Okay. Let's
begin.
Brothers and sisters.
And welcome to our weekly
lesson of virtues of Islam with our honorable
Sheikh Sheikh Salim Al Amri. I will pass
the mic and the screen to the Sheikh,
and the Sheikh can begin.
Brothers and sisters in Islam.
This is our weekly class, Baba ila Islam,
virtues of Islam.
And we are talking about the
manhaj
of the
deviant sects.
And we are
going through
some of the characteristics,
features,
traits
of their methodology.
Among these
traits,
pictures
is the
blind followerships,
following
blindly
their leaders
without checking their statements
with the Quran and Sunnah.
So this is a common
feature among
the deviant sects
that they follow their founders
blindly.
They don't question
the
what they teach them,
what they
push down the throat.
So whatever
they tell them,
they follow
without
checking
their sayings, the sayings and the statements of
their founders
against
the checker, the
Wahi
or Anasunna.
They don't do that.
And definitely, this is not Islamic
behavior.
This is how this is not should this
should not be
the way of the Muslim.
We don't follow
anyone
apart from
our beloved prophet Muhammad
because he's guided.
So whatever he tells us, he receives from
our.
But anyone else
starting by,
she's not Omar, she's not Islam, she's not
Ali, and the rest.
Whatever they say has to be
in line with the
with the revelation
because they are human beings,
and the possibility
to make mistakes is there.
They are prone to make mistakes. They are
vulnerable to make mistakes.
Human beings.
The prophet
said in the Hadith,
So
all children of
are most likely to make mistake and to
and to commit
make errors.
And the best of them is the ones
who
quickly
repent and turn to Allah and seek forgiveness.
That is the nature of human beings.
So to
follow someone
who's not Masoom,
only
the Masoom, the Invalibles,
prophets, and messengers,
we follow them
because Allah commanded us to follow them because
what they tell us is what they receive
from Allah. So they are just
conveying what they
received
from a while ago. The rest? No.
That's why if someone
forced the people
to follow
a particular individual
and everything he says, and he say, if
you don't do this, you'll be then
this person,
most likely, he will be
thrown out of the fold of Islam.
You don't force anyone,
and no one is eligible to be followed
blindly and accept whatever he says
apart from Allah's messengers and prophets
because
they are invaluables. They are masun.
So this is one of
the features,
the characteristics
of the deviant *.
My leader said this. That's it.
My leader says this.
I'll follow what Surah tells me.
No.
Allah
teaches us,
and he said,
Obey Allah
and obey the messenger.
And those in authority,
Those who are
and authority, those whom you should obey.
And here, the scholars
and
the rulers.
If you see the, Allah says,
but he didn't say,
He said,
which means
the obedience
of
those in authority
is not absolute.
It's not absolute.
It is conditional.
As long as
they obey Allah
and obey the messenger, you obey them.
If they
ask you to disobey Allah or disobey the
messenger,
don't obey them.
But as long as what they tell us
is not does not contradict what Allah says
and what the prophet
said,
then we obey we hear and we obey.
K.
So the Quran teaches us
that the is not
not absolute. It's not unlimited. It is conditional.
The prophet
he sends the group of the Sahaba
on
Syria,
which means mission,
military
military
expedition,
and the emir of the this group of
the Sahaba, he set fire
and he told them,
I am your emir.
They said, yes.
We know that.
He said, whatever I tell you, you have
to do. Said, yes.
Said, go and throw yourself into that fire,
because I'm your I'm here.
Some of them wanted to get up and
do that, then they started to think.
They said,
hold on.
We
became Muslim
and accepted Islam
to save ourselves
from the fire.
And now he is asking us
to enter the fire.
This cannot be
correct.
So they refused.
This amir
was known
of having sense of humor
always.
So he was joking with them, checking them.
Anyway, the incident was reported to the prophet
of Asalom,
and guess what?
The prophet, he said,
had they
obeyed him,
had they entered the fire,
they would never come out of it,
which means
they will have they will remain in the
hellfire
forever,
forever.
In
next
slide. Why?
Because
they obeyed this human being,
and they disobeyed Allah.
Allah tells us, do not kill yourself
because your lord is most kind, most merciful,
and they killed themselves.
This is our Islam, my dear brothers and
sisters.
There's no this
blind fellowship and following
someone blindly.
The Sahaba
themselves,
sometimes
they questioned the prophet
in the battle of Badr,
for example.
The prophet
wanted to come in a place
which was not the most suitable one.
Think and when the said,
oh, prophet
of Allah, at this location that you wanted
us to
remain in
and take this position,
is this this location
was told
to you by Allah
that you received the revelation from Allah.
So if that is the case, we hear
and we obey.
But if it is your personal opinion,
I think this is not the
most
strategic position.
We'd rather move
to
that this that area where we can deprive
the army of the enemies
from the water.
So the prophet said, no. No. This is
my opinion, and
let us move to that, and they moved.
This is the prophet.
Now let us elaborate on this characteristics
of the deviant
sect.
Following blindly, the leaders are out checking
Sayings of their leaders, their founders
without checking this, whatever they say,
they don't check it against the
the
Allah
says
in
sort
of. I have 23.
Allah says,
okay. They
The meaning,
Allah
says, similarly,
whenever we send a warner to a society,
to a community before you, oh, prophet,
a spoiled
elite
always, this is the case, upper class.
The elite
would say, we found our forefathers following a
particular way,
and we are walking in different states.
Always,
this is how we found our forefathers,
and we'll continue.
We will not question
their way.
We'll not give it a second thought.
We'll just continue.
So this was
the
the action
of the previous nations,
previous people,
whenever.
Allah is saying, whenever.
A messenger comes, this is the
the reaction he would confront,
and this is
the opposition
he would receive from the people. This is
the response.
There's no single
city or town in
that Allah sent a warning to them, a
messenger,
prophet,
except that the
those
the upper class,
those who are living in ivory towers.
They know if they follow what the messenger
calls them to because
what the messenger calls them to is the
other justice
and to be equal with the people.
So that all these privileges and
prestige
will not be there.
So they rather prefer to continue doing
what
they are doing and what they have
inherited from their forefathers.
And this is how
we found
here means way
because
depends on the context
in the ayat of the Quran. It has
many meanings. It's gonna mean
group of people, nations, can mean period of
time. It's gonna be mean way.
It depends on the context.
No. I just gonna have a an.
So this is the way we found our
forefathers in the way.
So we are going to continue
treading on the path that
we found our forefathers
doing.
Allah
tells us something different.
Allah commands up the believers to behave differently.
Allah says in Surat Al A'raf, a number
3.
And the problem, my dear brothers and sisters,
it goes down
to
the
shallow understanding
of the meaning of the kalimai.
The
Tawhid.
Because if you know that Tawhid,
you will single out Allah
and obey only Allah
and whomever Allah tells you to obey.
And you will single out
your prophet
by following him.
And the scholars and the ulama,
you don't follow them
just blindly.
You follow them as long as they
abide by
the.
Yes. We follow the scholars.
Yes. We respect and love the scholars.
But if a scholar
said something and that was his own
personal opinion
and he exerted
his utmost
efforts,
that was his if he had,
and it happened to be that his if
he had was wrong.
And I would reward him once
for applying and
exerting his
utmost
efforts,
because we are not obliged or obligated to
follow him and to accept what he said.
Because yet the ulama what I said will
end the year.
K?
So the reasons we
are applied
and commanded and obligated
to follow the scholars
because they are the
waratah.
They
are the heir.
They are the inheritance
of
the prophets.
So what did the prophet,
our prophet
he
left
behind?
He didn't
leave wealth, money.
Even
there was land in Fadak.
K. Fadak.
When he passed away,
she asked
to give her that land
because she thought of
the she can't inherit that land because it
was her father.
Like any other human,
Muslim.
But he forgot
that whatever the prophets they
leave behind,
that will
be taken to be.
They cannot be inherited.
And
and, of course,
she got upset when said that. But later
on,
before she died because immediately of, she fell
sick after the for
6 months,
and then she passed away. And then finally,
Sayyidina Abu Bakr tried all his best
to please her, and finally,
she was happy with the and
Hooman.
So the the the prophets, they don't leave.
Whatever they leave,
that cannot be inherited.
The only thing that can be inherited
is the aim,
the knowledge.
So that's why scholars
should be followed because they
have
portion.
No scholar will have all,
okay,
that the prophet
left behind. He cannot
have
all the Hadith and no all the no
one. No one.
Because if the scholar, he
had portion
of what of the legacy
that the prophet of Salem left behind.
Imam Shavri, Imam Ahmed.
Imam Shavri is Faqih, Imam Ahmed Muhamdis,
which
means
that is their specialty.
Though Imam Shavari, he knows the Hadith.
Imam Allah is the Hadith,
but he
his hobby
is
he's has more inclination
towards.
Imam Ahmed towards Hadid.
That is his specialty. Though, Imam Ahmed is
a.
That's why he has madha,
but he is
an expert
in hadith.
And,
The
ima, imam
Shaveri
studied under Imam Malik.
So Imam Malik is the sheriff of Imam
Shaveri.
Imam Ahmed also studied with Imam Shaveri, so
Imam Shaveri
is sheriff to Imam Ahmed.
But they benefit from.
Imam Ahmed,
he loved Imam Shafiri and respected him.
So one day, Imam Shafiri
was passing by
riding his mule mule.
When Imam Ahmed saw him, he stood up
and and he ran and held the reins
of the mule.
One of his colleagues of Imam Ahmed
Rahimahullah, you see,
you really
love Shaheen too much.
Your respect for him, your
you
ran when you saw him,
and you held the reins of his mule.
Imam Ahmed told him,
if you want to learn the fiqh,
stand behind
the tail of the mule of Imam Shaffir.
You know the tail of the mule?
Stand there and listen to him and learn
from him if you want to learn, Shirk.
Yes?
Imam Javari?
He wrote to Imam Ahmed.
And he told him,
oh, Ahmed,
you are the expert
in Hadith more than myself
That's your specialty.
That's why Imam Ahmed here wrote the
Musnad Musnad
Imam Ahmed.
Thousands, thousands of a hadith.
And
finally, now it is printed and
checked
by Sheikh Al Abnaud.
This is and
massive volumes.
The Muslim that is in our pocket. And
it's
the Muslim that means
it is just a form of classification
of the Hadees.
K. Because
there are different classifications
and different,
styles the scholars of Hadith
used in compiling
their books.
You have
Sahih
Sahih.
Sahih Bukhari Sahih Muslim.
Imam Bukhari,
the his style is unique.
He started
his book with the book of Bith Al
Wahi, the beginning of the revelation,
and ended it with the Tawhid.
As if he is telling you, if you
want to die on the tawhid,
follow the revelation.
See?
That's how he classified
his tawhid.
The people of the Sunan,
Nasai,
books of Sunan,
They classify the books of Hadith
like the books of.
So they will start with the
the,
the
chapters about the words of Sahaba, Salah, Wudu,
Salah, etcetera.
The Masanid
plural of Muslim,
another
style of classifying the hadith.
They do it according to the Sahabi.
So all the Hadith reposted by this particular
Sahabi companion,
they will be under his name. So that's
why the first one you'll find in Muslim
al Ahmed, Abu Bakr as a leader.
And all the hadith that Imam Abu Bakr
reported.
So imam Shabirullah.
So when you hear this terminology, you should
know. It is different
types
and styles of classifying
the Hadith
in such books.
So Imam Shafi'i, he wrote to Imam Ahmed
and he told the other expert in this
because Imam Ahmed, he traveled a lot
to many countries,
to many scholars of Hagid.
He
traveled from Baghdad
to Sana'a,
Yemen,
to listen to the habdis of Yemen,
Abdul Jabal al Ani.
And Abdul Jabal al Ani has another book
of hadith called Musanaf, the Musanafat.
Son of Abdul Jabal al Jha, Musanafib bin
Abi Shaiba.
And most of you find all the
and the
the works of the Sahaba and the saints
of the Sahaba.
So
so he left Baghdad,
and his intention is to go to Yemen,
swabhi with Imam Abdul Azraq.
And in the way, they passed in Makkah
to perform Hajj,
then to continue.
They found Imam Abdul Azraq in Makkah,
and he told Imam Abdul Azraq
why he left Baghdad. He said, okay. Yeah.
Here we are here in Mecca. I will
now
read to you the Hadith, and you can
take the Hadith from me. Imam Mohammed said,
no. No. No. No.
I will never change my
niyyah and intention.
I will take the Hagrid from you and
and somehow there.
So after the Hagrid, they
they went.
And
so he started with Imam Abdul Reza.
So that's why Imam Jaber, he knows
that he's an expert. So he's he would
tell him,
if you come across a hadith, whether it
is Shami
or Arabic,
k, the narrators are from
of the hadith of scholars of Iraq or
scholars of sham
or any other
country,
please send the hadith to me. I will,
use it.
I will apply it.
I will
deduce from it.
So they were benefiting
from each other.
So Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, my dear brothers
and sisters,
tells us here
in Surat Alahuwah
that how we should
behave,
and what should we do as Muslims.
As I just mentioned,
scholars,
they are the inheritance
of the prophet
so
and everyone has
inherited
part of the legacy,
but no one knows all the Hadith of
the prophet.
That's why all the 4 imams, they said
what? They said
If you come across an authentic hadith, that
is my mother. Follow it, and leave as
a,
my personal opinion.
They are not asking you to become a
fanatic and blind follower.
So Allah says in Surat Alaa a number
3.
Follow what has been sent down to you
from your lord,
and do not take others as guardians
besides him.
How seldom are you mindful?
Little you receive
admonition.
So Allah says, it's taboo.
Allah will ask you on the day of
resurrection,
what did you
answer
the messengers?
How did you respond to your prophet?
You do follow what your prophet
asked you to know.
Allah will not ask you why you didn't
follow
so and so. No.
Neither.
So Allah asked us here to follow
the.
Follow
that
what has
been sent
down. Sent down by Allah
because he is in the
the subject is not mentioned because
for
reason, for a sometimes for the
reason,
k,
k.
Benefit. You use the passive.
K.
So the will be passive, not.
So the subject is not mentioned
because he is not the subject is known
and for his greatness.
The
the Quran, but
he didn't mention.
He didn't say Anjal Allah. No. It's not.
Follow what has been sent down to you?
From your
the one
who cares for you, the one who
nurtures you, the one who nourishes you,
the one who
develops you, the one who brings you up,
the the one who makes for you.
He develops us. He
nurtures us.
That means
the.
Well, that's just doing here. Yeah. Do not
follow anyone else.
Do not.
The guidance
is in the way.
You seek guidance
in what I send down to you.
Don't seek guidance
elsewhere.
If you seek guidance elsewhere,
you will go astray.
The guidance
and what I send down to you,
guidance is not in democracy.
Guidance is not
in secularism.
Guidance is not in capitalism.
Guidance is not in communism.
Guidance,
not in any otherism.
Guidance,
prosperity
is in what Allah send down to you.
Well, that's
Do
not take anyone.
Do not take others,
and you follow
their sayings, their
thoughts, their ideologies,
their
That's what they tell you. No. Anyone
anyone
says anything,
we'll check. They have the reference,
the yardstick, the standard
criteria.
Does it agree?
Yeah.
No. It goes against
what Allah send down.
Put it in the dustbin
to the trash
of.
This how we, Muslims,
should react.
We should not be
accept we should not accept anything and
emulate
others
blindly.
The Muslim has his own Islamic personality,
which is a critical one. We critique.
We sift.
We check
because we have
the reference.
We measure things
a
bit
against the standard.
They have the standard,
the.
It agrees,
complies,
well and fine.
Doesn't comply,
doesn't agree,
we reject it.
I respect it. Who said it?
In Mark chapter, he said, if you find
anything that I said goes against the hadith,
throw it against the wall.
Throw it away
and follow what the the prophet
said.
Today,
our,
some of our,
they left,
and they don't want to follow what Allah
sent down,
and they prefer to
seek guidance somewhere else.
They don't want Allah's law. They don't want
Allah's Sharia.
They're
saying this is
was
suitable
at that time for primitive communities,
Bedouin communities,
nomadic communities,
not for
sophisticated,
civilized,
advanced
communities.
So today, Islam,
it's not applicable. Sorry.
Sorry, sir. We cannot accept it.
So this what Allah
is telling us,
warning us.
They don't want.
And nowadays,
they
have the
the the gut they talk
because they know.
No one can
stop them.
So they have this
audacity,
okay, to talk.
You hear
every
day, blasphemy,
apostasy.
So Allah says,
Allah
says
Allah
Allah didn't send down the revelation
for entertainment.
He sent this Quran
to guide us,
because this Quran
leads to that which is the most state
and the most upright.
Well, that's the civil woman doing here. Oh,
yeah.
Do not follow
and take others
as
guardians.
Role models,
examples to follow.
Besides
him,
glory be to him.
Joy.
Little little,
you receive, and you
receive admonition and you think and
reflect
in Allah's
kalam or Allah's speech.
How
seldom
how seldom are you mindful?
Little,
little time you think.
Because if you think, right,
you will not follow others.
How you will follow
the
project
and of the minds of the creatures,
the human beings.
He's a human being. At the end of
the day, he's genius.
Whatever.
He's limited.
This
human being doesn't know what is going to
happen tomorrow.
And then you trust him to
make you
code of life,
set of rules,
laws to follow,
to regulate your
mundane affairs?
He's a human being.
He doesn't know the future,
and you lead the one who knows everything
and who created you.
Alayalam mankhalaq wa holotivu kabeer?
Isn't he
who created you?
Doesn't he know?
Isn't the one who created
knows what is good for you?
And he is the most
subtle and the most aware of all things.
He created us so he knows what is
good for us
and what is not good for us.
And yet,
say no. No. No. No. We don't want
what
the creator says.
We'll follow x person.
Somehow,
my dear brothers and sisters,
all the constitutions
of the countries in the world
had been and has been amended several times.
Amendment.
It begins maybe 2 1 volume, 2 volumes,
the constitution, and now it is encyclopedia.
They keep amending,
adding, adding, adding to it.
New things, new closets, new items.
Why?
Because the first ones who wrote the constitution,
they were human beings.
And they mentioned and they put
certain
laws
to regulate the
mundane affairs
and and life of people
according to their knowledge of that time.
Then new things happened,
and the constitution
is silent about that. There's nothing mentioned.
What to do?
These issues they need
to be addressed.
And they should
be allowed
to address such issues.
Otherwise,
life will be chaotic.
So they have to
amend the constitution,
and they keep doing that
because this is man's made law, and man
is
limited.
Allah's
law cannot be amended.
Allah's law,
it is free from any defect,
from any loopholes,
and it's applicable
all the
time. That is the beauty
of
the Sharia,
the divine law,
because the one who send this law and
made this law is Allah.
You're not a human being.
Al Aleem,
the most knowledgeable
that nothing escapes his knowledge. Glory be to
him.
So this should be
the
attitude of the Muslim,
not that you follow
anyone.
Neither
without checking
whatever he said
against the.
So always we have to check things.
Is it are these things in accordance?
Do they agree? Do they comply with the
revelation?
Also, Allah said
in Surat Al Nisa, a 65.
That's why I said, these sects, they went
astray because
they
did not understand the meaning of and the
meaning of
and the meaning of Muhammad
Rasulullah.
The there is you see there are 4
types of tawhid.
3 are related to the kalimah, to the
Shahada of
and one to the Muhammad.
K. So we have 2 hijra, wubiyah,
qasmar,
shifaat, and uluhiyah.
This they
belong to Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala. And the
4th,
the Tawhid al Mutaba,
the unity of followership that we follow the
prophet
and that is the meaning of Muhammad
that we follow no one but Muhammad
our
beloved prophet.
Hazrat Nulkayim said
In his new
year,
that means for Allah.
Single out Allah
with all his acts.
You believe in 1.
Be 1 for 1. Be 1 in 1.
I mean, the way
of the truth and iman.
So the first
be 1, that mean
for 1, that is Allah, you worship Allah.
Be 1, be a monotheist, not a polytheist.
In one means, in one way, in one
path, that is the way of the prophet
following his footsteps.
So Allah says in Surat Al Nisa, I
have 65.
But no.
By your lord,
nay
by your lord.
They will never be true believers until they
accept you, oh prophet,
as
the judge
the judge
in their disputes
and find no resistance within themselves
against
your decision
and submit
wholeheartedly,
totally,
submissively.
This is what Allah says.
Allah,
he sweats by himself,
warning us, follower of Mecca.
By your lord, oh Mohammed,
like minun,
they will not achieve and attain
the perfect iman, and they will not be
considered
true true
believers
until they make you
the arbitrator,
the judge
to settle the disputes.
Whenever there is a dispute, they come to
you and accept your judgment.
And after you judge between them,
they find
no
resistance
or opposition
or hatred,
K? Or this likeness
in the hearts
against your decision, against your
verdict,
against your
judgment.
This is what my prophet
did.
I accept it willingly,
submissively,
and with
love.
And let you submit whole
heart today.
This is the meaning of God.
Finish.
My prophet said something. I say, I hear,
and I obey, and I do it.
Listen, my dear brothers and sisters.
When you read the hadith of the prophet,
imagine you are sitting in front of him,
and he is telling you, do this.
Always imagine yourself you are in front of
the pop star, and he is telling you.
What
are you going to say?
Well,
oh, prophets, this is not in the Quran.
Don't you see today?
How many Muslims
say? Oh, it's not in the Quran. It's
only in the hadith. It's only in the
sunnah.
As if the sunnah is something
secondary or trivial.
They don't know the sunnah is wahi revelation
from Allah, and the sunnah explains
the word of Allah in the speech of
Allah.
So here, Allah
O
Musalema! Your prophet tells you
and teaches you
to wear your hijab.
And he warns
you
that you should not remove your hijab.
So what should you do?
Two types of people. I haven't seen them.
They are going to come.
Men, they carry whips like the tails of
the cow. They hit the people, meet people.
And women, dressed yet naked.
Yet nay
they have size like
the hams of the camels.
When they walk, they are swaying their bodies.
They are inclined towards
evil
and seduce men.
What will happen to them? Life on the
agenda. They will not enter the agenda, though
the frankness of the gender can be smelled
from a long distance.
You can't I never need to connect
the now. Oh, women,
even if you by giving part of your
ornaments
because I show you are the majority of
the inhabitants of *.
And one of the women said, why? He
said, because you are ungrateful
to your husbands, and you curse a lot.
So when you read the Hadid,
Allah's curse upon those women who block their
eyebrows,
pile their teeth,
make tattoo,
etcetera.
So when you read the hadith
of the prophet
imagine you are in front of him, and
he is telling you do these things.
Also, Allah says
Either
The meaning,
it's not for a believing man or woman
when Allah and his messenger
decree
a matter
to have any other choice in that matter.
Indeed, whoever disobeys
Allah and his messenger
has already gone far astray.
It's not befitting the believing man or the
believing woman.
Allah said something. Allah decided a matter,
declared a matter
for his messenger.
We have no option. We have no choice
on Allah and his messenger decree and matter.
Any matter.
We have no
option. We have no choice
except to say we're here and we obey.
That's it.
Not to say, well, I'm not convinced.
You know what the meaning of I'm not
convinced?
You say,
it doesn't make sense to me. What's this?
Why should a woman cover herself? I'm not
convinced, and I don't accept it.
This will take you out of Islam.
This is a.
So don't let the shaitan to
pull your leg
into his trap.
If your iman is weak,
say,
pray for me. Ask Allah to send in
my iman. I will,
wear it one day.
My iman now is weak,
but I know I have to do it.
But I am a sinner. I know I
am
a sinner. I know I mistake,
wrong,
but I know I have to do it.
I know it is for me.
Okay. Say,
will pray for you.
Because to say no,
I don't accept it.
I don't believe in it. It doesn't make
sense to me.
So you are talking to Allah.
Oh, Allah.
I don't accept what you say. It doesn't
make sense to me.
I know better. What's the meaning of what
you are saying?
So I was saying
is not
befitting.
It's not proper
for believing man or women
either
Allah and his messenger
decided a matcha told us to do something.
No.
No choice.
You have no other choice
in what Allah declared
and what his messenger declared.
They
say.
Because if you disobey, I'll, I'll
the Rasul, you disobey Allah because he's sent
by
You
cross the boundaries.
You are
now
going
far
straight
from the truth.
Stay from the truth.
Imam Malik
said,
This was Imam Malik saying.
Everyone's
statement
saying
and his scholars say
can be either accepted or rejected
depending
on how close is it is
it to the truth,
except the sayings of the one who's in
this grave,
and he pointed towards the grave of the
prophet. Only the prophet whatever he says, we
accept.
We can follow it.
Anyone else?
We check what he said, how close is
it to the haqq to the tomb.
Sayedna ibn Suraj
said, this beautiful Asaf,
and it is
mentioned
in
most of the books of the scholars
of Anushnet.
He said,
listen to this beautifully,
attentively.
The meaning,
he said.
Whoever wants to take someone as his role
model,
an example to follow,
then let him take someone who already passed
away.
Want to take someone as your role model?
Take someone who died.
Because the living
one
who's alive,
you cannot be sure that he will remain
steadfast.
Let us
ponder
and reflect
on these wise words.
Because today,
Sheikh, I am one of your fans.
And you might
the chef might feel,
oh,
see my followers?
I have 1,000,000,
2,000,000.
That should
make you shiver.
Not to rejoice.
Not to the choice.
Because
if I made a mistake,
and I will make mistakes, I'm a human
being,
then that mistake
will be
people, those followers, they are they are blind
followers.
They fall in love because just they fans
fans.
They're just clapping for you.
K?
Oh, I was here to say this, so
they follow him.
Imagine 1,000,000,
they follow you,
and they
do the same mistake you did.
May Allah save you.
Allah protect you. That's why my dear brothers
and sisters
and the dua in particular,
do your homework
very well,
and make sure that the piece of information
you teach and pass
is reliable and authentic.
Because otherwise,
pea you say something
wrong, and you mislead the people, and you
are in your grave. And what is going
on?
So that's why here, see the book of
the Sahaba.
See the book of the Sahaba. They are
telling us,
don't talk take those who are alive as
your role model. Don't.
Just say this shirk that you are, you
love and he is your idol.
You idolize
this shirk.
K?
He's an icon for you.
Something happened to him. He's a human being.
He committed the sin.
Then you will
go mad
because you are expecting your sheikh
as Masoon.
And now all that crumbled,
and then you react.
I don't trust them. I don't believe in
these
people, and you will curse everyone.
And you will go back and you hate,
I don't want Islam.
Why?
Because you
followed someone
who is a human being
like you who can make mistake. He's not
an angel,
and you expect him to be
perfect.
So that's what Ibn al Mas'uz is telling
us.
Never ever
take someone who's alive
as an example.
Don't do that.
That's why we take
those who passed away
upon Imam al Jawa.
We are sure now
they will not go astray because they are
dead.
Follow the Sahaba, follow the Tabi, Tabi Tabi
Tabi. The 3 generations, and that's why the
prophet
he singled them out.
So keep this in mind, my dear brothers
and sisters.
Don't follow people,
blah, blah, blah,
blindly,
and expect
they are human beings to make mistakes.
Whoever wants to take someone as his role
model, then let him take someone
who already passed away.
Because living, you cannot be sure that he
will remain steadfast.
So now this sheikh I am following,
he went back on his heels.
He relapsed.
Should I do the same
like him
and leave the deal? And I don't know.
I was
my reaction
first of all, I have to be moderate.
I should not follow anyone just like that.
If I want to take someone, I take
the
and his companions.
Second thing, I make it a half of
my shift. Follow, forgive him.
He's a human being.
Then he said, Ibn Masir,
follow the prophet's companions.
They passed away,
and Allah praised them, the sahabah.
And the Allah said,
Allah is pleased with them, and they are
pleased with Allah.
K. So
I followed them.
Follow the the prophet's companions.
They were the best of this ummah.
Best.
No doubt.
Their hearts were the most pure ones. The
hearts of the Sahaba.
Their knowledge is so deep,
so profound.
The aim
of
the Sahara. And they lift simple life.
That is simple life.
Not like my
yesterday.
But he
got
oh,
Dispose the crowd.
Is this this is a this in itself
is fitna for you. Fitna
fitna.
My dear brothers and sisters, stop doing this.
Be merciful
to him. He's a human being. This is
big.
K. Then he is going to to give
a talk. Alhamdulillah. We'll attend.
Not to
rush.
Can I have a selfie with you? Can
I
what is going on?
The * that was delivered now?
Then he continued and he said,
Allah chose them, the Sahaba,
to be the companions of his prophet.
1 of the salaf or the Alemah,
he saw
people are following him. He said, what are
you doing?
Go.
Allah chose them to be the companions of
his prophet
to establish his deen, the sahab. Allah chose
them. That's why we take them as our
own mother.
So know their status. We have to know
the status of the Sahaba and
inculcate and instill in the hearts of our
children the love of the Sahaba.
Ensure respect and
reverence towards them.
Follow their footsteps
and try your level best to emulate them
to
to be like them
because they were definitely
definitely
on the correct path of guidance.
May Allah
keep us treading
on their
path following the footsteps and the footsteps of
our beloved prophet
May Allah raise us in the company of
the Sahaba
and in the company of our prophet
May Allah
keep us to remain a set pass on
this beautiful deed,
and may Allah
forgive us our faults and mistakes and ignorance.
May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
bless us with the beneficial knowledge of each
of these.
And may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala guide our
and may Allah unite our hearts to the
May Allah unite our hearts. May Allah reward
all of you, my dear brothers and sisters,
immensely for your patience and attendance.
Brothers and sisters, we'll start the question and
answers time now.
If you send in your questions fast,
you can ask verbally as well. And we
have received some questions already. We'll begin with
those.
In this month, in the subcontinent,
people do innovations celebrating
Sheikh Abdul Tadeer
Jalani.
My friend's uncle also arranged this type of
gathering.
I told my friend about innovation, so he
didn't,
one he didn't go to the gathering.
Now his uncle is angry on him and
not talking with my friend because of me.
Am I sinful for that?
Not at all. You are rewardable
by the grace of Allah.
K? We have to fight all types of
innovation.
Oh, you are not sinful at all.
You are the best
nation for mankind.
Praise ever and sent ever for mankind.
So
you are the best nation because you command
what is good, and you forbid what is
evil, and you believe in Allah. And this
is
bitter innovation, celebrating
the birthdays of
the saints. This is just like Catholicism.
The saints worship and
celebrating the birthdays of the saints, etcetera. It
has nothing to do with Islam at all.
And Abdelkader Gilani,
Rahim Allah,
doesn't he he doesn't like these things.
K?
So what the people are doing,
it goes against what
the
and the what the Ulema themselves say.
Imam Abu Talib Gilani is one of the
scholars of
Muslims,
scholar,
and
the and
all these they
have actually muted many things to him.
You you hear them chanting,
Abdul Kadir, Yajirani,
Yamousar,
Yefel Akwani. This is what they are chanting,
singing.
Oh, Abdul Kadir, Yefel Akwani, who runs the
affairs of the entire
universe.
It's not Allah who control the universe, Abdul
Kalani,
according to their belief.
So don't worry, my dear sisters.
What you did is the right thing.
Next question, please.
Next question.
My question is, I have just been given
a piece of meat of
and was informed that I shouldn't share it
with the cat, and also the bones
need to be collected
and then be buried.
The person who gave it to me says
it's Sharia.
Kindly shed light on this. I'm truly confused
by what I have just heard.
He was giving piece of meat of hapaca.
Right?
Correct, chef. And cooked it, and and he
ate it, and the bones gave it to
the cat. Right?
Well, she was told not to and to
bury it.
Okay.
This is not true.
This is nonsense.
Okay?
Nothing like that in Islam.
My dear brothers and sisters,
as a rule of thumb,
anyone says something,
this is something
the swam says,
tell him,
I will be grateful to you
if you show me the reference.
So now this
person is telling you
the bones of the meat of the apical
has to be buried,
the bones.
Say,
fine. I will do that
On one condition,
if it is this, what the Sharia tells
us. Yes. Of course. Sharia.
Okay. Good.
Would you mind
mention
mentioning the reference?
Is this mentioned in the Quran? Is this
mentioned in the hadith?
Where?
Then I have no problem.
That's how we can muzzle them.
That's how we can stop the fools
from spreading
such incorrect information,
and that's how we can
educate them.
It's many things. Everyone is talking.
Oh, I heard Maulana.
Okay. Good. Go and ask Maulana.
I trust Maulana.
Okay. Fine.
Ibrahim, Alaihi Salam, he asked Allah
to give him sign.
He asked Allah to show him how to
give life to the dead. Allah.
Allah asked him,
You want to have
more surety shield,
more assurance.
He asked Allah,
and Allah did not blame him for that.
As a matter of fact, he showed him,
take 4 birds,
cut them,
distribute them on the mountains
around you, call them, and they will come
to you fluffing the wings.
K?
So just I want more.
Will surely see that this information is reliable.
Would you mind asking your
Sheikh?
Or if the sheikh himself said it and
you heard it,
would you mind Mawlana mention telling me the
reference?
Why?
You don't trust me? No. I trust you.
That from my heart,
and that when I
convey it to people, they will ask me,
so just help me.
If he gets upset and angry, you know,
that he is
lying and fabricating
and concocting
things.
I hope this is clear to all of
you.
This is how we can discipline and stop
spreading
incorrect information.
I hope it is clear to the questioner.
We'll go to the next question.
How can you advise someone who expects whenever
he meets and hugs
people
like scholars that they will they'll be removed
some sins because
of Allah's mercy?
Would you mind repeating the question?
I believe the questioner is asking,
there is somebody who
believes that when he meets
and hugs pious people, his sins will be
forgiven.
How can you advise this person?
If he believes that,
he loves the the pious people and Muslim
should love the pious people.
And our ulema, we love them.
We respect them, and we show respect, and
even kissing their hands. That's permissible.
Okay?
Providing this share, this scholar is following.
That's an innovator
who are just giving their hand like this.
Kiss kiss. No.
So if he,
for example, I missed the sheikh and,
and I think he's one of the guys
that I just
and they hugged him all gifts around and
asked him dua,
So hoping that Allah
will accept his. There's nothing wrong with that.
But to think by just touching him, his
holy,
you are getting this and that. They're just
like,
they're not Muslim what they do to their,
religious figures. So we should not behave that
way.
Next question, please.
The next question, Sheikh.
Dear respected, Sheikh, with reference of last weekend,
can you clarify if the shafa of the
prophet?
Is only
those Muslims who passed away
and their for their sins without Tawba, or
if it's only
those who made Tawba
are entitled
to them.
The Shafa'a
mainly
for the Muslims who went into the fire.
They have fire.
That is the main part of the Shafa'a.
There are Muslims.
They are not Musharix. They didn't make it,
but they have they had sinned, so
they had to go to the hellfire
to be purified.
So the shafar is applied to them, though
then
there's shafar
and and for those in the Jannah to
be promoted,
to be elevated to higher ranks.
So the prophet
he make shafa'ah for those in the hellfire
and for the others as well. That's why
he told us that we
whoever
answered the adhan
and asked Allah
to grant me
the Maqam Mahmud, and that is the shafar,
then he will be eligible and entitled for
my Shafa'ah on the day of rejection.
I hope this has cleared the questioner.
And that is our final question of tonight's
session. If you'd like to conclude.
Welcome.
May Allah
bless you, bless your family, protect you, protect
your family,
and may Allah
elevate your status in this world ending in
9. I mean,
may
Allah keep us to remain steadfast in this
beautiful deed.
To whom we stand and find him, please,
that all of us. I mean, may Allah
bless us with the beneficial knowledge of justice,
and may Allah forgive us our faults and
mistakes and ignorance.
And may Allah
guide May Allah unite
Until we meet
in the coming session, I leave you in
Allah's company and protection.
