You're live.

00:01:56 --> 00:01:57

Upon our beloved messenger,

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

Muhammad

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

upon his family, his companions,

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

those who follow him until the end of

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

time.

00:02:08 --> 00:02:10

And in my

00:02:11 --> 00:02:12

asking Allah

00:02:13 --> 00:02:14

to unite us

00:02:15 --> 00:02:18

with the beloved Messenger Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

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

as we believe in him and haven't seen

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

him.

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26

That's a very important concept for us as

00:02:26 --> 00:02:27

we

00:02:27 --> 00:02:29

as a community go through

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

difficult times.

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

The prophet

00:02:35 --> 00:02:37

is related to have said

00:02:37 --> 00:02:39

and I want you to listen to this

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

very carefully

00:02:40 --> 00:02:43

and and feel the hope that it gives

00:02:43 --> 00:02:44

you. Okay?

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

The prophet

00:02:47 --> 00:02:48

has said

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

He said good news

00:02:54 --> 00:02:56

to the person who believes in me and

00:02:56 --> 00:02:59

saw me. And here, Tuba means Jannah,

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

meaning I promised Jannah

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

for the one who physically saw me and

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

believed in me.

00:03:07 --> 00:03:10

Then he repeated it 3 times, Tawba,

00:03:10 --> 00:03:11

Tawba.

00:03:12 --> 00:03:13

I promised Jannah.

00:03:14 --> 00:03:17

I promise Jannah. I promise Jannah.

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

For the one who believed in me

00:03:26 --> 00:03:28

and didn't see me.

00:03:30 --> 00:03:32

Then he repeated it

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

6 times.

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

For the one who

00:03:48 --> 00:03:50

and then he repeated it 12 times.

00:03:54 --> 00:03:55

I promise Jenna

00:03:56 --> 00:03:58

Jenna. Jenna. Jenna.

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

Jenna. Jenna. Jenna.

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

Jenna. Jenna. Jenna. Jenna.

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

Jenna.

00:04:11 --> 00:04:13

The one who believed in me and never

00:04:13 --> 00:04:14

saw me.

00:04:17 --> 00:04:19

How do we show our love

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

for

00:04:23 --> 00:04:25

is to study his Hadith.

00:04:27 --> 00:04:29

And not to base our relationship

00:04:29 --> 00:04:30

upon

00:04:30 --> 00:04:32

with the prophet based on assumptions.

00:04:33 --> 00:04:36

Because when we don't have knowledge, we have

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

assumptions.

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

So sometimes we may hear things from people,

00:04:40 --> 00:04:41

sometimes we may

00:04:42 --> 00:04:44

see things from others, Islamophobes,

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

even some

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

Muslims who may be misguided.

00:04:49 --> 00:04:51

And that causes us to conclude

00:04:52 --> 00:04:54

a negative assumption about the prophet

00:04:56 --> 00:04:57

So how do we then

00:04:58 --> 00:04:59

engage that is we learn.

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

One of the most important things that we

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

can study are

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

his hadith.

00:05:07 --> 00:05:09

That allows us to be spiritually with the

00:05:09 --> 00:05:10

prophet

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

When we are studying a hadith,

00:05:15 --> 00:05:17

we should imagine as though we are sitting

00:05:18 --> 00:05:19

with Sayida Aisha,

00:05:20 --> 00:05:21

with Sayida Salamah,

00:05:23 --> 00:05:24

with Sayida Ali,

00:05:25 --> 00:05:26

Sayida Fatima.

00:05:27 --> 00:05:29

We should imagine that when we hear the

00:05:29 --> 00:05:30

hadith of the prophet,

00:05:30 --> 00:05:31

we are united

00:05:32 --> 00:05:33

as a community

00:05:33 --> 00:05:35

in the halaqa of the sahaba.

00:05:40 --> 00:05:41

And this is a great sign of our

00:05:41 --> 00:05:43

love for the messenger of Allah.

00:05:45 --> 00:05:47

Once a man, he he came

00:05:47 --> 00:05:48

to the prophet

00:05:50 --> 00:05:51

and he said,

00:05:52 --> 00:05:54

I love you so much.

00:05:55 --> 00:05:57

And when I'm alone

00:05:57 --> 00:05:58

in my house,

00:05:59 --> 00:06:01

I start to think about how

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

in the hereafter I will no longer be

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

with you.

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

Because your level in Jannah is going to

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

be so much higher than mine if I

00:06:09 --> 00:06:11

make it into Jannah.

00:06:12 --> 00:06:13

And I begin to miss you

00:06:15 --> 00:06:17

such that I begin to weep.

00:06:17 --> 00:06:20

Like SubhanAllah he would miss the Prophet even

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

though he was still with the Prophet. Like

00:06:22 --> 00:06:23

that's serious business, man.

00:06:25 --> 00:06:27

And he said You Rasool Allah is there

00:06:27 --> 00:06:28

any hope

00:06:29 --> 00:06:30

that I will

00:06:30 --> 00:06:31

be with you

00:06:32 --> 00:06:33

in the hereafter.

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

So you do not Muhammad

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

he said

00:06:42 --> 00:06:44

A person will be with who they love.

00:06:46 --> 00:06:48

Actually wrote a poem about this when I

00:06:48 --> 00:06:49

was in Egypt.

00:06:58 --> 00:06:59

That my

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

Jannah

00:07:01 --> 00:07:02

without you

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

is *.

00:07:08 --> 00:07:10

And I hope that I I will be

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

with

00:07:11 --> 00:07:12

the righteous.

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

When we gather every Friday evening around this

00:07:16 --> 00:07:17

time 11:30

00:07:18 --> 00:07:19

to study

00:07:20 --> 00:07:21

hadith

00:07:23 --> 00:07:24

we ask Allah to make this

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

a means of our love for the prophet

00:07:30 --> 00:07:31

and that we can be united with the

00:07:31 --> 00:07:32

prophet

00:07:39 --> 00:07:41

Thanks for all the hearts by the way

00:07:41 --> 00:07:43

on, Instagram. That's so kind. And I love

00:07:43 --> 00:07:45

I love you also for the sake of

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

Allah. This hadith that we were studying.

00:07:52 --> 00:07:53

He says that the prophet

00:07:54 --> 00:07:57

made this really important dua after revelation came

00:07:57 --> 00:07:58

to him.

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

Oh Allah increase us

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

and do not decrease us.

00:08:11 --> 00:08:12

And honor us

00:08:14 --> 00:08:15

And don't shame us.

00:08:17 --> 00:08:19

And bestow upon us. Grant us.

00:08:21 --> 00:08:23

And don't keep us away from something.

00:08:26 --> 00:08:27

And prefer us

00:08:29 --> 00:08:31

and don't prefer others to us.

00:08:34 --> 00:08:35

Subhan Allah.

00:08:37 --> 00:08:40

And and make us content with you.

00:08:42 --> 00:08:44

And be content with us.

00:08:45 --> 00:08:46

Subhanahu

00:08:46 --> 00:08:47

wa ta'ala.

00:08:48 --> 00:08:49

We we stopped

00:08:50 --> 00:08:53

at this point in the explanation of the

00:08:53 --> 00:08:54

Hadith and then

00:08:54 --> 00:08:57

there's something that should be said very important

00:08:57 --> 00:08:58

about this Dua.

00:08:59 --> 00:09:01

That if you were to look at this

00:09:01 --> 00:09:04

Dua it really has the foundations of Tarbia.

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

The foundations of growth as a Muslim. Personal

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

growth. The first is that the prophet

00:09:12 --> 00:09:13

he sought knowledge.

00:09:15 --> 00:09:18

Allah all increases in knowledge. So, first step

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

in the life of any Muslim

00:09:20 --> 00:09:21

is to learn.

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

The second after asking Allah

00:09:26 --> 00:09:28

to grant him because

00:09:30 --> 00:09:32

right? Knowledge before action.

00:09:36 --> 00:09:38

They say right? Is the father or the

00:09:38 --> 00:09:39

mother

00:09:39 --> 00:09:40

then

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

is the is the offspring.

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

Right?

00:09:48 --> 00:09:50

Right? Knowledge is the tree and the fruit

00:09:50 --> 00:09:51

is action.

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

Whoever acts without knowledge does more harm than

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

good, and we see this sometimes in Dawah.

00:10:05 --> 00:10:06

People come and say, I heard someone tell

00:10:06 --> 00:10:09

me this or I saw someone say this,

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

and it it really messes a person up.

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

And then when you start to have a

00:10:12 --> 00:10:14

conversation with them and you open for them

00:10:14 --> 00:10:17

the expanse of the deen, they say, man,

00:10:17 --> 00:10:19

I wish that person that told me this

00:10:19 --> 00:10:20

knew this.

00:10:20 --> 00:10:22

Like like passion

00:10:22 --> 00:10:24

is not passion doesn't equate to

00:10:25 --> 00:10:26

having knowledge.

00:10:26 --> 00:10:27

Right? Learning.

00:10:27 --> 00:10:29

So the first thing the prophet asked Allah

00:10:29 --> 00:10:31

to grant him his knowledge.

00:10:33 --> 00:10:34

Then after that,

00:10:36 --> 00:10:39

then he asked for consistency upon the knowledge,

00:10:40 --> 00:10:43

consistent practice. So once I learned it should

00:10:43 --> 00:10:44

then be translated into

00:10:45 --> 00:10:46

action.

00:10:47 --> 00:10:47

We say

00:10:52 --> 00:10:52

That

00:10:52 --> 00:10:54

knowledge translates to action.

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

SubhanAllah.

00:10:58 --> 00:11:00

And then after that, after asking for consistency

00:11:01 --> 00:11:03

and and being, you know, on the right

00:11:03 --> 00:11:04

path, he asked Allah.

00:11:05 --> 00:11:07

The third is to protect him

00:11:07 --> 00:11:09

from losing the favor of Allah

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

And then finally he asked for the greatest

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

gift.

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

Does anyone know

00:11:15 --> 00:11:16

what the prophet

00:11:18 --> 00:11:22

considered the greatest gift. So after knowledge,

00:11:22 --> 00:11:23

practice, consistency,

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

and Jannah,

00:11:25 --> 00:11:26

he ends this dua

00:11:27 --> 00:11:29

by asking Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

00:11:29 --> 00:11:31

to give him the greatest gift.

00:11:33 --> 00:11:34

Does anyone here know

00:11:35 --> 00:11:36

what that greatest gift is?

00:11:41 --> 00:11:44

It's the pleasure of Allah.

00:11:45 --> 00:11:46

The of Allah.

00:11:49 --> 00:11:50

In an authentic hadith,

00:11:51 --> 00:11:52

the prophet

00:11:53 --> 00:11:54

says that Allah

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

will say to the people of Jannah. Can

00:11:58 --> 00:11:59

we imagine

00:11:59 --> 00:12:01

like if we're in Jannah?

00:12:09 --> 00:12:11

Like, can you imagine

00:12:11 --> 00:12:13

like in that in that moment

00:12:15 --> 00:12:17

where you're in Jannah

00:12:19 --> 00:12:20

and Allah

00:12:20 --> 00:12:21

will say,

00:12:24 --> 00:12:26

Oh people of Jannah.

00:12:27 --> 00:12:28

The people of Jannah, the prophet said they

00:12:28 --> 00:12:29

will say

00:12:31 --> 00:12:33

we we are at your service, our

00:12:37 --> 00:12:38

want.

00:12:39 --> 00:12:41

Allah will ask them, are you content?

00:12:42 --> 00:12:43

Are you happy?

00:12:50 --> 00:12:52

Like, how how would it be possible

00:12:52 --> 00:12:54

that we're not content and happy?

00:12:55 --> 00:12:57

You've given us what no one else in

00:12:57 --> 00:12:59

creation has been given.

00:13:05 --> 00:13:06

Allah will say to them,

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

I'm gonna give you something better than

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

that. They will say,

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

like, what's better than this?

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

What's what's better than this?

00:13:36 --> 00:13:36

I have

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

made

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

my pleasure for you.

00:13:42 --> 00:13:43

That's it.

00:13:45 --> 00:13:48

I'm giving you my consistent happiness with all

00:13:48 --> 00:13:49

that you have.

00:13:49 --> 00:13:53

And I will never ever exercise anger against

00:13:53 --> 00:13:54

you ever again.

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

Subhan Allah. This hadith

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

or Muslim.

00:14:02 --> 00:14:04

Inshallah, if it's lagging on Instagram, I'm sorry.

00:14:04 --> 00:14:06

I'm doing my best. I'm in the basement

00:14:06 --> 00:14:09

of someone's house because I've had to move

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

now three times because of COVID 19.

00:14:11 --> 00:14:13

So I ask you, you know, it's beyond

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

my control

00:14:15 --> 00:14:16

and just be patient.

00:14:17 --> 00:14:19

We were recording it and we can also

00:14:19 --> 00:14:20

repost it. But I I really,

00:14:21 --> 00:14:23

am trying to do my my best.

00:14:25 --> 00:14:26

Then the prophet

00:14:28 --> 00:14:29

he said

00:14:30 --> 00:14:32

then we go back to the hadith of

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

Sayna who

00:14:34 --> 00:14:35

said

00:14:40 --> 00:14:42

The prophet said now there has been 10

00:14:42 --> 00:14:43

verses sent to me.

00:14:45 --> 00:14:45

Whoever

00:14:46 --> 00:14:47

whoever

00:14:47 --> 00:14:50

whoever scales, whoever and it's interesting. The word

00:14:50 --> 00:14:51

means to stand.

00:14:52 --> 00:14:54

So whoever stands these verses up in their

00:14:54 --> 00:14:55

life.

00:14:56 --> 00:14:56

He

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

says

00:14:58 --> 00:14:59

they will enter paradise.

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

Subhanallah, just just these verses.

00:15:05 --> 00:15:07

And of course, you know that these are

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

the first verses of

00:15:10 --> 00:15:12

23rd chapter of the Quran.

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

Quran.

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

And then the prophet

00:15:18 --> 00:15:19

he read after

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

indeed

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

successful,

00:15:24 --> 00:15:27

the believers were successful in the past tense.

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

Those who have whose show,

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

reverence

00:15:39 --> 00:15:40

in their salah.

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

Those who turn away from evil talk.

00:15:51 --> 00:15:52

And they

00:15:52 --> 00:15:53

perform the zakah.

00:15:59 --> 00:16:01

Those who protect their private parts.

00:16:06 --> 00:16:08

Save for those they are allowed to, their

00:16:08 --> 00:16:09

spouses and so on.

00:16:12 --> 00:16:13

Then there is no blame.

00:16:21 --> 00:16:23

Whoever transgresses that and goes beyond that, then

00:16:23 --> 00:16:24

they are

00:16:24 --> 00:16:25

sinners and evildoers.

00:16:31 --> 00:16:34

Those who look after their their their agreements

00:16:34 --> 00:16:34

in business

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

transactions.

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

And those who are consistent in guarding their

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

prayers.

00:16:47 --> 00:16:49

They are those who are going to inherit.

00:16:51 --> 00:16:53

There is a hadith of the prophet

00:16:56 --> 00:16:57

When Allah

00:16:57 --> 00:16:58

created Jannah,

00:16:59 --> 00:17:01

he said to Jannah talk and

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

Jannah said indeed successful

00:17:05 --> 00:17:06

are the believers.

00:17:09 --> 00:17:11

Let's just spend a few moments

00:17:11 --> 00:17:12

on

00:17:12 --> 00:17:13

some of the different

00:17:14 --> 00:17:16

aspects of these verses and then Insha'Allah we'll

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

move on to the next hadith.

00:17:19 --> 00:17:21

First of all, we talked about the word

00:17:21 --> 00:17:23

Aflaha is in the past tense because Allah

00:17:23 --> 00:17:25

Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala decreed that you and I

00:17:25 --> 00:17:27

would be believers before creation.

00:17:34 --> 00:17:35

And the word

00:17:35 --> 00:17:37

is from the same word as which means

00:17:37 --> 00:17:39

to form. The in masar is the farm.

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

In Arabic is the farmer.

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

Because the believer is the one who understands

00:17:44 --> 00:17:46

that this earth is simply to be cultivated

00:17:46 --> 00:17:49

to experience the harvest in the hereafter.

00:17:53 --> 00:17:55

Number 2, Allah says

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

the word in Arabic means to be like

00:18:05 --> 00:18:07

The water is in the bottle. This is

00:18:07 --> 00:18:08

fee. I say fee.

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

When Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala talks about salah,

00:18:11 --> 00:18:12

he says,

00:18:13 --> 00:18:14

they are submerged

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

in salah.

00:18:20 --> 00:18:22

Absolutely, because Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, it's impossible

00:18:30 --> 00:18:31

decreed is the

00:18:31 --> 00:18:33

hope the the highest

00:18:33 --> 00:18:35

form of justice, Alhamdulillah.

00:18:36 --> 00:18:38

And if we are not able to understand

00:18:38 --> 00:18:39

that we say, Subhanallah,

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

Alhamdulillah.

00:18:41 --> 00:18:43

As one of my teachers said, if we

00:18:43 --> 00:18:46

worried more about our our own iman instead

00:18:46 --> 00:18:48

of the the people who don't have iman,

00:18:48 --> 00:18:49

the world will be a very different place.

00:18:49 --> 00:18:50

But it's impossible.

00:18:51 --> 00:18:54

Impossible for us to ever think that Allah

00:18:54 --> 00:18:55

is unjust.

00:18:59 --> 00:19:01

Allah says in the Quran Allah never wrongs

00:19:01 --> 00:19:02

anybody

00:19:03 --> 00:19:05

but this is from his wisdom and his

00:19:05 --> 00:19:08

transcendent knowledge and how he blessed you and

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

how he had to gave this nama to

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

people.

00:19:11 --> 00:19:13

Subhan Allah. And even though that's decreed,

00:19:14 --> 00:19:16

it doesn't mean that the believer will be

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

spared from punishment

00:19:17 --> 00:19:20

nor does it believe mean that every disbeliever

00:19:20 --> 00:19:21

will go to *. Because we know the

00:19:21 --> 00:19:24

authentic hadith of the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wa

00:19:24 --> 00:19:27

Salamah, related by Imam Muslim, that those disbelievers

00:19:27 --> 00:19:30

who never heard about Islam, Allah will judge

00:19:30 --> 00:19:31

them with his mercy and justice.

00:19:33 --> 00:19:34

Allah says

00:19:36 --> 00:19:38

I have made oppression haram on myself.

00:19:39 --> 00:19:41

So we should anytime we have this kind

00:19:41 --> 00:19:43

of idea like Allah is unjust.

00:19:44 --> 00:19:45

I'm unjust.

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

Like in Allah Subhanahu wa

00:19:49 --> 00:19:51

ta'ala. Even though sometimes it's hard, we may

00:19:51 --> 00:19:52

struggle with it but

00:19:54 --> 00:19:56

we trust Allah more than we trust ourselves.

00:19:57 --> 00:19:58

But this is a good question by the

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

way.

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

It's a great question.

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

So

00:20:04 --> 00:20:06

submerged myself in salah

00:20:07 --> 00:20:08

like the water.

00:20:11 --> 00:20:14

Right? I I when I enter into salah,

00:20:14 --> 00:20:16

I have submerged myself

00:20:17 --> 00:20:18

into salah.

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

Those who turn away from false speech.

00:20:29 --> 00:20:30

And they observe

00:20:31 --> 00:20:32

the

00:20:33 --> 00:20:35

notice Allah talks about

00:20:36 --> 00:20:38

bad speech and the private parts because the

00:20:38 --> 00:20:41

prophet said whoever can guarantee me 2 things,

00:20:41 --> 00:20:42

I guarantee them Jannah.

00:20:43 --> 00:20:44

What comes out of their mouth

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

and what comes from their private, like how

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

they act with their private parts.

00:20:53 --> 00:20:55

And also if you notice these verses, you

00:20:55 --> 00:20:58

see that it touches on personal acts of

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

piety

00:20:59 --> 00:21:00

as well as community

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

responsibility,

00:21:02 --> 00:21:03

family relationships,

00:21:05 --> 00:21:07

the idea of economic stratification,

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

and all of that is sandwiched between

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

As if to say what will support you

00:21:16 --> 00:21:18

in doing all of that

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

is salah.

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

Right? Having this reverence for Allah in salah

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

and focus.

00:21:28 --> 00:21:30

And then number 2 is what?

00:21:32 --> 00:21:33

Being consistent.

00:21:34 --> 00:21:35

That takes us to

00:21:35 --> 00:21:36

2 important

00:21:37 --> 00:21:37

questions.

00:21:37 --> 00:21:39

2 important questions.

00:21:40 --> 00:21:42

The first question is, what do we mean

00:21:42 --> 00:21:45

by reverence in salah? Does it mean the

00:21:45 --> 00:21:48

entire salah like you're in the zone and

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

you don't think about anything?

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

I wish I could be like this.

00:21:53 --> 00:21:55

Or does it mean that a person battles

00:21:55 --> 00:21:58

in their salah to maintain focus and sometimes

00:21:58 --> 00:22:01

they slip? That's the majority of the people.

00:22:01 --> 00:22:02

And we know that that's not sinful.

00:22:03 --> 00:22:04

If the person battles

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

to maintain

00:22:07 --> 00:22:09

composure and focus in salah. How do we

00:22:09 --> 00:22:11

know this is not sinful? Because the prophet

00:22:11 --> 00:22:14

sallallahu alaihi wa sallam in authentic hadith, He

00:22:14 --> 00:22:16

was praying with the Sahaba and as soon

00:22:16 --> 00:22:17

as he said

00:22:17 --> 00:22:18

he

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

stood up and he ran to his house

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

next to the masjid,

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

and he came back and he said during

00:22:26 --> 00:22:29

salah I remembered I had some sadaqa that

00:22:29 --> 00:22:31

I had to give to

00:22:32 --> 00:22:33

the man. So I went and got it

00:22:33 --> 00:22:35

and gave it to that means during the

00:22:35 --> 00:22:38

salai, he's the prophet, he's the best worshiper.

00:22:38 --> 00:22:40

His mind sometimes was on something else. So

00:22:41 --> 00:22:42

So we need to be very careful

00:22:43 --> 00:22:45

sometimes of telling people that Khushur and Salah

00:22:46 --> 00:22:49

means like you're completely oblivious to the entire

00:22:49 --> 00:22:51

world around you and the only thing you

00:22:51 --> 00:22:52

have on your mind is salah. This is

00:22:52 --> 00:22:53

impossible almost.

00:22:54 --> 00:22:55

If somebody does it

00:22:58 --> 00:22:58

But the prophet

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

in a sound hadith his mind momentarily

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

thought about that he left in his home.

00:23:05 --> 00:23:07

And he even said it, I

00:23:08 --> 00:23:11

remembered in salah a salaqa that I left

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

in my house some gold.

00:23:14 --> 00:23:16

And that's why we sometimes we need to

00:23:16 --> 00:23:17

be careful of exaggerated

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

stories

00:23:19 --> 00:23:20

of pious people

00:23:20 --> 00:23:22

that raise the bar so high

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

that people get frustrated and they feel like

00:23:25 --> 00:23:27

you know what my salah is not good.

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

Allah will never accept my salah. No.

00:23:33 --> 00:23:34

Masha Allah, no. You do your best.

00:23:36 --> 00:23:38

And then the end of this

00:23:40 --> 00:23:42

series of verses, Allah

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

says,

00:23:47 --> 00:23:49

They look after their salah.

00:23:50 --> 00:23:52

That brings up 2 questions that I got

00:23:52 --> 00:23:53

a lot from people.

00:23:54 --> 00:23:56

Some people ask me, is it okay if

00:23:56 --> 00:23:59

they fear for themselves to pray in their

00:23:59 --> 00:23:59

car

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

or to pray, you know sitting?

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

Like say you're at a mall somewhere,

00:24:05 --> 00:24:08

say you're like, some of our brothers and

00:24:08 --> 00:24:09

sisters in certain parts of the world where

00:24:09 --> 00:24:12

Islam is being state oppressed. We pray for

00:24:12 --> 00:24:15

our French brothers and sisters, our brothers and

00:24:15 --> 00:24:16

sisters in Austria

00:24:16 --> 00:24:19

who are going through tremendous political Islamophobia

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

And

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

in that situation,

00:24:25 --> 00:24:28

most said it's allowed to pray in your

00:24:28 --> 00:24:29

car.

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

And that in the ancient days, they said

00:24:31 --> 00:24:33

you can pray out of Debra. Right? You

00:24:33 --> 00:24:34

can play it on an animal. The fault.

00:24:36 --> 00:24:36

Because

00:24:37 --> 00:24:40

if if the fear is somewhat real. Okay.

00:24:40 --> 00:24:43

Not if it's like an unfounded compulsive fear.

00:24:43 --> 00:24:46

But let's say maybe a sister is out

00:24:46 --> 00:24:47

with her children

00:24:47 --> 00:24:48

and she knows she prays,

00:24:49 --> 00:24:50

her children may run

00:24:51 --> 00:24:53

freely and something could happen to them. So

00:24:53 --> 00:24:56

she needs to pray in the car. According

00:24:58 --> 00:24:59

to

00:25:01 --> 00:25:02

of course, as long as it's not done

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

like every day.

00:25:06 --> 00:25:08

Because this is from what's called

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

hardships, and we have a famous axiom in

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

Islamic law.

00:25:16 --> 00:25:17

That real difficulties

00:25:18 --> 00:25:19

bring about ease.

00:25:20 --> 00:25:22

And one of the is fear

00:25:23 --> 00:25:24

is fear.

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

The second question that people ask is about

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

joining the prayers from time to time. For

00:25:29 --> 00:25:31

example, they have exams at school.

00:25:32 --> 00:25:34

Someone is going and now with COVID 19,

00:25:34 --> 00:25:36

I received this question from a number of

00:25:36 --> 00:25:37

brothers and sisters who

00:25:37 --> 00:25:38

are,

00:25:39 --> 00:25:40

you know, frontline

00:25:41 --> 00:25:43

health care people. May Allah bless them. We

00:25:43 --> 00:25:44

should reward

00:25:45 --> 00:25:47

all of the Muslims and non Muslims who

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

have been

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

performing

00:25:49 --> 00:25:51

so heroically in the face of this

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

tremendous challenge?

00:25:53 --> 00:25:55

Is it allowed for people in those situations

00:25:56 --> 00:25:58

to join the prayers without shortening them according

00:25:58 --> 00:26:00

to the and according to the Hanabila?

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

Yes.

00:26:03 --> 00:26:04

Based on the hadith

00:26:10 --> 00:26:11

who said that the prophet

00:26:11 --> 00:26:12

joined prayers

00:26:14 --> 00:26:17

suffer. Now the narration said

00:26:17 --> 00:26:20

that the prophet joined prayers, there was no

00:26:20 --> 00:26:22

rain, there was no weather, there was no

00:26:22 --> 00:26:23

travel, there was no illness.

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

So a great great percentage

00:26:28 --> 00:26:30

of what that means is that there was

00:26:30 --> 00:26:31

some

00:26:32 --> 00:26:34

circumstance that had kept them from being able

00:26:34 --> 00:26:37

to pray. Like for example, in Sahih Bukhari,

00:26:37 --> 00:26:38

the prophet

00:26:39 --> 00:26:42

when he he met Sayidina Umar after Marib.

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

And Sayidina Omar said, may Allah curse the

00:26:45 --> 00:26:47

people of Mecca. They stop me from playing

00:26:47 --> 00:26:48

Asar because I was fighting.

00:26:49 --> 00:26:50

And the prophet said,

00:26:50 --> 00:26:51

also me.

00:26:52 --> 00:26:55

But in general, joining the prayers here means

00:26:56 --> 00:26:57

and

00:26:58 --> 00:27:00

for a legitimate Hajj, like you have a

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

long exam, you can't leave, like, you have

00:27:02 --> 00:27:05

to perform surgery, maybe you're going into surgery.

00:27:06 --> 00:27:07

Those kind of situations,

00:27:07 --> 00:27:09

maybe someone has told that they have to

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

sleep

00:27:10 --> 00:27:12

a certain amount of part of the day

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

to recover.

00:27:13 --> 00:27:15

All this falls under what's called

00:27:19 --> 00:27:21

and this doesn't break the idea of

00:27:22 --> 00:27:23

upon salah.

00:27:25 --> 00:27:26

That takes us now

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

to the next hadith.

00:27:29 --> 00:27:31

And this hadith is related by and before

00:27:32 --> 00:27:34

the hadith that we've been spending time on

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

over the last few weeks is related by

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

Timothy.

00:27:37 --> 00:27:38

Imam Timothy,

00:27:38 --> 00:27:39

under his of

00:27:43 --> 00:27:45

and others also. The next hadith

00:27:48 --> 00:27:51

from Sayedina ibn Abbas, the nephew of the

00:27:51 --> 00:27:52

prophet

00:27:54 --> 00:27:54

who says

00:28:02 --> 00:28:05

The last verse said to the prophet

00:28:07 --> 00:28:09

was the verse about interest.

00:28:12 --> 00:28:14

I wanna teach you something very important if

00:28:14 --> 00:28:16

you read hadith. When you find

00:28:20 --> 00:28:23

that means that that writer is actually bringing

00:28:23 --> 00:28:25

out the chain

00:28:26 --> 00:28:27

and the text

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

and ruling on the chain and the text.

00:28:31 --> 00:28:33

That means that that person is a very

00:28:33 --> 00:28:34

serious scholar.

00:28:35 --> 00:28:37

That that person has achieved

00:28:38 --> 00:28:38

such scholarship

00:28:39 --> 00:28:41

that she or he are able now to

00:28:41 --> 00:28:43

say this hadith is,

00:28:43 --> 00:28:46

this hadith is Sahih, this hadith is hasan

00:28:46 --> 00:28:48

and so on. And the word for that

00:28:48 --> 00:28:49

is ahorajah

00:28:50 --> 00:28:51

from the form

00:28:52 --> 00:28:54

The other word that you're going to see

00:28:54 --> 00:28:55

is

00:28:57 --> 00:28:57

and

00:28:58 --> 00:29:00

does not mean that that person has the

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

ability to extract

00:29:03 --> 00:29:05

a hadith with a chain that he belongs

00:29:05 --> 00:29:08

to or she belongs to, and then provide

00:29:08 --> 00:29:09

a ruling.

00:29:10 --> 00:29:10

What

00:29:11 --> 00:29:12

means is that that person

00:29:13 --> 00:29:15

is able to look at the work of

00:29:15 --> 00:29:17

others and come to a conclusion.

00:29:17 --> 00:29:19

So he may look at,

00:29:19 --> 00:29:21

he may look at Muslim and say, oh,

00:29:21 --> 00:29:23

this is sound or this

00:29:24 --> 00:29:26

he may look at and say, this hadith

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

is this hadith is Sahid. This hadith is

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

Hassan.

00:29:33 --> 00:29:34

But when you read,

00:29:35 --> 00:29:37

it means that person is an imam in

00:29:37 --> 00:29:38

this science,

00:29:38 --> 00:29:40

and that he or she has the ability,

00:29:41 --> 00:29:43

and this is gone now. Imam says after

00:29:43 --> 00:29:45

the 5th century, nobody can do that anymore.

00:29:45 --> 00:29:47

That that person because the chains

00:29:48 --> 00:29:51

and the the the compendium of hadith was

00:29:51 --> 00:29:51

collected.

00:29:52 --> 00:29:54

But that's why when you read

00:29:54 --> 00:29:55

because

00:29:56 --> 00:29:56

is an imam

00:29:57 --> 00:29:58

Muslim. Muslim is an

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

imam.

00:30:01 --> 00:30:03

And so on now, you know,

00:30:03 --> 00:30:04

hadith that person is now

00:30:05 --> 00:30:08

extracting the text, the the chain. There's no

00:30:08 --> 00:30:10

there's no weakness in it.

00:30:10 --> 00:30:12

There's no breaks in the chain. There's no

00:30:12 --> 00:30:13

weak people on chain.

00:30:15 --> 00:30:16

But someone like, for example,

00:30:17 --> 00:30:17

who

00:30:18 --> 00:30:20

looks at previous work and says this no.

00:30:20 --> 00:30:21

No. I think this was weak. No. No.

00:30:21 --> 00:30:24

I think that's called That's for some of

00:30:24 --> 00:30:28

my students who are watching, especially those studying

00:30:28 --> 00:30:31

with me. This term is very important.

00:30:36 --> 00:30:37

He of course is the nephew of the

00:30:37 --> 00:30:38

prophet

00:30:39 --> 00:30:40

Wahu wa Abdallah

00:30:40 --> 00:30:42

ibn Abbas ibn Abdul Motalib.

00:30:50 --> 00:30:51

Who migrated to

00:30:52 --> 00:30:52

Medina

00:30:53 --> 00:30:55

with his father, who migrated to Medina.

00:30:56 --> 00:30:59

When the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam died,

00:31:02 --> 00:31:03

was 10 years old.

00:31:07 --> 00:31:09

We know that the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

00:31:09 --> 00:31:10

he made dua for him, he used to

00:31:10 --> 00:31:12

spend a lot of time with him, he

00:31:12 --> 00:31:14

would spend the night in his auntie's house

00:31:14 --> 00:31:16

in Imona who married the Prophet

00:31:20 --> 00:31:22

and the prophet will make dua for him.

00:31:22 --> 00:31:24

It's very important that we make dua for

00:31:24 --> 00:31:26

the younger people in the community.

00:31:26 --> 00:31:29

And we pray for the next generations.

00:31:30 --> 00:31:32

And the prophet prayed that he would be

00:31:32 --> 00:31:34

a scholar, that he would be an explainer

00:31:34 --> 00:31:35

of the Quran.

00:31:35 --> 00:31:37

And we know he's known as

00:31:38 --> 00:31:39

Right? The scholar of the

00:31:40 --> 00:31:40

Quran.

00:31:45 --> 00:31:47

In the tafsir of Imam al Bukhari

00:31:50 --> 00:31:51

under the chapter of Sultan Nasr.

00:31:53 --> 00:31:54

We see even Abbas,

00:31:55 --> 00:31:56

say, you know, Omar Al Khattab.

00:31:57 --> 00:32:00

He asked even Abbas to join the gathering

00:32:02 --> 00:32:03

of a Sheikh Badr.

00:32:10 --> 00:32:12

He compared him to the

00:32:13 --> 00:32:14

he he brought him

00:32:14 --> 00:32:16

in with the great scholars

00:32:16 --> 00:32:17

of that's a great question

00:32:18 --> 00:32:20

remind me at the end and I'll answer

00:32:20 --> 00:32:21

that question. That's a great question.

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

You and

00:32:23 --> 00:32:25

others are asking great questions tonight.

00:32:28 --> 00:32:30

So thank you for asking.

00:32:31 --> 00:32:34

Into this gathering of older

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

Sahaba,

00:32:35 --> 00:32:37

Ashiq Badr, who were in the battle of

00:32:37 --> 00:32:38

Badr.

00:32:48 --> 00:32:49

And one of them he said, why did

00:32:49 --> 00:32:52

you bring even Abbas here, this boy? We

00:32:52 --> 00:32:53

have boys his age.

00:32:58 --> 00:32:59

And this is allyship.

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

Look how Sayna uses

00:33:02 --> 00:33:04

the the privilege of his leadership

00:33:04 --> 00:33:07

to make room and space for younger generations

00:33:07 --> 00:33:08

of Muslims.

00:33:08 --> 00:33:09

This this is an example

00:33:10 --> 00:33:12

of how

00:33:12 --> 00:33:13

somebody

00:33:13 --> 00:33:15

is using his power

00:33:15 --> 00:33:17

to open doors for others,

00:33:17 --> 00:33:18

and here we can appreciate

00:33:19 --> 00:33:20

Amr Al

00:33:21 --> 00:33:22

Haktab. He says

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

So okay.

00:33:31 --> 00:33:32

So he said one day

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

he called me and he called them together

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

again.

00:33:36 --> 00:33:37

And he

00:33:40 --> 00:33:41

said

00:33:46 --> 00:33:48

He said, what do you guys have to

00:33:48 --> 00:33:49

say about the verse when the help of

00:33:49 --> 00:33:50

Allah comes in his victory?

00:33:59 --> 00:34:01

We it means Allah ordered us to praise

00:34:01 --> 00:34:03

him and seek his forgiveness when we're given

00:34:03 --> 00:34:04

the victory and help.

00:34:06 --> 00:34:07

Say no, he got quiet.

00:34:09 --> 00:34:12

And others, sorry, others were quiet. Then

00:34:12 --> 00:34:13

he

00:34:13 --> 00:34:14

said to me,

00:34:15 --> 00:34:16

And here we learn also a lesson even

00:34:16 --> 00:34:18

though Ibad Abbas is young and he has

00:34:18 --> 00:34:21

passion and he's angry, maybe he wants to

00:34:21 --> 00:34:23

talk but he stays quiet. Here we see

00:34:23 --> 00:34:25

something really beautiful how the sahaba

00:34:25 --> 00:34:27

managed generational issues.

00:34:28 --> 00:34:28

The Saydun

00:34:29 --> 00:34:31

Umar uses his power in his place to

00:34:31 --> 00:34:33

open doors for people who are qualified

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

even when they're younger

00:34:36 --> 00:34:38

and then ibn Abbas is patient with the

00:34:38 --> 00:34:38

elders

00:34:39 --> 00:34:41

and doesn't lose his temper

00:34:41 --> 00:34:42

he said fasakatah

00:34:42 --> 00:34:43

guys stay quiet

00:34:45 --> 00:34:46

and

00:34:46 --> 00:34:48

then Sayyidina Umar of Nakhatah

00:34:50 --> 00:34:50

he said

00:34:53 --> 00:34:54

what do you have to say about it?

00:34:56 --> 00:34:57

That's why if we see masjid boards

00:34:58 --> 00:35:00

you should be bringing in the young people

00:35:01 --> 00:35:02

to transition into leadership.

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

MSAs

00:35:05 --> 00:35:07

should bring in younger freshmen and so on

00:35:07 --> 00:35:10

to transition into leadership. Imams,

00:35:10 --> 00:35:12

when I talk to imams, I told them

00:35:12 --> 00:35:14

how many students you have under 25 years

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

old.

00:35:15 --> 00:35:17

How many students are you spending time with?

00:35:18 --> 00:35:20

And then also you you when you teach

00:35:20 --> 00:35:22

or when you give lessons, you let them

00:35:22 --> 00:35:23

participate

00:35:23 --> 00:35:25

and you open doors for them.

00:35:26 --> 00:35:29

Here here we see something beautiful.

00:35:30 --> 00:35:32

Ibn Abbas is patient with the elders.

00:35:32 --> 00:35:34

Some of the elders got an attitude with

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

him

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

and say, you know, uses his privilege to

00:35:37 --> 00:35:39

open the door for for those who who

00:35:39 --> 00:35:40

are worthy of

00:35:41 --> 00:35:41

it.

00:35:44 --> 00:35:46

Say it now, Omar says, what what do

00:35:46 --> 00:35:47

you think about it?

00:36:02 --> 00:36:04

This is the death of the prophet

00:36:08 --> 00:36:10

It's informing him that he's going to die.

00:36:19 --> 00:36:20

Omar, he said,

00:36:20 --> 00:36:23

that's what I know. Only thing I know

00:36:23 --> 00:36:25

is what this young boy said. Look how

00:36:25 --> 00:36:26

Umrah he shows and he illustrates

00:36:27 --> 00:36:28

for those older people,

00:36:29 --> 00:36:31

young people have something they can also

00:36:32 --> 00:36:33

bring to the table.

00:36:38 --> 00:36:40

Before we break tonight, I want to have

00:36:40 --> 00:36:41

a discussion with you.

00:36:42 --> 00:36:43

And that is, what do you think the

00:36:43 --> 00:36:46

major challenges are into getting into the community?

00:36:47 --> 00:36:49

Right? Not not just,

00:36:50 --> 00:36:51

right, power,

00:36:52 --> 00:36:54

but even being able to participate. I'm gonna

00:36:54 --> 00:36:56

seek what your suggestions are.

00:36:57 --> 00:36:57

And

00:36:58 --> 00:37:00

take your feedback every Friday

00:37:01 --> 00:37:01

11:30

00:37:01 --> 00:37:02

PM EST.

00:37:03 --> 00:37:03

We have this

00:37:04 --> 00:37:06

going through a hadith of the prophet. From

00:37:06 --> 00:37:08

this book written by one of our teachers,

00:37:08 --> 00:37:10

teachers, teacher, Sheikh, doctor Muhammad

00:37:10 --> 00:37:11

Abdullah

00:37:11 --> 00:37:12

from Azhar

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

called

00:37:18 --> 00:37:21

And can you imagine everybody? What did we

00:37:21 --> 00:37:22

just study

00:37:22 --> 00:37:24

in just the of the hadith?

00:37:25 --> 00:37:27

What did we learn now just from the

00:37:27 --> 00:37:28

actions of the Sahara?

00:37:28 --> 00:37:31

That's why I'm saying that it's very important

00:37:31 --> 00:37:33

to study and read hadith

00:37:34 --> 00:37:36

because you learn a lot of stuff.

00:37:36 --> 00:37:38

Somebody wrote, they said, wow. I never thought

00:37:38 --> 00:37:40

about what Omar did for ibn

00:37:41 --> 00:37:43

Abbas. What did Musa do for those women

00:37:43 --> 00:37:44

who needed water?

00:37:44 --> 00:37:46

We see this is like a a constant

00:37:47 --> 00:37:48

in the prophetic

00:37:49 --> 00:37:50

salihin community

00:37:51 --> 00:37:53

is to open doors for people and use

00:37:53 --> 00:37:57

whatever power Allah has given somebody to serve

00:37:57 --> 00:37:58

others.

00:38:14 --> 00:38:17

This is telling the prophet he's going to

00:38:17 --> 00:38:17

die.

00:38:18 --> 00:38:19

Informing

00:38:19 --> 00:38:20

him of his

00:38:21 --> 00:38:22

coming death.

00:38:26 --> 00:38:27

This is the only thing I know,

00:38:28 --> 00:38:29

What he said.

00:38:30 --> 00:38:32

And there are numerous narrations

00:38:38 --> 00:38:38

where

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

is providing this kind of contextual

00:38:41 --> 00:38:42

proof for verses.

00:38:45 --> 00:38:48

In the 2 collections of Bukhari and Muslim,

00:38:48 --> 00:38:50

even Abbas has around 500

00:38:50 --> 00:38:51

hadith.

00:38:54 --> 00:38:56

But we said he was only 10

00:38:57 --> 00:38:58

when the prophet died.

00:39:06 --> 00:39:09

He actually only heard 25 hadith directly from

00:39:09 --> 00:39:10

the prophet

00:39:11 --> 00:39:13

So what does that tell you about the

00:39:13 --> 00:39:15

character of ibn Abbas? Even though he's young,

00:39:16 --> 00:39:17

even though he's talented,

00:39:18 --> 00:39:21

even though he's got, you know, the family

00:39:21 --> 00:39:23

of the prophet, he's in the family of

00:39:23 --> 00:39:24

saint. He's from the.

00:39:26 --> 00:39:28

He narrates 500 Hadith and Sahihain.

00:39:30 --> 00:39:33

But 25 of them he only heard from

00:39:33 --> 00:39:34

the Prophet. Where did he get

00:39:35 --> 00:39:36

the other

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

475

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

hadith from?

00:39:40 --> 00:39:42

What does it tell you about him?

00:39:42 --> 00:39:44

Who did he hear the other 475

00:39:45 --> 00:39:47

hadith narrated in Bukhari

00:39:47 --> 00:39:50

since he only heard in Bukhari and Muslim,

00:39:50 --> 00:39:50

excuse me,

00:39:51 --> 00:39:52

25 hadith.

00:39:53 --> 00:39:54

He learned it from other people.

00:39:55 --> 00:39:57

That's humility.

00:40:00 --> 00:40:01

That's humility.

00:40:02 --> 00:40:04

So even though he's from the family of

00:40:04 --> 00:40:05

the prophet

00:40:05 --> 00:40:08

even though the prophet made these beautiful duas

00:40:08 --> 00:40:10

for him, even though he's very knowledgeable of

00:40:10 --> 00:40:10

the Quran.

00:40:12 --> 00:40:13

He's not so

00:40:14 --> 00:40:16

enamored by his own talent

00:40:16 --> 00:40:19

that he's unable to learn from others.

00:40:24 --> 00:40:26

He said, as related by

00:40:26 --> 00:40:27

in

00:40:28 --> 00:40:30

one day I came outside of my house

00:40:31 --> 00:40:32

and I found in

00:40:33 --> 00:40:34

front of my house

00:40:34 --> 00:40:35

cleaning.

00:40:37 --> 00:40:38

And then I said to him, stop it.

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

You are from the Ad of the prophet.

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

You are from the family of Sayidina Muhammad.

00:40:44 --> 00:40:46

Then as Zayd Imo Thabit

00:40:46 --> 00:40:48

began to mount his animal,

00:40:49 --> 00:40:50

ran and he helped him, and then he

00:40:50 --> 00:40:53

took his his his riding animal by the

00:40:53 --> 00:40:54

reins.

00:40:55 --> 00:40:56

And

00:40:57 --> 00:40:59

was guiding the the mount of

00:41:00 --> 00:41:00

through

00:41:01 --> 00:41:02

Madina.

00:41:06 --> 00:41:06

Then,

00:41:08 --> 00:41:09

he said I have to get down.

00:41:11 --> 00:41:13

And Ibra Abbas, he said why? He said

00:41:17 --> 00:41:19

Because this is how we've been commanded to

00:41:19 --> 00:41:20

treat the

00:41:21 --> 00:41:23

the people of the prophet's family.

00:41:24 --> 00:41:26

And then said, wait.

00:41:28 --> 00:41:30

This is how we were ordered to treat

00:41:30 --> 00:41:30

the.

00:41:33 --> 00:41:35

Some of the said we would come outside

00:41:36 --> 00:41:36

and find

00:41:37 --> 00:41:38

waiting in front of our homes.

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

And we would say to him, what are

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

you doing? Just knock on the door. You're

00:41:43 --> 00:41:46

from the household of the prophet salallahu. He

00:41:46 --> 00:41:48

said, yeah, but you are from the Sahaba.

00:41:49 --> 00:41:51

So here we see just in the of

00:41:51 --> 00:41:53

the Hadith. What did we learn? How Amr

00:41:53 --> 00:41:56

ibn Khattab uses his privilege

00:41:56 --> 00:41:59

and his power to open doors for those

00:41:59 --> 00:42:01

in the community who don't have that same

00:42:01 --> 00:42:02

power.

00:42:03 --> 00:42:06

Number 2, we see Ibn Abbas even though

00:42:06 --> 00:42:07

he's incredibly accomplished

00:42:08 --> 00:42:10

and incredibly talented,

00:42:10 --> 00:42:12

He's patient. He's humble.

00:42:13 --> 00:42:15

You know, he doesn't call people out. He

00:42:15 --> 00:42:16

calls people in.

00:42:19 --> 00:42:20

And

00:42:20 --> 00:42:21

he blossoms

00:42:23 --> 00:42:26

and then his humility in being a student.

00:42:26 --> 00:42:27

We're gonna stop now

00:42:28 --> 00:42:29

and next week we'll continue this

00:42:30 --> 00:42:30

narration

00:42:31 --> 00:42:31

of

00:42:32 --> 00:42:34

while either time goes so quick.

00:42:35 --> 00:42:36

This narration of Sayedina

00:42:37 --> 00:42:38

this

00:42:38 --> 00:42:39

is

00:42:47 --> 00:42:49

that the last verses sent to the prophet,

00:42:49 --> 00:42:51

the last verse with the verse about riba,

00:42:51 --> 00:42:52

insert,

00:42:54 --> 00:42:56

and then inshallah we'll continue

00:42:56 --> 00:42:58

next week inshallah. Any questions

00:42:59 --> 00:43:01

I ask some people what are some of

00:43:01 --> 00:43:02

the challenges about

00:43:03 --> 00:43:04

not being able

00:43:05 --> 00:43:07

to engage and be part of the community.

00:43:07 --> 00:43:09

It's really upsetting and sad when people say

00:43:09 --> 00:43:10

trauma.

00:43:11 --> 00:43:14

We have to start to think about creating

00:43:14 --> 00:43:15

not just words,

00:43:16 --> 00:43:18

but systems that help people who have had

00:43:18 --> 00:43:20

bad experiences within religious communities.

00:43:20 --> 00:43:22

This is, like, really important, man.

00:43:23 --> 00:43:24

Helping people heal.

00:43:26 --> 00:43:28

Moin, if you can, type that question again.

00:43:28 --> 00:43:31

It's a long question, man. But I'll I'll

00:43:31 --> 00:43:32

see if I remember correctly.

00:43:33 --> 00:43:34

Is asking, but like at the time of

00:43:34 --> 00:43:37

the process from the fitna isn't like it

00:43:37 --> 00:43:39

is now. Well, actually, it some scholars say

00:43:39 --> 00:43:40

it was worse. Right?

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

The prophet made tawaf and people were naked

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

in the Kaaba.

00:43:45 --> 00:43:46

They were worshiping idols,

00:43:47 --> 00:43:49

the people tried to kill him, they they

00:43:49 --> 00:43:51

tried to kill his family,

00:43:52 --> 00:43:54

they were physically torturing his

00:43:54 --> 00:43:56

his his community. I mean, you know, you'd

00:43:56 --> 00:43:59

walk outside and see someone being tortured.

00:44:00 --> 00:44:02

So that's why the generality of the prophet's

00:44:02 --> 00:44:03

teachings,

00:44:04 --> 00:44:04

faith,

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

knowledge,

00:44:06 --> 00:44:07

community,

00:44:08 --> 00:44:08

practice.

00:44:09 --> 00:44:10

These are the solutions

00:44:11 --> 00:44:12

for these issues. Right?

00:44:13 --> 00:44:14

Knowledge,

00:44:14 --> 00:44:15

community,

00:44:16 --> 00:44:17

devotion,

00:44:17 --> 00:44:18

and resilience.

00:44:18 --> 00:44:19

These are the foundations

00:44:20 --> 00:44:22

that can help us really engage in any

00:44:22 --> 00:44:23

situation and

00:44:24 --> 00:44:25

financial support.

00:44:27 --> 00:44:29

So so actually in his time, I would

00:44:29 --> 00:44:31

argue except in certain parts of the Muslim

00:44:31 --> 00:44:33

world, may Allah help our brothers and sisters

00:44:33 --> 00:44:36

in Kashmir, the Rohiniya, and Palestine, and other

00:44:36 --> 00:44:36

places.

00:44:37 --> 00:44:39

You know, we got it pretty good compared

00:44:39 --> 00:44:40

to them.

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

Yes. We already discussed the 10 verses of

00:44:44 --> 00:44:44

and

00:44:45 --> 00:44:48

for those of you, I'll give you example.

00:44:48 --> 00:44:50

Like, we operate a school now online. It's

00:44:50 --> 00:44:52

only $10 a month. Like, you get this

00:44:52 --> 00:44:53

kind of education

00:44:53 --> 00:44:55

all the time. 500

00:44:55 --> 00:44:58

hours of recorded material, live interactions with myself

00:44:58 --> 00:44:59

and other teachers.

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

For the cost of 2 cups of coffee.

00:45:02 --> 00:45:04

If you go to suhayweb.com,

00:45:04 --> 00:45:06

someone can type it in the comments box

00:45:06 --> 00:45:08

for me. Sign up, man. Help us out.

00:45:08 --> 00:45:10

Like, that's the type of scaling and effort

00:45:10 --> 00:45:12

that we need. Like, even if you don't

00:45:12 --> 00:45:15

use it, you know that we have 250

00:45:15 --> 00:45:16

people on scholarship.

00:45:17 --> 00:45:19

So someone else will use it,

00:45:20 --> 00:45:22

but the idea of scaling so the prophet

00:45:22 --> 00:45:25

doesn't just simply create a theoretical community. He's

00:45:25 --> 00:45:27

like, no, man. You gotta you gotta do

00:45:27 --> 00:45:27

some spending,

00:45:28 --> 00:45:30

man. Right? You gotta put some money into

00:45:30 --> 00:45:31

scaling

00:45:31 --> 00:45:31

institution

00:45:33 --> 00:45:34

so that people can grow and build. Our

00:45:34 --> 00:45:37

plan is to start to train Islamic studies

00:45:37 --> 00:45:38

teachers and imams

00:45:38 --> 00:45:41

so that we have qualified people, right, who

00:45:41 --> 00:45:42

are thank you so much,

00:45:43 --> 00:45:44

engaged.

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

Right? It's very important. So run on over

00:45:47 --> 00:45:48

to suhayngrub.com

00:45:49 --> 00:45:50

and support the revolution.

00:45:53 --> 00:45:55

Any other questions? If you missed it today,

00:45:56 --> 00:45:58

we recorded it, and I'm recording it now,

00:45:58 --> 00:46:00

like, with a good camera, so we'll post

00:46:00 --> 00:46:01

it later also

00:46:04 --> 00:46:06

inshallah. Hope that everybody is doing well,

00:46:06 --> 00:46:07

you know, and

00:46:08 --> 00:46:09

some people are sharing

00:46:10 --> 00:46:12

some of the concerns they have about getting

00:46:12 --> 00:46:14

into community. I think we need to start

00:46:14 --> 00:46:16

talk about post COVID 19.

00:46:16 --> 00:46:18

How community just have to change in certain

00:46:18 --> 00:46:19

ways.

00:46:20 --> 00:46:22

Thank you. Everybody is doing better.

00:46:24 --> 00:46:26

Having mirrors in the bedroom is allowed. The

00:46:26 --> 00:46:27

prophet had a mirror.

00:46:29 --> 00:46:30

It's okay to have a mirror in your

00:46:30 --> 00:46:31

bedroom.

00:46:31 --> 00:46:33

Candy man ain't about to jump out that

00:46:33 --> 00:46:34

mirror.

00:46:34 --> 00:46:36

Those of you know, candy man.

00:46:36 --> 00:46:38

Right? He's not about to jump out that

00:46:38 --> 00:46:39

mirror. You're good.

00:46:40 --> 00:46:40

You're

00:46:40 --> 00:46:41

good.

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

Sheikh, what are your thoughts on the election?

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

You know, I actually posted something on Instagram

00:46:48 --> 00:46:50

today. I'm doing a series every Friday on

00:46:50 --> 00:46:53

political theology, you'll find my thoughts there.

00:46:54 --> 00:46:56

You will find my thoughts on the election

00:46:56 --> 00:46:57

there.

00:46:57 --> 00:47:00

Right? And and trying to provide some language

00:47:00 --> 00:47:01

on

00:47:01 --> 00:47:04

political thought theology within the American context.

00:47:04 --> 00:47:06

And I I'm very clear on

00:47:07 --> 00:47:09

my position on on on,

00:47:10 --> 00:47:11

the election.

00:47:12 --> 00:47:14

Right? So it's there. My wife follows you

00:47:14 --> 00:47:16

is when she could talk, like, what sisters

00:47:16 --> 00:47:17

also in the group.

00:47:18 --> 00:47:19

I I I mean, I'm sure if there's

00:47:19 --> 00:47:21

sisters here who want to I know on

00:47:21 --> 00:47:24

on Facebook, we have, like, a support group

00:47:24 --> 00:47:24

for Swiss.

00:47:25 --> 00:47:27

So you can go and join there, the

00:47:27 --> 00:47:30

Swiss community, the virtual community on Facebook. I

00:47:30 --> 00:47:32

encourage everyone to go there, and then we

00:47:32 --> 00:47:34

can start to create small halakat

00:47:34 --> 00:47:36

for sisters and so on and brothers.

00:47:37 --> 00:47:38

Is a female leader not a pro no.

00:47:38 --> 00:47:41

Female leader is acceptable. Don't don't listen to

00:47:41 --> 00:47:42

some of this stuff, man. Build peace in

00:47:42 --> 00:47:43

the Quran.

00:47:43 --> 00:47:45

You have build peace in the Quran, and

00:47:45 --> 00:47:46

we have a very important principle in the

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

Quran.

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

That if Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala mentions something

00:47:50 --> 00:47:51

in the Quran

00:47:51 --> 00:47:54

and then doesn't mention it's haram, it's understood

00:47:54 --> 00:47:54

to be permissible.

00:47:56 --> 00:47:57

Yeah.

00:47:57 --> 00:47:59

And of course, we understand the hadith and

00:47:59 --> 00:48:01

but there's a context to this hadith also

00:48:01 --> 00:48:02

and

00:48:02 --> 00:48:03

they differ about its application.

00:48:05 --> 00:48:07

And say he put a woman in charge

00:48:07 --> 00:48:08

of the market in Medina.

00:48:10 --> 00:48:10

So does

00:48:11 --> 00:48:12

no problem with this kind of stuff.

00:48:17 --> 00:48:18

I mean, you too. Thank you for doing.

00:48:18 --> 00:48:20

My family is doing much better now.

00:48:21 --> 00:48:23

Even the grandma make dua for her, she's

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

doing

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

okay.

00:48:26 --> 00:48:28

I heard from Jin point of view, they

00:48:28 --> 00:48:30

live in mirrors and some other stuff. At

00:48:30 --> 00:48:32

night time they come up after

00:48:33 --> 00:48:35

or picks in the home. No. No. If

00:48:35 --> 00:48:37

you watch my series and the highlights on

00:48:37 --> 00:48:37

the spooky,

00:48:38 --> 00:48:40

I talk about jinns in great detail. Jinns

00:48:40 --> 00:48:42

do not live in mirrors. They do not

00:48:43 --> 00:48:45

jump out of mirrors and no. No. No.

00:48:45 --> 00:48:46

Just say

00:48:50 --> 00:48:52

So I said, if she's looking for a

00:48:52 --> 00:48:55

sister's community, we don't offer specifically then, but

00:48:55 --> 00:48:57

she can find it maybe if she goes,

00:48:57 --> 00:48:58

you go to the Facebook page.

00:48:59 --> 00:49:01

For myself, when we have there what's called

00:49:01 --> 00:49:02

the Swiss Swiss,

00:49:03 --> 00:49:05

online community, and she could join there and

00:49:05 --> 00:49:08

perhaps she can find some people, you know,

00:49:08 --> 00:49:08

some sisters.

00:49:12 --> 00:49:15

Some say it's haram to be a judge

00:49:15 --> 00:49:16

in a non Muslim country. Is this true?

00:49:16 --> 00:49:17

No. This is not true.

00:49:18 --> 00:49:19

Saying that Yusuf

00:49:20 --> 00:49:22

right insult to Yusuf. He asked

00:49:24 --> 00:49:26

a state to make him in charge.

00:49:27 --> 00:49:30

And it involves ruling and engagement. So no.

00:49:30 --> 00:49:30

No.

00:49:31 --> 00:49:33

Again, we need to be you should listen

00:49:33 --> 00:49:35

to this series I have on political theology.

00:49:35 --> 00:49:37

I'm gonna get into that in more detail

00:49:37 --> 00:49:38

later.

00:49:38 --> 00:49:41

And historically, there's great precedence for these Muslims

00:49:41 --> 00:49:41

in

00:49:42 --> 00:49:45

in Southern Italy actually had their Sharia law

00:49:45 --> 00:49:47

and they also would utilize at times,

00:49:48 --> 00:49:50

the Italian law where they lived.

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

So

00:49:55 --> 00:49:57

no. Is it allowed to buy stuffed toys

00:49:57 --> 00:49:59

for children? Yeah. Say that Aisha, she used

00:49:59 --> 00:50:00

to play with dolls.

00:50:03 --> 00:50:05

Right? The children of the played with dolls.

00:50:05 --> 00:50:07

This is basically narrated,

00:50:08 --> 00:50:09

on behalf companions of the

00:50:13 --> 00:50:16

prophet. Again, your support would be great if

00:50:16 --> 00:50:17
