Taleem al Quran 2012 – P19 196B Tafsir Al-Naml 27-37

Lesson number 196 pseudo number is number 27 to 44 Now what happened once with a man on his sudden he hears this from the bird caller he said send a little we will see a saw Doctor whether so doctor you have been truthful and contact or you have been mineral caddy been of those who lie. So they manually Salam does not confirm, does not accept this explanation that the bird has given, nor does he deny it outright. He doesn't say oh, okay, so where are they? How many are they? He doesn't take any interest in it? He doesn't get upset by the fact that he didn't know about them. Right? He doesn't confirm and he doesn't even deny he doesn't say Oh, stop lying and stop making up the story

just to save yourself? No, we will find out ourselves we will investigate whether you are truthful or you're making this up or you're like he doesn't make a hasty decision. Now this is exactly what we should do also that especially when a person is in a position of authority, if a situation if a case is brought forth then don't make a decision until and unless you have heard both sides of the story

don't believe you know one version that that has been reported to you that has been narrated to you with tears or with excitement No, don't confirm don't deny unless you've heard the other side of the story. So so they might miss them doesn't confirm that the bird has told him unless he finds out for himself and how does he find out he says either go be Kitabi with my Kitab keytab over here gives the meaning of MK to that which is written all right not book but over here it means letter so take my letter had this so today man or his son I'm wrote a letter to who addressed to the Queen Heather this fall okay. Then throw meaning deliver. L

L P means you throw you deliver and her at the end is a pronoun it meaning the letter so Deliver this letter la him to them summon the Wella on whom you turn from them meaning you leave them you stay on the side but don't go away don't come back founder then look mother yield your own mother what is that which yield your own they return? Meaning how is it that they returned to each other? In other words, what do they discuss amongst themselves? What do they respond to us with see what their reaction is? In other words all right now so they might notice that I'm could have sent the letter with somebody else.

But why does he send the letter with the bird?

Why? Because the bird is the one who gave this news and so they might say listen I miss testing with the bird was truthful or not correct. And then we see that based on the reaction that he will receive from the letter so they might know this and I will know whether this kingdom even exists. You understand? So it had Nikita be harder for LTE lay him so moto Alon whom fumble mother your German see what their reaction is?

Exactly. The bird couldn't just make something up in response to the letter. All right. Now, notice over here. So the mannerism here is about this nation. What is his concern he sends a letter to them. Now in the letter, of course is a message the letter of a prophet think about the letters that the prophets of Allah Islam sent to the different nations what were the invitation invitations to Islam. So they might not listen to him when he finds out about this nation. What is his concern there Islam? When we meet someone, what is our concern? Our dunya generally

will we are more concerned about ourselves than we are concerned about other people. So they might notice him when he finds out about them. He wants to do that what to them, pilots. Now what happened the Hoople who both went and delivered the letter when it delivered the letter the Queen read it and when the Queen read the letter, she didn't just keep it to herself. What did she do call it she said yeah, you will Mala or eminent once. So she shares the letter with her counsel in the indeed I Opia eladia It has been delivered to me what has been delivered to me keytab and Karim a Kitab meaning a letter that is Karim noble. Now a letter is noble because the one sending it is noble. You know, for

instance, if a letter has been sent by a king, it's a royal letter, right? So the one sending it is normal. Is that the case over here? Of course so they might or listen um, who was he? A king. Likewise, a letter is normal because of

its content. Its message, right? Another reason why a letter is knowable is because it's sealed with a royal seal, meaning it is authentic. This is why people said that it whoever sends a letter to somebody, but they don't sign it off, they don't put their seal their stamp, meaning their name on it, they don't sign it off properly, then they have humiliated the person whom they have sent the letter to understand,

like an anonymous letter, okay, this is in a way insulting the other person, that you're not even worth as much as this that I should tell you that I am the center.

All right. So please, when we do leave notes for other people.

Emails also don't create anonymous accounts. All right, with very strange names, Facebook accounts, and God knows what. And then just haunting other people and sending them email after email, disturbing them, especially text messages. I mean, we got numbers of other people from others, and then we sent text messages without even mentioning our name.

And if the other person asks, Who are you, we say, Guess who?

I receive a lot of such messages. And you know what I do? I don't reply. I don't reply. Because if you cannot do as much as tell me who you are, I'm sorry. I'm not entertaining, any message like that. And then if it's really important, what you have to tell me, then you will tell me who you are.

So this is necessary. It's disrespectful.

So she says that Opia Ilya kitab. One. Kadeem, another letter has been delivered to me. Now, what do we see over here the queen? What is she doing? She's sharing the letter. And also its content with who? With her counsel? Even though she is the queen? Can she keep it to herself? For sure she can keep the letter to herself? Can she respond to it herself privately? For sure she can? Does she need to consult her people? No, she doesn't, because she has that authority, that power. She can manage this all by herself. But what is the reason behind sharing this with her counsel with her people? What's the benefit?

You see, it concerned them also.

This was a matter of the kingdom, which concerned the people who lived in that kingdom. So this is why she doesn't keep this knowledge to herself. She shares it with them. And then she consults them that how is it that we should respond? Later on, as you will see in the ayat why, because this is a matter that concerns them. And this is perhaps the reason why she was their queen, even though she's a woman.

That why is it that her people respected her so much, and they appointed her as their queen, and they have accepted her leadership. Don't take this as Oh, that means that a Muslim woman can be a president and all of that we're not discussing that. We're discussing the fact that she was in a position of authority, ruling over men, how?

How she won their hearts. She won their hearts. And how is it that she did that? By taking their shooter by consulting them, just like the Prophet sallallahu Sallam he was instructed was, shall we at home, Phil. Now this doesn't mean that on every little thing, we start consulting other people, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam didn't consult people in every every single matter. Many times. In fact, most of the time when the Prophet sallallahu Sallam took the Sahaba for an expedition, he would just tell them we're going come, and the Sahaba wouldn't know where they were going. They would not know where they were going, the Prophet similasan would not tell them because if he did,

the news would spread the enemy would know and of course, the prophets of Allah and whatever plan he had would fail. Right. So this is why he kept some things as private information and some things he made public through consultation. And this kind of wisdom is necessary, because if we over consult, that is a problem. And if we don't consult at all that is also a problem. In the hood, she says indeed it meaning this letter is Minsu a man it is from saw a man who is what a man now she knows he's the king. We're in the who and indeed it is. Bismillah hir rahman al Rahim. It is It begins with what the name of Allah who is the most merciful the Especially Merciful what do we see over

here that the Queen knows who the sender is? So the minor listen I'm he says in no min Sulaiman mean to the man from so the man comes first. And then Bismillah you understand means that a man first and then Bismillah what's the reason how come in the letter Bismillah was not first. Why? Why is it that he put his name first.

For the purpose of knowing, right identification, because if the Queen read Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim she would say, Oh, who is this Allah and what is our command? And what is on Rahim she will get angry and agitated. But when she reads or this is from salaryman, that great king. Now she's giving the due attention to the letter. And then when she will read Bismillah R Rahman Rahim she will also accept that the Prophet sallallahu sallam, even when he had important documents written and when he sent letters to the kings, what is it that he wrote at the top had written at the top Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim. The Treaty of her they via the Prophet sallallahu Sallam dictated that

it should be written Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim. And so Hadrian Amal, who at that time was a non Muslim he said that no, we don't accept this we don't accept a Rockman

so he had a change to Bismillah Allahu only Allah, not a Rahman over him. But what we learned from this is that it is prophetic etiquette that when you write an important document, when you send a letter, this noble statement should be mentioned at the beginning. Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim. Allah that not that aloo you will be hottie aleja against me with me what Tony and come to me Muslimeen as once in submission TyLoo from iron lamb Whoa, Lu aleteia Allahu Allah, meaning do not rise up against me.

Do not rise up against me instead come to me in submission meaning as Muslims, those who have surrender to Allah subhanaw taala Now this means that the letter was not very long right? There was no well your your honor, and you're this and you're that and praising them and praising her beauty and whatnot. No, nothing like that. The letter is straight to the point concise and this is how the Prophet spoke briefly and eloquently. The prophets of Allah were men a few and powerful words. So Allah Allah What do you need Muslim in college, she said, she said to her people, yeah, you have Mala Oh eminent once after uni, advise me of Tony from if that fatwa what is fatwa a solution?

Right? To a complicated situation a complicated matter, that you don't know what to do. So you seek a verdict, and that verdict is meant to be a solution, but are you forced to accept it? No. So after Tony, you give fatwa to me, meaning you advise me, you tell me what I should do fee AMRI in my affair meaning this matter? You advise me, give me your input, because my going to, I am not going to have the attention. Conclude one who concludes one who decides Omran affair matter had that as her Dooney until you are witness for me all that and I'm Ron Carter, from the letters off bar in Qatar, what does author mean to cut now, when you cut something by for example, you have a huge

piece of meat. All right, you have the option of cutting it into you know, like long pieces, like for example for stir fry, or in cubes, right. Once you cut it, then the matter is decided isn't it once you cut it into cubes, then you can't turn it into stir fry meat.

Once you turn it into stir fry size, you can't turn it into you know meat that can be put on skewers. Once you've got it you've decided this is why before you cut it you better know what you're doing. Isn't it because then you cannot reverse

so called to attend Amman. Afterall ama is to decide something final decision concerning something. All right, to appoint one armor, leaving all other options. So I am not going to decide this matter until and unless the whodunnit, you are a witness for me, meaning you are part of this decision making. You have to put your share. I'm not doing this myself. Amazing. A queen is saying this to her counsel. She's taking their Shura. And this is the reason why she has their support. Because people who take who consult others than what happens. They have supporters and people who decide things by themselves, then they're left alone. they're left alone and you will see this even in your

family, even in your family, that if for example you want to do something right. For instance, you want to you know study a particular course. You just make up your mind yourself, like you know what, by the way, if

I'm doing this, are you gonna get support from your family? Not at all. But if you say, Dad, I really want to study this course. What do you think? Do you think I can do it? And he says, Yeah, for sure. Why not? For example, he got his support. Alright? And then of course, you need to be dropped off and picked up, is he going to help you them? And if you don't consult him at all, you decide on your own. And then you say that I have to go, please drop me. He's like, No, I can't. I'm busy right now.

And then is it going to lead to a fight and argument? Yes, it will.

Even something as small as preparing food. When you consult other people take their input, you know, they are part of the process, they will accept it. Recently, I was reading this article that why is it that children these days are so picky when it comes to food?

Why are they so picky? Because first of all, they don't even know where food has come from.

They have no idea what food is no idea, because it's just prepared and put in front of them. Right, they just have to do the eating. When it comes to cooking, or picking the food or buying the food or growing the food, they have no idea how this works. So they just look at the final product. They don't like it, they leave it. So once they are part of the process, and this is what this suggests, now that when it comes to even groceries, take your children along with you, when it comes to preparing food, have them wash the vegetables, have them cut, you know, get those knives that are safe for children and include them in this. There's something very small, I mean, think about it. If

your mother still buys clothes for you. Do you disagree with her choices sometimes? For sure. She'll buy a pair of pajamas for you will never touch them. Why? Because the print is a horrible, even in bed you're never gonna wear it. He don't like it. Right? But if you bought those pajamas with her, you chose one color instead of the other. She took your suggestion, your input. Are you going to be more excited to wear those pajamas? Yeah, so much so that you live in where they will your pajamas under your Avaya

right. So this woman is amazing. She takes her sure and she insists you must give me your opinion. I am not making a decision except with your input Carlu they said no. We are all No coverton We are possessors of strength we are powerful people what will know and possessors off but Cintia deed bats military might and should eat severe meaning we are strong people and we know how to fight. We are hardly in war. We are great warriors. We are brave and firm in battle. Well, I'm Louis lake, but the command is yours meaning the final judgment rests with you fondly so look at this yeah at the end is for female finality. So look, Matthau what is that? That Maureen? You order that Marine? Again, the

unknown at the end is for female? What is it that you order? What is it that you come in?

What is the council saying? We are at your service. If you want us to fight against today, man, we can do that. But if you don't want to fight that is also something that we will accept. Now, what do we see this nation is no ordinary nation. People who are you know, hardly in war in battle. But still as a woman, she is ruling over them. And they give their suggestion indirectly, that you know we should go fight. And they say that if you want us to fight we can fight. We are capable of doing that. But it's up to you. Whatever you decide, we will do that. Pilot she said in an MOU indeed kings plural off Malik Malik is a plural off. Malik kings either the Hulu Korea turn when they enter

a city when they enter a town, a population. What do they do? I've said to her, they ruin it. They destroy it. I've studied from upset the facade to corrupt cause decay. If a king attacks a city, what is he going to do to that city? He will ruin it he will destroy it. Why John Liu and they make a resistor. A resistor honored ones plural of the word Aziz. The honored people are Alia. Its inhabitants meaning the people who are honorable in that city, the wealthy people with power people have some authority. They are made into a villa. Those who are humbled, Florida de Lille humiliated. Why? Because they're the main targets right? Aren't the main targets. People, for example, in the

government people in any government position or people in the army or people in the Air Force, so much so that even their relative

Are you know they become targets? Work America for a loan and that is what they do. History is a testament to that this is a fact. Now over here we see that the queen, she doesn't know who she's dealing with, right? She doesn't know who they man or listen I'm is meaning how much power he has, how strong he is. So she's very wise in what she's saying that even though her people are willing to fight, right, but what does she say? That the outcome of war is never pleasant?

It's never pleasant. It's never beautiful. So she wants to avoid war. Why? Because war what does it do? It ruins lives. It ruins businesses, it ruins family's livelihood, it's traumatizing, traumatizing in every respect. This is why we see that when the Prophet saw the loss and went to Makkah to do Ramadan, and then was shaking didn't allow that. And instead, they came outside the city, they sent a group of their people armed with weapons, basically, it was an invitation to fight the prophets of Allah Salam, he avoided confrontation, he avoided war. He did his best to avoid war. And that's exactly what happened. Easily a war could have broken out but the Prophet sallallahu

Sallam did not like that option, because first of all, they had gone for umbra. And secondly, why had consumed both parties, I mean, up to that point, so many battles had been fought. So war, the outcome of that is never beautiful. So, we see that the Queen is inclining towards sort of, towards some kind of compromise, even though that is difficult, I mean, she is basically being told, so the mannerisms message was that you come, alright, and you should be under my rule, you understand? You should be under my rules. So either you come willingly, or we will come and fight you. All right. Now, firstly, we may wonder why did city minority send him even do that? Why didn't he just let them

live? Because you see, so they might notice and it was a prophet of Allah. All right. And a prophet of Allah is not just to live his own personal life or his own happy life with his believers and followers. He is supposed to take that message to the rest of the people. So because he was in a position of honor, all right in it royal position, this is why he invited a queen to Islam. All right, this was not an invitation to war. I mean, if you look at the letters of the prophets on a lot of send them also sent, what was the message, except Islam? Right? That was the main message. But what happened, those who refuse to accept Islam, they killed the miseries of Rasulullah

Salallahu Salam. And because of that reason, one battle broke out, which led to another battle, which led to another battle. And gradually, gradually, what happened? Muslims, they conquered Persia, they conquered Rome and all of that. The empire expanded. Right? So that's exactly what's a reminder, listen, I was hinting towards that either. You can accept Islam come, we'll discuss about it. And if you don't want to do that, then it might lead to war and bloodshed. This was basically a threat. And he could make that threat. Now, what happened? The queen she is inclining towards discussion. And so all right, she's inclining towards that she doesn't want to go to war

immediately. Because the outcome of war is always bad. So she says we're in the indeed, I Mozilla Tony lay him, I'm going to send to them be Hadiya 10 with a gift, I'm going to send a gift to them. So she wants to test so the man or listener? That is a just an arrogant king who wants to expand his kingdom? Or does he really have a message for us a religion for us? Is he really a prophet, so she's testing him. So I am going to send to them a gift Hadiya is a gift for Natalie Otto and then I'm going to look at Bhima with what your Giroux he returns a lot more saloon the messengers, meaning those whom I send with the gift to slay man or listener, let me see what response they bring back.

And then based on the response, we will make our decision, either we will go and speak to them and discuss or we're gonna fight them. So she wants to know who Suleiman or Islam really is, what is his strength? So basically, she's sending some spies over there. Okay, she's sending her people with gifts, her delegation with gifts but the real purpose over here is to know how mighty is Suleiman or listener? What's the size of his army? What's the size of his empire? What is his strength? So she wants to know who he really is and based on that you will decide whether to fight him or not fight him. But in this was an added benefit also, and what was that but by sending a gift, she would know

what kind of a man so they might listen um, is greedy for power, or really a prophet. So basically, if he's a king, he

I will accept the gift. And if he's a prophet, He will reject it. You understand? If he's a king greedy for money and power, you will accept the gift. And if he is more than just a king, then he is not going to be satisfied with the gifts that I send him.

The understand, he's going to want more than just gifts, and which is why he's going to reject the gifts. And he's going to be firm about what he's demanded from us.

This is something easy to understand. It's just as if you really want something very specific. For instance, you want to be with a friend of yours, you say that I want to go dinner with you.

And she says, I'm busy, I can't really go. And she makes excuses, one after the other. Right? And instead, she sends you a very nice flowery message. What are you going to say? I don't want your messages.

I want your time.

You understand? Now if you're just someone who's craving attention, will you be happy with that flowery message? You will be happy because you're just craving attention. Okay? It's not her time I got her nice message. Every day I get a nice message, a flowery message. But if it's not attention that you're craving, you want the person

you understand you want the person you want their time you want their company, then what are you going to insist on?

What are you going to insist on their time? Their company? Right? So this is what the queen is doing? She's testing so they man early Sana Philomathean when just today man, he came to set a man who came to slay man, the delegation of the Queen the mysteries of the Queen when they came with all the gifts Carla said a man or SLM said to me don't any are to me don't any you are providing me from him that mean that they're right Madame to extend him that is to give reinforcements to provide basically, so are you providing me be Madeline with money with wealth? You're giving me wealth, farmer, but then that which attorney Allahu Allah has given me how you don't is better mimma than

that which Atacama he has given you. In other words, I have money already. Allah has already given me plenty, I have no need of your wealth. But rather you are, be her the Yeti come with your gift for whom you rejoice, meaning, I have no need of such a gift. It is only people of the world who rejoice when they receive a gift, meaning people whose goal is dunya. When they receive a worldly gift, yes, they get very happy with it, and they forget their purpose. So they get deceived by these gifts. And I'm not one of those people. So they mannerist and I made a tear that he had no need of this bribe. All right.

I am in no need of this bribe.

Why? Because I already have money. The purpose of my letter, the purpose of my Dawa was not to take over your lands and to take over your money. No, the purpose was something else. And what is that Islam?

So you can keep your money to yourself, you can keep your gifts with you. I have no need of that. All right. Now, the delegation of the Queen when they went to deliver all these gifts and this conversation that they had with Saudi mannerism in this time, they had a good look at the kingdom, so they might notice and they understood who they were dealing with. So they might notice and it was not just a king, an ordinary king. He ruled over the jinn. I mean, he had birds, armies of birds, okay. This was something amazing. So they went back to the queen with all of this information that firstly, gifts have been rejected. He doesn't want money, there's something else. That is his goal.

And that is his message, his Dawa. And secondly, there is no way we can fight him. There is no way we can fight him. Can you imagine fighting a ginardi Like seriously? Can you imagine finding a bird army? No winning over there. Right

now, just something before we continue that saw a man on s&m He was offered a gift and he rejected the gift.

Why did he reject it? Because it wasn't just a gift. It was a bribe.

Now money can very easily put people in fitna.

It can very easily make people quiet. Make people greedy. You know make people change the truth change the facts very easily. People can be persuaded

Do leave what they believe in how with money. You know, for example, if there's a very serious case and there's some witnesses, and if those witnesses are abroad, then the guilt will be established and those witnesses are told by the criminal party that, you know, we'll give you this much money just don't show up. Doesn't happen. Don't just say this and Louise.

Bing judges, Bing witnesses is something so common. People know the truth, but just because they've been given a good financial big gift, they will not support the truth anymore. Likewise, it happens with people who have knowledge of the deen sometimes they are paid to change the deen and this is the reason why we see that scholars of the past when they were offered to accept a position of authority they refused because they were basically being bought. You know, Mr. Malik, he was abused, tortured, because he refused to give a certain fatwa Imam Muhammad even humble even here as persecuted because he refused to change his opinion on something. Right? So you know a person really

has to be careful when gifts are given to them when money is given to them. It should not change us.

It should not corrupt us. So so they might not s&m He's not affected by the gift. elegir II lay him he says go back to them Go back home. He says to the delegation of the Queen go back home felanitx Deanna home we will definitely come to them beat you know then with armies left Kybella home beha learn not people any power law home for them behalf for it meaning we will bring such armies that you will not be able to face left people alone Allahu people basically means that which is in front that what you're facing, you're fighting you're dealing with. All right. And kibble is also used for power ability left evil Allah who became means he has no power over it he will be unable to resist

it. So in other words, they will have no power to match our armies. It's definitely a lose lose situation for them. When a north region a home and we will expel them. Men have family of 11 as those who are humiliated, warm Soglin on and they will be debased this is basically a threat so reminder listen, I'm saying that okay, if you don't want to discuss the message that I sent to you, then fine if you want to fight go ahead, but remember that if you dare to fight us then this is what the result is going to be recitation of these if all
