Sorry for being late.
No. No. No. No problem at all. If
you're ready, we we can begin inshallah. Yeah.
I'm ready.
Okay. Let's begin inshallah.
Welcome to our 18th lesson
of with
our honorable Sheikh.
I'll pass the mic and the screen to
the Sheikh, and the Sheikh can begin
inshallah.
Today is our weekly class,
Issues
of related to the.
Issues Islam addressed related
to the people before the.
And it should be known by now to
each one of you that,
it is
a state
of rebelliousness,
a state of rejection,
a state of mind when a person
rejects the divine guidance,
and
cuts himself from being connected
with the
regulation,
leading his own life
the way he likes,
following his own whims
and
desires. He runs his mundane affairs
as he wishes,
not according to what his creator
wants.
So this is Jahiliyyah
in a nutshell.
So if you're around your life,
separate and
totally
away
from
the,
the revelation,
the divine guidance, then you are living Jahili
in Jahiliya,
and you are leading a Jahiliya life.
This has to be
clear
in the mind of each one of us.
And man's art history,
either he was following
the divine guide
or rejecting
it. Nothing in between.
Either you
accept or you reject. Either you believe or
you discredit. So the people,
children of Adam, 2 categories,
believers,
disbelievers.
Those who accept it, guide us. Those who
reject it, guide us.
Disbelievers,
they can be different shades within that category.
But
what links them all,
this rejection
of
what the creator says.
So if
we look at our and see nowadays,
we'll see how far the people are
from their life are far away from the
divine guidance, from the
the, from the revelation,
from what the scriptures
conveyed
to
them
and contained,
they are
far away from that.
They're not abiding
by what
Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala, what they creator,
shut down
for their guidance,
for their
well-being,
for their prosperity,
for the happiness.
So
man was either following the guidance
or rejecting it.
If he is rejecting that guidance, then he
is following. He is in He is in
a state of ignorance, no doubt, to reject
the guidance that comes from your creator
who made you, your maker, who knows
everything about you.
I say not I'm not in need of
that guidance
and this divine
instructions.
I know my life better than anyone.
And this is the problem with man. Man
is ignorance and arrogance.
He is arrogant and ignorance
and ignorant.
So he's full of
arrogance and ignorance.
This is the nature of math. He thinks
he knows when he doesn't know.
Okay. So this is just at the top
of what we've been
discussing
in the previous sessions.
The main characteristics
of modern Jahiliyyah. Is there a Jahiliyyah nowadays?
The answer, absolutely. Yes.
And it is worse than the Jahiliyyah before.
Yes. There is no absolute Jahiliyyah
because of his.
So among the Muslims, you you will not
have
Yahiliya, total Yahiliya,
but there will be Yahiliya
in places
and some individuals
because there is 5
from the, say, of
standing firmly upon the.
But how about the?
What are they upon?
And the majority
of the children of Adam,
the majority of the inhabitants of Earth today
are disbelievers.
What are they upon?
Are they upon Iran?
Are they upon
the divine guidance that send down?
They are in
and see what the
what's happening to them,
and what's happening to their communities?
What's happening to their values,
to
morality,
ethics? What's hap is happening?
Things is downfall.
There's a decline. There's a decay in everything.
Every day, you hear some things that
you could not imagine even in your wild
dreams
that they are happening,
and people, they accept.
And if this is not Yahiliya, what do
you call it?
Imam?
Hidayah?
What do you call it?
And there are advocates
to spread such Yahilea.
And there
are supporters
and followers
to spread this among
mankind.
So the common denominator
among all different types of jahiliyah,
So our history
that don't they do not believe
all these different types do not believe.
They not have they believe in Allah
or the true belief
in Allah.
They don't believe in Allah, this true belief.
True belief in God, the creator,
it's not
there. Whether if you go before Islam,
among the
ancient nations, Romans,
the Greek,
Persians,
Egyptians,
the true
belief
is not there.
The concept
of obeying
and worshiping
the divine,
the creator
is not there.
If you study
the
the what the
Greek
believed in,
A lot of superstitions, a
lot of myths,
gold, goddesses.
Each god has a a particular function,
and the gods, they fight among themselves.
They're almost the same.
The Egyptians,
the pharaohs,
the Persians,
they believe there are 2 goals, goals for
the light, goals of the darkness.
Then if we come to the
people who claim they follow
and reveal the scripture, but they adulterated
that description.
For example, the the Christians,
they follow and believe in the
holy trinity,
God incarnate,
which is not the true belief.
If we read in the Old Testament,
supposed to be
the book for
the Torah,
You read their things.
They don't
reflect the true belief.
How they talk about the world?
That's it. Allah doesn't know.
Allah wrestles with Jacob.
That's what the Bible says.
God almighty, Jehovah, was wrestling with
with Jacob, and Jacob says, I will not
let you go until you bless me.
God said in the Torah in the old
testament, sorry, not the Torah.
The Torah doesn't have these things,
of the old testament.
That's when Adam ate from the tree,
and they call it the tree of knowledge.
God became afraid of Adam.
But now Adam is going to have knowledge
like God.
So he has to protect
the other tree of eternity.
God is afraid of one of his creatures
he created,
and then he has to send him down
and drive him out from the calendar.
So so what is the true belief? Tell
me.
What is it?
You read in the Old Testament, the daughters
of love, they slept with their own father.
*.
And they became pregnant.
So all types of they
don't believe in a lot. That's true belief.
This is very common
denomination between all types of.
So how does this shift mankind?
And from this root cause this is the
root cause.
This common feature,
which is coming among all types of your
area.
In man's way of thinking
behavior.
Because of you, as they say, junk in,
junk out.
If what you read is junk,
you would think junk.
If it is okay to
to to live your life the way you
like. So what do you think?
Man is selfish.
By nature, man is selfish.
So he wants yes. He thinks of his
own pleasure.
He so he fulfills his the flesh the
pleasures of the flesh, and that's it.
So all types of aberrations
are done
because there's no true belief
that stops the person
and tells the person, no.
There are red lines.
You cannot cross
except in Islam.
Islam,
there are limits,
boundaries
become that cross.
You try to test pass
such
boundaries and limits,
you come out of the slot.
So you have to stay within the limits,
within the boundaries, within the framework
of the divine teachings.
You have to abide by
the teachings of your creator, your lord, the
lord of the heavens and the
earth. So that's why
the whole
humanity
is in total darkness.
Except those who followed through guidance
and the true deed that is Islam.
I
have
to.
There
is a heavy task
and
duty,
and this shows us of this
of the
Muslims to take this light
and share it
and pull the people
from the dark
into the light of Islam
and
to present to them
the guidance.
So show them
their real role in life
and how
and how they should lead their life.
Then and only then,
they will have this peace of mind,
serenity,
the balance
between
the body and the soul
mundane life, mundane affairs,
and the next life.
So everything is balanced,
so you
enjoy
and have happy life
and prosperous one. This one the world and
the one to come.
It is natural
if someone's
belief got corrupted.
This will lead inevitably
to this state of
imbalance in all all walks of life,
all walks of life.
Look around you.
All walks of life.
You see this.
Politics,
economics,
family,
social
life.
What's happening to the
to the families?
The family, that
building unit of the community. What is happening
today?
Falling apart,
fragmenting.
If the family is falling apart or what
will happen to the society will fall apart,
the entire nation
will fall apart.
And those who
worship their whims and desires, they're happy about
that.
And they are targeting
that first
building block,
that
stone of which you place in your in
the corner.
They are removing it,
so the whole building will collapse.
The family.
Targeting the family.
First of all,
delay the marriage.
First of all,
just think of your careers.
So enjoy your life. A man,
they are mistresses. They are prostitutes.
Just take your mobile
and swipe.
Swipe. Okay.
Just
move with your finger,
and the woman will be
in few minutes with you.
Same thing. I'm a woman.
So no husband and wife.
No family.
And if they decide to get married very
late and they don't want to have children
And if they have children, the moment moment
the children, they reach a certain age,
leave my house.
Live in your own.
So where is
the what the family
bondage?
Where is that?
The the link, the ties, where are where
is it?
Where are the family ties?
What's happened to them?
All this
boils down
when you have
a wrong
and corrupted
belief.
And Islam
know. You know, there are red lies.
You know,
Zina, you cannot.
Is
haram.
Being unkind to your parents is You
have to take care of your parents. You
have to take care of your children. You
have to take care of your family.
But, unfortunately,
many Muslims, they do not feel. They do
not appreciate this,
the blessing of being Muslim
and what Islam has given us and provided
for us.
So if a person has
wrong belief, corrupted belief,
So what will stop him?
He's an animal.
So he will just lead his life the
way he likes.
So my dear brothers and sisters,
it's either Islam or Jahiliyyah.
Nothing in between.
Islam or Allah
says,
the Surah Al Araf, I have 54.
Indeed,
your lord is Allah,
who created
the heavens and the earth in 6 days.
Then he saw on the throne,
raised above the throne.
He makes the day and night overlap in
rapid succession.
He created the sun, the moon, the stars,
all subjected
by his command.
The creation
and the command
belong to him alone.
Blessed is Allah, note of all
words.
Note of all
words.
So now reflects
this beautiful
Ayah.
Verily, most certainly,
unquestionably,
your love,
your lord,
the one who nourishes you,
the one who develops you,
the one who may takes you from one
state to another state
is a
law.
The one who gives to you.
The one who has taken care of you
when you wear
a drop of despicable fluid,
similar fluid in your mother's womb. You are
just that drop of *.
He takes care of you.
He makes therapy and nourishing you a nurturing
you, developing you.
When you adjust in that microscopic
level,
then you grow
the different phases of your creation.
And he created for you the most suitable
environment in your mother's womb
because he knows you are helpless.
He knows you can't help yourself,
so he provided everything for you.
Food,
good medium,
protected,
surrounded
with fluid
to absorb any shock
so that this frail body would not be
harmed.
Then he protected you with 3 walls,
3 layers of protection.
The placenta,
the uterine wall,
and the belly.
The abdomen.
He said he waited you. He placed you
to make
the
the weakest part of you, which is the
front part
facing the back of the mother
to be protected
by her
back because that is a very strong
part of her body.
And your back
towards
the abdomen.
Why? Why he put you in that position
to protect you?
Because he's your your heart. He is your
lord.
He gave you this umbilical cord,
connect it to your mother.
Your mother eat the food, digest it, gives
it to you,
and you were helpless.
He was doing that to you.
Then when you come out,
you deny his existence and say, there is
no god.
You forgot?
The one who has taken care of you?
Indeed, you are ungrateful as I was saying.
How ungrateful
man is? I mean, are you kidding?
Don't
you
see
your creation?
What are you created from?
No
problem. That trouble, Simeon, and now you deny
my existence.
He provides everything for you.
He give you eyes.
Though you are in darkness beside your
mother's womb,
you don't need your eyes.
You don't need them to to use them.
Yeah.
But the one who created you knows that
you would need them when you come out
because you will come out.
You will come out from this
small place
to the vast place.
And when your mother started to have the
labor
contractions,
he
flipped you. He flipped you inside
and make your head downward
to come out.
The moment you come out,
the midwife is waiting with the scissors
to clip the umbilical cord.
You don't need it now
because he provided for you
the breast of your mother.
You were you were receiving only food through
one way. No. Then now you have 2.
2 two ways,
the breast of your mother, the cycle, which
I what's that which one you like?
And the milk is
the temperature of it is adjusted for you.
And he made your mother to breastfeed you
for 2 years.
And then to wean you
when
you were
or leave the milk. But now instead of
the milk, everything is is there for you.
All types of things, all types of food.
This is
this is
Allah is your load.
1 who created the heavens and the earth.
Who created this cosmos?
Who created
this
huge
universe,
which we can't
we cannot know and read
the end of it?
Who who created this?
Tell me.
Came from nothing? Nothing gives nothing.
Nothing gives nothing.
Developed by itself.
Do you accept when I tell you that
this cell
phone, the mobile phone,
Gus,
the sand
particles
get together,
form transistors,
then these
thousands of transistors
were arranged
in a way
to form the IC integrated
circuit.
And then the integrated circuit were circuits were
connected.
And then the microprocessor
also
particles
from the microprocessor
and memories and all all by themselves. They
are working like that.
Will you accept that?
Or you're telling me you were telling me
that,
something happened to me.
I'm crazy.
This what you're saying. This what the atheists
are saying.
Atheists are saying that.
Which
who's more complex?
The one who made this
iPhone or the
mobile phone
or the phone itself.
Definitely the one who made it.
And yet you tell me
there must be someone who made this
mobile
phone. Would you agree?
Anyone will agree? That's right.
But then you say, the one who made
it, no one made him.
No one made him?
If you enter your
sitting room or you if you were in
the sitting room
and you put your laptop in this place,
then you went outside and came and you
found it. It was on the table,
and you found your
laptop in the bedroom.
Are you going to say,
oh,
the mobile
phone decided to go to the bedroom
by itself?
Maybe to take a nap.
Or you will say,
who took my
my iPad or my laptop?
I left it in the sitting room. Who
took it to the bedroom?
Immediately, you will say someone who took it.
It will not say, oh, the mobile phone
or the
laptop or the iPad moved by itself
because it would remain there
forever
if no one moved it.
Don't you know the
one of the
the three laws of Isaac Newton
when he said that an object will remain
in that, but
in the its initial state as it's an
external force
affects it,
caused it to move or to stop.
If it is in motion, it will continue
in motion
until something stops it.
If it is static, it will remain static
unless there is an external
force, pushes it.
So
such people
who
think like that, they are, as Allah said,
Indeed, they are worse than the cattle because
they don't use their intelligence.
They don't use their
This is your this is your creator who
created the heavens and the earth.
In 6 days.
He could have created the heavens and the
earth in no time.
But the law is teaching us,
teaching mankind,
telling us,
if I am the creator
who could have created it in no time,
I created it in Shakespeare.
So don't be
always in a state of hastiness.
There are certain things in life and in
your life, in the course of life,
they need to go
through
phases. They need to go through time
in order to reach
the perfect level.
That's why
a child
stays in his mother for 9 months.
Allah could have created him just like that,
like Adam.
Allah created Adam just like that. Be and
you are, but why us
With 9 months, so Allah is teaching
us
teaching us that
this
and
you should not be always in this
hasty
state of hastiness
or haste.
He sit today,
our creator,
the heavens and the earth.
And he didn't feel fatigue and tired.
The Bible says,
God
felt tired on the 7th
day,
so he took a rest.
Allah said in the Quran,
He didn't feel fatigue or tired.
After he created the heavens and the earth,
he rose above his creation.
This
is the meaning of.
So Allah is above
because Allah created the 7 firmaments,
and he created the,
which includes
the 7 firmament,
then the,
which is
the greatest of his creation,
and the is above
the outside his creation.
He mixed the day and night of a
lot.
You see? He makes
the night to cover the day and the
day to cover the night.
They are moving like this.
The night is
you see?
Means
to cover.
That's why
if a woman covers her face, and that's
why in the Arab country, they say this
is
or veil
because you're cover.
So the night
covers the the night covers the day.
You are in day, and you will see
the night is approaching.
You can see the night is approaching.
It is moving
as if it is just you are going
to try for something,
and exactly that's what happens. This movement.
Night is approaching,
and the day is moving away,
giving place for the night to take over.
And this is our earth.
Here is night,
here is and here is day. And the
earth is moving like that.
It makes the day and night overlap
in private
succession.
Day and night. Day and night. Day and
night.
He created the sun,
and there are many suns.
Only we know the sun in our solar
system.
And there are so many,
and there are many galaxies where Shemsa,
it makes
the it created the sun, the moon,
the stars.
They are moving.
These
you, humongous,
great
celestial bodies
are moving in their orbits
with
accurate in their accurate positions,
with precise
speed,
all subjected
by his contract.
No errors. No mistakes.
No collision.
That's why we
we time we time our clocks
and tune our clocks. You know what?
With the celestial bodies.
Your clock is
synchronized with the atomic clock, and that is
also synchronized
with the celestial bodies.
You know,
the sun will rise at this time.
Do not delay. No.
On time, the sun will rise.
Will set on time.
No delay.
Because they are subjected
by his command.
They are under his control.
It's of a living.
The
one who is standing over his kingdom,
walking his kingdom,
the one in his kingdom, overseeing his
kingdom. Neither sleep
nor slumber.
He's seeing everything.
Everything
is an.
Everything is an.
2 things here.
And.
Creation. All are his.
All
are his.
The creation is his,
and the command is his.
Belong to him.
So we follow no one's command except his
command.
He says, do this, we do it. Don't
do that, we don't do it.
Because the command is his.
The command is not ours.
Man has to say I hear and I
obey.
Allah says something finished.
It's not befitting a believing man or or
a believing woman.
And Allah decree the matter.
That you should have an option.
You have no option
regarding Allah's command. Allah decided. It's over. Finish.
But you come to say, why Allah said
that? Hey.
Who's joking?
Do you know what is coming out of
your head?
Who are you to say
why Allah
why Allah said this? Who are you? You
forgot?
You forgot that he can finish you with
no time like that?
Because he's wise,
patient,
forbearing.
He gives you time. And if you repent,
he forgives you.
He forgives you.
You hear?
Why Allah said this?
It doesn't make sense to me.
I'm not convinced.
Hello? Hello? Hello?
What are you talking?
What are you talking?
Who are you
Just say,
doesn't make sense to me.
I'm not convinced.
And you
the same person who says this,
he doesn't just stick to what
to his philosophy or to his
criteria.
Because when he goes to the doctor
and the doctor tells him,
okay. This is the prescription. Take this medicine.
He doesn't argue with the doctor.
He doesn't say, I'm not convinced that this
is the right medicine for me.
He doesn't say that.
And if he
had the doctor say, oh, doctor, why this
medicine? The doctor will pull down his glasses.
Also, the doctors, the way glasses
look like he will stare at him like
that.
Sorry, doctor.
Or the doctor would say, are you a
doctor?
No.
Okay.
Shut up. Take the medicine.
Sorry, doctor. He will go to the pharmacist,
and he will take the medicine.
And the pharmacist will tell him this how
you follow, this how you take your medicine.
Okay? Make sure you take it on time.
Okay. I will, and he will die.
And now
when it comes to his creator,
the one who created the doctor,
the one who told the doctor
about your disease
and the one who
gave and
success
for to the doctor to diagnose your this
disease and prescribe for you the right medicine.
Now you are saying, I'm not convinced.
The one who heals you,
the one who removes your sickness,
and now you say I'm not convinced.
See
see
see the
the childish mentality
of the
of the children of Adam,
how they
think, those who
went astray.
So the creation is his creation.
No one created but Allah. You create nothing.
Nothing.
Human being cannot create.
Even with cloning, you are not creating when
you clone something.
You take the the cell from
Allah's creature,
and you plant it into that creature. You
didn't create anything.
Man creates nothing.
The creator is Allah.
So if the creation is his,
and the command is his.
It's Allah who says this is life, this
is wrong.
Alcohol is haram, finished.
Is haram, finished.
I won't decide it.
The one who created
you. And when you use your mind
and your rationale and you think deep,
you will come to know Allah.
Makes you discover the wisdom.
Oh, yes.
Alcohol is horrible.
Alcohol destroys the body.
That's why prohibited it for you.
When you drink alcohol, you become insane, and
you commit
crimes.
You can make accident.
He prohibited
because
if people commit,
then no one would know his father.
The genealogies
will be mixed
lineages
of the people you're lineage. You will not
know it. Who's your father?
My brother sent me
a a clip or a link
of this program
in a country
had been running for years,
and they invite men and women.
A woman will come,
and she will invite all those who slept
with her,
And they will conduct
DNA test
because she has a child. She wants to
know who's the father.
In one of these episodes,
a woman slept with 18 men,
a teen,
And to her surprise,
the test became negative.
None of the 18 was the father of
the child, another one.
And this is happening. This is the Jahiliya
in the countries,
many countries.
There are different percent percentages.
Children, 50%
and less than that, they don't know their
fathers.
So Islam said, no zina.
That's why he prohibited the zina.
So you know
your father, your grandfather.
You know your relatives.
He's my cousin. You know, family
family tree.
Doctor.
Will there be a family tree?
You'll be just like the animals.
Even the animals, the
the
the upper classes in animals, like horses and
this.
The owners,
they keep
maintaining
the
the genealogy
and the lineage of the horse or the
the tree of the horse.
Oh, this is a pure horse,
pure breed.
And you have when you want to buy
the horse, they will give you
file.
And this is the son of this, of
this, of this, of this, and you see
the tree that it is came from
2,
from this particular type of houses.
And now
what they want to do?
They want women to be to marry women,
men to marry men.
And what do you call this?
Is
this enough
this this happened only in the Jahiliyyah of
Luke,
at the time of Luft.
That was the Jahiliyyah.
That Jahiliyyah that Jahiliyyah life of the people
of Luft.
No?
They want to make it everywhere
From the k g one,
teach the children
to become gays and lesbians.
So a man married a man.
Imagine. A man marries a man.
Are they going to have children?
Will the *
reduce children,
carry
children, direct them, or the womb?
A woman with a woman. Will a woman
make a woman pregnant
and produce children?
So what will happen to the human rights?
What will happen to them?
This is to see that
humanity
is heading towards destruction
towards destruction.
Yes.
Is yours, and the command is yours.
It is not ours.
Whatever you tells us, we hear and obey,
and we trust in you.
We have trust in you,
and we know
whatever you tell us, it is for our
own benefit.
We are the ones who's going to reap
the benefit if we follow what you tell
us.
And you know and we do not know.
We do not know.
What knows?
You do not know.
You
do not know what is good for you.
You harm yourself.
So the creation is Allah. Allah is the
creator. The command is Allah.
The one who legislates.
The one who makes things lawful and unlawful.
This is halal and this is halal.
If you give yourself that authority, that life
to make things lawful and unlawful,
then you make yourself
appear
and equal to Allah,
and you become a law next to Allah.
And whoever legislates and makes laws for people,
makes things lawful and unlawful,
Against what Allah said, he is not a
Muslim.
He is not a Muslim.
He's a and
it is shift
and major shift.
And this is shift in the
legislation.
And this falls under the unity of, unity
of logic.
That's what Allah say.
I've taken the
and the
monks,
lords besides
Allah, through Jesus Christ, the son of Mary.
When said no hadith
objected when he heard this,
when the prophet read it, and hadith was
Christian before.
He said, we didn't worship the rabbis and
the monks.
He thought that
the ayah meant that they worshiped them or
bowed in front of them or
frustrated.
The prophet explained to him how they took
them as lords beside Allah
when they gave them the right to legislate,
to make things lawful and unlawful.
So he told him, didn't they make the
lawful and lawful and the unlawful lawful and
you followed?
Then he said, yes. That's how you worship
them.
That's how you
worship them.
So today,
if someone say we want to make alcohol
halal
and we will vote,
So whoever votes,
that takes him out of the swamp.
Because he's saying,
Khamal is halal when Allah says Khamal is
halal.
Someone says we want to make zina halal
and you accept.
Allah says zina is halal, and you're making
it making it halal. So you're not a
Muslim.
And you have taken this man or this
person or this body,
your lord.
Blessed is Allah.
Allah is full of blessing.
Allah's blessed,
and he's the source of all types of
blessings.
All types of blessings. So whatever comes from
the law is a blessing.
Is the is
the law, the cherished, sustainer
of all creation,
of all
worlds,
all the worlds.
Allah is their love. Allah is their Lord.
May Allah
keep us to remain steadfast on this beautiful
deed.
May
Allah increase our knowledge in the
in the day.
May Allah bless us with the beneficial knowledge.
May Allah forgive us all false mistakes
and ignorance.
May Allah unite our
and unite our hearts with help.
May Allah
reward all of you, my dear brothers and
sisters,
immensely
for your patience and attendance.
And, brothers and sisters, we will take some
question and answers now. And,
seems there are no questions yet. If you
have any, please send them in fast.
And I would advise that you can raise
your hands also
so we can take your verbal questions directly.
Assum Bazware,
Salamayi. Please unmute your mic.
Good evening.
Good evening.
Now now, sir, sir,
my concern,
it's about
the
the how it is called
attach
the the customs
or
people's
people's
situation.
Because
some people,
they say they celebrate,
like
like like, Mother's Day.
Not because
of not because the not because of
more than
people's people's custom.
And the state scored that to what extent
should one go I mean, to what to
to what extent should
one go
as
as far as that that issue is concerned.
To be honest, I didn't get the question.
I mean, my question is,
some people, for example, celebrate Mother's Day.
Birthday of what?
Mother's Day. Mother's Day.
They celebrate the Mother's Day. Okay.
And then when you talk to them,
they say that that that is called, that
people's
situation.
Okay. And that customs habits. Okay?
So my question is about what is that,
and to what to what extent should we
go,
to to to to to to to the
issue to that issue of Adaht?
Okay.
Because, no, this is not Adaht.
You see, this is
that's why the Muslim, they have to say,
we are
Muslims.
You see, when the,
Europeans
and the in general,
they are far away from the the deen.
And even the
what they have, the dean they have,
they are not following it.
So they
came with this idea.
We had to make a day for our
mother
to honor our mothers on one day.
So that's the day of the mother.
K?
And they celebrate that day
and give our gifts on that day.
Or
then they came up with another okay. How
about the father? We'll make a father day.
We say in to to to the non
Muslims,
our mothers, we celebrate them every day.
We love them. We respect them. We show
them respect and love every day. We don't
need to make a day for them.
All the year, all the days,
we are
showing our respect and love to our mothers,
and we are always there taking care of
our mothers.
And we don't
place and put our mothers in the
homeless
homes and
shelters.
They live with us. We take care of
them
because Islam teaches us that.
And Islam told us, if you want the,
it is there at the feet of your
mouth.
The same thing for our
father.
No.
Regarding regarding celebrating the birthday
birthday birthday birthday of my mother, birthday of
my father or
my child, etcetera,
this is a game.
It's not Islamic.
This is emulating
and imitating the disbelievers.
We are imitating them and following their footsteps.
And the made it clear in the hadith
when he said,
Whoever imitates people, he's one of them.
And when the other hadith has
So the prophet
he said,
his companions,
one day,
that you are going to follow
those who came before you,
span by span, cubit by cubit.
Even if they entered the lizard hole,
you would follow them,
the Sahaba
said. You mean the Jews and the Christians?
He said,
who else or whom else?
Yes. You will follow them.
So we are following
what the disbelievers are doing
and
starting celebrating that and making, it a beat
or
an event that every year you have to
commemorate and celebrate it.
So we don't have this birth date
in Islam. We don't celebrate that.
For a child,
Islam gave the
when the child is born. That's it.
And then the door is open. So now
okay. Anniversary
of our wedding.
Anniversary of this. Anniversary
of that.
Then the verse first anniversary of the demise
of so and so.
So this what the prophet said, you'll follow
the footsteps
of those who preceded
you.
So this doesn't fall under the
the
the or the customs of the people.
No?
These are related
to rituals and people they have and people
related to the belief of others pea other
people.
The kufar.
What is
related to the conventions or to the
traditions of the customs
is the norm. What is the normal practice
of the people?
The way they dress, the way they eat,
the way they they celebrate
their weddings,
if they are
as long as these things or such practices
fall within the firm work of the Sharia,
there's nothing halal,
this the is okay.
You can carry on practicing what you are
you were doing
over the years, and you received from 1
generation
passing it to the other.
K.
The way you eat, the way you you
celebrate your weddings, and
the way you dress as long as this
dress
is decent. Because there's nothing called Islamic dress.
Nothing.
So as long as the dress
is decent, covering
the body,
And for a woman, it is not attractive.
It's not transparent.
It is not revealing her body or describing
her body. That is
it met the criterion of the Sharia.
Is this clear to the you,
Yes.
Okay. Let's, move to the next question, which
we have here sent into us.
If a person repents from bida,
he was doing for years and rectifies his
affairs.
What will happen to his bidder? Will it
be turned into
Hasanat?
Allah
told us that
when someone's eventually
Allah
converts the to That is no one can
limit
Allah's generosity.
Next.
Next question. Sheikh, can you please explain to
to me the speech of Allah
in verse number 100 of Surah Al Maida?
What's the number?
100. Yes.
Allah
The meaning,
say or profit, good and evil are not
equal.
Are the good
and the evil equal? They're not.
Though maybe you may be dazzled or attracted
by the abundance
of evil,
this this
evil.
It is widespread,
so you might be tempted.
Okay?
But because it is so abandoned
because of it is abandoned.
So be mindful,
all believers,
all people of intellect,
all people of mind,
all people of reason.
So you may be successful.
So we should not be,
I mean,
deceived,
k,
by the spread of evil.
Because evil is widespread,
so it means it's okay and you
become influenced by it and follow that.
So the good, the
and
the
the evil,
they're not equal.
They're not.
Truthfulness
is not equal to lying.
Honesty is not equal to dishonesty.
Morality is not equal to immorality.
So to differ. Virtues are not equal to
vices. Vices.
Maybe you will be tempted
because this halib, this evil is widespread.
It is so abandoned.
No?
That's why?
Said,
you are the even if you are alone.
So don't be intimidated,
and don't feel okay. I'm alone.
Maybe I'm wrong.
The rest of the people are doing that.
You are the even
by yourself.
So stick to the.
You should not be influenced. You should not
be
affected or moved or,
deceived
by the abundance of evil
because now evil everywhere.
Don't you see today?
The mother is wearing and
her daughter walking next to her with this
stretch
and not cover. Don't you see that?
And if you ask the mother, she is
dressing decent, the mother.
She's saying, what we can do? This is
life. This is their time.
Everyone is doing that.
She's going out with her boyfriend.
This is their time.
So Allah's warning us.
Chabit will remain Chabit.
Evil will remain evil.
And right will remain right, and wrong will
remain wrong.
The wrong will never become right.
This is a question
rebuking
the people. Allah is rebuking
and blaming the people by posing this question.
They're not.
It should not be
dazzled by the abundance of evil.
The Noah said,
use your minds.
If you have minds,
think
and know
that evil is evil, and the
consequences of it are dreadful.
Perhaps you would be successful
if you refrain
from being deceived
by the
this dazzlement
or the dazzling
of the abundance
of people.
I hope this was clear to the question.
We'll go to the next question.
In India, there are many things happening against
Muslims like the hijab ban, halal meat ban,
and now demolishing
Muslim houses by quoting different reasons.
Here, many imams during Friday, Khutba, they are
provoking Muslims to get ready,
to make change. Is this right?
Muslims,
the biggest minority
in the world are in India. So the
Muslims, first of all, they have to come
and turn to Allah
Number 1. Number 2,
they have to be united.
They have to forget their own differences.
They should have one voice.
If they are one hand, then they can
make a change. Yes.
And they can silence the voice of those
extremists.
But if they as long as they remain
scattered and divided among themselves,
then they will be eaten one after the
other, just like
that story of the lion and the and
the 3 oxen.
Black ox, white ox, and
the
maybe a red one.
So the lion
came to the oxen and told them, you
know, that white ox, his color is attractive,
so he attracts the hunter. So let me
finish.
So he said, go ahead.
He acted.
Then the second one.
The remaining 2
came to one of them and said, you
know,
also that one is also his color is
attractive.
So the hunters,
let me finish him.
He finished it.
So
the last ones remains, again, he said, you
know, hang hang me. I have to eat.
You said, I know. I know. I know
it was coming to me. I know.
I know it was coming to me the
first day you
devoured and you
ate up
my brother, the first ox. I knew it
was a matter of time. So this is
what will happen.
So wake up,
turn to Allah, first of all, the Tawba.
Put your hands together. Unite.
Make your voice 1.
Then and only then
you will be able to
confront
such onslaught.
May Allah
protect you. May Allah unite your heart and,
and may Allah
save you from the evil
of those
evil doers.
Amen. Next.
Amen. We go to the next question, sir.
The next question is
for the wonderful session as well.
Where do we draw the line in using
number to determine moral basis,
or should this totally be avoided?
Number?
Using numbers?
Yeah.
What does that mean?
I'm not too sure.
If you can clarify the question,
slightly, please,
We go to the next question for now.
Assalamu alaikum, Sheikh. May Allah bless you and
all involved and give the best in both
worlds, army.
I plan to start selling jewelry from home
to have a source of income,
and I wanted to know how I have
to remove the zakat of the business
and if there is a minimum amount or
something,
like how we have a minimum value in
gold
that we have to each remove the zakat
from such a business.
So I think there are 2 questions here.
One question.
It's one question, Sheikh, mainly related to,
calculating zakat,
in the jewelry business.
Okay. The cut of the gold, you calculate
the if you are selling gold,
if it is
the ornament you wear,
of course,
for women, this is a different
I mean, controversial issue between scholars. Should a
woman gives the car upon the
the ornaments or the jewels that she wears,
the mother of Aisha and others, no.
But the strongest opinion, yes.
So if a woman has
85 grams of gold, she has to give
the zakah, which is 2.5%.
She has to take the
amount of gold to the jeweler
and to tell him to,
give her the price of the gold at
that day, selling price, not the buying price,
okay, according to the
the the grade of the
the cutout of the gold,
and he will calculate, and he has to
give this a car.
If he is doing business selling gold, same
thing. So he at the end of the
year, now gold is money he
has with him.
So he knows
what is the selling price
of this gold.
So he has to calculate
the amount of gold he has. If it
is richest, then. Of course, he's selling gold,
so it must be above the 85 grams
of gold, and he has to give the
2.5%.
I hope this is clear to
the question.
Inshallah, hopefully, it was clear. Sheikh, we go
to the next question.
Sheikh Dayan Surat Mur,
and humans
were created weak.
Does it refer to men and his desire
to woman only,
or it explains the whole mankind?
All kinds. Nature of man is weak.
Human being is weak. That is his nature.
He
he doesn't have. He doesn't even
his physique is weak. You see now he
is
heavy weight left up. Fever for 1.
Just 2 degrees, and he is shifting. None
is weak.
None is very weak.
May Allah
save us from the evil of ourselves. Ameen.
Ameen. We go to the next question, Sheikh.
Is it allowed for one to break his
Nawafil fasting if he's invited for a feast,
and is that counted if the sun has
reached midday?
No. He's the.
The prophet
one day, he came out and asked his
wife.
Do you have food?
So he was not intending to fast.
They said no. So he said, now I
am fasting.
But the so this hadith
shows that
even if you didn't intend to fast from
the night before, you can't fast
during the day as long as you didn't
eat.
Then he also
said if one is invited
and the host asked him to break his
fast
is to break his fast, and he should
not refuse to break his fast.
But if the the host said, okay. You
can't carry on fasting. That's well and fine.
Then you make dua for the, the guests,
the invitees.
But if the host said, break your fast
break your fast even if it is after
half of the day passed.
I hope this is clear to the question.
That is clear, Sheikh. And that was a
final question of tonight's session. If you'd like
to conclude,
May Allah bless you. Bless your family. Protect
you.
Protect your family. May Allah
keep us to remain in this beautiful deen.
May Allah
unite
unite
Allah
elevate your status
in this world and, again, not in name.
May Allah reward you for your
patience instead.
Until we meet, In the coming session, I
leave you in Allah's company for protection.
