tonkean I'm Salma Hayek moment or annual Karim nights of
empowerment, parables and wisdom from the Glorious Quran.
Allah subhanho wa Taala does not shy away from using a variety of
parables in the Quran.
And a variety of parables, irrespective of the subject,
provided that some lesson is conveyed through those parables.
Allah subhanaw taala for example, mentions in the Holy Quran in
surah baqarah In fact, he says in hola hola yesterday, a Yoruba
masala all the time from Africa for a marina menoufia Allah Munna
and who will happen to rob him. What Amala Dena kifaru Fire
Kowloon Amala are the Allahu Behala masala Behold, Allah does
not find it condescending in any way to offer a parable, even of a
little insects, or even something less than an insect. Those who
have attained faith, they know this is the truth from Allah the
sustainer whereas those who are stuck in denying the truth, they
say, What does Allah mean by these parables?
We have noted that parables are similes of Proverbs in the
Glorious Quran
affords us ethical insights, highlights noble virtues, they
illustrate valuable principles and of course most often provide moral
lessons.
So let us consider for tonight the parable of the Fli Allah subhanho
wa Taala says in the Quran is sort of hydrogen yeah you Hannah's
booty by Macedon first me Allah in the rumen do Nila Lai Yahoo Baba,
Allah, what He has to do with the bat che inliers Tokido mean, the
alpha Kalibo while not
all humankind, a parable is offered to you. So listen to it
attentively. Take note that those things whom you pray to those who
are idol worshipers, and you have God other than Allah, those things
whom you pray to, instead of Allah cannot even create a fly, even if
they were to combine all their collective efforts. And if a fly
snatches something from them, they cannot even retrieve it from the
fly, which indeed is the seeker from idols, and weak indeed, are
those idols from whom you are seeking something.
It is said that the Quraysh used to wipe the Kaaba with a sweet
scent.
And this sweet scent would often attract flies. And these flies
would sit on the idols, including Google who bar was remain idle in
the car by that time. So the simile in this verse intimates the
parable, that these idols that people worshipped. They could even
create a fly even less than that. They don't even have the ability
to wipe away your swipe away the flies that sit on them, and it
says in the flies, next is something from them. They can't
even retrieve it. How feeble is the ID? How feeble is the idol
worshippers reliance on the idol, and how feeble and weak are the
idols himself? The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said
in a hadith documented in the Muslim of Imam Muhammad to be
humble, who is more
wrong than the one who competes with Allah in creation or
competing aligning,
Allah says for Johanna, cool Mr. Halki, the return of the bar
button oh haha. And if you want to compete, then create for me one
kernel of corn,
one seed,
or even a fly from my creation, create something as simple as
that.
Now, we need to note that creation is something where you bring
something into existence from nothingness, creation, to bring
something into existence from nothingness. So even as human
beings we make things but we don't create things. We manufacture
things from existing material. We make glass from sand, we make
paper from wood, but the wood is there, the sand is there. We
manufacture we use the Ockel Allah gave us and manufacture things. We
don't bring something from nothingness into existence.
And therefore, Allah is the only creator Zadek hula hula Holly
Hokulea che la ilaha illa
Allah your Sustainer he indeed is the creator of all
exists, there is no deity worthy of worship, besides
the parable of beings to for the incapacity of anyone other than
Allah to actually create. And the challenge is, they can even create
a fly, and two points arrays who can create a fly. And who can
retrieve something from the fly, the idols can't even retrieve
something on the fly. Let's begin with the consideration of the
retrieving something from the fly. On the one hand, if a fly should
* something from the idol, whatever it may be, the islands
can even move to swipe away the flight. But on the other hand is
another lesson for us. Even if we look in our homes, for example,
the fly if a fly snitches, for example, a grain of sugar, a
couple of grains of sugar, which it often does, by the way, no one
would be able to really recover once it's messages. Why? Because
one of the specific features of a fly is the way that digest food.
They don't digest food in the mouth, they digest, they make it
malleable, they only take something in liquid form. So they
liquefy the fluid, the food, and then the second thing.
And that is why let's call it four. In fact, it's called
sponging. So once it secretes something onto the food, that food
or that sugar becomes liquefied, you can't reverse the process. So
once it takes something from you, you can't even bring it back.
Maybe it refers to that Allah knows best. As for creating the
fly.
Obviously, we can't create a fly. But even the simplest of creature
is uniquely designed by the Creator. The fly is the simplest
of things. And Allah said in the is it, Allah is not shy to use the
simplest of things, even an insect or something less. But even this
fee basic, it has receptors, which is called CheMin sencilla, which
is which are found in the lower legs in the feet, they can taste
food with their feet.
And not only that, due to that I'm just using the feet and I'm not
going to the whole animal by the way, or the whole insect due to
the pads. The pool fully flared pads on its on its foot, it's able
to walk climb almost any surface no matter where it is where this
horizontal vertical, it can even walk upside down.
Not only that, it has compound eyes, which probably has
approximately 4000 eyes or lenses in each eye. And they have a 360
degree view at the same time, at one time.
But you can imagine the brain of a fly. Nonetheless, it can process
we process 60 images per second, that fly can process 250 images
per second. The lowly fly which Allah made with the idols can even
swipe away.
So we see that's why it's so hard to catch a fly before you see they
see you. But nonetheless, it's among the least magnificent of
Allah's creation, and yet fatter BarakAllahu accent we'll call it
key
points for our consideration. One. A fly is only a small base
creature and insect yet, it is put here in this verse In contrast,
defying the non existent powers of the idols that people worship.
Allah didn't do something big. He used a flight
to compare the fly. And the inability of these idols when we
make it the gods can't even compare can compare the flight, no
doesn't even match up to the fly isn't able even to chase a fly
away to neither human nor gods. The people worship the gods that
people worship. None of them can create a fly. But even that
seemingly lowly fly is a unique marvel of creation nonetheless.
It's a unique marvel of creation.
Thirdly, only Allah is the Creator. And this is the bottom
line. Allah is only worthy of being worshipped. That's the
lesson of the parable only Allah is worthy of being worshipped.
Only Allah is a creator. Remember, just like those people who put
together the ready made parts of a car. They are called assemblers of
the car, not inventors of the car. People who assemble ready made
parts are called assemblies of the car, not inventors of the car, so
too, we are manufacturers of many things. We are not the creators of
anything. Only Allah is the Creator Akula Callie Harada was
