Taimiyyah Zubair – Taleem al Quran 2012 – P09 093B Tafsir Al-Araf 103-114

00:00:00 --> 00:00:06

			Lesson number 93 pseudo or off I am number 103 to 137.
		

00:00:07 --> 00:00:27

			So Mbarara ethna then we sent mimbar the hem from after them, Musa Musa alayhis salam, Biya Tina
with our signs do who, in our fit or owner to fit our own? We're mela he he and his elite his
chiefs.
		

00:00:28 --> 00:01:23

			Film of our thumb embody Musa after them. We sent Musar Ali salam after who, after the messengers
about whom we learned in the previous verses at the beginning of the surah. We learned about who are
the money Salam. After that we learned about the story of new early Salam, who Alayhis Salam slaley
early Salam LULC or Alayhis Salam sure I've read his salon, after all these messengers and many
more, Allah sent Musa alayhis salam Musa Mina Imran Are you Salam, he was the greatest prophet sent
to the Bani Israel you he was a greatest prophet sent to the Bani Israel. And Allah sent him with FB
a attina to who Illa filler ona Wehmiller E. I, which miracles did Musar listen, I'm bringing to fit
		

00:01:23 --> 00:02:12

			our own, which miracles did he show him? Mainly, it was the staff that turned into a snake. And also
his hand which when he pulled out, it would turn extremely white and bright shining. So these two
miracles, Allah sent him with them to fit our own and his Mala. fit our own was the title of
Egyptian kings. Long, long, long time ago, how long ago it is at approximately 1200 BC, is when Finn
Irwin was. So the kings of that civilization their title was for their own. This is similar to how
these days kings are rather the leader. He's called president, okay, depending on the system, but we
see that there are different titles of sovereigns across various civilizations. So if Iran remember
		

00:02:12 --> 00:02:48

			was not the name of that King, it was his title. And Allah subhanaw taala sent Musa to fit our own
one minute II Mela, who are the mullah, you must know this word really well, by now, the leaders
achieves the elite of the society. Now, some people might find this very strange, that how come the
messenger is being sent to the leaders? Why not the common folk? Why not the common people? The
thing is that every time a messenger came, his message was for the entire nation, the leaders and
the common people, the rich and the poor.
		

00:02:49 --> 00:03:40

			However, the messengers first approached the leaders, those who were influential. Why, like the
Prophet sallallahu Sallam also, when he came as a messenger, who did he speak to first the Quraysh?
That was the leading tribe of that time. All right, why the leaders why the influential people,
because mostly, the case is that common people, the layman, they follow who, their leaders, they
generally don't use their mind as much, whatever their leaders say, they follow them, whatever their
leaders believe in, that is what they do. And these days, also we see this, that if there's a person
who's influential, if they get their hairstyle in a particular way, other people will follow them
		

00:03:40 --> 00:04:24

			blindly. Right? Which is why it's amazing how sometimes if you go to a hairdressers, then what do
you see over there magazines and magazines and people flipping through them? And then saying, Okay,
I want my hairstyle to be like this, and this person would like that person who I saw on the
television. All right. Why? Because people look up to those who are wealthier than them more
powerful than them. And also, the sad reality is that the common people, they are oppressed,
oppressed, I don't mean in the physical sense, but in the intellectual sense that they don't use
their own mind. They just agree generally, with who, with whatever others around them are telling
		

00:04:24 --> 00:04:59

			them with whatever their elders are telling them. So because of this reason, the prophets of Allah,
they first approached the leaders, the message was primarily conveyed to them, because if they would
believe if they would understand naturally what would happen the rest of the people would also
follow right? So elaphiti around a woman or II however, what happened for one of them will be her.
So they did rollin with it. They committed injustice with it with what would the is that the
miracles the clear proves that Musa Arneson presented Fedora
		

00:05:00 --> 00:05:37

			Owen and his Mala, they did one with them. What is one with something to not give it? Its due?
Right? So a miracle a proof and evidence when it is clear, what is it right that it should be
rejected? What is its right that it should be accepted? It should be acknowledged. But what was the
reaction of in our own in his people, they did not believe in Musala Salah in the miracles that he
showed, rather, they called it magic. This was little this was injustice with the miracles that
Mozart s&m showed.
		

00:05:38 --> 00:06:21

			And we see that this wasn't just the reaction of our own in his Mala. Rather, across different
civilizations. What happened when the prophets came that showed the miracles, the elite, what did
they do? They did. They did learn with the miracles that were showing what happened to the sheikh
Amel, what happened, it was killed, right? The prophets of Alana Saddam also when he showed the
miracle of the splitting of the moon, what was the reaction of the people say hold on will stem it
This is magic. I imagined something so clear. And if people call it magic, instantly, that effect
that it had it's all gone. It's all washed off. So for what will be her, Allah says fondle. So look,
		

00:06:21 --> 00:07:06

			gave her How can I it was our kiba to and the consequence of who will move seething those who spread
mischief. Those who commit for sad, who are most sitting over here for their own and his people.
When they committed facade what was their facade, they rejected the truth. They challenged Musala
salon they competed with the miracles. So what happened at the end, Allah says look at their
consequence, look at how they were picked up and drowned in the sea, how their whole their entire
civilization came to nothing. It was destroyed. Everything of theirs was ruined. Now, Bunny is like
you we learned about them earlier as well. But just a quick recap, use of our lesson when he was in
		

00:07:06 --> 00:07:44

			Egypt. And there's a long story of how he ended up in Egypt. His brothers were jealous of him that
threw him in the well. A caravan came, picked him up, sold him as a slave. He ended up in Egypt. And
he was a slave in somebody's house. And then what happened eventually he was thrown into prison. And
then he interpreted the dreams off two men, one of them he ended up becoming very close to the after
he was free. He was very close to the king. And the king after some years what happened, he saw some
dreams and he was very disturbed by them. So he kept asking people about the interpretation of his
dreams. So the man who was with him he remembered use of Ernestina. So he went back to the prison,
		

00:07:44 --> 00:08:21

			asked use of Artesia about the interpretation of the king's dream, when the King found out that this
man gave this interpretation. He was very impressed. So he spoke to use of escena and then
eventually use for this and I was at free and use of an Asana was made the one in charge over all
the treasures of the land, all the resources of the land. So basically, all the crop, all the
produce, everything was under his supervision. So everything that was harvested use of rice, and I
managed it. So anyway, we see that use of earnest Salam had a lot of power and influence in Egypt.
And eventually when there was drought all across the land, people started coming to Egypt in order
		

00:08:21 --> 00:09:03

			to purchase food, because that's the only place where there was food available. And like that the
brothers of use of early salaam also came to Egypt in order to buy food, and then use about Islam
recognize them back and forth. Eventually, use of early salaams entire family came to Egypt and
lived with him. And Dr. Cooper is obviously his father. He also came now the brothers abuse of
autism who are the children of Dr. Cooper and his son, who were they Bani Israel? All right. At that
time, only a few. But gradually, over the passage of many years, what happened their tribe, it grew
and it grew. And that came to be known as who the bunny is sloth II. So what happened initially in
		

00:09:03 --> 00:09:48

			Egypt, there were very powerful in the sense that they were living with a lot of honor with a lot of
dignity. Why? Because they were the children of use of RSM or they were his cousins. So people of
Egypt gave a lot of respect to them. And this was also because they were on their religion. But
after some time, what happened? The bunny is slightly ill declined in both ways. First of all, in
their religiosity, they became distant and distant from the teachings of the deen and many times it
happens with the people that as they become greedy for this world, they forget their Deen look at
the state of the Muslims that when we want something worldly benefits today, what is it that we are
		

00:09:48 --> 00:09:59

			most willing to give up? It is our deen. We think that it is our deen that is creating difficulties
for us. So what do people do they get rid of their Deen they move away from it so that is what the
Bani Israel
		

00:10:00 --> 00:10:42

			Due to. And secondly, such people also become very corrupt. Because think about it if someone is not
sincere to their Lord, if someone is not true to the religion that they claim to adhere to, you
think they would be true and sincere and honest with the other people around them know, if someone
does not fear Allah, while believing that Allah is watching me. And as a result, they don't pray
five times a day, you think they will be honest with their boss, they won't be. Which is why we see
that. Unfortunately, the state of us Muslims today is very similar. In the worldly sense, we are
losers. And in the religious sense also, we have no fear of God, which is why we have literally
		

00:10:42 --> 00:11:30

			become the worst of the worse. We have become people who know nothing, people who do nothing, people
who just sit on their back on their behinds and waste their lives. This is what we have become
greedy people, selfish people who don't contribute at all far from Allah's mercy, and far from the
friendship of people as well. So this is what happened to the Bani Israel. So what happened? The
people of Egypt had had enough. They had had enough of the Bani Israel, who think of themselves as
very pious, very righteous, but in reality, were a burden on that community. So what did they do?
They enslave the entire tribe. Just imagine how they were so powerful in that nation. And now they
		

00:11:30 --> 00:12:15

			became a burden on that community. And now they were enslaved. Imagine the men are being used as
laborers. The women are being used as laborers and even the children. And they were oppressed so
much that they didn't have any rights. I mean, these days, if you are suffering from discrimination
at workplace, at least you can raise your voice and be heard, right? You can go to some group and
you know, give you a complaint, perhaps something will be done, at least your voice can be heard.
You know, you can get some media attention or anything. But we see that the bunny is slightly ill,
they had no say, No one spoke for them. No one defended them. The people of Egypt hated them, they
		

00:12:15 --> 00:12:48

			wanted to get rid of them. So much so that for their own What had he done, he had enforced this rule
for some time that every male child that is born to the Israelites, he is killed. Imagine an infant
a baby boy, killed, killed killed. So they would go around in the houses of the Israelites. Look for
babies check if they were boys, and if there were boys, they would kill them imagine snatched from
the family perhaps killed in front of their own eyes. Just imagine
		

00:12:49 --> 00:13:42

			what kind of torture this was for the Israelites. And then what happened? There women were enslaved
in the houses being used as maids and servants within the house. So the entire tribe was being
eliminated for all was on a mission to wipe them off, but not wipe them off easily. He was also
using them using them. Now imagine in this state, Allah subhanaw taala had mercy on the bunnies for
you. And what did he do? He sent Musar de Sena to go to fit our own and his Mala call them to the
worship of Allah and also tell them to let the Bani Israel eel go. But what happened fit our own
given who he was he refused to listen to Masada salam for Lola Moby her Allah says funds or K for
		

00:13:42 --> 00:14:38

			Cana Aki but we'll move city in what color Musa and Musa alayhis salam said yeah fit our own ofit
our own in nee indeed I Rasul on a messenger Min from Rob Bella Alameen, Lord of the Worlds Musa
Lisanna when he came to fit our own, he made it very clear to him. He's very clear to the point what
that I have come to you from Allah, Who is the Lord of the worlds and I have come to you to deliver
the message of truth meaning, I am not telling you what I'm telling you out of my own wishes. This
is not my own thinking my own desires. No. This is the message of the Lord of the worlds and I am
his ambassador, healthier going. Happy can from the root letters, her cough cough help, what does
		

00:14:38 --> 00:14:40

			help mean? How?
		

00:14:41 --> 00:14:59

			True Right? Correct. And happy it is on the structure of Ferril like Raheem, all right, and it gives
the meaning of one that is held. One that is true. So happy gone.
		

00:15:00 --> 00:16:02

			gives the meaning of I am happy, meaning Musar listen I'm said, I am the one who is happy, I Allah
upon Allah Akula that I do not say, either Allah upon Allah inlet except Allah help the truth,
meaning, the only thing that is right, that is correct meaning for me is that I do not say about
Allah, anything except that which is the truth. In other words, given that I am Allah's Messenger,
the only thing that befits me the only thing that is correct for me is that I tell you the truth
that I do not fabricate anything, I do not invent anything and then say that Allah is telling you
this. So in other words, he is assuring them of his truthfulness of his honesty. Just like the
		

00:16:02 --> 00:16:53

			previous messengers, what did they do? There were Rasulullah Amin, right? They were now so they were
sincere well wishing to their people, truthful men. So Musa listen I'm also he made it very clear to
fit her own that it Look, I'm not making all of this up. I have been sent by Allah and I will not
invent anything about Allah for the JIT to come. Certainly I have come to you be the unit in with a
tear proof Mirabai come from your Lord. I have brought you a clear evidence what was that tear
evidence? The miracles that he showed for Ozel so send Maria with me Bani Israel eel the children of
Israel eel, meaning I am here to ask you to let the Bani Israel go set them free. Let them be let
		

00:16:53 --> 00:17:31

			them go home on since and now send them where remember that Dr. Cooper is Sam use of medicine and
they were originally from where from Philistine right use about Islam came to Egypt and that is how
his family came to Egypt. Originally they were from where Philistine that was their home. So what
happened Musar esalaam came to tell for their own leave the Bani Israel yield set them free so that
they can go home with me. Let them go back to Philistine because that is their home. Let them go
with me. I'm Sal Marya Bani Israel you.
		

00:17:32 --> 00:18:01

			So what happened? We see over here that there's two messages that Musa Islam primarily brought.
First of all, he called for their own and his Mala to the worship of Allah. And secondly, he came in
order to release the Bani Israel from the oppression of fit our own. Why? Why was it necessary for
the Bani Israel to be released from the oppression of their own? Wasn't it okay, if they were living
as slaves? What's the big deal?
		

00:18:03 --> 00:18:10

			Okay, they weren't able to openly practice their religion. That's correct, yes.
		

00:18:11 --> 00:18:22

			They wouldn't be able to fulfill their responsibility, as the carriers of the message do deliver the
message to the people. You see, the thing is that when people are oppressed,
		

00:18:23 --> 00:18:56

			then they're oppressed in two ways. First of all, in the worldly sense, in the physical sense, that
they don't have any freedom, any freedom to live, how they want to work, how they want, think about
a slave, he doesn't have any freedom as to when he wants to wake up when he wants to sleep, when he
wants to take a day off, right? He has no freedom at all. And along with that, there's also
oppression, there is also oppression how that the person is suffering.
		

00:18:57 --> 00:19:38

			And we see different forms of oppression back then, long time ago, different forms of oppression.
Today also we see their different forms of oppression. Recently, a friend of mine, she ended up in a
really bad car accident, really bad car accident. And she was told by the doctor to take bedrest for
at least four weeks, because the doctor warned her that right now perhaps you don't feel anything,
but within a few days, you will see that your body will ache. So you want to recover faster. So make
sure that you take some rest. So she asked her workplace if she could get time off because given her
situation, but they said okay, if you take this long of a time off, then you're not going to be paid
		

00:19:38 --> 00:19:39

			so we might as well let you go.
		

00:19:40 --> 00:19:59

			She's like, I need the job. If you fire me, how am I going to make money? I have my loans to pay
off. I need the money, support thing. Imagine with all those aches and pains. She was going to work
because she didn't want to lose that work. She didn't want to lose that job. Now this is also a
person is
		

00:20:00 --> 00:20:48

			You know, restricted, their body is aching, but they don't have the freedom to lie down, they don't
have that freedom to rest. Now, this is just one example, imagine where people's lives are
completely controlled. What kind of freedom? Will they have nothing at all. So when they are
oppressed in this way, can they think about anything greater, except for just their money and their
food and their bills? That's all that they will be concerned about. Right? So remember that slavery
also oppresses a person in another way, in a second way, which is mental enslavement. That when
people lose the ability to think rationally, sometimes, to think critically, to use their mind, they
		

00:20:48 --> 00:21:30

			lose that ability, because they're just in that system working like an animal, literally, they're
not using their mind. So when will they have the time to think about bigger questions of life? Like,
why am I here? What is my purpose? How can I please My Lord? What can I do to make him happy? When
will they have the chance to think about those things? These days? Also, what do we see the children
when they're so young school, school, school studies, exams, one grade after the other than college
than work? When do they have time to think about Allah, to think about the hereafter. They don't
have that much time. And if they do, if they're taught about these things, they find it so strange,
		

00:21:30 --> 00:22:18

			because their whole lives are full with things that are so different. So remember that slavery, it
oppresses people in both ways, physical, worldly oppression, and also mental enslavement so that
they are not able to use their mind. So this is why Allah subhanaw taala wanted the Bani Israel to
be set free, so that they can worship Allah. They can worship Allah, they were the children of the
prophets. They were the descendants of who, Ibrahim A salon. So this is why Allah subhanaw taala
sent was artisanal in order to release them from their slavery. Allah He said further on when he
heard that, that Musa al Islam is requesting that Bani Israel should go he said in content if you
		

00:22:18 --> 00:23:04

			were Jetta, you can be I attend with some sign with some miracle. Fat DB her than come with it,
meaning then show it, bring it, show it to me. If you have really brought in miracle, then show it
to me in contact if you are men from a Saudi clean those who are truthful. So if you're on set, if
you are really a messenger, if you're really true, then show me some proof of that. Because I can't
just accept your request like that. I can't just let the entire Bani Israel go just because you're
telling me I have to see if you're really true if you're really a messenger of Allah or not. So what
happened for Allah so He through who Musa Sena from the root letters? I'll call from the letters.
		

00:23:05 --> 00:23:57

			Lamb cough. Lamb cough. Yeah, good. Yeah. So for Eloqua saw who he threw his ASA, what is ASA? Asa
is basically a stick. Okay, but what kind of a stick is it? It's a thick one, thick one. Because
Musa alayhis salam he used his stick for many different reasons when Allah subhanaw taala asked him,
woman Tilka the Yemeni Kea Musa that almost What's that in your hand? Musa al Islam replied, here
are saya This is my OSLA at the Walker. Oh, we have I reclined on it was a who should be her other
one on me. And I bring down leaves from trees for my sheep for my animals, while efe Houma Adebola.
And in it for me, there are many other benefits. So it was a multipurpose. You can say cane, and if
		

00:23:57 --> 00:24:00

			it's a multipurpose one, then it better be strong. Okay.
		

00:24:02 --> 00:24:03

			What's the root of the word also?
		

00:24:07 --> 00:24:15

			I mean, Slavia any other word that comes from this root or inside the are installed. Wow. Any other
word that comes from the same root?
		

00:24:16 --> 00:24:18

			Some word that we have read in the Quran
		

00:24:19 --> 00:24:29

			there Lika Bhima. Also, disobedience. So what do you think the relationship is between disobedience
and a stick?
		

00:24:30 --> 00:24:32

			What's the relationship? Yes.
		

00:24:34 --> 00:25:00

			He has. Disobedience brings a stick. Meaning causes a person to get beaten up. Anyway, I am not
saying that you should do that. I'm just telling you. So for El Paso who smooth surrealism through
his Asafa II that either means then but remember that the word either is Fujairah el so it gives
meaning of all of a sudden instant
		

00:25:00 --> 00:25:46

			Okay, so he threw the stick and instantly within seconds what happened? That stick here it was third
bear no more been. It turned into a clear big giant snake. Thurman is used for a snake that is
really, really big. So you're talking about cute serpent, a gigantic snake, and notice the abandoned
moonbeam movie meaning clear. So when people saw it, they had no doubt that this was a snake. I
mean, it was clearly a snake, and how that it was moving, and it is said that it slithered straight
to fit our own unfit, our own also got scared, which is why we learned that he turned and he fled in
the Quran that we learned about he also got scared. So for elkaar also for either Heath or Burnham
		

00:25:46 --> 00:26:36

			rubine When Hazara and Musa al salaam he pulled out known ze I Nazir to draw out to pull out so he
pulled out yet the who his hand for either then all of a sudden hear it meaning his hand was by law
white shining bear Yeah, but extremely white and shining, glowing Linna within, for those who look
mean all the people who were present in the court of fit around, what happened they were looking at
this snake, you know, slithering towards their own, and the hand of most artists and I'm shining
white. So what happened? Paula, he said Al Miller, who the Chiefs they said men call me for owner,
the mullah who were from the people of their own. So in other words, his close friends, his cabinet,
		

00:26:36 --> 00:27:28

			you can see, okay, the ministers of his nation, those who were in his company at that time those
were sitting with him. So the mullet men call me for their own they said in Heather Ella Sahana
alim, they said Indeed this meaning this guy, this man Musa artisanal he is surely a magician saw
him, and what kind of a magician he is, I leave knowing meaning he knows his magic really well,
because of which he has performed this, you know, great magic before us. So in other words, they
called the miracles what magic now fit our own. Given that he got his request was fulfilled, he
asked mozarella Sam for some proof Masada, Sana, showed the proof. And he also got scared, he was
		

00:27:28 --> 00:28:08

			deeply affected by those miracles. And it's also possible that for their own because of this reason,
he was reflecting on those miracles, and perhaps he was inclined to listening to musasa, we give him
the benefit of the doubt. But this is a problem with surrounding yourself with bad company. What
happened to fit our own, he's watching. He's probably shocked. And all of a sudden, his friends,
what do they tell him? This man is a magician who knows his magic really well. So what happened, the
effect of those miracles on your own, it was instantly washed off instantly it was gone.
		

00:28:09 --> 00:28:42

			Many times it happens that we see something, we hear something and we are affected. You know, it
touches our heart. But what happens somebody sitting next to us, they say something, and that entire
effect is is washed off, they crack a joke, or they pass a negative comment about it. Or they, you
know, raise a question, an objection. And that's it, whatever we were thinking, it's all gone. We're
not affected anymore. See how important it is to surround yourself with the right kind of people.
		

00:28:43 --> 00:29:32

			Because many times it happens that you are using your brain, you are using your mind. And you are a
good person, you have the potential to do a lot of good. But it's the people who are around us that
put bad ideas in our head that influence us in a negative way. So the good that we can do we leave
it and we are encouraged to do that which is bad. And to do that which our heart tells us to not do.
Our heart refuses but what happens? The people around us they're telling us to do it. They're doing
it so we also follow them. So for their own what happened with him, his mother, they said to him in
the head Elesa Hoonah Eileen, and they didn't stop there. They said you really do he just wants
		

00:29:32 --> 00:29:52

			meaning most artists and um he just wants a you read your comb that he drives you out mean ugly come
from your land. Musa has come to drive all of us out of our land. Strange. When was our lesson on
Kim? He said, some money's fine with me. We'll go we'll leave you. We'll go home.
		

00:29:53 --> 00:29:59

			And what are the mullah of Iran saying that Musa has come to take over us
		

00:30:00 --> 00:30:50

			He has come to drive us out of our homes and take over our lands, our properties and take over our
entire civilization. That is what he wants. Very strange, because Musa Hassan came with a completely
different message. But this is what happens. People who don't want to accept the truth, then what do
they do? They twist and misrepresent the words that are sent to them as though they're deliberately
misunderstanding the message that was given to them. And that's exactly what the mullah have around
it. They said you read a nuclear command of the comb. So for your own, he said further, so what is
that? That maroon you will order? So for your own instead of using his mind over here, what does he
		

00:30:50 --> 00:31:24

			say to his Mullah? That what do you tell me? Then what do you suggest? What should I do with Musa?
Should I listen to him? Should I let the Bani Israel go? Or should I kill him? What should I do for
my that Moodle? What do you say? Now we see a number of things over here. First of all, we see how
they attack Musa alayhis salam, his character, he came as the messenger of the Lord of the Worlds.
But what did they say about him? He is a magician. He has some hidden agenda.
		

00:31:26 --> 00:32:16

			And many times people say such things about the carriers of truth. Many times people say such things
about such people, that they have some hidden agenda, they just want to become rich, or they want to
gain power. They want to do this, and they're just using the religion. They're just using their
religion. Who are we to judge the intentions of other people, we have no right at all, to attack
other people, their character, their personality, and call them liars. And call them magicians or
call them pretenders or whatever. Because this has become very common today. Even people of
knowledge, even scholars of Islam, they are accused of such things. We don't show respect to anybody
		

00:32:16 --> 00:33:04

			today. Unfortunately, we think that we have the right to attack anyone and say anything about them,
whether it's an individual or an organization, or anybody, but we remember have no right to judge
the intentions of another person. And we have no right to accuse them of some hidden agenda unless
we have some solid proof, some solid evidence. So this is something that fit our own in his mullet.
Did they attack Messiah Sam's character? He's not a messenger, rather, he is a magician. And then
what did they do? They used fear tactics in order to, you know, gain in order to have people agree
with them. So they said he has come in order to expel you from your lands he's gonna take over. So
		

00:33:04 --> 00:33:53

			let's not listen to him. We have to do something about him. So instantly what happened? Musa alayhis
salam was now viewed as an enemy. All right, he came as a messenger of Allah requesting for our own
please let the Bani Israel go simple request. But what happened? He was presented as a villain. He
was presented as someone who was very evil, someone who had come to take over. They were using fear
tactics in order to have other people agree with them. So what happened for their own? He asked his
mother that what do you tell me to do? What should I do with Musa Kalu? They said meaning the
Mueller they said of J differ him the word of J is from the root letters, Ra Jeem, Hamza ra Jeem,
		

00:33:53 --> 00:34:22

			Hamza Raj, Raj is to defer to delay some matter. So for example, you have to deal with someone you
have to give a response to someone and what do you do you defer, why? Because you need time to think
about it, or you need to do some work before you can give them an answer. So you defer, and oh gee,
this is a combination of aurojit. And who, so basically, the word is Oh, who everybody said.
		

00:34:24 --> 00:34:27

			Now, what's easier to say? Oh gee, who are LG?
		

00:34:28 --> 00:34:53

			LG is much easier. So many times in the Arabic language this happens that the spellings of a word
should be different. Okay, but because they're so difficult to pronounce the Arabs what was their
habit? That they would just change the word. So for example, the very common word Kala, what is it
actually? Koala? Koala? Because what's the root
		

00:34:54 --> 00:34:59

			cause of wild lamb So technically, it should be koala. Bear, there's like you know what, forget it
color.
		

00:35:00 --> 00:35:46

			It's much easier. So just like that LG who turns into of G, okay? So they said RJ defer the matter
of Musa RNA Salam meaning don't take any action against him yet don't tell him that you're not going
to let the Bani Israel go and don't even say that okay, I'll let the Bani Israel go just hold on for
some time. Defer his matter for some time. I'm Jake Wah hoo and his brother who was his brother
huddled on the center because most artists and him didn't come along. He came with his brother have
an eraser. And they said, meanwhile, while you are deferring him what you should do is that we're
also and send fi in and mme in the cities her Shireen gatherers, muda is a plural off. What do you
		

00:35:46 --> 00:36:27

			think? Medina good muda in cities, Medina city, right. So send in the cities across the civilization
who hash it in gathers Lord of hashes, hashing raw hash means together to collect sand across the
cities gathers, meaning people who will go and bring who you do occur, they will come to you be
cuddly, with every sir hidden magician, or Lehman knowing. So send gatherers in the cities who will
go and bring back every learned magician.
		

00:36:28 --> 00:36:47

			So what is he trying to do over here? Or other? What are they suggesting over here, that we will
also call our great magicians and compete with Musa Shah to the people that what Musa is showing is
not a miracle, it's not something special. It's just magic, just like the magic that so many other
magicians perform.
		

00:36:48 --> 00:37:35

			So what happened then this was done what Jaya and he came a Sahara to the magicians, all the
magicians they came to who fit our owner to fit our own. Obviously, the king is calling them and
that King was no ordinary king. He was one who had a lot of power. And he was also believed to be
their God. He claimed to be God. So people actually worshipped him amongst many other gods that they
worship. So for our own was calling the magicians so obviously, the magicians came they all came to
fit our own. And when they came Kalu they said in indeed Lenna for us the agilon Surely some wage
some reward in if could now we were national we have Holly been the victors, a lolly been Florida
		

00:37:35 --> 00:38:22

			law lib, one who has a lot of meaning one who gains dominance over the other meaning one who defeats
the other hand has power over him. So in other words, the magicians are saying that often our own if
we win against Musa if we defeat his magic, they're calling the miracles magic. They say if we
defeat his magic, then will we get some reward from you? This is very interesting. Because Musa and
escena when Allah subhanaw taala called him when Allah told him to go to Rome Musar listen, I'm
didn't say so what's in it for me? What will I get in return? Muhammad Sallallahu wasallam when he
was made the messenger, did he make such a demand from Allah? That what's in it for me? What will I
		

00:38:22 --> 00:38:41

			get in return for all of this that you're asking me to do? No. But we see that the magicians What
did they do? The first thing they asked for their own? What do we get if we win? What do we get?
When we are coming over here? What do you promise us in return?
		

00:38:43 --> 00:39:28

			You see, there is a difference between people who work for Allah, and who work for worldly reasons.
For in order to get benefits of this world in order to get material benefits. The one who works for
Allah. He never says what's in it for me, what do I get in return? He never sets some benefit as a
condition for his services. Never ever. He doesn't say you give me this much money, only then I will
work for you. You give me this much money, only then I will do this. He doesn't set the money as a
condition.
		

00:39:29 --> 00:39:59

			Under Obama, they have also said this, that even if a person is teaching the Quran, they can never
they should not set this as a condition. You better give me $2,000 Or else I'm not doing this. Not
1800 not 1500 2000. That's the bare minimum. If he sets that as a condition. And if his request is
not fulfilled, and based on that, he says fine. I'm not going to do it. Then you know what? There's
a problem over there. There's a problem over there.
		

00:40:00 --> 00:40:44

			This doesn't mean that a person should not expect any kind of material gain in return for his
services, that is perfectly fine. Because where people do so many other kinds of work, if a person
is choosing to work for the dean, and in return, he is getting some material benefit, why not you
get two advantages over there. But remember that the money should not be the focus, it should never
be a condition. It's always a side benefit. The one who works for Allah, their goal is what I want
to do something for the sake of Allah for the religion of Allah Alhamdulillah, I'm getting this
chance I'm getting this opportunity. That's their main goal. And what happens, any benefit that they
		

00:40:44 --> 00:41:14

			gain, that is just a side benefit, that's not the focus. And when they work like this, believe me,
the little that they make, also, Allah subhanaw taala places so much blessing in that, so much
blessing in that, that it's amazing. Recently, somebody was telling me that, you know, people who
made $25,000 salary, they were asked that if you made double the money, do you think you'd be
happier, and they said, Of course, it would be very happy.
		

00:41:15 --> 00:42:04

			And what happened then, after some time, they were basically testing a group of people, their
salaries were increased, doubled. 50,000. And when they checked their happiness levels, they noticed
that their happiness increased only by 9%. Only by 9%, they thought their happiness would be
doubled. It would be 100% if they double their salary, but you know what, it didn't make them
happier. Why? Because what makes you happy is contentment, it's not increase in material things.
That's not what makes you happy. What makes you happy is contentment. And what is it that can really
give you contentment in your heart. When you're working for Allah. When you're serving the deen of
		

00:42:04 --> 00:42:49

			Allah, when you're spending in the way of Allah, whether it is as a teacher or a student, or a
volunteer in whatever way, many times it will happen with a person, that they have two options,
either work somewhere where the benefit is for the dean, or work somewhere else where they will make
a lot of money. And now there's, for instance, a person is, you know, doing an office job, very
similar, in one place a salary would be very less, why because it's for an Islamic cause. And it is
sad, it is unfortunate that in many Islamic organizations, we see that they're very tight on money.
It's not because they are consuming all the money themselves. It's because that's how it is, like,
		

00:42:49 --> 00:43:35

			for instance, in this place that you're coming, how much fees is expected of you, if you were taking
a university course, tell me how much money would you be paying much more, right. And then on top of
that, if there are multiple people from the same family, or for example, there's, you know, people
are taking different courses, then again, there's reductions, and so on and so forth. So think about
it, the staff who will work here, you can't expect that they'll be making $30,000 $80,000 $50,000
It's not possible. Right? Now, a person, their mission, their goal, their desire is to work for
Allah serve the religion of Allah. All right. And because of this reason, they choose to work in
		

00:43:35 --> 00:44:21

			such a place that the money they're making is very little. And if they were to do the same work
elsewhere, they will be making a whole lot of money, you know, double triple. Is that true? Yes,
very true. In fact, you go to any Islamic organization, that's the case, right? Now, the person who
sacrifices their worldly, you know, benefits and they choose to work for Allah and they're content
with less. This is what Allah subhanaw taala likes. This is what is wanted from us, that we don't
set this as conditioning better give me this much money, or else I'm not doing this. You know what,
I can work somewhere else. And when a person works like this, then they will get contentment in
		

00:44:21 --> 00:44:37

			their heart. Most artists and I didn't even ask what's in it for me, the magicians they came the
first thing they asked in Elena agilan, will we get some money for this? Will we get some benefit in
return? If we are winners?
		

00:44:38 --> 00:45:00

			Remember that when the Prophet salallahu Salam, when he went to Medina, and he wanted to purchase
the land for the Masjid. He sent word to the owners of that land and he said, tell us the price for
this so that we can pay you for it. They said no, we only expect its payment from a
		

00:45:00 --> 00:45:46

			Allah subhanaw taala meaning we don't want anything from you. And the fact is that when a person is
working for the cause of Allah, then really, when they get paid for the money, they don't think that
this money is a payment for my efforts. No, they don't view it like that. They're expecting reward
from WHO? Allah subhanaw taala. So when they're expecting a reward from Allah, their focus does not
become the money. This is why they will do their work. Even if it's outside of the hours, they will
do their work, even if it is a snow day, they will do their work, even if they're called at a very
odd hour of the night or the day they will do their work. Why? Because they're not working for the
		

00:45:46 --> 00:46:34

			paycheck. What are they working for? Who are they working for? Allah, where do they want their
reward, ultimate reward in the Hereafter, they want it from Allah. But Allah subhanaw taala he's
very generous, he just tests a person for some time. And then what happens, he rewards them
abundantly. He rewards him abundantly, more than the person can ever imagine. More than they can
ever, ever dream off, their needs are fulfilled in a way that they are amazed and the people around
them are amazed and shocked. Why? Because then their paycheck is not supporting them. It is Allah
who is supporting them. Because in some sort of law, young so if you help Allah, Allah will help
		

00:46:34 --> 00:47:25

			you. If you go out in the way of Allah, Allah will take care of you. But you have to go out, you
have to take the first step, you have to sacrifice and it's a very, very big sacrifice, very big
sacrifice. Whether it is that a person is signing up for a course for which they have to pay monthly
fees, or they are giving up their better paying job for a different one for the sake of Allah. It is
a big sacrifice. But remember, those who work for Allah, Allah does not does not abandon them. He's
the one who takes care of them. There's a quote that I read, and it really motivates me every day,
come work for the Lord. The hours are long, the pay is low. But the retirement benefits out of this
		

00:47:25 --> 00:47:26

			world.
		

00:47:28 --> 00:47:29

			Isn't that true?
		

00:47:30 --> 00:47:34

			Retirement benefits are out of this world literally.
		

00:47:35 --> 00:48:07

			But what do we want? I pay you more money. Why? Because we want to spend freely. But the thing is
that you have to sacrifice somewhere right? So a believer his goal, the one who wants Janna his goal
is not the things of this dunya I want more money so I can get that bag and I can get those shoes
and I can you know travel easily and I can go here and I can buy that car. No, that's not their
goal. They say Hold on, wait for some time in sha Allah in the hereafter. Yes.
		

00:48:08 --> 00:48:22

			Yes, well Lavina Jaya hadoo fina Luna the unknown sabula Anna those who strive in our way, we will
guide them to our ways meaning Allah subhanaw taala will lead them He will take care of them he will
show them what to do. Where to go.
		

00:48:23 --> 00:49:09

			So anyway, this was a bit of a tangent but a necessary one. So we're just the huddle to fit our own
