Taleem al Quran 2012 – P02 020C Tafsir Al-Baqarah 143

What Connecticut you're on now Come on Martin was upon and as we have made you and OMA a nation that is Wesselton galica. The word Gallica is Kerr and vaniqa. What is coming, like Angelica that suggests like that similarly, likewise, in the same way, in the same way as what, in the same way that we have decided the Qibla for you, we have commanded you to face Baitullah the Kaaba in your prayer and not beta mock this anymore. Just as we have made this decision for you. We are the ones who have made you on within wassan. So Allah is the One who has commanded that we face the karma in Salah and he is the one who has decreed for the Muslim Ummah that they be on Martin was often what

does he mean by Oh matter was often OMA nation community was upon was upon is on the roll letter as well seen thought well seen. And the word was hope is understood mainly in two ways. First of all, it is used for that which is in the middle. That which is in the middle of something. For example, in distance, five kilometers, what's in the middle? Three, you have two on the right and two on the left, two in front of you two behind you. So three is what was up. You have five apples, all in a row. Which one is in the WhatsApp. The third one? It's in the middle. So WhatsApp is that which is in the middle, whether it is middle in distance, or in quantity, or in quality. This is what

WhatsApp means middle. So what does it mean by this OMA than was often a middle Amma middle with regards to its time, meaning from the beginning of creation until the end of time, the time that has passed and the time that is left is equal where the Muslim ummah stands. So when the Prophet sort of autism came, when this Muslim Ummah is established, how much time has passed, since the beginning of creation, the same as the time that is left until the day of judgment,

but there is a second meaning, which makes more sense that the word wassup also means that which is best, that which is best. Why, if you think about it, whatever is in the middle is the best. Have you ever been to a doctor's appointment and they tell you that your height for your age is average? Your weight for your ages average? Your growth is perfectly average, and you'd like 100

That's the only thing that you can be happy about being average. Every time I take my son to a doctor's appointment, I always wonder is he in the lawyer side or the upper side? You know, if he's in the average, I'm very glad. So whatever is in the middle is the best age when it comes to age. Which one is the best? Middle, right? When you're too young, you can't do anything people say you're too young. When you grow older than you can do it. When you're very old. People tell you you're old go have a seat. You can't come with us. You said I'll drive you sit, I'll cook. So the best eight is which one middle? When it comes to spending, what kind of spending is best spending nothing we're

spending too much in the mill. So we see that moderation is that which is best. So OMA than was upon means the best OMA, why the best OMA because it is free from extremes when it comes to the *tier that Allah subhanaw taala has given to this ummah it is free from extremes. For example, when we look at the yo hood, what did they do with the messengers that were sent to them? They killed them, or they rejected them. The Nosara the messengers were sent to them for example, are you sorry, this now what did they do to them? They exalted him to the level of God extremes, but the Muslim ummah moderates right in the middle, balanced.

We see that when it comes to dietary laws, that you who are extremely strict, more strict than us. And when it comes to Christians, extremely lenient. Similarly, when it comes to marriage, when it comes to divorce, when it comes to the laws regarding cleanliness, they would we see that their religion extremely strict, and the Christians, on the other hand, very, very lenient, but the Muslim ummah balanced, moderate. Now there is a term that's very common these days, moderate Muslim, and there is another one that is used in contrast to it. Extremist fundamentalist what do people think a moderate person is that he prays sometimes but he doesn't pray other times.

Seems he doesn't have a beard, but he's very nice in his manners. She doesn't wear hijab, but she prays five times a day. This is what we think moderate Muslim is right? That extremely educated but never been to hudge, very wealthy and very educated, very influential, very charitable, but at the same time, they don't wear hijab. This is what we think moderate is. And we think that a fundamentalist or an extremist is who a person who wears hijab and prays a person who has a beard, and he also works. We think that he's an extremist. But this is not what this IO means on within wesselman does not mean moderate according to our standard, it means moderate according to the law

of Allah. Remember, every command that Allah has given us, every command that is in this religion, it teaches us moderation, it keeps us balanced. If we leave anything, we would be going to extremes. Many times we think that a moderate Muslim is the one who conforms to the society to the culture, pop culture, whatever it is, they wanted, a Muslim should conform to everything is moderate. And if he doesn't fully conform, then he's an extremist. But if you think about it, if for example, I go to work, and I wear hijab, and I pray, my work allows me to do that this country allows me to do that. So what's extremist about that there is nothing extremist about that. I'm doing what I'm supposed to

do in the way that is practical for me in the way that is possible for me. So there's nothing wrong with that. There is also another perception of extremists are extremely severe, extremely harsh when it comes to matters of religion. They will look down on others, they will not accommodate others in any way at all. They will go on saying to other people on their face that they're going to hellfire, this person has got feared that person is scattered. They think that they are the persons who are at the highest level when it comes to religion. So they have the authority to say whatever. This is something that's not right. It's definitely not acceptable. So anyway, back to omoton Wesselton.

Allah subhanaw taala says that waka daddy Kajal Nakum, Oman wassan Allah has made us the best ummah. How has Allah subhanaw taala made us the best that Allah has given us the best *tier Allah has given us the most practical religion, the easy religion in which there is no difficulty. Why, what's the reason? Lita Kuno shahada Allah, so that you may be witnesses over mankind. shahada is chlorella, Shaheed or SHA hit a witness Sheena dal, Allah NAS upon the people. What does it mean by this little corner shahada Alana so that you may be a witness over the people. This is understood in two ways, first of all, in this world, that you will be a witness over the people that the religion

that Allah has given to you, you convey to others, you also tell others about it. And secondly, on the Day of Judgment, that on the Day of Judgment, you will bear witness against the people. What does it mean by this? We learned that on the Day of Judgment, Allah subhanaw taala will ask the people about the deeds that they have performed. Obviously, Allah knows very well about what they have done. But Allah will question them for the purpose of herself. And we see that people will say, we did this wrong, because we never knew we were supposed to worship only we had no idea, Allah who question them, were no messenger sent to you, they will say no, we had no idea nobody came and told

us and obviously why will they say this just to save themselves on that day? So Allah who will ask their messenger, did you not convey and the messenger will say, of course, I conveyed. So there is a dispute. Now, the people are saying, Nobody told us the messenger saying I fully conveyed. So Allah who will ask the messengers, do you have anyone else who can support you in your claim? Who can come as a witness to testify in your favor? And the messengers will say, yes, the OMA of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So Allah will ask Ahmed, Mohammed, us that did so and so messenger conveyed the message to his people. And our responsibility at that time is to say, Yes, he did

convey.

Question is how do we know? We were never there when no Hello Salam came when there is our lesson time came? We weren't there. So how do we know that the messenger is fully conveyed? How, from the book of Allah from the Quran, from this alien that Allah has given to us? Because we know that testimony is based on what what you have seen and what you have studied, what you know, to be as a fact. So on the Day of Judgment, Lita, kono shahada, Allah NAS, we are supposed to bear witness against the people that yes, their Messengers did convey to them, where your corner was soul and the messenger meaning the messenger Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he will be our lay come upon

you Shahidan a witness, you will testify against the people and Your Messenger will testify against you. What does it mean by this? That Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he will also testify against us on the Day of Judgment that Oh,

Allah I conveyed fully to my nation to my people, I conveyed fully to them. And we learn that even in this world, the Prophet salallahu Salam made it clear, we learned that it had to deal with the Farewell Pilgrimage. The Prophet sallallahu sallam, he was there before so many people he addressed them and he said, Allah hull, beloved, have an odd conveyed call Luna from the people said, Yes, call her the Prophet sallallahu Sallam then he said, Allahu Masha, Oh Allah, bear witness that I did convey.

And this he said three times, he said, Allah, Allah, Allah, two people said now he said, Allahu Masha, and then again, he said, Allah al Baluch. People said, Damn, he said, Allahu Mashhad, three times, he made it very clear to the people that he conveyed fully to them. But of course, there will be people on the Day of Judgment, who will be saying we didn't know, even from the Muslim ummah. I remember, when I was in school, there was a person in my class and they would say, you know, I know we're supposed to pray. I know we're supposed to do this, but I don't do this kind of stuff. So one day, we were in a very serious discussion about religion and such things. So the teacher asked that

person, what excuse you're gonna give on the Day of Judgment. I mean, you don't do it, but still, you know, you don't do it, because you don't want to. He said, You know, I'll say the Quran was an Arabic. I don't speak Arabic. I don't know. Can you imagine? People say such things even know, amongst Muslims? The Quran was in Arabic, I didn't know. I'm not going to follow it. What's the response to that? Allah has preserved the Arabic language. And Allah has made it very much possible for you to understand the Quran in Arabic to open up their translation of the Quran to listen to an explanation of the Quran to read the seer. Understanding the Quran is not impossible today. So if a

person says oh, it was an Arabic I don't know, who's at fault, him way Hakuna Rasulullah alaykum Shahida the messenger will be a witness against you. You say you didn't know the messenger will say that I fully conveyed I made it very clear to the people. We learned in Surah An Nisa number 41. So how would it be when we will extract from every nation their witness, and we will bring you O Muhammad salallahu Salam as a witness against them, meaning from every nation, Allah who will bring their messenger to witness against the people and Allah who asked Muhammad salallahu salam to witness against us as well way Hakuna Rasulullah alaykum Shahida the messenger will be a witness

against you. We learn the Quran in Surah Furqan number 30. Allah says we'll call her Sue on the Day of Judgment, the messenger will say you're a bee Oh my lord in hakomi it Taha who has an animal Jhula indeed my people, they abandoned the Quran. So the people who leave the Quran who study but forget who right but they put away they don't live with the Quran. The messenger will bear witness against them way Hakuna Rasul or alaykum Shahida you have been made the best Amma not to enjoy the privileges, but you have been given a great responsibility that you're supposed to follow this religion and you're also supposed to convey it to other people. And if you don't, whether you do or

you don't the messenger will be a witness either for you or against you on the Day of Judgment way Hakuna Rasulullah alaykum Shalida what's the purpose of saying this? We see in this part of the idea that Allah subhanaw taala is making the Muslim ummah realize their responsibility. What is your responsibility to live by the deen and to tell other people as well? What's the purpose of saying this right now, after mentioning that we look at law after mentioning the change of the Qibla. The reason is that the change of people at the shift of Qibla signified it showed it made it very clear to the people that there was also a shift of responsibility, a shift of privileges that came with

that responsibility. Before the Muslim ummah, who was the one responsible to convey the message, the Bani Israel. The Prophet sallallahu sallam was supposed to follow their Qibla however, when they did not believe Allah made it very clear, the messenger is now to face Baitullah when praying Salah that is going to be his Scribbler. And just as the Qibla has been changed, likewise the responsibility has also been shifted. You are no longer the chosen people to the Bani Israel was made very clear to them that you are no longer the chosen people. Now the chosen people OMA than was Athan are those who follow Mohamed Salah already.

So just as Allah changed the Quibbler he also made the Muslim ummah, Oman was suffer now. He made them the chosen people, the Bani Israel were no longer the chosen people, worker that he could now come home with and was upon. But we must realize, you know, we shouldn't be thinking that yeah, we're the chosen people. We're believers. So we're gonna go to paradise for sure. It comes with a huge responsibility. We can only be the best nation if we fulfill that responsibility. If we don't fulfill this responsibility, we don't follow him. We're not the best people

but we're not the chosen people. In the Quran Allah says quantum higher on math and you are the best station. Why? Oh collegiately nurse you have been taken up for the people, you will have been made the best nation to guide others. And if you don't guide others, are you the best people? You're not the best people

wanna journal Kybella and we did not make the Qibla meaning we did not decide we did not command you, that you face the Qibla which Dibbler allottee contra later, which you were on meaning what you were facing previously, which trivializes referring to beta macness The only reason why Allah commanded the believers to face beta and mock this for some time was what Illa except me the only reason was Linari lemma so that women or I inland meme, Allah may come to know what man who yet who have Rasool who is the one who follows the messenger. May Manda and the one who Yun Kalibo Allah Aki Bay, he turns on his yields. This was a test the short amount of time when the believers were to

phase beta and mock this in Salah was what? After that the command was changed again. The people were supposed to face Kaaba again. Why was this change done so rapidly within 17 months? Why? Allah was testing the people? Who is it who truly follows the messenger? And who is it that would turn away on his heels? Turn away from Islam? Notices may yet have your have Rasul who is one who will follow the messenger yet who is from Turbo rain from the word etbr. And etbr is to follow someone. Basically, it means a mushy, harmful incense to walk behind another person. What does it mean, to walk behind another person? And this is in two ways if the bar is in two ways, first of all, in the

physical sense, and secondly, the intangible sense, physical hissy to literally follow someone. For example, your sister is walking in front of you, and you're walking behind her. She turns right, you turn right. She turns left you turn left she keeps going straight, you keep going straight, she stops you stop, she stops to meet someone you also stop to meet someone. What is this? Literally following someone their footsteps? The second is marinucci intangible following someone what does it mean by that? That you follow the actions, the statements the ways of a person. For example, we are supposed to do it the bar of the Prophet salallahu Salam doesn't mean, we go to Makkah. And then

from there, we migrate to Medina. And then we go to butter. Then we go to Ohio, and then we dig the trenches is that the Father we're supposed to do? Repeat his life, the places he went to? No, we're not supposed to do that. The VA that we're supposed to do is the actions he did his ways. His words, we adopt the same in our lives. So when he woke up, he said Alhamdulillah Hilah, the Ohana about them. And Matt and I were sure when we wake up, we say the same thing. When he put on his clothes, he put the right in first and then the left. So when we put on clothes, we do the same thing. When he ate, he ate with his right hand. So when we eat We also eat with our right hand. So at bar of the

messenger sallallahu alayhi wa Salam is that we follow Him in His ways, in his actions, in his statements in his lifestyle, in the way that he worshipped Allah in the way that he met other people in the way that he dealt with other people we adopt the same way. So every action at the messenger does the believers do the exact same thing. The Prophet sallallahu Sallam he was to face beta mock this and then he was to face Kaaba to the believers at that time they were supposed to follow him. How are they to follow him? That when he was facing beta Marcos de alta phase beta mock this, when he faces the Kaaba, they continue facing beta notice? No, they also face the garba so Allah was

testing people who is it that will precisely follow the messenger to every step every way every action, even the direction that he's facing? And who is it that will turn away? Are they active a young clip off lamber in pillar how to turn around. So young fella, he turns around Allah upon RP RP Bay, is actually RP bein dual off RP. And there are our top heels, the heel of your foot. Imagine this young column, Allah RPV he turns on his heels. Have you ever done that? Then on your heels and then turn around and when you turn around, you take a complete turn. You take a complete turn, you no longer face what you were facing before you no longer do what you were doing before. So who is it

that will turn away from Islam completely?

deeply abandon the religion completely. Allah was testing the people.

So what do we see here? That sometimes Allah give certain commands? Why? Simply to test people? Allah decrees certain things in our lives simply to test us. The objective is not to harm us. No, Allah decrease certain things in our lives. Why? To test us? How do we react? Do we follow? Do we do what Allah wants us to do? Do we accept whatever he's sending our way? Or do we turn away and get upset and become completely different? Leave whatever He wants us to do? Allah does people. Notice the word Linaro nama. So that we may come to know, does Allah not know about everything from before? Yes, we learned earlier saya Kulu. He will soon say. So before even the people said Allah knew that

this is what they will say. So what does it mean by this? Does Allah not already know? Who is it that will remain firm on their religion? And who will turn away? Allah knows about the reality of every single person? So what does it mean by this Linaro lemma. This is understood in two ways. First of all, so that we make a parent. Remember that Allah knows about everything. But there's some things that Allah manifested, Allah causes to be shown as well. For example, a person may be very righteous, He may be reciting the Quran, when he's alone, he may be seeking your stuff or when he's alone, he may be doing some actions secretly away from the eyes of people, because he doesn't want

to show to people the kind of good deeds that he performs. He's hiding the good deeds that he does. Who knows about his righteousness? Allah knows about who knows about his good deeds, Allah knows. But sometimes Allah will create situations so that His righteousness, his good deeds are shown to other people as well, to let other people know that he is a good person as well. For example, a person was giving charity secretly, and other person season, a person was on his way somewhere and the other season so for example, a bucket of Leila and he did actions. He did good deeds secretly so many times, but are morally low on who he would follow him. Where is he going? What is he doing? He

will follow him. So once he followed him like this, because he would leave every day, early in the morning, so he followed him and he found that there was a house he went into now for some time he came out. So he went to that same house and he saw there was an old blind woman. He said, Who is that man? Why did he come and who is he? She said that he comes every day he makes my door, he cleans my house. I don't know who he is. He just does all these things and he goes away. So from what I've learned, who found out about the secret good deed of Abu Bakr Robledo.

So Allah knows about the reality of every person, how good they are, how bad they are. But Allah shows that goodness to other people and Allah shows that evil to other people as well. And sometimes Allah hides this, Allah concealed this in this world, but when will he show it? When will he definitely show it on the Day of Judgment, we're sure he didn't want my shoot the witness and the one that is witnessed, meaning the actions the people, the hearts of the people will be witnessed by everyone on the Day of Judgment you cannot hide. So dinar Allah, Allah was going to make it known who is the true follower, and who is not the true follower. Because as we learned earlier, but the

Munna 15, that when the Prophet salallahu Salam came to Medina, many people embraced Islam. Why? Just to follow the people just to show that they were Ultra righteous. So times like these, they're inside their inner state was revealed. Because there were some people who left Islam at this occasion, who did not remain Muslim anymore. So it was made very clear these people are not following the messenger, if they were following the messenger, they will do everything for the messenger does, then who are they following their own desires, their own intellect, what makes sense to them, they do whatever does not make sense for them. They don't do Celina lemma mania, WA

oversoul women collembola arqiva RPV. Secondly, linear Allah. This is in on the basis of which Allah subhanaw taala recommends his people. Allah knows about every person, this person is going to do this good deed, this person is going to do that sin. Allah knows about every person, but just because Allah knows he will not reward and punish someone. Just because Allah knows he will not reward and punish someone. This is just like a teacher. She knows that one of her students, she's very good. She does very well on her test. She has been studying very seriously. She knows that the student is going to get an A she is going to pass. Another student doesn't study doesn't even

bother. She knows she's going to fail. So what does she do? Does she wait for the test day, take their tests, marks their tests and then enter their records? Or does she even before the test expenses that she's going to pass? Okay. 80% She's going to fail. Okay, zero. No, just because she knows she's going to pass and she's going to fail. She's not going to give the reward or punishment. She's not allowed to do that. Even though she knows even though she may be 100% Sure. Similar

only Allah knows about the state of every person, but Allah will not reward a person before he does a good deed. And he will not punish a person before he does a crime. So in Lelli, naira lemma Manyata, bureaucracy will Romanian collibra narrative A. So Allah was going to see who does good who follows the messenger so that he may be rewarded, and who does not follow the messenger. So he may be punished. Were incarnate. And indeed it was what was the widow qibla, changing of the Qibla from Beighton martyrs to garba. This was like a bureau surely something that is very great. Kabira calf ba ba kabhi it is something that it's big in its size, but not only begin its size, something that

you perceive you think of is very big, for example, for you to fall laundry, oh my god, it's like an elephant, moving an elephant, and for your mother, a piece of cake. So for you to fall laundry, even if it's just one load of laundry is a huge impossible task. Why? Because of how you look at it. And for another person, it's only one load of laundry, not that big of a deal. Why? Because of how they look at it. So what Encana click Avira shortly, this change of people was something that was very big, very difficult, very burdensome. For who, for many people, in that except Arlen Lavina. Had Allah except for those people whom Allah guided those people whom Allah guided for them change of

Qibla no big deal. But for some others, it was a very, very big deal. When the Prophet SAW Allah said and went for Miraj, and he returned, and he informed the people in which she came, they went to Cuba Coppola. And he said, you know, you're a friend, he says, he went up to the heavens, and he came down in one night. He said, If he said it, I believe that. It wasn't difficult for him to believe why, because if he told me about the news that come to him from the skies, it's not difficult for me to believe that he went to the skies now. So for Abu Bakar Leon who not a big deal at all, but for some other people, it was a huge deal. They could not believe in Him, they could not

accept the Prophet salallahu Salam anymore. So likewise, as we looked at, it was difficult for many people, except for who those whom Allah guided. And again, our Ladino Had Allah had a headache over here is of two types and endophytic. Those to whom Allah has given her either and those to whom Allah has given tofield

The more a person learns about this religion, the more person learns the Quran, the more easier it becomes for him to accept the commands of Allah.

And when a person does not know, it's very hard upon him.

Take your own example. It's quite possible that a few months back praying Salah were a few years back when you didn't know much praying Salah was like somebody told you to go do bungee jumping. Literally, it's fine that for some people, there's if somebody is telling them to jump off a mountain. But now after studying a little bit of the Quran, even even getting a little bit of knowledge time for Salah, okay, get up do what to pray, no big deal. So the more a person learns, the more easier it becomes for him to accept the commands of Allah to perform acts of obedience. And when a person does not know, then it becomes more and more difficult. Math. It's quite possible

physics, chemistry, when you didn't really study it that seriously. Oh my God, I don't like it. It's so hard. It's so difficult. It's impossible. But then once you start doing it, and you start getting it and you start understanding it, you enjoy it. You love it, you enjoy it. And if there's any person who says I don't like math, what's the reason? They haven't practiced enough? They haven't understood. I was one of those people. I struggled. I struggled for years and years through simple algebra, simple equations, simple formulas, I struggled. But alhamdulillah May Allah bless my math teacher, he explained things to me when I was in grade nine, so simple. Everything became so easy

for me and Hamdulillah that No, it's not that big of a deal. But 100 I scored an A, I was very happy about that. It was impossible for me to get an A in middle school, it was impossible for me. So when you don't know something very hard, when you know, it becomes easier. So we're in Canada Kabira Illa Allah Allah Dena Had Allah those to whom Allah has given knowledge to it becomes very easy to them to accept the commands of Allah and for others, it becomes very difficult when I can hola Julio Leah Eman accom and Allah who would never ever waste your faith. You'll be our God Yeah. arraign bleah it means to waste something. What does it mean to waste something? So Allah would never ever waste what

Eman a comb your Eman? What does the man mean? What is Iman fit, right? Where's Iman, can you touch it? Can you show me the box? Can you show me the case?

in which a man is it's not something physical, where is it? It's in the heart. But if the man is in the heart, is it enough to say it's in my heart? No. If a person has a man in their heart, then will it not be shown in the actions they do? In the words they say, in the thoughts they think, of course. Eman is manifested through a person's actions through a person's words through a person's thinking. Over here, Allah says, Allah would never ever waste your iman. What does this refer to? When the Qibla was changed? Some people got scared that we prayed facing battle monsters for 16 or 17 months for so long. What about all of those prayers? Do we have to repeat them now? Are they

wasted? We have to repeat them or are they acceptable? So people were afraid and there were some people who had actually passed away even before the Qibla was changed so they died when there could blow was beta mock this. So Allah says Wilma can Allah Julio br e Monaco Allah who had never ever waste your Eman? Eman over here refers to Salah Allah would never waste your prayer. Meaning the prayers that you perform facing wait and mock this you performed at the command of Allah. So Allah has accepted those. And now if you're facing beta Allah, it's at the command of Allah so Allah will accept that as well. If people died facing byton McPherson prayer, that was the Command of Allah. It

wasn't out of their own desires that we're facing way to mock this. So Allah would never ever waste your email. This shows to us that even Eman is also actions because Salah what the salah include actions and words and it also involves your thinking your heart. So likewise, Eman is also the same. Wilma can Allah Julio they are Eman accom in Allah have been asked indeed Allah with the people he is little orphan surely one was most affectionate were Haman most Merciful. Roof raw Hamza fell Rafa. Rafa is a shudder Rama, extreme mercy, to be extremely merciful towards someone very, very compassionate towards them, very caring towards them. And in particular low fat is when you see

someone in trouble, your heart is filled with mercy and compassion and you want to take them out of difficulty. You want to take them out of their problem. So Allah He is Laura Oh surely is most affectionate. When people are in distress when they're in difficulty Allah takes about which is why if a person even suffers the prick of authority and his patient, Allah rewards him for that. Such a small suffering, but what a great reward. What does it show how compassionate Allah is? Rahim is Merciful, the good deeds that you performed, Allah is not going to ask you to repeat them again. The prayers that you perform facing Waitemata so you don't have to repeat them again. No, they are valid

in their position.

Let's listen to the recitation of these verses and then we'll discuss the lessons what

was up on Google shahada

was all

John, let

me

once

we're in Canada

levena had a long one can along with you, you'll be

in a long

walk up.

Seeing this idea that Allah subhanaw taala says waka daddy, could y'all know como on mutton was self one we have made you OMA than Wesselton the best nation, the most moderate nation.

What does this show to us the highest status of the OMA of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam. But this high status comes with what a huge responsibility. So we can only be the great people when we performed a great responsibility. As long as we follow the messenger we conveyed the message to the people we are on within Wesselton but if we don't do that we're not on within Wesselton Allah has made his own within Washington so that we may be a witness for mankind to mankind against mankind in this world and on the Day of Judgment. And if we're not doing that we're not on within Wesselton

we also learned this verse that the Prophet sallallahu wasallam he fully conveyed every single thing that he was supposed to whether it was something small or something big, because why Hakuna Rasulullah alaykum Shahida he can only be a witness against us when he fully conveyed. So he conveyed everything that he was supposed to come

And

then we also learn in this verse that Allah subhanaw taala sometimes tests people with the commands that he gives to them. These commands could be of different types. It could be something that has been made worship on something that is mandatory, you know, something that is compulsory, we have to do it. But Allah tasked us with that, because we might find it difficult, we might find it hard. Secondly, the honeymoon prohibition. So the matter is that Allah subhanaw taala has forbidden on us, we're not allowed to do that. Are there some things that are forbidden, but yet we're tempted to do it? Many things? So why did Allah subhanaw taala prohibit us from that simply to test us? Simply to

test us? For example, a person might say, why isn't it that we can date someone before we get married? I mean, how can you get married to someone you don't even know? What if you get married and you feel that it's not the right person? So should you date them before and figure out if they're the right person or not? People say that a lot, right? You might come up with many reasons. But also know that Allah is testing you here. Do you obey Allah? Or do you do what makes more sense to you? What you want to do? So Allah tests us through commands that are Why do you wanna sometimes those matters which are haram on us, similarly, through us through abrogation. So in the time of the

Prophet said, a lot of some people were tested in that. Also, we learn in this verse, that importance of following messenger sallallahu alayhi, wa salam, Allah was testing the people do the follow the messenger or not. And we see that the Sahaba, they followed the messenger. So a lot is set up so beautifully, especially at this occasion, it was manifested was made very clear. We learned that when the verses were revealed concerning the hudl, qibla, obviously, everybody did not know about it. And there was no Facebook, no Twitter, that you could just post something and everybody would come to know about it immediately. No, everything had to be spread through word of

mouth. So there was a man who prayed with the prophets that a lot of sudden facing the Kaaba, and then he went away. And when he was going, he went towards his house or whatever he found some people, they were still praying in the direction of faith, and muchness they were in ReCore. And he said, By Allah, I prayed with the messenger, and he was facing the Kaaba. And you know what happened? They turned in their father. They didn't say, you know, we'll figure out what's this, complete the Salah, and then we'll go and then we find out and we say, Why, then we discuss and we understand and if we fully understand that, we will do it no, the messenger prayed facing Baitullah,

they turned immediately, they did not wait. So following the messenger is something that is necessary, something that we have to do. Also, we learn in this verse that the hinoki blood training of the Qibla was something very difficult upon many people, except for those whom Allah guided. This is not just with the command of the wheel could love but with every other command, as well. There are two types of people. One is a person who does what Allah has commanded with ease, no problem, he will do it happily, he will do it easily, quickly. He'll do it no problem whatsoever. But there is another person who will do the same thing, but with a lot of difficulty. For your mother, for

example, to sit down to read Quran, no problem, she will sit for an hour, she will read an entire just and for you. As soon as you begin a paid you're like, wow, how many more lines left? How many more versus left? And you keep looking at the clock? How much more time is left? Five minutes. Okay, two minutes over, quickly, quickly. So there are two types of people that do it very easily other people that do it with a lot of difficulty, the person who does it very easily, definitely his reward is a lot. Why? Because the Dean commands have as though entered him so that it's become part of his blood and souls that it's not difficult for him. It's become very natural for him to do the

good deeds. But for the person who does it with difficulty, what should he do? He should still do it, why he will get double reward. Why double reward one for doing the action and one for the difficulty that he's enjoying the hardship that he's facing? How much he has to control his knifes. He has to control himself to sit there to continue reading. Don't look at the clock. Keep reading. Don't look at the end of the page. Keep reading. So when you find something difficult, still do it. Do it anyway. Don't wait for that time when it'd be very easy for you to stand in prayer doing thorough we mean Quran. Don't wait for that. Because if you keep waiting for it, it'll never come.

Just do it. However you have to do it. Because you know what? When a person does something good, Allah makes it easier for him. For someone who yes, Cyril lil Yusra, Allah will facilitate that for him. Like we learned earlier, when a person comes to know when a person gains knowledge about something, then it becomes easier for him to do it. So the solution to finding difficulty in doing good deeds is what a do it anyway and B. Learn find out the more you will learn the more easier it will become

And this is something that happens, a person find something difficult but eventually it becomes easier. There is a statement that is said by many people follow Bernal Elmo, we sought knowledge we gain knowledge, delayed Allah, for other than Allah. When we were seeking knowledge, our intention was other than Allah, we want to become famous. We want to become the most knowledgeable person wants to impress people want to make our parents happy. For about a year corner, Illa Allah Allah, so knowledge refused that it should be except for Allah. Meaning we started off seeking it further than Allah but then eventually it became for Allah. We started off with a lot of difficulty, but

eventually, we got there. This is why on the Day of Judgment, almost permanent I will say to the people who enter Paradise, what kind of sorry you call Moscow rah. And your effort, your endeavor, is very much appreciated today. Because on the Day of Judgment, Allahu Allah, just look at the quantity that we have brought, but also the quality the effort that has been put into it. And very important lesson that we learned this versus that if a person finds obeying Allah subhanaw taala, following the commands of Allah, something that is easy than whose grace is it upon him. It's the grace of Allah. It's the huge favor of Allah because Allah Allah Dena Had Allah Allah guided, you

didn't guide yourself. You did not guide yourself, Allah guided you. You could never do it by yourself. Allah enabled you to do it.
