All right now let's get the Insta Bismillah R Rahman Rahim hamdu
lillah wa Salatu was Salam ala Rasulillah. While he was certainly
here, Woman Well, welcome everybody to Monday's nothing but
facts live stream. We're here today and you know what Mondays is
it's open QA after we do
the Syrah of the Quran, which we're talking here about. We
always talk about the circumstances of revelation and
explanations from certain sources and then we do our open QA day.
That's today. And I have something else to talk about today. Many
people have asked about to Westwood and instead of Arthur and
I'm going to give you such a clear and lucid explanation by the
permission of Allah, you're just going to be like well, and then on
Tuesday, we're going to do it again. I'm going to do it again on
Tuesday with
with the Hadith on the screen right on YouTube and everything
else so that everyone could see it. Okay, so we're gonna do it two
days in a row because something that you do it twice is going to
be good but let's let's begin with our Salah on the messenger peace
be upon him Allah study was sent him out of Satan and Muhammad in
the bill Upolu be whatever you have Fiat in Abuja, and he was
when we were in Saudi Arabia while he was Samuel sell him alongside
Western medicine ma'am they knew because when medical care which
might only be if equally while he was he and or today's students
kurush Annabelle sudut polish it is connected to failure, Abu Raba
del Bates, Allah the Obama home in Juba, Muhammad Cove, okay, so the
elf Eucharist is all about the favors that ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada
had on Quraysh. Okay, and one of the motivations and by which we
worship Allah, or through which we worship Allah and what moves us
is gratitude for all the things that Allah has given us. Now the
capitalists, he doesn't want to have a lot of gratitude he just
wants to take and take and take. Now Allah appeals to the greedy by
saying what to insure Khartoum, as you don't know. So Allah knows
that people who are who are takers in this world who are sharks who
are going to get stuff they want to take and Allah to Allah has
made them worship Him by taking from his his, all you have to do
is recognize where this is coming from. Obey my law regarding this,
and then thirdly, thanked me regarding this by thanking him,
okay, he we're gonna get an increase, so people don't want to
be grateful they want to take and gratitude seems like a waste of
time. But Allah to adda me motivates the capitalist by
telling him even by gratitude you get more if you thank me you get
more by capitalist I just meet someone who loves the bounty of
Allah. Some people are like that other people they're just they're
just ascetic. Allah has put them in a state of zoos now saying I
used to be Madame was curious one day about why is it some people
are go getters in the world?
They why are they hungry? And other people? They're just they're
happy as is right there have no problem. They're just ascetics. So
ALLAH SubhanA wa, tada spoke to him. And he said, Oh, I used to
look at the, at the farmer. Farmer was working work and middle of the
heat. And slowly he stopped.
And he put his shovel down. And he went sat in the shade.
And then suddenly, he got up again and started working again.
So say nice to said,
Oh, farmer, what happened? Why did you just stop? And then why'd you
get up again? He said, I was working because I'm trying to
build up a farm here. I'm trying to build up a property, and I'm
going to have an income from these crops. And then I'm gonna buy cows
and then I'm gonna buy a home, blah, blah, blah, and I'm gonna
build and I'm gonna do this. He said, Then what happened? He said,
Then I thought about, well, what's gonna happen next, I'm gonna get
old. My kids will take it. Maybe they want to farm maybe they
don't. I'm gonna die. And I'm gonna go to Allah subhanaw taala
and I started thinking of the ACA and death.
So I just put my shovel down. And I started thinking, Well, I'm
gonna die. I have to prepare for my death. I have to
live for the ACA more than this world.
And then I thought to myself, but building up this world is also a
good deed. Right? Because people could benefit. So I had hope
again. Alright, so then Allah said, then the then say nice, he
turned to Allah subhana wa Tada. And Allah said, I put the hope in
his heart. Then I removed it from his heart. And I put the
contemplation of the afterlife, and then I removed that and I put
and then I kept that then I put the hope with that. Hope
With the contemplation we all go does
Pope with the contemplation of afterlife combined so that his
work would be a good deed for him? So that's how it works and Allah
to Allah has told the elf you Quraysh
the elf Eucharist means to bring close close I'll OLFA is to be
near. I don't know if you guys have this all over the country but
there's LWF car dealer like these are one of the biggest car dealer
he's Lebanese met LWF which means the easy to deal with easygoing
person right to deal with the province has set himself the
Muslim is Elif, aloof, which means that he should be easy to deal
with. And is it when you deal with him and he's easy when he deals
with you. That's an attribute of a believer. That's how it should be.
Okay. So the ILA if you're courageous to bring Christ close,
remember, Allah is not the enemy of Quran as default as many people
think. No, the default is that he loves his a bet.
It's when they turn on him. They only bring that negativity back on
themselves. So he says for the good relations with Quran
istilah with Allah is have a good relation with Allah and the elf
Icarus for the drawing near of Quran to us. Valuable. Amara home
and Yabu edge the elf for him. Okay, so worship Him so that you
could draw near to Him, and that he could make your life easier.
And he's made easy for them. What is a sign that Allah was good to
them? He gave them an editor schita it was safe. The journeys
of the heavens of the of the winter in the summer. So well,
what's the big deal with that journey? Well, the big deal with
that journey is having a journey back in the old days was not easy.
Number one, someone could read you. Number two, when you stop.
You got to pay these tribes something, you got to be generous
to these tribes, right? When you stop and take a pitstop, you got
to be generous to the tribes. But after the birds came, they had on
Airbnb, and destroyed Abraha the reputation of kurage was so high
that nobody would dare mess with Kodesh. And they were more than
willing to be generous to them. So all of a sudden, this trip north
became easy.
Less less expensive, less dangerous, the trip south to
Yemen, easy and less expensive, good. All of a sudden, your costs
are down. Your profits are up. So their margins went up. They got
rich, they did well. Okay.
Now I'm Allah, Ali, the blessings of Allah upon them learn so I saw
cannot be counted. All right. So that's a schita it was safe was it
they always did, and it just they were always doing this. But after
abre and the elephants came, and the birds came and destroyed all
that they graze became famous for being added Allah, the people of
Allah, and nobody wants to mess with them. And on top of that
everyone wanted to marry from them. Everyone wanted to be part
of that. That's why even our best says the verse that Allah subhanaw
which I sent you Rasul and men and physical approach a messenger from
your own selves had been our best says, every single tribe of the
Arabs has married into Polish, every single tribe and that
accelerated after and I'm talking about our book available feed when
the birds came and destroyed all this and they people that said,
this is a miracle from Allah, these are God's people. So now
everyone wants to marry into them. Okay, so their youth when everyone
wants to marry to your tribe, you might not be the best guy. But
your tribe has got people interested in you. Right? Just for
that reason. So in the same way, you could be an American you go to
Eastern Europe with an American accent, you're gonna get married,
right? Go down to certain countries like Morocco, right?
With an American accent or Indonesia. They love Americans
what can you do for now? Right? They love Americans. You can get
married with ease, go with any other accent, it's not going to be
the case because people like to be associated with the with the
powerful and the favorite. So it was life was easy for their youth
easily getting married. Alright. So continues here
that he says electrical he loved him relative shooter he was safe.
So all that Allah's asking for is a bed in return and this is what
we call a job would been there for a year worship Allah subhana which
if you have no motivation yourself benefit
to benefit myself. It is COCOM for summer so it's a very yet got
warmer to I don't your it is, is in the heavens. Okay.
What does that mean? It means the rain, obviously the the means of
series the rain, but it's also
Oh that different a bet that right what's going on what's so funny?
You got to tell me put your mic on and tell us what's what exactly
the right is cracking up I've can't focus on that stuff. So he's
got to tell us what is happening here.
Yeah, under that people just come on Hi Hamza. Aisha there hey
someone comes on Russia do Kabir yeah it sounds like a random
question as Dr. Shetty ever participated in the Hydra and then
Maliki click comes on he says
to do you mean to categorize him? Oh, and then they come back and
says no just wondering I like to have the and then our boy yes
incomes on he says I love the header.
So there's a side discussion, complete side discussion on the
100 We're not gonna talk we're gonna talk about the other side
but we're going to talk about the wonders the beauty of to us that
the prophet has taught and the actual meaning and understanding
of history about the which has confused so many people are
confused but this hadith of the prophets I send them it makes us
so clear, it's pure to aid with to us Sudan is devata and you're
gonna understand it like the back of your hand. Okay? Okay, so what
Allah asked them in return fully, I would rather Bates fit worship
this Lord, He fed you from hunger, and he secured you from fear. And
that's pretty much all that human beings need to be to know. Now I
can begin to live right. And that's the main thing but you need
food and security, whoever provides the food and provides the
security. That's that that is basically your the biggest
blessing that you can have. Right? It's one of the jobs of men in our
OMA ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada says at regional comunidad and he said be
my Fidel, Allah will be about Amara bot will be an thuc woman
and well
sometimes when I pronounces I don't do the surgery. But I should
mean and welcome. Okay.
Men, they're the maintainers a worm always standing, standing
doing what? Standing earning, spending his money and protecting
if there's a thief in the house, in the middle of the night. All
right. So if you're married, if there's a thief in the house in
the middle of the night, and that guy comes and he you hear his, his
his knife or whatever, who's going out you or your wife, right? It's
gonna be good.
They're putting out equal rights. Alright, you go for the first half
hour if you're still alive. Come back. I'll come for the next half
hour tried to fight this dude. Right? Not in our culture. Imagine
your daughter calls you but Hey, Dad. We're actually being robbed
right now. But husband is telling me to go and defend. I said,
Forget this husband get a quarter. I'll pay for it. Right, come back.
There's not a man. Not in our religion. Right. Subhan Allah. So
security, it's your job. To secure the house. It's the job of a
husband. But it's also look at security in the country is not
something anyone can predict. It's really from ALLAH SubhanA wa, like
who would have predicted Syria would have been a mess like this?
A couple of years ago. Who would have predicted Ukraine? security
of nations is something from Allah subhanaw taala. There's
insecurities. That's financial. Right? He fed them from hunger.
Ali Abdullah, the beta lead the Obama whom endure what am animal
health? How many Americans went hungry in 2020 because of COVID
Dry Cleaners, right? That went out of business. Coffee shops in New
York and commuter areas. Chicago, New York. These are massive. They
have trends, right? These these trams or trains or whatever,
Rails, commuter rails.
All the little coffee shops, all the little restaurants
that were supporting that were based on the 1000s of people that
commute the biggest restaurant in the world. It's not an I don't
call it a restaurant, but you know what that was, you know, the the
most frequented restaurant in the entire world. You know what it is?
go to McDonald's. It's a McDonald's were in Japan, not
Japan. It's in Delaware and Connecticut. I think it's Delrin,
Connecticut. Something like that. It's an on the turnpike and route
95. Right, because that's the biggest artery of commuting is
northbound. Right to Connecticut, that McDonald's on the rest up of
the New Jersey of the i 95. Well, it's i 95. Interstate 95. I
remember talking to a restaurant tour, restaurant tour. They're
into, like they they're experts in fast food. They all know the
business right? He says that that they use every day. 20 boxes of
toilet paper
20 bucks a box like this. How many rolls are in the box, right?
Second airport in that McDonald's? It's in the rest of that
McDonald's? They is the most frequented restaurant in the world
because of what commuters? I wouldn't call it a restaurant,
right? I mean, it is technically a restaurant, but mostly when the
restaurant you think of
doubt and eat, but this place is frequented by commuters. So think
of the vendors who supply to those restaurants right? When COVID hit,
so how many people's hunger increased during COVID A lot of
people just like, and when you when you can't earn, there's a lot
of other psychological problems. It's not just your stomach that's
bothering you now, right? You might have your wife and kids
looking around at you.
Right? How does that make a guy feel? So there's a lot of stuff
that goes on at the national level that you cannot control. Okay, the
national level then you just can't control who's hungry and who's
safe okay
who's here so Hey, how was the interview
but you look good and that white shirt man this is resident so Hey,
y'all know traveling
doesn't take
our guys to have had an interview so make droppin
Okay, so that that is the basic your basic summary of students
kudos, which is always connected to students and field, because
students will feel tells us which we're going to cover it next week.
So that's in feed tells us that how Allah subhanaw was out as
miracle. There was a miracle came for push. That is also to show the
people that when a messenger comes from here, don't be surprised.
You've seen miracles come at the hands of Abdulmutallab.
zamzam was dug by him.
The Birds of a Buddha has elephants came when Abdullah
thought it was your leader. Okay, optimal thought of himself was
considered the greatest chief of courage of all time. Okay. He was
considered that when you look at the books that talk about optimal
setup, and that's why the Prophet SAW I sent it to him, when he was
fighting the ZURB. The Arabs, what was he saying? Okay, and unabIe
you look at him, and I have not demoted him. I'm a prophet.
There's no lie about this. The son of optimal thought. In other
words, you knew this, you knew optimal thought of someone great
is going to come from his lineage. And it was said, optimal thought
of us to say, this son of mine has a great affair. And people would
say greatness is going to come from that lineage. So that's why
he said that because you all Arabs knew this. I'm the son of D'Amato.
It's also proof that I've never thought it was a Hanif because the
Prophet would not have fucker pride through the attribution to a
pagan. So he's a Hanif hamdulillahi rabbil alameen and
Eve's are not made to be in a binner right we know this know
Firstly, if no messenger comes to people they're not punished.
That's the sad immaturity dependent full stop. As for this,
the solitary chain Hadith that says that Allah test them on the
Day of Judgment, right? It's a solitary chain Hadith. It is an
opinion in the MIT School of albida as an hajat, Alaska and he
says, but it's not the dominant pinion why because Quran is much
better and cut a warmer couldn't be and I had done about that I
Sula, we don't punish until We send a messenger so firstly, he
never received a messenger. Secondly, okay, on top of that he
was a Hanif.
Alright, now let me teach you something. I'm going to talk about
this very quickly and very simply, and I'm gonna repeat it again
tomorrow. Okay.
This is the famous famous Hadith that the prophets I send them
taught
regarding the blind men who asked for his eyesight back
and this comes with a sound chain of transmission
Okay, sound changes transmission Whoa ahaadeeth on so here are our
her that hadith Chava and Abby Jaffa waste will omit it music
with HIPAA to follow the automatic normal and sure other color Abu
Abdullah and Mark Dizzy while Hadith to Sahil Han. Okay. Now the
Hadith the wording of this hadith is that
okay, redo the whole thing. Okay, Iceman if no knife Chicka Alayhi
Basara who was madam No.
No man was no no. And I mean, he was my number and Nara Julen can
you tell if you allow us madam Nafion the herget in Lahore, for
Aloka Osman Haneef for Shaka either he Radek as mediven Hadith
he complained to this man complaints automatic no Hanif
for Karla when was this this was in the era of automatic nothin off
madam no Haneef was watching a man go back and forth complaining his
problems to say North medmen offense Khalifa so we're talking
about over a decade past passing after the present Mr. Wallace is
so awesome no has just come. Go to the place of will do make will do.
Okay.
Go go to the mosque and play pray to rock us so McQuoid
Oh then say, Why is he saying this? Because he taught he learned
it from the messenger of allah sallallahu alayhi wa salam. Okay?
He says Allahumma inni as Alka Tauheed Oh Allah, I asked you care
is the suffix for you?
I asked you and you said okay, now listen to the next verb is very
important what at what Joe alayka I turned myself to you I'm turning
to you I'm coming to you
Illa elated to the store heat two times that so heat has been made
pure. I asked you and I turn to you. But when you turn to Allah
subhanaw taala you always turn with something
but forgive my sense Hutch. Oh Allah grant my business success
okay with what okay dua with what are you asking Allah a mess? Oh
Allah with this charity save my mother from any difficulty in the
great charity. Okay, so the word as a word Judah. I turn I face
you. I'm coming to you. It has to prepositions. To whom? And with
what? Okay, to whom? And with what? So I'm going to you Oh,
Allah azza wa jal who alayka the NABI Muhammad Sallallahu. And he
was sent by your Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa salam. So
let's talk about this. What does that mean? Not turned to you by
the prophet. Okay. When you turn to Allah, if you need something
for Allah, my kid is sick, charity fasting, you're going to do some
deed right?
Who is the source of all those deeds?
Isn't it the messengers lesson?
The you wouldn't know how to fast without the Prophet. You wouldn't
even know Allah's name without the Prophet. Okay. Yes, the Arabs had
they had the name Allah but the Arabs are not the pagan Arabs are
not a reliable source for us. Only when a prophet came said Yes, his
name is Allah, right? Then we can know. I mean, there are pagans in
India that told me Brahma and Shiva and and all that, do we take
it from them? Maybe it came from Ibrahim, who knows? Right?
We don't know. yet. Maybe in some Hindi Prophet taught them one of
Allah's names back in the day, but we don't know so we don't take it
from them. So likewise, the pagan hours yes, they had the name of
Allah, but we didn't know it's the name of Allah and so the Prophet
came and confirmed it for us. So Salah tahajjud you go to Allah,
you need help you pray tahajjud
Who taught you to hajj who taught you Salah who taught you will do
who taught you all of these things. So the source of it all is
the messenger SallAllahu it was and therefore the greatest way by
which to go to Allah that encompasses everything is by the
prophet. So let's ask another question what does he mean by the
prophets? I said it means by my Eman and him by my belief in him
overall by my attribution and we call this at Wella by my loyalty
to the Prophet, we are we are loyal to certain things and we
disavow certain things. Okay. The left calls it
solidarity and whatever canceling right? Solidarity our loyalty our
Willa our allegiance, okay? Is with Mohammed slicer. He's the one
who taught us all of these other a badet
so that's what it means. I turned to Allah by the messenger so I
said it means by my loyalty to him by everything. That's the to us
in the visa Lysa.
Then what
in the world Joe La kabhi Nabi Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa
salam Nebby Rama and then what he says yeah, Mohammed. Yeah, Hamid
is to refer what does it mean? Why would I say yeah, Muhammad,
Muhammad, you are in. You are informing. That you are turning to
Allah by him. Yeah, Muhammad in me at Elijah who? Beggar Illa the two
prepositions by you to Allah Saeed. Okay. So when we are saying
yeah, Mohammed, it is not the year of dua. It's the Year of informing
Yeah, Mohammed, I am turning
by you.
Meaning my loyalty to you my Eman and you to Allah.
Now let's ask another question that's common sensical. How are
you saying that to the Prophet when he's passed away, Rahim allah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
because said no Mohammed Salah Salem is not limited to his body.
He's far greater than his soul is greater than his body. Right? Yes,
his body is not walking on the earth. But the soul of the
messenger so I send him receives the Salawat of the people and
receive the deeds of the people. We
Know that prophets I seldom said to America, I see your deeds are
sewn on to me and your Salah and your Salaam is sent on to me and
every Salah You should have asked before this hadith you should ask
in this Allah why do we say A salaam wa ali get a yo Nibi Raja
Llobregat Peace be upon you O Messenger of Allah. So the Prophet
Mohammed so I started them as the prophet of this OMA, the leader of
this OMA, his status in his grave in the afterlife is not like any
other status. Allah is sending the people Salam upon him
and the people just have author with him and that yeah, Mohammed
is not the year of drought is the year of Akbar. bitterwasser GB
Okay, is informing that I'm turning to Allah through you. Now
we don't do that for everything else because it's not alive. You
don't say, Oh 200 I turned to Allah through you because the
hedger does not have ears right to head you does not have a soul
that's a life you don't say oh Ramadan I turned to Allah through
you. You don't need to do this right because it's not alive. The
messenger sighs Salam is alive and therefore it requires a different
depth. Who taught us that add up we don't make up a dip. Okay.
Following ship of the Prophet a Deb with the prophet is taught by
the sahaba. Here's your Sahaba telling you this. The Prophet
himself taught this drop to automatic Hanif who then taught it
later on in his life in the KDF of automatic and fn. Yeah, Mohammed
another one said Yeah, Mohammed Yeah, Ahmed. In me, that's a word
Jaya who bigger Illa Arabic. Okay, I turn through you With you by you
to Allah so heat. Okay.
And then there's different wording of Leah, Rebecca the aka the
Allahu Hagerty her the two for Allah to fulfill my wording, okay,
for I said word for Allah to fulfill my need. Okay. Your Kedah
Hagerty and then what then it closes with another to hate Allah
home. For chef Pharaoh who feet, Oh Allah,
make him an intercessor for me, the prophet has already
intercessor but who says intercessor for you? That Allah
has to accept that and this to eat is showing you that it is only by
Allah's permission, that he has made the messenger so I sent him
an attribution to him and allegiance to him and trust in Him
and belief in Him and intercession. Okay.
It's Allah who's made it an introduction. Allah Houma chef
Pharaoh who feed there's different wordings of this, Oh Allah, except
that this intercession through the prophets I send them is acceptable
to you. So begins with so hate and it ends with so hate. And then in
the middle is what are we offering to Allah subhanaw taala it is our
attribution to the prophesy sentiment or Amen in him. And the
assertive author here Yeah, Mohammed is about informing the
messenger so I send them I'm taking you as my means.
In front of Allah subhana wa my deeds may not be acceptable
however, because I love you I attribute myself to you I follow
you.
Then perhaps Allah Tada will draw will accept me
in the same way my my deeds are no good I'm fucky at it Allah I
myself I'm nothing but maybe sadaqa to this poor person will
bring the Mercy of Allah maybe teaching a child Quran will bring
a person to Allah. All of these are deeds and the province I sent
him is the source of all deeds. Good. This is the DUA and the
famous Hadith and the famous
that is has in a dua what so heat what to us soon well, it's devata
all of it is in one
it had it so now listen, what happened? Okay, listen to what
happened
he's the man did it mechanic like a hydrogen alpha. In fact, you
know, in metal didn't I thought a diamond and develop element when
everybody does aka low cloud on Mac and little v hydrati. What
else Fe two, Eli had column two for call off midwife. He says
Wallahi then next day, next day, the man comes back to automatic
and honey. He said Well lovely. Thank you. He did it. It did
result he says thank you so much. Automotive now phone gave me
everything and before I met you, he didn't he wasn't paying
attention to me. He was too busy. Get but today he fulfilled all my
needs. Okay. So thank you for talking to him. Say Northmet says
walleye I did not speak to him one word. Okay. I did not speak to him
one word, okay. Rather show hit to Rasulullah sallallahu when he was
rather I had seen the messenger so I sent him I was Masabi. In other
words, I saw the prophesies. A blind man came to him
that they will read for Shekar la he
He complained to him the hub of authority that his blind prophesy
some said, Could you be patient with this? He said almost of
Allah, I cannot. I have so many needs. Can't be patient with this.
For Karla Lotus rasa Salam than the province I said I'm told him
exactly what I told you.
Exactly what I told you.
And that for Wallahi Murta for rakhna Well, I thought I've been
in Hadid had their doctor Annina Roger canula Mia couldn't be here.
He said Wallahi the gathering in the masjid was not over it that
man had prayed, uttered those words and came back to us fully
sighted.
Now let's talk about this for a second say no use of Imodium.
He would just put his hand on a man's eyes. And he decided, right?
This is a greater miracle. Why is it a greater miracle? Because this
is something we could do. Whereas at the time of Satan, Isa, if you
didn't see is a miracle for him only. It will say nice has passed
on. He's not in this world anymore. So how can we get that?
But the Prophet SAW Selim has taught us something that
everybody's needs can be met, rather than simply one miracle.
Alright, that only benefits that one man and it benefits
strengthens the faith of everyone else who saw it. Okay. And the
people who heard about it less so. Because hearing is less than
seeing
but the provincewide said alums method is to give some peep
someone something that everyone else could imitate. And that's why
this dua Luca Dar Al Hijrah Inshallah, we're gonna repeat this
again tomorrow we to put the DUA on the screen. Okay.
But just remember that the word to Elijah, I turn has two
prepositions to Allah with what you always must turn with
something.
Oh Allah, I turn to you with my poverty, because Allah is
merciful. I turned to you, with my fasting. I turned to you with this
hedge. I turned to you with this sadaqa that I'm about to give. I
turned to you what teaching children Quran, I turned to you
the story of the famous Hadith of the cave where three men who were
in a cave, and then the rock was moved a little bit they were they
were stuck by a rock in the cave. And then they each made to us soon
through a deed, Oh Allah, we turn to you by this good deed. And each
one mentioned a good deed of his one of them's good deeds was he
was so good to his parents. He went and he would not feed his
kids milk. Okay, they were very poor until his parents woke up.
The parents fell asleep. One night, he stood there with the
milk and would not feed his kids before he feeds his mother and
father. So he made to us it with that another man made he said, Oh
Allah, we turned to you in this prayer with what? One man he said,
I had a man, a worker that I owed him two sheep.
And he left before I paid him.
But I kept track of the babies that those two sheep had, and
their offspring and their offspring and their offspring. And
when the man came back, I gave him those two sheep and all of their
offspring. In other words, he didn't have to do that. He could
have lied. We can tell sheep from sheep. could just give him two
sheep. He gave him that he So honesty in business, okay. The
Rock moved a little bit more, the third one. Now, you might say,
well, I don't have any of these good deeds. Well, this is the
third one. He said, Oh Allah, I turned to you. Because of that
cousin that I had. That was so beautiful. I wanted to marry her.
She rejected me for marriage. A second time she rejected me for
marriage. She could she rejected for marriage a number of times.
And I wanted her so badly for marriage. Then times change. She
became poor. And she came to me for a loan. And I said, You know
what the price is? And she went and she laid down on the bed.
And then as I'm about to commit fornication with her,
because she's needed the money. She said, don't break the seal,
fear Allah.
I got up right away, give her the money. I said go ahead.
His good deed was not committing Zina, right when he wanted to
commit Zina.
So at toa Jaya, facing Allah turning to Allah is to and by his
two prepositions, their Illa and B.
And the east of artha here is as a suitcase that is of all data
submitted to us so meaning it is to Gotham informing that I'm
making to us I am asking Allah by you that's the meaning of that.
Yeah, Mohamed Salah is Allah and then the gives you the various
different wordings authority all the Hadith he talks about this
okay.
And Allah Masha Farah who fee What's your fear any fee? Okay,
I've been I've seen different rewired but it is a Hadith on saw
here. Okay. That is narrated in a Timothy at all
The and other books. Alright, so what do you think of that swipe?
Left is, so it has a mic
while we open up for the Insta, I think what's truly miraculous
about the hadith is
it's actually consistent with come up with.
I think what's truly miraculous about the hadith is that it's
consistent with all the foundational principles of eemaan
as because ultimately what the Hadith
at least what I'm gleaning from the hadith is that it is actually
another manifestation of
the creative of our deen which is Lila Allah, Muhammad Rasul Allah,
and that is the ultimate separation between truth and
falsehood, good and evil. That's the ultimate thing. And so, at the
bare minimum, when you were acknowledging that the Prophet
Muhammad Sallallahu wasallam is the intercessor he is the seal.
Yeah, what you're actually acknowledging is the foundational
principle of our faith. And so that manifestation of that is
actually at the core of everything that is related to our tradition.
Because when we do deeds, where do we learn these deeds from the
source of all deeds is belief in the prophesizing. Right? So that's
the source of everything. And that's why it's the greatest
receiver, because it's the source of everything. This is one of the
reasons why that hadith, that's how they explained the Hadith,
the gorilla, what prophesized sensation and not tell you
something greater than smiting swords and getting some inward
swords and giving golden silver? The said yes, so it must be Allah
is the gorilla? Well, why? Because Nikola corrects the intention,
which is the only way for all those deeds to be accepted.
So as a technical fifth point, the scholars then have probably
different statements on to they agree that to us, love of the
righteous, they agree that love of the righteous is also a sin. They
differ, perhaps a different but I don't think really they differ
much on the istikhara by Elia. In other words, to do the same thing
with the OTO of Allah. Now, you say, Well, why would we do that
when we have is still out there with the prophesy son? Okay. Well,
there there are reasons, because it may be that at that certain
point, that this will lead to something great has karma from
Allah is manifesting.
It could be for some reason that it's on your mind. Right? And it
could be both at the same time. But we're not here to talk about
us about that. Without it we are talking about purely about this
hadith contains in dua, so heed to us honest about that. These are
names that came afterwards to describe what's happening. It is
informing, turning to Allah by you. Isn't it also the nature of
submission as a whole because if you look at human beings and the
jinn, we're the only beings are obviously, there are other worlds
but we're the ones with freewill. So if you look at everything
that's created by lists upon rocks, trees, gravity, whatever,
they don't have a choice in the matter. So they acknowledge the
truth of reality. Yeah. The general and the specific. So
you've got the general which is, there is a list upon with that He
is the Creator. Yeah, but the specific is
the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam so that the wall
is actually I guess, you could say, lining us up with the reality
that everything else in creation already recognize and see what
many people think is
every time they word yet, it's a dua right? Here, look at what
clearly what the word is saying. Yeah, Muhammad. Oh, Muhammad, I'm
turning to Allah by you.
Good. That's the meaning of it.
And this is what many people have. There's an element of gratitude to
and there is it because gratitude? Yeah, did the Prophet Muhammad
sallallaahu Salam himself, because when you're saying through you,
like you said before, it's actually as the scars have also
said, it's actually recognizing that
it would be blind without without him, yeah, we wouldn't know what
to do without him. And so what we're saying is that we understand
the general reality, but we don't understand the specific ground
that is actually going to create that level of peace or that sense
of the cane and tranquility that we need. It's extremely important
to elevate the attention that a Muslim gives to the Messenger of
Allah when he was done, we would not have any of these deeds
without the proper size and it's just as simple as that you would
not know anything. Without the messenger How do you think the
messenger you don't say thank you to the messenger, you give Salah
and salam and you represent his son, US
Yesterday I heard in a lecture from Schiff,
where he said that Malik was asked question that when I'm in the
huddle, and the message is no boy,
like, Who do I turn to? When I'm making block? Do I turn to like
the group of processes and turns to the Qibla? Malik said, why
would you ever turn away from the grief of the Prophet? He's a
distributor, Allah is the Giver, and he's a distributor.
I was just quoting him a medic, when a man asked him, when I'm in
the messenger visiting the masjid and who I sent him and I'm
visiting the prophets, I said, and I want to make dua, to I turn my
back to the Prophet and face the Qibla or do I stay facing the
prophets I send them
and medics said how could you ever turn your back to the messages? I
send them what Allah has when he has said, Allah is the Giver and
I'm the distributor.
Now if you're if you're sitting in front of the prophets, I sent him
and he's a life, wood and you're making dua, would you turn your
back to him all of a sudden, right? How many people sitting in
a Hanukkah they just make dua, right and adapt to the province. I
said, I'm living is as adept at passing. That's another quote from
him and Malik his homage
may you then automatically Hagen is Halima and death is his whole
life. He means the sake sanctity, the respect and the honor sanctity
is that when something sacred you have more rules to it, more
respect to like the the Masjid Al haram, many youth wonder why is it
called Muslim haram?
Tibet, right. Haram because there's more stuff that's haram.
Right? There's a haram, something sacred, there are more rules
there.
Right? So the hallmark of a human is not the home of an ant, you can
kill an ant, if it becomes a pest. You can kill human if it becomes a
pest. Right? If he was becoming a pest and annoying, you can't kill,
you can kill a cockroach if it's pasty and annoying. So huruma is
that involves that there are more rules in respecting and honoring
it because it's so sacred.
How much of it is also tied to the notion that going back to this
idea of submission that we as human beings, obviously, because
we're not the creator, we have no right in determining who has that
elevated rank or station yet. So the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu,
some, you know, obviously, when you're making dua through him,
he's the agent, you have a guarantee. Well, he's but he's
also the apex. And so in particularly modern times, where
there's this notion of the ego, or the self being the highest, or the
apex, oh, yeah, there's a reversal of this completely, because what
we're saying through this was that, regardless of how you feel
about yourself, or others or other powers, anything, Allah subhanaw
taala determines what is the apex, not you. That's an important
point. And many people they have an issue with this concept of
honoring the messenger, so I send them because they have an issue
with that and other human beings
is given any, that type of respect, or that not respect maybe
that of course, I think every Muslim would respect the prophet
but the Quran only, and the people who downgrade from the MACOM of
the Prophet sites,
they're there they what they have, I believe, is an issue with that
have an issue? Or he's a human just like us. Okay? If he's a
human, just like you go start a civilization and start a religion
and start all that, right. He's not human just like you. Subhan
Allah. Go have all the family that he had nine wives, you don't even
have one. Right? Yeah, nine at one time. And he had the entire
peninsula of waging war against him, and still was able to come
out and make people love him. You know, how much of a positive
relaxed mood you need to be in to be lovable. Right? And if you
waged war that much, what did your personality be changed? Like you
you, you would become like a rough tough, like nervous. I don't have
different nonsense type of person, right? People who run like a
Dunkin Donuts, they become like that just because you own one
Dunkin Donuts. He's like, well with the world, because he's his
child, he's got a challenge or guy owns owns a business, right? These
guys who own these companies, they walk around like kings, and they
walk around like killers, because that's the attitude they took on
when they were in the business. When the business succeeds. He's
an arrogant prick. Right? Here you have the massive size. He did all
that and he won. He conquered all these. And he did not take the
spoils for himself. He gave it all away. And he sat on the floor and
he slept, slept on the floor.
show anybody to win all those spoils of war. So Mecca would have
been all his. He could have got the right.
In which the law is 1/5 this was this for him. Right? He was the
one who led it all. He led the campaign. Right? He initiated it.
He's a founder of the religion. Go to thought if 1/5 of that is him.
Okay, imagine an American today 1/5 of New York is yours 1/5
District
Argosy wars, conquered territories right conquered wealth, and then
give it all away. I mean, that's why this is the prophets I send
them was the richest men in Arabia. Because you if you gave it
all away that means you owned it at some point, right? So why why
is it important to show the rich that Islam did not decrease him in
wealth?
submission to Allah did not decrease him in wealth it
increased in wealth. Right? And he chose to give it all the way Yeah,
other people Islam increases them and what they may give some away
they may keep some different depending on themselves. So to
show that prophets I send him he's not like anybody.
He went out in this rotten Mirage did you write? Do you have
anything close? So this concept of Muhammad's men and women and he
just a man who just brought the message we're at war with that
type ID that ideology and to me I don't even know if they're Muslims
who have that type ID and you talk like that
first up, okay, what is the first so now we can go to the open QA by
the way, guys want to talk open QA it's, it's up now for grabs. It's
Monday is the day for open QA doesn't have to be related to the
topic.
First question is what is the facet that we can pray by and we
can operate by facet in our FIP is of two types, the facet of limbs
and the facet of creed. The facet of limbs is the person who openly
and publicly and shamelessly disobeys Allah, he has no problem
like he opened the liquor store, he has no problem with it. If so,
bear behind him, you should not be put up to be the men but if you
did pray behind them. It's a valid prayer.
facet of creed.
The rule with facets of belief is that as even Omar said, if they
were to give a mountain of gold alone, not accepted from their
deeds are not valid, even almost said this about the Korea,
people denied. So we say about that is that we don't pray by them
that none of their good deeds are valid, but if they correct their
beliefs, then they can get the good deeds back. All right. Here's
another question from BMW. I respect and love my parents, I'm
in a situation I see my parents supporting and siding with my
brother. He abuses his wife physically, and the kids are
scared of me.
But your brother abused his wife physically, this kids are scared
of you. How can I say justice and be obedient at the same time?
You be okay, do not side with the oppressor and do not anger your
parents at the same time, you have to find where the middle is where
I'm not siding with the oppressor. And I am I am siding with the
victim.
And I'm not oppressing upsetting my parents at the same time. Okay,
so obviously every case has its own scenarios. We don't know the
scenarios of this case. But that would be a rule in America was
once asked by a man. My is my mother is in Sudan, and my father
is in Egypt. My mother said Come to me. And my father said, Come to
come to me. What do I do? He said, Go to your father and
obey or go to your father and Don't disobey your mother. So you
have to find a way
to give the rights of shitty weather do and not to upset those
who should not be upset.
Next question, Brian, what you got? Is it permissible for a woman
who is alone to pray her father to prayer in the car when it's too
cold or too dangerous to pray standing? And no accommodation
nearby? Yeah. Okay. Question is a woman wants to make the law in the
wintertime she's driving somewhere, but the prayer time is
gonna go out. And it's either too cold or it's dangerous to pray
outside and to pray sitting? And the answer is
it's the hope. She waits and then prays at home, even if awesome has
come in. And it's sinful. Because we should plan for the trip. But
if it happened in a way that you couldn't plan it than find us,
there's no sin against you because you couldn't plan it. If it's also
then you would,
you would pray sitting and you should repeat it when you get
home.
If it's melted, you wait and you pray even in a short time. But if
it's actually you would pray sitting like in a plane, and
essentially, but there's even some automa who repeat their prayer
when they pray it on a plane
because they're not standing and they willfully got on the plane.
So far, it says in the driverless Shaban, we asked a lot to change
what is in Maliki?
I thought only the low Halima foods can be changed. Yes, they
may be
Some different on the name of which book is which will love
Giada Adam and Allah knows best
how can one pray Rosa Rasul saw Salam Allison what are the
right? Oh Allah Robo. I thought he's talking about fasting for a
second because I do know my oh to do now how can we one fray at
Baroda you go in and you pray and you make intense DUA and you don't
think about the dunya unless it's a matter of dua than acceptable
make dua for your deen and accurate and then your dunya
okay
how do we reconcile with something this is cosy Chloe, as gruesome as
stoning to death and Islamic law. Reconcile it, that Hellfire is a
lot worse. And when you
do a major sin that is like that you are earning for yourself the
hellfire
and hellfire is a lot worse. And stoning is something that the
prophets I send them he told us that
avoid the hood as much as possible meaning judges find some doubt to
downgrade the crime right find some dealt to downgrade the crime
at that it will who do the check profits Hadeeth find a doubt that
would cause you to downgrade the crime not had worthy so it's on
the job of the judge to try to not establish what to do we don't run
around and look for 100 Good established upon people so that's
the answer to that question and and
the say 91 time he had a companion and not a he wasn't as a hobby he
was his companion like a tabby but he was always in the company of
say not he stole so say not established had to establish that
head up on him because he had stole a certain amount he had
broken a lock blah blah blah. And then the people make him said now
you must hate Ollie. He said no, I love him more because I would have
been punished for that on the Amok them. But the head erases my crime
and erases it completely.
Okay, is it normal? If you say yeah Muhammad's.
Because a local scholar said it's permissible because he would pray
to Allah and in the end, Allah is doing the work.
We wouldn't say the phrase Allah is doing the work, we would say
Allah is fulfilling our need. Correct. And if you had, if you
heard to the beginning, we explained the dua of automatic no
hunay. From the he took from the prophets I seldom when the Prophet
gave to a blind man, in which he said,
We're when we are calling and saying, Yeah, Mohammed in that
dua, it means Yeah, Mohammed, I'm turning to Allah through you. The
turning that to what Joe is always to Allah, who it's through, or by
what deed Are you offering can differ. I turned to Oh ALLAH and
turning to you by mice, Allah, I'm turning to you by teaching kids
Quran, I'm turning to you by giving food to the poor. And I'm
turning you by the prophet meaning by my belief in the Prophet, my
love for the Prophet and ye, Mohammed is as if saying, I'm
informing you that I'm turning to Allah through you.
That's what it is.
Is there any recording occurrence in our history of a flying Wali?
Says Jimmy, Jim's
here is flying will ease this flying kuffaar There's flying when
FLP and there's flying Zinus they all they made planes and they
flew? What's? What's the difference? Right?
Right, what's the difference? Right? Hello, they all flew. Isn't
that a miracle, though? Like that's a person was to fly that's
cut up. Okay, there must be an explanation of an angel guarantee
that we can see. Right? Alright. That that would be the explanation
of a flying what is an angel that we can see carry? Well, we believe
in angels. Take a bunch of metal and a bunch of guests. Right? And
send 30 People in the air 300 People in 30,000 feet in the air
and make money off of it. That's also a heck of a miracle.
So I don't know about any stories of flying earlier, personally, but
I wouldn't take I'll take an airline and a private jet.
Okay, what would you rather have the ability to fly yourself or the
ability to own a private jet? The ability to fly? People will be
scared of you. Right? They won't come near you. You'd be a freak of
society. You want a private jet? A lot of good things.
You could lease that thing out.
You'd have to work another Daniel so I'll take the chunk of metal.
We are cut off much
Acers
here says what was the end result with cola
after the sewer came down in regards to her situation?
Oh well up into Thalassa
offered sallallahu alayhi wa salam
she complained to the prophets I send them okay. She complained to
the messenger peace be upon him. And Allah heard her DUA and Allah
revealed Quran. Okay, well reveals Quran about her. And I want to
make a call because I hope I'm not mistaken to situations in which
the prophets I send them went to the man and asked if he would
leave her. But I don't want to confuse I think I believe I'm
confusing two stories, actually. Because there was another woman
who said, I don't complain about my husband, Indien, or character,
but I fear COFA meaning I feel to be ungrateful to him. Right? And
then the prophets I said, and I'm said, Did he give you anything?
She said, he gave me a garden as a gift. He said, he brought them in,
and he said, Would you return the garden to him?
She said, Yes. And he said, and now divorce her, because he gave
you something that he gave you. That's called the hula. So we'll
look that up, just to make sure that I don't have a mistake
between the two.
Yes,
in a lot of the Hadith compilations in English, they're
translated, I've been asked this a couple of times, you'll see
comments or quotes from the sahaba. And they'll just say,
Messenger of Allah, but they don't say SallAllahu. They will. So is
that just something that the translators omitted on their own?
Or was it something that as time progressed, that people eventually
started saying so? Well, hey, listen, because I see oftentimes,
you know, there are Hadith where, at least the English translations
of it, you'll see that and put it there.
It said that a lot of them that if it's not written, it should be
written, however, that it may be assumed that it was spoken.
Perhaps the person spoken just out of hosting oven, that the writer
wrote it, and then spoke it. And Allah knows best, but the issue is
that it should be written and there was a man who,
who used to write subtle Allahu La as a scribe, he was a scribe. So
he has to write books for copy books for his living, and he would
write some of lolly.
Okay. And then he saw the Prophet indivision, one night, and he
said, Why do you always leave off? 40? Right? And then the man didn't
understand what the prophet met. So he received a second vision, a
third vision. And then he said, Why do you leave off West Salem,
that's 40 has a net, four letters times 10 each. So then from then
on, he kept saying something, he would write sort of lower news
item. And it's funny to find, like an email this big. But it's you
got 3000 word email. And Salallahu, it was suddenly was
four words, but you have to write saw, right? Or saws, or s, it
seems to me don't write anything at all, and say it with your mouth
better than cheeping out.
Nowadays, you have no excuse because you can get the glyph and
it's an audiotape. So it has to be it doesn't necessarily have to be
spoken in that language. I mean, I've seen other cultures, maybe
people will touch their hearts or so there's some manifestation of
that of that saying is what you're saying it just differs from
culture to culture, or is that something that is I don't say
official, but it's something that is the standard, the standard was
just to write it and say, some of the low it was an alayhi, salatu
salam, something like that. That's the standard. And then for
prophets, I think he's salah, and for Sahaba but are the one who
like Ali, and for everybody else, there's no himolla For everybody
else, that's the standard.
I do know something about the English translations.
So for a lot of English translations, the especially if
they have the Arabic as well, they'll keep the Arabic with
winsol Isom throughout, but on the English, they'll do it the first
time and then leave it out the rest. Okay? Make sense?
Jimmy Jim says did the gin live at the earth at the time of
dinosaurs?
Probably, who knows? Right what you got?
Other questions? We got a lot in the question box. We're gonna read
after one, two. All right. Let's see.
I'll go to who asked first.
All right, we got a scenario here. Yes. A girl who does wedding event
a girl who does wedding events with mixed mixing genders, and
sits all dressed in front of non mecanum Her father is the man the
man
invites people to her wedding Imam not willing to answer, shall we
not pray behind them?
Okay, so this question
seems like one of those that they're going to take the
screenshot and send it to the death. Right?
Basically, summary is this a man is a chef, but his wife, or his
daughter is doing something that would trump would, I mean, be
considered involved with monka which is mix gatherings? And I
think maybe he said that she dressed in us in a way that's not
according to the shutdown or something like that.
Would that be a reason why for the nurse not to pray behind the mm
blow out? Um, because some cases people don't have control over the
family members, if they're like, 2530. Yeah, it's a bullet for him
is for sure. But I don't think that we would not pray behind him
just because of what his family does. Even okay, maybe he made a
mistake and how he but then again,
certain dynamics are different, you know, maybe she wasn't raised
with Him. Maybe she was raised somewhere else. Right, maybe he
entered into became an imam late in life.
All these plants need to he can go get water, things are abused.
These plants are abused.
The, you never know what happens to people. It's you do have to
have a husband and maybe you know the situation. So you're angry
about it. Like that questioner.
He may know the situation. So he's angry about it. But you just you
just never know Subhanallah them. And we ask a lot to protect us
from anyone or ourselves, just doing something openly to disobey
Allah to Allah. But
you don't have to pray behind someone you don't like. Or you
think that maybe they're there. They're not a good Imam. You're
not obligated to pray behind them in the first place. But I don't
think that would be the category because he himself has not done
the wrong. You never know how much he talks to his daughter. Maybe he
says, maybe he doesn't talk to her for for some other reason. Maybe
he already tried. Maybe she's too old. Who knows? Who knows?
Here's a question. Is it permissible to ask Allah for a
sign? If what you are making dua for will come as you can. You can
say Oh Allah,
show me a sign that I'm on the right track with this dua, and you
will receive a sign you could receive a sign that signs could
come in different ways. It could come when you go to recite the
Quran next time and you open up in the first verse is festa Jabba la
hora boo, or you open a YouTube video and you're just listening
How do you execute an oath?
You would fast three days. And we'll talk about oath because
there's some stuff so we'll talk about later. I heard Salawat is
accepted even if one is heedless. Yes, that's true. Does it apply to
other other God? Not necessarily, but at least your tongue is not
committing sits, that's the value of if you're, let's say not paying
attention
in vicar, it still has the value. At least your tongue wasn't
committing sense.
Next question I see.
And we do eight rock as of Saturday instead of 20.
You get a lot of you can do too if you want to do the minimum of
tarawih is today because there is no limit to how many records you
can do a total where there's no maximum masajid it is soon enough
for them to follow the Sahaba which was 20 So if you're a
masjid, it is a sunnah for you to establish the total we that was
established in the masjid, which is 20 Rocco's.
For the Sundays, the Sunnis and Shias don't even pray for the
majestic,
even then Mecca that in Mecca is 20 but even those who say eight,
so we're not gonna We're not saying that your total weight
doesn't count it's totally 268 2028 2636
Say normative now that as he's made it 36 that it goes to have
more breaks in it so that people could leave if they get tired and
make it shorter per showing also that it's it can be changed,
right? But if they're saying eight because the profit rate eight the
profit rate eight in his home by himself, the Sahaba established
20th semester. That's why according to I think all four
methods. What is sunnah? It's not saying that everything else is
invalid, no, but what is sunnah is to follow what the Sahaba did as a
Jamaat prayer in the masjid is 20 Looks like the Maliki opinion on
this I remember like last year or two years ago, back and forth
between the Mackay scholars and like
she'll say here was saying something she'll come to Nepal was
like a different opinion the book ciphers evocative emissary that
the it's 20 Drucker's, but what what is meant by that is the
masajid should establish it 20 Rocco's, but as a, like, a sunnah
to follow those, but it's not necessarily invalid, otherwise,
sinful otherwise if Master said, Alright, we're going to establish
a terminal because they're not sinful for them.
All right.
The and if you pray, today, we had home if you pray to lock eyes with
the intensive data we have thought away. Of course, it's not going to
be the same reward as 10 or as 20. Right, but it is.
Nonetheless,
selfless as can any event that happens as a result of sins be a
tests instead of a punishment. It all depends on how you react if
you react by drawing near to Allah and Toba, then that sin is
elevating you. If you react by just being patient, but you're
miserable, and in pain. It's a forgiveness of your sins. It's a
removal of your sins, I should say.
expiation of sins, if you react by committing Morrisons and going
further from Allah.
And it's a punishment. It's all depends on how you react. What is
the most effective vicar is recitation of the Quran without a
doubt. And then after that, it is going to be Salah on the message
lesson. Alright car aristocrat which is a Bessie I met him
actually he came to let it to Mr. Shabana then he's from that Bessie
clan. Okay, what are the conditions to wiping over one Sox
for we do being humbly
That's the condition and you do all your entire will do as a
humbly Okay, and there's no condition conditions to the sun.
It's not just any socks. Yeah, I've heard that and I've heard
that it's any sock. I've heard both
and there's certain materials that you can't use as far as I know.
Yeah, okay. So you have to ask a shift Saddam
use if had been solid to use if had been Saddam, and you have to
become a humbly so I beg you to humbly from now on since you're a
wiper on socks you they must be a humbly then right.
Okay, how are we know that this Celeste, you're here? Testing 123
She says, Ryan How are we doing on YouTube? What you got? We got a
question from a as a dean. And I'd say he said Jack, may Allah have
mercy on your parents, man and yours to some would say that Allah
provides even for them.
And we see them getting their needs and desires fulfilled
without any bad yes without making any dua. How would you respond to
this when asked about the need and the importance of making dua? What
is the point of it if we get what we want? Anyways, the question is,
we see the NA
unbelievers always receiving their needs fulfilled. And they get
very, you know, blessed lives or happy lives, and they get a lot of
nice stuff. But they don't do any better to Allah subhanho wa taala.
How do we explain this? Well, there's a couple of ways. Let's
say hypothetically, he's talking about someone who negated the
prophecy of Muhammad, he received the data and he rejected it. So
that we're not talking about the people who never received the
message, because they're a special case.
Okay.
Those that is had to dunya had to dunya is not Allah's greatest
thought. It is not a sign of His love. Getting worldly gifts is not
a sign of divine love.
It could be in the sense of if it's a DUA, you ask for something
you got it and it helped you become more grateful to a lot and
do better Dawa. And do better a bad and be better in your deen.
Then we say that that is a sign of Allah's love, but to receive
worldly wealth, by itself is not a sign of divine love.
To receive worldly wealth is not also a guarantor of happiness. You
got to understand this happiness is really in the heart of a
person.
It doesn't mean that worldly wealth is not necessary it is at
some point you need it right? At some point you want it. It could
make you happier, right?
But true happiness and the Sakina is limited to the people of iman,
there is a type of Sakina that enters this the heart of a
believer
that is limited to belief. That's why Allah says Bill macmini Nara
Ofer Rahim with the believers he's he's compassionate. And Rahim
special Sakina Allah says he brought it down upon the
believers, tranquility of the heart. So don't make the jump that
they have a lot means that they're very happy. Okay, don't make that
jump. And secondly,
having a lot of stuff could actually make you more miserable.
We call that assisted Raj, leading someone Morris astray. Because we
said let's say hypothetically is an enemy of Islam. Right. And
wolves. Why is he so rich? It could be as to drudge. Okay? It
could be is to drudge and the province is so subtle. Allahu
alayhi wa sallam said, is to draw is so that then when a lot gets
him good, though, let me floods, he doesn't slip away. What does
that mean? That means that when the calamity strikes, and you're
on the 100th floor, you're completely finished. You will
never recover from it. Okay, so Allah will finish you from the
world because you're an oppressor. If you fell from the second story,
you just break your ankle and you go oppressing people again. But if
he fell from the 100 story, that fall is so bad, you're finished
for good. Because there are empires and there are people there
human beings who oppress others, they ruin it for other people's
lives. So what Allah is giving them, he's leading them up, up. So
when it's time to punish this person, and this person slips,
they're not slipping from the first story or the second story,
something from the 100th they're finished.
I don't know why everybody forgets about like, I mean, this is what I
was saying, Christian were there. You know, prosperity doctrine,
right. So you get a lot. I mean, they get like, it's so called
miracles. It's the drugs, but they get I mean, I've heard some crazy
stories from the Christians. It's all materialistic. If it doesn't
have to do some reason, a lot has to do with marriage. They hear
voices to marry this person. Okay, well, fine. But uh, and that's
still kind of materialistic. It's do anyway. But, but like, in your
own book, you have the story of Pharaoh. Why? And you have the
story of Jesus who's Exactly, exactly right. So how about this,
these guys? In the middle of America, the biggest churches, if
you look at what they're promoting, they're not promoting
the afterlife.
All they're promoting every single speech, like Joel Osteen.
Every single speech, it's the business speech. It's a, it's all
to get rich. Right. And
that's another story. But
I heard that too. That was the leader was saying to the people,
right? Yeah. Like I was like, the Privy group, right. There's like,
there's different groups. And there was, I was like, in the main
group, with the big dude. He was saying that basically, their goal
is they literally said, it's not about the afterlife. It's about
recreating the garden on Earth. Yeah, that's terrible. We say that
our number one priority is the afterlife.
And the dunya the little journey we rewards is just to get you
going, right? It's like a little appetizer, and it says, you need
some reason to wake up today, right? Because sometimes if we're
weakened even and I think everyone has this a little bit, the
afterlife seems far off. They're still have to die. Well, I gotta
live first, then I gotta die. Then I gotta wait. And then there's
gonna be resurrection and then how
far away is the garden of paradise. So it's the ultimate
goal. But it is in our minds because of our weakness or human
nature, far away from us. But, so that's the afterlife FM. That goal
prioritizes my life. My deen is number one, my family is number
two, then my worldly situation is number three.
But I also need a short term goal to wake up tomorrow. Why would I
go to work? I need a short term goal. Right? Whether it's to buy a
house, to save up for a dowry, to have a really nice presentation
for if I'm going to get married, right? You got to present yourself
right? To a father in law, father in law may not be looking for just
deep. Right? He may be looking for the security of his daughter. I
think most father in law's do. They're looking for security for
his daughter. Okay? Not just deep. So you may be doing that you may
be just building a business for fun.
Just what you enjoy doing, right? So you have to have a short term
goal and a long term goal, the long term goal, set your
priorities straight. Like I wouldn't use you, we should say,
we never I'm never going to disobey Allah for the sake of
money.
I'm never gonna
abandon my kids, my wife and my family for the sake of money.
Right? I'm never gonna abandon the Masjid. For the sake of dunya. The
long term goal sets that priority. The short term goal gives me the
motivation to wake up tomorrow. Like, we need something to do in
the meantime, right? We need something to do. So that's the
idea here. These guys all they're doing is offering you dunya dunya
dunya. But my question is as like, so he said, Hold on Pharaoh had
more than you guys are ever gonna have number one. Number two,
aren't you supposed to be on the path of Jesus, he didn't have
anything. Like he literally he had
a cup. He didn't have a home. So when I go to a to a shake, I
expect, I think we all expect some modicum of repper looking like
what the prophet wore how the Prophet prayed. Right? Something
like that, which is like we're gonna have a beard at least, he
may wear a hat to mark that he's the Imam. Right? We have markers,
right?
Maybe some loose garment at some point. So we know that you're the
chef. Just like a white lab coat is a demark Gator for a doctor.
expensive watches is proof of funds for the businessman. You
know why the businessman dress the way they do? Right businessman?
Even the Muslim businessman, in a certain level of business, when
you're talking millions and billions. You can't just go and
buy your clothes from like Joseph a bank? Do you got to get the the
234 $5,000 suits, the cufflinks have to be very expensive. The
watch has to be very expensive. Everything to the tee is from a
certain places, New York they have this every city I think why? There
it is some of them are showing off. But otherwise, in that field
of business, it's proof of funds. Right? So that some some fraud
isn't coming to to do business when they look at you. Yes,
there's some Ria and showing off and they're terrible people. We
all know that aspect of it. But there is a functional reason of
why it got that way. Because when I look at you, and I do with you,
if you understand that that's the watch, that's a suit that's in
there in that culture. I'm not saying that we should do this, but
I'm saying that it's proof of funds. I know that you have the
money. Now we can talk. Okay, so that's that aside, but we expect
our shoe to look something to dress something like what we think
that the Prophet would have worn loose clothing, a beard of
modesty, but not neither poor, not super glittery, rich, it would be
a little bit odd if the shape came in a Lamborghini, right? It's a
bit odd, right?
Yeah, I would think it's a bit odd, right? I would also think
it's a bit odd if some, let's say come to mbyc Regular masjid, in a
complete like beat up, car. It's a bit odd, you'd want something in
the middle, right? Anything in the middle will be acceptable. There's
a high middle, there's a low middle, in the sense that so that
you can relate. So someone comes in in a decent car, the rich can
relate to him and the poor can relate to him. Right? So but what
I wonder about these people with the mega churches, when you go in
there, that is not how Jesus looked completely shiny, right?
And a suit that must cost $5,000. And every week a new suit.
Jesus dressed like that, even the Hasidic Jews, how were you so
religious when Jesus Moses never wore a black suit? Right? Like how
were you so much on Moses's law? When there is absolutely no way
that Moses wore that ridiculous and then there's the big one like
this. It's not
No one, right? You're not in in Poland and Ukraine anywhere,
right? You're in Lakewood, New Jersey. Right? What is up with
this? Not to make fun of people but it's far from what Moses were.
Right. All right, how you guys pray? Is that how Jesus prayed?
Where was it that Jesus did this? Right? Like You mean because even
the Catholic Church, okay, you're wearing robes, but that's an
expensive outfits. Those are some expensive suits. Yeah. How is this
Christian? Right? Like gold like nothing. And he's uh, this is
super asceticism in the Bible.
So we expect something similar to our Prophet. And that's one of the
unique things here. Alright, Ryan, what do you got?
Okay, we have another scenario.
I did istikhara where things went negatively. I wasn't able to
accept the outcome days later. I decided to pray tahajjud for the
same matter, is it sinful to keep asking despite being shown the
answer they mentioned that this has been happening for 10 years
and they don't want to give up no, it's never sinful to give up but
it's Takata is not the only thing you should do should do is to
shatter as well. Is to shatter you must respect the is to shatter is
to shatter is that you ask advice from people the people who are
knowledgeable in the situation
so it's not just a sticker it's to Shara
and know that it is not haram for you to keep asking ever and Allah
it is said and it's not a hadith in the lie ahead with Abdullah who
Allah loves that the nonstop is asking the man is gonna go up with
that. But do is to shut up so you make sure you're at least in
generally on the right track in life. Okay. By asking the experts
who know something fod, some have been to Abdullah roof, I'm going
to answer your question. And so a lot to add about oaths in a full
and complete
video. Yeah, so we can cover because there are a lot of things
we had, we had to cover, okay.
We, in our religion, if the dunya goes well, for us, we thank Allah
subhanaw It's out and we give charity from it. We help others
with that dunya if Allah gives you fame, like Muhammad Ali, he got
really famous, he said, I have a responsibility to use this fame
for the good, right? To use the fact that everyone loves me for
the good, that's sugar, to use it for the good. And if Allah takes
it away, it's a feast for your spirit. Right? So you now you can
forget about this dunya and focus on your spirit and your Athleta.
And there is a pleasure to that, by the way, you might hate it in
the beginning.
But there's a pleasure in that you find yourself so relaxed from
having to deal with people deal with the world, and all of its
desires and expectations, etc, etc, etc. And you find a sweetness
and being alone with ALLAH SubhanA and not worried about this heights
of dunya
Sheoak though they do warn the youth from seeking that so much
that they actually sacrifice their dunya they come away 10 years
later, and they regret it. You don't want that. So yeah, it's
better to be balanced. But if the situation comes in, you'd be home
like let's say really sick. He's in bed all day, all day or
something like that. You can't do a lot of things we have accidents.
And this it's almost as if asceticism is forced upon you
there is a sweetness to it.
Is there a contextualization with respect to expenditure so for
example, if you look at the Alhambra Palace in Spain,
ridiculous.
So
so but they were just employing people by the way, right Humber
Palace, Alhambra Palace in Granada, all the Muslims came down
to Granada because the last city
and then the king there are Amara and Malik the Emir there, he had
to employ all these artists, all these artists, right? Like the
millennials of 1492. That's what they will we do with all these
millennials? Alright, take pictures, serve golf. So he had to
he had to employ all these all these artists. That was one of the
reasons the only thing that was haram about it and statues. But as
far as the architecture, the celebration of beauty, where does
art come into play? So, you know, with massages that are beautiful,
obviously there's a notion that Allah subhanaw taala loves beauty.
So where does that come into relationships with expenditures
and spending and, you know, extravagance? I mean, where's the
connection between what's the connection and extravagance and
beauty is and the glorification of Allah through it and glorification
of Allah through it. So that's first of all masajid is one thing.
And the reason that the Turks the Ottomans, they spend a lot is
granddad's especially Istanbul. So when the when the dignity
tariffs come from other countries. There, they see the message. And
they're like, well, that's tall dean of the house of Allah, what
is our houses? I think that we should look at the righteous, the
pious, like, what is what are the pious? Look, there are rich, pious
people, you're not going to be the first person with money. Who's
pious, right?
So you have a track record. And there's a precedent of people to
take as an example. So we take them as an example, like, what did
they do? How did they live? Not one of them, not two of them, many
of them, right? What's the limit for them. And by the way, not all
the people are the same. You may be the one pious, you may see one
pious person in a rich family surrounded by extravagant family
members, his rules and his culture and the way he lives is not the
same as a rich person from a pious family. So that's why you need to
get a broad cross section. So you can see who's most similar to me,
that's going to give you the range of how much money is reasonable to
spend on this matter of how to dunya right? That's how we judge
these things.
So far, it says, Is it selfish to love Allah for what He has given
us? Or should we love Him and worship Him solely because he
deserves it Subhan Allah about the it says, if the messenger knows
exactly what we're going to say, and the prophets I said to him,
said,
love a love for the good things he gave you.
That is the starting point of our love for Allah subhana wa Tada.
And it will always be like that, and it will develop and add to it,
the love of Allah, for the sake of Allah. But we love Allah subhana
wa, the first every Muslim, every person must at some point, you go
to Allah at a fear for yourself, you can be lost. He'd be a bit
depressed, I'm worried for myself, okay? I'm more or or I'm a sinner,
I'm a sinful Muslim youth, I'm worried about my punishment. So
fear is the first motive that affects many people. So you look
for religion, you look for faith, or you repent to Allah subhana
which either out of fear, then you realize, Allah has a lot of
promises. There's a lot of promises. If you do this, I give
you this wonderful thing in Africa in dunya. So I want something so
badly what there's only one power, right? Sometimes when I'm
scrolling on my phone, I asked myself, What am I imagining that
I'm going to get out of this? There's, there's no there's, this
is not the power. Allah is the only power. Right? This is stupid
waste of time.
Right? So when you realize he's a power, who is giving, then you
really hold on saying I can get a lot out of this in my head to
dunya. Okay, so you worship Allah subhana wa is out of it. And Allah
subhanaw taala says,
women enter Elaine,
for sub,
well, trafen Nihari La La Casa La,
in the middle of the night, remember a lot worship Allah and
at the edges of the day, good. So that you may be happy.
Okay, so that you may be happy. So Allah has made us worship Him for
self interest. And then once you attain those self interests, and
those Do you truly attain those desires, then you will by nature,
by necessity, you will turn to Allah, for Allah sake, out of
gratitude, because Allah can, and I believe will take people who
asked for it to the level of, I've been given so much, I literally
don't want anything else. This is enough. Okay, you people can
generally reach that level, not forced upon them. It's not forced,
they're not trying to be pious, you have to be honest with
yourself, in my opinion, if you whoever knows themselves knows
Allah, or whoever knows their Lord knows themselves to be more
accurate about the phrasing, which means that you have to be honest
with yourself, okay? And then when you're honest, and you make that
draw, and you work for it may take years. But there may come a time,
that literally you say to yourself, I just, this is way more
than I ever wanted or imagined. And I'm now I literally have no
desire in my heart at all for anything, except to be grateful
for what Allah has given me. And then you spend the rest of your
life like that. But there may be come a time where you do want
something again, there's nothing wrong with that the increase your
habit for Allah. So we should always ask for something. That if
we receive it, we're grateful. Then it's an increased force, not
a decrease. So that's the answer to that sister's question.
By the way,
Sharif, from Detroit, I met him to reef 300 I ranted I told you that
I met reef 300 and Michigan. Yeah, we had burgers together. When the
when the flight was canceled, and his brother till he said that once
saw a Christian during their celebration. They look like idol
worshipers?
Well because their holiday is
Based on idol worship, all pagan everything about it is pagan.
Maybe an idol worship but I don't culture. The culture vitals this
week we're in temple, by the way if anyone here is in Tampa
Thursday night i a Friday morning I flew out to Tampa give the
hookah and then there's going to be a talk at the MCS oval theater
at seven o'clock.
Next question,
Brian what you got? Okay. This one is from our guy and he's traveled
to Bangladesh.
He nafas Hamid yeah Gatka Masha Allah. Yes. If it's better to
study during Ramadan or do more axillary, better in recitation.
Ramadan is for a better Ramadan is more about a better than studying
all right, what else we got? How long does your beard have to be is
what the according to one opinion, in the medical school, it is what
the people call a beard. What the Muslim society would refer to as a
beard, and that its longest should be the fist length. And another
opinion also on medical medicine. I think that's 100 view at the
minimum is the fifth.
And Allah knows best. Say no, Abdullah and Omar was the first
person to do this.
All right, next question is I have one, go ahead. Right is vaping
without nicotine, okay. Like no, we don't do any of that. Vaping
smoke coming out of your nose? Like a just like a?
No. Just think of it as sucking on a baby? Yeah. No, don't do any of
this stuff.
We're very, like, your technical about this stuff. All drugs and
alcohol and anything that looks similar to it.
Imagine a righteous scholar with smoke coming out of his nose.
Right, inhaling? No, it's not right. Even though some.
Yeah, the shisha is very popular. But we're prepared to Aniko none
of that they'll do any of that stuff. People forget that they're
their ambassadors of Islam, whether they like it or not.
Whatever you're doing is having an impact on the doubt. And by the
way, you know that a lot of my I have to give rulings. I don't get
my own fits out. I'm just telling you the rulings and the method,
right? If I know it with evidence, many of my friends do this stuff.
Like they, for example, funerals, or weddings, we always talk about
weddings. And a lot of my friends are watching and they do this
stuff. Just because I love a person. I love them. They're my
friends. I'm not going to answer it based on what you like.
I'm not going to answer like, it's my job to answer it as it is in
the books. I don't answer it for the audience. I answer because I
know that other scholars may hear it.
Other students of knowledge, can tell other scholars Oh, do you
know he said this? Is that correct? And then that scholar
says no. What are you talking about? He's a he's a fraud, right?
I'm more worried about them to be approved of by the scholars by the
books than to worry about that. So So for my friends out there.
Sometimes I do have to give a statement that you may not do. It
has nothing to do with you. Right? Just because someone's my friend
doesn't mean I'm gonna change the dean for them. And it doesn't mean
because they're doing something wrong, that I don't understand
human week, I understand human weakness. I understand human
limitations. Everyone develops at their own pace sometimes, right?
Every one develops differently, so I recognize it. So they shouldn't
think, Oh, I can't come near him anymore, because he's gonna judge
me blah, blah. No, yes, I did judge you but I still like you.
I know you're doing something wrong. You know what to Right?
Right. And you don't, or you think I'm perfect. We're all doing
something wrong. So let's just stick to the book as best as we
can. It duckula messed up auto fear Allah as much as you can.
Right? So people do stuff that's haram. And our job is to be with
each other in support as much as possible. When judgment side, it's
impossible not to judge because if you do something in public, I know
what you're doing. Right? You know what I'm doing? Right? But what
the real question is, do I hate you for it? Am I going to disavow
you for it? No, we're here to try to improve our deen together as a
group.
Right? That's the spirit that we have and that
to do so as long as a person is not going in trying to change the
deen or they're completely shameless about it. Then we'd have
problems. We all have something we're working on. Monet says so
many supplications to get the agenda. Is there anything to
assure hosts in El tema? One of the assurances of hosting and
Fatima. Oh, Subhan a lot of them actually.
I believe that I had read once. That the best thing to assure
hosting cloud summit
is loyalty to the
loyalty to the home. In other words, you do not become a
backstabber of Muslims hater on Muslims, right? You have loyalty
to the general like good opinion of the Muslims allow them but I
read once that that was one of the great secrets of hostile cloudsim.
And make the offer that's the best thing.
Yeah, the genetic data so you should say the right to say the
right to Ryan, if you could please put the link
inside org backslash would have been John says this is Afghani
name
is necessary. Is it necessary to study Islam abroad? In order to
grasp it? No, I believe there's a lot of scholars that are local, I
believe that that you could study with depends where you're from, if
you're from let's say, Fremont, California, there are schools
dermatitis, their their shoe, they're quick and easy says from
the previous question, could you receive a sign just to get through
the hardship, but it never occurring? No, Allah does not play
tricks or receive the sign? Can I be certain what I am asking will
come if you understood the sign properly. Allah does not play
tricks on the believers.
Did not ever allow the shape onto get to you to this. He doesn't do
what we do to kids and lie to them, which is haram. By the way.
The Prophet saw a woman. She said to her babies running wishes that
come I have something for you.
And the baby came in the province. I said, but do you have something
for him? She said, Yes. She had a date.
Lying is haram for us. Do you think it's going to be held out
for Allah? trickery, deception is despised for us? Do you think it's
going to be done by Allah? Allah does not deceive. But the question
is, have we understood the signs properly? A true dream to a
righteous person, take it to the bank will lie, take it to the bank
don't change your actions. In other words, you still have to act
like a normal person. And you still got to do what's in front of
you. But we hold the loss, we say Oh Allah, I saw this. But you have
to ask around to make sure you understood these delicate
correctly. It's not something easy. It's not something random.
It's usually something very simple, that you struck your heart
so quickly, so quickly, and so intensely, and you'll never forget
it. And you say, Oh, look, my opinion of you is that you sent me
this sign if I'm correct, strengthen me in that belief. If I
was incorrect about the sign, take it away from my heart and show me
why it was that it was wrong. Allah who already know what has
already been said about and was so famous had the job, but it's not a
prophetic draw. I believe it's from the side of hate. Oh, Allah
Show Me The Truth is truth. I don't I never heard it from the
prophets. I said, metaphor. I always heard it from the self. So
Me The Truth is truth. And I let me follow it. Show me false, it is
false. Let me avoid it. But Allah does not do what humans do here.
It takes us to shut up real quick. We do that because we're weak. I
can't stand this noise. Take this Shut up.
Or Yes, I promise you, and then we get weak, or we don't have
knowledge, I may promise somebody a job, then I take it away. I
didn't know that you were not that good at the job. So I take the job
away from you. Because we don't have knowledge, and we're weak.
That's why we may say one thing that changed our mind. Allah
doesn't change his mind. He has knowledge, he has no weakness.
When he tells you something. We call these two Joliette. If it's a
jelly, this is a big deal. This comes to the pious, the very
pious, who have really devoted their hearts to Allah for a long
time. Okay.
Or maybe just they were very sincere at that moment. And you
get it to jelly like that, but you just have to make sure you
understand it properly. You should really truly believe that Allah
subhanaw taala does not play games with you. He does not lie. He does
not deceive. And he does not do it too. Generally just for fun to
play with you like the way kids play with bugs.
Smart Allah He is such a good word. He is truthful to His
promises. Will Cole will hack. His speech is true. Well, no, but they
will colada and my word doesn't change. Right? There is no other
word but mine. That means when Allah gives a word that is a
promise,
you should believe in it. You must believe in it. Because if you
don't believe in it, then you're basically saying that he has a
weakness or he has a defect, or he's a deceiver. So we don't
believe any of that about Allah. Allah subhanaw taala. Is
it easy when we deal with him? Does there's no tricks, no
riddles? And who has tricks and riddles? The people who do that to
others? The people who are drunk while I hear palmako Say We barely
got the mcru say it the trickery.
It only comes to the people who just doled it out. You dish out
trickery to others, you're gonna receive it. It's gonna come right
back to you like a boomerang. But if you're honest to people, and
you're honest with yourself and you're honest with Allah, and then
you get some wonderful sign like this. Hold to it tight and ask
Allah to strengthen your Eman and if you commit sins, you may start
losing faith. Don't commit since do a lot of a bad Allah will
strengthen you in
that belief.
All right, next question from Shahida. She says that I'm on
equal isn't a job the same as being granted your DUA. I mean,
would it mean Allah will grant it to you, if you get the DUA
answered on the positive side, in the CF or the context of dua,
if Allah when Allah subhana wa attic gives a person and says a
step by la hora boo,
and happens many times in the Quran.
It means as he asked it, it will be given to him.
That's what it means. That's what he means. Okay.
As he asked, and as long as that person remains on the right path,
it will be a positive for him.
It will be a positive for that person. As long as he remains on
the right path. It will be an improvement for his D.
Hey, there Nayla says that's her name Nyla. What's the medical
opinion on Joomla kata in a language other than Arabic? No, it
has to be an Arabic according to the books. So most of our Joomla
is based on chef A, it's acceptable in the chef.
Now Raj, was stuck on sets Did you use any specific Arabic or English
dictionary when learning Arabic, looking for a better dictionary,
there is a website that you want to do a quick dictionary is called
an online dictionary. Back in the day, we had the hands word
dictionary, you have to look up the root, which means you have to
know the root. A lot of people don't know what the root of the
word is, right? So they don't benefit. So what you could do is
you can go to their many, many online dictionaries. Now you just
type in the word itself will find you the root. It's a good way to
learn what the route is. Right? And l nine is one of those
instantly says, and oh actually let's go with one muda mess. Oh
Mohan nosodes. She says how do we balance sharing our sorrows? Just
with a lovers telling are confining our grief with others?
There is no haram, there's nothing haram about speaking to others of
your pain, if you believe it will help without the intent of
complaining about Allah.
But you believe that by talking they may help me. You take it as a
type of advice. Okay, with the with the intent that they could
help.
Instantly says, I'm from Tampa, and is the one month that I'm
away? Oh my gosh. So I'll go back to see mostly my travels is going
to be stuff that I could go down Thursday night and be back Friday
night. In the future, that's where it's going to be. And once a
month. So it's going to be East east coast, or quick dips with the
plane, right?
So we'll see how it goes.
Next question, right, what you got? Got a couple good ones. Is it
permissible, permissible for a student to sleep during the day
and study overnight is not a good practice, to be honest with you.
The sleeping all day and studying all night is not a good practice.
I know a lot of people do this. It's not the healthy practice,
Allah created the day for work and the night for sleep. But if you
have to do it, then what I highly recommend for the sake of your
mental sanity and your health, is to sleep a little bit after I shut
up, let's say sometime between 10 and one, right?
Even if you sleep, let's say two hours, one hour, three hours,
and then wake up and study as much as you need to study. But to
become a whole flip yourself as a night owl. And then your it
affects your skin. It affects your eyes, it affects your mind. Right?
It affects everything about you. It's not a good practice.
You said related to Ramadan.
Even Ramadan, I try to get home as quick as possible. You have to
totally sleep
in the reasonable hour. And then you're going to wake up anyway for
quite a bit for school and then Phaedra. And then I give the class
after fetch that's going to be online by the way everyone could
tune in on the mbyc.
It's the YouTube channels NBC nj youtube.com, backslash MBS en je,
and that's going to be there every day after fetch. We stopped fast
at the 18th degree fetch. And we pray at the 15 degree fetch. So we
have a break in between. Right so many people don't know about the
18 degrees and the 15 degrees. So 18 degrees, there's two opinions
on one fundraiser. So I stopped fasting at the cautious time and
pray at the cautious time. So to guarantee you're guaranteed safety
that way. So I stopped eating if you go to any prayer app, or
website, there's settings and they'll tell you fedrick could be
18 degrees or 15 degrees. So so the safest thing and a lot of
people don't like this because they want to
Eat, Pray sleep, like one of these movies, right? So they want to eat
and then pray right away and then sleep right away. But the safer
thing is to stop eating at 18 degrees. Pray at 15 degrees is a
25 minute difference, right? Then
go to the then pray after that. And then I'm going to give the
talk after that.
Okay, so the whole deen is to get you out of a robot tree you know
you should enjoy it this this why the prayer time everything changes
all throughout the whole world. The universe is like that. It's
constantly going through seasons designed to reflect robotic tree
is not good for your body.
Change is good for your body. But yeah tdn sorry says is there a
good job for a better job? Yes, there is. I'll be in Neelima and
xenta ilium and Clayton
I've seen the move so I put it on YouTube
YouTube page as drive to get married because the same job is
just to get married, get a place to live get a job everything.
Well, we still have met hubs when the man becomes if he approves of
it because he's much dead mutlak.
Do we go by feelings of the heart sometimes it's the hardest clean
and then the senses that it perceives are pure take care
which is are you quoting about being intimate and for which one
are being needy man CELTA ilium and cleaning puppeteer is
with shooters in
the gym she understood here in Oviedo, Korea, Diego didn't want
to separate and
can't remember that.
I love in time says
there's someone I'm in love with. Can I make you out to marry them?
He is a good Muslim you should say, Oh Allah, let me marry him or
someone like him.
Because remember, a person is truly does not necessarily just
love one person. You love the attributes of that person. Page
Attributes make you think it's one thing but it's another. Okay, so
maybe mine or someone like him and truly open your mind that it could
be someone like him.
Okay. Habad says, May Allah reward you and your team. So thank you
all for very much for Wizard of Oz and Ryan. And so Hey, for

Tanka says what is the best time for evening of God right before

We need a period of time. So to tell us the dimension of Ruby in
the demands that kind of appeared is insurance costs us.
Goes up Chloe, we answered this question on a random instant we
answered that already. But Jim
and he dropped to bring Hidayat to one of our family members
generally, generally is explicitly like that oh Allah guide them.
Just like we say in Salah dinner set up in Mississippi.
The Annex tour says what do I do if I feel like I have no clarity
when it comes to making decisions? Besides this Takata Is there a
daily Islamic practice one can perform to help improve clarity
yes the answer is
you can do is to shadow is to shut us as people and you can do is to
cara cara is that oh Allah this is my matter you focus on one matter
if it's good for me Dima deen and duniya make it easy if it's not
good for my deen and duniya remove it from me. So it's Takara and
it's the shorter helps in decision making. If one feels that their
sins are blocking the risk and blessing from enter their life How
does one undo that is constant is too far especially in the last
third of the night is too far in the last little bit as harmony
stuff. You don't see it there yet.
All right, one more question and that's going to come from
us
okay, hold on
let's answer a couple more. First of all cosy. Clearly what we said
is that the Prophet did the law and he said,
Tell us at three we'll do the check avoid or dude by doubts,
meaning the judge has to find doubts so he could downgrade the
punishment from had punishments. We don't disbelieve in headphones
we believe in that means we're very proud that that's our law. We
don't chase around people looking to do it, but if they did it, we
would advise upon them. And the main reason is that the * Allah
knows that the Hellfire is much worse Islamic law cannot be
separated from the existence of the Hellfire. Okay, we can't you
cannot try to make it make sense in the world. Dunya only
perspective. This Islamic law is from Allah who is also telling us
there is a Hellfire waiting for for wrongdoers in this world.
Severe wrongs can be wiped away by these 100 punishments. And you can
save yourself from a lot of rocks. So never try to separate Islamic
law from afterlife. Especially the Hadoop punishments. Some things
you can explain by worldly measures, usually things in
business where you can see that someone's being harmed by a
business practice. But other things like the Hadoop
punishments, it can never be separated from the afterlife, you
cannot make it make sense without belief in the afterlife. And that
that is something far worse waiting. Well, why did Allah make
something far worse waiting for you? To see that's how he made it.
Right? What do you mean? Why, right? That's how he made it. You
never questioned paradise. Right? So don't question the opposite,
either. That's how he created. So dude, punishment removes that
punishment completely. The sin is off your record. All right, so
next 1x t 90x. X. She says, what advice you give a female who was
assaulted because you weren't hijab, and now she doesn't believe
that wearing it protects from you. It's true, that Allah subhanaw
taala says it protects you from evil, it protects them. But she's
saying as an American Muslim, I get harmed by it.
How do I explain that? Well, very simply, what Allah tells in the
Quran as a general rule, the general principle is that there is
protection there. There will be exceptions. This is one of the
areas in which there's exceptions and where I don't think in New
York, you have an issue with a job, you might have an issue with
a job in Ohio, in Pennsylvania, in Texas, in some parts of Texas,
right. So, there are always exceptions to every rule. So when
Allah says something in the Quran, it does not mean that there are
never exceptions to it, this is definitely one of the exceptions a
woman can go to somewhere heavily right wing area, and she will be
assaulted for ages. We also say that the streets is not the only
place there are other places of protection, okay. And the
protection of, of the Quran is not the only is not the only reason
why we wear hijab. So a person will wear a hijab in obedience to
Allah bras. Yeah, also, just to kind of add on to that. My sister,
she wears hijab, and she has to work in Philly in the inner city.
And she says that like constantly she's he's people you know, who
are getting like catcalled and stuff like that, but because of
the fact that she wears hijab, she feels more protected and you know
the people who are on the streets they don't mess with her and you
know, I went and whenever the goofy I were the goofy in Philly,
just because I know how many Muslims are there. And she was
telling me a story guy like getting robbed at gunpoint,
someone pulled up to the car next to him. And, you know, like, but
then he saw that the guy had a goofy Yeah, he said, Oh, you're
Muslim. You're an Aki. So I'm not gonna ask you about the jacket.
Yeah, so what I said for the Instagram isn't here is that in
Philly, for example, it's quite the opposite hijab is a
protection. I think Newark too. So but the point being is that you
simply have to ask Allah subhanaw taala to guide you to obedience,
and submission to Him. That is our creed and that's our belief that
we are allowed to Allah is deserving and worthy of submission
to His will. He knows better than us. He has a lot to offer to us.
So you should ask Allah subhanaw taala soften my heart to your
commands. Simple as that. soften my heart to your command, whether
I understand it or not.
I hope that answered the question.
Can you make mess on hairpins and we do like if a woman has a pin in
her hair, and she's making the wiping inshallah that shouldn't be
a problem. I don't believe that. That's an issue. Next question.
Does the Cydia and makeup fests have to be made up are given
before the next Ramadan and is it valid? Is it a valid reason for
not making it up or giving fit Yeah, what did he say good I was
paying attention is the the Cydia or makeup fests have to be made up
before the next round comes in the makeup fast.
They should be made up before the next Ramadan but if you don't,
and one or more Ramadan's past before you make up the fast then
you need to fast and pay video one video for fast
To
the boss it says,
I love listening to you misinterpret my Hanafy method
Alright, tell me what was misinterpreted.
The beard
thing I said, but I think that the Jordanians have a book on the
permissibility of trimming the beard, the Jordanian somebody's
got 100
All right, so one more question.
Right. You got one? Yeah, there's a lot of questions I'm trying to
do.
Okay, this one's for Yeah, yeah. Yeah. For Yeah, you got a
question?
Can you reduce the background volume on the tiktoks?
Can you reduce the background volume? That's doable. You just
have to reduce I think the use that like the noise sounds and
homing in on it. Yeah, we have some new sounds, by the way for
that. Okay. So yeah, how's that gone with the new sounds? It's,
it's hard to like important to
just make do it in a video editing software.
Next, okay, so first question. Is breastfeeding a valid reason not
to do make video or Okay.
Breastfeeding while fasting. Anytime that you have to break
your fast for the sake of somebody else.
And there are two conditions. Number one, you cannot start your
day breaking the fast, you can only break your fast if the person
who depends upon you is going to be harmed by your inability to
focus or your weakness. Like who a surgeon. If a surgeon is in the
surgery, he's fasting, and he starts to get lightheaded.
Now somebody else may be harmed, that surgeon may break the fast.
After he gets lightheaded, like after he tries to fast but fails.
Likewise, a woman who's breastfeeding, she tries to fast
if she cannot, then she needs to eat and drink so that the baby can
get milk.
Then you have to make up one day of fasting plus Vidya, which in
this latest assessment is $10. But if you pay it to the masjid, you
have to label the envelope 50 up. Because 50 goes to the Muslim
poor. It's not just regular sadaqa which may go to the
lightbulbs and the masajid buy toilet paper, stuff like that.
What about Keifa? For the one that can't do the fast what's up? What
about Keifa? For the one that can't do the two months of
straight fasting? Is the what? Like if they're doing Keifa for
the Gefahr Sorry, sorry, sorry. For the if someone intentionally
breaks a fast, then you have the option feed 60 people or fast 60
straight days now that Miskin didn't couldn't fast one day,
right? How's it going? Fast? 60 days, right? So that's why there's
an option there. Yeah, seed 60 people is the same video method.
Yeah, 600 bucks. Yeah, so don't break your fast. 600 bucks.
Zet Gam says her eight year old
she listens to the number facts lecture.
She listens to the Nether Alexis? She's an eight year old with a
brains Mashallah. What is her name?
What's your ruling on listening to the seeds with musical
instruments. Now we don't listen to the string instrument by
drummer. And we don't
maybe I shouldn't say by drummer because someone will give me a
quote. But and the flute has some discussion, but mostly is to be
avoided to the wind instruments, and the drum instruments has
permissibility too. So there's three types of instruments
percussion, wind, and strike. And the Prophet he banned all
instruments.
Then, he said beat the drum for the weddings. So that became an
exception the drum has permissibility to it. Then a man
he passed by a boy playing a flute and he covered his ears but he
didn't says haram and a man suggested blowing the horn for the
event wind instrument, and the Prophet didn't say it's hard. So
the automat some automat of the Sheffy and some of the medic ear.
I have saw his quote on it said that that indicates discouragement
because he did not explicitly know It's haram. Good. So that
indicates discouraging, but not the majority of medica and Sheffy
some not all. So that's why some have lacked a little bit of a
laxity towards the wind instruments. And then there was no
exception given for the string instruments or Maine's home.
Computerized instruments follow what they sound like if they sound
like a voice. How that sounds like a drum. That sounds like a flute
mcru or Hutto as you said there's a discussion on the wind
instruments sounds like a string
work traveling Ramadan is makeup and pay no makeup only work travel
and not just work of any Hello
Travel is not normal, but let's say you have only five vacation
days in the middle of Ramadan with my family. It's not the norm that
people do this, but let's say hypothetically, I haven't had a
vacation in two years. I got one week off, take my family away, and
we're just gonna go you know, somewhere for a vacation how to
you just make up those fests. You Odin, you don't have to be as long
as you make up before the next Ramadan. You don't have to be if
the if one or more Ramadan is pass and you haven't made up your days,
then you fast and up.
Like if you're traveling and feta comes in before you say Good
question. When you travel for we might as well do a Ramadan prep,
right?
It's gotta be soon to Allah. Well, this is half of it first. When you
travel, if you wake up for fetch at home, you owe the whole day,
you must fast that whole day. Even if you get on a plane at 2am or
2pm. Right? You must, if you wake up at home or in your city, when
Fajr comes in, and you are in your city, okay? You Oh, you must fast
that hold that you have no excuse. Even if break your fast either you
can't break your fast just until revenue comes in. Even if you have
to travel by car across the Mojave Desert, you owe that you are
fasting that day. So only if let's say you go to JFK airport at 11 at
night, and the plane gets off, let's say 3am Before federal comes
in, then you are traveling in the air while federal comes in or
you're simply out of your neighborhood, then you may break
your fast. So that's very important principle of fasting and
traveling. So you owe the day in which you
you wait if you are present in your city for fetch, you must fast
that day. Just important point there. At Ansari in America method
TT TT and Saudis America, by the way.
If you have years of Fajr to make up do you have to make up the
truck is in the personnel.
You only have to make up the fort. Can you be quick about it? Like if
you have to say like 100 200 like our lifetimes with makeups Yes,
you can pray with short suits, but you can't skip to Santa Monica.
Can I make dua and sujood in the last indica up to 200 You can make
dua, or any
suit. You can make you out while standing. And the only time we
don't make dua and Salah isn't required. You can make dua while
standing you can make dua while sujood you can make dua and
sitting and if you don't speak Arabic, you can make dua in your
language in the medical method. If you speak Arabic, but you can't
really express yourself, it's maybe slightly mcru. That's it. If
you perfectly speak Arabic, and it's mcru to make dua in any other
language. But if you can now speak Arabic, you're allowed to make
your DUA in English. It's actually a Lila and Salah to mix.
It's highly recommended to make dua in every subject, not just the
last one.
Is it better to fast while traveling? Yes, it is when the
sumo
passes is better? How do you calculate fasting times during air
travel? By looking what the time is exactly where you are in the
air?
By where you're going or where you came from exactly where you want
it. There
are ways to do that you have apps.
Sometimes right on the screen, they'll tell you the time in the
present location. And sometimes you could look out the window if
you understand how to see sunrise and sunset.
If you wipe over socks while work your humbly
humbly employee you also present humbly No. No, you don't have to
praise somebody if you make we do as I humbly compress dramatically.
Because then they wouldn't be doing death. They'll be doing
death. So So is there a hold on Allah? The question is and also
are these a bet that links and the answer is no. Except for the
Hanafi right? I don't know about the hundreds maybe
stop talking about my mother so
well touch the Hanafi mother
the obligation for a suitor after Feds had just one area the minimum
you mean yes it's a cinder block and by the way the surah which
means you can't omit it soon after fetch it but if you were to forget
it, you can make it up by sudo to so just to do so we should do
rules of fasting we should do rules of oath one of these days
you're gonna get all different tickets for the Medicaid Well
they're all going to be met all these live streams are automatic.
Yeah, no, but our to do a Blab is it's complicated. So
I think it's easy could you close that real quick? We have a good
question I got I think this is from Hey, could you close them
since
yesterday? The phone the phone says close battery a little
better? Yep, go ahead is overall for solar the same as outside of
our for Salah for a woman is the same as it is in front of a
stranger. Yes. In this is an older in this a lot different than the
older outside of
the outer insula.
is different from the outside of Silla, the outer, which is
nakedness out what you have to cover, we mustn't believe that you
have to cover your body. But it's going to be different for every
person. So there's no outer between husband and wife, the
outer of a woman with her relatives is basically the chest
down to the knee. So even in front of your dad and your sister, your
dad and your brother, it would they don't, you wouldn't show your
thighs and low hanging, that even that wouldn't be in front of your
brother and your father. Right? And then for other women, the hour
is the private parts. Right. So there's from permissibility of
let's say, breastfeeding in front of
other?
That's a good question. I can't remember. But I think that it's
all women. I don't know if they differentiated. But remember, what
I remember is that the hour in front of all women is the same.
If one woman though, is a lesbian, though, then it's not permitted if
there's going to be an issue. Right? If there's going to be an
attraction.
Then the hour in front of a strange male, of course, is the
same hour and as insular, the coverage has to be the same
coverage as in salon. A strange male does not mean you don't know
him, it means you could potentially marry
anybody that you could potentially by law. Marry. That was what we
call very stranger.
In the hunter Zabka says in the hungry mouth of its Muslim women
only.
All right, we got a long session today. Here we go. Hmm, more than
two hours. Are you serious? I can do this forever for Subhan Allah.
But you know, the other days we don't do open QA, only subject
matter QA. Alright, we're going to take tomorrow, we got to wrap up.
How can I make dua in every sujood when the dot takes long, since you
have to praise Allah? by thanking him slow up repentance. You don't
have to do those. You do not have to do all of that introduction.
No, you don't have to do all of the long introductions. You're on
salary. You're already doing it. Yeah. And so la Fattah is your
soccer.
Is it okay to shop online for women's personal things if we can
see the woman's out? I guess it's the router because you have to
right you need to buy those things even if we go to Target to buy
these things. You see all that? Haram. Right? So it's, it's you
try to lower your gaze as much as you can.
Folks, thank you so much for giving me the chance to do this
QA. I just I love talking to strangers. I don't know.
See what's gonna go on. Right. But thank you all very much. And I
hope that I see you tomorrow for tomorrow's stream at 1:30pm Zach
