Taimiyyah Zubair – Taleem al Quran 2021 J04-047H Tafsir Aal-e-Imran 104

			Welcome men come O'Malley, the owner lol hide and let there be arising from you a nation inviting to
all that is good in the previous verse, Allah subhanaw taala rather in the previous verses Allah
subhanaw taala tells us that we should not be divided while at the for Roku and that we should be
united wire Tasleem will be heavily Lehi Jamia and here we are being taught that together we should
call humanity to that which is good yet Aruna it'll hide. So this teaches us that the work of this
theme which is to call people to what is good is only done with Unity it cannot be done when there
is division. When people dislike one another when there is an unhealthy competition. They're
		

			constantly trying to you know, put one another down. There are grudges there is biases, then people
cannot call others to goodness, you can only call others to goodness when there is unity. So Allah
subhanaw taala says Walter comin come on Mattoon, Walter con and there should be lamb over here is
Amara. So it means should any there should be men come among you or Mattoon and OMA, now the word
men come can be understood in two ways. First of all, we can understand men as meaning some of men
is off BB here, meaning there should be some among you or Muslims, there should be an OMA a group of
Muslims among you who are dedicated to the cause of calling people to what is good. Secondly, we can
		

			understand men as ban, meaning Walter Commencal them that you should be that you all Muslims should
be an OMA, who called others to what is good. And both of these meetings are correct, they're
applicable because there are times when each individual is responsible for calling others to what is
good. For instance, you may not be very knowledgeable, you may not feel very confident about your
knowledge. But if you see someone doing something wrong, or you see that someone is missing out on
something good, and you're aware of that, then in that situation, you should invite them to what is
good. So Walter Commencal OMA Toyota Runa Adel, hi. And then there are situations where you need
		

			there should be people who are dedicated to this cause who excel in you know, learning the deen and
calling others to it. So in some situations, yes, each person is individually responsible to call
people to what is good and in other situations, not everyone is responsible rather a dedicated group
if they're doing that it is sufficient and this is why it is said that calling people to what is
good I'm gonna build my roof now here and in one car commanding what is right for bidding what is
wrong, this is a fault key fire a fault key fire means that if some people from the community are
doing it, then it is sufficient. Like for example salatu Janaza, the funeral prayer is a fault key
		

			fire. So for example, someone in the community dies, then as long as some people are performing
salatu Janaza it is sufficient, then he you are not required to go and pray Salah to Janaza like you
are required to pray Lord Salah for example. Right? So low Salah is what it is faultline when you
have to do it, it's not sufficient if you know some people in the house are praying, no it is an
individual responsibility but fault Keifa is that if some people from the community are doing it,
then that suffices for the entire community so well to commend come on my 20 year the owner it'll
hide to meanings that you should be an OMA you should be a people who call everyone to what is good
		

			and each person in their capacity should do this or that there should be a group among you Muslims
who does this job. So well document come on Mattoon, Yoda Runa. It'll hide and the word OMA is from
the root letters Hamza Meme Meme, and the word OMA has multiple meanings. It is used in the Quran
for an OMA as in a group of people, okay. And that is the meaning over here. There should be a group
of people or you are a group of people. And secondly, the word OMA is also used for Dean for
religion. Sometimes it is also used for an individual any an individual who has reached command any
who is truly an example like Ibraheem Alehissalaam was an Oma. So Walter come in, come on my 20 year
		

			the Runa ill and the word OMA by the way, it is derived from the word Amma which is to direct
oneself towards a certain goal and
		

			then not just aim at a certain goal, but to also strive towards that goal. So an OMA is a group of
people that have the same goal. So you should be a people of the same cause that you call everyone
to goodness, you call one another to goodness and you also call others to what is good, and hide,
remember, it means good, and it includes all of what is good, and the Quran is hide. Everything that
the Quran says is hide all works of righteousness or hide and hide something good can be something
from the dean and also any something worldly, which is considered good, which can be religiously
beneficial for a person as well. So for example, eating what is good for a person eating what is the
		

			you? Now a person might say, well, you know, eating and drinking is from this world. Yes, it is from
this world. But if you eat food that is halal, if you eat food that is by you, if you eat happily,
if you select that food which is best for your body, then this is also something that is beneficial.
So the only way of calling people to good is not just that you tell them brothers and sisters pray
salah, or brothers and sisters recite the Quran, that is one way. Another way is that you encourage
people for example, to look after their health, to eat well to drink more water to exercise or to
walk more and things like that, that is also height or to manage their time in a good way to you
		

			know, set higher goals for themselves and you know, strive towards achieving those goals. So all of
this is played played is not just salah and the cat and Hajj and Umrah all of that, of course is
played. But hey, it includes anything that is good. Anything that aligns with what Allah subhanaw
taala has revealed and commanded. So while taco men come, oh my god de Runa lol Hyde. And this is an
obligation on the Muslims. We cannot just be selfishly striving for hate for ourselves, okay, that I
want to live the best life and I want to have the best, you know, goals and strive towards them, et
cetera. Yes, you are concerned about yourself but you should also call others to what is good your
		

			own or ill hate. And you cannot live selfishly on the earth. You cannot just be concerned about
yourself. You have to be concerned about others as well. So well the commend come on Mattoon yet,
Aruna, it'll hide they should call to what is good. And then Allah subhanaw taala says wayah Morona
Bill maruf way and honer en la Mancha and they should command what is right and they should forbid
what is wrong meaning there should be an OMA among you who is doing these three things calling to
what is good commanding what is right forbidding what is wrong or you should be an OMA who is
calling people to what is good commanding what is right and forbidding what is wrong this is an
		

			obligation on the Muslims now to command what is right and to forbid what is wrong is from playing
right this is all good if you think about it any you invite people to what is good meaning you tell
them to do what is good and you forbid them from doing what is wrong. But it is separately
highlighted over here it's not just considered under the umbrella of plate but it's separately
mentioned over here why to show how important and what Bill Maher roof in the here an element called
are how important these two matters are that you command what is right and you forbid what is wrong.
And yet Morona minimal roof yet Morona This is from Amara Hamza meme and Omer is to command and en
		

			Hona This is from Nikki noon. How are ya nahi is to forbid so you do a murder of maruf and now he
off mancha now maruf is that which is recognized as something good it's from the root iron Rafa and
you're a fan is to recognize okay. So mod Wolf is that which is recognized, recognized as what as
something that is acceptable to human conscience something that is good, something that is accepted
by the religion of Allah, ne it is something known to be right. Okay, this is my roof. Like for
example, speaking the truth, you know, speaking kindly to people looking after your health, you
know, all good virtues, this is all maruf and one car is the opposite of that one car is from noon
		

			Caf RA and one car is that which is rejected. Okay. Why
		

			Why is it rejected? Because it's known to be bad? Any it's bad. It's rejected by the law of Allah.
It's rejected by any the human conscience even because people find it to be repulsive and
disgusting. So this is one color. So there should be an Omar among you who call to what is good
command what is right and forbid what is wrong. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that
whoever among you sees an evil, let him stop it with his hand. And whoever is not able to do that,
then let him stop it with his tongue. And whoever is not able to do that, then let him consider it
bad in his heart. And that is the weakest of faith. This is Hadith in Sahih Muslim. So I'm not been
		

			malroux for nahiN and mongkol, they are very important, any, not just for a family, but also for a
community. He, for example, within the house, are there any rules that people set? Of course, there
are all right, for example, people have rules like in our family, we do not insult one another in
our family, we do not hit one another. Right. You know, you have certain do's and certain don'ts.
And why are these rules there are these rules there to make the life of the people in the family
difficult and miserable? No, it is to ensure that everyone is respected everyone feel safe in the
house, and that there's a positive environment where people are allowed to, you know, live
		

			comfortably, because if someone is doing something that they like, but it is infringing upon someone
else's comfort and safety, then a line must be drawn. Right. So for any group of people to live
together in harmony, there must be some rules, some do's and some don'ts. And when you know people
are not living by those rules, then there must be someone who stops them, right, someone who
corrects them, someone who reminds them now one is that you only expect the authorities to come and
stop people or come and tell people, but this is not very effective. The best is that when you as a
member of a household of a society of a community, when you see that someone is not doing something,
		

			right, perhaps they don't know. Or perhaps they don't realize or perhaps they're forgetting or you
see them breaking some rules, then you need to step up and you need to remind and you have to do
your part. So this is a marble marble roof and now here, Anil Mancha and both of these are very
important so that the affairs of people are set right? Right so that people can live in harmony and
to command what is right to forbid what is wrong. This is the way of the righteous in fact, this is
the way of the prophets. The prophets were sent to command what is right and forbid people from what
is wrong. Think about it. The greatest moral wolf, the greatest model good thing is what it is
		

			though hate and the prophets came to tell people to worship Allah alone. The greatest Moncure is
what it is schicke and the prophets are sent to stop people from committing schicke so yet Morona
Maroof Wan honer Anil Mancha. This is prophetic way. It is not interfering with the lives of people.
Okay? No, why? Because there are matters in which yes, you mind your own business. But there are
other matters in which you must intervene, you cannot just be a bystander, alright, you cannot just
say that, you know, let people do whatever they want. There are some situations in which you don't
say anything. And there are other situations where you must say something, right? For example, if
		

			your child is doing something dangerous, putting something dangerous in their mouth, what are you
going to do? Are you going to say, Oh, I let them explore everything with their mouth? No, you're
not going to do that. So just like that, when you see that someone is unaware, then you tell them
you inform them when you see that someone has forgotten. You remind them when you see that someone
is making a mistake, then you help correct them. All right. So um, what have been my roof now here
in Mancha? The purpose of this is not to pass judgment or to condemn people or to cancel people or
to constantly burden them with you know, suggestions. No, the objective of commanding what is right
		

			and forbidding what is wrong is to help one another. It is to uplift one another. It is to maintain
justice. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said in Edina, Nestle her in Edina and Nestle her
in Edina and Nestle her that really
		

			June is sincerity. Religion is sincerity. Religion is sincerity. And the people asked Limon ya
rasool Allah, sincerity to who or messenger of Allah. And he replied sincerity to Allah, his book,
his messenger for the leaders of the Muslims and for their general public. So sincerity to people is
that you are honest with them, that you want the best for them. When you see that they're doing
something wrong, you correct them. When you see that they clearly don't know something, you help
them recognize that you help them learn that when you see that they're making a mistake, you correct
them, this is no see how to people, not that you just let them keep on committing, you know, wrong
		

			after wrong after wrong. Any think about it if your friend, not even a friend, a stranger, okay? If
they're walking around, let's say with toilet paper sticking out of their pants, what are you going
to do? There are some people who will just stand and watch and laugh. Alright, but if you really are
sincere to people and you want best for them, what are you going to do, you're going to go up to
them, whether you know them, or you don't know that you're going to go up to them, and you're going
to tell them in the nicest way possible so that they can remove it. All right. So I'm open mouthed
off and a hidden mancha is the height of caring for people that you want the best for people. Now,
		

			of course, when you're going to call people to what is good, you're going to Command what is right,
you're going to forbid what is wrong, you have to do it properly. Right. So there are certain adept
there are certain etiquette of commanding what is right and forbidding what is wrong. I remember
once a very long time ago, my first child had an accident, a toilet accident. And it was the first
time that I witnessed such a thing. And I basically freaked out. I was a very young mother and I
freaked out. And instead of focusing on how I could help my child, I started focusing on myself that
oh my god, this is disgusting. And how am I going to do this, and this is, you know, I was basically
		

			freaking out, and my mother in law was there. And she looked at me, and she said to me, you're gonna
scare him like this. And in that instant, it was like a light bulb went on. I was like, Yes, I am so
focused on myself, that the weight that I'm reacting, I am going to scare my child. And then
Alhamdulillah my thinking completely shifted, completely shifted. And then I was able to handle the
matter, and you know, clean up, etc. So the thing is that when we see someone doing something wrong,
instantly, we begin to pass judgment or like a soft Allah, they don't even know this much. And oh,
my God, this is so wrong. And I'm never going to speak to this individual again. And we form
		

			judgments, we form very strong opinions. And then if we want to approach them, you know, we want to
talk to people, we don't talk to them in the best way. So I'm not even Maroof nahiN and Mankad has
to come from a place of compassion, from a place of sincerity, from a place of honesty, and it has
to be done in the best way in a good way. Right. So what are the etiquette of commanding what is
right and forbidding what is wrong? The first and most important etiquette is that it has to be done
with loss with sincerity to Allah. When you call people to what is good, you are doing this for the
sake of Allah. Okay, because of your loyalty to Allah. So correcting someone is not an opportunity
		

			to put them down and exert your superiority over them. Correcting someone is not an opportunity to
belittle someone, correcting someone or telling someone what is right is not an opportunity to seek
fame. Okay, and if it is done for any of these reasons, that you are seeking superiority over
people, you're seeking fame or you want to take revenge, you want to act on your jealousy or anger,
you want to belittle people, you want to exert your spiritual superiority on others, then this is
not for the right reason. This is not if loss, this is not for the sake of Allah and is not going to
produce the right results. So it has to be done for the sake of Allah. He had their own ill hydia
		

			Morona Bill Maher ruffian honer Anil Mancha. So this must be with a class. And this means that when
you call people to what is good, you're calling them to Allah, you're not calling them to yourself.
Secondly, the second Adam is that you must come from a place of URL because Allah al Mukalla Lommel
knowledge comes before action, and therefore knowledge comes before a Morakniv any you must learn
before you tell people what to do and what not to do, because you cannot give what you don't have.
And we see that when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam when he would send you know a different
companions to different people. He wouldn't just send any of his companions anywhere in
		

			You wouldn't just send any random person any plays random, that go and call people to what is good?
No, he would send the knowledgeable among the companions. And before he sent them, he would teach
them, he would advise them, he would instruct them. So it is not right for an ignorant person to
call people too good. Now, this does not mean that a person must be a Mufti. In order to do this
work, no, but you must have certain knowledge of the matter that you are commanding people off or
you are forbidding them from. So for example, if something is you think that something is wrong, are
you really certain that it is wrong? What evidence do you have that it is wrong? And what knowledge
		

			have you gained regarding this that makes you certain that this is wrong? So this is very important.
And if you don't know about something, then leave it, leave it to the people of knowledge or go
learn yourself so that you can then tell people another thing is that part of this condition? Is
that any there are matters in which there is difference of opinion. Okay. So when there is a known
difference of opinion regarding a certain issue, then you don't go on telling people that what
you're doing is wrong. And so you are doing an A here, Anil Mancha. No, that is not no here in
Mancha, because the other person is following a different fic opinion than yours. Okay. And that
		

			opinion is based on some URL. So the Messiah ill Philosophia, any those matters in which there is
difference of opinion. You don't go on telling people this is wrong, this is wrong, this is wrong,
just because they're following a different fit from you, you can have a healthy discussion. If you
strongly believe that what you do is closer to the Sunnah is a stronger opinion, you can have a
healthy discussion, but you cannot go and tell people. Oh, brother, why have you shaved your
mustache? You should only trim it or brother? Why have you not fully shaved your mustache? Why are
you just trimming it. So just because someone follows a different opinion than yours, it doesn't
		

			mean that you go and start stopping them. Now, the third adage is that you must understand people,
and you must have knowledge of the circumstances of the person whom you are approaching any, you
must advise them at the right time and at the right place. Okay. So for example, imagine if someone
you know is doing something wrong. Okay, let's say they're praying. And you see that they're
praying, and they're not bending in record all the way down, you know, they're not making their back
straight. So you think in your head, oh, my God, this person doesn't know how to do record properly,
and you just walk up to them. And you say, when you see something wrong, you should fix it with your
		

			hand. So as they're going into record, you put your hand over their back, and you kind of press it
so that they can go further down into the core. Do not do that. Because you don't know if they are
unable to make proper record because of some back pain because of some back injury. Right. So you
don't know about their circumstances, what you shouldn't do is that you should wait for them to end
their salah. And then you can talk to them. And you can find out if there is a reason why they're
not making recover properly. Because if you don't understand the situation, you could actually cause
a lot of harm, right? Now imagine if someone has, you know, back pain or back injury and they're not
		

			able to bend all the way down and they're just bending slightly, and you go and try to stop that
mancha with your hand and you press their back, you could cause them serious damage. So you must
understand the situation of people before you correct them before you commend them before you forbid
them. Likewise, sometimes what happens is that a person has just been corrected. Let's say the child
has been corrected by the Father and now the mother comes in, she also corrects and then the
grandmother comes in, she auto corrects and then the uncle comes in, he also corrects, so what's
gonna happen to the poor child, he's gonna get so fed up, right? So when you know that the Father
		

			has already advised the child, then as a mother remain silent, do not pester Allah subhanaw taala
says in the Quran less thoroughly him be more safely. You are not a controller over them. Alright,
so you don't have to stand on people's heads and nag them nag them until they do what you're telling
them you tell them and you leave or if you see that someone else is dealing with the situation then
you let them deal with it. And part of this is also you know, sometimes a person is not in the mood
to listen to any good advice. And if you start advising them at that time, if you start telling
		

			And then what is right what is wrong? What are they going to do? They're going to get more
rebellious and of committing a greater wrong because of your advice. So be careful also
understanding people and their situation. Part of this is that any the moment you see someone that
is not the time when you start advising them first have some kind of small talk with them. Right?
And then you talk to them about what you need to tell them or what you feel you need to tell them in
sometimes what happens is that we don't make any small talk No, Salem, no, how are you know, how's
everything immediately? Did you pray your sunnah? Did you pray, he let the other person catch a
		

			breath, let them sit down, have some water, let them finish what they're doing. So understand people
and their situation before you approach them very important. And the fourth of is a riff. riff is
gentleness, no matter who it is that you are advising your commanding, you are telling them to do
what is right you are forbidding them from something that is wrong. You must come from a place of
compassion. Any there must be a riff, there must be gentleness and there must be in each should be
done in a good manner. Because as we learn in these gentleness is not in anything except that it
adorns it. And harshness is not in anything except that it more is it. So be gentle. Then the fifth
		

			condition is Sobor patience and composure. This means that, first of all, have SABR in getting your
point across any don't rush it. Talk to people slowly so that they can understand. And also somebody
is that be prepared for some pushback, be prepared for even some retaliation. It won't be the case
that you tell someone to do something good, or you stop them from something wrong, and they say
thank you to Zack. Hello. Hi Ron. Samira. Now, we're aterna No, that's not always the response that
you're going to receive. We see that the prophets of Allah were persecuted, they were mocked. They
were called names. So I'm gonna build my roof. Now here in Mancha, it can be risky work, it is not
		

			for the faint hearted. So somebody is necessary with yourself in getting your point across and in
dealing with the pushback. So yeah, we're gonna build my roof when Hona Anil mancha these are some
other job. Now, the thing is that as human beings, we are not perfect, right? Sometimes we are blind
to our own mistakes. And if we say that to each their own, you know, just mind your own business,
then we're basically saying accept everything, and let people do wrong and let people you know,
continue to make mistakes. So if everything should be accepted, then is there anything right and is
there anything wrong? If we say to each their own than what is right and what is wrong? Allah
		

			subhanaw taala revealed this law revealed this book not so that it is ignored, but so that it is
followed, right. So we all have a responsibility to follow what Allah subhanaw taala has revealed
and to also help others follow what Allah subhanaw taala has revealed. So Allah subhanaw taala says,
What will I Iike whom will mostly Hone and those are the ones who are truly those who are
successful, any those who command what is right for bid what is wrong, who call others to good, they
are the ones who are truly the successful ones. So in our one maruf, and in the here and one car is
success, not without it, and the Prophet sallallahu lucidum warned us, he said, When sin is
		

			committed in the earth, He who sees it and disapproves of it will be taken like one who was not
present, but he who was not present and approves of it will be like him who witnessed it Subhanallah
any when there is something wrong being done, and you happen to witness it. But as you witness it,
you say in your heart, this is wrong, or you try to stop it with your tongue with your hands, then
if you try to stop it, or you say in your heart this is wrong, then you are like someone who was not
even present over there like someone who did not witness that wrong. But if someone was not there,
when that sin was being committed, and they just heard about that sin being committed, and they
		

			approve on it, they like it, then it is as if they witnessed it themselves. So which group do you
belong to? The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam also said If any man is among the people in whose
midst he does act of disobedience, and though they are able to make him change his actions, but they
do not stop him.
		

			And then Allah subhanaw taala will smite all of them with punishment before they die Subhan Allah.
So it is not just the perpetrator who is guilty, it is the silent observers who are also guilty. So
I'm Edwin maruf. Now here in Mancha, it is necessary to save ourselves, the prophets of Allah Who
are you send them all to set by the one in whose hand is my soul, either you command good and forbid
evil or Allah will soon send upon you a punishment from him, then you will call upon Him, but He
will not respond to you. So the key to success in the world and in the era is what that a person
invites others to what is good, they command what is right, they forbid what is wrong. This is how a
		

			person is successful in the world. They're successful near Allah, and this is how they will attain
salvation.
