Welcome everybody to the Safeen Saudi Nothing but

00:01:05 --> 00:01:05

Facts

00:01:06 --> 00:01:07

livestream on a gorgeous

00:01:07 --> 00:01:09

day, on a day in which,

00:01:09 --> 00:01:10

it is Thursday.

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

We need to fade over, Yom.

00:01:15 --> 00:01:16

There we go. There we go.

00:01:17 --> 00:01:20

On a beautiful day, it's sunny out, and

00:01:20 --> 00:01:21

we have a lot of guests.

00:01:21 --> 00:01:24

Some guests are yet to come. They're on

00:01:24 --> 00:01:26

the way. That's Sheikh Ahmed Salim from Atlanta.

00:01:26 --> 00:01:27

He's coming. He's on the way, but today

00:01:27 --> 00:01:28

he'll join us virtually.

00:01:29 --> 00:01:31

And we have Sheikh Asadullah.

00:01:31 --> 00:01:32

He is

00:01:32 --> 00:01:33

from Seattle,

00:01:49 --> 00:01:51

alaihi wasallam. And I'm telling you,

00:01:52 --> 00:01:53

just make the intention.

00:01:53 --> 00:01:55

If you make the intention, then Allah ta'ala

00:01:56 --> 00:01:58

turn this over a little bit. If you

00:01:58 --> 00:01:59

make the intention,

00:01:59 --> 00:02:01

Allah ta'ala shows you the way.

00:02:02 --> 00:02:03

I'll give you an example. No. The other

00:02:03 --> 00:02:05

way. K.

00:02:05 --> 00:02:06

I'll give you an example

00:02:06 --> 00:02:07

of how

00:02:09 --> 00:02:10

if you make the intention

00:02:11 --> 00:02:13

and Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala,

00:02:14 --> 00:02:16

opens the ways for Muslims to come to

00:02:16 --> 00:02:17

agreements on things.

00:02:18 --> 00:02:19

A brother

00:02:20 --> 00:02:22

of the recent Aqidah wars online,

00:02:23 --> 00:02:25

he was a young guy.

00:02:25 --> 00:02:27

He was shocked. He is so upset.

00:02:29 --> 00:02:30

He lives in our community,

00:02:31 --> 00:02:34

and he's saying Quran is this all sorts

00:02:34 --> 00:02:35

of stuff about the Quran that makes no

00:02:35 --> 00:02:36

sense.

00:02:36 --> 00:02:38

So I was upset by it,

00:02:38 --> 00:02:39

but I'm like, I can't be upset by

00:02:39 --> 00:02:41

it. Just make the intention

00:02:42 --> 00:02:43

to bring hearts together.

00:02:45 --> 00:02:46

Luckily, had the conversation,

00:02:48 --> 00:02:48

and Allah

00:02:49 --> 00:02:49

opened

00:02:50 --> 00:02:51

for a way in which

00:02:52 --> 00:02:54

to to to discuss this issue and bring

00:02:54 --> 00:02:55

it together.

00:02:56 --> 00:02:57

I said to him,

00:02:57 --> 00:02:59

I'm gonna set the clock.

00:03:00 --> 00:03:02

After you answer me one question, I'm gonna

00:03:02 --> 00:03:05

set the clock. Within 60 seconds, we will

00:03:05 --> 00:03:06

be in full agreement.

00:03:08 --> 00:03:09

He said there's no way,

00:03:10 --> 00:03:12

and the people were watching too. I said,

00:03:12 --> 00:03:14

okay. My first prerequisite question,

00:03:15 --> 00:03:17

are the are our

00:03:18 --> 00:03:19

actions created?

00:03:20 --> 00:03:22

He said, yes. Of course. Allah says he

00:03:22 --> 00:03:23

created you and your actions.

00:03:24 --> 00:03:26

I'm created, and my actions are created. All

00:03:26 --> 00:03:27

of our acts are created. I said, good.

00:03:27 --> 00:03:29

That's all the prerequisites I need. Now hit

00:03:29 --> 00:03:31

the on button for the clock.

00:03:32 --> 00:03:33

I said, number 1,

00:03:33 --> 00:03:35

when you recite the Quran,

00:03:36 --> 00:03:38

that is a creation. Your recitation of the

00:03:38 --> 00:03:40

Quran is a creation. Just say agree or

00:03:40 --> 00:03:41

disagree. He said agree.

00:03:42 --> 00:03:43

Said your writing of the Quran,

00:03:44 --> 00:03:45

the writing down of the Quran

00:03:46 --> 00:03:48

with a pen, with a computer, with a

00:03:48 --> 00:03:48

whatever

00:03:49 --> 00:03:51

is created. Yes or no? Agree or disagree?

00:03:51 --> 00:03:52

I said agree.

00:03:53 --> 00:03:54

I said, what you're writing

00:03:55 --> 00:03:57

is the uncreated word of Allah.

00:03:57 --> 00:03:59

What you're reciting, the act

00:04:00 --> 00:04:02

is created. But what you're reciting is the

00:04:02 --> 00:04:03

uncreated word of Allah. Agree or disagree? You

00:04:03 --> 00:04:04

said agree?

00:04:05 --> 00:04:06

That's

00:04:08 --> 00:04:10

it. That's it. Leave off the terms

00:04:11 --> 00:04:12

that boggle your mind and look at these

00:04:12 --> 00:04:13

particulars.

00:04:13 --> 00:04:15

That's what we have when the Quran is

00:04:15 --> 00:04:16

here with us today.

00:04:16 --> 00:04:18

What is it that's with us? Either a

00:04:18 --> 00:04:19

recitation

00:04:20 --> 00:04:21

or a kitaba. Right?

00:04:22 --> 00:04:25

It's not an abstraction floating around. It's either

00:04:25 --> 00:04:27

a recitation or a writing, and we both

00:04:27 --> 00:04:28

agree that that's created.

00:04:28 --> 00:04:29

We also both agree

00:04:30 --> 00:04:31

that what you're writing

00:04:32 --> 00:04:34

and what you're reciting is the uncreated word

00:04:34 --> 00:04:35

of Allah.

00:04:36 --> 00:04:38

He said, that's it. I said, that's the

00:04:38 --> 00:04:40

issue. That's it. That's the and

00:04:41 --> 00:04:42

this back and forth, I actually

00:04:43 --> 00:04:45

went to my teachers about it.

00:04:46 --> 00:04:48

And I asked 3 of my teachers,

00:04:48 --> 00:04:50

is this back and forth

00:04:50 --> 00:04:52

Isn't this a? They said, yes. This is

00:04:52 --> 00:04:53

the.

00:04:53 --> 00:04:54

I said, okay.

00:04:55 --> 00:04:58

I'm telling you, he his face was so

00:04:59 --> 00:05:00

like, almost shocked at how

00:05:01 --> 00:05:02

that's it. That's the.

00:05:04 --> 00:05:07

Same thing in all matters. Just make the

00:05:07 --> 00:05:08

right intention.

00:05:08 --> 00:05:09

No.

00:05:10 --> 00:05:10

There's no.

00:05:11 --> 00:05:13

And I don't believe either side have. They

00:05:13 --> 00:05:16

just have opinions, and they have the the

00:05:16 --> 00:05:17

way in which they formulate their opinions

00:05:18 --> 00:05:20

and the way in which and the pre

00:05:21 --> 00:05:23

these understandings may clash. So here we are

00:05:23 --> 00:05:26

with Sheikh Ahmed Sadeem today who has a

00:05:26 --> 00:05:27

lot of experience

00:05:28 --> 00:05:29

with this same thing.

00:05:30 --> 00:05:32

And I truly and firmly believe

00:05:32 --> 00:05:35

these groups within Ahlus Sunnah, if they make

00:05:35 --> 00:05:35

the intent

00:05:36 --> 00:05:38

to please Allah and his messenger

00:05:39 --> 00:05:42

And ask yourself, is this pleasing to Allah

00:05:42 --> 00:05:44

and his messenger, this jidal amongst us?

00:05:45 --> 00:05:45

Over

00:05:50 --> 00:05:52

new things that have come upon us as

00:05:52 --> 00:05:52

fitan,

00:05:53 --> 00:05:54

and new questions.

00:05:54 --> 00:05:56

Is it pleasing to Allah and his messenger

00:05:56 --> 00:05:57

to do this?

00:05:57 --> 00:05:59

And if the answer is no, then the

00:05:59 --> 00:06:00

opposite is pleasing.

00:06:01 --> 00:06:02

It's pleasing to Allah and his messenger to

00:06:02 --> 00:06:04

have the intent to bring the hearts of

00:06:04 --> 00:06:05

the ummah together.

00:06:06 --> 00:06:08

And the way to do that, I'm telling

00:06:08 --> 00:06:10

you, is not to run away from the,

00:06:11 --> 00:06:12

but it's first to have the right

00:06:13 --> 00:06:15

the the right attitude,

00:06:16 --> 00:06:17

the right intention,

00:06:19 --> 00:06:20

and leave off

00:06:20 --> 00:06:22

what is actually unnecessary.

00:06:24 --> 00:06:24

K.

00:06:25 --> 00:06:26

Okay. That's good. Let them all say, oh,

00:06:26 --> 00:06:27

the Sufi mystic.

00:06:28 --> 00:06:28

K.

00:06:30 --> 00:06:32

Alright. Alright. Let's bring Sheikh Ahmed Saneem.

00:06:33 --> 00:06:33

He has

00:06:34 --> 00:06:35

an extremely,

00:06:35 --> 00:06:36

extremely, extremely

00:06:37 --> 00:06:38

rich

00:06:39 --> 00:06:39

background,

00:06:40 --> 00:06:42

having Shafi'i teachers

00:06:45 --> 00:06:46

in Saudi Arabia.

00:06:47 --> 00:06:50

And he came he comes from Al Asa.

00:06:50 --> 00:06:51

And the first thing that he can create

00:06:52 --> 00:06:53

correct for us, is it Al Hasa or

00:06:53 --> 00:06:54

Al Asa?

00:06:55 --> 00:06:56

Both. It's both. Okay.

00:06:58 --> 00:07:00

Okay. Yeah. Because in in in Amia, they

00:07:00 --> 00:07:03

call it Hasa. Hasa. It's like it's a

00:07:03 --> 00:07:04

al hasa or hasa. You know, they they

00:07:04 --> 00:07:06

did they they, you know, do the Iqmal

00:07:06 --> 00:07:08

of the hamza. And it's writing

00:07:08 --> 00:07:11

it's Al Hasa. It's Al Hasa. Yes. Yeah.

00:07:11 --> 00:07:13

Good. And it's actually that whole multiple is

00:07:13 --> 00:07:13

called hufuf.

00:07:14 --> 00:07:16

It's called what? Hufuf. That whole

00:07:17 --> 00:07:19

that whole region is called hufuf. This region

00:07:19 --> 00:07:22

of Saudi Arabia, the tribes are upon one

00:07:22 --> 00:07:25

of the 4 madhhabs there. Oh, yeah. This

00:07:25 --> 00:07:27

is amazing to see. And they teach that.

00:07:27 --> 00:07:29

And I've always wondered

00:07:29 --> 00:07:31

why has not Saudi shut this down? You

00:07:31 --> 00:07:33

tell me. Tell us the answer. Those tribes

00:07:33 --> 00:07:35

are pretty powerful. Right? Yeah. So you you

00:07:35 --> 00:07:37

can't annex an entire

00:07:37 --> 00:07:40

the the biggest date production comes from Assa.

00:07:40 --> 00:07:43

Amazing. So I renew in Assaoui, there's there's

00:07:43 --> 00:07:44

a date called,

00:07:44 --> 00:07:47

and that particular date, the one that comes

00:07:47 --> 00:07:47

from,

00:07:48 --> 00:07:50

is one of the the best dates that

00:07:50 --> 00:07:52

you can have. So What's it called again?

00:07:53 --> 00:07:54

Khlas. Not.

00:07:56 --> 00:07:56

Khlas.

00:07:56 --> 00:07:59

So where does Sukhuri come from?

00:07:59 --> 00:08:00

Kasim.

00:08:01 --> 00:08:03

Kasim. Kasim. And and Khajj is the the

00:08:03 --> 00:08:05

the miskeen. It gets both. It gets Klas

00:08:05 --> 00:08:06

and

00:08:06 --> 00:08:08

sukari, and this is, like, in between. So

00:08:08 --> 00:08:09

they're like, you know, they it can, you

00:08:09 --> 00:08:11

know, it can have all. But the highest

00:08:11 --> 00:08:13

quality of sukari is from Kasim,

00:08:13 --> 00:08:15

and the highest quality of class is from,

00:08:16 --> 00:08:19

from Hassan. Is Sukkari considered a cheap date

00:08:19 --> 00:08:21

or a precious date?

00:08:22 --> 00:08:24

Like, if you you know, sometimes, this is

00:08:24 --> 00:08:27

we think Ajwai is, like, the top. Yeah.

00:08:27 --> 00:08:29

Like, sukari, one

00:08:29 --> 00:08:32

box that would have probably 2.5 kilos of

00:08:32 --> 00:08:35

dates Yeah. Can go sometimes for 8 to

00:08:35 --> 00:08:37

800 to 1,000 rims. So,

00:08:38 --> 00:08:40

is the best, like, to have for breakfast?

00:08:40 --> 00:08:42

For breakfast and the so the sunnah. Yeah.

00:08:42 --> 00:08:43

Sunnah of and

00:08:43 --> 00:08:45

stuff like that, and that's why the valley

00:08:45 --> 00:08:47

was there. Right? And within Ajwa too, you

00:08:47 --> 00:08:50

have, like, that, they call it. Right? I

00:08:50 --> 00:08:51

don't know if you know the Ajwa

00:08:51 --> 00:08:53

which is the date that has been.

00:08:55 --> 00:08:56

Oh, okay. I thought you're about to say.

00:09:01 --> 00:09:02

Okay. So

00:09:02 --> 00:09:05

I always felt that is my favorite. No

00:09:05 --> 00:09:06

doubt about it. It is the favorite. Yeah.

00:09:06 --> 00:09:08

And I I think I'll I'll see if

00:09:08 --> 00:09:09

I'm coming traveling tomorrow.

00:09:10 --> 00:09:11

I'm gonna see if I have some, special

00:09:11 --> 00:09:14

sukuri that flies in for me every now

00:09:14 --> 00:09:15

and then. I'll see if I have some

00:09:15 --> 00:09:16

left, and I'll try to bring that over

00:09:16 --> 00:09:17

in short. Wonderful. Wonderful.

00:09:18 --> 00:09:20

Now let's talk about your time in Saudi

00:09:20 --> 00:09:24

Arabia has caused you to really live with

00:09:24 --> 00:09:26

tensions between opinions.

00:09:26 --> 00:09:29

Yeah. Because, like and and again, those who

00:09:29 --> 00:09:32

know me and and and I've always been

00:09:32 --> 00:09:33

like, I grew up on

00:09:34 --> 00:09:36

a a very salafi upbringing. Right? All of

00:09:36 --> 00:09:37

my teachers used to, and I grew up

00:09:37 --> 00:09:39

on that. Right? And I I still have

00:09:39 --> 00:09:41

respect for those. Like, as a matter of

00:09:41 --> 00:09:42

fact, like, I just want people to know

00:09:42 --> 00:09:44

that, like, in one of the the that

00:09:44 --> 00:09:46

I was supposed to be giving in Atlanta.

00:09:47 --> 00:09:48

Right? One of my teachers who I revered

00:09:49 --> 00:09:50

and I grew up listening to him and

00:09:50 --> 00:09:53

studying from him. And they said, oh, this

00:09:53 --> 00:09:55

sheikh is going to be visiting, and is

00:09:55 --> 00:09:56

it okay if you give your hootba away?

00:09:56 --> 00:09:58

And I'm like, are you crazy? He's my

00:09:58 --> 00:10:00

teacher. So that adab is what we have

00:10:00 --> 00:10:02

learned that, you know, you I may disagree

00:10:02 --> 00:10:04

with him on 10 topics. Mhmm. But when

00:10:04 --> 00:10:06

it comes to his maqam, the

00:10:06 --> 00:10:08

he taught me. Right?

00:10:08 --> 00:10:10

That is the other that we must show,

00:10:10 --> 00:10:12

right, to the people. So, yeah, I grew

00:10:12 --> 00:10:13

up on that. And then one day, I

00:10:13 --> 00:10:15

came across this beautiful teacher of mine, Sheikh

00:10:15 --> 00:10:16

Abdulilah.

00:10:16 --> 00:10:18

And, you know, we went to him with

00:10:18 --> 00:10:19

this argument. We we went to him with

00:10:19 --> 00:10:21

this arrogance that, you know, we're gonna teach

00:10:21 --> 00:10:22

him FIP.

00:10:23 --> 00:10:25

And the sheikh will, like, subhanAllah, work beautiful

00:10:25 --> 00:10:27

magic. He's like it's like he's like, Masha'Allah,

00:10:27 --> 00:10:30

you're from Canada, you're a very intellectual person.

00:10:30 --> 00:10:32

He stroked my ego in a manner that

00:10:32 --> 00:10:34

I couldn't imagine. And then he was like,

00:10:34 --> 00:10:37

look, let's give us 3 months. You come

00:10:37 --> 00:10:38

and study with me for 3 months.

00:10:39 --> 00:10:41

And at the end of it, I if

00:10:41 --> 00:10:43

your arguments are stronger, I will follow you.

00:10:44 --> 00:10:46

Subhanallah. And if my arguments are stronger, then,

00:10:46 --> 00:10:49

you know, then you'll have no choice to

00:10:49 --> 00:10:51

but to decide. SubhanAllah. And, I think, within

00:10:51 --> 00:10:53

a month and a half, my heart started

00:10:53 --> 00:10:56

changing because I saw an entire world

00:10:56 --> 00:10:58

of understanding fiqh, understanding

00:11:00 --> 00:11:00

which

00:11:01 --> 00:11:02

was firstly,

00:11:02 --> 00:11:03

you know, very,

00:11:04 --> 00:11:06

limited to text, but now we're looking at

00:11:06 --> 00:11:08

nuances and we're looking at different okay. You

00:11:08 --> 00:11:10

know, I had an kalam, yaktamal,

00:11:11 --> 00:11:14

Ihtamalat. Yeah. Mhmm. You know, Laysa Muktamal Sheikh.

00:11:14 --> 00:11:15

And Yep. If it's

00:11:18 --> 00:11:20

then okay. Hassan, what like, so all of

00:11:20 --> 00:11:21

the I'm like, wow.

00:11:21 --> 00:11:24

This is something new. And subhanallah from there,

00:11:24 --> 00:11:24

I I I just,

00:11:26 --> 00:11:26

to Shabbat.

00:11:27 --> 00:11:28

Masha'Allah. And then

00:11:29 --> 00:11:30

Oh,

00:11:30 --> 00:11:32

no. And then I also had long experience

00:11:32 --> 00:11:34

with the masha'af in India. That's a part

00:11:34 --> 00:11:35

that we never talk about. But,

00:11:36 --> 00:11:38

so my my degree is from Kerala.

00:11:39 --> 00:11:42

From one of the, Jamiyah, Arabia, and Nuriya,

00:11:42 --> 00:11:44

which is a very big, Sunni madrassa.

00:11:44 --> 00:11:45

They follow

00:11:47 --> 00:11:48

the and stuff like that. That shayd came

00:11:48 --> 00:11:50

here. What's his name, the main shaykh?

00:11:51 --> 00:11:53

Depends. There's, like, 3 of them. So with

00:11:53 --> 00:11:55

madrassa, there I don't know. I don't think

00:11:55 --> 00:11:56

it's the or

00:11:56 --> 00:11:58

Sheikh Badri. I don't think Okay. One of

00:11:58 --> 00:12:00

them who's always with Habib Omar in India,

00:12:00 --> 00:12:02

he came here. He must have come. Yeah.

00:12:02 --> 00:12:04

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I can't remember. So

00:12:04 --> 00:12:07

those so I I graduated from those and

00:12:07 --> 00:12:08

stuff like that. So,

00:12:09 --> 00:12:10

it is it is what it is. That's

00:12:10 --> 00:12:12

wonderful. And and I think I think having

00:12:12 --> 00:12:13

seen both sides,

00:12:14 --> 00:12:15

I came to this realization

00:12:16 --> 00:12:17

that many times,

00:12:22 --> 00:12:25

So we read, and we're like, oh, this

00:12:25 --> 00:12:26

is mentioned in that,

00:12:27 --> 00:12:29

the Sufis are like that, or this is

00:12:29 --> 00:12:32

mentioned in that Salafis are like that. But

00:12:32 --> 00:12:34

I was that unique person that actually got

00:12:34 --> 00:12:36

to sit with some of the, and I

00:12:36 --> 00:12:37

was like, wait a minute. They don't believe

00:12:37 --> 00:12:40

in that. It's just a few of them

00:12:40 --> 00:12:43

that become famous, but the the of them,

00:12:43 --> 00:12:44

they're very.

00:12:44 --> 00:12:46

It's a problem. Like, they are a theory

00:12:46 --> 00:12:47

creed. Like, you know, my Sheikh Sheikh Muhammad

00:12:47 --> 00:12:49

Al Khulayr, may Allah take him out of

00:12:49 --> 00:12:51

the prison. He's been in prison. Today, in

00:12:51 --> 00:12:54

every phone app, the the the gharib al

00:12:54 --> 00:12:56

Quran, if you go into the the the

00:12:56 --> 00:12:58

phone apps and it says the word meanings

00:12:58 --> 00:13:00

of the Quran, it actually comes he is

00:13:00 --> 00:13:02

the one who wrote that. Muhammad Al Khudayri.

00:13:02 --> 00:13:04

He is the writer of that to make

00:13:04 --> 00:13:07

people understand Quran in in in basic understanding.

00:13:07 --> 00:13:08

When I traveled with him,

00:13:09 --> 00:13:11

wallahi, I was

00:13:11 --> 00:13:13

ashamed to call myself

00:13:13 --> 00:13:14

in front of his

00:13:16 --> 00:13:18

Right? Like, somebody who gets up at 3

00:13:18 --> 00:13:20

o'clock at night after traveling for 3 hours

00:13:20 --> 00:13:22

and arriving at 12 o'clock, and then waking

00:13:22 --> 00:13:24

me up and this is me,

00:13:25 --> 00:13:27

sleeping in his bed, enjoying his life. I'm

00:13:27 --> 00:13:30

like, the sheikh is like, Ahmed Ahmed Salam.

00:13:30 --> 00:13:32

Right? And the the those days, I'm like,

00:13:32 --> 00:13:33

there's no way. And then we sit in

00:13:33 --> 00:13:35

the car and I'm like, I'm gonna ask

00:13:35 --> 00:13:37

them, and then the entire 2 hours, he

00:13:37 --> 00:13:39

didn't speak to me. He was doing his

00:13:39 --> 00:13:41

adkar, his litanings. He's a Sarafisheikh.

00:13:41 --> 00:13:43

It's upon Like, there's no way you can

00:13:43 --> 00:13:45

be connected to that sunnah. Yes. We there

00:13:45 --> 00:13:46

are

00:13:46 --> 00:13:49

variances as we all have variances on this

00:13:49 --> 00:13:51

side, there's also variances on that side. And

00:13:51 --> 00:13:53

I think that is something we must we

00:13:53 --> 00:13:55

must appreciate and understand that not all of

00:13:55 --> 00:13:57

them can be stroked with one brush. Right?

00:13:57 --> 00:14:00

And I got that blessing to be able

00:14:00 --> 00:14:02

to see the both sides, the balanced versions

00:14:02 --> 00:14:03

of both sides.

00:14:03 --> 00:14:06

And I'm telling you the, it all goes

00:14:06 --> 00:14:07

back to to the intent.

00:14:07 --> 00:14:08

Are you intending

00:14:09 --> 00:14:12

to enjoy there's a in hating somebody.

00:14:14 --> 00:14:15

It's true. There's

00:14:15 --> 00:14:17

a in our group hates that group.

00:14:18 --> 00:14:20

Yeah. That is a terrible. That is mamal

00:14:20 --> 00:14:21

Hadad said.

00:14:23 --> 00:14:26

So The of backbiting, of destroying, of taking

00:14:26 --> 00:14:29

down. And in in we're we're revert in

00:14:29 --> 00:14:32

reverse, what we're doing is elevating ourselves. SubhanAllah.

00:14:32 --> 00:14:35

Abu Hanifa's Hussein used to he Abu Hanifa

00:14:35 --> 00:14:37

saw his son argue with someone.

00:14:37 --> 00:14:40

So he rebuked him. So he says,

00:14:41 --> 00:14:43

yeah. I think it's other Abu Hanifa or

00:14:43 --> 00:14:44

Ahmed. You know, don't quote me on that.

00:14:44 --> 00:14:47

It's one of the 2. So he said,

00:14:48 --> 00:14:49

oh my dad, I've always seen you

00:14:50 --> 00:14:52

argue with other people and and and argue

00:14:52 --> 00:14:53

in a good manner.

00:14:55 --> 00:14:57

Right? Yeah. On on concept.

00:14:58 --> 00:15:00

So he said, yes. The difference is, my

00:15:00 --> 00:15:02

son, in your intention, I can see that

00:15:02 --> 00:15:04

you want to defeat him. SubhanAllah. SubhanAllah. In

00:15:04 --> 00:15:07

my intention, when I would argue, my intention

00:15:07 --> 00:15:09

was that I shouldn't move so that I

00:15:09 --> 00:15:12

don't want to confuse my opponent and hopefully

00:15:12 --> 00:15:16

he wins. Yeah. Yeah. And that's what that's

00:15:16 --> 00:15:18

where a lot of these brothers said the

00:15:18 --> 00:15:18

debate

00:15:19 --> 00:15:20

seemed hard in my heart, so I left

00:15:20 --> 00:15:21

it. Right?

00:15:22 --> 00:15:24

But the same brothers, when it's like a

00:15:24 --> 00:15:26

local community member with

00:15:27 --> 00:15:29

good intention back and forth. They always engage

00:15:29 --> 00:15:31

in this. Oh, no. Good intention back and

00:15:31 --> 00:15:33

forth. Their heart you have to be able

00:15:33 --> 00:15:35

to have and as sheikh Mohammed Idi Akhoubhi

00:15:35 --> 00:15:36

used to say, an antenna.

00:15:37 --> 00:15:39

Antennas on the TV. You need to have

00:15:39 --> 00:15:41

an antenna of where is my heart moving.

00:15:42 --> 00:15:43

Subhanahu. And if it ever

00:15:44 --> 00:15:46

moves to to to kibber

00:15:47 --> 00:15:49

or separation, then you know Imblis has taken

00:15:49 --> 00:15:52

over the event. Subhanahu. The discussion. But if

00:15:52 --> 00:15:54

it if it moves towards

00:15:55 --> 00:15:56

a strong dua

00:15:57 --> 00:15:58

to bring our hearts together,

00:15:59 --> 00:16:02

not naively by burying the issue. This is

00:16:02 --> 00:16:02

just naivete,

00:16:03 --> 00:16:04

but by bringing out the truth

00:16:05 --> 00:16:07

Yeah. And being open to the yeah. And

00:16:07 --> 00:16:09

being open to listen to the Yeah. Being

00:16:09 --> 00:16:11

open to the fact of what is in

00:16:11 --> 00:16:13

our religion, what is Khalafi.

00:16:13 --> 00:16:14

Right? Yeah.

00:16:15 --> 00:16:17

It's gonna you're gonna have success

00:16:17 --> 00:16:19

9 times out of 10. Yeah. And that's

00:16:19 --> 00:16:21

what that's what our point is here. Our

00:16:21 --> 00:16:22

point is here to

00:16:23 --> 00:16:25

there are a lot of essential students. As

00:16:25 --> 00:16:26

you know, we're starting our our

00:16:27 --> 00:16:29

our our academic year online. Some of the

00:16:29 --> 00:16:32

brothers and when essential starts, we're starting tonight

00:16:32 --> 00:16:33

at 7 o'clock.

00:16:35 --> 00:16:35

And

00:16:36 --> 00:16:37

when we do this,

00:16:38 --> 00:16:39

you have to have the intention

00:16:40 --> 00:16:43

of purifying your intent towards the.

00:16:45 --> 00:16:45

Mhmm.

00:16:46 --> 00:16:48

As long as it's within the parameters of

00:16:48 --> 00:16:49

of

00:16:50 --> 00:16:50

of the

00:16:51 --> 00:16:52

sunnah.

00:16:52 --> 00:16:54

Ithi Malat. Ithi Malat.

00:16:55 --> 00:16:58

Exactly. There's Ithi Malat in the Vani evidences.

00:16:59 --> 00:17:00

Yes. And you have to understand that. Right?

00:17:00 --> 00:17:02

So now if you don't know what those

00:17:02 --> 00:17:04

are, then we'll just say have a clean

00:17:04 --> 00:17:06

heart to everyone until you learn. Right?

00:17:07 --> 00:17:08

Oh. And have a clean and that's the

00:17:08 --> 00:17:10

best example. And and has,

00:17:13 --> 00:17:15

he said that the sun the dua, which

00:17:15 --> 00:17:16

is a sunnah.

00:17:17 --> 00:17:17

Allahumma.

00:17:23 --> 00:17:24

Oh, Allah, remove

00:17:24 --> 00:17:26

the anger of my heart

00:17:26 --> 00:17:27

and protect

00:17:28 --> 00:17:31

me from the tribulations that lead people astray.

00:17:32 --> 00:17:34

If you say it 7 times a day,

00:17:34 --> 00:17:37

he said, very slowly, the the

00:17:39 --> 00:17:41

is the sharpness of your heart. Some people

00:17:41 --> 00:17:43

The edginess. The edginess of your heart. The

00:17:43 --> 00:17:45

porcupine aspect of your personality

00:17:46 --> 00:17:47

will slowly

00:17:48 --> 00:17:50

alright. Some people's feet are like they destroy

00:17:50 --> 00:17:52

any sheet that they sleep in. Right? Their

00:17:52 --> 00:17:54

feet are so cut up.

00:17:54 --> 00:17:55

They work hard, whatever.

00:17:56 --> 00:17:58

But you can soften that with these machines.

00:17:59 --> 00:18:02

Remove all the edges off of it. Then

00:18:02 --> 00:18:04

you have a smooth surface.

00:18:04 --> 00:18:07

Like, sanding a table down, you can sand

00:18:07 --> 00:18:09

your heart down and remove that edginess.

00:18:09 --> 00:18:11

Alright. Let's now turn

00:18:11 --> 00:18:14

in our first segment now. That's our introduction

00:18:14 --> 00:18:15

on you on the importance

00:18:16 --> 00:18:18

of purifying our heart towards others.

00:18:19 --> 00:18:21

And if you're gonna love if you're one

00:18:21 --> 00:18:22

of those who loves

00:18:22 --> 00:18:23

as the month of the prophet,

00:18:25 --> 00:18:27

this is greater than anything else.

00:18:27 --> 00:18:28

Just to to

00:18:29 --> 00:18:30

have a pure

00:18:30 --> 00:18:32

and a pure heart towards every Muslim.

00:18:34 --> 00:18:35

And by the way, it may not be

00:18:35 --> 00:18:37

reciprocated. Here's the key.

00:18:38 --> 00:18:40

You may say, okay. I did it, but

00:18:40 --> 00:18:42

he didn't reciprocate. We have then.

00:18:43 --> 00:18:45

We have. Allah created the

00:18:46 --> 00:18:47

and they cursed him back.

00:18:48 --> 00:18:50

The messenger is the greatest of all in

00:18:50 --> 00:18:50

his towards

00:18:51 --> 00:18:52

the people

00:18:52 --> 00:18:55

and the people. Until today, he is attacked

00:18:55 --> 00:18:58

by people. There's no human being more attacked

00:18:58 --> 00:18:59

on the earth than the messenger

00:19:00 --> 00:19:00

is in.

00:19:01 --> 00:19:03

So we have to have with with with

00:19:03 --> 00:19:04

when people don't reciprocate

00:19:05 --> 00:19:06

that. They're gonna say, oh, no. We were

00:19:07 --> 00:19:07

you're all innovative.

00:19:08 --> 00:19:10

No problem. Yeah. Used

00:19:13 --> 00:19:16

to say, Mhmm. That the fact that you

00:19:16 --> 00:19:19

that the people walked away from this message.

00:19:19 --> 00:19:21

The word is like an imager here. Right?

00:19:21 --> 00:19:23

That they were listening to him, they turned

00:19:23 --> 00:19:26

around, and Rasulullah is being hurt because they

00:19:26 --> 00:19:28

walked away, and he's looking at the footsteps

00:19:28 --> 00:19:30

of these people. And he's saying, why would

00:19:30 --> 00:19:32

you walk away from this? Subhanallah.

00:19:32 --> 00:19:34

How would you walk away from this? So

00:19:34 --> 00:19:35

it may not be

00:19:35 --> 00:19:37

Yeah. People some people may not take that

00:19:37 --> 00:19:38

love.

00:19:38 --> 00:19:40

Again, it's something That's it. You have to

00:19:40 --> 00:19:41

just have something with it. I think let's

00:19:41 --> 00:19:44

I think to to to introduce this topic,

00:19:44 --> 00:19:46

I think the ayah that I think will

00:19:46 --> 00:19:48

we can begin with is where Allah subhanahu

00:19:48 --> 00:19:48

wa ta'ala says,

00:19:58 --> 00:19:59

Right? And and and this ayah that, you

00:19:59 --> 00:20:01

know, you may believe in Allah and his

00:20:01 --> 00:20:03

messenger and that you may venerate him and

00:20:03 --> 00:20:05

you may honor him do

00:20:05 --> 00:20:06

of him. But

00:20:07 --> 00:20:09

and you sanctify Allah

00:20:10 --> 00:20:11

in the morning and

00:20:11 --> 00:20:12

towards the end of the night.

00:20:13 --> 00:20:15

This is really interesting because if you read

00:20:15 --> 00:20:16

the tafsir books,

00:20:19 --> 00:20:20

there is between

00:20:21 --> 00:20:22

them. This who, this

00:20:23 --> 00:20:24

is it going to,

00:20:25 --> 00:20:27

is it going to Allah or

00:20:27 --> 00:20:29

is it going to the messenger?

00:20:29 --> 00:20:32

Right? And and from here, it's the primary.

00:20:32 --> 00:20:33

Like, because,

00:20:33 --> 00:20:34

for example, in his,

00:20:35 --> 00:20:35

even

00:20:36 --> 00:20:39

he mentions about about this particular topic. He

00:20:39 --> 00:20:39

says,

00:20:45 --> 00:20:47

Mhmm. Right? So we believe in him. So

00:20:47 --> 00:20:48

this is a direct command

00:20:48 --> 00:20:50

that we have to honor him. And we

00:20:50 --> 00:20:52

like, you can't say and this is a

00:20:52 --> 00:20:53

qual of the

00:20:53 --> 00:20:56

the first 3 generations or 4 generations to

00:20:56 --> 00:20:58

do tafsir of the Quran in this manner.

00:20:58 --> 00:21:00

So for us to say that there is

00:21:00 --> 00:21:01

no dariel for this

00:21:01 --> 00:21:03

honoring is is is is a bit naive.

00:21:03 --> 00:21:05

Right? Or more simplistic. Right? You can say

00:21:05 --> 00:21:08

that where are we getting that. Right? Respecting

00:21:08 --> 00:21:11

him, honoring him, being happy for this month,

00:21:11 --> 00:21:11

Hajid.

00:21:13 --> 00:21:15

Why can't you not show that respect? And

00:21:15 --> 00:21:16

that's the that's the beginning of now your

00:21:16 --> 00:21:19

presentation on this. This.

00:21:21 --> 00:21:23

Yeah. Explain what that means in English for

00:21:23 --> 00:21:26

our audience here. So to us so

00:21:27 --> 00:21:29

to basically is this feeling that you like,

00:21:29 --> 00:21:31

basically, in the meanings here to

00:21:32 --> 00:21:35

that you venerate him, you honor him, you

00:21:35 --> 00:21:39

support him, you become him. Every single possible

00:21:39 --> 00:21:41

way that he needs help, you become that

00:21:41 --> 00:21:43

help that he needs. Right? And then in

00:21:43 --> 00:21:45

the help, don't disrespect

00:21:45 --> 00:21:46

him. Keep his

00:21:47 --> 00:21:47

keep his

00:21:48 --> 00:21:49

keep his honor. He has a.

00:21:50 --> 00:21:52

He's not like us. That that

00:21:52 --> 00:21:55

we keep it while the kept it during

00:21:55 --> 00:21:56

his life. Right? Imam

00:21:57 --> 00:22:00

Malik, he mentions that, you know, he saw

00:22:00 --> 00:22:01

some people and they were laughing. So he

00:22:01 --> 00:22:03

said we've found people

00:22:03 --> 00:22:05

when they would hear the name of prophet

00:22:05 --> 00:22:07

sallallahu alaihi wasallam,

00:22:07 --> 00:22:10

they Yes, sir. Would they would face his

00:22:10 --> 00:22:10

Munkadr,

00:22:11 --> 00:22:12

his face would turn pale.

00:22:13 --> 00:22:16

Right? His just because Rasulullah is mentioned in

00:22:16 --> 00:22:16

his message.

00:22:17 --> 00:22:19

This is tawpil. This is the highest level

00:22:19 --> 00:22:21

of tawpil that they had. Right? They could

00:22:21 --> 00:22:24

not take even even Imam Malik famous story.

00:22:24 --> 00:22:26

Right? Somebody came to him and said,

00:22:27 --> 00:22:28

teach me hadith.

00:22:28 --> 00:22:29

So Imam Malik said,

00:22:32 --> 00:22:34

Who is the man's asking me for this

00:22:34 --> 00:22:35

hadith in the tariq?

00:22:36 --> 00:22:39

Wow. Take him and whip him 20 times.

00:22:40 --> 00:22:41

So they said to him,

00:22:41 --> 00:22:44

hada Qadi. This is the Qadi of Madinah

00:22:44 --> 00:22:46

who's asking you for this. So he said,

00:22:46 --> 00:22:46

al Qadi.

00:22:49 --> 00:22:49

Right? Hajeem.

00:22:50 --> 00:22:52

Then then Imam Malik brought him home and

00:22:52 --> 00:22:55

then taught him 20 hadith for every Jalda.

00:22:55 --> 00:22:57

Wow. So you know how he said? He

00:22:57 --> 00:22:57

said

00:22:59 --> 00:23:01

I wish that he had, you know you

00:23:01 --> 00:23:03

know, went to me a 100 times Yeah.

00:23:03 --> 00:23:05

So that I would have 100 hadith to

00:23:05 --> 00:23:06

talk about the world that

00:23:06 --> 00:23:09

I took 100 narrations from Imam Malik. Right?

00:23:09 --> 00:23:10

So this

00:23:11 --> 00:23:13

is part of our deen. Yeah. Now that

00:23:13 --> 00:23:15

was the of the Sahaba and Salaf. Today

00:23:15 --> 00:23:19

that has formulated into other ways, other forms

00:23:19 --> 00:23:21

in which there is no

00:23:22 --> 00:23:24

there's no issue in doing that though. Yeah.

00:23:24 --> 00:23:27

There's no issue in honoring him in that

00:23:27 --> 00:23:29

manner and to respecting him respect him in

00:23:29 --> 00:23:30

that manner. There's no issue in that. We

00:23:30 --> 00:23:33

don't have any issues with that. And the

00:23:33 --> 00:23:35

second part is, I think, that

00:23:35 --> 00:23:37

this element that, oh, this type of the

00:23:37 --> 00:23:39

appeal in terms of doing,

00:23:40 --> 00:23:41

an event,

00:23:41 --> 00:23:43

where is the delete for that? And I

00:23:43 --> 00:23:45

actually proud. I said, nobody is going to

00:23:45 --> 00:23:47

accept any delete of the this the

00:23:48 --> 00:23:48

the

00:23:49 --> 00:23:50

I have to bring a daleel from the

00:23:50 --> 00:23:53

first three generations. Otherwise, they're gonna be like,

00:23:53 --> 00:23:55

there's no daleel. Right? And the daleel is

00:23:55 --> 00:23:56

Ibn Abbas radiAllahu an.

00:23:57 --> 00:23:58

Right? When he was in in in in

00:23:58 --> 00:24:01

Iraq or Kufa Iraq or Kufa or that

00:24:01 --> 00:24:02

that area, Ibn Abbas,

00:24:03 --> 00:24:05

what he did was on the day of

00:24:05 --> 00:24:05

Arafah,

00:24:06 --> 00:24:08

he gathered the entire city.

00:24:13 --> 00:24:14

What year was this?

00:24:14 --> 00:24:17

After? This was after Rasulullah says. Yeah. This

00:24:17 --> 00:24:20

is after Rasulullah salaam's death. So he is

00:24:20 --> 00:24:22

now in Basra or Kufat, so he's there.

00:24:22 --> 00:24:24

And ibn Abbas, he gets up on the

00:24:24 --> 00:24:25

day of Arafa,

00:24:26 --> 00:24:27

the same day it coincides. People are doing

00:24:27 --> 00:24:28

their mashal.

00:24:29 --> 00:24:31

He is gathering the community and doing a

00:24:32 --> 00:24:34

and then doing a communal dua. Nobody said

00:24:34 --> 00:24:37

anything about that. And he did it consistently

00:24:37 --> 00:24:39

for as long as he lived. So So

00:24:39 --> 00:24:40

you may say, oh, you know what? This

00:24:40 --> 00:24:42

is something once a year, and we have.

00:24:43 --> 00:24:44

Then you have.

00:24:46 --> 00:24:49

Ibn Mas'ud, he legislated a dars on every

00:24:49 --> 00:24:49

Thursday

00:24:50 --> 00:24:51

after Maghrib.

00:24:52 --> 00:24:52

Every Thursday,

00:24:54 --> 00:24:56

And the beautiful and he he stuck to

00:24:56 --> 00:24:57

that. The beauty is he is the same

00:24:57 --> 00:25:00

Ra'i who narrated the hadith to us about

00:25:00 --> 00:25:02

Rasulullah will not give us give us the

00:25:02 --> 00:25:03

rules frequently.

00:25:04 --> 00:25:05

Not frequently.

00:25:05 --> 00:25:07

So what he forgot that, you know, someone

00:25:07 --> 00:25:09

who's narrating you the hadith that Rasulullah would

00:25:09 --> 00:25:12

occasionally give us a dars and now he

00:25:12 --> 00:25:13

is creating a consistent dars.

00:25:14 --> 00:25:16

So clearly there's something that is being missed

00:25:16 --> 00:25:19

in the understanding when we become, like that.

00:25:19 --> 00:25:21

And again, that's our side of the argument.

00:25:21 --> 00:25:23

We're not here to to to put down

00:25:23 --> 00:25:25

anyone. We're not here to say, you know,

00:25:25 --> 00:25:27

you're again, this is what we believe to

00:25:27 --> 00:25:29

be true. Yeah. Right? And in that manner,

00:25:29 --> 00:25:30

if any type of

00:25:30 --> 00:25:33

of of comes, if any type of way

00:25:33 --> 00:25:35

that we can show respect and honor to

00:25:35 --> 00:25:36

the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam for example,

00:25:36 --> 00:25:38

the children can have the different names. I

00:25:38 --> 00:25:40

saw this beautiful activity and I intend and

00:25:40 --> 00:25:42

hopefully, if we get some time, we'll do

00:25:42 --> 00:25:44

it in this weekend. Was was this activity

00:25:44 --> 00:25:46

where, you know, you asked the audience to

00:25:46 --> 00:25:47

take the name of Ali Bhattasa and think

00:25:47 --> 00:25:48

of a Sifa of Prophet Sallallahu Sallam from

00:25:48 --> 00:25:50

Alif all the way to the end. And

00:25:50 --> 00:25:52

everybody gets engaged. Right? So give me something

00:25:52 --> 00:25:53

about Jean, Jawad. Rasulullah

00:25:54 --> 00:25:55

was Jawad.

00:26:00 --> 00:26:00

He was Jameel.

00:26:01 --> 00:26:03

Talk talk about the Sifa. Now did any

00:26:03 --> 00:26:06

of the Sahabas did that? No. Any of

00:26:06 --> 00:26:08

the No. But this is something from

00:26:09 --> 00:26:11

from the the chapter or from the element

00:26:11 --> 00:26:14

or from the the category of us honoring,

00:26:14 --> 00:26:15

which is a direct command from Allah

00:26:16 --> 00:26:16

to us.

00:26:17 --> 00:26:19

So is there a concept there that there's?

00:26:21 --> 00:26:24

Like what? There there are general commands.

00:26:25 --> 00:26:28

Like, for example, what is generosity? Do we

00:26:28 --> 00:26:28

do we not

00:26:34 --> 00:26:35

Right? So I have to be nice to

00:26:35 --> 00:26:37

I have to be generous to my guests,

00:26:37 --> 00:26:39

but what does generosity mean exactly? It's is

00:26:39 --> 00:26:41

that not what we consider?

00:26:41 --> 00:26:43

Umraham, a general commandment.

00:26:43 --> 00:26:45

Right? And it's

00:26:45 --> 00:26:48

we don't have a that does of it.

00:26:48 --> 00:26:49

Yeah. There's no. Yeah. It's

00:26:52 --> 00:26:52

So therefore,

00:26:53 --> 00:26:54

if I offer him water,

00:26:55 --> 00:26:57

I'm sure in some places,

00:26:57 --> 00:26:59

that's what they could do.

00:26:59 --> 00:27:01

And if I go to a very wealthy

00:27:01 --> 00:27:03

man's house and he's got 5 rooms that

00:27:03 --> 00:27:05

I have to get through until I get

00:27:05 --> 00:27:06

to the main room

00:27:07 --> 00:27:08

and he offers me water,

00:27:09 --> 00:27:11

I'm gonna feel that he didn't do his

00:27:11 --> 00:27:12

job. Right? I expect

00:27:12 --> 00:27:15

a lot more than that. Right? Because what

00:27:15 --> 00:27:15

I see around me

00:27:16 --> 00:27:18

right? Right? Because what I see around me,

00:27:18 --> 00:27:20

it's this is not fitting. Right? This is

00:27:20 --> 00:27:22

not fitting. Be saying Pellegrino with water. Hey.

00:27:22 --> 00:27:24

You know what I, sometimes every once in

00:27:24 --> 00:27:25

a while, you meet somebody. I went to

00:27:25 --> 00:27:27

someone's house. It was one of these homes.

00:27:27 --> 00:27:29

You had to go he invited us for

00:27:29 --> 00:27:29

dinner.

00:27:30 --> 00:27:31

You gotta do 5 rooms until you get

00:27:31 --> 00:27:33

to the room that you're gonna sit in.

00:27:33 --> 00:27:34

Right?

00:27:34 --> 00:27:36

And there's, like, it's you think he sells

00:27:36 --> 00:27:37

luxury cars in the in his driveway

00:27:38 --> 00:27:40

from how many cars he has. Some petal.

00:27:40 --> 00:27:42

We said, oh, it's a beautiful backyard you

00:27:42 --> 00:27:43

have, but too bad that,

00:27:44 --> 00:27:46

there's no hijab between you and the neighbor's

00:27:46 --> 00:27:47

house

00:27:48 --> 00:27:50

because the the the sisters then, they can't

00:27:50 --> 00:27:51

swim in your pool.

00:27:52 --> 00:27:52

And

00:27:53 --> 00:27:54

the woman, she says,

00:27:55 --> 00:27:57

I know. We realized that. So we just

00:27:57 --> 00:27:59

bought the other house too. K? A lot

00:27:59 --> 00:28:00

of k.

00:28:01 --> 00:28:03

So when we went to these people's house,

00:28:03 --> 00:28:05

just to show you that generosity is different,

00:28:06 --> 00:28:07

we sat there on the porch,

00:28:09 --> 00:28:12

and he served us a sushi dinner. Right?

00:28:12 --> 00:28:14

There are all kinds of sushi,

00:28:15 --> 00:28:17

and we ate the sushi. Right? That's the

00:28:17 --> 00:28:18

the best sushi,

00:28:18 --> 00:28:20

probably in the town. A lot

00:28:21 --> 00:28:21

of

00:28:22 --> 00:28:23

good.

00:28:24 --> 00:28:24

I

00:28:25 --> 00:28:26

said,

00:28:30 --> 00:28:31

Right?

00:28:31 --> 00:28:32

And

00:28:32 --> 00:28:34

he said, no. This is the appetizer.

00:28:34 --> 00:28:35

Right?

00:28:36 --> 00:28:38

Who's the appetizer? We're we're grilling right now.

00:28:38 --> 00:28:39

The real dinner.

00:28:40 --> 00:28:40

So

00:28:40 --> 00:28:43

layer that to them is that's generosity to

00:28:43 --> 00:28:46

them. Right? Another person said generosity is so

00:28:46 --> 00:28:46

relative

00:28:47 --> 00:28:48

Yeah. For for

00:28:51 --> 00:28:52

the record.

00:28:55 --> 00:28:57

Okay. Just for the Arab to be correct.

00:28:57 --> 00:28:58

So

00:28:59 --> 00:29:03

everything's relative. Right? So in an organized society,

00:29:03 --> 00:29:05

I think we'll be very different from a

00:29:05 --> 00:29:07

Bedouin society. That's gonna be one of the

00:29:07 --> 00:29:09

differences. Right or wrong? Definitely. Definitely. In an

00:29:09 --> 00:29:13

any organized society, they like to categorize things

00:29:13 --> 00:29:13

and do it all

00:29:15 --> 00:29:17

Right? Like, we're gonna have a conference here.

00:29:17 --> 00:29:18

We're gonna have a long term planning meeting

00:29:18 --> 00:29:20

here. The HEV's year is from here to

00:29:20 --> 00:29:22

here. Right? And then by this time, you

00:29:22 --> 00:29:24

have to have finished this HEV's, then we're

00:29:24 --> 00:29:25

gonna have a HEV's party.

00:29:26 --> 00:29:27

And that's what

00:29:27 --> 00:29:29

I think is a big difference that there

00:29:30 --> 00:29:31

there are

00:29:32 --> 00:29:34

there are there are cultures of people. Cultures.

00:29:34 --> 00:29:36

They are very organized in how they do

00:29:36 --> 00:29:39

things. So the question then is is that

00:29:39 --> 00:29:41

Look at the Indonesians in Mecca and the

00:29:41 --> 00:29:44

Indonesians in Malaysians in Mecca and the Indonesians

00:29:44 --> 00:29:47

in Mecca for Umrah. They're so organized compared

00:29:47 --> 00:29:48

to any other countries.

00:29:49 --> 00:29:50

So is that level of organization,

00:29:51 --> 00:29:52

is there room in that in the Sharia?

00:29:53 --> 00:29:55

100%. 100%. You're because

00:29:55 --> 00:29:58

we must have for for aam, the general

00:29:58 --> 00:29:59

rule is if something when I say the

00:29:59 --> 00:30:01

aam, when we say the word aam, it's

00:30:01 --> 00:30:03

like, there is a rule, and that rule

00:30:03 --> 00:30:05

has not been confined by specifics.

00:30:05 --> 00:30:07

Mhmm. K? That's the way to understand. Yeah.

00:30:07 --> 00:30:09

If the rule is be generous,

00:30:10 --> 00:30:11

who are we to come and confine the

00:30:11 --> 00:30:13

generosity? Yeah. Unless

00:30:15 --> 00:30:16

unless I have an evidence or you come

00:30:16 --> 00:30:18

to me and say, no. No. Rasool Allah

00:30:18 --> 00:30:19

said you can be generous to everyone, but

00:30:19 --> 00:30:21

you cannot be generous to that person. Yep.

00:30:22 --> 00:30:24

Then, okay, we say, okay, that person excluded

00:30:24 --> 00:30:26

from my generosity. Right? Yeah. You can be

00:30:26 --> 00:30:27

generous to this this, but this person you

00:30:27 --> 00:30:30

cannot be generous to. Then that tafsiz happens.

00:30:30 --> 00:30:32

But in when the rule is

00:30:32 --> 00:30:34

and especially the who over here that you

00:30:34 --> 00:30:36

honor him, it is referring to prophet in

00:30:36 --> 00:30:37

the anyways.

00:30:38 --> 00:30:39

So we have to be able to provide

00:30:39 --> 00:30:41

that. The other part I think is important

00:30:41 --> 00:30:43

for us to understand is sometimes we think

00:30:43 --> 00:30:45

things are blackened. Mhmm. Right? So we will

00:30:45 --> 00:30:47

take I'm sure that he's and I I

00:30:47 --> 00:30:50

I I share this with with absolute,

00:30:51 --> 00:30:54

you know, with no intention to vilify, but

00:30:54 --> 00:30:56

to be able to have a discussion. Imam

00:30:56 --> 00:30:58

Shatabe is one of these those scholars that

00:30:58 --> 00:31:00

are used as the primary

00:31:02 --> 00:31:04

scholar that they would refer to is to

00:31:04 --> 00:31:06

say, oh, he has not allowed without he

00:31:06 --> 00:31:08

has not allowed moded, for example, or celebration

00:31:08 --> 00:31:10

of any type. Right? And, actually, the word

00:31:10 --> 00:31:13

itself, it says read. So he was against

00:31:13 --> 00:31:15

this idea of calling it read, not the

00:31:15 --> 00:31:17

mauled itself. Right? Because if you go and

00:31:17 --> 00:31:19

read some of Imam Shatabibi's work, you actually

00:31:19 --> 00:31:22

soon realize that when he's doing on on

00:31:23 --> 00:31:25

the 5 categories of,

00:31:25 --> 00:31:28

in that, he's actually mentioning that or the

00:31:28 --> 00:31:30

problem that I have is is in the

00:31:30 --> 00:31:32

the way he's. And in there he says,

00:31:32 --> 00:31:35

if there is a, then there's no problem.

00:31:35 --> 00:31:35

Yep.

00:31:36 --> 00:31:38

Right? He himself says that. Mhmm. And he

00:31:38 --> 00:31:39

himself

00:31:40 --> 00:31:43

confirms many of the of these times, for

00:31:43 --> 00:31:46

example, and this this might hurt sometimes, but

00:31:46 --> 00:31:47

he says,

00:31:48 --> 00:31:48

we need.

00:31:51 --> 00:31:53

Like, what are you gonna do now? Yeah.

00:31:53 --> 00:31:55

He he he himself said there's a that

00:31:56 --> 00:31:57

necessitates.

00:31:57 --> 00:31:59

Yeah. But there is. And if those of

00:31:59 --> 00:32:01

you that are students of knowledge, my sheikh

00:32:01 --> 00:32:02

has done, like, this entire,

00:32:03 --> 00:32:04

Sheikh Abdul Dila. What he did is he

00:32:04 --> 00:32:05

took Imam Shatabir's work,

00:32:06 --> 00:32:07

and he read them all, and he did

00:32:07 --> 00:32:10

a concise YouTube video, 13 to 15 minutes

00:32:10 --> 00:32:12

for you to be able to understand who

00:32:12 --> 00:32:15

Imam Shatabir is. And from his Sufi stance,

00:32:15 --> 00:32:17

from his Aqadi stance, from and in each

00:32:17 --> 00:32:18

one, he's very unique.

00:32:19 --> 00:32:21

So we can't disconnect a person and say,

00:32:21 --> 00:32:23

I got this one fatwa, and I I

00:32:23 --> 00:32:26

forget the rest of his greater understanding of

00:32:26 --> 00:32:28

one particular thing, which is. Now I I

00:32:28 --> 00:32:30

I sent a a picture to Omar. I

00:32:30 --> 00:32:32

think if we can, if you wanna put

00:32:32 --> 00:32:33

that up,

00:32:35 --> 00:32:37

then we wanna talk about something because,

00:32:38 --> 00:32:40

the argumentation begins while while the image comes

00:32:40 --> 00:32:41

up.

00:32:41 --> 00:32:44

The usual argument is, okay, anything that you

00:32:44 --> 00:32:46

and I do, you've heard this probably many

00:32:46 --> 00:32:48

times. It's like, are you doing this? Did

00:32:48 --> 00:32:50

Rasulullah did you have a Dalit for it?

00:32:50 --> 00:32:51

Right? Did Rasulullah

00:32:51 --> 00:32:53

tell you this? Where is the Dalit for

00:32:53 --> 00:32:55

it? So usually, the argument begins how the

00:32:55 --> 00:32:58

argument begins in in in the person's mind

00:32:58 --> 00:33:00

or in their minds is, for example, let's

00:33:00 --> 00:33:00

take

00:33:01 --> 00:33:01

anything.

00:33:02 --> 00:33:04

Give me a. Let's take,

00:33:04 --> 00:33:05

for example,

00:33:05 --> 00:33:07

let's take for now. Right?

00:33:08 --> 00:33:08

Of

00:33:09 --> 00:33:09

Right?

00:33:10 --> 00:33:12

I I know you work with me. Right?

00:33:12 --> 00:33:14

So, is of

00:33:14 --> 00:33:15

is it or?

00:33:16 --> 00:33:17

Is it

00:33:18 --> 00:33:19

or? Is it an obedience or is it

00:33:19 --> 00:33:20

disobedience?

00:33:20 --> 00:33:22

Is it an act of disobedience or obedience?

00:33:23 --> 00:33:23

It's,

00:33:24 --> 00:33:26

it's a act of obedience. It's a. Yeah.

00:33:26 --> 00:33:28

Okay. The people doing it are intending,

00:33:28 --> 00:33:30

to please Allah with this. Please

00:33:32 --> 00:33:34

Did prophet know about this or he didn't

00:33:34 --> 00:33:34

know about it?

00:33:35 --> 00:33:36

No. It did not exist in the term

00:33:36 --> 00:33:37

of the prophet, peace be upon. No. But

00:33:37 --> 00:33:40

Ali, he had the. Right? He knew that

00:33:40 --> 00:33:42

he had the. He was born. Oh, now.

00:33:44 --> 00:33:45

Yeah. Yeah.

00:33:45 --> 00:33:46

Like,

00:33:46 --> 00:33:47

Now

00:33:47 --> 00:33:48

when he knew it,

00:33:51 --> 00:33:52

did he tell you? So the person is

00:33:52 --> 00:33:54

gonna say there is no that, oh,

00:33:55 --> 00:33:57

He did not he did not tell me

00:33:57 --> 00:33:58

any hadith about celebrating.

00:34:11 --> 00:34:13

We cannot act upon it. Correct. The issue

00:34:13 --> 00:34:15

over here is if and again, this is

00:34:15 --> 00:34:17

their understanding. They say that the beta has

00:34:17 --> 00:34:19

to be divided into 2 categories,

00:34:20 --> 00:34:22

Ta and Masih. Mhmm. But we come and

00:34:22 --> 00:34:23

say that that's not true, actually.

00:34:24 --> 00:34:25

It's it's an obedience.

00:34:26 --> 00:34:28

It is an act of, and let's let's

00:34:28 --> 00:34:30

even take this for example before I get

00:34:30 --> 00:34:31

into that part.

00:34:31 --> 00:34:32

The,

00:34:32 --> 00:34:33

gem of Quran.

00:34:34 --> 00:34:34

Mhmm.

00:34:35 --> 00:34:36

The nubat on the Quran.

00:34:37 --> 00:34:38

All of this the prophet

00:34:38 --> 00:34:40

did not have knowledge that Did not didn't

00:34:40 --> 00:34:41

have knowledge of this.

00:34:42 --> 00:34:43

I did not tell you, oh, my people,

00:34:43 --> 00:34:45

when you get the Quran, please put it

00:34:45 --> 00:34:47

in the Mus'a. Some of you, even Abbas,

00:34:47 --> 00:34:49

please make sure you put nuktas nukat on

00:34:49 --> 00:34:51

it. You know, please put sure you put

00:34:51 --> 00:34:52

the Arab on it. He didn't say that.

00:34:52 --> 00:34:54

Right? So where did they get it? Well,

00:34:54 --> 00:34:55

here's the thing.

00:34:56 --> 00:34:56

The categorization

00:34:57 --> 00:34:58

of any masala,

00:34:58 --> 00:34:59

then you look at it, is it a

00:34:59 --> 00:35:00

obedience?

00:35:00 --> 00:35:01

Is it a disobedience?

00:35:02 --> 00:35:03

Or is it something?

00:35:05 --> 00:35:07

Sharia is indifferent. And in between these categories

00:35:07 --> 00:35:10

comes Mandub and Makru. Yeah. That's how we

00:35:10 --> 00:35:11

understand Sharia.

00:35:11 --> 00:35:13

Right? So when we put that third category,

00:35:14 --> 00:35:16

then it comes from the category of.

00:35:16 --> 00:35:17

Correct. It's.

00:35:17 --> 00:35:18

Okay. It's.

00:35:19 --> 00:35:21

Then then you don't have any masala left.

00:35:21 --> 00:35:23

Yeah. Right? Because you say this is Sharia

00:35:23 --> 00:35:25

is quite on it. And as long as

00:35:25 --> 00:35:27

within that particular action,

00:35:27 --> 00:35:29

we don't do something that is

00:35:30 --> 00:35:32

mohali for Sharia. For example, you know, some

00:35:32 --> 00:35:33

of the,

00:35:33 --> 00:35:34

you know, some of the brothers who were

00:35:34 --> 00:35:36

trying to convince me, they send me some

00:35:36 --> 00:35:37

mawali, then some pictures,

00:35:37 --> 00:35:39

some mawlids where guys and girls are sitting

00:35:39 --> 00:35:42

together one next to one another, and and

00:35:42 --> 00:35:44

they're just like, you know, like moving and

00:35:45 --> 00:35:46

you and I and any sheikh would say,

00:35:46 --> 00:35:48

this is not allowed in our sharia. Yeah.

00:35:49 --> 00:35:51

There's no for us, you know, sitting there

00:35:51 --> 00:35:55

and no. There has to be, girls and

00:35:55 --> 00:35:56

guys are separated,

00:35:56 --> 00:35:58

and and there's no mixing.

00:35:58 --> 00:36:00

No sheikh is gonna allow that mixing. Right?

00:36:00 --> 00:36:02

So from that particular angle go ahead. Want

00:36:02 --> 00:36:04

to say something? Yeah. I wanted to mention

00:36:04 --> 00:36:05

that the concept,

00:36:06 --> 00:36:06

yes.

00:36:07 --> 00:36:08

Eventually,

00:36:08 --> 00:36:10

we do have the hadith of the prophet

00:36:10 --> 00:36:11

all knowledge

00:36:11 --> 00:36:13

all knowledge of the heavens and the earth

00:36:13 --> 00:36:15

were were were placed into my heart. This

00:36:15 --> 00:36:17

is a hadith of an arjib, but Hamdi

00:36:17 --> 00:36:17

has

00:36:18 --> 00:36:20

a booklet on this hadith. So that's one

00:36:20 --> 00:36:21

thing. But

00:36:22 --> 00:36:24

at certain moments, the prophet did express

00:36:24 --> 00:36:25

the rida

00:36:26 --> 00:36:26

is pleasure

00:36:27 --> 00:36:29

of Allah the pleasure of Allah on a

00:36:29 --> 00:36:31

matter which he was not aware of.

00:36:32 --> 00:36:34

And that example of that is,

00:36:35 --> 00:36:37

I hear your footsteps in Jannah.

00:36:39 --> 00:36:40

What are you doing here? Yeah. So what

00:36:40 --> 00:36:43

is it why is Allah making me hear

00:36:43 --> 00:36:46

your footsteps in Jannah? That means clearly you're

00:36:46 --> 00:36:47

doing something nobody else is doing.

00:36:48 --> 00:36:51

So here, Allah has rewarded him for it,

00:36:51 --> 00:36:53

and yet the prophet is asking what was

00:36:53 --> 00:36:56

it. And that was the he does after

00:36:56 --> 00:36:57

every.

00:36:57 --> 00:36:59

Right? How about the one where

00:36:59 --> 00:37:02

the prophet turned around and said, who said

00:37:02 --> 00:37:02

something after?

00:37:04 --> 00:37:07

Oh, yeah. And so the thought they were

00:37:07 --> 00:37:10

maybe, perhaps he's displeased with it. But in

00:37:10 --> 00:37:13

fact, he said there were about 30 Mala'ika

00:37:13 --> 00:37:15

rushing to see who would write it first,

00:37:15 --> 00:37:16

and that was the saying,

00:37:23 --> 00:37:26

So here that's why it doesn't harm us

00:37:26 --> 00:37:28

to say that a particular

00:37:29 --> 00:37:30

matter may not have come up in the

00:37:30 --> 00:37:31

time of the messenger

00:37:31 --> 00:37:32

and

00:37:32 --> 00:37:34

it comes up in our time, and we

00:37:34 --> 00:37:34

believe.

00:37:35 --> 00:37:37

Right? Because it happened in his own time.

00:37:38 --> 00:37:40

Right? It happened in his own time. Yeah.

00:37:40 --> 00:37:42

And then and all of these Sahaba's understood

00:37:42 --> 00:37:44

this. Right? If we look at it, Sheikh,

00:37:44 --> 00:37:44

like,

00:37:46 --> 00:37:48

like and here's the interesting thing. I you

00:37:48 --> 00:37:50

know, and I I was doing this. So

00:37:50 --> 00:37:51

I I have a list that's going on,

00:37:52 --> 00:37:53

like, close

00:37:53 --> 00:37:56

to 123 scholars who are at the of

00:37:56 --> 00:37:58

a half is Mhmm.

00:37:58 --> 00:38:00

Have said that they're okay with this.

00:38:00 --> 00:38:02

Right? They're okay with knowing it.

00:38:03 --> 00:38:05

From the past. And and by the way,

00:38:05 --> 00:38:07

let me tell you something too. When you

00:38:07 --> 00:38:08

read,

00:38:10 --> 00:38:12

you notice he does not like

00:38:13 --> 00:38:14

Taqis al-'am.

00:38:15 --> 00:38:16

Yes.

00:38:16 --> 00:38:18

He does not even like

00:38:18 --> 00:38:20

to say that the

00:38:20 --> 00:38:20

or the

00:38:21 --> 00:38:22

Mandub

00:38:22 --> 00:38:22

to say

00:38:24 --> 00:38:25

3 times in the Quran.

00:38:25 --> 00:38:26

3

00:38:26 --> 00:38:27

times

00:38:27 --> 00:38:29

in sujood. Isn't that what we're all taught?

00:38:30 --> 00:38:33

He said, no. Don't say these things. Any

00:38:33 --> 00:38:35

any number and any sujood.

00:38:36 --> 00:38:38

So don't don't say it has to be

00:38:38 --> 00:38:40

this one, 3 times. This one, 3 times.

00:38:40 --> 00:38:44

He said, don't specify what Allah made vast.

00:38:44 --> 00:38:45

Right? I don't know. Out of fear that

00:38:45 --> 00:38:47

people will think that

00:38:48 --> 00:38:49

the deen specified it.

00:38:50 --> 00:38:51

K? So

00:38:51 --> 00:38:52

when,

00:38:52 --> 00:38:54

Amalekhi from Andalus

00:38:55 --> 00:38:58

says, no. No. I'm hesitant about naming one

00:38:58 --> 00:38:59

day to do.

00:38:59 --> 00:39:00

Right?

00:39:00 --> 00:39:01

This is within the spirit of his.

00:39:02 --> 00:39:05

Right? Just within the spirit. But he

00:39:05 --> 00:39:06

but

00:39:06 --> 00:39:07

we could probably assume

00:39:08 --> 00:39:08

that

00:39:09 --> 00:39:12

the reason is for this spirit, not to

00:39:12 --> 00:39:14

do tuxes of but, nonetheless,

00:39:15 --> 00:39:15

is this

00:39:16 --> 00:39:18

or is this from the of Marik?

00:39:18 --> 00:39:20

It's from is it?

00:39:21 --> 00:39:23

Right. And, Omer Omer, let's bring both screens

00:39:23 --> 00:39:24

back now.

00:39:24 --> 00:39:27

So it's one thing when you say something.

00:39:27 --> 00:39:28

This is very important

00:39:28 --> 00:39:30

that I hold this to be

00:39:31 --> 00:39:33

right or wrong, or not.

00:39:36 --> 00:39:37

Right? Out of

00:39:38 --> 00:39:39

then we respect each other.

00:39:42 --> 00:39:44

In fact, we're just following the.

00:39:44 --> 00:39:46

I hold the this

00:39:46 --> 00:39:48

of these scholars is is

00:39:49 --> 00:39:49

more beneficial

00:39:50 --> 00:39:53

And more sound arguments. Evidence. What's that? More

00:39:53 --> 00:39:54

sound arguments.

00:39:54 --> 00:39:56

Let me let let me take you to

00:39:56 --> 00:39:58

something else. Does not Allah,

00:39:58 --> 00:40:00

again, a matter that's aam

00:40:01 --> 00:40:03

in which we're making taksis of. Sure.

00:40:04 --> 00:40:06

Allah does not Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala tell

00:40:06 --> 00:40:06

us.

00:40:17 --> 00:40:17

Of course,

00:40:18 --> 00:40:20

here is a deen Al Quran in Islam.

00:40:26 --> 00:40:28

We are now commanded. Be happy with this.

00:40:29 --> 00:40:30

Commanded.

00:40:32 --> 00:40:32

Right?

00:40:33 --> 00:40:34

How do I have Farah?

00:40:35 --> 00:40:38

Just in my heart or on my actions?

00:40:38 --> 00:40:39

And which Fadlir Rahma?

00:40:40 --> 00:40:41

Fadlir

00:40:41 --> 00:40:42

Rahma.

00:40:43 --> 00:40:43

Fadlir

00:40:45 --> 00:40:45

Rahma.

00:40:52 --> 00:40:55

Yeah. In that in that particular, they've actually

00:40:55 --> 00:40:56

spoken about,

00:40:56 --> 00:40:58

I think close to 7 or 8 7

00:40:58 --> 00:41:01

or 8, maybe 9 different, and they said

00:41:01 --> 00:41:03

all of these are encompassing. Right? And then

00:41:03 --> 00:41:04

you you brought up a very beautiful point,

00:41:04 --> 00:41:06

and I think, you know, this is a

00:41:06 --> 00:41:07

mess

00:41:07 --> 00:41:09

here, but it's really interesting. My my sheikh

00:41:09 --> 00:41:10

used to say that,

00:41:15 --> 00:41:16

they have.

00:41:16 --> 00:41:18

So any difference opinion between jurists

00:41:19 --> 00:41:20

that

00:41:20 --> 00:41:22

leads you to 2 different paths. So one

00:41:22 --> 00:41:24

says go left, the other says no. I

00:41:24 --> 00:41:26

need you to go right. I understand from

00:41:26 --> 00:41:28

this side, we need to go right. The

00:41:28 --> 00:41:29

of Mufasiroun

00:41:30 --> 00:41:30

is called

00:41:31 --> 00:41:32

war.

00:41:33 --> 00:41:35

Right? It it gives us the the variance,

00:41:36 --> 00:41:37

you know, and and if you don't base

00:41:37 --> 00:41:39

it it allows us to understand that, okay,

00:41:40 --> 00:41:41

can actually mean

00:41:42 --> 00:41:43

It can actually mean

00:41:49 --> 00:41:50

All of these things are there.

00:41:50 --> 00:41:51

Now

00:41:51 --> 00:41:52

you look at the permutations.

00:41:53 --> 00:41:54

So if this

00:41:55 --> 00:41:57

could be understood this way, the next

00:41:58 --> 00:42:01

there's a in there. So now you have

00:42:01 --> 00:42:01

one

00:42:02 --> 00:42:04

and then 3 options. Then you take the

00:42:04 --> 00:42:06

next and then 3 options. That's like 37

00:42:07 --> 00:42:09

different So many. Yeah. So many.

00:42:09 --> 00:42:11

So how who am I to come and

00:42:11 --> 00:42:12

confine?

00:42:12 --> 00:42:15

Right? When Allah has given that in the

00:42:15 --> 00:42:17

Quran Okay. Let me ask you about another

00:42:17 --> 00:42:18

from the messenger.

00:42:19 --> 00:42:21

A man mentioned asked him, is it good

00:42:21 --> 00:42:23

to fast on a Monday?

00:42:23 --> 00:42:24

Yes.

00:42:24 --> 00:42:25

The prophet said Said

00:42:27 --> 00:42:27

Yeah.

00:42:29 --> 00:42:30

This is the day that I was born

00:42:30 --> 00:42:32

in. Right? And and and this is beautiful

00:42:32 --> 00:42:34

because if you just take one step before

00:42:35 --> 00:42:37

Musa alaihi salaam, he comes to Medina, he

00:42:37 --> 00:42:39

finds out that the Jews are fasting

00:42:39 --> 00:42:42

on Ashura for Musa alaihi salaam. So what

00:42:42 --> 00:42:43

did he say? So

00:42:44 --> 00:42:46

he could also fast, and we'll fast the

00:42:46 --> 00:42:48

next day. So the question then comes is,

00:42:48 --> 00:42:49

oh, why didn't prophet

00:42:51 --> 00:42:52

command us to fast on a Monday?

00:42:53 --> 00:42:56

Right? In that, he informed the I fast

00:42:56 --> 00:42:57

on a Monday because it is the day

00:42:57 --> 00:43:00

that I was born in. And why was

00:43:00 --> 00:43:02

the command not given? And there's answers that

00:43:02 --> 00:43:03

people have given. The ulama they have said,

00:43:03 --> 00:43:05

one of the answers is, if he had

00:43:05 --> 00:43:06

commanded

00:43:06 --> 00:43:09

out of the that he had for Allah,

00:43:10 --> 00:43:12

he was afraid that Allah might legislate the

00:43:12 --> 00:43:13

entire month as a fast.

00:43:14 --> 00:43:16

SubhanAllah. Right? So they were like, that's the

00:43:16 --> 00:43:18

reason this out of the rahma of prophet

00:43:18 --> 00:43:18

that

00:43:19 --> 00:43:21

when he was asked about Monday,

00:43:22 --> 00:43:23

he didn't say, you please go ahead and

00:43:23 --> 00:43:25

fast on Monday because I was born on

00:43:25 --> 00:43:27

that day. Rather say, that's the day I

00:43:27 --> 00:43:29

fast because, you know, I was born on

00:43:29 --> 00:43:30

that day. And it is out of his

00:43:30 --> 00:43:33

humbleness and love for us and kind care

00:43:33 --> 00:43:35

for us. That's how we understand this ayah.

00:43:35 --> 00:43:37

You know the, for that. Right?

00:43:37 --> 00:43:39

I I I heard a beautiful

00:43:39 --> 00:43:39

perception

00:43:41 --> 00:43:42

on Taraweeh

00:43:42 --> 00:43:43

in which the prophet,

00:43:46 --> 00:43:46

stopped

00:43:47 --> 00:43:48

the after 3 days. He used to pray

00:43:48 --> 00:43:49

in his home

00:43:50 --> 00:43:50

by himself.

00:43:51 --> 00:43:53

The Sahaba came behind him.

00:43:53 --> 00:43:54

1st night,

00:43:54 --> 00:43:57

2nd night more, 3rd night, a lot.

00:43:58 --> 00:44:00

And then we all know the prophet

00:44:01 --> 00:44:04

stopped out of fear of it being perceived

00:44:04 --> 00:44:05

as an obligation.

00:44:06 --> 00:44:07

I heard from one

00:44:09 --> 00:44:09

he said,

00:44:10 --> 00:44:11

the fear of the prophet

00:44:12 --> 00:44:14

was that it was so beautiful, the

00:44:14 --> 00:44:17

that he feared Allah would make an obligation

00:44:17 --> 00:44:18

on his ummah. Subhanallah. And then they wouldn't

00:44:18 --> 00:44:20

be able to carry it. That is Subhanallah.

00:44:22 --> 00:44:23

Right? So If if if if you take

00:44:23 --> 00:44:24

out the ayah,

00:44:24 --> 00:44:26

hadith, I think verse number 27.

00:44:27 --> 00:44:28

If you wanna put it up for the

00:44:28 --> 00:44:30

audience, there's a beautiful aya about this. Right?

00:44:30 --> 00:44:31

Where Allah says,

00:44:32 --> 00:44:33

Surat,

00:44:33 --> 00:44:36

and Hadith, verse number 27. Right? Where Allah

00:44:36 --> 00:44:37

says,

00:44:40 --> 00:44:43

The ones who followed, we is talking about

00:44:43 --> 00:44:46

is that we created in their hearts a

00:44:46 --> 00:44:47

form of love,

00:44:47 --> 00:44:48

a mercy.

00:44:50 --> 00:44:50

Right?

00:44:54 --> 00:44:55

And this this this

00:44:56 --> 00:44:59

of theirs that they they wanted to dedicate

00:44:59 --> 00:45:00

themselves for Allah

00:45:00 --> 00:45:02

I'm I have disconnected

00:45:03 --> 00:45:05

myself from this dunya. I have nothing to

00:45:05 --> 00:45:07

do, no marriage, nothing. So Allah

00:45:12 --> 00:45:16

says, This we had not written on them

00:45:16 --> 00:45:16

to do.

00:45:19 --> 00:45:20

They did it out of

00:45:21 --> 00:45:22

the love of Allah

00:45:22 --> 00:45:25

and His pleasure. But then Allah is rebuking

00:45:25 --> 00:45:26

them not for creating

00:45:27 --> 00:45:28

the but he's telling

00:45:30 --> 00:45:33

them You set yourself some principles that you're

00:45:33 --> 00:45:35

gonna create this new form of act of

00:45:35 --> 00:45:35

devotion

00:45:36 --> 00:45:38

and you didn't live up to your own

00:45:38 --> 00:45:41

standards. Mhmm. Right? So from here, some of

00:45:41 --> 00:45:43

the said that this ayah because sometimes this

00:45:43 --> 00:45:45

is the ayah that is given that, oh,

00:45:46 --> 00:45:48

this is the the leader of the Quran.

00:45:49 --> 00:45:51

Right? But if this is the daleel of

00:45:51 --> 00:45:53

the aya itself is is negating it.

00:45:54 --> 00:45:54

Yeah.

00:45:55 --> 00:45:55

So

00:45:56 --> 00:45:56

it has.

00:45:57 --> 00:45:59

It has. You did it, but you didn't

00:45:59 --> 00:46:01

fulfill the right. That's the problem that you

00:46:01 --> 00:46:04

did. By the way, for people to understand,

00:46:05 --> 00:46:06

does not mean monastic

00:46:07 --> 00:46:08

non non marriage.

00:46:08 --> 00:46:09

Yes.

00:46:09 --> 00:46:10

Here means

00:46:10 --> 00:46:13

he just devoted himself fully,

00:46:14 --> 00:46:15

to Ibadah,

00:46:15 --> 00:46:18

knowledge, and that's it. Right? So just so

00:46:18 --> 00:46:19

that people could understand that,

00:46:21 --> 00:46:22

in

00:46:22 --> 00:46:23

as I was taught it,

00:46:24 --> 00:46:26

it became known as monasticism.

00:46:27 --> 00:46:29

Mhmm. It became known. But at the early

00:46:29 --> 00:46:32

times, it was not I mean, Jurayj, for

00:46:32 --> 00:46:32

example,

00:46:33 --> 00:46:34

he was a Rahib. Right?

00:46:35 --> 00:46:37

Jurayd was a Rahib, and he's praised in

00:46:37 --> 00:46:37

the Quran.

00:46:38 --> 00:46:40

Right? So they they had their own,

00:46:41 --> 00:46:42

rules. And on the Catholic,

00:46:43 --> 00:46:44

the Christian

00:46:45 --> 00:46:46

Is a bit different. It is a bit

00:46:46 --> 00:46:49

different. So there is some discussion about that.

00:46:49 --> 00:46:51

I think, really, the the main point we

00:46:51 --> 00:46:53

wanna bring across is

00:46:53 --> 00:46:55

this dean has a is vast with a

00:46:55 --> 00:46:56

lot of opinions.

00:46:57 --> 00:46:59

When you are promoting something, you have to

00:46:59 --> 00:47:01

understand or or saying something in the community,

00:47:01 --> 00:47:02

you have to understand

00:47:05 --> 00:47:07

that you're saying this as an itchy heady

00:47:07 --> 00:47:09

matter. I have no problem with someone who

00:47:09 --> 00:47:10

says, okay. I'm gonna file a shot to

00:47:10 --> 00:47:11

be on this.

00:47:12 --> 00:47:12

Fine.

00:47:14 --> 00:47:16

Just note that it's an itchy head because

00:47:17 --> 00:47:18

100%. We see the prophet

00:47:18 --> 00:47:19

making tuxis.

00:47:23 --> 00:47:24

So therefore, the day he's born is not

00:47:24 --> 00:47:26

like anything else. This is the day Moses

00:47:26 --> 00:47:28

was saved. That day is not like any

00:47:28 --> 00:47:30

other day. Right? It's not like any other

00:47:30 --> 00:47:32

day. So that is an Ishada for Tuxis.

00:47:33 --> 00:47:34

Mhmm. And we see Malik

00:47:35 --> 00:47:36

having,

00:47:36 --> 00:47:38

a limitation very hesitant

00:47:39 --> 00:47:41

on specifying general matters. Right?

00:47:42 --> 00:47:43

So and we see a Shefaye permitting

00:47:44 --> 00:47:44

Permitting.

00:47:45 --> 00:47:48

Matters such as this specifying and adding, as

00:47:48 --> 00:47:49

we said in the of

00:47:49 --> 00:47:50

of Ahit,

00:47:51 --> 00:47:53

in previous streams. We have a vast religion,

00:47:55 --> 00:47:56

and you cannot

00:47:57 --> 00:47:59

shrink a vast religion except you're just gonna

00:47:59 --> 00:48:00

exhaust yourself.

00:48:01 --> 00:48:02

And I think we wanna be clear that

00:48:02 --> 00:48:04

we're not saying that everything is flexible in

00:48:04 --> 00:48:05

our religion.

00:48:05 --> 00:48:06

Everything is what?

00:48:06 --> 00:48:07

Flexible.

00:48:07 --> 00:48:10

Yeah. Like yeah. Yeah. Like, vastness is in

00:48:10 --> 00:48:13

certain areas where the deen has allowed this

00:48:13 --> 00:48:13

flexibility.

00:48:14 --> 00:48:17

Yep. Yeah. Right? There are areas there are

00:48:17 --> 00:48:18

areas where you and I and all the

00:48:18 --> 00:48:20

4 Medahibs are gonna be agreed on. Even

00:48:20 --> 00:48:23

the the Assari creed is gonna be agreed

00:48:23 --> 00:48:25

on. That there's 5 salas. There's gonna be

00:48:25 --> 00:48:27

this. There's, you know, 4 4 4 rakas

00:48:27 --> 00:48:30

for this. There's there's no you and I

00:48:30 --> 00:48:31

can't come and say, I think, you know

00:48:31 --> 00:48:31

what?

00:48:32 --> 00:48:33

We're we're doing a lot of sins from

00:48:33 --> 00:48:35

tomorrow. I'm gonna bust 2 more in Fajr.

00:48:35 --> 00:48:36

You know? I think we need to, you

00:48:36 --> 00:48:39

know, add 2 more to Fajr. That's where

00:48:39 --> 00:48:40

we stop. There's a red line and there's

00:48:40 --> 00:48:41

no there.

00:48:41 --> 00:48:43

I think it's important to note that,

00:48:45 --> 00:48:47

the Qatari evidences of our religion are like

00:48:47 --> 00:48:48

the trunk.

00:48:48 --> 00:48:49

Yes. Beautiful.

00:48:50 --> 00:48:50

And

00:48:51 --> 00:48:51

the Vanni

00:48:52 --> 00:48:54

interpretations are like the branches. Branches are always

00:48:54 --> 00:48:55

flexible.

00:48:56 --> 00:48:58

So how But the trunk cannot be moved.

00:48:58 --> 00:48:59

If a trunk moves, you have a big

00:48:59 --> 00:49:00

problem.

00:49:00 --> 00:49:02

So how That's such a beautiful Yeah. And

00:49:02 --> 00:49:04

that's what we we need to to focus

00:49:04 --> 00:49:06

on in in bringing our hearts together is

00:49:06 --> 00:49:07

understanding

00:49:07 --> 00:49:09

the branches cannot be a matter of

00:49:10 --> 00:49:11

and there are

00:49:11 --> 00:49:12

and

00:49:12 --> 00:49:13

too.

00:49:13 --> 00:49:14

There's

00:49:15 --> 00:49:16

Many people imagine

00:49:16 --> 00:49:19

is one thing. No. There is there are,

00:49:19 --> 00:49:21

there's a trunk, and there are branches in.

00:49:25 --> 00:49:27

That just came down on the ummah of

00:49:27 --> 00:49:29

q and a that never came up in

00:49:29 --> 00:49:30

the time of the salaf.

00:49:30 --> 00:49:33

Yep. And came up later, and one answered

00:49:33 --> 00:49:35

this way and another answered another way.

00:49:35 --> 00:49:36

Right? And so

00:49:37 --> 00:49:39

this is not gonna be something that,

00:49:39 --> 00:49:41

that there has to be agreement. We're not

00:49:41 --> 00:49:42

gonna be able to solve this. Right? Yeah.

00:49:42 --> 00:49:44

This is this has been around. And I

00:49:44 --> 00:49:46

think on both sides, and I wanna end

00:49:46 --> 00:49:48

this, this would might might be my closing

00:49:48 --> 00:49:49

remarks, and then we can maybe see if

00:49:49 --> 00:49:51

there's any question or something. But the Yes.

00:49:52 --> 00:49:53

Both sides,

00:49:53 --> 00:49:55

when, you know, I was blessed to to

00:49:55 --> 00:49:57

sit with this side, and I still have

00:49:57 --> 00:49:59

friends on and I don't wanna use sides.

00:49:59 --> 00:50:00

They're all Muslims.

00:50:00 --> 00:50:02

And and I get to see with people

00:50:02 --> 00:50:03

with different opinions, and we get to sit

00:50:03 --> 00:50:04

and talk.

00:50:04 --> 00:50:07

And what I actually find something really interesting

00:50:07 --> 00:50:08

is when you talk to the ones,

00:50:09 --> 00:50:11

who, masha'Allah, every Thursday night, they do

00:50:12 --> 00:50:14

of their their adgar and they come for

00:50:14 --> 00:50:16

Maghrib and they will do that, while others

00:50:16 --> 00:50:18

may not do that. But if you sit

00:50:18 --> 00:50:21

with all of them, right, especially the that

00:50:21 --> 00:50:23

comes and sits, you and I know that

00:50:23 --> 00:50:26

that entering Jannah is not showing up on

00:50:26 --> 00:50:28

a Thursday night and and just listening to

00:50:28 --> 00:50:29

some nashid and then sin the entire week.

00:50:29 --> 00:50:31

100%. It it doesn't work like that. And

00:50:31 --> 00:50:33

I I, you know, my sheikh used to

00:50:33 --> 00:50:35

say, if you believe that you're gonna enter

00:50:35 --> 00:50:37

Jannah by bobbing your head every Thursday night,

00:50:37 --> 00:50:38

then you're not making it to Jannah. Subhanahu.

00:50:38 --> 00:50:40

Right? And the other side is that, you

00:50:40 --> 00:50:42

know and both sides, if you ask them,

00:50:42 --> 00:50:44

can you describe to me the eyes of

00:50:44 --> 00:50:45

prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam?

00:50:46 --> 00:50:48

They will not be able to. Mhmm. The

00:50:48 --> 00:50:51

ulama might be, but the one who's

00:50:52 --> 00:50:54

doing hold, they're they're getting involved in these

00:50:54 --> 00:50:55

arguments.

00:50:56 --> 00:50:57

The bigger problem they have is they don't

00:50:57 --> 00:50:59

have of Rasulullah.

00:51:00 --> 00:51:01

Right? And that

00:51:01 --> 00:51:02

is the

00:51:02 --> 00:51:04

core of you recognizing

00:51:05 --> 00:51:07

Rasulullah and when we're there for the weekend,

00:51:07 --> 00:51:09

my talk is about that that that it

00:51:09 --> 00:51:11

doesn't matter what you are. Let's put let's

00:51:11 --> 00:51:13

put aside all the disputes. Mhmm. Can we

00:51:13 --> 00:51:16

all agree to this idea that we all

00:51:16 --> 00:51:17

have a major

00:51:18 --> 00:51:19

deficiency

00:51:19 --> 00:51:20

in our of

00:51:22 --> 00:51:23

and the answer is yes. I will be

00:51:23 --> 00:51:25

the first one to say that I don't

00:51:25 --> 00:51:27

I don't have I have not given the

00:51:27 --> 00:51:28

hap of Rasulullah's

00:51:29 --> 00:51:31

with the amount of books I have in

00:51:31 --> 00:51:32

my library. I have not read them all.

00:51:32 --> 00:51:34

Super. I haven't given that hap.

00:51:34 --> 00:51:36

Right? So then we don't have right to

00:51:36 --> 00:51:38

fight. I don't even know him enough.

00:51:39 --> 00:51:42

Let's let's focus on knowing him. And let

00:51:42 --> 00:51:42

me,

00:51:42 --> 00:51:44

also mention one thing. As, Omar, we can

00:51:44 --> 00:51:47

now start to shift the camera so that

00:51:47 --> 00:51:49

we can include our second guest whom you'll

00:51:49 --> 00:51:50

meet tomorrow,

00:51:52 --> 00:51:53

From Seattle,

00:51:57 --> 00:52:00

Chefei. Chefeis today. Two Chefeis. Hey. Since we

00:52:00 --> 00:52:02

have 2 Chefeis, why don't we advertise a

00:52:02 --> 00:52:02

Chefei

00:52:03 --> 00:52:03

track

00:52:04 --> 00:52:04

with our

00:52:05 --> 00:52:07

other beloved Chefei, Sheikh Mahdiilak.

00:52:08 --> 00:52:10

Burn that up when you're ready,

00:52:10 --> 00:52:12

and we could start shifting the camera to

00:52:12 --> 00:52:14

bring all 3 of us in the in

00:52:14 --> 00:52:15

the on the stream.

00:52:16 --> 00:52:17

I'm not rush. I'm here.

00:52:18 --> 00:52:19

And in the meantime, I want to,

00:52:20 --> 00:52:21

was gonna mention,

00:52:23 --> 00:52:25

I just lost my train of thought. You

00:52:25 --> 00:52:26

were you were saying,

00:52:28 --> 00:52:28

mhmm,

00:52:30 --> 00:52:32

yes. I was saying the sign of a

00:52:32 --> 00:52:32

bad intention

00:52:33 --> 00:52:35

is to only look at the bad apples

00:52:36 --> 00:52:39

of the opposite opinion. Right?

00:52:40 --> 00:52:42

And I think everyone's at some point in

00:52:42 --> 00:52:43

time maybe have been guilty of that.

00:52:44 --> 00:52:47

Oh, okay. If you're right, if your roots

00:52:47 --> 00:52:49

are right, why are you producing this miserable

00:52:49 --> 00:52:52

fruit? Right? If you go that route, everyone

00:52:52 --> 00:52:54

is gonna be wrong. Right?

00:52:54 --> 00:52:56

If you really go that route, everyone's gonna

00:52:56 --> 00:52:57

be wrong. And to me, it's a sign

00:52:57 --> 00:52:58

of a bad intent.

00:52:58 --> 00:53:01

You're literally just trying to find a way

00:53:01 --> 00:53:03

to show to embarrass your other person.

00:53:03 --> 00:53:05

And this is one of the things that

00:53:06 --> 00:53:08

it's it's a madamun behavior.

00:53:08 --> 00:53:10

Right? It's not a good The weakest argument.

00:53:10 --> 00:53:13

Weakest argument. Yeah. It's a madamun behavior. You

00:53:13 --> 00:53:16

could just as easily find the the fudalah

00:53:16 --> 00:53:19

of of of your opponent's side. And, again,

00:53:19 --> 00:53:21

the question is,

00:53:21 --> 00:53:23

we're not coming to establish the truth here.

00:53:24 --> 00:53:25

We are Khudam

00:53:26 --> 00:53:27

sub subservient

00:53:28 --> 00:53:29

servants

00:53:29 --> 00:53:31

of Allah and his messenger to the capacity

00:53:31 --> 00:53:32

that we can as we are taught by

00:53:32 --> 00:53:33

our teachers.

00:53:34 --> 00:53:35

Mhmm. K?

00:53:35 --> 00:53:37

And that's it. Leave it to Allah to

00:53:37 --> 00:53:39

decide who's gonna be raised and who's gonna

00:53:39 --> 00:53:41

be lowered. Which group The power of Allah.

00:53:41 --> 00:53:43

Is their word is gonna be strong in

00:53:43 --> 00:53:44

society. Which group is gonna be weak? And

00:53:44 --> 00:53:45

so many people have a

00:53:46 --> 00:53:47

I'm telling you, it's

00:53:51 --> 00:53:54

When they see the, an opposing opinion being

00:53:54 --> 00:53:56

said that they don't like, they become so

00:53:56 --> 00:53:57

angry. The root of that anger is.

00:53:59 --> 00:54:01

Allah will that group exists.

00:54:01 --> 00:54:03

That doesn't mean it's correct or incorrect,

00:54:03 --> 00:54:06

but it you must begin by accepting that.

00:54:07 --> 00:54:08

Allah has willed it for a wisdom that

00:54:08 --> 00:54:11

he has. You must accept that. After you

00:54:11 --> 00:54:13

accept that, now you can ask what is

00:54:13 --> 00:54:13

the mashruah

00:54:14 --> 00:54:17

reaction? What is the reaction that the Sharia

00:54:17 --> 00:54:18

commands me to have?

00:54:19 --> 00:54:21

For sure. That's it. You are you it's

00:54:21 --> 00:54:24

not up to you who Allah elevates or

00:54:24 --> 00:54:25

doesn't elevate. Don't get angry who Allah elevates

00:54:25 --> 00:54:27

or doesn't anger elevate.

00:54:27 --> 00:54:29

And that's what we do. We kinda get

00:54:29 --> 00:54:31

that from the LGBTQ training, by the way,

00:54:31 --> 00:54:33

just so you know. Or as you say,

00:54:33 --> 00:54:36

lick ridicule. The Ligbtq. Yeah. The Ligbtq. We

00:54:36 --> 00:54:38

get that from the Ligbtq you train, which

00:54:38 --> 00:54:39

is we'd look at the actions of of

00:54:39 --> 00:54:42

individual, and then we apply it to the

00:54:42 --> 00:54:43

entire subset.

00:54:43 --> 00:54:45

Mhmm. We cannot do that. Right? With and

00:54:45 --> 00:54:46

then that's the train that's how they're trained

00:54:46 --> 00:54:48

us. Right? Oh, and then they're like, oh,

00:54:48 --> 00:54:50

all of you are like that. Yeah. Exactly.

00:54:50 --> 00:54:52

That's not how it works. Right? That's not

00:54:52 --> 00:54:54

how it works. Anyhow, may Allah give us

00:54:54 --> 00:54:56

the All 3 of them. Give us yeah.

00:54:56 --> 00:54:58

And and you know what? I wanna just

00:54:58 --> 00:55:00

little bit elaborate on Madifa, and then we

00:55:00 --> 00:55:01

will be there on the weekend Insha'Allah.

00:55:02 --> 00:55:03

So Madifa

00:55:04 --> 00:55:06

of Rasulullah SAWSALAM is built on 5 sciences.

00:55:06 --> 00:55:07

These are called.

00:55:08 --> 00:55:12

Yeah. That was the original intended intended course

00:55:12 --> 00:55:13

that we were going to do, Insha'Allah.

00:55:15 --> 00:55:16

How are you doing?

00:55:16 --> 00:55:17

How are you doing?

00:55:20 --> 00:55:21

So nice to see you.

00:55:24 --> 00:55:26

Yeah. I think you're gonna have to move.

00:55:26 --> 00:55:27

You can go on, Shirk Ahmed. The the

00:55:27 --> 00:55:28

5 points of

00:55:29 --> 00:55:31

Sure. So of Rasulullah

00:55:31 --> 00:55:33

is is is number 1 is

00:55:34 --> 00:55:35

Right?

00:55:35 --> 00:55:37

Is basically where you have

00:55:37 --> 00:55:39

that you travel through the chronological

00:55:39 --> 00:55:40

order of prophet's

00:55:40 --> 00:55:42

life. The second part of

00:55:43 --> 00:55:46

is and this is the that everybody knows.

00:55:46 --> 00:55:46

Right? He

00:55:47 --> 00:55:48

was born on this day. This happened, this

00:55:48 --> 00:55:49

happened, this happened, this happened, and he met

00:55:49 --> 00:55:50

and he,

00:55:50 --> 00:55:51

sallallahu alaihi wasallam, he met Rafiq. So this

00:55:51 --> 00:55:52

is the the the siala. This is the

00:55:52 --> 00:55:53

chronological siala. The second part of the siala

00:55:53 --> 00:55:54

of nabi, Ullum and Nabawiyah is Shanal.

00:56:01 --> 00:56:04

Shanal is the characteristics of Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi

00:56:04 --> 00:56:04

Wasallam,

00:56:06 --> 00:56:07

Aqal Anjal,

00:56:07 --> 00:56:09

Adaj, all these character the eyes of prophet

00:56:09 --> 00:56:11

sallallam, they were

00:56:11 --> 00:56:13

almond eyed, they were extremely white and extremely

00:56:13 --> 00:56:14

black. All of these

00:56:15 --> 00:56:17

these descriptions, for example, the hair of prophet

00:56:17 --> 00:56:20

sallallahu alaihi wasallam, they were either a wafra

00:56:20 --> 00:56:22

or a limma or a jumma. Right? So

00:56:22 --> 00:56:24

all of these wafra is when it's up

00:56:24 --> 00:56:26

to the ear, limma is in between your

00:56:26 --> 00:56:28

your earlobe to shoulder, and jumma is when

00:56:28 --> 00:56:30

it goes past your shoulders. So these characteristics

00:56:31 --> 00:56:32

tells us a little bit about prophet

00:56:33 --> 00:56:36

on his physical as well as his spiritual

00:56:36 --> 00:56:38

characteristics in Shamal. Then you have the next

00:56:38 --> 00:56:40

part which is the Khasais of Nabi sallallahu

00:56:40 --> 00:56:42

alaihi wa sallam. These are special rulings and

00:56:42 --> 00:56:43

I tell this this is the the chapter

00:56:43 --> 00:56:45

that CNN and Fox News loves the most.

00:56:45 --> 00:56:47

Right? Because they're like, oh, how did he

00:56:47 --> 00:56:48

do this? And how did he do this?

00:56:48 --> 00:56:49

And that don't make sense. And I'm like,

00:56:49 --> 00:56:50

yeah. But he's a prophet.

00:56:51 --> 00:56:54

Right? Inch isn't isn't your guy who was

00:56:54 --> 00:56:56

being charged with felony running for the presidency?

00:56:56 --> 00:56:57

Why do you get that? Right? Like, I'm

00:56:57 --> 00:56:59

like, don't come and tell me that you

00:57:00 --> 00:57:02

there there are exceptional rules for leaders. You

00:57:02 --> 00:57:04

have exceptional rules for leaders all the time

00:57:04 --> 00:57:06

that a president cannot be tried.

00:57:07 --> 00:57:09

Right? It cannot be thrown into a prison

00:57:09 --> 00:57:11

prison. Why do you have these exceptional rules?

00:57:11 --> 00:57:12

Then Rasulullah SAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWSAWS.

00:57:17 --> 00:57:19

These are unique things that belong to prophet

00:57:19 --> 00:57:20

SAWSAWSAWSAWSAWS.

00:57:21 --> 00:57:22

Then you have the

00:57:22 --> 00:57:24

the then you have the dala'il of Nabi

00:57:24 --> 00:57:27

salallahu alaihi wa sallam. These are the evidentiary

00:57:27 --> 00:57:28

grounds on which you and I can prove

00:57:28 --> 00:57:29

to myself

00:57:29 --> 00:57:31

and my heart and your heart and to

00:57:31 --> 00:57:33

convince ourselves that prophet sallam is

00:57:34 --> 00:57:36

in actual Nabi. And these dada'il, again, there's

00:57:36 --> 00:57:38

there are categorizations of these dada'il, and we're

00:57:38 --> 00:57:40

not gonna get into that. And the last

00:57:40 --> 00:57:42

part is the fada'il of Nabi sallallahu alaihi

00:57:42 --> 00:57:43

wa sallam.

00:57:43 --> 00:57:46

Right? The fada'il of Nabi Muhammad sallallahu alaihi

00:57:46 --> 00:57:49

wa sallam, how he was superior to every

00:57:49 --> 00:57:51

single nabi that has come.

00:57:51 --> 00:57:53

Right? For example an example of that, and

00:57:53 --> 00:57:54

I'll I'll I'll give that back to you

00:57:54 --> 00:57:57

guys. For example, Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, Allah

00:57:58 --> 00:57:59

says in the Quran, when Musa Alaihi Salam,

00:57:59 --> 00:58:02

he came to the sea and his entire

00:58:02 --> 00:58:03

nation was there. What did he say?

00:58:08 --> 00:58:09

Four things. When prophet

00:58:09 --> 00:58:11

was in the in the cave,

00:58:12 --> 00:58:14

he what did he say? He said,

00:58:17 --> 00:58:19

The they took these 3, these ayah, and

00:58:19 --> 00:58:21

they said this tells us that Rasulullah,

00:58:22 --> 00:58:24

his understanding of Allah

00:58:24 --> 00:58:26

was of a higher level than Musa alaihi

00:58:26 --> 00:58:26

salam.

00:58:28 --> 00:58:29

Why? Because he,

00:58:30 --> 00:58:32

for example, Musa alaihi salam, when he comes

00:58:32 --> 00:58:33

to the

00:58:33 --> 00:58:35

the the the sea, he says what? That,

00:58:38 --> 00:58:40

He uses the word rab. Allah

00:58:40 --> 00:58:41

says,

00:58:45 --> 00:58:46

he uses Subhanallah.

00:58:48 --> 00:58:51

Right? Subhanallah. Higher. Then Subhanallah.

00:58:52 --> 00:58:53

Musa alayhi salaam

00:59:03 --> 00:59:04

Who bought this?

00:59:05 --> 00:59:06

Who who Who is

00:59:07 --> 00:59:08

this? Right?

00:59:08 --> 00:59:10

And and then the next part,

00:59:11 --> 00:59:14

Musa Alaihi Salam call Mahia with me. With

00:59:14 --> 00:59:17

Musa Alaihi Salam, his entire nation was behind

00:59:17 --> 00:59:19

him, but he forgot them. With prophet

00:59:21 --> 00:59:22

he was in the in the cave. How

00:59:22 --> 00:59:24

many people were there in the cave?

00:59:24 --> 00:59:26

2. Should have been in

00:59:28 --> 00:59:28

the Nah.

00:59:29 --> 00:59:30

But he used the word.

00:59:33 --> 00:59:33

Even the

00:59:36 --> 00:59:36

He remembered

00:59:37 --> 00:59:38

you and I in that

00:59:53 --> 00:59:54

we will never understand prophet sallallahu alaihi wa

00:59:54 --> 00:59:55

sallam.

00:59:55 --> 00:59:57

You okay. Let's say them again. You said

00:59:57 --> 01:00:00

as Siratuh, Shamaylu, Khasa Isu. I'll send you

01:00:00 --> 01:00:02

the text. I'll send Fadahu alaihi. I'll

01:00:03 --> 01:00:05

send you the slide, but it's Shamayhi

01:00:10 --> 01:00:12

proofs of prophethood. Proofs of prophethood. Yes. And

01:00:12 --> 01:00:14

that's so important. I think that should that's

01:00:14 --> 01:00:16

so important for especially So

01:00:17 --> 01:00:18

has been divided. If you study the they

01:00:18 --> 01:00:20

have been divided into 3 categories. They've been

01:00:20 --> 01:00:21

divided into

01:00:24 --> 01:00:25

No. The that came before he became.

01:00:26 --> 01:00:28

Then there were that happened during the life

01:00:28 --> 01:00:30

of Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, and there are

01:00:30 --> 01:00:33

that are happening till today. No. No. And

01:00:33 --> 01:00:35

there is that is still to come. There

01:00:35 --> 01:00:37

is still to come. And I'm waiting on

01:00:37 --> 01:00:37

1. Categories?

01:00:38 --> 01:00:40

There, sorry. Go ahead. I don't wanna cut

01:00:40 --> 01:00:41

you off. Yeah. No. So these are the

01:00:41 --> 01:00:43

the 3 categories, and each one

01:00:44 --> 01:00:46

numerous examples of evidences

01:00:46 --> 01:00:48

that Rasulullah is the true messenger exists. You're

01:00:48 --> 01:00:50

saying you're waiting for 1? I'm waiting for

01:00:50 --> 01:00:52

1 that I believe will happen in our

01:00:52 --> 01:00:54

lifetime, and I don't mean to be gross

01:00:54 --> 01:00:55

or anything, but

01:00:55 --> 01:00:56

it's

01:00:56 --> 01:00:58

it's gonna be a proof of profit. And

01:00:58 --> 01:01:00

I like to say it often now because

01:01:00 --> 01:01:00

people

01:01:01 --> 01:01:02

they're gonna see it someday.

01:01:03 --> 01:01:04

And that is the prophet

01:01:05 --> 01:01:07

said, a time will come

01:01:07 --> 01:01:09

when people will fornicate

01:01:09 --> 01:01:11

right in the streets. You were gonna go.

01:01:11 --> 01:01:12

I I've actually been saying this to my

01:01:12 --> 01:01:13

community.

01:01:14 --> 01:01:17

Yeah. I generates Yeah. It already has come.

01:01:17 --> 01:01:18

The last

01:01:18 --> 01:01:22

parade. Subhash. The last the parade. Even yesterday,

01:01:22 --> 01:01:24

what happened on Instagram where somebody came live

01:01:24 --> 01:01:26

on Instagram and then there was, like, one

01:01:26 --> 01:01:28

of these scenes happened live. They did it

01:01:28 --> 01:01:30

live and they had to block Instagram.

01:01:30 --> 01:01:32

And it already happened in the parade in

01:01:32 --> 01:01:35

California Yeah. Where there were guys and girls,

01:01:35 --> 01:01:38

like, there was nothing. And the police was

01:01:38 --> 01:01:40

okay with it, and there were young children.

01:01:40 --> 01:01:42

They were being brought to say, in the

01:01:42 --> 01:01:43

name of love, they need to see all

01:01:43 --> 01:01:46

of this. That's insane. So it's it's already

01:01:46 --> 01:01:47

happening. And,

01:01:47 --> 01:01:49

think just think about it logically. A generation,

01:01:51 --> 01:01:54

the second or third generation now, raised on

01:01:54 --> 01:01:55

Internet *.

01:01:57 --> 01:01:58

Right? That means he was raised on it.

01:01:58 --> 01:02:00

His dad was raised on it. His grandfather

01:02:00 --> 01:02:02

was raised on it. What the heck is

01:02:02 --> 01:02:04

so what what is the big deal

01:02:04 --> 01:02:05

with this? There's no

01:02:06 --> 01:02:07

the has been

01:02:09 --> 01:02:11

trampled on for 50 years now.

01:02:11 --> 01:02:13

That's gonna happen someday. Right?

01:02:13 --> 01:02:15

So for for why would you have an

01:02:15 --> 01:02:17

issue with that? Like, why would anyone have

01:02:17 --> 01:02:19

an issue with this being done in public?

01:02:19 --> 01:02:20

Right?

01:02:20 --> 01:02:23

So those kids who are attending those parades,

01:02:24 --> 01:02:26

it's like abuse. Right? But

01:02:26 --> 01:02:27

those kids,

01:02:28 --> 01:02:32

when they become managers of making decisions and

01:02:32 --> 01:02:33

they become people in,

01:02:34 --> 01:02:35

townships

01:02:36 --> 01:02:38

who make these laws, these local laws.

01:02:39 --> 01:02:41

And they say, my mom took me there.

01:02:41 --> 01:02:43

What's the problem? Right? Because he's gonna judge

01:02:43 --> 01:02:45

his morality based on what his mom and

01:02:45 --> 01:02:47

dad did with him. And this example of

01:02:47 --> 01:02:48

that happened to me today. I went to

01:02:48 --> 01:02:52

a coffee shop. The men's bathroom was closed,

01:02:53 --> 01:02:55

and it says use the next door bathroom.

01:02:55 --> 01:02:57

Yeah. So I went up to the lady,

01:02:57 --> 01:02:58

and I said I need to use the

01:02:58 --> 01:02:59

bathroom, but that's a girl's bathroom. And she

01:02:59 --> 01:03:00

was like, this is fine.

01:03:01 --> 01:03:02

And I was like I was like, no.

01:03:02 --> 01:03:04

It's not fine. Like, I don't wanna use

01:03:04 --> 01:03:06

the girl's bathroom. Yeah. And she and then

01:03:06 --> 01:03:08

but this is that 3rd generation that was

01:03:08 --> 01:03:10

brought up on that. Yeah. So she did

01:03:10 --> 01:03:13

not find anything wrong in telling me to

01:03:13 --> 01:03:15

go and use the lady. This has happened

01:03:15 --> 01:03:17

to me today in the coffee shop. SubhanAllah.

01:03:17 --> 01:03:19

Right? So this is exactly what you're saying,

01:03:19 --> 01:03:21

that these things are gonna eventually, you know,

01:03:21 --> 01:03:23

harm us. But again, inshallah, in our when

01:03:23 --> 01:03:25

I we're there, I wanna share more light

01:03:25 --> 01:03:27

on this inshallah on these 5 sciences.

01:03:28 --> 01:03:29

And and the intention was that we would

01:03:29 --> 01:03:31

come and teach a metin on this in

01:03:31 --> 01:03:32

Darul Fath,

01:03:32 --> 01:03:34

but then we switched it to Surah Kahab

01:03:34 --> 01:03:35

because a lot of people, you know, and

01:03:35 --> 01:03:37

you were not gonna be there because I

01:03:37 --> 01:03:38

needed you to be there because we would

01:03:38 --> 01:03:40

have learned and then I wanna rip off

01:03:40 --> 01:03:42

of your energy insha Allah. Now we'll make

01:03:42 --> 01:03:43

it a time for our guests as as

01:03:43 --> 01:03:45

well. He's been very patient, masha'Allah.

01:03:46 --> 01:03:46

May Allah

01:03:47 --> 01:03:48

give you bless you, Sheikh, you know, for

01:03:48 --> 01:03:50

coming from Seattle all the way.

01:03:51 --> 01:03:53

Masha'Allah. We have with us Sheikh Asadullah.

01:03:54 --> 01:03:56

He is from, Seattle originally.

01:03:57 --> 01:03:59

You're not here in the studio. I mean,

01:04:00 --> 01:04:01

Omar made me look,

01:04:02 --> 01:04:05

we're all even here. But Sheikh Hasidullah

01:04:05 --> 01:04:07

could have maybe possibly been in the NBA,

01:04:08 --> 01:04:10

but instead, he went on a different journey.

01:04:11 --> 01:04:12

1st, as a Pentecostal

01:04:13 --> 01:04:13

preacher,

01:04:15 --> 01:04:17

then now as a Dail to Islam.

01:04:18 --> 01:04:21

Speaking about dala'il, proofs of prophethood,

01:04:21 --> 01:04:23

let's ask you a simple question.

01:04:23 --> 01:04:24

How did you go

01:04:25 --> 01:04:26

from Pentecostal

01:04:26 --> 01:04:26

preacher

01:04:28 --> 01:04:29

to now a Muslim? What were the

01:04:30 --> 01:04:32

of Islam and of the prophet, peace be

01:04:32 --> 01:04:32

upon him,

01:04:33 --> 01:04:33

that,

01:04:34 --> 01:04:35

made that happen?

01:04:36 --> 01:04:36

Good luck.

01:04:37 --> 01:04:38

Yeah. So

01:04:39 --> 01:04:39

I think

01:04:41 --> 01:04:43

what changed my life, I think, was seeing

01:04:43 --> 01:04:43

people,

01:04:44 --> 01:04:46

who carried the banner and held up the

01:04:46 --> 01:04:46

message.

01:04:48 --> 01:04:50

And I think the the most beautiful thing

01:04:51 --> 01:04:53

about Islam is that we have the senate

01:04:53 --> 01:04:54

that goes back to the prophet Muhammad,

01:04:55 --> 01:04:58

which differs from every other religion out there

01:04:58 --> 01:04:58

in the world.

01:04:59 --> 01:04:59

And,

01:05:01 --> 01:05:03

I think, you know, the first first Muslims

01:05:03 --> 01:05:03

that I met were in,

01:05:04 --> 01:05:05

were in Turkey

01:05:06 --> 01:05:08

and visited them and and saw them and

01:05:08 --> 01:05:10

kept asking, like, why are they doing this?

01:05:10 --> 01:05:12

Why are they doing this? Why are they

01:05:12 --> 01:05:12

doing this?

01:05:13 --> 01:05:15

And so they kept telling me, oh, this

01:05:15 --> 01:05:16

is from the sunnah of the prophet Muhammad

01:05:16 --> 01:05:17

sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.

01:05:18 --> 01:05:20

And it just begin to,

01:05:20 --> 01:05:22

change my life because at the same time,

01:05:22 --> 01:05:23

you're always looking,

01:05:24 --> 01:05:26

I think, as a human for another way

01:05:26 --> 01:05:28

and a better way. Mhmm. And you're looking

01:05:28 --> 01:05:30

for examples of how to,

01:05:31 --> 01:05:33

you know, get closer to your Lord.

01:05:34 --> 01:05:36

And so I think I found myself,

01:05:37 --> 01:05:39

kind of hitting a a peak or a

01:05:39 --> 01:05:39

pinnacle

01:05:40 --> 01:05:42

and then wanting to go more. And so

01:05:42 --> 01:05:43

then when I saw these things, I said,

01:05:43 --> 01:05:44

oh, man.

01:05:45 --> 01:05:47

You know, these these people, I've got to,

01:05:48 --> 01:05:51

I've gotta try to now convert them and,

01:05:52 --> 01:05:54

what what I I used to use to

01:05:54 --> 01:05:56

to convert people and make them,

01:05:57 --> 01:05:58

into Christians,

01:05:58 --> 01:06:00

begin to use the same rules on myself.

01:06:00 --> 01:06:03

And and, before I knew it, my love

01:06:03 --> 01:06:05

for the prophet Muhammad alaihi wasalam had grown

01:06:05 --> 01:06:06

to the point where it

01:06:06 --> 01:06:07

it had, you know,

01:06:08 --> 01:06:09

toppled that of what I had for the

01:06:09 --> 01:06:10

for the prophet,

01:06:11 --> 01:06:12

Isa Alaihi Salam.

01:06:13 --> 01:06:15

And then I said to myself, like, you

01:06:15 --> 01:06:17

know, how how am I calling myself now

01:06:17 --> 01:06:19

a follower of him when I'm really following

01:06:19 --> 01:06:20

in reality,

01:06:20 --> 01:06:23

Islam. Subhanahu. And and through, you know, and

01:06:23 --> 01:06:24

the life of the prophet, mama, mama, mama,

01:06:24 --> 01:06:24

mama.

01:06:40 --> 01:06:43

You know, the emulation of the

01:06:43 --> 01:06:44

the prophet,

01:06:45 --> 01:06:47

the way that the Muslims have now emulated

01:06:47 --> 01:06:49

the life of the prophet by the the

01:06:49 --> 01:06:51

the, you know, by the life that he

01:06:51 --> 01:06:53

lived. And I think that's another aspect that

01:06:53 --> 01:06:56

that beautifies Islam and separates it from other,

01:06:57 --> 01:06:58

religions,

01:06:58 --> 01:06:59

specifically those from.

01:07:02 --> 01:07:04

So you you live in Tareem now, and

01:07:04 --> 01:07:05

and, Omar, we could go to the 3

01:07:05 --> 01:07:06

screen.

01:07:08 --> 01:07:10

You live in Tareem or you,

01:07:11 --> 01:07:13

are moving back. Are you staying still in

01:07:13 --> 01:07:15

Tareem? I'm I'm yeah. I'm in the process

01:07:15 --> 01:07:18

of moving back. Okay. Yeah. So when you

01:07:18 --> 01:07:18

lived there,

01:07:19 --> 01:07:21

what was the biggest takeaway

01:07:22 --> 01:07:24

of how they connect people's hearts to the

01:07:24 --> 01:07:25

messenger

01:07:26 --> 01:07:27

because that's the point and that's one of

01:07:27 --> 01:07:28

their biggest goals

01:07:30 --> 01:07:32

is connecting the heart to the prophet, peace

01:07:32 --> 01:07:34

be upon him. So what are some of

01:07:34 --> 01:07:34

the methods

01:07:35 --> 01:07:36

utilized

01:07:36 --> 01:07:38

in doing so? Yeah. I think that they,

01:07:39 --> 01:07:41

you know, they they try to emulate, the

01:07:41 --> 01:07:42

seer of the prophet

01:07:42 --> 01:07:43

in their everyday life.

01:07:44 --> 01:07:46

So they have a community and the community

01:07:46 --> 01:07:48

revolves around whatever,

01:07:48 --> 01:07:50

you know, that time of the year that

01:07:50 --> 01:07:52

is happening. So for example, this whole month,

01:07:52 --> 01:07:53

there will be,

01:07:54 --> 01:07:56

not just one molot a day, but there

01:07:56 --> 01:07:58

will be multiple molot. Yep. So that it

01:07:58 --> 01:07:59

it will be a continual,

01:08:02 --> 01:08:03

you know, entrenchment

01:08:03 --> 01:08:06

and infusion of of, you know,

01:08:06 --> 01:08:07

singing and and,

01:08:08 --> 01:08:09

and reciting,

01:08:09 --> 01:08:10

the,

01:08:11 --> 01:08:13

and the, you know, and these,

01:08:14 --> 01:08:15

these kind of,

01:08:16 --> 01:08:16

traditions,

01:08:17 --> 01:08:18

traditional, like,

01:08:20 --> 01:08:21

poems and things like that that have been

01:08:21 --> 01:08:23

passed down to the tradition. When you say,

01:08:24 --> 01:08:25

are you talking about

01:08:26 --> 01:08:27

can you tell us, like, what does that

01:08:27 --> 01:08:29

even mean? What is the sitting like? What

01:08:29 --> 01:08:31

are they saying? What are they reading for

01:08:31 --> 01:08:33

someone doesn't under may may not know what

01:08:33 --> 01:08:36

that means? Yeah. So most of it goes

01:08:36 --> 01:08:36

back

01:08:37 --> 01:08:37

to,

01:08:38 --> 01:08:39

eyes of the Quran,

01:08:40 --> 01:08:42

goes back to the hadith of the problem

01:08:42 --> 01:08:44

prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. Or it

01:08:44 --> 01:08:45

goes back to that of,

01:08:47 --> 01:08:48

you know, the first

01:08:48 --> 01:08:49

the first people, we would say, like the

01:08:49 --> 01:08:52

lovers, the Sahaba Mhmm. And the tradition that

01:08:52 --> 01:08:53

has been passed down and,

01:08:54 --> 01:08:56

and from the beginning all the way till

01:08:56 --> 01:08:58

till today. So it's a recitation

01:08:59 --> 01:09:02

of some verses. It's a recitation of

01:09:02 --> 01:09:03

some

01:09:03 --> 01:09:05

description of the prophet, peace be upon him,

01:09:06 --> 01:09:06

and it's

01:09:07 --> 01:09:10

a recitation of some Sira of the prophet,

01:09:10 --> 01:09:11

peace be upon him.

01:09:11 --> 01:09:13

And so in that, there's a little bit

01:09:13 --> 01:09:14

of everything that,

01:09:15 --> 01:09:18

Sheikh Ahmed just talked about. He mentioned 5

01:09:18 --> 01:09:18

things

01:09:19 --> 01:09:21

to attain the madhafah of the prophet, sallallahu

01:09:21 --> 01:09:22

alaihi wa sallam, and this is what's saying

01:09:22 --> 01:09:23

Muhammad Al-'Alul

01:09:23 --> 01:09:24

Malik he called.

01:09:25 --> 01:09:27

Mhmm. And he said it's his Sira, which

01:09:27 --> 01:09:30

is his biography, his Shama'il, his physical

01:09:31 --> 01:09:32

description, and his characteristics,

01:09:34 --> 01:09:35

personality personal characteristics.

01:09:37 --> 01:09:38

Or sorry. For,

01:09:39 --> 01:09:40

the proofs of his prophethood.

01:09:40 --> 01:09:41

No.

01:09:41 --> 01:09:42

Number 4,

01:09:43 --> 01:09:45

how is he unique to other prophets?

01:09:47 --> 01:09:49

And then lastly, the the

01:09:49 --> 01:09:49

virtues

01:09:50 --> 01:09:51

of,

01:09:51 --> 01:09:54

the virtues of the prophet himself, the virtues

01:09:54 --> 01:09:55

of

01:09:55 --> 01:09:57

following his sunnah, etcetera.

01:09:57 --> 01:10:00

And his superiority over other. And his superiority

01:10:00 --> 01:10:03

over other. And No. And so would you

01:10:04 --> 01:10:05

would it be accurate to say,

01:10:06 --> 01:10:07

that

01:10:07 --> 01:10:10

a moored gathering is supposed to put all

01:10:10 --> 01:10:11

this together

01:10:12 --> 01:10:13

in a single gathering

01:10:14 --> 01:10:14

and possibly

01:10:15 --> 01:10:18

even an enjoyable gathering because it's put into

01:10:18 --> 01:10:18

verse

01:10:19 --> 01:10:20

that can be sung.

01:10:20 --> 01:10:22

And the salawat and the prophet are done

01:10:22 --> 01:10:24

through the chorus of those verses. Is that

01:10:24 --> 01:10:26

a fair assessment of how Absolutely. Of what

01:10:26 --> 01:10:28

a mawat is? And the beauty of the,

01:10:28 --> 01:10:30

you know, the the rhythm and it gets

01:10:30 --> 01:10:33

stuck into your head. Mhmm. And, you know,

01:10:33 --> 01:10:34

it's like that,

01:10:34 --> 01:10:36

you know, that tune that can't get out

01:10:36 --> 01:10:37

and just continually

01:10:38 --> 01:10:40

goes through your, you know, goes through your

01:10:40 --> 01:10:41

mind. So

01:10:42 --> 01:10:43

Shagham, do you think it's fair to say

01:10:43 --> 01:10:46

that it's a pedagogical method? I mean, the

01:10:46 --> 01:10:47

other day,

01:10:47 --> 01:10:49

I had one of my kids

01:10:50 --> 01:10:52

singing a song about the periodic table, another

01:10:52 --> 01:10:55

one singing a song about the Spanish alphabet.

01:10:56 --> 01:11:00

Right? So these are pedagogical methods, techniques. Yeah.

01:11:00 --> 01:11:02

Yes. Right? Like, who wants to sit there

01:11:02 --> 01:11:04

and memorize a periodic table? But if you're

01:11:04 --> 01:11:05

gonna give me a song,

01:11:05 --> 01:11:07

right, and I'm just gonna replay it over

01:11:07 --> 01:11:09

and over, It's gonna stick in my head.

01:11:09 --> 01:11:11

Yeah. So is it fair to say that

01:11:11 --> 01:11:13

these mawalids are educational

01:11:14 --> 01:11:16

and they're pedagogical methods

01:11:16 --> 01:11:18

to to make it easy, make it go

01:11:18 --> 01:11:20

down easy. Right? 100%. And it's also it

01:11:20 --> 01:11:22

also does a foundational

01:11:23 --> 01:11:26

understanding of of of of of that child

01:11:26 --> 01:11:29

about who he is trying to emulate. Yeah.

01:11:29 --> 01:11:32

So and that my only feedback here is

01:11:32 --> 01:11:34

that I think, you know, my my dear

01:11:34 --> 01:11:36

friend Sheikh Abdullah Misra has written that Sira

01:11:36 --> 01:11:38

song. Right? He's a really good friend of

01:11:38 --> 01:11:40

mine. Yeah. Right? We almost chat, like, every

01:11:40 --> 01:11:41

other day. And we were, you know, we're

01:11:41 --> 01:11:43

talking about various things, and I think that's

01:11:43 --> 01:11:45

where he said, I need to bring a

01:11:45 --> 01:11:48

Sera concise song that can be sung for

01:11:48 --> 01:11:50

English because that it's not it's not realistic

01:11:50 --> 01:11:52

to expect every Muslim living in America to

01:11:52 --> 01:11:54

learn Arabic. Yeah. But the we must now

01:11:54 --> 01:11:55

translate,

01:11:55 --> 01:11:59

for example, aqida as a salahiyyah. Right? That

01:11:59 --> 01:12:02

that was written and gifted to Salahuddin Ayubi,

01:12:02 --> 01:12:03

and then it was taught to children who

01:12:03 --> 01:12:06

were 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. Mhmm. Right?

01:12:06 --> 01:12:08

It's really funny today you have certain that

01:12:08 --> 01:12:10

will teach this Aqida,

01:12:11 --> 01:12:13

for people who are in their thirties, and

01:12:13 --> 01:12:14

they will come back to me and they're

01:12:14 --> 01:12:16

like, oh, you know, I did this special

01:12:17 --> 01:12:17

Aqida

01:12:18 --> 01:12:18

text Allahu

01:12:19 --> 01:12:20

Akbar

01:12:20 --> 01:12:22

and I'm like that's for 8 year olds.

01:12:22 --> 01:12:23

Yeah. Yeah. What what do you what do

01:12:23 --> 01:12:25

you want to? Because it's also marketing. That

01:12:25 --> 01:12:28

Mahad is that institute is marketing themselves as

01:12:28 --> 01:12:30

like I'm doing something

01:12:30 --> 01:12:32

that nobody has done and I'm gonna teach

01:12:32 --> 01:12:34

you this like, you know, and and you're

01:12:34 --> 01:12:35

gonna be like Allah

01:12:36 --> 01:12:38

You Allah. This is the

01:12:39 --> 01:12:41

I'm like, that's the

01:12:41 --> 01:12:43

Yeah. That's about it.

01:12:44 --> 01:12:45

You know, I was thinking that in the

01:12:45 --> 01:12:47

history of the the the this,

01:12:48 --> 01:12:49

the olema

01:12:49 --> 01:12:50

began

01:12:50 --> 01:12:51

by simply

01:12:52 --> 01:12:54

reciting the siddiq. Somebody asked when did the

01:12:54 --> 01:12:56

first millet happen and where.

01:12:57 --> 01:13:00

We can't necessarily say because it started off

01:13:00 --> 01:13:02

as a mere reading of the and

01:13:04 --> 01:13:04

in

01:13:06 --> 01:13:06

the public.

01:13:08 --> 01:13:08

And

01:13:09 --> 01:13:10

when we say in the public,

01:13:11 --> 01:13:13

Masajid used to have huge courtyards

01:13:14 --> 01:13:17

and then the the covered space just like

01:13:17 --> 01:13:18

Masjid al Nabi.

01:13:18 --> 01:13:21

Aleema would have chairs or seats at pillars

01:13:21 --> 01:13:23

and they would recite and they would read.

01:13:23 --> 01:13:25

So it began as classes only.

01:13:27 --> 01:13:28

After a while,

01:13:28 --> 01:13:31

they started to put the to verse

01:13:31 --> 01:13:32

because still people

01:13:33 --> 01:13:35

would would the the melal would occur.

01:13:36 --> 01:13:39

The boredom would occur just hearing a lesson.

01:13:39 --> 01:13:41

So they started putting it to verse and

01:13:41 --> 01:13:42

reciting different

01:13:43 --> 01:13:43

poetry,

01:13:44 --> 01:13:47

summarizing the same story of the prophet's life

01:13:48 --> 01:13:50

and his description and the major events that

01:13:50 --> 01:13:51

happened and his teachings, etcetera.

01:13:52 --> 01:13:55

And that developed after that. Okay. So you're

01:13:55 --> 01:13:57

still passive though. You're listening to a poem

01:13:57 --> 01:13:59

and that's in their world, they love that.

01:13:59 --> 01:13:59

Right?

01:14:00 --> 01:14:03

Couple generations later, it's still passive. So he's

01:14:03 --> 01:14:04

just sitting and he's not,

01:14:05 --> 01:14:07

doing anything except listening.

01:14:07 --> 01:14:09

So the they put the solavat

01:14:10 --> 01:14:10

in the middle

01:14:11 --> 01:14:13

so that you could recite a line of

01:14:13 --> 01:14:15

poetry that is what we would now call

01:14:15 --> 01:14:17

a chorus in the middle

01:14:18 --> 01:14:20

and so on and so forth, all for

01:14:20 --> 01:14:21

the sake of

01:14:21 --> 01:14:24

getting the message across. If you look at

01:14:24 --> 01:14:25

educational methods

01:14:25 --> 01:14:27

and one of the olema isham,

01:14:28 --> 01:14:30

he he spoke about how

01:14:31 --> 01:14:31

the mutun

01:14:32 --> 01:14:32

differ

01:14:33 --> 01:14:35

and the texts that we study, the writing

01:14:35 --> 01:14:36

style differs

01:14:37 --> 01:14:38

from one generation to the next.

01:14:39 --> 01:14:42

Until today, we have totally different textbooks. You

01:14:42 --> 01:14:44

write a PhD thesis. It's totally different than,

01:14:44 --> 01:14:45

let's say, on,

01:14:47 --> 01:14:49

Johar Sito, Johar Sito, Johar Sito.

01:14:50 --> 01:14:51

Right?

01:14:51 --> 01:14:52

And so

01:14:53 --> 01:14:56

in their time, there was a there was

01:14:56 --> 01:14:56

a.

01:14:57 --> 01:14:59

Then they had the didactic poem written in

01:14:59 --> 01:15:00

the.

01:15:00 --> 01:15:03

Right? Today, if you hand in

01:15:03 --> 01:15:05

or a as a PhD, it's gonna be

01:15:05 --> 01:15:06

rejected. Right?

01:15:07 --> 01:15:09

So what we're noticing here is that the

01:15:09 --> 01:15:12

way to get the message across differs every

01:15:12 --> 01:15:12

generation.

01:15:13 --> 01:15:13

Mhmm.

01:15:14 --> 01:15:17

And it's simply that over time, the way

01:15:17 --> 01:15:18

to get a message across to people

01:15:19 --> 01:15:19

is

01:15:20 --> 01:15:22

that that's what they're trying to do with

01:15:22 --> 01:15:24

the moment, the method of getting the same

01:15:24 --> 01:15:26

concept across to people.

01:15:26 --> 01:15:29

Right? And I think that's really how simple

01:15:29 --> 01:15:29

it is.

01:15:30 --> 01:15:31

And and again, today,

01:15:31 --> 01:15:34

the most powerful way to get across the

01:15:34 --> 01:15:34

message,

01:15:38 --> 01:15:40

but the most powerful way to get the

01:15:40 --> 01:15:42

message across is,

01:15:42 --> 01:15:45

cinema and film medium. Subhanallah. And as Muslims,

01:15:45 --> 01:15:47

we're really behind on them. Yeah. We're really

01:15:47 --> 01:15:50

behind them. Yeah. I remember meeting,

01:15:51 --> 01:15:53

you know, one of my my teachers at

01:15:53 --> 01:15:55

that time, and then he took me. Obviously,

01:15:55 --> 01:15:57

I was not at that caliber at that

01:15:57 --> 01:15:59

time where I'm not no caliber at all

01:15:59 --> 01:16:00

today, but, like, the sheikh is like, let's

01:16:00 --> 01:16:02

go and meet Sheikh Salman Alaudam. Right? He

01:16:02 --> 01:16:04

is one of the, you know I again,

01:16:04 --> 01:16:06

like, he's one of the most prominent speakers

01:16:06 --> 01:16:09

who, you know, went from being extreme into

01:16:09 --> 01:16:10

a more middle path and then started sitting

01:16:10 --> 01:16:12

with. And he said

01:16:12 --> 01:16:13

and all of that, and he's a very

01:16:13 --> 01:16:15

knowledgeable person. And

01:16:15 --> 01:16:17

he was on the board

01:16:17 --> 01:16:21

of that series that was, Omar series

01:16:21 --> 01:16:24

from, Dubai, if you remember the Omar series

01:16:24 --> 01:16:26

that came out on YouTube. Yeah. What did

01:16:26 --> 01:16:28

he say about it? So he said that,

01:16:28 --> 01:16:28

you know what?

01:16:29 --> 01:16:31

They got such a pushback from within the

01:16:31 --> 01:16:32

Muslim community.

01:16:32 --> 01:16:34

How could you be on sitting with these

01:16:35 --> 01:16:35

and

01:16:36 --> 01:16:37

these are like and he's like, listen.

01:16:38 --> 01:16:39

This is the dua of the time. If

01:16:39 --> 01:16:41

we can create a

01:16:41 --> 01:16:44

focused on Omar and through which teach Sira

01:16:44 --> 01:16:46

and I tell people, you wanna see Sira

01:16:46 --> 01:16:46

lived,

01:16:47 --> 01:16:50

go and watch the Omar series with subtitles.

01:16:50 --> 01:16:50

SubhanAllah.

01:16:51 --> 01:16:53

It it it's it's amazing. Your kids will

01:16:53 --> 01:16:56

visualize the scene of Tata. They will visualize

01:16:56 --> 01:16:58

these because it it that's how they are

01:16:58 --> 01:17:01

stimulated. Yeah. So Maya and Nasheed and poetry

01:17:01 --> 01:17:03

today was supposed to be stimulating but we

01:17:03 --> 01:17:06

have such high level of stimulation that that

01:17:06 --> 01:17:09

becomes now boring for people. Mhmm. Right? Mhmm.

01:17:09 --> 01:17:11

Yeah. Yeah. My my point that I was

01:17:11 --> 01:17:13

gonna say too is that, you know, a

01:17:13 --> 01:17:14

melody, it transcends generations.

01:17:15 --> 01:17:17

Yes. So I think language changes and meanings

01:17:18 --> 01:17:19

change as time goes.

01:17:20 --> 01:17:22

But the way to preserve that is by

01:17:22 --> 01:17:25

through the melody. Mhmm. And the child will

01:17:25 --> 01:17:26

remember that when he's young,

01:17:27 --> 01:17:30

and the the language of that then will

01:17:30 --> 01:17:32

be introduced to him slowly.

01:17:33 --> 01:17:33

Mhmm.

01:17:33 --> 01:17:35

And I think it's not realistic to expect

01:17:35 --> 01:17:36

everyone to

01:17:37 --> 01:17:39

to understand Arabic. I mean, even somebody who

01:17:39 --> 01:17:40

studied it for many years,

01:17:41 --> 01:17:42

it it still is gonna be a struggle

01:17:42 --> 01:17:44

for it to become the language of his

01:17:44 --> 01:17:46

heart. Mhmm. So I think to reiterate, like,

01:17:46 --> 01:17:48

his point about, you know, you you know,

01:17:48 --> 01:17:50

making things in English, I think, is very,

01:17:50 --> 01:17:52

very important, and we need to have,

01:17:52 --> 01:17:55

inspiration and be inspired as Muslims

01:17:55 --> 01:17:56

and begin to,

01:17:57 --> 01:17:59

you know, as these things are are happening

01:17:59 --> 01:18:00

in our life and as we're reading and

01:18:00 --> 01:18:01

as we're being inspired,

01:18:02 --> 01:18:03

from the hand of Allah,

01:18:04 --> 01:18:06

you know, taking these things that have been

01:18:06 --> 01:18:08

transmitted and and these things that have been

01:18:08 --> 01:18:10

given to us and articulating them in a

01:18:10 --> 01:18:12

way that is, you know,

01:18:13 --> 01:18:16

speaking directly into the hearts of, you

01:18:16 --> 01:18:19

know, the of the public, the the general

01:18:19 --> 01:18:19

public,

01:18:20 --> 01:18:21

you know, and speaking, you know,

01:18:22 --> 01:18:24

directly into the mind even of somebody who

01:18:24 --> 01:18:27

maybe doesn't that doesn't even necessarily understand who

01:18:27 --> 01:18:29

is the prophet Muhammad SAW. When I got

01:18:29 --> 01:18:31

to the airport, the woman said, what is

01:18:31 --> 01:18:33

your purpose of your visit? I said, it's

01:18:33 --> 01:18:34

to celebrate the birth of the prophet.

01:18:35 --> 01:18:36

She said, what you know, what does this

01:18:36 --> 01:18:38

mean? And I explained it to her. And

01:18:38 --> 01:18:39

she said, wow. That sounds like a really

01:18:39 --> 01:18:42

amazing, you know, experience and celebration.

01:18:42 --> 01:18:44

And I, you know, and I said, yeah.

01:18:44 --> 01:18:46

It is. You know? And it's all it's

01:18:46 --> 01:18:48

happening all over America.

01:18:48 --> 01:18:50

And it the In other words, you're missing

01:18:50 --> 01:18:51

out if you're not a part of it.

01:18:51 --> 01:18:52

You know?

01:18:52 --> 01:18:54

And what what about this what you said

01:18:54 --> 01:18:55

is,

01:18:55 --> 01:18:58

Matt, the the melody is far more moving.

01:18:58 --> 01:19:00

It's much more powerful than what you think.

01:19:00 --> 01:19:01

Yeah. Far more powerful than words. Because it

01:19:01 --> 01:19:03

transcends. Even somebody

01:19:03 --> 01:19:05

who can listen to it,

01:19:05 --> 01:19:07

even not even understanding the words can get

01:19:07 --> 01:19:09

it and be into it Mhmm. And begin

01:19:09 --> 01:19:11

to, like you said, like, shifting the head

01:19:11 --> 01:19:13

and and moving of the limbs and things

01:19:13 --> 01:19:15

like this where the heart is beginning to

01:19:15 --> 01:19:17

be moved and not even understanding. I mean,

01:19:17 --> 01:19:19

how many of us listen to the Quran

01:19:19 --> 01:19:21

for the first time? I heard the Quran

01:19:21 --> 01:19:22

for the first time when I was 27

01:19:22 --> 01:19:24

years old. Subhanallah. And the the the the

01:19:24 --> 01:19:26

and then I heard it for the first

01:19:26 --> 01:19:27

time, you know,

01:19:27 --> 01:19:30

probably in the city of Konya in in

01:19:30 --> 01:19:30

Turkey.

01:19:31 --> 01:19:31

And,

01:19:32 --> 01:19:33

you know, just listening for this time, I

01:19:33 --> 01:19:35

stopped, and I said, what is this? Sabah.

01:19:35 --> 01:19:36

Is this the call to prayer? I said,

01:19:36 --> 01:19:38

like, where's the where's the place where people

01:19:38 --> 01:19:40

pray? I wanna go. Sabah. And then you

01:19:40 --> 01:19:41

grab these doors that are so heavy that

01:19:41 --> 01:19:43

are, you know, these, like, almost like their

01:19:43 --> 01:19:45

skins or something like this. And you you

01:19:45 --> 01:19:47

peel it back and you kinda walk in,

01:19:47 --> 01:19:49

and and it's just you know, there's just

01:19:49 --> 01:19:50

something that is just drawing you. And what

01:19:50 --> 01:19:52

was it? It was that melody and that

01:19:52 --> 01:19:55

beautiful tone because there was no understanding of

01:19:55 --> 01:19:55

the word.

01:19:56 --> 01:19:59

You notice the Quran cannot be recited monotonously.

01:19:59 --> 01:20:02

Yeah. The rules of Tajweed and Med will

01:20:02 --> 01:20:04

not allow for it. Yeah. And somebody could

01:20:04 --> 01:20:05

be listening to what Aya, and it's telling

01:20:05 --> 01:20:08

him that, you know, literally, it's talking about

01:20:08 --> 01:20:10

going to *, and he, you know, he's

01:20:10 --> 01:20:11

smiling because he It's a problem. It's just

01:20:11 --> 01:20:12

beautiful.

01:20:12 --> 01:20:14

Sabrina. And that that's the that's the level

01:20:14 --> 01:20:16

of the, you know, the eloquency of, of

01:20:16 --> 01:20:17

of, you know, the.

01:20:18 --> 01:20:20

Sabrina. No. The melody is something Allah created

01:20:20 --> 01:20:22

that it enters the heart, and it has

01:20:22 --> 01:20:25

to be used because our enemies are using

01:20:25 --> 01:20:27

it. Is not Iblis using it

01:20:27 --> 01:20:28

nonstop?

01:20:28 --> 01:20:29

Right?

01:20:29 --> 01:20:32

And is it is it lawful? That's the

01:20:32 --> 01:20:33

first question we have to ask because not

01:20:33 --> 01:20:36

every date technique that Iblis uses we can

01:20:36 --> 01:20:38

use. Right? Is it lawful to have melody

01:20:38 --> 01:20:39

in the time of the prophet, sallallahu alaihi

01:20:39 --> 01:20:41

salam, Hassam bin Thevet?

01:20:41 --> 01:20:44

Is it imagined that Hashem bin Thevet used

01:20:44 --> 01:20:46

to recite his poems monotonously,

01:20:47 --> 01:20:48

or did he use the ancient melodies?

01:20:49 --> 01:20:51

Right? And they had so many melodies.

01:20:52 --> 01:20:54

All their melodies were derived from,

01:20:54 --> 01:20:57

riding with camels for hours at night doing

01:20:57 --> 01:21:00

nothing. Right? And certain melodies would And that's

01:21:00 --> 01:21:02

what they would do. Camels Sure.

01:21:03 --> 01:21:05

Go ahead, Sheikh Ahmed. Certain melodies would actually

01:21:05 --> 01:21:06

get the camel

01:21:07 --> 01:21:09

move walking faster. Yeah. The prophet said to

01:21:09 --> 01:21:11

the sahaba, change your melody because the camels

01:21:11 --> 01:21:13

are getting excited and there are women in

01:21:13 --> 01:21:15

the camel. Amazing, SubhanAllah. So take it take

01:21:15 --> 01:21:16

it easy.

01:21:16 --> 01:21:18

SubhanAllah. So so the

01:21:19 --> 01:21:22

the the the the beasts are moved by

01:21:22 --> 01:21:24

it. You cannot a human being is not

01:21:24 --> 01:21:26

a human being even more moved? Because you're

01:21:26 --> 01:21:29

you're mixing melody and words now. Right? And

01:21:29 --> 01:21:30

higher order meanings.

01:21:31 --> 01:21:33

Higher order meanings like meeting

01:21:33 --> 01:21:34

the messenger

01:21:35 --> 01:21:35

at

01:21:36 --> 01:21:37

the.

01:21:38 --> 01:21:40

Right? I can tell you that. I could

01:21:40 --> 01:21:41

put it in a melody. Which one is

01:21:41 --> 01:21:44

gonna actually totally take you there? It's the

01:21:44 --> 01:21:46

melody. No doubt about it. It's gonna totally

01:21:46 --> 01:21:47

It's gonna be the first thing. It's gonna

01:21:47 --> 01:21:49

be first thing. It's gonna take you there.

01:21:49 --> 01:21:50

And,

01:21:50 --> 01:21:52

you know, they talk about

01:21:52 --> 01:21:54

when they talk about the standing for the

01:21:54 --> 01:21:56

prophet, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, this is also

01:21:56 --> 01:21:58

if we're gonna be legal, it's differed upon.

01:21:58 --> 01:22:00

No doubt about it. No discussion there. But

01:22:00 --> 01:22:02

My masha'id did not do it. Just They

01:22:02 --> 01:22:03

didn't do it. For you. Yeah. They didn't

01:22:03 --> 01:22:04

do it in Assaf. They didn't do it

01:22:04 --> 01:22:05

in Assaf. Yeah.

01:22:05 --> 01:22:08

They did not allow it, Assaf. And then

01:22:08 --> 01:22:08

Shoaafa

01:22:08 --> 01:22:11

have some debates on it? Yeah. They do.

01:22:11 --> 01:22:12

Yeah. Yeah. But

01:22:12 --> 01:22:13

what

01:22:13 --> 01:22:15

the those when you when people see that,

01:22:15 --> 01:22:17

what is the purpose of that is you

01:22:17 --> 01:22:18

one day will see Rasulullah

01:22:19 --> 01:22:19

SAW.

01:22:20 --> 01:22:20

Beautiful.

01:22:21 --> 01:22:22

Do not we have

01:22:23 --> 01:22:26

little every Islamic school in Dhul Hijjah? Alright.

01:22:26 --> 01:22:29

Let's build a little cardboard Kaaba. Let's put

01:22:29 --> 01:22:32

on Haram, and let's pretend we're doing tawaf,

01:22:32 --> 01:22:34

and then we're gonna do sa'ih, and then

01:22:34 --> 01:22:36

we're gonna go over there. That's. That's Arafa.

01:22:36 --> 01:22:37

Right? I don't know. And they were, like,

01:22:37 --> 01:22:40

in a gym or something. Right? Mhmm. Because

01:22:40 --> 01:22:43

when you enact something, it touches your heart.

01:22:43 --> 01:22:45

Someday, you're gonna meet the messenger of Allah

01:22:45 --> 01:22:48

at the. What would that mess what would

01:22:48 --> 01:22:49

that meeting be like?

01:22:49 --> 01:22:52

And that's why they established the qiyam

01:22:52 --> 01:22:55

when the salah and the prophet is recited.

01:22:55 --> 01:22:56

It's like almost

01:22:56 --> 01:22:59

a preparation for that. Like, if your physical

01:22:59 --> 01:23:02

if your spiritual heart is not moving, then

01:23:02 --> 01:23:03

at least be moved physically.

01:23:03 --> 01:23:06

Yeah. Exactly. If your heart's not moving first

01:23:06 --> 01:23:07

of all, there are many,

01:23:07 --> 01:23:09

reasons they do the. First of all, it

01:23:09 --> 01:23:11

changes things up. Some of these medalles, 2

01:23:11 --> 01:23:13

hours. Yeah. You need to stretch at some

01:23:13 --> 01:23:15

point. Right? So that's one reason.

01:23:16 --> 01:23:16

2nd reason,

01:23:17 --> 01:23:19

wake up your attention. Right? You may have

01:23:19 --> 01:23:21

been drifted off. 3rd reason that is most

01:23:21 --> 01:23:23

profound, someday you're gonna meet.

01:23:25 --> 01:23:26

That's that's

01:23:26 --> 01:23:28

imagine what that meeting is gonna be like.

01:23:28 --> 01:23:29

Right? Yeah.

01:23:29 --> 01:23:30

You know?

01:23:30 --> 01:23:32

Right. So that's what the You know, you

01:23:32 --> 01:23:34

guys were talking about this this mute, you

01:23:34 --> 01:23:34

know,

01:23:35 --> 01:23:36

sound and stuff like that, and I remembered

01:23:36 --> 01:23:39

I had posted something. Yeah. And this is

01:23:39 --> 01:23:40

like when I was doing the class for

01:23:40 --> 01:23:42

teenagers, and they were like,

01:23:43 --> 01:23:45

you know, we just wanna listen to all

01:23:45 --> 01:23:47

of this music. Like, we just wanna listen

01:23:47 --> 01:23:49

to that. Right? And then it is really

01:23:49 --> 01:23:50

something. There's something called art of sound and

01:23:50 --> 01:23:53

there's a hierarchy of sound. Right? And this

01:23:53 --> 01:23:55

is research paper and this was shared to

01:23:55 --> 01:23:56

me by a musician.

01:23:57 --> 01:23:58

So a musician shared this to me. So

01:23:58 --> 01:23:59

he said, for example,

01:24:00 --> 01:24:01

the highest form

01:24:02 --> 01:24:04

of of sound that moves

01:24:05 --> 01:24:07

the soul is the revelation.

01:24:07 --> 01:24:08

It's the subhanallah.

01:24:09 --> 01:24:11

Right? The recitation of the Quran, nothing moves

01:24:11 --> 01:24:14

the heart even people who don't understand,

01:24:14 --> 01:24:16

they're like, wait a minute. What is this?

01:24:16 --> 01:24:18

This is so unique. I just wanna know.

01:24:18 --> 01:24:21

Right? The second thing is what you just

01:24:21 --> 01:24:22

mentioned, CD, Adan.

01:24:23 --> 01:24:25

Adan is right below the Quran.

01:24:26 --> 01:24:28

So Adan and the recitation

01:24:28 --> 01:24:30

that we do during the prayers,

01:24:30 --> 01:24:33

those are really moving. That's the second level.

01:24:33 --> 01:24:36

Yeah. Level number 3 is something called traditional

01:24:36 --> 01:24:39

Dhikr, whether you wanna do a Jannahi, whether

01:24:39 --> 01:24:41

you wanna do it together, chanting, all of

01:24:41 --> 01:24:45

those, adkab, asbakna, asbakna, asbakna, al you know,

01:24:45 --> 01:24:47

all of that creates this rhythm and that's

01:24:47 --> 01:24:50

the third level of sound in terms of

01:24:50 --> 01:24:53

our positive effect to our heart. The third

01:24:53 --> 01:24:56

is the 4th is devotional poetry and the

01:24:56 --> 01:24:56

sheets.

01:24:58 --> 01:25:00

3rd is devotional poetry and the sheets, whatever.

01:25:02 --> 01:25:04

Then historical poetry and storytelling,

01:25:04 --> 01:25:06

this is neither good or bad. This is

01:25:06 --> 01:25:08

good, but, you know, you can capture all

01:25:08 --> 01:25:08

of the the

01:25:09 --> 01:25:11

of of the the Kaaba in in Yemen,

01:25:11 --> 01:25:14

the Kaaba in in Sarudia, and these they

01:25:14 --> 01:25:16

they, you know, Hashem Mari is like this

01:25:16 --> 01:25:18

and when he takes out his hand, like,

01:25:18 --> 01:25:20

they they are praising their Kaaba.

01:25:20 --> 01:25:22

Then the next ones is which we have

01:25:22 --> 01:25:25

to be worried about. Number 1, the next

01:25:25 --> 01:25:28

one is is is is is hard metal

01:25:28 --> 01:25:29

instrumental music.

01:25:30 --> 01:25:32

That's demonic in its nature. Yeah. Then you

01:25:32 --> 01:25:33

have music

01:25:33 --> 01:25:35

with historic so do you have music with

01:25:35 --> 01:25:38

historical, political, or serious messages?

01:25:38 --> 01:25:40

So there's music that is created, but the

01:25:40 --> 01:25:42

purpose of that music is they're trying to

01:25:42 --> 01:25:44

get a they're trying to move a nation

01:25:44 --> 01:25:46

or they're trying to move some, like, all

01:25:46 --> 01:25:48

these Like nationalist stuff. Pakistan,

01:25:49 --> 01:25:51

and it's in pro in Jansan music and

01:25:51 --> 01:25:53

stuff like that, that is happening. The last

01:25:53 --> 01:25:55

2 which are something we should avoid all

01:25:55 --> 01:25:59

the time which is, which is music that

01:25:59 --> 01:26:00

is driven

01:26:01 --> 01:26:03

in the rhythm and in the text and

01:26:03 --> 01:26:05

in the lyrics to create emotions in you,

01:26:06 --> 01:26:08

I. E. Emotions of love, hate, sadness,

01:26:09 --> 01:26:11

and last one is the hedonistic emotions that

01:26:11 --> 01:26:14

are created. So if we understand this, so

01:26:14 --> 01:26:15

we have a variance.

01:26:15 --> 01:26:16

Now when we come and talk to a

01:26:16 --> 01:26:19

person that he's at a hedonistic level, level

01:26:19 --> 01:26:21

8, you come and tell him I want

01:26:21 --> 01:26:23

you to move to level 1 Quran. SubhanAllah,

01:26:23 --> 01:26:25

it's not gonna work. It's not gonna work.

01:26:25 --> 01:26:27

You guys It could not, maybe it won't

01:26:27 --> 01:26:29

work. Yeah. It would, it would, it could

01:26:29 --> 01:26:31

work, Allahu'ala. Yeah. But it's it's if he's

01:26:32 --> 01:26:34

drenched in it, like he's he's

01:26:34 --> 01:26:36

fully involved in it, and you say let's

01:26:36 --> 01:26:38

leave you from hedonistic and we're gonna take

01:26:38 --> 01:26:40

you to the highest form of spiritual rhythm.

01:26:40 --> 01:26:42

Yeah. Yeah. He's gonna be like, wait a

01:26:42 --> 01:26:44

minute. I don't wanna do that. It's odd.

01:26:44 --> 01:26:46

His body is not used to it. Right?

01:26:46 --> 01:26:47

It's just like you go to the gym

01:26:47 --> 01:26:50

and lifting £300 of bench press. Right? Not

01:26:50 --> 01:26:52

gonna happen. Right? It's it's not gonna happen

01:26:52 --> 01:26:53

for me. It's not it's not you can

01:26:53 --> 01:26:56

get there. It won't be sustained though. Yeah.

01:26:56 --> 01:26:57

It won't be sustained. That means I would

01:26:57 --> 01:26:59

need to lift £20.

01:26:59 --> 01:27:01

That means we'll have to tell him, okay.

01:27:01 --> 01:27:02

Can you one day a week let go

01:27:02 --> 01:27:04

of that music? 2 days a week let

01:27:04 --> 01:27:06

go. And then we have to help those

01:27:06 --> 01:27:08

people Yeah. Out of that into the more

01:27:08 --> 01:27:11

spiritual realm, and these these these gatherings are

01:27:11 --> 01:27:14

a great way of bringing those people that

01:27:14 --> 01:27:16

are lost in that into wait a minute.

01:27:16 --> 01:27:18

I can fight to this. This is pretty

01:27:18 --> 01:27:19

good.

01:27:19 --> 01:27:21

Right? It's a 100% what you're saying to

01:27:21 --> 01:27:23

make so much sense. It's not saying that

01:27:23 --> 01:27:25

the Quran will not have an impact.

01:27:25 --> 01:27:26

But

01:27:26 --> 01:27:30

from a pragmatic standpoint, if someone is entrenched

01:27:30 --> 01:27:30

in music

01:27:32 --> 01:27:35

okay. To completely strip it away from him

01:27:35 --> 01:27:36

and say only take the Quran,

01:27:36 --> 01:27:37

it

01:27:37 --> 01:27:39

likely, from what we've seen, they'll have a

01:27:39 --> 01:27:41

bounce back, severe bounce back.

01:27:42 --> 01:27:43

But if you were to allow for him

01:27:43 --> 01:27:45

a gap there where he could have something

01:27:45 --> 01:27:45

that's

01:27:46 --> 01:27:46

lawful,

01:27:47 --> 01:27:50

even at the edge of lawfulness. Right? Sure.

01:27:50 --> 01:27:51

At the edge of lawfulness.

01:27:53 --> 01:27:54

Type of Yes. Yes. Nasheeds.

01:27:55 --> 01:27:59

It's gonna be an easier transition from what

01:27:59 --> 01:28:00

many people have experienced.

01:28:01 --> 01:28:03

Right? Now let me ask a question. This

01:28:03 --> 01:28:05

question for Sheikh Hasidullah has come in from

01:28:05 --> 01:28:06

YouTube.

01:28:07 --> 01:28:08

The prophet

01:28:09 --> 01:28:10

said do not

01:28:11 --> 01:28:13

overpraise me or, abandon

01:28:14 --> 01:28:16

or the burruta itself says abandon what the

01:28:16 --> 01:28:17

Christians have claimed about their prophet.

01:28:18 --> 01:28:18

And

01:28:19 --> 01:28:21

what about the did not the prophet, peace

01:28:21 --> 01:28:22

be upon him, do not,

01:28:23 --> 01:28:25

overpraise me? Do not treat me as the

01:28:25 --> 01:28:26

Christians treated Jesus? So how

01:28:27 --> 01:28:28

is with these

01:28:29 --> 01:28:29

gatherings,

01:28:30 --> 01:28:32

you said multiple times a week or a

01:28:32 --> 01:28:32

day,

01:28:33 --> 01:28:35

they talk about the prophet, peace be upon

01:28:35 --> 01:28:37

him. How do you answer that question?

01:28:38 --> 01:28:40

I I think the maybe in the context

01:28:40 --> 01:28:41

of what the board is talk what he's

01:28:41 --> 01:28:43

talking about here when he's talking about the

01:28:43 --> 01:28:45

is he's talking about the

01:28:45 --> 01:28:48

of of that they're contributing that part,

01:28:48 --> 01:28:51

the Christians to him. Yes. Because there's another

01:28:51 --> 01:28:52

part of the where he says, like, if

01:28:52 --> 01:28:54

you just drop this, the

01:28:54 --> 01:28:56

like, the way that they're thinking about their,

01:28:57 --> 01:29:00

you know, this prophet, is the same way

01:29:00 --> 01:29:02

that we're thinking about our beloved Muhammad, sallallahu

01:29:02 --> 01:29:03

alaihi wa sallam.

01:29:03 --> 01:29:04

So it's it's

01:29:05 --> 01:29:07

the rendering the prophet divine

01:29:08 --> 01:29:09

is the problem. So let me ask a

01:29:09 --> 01:29:10

question.

01:29:13 --> 01:29:15

Allah and his angels make salawats on the

01:29:15 --> 01:29:16

prophet.

01:29:16 --> 01:29:18

And what that means, the salawat of Allah

01:29:18 --> 01:29:20

is a bestowal of all good

01:29:21 --> 01:29:22

on the prophet, peace be upon.

01:29:22 --> 01:29:23

For

01:29:24 --> 01:29:26

and for us Yeah.

01:29:27 --> 01:29:29

We are taking from that. Yeah. Good. Our

01:29:29 --> 01:29:32

our salaw on the prophet is taking. Yes.

01:29:32 --> 01:29:33

Some said, yes. It is a du'at for

01:29:33 --> 01:29:35

the prophet, peace be upon him, but don't

01:29:35 --> 01:29:37

imagine you're benefiting him. Him. Take this bottle

01:29:37 --> 01:29:39

of water and put it in the Atlantic

01:29:39 --> 01:29:39

Ocean.

01:29:40 --> 01:29:42

Technically, I added to the ocean, but really,

01:29:42 --> 01:29:43

I didn't. Right?

01:29:43 --> 01:29:46

What is all human beings on the face

01:29:46 --> 01:29:48

of the earth making salawats on the prophet?

01:29:48 --> 01:29:49

But Allah has done it once.

01:29:50 --> 01:29:52

If it was only once. But Allah says

01:29:54 --> 01:29:57

constantly, nonstop is Allah bestowing blessings

01:29:58 --> 01:30:00

and all good on the prophet, peace be

01:30:00 --> 01:30:00

upon.

01:30:01 --> 01:30:03

Angels are doing it. How long do the

01:30:03 --> 01:30:04

angels live?

01:30:04 --> 01:30:05

From when they're created until the day of

01:30:05 --> 01:30:07

judgment. Angels don't have lifespans. There's no such

01:30:07 --> 01:30:08

thing as an old angel

01:30:09 --> 01:30:12

in age that can't walk anymore, can't move.

01:30:13 --> 01:30:14

They live from when they're created all the

01:30:14 --> 01:30:17

way until the the Allah just wills that

01:30:17 --> 01:30:18

all the creation will die.

01:30:19 --> 01:30:21

So if they're making those salawats on the

01:30:21 --> 01:30:22

prophet for eons

01:30:24 --> 01:30:27

and we're making salawats on the prophet, salawat,

01:30:27 --> 01:30:30

for a small life, you live say you

01:30:30 --> 01:30:31

live 80 years.

01:30:31 --> 01:30:32

In 80 years,

01:30:33 --> 01:30:35

if you did salawats on the prophet, peace

01:30:35 --> 01:30:37

be upon him, every other day, all day,

01:30:37 --> 01:30:40

which nobody does, that's 40 years of salawats.

01:30:41 --> 01:30:43

Well, there are that are 40000 years old.

01:30:45 --> 01:30:48

So how is it that you've overdone it?

01:30:48 --> 01:30:49

Right?

01:30:49 --> 01:30:51

So Imam Hadad has a beautiful thing. He

01:30:51 --> 01:30:54

said, the only time that a virtue must

01:30:54 --> 01:30:54

stop

01:30:55 --> 01:30:57

is at the location of another virtue.

01:30:59 --> 01:31:01

Salawats and the prophet stops when the obligatory

01:31:01 --> 01:31:02

prayer comes in.

01:31:02 --> 01:31:05

And in the obligatory prayer of salawats, in

01:31:05 --> 01:31:06

the even is salawats,

01:31:06 --> 01:31:08

in the dua after that, then is salawats,

01:31:08 --> 01:31:10

in the tashahu al salawats. So Right?

01:31:12 --> 01:31:14

Memorizing Quran Memorize the Quran must stop

01:31:15 --> 01:31:17

at the prayer. Right? It must stop at

01:31:17 --> 01:31:20

certain things. So a virtue only

01:31:21 --> 01:31:23

it can never be too much. It only

01:31:23 --> 01:31:26

is when it intercedes over another virtue

01:31:26 --> 01:31:28

or, interferes with another obligation.

01:31:29 --> 01:31:32

So if you're on Instagram, listen up. Head

01:31:32 --> 01:31:33

over. Hey, Omer, are we on YouTube this

01:31:33 --> 01:31:35

today or no? Yeah. We have, like, 2

01:31:35 --> 01:31:36

of you. Okay. Good.

01:31:36 --> 01:31:38

Listen. If you're on Instagram and you can't

01:31:38 --> 01:31:40

see all of us, I am with

01:31:40 --> 01:31:42

Sheikh Asadullah Kierley

01:31:43 --> 01:31:46

and Sheikh Ahmed Salim. Sheikh Asadullah is from

01:31:46 --> 01:31:48

Seattle. If you're from the West Coast,

01:31:49 --> 01:31:50

he's gonna be

01:31:50 --> 01:31:52

your imam there. I mean,

01:31:54 --> 01:31:55

from the Abedad of the West.

01:31:56 --> 01:31:57

Inshallah. West Coast.

01:31:57 --> 01:31:59

He's gonna be your,

01:31:59 --> 01:32:01

person to go to if you're in Seattle.

01:32:01 --> 01:32:04

Wasn't it Waleed in Seattle? Yeah. Right? Waleed

01:32:04 --> 01:32:06

was in Seattle and me is he still

01:32:06 --> 01:32:06

there?

01:32:09 --> 01:32:11

When he lives back here. Right? Yeah. So

01:32:11 --> 01:32:12

he was in Seattle. So Sheikh

01:32:13 --> 01:32:15

will be there. Which Masjid are you near?

01:32:16 --> 01:32:17

That Really? Someone wants to bump into you.

01:32:17 --> 01:32:19

Where would they go? Right now, I'm not

01:32:19 --> 01:32:22

actually close to any Masjid. Oh, Ajib. Yeah.

01:32:22 --> 01:32:25

Okay. We're okay. But I'm yeah. We're we're

01:32:25 --> 01:32:26

we're trying to build one up in the

01:32:26 --> 01:32:29

Mount Vernon area, which is actually between the

01:32:29 --> 01:32:31

closest Masjid. You're looking at about 2:2 and

01:32:31 --> 01:32:33

a half hours driving. Oh, so you need

01:32:33 --> 01:32:35

to build your own Masjid. Yeah. I'm a

01:32:35 --> 01:32:37

I'm a big supporter in building a a

01:32:37 --> 01:32:39

public open Masjid for everyone to pray in

01:32:39 --> 01:32:39

because

01:32:40 --> 01:32:42

it attracts foot traffic. You just gotta build

01:32:42 --> 01:32:45

it right. The youth center gym

01:32:45 --> 01:32:47

actually to me takes priority because you can

01:32:47 --> 01:32:50

pray there and have youth activities there. Right?

01:32:51 --> 01:32:52

Like, the gym is amazing, the most important

01:32:52 --> 01:32:54

thing, little kitchenette

01:32:54 --> 01:32:56

area and the mussala, but you also need

01:32:56 --> 01:32:58

a place for classes because if women do

01:32:58 --> 01:32:59

not enter the mussala,

01:33:01 --> 01:33:03

1 week a month, they can only take

01:33:03 --> 01:33:05

classes. Right? So in an area that is

01:33:05 --> 01:33:06

not the for classes.

01:33:07 --> 01:33:08

So is it built right? That's all you

01:33:08 --> 01:33:09

need. Right?

01:33:10 --> 01:33:10

And then,

01:33:11 --> 01:33:14

Sheikh Ahmed Salim is from Atlanta. People are

01:33:14 --> 01:33:16

asking, who are these gusts? Sheikh Ahmed Salim

01:33:16 --> 01:33:17

is the 2nd time on the livestream.

01:33:18 --> 01:33:20

And you should listen to the first one.

01:33:20 --> 01:33:23

When he speaks, you learn all the time.

01:33:24 --> 01:33:26

Sheikh Hasidullah, tell us about your dawah. You

01:33:26 --> 01:33:26

are

01:33:27 --> 01:33:29

a convert yourself from Christianity.

01:33:29 --> 01:33:31

You should be the best one to be

01:33:31 --> 01:33:33

able to talk to other Christians. Tell us

01:33:33 --> 01:33:34

about that.

01:33:35 --> 01:33:36

It's,

01:33:36 --> 01:33:37

I think dua,

01:33:38 --> 01:33:39

you know, is about being real to yourself,

01:33:39 --> 01:33:41

first of all. You cannot give away what

01:33:41 --> 01:33:44

you do not have. SubhanAllah. And so you

01:33:44 --> 01:33:46

you have to first receive something from Allah.

01:33:46 --> 01:33:47

Mhmm. And

01:33:48 --> 01:33:49

I think that,

01:33:49 --> 01:33:52

many people have the misconception of Dua as

01:33:52 --> 01:33:55

being arguing and basically picking apart other people's

01:33:55 --> 01:33:55

religion

01:33:56 --> 01:33:58

at the sake of trying to uplift themselves.

01:33:58 --> 01:33:59

And in reality,

01:33:59 --> 01:34:01

the moment that you begin to argue with

01:34:01 --> 01:34:03

somebody, they're just gonna put a wallet. Oh,

01:34:03 --> 01:34:04

wow. So the best way you know, one

01:34:04 --> 01:34:06

of the I've seen more people become Muslim

01:34:06 --> 01:34:08

through food than I've seen, which is amazing

01:34:08 --> 01:34:11

because you guys have this, soup kitchen, which

01:34:11 --> 01:34:11

is

01:34:12 --> 01:34:13

It's a beautiful

01:34:13 --> 01:34:15

and I think one of the things that

01:34:15 --> 01:34:16

my teacher taught me as well is that

01:34:17 --> 01:34:19

you can't begin to, which which was Habib

01:34:19 --> 01:34:20

Omar,

01:34:21 --> 01:34:23

there in Tareem, is he says, you know,

01:34:23 --> 01:34:26

you can't meet somebody's spiritual needs without first

01:34:26 --> 01:34:29

meeting their physical needs. Amazing. Amazing.

01:34:29 --> 01:34:30

So,

01:34:30 --> 01:34:32

you know, you have to be able to

01:34:32 --> 01:34:33

you you have to be present with that

01:34:33 --> 01:34:35

person, and you have to understand their situation

01:34:35 --> 01:34:36

and where they're at. Yeah. And I think

01:34:36 --> 01:34:38

you have to focus on the things that

01:34:38 --> 01:34:39

you guys have in common.

01:34:39 --> 01:34:41

And then because the deen of Islam is

01:34:41 --> 01:34:44

a mohit, it's an ocean. Yep. And it

01:34:44 --> 01:34:44

encompasses

01:34:45 --> 01:34:47

it encompasses all of the ocean all of

01:34:47 --> 01:34:48

the religions

01:34:48 --> 01:34:50

as this ocean. So what you look for

01:34:50 --> 01:34:52

is you look for a hole within their

01:34:52 --> 01:34:54

life or an emptiness or a brokenness or

01:34:54 --> 01:34:55

you're looking for

01:34:56 --> 01:34:58

somewhere that they don't have an answer.

01:34:58 --> 01:35:01

And I guarantee you, if you've understood Islam

01:35:01 --> 01:35:03

or you you take the the the the

01:35:03 --> 01:35:05

questions that this person has asked, you take

01:35:05 --> 01:35:06

it to one of the.

01:35:07 --> 01:35:09

You ask them questions. You say, like, how

01:35:09 --> 01:35:11

can I help this person? They will give

01:35:11 --> 01:35:13

you answers that will fill all the gaps.

01:35:14 --> 01:35:15

And in doing that, what you're doing is

01:35:15 --> 01:35:17

is you're now not only making that person

01:35:17 --> 01:35:20

a better person because you're empowering them to

01:35:20 --> 01:35:22

take control of their life and they're make

01:35:22 --> 01:35:23

you're you're making them but you're also making

01:35:23 --> 01:35:25

them follow after the prophet Muhammad.

01:35:25 --> 01:35:27

And then by doing that, they're becoming Muslim.

01:35:29 --> 01:35:31

You know, and and and describing things to

01:35:31 --> 01:35:33

to people and and saying things to people,

01:35:34 --> 01:35:36

you know, that are just, you know,

01:35:36 --> 01:35:38

sometimes it's just them asking a question, and

01:35:38 --> 01:35:40

you answer them. And the next thing that

01:35:40 --> 01:35:42

you know, they begin to follow whatever you've

01:35:42 --> 01:35:43

said.

01:35:43 --> 01:35:46

And it's these little footsteps that are gonna

01:35:46 --> 01:35:46

lead somebody,

01:35:47 --> 01:35:50

into, you know, a deeper relationship with their,

01:35:50 --> 01:35:53

with with Allah. And and, you know, inshallah,

01:35:53 --> 01:35:54

we'll we'll take them,

01:35:54 --> 01:35:56

into the, into the.

01:35:59 --> 01:36:00

And, actually, I met a guy in Seattle.

01:36:00 --> 01:36:02

He actually came to a masjid one day,

01:36:03 --> 01:36:03

and he said,

01:36:04 --> 01:36:06

you know, I, I'm a prophet. So he

01:36:06 --> 01:36:08

went right to the imam. And this is

01:36:08 --> 01:36:10

right after I had, I had become a

01:36:10 --> 01:36:11

Muslim.

01:36:11 --> 01:36:13

And I I remember I was holding the

01:36:13 --> 01:36:14

Quran. I couldn't even read it at the

01:36:14 --> 01:36:15

time, you know.

01:36:16 --> 01:36:17

But I was just holding it because it

01:36:17 --> 01:36:19

was, you know, obviously so precious.

01:36:20 --> 01:36:21

And he went to the imam, and he

01:36:21 --> 01:36:23

starts giving him the whole spiel. And the

01:36:23 --> 01:36:25

next thing that I know that about 20

01:36:25 --> 01:36:26

minutes later, the imam comes to me and

01:36:26 --> 01:36:28

he says like I said, I need your

01:36:28 --> 01:36:30

help. So he's like, can you sit and

01:36:30 --> 01:36:30

talk to this guy? I said,

01:36:31 --> 01:36:33

No. No problem. And so he sits down

01:36:33 --> 01:36:35

with me and he says, like, I wanna

01:36:35 --> 01:36:37

tell you about this. I'm a prophet. And,

01:36:37 --> 01:36:38

you know, if you confess all of your

01:36:38 --> 01:36:40

sins and God is gonna get close to

01:36:40 --> 01:36:42

you and he starts, you know, giving me

01:36:42 --> 01:36:44

this whole spiel that, like, you know, you

01:36:44 --> 01:36:46

would you would find it, like, as a

01:36:46 --> 01:36:47

cookie cutter,

01:36:47 --> 01:36:50

conversation with pretty much any of these kind

01:36:50 --> 01:36:53

of, you would say, radicals or fanaticals or

01:36:53 --> 01:36:55

people who kind of, you know, have got

01:36:55 --> 01:36:56

on some kind of a whim.

01:36:57 --> 01:36:58

And after he sat there and talked for

01:36:58 --> 01:37:00

about 5 minutes, I just let him I

01:37:00 --> 01:37:01

just let him finish. And then as soon

01:37:01 --> 01:37:02

as I I said, are you done? I

01:37:02 --> 01:37:04

said, can I say something to you? And

01:37:04 --> 01:37:05

he said, sure. And he said I said,

01:37:05 --> 01:37:08

the difference between us and you, I said,

01:37:08 --> 01:37:10

is that you believe that by confessing what

01:37:10 --> 01:37:12

is wrong, you can come to something that

01:37:12 --> 01:37:14

is right. And I said, we believe

01:37:14 --> 01:37:16

as Muslims that by confessing what is right,

01:37:16 --> 01:37:19

that is what enables us then to now

01:37:19 --> 01:37:21

be close to our Lord. And I said,

01:37:24 --> 01:37:25

That's the way that we just get close

01:37:25 --> 01:37:27

to our Lord. And then through that, then

01:37:27 --> 01:37:29

there's the access then to the Tawba.

01:37:30 --> 01:37:32

And I think the the whole,

01:37:33 --> 01:37:34

debate

01:37:35 --> 01:37:37

scene is only really meant for people who

01:37:37 --> 01:37:38

are watching on the side. The person in

01:37:38 --> 01:37:41

front never benefits from it. As you said,

01:37:41 --> 01:37:42

all they do is put up a a

01:37:42 --> 01:37:44

greater wall. Yeah. And he's gonna leave that

01:37:44 --> 01:37:46

debate. You've actually done him a great disservice.

01:37:47 --> 01:37:49

And the only person who should be debated

01:37:49 --> 01:37:51

and humiliated is someone who is attacking

01:37:52 --> 01:37:52

Islam.

01:37:54 --> 01:37:56

In that case, you need to stop him.

01:37:56 --> 01:37:57

Right? But regular people,

01:37:58 --> 01:38:00

they they really come to Islam, like you

01:38:00 --> 01:38:02

said, through food more than anything else. And

01:38:02 --> 01:38:04

I remember someone who

01:38:05 --> 01:38:07

we had on the stream at some point.

01:38:07 --> 01:38:08

Who was it

01:38:08 --> 01:38:10

that simply said that somebody,

01:38:12 --> 01:38:13

in Ramadan, it was Iftar,

01:38:14 --> 01:38:16

just passed him a date? Mhmm. That's not

01:38:16 --> 01:38:17

even,

01:38:17 --> 01:38:19

like, a good deed in our religion. That's,

01:38:19 --> 01:38:20

like, just manners.

01:38:20 --> 01:38:22

Alex Cromer. Yeah.

01:38:22 --> 01:38:23

He

01:38:24 --> 01:38:25

that's not even like you don't even think

01:38:25 --> 01:38:27

of that as a good deed. You think

01:38:27 --> 01:38:29

of that as just manners. Right? Mhmm. It

01:38:29 --> 01:38:30

just end up and he was shocked. He

01:38:30 --> 01:38:31

said the guy who came over to me

01:38:31 --> 01:38:33

gave me a date as the end of

01:38:33 --> 01:38:34

Maghrib was about to go off.

01:38:35 --> 01:38:37

That that never happened before. We've never seen

01:38:37 --> 01:38:38

such generosity.

01:38:41 --> 01:38:43

Right? That was an amazing story. Like, that's

01:38:43 --> 01:38:44

how simple it is.

01:38:45 --> 01:38:48

Most humans are very simple creatures looking for

01:38:48 --> 01:38:49

good and bad. That's it. Mhmm. And and

01:38:49 --> 01:38:51

most people, they're eating also in a sit

01:38:51 --> 01:38:53

they're they're eating their meals alone.

01:38:54 --> 01:38:55

Awesome. Most people in the west, I mean,

01:38:55 --> 01:38:57

that's Yeah. So all of a sudden, you

01:38:57 --> 01:38:59

invite them to eat or you're you're handing

01:38:59 --> 01:39:01

somebody something and, you know, they're supposed to

01:39:01 --> 01:39:03

eat with you. This is a huge thing

01:39:03 --> 01:39:05

for them. Yeah. And it begins to just

01:39:05 --> 01:39:07

begins to just take that, like you said,

01:39:07 --> 01:39:09

you know, takes that heart and just begins

01:39:09 --> 01:39:11

to refine it and begins to polish it

01:39:11 --> 01:39:13

and mold it and bring it back to

01:39:13 --> 01:39:14

what it originally was intended.

01:39:19 --> 01:39:22

Allah said prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said,

01:39:23 --> 01:39:24

No.

01:39:25 --> 01:39:25

First

01:39:26 --> 01:39:27

thing,

01:39:27 --> 01:39:28

Mhmm.

01:39:29 --> 01:39:30

Like, the first thing,

01:39:32 --> 01:39:33

Yeah. Well, Surah Alham.

01:39:34 --> 01:39:35

You know when the how the soup kitchen

01:39:35 --> 01:39:37

started up was that

01:39:38 --> 01:39:38

being having,

01:39:40 --> 01:39:42

being trained in Imam al Hadad's methods and

01:39:42 --> 01:39:43

the importance of dawah,

01:39:44 --> 01:39:45

I was thinking to myself,

01:39:45 --> 01:39:47

New Brunswick is right here.

01:39:47 --> 01:39:50

It's not right that we have no dua.

01:39:50 --> 01:39:51

Like, how are we doing dua?

01:39:52 --> 01:39:53

So then I thought,

01:39:53 --> 01:39:55

we gotta go into New Brunswick and start

01:39:55 --> 01:39:58

giving the dua. And I did PS on

01:39:58 --> 01:39:59

our methodology.

01:39:59 --> 01:40:01

In our method, if someone was to come

01:40:01 --> 01:40:03

to us with a religious ruling, with a

01:40:03 --> 01:40:03

hadith,

01:40:04 --> 01:40:06

that we don't know this person, who he

01:40:06 --> 01:40:08

is. The fact just the fact that I

01:40:08 --> 01:40:10

don't know you is sufficient for me to

01:40:10 --> 01:40:12

say, I'm not obligated to listen to you.

01:40:12 --> 01:40:14

I don't know you. Right? You are to

01:40:14 --> 01:40:15

me.

01:40:16 --> 01:40:18

So why isn't it why wouldn't they say

01:40:18 --> 01:40:20

the same thing? Like, we don't know you.

01:40:20 --> 01:40:20

You're not

01:40:21 --> 01:40:24

Latino like us. You don't speak our language.

01:40:24 --> 01:40:26

You don't live with us. Yeah. You have

01:40:26 --> 01:40:27

no clue how we live. Why in the

01:40:27 --> 01:40:29

world do we listen to you? Who are

01:40:29 --> 01:40:31

you? Who are you? Right?

01:40:31 --> 01:40:34

And how odd would it be a complete

01:40:34 --> 01:40:36

stranger trying to tell you the most important

01:40:36 --> 01:40:38

thing about life? This is literally the most

01:40:38 --> 01:40:40

important thing of your existence. You have to

01:40:40 --> 01:40:41

earn the right. You have to earn the

01:40:41 --> 01:40:44

right to utter a word. So I said,

01:40:44 --> 01:40:46

guys, we need social traction. We need social

01:40:46 --> 01:40:47

credit, something

01:40:48 --> 01:40:50

to earn trust with these folks.

01:40:50 --> 01:40:53

Have we we benefited them in any way,

01:40:53 --> 01:40:54

shape, and form? That's the question we have

01:40:54 --> 01:40:55

to ask. And have you prayed for them

01:40:55 --> 01:40:57

in the night? Night? Yeah. Subhanallah. That's a

01:40:57 --> 01:40:59

that's a major thing. Subhanallah. How can you

01:40:59 --> 01:41:00

give dua to somebody that you haven't even

01:41:00 --> 01:41:02

prayed for? Subhanallah. I remember brought them before

01:41:02 --> 01:41:03

your lord.

01:41:04 --> 01:41:05

One answered the question, said,

01:41:06 --> 01:41:08

dua is 80% dua, 20%

01:41:09 --> 01:41:10

talking. Yeah, Allah.

01:41:11 --> 01:41:14

And and that that really changed everything. Like,

01:41:14 --> 01:41:15

we have so much.

01:41:16 --> 01:41:17

We are a community

01:41:18 --> 01:41:19

of SUVs,

01:41:20 --> 01:41:22

and we know how much an SUV takes

01:41:22 --> 01:41:25

every time at the gas pump. Yeah. The

01:41:25 --> 01:41:27

these are a community who do not even

01:41:27 --> 01:41:29

have cars. If you're to tell them, come

01:41:29 --> 01:41:30

and take free money,

01:41:31 --> 01:41:32

pick up free money,

01:41:33 --> 01:41:35

they can't even come to you. It's not

01:41:35 --> 01:41:36

how they do not have cars.

01:41:37 --> 01:41:39

So we first have to benefit their dunya

01:41:39 --> 01:41:40

first

01:41:40 --> 01:41:42

to the point that one of their kids

01:41:42 --> 01:41:44

should grow up and say everything was always

01:41:44 --> 01:41:46

fine in terms of food when we had

01:41:46 --> 01:41:47

the Muslims.

01:41:48 --> 01:41:49

And the question is, if you were to

01:41:49 --> 01:41:51

take a Muslim community,

01:41:51 --> 01:41:52

highlight, delete

01:41:53 --> 01:41:54

that whole community,

01:41:55 --> 01:41:56

who would say,

01:41:56 --> 01:41:58

shoot, we lost a lot?

01:41:58 --> 01:42:01

Who which people in the society would say,

01:42:01 --> 01:42:02

we lost a lot?

01:42:03 --> 01:42:06

No rush. Most cases. Most cases Patients. No

01:42:06 --> 01:42:06

rush.

01:42:07 --> 01:42:09

Patients. We have patients. Exactly.

01:42:09 --> 01:42:12

Hospital CEOs. Doctors. Hospital CEO. Oh, shoot. What

01:42:12 --> 01:42:14

are we gonna do? Right? We have the

01:42:14 --> 01:42:15

highest per capita doctors.

01:42:16 --> 01:42:17

AT and T would say, wait. We're all

01:42:17 --> 01:42:19

the IT experts and the programmers. That's it.

01:42:20 --> 01:42:20

Right?

01:42:21 --> 01:42:23

That's all that's all that's it. Nobody would

01:42:23 --> 01:42:26

say, oh my gosh. Where are the Muslims?

01:42:26 --> 01:42:28

You don't wanna protect yourself in America. People

01:42:28 --> 01:42:31

say, oh, we may be they could turn

01:42:31 --> 01:42:32

on us at any time. Allah

01:42:33 --> 01:42:34

says,

01:42:38 --> 01:42:40

That which benefits people will always be established

01:42:40 --> 01:42:41

in the earth.

01:42:42 --> 01:42:44

This is the best thing for our political

01:42:44 --> 01:42:45

political survival.

01:42:45 --> 01:42:48

Benefit people. So now we have to ask

01:42:48 --> 01:42:49

ourselves question. How what do we benefit? Now

01:42:49 --> 01:42:51

we have to bring benefit. And we're not

01:42:51 --> 01:42:53

gonna be satisfied. It's not satisfactory.

01:42:53 --> 01:42:56

We haven't achieved anything until the day comes

01:42:56 --> 01:42:57

that one of these

01:42:57 --> 01:42:58

children here

01:42:59 --> 01:42:59

says

01:43:00 --> 01:43:02

we never had to be hungry because the

01:43:02 --> 01:43:04

Muslims were here. Right? Mhmm. Because it is

01:43:04 --> 01:43:06

soup kitchen. And that's why it has to

01:43:06 --> 01:43:08

be 7 days a week eventually. It cannot

01:43:08 --> 01:43:10

one day a week, this is just practice.

01:43:11 --> 01:43:13

Yep. This is gonna be a practice. That's

01:43:13 --> 01:43:13

it.

01:43:14 --> 01:43:16

This is practice. This is to see what

01:43:16 --> 01:43:17

it takes financially,

01:43:18 --> 01:43:21

effort wise, people wise, and then it has

01:43:21 --> 01:43:23

to be 7 days a week. Right?

01:43:25 --> 01:43:28

Christmas, Eid, New Year's, Thanksgiving, it doesn't make

01:43:28 --> 01:43:29

a difference. Right?

01:43:30 --> 01:43:32

People eat every day. Right? I'll give you

01:43:32 --> 01:43:34

a really good example that sometimes we don't

01:43:34 --> 01:43:37

know of. So Yeah. You know, Memphis Islamic

01:43:37 --> 01:43:37

Center,

01:43:38 --> 01:43:39

you know, they have a tradition.

01:43:39 --> 01:43:42

1 year, they do the Thanksgiving drink dinner,

01:43:42 --> 01:43:44

and they invite their neighboring church to come

01:43:44 --> 01:43:45

and host.

01:43:45 --> 01:43:47

So they will come, and the church will

01:43:47 --> 01:43:48

come to their Masjid

01:43:49 --> 01:43:50

in their gym, and they will have a

01:43:50 --> 01:43:53

Thanksgiving dinner hosting key members of the church

01:43:53 --> 01:43:54

and some of the community of

01:43:55 --> 01:43:56

the church. And the next year, they swap

01:43:56 --> 01:43:57

it.

01:43:57 --> 01:43:59

Oh, Hajib. So the Muslims go to their

01:43:59 --> 01:44:01

place. Right. And and and and they have

01:44:01 --> 01:44:05

such a mutual relationship with one another, respectful.

01:44:05 --> 01:44:07

They can use their parking although they don't

01:44:07 --> 01:44:09

need a parking lot. They have a special

01:44:09 --> 01:44:10

big parking lot. But, you know,

01:44:11 --> 01:44:12

back in the day, and they have built

01:44:12 --> 01:44:14

a beautiful relationship with that. And I think

01:44:14 --> 01:44:16

food, as the city said, is one of

01:44:16 --> 01:44:17

the fastest

01:44:18 --> 01:44:20

ways for you to get to somebody's

01:44:20 --> 01:44:22

part. Yeah. Like, you know, just bring them

01:44:22 --> 01:44:24

over for food and, you know, how much

01:44:24 --> 01:44:26

does it cost? Like, let's go to a

01:44:26 --> 01:44:29

halal shop and pick up some burger patties.

01:44:29 --> 01:44:31

It might cost you, like, $150 for 24,

01:44:31 --> 01:44:32

25 patties.

01:44:32 --> 01:44:35

And then do up a small grilled burger

01:44:35 --> 01:44:36

next door neighbor. Say, how many how many

01:44:36 --> 01:44:38

burgers he's gonna eat? Like, if he eats,

01:44:38 --> 01:44:41

like, 2 burgers, that's, like, 8. Like, you

01:44:41 --> 01:44:43

still have the the remaining, you know, 16

01:44:43 --> 01:44:45

left for your family. Right?

01:44:45 --> 01:44:47

You know what's really funny is one time

01:44:47 --> 01:44:50

that, yeah, Omer, you could fire that up.

01:44:50 --> 01:44:52

October 26th, by the way, we're trying we're

01:44:52 --> 01:44:54

having a big any our annual gala for

01:44:54 --> 01:44:56

the soup kitchen, by the way, since we

01:44:56 --> 01:44:58

brought it up. And it'll be streamed. You

01:44:58 --> 01:45:00

can you can watch it on the Safina

01:45:00 --> 01:45:03

Society channel to help us, take us over

01:45:03 --> 01:45:04

the top. So

01:45:04 --> 01:45:06

interestingly, there was a guy

01:45:07 --> 01:45:07

who,

01:45:08 --> 01:45:11

we were giving food to early on. Before

01:45:11 --> 01:45:12

we had the soup kitchen, we would physically

01:45:12 --> 01:45:15

walk around with the food. And we had

01:45:15 --> 01:45:16

these these

01:45:17 --> 01:45:19

trays, little silver tray,

01:45:20 --> 01:45:22

and it had in it, like, biryani and

01:45:22 --> 01:45:23

chicken.

01:45:24 --> 01:45:26

It was good. Like, anyone would eat it.

01:45:26 --> 01:45:28

So we gave it to this to this

01:45:28 --> 01:45:29

guy,

01:45:29 --> 01:45:31

and this dude

01:45:31 --> 01:45:33

was was like, man, I'm not eating this

01:45:33 --> 01:45:34

stuff. Right? I was like, what do you

01:45:34 --> 01:45:36

want? And he said, I want a a

01:45:36 --> 01:45:38

a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a

01:45:38 --> 01:45:39

hotdog.

01:45:40 --> 01:45:41

I said,

01:45:42 --> 01:45:43

Like, what kind of

01:45:44 --> 01:45:46

my all of our first reaction was, like,

01:45:46 --> 01:45:48

number 1, that is a dumb trade, number

01:45:48 --> 01:45:50

1. Number 2,

01:45:51 --> 01:45:51

what

01:45:52 --> 01:45:54

what kind of nerve do you have? Someone's

01:45:54 --> 01:45:56

offering you free food, and you rebuff it

01:45:56 --> 01:45:59

like that. And I said, guys, alright, that's

01:45:59 --> 01:46:00

what he

01:46:00 --> 01:46:02

likes. He doesn't know this stuff. Right? So

01:46:02 --> 01:46:03

they said, well, what

01:46:04 --> 01:46:05

my son said, what are we gonna do?

01:46:05 --> 01:46:07

I said, we're gonna get a peanut butter

01:46:07 --> 01:46:09

and jelly sandwich. Right? And that's what we

01:46:09 --> 01:46:12

actually did. Right? It's just an exercise

01:46:12 --> 01:46:14

in when you deal with this stuff, it's

01:46:14 --> 01:46:17

an exercise in a sense in humility. Right?

01:46:17 --> 01:46:18

Or it's an exercise to see what it

01:46:18 --> 01:46:20

who are you dealing with. Yeah. Exactly. You

01:46:20 --> 01:46:21

don't even know who you're dealing with. Aware

01:46:21 --> 01:46:24

of who your audience is. Yeah. Exactly. Is

01:46:24 --> 01:46:26

is is there with you? No. Uthman. No.

01:46:26 --> 01:46:29

Uthman was still a, a young high school

01:46:29 --> 01:46:31

student at that time. Okay. Right? But in

01:46:31 --> 01:46:32

the debate club. But,

01:46:33 --> 01:46:35

The food is food is the key, man.

01:46:35 --> 01:46:38

Yeah. So you you have to adapt yourself,

01:46:39 --> 01:46:41

and it has to come on certain things

01:46:41 --> 01:46:44

have to be on their terms, right, on

01:46:44 --> 01:46:45

the terms of the person you're talking to.

01:46:46 --> 01:46:47

So I wanted to I wanted to to

01:46:47 --> 01:46:49

just I didn't get a chance to to

01:46:49 --> 01:46:51

jump into that point. I had taken a

01:46:51 --> 01:46:52

note of that. You know, that, you know,

01:46:52 --> 01:46:53

the the the and

01:46:54 --> 01:46:56

and exaggeration in the praises of Prophet Sallallahu

01:46:56 --> 01:46:57

alaihi wa sallam. I remember my Sheikh Shakabdida

01:46:57 --> 01:46:58

used to say

01:46:59 --> 01:46:59

that

01:46:59 --> 01:47:02

which human being really thinks that he can

01:47:02 --> 01:47:04

exaggerate in the praise of Prophet Sallallahu alaihi

01:47:04 --> 01:47:04

wa sallam?

01:47:05 --> 01:47:06

Yep.

01:47:06 --> 01:47:08

Like Yeah. Like, if you can truly believe

01:47:08 --> 01:47:10

that you're gonna be able to praise him

01:47:10 --> 01:47:11

in his totality

01:47:11 --> 01:47:13

and go beyond what he's worthy of that

01:47:14 --> 01:47:16

if you really think that, then we need

01:47:16 --> 01:47:17

to have a discussion.

01:47:17 --> 01:47:20

Well, also yeah. How about how about this

01:47:20 --> 01:47:20

angle?

01:47:22 --> 01:47:24

In order to exaggerate something, you have to,

01:47:24 --> 01:47:26

at at first, attain its Haqq.

01:47:26 --> 01:47:29

Right? 100%. You have to attain the right

01:47:29 --> 01:47:29

level.

01:47:30 --> 01:47:32

The service that the prophet has done for

01:47:32 --> 01:47:33

you, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,

01:47:34 --> 01:47:36

by the will of Allah. There is the

01:47:36 --> 01:47:39

mussabib and there's the asbaab. Right? He's the

01:47:39 --> 01:47:39

sabaab

01:47:40 --> 01:47:42

of your eternal paradise if you attain it.

01:47:42 --> 01:47:44

Firstly, if you attain it. Yeah. Right?

01:47:45 --> 01:47:46

He's the sabaab for that.

01:47:47 --> 01:47:49

Therefore, to equal

01:47:50 --> 01:47:50

the reward

01:47:51 --> 01:47:53

that the the service that he gave you,

01:47:53 --> 01:47:56

you owe an eternity of gratitude. Right?

01:47:57 --> 01:48:00

That's fair. Right? If if what I gave

01:48:00 --> 01:48:01

you is it an eternal

01:48:01 --> 01:48:03

forever until the

01:48:03 --> 01:48:05

the until death, you get free coffee.

01:48:06 --> 01:48:09

Then you should thank me until death. Right?

01:48:09 --> 01:48:11

Yeah. Yeah. I shouldn't stop thanking you because

01:48:11 --> 01:48:13

my my coffee still keeps coming to you.

01:48:13 --> 01:48:15

Right? So, likewise, the prophet salam is his

01:48:15 --> 01:48:16

service. He is the Sabab

01:48:17 --> 01:48:19

through which you have an eternal paradise.

01:48:20 --> 01:48:22

Yeah. And save from an eternal *. You

01:48:22 --> 01:48:23

have two things because you didn't go from

01:48:23 --> 01:48:26

neutral to paradise. You went from

01:48:26 --> 01:48:28

* to paradise. So you owe him 2

01:48:28 --> 01:48:29

shukrs.

01:48:32 --> 01:48:35

No. You you can never reach even gratitude,

01:48:35 --> 01:48:36

let alone praise. Yeah.

01:48:37 --> 01:48:38

And is

01:48:39 --> 01:48:41

isn't there like a hadith? I don't remember

01:48:41 --> 01:48:42

exactly, but

01:48:45 --> 01:48:47

No. Or something like that. Somehow. There was

01:48:47 --> 01:48:49

some studies. I don't know I don't know

01:48:49 --> 01:48:51

the and stuff, but I remember reading it

01:48:51 --> 01:48:54

somewhere like that. Yeah. Right? My my

01:48:54 --> 01:48:57

Ladies and gentlemen, we have to stop here.

01:48:57 --> 01:48:59

I know there were some questions. I tried

01:48:59 --> 01:49:00

to answer a lot of them.

01:49:01 --> 01:49:01

Otherwise,

01:49:01 --> 01:49:04
