00:00:00 --> 00:00:05
			Lesson number 122 Surah Yusuf is number one to 18.
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:56
			So that you serve, as is evident by the name of the surah is about the story of Yusuf Ali, his
Sudan. And so that you serve is a very unique surah. It is a Surah that talks about the story of use
of earliest salaam only. We learned solitude, we learnt sort of units, and we did learn about the
stories of these prophets in those sutras. But along with those stories, other stories were also
mentioned. But we'll see that sort of use of is all about the story of use of earliest salah. And
this is the only place in the Quran where use of SLM story is mentioned. The story of who they are
and s&m, for example, is mentioned more than one time in the Quran in surah, truth and also
		
00:00:56 --> 00:01:32
			elsewhere. The story of Musa alayhis salam is mentioned in the Quran many, many times from different
angles. But remember that all those accounts are very short. This account of use of our listener is
firstly the only place where the story is mentioned. And secondly, it is in detail also, sort of
Yusuf was revealed in Makkah. It's a murky surah and according to many of us sitting it was actually
revealed in Amil prison in the year of grief in the later part of the McKee era when the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam. experienced a lot of Hosen
		
00:01:33 --> 00:02:20
			what is herzan grief? And why is it that the Prophet saw a lot of setup suffered a lot of prison?
What made him grieve so much this particular year? Many reasons, first of all, the loss of two very
close and very loving people who were there, first of all, for the job, we love more on her. And
secondly, I will call him his uncle Khadija, although on her, she was his wife, also the best
companion, as well as a source of comfort for him. Think about the time when the Prophet said a lot
isn't received his first revelation, where did he go? He ran home and he said, cover me cover me and
Khadija low on her. She comforted him when he doubted himself when he had no idea as to what was
		
00:02:20 --> 00:03:01
			going on. She was a source of comfort and encouragement for him. She took him to what acaba Nofal.
She encouraged him that Allah He, Allah would never desert you, nothing evil can happen to you,
because you are a good person, you do this good thing you do that good thing so there it's not
possible that Allah would humiliate you lay your physique Allah Who Abba and Khadija to the one who
was a source of great support for the Prophet salallahu Salam throughout the Meccan era. So the year
that she died, it was a big, big loss for the Prophet salatu salam. And secondly, Abu Talib, his
uncle, even though he was not a believer of autolock was a source of protection for the Prophet
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:45
			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he was like a guardian for him, because he was his uncle. And you know
what, that he was one of the elite of his chiefs, so he was well respected. And if he supported the
Prophet sallallahu send them nobody could dare to harm the messenger SallAllahu radiosonde them. So
at this time, when the prophets on a lot of them lost these two people, when both of them passed
away Surah Yusuf was revealed. Why to comfort the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam think about
use of he lost his father, whom he loved because he was taken away from him. And his father was not
just, you know, a loving figure, but also a source of guidance and protection for him. He lost him.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:04:37
			He was taken away from him. But Did Allah abandon use of Earth? Acela know, so in this was a huge
lesson and comfort for Rasul allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and for every single one of us also,
because you see people who are close to us, people who love us, they care for us, they protect us,
we begin to depend upon them. And in that we forget Allah subhanho wa taala. So this is a lesson
that yes, these people are close to you, they are good towards you, but they are not the ultimate
source of protection and care. There is someone greater, who loves you more, who knows you more, who
protects you more. He is the one who made you and He is the one whom you should seek. So this surah
		
00:04:37 --> 00:05:00
			was revealed as a comfort for a soul allah sallallahu sallam, and in this world there are many many
lessons for all people, from parents to children, and brothers and friends, and employee and
employer, all sorts of people there are many lessons and inshallah as we study the solo, we will
discover them. The solar has 111 at 100
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:55
			1011 verses. So let's begin the surah Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim, la flamme ra huruf ma Katara
DeLuca Aya told kita these are the verses of the book, which book the Quran? And what kind of a book
is it? It is Elmo bien it is one that is clear, it is one that is evident, notice the word tilde
tilde is called an ism ishara and it is used to point towards something like in the English language
we say this or that, when we refer to something using the word this what does it mean? It is nearby
it is close, right. But when you use the word that that book up there, what does that mean? It is
distant it is far, it is not close to you. But remember that in the Arabic language ism is shot or
		
00:05:55 --> 00:06:49
			buried is also used for the purpose of terylene to show respect, because when something is high,
then it is far right. When something is high above, then it is far. So, for example, if you're
standing in front of a bookshelf, and there's a book at your level, what will you say this book, but
if there is a book all the way at the top, then what would you say that book The one all the way on
the topmost track, alright, so, I Tokita those are the verses of the book, this word in itself shows
the high rank that Allah subhanaw taala gives to this book, the high status of this book, this is
not an ordinary book. This is a very, very special book, because it is the word of who Ebola mean.
		
00:06:49 --> 00:07:39
			It is the word of Allah, the Lord of the Worlds. So Tilka Ayatollah Kitab and this Kitab is
morphine, morphine, meaning one that is clear one that is evident. So it is clear in itself meaning
the message of this book, the meaning of this book is clear. And wellbeing also means one that
clarifies one that clarifies. So this Quran, it is clear in its message, and it also clarifies the
concepts that have become ambiguous and confusing for the people. For example, the concept of dough
hate, isn't it a very simple and basic concept. It's very basic. It's very simple. However, what has
happened over time, this concept has become unclear to people they don't fully understand. So the
		
00:07:39 --> 00:08:28
			Quran, it clarifies likewise the purpose of our life, who are we? Where have we come from? Where are
we going? I mean, these are basic questions. These are basic concepts that every human being must
understand. But people have the most weirdest ideologies, they have the most weirdest explanations.
So this Quran, what does it do? It clarifies these realities for us. It clarifies to us the basic
realities of life, the basic concepts that we need to know that we need to understand. So it is an
Mubin. It is brilliant, it is clear, it is evident, it has detail, whatever it says there's evidence
behind it, it is from verbal Arla mean, so it is 100% accurate Tilka Iowa Turkey terrible movie.
		
00:08:30 --> 00:09:21
			And you see the word movie is from the root letters by unknown by in is actually used for speech
that is eloquent, eloquent speech, in which there is detail. There is clarity, there is evidence,
and every word is clear also. So what do we learn from this idea about the book of Allah about the
Quran? Is it a book of riddles? Is this Quran a book of riddles? No. Is it a book that has hidden
and secret messages that only some people can reveal? And some people can uncover? And only they can
understand? No, that's not the case. This Quran is clear in its message, so much so that it can be
understood by an ordinary individual also, by an ordinary listener. Also, the message is very
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:59
			evident. For the one who is eagerly seeking the truth. The message is not unclear. It's not hidden.
It's evident Tilka I took a terrible movie in in Anza. Now who indeed We have sent it down, meaning
this keytab we have revealed it sent it down from above, meaning the Quran has come from who from
Allah subhanaw taala. From Allah from above, were down down to to the human beings for their
guidance. So in Anzahl now who we have revealed it out
		
00:10:00 --> 00:11:05
			As an as a Quran, that is Allah begin that is Arabic we have revealed this book as an Arabic full on
as equal on that is Arabic why Lala contract alone so that you can understand you can understand
what has been sent to you. Now notice over here this book has been sent down as an Arabic Quran.
What does it mean by the word Quran? What's the root CA for Hamza Cora and Cora means to recite kala
what is a recitation right. So, an means recitation, that which is recited. So, we have sent it down
as a recitation in the Arabic language, meaning it has not been sent down in a written form. It has
not been sent down in a written form. Rather, it has been sent in an oral form, it was recited. It
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:50
			was recited in the Arabic language due to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Why was it
recited? Lalla Kuntar Caillou alone so that you can understand, because you see, in order to read,
do you have to put in some effort? Yes, you have to be literate, first and foremost, right?
Secondly, you have to take the time out, but the book before you use your eyes focus, and then you
will read and then you'll be able to understand what you're reading. But to listen to something,
what effort do you need to put in? Whatever do you need to put in? All you need is that you just
need to be awake. That's it. And you just need to listen, you don't need to open your ears. No,
		
00:11:50 --> 00:12:11
			they're already open. You can't really shut them. Right as a recitation in the Arabic language, so
that the simple person the live and can just listen, and blah, look on tequila and understand the
message and understand it simply so that everyone can hear and understand.
		
00:12:13 --> 00:13:07
			Also, remember that the word Quran is from the word our own same route, our own and called own is to
gather, what does it mean to gather to collect, so we have sent it down, as if Quran in Arabic,
meaning as a collection of important messages in the Arabic language, what important messages are
collected within this Quran that are necessary for the guidance of people, not a collection of all
the information out there No, only that which is relevant for the guidance of people, whether it is
the stories of the past, or the news of the future, or arguments and evidences, whatever it may be,
as a collection of messages for the guidance of people. How out of obedience in Arabic language, why
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:52
			law unlocking darkly loon. Now when you read this ayah it seems as though we are being told that the
reason why the Quran was sent in Arabic is so that people can understand its message as if we are
being told that if it was not in the Arabic language, it would be difficult for you to understand
the message. Now, when you think about the Arabs, the first recipients of the Quran it makes sense,
right? Because if it was not in the Arabic language, really, they would not understand why, because
the Arabs, they only knew Arabic, they didn't have much interaction with the outside world. You see
the Romans, the Persians, they were conquerors at that time. They were conquering lands, their
		
00:13:52 --> 00:14:35
			empires were expanding. But the Arabs lived in the desert, they didn't really mingle with anybody,
nobody bothered them. They didn't bother anybody either. They just lived in their own world in their
own deserts. So because of this reason, you can say that the influence of other cultures was very
minimal. And therefore the influence of other languages was also very, very minimal. So if the Quran
was sent in a different language with the Arabs be able to understand no way they wouldn't be able
to. Okay, but how does this relate to us? We who are not born Arabs, majority of us here, alright,
and who never learned the Arabic language? For us, it's easier to understand something which is in
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:41
			our mother tongue. Why does Allah subhanaw taala say we have sent this out on in Arabic so that you
can understand.
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:59
			Wouldn't it be easier if it wasn't another language? Why Arabic? How does this relate to us? How?
Because it shows that the Arabic language is different from from other languages, the way something
is expressed in Arabic
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:55
			It cannot be expressed in any other language. Why? Because the Arabic language is a very, very
unique language. The word I'll be is from iron Alaba and our Alaba I for example, it is set out
about an FC, meaning that he expressed himself very clearly very eloquently. So, Arabic itself means
eloquence and clarity, it itself means eloquence and clarity, to be able to express oneself clearly,
which shows that when something is expressed in Arabic, it is expressed in the best way in the most
unique way. Because you see, the language is such that in very few words, you can express a lot of
meaning. I mean, think about how we go into the roots of the word sometimes, like for example, I
		
00:15:55 --> 00:16:42
			explained to you the word Docomo yesterday, to incline towards and it's from what rockin and rollin
is what a pillar now there is a connection between a pillar and leading towards something. Do you
see that in other languages? Do you have the same thing in other languages? No. The other day I was
listening to a lecture by Mustafa Romana Declan it was just explaining the Dorado beach rally
Saturday was silly. And he was like an hour long vector explaining what just a few words, just a few
words, that how those words they capture so much meaning the feelings of Musa Sinha the context that
he was, in those words Express where he came from, where he was going, what situation he was going
		
00:16:42 --> 00:17:31
			into, there's an ocean of meaning behind few words. So really, it's very expressive. And it's not
just expressive, and it's moving. It's touching. It makes you curious, it really hits you. Which is
why there are many people who have no idea about what the Quran means. They just hear it's
recitation. They don't even know it's Arabic. And what do they ask, what is this? What is this? It's
so different. It gives me chills, because it has an impact. Now think about it. If you were to read
the translation of the Quran to somebody, would it have the same impact? No, even the words are
carefully selected. They're rhyme they match really well, they flow really well still wouldn't have
		
00:17:31 --> 00:18:21
			the same impact. Never. Because the Arabic language literally it hits you. It goes deep. It's very
penetrative. So Allah subhanaw taala chose the Arabic language, which is the best of all languages
for this full on, so that you can understand its message. Because if it was not in Arabic, you would
not be able to understand its message. So what does this teach us that we have to understand the
Quran? In what language in the Arabic don't rely on translations study the actual text and
understand the Quran? In its original text? Yes, the Arabic grammar it's so complex and deep, that
one of the scholars said that if anyone wishes to increase his intellect, and he should learn Arabic
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:53
			grammar, basically, if you want to become smarter, learn the Arabic language, learn Arabic grammar,
because it's going to make you sharper and smarter, it's going to grow you and your intelligence. So
why because it makes you use your mind. And if imagine the Quran is being recited in Arabic, Allah
subhanaw taala centered in Arabic, there must have been a reason why Allah chose this language over
all other languages. And you see, Allah subhanaw taala revealed the Quran in the Arabic language.
And this is something that you should be familiar with that in different
		
00:18:55 --> 00:19:38
			in different modes of recitation. All right. What does that mean? You see the Prophet salallahu
Salam once you mentioned that Gibreel informed him that the Quran has been revealed in one mode of
recitation, but the Prophet saw a lot isn't requested that it be more than one recitation because
it's not going to be possible for people to recite it in only one mode of recitation. So the number
kept increasing until it was seven or 10. I don't remember the exact number but either seven or 10.
Now, Allah subhanaw taala made so much room for different modes of recitation, but not different
languages. You understand my point? He revealed it in different modes of recitation. You can read it
		
00:19:38 --> 00:19:59
			as a slit off almost takim you can read it as Aziraphale Mustafi. You can read it as for AHA Musa or
for LK how musei okay, you can read it both ways. However, you can only read it in Arabic. It's only
in Arabic, not in other languages.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:47
			Arabic only different modes of recitation seven modes of recitation, but not English and Spanish and
French know only Arabic, because what Arabic expresses French cannot express the way Arabic hits
you, English cannot hit you will like that. The way Arabic will move you literally it will move you,
it will shake you it will give you chills. Spanish cannot do that. No language can do that. Yes, I
was thinking about what you just said in the languages that you mentioned. And, like, all they have
is like positive and negative connotations at the most. And like Arabic You can like derive an
entire story from just one word. Basically, from one sentence, there's like a whole story that you
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:54
			can get, you can go into so much depth because it's deep, it's eloquent. So Allah chose this
language.
		
00:20:56 --> 00:21:19
			The question is that, since Arabic is so unique and so powerful, is it manmade? Or is it inspired by
Allah? subhanaw taala. Some scholars actually they say that Arabic is not manmade. What Allah
subhanaw taala created Adam and his sunnah. Did he speak to other money center? Yeah. Did he speak
to the angels? Yeah.
		
00:21:20 --> 00:21:43
			When Allah subhanaw taala created Adam reasonability teach him the names of different things. Yes.
So that was also some form of communication. It was words, it was some language. For some scholars,
actually, they say that it was the Arabic language. It was the Arabic language, Allah subhanaw taala
taught other medicine and the names of different things in the Arabic language.
		
00:21:44 --> 00:22:34
			So they say that the origins of Arabic are not human, human mind, but rather, Allah subhanaw taala
inspired it to people. This is an opinion that's out there amongst the scholars. And really, there's
nothing to negate that definitely language evolves over time, of course, and Arabic has taken from
other languages also certain words and we learn about them in the Quran also, the word for those the
words of God, that know their words that have come from other languages, all right, however, they
have become part of the Arabic language, but the origins of Arabic, some relevancy, it's not the
human mind. It's what Allah put in the fitrah of human beings. This is why it's the most expressive
		
00:22:35 --> 00:23:40
			This is why it's so deep, It's so touching. It's so close to reality. So in that, and the now who
will earn an out OB en la isla Kentucky lon, Na na na ko. So, we relate na we Allah subhanaw taala
is saying that we are Nepal so we are relating I Laker upon you meaning to you O Muhammad sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam we are telling you here sanel Casals the best of stories over here we are telling
you a story which is the best of all stories and how are we telling the story to you Bhima through
that which Oh Hayner ileka We have revealed to you and what is it that we have revealed to you how
the Quran this Quran? In other words, we are telling you the best story over here how through the
		
00:23:40 --> 00:24:31
			Quran. through revelation, you are being informed of the story by who? Allah subhanaw taala
communicated how through revelation, so have no doubt about its correctness. It is the most accurate
account of the individual that you're going to learn about what encounter and indeed you were Min
cobbly He before it let me know how you're feeling shortly among those who are unaware. Meaning
before we told you about the story. You were completely unaware about this particular story meaning
about the story of use of an incident you had no idea because use of our s&m was the father of who
you could say the Bani Israel. Right meaning he was of the children of yaku Bredesen, him and the
		
00:24:31 --> 00:25:00
			children and we are Kubernetes and they became who the Bani Israel. So you said that Hassan was
basically not known amongst the Arabs. He was not known amongst the Arabs. The Arabs were not aware
of the story of use of Ernestina. They didn't even know of his name. And we learned that once the
mushy Qin, some of them they went for some trade somewhere and they heard the name of use of artists
salaam, and they found out the Jews, the Christians, they believe that he was a prophet. So
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:44
			They came back to Makkah. They came in they mockingly asked the Prophet sallallahu Sallam so you're
supposed to be a prophet. Do you know anything about Yusuf? As if we know more than you? And what
happened? Allah subhanaw taala reveal the surah. You ask about use of, okay? Allah is going to tell
you the account of use of RNA salah, and yes, you were completely unaware about it because your
people didn't know. This was a story that the Arabs were completely unaware of. Now, what I want you
to notice over here is two things. First of all, the word axon, and secondly, the word of puzzles
and the puzzle nakasu We relate to you meaning we tell you the story. It's from the root letters of
		
00:25:44 --> 00:26:38
			Saud flub, so your CUSO process is used for story of focus, so literally means to follow. Okay? When
the mother of Musa alayhis salam put Musar Islam in the basket and put the basket in the river that
are both in the river, she told her daughter to see he will see he follow him. Meaning follow the
taboos follow this basket, as it flows in the river, go follow it, see where it goes, make sure it's
safe and tell me where it ends up mostly he. So you understand a cycle so is to follow to go after.
Now the word story in the Arabic language. There are many words for it, I kya. And so on and so
forth. But Allah subhanaw taala uses the word puzzles, why? Inshallah we'll find out why. Secondly,
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:48
			Allah subhanaw taala calls a story of use of earnest salaam that is going to be mentioned here.
Santa causes the best of all stories.
		
00:26:49 --> 00:27:28
			I'm sure you've heard many stories, from the time when you were really young, until perhaps today,
many stories, some of which are true, some of which are false, some of which are very, very
detailed, and some are really not that detailed, some that make you happy, some that make you mad,
some that make you cry, and some that make you laugh, some that make you wonder, and some that make
you depressed. I mean, they're all sorts of stories, some that you remember, and some that you
forget also, some that you can relate with. You feel as if it's about you, that character in the
story is actually representing you. And there are other stories, you wonder, who made it up and what
		
00:27:28 --> 00:27:38
			were they thinking? All right. So stories are of different kinds. The best story ever narrated by
anyone is which one?
		
00:27:39 --> 00:27:52
			The story of use of artisan because Allah subhanaw taala is saying accidental causes. The question
is how is this story by central causes? How is it the best story ever?
		
00:27:53 --> 00:28:00
			Because who is the narrator of the story? Who's telling us the story? Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:28:01 --> 00:28:47
			It is related by Allah through the Quran. And what makes a story good. The first point, what makes a
story good. First and foremost is who is the storyteller? Do you trust him? Or do you not trust him?
If you trust the teller, the narrator, that story is really good. But if you don't have trust in the
teller, that story will not be good. I found a couple of these points from this website, ABC
copywriting.com. Okay. And they mentioned that what makes a story really good is first and foremost,
trust in the teller. What we feel about the storyteller influences our reaction to the story.
		
00:28:48 --> 00:29:19
			Like for example, if your mother is telling you about a story, and you're young, not at this stage,
when you were younger, and you trusted your mother and you looked up to her, that story was what so
captivating. It was like the best story ever, or when your dad used to tell you stories at night at
bedtime. Then what happened? Those stories stuck with you. Why? Because you look up to your dad, you
trust him.
		
00:29:20 --> 00:30:00
			Allah subhanaw taala is telling us the story and he is the most truthful, the most truthful, we
trust upon him. And that makes the story really, really good. Secondly, the story is essential
puzzles because it's in the Arabic language, we learned about the qualities of the Arabic language.
It's the best language its most powerful, its most moving. And because of this reason, the story is
also Arsenal puzzles. Thirdly, because it has everything that a good story must contain. I want you
to use your mind. Don't look at this. I want you to use your mind
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:03
			What makes a story? Good?
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:04
			Yes.
		
00:30:06 --> 00:30:23
			Okay, there's conflict. All right, then there's a, you know, solution, the main character he, rather
after the conflict, there's also a climax, right? And then the main character, he finds a solution
at the end. Okay, that makes a story. Good. Okay. Yeah.
		
00:30:25 --> 00:30:32
			When you can take lessons from it, all right. The dialogue is interesting. Okay. Yes.
		
00:30:35 --> 00:31:09
			Okay, so the main character, you can kind of relate with them and you, like, there's a lot of
emotion around them. Okay. Yes, you can say like, there's drama. There's detail. There's drama. When
there is a proper structure. It's like a quiz. It's a riddle. You don't know what's going on? What's
going, you have to pause and you have to ask. So what happened? What did she say? And what did that
mean? What did he say? And you feel so dumb that you can't understand it? And somebody has to
explain it to you. Right? But which ones stick to you? Which ones do you enjoy? Something that has a
proper flow, a proper structure?
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:26
			It's authentic. It's not fictional. Some people also enjoy fictional stories, but there's also some
element of reality in it. Right? If it's completely fictional, then what happens? Everybody cannot
enjoy it. Okay, go ahead.
		
00:31:28 --> 00:31:33
			Okay, even though you've read it multiple times, you've heard it multiple times you still enjoy it?
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:38
			When is it that you can still enjoy it, despite reading it many, many times?
		
00:31:39 --> 00:31:44
			When it's interesting, when you understand it, when you can relate with it.
		
00:31:45 --> 00:31:48
			There's a story by Robert Munch.
		
00:31:50 --> 00:32:05
			Up, up down? Have you read it? My daughter when she was, I think one year old when she had just
started walking and like getting onto the chair and the table. I read that book to her. She loves
that book deal today.
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:23
			You could read it to her 50 times and she won't get bored. She won't get bored. Why? Because I think
she can relate with it. She can understand that. It's simple. It's easy to understand it grabs her
attention, because there's simplicity in it. Right?
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:24
			Yes.
		
00:32:26 --> 00:32:32
			Good point when you can find something new when it every time you learn something interesting from
it.
		
00:32:33 --> 00:32:40
			You see, the best stories have a strong theme. They have a strong theme that is consistent.
		
00:32:41 --> 00:33:24
			Not like at the beginning, it's talking about something else in the middle of something else at the
end something else and you get lost completely as to what was going on started off with one thing
and it with another? No, it has a strong theme that is continuous. It has a fascinating plot. At the
end, you're like, wow, that's cool. And the story of use of our lesson I really it has a fascinating
plot. I mean, look at how it starts with a dream use of artisan being thrown into a well sold as a
slave and then ends up in the jail and then comes out and then it's a big shot. I mean, that's
pretty cool. It has a fascinating plot. It makes you say wow, then it has a fitting structure. Like
		
00:33:24 --> 00:34:07
			the structure, it flows really well. It has unforgettable characters, unforgettable characters, and
in the story of use of artists. And I'm really all the characters that are mentioned. I'm sure you
remember them even though you heard the story, you know, perhaps a while ago, you remember them. The
people in the jail, the woman that Aziz the brothers, right? You remember all those characters, and
especially the character abuse of racism. And it also has an appealing style. Right? Some of the
things that are mentioned over here, drama stories need dramatic development and emotional dynamics.
Is there a lot of emotion in the story? You've already said? No, of course. Okay. Next relatability.
		
00:34:07 --> 00:34:51
			The more people identify with a story, the more likely they are to be persuaded. You'll see casa por
su to follow some stories like when you start reading them, you can't close it. You have to follow
till the end, and the story of use of various animals like that. Why? Because you can relate with
it. As a parent, as a child, as a sibling. As someone who's being oppressed. As someone who's
struggling with feelings, you can relate with it, then immersion. The more readers put themselves
into a story, the more likely they are to change their opinions. It really immerses you simplicity.
Simple Stories are strong stories. Take out everything that doesn't serve the narrative. I want you
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:59
			to remember this point as we study the story user or listener, because you might wonder, what were
the names of the brothers of use of Arisa and how old
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:17
			Old exactly was used to furnish Sam? And what was the name of that woman? And who were those other
women? And what exactly was their social status? You might have all these questions. But the thing
is that if all those details were present in the Quran, really, the story would be long and kind of
boring.
		
00:35:18 --> 00:36:06
			simplicity makes a good story. That's why everything that doesn't serve the narrative is excluded,
then, stories are most persuasive when readers work out their meaning for themselves. You know, it
leaves questions in your mind in the sense that it makes you curious, it makes you wonder, it makes
you think and relate with yourself and derive lessons from it. Then, another important thing is
familiarity. The more familiar a story feels, the more powerful it is, and the story of use of
artists and I'm really, it's a very familiar story, how, because we all experience some sort of
jealousy or someone is jealous from us. There's always love and rejection and competition for power,
		
00:36:06 --> 00:36:18
			and, you know, the need for attention. It's familiar. These are things that people are familiar
with. It's not a strange thing from sci fi, you know, it's something that's familiar to us.
		
00:36:19 --> 00:37:04
			So Nanako, Sua, alayka, sanel puzzles now, as we study the story of use of artists, and I want you
to keep these points in mind. All right, and take notes perhaps on the side even something that
tells you Yeah, this point, really, it makes a story really, really good. Inshallah, we'll give you
some kind of assignment along this line to that it also helps you with your school, okay. Another
reason why the story is of Arsenal courses is because it is about one of the best people who was
that use of Eisah. And he's not an ordinary man. He's not an ordinary character. He is a prophet of
Allah. And in a hadith we learned that once the Companions they asked the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
		
00:37:04 --> 00:37:49
			wa sallam that ya rasool Allah, men are communists, who is the most honorable of all people who is
the best of all people. The prophets of a lot, Islam said call him the one who has most Taqwa of
them. The Sahaba said, laser and headedness, a look, we didn't mean to ask about that. What we meant
was something else. So the Prophet saw a lot of time and thought, okay, maybe they're asking about a
particular individual who's really the most honorable, and he said, then it is use of then it is use
of use of art Islam was a commonness, the most honorable of all people, because he was an OB Allah,
a prophet of Allah. He was the son of a prophet of Allah, who was the son of holly Lola.
		
00:37:51 --> 00:38:00
			You understand? So he said that the use of artists Anam is a commonness. Let's listen to the
