AI: Transcript ©
Welcome to our weekly talks of Ursula Athalatha,
the 3 fundamental
principles
with our honorable Sheikh Sheikh Salima Al Amari.
Alhamdulillah, this is the 19th lesson.
We hope that everyone has benefited,
till date,
and inshallah, you are committed till the end.
Without any delay, I will pass the stage
to Sheikh Salem,
to begin the dots Insha'Allah.
Then once you
understand these three things,
so these are the most important,
elements
and points to be understood
because these are the three questions
that you will be asked in your grades.
So you should know who's your. It should
know what is your deal.
What is this deal? What is your?
Then
you
practice this.
That is the next step.
After learning
and knowing,
you start practicing,
putting
it into actions,
and that's what we covered
last session.
The last session, we covered the importance
of the
that with our there's no
There's no
So don't be influenced
by the wrong
the wrong belief
of the
those who
excluded
the action of the from the imam.
Then today,
after learning,
practicing,
then you start the
calling the people.
So these are
this is
this is the logical sequence.
Learning, knowing Allah,
knowing his profit,
knowing the deal
with proofs.
So learning comes first,
then practicing
the knowledge that you have earned.
Now
you call others
to this deal
because
you are qualified.
You are a learned person.
You are a practicing Muslim, practicing
your deen.
Now
share this
light.
Share this Hidayah
with others.
Take this guidance.
Take this beacon of light
to those who are in the dark.
A dark to a lady
calling to Allah's being,
calling to Allah. Now you call and invite.
Means to invite someone
for food, for
banquet.
So here,
we are inviting them, yes, to food, but
what type of food? It is spiritual food,
which is the more important than the material
food.
You invite the people
to
know how to feed their souls
and how to connect to Allah.
It's a kind of a sad.
How to be
in
constant communication with your Lord.
How to be attached to Allah
Azzawajal?
How this heart
can communicate with Allah.
Because
mankind,
every human being
needs
to connect to Allah
because we are
programmed
to turn to him
And your heart and your soul yearns
and cries
to go back to Allah.
But because you are some, they are lost.
They don't know the way out.
They want, but they don't know the way
out.
So it is the duty of the Muslims
to show them to show them the way
out
of this
misery in which
they are in.
The way out
is to connect to Allah,
to turn to your Creator,
to worship Him and Him alone.
So the Dawah, my dear brothers and sisters,
is what is the most important thing in
Islam.
Allah commanded his prophet
warn
your
kids and king,
your kindred,
your close relatives.
And he did.
He climbed the supper, and he called them.
And he addressed
Quraysh,
his people, his clan,
his tribe
with the different clans.
He told them,
if I tell you there is an army
heading towards Mecca to attack you, will you
believe me? They said, yes. We don't believe
you.
He said,
I'm my last messenger to
you. His uncle Abu Lahab replied, and he
has a
for this regard as
may you perish.
And, you know, the reply came from Allah.
The hands of
not you.
And he called
his close relatives,
his family members.
And he told them
clearly,
I will not be helpful. I will not
help you on the day of resurrection
if you don't work on your salvation.
Not your because you are close to me,
don't rely on that.
You have to sweat and work for your
own salvation.
Not count
on your lineage
and your closeness to me. No.
Oh, daughter of Mohammed,
dear Allah, I cannot do anything.
I cannot save you from Allah's punishment.
All my aunt and head director, all my
uncle,
you need to work.
You need to do righteous deeds.
Don't count because
you are my cousin, or because you are
my uncle, or because you are my daughter,
or you are because my aunt,
that you are going to journey just like
that without
worshiping Allah
and doing righteous deeds.
So calling to Allah's deen,
humanity
is in need, my dear brothers and sisters,
to know the way out,
to know the
right path and the right way of salvation
and how to connect to Allah
and how to come back to him.
So
Adawah
Elahi.
Adawah
to Ilaha.
Adawah
to Iladin in Islam. So calling to Allah's
deen,
calling to Allah, inviting
mankind to worship Allah.
Allah
says and Surah Chooses.
I am 108.
This is my
path. This is my way.
I invite to Allah
with insight,
with with
true knowledge,
understanding.
I,
Anna
Omer Tabani.
I and those who follow me.
Subhanallah.
Glory be to Allah. And I'm not one
of the polytheists.
So here,
Allah
made it very clear
and told his prophet to proclaim
and declare,
all say,
this is my way.
What is the way of the prophet? The
We Muslims
are machinery
nation.
Yes.
We need to raise the dust all over
the place,
spreading the deen of Allah.
But unfortunately,
many Muslims
are lazy,
and the Dua is not their concern.
One of the Dua, he went to Africa,
And you see the way was too long.
The roads are dirt roads
roads.
No asphalt.
Tiling
in the
middle of the Sahara Desert.
And we reach at night.
So when we reach, I felt,
oh, I made it.
She said even that. So I felt happy.
But he said that
feeling didn't last long.
The moment the day breaks,
I normally people in the desert, they have
dark skin
because of the heat.
I saw a woman
a woman
with bare skin among the rest of the
women.
So they're surprised.
I asked, they said, this is
a Christian
woman, a Christian lady.
She's been with us now for a long
time.
She let
you know, and she is here
doing well.
Of course, she's a missionary
calling
to see what's going on,
to I say shame on me.
And she has been there for years.
So my dear brothers and sisters,
our forefathers,
they didn't
stay in Mecca and Medina.
They left Arabia.
They left the 2 holy cities
because
they felt
the magnitude
of responsibility
and the burden
and the heaviness of that burden
on their shoulders.
Because the prophet
told them on the day of Arafat,
What you're going to say about me?
Have I conveyed the message to you? They
said, yes.
Said,
oh, Allah,
I delivered the message. You are my eyewitness.
You are my witness.
Had arrived.
That those who are present,
inform those who are absent.
The message was very clear to the Sahara,
and they left Arabia
taking this flight,
taking this Hidayah,
the guidance.
Jihad and Islam, my dear brothers and sisters,
is not the most important thing.
Dawah comes before the jihad.
Jihad is only
resorted
to when the Dawah cannot reach
and someone is blocking the way,
someone becoming a stumbling block
in front of the tower.
So it is a means you resort to
to remove any obstacles in the face of
the tower.
But the first objective is the Dua
invite inviting the people
to the Hidiah,
to this
final
revelation.
You have to be qualified,
you have to be knowledgeable,
You should be aware
about those whom you are going to invite.
You should be
equipped.
You don't go to a battlefield without
your own weapons
because you are going to be confronted
by opponents,
so he should be able
to explain the message.
That's why the prophet
when he was choosing, he knew
whom to choose from the dawah.
Because the
he knows the qualifications of his companions.
He knows them.
Zayd is an expert
in the paradigm,
the science of inheritance.
Is
a recital.
Is a scholar.
Is the sword of Allah.
So he knows, he knew, and he knows
the qualifications
of each companion
and their potentials.
So he sent Musaab
go to Medina.
You are the 1st ambassador for Islam. Go.
Musa'ab went to the Medina
after 1 year,
annual report
to the prophet,
I did not leave a single house in
Medina
without a Muslim member inside.
So he succeeded
in his mission.
Now he chose another one,
Muad.
And he said,
I love you,
and maybe you will not see me again.
That means I will die.
So I'm sending you to Yemen,
people of the scripture.
There are Jews and Christians,
learned men.
Not easy.
So prepare yourself.
And then he
gave him the agenda
to follow.
The first thing that you address
is to worship Allah alone, inviting them
to the as
of in the narration of
to
worship Allah alone.
If they accepted that, then inform them
that Allah imposed on them 5 prayers in
the day and the night. And they accept
that, the zakah
to be taken from the rich and to
be given to the poor in their country,
and fear the supplication
of the oppressed.
It will go up to Allah,
and Allah will raise it above the clouds
like a spark.
So why did he choose?
The most learned
one among you regarding issues
of lawful and unlawful
is.
That's why I said
he would be leading the scholars and the
scholars are behind him.
So the guy
should be qualified
because you represent Islam.
When you are ignorant,
learn.
Don't flex your muscles and go
and challenge
others
when you are not
qualified,
when you are not equipped.
K?
Maybe you know some of the guys, they
know the bible more than they know the
Quran.
And their,
invitees and their,
opponents,
okay.
You know the bible and you are quoting
from the bible. They will come and attack
you from another corner.
They attack you and they say, you see,
this what Allah said. This is what your
prophet said.
And they will quote the hadith that are
fabricated
and told the hadith a week
of some stories from the books of history,
and you don't know anything.
So first of all,
know your Islam
and have the busira.
And I'm not one of the and
that that should not be from the as
well.
That should cause the people to
the
top priority
in the dawah
to hate nothing because they're hate.
To hate first.
Call the people to the.
Hate. Call them to the believing of the
oneness of Allah.
Don't argue
about other issues
because once he accepted
the belief in Allah and the oneness of
Allah and the uniqueness of Allah and his
names and his attributes, everything will,
will follow
nationally and logically.
And remain focused in your Dawah.
And
who is talking Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala?
And who is whose words are better than
someone who calls others to Allah?
That's good and says, I am truly one
of those of.
There's no one.
His saying is better than the saying of
the one
who calls to Allah,
the Daria.
The one who teaches the.
Don't you know that the one who invites
and teaches the good?
Everything
plays well.
The whales in the ocean play for the
one who teaches the people,
the good, who guides them.
Their ants and their holes,
they
play
for
you.
There's no one
has
his statement is better than your statement or
your saying.
Woman
Who is better?
I was saying woman
Who is better?
Who is the statement or words
or saying
are better than the saying
of the one who calls to Allah?
Only?
Only?
Remember.
See.
And then he will tell you one thing.
When you are involved in the dawah, you
know what happens to you? You develop.
You individual, you develop.
Your iman builds
up. You reform your character.
You have bad habits.
I know you are talking to the people
about good manners.
And inside you,
you know,
so you start to reform yourself.
So,
my dear brothers and sisters, is a school.
School.
You learn and you develop and you reform
yourself
and you refine your character.
This is the of the.
So don't give up
and say,
I'm not perfect, you will, insha Allah, improve.
The other one they say, even the alcoholic,
they should give dawah.
Those who are drinking alcohol,
sitting
together,
they should give the hour to each other
and remind each other
by saying,
hey, guys.
Don't you think it is high time to
quit
alcohol?
We are getting old.
We are getting sick.
Let us leave it.
Let us repent to Allah.
Let us amend what remains.
We don't know
when Allah will invite us.
So that is that one. That is.
So
Dawa reforms the person.
So when you are
calling,
you do like just 8.
For the people that you will observe
your behavior,
your attitude.
So practice to the best of your ability
what you preach.
No one is perfect.
That's why I said,
when they asked him
that some scholars, they teach us
and tell us things,
but we know just that they are not
practicing certain things,
which they teach us to us, he said.
Take the fruit, lift the thorns. That's what
he said.
Pick the fruit and leave the thorns.
Accept the hat from him and leave his
shortcomings. He's a human being.
He is a human being. What we have
has told you is true.
Like a father is telling his son, don't
smoke, my son. Don't smoke. No. He smokes.
He knows what he's doing is wrong, but
he doesn't want his child to smoke.
He smoke. He has his own problem. He
is having this weakness,
but he doesn't want his son to smoke.
Not because he smokes the son should smoke.
No.
So try
to practice whatever you are telling the people.
And this, believe me, in the dower,
because you feel it inside, you will have
this inner struggle.
So
then you will
improve,
and you will get rid
of the bad habits
and the shortcomings.
But what we have to keep in mind,
my dear brothers and sisters,
we are not dealing with angels.
We are dealing with human beings.
So the guys,
the the
they're human beings like you,
and everyone has his own deficiencies,
his own points of weakness.
So
never
take someone
as a perfect person.
No.
No one like that.
Every human being,
as the the prophet said,
Every son of Adam
is liable to make a mistake.
And the best ones among those
who make mistakes are the ones who repent
immediately.
So always
Amal and Dawah.
I
am one of the Muslims. I am one
of those who submit to Allah
I'm one of the of the ones of
those
who believe in Allah
and bow to him,
pray to him,
worship him alone.
So this
is ayah 33 where
Allah
mentions
the virtue of the caller, the diarrhea.
Also, Allah says.
Let their eyes out of you, a group
of people,
inviting to all that is good, which is
al Islam,
in joining al Maroof,
what is known, and it is the monotheistic
beliefs,
and forbidden al Munkar,
shirk,
and all shameful deeds.
And it is they who are the successful.
So here Allah
And based on this ayah, Daulima deduced that
Dawah
is not for wine.
Not all the people will become scholars.
A group will become scholars.
You don't expect the whole ummah to become.
No.
Potion will be.
So let's get
out of you a group of people on
fighting.
So all that is good.
So those who will be
specialists,
leaders,
educating the people and the masses.
And when you read
in the biographies
of these
these scholars
of the past,
the
in particular,
you would
come to hear
that
in one of the circles of this, there
were 100,000
attendees,
and they counted them.
Guess the last figure.
And then when you see the students of
this
scholar,
they are handfuls.
So not all those who are attending
the circle of that were
scholars of hadith.
But
the masses, the Muslims,
yes, there is a Muhammed, there's teaching, there's
scholars because they like it, they attend the
circle.
But those sincere
and dedicated ones,
not all of them.
But the common man, because he is
he is there and he attends
such circle,
he gets now this culture.
He becomes familiar
with his deed.
Not details
and profound issues,
but what he requires
because he is in this environment.
So let's analyze how to be a group
of people inviting to all that is good
in joining Al Marus,
which is
and what is known by the what
is good
and forbidding what is evil.
And it is they who are the successful.
Imam Ibn Taym said
the following.
It said
as I said, did you know that inviting
people to worship Allah
alone
is the most honorable,
lofty, and virtuous status?
So the guy,
the one who
is activist,
one who is
participating in the tower, this is this task
or this job
is one of the most honorable,
lofty,
and virtuous
status.
And you will be,
in the next slide, in
a high rank in the Jannah.
Then he continued.
But such a status
cannot be achieved
without being equipped with their enemy,
with knowledge,
by which he calls others.
He calls others
by this end.
He's equipped.
He has the basile.
As the said,
the guy should know
the situation
of the invitee.
I'm going to call the people. That's for
example.
You are invited
to give a talk
in a locality, in a certain city,
or you are invited to another country.
Do your homework as a diary.
Study the culture
of that country.
What are the things
common in that country?
What are the bad and the wrong practices
in that country?
You should know
how in metro
the situation and the,
and the environment
in which you are
going
to
be,
and the situation
and the status and the state of the
invitees
whom you are going to address.
For example,
people, you are going to give them a
talk,
and they are totally
immersed
in in the.
Is it wise
to start talking in the beta
and talking
that you are
innovators
and and
and
or
you light the candle
there's total darkness
and total
ignorance,
and ignorance
is rampant
among them.
And the light of the sunnah is not
there.
What should you do?
Learn from the seerah of your prophet
and see
how he addressed the people.
You don't press on people's wound.
So light the candle.
Talk about
the prophet.
Every Muslim, when you talk about the prophet,
he will lend his ears to you,
because every Muslim loves the.
Talk about what is the meaning of Muhammad
What does it mean?
How can
I interpret my true love for my prophet?
So you
are sending the messages
into their minds.
That's food for thought,
which will
now
inside,
there will be
an inner struggle
between
what they are doing and what they are
hearing.
And you did not press the wounds,
but you just put lit the candle.
You are just giving the light.
You are just talking about
Muhammad,
the one who was.
The one whom the prophet
sent to bring the people out of the
darkness.
So you should know
how in Metro,
the one
whom you call.
And you should know how to call.
See, in the in the process of settlement,
the techniques, the
when he sees something wrong,
he gathers the Muslims
because his objective here
is to correct the mistake,
to correct the situation,
not to expose
the one
not to expose the one who made the
mistake. No.
To correct the mistake,
not exposing the one who committed that mistake.
That's why you come across many
of
the
and
you would hear him saying,
What about,
some who say these things?
Who are they?
He did he will not mention.
He will not mention.
Even if they are known to him. Because
the objective, the goal is to improve the
situation, to correct the situation.
So you should know how
to call,
and then you should know
where to start in your dollar.
A person
who doesn't pray,
and he is also doing other sins.
Which one I should address first? I will
address all of them,
but which one I should now
begin with?
The Surah?
The Surah?
Vasili.
Doesn't pray.
And you know the one who doesn't pray?
He doesn't pray.
And you
know, those brothers,
Okay?
They are doing good work,
and we should complement each other,
not criticizing each other.
No one is perfect,
but they're doing good work, and they are
reaching places hardly many of us
could reach your
courage. So
the man asked,
my brother doesn't pray and now
they came and he wants to go with
them.
She's gonna allow him. She said, of course,
let him go.
At least he will start
praying.
At least he will stop
praying.
He said what?
So you should know
your priorities
and which one to begin with and which
one to start with.
But such you say that Sheikh Al Makayim
said,
but
such status cannot be achieved without being
equipped with aim.
He
said,
You cannot be considered a scholar until
and unless
you know how to differentiate between 2 goods,
the 2 goods,
and 2 evils.
There are 2 good thing good things you
have to do
in front of you. Two options, and both
of them are good,
but you cannot have both of them. You
have to choose one of them.
You have to choose one of them.
Here, if you are a scholar,
you'll be able to see
which one has more reward than the other,
which one has more reward than the other.
So if you can
figure out which one of the 2 options
has more other, more reward, and you choose
it.
For example,
at the same time, there's a study circle
and there is a funeral janaza prayer.
Which one to choose?
To go for janaza
or to go to the study circle?
If you are a island, you will go
to the study circle.
You will choose that because
the reward there is more than attending the
janitor.
This is and and and the situation where
you cannot do both of them,
if there is a way where you can
attend the yanars and the study circuit, that
is what I'm fine. But in case there
is a conflict.
So Sheikh Islam is saying
to differentiate between 2 good things and 2
evils.
You have 2 evils and you have to
choose one of them. No other way.
So you have the aim, you'll be able
to distinguish
which evil is lesser than the other, which
one,
and you do it. You connect it.
And then he said in another place,
if there is a group of people traveling
and the highway robber, armed highway robber.
A gang
stopped the caravan, stopped this group of the
travelers,
and told them
I will not let you pass
without giving me this amount of money,
which is blind.
Give me money.
Lansom.
So he said,
if they get him
some money,
they will be delivered
and they will be saved and
also their property.
But if they refuse, he will kill them.
And he said if there is a man
among them
of knowledge
and he told them
this is haram.
Don't give him
that you're not listening to him because
he he's not a scholar.
He's ignorant. Fool.
Because the criminal will kill them all. Haram
will kill all of them.
So they should not listen to that,
man or that person.
They should give him because this is they
have to choose
the lesser
evil.
Lesser evil.
Take another example.
You are walking on the beach
and you saw a woman drowning
drowning,
and she is kind, thinking, she's
drowning.
Help. Help.
And she's not a Muslim.
And
she is not a Muslim. And she is
almost naked in her bikini.
And you know how to swim.
And in order to save her, you have
to touch her.
And you have to give her
the life case
resuscitation.
What we are going to do? Are you
going to make her drown and die?
Or you will jump and save her life?
Yes. That can happen. What is harm?
Giving harm,
resuscitation
is also harm,
but all this is nothing.
When compared to save a human
life, it is nothing.
So that's the the importance of the
So the, my dear brothers and sisters,
helps you
to choose in difficult situations.
And when there are conflict and there are
contradictions or there's no way
to do,
both of them or 2 the 2 I'll
take the 2 options. Only 1. So
the scholar is the one
who can distinguish
between 2 good deeds,
which one is has
has more reward,
and 2 evils, which one has lesser evil.
That's why,
you know, I've been saying when the cutters,
the Mongolian
attack
Damascus,
he closed the books
and he say now it's not the time
for the study circles.
It's not the time for the sword.
And he opened training camps
for the Muslims,
and he fought
the and defeated them.
And it was of Ramadan,
the battle of Sheikh.
And he was
walking
between
the arrays of the mujahideen
and the soldiers,
the rose,
eating,
and he was commanding them to break their
fast.
He said, break your fast.
You have the strength to fight your enemy.
And he was checking on
the
the
the in in the camp, the people. And
if they passed
by a group of the
cattle or the cattle,
and they were drinking alcohol.
Some
of,
of of those with Han happen
happen to be with Han, they said he
said to them, fear Allah,
stop drinking alcohol.
And Betania told him, leave them
leave them to drink alcohol.
Let them drink alcohol.
Alcohol
was made
halal because it stops the people
from
prayers,
from
concentration,
from
reflecting and,
and understand what they are saying when they
are standing before Allah.
But here, alcohol stops them from shedding the
blood of Muslims.
Leave them.
Because
if they
get up, they will kill you.
So let them blink.
So you should know
how to differentiate
between the two evils
and the two good things.
And here,
the students have maintained that the same as
saying,
but such a status
cannot be achieved without being equipped with knowledge
by which this by the knowledge and the
end,
he calls others.
Because with the end,
you will know
how to talk
and what to say and what not to
say,
and
you know how to prioritize
the
the things that you want to say in
the tower.
It is a prerequisite
to be qualified enough and all that you
deliver the message clearly and efficiently.
This is the what of Nefeyim said.
It is a sufficient
incentive for the caller to seek Mali first
to occupy a lofty status
in the hereafter.
This is a large bounty he bestows
upon whom
he will.
Also Allah said,
165.
So humanity should have no excuse before Allah
after the coming of the messengers,
and Allah is almighty is almighty,
all wise.
So Allah sent
Usur
messengers.
This is the role
of the messenger.
He is
giving
good
news to a target
and at the same time, warnings.
The same thing the guy.
The guy
used both techniques.
Good good news,
at the same time,
he wants that disease and then bite thieves.
And he sees
that they
are trespassing
and crossing the boundaries
of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
So the Dawah both
both
news,
the shawl and
Nadarah
on
it. Not always you are talking to them
about good things, Islam is and you are
fine and you are going to Jannah and
not always like that.
In the beginning, to soften their hearts
as a technique
and little by little. But now when they
are matured and they're grown up and they're
I mean, built up, no.
Now you have to
tell them the
hack, and they have to quit sinning.
And I said as I said, in the
beginning, yes, I had came down
to soften the heart.
Not addressing alcohol,
softening the heart.
So as a guy, you are beginning, you
are moved to a new city and a
new locality
and you are talking to the people,
work on their hearts.
Because the issue, my dear brothers and sisters,
is iman.
Once iman is there,
then it is easy
to accept
the instructions,
the do's and the don'ts.
Allah sent messengers
delivering good news and warnings.
Why?
So that no one will have any excuse.
So that no one will have any excuse
me about Allah.
No one will say, oh, Allah, I didn't
know. No.
I sent you my messages,
and they came to you.
As I was saying,
the Malaika
would,
will rebuke and reprimand
and
ridicule
the people on there going to hellfire.
No one that came to you? I said,
no. I don't.
The one that's came.
The onus came. The onus came to us.
So here, Allah
is saying the reason I sent the messengers
so that no one will have any excuse
before me on the day
We'll have Ujja
approved
before me, no one.
And the last
is
almighty,
can never be defeated,
and Hakim,
all wise.
Wise.
The meaning,
whoever chooses to be guided,
it's only for their own good.
And whoever chooses to stray,
it's only to their own loss.
No sole burden
no sole burden with sin
will bear the burden of another.
And we would never punish a people until
we have sent a messenger
to warn them.
Reflect on
this
eye.
Do you think
I was in need of us?
When you are guided or not guided,
it is for your own benefit.
Allah is not in need of any one
of us.
If all mankind is released, that will not
harm Allah the least.
But out of his own mercy,
he sent
the messengers,
and he loves people to address
Jannah. But he's not the need
of any one of us.
Whoever chooses to be guided, it
is only by the own god, for your
own good.
Your own good, Allah is not in need
of that.
Have you got straight?
You have no one.
You have no one. You have some. They
say,
I'm going to leave Islam.
Subhanallah.
Whom are you threatening?
You are going to have no one but
yourself.
You want to live a swap?
If you are in a Muslim country,
okay,
and you are
sane
and not brainwashed
or having any problems,
you'll be
But if you are a non Muslim country
and you want to leave Islam,
you will harm no one but yourself.
You got your help.
And whoever chooses to stray to go astray,
it's only to their own loss.
Well, I
tell
you no one is going to
bear the burden of another soul.
Everyone
will be held accountable for his own
deeds.
You want to be questioned about the deeds
of so and so,
Your own, yourself.
Then he said, concluded
And we would never punish
any people,
a people, until we have sent a messenger
to warn them.
If there are people no one that came
to them
and they die,
Allah gives them the chance.
In the second life,
and he
test them.
If they pass the test, they will go
to Jannah.
If they fail, they will go to *
because
Allah is just.
Is
just under.
Now see
what the Quran how the Quran teaches us
the technique of the and
how to deal with the invitee.
Allah sent Musa and Harun
to the head of Kufa,
the one who claimed that he is god.
So see
what Allah said
and what he instructed
his prophets.
Go both of you, Musa,
Moses, and Aaron
to pharaoh.
For he has truly transgressed
all bounds.
So go to him
and bite him
because he crossed the limits.
He's telling Musa and Harun,
speak to him, to the pharaoh
gently,
kindly,
softly,
leniently.
How about if you are giving and talking
to your own brothers and sisters in Islam?
They are far better than.
No way to compare that to.
So you invite them
and talk to them harshly?
Speak to him gently so perhaps
so speak to him gently
So perhaps he may be mindful of me
or fearful
of my punishment.
They both pleaded Moses and Harun,
Our lord,
we fear that he may be quick to
harm us
or act
tyrannically.
He's a tyrant.
We have a major thing.
So Allah said,
Allah, we assured them, have no fear.
I am with you hearing
and seeing
and
So this what Allah said is
from Aya
43246.
Allah sent Musa and Harun
to,
and he taught them how to address this
tyrant.
Also,
I have 45 to 46.
Yeah.
All
prophets,
we have sent you as a witness
and the deliverer of good news.
Because he is a witness who will be
a witness of us.
Deliverer of good news.
And the call after the way of Allah
by his command and the beacon of
light. So this was the mission of the
prophet
Also, Allah said in
He came
from
the farthest end of the city, a man
came rushing,
and he advised all my people, follow the
messengers.
Follow the messengers.
So the Dawah, my dear brothers and sisters
so this,
he came from the farthest end of the
city,
talking to his people,
inviting them, asking them to believe the messengers.
And, you know, if you read in Surat
Yacine,
what happened to him?
And he said, I wish
my people
knew what Allah did to me,
that he forgave me,
and he admitted me to the Jannah.
Also, Allah said, Subhanahu wa ta'ala,
insurah al Naida,
I 67.
Yeah. You have
So again here,
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
is mentioning
the mission of the prophet.
Oh, messenger,
convey everything revealed to you from your Lord.
Whatever is conveyed to you,
deliver it.
And the prophet he
delivered
whatever
Allah
inspired him and revealed to him.
So he did not hide anything. And
if you do not
convey the message, then you have not delivered
the message from the prophet, deliver
Allah's message.
Allah will certainly protect you from the people.
Indeed, Allah does not guide the people who
disbelieve.
So the prophet,
he delivered the message
completely.
That's why Imam Malik said,
anyone who says there's a good innovation with
he is accusing the prophet
that he did not
convey the message.
So that's why I there is
portion is missing, so I now try to
fill the gaps.
So the Allah is saying that you delivered
the message and need it.
Will come in a nice and Allah will
touch you.
And when this
aya aya came down, the prophet
told the guards, leave me now. Leave.
Allah will take care. Allah will protect me.
And then that journalist became a Muslim because
of this
when she read it.
Because she said,
any human being can cheat
others
but not himself.
So who no one asked him
to tell the gods to go.
But because he now
counts and Allah and Allah believes in what
Allah revealed that,
he said, okay.
Allah will protect me. No need for you
to to guard my house.
So the dua, my dear brothers and sisters,
is our business.
May Allah increase
our knowledge in the deen, and may Allah
make us
reformers,
good du'a, good examples.
And may Allah
accept our deeds and your deeds, and may
Allah
plead our iman and your iman,
and may Allah end our lives,
at the long,
life
in obeying him and doing righteous deeds
in a way that pleases and and makes
our last words.
And may
Allah keep us to remain on this beautiful
day
to meet him and he's pleased with all
of us. I mean, and may Allah reward
all of you, my dear brothers and sisters,
immensely
for your patience and
Shaykhana, may we begin Insha'Allah the question and
answers?
Insha'Allah.
Brothers and sisters,
as usual, if you have any
verbal questions you'd like to ask directly,
please raise your hand by pressing on participants
and raise hand.
And we will begin with
Ambrin
Niazi. Please unmute your mic.
For another
fantastic lecture. It was very beneficial and eye
opening.
My
question to you is in 2 parts.
My, the first question is,
is actually
saying Merry Christmas,
constitute ship.
And the second question is related to this
is
that many people that I know back home,
which is a con Muslim country,
they are they have been celebrating
celebrating Christmas, and they've been greeting each other
Merry Christmas.
So how should
we be making dawah to these people?
Christmas
has nothing to do with the birth of
Christ alaihis salaam. Muslims, they have to understand
this.
Christmas
is a feast of the pagans,
the Romans,
the hadans.
Had nothing to do
with
the birth of karish alaihis salam,
which many
ignorant Muslims and even oh, between double quotes,
the quotes and all that,
they think this is the birthday
of the of
This is Eid of the Pagans.
Feast of the Pagans.
So you are
celebrating
the Feast of the Pagans,
the idol worshipers.
King Constantine, when he became a Christian,
he brought many of these
things that he used to practice into Christianity.
This is number 1.
Number 2, a Christian
believes
any Christian, this is the belief of the
bulk of Christendom,
that Jesus Christ is God
or son of God.
He's one of the members of the trinity,
the father, the son, and the holy ghost.
So they are celebrating
the birth of the Arab, the Lord.
And you Muslims,
you celebrate the birth of your love?
You celebrate the birth? Allah is born?
Is Allah born?
Is Allah created?
Don't you read?
If he gets not nor is he begotten,
and then
you celebrate
the birth of the law?
So about this many Muslims, they are saying
these things out of ignorance.
Yeah. Because if you
know this and
you believe in it and you celebrate
it and
and knowing that, oh, this is this is
very dangerous.
Very dangerous.
And this
leads to apostasy,
leads to ridda, but
no Muslims. I don't think so there is
a Muslim
who believes.
But they said this is social event and
they, okay, there is, nothing because they tell
us aid Mubarak.
So this is out of courtesy.
No.
K.
We don't.
We don't reciprocate
the greeting because
this means that we agree with them.
So
celebrating Christmas is totally prohibited and stopped. It's
not allowed.
Not only Christmas, any
Eid or any feast of the Muslims,
Muslims should not.
SubhanAllah.
You see the
when he arrived in Medina,
and he found them
fasting
or celebrating Ashura, fasting aid,
asked,
why are you fasting, Hajjul?
Said this is the day Allah
delivered Musa,
save them from the pharaoh.
So the prophet,
he fasted Hajjul,
said indeed we are closer to Moses than
you.
But what did he say?
If I live until next year,
I will fast the Surah and the Hashulah,
the 9th 10th of
to be different from imitating
the Muslims
and the non Muslims.
So Muslims should not imitate
the non Muslims.
When the Whoever imitate a people is one
of them.
So you are not allowed to celebrate the
the feast and the
festivals and the aids
of
the oceans.
A man came to the prophet of a
settlement and said, I have vowed
made a vow, Nazem,
to,
to slaughter
a canal
in a place called Moana.
So the prophet asked him,
this place,
is there any idol in it?
Said
no. Was there any idol before?
Was there any aid of the aids of
the Muslims
before?
Muslims used to celebrate,
and by searching there,
you are reviving
that heritage?
He said no.
Then he told him, fulfill your number.
See, the prophet was there
a feast of the Muslims before?
Used to be conducted in Varanas?
Was there any idol?
So when he made sure
that
no, nothing of all this, he said, no,
there's no how.
You can't fulfill your method. So
celebrating the Christmas
is haram,
Muslim should fear Allah
and should not participate.
Yesterday, I was giving a talk,
and, one of the question that also the
Muslims,
they make the same
dinner like the Christians
and celebrate
on the Christmas
Eve
among the Muslims.
May Allah guide all the Muslims.
And may Allah
bring them to the haqq and to the
deen, Ameen.
And may Allah
give us the to
share the knowledge and to educate the people,
Ernie.
Is this clear to you?
Yes.
So those Muslims who are saying Merry Christmas
to others,
they should just stop it.
Okay. Brother Sadman, please unmute your mic.
This is for the session.
I have a question, regarding,
designing a children children's book.
You know, in many children books, for a
very little children,
there there are many,
photos, or illustrations of many animals or humans.
So,
is it a haram for, any person to
build or draw
for the children?
For educational purposes, they are allowed.
For educational purposes, they are allowed. And they
said school books, things these things are allowed.
Okay, Sheikh.
Alright. Let us take some written questions, we
have received.
The first question here is, if we are
fasting
and then and in the middle of our
fast, we get the period,
is the fast accepted or not?
No. That day
should be you should fast it today.
Compensate it and fast another day.
But if, for example,
you got a woman gets her period
after
after the
so that the pastor was correct because she
completed the day.
But if it is 1 minute or 1,
2 minutes
before the before the sun sets, she got
her period,
She has to make up another day.
Is this clear to the questioner?
Inshallah, it is clear, Sheikh. Next question.
Sheikh for the beneficial class.
Immensely in the both worlds, Amin.
Sheikh, I wanted to know what is the
end time of the Hajjid prayer?
The end time of the Hajjid
until before Hajjid.
That's before the other. That's the end of
the Hajjid.
So that the Hajjid begins after Risha until
Hajjid.
All this time for Hajjid.
The next question inshallah, assalamu alaikum Sheikh. DazakAllah
here for the beneficial knowledge. Sheikh, can you
explain what is Firasa Barakallahu Fik?
Firasa, I don't know how to say it.
It is
it is a gift from Allah
It's a life giving to the individual.
So by
and they say it can be learned.
Some of the they say this can be
learned.
Some people, they have this ability to by
looking at one's face and
seeing
facial expression. I don't know. I'm not an
expert in this. Or it is light from
Allah
that a person is not knowing the right
norm,
but the feeling he gets.
And most of the time you find this
that's what he got or what he
felt, it happens
as he expected.
And it happened to the righteous people, the
these things.
So this is something
blessing from Allah.
Next.
Next question.
It's a bit of a long one.
Wanted to arrange a mixed wedding, I e,
the men and women are not segregated.
The girl's reasoning is that most of the
women will be wearing hijab or at least
attired respectfully.
But if it is segregated,
there will be loud music and dancing by
the women which she doesn't like. Also, her
father wants to give a speech to attendees.
However,
the groom's father is adamant
that they must be segregated.
Otherwise, he refused to attend and will forbid
the mother
and all his siblings were from attending even
though his non Muslim cousins from his
mother's side are flying from abroad to attend
his wedding.
So is it right
for the father to be hard and refuse
to attend so he break the relationship with
the in laws
even before the wedding?
The father is right,
and everyone should,
accept his opinion and his stand, support him.
Because
you should not begin
your life
and this marital life of your son
by displeasing
Allah.
How
you rejoice
and be happy
on the wedding night
when Allah is angry with you?
Do you want Allah to bless the marriage
of your son
or to curse
it. So, please,
the first thing
we have to focus on
is how to make Allah happy
and how to avoid Allah's
anger,
not to bring upon ourselves Allah's anger.
In Islam,
women
should be separated from men,
and they can
sing
machines.
They can have their
time, enjoy themselves,
make the bride
happy,
sing for her.
Because the when
Aisha,
was going to the wedding of some of
the,
the
You
know the,
they like
entertainment.
So entertain the the the pride.
Make her feel happy. Sing for her.
She said,
oh, prophet of Allah, what should I say?
He told her say,
This is what the pastor said.
We have come to you. We have come
to you.
Salute us. We'll salute you. Greet us. We'll
greet you.
Without,
the plowing,
grain,
the wheat,
your daughters would not
gain weight and become fat.
Beautiful.
Charge and make it have fun. That is
allowed in Islam.
So we give the women privacy.
They can't beat the dove.
They can sing.
Even they can dance.
But, of course, not erotic dance,
but they can dance.
So that is allowed in Islam.
But to mix
men and women,
that's not allowed.
That's a shame
and you should not
start your marital life with making Allah displeased
with you and angry with you.
May Allah,
bind all of you,
to the to the straight half to the
right,
and
that is of the father
is upon,
and inshallah, Allah will bless the marriage
if you conduct it
according to what pleases Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
and voiding the halal.
Is this clear to you? It's a questioner.
Inshallah, it is clear, Sheikh, to the questioner.
JazakAllah here. We'll move to the next question.
Is Zakkad due on cooperative societies
or it's just on individuals?
In my country, when a child graduates from
the madrasa,
they usually
celebrate it in a
ceremony called
Walima tul Quran. Is this permissible?
There's 2 questions here, Sheikh.
Regarding the of,
the cooperative,
there is
in the income.
The money that they earn throughout the year.
And
this is what we call trade items.
The items that you have in stock
are over to each other, the trade items.
You evaluate them,
the fiscal year, the end of the year
because this is money from the shelves.
I'm giving this account,
which is the 1 500, sir.
Regarding the
making the or
celebration for someone who memorized the Quran.
There's nothing wrong with that,
and it is permissible. And this is a
way of showing your gratitude
towards Allah
who gave the and
the success to this child to mobilize the
So this is a way of expressing
your thankfulness
towards your creator.
So nothing wrong with that.
Is this clear to the question now?
Insha Allah, that is clear, Sheikh.
We will take this question that we've received.
For your beneficial lecture, Sheikh, my question is
if a father wants his daughter to marry
a person
who visits dolga,
graves of righteous people,
recite Fatihan Foods,
what should a daughter do in such situation?
The,
no one can force the girl.
This is in Islam. This is the right
of any girl.
No one can force her to marry someone
that he doesn't
want to,
to be married to.
That's.
And in the same way, the pastor said,
marry the one who has
was committed to her,
the one who got feeling, the one who
was religious,
the same thing, the right of the girl.
She was one who was religious, one who
was practicing, one who was committed
to the deed. So that's alright.
1 who is having
correct belief.
So if
the father-in-law is doing these things, shook things,
but his son is not
doing that, and he doesn't believe in that,
and he is
practicing the and calling to the, but that
is his father. What he can do?
And the girl
wants this boy
who's upon the and is
on the and
he is against shit,
then there's nothing wrong with that. But if
the boy is like his father,
don't
don't accept him. That's your right.
Is this clear to the questioner?
Inshallah, that is clear, Sheikh.
Let's take the question from Abu Diop now.
Assalamu alaikum, Sheikh.
For
the stars.
My question is
when we do Dawah and,
we invite
to,
most of the times, the
the the person we're inviting
to to Islam
will distract with the with the teachings.
The teachings, they they will say, oh, read
the bible, do this, and do that.
And then,
what should we do,
in this moment?
Would you mind repeating the question?
Yes.
When we do dawah to
to people
and we invite them to,
but
they themselves want to invite us to their
falsehood. They just say, to read the Bible
or read the Torah. I love this. Read
read
the our books.
And, in this moment, what should we do?
See
the the the guy.
First of all, he should know he's Islam.
Once you understand your deed,
then there's no harm
in knowing
the belief of the others.
And maybe sometimes they recommended, you know,
because you should know
the invitee
and what he has. That's why the prophet
told,
be
be ready.
So they're going to question you. They're going
to debate with you. So be ready. And
got him separated.
K?
So the should be really qualified.
But when you are doing that one individually,
you are calling a person, and that is
very effective way, Dawah,
1 to 1.
Start with the the,
with the the the,
the
tohuhi, inviting them to the tohuhi, to the
belief in Allah.
Do you believe in God? Yes. I believe
in God. What is your concept of God?
1 or 3? 3.
No?
That's not here.
If you are a qualified guy, tell them,
you know.
Within your bible says
that's why
if you want
to,
know
things about the bible tips,
just get the copy of Sheikh Ahmed Dida,
download it from the net.
The small booklet,
the combat combat
of the,
dower or something like that. The
combat kit, I think.
Really, it is very helpful.
Didn't it know what the bible says? See
that I have the verses
with Jesus
saying,
he's calling only to the oneness of God.
He never claimed Trinity.
He never said worship me.
If you felt there there is a need,
so you know
what to say.
But if the person said,
I accept this the concept of God
in Islam,
and that's what I believe inside me. Good.
That is a good start, and then you
go further.
How about,
other issues? We'll come to them, but let
us go systematic
1 by 1.
Okay? So you should not be
let the person
keep distracting you.
Then focus.
Let us finish this point first,
then the next.
That's why my dear brother insisted that dua
is an art.
And this what we are going to know
in the coming classes,
how to make dua and how to call.
Is this clear to you, Rafi?
No. No. No.
I believe this is the final question now.
For the benefit of Dars, I wanted to
ask,
for a medical student,
which knowledge should be given priority between learning
details of the basics of Islam and the
What
you should learn first, what is found for
you?
What you should learn first, what is found
for you?
What is obligatory
to know
your salah, the pillars of Islam?
So you know
the.
You know
the salah,
how to pray, and what are the
the
things that will make your salah invalid and
nullify your salah and the rulings be re
related to salah
and the fasting.
The Hajj, if you are going to Hajj,
you have to know.
And Zakat, if you have money, you should
know the ruling of Zakat.
So you should that is what comes first.
What comes first,
what is obligatory
because the
of the knowledge of seeking
the either from or from.
The obligations are 2 types.
From
this is an obligation upon each individual.
Each individual
is an obligation.
Obligatory by
for each one.
That's what you have to learn first,
you begin with.
What is communal
or publicifier
if it is done by some people,
the rest would be,
exempted
from being held accountable.
Okay?
So that's you will
you will not be questioned about these things.
So first of all, you begin with what
is obligatory for you.
Then you study what you like and what
you feel
you have
tendency
whether it is the Quran to become study
the Quran and, become a specialist or Hadith
or whatever.
But first of all, you understand.
You have to heed. You know the. You
know what is, what is not.
And you know the sunnah and you know
what is.
These are prerequisite. These are mandatory.
Anything else, optional.
Is this clear to the question?
Insha'Allah, Sheikh, it is clear.
That was our final question, Insha'Allah.
Sheikhuna, if you'd like to conclude today's.
May
Allah reward all of you my dear brothers
and sisters for your commitment, for your dedication,
and attending
these circles.
And
we will
continue and we will learn our deen together.
May
Allah
bless you all, your families,
protect you from all evils,
and may Allah keep us all remains steadfast
on this beautiful day. And may Allah guide
our to the and may Allah unite our
hearts
on the till we meet
in another class, I leave you in company
and protection.
And for everybody here inshallah, again, on the
chat section, I have posted Sheikh's YouTube channel
where all the recordings and videos are inshallah
if you have missed any.
