Shikna, ready when you are.
Yeah. The mic is muted.
Okay.
Let us
begin, Insha'Allah brothers and sisters,
and welcome
to our 65th
lesson of Usulat Falada
with our honorable sheikh, Sheikh Salim Al Hamri.
And today will be our final session of
this
beautiful text,
Usul Al Falathah.
Insha'Allah, from next lesson, we will start with
a new text,
Masa'il Jahiliya.
And Sheikh will give some information towards the
end regarding that.
My
dear brothers and sisters in Islam, today
is our weekly class, the letter of Usul,
and by Allah's grace, we are reaching the
end of this beautiful book.
The author of
says,
So Allah
has
imposed
upon mankind
to disbelieve in false deities
and belief in Allah.
And that's the meaning of La ilaha illa
Allah, and that's the meaning of the negation
and the affirmation
in the kalimah.
You negate first, that means you disbelief in
all false deities,
and then you believe in the true deity,
and that's Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
You cannot
say that I believe in Allah, but I
will not disbelieve in the
false deities.
In that case, your
shahada will not be
valid,
and you will not become a Muslim if
you don't disbelieve
in the false deities that are worshiped
besides Allah.
So that's why
Raish
were reluctant
to accept the kalimah
because they understood the meaning of it,
that they have to
get rid of all the 3 60 idols
and disbelief in all of
them. That's why they said,
How come he made all the the 3
60 idols?
The all the gods that we worship,
all the first deities that we worship
into 1,
and he wants only us to worship 1,
and that's Allah
This is an amazing
thing,
they
said.
So that's why they were
opposing the message of the because
what he calls them that you get rid
of all the intermediaries you set between you
and Allah,
and you worship only Allah.
So this is very important
issue to understand, my dear brothers and sisters,
that you
actualize
the tawhid,
and you worship only Allah
without associating
any partner with him,
without worshiping
any false deity.
Then and only then you become a Muslim,
and then and only then
you actualize to hide in your life.
So Imam Abu Ta'i said
explaining
the meaning of the disbelief in the.
He said,
the meaning of
the, it is actually from the root,
which means to exceed
the limit.
So the meaning of
is someone or thing,
can be human being, can be a thing,
for whose sake a worshipper
transgresses
limit.
So the one who worships this false deity,
which
is because this deity deserves not to be
worshiped,
because the one who deserve to be worshiped
is Allah.
So this worshipper, he transgressed
and crossed the limit
and has considered and has taken
this false deity
as an object of worship,
equating it
to the creator of the heavens and the
earth
by
worshiping
this deity,
calling this deity,
offering sacrifices
to this deity, etcetera.
So it is this deity that the worshiper
transgresses
limit.
Such are those who are worshiped.
Some people,
they ask the people to worship them.
Such as those who are worshiped,
followed, or obeyed.
So the any deity that is worshiped
then that is tahud
or followed
or
obeyed.
And the the
plural of
are many.
There are many,
but their heads,
which means
the main ones, the main
false deities among
different
deities
are 5.
But their heads are 5.
Number 1, Iblis.
May Allah curse him.
So that's the first part
because all evil comes from him.
He's the one who took upon himself
to walk around the clock
to mislead
the children of Adam.
He's the one behind
our father to leave the
Jannah, Adam Alif Salam.
When he misled him,
lied to him,
and cheated him
by convincing him to eat from the tree.
And then when he came down to earth,
he's working
all the time
to mislead
the children of Adam,
mankind.
Because
he committed himself to do that.
That I'm going to mislead them.
I will come from the right,
on the left,
from the before them, behind them.
So I will use all my tricks and
all my ways
to make them
disobey
their creator.
So
no wonder he's number 1.
He's the top in the list
of misleading
humanity
and mankind.
So you need to disbelieve in him.
He's your open enemy.
You have to take care
and be cautious
and never to trust him or listen to
his whispers,
because mainly, he calls his followers.
So he's calling his followers
to be the companions
of the
the blazing fire.
He doesn't want to want to be alone.
So
he stopped
showing his enmity in the Jannah
to our father,
Adam Alishlam.
And in the duniya, this world,
the moment we came into this world,
the moment one of us is born, he
is there next to the midwife.
The moment the baby comes out,
he hits
each one of us
in the belly button.
And that's why every child cries
except Risaab Nurriam alaihis salaam and his mother.
So this is a blich,
and so the the
enmity starts from the moment you enter into
this dunya,
he's there
sparing no effort to harm you.
Until you breathe your lust,
even when you are
dying,
breathing your lust
is there,
trying
to make you
die
not upon the faith, not upon the deen,
not upon Ishmael.
So this is the shaypa.
They said to Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal al
Rahimahu
Wa Ta'ala,
when he was dying
and those around him, they told him, say
la ilaha illallah.
His son was telling him, oh my father,
say la ilaha illallah.
Imam Ahmed
Ibrahim Allah said, laysabad,
not yet.
Not yet.
So his son
said, oh, my father,
what is it not yet?
He told him, listen, my son.
The cursed one
is next to me,
biting his fingers,
saying to me, telling me,
oh, Ahmed,
you managed to escape
from my grip.
I couldn't do anything to you.
I tried my best
to harm you.
I used all my tricks.
I used all my a agents and helpers
and supporters
to harm you,
but you remained steadfast.
So you escaped.
So I'm telling him not yet. I cannot
be sure
that I manage to escape of your
tricks
till I die.
So this what the shaitan does.
From the moment you enter into this world
till you leave it,
he doesn't leave you.
He's always
there. So he is number 1. The first
you have to disbelieve in
the false deities.
The second parhut,
whoever is worshiped while being pleased with that
is worshiped,
they fight,
asked the people to worship him. Like the
pharaoh,
He was worshiped,
asking the people to worship him.
So anyone who's worshiped while being pleased with
that
is happy,
and
he is asking people to do that, then
he is a tahoot
because
he trespassed the limits, crossed the limits, and
he is claiming divinity,
giving himself
divine attributes
that he deserves to be worshiped.
Because the one who deserve to be worshiped
is the creator,
not the creature.
So whoever is worshiped
while
being pleased
with that,
Not
his worship,
and he's not aware of
it and hates it.
Like, the Islam
is worshiped.
The Christians, they worship Isa alaihis salaam.
You cannot say because he's worshiped.
No. Isa alaihis salaam
is against this.
He's unaware
of what the Christians are doing.
That's why when he comes back,
the first thing he would do he will
do
is to break the crucifix,
the curse.
So the prophet said, it's about time.
This is the time. The time is due
for the son of Mary
to descend,
and he will break the cross,
which is the symbol
of the crucifixion
to tell the Christians
that
what you have been worshiping
is is false.
It was not pacified.
It was not killed.
So he will break the cross.
And those who will come to him,
oh, master, in your name will curse out
and giving
out the demons
say, forsake me.
Go. I don't know
you.
Because in that day,
would
not accept from the Christians
anything.
Neither the Christian knows the youth
except Al Islam.
And that is when the ayah will be
the prophecy
mentioned in the ayah
But none
from the people of the scripture, Jews and
Christians,
except that they will believe in him on
that day.
The Jews, they didn't accept him as the
messiah,
alaihis salam.
But in that day, they will
because he will not accept anything from anyone.
Either you become Muslims
or he will kill them.
So he will break the cross,
kill the swine,
this dirty animal,
pigs,
and he will not accept the tax, the
because the
is shaken
from the non Muslims,
and they remain
on their own
faith, on their own belief.
But on that day, no gives you
either you become a Muslim
or he
kills them.
So that's why they will believe in him,
So here you cannot say because he's worshiped
with Pahud because he's not pleased with that.
He's against it, and he was not aware
that he was worshiped.
But anyone else
who's worshiped
and is pleased with that,
like,
Then here's Tahut.
He is Tahut.
3rd one, whoever calls the people to worship
himself,
he's calling them, worship me.
So anyone
cause the people to worship him,
then he's.
He is.
And the 4th one,
whoever
claims to have
knowledge of the unseen
to
know about the right,
like divinal,
fortune tellers,
soothsayer,
all those magicians,
sidekicks,
promised. So anyone who claims
to have knowledge of the Alsina is,
and you have to disbelieve in him, and
you should not
accept
such
deity.
Overclaims
because the knowledge of the unseen
belongs exclusively
to
Allah.
No one knows
the unseen. No one knows what's going to
happen tomorrow.
No one.
And those who
claim,
like
the magicians,
astrologers,
they deceive the people that
something this is going to happen on this
day.
And it happens.
So the people say, yes.
He told us,
and it happens.
So he knows the unseen.
No.
He doesn't.
What really happens
what happened
that Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
when he
decreed
a matter, something to happen.
He talks about it.
He speaks about it.
He informs the Malaika, the angels in heaven
about it.
And this was mentioned authentically.
So when the prophet
he when Allah subhan he mentioned, when Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala
decrees a matter,
decides something to happen,
he speaks, he talks about it,
and when the moment Allah starts speaking,
all the angels
in the 7 heavens,
they become unconscious.
All of them.
The first one to re to regain his
consciousness
will be
Yibreel alaihis salaam.
Allah
will inform Yibreel
about what he decreed.
Allah shall Allah will inform Yibreel about what
he decreed,
and then Yibreel
will inform the angels.
That Allah
decreed that in this day, there will be
earthquake, there will be volcano, there will be
this, there will be
that. So this information
is passed from Gabriel to the inhabitants
of the first 7 7th 7.
Then the angels
start to talk about it, and this information
is passed
to the
in dwellers and the inhabitants
of the 6th heaven.
So the information
is cascaded down
till this information reaches
the Malaika in the first heaven.
Now the east drummers of the jinn,
as the prophet
described them,
they climb on top of each other, the
jinn, till they reach very near to the
first heaven.
But Allah protected
the sky
from the
if troubles
from the djinn
by the shooting stars.
So imagine now the djinn, they are one
on top of the other, and they are
listening.
So they
hear the malaika
talking about
what Allah said.
But
the one who is very next
close to the
to the first heaven,
his seeing shooting star is aiming at him.
So he cannot
pass the full information.
So part of that information
passed
to the one beneath him,
and the shooting star is chasing them.
So the information,
by the time it reached the one who
is on earth from the yin
is only a fraction of a fraction of
a fraction.
Then this piece of information
is giving to the human
soothsayer
or diviner who deals with the jinn.
And the prophet
said,
and he adds to
it 99
lives.
So he mentions
100
prophecies,
100
things that will happen.
Only one happened, which is
the true information
received from above.
And 99
lies, he promises
nothing happened because they are lies.
But, unfortunately,
the people will not recall the 99 lies
that he said and promised that these things
will happen. They will only remember, oh, he
told us this,
which is
which happens
because that what Allah
decree, and that information
is stolen,
okay,
through the
the
who heard it from the Malaika
in heaven.
So my dear brothers and sisters, no one
knows the unseen except Allah.
So do not be
misled by them.
For example, you go
to those
fortune tellers,
and he tells you
about yourself, about your life.
He tells you you are the son of
so and so. You live in this area.
You are this.
Your age is this, and he mentions
your biodata.
And you feel, oh my god.
How did he know?
Very simple
because he deals with the jinn,
and each one of us has a jinn
with him.
We have the qareen,
companion from among the jinn. He's with us
all the time.
So he has the archive.
Everything about you is with him. So he
passes that information
to the
this guy who deals with the jinn.
So he has all the information about you.
That's it.
Not that he knows that I'm seeing. No.
He's dealing with the jinn, and the jinn,
the companion of each one of us.
Each one has a companion, even the prophet.
That's why
our mother,
Aisha said to the prophet,
even you? You have a companion? He said,
yes. But he cannot
command me to to do something wrong.
So
the scholars, they say, means
what?
The companion of the prophet
from among the gen become Muslim?
It's possible.
Or
that I am safe from is evil, so
he cannot
command me to do something evil.
But the companions of all of us, they
are not Muslims,
and we are not safe from the evil.
So this companion, he passes the information
to the
fortune tellers, diviner, this magician.
Also,
some of those magicians and
fortune tellers and diviners,
they claim
that they can make you
communicate
to your
ancestors who passed away, your your your parents,
grandparents,
your father, your mother who passed away.
So they can they will tell you, do
you want to hear them? You want to
talk to them?
Say yes. Say,
come. And then your father will start talking
to you.
Your mother
talking to you.
Her voice. Yes.
And you go, oh my god.
She is my mother.
That's the voice of my dad.
No.
So it's not the voice of your dad
or your mom. No.
The voice of the companion of your mother
and the companion of your father.
Because when we die, my dear brothers and
sisters,
the companion
doesn't die
when we die. No.
Their their life span is very long, so
they remain.
So they fool the people by calling companions.
Some,
non Muslims
who they believe in the
reincarnation.
They say,
when a person dies, his soul
goes into
another being.
And
there are many stories. They said,
our father came to us
after his death
in the form of a young boy,
and he told us. He visited us.
We saw him,
said, I'm your father.
This is my house. This is my room.
This is my wife. This is my son.
This is my daughter.
So they think
that
it is it was really their father when
they don't know that was the shaitan,
the companion
of their father
who comes to them to mislead them
to
mislead them. And this is how the
jinn fools
children of Adam.
So the
unseen
belongs
exclusively
to Allah
So anyone claims
the
knowledge
of the unseen
He is
and
he is not a Muslim.
And those who deal with the shayateen, with
the jinn,
The jinn
will not
cooperate with you,
will not help you,
and facilitate
things for you
until you leave
Islam.
You leave Islam.
When you become a disbeliever,
then
they start to cooperate and help you.
That's why they will ask you to do
something.
They will ask you, for example,
to step of the over the Quran, put
the Quran under your feet,
or throw the Quran in impurity,
or write Quranic verses
in menstrual
blood.
They ask you to do something, Kufar,
or prostrate in front of them,
then they will
help you.
So anyone
claims
that he has knowledge of the unseen,
He's a.
He's a liar.
He's a false deity,
should not be worshipped,
and he deals with the jinn. He deals
with the
jinn.
And the ruling in Islam for those who
interact
with the jinn
is capital punishment.
That is their ruling in Islam.
So now Omar Khattab, he issued a decree
and send it
throughout
the
the state
to all
the governors,
Kill all magicians,
male and females.
Kill them
because the magician is not a Muslim.
Once you started practicing the and
you are dealing with the,
you leave Islam. And practicing the and
witchcraft and
sorcery
is one of the nullifies of Islam.
Takes a person out of Islam.
So the knowledge of the unseen, my dear
brothers and sister,
no one knows the unseen, the,
except
Allah They said, Imam Malik
once
he saw in his dream,
the angel
of death.
So he asked him,
how long
will I live?
How much is,
how much time,
is left
of my life?
So he saw the angel of death telling
him
like that,
and he woke up.
So he asked Abin Sirin,
That is what is mentioned in the books.
He said, this is what is the interpretation
of this dream?
This what I saw.
And he told me like this.
Is it what? 5 days,
5 hours,
5 years?
So
told
him no.
He's telling you
you have asked me regarding
5 things only Allah knows.
So he's telling you, you asked me about
5 things.
They belong to Allah. I don't know that.
I don't know when a person is going
to die except when Allah tells me go
and take his soul. I don't know that.
So the hour belongs to Allah.
No one knows the hour,
when the hour would start.
Yes. Science were giving.
But when? We don't know.
We know the day it will be in
Friday. Which Friday? We don't know.
So the
the Allah belongs to Allah.
And this
is part of Allah.
The one who brings down the rain, Allah.
If someone says now we can see
the clouds and bring the rain,
You are not the one who brought it
down.
Who caused the evaporation?
Who caused it to condensate?
And many times,
they tried and didn't came.
So the one who sends the rain is
Allah,
and there is an angel who is in
charge of the rain,
How many times the forecast said we are
going to have
heavy
rain tomorrow,
and the clouds are
very black,
full of water
on top of our heads
and no single drop.
And we see the thunders and we see
the lightning
and no one drop of water
because the one
who's in charge of that
got sold not.
The rain comes over your head. It passes
over your head, the clouds over your area.
It's not meant to fall in that place,
somewhere else.
So Allah,
the hour belongs to him.
He's the one who sends down the rain.
He knows what is in
inside the wounds. If you say now by
the
the the scanning, they can know the what
is in the womb.
That is not the meaning.
Who told you
the meaning is to know what is in
the womb,
girl or boy?
Science cannot tell you
this child,
how long is going to live?
This child, is it going to be pious
or impious?
Obedient or disobedient?
Muslim or Kafir?
So Allah knows everything about that child which
no one
can know about it.
Is this child going to heaven or going
to *?
That's
the 4th one.
No one knows what he's going to earn
tomorrow.
No one
knows.
And the 5th,
and no single soul knows
where,
which land, where I'm going to die.
We don't know.
If you go to the graveyard
and see the people there,
This one was born
in India,
and he died in UK.
What brought him to the UK?
His to
search for his
as the
said, the writes someone's
provision,
okay,
to be
found in this place. He sent you to
that place
to work there, earn your livelihood there, and
you die there.
So the knowledge that I'm seeing belongs to
Allah.
And the 5th,
tarut,
whoever lose my other than what Allah has
revealed.
You replace the law of Allah and substitute
it by man made law.
Oh, Allah's law,
you are not
applicable
to address our problems.
We'll substitute
the law of Allah
by the English law, the French law,
man made law.
A law that is full of loopholes.
A law that is full of defects.
A law that will not
solve the problems,
the law that will not prevent crimes,
and we get rid of the law,
the divine law,
which is perfect,
if it is implemented,
security will be established,
peace will be established,
equality will be there,
and justice will prevail.
So whoever
replaces
a large law
by man made law,
then
he has crossed and test passed his limit
because that is not his right.
That's not your right.
You are a human being.
You are abd servant,
but the shaitan fools you.
So you think now.
You can legislate.
You can make halal and haram.
You make things
lawful and unlawful.
You equate yourself to the lawgiver,
then
you are doomed.
And you became.
And people should not listen to you,
and people should not follow you.
Because if they follow you and listen to
you, then they worship you.
You become their deity.
As Allah said,
They have taken
their
monks
and the rabbis
as loads besides Allah,
the Jews and the Christians.
So when the prophet
read this ayah, Adi ibn Hati, who was
a Christian before, he said, oh, prophet of
Allah, we did not worship them. We did
not take them as lords
besides Allah.
He thought that
we did not
prostrate and worship them.
So the prophet explained
to him
how they worship them.
He said, didn't they,
the monks and the rabbis and the monks,
didn't they
make the a lawful, something
haram, they made it haram?
And
the lawful, a lawful, something halal, they made
it halal.
And you followed them
when they did that for you? You said
yes. So that's how you worship them.
That's how you have taken them as lords,
and they became their
your deities.
You worship them.
So this is the 5th category.
And that's what Allah mentioned
as
in the ayat
256 of
There's no compulsion,
a religion.
Why?
Verily,
the right path has become distinct
from the wrong path.
So whoever disbelieves in the and
believes in Allah. First, you disbelieve in the
as explained,
and then believes in Allah, then he has
taken hold
of the firmest
handhold
that will never break.
And Allah is the all hearer,
the all knower.
And in the hadith,
So that the
said, oh, messenger of Allah, tell me of
an act, Amal,
which will take me into paradise and will
keep me away from the hellfire.
He
said, you have asked
me about a great matter,
yet it is easy
for whom
for whom Allah makes it easy.
Someone make to make any matter easy, he
makes it easy.
Worship Allah
without associating any partners with him,
question number 1,
establish the prayer,
maintain your prayers,
pay the zakah,
fasten Ramadan,
and make the pilgrimage to the house.
Then
said,
shall I not
guide you towards the means of goodness?
Fasting is a shield.
You know, the shield,
the warrior
warrior used
to protect himself
from the arrows
or the souls.
So fasting is a shield because it will
protects you from the desires,
because fasting
weakens
the sexual drive.
That's why he the
prophet recommended
fasting
for the
young,
men and young women,
the shabab, the youth.
They encourage them to get married. If they
cannot
afford
getting married, then they should resort to fasting.
Which means
it acts like as if someone is castrated.
So the desire
is reduced.
Fasting is a shield.
Charity
wipes away sin as water
extinguishes fire.
This is the the virtue of sadaqah.
When you give sadaqah,
you put out
the
heat of the sins.
You extinguish
the
heat of the sins you've pigmented
and committed
as water extinguishes
fire.
So my dear brothers and sisters,
we should develop this
habit of giving sadaqah on daily basis,
and never trivialize
the sadaqah you give out,
but get used to that.
Just make it your habit.
A
slave,
a servant will be in the shade of
his charity
on the day of introduction.
So the reward of the charity will be
materialized
and will form shade for you when the
sun is above the hedge. So the more
charity you give out, the more shade you
are going to have.
So
keep spending.
And paying of a man in the depths
of the night, this is another
good deed one should do to Hajj.
You you leave the bed, the warmth of
the bed,
and you take wudu, and you start praying
before Allah.
And
praying at night is the real
honor of the Mu'min.
Then He, so,
recited,
those who forsake their beds,
They cannot relax on their beds
to invoke their load in fear and hope,
and they spent charity in Allah's coast out
of what we have bestowed on them.
No person knows what is kept hidden for
them of joy
as a reward for what they used to
do.
So that's to say the highest 16 to
17.
Then,
said,
shall I not inform you
of the head of the matter,
its pillar and its fig?
I said, yes, oh,
said,
the head of the matter
is Islam,
and Islam is the head of the matter.
And the pillar
of this Islam
is the salah.
If you don't pay, you're not a Muslim.
So the covenant between us and them is
the salah. Whoever believes it, he has
disbelieved.
And its peak is the jihad.
The peak and the pinnacle
is the jihad.
The jihad is the pinnacle of the deen
of al Islam
fighting
in the cause of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
Then he said,
shall I not tell you of the foundation
of all of that?
I said, yes, oh.
So he took hold of his tongue and
said,
restrain this.
Control your tongue.
Control
your tongue.
I said,
oh, prophet
we will
will we be taken to account
for what we say with it?
Are we going to be held accountable
for what we say?
Said,
may your mother be bereaved of you.
May your mother lose you.
This is
an expression,
which is similar to woe to you. What's
wrong with you?
May your mother be bereaved
be bereaved
of you, oh mu'ad.
Is there anything that throws people into the
hellfire
upon their faces,
that's how they fall into the hellfire,
all in their noses,
except the harvest of their tongues
because of what they
uttered and what they
pronounce.
May Allah
save us from the evil of our tongues.
I mean,
then the author say,
and Allah's in his best. May Allah send
his peace and blessings
upon the
and his family
and his companions. This is the end of
the 3 fundamentals.
May Allah
accept from us
our deeds,
and may Allah make our deeds
pure
purely for him
and sincerely for him.
And may Allah
forgive us
all false
and mistakes
and ignorance,
and may Allah
keep us to remain steadfast in this beautiful
day.
May Allah
make us die upon the.
May Allah make the last word we
And may Allah
his mercy and elevate
the status
of Imam al Sheih Muhammad.
May Allah
reward him immensely
for all his efforts, for all his works.
I
mean,
and
may
Allah unite our and may Allah unite our
and may Allah reward all of you, my
dear brothers and sisters,
immensely,
for your patience, for your dedication,
and for just attendance.
So
this brings us to the end of this
book,
and coming week, we are starting another book
by the chief,
Muhammad
which is
the issues of the days of,
days of ignorance.
So
you will be patient
as you are you you were patient
to go through the entire text. So
we'll go through the
the new text together
if we remain alive.
For
being patient with us.
It is rather the opposite way for being
patient with us throughout this amazing journey,
going through this text in great detail,
which we have very few nowadays
where
the knowledge is becoming weaker,
shorter,
one day course, 2 hour course.
It has been a a really blessed
time,
and we ask Allah
to make this heavy on your scales
and to allow us,
to remain in good health, Insha'Allah, so we
can benefit from you further.
Sheikh Fieullah, we'll start the question and answer
time now.
Okay. We have received the first question. If
there are any other questions, please send them
in fast,
and
we will take them.
The next question.
You can also ask the questions verbally. Please
do so, and this is the time to
clarify anything that you may have confusions on,
before we go on to the next text,
So if you do have any questions, please
send them in.
Yeah.
Just before we start answering the questions,
I have a small request, my dear brother.
Go throughout your notes.
Now you know all
the
the,
the talks are recorded.
You can listen to them.
And now
share this knowledge with your family,
with your friends.
If you want to retain the knowledge,
teach it to others, share it with others.
Okay? So
go
through your own your notes and listen to
the talks again and again.
This is very beautiful
book, the Tawhid,
and also the one before it, the kashfash
shawaha,
removal of doubts.
Because, unfortunately
unfortunately,
Muslim nowadays,
they don't pay attention to the issues of
Aqidah, the issues of Tawhid.
So this is my request from all of
you
to
go through the
the the course,
the cash for shubhad, the removal of doubts,
and the the fundamentals.
Yes. First question.
1st question, Sheikh.
If a disbeliever gives a piece of paper
to a Muslim and tells them to write
down
what gifts they want for Christmas,
is it haram for the Muslim to fill
out the form and to accept these gifts
on a different day
other than
when they have their Christmas party
and they do not participate in the Christmas
party?
No. It's not allowed whether it is a
Christmas party or any other time because the
whole thing is about
the commemorating
this,
and celebrating this,
this reed of feast.
And, you know, Christmas is is heathen.
It's the
the feast of the heathen,
pagans.
K? So the Romans before
king Constantine
or Constantine
became Christian,
he used to celebrate
it. So he brought it along with him,
and the Christian, they accepted that.
So Christmas has nothing to do with the
birth of Isa Alaihi Salam.
Isa was not born in December, go to
Jerusalem and Palestine in December, and it is
should not all over.
K?
And when Isa was
born,
the date bounties were bearing fruit.
So there's no connection at all.
So when you celebrate Christmas, you are actually
celebrating
the feast and the Eid of the pagans,
the heathens.
So we, as Muslim, we don't accept anything
like that.
Is this clear to the question to the
questioner?
Sure. It is clear, Sheikh. We go to
the next question.
Assalamu alikum.
May Allah reward Sheikh for sharing the beneficial
knowledge.
What is the sunnah way to practice while
we take medicine? Is it right to say
Bismillah al Shafi?
To
say Bismillah,
there's nothing wrong with that when you want
to take. And
if you say, oh, Allah, you are the
healer, not a medicine.
So
this is only a cause. So you are
my healer.
You are the healer, so heal me.
Cure me from this. There's nothing wrong with
that. Next.
Next question, Sheikh. My school has Quran recitation
every morning and before starting
an assembly.
Is this bidah?
No. It's not bidah.
They just be you begin the day by
listening to the the speech of Allah.
What a beautiful beginning.
The next question, Sheikh.
May Allah reward you immensely
with good in
this world and the next. Sheikh,
I sometimes hesitate to give charity to some
people. Most of the beggars in my country
are professionals.
What should I do?
You should
search and look for the
poor poor families.
K?
There are many people who are poor, and
they don't ask. Those are the ones we
should look for them
and
and give them our,
not those professional beggars who are on the
on the streets.
Next.
Sheikh, that was our
last question. If you'd like to conclude,
Looking forward
to seeing you in the coming
class. May Allah
reward all of you. May Allah bless you.
Bless your family. Protect you. Protect your family.
Elevate your status in this world.
And in,
and may Allah
forgive us our faults and mistakes and ignorance.
And may Allah keep us to remain steadfast
in dispute from deen, and may Allah bless
us with the beneficial knowledge
and righteous deeds. I mean,
till we meet, I leave you in the
lost company
and protection.
