Allah
tells
the believers
to enter into Islam
completely.
That means that entering Islam is not just fulfilling the five
commandments, the shahada, the Salah, the SOM, Hajj and zakat.
Rather entering into Islam completely means in every facet of
our life, meaning in our business, is our business? Is our business?
Permissible? Is our income? Permissible? Is our relationship?
Permissible is have I distributed my inheritance correctly in every
aspect this Deen gives us guidance, not just for Salah or
how to conduct ourselves inside the masjid for our business, our
marriage, our divorce, inheritance, everything you think
of, in fact, so much so that this Deen even teaches us how to use
the washroom,
how to use the washroom once
munafiq
mocked Salman al Fawzi, Rahima Radi Allahu aksen, their Deen
teaches you everything. It even teaches you how to do istinja. So
then he said, Yes, it does teach it our deen does teach that. And
then he said, as a praise that this deen is so complete, it
teaches us how to go to the washroom, what to say, and we
enter the washroom, what to say, and we leave the washroom, how to
clean ourselves. So this deen is complete. It gives us guidance in
every aspect of our life. Now, Allah subhanaw is telling us to
enter into this Deen completely.
So entering into this Deen completely means following the
commandments of Allah subhanaw, fulfilling all His commandments,
staying away from all his prohibitions.
What prevents us from entering to this Deen completely is, at times,
ignorance, the lack of knowledge that we have of these Deen, of
this Deen, or incorrect knowledge that we have of this Deen.
And
just to give you examples, for example, if someone did not know
the hadith of Rasulullah, sallAllahu, alayhi wa sallam that
Malaika, don't enter a house in which there is a dog, or in which
there's a dog or a picture a person that does not have this
knowledge, then he may hang a picture on the wall, a picture of
an animate object, a pick a frame, you know, for himself or his
family on the walk. And now, because of that, despite he's not
doing it because he has aversion to the Hadith. No, he does not
know the Hadith, and because of that, one action of His mercy is
not able to enter his house,
all because of a lack of knowledge,
if a person doesn't understand
the gender roles that the Quran has made for men and women, a
person falls into many problems. The Quran is very clear the child
is that men have a certain role. Women have a certain role,
that men are supposed to be the caretakers. It's their primary
responsibility to
you know, fulfill the problem, to fulfill the that they to provide a
house, to provide financial support, and the wife's primary
responsibility is take care of the
kids. If a person doesn't understand that, then he will have
many problems.
And if a person does not know that, when it comes to marriage,
women should have a Wali. When it comes to traveling, women should
travel with a mahram. This is, this a part of our deep
or if someone has an incorrect knowledge, he has heard these
things, but it's been watered down for him that no, this is, you
know, this is not, this is not necessary. It's just something
preferable, or it's nothing to do with this Deen. These are some
additions made in later on. Then a person, when he has this watered
down version of Deen, then he will also make many mistakes, and that
will again prevent him from entering into Islam completely. Ya
ya. Ladeena Ahmed, the Hulu filmi kafa, the lack of knowledge is
many times what prevents us into entering this Deen completely, and
sometimes what prevents us from entering this Deen completely. We
have knowledge. We have knowledge, but we have this inferiority
complex.
And this is the same complex as the Banu Israel had
Musa alayhi salam when he crossed the when he crossed the Banu
Israel a miracle that took place. They crossed the Red Sea. Allah
subhanaw had made an opening for them part of the sea, and they
crossed right after they crossed the Red Sea.
Allah says in sulbaka, wa jal, ibane, Israel, Bata, wala pumi, ya
Kuna, Allah, Asmaa, Mila, hum, that they crossed the Red Sea and
then they came across these people that were worshiping idols.
So they said, All Yang, Musa, jalana, Ilahi, Kamala hum, Ali Ka
that O Musa, you make an idol for us, like they have an idol.
Just think, what has just happened? Right now, they just
witnessed a miracle of Allah, subhanaw Jaza. They crossed the
Red Sea.
And now, why is it that
now they're asking to worship an idol, where they're asking Musa
alaihi salam to create an idol for them? What's going on.
It's this inferiority complex that was ingrained in them.
They were enslaved in Missouri, in Egypt for centuries. They were
slaves for centuries, and they saw Pharaoh and his people that they
were worshiping idols
and
them not even realizing the they had given some sort of reverence
to these idols that these people who are above us, have authority
over us, have are financially better off. They're worshiping
idols their lifestyle is probably superior to our lifestyle.
So because of this inferiority complex that they had when they
crossed the Red Sea, they saw the miracle of Allah SubhanAllah.
Despite that, they asked Musa alaysan to also give us something
like this, give us an idol so that we can
worship. And this is very similar to our situation. Rasulullah told
us that you will follow the step footsteps of the previous nation,
step by step, so much so that if one of them committed Zina *
with his mother, there will be someone in my um mother also to
the same
throughout the Quran. You have mentioned of Banu Israel, the
Israelites, again and again.
And after Fatiha, Surat Al Baqarah, a bit into Surat Al
Baqarah, you have the mention of the Israelites again and again.
There is a lot of lesson that ALLAH, ALLAH SubhanA, wants us to
learn from them. What happened to them. The same is happening to us
and the but the situation is that over there, they were enslaved. So
they knew they were slaves. They were subordinate to them. But many
times, what happens is that we don't know we are enslaved. We've
been colonized. We've been mentally colonized, but we don't
realize the fact that we've been colonized. We've been colonized.
We we don't say it that our way is inferior, but we act like it.
We act like it. How? So
we don't want to say the salon to someone
in a work setting? Why? Because the standard is halal. But what
benefit will Halo give you in this dunya or the akhira salaam gives
you benefit? It's a dua you make for the believer. Rasulallah
SallAllahu, alayhi salam said, ashallah beynakum that spreads
Salam amongst yourselves.
Rasulallah SallAllahu, alayhi wasallam said that, should I tell
you something that will make you enter Jannah, love one another.
And should I tell you what will make you love one another? Spread
Salam amongst each other. So this is a part of our deen to spread
Salam.
So just like that, there are many things which are a part of our
deen. We don't say it, but sometimes our actions show it that
we,
we believe, or we think, that these actions are inferior, and
their actions are superior. Their lifestyle is superior.
The West is superior. And you see this happening all around. You see
the Muslim countries. They want to imitate the West, just like they
have their women in sports. We also want to put our women in
sports. We want to imitate them. So ALLAH SubhanA is commanding us
to enter this Deen completely.
And to enter this Deen completely, a person needs to have knowledge.
Then he needs to have this desire to act upon this knowledge. He
shouldn't be putting into any complex
a person needs to have love for Allah and His Messenger,
because Allah adukum hat Akun AHA Bailey, I mean Walidah, that none
of you are a true believer until I am more beloved to him than his
parents, his children, all of mankind.
So how can we make the love of Rasulullah sallallahu wasallam
superior above the love of our own mother?
How can that happen? Because when we are born and as a child, we
don't know who rasool Allah.
Unless,
unless we learn about them, we don't know who rasulallah means,
but children, they have an innate love and muhabbat for their
mother, not for rasulallahu, alayhi wa sallam. So how is it
that this child is being told to love the messenger of Allahu,
Alaihe Salam, more than your own mother? How can you build that
love when you are not born with that love? You're not born with
the love of the rasulallah. So the step to that is first you have to
understand and rationalize that Rasulullah. Sallallahu alayhi
salam is a greater morph sin. He has more Ihsan and favor upon me
than my own mother. It's intellectual. You have to
understand that the favor of rasulallah, sallAllahu wa Salam on
me is greater than the favor of my mom, greater than the favor of my
dad and anyone else. Why? Because he was the means to give this Kali
Mala ILAHA, illallah, Muhammad, rasulallah.
So you go back, it comes to Rasulullah, because of him, we
know how to live our life. He should. He was an example for us.
We have to rationally understand that rasulallah wa alasam is a
greater Morsi than our mother.
Then
this rational love
we It has to become more deep. It has to become more personal. It
has to become innate with us, innate in us, just like the love
we have for her mother. And how will they become more innate?
Is that when you hear Rasulullah, what rasulallah said, When you
enter those places which are beloved to Allah and His
Messenger, sallAllahu, sallam, Ahab will be Ali Allahi, masajid.
Ah, that the most beloved of places are the masajid wa Abu,
Dhabi. Ali Allah, Yasu Abu, and the word the most of detested
places are the bazaar, the marketplace. So you have to seek
that company, see if they seek those people that have that love
of rasulallah wa sallam, and only then this love of rasulallah can
come into our hearts and become innate, like the love that we and
has not just the same level of love we have for our mother that
we have for no it has to be much greater.
And this is something that the Sahaba Radi Allahu showed us.
Allah and
His Son, Abdul Rahman. This is after they both accepted Islam,
and they're talking so his son tells him to his dad, that, on the
day of brother, I saw you. On the day of brother, I saw you,
but you know you're you being my father. I went in a different
direction. Again, he was in the on the opposing army. He was with the
Quraysh. I saw you, but I went in a different direction
so Buckaroo the Allah, and says that if I had seen you, I would
have killed you.
Think, what is happening this person? What is he doing? He is
coming to oppose the Messenger of Allah, sallAllahu. He wants to
kill rasulallah, be it his own son, if I had seen you out of
kildiatin,
the love of rasulallah has to be that of that love wala Dina Amanu
a shad duq Bala, it has to be extreme. The love for Allah and
His Messenger has to be Ashad Allah SWT says, Those that have
Iman, they are intense in their love for all for Allah,
that's the love that we need to bring about and pull in quantum
pulling. Can was vashira to come one while you're not after muha.
What a jar to talk about. Masaki, not ahasuli. He was Jihad and
feasibility photography, Allah, Abu Asmaa, if your parents and all
these are and your business, potijan, taksha nakasada, that you
don't want this to go down. You don't want it to become profit,
losing your business. You don't want any any
harm coming to your business and your houses. If these are more
beloved to you that Allah and His messenger and striving in His
path, Fatah rabbasul, then just wait for the punishment of Allah.
So may Allah give us knowledge it is Deen. And then May Allah grant
us this love for Allah and His Messenger, sallAllahu, alayhi wa
sallam, subhanAllah,
