Now after this introduction, Allah subhanaw taala tells us these stories. The first story is like I mentioned the story of the wife of Iran. Allah subhanaw taala tells us if Carla team wrote a tour Imran recall when the wife of Iran said, What did she say? She said Rob be in the middle to laka Murphy batani Mohalla run for Taco Bell mini Inaka Anta Samira and Arlene, she said, My Lord, indeed I have pledged to you what is in my womb consecrated for your service. So accept this for me. Indeed you are the hearing that knowing Allah subhanaw taala begins the story by saying if on it, if it means recall when or mentioned when meaning tell people about this. So this is a story worth
knowing. This is a story worth talking about. This is a very inspirational story. Many lessons for us. So in color Tim rota Imran when the wife of Imran said, now who is in Malta Imran, the wife of Imran, the wife of Imran, her name is not mentioned in the Quran. In fact, it's not even mentioned in the Bible. All right, it's not even mentioned in the Bible. The story of the birth of Miriam is not mentioned in the Bible. Okay, and there's a very little even about the birth of reciting Assam. Now. You see, the Bible, especially the second testament is a very different kind of a book. Okay, it's a collection of different gospels, okay. And each gospel has basically been written by an
individual to, for example, Gospel of Matthew, Matthew was a person who wrote that gospel. Okay. Gospel is basically good news. And it's mainly written in first person, it's a narration of Matthew, for example, narration of, you know, whoever wrote the gospel, and good news, meaning they wrote what they learned about reciting his salaam or from him, okay. And you can understand then that if somebody is writing down something, years and years after reciting sunnah, of course, it's not going to have all of the details in it. And if an individual is writing something, then they're not the only individuals who wrote the Gospel. And so there are the gospels that are within the Bible, okay,
they are known as the canonical gospels and then there are also the non canonical gospels. Okay. The non canonical gospels are those gospels, which are not in the Bible, but they are gospels. Okay. Now, in the mid to late 1940s, there were two major discoveries of ancient texts. Okay. And these two ancient texts actually inform a great deal in Biblical Studies. A, there's a lot about biblical studies that you can learn from these two ancient texts that were discovered. Now these two ancient texts that were discovered at that time, and one of them was, of course, the Dead Sea Scrolls. Okay, they're more famous. The second discovery was of the Nag Hammadi gospels. And these were basically
53 documents. Okay, that date back to at least 180, C, E, 180, C, E, so they're actually very ancient. All right, written around the same time that these canonical gospels were written. And within those documents is actually a gospel of James. And the gospel of James is also known as the Infancy Gospel, infancy because it talks about the birth of reciting his Salaam. All right. Now in that actually is mentioned the story of the birth of Millennium. And this story, by the way, I mentioned to you is not in the Bible. All right, it is in the Gospel of James. And the narration is very interesting. Okay, it mentions that Imran jokin is the name was a very wealthy man in the
histories of the 12 tribes of Israel. And he was over the years even when you consider how wealthy he was, he was extremely wealthy compared to many people before him also. And not only was he a very wealthy man Imran, according to the narration in the Gospel of James, he was also a very devout man who would bring double offering one, you know, especially he would bring for forgiveness, okay. And he was tested in a way that many righteous slaves of Allah are tested. And his test was that he did not have a child. Okay. And at one occasion, we learned that some people actually shamed him. Right one person said to him that you cannot off
Are your offering first because you do not have a child, you are childless. So you stay back. And he became very upset about this. And when he considered, you know, historically in the Bani Israel eel, the righteous have children and he saw that, yes, the righteous head, children, but there were also many righteous who were given children very late, such as Ibraheem Alehissalaam. Allah subhanaw taala gave him children in his last days, but it is not that jokin actually went for 40 days and 40 Nights anywhere he just did or bother. Okay, so basically, he went for a 40 day long, earthy cough, okay. And he was fasting, and he was praying, and he was making draw, and why because he wanted a
child. And he was praying to have a child. On the other hand, his wife, in Rotterdam one, it said that her name was Anna. Okay. And she was, of course, very sad, because one, her husband was gone for so long. And two, she was also childless, she did not have children. And we learned that a woman who actually you know, was less than her in status, you know, she mocked at her that you do not have a child. Now, one is that, you know, you're dealing with this in your life, that you do not have something that you wish for. But what hurts even more is when people ridicule you, or people exclude you. So it is said that she went to her garden, okay, to walk around, and she saw a tree and sat
down under it. And after arrest, she petitioned the Lord, and he she may draw, and she said that God of my ancestors, bless me and hear my prayer, just as you blessed our mothers Sarah, and gave her a son Isaac to her. Because even she had a child at a very old age. So Anna Mae dar like that, and then it has mentioned about how, you know, she wept and she cried, and she looked up to the heavens in towards the sky, and she saw a nest of birds in a tree. And she said things like, you know, the birds have, you know, they're fruitful, right? Any they have chicks, they have babies. Domestic Animals also are fruitful. The wild animals of the earth also are fruitful. So basically, she's
saying that your Allah, so many creatures of yours, procreate, they have children? What about me? And she kept making this draw, until we learned that she was given the good news of having a child and when she was given the good news, it is said that an angel appeared to her and this is something not uncommon in the Bani Israel, Allah subhanaw taala chose them and you know, the angels would appear to them. So when she received the good news, she said that whether I give birth to either a male or a female child, I will bring it as an offering to the Lord my God and it will be a servant to him all the days of its life. So basically, they're also we learned that she dedicated her child
to God. So it Karla Tim Rotter Imran in the Quran. Allah subhanaw taala tells us that the wife of Imran said Rob be in Nina there are two laka Murphy botany that oh my lord, indeed I Nether to laka I dedicate to you I have pledged to you. mafi botany whatever is in my womb, Nadal Otto is from the root letters known that raw and Nether is to make a vow and this is basically when you take an oath and you say by Allah Wallahi
that I will do such and such for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala such and such is something that is not mandatory on you. So for example, if a person says I swear I will give under dollars in South Africa, this is another Okay. And now there's different kinds of another and I've mentioned that before the different types of another. But anyway, here she said I have vowed to You meaning I dedicate to you, I pledge to you, whatever is in my button button is belly. Okay, any whatever it is that I am carrying in my womb, whatever child it is, oh my Rob, this child is for you. And in order to Lukka for you, and this child is going to be more hurlan Well, hello and literally means one who
has been set free because it's from the root letters. How wild up. Okay, Hurriya is freedom, so the hurried is to set free Mahara is one who has been
that free. So this child will be set free, set free from who, from slavery to people or from service to people. Basically, what she's saying is that this child will not have to do anything for me. I do not expect anything from this child of mine, for me that the child had served me the child should live with me. No, I set my child free so that my child is dedicated to you, Yara for your worship. And basically, she wanted that her child becomes a worshipper of Allah. Also a hard him a servant of muscle. OXA. Right. And she says Mohalla Ron, so Mohalla is basically someone who is consecrated for worship. Now, in Bani Israel, there was this tradition, where people would bring their children to
buy through mock this must do Luxor, and their children would basically live there. Why would they live there in order to learn the scripture in order to carry out the rituals in order to you know, assist others also in carrying out the rituals of their faith, and in order to worship Allah, and basically be a servant of God at much of the Luxor. All right, so this was an established tradition at the time, and this was something very virtuous, right for people to do. So she wanted that her child should do something like this. So she said, I am making a vow because when you make a vow, then you have to fulfill it. You find a Benevity you have to fulfill it. You can't back out and if
there is I'm not aware of what their custom was or their shitty are was, but at least an hour Shinya? Any you don't just break a vow, you only break it, you know, it's impossible to fulfill it. But anyway, she said in order to laka Murphy Bocconi Maha Rahman, okay. And then she says, For the Cabal Mini, Oh, my Lord, except for me, the Cabal Mini, this is from cough Balamb. Her door all over here is for What the Oh my Lord, accept this dedication from me, accept my child, right for the service of your religion, accept from me, he reward me for this. Can you imagine she is making such a huge dedication. And she doesn't think that of course it's going to be accepted. And she doesn't
say like, I want this in return. And I want that in return. Her concern is your up accept this offering from me. amazing woman, honey, we think that if we have prayed our Salah, we have done God a favor. If we have given sadaqa if we have fasted in Ramadan, or if we have done a little good here or there, we think we are doing Allah a favor. No, we're not we're doing ourselves a favor. And we should never ever be deceived that our deeds are automatically accepted. We should be concerned about the acceptance of our deeds, whether it is our salah, or it is our sadaqa you know, whatever we do, we should be concerned for the Cabal mini Ibrahim and his Sinha. When he built the Kaaba, he
made a similar door All right, Rob Burnett, the Cabal Mina Ibrahim and is married Arlene was salam. Both of them pray the art of accept this from us, and we just take it for granted that our deeds are accepted and he we should be between fear and hope there should be hope that inshallah or deeds are accepted, but there should also be feared because of that fear, we should pray for the acceptance of our deeds, because of deeds are not accepted, then what a loss, what a loss on the Day of Judgment imagine a person will come and when he will be asked about what he did he will say that I used to read the Quran and other will say I used to give sadaqa and Allah subhanaw taala will not accept
those deeds because they were done for the sake of showing off for the sake of being called a reciter for the sake of being called a martyr for the sake of being called a very generous person. So Allah will not accept those deeds, because they were done with insincerity. This woman is so intelligent. First of all, look at her offering her dedication and then look at our concern for the Kabul mini accept this from me. And then she says in the semi or Eileen, indeed, you truly are a semi or dalim. You are the hearing you are the knowing you have heard my words. You hear my daughter, and you know my condition, and her condition was something amazing. Okay, first of all,
any how is it that she is making this vow? Right? She is pledging her child? Where's the Father? Where's Iran? We see that in these verses. Imran has not mentioned other than his name. It's like he's not present. Okay. Why is he not present? Why is he not there? Well, someone really must say
that he had actually passed away at this point. And he when Hannah, the mother of Maria became pregnant soon after that Imran passed away, and he was not there for the birth of his child. And so now the mother of Medea is the one who is responsible for her unborn child. So she's still pregnant, the child is in her womb, her husband has died. She's a widow, and she is dedicating her child for the worship of Allah. And she says, For the Cabal Mini. Now this dedication was this offering is even more special now. Because imagine if a woman is childless, right, and her husband has passed away, and she's pregnant, imagine how much expectation she would have of her child. All right, but
she doesn't want anything from her child. She wants to offer the best that she has, for the sake of Allah azza wa jal. This is love. i This is a sign that a slave of Allah truly loves Allah more than they love themselves, or anyone else. She's offering the best that she has, for the sake of Allah. And then she sang for the Cabal money. Have we ever pledged something for the sake of Allah? Have we ever offered something that is not mandatory on us, to Allah? Any one is that you know, we gives a cat, there's a cat we have to give, alright, then we fast in the month of Ramadan that we have to do, we go for Hajj, if we are financially able, well, we have to do that. But beyond that, beyond
that, an extra voluntary good deed that we do willingly on our part for the sake of Allah, because when you love someone, then you don't do the bare minimum. Right? You go really far in expressing your love. Alright, so the mother of Madame imagine her condition, her husband is absent. He's not there. And she makes such a pledge, right that she is dedicating her child to Allah, that her child should become a worshiper, and a servant at the masjid.
And look at the word she uses Mohammed levlen, that my child will be free liberated from worldly obligations, liberated from, you know, earning an income from worldly things. Rather my child will be dedicated purely for the sake of Allah, Allahu Akbar. And now she talks to her Lord that for the Kabul Mini and look at this dua, and I'll be in in other tilaka Murphy balcony Mahabharata and Fatah Kabul mini we think Dora is all about asking for things Yeah, Allah give me this yeah Allah give me that yeah, Allah I want this Yeah, Allah I want that. Of course Dora is about asking Allah for things for Dora is ultimate talking to Allah. Like she's expressing her intention, her plan before
Allah Indra and then she asks for the Kabul Mini. In her humility, she begs for acceptance, and she talks to her Lord, and Allah listens in the Corinthia, Samia and Eileen. Now what happened? Falun Mau will Bharata then when she delivered her will Daraa. Well, Bahrain is the root, which is literally to put something down. So when she delivered her, she gave birth to her meaning to her child, call it therapy in me with her to her own answer. She said, My Lord, I have delivered a female child. And this shows us that she was hoping for a boy, even though she had said that I dedicate mafi botany whatever is in my womb, whatever is in my womb, could be male child or female
child. But she was expecting that it would be a boy, she was hoping that it would be a boy because she had pledged her child for the sake of Allah. And in Beighton mock this at the time was only boys who were consecrated for worship, not girls. So when she gave birth to her, she said, Don't be in the world or to her own sir, I have delivered a female child. So why does she say this? She's saying this because she is apologizing. She is offering an apology, that what can I do now? I had made a pledge and now this child is a girl. So then she says Wallah who are Alonzo Bhima? In one recitation, it is Allah who are alone. Bhima will dar to Allah knows best of what I have given birth
to. Okay meaning Allah knows what I have given birth to. Allah knows already. I made this pledge and Allah created my child. And yes, the male is not like the female, but I am going to fulfill my pledge. Okay, so we learned that she did take her child to vital mock this and her child was accepted over there. Anyway, Allah Subhan
No trial says will Allah who are alone will be moderate. Here in this reading, we see that Allah subhanaw taala tells us that Allah was most knowing of what she delivered. Allah is telling us that Allah knows best of what she delivered what she gave birth to, meaning there is no need to inform Allah. Allah already knows that it's a female child. Right? And Allah subhanaw taala knew, even at the moment when Imran Imran was making her pledge that the child was going to be female. And we learned in her these that while the child is in the womb and Angel assent, and Angel writes down the decree of the child and part of that is that angel asks Allah, that is it going to be a male or a
female child? So this was decided by Allah will Allahu Allah, Allah will be my mother earth, so there's no need for an apology? Well, they said that Oracle Onza, and the male is not like the female. Now, who is saying this, we can understand that the mother of mme is saying this or we can understand this as a Joomla mortadella, where Allah subhanaw taala is saying something in the middle of her speech. Okay, well, he said the colloquial answer, the male is not like the female. This does not mean that the male is better than the female or the female is better than the male. No, it means that the male is not like the female, meaning they're different. Okay? This does not mean that the
male can be Mohalla can be consecrated for worship, and the female cannot be because the male is more pious than the female, the male is more righteous than the female. No, this is not what is meant, because there are women. First of all, we learned that both men and women are slaves of Allah. And Allah subhanaw taala does not waste the reward of any DOER of good among you whether male or female. So both can have the Quran it Allah both can draw near Allah. If it was the case, that it's only that males have a special privilege in terms of piety than women would not have to praise Allah at all women would not be required to give sadaqa women would not be required to go for Hajj
to go for Omura and do such deeds. So while he said the crucial answer, does not mean that the male is better than the female in terms of piety. No, this means that the male is different from the female, meaning there are differences between them. And so what a man is able to do, the female is not able to do at times, and at other times what the female is able to do, the male is not able to do, right. And as a general rule, also remember this, that the male is not like the female. And he Subhanallah people want to treat both men and women the same way girls and boys in exactly the same way. Whereas there are clear differences between the two physiological differences, psychological
differences, you know, emotional differences. And the deen that Allah subhanaw taala has given us perfect, and that is why at times what is obligated on men is different from what is obligated on women. And what is obligated on women is different from what is obligated on men in some matters. So when they said they couldn't call on Sir, why does she say this then? Why does she say this then? Well, they said the clerical answer, because at her time in the masjid invited marketers, it was only boys who were taken for the role that I mentioned earlier. Not girls. So this is an extension of her apology. That what am I supposed to do now? Well, they said the caracal Onza. But she doesn't
give up. She says we're in the same made to her Maria. We're in the ER E to her beaker with the Reatta Homina Shavon regime. I have named her millennium and I seek refuge for her in you Oh Allah, you protect her. And also her descendants from shaitan de expelled. And then the office you don't mention that she actually took her daughter to bathe and mock this and her daughter was accepted over there as Allah subhanaw taala mentions that for the Kabbalah Hora booga bookable in person. Okay, so she mentioned when they said the Croco Onza almost as an apology, all right, but then this hiccup, okay did not prevent her from fulfilling her vow. She went anyway, she took her child to be
the muchness anyway and her child was accepted. And you see sometimes that happens, you intend to do something, you want to do something, but then there is a hiccup along the way. Something that you did not expect an obstacle, right or something very different. Something very unusual. That unique situation does not mean that now you quit. Now you give up. No. It means you go anyway. And you create a new path. Right? And this is what happened.
in her situation, she took her child anyway and her child was accepted in a very unique way. So when I said that Oracle OnStar now, if this statement is understood as a statement of Allah subhanaw taala is telling us that when they said the critical answer, then why is this mentioned over here? Because Allah subhanaw taala is telling us here about why it has to be a girl at this occasion and not a boy. Because the male is not like the female. Here a female was needed a female child was needed to do something special that a male cannot do. So, this was not an accident. This was intentional. This was decreed by Allah that the wife of Imran must have a female child and not a
male child. Well, he said the caracal answer. Then she says what in the sun made to her Miriam? She says indeed I have named her Miriam. Okay, now she does two things over here first of all, she gives her daughter a good name. And then secondly she gives her in the protection of Allah. Okay, now some may to her is from the root letters seen meanwhile, or while seen meme there's different root letters that are suggested for different route origins that are suggested for the word ism. So she said I have named her madame. Now, by the way, Madame is the only woman who is named in the Quran, who is mentioned in the Quran by name. There are many other women that are mentioned referenced in
the Quran. Okay, but they're not mentioned by name. Such as the wife of Imran Imran Imran Imran Aziz, we learn in Surah Yusuf and many other women will not add to who and his wife in one place. We then want to call Emma, meaning the wife of Ibrahim, Alison was standing there right in total Lahab aura to her Mariela to help the wife of a hula hoop is mentioned, but none of them are mentioned by name Maria, the only woman who has mentioned by name in the Quran, and there is no different explanations that the ruler might have given. You know, for example, one of them for Sudan said that the Arabs did not typically like to mention the name of their women, okay, they would refer to their
women as ohms. So and so the mother of so and so the daughter of so and so, you know, my a hill, my family, you're a hill, right? But they did not have any issue in mentioning the name of their slave women. Okay, so there are a number said that the reason why Madame has been mentioned by name in the Quran is because she is truly a slave, a worshipper of Allah. And she reached a status of closeness to Allah that many other women did not. Majority of the women did not. So she symbolizes Obadiah right servitude to Allah. And it is also said that Madame, by the way, the name Medea means a la vida, el hajima, any the worshiper a high demand a servant leader of Bihar, and he was always
worshiping and serving her Lord. And Madhu Young is from Rama Urim, which means to depart from something it means the borrowed, get to be distant. So Miriam is someone who is distant from what from what is immoral, one who is distant from sin, from worldly indulgences, right. In Syriac, Mary means Murata tuba have any bitterness of the sea, because you avoid that no matter how thirsty you are, you will not drink sea water. Alright, so she's distant from sin from what is immoral and she is an arbiter dedicated to her Lord in worship. So, look at the name that Imran Imran chose for her daughter. So, it is the child's right to be given a name and to be given a good name okay. The child
should be named soon after the child is born. And he within a few days, at least, and there are pico Alto has to be offered and a good name should be given. You know, when I laid out the Longhorn, who became a father, he named his son help. Help means war. Okay. War, but the prophets of Allah who Urteil Salam, when he found out that Ali had named him how he said no, he is Hasson he is Hassan. Hassan means someone who is very good. Someone who is very you know, beautiful. So in the some made to her Maria, choose a good name. Don't just choose a name that sounds good. That sounds unique. Alright, or, you know that does not even have a proper meaning. Subhanallah
Allah sometimes people will literally choose a name because of the way that it sounds or because it is unique. And these days are the kind of names that people are choosing for their children. Any what kind of names are there? And okay, you understand people who are not Muslim, they do such things. But why are Muslims following in their footsteps? Amazing. So she gave her child a good name. And then she said we're in need or either have become, indeed I give her in your protection or Allah in need, or either her or IDOs from our meanwhile that, so I give her in your protection, because in you, any You alone can protect my child, and You alone can protect with reata her
children, what a wise woman, she's not just concerned about her daughter, she's also concerned about the children of her daughter. And he or she makes the call for her grandchildren also that yeah, Allah protect them to min ash shaytaan regime, from the accursed shaytaan. To protect them. You know, the moment you have a child, you are concerned about the safety of your child, you don't want anything to harm your child, no bacteria, no virus, no evil I no shaitan no accident, no heat or cold, intense temperatures, or, you know, wind or water or, you know, anything like that. And we go to many lengths to protect our children, baby proofed the house, you know, have a camera on the
child constantly, when the child is sleeping, this is only natural, you want to protect your child because you know that your child is vulnerable. Right? And it's also so precious, you want to protect something that is very precious to you. And as a child grows older, you want to protect your child from any emotional damage also, right. Now, the thing is, there are some dangers, we can see. We can imagine. We know of them, right? But there are so many more dangers that we don't even know exist, or dangers that will exist in the future. And if we began thinking about all the possible dangers that exist today that could exist tomorrow that could exist in 10 years and 20 years and 30
years and 50 years and 100 years, we would not want to have children, we would not want to put our children through those dangers. So remember that survival is only possible with Allah's protection. Safe is the one whom Allah grants safety to. So be wise and give yourself and your children and your future generations in Allah's protection. ask Allah to protect you, your children and your future generations from all dangers and from the greatest danger and the greatest danger is a shaitana regime shaitan who is a regime regime is from the root letters Raji meme, and Rajim is to stone to throw a stone. Okay? And regime means Rajim or it means more Joon rajim, as in one who throws
stones, one who pelts And shaitan is called a regime because he throws the stones of doubt and desire. And what's wasa into the hearts of people? And his Ultimate Doom meaning one who was stoned. Why is he stoned? Meaning he's chased away? We don't want him to be around us. So we say there'll be our other beaker mean hummus at the shelter and what are all they'll be caught up, be thrown? Don't even let trial team be near me. Be present with me. You say Bismillah you cast shaitan away, right? You remember Allah And shaitan has to go away. So shaitan is not someone who you want to be around you. So we're in the array to her beaker with Rita Homina shaitana budgie and you see there are
dangers that you can see. So yes, you protect your child from what is visible. For what about the invisible dangers, the danger that you cannot see the danger of shaitan right. So we must give our children in Allah's protection. This doesn't mean that now you can become carefree. No healthy amount of fear is good. But an excessive amount of fear is unhealthy. It can become detrimental for a person. And we learned in the Sunnah, that the Prophet sallallahu Urdu Salam used to make dua for his grandsons. Were either comer be Colima Tila hit them when shared equally shaitan will hum I mean kuliah in llama and he would say that your father Ibrahim, or you Salam would make the same door off

The most perfect complete Words of Allah. Right? And the words of ALLAH include all of the Scriptures, the revelation. It includes the Quran, especially the verses that are used for seeking protection such as color or the proper Fela color or the brokenness, it could see sort of Fatiha leftovers of certain Bukhara, all of the verses of the Quran that we read for protection, right and the words of ALLAH includes a Shafia that's the healing words of Allah. So we say are either Kobe Colima delight dama T and been shared equally shaitan against the evil of every shaitan Okay, well hum. And also against every hammer hammer is a poisonous creature.
