This is very important. Notice how what happens here.

00:00:04 --> 00:00:09

The Quran went to the Jews to think of a challenge to see if

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

this prophet is true or false. The Prophet peace Jeevan and told them

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

I'll tell you tomorrow, the answer to these three questions because

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

he sees saying the Gibreel every day and he'll just ask him, well,

00:00:20 --> 00:00:26

but synergy didn't come down for 15 days. So after day one they

00:00:26 --> 00:00:30

told him, they started mocking him and started mocking the believers.

00:00:31 --> 00:00:35

So this story comes in, well, what is this story? The story of Satan

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

and Musa alayhis salam and Sentinel Qatar occurs because Musa

00:00:39 --> 00:00:43

alayhis salam was asked after giving a long speech on the

00:00:43 --> 00:00:48

history of the entire universe and what is to come? Okay.

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

And back in those times, they were roaming in the desert and there

00:00:51 --> 00:00:55

was a lot of free time. Okay, there was very little to do. And

00:00:55 --> 00:00:59

they were in that area of land where they weren't settled. So

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

there were days in which Satan the Musa, they said, I'm sat with the

00:01:02 --> 00:01:08

people and spoke to them for hours upon hours. And a man came to him

00:01:08 --> 00:01:11

said, Is there anyone more knowledgeable on the earth?

00:01:12 --> 00:01:13

And he said, No,

00:01:14 --> 00:01:17

I'm the most, he was the most knowledgeable. And it was true

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

that from the human beings you could answer that you have from

00:01:20 --> 00:01:22

the human beings on this earth. There's no one more knowledgeable.

00:01:23 --> 00:01:26

But then Allah subhanaw taala informed him well, there is

00:01:26 --> 00:01:30

someone more knowledgeable, and is not even a human who's going to

00:01:30 --> 00:01:34

teach you. I mean, it's not even an angel or anything. It's a human

00:01:34 --> 00:01:36

being. Right? Just to

00:01:38 --> 00:01:43

Okay, and his name was hidden to show like the humble state, okay,

00:01:43 --> 00:01:45

now, it's not like, oh, I said that, then you could say, oh, it's

00:01:45 --> 00:01:50

amazing. person, right? But no, just up to his description in the

00:01:50 --> 00:01:53

Quran is just just a slave. Just to show Musa alayhis salam, well,

00:01:53 --> 00:01:57

there's always someone more knowledgeable. Okay. And to show

00:01:57 --> 00:02:03

him that what he should say is allow them. Okay, so Satana Musa

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

alayhis salam

00:02:04 --> 00:02:08

isn't the Jews, this is their prophet, the Jews know the story.

00:02:09 --> 00:02:12

And this is. So why are they taking part in mocking the Prophet

00:02:12 --> 00:02:15

Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam, when he can answer the questions

00:02:15 --> 00:02:19

for 15 days, then they're laughing? And they say he doesn't

00:02:19 --> 00:02:22

know. Well, the whole point was that he wasn't bringing this

00:02:22 --> 00:02:26

message from himself to begin with. So in fact, the fact that

00:02:26 --> 00:02:28

number one, the fact that the Prophet peace be upon him,

00:02:28 --> 00:02:33

couldn't answer them on the spot, shows them that he's not bringing

00:02:33 --> 00:02:38

this revelation from himself to begin with. Okay? If he was, he

00:02:38 --> 00:02:41

would be clever enough. Okay, let me think, or I shouldn't say that

00:02:41 --> 00:02:45

phrase. But he should be if it was a person who was making stuff up,

00:02:45 --> 00:02:48

he would be clever enough to think well, let me just make something

00:02:48 --> 00:02:51

up. And let me figure it out. And let me go research it quickly. Not

00:02:51 --> 00:02:54

wait one day, and he's sitting doing they know, he's not going to

00:02:54 --> 00:02:59

research. They know he didn't travel to some

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

for maybe a friendly rabbi or a Christian who knew the story they

00:03:04 --> 00:03:09

knew there was no libraries, they see him every day. So Allah Azza

00:03:09 --> 00:03:12

wa sallam not going in not seeking knowledge, not seeking the

00:03:12 --> 00:03:17

knowledge, right? So that they it is this is the proof that the

00:03:17 --> 00:03:20

knowledge isn't coming from him. And that doesn't belittle the

00:03:20 --> 00:03:23

prophet at all. Because in this, we know that the Prophet have the

00:03:23 --> 00:03:27

greatest intellects, the strongest intellects. But it's absurd to

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

think that everyone knows everything. And the whole point of

00:03:29 --> 00:03:33

a prophet is he's a messenger. He's a go between. And of course,

00:03:33 --> 00:03:38

he's beyond that, more than that. But the chief role is that he's

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

not bringing something from himself, except by the permission

00:03:40 --> 00:03:44

of Allah, the chief message that he's bringing is from Allah to

00:03:44 --> 00:03:49

Allah. Okay, so he's a messenger, that's what a messenger means. So

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

he didn't have the knowledge. That's the first thing. The second

00:03:51 --> 00:03:54

thing is, you're mocking the Prophet, peace be upon him and

00:03:54 --> 00:03:59

you're the Jews will your own Prophet alayhi salam, as noble as

00:03:59 --> 00:04:03

the messengers are, didn't know everything. And here you have him

00:04:03 --> 00:04:06

learning from apt, learning from someone who

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

was just trapped, there is no name was given. And not only that,

00:04:12 --> 00:04:15

having to become very humble in the process. And not like humble

00:04:15 --> 00:04:19

as in he wasn't humble, but the form in which he had to take this

00:04:19 --> 00:04:24

knowledge was a humbling form. Namely, he had to travel a long

00:04:24 --> 00:04:29

distance. And then once he got there, he was basically told

00:04:29 --> 00:04:32

you're not allowed to ask any questions. And when he did ask

00:04:32 --> 00:04:35

questions, because he felt that he couldn't stand what he was seeing,

00:04:35 --> 00:04:38

he was expelled from his teacher. So Subhanallah

00:04:39 --> 00:04:45

it's amazing that that Allah to Allah knew, he knew. And he saw

00:04:45 --> 00:04:48

that these Yahoo's are now mocking the Prophet peace be upon him.

00:04:48 --> 00:04:52

Okay, well wait a second year on profit as well that you are

00:04:52 --> 00:04:56

claiming to be loyal to and representing he also didn't know.

00:04:57 --> 00:05:00

There were things he didn't know. All right, and this store

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

It comes to neutralize, okay, the mockery of the Jews and make them

00:05:06 --> 00:05:11

realize wait a second, we're what are we mocking? A prophet who

00:05:11 --> 00:05:15

doesn't know everything? And is it? Is it even reasonable to think

00:05:15 --> 00:05:18

that a prophet should know everything? And here is your

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

profit? Didn't know everything
