land of
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:21
			Palestine.
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:25
			One of the things that's absolutely incredible about
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:27
			the riwayat, the narrations where the Prophet ﷺ
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:30
			is praising the people of Ash-Sham or
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:33
			praising the Muslims of Ash-Sham specifically or
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:35
			praising the Muslims of Yemen or praising the
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:38
			Muslims around Masjid al-Aqsa is that none
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:40
			of those people, as far as the groups
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:41
			were concerned, had become Muslim yet.
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:43
			So the Prophet ﷺ was making a future
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:46
			projection about those people as they embraced Islam.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:50
			Okay, because those areas had not yet entered
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:53
			into Islam, however we find these ambassadors that
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:55
			are coming from that area that will be
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:59
			the initial carriers of Islam to those areas.
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:03
			And Tamim ibn Aus al-Dari ﷺ, literally
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:05
			by the way, al-Tamimi, when you see
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:08
			that name in Palestine, it is from his
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:08
			descendants.
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:10
			So he has a large number of descendants
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:13
			in Palestine, may Allah ﷻ free it in
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:14
			its entirety, Allahumma ameen.
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:18
			And that is an ascription to the companion
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:22
			of the Prophet ﷺ, Tamim al-Dari ﷺ.
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:26
			Now, what is sort of his story and
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:27
			how does he come into the life of
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:29
			the Prophet ﷺ and how does he rise
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:31
			in the ranks of the Messenger of Allah
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:32
			ﷺ?
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:37
			Tamim was a Palestinian Christian, a Palestinian Christian.
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:41
			And he lived under, obviously being in Ash
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:42
			-Sham, under the Roman Empire.
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:45
			And so he practiced, it appears to be,
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:49
			he practiced the Christianity that was in alignment
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:51
			with what the Roman Empire was allowing.
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:53
			And obviously, you know, the Roman Empire was
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:57
			trying to standardize Nicene Creed and so Western
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			Christianity at that time is being standardized throughout
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:02
			its territories and he lives in that reality.
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:06
			Now he himself was not necessarily, he wasn't
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:10
			a priest, he wasn't looked at as one
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:14
			of the preachers from Ahlul Kitab.
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:17
			His actual profession was that he was a
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:18
			well-traveled merchant.
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:20
			So he was someone that used to lead
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:23
			caravans in different parts of the world and
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:25
			he interacted with, in the process of being
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:27
			someone who would buy and sell, he interacted
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29
			with some of the Arabs that were coming
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:32
			from the area of the Prophet ﷺ, from
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:38
			Mecca in particular, in the summer travel where
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:40
			they would come with their caravans and they
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:42
			would trade with the people of Ash-Sham.
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:46
			So he himself, being an Arab Christian that
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:48
			lives under the control of the Roman Empire,
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:51
			is interacting with them and he's getting the
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:54
			news of what's happening in Mecca and Medina
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:55
			through them, right?
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:59
			So his curiosity is being sparked through those
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:02
			ambassadors, through those merchants that he's dealing with
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:04
			in the process of being a merchant himself.
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:08
			And in that, he's also a highly literate
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:11
			and well-read man and someone who's known
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:13
			to be scholarly, a truth seeker.
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:15
			He's someone who's looking for the truth, he's
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:17
			someone who takes great interest in his religion.
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:22
			So he's a practicing Christian and someone who
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:24
			knows the scripture, he knows the Torah, he
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:26
			knows the Injil as it exists in its
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:30
			current forms, and before he really gets a
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:32
			deeper understanding of what the Prophet ﷺ represents,
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:36
			his assumption is that this is just another
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:40
			paganistic type of religion that's arising out of
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:41
			all of the idol worship that's happening in
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:42
			the region at the time.
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:46
			But he's starting to piece together through the
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:49
			descriptions of the people that this is a
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:52
			man ﷺ who's a descendant of Ibrahim ﷺ,
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:54
			that this is a man who is a
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:57
			descendant of Ismail ﷺ, that he's calling to
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:00
			Tawheed, that he's calling to monotheism, that he's
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:03
			affirming Isa ﷺ, that he's affirming the position
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:06
			of Jesus ﷺ, which is very different than,
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:08
			for example, the well-known Jewish tribes that
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:10
			had settled in Medina, that were not affirming
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:11
			Christ.
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:12
			So this is very interesting.
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:15
			So you have a Prophet following in the
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:18
			lineage of Ibrahim ﷺ, who affirms Christ, right?
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:20
			I mean, just like the surprise of Najashi
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:24
			ﷺ in Abyssinia, who affirms Christ, and he
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:26
			affirms the Prophets of the Book, and he
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:29
			affirms the Torah and the Injil, sounds very
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:29
			interesting.
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:33
			And so he's piecing together who the Prophet
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:37
			ﷺ is, and what he's calling to, and
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:39
			in that process, his desire to learn the
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:43
			truth is growing, and he's studying deeper into
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:44
			what Islam actually is.
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:46
			Now subhanAllah, you'll find the ayah, and it's
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:49
			important to mention here, so you can categorize
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:51
			him a bit, in Surah Ar-Ra'd, where
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:54
			Allah ﷻ says, وَمَنْ عِنْدَهُ عِلْمُ الْكِتَابُ, وَمَنْ
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:59
			عِنْدَهُ عِلْمُ الْكِتَابُ, which is verse 45, in
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:01
			Surah Ar-Ra'd, where Allah ﷻ says, and
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:03
			those who have the knowledge of the Book.
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:07
			Qatada ﷺ says, this is referring to Salman
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:10
			al-Farisi, رضي الله تعالى عنه, the well
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:13
			-known truth seeker, obviously, who left his religion
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:18
			of al-Majusiya, right, Zoroastrianism, to go through
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:20
			Christianity and eventually arrive at the Prophet ﷺ,
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:22
			so he said it's referring to Salman al
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:25
			-Farisi and Abdullah ibn Salam, رضي الله تعالى
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:27
			عنه, who was the chief rabbi of Medina.
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:30
			Talk about giving up your post and your
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:32
			prestige for the truth, right, and this is,
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:34
			there's a common thread here, it's not just
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:37
			recognizing the truth, it's willing to endure the
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:39
			consequences of recognition of that truth, like Salman,
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:41
			رضي الله تعالى عنه, who left the comfort
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:43
			of his home in Persia, went through all
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:45
			of that, went through torture, slavery, to arrive
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:46
			at the Prophet ﷺ.
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:49
			Abdullah ibn Salam, رضي الله عنه, left the
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:51
			most prestigious position that he could have had
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:54
			from a theological perspective in Medina, to embrace
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:55
			the Prophet ﷺ as soon as he entered
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:58
			into Medina, so he said, it is Salman
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:02
			al-Farisi, وابن سلام وتميم الداري رضي الله
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:02
			تعالى عنه.
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:05
			So he puts Tamim al-Dari, رضي الله
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:07
			تعالى عنه, in the category of the likes
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:10
			of Salman al-Farisi, رضي الله تعالى عنه,
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:12
			and Abdullah ibn Salam, رضي الله تعالى عنه,
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:15
			both as a way of speaking to his
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:17
			desire for the truth that led him to
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:20
			come to the Prophet ﷺ from the people
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:24
			of the book, and his deep scholarship of
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:26
			al-Kitab, his deep scholarship of the book
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:26
			itself.
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:29
			So as he's piecing together who the Prophet
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:33
			ﷺ is, and what he's claiming, Tamim al
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:35
			-Dari, رضي الله تعالى عنه, goes to some
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:37
			of the scholars of the book in his
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:38
			region of Palestine.
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:42
			So he goes to some of the rabbis,
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:43
			and he goes to a particular rabbi who
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:46
			is deeply thorough in the Torah, and Tamim
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:48
			رضي الله تعالى عنه is deeply thorough in
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:52
			the Torah, and he asks him about our
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:53
			situation.
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:55
			Where are we right now in the history
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:57
			and the unfolding of the Anbiya?
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:59
			And should I be a Jew, should I
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:01
			be a Christian, where should I be exerting
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:02
			myself?
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:06
			And this rabbi indicates to him that there
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:09
			is a Prophet that is to come, and
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:11
			this is the Prophet that brings everything together,
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:12
			and it makes sense that he would be
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:13
			arriving in that area.
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:14
			Right?
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:16
			That basically the signs do point to indeed
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:19
			a Prophet that is arising from Mecca, from
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:21
			the children of Ibrahim ﷺ, and he blames
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:24
			himself, he says, we denied Isa ﷺ, and
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:27
			this is a Prophet who affirms Isa ﷺ,
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:29
			who affirms Christ, who affirms all of the
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:31
			Prophets, affirms the Torah and the Injil, and
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:33
			who calls to the way of Ibrahim ﷺ.
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:36
			So he gets that indication from there, and
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:40
			he goes to a priest, someone who's scholarly
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:42
			in Christianity, he has a conversation with him,
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:45
			and this priest basically admits to him that
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:47
			we have lost our connection to Christ.
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:49
			We are not practicing the religion of Christ
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:52
			the way that Christ Jesus ﷺ used to
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:55
			practice his own religion, and indeed it is
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:57
			time for a Prophet that would come and
		
00:10:57 --> 00:11:00
			that would bring this all together, basically put
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:03
			this puzzle back together, as the people of
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:04
			the book are now scattered, and they are
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:07
			feeling the fracturing along political lines, along theological
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:11
			lines, with the Roman Empire now outlawing different
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:17
			forms of Christianity, the Persians practicing Christianity differently,
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:18
			and so on and so forth.
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:21
			So both the Rabbi and the priest indicate
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:24
			to him that there is something along these
		
00:11:24 --> 00:11:26
			lines, that there is a Prophet that is
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:29
			due to put this all back together, right,
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:30
			so it's lining up to what he's hearing
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:32
			about, the people of Mecca.
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:34
			Then he says, and there are some people
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:36
			from my village, and he's around the area
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:40
			of Al-Khalil, Hebron, may Allah ﷻ liberate
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:42
			it, Allahumma ameen, so subhanAllah we're literally in
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:43
			the backyard of Ibrahim ﷺ.
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:47
			He said there were some people, and they
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:49
			would go, and they would go to some
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:52
			of the abandoned valleys, and they would pray
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:54
			to the jinn, they would encounter the jinn,
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:56
			and they would pray to the jinn, like
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:59
			to these spirits, right, so invoking ancestral spirits,
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:01
			going to speak to the jinn, and he
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:03
			said I was with them one day, and
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:05
			a jinn arose, and he said stop seeking
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:07
			refuge in us, he was a righteous jinn
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:09
			who had embraced Islam, and he said stop
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:11
			seeking refuge in us, instead seek refuge in
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:15
			Allah ﷻ, and verily your Lord has sent
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:18
			a message and a messenger that has completely
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:22
			changed the akhbar, has changed the news of
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:22
			the heavens and the earth.
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:27
			So everything is aligning for him in his
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:30
			own home about this coming of a Prophet
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:31
			ﷺ.
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:36
			So he makes his way in the year
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:38
			of al-Wufud, he makes his way to
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:42
			the Prophet ﷺ, and he arrives in al
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:46
			-Madinah al-Munawwarah with ten men, amongst them
		
00:12:46 --> 00:12:48
			is his brother, also a great companion, Abu
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:52
			Hind al-Dari ﷺ, Abu Hind al-Dari
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:56
			ﷺ, and this is where this famous encounter
		
00:12:56 --> 00:13:01
			plays out, because on his way to arriving
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:06
			at the Prophet ﷺ, he undergoes one of
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:12
			the, you know, most spectacular experiences that a
		
00:13:12 --> 00:13:13
			person can undergo.
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:16
			When he comes to the Prophet ﷺ and
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:18
			he tells the Prophet ﷺ what happened to
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:19
			him along the way, and so I take
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:21
			it from there, take it from there, because
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:24
			this is the most famous hadith of Tamim
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:27
			al-Dari ﷺ, it is in Sahih Muslim,
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:29
			from Fatima bint Qais ﷺ.
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:33
			She says, سَمِعْتُ مُنَادِيَ that I heard the
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:36
			caller of the Prophet ﷺ يُنَادِي أَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ
		
00:13:36 --> 00:13:38
			جَامِعَةَ come to the prayer, come to the
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:41
			prayer, outside of the time of prayer, that
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:43
			there is a caller that tells everyone to
		
00:13:43 --> 00:13:44
			come to the masjid now.
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:49
			And so we came, and the Prophet ﷺ
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:52
			prayed with them, and then the Prophet ﷺ
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:55
			جَلَسَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ وَهُوَ يَضْحَكُ The Prophet ﷺ
		
00:13:55 --> 00:13:59
			sat on the minbar, and he was laughing,
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:00
			now the laughter of the Prophet ﷺ was
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:01
			what?
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:02
			A really big smile.
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:05
			A smile that was bigger than his typical
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:05
			smile.
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:09
			It wasn't with any noise ﷺ, but he
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:10
			looked happy ﷺ.
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:15
			And he sat on the minbar ﷺ, and
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:19
			he said, لِيَزَّمَ كُلُّ إِنسَانٍ مُصَلَّاةً Let everyone
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:20
			sit in the place that they prayed.
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:21
			No one get up from your place of
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:22
			prayer.
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:24
			So subhanAllah last week, Jareed walks in from
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:27
			Yemen, and everyone sit in your place, and
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:30
			the Prophet ﷺ talked about who this man
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:32
			was that was going to walk into the
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:34
			masjid, and the Prophet ﷺ described him before
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:36
			he even entered in such a beautiful way.
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:40
			This time, the Prophet ﷺ says, I want
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:42
			to tell you about what this man who
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:45
			just came, and Allah ﷻ is sending to
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:46
			the Prophet ﷺ people from around the world,
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:49
			this man who just came, encountered.
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:51
			So he said, هَلْ تَدْرُونَ لِمَا جَمَعْتُكُم Do
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:54
			you know why I have gathered you?
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:56
			And we said, Allah and His Messenger know
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:56
			best.
		
00:14:57 --> 00:15:00
			And he said, إِنِّي مَا جَمَعْتُكُم لِرَهْبَةٍ وَلَا
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02
			رَغْبَةٍ So, I did not gather you because
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:04
			of any type of fear or any type
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:08
			of particular news, like this wasn't some sort
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:10
			of incident, right, it's not like war has
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:11
			been declared or I have something to share
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:13
			with you in that regard.
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:16
			He said, but I gathered you because this
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:20
			man, Tamim al-Dari, كان رجل نصراني That
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:22
			this man, Tamim al-Dari, is a Christian
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:26
			man, فَجَاءَ فَبَايَعَ وَأَسْلَمَ He came and he
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:28
			took his pledge and he became Muslim.
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:33
			But he said, وَحَدَّثَنِي حَدِيثًا وَافَقَ الَّذِي حَدَّثْكُمْ
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:38
			عَنِ الدَّجَّابِ He shared with me some words
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:40
			or he shared with me a story that
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:44
			coincides with or corroborates what I have told
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:45
			you about a Dajjal.
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:48
			So this Christian man has come from afar
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:51
			and he shared with me what it is
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:55
			that happened to him that confirms or agrees
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:57
			with, because the Prophet ﷺ saying it is
		
00:15:57 --> 00:15:59
			enough, but the Prophet ﷺ is saying this,
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:01
			look, so that your iman can be strengthened,
		
00:16:02 --> 00:16:06
			that agrees with what the Prophet ﷺ had
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:08
			spoken to them about a Dajjal.
		
00:16:09 --> 00:16:10
			So what is the story?
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:17
			Tamim radiyallahu ta'ala anhu mentions, أَنَّهُ رَكِبَ
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:22
			فِي سَفِينَةٍ بَحْرِيَّةٍ مَعَ ثَلَاثِينَ رَجْرًا مِنْ لَخْمٍ
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:24
			وَجُذَامٍ He said that I was riding on
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:26
			a boat and he was a traveler and
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:27
			he was familiar with the seas.
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:29
			He said I was on a boat in
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:33
			the seas with 30 men from my tribe,
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:38
			فَلَعِبَ بِهِمْ الْمَوْجِ شَهْرًا فِي الْبَحْرِ And the
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:41
			waves played with them, I mean moved them
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:43
			around for a month in the seas.
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:47
			So basically they encountered stormy weather and in
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:50
			the process of that, subhanAllah, they ended up
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:52
			getting completely lost.
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:53
			Now by the way, side note, one of
		
00:16:53 --> 00:16:55
			the interesting things of the sharh of this
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:57
			hadith is that if you start to identify
		
00:16:57 --> 00:16:59
			like people that were trying to escape from
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:02
			the Prophet ﷺ or people that were trying
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:03
			to come to the Prophet ﷺ in this
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:06
			time, there's a lot of stormy weather that
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:08
			happens around that area.
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:10
			Like go back to the story of Ikramah
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:12
			رضي الله تعالى عنه, the boat plays around
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:14
			with them and the caller says like we're
		
00:17:14 --> 00:17:16
			gonna drown and then he calls out to
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:17
			Allah سبحانه وتعالى.
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:19
			So there is something happening.
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:21
			Some of the scholars of hadith say that
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:23
			there's something happening, subhanAllah, as the Prophet ﷺ
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:26
			now is absorbing, like Allah عز و جل
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:28
			is directing all of the ships towards him
		
00:17:28 --> 00:17:31
			ﷺ كأنه as he is directing their hearts
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:32
			towards him ﷺ.
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:35
			So Tamim رضي الله تعالى عنه says, so
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:38
			30 of us, we literally were in this,
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:41
			in the seas and the waves played around
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:43
			with us and crashed against us and we
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:47
			ended up on this small strip, this tiny
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:51
			island that none of us actually recognized after
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:52
			a month of being lost at sea.
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:55
			And he said that it was حين مغرب
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:57
			الشمس, it was at the time of sunset
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:59
			that day that we arrived at this land,
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:01
			so we came out of our safina, we
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:05
			came out of our boat and he mentions
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:11
			here فَلَقِيَتْهُمْ دَابَةٌ أَهْلَبُوا كَثِيرَةُ الشَّعْرِ That they
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:14
			were encountered by a beast that was extremely
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:16
			hairy that they had never seen anything like
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:17
			before.
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:22
			And they said وَيْلَكِ مَا أَنْتِي They said
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:24
			to the beast, woe to you, what are
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:25
			you?
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:29
			And so the beast responds and says أَنَا
		
00:18:29 --> 00:18:33
			جَسَّاسَةٌ إِنطَلِقُوا إِلَى هَذَا الرَّجْرِ فِي هَذَا الْدَيْرِ
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:38
			فَإِنَّهُ إِلَى خَبَرِكُمْ بِالْأَشْوَاقِ He says that the
		
00:18:38 --> 00:18:41
			beast said to us, I am Al-Jassasa,
		
00:18:41 --> 00:18:45
			actually introduced itself as Al-Jassasa, which is
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:47
			why this is called حديث Al-Jassasa, a
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:51
			beast, and it is a very particular beast
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:56
			that is extremely unique in how it looks.
		
00:18:57 --> 00:18:59
			And it said, follow me and go to
		
00:18:59 --> 00:19:01
			this land or go to this area, and
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:02
			there was a دير which is like a
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:05
			monastery, a temple, and there is a man
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:07
			that is waiting for you there and he
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:08
			is eager to hear your news.
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:12
			Now Tamim says that when the beast said
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:17
			that, that we immediately fled from the beast
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:19
			because we thought it might be a شيطان,
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:20
			we thought it might be some sort of
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:21
			a devil or something like that.
		
00:19:21 --> 00:19:24
			I mean, it was an incredibly unpleasant and
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:25
			scary sight.
		
00:19:26 --> 00:19:29
			قَالَ حَتَّى دَخَلْنَا الْدَيْرِ He said until we
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:30
			entered into that monastery.
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:36
			فَإِذَا فِيهِ أَعْظَمُ إِنسَانٍ رَأِيْنَاهُ قَتْ خَلْقًا وَأَشَدُهُ
		
00:19:36 --> 00:19:41
			وَثَاقًا مَجْمُوعَةٌ يَدَاهُ إِلَىٰ عُنُقِهِ He said that
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:44
			once we entered into it, we saw in
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:49
			it a man that was the largest human
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:53
			being that we had seen before, and he
		
00:19:53 --> 00:19:57
			mentions that he had his hands tied to
		
00:19:57 --> 00:20:00
			his neck or chained to his neck, and
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:04
			he had iron rings or iron holds around
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:07
			his legs, so he was chained up.
		
00:20:08 --> 00:20:11
			And this is now where this conversation takes
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:12
			a turn, right?
		
00:20:12 --> 00:20:15
			So he's shackled at the legs, shackled from
		
00:20:15 --> 00:20:17
			the hands to the neck, and we said
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:19
			to him, woe to you, who are you?
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:22
			And instead he responds and says, you tell
		
00:20:22 --> 00:20:23
			me who you are first.
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:27
			So Tamim says that we introduced ourselves, that
		
00:20:27 --> 00:20:30
			we are 30 people from Lacham, from Judam,
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:33
			from these tribes in Palestine, and we were
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:35
			at sea, and we had been lost at
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:38
			sea because of the stormy weather for 30
		
00:20:38 --> 00:20:39
			days, for a month, and we ended up
		
00:20:39 --> 00:20:42
			in this place, and then as we came
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:47
			down from this place, we found this Jassa,
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:49
			so we found this beast, and the beast
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:51
			directed us towards you.
		
00:20:51 --> 00:20:55
			So the man said, tell me about the
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:57
			date palms of Bisan.
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:02
			Bisan, and subhanAllah, all of these areas, by
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:06
			the way, are now either immediately part of
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:10
			occupied Palestine, or they're somewhere on the border
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:12
			of Jordan and Palestine, okay?
		
00:21:13 --> 00:21:16
			So the trees of Bisan were date palm
		
00:21:16 --> 00:21:19
			trees, and so he said, why are you
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:20
			asking about these trees?
		
00:21:20 --> 00:21:22
			It was a place where there was a
		
00:21:22 --> 00:21:24
			popular, or there was an area where it
		
00:21:24 --> 00:21:25
			was known to have dates.
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:29
			He said, do they still bear fruit?
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:31
			Do they still bear their dates?
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:34
			And we said, yeah, they still bear their
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:36
			dates, they still produce a tamar.
		
00:21:37 --> 00:21:38
			And he said, there will come a time
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:40
			that they will no longer produce.
		
00:21:41 --> 00:21:43
			And then he says, and tell me about
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:49
			the Tiberias, the Bahira, or in Arabic it's
		
00:21:49 --> 00:21:53
			Tabriya, Lake Galilee, which is northern occupied Palestine
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:57
			at the border of occupied Palestine and Jordan,
		
00:21:57 --> 00:22:01
			is this lake, right, Lake Galilee, or Tiberia.
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:05
			So they said, what do you want to
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:05
			know about it?
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:07
			And he said, is there still water in
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:07
			it?
		
00:22:08 --> 00:22:10
			And we said, there's still plenty of water
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:10
			in it.
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:11
			He said, soon it will dry up.
		
00:22:12 --> 00:22:15
			And subhanAllah, if you look at that lake,
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:17
			Lake Galilee today, first of all, it's the
		
00:22:17 --> 00:22:19
			second lowest lake in the world, or the
		
00:22:19 --> 00:22:21
			second lowest body of water in the world,
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:23
			second only to what?
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:26
			Al-Bahra al-Mayyit, the Dead Sea.
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:29
			And it is the lowest freshwater body on
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:32
			earth, okay, the lowest freshwater body on earth,
		
00:22:32 --> 00:22:34
			and it is receding to a point of
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:35
			almost not existing now.
		
00:22:35 --> 00:22:37
			If you just go look up the ecology
		
00:22:37 --> 00:22:38
			and you look up what is happening to
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:40
			it now, it is receding almost to a
		
00:22:40 --> 00:22:44
			point of no existence, and so this man
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:46
			says to them that there will come a
		
00:22:46 --> 00:22:47
			time that there will be no more water
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:49
			in it, it's going to dry up.
		
00:22:49 --> 00:22:53
			So he's asking him what about the signs
		
00:22:53 --> 00:22:53
			of the Day of Judgment.
		
00:22:55 --> 00:22:57
			And subhanAllah, both, the area of Bisan, by
		
00:22:57 --> 00:23:00
			the way, there are no longer date palm
		
00:23:00 --> 00:23:00
			trees over there.
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:02
			So the dates no longer grow there.
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:04
			The water recedes.
		
00:23:05 --> 00:23:07
			And then he says, and tell me about
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:09
			al-Nabi al-Ummi, maada fa'ad?
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:13
			Tell me about the illiterate prophet, what has
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:14
			he done?
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:18
			Now Tamim was familiar with the story of
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:19
			the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam at this point
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:22
			and intends to pursue the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:24
			Wasallam at this point.
		
00:23:25 --> 00:23:27
			So he tells him, he says that he
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:30
			left from Mecca and he settled in Yathrib.
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:36
			And the man asks him, are the Arabs
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:36
			fighting him?
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:38
			Are they fighting him or are they embracing
		
00:23:38 --> 00:23:38
			him?
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:41
			And we said they fought him.
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:44
			And he said, how does he deal with
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:45
			them?
		
00:23:45 --> 00:23:47
			And so we told him that the Prophet
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:52
			Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam had overcome, or that he
		
00:23:52 --> 00:23:54
			had overcame the Arabs that were around him
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:55
			and they followed him.
		
00:23:55 --> 00:23:57
			So at this point, the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:23:57 --> 00:24:00
			Wasallam was granted victory over them because this
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:01
			is now at the end of the seerah
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:02
			of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:24:02 --> 00:24:04
			So they had some battles back and forth.
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:07
			And some of the narrations are longer than
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:07
			others, by the way.
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:09
			So days of victory and days of defeat,
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:11
			which is the way that the Prophets are,
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:11
			right?
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:12
			So you had Badr and you had Uhud
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:14
			and you had Khandaq and you had, and
		
00:24:14 --> 00:24:15
			you had, and you had until Fatah Mecca,
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:17
			until the conquest of Mecca.
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:21
			But ultimately that the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:24
			had overcome his enemies and that the Arabs
		
00:24:24 --> 00:24:25
			have followed him.
		
00:24:26 --> 00:24:29
			And so the man says, did they follow
		
00:24:29 --> 00:24:29
			him?
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:32
			And we said, yes, they followed him.
		
00:24:32 --> 00:24:33
			At this point now they believe in him.
		
00:24:33 --> 00:24:37
			And the man said that it's in their
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:40
			interest to follow him, affirming that it's in
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:42
			their interest to follow the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:24:42 --> 00:24:43
			Wasallam.
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:46
			So he said, now I will tell you
		
00:24:46 --> 00:24:47
			who I am.
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:49
			And he says, I am al-Masih al
		
00:24:49 --> 00:24:50
			-Dajjal.
		
00:24:51 --> 00:24:53
			So he introduces himself to Tamim and this
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:54
			group of men, I am al-Masih al
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:55
			-Dajjal.
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:57
			And he says, soon I will leave this
		
00:24:57 --> 00:24:58
			place.
		
00:24:58 --> 00:25:00
			And when I am free to leave this
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:02
			place, I will travel the entirety of the
		
00:25:02 --> 00:25:04
			earth in 40 nights and 40 days.
		
00:25:04 --> 00:25:06
			And I will be permitted to reach every
		
00:25:06 --> 00:25:08
			single part of it except for At-Tayyibah.
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:13
			Except for Madinah, Tayyibah and Mecca.
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:15
			He said, every time I try to enter
		
00:25:15 --> 00:25:18
			into them, I will be met by Mala
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:20
			'ika, by angels that will be standing guard
		
00:25:20 --> 00:25:23
			with their swords and they will prevent me
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:24
			from entering into it.
		
00:25:24 --> 00:25:27
			While that is being said, the Prophet Sallallahu
		
00:25:27 --> 00:25:29
			Alaihi Wasallam strikes his Manbar.
		
00:25:29 --> 00:25:32
			And he says, Hathihi Tayyibah, Hathihi Tayyibah, Hathihi
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:33
			Tayyibah.
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:35
			This right here is Tayyibah, this right here
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:37
			is Tayyibah, this right here is Tayyibah.
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:41
			SubhanAllah, this hadith is, first of all, an
		
00:25:41 --> 00:25:45
			incredible narration because it is the only one
		
00:25:45 --> 00:25:47
			where you have such a vivid description of
		
00:25:47 --> 00:25:50
			a Dajjal by a companion that Allah Subh
		
00:25:50 --> 00:25:52
			'anaHu Wa Ta-A'la allowed to see
		
00:25:52 --> 00:25:52
			Dajjal in this form.
		
00:25:52 --> 00:25:56
			And it is a means of elevating the
		
00:25:56 --> 00:25:58
			Iman of the companions because a man is
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:00
			coming from far away and the Prophet Sallallahu
		
00:26:00 --> 00:26:02
			Alaihi Wasallam had told them these signs of
		
00:26:02 --> 00:26:04
			the Day of Judgment and these descriptions of
		
00:26:04 --> 00:26:06
			a Dajjal before the man arrived and before
		
00:26:06 --> 00:26:08
			the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam could say anything,
		
00:26:08 --> 00:26:10
			basically Tamim shared the story.
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:12
			This Christian man that came with a delegation
		
00:26:12 --> 00:26:14
			and at that point he had ten people
		
00:26:14 --> 00:26:18
			that were embracing Islam alongside him and the
		
00:26:18 --> 00:26:20
			Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, after he says Hathihi
		
00:26:20 --> 00:26:21
			Tayyibah, this is Tayyibah.
		
00:26:21 --> 00:26:23
			And he said, does this not agree with
		
00:26:23 --> 00:26:25
			what I told you about a Dajjal and
		
00:26:25 --> 00:26:27
			he said, yes O Messenger of Allah, this
		
00:26:27 --> 00:26:29
			agrees with everything that you told us about
		
00:26:29 --> 00:26:29
			a Dajjal.
		
00:26:30 --> 00:26:31
			I'm going to say a few things here
		
00:26:31 --> 00:26:33
			and I'm not going to spend too much
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:34
			time because I actually want to talk about
		
00:26:34 --> 00:26:36
			Tamim al-Dari radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu, you
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:38
			can find entire books written about Hadith al
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:41
			-Jassasa and, you know, responses and rebuttals to
		
00:26:41 --> 00:26:44
			the doubts that surround Hadith al-Jassasa.
		
00:26:44 --> 00:26:46
			I want to talk about the companion Tamim
		
00:26:46 --> 00:26:46
			al-Dari.
		
00:26:46 --> 00:26:47
			But I want to say a few things.
		
00:26:47 --> 00:26:51
			It's very interesting, SubhanAllah, that the one Sahabi
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:54
			that sees Dajjal in this form is the
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:55
			Palestinian companion.
		
00:26:58 --> 00:27:02
			And that is undoubtedly somewhat connected to the
		
00:27:02 --> 00:27:05
			Dajjala in that area and what will come
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:07
			out of that area of tyranny, of deception
		
00:27:07 --> 00:27:10
			and Dajjal himself.
		
00:27:10 --> 00:27:15
			That somewhere around there that this vision of
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:16
			Dajjal was captured.
		
00:27:16 --> 00:27:17
			That's number one.
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:20
			Number two, if someone were to say, well,
		
00:27:20 --> 00:27:22
			how come we can't just find these people
		
00:27:22 --> 00:27:22
			on Google Maps?
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:25
			Did they leave the island?
		
00:27:25 --> 00:27:27
			Did they go somewhere else?
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:28
			Has Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala restrained him
		
00:27:28 --> 00:27:29
			in some place?
		
00:27:29 --> 00:27:31
			Did Tamim see him like in a dream?
		
00:27:31 --> 00:27:35
			Because maybe they, like Allah azawajal, allowed them
		
00:27:35 --> 00:27:37
			to enter into a different, like, alim in
		
00:27:37 --> 00:27:39
			some port, you know, which is another discussion
		
00:27:39 --> 00:27:41
			altogether, like, did they see them in another
		
00:27:41 --> 00:27:42
			type of vision?
		
00:27:43 --> 00:27:45
			All of that is completely irrelevant for the
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:46
			following reasons.
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:49
			Number one, you're still finding uncontacted people today.
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:50
			I just want you to go to Google
		
00:27:50 --> 00:27:52
			News, not Google Maps, and just search, making
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:54
			contact with uncontacted people, and you'll see, subhanAllah,
		
00:27:55 --> 00:27:56
			every month almost, you'll find that there are
		
00:27:56 --> 00:27:58
			people that have never been contacted by the
		
00:27:58 --> 00:27:59
			rest of civilization.
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:01
			Or at least, it's not that they find
		
00:28:01 --> 00:28:03
			them that frequently, but there are news articles
		
00:28:03 --> 00:28:05
			about where such people might exist, and I
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:08
			don't remember where exactly, but not too long
		
00:28:08 --> 00:28:08
			ago, right?
		
00:28:08 --> 00:28:10
			Where they were actually showing a people from
		
00:28:10 --> 00:28:12
			satellite imagery that they had come across, human
		
00:28:12 --> 00:28:14
			beings that had never been in contact with
		
00:28:14 --> 00:28:15
			any of human civilization before.
		
00:28:16 --> 00:28:18
			Put that on the side, the same thing
		
00:28:18 --> 00:28:20
			that I would say for Yajuj and Majuj,
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:23
			and the same thing that I would say
		
00:28:23 --> 00:28:25
			for any of these types of ahadith, the
		
00:28:25 --> 00:28:28
			genre of these ahadith, stay away from knowledge
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:30
			that doesn't benefit you, do not be one
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:32
			of those people that waits around for something
		
00:28:32 --> 00:28:34
			to confirm something that's already there, and then
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:35
			to say, aha, see?
		
00:28:37 --> 00:28:39
			And then to express skepticism in the meantime.
		
00:28:39 --> 00:28:41
			Not a single companion of the Prophet ﷺ
		
00:28:41 --> 00:28:43
			said, well, let's go find the islands.
		
00:28:45 --> 00:28:48
			And after this narration, as the sahaba spread
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:50
			Islam throughout the world, none of them said,
		
00:28:50 --> 00:28:52
			let's go find that island that Tameem talked
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:53
			to us about.
		
00:28:53 --> 00:28:55
			They understood that this was a miracle that
		
00:28:55 --> 00:28:58
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala had exposed to
		
00:28:58 --> 00:29:00
			this particular companion, and that group of people,
		
00:29:00 --> 00:29:02
			by the way, that were with him, that
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:06
			had seen and encountered this particular individual, right?
		
00:29:06 --> 00:29:08
			The last thing that I'll say here is
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:10
			that some of the scholars say that when
		
00:29:10 --> 00:29:11
			it comes to Ad-Dajjal in particular, and
		
00:29:11 --> 00:29:13
			the forms of Ad-Dajjal, and what he
		
00:29:13 --> 00:29:17
			appears as, realize that even the Prophet ﷺ
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:22
			was unsure about if Dajjal was a man
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:25
			by the name of Ibn Sayyad, who was
		
00:29:25 --> 00:29:29
			also a satanic type of individual, right?
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:32
			That the sahaba had encountered, meaning if you
		
00:29:32 --> 00:29:34
			see people that have these types of qualities,
		
00:29:34 --> 00:29:38
			there are many versions of Dajjal, right?
		
00:29:38 --> 00:29:41
			Many deceivers, and people that dwell in that
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:45
			world of jinn and shayateen, and that dwell
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:48
			in that world of sorcery and soothsaying, and
		
00:29:48 --> 00:29:49
			we ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala for
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:50
			protection from them.
		
00:29:50 --> 00:29:53
			So none of these narrations are meant to
		
00:29:53 --> 00:29:56
			become scientific explorations for you, or for you
		
00:29:56 --> 00:29:58
			to hinge your iman, to hinge your faith
		
00:29:58 --> 00:29:58
			on these things.
		
00:29:58 --> 00:30:00
			But to simply take it at face value,
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:02
			and to say Allah and His Messenger know
		
00:30:02 --> 00:30:04
			best, and to take it from the companions,
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:06
			don't wait until like 2028 where they come
		
00:30:06 --> 00:30:08
			across an island maybe, and like we found
		
00:30:08 --> 00:30:10
			it, and then we found like some chains
		
00:30:10 --> 00:30:11
			that were there, and then you start posting
		
00:30:11 --> 00:30:12
			this hadith and saying I believed it all
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:14
			along, I believe it already, I don't need
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:17
			any of these things to happen, because Allah
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:19
			and His Messenger know best, and Allah azzawajal
		
00:30:19 --> 00:30:20
			allows us to see what He wants us
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:23
			to see at any point, and just like,
		
00:30:23 --> 00:30:24
			and this is the last thing that I'll
		
00:30:24 --> 00:30:27
			mention in this regard, just like there are
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:30
			creatures that exist around you that you can't
		
00:30:30 --> 00:30:31
			see, right?
		
00:30:31 --> 00:30:34
			There are creatures that exist around you that
		
00:30:34 --> 00:30:36
			you can't see, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:30:36 --> 00:30:40
			can peel back a layer of the dimension
		
00:30:40 --> 00:30:43
			of dunya around whoever He wants, whenever He
		
00:30:43 --> 00:30:43
			wants.
		
00:30:44 --> 00:30:46
			And the goal of the companions was to
		
00:30:46 --> 00:30:47
			be so truthful with Allah subhanahu wa ta
		
00:30:47 --> 00:30:50
			'ala that they worshipped Allah, the greatest of
		
00:30:50 --> 00:30:52
			al-ghayb, as if they could see Him,
		
00:30:52 --> 00:30:55
			even though they knew that they could not
		
00:30:55 --> 00:30:57
			see Him, however He could always see them.
		
00:30:57 --> 00:31:00
			So this is Tamim al-Dari entering into
		
00:31:00 --> 00:31:04
			Medina, it's a grand entrance, Palestinian, Christian scholar,
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:07
			traveller, merchant who comes to Medina and he
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:09
			has a group of ten men, and all
		
00:31:09 --> 00:31:11
			of them had encountered the same thing, so
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:13
			it's not like Tamim himself was the one
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:15
			that encountered this, the whole group of men
		
00:31:15 --> 00:31:18
			that were on this journey encountered this particular
		
00:31:19 --> 00:31:21
			vision of al-Dajjal.
		
00:31:21 --> 00:31:25
			Now you move on, Tamim brought a certain
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:30
			level of confirmation, a certain level of affirmation
		
00:31:31 --> 00:31:35
			to the hadith about al-Masih al-Dajjal
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:35
			to the companions.
		
00:31:36 --> 00:31:39
			He loves the Prophet ﷺ already because he
		
00:31:39 --> 00:31:41
			recognises the Prophet ﷺ from a different light,
		
00:31:42 --> 00:31:43
			not as a political power, but as a
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:45
			prophet that he has read and heard about
		
00:31:45 --> 00:31:45
			from the scriptures.
		
00:31:46 --> 00:31:47
			So what does he do?
		
00:31:47 --> 00:31:49
			First of all he has gifts, he and
		
00:31:49 --> 00:31:52
			his delegation have gifts for the Prophet ﷺ,
		
00:31:53 --> 00:31:55
			amongst the gifts he brought a really nice
		
00:31:55 --> 00:31:57
			horse for the Prophet ﷺ, an Arabian horse,
		
00:31:58 --> 00:32:00
			he brought a nice cloak for the Prophet
		
00:32:00 --> 00:32:02
			ﷺ, and he brought a bottle of wine
		
00:32:02 --> 00:32:03
			for the Prophet ﷺ.
		
00:32:04 --> 00:32:07
			So he didn't know that khamr was haram,
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:11
			because the people of the book had made
		
00:32:11 --> 00:32:14
			khamr halal, they were drinking alcohol, so he
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:16
			did not know khamr was haram, so he
		
00:32:16 --> 00:32:18
			brings a bottle of wine for the Prophet
		
00:32:18 --> 00:32:21
			ﷺ, the Prophet ﷺ does not take the
		
00:32:21 --> 00:32:22
			bottle of wine and break it over his
		
00:32:22 --> 00:32:24
			head, the Prophet ﷺ simply makes it known
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:28
			that in our religion this is prohibited, khamr
		
00:32:28 --> 00:32:30
			is prohibited, and uses it as a point
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:31
			of education.
		
00:32:32 --> 00:32:34
			He also had with him, so he had
		
00:32:34 --> 00:32:39
			his delegation that had come to embrace Islam
		
00:32:39 --> 00:32:42
			alongside him, he also had with him five
		
00:32:42 --> 00:32:49
			slaves, five slaves, and the Prophet ﷺ said,
		
00:32:50 --> 00:32:52
			I want to set these five free, I
		
00:32:52 --> 00:32:54
			want to free these five men from captivity.
		
00:32:55 --> 00:32:58
			And Tamim immediately recognises that, he says, Ya
		
00:32:58 --> 00:33:01
			Rasulullah, if you want to free them, ajlillah,
		
00:33:01 --> 00:33:03
			for the sake of Allah ﷻ, then I
		
00:33:03 --> 00:33:04
			will free them for the sake of Allah
		
00:33:04 --> 00:33:05
			ﷻ, we don't have to go through that
		
00:33:05 --> 00:33:08
			process, I set them free for the sake
		
00:33:08 --> 00:33:09
			of Allah ﷻ.
		
00:33:09 --> 00:33:11
			So he frees the five slaves that were
		
00:33:11 --> 00:33:13
			with him, his men that are with him
		
00:33:13 --> 00:33:15
			embrace Islam, he brings his gifts to the
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:20
			Prophet ﷺ, but the most amazing gift that
		
00:33:20 --> 00:33:22
			he brings to the masjid of the Prophet
		
00:33:22 --> 00:33:24
			ﷺ is what, does anybody know?
		
00:33:24 --> 00:33:26
			It's actually incredibly beautiful.
		
00:33:27 --> 00:33:29
			Okay, I'm going to give you a little
		
00:33:29 --> 00:33:30
			bit of trivia here.
		
00:33:31 --> 00:33:34
			There's a famous narration, and while not a
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:37
			singular sanad is confirmed, but there are multiple
		
00:33:37 --> 00:33:39
			narrations along this regard, and obviously it's a
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:42
			part of our tradition, that the Prophet ﷺ
		
00:33:42 --> 00:33:45
			said that if you can go to Jerusalem,
		
00:33:45 --> 00:33:47
			go to al-Quds and pray two rak
		
00:33:47 --> 00:33:48
			'ahs, and if you are unable to go
		
00:33:48 --> 00:33:50
			and pray two rak'ahs there, what did
		
00:33:50 --> 00:33:51
			the Prophet ﷺ say you should do?
		
00:33:53 --> 00:33:57
			Faba'tu bi zaytin, right, to send some oil
		
00:33:57 --> 00:34:00
			that could, yusraju, that could light up the
		
00:34:00 --> 00:34:03
			lamps, right, to send some oil to light
		
00:34:03 --> 00:34:06
			up the lamps of al-Bayt al-Maqdis,
		
00:34:06 --> 00:34:07
			okay.
		
00:34:08 --> 00:34:12
			One of the things that Tamim knows is
		
00:34:12 --> 00:34:14
			a zayt, Palestine is a land that is
		
00:34:14 --> 00:34:16
			rich with a zayt, that is rich with
		
00:34:16 --> 00:34:16
			oil.
		
00:34:17 --> 00:34:19
			And Tamim was the first one, as Abu
		
00:34:19 --> 00:34:22
			Sa'id al-Khudri ﷺ says, awwalu man
		
00:34:22 --> 00:34:26
			asraja fil masajidi tamimun al-dari, the first
		
00:34:26 --> 00:34:27
			one to light oil lamps in the masajid
		
00:34:27 --> 00:34:28
			was Tamim al-Dari.
		
00:34:29 --> 00:34:33
			Tamim basically brings all of these lights, oil
		
00:34:33 --> 00:34:35
			lamps, to the masjid of the Prophet ﷺ,
		
00:34:36 --> 00:34:38
			and he beautifies the masjid of the Prophet
		
00:34:38 --> 00:34:42
			ﷺ with this entire new system of oil
		
00:34:42 --> 00:34:43
			lamps.
		
00:34:43 --> 00:34:45
			And the Prophet ﷺ said, may Allah ﷻ
		
00:34:45 --> 00:34:47
			grant you light on the Day of Judgment,
		
00:34:48 --> 00:34:49
			as he brought light to the masjid of
		
00:34:49 --> 00:34:50
			the Prophet ﷺ.
		
00:34:50 --> 00:34:53
			So Tamim came with an immediate physical presence
		
00:34:53 --> 00:34:55
			where he knew how to take the oil
		
00:34:55 --> 00:34:57
			that he had, and may Allah ﷻ give
		
00:34:57 --> 00:35:00
			us access to our zayt in our lands
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:02
			in Palestine, Allahumma ameen, and to light up
		
00:35:02 --> 00:35:03
			the masjid of the Prophet ﷺ, and the
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:06
			riwayat, the narrations will tell us, light up
		
00:35:06 --> 00:35:08
			the lamps of Masjid al-Aqsa.
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:10
			This man from Palestine was lighting up the
		
00:35:10 --> 00:35:13
			lamps in the masjid of the Prophet ﷺ,
		
00:35:13 --> 00:35:16
			and one of the freed slaves that came
		
00:35:16 --> 00:35:19
			with him assumed the responsibility of keeping the
		
00:35:19 --> 00:35:20
			oil in all of the lamps.
		
00:35:20 --> 00:35:25
			And the Prophet ﷺ changed his name to
		
00:35:25 --> 00:35:26
			Siraj.
		
00:35:26 --> 00:35:29
			So you see Imam Siraj Wahaj, may Allah
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:32
			ﷻ bless him, right, Siraj, which of course
		
00:35:32 --> 00:35:33
			refers to that light.
		
00:35:34 --> 00:35:36
			The Prophet ﷺ named him Siraj, the man
		
00:35:36 --> 00:35:37
			that would go, and that would, the freed
		
00:35:37 --> 00:35:39
			slave of Tamim that was in charge of
		
00:35:39 --> 00:35:41
			lighting up the lamps in the time of
		
00:35:41 --> 00:35:44
			the Prophet ﷺ in his masjid.
		
00:35:45 --> 00:35:48
			Beautiful narrations about Tamim ﷺ, because he will
		
00:35:48 --> 00:35:50
			rise to become one of the most noble
		
00:35:50 --> 00:35:53
			and righteous companions of the Prophet ﷺ in
		
00:35:53 --> 00:35:55
			a short period of time.
		
00:35:55 --> 00:35:57
			Now realize, a lot of these people simply
		
00:35:57 --> 00:35:59
			went back to their towns, or they embraced
		
00:35:59 --> 00:36:01
			it and they took the political leadership with
		
00:36:01 --> 00:36:04
			it, or the connotations, or they just became
		
00:36:04 --> 00:36:06
			average Muslims in their wafud.
		
00:36:06 --> 00:36:09
			He stays in Medina and he quickly devotes
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:11
			himself to the Prophet ﷺ in an extraordinary
		
00:36:11 --> 00:36:12
			way.
		
00:36:12 --> 00:36:13
			So there are multiple ahadith.
		
00:36:13 --> 00:36:16
			One of them, it's a beautiful one, he
		
00:36:16 --> 00:36:20
			said to the Prophet ﷺ that what is
		
00:36:20 --> 00:36:22
			mas sunnatu fil rajuli min ahlil kitab?
		
00:36:23 --> 00:36:25
			Yuslimu ala yadai rajul.
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:30
			He said that what is the sunnah concerning
		
00:36:30 --> 00:36:32
			a man from ahlil kitab who becomes Muslim
		
00:36:32 --> 00:36:34
			ala yadai rajul, on the hands of someone
		
00:36:34 --> 00:36:34
			else.
		
00:36:34 --> 00:36:37
			So tell me about what it's like for
		
00:36:37 --> 00:36:39
			the one who gives da'wah to someone
		
00:36:39 --> 00:36:40
			from the people of the book.
		
00:36:40 --> 00:36:44
			And the Prophet ﷺ said huwa awla al
		
00:36:44 --> 00:36:48
			nasi bimahyahu wa mamatihi.
		
00:36:48 --> 00:36:50
			He is the closest person to that man
		
00:36:50 --> 00:36:51
			in life and in death.
		
00:36:52 --> 00:36:54
			That the favour that you do when you
		
00:36:54 --> 00:36:56
			give da'wah to someone, and here he
		
00:36:56 --> 00:36:58
			specifies the people of the book because Tamim
		
00:36:58 --> 00:37:00
			wants to call people of the book because
		
00:37:00 --> 00:37:01
			he is from the people of the book,
		
00:37:02 --> 00:37:04
			and a scholar of the Torah and the
		
00:37:04 --> 00:37:06
			Bible, he can speak a certain language that
		
00:37:06 --> 00:37:08
			can connect him to his people in Palestine,
		
00:37:08 --> 00:37:10
			but also someone that comes from a Jewish
		
00:37:10 --> 00:37:12
			or a Christian tradition, and the Prophet ﷺ
		
00:37:12 --> 00:37:14
			says this will be the closest of all
		
00:37:14 --> 00:37:17
			people to him in life and in death.
		
00:37:17 --> 00:37:21
			Now subhanAllah there is one also narration, a
		
00:37:21 --> 00:37:24
			little bit longer, that Tamim as a merchant,
		
00:37:26 --> 00:37:29
			he did while he was travelling with someone,
		
00:37:29 --> 00:37:30
			this is a long narration from Ibn Abbas
		
00:37:30 --> 00:37:35
			ﷺ, that as they were trading, buying and
		
00:37:35 --> 00:37:36
			selling, buying and selling, that there was a
		
00:37:36 --> 00:37:40
			bull that came into their possession that was
		
00:37:40 --> 00:37:41
			not supposed to come into their possession.
		
00:37:42 --> 00:37:44
			So a bull of inheritance that came into
		
00:37:44 --> 00:37:46
			their possession in the capacity of buying and
		
00:37:46 --> 00:37:49
			trading as Christians, that was not supposed to
		
00:37:49 --> 00:37:51
			be in their buying and selling, and Tamim
		
00:37:51 --> 00:37:54
			felt bad about it after he became Muslim,
		
00:37:54 --> 00:37:56
			and there were two people that testified to
		
00:37:56 --> 00:38:00
			that bull belonging to its rightful owner in
		
00:38:00 --> 00:38:04
			Mecca, and this is actually the basis for
		
00:38:04 --> 00:38:05
			the verse in Surah Al-Ma'idah, which
		
00:38:05 --> 00:38:08
			is obviously one of the latest of the
		
00:38:08 --> 00:38:10
			verses, verse 106, يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا شَهَادَةُ
		
00:38:10 --> 00:38:14
			بَيْنِكُمْ إِذَا حَضَرَ أَحَدَكُمُ الْمَوْتُ that O believers,
		
00:38:14 --> 00:38:17
			when death approaches upon you, then call upon
		
00:38:17 --> 00:38:20
			you to just Muslim men to witness as
		
00:38:20 --> 00:38:23
			you make your bequest, otherwise to non-Muslims,
		
00:38:23 --> 00:38:25
			if you are afflicted with death on a
		
00:38:25 --> 00:38:27
			journey, because it was two people that witnessed
		
00:38:27 --> 00:38:29
			to that bull that testified to the Prophet
		
00:38:29 --> 00:38:32
			ﷺ, and so the recourse happened about the
		
00:38:32 --> 00:38:34
			bull after Tamim had become Muslim, just a
		
00:38:34 --> 00:38:36
			side point about Tamim radiAllahu ta'ala anhu.
		
00:38:37 --> 00:38:39
			But Tamim immediately assumes a position of charity,
		
00:38:39 --> 00:38:40
			so we'll talk about some of his virtues
		
00:38:40 --> 00:38:42
			and his charity.
		
00:38:42 --> 00:38:45
			He narrates the hadith from the Prophet ﷺ,
		
00:38:45 --> 00:38:48
			he says, سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ
		
00:38:48 --> 00:38:51
			وَسَلَامًا يَقُولُ مَنْ اِرْطَبَتَ فَرَسًا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ
		
00:38:51 --> 00:38:55
			ثُمَّ عَالَجَ عَلَفَهُ بِيَدِهِ كَانَ لَهُ بِكُلِّ حَبَّةٍ
		
00:38:55 --> 00:38:58
			حَسَنَةٌ that the Prophet ﷺ said that whoever
		
00:38:58 --> 00:39:00
			ties a horse in the cause of Allah
		
00:39:00 --> 00:39:02
			and then feeds it with his own hand,
		
00:39:02 --> 00:39:04
			he will have a hasana for every grain
		
00:39:04 --> 00:39:06
			that he feeds it with his own hand.
		
00:39:06 --> 00:39:09
			And so he becomes known for his sadaqah,
		
00:39:09 --> 00:39:11
			he becomes known for his striving for the
		
00:39:11 --> 00:39:11
			sake of Allah.
		
00:39:12 --> 00:39:14
			Probably the most famous hadith that he ever
		
00:39:14 --> 00:39:16
			narrated is the hadith in Arba'een an
		
00:39:16 --> 00:39:20
			-Nawwi which is the hadith from Tamim ﷺ
		
00:39:20 --> 00:39:22
			where he says that the Prophet ﷺ said,
		
00:39:22 --> 00:39:26
			الدين النصيحة, that the religion is sincerity.
		
00:39:26 --> 00:39:28
			قُلْنَا لِمَنْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ We said, to
		
00:39:28 --> 00:39:29
			who, O Messenger of Allah?
		
00:39:29 --> 00:39:33
			He said, لِلَّهِ وَلِكِتَابِهِ وَلِرَسُولِهِ وَلِأَمَّةِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ
		
00:39:33 --> 00:39:37
			وَعَامَتِهِمْ That to Allah, to his book, to
		
00:39:37 --> 00:39:40
			his Messenger ﷺ, to the leaders of the
		
00:39:40 --> 00:39:42
			Muslims and to the common folk of the
		
00:39:42 --> 00:39:42
			Muslims.
		
00:39:42 --> 00:39:44
			This is obviously one of the ahadith of
		
00:39:44 --> 00:39:46
			Arba'een an-Nawwi of the 40 of
		
00:39:46 --> 00:39:48
			Nawwi, so it is one of the most
		
00:39:48 --> 00:39:50
			famous ahadith in Islam by extension.
		
00:39:51 --> 00:39:54
			He himself manifests this by gaining a reputation
		
00:39:54 --> 00:39:57
			of always being there for the people.
		
00:39:57 --> 00:40:00
			So he assumes a reputation of sadaqah, he
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:04
			assumes a reputation of scholarship, he's the helpful
		
00:40:04 --> 00:40:07
			man in the community, right, stringing together lamps
		
00:40:07 --> 00:40:09
			in the masjid of the Prophet ﷺ, assisting
		
00:40:09 --> 00:40:11
			with some of the new converts to Islam,
		
00:40:12 --> 00:40:14
			representing the Prophet ﷺ to certain delegations because
		
00:40:14 --> 00:40:19
			of his thoroughness and his scholarship, and his
		
00:40:19 --> 00:40:21
			quick devotion to the Qur'an.
		
00:40:22 --> 00:40:24
			Some of the scholars say that the quickest
		
00:40:24 --> 00:40:26
			man to ever memorize the Qur'an, to
		
00:40:26 --> 00:40:29
			become a hafidh was Tamim ﷺ, and they
		
00:40:29 --> 00:40:32
			cite that for many different reasons.
		
00:40:32 --> 00:40:33
			He is one of the hufadh of the
		
00:40:33 --> 00:40:35
			Qur'an, he's one of those who memorized
		
00:40:35 --> 00:40:36
			the Qur'an even though he only caught
		
00:40:36 --> 00:40:38
			the Prophet ﷺ in his last year.
		
00:40:39 --> 00:40:41
			And he became such a thorough scholar of
		
00:40:41 --> 00:40:43
			the Qur'an that he became an imam
		
00:40:43 --> 00:40:45
			of the companions who had been Muslim from
		
00:40:45 --> 00:40:45
			the very start.
		
00:40:47 --> 00:40:50
			So he understands the Qur'an, and obviously
		
00:40:50 --> 00:40:53
			his previous scholarship helps him understand the Qur
		
00:40:53 --> 00:40:55
			'an in the most thorough way, and he
		
00:40:55 --> 00:40:57
			becomes a beautiful reciter of the Qur'an,
		
00:40:57 --> 00:41:00
			and a devoted worshipper with the Qur'an.
		
00:41:01 --> 00:41:03
			And of his students and narrators of hadith,
		
00:41:04 --> 00:41:06
			were Abdullah ibn Abbas, Anas ibn Malik, and
		
00:41:06 --> 00:41:08
			some of the greatest of the companions, may
		
00:41:08 --> 00:41:10
			Allah ﷻ be pleased with them all.
		
00:41:11 --> 00:41:12
			I'm going to get back to the Qur
		
00:41:12 --> 00:41:13
			'an and the qiyam in a little bit,
		
00:41:13 --> 00:41:14
			inshaAllah ta'ala, but I just want you
		
00:41:14 --> 00:41:15
			to keep that in mind to get the
		
00:41:15 --> 00:41:16
			initial profile.
		
00:41:16 --> 00:41:19
			So a hafidh, a scholar, who brings his
		
00:41:19 --> 00:41:22
			previous scholarship, likes the man al-Farisi ﷺ,
		
00:41:22 --> 00:41:25
			and assumes a certain position in Islam.
		
00:41:26 --> 00:41:29
			Of the most beautiful things that's narrated about
		
00:41:29 --> 00:41:31
			him in this regard, of the role that
		
00:41:31 --> 00:41:33
			he assumes in the community quickly, that helpful
		
00:41:33 --> 00:41:36
			man, that scholarly man, that man of the
		
00:41:36 --> 00:41:39
			Qur'an, was that the Prophet ﷺ said
		
00:41:39 --> 00:41:41
			to him, that if I had a daughter
		
00:41:41 --> 00:41:43
			that was not married, I would have married
		
00:41:43 --> 00:41:44
			her to you.
		
00:41:44 --> 00:41:48
			I mean that's the highest testimony you get
		
00:41:48 --> 00:41:48
			of character.
		
00:41:49 --> 00:41:51
			Nauf ibn al-Harith ibn Abdul-Muttalib, the
		
00:41:51 --> 00:41:53
			cousin of the Prophet ﷺ, remember Abu Sufyan
		
00:41:54 --> 00:41:56
			ibn al-Harith ibn Abdul-Muttalib, the cousin
		
00:41:56 --> 00:41:58
			of the Prophet ﷺ, Nauf, he heard the
		
00:41:58 --> 00:41:59
			Prophet ﷺ say that, and he said, well
		
00:41:59 --> 00:42:02
			I have a daughter, and I'm your cousin.
		
00:42:03 --> 00:42:05
			So he actually goes and he proposes on
		
00:42:05 --> 00:42:08
			behalf of Tamim to his daughter, and she
		
00:42:08 --> 00:42:11
			marries Tamim al-Dari رضي الله تعالى عنه,
		
00:42:11 --> 00:42:13
			it's also narrated that later on that Abu
		
00:42:13 --> 00:42:15
			Bakr رضي الله تعالى عنه الصديق, had a
		
00:42:15 --> 00:42:17
			sister that he married to Tamim رضي الله
		
00:42:17 --> 00:42:19
			تعالى عنه, on the basis of the Prophet
		
00:42:19 --> 00:42:21
			ﷺ saying to a man, if I had
		
00:42:21 --> 00:42:23
			a daughter that was not married, I would
		
00:42:23 --> 00:42:24
			have married her to you.
		
00:42:24 --> 00:42:27
			That's how noble this beautiful companion is, that
		
00:42:27 --> 00:42:29
			comes into the life of the Muslims very
		
00:42:29 --> 00:42:32
			late in the time of the Prophet ﷺ
		
00:42:32 --> 00:42:33
			becomes.
		
00:42:34 --> 00:42:36
			And subhanAllah he didn't live long with the
		
00:42:36 --> 00:42:37
			Prophet ﷺ but his rank was well known,
		
00:42:38 --> 00:42:39
			similar to Jarir رضي الله تعالى عنه.
		
00:42:39 --> 00:42:42
			And Umar رضي الله تعالى عنه recognized that
		
00:42:42 --> 00:42:44
			rank as he did with Jarir ibn Abdullah,
		
00:42:44 --> 00:42:46
			and so there are multiple stories with Umar
		
00:42:46 --> 00:42:47
			in this regard.
		
00:42:48 --> 00:42:49
			One of them is that when someone was
		
00:42:49 --> 00:42:54
			to convert or repent, Tamim was the person
		
00:42:54 --> 00:42:57
			who would bring them to the masjid and
		
00:42:57 --> 00:42:59
			would teach them how to pray, and sit
		
00:42:59 --> 00:43:00
			with them and make them thorough in their
		
00:43:00 --> 00:43:00
			Islam.
		
00:43:01 --> 00:43:02
			And so there is a story of a
		
00:43:02 --> 00:43:05
			man by the name of Muawiyah ibn Harmal,
		
00:43:05 --> 00:43:06
			Muawiyah ibn Harmal.
		
00:43:08 --> 00:43:10
			And Muawiyah, this Muawiyah, not Muawiyah ibn Abi
		
00:43:10 --> 00:43:14
			Sufyan, this Muawiyah became a follower of Musaylim
		
00:43:14 --> 00:43:16
			al-Kaddhab, so he was a Muslim that
		
00:43:16 --> 00:43:18
			apostated, and then he repented.
		
00:43:19 --> 00:43:21
			And he became very, like he was very
		
00:43:21 --> 00:43:23
			involved in the fitna and then he repented.
		
00:43:23 --> 00:43:24
			So when he came to Umar ibn al
		
00:43:24 --> 00:43:27
			-Khattab رضي الله تعالى عنه to repent for
		
00:43:27 --> 00:43:28
			that time that he spent with Musaylim al
		
00:43:28 --> 00:43:31
			-Kaddhab, Umar رضي الله تعالى عنه said to
		
00:43:31 --> 00:43:34
			him, اذهب إلى خير المؤمنين, go to the
		
00:43:34 --> 00:43:35
			best of the believers, and he sent him
		
00:43:35 --> 00:43:38
			to Tamim رضي الله تعالى عنه and Tamim
		
00:43:38 --> 00:43:40
			took him to the masjid and enjoined him
		
00:43:40 --> 00:43:42
			in salah and enjoined him in sadaqah once
		
00:43:42 --> 00:43:43
			again, basically got him right.
		
00:43:44 --> 00:43:45
			And there is a longer story that goes
		
00:43:45 --> 00:43:46
			on from there as well.
		
00:43:47 --> 00:43:48
			But the point is that Tamim رضي الله
		
00:43:48 --> 00:43:50
			تعالى عنه is being called that by Umar
		
00:43:50 --> 00:43:52
			رضي الله تعالى عنه, like go to the
		
00:43:52 --> 00:43:55
			best of the believers, he'll get you started,
		
00:43:55 --> 00:43:57
			he'll get you settled in your Islam.
		
00:43:58 --> 00:44:00
			So what makes him so special in terms
		
00:44:00 --> 00:44:00
			of his devotion?
		
00:44:01 --> 00:44:04
			Tamim رضي الله تعالى عنه absolutely fell in
		
00:44:04 --> 00:44:07
			love with the Qur'an, absolutely fell in
		
00:44:07 --> 00:44:08
			love with his Qiyam al-Layl.
		
00:44:09 --> 00:44:12
			And so his, the first narration about him
		
00:44:12 --> 00:44:14
			by Abi al-Muhallab, he says كَانَ تَمِيمٌ
		
00:44:14 --> 00:44:17
			يَخْتِمُ الْقُرْآنَ فِي سَبْعٍ that Tamim رضي الله
		
00:44:17 --> 00:44:19
			تعالى عنه was known to complete the Qur
		
00:44:19 --> 00:44:22
			'an in its daily recitation every seven days,
		
00:44:22 --> 00:44:22
			every week.
		
00:44:23 --> 00:44:26
			But Ibn Sirin says about Tamim أن تَمِيمَنَ
		
00:44:26 --> 00:44:31
			الدَّارِي كَانَ يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ فِي رَكَعَةٍ that Tamim
		
00:44:31 --> 00:44:33
			is one of those people who finished the
		
00:44:33 --> 00:44:34
			entire recitation of the Qur'an in a
		
00:44:34 --> 00:44:38
			single raka'a, that his Qiyam was distinguished,
		
00:44:39 --> 00:44:41
			that the man would stand up and he
		
00:44:41 --> 00:44:44
			would pray all night long with the Qur
		
00:44:44 --> 00:44:44
			'an.
		
00:44:45 --> 00:44:47
			Masrook ibn al-Ajda' he says قَالَ لِي
		
00:44:47 --> 00:44:49
			رَجْلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةٍ that a man said
		
00:44:49 --> 00:44:52
			to me from Ahlul Makkah, that he said
		
00:44:52 --> 00:44:55
			that هَذَا مَقَامُ أَخِيكَ تَمِيمَ الدَّارِي he said
		
00:44:55 --> 00:44:59
			this is the place of your brother Tamim
		
00:44:59 --> 00:45:01
			al-Dari where he used to pray at
		
00:45:01 --> 00:45:01
			night.
		
00:45:02 --> 00:45:04
			And he said I would hear him praying
		
00:45:04 --> 00:45:07
			all night long and he would read one
		
00:45:07 --> 00:45:09
			ayah at times and he would cry the
		
00:45:09 --> 00:45:11
			entire night reciting that one ayah of the
		
00:45:11 --> 00:45:11
			Qur'an.
		
00:45:12 --> 00:45:14
			And he said and I remember him reciting
		
00:45:14 --> 00:45:17
			the ayah from Surat al-Jafiyah أَمْ حَسِبَ
		
00:45:17 --> 00:45:21
			الَّذِينَ اَسْتَرَحُوا السَيِّئَاتِ أَنَّ جَعَلَهُمْ كَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا
		
00:45:21 --> 00:45:24
			وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ Do those who commit evil deeds
		
00:45:24 --> 00:45:26
			think that we will make them like those
		
00:45:26 --> 00:45:27
			who believe and who do good deeds?
		
00:45:28 --> 00:45:30
			So he did that all night long reading
		
00:45:30 --> 00:45:34
			that one ayah and crying with the Qur
		
00:45:34 --> 00:45:34
			'an.
		
00:45:35 --> 00:45:38
			Now subhanAllah in this process of his being
		
00:45:38 --> 00:45:41
			distinguished by Qur'an, one of the Tabi
		
00:45:41 --> 00:45:44
			'een comes up to him and this is
		
00:45:44 --> 00:45:46
			such an instructive moment.
		
00:45:47 --> 00:45:49
			He comes up to Tamim al-Dari and
		
00:45:49 --> 00:45:51
			he says كَمْ جَزْءُكَ how much do you
		
00:45:51 --> 00:45:52
			read at night?
		
00:45:52 --> 00:45:53
			How much Qur'an do you read at
		
00:45:53 --> 00:45:54
			night?
		
00:45:54 --> 00:45:59
			So Tamim responds to him with anger and
		
00:45:59 --> 00:46:03
			he says لَعَلَّكَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ يَقْرَأُ أَحَدُهُمُ الْقُرْآنَ
		
00:46:03 --> 00:46:07
			ثُمَّ يُصْبِحُ فَيَقُولُ قَدْ قَرَأْتُ الْقُرْآنَ فِي هَذِهِ
		
00:46:07 --> 00:46:12
			الْلَيْلَ فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَأَنْ أُصَلِّي ثَلَاثَ رَكَعَاتِ
		
00:46:12 --> 00:46:15
			النَّافِلَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ فِي
		
00:46:15 --> 00:46:19
			لَيْلَ ثُ مَا أُصْبِحُ فَأُخْبِرَ بِهِ He said,
		
00:46:19 --> 00:46:21
			it seems to me like you're one of
		
00:46:21 --> 00:46:23
			those people who reads the Quran at night
		
00:46:23 --> 00:46:24
			and then you wake up in the daytime
		
00:46:24 --> 00:46:26
			and you tell people, I read this much
		
00:46:26 --> 00:46:27
			Quran at night, I read this much Quran
		
00:46:27 --> 00:46:27
			at night.
		
00:46:28 --> 00:46:28
			It seems to me you're one of those
		
00:46:28 --> 00:46:30
			people who goes out there and tells people
		
00:46:30 --> 00:46:31
			what you read at night.
		
00:46:31 --> 00:46:33
			And he said, Wallahi, I would rather just
		
00:46:33 --> 00:46:37
			pray witr, three rak'ahs of witr, and
		
00:46:37 --> 00:46:39
			not tell anyone that I prayed those three
		
00:46:39 --> 00:46:41
			rak'ahs of witr last night than read
		
00:46:41 --> 00:46:44
			the entire Quran at night and then wake
		
00:46:44 --> 00:46:45
			up in the morning and tell people how
		
00:46:45 --> 00:46:46
			much Quran I read.
		
00:46:47 --> 00:46:48
			Think about that.
		
00:46:49 --> 00:46:50
			Hide your qiyam.
		
00:46:51 --> 00:46:52
			Someone asks you, how was last night?
		
00:46:53 --> 00:46:54
			Alhamdulillah, I had the greatest night of tahajjud
		
00:46:54 --> 00:46:54
			ever.
		
00:46:56 --> 00:46:57
			Why is your back like that?
		
00:46:57 --> 00:47:02
			Man, like eight rak'ahs, two hours, felt
		
00:47:02 --> 00:47:03
			like Ramadan last night.
		
00:47:03 --> 00:47:04
			Keep it to yourself.
		
00:47:05 --> 00:47:06
			Hide your qiyam.
		
00:47:06 --> 00:47:07
			Hide your tahajjud.
		
00:47:08 --> 00:47:09
			We have a tradition where the Salaf would
		
00:47:09 --> 00:47:10
			hide it from their spouses.
		
00:47:11 --> 00:47:13
			Tamim is saying, I'm not interested in playing
		
00:47:13 --> 00:47:15
			this game and telling you how much Quran
		
00:47:15 --> 00:47:16
			I read at night or how much qiyam
		
00:47:16 --> 00:47:17
			I prayed last night.
		
00:47:17 --> 00:47:19
			He said, I'd rather just pray witr and
		
00:47:19 --> 00:47:21
			not tell anybody, right, than read the whole
		
00:47:21 --> 00:47:22
			Quran at night.
		
00:47:22 --> 00:47:24
			And subhanAllah, with that Allah made him famous
		
00:47:24 --> 00:47:26
			for his qiyam, for the people next door
		
00:47:26 --> 00:47:28
			to him and what he was renowned for.
		
00:47:28 --> 00:47:30
			So anyway, it's a longer narration.
		
00:47:31 --> 00:47:33
			But this man says to him, the sahabi
		
00:47:33 --> 00:47:34
			was upset.
		
00:47:35 --> 00:47:37
			And he says to him, you know, some
		
00:47:37 --> 00:47:41
			of you sahaba are so impatient with us
		
00:47:41 --> 00:47:43
			when you teach us that you should either
		
00:47:43 --> 00:47:45
			be quiet or you should leave off teaching.
		
00:47:46 --> 00:47:48
			Right, like, why did you have to scold
		
00:47:48 --> 00:47:49
			me like that?
		
00:47:49 --> 00:47:50
			I just asked you how much Quran you
		
00:47:50 --> 00:47:50
			read at night.
		
00:47:50 --> 00:47:51
			Why did you have to scold me that
		
00:47:51 --> 00:47:51
			night?
		
00:47:52 --> 00:47:55
			So when Tamim, a daddy radiAllahu ta'ala
		
00:47:55 --> 00:47:58
			anhu, saw him upset, Tamim radiAllahu anhu felt
		
00:47:58 --> 00:47:58
			bad.
		
00:47:59 --> 00:48:01
			So Tamim radiAllahu ta'ala anhu says, أَلَا
		
00:48:01 --> 00:48:04
			أُحَدِّثُكَ يَبْنَأَخِي He said, let me speak to
		
00:48:04 --> 00:48:04
			you, O my nephew.
		
00:48:04 --> 00:48:06
			Let me explain to you, O my nephew.
		
00:48:06 --> 00:48:10
			He said, أَرَأَيْتَ إِن كُنْتُ أَنَا مُؤْمِنًا قَوِيًّا
		
00:48:10 --> 00:48:11
			What if I am this great mu'min?
		
00:48:11 --> 00:48:13
			What if I told you I pray a
		
00:48:13 --> 00:48:13
			lot?
		
00:48:13 --> 00:48:15
			وَأَنْتَ مُؤْمِنٌ ضَعِيفٌ And you're a weak believer.
		
00:48:16 --> 00:48:18
			And then you would feel despair.
		
00:48:19 --> 00:48:20
			Because I tell you I read this much
		
00:48:20 --> 00:48:21
			and then you can't read that much and
		
00:48:21 --> 00:48:22
			then you would feel despair.
		
00:48:23 --> 00:48:24
			And he said, what if the opposite is
		
00:48:24 --> 00:48:24
			true?
		
00:48:25 --> 00:48:27
			Where I read very little and then you'd
		
00:48:27 --> 00:48:27
			be disappointed.
		
00:48:28 --> 00:48:30
			You'd say, oh, the sahaba of the Prophet
		
00:48:30 --> 00:48:31
			ﷺ, they don't read enough.
		
00:48:31 --> 00:48:32
			So he said, what's the benefit in me
		
00:48:32 --> 00:48:34
			telling you how much Quran I read at
		
00:48:34 --> 00:48:34
			night?
		
00:48:34 --> 00:48:35
			So he said, I'm not trying to shame
		
00:48:35 --> 00:48:37
			you, but I just want you to understand
		
00:48:37 --> 00:48:40
			this is something personal between a person and
		
00:48:40 --> 00:48:40
			Allah ﷻ.
		
00:48:41 --> 00:48:44
			Now with that, subhanAllah, what's narrated from his
		
00:48:44 --> 00:48:47
			children, and this is incredible.
		
00:48:47 --> 00:48:49
			أَنَّ تَمِيمًا الدَّارِي And this is a Zahabi,
		
00:48:49 --> 00:48:51
			rahimAllah, records this as well as the other
		
00:48:51 --> 00:48:52
			Ibn Hibban.
		
00:48:53 --> 00:48:56
			He says that one night he slept without
		
00:48:56 --> 00:48:56
			praying tahajjud.
		
00:48:57 --> 00:48:59
			So he missed his wurd at night.
		
00:49:00 --> 00:49:05
			فَقَامَ سَنَةً لَمْ يَنَمْ فِيهَا عِقُوبَةً لِلَّذِي صَنَعَةً
		
00:49:05 --> 00:49:07
			So he spent an entire year, he took
		
00:49:07 --> 00:49:09
			an oath on himself that I will not
		
00:49:09 --> 00:49:11
			miss a single night in qiyam for an
		
00:49:11 --> 00:49:13
			entire year as a punishment for missing that
		
00:49:13 --> 00:49:14
			one night.
		
00:49:14 --> 00:49:16
			And this is one of the narrations that's
		
00:49:16 --> 00:49:19
			used to suggest that it's permissible and sometimes
		
00:49:19 --> 00:49:21
			it's good to make an oath on yourself
		
00:49:21 --> 00:49:22
			to say for example, let's say that you
		
00:49:22 --> 00:49:24
			missed the sadaqah, you missed the salah, to
		
00:49:24 --> 00:49:27
			say that I will, in replacement of it,
		
00:49:27 --> 00:49:28
			multiply.
		
00:49:29 --> 00:49:32
			عِقُوبَةً as a punishment for myself, punishment in
		
00:49:32 --> 00:49:33
			the sense as a means of disciplining myself
		
00:49:33 --> 00:49:36
			so that I don't fall back in that
		
00:49:36 --> 00:49:36
			again.
		
00:49:36 --> 00:49:38
			And so let's say for example, you missed
		
00:49:38 --> 00:49:39
			the sunnah of fajr.
		
00:49:39 --> 00:49:41
			So this time you won't just pray two
		
00:49:41 --> 00:49:43
			rak'ahs at the time of dhuha, but
		
00:49:43 --> 00:49:45
			you'll pray four or six or eight rak
		
00:49:45 --> 00:49:45
			'ahs instead.
		
00:49:46 --> 00:49:46
			Right?
		
00:49:46 --> 00:49:48
			As a punishment for that.
		
00:49:49 --> 00:49:53
			And in that regard, in his fame that
		
00:49:53 --> 00:49:56
			was unintentional but acquired due to that, due
		
00:49:56 --> 00:49:58
			to that righteousness, this was a man who
		
00:49:58 --> 00:50:00
			assumed the position in the khilafah of Umar
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:01
			bin Khattab رضي الله تعالى عنه that was
		
00:50:01 --> 00:50:02
			very special.
		
00:50:02 --> 00:50:03
			And I'll wrap up insha'Allah ta'ala
		
00:50:03 --> 00:50:05
			if the brothers can move forward to make
		
00:50:05 --> 00:50:06
			space for those that have come in.
		
00:50:06 --> 00:50:07
			Just those of you that are here, just
		
00:50:07 --> 00:50:09
			move forward insha'Allah ta'ala without knocking
		
00:50:09 --> 00:50:10
			over the camera please.
		
00:50:11 --> 00:50:12
			If you were to walk in the masjid
		
00:50:13 --> 00:50:15
			at the time of Sayyiduna Umar رضي الله
		
00:50:15 --> 00:50:18
			تعالى عنه, Umar رضي الله تعالى عنه gave
		
00:50:18 --> 00:50:22
			Tamim al-Dari the permission to teach on
		
00:50:22 --> 00:50:25
			the minbar for hours before him or after
		
00:50:25 --> 00:50:27
			him and at different times of the day.
		
00:50:27 --> 00:50:28
			So he was a teacher in the masjid
		
00:50:28 --> 00:50:30
			of the Prophet ﷺ in Medina in the
		
00:50:30 --> 00:50:31
			time of Umar رضي الله تعالى عنه.
		
00:50:32 --> 00:50:34
			On top of that, Umar رضي الله تعالى
		
00:50:34 --> 00:50:36
			عنه allowed him to teach before the khutbah
		
00:50:36 --> 00:50:37
			on Jum'ah.
		
00:50:37 --> 00:50:38
			So it was common in the time of
		
00:50:38 --> 00:50:40
			Sayyiduna Umar رضي الله عنه to walk in
		
00:50:40 --> 00:50:42
			and to see Tamim relating some of the
		
00:50:42 --> 00:50:44
			stories from the people of the book while
		
00:50:44 --> 00:50:48
			doing his tafsir before the time of Salat
		
00:50:48 --> 00:50:49
			al-Jum'ah would start.
		
00:50:49 --> 00:50:50
			On top of that.
		
00:50:51 --> 00:50:53
			If you were to walk in, Salat al
		
00:50:53 --> 00:50:54
			-Tarawih in Ramadan.
		
00:50:54 --> 00:50:55
			Allahumma ballighna Ramadan.
		
00:50:56 --> 00:50:56
			Allahumma ameen.
		
00:50:57 --> 00:50:59
			Umar رضي الله تعالى عنه had appointed two
		
00:50:59 --> 00:51:01
			imams for Salat al-Tarawih.
		
00:51:02 --> 00:51:05
			Ubay ibn Ka'b and Tamim al-Dari.
		
00:51:05 --> 00:51:06
			May Allah be pleased with them both.
		
00:51:07 --> 00:51:08
			So these are the two imams.
		
00:51:09 --> 00:51:10
			If you were to walk in and pray
		
00:51:10 --> 00:51:12
			Salat al-Tarawih in the time of Umar
		
00:51:12 --> 00:51:15
			رضي الله تعالى عنه and that is his
		
00:51:15 --> 00:51:16
			devotion of the Quran.
		
00:51:16 --> 00:51:18
			And Anas ibn Malik رضي الله تعالى عنه
		
00:51:18 --> 00:51:19
			says something so beautiful about him.
		
00:51:20 --> 00:51:23
			He says about Tamim al-Dari, أَنَّهُ اشْتَرَى
		
00:51:23 --> 00:51:28
			رِدَاءً بِأَلْفِ دِرْهَمْ يَخْرُجُ فِيهِ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ Tamim
		
00:51:28 --> 00:51:30
			was not a fancy dresser.
		
00:51:30 --> 00:51:32
			But he had a particular garment that he
		
00:51:32 --> 00:51:33
			purchased for a thousand dirhams.
		
00:51:34 --> 00:51:35
			It's a lot of money.
		
00:51:36 --> 00:51:38
			And he wore it to every Salat.
		
00:51:38 --> 00:51:41
			خُذُوا زِينَتَكُمْ عِندَ كُلِّ مَسْجِدٍ So he wore
		
00:51:41 --> 00:51:44
			this particular garment in accordance with what Allah
		
00:51:44 --> 00:51:46
			says to take your beauty to the masjid.
		
00:51:46 --> 00:51:48
			He wore this particular garment to the masjid
		
00:51:48 --> 00:51:48
			for Salat.
		
00:51:48 --> 00:51:52
			And then he had another garment, and this
		
00:51:52 --> 00:51:54
			goes back to, subhanAllah, the Ramadan thing.
		
00:51:55 --> 00:51:57
			He had another garment that he used to
		
00:51:57 --> 00:52:01
			wear in the night التي تُرجَى فِيهَا لَيْلَةُ
		
00:52:01 --> 00:52:03
			القَدْرِ The night that he hoped was Laylatul
		
00:52:03 --> 00:52:03
			Qadr.
		
00:52:04 --> 00:52:05
			So he had this garment that he brought
		
00:52:05 --> 00:52:07
			out once a year, this Imam in Tarawih,
		
00:52:08 --> 00:52:09
			in the time of Sayyidina Umar رضي الله
		
00:52:09 --> 00:52:09
			عنه.
		
00:52:10 --> 00:52:12
			And if you saw Tamim wearing that garment,
		
00:52:12 --> 00:52:14
			you were like, it must be it.
		
00:52:14 --> 00:52:16
			If Tamim al-Dari thinks it's Laylatul Qadr,
		
00:52:16 --> 00:52:19
			then hopefully it's Laylatul Qadr, right?
		
00:52:19 --> 00:52:21
			So he had these two special garments in
		
00:52:21 --> 00:52:22
			that regard.
		
00:52:22 --> 00:52:24
			And I'll end inshaAllah ta'ala, I'll have
		
00:52:24 --> 00:52:25
			to fast forward to the time of his
		
00:52:25 --> 00:52:25
			death.
		
00:52:27 --> 00:52:29
			Like Jarir رضي الله عنه, he left Medina
		
00:52:29 --> 00:52:30
			during the fitna.
		
00:52:30 --> 00:52:32
			So in the time of Uthman رضي الله
		
00:52:32 --> 00:52:35
			عنه, once he saw the fitna started, he
		
00:52:35 --> 00:52:36
			decided to go back to Palestine.
		
00:52:37 --> 00:52:39
			Go back to Bilad al-Sham, go back
		
00:52:39 --> 00:52:40
			to Palestine.
		
00:52:40 --> 00:52:43
			At that time, the Futuhat, Islam had spread
		
00:52:43 --> 00:52:44
			now to the area of Palestine.
		
00:52:44 --> 00:52:47
			And there's something extremely special.
		
00:52:48 --> 00:52:52
			Tamim رضي الله عنه, Ikramah narrates that when
		
00:52:52 --> 00:52:56
			he became Muslim, he said, يا رسول الله,
		
00:52:57 --> 00:53:01
			إِنَّ اللَّهَ مُظْهِرُكَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا فَهَبْ لِي
		
00:53:01 --> 00:53:05
			قَرْيَةِ مِن بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ He said, O Messenger
		
00:53:05 --> 00:53:07
			of Allah, Allah is going to grant you
		
00:53:07 --> 00:53:09
			victory over the entire earth.
		
00:53:10 --> 00:53:14
			So can you allot for me a portion
		
00:53:14 --> 00:53:17
			of the land of Bethlehem from now?
		
00:53:18 --> 00:53:19
			Think about it.
		
00:53:20 --> 00:53:21
			Islam has not spread there yet.
		
00:53:22 --> 00:53:23
			But he's saying, when Islam gets there, because
		
00:53:23 --> 00:53:26
			I know it will, can you, ya Rasulullah,
		
00:53:26 --> 00:53:30
			write me a document of a waqf of
		
00:53:30 --> 00:53:32
			that land in Bethlehem for me and my
		
00:53:32 --> 00:53:32
			family?
		
00:53:33 --> 00:53:37
			And the Prophet ﷺ says, هي لك, it's
		
00:53:37 --> 00:53:37
			for you.
		
00:53:38 --> 00:53:39
			He allotted that land.
		
00:53:39 --> 00:53:41
			And so when the time of Umar رضي
		
00:53:41 --> 00:53:43
			الله عنه came, and that land came into
		
00:53:43 --> 00:53:47
			Islam, Umar رضي الله عنه said, أنا شاهد
		
00:53:47 --> 00:53:48
			ذلك.
		
00:53:49 --> 00:53:51
			I am a witness to the Prophet ﷺ
		
00:53:51 --> 00:53:53
			gifting you that area of Bethlehem.
		
00:53:54 --> 00:53:55
			So he says, it is for you.
		
00:53:55 --> 00:53:57
			He says ليس لك أن تبيع but you
		
00:53:57 --> 00:53:58
			should not ever sell it.
		
00:53:59 --> 00:54:03
			And so that land remains in the hands
		
00:54:03 --> 00:54:06
			of the family of Tamim until now, the
		
00:54:06 --> 00:54:09
			descendants of Tamim and Dari maintain that area
		
00:54:09 --> 00:54:11
			as a waqf of Palestine, at least the
		
00:54:11 --> 00:54:13
			parts of it that are not occupied.
		
00:54:13 --> 00:54:17
			And subhanAllah, until this day, we find that
		
00:54:17 --> 00:54:20
			there is the descendants of him are far
		
00:54:20 --> 00:54:21
			and wide within the land of Palestine.
		
00:54:22 --> 00:54:23
			And I want to just show one more
		
00:54:23 --> 00:54:26
			picture بإذن الله تعالى, which is the grave
		
00:54:26 --> 00:54:28
			of Tamim and Dari رضي الله عنه.
		
00:54:30 --> 00:54:32
			And it's fitting that we end this season
		
00:54:32 --> 00:54:33
			of the first with this.
		
00:54:34 --> 00:54:37
			This is the neglected grave of Tamim and
		
00:54:37 --> 00:54:37
			Dari.
		
00:54:37 --> 00:54:40
			It exists in an Israeli settlement in Jibril
		
00:54:40 --> 00:54:41
			in occupied Khalil.
		
00:54:43 --> 00:54:45
			And so he died 40 years after hijrah.
		
00:54:46 --> 00:54:47
			And this is his grave.
		
00:54:47 --> 00:54:48
			And this is where he is.
		
00:54:49 --> 00:54:51
			And there are Israeli settlers that live to
		
00:54:51 --> 00:54:53
			every single direction of the current grave of
		
00:54:53 --> 00:54:55
			Tamim and Dari رضي الله تعالى عنه.
		
00:54:55 --> 00:54:57
			It's not the sanctity of the grave.
		
00:54:58 --> 00:54:59
			It's the sanctity of the person and the
		
00:54:59 --> 00:55:00
			message.
		
00:55:01 --> 00:55:03
			That you never forget that this land was
		
00:55:03 --> 00:55:05
			long occupied before a genocide in Gaza started.
		
00:55:06 --> 00:55:08
			And this was our situation.
		
00:55:08 --> 00:55:09
			And while the Imam al-Zahabi رضي الله
		
00:55:09 --> 00:55:11
			عنه was writing this book, he was writing
		
00:55:11 --> 00:55:13
			in glory about the land of Palestine and
		
00:55:13 --> 00:55:15
			about the place of Tamim and the place
		
00:55:15 --> 00:55:15
			of these people.
		
00:55:16 --> 00:55:18
			And this is where we find ourselves right
		
00:55:18 --> 00:55:19
			now.
		
00:55:19 --> 00:55:22
			May Allah سبحانه وتعالى free the land beneath
		
00:55:22 --> 00:55:23
			him and the land around him.
		
00:55:23 --> 00:55:25
			And may Allah سبحانه وتعالى free al-Masjid
		
00:55:25 --> 00:55:27
			al-Aqsa and free all of the occupied
		
00:55:27 --> 00:55:28
			land and allow us to be gathered there
		
00:55:28 --> 00:55:29
			in this life.
		
00:55:30 --> 00:55:32
			And then to be gathered with these companions
		
00:55:32 --> 00:55:33
			and with our beloved Prophet صلى الله عليه
		
00:55:33 --> 00:55:34
			وسلم في الفردوس الأعلى.
		
00:55:35 --> 00:55:35
			اللهم آمين.
		
00:55:36 --> 00:55:39
			جزاكم الله خيرا والسلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته.
