Surah
Surah Thalassa is a Madani surah
and it was revealed in the fifth year of hijra,
and it was revealed after the Battle of Zab.
This surah it contains 73 verses.
And just like Surah to news, this surah is also the last Surah of its group. Remember, in order to note I told you a group of mucky sorrows, which ends with a Madani Surah All right, so Surah to know Madani Surah after that, we studied a group of mucky sorrows. All right, and now a Madani Surah which surah is this surah talaga Why do you think it's like that? Madani? A whole lot of murky and then muddy and then murky again. Why? Because murky Surahs what is their theme,
though he'd Eman biller and EMA and Bill akhira, believing in Allah believing in the Hereafter. And this conviction building this conviction that the Quran is Al Huck, right? And then comes a Madani Surah with commands. Now if you think about it,
to follow any command of Allah, what is necessary Iman
Eman Billa. Eman will occur are the two primary foundations on which a person's Eman is built and if Eman is there then action is there. So, this is why in a group of monkey sutras, Eman is strengthened and then in the Madani Surah commands are given laws are given. So in Surah, Allah has AB also various commands are given regarding, for example, the concept of a bunny. The bunny is basically calling someone your son, giving them your legal name. All right, likewise, Leha what is Leon it was a way of giving divorce amongst the JD Arabs, that how they would say to their wife that you are to me like my mother, so it would be like a permanent divorce. So that issue is resolved in
the Surah. Likewise, certain commands concerning hijab, all right, and especially those relating to the household, the family of the Prophet sallallahu sallam, they are given in this surah
because a person cannot externally surrender to Allah unless he has internally surrendered.
So now is a good time to check ourselves. Because we all say I love Allah. I submit to Allah, I obey Allah. So when these commands are given, which are related to our actions, which are related to our cultural practices, then how do we surrender? How do we obey? This is a test
Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim. Yeah, au Hana BU, O Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, it the killer her fear Allah. Wala Toukley are ill Kaffee Rena Wellmune africaine and do not obey those who disbelieve and those who are hypocrites in the law, her Kana or Lehman, her keyman indeed Allah is ever knowing and ever wise. The sutra has a very powerful beginning, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is directly addressed. Yeah, a you Hannah bu or prophet or prophet of Allah. And the word Nabhi is from the word never never is news. Nabi is the one who gives news meaning al Mohammed the one who gives information the one who passes on the message that was given to him. So all Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, your obligation is to convey the number right, your obligation, your duty is to convey the message which has been given to you. And Nabhi also is from the word Nagoya, which is a high place so Nabhi also means Rafi rule other meaning the one who has a very high level, higher status amongst mankind. So oh Prophet, or you who has been chosen above the rest of humanity with a certain task with a certain obligation. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa Salam is being addressed over here. And what is he told it the pillar her, you must fear Allah. The Prophet sallallahu Sallam is never addressed in the Quran by name. We don't read it.
single ayah in the Quran in which we see yeah Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam he is being addressed directly with his name. Rather he is always addressed with it. Title. Right? So yeah, are you Hannah BU and this is a reminder to him and also to us that who was the Prophet salallahu Salam, not just an ordinary man he was a man whom Allah subhanaw taala chose for a certain task he has a right upon us and we have a right upon him. The Prophet sallallahu sallam said that from all of the prophets, I am yours and from all of the nations You are mine, that I am your prophet, and you are my OMA, the prophets on Alana Salam, he did his sparks right of conveying his message to us. Now what are we
doing? That is what we need to see. So yeah, uh, you have to be you all Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, it ductular Her fear Allah
did the Prophet sallallahu Sallam not fear Allah? Because of which Allah said to him here it took Allah He was someone who had Taqwa of Allah so why is the said it the killer haha. This is armor This is Command for the purpose of esteem raw armor esteem raw meaning, continue in this way. It tequila meaning remain. Remain in the fear of Allah.
Continue to have Taqwa of Allah. This is not something that you should adopt and then leave. The qua of Allah should not be such that it's just a phase in our lives. For one year we have a lot of Taqwa for one month. We have a lot of Taqwa and then we forget about it. In one place. We have a lot of Taqwa and then we forget about it. Yes, of course Eman is something that increases and decreases. However, it took Allah who continue to fear Allah and the Prophet sallallahu sallam, he said it tequila Hazlemere Kunta fear Allah wherever you are, at school, at home, at work at Masjid wherever you are. So old prophet, fear Allah, what is the COA the COA is that you act according to the
guidance that Allah has given.
And that means you do some things and you leave other things. Why do you do that? In hopes of receiving a reward from Allah and also out of fear of punishment? Because we are after all his servants and he is going to question us. So Taqwa is to leave something out of the fear of Allah or do something out of the fear of Allah. And in this is both fear and hope, how often will tomorrow?
So it took Allah the command is for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and through him.
This command is for who? For all of us for the entire ummah.
You see, no matter what rank and what position one reaches, they must continue to have the fear of Allah. If the prophets of Allah Sanam is instructed it duck Allah then who can be exempted from this?
Who can say oh, I don't need to observe the core. Everyone needs to If Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa salam had to then what about us?
There is no one who is exempt from this is the killer her. Secondly, he is told wala to care and do not obey from the word Ihlara Ihlara is obedience that someone tells you to do something and you do it. Someone tells you don't do it. And you don't do it. You're listening to them. This is a law. So do not obey do not obey who I'll caffeine, those who do Cofer while Muna 15 and those who have NIFA,
who are called caffeine, external opponents, right, those who oppose your Islam, those whose mission in life is to finish you.
And there were many such people that existed in the life of the prophet Sallallahu Sallam who openly rejected the message of the Prophet salallahu Salam and didn't just reject it, but they were opposing it. So don't obey them
while Manaphy clean and also don't obey the hypocrites, who are the mafia clean opponents from within, because they are those who pretend to be Muslim, but their loyalties are not with Islam. They pretend to be Muslim but their hearts are void of any love for Allah, any love for the prophets of Allah Islam any love for the Quran.
There is no Eman. There is no real Eman and the Manasa clean especially what would they do? Anytime a command was revealed. Right anytime the Muslims were to do something that will not feel clean. Their job was to just make noise.
Just make noise. Oh, why do we have to do this? Oh, but this is so difficult, but this is impossible. They were the ones who work
creating chaos, creating confusion causing weakness amongst the Muslims. So do not obey the caffeine and do not obey the Munna feel clean. And notice this is coming right after it tequila. That out of the fear of Allah, you must not succumb to what your opponents say to you.
No matter how much they pressurize you, whether it's the caffeine or the mafia, clean, your fear of Allah should always be greater. And because of that, you must always choose to obey Allah.
Now, this ayah does not mean don't obey those who disbelieved those who are not Muslim, don't obey them, period at all. So for example, if there is a teacher who happens to be a non Muslim, and if they tell you to do your homework, you don't say over here, Allah says lateral caffeine. So you know what, I don't need to do my homework.
This is very wrong understanding, right? Or that we're driving and we're breaking the traffic laws. And we're saying, oh, lateral caffeine, I witnessed this with my own eyes, somebody was making an illegal turn somewhere.
Right. And other person corrected them. And they said, you know, we don't have to worry about the laws of people. We only need to worry about the laws of Allah.
I'm like, well, Allah has told us to,
you know, to fulfill our promises, oh, forbid it record. And if we're living in a country, we're living with other people, we've made a promise with them. When you got your driver's license, you made certain, you know, you promised to do certain things to abide by certain laws. When you got your citizenship, when you got your, you know, residency or whatever, you made a promise that you are going to abide by the laws of the land. And Allah is the One who orders us Oh, for Bill record.
So over here, law tutorial, caffeine and Wellmune, everything doesn't mean that you don't obey them at all in anything. No. This means when they tell you to do something that contradicts the law of Allah, then there, you're not going to obey them, who are you going to obey? Allah subhanaw taala. So in the matters, that contradict your faith, you're not going to obey them, no matter how much they pressurize you,
no matter how much they tell you.
So if they tell you, directly or indirectly,
because sometimes they order you directly, and sometimes you order you indirectly. So if they tell you to be, for example, free in your relationships, right? That you can have relationships outside of marriage, or to leave your prayer or to leave your hijab, then do not obey them. If they tell you to consume what is unlawful,
do not obey them. And when they impress you with your knowledge, when they impress you with their research, then at that time, remember in Allah can I leave and Hekima indeed Allah He is I believe his resume is greater than the aim of all people. So if he has commanded of something, it's better and he is Hakeem he is also wise. Therefore, he is deserving, that you follow Him and that you obey Him.
You see, in sudo, AXA, like I mentioned, a lot of commands are given, right? And these commands are basically going to shake up the whole Arab society.
Okay. So for example, one of the commands was the which we will learn in the following verses about adoption.
That if you have raised a child as if he was yours,
you cannot give him your legal name.
Right, his last name will not be your name. If he's not your biological child, he does not get your name. What name should he be given of his biological father, right, of his blood relatives, that's the name that he should be given. Now, the thing is, you might be like, Yeah, of course, that makes sense. But in that society, if someone was considered an adopted son, they got your name, they took your inheritance, they took your inheritance, they were like a part of you, you were like a part of them.
So, all of a sudden when people are told this is not going to continue anymore, and in fact, the prophets of Allah and His family was also going to be affected over here because you see, they had been had it was known as who Zaid Bin Mohammed Salah it is and and that is how he was known. People did not know that he was actually an adopted son and not a real son.
They didn't know.
So, you see any, any such thing is enough to make some people at least uncomfortable. Right? So some people were
Of course, accepting submissive hallucinogen was a boy who behind their opinion, and there were other people who weren't happy about it at all. Amongst them were gonna feel pain. And amongst them were caffeine in the caffeine, they got a chance to criticize Islam even more. And then when I feel clean, they got a chance to make a whole lot of noise on a newer issue. Now, you understand? So anytime a command came, anytime the Prophet salallahu Salam would have to face a lot of opposition, direct and indirect from who from the caffeine and then whenever you clean so Allah says over here is the pillar, you should fear Allah and do not obey the caffeine and Mana 15 And remember, in Allah
Cana, I Lehmann Hakima what the beer and follow my you have a Laker that which is revealed to you in Lubbock from your Lord.
What is it that you should follow? Don't follow what these people say to you. Instead, you must follow that which has been revealed to you from your Lord. And what is it that was revealed to the Prophet sallallahu sallam, the Quran and remember, there's two types of where he where he Mutlu, and welcome to raid Mutlu where he that is recited which is in the form of the Quran, and where he that is not recited, meaning the other teachings of the Prophet sallallahu sallam was given. So, whatever your Lord has instructed you, you have to follow that in Allah has indeed Allah Kana he is ever be matter maluna with whatever that you do hobby law acquainted fully aware,
you see how bead one who has Hubbard right, this is different from Arlene Are you mister have knowledge,
hobby it is to have a deeper level of understanding of knowledge of awareness.
All right, because Kabita is basically one who knows even the hidden matters,
even the hidden matters.
So in the law can be met are maluna hubiera, meaning nothing of your deeds is hidden from Allah.
So, again, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam is ordered over here it the Verma you hi la Camilla big and the same command is for us. If the prophets of Allah Islam is ordered to follow, then what about us, we are also ordered to follow. Now generally what prevents a person from following what Allah has revealed is what the people say. Right? The criticism of people
their pressure, so this has made clear you do not follow them. Instead, who do you follow? What do you follow that which Allah has revealed, with our Cal, and you rely on Allah upon Allah, rely upon Allah, in which matter, in a matter of obedience, in the matter of etbr, right of obeying, following what has been revealed, and in dealing with your opponents, you trust in Allah, what alpha and he is sufficient below definitely Allah wa Akela as Disposer of affairs, Allah is sufficient as Disposer of affairs Cafe is from Keifa. What does the fire mean to be sufficient when something is enough in such a way that nothing is needed after that?
All right, nothing is needed after that it's sufficient because it's complete.
So Allah is enough as what kill who is Joaquin, Joaquin is one who is given control
or powers of administration. So basically, he decides everything, he takes care of everything. So Allah is enough as Disposer of all affairs, and he will also take care of the affairs that concern you of the problems that come your way. So in this ayah, the prophets Allah, Allah Islam is commanded to have complete reliance upon who, Allah subhanaw taala why, because difficulties will come upon this way. So rely upon Allah, not yourself. rely upon Allah, not the creation, don't even look towards the creation for their support and aid. When these commands will come, you will, of course want some kind of support from people but don't even expect it. Allah will suffice you
because none of these people will come to your aid, they will only betray you and try to put you in greater harm and none of them have the power to benefit you or harm you. So why rely upon them? Why obey them? rely upon who upon Allah in total for con i A 58 Allah says with Allah can I'll hire lady
A layer moves rely upon the EverLiving one who does not die.
Now we see over here that the sooner begins with Yeah, you have newbie and uncertain commands follow which commands first of all, it Aquila.
Secondly,
law tutorial Katharina Wellmune africaine. Thirdly, what why may you have a camera big And fourthly, whatever color Allah Allah,
because at first you need the fear of Allah.
The qua comes first. When you fear Allah, then you can stop fearing people.
And what people will say, and what people will do, and what they will falsely accuse you off, and the noise that they will create about you. When you increase in your fear of Allah, then the fear of people will naturally reduce.
And just think about yourself know, when is it that we can really worship Allah property when we fear him? Isn't it? Think about it, if you happen to be at school, and it's time for the hook, and you know that by the time you'll get home, it will be almost Maverick time. So you have to pre load at school, isn't it these days, especially, you have to pre load at school. So then what do you do? What makes you pre load at school? The fear of Allah because your mom's not there to check on you. Your dad's not there to check on you. Your Muslim friend is not there to check on you. So what is it that will make you get up and pray?
What it's the fear of Allah? Right? So the fear of Allah, it gives you so much strength that you don't fear people anymore.
Fear of Allah is what gives you the confidence to obey Him. So Taqwa leads to it the bar, what the beer.
Alright, you follow them. But then, of course, we're human beings. And these fears are real, they're not imaginary. They are very real. So for example, it's very much possible that when you go to the bathroom to do will do and you're washing your arms, people will be staring at you. What are you doing? I thought you were weird. But now I really know that you're weird.
Right? Especially if they see you washing your feet in the sink,
isn't it?
So then how do you deal with it? Just don't think too much about it. What's our color on Allah? Right? You rely upon Allah that Allah is the giver of honor, go ahead. I think the hardest part about praying at school is the widow part of it. So usually, if I have to, like, do either try to make like do it from home, or, like you do with when put your socks on so that you don't have to wash your feet, or I wait until the washrooms empty or something. Or I do like the less embarrassing parts of woofers like, obviously an order so like, a wash my rent my mouth, wash my face. And then like, I'll take a water bottle in the toilet or something like wash my arms over there, like wipe
them there. And then yeah, that way, it's so much easier. Yeah. And sometimes it happens that people do see you even praying and they make fun of you or they look down on you, not everybody, it's possible that you come across some people who do treat you differently because of the fact that you're practicing Islam. So over there, what is it that should make you fearless? Allah will take care of
all right, what the what kind of Anila? The thing is that Serato was the theme, the right path is a very difficult, it's not easy. The Prophet sallallahu himself told us that I saw the way to Jana, and it was surrounded by what? difficulties, difficulties, so it's not easy. So when you face difficulties and challenges, then what do you need to do? You can't fix them, can you? So for example, do you have control over this, that you're doing will do when somebody's staring at you and looking down at you? And you know, maybe even passing negative comments? Do you have control over that situation? Can you fix the damage that has been done?
Can you can you erase that memory from their brain? You can't Can you stop them from saying anything negative about you? You can't. So then what do you need to do over there? Leave it to who? Allah that Allah you take care of this.
What our color Allah Allah, this might seem like a very small issue. But we learned that working through these issues, whatever issues that we're facing in our lives, that Oh Allah, you take care of it, you fix this for me, you give me the confidence. You facilitate this path for me, you make it easier for me. And when you rely upon Allah than Allah will guide you. Allah will
guide your heart Allah will strengthen you, Allah will create ways for you. What the What color Allah Allah, trust upon Allah.
Trust upon Allah.
Who servant Are you? Who are you calling upon?
Who are you calling upon Allah? Who are you relying upon Allah. So be confident.
Don't be shaky here. Don't be fearful here. What our color Allah Allah, worker Fabula, he will killer. Allah is sufficient as Disposer of affairs. And you see in the previous iron and iron number two, that in the law cannot be met on my Luna hubiera whatever you're doing, wherever you're doing it, Allah knows about it, you can't hide from him, so that you better do what is right, fearing him and relying upon him. Now this was the introduction to the surah. Now come the commands. The first thing Allah says man, not Jharna he has made Allah who Allah. Allah has not made Lila Julian for any man. Men from Albania, two hearts, Fi JioFi he in his body. File bein is the dual of calm and Jove
is body.
All right. So Allah has not made for any person, two hearts in your body. How many hearts are there? One heart? Why not two hearts?
Why not two?
Because what is the role of the heart? The heart is the king. Isn't it in the physical way and also in the spiritual way? All right, it's the king. Can you have two kings? You can't. There's got to be only one king. Right? It is said that there was a man at the time of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam who said that I'm more intelligent than Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam because I have two hearts.
Can you said I have two hearts I'm more intelligent. So Allah subhanaw taala is refuting that over here that no matter Jaren Allah Who Leela Julian miracle bein benei fi JioFi there is only one heart. No person has a heart of iman, and a heart of gopher in his body.
Broaden the understanding over here. No person has two hearts, one heart of Iman and another heart of Kufa. No, there is only one heart. And the heart is the king it's the boss and there is only one boss. So just as two hearts cannot exist in one body. Likewise, Eman and Cofer conflicting beliefs cannot exist in the same heart.
Opposite beliefs cannot exist in the same hearts.
On the one hand, is obedience to Allah. And the opposite of that is obedience to those who reject so you choose who servant you're going to be. Now this is an invitation to look inside ourselves and identify any contradictions that may exist in our hearts? Whose servant Am I really? Whose pleasure is it that I am pursuing? What is it that I want at the end of my life? What is it that I'm really seeking, because two opposite things cannot coexist one will take over the other. So Eman and COFA cannot exist in the same heart. Right? Two hearts cannot exist in the same body. One will overtake the other. So because in the previous is in the beginning of the surah it's a very powerful
beginning, that you choose who servant you want to be.
Right you choose.
You want to be Allah servant then you fear Allah. You want to be Allah servant then you follow what Allah has revealed and you trust Allah and you rely upon him.
And if not, then that is a completely different way of life. So Magi Allah Allah Julio Raju Lin, meaningful benei fie JioFi warmer and not gyla He has made as wide your comb your wives as wild Florida have xojo over here it means wife.
So your wives Allah ie those who Allah is a poor enough allottee Allah tishie Allah ie those who meaning those women who so those wives of yours whom you to lie he Runa Tula he Runa you pronounce we have min Hana from them, meaning those wives of yours, whom you pronounce li ha against. Allah has not made them automatic on your mother's Oh my hat floral off on. All right. Now what is Leha this was a way of giving permanent
Divorce. So a man would say to his wife and Dr. Leigh Jacobo hurry oh me. The word li ha is from the hood. Right? That you are to me like the back of my mother.
So just like my mother is haram on me. You are haram on me.
You understand?
That just like my mother is hot on me, you are haram on me. So basically there is no relationship between us. physical relationship. All right. So Allah says,
your wife, if you pronounce the heart against her, you can call her your mother all you want, but she doesn't become your mother. She is your wife,
woman, Darla. And he has not made other iya ACOEM your adopted sons. But now how can your real sons, meaning your adopted sons are not your real sons? Other iya is a plural off. They're a
they're just as honey is a singular off Alinea. Lonnie Alinea their age? Or their Iya? No be a Ambia you understand sounds similar right? So they're a who is there a there is from their letters that are in well di through is to call. And there is basically someone who is called a son who is not actually a son, meaning he's not your biological son but you call him a son so basically an adopted son.
So when Magi the other Yeah, a con a banana Ocho. If you call somebody your son, he doesn't actually become your son.
Allah says Valley combat or you what you calling your wife your mother? Are you calling your adopted son your real son? That is just gonna come your word your statement be FYI, he come with your mouths. Meaning is just something you say. It doesn't change reality. Will law who you call will help and Allah speaks the truth.
Allah is saying that which is real, you are trying to pretend right that somebody is your real son or that somebody is your mother? These are all words. Allah is telling you the truth Whoa, who is this Seville and He guides to the Right Way because this was going to create a lot of disturbance in the community now right? So Allah will guide you to the right way.
