00:00:01 --> 00:00:05
			Alhamdulillah, we praise Him, we seek His help,
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:06
			and we seek His forgiveness.
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:10
			And we seek refuge in Allah from the
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:12
			evils of our souls and from the evils
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:12
			of our deeds.
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:17
			Whomsoever Allah guides, he is the guided one,
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:18
			and whosoever He leads astray, you will not
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:20
			find for him a guiding ally.
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:23
			I bear witness that there is no god
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			but Allah, and that there is no partner
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:26
			for Him.
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:29
			I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:30
			and Messenger.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:35
			O you who believe, fear Allah as He
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:37
			should be feared, and do not die except
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:38
			as Muslims.
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:44
			O you people, fear your Lord who created
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:48
			you from one soul, and created from it
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:51
			its wife, and spread from it many men
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52
			and women.
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:56
			And fear Allah with whom you ask for
		
00:00:56 --> 00:01:00
			mercy, for Allah is watching over you.
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:05
			O you who believe, fear Allah and say
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:08
			a strong word, it will correct your deeds
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			and cover up your sins.
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:14
			And whosoever obeys Allah and His Messenger, he
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:15
			has won a great triumph.
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:21
			As for the servants of Allah, know that
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			the best words are the words of Allah,
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24
			and the best guidance is the guidance of
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:26
			Muhammad ﷺ.
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:30
			And the worst of things are their innovations,
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			and every innovation is a creation, and every
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:36
			creation is misguidance, and every misguidance is in
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:36
			the Fire.
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			I was commissioned to speak about something that
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:43
			I am not qualified for.
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:48
			I was commissioned to speak about the devotion
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:51
			of the Salaf to the Quran.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:58
			And when we say Salaf, we're talking about
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:03
			the generations of Rasulullah ﷺ and the three
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:05
			generations that followed.
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:12
			We're talking about how those people lived the
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:14
			book that we have today.
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:21
			How the Sahaba, the Tabi'in, Tabi'in
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:23
			Tabi'in, how they lived the book of
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:25
			Allah and those who came after them.
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:33
			The book of Allah, that nowadays we use
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:38
			it to decorate our shelves.
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:45
			The ayat of the Quran, sometimes we decorate
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:47
			it, we write it in calligraphy on our
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:48
			walls.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:54
			And sometimes, some of us we read on
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:57
			different occasions, opening of an event.
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:02
			Whether the event is a conference or janazah
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:02
			or wedding.
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:10
			But in only few of us, can relate
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:13
			to the Quran as the Salaf did.
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:19
			So today, I will try my ultimate best
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:23
			to close the gap between the Salaf and
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:24
			us.
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:31
			And perhaps, only perhaps, we can learn the
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:35
			way and we can follow the fursa bi
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:36
			-idnihi subhanahu wa ta'ala.
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:40
			What is the book of Allah, first of
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:41
			all?
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:43
			What is the Quran?
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:47
			Is that what it is?
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:49
			A kitab didn't be recited?
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:54
			One of the people who described the Quran
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:55
			said the following.
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:58
			And I hope you will retain what this
		
00:03:58 --> 00:03:59
			man said.
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:31
			He said, Look!
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:33
			It is the strong rope of Allah.
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:35
			It is the wisdom of Allah.
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:38
			It is the straight path.
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:41
			It is the path that does not allow
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:41
			desires.
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:44
			It is the path that does not allow
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:45
			opinions.
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:47
			It is the path that does not allow
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:48
			tongues.
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:49
			It is the path that does not create
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:51
			a lot of opposition.
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:54
			It is the path that does not destroy
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:55
			its wonders.
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:57
			It is the path that does not satisfy
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:58
			the scholars.
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:58
			Listen!
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			Whoever does it, he is rewarded.
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:05
			Whoever says it, he is truthful.
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:08
			Whoever judges it, he is fair.
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:12
			Whoever invites to it, he is guided to
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:13
			the straight path.
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:19
			Allow me with the limited language that I
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:21
			have to explain the description of the Quran
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:22
			based on this man.
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:28
			He said, the Book of Allah, Kitabullah, in
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:33
			it, he said, فيه نبأ من كان قبلكم
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:37
			It contains the information of the nations before
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:42
			you, those who perished, those who succeeded, and
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:43
			those who made it.
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:48
			It contains the Naba' of Bani Israel.
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:54
			It contains the Naba' of Qawiyyud, Salih, Ad,
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:57
			on the rest of the nations.
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:01
			فيه نبأ من كان قبلكم Why?
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:03
			So we can learn from them.
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:06
			So we can say, this is the path
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:09
			they took, and they've been destroyed, we should
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:10
			not take that path.
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:13
			This is the path that the righteous took,
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:15
			let us take that.
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:19
			نبأ من كان قبلكم And he said, وخبروا
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:23
			ما بعدكم And the Book contains what will
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:24
			come in the future.
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:26
			Things that will come.
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:32
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, according to some
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:35
			of the Mufassireen, gave us the information of
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:38
			the future concerning Palestine and Israel.
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:43
			سبحان الذي أسر بعبده ليلا من المسجد الحرام
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:47
			إلى المسجد الأقصى الذي باركنا حوله لنريه من
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:52
			آياته And then it continues, the Bani Israel
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:56
			will come to times to turn, and Allah
		
00:06:56 --> 00:07:00
			will send the Ibadahna, slaves and servants of
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:04
			Allah, that will show them what the Deen
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:05
			of Allah is all about.
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:10
			The Book talks about, when the Ya'jud
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:13
			and Ma'jud comes, The Quran is talking
		
00:07:13 --> 00:07:18
			about the future, وَنَالْجَسَاسَ الْدَابَةِ وَأَخْرَجْنَا لَوْهُمَ الْدَابَةِ
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:22
			When the Daba comes out, the Buddhist Book
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:26
			will talk about the future, the مُسْتَقْبَد يَوْمَ
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:33
			الْحَشْرِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ إِذَا زُلْزِلَتْ الْوَاقِعَةِ الْقَارِعَةِ إِذَا
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:37
			السَّمَانِ فَطَرَتْ إِذَا السَّمَاوِتْ All of this, this
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:39
			is the book he said, it will come.
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:41
			It tells you about the future.
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:47
			And then he said, وَحُكْمُ مَا بَيْنَكُمْ This
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:51
			book will talk about and rule the relationship
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:52
			amongst you.
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:59
			إِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ إِخْوَةً إِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ Brothers, believers
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:00
			are nothing but brothers.
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:04
			It talks about how we deal together, what
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:07
			deal with one another concerning business and transactions.
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:11
			It talks about how we run our families
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:14
			in case of divorce, in case of inheritance,
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:16
			in case of businesses.
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:19
			It talks about everything that relates to us.
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:23
			And then he said, هُوَ الْفَصْلُ لَيْسَ بِالْحَزْي
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:25
			He said this book is decisive.
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:29
			This book is a decisive thing.
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:30
			It's not a suggestion.
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:35
			When Allah SWT said, وَأَقِيمُوا الصَّلَاةِ وَآتُوا الزَّكَاةِ
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:38
			Establish the prayer and give the charity.
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:39
			It was not a suggestion.
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:41
			It's a decisive matter.
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:43
			You have to do it.
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:46
			You don't say, I feel good today.
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:48
			I am going to get up for fajr.
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:51
			Or I'm feeling lazy and tired and I'm
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:52
			gonna overlook today.
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:54
			Inshallah, when I wake up I will pray.
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:55
			No.
		
00:08:56 --> 00:09:02
			إِنَّ الصَّلَاةَ كَانَتَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ كِتَابًا مَوْقُودًا It's
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:02
			not a suggestion.
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:06
			فَوَالْفَصْرُ لَيْسَ بِالْحَزْنِ He said.
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:12
			Then he said, مَنْ تَرَكَهُ مِنْ جَبَّارٍ قَصَمَهُ
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:15
			اللَّهِ He said, when a Jabbar, when a
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:19
			tyrant ruler, when he abandons the book of
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:21
			Allah, when he puts it on the shelf,
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:23
			when he says, I will follow my own
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:28
			constitution, the British constitution, and he moves away
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:31
			from the book of Allah, Allah will destroy
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:32
			his reign.
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:33
			Said the man.
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:37
			And see what happened in many rulers that
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:39
			we lived through them in our lives.
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:45
			قَالَ وَمَنْ ابْتَقَ الْهُدَى بِغَيْرِهِ أَضَلَّهُ اللَّهُ And
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:49
			anyone who tried to seek guidance, anyone who
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:51
			tried to seek guidance other than the book
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:55
			of Allah, Allah will lead him astray.
		
00:09:56 --> 00:10:02
			عَجَبًا يَا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ عَجَبًا Today we have
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:05
			constitutions of organizations.
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:07
			We have bylaws.
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:11
			We have way of life that we borrow
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:14
			from the west and from the east when
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:16
			the book of Allah is right in front
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:17
			of us.
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:21
			So the man is saying, the day that
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:25
			you find or you look for guidance through
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:27
			any other means, other than the way of
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:30
			Allah, Allah will lead you astray.
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:31
			Will let you go.
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:36
			And then he said, and I want you
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:37
			to understand.
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:43
			يَقُولُ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ حَبْلُ اللَّهِ الْمَتِينِ It's the
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:43
			robe of Allah.
		
00:10:44 --> 00:10:48
			وَاعْتَصِمُوا بِحَبْلِ اللَّهِ يَمِيعًا وَلَا تَفَرَّقُوا He said,
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:51
			hold on to the robe of Allah and
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:54
			do not deviate from, do not be a
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:56
			different, do not be a sect, do not
		
00:10:56 --> 00:10:58
			say, I'm this and I'm that.
		
00:10:59 --> 00:10:59
			No.
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:03
			All of us, وَنَعْتَصِمُوا بِحَبْلِ اللَّهِ يَمِيعًا وَلَا
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:12
			تَفَرَّقُوا حبل الله المتين وذكر الحكيم وصراط المستقيم
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:14
			It's the rope of Allah.
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:17
			And then he said, remember that it's a
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:20
			reminder that is full of wisdom and hikmah.
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:22
			And it is indeed the straight path of
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:22
			Allah.
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:27
			قَالَهُ وَهُوَ الَّذِي لَا تَزِيقُ بِهِ الْأَهْوَى He
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:31
			said, this book, desires and wishes of the
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:35
			people will never affect and influence it.
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:41
			And he continues saying, لَا تَنْقَضِي عَجَائِبًا He
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:43
			said, the hikmah, the wisdom of this book
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:45
			will never end.
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:47
			Never end.
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:51
			لَا يُشْبِعُ مِنْهُ الْعُلَمَى He said, scholars can
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:53
			never have enough of the Quran.
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:56
			If you're a true scholar, if you're a
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:58
			mu'min, and you understand the meaning of the
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:02
			Quran, you will never have enough of it.
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:09
			لَا يُشْبِعُ مِنْهُ الْعُلَمَى لَا يُشْبِعُ It's gems
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:13
			and wisdom and hikmah can never be enough.
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:18
			قَالَ وَلَا يَخْلُقُ بِعَن كَثْرَةِ الرَّتِّ He said,
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:22
			no matter how many times you read, how
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:24
			many times you repeat the same ayah, you
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:26
			will never get old.
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:29
			Today, I don't know, maybe I miss, we
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:32
			have a qari who came, but that qari,
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:35
			that reciter, he recited the same perhaps surah
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:37
			that he knew.
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:39
			But every time the surah is recited, it
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:41
			sounds sweet and different.
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:44
			Look at surah al-Fatiha.
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:47
			How many times do we recite in a
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:47
			day?
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:49
			Minimum 17 times.
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:53
			All of us, perhaps we don't even remember
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:55
			when we memorized surah al-Fatiha.
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:59
			But if Shaykh Shurayn recites, it has a
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:00
			sweetness.
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:03
			It has that ring that is so sweet.
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:06
			But the same Fatiha, if Shaykh Abdul Basit
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:09
			recites, it has a different sweetness.
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:12
			But the same Fatiha, if the imam of
		
00:13:12 --> 00:13:15
			your masjid recites, it has a different flavor.
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:19
			That's why he said, لا يخلق عن كثرة
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:23
			الرد No matter how many times, no matter
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:26
			how many times you repeat, it will never
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:27
			get old.
		
00:13:28 --> 00:13:30
			And he said, no matter how many times,
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:32
			you will always find something.
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:34
			I remember once, subhanallah.
		
00:13:36 --> 00:13:39
			I remember, you know, surah al-Alaq.
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:40
			I don't remember when I memorized.
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:43
			I don't remember when I memorized.
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:47
			And I read this ayah, but a little
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:49
			man, little boy or little young man reminded
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:50
			me once of ayah.
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:52
			And I said, I have never looked at
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:53
			it this way before.
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:57
			What happened was, we had a brother in
		
00:13:57 --> 00:13:58
			the masjid.
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:02
			And this brother, mashallah, he comes to the
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:03
			masjid.
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:04
			The masjid needs help.
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:05
			The community needs help.
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:07
			Mashallah, he helps.
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:08
			He comes out.
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:12
			You know, we thought he's a miskeen, he's
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:12
			a nice guy.
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:14
			And he was, inshallah, yes.
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:20
			And then what happened, subhanallah, Allah gave him
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:22
			a little window from this dunya.
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:26
			The man that he used to collect sadaqat
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:26
			for others.
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:29
			He used to go to fulan and fulan
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:30
			and give.
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:32
			And he would say, give to your brother.
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:33
			Give to the masjid.
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:34
			Give to Palestine.
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:35
			Give to Afghanistan.
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:36
			Give to Somalia.
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:36
			Give to...
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:39
			And this brother, mashallah, was active.
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:42
			But all of a sudden, dunya, in fatahat
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:43
			alayhi min baabin sagheer.
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:46
			You know, a small window of dunya opened
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:47
			itself to him.
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:54
			And then he became a little bit wealthy.
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:57
			And then we went to him.
		
00:14:58 --> 00:14:59
			And the brother changed.
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:00
			Completely changed.
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:03
			Completely changed.
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:05
			You know, I'm just giving you an example
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:06
			how the Quran comes back to you and
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:07
			revive.
		
00:15:07 --> 00:15:10
			And every time he says, subhanallah, he never
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:11
			looked at it this way.
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:16
			So we said to him, our brothers so
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:17
			and so need help.
		
00:15:18 --> 00:15:20
			And we need you to help them.
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:22
			You are one of us.
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:25
			And then he looked at left and right
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:26
			and said, akhi, look.
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:29
			Look how hard I worked.
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:32
			And all of a sudden, you want some
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:34
			of the money that I worked hard for
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:34
			it?
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:38
			He forgot that this is from Allah.
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:42
			And then we walked away with sadness and
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:42
			grief.
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:44
			And we walked away from the brother.
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:47
			And all of a sudden, in the midst
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:51
			of a dead silence, the young man said,
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:57
			inna al-insana la yadgha, arraahu astaghna.
		
00:15:57 --> 00:16:02
			That ayah, when he recited, it came to
		
00:16:02 --> 00:16:04
			me, it hit me like I've never read
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:05
			it before.
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:10
			And the translation of the ayah said, inna
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:11
			al-insana la yadgha.
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:15
			Insan, son of Adam, when he gets something,
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:16
			he becomes arrogant.
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:20
			Arraahu astaghna, when he assumes and thinks that
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:23
			he is sufficient, he is self-sufficient.
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:28
			And I said, subhanallah, this Quran, no matter
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:32
			how many times you repeat the same ayah,
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:35
			if you just reflect and you put it,
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:38
			apply it on your daily life, you will
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:41
			see this book, it's not a dead book,
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:43
			but it's a living kitab.
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:45
			It's a living kitab.
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:51
			Yaqul, and the man continues saying, man qala
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:52
			bihi sadaq.
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:57
			And before that, I'm sorry, he said, la
		
00:16:57 --> 00:16:59
			talthabisu bihi al-adsun.
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:04
			He said tongues, the language, they do not
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:07
			get confused when they're reciting the Quran.
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:13
			Brothers from Indonesia, brothers from Malaysia, brothers from
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:16
			China, brothers from Nigeria, brothers from Somalia, brothers
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:20
			from Saudi, brothers from Russia, everyone when they
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:22
			recite the Quran, the Quran is the same.
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:25
			Subhanallah.
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:29
			When they recite it correctly, it will never
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:30
			change.
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:32
			La talthabisu bihi al-adsun.
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:38
			And then he said, man qala bihi sadaq.
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:40
			Who quotes it, spoke the truth.
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:43
			wa man hakam bihi adal.
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:46
			And whoever rules by it, will become just.
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:48
			wa man amila bihi ujur.
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:51
			And whoever practices it, he will be rewarded.
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:54
			wa man da'a ilayhi hudiyah ila sirat
		
00:17:54 --> 00:17:54
			al-mustaqeem.
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:57
			And if you guide people, if you lead
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:59
			people, or if you call people to the
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:01
			Quran, you will be guided to the right
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:01
			path.
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:05
			This is the book that I will try
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:08
			bi-idhnillah to bring it to you in
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:09
			the simplest way.
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:13
			So let us talk about how the salaf
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:15
			rahimahumullah radiyallahu anhum.
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:18
			How did they live this Quran?
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:22
			See, ya Ibadallah, Quran is not for us
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:27
			to recite, and to read, and to see
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:27
			the huroof.
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:32
			Quran, it is for us to reflect and
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:34
			to ponder on it.
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:39
			Yaqulullah subhanahu wa ta'ala kitabun anzalnahu ilayka
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:45
			mubarak liyadabbaru ayat wa liyadhakara ulul alba.
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:48
			He said this book, kitab is mubarak, is
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:49
			blessed.
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:53
			And the purpose of the revelation is for
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:56
			the people to ponder, to reflect.
		
00:18:57 --> 00:19:01
			You don't just read, and sadly, we just
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:04
			read nowadays the book of Allah, we read
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:05
			like we read newspapers.
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:08
			We read the book of Allah like we're
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:09
			reading novels.
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:12
			We read the book of Allah like we're
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:13
			just reading a text message.
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:17
			But Allah is saying in the Quran, kitabun
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:20
			anzalnahu, a book that we reveal to you,
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:23
			oh Muhammad salallahu alayhi wasalam, which is blessed
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:26
			and mubarak, and the purpose of the revelation,
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:29
			liyadabbaru, so the people who are listening to
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:31
			it can reflect on the ayat.
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:39
			When you read, alhamdulillahi rabbil alameen, what do
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:41
			you think, what comes to your mind?
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:45
			See most of us, allahu akbar, we read
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:47
			du'a al istiftah, we say alhamdulillahi rabbil
		
00:19:47 --> 00:19:49
			alameen, we finish.
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:55
			We never tasted the meaning of the ayat.
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:58
			When we say alhamdulillah, what does it mean?
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:03
			Alhamdulillah, the easiest thing that we can remember
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:05
			is alhamdulillah that I can see myself on
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:06
			my feet.
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:11
			Alhamdulillah, that I can be grateful to my
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:11
			Lord.
		
00:20:12 --> 00:20:16
			Alhamdulillah, that I don't worship an idol, or
		
00:20:16 --> 00:20:18
			I don't worship an animal, or I don't
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:20
			worship an angel, I worship my Lord.
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:24
			Alhamdulillah, who picked me from all kinds of
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:26
			creation and made me a mu'min.
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:29
			Alhamdulillah, who gave me the ability to stand
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:31
			in front of Him in a salah.
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:33
			But we don't reflect on that.
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:36
			We just read.
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:37
			We cruise.
		
00:20:38 --> 00:20:40
			You know, even salah became mechanical.
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:42
			It became automatic.
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:45
			You know, you don't know what the imam
		
00:20:45 --> 00:20:45
			recited.
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:48
			You don't know what rakah you were in.
		
00:20:48 --> 00:20:49
			We just move on.
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:52
			But the purpose of the recitation, the purpose
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:54
			that the imam has to recite the Quran
		
00:20:54 --> 00:20:59
			out loud during the salah, liyadabbaru ayat.
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:01
			So we can reflect the ayat of the
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:01
			Quran.
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:08
			But only Ibadur Rahman will do this.
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:12
			When Allah SWT was talking about the disbelievers
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:14
			whose hearts are sealed.
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:22
			He said in the Quran, He said, When
		
00:21:22 --> 00:21:25
			Allah was talking about the mushrikeen of Ahlul
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:27
			Makkah, when He was talking about these people
		
00:21:27 --> 00:21:32
			who understood Arabic, Allah asked the rhetorical question
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:37
			and He said, Don't they reflect on the
		
00:21:37 --> 00:21:38
			Quran?
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:40
			Don't they ponder on the Quran?
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:42
			Don't they try to understand?
		
00:21:42 --> 00:21:44
			Or there are locks on their hearts?
		
00:21:45 --> 00:21:47
			Are their hearts sealed?
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:51
			No.
		
00:21:52 --> 00:22:02
			A mu'min will reflect, but the one
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:05
			who is a kafir or a munafiq, they
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:06
			read and they move on.
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:17
			This Quran was for us to be governed
		
00:22:17 --> 00:22:22
			by, to live by, to make sure every
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:25
			step that we say is based on the
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:29
			Kitab Allahi and the statement of Rasulullah Sallallahu
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:30
			alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:35
			Not only that we emotionally attach, but we
		
00:22:35 --> 00:22:37
			live the Quran.
		
00:22:37 --> 00:22:40
			That's why when Aisha was asked, tell us
		
00:22:40 --> 00:22:43
			about the khuluq of the Prophet Sallallahu alayhi
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:43
			wa sallam.
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:44
			What did she said?
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:51
			She said his khuluq was the Quran Sallallahu
		
00:22:51 --> 00:22:52
			alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:22:53 --> 00:22:55
			And the best of the Salaf and the
		
00:22:55 --> 00:22:58
			Imam of the Salaf and the head of
		
00:22:58 --> 00:23:01
			the Salaf that we should take him as
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:04
			a role model is Rasulullah Sallallahu alayhi wa
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:04
			sallam.
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:07
			And before we mention anyone else, let us
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:09
			go over with the messenger of Allah.
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:12
			How he used to live and how he
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:12
			used to reflect.
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:19
			In Sahih al-Bukhari, Abdullah ibn Abbas, Abdullah
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:19
			ibn Mas'ud.
		
00:23:21 --> 00:23:23
			And Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, my dear brothers
		
00:23:23 --> 00:23:26
			and sisters, if you don't know, he was
		
00:23:26 --> 00:23:29
			known as the Turjuman al-Quran.
		
00:23:30 --> 00:23:33
			Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, he used to brag,
		
00:23:33 --> 00:23:35
			you know, and he had every right to
		
00:23:35 --> 00:23:36
			be proud of.
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:39
			He used to say, لَقَدْ حَفِتْتُمْ مِنْ فَمِّرْ
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:42
			رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمُ He said,
		
00:23:42 --> 00:23:46
			I memorized from the lips of Rasulullah Sallallahu
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:49
			alayhi wa sallam 70 surah.
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:53
			The Quran is 114 surah.
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:59
			Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, 70 surah.
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:02
			He heard the messenger of Allah reciting them
		
00:24:02 --> 00:24:05
			and he memorized from them.
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:09
			And Rasulullah Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he used
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:11
			to encourage this young man, he used to
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:14
			say to the sahaba, you gotta read the
		
00:24:14 --> 00:24:15
			Quran like this young man.
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:20
			Once, Rasulullah Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, I'm just
		
00:24:20 --> 00:24:23
			going to support how Abdullah was respected in
		
00:24:23 --> 00:24:24
			the sight of Rasulullah.
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:28
			Once Rasulullah Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and Abu
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:32
			Bakr and Umar, well hadith is sahih, they
		
00:24:32 --> 00:24:33
			were coming back.
		
00:24:34 --> 00:24:38
			They were coming back after Salatul Isha.
		
00:24:38 --> 00:24:41
			And then they passed by the masjid of
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:43
			Rasulullah Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:48
			And then a beautiful sound voice was coming
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:49
			from the masjid.
		
00:24:50 --> 00:24:52
			And they were passing by the windows of
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:55
			the masjid, and the messenger of Allah, he
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:58
			stopped and he looked inside of the masjid
		
00:24:58 --> 00:25:02
			and he saw this young skinny man, Abdullah
		
00:25:02 --> 00:25:04
			ibn Mas'ud, reciting the Quran.
		
00:25:05 --> 00:25:07
			And he listened to him and Abu Bakr
		
00:25:07 --> 00:25:08
			and Umar on his sides.
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:12
			And when Abdullah ibn Umar, he was keep
		
00:25:12 --> 00:25:14
			reciting, keep reciting, keep reciting.
		
00:25:15 --> 00:25:17
			And Rasulullah is saying, ask and you will
		
00:25:17 --> 00:25:17
			be given.
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:19
			Ask and you will be given.
		
00:25:20 --> 00:25:23
			And when he finished, Abdullah ibn Mas'ud,
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:26
			his recitation, the messenger of Allah turned to
		
00:25:26 --> 00:25:28
			the sahaba, to two sahabi, Abu Bakr and
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:29
			Umar.
		
00:25:29 --> 00:25:32
			فَقَالَ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَقْرَىٰ الْقُرْآنَ قَطًّا طَرِيًّا
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:35
			كَمَا أُنْزِلْ فَلْيَقْرَىٰ قِرَاءَتِهِ هَذَا He said, if
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:37
			you ever want to recite the Quran as
		
00:25:37 --> 00:25:41
			fresh, as crisp as it was revealed, recite
		
00:25:41 --> 00:25:42
			like this young man.
		
00:25:42 --> 00:25:44
			صلى رضي الله عنه.
		
00:25:45 --> 00:25:48
			So, Rasulullah, he calls this young man.
		
00:25:50 --> 00:25:54
			And he says to him, يا ابن مسعود,
		
00:25:56 --> 00:25:57
			اقرأ علي القرآن.
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:00
			اقرأ عليك وعليك انزل.
		
00:26:00 --> 00:26:04
			Now, this is Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم.
		
00:26:04 --> 00:26:07
			Can you imagine how lucky, how lucky Abdullah
		
00:26:07 --> 00:26:09
			ibn Mas'ud was just to sit in
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:10
			front of Rasulullah.
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:15
			And Rasulullah, to ask him, ask him, he
		
00:26:15 --> 00:26:18
			says, يا عبد الله, read the Quran to
		
00:26:18 --> 00:26:18
			me.
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:24
			Abdullah says, اقرأ عليك وعليك انزل.
		
00:26:25 --> 00:26:25
			سبحان الله.
		
00:26:25 --> 00:26:28
			He said, ya Rasulullah, you want me to
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:32
			recite the Quran on you, to you, and
		
00:26:32 --> 00:26:33
			it was revealed to you.
		
00:26:35 --> 00:26:37
			قال أحب ونسمعه من غيري.
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:40
			I would, I like to hear it from
		
00:26:40 --> 00:26:40
			someone else.
		
00:26:42 --> 00:26:44
			I like to hear it from someone else.
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:47
			And then he said, Abdullah ibn Mas'ud,
		
00:26:47 --> 00:26:50
			he said, I recited the beginning, I recited
		
00:26:50 --> 00:26:52
			from Surah An-Nisa.
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:56
			And I continue reciting, and I continue reciting,
		
00:26:57 --> 00:27:00
			and Rasulullah is reflecting on every ayah until
		
00:27:00 --> 00:27:05
			I reach, فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئِنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:09
			بِشَهِيدٍ O Muhammad, how your situation would be
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:11
			when on the day of Yawm al-Qiyamah,
		
00:27:11 --> 00:27:14
			when we bring from every community, from every
		
00:27:14 --> 00:27:16
			nation, a witness against them.
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:20
			How would it be, O Muhammad, on the
		
00:27:20 --> 00:27:24
			day of Qiyamah, when we bring a witness
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:30
			against every Ummah, وَجِئْنَا بِكَ شَهِيدٌ عَلَى هَٰٓ
		
00:27:30 --> 00:27:34
			أُولَٰئِ شَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَى هَٰٓ أُولَٰئِ شَهِيدٍ
		
00:27:35 --> 00:27:39
			What would you do, O Muhammad, when we
		
00:27:39 --> 00:27:40
			bring you on the day of Yawm al
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:45
			-Qiyamah to witness against your own Ummah, to
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:48
			witness against your Ummah who left the Quran,
		
00:27:48 --> 00:27:52
			who left the practice of the Deen?
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:55
			How your situation would be, O Muhammad?
		
00:27:55 --> 00:27:56
			Allah said that in the Quran.
		
00:27:58 --> 00:28:03
			فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ سَدْ تِمِي
		
00:28:03 --> 00:28:05
			حَسْبُكُ Stop, stop.
		
00:28:06 --> 00:28:07
			He couldn't handle it.
		
00:28:08 --> 00:28:11
			Rasulullah to be brought witness, to witness against
		
00:28:11 --> 00:28:14
			me and you, the people that he loved
		
00:28:14 --> 00:28:15
			them so much.
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:19
			A Rasulullah cannot testify false testimony.
		
00:28:20 --> 00:28:21
			No, he has to say the truth.
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:26
			Abdullah, he said, I stopped.
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:30
			And then I looked at him, Sallallahu alayhi
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:35
			wa sallam, فَإِذَا عَيْنَاهُ تَدْرِفَانَ And I realized
		
00:28:35 --> 00:28:39
			tears were coming from his eyes, Sallallahu alayhi
		
00:28:39 --> 00:28:39
			wa sallam.
		
00:28:40 --> 00:28:40
			Why?
		
00:28:40 --> 00:28:44
			Because he knew he had to speak the
		
00:28:44 --> 00:28:44
			truth.
		
00:28:46 --> 00:28:49
			Because it was him who told us, on
		
00:28:49 --> 00:28:51
			the day of Yawm al-Qiyamah, some of
		
00:28:51 --> 00:28:52
			his Ummah would come.
		
00:28:53 --> 00:28:55
			And when they come, they want a drink
		
00:28:55 --> 00:28:56
			from the house.
		
00:28:57 --> 00:28:58
			And they will be turned away.
		
00:28:59 --> 00:29:02
			And he would say to the Malaikah, They
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:03
			are from my Ummah, leave them.
		
00:29:04 --> 00:29:07
			And it would be said to him, إِنَّكَ
		
00:29:07 --> 00:29:10
			لَا تَدْرِ مَا أَحْدَثُوا بَعْدَكَ You don't know
		
00:29:10 --> 00:29:12
			what they've done, ya Muhammad, after you left.
		
00:29:13 --> 00:29:15
			You don't know what they've done.
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:18
			Don't be surprised.
		
00:29:20 --> 00:29:22
			You don't know what they've done, if it's
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:23
			been said to Rasulullah.
		
00:29:23 --> 00:29:25
			You don't know what the Muslims did to
		
00:29:25 --> 00:29:27
			our brothers in Palestine.
		
00:29:28 --> 00:29:30
			You don't know what they did to the
		
00:29:30 --> 00:29:32
			book that you left them.
		
00:29:33 --> 00:29:35
			And then he said, I will say to
		
00:29:35 --> 00:29:41
			them, سُحْقًا سُحْقًا سُحْقًا سُحْقًا Woe to them,
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:42
			let them go.
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:44
			Ibadallah.
		
00:29:47 --> 00:29:49
			My time is limited as was shown.
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:53
			But another hadith.
		
00:29:54 --> 00:29:57
			The messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم
		
00:29:58 --> 00:30:01
			عبدالله بن عمر بن عاص He said, one
		
00:30:01 --> 00:30:06
			day Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم He came
		
00:30:07 --> 00:30:10
			and he sat down with us, his students
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:17
			and he recited رَبِّ إِنَّهُنَّ أَضْلِلْنَا كَثِيرًا مِّنَ
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:23
			النَّاسِ فَمَنْ تَبِعَنِي فَإِنَّهُ مِنِّي Ibrahim صلى الله
		
00:30:23 --> 00:30:27
			عليه وسلم saying to Allah, رَبِّ They misled
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:28
			a lot of people.
		
00:30:29 --> 00:30:31
			They misled them.
		
00:30:32 --> 00:30:36
			And then he said, فَمَنْ تَبِعَنِي O Allah
		
00:30:36 --> 00:30:38
			Ibrahim is saying, O Allah, whoever follows me,
		
00:30:38 --> 00:30:39
			he is of me.
		
00:30:41 --> 00:30:43
			Rasulullah recited that to the Sahaba.
		
00:30:44 --> 00:30:47
			And then he moved to Surah Al-Ma
		
00:30:47 --> 00:30:51
			'idah and he recited the statement of Isa
		
00:30:51 --> 00:30:56
			عليه السلام إِن تُعَذِّبْهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ عِبَادُكُ وَإِن تَغْفِرْ
		
00:30:56 --> 00:31:01
			لَهُمْ فَإِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ فَإِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْعَزِيزُ
		
00:31:01 --> 00:31:03
			الْحَكِيمُ He said, O Allah, Isa said, when
		
00:31:03 --> 00:31:05
			Isa was saying, O Isa, أَنتَ قُلْتَ لِلنَّاسَ
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:07
			تَخِذُونُ وَأُمِّيَا إِلَهَيْنَ You're the one who said
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:09
			to the people, worship me and my mother
		
00:31:09 --> 00:31:10
			and take them as God.
		
00:31:10 --> 00:31:12
			And then Isa said, No, I never said
		
00:31:12 --> 00:31:13
			this.
		
00:31:14 --> 00:31:16
			But Allah Isa said at the end, إِن
		
00:31:16 --> 00:31:18
			تُعَذِّبُهُمْ إِن تُعَذِّبُهُمْ If you punish them, they're
		
00:31:18 --> 00:31:19
			your servant.
		
00:31:20 --> 00:31:23
			But if you forgive them, if you forgive
		
00:31:23 --> 00:31:27
			them, you are indeed Al-Aziz, Al-Hakim.
		
00:31:28 --> 00:31:31
			When the Messenger of Allah recited to that
		
00:31:31 --> 00:31:35
			point, he weeped and he cried and he
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:37
			raised his hand and he said, O Allah,
		
00:31:38 --> 00:31:43
			أُمَّتِي أُمَّتِي أُمَّتِي When Muhammad صلى الله عليه
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:47
			وسلم realized the dua of Ibrahim and the
		
00:31:47 --> 00:31:50
			dua of Isa, he said, O Allah, my
		
00:31:50 --> 00:31:52
			Ummah, my Ummah, my Ummah.
		
00:31:53 --> 00:31:58
			And Allah sent Jibreel in that instance.
		
00:31:58 --> 00:32:03
			And he said, O Jibreel, اِذْهَبْ إِلَى مُحَمَّدٍ
		
00:32:03 --> 00:32:06
			And Allah knows everything.
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:12
			وَاسْأَلْهُ And ask him, مَا يُبْكِيكُ Why are
		
00:32:12 --> 00:32:13
			you crying, O Muhammad?
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:17
			And Jibreel came down and asked Muhammad صلى
		
00:32:17 --> 00:32:22
			الله عليه وسلم And he said, أُمَّتِي أَمَّتِي
		
00:32:22 --> 00:32:24
			أُمَّتِي My Ummah, my Ummah.
		
00:32:25 --> 00:32:28
			And then Jibreel went to Allah and he
		
00:32:28 --> 00:32:30
			said, O Allah, Allah knows the situation.
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:33
			Muhammad is crying for the sake of his
		
00:32:33 --> 00:32:33
			Ummah.
		
00:32:33 --> 00:32:36
			Allah says to Muhammad, to Jibreel صلى الله
		
00:32:36 --> 00:32:39
			عليه وسلم, go down to Muhammad and tell
		
00:32:39 --> 00:32:44
			him, O Muhammad إِنَّا سَنُرْضِيكَ فِي أُمَّتِكَ وَلَا
		
00:32:44 --> 00:32:47
			نَسْوَى We will satisfy you in your Ummah
		
00:32:47 --> 00:32:49
			and we will not disgrace you, O Muhammad
		
00:32:49 --> 00:32:52
			صلى الله عليه وسلم Look at Rasulullah, how
		
00:32:52 --> 00:32:54
			much love he had for us.
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:58
			Look how much he was weeping and crying
		
00:32:58 --> 00:33:04
			for us, O Ibadallah Ibadallah This is only
		
00:33:04 --> 00:33:07
			a glimpse for how Rasulullah صلى الله عليه
		
00:33:07 --> 00:33:11
			وسلم lived with the Quran But let us
		
00:33:11 --> 00:33:13
			see how the Sahaba lived with the Quran
		
00:33:14 --> 00:33:18
			There was a Sahabi رضي الله عنه This
		
00:33:18 --> 00:33:22
			Sahabi was a man who always used to
		
00:33:22 --> 00:33:25
			stand next to Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم
		
00:33:26 --> 00:33:30
			And this Sahabi the messenger of Allah, he
		
00:33:30 --> 00:33:33
			had two people on his side all the
		
00:33:33 --> 00:33:35
			time, not Abu Bakr and Umar, no Every
		
00:33:35 --> 00:33:39
			time a delegation comes the delegation would have
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:44
			two men a poet and a speaker and
		
00:33:44 --> 00:33:47
			a speaker and a speaker, the speaker would
		
00:33:47 --> 00:33:51
			speak and that speaker would praise his tribe
		
00:33:51 --> 00:33:55
			and would show their legacy and how they
		
00:33:55 --> 00:33:58
			were warriors and they fought and they defeated
		
00:33:58 --> 00:34:02
			and so on And the poet would praise
		
00:34:02 --> 00:34:06
			his people So when the when the poet
		
00:34:06 --> 00:34:09
			finished, Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم would say
		
00:34:09 --> 00:34:13
			to Hassan bin Thabit, respond to him, and
		
00:34:13 --> 00:34:16
			Hassan would destroy that poet because Hassan was
		
00:34:16 --> 00:34:21
			a poet And when the speaker speaks Rasulullah
		
00:34:21 --> 00:34:24
			would point to this man, Thabit bin Qais
		
00:34:25 --> 00:34:28
			Thabit bin Qais and he would say, respond
		
00:34:28 --> 00:34:30
			to the speaker, and he would destroy him
		
00:34:30 --> 00:34:34
			in his speech Thabit bin Qais, he was
		
00:34:34 --> 00:34:37
			short, and he had a very deep voice
		
00:34:37 --> 00:34:41
			at the same time And one day while
		
00:34:41 --> 00:34:43
			he was sitting with the messenger of Allah
		
00:34:43 --> 00:34:48
			صلى الله عليه وسلم Allah revealed Ayat from
		
00:34:48 --> 00:34:51
			Surah Al-Hujurat When Allah said يَا أَيُّهَا
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:55
			الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَرْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ فَوْقَ صَوْتِ النَّبِيِّ
		
00:34:55 --> 00:34:59
			وَلَا تَجْهَرُوا لَهُ بِالْقَوْلِ كَجَهْرِ بَعْضِكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ أَن
		
00:34:59 --> 00:35:03
			تَحْضَضَ أَعْمَالُكُمْ وَأَنْتُمْ لَا تَشْعُرُونَ O who you
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:05
			believe, never raise your voice over the voice
		
00:35:05 --> 00:35:08
			of Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم and don't
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:11
			be jahool don't be loud in his presence
		
00:35:11 --> 00:35:15
			as you are loud to one another when
		
00:35:15 --> 00:35:21
			the Ayah otherwise Allah says أَن تَحْضَضَ أَعْمَالُكُمْ
		
00:35:21 --> 00:35:25
			your action, your ibadah will go vain, will
		
00:35:25 --> 00:35:28
			be wasted if you raise your voice over
		
00:35:28 --> 00:35:33
			the voice of Rasulullah your a'mal will be
		
00:35:33 --> 00:35:38
			gone will be eliminated so he got up
		
00:35:39 --> 00:35:43
			and he left the scene first day comes
		
00:35:43 --> 00:35:47
			Rasulullah never noticed anything but Thabit bin Qais
		
00:35:47 --> 00:35:51
			is not there the second day he comes
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:55
			Thabit bin Qais is not there the third
		
00:35:55 --> 00:35:58
			day he comes and he said باري ثابت
		
00:35:58 --> 00:36:00
			لا أرى where is Thabit, how come I
		
00:36:00 --> 00:36:04
			don't see him As Sahabi said let me
		
00:36:04 --> 00:36:07
			check on him Ya Rasulullah he went to
		
00:36:07 --> 00:36:10
			Thabit bin Qais sitting in his house, in
		
00:36:10 --> 00:36:16
			his room weeping he turned pale he turned
		
00:36:16 --> 00:36:19
			his eyes red from tears coming from them
		
00:36:20 --> 00:36:23
			and the man said Rasulullah missed you what
		
00:36:23 --> 00:36:26
			happened to you قال إليك and he said
		
00:36:26 --> 00:36:30
			leave me alone فقد حبط عملي my a'mal
		
00:36:30 --> 00:36:33
			are wasted I am from the people of
		
00:36:33 --> 00:36:37
			Jahannam he said how he said إني رجل
		
00:36:37 --> 00:36:39
			جهوري he said I am a man with
		
00:36:39 --> 00:36:42
			a loud and strong voice and I always
		
00:36:42 --> 00:36:45
			speak over Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم and
		
00:36:45 --> 00:36:49
			this ayah said أن تحبط أعمالكم your a'mal
		
00:36:49 --> 00:36:54
			will be wasted, my a'mal is done and
		
00:36:54 --> 00:36:57
			I am from the people of Jahannam so
		
00:36:57 --> 00:37:01
			he went the man went back leaving Thabit
		
00:37:01 --> 00:37:04
			bin Qais went to Rasulullah صلى الله عليه
		
00:37:04 --> 00:37:07
			وسلم and he said this is the condition
		
00:37:07 --> 00:37:09
			of Thabit Ya Rasulullah he said go back
		
00:37:09 --> 00:37:14
			to him and tell him tell him you
		
00:37:14 --> 00:37:17
			are not one of those people rather you
		
00:37:17 --> 00:37:21
			are from the people of Jahannam you are
		
00:37:21 --> 00:37:26
			from the people of Jahannam I have a
		
00:37:26 --> 00:37:29
			lot to say concerning this but my time
		
00:37:29 --> 00:37:33
			was up may Allah SWT reward you but
		
00:37:33 --> 00:37:36
			in conclusion Ya Ibadallah I don't want you
		
00:37:36 --> 00:37:38
			and I to take the book of Allah
		
00:37:38 --> 00:37:42
			something that is for Barakah only something that
		
00:37:42 --> 00:37:46
			we recite on occasion, something that we beautify
		
00:37:46 --> 00:37:50
			on our walls and shelves but let it
		
00:37:50 --> 00:37:53
			be part of our life, it is the
		
00:37:53 --> 00:37:55
			manual of your life, you buy a phone
		
00:37:55 --> 00:37:57
			it comes with the manual, you buy a
		
00:37:57 --> 00:38:00
			TV it comes with the manual your manual
		
00:38:00 --> 00:38:03
			is the book of Allah Subhanahu wa ta
		
00:38:03 --> 00:38:08
			'ala so reflect and learn and apply sadly
		
00:38:08 --> 00:38:12
			Ibadallah a lot of us do not understand
		
00:38:12 --> 00:38:15
			the book of Allah yet we speak English
		
00:38:15 --> 00:38:19
			we speak Somali we speak Malay, we speak
		
00:38:19 --> 00:38:21
			Chinese or Mandarin but we don't speak the
		
00:38:21 --> 00:38:24
			book the language of the Quran so let
		
00:38:24 --> 00:38:27
			us try to go and take that step
		
00:38:27 --> 00:38:29
			and learn the language of the book of
		
00:38:29 --> 00:38:31
			Allah which is Arabic Barakallahu fi wa sallam
		
00:38:31 --> 00:38:33
			salamu alaykum wa rahmatullah
