Lillah wa Salatu was Salam ala Rasulillah while early he was
being a woman who Allah, welcome everybody to the Safina society
nothing but facts live stream. Gorgeous and sunny Tuesday in the
great state of New Jersey.
As a summer really is winding down, which is always a sad thing,
but to fall is always nice in the beginning of the school year is
always nice.
As usual, Tuesdays we go into Tafseer that's what we are
covering on Tuesday. We always cover tough see it and we're on
sudut a stuff, okay.
All right, we're on suited to stuff and we'll get to that right
away and then we'll open up for QA and see whatever other issues that
we got going on here because there's always something
now, I'm gonna shoot on a dream with cloud and Musella Comey he
called me limit to doing any work at dalla Munna and near Rasulullah
Hideki.
First of all, what is the ruling on saying Sadhak Allahu Allah,
even when someone recites Quran, it's a bit ah, that is you could
say
MOBA or Hassan, because Allah says in the Quran, called sada cola.
But he doesn't say specifically when to say it. Right. And it's
come upon as order of the OMA.
Right that does say, so the colada the after the recitation.
So the saying that it is an innovation is correct. But what is
the ruling on such an innovation, particularly one that the entire
OMA has adapt adopted? Why? Because we want to separate
between when we're reciting and when and when we're talking. So
you may see a video going out these days
that saying that this is a reprehensible innovation. Okay.
So that's basically the summary of that is
from sudents le Emraan Khalsa kala has nothing to do with finishing
the recitation of the Quran. But it is something that it's a Feisal
of or a falsehood, really, between recitation and regular speech,
another way to divide between your speech and the Quran is silence.
Just to stay silent. This is what the Prophet used to do on a Salatu
was Salam. However,
what if you need to speak right away?
So in that respect, it is good to have a false ID. And what is it
better is to say that it's obligatory. At that point, it
becomes a reprehensible innovation to say that you're obligated to do
something, or to claim that there is a special reward for that
phrase at that time, when there isn't. So though that's where it
becomes a reprehensible innovation, to believe that to
believe that it's obligatory or to believe that it's
even specifically rewarded. That's not acceptable for us.
We'll call him Musa Call me when Prophet Musa alayhis salam said to
his people, people, why do you harm me? The way you're harming?
Why are you attacking me? Well cut down and when I need Rasulullah
alaykum, and you have full knowledge that I'm Allah's
messenger to you. This is cognitive dissonance and cognitive
dissonance is a mental habit. It's a habit that between your mind and
your behavior, and people transmit cognitive behaviors.
All behaviors are transmitted, okay?
It's transmitted, you live with a group of people who behave in a
certain way and act a certain way. And that's who you are. That's who
you're with your whole life. Well, guess what you're going to be just
like that unless you become consciously aware of it. And you
go against it.
Okay
with that it Kahina Raimo Bill ADRA. We're Rasul rasuluh you are,
the more you're thorough, either one ad hoc, a man whom an ad hoc
and so when they what is the result of when they
accused Prophet Musa today's Salam
of being not manly? They accused him of having that his
MIT private part was not right. Why did they do that? Because he
never used to bave their user base with them.
He's never used to take his his izhar off, whereas it was halal
for the bene of surah. Eel
and the Christians and Jews and Christians for the men to be naked
and bathe together. Why? Because it was like a rock
I guess and it stayed that way. Because they, they were living as
you know
nomadically traveling around the desert. So when they found a lake
or a river, they would be then it all together. Okay.
And so that would became permitted for them, but it was not permitted
for a profit. And Sydenham was to refuse to do that he would bathe
by himself.
And no one would see his aura. So they started to accuse him of
things. Then Allah caused the situation to happen where Prophet
Musa was bathing alone. And yet a rock came and he had hung his his
job. On a tree bridge, a rock came and attached on behind the soap,
and pulled the job off the tree bridge. And the rock continued to
Big Stone, I guess,
traveled down
the stream. So Sedna, Musa went after it, but when he got there,
the water became shallow.
And so he had to momentarily come up and claim his job from off the
rock. And at that time, there were all the venues sort of heated, the
men were sitting there.
And they were able to see his full body. And not only did he not have
the sickness that they had, but as Allah honors his MBA and makes
them worthy of being followed, they found his body to be perfect.
And we know how much these prophets fasted.
So it's, it's
not far fetched the concept that there's no fat on his body. We
know he fasted 40 days and 40 nights, the special fast of
profits, no food, no water, 40 days, 40 Nights, this is not
fasting the daytime and eating the nighttime, no diet, no food at
all. So no fat on that body. And that's all you need, really to eat
to have like an amazing figure. And then any amount of manual
labor that you do, moves those muscles and strengthens them and
makes them bigger so and we know that they're all doing manual
labor, just just move, walk with a camel walk with a horse, right, do
some shepherding, you're gonna exert a lot of energy, you're
gonna use your muscles. So once you shred the body of all that
fat, then all of a sudden you have a sculpture. And that's how Allah
created the human being. Right? Now, that's why some friends of
mine who were
I went to visit them one time, and I saw I hadn't seen them for a
long time.
And like two out of five of them, were just completely transformed.
I said, what had gone into you guys?
And they said, Oh, we got a coach.
And I said, Well, you guys running you guys bodybuilding. He said,
No, none of that. He said, It's all at the table. It's all about
the food. And they go into this macro philosophy. And these guys
bought scales, and they walk around with scales, measuring the
food that they eat.
Right, and they followed this coach for a year, they followed
him to the tee. And I'm always I'm always into these these
burdensome, unnatural
methods of doing things because it's not something you can
sustain. And then they one of them didn't sustain. He's like, I'm
walking around with a scale all the time. It's sort of absurd. And
then putting in an app. I eat an apple. I hate
Turkish delight, right? I mean, it's not practical, right? So. So
one guy left it, the other guy sort of stuck with it.
But they were they didn't do anything physical. Like there was
no running, no lifting, no push ups, no, nothing, just Cut an
excess calories. And it's the the philosophy is that if you're if
you can calculate how much how much calories you spend in a day,
then you just intake just 100 calories less than that. 250
calories less than that. That's it. All right. And then they were
getting, we're just shredding fat over the course of the next year.
And so they became like that. So a lot of times it's just overeating.
Right. And but the point being back to this Tafseer is that they
saw
how amazing the body of their profit was. And this is a common,
didn't it be? This is as an honor to the that profit that and it's
also that people tend to want to follow successful people. Right?
And this is why many, many prophets, they have everything of
the dunya. Oftentimes, temporarily, like people want to
follow
people who are successful physically, financially in
marriage. That's where you want to follow. So no profit was
physically outside of the scope of what would be considered
physically acceptable. So there was
No, for example, I don't want to make anyone feel bad, but there
was no for example, obese profit, there was no short profit. There
was no
too tall of a profit. That is like odd. Right? There was no
excessively scrawny profit. So none of that the profits always
came within the average. But within that average, they were
excellent, like within what is considered good, the average of
what human beings considered that this is the leader I want to
follow.
And so but what was the punishment?
A bunny is when they went against their profit in this manner.
Well, how to jazz that was a jazz that will say it's insane to me,
which is that was say it say it to me. Allah says in the Quran, the
result of a sin is that you will do another sin. That's that's
your, your punishment. So when their heart went astray, and they
did this to their Prophet, or a pseudonym, ALLAH SubhanA, WA, tada
led their hearts astray, Fela Mazatrol Azova localu. But when
you're that sick, that you're going to say, you're going to
accuse your Prophet after he, let's say he's not even a prophet.
Let's say he's someone who saved your life from a car crash.
And then he does have a sickness. You don't see it. He does have a
flaw. Let's say, That's embarrassing. You don't say it.
You just stay silent. Right? That's a normal person.
Okay, and here you have a messenger who saved your entire
people from slavery brought you out into freedom, and yet you're
going to start making up claims about him. So the Prophet Musa de
Sena as a result of this ends up
sorry, the venue is threatened as a result of that ends up going
more astray. Okay. For the Mazhar who
as aka localu Boom, bow. You're gonna go like this to your profit
or your punishment, more waywardness certain things you
just don't make it up. Minor sins, you just make it up with a good
deed major since you make it up with Toba. But this dishonor and
disrespect of your messenger you're out okay for the Messiah
who when they want to stray like this Zakah Locodoco
11 Matata cool haka be either interview him at a local Luba
hermandad, Huck, now that they went this route, their heart
doesn't see the truth anymore.
Their heart always wants to go against the truth in any way,
shape and form. Wala who lay their common philosophy, when you have
an individual habit in a people and it spreads because the whole
people did something or they the leadership did something, it
trickles down. It becomes like a Hallmark and you transmit that
generation after generation. Unless there's a whole generation
wide Toba
which did happen. The followers of Prophet doet were purified. Those
were the best of the Benny's right. Prophet Musa is the great
messenger, but his followers were no good.
Just as the generation his his specific followers who believed in
him and followed him, like Prophet use, or use Shabbat noon, he's not
a prophet, but he was a great follower.
They were excellent. But the generation that he lived in there
were no good.
It's the Benny of surah. Ian are not like the Sahaba of the
prophets of Allah when he was Sanlam. In that every one of them
is idle. Every one of them is a movement. No, the bene Hassan II
had, they had followers that were completely terrible.
Their profits, if they had followers who killed their
profits?
who rejected their profits? Okay, so they don't they're not to be
compared that we would never say something about the Salah, the
prophets of Allah when he was in, but we may say those things about
the generation to whom a Hebrew Prophet was sent. So the specific
followers and the pious followers of Prophet Musa are one thing and
they were few. But that generation was a whole nother thing. Now
profit dude, let's turn the page now profit, dilute and profit
dudes time it was the opposite. They were excellent. Like the
whole generation was superb.
And then when that generation died out, another generation came, they
were less than that. It came at a time of profits today man they
were good and then towards the end of his reign, and he reigned a
long time. They were terrible again. Great, they were so fat and
by the success and the wealth.
Well Allah hula deal Coleman philosophy and Allah calls them
philosophy. See, they are the are they are not the generation of
Prophet Musa. Are they not the people who will kept his company
and prayed behind him all day, but Allah calls them festivity.
Whereas you have nothing like that towards the Sahaba is one of
The
necessities almost of Islam is that the original generation of
Sahaba were all dual, with the exception of 12. hypocrites, whose
names were given to one of the Sahaba are they filmed in Yemen?
Right?
If the Sahaba of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam could
not be trusted then how do we know where we get our deen from? Right?
If the first cut of the chain is messed up, then the whole thing is
going to be messed up. So the first chain first link I should
say, of the chain in Islam is all acceptable. When you see us a
hobbit in a link of a chain you never doubt him.
Good.
After that you do investigations
call us the judge Yanni. Laya Demond Saba coffee, let me know
first.
Well Lola, their common philosophy, it has a couple of
meanings Allah does not guide the people who are profligate meaning
when you do acts of profligacy, profligate acts, you're
essentially denying divine guidance and the divine guidance
will not reach you. As the judge says, Allah does not guide those
whom he knows where philosophy, but this is not something that we
can act upon, because divine knowledge has nothing we have no
divine knowledge, we never know what it is. So why even go there,
but the way that we can act upon it is provided that a person if
that person is doing acts of Prophets, prophecy and and sins
and filth, then the divine guidance will be close to that
person.
So therefore, if you want divine guidance, first thing fixer
behavior. If you want divine guidance to fix your behavior, you
want the sun to shine on a mirror, move the clouds away from the
mirror, move the objects away from them if there's a light coming on
a mirror, move your hand from in front of the mirror move the
objects from in front of the mirror.
And those are the sins and that's why it's so important to live a
moral and upright basic life without since we're going to close
off guidance from ourselves if we live that life and that's one of
just one reason why youth is just stay away from campuses.
Campus to me was one of the most difficult it's like it's got to be
the one of the most difficult college campus gotta be one of the
most difficult places to keep any sense of discipline and focus
because you're just surrounded by all sorts of
young people craziness.
Where the color is no matter him now ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada turns to
Prophet day seven Muslim so if you notice here, the surah begins with
the companions of the Prophet now the companions of Musa now we go
to Prophet ASA even Medina. With Carla is of no Maria met. Yeah,
Benny Surah Isla in the Rasulullah in a co op in Israel, I'm a
messenger of Allah.
sent to you, Musa Jacqueline Albania, Delia, I confirm
the Torah minute Torah. And I give you good news when Washington
bureau suiting yet to imbibe this morning. And I'm giving you good
news about a prophet coming. Nate by the name of Ahmed, why don't we
go and get checked out
and have him talk about Muhammad in the Bible? Why don't we get
that? And why don't we maybe get, let's say
a Christian, one of these recently converted Christians. Right?
And maybe put them on together and have a discussion about that.
Right. That's a good idea. Because I'm always interested in the
recently converted people who are you know, posting their stuff on
YouTube?
Right. I think we're what Oh, for two
invitations.
Yeah.
Yeah, well for two
for the Mazatrol
we passed that we're now on Well, le foofy Heelan MOBA
and Eddie
Al hamdu Wallah which had
when I was when I had to whom I know MOBA, Minh unfair al al MBS
Kulu, whom hammered una de la as always jell o UK federal Hamden.
Lilla So,
the name Ahmed the lf there means that he is the most qualitatively
grateful to his Lord Muhammad is from Hamed
Hamed, word Hamed is to be grateful and praise were praising.
Right, let's say grateful and praiseful if praised for
was a word but let's just say it's a it's a word. So Mohammed
pertains to the qualitative gratitude and praise
of the prophets of Allah who said Unto Allah and Allah has basically
announced to the world that no one will praise Him and be grateful to
him
more than the Prophet in a better way, than the Prophet Muhammad
salah. What is difference between Ahmed and Mohammed? No, now
Mohammed is the most quantitatively praising of his
Lord. So nobody will praise Allah and glorify Him more in amounts
and quantity than Muhammad Sallallahu. It was. So that's why
in the dunya, his name is Mohammed. And the Acuras name is
Ahmed. Okay, his name is both in both worlds. But he is first
called Mohammed in this life in the ACARA. He's known most as
admet. First and Muhammad second.
He's also praised Yeah, yeah. Mohammed is the one who was
praised in this life. Yes. That by itself is a prophecy.
Yeah.
Just objectively speaking,
who has who who is spoken well of in the world more than the Prophet
Muhammad peace be upon not even Jesus, not even Jesus. You go to
for Christmas. No mention of Jesus, Santa Claus. Santa Claus
has mentioned more than Jesus on Christmas. And they have to have a
movement bring Christ back into Christmas. We don't have something
like bring Muhammad back into the, you know, Islam or something like
that. Then Christmas has his name to like, yeah. Like, Yeah, where's
Christmas has his name in it, and they don't talk about him. And
they're talking about shopping, and winter holidays. It says, you
know, atheists want Christmas now. But they want to call it winter
holiday? Or what is it Winter Solstice or something? Right? They
want to give it a pagan view, essentially. And ultimately, the
the lights that are put up in the winter, that none do with
Christmas, it had nothing to do paganism. lights going up in the
winter was a Scandinavian habit to stave off depression. And they
used to get these long nights. And of course, you go north enough?
The whole winter's night. Right. So what would demarcate what would
actually brighten their spirits up and also give them a way to walk
to, like they needed to physically walk around. And there was no harm
in those in the Scandinavian areas of putting hundreds of 1000s of
candles? Because if a candle would fall outdoors, where is it going
to fall into?
into the snow, right? So if you go into Scandinavian life way back,
the light aspect, and the candle aspect didn't have to do with any
pagan ritual it had to do with the winter, the long nights, the need
for light number one, but also the need for something to lift your
spirits up. Because it's just all darkness all the time. And candles
do have this ability, and little tiny lights for some reason, or
whatever it has the ability to lift people's spirits up, people
like to walk into an area with a lot of little lights in it. And
what is our take on this in Islam? It depends on your intent. If
you're intending to imitate, with by the use of a candle or a light,
then that's an innovation, or that's sinful. But if you're just
intending to use lights for functional reasons, or for
aesthetic reasons, then it's acceptable. Then you go all over
the Islamic world and they did use lights in different ways. For
example, in Egypt is very famous to put up little tiny,
called fennesz little tiny felonies, right, which are lamps
hanging up lamps, so it wasn't a candle because that's not safe.
See, everyone's different it out in the Scandinavia, you could put
an open flame, no problem. If it falls, it's gonna fall on on snow.
It's got to be out. You can't do that in Egypt. So they had to
close it up. And they put it in lanterns like little lanterns
everywhere in the month of Ramadan to beautify the streets and to
signify that Alright, so you got so you have all these different
traditions that human beings putting up lights in different
ways.
So the Christian Christians, I don't think they and they
supposedly worship Jesus, no one's more disrespected. They just
respect them all the time they're making they're making. They have a
play about there's a there was a playout about the story of Jesus.
But oh, the biller to even say it, but Jesus and the disciples,
they're homosexuals. What the heck, and it plays like ongoing
every year they played, but nobody stopped this. Nobody like toured
the theater down. Nobody did anything. What is wrong with you
people? Right. And then you go on so you went from from worse.
should bring you to he's not even involved in Christmas anymore.
Right? Whereas the Muslims have kept him he's the Prophet He's not
God, he's the Prophet right. And yet the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam is more praised. If we just had the event and nothing
else. Imagine this remove all the poems, the Buddha
everything else the Manuel did all that remove it off nights of Salah
on the Prophet remove all that just the then they would outdo any
other prophets
and the Salah, just then a comma Salah it will be completely out
doing any other prayers, like who's even in the conversation,
besides Muhammad and Jesus? No. Nobody, like Jesus like they
mentioned his name, but they don't say like it Salaam. Yeah, so
that's not really praise. That's not praising his name, but he's
ever you have no concept of saying peace be upon him.
And he's your God.
How about this? They don't even name JESUS outside of Latin
America. Well, if you love him so much, right? Wait, but it's
confusing. Wait, he's a he's a god. So you don't name someone
God, right? But then again, why in Latin America, they do name Hey,
Soos all the time. But you would think that throughout these
countries, some nickname of Jesus would be mentioned, right as a
name, that people name their kids but no,
Mohammed already is overtaken as one of the most common names. You
go into England and you go into their birth of 2022 What were the
names of the kids born in 2022. And you're almost going to look it
up now. Most common name like in 2022 or whatever. And you go in
England, and it was like Muhammad, right? Every other year. It's
Mohammed. Right?
So actually, the most common name in the whole world would be
Muhammad Lee I heard recently because Lee in China is one of the
most common last names and Muhammad being the most common
first name Okay.
Well, I think it's it shouldn't be first but like the data is not
really there. The data is not there because it's spelled in so
many different ways.
But there were these
British newspapers that put it out there like this is false like
Oliver how many I don't think I even know when Oliver Oliver
please come on. Why would you what is why would you Yeah, this debt
data is totally messed up. I know zero Why would anyone even name
that name? It's not there's white person to how many Oliver's you
know how many behind Exactly. Ask any rat. The only Oliver you know
is Oliver Twist.
Oliver
cheap. Okay, now let's continue. So Mohamed Jun, hammered on Lulu
Zoa gel kulula. MBA, Muldoon, mahal XR Hamdulillah. All the
profits are praised. They praise their Lord and He is the most
all of the MBAs he says are Mohammad doon all of them are
praiseworthy. Okay.
And he is the most in recipient of this praise. Okay.
Then Allah subhana wa Tada speaks saying Fela majha home built by
Unity palha this room will be in woman Allah movie Minister Allah
he will kellyboat Islam Allah Allah Allah Docomo la demean Yah
Yah
and continues doesn't give much Tafseer for seven through eight.
Then he goes to 10 Yeah, you're letting me know hola de la
commodity Jonathan tinggi commoner them and him but let's read at
least seven through eight who is more oppressive than the one who
makes up lies about Allah subhana wa Tada Will you die a little
Islam while he's being called to submit to him? Will lower leg
there will come a vitamin and this is for false prophets, false
claimants liars about God's religion and that includes the
innovators in within Islam. Okay, the innovators within Islam saying
Allah teaches us something that he didn't teach. How do we know what
Allah taught? Well, we have a book and that book is in a language
Simple as that.
We go by the book, Someone recently asked me a having a pop
my relative apostate. What do I do? So go buy the book. Go buy the
book is what I advise you to do. We don't have ties with apostates.
That's hard and very difficult. Yes, but that doesn't mean that
the advice is on sound. Right. What do you do if you get gangrene
in your foot? You cut it off. Right?
And don't say oh, do it.
Before talking about it. First of all, that's not necessarily the
case. You don't always have to do something in order to talk about
it, some things you do, but if it's a ruling in Islam,
you transmitted, right, is going through red lights wrong. Yes.
Doesn't mean that you don't ever go through a red light. Okay? Now,
I'll tell you when you do have to do it before you talk about it,
when it's a specific path, or a journey,
right? Like,
how to become a doctor. The journey of medical school, I don't
want someone except someone who's done it to give me advice on it.
Right? So that's one thing but if it's a ruling of Allah subhanaw
taala sin it's a law.
And the law on apostates? Is that once someone apostates out of
Islam,
I'm sorry to say we don't have any to do with them anymore.
Okay.
It it people in our culture will understand that. If you say, my,
my cousin, he's now an avowed conspiracy theorist who says that
the Holocaust never happened.
And if it should happen, it should happen. Now. You know, who
actually said that? Roseanne Barr
She's much known. Right. But what happened? She Roseanne Barr Of
course he's trying to just get attention or something. She said
no one died in the Holocaust. But I wouldn't mind if they died. Now.
Of course she's Jewish right? So she could she gets a pass I guess
for saying that. But when someone says that in our culture today
what do we do with them?
Do we not does not everybody cut them off? You will never be on
Netflix you will never be on NBC, you will never be on ABC you will
never get a contract. Okay, you get cut off completely. Well,
likewise, in a world with different values, okay.
Such as submission to Allah when someone turns against Allah
subhana wa Tada openly and brazenly tells you not a Muslim
anymore, the ruling is alright, you go deal with I'm not going to
go after you. You do your thing over there. I gonna live my life
over here. Okay. And I'm here to tell you just for our information
we did end up doing it in our family. And hopefully we never
have to do it again. Right? But we did do it. So don't sue us. No one
should come up to me and say oh, don't tell us something until this
you do it. Okay, we did do it. And it was the best decision to okay,
you caught our eyes you cut and cauterize right so that that
influence doesn't affect the rest of the body
okay, so that is if stata Allah Allah
saying lies about Allah and they're going to be from small
lies to great lies depending on the nature of what what has been
said.
Then Allah speaks about them UD doing illegal to fatal nor Allah.
They wish to put out the light of Allah the guidance that Allah
established be FYI him with their mouths. Wala whom would say munari
Well okay read carefully rune. And in verse wala who moutain MINOURA
Whoa, whoa, okay, read carefully, that Allah Tada will complete the
spread of his light, whether they like it or not. Okay.
All right. Are we allowed to do Dawa to apostate family members?
What do you mean by Dawa? Yes, you're allowed to invite them to
Islam. But this is not going to be like, come over for some steaks.
And we're friends and we're buddies. Okay, that's not going to
be allowed
Oh lady, Ursula Rasool who will who will hug he's the one who sent
His messenger
with the guidance and the true religion to manifest it over all
other religions. This one maybe we should have brought that to Javad.
Right? Do you hit a who Allah dini? Clearly he will? Okay. He
had machete Cool. All right. So
we have brought this messenger with the religion of truth to make
it manifest over all other faiths to make it clear that this face is
the truth, and these other ways are untrue. Alright.
I'm telling you, anytime that someone, quote unquote, has issues
with a ruling in Islam, shift it into the value
into the values
of their era right now. Okay. Right now you got a relative who
says, I believe in a white relative said, I believe in saying
the N word. And we should spread it and talk about it like, well,
we should be tolerant. Well, what happens to that person in every
field of life, the whole ecosystem will completely shut him out
completely. He will be sealed off the family
The job, the media, everybody, he will be sealed off. If that's the
platform that he wants to go on.
And then you say we won't be tolerant.
Why don't you accept freedom of speech? Why don't you accept this
that and the other. So take it to the sacred cows of that culture.
And say when when someone goes against that, what do you guys do?
And here we have a dean with his own sanctity. Okay, on things that
are sacred.

because they, they want to do the action to please Allah and to save
themselves. So Allah says, I'll Should I not tell you about an
action if you do it, you'll be saved.
Took me knowing that Allah He was sued, he went to jail. He didn't
if he said beat Allah, you believe in Allah and His messenger and
strive and this is one thing, if you're gonna live in the West, you
need to be striving.
If you're going to live in these countries where the cultural wave
against us is so strong, then you need to be in a complete state of
striving. Every day you have to participate in the advancement of
your deen every single day, some way shape and form. Okay? You need
to be able to say today, I added one thing, one benefit to the OMA,
like I helped this one kid, or I gave this charity,
BM Wiley como unphysical, with your wealth and with your bodies
with yourself. So some people don't have wealth, but what they
do have is time and they go volunteer in the masajid or some
organization.
Of course, in that time, they're talking about the army, and you
die for the sake of Allah.
dehumanize them in any
meeting with data compiled on liquid and Quinton dalla moon,
this is better for you. Okay, when a regular person says, This is
good.
Right, then you will have a concept of that. But when the
creator of the whole universe says something is good, than how good
is it?
If a kid comes up to you, a five year old kid comes up to you and
says, My dad on my grandpa gave me a lot of money.
How much do you think it is? $20. Bill? Right, maximum $100 bill.
Grandpa comes on eat slips $100 Bill, maximum. Right. But when the
creator of the what if a, let's say
general of an army says our budget for the war is a lot. How much?
You think that budget is 100 million dollars.
Right? So who's speaking? That's the question who was saying that
this is good.
And he cuz sometimes people say like the ad the adjective that
Allah uses is muted. Right? You will be saved from the hellfire
and enter paradise and this is very good. At the height on lako.
This is good.
And they think that it this is a muted adjective.
But who is speaking that's the question. A child tells you I have
a lot of money.
Or Warren Buffett is telling you this is a lot of money. How much
this is not it's the same word right? But who's speaking is the
question the same word, a lot of money. But who's the speaker? Is
the question hence what Allah subhanaw taala says that the
compiler can This is better for you. That's the creator of the
universe saying that good.
And good. kuntum tatelman yellowfin Lakota, Nova comb, all
of your wrongs will be forgiven so that all the there's always a
kickback. When I do a wrong action, it's going to boomerang
back to me. That's forgiven. So there's no boomerang coming back
to me.
Welcome Jeannette integrity mentality

another thing that you may like
whoa curato head Boonah an additional benefit. What is that a
different additional benefit? Okay?
You would like it and will hola hola agile, the thing that you
want now. Got nostril Minh Allah, He will fetch Fatone buddy. And
this is where the immediate rewards from Allah subhanaw taala
are more motivating to people. The perm the permanent and far away a
reward is better for people. What's better, eternal paradise or
victory right now, of course, eternal paradise. But what's a
greater motivator for people? Victory right now. You tell
somebody
strive today
for a reward I'm going to give you in 10 years.
Or strive today for a reward I give you tomorrow.
Human nature likes what it was I'm gonna get quickly or I'm gonna get
soon. Strive today.
And I'll pay you
for a full month.
But next year, right? You get 30 paydays
next year, or strive now you get paid tomorrow?
Most people,
especially if you're in need of food, now, you're gonna say no,
I'll strive and I'll get paid tomorrow because I don't have food
on the table today. Right? People tend to have a need for
satisfaction now right here in this world. And then they
they don't want to postpone reward. Well the benefit for us is
that if you do something for tomorrow, you get the reward
tomorrow and in the future.
No sort of min Allah victory from Allah will fetch on creep and an
opening. Fat has a beautiful word because there's always something
that you want, it's closed, the doors closed, I want this but the
door is closed.
But Allah subhanaw taala says is going to be open for you.
So human beings have this desire for immediate and instant
gratification. And that is some one of the ways that we motivate
ourselves to act in this in the deen. And it's not something that
we consider is a bad thing. Right? Instant gratification. Is is bad
in laziness and since but it's when it's instant gratification,
like I want the reward from Allah of Allah now of this, this dunya
first. And the beauty of that is that the more you do that,
eventually you become satisfied. And now you're acting out of
gratitude out of sugar, which is one of the highest levels of a bed
is to worship Allah, out of an act of gratitude. You have given me so
much
call Kelby who are not through Allah Quraysh in specific of
course in general victory for for everybody for anybody in whatever
it is they're seeking help in analysis it is help etc.
Essentially, divine aid knows it is divine aid. But when Allah
helps you you will be victorious to guarantee so nothing has been
translated as victory
because of that's the the guaranteed results although the
actual meaning is divine eight

Kuno unsought, on Lulu, se meaning
the unsought of those who seek victory.
Good. Those who seek victory in those who seek to give victory
to Allah. How do you give victory to Allah? is by giving victory to
his religion, fighting for his religion. That's how you give
victory to Allah subhanaw taala.
Yeah, for the merger
so

however unilateral salah the disciples of a stubborn Muslim are
praised in this. They said we
are the supporters of Allah for m and atheism and many astrayed waka
Philip BIFA okay. So those disciples believed and the rest
became enemies of faith and kafirs and life and Benny's raid were
covered up by for with Eric No Lamar, Rafa raffia Farakka co
Musala has Faruk after se now Isa was elevated and how was he
elevated? He was told and commanded to go and rest in a
certain area he went and he rested and he slept there. And he was
he was elevated. Okay.
So
our manifested here above, are we saying after the death of Asa,
they divided into three camps. Phil katoon, Carlu can Allah who
first up for two fair, he was ALLAH and he is now raised he was
a manifestation of God on the earth. And of course we hold that
to be impossible. Rationally incomprehensible with till eight
unacceptable Well Phil o'clock God who can ignore Allah for Allah
Allahu Allahu La he was the son of Allah so Allah raised him to
himself, Will Ferrell call God who can Abdullah SULI for Rafa who la
he won't be known. A group said no, he is God's slave and Prophet.
And Allah and messenger and Allah raised him up, put up i Kulu
Federica to minimum, if a two minute nurse each one had a group
of followers, fuck data loo for the hara tell Pharaoh cottonelle
care for attorney I mean, they all fought.
And the first two groups had victory over the third group had
to bath Allah Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam for the horrid
and 50 Mina Alkaff era for the Erica Carlota you're Latina
Avenue.
Oh, sorry for a year then Alladhina amanu Allah doing
fastball hitting, alright. And then until Allah sent Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam who uphold that he was that Jesus was
Jesus was a prophet and messenger. And now and then they had victory
over the Christians and the Jews. And hence, now that saying, and
that's the meaning of for a Jaedyn Alladhina amanu we gave victory to
those who believed in the truth that Jesus is a prophet, not a
god. I do with him upon their opponents for us, but hola headin.
And now the truth that Jesus is a prophet had become stronger. And
of course, we may not understand that because it seems like the
Christian world is stronger than the Muslim world. The Christian
world was never stronger than the Muslim world. Only when Christians
became atheists. Did they dominate over Muslims? Okay, just to keep
that right. And only when the Muslims stopped practicing their
law and abiding by their law and obeying their God and their
profit. Did they start losing battles and losing out to these
other civilizations, but Christians as practicing
Christians, have never as a nation been dominant over the Muslims? So
yes, they had a Latin Empire for a measly 100 years. They won a
couple of crusades one crusade and then they lost 12 straight. Okay.
And in Spain, yes, they took Spain but what is Spain in comparison to
the rest of the whole Muslim Ummah? He just has one little
country, right? One country
and how long did it take for them to get it but
Got it. So they had just like today, the Jews, what are they
have of the OMA of Islam? One small piece of land. Okay, which
not to minimize what's happening there. But we're talking
geographically got geographically one piece of lint
in comparison to what? Geographically. So this is stance
to be is correct for a dinner levena Amma No, we supported those
who believed in the truth about Jesus that he's a prophet and
messenger I do with him upon their opponents, those who say he's God
or the son of God, first of all hold on headin and they are now
dominant over them. So it has always been that the practicing
Muslims have always dominated over Christians. And the modern time is
not a dominance over Christianity over Islam. Its dominance over
atheism over sinful disobedient Muslim nations.
Because when the British came, they didn't bring Christianity.
When the French came, they didn't bring Christianity they came with
secular law. They came with a set of secular values, they came with
a whole secular system of nation states. They did not come with the
cross. Their uniforms didn't have crosses on them. Nor was that what
their empire stood for.
All right, that ends
soon at a surf which takes us next week to Seurat.
Okay.
And move to Hina and or I moved to Hana you the one you want to see,
you can see the way and that's going to be a long, that's going
to take us a while. We're now getting into the longer pseudos
here. Okay, so let's
go put the stuff see it on the side.
What do we have here?
Quick section here
on front reading from this book here.
All right, the divine for critical minds inquiry into God's
existence, our methodology, we are very heavy on Kalam and very heavy
on thicker
and then the fic as much as you can, but the real heaviness is
Kalam because Kalam is essentially the
the defense of the creed, and the rational basis of the Creed in a
world where everyone is trying to convince you of their religion and
clouding up the truth.
So I'm reading here from the Divine for critical minds. And I
need to we need to can we get him on the podcast please? They hands
ad
he's a doctor. So between
patients he can come in,
talk to us. He says those trained in philosophy often say that
physicists should not be delving into philosophy. If they're not
aptly acquainted with it. They may be correct. Edward PhaZZer
described as one of the best contemporary writers on philosophy
by the National Post in his article, Why are some physicists
so bad at philosophy, he humorously exposes physicists at
the cutting edge of logical blunders, because remember, the
physicist the biologists, they emphasize the observable
knowledge, observation as a source of knowledge. They don't give much
worth to reason or transmitted knowledge. Philosophers, they put
reason here, observable knowledge and transmission down here
littoralis within religion, they put the transmitted knowledge
here, and then they put observable facts and reason down here. And
the right way to be is to put them all in order, right? where they
belong. They're all sources of knowledge. The greatest one of
course, being the Quran and the Sunnah. And then it's reason and
then it's observable facts. Okay?
He says here, his reaction to physics professor, Ethan Seagull,
for example, could not be better. Seagull writes, arguments for God
as cause of the universe rests on the assumption that something
can't come from nothing. But given the laws of physics, it turns out
that something can come from nothing.
Bizarre to this feasor writes, is this guy serious? The laws of
physics aren't nothing.
That's just blindingly obvious. Seagull assures us that we can get
something from nothing. All we need to do is add a little
something, ie the laws of physics on real such a basic error.
As a philosopher Seagull is utterly incompetent income
capable of seeing that the most blatant a fallacy staring him
square in the face. So what did he screw up here? What's the foul
when the when the flag is thrown see the Europeans and the
Australians, they don't understand what we're saying, when we say a
flag is thrown, right, they don't know what that is. They got yellow
cards and green and red cards and stuff in in American football,
which is the most popular sport, maybe some people aren't really
happy with that. But American football is the most popular sport
in United States.
When you do something wrong on the field, it's so loud, right, the
whistle isn't enough. They also want to, they need to allow the
play to continue. Okay, they need to the play has to finish.
But in order to signal that a foul has occurred, each referee has a
tennis ball that is wrapped up in a yellow cloth
and tied, and he throws that in the air.
That gives a signal that a foul. Was was was committed. He's they
need to let the play finish, right. Because let's say it's a
foul. It's a foul it's holding.
I'd say it's holding right. By by the offense, but yet he makes the
catch. Right, you add to that, so he needs to let the play finish.
This is the fifth of fouls here. So they throw a flag. So when we
say there's a flag on the play, it's this expression. So you have
to You're learning some Americana here. Okay? You guys, not only
you're leading learning some stuff, see it and month up, you
learn a little bit of, of American culture and American idioms here.
So it's flag on the what is the fat foul that was committed here?
The law of identity, the law of identity once the man said
nothing,
okay, nothing.
He didn't continue his sentiment or his theory with nothingness, he
continued it with the laws of physics right? Does nothing. So
the law of identity is the idea and the concept that when you say
a word, it has that meaning, and it has to continue with that. And
then he just contradicted him self. He then he writes,
he continues, Segal is in good company. If that's the right way
to put it. Stephen Hawking and letter Leonard, Mala Janno are no
more physical, philosophically competent than Seagull is, indeed,
one of their their errors is the same as seagulls. They tell us
that these are the guys who wrote, I think.
I can't remember what the book is called. But it's Hawking's big
book. He says because there is a law, like gravity, the universe
can and will create itself from nothing. It's unreal, that a
Cambridge its his book, The Theory of Everything, or the grand
design, sorry, it's the grand design is unreal.
That a Cambridge professor that anyone who is an adult
not only wrote the sentence, how many people read it and let it
pass? Like didn't the publishers read it? Didn't editors read it?
Don't they have like 10 editors per book? Okay.
Because there is a law like gravity the universe can and will
create itself from nothing ignore for the moment the incoherence of
the notion of self causation. put to one side the question of
whether the physics of their account is correct. Forget about
where the laws of physics themselves are supposed to have
come from. Just savor the manifest contradiction. The universe comes
from nothing because a law of gravity is responsible for the
universe.
For some reason, this particular fallacy seems to be a favorite of
physicists. But feasor doesn't stop a physicists. The Hawking's
the Dawkins is and the Jerry coins of the world have been dancing.
The mire shuffle around their echo chamber for so long, that they can
only over hear each other's mutual congratulations shouted down the
conga line.
Until this child, this child this is universal, until this
childishness is universally treated with the sort of contempt
it deserves. We will not have a sane intellectual culture, one in
which the deepest philosophical theological indeed scientific
questions can be fruitfully debated. Professor Paul Davis,
author of The Best Seller, the mind of God and cosmic jackpot was
my personal reason to be suspicious of physicist comments
on philosophy, David Davies critiqued a number of
philosophical questions. In these books though I enjoyed his writing
very much. I wanted to discuss some of his concerns further I
decided to write Davis, that happens to be the start of the
book you are now reading below. I have
use many of Davey's comments and cosmic jackpot as a basis to
answer queries that people commonly have. Alright, examples
of common philosophy, questions and errors. Okay? Can law create a
universe? All right? Can law create a universe?
Well, where did the law come from?
I mean, it's, it's really basic stuff. We'll cover one of these a
little bit every once in a while. Like could the universe exists
without a cause? All right.
These people.
If the universe came in, haphazardly, like this without no
absolute cause, than any, everything within the universe is
also relative, and contingent. Therefore, your explanation is
also simply relative and contingent and accidental.
Alright, with that, let's move
to today's extended session. comments and questions from
everybody.
How is it on Instagram? You can read me those because I don't I
don't have Instagram anymore. There's nothing, at least on my
iPad. And in the meantime, let me try one of these times.
Turkish Delight covered with rose petals.
It looks like rose petals, cranberries, and it's filled with
pistachios. And it has coconut in it.
Sounds good? Yeah. Interesting. You want one?
So chocolate? Well, yeah, he's saying Chuck was saying how, like,
they're calling it the law of something. So indeed, that there
must be a lawgiver. But like their issue is described necessity. It's
a law itself. So like, they ascribed in a sense, necessarily
being as the law itself. Yeah. So like, really, it's like you
already conceded to what we're saying. Yeah. Right. All you have
to do is like, go like the outcomes razor route and just like
shave off. The accidentals. Yeah, so you say we have a necessary
existence. You have one. What is yours? What is ours? You're just
full of accidental, like, well, we call out Yeah, ours is like,
pretty simple. Right, like outcomes razor. So they, they do
have essentially
a God. They do a lot, but it's like material basically. Yeah. So
it's like, and what is alive? What is a lot? I guess they'll table
it's like the order that things occurring. Right? But you can only
have a law
if you have to. You have material objects to inform you about the
law. Yeah, right. So how are they assuming that the law pre existed
that material material things it's a physical law obviously yeah. So
you need the physical that's a good point.
Some testing Cinda amount of silhouette to read minimum daily
the Sunnah amount of Salawat to read minimum
All right.
This white one gooey white one with hazelnut was not as good as
the rose one with the Pistachios
are people getting me this stuff and putting it on my desk to make
me become fat?
Again, again, hope not eating.
So the amount of Salawat to read minimum while you have in
different methods different Sunon Wacka that's the first question
which method is in the man in the Maliki school?
Which
and Ravi Batool fetcher
are the strongest for the daily salon. Everything after that is
enough enough.
For the HANA fees, there are 12 I believe, right.
For before the hood into after though, our son
right.
So no, son 12. sooner? Yeah. So you have to look in the mat in
your method. But minimum minimum minimum,
minimum bare bone minimum is which which is one or AKA, before
sleeping, however, it's incomplete. It is valid, but it's
the condition to make it complete is to pray to shefa and one
wizard, and never miss the two records before fetch.
All right. Here's another question.
They're asking like, like the root like Salawat on the prophesy.
Salam, I think Salawat on the Prophet Oh, I thought he meant
Sunon
okay, because you said Oh, I see. I see. I see because when he said
to read, I assume that means to pray 300 Salah on the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa Salam is considered the least of much and
allah says remember Allah much.
Ladies and gentlemen, you can be a supporter of the Sufi society
podcast by going to patreon.com/
Safina society also by liking and subscribing to our channel, so
that you can get notifications about when we go live. Maybe you
never know there will come a day where we have multiple shows a day
with a different sheet that we have
a show in the morning or one a program in the middle of the day
and program in the evening like to channel nonstop CNN doesn't shut
off, right?
All right, now let's talk about this question that came here. How
do I send Salah on Salam on the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam. You do this by saying Allahumma salli wa salam ala, that
is the least and simplest. But before you use the pronoun you
must at least mentioned in the name of the prophet in the first
Silla
Allahumma salli ala Sayyidina Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi
wa sallam Allahumma salli wa salam ala thereafter, for the rest of
your silhouettes, as I'm giving you the easiest least number of
syllables
would you marry someone outside your of your nationality? I don't
think nationality is as much as culture.
Because you can have a Pakistani American and a Palestinian
American. And the American part of their upbringing is more in common
than anything else. And then the Desi or the Arab or the Turkish or
the
what have you that part of things. It is a little bit different, but
it's not so hard to it's not the main culture. So are probably the
same in the UK, Somali Mecca to be Pakistani, Bengali, but
ultimately, British, European Western is the dominant culture.
So I'm always more concerned with culture. Because culture is
everything its sense of humor, it's it's what you enjoy eating,
it's things like that. It's your memories to Americans, they went
to probably your schools, same experience in schools, same
experience in college, things like that, those things when they're
shared.
Okay, there's more bonds of bridges to be built.
Pro West says David Berlin skis book, The Devil's delusion is also
worth a read.
If there is no intrinsic reason for something to exist, then it
stands to reason that it must not have existed at some point. Thank
you very much. That's exactly the concept of
ahead. Okay.
Al Howard, in our theater in Kalam, a hadith is a contingent
thing, that there's nothing intrinsically necessary, no
intrinsic reason for this thing existing that at some point, it
didn't exist. And a contingent thing cannot be explained by
another contingent thing. How it came into existence may be
explained by a contingent thing, but its reason for existence is
different from how it came into existence, which is the biggest
difference between theologians
and biologists and scientists, the scientists, when they say Why did
it come into existence, they give you a physical reason of how it
came into existence. But that's not the reason. This is like
someone coming into the kitchen and saying, Why is the pot
boiling?
Why is there a pot boiling on the stove? Look around, right? Why is
there a pot boiling pile pot of water boiling on the stove? When
no one's in the kitchen? Someone says Oh, I know why. Why? Because
there's a fire underneath it. Sending heat up. No, that's not
the reason.
That's the That's how it's boiling. That's not why it's
boiling. Why it's boiling because I'm making macaroni and cheese and
I just stepped out to go to the bathroom. That's why right so
there's a why and there's a how and the scientists seem to every
time the answer a new how they say see we don't need a why
how could you explain how to Watson wouldn't lead to shit?
Because into us to do so making dua to Allah subhanaw taala You're
just saying that I'm offering my love of so and so my followership
of so and so.
Okay, as an offering, just like we give charity as an offering.
That's to us.
When I give when I want something from Allah subhanaw taala What do
you do? I want Allah to answer one of my prayers. What do I do? You
do some good deeds. Tell us so is the good deed that I have believed
in so and so and I love so and so that is a good deed in Islam.
and you are not praying to anybody in those things
that is to us.
Sheikh has one starts on the path of self purification, is it
normal, that smaller sin sting and were you a lot more? And yes, that
is correct that
when a person becomes more in tune to their Creator, even the
smallest acts of disobedience become bothersome to the person,
and that is really an excellent sign of advancement in
consciousness of Allah subhanaw taala that even the least
amount of disobedience will will bother a person.
Some of them said, it's like the believer when he has
an infraction that he committed against his creators law against
Allah subhana wa Tada he feels that there's a mountain on His
head. Whereas the moon if when he does that, he he feels just like
there's a fly on his nose. He just, it's no big deal. It
Starbucks come sit.
How's it going, man? You good?
Question. Sudha tilma is the 116 Allah's asking? I used to wonder,
did you ever ask people to worship you and your mother as gods
besides Allah? Is this talking about the Catholics only?
I believe no, not the Catholics only but also any Christian who
believe that
why have certain ads been abrogated to show the Mercy of
Allah subhanaw taala in taking the believers in gradation.
And to show that a law is not a law because of itself, it's a law
because Allah made it so. So something is a law. And it's good
when Allah says this is the law. When Allah then says, This is no
longer the law, this is the law. That thing now becomes bad and
evil things follow it. And evil result, bad results, follow it.
And this new law becomes what's good and good results follow it.
Is mercy killing how that?
What is the exact definition of a mercy killing? They're saying like
a human that's suffering? No, no, we can't do that. Take them out of
their misery.
You put them in pain medication.
Since it is discussed a lot on Reddit, can someone ask potential
spouse about her past sins? No, you cannot do that.
And you Yes, you may hide it. No one says, Hey, you can ever
committed Zina before, it's not your right to ask that question.
And it's their right to say no. Right? Oh, they're lying to me.
Well, how do you know they're like, you shouldn't have asked the
question in the first place. Right?
Okay.
Ravi Malik says 300 is that in reference to something?
Oh, 300 Yes, correct.
Okay, is it permissible to do a mercy killing for an animal then
the answer is yes. And that happens all the time when they hit
a deer or something, and that deer will never heal from that. So you
can kill an animal for that reason.
But the previous question was saying what's the reference for
300 satellites? Like why is it 300
The all of that came to a point at some reason for they said that 300
When it comes to Vicodin, Allah is the least of what is considered
kufra a lot. It's the lowest number of what's considered a lot
we can probably look up where they got that number from.
If we praise or do Salawat more than Victrola, is it wrong? Is it
should, they call Rasul is the killer. Because the first thing in
all Salawat is Allah whom
right?
Allah Houma, so it is a DUA, so they can Rasul is the gorilla.
Man AHA rasool Allah, Allah, Allah says in the Quran, whoever obeys
the prophet has obey the law. All focus upon the messengers that
Allah is sending them is obedience to Allah and pleasing to Allah and
it's worship of Allah. Okay.
Is the first step remove a difficulty easy situation and do
to do 200 Every day?
Yes, doing tahajjud will ease all hardships
so the God says is okay, we answered that one.
Okay, are you able to achieve was the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam aware of the names of other prophets other than those
mentioned in the Quran? The prophets of Allah
It was Saddam became aware of all of this knowledge and of all of
the Gambia, as stated, if we take the general statement that he made
some Allah when he was Saddam, that Allah Tala placed he felt a
coolness on his back. And Allah placed all of the knowledge of the
heavens and the earth into my chest. That is a famous Hadith and
is the Hadith of the debating angels, the debate of the highest
heavens
and which Allah asked him and it's this was a dream. He asked him,
what do they debate about and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam
said that he did not know.
He asked him three times this question, and then he said, I felt
a coolness on my back, then all of the knowledge of the heavens and
the earth entered my heart. So therefore that knowledge and to
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam we can assume from it
includes the names of the angels and the prophets.
What about asking for aid of the beloved and the O liat directly
such as is to Gotha
seeking someone's help believing that they are a mere sub a cause?
And not the source is permitted. Okay. If you believe that that's a
cause of aid, and we have that famous Hadith of the Prophet
salallahu Salam
commanding us if you are lost in the desert, this is this hadith
makes sense. You think when you're lost in the desert? What is the
scariest part of the desert? That you're all alone? Is it the same
when you're lost in the desert? By yourself? Or with 10 other guys
with 10 other guys you still worried? But you got nine other
eyeballs and nine or 18 other eyeballs? 18 other ears and nine
other brains? Right? Helping you? So you feel less scared? Right?
Because if I don't see I might not see an oasis, but my friend may
see it. Right?
If an animal comes to attack us I only got two hands but if I got
nine friends that's 18 More hands. So you feel you're worried but
it's less worried. Why? Because you feel like you have company?
Well the province I sent him was telling the Arabs out there in the
desert and anybody who feels alone you're not alone. You are not
alone. You have melodica they're helping you and that's why the
prophets of Allah what He was sense of when you are in that
feeling we could do the chaos of being alone but he specifically
mentioned the story being in the desert Okay.
Said shout out yeah bird Allah. He Nguni Oh slaves of Allah helped
me.
Okay. Yeah, bad Allah uni. So he's calling to mind to calm your mind
your human mind down who needs to feel that you have help? Okay, and
help of angels is the help of Allah. If Allah sent you angels
that is by Allah's Will angels don't ever disobey Allah, they're
only answering to Allah subhana wa Tada. They're only there because
Allah sent them. You, when you ask divine help, you're not going to
get the divine in the form of a person in front of you to help
you.
You're going to get a creation. So the Prophet Den is pointing us to
do that.
Okay, so is that just to Gotha? Is there like, shift only something
that's accompanied with a wrong belief? Or is there like just
shift of action? So like, for example, like, obviously, we would
say like drinking water is obviously not Schick, if you
believe it's going to nourish you in and of itself, then that shift,
right? That's a false belief. Yeah, that's a false belief. So
it's like, is there an action that if you just do this action without
belief, yes, and of itself, yeah, worshipful acts of pagans and
idols, so like, if someone prostrates let's say like to
prostrate to across prostrate to a Buddha, like there was something
like, we're not gonna say they're crazy, but like they're completed
like establishing a loved one in first there was like, some reason
that just did it negated. It will still be, shall I say, La la la
la, and I'm gonna bow down in my head and act Okay. In it worship
to boot. Okay, you just negate it. Yes, this is clear water and you
poured poison. So it's now all poisons. So it specifically for
idols are like, yeah, that we know that use FaceTime, his you know,
the brothers prostrating that was like, wasn't that for that? Well,
that was also a dream. Well, then it did happen. Yes. But it was
that in their city, I was a frustration of respect, which was
my super for us, man. So
I'm going to get the full list. There is a list of clear actions
by themselves, no interpretation needed.
So now, some of the Allamah then made DS
and said, it's not just angels that can help you. It is the souls
of past profits and odia that can help you and there is no and that
PS
it has issues
being there
We know angels
inhabit this world and help us.
And they're alive and not dead. Whereas we don't know for sure.
Where are the souls of odia. Okay, and if they can come back to this
earth and help us, but they say that we had experience,
we had physical experience of their help. And that that's how
they know. So if if you knew that, then maybe it's fine for you, but
it wouldn't be, it wouldn't transmit, because that's what we
call tentative.
They experienced it.
And they got their help. So that they believe now that the souls of
the past prophets and Ambia and Olia Can, can physically help you
in this world, just like Monica just like other living humans. And
that was their basis of it.
If you're in university, what is the best way to revise a daily
routine to memorize and retain information? First of all, I would
read the sections multiple times. So you read the chapter multiple
times. Secondly, I would write my own set of notes.
Okay,
I write like a graph, or write the notes down in a way that is makes
sense to me.
And then,
if you could possibly listen to a video, about the same topic
online, like Hans academy or whatever, whatever, Khan Academy,
that's another avenue, that if you have a study group, that's another
avenue. So you want to do the same thing on different multiple
avenues. And anytime that I did well, in school, I never actually
studied in groups, because I felt that to be a bit of distraction.
But I did study with one person, like too many people as a
distraction, but one person, like I did that. But the key was to
study
is revision, literally just rereading the chapter and
rewriting the notes, then taking those notes, putting them on the
side, redo the notes, see if you could do it better, until you've
done it so many times that you've, anytime I did that I just like
breeze through the courses. And anytime I got lazy, right and
didn't do that, then in a breeze through the courses, so long term,
like very long term, like it's something you want to know for
years and years, then you go back to it after four or five months,
you're forgetting about it, you go back to and redo the same
practice. That's how you do it. That's how you can know a book
literally inside out is because time passes, and that whatever you
knew has settled now in your mind, right? And maybe now you only
retain 10% of it, go back to it, and redo the same thing as if it's
the first time
discovery and learning are not the same thing. The first time you
read something, it's merely a discovery.
But it's the repetition that really translates into learning.
Okay,
if I do a nine to five job, I can't go to Joomla What can I do?
If Joomla is near to you,
you must go to Joomla.
If Joomla is far away, like in another town, then you're not
obligated to go to gym.
And sudo aka Allah says towards the beginning that only a few of
the later generations will be close to him. But then says a
large number a multitude will be
suited to the walk I mentioned that those who are very near to
Allah, tada are many in the early times and few in the end of days.
That's what it means.
Very near to Allah Makara. There is in that Surah those who are
astray those who are on who are good and those who are very near
to Allah.
What happens when people say well, Allah, is it an oath to know if
it's just common regular speech? It's not an oath.
Even if the question says, What if you're asking someone, Hey, did
you ever do Zina in your life? And you said, Well, I say, well, Allah
had that you didn't use it in your life? Do you still say, Well, why?
Don't ask this question.
First of all, if she says, No, how are you going to prove it? That
she's saying the truth or lying? Right?
So don't even go there.
If I know that a potential spouse committed a crime, but they don't
know, I know. Can I interrogate them on it? You're asking for
trouble and do this don't make people lie. Because people do have
the right to protect the reputation.
Okay, and why why would you
want people to admit committing sins? They get comfortable with
it. They get cut. Okay, I did it. All right. Yeah, I did it. Yeah, I
did this. By the way I did 10 other things too, they get
comfortable with committing sins, then they take that as their
identity now. So don't push people like this
anonymous says, Why is it wrong to ask about a person's past in a
relationship? Because no one has to so because you're making people
speak about sins they committed.
What you can ask is for a health report.
Right? You are allowed to ask for that if you suspect this person
may have an STD. Right? Health Report. Why? Because in a health
report, you could catch the STD. So you actually have an interest
there. Right? Or do you have any children that I you have a right
to ask that? Do you have debts that would stop us from renting an
apartment or buying a house? Right or saving up money? So where it
impacts you, you have a right to ask, but where it's just somebody
else's mistakes, we don't have a right to ask them anymore. Okay.
Don't ask that. What is that question saying they're from IBM.
There's a lamp blocking the screen, I can see the LEDs on my
cell cell Sammy LM.
On Instagram.
You have recommendations for finding good teacher for touch, we
help people connect with Allah subhanaw taala, we will have those
classes on ArcView Arabic coming up very soon. We're looking at
next week launching a new website for arc v dot O R G, that's where
you want to learn. Okay, are a few Academy Arabic Islamic sciences.
And I'm focused on all this. And that's why I left social media.
Like there's no way I can go into inboxes anymore. And answer all
the comments that people put on Twitter and Facebook, I realized
like, either build out ArcView and make it great, something's gotta
go.
And that's why I be an off that stuff. It's not that I always, it
was all bad. It was a lot of it was good. I liked a lot of it. But
it's it was a serious time vacuum, a church time drain. And if you
want to build something out, that's really great. It takes time
takes effort. And I had to give the time to Ark feature to totally
revamp and it's going to be worth that you'll see
how does the person not attach yourself to the means while
pursuing it?
By one of the best ways that you separate in your mind, although my
body has to seek out money, I got to know in my mind that money is
just a means not an end. One of the best ways to do it is to say
it,
to say it, to say this is merely a sub, say it out loud to yourself,
right? This is merely a sub.
Talk like that out loud to yourself. It's a great way to
actually remind yourself
and people who make a lot of money, you can be in control of
the money if you slaughter it regularly. And that is by giving
it out and good sources, good causes good. Even paying bills
that are necessary. That's a good cause. Right? If you were to pay
someone else's bill, isn't it a good cause we'll pay my own as the
same thing. I'm also a creation of Allah who needs help, right? So
you should never make a payment or a charity or let alone charity
with with a foul heart.
Because that just reflects attachment.
And I saw this amazing wisdom the other day, he who cannot give
charity in poverty will not give it in wealth.
I thought that seems counterintuitive. Because in
poverty, if I give out $100 Out of 1000.
I have 1000 in the bank, I give $100 That's 10%. Whereas if I have
$100,000 in the bank, in my bank account, and I give $100. That's
1%. Right?
No less than 1%.
But it's a very small percentage, right? So it seems
counterintuitive, but the perspective is not about the
percentage. The perspective is about the value, right? And it's
that the more wealth that a person has, the more they tend to love
their wealth, and they serve it and they spend time on it.
In contrast, when you don't have a lot of wealth, it's there's
nothing to be attached to. Right there's nothing to be attached to.
Let's say for
example, I got a few of these Turkish delights. It's nothing to
be attached to. But if someone came in and bought a whole feast
of, of food, now hold on a second, we got to pay attention to that.
No, you have to see how are we going to treat this properly? How
are we going to divide it up. So it's not about the percentage of
the wealth that you're losing, it's about the level of
attachment. And the rich are more attached to their money than the
poor to their money. Right. And so that's why if you can't give it
when your attachment is low, you can't give it when your attachment
is high. And that's why the way to control wealth and the wealth we
will have it like a slave, which it should be, you are there the
money is a slave to you, you're not a slave to the money is to
slaughter it, and slaughtering it is by making payments with a smile
on your face, giving charity, things like that sharing all that
stuff.
Were verses in the Quran sent down in time.
They have oh the verses of the Quran of course have always
existed with Allah without language without beginning without
and that is what we call al Qalamoun. FC Allah speech with
himself, then they were revealed in the Arabic tongue,
gut and written in a low in in
written in a low head muffles.
Then they were revealed to the lowest heavens in what's called
beta is according to have numbers.
And then they were revealed to the Prophet sallallahu, sudden, over
23 years.
I need to revise and retain at least the first and second year
university content by next year to make my final year easy. How do I
tackle this,
there's actually a very easy technique. And that is a technique
of accumulation of time.
If you spend
a small amount of time such as 15 minutes,
phase one is building the habit.
And that phase, you lower the amount of time that you have to
work out see, you know, this talk right here is what people told me
that you should start a life coaching company. Right? How you
built the phase one is building the habit. Phase two
is advancing the habit. So let's say you want to kids to study, to
watch Math, study math every day.
So the key here is the word every day
is not knowing a lot of math or sitting for a long time. The key
is that to get into the daily routine.
That's other key word routine here. Sit down and watch 15
minutes of the video. Watch Khan Academy for 15 minutes. Right
exactly in a notebook. Where did you leave off? Okay, so and leave
the browser open so that every day and set a timer, the moment the
timer goes off, you set it off, I don't care if he's in the middle
of a sentence. You shut it off, right? So that you get to realize
when you sit down, this is not the end of the world. My whole day is
not been lost. It's only 15 minutes. 15 minutes, I don't have
to look at my phone, I don't have to talk to my brother. I've talked
to my sister 15 minutes of pure focus just on the video. The
moment my timer goes off, I got one tab on the video one tab on
the timer.
Okay, the moment the timer goes off, I set it off.
You feel maybe you learned point 1% of something, right? No
problem. The key here is to develop in the routine. Every
single day, I don't care what happens. Nobody doesn't have 15
minutes, good 15 minutes. If you do that, that by itself, I tell
you that by itself. If you do that over the span of a year, you will
achieve so much you don't realize then the day that comes at you
need to cram for the exam. Now the exams coming in a month. Now I'm
putting out like 5678 hours a day on it. That's fine now but because
at least I have a foundation.
That 15 minutes a day is the phase one of the routine development of
a routine. And we call this the old rod and this system was taken
when
many young reads way back in the day, never heard of to solve for
anything, went to the shoe and said how can what can we do? How
do we start? And we imagine something like the Hello
48 hour retreat, three day retreat, 15 days, 40 days, none of
that. Shift simply said I want you to recite the woods in the morning
in the woods at night.
And some people were like, Oh, that's not enough a lot more.
And someone like myself was like okay, that's doable, right? That
is doable.
And I didn't have the ability to do what some of those other guys
did. So I took that right so that's this is great. This is it.
Something where I know I'm on the right track. If I just do this
something
objective and practical. That's what it is. It's objective and
it's practical. And every single day did the wood in the morning
every single day didn't wind at night, never, ever missed it,
right? Ever, no matter what happens.
I didn't really feel that immediately that anything changed.
But over time, you began to feel stronger in the wisdom.
And without realizing it, you truly did transform after a year.
Right? But you didn't even realize it.
And, and it's good not to realize it. Because if you realize that
you may become self conscious, right, and you mess up, but to not
realize that he's even better. And that's why the slow and steady
route is really the best route. And it's about establishing that
routine. And you you can apply this for studying, you can apply
this for too. So if you can apply this for push ups, you can learn
the hardest book in the world. Right? If you apply this
methodology, and it's no different than
the ancient times and the old days, how did they break up a
mountain if there wasn't the path? Right? It may take them a year.
But everyone comes with a hammer and a chisel. Good. A chisel is
basically a sharp end with a flat top, the guy puts it here and
bang, bang, bang, bang, everyone's banging away at you could be a big
a small mountain. But you get enough guys doing it every single
day for a year, and that mountain will be gone. And after the first
day, you'll feel like you've achieved nothing, a little piece
of come off of a mount, what's the big deal? Nothing, right? Fast
forward now though, for after a year, all of a sudden, that
thing's gone.
And I once one time had there were 200 videos.
Each video is 20 minutes of a work of FIP.
And I said to myself, I'm going to watch these 200 videos, and I must
have watched five on the first day. Like eight on the second day.
I was just breezing through it. Just like the rabbit and the hare.
But in Islam and in life, things happen. Like Ramadan happens.
Doesn't that disrupt everything? Right?
Oh, I'm gonna trip a sickness, right? A vacation, an illness,
something like that. disrupted it.
And then I said, I'm not gonna go back to it. Because when I go
back, I go for five hours. Like when do I have four or five hours?
did two years passed? Right? Two years passed. If I had done half a
video, just half a video 10 minutes a day, I would have
finished in one year in two years, less than two years. Right? So
that's the key and you feel like what a waste is could have been
done. So it's not the heavy lifting. It's the small lifting
regularly.
That gets the job done. And that's the technique. Stickney get the
shoe
Z wants to bring up a point that we said about STDs when you ask
about STDs. If it's curable, the person may got cured from it then
yeah, they don't have to mention it.
Can we do is to author the angel of death? No, the prophets I
seldom said yeah, a bad Allah inone. That's it. He didn't say
the Angel of Death.
Okay, so if you did not are not cured from the STD and you could
transmit that STD, then you have to say it. Remember, if it affects
your partner, it has to be disclosed. Okay. You got to
disclose otherwise, it's trickery. You're tricking us here.
particularly related to the sexual function.
I mean, what do you think of someone has got COVID back when
COVID was a scary thing today, everyone gets COVID. Nothing
happens, right? But COVID at one point was a scary thing. People
were worried about getting COVID. And you hang out with somebody you
talk the way we're talking here very close, physically in
proximity, like across the table,
after the whole gathering and you hugged and you shared food, and
you pass the straw, and you pass the cup and everything is oh, by
the way, guess what? I have COVID you will believe this if COVID Did
you not just betray your friend? It's like whoa, what? You don't
say anything. So it's a betrayal.
It doesn't it won't invalidate the marriage unless it is purely an
error in the in the malfunction of the sexual organ that will
invalidate the marriage. That means you marry a person and then
the man or the woman discloses a malady that would disallow normal
sexual relations that invalidates the marriage. The other things
don't invalidate the marriage but they're sinful and that you
tricked somebody. Right and it may have
have repercussions in real life that the person is upset at you
go
Can we bow down in front of a karate? Instructor No. Sinful on
it say that should get sinful yeah because the intent there is that
that's the way the Japanese give honor and respect by the way next
week Friday.
You saw that email
is Japanese dad MBSE. I heard it was
Friday
we have five Japanese converts. Yuki, Yuki, Yuki Yuka and UG.
Those are their names, right? And they're going to come and they
have a presentation that they're preparing about being Japanese and
being Muslim. It says we are an international ummah. And we should
always be international and
and this almost for the there's no umbilicus literally for every part
of the world. The only thing that they said is they're not coming
for sushi. They're not bringing sushi. They're not going to come
cook sushi for us, or prepare sushi, sushi cooked or prepared.
They said we're not doing sushi. I said, What about hibachi? At
least? They said no, that's an American innovation in Japan,
there's no such thing as abaci.
Good. So they will they'll bring some Japanese snacks. I mean,
forget the food. That's the silly part. But we want to hear about,
like life in as a Japanese Muslim. Right? It's something that
I kept noticing that those numbers are sort of increasing. And that's
a good thing.
But anyway, I was saying that when it comes to karate,
it's not necessarily the intent is not worship in the first place.
So it will be sinful, we won't say it should it's sinful to bow to
somebody like that.
Is there any spiritual dimension to common phobias, like the fear
of rats and spiders, I would say it is spiritual in the past from
the aspect of the fitrah that were created with we are all created
with a natural instinct. And the natural instinct makes us fear
things that we we all sort of tend to agree that we fear things that
tend to be ugly in nature, dirty in nature, slimy in nature.
Okay, and things that there's also someone else brought brought up
the psychology, things that could crawl into the holes of the body,
we have a fear of God.
Because when these little things are crawling around, one of the
real fears is that we have holes in our body. We don't want
anything little around us that thing's gonna crawl into our body.
And also, I think I wouldn't say that just that's just the
instincts not necessarily a spirituality there, but it's the
instinct of, of people in general. Last question, Khalil Choudry,
says da of Mo Farah.
La ilaha. illa Anta Subhanak in the continental Ballymena is one
of the best. Okay.
Dua from Accra.
I found discussions between my husband and another woman
on his phone.
This was before we were together. May I ask him about this?
So you're already together? Right? You're already married and you're
ready together and you found a little a thread? Yeah, there's
nothing wrong to ask him. Hey, is this woman gone from our life now?
So there shouldn't be anything wrong with that question.
Good, what is a wizards? But what was the wizard? What the wizard I
didn't define what a word and then specify which would the wizard as
a definition is a short series of prayers from the Prophet salallahu
Salam that a scholar collects
you do that for the morning for the protection of the day and for
the in the you do that in the afternoon for the protection of
the evening. And where did you Latif in the morning erotica,
Shahir at night and their ads if you decided that org slash would
go.
Ladies and gentlemen, we got a very busy afternoon. We got the
kids retreat and the youth retreat in the masjid that we got to go to
and they're gonna go swimming soon. And then we got the last
class for the youth.
All right.
Today, so we got a busy day. And unfortunately, you got a lot of
nice questions here. Will the Japanese Muslim be livestream? No,
it won't be live streamed unfortunately, the acoustics in
our message. It's a high ceiling with a lot of metal at the top.
The audio is always bouncing around the acoustics is never
good. And the Wi Fi is not good either.
because there's like 100 other people on the Wi Fi?
Does Allah only allow an opening to occur for you to become a
successful and exams, get married, etc, when you are obedient to him?
No, these things can still exist when you're disobedient because
they are of the dunya.
And the dunya, Allah gives to the believer in the non believer,
however, if you are a believer that Allah may deprive you of it
as a sign that you should not disobey him, or he may give it to
you as a motivation for us to turn our page into a good page, right?
And sometimes it happens that a sinful Muslim gets his prayer
answered, and he wonders why am I getting my parents who later on in
life he always remembers that Allah answered me when I had a
need. So now I'm going to I'm going to respect myself and be
obedient to my Creator. Right not be one of those who was ungrateful
Robbie ematic when is it happening this meeting with the Japanese
Muslims is
and we will also have a video presentation from Professor
Yamamoto
but this will be happening at the New Brunswick Islamic center live
and in person it will not be streamed okay, you know what?
Maybe we'll talk to you about streaming it through mbyc But
we'll see what happens because the audio I'm telling you is always an
issue Okay
ladies and gentlemen
oh some people saying their questions were not answered let's
go back and see
what is the meaning of income a lot of money? Well, I don't and I
will Aberdeen it's the saying of profit. I said no money um, how
they said,
if it were possible that Allah had a son, if Allah had a son, I would
have been the first one to worship it. That's what he's saying. And
he's saying it as an absurdity.
Will the people in their graves in the buttons up here that trumpet
when it is blown for the PME
they will not hear the first trumpet but they will hear the
second trumpet. Their trumpet is blown three times. One to end life

Hello, Google
