			Hello, Sally, Kareem I'm about feroza Billahi min ash shaytani r rajim Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim
rubbish trochlea sadri were silly emri washlet doesn't release any of Coco de probenecid in our in
the book of knowledge what is
		

			what is
		

			knowledge? Okay what is knowledge? knowledge of the deen okay. If somebody asks you what is this
alien for him that you keep saying and they ask you what is knowledge? For example, if a child asks
you what are you going to tell them? How would you explain it to know about something in draka shape
to perceive something to know the reality of something beneficial information to be aware to come
out of the state of ignorance okay to know something and then act upon what you know as well
		

			and are in is the opposite of jell o it is the opposite of ignorance. So, it is to know something as
it is to know something as it is to have the correct information about something to know about its
reality. And it is to have the absolute to have the certain to have the actual information about
something to have the actual certain absolute information about something and remember that whenever
it is mentioned in the Quran and Sunnah, like over here, it is dedicating an entire Kitab of his
book do keytab l l. l l raylan then refers to his machinery. It refers to religious knowledge,
because there are many, many types of Islam out there. However, whenever Islam is praised in the
		

			Quran and Sunnah, whenever it's excellent it is mentioned whenever it's rewarded as mentioned, which
kind of knowledge is it? It is the knowledge of the shittier it is there even of what Allah soprano
data has revealed on his messenger of big net of houda. So, in other words, it is why it is a
knowledge of Revelation. It is the knowledge of the fifth the understanding of the book of Allah
subhanaw taala and the Sunnah of His Messenger sallallahu alayhi wasallam. When ilorin is mentioned,
it refers to shudder in and not worldly knowledge. It does not refer to the knowledge of worldly
matters. Why? Because we see that the Prophet sallallahu Sallam he said that may unity level be
		

			higher on you factory who feed Dean, he gives him the understanding of the religion. seminary from
another hobbies we learned that inner lemma was a tool that the scholars are the heirs of the
profits were in lnbf la mujer de su de nada Villa del Herman and the profits, they don't leave
behind dinar and Dirham money, but we're in them our salary, but rather the leave behind knowledge
from an affordable, affordable housing worth it. So whatever the messengers brought whatever
knowledge the messengers brought, that is an island, and that is what is mentioned over here. And we
see that the knowledge that the messengers are allowed to send abroad, which knowledge is that of
		

			the Sharia. And we see that when the Prophet sallallahu Sallam came to Medina, he saw the people
farming in a particular way, planting their dead bombs in a particular way. And he advised them to
do it differently. And when they followed his advice, and the result was not that great. They asked
him that what happens to the profits on a lot is and I'm told them, that anthem or Alamo, B should
only do that you are most knowing of the matters of your dounia if in refer to the worldly knowledge
that the Prophet sallallahu Sallam would be the most knowledgeable of worldly matters. Because the
one who is praised most for his knowledge for his armor is who the prophets are allowed to center.
		

			And if the virtuous knowledge was the one of dunya, then the Prophet sallallahu Sallam would have
the most of it. He would be the one who is most knowledgeable. But he said entomol mo, B should only
donica. So what about the rest of the knowledge? Like for example, of math, of science, of computers
of medicine, of you know, psychology, you can say technology. What about all of this knowledge? Is
that a waste? Does that have no benefit in our religion? It has no position our religion, many
scholars, what they have said is that learning about worldly matters, this is faulty fire. What is
it, it's a faulty fire, what is fire, it is an obligation that lies on who the entire community so
		

			even if a few individuals do it, it is sufficient. So it is an obligation then, isn't it? It is an
obligation it is necessary that
		

			We have doctors that we have, you know, pediatricians that we have scientists that we have
psychologists, we have different different types of people why because that knowledge is important.
It is such on which the livelihood of people depends on, if we have no farmers, we have no
designers, what are we going to eat, what are we going to wear, where are we going to live? You
understand. So that knowledge is also important, but remember, that worldly knowledge is like it was
sealer, it is a means it is a means a means to either hide, or a means to shove. It is something
that either leads to good, or it is something that leads to evil. So for example, if the knowledge
		

			of worldly matters is a means to fulfill some religious obligation to fulfill some religious duty,
		

			or, for example, it is of benefit to people, then it is considered as a means to hide. And it is a
virtuous act, if a person gains knowledge of for example, medicine, and he's helping people. And
when people are ill, he helps them, he tells them what to eat, what not to eat. This is what in a
way, he's helping them perform their religious obligation, because the last panel data has commanded
us to take care of ourselves, our bodies are an Amana on us, we have been told to eat that salad and
pay you. So if there are people who are facilitating that, their knowledge is a means to what cave,
therefore, that knowledge is what gaining that knowledge practicing on that what is it it is all an
		

			act of worship, you understand, that is what an act of worship. However, we cannot say that that is
equal to an offshore era, there is no Sharia is always higher. There in of dunya, when it's
beneficial, it is just an act of worship, which means that all of the effort that is put into it,
everything that is put into it, it is a means of gaining reward. inshallah, if the intention is
correct, as we learned earlier, that a person also has his back, that he expects reward from Allah,
if the worldly knowledge that a person is learning if it is harmful, if it is harmful, then what? Is
it a means of reward?
		

			No. Can a person learn that knowledge? No, you're not allowed to learn that knowledge, even if it is
harmful, if it's going to harm people, if it's going to harm the world, if it's going to harm the
creation, if it's going to harm ourselves. Can you think of something? For example, music, people go
to college to learn to study to practice, they get training, they spend hours practicing. So it is
something that is harmful. Why because it is harmful for the Dean of people. Allah subhanaw taala is
forbidden that so learning that knowledge is what wrong, it is incorrect. You see, the army? Do you
think that's not necessary for the defense of a country? for the protection of a country? Not on
		

			which country? I'm just saying in general? Isn't it necessary? It is. So if a person goes into that,
and obviously it is correct, meaning he goes in the right one, there's no harm. Thirdly, if the
knowledge that a person is learning is neither beneficial nor harmful, it doesn't really benefit
people doesn't even harm them something that you enjoy doing, then it is low.
		

			It is in our tool worked well. Man, it is a waste of time. And well. What kind of knowledge falls
into poetry? We have learned about poetry in the Quran as well into the shadow and what did we
learn? Is all poetry useless? No, there is poetry that is good. So for example, if you learned
poetry or good English writing or good expression, in school, in university in college, do you think
that was a waste? No, it has given you the ability to express yourself in a much better way. And if
you use it for the deen, if you use it to help people, it is beneficial. But if you're just
obsessing with it, there is no benefit in it. Like for example, people just like to memorize poetry.
		

			It's not that much of a culture. And it's not that common in our culture. However, in many other
countries, and many of us where we originally come from, people love to memorize poetry versus a boy
tree and the court versus a butcher like anything. Sometimes you're beneficial. But other times it's
a little too much.
		

			Like I remember I saw one person they had a notebook in which they had written so many verses of
poetry. And whenever they would have a conversation, she would look it up and you know, look for
something that she could say just to amuse people just to have fun. Okay, a little bit is okay, but
way too much is kind of a waste. Any other knowledge that could come into this, any other study?
Like for example, a person goes to study just for the sake of studying. Like, for example, you ask
people during college, nobody's studying? I don't know. Not sure. Okay. After two months, after two
years, what are you doing? I don't know. I'm just completing degree for the sake of completing the
		

			degree. It happens that initially a person doesn't know what
		

			Do so they're figuring out should I study they should study that. However, by the end of school, at
least you should know what you're doing. And if a person is just in school for the sake of being in
school, then they're learning something that they're not going to use to benefit nor harm, then this
is a waste, it's a waste of time, it's a waste of money, and it is low, it is low. It's not useful
at all, it's not a purposeful action at all. So when it comes to in when it comes to knowledge, any
kind of information that we're taking in, whether it is at school, or it is from the television, or
it is something that we're reading on the internet, or it is something that we're reading in a book,
		

			always have your filters on.
		

			What am I going to do with this knowledge? Is it going to benefit me? Is it going to be useful? Am I
going to become better and are going to become worse? In a way it is therapeutic, it is beneficial,
it is helping a person in some way or the other. However, we see that anything that is that a person
learns even if it's art, for example, even if it is, you know, henna designs or anything like that,
anything you do, there should be a purpose behind it. You see a believer, he should strive to make
every act, an act of worship, every act that would bring him reward. So you're learning art good,
but don't spend hours and hours and years and years on that. also learn other things where a person
		

			is spending a lot of time for example, painting because they feel that this is like it's healing,
you know, it helps them It helps them express themselves. It helps them to, you know, think
properly, it really relaxes them, it's therapeutic, good, but they should also use the Quran as a
therapy. You understand they should also use the knowledge of the Quran and Sunnah to heal them
healing a loss of hanadarko calls the Quran a healing Shiva, Lima sudduth. So, other ways should be
adopted. However, within a limit, okay, and we should not ignore the main or in the actual the real.
We should not ignore that, that whatever we are learning ask, am I benefiting myself? Am I
		

			benefiting other people? Am I coming closer to Allah subhanaw taala to this? Or is it just something
that's going to be a burden, this is going to stay behind that something that I'm going to forget in
a year or two. And that's it. If your concern is going to university and studying worldly knowledge
I mentioned to you earlier in refers to shutter e knowledge. However, learning something of the
dunya that could benefit you that could benefit other people that could benefit the deen that could
help you come closer to Allah subhanaw taala than that is beneficial. But if it's other stuff that
you're learning, that's not really benefiting you other people in any way, then don't waste your
		

			time. Don't waste your time study something that will actually benefit you. And remember that every
skill that you have every ability that you have, if it's beneficial, if it's useful, you can use it
for the deen as well, isn't it? Like for example, if a person is very good at art, don't you think
we need people with a good sense of art, you know, to make Islamic material to promote Islamic
material? Of course. similarity don't we need people to design good Islamic websites? Yes, to make
good Islamic videos? Of course. Of course we do. So any skill that you have use it for what? For the
deen so that that entire process also becomes an act of worship? It doesn't go waste. However, the
		

			main reason that is praiseworthy in our religion is which one, even off the shittier of Allah
soprano. There is machinery. And over here, and when Bahati the first chapter, the first Bab in this
keytab is Bab a folk Lin in the chapter of the excellence of knowledge. As I mentioned to you the
knowledge which is virtuous that has fuddle in our Deen the knowledge that we are encouraged to
learn is the knowledge of the Sharia of Allah subhanaw taala it is not the knowledge of the dunya
Allah subhanaw taala has praised this knowledge, Allah subhanaw taala has praised the people who
have this knowledge. And Allah has encouraged the servants to gain this knowledge as well and to
		

			also benefit from it. And we see that in gaining knowledge is one of the most virtuous acts of our
reading. It is in fact an act of worship as well. It's an animal sila, and it's also an act of
rebellion. Obviously by that is that the word voluntary? And we see that learning knowledge This is
a part of this is a kind of jihad v civitella. struggling in the way of Allah soprano Darla, if you
think about it, the deen How is it preserved? How is it established by the study of the Quran. We
		

			See the deen of Allah subhanaw taala is established it is preserved in two ways. First of all
through in and secondly through coda, but primarily it is what lol knowledge and that is to be given
preference precedence over pita even we see that whenever the Prophet sallallahu Sallam In fact, he
did not fight any people unless and until it was conveyed to them. So, what is primary reason and
what a secondary data that is secondary if you think about it today, a lot of Muslims are saying you
know, we should all get together and we should defend ourselves and we should fight together. Okay
Dream on, what you need to do is gain knowledge and pass on that knowledge. That is the first step.
		

			The Prophet sallallahu Sallam for 30 years in Morocco, what was happening in Medina also what was
happening, and eventually the time for Pataki, that is a later thing. It's a secondary thing. The
primary responsibility in us is what to gain freedom and spread that around as well. So it always
takes precedence over that.
		

			Over here on Bahati, he mentions we'll call Li tala and the statement of Allah subhanaw taala. young
fella who love you libido. Mr. Newman come, Allah raises who those people who have believed among
you. Well, Lavina Uttar Elma and also those people who have been given knowledge, Allah raises those
people in what intelligent in in ranks meaning Allah elevates the ranks exalts them in their ranks,
will love will be met that Madonna Javi and Allah is fully aware of whatever you do, will call Leah
xojo. And his statement, the Exalted the mighty are busy the near Alma, oh my lord, increase me in
knowledge. There are many texts of the Quran and Sunnah that tell us about the excellence of
		

			knowledge, the virtue of knowledge. However, Mr. Bahati mentioned only two over here. What are they?
That first of all, it is a means of the project. And secondly, you can never have enough of it. It
is a means of the project and secondly, you can never have enough of it. You're very low ladina
ameron Kamala Deena, Audrina Dora, Jett and secondly are busy near Anima. And who is being commanded
over here to make the Serato business about the Prophet sallallahu Sallam if he was told to pray for
more knowledge, what about us? We can never ever have enough of it.
		

			inshallah, we will continue the study of this chapter in our next session. So Chronicle long will be
