Taqwa Allah has said he will Allen Yeah, are you holding it up from
la ha ha ha to quality he won at Hamilton in one two Muslim on my
bad. My dear brothers and sisters ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada. Made as
revealed suited selca and the messenger of allah sallallahu
alayhi wa salam commanded us as a sunnah to recite it every Joomla
and sutra. Tilka is special in two ways in three ways. Sutra Tilka
was revealed in a special manner, a manner that was memorable to all
memorable to everybody notable in its revelation to everybody.
And that it was a response to a challenge. And it was an IP Tila,
there was a trial for all the Muslims and all the believers in
that the messenger SallAllahu it he was sending them received.
Our however, from the pagans, he received some guests from the
pagans
who had consulted with the Jews and the Jews.
Although the Prophet was calling to one God, he was not from them,
to show their lack of sincerity, they sided with the pagans. They
sided with pagans,
who are further from their message for the simple reason that their
messenger the messenger of tau Eid in Mecca was not from the Jews.
So they chose pagans over monotheists.
Now when the Prophet was in the same situation,
namely was informed that the Romans and the pagans were
fighting.
They asked which ones were monotheistic and which ones were
pagans. And they were told the Persians are pagans, they worship
a fire. And the Romans are monotheists. They're Christians,
although they have the Trinity but in essence, it's a monotheistic
religion, in its essence, so they believe that God is one but three
within himself.
So who did the Muslims root for? The Muslims supported the Romans
and they were given victory, not out of Allah loving them, but it
was just their destiny to have a victory. And when Allah to Allah
elevates one type of Khufu over another it doesn't mean he loves
them. Nor does it mean he supports them. It's just that that's how
their destiny is.
And in this time, they supported the Romans.
And Quran was revealed Surah to room, goalie better room we added
a lot in the lowest of the Earth, meaning that where that battle
happened between the Romans and the Persians was a very low part
of the earth. In fact, Quran says the lowest part of their the
advent of whoa Mumbai develop him 70 Bone feeders Icynene.
After the Romans had lost the first battle forbid the ICD 10
which is three to 10 years, this is the meaning of Bilbo. They will
win again.
So Abu Bakr Siddiq, knowing that this is hot as everyone can please
move up. administration is saying please move up
knowing that this is how
he wagered
with courage with the pagans. He said, I'll put a wager that within
three years the Romans will come back and defeat the pagans.
The Persians is when the Persians won the first battle all the
pagans were happy.
So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam received when he said
tell me about the deal you made, he said
I put down a wager with them because of Sunita.
room that in three years, they will win again. The monotheists
will defeat the pagans again. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said go back, extend it from three to nine years and
double the wager.
So, we have to ask, why because build that does not mean three, it
means three to nine years at double the wager so we ask the
question is betting Hello. It was a bet from the side of Quraysh,
but not for Abu Bakar.
Because he knew that this is true, this is what he said he had
certainty and therefore, by Sharia, it didn't count as a bet.
So, the Muslim anytime that there are two factions of Coco,
attacking one another, they always supported that which was closer to
toe eight.
And of course, it happened and it happened at the time around battle
of brother at the time of the battle, whether
that the Romans and Persians had their next battle, and the Romans
won again, defeat defeated them this time, the purchase.
So now they are who though? Look what they did, they're the
opposite.
Here you have a new monotheistic religion and to them in their
eyes, and you have pagans, logically they should support the
monotheists if they care so much about their God and they love
their God.
But this mono theist was not one of them.
And they are rude all through the Quran, have an allegiance to
themselves before even ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada. What's the proof
of this? Every time I read every time the bene Israel email
address, Musa
alayhis salam
asking for a job. Do they ever say ask Allah? Do they ever say ask
our Lord, they always say ask your Lord.
They don't attribute Allah's Lordship to themselves.
Which means they have such a distance between them and Allah
this was one of the sicknesses of their hearts. One of the automat
was asked, how many prophets does the ummah of Islam have? He said,
One how many prophets does the OMA have Musa and many Israeli lab? He
said, We can't count them.
Probably though, half of all prophets. There's a narration that
says half of all Prophets came to them, and the other half scattered
throughout the world.
So said then which one is the superior?
He said, Then is the Jewish man is thinking you should say Benny's
ROI because we have more profits.
He said no, the home of Islam. We needed one doctor to be healthy.
You needed hundreds upon 1000s of doctors and you're still sick.
So the venue's rallied now another who'd now challenged brought this
challenge and said Ask Mohammed three questions. There's no way
he's gonna get them. Right. And if he does, he's a real prophet.
And these were the three questions of suicide if there's a famous
story that's well known.
For this reason, now, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
famously said, I'm going to inform you tomorrow, the three questions
were tell us about the people of the cave. The second question was
about the king who ruled east and west. And the third question was
about the the rule. And that one was a trick question, because the
answer is, I don't have an answer.
That was a trick question.
Of course, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam bought them the
truth.
But after a few 5015 days, and the reason was that he had not said
insha Allah.
So someone who says okay, the Prophet didn't say in sha Allah,
that's an imperfection for the messengers of Allah when he was
seven. This is a good question. How could you not say insha Allah?
The answer very simple, it wasn't mushroom.
It was not mushroom or meaning lot sooner and law to say insha Allah
until students and calf came down.
So the prophets I said I had done nothing wrong. So this is one of
the meanings that you should understand. When you see cut the
Belfor Allah Allah cometa cadmium in the coma taka, Allah has
forgiven your past mistakes, past sins and future sins are going to
profit have sins. How could a prophet have sins when we're
commanded to follow Him that means we follow him in sins? How then
sins would be a sunnah we are commanded to follow the Prophet in
every big and small thing. This is why when a Sahabi asks, Can I
write your words? Because the Prophet had forbidden written
writing his words so it doesn't be confused with the Quran? But after
the Quran was established?
in the hearts of people, then the and they know the difference of
Quran and Hadith that he said right my words, this hobby came,
and he heard that the permission has been given to write down the
prophets words. So he started writing his words. Now he started
asking all messengers Shall we write, when you're not giving us
law?
If you for example, he said, if you make a joke, should I write it
down? Meaning where is the line between following you and not
following you, between your words being law for us or not? He said,
Write everything even that because nothing comes from this tongue
except the truth. The automat take from this hadith that you can get
50 rulings and wisdoms from the jokes of the prophets of Allah
when he was.
So everything from the prophet is mature. So therefore, when this
area comes down, we have forgiven you your past and your future. It
means that the messenger some Allah when he was sent him used to
make is too far from things that he did before it was law.
Before saying in sha Allah was law, he didn't say Inshallah,
there wasn't taught to say so. He makes us too far for that, after
the ruling came down, just like somebody gaining wisdom, looks
back at his youth and he shakes his head, what was I thinking?
What was I doing, oh, ALLAH forgive him for these decisions I
made, but at the time, it was the best decision you can make. This
is one of the meanings so that nobody imagines in his mind. That
this means the prophet has sins and disobey is Allah.
Even Prophet Adam at a salon eating from the fruit, from one of
the opinions is that his body committed a wrong action. Yes, his
body broke the law. But what's the reason? Allah said NetSuite? Well,
I'm legend level Asma, Allah gives you why he ate from the tree, why
did his body break the law of Allah? Because the Quran tells
you, you don't have to ask the question when the Quran tells you
said Nursey Well, I'm not Allah Who asthma, a jasmine, Allah,
Allah tough kill.
He forgot. And we found that he didn't have strength, strength of
what strength of remembering.
That was the strength.
So here now, the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had to
wait 15 days. Now the city of Mecca is small. Everyone knows
where everyone is. And books at this time were very rare holy men
or scribes, we should say not holy men, but scribes from the previous
religions. Were very rare, if any. So they see the prophesy Saddam is
not going around researching for 15 days, it didn't come down.
And then these 15 days what happened?
Every day the pagans would make fun of the prophets of Allah when
he was salam. And because of this gap of time, many people who are
on the edge of entering Islam ran away. They said, if he was truly a
prophet, then he wouldn't be made fun of like this, and his Lord
would save him.
So what is the wisdom of this wisdom here is to show everybody
in fact, if he's the author of the Quran, why would he intentionally
Wait 15 days, many, many bad things happen to the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam hardships and fitten only to do
nothing but prove that this Quran is not his word. This is one of
them. For 15 days, they made fun of the Prophet have you failed,
you failed to bring us an answer for 15 days.
This is in fact a proof that the word is not from him.
As Jabra is Salam came after 15 days of distress. And he asked
debri What took you so long? And you see were in distress? And God
said, Yes, I saw. And Allah revealed Romana 10 as the iLab in
Europe, we don't come down except by the permission of your Lord.
We don't come down except by Allah's permission. And Allah kept
us we see what's happening. But we can move except with the Command
of your Lord.
rhombic by the Command of your Lord, that's it. So here is one
instance where the revelation was delayed to prove it's not from
him, why would he harm himself like this? Here's another one. In
front of the entire city of Medina and all of history knows this
hadith well if
his own wife, Aisha Radi Allahu Taala
is being accused
of indecency and Zina What
can a man leave his family to be accused like this without saying
anything? How was she made innocent?
By nothing other than the way
so if he's the author of the why, why wait 30 days? Why wait a whole
month and watch your family being barraged with the rumors from some
of his cousins did this and I
It's just cousins even.
And other well known Sahaba. Like I said, Ben sabots, who later
repented, and Allah elevated his rank.
And other people like Mr. who attended the Battle of better.
Were involved in saying
bad things about Ayesha. And if you say bad things about a man's
wife, you have basically humiliated the man himself,
especially Zina. Because it means she's not satisfied with you
physically, that she had to go to somebody else. This is one of the
worst attacks. It's not on Aisha only. It's on the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
from the worst attacks is to say a man's wife committed Zina. Because
it means a she's indecent but also you're insufficient physically
attacking his. So when this happens,
what is this in fact for the prophets of Allah who it was some
of them it's a share in the trial and tribulation that Musa
suffered.
The messengers from ALLAH, why do you send them when he gets
elevated? He gets elevated.
Through tribulations, elevation always come through tribulations.
In this hadith of
the Prophet was elevated even more through a tribulation that
happened to Musa and I
was elevated through a tribulation that happened to say the Maryam,
later on, she said, she was challenged by a Christian.
And the Christian said, How is it that Allah's Messenger his wife is
accused of Zina?
The response from the Muslim was, oh, Christian, what are you
saying? You believe Mary is the Mother of God and she was accused,
same accusation. So I Isha was elevated with the same tribulation
as say the meridian. So a sliver of all of that tribulation was
poured upon the household of the messengers of Allah and who said,
What about Prophet Musa?
Prophet Musa, the tribulation that he faced was a bad tribulation
during a time of peace amongst Bani Israel. But Prophet Musa used
to never be
with the end of slavery, it was hello for them to be the naked the
men amongst each other and the women amongst each other because
they didn't have showers there in the roaming around the Sinai
Peninsula. Anytime they find a lake. They all go bathed there and
is headed in the law of the Jews to bathe in front of other people
even till today in their gyms they shower. This is why in their
religion, it's hard to
But Prophet Musa has his own laws. Prophets have different laws, he
can't show his outer to anyone he bathed by himself. So what did the
videos that I eat today?
They say, his masculinity has a flaw. There's something wrong with
him physically. These people, what are you going to do with these
people? Is this not the man who saved you from around and you're
gonna speak like him like this? SubhanAllah. And if it was, if it
was, Is it his fault, he just created this way. No one's ever at
fault for their physical being.
So they made fun of him. And they would laugh when they hear that
Musa is not amongst them or he's bathing by himself. So Allah Tala
makes his prophets innocent. So that the innocent people the good
people, among the many throw him don't have doubts. Because some
good people listen to evil people. They don't know the difference
between who's good and who's bad. Allah says with the come some noun
and a home. Some of you good people listen to bad people. You
don't know the difference between the good and the bad. Common man.
He's a very good man. But he chose wrong amens. He doesn't know how
to choose his shoe.
So he gets misguided. So a lot for that for those people sake, shows
the truth. And this is the famous Hadith of the rock. Mousavi Saddam
was bathing by himself. Prophets of Allah when he was setting them
tells us and Allah caused a rock to flow down and catch his clothes
which was hanging from a twig off a tree and his clothes and the
rock traveled with Prophet Musa is close, he went to get his garment,
he couldn't find it, he had to follow this rock until the water
got shallow.
There upon was a sitting of the leaders of Benina surah in and
they saw Prophet Musa naked
and they could not stop looking from the perfection of his body.
And that's how the rumor about his masculinity was dispelled. Here
and suity in this hadith and if
is not only attack on I should say attack on the masculine are the
prophets of Allah when he was selling them so here the prophets
I send them has Porsche a part of that tribulation. Every
tribulation is a different type of elevation like you see this
building is elevated
From here, but not here.
different qualities in a human being are elevated based on
different tribulations and the messenger is elevated beyond all
messengers. Therefore every tribulation that comes upon a
prophet, our messenger gets a portion of it.
A portion of the tribulation of Saudi of Adam of Musa of Asa, a
portion of all these tribulations, the prophets of Allah when he was
Saddam and his Alma
so here at students at Camp is one of these tribulations where they
had to wait 15 days. So sooner till KEF
Allah revealed it
in a unique manner to catch all of our attention.
Number two, is that the recitation of students and calf has made has
been made one of the major Sunon of recitation that we have
regarding the entire Quran. There is no sunnah of a specific Surah
to read more than there are for three portions of the Quran number
one, the last three codes, for protection of hazards, and for
waking up on time. Waking up on time, you may think why is that a
big deal because most of the world didn't have clocks and alarm
clocks until recent times. So how do they wake up for fetcher? Allah
gave them the vicar of the province I set him said recite the
three quarters before you sleep. Allah will send you something to
wake you up. This was a big tribulation people spend, they
don't know what time it is. Then they need to get a professional
and have said we all know
and AYATUL kursi is a protection from a bliss and it is a every
evening before you go to bed protection from shayateen and it's
also
a ticket to Jana. Prophesy seldom said no one who recites as an
kursi after every Salah there's nothing between him and Jana
except death. So it's a fast track ticket to John every time somebody
reads a it's cool to see the third of these great Sunon of recitation
is suited KEF every Friday, from federal to McGraw. What does it
do? It eliminates all of the sins of the past week. Halima asks,
When the Prophet says says this, does it mean only the minor sins?
Or does it mean the major sins to and the automat said it means the
minor sins if you just recite it, but if you recite it and couple it
with the intention of seeking forgiveness for the specific sins
you did, then it major sins too.
But the movie Gods which are seven in number they require more than
this. So the answer is there are three level of sins minor sins do
not require specific repentance. That means you don't have to say I
repent from using the effort on that on that day, no minor sins
just a good deed will wipe it away. major sins like a blush on
your cloth on your garment, your regular clothes, you just put it
in the wash, but if you have a specific spot, you have to scrub
that specific spot. So you must intend. I'm making Toba for that
then. And that's the difference between minor sins and major sets,
then the seven Movia cards require much more than this ombre hedge,
big set of cards, life altering Tober and these seven mobile cards
are the main sins Everyone must know what they are to avoid them.
But then
soon it's in calf wipes out minor sins and major sins not only this,
it gives you a note for the next week. And what does that know what
is what does it mean when Allah Azza when the prophesy Selim says
it gives you a light from this week until next week. Next from
this Giamatti next Juma? One of the meanings of this is that it
increases you in certain lessons and knowledge that will help you
and this is why students and cap is not just for recitation only.
You must see the lessons These lessons will help you avoid sense,
especially the first one.
Number one lesson intuitive calf is the first one and is the most
biggest amount of is spent upon this story, which is the summary
of the lesson here is hood geranyl Demacia,
the seven youth three or his five step youth
who fled ship. So the number one lesson
that is going to help you avoid sins is flee the people of sins.
This is the number one lesson. The third reason that Pseudotsuga KEF
is special.
Is that the memorization of the first or last 10 areas
protect you from the danger
protect you from the digit some people may ask him
Many young people may ask that gel is a humongous fitna. It is such a
huge fitna.
How are you telling me to memorize 10 A's which will take me one day
is going to protect me from the digit that just takes over the
whole world?
How am I going to be protected from the digit? Firstly, number
one, that when the prophets I send them talks about benefit and harm,
he's talking about your deen not your body protection in your deen
that you won't have fitna yes that the judge kills people that the
judge makes lands poor that the judge has the power to turn off
countries basically, just like right now the international
monetary community, if they want to turn the the plug, pull the
plug on a country, they can do it easily. They could stop all trade.
And they could lower the amount of trade that comes in and out of
this country, these people will be hungry within two months. And the
Jedi will have if all of that power, that the gel starts out
coming from Persia and and not famous, then he gains more fame,
then he gains more fame, then he becomes the most powerful man on
the earth. And he rules for a period of time. In that world, he
will have the ability to pull the plug on any nation that doesn't
follow him. Meaning if that nation had green grass and farms, all of
a sudden it becomes desert. What does that mean? That means no
trade with them.
No benefit to that nation. So that we may suffer from the outside but
our Dean won't suffer. We know people were dying of viruses and
flus and COVID but one little vaccine
in general because some people don't believe in these COVID
vaccines but let's say vaccine in general vaccine in general a lip
or a medicine in general, you could have hepatitis, you could
have all sorts of sicknesses. One little pill,
very small can fit in the size of your nail can fit in the palm of
your hand will protect you from death. And we know that we see
that in our with our own two eyes that there are pills, you take
this pill, you won't get sick. You paid you take this vaccine, you
won't get sick this little thing and look how big the body is.
But this little thing can protect you.
Allah subhanho wa Taala has willed it if you memorize the first or
the last, why do we say that? Because the prophets of Allah, why
didn't he was in one narration he said the first time. In another
narration he said the last time
why would the prophesy setting them not just tell us which one is
first or the last? Because he wants us to combine the first and
the last. And if you would memorize the first and the last?
You might as well memorize the whole thing. In this way the
prophets I seldom makes you guess which one is it? So the only safe
thing is to do both. And once you do both, you're gonna memorize
what's in the middle. There's no no one I've never seen anyone go
memorize the first 10 skip all the i's memorize lesson and ended the
day you memorize the whole students Surah Al Caffee. It's
called the cave. The names of these sutras are so important.
When our caves needed, they're needed in times of emergency. We
must come here in a time of emergency spiritual emergency, not
physical emergency, some in physical emergency in our own
spiritual emergency. It's this sort of it's contemplation. It's
recitation is the protection in the same way that a cave is a
physical protection. There was stuff for a lot.
hamdu Lillahi wa Salatu was Salam ala Rasulillah while earlier CIBJO
Manuela In summary, Allah has made suited calf special in three ways.
Number one, how it was revealed in such a way nobody can forget.
Number two is a sunnah to recited every week as part of a re Muslims
life as much as Juma number three. It is a protection for us from the
digital. The greatest, the biggest, biggest The Prophet said
the biggest fitna that will ever come to the earth is a digit. And
Allah has made the cure and the protection memorization of some of
his words. This is how simple it is. To memorize the first and last
one is of suited to death. We ask Allah subhana wa Tada for this
protection Allah whom identify him and her date what Burdick learner
