			empowerment, parables and wisdom
from the Noble Quran.
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:27
			One of the best known parables in
the Holy Quran is that of the
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:28
			spider's web.
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:31
			And Allah makes reference to that
in Surah Anca Bucha
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:37
			method or Latina taka Domingo Nila
Alia a commercially Lanka boat, it
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:38
			occurred Vita.
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:47
			The example of those who take Olia
other than Allah is like that of a
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:50
			spider who takes the web as its
home.
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:56
			A contrast is drawn between those
who take Olia other than Allah.
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:02
			And Olia Of course, basically
literally means friend, or ally.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:07
			But also in this context, in a
larger context, it implies
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:12
			caretaker maintainer, protector,
someone that you can rely upon for
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:16
			safety and security, someone that
you can depend upon.
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:20
			Therefore, the concept of tequila.
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:25
			Dependence in Allah is an integral
part of our relationship as people
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:30
			of faith with our Creator. The
word cool, however, does not mean
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			that you just believe and do
nothing. It is also an expression
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:38
			of convictional reliance,
convictional reliance upon the
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:41
			divine, you do what needs to be
done, but your dependence upon
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:45
			Allah, and then you will meet yet
a worker Allah He for whom a
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:49
			husband, Allah is sufficient for
those who genuinely rely upon him.
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:55
			Allah has put us in this world, to
temporary world with a permanent
		
00:01:55 --> 00:02:00
			test, and all of our positive and
negative negative circumstances,
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:05
			whatever the causes may be, all
the circumstances are part of that
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:10
			test. The test is about the
performance. Regardless,
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:15
			regardless of what circumstance we
find ourselves in, positive or
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:21
			negative, whatever circumstances
we encounter, it is how we respond
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:26
			how we use our efforts in
achieving the higher objectives of
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:29
			our existence, whether we're going
through sugar, or periods of sub
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:34
			gratitude, or the green through
patient perseverance. And our
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:38
			success depends on the quality of
the good that we do in this world,
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:44
			despite what we encounter, based
on the wisdom, the propriety and
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:48
			the sincerity that we incorporate
in our thoughts in our words, and
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:49
			now deeds.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:56
			The stoical autoworker Allah Allah
reliance on Allah does not imply
		
00:02:56 --> 00:03:01
			not doing anything, it is neither
stagnation, noise, resignation,
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:06
			rather, it is a motivation to
practical wisdom, practical action
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:10
			with affirmative hope you do what
needs to be done, but with hoping
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:14
			Allah is whatever make it happen,
it happens for the best and you
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:17
			will deal with whatever happens
and whatever happens may be the
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:20
			best for you. It may be part of
the test. And therefore an
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:25
			incident any documented by
material within a prophecy was
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:28
			stolen, entered into a masjid and
someone came in with him. And he
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:30
			came with the camera outside and
he left the camera and the Rasul
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:34
			asked him Did you tie your camel
he said the worker Allah Allah He
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:35
			said know
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:39
			what the worker first tie your
camel, then depend upon Allah you
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:42
			do your but is not just Oh,
someone will take care of it.
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:46
			Allah is not a camel herder. You
do your part. And that is then
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:51
			rely on what comes after that. Now
those who do not engage into a
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:52
			call
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:57
			the dependence or reliance on
Allah, they are the ones who are
		
00:03:57 --> 00:04:01
			referred to in this parable. They
are like those, like the spider
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:03
			taking its web as its home.
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:10
			In analyzing the parable of the
spider, just by way of
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:14
			introduction, a remarkable point
to note, just the wonder of the
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:14
			Quran.
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:18
			There are three suitors in the
Quran that makes reference to
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:20
			insects Surah
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:24
			Surah number ensuites Blanca Bucha
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:26
			and
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:32
			a number, the surah and the
reference in there are two plural
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:37
			because these insects live in
communities. You know, bees are in
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:42
			communities, in groups and sang
communities they are in groups. In
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:45
			fact, ends are the most structured
of all creatures.
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:50
			And Caboose, Allah the first two
in the Surah In the feminine and
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:54
			the singular because the net is
the web is made by the female and
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:58
			maintained by the female so unique
in our Allah uses even the name
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:00
			feminine see
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			Muller and for the other
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:06
			masculine orders a plural. Now let
us reflect on the spider's web
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:11
			with the spider takes as its home.
a spider's web is made from silk
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:16
			as we know. And spiders are in
fact, the only animals that use
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:21
			the practical use a silk original
soak in the daily lives, we may
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:24
			make clothes out of it, and so on
and so forth. But they're the only
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:28
			ones even the slug will produce a
slug. But as far as practically
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:33
			using it, it is the spider. The
soul for the web is produced as
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:37
			liquid. But as it emerges from the
gland of the spider from the
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:41
			splinter net to the spider, it
turns into solid silk fiber, which
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:46
			is 0.004 millimeter thick, less
than a 1,000th of a human,
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			the tensile strength and you need
to understand something to allow
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:53
			me to reference in my Shala no
more than my Kalma listen to what
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:58
			it is, the tensile strength of
each strand of the spider's web is
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:01
			stronger than the same weight of
steel, and it has much greater
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:06
			elasticity. stronger than steel,
weight by weight, on by pound,
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:12
			inch by inch measure by measure
angles greater elasticity. Despite
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:16
			its fragile look, the spider silk
thread that makes the web is
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:21
			extremely resilient. And in fact,
in the full year spider, has the
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:26
			strongest biological substance is
natural fiber emitting from his
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:31
			body, to make your web is the
strongest natural substance known
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:35
			to men natural fiber known to men,
and therefore is referred to as
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:40
			bio steel. mind boggling and
impressive indeed. But now the
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:45
			spider's web. The spider's web
itself symbolizes and is symbolic,
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:49
			of a seemingly safe of a secure
knit.
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:54
			But despite the intricacies of his
design, the magnificence of his
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:58
			functionality, how it operates,
the strength of its of its
		
00:06:58 --> 00:07:03
			strength, the beauty of his
appearance, despite all of it. The
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:09
			spider's web is primarily a trap,
and also a home, but rather
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:16
			unpleasant and lonely on spiders
live alone. Babies just won't
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:20
			fight for existence and often kill
each other to survive. Me who
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:25
			comes to visit may be eaten after
meeting by normally the larger and
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:26
			more powerful female.
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:32
			So it's neither happy home, nor a
safe residence. It is a lonely
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:36
			home for the one who resides a
treacherous venue for those who
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:41
			visit a deadly abode for those who
are trapped. It doesn't provide
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:45
			any shade, neither protection from
gold, nor from heat, or any
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:45
			shelter
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:53
			the spider takes as its home. The
spider's web therefore, is a great
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:57
			sign of Allah's creation. The
structure exemplifies material
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:59
			strength, and exquisite design.
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:05
			It is appealing is beauty, and
deceptively attractive. Its
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:10
			threads are extremely strong and
designed to catch prey. Despite
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:14
			all of it, the verse concludes,
the spider takes the web as its
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:19
			own. We're in Ohanian boo Utila
beta Blanca, Booth, Locarno, Yaga
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:23
			moon, and indeed, among the
weakest of homes is the home of
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:29
			the spider, if only you knew. So
the spider is home. The web is
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:33
			indeed a weak house, literally
floating in the air.
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:39
			That's the mere stroke of our
fingertips can easily destroy this
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:40
			elaborate design.
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:47
			So those who rely on other than
Allah are like the spiders relying
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:47
			on the web.
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:52
			Is it possible also reference to
the World Wide Web today? Allah
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:53
			Allah
		
00:08:55 --> 00:09:00
			points for consideration. One we
often saw be dazzled by the
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:03
			appealing creativity of creation,
Mashallah.
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:09
			We often saw be dazzled by the
appealing creativity of creation,
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:14
			that we seldom recognize the
magnificence of the creator of
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:19
			creation. Point number two. Though
the spider's web is seemingly
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:23
			beautiful, apparently strong, it
is still a trap.
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:28
			Many things in the world be
dazzling, appealing, but still
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:34
			attract things and it always is
the same. So don't be fooled. And
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:39
			number three, we often see so much
evil in good people. We see so
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:44
			much ugliness in beautiful people.
There's so much apparent wrongs in
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:51
			good places, yet so much potential
beauty in ugly places. Therefore,
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:57
			do not be blinded by the apparent
but rather give you attention to
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:59
			the deeper reality of things Akula
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			kolyada was the Flula was salam
