Sheikh, we are ready inshallah.
Brothers and sisters,
and
welcome to our weekly of.
This is lesson number 42
delivered by our honorable Sheikh Salaman Amri. I'll
pass the mic and the screen to the
Sheikh, and Sheikh can begin can begin.
My
dear brothers and sisters in Islam, today is
our weekly class.
Masai'il and Jahiliya.
Issues of the Jahiliya
related to the Jahiliya.
And by now, you should know the meaning
of Jahiliya,
which means
a state of mind
by which
a person rejects the divine guidance.
So when you reject Allah's guidance
and Allah's revelation,
and you don't want to abide by his
laws,
and you want to lead your life
according to your whims and desires,
that is Jahiliya.
So
we are talking about
the types of the kufr,
major kufr that takes a person out of
Islam.
And the last tie we talked about and
will continue today is
the
the, issues related to it as well.
Because
last time we talked about
the kufr of
hypocrisy.
And today, we'll proceed and continue.
Sometimes,
you will come across
that the Muslim scholars and Muslim,
scholars of Aqidah, the Muslim
theologians,
they refer to the hypocrites
as Zanadipa.
Zanadipa.
The singular
of Zanadipa is Zindik
zendir.
And, basically, zendir is a castle is a
castle.
So
when one is called zendir, that means he
is a castle. He left Islam.
So the zen adipa,
of course, if in this terminology
or this term was used for,
some people
who showed that they believe and they follow
Allah's messengers
when the reality they concealed
the disbelief and enmity for Allah's messengers.
These are the,
and they will be in the lowest part
of the hellfire. So
and
are
used they can be used synonymously.
Is
and as well,
the one who
commits the
major
nifaq or major hypocrisy
because he pretends to be a Muslim, but
in reality, he's not.
And
the hypocrites are the most dangerous ones for
the Muslim.
That's why there is one surah in the
Quran.
Surah al Munafiqun.
There is a chapter in the Quran
addressing
this phenomenon.
So our last session,
I number 1.
So Allah says
about the moon.
So when the hypocrites come to you, oh
Mohammed.
Muhammad They say, we bear witness that you
are Allah's messenger.
Allah's messenger.
Allah
knows
that you are his messenger.
Allah
knows that you are his messenger.
And Allah testifies
and Allah testifies
that the hypocrites
are liars.
What does this mean?
Liars about what?
Liars about testifying
that
Muhammad
is Allah's Messenger
or liars because they pretend
that they are Muslims when they are not.
So Allah exposed their reality.
So when they testify
that
Muhammad
they are
not sincere about it.
Though he is,
and their mere utterance is correct. He is.
But did they believe in it? No.
They didn't.
Pretending,
aren't they?
So when they approach you, when when they
come to you,
the hypocrites come to you,
they say.
Okay? And they confirm, and they
emphasize
that we,
we
testify
with the witness.
You you, Muhammad
that you are
most certainly, you are
Allah's messenger.
Allah said,
Allah knows that you are his messenger,
but they are not honest.
They are not telling the truth.
What you don't know of Muhammad
that what they concealed in their hearts
is totally different
from what they disclosed.
As Allah testifies,
Most certainly, the hypocrites
are liars
like. In their in their
testimony. They are liars because they
their testimony
is not
coming from their heart.
It's only lip service.
They answered that by their tongues, but they
didn't believe in it.
Then
Allah said,
they have made the false oaths
as a
shield.
Hendering others from the way of Allah, evil
indeed,
is what they do.
So the reason
they pretend to be Muslims,
k,
is to
protect themselves.
K?
So that the Muslim,
will,
k,
Just to protect themselves
as a shield because the julna
is the shield.
Otherwise, they will not be able to function
within the Muslim
community.
They will not.
So they have to pretend that they are
Muslims.
And now they are with the Muslims.
So they sit with the Muslims. They hear
what the Muslims are.
They're planning and all that, and then they
report to their masters
because the hypocrites are actually
slaves for their masters,
agents.
K?
Traitors.
And you
you you see them.
You hear them.
Allah exposes them
And their and their sayings and and anything,
ways, Allah exposes them.
Then Allah said,
This is because they believed and then abandoned
faith.
Therefore, their hearts have been sealed
so they do not comprehend.
Because when
you say your shahada
and you utter the shahada,
you become a believer. You become a Muslim.
So now if someone comes to us and
he,
pronounce and,
declared his,
Islam,
we accept him as
one of us, our brother.
Maybe
he is hiding the kufur.
We don't know,
but we teach him as our father.
This is how what the Islam teaches us.
That's because they believe then abandon faith.
Allah sealed their heart. Therefore, Allah
sealed their hearts,
put heart seals on their hearts.
Left so they do not complain.
Also, Allah
says,
from I64
to 66.
By the way, you know what happened to
our brother
and to take.
So keep him in your players. Keep him
in your.
May Allah protect him from the evils
and save him. Amen.
Allah
says,
The hypocrites,
the the hypocrites
fear that the Surah
should be revealed about them.
Exposing what is in their hearts,
Say or
keep mocking.
Allah will definitely bring to life what you
fear.
They know.
He's
they know that,
and they know
this is the haqq.
Yet
they didn't accept it and believe
because
they were after
worldly benefits.
You know? The
the main reason,
as they mentioned in the books of Sira,
that the head of the hypocrites,
Abdul Lab ibn al Salud.
Before Islam,
the Aus and the Khazraj
agreed to
make him, appoint him as the king.
Even the crown was
made.
And now all that is vanished,
gone.
So it
is the jealousy,
hatred.
He's after worldly benefits.
He wanted to be a king.
So he lost this dunya and the akhirah.
So
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala,
he
tells us here
in this ayah,
the psyche,
the mindset,
the mentality,
the inner struggles
within the within
the hypocrites.
What is
what goes
inside the house and minds?
Because you see, my dear brothers and sister,
a hypocrite is have this dual personality
persona.
K?
He has to play
2 roles,
role of a Muslim, role of a.
How to he he cannot reconcile the 2
personalities.
He cannot.
So there is inner struggle inside.
Misery,
discomfort,
pain,
uncertainty,
lack of serenity,
and peace of mind.
You'll have peace of mind only
if you
worship Allah sincerely.
You are if you are looking for
the serenity, peace of mind, happiness,
worship Allah alone
because Islam
will liberate you,
the
monotheistic
creed.
And being a monotheist, you will become
a free person,
free man, free woman because
you are not a slave for any human
being
or any of Allah's creation.
You are a servant
of your creator
who deserve to be worshiped.
Anybody else is like you,
servant of
Allah. So you don't lower yourself or anyone.
You don't feel inferior to anyone. No.
But if you don't want to be a
servant of Allah, then you will be enslaved.
You'll become a real slave
because you'll be enslaved
by
your whims, your desires,
and you will have different objects to worship.
Money becomes your god, money.
Celebrity
becomes your god.
Fame becomes your god.
You are a slave,
worshipping many deities.
Many gods, small g.
Don't you see
football
players,
they say
team so and so,
both the the player so and so,
buying and selling.
Celebrity,
buying and selling.
You are a model,
okay,
for the fashion model.
K? Because
you have nice figure,
nice body.
So
they pay you for that.
But then you have to maintain that figure
so that when you are on the
walking in
the catwalk or
and people are
k. All the referees and all the judges
are
taking notes and
evaluate your movement, how graceful you are,
and so
you figure everything.
So you have to maintain that.
So you have to abide by a strict
diet
strict diet.
You cannot eat with everyone because you're going
to put on weight. Once you become,
you put on weight. You'll not be graceful
when you are walking.
And to them, you are
the cash cow,
the milking cow for them,
for the fashion industry. They fool you,
and they tell you you are a star.
Only
they are
utilizing
your body,
exploiting you.
So you are a slave.
You are a slave. You have to follow
whatever they tell you.
You can't
taste the cuisine, your favorite cuisine that your
mother makes. You can't
because this will
increase your weight. So you are safe.
You are safe.
You are running after celebrity,
fame. You are safe.
That is your God.
And whatever they want, you have to do.
So when
when can one become free?
Only one way,
to worship your creator alone.
That's how you will become free.
Otherwise, you are not free.
You are a slave.
Whether you accept it or not, you are
a slave.
So here, Allah
tells us
what the
or the hypocrites
go through.
K.
Many people,
okay, they just think about
about their looks, about how they look, and
what the people say. So
what's
their mind, especially women,
what their
mind
is what the people will say.
So she is working
all the time how to satisfy the people
and what the people will say about her
looks, and
so she will spend hours in front of
the mirror and with the beautician
and all that stuff.
K? So that you will look
nice
in order to be praised.
Don't you see what the women are doing?
May Allah guide them, Muslim women.
K.
They go and
play with them
with their bodies,
with the Allah's creation, what Allah has had,
given them.
They go for
changing their lips, their noses, their
doing surgical operation,
injecting
materials to their bodies to
look fatty,
all that stuff.
Why?
Because to have,
the looks is everything.
That's
it. Because if he is and she thinks
he is free, you're not free. You're a
slave
Because this is now your your idol you
worship.
Allah says here
telling us about the hypocrites.
They are
in state of caution.
They are cautious.
They are in state of fear.
They are afraid that may Allah send down
an ayah which will expose them.
So the hypocrites fear that Allah,
that the Surah
should be revealed about them.
So they're afraid
that
Allah
will expose us
and will send down a Surah
chapter
describing us,
exposing our plots and plants.
And soon as
So this will
expose them
and
reveal
what is in their house.
What
is in their house?
So Allah says,
Say, oh, Mohammed, to them, keep mocking.
So what does it mean?
Is this a green light?
Is this a green light?
Say,
keep mocking.
Is this a green light, permission from Allah
that they should keep mocking the,
or is it a threat from Allah?
It is a threat,
not permission.
Threat. Allah's threatening them.
So that's why you need to know
the patterns of speech in Arabic.
So this is a threat. Allah's threatening them.
Like, for example, if you
are disciplining a child,
and the child is impeach, and the child
is rebellious.
And you tell the child, just do it.
Do it. Go go and do it. Go
and do it.
What does it mean go and do it?
You have allowed the child to do it?
No.
You are threatening the child.
You are threatening the child to him. Do
it, and you'll see what will happen to
you.
K? So this is
the hadith. This is
a threat.
Keep mocking, and you will see what will
happen to you.
What you are what you are afraid of
and what you fear and what that
you don't want it to be disclosed
and revealed
and made known to the people.
Allah will
make it known to the people.
Allah will bring
to life what you fear.
Allah will bring it out.
Allah will bring it out.
Allah subhanahu
wa sahlam. Let
give the hypocrites
plot
and plan
to undermine the deen.
Allah will expose them.
Allah will expose
them.
You see,
the hypocrites,
they built a masjid. I mentioned this to
you called
Masjid.
So that now they can have
their own time. They can have
privacy or privacy.
They are out of sight.
So they built the masjid as to be
used as their
center or headquarter.
And they asked the prophet
to inaugurate
this masjid.
So they asked him to come and pay
in it. So the prophet
pays in that masjid,
then it will become a masjid, a known
masjid,
and people
will come and pay in it. And, of
course, by that, they meant to
distract
and stop the people from playing in the
Masjid of the pop
so the people, they can't pray in this
Masjid.
So that was their evil intention.
The prophet
was on a journey military expedition,
Raswa.
So he told them,
when in my return,
I will pray in this masjid
that you built.
Allah as the,
this was not known to the prophet.
Allah exposed them.
Allah made it known
what the
their agenda now is
exposed.
Their plot is aborted.
So now
I'll ask all this part.
Don't stand there and don't
stand in that.
Don't pray in it.
And the the prophet
sent some of the Sahaba, and they demolish
that masjid
masjid of Dira.
So Allah exposes
the.
Allah will bring it out.
Allah will definitely bring to light what you
fear.
Also, Allah
tells us
in
from now 64 to 66.
So Allah
This has happened during the battle of
Tawouk,
the
and
the military expedition of Tawouk.
So
at night,
the hypocrites
got together, and now they are cracking jokes
about the prophet
and the companions.
So
they
said,
The meaning, they said,
we've never seen
people who are voracious.
They eat a lot.
They like eating,
and they are coward in the battlefields.
They eat a lot,
and
they are coward
in facing
and confronting
the enemies in the battlefield.
We've never seen people
who are more ferocious
and more coward
in the than
Muhammad and his companions.
So they were
insulting
the prophet
and his companions and abusing them
that they are,
coward,
and they eat a lot, which in was
was not the case.
And,
they thought they were alone.
They thought they were alone, so
there was a Muslim there
who heard what they were saying. So
he rushed to the
and informed him.
Informed him about what they said.
Okay.
Now I'll send down the
the,
this eye.
The hypocrites,
they realize
that the news reached the about
what they said, so they had to contain
it.
Always remember remember
the.
Okay? That little
animal
that digs many holes. K? The rodent.
So there is always emergency exit,
so they have to
come now and apologize.
So the man came,
and
told the prophet,
we were all prophets of Allah. We didn't
mean anything
because only long journey, so we are
entertaining each other,
okay, and try to pass time,
but we didn't mean anything.
Allah
revealed to his prophet.
Follow
My dear brothers and sisters, remember
the
nullifiers
of Al Islam.
And among the 10 nullifiers of Al Islam
is mocking,
ridiculing
any aspect of the deen,
any part of the deen.
If you ridicule
any part of the deen,
mock the prophet or any messenger
or the books of Allah, anything,
any part of the deen,
then this will take you out of Islam.
Out.
And you become Catholic.
Major.
So be careful.
There are red lines.
When it comes to the deen,
red lines.
Don't let the shaitan,
fool you.
He clack joke about the deen.
This will take you out of Islam.
So Allah revealed
about their statement
that
the companion prophet and his companions
are
voracious.
They like eating,
voracious eaters,
and they are cowards. Allah revealed regarding that,
telling his prophet
about
what they will say
and what
should be they should be told,
If you question them, oh, Muhammad,
they were certainly saying, we were only talking
idly
or idly,
k,
and joking around.
We're just
having an idle talk
and joking around.
We didn't mean anything.
Abi lahi,
was it Allah?
You didn't find anything
to mock and ridicule and crack jokes about
except Allah?
How many people they crack jokes about Allah?
About his angels,
about his prophets, especially
non Muslims or the hypocrites?
Will Abi Lahi
Say, was it Allah?
His revelation?
You ridicule
Allah's revelations
and his messenger
that you ridiculed.
No excuse.
Let
Make no excuses.
You have lost faith.
You had become blasphemers.
Disbelievers
after your belief.
If we pardon and forgive the group of
you,
we will punish others for their wickedness.
Also, Allah says
60 to 61.
60 to 61.
If the hypocrites
if the hypocrites
and those with sickness in their house
and
rumor
mongers in Medina do not
desist,
We will certainly
incite you or profit against them,
and then they will not be your neighbors
there any longer.
So this
what
Allah says.
So this is a threat for the
hypocrites because
hypocrisy
is a disease.
So as the hypocrites
and those with those with sickness in their
hearts.
So one, my dear brothers and sisters,
should always keep checking his heart,
and purify it from these
ills, diseases.
Don't you know
if you if a Muslim
hates any part of the deen,
this will take him out of Islam.
If you hate something, you know it is
part of the deen and you hate it
and you know it is part of the
deen,
then
and the reason you hate it because it
is part of the deen,
then you are not a Muslim.
You're not a Muslim
because you hate something
which Allah revealed.
If, for example, a woman, she hates the
niqab
or the hijab,
she hates it.
Why Allah
imposed on us the hijab?
If you hate that
and you from the bottom of your heart
and you
bye
bye. You're not Muslim now.
You have to love the hijab.
You have to love it
because Allah imposed it.
You have to love it.
You should not really get
what Allah described
even if you are not reading hijab.
But inside your heart,
yes, my lord. I accept it.
Yes, my lord.
I am sinful.
Yes, my lord. I am wrong.
I know I have to wear it, but
my imam, my lord, is weak.
My lord, give me the strength
strengthen my imam, my lord,
so that I will wear it.
This
will not take you out of Islam by
not wear not wearing it. You are sinful,
but you are Muslim.
But if you are against it,
fighting the hijab,
You're an advocate.
Okay?
Calling others
not to wear it.
It's not part of the Sharia.
It's not part of Islam.
Then
you have left Islam. You are not Muslim.
You are.
You are.
You are an upstate.
No jokes
about liars.
No jokes.
Something
Allah said.
We hear and we obey.
We
hear and we obey.
So Allah says,
This is the mother of the disease of
Kuford.
And those murghif.
The murghif is the one who
spreads rumors.
K?
You
do
spreading rumors.
Rumor mongers.
And by the way, there are
in Medina.
There are hypocrites living in Medina.
There are.
And that is
why on the day,
the Dajjal
camped outside Medina because
the Dajjal, the antichrist,
the false messiah,
will try to enter Medina and Mecca,
angels
at all entrances
blocking.
So
he will
encamped outside Medina.
Then the Medina will shake,
shake.
All the hypocrites in Medina will come out
and follow
the antichrist,
the false messiah.
So there are there. And
rumor mongers.
So this is I was addressing
these categories
and warning them.
So don't be,
don't belong to any of these 3 categories,
3 types.
Do
not
spread
rumors.
It's enough to be a liar
that
you relate and you convey and you transmit
whatever you hear without very
verification
and without verifying
the news.
That's why I heard this immediately.
You spread it.
And nowadays,
because of the media, social media,
a lie will reach the end of the
world in no time,
which is a lie.
Wrong information. False information.
There are what they call the electronic flies,
websites.
Yes.
Their job is lying, lying, lying.
So verify.
Not every message you receive,
you forward it. No.
Verify.
Check.
Otherwise,
you see,
millions and
millions
of messages are going
around.
Publicated
hadith,
hadith, lies, everything's going on.
And the message will come to you again
and again and again.
So how to stop this?
That everyone should play his role.
I received the message.
I verify. I check.
Oh,
it's false.
Delete.
Delete. And send the message to the one
who forwarded to you.
Allah. Don't do this.
And ask him
to
notify and inform
those whom he send them
the message
that this information is not
correct, is wrong.
So we should not be part of those.
Mongifur, luma mongers.
Otherwise, the hadith
is clear.
You are a liar
because whatever you hear,
you start sharing it and telling the people
about it
when it is not true.
So this how Islam
teaches
its followers.
What's mean?
So all believers,
when a fasted, wicked person, evil doer,
evil individual
approaches you
with false information,
with the news,
either.
So
it's not trustworthy,
and he
tells you this piece of information
and use.
Verify it. This
is what Allah
teaches
us. Verify.
The ulema, they say,
a Muslim judge
or Qazi
should not judge before
seeing
the the other,
person
whom this one,
person a complained about person b,
so he cannot judge immediately
until he sees
person b.
Person a came
with his eye the ball of his eye
eyeball
in his hand and his palm
saying, oh,
judge.
So and so
removed my eye,
blocked my eye.
So
he removed my eye.
The ulama, they say, the judge has to
wait and to to to see
the other person.
Maybe
that one lost the two eyes,
lost the 2 of his eyes. So he
has you have to wait and see.
You have to verify.
And another and
to see the common, lest you
accuse people who are innocent.
You accuse people out of your ignorance because
of your ignorance.
Then you will regret when it is too
late.
K?
Because of what you had done.
So you need to verify
before you
convey
what reached you and what you heard.
We will certainly incite you,
oh, Muhammad
against them,
and then they will not be your neighbors
there any longer.
Then Allah said,
K.
Means what?
What's the meaning of?
Means he is
deprived
of Allah's mercy.
Is.
So Allah deprived him of his mercy.
Why?
Because he was arrogant.
Iblis was arrogant.
Allah
commanded the the angels, and he was with
them to prostrate before Adam.
Angels prostrated
in at least about
what kind of.
All the angels were saying it, but at
least say it now.
So it can.
And you say
to Allah,
Allah,
So in other words, he's telling Allah,
I am better than him than Adam. So
why do you,
command me
to process before
someone
who is
inferior to me
and superior to him?
I'm better than him.
So
he's arrogant.
He's rejecting Allah's command
because of his arrogance.
So he rejected Allah's command.
You created
me
from the fire,
and you created him from
the earth,
from mud.
So he rejected the divine command.
So that's why Allah,
first time,
deprived him
of his forgiveness
and of
his mercy
because he was arrogant,
and he rejected Allah's command.
The ulama, they say, Iblis disobeyed Allah, and
Adam disobeyed Allah.
Allah forgave Adam, and he did not forgive
the place.
Why?
Because they said
Adam's
sin,
k, or mistake he made
happened due to
ignorance
and forgetfulness.
This is
main two reasons.
He was ignorant
because he was naive,
innocent,
pure.
He's not aware that people lie. He didn't
know something called lying
is created in the agenda.
And now this,
the police, Shaytan,
approached him,
and he told him,
Oh, Adam, shall I lead you
or inform you?
I'll actually give us to call the tree
of eternity.
A tree or Adam, if you eat from
it, you are going to have eternal life.
And Adam
forgot
that Allah warned him,
so he forgot
the warning.
And now someone is telling him,
pretending that he is
he meant good for him, and he's giving
him
sincere advice, piece of advice.
So
he believed him.
Did he realize that you are mistaken?
He remarked that.
So Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, as you know,
he sent
Adam and the shaytan to the dunya
and Hawa'i.
So the Quran talks about
that
Adam was mistaken.
Adam forgot.
K.
The Quran didn't blame Eve
in the sense that, as the Bible says,
it is this woman
who told me to eat and touch the
apple. No. No.
It's Adam.
But
in Christianity, for example,
they are saying,
Eve is the source of evil,
the woman.
You will not believe that in the medieval
ages,
the churches,
the
clergymen, the
Christian theologians, they were discussing
the nature of Eve and woman in general.
Is a woman does a woman have a
soul,
or she is devil?
K? That is,
what they were discussing.
The Quran says, Adam came down with Eve
and
Allah forgave them. They repented, turned to Allah.
We were mistaken. Forgive us. He forgave them.
That's it.
And this is when
a person commits a sin and he knows
that he is wrong, Allah forgives him.
But if someone commits a sin
and behaves like Iblis,
Iblis rejected
Allah's command, then he's like Iblis.
I will not forgive him. He's a Catholic
or she's a Catholic.
K?
2 people drinking alcohol.
We asked them.
So the first one said,
Sheikh, believe me, it is just like the
fruit cocktail. It's nice. Have a sip
here. Have a sip.
It's nice.
It's just like water.
What is he saying?
He's saying it is halal.
He's saying hamar.
Alcohol is halal.
Allah is saying it is haram.
It's the mother of all evils,
Allah cursed the one who
who squeezes it.
The one who sells the the grapes. The
one who squeezes, the one who carries it,
the one who sell it, the one who
purchase it, the one who serve it. All
those are curse.
I know you are saying it was halal.
So this person who say
Hamal is just like water is not a
Muslim. He's a kafir.
Because Allah said it is haram and he's
saying it is halal.
The other ones who's drink those are drinking
alcohol.
The other one says, Sheikh, I know
I know it is haram.
They will curse the.
I know it is destroying me, destroying my
family,
make
for me. Are they the same? No. The
other one is a Muslim. He's a sinner.
The same thing to sister, not wearing hijab.
The first one said, who told you
Sheikh is part of the deed? I don't
believe in
it. I don't believe and
weapons
in I don't believe that.
Right? It doesn't make sense to me. Hello?
Hello?
Goodbye.
You left Islam.
The other one saying,
I know I have to wear it one
day, but my iman is weak.
So make dua for me. Ask Allah to
strengthen my iman.
Send me Allah. Send your iman.
He's a Muslim, the second one. First one
is kafirah because he is like Iblis.
He is like Iblis rejecting
rejecting
what Allah said.
So keep this in mind. So that's the
meaning of.
Means
You are chased away. You are deprived
of Allah's mercy.
So the hypocrites here
are cursed.
They deserve to be
cursed and to be condemned.
I never thought before.
Wherever they are, wherever they
are
peasant,
they would get themselves seized and killed
mercilessly,
relentlessly
wherever they are found,
wherever they are found.
So this is the kufr of the hypocrisy.
Allah save us from all types of the
disbelief
and all types of nifa.
May Allah purify our hearts
from the and the nifa.
May Allah
fill our hearts with his fear and iman
and taqwa,
And may Allah keep us to remain steadfast
in this
beautiful deed
until we breathe our loss and die upon
the and the iman.
May Allah
forgive us all the faults and mistakes and
ignorance.
May Allah
bless us with the beneficially
of righteous needs.
May Allah
unite our
and
unite our heart. How can the Allah bless
us with the beneficial knowledge of our just
needs?
And may Allah reward all of you, my
dear brothers and sisters,
immensely for your patience and attendance.
Brothers and sisters.
We will now start the question and answers
time. If you have questions, send them in,
please. And ideally,
if you can ask verbal questions, it would
be amazing.
We'll start with the written questions.
So the first question received,
Please explain the Hadith.
Do not help shaitan against him.
And the statement of Omar Ibn Khattar, help
me and do not help against me.
Yes. Shaitan.
Do not help the shaitan against your brother.
K.
And,
and this,
if you see the,
the background,
if I recall
that a Muslim
was
lashed,
k, because he
had alcohol or something like that.
So
some one of the Sahaba curse, he said,
doctor,
Do not help the shaitan against your brother.
So which means if a Muslim
commits a sin,
well, he is
committing sins.
So we should not help the shaitan
against
him.
So we should try to rescue him
and save him from the grip of the
shaitan.
K? That's why, my dear brothers and sisters,
in the dua,
When we are talking, the Dua is an
art.
Dua is an art.
And over the years, you will learn many
things when you are in the field of
Dua.
You learn the Hikma, wisdom.
You see, today,
many of the brothers,
are involved in the dawah, but they're still
young, so they lack the hikmah,
the wisdom.
They will learn it
by the by the year.
They will not learn from the books.
I'm sure
later on, they will be laughing at themselves.
Why?
Because now you are matured. You are wise.
So you will say, I shouldn't have said
that.
I should have said something else. I shouldn't
so Dawa is an art.
So you should know the technique, and you
should know
the one who's in front of you.
Someone who's sick.
The sinner
is a sick person.
He is in state of despair.
He or she lost hope.
So it's not wise to come
and talk to them
about what is there for the sinners,
about Jahannam,
about the hellfire,
about the grave,
all that.
So the person is already finished.
So
and you come and emphasize and confirm that
he is going to *.
There is no chance for him
to reform.
There is no chance for him or her
to come back to Allah.
And this show a person, Nadai, but Nadai
does something like this.
He shouldn't be
involved in the dawah at all
because he is not qualified.
See the prophet said,
Yes,
Give good news.
Don't pit put the people off.
No.
So this person
needs to know and hear
things that will give him hope.
Talk to him about Allah's
talk to him or how
how dear he is,
All the Muslims,
those who are sinners, and all of us
are sinners,
those who are totally
dipped into the mire of sinfulness,
they are
dear to Allah.
They are better in the sight of Allah
than the rest
of the kuffar,
the millions of the kuffar,
because this Muslim, man or woman,
he has this kaliba
that
in his heart.
So
tell him
that you are so dear to Allah.
Allah loves when you come back to him.
I I can
I can go go back? He will accept
me? Yes. He will.
Who told you he will not accept you?
Who told
you?
Who told you?
Allah accepted the one who killed 100
and forgave him.
Allah accepted the prostitute
who gave water to the thirsty dog. Who
told you they will not accept
Oh
my
servants.
Those who
trespass are the limits.
They were extravagant
in committing sins.
All red lines they crossed.
Yet Allah says,
despair not of Allah's mercy.
Certainly, most certainly, verily,
Allah forgives all the sins,
all the sins.
In
Most certainly, he is
the most forgiving,
the most merciful.
This how you
should approach
those who
had dispatched of Allah's mercy.
Not that you frighten them.
We need
when we worship Allah.
You worship Allah with hope,
with love. You love Allah.
Allah has to be loved, my dear brothers
and sisters.
Has to be loved
or met because he deserves to be loved.
He's the most kind
to us.
He's our love. He is the one who
nurtured
us, who developed us. He is the one
who took care of us, and he takes
care of us.
He's more merciful than our mothers.
He loves you.
What else do you want?
What else?
Bless you.
Give good news. Well, that's your nephew. Don't
put them up. Well, yes, you do. Make
things easy for the people,
and don't make things difficult for them as
long as the Sharia
permits that
within the Sharia.
K? Why you want to be like Abdullah
ibn Umar?
Always alzim and always take the
the the things that
need,
strong will.
Oh.
There is room.
They'll stay here.
That's why they said
I think of
who asked the,
Imam Malik
to write and, the book for the Hadith.
He said,
means made it make it easy.
And he said, try to avoid
the
tough stances of ibn Umar,
and the lenient and the most lenient,
stances of ibn Umar.
Try to be in between.
K?
Yes, sir.
Things are
halalahki, permissible in the sharia.
K?
So don't make
people's life
difficult.
So when the prophet
said
that means
don't
be a cause to
for your brother to
go further.
Okay,
and carry on
sinning.
You should do the opposite.
Bring him back
and help him
to get rid
of this weakness and,
which
because of weakness,
he commits such sins.
A Muslim no Muslim
commits a sin because he wants to sin.
No.
It is the shahua, the desire
of a kamsan. That's it.
Nothing more than that.
K?
The Sahabi, one of the Sahaba,
he was alcoholic.
And many times, the prophet, salallahu alaihi wa
sallam, left him.
And
one day, one of the Sahaba cursed him.
He's rushed
and he's brought to be rushed.
The prophet goes to very end of this.
He says,
Yes. This is testimony
from the prophet.
Yes.
Verily, most certainly,
this person,
this alcoholic,
he loves Allah,
and he loves his messenger.
Yes?
Yes?
What do you think?
Yes. He loves Islam. He loves his messenger.
And guess what?
And he is ready to die to defend
his messenger,
this alcoholic.
One of the Dua,
he was alcoholic.
And he was drinking alcohol in the bar,
in the pub,
and non Muslims with him drinking.
Arabs.
So one of them said,
if Mohammed is present with us, he will,
have a seat.
He will drink with us.
Guess what?
Oh, he went mad, this Muslim.
He
removed,
pushed the table,
and jumped over him
to kill him.
And he repented.
And he was a one he's one of
the dua
of the Hakwar.
In
the YouTube,
Sheikh Al Raifi
think it was in Germany. I think in
Germany.
And,
the brothers in front of him,
be it their faces,
and
the one who introduces the sheikh,
So he told the Sheikh, you don't you
don't know the brothers.
They had
before. Okay? They were sinners.
They were alcoholic. They were
they were
in nice clubs.
He said, we
worked on them, and Allah moved them.
So the Muslim needs someone to reach and
to pull him.
He is so he's he's a piece of
diamond
as said.
But this piece of diamond is in a
downhill.
And the dirt needs to be picked up,
washed, and it will polish, and it will
shine again.
So here,
the prophet
said, do not help the shaitan against your
brother.
Pull your brother.
He needs
warmth.
He's he needs a shoulder to cry m.
Embrace him. Embrace
him
and pull him. He says,
Many people, because of their ignorance. When our
brother
Andrew Tate, he became a Muslim. How many
Muslims?
They went against that
and doubting his as a a sign of
love.
And they say and they are starting mentioning
things he did in the past. What is
wrong with you?
You don't know your Islam? You don't know
the seerah?
How were the Sahaba?
Sahaba, they were alcoholic
because alcohol in in the life of the
Arabs was just like coffee. Coffee.
Alcohol is nothing.
In Makkah,
the prostitutes
in Mecca,
they have
red flags.
No.
Like
in modern time,
red light district.
You want prostitutes?
Go. See the flag?
That was there in Mecca.
Leave alone that they were idol worshippers.
That's before Islam.
When they become Muslim,
they become different people.
Sayedna
amr bin al Haas of the Allah haan.
When he came to
say his kalimat, the shahada, to become a
Muslim,
and
he
extended his hand to shake hand with the
prophet,
k, and to announce his shahada.
Then he pulls back his hand,
said, what happened,
Hamid?
Why you pulled back your hand?
He said, oh, prophet of Allah, I want
to make a condition.
I want to stimulate.
I'll become a Muslim in a condition
that Allah
forgives for me all my sins. If Allah
is going to forgive me all my sins,
I'll become a Muslim.
The
prophet told him,
Oh, Hamid, didn't you know that Islam wipes
and watches away
all the sins
of the past
all the sins of the past?
So someone,
that is past. Finish.
Bury it.
And Allah will not hold you accountable for
it.
Even the shirk Allah gives, even the shirk.
So the Muslim is so dear to Allah.
So don't be.
And a lie with the shaitan
or a helping hand with the shaitan against
your brother. Never do that.
And regarding what said, Omar said,
Or help me and do not help others
against me. Yes. Help me against my.
We need Allah's help to overcome our weaknesses,
to overcome
our
desires,
to overcome,
our temptations.
We need Allah's help.
And don't have others against us.
Maybe
I managed
to explain
to the satisfaction of the questioner. I hope
it is clear to the questioner.
If it is not clear, you can ask
for more clarification.
Next.
It was clear, Sheikh. It was very detailed.
It was clear.
We go to the next question.
The next question is, is it permissible to
pray in the dev
deviant * masajid?
Are they Muslims or?
If you consider them
and be careful,
they're not.
You are.
So as long as they are Muslims, yes,
you can pray.
You pray behind any Muslim.
He's an innovator.
Yes. The is correct.
Especially if it is the only masjid in
your area.
Out of the masjid,
people
following.
Nobody has no innovations or nothing.
Then, yes, go to that Masjid.
But it's the only Masjid.
And
this imam or the people in this Masjid,
they are practicing,
etcetera. As long as it is not shirk,
major shirk,
which takes one out of the fault of
Islam, you can play.
I hope this is clear to the question
now.
Next.
The next question,
A 9 year old boy
who goes madrasa would like to know if
Kitab ul Quran
falls down,
shall we say and
kiss
the hook?
Yeah. Saying
And if you kissed it out of respect,
they said,
Sayedna,
Ekrima
of the Allah, and he would kiss the
Quran, and you said, this is Kalam Rabii.
This is the speech of my love.
K?
So there's
nothing with that. And this is what the
factual about the this, what is
said by the Sheikh Bilbao.
Next.
Next question, Sheikh.
A sister is having a boyfriend who she
fears to hurt
when she leaves him. What can you give
to such a sister?
You are worried about hate hurting his feelings,
but you are not worried about Allah's anger.
You're not worried that if you die right
now,
which you don't want
to die in such case, in such situation.
So my advice for the sister,
repent
and quit immediately.
Don't think
about his feelings
because
I hope
you haven't committed.
You know what I mean?
But if you continue,
you will
cry day and night,
and you will regret.
Because any man,
when he is with a woman,
what he has in mind is to
have her in bed,
and you will lose
the virginity.
So listen to me, my dear sisters.
Never ever trust men,
boys.
K?
Oh, our love is platonic.
Nothing called platonic.
K.
It will end up in the bed.
Zena.
Then he will just kick her,
the third of her,
though he gave her many promises.
I will marry you.
Just let us know each other.
That's how he pulls the boys. They pull
the girl's
legs.
He's pulling your leg.
K?
So
quit immediately.
Repent to Allah
and
remove him from your mind
and kiss goodbye to such relation.
And he is not your cup of tea.
He's not going to marry you.
He would ruin your life,
and then you will regret throughout your life.
This is my advice for all the girls.
Don't sit with boys.
Lower your gaze,
and don't mingle with them.
Be official.
Be official all the time.
Don't give a man any chance.
Because if you are nice,
k, smiling,
talking,
oh, you give him hope.
So now he is devising his,
his techniques and
how how how how what I should do.
And he put he puts a plan.
So if you are just like that, straight,
very efficient,
all the boys will say, oh, you cannot
talk to her. No way.
K?
She doesn't look at you. She doesn't talk
to you. Anyone? Shut
up. And guess what?
Any boy, all the naughty boys and
men,
especially the teenagers
and naughty boys.
Now when,
okay, he wants to get married,
whom you will think of? You?
The one who is,
easy going?
Always with the boys?
That will never be there in his mind.
He will come to his mother and say,
mom,
yes.
What do you want?
Mom, I need your help.
What do you want?
I want to get married.
So what?
There are many girls,
and you know them.
No, ma'am.
I don't want any one of them.
I want you, ma'am,
to choose for me,
girl,
practicing,
K.
This is the one I can trust,
and I want her to be the mother
of my children.
No boy will think that he wants his
the mother of his children one of those
girls. No one.
This is the reality.
So this is my advice for all the
girls.
Be careful.
Be careful. Be careful.
May Allah preserve you and protect you,
And may Allah
bless you with pious and righteous husbands.
I mean,
I hope this is clear to the question.
We go to the next question. And the
next question is, my Khale's husband argues about
Islam,
and his daughters do the same. I don't
visit my auntie a lot, but I visit
my mom.
She wants me to visit her.
What should I do? And I warn about
this to my sisters too, but they don't
know Islam a lot.
How to keep mom and sisters from this
fitna?
Would you mind repeating the question?
Sure.
My Khala's husband
argues about Islam.
My what?
Khala.
Khala's husband. Okay. Yeah.
Argues about Islam,
and his daughters do the same thing.
So they are loose about Islam. They are
not practicing Muslims. Right? Yes. Correct. Okay.
I don't visit my auntie
a lot, but I visit my mother.
She wants me to visit
her.
What should I do?
She the mother wants her daughter to visit
Visit the. Yeah. Her father to her auntie.
Yeah.
And I warn my sisters about this,
but they don't know Islam a lot too.
How to keep mom and sisters away from
this fitna?
I don't know. What do you mean they
are have they are loose about Islam? I
don't know about that.
I mean I mean, are you saying that
they are not practicing Islam
in the sense that the and
free mixing and things like that, like
most of the Muslims?
Or you mean that they commit sins and
they cross the red lines, and
if you visit them, you might be influenced
and they are afraid you might lose your
deed and or get influenced and affected. I
don't know what you mean.
So if
you fear that you will be harmed
and your deed will be affected
by paying the visit
to your aunt because
her husband
and her daughter or his
okay. They they are there.
So try to see and pay a visit
to your aunt. For example, you ask your
mother to invite
her sister,
and then you can see her.
Or you visit her when she is alone,
and nobody is there. So you have to,
think about it and plan it. Or in
worst case, you keep in contact with her
by
talking to her, calling
her through messages, etcetera.
So as a rule of thumb, when this
comes to relatives, if we feel
that
our deed is going to be affected,
then we don't pay them a visit, but
we don't cut the
the the ties of the wounds. K. And
we don't sever the ties.
We keep in contact, sending them reminders.
Okay.
Calling them.
K. Making dua for them. And may Allah
gives give them.
I hope this is clear to the questioner.
Shall light is clear, Sheikh. We go to
the next question.
My friend has family issues and is considering
divorce.
And
when upset, she is upset.
She visits me, and she tells
me about her in laws and husband's wrongdoing.
And I encourage her to be a good
good and patient.
And
now she's over it.
My question is,
am I sinful for listening to her wrongdoing
of Islam as
he repeats her pain, and I advised her,
don't do it.
It is backbiting.
At first, it's not backbiting.
When someone comes
seeking advice,
that's not backbiting.
I don't want now to talk about
the cases that are exempted and not considered
to be backbiting.
So it's not backbiting. It's not.
Just she's your friend. She comes. She needs
to vent.
He needs to a shoulder
to cry on. And now I'll give this
piece of advice to my brothers.
Men, they have to understand this.
Women, they need to talk.
Your wife needs to talk,
so you need to give her time when
you come
home.
You sit with her. How was your day,
darling? How's everything?
And now she will start
venting,
yeah, flirting, bringing things.
Let her do that.
Then she feels,
what a relief.
Thank you.
She's good.
Don't make her bottle it. You'll keep her
bottle it up.
She will explode one day.
No.
And
our problem as men, we are not
good listeners.
So excuse us for that. Forgive us, my
dear sisters.
Men are not good listeners.
You're talking to him, and he's not listening.
Identify.
Here's the yes. Yes. What did I say?
Uh-huh.
So we need to develop,
this quality of being good listener.
That helps her.
That's why the prophet
The prophet
he hated staying awake after Isha except
chatting with his wife,
To chat with your wife. To sit with
her.
Give her time.
I mentioned many times, and I recommended
this book,
Eshat and Nisa by Imam Nasai.
I don't know if it is translated
in English.
Eshat and Nisa. Download it. It's there on
the net.
Esharat and Nisa, Imam al Nisa.
He mentioned the life of the and
how
he treated his wives.
In that book, Imam Nisa, he mentioned the
story about.
A man came to complain
about his wife.
K?
So he came to say
seeking his help.
When he reached at the doorsteps
of
the Omar's house,
he could hear
Omar's wife shouting at Omar's from outside yelling.
Laring up.
This is my god.
This is
happening in Anil and Mene's house,
so I'm not alone. I'm not alone. We
are on the same boat.
So he decided to go back.
By then, said Narmer opened the door. He
saw this man leaving. He said,
come.
Said, there's
nothing. He said, come.
You came for
something.
He said, yeah. I mean, what we need?
I came to complain about my wife. I
found you have this something similar.
Listen to me. Listen.
See the
the wisdom of saint Naramal.
This is the real manhood.
Manhood is not to
flare up you and get angry because the
shayba whispers to your ears.
Shame on you.
How you tolerate
a woman to raise her voice?
This is Islam.
K? Disabling her.
Said, he never hit any woman,
and he said, those who beat the woman
are not the best among you. That's what
he said.
He said, listen.
He cooks for me.
He washes my clothes.
He stitches my clothes.
He takes care of my children,
and he started list listing the
the daily chores.
So if he blurs from time to time,
blurs up, gets angry, upset, vent, you have
to take it. He's a human being.
He is a human being.
Don't you see what happened in the household
of the prophet?
All of his wife got together, and they
wanted maintenance.
I don't want I don't have. They were
insisting.
He got upset with them, and he said,
1 month, I will
you will not see me. 1 month.
And
he stayed in the masjid in a room,
and the rumors in Medina went over. Okay?
Okay. Remember, in Medina,
there are
plume amongers.
Oh, the prophet devotes his wife. The prophet
devotes his wife.
Say, Narooma,
he heard about that. He came.
He went to his daughter, Hafsa.
He found her crying.
He found her crying. He said,
did the prophet divorce you? She said, I
don't know.
Said, Nur Ahmed told her.
Your father is not better than Abu Bakr.
You are not better than Aisha.
The prophet loves Aisha more than you.
Abu Bakr, he loves him more than me.
So why do you listen to Aisha?
How many times I warned you not to
listen to her?
Then he left.
He went.
Saying that Bilal was
staying at the
door of this room.
He told that Bilal,
seek permission for me. Tell him Omar is
wants to see you.
Bilal went in, came out, and said he
didn't.
He sat, said for a while then came
back. The same thing. Then
the prophet said, okay. Ask him. Let him
get in.
Now said Nahumar.
He said Nahumar is genius,
intelligent, very smart.
He wanted to break the ice.
He wanted to find out that he divorced
his wife or not,
but how to
to start.
He said, oh, prophet of Allah,
when we were in Makkah,
our women in Makkah,
no one of them would dare
to argue with us.
No one.
You say something?
The head of the family?
They would listen.
But when we came to Medina,
keep this in mind, who are the
Ansar?
Who are they Yemenis?
The Ansars,
the
or.
Yemenites.
They're Yemenis.
And what is the natures of the Yemenites?
What's the prophet said about them?
They have soft hearts, the Yemenites.
They're soft hearted,
and they are wise.
And
and it's
the Yemenis. The Yemenites because the are
Yemenites,
and
most of the
the conquest,
their armies, they were Yemenites.
So then Nisha is softhearted.
So he said, when we came to Medina,
our women started learning
from their women,
and they started arguing with us
because the unsari women,
they know their husband,
soft hearted,
okay, tolerant.
They would hide and and raise their voices
and argue with them, etcetera.
So the
Muhaydereen,
the women of the,
em immigrants,
okay, adopted the same
attitude and started arguing with the husband.
The prophet said upon hearing that,
he smiled.
And that's what Sheikh Omar
was looking for.
He smiled.
Because now
the tension is diffused.
And when he saw the prophet
started to smile,
he sat down
and he asked,
oh, prophet of Allah, did you divorce your
wife?
He said, no.
Rumors are going on around.
Prophet divorced his wife. Prophet divorced his wife.
So he came out
shouting.
The prophet did not divorce his wife.
I just said,
the prophet
said he will not
see us for 1 month. He said, I
was counting
the days and the nights on my fingers.
1, 2, 3.
After 29
days,
the prophet
decided to go back
to his women, to his wives.
And the first one he visited was Aisha.
Guess what?
Did she rush and embrace the prophet?
Did she hug him?
I am missing you,
my dear husband.
Oh,
she said,
the month is not over.
You saved 1 month, 30 days.
Now only 29 days.
In other words, as if you're saying,
why the rush?
Why are you coming back quickly?
This nature of women.
The prophet
said,
which means a month can be 30 days
or 29 days. Okay? Let us have peace.
Now
imagine this.
So you told your your wife because you
were angry.
For 1 month, you will never see my
face.
And you left,
slammed the door.
And after 29 days, he came back, and
he stood at the door.
He said,
another day. Another day.
The month is not over yet.
What are you going to do?
That's why
we need to learn from our prophet So
now
when this sister came to visit this sister,
she had things boiling inside.
She needs to vent. She needs a shoulder
to cry on.
So be a good listener.
And when she cools down,
now give her
right guidance.
Please show
her the way, how she should handle these
things,
how she should
react
with the,
the bad things she hear and
the
negative attitudes of her in laws, etcetera.
And the piece of advice for everyone, brothers
and sisters,
we need to learn
forgetting.
When you hear things,
don't take them to heart.
Vain talk.
Don't take to heart at all. Finish.
You didn't hear anything.
Don't take
things to your heart.
Don't you see?
Or don't you know?
So sometimes, well, your wife will tell you,
divorce me.
Divorce me.
I don't want to live with you.
I don't know why I married you.
May Allah curse the day I married you.
All these things.
K?
If you are a real man, divorce me.
If you find a Swiss pin,
shame on you. You're not a man.
Divorce
her.
You know what she means by that?
Love me.
Yeah. She needs love.
She didn't mean whatever she said. She didn't
mean it.
Because when she cools down and just you
keep quiet,
she will come and apologize.
This is their nature.
Just ignore whatever you hear. That's why the
son of the sea, I told
You just ignore
the harmful.
You didn't hear
anything.
You don't take things to heart.
So this is my advice when sister comes.
But
and, of course, you have
to warn her
even when you seek advice from someone.
Don't
bring out the dirty linens or
add the dirty linens.
K?
And if you want
to seek advice,
you put it in the 3rd person.
My dear sister,
if a person has this problem,
what to do?
When you want advice from your mother, 3rd
person.
Never tell your mother,
mother, I have this problem. Then she will
react emotionally.
But tell her,
I want advice.
If a person has this issue,
3rd person,
she will give you
the right
piece of advice.
But the moment you say,
my husband did this to me. My mother-in-law
said,
now she will react emotionally.
I hope this is clear to the questioner.
Yes. Inshallah. Very clear Inshallah,
Sheikh.
Final question.
When someone wrongs me, can I make dua
against them by saying, may Allah curse or
destroy them, or may he give them hidayah?
No. You don't curse, but say, may Allah
give them hidayah. Make dua.
You don't curse.
And don't have this bad habit cursing.
The
prophet said, a Muslim, a
Muslim
is not the one who curses.
The one who also insults,
accuses
others,
and
the one who use
uses
vulgar
language vulgar language, impolite one.
So
for example, don't use the f word.
K?
So the Muslim should,
not result,
not a curse, not use dirty,
vulgar
language.
I hope this is clear to the.
And that was the final question of tonight's
session. If you'd like to conclude,
May Allah bless you and
your family, your children,
and your your families and your loved ones.
May
Allah bless you all. May Allah
elevate your status in this dunya and this
world.
And may
forgive us all false and mistakes and ignorance.
And may Allah
bless us with the beneficial knowledge of like
these.
And may Allah keep us to remain steadfast
in this beautiful deen till we meet him
and find him pleased with all of us.
Amen. And may Allah unite our and
unite our hearts
Until we meet
in the coming session, I leave you
in Allah's company and protection.
