Taleem al Quran 2012 – P22 224D Tafsir Al-Ahzab 59-62

There's a lot to talk about when it comes to the issue of niqab and it's a hot topic, but let's be cool about it.

Okay, go ahead. First of all, is it true that the wives of the Prophet salaries? I'm used to cover one eye? Okay, good question, because in some interpretations we will find, covering everything except one eye, that narration, its authenticity is disputed. All right, there are scholars who have said that it's authentic. And there are scholars who have said that that narration is not authentic. All right. So when the women covered their faces, or one of the companions, he demonstrated that this is what a woman should do cover everything except one eye one eye in order to see the firstly, like I said, its authenticity is disputed. Secondly, what's the message over there cover as much as

possible? All right, cover as much as possible. Simple. So for one woman, it could be, you know, for me right now, as much as possible is right below my nose, because firstly, there's no man right in front of me. And secondly, I really need to breathe. So it's fine for her. And then when she's right in front of men, then she covers even you know, her eyes or more, it's fine. Go ahead. I think one of the most beautiful things I noticed about this verse is the fact that I mean, some people I've had, some people will be like you guys, you know, everyone's required to look like this. Everyone's required to act like that. There's no such ruling. It says, Do as much as you can. So there's still

room for individuality. People are like, Oh, you can be yourself when you're wearing your ABA and hijab. Or however you choose to dress, there is no such law, you don't have to wear the ABA, you don't have to, you know, wear a certain color wear a certain thing. I mean, it's, these are the guidelines, and you try to abide by them however you can, but you are still you, you're still a person. And there's no need to judge other people because of what they can and cannot do. Because there's room for, you know, doing as much as you possibly can. It gives you the room to be the best that you can be without judging other people and judging yourself. Yes, guidelines are given. Right?

What guidelines, covering yourself as much as possible, your Xena, your body, your clothing, your figure? And for that, whatever suits you best, do it wearing each other go ahead, wearing an AR baya go ahead wearing a long jacket. Go ahead, which is why we see that depending on which part of the Muslim world you go to, you will find that women cover differently in different ways. Right? I remember once we were at a farm driving by and there was a woman working in the field, and she was wearing a big childhood. All right, and she was wearing Herschel Archimedes and my mom said, can it be expected that she should wear an AR bio?

Like you're wearing?

Would it be fair, you know, when he for example, you go to your backyard? Can you go in your bio and your nice silky or via and get it all, you know, caught up in in weeds or whatever. And you know, it gets ripped, it gets ruined? Can you work? No, you can't. So guidelines have been given. All right. You know, for that woman, if she says Oh, I have to take my childhood, I've had to take my hijab off that will be wrong. She has to cover but cover how whatever the cheese most comfortable in guidelines are given. And this is what each and every one of us needs to look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself what I'm wearing. As I'm stepping out of the house, is it showing? Is it

part of the Bulge? I might displaying beauty. So for example, if there's makeup on my face, or if there is my jacket is short, you know it's above my knees, right? Or that the skirt that I'm wearing under my jacket is extremely colorful, right? Or that my pants are tight. Or that my or baya is too tight, my arm is more like a dress, right? Or that my hijab is too small, or that my chest is not being covered with this hijab of 100 Allah after studying the eye that each and every one of us needs to scan

ourselves, stand in front of the mirror when you're stepping out and look at yourself analyze of head to toe, because at the end of the day, I am answerable to my Lord, and you're answerable to your Lord, I'm not going to answer for you. You're not going to answer for me.

Somebody else? Raise your hand. Okay. Yes, you did.

So Michael, it says here that because of the hijab and the job, you won't be bothered. I just wanted to share my experience with that last year, there was a guy in my class who had like zero respect for for girls. And there was a field trip where the guys were sleeping in one hotel room and the girls were sleeping in the hotel room. And he told us that the guys all talked about the things that they would do to the girls in the class. And he said all these nasty things about the girls and it turns out that he was lying and that the guys hadn't actually talked about this and that was only him talking about this. But I could see the hurt in in my friend's eyes, when he talked about the

things that he would do to them.

And they were all like sexual things. And we were in grade eight. And we were like, come on, like that's, that's not normal. But I noticed that he hadn't mentioned me. And I was the only Muslim in the class and I was the only hijab in the class. So I asked him, I was like, why aren't you talking about me? And you said, Oh, the only thing I wonder about you is what your hair looks like. And I was like, I was like, so on a lot. Like, if I wasn't wearing the hijab, God knows what, what kind of things he would have said about me. But he didn't say those things about me because I worried job. And I was like, you know, I love protecting me from his words. And 100 Allah, may Allah always

protect you. Okay? You want to say something? Yes. Once you are in a party.

So everybody listen, please. Some people, it was a girl section. So they weren't wearing her job this summer.

And then a boy came, some girls don't look, but some day.

Some more that they just covered themselves when the boys came, okay, they covered themselves when the boys came. Mashallah, very good, very good. And this is how we should be otherwise, you know, make your hair look nice, dress up, chill out. But when the guys come, then just cover up simple.

Now, it's way less

a certain way. Cool. It's actually really quickly, I just want to share one small tidbit if you if you're all following the news these days, for the past two, three months, and how things have been, you know, sort of declining for the Muslims, just all of us sort of need to be cautious because you see that blatant division happening, right? Because most time with all the court cases happening, you see that, you know, because non Muslims and with the previous Prime Minister, the niqab was being targeted a lot. And so as Muslims, you know, we don't like being picked as human beings, we don't like being picked. And so we distance ourselves from that which is being picked, we don't want

to associate with it, right. That's where we have bystanders when people are being bullied. So when there are people, we should be unified at this point, whether you're choosing to wear the niqab, whether you're not choosing to wear the niqab, whether whatever you're doing? Well, Muslims here at ohada, some of us do wear the niqab. Some of us don't. But at this point, whoever we are, however we are, as long as we're Muslims, we need to stand united. So if you know, because I remember when I was a few days back in campus, right? An international student was asking me about it, because they're not used to wearing you know, seeing nightclubs with colorful nightclubs. And I was

explained to her and I was looking to my Muslim friend to sort of, you know, back me Yeah, you know what, that's some people sometimes do it. And I was like, Yo, can you back me up, and she wanted to distance herself, not that she didn't like me, but with the whole consequences sort of iffy. So at this point, we all need to sort of, you know, stick and you know, be there for each other. So that's all I had to say two centers.

Because believers are what they're like one wall, one body, right, each part of it strengthens the other. And this is what we need to do strengthen each other, help each other, my strength lies in your strength, your strength lies in my strength, we all should be there for one another. And at the end of the day, knowing that this has a basis in the book of Allah, this should be enough for us to accept it and to love it and to appreciate it.

Okay. I feel like a lot of the times, I know, like for myself, well growing up, and for a lot of friends of mine, it's always you're always scared that oh, they're gonna hate me. They're gonna hate me personally, because of what I wear. Because I choose to put on the hijab and so on and so forth. We need to realize that it's not us that they hate, it's our Islam, it's our hijab. It's us choosing to practice our religion that they dislike, and that's normal. That's going to happen forever. That happened to the prophets, Allah Islam, and it happened to the Companions. It happens till today. So we shouldn't be worried about, you know, if people react to you, it's because they dislike your

religion, and they're probably not someone you want to associate with anyways. You know, if people who genuinely like you as a person, they will associate with you, regardless of what you wear. So it shouldn't be that oh, you know, what are they going to think of me? It's more like, Okay, this is what I'm doing for a less time than if they disliked it, then so be it, you know, it's a less run with it. That's the whole point of it. Exactly. So be confident of who you are, what you wear, what you choose to do, whatever kind of niqab you wear, or hijab, you wear be confident, as long as it conforms with the guidelines in the Quran and Sunnah. Be confident about it.

I know a lot of people think that because of the things that people might think, oh, some people have been harassed because they wore a hijab, or they were in a car, but you actually look at the probability of how many people that really happened to you might have heard about it on the news, but do you actually know somebody that happened to and if you don't, then it shows that the probability is really low. And we always look at the probability for anything for admissions in some university or something. So we also need to look at how how many people that really happened to and how much big of a deal we make it to.

Last one, I just wanted to point people out to like the insincerity of like the narrative out there with regards Muslim woman for example,

sample. I remember once, like how, especially with Sister commented saying that her Muslim, a friend didn't back her up with regards to the nightclub. Here in the West, our problem is almost a woman or the it's we face all this Osama phobia because these Muslim women who are educated are doing something that's super backwards, therefore we're facing all this prejudice. And then after, at the same time, the same people who are perpetrating this thought, they also say we need to go to the Muslim law to protect Muslim women because they're being oppressed. So wherever almost a woman is, she's always going to be like, the center of focus of an issue. So you really need to like, just

think for yourself and just take a stand for what you think is important, and

just let's look at the Iowan last time and then continue. Yeah, are you headed maybe you or Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam coldly as well. Jika webinar tikka, when he says it'll move meaning. Tell your wives, your daughters and the women of the believers that you do Nina Isley, hinda, Mindjet, IBV Hinman, they should draw upon themselves, their jilbab in order to cover they should draw a portion of their jilbab upon their faces in order to cover why their Lika Erdenet and your offner fella you think this is more suitable that they will be known recognized as women of hire, and as a result, hopefully they will not be harassed. What kind of Allah who will fold over Hema and

ALLAH is forgiving, and merciful. Let in surely if lamea into he lum not Yenta he he stops, he ceases Yenta he from noon HYAH let me into he if they do not stop who does not stop Aluna feel calm the hypocrites. Were Lavina ficolo Be him Murad and those people in whose hearts as a disease being those with weak faith. And thirdly, while more jiophone Phil Medina and those who spread rumors in Medina if these people do not stop, then what's going to happen? Learn nobody and Nickleby him. Surely we will incite you against them. La Nohrian Nikka from Lane raw, yeah. A lot all is to send someone after another al-harbi to impose someone on another so Allah naughty Yun NACA be Him we will

instigate you against them, meaning we will order you to take action against these people in order to punish them accordingly. Learn over the yen Sienna kabhi Him we will urge you to take action against them, and then some Medan lie you Joby Aluna aka they will not be able to remain your neighbours fi her in it meaning in Medina Illa kalila, except very little Youdao Hironaka from Jewelle Jean wallrock Zhao is neighbor. And so la Yuja we will NACA they will not be able to remain your neighbors in Medina, except very little meaning except for just some time, meaning they will have to leave Medina they will lose the privilege of being your neighbors in Medina.

Now over here a threat is being given to three types of people, the hypocrites, those who have weak faith and the Mooji foon filled Medina that they better stop from the wrong actions. Hypocrites. Those who hide disbelief pretend to be Muslim, those in whose hearts is a disease disease of what week faith more jiophone FL Medina more jiophone is a plural of the word more Jeff, and more Jeff is from the root letters raw gene file. Blood Raj, Raj for means earthquake. It's basically to shake something. All right, do shake it to convulse. All right, and it Jeff is to shake people how by spreading false news amongst them or by committing severe crimes. So mod ufone FL Medina, those who

shake up the city of Medina, who shake up the inhabitants of the city, how, in two ways firstly, by spreading false news

or even right information but blown out of proportion.

Basically, this is referring to fear mongering, okay, those who spread alarm and fear in the city. How by saying all the enemies are coming all this time, we're never going to make it and remember this is sort of at the beginning the Battle of zap was mentioned. And in the Battle of aqua what was happening throughout the hypocrites what were they doing? spreading fear

Right spreading fear Malwa, then Allahu wa rasuluh Illa Allura. Write in such statements that were basically spreading fear. And secondly, fear is also spread how? through violence or through committing severe crimes. Remember, I told you that these verses were revealed concerning some people who were harassing women. Now imagine if a woman is going to a bathroom and she doesn't feel secure. Somebody's whistling at her. Somebody's following her, somebody's staring at her. She doesn't feel secure. Do you think her children will feel safe? Do you think her husband will feel safe the old family, not at all. This is also a kind of creating disturbance in the city. So Margie

fauna Phil Medina, we can understand from this committing any crime. All right, that takes the beasts away from people. Whether it is a crime of rape, or it is the crime of sexual harassment, you know, any such crime.

You see, in the previous video we learned women are in order to cover up in order to protect themselves, right. But at the same time, remember, we can never blame the victim. If a woman is a victim in a situation like this where a man harasses her, you don't blame the victim. We see that in this if it's the harassers who are being threatened, that you better stop from such activities, or you're gonna get straightened out. So the burden is on who it's on the criminals. But at the same time, women have been taught to take on means of protection and safety. This is similar to how you have your belongings in your house. There's police Alhamdulillah, that's making sure that the city

is safe. There's Neighborhood Watch, all right, or any subsystem to ensure that your property your life is safe and secure. But still do thieves exist? Do robbers exist? Do murderers exist? Yes, they do. So then, can you say that? No? Why? Why should I have to lock my door? It's such a burden to carry keys around? And why should I have to pay for a security system? Right? Why the burden should not be on me. You don't want to wake up? This is a sad reality. Right? Thieves? Are there robbers are there. And this is why whatever is of value, what do you have to do? You have to take responsibility and guard it to the best of your ability. It doesn't mean that you don't own anything

precious anything valuable. No you do. But be responsible and guarded. Keep your valuables in the bank, keep them in a locker, you have a phone, put a passcode on it, you have money, keep it in a wallet, you have plastic money, secure it with a cord, isn't it? So why do we take these measures to protect our valuables? Because there are always criminals that exist when it comes to hijab. Also, why is it that women have been ordered to cover? Is it their fault that they're beautiful? No, it's just that this is the reality of this life, this life is a test. We have been blessed with many gifts, and we have to guard and protect those gifts also. So just as we guard our money, we protect

our belongings, we also have to protect our bodies and not let the eyes of such people set up on our bodies and take sensual pleasure from or let them not speak wrong about us or let them not even think about you know harassing us physically. So, over a year to the moon, I feel Kuhn, they are given a threat over here that they must stop from such activities. And they must stop from spreading rumors. Why? Because otherwise, they will be deprived of being neighbors of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, some action will be taken against them.

Some action will be taken against them. And this is something that's you know, very normal, that if there are people who do such activities, eventually some action is taken against them. Right? It becomes a criminal act. Muller Oh nein ones who are cursed meaning such people if they continue with such activities, spreading lies in spreading fear, either through their actions are through their lies. Then what will be the fate of such people? They will be Mulrooney in Florida the word maroon one who is cursed. ATMs will people wherever they are found. Meaning no matter where they go, they will be recipients of Lana.

They will find no blessing, no matter where they go.

Because such people

I commit these crimes no matter where on the planet they are.

Earlier, it was mentioned about how even at Hajj there are people who will harass women.

There will be people who will go to a European country and what will they do? They will harass women, there will be people who will, you know, be in a very needy state, financially, even otherwise, but still they will commit such crimes

and such people of such filthy nature, such filthy thinking, Allah says Monroe Nene Aina Myrtle people, they do not find blessing no matter where they go, in this world, always receiving learner.

I remember somebody once mentioned to me about they went to a refugee camp. All right, this is a lady she went to a refugee camp in order to help out over there she was distributing packets of clothes. All right. And this was a proper refugee camp and proper organization with whom she went. And she was wearing an AR bio.

All right, wearing an AR bio. And she was attacked by the men that she was helping.

She was giving them clothes, money, blankets, and they did not have this much respect that they should thank her instead, what did they do? They tried to sexually assault her.

And you see a person of this nature, then it doesn't matter where in the world he is, he will commit such a crime no matter where he is. So what happens Mulrooney they are hated by ALL pitied by no one.

This this particular individual after that day, they decided never to help out those people. Because this is what they do. I'm not going to give them anything, I'm not even going to go and help out because this is what they do.

I mean, yes, we have to have air sign and all of that. But still, who would want to help such a person who in return sexually assaults

so mellow Nene Aina mersal people no matter where they are, only though there are seized what to do tequila, and massacred completely meaning then people will not even have respect for their right to live.

This is the level of degradation that these people will end up in. If they don't stop from these disgusting crimes, they will have no respect left, neither in the eyes of people, nor near Allah. Now, this idea is telling us the fate of such people. And this is something that we really need to worry about. We really need to think about.

And secondly, this is also a ruling concerning them. This is understood as a command for the Prophet salallahu Salam that if these people don't cease from their crimes, then you have to take some legal action against them. But did this actually happened at the Prophet saw the laws and really wage war against the hypocrites or did he punish them in this way? No, he didn't because this threat was enough. Alhamdulillah this threat was enough. This was a severe warning. And these people stopped from such activities. You know, for example, harassing the women or spreading lies and rumors in the city of Medina. Allah says Somenath Allah this is the way of Allah fillerina Holloman Cabo amongst

those who passed on before while ontology that and you shall never find listener de la vie for the way of Allah wa de la. Any change, meaning this is the way in which Allah deals with such troublemakers with such criminals, no matter what time no matter what place, you see, each and every person has free will. Right? And each and every person can do whatever you want with this freedom. But when a person crosses the limits, then what happens Allah sees is the wrongdoer.

He sees as the wrongdoer. You know, there's a point up until then a person may be given his freedom to do whatever he wants, but then Allah subhanaw taala seizes him. So when corruption reaches a certain limit, Allah does not allow the corruptor to move ahead with that facade. And over here, we need to ask ourselves that what kind of news do I share with people? Is it news that is depressing, blown out of proportion?

Of course. I mean, this idea is understood as that this will be the fate of such people that even if no legal action is taken against them, this will be the fate of such people. There'll be melatonin wherever they go, because no one likes, you know, a person who will sexually assault someone or who will spread lies, they lose dignity. Even if they're themselves needy. They don't they don't have any dignity left. No one feels pity for them anymore. And secondly, this is the law concerning them that if there are people who persist in such crimes, especially when it comes to harassment of women,

Then there must be some kind of legal action against them. And I mentioned to you the story of once when I was at Aurora, and I saw, you know, all of a sudden men coming, coming coming and police officers coming and I just moved to the side frightened, wondering what was happening. And all of a sudden a boy was brought in in the middle of maybe in his 20s. And he was given like, multiple lashes. And I was just scared, you know, wondering what just happened over here and later on, I asked a gentleman as I was walking in, and he told me that particular guy had harassed a woman in the mall.

So right there, and then because it was caught on camera, he harassed her, maybe grabbed her, you know, Shayla, or something, right there, and then he was punished. Okay, so in our religion, sexual assault is a crime. It's not the fault of a woman. You know, unfortunately, what has happened is that the entire burden has been placed on the women, you cover head to toe, even your hands and your feet and even your eyes. In fact, you don't come out of your house at all. Because you are a source of fitna and the men they're given a free pass do whatever you want, watch whatever you want, eat whatever you want, go wherever you want. Alright, have as many wives or as many mistresses that you

want, you know, even different forms of marriages which are basically you know, signing up for Zina, they are permitted legalized, so that men have a free pass and women women are locked up.

This is unfair, we see the balance in these verses. Women are taught you take caution you protect yourself. And at the same time, a severe warning is given to those who dare to attack and harass women.
