Taimiyyah Zubair – Taleem al Quran 2012 – P08 091C Tafsir Al-Araf 59-64

			sudo to arrive I am number 59 Laqad Oksana, certainly we sent new Han new alayhi salam ala call me
he to his people for color. So he said, Yeah call me, oh my people or Buddha Allah her, you all
worship Allah. Why? Because man not lecan For you, men from Allah when any god are you Who besides
Him, you have only one God? And who is he? Allah subhanaw taala therefore worship Him only if you
worship others, they're not your gods. So your worship will be useless. It's not going to bring you
any benefit. In fact, it's only going to bring you harm in me, worship Him because it may indeed I a
harmful I fear are they come on you meaning for you? Are there by the punishment meaning punishment
		

			yeomen of a day are women great? I fear for you a punishment Have a great day.
		

			In this
		

			new Harley, Sam is mentioned no earlier salon was the first messenger
		

			but you might say no other Alyssa was the first messenger.
		

			Adam or Islam was the first prophet he was the first man and no Halle salon was the first of a soul.
There is a difference between Nabi and Rasul Nabi own only reminds the people of what they already
know, or the message that they already have the Nabhi the Prophet, he comes and reinforces that
message. Like for example, how long are they Salam? Was it? Maybe? All right, or the prophets of the
Bani Israel? Who were the NBN? Why? Because they reinforced the message of the Torah. Musa al Islam
had taught them the prophets who came after him, they reinforced that same message of a soul, on the
other hand, is sent to a people who have been misguided who are in clear error. So he brings in a
		

			way, a new message, meaning a message that is completely new to the people. All right, so this is
one difference that the scholars have mentioned, between prophets and messengers. So no Hala salaam
was the first messenger. Why, how? Because other escena when he was sent to the earth, who was
there? Nobody, when he had his children, who were the believers in Allah subhanaw taala. Was there
any Schilke at that time? Did they worship any idols? Any statues? No, because mankind was born on
fitrah. All right, and they worshiped Allah subhanaw taala, there was no misguidance there were many
crimes, like for example, the son of Adam alayhis, salam, he committed murder. All right, there were
		

			many crimes, however, people were still worshipping, only Allah subhanaw taala. However, what
happened over time was that once there were some people who were very righteous, and when they
passed away, their friends, or the people who looked up to them, Shavon came to them. And she had
lon said, you're going to forget about these righteous people, your children will never know about
these good pious men. So preserve their name, preserve who they were, how, draw their pictures, so
that you have some kind of memory of them, draw their picture so that you can remember them, when
you will remember them, you will remember their good ways, and you will continue to worship Allah
		

			subhanaw taala. So they made their pictures, they do their pictures, over time, what happened, the
pictures turned into statues. And then over time, what happened, people didn't just remember those
statues to be representing some pious people of the past, but rather, they started believing that
those statues, those pictures possessed certain powers. And as a result, they started worshipping
them. This is how Sheikh began. This is how polytheism began. This is the opinion of even our
basketball below our new many MUFA seen have also mentioned this, that this is how ship began. You
see how it began in such an innocent way. hybond didn't come to people and say, frustrated this
		

			stone, make an image of a person and start worshipping it. No. Shavon said you forget these good
people draw their pictures, your children should know who they were. And then what happened. It
wasn't just praising them. It turned into worshipping them. So Allah subhanaw taala sent new early
his son, so he was the first of a soul and he talked to people. He reminded them of what the raid
was. He told them that what they were doing was wrong.
		

			So Lakota also knew him
		

			In a Comey he we sent no to his people
		

			for Kalia calm. So he said, Oh my people or would Allah worship Allah? Because Mariela Camila, you
do not have any God besides Him. And if you do shank, then I fear in the hall for LA Camarda Biomin
or leam. I fear for you the punishment of a great day. What is that great day, the day of judgment,
the hereafter? How is it great, how is a day great because of something major that happens in it. So
a very serious day, a great day, the day of judgment is coming. And I fear for you a very serious a
great punishment on that day. So you better change your ways. Now. Allah He said, al-mulla, the
chiefs, the elders, the elite, who are the mullah, for me, Milan, Hamza mill is to fill something
		

			up. So the manner are the leaders, the people who have power, the people who have money, the people
who influence others, and why are they called Mullah? Because they fill the hearts of people with
all and they gather crowds, they have a presence, you know, if they're somewhere that plays fields
complete and full. And if they're missing from that place, then that place doesn't, you know, feel
that yeah, it's not really a great gathering. So Mullah are the leaders. So the manner the leaders,
they said, which Mala min Comey from his people, meaning from his nation, they said inner indeed we
learn Urraca shortly we see you or no fee in Berlin Air Mubin clear. We see you in clear air. Oh,
		

			no, you're making a clear mistake, you're clearly wrong. Why did they say that? Oh, no, we see you
in clear error. Because you are telling us to do something that contradicts the ways of the entire
society. We have been doing this for years. Our fathers, our forefathers, they used to worship these
idols. And here you are telling us today that we should abandon them, and that we should worship
only Allah. What are you talking about? In our opinion, you are clearly wrong. And many times it
happens that when a person says something, which is from the deen, because it is different, people
are not willing to accept it. They say you are wrong, just because what he's saying is something
		

			that they've never heard of before. Like, for instance, there could be something of the dean, which
we have never heard of before. But just because we have never heard of it before. It doesn't mean
that it is definitely wrong. Like, for instance, yesterday, I mentioned to you the Hadith, in which
we learned that Allah subhanaw taala created a certain thing on a certain day, for many of us, this
Hadees must have been very new. But just because it is new, I've never heard of it before. Doesn't
mean it's inauthentic doesn't mean we call it a weak nourishing, okay? So remember, always accept
whatever someone's telling you with an open heart. Look at what they're telling you look at the
		

			evidence that they're presenting. Why are they saying what they're saying? What's the reason? What's
the logic? What's the benefit? What's the harm? Know how, listen, he doesn't just come and tell
them? Or people stop this idol worship only worship Allah? No, he tells him very logically worship
Allah, because he is your only he is your only God. Right? And if you don't worship Him, then what's
going to happen? What's going to happen if you don't worship him? He warned them. What was that?
What was that quickly respond to punishment, have a great day. So it was a very logical Dawa. But
the people said, we see you in clear error, and sort of the Puffin io 32. Allah subhanaw taala tells
		

			us about the people who are misguided. What do they say about those who are guided, those who follow
Allah subhanaw taala and his messengers were Eva Oh, whom CalU in her hula illovo alone. And when
they see them, they say, Verily, these people are indeed astray.
		

			They're lost. They don't know what they're doing, or they're clearly wrong. And many times it
happens that when a person follows the dean, people say, you're doing this wrong, you're doing this
wrong, you're doing this wrong. You shouldn't be doing this because then you will suffer in such and
such way. You shouldn't be doing this because then you'll suffer in such and such way.
		

			Many times it happens that when you're following the dean, you're following a particular command. It
is difficult, it comes with its own challenges, but where their challenges are ultimately, they're
ultimately benefits. Right? And the benefit is all
		

			With greater than the challenge, right? Remember this about every command of Allah subhanaw taala. I
remember when I started wearing niqab once I was at school and my teacher he said to me, don't you
think it makes it difficult to communicate with other people with this face whale?
		

			And I said, yes sometimes.
		

			And he's like, Okay,
		

			I accepted the fact that yes, sometimes it is difficult to communicate because you are my teacher,
you can't see my face, right? It is difficult to teach someone and when you when you cannot see
their facial expressions, it is difficult. However, at the same time, there are benefits that
outweigh the challenges, right? But what happens is that people whose goal is the dunya What do they
want worldly benefits, right? They don't want to give up anything for the sake of the agora. Whereas
the thing is that everything of this dunya anything that you want to gain there is always a plus
side to it and a negative side to it. Right where it brings you benefit it's always challenging at
		

			the same time everything you want food okay you go get food but you have to spend so much money
should you stop buying food because you have to spend money
		

			Yeah, no, should you stop going outside because it's called know what you have to do you have to do
and with that there's difficulty as well but there is a difference in how you look at it some people
they only look at the negatives they only look at the negatives and other people to say okay it's
difficult but in the long run this is beneficial inshallah there's going to be held so they said in
Ireland Iraq a few Bala Mubin we see you in clear air kala He said your call me all my people. Laser
it is not be with me Ebola don't any misguidance all my people. I'm not misguided. Because I'm not
saying this out of my own self what a kidney but I Rasul on a messenger men from a lot below al
		

			Amin, Lord of the Worlds, I am not making all of this up. I am a messenger from the Lord of the
Worlds if I'm conveying anything to you. It's because Allah is the one who told me and if Allah is
telling us something, then that's not misguidance that's not error. That is guidance in the long
run. It will definitely benefit or believable, I convey to you from bear lamb line W What does W
mean? To convey? I convey to you reselect messages plural of reseller from the root letters last
seen lamb. What does reseller mean? A message meaning something that is conveyed to the other and
from the same root is the word Rasul. So why do you think Rasool is called Rasul?
		

			Because he conveys a message, all right, a messenger of Allah, like, for example, Mohamed salah,
Lourdes and of new Highness and they're called Russell Rasul. And the angels are also called Rasul.
Why
		

			why do you think the angels are called rustled?
		

			Because the angels what do they do? They also convey the message of Allah. Right? So Oberlin welcome
rissalah to Robbie, he said, I convey to you the messages of my Lord will unser who and I am well
wishing, I wish good, I am sincere love come to you. Meaning if I'm telling you something, it's
because I want the best for you. I'm not telling you to worship Allah alone. I'm not telling you to
leave your idols because I want something bad for you. No, I want good for you. This is why I tell
you to worship Allah alone. This is why I tell you to leave your idols. What unser hula comb. What
are Alonzo and I know mean Allah from Allah mad that which letter on the moon you do not know. So
		

			there are three things mentioned in this ayah that first of all, I am just conveying the messages to
you. I'm not making it up. This is not my thinking. My opinion. No, this is a message sent to you
from your Lord.
		

			Secondly, I want the best for you. I want good for you. I don't want you to suffer. This is why I am
telling you, I really wish well for you. And thirdly, I'm telling you all of this based on what
knowledge knowledge that Allah has given me. And you don't know that knowledge. This is why you need
to be informed. This is why you need to be told because you are in ignorance right now. And if a
person is left in his ignorance, then you will suffer. Many times it happens that you're doing
something and you feel
		

			You know that you're doing it perfectly right?
		

			But then somebody else tells you no, no, you're doing this wrong. You're doing this wrong. Like, for
example, if you're trying to do exercise, right, and you're watching the DVD, right, and you're
trying to exercise following every step, but you may be doing it completely wrong. Right? For
instance, that tells you to go down on your, you know, hands and your feet, and you're going down on
your knees first, and then on your hands and feet, it says that your back has to be straight and
your back is not straight. Why? Because you can't see your back.
		

			Right? It says that you have to be on your, let's say, on your right hand on your right foot. And
you have to lift up your left foot and your left arm, and you have to be completely straight. And
you might think you're straight, but you're not actually straight. Who can see if you're straight or
not who somebody else. All right. This is why it's very important that when you start exercising,
somebody should guide you. Because you could be spending that entire hour exercising incorrectly,
and getting no benefit out of that whole hour. And in fact, you could be harming yourself more than
benefiting yourself. Right? So somebody needs to tell you, based on their knowledge, this has
		

			happened with me multiple times, multiple times, like I think I'm doing perfectly fine. And then
what happens? Somebody tells me that no, no. And then they show me what I'm doing. And it's almost
funny, right? That I think I'm doing it perfectly fine. But in reality, you're not doing it right,
because you can't see yourself. So no Hyundai Santa, he conveyed the Messages to them. And in this
aisle, we learned about three characteristics of a diary, three characteristics of a diary, what's
the first characteristic he conveys? He's just a carrier, someone who delivers the message. So when
we also pass on the message of Allah subhanaw taala, to someone, always remember who we are, we're
		

			just conveying our job is to convey our job is not to force people to accept and don't think
yourself as very great if people listen to you. Because in reality, who are they listening to Allah,
they're accepting Allah's message, not your speech, because your speech means nothing. Your speech,
you as a person are nothing, you are just a carrier.
		

			All right. Secondly, well wishing and sincere to the people, be honest to them, wish well for them
want the best for them. And when you will want the best for them, then you will be able to convey in
a good way, in a way that will affect them. Many times it happens that we're telling someone to do
something and it's perfectly right. But we say in such a condescending way, that people, they feel
insecure, they feel threatened and they become defensive. They don't want to listen at all. They
don't want to listen, but if we tell them in a nice way, we really want them you know, want the best
for them, that inshallah it will have a very good effect. Right? Like, for example, when a person is
		

			praying salah.
		

			Right? Can somebody pass right in front of them? Are they allowed?
		

			Are they allowed? Know why? Because that's what my grandmother said.
		

			That's what this Auntie said at the masjid that you're not supposed to pass in front of someone
who's praying. Because the Prophet sallallahu sallam said, If any one of you knew, if you knew the
sin of passing in front of someone who's praying, you would wait for 40 years, you would stop and
wait for 40 years before you dare to pass in front of them. If you realized how serious of a sin it
was, how great of a sin it was
		

			body, or these Makati. So this is a sin. Now you're, let's say praying in the masjid and somebody
all of a sudden passes in front of you and you weren't able to stop them. One is that you say?
Imagine the sin that this person has on their shoulders now. Stop it Allah. And you're like this
person is so evil. They don't even have this decency discourtesy that if someone's praying, they
shouldn't pass in front of them. And you just give them a cold shoulder and you're like, ignorant
person and next time you are around them, you rude to them. And you tell them by the way, you
shouldn't be passing in front of others. This is one way and the other is that you feel bad for
		

			them. That they made such a big mistake. Perhaps they didn't know that it's a sin to pass in front
of someone who is praying. So when you will feel for them, what will you do? You will go to them and
talk to them nicely. And when you will talk to them nicely, and you will tell them with some
evidence that insha Allah they will also listen. The other guy was
		

			at the masjid and somebody, I saw them passing in front of someone. So I was talking to them. And I
said, Dear sister, can I please tell you one thing? Please don't mind? She said, Yes, sure. So I
said that, you know, just today only we learned this hadith that it's not correct to pass in front
of someone who's praying. And I saw you doing that. And I told him the Hadith that if one of you
knew the sin of passing in front of the other, who's praying that he would wait for 40 years? And
she said, I had absolutely no idea I was in a rush. And I went quickly. And I didn't know this was a
serious sin. She didn't feel threatened nothing, why? Because of the way that I spoke to her.
		

			If somebody is praying like that, if you can figure out an alternate route, adopt that and if you
cannot figure out an alternate route, if you have a bag or something, then put it in front of them.
So that you can pass you know you place a sutra and then you go and if the distance is a lot, like
for example, the place that they need to pray, okay and there is some space in front of that, then
you can pass from there, even though there is no sutra, but basically you should not pass between
them and the place of their sector, after the place of there such that you can pass but before that,
no, you can't pass from there. So anyway, no, hulless Anam he wished well for his people, unser
		

			hulak of the Prophet sallallahu sallam said, religion is honestly half our deen is all about well
wishing, being honest, wanting the best for others, the prophets of Allah said and what did he said
another occasion that none of you can truly believe? Until he loves his brother, what he loves for
himself. What is that? No see? Right? So the prophets have a lot of them said a dean on Naseeha. The
people said to whom he said to Allah, and his book and his messenger and to the leaders of the
Muslims and their common folk, meaning to all people, you have to have well wishing for them, you
have to want the best for them. I know one of the companions, Jared bin Abdullah, when he became
		

			Muslim, he made a bear a pledge of allegiance with the prophets of Lourdes. And he gave him the
pledge of allegiance or promise. And he promised him over three things. Firstly, that he would pray,
secondly, that he would give Zakah and thirdly, that he would have no say, for every Muslim.
		

			So what happened one day did even Abdullah, he went to buy a horse. So he bought a horse. And he
paid the men one day at home, because that's the price that was asked. So he gave him one day. So
did even Abdullah he took the horse and he rode the horse, but when he wrote the horses like, this
is worth more than a day at home.
		

			If you were in a position like that, what would you say? Yay, saved so much money got such a good
deal. He went back to that guy. And he said this is worth more than a good home. He gave him more
money. Well wishing honest, truthful, sincere.
		

			And then he went rode the horse again. He's like, still come on. This is better than five their
Hummer tender and 50 didn't How much ever he had given him, he went back and give him more money.
And he kept doing this until he had given the man 100 to 200. Durham's why? Because he was sincere
to him. What unser hula calm, know how they Salam said, I want the best for you. This is why I'm
telling you, I don't want you to suffer. I don't want you to suffer, I want the best for you. And
remember that anytime a person is advising us, whether it is that they're telling us to pray, or
they're telling us to pray property, or they're telling us to sit properly in class, or they're
		

			telling us to make sure that we're writing our notes. They're reminding us that we should pay
attention. Don't think that they're stalking you. They're harassing you. They're making your life
miserable, and they're poking their nose into your business. They should just leave you alone. No.
		

			Why would someone stand for an hour? Why would they keep walking and not just sit and relax? Why
would they do that?
		

			Don't you think it would be easy for our dear group in charges to just sit down in class and take
their notes and sit as you're sitting comfortably? Wouldn't it be easy for them to do that? Yeah. So
why do you think they're standing? And they're walking back and front and then checking constantly
and helping you and reminding you why? Because they hate you? Is this why they're doing it? Because
they've got nothing better to do. They just like to poke into other people's business and see what
they're writing. Yeah. No, because they want the best for you. They want that if you're spending
your time and money here, you actually take advantage of it. If they remind you to do your lesson.
		

			Is it because they love to harass you know, they want that you should know your lesson. You're
spending your weekend
		

			Studying the Quran, when in your life again, will you get this opportunity? Allahu RLM, you might
never get this opportunity again. If your group in charge calls you at home and tells you, okay, now
you can do your lesson. Now you can say your lesson to me, we should think that now they're not even
leaving me at my house. She chases me at all day, now she chases me at home. She wants the best for
you.
		

			Honestly, she could be spending that time. You know, taking it easy going out with her friends
staying at home with her kids, having a nice easy conversation with her friends. But she's instead
choosing to call you cheese instead choosing to call you.
		

			So if someone is reminding us to do something good, remember that they want the best for us. And if
we ever remind someone, then we should also remember that we want the best for them. One is to seek
other people's faults. See, they have this fault and this fault and this fault. They made this
mistake and this mistake and this mistake, and the other is through making these mistakes, how can I
help them? How can I guide them?
		

			Many times it happens that when we wish well for other people that Allah also grants his blessings.
Then he also shows goodness to us. All right, so he said what unser hula come, I want the best for
you. I don't want bad for you. We're unser hula calm. We're Arla woman Allah He mana Tara moon. And
if I'm telling you something, I'm not making it up. I'm telling you, whatever I'm saying based on
knowledge. So remember, whenever we're conveying something, make sure that it's based on some random
some evidence.
		

			He said our job to do did what and are gypped? Don't you wonder? Meaning? Are you surprised? Are you
amazed? Why do you find it so strange? Why are you surprised? And Gen Con that it came to you the
Quran a reminder Mirabai come from your Lord. Why are you surprised that a reminder has come to you
from Allah, Allah wa Julene on a man men come from you. Because they can understand how Allah could
send a human messenger. So know how to Salam is telling them, You don't need to be surprised that
Allah has sent a message to you through a human messenger. It's not a big deal. Because at the end
of the day, you shouldn't be looking at who is conveying, you should be looking at what they are
		

			saying. So no harness and what was it that he was conveying to them leaving their outcome, so that
he warns you? While he thought taco and if you listen to him, so you adopt the core, meaning you
save yourself, you become righteous? Well, I love him and so that you to her moon, you are shown
mercy. Many times it happens that we don't want to listen to someone just because we don't like
them. Her again, again, that same person, my mom again, my dad, again, my older sister, again, my
sister in law, again, my mother in law, again, I don't like these people, so I don't want to listen
to them. No, go beyond them. Go beyond them. Because remember, that you can learn something good,
		

			even from little children.
		

			Right? We can learn good things, even from people who may be very evil. Otherwise, you remember that
story of a boy who died of Ebola,
		

			when he had been appointed to guard the wealth, the Southern Company, and at night, a thief game
came three times what remember? And then he caught him, I'm going to take you to the profit, total
loss. And that's it. He said, I will tell you something, I will teach you something. If you recite
Isaac could see every day at night, then Chethan won't bother you. Who was that person I will show
up on. So imagine shaitan is teaching him say I could see at night and you will be safe. You can
learn a good thing even from shaking.
		

			Seriously.
		

			So don't look at who is saying we should be concerned about that. Because the person who is
conveying does have an impact on the message clearly. But go beyond that. Always look at what is
being said, What is he saying? What's in it for me? How can I benefit?
		

			So new hires and I'm sending these people the same thing? Then why are you surprised that Allah sent
to human messenger? What's the big deal? Think about it. If I'm conveying to you, I'm warning you.
And if you listen to me, you will be able to save yourselves and you will be shown mercy. Allah will
show mercy to you forget the Boo, but they didn't listen. They rejected Him for angina who so we
saved him one Lavina and those people who Maho with him, meaning those people who are with him. In
other words, those people who listen to him believed in him, Allah
		

			How to save those people how fill folk in the ship with a lacuna, and We drowned Alladhina those
people who cut there will be Tina, who rejected our signs our verses in the home indeed they can who
they were calm when people are mean ones blind or mean is a chlorella are immune.
		

			So they were a people who are blind, literally physically they were going, No, they were blind to
the truth. Because they just got lost in the fact that how could there be a human messenger, we
can't accept what he's saying. And they were blind to the message that he was giving.
		

			And this is a problem with bias that when we become biased toward someone, then we don't see the
goodness in them, then we don't see the good that they have to offer. Because we just generalize and
we write them off immediately. We're like, No, this person, no good in them. So they became blind.
And when they became blind like this, they were deprived at the end. The people of new harness Anna,
they were preached for how long? 950 years. In order to know we learned about how know her lesson
constantly reminded them through different different ways openly, secretly, publicly privately,
loudly softly in different styles different ways. But the people didn't listen so eventually what
		

			happened? Allah commanded knew her listen to build a ship and when he was making the ship that
people would pass by laugh at him mock at him, what is this crazy man doing now? And what happened?
The Flood came water from above water from below and all those people drowned and the only ones who
survived were who those who believed in new Hurley's
