We are ready.
And welcome everybody to this weekly class. Apologies
for the slight delay in starting.
I will pass the mic and the screen
to the sheikh, and the sheikh will begin.
The issues of Yahiliya
aspects,
the life of the people of Yahiliya.
So
Islam
came to compact
the Jahiliya,
to approve the Jahiliya,
to eradicate the Jahiliya.
Because simply as you know now, the Jahiliyyah
is
complete
separation
or partial separation
from
following
the revelation,
from following the divine guidance,
from following
what our lord, our creator,
asked us
to do.
So it is this state of mind or
this psychological
state
where man rejects
the divine
guidance
and decides to run his own life
according to his whims and desires.
So he invent
for
himself
wage
by
which he abide.
He abides.
So that's the Jahiliya in a nutshell.
Simply,
it believe the guidance and follow the misguidance.
You worship
your
own own gods, your own deities,
your own whims and desires, and you leave
the worship of the 2 deity,
Allah.
So let's go to this beautiful hadith.
The paps in which the paps says,
says.
And the authority of his father,
I heard
the messenger of Allah
say in the farewell
pilgrimage,
lo,
Pay
attention. All claims to
usury or usury
of the pre Islamic period have been abolished.
You shall have your capital sums.
Do not unjustly,
and you shall not be dealt with
unjustly.
No.
All claims for blood
convenience,
retaliation,
belonging to the pre Islamic period have been
abolished.
The first of those murdered among us,
whose blood
vengeance
the Bashar, also retaliation,
is al Haariz
ibn Abdul Muttalib,
who suckled
among Banu late
and killed by Uday.
He then said,
oh,
Allah, have I conveyed the message?
They said,
Sahar,
yes, saying it 3 times.
He then said, oh, Allah,
be witness, saying it 3 times. Now just
reflect on this habeid.
This is part
of the third world speech
that the Palestinian delivered on the day of
Arafat
on the plain of Arafat,
addressing
around 100,000
Sahabi.
Because that year,
the people
knew that the is
going to the Hajj.
So the ties
flocked from all over Arabia.
Everyone wanted to be to participate
in the Hajj
because this the one who is leading the
Hajj is the prophet.
And he mentioned
many things in that farewell speech,
and this is only a portrait of it.
So here he said,
Allah.
And this when you hear Allah means
lend me your ears.
Pay attention.
So this is an article
you mention
to capture the attention of the people and
to ask them to listen to you attentively.
So when you are reading and come across
this, Allah, keep that in mind.
Allah. So now there is something important he's
going to say.
So
all river
transactions
that were
made and signed, all these contracts
and signed and agreed,
they are canceled.
Means canceled,
nullified,
placed under my foot.
You cannot say
we agreed. We had this agreement,
and it involves and you ask for its
fulfillment.
And you ask the one
who borrowed, for example, money from you to
ask asking him to abide by
that contract, which involves the transaction.
So the prophet
he canceled all these transactions.
That's
it.
But you can get
your
capital sum. That's it. The halal
with no additional
amount which is rebal.
So the suns the capital of suns.
So you will not be
wronged.
You will not be
dealt with unjustly,
and you shall not deal
with others
unjustly. So
you'll not be wrong,
and you should not wrong others.
Then he said,
Allah,
again,
he's going to mention something else.
See, the Arabs, they have this
habit,
which they will not
forget
the blood
of the men
if someone was killed. Even today,
some and the tribes,
Even today,
someone was killed
300 years back,
200 years,
or 100 years.
So here, the prophet
and this shows there are still the remnants
of Jahiliyyah.
So here, the is telling the Muslims,
Pay
attention
that
all claims
for blood,
vengeance,
taking revenge,
retaliation,
belonging to the pre Islamic period
have been abolished.
In other words, you have no right to
ask for and retaliation,
and you are not allowed to retaliate or
someone who was killed
before
Islam
before Islam.
And he,
he began with himself
with his clan, with his tribe,
to be an example for all the rest
of the tribes,
to be a role model for them.
And he's the son of Abdullah bin Abdul
Maqaddir.
K?
So it has Abdul Muqtadib is the product
of Abdul Muqtadib.
So he's saying,
So he's
He began with his own clan,
Benu Hashim,
and this is his uncle.
And the first of those murdered among us,
whose blood vineyards I recollect
is Al Harid
ibn Abdul Mutaleh,
who suckled among Ben Ulais.
This was
the the habit of the Arabs,
and especially Quraysh.
Is considered to be
people of
city, living in city, in Mecca.
And you know when a child grows up
in the city, city life,
he's not that
strong
because
the growing growing up in cities
effect.
So you find this child
is not hard man,
soft
pampered,
unless you know it today.
Just
50 years back,
or less than that.
A boy who reaches 15, he's a man.
Man! You can count on him.
His family
rely on him after all.
He showed this responsibility.
But the upbringing today
spoils the children
Swaddlers children.
So the city life
spoils
the the kids
and their blinking,
And the parents, they're spoiling the children.
And they consider that
by
providing and giving everything to the child,
that is a sign of love. They don't
know
that they are spoiling the child
because they are not going to be there
for him all the time.
So you need to prepare your child for
the hatchets.
Hatchets,
and we are headed towards hatchets,
and child, and fittings.
So you
need
to get rid of this
extravagant
life.
Stop pampering the children.
See the prophet
how he was
bringing up the children.
He was telling
the brother of Annas,
yeah, about
a
child.
He has he had a bird, and the
bird died.
So he was sad. So he was
consoling him.
And he told him,
yeah, about Omar.
Oh, father of Omar, a child. Oh, father
of Omar.
See?
How do you call your children today?
Cutie. Come here, cutie.
Sweetie, come here.
Sweetie. Cutie. Yeah.
The
used to tell the Sahaba,
do not comb your hair every day.
And sometimes
he asked them,
walk without
tools, barefooted,
teaching them hardships,
how to become hard, how to become.
Today?
If your soap is not ironed,
you don't come out
before ironing it.
And you have your own set of creams
on the dressing table
next to your wife,
and you are
taking care of your skin.
Are you a man?
Is this the Muslim man?
So
Quraish,
they knew that fact
so they would not
let their children
grow up in the city.
So in the city,
there are places of entertainment.
So these things will inspire the kids, the
children.
So they would send the children
when they are still infant
to grow up in the desert,
fresh air,
or sliding,
camaraderieing
So they grow as men.
That's why
Halima Sadia,
the mother of the prophet
he
sent her child
to Benusaridah
with Halima
to grow up there.
And that's how the prophet
grew up.
So when he was a boy,
about 7,
Hayase
in Mecca,
He was helping his uncle,
generating income,
money.
He was a shepherd,
taking care of the sheaf of the people
of Makkah,
and they
give
him
money
as
a wage to help his odd ankle.
So here the said,
I remit
the first of those murdered among us,
among Benoitakim,
children of Abdul Muqtad,
whose blood
vengeance
are they met is al Harith ibn Abdul
Muqtad,
who suckled
among the Benulayth.
He grew up in the Badia,
and he was
breastfed by the women in
this tribe
and killed by Hodeid,
tribe of Hodeid.
So that was the case of the Arabs
before Islam
killing each other.
And Hudayl
still, of course, this tribe is big tribe.
They live around Mecca,
and
they are one of the most eloquent tribes.
Eloquent
tribes known among the Arabs.
Hudaib.
Imam Shafi, as you know, he's.
He was born in Gaza,
Abu Bakr,
and he lived among Huday
for years,
among Huday.
That's why Imam Shafi'i is considered Hujia,
a
reference,
an authority
in the regarding
the language and its sciences
because he grew up in Hodei
and killed by.
He then said
after that,
oh, Allah, I have conveyed the.
And
he said,
yes.
You delivered
the message
perfectly,
completely.
So he repeated that 3 times,
3 times.
Oh, Allah,
have I conveyed the masjid. The
opinion
justified
and acknowledged
that he conveyed the masjid 3 times.
And he said,
oh,
Allah, you are my witness.
Oh, Allah, be
witness. He saved it 3 times.
So this hadith,
the prophet, he told us
that things that are linked to
are abolished,
and we
should not ask someone and make someone accountable
for something happened
in Jahiliya.
Another hadith.
And this hadith is scary, really.
This is in turn with the
end.
What a beautiful hadith.
Narrated
that the prophet said,
people should stop boasting
boasting
about
their fathers
who have died,
your ancestors.
My grandfather's this, my grand grand grandfather's this,
etcetera.
So you are boasting.
While they are but calls of *, those
whom you are mentioning,
they are the fuel,
the call
of
hellfire.
Or they will be more humiliated to do
the law
if they do not quit. So should people
stop boasting, if they don't quit the doing
these
things,
posting,
or they will be more humiliated
with the law
than
the dung beetle,
you know, the dung beetle
who rolls dung with his nose.
That animal, that insect that rolls
may take the dung, make it a ball,
and then it rolls it.
Indeed, Allah has removed the pride of Jahiliyyah
from you
and it's boasting about
lineage.
Indeed,
a person
is either a pious believer
or a miserable sinner,
And people are all the children of Adam.
Adam was created
from dust.
What a beautiful hadith.
Let us reflect.
This is the beauty of Islam.
So here, the prophet
threatening
threatening
threatening
us. So any one of us, and this
is still
practiced today
among the Muslims
among the Muslims.
You hear them? Everyone is always boasting about
his grandfather.
You've come to the if you
you hear it in daily conversations.
Oh, we invaded
this tribe when we could this number, and
and this is today.
So this hadith
threatens
Stop it, the prophet saying. Quit.
Saying
that our fathers and forefathers
did this and that.
People should
stop wasting.
Stop at this.
What did your fathers did?
Rogers'
deeds? Yes. We boast about our
ancestors,
about the Sahara,
who served the deed. Yes.
That is our
honor. But people who are jagged,
ignorant,
Most think about their fathers who have died.
And those fathers, they are
in the hellfire in Jahannam.
Jahannam.
And
you are boasting?
Today, you hear some Muslim say,
we are the children of the Falahina.
We are the
descendants of the pharaoh pharaoh.
Musilim.
Wake up.
You are blind about
and you are saying we are the children
of the pharaohs.
That's
this is what the prophet said I'm talking
about,
the children of the fellows.
Firal?
You
are part of that?
They are the call
of. They are the fuel of.
You are boasting
about them,
that they are your fathers.
A man came to the.
They said, oh, prophet,
a person
loves people
for their righteousness,
But he doesn't have good deeds that will
entitle him to be with them in Jannah,
far away. They are ahead of him, but
he loves them.
He loves them.
But he's not as righteous
as they are.
I love them,
but I know that
I cannot be with them.
K.
Their status will be above
me. You know, one of the servants of
the.
The
told him, have a wish.
Wish something. I will
pray for you.
He told the prophet,
give me time to think about it.
He asked him again, have you made up
your mind? Give me time.
Finally, he told the prophet,
So he thought very well.
He ruled out all the things. If I
asked
for wealth, it will go.
Children, they will everything will go.
But I want something that will be forever.
What is it? What is it? He was
thinking.
Then he said,
I want to be with you
in the jannah.
With you always,
to be a companion.
I'm here seeing you every day.
I want to be with you in the
jannah.
Temple.
Told him,
Help me against your nafs.
Right?
So this man asked the.
It is this question.
I love people,
but I I know I cannot be.
My did not encounter me. I cannot catch
up with them.
I cannot catch up with them.
You know what the prophet
said?
You will be with whomever you love.
Whoever you love, you'll be with.
The Sahaba,
when they heard this Hadid,
they rejoiced.
They rejoiced.
The companion said, I love Abu Bakr and
I love
So not
You love the Sahara? You would be with
the Sahara.
You'll be with the Sahara.
You love them, you follow their way,
you'll be with them.
And they told you the story
of Sheikh
This man,
he dedicated
all his life
defending the Sahaba
and the sunnah of the.
In one
lecture
recorded in audio tapes,
he was crying crying.
He was talking about the.
You think, oh my mother. Oh my mother.
At least, what's crying?
So he
died
defending the Sahara.
They tried to assassinate
him,
and they he was giving the talk,
I think, in
in Pakistan, in one city.
And they gave him vase, and there was
timed bomb inside,
and then it exploded.
He didn't die on the spot,
so
he was
taken to Riyadh,
and he died there.
Sheikh Abdul Aziz
asked the authorities
that he should be buried in Baqiyya,
and he was buried in the Baqiyya with
the Sahaba.
From Pakistan
to Badiye.
Battered with the Sahaba because he was defending
the Sahaba
throughout his life.
Muhammad.
You will be with whomever you love, whomever
you love.
So now if you love the qafar, you
will be with them.
You love Farahun, you'll be with Farahun.
So whomever you love, you'll be with them.
To your shoes.
So here the prophet
is saying, those you are boasting about,
they are
the call of *,
the fuel of Jahannam.
And then he's saying,
and if you do not quit, if you
do not
stop
boasting,
you will be humiliated.
You will be humiliated
to such extent. You'll be more humiliated
than this
insect,
the
dung
beetle
that rolls
the ball of dung with its nose,
with its nose.
It will
be humiliated
by Allah.
Allah
has polished your character,
refined
your character,
removed these
ignoble qualities
of Yahiliya
and the pride of Yahiliya.
Subhanallah.
One day,
the ansar was sitting together, and you know
the ansar, they were Aus and Hazaraj
Aus and Hazaraj,
cousins.
All of them
come from one tribe called.
So all the Ansar are Yemenis,
Yemenis.
All the Amstas.
So one of the enemies of Islam passed
by them,
and he saw this
cozy
mating,
this
brotherly atmosphere,
this
beautiful brotherhood.
He didn't like that.
So he decided to spoil that
beautiful meeting and gathering.
So what he did,
he triggered
he pressed the button of Jahiliyyah.
He pressed it.
He triggered that feeling,
Jahiliyyah feeling.
So he reminded them
about the battle happened between them before the
swab.
So when he just mentioned that,
things
that were buried
popped up, come came to the surface,
and each one is
screaming.
What happened to you?
You are, the cops called you.
Now
you pulled your swords,
and you are saying,
oh, my tribal
oh, my tribal
come
to my help.
So one of the Sahaba
ran away to the
to inform him, and he came running.
So he told him, come up. Come come,
oh prophet of Allah. Then
I'm sorry they are going to kill each
other.
You go back to back to Jahilia while
I am present among you.
You go to Jahilia while I'm present among
you.
You revived the call of Jahiliyah while I
am present among you.
Leave the call of Jahiliya.
It is so stinky.
It stinks.
As bad smell,
it stinks.
This daw of.
So when they heard that, they realized that
they were fooled by
the who passed by them.
So,
my dear brothers and sisters,
came to remove this,
to approach it.
And every one of us knows himself,
so try to
get rid of this.
List down. Yes. I have this
Jahili
habit.
The
certificate. Work on
it.
Work on
it.
Racism
is there among Muslims.
Someone proposes? No.
He's a Muslim righteous.
Good.
Yeah. But he's not from, you know,
our family,
our tribe,
our clan.
So we'll not accept him.
So you reject him.
This
is.
This
is.
So everyone knows
these remnants of Yahya.
So you need to work on them.
Islam came to remove all these things.
But Indeed, Allah has to remove the pride
of
from you.
We made you into nations,
cherub,
and tribes.
What for? To boast? No?
To look upon one another? No? So that
you recognize
each other. So you know each other. That's
it. Nothing more.
The most righteous of you in the sight
of Allah is the one who is more
righteous. That's it. That's the criteria.
Who beats you in righteousness
and doing good deeds, he is better
in the sight of Allah
in
the sight of Allah.
Because I have I used to say
about Sayid Nabal and
Sayid Nabu Bakr.
Our master
set free our master.
Our master, Abu Bakr, set free, emancipated
our master,
Bilal. So they called Bilal our master,
though he was a slave, a senior.
K?
And he married from Quraish.
You know?
So this is our Islam.
No room for Jahiliyyah. No room for this
pride of Jahiliyyah.
No room for racism.
Any
segregation
based on
the color or the race.
That's not
Islam at all.
That's
towards
the end, the prophet
said,
Why he put that?
To remind the Sahara.
He said you hear and obey even if
you are Amir
as
a slave from Abyssinia.
To
to suppress this
before Islam.
No way for an Arab
to obey his commander
who's a slave. No way.
Islam. Yes.
So here the prophet
say,
even if the commander
was a slave
from Abyssinia,
He commands you to obey Allah. His messenger
say we hear and we obey.
So Islam came to
purify the souls and remove all these
ignoble
qualities
and eradicate
That's
Tell them of Adam?
2.
Indeed, a person is either a pious
believer,
mukmin,
what a miserable sinner.
And people are all
people
are all the children of Adam.
Our father, Israel,
our mother, Israel.
So there there's no difference.
Adam was created
from dust.
Another
hadith.
Listen to this carefully.
This is in Bukhari.
The meaning?
Even Abbas of the Allahu Hanuma
reported,
Allah's messenger, yes, Allah.
Say, the people
most hateful to Allah
are of 3 classes,
3 types.
He who's
heretically
or heretical
in the sacred territory.
He who commits heresies,
innovations
in the
holy shrines, in the sacred places
in Mecca.
He who is heretical
in the sacred
territory,
he who wants to introduce into Islam
the sunnah
of the pre Islamic period,
and he who unjustly
demands the death of a Muslim
to shed his blood
to shed his blood.
Let's just reflect on this beautiful hadith.
Those are the 3 categories
that Allah
hates them most.
He hates them most.
Can you imagine
can you imagine that
you are one of them,
that Allah hates you most?
So those whom are hated by Allah
and the most hateful
to Allah
are of 3 types or 3 classes or
3 categories.
He commits sins to the.
He commits
heresies,
innovations
in the sacred land,
in the sacred place, in the sacred
territory.
And the Ullam other said, the sins
committed
in the Haram,
in
Mecca, are not like committing sins anywhere else.
It will be greater,
and the punishment will be
severe
because the perpetrator
of such
sins
and heresies
and innovations
in these places,
this shows that he has no
respect for the place.
He doesn't consider the sanctity
of the place.
So he's not showing veneration
and strength.
This is.
Imagine what happened in the
in the seventies
late seventies.
People, they
took the haram,
killing the pilgrims.
She can't fool them,
saying,
we have the Mahdi with us.
It's the first time.
2nd time.
He wants to bring into Islam
Jahiliya.
We don't want
Islam. We don't want the Sharia.
Okay. What do you want?
We want
man made law.
We want the law of the Romans.
Democracy.
We want democracy.
That's what the Romans were
were practicing.
You don't want Islam? No. We don't want
Sharia.
We want Jahiliyyah.
That's what we want.
That's our prevalence.
No wonder
Allah hates you most.
No wonder.
Because you want the sunnah of Jahiliyyah.
That's what you want.
You don't want justice.
You don't want peace
with the Sharia
who fights.
So you want the sun of Jahibiyah.
And he who wants to introduce into Islam
the sunnah. Sunnah means the way.
Sunnah means what? The way.
The way of pre Islamic period, what was
practiced before Islam,
Romans were doing,
Persians were doing,
Zoroastrians were doing.
That's
what we want.
We want
these practices
that were
practiced
and
implemented in those states, we want that.
We want to revive the heritage
of these perished nations.
We want to revive
that their heritage.
When Allah says,
Whomever Allah humiliate
it, whomever Allah humiliates,
you should never find people
who honors
them.
People
are
destroy
them.
We should not revive their heritage.
We should not be proud
of
what they were doing.
We should not honor them.
Allah humiliated
them,
lowered them,
abase them
so they should not have people. No one
should try to honor them
and elevate their status.
Hafsar Shalom, he said,
if you pass
by the dwellings
of those whom Allah destroyed,
Pass quickly
and cry.
Cry.
And you cannot cry, but pretend that you
cry. Try if you cry
and pass quickly.
SubhanAllah.
Pass quickly.
When the prophet
was leaving Al Farhad,
when he reached the valley of Musal,
this is the valley
where Allah
destroyed
and
ruined
the army of Abraha, the Abyssinian
king who came from Yemen to destroy the
Kaaba.
Abrahaal Ashram.
Abraha,
the one who has a slit on his
lip.
That's why it's called Ashlam.
So he moved so fast
quickly to cross the valley.
So this is the second time. He who
is heretical in the sacred territory,
then he who wants to introduce
the second one, he who wants to introduce
into Islam the way of the Jahiliyyah.
And thirdly,
And he who unjustly demands
the death of
a human being to shed his blood
without any valid reason.
There's no reason.
No reason.
Because the blood of any human being is
sacred
except
And that's if he
kills someone.
So capital punishment is the
the
the the
the punishment for the
one who committed murder
intentionally,
so the punishment is capital punishment.
But if he killed someone by mistake,
not capital punishment, but
the blood money and fasting 2 consecutive months.
Because the ulama, they classified
the killing
into 3.
Amt Shabalamt
Chaba.
The amt is the deliberate killing. You killed
someone
intentionally
on purpose.
So the punishment is
capital punishment
unless
the or until the
the
heirs and the inheritors,
the family of the one who
was killed,
either they say we forgive him
or we accept the blood money,
Or we want to retaliate so
he should be killed.
The second type of killing
is what they call,
not intentional,
semi intentional.
And here they give an example. They say
2 were fight
with their own hands,
And one hit the other on a place,
and it was
that ended
his life by that hit.
Normally, when you hit someone, you don't it
doesn't kill, but
it happened.
So here, it is not
intentional. It's not deliberate killing.
So here, there's no capital punishment,
but
the
deer
paying the blood money
and fasting to consecutive months.
The third type of killing is
by mistake.
You kill someone by mistake.
For example, you are hunting in the forest,
and you aim at a gazelle,
and you fired.
At that time, someone
passed,
and the bullet
hit him on the head. So he fell
dead.
So you didn't fire a 10. You fired
at the gazelle,
the deer.
So here,
no capital punishment,
but
the blood money
and the fasting.
Anyway, so
the prophet
said, So
someone intentionally.
And a Zani al Muhsin, someone who is
married and he committed,
man or a woman,
the punishment is
capital, stoned into death.
And the third,
a
are the one who leaves Islam.
That is apostasy, ridda.
Apart from that,
you are not allowed
to kill any human being.
This is regarding the Muslim. Regarding non Muslim,
the same. You don't kill any human being
because the Muslims who are living among the
Muslims,
the same thing.
K?
Their property,
their honor, their blood, everything is
guaranteed,
and
it is the duty of the Muslim to
protect them to protect them.
And if you kill someone who is living,
a non Muslim living among the Muslim, the
prophet
said he will not smell the fragrance of
the jannah.
So this is the 3rd type,
the one who's trying to
unjustly demands. Ungestly, that means there's no valid
reason as mentioned in the Hadith state,
the death of Muslim to shed his blood.
May Allah
save us from the Jahiliyyah.
Purify our hearts from all the remnants of
Jahiliyyah.
May Allah
increase our knowledge and the deed. May
Allah
forgive us our foes and mistakes and ignorance,
and may Allah
keep us to remain
steadfast
on this beautiful deen till we meet him
and find him pleased with all of us,
And may Allah
unite
our.
May
Allah
reward
all of you, my dear brothers
and sisters, immensely
for your patience and attendance.
I was hoping the
admin would be here by now, but,
and until then, if we can start, please
some questions? Okay.
Is it permissible
to eat fermented
foods? For example,
a sourdough bread.
Sourdough
bread is where,
you make the chamira, the yeast,
and then you leave it to sit. And
then you add more sugar to it
till it ferments, and then you make the
bread. That means that's that's what it means
for fermented bread.
He's asking if that's permissible.
Okay. So something
fermented
and then cooked. Right?
Yes. Yes. It's cooked. It's spread. Yes. Eventually
spread. Okay.
So the answer, yes.
Because what is not allowed is
the
what is
what intoxicate.
But the
the normally, the bread,
they
add the yeast to it, chamira,
when they make the dough and cover it,
leave it for a while, and then they
start baking it.
So there's nothing wrong with that.
K? What is not allowed is for
drinks.
You make some drink, for example, you put
glaze and other things and keep them
fermented for a long time, then
that becomes wine,
and it intoxicate. That is different.
I hope this is clear to the question
now.
It is clear. We go to the next
question.
Sheikh, is it okay to eat
1 to 3
dates
instead of 7
in the hadith to get the benefit that
was mentioned? I can take more than 3
due to worry of health.
Someone who's diabetic, you mean?
Yes, sir.
Okay. That is the case.
The hadith talks about 7,
and,
and this number 7,
there there must be some reason behind it
because if you read the narration 77777
all the time.
So the hadith says 7.
K?
So now
I'm diabetic,
and that my doctor said this is the
maximum because the sugar will shoot up.
So you are taking 3 because you cannot
take more.
So inshallah, Allah will make shifa for you
in that.
K? Because Allah knows your intention, and you
see Allah to the best of your ability.
But if you
are able to take, take second, but the
hadith says second.
Is this related to the question?
This is clear, Sheikh. Otherwise, they can ask
again the next question.
When one is sick with a cold like
symptoms
or COVID, can they temporarily
avoid eating from the same plate as their
family to avoid
contamination
or to continue with the sunnah?
Yes.
You don't eat with them.
And if you have COVID,
you should go and
through quarantine.
Should not commingle with the people
until you make the test, and it becomes
negative.
This
is
our Islam. This is what the Islam teaches
us.
You
are
sick, isolate yourself.
Be in isolation.
Next question, please.
The next question.
We know it's haram to spit in the
direction of the Qibla.
What if I'm facing the Qibla and my
head is turned downwards,
and I spit in front of my feet?
Is that permissible?
Yes. If you spit down
at your feet, that's permissible.
But to spit like this
towards the pibula duct is not allowed. Yes.
The next question, Sheikh.
Hadith
in Bukhary where Ali Radiallahu An
was lying on the Masjid and the prophet
said
or mentioned him, Abu Turab.
Why he was mentioned as Abu Turab?
Yeah. This is,
beautiful, Hadid.
Because I, father
on her one day, she made her husband
angry.
And this is a lesson for the husband.
K?
Because a woman is a woman. This is
Fatima.
Imagine Fatima.
But she's a human being.
So she made Ali angry.
So Ali
he left the house,
but where did he go?
He went to the masjid.
He played to the house, and he slept.
The papa suddenly came
to ask about the Ali of the so
he asked his daughter, Fatima,
where is your cousin?
She said he left,
and he was
angry. So the prophet knew knew where to
find him.
So he went to the masjid, and he
found him there sleeping.
So what did he
slept in the floor,
and then
the the piece of cloth under him
was pulled while he was asleep.
And now his cheek on the dust on
the earth,
but the masjid was not furnished, was only
furnished with sand.
So the papa satan tapped him on his
shoulder and said,
oh, father of the dust.
It was his cheek on the dust.
So that's why it became the that
for.
Okay? Is this clear to the question?
Shall I just clear?
Charlotte, it's clear. Next question.
My question is about Muslim founded names. Is
it correct to name and label ourselves with
names like,
Tablirki,
Salafi, Sofia, etcetera?
No. No. This name should be avoided.
Should be avoided.
We are
Muslims,
but now
I'm a Muslim.
Allah called us Muslims.
But
how do we understand this Islam?
Because what happened to the Muslim, there were
many, many
deviations happened among the Muslims, and many groups
of Muslims
deviated from the state path, from the true
Islam,
the true Islam.
So all of us, we have to follow
the true Islam.
The true Islam means what?
Kitab and Sunnah, authentic
Quran,
hadith and Sunnah.
And we understand this deen
as it was understood
by the prophet and his companions. That is
the Islam we have to follow,
not the Islam which has been contaminated
and influenced
by
the Greek
works
by Inimikalam,
by philosophy,
not Islam which is
being
contaminated
and polluted
with innovations.
Not Islam
that calls for tomb worship,
worshiping the same saint worship,
which is most of the Suvis, the mystics,
they do,
grave worship,
that's not a part of Islam.
So it's the Islam
that the prophet
said.
So every Muslim
every
Muslim, leave the labels aside, every Muslim
has to follow the prophet
his companions, and the 3 generations
understand that the deen as they understood it.
That is the Islam,
the correct Islam, the pure Islam.
So this what every Muslim should do.
And leave the labels and no need to
mention that and this or that and this.
I'm a Muslim, but I understand Islam
and follow that what the prophet
was upon. Not that I'm a Muslim,
and
your understanding of the deen is totally different
from the Islam
that the 3 generations
were upon.
I hope this is clear to all
to the other questioner to to all the
audience and the course questioner in particular.
Sheikh, we go to the next question.
Is it permissible to go for a marriage
meeting alone?
Here, a boy wants to see the suitor.
He wants to marry according to the sharia,
but he feels shy and uncomfortable
to meet with the girl's family alone.
No. You have family. Take your family with
you.
This is it. We say when you marry,
you don't marry a woman. You marry a
family.
So family go to the family.
So you take your family with you.
And this, that, of course, you're like a
revert and you you don't have, then ask
some
Muslim brothers to come along with you. You
don't go by yourselves.
Next question, please.
The next question.
My question is,
you mentioned about the hadith of the prophet
regarding a Muslim
residing in the west.
Brackets forbid it.
Please elaborate
what are the exemptions,
if any.
No exemptions.
No exemptions
for a Muslim living among the kafar except
of the dua.
If you are doing the dua and spreading
the deen and you are maintaining your deen
And your deen is not at stake.
At the moment, your deen at stake, and
you are in danger, and your children are
in danger, and they are going to lose
your children. And you see what is happening
nowadays
in Europe to the Muslim kids
being taken away, and they are crying.
Crying.
I lost my children.
You lost your children.
And on top of this,
you are accountable before Allah
accountable before Allah
because
you are the cause of their loss.
So when the prophet said,
This hadith should shake you.
Shake you.
Imagine your prophet is saying, I wash my
hands of any Muslim who lives among the
mushroos.
An
innocent of any Muslim who lives among the
Muslims.
So if you are living in a Muslim
community and it is a strong community
and you have your own masalids and your
own schools and
you are maintaining your deen, and you are
doing the
dua and calling So
at least you have an excuse before Allah.
What if you are not
serving the last deen and you are not
sharing the message and you are not calling
others
and you are losing your deen
and you are losing your children?
What excuse
do you have before Allah
Your capital is your deen
and you have to
maintain this. The moment you feel your deen
is at risk,
you pack your stuff and you look for
a place to where you will be able
to worship Allah
and bring out your children and protect them.
Since
since this is our shalaam.
This is our deed.
People nowadays, they are complacent, and they are
happy with the dunya. They don't care
if they lose the deed. They don't care
if they lose their children.
And the hadith talks about
such people.
So the hadith is very clear. May Allah
make it easy for the Muslim.
May Allah protect you, protect your children,
and protect your deen Amin.
Next question, please.
Next, we will take some questions on the
mic in starting with Abu Diop and then
Aisha.
Abu Diop, please unmute your mic.
So I have a question concerning
Jahili. I don't know if this one is
Jahili.
It is a tradition
my country,
when people are celebrating
a, marriage,
there are some
there like, there's a group of people they
are known for
coming and praising people and,
talking about they they
they ancestors, like, saying, oh, you are the
the son of son of,
the son of so and so and so
and so. So people give them money. Is
that does that fall into
Jahiliyyah?
They come and say you are to the,
to the to the the
bridegroom.
To anyone,
present in the in the marriage, like, if
they know his,
his family name,
so they know the genealogy,
and they get they will start reciting the
whole genealogy
or this or that.
Yes. That's what they
say.
So for so that they can get money?
Yes. Yes. So this is this is the,
this is like their job in the society.
Like,
Yeah. So we have carpenters and all those.
So they are like the artists of
the of the society.
This is what they say in my languages.
Okay. So do they mention just the your
ancestors,
the genealogy,
or they,
displays others?
They just
mentioned the genealogy.
Yeah. This is what I know. They mentioned
the genealogy
and talk like if if a person had,
for instance,
a
an ancestor that was brave, they would mention
that he was this, he was that.
So,
yeah, I was I always shunned them because
I don't like those things. So I just
wanted to know if you're still part
of the Jahiliya or something.
See, it can be it can be from
Jahiliya, and it cannot be. It can be
from the Jahiliya
if you are boasting about your ancestors.
Okay? And the hadith we mentioned today is
talking about,
being to boast about
your ancestors,
and you don't know.
And many of them, especially
among
the I know
that the the some of those tribes,
they are still having remnants of
and they killed many each other, and still
they fight each other.
K?
So that is not acceptable.
But to for someone to recall his own
ideology,
that is fine.
Say, I am the son of so and
so, son of so and so, son of
so and so.
This isn't a.
And the the wisdom behind this, to know
your genealogy,
is to know the
extended family. K? So, oh, he is from
my family. So there is a.
So I have to connect, and they should
have tie with them.
K? So to know your genealogy,
the the Nasar, the genealogy for that reason,
this is fine.
But those are making business of this. I
would not recommend, and it's it's it's not
a good practice.
And the law knows best.
Okay. And I have a second question.
Yeah.
My second question is regarding,
Salah.
This,
this Assur, I was,
I came into the mosque. I was late.
The
I found the the imam, Irulqo.
And
as
as I
was bowing,
he raised up from.
So,
I raised up,
but I heard someone like
an imam in my neighborhood. He said that
I have to stay in the position of
until he
he goes to,
the until the imam goes to prostration,
and I follow.
Is that is that true?
No. No. You perform the,
but, you don't consider it as because when
you bowed,
when you went to, he already stood up.
Right?
Yes. Yes.
Okay. That you cannot count because
if I manage to find the imam still
in the Ruku, then I count that
and consider it as one unit of.
And here,
if the imam is,
it is better that you make the takbir
to haram and takbirat in Tikbal. But if
I'm afraid
that if I make takbirat
second takbirah, he will get up, so I'll
just make takbir to haram
and follow the imam of a court to
catch the raka.
But if I didn't manage to catch the
imam while he's of a court, I don't
count it.
I say
then I get up, and then I
follow the imam.
I prostate after that.
Are you following?
Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. I'm following. K. And
So I I you have to go to
the ruku.
Mhmm. Say the ruku.
Mhmm.
Get up, then follow the imam. So maybe
that what the imam meant.
Oh, okay. Okay.
Because by that time
but because by that time, the imam already
frustrated.
So you will not prostrate
you will not prostrate before the imam. That
what he meant?
Yes. Yes. Yes. Okay. What he meant that
he should not go straight because he stood
up so he went to straight. No. Say
the,
the,
get up and follow the.
Is it clear to me? Yes. Yes. It's
clear. It's clear.
Okay.
We now go to
sister Aisha. Please unmute your mic.
I have a question. Actually, I'm I'm asking
on behalf of my brother.
Yeah. Allah
has given him a day off just maybe
like a few years ago, and he's now
studying more about the deen. And I don't
want to give him the wrong information, so
he asked me,
to get the answers
for 3 questions that he has.
Would you like me to ask them 1
by 1, Shaykh? Or can I ask Yeah?
Yeah. 1 by 1 by 1, please. So
his first question is,
if if it is known to us, why
Allah
has a throne? Because he feels, you know,
to his own to his own logic, but
he feels like this is Allah. Like, why
does he need a throne? So do we
have a explanation for this?
Before I answer this question, first of all,
As believers,
Allah says that he cannot be questioned, rather
they will be questioned.
So we don't ask Allah,
why did you do that?
Who are we?
Who are we?
So first of all, let us
show respect
towards our creator,
and let us see our limitation.
K? Then the question if you ask this
question, why did he create the heavens?
Why did he create the? Why did he
create hellfire?
So Allah
is the all wise.
Al Hakim,
his names.
This issue, these problems come
through in the minds of the
of our children
because
Aqidah has not talked to them.
The concept about Allah, they don't know who
Allah.
Allah.
There is no
respect for Allah.
We don't feel the greatness of Allah.
The greatness of the creator of the heavens
and the earth,
the greatness of the one who brought us
into being from nothing.
Nothing.
We went nothing,
and he created us.
And yet you find some
Muslims,
they question,
why did he should do this?
Imagine the creature is questioning the creator.
Question again.
So
the question can be refreshed
about the wisdom.
Wisdom.
So the,
they say,
the wisdom of creating
the throne is to show Allah. Allah
manifest his majesty,
his grandeur,
his glory,
his greatness.
It's a way of manifesting
his majesty and glory
He created. He's not in need of the
throne.
He's not in need of the
the kursi.
Everything is created by him subhanahu wa ta'ala.
He created the angels who carry the throne.
And the prophet
said, I was permitted
to describe 1 of the angels who are
carrying the throne.
And Allah is the one who carries all
of all of his creation
dependent on him.
K? It's not the throne that carries Allah.
Okay? Keep this in mind. Okay?
So he said, one of the angels,
The lobe of the ear of the angel
and the shoulder
is a distance. I think
a distance that will be covered in 7
7 100
years.
What years? White years? We don't know.
This is one of the angels.
So Allah created these things
to show and manifest
his,
his greatness.
Don't you know
that on top of the Kaaba,
is al Bayt al Mamo, another Kaaba, house,
The Malaika, they make
around it.
Brothers and sisters, I believe there's been a
a little technical issue.
Just bear with us. Sheikh will be back.
Can you hear me?
Yes. Welcome back. We can hear you.
I don't know what happened.
So so Allah,
he shows his greatness
by creating
these
creatures
that
throne
is created by Allah
which is
the greatest thing you can imagine because the
the
includes the heavens and the earth,
encompasses the heavens and the earth.
And then the prophet
did mention that
the
the size of the in comparison to the
throne like a ring you throw in the
desert.
Like a ring you throw
in the desert. What what's the size? There's
nothing. Insignificant.
Insignificant.
So the ulama, they say
that Allah he created the to manifest
his,
his greatness
Is this clear to the questioner, the first
question? Second question?
Shafi, my brother, he was also asking, about
the 7 heavens
if we if if we know where they
are.
I know. Maybe it's like a weird question.
I'm sorry. Please forgive me.
No. No. No. 7 heavens, we don't know
exactly. I mean, what what we know
that the
with the night of Merlai was taken up.
K? He was taken up,
ascended to heaven.
And Allah
says,
So the the Malaika, they ascend and they
go up and come down,
so above us.
And
we know that we are floating in this
space,
our earth.
And what we see is not the sky.
It's not heaven.
All these cosmos,
the whole universe, the whole cosmos
is below
the first
heaven,
below it.
And there are 7 firmaments,
the 7 heavens,
some are somewhat,
which is something human mind cannot
imagine and cannot comprehend
because it is right.
It is right. So we have to respect
our gray matter, the our mind because our
mind is limited.
You see,
if I am in inside my room and
somebody is locking
knocking on the door, I cannot imagine him.
My mind cannot tell me who is at
the door
because it is.
And this is
the distance between me and the knocker is
the thickness of the door, and I cannot
my mind cannot
tell me. I cannot imagine
the one who's knocking.
So we are limited.
We are limited physically,
mentally, everywhere. We are limited in every aspect.
My sight is limited.
I can see only to a certain range.
After that, I don't see.
Now you are
talking to me,
then we shake hands.
Bye. And you started heading away.
And I am standing,
and your
image is diminishing,
diminishing, diminishing
till you are out of sight of the
range of my sight. I don't see you.
Though you are there, I cannot say you
are not there, but I cannot see you.
This shows the limitation of my sight. The
same thing, the limitation of my hearing.
So we are limited.
Our minds are also limited.
Cannot tell us about the and the unseen.
So the only way to know about the
unseen
is to
believe in what the creator of the unseen
told you.
Just in the same way,
the one who's knocking, you said, who was
it?
You ask.
What do you want?
You don't start speculating.
Oh, you are so and so. No. I'm
not.
You are a man. No.
You are told. You are short. You are
speculating.
So the best thing is to ask, who
is it? What do you want?
And the best thing to know about who's
knocking is to ask him to describe himself
to you.
Not that you start describing
him
because
you are not seeing him
So the
the knowledge
of the the knowledge of the belongs exclusively
to Allah.
So we have to accept what Allah told
us about it.
So the prophet
he was taken on the Mi'raj
to
the 7 heavens.
In that night,
something
we cannot digest.
It's our minds cannot comprehend.
That's why Allah
said, insulah tell Isla,
he started it with what?
With what?
He started with.
Glory
be to Allah
to tell us
this is a divine action.
No one can do it except
me.
So that's why he said,
glory be to Allah, the one
who took a servant.
So Allah took him.
And to Allah,
nothing is
difficult.
So he was taken.
He
went through the 7 heavens,
and he saw
the Malaika, and he saw the
the Jannah.
He walked in the Jannah.
He saw the palaces of the Jannah. All
that.
Is this clear to your brother's
question?
Yeah. I I will tell him at another
time.
And okay. Now we're gonna make a a
cut. Basically, this is something totally related to
something else that's related to.
So my brother, he washes like, when every
time well, when he finishes his with a
clear water, so he finished everything, he he
usually makes the let me call it, like,
the big with the
the. Right?
And then he washes his his head with
shampoo. Now that confuses him.
I told him it's okay, but I wanted
to get your confirmation on this if this
is counted as an extra step or if
this is okay the way that he's been
doing.
So I'll explain to you the.
The.
Mhmm. The,
the he would take, first of all, normal.
Normal.
Except he would leave washing his feet.
Then he will start raising his hair
and the rest of the body,
and finally, he would wash his feet.
So
take.
Now you want to use shampoo.
Okay. Use the shampoo. No problem. Then you
rinse your hair,
and then the water you rinse your body
with water, and finally, wash your feet and
leave. This is the correct way.
Is this clear?
Yes. Yes. Thank you so much.
Okay. We go to the next question.
Sheikh, can one accept a compensation from an
organization
for misconduct
towards them? Will this money be halal?
Would you mind repeating?
Can one accept compensation from an organization
for misconduct
towards them?
Will this money be halal?
Compensation?
Yes, sir.
Because of misconduct?
Yeah. So so they done something of misconduct
against the person.
So they paid them compensation. Would it be
halal for them to accept it?
Okay. So maybe they say something about him
affected him, affected his reputation,
and so they tried to expiate
for what they have done. So they consider
this is
a sign of
regret or they are
sorry for what they had done and the
damage they caused.
So the answer, yes.
He can.
He can take
it. Providing it is not haram.
I mean, from haram source.
They
they talked about him,
and he got harmed,
or his company was affected or whatever.
So the answer, yes. He can take it.
If he doesn't want to take it, that's
up to him.
Is this clear to the question?
Yes. That is clear, Sheikh.
We go to the next question.
Assalamu alikum Sheikh. My mother passed away, and
she was left some jewelry, which is earned
by both
my mother and father,
how should it be distributed? Does my father
own all of it because he also earned
it?
Now she
she passed away, Rahimahullah,
and that
gold is her gold. Right?
For her gold?
Yes. Your father, he bought it for her,
etcetera, but they did her.
So now that gold is your mother's gold,
and now it is part of the
the terrac.
It will be distributed
among the heirs,
added to the money, whatever
is left.
And so this gold should be evaluate
I mean, evaluated
to the price of it,
and then 2, it should be
distributed
among the inheritors, the heirs.
Is this clear to the questioner?
The next question.
Sheikh, I am clearing things and came across
a couple of booklets in my possession.
They've written English, Arabic words in English.
The contents are
Should I keep or dispose of it? Please
advise.
I
didn't
read the book.
Okay.
So how can I decide? But,
ask the people who are,
around you
to have a look if it is having
some anything wrong, shit, and stuff like that.
Yes.
You should do it. If nothing is wrong
in in this work, you can keep it.
Next question, please.
Yes. That was our final question of tonight's
session. If you'd like to conclude.
May Allah
bless you. May Allah protect you and protect
your family, and may Allah
elevate your status in this world and may
Allah keep us remain steadfast on this beautiful
deed till we meet Allah
and find him pleased with all of us.
May Allah unite and unite
Until we meet in the coming session,
I leave you in Allah's company and protection.
