Brothers and sisters joining us on YouTube and

Zoom

Without any further delay, I would request the
honorable sheikh to begin
in
Today, Insha'Allah,
we'll talk about Ma'arif Adeen al Islam Bil
Adila.
You know the oath of
he began
this small book booklet
by saying
We have talked
in the previous sessions
about
the knowing Allah
and knowing his prophet
So today,
we'll be
talking about Nur al Adeel in Islam Bil
Adeelah,
knowing the religion of Islam
by proofs
through evidence.
I want you, my dear brothers and sisters,
to keep in mind
that
the
words of the
and
the scholars of the past,
they were very concise,
very short,
but they are full of meanings.
See now,
we have four words,
or rather, if we consider the bar,
that there are 5.
So now we want to know every single
word.
He started by saying,
which is
the knowledge.
And you know
that
the
ranks of comprehension
and then
al Jahal
Masih, yahmurakah,
Aban,
a Shek,
and.
So there are
6 ranks. I hope that you recall.
So the definition of the
is to know
things as they are, as they exist in
the outside world.
That's the
That what you have in mind,
coincides
is congruence
congruent
with what is outside
in the world.
They are the same identical.
But in the mind and what's outside
are replica of each other.
That is in.
The opposite of it is the gas, the
ignorance.
And no need for me to elaborate because
this is recovered already.
Now is there a difference between
the Marifa and the
the
the
knowledge,
and
the the answer, yes.
The end is more specific,
and the matter is more general.
In other words, in the VIN diagram,
there are 2 circles.
The most inner circle is the end,
and the outer circle is the manifold,
the knowledge.
So every is
and not every is
because the
is more,
specific.
And the knowledge, the is
general.
So that is about
the so knowing the.
What is the meaning of the word deen?
Deen.
I hope that the brothers and sisters
are learning Arabic
because my dear brothers and sisters are learning
Arabic,
our knowledge will remain
superficial.
So I encourage all the brothers and sisters
to start learning Arabic.
So the word
it is a derivative noun.
Derived from the root,
Dana
Dana.
So the word dean
is a derivative noun
derived from the root,
and this verb,
sometimes
it is
transitive
by itself.
Remember,
the verb can be transitive
and intransitive
just like in English.
So if the verb is transitive,
it requires, of course, an object.
So Dana
is a transitive verb
and it exists in it is this transitive
form
or state
by itself
by itself.
So you'll find the verb
as we are going to see the examples.
And sometimes
it becomes transitive
using the letter lam lam or
ba.
It will be followed by the lam
or by ba, the the letter ba.
And then the meaning will be different. I
hope that you are following.
So the the verb, dean, is derived from
this root, Dana.
The root the verb Dana exists
in the
as transitive
verb by itself.
It doesn't need
any help or auxiliary
any letter to help it.
And sometimes it requires
two letters,
either
ba
or lam,
l, la.
Because you know, my dear brothers and sisters,
in Arabic,
if the verb is if the verb is
intransitive
and we want to make it transitive,
then we bring
another letter to help to make the
infarctitive,
transitive.
For example,
means he went.
The madman, no object.
How to make this intransitive
transitive?
You need the help of using a letter,
which is the bat.
That's why Allah is saying,
insurah al Baqarah,
we know
is in transitive.
How to make it
transitive?
The bat came here.
Why the bat came here? To make the
in transitive verb
transitive.
So now,
Ghana, it exists
by itself,
in many cases,
as transitive verb. But sometimes,
it requires the help.
So that's why we it will be followed
with ba or lam.
Now you will understand.
An example
and, of course, the meanings will be different.
When Dana is used by in it
by itself, the meaning will be different.
When it is followed with lam, it will
be different. If it is followed with that,
it will be different.
So keep this in mind.
So Dana
so now I think Dana who?
Dana
who?
Dana
and then the
which means
the
pronoun.
What does it mean
means
he owns him?
He owns him.
He controls him.
He runs his affairs.
He subdues him.
He holds him accountable for accountability.
To reward, to recompense.
Oh, this Donna.
The day of the Din, what does the
meaning of the day of the Din?
The day of the Din means the day
of recompense,
because everyone there on the day that day,
everyone on the day of resurrection,
say you done,
which means he will be held accountable.
Right? That's why it is called the day
Yom Adin
Yom Adin, the day of recompense,
the day of,
accountability,
the day of reward.
So Dana,
Dana, by itself,
it has all these meanings.
Dana, who means he controls him,
and Allah
is See?
He is the owner, our owner, on the
day of Deen,
on that day where everyone will be
subdued,
controlled,
no one could talk, no one could say
anything,
the day for accountability,
the day
of recompense,
the day of reward.
So this this are the different meanings
the verb Dana gives
when it is when it exists on its
own
and not followed with the letter
lam or bar.
If it is followed
with the letter lam,
we say
Dana, who? There
Dana, who?
Dana,
who? Means
he owns and
that's why he's the owner of the day
of resurrection,
Dominikin.
He controls everything, Subhanah.
He runs our affairs.
He holds us accountable
for our deeds.
Whereas, if
it is swallowed with the lamb,
means to submit and obey.
To submit and
It is followed with now.
To take a particular belief and follow its
teachings.
Some might be now are saying why we
are going through this. You'll understand
now. Because you need to understand what's the
meaning of.
So,
regarding,
if it is done by itself,
not followed with ba or la,
so it means here,
he owns house, he controls, he runs, he
subdued,
he holds,
someone accountable,
reward.
If it is followed
with with,
it means to submit and obey.
If it is followed with,
to take that means to take a particular
belief
and follow its teachings.
That's why
you take something
and you say, this is my
So
that means
he is taking
this relief as his deen, as his way
of life.
Obviously, meanings might be above those and sisters
out there in the definition of the deed.
Why?
You understand?
Because the deed controls the behavior of the
followers, so
it controls.
The dean runs the terms
of the followers
according to its teachings.
The deen demands its followers
for full submission.
K?
So they have
to have this
submissiveness to Allah that
So all these 3 definitions
are there
in the meaning
of the din.
So that is the linguistic
meaning of din.
The technical definition of the word din,
technically,
So the definition of the
now as a
technical term
used by
the scholars of or
the theologians, Muslim theologians,
they say the deen is the
divine
law
that is received
through
that is received through
through the regulation.
So the set of instructions,
the law that came down
from Allah
through the that is the deed.
And this is heavenly religion or the Samawi.
So this definition, my dear brothers and sisters,
you can see
it has excluded
it has excluded
the
false religions.
False religions
may don't fall under this definition
because
they are not based on revelation,
the false religions.
And, and I might just say the definition
has to be
The definition needs to be
Conclusive and Inclusive.
Totally Inclusive and Totally Exclusive.
What does it mean?
It means
it includes
all its elements.
So all the elements
are there within this definition.
No single element
is omitted.
That is inclusive,
Ghana.
So it was under the definition.
All these things, they came from regulation.
So all these components,
they fall under this definition.
So no single
command or injunction or section
can be excluded
from the definition. So it is jammer.
At manna,
it excludes
so it includes
only its number
and excludes
the number that do not belong
to this definition
to the definition.
So this definition
about the deal
that it
is
the divine law that is received
through the prophets
and via
the the
Afghan.
So this definition
excludes
the false
religion.
But also false religion, Allah called them Deen.
Called it Deen.
So we need to have a definition
that will also include the false religion.
This definition
is applicable only for
the religions that are
sent down by Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
How about the false religion?
How can we define
false religion
when the Quran quoted Deen also
as in Surat
al Kavirun.
You have your Deen and I have my
Deen.
So the
our code was the profile
on dean.
So how to
have
a generic definition
that covers both?
So the comprehensive definition,
which can cover both,
that the dean of religion
is to believe
in the sacredness
of a deity.
You believe
in a deity and that deity to you
is holy
and sacred.
Then this meaning is associated
with a strict adherence
to a code of
conduct,
which shows
love, submission, and devotion
devotion
towards the worship deity.
So now this definition
covers
whether it is a true religion,
being, or false
religion.
The true religion, yes, it is a religion
to believe in the sacredness of a deity,
and the deity that you worship is Allah.
And then this
has
to follow has to adhere and follow a
strict
conduct
code of conduct,
do's and don'ts,
which shows that your love, your submission,
and devotion
towards
this deity which you worship, and our deity
that we worship is Allah.
But other false
religions, yes, they have a deity they worship,
and they have a code of conduct they
follow.
And
they show love and submission
and devotion
to this false deity that we worship.
So here, the definition becomes now
more
comprehensive
and it covers
both.
So now we know the meaning of deen.
We know
Dana,
it is derived from the Dana.
So Allah
when he called it Deen,
yes,
because
he owns us,
that's why.
Called the Deen,
he controls us.
He runs our affairs.
He will hold us accountable
on the day of resurrection.
It is also
a day for reward
for the righteous
ones. So that's why Allah call it din.
And Dana
be he
and Dana Rahoo.
Dana Rahoo means to submit.
That means
this what I believe.
This is my belief
when it is that.
If it is that,
means to submit and obey. And all these
three mean it, they are there
in the definition of the deen
because the deen controls the behavior of the
of the followers.
It runs the affairs
of the followers according to the teachings, the
revelation,
according to the teaching of that deen,
and also
it demands its followers
for full submission and devotion.
So that's the meaning of the deen, my
dear brothers and sisters.
Now which deen? Al Islam.
Okay? Deen al Islam.
So now we know the meaning. I hope
that
you understand the meaning of the word deen.
So now we are talking about deen al
Islam.
Deen al Islam.
Not deen al Nasara,
not Christianity,
not Judaism,
not Islam.
So
it is very important,
my dear brothers and sisters,
that
the terminologies,
the words
are so clear in your mind. Once you
understand
the vocabularies
and each individual word,
then the definition becomes clear,
and you'll
understand the
the definition,
thoroughly.
And Islam,
the word al Islam,
al Islam,
knowing the knowledge about
the deen. We know not the deen.
K? It's that way of life. So the
deen means the way of life which you
adopt.
So in Islam,
this word has two
aspects.
Two ways
to understand it
or two meanings.
One meaning is general and the other is
specific.
So there are there's a general meaning of
Islam and there's a specific
meaning.
The general meaning
in the general sense,
and Islam means to worship Allah
according to what he revealed through
his prophets
until the end of the world.
So this is the meaning of Islam, and
it is in the broad sense,
in the general sense.
Worshipping Allah
according to what he revealed,
the revelation
until the end of the world.
So in this sense,
all the prophets, they were Muslims.
All prophets and messengers, they were what? Muslims.
Their followers,
the followers of Musa alaihi salam, at his
time, they were Muslim.
The followers of Isa alaihi salam, they were
Muslims. The followers of Solomon David,
etcetera.
Because
they worship Allah
and according to what he has revealed to
them.
Allah
says,
And do you remember when Ibrahim raised the
foundation of the house of the,
both praying, our lord accept this from us.
You are indeed the old hearer hearing
the unknowing.
Then the eye after
it, like
So now
our lord make us both
fully submit to you, because the Muslim
is the one who submits
to Allah.
So Ibrahim Muslim
and Ishmael Muslim.
And from our descendants.
So the descendants
of Ibrahim
were Muslims.
The descendants
of Ishmael, they were Muslims.
Show us our rituals
and turn to us in grades.
So this is in
1 127
to 128.
So
so here,
in that world sense,
worshiping Allah
according to the liberation
that was sent to them.
Also,
Allah
says in Surat Lukeman,
try 22.
Whoever
fully submits
themselves to Allah
and is good doer
or a Muslim
is in the state of the he
He is a.
They have certainly grasped the firmest handholds
and with the the outcome of all affairs.
So Allah saying,
so here in the loud sense of the
word Islam, you surrender.
You submit.
So when you submit
yourself to Allah, then you are a Muslim.
No submission, you are not a Muslim.
Even if you are from
the followers of prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa
sallam.
No submission,
which is one of the conditions of
So you have to submit.
No
submission. No Islam.
So here
whoever submits,
so this
is Islam in the broad sense.
And taught me the interpretation of dreams.
Oh, originator of the heavens and the earth,
you are my guardian in this world and
the hereafter.
Allow me to die,
Muslim,
as one who submits
and join me with the righteous.
So
Muslim,
I want to die as a Muslim,
someone who submits to you.
Also,
Or did you witness when death came to
Jacob?
He asked his children,
who will you worship after my passing?
They replied,
we will continue to worship your god, the
god of your fore forefathers,
Abraham,
Ishmael, and Isaac,
the one god, and to him we all
submit.
So,
Yahu Alaihi Salam
and his children, Al Asbat,
they were Muslims.
So this is
the
Islam
in
general
sense,
in the broad sense. So
those prophets in Michigan, they were Muslims.
But after coming,
the coming of prophet Muhammad, tell them
the word Islam has now
a specific meaning.
The reason
you need the,
to know the difference,
because now there is a trend
saying that
if you follow
what
the prophets came with,
then you are a Muslim.
Which means
your Judaism,
Christianity,
Islam, the same.
Yes.
And they call this Abrahamic faith.
This is wrong and
exceptional
because
all
the
laws that came down before the the prophet,
all the were
obligated
obligated
by the Islamic
law.
The Quran
talked
about
those prophets.
At that time, they were Muslims,
worshiping Allah alone
based on the revelation they received,
but then people
diverted.
And even if someone say
for the sake of argument
that no, no change happens, so I'm following
it.
No. It's obligated.
You have to follow
what the prophet wrote,
and Allah has taken, and we mentioned this
before.
He took the covenant
from all messengers and prophet.
If
my prophet comes
during your time,
you have to believe in him and support
him. And all prophets and messengers
agreed.
Agreed.
And that's why, Isa, alaihi salaam, when he
comes back, he would just follow the prophet,
the deen of the prophet. He will not
bring anything,
and he will play behind the Mahdi, as
you know.
So to say,
there is
a Brahminic faith
that all the 3
reveal religion.
The same? No.
Religion is only 1.
And
Islam. But the laws, the Sharia are different
and those laws are obligated.
That's why the prophet when
he saw
reading
few leaves
and pages of the
Torah,
he got upset.
And he said,
are you in doubt?
By Allah, if Moses, the son of Imran
is alive,
he would not have any
choice except to follow me.
To follow me.
So now,
the definition of an Islam
is specific,
and it means following prophet Muhammad
and
what he approached.
That's why
he said
That's what the prophet
said.
Any Jew or Christian from this Ummah,
because the Ummah of the prophet said,
two types,
Ummah the Dua and Ummah and Ijab.
Those that we have to invite to Islam.
So the Jews and Christians,
they are from Ummat and Ijab, a Dua.
So that's what the prophet said.
He doesn't believe in what I have sent
with or came with.
Allah will throw him into the empire.
Allah will throw him into the hand fire.
Allah will not accept from them
because Al Islam,
which the total submission to Allah
through
what was revealed to the prophet,
that is the final.
So this is the specific meaning of Islam
which refers
exclusively
to what Allah has revealed to
our prophet, and
that's what Allah is saying in Nadina in
the way of Islam.
In Adina in the world is Islam.
The only religion acceptable to Allah is an
Islam.
An Islam.
And this is in Adi Imran, I 19.
And also,
Whoever asks,
seeks away our gun.
In Islam
to not be accepted from him.
And hereafter,
he will be among the losers
among the losers.
So now,
any human being today
does not accept Al Islam,
he will be among the losers.
He will be among the losers. This is
what Allah is saying.
Whoever
seeks other than Islam as a way of
life, as a deen,
will not be accepted.
Except to follow what the prophet's telling folks,
which is this deen al Islam.
Okay? Because now we understand
the meaning of deen,
the way of life.
So the way of life Allah wants us
now to follow is what the prophet
He follows Allah that Deen al Islam
will be among the losers.
Even if he follows
a belief
that came before,
a law came before,
he follows it
and leaves
what
the false I fell about. It will not
be accepted from it. He will be among
the losers. Leave alone if he is following
false
dean, false religion.
By default, he is among the losers.
So this should be haqida, should be clear
in the minds of the Muslims.
They shall not be deceived
from the court.
Okay?
See, Yousef Alai Salam is Muslim. Ibrahim is
Muslim and so?
We are all Muslims. No.
They are Muslims. Yes. They follow they were
Muslim at that time. Yes.
But today,
no.
Because we know what happened.
We know what happened to the scriptures.
So the the messages were distorted.
That's why Allah sent the last revelation
for the guidance
of mankind,
which is of Quran.
So deen of Islam,
the deen, the way of life Allah will
accept is only
an Islam
which
we are upon
and which
the
prophet
wrote.
And that's the last phase.
And that's why Allah
is reminding us
about this bounty and blessing.
Islam.
This
day
I have perfected
your religion,
completed your religion
for
you. So the deal has been completed,
effective.
And completed
my favor upon you.
Islam.
So I say, and I am pleased
with
Islam
as your deen, as your
religion.
So the deen that Allah
has chosen for us is our Islam,
and it is this what
the
prophet wrote.
So if someone follows other than what the
prophet has wrote,
then it will not be acceptable. Right? We
accept it all then,
and he will be among the losers
among the losers.
Remember,
know you or Christian hears of me, then
he does not follow what I came with
except that the law will
throw him to the hellfire.
So,
Marifa, we know the Marifa.
Remember,
Marifa.
Deal.
So we talked about the Marifa, the knowledge.
Deen,
the way of life.
That's why why it is called Deen because
Allah
will call us for accountability,
call us to reward us to recompense,
etcetera.
Deen
Al Islam. So now you know the meaning
of Al Islam.
It has 2 aspects.
2 general meanings. 1,
Islam in the broad sense or in the
general sense,
which means
worshiping Allah
according to
the revelation he sent down.
So the prophets and messengers
at the
times, there were Muslims
and also their followers, and that's why they
will be in the Jannah.
But after coming
of the prophet,
all these laws are obligated,
and no one is allowed to follow what
the mission gives on purpose before.
All human beings, they have to follow the
final revelation,
which is
the the
Quran and the Sunnah,
which is.
So now
a Muslim is one who follows
what the prophet
wrote.
And this is the deen Allah will accept
in the in the.
This is the
I hope
this short
words,
and Islam
are known to everyone. And the last word,
So what is?
What is?
Is the plural
form of.
So what is?
The word,
it is the thing that leads to what
you want.
The thing that leads you
to what you seek, to what you desire,
to what you want, that is the delete.
That is the delete.
I'm talking now
purely
linguistically.
So the thing
that helps you
to get what you see, to get what
you want, that is the the deal.
For example,
if you are traveling
in the desert, you want to cross Arabia
as many of the,
Europeans
cross Arabia.
They could not cross with them by themselves
because
they would get lost and die in the
among the sound Jews of Arabia.
So they have to have Dalil
Dalil.
Someone to guide them
in their journeys.
That's why they took the bad ones.
Right?
As a delete.
So the person who leads you in your
journey
is your delete.
Or in the
tour? The tourist guy.
The guide
who leads you
and explains to you that is your delete,
your guide.
The postdoc suddenly when he migrated from Nakkad
to Medina,
he had to have Dalil.
I mean, we have no right
because he knows the way to Medina.
So the
is that thing which leads you to what
you see,
to your to your goal, to what you
want.
So now when we say the delete in
the religious text,
what is the delete? What is the proof?
So here, the sheriff is saying,
my Arabic should delete
the proof, the evidence
for your deed,
which will
lead you and leads you
to arrive at the have to know
the halal and the haram. You need the
daleel. You need evidence.
That's why
the definition of
in
the religious context
or thick context,
especially in
which is very important science
as students of knowledge needs to study it.
Without knowing,
you will not understand the deal,
and you will not understand
how to deduce the rulings
from the
from the evidence from the truth.
So the definition of
they said
So the definition of the is
the textual
proof,
the textual
evidence.
That means
the evidence which is in the text the
text, the Quran and the Sunnah.
So the textual
proof or evidence
from which
a ruling
pertains
related
to our actions
can be deduced,
I repeat.
It is the textual
proof
from which a ruling,
Herkom,
pertains to our actions
as worshipers,
as servants, and slaves.
The actions of the worshipers
can be
deduced. So that is the definition
of the or
the delete.
So it is the evidence
from which we can deduce
rulings.
From the evidence,
which is mentioned in the text,
or Hadid,
and they will deduce
the ruling from that text.
So that is called the delete
because that is what you benefit
from the evidence.
And
the
can be either
from the,
which is called
Delhi summary.
I'm sorry. Today, it is a technical,
class.
K? But this is how it should be,
the.
So
the can
be
which means
textual proof,
The proof that is deduced from the Quran
and the sunnah.
That's why it's called
because
it reach us through the hearing.
That's how the deal was transmitted
orally
to
hearing. They heard the prophet, the
Sahaba
transmitted it to the next until it reached
us.
So there is salary,
textual proof.
And there is summary
or the textual
proof can be only taken from the Quran,
from the from the revelation.
You don't have
textual proof, the real
sorry.
We'll not accept what you are saying.
So produce your evidence.
So bring your moham, bring your daleel
if you are telling the truth.
You don't have daleel, you don't have evidence?
Suddenly,
from the revelation.
You are just speculating,
and no one is ready to entertain
such
ideas or such thoughts.
So remember
that the deal is taken from the revelation
or.
Al.
Allah
is saying
Do not follow what you have,
No shoe knowledge up.
Indeed, all will be called to account for
the hearing, sight, and intellect.
So all these things faculties will be questioned.
So if we don't have you
don't have knowledge,
don't speculate
because it is a sin. It's a major
sin.
Allah
says 1 116.
You're not falsely declaring with your tongues.
This is lawful
and that is unlawful.
Only fabricating lies against the law.
Indeed, those who fabricate lies against the law
would never succeed.
So don't lie.
Don't say anything that you don't know.
If you have questions, say I don't know.
Imam Malik was asked 40
questions.
A man came from Indonesia,
Spain.
Forty questions. He answered only 4. 56, he
didn't.
Question I said,
what should I do? What should I say
to the people of Spain
and Andres?
And Malik told him told them that Malik
didn't know.
Very simple.
Yep. Today,
everyone is a.
So do not forcefully declare with the accounts.
This is lawful and that's unlawful.
Only fabricating lies against Allah.
Those who fabricate lies against Allah will
never
succeed. This is a threat.
Never succeed. That means they will go to
*.
Say,
my lord has forbidden open and secret
for us,
indecencies,
sinfulness,
unjust aggression,
associating others with Allah in worship,
a practice he has never advised,
and attributing to Allah what you do not
know.
That you attribute to a lot of things
that you don't know.
You don't have any.
So the ignorant should ask
the people of North.
Don't
answer
when you don't know
because you are committing a sin
and see what Allah is saying.
Allah,
join.
Associating
partner with him.
Also,
the ones who talk about Allah without knowing
and attributing to Allah what you do not
know.
So the
we're not the meaning of the
It's what leads you
to what you need, what you seek,
you want to know. Is this
haram? Is this
is this?
So the text
will tell you the evidence,
the ayah or the hadith,
and it has to be in the revelation,
the evidence.
So that
is the real summary.
There's another type of the real,
which is rational one,
intellectual proof.
When you reflect
using your intellect, using your mind,
you will arrive
that there is a creator
of this universe.
There must be a creator
who raises the head the skies without any
pillars.
These galaxies,
everything is in order.
There must be a creator
and one who controls this universe.
And that is the
the simple man, the Bedouin, he said
There's a dogging,
which means there is an animal past here.
There must be a cuddle.
Otherwise, how this dropping
the waste?
Well, I thought they're not done. They do
not understand. They are good friends. That means
people passed there.
Otherwise, they would not be footprints.
This is the effect, so there must be
a
And this constellations
sky is full of constellations,
galaxies.
And
the earth which is full
of passages among the mountains.
Are these sufficient
proofs
about the
The subtle most subtle.
The most aware, so there
must be there there is another type
which is the intellectual proof.
Which is the fatwa.
When you reflect, you will arrive at this.
And that's why Allah subhanahu
alahe placed
those who use their intellect,
those who
make the devil, those who
hunger upon the creation of Allah.
So Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says in Surat
al Anha Abrahamran
a191.
That those who remember Allah is standing,
that means in the prayers,
sitting,
plain sitting, and lying on their sides when
they cannot sit or stand
and reflect on the creation of the heavens
and the earth.
They reflect.
They ponder.
And pray, our lord,
you have not created all of this without
purpose.
Glory be to you.
Protect us from the torment
of fire.
Now
I think I will stop here because
how to understand the, this will leave it
for the coming
class.
So my dear brothers and sisters,
So you know Allah,
and
they addressed it and talked about it.
Islam.
Knowing,
You know the meaning of the now?
Way of life.
And Islam,
two meanings.
The another one in the,
what the prophets in the field were upon.
Specific one, the latest, what the prophet
wrote.
You need to know the deed by the
proofs,
textual proofs, which are derived from
the wahid, the revelation.
How to understand
the
that's what we are going to address insha
Allah
in the coming class business.
May Allah
increase our knowledge in the deen, and may
Allah
accept our deeds and your deeds, and may
Allah
grant us the sincerity and this loss, and
may Allah
forgive us our faults and mistakes and ignorance,
And may
Allah keep us remain steadfast
on this beautiful deen till we meet him,
and he is pleased with all of us.
And
may Allah reward all of you.
My dear brothers and sisters,
immensely for your patience and attendance.
Sheikhna, if you if you permit, Insha'Allah, we'll
take some questions now. Yes. Yes.
Okay. Brothers and sisters, as usual, please raise
your hands if you wish to ask a
verbal question.
To do that,
please press on participants and press on raise
hand. We will begin with the written questions,
which we have received quite a few already.
Okay.
The first question.
I want to
get the feedback of the brothers and sisters
if what I have have said today in
this particular class is known to them.
So if you can provide feedback, brothers and
sisters, with a written or verbal. Verbal would
be nice as well to hear,
as you're asking your question,
feedback
regarding today's today's session, if you understood it
very well.
If not, please do, ask your questions for
clarification.
And that is for every session, to be
honest.
He likes to know his students and that
his students are understanding.
So please keep that in mind for every
session to give feedback
so we can pass it on.
We begin with the first question.
In Surah
Al Furqal, aya 70,
Allah says,
he will replace the evils of such people
by good deeds.
Does this aya refer only to the reverts
who embrace Islam,
Or is it also for the general Muslims?
Meaning, if I do something bad and repent,
Allah will make my sin a good deed.
It is for all.
For all the Muslims. And this is
So if someone
repents sincerely,
Allah's bounty cannot be limited.
Allah is the most generous,
subhanahu wa ta'ala.
So Allah
replaces.
All those sins I have committed
are substituted with good deeds.
He multiplies your
until they outweigh your.
Your good deeds, he multiplies them
until they outweigh your sins.
So then they will tip the palace, and
you'll go to the Is
that clear?
Yes, Sheikh. Very clear.
We'll take the next question here.
My question is
the messenger of Allah sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam said,
it is not permissible for a man to
forsake his Muslim brother for more than 3
days.
Each of them
turning turning away.
So if one's family member criticizes him and
the message of Islam,
when he reminds them of Allah and his
messenger and they criticize him by saying,
never the prophet said it,
and it is not for this time, and
it is not
fitting our society.
In this case,
is it permissible for him not to talk
with his family members because they are criticizing?
That's the first question of this person. They
have a second question,
which is, related to hijab.
Okay. So this question,
here in this regard,
I remind myself and my brothers and sisters,
I said
Talk to the people according to their understanding,
their
level.
So
sometimes,
maybe a Muslim would say, no. The public
didn't say
this either because he didn't understand it and
he couldn't comprehend it.
You're just ignorant.
So
then if that is the case, those people
need to be educated
because otherwise, we
can make cause them to be to commit
COVID
because they are ignorant. They don't know.
That's why said,
do you want the people
to be like Allah and his prophet?
Because you are talking to them and giving
them things
they can't they could not comprehend and understand.
So when we are talking
to our
families
and our Muslim,
family members,
first of all, the has
to evaluate
and see the people, the level of the
people,
the percent of their Islam,
what they know.
If their level is k g one,
you have to come down to that level.
That's why, my dear brothers and sisters, we
have to go to the basics.
Basement.
The Muslims nowadays, they lack the basics of
Islam. Basement.
They don't know what is how what's the
meaning of a Muslim.
Yes. I am a Muslim, but I will
not accept.
Don't you see the contradiction? I'm a Muslim.
I will not accept.
It doesn't make sense to me. So where
is the submission? You're not a Muslim.
Because the concept
of Islam is not clear in his mind
or her mind.
They are combating and fighting Islam and they're
saying we're a Muslims.
We are Muslims. You're not Muslims. How can
you still be a Muslim?
You are
opposing and fighting Allah's reign.
So many, they don't know.
The concepts are not clear in their minds.
That's why we need to educate.
We need to go and clarify these misconceptions
and make the concepts clear
in the minds of the Muslims.
See, this,
text we are studying together,
the Sheikh, you see, the efforts he put
to Rahim Allah
to establish the strong foundations
to establish the strong foundations
so that you will be able to understand
your deen. That's what he's saying. Muhammad bin
in Islam knowing your deen
with the evidence, with proofs,
not by just imitation
and,
following
your,
forefathers or your family.
So now coming to this question,
you need to talk to them
slowly but surely and
in a nice way.
And then don't give them strong doses
little by
little, and be patient,
and show them.
Have mercy towards them.
Let them feel that you care for them
even if they are harsh
to you.
Even if they are harsh.
Maybe you can work
1 to 1.
So make supporters for you inside the family.
First one, the brother, then the sister, and
things like that.
This is my advice for you.
However,
if they know
and they are not
that ignorant.
And you are explaining to them
in nice way, and you tried all your
best.
And the moment you talk about Islam or
something, they
attack Islam or attack the,
then
you can take another stance,
but that's only
the final
thing you do. First of all, try
try your best
to
educate them. Yes.
The next question now, the second part.
The next question, Sheikh, again seeking advice.
How to deal with a family
who is forcing a sister to get married
with a person who isn't religious,
and he don't like doing hijab in front
of his brother,
meaning her brother-in-law.
They have to see Allah
and this is harm
to force a a woman or a girl
to get married to someone she doesn't like.
First of all, it is haram. Second thing,
the marriage is invalid.
So no one, they can't can't force her.
Because
at the time of the father
forced his daughter to get married.
And she came and complained to the
So the told her,
if you want, I will nullify the marriage.
Cancel it.
No one can force you. This is your
life. This is your life.
Then she said no.
I will accept it, but I want the
woman
and I want the parents to know
that they cannot force their daughters.
So no one can force her.
This is our life.
And that's what the pastor said.
So when
the righteous
come to you, approach you, ask them for
the hand of your daughters, then they're married.
Otherwise, there will be widespread corruption.
So it's one
that
is righteous, pious,
and
manners and character,
both.
Not only he's religious, but also he's having
outstanding
character.
And, of course, he can look after her
financially.
Not that he's in the door.
So he can open a house, and he
can look after the family.
Then let him have it.
Otherwise, they will this will cause.
So,
parents should see Allah
and they should not force
their daughters.
And my advice for the sisters,
marry only
a husband, a man who fears Allah
and who will look after you,
and he fears Allah
so that he will help you
to maintain your deen.
Not because you are desperate,
so you accept
anyone.
No.
Don't accept.
Sometimes,
he's alcoholic.
I say and they try the parents reject
they want to get rid of her.
To them, she is
a stigma. She's a.
They feel this is causing shame for them.
So they want to get Josephine.
He's bad. She say, you know my daughter.
You will guide him. You reform him.
And what happens?
He
changes the girl,
affects her,
and makes her a sinner like him.
Because the woman,
by nature, she's weak,
K?
So that's why,
she's.
So you should know
whom
you give your daughter to.
1 who fears Allah.
Is this clear to the questioner?
Yes, Sheikh. Very clear. We
will take the next question insha'allah.
Brothers and sisters, again, if you want to
ask any verbal questions, raise your hands insha'allah
by pressing participant
and then pressing raise hand.
Okay.
The next question, Sheikh, is what are the
ways that a woman can make niya for
dying as a shahid?
The prophet
he
he asked was Sahaba,
whom do you consider as a martyr? They
said the one who dies in the battlefield.
He said then the martyrs for my are
less.
Few.
No.
He said, then he started mentioning
those who will be considered matters.
He said, Al Macron Shahid,
the one who dies
because of the plague
is a shahid.
The one who dies because of abdominal disease
is a shahid.
The one who is,
drowning.
It's
Shahid.
Someone
the house collapsed over him.
It's a shahid.
And the woman dies in the labor. She's
a shahidah.
Shahid.
So there are many martyrs.
So there are
and the prophet said
in the Sahih Muslim,
he will get the reward of the Shahid
because of his sincere
near.
After the,
he paid,
and he asked for and
to die in Medina.
Some heard him. They said, there's no jihad
in Medina. He said, I
I'm not you.
From the in Medina.
He was a stabbed.
He died in Medina
and buried next to the.
So if you ask him, see Allah,
who got you? What you ask?
Is this clear to the question now?
Yes. Sheikh is clear.
We'll
take the next question.
The next question is, can we go to
non Muslim countries to visit their
natural sites
traveling for fun?
No.
Traveling
for fun and traveling to
for tourism
to travel countries is haram.
You don't do that.
If you travel, you travel for the.
So travel to go to Muslim countries.
There are many beautiful places in Muslim countries.
But take your families
to non Muslim countries and take your children
and they see all these dirty stuff,
should not do that. So but if you
travel,
your knee is the dua to Allah,
to the deen of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
That's right. The all I know is they
say it is not allowed
for students to go or study
in non Muslim countries.
If that specialization,
that field,
that particular discipline of knowledge is available in
Muslim countries,
They should not.
And if it's not available, then
they should be married,
and you should know
his deen, and he has
enough knowledge about his deen
that he will not be affected and influenced.
Is this clear to the questioner?
Yes, Sheikh. Very clear.
We'll take the next
question or more like advice.
May Allah reward you immensely, Sheikh. I got
a proposal, and my family informed them that
I cover myself from head to toe.
Follow
and follow the way of the Salaf, but
they and my family want me to go
in front of non,
and I rejected the proposal.
Now my family is really hurt because of
my rejection.
Even living in Muslim country like UAE where
Islam is still being practiced current correctly,
they are saying you will never find someone
who follows the way of the salaf.
Please advise me, Sheikh.
Their words are making me weak and feel
bad.
May Allah strengthen you, and may Allah keep
you remain steadfast, and may Allah Azzawajal,
I ask him by his beautiful names
and divine attributes to send you and to
bless you with a pious
husband who appears Allah
and who follows the deen of
in Islam and who follows the footsteps of
the prophet and the footsteps of the Sahaba,
Amin.
So don't worry, my dear sister.
Hold strongly to the robe of Allah,
rely on him, and keep praying to him,
and the relief,
inshallah, will be soon.
And the law will ease your situation,
but don't compromise.
Accept
this is your life,
so you accept only whom you want.
And leave what the people are saying.
People,
they talk.
So their
words should not help you.
It should not help you. It is just
as the prophet said,
for the man.
He said,
okay. Choose the one who has the
The same thing for the woman.
So
I have a
So you look for the righteous.
And, you know, you believe in the.
And Allah
sees
your situation,
just get up at night
and start shooting the arrows,
the duas to Allah
The duas,
the supplications at night,
like others, they go to heaven.
From your heart, you cry, all your heart
in your sujood.
And, Insha Allah,
You will get what you want with me,
Put your confidence
and May Allah bless you with the price
and light. Just
Ameen. Ameen.
For the advice, Sheikh.
Abu Diop, we'll take your question. Please unmute
your mic.
Assalamu alikum.
May I reward you
immensely for for this class?
I've gained much knowledge today.
And also, may I reward That's okay.
Was it clear to you today?
There's,
there's this I have this, confusion with
the and
the item and also
have to clarify the definition of of the
dean. I have 2 definitions here, the technical
and,
linguistic.
And if you don't mind, I need I
need some clarification. I'm gonna read that definition
and, so that you clarify provide that to
me if you please.
Yes. And, so the first thing is,
could you give me a,
an example
on
and
if there's an example.
Okay.
See,
you know, now the n
the n is the,
the certainty,
k? Which is exactly
you remember, I don't know whether you attended
that class.
Okay? Yes. I did. Okay. So the n
you know, the thing as is.
Okay? 1 plus 1 is 2. This is
n.
This is n.
Then there is the bun
when the
probability maybe 80%.
Right?
So most of the knowledge
falls under that area.
It's not 100%.
It's not like the the European. It's not
the the end. So the
is less the the certainty
is less the percent if the certainty is
less the.
Whereas the aim, the opinion is 100%.
So and the knowledge,
the scope of it is broader.
Okay? So you know about history. You know
about
other disciplines of knowledge.
But the the it's not the the,
reaching the or the certainty.
There's a possibility
of
uncertainty there.
You you cannot say that this is 100%,
well, is the aim is 100%,
because the in the,
whereas the ban, the conjecture is less than
that. So the the others, they con bun
and the and this, they fall under the.
So the is broader,
and the
is more specific.
Did you understand or not yet? No. No.
I understand. So,
you're saying that
is,
is 100%
is,
and the,
is are you both
yeah. Restaurant. Is it's just like that. And
then we we have in Marifa,
Al Al Alwam, Alshek, and Adan.
The couple under that. That is these are
Yeah. Yeah. These are the They can of
certainty.
Yes. Understand now.
Balaklafik. And the
let's see. The dean
the dean have 2,
two definitions here. So the first definition is
the linguistic one.
So I wrote, the dean runs the affairs
of its followers. They submit to it. It
requires submission and devotion. Is that correct?
Yes.
Okay. And the technical one is the divine
law received
through revelation?
Yes.
And, if you don't mind, I have, I
have 2 questions. 2 of 2 other questions
related to other things. Okay.
Yeah.
Is it permissible to to allow a non
Muslim or non Muslims,
in a in a Muslim country for tourism?
The answer, yes. And
and this is they call them.
That means you the when the you give
them the visa to come to your,
country,
you have to,
make sure that, yeah, they will be protected.
They will be protected.
So no Muslims is allowed to hurt them
because you are giving them you've granted their
safety, like, when you gave them the visa
to come to your country.
So the answer, yes? No.
And the other question is,
a Muslim brother
lives with another Muslim and another Muslim and,
a non Muslim.
So he lives with 2 people, a Muslim
and a non Muslim.
They bother him a lot, and they they
put on music.
They put on films,
and, he
so the Muslim brother doesn't want to hear
that, and he tells them not to
not to bother him. They use,
he asked them to use, headphones or something
like that because he doesn't like music and
and and those types of things. And they
bother him at at night.
They call they call people. They shout while
he's sleeping.
So when he complains,
they tell him,
you are,
going extreme. We are just having fun or
something like that. We are not bothering you.
So, how like, what do you advise that
brother
who
complains?
Well, this brother,
he he should leave them.
If they are roommates
and they are living together,
they may be sharing the same flight or
things like that.
Just to move,
if you can.
No.
Can he? I can't fix. Yeah.
It's a he he lives in a,
dormitory.
Okay. This is what I expected. It's a
goes on the dormitory or outside in the
universities.
This, what happens? So he should ask and,
go to that nurse. I can say, this
is my situation.
Okay? Those people, they are disturbing me. I
cannot sleep, so I want
either to have another room or with some
people who,
they can
they don't like music, for example.
No.
Okay.
We're gonna move on now. We've got quite
a few comments and, questions. So let us
move on.
Sheikh.
Okay. Next question.
Sheikh.
Can you please shed some light on a
book called Al Shifa
by Al Qadi Iyad
about characteristics
and the rights of the prophet
how to love him, etcetera.
Would you recommend us to read or study
it?
The book of a is a good book.
And but choose a copy that is
the the hadith got checked.
So not some.
So look for a version that all the
narrations or those the,
the evidence of the hadith are checked. So,
you know, it is whether it is authentic
or weak or things like that. But this
is a,
nice book. It's a Shiba
by.
Okay. The next,
question.
May Allah reward the Sheikh immensely.
I would like to know how to tackle
the naughty children and discipline them. Kindly advise.
The dua. May Allah guide our children and
your children.
So the dua
and,
and
taking them out.
So maybe sometimes you have a hyperactive
child,
and he's locked
in the flat, and he wants to go
out. So he is jumping here and there
and
driving his mother knot
because he has energy. So he has to
come out and
dissipate it and bring it out.
So children,
they need to play,
and
parents should know that.
And,
child cannot be,
behave like an adult. He cannot sit.
So we have to give the children their
right also.
They should pray,
and
we should take them
over the in the weekend. Family also.
See, our dean is so beautiful brothers and
sisters.
So on the weekend, you can take your
family.
Go to the countryside
and,
enjoy yourselves and the family.
Let them have halal fun.
Children, they need to play for 12 and
things like that.
So a child needs to play.
And,
said no.
Anu used to call on the phone,
and his children are jumping on his back.
This is the.
So when his the governor saw him, one
of the governors said, what is this?
The children are jumping to you and you
are like their mounds.
Said no more said, oh,
tell me tell me about you and your
children. What do you do?
Says,
oh, when I enter my home, when I
go to my house,
the moment they hear my voice,
everything comes comes to stand still.
No one talks. If one is standing, he
said if someone is lying, he
I know.
He said, really?
This is how
you
treat your children?
I said, yes.
Said you are not the governor anymore.
Cannot lead your governor
if you don't have rama
and mercy towards your own
children, how come you she show rama
towards the the subject?
Said, now mommy learned this from the prophet
Philip.
He was in the sujood,
and has another same person is back.
And
the The child is enjoying
it. So much so that one of those
had
to divide down. Maybe the
died.
He saw the child sitting.
And the prophet explained to them, I belong
to the city because my son was sitting,
and they didn't want to spoil his wound.
This is Muhammad
and so how have they learned from him?
So we have to show
this kindness and love towards our children.
And
the
sum
of
patience.
And the
the may Allah guide our children and your
children, army.
Is it clear to the questioner?
Okay.
Quite a few comments coming in with feedback.
Sheikh explained it very well. May Allah reward
him immensely.
And many other comments which I will mention
Let's take this one for
What is the second type of Dalil called
in particular?
Like, first is Dalil.
Which is the
the daily that is based on the revelation.
It's called summary because it is conveyed and
leads us through
the oral transmission.
Daily, actually, the intellectual. That is the second,
the intellectual
evidence of the intellectual.
What you deduce by using your intellect,
by reflecting on the creation of Allah, and
you will
deduce the evidence that there must be a
creator. No creation without a creator.
Is this a question?
Yes. That's that's, the question. They spelt it
some hay, so they must have,
of course, meant
something the other. Okay. Next question, Sheikh. Assalamu
alikum.
Sheikh, my question is,
Dean,
as you said in previous classes, it is
and
then how can we accept
because it is not Dalil from Quran.
Okay.
The color to
will be always
how they understood
the Sahara
because the Sahara,
they will not
say something which is
not based on the evidence
of the understanding
of the Quran.
So their understanding
is the best understanding.
No one can understand the deen better than
the
because
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala,
first of
all, he reveals the Quran in their mother
tongue,
so they know it.
They know Arabic.
Second thing,
they witnessed the revelation.
They witnessed
the revelation.
So they know.
This aya
came down because of this.
And this is as of Nabas and when
God says, I stopped if Nabas for every
day aya.
So their understanding
of the deen
is better than the understanding
of those who came after them.
So when he
said so this is the deed.
Their understanding because Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala praised
them.
He praised the sahaba,
and he told us and warned us.
So
whoever contends with the
so whoever contends with the
So whoever contends with the messenger
and opposes the messenger and follows other than
the way of the
So Allah Subhanahu Wa'ala
saying
Whoever contends with the messenger
after the has come to him.
So the guidance has come to him.
And he follows other than the way
of the Who are the here?
The Sahaba.
No
in this except the Sahaba.
And the whoever follows
other than
and he follows the path other than the
path of
the
We
shall leave him in the path he has
chosen.
So Allah
is warning us
from
contending and opposing the messenger
after guidance has come to us
and follow other than the path of the
Muwini
or other Sahaba.
So following the way of the Sahaba and
the way they understood
the deal
is a must.
If the Sahaba this is how they understand.
They understood the this ayah or this and
this, hadith,
and there was a consensus
about it,
then no one has the right
to choose other than than what the Sahaba
went upon.
Because the Sahaba,
Allah
is saying,
and Allah
is saying,
Allah is pleased with the and those who
gave you the pledge
and the the the allegiance under the tree.
Allah says
Allah promised all of them Al Harsa, which
is Al Jannah.
And he said
The
best is my generation,
then the next, then the next.
And he said
that the stars
stars the stars in the sky
is a security
of the heavens.
As long as they are stars there,
the day of death is not
view yet.
And my Sahaba
is also their presence. It's a security
for my Ummah.
Their presence
making
the the situate the Muslims secure.
They believe secure.
That's why most of the and innovations and
this
appeared after the Sahaba,
when the generation of the Sahara,
passed away.
So, yes, the deal, our said, the prophet
said, and not the Sahara
because that's how they understood the deal.
So we are talking here about their understanding,
the understanding of the Sahara.
Not that the Sahara, they bring something
different from the,
from what is there in the Kitab and
Sunnah. Now even the the and
the
is the is the
Yes, Sheikh.
One reference request
has come.
The hadith about,
Umma Adawa.
Umma Adawa? Umma Adawa?
Yes, sir. Yes. Okay.
Just they wanted the reference for that Hadith.
I can't remember the Hadith. The Hadith is
a.
Mhmm. And, it's it's in the in the
Sahid, but, which book now I I don't
recall. Yeah.
Yeah. We can provide the latest. No problem.
Taeib, next question, Sheikh.
In this ayah, Allah says to not take
your relatives'
kinship,
ties as your friends if they prefer to
disbelief.
And whosoever takes them as friends,
those
are evildoers.
That's
verse 23.
Yes. The only thing I wanted to know
is the 2 types of Ummah. Can you
explain this a bit more?
And also when Rasul
says, umati, umati, will it include the 2
types?
That's from Muhaajabin,
2nd edition to question on October 23.
Okay. I think this is a second question.
So, yeah, the first
The first question is about the
the
Hadid of the prophet.
So,
yes, it is the,
talking about the
not.
So those
those who will,
drink from the, the and those who will
be taken from the are the not.
No.
If they become
those who become Muslim
But if they
remain,
non Muslims,
they will not be from the of the
they will not enter the. They will not
drink from the house, etcetera.
Is that clear?
Yes. It's clear.
I'm trying to understand the next, question they've
asked here.
Regarding regarding the hadith, is it on Sahih
Muslim Sahih Muslim?
The hadith about the Jews and the Christians.
My
Okay. Next question here.
My question is, when we say the mauled
Nabi celebration is not allowed in Islam, but
they say their proof is,
well,
is that enough
for us to accept them to say that
they have proof?
What proof they have?
What's the proof? What's the evidence?
Did the prophet
celebrate?
If he did, we will celebrate along with
them. Did the Sahaba celebrate the birthday of
the prophet?
If they did, we'll celebrate along with them.
The the 2nd generation, 3rd generation, the 4th
imam celebrate, we'll celebrate to them. So where's
the proof?
Where is it?
Show us.
We'll have to provide a.
Reduce your evidence if we are telling the
truth.
But your proof is what the Fathimites did.
The Fatimaites who killed the Sunnis in Egypt,
they are your role model and they are
your example.
So you're following them.
So where's the proof?
The question I will ask them, where's the
proof?
Is that clear to the questioner?
Clear,
Okay. I'm gonna read some comments here from
from the,
students,
and, some of them have questions attached to
them.
The first one is.
May Allah reward you for all your efforts.
And, yes, the sheikh's
exposition
is always thorough with great depth to enhance
its fervor having a board having a board
with which to write the Arabic terminology
on or this being posted in the chat
area would improve,
my notes.
So I think, they're trying to request, maybe
to write in Arabic,
some terminologies when we cover terminologies.
We'll see if that is possible.
The next one is a honorable Sheikh
for such detailed and specified
explanation of the terms.
Although all Muslims including me
perhaps may know these term very vaguely
until now, but today due to the detailed
explanation, the terms are very much
clear to me.
May Allah grant all the Muslims that they'll
fit to understand and comprehend the detailed meaning
of these common terms.
And may Allah grant you all the blessings
of both Aker and Duniya for sharing this
beneficial knowledge
and protect you from all the evil of
the creation. Amen.
I would like to ask a small clarification,
be regarding the 2 types
of that you mentioned. Would you kindly repeat
and explain a little about this?
And related to this, I wanted to know
when the prophet
will say, yeah,
umati. Yeah. Umati. Does this include both of
the types?
I think I answered this, Raf. Yes. It
is the ummah of the Ijaba, not Ummah.
So those who will come
because when you say my ummah, my ummah,
and the angels are taking them away from
the howl, the fountain,
are the, the ummah of Ijaba.
We we, those who replaced as well.
And that's why he said to when
he he was asked how how how will
you recognize us?
The place
of the will be shining,
will be light.
So he sees the sign, so he knows
this.
So it is
not
No one will come to his counter. No
one will come to his house
because they remain disbelievers.
The same thing, like example, when he said,
Abu Jahal is
the pharaoh of this
Ummah.
The pharaoh of this Ummah. Which Ummah?
What is Dua?
He's their
He's the the pharaoh of them.
Is this clear to the question?
So when the prophet
saying, on the day of resurrection, he's talking
about and
Those who responded and those who become Muslim.
Is this clear to the question?
Yes, sir. Clear.
The next comment here
is reward,
the share.
I enjoy
every bit of the lesson. It is very
clear and very detailed.
Okay.
Okay. Now
let's see if this is a question here.
Follow-up on the verse,
in this.
Okay.
I think this is a follow-up question.
Follow-up on the Tawba verse. In this eye,
Allah says to not take your relatives,
kinship ties as your friends if they prefer
to,
yeah,
if they prefer to
disbelief and who so ever takes them as
friends, those are evildoers. My relatives are in
bitter and misguided.
I am thoroughly in my Dawah to them.
How does this apply to me
as I am still maintaining the relation with
them as they are my kinship?
Allah is commanding not to maintain relationship
here clearly.
No. Allah's not talking about the, the disbelievers,
not about the Muslims. Your family are Muslims.
And even if your,
one's families are,
okay,
still
you need to
be kind
in order to soften the heart to accept
Islam.
That's why
the daughter of when
her mother came to visit her,
she asked her about,
said my mother
came to visit me and she's a. What
you're gonna do? Say be nice to her.
Be kind to her.
Honor
her, be generous with
her. So read the serum, my dear brothers
and sisters, and see how
the Sahara was dealing with their families.
So even if they are disbelievers, your parents,
for example, you we cannot reverse.
So if they talk about bad about Islam,
leave
so you don't hear what they are talking.
But we should not give up, so they
tell you on.
So when it comes to the issue of
the,
that is about the the,
the battlefield,
all of those are really
they don't want
to accept the deal, and they are not
interested. So
that is their choice.
But you should always choose
now we are talking about Muslim family.
They're not disbelievers, they're not gathered.
So you should have the and
talk to them with Hikma.
May Allah
sharpen the hearts and guide them. Allah is
the one who guides.
Because
when we read the seal of the prophet,
let me see how he he dealt with
the with the kuffar
and
how kind he was
to Rasalem.
Upon whose heart the Quran came. So he
knows the Quran,
yet he was praying for them
and asking Allah's heart, I want you guys
Though they hurt him, though they,
assaulted him all this.
You all know the hadith when,
he went to a fire and what they
did to him.
So when the angels, they told him and
Jabri told him, this is the angels who
was in charge of the mountains.
If you want, he will
topple those 2 mountains over the hedge.
Said no.
I hope.
From their lowings,
from their backs,
if they didn't become Muslim, their children,
They will become Muslims.
Is this clear to the questioner?
Yes. Yes. Clear.
Let's take,
Rashid
from Holland. Rashid,
please unmute your mic.
Thank you very much,
I did actually ask the question about the
celebration of,
the birthday of the prophet
And,
the vase they used to give us is,
if I'm not mistaken, it's from Surat Eunice
Eunice verse 58,
which says
Well, I don't know.
And that is what they used to say.
I just wanted little clearance for that.
Is is it okay to use that to
to justify celebrating the,
the birthday?
And
if I'm allowed, I have just a little
extra question as well. A father who never
played with his kid where they were growing
up, he was very tough and harsh on
them. In fact, when the father comes back
home and they hear the sound of his
car, all of the kids, they actually run
inside of the room to sleep. And they
grew up like that.
They never know what the essence of life
is, and they grew up like that. And
now they grown up. Is he allowed in
Islam for those kids to sit their dad
down and ask him why he was so
tough and rough for them and why he
never allowed them to understand
the meaning
of what the old world is all about
because they never knew anything about what was
going on around until, you know,
they got grown up.
So thank you very much, sir.
Right.
Regarding the first part, there's no evidence in
the aya.
Yes. We rejoice. Who said we don't if,
we are we don't rejoice, we don't feel
happy.
K?
Because Allah sent
prophet Muhammad Every Muslim
is happy about that,
but it doesn't mean that you celebrate his
birthday.
And also they use that, okay, the prophet
fell and he fasted
Monday, and when he was out, he said
this is the day he was born.
Good.
So what did he do? He fasted. Who
tell who would who told you he cannot
fast on Monday?
Muslims didn't pass on Monday.
If that is,
the way you celebrate, good. Celebrate by fasting
every Monday and Thursday.
See,
the problem,
when
you are sucked by entirely
the beta and
you are saturated with beta,
your mind is full
of the laugh,
and your heart is full of this laugh
to this you are attached to this,
then by hook or crook you want to
find anything.
And they say a drowning person will clutch
at the straw.
What the straw will do for you? This
is what they are doing.
It's very simple.
Celebrating
the birthday of the prophet.
Is it a Imadah
or other
number 1? Is this a Imadah? Imadah has
to be
based on the evidence from
Hamilton. Habit.
Now
this thing, we are doing.
The
they considered
as khair.
Celebrating the birthday, they considered this is khair
and getting near to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
and they would be rewarded for this. This
is what they believe.
This said the prophet why didn't he tell
us about it?
Why didn't he tell the Sahaba
celebrate my birthday?
If they are doing it out of love,
what does Sahaba didn't do? The Sahaba didn't
love the prophet?
So we love the prophet more than the
So, sir,
that's it.
I can see what they are doing on
the,
on the moment and but to the issue
when you see.
This
is unbelievable.
So there's no evidence whatsoever
whatsoever.
No evidence at all.
And regarding
the,
the harshness of the father who was hard
with his children and,
sees of,
sometimes
fathers, they just
do
they tried
to bring their children in the same way
that their
parents brought them out.
And he's using the same technique.
That's what they are doing.
So his father was harsh with him, so
he is also harsh with his children.
Because that is his knowledge.
A lack
of knowledge
about how to bring the children and upbringing
and
and the,
the rights of the child in Islam and
all these things.
So the children now have grown up,
they should forget
their father and no need for
asking him and sort of interrogating him and
investigating to them, why did you do that?
He's still your father,
and he's still the to
the
the gate to paradise.
So be kind to your father,
and may Allah forgive him,
but be nice to your father.
This is the question.
Okay. Thanks a lot, sir.
Okay, Sheikh. The next question we have here
we're coming to the last of the questions.
The next question we have here is what
is the manners of salaam, Sheikh? What is
the manners of salaam?
A
salaam.
When we the solution,
it's a sala The Islamic greetings. Yes, Sheikh.
Greeting.
Yes, sir.
Salam
is
the the ruling of Salam is valued.
If,
you pass by a group, you have to
give the Salam.
Is one of the names of Allah. It
is a dua.
And the prophet
Shall I tell you about something?
If you do it, you will love each
other? That's your salam. Shred the salam. I'm
not you. Salam. So Abdullah used to enter
the market.
And he comes from the other side of
the market without buying, I said.
But they didn't do that. Where did you
come here? He said, just put this around.
If 2
Muslim working to the walking together, they are
separated
by a barrier, a tree, or a car,
or whatever, and then they meet again. They
give the salah.
When you enter your house, you give the
salah to your family.
If you
went outside, came back, give the salah.
You passed by people, did the salah.
So the this is and because this is
the the greeting was given to Adam
in the Jannah,
because when he sneezed,
he prayed a lot, and then he was
told, go
to that group of the ages.
And he went and greeted them, and they
said,
and this is the
greeting for you and your children.
K. So
the salaam
is the greeting of the Muslims,
but we are not allowed to
address or give the salam
to the non Muslims.
K.
So you don't say
because
that is a greeting, but it is also
dua.
That means you are going to be safe,
and you are going to be
delivered,
which is who say that they will be
safe and delivered?
So that's why the
do not,
they start and,
lead or salute the non Muslim. But if
they give the salah, then you say, oh,
if you hear
that they are saying a salah clearly.
So that's why when you go to the
graveyard and say,
it is a dua here. A dua, it's
not a greeting. It's a dua.
Is this clear to the questioner?
Yes. It's clear, Sheikh. And there's just one,
follow-up question to that, salaam question.
The person is asking if they can open
the salam and close the salam in the
same communication
themself.
Is that the right etiquette?
I didn't get it.
The
the the way the person, the questioner is
asking, a follow-up question, is if they are
communicating with somebody,
they would begin with a and
they will close it as well
in the same communication.
The conversation or
to say
at the end of the conversation to me?
Yeah. Yes. Yes. Yes. We can.
Yeah. That's that's what they were asking as
well. Follow-up question.
That it was the last
question for today,
and,
we've come to the end of today's session.
Sheikh, if you'd like to conclude, in general,
the feedback has been very positive.
And majority of them have stated that, it
is quite clear, very detailed,
and, they've understood well.
Those who didn't, I think some of them
wanted to had asked the question, which you
again answered very clearly.
And,
Sheikh, if you'd like to conclude today's session.
You see, my dear brothers and sisters, I
don't want anyone
to leave the class without understanding.
So please, if any point not clear,
ask. That's why one hour for q and
a.
It is your
right to understand everything. And as as you
see now,
the pace at which we are moving very
slow,
bit by bit.
So that's to make sure that you really
understand the text
and you digest it very well.
So this
my request, if any point
is not clear,
it is your right
to ask
for more clarification.
And
this course
is for establishing
and,
building
the strong foundation
so that you become a real strong part
of the students of knowledge.
So please
put some effort.
Take notes.
Listen to the talk again and again.
If after listening,
you
some issues or some points are not clear,
ask.
And then share what you learn with others.
May Allah
reward you immensely
for the efforts you are putting, for your
dedication, for your
attendance,
and may Allah
accept our deeds and your needs, and may
Allah
give
us the beneficial knowledge. I mean,
and may Allah preserve you and protect you
all, you and your families.
Then we meet again
and leave you in our lost company
company's
company
and
protection.
