Good Cause should have a share in the blessing of the good goes. And
whoever supports aligns himself or herself, aids in the backs, a bad
cause shall be held accountable and answerable for their part in
involvement with that bad or the evil thing. Indeed, Allah is Ever
observant of everything.
In Islamic history, we can draw a practical example of what this is
the first of those who align themselves with good and of
course, those who oppose the good and align themselves and chose to
follow the opposite of that good and follow the wrong cause.
On the one hand, you have Abu Lahab, the blood uncle of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, Abu Lahab was highly
revered. In his time, among the respected tribe of the curation
Mecca. He was considered the most noble of people in terms of
lineage. But this lineage, there's no law hauling, he while he was,
in fact, no family of the Prophet, no relation of the Prophet, not
even making, not even Adam,
in fact, below, a man from a foreign land of his embassy, Nia,
but he's now Ethiopia, was enslaved in Mecca.
He aligned himself with the message of the prophets of Allah,
Allah He was one of them, was tortured because of his belief, by
his master, who may have been full of who, by the way, was the friend
of the prophets, uncle, Abu Lahab.
Satan a biller, and like Abdullah, stood by the truth
and in fact, accompany the prophets Allah Allah, Allah wa
salam, on every expedition, the Prophet went on every expedition
Bilal was by the side of the Prophet, and he never had any time
disassociated himself from what was good, what was right from the
message of the truth.
So UBC power of association, Abu Lahab blood relative of the
Prophet, yet dissociated from the message of the Prophet and what
does Allah say about him, but to be love you with his disdain, but
Allah by name in the Quran. On the other hand, we are beloved. Then
one thing of Islam. When the Prophet lived the prayer, he was
the one who call the people to the prayer of the Prophet, the one who
when the Prophet eventually entered Bucha, the historical
document and all the coloration looking there, and here comes the
Sula with two people on the side and on the side for Marina Rasul
yet who will Makka Fosun. We're in our I'm Yemeni beloved one
yesterday, Osama bin Zayed and when the Prophet entered Makkah,
they watched in astonishment in amazement. And as he entered
victoriously, on one side was Osama bin Zayed, on the other side
was beloved nearby.
Can you imagine the scene of these autocorrelation witnessing this
one slave who chose to stand with their nephew and then he was the
one who stood on the Prophet shoulders and broke down the idols
which Abu Lahab worshipped
and then also said Pooja Huck was about in in El Bartylla Carlos,
you have to imagine the scene to be able to appreciate the reality
in fact belong in that way. reenacted the act of the prophets
forefather Ibrahim the idol breaker.
The point is beloved chose the sight of goodness and truth and
because of the power of association with goodness sake
nebula rose from humiliation to elevation from humility to true
nobility
we say sage nebula and by the way, there are people who say you can't
say said nebula just want to put that addressed once and for all
because people come with all nonsensical issues. You can't say
never Sula, you can't say say bla bla, once and for all, that we
terminate this sahih al Bukhari sahih al Bukhari Karna. Amaya,
Paul Abu Bakr in say you do what attackers are using Jonnie Bilal
al Bukhari kita. For volume Sahaba said number say, Abu Bakr our
master the emancipate of slave, emancipated our say you say you
dinner Bilal, who's our master a nobility say it is used by the
Sahaba for Sahaba. So this is in Bukhari, by the way, this notion
you can use the word sacred for the prophet of any personal
respect is totally nonsensical. I hope it is, by the way, so once
and for all. We don't bring up that point again. But from all of
this,
we realize the significance of association of aligning yourself
with what is good
and we find a beautiful example in the Quran Allah subhanho wa Taala
video
often speaks about water. So many is about water.
This liquid of life
and I think it's appropriate to use Windows Zilla Minister Ma Ma
Allah sends down rain from the sky. Let us consider the rain drop
from the sky as an example to illustrate the power of positive
association.
If a raindrop is caught in the hand, it is pure enough for
purification of the self, before salah, this sacred activity due to
purify ourselves that raindrop falling into our air is a means of
purification. And it is sufficient for sustenance, to break our fast
and to drink and sustain ourselves in that same drop of water to fall
in a Delta gutter, that water is worthy of washing your feet.
One to break your fast is good enough and to cleanse you, the
other one, not worthy enough of washing your feet. If it falls in
a hot appears like a diamond, and is a drop of water falls in an
oyster, it can become a pull.
The drop is the same,
but its existence and its worth depends on what and with what it
associates itself. That is the power of positive association.
Three points we can glean from the lessons of today. One, though Abu
Lahab was blood relation of the Prophet. He had family connection
at the highest level closes level with the prophet. He chose to
totally dissociate himself from the Prophet. And that's why it's a
Muslim get assaulted, man. But Bobby, I'm Alou lamb used to be
ugliness, if your bad deeds and your bad choices hold you back.
Your nobility will help you to go forward. Number two, wala Testa
will
realize the science of good can never be equated
to bad.
You know, in fact, today there was recycled polyester will be for
what the Yebo without our agenda capital coming in the recitation
the last two workouts that never came evil in full an impurity be
equated to purity and goodness. Those the preponderance of
negativity, the preponderance of evil may seem attractive to you,
but he can never be equal. So you say, Well, I can still be the
hustler to wellness a year. Never can, good and bad be the same.
They are distinct from one another. And finally, the primary
lesson of the power of positive association is always be
associated with what he's good, because I will just out in the
sun, the consequence of goodness is nothing else but goodness.
