Sadullah Khan – Parables and Wisdom from the Quran (Not even a Fly) Night 20

Amen and they serve and they will carry

all the ministry upon your regime Smilla Rahmanir Rahim. rejada

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
