Okay.
We'll start.
Okay.
And sisters and welcome to our 60th
lesson.
Lesson number 60.
3 fundamental principles
with our beloved sheikh, Sheikh Salem Lamri.
I will pass the mic and the screen
to the Sheikh, and the Sheikh can begin
inshallah.
My dear brothers and sisters in Islam,
We are reaching the end
about the end of this beautiful book. May
Allah reward
immensely its author
an elevated
status and.
This is our weekly class.
The last that we saw by the Sheikh
Al Imam Al Mujaddid, Mohammed
We reached what the author is saying,
talking about
the prophet
and his message.
Deen
Allah perfected
and completed this deen through him.
So the deen, my dear brothers and sisters,
deen al Islam,
has been
completed and perfected.
And when there is something complete and perfect,
it will not accept
modifications,
additions,
or deletions.
Because this deen, Allah himself
protected it.
Because it is the last message for mankind,
so it has to be
protected
and maintained,
and it is pure,
pristine
form. Previous
messages,
the people were entrusted, the learned men,
or buyers,
please,
But they did not
safeguard that Amanah, that trust.
So the final message, Allah said, no. I
will not entrust anyone.
I am the one who's going to protect
it.
It's us we who send down
the dikr, the reminder,
the remembrance.
This book, the deed,
Quran,
and it is we,
us,
who's going to
protect it.
So Allah protected the deed from day
1.
Yibril
decides
and rehearse the aya to the
The
is, absorbs,
and memorized.
Because Allah
told
him
It is because
the in
the beginning,
Yibreel is leading, he risks after
he was afraid to miss anything.
So Allah assured him
by saying,
It is we who's going to
collect
it in your heart.
So don't
worry. You will not
forget it.
Quran, and we'll teach you as recital, how
you recite.
It is recited to you.
Read and follow that recitation.
It's recital.
So the deen was protected from the beginning.
And the deen
was taught and conveyed and transmitted
orally
orally.
Jibril orally to the prophet, the prophet to
the Sahar.
In addition to this
oral transmission,
the writing.
They were writers,
scribes
from the beginning.
The writers of the revelation.
The prophet,
he calls them.
He reached to them the Ayat, and they
write.
Besides
that,
the Arabs
were
unlettered nation
unlettered.
Because they cannot read and write, they commit
everything to memory.
They memorize everything.
Just
before the talk today, a bother send me
a clip, and I will share it with
many of you,
of a young boy
in
Saudi Arabia.
He memorialized
all the books of hadith,
the main books of Hadith,
Bukhari and Muslim and the books of the
Sunan, and
These are
1,000 and thousands
of.
So no one can say,
maybe I that this was there at that
time. No. Even today.
Even today.
So the Arabs, they were unelected
nation.
So they committed everything to Muhammad.
A poet will say his poem only once,
and it will be Muhammadized.
Now when the Quran came,
they have that talent.
Everything is absorbed and committed to mamani
in addition to the rioting.
And today,
there are millions
of memorizers.
If the Quran is taken
and all the books of the Quran are
taken away,
the Muslim, they will
write it again because
it is here
in their minds and hearts.
That's why the prophet said, this Quran,
The water will not wash it away. What
does that mean? The water will not wash
it away.
If I take the Quran with it in
the water, the ink will not dissolve.
It will dissolve.
So what does it mean? The water will
not wash it away because it is in
the hearts of the people,
so it will not be washed away.
That is, he will dip himself into the
water, and the Quran is there. It will
not be washed away.
So
the deen has been completed, my dear brothers
and sisters,
and perfect.
So if the Muslim has to know this,
and since it is complete
has been completed and perfected,
There's no room for adding anything to the
deen.
No room for bitter.
No room for any innovation
in the deen.
No room for it.
No. No good innovation.
What will make it good?
Tell me. What will make it good?
The deen is in need of it. That
is right. It's good.
So if the deen is in need of
it, the deen is incomplete.
If the deen is incomplete,
the prophet
betrayed the message and did not deliver it
because Allah said he completed and perfected the
message.
That means the prophet,
he
had part of it.
That's what Imam Malik
realized.
The ugliness,
the
ugliness
of that statement with Hasana.
He said,
Imam Malik and
this is he's the faqih
of of
the Medina. Medina.
He's the one that
from
all over the place
flock to him.
He said,
Anyone who claims there's a good elevation, good
in the deen,
He insinuates
and actually he accuses
the prophet
of betraying the message.
In
this I heard Allah saying,
I
heard
Allah
saying,
I heard Allah saying,
today,
I have completed your deen, perfected your deen,
completed my favors upon you,
and have chosen Islam as a way of
life for you.
And what was not deen at that time,
at that
of the prophet, it will not be a
deen today.
In other words,
anything that was not practiced at the time
of the and
the didn't do it, it will not be
accepted today.
It will not be accepted.
That's why when the man asked him,
gave his,
Malik
started to sweat
because this question,
no one should ask
because the man is asking
about the manna, the way
Allah
is Tawah.
The
manna. How?
No one knows anything about the how.
Because
Allah
Nothing is like unto him,
and he's all veera or seer.
And there's is one of his divine actions.
We don't know
anything about how it happened.
So Imam Malik started to sweat.
Then he asked
he said,
where's the question?
And he told,
This is the words that came
from the mouth of Imam Malik.
Many,
Many, many books said,
but the words that he uttered,
which means the same thing, actually.
Is not unknown. It is known. We know
the meaning of
and not the meaning of in Arabic, linguistically.
Means to write,
to ascent.
These are the meanings
of.
Is a grammarian
and etymologist.
He said we were in the desert because
that's how the grammarian
compiled the
Arabic grammar
by going
into the Badia,
to the Arabs, to the Bedouin,
and listen to them,
how they talk.
Oh, the far they
marfur, they there's.
K?
So they listen and they write,
and they listen to their poetry.
Because poetry is the record of the Arabs.
You want to know anything about the Arabs?
Read the poetry.
You want to understand the Quran? Read the
Arabic poetry
because it will teach you
the different patterns of speech the Arabs use,
and the Quran
use many of these patterns of speech.
The one who wrote
Quran, they asked him once,
Sheikh, what what are you reading
nowadays?
What books are you reading? He said, I
am reading
the one
This is the compendium or the the book
of the poems of.
I'm reading it to know the speech of
my to know
to know the Quran because the Quran came
in the Arabic tongue.
You don't know Arabic tongue?
Goodbye.
You will not understand.
You will just remain reading translations
after translations, and you are not reading actually
and understand
the original text
and enjoy
leading the speech of Allah
So my advice to you brothers and sisters
to learn Arabic
If you want to understand your
profoundly,
master the key
to the Quran,
the key to the sunnah.
And that's the Arabic tongue.
So
Imam Asma
said, we're talking about the meaning of his
tawah.
He said, who are the desert?
And then there was an old man
on the top of the sand dune at
the top of the sand dune
calling us
and saying,
We looked at each other.
What did he mean?
So young boy told them he's telling you,
ascend,
climb, go after him.
So that's the meaning
of.
The Arabs, they say,
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
In those days,
to measure the level of water in the
well,
They put a piece of wood on the
wall of the well,
and the height is known.
So when the level reaches that
piece of wood,
they know exactly the level in the well.
They say
so the water rises
up to the level of the piece of
wood.
So when you are reading now,
the ark of Noah,
That means
the the ark is now
closed
on top of the mountain. Is it the
it is on the top of the
The plant
is now standing, arising on its stem.
He rose above the mighty throne.
What the
a man
asked also, the Armenian
and etymologist.
He told
him That's the meaning of it. He said,
no.
He told him
means to capture, to take over.
And this is what the and
the deviant sects, they are saying.
And to support their argument,
they use a fabricated
as Yasser Al Islam have been saying,
fabricated
poetic verse.
Captured
the Iraq.
They said so they said, it is used
means
to capture.
This is just a concocted
cultic
verse.
So when this man say to Abhinullah
Arabi,
he said, why have woe to you.
How stupid you are.
What does it mean?
The Arabs, they don't say
unless there is an opponent,
someone that is tug of war.
He's taken something from you, and you are
trying to take it back.
Something is taking you from you, and then
you are retaking it and recapturing it.
So
when you say Allah took the throne.
So who had the throne? Who took the
throne from him
so that he has to recapture it and
retake it?
See?
Importance of knowing how the Arabs talk.
All the deviant sects,
name them.
Because
they
they were not pure Arabs,
and they did not master
the Arabic tongue
and understand it as the Arabs
understood. That's why
the famous debate
regarding the creation of the Quran
between Abda Aziz al Dinani and Bichir al
Nelisi,
beautiful debate. You can download it. It's called
Al Haydah on the net,
and you understand
how he finished him and how he exposed
how
Abdazezz Kinani
exposed the ignorance, the compelling
ignorance of bishop al Mabisi
in the presence of the Khalifa.
And he said,
I will debate with you,
with the revelation, with the Quran,
and we should understand it in the tongue
of the Arabs as the
an Arab understands it
because it came down in the tongue of
the Arabs.
In
Arabic.
So the man he
said,
when the man asked him,
The meaning
of
The meaning of
is
not,
something
unknown to us.
Otherwise, the Quran
if you think Allah spoke the Quran and
sent it down and we don't know its
meaning,
then how the will be established against
us when we don't know it?
Allah made it easy to understand it.
So when the prophet was reading the Quran,
they said, how would they understand?
They understand.
Very easy to them. It's in their tongue.
So he
said,
the meaning of the word is is unknown,
is not unknown.
The how, the manner
cannot be comprehended
beyond
our comprehension.
We cannot digest it. We cannot imagine it.
And asking about the manner is an innovation
is misguided.
Is
Then he told them,
I think you are an innovator.
Leaf. And he
chased him away from his.
So this deen, my dear brothers and sisters,
has been completed, perfected.
To add anything to it,
unacceptable.
Unacceptable.
Because it is perfect,
complete.
You understand this.
You, came
to
and said,
there's an in
in your book. Had it come down upon
us, the Jews,
we'd have taken that day as a feast
as a.
Said, what is it?
What is it? He said,
and
the Omar said,
indeed,
it came down on the day of Eid,
on the day of Arafah.
The day of Arafah.
So the deen, my dear brothers, sisters, has
been affected, completed.
So
shun all types of innovations,
all types of,
and don't say,
imam so and so said this, imam so
and so said that.
Imam so and
so, he's not deep.
And this we are we believe like the
others that our imams are invaluable.
But
they don't believe that.
So this imam is mistaken.
It's no problem. He's a human being.
Does Sahaba made mistakes?
He will not make mistakes?
Is he better than Abdullah ibn Umar?
Is he a faqih more than Abdullah ibn
Umar
who used to watch his
inside of his eyes till he lost his
sight?
Because the eye is part of the face,
and the Allah say,
wash your faces.
So he mentioned the whole, and the part
includes in the whole.
Walking up to his armpits.
So he wants to wear ornaments up to
his armpit.
Or Yagaddan
Abdullah eating
snow and saying this is not water.
They're human beings.
So any human being will make a mistake.
So the imam, the Mujd Jahay, if he,
his was
correct, he will be rewarded twice.
And if he was mistaken, he will be
rewarded once.
And we
say,
he got one reward
out of respect.
One reward.
But we should not follow what he said.
So the deen has been complete,
and Allah will only ask us on the
day of resurrection.
How did you respond to the messengers?
Now how not how did you respond to
so and so? Whatever
the prophet gives you, take it, and what
if he forbids you, abstain from it.
So
this
statement, which is so
rampant and common There's
nothing called.
That's
in the deed called
because the
says, any patient in the deed
is
misguided. He did not make an exception.
And now somebody is saying not every bidder
is misguidance.
You have 2 statement.
One statement, the prophet say, every innovation
is misguidance.
Another saying said, not every innovation is misguidance.
Which one you will take? What the prophet
said or what another
person
said?
You choose.
If you say
Imam Khabir said that Bida' can be classified
into 5 categories.
Applying the 5 rulings of the Sharia,
which
is,
far which is,
sunnah,
which is and
which is all the 5 rulings.
If you read in the context,
he is talking about the invented
matters
regarding our mundane affairs
related in the dunya. The bid as in
the dunya, innovations
in the dunya,
you apply the 5 rulings to it.
Inventing nuclear weapons
and mass destruction weapon. What is it? What's
the rule against Sharia? To use it? No.
Haram to use
it. To wipe out humanity.
So this type of
innovation is Haram.
That's why it is used only as to
disturb the animal, but not to use it.
Then the
gave also an example
about
the innovation which is,
permissible
or which is maybe recommended
using the.
So he's talking
about innovations
regarding our
dunya, our mundane efforts,
secular
matters,
not the deal.
Deal,
inventing anything in the deen is haram.
It falls under the haram.
Falls under the haram.
Because the prophet
he said,
whoever invented
anything in our Naktar, in our deen,
it is
to be rejected.
So the innovation, which is haram in Islam,
is to invent in the deen.
Inventing in the dunya,
cars, electronics,
computer,
anything.
That's permissible. And that is what the early
Muslims realized.
They maintained the deen as is.
And in the duniya, they they roll up
their sleeves,
and they use their
intellect.
And they were
pioneers,
and they established a civilization
that has no parallel in the history of
man.
The modern civilization
in Europe, America is based upon
the teachings of our forefathers.
Where our forefathers left, they picked up from
there.
Because when
the Muslims were at the peak,
the
civilization
at the peak,
Europe was in terms of darkness
and illiteracy.
They used to come and study in the
Muslim universities
in Spain.
So the early Muslim,
they they understood
where they should
invent and where they should not.
But the Khalaf the Khalaf,
not Khalaf, the Khalaf.
See, there is Khalaf and there is Khalaf.
The Khalaf
are
the followers of the salaf.
But the Khalaf,
the wicked ones,
the evil ones. So the Khalaf,
they started spoiling the deen
and adding and inventing and adding things
into the deen.
So the Uzza here
is saying,
Also, someone,
posed the question,
how about compiling
the Quran?
That is also innovation in the deed.
You know the meaning of
Kataba. What does it mean kataba?
Does it mean to write?
The original meaning of it?
No.
Doesn't mean to write.
Kataba means to join things,
putting things together.
And the writing called Kitabah because you join
the letters.
So the root, kataba, it denotes the collection.
Besides, the Quran was written
in different materials.
So it was written.
So what is the difference
to keep it in a book form
on 1 on papers
instead of different
pieces of material.
Also, Allah
said that he is going to preserve it.
On top of this,
the famous ruling in the Sharia, one of
the rules of the Sharia,
What
does it mean?
The means
to achieve what is obligatory
becomes obligatory.
There is
goal, objective.
In order to achieve it, the means to
achieve it becomes
the say holds the same ruling
the same ruling
of the objective
and the goal
is applied to the means.
So the goal
is.
The means be to achieve it becomes.
For example,
the salah is obligatory.
Covering the awra
is.
Covering your nakedness is.
So I have to cover my
nakedness,
the hour,
Sit to a hour. I cannot pray naked.
K.
Except under extreme circumstances
something happened to you.
You're,
you are in a remote area,
and you are swimming in the river,
and your clothes
are taken away, and you are in nowhere
and nowhere.
You should not leave your solar.
And the they say, you fear Allah to
the best of your ability.
But under normal circumstances, you have to cover
your Allah.
So now what is the
means to cover the hour?
How can I cover my hour?
By piece of cloth.
That's how I cover my house,
my nakedness.
So now
I cannot pray
without
covering my nakedness.
So I have to buy
piece of cloth
to cover my hair.
So what is the ruling
regarding now buying this this piece of cloth?
It becomes farmed on me. Farmed.
Because it is the means to achieve the
farmed the salah.
Without it, the salah will be invalid. So
the means becomes farmed itself.
So what is the ruling of protecting the
Quran?
It is fun.
You need to protect it.
So what is the means
that will
help us to achieve that goal, the protection
of the Quran,
of the writing?
So the writing becomes.
The writing becomes.
Besides that, Allah called it a book, and
kataba means collection.
Besides, it was written
except in different materials.
So now there is paper
available.
Why not
writing
and compile it in a book form?
So that is
not innovation. That's not
in
the deed.
It is not
inventing something.
Just something
done at the time of the prophet
written in different materials.
In a nutshell, there is nothing called
in the deed.
So
the prophet said,
every innovation is in his type.
That Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
completed
our
deed. So Allah,
by completing the deed, is saying, I completed
my favors
upon you.
And this is the Quran is the biggest
blessing.
And I'm pleased with Islam as a religion
for you.
Please.
Allah has chosen this deed for us, and
he's pleased with that, and he's happy as
a way of life.
To come today and say,
Islam is not applicable
for our time.
It's not Islam is not suitable for the
21st
century.
We need democracy.
We need secularism,
which means
other deen.
You need other deen, Donald Islam.
Allah saying that Islam is the deen that
I want you to follow.
And you say no. Now I follow another
deal.
In Islam,
Allah is the source
for our
knowledge
about halal and haram.
Allah is the Hakam,
the the judge,
the king
who rules his kingdom.
No. This light should not be given to
him.
This light will give it to a human
being.
He will become
Al Hakam.
He will become the legislator.
He will become the maker of laws,
And
we'll
give him that height,
and we'll follow whatever
this body
decide and whatever they make, whatever law
they
enact.
SubhanAllah.
Then we have taken them as lords besides
Allah.
So those legislators
are our,
and we have taken them as lords besides
Allah.
Said?
They have taken their akhbar, their rabbis.
They
pleased
their monks,
their clergymen.
Loads beside Allah,
and Esa the son of man.
This ayah, when the prophet
read it,
Adi ibn Hadim happened to be there,
obstructed.
And he said, oh, prophet of Allah,
we did not take them. We did not
worship them. We did not take them as
lords because that what he understood.
Our
baban, that means we bow for in front
of them, and we worship them.
So that was his understanding.
So the prophet had to correct him
and give him the correct meaning
of taking them as lords. He said,
didn't they prohibit what Allah made lawful?
And they made lawful what Allah made unlawful?
What about you,
and you followed them? You said, yes.
That happened.
They said,
these things are unlawful when they are lawful,
and they said, these things are unlawful when
they are lawful.
Things unlawful, they made lawful, things
lawful, they made
and we followed them. You said, that's how
you worship them.
That's how you worship them.
K?
So now when you raise your hand
to
accept
this law,
you have taken that
person,
your
You're And then you you think you are
a Muslim.
I'm a Muslim.
No. You are not.
You have left Islam.
You have become an apostate.
This is apostasy.
This is ridda.
And may Allah has mercy on the soul
of Sheikh
Abu al Hasan and Nadewe raha ham Allah
who wrote that beautiful book.
Apostasy,
but there's no Abu Bakr.
There's no Abu Bakr to fight this apostasy.
Allah is saying,
complete,
answering all your problems, all your
issues,
addressing all your issues.
The Quran. We didn't miss anything in the
book of Allah.
Nothing is missed.
Either it is
mentioned explicitly
or implicitly.
If you differ
upon anything,
conditional
if
if you dispute.
So
the nakira
coming now in in the context
of a negation
or if statement
or,
negation
or prohibition,
it denotes generality.
And this is
no. No. No. No. So the effect and
So here, there's a negation
that Allah will not wrong anyone,
anyone.
No one will be wronged by Allah.
So Allah is saying
anything,
any small issue
you differ upon.
What should you do as Muslims?
What should you do?
The Internet is not too vishated.
Why Muslim do not apply this I in
their life?
The Internet is activated.
So
do
you want the solution?
You want to settle the dispute?
So do
to Allah and his messenger.
If you really believe in Allah and the
last name,
that's good for you.
And the best
solution and the best
ultimate
solution
for you.
If you believe in Allah and the last
day,
If you believe in Allah and the last
day, whenever you develop a matter, you take
it to what Allah said and the prophet
said, to the Quran and the sunnah.
Now
you accuse that Islam?
Islam
is not applicable.
Islam is not suitable
for our time.
So you are saying, oh, Allah, you don't
know. You don't know.
You don't know
our problems in the 21st century. You don't
know.
So your speech,
your Quran,
your instruction,
your teachings
are
incapable
to address our issues, our problems.
So that's why we'll put the Quran in
the shelf,
and we'll kiss it only for blessing.
So we'll not apply it in our life
and make it dominate, and make it Muhammed
to run our life.
And then you claim that you are a
Muslim.
You need to repent
and turn to Allah
Allah is saying,
and the secularist
and the modernist
and the feminist.
They say, well, I'm not happy with Islam.
We don't want it.
Are you Muslim? Yes. We are. No. You
are not.
You left Islam
long time ago
by saying that.
Last thing,
I am pleased.
And I'm pleased with Islam as a deen
way of life for you, and you are
saying no. We don't want Islam as a
way
for our life.
So what do you want?
We want democracy,
secularism,
modernism.
We want to be free.
No limits.
Ah, okay. So you want the law of
the young girl.
You want to live like the animals.
That's what you want?
You don't want
law that will govern
your behavior, your attitude,
and protect you and protect others
and protect the rights of each other. You
don't want that.
May Allah guide all of us
This deen
has
chosen it for us.
So may Allah guide all the Muslims to
come back to the deen
and follow it.
My dear brother.
If this doesn't
come back
to the deed,
we will remain in this state of humiliation.
No worries.
No worries.
You we will not be respected.
No one will
give us
any consideration,
any consideration.
They will look upon us. They will disdain
us as they are doing it
because we
left the source of the is that the
source of honor.
The belongs to Allah
exclusively
and the believers.
Do not feel weak.
How do we feel today, the?
How do we feel? We feel weak,
inferior.
We look
what do you want me to do? What
do you want me to do?
It's inferiority complex.
Fear.
Shimp.
Hearts are trembling,
not out of the fear of Allah,
out of the fear of a human being.
Allah is saying,
do not feel weak.
Do not grieve.
Not feel weak.
No grief.
Alone.
You are going to have the upper hand.
When when my
our loved man when
we have the upper hand,
when are we going to have the?
When?
If
you are true believers,
Allah says,
he asked only 2 things from the Mu'minin.
He asked only 2 things from the Muslims.
What are these things?
And
you have taqwa if
you are.
Their plotting,
their planning,
their conspiracies,
their think tank,
their planning around the clock
will harm you, not the least.
The evil plotting and planning
encircles
only the planners themselves,
the plotters themselves.
So let us come back to this day.
This is the sword of our.
This is the source for our unity.
And I conclude with this beautiful hadith.
But the
described,
mentioned the symptoms and then the cue.
He said,
when you deal with transaction,
form of transactions.
Interest.
Use it.
And you follow the tails of the cow
because the plow,
the tiller
the tiller
is behind the cow and the ox
when he's plowing the land.
That's how you follow the tails of the
cows,
agriculture,
farming,
or
you
become content
with the dunya.
What are these
and you are complacent and happy
with agriculture.
Today, this word jihad is a stigma.
Oh, he's a jihadist.
Stigma.
Disgrace.
Islam,
the pinnacle of Islam.
The prophet
is saying,
be safe
with safe that you had
before the hour.
Allah. My religion,
my sentinel
is in the shade of my spear.
Humiliation and disgrace
upon him
who disobeys
my command
and acts to the contrary and opposite to
what I'm
I command.
What will happen to us?
He mentioned all these things.
What will happen to the if the
does all these things?
Allah will place on you.
Cast
on you.
Place on your shoulders
humiliation.
To the extent you are changing your name.
My name is Moe.
Moe.
You are afraid to mention your name.
You want to conform to look like them.
When Allah says,
they will not be happy with you.
No matter what you do.
Till you leave Al Islam. If you leave
Al Islam, then they will be so tried.
That's the only thing.
That's what Allah
They will never cease fighting you until they
take you out of your deed if they
can.
So that's why
the prophet said,
This
will
be placed on you,
and you will be in that state of
humiliation.
This humiliation will not be lifted.
Till you go back to your deen.
Till you go back to your deen. May
Allah
take us back to our deen. May Allah
unite our on this deen, unite our heart
on this deen,
and show us the safe path and keep
us tread on the path
the safe path and follow the footsteps of
the prophet
and his companions. Amen.
May Allah
keep us to remain
steadfast
on this beautiful deal
till we meet him,
and find him pleased with all of us.
May Allah forgive us our faults, mistakes, and
ignorance.
May Allah
grant us the beneficial knowledge
and the righteous deeds.
May Allah
reward all of you, my dear brothers and
sisters,
immensely
for your presence, for your attendance, for your
dedication,
and may Allah accept our deeds and your
deeds.
And may Allah
elevate your status
in this world
and in the next.
My apologies. The host can't be here.
First of all, I'd like to
say for this very beneficial lesson
and
for reminding us to learn Arabic and join
the ranks of those who memorize the Quran.
Okay. Can we take, with your permission, some
questions?
Yeah. Sure. Okay.
What does Khalaf
or Khalif mean? I've heard Sheikh Salem talking
about it.
What is what?
Halaf
and Halaf and Halib. Yes. Okay. Halaf
with means
the followers of the
the good followers of
the pre of the salaf. Salaf means
our forefathers.
The calaf,
they're progeny who comes after them, and they
are
pious, righteous progeny,
Khalaf. That's why they say, Khalafim
lihayir is salaf. The best calaf for the
best salaf,
which means
the best
progeny,
late progeny, late generation,
4
of the best generation who preceded them. So
those who preceded us are called our salaf.
That's why we call the Sahaba a salaf
of salaf
because they preceded
us.
K? Those after the 3 generations, they are
called calaf.
Okay? The calaf of the salaf.
But the calaf with the sukoon on the
lam means wicked,
evil people.
So Khalf, who are saying
came after them, Khalf, wicked,
evil generation.
They lost the salah.
They treated their prayers lightly.
Whatever
of and they followed their wings and desire.
K? They will meet the
which means misguided.
And some of them of a series of
is a valley in the hellfire.
Is this clear to the question?
It shall it will be. Please let me
know if it's clear or not.
In your Saturday class,
you mentioned about praying on time.
Is it better to pray alone on time
rather than in a congregation
that delays?
Won't one be risking missing out on the
25 time route
of praying in congregation?
I'm a little bit confused.
Kindly assist me.
Okay. If there is if there is jamah,
of course, the jamah is better.
Jamah is better.
But the hadith that we mentioned, hadith
Hadith,
Hadith,
Hadith, when the father told him, there will
be rulers who'll delay the salah.
So you pray the salah on time,
and then go and pray with them, though
they are praying late.
Okay?
But don't miss your praying your prayers on
time.
But now,
the most of the
congregation
congregational prayers and and the,
they are in the beginning of the time,
maybe after half an hour, 20 minutes, which
is fine
which is fine. No problem. So you go
and pray with the Jannah because,
of course, the reward of the Jannah is
better than the reward of
the when you pray someone,
prayer by yourself as an individual.
Is this clear to the questioner?
Yes.
Someone has started debating with the rafiddah.
The further they go into into speaking to
them, they have found that there is deep
racism
embedded in them towards the Arabs in general.
The question is, did the Persians
accept Islam
reluctantly?
I will keep this aside.
Arabs, Persians, we are Muslims.
But
and our deen is Allah said the prophet
said the Quran and Sunnah.
So why
they don't want to accept the Quran and
the Sunnah?
Why they say the Quran is incomplete
in their books?
And by the way, my advice for your
brothers and sisters,
don't argue with them.
At least and until
they will list down their references,
their books.
K?
I have Bukhari Muslim. I have these are
my books, the books of the sunnah. What
are your references?
List them down.
Put them on the table.
Why?
Because
the moment you mention this what you say
in your books, you say, no. I don't
accept that. I don't believe in that.
And then he reviews the with you. He
will agree with you.
That's why I'm not sure if I said,
you can't debate with anyone, but not those
who are using this takoye
because they lie. And the moment he's put
on the corner, he will agree with it.
So don't waste your time, my dear brothers
and sisters.
Lay your deed
and know their shawba hat, what they have,
study under the ulama
because now what they are doing, they're spreading
their shawba hat
on the net,
and they are paying
on the reverse
someone
especially in in the unis,
someone became a Muslim.
He is an easy pay for them game,
and they start to stuffing his mind
with.
And the poor guy, he doesn't know anything,
and he follows them.
And we are not teaching
the reverse
the correct belief,
that this is the correct belief
they should have.
And if they hear
the following
these things, they should know.
So they should be aware.
They should be aware.
That's why the books of our scholars, the
salaf,
they refuted them.
They are the
the library is full of books refuting
all the deviant sects,
whether they are the, the, the, the, the,
or, etcetera.
So we need to know our. We need
to know our beliefs
so that
our youth, the younger selves, will not be
influenced by the,
by the doubts.
So
if
you discuss or you debate, it should be
first of all, you should try
to make it
limited,
nothing public.
K, because
the,
the might affect
those who
are not equipped, those who are not qualified.
That's why the setup, the they would not
debate with those
deviant,
innovators
in public.
Circle close circles.
Remember
when the
the
some of the
the
came
to,
some
Said, sheku are going to read some ayaat.
He said,
no.
In his circle to the
to to the
gathering. So they want to of course, they
are not going to read.
They
will
read
which means
the
can have more than one meaning.
Though when you put it next to the,
the meaning becomes clear.
So their aim is to create doubts and
put the seeds of doubts in the minds
of those around him.
He said, no.
They said we are going to read some
hadith to you. He said, even have a
a hadith, I will not allow you.
That's why the salaf, they were warning
their followers not to sit with the people
of because
of that.
But our scholars, the,
they refused them.
Read the works. Read
the.
He finished them. He exposed them.
He debated with the head of the Ravivah
at his time.
So
they refuted
all these deviant thoughts, and
their reputations
are
mentioned
in the books.
So we need to read
and educate ourselves.
Is this clear to the question?
Yes,
Sheikh. Clear.
Who is qualified to make ijtihad?
As today, it's very easy to find everyone
that makes ijtihad
and issues issues
fatwas.
So he makes it hard and issues.
So
he's
a. Listen to me, my dear brothers and
sisters.
When there is no iman and there is
no,
there's
no,
then
this person who has no fear of Allah,
he doesn't know
that he's going to be held accountable before
Allah.
He doesn't know whatever he utters
is jotted and recorded
and written down by the Malaika,
and Allah is going to question him.
Don't say something and follow something you have
no knowledge of it.
Art. The hearing, the sight,
the heart, all they will be positive.
The Salaf, the Sahara,
a questioner would come
to one of them
asking him,
an issue question,
he would tell him go to that one.
Go to my brother so and so.
Let's say he comes to our,
go to.
He come goes to,
go to.
Everyone is referring him to another one
until he comes back to the first one.
Why?
Because you sign on behalf of Allah.
When you give the fatwa, you sign on
behalf of Allah.
Has written a book.
Those who sign on behalf of Allah.
And the prophet said,
If you give a wrong,
then the sin is on you, the one
who gave the factual.
That's why,
my dear brothers and sister, is not
confirmation.
It's the fear, the hope
of Allah
used to say,
the fear of Allah.
And the famous
incident,
and this is no.
The delegation that came from Andalusia
al Andalus to Medina
with the
long list of questions
to ask Imam Malik.
The ima,
No one should give federal when Malik is
dead.
He answered only few questions.
The rest,
he said, I don't know. I don't know.
I don't know.
They said, oh, imam, we came from Andalusia
and Andalus, Spain.
What should we tell the people?
And now Malik said,
tell them Malik doesn't know.
Simple.
I don't know.
You want me to say something,
and then
Allah will throw me in the hellfire to
satisfy you?
No. I don't
know. And I want to draw your attention,
my dear brothers and sisters. Don't think that
when we are answering your questions
because we are qualified. No. We are only
telling you what the rule I'm at.
We are. Yes.
It means we are a conduit
to carrying the knowledge of the scholars to
you. That said,
we are loving
little, little students of knowledge.
And every day, we discover our ignorance,
and we are learning, and we share with
you. That's it.
Next question.
How is Salat al Witter performed? I was
in a lecture, and the teacher issued a
ruling that witter is only done in pairs,
22
and so on until one performs
a single
separate rakka.
Yeah. In the
you
as the prophet said,
you perform
the
in 2 stews stews,
and then your witcher with.
So, yes, in 2 stews, but the witcher
can be
can be more than that, can be 3,
can be 9. The
also, he played
the,
So
so there is room. There's flexibility.
So that is
very important to know, my dear brothers and
sisters,
that
the
and the difference between the,
scholars
can be categorized into 3 main categories.
1 type of difference
is haram, and that is to differ
regarding
the fundamentals,
the basics of the deal, what is known
of the deal by necessity.
So to differ on the issues that unknown
by necessity, that's.
To go against
the consensus and the of the, that is.
2nd type of halal difference,
it is obligatory.
We should have this type of halal,
which means to be different from the.
Muslim should be different from the disbelievers.
So you have to be different from the
disbelievers,
and that's what the prophet
was always
emphasizing upon.
Was always emphasizing upon that and drilling
that concept
into the minds and hearts of the Sahaba.
When he arrived in Medina,
he found
the non Muslims in Medina
fasting.
He asked,
why are you fasting to Ashura? They said,
this is the day
Allah delivered
and saved them from the famine.
He said,
we are closer to Moses than than you,
and he told commanded the Muslims to fast.
Then he said to be different from them.
So it is.
Passed.
If I live until next year,
I will pass the 9th and 10th.
He used to comb his hair backward,
Then he found them they comb their hair
the same way, so he parted his hair
from the middle.
So Mas'ud, they said,
this man will not do something that we
do.
Why?
The
was so
strict
regarding these issues
so that we should not follow them.
Should not follow them.
Follow our.
So this is this type of difference
is must be there. Today
today
to the list of hope.
1500 years ago, he said this,
that 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 follow them to the lizard hole.
And this is what is happening to the
lizard hole.
This is the fashion. Today,
you cut your hair like this.
Many do us today. They have.
They shave some of their head, and they
leave the other.
Dua.
So the lizard hope.
You emulate. You imitate
because you feel you are inferior.
You have this
inferiority complex
within you.
So how about they were totally different?
When said in the Salman was asked,
your prophet taught you everything, even how to
answer the call of nature? He said, yes.
And he told us not to face the.
Yes. He taught us everything.
He taught us everything.
The prophet
told the Sahaba
The
prophet used to forbid us from combing our
hair every day,
And sometimes he would tell us, command us
to walk barefoot it
without shoes.
Today, no.
A man, Not a woman. A man. I
will not he doesn't come out because he
sits in,
at the dressing table
and put the facial cream and
this is the the most.
He competes with his wife at the distance
table. Give me a room. Give me a
room. The prophet used to tell his,
don't comb your hair every day
and walk barefoot to
teach them the kushuna,
godliness.
The governor of Egypt
one of
the
Sahaba. Another Sahabi visited him, and he saw
him.
His hair was not combed,
and he was barefooted
without shoes. The governor of Egypt,
Diwali,
said, what is this?
He told
him, our prophet
told us
not to comb our hair every day
and sometimes to walk with our shoes.
And today, I am not combing my hair,
and I'm not wearing my shoes.
So this is the second type of difference
to be different
from the disbelievers.
The third type of divorce,
which is permissible permissible allowed,
and that is to
the issues of.
When they there is room, Allah, out of
his mercy,
he kept certain areas and leeway
in the sharia, a room for the I
tihad.
There is flexibility
to accommodate the new issues
that will come.
So there is this mechanism
flexible mechanism
within
the the the law itself,
and that's where the dilemma differ. Most of
the differences
because they fall under this category.
Alistihad
Al Gia is our sire a sire.
And Sheikh Islam may be in
to
book beautiful book, those who know Arabic. I
don't know if it is translated
in English
or not.
If it's not, it needs to be translated.
Which means
lifting the blame
against
the towering figures of Al Islam.
And he in which he mentioned why scholars,
they differ on certain issues.
So the
is only for the, for the scholars, for
those who are qualified.
And person should be should fear Allah
and should learn his deen first.
Learn
your deen. Learn your deen.
You spend years
to learn your deen,
and then when you become
a students of knowledge
and people ask you, you tell them, this
what this
what scholars are saying.
Not you consider yourself you are a scholar
or you are
equal to them or
they're not.
You are still,
learning your deed,
and we will die
while learning our deed.
Said, The moment you say, I know
everything I know everything,
then you become ignorant. You become ignorant.
Is this clear to the questioner?
Yes.
My question is, I have a niece
who has been
cared for by my mother who's brought her
up as her mother passed away when she
was 7 days old. She's now 7 years
old.
My brother has always given her maternal grandmother
visitation rights from the beginning.
Although they had a fall out when his
wife passed away,
my niece thinks,
my mom is her mom. A while back,
my brother allowed
her maternal
grandmother to take her for a few hours,
but she did not keep the agreement
and refused to return her niece.
My brother had to involve the police,
managed to get back my niece, and this
happened 4 years ago.
But now he's been summoned to appear in
court as maternal grandmother
wants her granddaughter to spend
weekends and holidays with her.
She only recently visited her visited her after
3 years. She hasn't been in her life,
and my niece runs away whenever
her maternal family come to visit.
What should he do? Please,
May Allah reward you with good.
Before I answer this question,
I beg all of you, my dear brothers
and sisters,
to make your questions short,
sweet, to the point.
And if you have a long question,
send it, forward it to me, and you
will get the answer in writing.
So this is my request.
Now this is the problem. This is now
there's an issue, and now it is in
the court.
So if you have a lawyer,
okay, and you are able to
pay for his fees,
do so. K?
So
if the you are entitled
to for the custody.
To be honest, I I didn't get the
the
the full question,
but
if I got it right
okay.
So
if there's a lawyer,
seek
his help and support
on how to
handle this matter because now it is a
case in the court.
May
Allah help you,
and may Allah
make it easy for you.
And if you don't mind
passing this question to me, I will go
through it.
I I will answer the detail.
Next question, please. Okay.
If, she can send the question to me
through the WhatsApp, please.
Okay.
Assalamu alaikum. Is it permissible to rent a
house where the running water and electricity
is stolen?
The
What
they mean is is that stolen? Yeah. The
the
siphoning are off,
stealing it from the electricity
company. You can do that. You can fix
the the meter.
Yeah. I think this happens in
in these 3rd world countries.
Okay? They take electricity. They take water. No.
That's not allowed.
It's
Haram. Cannot use
it.
Whether it is water, whether it's electricity, whether
it is any other commodity
stolen. You know, it is stolen and because
and it
it is,
sold at cheap prices. It cannot buy. It
cannot.
Korea forbids that.
Next question, please.
How did the Sahaba pray over the prophet
when
he left this world?
They prayed individually,
1 by 1.
They were one would enter, pray, and come
out, pray, and come out. That's it.
That's how they prayed.
Next.
Yes. Please remind us of the danger of
the mullet.
The
mullet?
The ding yes. The dangers of of of
the mullet.
The dangers.
The dangers of the mawlid. This is, a
bita,
invent invented by the,
the Fatimaites,
which actually the they are not Fatimaites.
They have nothing to do with Fatima
They
are actually
Abidiyun
when we're Ubed,
and they were not Muslims.
And they
conquered Egypt.
They came from they established
a state
in the west in Morocco,
Madrid,
and then they
started annexing
and expanding their
government and their territories,
and they took Egypt
under the leadership of Yohar Asipoli.
Yohar,
the Sicilian. He from Sicily.
And the moment that they entered Egypt, they
start slaughtering,
slaughtering
the scholars
and cursing the Sahara
on Friday,
Fatima.
And they started building the mausoleums,
the tombs,
and the mauled celebrations,
the birthday
celebration of birthdays.
This is the bida
concocted and made by the,
the Fatimaites, Fatima.
So
it has nothing to do with our deal.
It's not in our deen.
The true love of the is
to follow
his deen, to follow his sunnah.
This is the touchstone.
This is the acid test for anyone who
claims that he loves
the
If you love
Allah, follow me, and Allah will love you.
Follow me.
You don't invent anything in the deed.
You want the Jannah? Follow the prophet
Do what he did and leave what he
didn't. It's very simple.
Very simple. Because the sunnah of the prophet
either
There are 4 types of the sunnah.
The sunnah of
the fall into 4 categories.
Is saying his is
saying
the hadith, the prophet said this, the prophet
said that.
The the actions, he did this, he did
that,
like the salah, play as you have seen,
pray.
The Hajj,
perform your k. Learn your rituals for me.
His approvals,
thinking things happened in front of him, and
he kept quiet
because he would not approve of something wrong,
like eating the
the dub dub it is a is a
type of reptiles.
And it was the sunnah of the he
would ask always. It was his habit.
When there is food, he would ask who
brought this food.
So there was this bulb
was roasted
at the table or
in front of the pub,
and he was about to touch it.
And then he was told this is above,
so he pulled his hand. He didn't touch
it.
Khalil,
the leader of the Allah Anhu happened to
be there.
Immediately, he asked the prophet,
Is it haram or prophet of Allah? I
said, no. No. It's not haram, but doesn't
live in my area. It was brought from,
Najid.
So that's why I don't like it. Khaled
said,
I dragged it. I pulled it
and started eating it in front of the,
and he was looking at me.
So eating the verb is halal because he
kept quiet. I reached salal, and he said
it's not halal.
So this
is approval.
Another example of his approvals,
Hadith Jabir bin Abdullah
He said,
We used to practice
interruptors
while the Quran
was coming down.
Interruptors,
it is
the husband,
when he's making love to his partner,
he ejaculates
outside
with the permission of his wife.
He cannot practice
without
her permission.
If he says no, then he is not
allowed.
So Jabber said,
We were practicing this, and the Quran was
coming down. Was
coming down. The
he knows about it,
and nothing is mentioned about it. So it
means it is allowed. It is
permissible.
So using contraceptives
to keep gaps between children,
it's permissible.
So this is example of approvals.
The 4th type, sunneterkea.
The did
not do this
in spite of the need.
For example,
eclipse pair,
ex eclipse, lunar eclipse, and solar eclipse
happen
during his time,
and he didn't make a dime
for the prayer of the neither the solar
nor
the lunar eclipse.
So we know from this that the sunnah
not to make adhan
for the
salat al kusuf or al kusuf.
If someone today comes and makes adhan, this
is bitter because the prophet didn't make it.
Had it been permissible, he would make
the other. He would have made the other.
He didn't make adhan for the Eid prayer.
So there's no adhan for the Eid.
If someone comes and makes adhan, then this
is bitter.
So the sunnah to leave the Adan for
the Eid, the sunnah to leave the Adan
for the,
eclipse pair. So that is low lunar or
solar.
The prophet
he buried many of the Sahaba.
He did not read the Quran
in the graveyard.
He did not give the
when he put them in their graves.
That this is practiced
in many Muslim countries.
When the body is lowered, the corpse, the
of the deceased,
someone will come down into the grave and
would say to the man,
Oh, son
of so and so, and he would mention
his mother's name, not his father's name.
There are 2 ages who are going to
come to you. Don't be frightened.
They ask you, who is your lord? Say,
my lord is Allah.
My messenger is Muhammad. My deen is al
Islam.
He is teaching, cheating,
teaching teaching him to to to how to
answer the malaika.
This is.
This is innovation.
This is innovation. This is Bida.
The prophet said that he buried many of
the Sahaba. He didn't do that.
Neither the prophet nor his Sahaba.
He didn't read the Quran in the graveyard,
which is practiced today in many Muslim countries.
Especially on 8 days,
you'll see the graveyard or the cemetery
totally crowded.
People are reading the Quran there,
and they are recitals. This is season for
them.
He goes there.
You want me to read?
This this is how you how much you
have to pay. You have to pay this
much.
So these are innovations.
So the things the prophet
didn't do,
have to leave.
Things he did,
we have to follow
his footsteps,
Is this clear to the questioner?
So the mawlid is innovation,
and it should not be practiced. And Muslim,
they have to stop
practicing
this.
And if someone say, we only read them
the, the seerah. You can read the seerah
anytime
anytime.
But to make a special day for that,
k, this is not the sunnah of the
and
the in many Muslim countries.
It is something unbelievable
without mentioning an age.
Hashish is smoked,
sold.
Is
practiced,
freemmingling between men and women
on the day of the Mawlana.
Next question, please.
This is the last question, Sheikh.
Sheikh, if a husband performs
as without
his wife's
knowledge or permission,
what should she do?
A practice interrupt
us without her permission?
Yes.
He disobeyed the because
her consent, her permission
is needed
is needed
because this is her right.
K?
Her right.
And this is the
the
