Qudsi
that prophet Muhammad
narrated,
from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
that hadith
was narrated
by Imam Musteb.
The hadith
it's been wrong hadith, but we're gonna take
the first sentence
of this hadith today
to be aware
of the situation
of
oppression.
Allah
says,
oh
my servant or all my slaves,
I have forbidden
the oppression
for myself,
all injustice
for myself.
And I have made it forbidden
among these youths.
So
So, do not
oppress
one another.
Do not deal with the injustice
between one another.
This is the first sentence.
The hadith
has 10
sentence
or 10 commands.
We're gonna talk about the first
command
today
about
body needs.
To be aware of the situation
and for some of us to wake up.
If we
resist
to support oppressors,
we have to
wake up
and we have to give up,
and to pay attention
for
the rest of our life.
Because
it belongs to Allah
He is the creator.
He is the owner of the heavens and
earth,
include ourselves.
We are belongs to Allah, all of us.
No one has right to ask
Allah why you did that or why you
did not do that.
No one is allowed to ask Allah
about what? Whatever he will do.
And they will be
asked
in the day of judgement about their decisions,
about their actions, about their works.
And even
though
Allah,
no one can ask him,
but he,
almighty Allah,
forbids
unjustice
for himself.
And he explained
in many verses of the Quran,
Your lord will not
wrong anyone,
even Muslim or non Muslims.
This is
the rules that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala applied
for everybody.
There is no one.
In other verse.
You know,
is now
dealing with
the oppression
for the slaves.
Even the master can
tell his
slave to do whatever he wants. Even for
the employees,
if you work for the company or for
the hospital
and
you take your salary from them and you
have to do whatever they requested you.
You cannot say no. I don't I don't
agree with this one. I will do it
in my way. You will be fired.
There is no joke with this one. Even
if you work for somebody,
I'm not telling about
you will be a slave for for somebody
because there is no slavery anymore.
But we are slaves of Allah
All of us.
We cannot do something
against his will, almighty
Allah. Even with this condition,
he did not unmal
and justice for
himself.
If you do good,
for sure, if you have sincere intention, Allah
will reward you.
If we did bad,
it's up to Allah
to punish us
or to forgive us.
It's up to him.
Now when we come to the
first sentence of the hadith, Potsit,
all my
slaves and I have forbidden
injustice for myself.
And I have made
it forbidden
against,
amongst you.
So
do not deal with the injustice
or with the oppression.
Do not oppress
one another.
Why?
This is the rules
that
made
when he
created the heavens and the earth.
Allah will support.
The state
is dealing with that justice
even if they are disbelievers.
Subhanallah.
It's amazing.
And Allah
will not support
the Islamic state
if they are dealing with the injustice.
It's clear.
Rules for everybody
to acquire
the religion of Islam.
Allah the religion of Islam. Even if Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala, he's the owner and he's
the creator
and he is the sustainer
and he can do whatever he wants.
But Allah
taught us,
even if I can do that,
if I'm able to do that, but I
will not do that.
We need to learn from Allah
When somebody of us
has some power
or some will,
subhanallah.
They abused the power that Allah gave them.
They waste the money that Allah granted them.
They raised the children that Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala gifted them
a wrong way.
And
some some people will say why Allah did
not listen to my subjection?
And we have to look at ourselves first.
Even Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
did not allow himself to deal with the
injustice between
himself and his servant
and his slaves.
And he has right to do whatever he
wants.
But Allah
is telling
us, don't do that.
Because
our power is limited.
Allah has no Allah has no limit at
all
for his knowledge,
his power,
but we are limited.
And why when we have a chance
to wrong other people, we take advantage of
everything?
Why?
Why when we have the chance
to support oppressors,
we stood up and
the
the king.
And Ibn Simek told him, no. You will
not be among
the helpers of oppressors
but you will be among the oppressors of
themselves.
He said, why?
He said, because
you do something
to support their kingdom.
You're doing something
to support
their pillars of the kingdom.
But the one who will be among the
supporters of Abalini,
the ones that you part
the clothes
and the garment from them,
you part the nettles
and the thread from them.
But you are a band of Walimina and
Fusavo,
and we have to be very careful.
Some of us might say, you know, I
support that person or other person,
and we do not know if they are
staying in the truth or not.
They are staying in the
the the correct path or not.
And look how prophet
the situation of those people.
When you say a word
by your tongue
and you might you might really did not
pay attention for the word that you said.
And the
Nabiha Salam mentioned that person will stay in
her fire for 70 years.
In
the
other hand,
You said the one word,
but you you you was lucky that Allah
subhanahu wa'ala helped you out and said good
word.
Even you did not pay attention for the
word that you have said.
And Allah will elevate him or her
in paradise.
You know?
It's up to us.
When we do something in our life,
we have to know. We will be
rewarded
or we will be punished
in every single world.
Whatever we have in our mind, in our
chest,
as long as we do not express
what we have in our mind, no harm.
But since we will
take action
physically
or by our tongue,
now we have to be very careful.
We have to pick up the words that
we will
tell.
Allah says,
Tell my servant to choose
the best world among the best
because
shaitan And
now when we
raise our voices
to support
some criminal people
or some dictatorship.
Why?
What is the benefit for us? We have
to really wake up.
Did they pay the salary for us?
Did they pay the food for us and
and our families? No. But why we supporting
them
directly or indirectly?
You know our life, it's not a joke.
It's very
a tricky
way.
We do not know if Allah
will end our life with the Islam or
not.
But you know, whatever we practice
in our life,
for sure, we will end our life with
that,
the same situation that we used to live
in our life.
It might have some exceptions
for some people because Allah knows about what
they have in their hearts. We have no
relation with that because we know nothing.
But
the rule
for all of us
or most of us,
if we practice Islam in our life,
for sure
we gonna die as a Muslims.
But if we were faking
in our life,
showing up in front of other people,
for sure we will end our life with
the the same
thinking or the way of thinking that we
had
before.
Prophet Muhammad
mentioned hadith. It's very scary
before death, a little bit,
he changed his mind,
and he does
the bad deeds.
And
anyone of his servant.
This is
up to us again.
And the resignation of the hadith will explain
the confusion that we will have because how
come that the person
is doing all of good deeds in the
for his life and before death,
few days or few hours or few months,
he will do bad deeds
and he will end his life with a
bad condition?
And other narration that prophet Muhammad mentioned,
For what can people see?
But between him and Allah
is very bad. He's not good at all.
And
If we practice Islam, nariel Islam, to stay
firm in our religion,
not to support
oppressors
and bar me and wrongdoers?
For sure, insha'Allah,
that
will help us out to die as a
Muslims.
A has
2 kind of bond.
A pressure has 2 kind of
oppressors.
The first one
to do
injustice
against yourself.
If you
disobey Allah,
if we did disobey Allah, this is, you
know, full for ourselves. Or if we do
not obey Allah, because if we remain silent
and do not worship Allah, this is by
itself,
Masiyyah.
Worship Allah,
this is by itself,
Masiyyah.
Wrong the doors. And some some people will
really
exceed
his level of Masiyyah
to do wrong
actions because
we have do and do not do.
For do, some people will not do it.
They are sinners.
And
the worst condition
for do not do, some people will do
it.
And this is the highest level of sin.
When you do wrong against yourself,
this is really very bad situation.
But it's still much much bigger much much
better than the one who one who will
do wrong
against other people around him, which is the
second kind
of oppression,
to do wrong against
other people around you.
It could be
by your action
or
by your tongue
or by your money or whatever.
And I'm talking from
just
the law of human beings.
If they are willing to have a peaceful
of mind, to live an an easy life.
This is for everybody.
There is no discrimination
between anyone
of the servant of Allah
You do have a right,
and I do have a right.
And both of us
will watch
ourselves.
I should not deal with the transgress
toward your right, and you should not
deal with the transgress against my right.
And everybody
will will be happy in this life.
But
when we have some people, they have power
or they have money or they have authority
and
they force people
directly or indirectly.
And some people will listen to them. And
some people will raise their voices. We are
supporting
those people. They are good. And they knew
they are bad.
And there is no excuse for them.
Because Nabi sabalahu alaihi wa sallam mentioned very
amazing hadith.
Sayyidushuhada
who is the master
of martyrs,
the uncle of Rasulillah
salallahu alaihi wa sallam, Sayyidna Hamza.
And
also
the other example after Hamza,
may Allah be pleased with him and all
the companions of
the one who stood up
on front of
the dictator,
the oppressor
to say you are wrong.
They said, no.
The story did not finish yet.
And
the oppressor will kill him,
and he will be a martyr.
He will be shahid.
And this is the best shahid
in the sight of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
And we we really we need to wake
up.
We cannot
change our situations
unless if we do something.
What happened
from pharaoh
against Moses and his people?
They did something
and they did
whatever he can.
And even they were not able
to stop fail.
And what happened after that? Allah
supported Musa
home?
How many people they have that believe of
Musa alaihis salaam?
Because what will happen?
Nothing.
If Ahmad decide
for us
to be careful
Even if we run away,
we will be killed.
If Allah decide for us to die on
our beds,
we gonna die in our beds
because
our life and our
actions, our provision
has been
written
in the holy tablet,
50 1000
year before
heavens and the earth.
And this is hadith of prophet Muhammad Why
we hesitate?
Why we do not say no for oppression
or for injustice?
Just say it.
At least, if you cannot
say it, and this
is the excuse from Allah
for the one who is not able to
say no
for the wrong action.
Just remain silent.
Deny by your heart.
And this is the lowest of iman.
To change it by your hand
if you are
able to make it, if you are authorized
to make it by your hand,
or by your tongue to say no, this
is wrong, I will not support injustice,
or at least to say by your heart.
To say
To say, Allah, this is something bad. You
you do not agree with it, and I
will not agree with it.
But the
the problem,
when we see some people,
they knew this is wrong. They knew this
is our body need, and they stood up
to support them.
For what?
They will regret,
but it will be too late for them.
But for us, alhamdulillah,
there is no pressure on us.
We have free will
to support
right or left,
to support
Zayd or Abid.
But follow your heart
and follow
the direction that Allah gave
us.
Allah
will not wrong anyone.
Just, we we have intention to distribute
the medals and the
the prices for
the winners of the Quran.
But, I figured out, there's a lot of
parents out of town.
And just
Friday after the 2nd Qutba right now,
to give the parents and the students
a chance
to attend and truly,
share the joy
that we had in the month of Ramadan.
Prepare yourself
and your, child or your children
for next Friday.
