To the Safina society nothing but facts live stream and we are here
on a Thursday. And you know that Thursday is the day in which we
talk about stories of the odia.
So that's what we're going to do today and we're going to talk
about we're going to go into the early ascetics in outer resell
crochet area. Because he ma'am and of course at he did an amazing,
amazing contribution to the field have to sew off by talking about
the terminology of additive. So of being for example, the the Mako
mats, what is the definition of Xvid? What is the definition of
it, Shakur, et cetera. And he talks about all these these
McCombs, what is definition of redox. All these McCombs that he
talks about and a definition sorry that he talks about he talks about
karamat what is the role of color match? What is the definitions?
Well, what happens to the person after the cut on mats? What is the
woody?
Alright, in Olia, who in line with taco, what is the woody that's, of
course, that verse has to do with the protectors of the Kaaba, but
it also has to do with the way that ALLAH SubhanA wa, tada has
Elia. And he describes him as an with de-code. And there's a hadith
of Willa. So he just discusses all these at length. And at the end of
the book, a very beautiful section here. It's pretty long, actually,
where he talks about the early aesthetics, and not all of them
have extensive backgrounds. He has 83 entries, or 83 entries of the
Olia that he talks about, so
let's just begin. Let's just take verbatim what the Imam tells us.
Right, no altering anything or just verbatim what the Imam tells
us and we'll see what he says and then we'll open up for your
comments and your questions. Alright, so the first person is
Abdullah, Abdullah Al every Abdullah Al Abadi, and his real
name is Abu Bakr, Abdullah, even thaw had an ever hoodie. He died
at 330 of the hijra, which is 932 of the Common Era, which is an
approximation because the common era only
the common era calendar only leveled out around like the year
50 1400 or 1500. Before that, they were they had that problem of the
extra quarter of a day. So the eaters would jump around and it
was all messed up. The months would move around the seasons. So
min a cron Delphis Shibley he was a Shibley the famous that had a
Shibley who was said about him that he wants anger to Governor a
kink and they would have like little city states that even if
they were like connected to that bested kill Khalifa, but the
connection was only on like very broad things. So these little city
states within the OMA these little towns and neighborhoods, they
would have like kings, and that King was angry with them. And
there wasn't a such a thing where like the reach of the best of
Khalifa would be so near that are so strong that there'll be federal
law or something like that. No, there wasn't. So he actually ended
up feeding him one time his punishment is that he's going to
put him in a in a,
in a space in open space with a wild lion, which is basically like
a mountain lion. It's not going to be a lion from the savanna like a
mountain lion.
And, and he was in that space, and the lion was extremely hungry, to
the point that the lion pinned him down, jumped on him immediately
jumped on him, and then opened his mouth and is like literally on his
face. He's about to bite his face right off.
And then something happened
where the lion just backed off
and just walked away, as if he doesn't even see anything.
And they counted this as a major cut off of that so many people got
guidance from this.
And they asked him what vicar Did you say you must have said some
amazing vicar that caused this lion to back off of you. He said
by Allah Nothing like that happened. All I was thinking about
was I was trying to recollect the ruling
on law online the Jessa
Lyon saliva is it not just because I didn't want to die with Naja on
my body. I didn't want to return to Allah subhanaw taala
and be the Angel of Death coming to take me with Nick Jesolo for
me, that's what he was worried about. Subhan Allah these are
something else these earlier were something else and you can
understand it. They would have spent so much time alone. We
because there was a world of much less distraction that there is now
to the point that their Eman would be so rock solid, okay that
these things could happen to them. So he was from the Quran from the
lived in the same
generation as a Shibli. And he was a cleric colleague of a Shibley
and he was from the shield of algebra
meaning that he was, he was from the Shuhada mountain areas. He was
not a city man. It's not a city dweller. He was a scholar and he
had what he was known for caution know what it is to make sure
double check that you don't even enter into the mcru Let alone the
Hello
Sahiba use if Ignat Hussain, Wilfredo he kept the company of
use of Hussein and others. And so in the in the original books they
made before there was a concept of this was his shake, right? They
will just say who he kept the company of
and from his sayings.
Okay
Minho coming up here and let Akula who Raghava
from the rulings of the ascetics don't have desires. That's tough.
That's really tough. And I'll let me tell you that that's for the
times of the past.
You know what a lot of these books have to sell off because there's
relativity to it. You need to translate it, you need a filter, a
filter of living shoe, right. And the living shoe that I know, they
were very cautious of going down that route and I spoke to some of
them, such as Habib.
A sucker Subhan Allah, his name is skipping my mind right now.
He always came to me accosted and he spent a week and I can't I
called him sometime after that. I'd be some hot a lot of the, I
don't know, isn't my knees names, give him my mind right now.
Saying,
I gotta remember his name, his face is right in front of me. But
I asked him about this. What about the state of having no desires
anymore?
And never even making a dua except Quranic dua, and just leaving
everything to Allah, He said, this is very, very heavy state. It's a
very heavy state. And you could only do this upon being formally
and specifically and individually trained to reach that level. And
he says, It's not from the necessities anymore, and no one
should go try to do that by themselves. Is it? Yes. So saying
this took off. I'll send you some stuff. He came to my closet about
five years ago.
And then afterwards, I contacted him from into that in the
Emirates. And we discussed this. He said, This is a very heavy
state and nobody should try to go there without being specifically
trained. Otherwise, what a person should do is make dua and
condition it by saying, Oh Allah, if it's good for me, like that. So
but he's, that's why I'm telling you from the these are the early
early aesthetics, they were able to attain these McCombs without
any danger, because there was nothing to design in the first
place.
The incana will avoid but if he has to have a desire for Allah to
Joe was rather better who Keifa to who got it, meaning that you
should only desire what you direly need to survive. This is the early
ascetics, I'm telling you Yeah, Annie dodge really will call up
either adapter icon, filler heater Allah for acculevel Mocha, a lotta
who fit dunya if you answer the call of a Muslim
or a brother in the sake of Allah, then decrease the mingling
regarding worldly matters
how's the film's we're not reading from savers have some experience.
I believe we actually finished all those those biographies. Ryan's
will talk to you right now we're reading from unrecycled Kush idea
number two,
but away him even Akhmad. We're gonna get a lot of budock are
reading from these. Whoa Mohamed away and he died to fear I am
familiar with ratha Hijiri and
303 Hijiri which is 915 so he died before Abdullah a booty he's
Baghdadi men are the men Messiah he was a city share. So the first
one was a mountain share. In other words a shake of the of the
countryside in the mountainside. This is the city share.
What did he say?
Kanna mill Kurian will fucky hon Allah math heavy doet
got he was a kadhi a reciter and a jurist on the meth hub of dough
divide it that will divide he came around the time of Imam Shafi. He
was younger than his Sheffy and he did not do PS. He accepted
nucleus, which of course is not is sort of incorrect info
In all solid FIP all them at the hub except clears
Carlota away.
Men Hakeem al Hakima and USA Allah when he filled
I think this is min Heycome al Hakim, good from the wisdom of the
wise, is that when your brother seek a ruling make it vast. This
is so important. When your brothers seek a ruling in a
matter, you make that matter vast don't make it a difficult matter.
Right? Don't make matters difficult, in fact,
while you will buy your car RFC, but make a strict on yourself, be
strict yourself but make things easy for people. Why? Because what
people should really be pushed to do is to avoid sinfulness.
But what needs to come from their own will? Is all the NO NO and and
that's the walk. No FLN totowa is something that you don't have to
do at all. If you do it you get rewarded for it's not even so
Nikita so you should never leave it off. Right? To leave off
syndrome aka for no reason is a flaw in your religion. So a
mathematic said about someone who never prays which is a flaw in his
Deen. So when it comes to this
you want someone when you when you yourself advance and you're
pushing yourself there's a reason you're doing that. You're doing it
from your own freewill. No one's forcing you is what he's saying
here. Right? Don't force just make the matter vast and easy for
people
in Nautilus saw I lay him minutes to battle him. This is when you
make things easy for people that's a sign that you have knowledge
when you make things hard. You're ignorant right because you don't
even you're not only ignorant of the of the Sunnah. You're also
ignorant of human nature. They won't want it they won't do it
right
what to the caller and FC he mean, Kevin water.
Right. And to make things difficult on yourself that's out
of water, not difficult, but to ensure that you you you'd never
ever enter into a realm that is forbidden. That's from water. You
go to Abu Abdullah in a coffee sir El Toro Weyman for Paul to el
cine. Abdullah Nick Aviv says I saw it away him.
And I said give me advice. And that's something they used to do
they just say someone else Eeny meeny, give me like the final
counsel, maybe they're going to part ways for a while. So give me
your final counsel. Oh, Cindy,
for Karla, so he says merval amuru illa Badler rue this affair of
ours.
It costs nothing less than your soul.
In M Kanika. The whole female Heather. What Allah for Allah to
struggle.
Bitter terracotta Sufi
says if you can pay this price, good, but if you can't, don't get
busy with the words of the SOFIA, now that you will not understand
them.
Do not get busy with it. In other words, just do FIP right Dawa
things like this because if you're not going to pay the price, you
won't understand the language of the people who are paying the
price. Don't even bother.
Well Carlota waim Go Dukkha ma Kalita cotton Mina NASCI As Salam
mimco de cana na Sufia fit in kolel Kalki ka do Allah Rasool me,
Waka waka the teddy bear if eyelid haka, the Khattala Bella halacha
ko loom and fossa whom de Valois had his shutter.
What Allah Maha bahala and for whom be happy
when we were to sit for Monica Adama whom waka Allah for whom fee
che in mid May, it's gonna be in as Allahu Noorani management.
Very heavy, saying he says here, sit with everybody in the world.
Okay, but be very careful when you sit with the people of this path,
which at that, which he described them as a Sufi. Why is that he
said, everyone just has to follow the outward of the Sharia. But
these Sufia have dedicated themselves to the haka the inward
purity of them, of these matters. They demanded of themselves
nonstop sit with Allah subhanaw taala not just follow the law.
So therefore, whoever sits with them, but then clashes with them.
All right, then the man and the light will come out of his heart
while you're clashing with Lulu. So that means be very cautious
when you're sitting with the people of Allah subhanho wa Taala
you
They're not the people that you want to make a mistake with. Like,
if you're, you don't want to make a mistake with the family
of the CEO. That's going to be very personal. You're gonna get
yourself fired. Right? So sit with anyone else mess around with
anybody else. Certain mistakes are all forgivable, but do not miss
her. And this is all from the Tafseer and the actualization and
the recognition of Allah saying about them.
Minaya deli well Ian and Tubal hub. If you oppose one of my
earlier I would warn you.
Whereas that's not set for anyone else. As I said for anyone else,
only the Olia, this is specific, there's two times Allah has waged
war on people one the people of Riba, usury and interest. And
number two, those who offend and wage war on the Olia of Allah
subhanaw taala.
So that's what he's saying here. He says, sit with anyone else
because you screw up with them. It's forgivable mess around with
the idea. Defer with them, argue with them.
Get on their bad side. Okay, you have, you can only get on their
bad side because of something haram that you did or a bad state
that you're in. It's not about them. They have eliminated their
ego. So if they're upset with you, they can they would only be upset
with somebody who has angered a lotta like that's their they have
only one skill.
They look at Shinya and Nicholas sincerity. That's the only thing
they look at. So they've applied that to themselves. So when they
see someone else, they're never going to be upset with somebody
unless he has one problem with one of these two things. So this is
the meaning of Minaya. Dailywell Ian Fukada, then tubule herb, that
means that the Olia are representing the truth. They don't
like or dislike someone for their wins anymore. They've eliminated
their whims.
Got out a whim.
It says that the dad worked in JIRA, B bow the soup secret
for stock item Indar. He said I was walking in one of the ways
about a dad and I got very thirsty in the middle of the day.
So I went and asked water from one of the people in there those homes
for Fetzer hats severe June berbahasa, were now her coos, a
little girl opened the door and she had a cup or a
pitcher for them Mara ethnio collet Sufi yesterday when her
when she saw me she said a Sufi drinking in the daytime. No, there
was should be fasting. For a fun too bad alkyl yo mocha. He said, I
never
I never broke my fast after that day ever facet all the day except
eight
will call out a whim, in the Rosa caca Allahu ta al makalah, welfare
welfare for ACA Domincan Makala UPCA la confianza in her Nam, if
Allah gives you the gift that you talk the truth and you act upon
the truth, that's a blessing. But if he takes away your speech, in
other words, you're not in a position to talk anymore, but you
still act upon it. This is a big blessing in the ACA that men can
have garlic and McAuliffe in the Hermoza but if he keeps, lets you
keep talking, but he takes your action away. In other words, you
don't do anything you're just talking he said this is a
calamity. In the UK let me kick it off here. Nigma and if he takes
both away that's punishment.
Both of them are taken away that's punishment Spatola so you have
talked and you have action action is more important than the talk.
Why? Because that the other one is what limits Hakuna Matata. That's
the hypocrisy of action. There's hypocrisy of belief and hypocrisy
of action. So you talk a good game, but you don't act upon it.
That's it we'll see but now you don't act upon it. Nor do you even
talk about it. This must be a punishment nothing less than a
punishment. That you did the law has not even allowed you to talk
about his Deen anymore.
Ask a life in cinema from them.
Number three
enemy Well hello, I will Abbas Majid bin Mohammed Vanessa if now
thought enemy he died in the same time period 309 After the Hijrah
which is 921 in the common error? He was from the Kabuki bar in
Messiah was so heard wall ma what can or kuras you all of them were
shutting the whole chorus used to talk a lot about him. Whoa, I'm in
a Quran Allah Junaid he's from the colleagues and the same time as Al
Junaidi Salic
Ahmed al enemy
were called Sahaba Ibrahim Al Mary Stanny. And he was the companion
of Ibrahim A man named
Ebrahimian metastatic Yeah, cool. Man Elsa man, EFSA who adabas
Sharia know what Allah who called Bobino did Madiba?
Whoever forces himself to follow Elsa enough so force yourself to
follow the rules of the Sharia, that Allah to Allah will light up
his heart. So, if I have a Darkened Heart
and I have no feelings in my heart, in of Deen of Eman like I'm
just have a dark heart. How do I fix that? You can't just fix your
heart. You show Allah subhanaw taala that you want to fix your
heart by acting upon his law.
You make yourself act upon Allah's law.
You force yourself, that's your expression. That is how you pay
the price. That's how you're essentially telling Allah subhanaw
taala I want this
only when you show that and you do that, then Allah subhana wa Tada
will light up your heart. So if you can't control the inside
control the outside
I can't control my inside my inside is dark. I have no love. I
have no love of the Prophet No Love of Allah no love of shittier
this doesn't isn't nice to me. I don't like so you have a very sick
heart. If that's the case, someone who does not answer the call of
the commands of Allah subhana wa Tada quickly. Such a person has a
dark heart. It's a very sick heart. So how do I cure my heart
by the outside first, go to the outward things first, and the
outward things, force yourself to do them avoiding prohibitions
fulfilling obligations and doing a bad diet. So remember, because
Daddy says it beautifully in lb day. Well, when you hire he says
that when you do this, the medicine if you're sick, the
medicines bitter. So if your heart is sick, when you ingest that
medicine, it's better you don't like it. So you can have people
whose hearts are sick, they can sit in open the Quran to recite
the Quran, and it's like pulling teeth.
It's miserable for them. Why? Because it's hard sick.
But what's the solution? When you're sick? What do you do? You
keep taking the medicine, you continue to take the medicine
until you find it to be sweet. Good. Continue taking the
medicine. And the moment that it's no longer
painful for you.
That's a sign that you're getting healthy.
The moment that you desire to do this now.
That's a sign that you are in good health.
Okay, so you're gonna go from I hate this so much. That's because
the heart is sick, too. Okay, I'm doing it, too. I want to do this
now. That means the heart is reached at home. And this is why
when we talked about children before.
If your children get sick, you got to force them to take medicine.
Whether you like it or not, you're taking this medicine, right?
kicking, screaming. And when you do it, you tell yourself you're a
good parent, right?
Give me a parent. The kid has a fever.
Your two year old has a fever.
And then the doctor says you must take this medicine to bring the
fever down or else the kid could die.
And then you didn't give him the medicine. That was eight. Did you
give him the medicine? No. He doesn't want to I don't want to
force him. I want to make him love medicine. Doctors gonna say do you
want to go to jail? For negligence? Do you want your kid
to die? What's wrong with your head? force him to take the
medicine whether he likes it or not.
And a burger with liquid is very similar to this. Right? Just
people don't view it as that they don't recognize that this is as
Shiva.
Sir Quran certain children, there's a certain amount of time
you must recite the Quran. Whether you like it or not.
Force, you will love it. Like eventually when your heart is
cleaned. Okay. And certain things you can never do. You will not
roam around Netflix, just bad things for your heart there. Okay,
certain things. I don't care if you want to do it. I don't care if
all your friends do it.
You can't do it. It's gonna ruin your heart. So the only if you
have voc.
Voc is experienced to hookup and you've experienced this will you
recognize that sins and Vicodin is no different than poisons and
medicines.
And no household I've ever seen. allows your kid to have
Eminem covered ice cream at 4pm dinners and half an hour dinners
in one hour.
Right? No household out there. What's What's for breakfast?
Pile of Skittles. For breakfast, no household. It's bad. You know
it's bad. So in the physical matters.
If we truly understood this and we tasted this, then we would treat
spiritual matters the same way we treat physical matters in fact,
more
Because if Skittles at 7am, on a Saturday morning is only going to
destroy your teeth, sins are going to destroy your heart. But the
problem is that if you've never tasted, and you never felt the
pains of sins and the sweetness of vicar, then you have no reference
point to what we're saying here.
So you need to take treat yourself as a patient and force. It's with
force in the beginning and bitterness and you hate it. And
that's why the sin is the ODOT. The secret to health is the ODOT.
Why because the other so short, but the regular What did in the
morning, what did in the evening, right if you could put up some
inside.org backslash whiffed, lowercase W. Morning would evening
word. In the beginning, some people have said they can't even
bring themselves to recite it. So they just listened to it
for like a couple months, then they bring themselves to actually
recite it and they start reciting it once they start reciting it.
All right. It's it's a pain in the beginning. But they forced
themselves to force themselves and force themselves until eventually
they find the sweetness to it. Once you find a sweetness to it.
That means your heart is healthy.
This is what he means min elitism and if so adabas Sharia know what
Allahu Kalba right then Allah will put a light inside your heart.
Well, Emma comma Ashraf Asafa minima, call me whatever, whatever
but it will Habibi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam fee, our MIDI or
if it were clappy, and there's no MACOM better than following
Allah's most Beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam in his
commandments and his actions and his manners, we'll call it of them
will have Afula t gerflor. To love the Arabic the worst of
heedlessness is the art is heedless of his Lord, we'll go
flat to who, on our media, he went away he.
And the first of of remembrance of your Lord is on commandments and
prohibitions. That's the proof. Proof is not how much of that
could you do? Proof is how much obedience to the commandments and
prohibitions that you observe. And Vickers supports that. And then
decode is what comes after that. As the as the prophets, Hadith,
Quincy said, he obeys me and then after he obeys me in the
obligatory matters, then he adds no effort after that. So Victor is
used before and after the before so and there was a shaman who
shishi in Morocco, he would get these golf in these completely
heedless centers, but they love him, because he uses nice methods
with people, right is his interactions with people people
love it the way they just, he was so informal with the people. He
was known to cut it off with the people, they just loved him. So
sinners came to him one time a group of guys and this is very
famous story, actually, a bunch of guys for some reason they got into
the ship. They just fell in love with the ship. And they would
start attending to him.
And they said, Okay, give us instruction. So he said, Say Leila
X amount of times a day. It got to the point that they were saying
Leila, like 10,000 times a day.
But some of the people are like in the masjid they're like Well, no,
but you never taught them the Shetty at first. Right? Like they
don't do they know how to make will do properly? Do they pray
even? Do they like lower their gaze? They're still doing all
their sins? He says yes, this is the pre this is what we're doing
before. Before we clean the house. We got to turn the lights on.
There's no lights on in this house. Right? Only to clean the
house. We need to turn all the lights on. Okay.
And that's he said that's the method of the vicar for the
sinner. It's not that he's graduated beyond Shetty. Sharia.
Or he's accomplished that and he's now doing no effort. No, it's you
got to turn the lights on. That means he create for him a love of
Allah subhana which you put some * in his heart. Then when you
start laying down the shittier they'll love it. They'll want to
do it. They'll have a motivation to do it. Okay, they'll love to
they will hate they will find it hateful for them to disobey Allah
subhana wa Tada while doing this thicker and so that's basically
his methodology. So the vicar is something that comes before
learning Sharia and practicing it and then it comes after again. But
the after is now nephila Extra a Betta that beforehand, it's like
you got to rinse down a car first once before you start washing it
you don't take soap to dirt right you rinse it down. So there's
always a pre a pre thing that has to be done. Good
way a cool
cool Luma sir, sorry, let's So Elijah and who fought lube who FIM
affairs at Hill elm.
Everything that you're asked about
or CoolerMaster Elton who everything that you desire. Seek
it in knowledge
and knowledge.
For a limited schedule for FEMA Dan and hikma if you if you can't
find it in the Cydia seek it in the realm of wisdom like their
everyday wisdoms. Okay. And we have hokum up people who like to
speak of wisdoms wisdom it's like benefits, things that benefit you
but there's no law behind it right? It's just a wise saying,
for inlanta Jeju facin habito aid if you don't find an answer their
way it in contrast it's so hate for m&m turgid who meaning the
attributes of Allah does this benefit, right? Or not. But if you
don't find it there, he had the INMO. All there I thought Earth
father to be he was a Shavon, than throw it back in the face of
shades on because this desire of yours is not valid. Now, there's
something that's very important an example of how knowledge can
really benefit someone. There's a lot of people that have, they
commit these different sins, and they have issues. And the answer
to this is that, for example, I give an example, somebody who
likes to
really come out in front of people with a certain dress, or a certain
appearance that may not be permitted, because of the nature
of the clothes, or whatever. It may mean mcru. So what the Sharia
does, and what this what wisdom does, I should say, is it says,
look,
there's something you're doing, and there's a reason you're doing
it, you're doing it to get attention.
You're good, you're doing it to get somewhere, because it feels
good that people give you attention. So wisdom says getting
attention by itself is not bad. Human beings love to be loved.
There's nothing actually wrong about that. But the method by what
you're doing is the wrong method. So leave off this method, because
that's going to lead you to a bad type of attention. And you're not
going to be satisfied with that attention. So everything that
every action that people do, they have to ask themselves this
action, what do I believe is it's going to lead me to because your
your human emotion or desire is always something that's usually
it's natural law created that.
And to match that to, to engage with that, and to fulfill that is
not always a bad thing. You got to ask yourself the question, okay,
what am I looking at? What am I seeking? And when you're when
you're seeking something, you ask yourself, Who then is the method
by which I'm seeking it permitted or not? Because of an invalid or
impermissible method is not going to get you the result that you're
looking for? How many people out there they want to look good. So
they they go out and they don't observe the shittier in their
appearance, because they want the attention they want beauty they
love people to say that they're beautiful, that feeling that you
want that's legitimate. However,
the methodology is not so it's not legit it's it's strangers looking
at you at what they're not allowed to be looking at is not what's
going to make you happy. You think that's what's going to make you
happy. So you all you have to do is put it in front of Allah Oh
Allah, my heart is empty. I want to feel like this or that or the
other. And then look for it in the video file follow God's law.
And Allah to Allah will fulfill your need and your emotions.
That's from the wisdoms of
Sade noci This is how he was able to guide many sinners away from
their sins. He said what you're after is legitimate, and Allah
will give it to you. But not through what is haram.

It's an Aryan person can Amin Ebina at
Look for cartagia Yeoman, he had to say it. He was one of the sons
of kings. He was a prince. In other words,
he was a prince, and he went out to hunt one day. Now he has a
bigger entry because he is one of the biggest, early early sheep and
is the Christ story is very
widespread. Now he was one of the sons of Kings princes. And as I
had mentioned, even though there was like one Khilafah, but there
were a lot of different little cities that overall they reported
back to the Khalifa. But internally, they govern themselves
because he left and didn't have the manpower to go out the way
like states are today in nations. So he was one of these cities or
towns, and his dad was the dawn of the town.
So we went out one day, he went out to hunt for a thorough 11 out
of 11. And he came upon a rabbit or a fox. They used to get the fox
for the furs. Whoa, have you thought Toby and he's chasing it
for heads of A B hat if then he heard a voice. He said, Yeah,
Ibrahim. Ali had a collector. Ibrahim was this what you created
for JC animals? For fun? No, you're a rich kid that you don't
need to do this. You're not like hunting for food. And be Heather
omerta. Is this what you ever commanded to do? This is what
Allah commanded people to do, just chasing around animals for fun.
So, motiva, then he heard another sound, noise mallia, the holy AKto
Allah via the omit. So the answer, you weren't created for this, and
you are commanded to do this. For NASA under Betty, he came out of
his office at his horse. Now this is someone who is not
Yanni is someone who's not devoted. Maybe he's a common
Muslim. And he's a youth.
So came off and he looked around, and he was stunned and startled,
he could not find a single person who's saying this.
And he came to realize this is something from Allah.
Sometime later,
he wanted to go back into that woods where he had that miraculous
voice. He heard that miraculous voice, but he had obligations as a
prince, you're expected to there's expectations.
So he came upon his father is Shepherd.
Okay. And he says, Let's trade so people don't know it's me. Okay.
So he gave him his clothes, and he took his clothes. And it was that
rough clothes because he didn't want to wear the nice clothes back
into the woods. So he took the
took the rough clothes, and he went into the woods. And he
started to live in the woods. And he lived in the woods for long
periods of time, and I saw the solitude away from the princely
life. And it washed him away very much like how Satana Musa they
said, I went from living in the Pharaoh's palace to just being a
simple Shepherd. Right, and as Abu Qatada Jelani says in one of his
books, it washed away all the memories of the life of a prince
by just being completely alone and just with nature.
And then finally, he traveled to hajj, he decided to travel to
Hajj, and that's where he began his journeys across the OMA.
Ibrahim even adds him until he finally arrived in Mecca. All this
he's just a young modied he's a young seeker.
Well Sahibi so Fiona 30 Will filleted him now y'all there he
saw he came upon full day live niab And he learned more
asceticism and a bad from him. Then he saw Sophia and authority
Sophia thought he was a scholar Muhaddith and a jurist and heavily
involved in society, but he loved the aesthetics and he used to go
out so if you want to throw to use to leave the cities, he was a
scholar of the cities, okay.
But he used to leave the cities and he used to go spend time with
the with the ascetics.
Okay.
So he started keeping the company of Philip Nya and Sophia and
authority, he became learned in outward knowledge and an inward
knowledge, the way of aesthetics in the way of Sharia.
And then he lived in Shem, the sham area, he settled around the
sham area, but when we say settled, not in a house or
anything, he would travel around the mountains just live in the
mountains move around. And he never had like one group of
friends now he will just travel around always just being alone and
worshipping Allah subhanaw taala.
And he used to get jobs, farming jobs, security, jobs, whatever, he
would get different jobs. And he would he would earn from that. And
usually he would work in the different gardens of Damascus, and
the outlying farms of Damascus or he would shepherd for the farmers.
He'd have different jobs, and just a little hut and he would just
Go buy his food and he'd do his a bad and people would come visit
him he would go visit the scholars
what an awful bad idea to Romulan lemme who is Mala Hill album
he saw in the in the out in the bed dia out in the deserts in the
mountains get a man there and that man taught him the Greatest Name
of Allah subhanaw taala either do or Joby is the job, that if Allah
is called by this name Allah answers the DUA.
For Diaby badDo, Farah al kodra Allah Islam so he started using
this and he's to make dua with that.
But you see, Allah teaches these things to people who know how to
control their desires, and teach these things. Someone Oh, give me
a billion dollars is to be don't be foolish and stupid and use it
for matters of if you're going to do it for do it for a matter that
you need.
What color in the Malika Aqeedah would smell like lava? This was my
brother, he saw alcohol there.
So this is many people don't maybe not aware of this. But it is said
by many, many, many of the scholars that other who said no
Musa met is somebody who lives a unique human life. He's a human
being, but he lives a unique human life until he dies on the Day of
Judgment. Don't ask me how I'm just telling you what's in the
books. They say that I'll cover. He is unique and he lives and he's
the one that had the jet kills too and Allah knows best if that's the
truth. It is said that Mmm No We used to meet others too.
Every every Ramadan.
He said that that was
what can occur lebuh eglobal dua II The majority of his da Allah
Monckton Neiman Dooley. Marcia tick Illa aceita Arctic, the
majority of things that you say Oh, Allah removed me from the
humiliation of my sins to the glory, the honor of your
obedience. And it's also it was said by who said it, many said it
but even I thought mentions it. Heck of a pinata. But is that why
is some people Why are some people in obedience and some people are
in disobedience. He said that the people who are in obedience,
they're like that because Allah subhanaw taala saw something in
their heart, their heart moved in the right way. Their heart moved
in the right direction. So Allah Tala honored them with acts of
obedience. So that for example, you see somebody and you'd be
humble with them.
Right you see somebody and you'd be generous with them, your heart
moved, you see something and you sympathize with it. You see some
of the you get upset with it, just in your heart. You see disrespect
of Dean killing of Muslims disrespect of Muslims and you get
upset with it. That by itself is enough.
You see that? Allah Tada. You see these things and your heart moves
in the right way that Allah subhanaw taala
loves this movement of the heart.
So he dresses that person he starts inspiring them to do acts
of a bed and the opposite someone hearts goes in the wrong
direction, Kibber arrogance et cetera, et cetera. All right,
lust, disrespect and no anger for the for the Dean never his anger
for the dean. So ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada causes his heart. He dresses
him then with bad deeds, he
gets them into bad deeds, because that's the result of your heart.
We're headed Jezza will Sani il s Hassan
which is that will say you as an SI attune with Allah. Allah says
in the Quran is not the reward of good deeds, another good deed. So
the good deed of the heart, earned you the Tofik to do good deeds of
the body.
While which is that we say it is angel with Noah. Allah says in the
Quran that there is the punishment of a sin is another sin. Such that
your heart
moved in the wrong way. And arrogance disrespect, no anger for
the deen. No VEDA for the deen. So Allah subhanaw taala caused you to
get another person right to do acts of sins.
Will call ally Roger in fifth off he was making throw off around the
Kaaba and a man said to him Yeah, let him know. And Nicolette Anna
Lou Daraa Jettas flooded in, you will not attain the rank of the
slaughter he had touched does sit duck about until you pass six
levels. To have a look above and Nemo it's up to above a shudder
that you may have to one day close the door of luxury and open the
door of hardship.
And it's true. Even if it's not physical.
A person who goes into the Dean
all of a sudden his best friends may make fun of him.
Right? A person who practices the Dean all of a sudden
the doors were open to
me when I was like loose and doing all these haram things now they're
all closed
Withania W kebab and AES would have to have ever thought. There
are going to be cases where the practice of the deen causes people
to dishonor you.
Certain people, they don't have any respect for the dean. So
they're going to dishonor a person of Dean. That's what he means by
that. With that, if it doesn't look, Bob Raha would have to
hobble joint, the dean, it requires efforts to be done. Like
we're we Muslims, we're doing two different things where we have to
compete in the world like everyone else, and we have to uphold the
Sharia. We have two laws that were upholding. But this one, the law
of Sharia is going to help us take shortcuts in the success in the
world. That's why you should never imagine it that. Well, we have we
have a double burden and the kofod only have one law. No, the kofod
have one law that's very limited. It's like it's they're ruining
their dunya.
Right? They're just seeking dunya, but they're ruining it. They don't
understand the actual realities of what makes humans happy. And what
makes NEMA stay with you should yeah teaches us that.
But in the beginning, it seems like we got double the work to do.
Right? I gotta go to work from nine to five. But I also have to
pray fudge.
So if I wanted to get up at seven, that doesn't work, because I ended
up have to get up Pray at least at 615. You get up for 615. You pray
fetch, you crawl back into bed at 630. Well, what am I going to do?
How many is am I really going to sleep for 30 minutes? How many of
us have faced that before? And the alarm is going to go off? What do
I do with that 4030 2030 minutes, where I'm too tired to wake up,
but I'm not going to get much sleep. So we compete, we have two
different things to do in the beginning. It's what he says here,
close the door of ease, open up the door of hardship because there
is hardship. Everyone in the world is working in Ramadan, we're
fasting while working. God, we can't stop. It's not like the old
Ambassador era, the old Ottoman era where it's the whole world is
you know, your local world is all Muslim world. And everyone's taken
off and it's not harming any economic things. But no. In our
world today, we have two laws to maintain. In the beginning, it's
very difficult, but you're going to realize after a while, this law
of Sharia, and this wisdom of Sharia is going to eventually,
okay, it's going to make your met your dunya much easier, you can be
far more successful.
He then says,
fourth toggle local Baba gnomes after Baba, you're going to sleep
less and you're going to be awake more. Right? Like we got Fajr
forget fetch What if you ever wanted to do to hedge it? But you
still have to be at work at 9am. Right? Are you going to never do
to hedge it for your whole life? You can adjust. Right? You have to
adjust.
Fifth, take a look barbell Athena, tough to have, I will fuck.
You're going to close the door of wealth and open the door of
poverty. What does that mean? That means there's a lot of business
that you can't do anymore.
When you have the city, but you're in the beginning, you're going to
feel well, I'm giving up a lot of money here. But in the end, you're
going to realize the ways of the city, I will help me preserve what
I do have and grow it with more stability. So all this what he's
saying is in the beginning of your path.
And lastly, to have a look at Babel ml, which after Babel is a
little Mote now the person who starts turning to Allah to Allah
and getting involved in his Deen, he closes this door of only
thinking about the future of this religion. Okay, a future of this
life. And he starts thinking, Well wait a second. I'm worried about
30 years from now. And my investments I haven't even
prepared for my death. So he starts preparing for his death.
And he starts thinking about death. And when you start thinking
about my moats and my death, then you know, 30 years, what 30 years
from now, we'll worry about that later. So in the beginning, all
this is very hard. But eventually in the end, you realize this is
for you, not against you. Nothing of the deen is ever against you.
But it may be seemingly against you because of the sicknesses and
the rust and the sins on the heart.
Last paragraph, can Ibrahim even add to him? Yeah, it is. Yeah.
Hey, so Carmen, he was once employed in a grapevine in a
vineyard for grapes.
For Maravi June D, a soldier from the state came by and he says give
us some grapes. He says the owner doesn't never told me to give you
grapes.
So he said took his stick and he started hitting him
on the shoulder.
So Ibrahim unibead said no no, no, no, no, no, that's not the bad
part of me. This is the bad part of me hit it. I deserve to be hit
here. I deserve to be hit for for all my forgetfulness of Allama
Since the Chunji looked at him and said, This man is crazy and walked
by
Salim and Ibrahim said so to Ebrahim him to edge him from earth
to for pakka Allah and avocado. So every once in a while Abraham
would have bled him would have some friends. And he had a
roommate one time, named Sal libera him. He said I was sick. So
Ibrahim took care of me the whole time he took care of me. So I
asked
for certain foods, and when and it's it's a known remedy, that
when someone's sick, you give them the food that they want.
Because that's like, it's, it's going to be good for them. So he
said, I just kept saying, I want to eat this, I want to eat that.
So I kept he kept buying me these wonderful foods that I wanted to
eat when I was sick.
And then he says, Alright, let's go. I was I felt better. He said,
let's go. And then they went out. So I got on my mule. And Ibrahim
didn't have a mule.
Where where's your mule? I said.
He said, Oh, don't worry about that. He said when he means that
where you used to have a mule, we need to go somewhere. How are we
going to go is that a walk?
He later found out that Ibrahim had him sold the mule just to give
him the food that he wanted. And he said that chose the the type of
saga that Ibrahim had him
what he had for his people for his Sahaba were his companions his us
hub. Alright, we're gonna stop here. We have a small dua for Adam
age 11. Amon, age nine Tasneem, age three.
For some of our supporters at Safina society, these are their
children may Allah subhanaw taala. Make them love Eman and make it
sweet in their hearts. And let them live and die upon that and
make them hate Cofer and disobedience and rebellion.
And make it bitter in their hearts and let them die upon that we ask
Allah subhanaw taala to raise them up and surround them with
beneficial friends. And to give them spouses that are beneficial,
make them happy in their marriage, and let them die upon to heat and
keep away keep them away from all hardships in their families.
And give them bless the children when they grow up and make their
lives a color. Likewise to the all the children of everyone involved
in this type of work, and in our audience as well. All right, let
us now turn
to the comments. And it's time for open q&a. Specifically, we try to
relate it to the topic. But if we go off the topic, that's not a
problem. Now some of you have asked that you don't see that your
questions are answered. Remember, I try not to scroll up? Why?
Because some people if I answer questions that were posted
earlier, then that person might not be there anymore. So now the
QA has started, put your questions so that we can answer them while
you're still watching. That's the beauty of it.
Okay, so put your questions on now.
Say it Muhammad Daniel, I am a surah away from Cutsem Al Quran
can I make the cuts of now and you make the DUA?
Why not?
Why not?
Why job nowadays most women work and help raise family so parents
inheritance is being distributed equally among sons and daughters.
Is that permitted? No it is not. It's not your money.
It's not your money.
What to whom, Imad Allah, Allah, the attacker, give them from the
money of Allah, which He gave you.
The money that you have in your bank account is not yours. All
wealth belongs to Allah subhanaw taala.
The understanding is we may do with it what we wish. But he also
may command us to give out and prohibit us to involve in certain
things.
That's the understanding of wealth we have to have the proper
understanding of wealth, the communists, the capitalists, every
non believer before them and after them believes that wealth is
theirs. We say no logically, logically and by by revelation,
wealth is not ours. Wealth is Allah's wealth is not ours
logically. Because all wealth goes back to natural elements of the
earth. trace back this for example, where did this come from?
This came from money. I had the money I bought it. Where did the
money come from? That money at some point was mere representation
of gold.
Where did the gold come from? Who made gold? Who here on the earth
made the gold? Right? So this is why wealth is not ours? Well
Is Allah subhana wa charlas and he commands you to give
and he disallows you to give he just allows you to spend your
money on drugs, on alcohol
on interest, and he commands you upon your death your wealth is
going to be distributed like that.
X y&z So you have to distribute it like that.
Can you briefly tell us how to pray? Namazi just explain to me
what is just please. What is trust? What is the origin meaning
of trust?
What is the ruling on the duff in the sheets and thicker permitted
but discouraged if it's in the mosque, it's discouraged to use
the duff in the mosque.
Bina says, Could you please explain the Hadith that speaks
about women being deficient in intelligence and indeed, about a
calorific? Let me actually get the shot on that from one of the
automat. But the short of it is that there is no
what the Prophet peace be upon and described is that there deficiency
is merely in testimony testimony to a crime in which there is a
harm to be done on the criminal and those matters that Allah Darla
does not want her to,
to testify so that she doesn't have to sleep knowing that I'm the
I'm the person who did it. Right. Who caused this person to like
lose a limb or get lashes or something a lot out of that's one
of them as for Dean is that she doesn't pray most of the time, or
a lot of the time. A lot of times she doesn't have to pray. Okay.
So that's that but I will read that shot. Look up some of the
Shadow Hearts in the Mottola and we can read it one day
is the story of Adnan Mubarak and the slave in the book that we read
from
Allah Allah. I don't know I didn't read it from here, but it could be
here. It could be in the latter chapters, but I read it from
another book
nobilo it and says, What does it mean when you dream of something
happening but the opposite happens in real life?
Sometimes there's there's there are opposites and dreams. They're
opposites and dreams.
But that's that is a realm of study in the in the realm of dream
interpretation. There's opposites, right things happen but the
opposite occurs. Now why is that the case? Allah Allah, I can't
remember that lesson to be quite honest with you.
But we can after? Are we aware of the best of Allah's names that
that great name is Will all them no, we don't. And we're not aware
of what alisma album is. It's speculation everyone speculates on
it.
How can a mother says
mercy to Miss Miss D? How can a mother make dua to help her
disrespectful and disobedient daughter?
I heard you said about the heart of a person that Allah guides them
towards obedience and disobedience.
Well, first of all there is but also remember, as long as the door
of action is open, that is a branch of opening of answering
your DUA, right? Part of answering your DUA is that the door of
action is open. So the draw is easy. Oh Allah guide their heart,
you asked that in the middle of the night. But also there's
action, you have to ask yourself that a plant doesn't get rotten
for no reason.
This is true.
You can't have good soil, the right amount of water, clean
water, good sun, and this and the plant fails, right or wrong. So
we're not going to talk about Iman and Cofer because that's bit of
Allah, Allah is the guide to that. But we're just talking about
respectful.
A respectful child. This is like a plant. It's a healthy plant. A
respectful child is somebody who the influences upon this kid's
life are good influences. If you're always surrounded with
girls who roll their eyes, she's gonna roll her eyes, right? This
is the biggest thing some people think that's a small thing.
rolling your eyes is one of the biggest disrespect Allah even says
lo Russo. They roll their eyes like this when ethics you should
do that to the prophets of Allah when he was
when a revelation comes down.
Right that they don't like or the Prophet says something about
heaven and *, they think it's a joke. They roll their eyes. So if
she's all with all these SASSY Girls, and she's watching these
shows to
where the girls are all sassy and the rolling their eyes and they're
all materialistic and they're just
air is up here right?
Then then you can't blame them for eventually imitating them.
So the door if the door is acts of action is open, you got to take
that in
You got to take action
and stop them from being around people who are
the it's got to be the influences, it must be the influences. And it
also must be weak parenting, Rob post I put up, you got 18 year old
son is disrespect me or go eat for yourself, don't eat my food, don't
sleep under my roof. Don't put on the clothes that I bought. And
learn how to respect if you're not gonna respect me as you're dead,
respect me as your landlord. Respect me as your, the guy feeds
you.
The guy who buys your clothes, go buy your clothes, take all that
clothes off, I don't know how you're gonna go out. Okay, borrow
your sister's close. Get out of the house. Get yourself a job. See
how hard life is and what I'm protecting you from. Maybe you
won't have manners with me as your dad, but you have managed me as
your landlord. Right? As the guy who feeds you, the guy who
protected you go sleep out on the deck tonight, and see how you like
it. In the beginning, you'll be angry, then you'll get desperate,
then you'll become grateful.
You can't do that with a girl.
All right, we don't do that in the shear with a girl.
But there's weak parents. I'm not saying she's a weak parent. But
I'm saying there are a ton of weak parents.
Like we have every antic app that we have. It's the same complaint
the same bits, though, all they care about is their Instagram, and
their pictures and blah, blah, blah. Okay, the older girls
complain about the younger girls that have that. And the parents
are like, oh, you know, what can you do? What can you do? You
physically bought them this phone, then now they got addicted to the
phone, you will with your hands and feet, you moved to go to a TNT
and buy the phone. And you gave it to them with your hands. Allah
gave you these hands? Take it away. Right? That's the solution.
Now we can't Why can't Why can't you? What did you create? What
have you created, you raise it an alligator in your house, and you
keep feeding it and feeding it and feeding it. And now the alligator
is in charge. And you can't I can't go over there because the
alligators gonna bite me Subhan Allah, Allah gave you hands and
feet saw. And he's gonna ask you about these hands and feet. So use
them.
Snakes will lie, people have the raising snakes, and kids, very
simply, whatever you feed them, they become that they can become
angels too. If you feed them the right thing, they can be really
good. If you feed them the right Saba, and if you deprive from them
the poison, so
that's my two cents on the matter.
cents and Medic says I gave an interview for a job today The
decision comes tomorrow.
feeling anxiety and despair, how to stop feeling of negative and
scared about the decision.
I remember being in those in those positions. And the best thing
honestly, the practical advice is surround yourself with your family
and your loved ones and do stuff. Let the time pass. Right. And of
course, keep the remembrance of Allah on your mind at all times.
Sometimes I think of beer too, like there's a function of anxiety
that makes you more sharp as well. Subhanallah that's a great point.
Deer, like they always run away from everything and they look
fidgety. Yeah. Try not to get you. That's true. Sometimes anxiety
Ryan is saying if you heard him like, it's a good thing.
Because it makes you make sure that like you've got all your
bases covered, right?
What's the big deal to youth shows and how to deal with them being
pressured.
Youth shows
there's gotta be something Well, I mean, for boys sports, at least is
more Hello than not. Right?
I don't know for girls. And sometimes, you know, like, you
have to be a bit more raw and more. Not extreme. But it's like,
you don't have to watch a show. To watch the show. Right? Oh, I gotta
watch those who said what? Who wrote that law? Why am I bound to
it? Right? I want the years and ever I like maybe watched one show
like regularly my whole life. Jerry Seinfeld. That's it. I like
watch one show from my old life when I was young. I didn't watch
shows. Right? Why I just didn't have interest I watch sports. And
then one show that was caught my interest. Right? So but you should
look you gotta look, there's gotta be something that's okay. But we
will probably reach a time where it's not okay. Every show is going
to have trends and comb ludes and alphabet soup, every show.
I'm sure. Unless the Christians go make like a Christian Netflix or
something.
Then they'll have crosses everywhere. Fine, I'll tolerate
that. Right. How do we protect ourselves as Tasneem from being
spiritually exhausted?
Spiritual exhaustion.
Thus to is you have
times in the day, and you have to unwind yourself at the end of
every day with Che and Minette Boulton something of what is the
Balton mean? Something just had nothing to do with Dean. It's just
completely unwinding yourself. Right? Whether it's shooting,
playing basketball, watching basketball, you're allowed to do
that, for this reason Exactly. Hanging out with your friends.
You're allowed to do that, that helps avoid spiritual exhaustion.
I'll tell you who gets spiritually exhausted single people. Because
they have no one to to busy them from they're a bed. So it's like
they wake up, they go to sleep, there's like no
single people, meaning who live alone. But if you're surrounded
with your family, they're busy with stuff, right? Such that
it'll, it'll balance it out, it'll bring you a bit down to earth,
it'll take you forcibly take you away from your a bad day a little
bit, so you go back with more energy. But if in the absence of
that, it is okay for you to do engage in something of dunya so to
speak, so that you can go back to a bad in a good way.
Is that what you mean by spiritual exhaustion like I'm worshiping so
much I'm tired.
That's That's why I understood the question to be
does the hadith of Kisa have same transmission in Sunni and Shia
tradition? I've never made a comparison
and never compare them.
Any trips, tips or tricks to be able to get a good workout without
listening to upbeat music?
You got to ask the people who workout right to be honest, I use
the treadmill but I don't actually go to gyms and stuff like that.
You take a smoothie before you work out fruit and protein before
okay, but then how do you keep yourself going though? I guess you
get yourself a drumbeat Right. Or watch reruns of the Superbowl.
Right and watch the old Super Bowls or old action movies where
like like someone's getting chased or something like that.
You think about fit when you're working out? Some bottle
Yeah, swimming you can't have anything on your mind or you can't
listen to any
question from Mohammed. Was that
oh really at the gym? Well
Muhammad says if a gift is given to a child, but parents give it
away to someone else, what is the ruling here? Everything given to
your child is yours. You could do what you want with it.
You think you own anything in this house? You're using all of my
stuff that shirt of yours? That's mine. I bought it my money. I let
you use it. Right that's how things work. What do you mean my
room you don't have a room? Show me the receipt you paid for this
room. That's my room that I'm letting you use. Okay.
That's how it is. Moab says when ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada says, We
assigned a law and path to each of you will equally mean consider at
a woman Hajra he would have made you one community but he wanted to
test you.
Yes, we could have been one human being one tribe, One Race, One
language one prophet. It could have started like that, right? But
no Allah subhanaw taala divided things up. Right, divided up the
territories divide up languages, continents are separated by seas,
so they never meet each other. This is part of our test. This is
for all of humanity in general.
The test of that you will grow to be something see your culture will
grow to be totally different from another culture, you may end up
having wars for Lent, for example, you may have ended up having feel
threatened. So you may have a small country, their own language,
their own culture, their own everything and they're threatened
by all the length the countries around them and their conflict or
peace develops. That's the test are we going to live in conflict
with the living piece, so on and so forth? Like physically it's a
test

Use of a lulu says salam aleikum? How does one know they're ready
for marriage and not just lonely?
Marriage is not about my ready in marriage is about desire. Do I
want it or not? That's a simple question you have to ask. It's
just that how do you know you're ready to eat dinner? I want to eat
dinner. Right? Now. You have to be a good husband too. So you need
coaching on how to be a husband. Just because you want to get
married doesn't mean you should get married. You need some
coaching, read some books, watch some lectures, get educated. Ask
people. What's How do you be a good husband?
You do that for a couple months? You'll have enough? Are you can
you pay the rent? Can you pay for food? Can you pay for a jacket?
Can you pay for gas for her car? Right? When she might have to go
visit her? Does she maybe she was in college? Can you pay for all
these things that's objective. The other stuff is just learned.
Right? Ask around
what time is Java according to Eastern Standard Time, we'll go

And when Phaedra is out. So we all have apps like that I use an app
called pillars.
Sunrise is 714. That's when you cannot pray Fudger anymore. But
that's not when the sun is all the way up. That's when the sun has
started to come up above the horizon Federa is out at 20 it
takes 20 minutes for the sun to come up. So add 20 minutes to that
to sunrise. So 730 for let's just say 740. And though it is in at
1248. So from 740 to 1240. That's five hours. That's when you pray
Doha
and it can be prayed in any number of workers 2468
Are women supposed to be on public media platforms?
If a per if a woman is sharing some benefit, and it's not in a
way that's seductive or anything
and it's not in a way that it's just trying to get attention, but
it's sharing a benefit than insha Allah there should be
acceptability for the
greed says please talk about how our community suffocate women and
over sexualized them but are very lenient on men, because most men
aren't. They can't be sexualized. That's why right most men are not
that good looking. Right whereas women can be but how our community
suffocate women and over sexualized them
what we mean by the community like the Islamic community or like the
world, for example, she says here if a young married sister is in
college, is there an obligation upon her husband to pay her
tuition? No.
husband does not have to pay for
higher education.
But you could expand on what specifically the community over
sexualizes women on
Salah to Doha is praying any to rock us 2468, whatever, because
you want to do anytime in that window that we mentioned just now.
Okay. That's what slots advise.
NYU is here. And I have to say I really wanted to go to NYU this
year to speak. But the schedule was just so brutal.
I really wish I could have made it.
On my Mariam says, Are there going to be any Islamic family events
during the Thanksgiving holidays at mbyc? No, we won't have
anything like that. Usually people because the majority of the
community are families, we just let everyone we have off we take
off. And the people just go to their community and their families
and spend the weekend there.
Is the concept of miss your marriage accepted?
No, miss your marriage is a marriage in which a woman
she gives up her rights. Miss Jada literally means an on the go
marriage. So that let's say I'm a businessman, and I do business in
St. Louis, right. And I'm there twice,
twice a month.
I'd say for the summer. I'm there every summer, but I'm not there
for nine months after that.
So a miss Jada marriage is a marriage in which the woman
agrees, listen, you don't have to do anything. You don't have to pay
my rent. You don't have to pay my food. You don't have to protect
me. Just come and will enjoy yourselves as a married couple.
And don't worry about any I forego all which of what you owe me.
That if I'm not mistaken, is what you're asking about. So if that is
stated by the letter of the law, are in the contract, that's
forbidden. But if it happens to be like that, without the intent of
being like that,
that means that if I were to move to St. Louis, yes, we would live
as a normal couple. Right? Then that's fine. So if if the intent,
I have the intention that I'm going to only the only thing
between us is intimacy. And it's a hangout for basically. Okay,
that's it.
That is the unacceptable if it's in the contract, if it's intended,
even if it's in the contract and contracts invalid. If it's
intended the contract still valid, but it's sinful. But if it in
contrast, if it just so happens to be that way, and I'm trying to
fulfill all my obligation, I have the intent to live as a normal
marriage, then that's acceptable. It's not missing on match.
Alright, if he says, a lot of people in our parents generation,
they let boys stay out late with no consequences.
And they treat girls then whereas they don't treat girls the same
way. And they're very strict and they're like the police. Yeah, I'm
totally aware of the way the Arabs mainly, I don't know about the
daisies, but the girl is basically like, she's a servant in the house
and the boys some kind of Prince, right? That's total. That's just
it's that's unfair, has
even not related to overcentralisation just, it's
going to create bitterness, right? In the two that the treatment of
the two, aside from anything in the city, it has to be similar.
Okay? Because they're gonna they're gonna hate each other.
She's gonna be bitter about this. And it's it's a very common thing.
If you're from our cultures, you know this and you've seen this
nobody is saying that fiat currency is a river, as I'm
telling you. A currency is never put into a river requires a
transaction.
So that's not an issue.
Chief Latif says would freeing a human trafficking victim be the
same as freeing a slave and Shinya inshallah it will be job, if not
exactly close, like I wouldn't say that it is in for Kafala. For
reward, yes, but for kofod Oh, no. So like, let's say, I have to free
slaves, like the Quran says to expiate yourself. free slaves? No.
Okay, the human trafficking person, it's, yes, it's very
similar in their suffering, but it's categorized more as a
kidnapping. So in the reward, yes, but not in the matters of law such
that I would expiate for my broken fast etcetera.
So I hope you understood the difference there.
shift will allow replace bad friends with virtuous ones. If we
give up the former for the sake of Allah 1,000%, you will always find
the Door of Allah opening up.
You will you will find that opening up 100%. And I've seen
back to the same here that I've seen a lot of families where the
girl takes on all the responsibilities. She takes care
of the parents when they're sick, she does all the errands, she does
all the things in the house and the guy is just like a prince. And
I wish that you weren't Prince, you're not a prince. You're not
even close, right? He's not even there's nothing princely about
you. So it's just creates a lot of bitterness. And that's probably I
don't know why the the that happened but it happens.
Ali Batali, women have 10 times more patience than men they
tolerate a lot too. That's very true. They do tolerate a lot of
they do tolerate a lot
of abuse that they shouldn't have tolerated.
An equal
what is the significance of a golden watch in a dream?
Finding or returning one to a deceased family member?
Allahu Allah to be quite honest with you.
Allah Allah.
A golden watch is something that by which we keep time and we
are we frozen? Are we good? We're good. Oh, my internet's frozen.
Is it permissible to cut ties with an extended family member who
practice said no, it's obligatory, not permissible, obligatory quote.
What do we believe about kids? Now as I said already mentioned that
somehow Allah might have said that he lives until a long life while
he's a human is something very unique special in the creation of
Allah and Allah knows best we don't know much about this
subject. Hamza as easy says
these days health experts import emphasize seven hours of sleep but
many of the shakes and said he couldn't slept very little which
way to go No, you go the natural way of where you feel your health
is going. Those you can oh yeah, they didn't sleep a lot into
happen naturally. It's not something they tried to do.
So you just go the way of health but the Sunnah also helps us with
this in that it tells us that the early sleep
after a sharp like early on is very good.
The
sleep after fudge not set not that great sleep before maguet of such
that you wake up and it's dark that's terrible for you. The
afternoon nap very good for you.
Should we
wish acquaintances who are Hindu Happy Diwali? No.
No.
Read thoughts on getting a mortgage. You shouldn't you should
go the route of the Islamic finance companies
even if it's a bit more expensive, but what can you do? At least the
contract is how that halal meat might be more expensive right?
than non halal meat. Marriage is more expensive than a girlfriend.
Lotta Halal is more expensive than the haram. What can you do?
Susanna ramen, or Rahim says how do you promote and encourage unity
in a religious organization, especially as there can be a lot
of competition and vying for the shake or teacher's attention. So
that is part of the tests of the student of knowledge
is that there will be a lot of competition for the attention of
the shoe.
And, and people's intention could go sideways, they can be
disheartened.
But I once brought this up with a shift from Boston. He was Moroccan
and he said Allah Tada does not bring you into His path of
knowledge without testing you. Part of the tests is that there's
competition. There's all sorts of intentions going astray. There's
ways that you could feel less than all things that are going to test
your intention.
Right? Especially if you're like came out of a Holika that had like
five people in it. Everyone loves everyone, right? Then you go to a
school, there's 500 people in it. nobody even cares who you are. Are
you there to be cared for and loved and padded? Are you there
for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala put your head down and
remember your intention. Don't leave
don't leave unless there's, you know, some other issue that would
be but if it's just a matter of like those emotional outs, aspects
purifier intention, put your head down do your job.
Ze Kuhn says
What advice would you give parents of a mentally disabled child? We
are hopeful for the cure but Allah knows best to be quite honest with
you.
We should ask somebody who has
experience with this, it the amount of Sabra is just something
else and I would for dealing with healthy kids
I would say there should be shifts and times off. It can't be a
constant
nonstop Okay, there have to be shift like this is your shift this
is my time off because I can imagine if you have a healthy
child and that's exhausting Imagine then a disabled child
why should we cut off ties if someone is on set if someone is a
facet in open public shameless sinner, we don't keep their
company
but this is even more than that. This is harm someone is harming
somebody facet for themselves that's your business. Right but
someone is harming somebody then are keeping ties with them and
being friendly like that is almost like we're letting it slide. So
you should stay away from Australia someone involved in sad
you get on their bad side, they do some sad on you. So very quietly
without making noise. So move away from this relationship as my my
advice.
Had enough says you can get a smartwatch for kids instead of a
smartphone. I did that for my little brother. He can only text
and call and navigate. We can track his location. And there is
no web browser.
Okay, this is really good. I didn't even realize this.
Okay, I didn't realize this
I'm going to share this with people
but how do they do it with in terms of Wi Fi?
smartwatch.
How do you text it? Oh, what do you pay for it? You pay for the no
but but you pay for a plan
right? If you're if you're on the street for example if you're out
you pay for the plan right? I got like just like a phone because
without Wi Fi right
that's a good piece of advice there thank you very much
so here no not at all.
So he has meaning maybe with a hair so he is meaning someone who
stays up late
Yeah.
US yeah like well, sir holder who's with us? But so he may be
someone who stays up late. Or maybe someone who gets up in the
Sahara Sahara is less third of the night.
Like that maybe what that because we in Egypt they named sod.
Yeah. Meaning the last third of the night. Yeah.
Because Sahara and Sahara they have the same meaning in that you
can't see what's happening. Last sort of lesser than that you can't
see and see how you can't see the harm.
That's why people are so freaked out about sad, sad because he
can't see the harm.
Muhammad Khan will you do an MBA episode and mathematics life?
Maybe one day events you're going to do the 40 minutes
let's see what else we have here
if the person you want to marry says they are not ready, says had
enough. And you have the desire How do you know when to reach back
out? You got to convince them. You're the predator. You got to
convince them I'm not ready. Okay, give up put my tail between my
legs and go back into my cave and cry. No, we keep convincing them.
One of the reasons people love other people is that the person
loves you first. They won't stop they keep coming after you their
heart will change
and in the hello I'm saying not like you're texting her you're
going after her know like you keep knocking on the door. He keep
talking her mom talk to her dad talk to her brother. Go again.
Visit with your family. Right maybe predators like in the in the
me to era is not a great word. But I mean, you're the one going after
them. Right? Not sexual predator obviously. But you're the one who
has to go after them.
What does Allah mean says Moheb by all those who believe in god among
Jews, Christian savings will there have the reward with our Lord?
Yes, those in the past before the prophethood
All right, next question.
How's the film says it's an
RMBs without a marriage question. That's true. And one of the sunnen
is to try to get people this is one of the hardships of life. No
one could get married. It's one of the Sooners to try to make
something like this easy, and it's one of the ways of bliss to try to
make it hard.
How do you know if someone has said, I have no knowledge on this?
Don't ask me.
I really don't know. They use threads they have their own
techniques.
All right.
How should one deal with parents who forbid them?
Or ask them to delay wearing hijab?
Polite disobedience.
You are obligated to and to obey your Lord before you obey your
parents. If you're afraid of your parents, be more afraid of your
Lord. The consequences of sins are very bad. Allah has created a bad
consequence next to every sin. So be very be more afraid of the
consequence of that than of the consequence of your parents. Yes,
your parents could harm you. But disobedience attached to every act
of disobedience is a far worse harm
had it had enough says I'm in St. Louis, you should actually visit
twice a month but not for marriage
St. Louis
Missouri ever been there?
So what are the coincidences that? You know, the chances to mention
to give our example about St. Louis and then the brothers from
St. Louis.
There is a debate going on between Bushido and Joanna okay. I haven't
I'm not involved. I didn't read didn't follow right. Did you
follow that debate?
Let's see what else we got here
I know the Hanafi is I've seen that in Hanafi fiqh, Allah that
they don't pray dirt before it right before the Zoa
but I've never seen it in the camera here explicitly mentioned
in the early books. American folk.
Yeah, but that is a very short time to very short. It's there was
oil itself. There's a word itself is the time when it's mcru not
before this. What does the word itself
All right, good. They're discussing stuff. Making
themselves go back and look up the right answers. Alright, folks,
last question. Turquoise man is okay to get less sleep
religiously. I would not advise that you're just going to harm
yourself.
Le bhakti says Ali Bella Tolley says, Why did the Prophet disliked
dogs and like cats? It wasn't that he disliked dogs. Just like
because the dog was the friend of the keepers of the cave, right,
those the Seven Sleepers of the cave
as hobble KEF and Allah keeps mentioning the dog, some people
say three, three, and the fourth is the dog five, six was a dog.
seventh, and eighth was a dog. So Allah keeps mentioning the dog. So
the dog has a lot of virtues. I wouldn't say that we can say that
we supposed to hate the dog, nor that the Prophet disliked the dog.
But the prophet disliked one feature of the dog. Two features
which is their noise
and their filth. They're there. They spread sickness. They spread
disease, they spread germs, they're very dirty. They destroy
everything. They urinate wherever they want. No civilized people
should be having dogs everywhere. Right? If you want to be clean,
even today, dog is a destroy your grass. I got a neighbor of mine. I
don't say hello to this guy.
He he this guy walks his dog
and he urinates right on our lawn.
I mean, pull him a little bit let him urinate on the street. Who
cares? He ruins my lawn. Right? So we have a little feud with this
guy. Right?
dog urine it's not no sheep urine is cow urine is all that stuff is
good. But predator urine is not any animal that naturally can eat
meat. It's it's urine is yeah, these jalala they're not there.
Their urine is not good for the grass. have the decency or
ate all the American dog owners. They go over the top to make sure
they don't harm you. This guy he's Indian. So these guys, they scoop
them up. I see the guy walking with a scooper. Another guy he
puts on a glove, and he picks up it's pathetic, right? He picks up
the poop of his dog. This guy knows just we're not in India
here, right? Take your dog somewhere else, and urinate
somewhere else. So that's why this word element of the prophets I
sudden did not like about the dog and he liked the cats because the
cat was clean. Doesn't make a lot of noise. It's
a nice keeps you company.
Alright,
ladies and gentlemen.
We are wrapping up right here.
May Allah subhanaw taala grant us all a blessed weekend May Allah
subhanho wa Taala
grant everybody here.
He died in our hearts. May Allah subhanaw taala make the man sweet
