00:00:17 --> 00:00:18
			I will praise
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:20
			Allah Send peace and blessings upon
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:23
			our beloved messenger, Muhammad, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:26
			upon his family, his companions,
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:29
			and those who follow them until the end
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:30
			of time.
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:33
			Before I get started, I just wanna say
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:33
			thank you to,
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			everybody here in, Dollar Hajjra for making sure,
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:37
			like,
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:40
			everything's working, even the Somali tea.
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:43
			So now we're
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:45
			talking.
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:48
			But may Allah bless you. Communities are made
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:49
			up of volunteers.
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:50
			So I wanna encourage you if you have
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:51
			an opportunity,
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:55
			when the masjid is looking for volunteers,
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:58
			you know, to step up and to contribute,
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			that's a sign of Ikhlas.
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:10
			Right? Say to Isa, even though he has
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:11
			this great prophet
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:12
			and messenger,
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:14
			he still sought helpers.
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:17
			And the Allah says to Saydna Muhammad
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:24
			We helped you with divine assistance, and we
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25
			helped you with the believers.
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28
			And this is a sign also of a
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:29
			student of knowledge. His
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:31
			or her sincerity
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:34
			is to sometimes be
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			out of the spotlight.
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:38
			That's why a shaykh
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			He said that the path of Dua
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:47
			is 2 paths.
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:51
			The first is the path of being like
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:52
			a teacher,
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:53
			speaker,
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:54
			Khatib,
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:57
			Instagram influencer now,
		
00:01:58 --> 00:01:59
			TikTok,
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:03
			however it rolls, which is fine.
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			But he said,
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:09
			Like, you know, to to be in that
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:10
			path is very crowded.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:13
			Because there's fame that comes with it. There's
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:15
			an immediate sort
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:17
			of value.
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:20
			He said, as for the second way,
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:22
			it's like serving people,
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:24
			doing the little things.
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:25
			Right?
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:28
			Volunteering for example, in the masjid.
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:01
			That's not gonna get you a lot of
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:02
			likes. Right?
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:04
			But
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:06
			he said that's like the way of Dawah.
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:08
			That's the way of the prophets. Alayhi Musa'lam.
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:11
			So I say to Aisha,
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:13
			when they ask her about the prophet sallallahu
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:14
			alaihi wa sallam,
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:18
			She said,
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:25
			One of the students of Imam al Bukhari,
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:28
			he said after
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:30
			the class in hadith,
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			I saw him picking up like
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:34
			trash in the masjid.
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:36
			So
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:39
			it's very important to, like,
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:40
			couple the
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:42
			public exhibitionists
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:44
			with access to these.
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:47
			And one of those is like being a
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:47
			volunteer,
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:50
			and helping people.
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:16
			It's okay. Thank you. That there's no need
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:17
			to be
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:19
			apologize or anything, man. Don't worry about it.
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:20
			You're doing your best.
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:23
			It's like beyond our control. I'm not I
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:24
			don't
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			I don't get upset about these kind of
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:26
			things.
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:31
			So
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:36
			And we talked about it last week. The
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:38
			word bab means a door, but I heard
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:39
			from one of my teachers, masha'Allah,
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			that also the word bab
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:46
			is used when you enter someone's
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:49
			home. So he used to say to me
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:51
			that the word bab, which is translated as
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:52
			chapter, right,
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:55
			contains all of the etiquettes of the student
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:56
			and the teacher.
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:58
			The student is the guest,
		
00:04:58 --> 00:05:00
			the teacher is the host.
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:03
			So, like, when we go to someone's house,
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:05
			how do we present ourselves?
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:09
			And when we we welcome a guest, how
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:12
			do we welcome a guest?
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:15
			As the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam has
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:17
			said from this hadith of
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:27
			Whoever believes in Allah in the last day
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:30
			should be generous and welcoming to his or
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:31
			her guest.
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:35
			So he said, for mashaikh and imams,
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:38
			you know, don't be harsh on people, man.
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:39
			These are difficult times.
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:43
			People are experiencing a lot of trauma. And
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:43
			you
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:44
			add COVID to
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:47
			that, you add the economic challenges that
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			these last few years have brought in people's
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:51
			lives.
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:52
			You know,
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:54
			they're looking for
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:57
			hadith, right?
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00
			Be merciful to others, Allah will be merciful
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:01
			to you.
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:03
			Also the word Bab
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:06
			indicates, as we said before,
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:08
			and I heard this from
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:10
			doctor Amro,
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:15
			Ambro. So the word so
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:18
			the word also is from the hadith.
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:21
			Right? So the word reminds us of so
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23
			the student and the teacher are sincere.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:30
			The knowledge is like a secret
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:33
			between Allah
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:34
			and the student.
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:37
			Allah and the student.
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:38
			So,
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:39
			he says,
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:41
			The word
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:45
			ikhlas means to be pure.
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:47
			To purify something.
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:51
			I heard from Sheikh Abdul Hamoud from Ib
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:52
			Yemen. He's one of my teachers.
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:58
			Right? You purify something from filth. But imam
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:02
			says something beautiful about why we have to
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:05
			constantly make sure that we're trying to be
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:07
			sincere. It's not a one time thing. It's
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:09
			not like I achieve achieve sincerity, and then
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:11
			I'm good for the rest of my life.
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			I have to like battle
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:17
			always. Sufyan al Thawri,
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:20
			he said, like, there's nothing more difficult than
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:23
			sincerity because every time I thought I I
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:24
			got it, I lost it.
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:30
			So Imam Aragabal Asfahani, and his he has
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:32
			a great dictionary that he wrote
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:34
			about the Quran.
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:37
			And he says that
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:39
			this word
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:42
			comes from a word which means you purify
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:42
			something,
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:44
			but then
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:44
			still
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:46
			it can have some shortcomings.
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:50
			Like it's not permanent. It's not a permanent
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:53
			sanitation. It's not a permanent form of purity.
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:56
			Something that we always have to work on.
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:01
			And he says that
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:04
			is to make everything for Allah
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:12
			To make Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala exclusive for
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:13
			worship.
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:16
			How do we achieve Ikhlas?
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:19
			The first is we achieve
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:20
			to our ideas
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:22
			about Allah. We learn.
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:31
			You know, you must know what
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:32
			entails.
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:34
			So the first is learning.
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:35
			That's
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:38
			why the writer of Lisan Al Arab,
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:40
			he said that it's called
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:46
			The has everything we need to know
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:47
			about
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:01
			After I know Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala,
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:05
			then that's going to inspire me to worship
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:06
			him.
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:09
			That's why it's all to that yet.
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:14
			I did not create
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:17
			jinn and human beings except to worship me.
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:26
			To know me. So Ibadah here according to
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:28
			Ibna Abbas
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:31
			means to know, to learn. Because learning is
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:34
			going to help me understand who I'm worshiping.
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:35
			And when I understand
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:37
			who I'm worshiping,
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:41
			then I will, insha Allah, have sincerity.
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:48
			The more that we
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:50
			know Allah correctly,
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:52
			the more
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:54
			our sincerity will
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:56
			be present, inshallah.
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:00
			The third is
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:03
			So after ideas,
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:05
			is my sincerity in what I do.
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:13
			Allah says about the hypocrites, they pray, but
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:15
			they pray to be seen of people. And
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:17
			that's why in this current culture,
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:21
			where everything's shared immediately, everything's
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:23
			put for likes and attention,
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:27
			This is a very dangerous time, man, for
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:29
			for for a lack of sincerity.
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:32
			Is it for the gram?
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:37
			Right? Am I doing it for the gram
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:39
			or for Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala?
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:43
			Allah
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:50
			says,
		
00:10:50 --> 00:10:53
			Say, I was commanded. I'm I'm ordered to
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:54
			worship Allah sincerely.
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:01
			You see the one who
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:03
			denies the hereafter?
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:06
			What does Allah say
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:07
			about them?
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:08
			That
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:10
			they pray
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:18
			negligent. So we want to be careful,
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:21
			especially in this age,
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:25
			where there are attempts to frame the dunya
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:28
			as the and the as the dunya.
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:32
			So not only does studying about Allah
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:57
			So I know Allah's
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:00
			that causes me
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:02
			to know who I'm worshiping.
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:06
			And then secondly, to study
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:08
			and learn about the hereafter.
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:11
			To remind myself,
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:18
			That's why Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says,
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:27
			That's why it's very it's almost impossible to
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:29
			find a page of the Quran where Allah
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:32
			subhanahu wa ta'ala is not mentioned, and the
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:34
			hereafter is not mentioned.
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:36
			To center us.
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:41
			And that's why I ask myself and everyone
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:42
			here
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:46
			to examine your space on social media.
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:56
			Something
		
00:12:57 --> 00:12:59
			But something religious.
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:01
			Make sure it's for Allah.
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:05
			And that means
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:10
			you're gonna speak the truth.
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:13
			Regardless of how many likes you get,
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:16
			regardless of how many people unfollow you,
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:22
			So
		
00:13:28 --> 00:13:29
			And then there's Ikhlas
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:31
			related to
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:32
			our
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:33
			how we feel.
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:50
			Allah says, we're gonna test you with good
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:51
			and bad.
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:54
			As a fitna. The word fitna actually means,
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:57
			to burn.
		
00:13:57 --> 00:14:00
			To to burn something to purify it like
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:02
			gold and silver. The hadith of Sayidina
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:20
			This hadith is a good hadith. Said Na'ari
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:22
			said that a person is going to be
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:22
			tested
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:26
			like gold and silver are burned.
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:29
			And this is actually one of the keys
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:29
			to Ikhlas.
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:32
			How do I interact with?
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:36
			The prophet
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:41
			said, know that if a whole nation came
		
00:14:41 --> 00:14:41
			together
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:44
			to benefit you, they could not benefit you,
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:47
			unless Allah gave them permission. If a whole
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:48
			nation came together to harm you,
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:51
			they would never be able to harm you.
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:54
			Except what Allah has prescribed.
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:03
			Al Khadah. Sheikh Ahmed Al Dardir,
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:05
			in Al Khareid, he says
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:12
			Everything happens by the decree of Allah
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:17
			Never can you can't escape it.
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:19
			Whether it's good or bad.
		
00:15:24 --> 00:15:25
			If Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala chose
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:28
			to allow us to be afflicted with difficulty,
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:33
			nobody can remove
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:49
			And this is where Muslims have a problem,
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:51
			out of all the issues of iman. That's
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:53
			why the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam in the
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:56
			hadith of saintly Jibril, he mentioned the verb
		
00:15:56 --> 00:15:56
			twice.
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:26
			He said to believe in Allah, his angels,
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:28
			his books, his messengers, the last day, and
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:29
			to believe.
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:31
			He didn't have to do that. He didn't
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:33
			have to mention the verb again. But he
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:35
			mentions the verb again because that's where most
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:37
			people will have a problem.
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:41
			And that's one of the keys of the
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:44
			to know that whatever has befallen me is
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:46
			not because Allah hates me, I ain't that
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:47
			special.
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:51
			And then whatever goodby follows me, it doesn't
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:54
			necessarily indicate I'm everything's fine.
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:56
			All that is salt on the food.
		
00:16:57 --> 00:16:58
			What matters
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:05
			is to stay with Allah.
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:07
			Wherever I am,
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:12
			Allah is with you wherever you are.
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:15
			So I should not this is not a
		
00:17:15 --> 00:17:16
			a commodified relationship.
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:19
			This is not the stock exchange. This is
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:20
			not the Nasdaq. This is not Bitcoin.
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:23
			So if things are going good,
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:25
			Allah loves me. Maybe not.
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:31
			Allah said, we will give them what they
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:32
			want,
		
00:17:32 --> 00:17:34
			but in a way that they don't understand.
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:36
			They are going to be tested by the
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:37
			good they were given.
		
00:17:45 --> 00:17:47
			And when they forgot, Allah says, what we
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:50
			sent down, we gave them everything they wanted.
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:52
			So we have to be careful that we
		
00:17:52 --> 00:17:53
			do not
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:54
			subtly
		
00:17:54 --> 00:17:55
			apply
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:56
			capitalism
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:58
			and the ideology of capitalism
		
00:17:59 --> 00:17:59
			to
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:00
			It's the opposite.
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:07
			So is not based on that.
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:09
			It doesn't matter. Good or bad.
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:15
			Doesn't matter the situation. It's not easy.
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:18
			Of course, that's not easy.
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:21
			And this is one of the keys to
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:21
			Ikhlas.
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:24
			That's why Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says,
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:30
			That in cattle, there's a sign for you.
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:31
			Two verses in Quran.
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:33
			We provide you drink
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:35
			that comes from their stomach.
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:48
			Allah says between
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:50
			the feces and the blood,
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:52
			and the cow
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:53
			came pure milk.
		
00:18:54 --> 00:18:57
			The same word. One of my teachers, Masha'Allah,
		
00:18:57 --> 00:18:58
			used to say,
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:03
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:06
			That's the believer. In this life, they walk
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:08
			between feces and blood.
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:11
			Sometimes it's bad, sometimes it's good. In blood,
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:13
			there's life. In feces, there's death.
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:15
			Hey. The good and bad times.
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:18
			And if he or she is resilient
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:19
			with bad,
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:22
			and thankful with good, they come out what?
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:27
			Listen. They came out like pure milk.
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:31
			Pure milk. Thank you so much, Mel. God
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:33
			bless you. You guys are too kind,
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:36
			man. You know, I'm getting spoiled. May Allah
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:37
			all of you.
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:41
			But I don't I don't need all
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:43
			that. Just just learn.
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:45
			Learn and ask good questions. But thank you,
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:45
			Akhi.
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:48
			What comes out of it? Pure milk,
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:51
			Which is not only pure for itself,
		
00:19:53 --> 00:19:56
			And those around it will benefit because there's
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:57
			lessons we share from trauma.
		
00:19:58 --> 00:20:01
			There's lessons we trail we share from failure.
		
00:20:01 --> 00:20:04
			There's lessons we share from success. I asked
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:05
			Sheikh Ahmadiyai from Senegal,
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:09
			how did how did you how did you
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:10
			memorize the Quran?
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:13
			How did you memorize the Quran like that?
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:16
			And as Sheikh Ahmed Diyai,
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:18
			he said,
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:20
			because I forgot it well.
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:23
			Because I forgot it well.
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:27
			Because I forgot it right. Meaning, when I
		
00:20:27 --> 00:20:28
			forgot it, I was motivated
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:30
			to
		
00:20:31 --> 00:20:32
			to not forget it.
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:34
			So the Muslim
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:35
			is able to
		
00:20:36 --> 00:20:36
			sort
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:38
			of translate or transfer
		
00:20:39 --> 00:20:40
			failure into success
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:42
			into success.
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:44
			Baraklalafiq.
		
00:20:48 --> 00:20:49
			So the Muslim
		
00:20:50 --> 00:20:53
			is able to translate those difficult times,
		
00:20:54 --> 00:20:55
			into success.
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:10
			Through those difficulties, we achieve
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:11
			that purity.
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:15
			So he said to the Imam Anawi, he
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:16
			says, The
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:20
			section on
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:28
			and making our present. And here, the language
		
00:21:28 --> 00:21:29
			of imam and Nawawi
		
00:21:30 --> 00:21:30
			is very delicate.
		
00:21:33 --> 00:21:34
			This form of the verb
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:37
			implies you have the ability to do it.
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:40
			That Allah has given you the nia to
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:41
			do it. Of course, the action,
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:53
			You didn't throw it Allah through it.
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:56
			But Allah has given us the ability to
		
00:21:56 --> 00:21:56
			choose.
		
00:22:00 --> 00:22:02
			We showed you 2 ways. Good or bad.
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:03
			It's up to you.
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:09
			People know what's right and wrong.
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:13
			So sheikhi
		
00:22:14 --> 00:22:14
			says,
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:16
			the word,
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:18
			if you're Arab, you know, you got parents.
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:19
			You said it a 1000000 times.
		
00:22:21 --> 00:22:22
			If you're married,
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:25
			You know this word. I'm present.
		
00:22:28 --> 00:22:30
			Is the same form as Islam because we
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:32
			have the ability to choose Islam.
		
00:22:35 --> 00:22:36
			That's why Ibra Matic
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:42
			and is a poem serious students should memorize
		
00:22:42 --> 00:22:43
			in morphology.
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:44
			He says,
		
00:22:56 --> 00:22:59
			Right? If you master the morphology of nouns
		
00:22:59 --> 00:23:01
			and verbs, the language the doors of language
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:02
			will open for you.
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:04
			So Ikhadar,
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:07
			also what the sheikh is saying here is
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:12
			You're responsible for this. I'm responsible for this.
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:14
			It's not something and that's why we have
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:17
			to be careful sometimes of the more extreme
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:19
			teachings in the Sufi communities where they make
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:20
			these things seem impossible.
		
00:23:21 --> 00:23:22
			You have to be a saint. You have
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:23
			to be a perfect person.
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:26
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, he
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:29
			obligated each and every one of us within
		
00:23:29 --> 00:23:29
			our own ability.
		
00:23:37 --> 00:23:39
			When it's time to worship,
		
00:23:40 --> 00:23:41
			I make myself present.
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:46
			I make myself remind myself this is for
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:46
			Allah.
		
00:23:53 --> 00:23:54
			Look how much we took just from the
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:56
			the title of the chapter, man. That's the
		
00:23:56 --> 00:23:56
			lesson.
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:00
			The word
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:04
			here are those things that demand intention
		
00:24:04 --> 00:24:05
			and action.
		
00:24:06 --> 00:24:08
			That's the difference between and
		
00:24:10 --> 00:24:13
			Inadvertent actions like this. I'm drinking tea, or
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:14
			I put my glasses down,
		
00:24:15 --> 00:24:15
			or something.
		
00:24:29 --> 00:24:30
			So the word implies
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:37
			The presence of the intention.
		
00:24:38 --> 00:24:39
			So he says
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:47
			is aam.
		
00:24:51 --> 00:24:52
			Is a universal.
		
00:25:02 --> 00:25:03
			Means a universal thing.
		
00:25:03 --> 00:25:06
			Like an umbrella. So many things come underneath
		
00:25:06 --> 00:25:08
			it. Like the word deen. If we put
		
00:25:08 --> 00:25:12
			deen, then you say, sala, thikr, siam, haj,
		
00:25:12 --> 00:25:14
			jihad, akhlaab,
		
00:25:14 --> 00:25:15
			tahara, tukulu.
		
00:25:15 --> 00:25:17
			All that is under what? Deen.
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:20
			So here, Imam al Nawawi Rahimullah
		
00:25:21 --> 00:25:23
			is teaching us something that's actually Quranic. He
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:26
			mentions a universal, and then he mentions some
		
00:25:26 --> 00:25:27
			specific
		
00:25:27 --> 00:25:28
			afrad.
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:30
			Some parts of that
		
00:25:30 --> 00:25:31
			that universal.
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:33
			For example,
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:34
			Allah
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:36
			says in the Quran,
		
00:25:44 --> 00:25:46
			He says, the angels, then he mentions 2
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:48
			angels after the angels. Why? Because the word,
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:52
			and underneath it
		
00:25:55 --> 00:25:56
			is Same thing here.
		
00:25:59 --> 00:26:00
			The
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:07
			word is a part of
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:09
			Statements are
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:11
			one part of aamah.
		
00:26:12 --> 00:26:15
			Aqwal also is part of aamah.
		
00:26:15 --> 00:26:17
			So this is called taksis.
		
00:26:23 --> 00:26:25
			This is very important when you want to
		
00:26:25 --> 00:26:26
			read classical texts.
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:30
			Sayedna Imam
		
00:26:37 --> 00:26:39
			It's a very important book. Everybody in America
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:40
			studies warakat.
		
00:26:40 --> 00:26:42
			I like to ask them. What's after warakat?
		
00:26:42 --> 00:26:43
			Nobody knows.
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:51
			There are some bigger books, man.
		
00:26:52 --> 00:26:53
			But Imam
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:54
			he says,
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:02
			The word
		
00:27:03 --> 00:27:06
			am, a universal word, is a word that
		
00:27:06 --> 00:27:08
			submerges all of its possible
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:10
			relations, all of its
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:15
			That's the difference between and if you study
		
00:27:22 --> 00:27:25
			Be patient in this class. I'm getting old.
		
00:27:25 --> 00:27:27
			I ain't hiding nothing. I'm just going to
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:29
			teach. If it's hard for you, be patient,
		
00:27:29 --> 00:27:32
			man. Push yourself. You have to raise the
		
00:27:32 --> 00:27:33
			level of literacy in America. How long are
		
00:27:33 --> 00:27:35
			we just gonna keep cheerleading one another?
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:37
			When are we gonna have our own dojos?
		
00:27:39 --> 00:27:40
			Our own madrasas?
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:42
			Our own schools? Our own scholars?
		
00:27:43 --> 00:27:44
			If we keep talking down to one another,
		
00:27:44 --> 00:27:46
			we're not gonna go nowhere. Al Akhdarri, I
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:48
			taught Akhdarri to my 4 year old daughter,
		
00:27:48 --> 00:27:49
			bro.
		
00:27:51 --> 00:27:52
			I taught it to her when she was
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:53
			8.
		
00:27:55 --> 00:27:57
			But that's what it's for.
		
00:27:57 --> 00:28:00
			Where's the Khalib? Where's the Where's the Mo'ata?
		
00:28:02 --> 00:28:03
			Seriously?
		
00:28:07 --> 00:28:09
			Now, you're in 2nd grade in Azhar.
		
00:28:10 --> 00:28:11
			When are you gonna study a
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:17
			But see,
		
00:28:18 --> 00:28:19
			an arrogant society
		
00:28:20 --> 00:28:21
			doesn't go anywhere.
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:23
			It's hard to learn.
		
00:28:25 --> 00:28:26
			So Al Baydawi says,
		
00:28:33 --> 00:28:35
			We don't have time to talk about that
		
00:28:35 --> 00:28:35
			now.
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:38
			What it means is a word that submerges
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:41
			all of the possible relationships that are acceptable.
		
00:28:41 --> 00:28:42
			For example, if we say,
		
00:28:43 --> 00:28:45
			every person in this room
		
00:28:45 --> 00:28:47
			now falls, is being submerged by the meaning
		
00:28:47 --> 00:28:48
			of Al Muslimoon.
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:49
			But if I say,
		
00:28:51 --> 00:28:52
			does
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:54
			fit under this umbrella of Al Muslimoon?
		
00:28:55 --> 00:28:56
			No.
		
00:28:58 --> 00:28:59
			So
		
00:29:01 --> 00:29:03
			this is So he says,
		
00:29:05 --> 00:29:08
			In the beginning, Sayidina Imam An Nawawi, he's
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:10
			pointing to something that
		
00:29:13 --> 00:29:15
			begin to remind the Muslims of We say
		
00:29:15 --> 00:29:16
			it again,
		
00:29:18 --> 00:29:21
			from some 70, 80 years ago. The Shumu'liyah
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:22
			of Islam.
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:26
			The comprehensive nature of Islam.
		
00:29:27 --> 00:29:27
			That
		
00:29:27 --> 00:29:29
			good is wide.
		
00:29:30 --> 00:29:32
			Not everyone has to be a sheikh. Not
		
00:29:32 --> 00:29:32
			everyone
		
00:29:33 --> 00:29:35
			has to be an imam. Everyone can play
		
00:29:35 --> 00:29:35
			their part.
		
00:29:39 --> 00:29:40
			That's why Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says,
		
00:29:47 --> 00:29:48
			Whatever
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:50
			you send forward
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:52
			from good anything,
		
00:29:54 --> 00:29:56
			you're gonna find it with Allah.
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:01
			And Sheikh, he says,
		
00:30:02 --> 00:30:03
			like
		
00:30:03 --> 00:30:05
			these things we say in
		
00:30:08 --> 00:30:09
			Salah.
		
00:30:11 --> 00:30:13
			Whatever we recite in the Quran, in Salah,
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:16
			want to make sure our intention is present.
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:19
			When we remember Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:22
			we do our best to make sure
		
00:30:22 --> 00:30:23
			our intention is there.
		
00:30:28 --> 00:30:29
			Are the feelings of the heart.
		
00:30:32 --> 00:30:33
			As well as Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says,
		
00:30:39 --> 00:30:42
			Most ulama, they said this verse. Indeed, we
		
00:30:42 --> 00:30:43
			don't We feed you for the sake of
		
00:30:43 --> 00:30:45
			Allah. We give you drink for the sake
		
00:30:45 --> 00:30:47
			of Allah. We don't want anything. We don't
		
00:30:47 --> 00:30:48
			want any reward.
		
00:30:48 --> 00:30:51
			Most ulama of tafsir, they said that's their
		
00:30:51 --> 00:30:53
			knee. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is showing us
		
00:30:53 --> 00:30:54
			what their knee was. They didn't say that
		
00:30:54 --> 00:30:55
			to them.
		
00:30:56 --> 00:30:58
			That was their heart. That's where their heart
		
00:30:58 --> 00:30:58
			was.
		
00:31:03 --> 00:31:05
			And at the end, as we stop for
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:07
			salah, then we'll come back and read the
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:07
			first,
		
00:31:08 --> 00:31:10
			hadith, insha'Allah, a few hadith.
		
00:31:10 --> 00:31:11
			Ask the brothers if they pray sunnah, if
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:13
			they can pray in the back, insha'Allah,
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:14
			so we can start.
		
00:31:14 --> 00:31:17
			And then to pray sunnah, like quickly, insha'Allah,
		
00:31:18 --> 00:31:20
			so we can jump back into it. But
		
00:31:20 --> 00:31:21
			he says
		
00:31:23 --> 00:31:24
			sisters and brothers.
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:25
			Why?
		
00:31:26 --> 00:31:28
			And this is the last lesson we take
		
00:31:28 --> 00:31:30
			from the Ta'if or the Anwan of Imam
		
00:31:30 --> 00:31:31
			Anawi.
		
00:31:32 --> 00:31:34
			Number 1 is Ikhlas is a process, not
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:36
			an event. That's the first point we made.
		
00:31:36 --> 00:31:39
			We talked about how ikhlas comes in different
		
00:31:39 --> 00:31:42
			ways, through knowledge, to worship, through qada, qadr.
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:44
			Sincerity.
		
00:31:46 --> 00:31:48
			The second we noted this idea of a
		
00:31:48 --> 00:31:50
			universal and its different parts,
		
00:31:51 --> 00:31:52
			Am and Has. This is important we start
		
00:31:52 --> 00:31:54
			to read hadith later on.
		
00:32:00 --> 00:32:01
			And then the third
		
00:32:01 --> 00:32:02
			is here.
		
00:32:03 --> 00:32:06
			That a believer should strive to limit his
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:07
			or her contradictions
		
00:32:07 --> 00:32:08
			in public and private.
		
00:32:12 --> 00:32:13
			When I'm out in the open and when
		
00:32:13 --> 00:32:14
			I'm by myself.
		
00:32:15 --> 00:32:17
			When I'm out in the open and I'm
		
00:32:17 --> 00:32:17
			by myself,
		
00:32:18 --> 00:32:21
			do I hold myself accountable? Of course, there's
		
00:32:21 --> 00:32:22
			gonna be naturally a difference
		
00:32:23 --> 00:32:25
			that's that's just part of life.
		
00:32:26 --> 00:32:28
			But like, I shouldn't be, you know, Abdul
		
00:32:28 --> 00:32:29
			Karajalani.
		
00:32:31 --> 00:32:32
			I shouldn't talk about Salahuddin,
		
00:32:33 --> 00:32:35
			and I don't care about Isla Hadini.
		
00:32:36 --> 00:32:38
			So I'm in front of the people,
		
00:32:38 --> 00:32:41
			you know, in a a a really trying
		
00:32:41 --> 00:32:42
			to portray myself as.
		
00:32:45 --> 00:32:46
			But then I go home and I abuse
		
00:32:46 --> 00:32:47
			my family,
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:49
			mistreat my children,
		
00:32:50 --> 00:32:52
			rip off my neighbors,
		
00:32:53 --> 00:32:54
			hurt people.
		
00:32:56 --> 00:32:57
			There's a contradiction
		
00:32:58 --> 00:33:00
			between how I am openly
		
00:33:01 --> 00:33:03
			and privately. And there's always going to be
		
00:33:03 --> 00:33:03
			some contradiction.
		
00:33:04 --> 00:33:06
			It's the nature of life. We ask Allah,
		
00:33:06 --> 00:33:08
			Subhanahu wa ta'ala, to forgive us. So as
		
00:33:08 --> 00:33:10
			we finish, insha'Allah, we'll come back after salah
		
00:33:10 --> 00:33:12
			and start with the ayat and the hadith.
		
00:33:13 --> 00:33:16
			And Sayyidina imam, and now he says babal
		
00:33:16 --> 00:33:16
			ikhlasi.
		
00:33:17 --> 00:33:19
			We talked about the word bab twice.
		
00:33:19 --> 00:33:21
			Ikhlas. We went through ikhlas.
		
00:33:23 --> 00:33:25
			That we have the ability to bring our
		
00:33:25 --> 00:33:26
			intention
		
00:33:26 --> 00:33:27
			forward.
		
00:33:29 --> 00:33:30
			In all of our
		
00:33:30 --> 00:33:31
			acts of worship.
		
00:33:32 --> 00:33:34
			In our statements that are related to worship.
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:37
			Related to worship.
		
00:33:40 --> 00:33:40
			Whether open
		
00:33:41 --> 00:33:42
			or in private.
		
00:34:39 --> 00:34:40
			Shal every Tuesday we meet at 7:30
		
00:34:41 --> 00:34:42
			to read from the book,
		
00:34:44 --> 00:34:46
			from Sayna Imam and Nabi.
		
00:34:49 --> 00:34:51
			We reached the first chapter. We talked about
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:54
			the the the title of the chapter. We
		
00:34:54 --> 00:34:56
			took the different lessons.
		
00:34:57 --> 00:34:58
			Babu Ikhlas.
		
00:34:59 --> 00:35:00
			Talked about what the meaning of is.
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:03
			What is
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:10
			Now how to make our present.
		
00:35:16 --> 00:35:18
			We talked about what all that means
		
00:35:18 --> 00:35:20
			from the perspective of
		
00:35:22 --> 00:35:22
			and language.
		
00:35:28 --> 00:35:29
			The absence of
		
00:35:32 --> 00:35:33
			between what I say and what I do,
		
00:35:35 --> 00:35:36
			the absence of contradictions.
		
00:35:38 --> 00:35:39
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says,
		
00:35:57 --> 00:35:59
			And now we begin, alhamdulillah,
		
00:36:00 --> 00:36:02
			with the first part of the book. And
		
00:36:02 --> 00:36:04
			the sheikh, he begins the chapter with some
		
00:36:04 --> 00:36:06
			verses of the Quran. And I mentioned this
		
00:36:06 --> 00:36:07
			to you
		
00:36:07 --> 00:36:08
			last week.
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:10
			This is unfortunately
		
00:36:10 --> 00:36:11
			a mistake
		
00:36:12 --> 00:36:13
			in print.
		
00:36:15 --> 00:36:15
			The sheikh
		
00:36:18 --> 00:36:20
			was the student of a sheikh.
		
00:36:22 --> 00:36:24
			He used to teach us and
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:26
			he taught
		
00:36:27 --> 00:36:28
			us
		
00:36:30 --> 00:36:31
			He said
		
00:36:32 --> 00:36:32
			to us,
		
00:36:37 --> 00:36:39
			The printer is not a scholar. The scholar
		
00:36:39 --> 00:36:40
			is not a printer.
		
00:36:41 --> 00:36:44
			So oftentimes we find in new prints,
		
00:36:47 --> 00:36:47
			the
		
00:36:48 --> 00:36:49
			that's written
		
00:36:50 --> 00:36:51
			is not
		
00:36:52 --> 00:36:53
			the that was written by the writer.
		
00:36:56 --> 00:36:58
			For Sayidna Imam Anawi,
		
00:36:59 --> 00:37:00
			he was from Syria.
		
00:37:01 --> 00:37:03
			And in his time,
		
00:37:03 --> 00:37:05
			the 7th century after Hijri,
		
00:37:06 --> 00:37:08
			the most predominant
		
00:37:10 --> 00:37:12
			in the Muslim world
		
00:37:13 --> 00:37:13
			is the
		
00:37:14 --> 00:37:15
			of
		
00:37:18 --> 00:37:19
			Not
		
00:37:20 --> 00:37:20
			wash, not
		
00:37:21 --> 00:37:22
			haf's, not
		
00:37:25 --> 00:37:27
			In fact, with our students that learn with
		
00:37:27 --> 00:37:27
			us the
		
00:37:29 --> 00:37:31
			usually after haf's,
		
00:37:31 --> 00:37:32
			we teach them because
		
00:37:35 --> 00:37:38
			it's easier. It's very similar to haf's.
		
00:37:38 --> 00:37:40
			That's just a FYI for
		
00:37:41 --> 00:37:42
			students of knowledge.
		
00:38:05 --> 00:38:07
			If doesn't read
		
00:38:20 --> 00:38:20
			We know
		
00:38:21 --> 00:38:23
			in only mentions 4 haraka.
		
00:38:24 --> 00:38:25
			But Saydni Imam, I'm Al Jazari,
		
00:38:26 --> 00:38:27
			and Al Tayba,
		
00:38:28 --> 00:38:29
			we know that we can read a has
		
00:38:29 --> 00:38:30
			for 2.
		
00:38:36 --> 00:38:39
			And I translated this, and I made it
		
00:38:39 --> 00:38:41
			as a book for for schools in America
		
00:38:41 --> 00:38:42
			to teach hubs correctly.
		
00:38:43 --> 00:38:45
			We have the narration of
		
00:39:07 --> 00:39:09
			What does the verse say in
		
00:39:09 --> 00:39:11
			They were not commanded. Meaning,
		
00:39:17 --> 00:39:19
			That Allah and their prophets did not command
		
00:39:19 --> 00:39:20
			them.
		
00:39:21 --> 00:39:22
			Except to worship Allah,
		
00:39:26 --> 00:39:26
			If you speak Arabic,
		
00:39:32 --> 00:39:35
			Their their heart, their state was with Allah.
		
00:39:35 --> 00:39:36
			Is like when you say,
		
00:39:40 --> 00:39:42
			how was your heart? How was your state?
		
00:39:52 --> 00:39:53
			We can teach these books to people.
		
00:39:54 --> 00:39:56
			How long are you gonna stay in Ajummiyah,
		
00:39:56 --> 00:39:56
			bro?
		
00:40:07 --> 00:40:09
			Well, when are you gonna move on beyond
		
00:40:09 --> 00:40:09
			that?
		
00:40:10 --> 00:40:11
			That's why one of my teachers to stay
		
00:40:11 --> 00:40:14
			in grammar, the first chapter is
		
00:40:15 --> 00:40:17
			The first chapter is those things that raise
		
00:40:17 --> 00:40:19
			you to remind you, keep going.
		
00:40:36 --> 00:40:37
			Is had. It's a it's a type of
		
00:40:37 --> 00:40:39
			word that shows you the state of the
		
00:40:39 --> 00:40:40
			person.
		
00:40:47 --> 00:40:49
			I gave you salams. I was angry.
		
00:40:50 --> 00:40:52
			It's called hal, my state.
		
00:40:52 --> 00:40:53
			So what is their state?
		
00:40:55 --> 00:40:57
			And if you think about the verse, Amr
		
00:40:57 --> 00:40:58
			is
		
00:41:01 --> 00:41:04
			So one verse brought together both,
		
00:41:04 --> 00:41:06
			the outer and the inner.
		
00:41:10 --> 00:41:12
			As Allah says in Surah Tawba,
		
00:41:18 --> 00:41:20
			Allah loves those who make toba and those
		
00:41:20 --> 00:41:22
			who purify. What does it mean by toba
		
00:41:22 --> 00:41:23
			is the inner
		
00:41:28 --> 00:41:31
			So he brought together the inner and the
		
00:41:31 --> 00:41:31
			outer.
		
00:41:33 --> 00:41:34
			Same thing here.
		
00:41:44 --> 00:41:44
			Allah
		
00:41:50 --> 00:41:51
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
		
00:41:52 --> 00:41:53
			Only for Allah.
		
00:41:55 --> 00:41:57
			On the way of Sayyidina Ibrahim.
		
00:42:13 --> 00:42:16
			That your your the blood and meat of
		
00:42:16 --> 00:42:19
			your sacrifice is not what's gonna reach Allah.
		
00:42:19 --> 00:42:20
			What's gonna reach Allah is a taqwa.
		
00:42:21 --> 00:42:23
			We know the taqwa is from the translated
		
00:42:24 --> 00:42:25
			into the
		
00:42:27 --> 00:42:28
			because the prophet said,
		
00:42:30 --> 00:42:31
			is here.
		
00:42:33 --> 00:42:35
			Never will that reach Allah
		
00:42:35 --> 00:42:36
			Meaning, Allah
		
00:42:38 --> 00:42:40
			Allah will not accept it.
		
00:42:43 --> 00:42:45
			Imam Masiyuti mentions that there were some people
		
00:42:45 --> 00:42:47
			in Mecca, some of those non Muslims that
		
00:42:47 --> 00:42:48
			used to take their meat and throw it
		
00:42:48 --> 00:42:49
			on the Kaaba.
		
00:42:50 --> 00:42:52
			So the new Muslims, they saw that and
		
00:42:52 --> 00:42:53
			they wanted to emulate them.
		
00:42:54 --> 00:42:55
			So So Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala revealed this
		
00:42:55 --> 00:42:56
			verse.
		
00:42:56 --> 00:42:58
			Don't get caught up in like, shallow ritual.
		
00:43:09 --> 00:43:11
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala said, like, whether you
		
00:43:11 --> 00:43:13
			show what's in your heart or you keep
		
00:43:13 --> 00:43:14
			it, Allah knows
		
00:43:17 --> 00:43:18
			it. So these verses and that's why this
		
00:43:18 --> 00:43:20
			book is really good for people who are
		
00:43:20 --> 00:43:22
			doing like Khotba's MSA
		
00:43:23 --> 00:43:24
			in local communities.
		
00:43:25 --> 00:43:28
			Because Imam An Nawawi gives you a good
		
00:43:28 --> 00:43:28
			title,
		
00:43:29 --> 00:43:30
			gives you some verses of Quran,
		
00:43:31 --> 00:43:32
			and then some ahadith.
		
00:43:33 --> 00:43:35
			I want to remind everyone again
		
00:43:36 --> 00:43:38
			that I'm not going to be explaining the
		
00:43:39 --> 00:43:39
			issues
		
00:43:40 --> 00:43:42
			related to this text because that's not the
		
00:43:42 --> 00:43:43
			reason he wrote the book.
		
00:43:45 --> 00:43:48
			Imam An Nawawi wrote this book to do
		
00:43:52 --> 00:43:54
			He wrote this book to provide evidences
		
00:43:54 --> 00:43:55
			for
		
00:43:56 --> 00:43:57
			the science of
		
00:43:58 --> 00:43:59
			Ihsan.
		
00:44:02 --> 00:44:02
			Meaning,
		
00:44:03 --> 00:44:04
			the first hadith.
		
00:44:11 --> 00:44:13
			Saydna Imam Anawi narrates this Hadith
		
00:45:02 --> 00:45:03
			This hadith is related by Bukhari and Muslim.
		
00:45:03 --> 00:45:04
			And if a hadith is related by Bukhari
		
00:45:04 --> 00:45:07
			and Muslim. And the Sahabi says, I heard
		
00:45:07 --> 00:45:09
			it. This is the most authentic hadith.
		
00:45:10 --> 00:45:11
			Because when he says,
		
00:45:12 --> 00:45:14
			it means he's not related, or she's not
		
00:45:14 --> 00:45:16
			related in the hadith by its meaning.
		
00:45:17 --> 00:45:19
			They are quoting the messenger of Allah.
		
00:45:47 --> 00:45:48
			From Saydah Amr
		
00:45:49 --> 00:45:50
			Anhu,
		
00:45:51 --> 00:45:52
			who said, I heard the messenger of Allah,
		
00:45:52 --> 00:45:55
			salallahu alayhi wa sallam say that all actions
		
00:45:55 --> 00:45:56
			are based on intentions.
		
00:45:58 --> 00:46:00
			Every single action because
		
00:46:01 --> 00:46:02
			that's why I taught it to you earlier.
		
00:46:06 --> 00:46:07
			And I told you the
		
00:46:07 --> 00:46:08
			word, is what?
		
00:46:17 --> 00:46:18
			What is the word?
		
00:46:21 --> 00:46:22
			Every action.
		
00:46:24 --> 00:46:25
			So the prophet pay
		
00:46:26 --> 00:46:27
			attention.
		
00:46:30 --> 00:46:33
			Indeed, all actions are by the intention. Is
		
00:46:33 --> 00:46:34
			that true?
		
00:46:34 --> 00:46:36
			My glasses are just like this?
		
00:46:36 --> 00:46:37
			No way, Tethr.
		
00:46:38 --> 00:46:39
			Did I make an intention for that?
		
00:46:41 --> 00:46:42
			So here,
		
00:46:43 --> 00:46:46
			we are going to introduce you to something.
		
00:46:46 --> 00:46:47
			If you write some of the things down
		
00:46:47 --> 00:46:49
			I'm teaching you now, by the end of
		
00:46:49 --> 00:46:51
			the book, you're gonna
		
00:46:51 --> 00:46:52
			know.
		
00:46:53 --> 00:46:55
			You don't need to take a class in.
		
00:46:56 --> 00:46:57
			It'll be reviewed for you.
		
00:47:01 --> 00:47:03
			Allah. Is an
		
00:47:04 --> 00:47:06
			It means every single action. So like you
		
00:47:06 --> 00:47:09
			just scratched yourself. Did you make intention for
		
00:47:09 --> 00:47:09
			that sister?
		
00:47:12 --> 00:47:14
			So here we have to do what's called,
		
00:47:16 --> 00:47:17
			According to the majority of,
		
00:47:18 --> 00:47:20
			actually all of and
		
00:47:22 --> 00:47:22
			we
		
00:47:23 --> 00:47:24
			have to make
		
00:47:25 --> 00:47:25
			here.
		
00:47:26 --> 00:47:28
			Because the prophet salallahu alaihi wasalam,
		
00:47:28 --> 00:47:29
			he's not a liar.
		
00:47:31 --> 00:47:33
			And here you learn something.
		
00:47:33 --> 00:47:35
			People say, I want Quran and Sunnah. Quran
		
00:47:35 --> 00:47:36
			and
		
00:47:36 --> 00:47:37
			Sunnah.
		
00:47:42 --> 00:47:44
			If you try to have Quran and Sunnah
		
00:47:44 --> 00:47:47
			without understanding how to interpret Quran and Sunnah,
		
00:47:47 --> 00:47:50
			you may do more damage than good.
		
00:47:50 --> 00:47:52
			I can give you an example
		
00:47:52 --> 00:47:54
			where you have to interpret the verse in
		
00:47:54 --> 00:47:55
			the Quran.
		
00:47:55 --> 00:47:58
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says in the 6th
		
00:47:58 --> 00:47:58
			verse,
		
00:48:04 --> 00:48:06
			of All you who believe, when you stand
		
00:48:11 --> 00:48:12
			When you stand
		
00:48:16 --> 00:48:17
			and When you stand,
		
00:48:17 --> 00:48:18
			then wash
		
00:48:19 --> 00:48:19
			your face.
		
00:48:21 --> 00:48:23
			To what? When you stand to pray, wash
		
00:48:23 --> 00:48:23
			your face.
		
00:48:24 --> 00:48:26
			So that means, in order for this verse
		
00:48:26 --> 00:48:27
			to make sense, what do you have to
		
00:48:27 --> 00:48:30
			do? Did you ever see anyone in your
		
00:48:30 --> 00:48:31
			life, they stood,
		
00:48:33 --> 00:48:34
			Then they started to make.
		
00:48:36 --> 00:48:38
			If you interpret this verse,
		
00:48:39 --> 00:48:40
			literally,
		
00:48:41 --> 00:48:43
			all of us are and I was wrong.
		
00:48:51 --> 00:48:52
			When you stand to pray,
		
00:48:53 --> 00:48:54
			then wash your face.
		
00:48:55 --> 00:48:56
			But somebody's going to tell me,
		
00:49:01 --> 00:49:02
			When you stand to pray means when you
		
00:49:02 --> 00:49:05
			intend to pray. Isn't that interpretation? Didn't you
		
00:49:05 --> 00:49:06
			just interpret the Quran?
		
00:49:11 --> 00:49:12
			Same thing here.
		
00:49:14 --> 00:49:15
			Every single action.
		
00:49:29 --> 00:49:31
			So there's a middle path
		
00:49:32 --> 00:49:33
			that the scholars have also took.
		
00:49:35 --> 00:49:36
			In particular,
		
00:49:38 --> 00:49:38
			between
		
00:49:40 --> 00:49:41
			hyper liberalism
		
00:49:42 --> 00:49:44
			and irrational interpretation.
		
00:49:45 --> 00:49:46
			Both are a problem.
		
00:49:47 --> 00:49:49
			There was a group in in early times
		
00:49:49 --> 00:49:52
			of Islam, they said every single letter of
		
00:49:52 --> 00:49:52
			the Quran,
		
00:49:57 --> 00:49:59
			Even they said, anybody who says that there
		
00:49:59 --> 00:50:00
			is
		
00:50:01 --> 00:50:02
			a Anyone who said that there's not a
		
00:50:02 --> 00:50:05
			word in the Quran that has an interpretation,
		
00:50:05 --> 00:50:06
			it's
		
00:50:06 --> 00:50:07
			It's
		
00:50:07 --> 00:50:08
			the opposite.
		
00:50:09 --> 00:50:10
			In the middle,
		
00:50:13 --> 00:50:16
			Alhamdulillah also, they agree with Alhamdulillah on this.
		
00:50:28 --> 00:50:30
			Here So there has to be an interpretation.
		
00:50:34 --> 00:50:35
			This is called Means interpretation
		
00:50:36 --> 00:50:36
			has to happen
		
00:50:37 --> 00:50:38
			for us to
		
00:50:38 --> 00:50:41
			preserve one of the foundations of Islamic belief.
		
00:50:41 --> 00:50:42
			What is that foundation?
		
00:50:43 --> 00:50:45
			The honor and majesty and dignity of
		
00:50:53 --> 00:50:55
			In Islamic law,
		
00:50:55 --> 00:50:57
			you're gonna want to write this down if
		
00:50:57 --> 00:50:58
			you plan to come every time.
		
00:51:00 --> 00:51:01
			We have 3 types of
		
00:51:04 --> 00:51:06
			issues that words point
		
00:51:09 --> 00:51:10
			to. The first is
		
00:51:15 --> 00:51:15
			is a plate.
		
00:51:17 --> 00:51:17
			So,
		
00:51:19 --> 00:51:20
			milk,
		
00:51:21 --> 00:51:22
			stacked on top of each other.
		
00:51:25 --> 00:51:27
			Means the word itself and its meaning are
		
00:51:27 --> 00:51:28
			the same.
		
00:51:29 --> 00:51:30
			Like Allah.
		
00:51:34 --> 00:51:35
			The second is called,
		
00:51:37 --> 00:51:40
			means part of the meaning aligns with the
		
00:51:40 --> 00:51:42
			word. I'm gonna give you some examples in
		
00:51:42 --> 00:51:42
			the future.
		
00:51:44 --> 00:51:46
			And the third is,
		
00:51:49 --> 00:51:51
			Which means that you are not allowed to
		
00:51:51 --> 00:51:54
			leave the meaning in its literal form,
		
00:51:54 --> 00:51:56
			or it will contradict one of the foundations
		
00:51:56 --> 00:51:57
			of Islam.
		
00:51:58 --> 00:52:00
			Therefore, you have to interpret it.
		
00:52:05 --> 00:52:08
			And you That's why it's called
		
00:52:09 --> 00:52:12
			I know this is hard for you, but
		
00:52:12 --> 00:52:13
			we ain't here to chilli.
		
00:52:15 --> 00:52:16
			One time I taught a class, someone came
		
00:52:16 --> 00:52:18
			to me and said, I'm so angry.
		
00:52:18 --> 00:52:20
			I said, what? I never heard this before.
		
00:52:20 --> 00:52:21
			That's why you're angry.
		
00:52:22 --> 00:52:24
			You just wanna hear everything you know.
		
00:52:25 --> 00:52:27
			You're the kind of person looks at the
		
00:52:27 --> 00:52:29
			score before the game is over. Like, before
		
00:52:29 --> 00:52:31
			you watch the game, you know Lamar threw
		
00:52:31 --> 00:52:31
			an interception.
		
00:52:35 --> 00:52:36
			For Saydee Imam Al Aqdari,
		
00:52:38 --> 00:52:39
			in this important poem, in
		
00:52:42 --> 00:52:42
			in logic,
		
00:52:45 --> 00:52:46
			he
		
00:52:53 --> 00:52:53
			says,
		
00:53:08 --> 00:53:10
			The writer of Al Akhdari in the
		
00:53:11 --> 00:53:13
			that we taught last year here in the
		
00:53:13 --> 00:53:14
			in the park.
		
00:53:15 --> 00:53:16
			He says,
		
00:53:32 --> 00:53:35
			So he mentions these three type of evidences
		
00:53:35 --> 00:53:37
			that words direct us to.
		
00:53:40 --> 00:53:41
			This is meaning,
		
00:53:41 --> 00:53:43
			there's no way we can say every single
		
00:53:43 --> 00:53:44
			action has intention.
		
00:53:46 --> 00:53:49
			Because every single action doesn't. So that means
		
00:53:49 --> 00:53:50
			there's something missing.
		
00:53:56 --> 00:53:57
			Righteous actions
		
00:53:59 --> 00:54:00
			are rewarded
		
00:54:01 --> 00:54:02
			based on their intention.
		
00:54:12 --> 00:54:15
			Look in the books of. What's the job
		
00:54:15 --> 00:54:15
			of?
		
00:54:17 --> 00:54:20
			Largely, the job of is to make clear
		
00:54:20 --> 00:54:22
			terms that people find confusing.
		
00:54:23 --> 00:54:25
			That's really the major job of to understand.
		
00:54:30 --> 00:54:32
			You have to understand me.
		
00:54:33 --> 00:54:36
			So any type of idea, activism.
		
00:54:37 --> 00:54:38
			Oh, here we go.
		
00:54:38 --> 00:54:39
			Politics.
		
00:54:40 --> 00:54:41
			Any type
		
00:54:42 --> 00:54:42
			of
		
00:54:43 --> 00:54:45
			Those are all words which are ambiguous. How
		
00:54:45 --> 00:54:47
			do we define them and filter them to
		
00:54:47 --> 00:54:50
			make sure that they align on our Sharia
		
00:54:50 --> 00:54:51
			compliant
		
00:54:51 --> 00:54:53
			is the job of
		
00:55:00 --> 00:55:01
			Righteous actions.
		
00:55:02 --> 00:55:05
			Not everything demands a niyyah. Why go to
		
00:55:05 --> 00:55:06
			the books of Fiqh? Go to the chapter
		
00:55:06 --> 00:55:07
			on Nikah,
		
00:55:07 --> 00:55:09
			the arkan of nikah,
		
00:55:09 --> 00:55:10
			that it shouldn't be secret.
		
00:55:12 --> 00:55:14
			That there should be witnesses.
		
00:55:15 --> 00:55:17
			That there should be acceptance on both sides
		
00:55:17 --> 00:55:18
			and nobody's forced,
		
00:55:18 --> 00:55:20
			that there's a and
		
00:55:21 --> 00:55:21
			there's
		
00:55:23 --> 00:55:24
			a proposal.
		
00:55:25 --> 00:55:26
			If you could look at the chapter on,
		
00:55:27 --> 00:55:27
			do you find?
		
00:55:29 --> 00:55:29
			No.
		
00:55:30 --> 00:55:31
			Not even in the of.
		
00:55:39 --> 00:55:41
			In the pure sense,
		
00:55:43 --> 00:55:44
			In the
		
00:55:44 --> 00:55:47
			secondary sense, yeah, generally, it's an act of
		
00:55:47 --> 00:55:49
			worship, But not an act of worship that
		
00:55:49 --> 00:55:52
			Allah has commanded us we do, that we
		
00:55:52 --> 00:55:55
			don't necessarily understand. Like for example, salah. When
		
00:55:55 --> 00:55:56
			I first became Muslim, I said, why do
		
00:55:56 --> 00:55:58
			you guys start standing?
		
00:55:59 --> 00:56:00
			Why don't you start at sujood?
		
00:56:03 --> 00:56:05
			Because Allah commanded us to stand first.
		
00:56:08 --> 00:56:10
			Why why like your face? Why this? Why
		
00:56:10 --> 00:56:11
			don't we watch other things?
		
00:56:13 --> 00:56:13
			It's not
		
00:56:14 --> 00:56:15
			demands intention.
		
00:56:16 --> 00:56:18
			But something like, and that's why there's a
		
00:56:18 --> 00:56:20
			difference of opinion on and even wudu, by
		
00:56:20 --> 00:56:21
			the way, with the hanafeez.
		
00:56:23 --> 00:56:25
			Is there a benefit that we can understand
		
00:56:26 --> 00:56:27
			or not?
		
00:56:31 --> 00:56:32
			So worship,
		
00:56:35 --> 00:56:37
			and everybody will have what he or she
		
00:56:37 --> 00:56:38
			intended for.
		
00:56:51 --> 00:56:51
			This hadith
		
00:56:52 --> 00:56:53
			in America, we related to you with one
		
00:56:53 --> 00:56:54
			of the shortest
		
00:56:55 --> 00:56:55
			in the world.
		
00:57:45 --> 00:57:45
			No problem.
		
00:57:46 --> 00:57:49
			Doesn't mean anything. What matters is how we
		
00:57:49 --> 00:57:49
			act.
		
00:57:50 --> 00:57:51
			For ajaz and Allah
		
00:57:52 --> 00:57:54
			That's the more important thing. Allah gave us
		
00:57:54 --> 00:57:55
			a license to live.
		
00:57:56 --> 00:57:57
			Okay.
		
00:57:57 --> 00:57:59
			Muslim. Each book we go through
		
00:58:06 --> 00:58:07
			Every time we read a book of hadith,
		
00:58:07 --> 00:58:10
			I'll give you the chain of hadith back
		
00:58:10 --> 00:58:11
			to the writer.
		
00:58:11 --> 00:58:13
			You can have it as a, you know,
		
00:58:13 --> 00:58:15
			like blessings. Don't go and start teaching.
		
00:58:17 --> 00:58:18
			But Alhamdulillah.
		
00:58:21 --> 00:58:23
			The next hadith from
		
00:58:29 --> 00:58:30
			Aisha.
		
00:58:30 --> 00:58:31
			And of course, she's
		
00:58:33 --> 00:58:34
			Umma Abdulahi.
		
00:58:34 --> 00:58:37
			She was named Umma Abdulahi after her nephew.
		
00:58:37 --> 00:58:38
			And when she died, she was buried by
		
00:58:38 --> 00:58:39
			her 5 nephews.
		
00:58:40 --> 00:58:43
			And say, Abu Herrera, he prayed her Janazah.
		
00:58:45 --> 00:58:47
			And it's enough for us to say about
		
00:58:48 --> 00:58:50
			that she's the one.
		
00:58:52 --> 00:58:54
			One of our teachers used to say, Allah
		
00:58:54 --> 00:58:56
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, he defended Yusuf
		
00:58:56 --> 00:58:57
			with a dream.
		
00:58:58 --> 00:59:01
			He defended Miriam with her son.
		
00:59:01 --> 00:59:03
			But when he defended Aisha, he did it
		
00:59:03 --> 00:59:04
			with his words.
		
00:59:46 --> 00:59:48
			Sayedha Aisha said that the prophet sallallahu alaihi
		
00:59:48 --> 00:59:50
			wa sallam said, there'll be an army. Pay
		
00:59:50 --> 00:59:50
			attention.
		
00:59:52 --> 00:59:52
			He uses
		
00:59:53 --> 00:59:55
			to show us the greatness of jihad.
		
00:59:55 --> 00:59:57
			Even though these people are wrong.
		
00:59:57 --> 00:59:58
			But to fight,
		
00:59:59 --> 01:00:01
			to struggle on the cause of something is
		
01:00:01 --> 01:00:02
			not easy. For.
		
01:00:04 --> 01:00:06
			Also, he says, because this is
		
01:00:08 --> 01:00:09
			from the signs of the hour. He doesn't
		
01:00:09 --> 01:00:11
			say who this is.
		
01:00:11 --> 01:00:13
			In the future, we're gonna talk about some
		
01:00:13 --> 01:00:15
			of the rules for understanding
		
01:00:16 --> 01:00:19
			For example, it's not allowed to rush them.
		
01:00:19 --> 01:00:23
			So like in the They're gonna build high
		
01:00:23 --> 01:00:25
			buildings. Some people said, you know, in the
		
01:00:25 --> 01:00:27
			gulf, we should stop people from building high
		
01:00:27 --> 01:00:30
			buildings. This is incorrect understanding of the text.
		
01:00:31 --> 01:00:31
			Also,
		
01:00:32 --> 01:00:33
			and this is where you find some time
		
01:00:33 --> 01:00:35
			on TikTok, and Instagram, and other places,
		
01:00:36 --> 01:00:37
			the
		
01:00:37 --> 01:00:38
			the foundation
		
01:00:38 --> 01:00:39
			in applying
		
01:00:40 --> 01:00:42
			any hadith about the signs of the hour
		
01:00:42 --> 01:00:45
			to a situation in front of us is
		
01:00:45 --> 01:00:46
			rejection, not acceptance. Man, I heard this yesterday,
		
01:00:46 --> 01:00:48
			bro. They fixed the metro. This is Man,
		
01:00:48 --> 01:00:50
			I heard this yesterday, bro. They fixed the
		
01:00:50 --> 01:00:50
			metro.
		
01:00:51 --> 01:00:52
			It's a sign of the hour.
		
01:00:56 --> 01:00:57
			Right? No, man.
		
01:00:58 --> 01:01:00
			Corner? You know the corner?
		
01:01:00 --> 01:01:02
			The corner. Right? In the hadith said, corner?
		
01:01:05 --> 01:01:07
			People be taking this all kind of places.
		
01:01:08 --> 01:01:09
			Like
		
01:01:14 --> 01:01:17
			The the the basis is to reject them.
		
01:01:17 --> 01:01:19
			Reject anyone that tries to apply it to
		
01:01:19 --> 01:01:22
			something else. Until it's clear,
		
01:01:22 --> 01:01:25
			completely clear that's the case.
		
01:01:27 --> 01:01:29
			The third is not allowed to take
		
01:01:30 --> 01:01:32
			from the hadith to talk about the signs
		
01:01:32 --> 01:01:34
			of the hour. Like for example, when it's
		
01:01:34 --> 01:01:35
			haram to build buildings.
		
01:01:36 --> 01:01:38
			It's not what those are for.
		
01:01:42 --> 01:01:42
			Prophet,
		
01:01:45 --> 01:01:46
			there will be an army
		
01:01:48 --> 01:01:48
			that
		
01:01:49 --> 01:01:51
			seeks to fight against the And
		
01:01:56 --> 01:01:57
			when they reach the means, the part of
		
01:01:57 --> 01:01:58
			the desert.
		
01:02:00 --> 01:02:02
			Why they call the desert Badia? Because that's
		
01:02:02 --> 01:02:04
			where you go to never be seen again.
		
01:02:04 --> 01:02:06
			Today, I was playing with my daughter in
		
01:02:06 --> 01:02:08
			the forest and my father-in-law asked me, where
		
01:02:08 --> 01:02:09
			did you guys say?
		
01:02:11 --> 01:02:14
			So you call The jungle is a place
		
01:02:14 --> 01:02:17
			of ghiyab, to be unseen. Look at the
		
01:02:17 --> 01:02:20
			Arabs, This is their balaga, as Georgiani mentions
		
01:02:20 --> 01:02:22
			in that they name something by what it
		
01:02:22 --> 01:02:23
			does.
		
01:02:23 --> 01:02:25
			Like to call them a sayara
		
01:02:26 --> 01:02:28
			because you you move in it.
		
01:02:28 --> 01:02:29
			Because you
		
01:02:30 --> 01:02:31
			you fly in
		
01:02:32 --> 01:02:33
			it. That's the nature of their rhetoric. So
		
01:02:33 --> 01:02:34
			here
		
01:02:39 --> 01:02:39
			The
		
01:02:40 --> 01:02:41
			first and last of them are all gonna
		
01:02:41 --> 01:02:43
			be destroyed, swallowed in the earth.
		
01:02:44 --> 01:02:45
			Pay attention to these sisters, and it's great
		
01:02:45 --> 01:02:47
			to have you here. Welcome
		
01:02:50 --> 01:02:52
			say the Aisha said,
		
01:02:54 --> 01:02:56
			The first of them in the land, all
		
01:02:56 --> 01:02:57
			of them gonna be destroyed?
		
01:03:00 --> 01:03:02
			And there's from them those people, they're not
		
01:03:02 --> 01:03:03
			from them.
		
01:03:06 --> 01:03:07
			Those people that were doing business, they saw
		
01:03:07 --> 01:03:09
			an army, they wanted to sell some, you
		
01:03:09 --> 01:03:11
			know, hate LeBron shirts or something.
		
01:03:12 --> 01:03:13
			There were some people there. They were, you
		
01:03:13 --> 01:03:16
			know, just around. They were incidentally there or
		
01:03:16 --> 01:03:18
			they were forced another narration says they were
		
01:03:18 --> 01:03:20
			forced to be with them.
		
01:03:20 --> 01:03:23
			Here we see the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa
		
01:03:23 --> 01:03:25
			sallam teaching us a very important lesson
		
01:03:26 --> 01:03:27
			that we're gonna take, and I want you
		
01:03:27 --> 01:03:29
			to take this lesson with me. It's good
		
01:03:29 --> 01:03:31
			to ask me questions.
		
01:03:33 --> 01:03:36
			It's not a sign of a lack of
		
01:03:36 --> 01:03:37
			that you don't ask questions.
		
01:03:38 --> 01:03:40
			Had to say to Aisha, she said,
		
01:03:43 --> 01:03:43
			All of them.
		
01:03:47 --> 01:03:48
			And the prophet
		
01:03:49 --> 01:03:50
			he doesn't get offended.
		
01:03:53 --> 01:03:54
			You know who I am?
		
01:03:55 --> 01:03:56
			You know I'm
		
01:03:57 --> 01:03:57
			I'm sheikh. I'm
		
01:03:58 --> 01:04:00
			I'm this. This is the danger of knowledge
		
01:04:00 --> 01:04:03
			now in the contemporary era. Instead of encouraging
		
01:04:03 --> 01:04:05
			students to be in awe of Allah, some
		
01:04:05 --> 01:04:07
			people want their students to be in awe
		
01:04:07 --> 01:04:07
			of them.
		
01:04:08 --> 01:04:09
			That's not good.
		
01:04:11 --> 01:04:13
			And when your students ask you questions,
		
01:04:14 --> 01:04:17
			it's not because they're bad people, it's because
		
01:04:17 --> 01:04:19
			they're caring people.
		
01:04:20 --> 01:04:21
			They are thinkers.
		
01:04:23 --> 01:04:25
			I don't want anyone to give their brother
		
01:04:25 --> 01:04:26
			a hard time earlier.
		
01:04:27 --> 01:04:29
			You know, the brother that was here.
		
01:04:30 --> 01:04:32
			Be nice to him, man. Love him.
		
01:04:32 --> 01:04:34
			It doesn't bother me. Alhamdulillah.
		
01:04:35 --> 01:04:36
			I got my water.
		
01:04:38 --> 01:04:41
			Yeah. And I know. And I'm so thankful
		
01:04:41 --> 01:04:42
			for how you
		
01:04:42 --> 01:04:44
			you mercifully handled that situation.
		
01:04:46 --> 01:04:46
			Touched me.
		
01:04:52 --> 01:04:53
			Here we go again. I'm a make another
		
01:04:53 --> 01:04:56
			guy mad at me, man. Can't do nothing
		
01:04:56 --> 01:04:56
			right tonight.
		
01:04:59 --> 01:04:59
			Barakalofik.
		
01:05:01 --> 01:05:02
			And
		
01:05:02 --> 01:05:04
			how you how you
		
01:05:05 --> 01:05:07
			helped him, it like, impacted me.
		
01:05:09 --> 01:05:11
			Everybody's traumatized. To be Muslim is to be
		
01:05:11 --> 01:05:12
			traumatized.
		
01:05:12 --> 01:05:14
			To to to be in this community at
		
01:05:14 --> 01:05:16
			times, you deal with a lot of challenges.
		
01:05:16 --> 01:05:18
			Women especially, to have to navigate the fact
		
01:05:18 --> 01:05:20
			that you come and sit at the bottom
		
01:05:20 --> 01:05:21
			of the masjid. Like, really? What's wrong with
		
01:05:21 --> 01:05:23
			that? It ain't about nobody.
		
01:05:24 --> 01:05:25
			People want to learn.
		
01:05:26 --> 01:05:28
			So when your students ask you questions,
		
01:05:28 --> 01:05:30
			and maybe sometimes they're a little rude. They
		
01:05:30 --> 01:05:31
			don't know what you know. They didn't sit
		
01:05:31 --> 01:05:34
			who you sit with. They haven't been around
		
01:05:34 --> 01:05:36
			scholars who refine them.
		
01:05:36 --> 01:05:38
			I remember after I memorized the Quran,
		
01:05:38 --> 01:05:40
			Sheikh Ahmed, he said, man,
		
01:05:41 --> 01:05:42
			I don't have to see you no more.
		
01:05:43 --> 01:05:45
			I said, was that that tough? He said,
		
01:05:45 --> 01:05:47
			in the beginning bro, you was you was
		
01:05:47 --> 01:05:49
			hard to deal with, man. You were rough.
		
01:05:50 --> 01:05:51
			Right? Because you're fresh
		
01:05:53 --> 01:05:54
			off the not the boat.
		
01:05:54 --> 01:05:56
			F o j, baby.
		
01:05:57 --> 01:05:58
			It was like in the beginning, you were
		
01:05:58 --> 01:06:01
			you were almost intolerable to teach. Sheikh will
		
01:06:01 --> 01:06:02
			correct me. I was like, I didn't make
		
01:06:02 --> 01:06:04
			no mistake. I said that.
		
01:06:06 --> 01:06:08
			Sheikh, he said one time he said to
		
01:06:08 --> 01:06:10
			me, who's the Sheikh? Told me, I'm not
		
01:06:10 --> 01:06:10
			teaching you anymore. You don't respect me. I
		
01:06:10 --> 01:06:11
			would be nobody.
		
01:06:21 --> 01:06:23
			So here we see Sayida Aisha,
		
01:06:25 --> 01:06:27
			And she has edeb, oh messenger of
		
01:06:30 --> 01:06:31
			Allah. And also we see something.
		
01:06:32 --> 01:06:34
			The Sahaba they have within them,
		
01:06:35 --> 01:06:36
			the nature
		
01:06:36 --> 01:06:37
			of justice.
		
01:06:38 --> 01:06:40
			Her reaction is a reaction of injustice.
		
01:06:41 --> 01:06:43
			How could all of them be destroyed?
		
01:06:43 --> 01:06:45
			Some of them, they did nothing wrong.
		
01:06:48 --> 01:06:49
			And the prophet said,
		
01:06:53 --> 01:06:54
			Here's the point of the hadith.
		
01:06:54 --> 01:06:56
			The first of them and the last of
		
01:06:56 --> 01:06:58
			them will be destroyed, but they will be
		
01:06:58 --> 01:07:00
			resurrected according to their
		
01:07:01 --> 01:07:01
			Their intention.
		
01:07:03 --> 01:07:04
			Our scholars, they taught us a very important
		
01:07:04 --> 01:07:05
			lesson as we finish
		
01:07:06 --> 01:07:07
			tonight about this hadith.
		
01:07:08 --> 01:07:10
			Be careful who you hang out with, man.
		
01:07:11 --> 01:07:12
			Because you know,
		
01:07:13 --> 01:07:14
			might be in a bad situation,
		
01:07:15 --> 01:07:16
			and you die.
		
01:07:18 --> 01:07:19
			And I die.
		
01:07:20 --> 01:07:22
			Can you imagine? Think about right now, some
		
01:07:22 --> 01:07:23
			of the worst places we've been and if
		
01:07:23 --> 01:07:24
			we died there.
		
01:07:25 --> 01:07:27
			And then we were resurrected, even though we'd
		
01:07:27 --> 01:07:29
			be judged by our intention. And this doesn't
		
01:07:29 --> 01:07:31
			apply to those of us who have like
		
01:07:31 --> 01:07:33
			non Muslim family. You know, sometimes we gotta
		
01:07:33 --> 01:07:36
			navigate some ratchetness, man. Because that's our family,
		
01:07:36 --> 01:07:36
			and
		
01:07:37 --> 01:07:38
			is a different discussion,
		
01:07:39 --> 01:07:41
			connecting and keeping ties. But
		
01:07:50 --> 01:07:51
			you're about 75%
		
01:07:51 --> 01:07:53
			of the best and worst to the people
		
01:07:53 --> 01:07:54
			you hang around with.
		
01:07:54 --> 01:07:56
			Like if you're being nice.
		
01:07:57 --> 01:07:58
			And the prophet said,
		
01:08:02 --> 01:08:04
			Everybody's on the religion of his or her
		
01:08:04 --> 01:08:04
			friends.
		
01:08:06 --> 01:08:08
			So this hadith, we take a number of
		
01:08:08 --> 01:08:11
			lessons. Number 1, it's important for nonprofits, like
		
01:08:11 --> 01:08:12
			the Imam has done here. I'm so happy
		
01:08:12 --> 01:08:13
			to see this, man.
		
01:08:14 --> 01:08:15
			You guys doing a great job. May Allah
		
01:08:15 --> 01:08:18
			bless you. Daughter Hijra has always been a
		
01:08:18 --> 01:08:18
			historic.
		
01:08:19 --> 01:08:21
			The Talib family, we all, you know, there's
		
01:08:21 --> 01:08:22
			love. May Allah bless them.
		
01:08:27 --> 01:08:29
			And the others who contributed, Sheikh Abu Bakr,
		
01:08:29 --> 01:08:30
			so many great
		
01:08:31 --> 01:08:31
			historical figures in the
		
01:08:32 --> 01:08:32
			community.
		
01:08:38 --> 01:08:39
			And,
		
01:08:44 --> 01:08:44
			and
		
01:08:45 --> 01:08:48
			Sheikh Baha. So many great people have contributed
		
01:08:48 --> 01:08:50
			to this moment. Now the imam is doing
		
01:08:50 --> 01:08:51
			a wonderful job.
		
01:08:52 --> 01:08:54
			So the first is we see here the
		
01:08:54 --> 01:08:55
			importance of strategic
		
01:08:56 --> 01:08:57
			entry points to learn.
		
01:08:57 --> 01:08:59
			Seita Aisha feels she can ask a question.
		
01:09:01 --> 01:09:02
			She doesn't have to You know, when I
		
01:09:02 --> 01:09:04
			first started at NYU, I was teaching tafsir.
		
01:09:04 --> 01:09:06
			My apologies for taking too long. This time
		
01:09:06 --> 01:09:08
			thing is a little bit off, man. Maybe
		
01:09:08 --> 01:09:09
			we should start after Aisha.
		
01:09:12 --> 01:09:13
			Say to Aisha,
		
01:09:13 --> 01:09:15
			before they shut it down.
		
01:09:16 --> 01:09:17
			Say to Aisha,
		
01:09:17 --> 01:09:19
			She teaches you a strategic entry point. When
		
01:09:19 --> 01:09:21
			I started teaching Tufts here at NYU, they
		
01:09:21 --> 01:09:23
			would raise their hands to Muslims. I'm sorry.
		
01:09:24 --> 01:09:25
			I'm sorry.
		
01:09:25 --> 01:09:26
			Every time I'm sorry.
		
01:09:27 --> 01:09:28
			It's what you're sorry for. I'm sorry I
		
01:09:28 --> 01:09:30
			have to ask a question. I said,
		
01:09:31 --> 01:09:33
			What's wrong with asking a question? So we
		
01:09:33 --> 01:09:34
			made a rule. I'm gonna make that rule
		
01:09:34 --> 01:09:37
			here. Whoever says sorry, unless it's a mean
		
01:09:37 --> 01:09:38
			question,
		
01:09:38 --> 01:09:40
			whoever says sorry, you have to donate
		
01:09:40 --> 01:09:42
			$5 to the masjid.
		
01:09:43 --> 01:09:45
			After that, no more sorry. Then one
		
01:09:46 --> 01:09:46
			time,
		
01:09:47 --> 01:09:48
			I'm
		
01:09:49 --> 01:09:49
			gonna
		
01:09:50 --> 01:09:52
			After that, no more sorry.
		
01:09:53 --> 01:09:55
			Then one time, I said sorry.
		
01:09:55 --> 01:09:57
			And they tried to I ain't paying nothing,
		
01:09:57 --> 01:09:57
			bro.
		
01:09:59 --> 01:10:00
			The next lesson that we take from the
		
01:10:00 --> 01:10:01
			hadith is,
		
01:10:02 --> 01:10:04
			the signs of the hour.
		
01:10:09 --> 01:10:11
			And then the last lesson that we took
		
01:10:13 --> 01:10:15
			is be careful you hang out with.
		
01:10:16 --> 01:10:18
			Look at your friends, man. It doesn't mean
		
01:10:18 --> 01:10:20
			they have to be Muslim. Sometimes, Muslims, unfortunately,
		
01:10:20 --> 01:10:21
			could be worse than
		
01:10:22 --> 01:10:24
			non Muslims. We're talking about quality of friends.
		
01:10:24 --> 01:10:26
			And we'll talk about later on what are
		
01:10:26 --> 01:10:27
			those qualities. There's a section.
		
01:10:28 --> 01:10:30
			In the book, Inshallah, next week we're going
		
01:10:30 --> 01:10:31
			to finish the whole chapter.
		
01:10:32 --> 01:10:32
			Inshallah
		
01:10:33 --> 01:10:33
			of Ikhlas,
		
01:10:34 --> 01:10:36
			and then after that, move to a Tawba.
		
01:10:37 --> 01:10:37
			Repentance
		
01:10:42 --> 01:10:45
			If there's any questions, we have 4 minutes.
		
01:10:46 --> 01:10:47
			6 minutes?
		
01:10:48 --> 01:10:49
			5 minutes.
		
01:11:01 --> 01:11:02
			Yeah. Right after Maghrib.
		
01:11:03 --> 01:11:03
			Yeah.
		
01:11:04 --> 01:11:06
			Yeah. We can start right after Maghrib.
		
01:11:08 --> 01:11:09
			It's maybe easier. Yeah.
		
01:11:12 --> 01:11:12
			Saab.
		
01:11:13 --> 01:11:15
			I have a new baby girl, Shaykh. I'm
		
01:11:15 --> 01:11:17
			on the night shift, Shay. You want to
		
01:11:17 --> 01:11:19
			be my my nanny?
		
01:11:19 --> 01:11:20
			I can give you
		
01:11:24 --> 01:11:25
			She's actually really good. I just don't have
		
01:11:25 --> 01:11:26
			what she wants.
		
01:11:27 --> 01:11:29
			She wants what I don't have.
		
01:11:30 --> 01:11:31
			So, let's, you know,
		
01:11:31 --> 01:11:33
			for all of our mothers and fathers. Any
		
01:11:33 --> 01:11:35
			other questions, before we,
		
01:11:37 --> 01:11:37
			finish?
		
01:11:38 --> 01:11:39
			Sisters, any questions?
		
01:11:41 --> 01:11:41
			Yes, ma'am?
		
01:11:45 --> 01:11:47
			Yeah. That's a great question. So with the
		
01:11:47 --> 01:11:48
			knowledge of Allah,
		
01:11:48 --> 01:11:50
			she's asking where should you start?
		
01:11:51 --> 01:11:52
			The best is the Quran.
		
01:11:54 --> 01:11:56
			And let the Quran speak to you.
		
01:11:56 --> 01:11:58
			And you know, sensory deprivation,
		
01:11:59 --> 01:12:01
			this is really how we should sit with
		
01:12:01 --> 01:12:03
			the Quran. We shouldn't worry what the community
		
01:12:03 --> 01:12:05
			is thinking, what other people are thinking, what
		
01:12:05 --> 01:12:07
			my parents, whatever that. Just be with Allah.
		
01:12:08 --> 01:12:09
			And then you can read like a basic
		
01:12:09 --> 01:12:10
			text in.
		
01:12:12 --> 01:12:13
			I know Sheikh,
		
01:12:13 --> 01:12:15
			Imam is going to be teaching something like
		
01:12:15 --> 01:12:17
			that. That will give you some of the
		
01:12:17 --> 01:12:19
			frameworks to appreciate what the Quran says. And
		
01:12:19 --> 01:12:21
			if you have any questions about the Quran,
		
01:12:22 --> 01:12:24
			you utilize those strategic entry points and you
		
01:12:24 --> 01:12:26
			have, Masha'Allah, in this community.
		
01:12:26 --> 01:12:29
			Great scholars of the Quran. Look tonight, Masha'Allah.
		
01:12:30 --> 01:12:32
			Was like man.
		
01:12:32 --> 01:12:33
			Right? It was nice.
		
01:12:34 --> 01:12:35
			It's very beautiful.
		
01:12:36 --> 01:12:38
			So you have people here, you have access
		
01:12:38 --> 01:12:40
			to. That you If you have any questions,
		
01:12:40 --> 01:12:42
			you can ask them. And the best translation
		
01:12:43 --> 01:12:45
			I've seen is the one of Mustafa Khattab,
		
01:12:46 --> 01:12:49
			Doctor Mustafa Khattab, the clear Quran. It's really
		
01:12:49 --> 01:12:50
			good. Mashallah.
		
01:12:51 --> 01:12:52
			Any other questions? I think we have 1
		
01:12:52 --> 01:12:53
			minute
		
01:12:54 --> 01:12:57
			before the door shut. Then all our cars
		
01:12:57 --> 01:12:58
			are gonna get towed.
		
01:12:58 --> 01:13:00
			And be in trouble. But I think the
		
01:13:00 --> 01:13:01
			imam is here, so we should be good.
		
01:13:02 --> 01:13:03
			Any other questions?
		
01:13:04 --> 01:13:06
			So next week we'll start after,
		
01:13:08 --> 01:13:09
			Maghrib Sharda.
