I think we can't hear you,
We are ready if you are, Sheikh. I'm
ready,
Okay. Let's begin inshallah.
Brothers and sisters,
and welcome to our 55th
lesson.
Lesson number 55 of Usul al Falafa,
the 3 fundamental principles
with our honorable Sheikh Sheikh Salim Al Amri.
I will now pass the mic
and the screen to the Sheikh, and the
Sheikh can begin inshallah. Sheikh
Salim Al Amri.
Today is our weekly class.
And we reached where the author of Raima
Allah ta'ala
talked about
the prophet
about his place
of birth, Mecca,
and the place of hijrah, Medina,
and
the commencement
of his
prophethood,
how
the nubuwa
started,
and he will continue.
And he's going to provide the the the
proof now
that Allah sent him to warn the people
against
paganism,
idol worship,
polytheism,
and to call them to the Tawhid.
He said with Dalil
So the evidence
that
Allah
sent him
is what Allah says
1 to 7.
Yeah. Are you husband?
Oh, you wrapped in garment
oh, you wrapped in garment,
eyes unworn,
and glorify your lord, Allah,
and purify your garments
and abandon
a bridge,
which is idols,
and do not give away something in order
to have more,
and be
patient for the sake of your lord.
So this ark, the ayat
came down
in Mecca, upon the heart of the prophet.
It's ark, early verses came down because
as you know,
when the
received
the wahi.
And the first time he experienced
the interaction
with the archangel,
Jibril alaihis salam,
and who held him
and test him
and asked him to read.
And he went back to Khadija, as we
mentioned,
and
said to fear,
told his wife, cover me
up, cover me.
Then Khadija,
when he cooled down, when he calmed, she
took him
to her cousin,
who
happened to be a Christian,
a true Christian,
true followers of Christ, a monotheist.
Because the true Christian is the one who
follows
the footsteps of Christ,
the one who is a monotheist,
not the one who follows Saint Paul.
Today, the Christians
who call themselves Christian, they are not Christians,
actually.
In the sense, they are not followers of
Christ.
They are followers of saint Paul
who concocted and invented for them the doctrine
of the trinity.
Because what is a priest, as you know,
is unity.
So
so that's why if you really,
metaphorically,
want to know who are the true followers
of Christ
today,
you'll not find more than the Muslims.
The true followers of Christ today, Reis al
Islam, are the Muslims.
Nobody else.
So so Warakah
was a a Christian
of the early Christians who were Muslims.
And when he heard what the prophet
saw,
he told him this is the archangel.
I wish that I will live until the
day
where your people will drive you out of
Mecca,
and I wish I will be live until
then and have the strength to defend you.
So the prophet was surprised.
Are they going to drive me out of
Mecca? He said, yes. Anyone comes with something
like this.
This is how
history will react.
After that,
I was sent down and madested.
So, yeah, you are madested.
Get up now. Oh, you are locked in
government. Oh, one who is covered.
Now it is the time of the Dawa.
Eyes unworn.
This is the time now for Dua.
So rise
and warn your people.
Declare the message to them.
Invite them
to the monotheistic
creed.
Boom,
Eyes and warn them.
Warn your people. And that's what the prophet
did. He called his people,
and he told them I am Allah's messenger
to you.
He climbed on the
Safa.
And he called his people and all came
to him.
And he told them,
if I tell you
behind
this mountain,
there is an army
who's going to attack you,
will you believe me? They said, yes. We
will believe you.
We've never
experienced
that you lied to us.
So he take, I am Allah's messenger to
you.
Upon hearing that, his uncle,
Abu Lahab said,
For this, you gathered us.
May you perish.
So the prophet,
he informed his people.
Unawah
commanded him.
And you know what happened to the prophet
and his
companions
in Makkah
upon the hands
of their own people,
the tribe of Quraish.
Glorify
your
lord. Glorify
your lord and celebrate his praise.
Praise.
And glorify your lord.
Your garments purify
from any impurity,
from any dirt,
and this is the
external
or outward
cleanliness or purity.
Besides in addition to the internal and the
inward
purity, the purity of the heart,
the purification of the heart,
and cleansing it from any
attachment
to any false deity
other than Allah,
any false deity except
to be connected and linked
and attached to the 2 deity,
Allah
the creator of the heavens and the earth.
So
purify
and clean
your garments.
Well, which is that value?
Of which I do worship,
paganism,
idolatry,
and abandon
others?
Abandon that.
Shan't it.
And in the early days of the Dua,
my dear brothers and sisters,
The only
method
permissible was to talk
and to read the Quran to them. As
Allah said,
and strive with it, that means the Quran,
okay,
against your people, just recite it to them.
And by just hearing it,
okay, the Quran had
tremendous impact
on them.
So nothing. Don't do anything. Don't destroy their
idols.
First of all, you need
to uproot the idols from within their hearts.
Approve paganism,
idolatry,
polytheism from the heart
before you destroy these
material objects.
So focus first on the heart. That's why
the common features of the
focusing on
the, focusing on the.
So the Kaaba was surrounded with 360
idol.
The never
touched one of them
or destroyed one of them.
He would pray in the Haram, in the
masjid.
The idols are there.
He destroyed the idols, Ahmed fash
when he came back from Medina,
the year of the conquest,
opening Mecca.
That is the year because the idols are
already uprooted from the hearts of the people.
The massive that he touched their hearts.
Now
it's the time to remove the physical objects.
So
he destroyed the idols.
He watched the picture he washed away the
pictures drawn on the walls of the Kaaba.
And
the hadith that's reported in Musa Al Ahmad
that,
the prophet
answered,
they removed the idol which is on top
of the Kaaba and throw it away and
ran.
It's not authentic Hadid.
Well,
And do not give away something
hoping that you'll get something
more
at return.
When you give, you give it for the
sake of Allah, and you don't expect anything
of return.
And for the sake
for the sake
of your Lord,
be patient
because this is
heavy task giving to you,
heavy message.
You need to shoulder,
and you need to have
a lot of
a lot
of patience.
You need to have that.
So
that's why the early Muslims,
they went through a lot of trials and
tribulations
to strengthen them, so to have this Sabbath.
And as you
know, Sabbath consists of 3 or
3
levels.
The highest level of saber or saber aloftar
to
have patience
regarding
doing righteous deeds.
So you have to do righteous deeds. You
need to have saber.
So sabr aloftha,
the perseverance
that you
continue doing righteous deeds patiently.
Sabr aloftha, this is the highest level.
The second level of
to refrain from sinning.
To refrain from sinning, that needs trouble.
But it's not as the first one. It
is less than that one.
Simply
because
to refrain from something doesn't require any effort
from you, except not to do it.
Whereas
doing righteous deeds needs effort. You have to
apply.
So that's the second level of
the patience,
the refraining.
So you resist
and you and avoid
sinning.
And the 3rd level of
You have to have somebody. You have to
have patience
to endure
the painful
decrees of Allah,
the difficult
situations
and adversities
you will face.
So you have to receive that
patiently
with beautiful
patients, something.
Something happened to you, to your family.
K?
When you became a Muslim,
your family
told you, you're an we don't know you.
You're not our son. You're not our daughter.
Leave us.
So this is
one of Allah's decrees.
Allah decrees this to happen to you, testing
your truthfulness
and testing your
faithfulness.
So you need to have Sabr,
and that's what happened to the Sahaba.
So the Sabr is very very important
element in the life of the Muslim,
very important.
As Allah said,
command your family to pray
and be patient
and be your own model for them.
Oh, you'll believe.
Be patient.
Which means have more patience
than your enemies.
Don't let your enemy to defeat you in
this field.
Don't let them
win
because they are more patient than you you
are.
Then the
So lies and warn, it means
warn your people against shirk
and call them
to the Tawhid. Call them to
monotheism, to worship Allah
alone and to shun
all false idols, all false deities.
Glorify Allah
by calling to the tawhid
and asking the people to worship him alone.
Single him out
regarding
your acts of worship.
All your acts of worship should be offered
exclusively
to him and
him only. K?
So purify your acts and your deeds
from being
polluted
by any trace
of.
So you make sure that your deeds and
this is the n word purity.
Make sure your
are done purely for him
without
any associate
with him, without any trace of shit.
Al Islam,
the idols.
So the
the abandonment
of the idols
is to
leave the idols and charm them.
And to declare and announce
that you disbelieve in such idols,
and also
you disbelieve
and you reject
the followers of such
The prophet
carried on doing this for 9 for 10
years.
So 10 years, the prophet
was calling to the Tawhid
in Makkah.
After the 10 years elapsed,
he was ascended
into heaven.
Allah took
him.
The the year of
the sadness, the year of the sorrow, Amal
Husan,
the year his wife died, Khadija of and
his uncle
Abu
Talib. So Allah,
because the
now,
no one there to defend him,
and he is very sad, so Allah took
him
for this journey
to remove
that sadness
and to give him the gift of the
salah
and to show him his status
when he gathered all the prophet in
Bayt al Maqdis.
He brought them into life,
and they played behind him.
So the prayers
were described
and imposed
on this Ummah in heaven.
And the prophet Allah
took up his prophet to give him this
gift,
to show us
the importance of the salah and the status
of the salah.
For after that 3 years also,
he prayed he prayed in Makkah. So the
total of 13 years
after Allah prescribed
the prayers.
How about before that? Was there any salah?
Yes. There was a salah,
2 prayers
in the morning
and in the evening.
And we don't know the details about the
manner
how
those two prayers
were
carried
out.
So after 13 years in Mecca,
he was
commanded
by Allah
to migrate
and to emigrate
to Medina.
Well, Hijjalatu alintiqalu
shirki I la baladin Islam.
So the meaning of Hijjal,
okay, is to travel and leave
the land of Sheikh
to the land of Islam.
That is the meaning of it.
So he was
commanded by Allah and ordered to make the
Hijra,
the migration to Medina.
So the Hijra,
this is the
definition of it, Islamically,
is to leave the land of to
the land of Islam,
to live among the Muslims.
This is the Hijra.
Not to leave the land of Islam and
leave the Muslim
and migrate
to the land of the kuffar to live
there.
It's the opposite.
And if today,
people competing,
running,
bratless,
begging, take me take me.
I want to live in your country.
I don't want to live among the Muslims.
I don't want to hear the attack 5
times a day.
I want to hear the best of the
church.
That that suits me.
I feel happy to hear the charms of
the bells,
but not the Azan. No. No. I don't
want to stay in the land when I
hear Azan.
Listen to what is going to come today.
Prepare yourselves.
The
Hegula
the Hegula
is
from the land of Korah
to the land of Islam
despite
all the negative
things we have.
Despite
this situation in which the ummah is going,
still
to live among the Muslims, it is a
blessing.
It is enough to hear the adhan
and to go to the masjid and pray.
Still, we have redlines.
Still, I can't talk to my children.
Still, I can't discipline my children.
Not that
if I smack my child
for he will pick the phone,
They will come and take my
child. I will not see my child. Finish.
Finish.
Your
little
Abdul Rahman and your little
Fatima
is gone.
Gone.
Giving to non Muslim family.
And every Sunday, they will go to the
church.
Wake up, brothers and sisters.
Wake up.
When the angels seize the souls of those
who have rung themselves,
scolding them,
what do you think you were doing?
They will reply, you were oppressed in the
land.
The angels will
respond,
was Allah's earth not spacious enough for you
to immigrate?
It is they who will have * as
their home.
What an evil destination.
It doesn't reflect, my dear brothers and sisters.
Well, so
the
is obligatory,
is mandatory
upon this
to migrate from land of Kir to a
land of Islam,
from living among the kafar to live among
the Muslims.
And this is everlasting.
This ruling is not obligated.
It's not
until the final hour is established,
as Allah said.
And this ayah came regarding
the Muslims who stayed in Mecca
and did not migrate to Medina.
So this ayah talks about them.
They stayed behind.
I'm living among the kuffar in Makkah.
So now Allah describes what is going to
happen what happened to them when the angels
were taking
their souls.
So those,
the angels,
are taking away their souls
who wronged themselves by not migrating
from Mecca to Medina.
The angels,
they rebuked them. They scold them.
What were you doing?
What do you think you were doing,
bastion behind?
Why didn't you migrate to
Medin?
Why didn't you join the Muslim community?
Why you accepted to live in a state
of humiliation?
Why?
This is what the angels when they are
the angel of death is taking their souls.
This is the lame excuse
the lame excuse
they gave.
We were oppressed in the land.
Oppressed.
We were weak.
So we were oppressed.
A Muslim
should not accept oppression.
The moment you feel you are going to
be oppressed,
move.
Move
and maintain your dignity
and have dignified life.
Should not be complacent
with the lie with lie the life
that is full
of humiliation
and disgrace
and disrespect
because you don't want to come out
from your comfort zone.
So you don't mind losing your d.
You don't mind losing your children.
You're happy.
Your son comes. Dad, I'm gay. It's okay.
The girl daughter comes and lesbian mom.
Yeah. I can understand.
Okay.
Because you don't want to come out of
that
cozy atmosphere according to your standard.
You are a slave for the dunya. You
prefer the dunya.
So this is what they
said. We were oppressed.
The angels replied,
told them,
The angels
will tell them.
K?
The angels will respond,
was Allah's earth, Allah's land
not spacious enough
for you to migrate?
Why didn't you leave?
The duniya?
And don't you lose this
luxury?
So it is it boils down to the
life of the dunya.
I don't want to lose this. That's why.
I sacrificed the din. Let the din go.
No problem.
And this what happened
to generations of Muslims who migrated to the
west.
Maybe that generation,
the fathers,
maintain the deal.
Then after that,
children are
going and leaving.
Allah's land is so spacious.
Live
in any and live in any place where
you feel
you maintain your deed.
You can practice your deed.
Your wife can wear her hijab and wear
her niqab.
Recently, I saw many brothers with.
They went back.
They took their families from France and many
places.
Now the dean is the most important thing
for me.
I will not lose my children, lose my
dean for the dunya.
No. The deen, my dear brothers and sister,
is the most important thing.
You migrate, you leave,
and find any place
where you will be able to worship Allah
and you feel safe and your children are
safe
And live among the Muslims.
K.
It's they who will have * as their
home
because they did not migrate.
What an evil destination.
Then Allah made an exception.
The to follow. This is 9 ayah 97
in Surat Al Nisa.
I
98.
So this category,
Allah exempted them,
made an exception for them.
Except helpless men,
women, and children
who cannot afford a way out. So
those
Muslims who were weak
men and women and children
who could not immigrate
to Medina,
Allah
made and
exempted them
from such punishment.
But those who are able,
that what Allah
mentioned,
and that what was
what will happen to them.
Accept helpless men,
women, children who cannot afford a way out.
Then Allah said, the eye is to follow,
I 99.
For those, it is expected
that Allah will pardon them,
and Allah is ever pardoning and forgiving.
Okay.
As the said,
means for sure.
So most certainly,
Allah
will forgive those
in
98,
helpless men, women, and children.
And Allah
is pardoning and forgiven.
So
the hijrah, my dear brothers and sisters, is
mandatory,
and no excuse
for any Muslim to live among the kafar
and in the land of the kafars
if his life
at stake,
his deen
in danger, his family in danger.
You have no excuse.
If you feel secure
and you are doing the dawah
and you are practicing your deen
and you are living together as Muslims,
and your children and families
are protected.
So you have your own schools.
Your own schools
from KG 1 to university.
So the
educational system, which you and the curricula and
the curriculums you are teaching, they are Islamic.
Not that your children are in the public
schools.
And you know what they are teaching them
nowadays
at KG
from the KG level
to brainwash them.
So the deen
will will be gone.
But if there's a strong community
and you have your own schools and you
are engaged in the dawah and people are
becoming Muslims,
So what you have to do now,
first of all,
move if you are away and you feel
weak
in a
community where there are
Muslims.
And so you have this environment
where you can
practice and maintain your.
But the moment you feel that
I am losing,
and I'm losing my deed,
I'm losing my children,
then you have no excuse
except
to pack yourself
and move to any place
to live among the
Muslims.
As Allah said,
and the land of Allah
is
so spacious.
As Allah said, the ayah to follow aiah
100
in Surat Al Nisha.
And whoever immigrates
and
whoever immigrates
for the cause of Allah
will find on the earth
many
alternative
locations.
Listen to this.
This ayah
answers what you is going now in your
mind. Where should I go?
Which country? Where? What?
This what Allah is saying.
And whoever immigrates with the cause of Allah,
Allah watches your heart.
What's the motive of leaving?
Is it for
me? Is it for me
or for something else?
As in the Hadith, which is known.
Whoever is is immigrating for the sake of
Allah and his messenger,
then
Allah will accept it.
But if it's
and the motive behind
the immigration
is
for worldly benefits
or to have a hand of a woman
to marry a woman
as they said they
said, there was a man who made hijrah
to marry a woman,
So they used to call him that
he made hijrah for the sake of marrying
a.
So Allah is checking your heart,
and whoever immigrates with the cause of Allah
will find on the earth
many
alternative locations
and abandons.
This what Allah promised.
And what what Allah promised, Allah does not
break his promise.
As Allah said,
whoever fears Allah.
Allah will create for him an
exit. And Allah will provide for you from
sources you cannot imagine.
Cannot imagine.
So if you believe in what Allah said,
this is what Allah is saying.
Whoever emigrates
for the sake of Allah,
for the cause of Allah,
Yajid will up.
For surety,
he will find
on the earth
many
alternative locations,
and
abundance
and abundant provision.
He will find that.
And whoever leaves his home
as an immigrant to Allah and his messenger.
Messenger.
This came regarding one of the companions
who
immigrated,
and he died in the way.
And when he was dying, he put his
right hand on the left hand and said,
this is my
allegiance
that I left my
home for the sake of Allah. So Allah
reveals this ayah regarding that man.
And whoever leaves his home
as an immigrant to Allah and his messenger.
And then
death overtakes him
before reaching
the Redeemer,
His reward has already become
incumbent
upon Allah.
He will be rewarded as a.
And the wise ever forgiving and merciful.
So this is
what Allah said regarding the hijrah,
my dear brothers and sisters.
If
you feel and you are in a situation,
Your children
are leaving Islam.
Your children, you have no control over them.
You have no right to stay.
And from the beginning, especially if the children
are still young,
save your children
before
they grow up in such
corrupt atmosphere.
And my advice
of the brothers and sisters
who came from Muslim countries,
and they have roots and families,
don't cut and civil
relations
with your roots.
Maintain that.
Maintain it.
So the moment you feel
my dean is in danger, at the stake,
you go and live
among
your families,
your roots.
56.
Oh my believing servants,
my earth, my land is truly spacious.
Spacious.
So worship me alone.
Worship me.
So my land is spacious.
Move
and live where you can worship me,
where you can maintain your deen
your deen.
That's it.
I cannot
maintain my deen.
Cannot practice it.
Don't just say.
And now listen
to these,
which
are very scary.
Very scary.
May Allah protect you,
preserve you, protect your family,
and save you from all the
tribulations,
from all the
art.
But
always
keep in mind that priority number 1 in
your life is
the dean. Dean.
The moment
you're dean, you feel you are in danger,
don't compromise.
Let the go.
K?
And that's why we need to prepare ourselves
psychologically.
You prepare yourself psychologically.
What if this happened?
So you are prepared already.
Lead
simple life,
not
life full of
luxury.
Simple
one.
So if you move to any
place,
you can
accommodate. You can be
you will adapt yourself
to
the new environment
and cope with that.
Anjali.
And it is authentic hadith.
Narrated that the messenger of Allah
said,
any Muslim
any Muslim
who stays among the polytheists
does not belong to me,
does not belong to me.
I said,
yes.
Imagine yourself
now standing before
your prophet
and he is telling you this.
I have washed my hands of any Muslim.
Who lives
among the Mushriks,
And he
cannot
practice his or maintain his.
His is in danger, yet he prefers to
live there.
So he prefers living among them.
That's why
when the Spaniards
took Spain again,
Muslims, they left.
They ran away
from Spain
because they started killing them.
Burning their books,
turning their masages into churches.
So
they
migrated
and immigrated
to Morocco
and
these very close countries to them.
And even the Jews,
they left along with the Muslims
because they were afraid.
And this what explains the presence of the
Jews in Morocco
because they came along with the Muslims.
So they asked the Muslims, take us along
with you. So they took them.
So here, this hadith
and a very
Muslim Muslim Muslim.
The prophet
did not make any exception.
Any exception.
Your dean
is in danger?
No.
No excuse.
So that's why, my dear brothers and sisters,
for the time being,
be together.
Roll up your sleeves.
Be involved in the dawah.
So at at least when the angel of
death comes,
I am busy
calling the people
to Allah's deen.
I am on a mission.
I am fulfilling
the teaching of my prophet.
So let
those
present inform those who are absent.
And I
can practice my deed, and we have our
own schools under our own environment.
So
we don't feel
yet at this moment
that we are
at stake or in real danger.
But if you are not doing this, what
what justification
can you give?
What justification?
Nothing.
Like those who are running nowadays
to
live in the
in the Catholic countries.
Do they have the and intention to spread
the deen?
Deen is not there in their minds.
It's not there.
They just want to have
in the beauty of life.
They are looking for luxury.
Even
when
the where they can their women, they can't
remove their hijab.
So that's why the is
saved.
I wash my hands of them.
I'm not responsible.
I'm not accountable.
I have no commitments towards them.
No obligations towards them.
They don't belong to me. They don't belong
to me. And
Muslim.
And another hadith,
which is
authentic.
Hadith number
100461
authenticated
by Sheikh Albaani
the prophet said.
Muslim.
Muslim. Muslim.
Muslim.
I am innocent of having any obligations
towards any Muslim who live
among
the Mushriks, the polytheists.
The fire
fire should not be seen by the Allah.
What does this hadith mean?
Muslim. Any Muslim who lives among the does
not belong to me. I wash my hands
of any Muslim who lives among the
So if you are living in the same
neighborhood or the same
location
at night
when you
kindle the fire,
then
each one will see the fire of the
other.
So here the prophet is telling the Muslims,
you should be far far far away
from the Mushriks.
So much so
that when you light the fire, when you
can build the fire,
the will not see your fire, neither
he will see your fire, nor you will
see his fire. That means you are so
distant and far away from each other.
Why this emphasis?
Because when you mingle
with the kafar,
you might be influenced and get,
the habit
and learn from their customs
and adopt their customs
in order to conform
conformity
so you start to act like them. This
is what the is
warning us against, and this is what you
see
you see
today.
Right?
What's your name?
Mo. Mo. Not Mohammed. Mo.
K?
The he the way he looks,
nothing tells you that he's a Muslim
or she's a Muslim.
So this what the hadith is talking about,
that you have to maintain your identity
and should not emulate others and imitate them.
And that's why he warned the Muslims, and
he's saved.
Saved. For surety,
most certainly, you will follow the footsteps
of those who preceded you.
Span by span, cubit by cubit.
Even if they entered the lizard hole, you
will go and follow them.
The Sahaba said, Jews and Christians, they said,
who
Who else?
For whom else?
Yeah.
You will imitate them.
Follow their footsteps
blindly.
I have seen some of the du'a
du'a du'a.
I see the hairstyle, how they cut it,
No comments.
How they cut their hair.
Die. You know? Die.
This is what the prophet is saying.
Do the lizard hold. Do the lizard hold.
Blind fellowship.
Following them blindly.
Following them blindly.
Feeling inferior and disinferiority
complex
in order to conform. So
to fit.
To fit.
You lose the din? No problem.
The prophet said,
whoever emulates is one of them,
you don't bother about this.
The
prophet, he used to come his head backward,
Then he saw the kuffar doing that. He
parted it from the middle.
Why?
He wanted the Muslims to maintain their own
identity.
Identity.
So my dear brothers and sisters,
be together.
Have your own,
at least, small community
where you
maintain your identity
and protect your children, and you have
a small Islamic environment.
But
if you don't have that and you feel
you're losing your deen,
Pijilah is mandatory.
As you heard,
the ayaat and the hadith of the prophet.
May Allah protect you. May Allah preserve you.
May Allah strengthen
your iman. May Allah
keep you maintaining your deen, and may Allah
save you from
all evils.
Amen.
May Allah
keep us to remain steadfast
on this beautiful deed
till we meet him, and he's pleased with
all of us. Amen.
May Allah
forgive us our faults and mistakes and ignorance,
and may Allah
unite our
and bring our
back to the
and may Allah unite our hearts
have.
I
mean, and may Allah reward all of you,
my dear brothers and sisters immensely
for your patience
and attendance and dedication.
May Allah reward you immensely, and may Allah
elevate your status in this world
and in the one to come.
Brothers and sisters, we will now start the
question and answer session.
If you have not done so already, please
send in your questions on the chat section.
And,
however, we encourage you to try and ask
them verbally
by raising your hand insha Allah.
We have received some questions already. We will
take them inshaAllah and begin with those. The
first question, Assalamu alaikum Shaykh.
Hope you are in good health.
I have a problem that I fell on
sleep while in
while in the lesson for a couple of
weeks.
I cannot control it as it is out
of my control.
I feel depressed for not interacting
live sessions.
Can you give me any practical suggestion that
will benefit?
May Allah
if it is a sickness
to remove it and to grant you,
recovery from such a sickness.
But if this is just you feel
drowsy and sleepy
and you are healthy,
this is no doubt from.
Okay. Some people, the moment they sit in
the study circle, they doze
off.
Okay?
But if he isn't
any chat chatting, gathering, or an any gathering,
chatting, and,
or watching movies is okay.
So if that is the case,
the moment you still you start to feel
sleepy, get
up, k, and and seek Allah's protection from
the.
So you feel the flesh
you feel the flesh.
And our,
one of our who taught us hadith,
the moment he sees anyone
started to
dose to feel sleepy,
say, hey. Get up. Get up. Go and
check with you.
K?
So,
also, you need to prepare yourself that this
is a.
You are attending a study circle.
You are surrounded by the.
Allah
in the upper assembly is
telling his angels, see, my servants are sitting
to learn the deen.
You are my witness.
Testify
that I have forgiven them.
At the end of the study circle,
get up.
Your sins are washed away and forgiven.
So this what you should keep in mind
that this is halakah
of.
This is a study circle. This is.
You are surrounded by the Malaika.
Allah praises you and praises those who attend
such circles.
So having that in mind,
be attentive.
You have piece of paper in front of
you and your pen,
and you close the door so no noise,
and you
focus.
Because this
is end. This is study circle.
May Allah
make you
listen attentively
and ward off and remove the shaitan
from
whispering to you,
making you feel lazy.
Amen. Next.
The next question,
I want to perform Umrah.
Can you give me some recommendation
for sisters how to perform it correctly?
Accept from you.
First of all, as you know, the
procedure for the COVID 19,
we take all the,
precautionary
measures,
k, whether when you are in the airport
or in the hotel or in, in the
Haram,
maintain this
take all the precautions. That's number 1.
Number 2,
the
that
this is a. This you are doing it
for the sake of Allah.
If
the questioner is
a female, she has to have If you
don't
have
cancel,
you cannot perform without a
So if you have a,
then plan your
that
you will
the days you would be there, that you
are going to be clean. So you know
the
the days of your period. You know?
If you
still get your period, if you cost and
you don't get your period anymore,
then that's fine.
But
if you get your period
on a regular basis monthly,
take that into consideration.
And
there's nothing special
dress for the Muslimah, for the Umrah or
the Hajj.
Your normal clothes
that are
Islamic dress.
The when you do the Umrah, you don't
wear the niqab.
And the niqab is the one that has
the openings for the eyes,
which is known as.
K.
You don't wear it, and you don't wear
gloves.
But what you can do instead, you draw
down the
the veil
in front of men.
And
if you are
going to Medina,
first, for example, if you are going to
stay to Mecca,
then
you take a shower at home,
and you clip
and you cut your nails, and you remove
the hair, the armpit, the pubic hair.
And
you
wear your clothes and make sure they don't
have perfume
don't have perfume.
Because
when you are approaching the Miqat,
normally,
the the pilot will announce
or the copilot.
Anyone will announce that we are approaching the
Miqat.
That is where you start making the and
that's where you say
There is something called Ishtirat.
For example, if you are sick and you
feel that something might happen to you,
you can say, oh, Allah, my place is
where I
made or I am unable to to proceed
and to finish my.
Because by doing this,
something happened to you. Let's say that they
stopped you from entering Mecca,
and you are in a state of e
Haram, if you said this dua,
wherever you you stop me and I'm stopped
from proceeding,
then you can just remove your e Haram
and no need for sacrificing
the hadi.
That is the benefit of it.
And then you make the and
you say
and you carry on making
the Men and women are alive. No difference
at all.
K. So you make the telbia.
Of course, you are not shouting,
but you hear yourself.
And you carry on making the to
to
reach
Mecca.
You reach Mecca, and you see the house
of Al Azhar. So, normally, you will go
to the hotel.
You'll put your
things.
If you felt that you need to take
a shower, no problem again.
And then you go to the Haram,
and you enter through the the gate of
a salam preferably because that will take you
to the black
stone,
if not possible, from any other gate.
Nowadays,
you cannot reach the house because the Kaaba
is there's a
barrier.
So just you
raise your hand,
and you start the
the.
So each time you
because
under normal circumstances, you try to
touch the black stone and you kiss it.
And if you can't kiss it, touch it,
and then kiss what if you touch it
with your hand, you kiss your hand because
this black stone
came from the Janna,
and it was white and turned black because
of the sins of mankind.
And
the said, this black stone on the day
of resurrection will have a tongue and 2
eyes.
So it will testify for whomever touched it
or kissed
it. So this how you start. You start
your
around the house of Allah
The first round, you start with the black
stone until you come back to the black
stone. This is one round.
The corner that before just before
the black stone is called Arokn al Yamani,
the Yemenite corner.
Here between the Yemenite corner
and the black stone corner,
you
say
This is the only place that this is
the this is special dua there.
Apart from that, there's no special dua during
the Tawaf.
And all these books you find
that you say this in the first round,
the second round, all these are beat out.
Say whatever you want and to make
dua in your own mother tongue, whatever you
want.
If there is a man,
the man,
Hosea Mahram, naturally,
When you make the tawaf,
you show
the right shoulder.
Before that, you are covering the your shoulder.
Now you are going to start the tawaf.
You show the right shoulder.
And you can try to
little bit move
faster
faster
in the first three rounds.
When you finish the, then you cover
your
your shoulder.
But you see many Muslims all the throughout
the Hajj and the Umrah, my shoulder is
shown. That's not correct.
So when you finish these 7 rounds around
the Kaaba,
you play to rakaz behind
the station of Ibrahim, Maqam Ibrahim.
If
possible. Otherwise, you pray anywhere.
And you read in the first raka,
and in the second raka.
And after that, you head
to a and
a,
and you start with the and try to
face the house. You can see it between
the pillars.
And
you make the takbir on the saffa,
and you say,
and you read the and
and it is written on top if you
don't
if if you haven't memorized it.
And then you descend from Safa towards the
Maruah.
There is a place called Al Milayn Al
Akbarayn,
which is you see it lit by,
green light, green
fluorescent tubes.
That is where Haja used to run.
She was running there
when she was looking for water
for her son, Ishmael.
So it is
preferable
to
run between these 2.
Normally, it is for everyone, but nowadays,
because it is difficult for the women to
run.
K? And none
are allowed, so
the men can run
between these 2.
And the prophet
told us to say,
And then you reach the and
you do what you did on the shafar.
K?
You make the takbir, and you raise your
hands, and you make dua, and then you
say the takbir again,
and you make dua, and then you descend
from the Marwa to Safa. So now
from the Safa to Marwa, this is one
round you counted because some, they think going
and coming back, that is 1. No.
You go is 1.
Coming back from Marwa to Safa is 2,
and you do exactly what you did on
the Safa when you started,
and you do this 7 times.
So you start on the Safa and you
end up in the Marwa,
and that's the end of your.
What is
needed now
for the women
to cut from the the locks
of her hair,
if you have long hair, the tips, which
is 1 centimeter of hair. So take a
small scissors
with
you, and you can do it this when
you reach the hotel. But what women do
in the Malwa,
they bring out their hair and men there,
they or boys, they cut. No. Don't do
that.
When you reach the hotel, then you do
this and the umrah is finished.
For men,
they need to shave their hair. That is
the best.
If you don't want to do that, because
the prophet
he prayed for the those who shave,
and
then.
So if you don't want to shave, which
is recommended,
then you cut the hair from all over.
Not to cut just part of it. No.
To cut part of the hair and leave
some of it,
that is called Al Qajar,
and the prophet
Muhammaded that.
And many of the
people that nowadays, it's the fashion.
They shave here and the hair is there.
And even some dyes, they are like that.
So this is how the. And
by that doing that, your umrah has finished.
And then after that, you
can come to the Haram and play all
the 5 players, and you can
perform the last time to perform the last
as many times as you can because
the reward is so immense, so great.
Don't make multiple because
many people what they do
because this is a chance for me. So
I have to go to a or
the
and make umrah and go and umrah for
my father, for my mother.
No. This is not.
This is not.
So this is in in peace
about the.
May Allah
accept your, and may Allah bring you back
to your family
safe
and
with iman
hitting the sky.
Amen. Next.
Amen.
The next question.
My Tajweed is not so good. I'm still
learning. Can you give advice?
That the prophet
he said, the one who reads the Quran,
he face he faces difficulty.
He's rewarded
twice
because he is putting his efforts.
And the one who's
skillful,
man suffered to kill him and he would
be with the angels.
So,
you are getting your reward,
and the last seeing that you are
striving,
so keep it up.
Don't give up. Listen
to the recitations.
Play
the
the recitation of, famous recitals,
and I recommend
the recitals who are experts
like.
Listen
to. K. Those are the Egyptians, all the
reciters.
So those I would recommend.
So you listen and you repeat.
May Allah
help you
to master the degree at Amed.
Next.
Amin, the next question.
How should a Muslim cope with low mood?
A situation where you feel like no hope.
This is
called and
very dangerous.
To lose hope and despair of Allah's Rahma,
This can take one out of Islam,
can lead to the.
It's a very serious matter.
Never ever
think that your sins
are too much for Allah to forgive.
What is this?
Allah forgave the one who killed 100
innocent souls.
100.
How many have you killed?
Even the chicken, he did it.
So why you lose hope?
Why do you lose hope?
Allah forgave the prostitute.
You understand what's the meaning of the prostitute?
Woman,
he's living on selling her owner.
Prestigates.
Just by giving water to a thirsty dog,
Allah forgave her.
So the door
is open for everyone, for all sinners 247.
Allah descends every night
as in the hadith,
in
a manner suits his majesty and glory.
And he says,
Any repentant?
Anyone wants me
to accept his repentance?
Anyone wants me to forgive him his sins
or absence?
Anyone
seeks my forgiveness
every night.
Allah says,
Say, oh my servants
who wronged themselves
extremely.
They crossed the boundaries.
They committed all forms of sin and types
of
sin.
Despair
not.
Despair
not. Verily Allah forgives all sins.
Verily, he is.
The most forgiving,
the most merciful.
So my dear questioner,
ever
lose hope.
Ever.
The belief of,
we worship Allah between hope and fear hope
and fear.
And when we are dying,
we lower the wing of the fear, and
we only have hope.
I hope this is clear
to
my dear questioner.
And if it's not clear, you have the
right
to
raise your hand and to ask for more
explanation.
Next.
The next question. Assalamu alaikum.
A question from a sister who is married
with 3 children.
Her husband is well respected in their community
and always spends time,
giving the.
He would like to work but considers
all jobs are not for him.
The wife is under huge pressure as she
has to work and look after the household.
She wants a divorce as it has been
going on for a few years. Please advise.
You see, in Islam, my dear brothers and
sisters,
the one who brings the
bread to the table is the man.
So the bread earner and gainer is the
man, not the woman.
It is the responsibility
of the man
to take care of his family.
And if he doesn't,
then he's sinful,
and he will be held accountable
before Allah.
Accountable
before Allah.
And listen to me, my dear sisters,
those who are not married.
Anyone proposes,
even if he is a practicing brother.
If he doesn't have income, if he doesn't
have a job,
you have the right to tell him you
are not my cup of tea.
Sorry.
I am Havel of the Quran.
So what?
I have normalized the 6 books of the
sunnah.
I will not eat hadith.
I need bread.
So the prophet
and the 3 companions supposed to the woman,
and she was confused.
And she came to the prophet
seeking his advice. He told her,
very poor. Don't marry him.
Ruled out.
Abu Jahan, he beats the woman.
Rolled out. Marrying Osama.
So to give these lame excuses,
I am busy with the dawah,
and the jobs, there are not no one
of the jobs is fit for me.
But you work
and go and
leave the house.
What type of man is this?
So the real man is the one who
will look after his family,
the one who will work
and tell his wife you stay at home
because that is the normal place for the
Muslim.
Stay
in your homes
because they have
task no one can shoulder,
and that is to bring up the human
beings,
to bring up the leaders and the doctors
and the engineers and
the imams.
And Allah has given him that task,
which no one can shoulder except women, the
mothers.
Yet you are telling her to come out.
So give him a chance.
If he comes to his senses
and repents
and start looking after you and your family.
If he's
stubborn,
I will not change.
Tell him Leave
him. K?
And
Allah will bless you, Inshallah,
with a pious
righteous
partner.
If you want
to be more patient
and to say, I don't want to be
divorced,
k, for the sake of the children,
then would
reward you immensely
for your patience.
And they'll not guide
him. I mean,
is this clear to the questioner?
And if it's not, they can message back.
No problem.
Next question.
For the lecture today. It has truly hit
home. My question is, if the country of
orientation
is a Christian country, although you can hear
the Adan and Muslims who are minority are
free to an extent.
I am currently living in the west. Alhamdulillah,
we are able to practice the deen and,
insha Allah,
anticipating to move soon back to
the country of origin.
Where is better?
There are not so many Muslim countries
one can freely migrate to.
What should one do?
Regarding the last part of the question, there
are not many Muslim countries because, unfortunately,
the moment
one think of is to think of the
oil countries
or the countries that are
the living standard is high.
Countries that have skyscrapers.
But don't think of any other Muslim countries,
which is poor country,
and you can live with people, simple life,
and maintain your deal. People, they don't think
about that.
That's why they say it is difficult. Which
country I can't go to?
They don't accept me.
K?
So as I mentioned, the most important thing,
my dear brothers and sister, is your dean.
The moment you feel your dean is in
danger,
then move what you can. Practice your dean,
and you feel safe, and your children are
safe,
and that they will not lose their deed.
This is my advice for every one of
you. Next, please. Next question.
The next question. Can
we read
in Sujood
directly,
or we need to add Allah?
This was asked by my friend.
No problem. Whether you said or
without it,
saying the ayat in the, this is the
you are not reading the Quran. It is
just you are reading the dua,
k, as a
supplication. So whether you added a or not,
no problem.
It's not needed. You have to add
Next.
Sheikh, that was our final question for tonight
if you'd like to conclude.
Preserve you, protect you, and your families and
your children,
and keep your remains steadfast and dispute for
the.
And may Allah
elevate your status in the dunya and the.
Until we meet
In the coming session, I leave you in
Allah's company
and protection.
