			alameen wa sallahu wa sallam Obama Kala Nabina Muhammad Juana and he was happy
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:28
			to meet him about today Wednesday, the 25th of the hijab 1434 corresponding to the 30th of October
2013. We commence with the third lesson of the book. Essential lessons for every Muslim by Sheikh
Abdullah Abdullah Abdullah Rahim Allah tala
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:37
			manana meanwhile shadow none alone you saw the hainaut shadow under Mohammed and aldora pseudo
solomani you
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44
			we are in the third lesson of
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			important lessons by
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:54
			and we are still on the first lesson which the man
		
00:00:55 --> 00:01:02
			mentioned that everyone every Muslim should learn sorta tel Fatiha and then the Searles from
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:08
			Allah until an S and we've talked about it and
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:21
			today we are going to continue with a brief explanation of these sewer or these sores and their
major themes. Now we'll sort of
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:34
			by the racers panting and the producers of sparks one striking and the chargers and the Chargers at
dawn
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:53
			staring up there by clouds of dust arriving thereby in the center collectively do not stop there.
Let's go over these first five is from the client. These are the sources that you hear recited many
times in the salon All right, because these are known as what they call
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:55
			the short
		
00:02:56 --> 00:03:00
			at the end of the Koran or towards the end of the Quran.
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:23
			They call them because the eyes are usually short, they usually short bias so they're not like the
longer irons and we need to understand them because because for the most part many of the Muslims is
the first part of the grind that they memorize. Most people start from solo Xs okay and then they
memorize diamond and whatever else is easy for them of the Quran.
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:28
			So you hear this a lot in the salon well idea t lava hat.
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:34
			What is this talking about? And what is Eliza was
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:38
			intended for us to understand from these is
		
00:03:40 --> 00:04:05
			Joe here is taking an oath by the horses and horses with the Arabs were preferred over any other
animal when it came to battle. When it came to battle. The horses were what they chose because the
horses are fast and they're strong and they're obedient, obedient to the one that is riding getting
caring for it. So he
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:16
			says here with the idea to bother. He's talking about the horses that are galloping, and they're
breathing heavy, okay.
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:27
			They had the strikes or the sparks that result is as they as they are trotting and they are
galloping. Okay.
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:34
			All right, and they are attacking in the morning time, what does it say?
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:46
			in English and the Chargers at dawn, okay. So that is that they are that they are attacking, they're
going to charge this place
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:48
			in the morning time at dawn.
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:59
			And as they're riding and galloping through and they are then the what happens, the dust begins to
rise. Okay, so you get the
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:03
			picture, you get this picture of a battle scene,
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:09
			you get this picture of a battle scene with the dust coming up, and the horses going forward.
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:19
			A horse. Like most other animals, most animals have a type of intuition they can feel when dangers
around.
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:43
			You know that from when, for example, if you just walk out the house, you see a cat, the cat
automatically freezes, it looks you up and down, it's trying to assess is this person going to be a
cause of danger or not? So animals, they, they have this type of intuition. They know when there's
danger. And these horses, these horses, they know that they are heading towards a dangerous
situation.
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			But that doesn't stop them from going straight down the middle.
		
00:05:55 --> 00:06:24
			In the middle, so they go right to the battlefield, wherever it is that they are charging, and
they're attacking and they're putting themselves in harm's way. Alright, so Allah Subhana data here
is taking an oath, anytime, anytime a person takes an oath, okay, there's the one that is making the
oath. There's the thing that they are taking the oath by. And then there's the object of that. So
for example, someone says, I swear by Allah,
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:27
			that tonight I prayed a lot to the mother and the prophets message.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:32
			All right, so that person is swearing By whom?
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:38
			About what what is the object of them swearing?
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:44
			They want to they want to enforce something. And that is that they pray Muslim in the province of
light it was someone's
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:52
			swearing by these horses, he swears by these horses.
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:57
			About what about what read the sixth?
		
00:06:58 --> 00:07:04
			Indeed 767 and eight, indeed mankind to his Lord is ungrateful.
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:17
			So he's swearing that mankind is ungrateful and and indeed he is to that a witness Yani, that is
mankind witnesses himself, that he is ungrateful.
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:43
			And indeed, he is in love of wealth intense, his his love for wealth is intense. So a lot of data is
swearing about these three things. This is the object of the oath, that man is ungrateful, and that
he himself is a witness to the fact that he is ungrateful. And that one, that his love for wealth is
intense. What is the relationship
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:45
			between
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:49
			his swearing by
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:57
			swearing about I want you to just ask yourself that question right now. Because this is going to
come this is repetitive in
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:00
			the next time we're going to cover this
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:03
			is when we get to
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:07
			swearing by the time
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:19
			that mankind is in a state of loss. So what is the relationship you always when looking at the
Quran? You want to know what is the relationship between these
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:23
			so what is the relationship between
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:26
			these horses
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:42
			that are going to war that have been prepared for war, and the fact that mankind is ungrateful, and
mankind witnesses that himself, and that he is in his love for for wealth and money is intense.
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:47
			Here, here, the horse
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:50
			is obedient
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:52
			to his master,
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:59
			even though he knows that his masters taking him to a situation that is dangerous.
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:01
			He's still loyal.
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:25
			And he's obedient. Because his, his owner, his owner, fed him and gave him drink and provided for
him a place to shelter them from the sun, when it was hot and sheltered him from the cold. When it
was cold outside, he trained them and he cared for him. And so as a result of that he has a degree
of loyalty
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:27
			to his owner.
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:42
			And he's grateful to his owner, to the point that even when he knows that he's going into a
dangerous situation, he goes out of loyalty to his owner.
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:45
			As for mankind,
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:51
			looking at the relationship between mankind and Allah subhana wa Tada.
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:59
			Insane man when it comes
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:01
			to his Lord
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:21
			means not just someone who was ungrateful, or someone who always talks about the hardships that they
have, or their calamities, and they are totally neglectful of the blessings of Allah acknowledge the
blessings of Allah.
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:29
			The exact opposite, the exact opposite of the horse, with its own
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:43
			mankind with his owner, Allah subhana wa tada who does a lot more than just provide with food and
shelter provides mankind with every type of niche that is imaginable.
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:46
			When you look at a horse,
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:48
			man,
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:54
			the horses owner give him the ability to see that he gives them the ability to run.
		
00:10:56 --> 00:11:05
			So even that ownership is not independent of the fact that Eliza Dell is the true master and the
true owner of that of that animal. But as for mankind
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:09
			data was given him everything
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:14
			commanding mankind to do
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:17
			calf
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:22
			to Islam in totality pray Abdullah gives the cat
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:35
			he acts like the money that he has is from his own hands like something he did very special that
allies who just didn't give him the ability to do so now when it's time to pay the cat he doesn't
want to he's
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:39
			busy with something else.
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:46
			busy with work, busy with collecting money, busy watching TV busy, busy, too busy.
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:53
			Maybe 20 years, 30 years or whatever.
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:07
			Not to mention, those who have not even entered the fold of Islam and look at their lack of
gratitude towards the one who created them.
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:12
			paints this picture for us
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:43
			of this dangerous situation and the dust flying and the horses going there because of the loyalty
lies with them. put us in a dangerous situation absolutely not everything that Allah subhana wa tada
has instructed us to do is because it is for our own good is for our own good. And so Allah
subhanahu wa tada swears by the horses. The characteristics that have already proceeded to
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:46
			remind us
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:52
			the way that we are supposed to behave with our Lord subhanho wa Taala read the last three.
		
00:12:56 --> 00:13:16
			But does he not know that one the contents of the graves are scattered and that within the *
is obtained. D Lord with them. That day is full fully acquainted. So here Allah subhana wa tada
says, that even though this is the state of mankind, and that they are ungrateful and full of love
for their wealth,
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:22
			intense love for the world to the point that takes them away from the remembrance of Allah.
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:30
			Allah here is reminding mankind that they will be taken out of the grave,
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:43
			and then everything that is in their chest, Allah subhana wa Taala is fully acquainted, not just
that he knows because there's a difference between
		
00:13:45 --> 00:14:07
			an alphabet. Aleem is the one who knows everything. And Kabir is the one who is acquainted even with
the most precise of affairs. That goes back to the difference between elements in the Arabic
language but anyway, the point is that Allah subhana wa tada here is informing mankind that he knows
everything about them, and he's fully acquainted with everything that is in their chest.
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:10
			So he reminds me
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:12
			to fear him
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:28
			and not allow that intense love that one has for won't forget the duty that they owe to Allah
subhanho wa Taala because even even mankind's ability to strive for wealth
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:33
			is due to something that data has given them in the first place.
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:51
			gave that person the ability to strive for whatever it is that he's striving for. So don't allow
that to make you forget your duty to Allah subhana wa tada and forget the hereafter. And notice that
here, lots of what Allah mentions. He mentions that
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:56
			he is the one who is well acquainted with man's actions.
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:59
			This sort of idea
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:00
			comes after
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:21
			who was saying we'll see, see the actions. Each and every person himself will see his own action. He
will be the one. If there's any good that he's done, he'll see if there's any evil, even an evil
that he's done, he'll see it and hear
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:28
			that he, he is the one that is well acquainted with the DEA. So, everything that you see
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:36
			even more acquainted with those laws even more acquainted with those these likewise, likewise a
person
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:47
			data is talking about seeing the beat. So maybe a person begins to think that it is
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:57
			even acquainted with what is in the chest, Gani those actions of the heart.
		
00:15:58 --> 00:16:30
			So we see how these two photos intertwine and complement one another when it comes to these actions
and that Allah subhana wa tada is fully aware of man's inner and outer beats both that which is
apparent and that which is hidden from his deeds. And I forgot to mention that pseudo dx is 40 words
and 163 letters, 40 words and 163 letters without any difference amongst the scholars. So the major
theme
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:33
			dx is
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:38
			the ungrateful nature of man. When it comes to
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:42
			loyalty to
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:53
			me anyway, these type of meetings so when you hear IDs, think about that connection. Think about
that connection between those horses and mankind.
