Hadith
that prophet Muhammad mentioned.
That hadith,
it will teach us
how
to be wise
and how to be righteous.
It will teach us
how to watch ourselves
all the time,
not to
cross the limit of
and do something bad
in our life.
The hadith that I have today,
that prophet Muhammad
mentioned, among the awards to people obtained
from the first
prophecy
of,
if
you feel no shine,
then
do
what you wish,
or do what you like,
or do what you want.
If you feel no shy,
or if you feel
no shame
when you do something
and you do not really feel a shame
in your heart.
And this is
even if
we have some people agree
that a certain action is allowed,
it will never change
the definition of this action.
Still bad.
Bad is bad,
and good is good.
Even if you find everybody around you dealing
with the bad actions as a good action,
it will never change.
This is what I try to explain today.
Chinese
and modesty,
it's a branch
of faith
like prophet Muhammad
mentioned,
said.
Faith
contains
70
branches.
The highest branch is
to say there is no one has right
to be worshipped
but Allah,
and the lowest branch is to remove
the harmful
things
away from the road.
Could be stones,
could be stakes, could be branches of trees,
or just
to move it away, not to harm people.
And he mentioned
is a branch of faith.
Why he choose?
By the way, there is no a single
word in any other language
to translate the word of Haya.
Haya
means
something will prevent the person to do something
bad
between him and Allah
This is hayat.
And the hadith that I mentioned
look like all the prophets and the rescingers
of Allah
came with the same sentence
to their people.
Like when they came
with that sentence,
worship Allah and do not associate anyone with
him as a partner.
This is the main message, all the prophets
and the messenger came with.
And the second
message,
all the prophets and the messenger came with.
That
modesty
or
shyness
is good.
Because
Khalif
mentioned, what people
obtain
from
the previous
message from all prophets and the messengers is
if
you feel no shame,
then do whatever you want.
Do it do whatever you wish.
Nothing can stop you.
And the the hadith has 2 meaning
or 2
interpretations.
The first meaning,
it's look like threatened
from Allah
Like when you tell your child
and you are a very powerful
and tell told your child,
if you do not child, do whatever you
want.
It's not
mean you can do whatever he wants. No.
You threaten him. You cannot do something wrong.
And this is the result
of the haveith.
If the person choose to do thing wrong
and he has
no shyness,
he's supposed to know that Allah will punish
him
sooner or later.
This is the first meaning. The second meaning,
if you have no shyness,
if you have no modesty,
and
you can do whatever you want after that
because nothing will stop you
to do
something bad
if you don't care about Allah.
Because
most of our bad actions,
we have done
when we stay alone somewhere else.
But if we
don't care about Allah,
and this is the reason why prophet
Muhammad described the believer
with this description.
And he said,
By Allah, the believer will see
his mistake
or his sin
as if
he's standing
underneath
the mountain,
and he's afraid
if the mountain will destroy him.
This is how it's really heavy for a
believer to do something bad.
And the hypocrite
or disbeliever
will see his mistake
or his sin as a fly
stand on his nose.
And he wave by his hand
to
force the fly to go away.
And he will do the same mistake
time after time after time. Nothing will stop
him. But the believer,
he will be
afraid. Even a minor sin,
he will not be able to do it
because he knows that apostle is
seeing him, is watching him.
One day, prophet Muhammad was
passing
by
a companion from Al Ansar,
from helpers of Rasulullah
and he was advising
mean an imam.
Modesty,
it airs from
faith.
If the person has no modesty,
he has
incomplete
faith.
If the person doesn't care about
Chinese
and modesty,
he has no correct Islam.
Don't ask me how many rak'ah that you
pray every day
or how many just that you recite from
the Quran everyday.
But ask me,
are you really shy
to do something wrong when you stay alone
somewhere else
by yourself, no one around you?
And this is the good sign.
If you really care about Allah
and you will not be able to disobey
him
even if you stay alone by yourself,
this is very
good sign for
person.
Also, prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam mentioned,
at Haya ulayati
ila bifayf,
subhanAllah,
modesty does not bring anything except goodness,
majesty
is
The majesty, all the majesty
is
good.
And when we look at
prophet Muhammad salallahu alaihi wa sallam, how the
companions
describe him,
They used to say,
Do you know do you know what that
means? Prophet Muhammad salallahu alayhi wasallam
was more shy than a virgin
in her
seclusion.
What that means? Seclusion?
Seclusion
which is a private place for a virgin
daughter.
You know? She might stay at her house
on front of her. Her family members,
not to cover her hair or her hands
or arms or but there is limit
to cover her body.
But when she stay by herself
in her own bedroom,
she might uncover
extra places of her body.
And when they describe the prophet Muhammad he
was
how he used to be shy.
And they said
they said
describing the prophet
And they can see if he disagree with
something.
You know, you can see the red color
on his face, salallahu alaihi wa sallam, but
he didn't say anything.
They noticed
that prophet
Muhammad disagreed with something
because out of shyness, he doesn't like to
put somebody down.
And the companions, they learn how to figure
out if Prophet Muhammad agrees
with them or not.
And the hadith
that I started my speech today,
just there is a story, a mainstream story
for all of us to learn.
There is a man, his name
Abdul Wahid nimaslaman
al
Khan Abi.
He used to live in Basra, in Iraq.
And he used to drink alcohol,
used to deal with all major sins.
And he has friends, bad friends,
in bad environment
around him. And he choose for himself.
Anyway,
one day he was sit he was standing
in front of his house waiting for his
bad friends to come, to go somewhere.
And there is a man, his name, Shoaib,
ibn Hajjad.
He was riding his donkey, and he has
a lot of students walking behind him,
a big group of people.
And he was
just kiddies.
And he stopped the donkey and he said,
who are you?
He asked
a big chair.
And the ceiling around him, they were surprised.
Don't you know who's this Muhammed?
His job, Muhammed? Muhammed, the narrator of a
hadith
from Rasulullah, peace of for the complete chain.
And he said, what are you doing?
Even he doesn't know
mohaddif means.
And they told him, he narrated the And
they told him, he narrated the ahadith from
Rasulullah He has the chief, he has the
senate. And he told him, you know, teach
me a hadith of Rasulullah. And Sharba said,
no, you are not able to receive the
ahadith of Rasulillah.
He looked at his
image, subhanahu wa. You know, he was drunk.
Even he cannot stand
correctly. And he said, I cannot
give the knowledge of Rasulullah to
somebody like you.
And he took his nani and he said,
if you do not teach me the hadith
of Rasulillah in front of everybody in the
middle of this dream, if you do not
teach me the hadith of Rasulillah,
I will harm you by my life.
And he was a smart shaykh,
subhanAllah. Among
thousands of a hadith of Rasulillah, they choose
1 hadith.
The hadith that I started my speech today.
And he said,
that shayf
told, Aba Sheikh and told Aba Sheikh until
came to me, that prophet Muhammad said,
what we would obtain
from the words of the greatest messengers and
the prophets,
if you
feel no shame,
then you can do whatever you
wish.
And the the word came into his heart,
and he
his his face was
changing.
And he went back to his house,
told his mom, if my friends came to
ask about me, tell her he's not here.
The person changed 100%.
And he
had intention
to go somewhere else to learn the knowledge,
and he asked him, who is the most
knowledgeable
scholar
now?
And they
directed him to an imam Malik in Madinah,
the city of Rasulillah
And he went to an imam Malik,
imam Malik. And he learned from al imam
Malik,
he tab al Muwattaq,
the book of al Muwattaq.
This is the book that the imam Malik
wrote about the ahadith of Rasulullah
after
few years,
he choose to go back again to his
own town,
and he came back.
The first action
he was
planning
to go to ask about Sheikh Sharban,
the Muhammed.
Now he knows Sharba very
well. But when he came back to Iraq,
to Basrakh, he found Sharba passed away.
Subhanallah.
And
it could have been a Hadith,
The only one hadith
from all the south thousands of the hadith
of Rasulullah.
He only narrated 1 hadith
from the way of
ibn Hajjat.
Continue to prophet Muhammad
And not what happened?
You know? He took over the place of
Shurba, and he become
Muhammad. He become the narrator
of a hadith after Shaba passed away. When
we look at his condition
in the and
look at his condition now,
you will be surprised.
And this is why when we deal with
our children,
they are excused.
Give them chance.
Leave the door
open
for them to go back to Allah in
any time. Do not close the door
of Do not shut the door of
Do not shut the door of Mercy
of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, on front of
them.
And this is what we need to learn
today,
to have modesty
and to have challenges
in our hearts,
to prevent ourselves
from something bad that Allah
doesn't like.
Even if the people see see us or
not, it doesn't matter.
And to prevent yourself to do something bad
openly on front of people.
Some some people will say, it will be
show off.
You know, our scholars exhibit if
we do something
if we do not do something in front
of people
to make our image good,
this is
show off,
have a real.
But if we do not do something in
front of people to protect
our image, we will not add something good
to make people really happy with us. But
at least to protect our image
on front of people, this is not show
off.
This is not reality
because
when you look
in the previous time,
even very near previous time,
it was a shame for the son to
smoke on front of his dad.
But look at at it today.
Yeah. That might give his son the cigarette
or to give him
together
Because there is no sharpness anymore.
There is no modesty anymore.
They might say
it's
but it's not.
We
the good is good all time, and bad
is bad all time. Even if you can
see everybody dealing with the bad actions,
they cannot change the definition of bad actions
to good actions.
This is the idea.
You know? It was a shame
for lady to go outside her her place
without covering her body.
A
to fit in your society.
The is
and haram is haram,
and is.
And this is the idea.
You know, when when
we see some sister, they choose to take
off their
scarf out or their hijab.
And, unfortunately,
if she has account
for Facebook
or Instagram or
WhatsApp, whatever,
and she posted
the first picture for herself without hijab,
and ask her,
what do you feel for the first time
when you post your picture without
hijab?
She
might say, you know, I was shy a
little bit in the beginning, but following day,
you know, it become normal, and it's okay.
And
and this is the idea.
If we open the doors,
they're built
for our countries.
It might
take us away
from
our real Islam,
from the correct path
of Allah.
Thus, we need to be very careful,
and we need to do that
because of Allah, not because
of myself or because my position among
people. No. This is
look at yourself
when you close the doors
and no one around you
except Allah.
And this is the story
in the time
of Sayyidina Umar.
He he used
to walk during the night
to look at
the condition of people. And he heard one
night,
the lady
talked her to her
daughter,
makes the milk with the water.
And the daughter, daughter, she told her mom,
oh mom,
don't you know that mixing
water with the milk, it's not allowed?
Don't you know that Amir ul Umenei prohibited
that?
And she said, what is Ameer ul Umineen
now? He cannot see us
during the night. It's dark. No one can
see us. And she said, if the Ameer
ul Umineen cannot see us, the Lord of
Ameer ul Umineen can see us.
Allah. You
know what happened?
Amirul Mumineen
was listening to this conversation,
and he
he choose this daughter
to be a wife of his son.
And from
their offspring
who came from from them,
Omar ibn Abdul Aziz,
and discovers
they named him the 5th Khalifa of Muslime.
He wasn't the 5th Khalifa, but because
he was
Imam
Abdul, Omar ibn Abdul Aziz.
He came
from this daughter.
She was afraid
to do something against
what Allah
taught her,
and this is what we need to learn,
what we need to teach our children
and our families.
Don't work at how how many that
we pray every day,
how many surah that we recite from the
Quran, how many dollars that we donate.
You know? Just concentrate.
Are we able to with the modesty and
the shyness
or not?
And train yourself. Put yourself
in the task,
and see
how you will respond
if you are able to disobey Allah and
no one around you
look at yourself.
You will do it or not?
Trust me.
If you prevent yourself away from this bad
action,
Allah will give you the taste
of sweetness.
Like prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam mentioned
to
taste
the sweetness
of faith.
May Allah
help all of us out
to be
to have modesty and to have shyness in
our art, in our mind,
and to help our children out
to obtain
a good modesty for them in their life.
