hamdulillah
no matter who want to stay in or want to stop
and rely initially on phocoena will say yeah to Medina we have the love and mo de la mejor de la shadow Allah in a in a low active order shady color was shadow Anna Mohammed and I have the whole Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa early he was having your supplements Yesterday my god dammit, Dean, Am I bad? We're not going to warm up today. Because today is
serious. It's not that any other day wasn't serious, but we really do have to cover quite a bit of material today. And as you can all see, we are still under the concept that broad concept dealing with the migration to a laws, messengers a lie, there was something we covered what that means it's important. And we started with the
the first text so it'll pay him now is going to after he's made this claim that his hello to the Prophet alayhi salaatu wa Salaam is an obligation after he's defined what that means and how how it entails total obedience to the messenger Allah salatu salam in terms of his commands and prohibitions and believing in what he has said that the meaning of it in fact that the meaning of that hedgerow to the Prophet sallahu wa salam is encompassed by our testimony that Mohammed sallallahu wasallam is a slave and messenger of Allah.
So he's going to bring us several texts, and we said that the first one is on page 27. And it goes from page 27 to 33. And the Leela Thani. The second text that we're going to cover is on page 34, starts on page 34. So I just want us to realize that everything that he's talking about, and these seven pages from 27 to 33, everything that he's covering there is dealing with that if for that, what a bigger, let me know when I had to you had the mocha, female shedule obey No, you have to be able to follow that flow of thought. And even as you'll see, coming up the the, the translator has made certain chapters and put certain Title Headings in and, and it it gets confusing for the second
text. And I will talk about that when we get there. But so I really want you to follow the flow. Alright, so right now, if you didn't do it last week, go to page 34.
You see where it says the profits right on the believers? page 34.
All right. So there you want to write a delille a Thani or the second text.
Right? And you should probably also under on page 27. Okay, so everybody did what you need to do on 34. So go back to page 27, which is where we're going to start today. Where it says the messengers judgment, the greatest oath, make sure right there you write the Leland owl or the first text, and then put in parentheses and the second text is on page 34. So that you know next time because you might forget six months down the line, you come back and you read it. You might forget that. So when there's when the book is I'm not calling the disjointed but when there's several
or longer explanation in between things, you need to be able to make notes for yourself so that you know where you're going.
Alright, so Bismillah
we started here
last week even though time Rahim Allah Allahu Tada. He says that Allah subhanho wa Taala says follow up because you know, Hector, you had chemo kaffeemaschine as your avena home. So mala g ruffian fusi him hydrogen, hydrogen Min methylates where you suddenly moved Taslima But no, okay and this is actually important that this is translated like this As you'll see when we get there inshallah button up, followed by your Lord, they will not believe until they make you a judge in all disputes that arise among them.
They make you a judge, and then find within themselves no resistance against your judgment. And we're going to talk about this. No claim is gonna break down each of these points in detail inshallah and submit to it to the fullest submission. publish it here, Allah Subhana Allah makes the greatest Oh, I know we started reading this last week, but just for the purpose of the microphone. Okay.
I'll start I started shall also we don't. For the sake of time here Allah Subhana data makes the greatest oath, swearing by himself subhanho wa Taala that he men will not be confirmed for a person nor would he count as one of the believers until he makes his messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the judge in all issues of dispute and in all aspects of the deep time. When we talk about the dean, there are issues
about which there is no dispute whatsoever. And those are called issues of H Mac.
Okay. And then there are many other issues where there is a difference of opinion amongst the scholars, people who are not scholars who are not of this field, they have no right to talk about it in the first place.
And that's very important to realize even sometimes, you know, you'll find that the answer panela, almost every scholar of the past has held a certain opinion. And then somebody who is not from the schatten, and this is not even his field, okay, he's whatever you might be, he comes in, then he makes some weird fatawa. And then other people cling on to it, say, well, so and so said, and he's, you know, he's a shape or whatnot. Let the even even even matters of dispute have levels. Okay? If we wanted to break it down to make it very distant, simple terms, if you start talking about the form of dad, right, the the main schools of the, but let's just call them
I know they call them 50 schools, right. But a meth head actually, basically what it is, it's a different approach to interpreting texts, or different methodology of interpretive text. Sometimes, they all come to the same conclusion, even though they they use different ways to get there. And oftentimes they won't, because they have a different methodology of, of looking at the text. And sometimes it may even be what they call moral jihad. So for example, how do I determine that this takes precedent over over that this takes precedence over that. So in any event, let's just break it down to those four. If you find that two metal heads hold a certain position, and two metal hubs
hold a different position, then usually that's that's strong enough, right? That usually is going to mean that, because you're talking about a great group of scholars who have looked at the same evidence and come to different conclusions, this is something that was even happened during the time of the Prophet alayhi salatu salam, where he would give the companions instruction, some of them would understand one thing from the statement and others would understand a different thing from the statement of the Prophet it was today. And he would not come down on either one of those groups, even though he only meant one thing. Right? The point here is what the in those matters of dispute?
What's our job?
What's your job? Find out what up because, you know, no one had tell you hacky MOOC, they don't have Amen, until they make you the judge.
Me until the Prophet alayhi salatu was Salam becomes the judge. Now, look, this does not mean and I again, I don't want to go too far to things. But it's important for us to understand doesn't mean that a person can study a method, learn a method for filk. Right. In fact, one of the easiest ways to learn Islam, to learn fifth is to first study a method. Every scholar of Islam, just about every scholar of Islam has done. So even the ones who reached the level of HDL, and start out as moose ad, you have to start somewhere. You start out with a method because a mother had a systematic, you need a systematic approach to knowledge, right? But ultimately, if you're going to be a real student of
knowledge and travel, the path of the scholars, then ultimately was going to happen. And even when you're following a method, it doesn't mean Well, let me see what email Atma said. Even though I know what the prophet SAW it, someone said, Well, let me see what the man Abu hanifa said, even though I know what the prophet alayhi salatu salam said, with now, what did he say about that statement of the prophets? I said, How did he understand that that's a different story. But not that we tried to hit different people's statements against the statement of the Prophet Alayhi. Salatu was saying against his teachings, and there's a difference. There's a difference. And this is what leads some
people to having a tassel or, you know, basically blind following of a particular way, other than the way of Mohammed, even Abdullah, some light or some and that's a very glossing over but it is really important for us to understand that in matters of dispute, it may be matters of dispute is between two people in the same house. The judge is the Prophet sallallahu wasallam Do we have something from Revelation that will allow us to, to settle this dispute? And then that has to be the mentality? There has to be the mindset. Is there something from the Sunnah of our Prophet alayhi salatu salam from his teachings that would guide me in this particular matter.
So here, he says the term all disputes and this I serves in negating Amen, if the message is allied with salams judgment is not accepted in all disputes. Furthermore, it's not just that it's not accepted. Now you don't even seek it out.
Right which is, which is
important part time fellowship.
burden. Jaffe keytab, we set out to book a nap by him rahimullah called billing lesion.
similar to this, furthermore, page 28 at the time.
Furthermore, a loss upon what the ally requires the hearts contentment with the messengers judgment, so that one find no resistance to it, resistance to it within oneself. Thus, one must receive His judgment with satisfaction, submission and contentment. receiving it with dissatisfaction or reluctance is contradictory to Emad. How is it contradictory to you, man, because the law says they don't believe until therefore, there's that faith is not going to be complete, until these things happen. And the second one is what some mala g Do you ever see him how Raja they don't find any resistance? They don't find any irritation with that judgment, because how did you like you're
irritated by
into the point is it okay, as I mentioned, you wish that you had never even heard this hadith.
Right? So it's it's important that, that that's not the way that we receive the teachings of the Prophet alayhi salatu salam
and that we accept it. As you can see here, a man is negated from people until these three things occur making the profit the judge being content with his judgment.
And you think about it makes perfect sense. But we, I mean, you know, if we, if we look at it from from several angles,
if you had if you were the employer, you had an employee, you told your employee what you wanted them to do that day. And they did it, but they had an attitude the whole time?
How would you feel about that?
I mean, is that the type of employee that you want? Do you feel like this is the type of person or you notice if your boss says something to you, and you, and you just the whole day, breathing heavy, and you're showing that even though you're doing it, it's you don't like? That's, that's not how that will not be accepted between an employer and an employee. So how much more so between a slave of Allah Subhana Allah, and the one whom he said, as a as a messenger? That's, that's not the way we react. In fact, in fact, and this is, this is interesting.
There are people who don't want to hear, please don't tell me I don't want to know,
as if you're willing, you know that I forget what they call it is a legal term for that willful ignorance or something like that? Well, in other words, you had the ability to know the law, but you willingly did not know it, you actively did not learn. Right? So you're still held accountable,
is still held accountable. It's not one of those things where you think that because you don't, you don't know what you could have known that you're not held accountable. So it's very important that we realize that this the other thing is to recognize that the Prophet sallallahu wasallam is Rahim on behalf of the oma. And he is the one who is the Most Merciful with this oma his teachings and a Salatu. Salam, our mercy first, even if, even if initially, we feel like it's difficult to do this thing.
Or there's a prohibition and it's something that you desire to do. But you realize that the Prophet sallallahu wasallam is is instructing you not to do it, realize that that's from his mercy, it has a lot to say, because what's going to make you content is to know that the source of those teachings, once Good for you,
the source of those teachings once go free.
You know, the prophet, Allah is with john
admonishing the Prophet alayhi salatu salam the Koran by by just stating his condition for Laila cover, birth, you know, nafsa Allah, I said him 30 lm Yamuna, we had an odd SFR.
Right, it's, it's Allah Subhana, Allah is saying to the Prophet is Allah to say, you know, you're tearing yourself up, you're torn from the on the inside, right? Because what because these people won't believe in, in what you're telling them. But why was the Prophet torn from the inside suppliers?
Because he loved his people. That's number one. Number two is because he he knew with full certainty what the outcome was for the disobedience
and that that outcome was going to be a painful torment.
And so because of that, he was able he knew what the end result was a saying look, fat looks
admit to Allah, because if you don't, this is what's going to happen. And he did not want that to happen to them.
Yes he when the Prophet alayhi salatu salam is coming to us and he's teaching us from his scenario salatu salam, those teachings are for our benefit. The prophets Allah wa sallam is going to get his reward from a loss parents, either whether a person believes or doesn't believe follows us sooner doesn't fall sooner. The promise I sort of did his job which was unbelievable. he conveyed the message.
Our job is to follow.
And so his this is the this is the point how do we come content?
How do we become content with the judgment of the Prophet is not to say is to know that he is only teaching us
what is good for us. He's teaching us from his mercy. And he has a lot to say.
And then ultimately, he's only teaching us with a loss of hair which Allah told him to convey. And Allah is what the * is our Rahim Allah men of Karim, at a web, Al Hakim subhanho wa Tada. And so what what is coming to us as wisdom, it's helping us learn how to live.
And if you don't do that, and you live a life of disobedience, you're not going to be happy here. We're law II. People who disobeyed loss of habitat, they find inside themselves that void, they are looking for so many other things to fill that void. They're looking for other people to fill that void. They're looking for entertainment to fill that void, they looking for anything and some of the things that they looking for a good you know, they get involved in, you know, social activities, feeding people in, but not for the pleasure of Allah but for the pleasure of themselves feels good when you help other people.
But wait, is that is that
happening? The point is, I mean, that's another level of the class, but the point is that what when a person is not making a profit, it is Samantha was sitting there judge it putting other things in place to be the judge. That is a path of destruction in this life. And in the next
follow.
Important test it says an important test. If a person wishes to know where he stands and be glad to this matter, he should examine himself and inspect his art. When adjusted from the messenger. So below, I knew he was going to be guiding a major or minor issue comes conflicting with his desire or differing from the way of his ancestors. Allah subhanho wa Taala says, bended in Sam and NFC, he will see you will our phone.
Rather the human being will be a witness against himself, even though he will present his excuses, exhausted, be alone. How often do some people know the statement said by the messenger savola when he was sent and wish that they were never said that Verizon in their hearts and what dryness in their throats and some of them that some of the text leave their secret thoughts will surely be revealed to them stop, stop right there and shut down. So here it will pay him by him Allah is showing that there are groups of people who totally reject or disregard the statements of the prophet Isaiah is allowed to sit down because they go against their intellects, for example.
Like a deadly Metal Hammer Allah Allah said about Hadith and newzoo and the Hadith, where the Prophet alayhi salatu was Salam said that a lot of how it's added descends in the last third of the night.
And he calls out Holman
den for ag Buddha. And he is there someone calling over he will miss editor is there somebody calling upon me so I can answer this question has been stuck on for a while. And is this someone seeking my forgiveness so that I can forgive him?
This this Hadeeth was narrated by over 30 companions of the Prophet it has a lot to say which is rare that's that's not a that's not the norm when it comes to have either a profit on a slice per se I think 32 campaigns at a profit it so I was sitting at their Demeter himolla. He said, there's there's no Hadith of the young adult Jamia min head, and in other words that makes them more enraged than this Hadith of the Prophet alayhi salaatu saying because they deny this effect of a loss, they deny His attributes. And all of that is again, these are these are mental gymnastics that they perform
that led them to this particular conclusion.
And so because of that when they hear these statements from the Prophet alayhi salaatu save actually makes them angry.
Alright, just like the other people whose HAUER
And he prevents them from accepting
Certain Hadith of the Prophet on insolence will say so because they want to listen to music any Hadith that comes about music find a way to make it dive we got to find a way to explain it away which is what people do with so many other Hadith of the Prophet it Sciences is figure out a way to explain it away
Let's find some scholar of the past search through
yeah and it's okay to mustardy right believe and then go find some some dillio for you belief which which is the opposite of he died
is that didn't match up it
go look for you know look at the evidence with the look what the evidence says and then and then believe but again you know Subhanallah what happens is you know when a person so like he says here so Pamela How often do some people load the statements of the messenger sliders and and would be would be him they would never say ages wish that they never that this hadith was never said so how
they are secret thoughts.
So So even if they why the doing what they're supposed to do, the fact that they don't accept it, me
it's not going to avail them
because because for now what a big manana Hector you hacky McAfee message sumaila he doofy unfussy him haha. And then it will find any irritation within themselves. You also have law and this cool i mean this is across the board across the board.
peep in this is why you just have to you have like we mentioned last week I believe, when the Prophet de Salatu was Salam said in the mill Elmo with alum, right, that knowledge is by learning, which everybody knows. So I started the Hadeeth like that we're in the Mill Hill movie tandem. And you get you learn how to be forbearance by trying by forcing yourself. So how do you get to the point where you're content with everything that the message is? force yourself? Ask Allah Subhana Allah make it easy for you?
Right? I mean, these are these are things that are important that Allah Subhana Allah opens your heart to even that Allah Subhana Allah makes your heart firm on the deen. As you don't find any resistance, the prophesized soundset mess has done. That's it. It's nothing else to talk about. Now, does that mean that the person is quoting it understands what it means is interpreting it properly? Not necessarily. Not necessarily. But the point is, once somebody says, kala, kala Rasulullah, sallAllahu wasallam, then there has to be a different approach, you don't just start throwing that stuff out the window.
Now,
this approach was surely be revealed to them, causing them pain and humiliation on that day, young man to bless.
The day when all the secrets of hearts and intentions will be uncovered and tried no less than the fullest sufficient or lost upon what the AMA concludes the above iron of suit attorney sat for 65 by requiring absolute submission to the messenger and there is nothing worse than that is to his judgments and commands. This submission is not that of a defeated fighter who is forced to surrender to his enemy, rather, is the submission of an obedient subordinate to his master, who is dearest to him, realizing that only through this submission, will he achieve happiness and success. Yeah, you want to underline it, only through this submission will want to achieve happiness and success.
Everybody's looking for happiness and success. It doesn't matter what type of you know what religion they follow, or if they follow no religion. Everybody's looking for happiness and looking for success. They don't know how to define success. And happiness is not a goal they can attain. Without submission.
Father, is this is the submission of a person who realizes that compared to himself, his master has more rights on him has more concern and compassion for him. So panela has more concern and compassion for him. I mean, I know he's talking about the relationship between slave and master which is really interesting because I mean, obviously it's difficult for us to relate our our even our concept of slavery is the chattel slavery that was here in America was very different from
you know, the slavery that was practiced in that part of the world. But But beyond that, it even if if we can take a look, I think about a parent and a child, like a parent, and a child is very young to write five or six years old. For example, who
who actually has more concern and compassion for the child, the child himself or the parent, the parent,
the parent has more compassion for that child and the child has for him or herself. And recognizes things, obviously. And this is the part where where it gets even better, right? Says for him, it he goes on to say in is a superior counselor actually say error because we're unsolo. Yeah. And he that he is actually truer to him than himself. Right? Who has better knowledge of what benefits him who has more knowledge of what is beneficial? That's it. And again, let's leave the example just for the sake of understanding better the parent in the child who knows what's better for the job? The parent of the child? Depends on the Yes, yes, the child and they definitely know more.
Yeah, and and is therefore what is therefore more capable of assisting.
And this is the relationship that MLK was trying to get us to understand when it comes to the prophet Isaiah Salatu was sent him and his relationship to the believers. It's like that relationship with the parent to the child, the prophet alayhi salatu was saying I was still considered was taken to the seven heavens, the prophets align it with some small things that we'll never see until the year after, if we see them then. Right. And he was given revelation from Allah subhanaw taala. His his knowledge is not secondhand knowledge, is knowledge is direct. And so his care for the believers as he is when Allah He may aneurysm Harrison article with more meaning or
overall him, his, his care for the believers, His mercy and compassion for the believers is beyond what we have for ourselves, believe them.
believe that. So he's not going to teach us something that is going to harm us.
It is his job as he some of it was seldom said, and the job of every messenger to teach the oma what is best for them, and encourage them to do it and to warn them from what is harmful to them, and discourage them from it, to keep you know, warn them from doing
so this is this is the relationship that he's laying out and he's saying that once we realize that, once we realize that then it should be easy for us to do the third thing that is necessary which is surrendering, wholehearted
surrendering wholeheartedly. In other words, just give up, don't fight it. Don't fight it. That's not a that's not a battle, you're gonna win anyway. Okay.
If you guys keep fighting a battle that you can't win, it's gonna do nothing but exhaustion, and then it actually affects your judgment as well.
You're mentally exhausted, physically exhausted now.
To the end surrender to the messenger.
When a person realizes these meetings with respect to the messenger, at least to that person, and he would surely submit himself to him and he said, After listening and surrender every desire in his art, out of obedience, out of obedience to Him, and this is our obligation, a lot of has commanded us to obey His Messenger, and all messengers were sought were sent for what reason, now of a sudden number rosulip illa Li utara. Allah we have not sent a messenger except for the purpose of being obeyed. Man, we even learn biologically not, he would comprehend that he cannot attain happiness, except through this submission and obedience. This matter is not easy to express with words, the
heart needs to open up for it to allow it to sink down to its depths. In this matter is not easy to express with words and he's going to emphasize this in a minute. Your heart needs to open up for it, to allow it to sink down into steps. You just got it sometimes repetition is important. Just go back and just read this a number of times and ask Allah subhana wa tada alumnium Why did my Adam Adam de Leon mufa him so they manifest him me? Allah The one who has taught Adam Teach me and the one who has given so they man the understanding give me understanding, right? You add just you know some Hello some of our Michelle. I remember one of
one of the shakes he said when he remembers when he was six or seven years old when he would read a book and couldn't understand I'm thinking six or seven. This is the roadmap six or seven years old he can understand something he say we just go and ask a lot raise his hand say like 100 times alumni Mr. alumni, Mr. Lima Adam Alinea. I'm famous for a man if I him me.
I'll tell you later.
Like, no,
it cannot it cannot be attained by mere claims or wishes. a poet's once said
he wants to be Laila. Were they allowed to
be that guy?
Yeah, well, they were Leila to keep food on the deck.
Everyone claims to be the lover of Layla. But Layla does not commit any of them. Well, I mean, I don't know if that's the best way to translate that I don't anyway, I go back and look at what's the explanation of it. But the off the top when it says we couldn't get the worst Lambie, Layla and each, everyone is claiming that they have a connection to later, right that they have a connection, sir, when they let's look at what she's saying. Not that she's not committing. She's not even admitting in the first place that she has any connection to any of them. Right. But basically, this is what a lot of what I mentioned is this bait and this
line of poetry.
When people make claims claims are nothing but claims anybody can say anything. Anybody can make any kind of claim. I love the Messenger of Allah He can say it so budget, it's not gonna mean that you love the message. It is a lie to say that.
I fear no one but Allah, right.
So they get put in a gym and a really difficult situation and then you know, then a lot of way out of it.
Indeed, indeed, there is a great difference between knowing the meaning of love and being truly in love. The people often confuse between knowledge and experience. Yeah, people confuse between knowledge. Yeah, you know, all the definitions, you know all of this, but are you really living like that? He then this is what he brought to say similar to this. Similar to this is the example of a sick man who was under the influence of disease, you think about him, he's in the hospital, he's sick on machines. If you ask him, what's health look like I can tell you where healthy is and how you know how to eat healthy can tell you all of those things. But he's stuck on a machine. So just
because he knows what being healthy means does not mean he's healthy. Just because you know what it means to follow the messenger it has a lot to say doesn't mean it's happening, or that you you know what it means to love a lot doesn't mean that it's happening.
He knows the meaning of health and well being how ever his knowledge does not enable him to experience the health enjoyed by a healthy person, even if the latter even if the healthy person could not describe itself the condition in an expressive manner. Another example is that of two persons, one of them knowing the meaning of fear and the other being subjected to it and really experiencing it, right. So this is even though cayambe Maha mahalo tada and explaining to us the the meaning of this verse, okay, for now what a beaker lie. Amina hepta, you hacky mocha, femap shedule, la mina home, now.
tight. So now, if you look on page 30,
it says, emphasizing submission to the messages Elias out of that that's the title that was given by the translator. Hopefully the Hola. Basically, he's going to, even though cayambe is going to present five ways that this idea which I was talking about, by the way,
right, sort of to Nisha 65th, I, okay, is going to show five ways that this AI emphasizes the meanings that have proceeded meaning what the obedience of to the messenger ra salatu salam, making him that judge, you know, accepting what he has to say, without resistance without irritation and fully submitting to him. So there's five ways that he's that this has been emphasized or that the obligation of obeying the Prophet alayhi salaatu snana has been emphasized number one proceeding an oath proceeding number one proceeding with negation or loss upon them with the added proceeds the oath with the negation, but no, by your Lord. Okay.
He says he says But no, but no, by your Lord fella. fella, what a bigger the Wow, what Rob beaker. Okay. That Wow, is the Wow, this used for the custom. Okay, I mean, it's used to make the oath and that's why and what comes after it is going to have that Kesler so that's why people say what what law heat right will lie. Because when you use that while there that was the wild customer is going to make is going to make what comes after
Have the castle So, but but before we even get to the oath we get the filat. Okay, so there's a negation before the oath and that actually emphasizes or puts emphasis on the oath, when what you are swearing to is being negated.
Okay? That's what he's gonna talk about. But
this is a well known style in the original language of the Arabs. When a sentence contains a negation. It starts with a negated oath. Okay, when a sentence contains a negation, it starts with the negated type who can translate the ayah from Surah? Nisa? What is the I say?
An English
but No, none of you believe by your Lord. What a big lad what you mean? No, they don't believe that's, that's the negation they don't believe. So. The gating, right? There's negation of faith. And that's why the oath starts with a negation follow. Okay.
So is he saying it twice? Well, so it's not a double negation, like we would have an English double negation in English actually is affirmation, right? Or in any language? Probably. But, but, yeah, it's double in that sense that it starts out with a with a laugh, and then it's now you know, so it's like last year.
For instance, I said, he
said, he says, Let her lie. Let her lie. You see that? Let her lie that that hat is actually like a Wow. Okay, that hat is actually like allowance. So it's like lab will lie. Yeah. Lie. Yeah, me too. Isla Austen. Oh, Isla acid in Stila you call to Annie la hora su de for your Tikka Salah. Okay, go ahead. No Bye. Oh, God, he shall not proceed one of the last lions who fought for Allah and His messenger and give you his booty. All right. Look at the
read this. The occasion. This is in a footnote, this isn't a footnote, that that translation of selam as booty is not correct, and I will get them shot like
they really the occasion for the same is that which was recorded by Ambleside Iraqi Mullah number three 1.2 and Muslim Ramallah 1751 from Abu Qatada.
variola, who and the hidden sweat the profits over low and he was selling during the Battle of nature. While the Muslims were in the heat of the fight, Abu Qatada observed a man from among the pagans about to kill a Muslim. He ran from behind and hit him with his sword between the soldiers shoulders, the shoulders, the peg in turn, George Abu Qatada heljan and squeezed him so hard that no one thought he was about to die. But what like then death came to the * anybody Abu Qatada. Alright, so what happened here Abu Qatada saw one of the mushriks about the killer Muslim.
And he came up from behind them. And he, he hit him with a sword. And he was thinking that he was already dead, or that he was gonna like die immediately. But this machine turned around and grabbed them so hard. He said that I thought I was going to die. Just from the way he was squeezing me. And then finally what happened was, he said, fell, he's about to die, but then death came to him. So as he was squeezing as the mushrik was squeezing Abu Qatada he died. Okay, sorry. The mushrik died. Yeah, now I will contend now we'll get dead tight. And then he released Abu Qatada after the battle, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said man, cartoner catiline level, Allah He Bane shizuo,
Allah II, II, II,
II II, II and he he has proof that this person he was the one that killed this person right then he has his cell up. Now, if you look, I gave a definition there last month data and
adequate how it says the personal belongings of an enemy slain during battles such as clothes, weapons, other equipment, some of the lemma and it is a difference of opinion monster fuqaha is for example, His riding mount including included in the setup or is that in fact from the minima, right, so we talked about the minima is the spoils of war. All right, which which is different. Budi is an old fashioned word
They use that for like, like plunder when it's pirates and stuff you know that's really not the way you would want to translate this The other thing here is that even if you use duty to me spoils of war
what's on this person's what is on the slain you know enemies person belongs to the one who who actively was involved in killing him alright
which is different from the the spoils of war which is split up amongst you know those who were fighting and a fifth of it is for baitul mount for a lot of hands out in the message area so like to city right so it doesn't it a fifth of it is taken away and then the rest is is split up. Yes. From this could you give us another word for Budi from this from solid? Yeah, so who else so the practice is some say whoever kills the enemy it has proof of it. He has a right to his personal belongings
his personal equipment for example, something along those lines? Because that's what syllabus is different from from the minima and allana.
Yes, yes, exactly. And it may extend like it like I'm saying with with some of the fuqaha and in modern day time, for example, a modern war when an enemy combatant might be in a might be in a vehicle Okay, does the vehicle go to the person who killed him or not? In the same way he's not gonna be riding on a horse today
is more like, like treasures that they that they find like as a whole. Let let like I said booty is just the old fashion.
That I know runner in the minima. Right? That's the spoils of war. So that whole town is conquered for example. Yeah, then everything that's that's inside right gets split in that's even different from unfaith. Right, which is another word is used. I don't know exactly how that's translated, but the alfei is dealing with the what you might get when there's no war, but you just you're able to take over a land.
Fight. Abu Qatada asked around if anyone would testify before the prophets alive some of the he had killed that pagan a man then confessed. He says sadaqa Yasuda Allah, you know, I took his salad. Right? I took it so he says substituted for him with something satisfactory In other words, I don't know if that's the proper translation but in the better way to say he was trying to tell the province it some Yani. Get Abu Qatada did let me let me keep it because I took it you know, you know, make him be happy. Make him be happy with me taking it right. And so I bucket all the data and and interjected and that's when he said lahar Allah. Okay with that above statement, he said loud
Allahu Allah. Yanni layyah medu illa acedemic Oh, Stila you caught you 99 or a superiority kissanime. He says so. And then the message is a lie with sentences soldered on to the statement of Abu Bakar. So the man gave Abu Qatada the personal belongings of the spleen and
four years of stay
tight. There are numerous examples of the style in Arabic. I mean, the whole point the whole point of going through that exercise was to show that Evel Becker rather low tide and who said what Lau will lie, let her lie and he started off with the lead started off with the negation because the statement that he was making is a is a statement of negation. Strong, right? Yeah, it makes it strong, right. There are numerous examples of this style in Arabic poetry. We will skip those lines.
Go down to where it says if we examined the Quranic statements from page 31. It's it's only because the poetry is just reinforcing what we've already covered from quite an incident. Now if we examine the chronic statements, if we examine the Quranic statements that contain both preceded by a negation we find in most of them that the advocate the oath is negated as well. This general rule is not revoked by law saying but that looks to be working
with
that now who not on me in nobuna, boy, daddy.
But no, I swear by the sending of the stars and indeed is surely a great oath. If you could know you could only know indeed is unknowable for Okay, so here, he says, But no, I swear by the setting of the stars.
Is there any negation there?
contrary, on the contrary,
pay, but there's no negation. I'm saying from that from the actual statement, there's, there's not a negation. So So even though cayambe is saying that, even though we've set up this rule that when you see fella or Wallah before a,
before an oath, that what's coming next should be a negation. And there's no negation here. At least that's what it looks like that there's no negation. He says, this does not break the rule, and he's gonna tell us why. And that's because the purpose of this oath, the purpose of this oath is to negate this leap as fallacies regarding the core and yonni their false claims regarding the Koran that it's what poetry right magic or failures of the fables, fables, fables of the past, right? So at the end, Allah Subhana, Allah says, What indeed in the hula Porter anon Kareem. Right, negating their false beliefs that it is a that it is a lie or that it is magic or that it's fables. So the
negation is, is implied in the meaning, even though it's not explicitly written.
That's a loss cantata proceeded the oath with a negation.
This last panel with Allah preceded the oath and negation and then affirm that the truth is contrary to that which they claim Therefore, I yet carry the meaning that But no, it is not as you claim, it is not as you claim, even though that's not there, even though that's not written explicitly, that's the meaning But no, it is not as you claim rather it is a noble Quran. Now.
I'm going to read this part because there's actually a lot of addition here so so just follow up. Michelle says another place the last finds out explicitly mentions both the negation and the affirmation for example, last month, it says for LA OC mobile honus. LG aware il canus. Will lady either ISIS or superheater. Jennifer's in the HU la colada. xuelin Kareem bass that's it. That's what's in Arabic. The translator added, I is 20 through 25.
That's from the Translate that's that's not in the Arabic. So we're going to
if you look in the English where it says But no, I swear by the retrieving stars, those that run their courses and disappear and by the night as it settles or departs by the dawn as it stirs Indeed, this, I need the Koran is surely the words conveyed by a Noble Messenger God, that's it. That's what's in Arabic.
And a loss of how its Adda says lead oppositely on piano without pressing move enough to lower. So we'll insert one layer, and lemenager marathoner, well, I'll call the De nada, and also we have banana But no, I swear by the Day of Resurrection, and I swear by the self reproaching soul of a believer, does the human being think that we will not assemble his bones? Yes, we are surely, we surely are able to even proportion his fingertips. He goes on to say, therefore proceeding an oath with the negation leads to confirming the object of the oath and emphasizing the absence of falsehoods regarding it. So you can go back and just read that part over Danny shala. The point that
he's trying to make here is that the first way that the eye for Allah, Allah will be known is emphasized is is by that first led by that first negation. Alright, second, the rest these are these are short Now further, yes. But I said for that what up because it's like, just keep bringing shake, it's coming right now. Number two, okay.
Number two, using an oath. The second method that Allah uses in the above is and he said 465 to emphasize the obligation of obeying the messenger and the selective listening is the very use of an oath. Right? So just the fact that it was fun Tyler's swearing, that shows that is serious. Okay, tip number three, a lot of ways by himself. The third method of emphasis is that Allah Subhana Allah chooses to swear by himself, and not by any of this creation, which he does on many occasions. Right? So Allah Subhana Allah throughout the Quran, swears by a ship's swears by the common swears by many of his creations will also write.
But when he swears by himself, that's an even greater emphasis. Okay, so that's the third way that it's being emphasized number four, requiring the absence of any resistance. The fourth method of emphasis, the last part of what the Allied requires submission requires submission to the messengers at a selectable slam judgment to an extent that leaves no resistance in the heart.
Yeah, by complete submission, and the fifth method of synthesis isn't repeating the third submit in the abstract form, right so when you sell the more at the very end of the IOU, suddenly mu tests Li man will you suddenly move test Lima. So by mentioning there the verbal noun after I think that's how you say that in English
by mentioning the verbal now after the verb, it's it's a further emphasis, further emphasizing that importance or that the, the importance of obeying the messenger it is Salatu was sinning. This I really is enough.
Honestly, like if a if a person believes that's all you need is this ayah from the poor, I say, Okay, I have to be a follower of the teachings of Mohammed bin Abdullah salatu salam, I have to really train myself not to ever fight and be irritated by those teachings. And I had to submit fully and when submitting fully means that you have to follow right means that you actually have to do something, right. Either avoiding those prohibitions or following his commands.
This is all about what the *'s going on to the Prophet sallallahu Sunnah. It's about using the process as a judge these days. This deal is about making the promise I said I'm a judge, right? This delete the second one, which is what we're going to cover right now. Sharla so Alright, here we go. The second text everybody there on page 34.
Okay, that text as you can see an Arabic from sorbitol aksarben, who live in Nina and Fusarium, the prophet has a higher claim on the believers than they have on themselves. Everybody see that? Yes. Okay, good. I want you now to go to page 43.
You see the iron from sort of the 36th. I was says will Mike Kennedy want me to what I want me to everybody see that?
right on that one, a delille a status.
The third text
the third text
concerning following the practice, all of them are about being a profit and a science was an all of them. every deal is about hedging on to the profit on a slide to Sudan, which as he defined is following his way believing what he says so low and he was
avoiding his prohibitions worshipping Allah Subhana Allah the way that he instructed. Okay, so
everything we're about to cover from pages 34 through 42, even though there's a whole nother chapter that the
that the translator added.
I mean, he, he didn't add the column I'm saying he added the chapter title. Yeah, he separated it. All of that is under the second video. Got it. All right, Mr. Miller.
No order to follow the train of thought of Immanuel Kant Rahim Allah, just look here very quickly at the
at the screen. So on page 34, is introducing the AI is going to mention the AI. And he's going to give us a brief overview of what the aim means. Okay.
Once we get to page 37, he's going to mention another is that next I that he's mentioned, page 37 is not the third deal.
Okay, so the next I is going to mention is actually, to contrast what it looks like to follow one's Hauer as opposed to following the Prophet alayhi salatu salam. And so that's why he's actually bringing it as we'll see. And he's going to go into a discussion of some of the important meanings related to the secondary idea that he's mentioning. So there's somewhat of a digression here, but it's very beneficial. And then on page 42, he's going to go back to the discussion on this idea in the below level minimum and Fusarium the Prophet has a higher claim on the believers than they have on themselves. So once we get back to page 42.
No, actually, he's going to expand on I made a mistake there. He's going to expound on the idea he mentioned on page 37. But anyway, you'll you'll see it shall I just want you to be able to know that it starts here. Then he's going to digress
For a while until he gets back to, to his point, all right, tight
fellowship, the various methods, the various methods, this is applied here, and the great care taken to establish this important matter of submission to the messenger and he was going to end in the people's art only reflect its great significance. The last part of what the Allah says, and the BU oh that I've been meaning to see him, the prophet, and they stood out to us tonight has a higher claim on the believers than they have on themselves. This ayah indicates that anyone does not get more regard to the messenger, and they slept with snap, then to oneself, then that person is not, is not one of the believers, the prophets, this prophets claim on the believers involve the following
two important matters, one dearer than oneself, the messenger, and so that was that should be more more beloved than one's own self. This is so because the prophets claim and they slept with snap on a believer is based upon love. A person normally loves himself more than the others, yet more than others, yeah, the messenger or they slept was that should have more claim on him, and should be dear to him than he is to himself. With this. he acquires the quality of email, and without it, there's you don't you don't reach Amen. The Prophet sallahu wa sallam said one night we know I had to come head to corner happy, man, why did he Why did he win last? Here's why.
You won't believe until I am more beloved to him. Alright?
Then his child, or his children, his parents and all of mankind.
Play? How does that look?
What does it look like? On the prophet Isaiah salatu salam is more beloved to a person than than himself.
When you do something you wouldn't normally do. You're only good because it's been ordered or set by the prophet Mohammed. So there's there's obedience, like you just said, there's obedience, the prophet alayhi salatu was snam taught something. And so you do it, even though initially that's not something you would normally do. Yeah.
We value the opinion of the property.
Your own opinion.
Montez does that the law favor? So when?
When your opinion becomes secondary, even though you might have come to one conclusion and then you found out that no, this is what the prophet alayhi salatu was Salam toi, the European is out the window. And with the Prophet sallahu wa Salaam, because why because you love him more than you love yourself. So you love his teachings, more than you love your rational conclusions,
man. So it's about how you think, and what you believe. And what you do, all of that is indicative of your love, you're loving the Prophet alayhi salatu salam, more than you love yourself, and every single person has hower right? I mean, we all have desires, we all have things that
eventually or when shape plan is whispering or that and the knifes and the amount of a suit, and that knifes, that is you know, trying to get you to do things that you should not be doing.
When you're able to, you know, push those things to the side and give preference to the teachings of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam, then that shows love that shows love, you know, if you if you think about some of the things that you do for people that you love that you would otherwise not do, you would not want to do that for anybody else. But because you love them, you do it for them.
That mean that shows it's going to get you to a hallway, it's going against what you would prefer to do, but you do it, which is most what most parents do for children, things that you would not use. In fact, in fact, and this is this is well known and this is why a lot of marketing targets children
because they know that parents will do for their children what they will not do for themselves. And they will spend on the children in a way that they would not spend on themselves.
And so it's very interesting
that many of us come from poor homes, and we have a mother's we only eat the leftovers that we left.
So Panama right. So when we look at the the
Love that we should have for the Prophet alayhi salatu salam, it is a love beyond. And this is what a promise I'm actually specified that said more than you love what? Your children more than you love your parents and all of mankind. And we'll all model the allowance and I went to the prophet Isaiah Salatu was sitting and he said y'all sort of luck and to help we lay min Cooley in the NFC. And you are more beloved to me than everybody except for myself. The prophesies I'm saying, No,
that's not it.
Not until I am more beloved to you than yourself.
And then I'm one of the alongside and who said to him, You are more beloved to me than myself immediately because what because once he found out that that was what was required of him, will you suddenly motors Mima fully submit? It wasn't even a there wasn't even a back and forth. He said on any hour. Now. Now, man, that's that's what a true belief is panela. Recognizing the prophesized synonyms claim on oneself and loving him truly results in all of the true consequences of love, such as full compliance and obedience, satisfaction with his judgment, submission to his commands, you see how that all plays into what what was an AI? What? full compliance and obedience, satisfaction
with the judgment and content, submission to his commands, where you suddenly notice Lehman, right and favoring him above anyone else. This is important, is is important. Very, very important because you can't have hydrilla, to the prophet Isaiah Salatu was set in until he is as Allah Subhana. Allah says, Oh Allah, and the BU own lab, meaning men emphasize him, he has more of a right to the believers than they then themselves right, or a higher claim on the believers that they have on themselves. If this is the case, then what about people who put their own intellect not even the intellect of great scholars, their own intellects over the statements of the prophet Isaiah Salatu
was today.
And this is very common today too. And we had to be very, very careful, super careful that the liberalization of Islam, we live in a pluralistic society. And so there are a lot of people who just want to make Islam okay.
Not easy being, as I think many of us we take for granted, the Philadelphia experience. This is not normal.
Our experience here as Muslims in America, this is not Islam in America, this is lamb in Philadelphia,
very different. In fact, just go 45 minutes West,
in dress like you do in Philadelphia and do what you do in Philadelphia and see how it feels.
It's not the same. It's not the same. So I'm not that's not an excuse. But what I'm saying is, we have to understand that there are people who they love to slam, I mean, you know, they want to be but it's difficult for them. It's difficult for them to practice Islam. And so they look for ways to try to make it easier. Right? eventually what happens is over time, it's similar to how what happened with the people afternoon I didn't say
well, you know it started out one way let's just let's kind of make these statues to honor you know, these these great people. And then people came after and they saw them doing it a certain way and when they were cleaning them they would think oh maybe they wiping them for Baraka or whatever and then they worship them yeah generation after generation after generation. So that that idea of making Islam Islam is easy in the first place. And we make it complicated sometimes. But a dino use the promise I saw him say a dean user, Dean is easy.
But the reality is is that when we go and now we try to interrupt reinterpret things to cancel out I had the my and then the new way. mocassin is shittier everything is about the objectives of the shitty I yeah, we know the Prophet said this, but the objectives of the shittier Yeah. How if the profit setting, then that is the objective that is shittier and you can't come with something else, you know, and try to philosophize it out of Islam. So narrowly now. So, so the the important thing here again, is that when we
When we look at the society that we live in,
a lot of people will put their intellects over the teachings of the Prophet alayhi salatu was sent in, you know, and some of it is with good intention but good intention does not make things acceptable to a loss of habitat and good intentions between that person and Allah Subhana Allah but that doesn't mean you it's okay for you to follow, especially, when you can see that it is plain error.
I realize how quickly the Can we just finished this page off with Sharma
the ruler of oneself, yes, a person should not have an independent rule over himself or herself. This authority is the right of the messenger
his rule of law when he was selling his superior to a Masters rule over his slave or father's rule over his child, thus a person has no right of disposal opened himself except in accordance with that which the messenger or they selected was snap disposes says talks about where he saw a lot of this has more claim on him than him. So when we say that the promise I sell them is oh lab bill money, right he has more right higher claim on the believers than it encompasses these two meanings number one, that the message is high Sanam is is dearer to the believer than anyone else. And number two, that the Prophet alayhi salatu was Sadam has the last say, when it comes to rulings, that a person
does not have any independent rule over himself.
How then could such closeness How then could such a closeness to the messenger and so that was snam be attained by a person who isolates the messengers message from the position of authority over his own self and his own life? A person who is more satisfied and pleased with someone else's judgment than that which is with the messengers whacked? Absolutely.
A person who claims that the guidance is not to be sought from him, at least not whatsoever, but from the dictates of the mind and who claims that the messengers message does not offer circuited. These and other similar views reflect deviation in the prophets of Allah when he was sent us and this message and substitution of the beneficial knowledge, but that which is inferior to it? This indeed is clear Miss guidance, there is no way of establishing the currency. And in other words, how can those people who totally disregard the Sunnah of the Prophet it is Salatu was set out?
And they go again, like this whole mocassin wave, you know, everything is about the objective of the shittier even and that is a that's real, the Sharia has objectives without a doubt, but I'm saying that the way that some people are using it to cancel out text, that is not that is not okay. And again, how can a person actually come under this understanding of the prophesized son of being Oh led to having more of a right and more of a claim? If they just thrown away the teachings of the Prophet it is Salatu was Sudan and putting other people's statements above the teachings of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam. Now, there is no way of establishing the closeness to the messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam except by isolating oneself from all but him and he was following him in everything and checking that which anyone else says against his and he slept with slimes guidance, if the messengers will allow testimony supports it, it is accepted and invalidated invalidates it, it is rejected. And it is unclear whether the prophets of Allah when they presented his testimony is for or against it is treated as the talk of the people of this scripture, and no decision is made concerning it until it becomes clear to which of the two judgments is nearest I like to privacy so I'm saying hello vegan, while haraam obion or vino mal Warren wish to be hacked Hello Alice clear
and harm is clear. And between that there's gray areas. So layer level one McCarthy on unnecessary many people don't know not everybody doesn't know, but many people don't know. And so until it becomes clear, then you just leave it like the speech of the people of the book, which is that we don't affirm it or deny it until we have clear evidence that it should be affirmed or denied. Yeah.
All been on our one on one, or been on one and we'll still be here.
For many, many top a shoe I forgot to stop
I need the dean here. Wherever the nanny whoever avoids the shoe wet and those gray areas, then he has protected his religion and his honor.
Yeah
that's it. It's your last sentence class we're done.
Understanding his journey of his
will be straightforward. His knowledge and actions will be upright and the people will Aspire after him every direction.
