Nikita Billa

00:00:59 --> 00:01:04

life lessons from the stories of the prophets in the Quran, events

00:01:04 --> 00:01:08

and incidents in and around the lives of the prophets Peace be

00:01:08 --> 00:01:13

upon all of them. Incidents gathered from the book of Allah.

00:01:15 --> 00:01:19

Be no who was a man who Allah had blessed with an extended life.

00:01:20 --> 00:01:24

And he spent numerous years preaching the message of Allah.

00:01:25 --> 00:01:28

Yet, he only had a handful of followers

00:01:30 --> 00:01:33

that we know he's one of your loved one of the five foremost

00:01:33 --> 00:01:35

human beings to have ever lived.

00:01:37 --> 00:01:41

And an entire chapter recited this evening, an entire chapter in the

00:01:41 --> 00:01:44

Holy Quran is titled Surah Noor.

00:01:46 --> 00:01:49

Now, when we consider the accounts of Nicaea, you know, are they

00:01:49 --> 00:01:54

Salam in the Quran, we get so much guidance from his life,

00:01:55 --> 00:01:59

and to access some of the innumerable lessons that we learn

00:01:59 --> 00:02:02

from the life of this great Prophet, peace be upon him. And of

00:02:02 --> 00:02:07

those around him. We focused on two dimensions of his life, his

00:02:07 --> 00:02:09

mission, and his household.

00:02:11 --> 00:02:12

As for his mission,

00:02:13 --> 00:02:17

he conveyed his message in basic terms, which could easily be

00:02:17 --> 00:02:18

understood by all.

00:02:19 --> 00:02:26

He preached in private and in public. He engaged the layman as

00:02:26 --> 00:02:31

well as the leaders, political or community leaders. He continued

00:02:31 --> 00:02:35

preaching, even though he had a very few followers.

00:02:37 --> 00:02:42

And when there was an impending flood, he built an ark, to reach

00:02:42 --> 00:02:42

safety.

00:02:44 --> 00:02:50

Each of those points is a story on its own, a lesson in detail. But

00:02:50 --> 00:02:55

nonetheless, from all of these, we deduce outstanding lessons in

00:02:55 --> 00:03:01

productivity from Allah, you Salah one, in conveying his message in a

00:03:01 --> 00:03:02

basic way,

00:03:03 --> 00:03:07

in a way that everyone can can comprehend it. He kept it simple.

00:03:08 --> 00:03:12

In preaching private and in public, he diversified his

00:03:12 --> 00:03:18

approach and engaged in the leaders amongst the people. He

00:03:18 --> 00:03:23

rationalized that if he if people in power, if the people who were

00:03:23 --> 00:03:26

in power were amenable to the message, then they can influence

00:03:26 --> 00:03:31

other people to be more receptive of that message. Or at least he

00:03:31 --> 00:03:36

could neutralize the negativity by engaging them. So he employed what

00:03:36 --> 00:03:39

we call positive tactics.

00:03:40 --> 00:03:43

Despite preaching for a very, very long time, more than all the

00:03:43 --> 00:03:47

prophets perhaps combined, that we know of in the Quran, he did not

00:03:47 --> 00:03:51

read the lack of number of followers detract him from his

00:03:51 --> 00:03:57

task, he realized the fact we're Marlena ELO Bulaga mobian. That

00:03:57 --> 00:04:00

job was merely to convey the message to be an example for

00:04:00 --> 00:04:03

people to follow or not. That's their choice. In other words, he

00:04:03 --> 00:04:05

kept focused on his mission.

00:04:06 --> 00:04:10

And when there was an approaching flood, he did not wait for the

00:04:10 --> 00:04:14

flood to come before he acted. He prepared for it by building an ark

00:04:15 --> 00:04:20

to save as many people and animals as possible. This shows strategic

00:04:20 --> 00:04:25

planning and brings to attention the fact that planning can help us

00:04:25 --> 00:04:28

in the sense that though you cannot change the past, you can

00:04:28 --> 00:04:31

prepare for the future. So when you keep these points in mind, he

00:04:31 --> 00:04:36

kept it simple. The best diversified his approach, use

00:04:36 --> 00:04:41

positive tactic kept his focus and planned strategically.

00:04:43 --> 00:04:46

Another dimension that you can look at, from which you can learn

00:04:46 --> 00:04:51

tremendous lessons is the household of nabina Allah Islam.

00:04:51 --> 00:04:54

Now if you reflect upon the Stories of the Prophets in their

00:04:54 --> 00:04:56

households that are documented in the Quran

00:04:58 --> 00:04:59

Allah mentions for example,

00:05:00 --> 00:05:03

weatherable Allah Huma says in Medina Amanullah interferon is

00:05:04 --> 00:05:07

called probability and the Cabezon field Jannetty when a genie for

00:05:07 --> 00:05:11

our family when a genie mineral called me volley mean, well now

00:05:11 --> 00:05:15

remember that the acid that follows from the fact Nafi him it

00:05:16 --> 00:05:20

was Kalamata Robbia what could to be what can be done ethical

00:05:20 --> 00:05:20

quality?

00:05:21 --> 00:05:22

These are two

00:05:23 --> 00:05:25

personalities referred to in the Quran.

00:05:27 --> 00:05:30

The Quran highlights the outstanding, courageous and

00:05:30 --> 00:05:34

principled stand of say the ossia, the wife of the Pharaoh, who

00:05:34 --> 00:05:38

brought up Prophet Lusardi salaam, and who herself believed in the

00:05:38 --> 00:05:43

truth, and she brought him up and nurtured him that prophet in the

00:05:43 --> 00:05:44

house of the federal.

00:05:46 --> 00:05:50

Allah also testifies to the nobility and the purity of the

00:05:50 --> 00:05:54

resolute and determined Seder Maryam, the mother of a Sally

00:05:54 --> 00:06:00

salon, who boldly presented herself to society, a society that

00:06:00 --> 00:06:05

questioned her chastity and her integrity. So both Asya and Miriam

00:06:05 --> 00:06:10

have had prophets in their own Meriam son was a prophet. And Asya

00:06:10 --> 00:06:14

had a person she brought up in the House who was a prophet. So both

00:06:14 --> 00:06:18

asiyah and Meriam had prophets in their homes, and both were in

00:06:18 --> 00:06:23

social environments that were negative towards them, yet they

00:06:23 --> 00:06:28

were true believers, as well as both of them were embodiments of

00:06:28 --> 00:06:33

righteousness and of piety. Now contrast that with the House of

00:06:33 --> 00:06:34

Lords Malasana

00:06:36 --> 00:06:41

in the house, who gave us a guide to his people, his own life in his

00:06:41 --> 00:06:46

own house, just like the wife of Libby looked at a salon did not

00:06:46 --> 00:06:50

accept the message. And Allah makes reference to that also in

00:06:50 --> 00:06:53

the Quran, what about bearable Allah who must suddenly Lavina

00:06:53 --> 00:06:58

Cafaro Murata? No one were absolute QA but anything I

00:06:58 --> 00:07:01

bardenas all the for her Anita Houma phenom.

00:07:03 --> 00:07:08

Allah He and Allah provides for us an example of the wife of me and

00:07:08 --> 00:07:09

the wife of Luke are they

00:07:10 --> 00:07:11

both were married

00:07:12 --> 00:07:16

to two of our righteous servers. These women were married to two of

00:07:16 --> 00:07:18

our righteous servant whom they betrayed.

00:07:19 --> 00:07:23

And the fact that they were made to these two righteous levels,

00:07:23 --> 00:07:26

these two prophets did not benefit these two women.

00:07:27 --> 00:07:33

The lesson for us is how some some search for the truth and some

00:07:33 --> 00:07:37

recognize the truth and defend the truth. Despite tremendous

00:07:37 --> 00:07:42

challenges like Asya and Maria malema, Salah, and me are those to

00:07:42 --> 00:07:46

whom truth comes to the house within their house and they still

00:07:46 --> 00:07:50

do not embrace it. Some scary reality in the face, and they

00:07:50 --> 00:07:51

still deny it.

00:07:53 --> 00:07:56

So we pray the prayer for Beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa

00:07:56 --> 00:08:01

salam, to make us of those who are inclined towards the way of ASEA

00:08:01 --> 00:08:07

and Maria and not to be of those who are inclined towards the wife

00:08:08 --> 00:08:12

of Ruth and new Halima Salaam. Those who saw reality who were

00:08:12 --> 00:08:16

prophet who came into their home in yet they denied it. So the dua

00:08:16 --> 00:08:19

of Rasul Allah who Allah wa salam alaikum

00:08:21 --> 00:08:28

wa Baltierra bow tillow What zuccon ht Inaba, Allah, let us see

00:08:28 --> 00:08:33

as it is, and grant us the capacity to follow what is right.

00:08:33 --> 00:08:37

Oh Allah, let us recognize falsehood and wrong for what it

00:08:37 --> 00:08:43

is, and grant has the capacity to avoid it. A cola cola the worst of

00:08:43 --> 00:08:46

it Allah wa salam aleikum wa rahmatullah.
