Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al hamdu lillah wa Salatu was Salam
ala Rasulillah while he was a happy woman WADA welcome everybody
to today's stream
in which we're going to talk about
one of the greatest figures in Islamic history. He's a a person
who Allah subhanaw taala has
As has blessed as one of the great Imams on the matter of Tuskegee to
knifes also known as a salute to so Wolf, and that is the great
outdoors closet and J Lani and we may insha Allah.
We will be speaking about his, his Dawa. The way he did things and we
have a lot of sayings of his. And you can read one of the best
biographies 20 Page biography from this book, saviors of Islamic

Okay, saviors of Islamic spirit
from Mecca books.com. And you type in promo code Safina

with the promo code of Safina So apparently, we've got our Germany
and Belgium flags messed up. Yes. So Sofia, French speaker living in
Germany. Okay. Today we are talking about his name, he is
considered the king of though Yeah, no doubt about that. He's
considered the Sultan of an odious, that's his nickname that
has grown. And in the OMA, they this is what they refer to him as
soltanto. Lea. And let's go and
begin with a word from our sponsors. We already mentioned
Mecca books, this is where you're gonna get that book with promo
codes. If you're new, you also want to take professors one to one
because there are SAP courses, there are AC T courses there.
Whatever you guys call it in England, oh level, a level all
these
exams that people need to take the Nursing exam, all these types of
exams that people need to take, you can take these all and get
tutoring at professors one to one.com. Alright. And then lastly,
you guys are all involved in this through patreon.com patreon.com
backslash stuffiness, it is how all of you
would be involved with this program and this live stream. So
today on our topic today,
there are two aspects of a solute
and Mr. Luke element to solve. To escape to knifes, there's two
aspects. There's the theoretical aspect. And then there's the
spiritual path what's known as the spiritual path. And they're
different. Okay. They're different because one is, it's like the the
roadmap, but the other is people who have tried in this map, this
this road, and are showing you how to do it. Get. They've come onto
this road, and they're showing you, you know how it's done. And
that's a big difference, right? That's the big difference between
the two. I'm gonna call them and Jayla, and he has a hand in both
but mainly, he has he's, he's showing you he's demonstrating how
it's done. And what's the difference? Those who author the
theory. What did they leave for us? They leave for us books.
They leave for us the books.
Those who demonstrate how it's done, what do they leave for us
followers and they leave a Senate and have to cuddle Jelani.
He's one of the oldest of the shoe.
I'm gonna refer referee is before him.
And he has a Senate of SHIELD all the way down to our times. Yes,
there are Goulet, who call themselves crowded here and
they're not comedy at all. That's true. And just like Chevalier,
there are people who call themselves share the layer. And we
would say that there are some bullets, there's glue, and there
has been in what they do. So not just calling yourself a name means
nothing to be quite honest with you. If I call myself the rich,
the millionaire the billionaire if I just start calling myself
shajing Monsieur the billionaire, does that make me a billionaire?
Right? If I call myself the President, does that make me the
president? So names mean nothing? How God because what's what
matters? How many people call themselves Muslim? And would they
be described as representatives of the Messenger of Allah? What
isn't? I don't think so.
I just call themselves Mujahideen or them which are hidden. Okay,
these people are far off from the likes of you know, those who who
fought the Mongols and those who fought the Crusaders. They're far
off from them. So calling themselves one thing, it means to
me nothing. What matters is what's called the moon. The moon is the
content of what you're saying. And your Senate of course, we have a
concept of a Senate. Right? So nobody could come and say I'm
humbly where's your Senate? If you're a master of the humbly
method? Wouldn't other masters of the humbly method older than you
have confirmed you?
You can't just go read the books and give yourself a degree
Can I go read medical books and give myself a degree? I'm Dr. So
and so no, no, you're not your only doctor so and so when other
doctors older than you, stamp you and confirm you as a doctor, you
see how it works? Okay, this is how it works. That's what's called
a Senate and we'll test the connected chain. So it's the
chain, but it's also the moon, the content.
Right. And there are many people who could easily go get themselves
a Senate, hang around a shed for a little bit, impress him with
something, and then go innovate later. It happens all the time. So
he's rejected. And sometimes he's you.
If they learn about the misdeeds of their followers, they retract
the Senate. It happens. I'm sure I can get you examples of people who
I've seen examples of a guy in England, he went, and he studied
with some shoe in a Shem. He only spent like a couple summers with
them, right? A couple of maybe a year or two.
They issued him a Senate because he attended the classes he
understands. They see that he understands that you gave him a
Senate. He came back he started off well. He started going a
little bit crazy, because the fits of the age are new every decade
now. Right. It's not like the old days where there's fitna. It's
been the same fitna for like 20 years or 200 years. And the shift
teaches you how to deal with it and you're good to go. No, in our
time. The new technology comes in with a new fitness.
A new technology comes in with a new another new fitness, constant
new fits and fits and fits in. And they mess with people's heads and
people go astray. So he went astray.
The shoe
the students, the colleagues of this person,
they wrote letters to the shoe, a sham.
And they're saying he's now doing such and such. They wrote him a
letter and said they wrote him a response. They said, tell him that
if these claims are true, then stop doing what you're doing.
Well, he refused. They ratted him out again, to his shoe.
They reported him. Essentially, the sheikh withdrew the Senate and
made a public statement. I withdraw my Senate from this
person. Even so much so there was one goofball who is not even
worse, He's worse than a goofball. He's a complete astray type of
person. He went around a McRib, he went on a tour of unmarketable RV,
taking pictures with medical scholars, and the medic, he smiles
at him. And the man says something nice about him.
Okay, and the shares, then
it's as if he's sponsoring him.
Well, then some of these shoes like El Capitan, he said, I came
to learn of his deviant opinions on such and such. You know, this
person who comes for pictures and we smile and say nice things. I've
come to learn. And so I retract all my positive statements. I do
not support this person, I'm against this person. So a cena
then will tussle can be played with. All right. And that's why
you have to really have both the Senate and the moon.
All right, when someone is a leader in spiritual matters, and
he's claiming that he can be a merchant for somebody guide you,
to nearness of Allah subhanaw taala to Allah subhanaw taala.
You're looking at the moon being that is what he's saying. And in
line with the words of the fuqaha and the shittier and al Qaeda, and
are His disciples, his students? Are they benefiting from this? And
does he have a Senate? Okay, so that's what you're looking at
Mahmoud was Senate. Now Abdulkadir and J learning is somebody who did
not leave us a lot of books. He was not a famous author books,
although he did write books, but he's not known for his books. He's
known for demonstrating how this is done and having Marines and
disciples all the way don't necessarily have a moment of as
early as the exact opposite. Where you don't walk go around the OMA
say, Jamaat al Ghazali or TripAdvisor Li You don't find it.
But what you find is his books. So he's an imam who wrote on the
theory of the subject matter, more so than on the
having moods and disciples. Now, the origin of Abdulkadir agenda,
and here's the first thing we're going to talk about
all of the scholars if you notice, they usually have a lot of them
have a very blessed origin. Okay, and it's not just it could be that
someone had a vision about it.
Like the great scholar, author man, dan Fodio was a Mujahid and
he set up a Khilafah the Sokoto Caliphate in Nigeria, in the
1700s, if I'm not mistaken, late 1700s At the time of sha Allah,
Allah in India,
there was in Nigeria than we just did and the Buddha had and the
Khalifa
of the Muslims have
That area off man, dan Fodio. Well, it was his grandmother or
somebody who saw a vision for him. Right? And the word spread in the
family that this is going to be a special boy. That's an example.
That in our low times, did who died?
Maybe I think in 1996, Muhammad Ali Ashara. We, his father saw for
him a vision of a birds chirp, singing at the top of a member.
Okay, sorry of a minaret, top of a minaret, a bird chirping and
singing loudly. So his brother interpreted it for him. He said
you're going to have a son, who is going to be a very his words his
preaching is going to spread far and wide. And it happened.
But not it's not always about visions. Sometimes the good
beginning is about hardships. So sometimes it's these visions but
sometimes hardships. You remember to Makati went blind, and his dad
died very early on in his life to calamities you lose your dad you
lose your eyes. And his mother was in such a hardship. It was just
unbelievable the hardship that she was in. And she prayed and prayed
and prayed for her son to receive his eyesight back
until he did receive his eyesight back.
And then she devoted him to the shield
for his entire life. He's gonna live with the shield. And he
became what he became well without dual coverage. Jilani was
something quite similar. His dad died very early on in his life. So
he's an orphan. He was from Persia, which is right he was from
like what we would call a suburb of Teheran. That's where he was
from what we would consider today a suburb of Teheran. That's where
he was from.
But he was of mixed Arab and Persian descent. And he was the
13th descendent from Sedna Al Hussain
saying that Hussein,
right. And if I'm not mistaken, I think there was also from Satan,
Al Hassan, from his mother's side, it was saying from his father's
side, and let me double check.
Yes, he was a descendant of it hasn't even added not add Hussein.
Even though Persians tended to be mainly descendants of Satan, or
Satan, but he was a descendant of Satan that hasn't. But he was
mixed Persian and Arab descent. But he lived in Persia. Persian
was his first language and he learned Arabic.
Now his father died.
But he had a type of birth that was almost miraculous in the sense
that his mother had thought that she was finished child bearing,
and she had him when she least expected it. She was thought she
was done with life, done with children, but she had him when in
the month of Ramadan, he was born in the month of Ramadan.
And then she sent him off at the tender age of about 11, or 12, or
13, to the great city of Baghdad.
So he could seek knowledge. And she gave him eight gold coins to
live off of.
And she sent him trusting and ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada, because at
that time, when you send someone off that they're on their own.
And the famous story of his beginning, is that
a group of thieves
a group of thieves, surrounded him his caravan, and he was with other
people. And they took over
and they set everyone up to your pockets. And this is it's, it's
it's a shakedown.
He emptied his pockets, gave him eight gold coins. And the thief
said, Yeah, and it looks almost like this is too easy, right? It's
like, This is too easy. So the thief, the head thief told him,
what are you doing? And he almost teaching you. He's the head thief
is almost saying like, we wanted a little bit of a cat and mouse
chase. You just gave up too easily. He said, What? So you
don't do this? This is not what you do. You don't just give away
your money like this.
So even the thieves back in the old day, they had some kind of
like, decency. So he said, When my mother dropped me off to the
caravan, she said, I give you one we'll see a piece of counsel. And
that is never tell a lie.
Do not ever tell a lie. That's my only piece of counsel to you.
And he said, When you all ask, what money do I have? I remembered
I have to keep my words and my mother is more important than my
money. Now keep in mind something children they have no value for
money. They don't care about money. They haven't lived yet to
see what money does to people. It elevates people, it lowers people,
okay? Or that's how we perceive things to be. People are truly
elevated or lowered by, by by their actions and their dignity.
But at the same time in our perception, we perceive money to
elevate and lower to buy into to ward off harm. That's what we
perceive. So chill.
don't know this because I haven't lived yet readily give away the
denote the dinar at the time of the prophets I sent him and this
is way after. So I don't know if it's it's time but I'm just giving
you this piece of information. Just keep it in the back of your
mind, the dinar at the time of the Prophet was 4.25 grams of gold.
Okay.
So when we talk about dinar, we may talk about it in the context
of DIA, the dinar of a person, the whole but the value of a person is
1000 dinars, which is 4250 grams of gold. That's the value of the
case that you're given to live in this world on. This case, is not
the value of a person, you can't put a value to a soul, the value
of your body. Okay, is 4.25 4250 grams of gold. So calculate that
in today's calculation is $250,000.
That's by the that's our law. And why is that important? Because
because we have we pin that down. Lawsuits can't go crazy now.
Right? Can't have a lawsuit $5 million, because of what you did
to my finger. $5 million, because you scarred my face. No. And then
the eye is worth half of that. 125 grand second eye, another 125
grand. All right.
Private Parts 125 Full body, you mess with someone's private parts
full body, in injury of the head, they're all different. The worst
is the one that breaks the skull and reaches the brain. It doesn't
mean you become brain damaged. But that bad. That's how bad the
injury to the head is. 125 grand half 500 dinos. Okay? So
technically, you could actually make a ton of money if you stayed
alive, but you lost each of these limbs, like a tooth is 5% of your
body value of 5% of your body. There's a whole list set down by
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, so that we can know how to
sue. Because if lawsuits go crazy, then insurance prices go crazy
medical insurance, then medical costs go crazy. So we have and
then for the organs, we may have PS, the scholars do a PS on the
origins, because you can mess up someone's organ on the inside. So
we have this and just to give you an idea of, of that little side
point in shear so that just to trigger your mind that what the
value of an individual is.
If you cause a woman to lose a baby,
she's pregnant, and you cause a miscarriage at any point, it's 10%
of the entire body. All right, 100 gold coins, and that's $25,000.
Right? Because
1,010% of that is 100. Okay, and so if $250,000 is the value of a
single body, then the Jeanine Ginny, the child in the womb, is
$25,000. So you if you were throw a brick at a woman and she has a
miscarriage, you yell at her and stress her out, that it can be
proven that you're the cause of the miscarriage you over 25 grand
if she does it herself in the Haram aborts in the Haram, she
owes the port 25 grand punishment. You're gonna pay for that. All
right. All right. So now we talk about we go back to Abdulkadir and
Jalen is beginning that when he gave away the eight gold coins,
the leader sets sat him down and basically was teaching him how you
protect your money.
And he then told him about his oath of honesty. And that leader
of the chief of thieves slowly started to make Toba because he
said, here we are white hair. And we're doing all these sins, Yet
Allah has elevated this young man. Good. And it penetrated his heart.
So when we talk about beginnings, usually the it is said, but even I
thought, whoever has a blazing beginning will have a luminous
end. And he had a blazing beginning and that, you know, it's
not every day that you get
stuck up, stuck up like a stick up or a shakedown. It's not doesn't
happen every day. It does not happen every day that you see the
head of a chief of a gang make Toba. Now when Abdul Qadir Jilani
arrived it seemed to be almost like
a type of
seems to be like a type of coincidence or something that
Allah has replaced one person with another how
the year that undercover Jelani arrived in Baghdad was this just
months before that.
Mohammed Ali had left Baghdad
behind
realize that he left Baghdad to go on his journey.
Mohammed Al Ghazali had refuted every unassuming theology out
there. He had written the greatest book on also
up to that time was considered
the best book then it's still studying until today animals
transfer. He had
destroyed the botany Smiley's
and he was called hajat al Islam. That was his nickname, any heresy
against a holy sunnah that existed, he smashed it, theology.
And he felt that there was still a hole in his heart. After all this
time, he felt mighty man is not close to the man that I see some
people Yes, I have the words, I have the books, I have the
arguments, but my heart is empty. Why? Because all he spent his
entire time
on academics of Islam, the academics of the dean.
And there was no tradition of a bad besides the father than some
basic Sunon there was no zone, there's not a better that he was
doing.
So he felt he entered into it, he actually entered into a
depression.
And he later described he said that when I entered this, just
when a person enters into a depression, the doctors will say
it's because your body
has an imbalance in its humors. As the ancient medicine, we should
also always go by humors there are four humors. Okay, the thick, it's
like the black bile, the yellow bile, the blood and something
else, right? But there are these humors and they say if they're
off, it messes you up. He says the astrologers will tell you because
of the alignment of the stars, right? So you're attracting a
magnetism that made you depressed. He said, But the theologian say
that Allah subhana wa, tada has caused you to feel this way so
that you could do something,
make a change.
He for six months he was he never left his house. And he didn't
speak to anybody.
And after six months, he announced to his family
I'm leaving for good.
I have to go discover after discovering myself I have to
discover the truth of this Deen.
And it's also said that it was triggered by a woman he saw that
was so fervent in prayer, an old woman crossing the street so
fervent in her prayer in remembrance of Allah walk in the
street. He said, By Allah, I don't have a 10th of the Eman that she
has. And I have all the words and all the books. So he knew
something was wrong.
Imagine because it went then on 10, a 10 year sojourn incognito,
no shifts clothing, just common clothing and a cap. And he went in
and he earned himself by applying to jobs to be mosque
groundskeepers. So he was a groundskeeper of the mosques. So
he would go, he went up to Philistine, for example, in
Jerusalem. And he was the groundskeeper and the custodian of
different mosques.
And in his spare time, he would go around the Holocaust, in that
city, and discover all the shields of that city, and he sat with
other philosophers, other scholars of law, and he sat with the
worshipers and the people of a bed and Vic,
until he finally found and he realized that what he was missing
was this tradition of a bed, and vicar.
And so he started following up and learning their knowledge and doing
a battle with them, them not knowing his he's Abraham's al
Ghazali.
And one of the hardest things I think it's in his biography was
that
if I'm not mistaken, he meant his mentioned that him seeing other
Imams teaching his books, right, and making mistakes, and he can't
say anything. I mean, that would drive you crazy, right? And he
would see people talking about him, in good, bad and otherwise,
and he had to stay silent.
So that's what it is that he did for 10 years. That first year was
that he left, that was the other agenda and he came in. Because
when Jay learned he was very different than Abraham that was
that he was the polar opposite, you could say from the get go. The
crux of his life was a Zune when a Buddha, but he but trust it, he
pretty strengthened it with
and in Hadith and FIP. He was a humbly
he was he attained such great knowledge and humbly Philip, that
the great the greatest humbly scholars considered empirical Jama
later in life now. The applicant journey would end up to spend 73
years in Buckhead he is like a staple a pillar of
Baghdad cannot mention Baghdad without mentioning Abu coloriages
That's what he became
able to Kodama, the author of an Mooney was the disciple a student
in fifth of
abracadabra Jelani, and he would say that Abdulkadir Jelani, he had
his circles of two so Wolf,
and Zod and a bird, and I would wait until he was done with that.
Then I would come take fit lessons with him, like, Kodama, he's not
he's telling you the truth. You're saying, I was really interested in
that Zote and that a bad and that they could and that those things.
I will just wait, wait, wait. When he's done with that, then I go
study the FIP from him. So he became an authority and fifth.
Okay. And he authored books of Tafseer.
And his share was a Debus. Alright, hammered ignoramus Muslim
at the bursts was the chef that he studied with, and the humbly
school at that time, people would endow these schools. So the idea
that the Madonna's and the masajid were two different institutions is
an ancient idea.
All right. So my dad has the schools where usually there was a
sponsor, one or two or three financial sponsors. And what they
would do is they would sponsor apartments or something, and the
rent would go to support that school,
a walk, and every madressa had a shake. Just as we read that in the
past. We just read the biography of his Alma Jean Olia that
sponsors put him up. And they put up his school.
And he was the shake of the school. And it would run the way
he wants it to run. The way that in his Alma Dean Olea ran it was
that it was a high emphasis on a rod and atomic bomb, feeding the
poor. And a lot of the Mikado J learn he had a slightly different
way that he ran his school. There was a great emphasis on public
preaching in his mother's itself. And the way that these modalities
worked is that the first part of it was public, like anyone come
and pray. Okay.
And then there was there, he would hold his public sessions there.
And there were rooms all around
for classes, different classes, a kitchen, bathroom, etc. And then
rooms upstairs all around for people to live in. Even the Sheoak
some of the she lived in
Darfur, most stuff on Yemen is quite similar to that I went to a
school in Morocco, which was essentially like a rundown
building that was just abandoned. But they revived it the Kingdom of
Morocco, in alliance with zaytuna Institute, way back in 1998. They
revived it for use for a summer, and we got to live there. It's
gorgeous building, you walk in, it's a big rectangle. There are
rooms all around the edges, and all around the top balcony looking
in. And there's a main central rectangular area that is open all
the way up. And even the roof is not even a full roof. It's like
slanted. So there's a little bit of air that can come in, so that
that area is an open space area. The second floor is a courtyard.
balconies, they they overlooked that area. And it's all rooms,
there's bathroom upstairs, and downstairs, there's a kitchen, and
it's all different rooms.
So that's what these Zoja look like. So the Schick runs his
operation out of there. Now, what does he do what he he does not do,
he doesn't do Joomla there, he doesn't do aid there. Those things
are for the Masjid. So you have to understand these two institutions
that always exist.
But what he did was he taught and he has used that also to teach
with him, but he's the main chair.
And what was unique about him versus the other ones was that he
was a public preacher.
And they had to continuously expand his mother rasa and expand
it because his public sessions would just get bigger and bigger
and bigger. And they had to constantly expand the building.
Now before it ever became his though, it was the previous
Hanbali scholar, who was his shift. And that shift was hammered
the best. hammered the best and the other shave
was forgot her last name here. I will say AIDS and mascara me okay.
Both of them were his shoe.
hammered the best was his first year and her murdered Debus he
used to be really hard on Abdulkadir J. Lani. In front of
everybody.
One of the things he would do is that when they would have
something
like a gathering and everyone will come sit up, he was shoo him off
to the back
When he was young go sit in the back.
When there was a heavy burden to be done taking care of,
he would have a great journey, do it.
He was extremely tough on him.
When avocado Janani would make one mistake, he would fry him top to
bottom. Okay.
And one day, when one of the students laughed and pitched in
with the Sheikh was saying, the sheikh became infuriated.
He's saying, I do this for a reason of Tobia. It's not for you
to pitch into this. And if I was to do 1/10 of what I do to him to
any of you, you'd leave this modulus, but I know he can handle
it.
I'm mad at the best put so much pressure on him in front of
everybody so that they know that when the announcement is going to
be made, that he's the inheritor of the school, nobody should envy
him.
Right, because no one received the hearts and difficult to be upon
him that he received.
Now before Abdulkadir Jelani
ever took the mantle of the humbly school
and the Zoja
he went on to something that would be basically what he is most
famous for. He has the most legendary Kalwa of all people.
His cutter was legendary.
Now I'm gonna cut through J. Lani, is described as being short.
But strong, he could withstand a lot he was short and thin, but he
had a sturdy body, even though he was not like a sickly type of
person. From the people who are short. Are the Prophet dode. This
hobby say not even avatar, the great way they have their color
agenda and can you get a stronger, more powerful group than them?
Right? Like if that's your team Tamala from the people who are
tall are Musa say no Musa alayhis salam
all might have been ricotta and Malik Ibn Anas Imam Malik. He's
with tall they, they all seem they had similar to say this with a man
also say this holy man was taught. But the personalities were the
same. Musa Ali Salam no nonsense. The law is the law.
Say Nominum ricotta is on the heart of Satan and Musa
ematic is on the heart of formidable
these three are all similar in the same words. Likewise, saying the
dude said Nalli send them to Qatar and Jelani. The three of them are
no nonsense but they're their fuel their core is spirituality. And
their outward is no nonsense. I mean, they fought, they were
fighters. All of them doesn't have to be physical fighters saying
that they would say Nadi was now Abdulkadir DJ Danny.
He was not soft.
In the deen, he was soft as a person all of them say not
extremely soft on the person but in the deen he wasn't soft. With
the enemies of Islam, he was a soft, but as a person I'm gonna
call the rigid and he was extremely soft. Anybody who came
with an excuse, he accepted anyone who came with a need he accepted
it.
Like he was extremely soft.
He vowed not to marry ever
until it was brought to his attention that he's missing out on
a sunnah
that he married for. He married four women and from them were some
women were from the elites.
And as a result, he is family was wealthy.
He himself lived off the stipend of the humbly madressa. They have
a stipend for the ship. That's what he lives off. But he married
wealthy wives wives that had properties that had an either
inherited or made money. So we had wealthy wives and those homes
attached to the Zarya were big.
And there was a lot of wealth. But he himself had a regular stipend
that he lived on.
But back to his his, his color. What was his color when he
finished his primary education and his his secondary education and
fit primary I mean the main education in our theater in phip,
in Hadith in Quran, he memorized the Quran, he did what any humbly
at that time would have done
his shed then sent him off
for a bed
and his Kahlua was not like in an apartment. What is color mean?
Kahlua means a time where you come to to draw very close to Allah to
Allah by Tibet to Tibet tool is cutting off
distractions,
whatever, whatever related to certain Muslim,
and he cuts off all distractions in Syria, they still do this. But
in Syria, it's one weekend.
Right? Back in Sham, the scholar Andromeda hoodie.
He gave color to many people and the hardware for them, that they
had an apartment up stocked with food and everything. And you would
go up to that apartment, they'd give you the key, and you would
cut off from everybody. And you would just do the code for 48
hours straight and tahajjud. And if you can fast possible or eat
less possible, okay, whatever you could do.
And that's what they would do. They're right there and the shake
would come in and talk to them and see how they're progressing. Some
before that it was 40 days and 40 Nights. Like what? In the old
days, you had a masjid in the masjid of Abracadabra. Jelani is
still in Baghdad. And in that room and all a lot of the Ottoman
mosques, you will notice inside the Masjid. There are these rooms.
It's a little room, that's all it is. Right outside, right with the
door around the Masjid. That was a huddle room. People would go in
like rent it basically, the key would be unlocked for them, they
would only come out for the five prayers and go back and do it.
This is called this is what Tibbets would cut off all
distractions. Today, if you do that for an hour, you get a
nervous breakdown. Right? I'm telling you honestly, most people
can't. I'm not able to tell you do a bad just set your phone off.
Right?
You'd be like, immediately you your mind will convince you the
world is ending if I don't check my phone, and I guarantee you the
thoughts. Well, my mom just had a heart attack. What if my kid fell
down and got hit by a truck? What? What if my wife is texting me
she's gonna get upset. She's in divorce me tell you your mind will
race and gut. So just tell people, Hey, I'm out of service for the
next until five hit me up at five o'clock. Alright, if you need me,
call me at five. Call me at whatever. And these days of Ottawa
are there are days of renewal
to about to do something called upon I guarantee you people do it
for an hour. See what happens to your life.
Just cutting off and letting all your thoughts settle for first.
Because when you shut stuff off, the thoughts are still here. It's
gonna take an hour or two for everything to settle. And they
take you another hour or two for you to really get into a bed and,
and one of the weaknesses that we have that we have to address is
people don't have the stamina to do a bed anymore. So what why we
wonder why we are a Man is weak.
simple analogy. For guy wants to get physically fit. And that guy
gets on the treadmill. He tells me you get tired after 30 minutes on
the treadmill. We got work to do. 30 minutes today 35 Tomorrow 40
The day after 45 until you hit three, four hours. All the
physically fit people. That's what they do. All the 1600 on their
SATs, how long do they study three, four hours. That's the
session is three, four hours. Right three is good for is great.
Anything less than that it's amateurish.
Go ask the Hindu kids and the Chinese kids what grades they're
getting. Habib. Who did you hang out with in school?
Did you hang out with those Chinese kids? Hindu kids? Yeah.
All right. Got the best periods? They got the coming to the mic.
You hung out with those kids? How long do they study? What's their
study session? Like?
Like five, six hours? Five, six hours? Insane. You're gonna do
that? Did you ever study that? No, I couldn't keep up. Yeah, like
five, six minutes. Take a break. 1515 minute break. Right, tap. 20
minutes. This is child abuse. Kids his sound for one of our kids
because we're soft. Right? says one hour, two hours. Oh, this is
child abuse. Right. I need a break.
No, we need to build up stamina. And I tried it one time. I read a
book.
I got this book. I saw the people talking about it in the news. So I
said let me buy this book. I bought it used for like seven
cents
from Amazon.
And I read the book cover to cover. And it's all about a
Chinese mom and her study sessions for her kids. They never decrease
from four hours. Four hours is your your belt. That's where the
kids get 100 100 100 100 Everything is Andreas right. So I
started I did that myself with with one of my kids. He got 100
It's it's a law that Allah created. You put in the ASVAB you
get a result and Hamdulillah that Allah created laws of nature in
this matter that we could just connect one to the other. So
stamina in a bed is something that we have to build up. Okay,
We have to build it up. We have great stamina and watching movies,
we have great stamina and eating food, great stamina and sleeping,
but no stamina and what benefits us. So
this is what the idea of hello is. Our Kalwa is going to be one hour,
two hours. Okay, phone off and dedicate yourself.
Right? And I guarantee you you're gonna get other satanic thoughts.
The Europeans have advanced and the Americans advanced because
they work and what are you doing doing a bed? Say What are you say?
Why are you bringing that analogy to me or you never bring me that
analogy? When I'm watching TV. You never bring me that analogy when
I'm scrolling. You never build it bring me that analogy when I'm
watching a movie. Right? When not when you're watching the movie you
say oh the importance of relaxation.
Work life balance, right? you justify that but when it comes to
a buddy you get these analogies. Oh, Quran says work. Yeah, metal,
add a gel with the chakra prophets at work. So you're bringing the
analogies and the arguments in the wrong time in the wrong place.
Okay, so just be careful, all these things are going to come up.
That's all from your bliss. Okay. And also for the people around you
who are influenced by bliss.
Next thing is that Abdulkadir Jaylen is Kalwa
people say was four years some people say it was 25 years. I've
seen it both statements, was legendary. In which he would do a
good job of the Quran entirely starting after fetch, and he would
end it around before the end of us his Kadem of Quran will be
finished. Now, didn't the Prophet say do not recite the Quran in
less than three days? That's if you're unable to focus if
someone's rushing, but if you're able to focus on it, and what's
the proof said North managed to do a cut down once a day. Who else
said in Abu Hanifa Salman Quran once a day, say North man in which
someone said that say North man is busy with the color for every day.
Whereas his a burden he's not as their head he's not either but
they said go to the masjid after Isha get and
wait in the corner and see what happens. So after a shot, he went
and he waited he hid himself in the corner so nobody would see him
it was dark. He waited, waited, waited. After the whole mustard
was empty. He saw say North man come out go into the corner of the
mosque and open his winter
with Elif la meme and he didn't finish it until sort of gymnasts
in Turkey jam in which all right, which is one Draka, which is a
pseudonym Okada. If you leave it off for no purpose. It's
considered like a defect and Ivan your dean.
That's what's in the Hanafi madhhab. If you leave Witter,
which is three rock as your sinful
so
out of Kaduna, Jalen is Kalwa
was legendary and he came back to Baghdad, and nobody knew who he
was except a few syllable L. He went back to his school and he was
granted the official certificate that okay, he is now the shape of
the school and he runs the school and he started preaching little by
little by little by little. All right, his preaching sessions
would just grow and grow and grow. So you see how each shape has a
different angle. So Nizar Medina Alia, we never mentioned that he
preached right? He would, he would do a bad and vicar and Salah and
tahajjud mainly, and he would teach the moods and he would feed
the poor. With Abdulkadir Jelani, it wasn't a soup kitchen, there
was emphasis that he would feed, he had a great emphasis on filling
the stomach of the impoverished. But his main unique feature was
his massive preaching sessions, and all a lot of the books that
are attributed to him, our students who wrote down his
preaching sessions, and it's narrated from many scholars, that
is even as even Abdus Salam
is even Abdus Salam.
And even a Tamia who attributes himself to abracadabra Jelani
between Emily Tamia and Abdulkadir journey are three people and
that's in the in it's a me as book of fits our volume 10 Chapter onto
so Wolf. He attributes himself he says we are cards every year we
are an Abdullah and Cordelia and he lists the Senate back to Abdul
Qadir jeelani. Okay. And they say about him, he had many grommets,
his greatest of all Kurama it was his ability to give hope to the
hearts of the downtrodden. He gave them hope and Allah, He gave them
hope and dua. Right? He lifted the hearts of the people. That's one
of the greatest. He had about 1000s of Jews and Christians would
start to attend these gatherings and over the years 1000s entered
Islam. So he was in Dawa to his
Baghdad, do you think about that? It's almost right. But back then
it wasn't right. It took a while for it to become majority Muslim.
There's still Christians today in Baghdad, Christians and Jews
entered Islam with Abdulkadir EJ Lani, and of his physical keramat.
There is a story of his physical keramat in which
if he always followed this on of accepting invitations, well, one
day he got challenged, a challenge came up to him. One would, he'd
invited him.
Unbeknownst to that moody to another modied have that
invitation he invited him
so they didn't know about each invitation. So this was a test.
And Abdul Qadir jeelani
accepted the term he accepted both invitations.
And both dinners were at the same time.
So what did he do?
We have a very similar story to Abdullah Adnan Mubarak.
If you remember Abdullah and then that's the same explanation.
Abdullah Adnan Mobarak has documented that he gave away his
heads money to a poor woman that he saw, he said, I've made Hajj,
she's in need of the money or give her the money. That was the night
before they're all the caravan leaves. So we spent the whole day
in his home ashamed, embarrassed that he's not going for Hajj, and
dejected.
And the entire month or two months, whatever it takes for
people to make hajj it passed and they came back.
And when he came back, when the people came back from Hajj, they
saw the loving Barak in the masjid in the marketplace. Every time he
would see someone they would he would welcome them back from hajj
and they would say, thank you so much for everything you did for
us. He wouldn't be what he said. Thank you all the kudos you gave
us and leading our hedge group.
He became bewildered.
Right? He went back and he told his wife everyone is saying to me
thank you for coming and being with us for hedge
use saw I was here. Am I going crazy? Are they crazy?
So we asked Allah Oh Allah show me what's happening. How is it
they're all saying thank you for coming guiding us in halogen for
the classes. yet. I know I was here. I never went to Hajj.
That night he slept and he saw a brightly faced man and he said who
are you? He said I am Your Habib in this life and your Sofia in the
next life your messenger Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa salam.
And he said immediately he said, almost all of what happened. How
are the people telling me thank you for coming to Hajj
and supporting us and guiding us when I was right here. I did not
move from the city.
The messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Allah subhanaw taala
created an angel on your image, to go to Hajj to guide the people and
teach them
of your words and your voice and your image. Okay.
And Allah has accepted your hedge for you. Okay, he's counted you
that you did hedge and all the people think you did hedge too.
And you get the reward of teaching all those people to because of
your sadaqa to that poor woman Well, without doing other genetic
same cutomer happened
that didn't have to do with Hajj, just the invitation. And then both
Marines came back the next day and said guess what, I had the sheikh
with me for dinner. He said Wait, no, I had the sheikh with me for
dinner. How did that work? It works because Allah tried to
create some eye look in his form.
And ultimately, we say Allah knows best but this is what they report
to us. And there's no reason just because something is sounds far
off for us to reject it without it with with both this one and
for Abdullah Nan Barak It's a well known caramba that happens to them
with like transmissions in the work, not fairy tales and folk
tales. So it's possible. If Allah wants something Khurana like that
to happen, it happens but
it Tamia here is quoted likewise is enough to set up his greatest
karama was his alteration of people's hearts, his sermons, his
talks, his speeches, okay, they altered everybody kings, chiefs,
the wealthy ministers, military leaders would all be affected by
his words,
criminals would repent. So, he was known for this his dollar work was
extremely important.
In his FIP he was respected and he relied upon the humbly and in some
cases chef, he humbled himself a FIP are very close because in
their azul, they rely they they accept the head Hadith as law.
Okay, whereas the Hanafi and Malachy FIP they use something
greater they have a source that's greater than a head solitary
chained Hadith. So that's
Why humbling himself a fifth can overlap in a lot of things. He
talks about how does a person this is this is one of the most
important teachings that he has. How does the person come to know
Allah Subhana? Wa Tada.
This is so important, you have to pay attention to this. Like how
does a person go from a regular guy to somebody who is what we
call IRF Biller, that means extremely near to Allah subhanaw
taala. And he said, this is the formula.
He says that a person finds himself in trouble.
And he starts to try to get rid of his trouble like we would all do,
right? I'm in the gym, I'm trying to, to get out of my gym.
He says he says, But he fails.
When he fails, he turns to the other creations. This is the
natural status of human beings. Okay, I am in trouble.
I tried to fix it, I can't fix it. What do I do, I start calling my
friends. He says he starts to go to his friends, then he starts to
go to the officials, then the rich then the people who can help him.
In case of illness, he goes to the doctors.
If the doctors fails, he goes to the people with herbs, all that
stuff, right? As we all do, he says then Allah causes that to
filter that doesn't work. When that doesn't work. What does he
do? He goes to the religious people. He says, teach them how to
make dua, how can I call upon Allah. And he starts to say, the
invocations and the praise is Allah and he starts to praise
Allah hoping that Allah will change the situation.
And he gets engrossed in that world.
And the problem doesn't leave. But he gets more and more engrossed in
the world of prayer, and the world of dua, until he finds such an
intimacy in that world that leads him to eventually submit his
entire affair to Allah.
He realizes that the adab when dealing with Allah subhanaw taala,
is submit the affair 10
And he submits himself completely to Allah, Allah will not change
you until you submit yourself completely to Allah.
And you are as if you're a corpse in the hands of someone dead, of
the of the washers of the corpse.
Or as if you're a ball and in the hands of a child, you're
completely submitted, fueled by the sweetness of this dua, you
find the sweetness to the DUA, and you're inspired to completely
submit yourself. He said, once you submit yourself now Allah Tala
works on you.
He works on you. He, how do you become a colleague, you can't. But
you can let Allah make you a woody. You can't go and make
yourself worthy of Allah and out of Beloved, but you can let Allah
do it for you, how you have to be submitted, you have to be nearer
to him. You can't be resisting.
And so you're in a state of complete submission, just as He
says here, as a corpse in the hands of those who obey that. And
what how were you in that state in your liquor sessions in your a
Betta sessions, that you are like, a corpse in the hand of the one
who made and washes the corpse. He says in that he is immersed in the
remembrance of Allah, the remembrance of Allah will work on
him and change him and transform him, he will come out at the other
end of this a completely different person said this is the path
by which a regular man becomes if Billa.
So
he also talked about the importance
of uplifting other people. The greatest of uplifting is to feed
the stomach of the hungry. All right, that's the greatest way to
uplift somebody.
Once he becomes oblivious to himself, he now views other Creek
creatures as the creation of Allah. So I don't view you
anymore. This is how this is the mentality, you know, so when I
come when I'm immersed when I come out of that, and I come into the
world, and I start dealing with people, you're now supposed to
have a different view towards people your view towards people
should now not that you're Mr. Smith, you're Mrs. Jackson, you're
Abdullah, you're semi you know, you're Allah's creation. He's
Allah's creation, she's Allah's creation. I can win the love of
Allah, the way I treat by the way I treat you and by my emotions
towards you, by having some compassion towards you, by having
some hope of good towards you. Right? By stopping you from
harming yourself even I can gain the love of Allah subhanaw taala
by loving you, or by being compassionate to or generous to
you, or whatever the city requires. Okay? So he says here
now,
his interaction with people becomes interaction with Allah,
I'm not interacting. I don't even believe that you
are some autonomous creature, the creature of Allah, Allah put you
in my life for a reason this is also why did the shoot people
asked about what it will do. We don't really call that doctrine
because that's confusing term. We say why did a shoot? This is what
the Allamah have said is rotten wood makes it sound like all of
existence is one thing. It's not what at the shewed test.
My witness of things is one, I only witness you to be
a creation of Allah, I witness you, my witness of you is that
Allah put you in my life for a reason.
My interaction with you is really my interaction with with Allah in
the sense because I view you as his creation.
73 years he preached in Baghdad and he was a pillar of Baghdad,
and at that time, the Seljuks were overtaking the Besitz
and the Seljuk Sultan gained victory over the Khalifa Al
Mustafa should
get at that time, and the people dismantled the pulpits of the
mosques, and they stopped going to the prayers and women came out
crying for the Khalifa.
And the people in other parts of the country followed suit.
And the Khalifa was assassinated by the Ismaili Shia now the
esmaeili Shia at that time,
were what we call today, the Biharis
ismaily These are two types Nizar ease and Biharis. The chain of
transmission from the Isma unique times, the bots many times the
flotsam, it's all the same botany Fatimids is made the same thing.
These people who cause a lot of trouble in the time of arrival,
Hamza was early
there, their lineage today is what we call Bihari Ismailis. They
still pray, they fast. They tried to do Dawa, they study et cetera.
But the Shia and they have Cofely beliefs.
Then Bizzarri Ismail is they broke from that. And they followed
another Imam and a series of Imams. And they believe that the
Imam has the right to abrogate the Sharia.
And they don't pray and they don't fast and they don't make Hajj.
Hajj is to the Imam, not to the cabinet. And you pay 12.5% of your
income to the email. Great religion, right?
If you're the Imam, not if you're the followers, that's an Azhari
estimate ism. They don't even pray. I mean, so it's so far out
in left field.
And so the Bihari Ismay these are the today you'll see them. They
have usually big beards, they wear gold strip around they're white,
they wear a white goofy and a gold strip around the white goofy. And
the women were like not to make fun to be honest with you, but
it's like a kindergarten type of hijab. It's like a like a we use a
little girl six years old coming to his class for the first time.
And her mom puts on a hijab. It's like a one piece and it goes down
and it has like loops and flowers. You'll see them walking around in
the marketplace and they're all Indians by the way. Get
the original thought tummies and smile. These were Arabs, right but
now they're all Indians. There were there were North Africans and
Arabs. But now all she has pretty much mostly are non Arabs except
for some Lebanese, but they were this. It's really It feels like a
kindergarten dress in a kindergarten hijab. So if you see
that, you know that that's a Bihari those are the descendants
of the Ottomans and the Israelis. Those were the ones causing
trouble at the time of Abdulkadir and Jelani. And he was a witness
to all of this drama.
Right and they were the fuel of a lot of his preaching was because
of this great fitna that happened in in his time
his sermons are created ours are gathered in a book called Photo
revelations of the unseen and also the book called and fats head
Rabbani.
And another book called several extra secrets of the secrets. The
lordly revelations are godly revelations and revelations of the
unseen the theme of all this is recognition of Allah subhanaw
taala by gratitude and sincerity. And
if you think that when you read these things, your skin will crawl
because he's going on the attack, you're gonna if you claim to love
Allah here, I'm gonna affect who maybe he was talking. Maybe there
are people in the audience that made him go like that, right?
But no as a book form, you can open up one of these books. What
do I do, right? Hey, I'm just trying to be a regular Muslim got
me
Maybe that's why speeches are not like books. These are you have to
understand their speeches. Okay? So he may be talking to people and
he's pointing to people in the audience. So just to give you a
context of how to read these books, without feeling you know
what, man, I tried to get some inspiration. I feel like I'm
terrible now. Right? And so you don't feel like that.
All right now Secondly, it is good for us
to accuse our knifes so we should allow for that accusation of the
neffs. So if I tell you you're gonna fuck, you should accept it.
You probably are. If not when Africa of belief when Africa of
action, so there's absolutely nothing that you say, except you
do it. Is there anything that you do, and tell people not to do it?
Of course, there's something that we're more in Africa about
monographic of hypocrite of actions, not necessarily
hypocrites of belief, Inshallah, none of us are hypocrites of
belief. We can say we are believing and in this deen and
this Athena, but it so there's the hypocrisy of belief, and the
hypocrisy of action. And we should we could all accuse ourselves of
the hypocrisy of action, and we should fear as well the hypocrisy
of belief.
He talks about the issues of the day, he did not ignore the
maladies of people and the issues that people had today. Right.
And he spoke when he spoke about Allah one of his examples is the
following. The entire creation is like a man who has been imprisoned
and chained by King whose Dominions are vast, and his
countenance awesome. The prisoner is chained to a pine tree, beneath
which there is a river wide and deep. The King is seated and
elevated on a chair with arrows and bows, javelins, and spears
next to him. And he strikes the captive with the weapon whenever
he wants. Now, would it be prudent for anyone witnessing the scene to
divert his attention from the King and expect harm or favor from the
captive instead of the king? Like if you're watching witnessing
this? Who would you expect? Who do you think is in charge her? The
king? Or the captive? Obviously, the king? All right, if now
someone goes to the captive for help, isn't he a fool.
So likewise, the king is in complete control and his weapons
are his actions are what he has willed for this captive, and the
captive can only move as far as the chains are long. Okay? So we
seek, Oh Allah, we seek your refuge from our blindness of our
inner eye of seeking help from the creation and not from the Creator.
He says, Furthermore, keep your eyes fixed on your Creator, for
his gaze is fixed on you. Right? We have KERAMA and catch up in
writing all of our deeds, his gaze is fixed or fixed on us. So if the
king is looking at you, how could you turn your eye and your inner
our eye away from anybody else? He says, the inner eye is all that's
important. They came to him one time, and they said, I'll do QA
there. There are some bad news. He said, What is the news?
He said your son who had went off on business and trade.
He was killed and the journey and he's not coming back.
So he waited, waited, waited. And then he said hamdulillah
a couple of days later,
they said, Hey, I'm gonna cause it.
It was false news. It wasn't him who was killed. It was somebody
else who was killed. He finished his trade and he's coming back. He
waited, waited. And he said Hamdulillah. So they said, explain
to us your reactions, how could they be the same for both cases?
He said, because when you bring such make such news that would
shake the heart of a person. I had to, I waited, and I aligned my
heart with Allah subhanho wa taala. And told myself, this is
the will of Allah subhana wa Tada.
And when my heart found sukoon with that, I said, hamdulillah
nothing is more important than your heart is always aligned with
Allah. And when you bought me the good news, this was caused any
person's heart also to fly
and lose remembrance of Allah. So I checked myself and aligned my
heart with the will of Allah and said, hamdulillah So in both
cases,
there's another story of a man who, one of the early people of
this path that he would get caught making so far and dua for the
people above that. The merchants of Baghdad, and when they asked
him, Why are you doing this? He said, I've been doing this for 30
years. He said, What are you seeking forgiveness from? He said,
I'm seeking forgiveness from one utterance that I said, they said,
Well, what was that utterance? He said, Alhamdulillah he said, How
does it make
sense that you're seeking forgiveness for 30 years for
saying it. Hamdulillah he says because a man came one time to the
masjid and announced to everybody, all the homes of a certain area,
the merchants quarters have been burned by a fire, except for your
home, your home in your home. And they pointed to me that my home
wasn't burned. I said it hamdulillah then I realized I'm
thanking Allah subhanaw taala while all my brothers are
suffering, and realized this is putting myself in front of
everybody else and they begged of Allah it's not the adapt that
Allah wants. So I seek refuge from that moment I seek forgiveness for
that moment.
This is what they mean by aligning your heart with Allah first. So
amazing subtleties of these automatic. Keep yourself he says
before the one who keeps himself before you. Is not ALLAH SubhanA
wa Tada causing your heart to beat at every moment. So he is caring
for you. So care for him. Keep your heart
in love with the one who loves you. Did he invite you into
creation? Is that not enough? A sign of His love for you? Did not
he guide you to Islam? Is that not enough for his love for you?
Seek help for hid from him who can save you and take you out of
darkness. The darkness of ignorance is what is darkness is
the darkness is ignorance
and knowledge is the light.
ask Allah to cleanse you from the impurities of your souls and
redeem you from your base herself which leads you to temptation,
despair and timidity. cowardliness in you men, your earthly desires
are like foolish friends, so stay away from them.
They keep you off the righteous path and busy you from that which
is pleasing to your Lord and desirable and beneficial for you
in this life in the next. How long would you remain slaves of your
desires, temptations, greed and pride. This transitory world is
short. How long will you be? Will you be forgetful of the hereafter.
Alright, and he has amazing, amazing lectures from the book
alphabet Hello, Bernie. And they're just lectured. Not in
lecture one lecture to lecture three. Sometimes they're the
lectures of Ramadan. And he ultimately goes from topic to
topic inside of but mostly revolving around the heart
sincerity towards Allah to Allah. He said you always complain as you
would ever do, that you suffer losses. Okay. And everything that
you love, you lose.
He said the objects of your fancies are may be harmful for
you.
Good, your separation from it may be best for you. If it is wealth
that you love, then you you're eventually going to incur some
losses. Should I tell you that Allah loves you and you you
shouldn't be enraptured with him. Not turned to others. Have you not
heard that what that Allah says He who holds them dear and they him.
You have boom where you have buena. He talks a lot about the
love of Allah. I created Jin and humankind only for a bad are you
not aware that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said
when Allah loves her abs, he places afflictions upon him. But
if he puts up with and endures that Allah sets him apart for
himself, which means Allah bestows upon him certain color match and
the greatest of color match his jaw is answered, how to cut
through Jelani, you said that his drive was answered. He was sorry
on the job. Anytime he made a dua silly Hello job. He's also city or
Dima, he would weep very quickly. For the
when when Allah was mentioned, and Zoid was mentioned, and Africa was
mentioned.
There's so much more we could talk about. Lastly, let's talk about
his asceticism. When his gatherings became extremely vast,
and the kings would come, he stopped sitting in his Mejlis,
before the public gatherings and he would sit outside because in
those times, if the Sultan came, Khalifa
entered and you didn't stand up for the Sultan, it was considered
disrespect.
And he never wanted to stand up for the Sultan.
So what he would do is he would
wait in a room outside the Mejlis. Like there, would you be a door,
let's say a door back here. And he would look through after the
Sultan came in and sat down, then he would come in. Alright. So that
he does he doesn't want to disrespect the Sultan, and he
doesn't want to stand for the Psalter. As I said, his wives were
very wealthy. He lived on a very simple stipend, but his wives
would always get him gifts.
And they got him one time one of the finest robes they said the
Kings now attend. The Amir's the governor's the rich. They attend
your circles. So they bought him
A really fancy job
and he went out with that job. And then one time he came back in
he slept that night and he saw a vision in which a voice sets him
Yeah, Abdulkadir
those those jobs are permissible for you to wear in front of the
kings. But as soon as you come back, were the thought of that I
love the job you used to wear in the color.
Right. So then he would he went out, he went into his belongings,
and he dug out the job that he used to wear. When he was on the
Halawa back in the time when it was he was just alone with Allah
subhanaw taala. He said that so you can wear that for the for the
people, because if they need to see that on you, you can wear
that, but when you come back, where are the thoughts that you
used to wear when you were on Halawa? Right, so he used to
change and wear the clothes of the poor. Meanwhile, his home was
filled with servants and whatever his wives brought, because they
were rich.
He never established an official tariqa like there was no idea of
sadaqa jariya in his lifetime, but his sons established it by
gathering his of God and the aura that he would give to the students
and the disciples. And he went to war Abdulkadir Jada, and he went
to war with the false Sufia at the time, and he would say that if a
Sufi comes and
preys on water, or flies in the air, we judge him by his Shediac
not by his grommets. Okay, so he was very big on that and that none
of this none. We don't judge someone by cut our mats and
caramel. The only Kurama that's important is to come. So he waged
war on this concept. People think that full Sufis is a new thing.
Oh, the Sufis of the past were good, but the Sufis of today are
bad. There have always been bad ones. Have there always been false
muftis?
Haven't there always been muftis who give the fatawa that the
Sultan's want? Right? Haven't there always been scholars who
give you the fatwah? Whatever the the rich and the Salatin wanting
to say it's always existed, right? That's something new. Likewise,
there's always been Sofia, who went so much into a better they
went astray. And the Quran mats and the Macassar fed got so much
that fried their brains and led their brains astray. He fought
that in his time
because her agenda and the fighting of and the rectification
because when you go into a lot of a bad and you spend time alone, a
lot of amazing things are gonna happen. You're gonna have visions,
you're gonna have these things that could lead you astray.
And so alginate is Celik undercover Jelani Abu Hamza,
because all of these people came to set it straight. Things go
astray they said it straight, good deed. So it's something that's
that's very commonplace, and it's not something that's it just Sufi
of today, and yesterday and the century before were corrupt. That
has always been corrupt, right? There's always gonna corrupt in
the good, right? And so he was one of those who set them straight.
Alright folks, let's stop here we can remind ourselves of our

So
anchal Kerak didn't Abdulkadir Jelani speak against ascites. I've
never seen such a common against that show.
I know I've never seen one let's actually know that like a lot of
people like what have you guys do you actually use a blue color

use him for his to sew up to maybe their hearts would soften a little
bit I saw someone who was calling Abdul color G li yeah they said

Alright, let's see what else what other comments we got here.
All right, Bismillah, YouTube.
Dr. Shadi, what's the best English translation of email documents?
Kitab as well as the book of asceticism, it's really the
asceticism by Imam Muhammad.
So it was asking what's the best literalist translation
from an originated revelation?
What's the current change the CD Abdulkadir?
There was a lot of Korea
with a lot and the bases in Pakistan, really the basis of the
career
his strong lineage moved from Baghdad to Pakistan, like less
generation.
Caitlin says,
to regular Muslims like us if we should try to do hours of Kailua.
I wouldn't try to do you just do a little bit at a time, like 30
minutes, 40 minutes, like an hour, an hour, two hours maximum, right?
Until it becomes a norm for you. You recite some Quran you do some
thicket of Salah on the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. If
you're tired, you do something simple like that. Lola, then you
make a DUA, etc. I remember one time I was at when I was at the
Baltimore for that conference. Yeah. I was buying a ton of books.
And the guy who was selling the books was like, what are you gonna
do with all these books? Like I'm gonna go to Hollywood and read
them all. He's like, who's your teacher? Yeah. He's like, why Dr.
Shay teach you about going?
He's like roasting me to talk to you. Oh, my God. I mean, the thing
is about books is that
you don't have books so that you could read all of them at once.
It's never gonna happen. That's not what people do. You get books.
So you can have a library so that you can go to your library every
day say, Oh, I never knew I had this book. Right? I never read
this book. So you form a library. Like, yesterday, I was like, we
were just talking about the hadith of Shiva. Sure. And I just tried
to look it up. Like, it's so much easier to just go in to call the
big fat and it's right there. Yeah. So looking at it's actually
harder to look it up on Google.
Totally. It's
totally
alright, what do we got here on YouTube? Yeah, the city fried me
stuff. Few streams ago. I think I heard you say that someone you
knew got very wealthy by consciously reciting surah. That's
not the only reason he got wealthy is his mic. And by the way, that's
not the only reason he got wealthy. He got wealthy because he
was an IT guy. He worked really hard at it.
I had a roommate. He used to read certain wisdom every day to get
rich.
I said that's definitely one reason that wasn't the only
reason. The other reason is that he was an IT nerd. And they always
have work. Yes. But he also married a man married a woman.
Mainly one of the reasons was his dad or dad was really wealthy. And
he became like his as the assistant to the dad.
And then he started, you know, working but also managing his
businesses onto
They ended up having like some massive, massive amounts of gas
stations and other things that they owned and bought and worked
out.
So, is there a specific word to be recited in these last in these 10
days of good hygiene? What's that? Like I specifically would receive
in these last there's no specific bad of their hygiene except that
they couldn't do up
what
it was like
where they
were to somebody was salam alaikum
and badly while earlier Safi and Luigi may
be equal or solder was gonna be equal.
With our age group.
Where
is zoom router? Good. Can you send me a screenshot of that? Just
AirDrop it to me.
I've got it. Okay.
I was just texting and try to draw
there is cardio in
there's cardio by the way in Gambia discovery everywhere.
Have you made any tea Jan You and your
children? Yeah, yeah. I don't know much about that. That group to be
honest with you. One comes in and I mentioned that one brother.
Oh, my God. Yep. We have to Jenny in Egypt to the sea. Jenny and
Sheikh Salah His name is Michel salah.
Okay. All right. Let's see what else read to me. Should he
read so I can drink? Agua?
Why is called the known as a lot of them.
Why is the culture learning known as Eligos? Allow them?
Why is he known by that? Because he was considered you know, from
his his achievement in the field. That's what
if we've done had should we strive to do more and maybe help others
financially do theirs? That would be amazing. If you did your
products and other people can't fulfill their flouted, it would
make sense to help those people. That's an Instagram question.
Actually posted affected by that, for those that don't have before
because of
how the system is kind of messed up now that the one hedges you do
it, then you send other people and other people to do the hedge thing
and to get a lot of reward for that. Now someone may have done
sins in the meantime, then he needs to do another hedge. But
all right, who else?
Nimra says there's Gambia. Yes, there is Gambia, yes, there's
Quadri in Gambia.
Mohammed says, How's it it's Ryan?
reading that. You don't drink water when you speak for hours in
class where you're having buckled down. Yeah.
What else we got here?
No, just the update on with today's no juicy update on now
along with the juicy of teramoto is that the Saudi ministry has
issued a letter essentially saying we're getting involved. Yes, the
Ministry of hats from Saudi has essentially issued a letter saying
that public letter that
they're they're getting hands on involved. Right. So they're trying
to that at least they recognize it. Right. At least they have that
current why not just go back to the old system? I just don't man.
I don't know.
All right, let's stop here.
Hamdulillah that we had this hour or so to talk about optimal color
and Jelani
is a question from Ida. Is it valid if a country is celebrating
Eid in a different day than Saudi? And usually that's odd for for the
Hijjah because of the fact that Yamato is a physical thing that's
happening, right. But it is still valid if there's a country that
says that we only go by the local Moon sighting that's valid. Right
and there's nothing wrong with that. Of course, it feels odd. It
seems odd, but
there would it is valid but Saudis said that they also witnessed the
moon yesterday. They testify to that. So what about locally in New
Jersey brothers? That I don't know if Lavon brown saw me the moon
sighting found I don't know if I didn't hear any keep up because
once I heard that Saudi said testified that they saw the moon
then I lost like I don't consider them to be like liars about that
stuff.
Right.
All right, folks. Let's stop here. Let's take one more question. I'm
just so cool. How can
We keep the state of heart pure even though we are bombarded with
many inappropriate things is a constant nonstop remembrance
cleaning cleaning out your they could nonstop imagine you had a
drip of soap and and a stream of water nonstop on your heart
nonstop and that's why we want to be that get in right we want to
just constantly be nonstop in remembrance of Allah Tada and it's
a constant drip sometimes it's intense, but it's never off. It's
never off it should never be off there should never be
a time where we become stagnant have the remembrance of Allah even
while driving while working on the bus all that all these things at
any time we shouldn't be under our breath shouldn't be mentioned. Of
of Allah's remembrance someone else. Where will the ship be in
the UK? Come again. Where will you be in the UK? If you're
okay, you go.
Alright folks, just a Commonwealth here. Subhanak Allahu Moby Dick, a
shadow
Illa illa Anta iStockphoto Kana to hoylake. What else internal of
vehicles in LA Latina Almond huamu Saudi. What's also Bill Huck, what
was sober, sober was salam aleikum. And I just want to remind
everyone before we leave, is that
tonight is a little drama. It's also one of the 10 Nights of the
ledger. So please, don't for the sake of yourselves and our own
benefit, not forget the the value of the a bad in this period of
time and this evening and these days in general SallAllahu ala
Sayidina Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi wa salam Tasneem or Salam
