00:01:57 --> 00:02:00

Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.

00:02:02 --> 00:02:05

Historian Professor John William Draper,

00:02:06 --> 00:02:10

in his well known work, a history of the intellectual development of

00:02:10 --> 00:02:14

Europe, observed, and I quote him

00:02:15 --> 00:02:20

for years after the death of Justinian, the Roman emperor, in

00:02:20 --> 00:02:28

569 ad, was born at Mecca in Arabia, that man who of all men

00:02:28 --> 00:02:34

exercise, the greatest influence upon the human race, Muhammad.

00:02:36 --> 00:02:38

We are in the month of rugby world.

00:02:39 --> 00:02:42

And 15 104 years ago this week,

00:02:44 --> 00:02:48

Allah blessed the world with the arrival of the greatest benefactor

00:02:48 --> 00:02:54

to humanity. Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa salam, that

00:02:54 --> 00:02:59

prophet was designated by Allah as the final messenger.

00:03:00 --> 00:03:06

And that creator of whom the Prophet said in the lodge me Bucha

00:03:06 --> 00:03:09

Mal, surely Allah is beautiful, and loves beauty

00:03:12 --> 00:03:17

whatever the definitions of Beauty and the criteria for beauty, all

00:03:17 --> 00:03:23

of these definitions and criteria, stem from certain philosophies,

00:03:23 --> 00:03:29

and principles, philosophies and principles, which shape our

00:03:29 --> 00:03:32

conception, our perception, our understanding, and our

00:03:32 --> 00:03:34

appreciation of beauty.

00:03:36 --> 00:03:40

Some notions of beauty lay emphasis only on the physical or

00:03:40 --> 00:03:45

the outer dimensions, or to appearances, because often,

00:03:45 --> 00:03:50

physical appearances are the lens through which things and events

00:03:50 --> 00:03:55

are observed, and through which they are aesthetically evaluated

00:03:55 --> 00:03:56

and valued.

00:03:57 --> 00:04:02

From such a perspective, physical appearance, the outward, what you

00:04:02 --> 00:04:04

see is all that matters.

00:04:07 --> 00:04:11

Other notions and concepts of beauty encompasses both, not only

00:04:11 --> 00:04:17

what you see, but from where the very be, I mean, it's and what it

00:04:17 --> 00:04:21

reflects, in other words, the inner in the outer aspects. And

00:04:21 --> 00:04:25

according to the Islamic worldview, the reality of creation

00:04:25 --> 00:04:30

is a dual one, physical and spiritual. A in the case of the

00:04:30 --> 00:04:34

human being as well, the inner and the outer, therefore Imam,

00:04:35 --> 00:04:41

Muhammad, Islam. He said, the eye perceives the outer and the

00:04:41 --> 00:04:45

surface of things, but not the inner essence. And

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

philosophers and writers and scholars reiterated what he said

00:04:51 --> 00:04:57

by saying further in what he said, I knew that was a struggle as well

00:04:57 --> 00:05:00

as a phobia to her happy three year in a

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

other words, in other words, it cannot perceive the essence but

00:05:04 --> 00:05:09

the eye, it only perceives the shapes and the forms, but not the

00:05:09 --> 00:05:14

real nature. The outer doesn't reflect always the real nature of

00:05:14 --> 00:05:14

things.

00:05:15 --> 00:05:19

So to balance the significance of the inward in the outward, the

00:05:19 --> 00:05:22

Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam emphasized the harmonious

00:05:22 --> 00:05:27

interplay between the external and the internal between the outer and

00:05:27 --> 00:05:31

the inner in numerous things in his prayers, and in his words,

00:05:31 --> 00:05:35

among them, documented in the Muslim of Imam Muhammad in the

00:05:35 --> 00:05:35

humble

00:05:36 --> 00:05:41

cut after the hammer Accra Sokolova hola hola. Eman Alba,

00:05:41 --> 00:05:45

huzzah. Lima, Melissa Anand saw the car wa Holika, to whom Mr.

00:05:45 --> 00:05:50

Pema successful indeed is a person who is sincere in face the inner

00:05:50 --> 00:05:53

dimension whose heart is pure internally whose spirit is

00:05:53 --> 00:05:57

truthful outwardly and whose character is upright and

00:05:57 --> 00:06:02

interplane interconnectedness and interrelatedness a non separation

00:06:03 --> 00:06:06

and inseparable bottled between the inner and the outer.

00:06:07 --> 00:06:12

And therefore we find in the prey of Sydney Alika Mala which, which

00:06:12 --> 00:06:15

also emphasizes the balance between the inner and the outer,

00:06:15 --> 00:06:19

was the focus of goodness being both in the inner and the outer.

00:06:19 --> 00:06:24

And he said that's why Allah who was silly at the Haven mean Isla

00:06:24 --> 00:06:30

Nia, it was the Pharaoh said, he played Allah make my inner better

00:06:30 --> 00:06:36

than my outer, and make the outer to be good, my inner better than

00:06:36 --> 00:06:39

outer, and make the outer to be good. In other words, if you see

00:06:39 --> 00:06:42

goodness on the outside, the inner in fact is even better.

00:06:43 --> 00:06:47

To have an appreciation of both the inner and the outer dimensions

00:06:47 --> 00:06:50

of ourselves. Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam taught

00:06:50 --> 00:06:55

us a special dua, a special supplication, when we look at our

00:06:55 --> 00:06:58

reflection of ourselves, whether in water or in a mirror that we

00:06:58 --> 00:07:03

read, Allahumma Kumar has sent a copy for us in Philippi. Oh Allah,

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

as you have made my outer good, meet my inner good as well as your

00:07:08 --> 00:07:13

meet my appearance good, make my inner character and quality good

00:07:13 --> 00:07:13

as well.

00:07:14 --> 00:07:19

Certainly, something or someone cannot truly be viewed as really

00:07:19 --> 00:07:25

beautiful. If it is negative, if it's harmful, hurtful, even if you

00:07:25 --> 00:07:29

may embellish that with appearances. They have a rather

00:07:29 --> 00:07:34

harsh saying in Africans, I don't like the saying was an example we

00:07:34 --> 00:07:39

can use. They say out there are several blogging noccalula kudle.

00:07:39 --> 00:07:44

Ultra opera, they mean that even if a monkey with a ring gold ring

00:07:44 --> 00:07:48

or something, it doesn't beautify him. No, I think it's a bit harsh

00:07:48 --> 00:07:51

on the monkey. But besides the point, the issue here is, it

00:07:51 --> 00:07:55

doesn't become embellished. But we are sometimes trapped by that, but

00:07:55 --> 00:07:59

out embellishment without the appreciation or evaluation of the

00:07:59 --> 00:08:04

inner reality. So when it comes to human beings, true beauty is not

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

by outer trimmings and adornments. Rather, it is something inherent

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

in the person himself or herself, out of beauty must emanate from an

00:08:13 --> 00:08:14

inner beauty,

00:08:15 --> 00:08:19

from the inner beauty of the spirit of the heart of the soul,

00:08:19 --> 00:08:23

and then only can it truly be considered beautiful. And

00:08:23 --> 00:08:29

therefore, the poet's is Jamal Ruhija, who will Jamal three will

00:08:29 --> 00:08:34

be his Shama. Orfila Lu wala took me the hustler to June, will feel

00:08:34 --> 00:08:36

a desire they are working

00:08:37 --> 00:08:41

in the beauty, the beauty of the soul. The inner beauty is the real

00:08:41 --> 00:08:45

beauty. Perfumed by its own merits and its associations and

00:08:45 --> 00:08:50

connections. Improving your outward appearance won't enhance

00:08:50 --> 00:08:54

your inner beauty. In the body, there is a negative burden on the

00:08:54 --> 00:08:58

soul. It is negativity inside the beauty becomes affected.

00:08:59 --> 00:09:03

Therefore Allah subhanaw taala even when he evaluates us,

00:09:03 --> 00:09:07

irrespective of how much we believe how much we fast, how much

00:09:07 --> 00:09:11

Quran we read, how much we make, Allah evaluates not only the outer

00:09:11 --> 00:09:16

appearance and out to action, but also inspecting our hearts. He

00:09:16 --> 00:09:20

says your Mulayam fall madly in love and Allah because even Salim

00:09:21 --> 00:09:24

on the day, when all the things that you hanker for in this world

00:09:24 --> 00:09:27

will not benefit you except those who come to Allah with a clean

00:09:27 --> 00:09:32

heart and Hadith document this. Muslim girls who said in Allah La

00:09:32 --> 00:09:34

young gorilla, walla

00:09:35 --> 00:09:36

walla T Yong Gu Illa.

00:09:38 --> 00:09:41

Allah does not judge you by your bodies or your appearances, but

00:09:41 --> 00:09:45

rather he evaluates the sincerity of your hearts and the goodness of

00:09:45 --> 00:09:46

your deeds.

00:09:47 --> 00:09:49

The world seems devoid of beauty.

00:09:50 --> 00:09:54

It appears to be filled with anger, hatred, with wars with

00:09:54 --> 00:09:58

intolerance, with oppression with injustice. We don't see beauty

00:09:58 --> 00:09:58

around this

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

The world needs the guiding light of beauty that may bring race into

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

the darkness,

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

adopters that is so pervasive at the moment, the world seems to

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

have lost its appreciation of goodness and His perspective, what

00:10:14 --> 00:10:18

is beneficial and what is truly beautiful. So if we have lost the

00:10:18 --> 00:10:23

sense of beauty, how could we truly appreciate beauty? You need

00:10:23 --> 00:10:27

to have a connection and appreciation and association with

00:10:27 --> 00:10:31

beauty to recognize it. And as the poet say, Melissa, who believe it

00:10:31 --> 00:10:36

Jamal in law, you're often Konishi and Jamila, that person himself

00:10:36 --> 00:10:39

who is devoid of beauty, how will he appreciate the beauty around

00:10:39 --> 00:10:41

him? And therefore,

00:10:42 --> 00:10:46

another poet says, among the people of the soul, are you a

00:10:46 --> 00:10:51

Sharky woman? Because that one couldn't even tell would you do

00:10:51 --> 00:10:55

Jamila? Oh, complaining What is your sickness? Imbibe beauty in

00:10:55 --> 00:10:59

yourself and he Musa Jaya? He was generous in this position,

00:11:00 --> 00:11:01

beautiful in His manner,

00:11:02 --> 00:11:06

Prophet to all of creation, and intercessor for all of the

00:11:06 --> 00:11:10

nations. There's the word of Sheikh Saudi Shirazi.

00:11:11 --> 00:11:16

And they for us claimants to be failed. We need to imbibe and

00:11:16 --> 00:11:21

reflect the beautiful sunnah tariqa muda elements, the Pima al

00:11:21 --> 00:11:26

Muhammadiyah we must follow the record the way the habits, the

00:11:26 --> 00:11:29

culture, the mentality, the attitude, the values of the

00:11:29 --> 00:11:30

praiseworthy one.

00:11:33 --> 00:11:38

Almost Akima the upright one, the commendable, praiseworthy, upright

00:11:38 --> 00:11:42

way of the Prophet, and this implies moral behavior, exemplary

00:11:42 --> 00:11:49

and empathic conduct compassion, mercy, love, kindness. inclusivity

00:11:51 --> 00:11:54

and he came to us as a Muslim as a teacher, as a Rahmatullah aalameen

00:11:55 --> 00:11:59

as a mercy He came as a hottie as a moral guide, as caught them in

00:11:59 --> 00:12:03

the being the one after, after whom no profits or to come or

00:12:03 --> 00:12:07
