Taimiyyah Zubair – Fahm Al-Quran – 04C Al Imran 118 155

			All you who have believed, do not take as intimate, close friends, those other than yourselves, for
they will not spare you any ruin. They wish you would have hardship. They love you to suffer,
meaning those who don't have email, they don't want the best for you. They love to see you suffer.
Hatred has already appeared from their mounts. Think about what they say to you, you still consider
these people to be friends, and what their hearts conceal is greater. We have certainly made clear
to you the signs, if you will use reason. This does not mean that all disbelievers are the same. But
we see that those people who do express verbally their hatred for Islam, then it is clear that these
		

			people are not your sincere friends. So don't be deceived by them. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam at one occasion he said, Behold, the children of my father's he was referring to a particular
group of people who were related to him by blood. And so and so they are not my friends. Why?
Because they were disbelievers. They rejected the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam they rejected
the Quran. The Prophet sallallahu Sallam said, Verily, Allah, and the pious believers are my
friends. The Prophet sallallahu Sallam also said, associate only with a believer, associate with who
only with a believer, because Allah omarama have been close, intimate friendship should be with who
		

			those with a man, this doesn't mean that we're not in good terms with those who, with non Muslims.
No, we interact with them, we speak nicely with them. But if someone shows hatred to us, then let's
not be fooled and think that they are our best friends know, if someone clearly, openly verbalizes
their hatred for us, then realize that those people are not sincere to you. Here you are loving
them, but they're not loving you. They don't love you. While you believe in the Scripture. All of
it, you believe in the color you believe in the MGM still they don't love you. And when they meet
you, they say we believe, but when they're alone, they bite their fingertips at you in rage, they
		

			hate you that much say die in your rage. Indeed, Allah is Knowing of that which is within the heart,
which is within the *. If God touches you, it distresses them.
		

			If you succeed in any way, in this world, what happens they become worried. But if harm strikes you
they rejoice at it. And this is something that is hurtful, right? That if you receive something
good, somebody becomes upset. And if you suffer, they become happy. This is something very hurtful.
So how to deal with these people, how to deal with the situation how Allah says we're in the
hospital with a taco bukom cadeaux home shy. And if you are patient and you fear alone, meaning when
you respond to them, Fear Allah, be patient at that time, then their plot will not harm you at all.
In fact, this very opposition will be a means of growth for you.
		

			It will be a means of going further for you. This is something that will cause you to grow and
succeed. Look at the life of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, so many people hated him. So
many people waged war against him. So many people came to kill him. But what happened with each
problem with each test the prophets that a lot of them observed Southern and Cuckoo. And what
happened, those very problems led the prophets of Allah sent him to victory. Those people who came
in their head against the Prophet sallallahu sallam, Allah gave victory to this messenger over them
and like this, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam won the hearts of so many people. And Islam was
		

			established in his lifetime. Indeed, Allah is encompassing of what they do. So what do we learn?
Anytime we come across a person who shows hate to us, or we feel like they're not sincere to us,
don't be sad. Rather, have sub have the core, do what you have to do, and realize that this test is
for the reason of growth. In sha Allah, Allah will improve your condition. Through this test, it
seems to be destruction, but it is through this destruction. You know, like when a seed is planted,
it's buried, but then what happens? The seed, the outer covering, it completely erupts, it, it
completely, it's destroyed, the seed is destroyed, but then what comes out from a seed? What comes
		

			out from a seed a plant. So it is through the process of destruction, that growth happens. It is
through trials, that Allah gives us success. It is through difficulties that Allah makes us go on
the path of success.
		

			And indeed, Allah is encompassing of whatever they do, so don't worry.
		

			Now the following verses are about the Battle of
		

			Allah says And remember, when you meaning a prophet sallallahu Sallam remember when you left your
family in the morning to post the believers at their stations for the battle, the province of London
was commanding the army himself. And Allah is hearing and knowing when two parties among you were
about to lose courage, because what happened that the love and obey who was a hypocrite, he went out
with the Prophet sallallahu Sallam for this battle. But then he took 300 people with him back to
Medina, he left the Muslims, Allah says, Let the for Roku, and that's exactly what are the loving
obey? Did he separated from the Muslims? Why? Because he said, You didn't listen to me. You didn't
		

			agree with me? I'm not coming along with you. So what happened? When he went back with 300 people
there were some Muslims in the Muslim army who felt very discouraged. And they also thought about
going with our beloved obey, because they thought Oh, the number of Muslims has reduced and if it
has reduced, certainly we're going to lose. So they thought, let us go back. But what happened?
Allah says, But Allah was their ally, Allah was their friend, he gave them strength to remain there.
So what do we learn? If there is a man in the hearts and a person makes the right intention and he
seeks the help of Allah, then Allah will plant his feet firmly. But if there is hypocrisy in the
		

			heart, then what will happen? One wind one gust of wind will blow him away, while Allahu folia toa
Kalyan Menon and upon Allah the believers should rely, don't rely on your numbers, but rely upon a
law and already had a law given you victory at the Battle of button. While you were few in number
than fear Allah, perhaps you will be grateful at the Battle of whether we learned that the Messenger
of Allah sallallahu Sallam went out along with 315 companions only. Only 315 and the Prophet
sallallahu sallam, when he saw the number of the arm of the enemy 1000 much better equipped because
the 300 Sahaba had left they had not gone out of Medina to fight a battle. They were basically going
		

			to just fight 20 people or so because they were just going to go attack a caravan. But what happened
an entire army showed up equipped with weapons. So the Prophet sallallahu sallam, he said a lahoma
in the home whoa Fatone family home Allahumma in the home rotten Fox to home a lahoma in the home
Jia on their home. Oh Allah. These people are on foot, provide mount for them. Oh Allah. They're
unclothed they're unequipped. So close them, Oh Allah, they're hungry, provide food for them. And
the Sahaba said a lot and bestowed victory on the Muslims. They returned when they were closed.
There was no man of them, but he returned with one or two camels, they were clothed, and they eat to
		

			their fill. This is a hadith. So he had these in a Buddha would say when a person goes in the way of
Allah, even if he has limited capacity, limited strength, but whatever he has, he's giving it. Why?
Because lanthanum will Villa hatherton, fecal matter hibou then what will happen Allah will grant
him strength, Allah will grant him victory. We learned that at the Battle of hyper, the Muslims left
and earlier the Allahu anhu he could not go because his eyes were hurting. He had some disease in
his eye, his eyes were hurting, he could not participate in the battle. So the Muslims left. But
then he thought to himself, what am I going to do here? I should just get up and go, Allah will take
		

			care of my eyes. What's the point of sitting at home with eyes that are hurting? So he got up and he
went, he joined the Muslims and the Prophet sallallahu Sallam one night he said when the Muslims
were not able to conquer a particular fortress, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam said tomorrow morning,
I'm going to give this flag to the person who loves Allah, and Allah loves him. So all night long
does have a we're wondering, perhaps it's going to be me, perhaps it's going to be me. And what
happened? The next morning everybody's coming, and I do the low bar and who did not come he was
resting. And the Prophet sallallahu Sallam asked Where is early, so they brought him and when he
		

			came, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam gave him the flag. And the Prophet sallallahu Sallam applied his
saliva in his eyes and made the owl for him and his eyes were cured. And earlier of the lower arm
who fought like a giant that day and he conquered that fortress. When you go with whatever you have,
even with, with eyes that are hurting. When you go in the way of Allah, you fast you pray, even
though you're tired, even though you're feeling exhausted, but you do when you are giving whatever
little strength you have left for the sake of Allah, Allah will put Baraka, Allah will give the
energy Allah will grant you success. Remember, when you
		

			To the believers, is it not sufficient for you that your Lord should reinforce you with 3000 angels
sent down? The thing is that the work of Allah is so great that we cannot do it just with our own
ability. We need help. We need a lot of help. So anytime we feel that we are not able to do it
ourselves, and certainly we will feel that we feel weak, we feel tired. Who is it that we need to
call upon Allah subhanho wa Taala we need to ask him for strength. Yes, if you remain patient and
conscious of Allah, and the enemy comes upon you, attacking you in rage, your Lord will reinforce
you with 5000 angels having marks of distinction, the prophets, a lot of them said 3000 angels can
		

			come, Allah said I will send 5000 angels I will give you more help, then you can even imagine, then
you can even expect and Allah made it not accept as a sign of good tidings for you and to reassure
your hearts thereby and victory is not except from Allah, the Exalted in Might the wise that he
might cut down a section of the disbelievers or suppress them so that they may turn back
disappointed, not for you or profit, but for Allah is the decision whether he should cut them down
or forgive them or punish them for indeed they are wrongdoers, when the profits on a lot of them got
wounded at the back of our head. He said that how will these people be guided when they have done
		

			this to their messenger?
		

			So Allah revealed this ayah that No, you cannot pass judgment on any servant of Allah, even if he
comes fighting you. You cannot say that he will not be guided. Why? Because this decision lies only
when Allah it was Khalid bin Walid, a club in Abuja, who gathered up the army of the disbelievers
after they had fled and attack the Muslims again surprised and attacked them. And that is what led
to the loss, the huge loss that the Muslim suffered at the Battle of world. But the same two people
Khalid and Willie, I can live in Abuja, within four to five years, they embraced Islam, when the
lahemaa for semi workiva marfil. Up and to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens, and whatever is
		

			on the earth, He forgives whom He wills, and punishes whom He wills, and Allah is Forgiving and
Merciful. So what should we do, we should want the best for every person, even if he turns away from
us, even if he says the most harshest words to us still wish the best for them. Pray for them that
may Allah guide them, or you will have believed do not consume interest doubled and multiplied, but
fear Allah that you may be successful, because what happened at the Battle of word? Why is it that
the Muslims victory turned into loss? Why? Because when they saw the enemy retreating, they thought,
okay, we have one. And many of them, they left their positions, where the profits on a lot of seven
		

			had appointed them. Why did they leave those positions to go and gather the booty to go and gather
the things of this world? What does that show her Petunia love of this world? So Allah says, leave
interest, leave interest, why? Because when a person is consuming interest, what does that show also
love for this dunya that I cannot do without a house of my own. Even if I have to take it through
interest, I will take it. I cannot do without this and without this and without this even if I have
to take it through interest, I will take it. But we see that when we disobey Allah in these matters.
What does that show that something else is more beloved to us than a law that we are not willing to
		

			give up our love for a house. Our love for material things for Allah subhanho wa Taala so all
believers leave interest, leave it, don't deal with it, it is dirty, whether it is doubled or
multiplied and fear Allah that you may be successful and fear the fire which has been prepared for
the disbelievers and obey Allah and the messenger that you may obtain mercy will Sadie rule a llama
filati Mira become Why are you holding on to the things of this world that will take you to the
fire? Why are you so greedy for the things of this world, leave them and hasten to forgiveness from
your Lord. You should be rushing towards forgiveness, not rushing towards this world rush towards a
		

			garden agenda, which is as wide as the heavens and the earth, but it is prepared for who for those
who are righteous, who those who are willing to give up 2200 square feet when they will give up 2200
square feet 3000 square feet of how long Allah will give them
		

			agenda which is as wide as the sky and the earth,
		

			as wide as the sky and the earth. Just look around you when you go outside how massive This world
is, how huge how high the sky is. And imagine the vastness of gender that Allah has promised to who
do who. Those who just claim that Allah Allah, those who have Taqwa, those who truly fear Allah, and
what is the core of Allah, that a person leaves, leaves? he avoids what Allah has forbidden. Because
if he does not avoid it, if he does not, if he does not leave it, then he's presenting himself for
punishment was Sadhguru hastened to forgiveness from your Lord and a garden, as Why does the heavens
and the earth prepared for the righteous? Who are they Alinea, you will feel Kona, for some law, you
		

			are the raw, there are those who spend in the cause of Allah during ease and hardship and those who
restrain their anger, anger also can be controlled by who, but the one who is willing to give up his
beloved expression of anger, because sometimes we also love to show our anger. So the one who is
willing to give that up for the sake of Allah, he can control his anger and those who pardon people
and Allah loves the doers of goodwill loving your head bullmore sinning, highlight this will love
Will you have been more sinning, because a month of your son is coming up.
		

			in Hades, we learned that the strong person is He Who controls himself at the time of anger. Why?
Because he has overcome himself. And he has also overcome the chantler he has defeated himself and
he will defeat a champion.
		

			And those who, when they commit and immorality around themselves by transgression, they remember a
lot immediately, and they seek forgiveness for their sins, and who can forgive sins except Allah
when my federal law, sins have been committed, mistakes have happened. But who can forgive sins
except Allah, only a luck and forgive so don't wait and ask him for forgiveness, beg him for pardon.
And those who do not persist in what they have done, while they know meaning once they find out,
this is something wrong, they leave it. Those they reward is forgiveness from their Lord and gardens
beneath which rivers flow in paradise wherein they will abide eternally. And excellent is the reward
		

			of the righteous workers, similar situations as yours have passed on before you so proceed
throughout the earth and observe how was the end of those who denied look at the houses huge and
tall, fully furnished, lavish houses? The owners are gone. Because the fact is that the places we
live in the things we enjoy, we only have them temporarily. Ultimately, where are we going to end up
in the grave? So look around unless that's traveled through the earth? See, what was the end of
those who denied this Orion is a clear statement, the message is clear. There is no ambiguity. Make
no mistake, the Quran is a clear statement to all the people and the guidance and instruction for
		

			those conscious of Allah while after he no one, no one are alone in quantum meaning. So do not
weaken. Do not feel weak. Do not grieve, and you will be superior if you are believers. If you are
believers, you fix your faith. You reform your faith first, then what will happen, Allah will grant
you success. But if our man is corrupt, if our man is weak, if our relationship with Allah is not
correct, then how can we be successful? How can we be successful in anything? If a wound should
touch you, because you see at the Battle of the Muslim suffered, suffered the loss of 70 Sahaba 70
Sahaba were martyred at the Battle of Earth. This was a huge loss. Allah says, if a wound has
		

			touched you, then don't worry. Why? Because there has already touched the opposing people a wound
similar to it, meaning previously at the Battle of burden which was before what did you do? You
killed 70 of their men. You killed 70 of their men, now you have lost 70. Now you're equal. And
these days of varying conditions, we alternate among the people so that Allah may make evident those
who believe and may take to himself from among you martyrs, and Allah does not like the wrongdoers.
The thing is that when we suffer a loss, then we become extremely sad. we grieve so much. We go into
depression, thinking that now we can never be happy. But the fact is that whatever loss we have
		

			incurred in this life, if you look around there will always be people
		

			Who have either suffered more than you, or at least as much as you? At least as much as you? So
think if they're still working, if they're still trying, why should I give up the mushrikeen, they
suffered a loss of 70 people at budds that did not prevent them from coming again. They came again
and they fought Muslims that are hurt, and they killed 70 Muslims. So the Muslims are being told
that if your enemies to stood back up on its feet after this loss, why can you not get back on your
feet? You can also do it. And remember, this loss is not really a loss, because the 70 people who
die a lot took them as martyrs. And with this test, Allah will purify the believers and destroy the
		

			disbelievers. Or do you think that you will enter Paradise, while Allah has not yet made evident,
those of you who fight in his cause, and made evident those who are steadfast difficulties and
trials come for this purpose, so that our true nature is known. And you had already wished you had
certainly wished for martyrdom before you encountered it? Meaning before you were thinking, yes, I
want to be sure he and then what happened? You have now seen it before you while you were looking
on? Who am Mr hamedan illa rosu Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is not but a messenger. He is
only a messenger, a human being. You see, when the Muslims left their positions at the Battle of
		

			Earth, and when to collect the booty what happened the enemy returned and attacked again. And so the
Muslims were not able to get back on their feet and fight back. And so many lives were lost, so much
so that a rumor spread that the Prophet sallallahu Sallam has also been martyred. And at that some
Muslims, they said, What's the point of fighting? Now? Let's just give up. What's the point of
fighting that grief, that pain that all the profits are the medicine has been killed because of our
negligence. They felt so weak inside because of this, this loss because of this pain, that they that
they could not find the strength to get up and fight, to fight to fight back. So Allah subhanaw
		

			taala says, Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is not but a messenger, other messengers have
passed on before him. So if he was to die, or be killed, would you turn back on your heels to
unbelief? Meaning Why did you stop fighting, you should not have stopped struggling. Because this
religion is whose religion allows religion.
		

			The religion lives on even after the death of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam. This religion
moves on, even if one person dies, even if one goes away, the religion moves, it continues. Because
this religion is Allah is religion, and Allah is Ever living. So if we're trying to please alone, if
our struggle is for the sake of a law, then it doesn't matter who is there or who is not there, what
is there or what is not there? Why Because Allah is watching us, Allah is there, we are striving for
him. And he who turns back on his heels will never harm a lot at all. But Allah will reward the
Grateful who are the Grateful people, those who bear loss with patience, because remember, loss vain
		

			hardship, when a person bears it with someone, then that is a form of sugar. That is a form of
gratitude. That Yes, Oh Allah, I'm suffering from this, but you have still given me so much. Yes,
there is still more that I can do. I have not died, my life is not over. There's still good things
to do. So those who are grateful, Allah will reward them. And it is not possible for a person to
die, except by permission of Allah at a decree determined and whoever desires the reward of this
world, we will give him there off and whoever desires the reward of the Hereafter, we will give him
their off, and we will reward the Grateful and how many a prophet fought and with him fought many
		

			religious people, many religious scholars, knowledgeable people, companions of the Prophet, but they
never lost assurance due to what afflicted them in the cause of Allah, nor did they weaken or
submit. And Allah loves this techfest. in Hades we learned so hello the low or no, he said, that
when the helmet of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam was hit, it was struck, and it got smashed on his
head, and blood covered his face. And one of his front teeth got broken on either below or on who
brought the water in his shield. And Fatima, the daughter of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam wash the
wounds of the Prophet sallallahu sallam. And when she saw that the bleeding increased more by the
		

			water, she took a mat and she burnt it and she placed the ashes on the wound of the prophet in order
to stop the bleeding. This is all that the Prophet of Allah had. This is what he went through.
		

			Think about it. What are we suffering in the way of Allah? Because if we do have to suffer Something
in the way of Allah, we think we need to stop. We need to we need to take a break. We need to give
up. Look at how much rasulillah suffered. Did he give up? Did he give up? No. Did he did he become
weak? No. He kept working. He kept striving.
		

			And their words were not but that they said the only words they said at the time of difficulty was a
benefit Lana de novo now what is Rafa? nafi andrina Our Lord forgive us our sins and the excess
committed in our affairs. Because the fact is that when we do suffer, when we are feeling weak, it
is because of what it is because of our own sins. It is because of our own sins, because remember
that our sins become a barrier between us and Allah. So whenever we are finding difficulty upon
difficulty in the way of a lot, what's the number one thing we need to do? Is the far Robin outfit
learner the nobuna what is Rafa? nafi and Marina, our Lord, forgive us our sins and the excess that
		

			we have committed in our affairs, we have crossed many boundaries and planned firmly our feet and
give us victory over the disbelieving people. So Allah gave them the reward of this world and the
good reward of the hereafter. And Allah loves the doers of good. Yeah, you have ladina amanu or you
have believed if you obey those who believe they will turn you back on your heels and you will then
become losers meaning you must remain firm on a man on allows obedience in every situation. But in
our Humala comb, Allah is your protector, and he is the best of helpers, so seek His help seek His
protection, we will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelief for what they have associated
		

			with a law of which he had not sent down any authority and their refuge will be the fire and
wretched is the residence of the wrongdoers. And the law had certainly fulfilled his promise to you,
when you were killing the enemy by his permission, meaning at the beginning you were victorious
until the time when you lost courage and fell to disputing about the order which order that was
given by the prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam when you did not remain together, what happened? You
lost Allah's help also. Because remember, when we were united, we received the help of Allah when we
become disunited, then we are left to ourselves. And you disobeyed, after he had shown you that
		

			which you love. Because what happened, they ran after the booty. So what happened you disobeyed the
messenger when he told you do not move from there, among you are some who desire this world and
among your some who desire the Hereafter, then he turned you back from them defeated, that he might
test you in this loss was also a test and he has already forgiven you. And Allah is a possessor of
bounty for the believers. So whenever we fail in something, remember that is also a test. That is
also a test that what do we do at that time? What do we think about Allah at that time? How do we
look at our own mistakes at that time?
		

			So what do we learn that our efforts whatever we do, it should be for whose sake for Allah sake,
when it is for Allah sake with sincerity, then there will be Baraka. And when we do something which
is apparently religious, but for worldly benefits, then what happens? We will get only those worldly
benefits. The Prophet sallallahu Sallam said, Whoever fights in the cause of Allah intending only to
get an A small rope, then he will have what he intended. He will have what he intended. So see,
anything we're doing for the sake of Allah, even if it's fasting, what are we looking forward to the
fact that we can say to people yeah, I fasted the entire month of Ramadan. No.
		

			Hoping for an award from who? Allah subhanho wa Taala is to do remember when you fled and climb the
mountain without looking aside to anyone, while the messenger was calling you from behind? Because
when they were running away the prophets Allah Lawson was calling them he put his own life in
danger, and he called the Muslims in order to get them together. When he called out the Muslims, the
enemy knew where the Prophet sallallahu Sallam was. So immediately all the enemy went to the
prophets on lots of them in order to fight him. So Allah repaid you with distress upon distress, so
you would not grieve for that which you had escaped you. What is it that they had lost now victory,
		

			spoils of war or for that which had befallen you? What is it that the Muslim suffered at this point?
injury death? So what do we learn? Allah strengthens us through loss and suffering, one loss after
the other one pain after the other, what does that do? It increases our pain. tolerance, isn't it?
It increases our pain tolerance. So one thing after the other Why? So that you do not grieve
		

			For that which had escaped you or for that which had befallen you, and Allah is fully acquainted
with whatever you do.
		

			Then after distress he sent down upon you security in the form of drowsiness, overcoming affection
of you, one another faction worried about themselves, thinking of Allah, other than the truth, the
thought of ignorance, saying, Is there anything for us to have done in this matter? So we see that
when the Muslims did suffer this loss, the sincere believers, they remain firm. But then when after
you clean, the hypocrites, they began talking, they began saying that see, we told you, you should
have listened to us. If you had listened to us, you would not have suffered today. Allah says tell
them indeed the matter belongs completely to Allah. It's not about what we want. It's about what
		

			Allah wants, they can see within themselves what they will not reveal to you. They say if there was
anything we could have done in the matter, some of us would not have been killed right here. Meaning
you should have listened to us and we should not have gone out of Medina. And we should have just
defended Medina from inside. And if you had listened to us, these 70 people would not have died.
		

			Allah says tell them, even if you had been inside your houses, those decreed to be killed would have
come out to their deathbeds. It was so that Allah my test what is in your * and purify what is
in your hearts, and Allah is Knowing of that within the hearts. Allah knows what we can see in the
hearts. Indeed, those of you who turned back on the day the two armies met, it was shaped on who
caused them to slip because of some blame they had earned. Why is it that the Muslims incurred loss
at this time? Why? Allah says it was shaped on who caused them to slip because of some blame they
had earned because of some sin that they had committed. But Allah has already forgiven them. Indeed,
		

			Allah is Forgiving and forbearing
