AI: Summary ©
Okay. Let's begin, inshallah.
Welcome to our weekly doors.
Inshallah, I shall pass the screen in the
month to honorable Sheikh Salaam Al Amri
for this class, which is Masai Al Jalea.
I will
Others or sisters in Islam today
is our weekly class,
and
we are
covering
the first.
1st issue, the first aspect of the people
of Jahiliyyah.
So the first
of the people of Yahiliya,
they deformed their ibada,
worship,
but by mixing and associating
righteous people
while doing
such
acts of
and worship.
So in the dua,
they,
mentioned their names.
Okay.
They offer sacrifices to them,
thinking that this,
is something
pleasing to Allah,
and
the righteous people, they like that,
and the righteous people will act as intercessors
for them.
This we covered in the last session.
Today, we continue.
The author
of
He says,
It does
reflect deeply in this
concise,
brief
statement. Waherdihi,
this issue,
this matter,
is the greatest of all the
and all the matters and the issues
that Allah's messenger
opposed the people of Yahimiya
regarding it,
Because this is
it goes against the the basic of the
deen, the call of Al Islam,
the heart of their,
the sincerity
directing
the old acts of worship to to Allah,
and now you are directing
some of these acts of worship to other
than Allah.
So you make the the saints and the
holy men
peers and equal to Allah
This is the the
the biggest crime,
the greatest sin.
So that's why Allah singled it out and
said, this sin,
I will not forgive.
Any other sin, I will forgive, but not
the shirk, not associating
partners with me.
Allah will never forgive
associating any partner with him,
and he forgives anything less than that.
You committed dinner. You drank alcohol. You oh,
but he will forget. You killed. You committed
crime,
Murder. He will forget.
Not the shirk.
And this is the problem
today
with the tomb worshipers and the grave worshipers
and saint worshipers.
1000 and thousands of Muslims are worshiping saints,
calling
them, offering sacrifices to them,
invoking them when they are in need and
under distress.
This is what is happening.
Will be invoked and called from the different
corners of the earth.
Someone in America, someone in in Europe, someone
in Asia, someone in Africa. Oh,
Everyone is calling.
But they believe that he will help them.
He will answer their,
their calls.
And when you tell them,
stop doing this.
Call Allah. Allah is the one who who
can hear you.
I am very close to you.
When any sublicant
call upon me,
and if sublicant calls upon me, I am
close to him to answer him or her
or her,
his or her
supplication.
Then you relieve Allah. You tell them, call
Allah. Allah is the one who's going to
answer to you. You will go away.
You, Wahhabi.
You hate the prophet. You don't believe in
the of Allah,
and they will start cursing you and insulting
you. Why? What did you do?
Because you told them ask Allah alone.
Because you told them
actualize
in your life.
So they are cursing you.
When you are telling them, implement
You alone,
we worship.
You alone, we ask for help. Alone.
But you are not calling, asking Allah alone,
and you're not worshiping Allah alone. You're worshiping
others with him.
May Allah guide them.
Is this issue.
The
Tawhid
Tawhid.
Worshiping Allah alone alone.
All our deeds, all our acts
are offered exclusively
to him.
The sincerity,
singling out Allah.
You alone, we worship,
and you alone, we ask for help.
That's what the prophet said.
No deeds will be accepted.
That's what he informed them.
Wa Akbarah,
alaihis
salam,
he informed his people,
his audience, those whom he address,
the Arabs,
Read the Quran.
Read the Quran and say,
all the messengers that Allah sent and prophets,
they were calling their people to worship Allah
alone.
And enter the tribe and the people of
Ad,
their brotherhood.
Who said,
all my people.
Alone.
You have no other deity
that you should worship
apart from him or besides him.
He's the one who deserves to be
and into the people of Samud,
their brother,
Oh my people.
Worship Allah.
We have no other
other than him.
No other
god to worship a deity to worship except
to
the people of Madyan.
Their father Shoaib told them.
That's what he addresses people.
But he had no other Ilah. He had
no other deity to worship except Allah.
Allah says,
This what Allah is saying.
We
have sent into every nation,
every community, every people,
a warner, a messenger,
telling them, addressing them, proclaiming, announcing to them,
addressing them. And then would Allah worship Allah
alone.
And and
forsake
all false deities,
all false gods,
small g.
These false deities you worship.
You take them as partners and intercessors
besides Allah.
Glory be to him.
Many Muslims today,
they don't
understand
the meaning of the kalimah.
I mean it.
They say it, but they don't understand it.
They don't understand the significance
of the negation and the affirmation.
Why there are 2 parts, negation,
affirmation?
Why there are 2 parts in the kalima,
Kufr and iman? Why?
You say first,
There's no god.
Negation,
disbelief. Yes?
First of all, you commit.
You disbelieve. You disbelieve in what?
You disbelieve
in the false deities,
the
anything that is worshiped besides Allah. You have
to disbelieve first.
But the
First,
I empty the heart,
make it totally empty
of the love and attachment
to any false deity.
Then I fill it
earlier, the sweetening
after emptying emptying
the heart. I sweet the sweetening comes.
I fill it with the sweet relief
that Oheed.
I filled the heart with it.
So the negation
first receives
the affirmation
because the affirmation. After I negated
the false deities,
the false
objects of worship,
Now I single out Allah and say, I
do accept Allah who deserves to be worshiped.
If you don't negate the false deities,
if you don't disbelieve in the false deities,
you are not a Muslim.
You will not enter Islam
before negating
and rejecting
and disbelieving
in anything that is worship
besides Allah.
Shame on many Muslims
that Abu Yahl,
Yahl,
Abu
Laha,
they
understood
the meaning of,
and you don't understand it.
They understood it very well.
When the
prophet told them,
One word.
You say that?
Because they knew the meaning of it, negation
and information.
They knew that
when you say
you have to disbelieve in the 360
idols around the Kaaba.
You have to destroy
them. That's the meaning of
No intercessors. No intermediaries.
So when he told them,
they said
describe.
Abu Talib,
understood it. Many Muslim, they don't understand it.
This is very, very paining and painful and
very bitter
to
accept.
I was saying about them.
From of
Whenever they are told,
addressed,
invited,
Whenever
they hear the word
whenever the word
is told to them,
they become arrogant.
This is their response, and they would react
in the following manner by saying,
shall we
leave our gods,
small g,
our false deities,
yahoo
manna.
Can we leave our
gods?
For the sake of
insane poet,
mad
poet, they meant the prophet
because they understood
He is inviting us to leave
what we wish him.
These are false deities according to the belief
of Muhammad, so we have to leave them.
And they said, as Allah says,
that they said,
Aliyah
Aliyah.
How come Mohammed
made all the goats, all the deities into
1? Only
1 we should worship.
All these
360 All these all these
false deities and gods,
One, he is inviting us only to worship
Allah alone,
no
intermediaries, no
intercessors.
This is indeed
an amazing thing.
So they understood the meaning of la ilaha
illa Allah.
Many Muslims today, they don't know the meaning
of it.
The proof that they don't know the meaning
of it,
they are saying, Abi Qadhi Jailani
or Hussein
or or
or
and name it.
Every community,
every country,
They have many
saints.
They invoke and they call besides Allah.
This very moment I'm talking to you,
people are making
these
polytheistic and cutting these polytheistic
acts.
And now there is a trend. There is
revival
among the to
revive
paganism,
saint worshipper,
and great worship.
Okay.
They make celebration
for every saint,
and they keep throughout the year visiting their
tombs, their mausoleum,
and every saint on top of his grave
is a big dome.
And the enemies of Islam, they support them.
They support the because
they know this is
is the opium.
You know, Karl Marx, he said religion
is the opium for the nations.
Is the opium for the Muslims.
Okay?
Let them dance and and sing and chant
and
yam up and down. No problem.
Let them.
K?
But
the enemies of Islam, they will fight
the activists
and the dua
who are trying to guide the and
to show them the way
and to teach them the.
They will label them and fight them
and provoke,
okay,
the against
them.
May Allah guide them.
Guide those Muslims who went to shame.
Allah
my dear brothers and sisters, will not accept
your deeds if they are not
done purely for the sake of Allah.
Allah will not accept
any deed if it's not done for him.
Allah wants all our deeds for him.
That's the meaning of
All our acts of worship for Allah
and Allah
alone.
No password.
Whoever
doubts and righteous deed
commits and makes a righteous deed, and then
associate with me any partner,
I leave what he did, his deed, and
he and his partner.
And what he did, not what he offered,
what he committed, that deed will not be
accepted. It is for
his partner.
And in the day of resurrection, Allah will
tell you, then go.
You didn't worship me.
You worshiped them.
Let them help you.
Allah says regarding the prophet
addressing the in the person of the prophet.
I was talking to the prophet,
the masoon, the invaluable,
who will never commit shirk,
but that is a message for us, addressing
us
in the person
of
the
prophet. O Muhammad, it was revealed to you
as it was revealed to those before you,
all the messengers.
The inner structure,
if you commit shift,
your deeds will be
ruined,
rejected,
wasted,
will be treated as
filthy rats.
All your deeds will be in vain.
And most certainly
unquestionably,
you'll be among the losers.
Rather,
Rather,
Rather,
you worship Allah alone,
and be from among the grateful,
those who are thankful to Allah.
So Allah will not accept, my dear brothers
and sisters,
your deed without a clause.
And remember, always, I hope that you are
taking notes.
Write on a piece of paper,
always.
Okay. Make these stickers around
to be reminded
the conditions that for accepting
one's deeds.
Three conditions. Keep them all over the place
to memorize them as remember them.
Number 1,
no shirk
to
hate.
If you commit shirk,
There is
shirk. Finish.
The deeds are rejected.
It's always there.
There
in the mind, in the heart.
Provide it. Number 2,
sincerity.
I do it for the sake of Allah.
Is my salah for the sake of Allah
or for showing off?
Is my for
the sake of Allah or for showing off?
Is my
fast for a love for showing off?
Always, I check my.
Always checking. I know myself
because my dear brothers and sisters,
Allah is watching our hearts
always,
and he knows what is there.
You can deceive anyone.
Allah
Allah knows
the lustful
eyes and looks
and what the * to do,
what the breast conceal, or knows.
So
you can't hide anything.
So always check yourself
and keep correcting and purifying your intention,
and work hard in your.
Because
if you do something
purely for the sake of Allah, good deed,
you can when you are in trouble, mention
it in your supplication.
Oh, Allah, I did that
for your sake.
So please
remove this calamity,
remove this problem,
this issue.
You know, the hadith of the 3
who got trapped in the in the cave
when the
rock,
the boulder
sealed
the mouth of the cave.
3 of them trapped inside,
so they told each other.
Now we have to turn to Allah,
and each one has to mention
one deed
that he thinks
he did it for the sake of Allah.
So they started.
So the first one said,
I used to
milk
the cows or the camels,
the animals,
and bring the milk for my parents.
Before the slave, I
offered them
the milk to drink.
And one night, one day, the the cattle
came late.
So by the time
I finished
milking them,
they my parents fell asleep.
I didn't want
to disturb them,
and my children were hungry, kind.
I did not
give the milk to my children,
and I did not wake up my parents,
and I stayed
standing,
holding the pot on my hand,
holding the container
in my hand
with the milk
until they woke up by themselves,
and they handed it over to them.
Oh, Allah.
If I did it for your sake,
please remove this rock.
And it moved a bit, but they couldn't
come out.
The second one.
Oh, Allah,
I had a cousin
who came to me seeking help,
and I refused to help her
except in one condition, on the condition that
I made a deal with her.
She wanted financial
help,
assistance,
so I refused.
Said, I will help you on one condition.
You allow me
to sleep with you.
She refused, and she left.
But she was in dire need.
Necessity.
She came back,
and she agreed.
And when I was about
To break the seal,
she said,
fear Allah
and do not break the seal
except in the legal
way,
which means by the seal, the.
That means
don't
commit Zina with me except through the marriage.
So the moment he heard that, when she
told him,
do not break the seal except in the
legitimate and legal way,
he left her.
Didn't.
Oh, Allah, if I did it for your
sake,
please remove the rock or move the rock.
And the rock evolved, but they could not
come. The third one,
oh, Allah,
I hired
laborers
workers
laborers,
workers,
and one of them left without taking his
wage,
his money.
And I invested it for him,
and I bought camels and cars and
livestock.
And after years or
period of time, he came back, and he
said, oh, so and so. I worked for
you one day, and I didn't take
didn't collect my wage. He said, yes. I
remember.
He said, oh, this life was stuck in
front of you?
This big herd,
different types of animals,
they are yours.
So please don't
ridicule
me, and don't crack your making mockery out
of me. He said, no. No. No.
And he mentioned to him the story,
and he
took all that hurt.
Oh, Allah, if I did this for your
sake, please
move the rock. And the rock evolved, and
they came out.
So this is the beauty when you have
something.
You good deed, you did it for the
sake of Allah so you can mention it
when you are in trouble.
One of the masha'ik said, imagine you are
one of them.
What is the good deed that you did
purely for the sake of Allah
so that you can
mention
it.
Do you have?
You should everyone should ask him as himself
or herself.
Do you have?
If imagine that I'm one of them, or
that because of you, they will remain trapped
inside.
We
need to work
on ourselves
and do righteous deeds purely for the sake
of Allah.
I know
one of the masha'ih,
He
sponsored, and he was looking after
many families, poor families, and orphans,
and no one knew about them.
Only when he died, when they read his
will,
they found out.
So he was doing all these things
for the sake of Allah.
So
keep this there in front of you. Condition
number 1, no
shit. Number 2, no
showing off. Number 3,
total fellowship, total
compliance
with Kitab and Sunnah.
That this amal I am doing
is in line with the Quran and Sunnah,
complies totally
with the Kitab al Sunnah.
If any of the three conditions is not
fulfilled,
this deed will
be rejected.
If there is a flouse
and no shirk,
but
no.
This Amal is not
in line with the Kitab and Sunnah and
does not comply with the Quran and Sunnah.
Do not be accept accept it. Like,
if
you
are
doing
without,
they are sincere,
and they think what they are doing is
good deeds.
What they are doing are good deeds. That's
what they think.
So they are sincere,
but that sincerity will not benefit them
because what they are doing is totally
heresy,
innovation,
something they invented,
and the prophet
said,
Whoever
invents or innovates anything in our matter, in
our deen, that is not part of it,
it will be rejected.
Oh, you have sincerity,
and
apparently, what you are doing is
complying with the Kitab al Sunnah, but you
have shirk.
Do not be accepted.
Oh,
you don't have a clause.
No sincerity.
It will not be accepted.
So
everyone should
remember these three conditions.
No shirk.
No riya, no showing up.
And number 3, mutava.
Mutabah,
following the footsteps of the prophet
that this Amal
is totally
complying
and in line with
the Kitab and Sunnah,
because
that's the meaning of Muhammad
As Imam Abu Nqayim said,
said,
He He
said this in his poem, the Nuniyya.
For 1, that's Allah.
Be 1.
For 1, be 1. Be a monotheist.
Be
a. Worship you worship no one but Allah.
For 1 be 1.
In 1.
In 1 path,
you tread only
on one path.
In one way,
on the path of the prophet
following his footsteps.
Then he explained,
what is this, the last one?
The last path, he said,
the path
of the truth and imam.
So always keep that in mind.
He informed
The
Quraysh and the Arabs,
k,
informed them.
If they
insist on continuing,
following
what their forefathers
were doing
and following their footsteps and
emulating them and commit
all
types of polytheistic
acts and committed shift committing shift,
then
That's what the
Quran
So whoever
associates
any partner with Allah,
most certainly Allah perhaps for him.
Janna is
purely prohibited for
him. And his abode, his destination,
his
place
is the hellfire.
Destiny,
his destination,
resting place,
all that.
For the
the the wrongdoers.
No one to help. No helpers.
Then the faith
continued.
That's why I told you
the
this
beautiful
nasa'el,
they are so rich
so
rich. So please take notes.
Then he said the oath of
Listen carefully.
And this issue,
this aspect, this matter
caused the people
to be divided,
separated
into 2 camps,
2 groups,
Muslim
and non Muslim,
believer and disbeliever.
That's what
did.
Separated
believers
and the non believers.
And
in the hadith of Muhammad,
one of the names of the that
he
distinguishes
and separates the people. Yes. He separates them.
Separates the
the same family, Muslim from the non Muslims,
believers from the nonbelievers.
The father is a believer. The son is
a disbeliever.
And when you read in the sira,
when the Muslims
came and fight
and in the battles with the non
Muslims, the son is a Muslim.
His father is a, and the son killed
his father
in the battlefield.
Yes.
Because now it is
a matter
of the belief itself.
It's not
the fatherhood. No.
Yes. Fatherhood is there,
and the sonhood is there,
but the love of Allah is more and
overcomes all that.
All that.
So here we had
The issue of the Tawhid.
K? See the Sahara
who
became
Muslims.
They fought their own people, Quraysh.
Cousins,
uncles.
Because now it is
issue of Islam, issue of Tawhid.
The battle between
monotheism
and polytheism,
the monotheist
and the polytheist.
The
black and white.
The,
in the battle of Badr,
many of
the Quraish, the Mushriks
were
taken as prisoners of war or captives, prisoners.
So I think Musaab, ibn al Umayr, he
passed by, and his brother
was arrested
and captured, and he was a captive.
And they were handcuffing
the
captives or the prisoners of
war. So when he passed, he saw his
brother. So he told the Muslim,
not his brother. He told the Muslim who
was handcuffing
his brother. He told him, please
make sure that the handcuff is so tight.
So he cried to his biological brother. He
said,
I am your brother. He said, no. You
are not.
He is my brother, not you.
He is my brother.
So this is the matter. This is the
issue.
They're
hate.
They're hate.
Because of the Tawhid,
enmity
took place,
and the hearts of the Musibat
became
full of enmity and hostility
towards the Muslim
because Muhammad was
calling them to worship Allah alone. That's it.
Nothing more than that.
Allah
when he mentioned the people of Alukdud
in Surat al Buruj, Allah said
You know, the people of the tent in
Surat al Buruj,
they were Christians,
those who were
executed, those who were killed,
burnt alive. Christians,
early Christians,
Muslims.
They were Muslims. They were monotheists.
So when
the ruler
was not Christian,
wanted them to leave their faith,
they refused.
So he dug trenches,
set them ablaze,
and he
pushed them there. Whoever
refuses, throw him into the fire.
And they were making this story
in.
And the mother came carrying her baby,
and she was hesitant
because of her baby.
And Allah made the babe, the child,
to talk.
So the baby
spoke to his mother.
Mother, we are in the truth. We are
in the
So Allah said,
what was their crime?
What was their sin?
That
they believe in Allah alone.
Because
they believe in Allah,
the mighty,
the
who deserves all praises.
That was their cry.
They were burnt alive.
So the same thing. The prophet
he was known among them, among
Quraysh,
Asadik Al Amin.
Sadiq Al Amin, the truthful,
the trustworthy.
They would keep their valuables
valuable
things, precious
things with him.
They trusted him even after
he told them that he's a prophet. And
they are saying he's
insane. He's mad. He's crazy, but they will
come and say, Mohammed, keep this with you.
I trust you.
How do you trust someone who's insane?
No. No.
We know you are not insane, but what?
That's what they are saying.
They keep these things with him.
And that's why
when Allah told him
to migrate to Medina,
he left Ali behind.
Ali
he left him behind.
Him
told him,
give the people their,
items, their things that they trusted
entrusted
me well.
He didn't say the al kathar I will
take now.
He's.
So
in spite of all this,
they hated him. They fought him.
They tried to kill him
because of the tawhid that he was calling
them to.
The jihad
was imposed
and made legal
for the sake of this kanima.
To spread See, my dear brothers and sisters,
keep in mind,
jihad
is not a goal, is not a target,
an objective in itself.
It is a means
only.
It is a means to clear the way
and the path in front of the dawah.
If the path of the dawah is clear,
no jihad,
we will proceed
spreading the light.
But now we came across a barrier, a
stumbling block.
People are saying, no.
We don't want the light.
You this thought you have,
this beacon of guidance. We don't want it.
We are content and happy
to remain in the
dark.
Islam tells them, well and fine. That is
your choice.
Remain in the dark. But there are people,
they want to come out of the dark
and live in the light, so we will
approach them.
No.
We will not allow you.
Come on. It's just unfair
because this is not your right
to deprive others
of seeing the light.
It's not your light.
You prefer to remain in the dark.
That is your choice.
Whoever wants to believe, let him believe.
Whoever wants to disbelieve, let him disbelieve. We
don't force anyone.
No compulsion or religion.
The truth stands clear from the
misguidance.
The right from the error.
But once you decide to block the way,
then you are a stumbling block, so you
have to be removed.
That's it.
So the jihad is a means of
paving and cleaning the way in front of
the dawah and removing
any obstacle
in the way
Any obstacle in the way.
So that the people
you grant the people the freedom
to make up their minds and to decide
and to study
this light and see the light and study
Islam, and let them decide.
You have no right to stop them from
taking their own decisions.
They have no right to do that.
So that is the concept of jihad in
Islam.
Obstacles?
Remove them.
Or
the
those who are blocking the way,
okay, decided
to attack you,
then you have to defend yourself.
That's simple.
Nothing more than this.
So this is the concept of jihad in
Islam.
So the jihad was legislated,
was imposed
for this noble
purpose.
Allah says in Surat Al Anfal, ayat 39,
Fight against them until there is no more
fitna,
persecution,
or shirk.
Because
Quraysh and the kuffar, they were persecuting
the Muslims
and forcing those who became Muslim
to go back to the kuffar,
to the shirk.
So the Allah imposed the jihad
to grant the freedom to those who became
Muslim to remain Muslims,
to protect and give grant them their right.
So that's why Allah imposed and made jihad
and the fight legitimate
and legal.
And fight them, the Mushriks of the Arabs,
so that they will not be fitna, which
is the shirk,
and forcing the people to remain in the
shirk
or go back to the shirk.
And the d,
the way of life,
and your dedication
and your devotion
will be entirely to Allah,
and that's only can be achieved
when you are free
and you become a monotheist.
The deen will not be purely for Allah
if you are a policyist because you will
not be worshiping
Allah at all.
Then Allah said,
But if they
desest,
they stopped
forcing the people to go back to the
or
preventing them from
seeing the light and make up their minds
and accepting Islam.
So they say to the people, we will
not stop
you, and tell the Muslims the way of
Dua is there.
Call them.
But if they desist,
then surely otherwise all seeing what they do.
All seeing
of what they do.
So when Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says in
this,
and fight them the kuffar, the disbelievers, until
there is no more fitna.
The disbelief, the kuffar, the shirk
left, and the religion is for Allah.
May Allah
will give us our faults and mistakes, and
may Allah
keep us and remain steadfast on this beautiful
deal, and may Allah make us die upon
the and
may Allah guide all the Muslims
to the
and make them die upon the when the
and may Allah
grant us their beneficial knowledge and righteous deeds,
and may Allah unite our
and guide our to the And may Allah
unites our hearts. In
the All of you, my dear brothers and
sisters, immensely,
for your patience and attendance.
We will now
brothers and sisters start the question and answers
time.
If you have questions, please send them in
fast, and we prefer you ask them verbally
First question,
Sheikh. Assalamu alaikum.
My question is, a sister has been paying
for madrasa classes for her niece and nephew,
but has noticed that the parents prefer the
secular education.
School time supersedes the time they spend in
Madrasa.
Should she continue to pay for the Madrasa
classes or stop completely?
Please advise.
Yeah. We
need to understand
by what
does what does she mean by secular school?
Because this,
terminology
is, is vague a bit.
Because if the,
this,
secular schools of secular educational system,
okay, which is different from the religious schools
of Madrasa,
okay,
where they are teaching the sciences,
chemistry, math, all that. So they are
and this is the the the case of
all the educational systems
in,
the Muslim world.
K? The maybe,
one class
daily about,
Islamic art and Islamic.
The remaining is not about the deal.
So if this what she meant,
then there's no harm,
and you continue supporting and helping
her
relatives
and her nephews
and
and nieces.
Okay?
There's no problem in that case. Unless this
particular school is there.
The the curriculum or the curricula
are poisoning the the,
the head of the children and is going
to affect their dean.
K? In that case, yes.
You can say, I will not help them.
As long as they remain in this school,
we can shift them to another school, and
I will continue supporting
and helping them helping them.
I hope this is clear to the question
now.
It is clear, Sheikh. We go to the
next question.
I would like to ask about clarification of
the term kafir.
Some Muslims are saying that that Christians and
Jews are not kafirs because they don't
have direct
knowledge about the truth, and they are only
astray. So argument
by Hadith Buhari that
who
says about someone is Kafir, and he is
not Kafir. Is
himself.
Please clarify and guide how to react correctly
to their argument.
Is this the first time for the questioner
to be with us?
Let me check.
No, sir.
The first time? No. No. Not first time.
So I am sad now.
It means
all this time,
I failed
to convey the message.
That's why I've been begging.
Take notes.
Understand.
We have been together now for
considerable amount of time.
Explained what is shirk, what is tawhid, what
is kufar.
And yet
to find
a regular student
doesn't know
the answer to this simple question.
I'm surprised. I'm shocked.
Anyway,
please, my dear brothers and sisters,
take this issue seriously
and learn your dean seriously.
Okay.
What is?
What's the meaning of?
This is the root. What is it?
Means to cover. In just like the in
English.
So why
the disbeliever
is called Kafir?
Because he is covering something.
So what is he covering?
He is covering the truth.
He's covering the the
truth.
What is the truth?
The truth that has been
blanched
in him,
and Allah had wired him
and built this
truth in his heart and her heart,
and that is the fitra.
The fitra.
Every child is born upon
the fitra, the natural
disposition,
which means the
ability
to believe in Allah.
If this child is left alone
without
any external
influences,
he will turn
to the worship of Allah and worship Allah.
But what spoils this child,
that's why the children of the non Muslims
who died before reaching the age of puberty,
the prophet he saw them in the Jannah
because a child is born
pure, clean
with the fitrah.
Now
the prophet said,
but
this child is spoiled,
brainwashed,
programmed by his parents.
So
his parents are the ones
to
make this child deviate
and divert from the right track, right path
from the fitter.
Make him a Christian.
There is
clips short clip in the in the on
YouTube.
Baby girl asking when she was reading,
verses from the bible arguing with her father.
The first one, she's
to heed the baby,
and the father couldn't answer her question.
Look for it and watch it.
The child knows and feels otherwise there.
Up. God is up. Up.
And now you are saying, no. God is
Jesus Christ.
God died for your sin.
You have to believe in that,
and then you start indoctrinating
and spoiling the mind of the child
and filling this pure
heart of this pure angel
with the dirt, with the kufr, with the
wrong belief.
Wrong belief.
Brother told me in the UK,
where the schools they visit, the Masjid.
So this was in in, not in London,
outside, on the outskirts.
So he said when we the school
pupils,
very small, when they entered the Masjid, they
frustrated, and they went to
placing their forage on the
on the on the ground.
So a child is pure.
But then, the parents,
you're not.
They make him Christian.
They make him a Jew.
They make him Zoroastrian.
Though he's born
pure, believing in Allah.
My dear brothers and sisters, Islam
is the belief of all the prophets
all the prophets.
Adam was Muslim. Moses was Muslim. Jacob was
Muslim. Solomon was Muslim.
Jesus was Muslim. David was Muslim. John the
Baptist
was all. They were Muslims.
So it is only one religion, al Islam.
There's nothing called the religion of Christianity
or Judaism. Nothing like that
at all.
The deen is one
of all the prophets.
Yes. Different laws
Sharia,
and the law talks addressing the issues of
the do's and the don'ts,
not the belief itself. The belief is 1
monotheism.
So if you are a true Christian,
you have to become a Muslim
because that is what,
Isa alaihis salam was.
So we are the true followers of Isa,
not you. We are the true followers Muslims
are the true followers of Christ.
We follow him. We play as he played.
We perform wudu as he performed.
We place our fathers on the floor.
Not like this, you do,
because that's not the way Christ prayed.
We are the true followers of Musa, Alaihi
Salam.
So the Christians today, actually,
they are not following
Christ,
and we are inviting them
to follow Christ.
And to follow Christ means to follow Islam
because he told them in the book of
Deuteronomy,
you follow the Paraclete,
the Praised 1,
and that is Ahmed,
the prophet.
And that's why we Muslims believe he is
going to come down,
and he is going to break the crucifix
the crucifixion,
the the the cross, and he is going
to kill the swines, and he will not
accept from anyone
except Al Islam. That what we Muslims believe.
And he will pray behind the Mahdi,
and then he will perform.
He's a Muslim.
So the whole Christians you see today, the
whole bulk of Christian
done today,
they're not Christians
in the sense
followers of Christ. They are actually
followers of saint
Paul.
Paul
or Saul, s a u l.
This is the culprit. This is the real
man
who corrupted Christianity,
who corrupted these teachings of Isa alaihis salam.
And he was not one of the disciples
of Isa.
He was an agent for the Romans and
tax collector,
and he is the one who concocted
for the Christians
the doctrine of the holy trinity,
and that god that Christ
died for their sins on the cross.
So the Christian today, they are not following
the the religion of Christ.
They are not following
Jesus Christ, and that's why those who decided,
read the history of the church, read the
history of Christianity,
those who remain
firm
following the footsteps of Christ and his teachings
were executed and killed
because they were
believing that Christ is not God or God
incarnate.
No. He they believe that he was one
of the messengers of Allah.
So the Christians,
they are covering the truth. They are not
following the the religion of Christ,
and that's why Allah told us in the
Quran
that they are.
So those Muslims who are saying, Christians are
not,
they don't know what is coming out of
their heads as if they
never read the Quran. Allah says,
Indeed, they disbelieved
those who say
God is trinity.
God is one
element and part of the trinity.
God is trinity, the father, the son, and
the holy ghost.
My question to the questioner,
who says that?
Who says in the name of the father,
the son, and the holy ghost? Who says
that? Muslims?
Jews?
Hindu?
Buddhist?
Who says this?
The answer is clear. The Christians
are the ones who are saying this.
So Allah says,
Indeed, they are disbelievers.
Those who said
God is 3,
the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.
Allah said,
Most certainly,
they disbelieved.
They blasphemed
those who say
Jesus Christ.
Most certainly,
God, the almighty.
It's Jesus Christ. Who says this?
The Christians.
This what Allah said.
Allah's saying telling us that there are.
Shall we believe what Allah says,
or what the fools
and the ignorant
are,
the agents
the agents
are working to place their masters.
So Allah said they are disbelievers. They are
cast,
And we,
as Muslims,
pray to Allah to guide them,
and we invite them.
If you want to become a true Christian,
true followers of Christ
become Muslims. Follow Muhammad.
By following Muhammad,
you don't lose Christ,
You don't lose Moses. You don't lose any
of the prophets. You believe in
all of them, and we love all of
them. And we hope to see all of
them in the, and
Allah
gather us
with them in the 99 army. I hope
this is clear, not only to the questioner,
but to every brother and sister.
So listen to the answer
and memorize it and internalize
it
so you know how to handle
such
and
such doubts when you come across.
Next question, please.
Yes. That was the final question of tonight's
session.
I hope it is clear to everyone.
It's clear, and, that was the final question
of tonight's session.
May Allah bless you. May Allah protect you.
May Allah
elevate your status
in this in this world and in.
And may Allah
forgive us our faults and mistakes and ignorance,
and may Allah
bless us with the beneficial knowledge and righteous
deeds. Until we meet
in the coming session,
I leave you in Allah's company
and protection.
