You're smart enough to have here heard about Zaid Bin favic. You
know very, very well why there's one version of the Quran. I hope.
Okay, you know what Uthman did? Khalif uzman did. This has been
documented by who that that event actually took place.
I don't have the footnote on that one. That's a good question,
Patrick. I can get that for you, though, once again, you saw what
he did. He went right to his great miracle, the book, the Quran, and
he said, Look at the Quran is so much more reliable than the Bible,
because the Bible has errors in it. People, of course, call the
gospel books Matthew Mark, Luke and John. Well, they call them
Matthew Mark, Luke and John, because we don't know who wrote
these books, and there's no point calling them Sam, Fred, Jerry and
Harry. I mean, they're, they're written by people. We don't know
who they were written by in the Quran doesn't it's a perfect book.
Even if you burn every Quran on Earth, Earth, we will bring it
back, cover to cover, cover,
page for page.
You're looking at one of the oldest fragments of the Quran ever
discovered. I was
explaining
how much respect I have for the faith
of
Islam. I Angel.
Assalamu,
Alaikum. How are you?
So we're bringing on a expert in this area of the Quran, someone
who's dedicated their life to the Quran, memorize the Quran. He's an
expert exegesis of the Quran, the tafsir of the Quran. And you have
someone out there who's caught up in a lie. I don't have the
footnote on that one. That's a good question, Patrick, and many
lies. And we're going to go ahead and for this, true seekers out
there, we're going to clear up much of the misinformation.
Individual that did this. Is this the person who we're talking
about? Zaid? Yes, yes. He has a big platform that he's on this
peepyd Podcast, and he's a very well known preacher, and so he
says that Zayed bin Thabit did a great job,
and yet there were different versions that came out of it. And
the third Caliph Khalif Uthman,
said, Zayed bin Thaba, I'm hiring you. We're going to destroy all
these variants of the Quran, and you're going to put together the
one true Quran. And that's why Zayed bin Thaba did so, that's why
we had just one particular thing, Caliph Uthman. What he did was he
destroyed all the Qurans that disagreed with the one that he
chose. So he's got his own that he chose, and all these other ones
that are out there, they make it see there's all these other
versions. And then he wants everyone to go by his so he
destroys everything else. So he hires, you know, pays Zayd and
Thabit. The individual that did this is this the person who were
talking about Zaid. So who was he? He was a guy who Mohammed trusted.
Go ahead and help him with this. He all the different Qurans that
were identical, and you have Zaid to decide what's the real thing
now. So this is, how would you answer this shit after I say that,
they get together and they say, yeah, that did happen that way.
And so we, we don't have an argument, but I should get the
footnote. That's a very good point. Patrick, first,
it's very important to point out that the Quran being the final
revelation from Allah subhanaw taala, the way that it's been
compiled, it's completely different than what human beings,
they even perceive of how compilation should be. It's the
highest level of preserving any book. And there's no like of it.
There's no book on the face of earth that has been compiled like
the Quran. What I'm saying the highest level of authenticity,
because it's in the hearts of men, which is comes before anything
that is written. If someone would write anything, you can ask all
kinds of questions, what? What's the proof that this is really that
person wrote this, but rather, if it's in the hearts of the people.
And this is how the Quran, when Allah subhanaw taala, this is the
speech of Allah, Allah subhanaw taala revealed it to the Prophet
alayhi, salatu, salam, the Prophet ayus. Whenever the revelation
comes, he would recite the Quran. He would recite it. And the
scribers, they were ordered to write what the prophet Aliyah
recited. So the writing comes as a secondary thing. The recitation is
what's first. And this Quran was recited in the Salawat, in the
prayers, whether it's obligatory prayers, optional prayers, the
Prophet alayhi wa salatu, salaam, he would lead the Salah with Al
Baqarah and Nisa and Ali Imran as one Sahabi would pray behind the
Prophet Aliyah saw to Salam. So it was not bits and pieces verses
that somebody might forget, or so many people of the Sahaba radi
Alam, they would memorize the Quran in their hearts. And this is
what Allah subhanaw taala stated clearly.
The Quran, balua, Ayato Bey Netanyahu, but rather the ayat of
the Quran, the verses of the Quran, are in the hearts, in the
* of men, the people of knowledge. So this is how the the
Quran was revealed to the prophet Ali Soto Sam, this is how it was
preserved. So it was already preserved. Plus, of course, the
fact that Allah subhanaw taala says in the Nachman is in the
Vikram way in the hafidul, we are the ones that would protect and
guard the Quran. When the Prophet Abu Salam turned to ALLAH SubhanA
died, then at the time of Abu Bakr Al JAL, this was the first
compilation, physically, as far as the text is concerned, this was
not commanded by the Prophet alayhi salatu wassalam, because
really this is not a mandatory thing, because, again, it's in the
hearts of the people so but Abu Bakr Al ja, he collected the Quran
to be in a text when many people have been dying in the battles and
so on, to make sure that even that mean of making sure that
everything is preserved is to be written, but not that The Quran.
How it, you know, came to the prophet Ali. So Hussain was just
in the form of a book, and people have to go to the book, and that's
the only book that they finally discovered that they will decide
the Quran, it's ready in their lives. They're implementing it.
They're reciting it. And they would so many narrations on the
companions of the alaranum reciting the Quran in their homes.
They would finish it was well, well known among the companions of
the Prophet, alias of Salam, that they would finish recitation of
the Quran every seven days. Every seven days. This is a well known
khatma, as they call it, where a person would recite the Quran from
the beginning to the end, the entire book without a without a
book by heart. This is an oral tradition, right? Or if someone
wants to read from it, they would read, but this is was, as they
call it, this as hotmad, that is well known, not by one individual,
even us as Muslims. When someone asks how long I should recite the
Quran, it's one month. Two months. If someone is able to recite the
Quran, they would say, one month is good, two months as Max, as
some of the now, Ira, him Allah, he said. But when they talk about
the subject, they say that the companions of the Allah anom, it
was well known among them that they would finish the recitation
of the Quran every seven days. So something like this during the
life of the prophet Aliyah, saw to Sam. There's no significance of of
writing it down, having is it as a text. There's no like of the book
of the Quran. But this is again to show how Allah subhanaw taala
preserved it with all means, one of which that Abu Bakr Al Janu
said, let's bring it all together physically, so that you know, to
make sure that we have we're taking all of the means for it.
How do you feel now? Like, if someone's a you're a professor in
this area, this is your expertise. How do you feel? Like, what goes
to your mind, what when you're hearing someone like this, trying
to represent the Quran in this way, being someone who imagines
someone is a university professor, and he's teaching a he's an expert
in math, or he's an expert in science, and, you know, it's a
consensus among scientists that something, or it's a consensus in
math or whatever subject, that this is The way they all the
professors know, there's no disagreement in this area, but now
you have this person, layman, comes up and he starts to, you
know, butcher. What do you what goes to your mind? This is an
example, right? Is when someone have a really different mindset,
and then they try to explain things from their own perspective.
And again, as I said, you know, when people look at the Bible for
you, translation of the Greek New Testament done in the 1600s by
King James Greek scholars, is going to say, How art thou? When
was the last time Patrick, someone came up to you and said, How art
thou? People, of course, call the gospel books Matthew, Mark, Luke
and John. Well, they call them Matthew, Mark, Luke and John,
because we don't know who wrote these books, and there's no point
calling them Sam, Fred, Jerry and Harry. I mean, they're they're
written by people. We don't know who they were written by. They are
anonymous. You might not think so, because they have the title, the
Gospel. According to Matthew, whoever put that title on it was
an editor. Later, the followers of Jesus were Aramaic speaking
peasants from Galilee, lower class men who were not educated. In
fact, Peter and John in Acts, chapter four, verse 13, are
literally said to be illiterate. They couldn't read and write. Of
course not. They were fishermen. They didn't go to school. The vast
majority of people in the ancient world never learned to read, let
alone right? And their native language was Aramaic. These books
are written in Greek by highly educated, rhetorically trained
writers who are skilled in Greek composition. Nobody memorized the
Bible from the beginning to the end. So the way they look at the
Bible is through the manuscripts. When it comes to the Quran, that's
why things have been changed and altered. But Allah subhanahu wa
decreed that this final book is going to be preserved from the
beginning to the end. So the way it's preserved is completely
different than what people think it's like. For example, when
someone look at the religion of Al Islam from a Christianity point of
view, it doesn't work.
It that way you know, because you know things has to be looked into
from the perspective of how things were. So there is no doubt, and
this is consensus among the Ulama, and that's why, when you see east
and the west, a small child would have the same Quran recited as an
older one, not just now, but from the time of the Prophet
sallallahu, sallam. And you have companions of the Prophet Aliyah
saw to Sam, when even at the time of Uthman or the Allahu anhu, when
he made a committee to make sure not it's already been compiled.
Abu Bakr Anu physically compiled it at the time of Ummah, nothing
of that happened. There was no need at the time of Uthman or the
Allahu anhu, the subject of Al qarat, the different style of
recitation, and people would recite in their own way of accents
and dialect and things like this, which is already been revealed the
Quran has this flexibility in it by the revelation from Allah. So
rathmet al Anu, he was worried that people now, with increase of
people embracing the deen of Al Islam, that people will say things
from their own so that's why this the second compilation, is not
compiling the Quran again, it's already been compiled. It's the
different styles of recitation. So to bring it back on, the speech of
the people of Quraysh, and the evidence of that they're all
authentic is what the prophet aliased in authentic hadith that
the Quran has been revealed in seven letters, seven styles, and
he said, and each one of you kuln Chef, and that every recitation is
sufficient, is perfect. There is no there's nothing missing from
one recitation versus the other. So one is sufficient. And that's
why, when he brought it together on the tongue or the style of the
people of Quraysh, so that people would not start to do things with
different recitation. There's so many examples, but again, it's
difficult to explain to someone when they don't know even the
Arabic language. And I will give you one example, if you don't
mind, there's, for example, one word in the Quran. There are many
like this, like the word Lev behanah, right? And this is
mentioned by Sulaiman alaihi salam when he said that he would
slaughter the bird, the Hupo, right, if he does not bring the
information from the Queen of Sheba. So the word, when it's
written in Arabic, right, it says, which means, I would slaughter
him. But if there's another style of writing it that would separate
the the lamb from the Elif so if someone today would read it, they
would read it, I would not slaughter him, but it's already
one of the one of the ways of or the styles of writing Arabic, and
the Arabs they would understand before they read. And this is a
unique thing for the Arabic language that many people do not
know. If you read English, what happens you read and then you try
to understand correct in Arabic. It's not the same in Arabic, you
have to understand before you read so that you read correctly. You
have to look at the sentence, and you have to understand what is
being said before you read it, you understand what I say, so the
words and the context and how even the vowels and things like this.
So that's why, even when they wrote it like this, they
understood that the Arabs would not say it wrong, because it's
clearly the the word means that he would slaughter, and no one would
have differences in this, this consensus. But again, the style of
writing, that's why there was no dots. And then they put dots. And
so these types of things people might not understand if they don't
comprehend the Arabic language, and that's what he just made it to
be under one style of writing, so that the recitation comes first.
And this is another important point. The Quran is preserved in
its recitation, so it's recited first, and then the writing is a
secondary thing. So we write based on what we hear, not the opposite,
not that we have a manuscript, and we recite it based on what the
manuscript is. Nowadays, everything is printed. So if
someone doesn't know what the Quran, what's in the Quran, he
opens the Quran and he reads. It wasn't preserved like this.
Nothing is written, and it's in the hearts of the people. People
recited, and from the recitation, they would write, which is the
highest level of authenticity. No one can question that whatsoever.
People can do a test right now. They can go on YouTube and type in
Mecca Qur'an recitation and see all the people praying there in
Mecca. You have millions of people coming through Mecca, and then you
have the Imam there leading the prayer. If somebody had any
objections, if somebody's doing something wrong, they correct them
right away, wouldn't they? They stop them. There's none of that.
Everything that there's you've memorized the Quran. We have kids
as young as, what, 678, years old, and memorized this entire book. So
it's not that's the the framework now has to be corrected. It's an
oral tradition, and that is the miracle right there. And to add to
this, even with with that point of the Quran being preserved, with
the way that people recited and they would make correction, that
it's it's not just that. It happened at the time.
Time of the of the Prophet alias. But this is a miraculous thing
that Allah subhanaw taala preserved it in such a way that
people would would even make sure that they understand what
everything is said and recited at the time of the Prophet alias, and
not afterwards. So these are clear lies then, I mean, he's just
lying. I don't have the footnote on that one. That's a good
question, Patrick, I can get that for you, though. He said, here
again, Othman, Zaid, did a great job, yet there were different
versions that came out from it. Othman told Zaid, I'm hiring you.
We are going to destroy all these variants, and you're going to put
together the one true Quran. This is a statement that is mentioned
in the athana, in the traditions. But what are the different
variants again, when it comes to what's written? So now we have
something written, and the different styles of writing and
some of the recitation, you would have a letter here, different than
the letter there. So for example, where aminu wa Amanu famine, they
then they believed verses. They believed, you know, just letters
that which is actually one of the miraculous things about the Quran,
with the different style of recitation that it gives you,
enriches the meaning, right? So therefore, Yub, serun, tube,
serun, they would see, versus they, you know, they would see or
meaning the second person would in the plural, tense verses in the
third person. So the meaning is not changed, and this is all
revealed to the Prophet Abu Salto SEM and recited to the Prophet
alias in these styles of recitation. So that's why, when
it's written, whether it's the style of writing that can be
different from one era to the other, versus the different
letters that might be changed according to the revelation, not
that it's people would make a mistake, no, it's already part of
the revelation that it would have the same word in different styles,
so that it gives more meanings and it reaches the meanings. And this
is how some of the recitation of the Quran that people study now,
and you would find even children, they would memorize the Quran in
the different styles of recitation. It's not adding a
chapter or taking a verse out or something like this. It's the word
slightly changes to enrich the meaning. And again, the important
point here is, with the Quran being present today, if someone
says, Well, it changed at the time of mine. Of course, it didn't. But
the miraculous nature of the Quran, no one can bring the like
of a surah of it, and it's still valid till today, because Allah
subhanaw taala challenged humanity. If this is what you
think it's the words of human beings, then bring not the like of
the entire Quran, bring the like of one chapter of the Quran, and
no one can, and no one would be able to. So this is a very clear
even with what we have today, which is the same as what we had
at the time of the Prophet alias taught us now, when we say
different versions you have, for instance, now, contrasting that,
with all due respect to our
Christian viewers out there,
you have Bible scholars. Do you have Quran scholars saying that
different verses, ayahs are taken out of the Quran, as you do have,
say, the duray
version of the Quran, for instance, the Catholic version of
Quran has certain amount of books, and then the Protestant version
has those books thrown out, and then you have orthodox also have
their version. And you have chunks and chunks in these different
versions of passages are taken out here and in here they're not
there. And it's like, hold on, is that what you have with the Quran?
So then we say, because he was trying to paint it like a version,
is just a translation.
But that's not the case. It's not it's the exact words that were
revealed to the Prophet Aliyah, salatul, Salam. So how many
versions of the Quran are there just one? Right? The different
styles, which is called qirat, way of reciting, the style of reciting
the Quran that can, again, as I said, if it's if it's a one word,
whether it's in the passive tense or in the past tense, the meaning
is the same. But who's the one that would decide that this is
passive or past? It's already in the Revelation, not someone that
introduced it to the revelation. So what they try to do is they try
to say, Okay, gotcha here. Look, but you're burning Qurans. Why are
you burning Qurans? Here's the thing every one individual people
from the east and the west, and that's why Uthman Abdullahi
ordered for the copies that people have personal copies, to bring all
of these things to him. It's not like an authentic organization
printing the Quran. This is an individual at his home. He writes
whatever he recites right. So a person might write in the right
way, might write in a different way for him to understand, but
it's not the the stable way or the one that is consistent.
It with everybody to understand, like, for example, if I if I'm
writing something, you might not be able to read my handwriting,
and someone else might, and I might make my own signs while I'm
writing, because it's a personal thing, a personal copy for myself.
So this is where he basically collected all of the personal
copies that people have, and he burned them so that they all
according to one style. Now the many Muslims and many people are
embracing in the deen of Al Islam, and it's going to the east and the
west, and the area is So expanding so these personal preferences in
writing, it's to destroy all of that. It's like the same thing is
practiced till today, when we have an old Mushaf Quran that is old
and things like that. We burn it. It's a way to honor the Quran, to
burn it so that nobody would tamper with it, or nobody would
take from it. But it's not there the physical copies torn and
things like this in any part of the world, if one page of the
Quran is missing, you know, somebody cut it, for example, or
it get cut, then we need to burn that copy so that nobody would
read it wrong. And this is how things are. So it's to honor the
Quran. When He burned the Quran, it's to honor the Quran to make
sure that the style of writing is consistent. Then he sent it to the
Egypt one and Kufa one, so that people would always refer to the
same style of writing that did not change anything towards in the
hearts of the people. Again, like the Arkansas says, it's the same
Quran that they recite when this went to Egypt and Iraq and things
and Hashem, it's already been people, 1000s and millions of
people are reciting the Quran, the same Quran, every day in their
prayers. You know, unlike, for example, the Bible and things like
this, we recite the Quran Muslims. They hear the Quran every mehshay
and fajr prayer. And the prophet Ali ASA Hussain in fajr prayer,
especially the morning one, he would recite average of 60 verses
in the prayer. And sometimes, for example, the prophet Aliyah satu
Sam recited Surah Al araf in its entirety. And Muay Ibn Jabil
RadiAllahu, anhu, when the Prophet Ari saram condemned an egg that he
did is because that he would go to his people and lead them in the
Salah. And one time he recited Surah Al Baqarah in salatul. Ashe,
the longest surah in the Quran from the beginning to the end. The
prophet Ali saram, he said to him, a fat wife, you're making fitna.
You're causing people to be you're in a trial behind you in the Salah
because they want to leave the salah. And one of them left the
Salah the praise because it's too long. Surat Al Baqarah will take
an hour recitation. So he told them not to make a long Sala like
this, tabligatory salah. But the fact here, the point that I'm
trying to make here, is, this is at the time of the Prophet Aliyah,
saw to Sam, the revelation is not over yet. And as a heavy a
companion at ease reciting the longest Surah of the Quran from
the beginning to the end in one Raqqa in one unit of the sale. And
this is one example. So you have different companions of the last
final measurement of mankind. Paramaham, peace and blessed be
upon him who wrote down the Quran. And they might have had some
footnotes like you were saying their handwriting, this person
might not be able to read yours as he does his. And now, to avoid any
confusion, they call everybody who had any thing of their own. And
was there rioting? Was there a protest? Was there, was there, was
there people like, you know, schism, like half objective,
because they're gonna leave out certain verses Ayas from the
Quran. This is a good point, because, again, it's, it was ijma
consensus. So nobody protested, none of the companions of the
alarm. They said, No, this is wrong. 100%
they all agree, right? I mean, that's and when some of the
nations that says, some of the companions that at first, they
kind of didn't like for this to happen, they were worried that
they're doing something the Prophet Aliyah saw didn't do. But
then after it was done, they felt pleased that this is what
happened, and not just the issue of handwriting, even the styles of
the dialect of the different tribes, which is also part of the
revelation to avoid any misunderstanding of things like
this. You know, this is what happened.
I mean, this is brilliant. I mean, it just shows the authenticity,
how the preservation of it, and there's nothing matched to it.
It's just amazing. And it's still a living miracle, and then to hear
someone come and just blunder and just outright, you know, just it's
like kind of someone's hat. There have some facts, there some truth,
but then they twist it, and they take it away from the consensus of
how Muslim scholars understand it. And he's making his own opinion,
and he's leaving off the professors in the university and
everybody there, and just coming up with his own you cannot feel
for such a thing, because this is how things are with the previous
books. Yeah. You know, look for example, for the Bible, yeah. So,
so the argument is, what is he making? The argument that there's
King James Version, NIV New International Version, there's
this, is that? What the argument that the fellow.
Busy with something. So just the fact that he, you know, frowned at
his face, Allah subhanahu revealed verses in the Quran saying Abu
Asmaa that, why did you do that to this blind Companion of the
prophet Ali saw to uslam, and he was even blind. So this is to
perfect the Prophet, alayhi salatu waslam, that he's very perfect,
and to make sure that things are done in the right way. And this
is, again, if the Quran is something that you know people,
they get together to do it with where they don't have the
capacity, because it's miraculous, yeah. So not only, I mean, we it's
built on the whole message of Islam. We'll get to that towards
the end of the pure, absolute monotheism, like nothing else out
there, purely worshiping one and only one God being morally
upright, and you have miracles upon miracles in the crown embryo
in the Quran cannot be based on scientific knowledge In the
Seventh, Seventh Century,
Mohammed could not have known these facts about human
development in the seventh century, because most of them were
not discovered until the 20th century. These facts could only
have been revealed to Muhammad but the one no one who knows all about
it, for anyone so sincere looks at it. We talked, one of the miracles
is preservation. You have the signs that are in there about the
human development, the mountains acting, the stabilizers, the
barrier between the seas. I mean, just countless proofs. There's no
way that he could have known all these. Now, these are details for
any person like we just mentioned. There's another one interesting
that he didn't say inshallah. And then what happened, right? When
the Prophet Alisa was not saying Allah in an incident, that means,
God willing, right? God willing. Then Surah Al kahfu was revealed.
The Surah, an entire Surah Al kahfu was revealed at the Quran
daily, Satan in the Fayette and Illah, ayasha Allah, do not see
for anything that I would do tomorrow or in the future, unless
you see, inshaAllah, what's the context of that. So people were
approaching him and asking him questions, and then he was excited
to give the answer. He said, I'll tell you tomorrow. But he didn't
say, God willing. And that's what Allah subhanaw taala revealed to
the Prophet
and SubhanAllah. Even, even more, when you have major incidents that
happens at the life of the prophet, Aliyah, saw to Salam. And
none of that is mentioned in the Quran. You know, usually, as a
human being, if you get affected by something major happen in your
life, you know, and the Quran is being revealed, you would mention
something in there. No names are mentioned in the Quran. The only
time the tribe of Quraysh that were in war against the Prophet
alayhi wa Salatu was mention. Is only one time in the Quran the
word Quraysh, that's the only time Abu Jahl is not mentioned there
the chief of Quraysh that would try to hurt the Prophet alias, saw
to uslam, the only one with his name that is mentioned, for
example, is Abu hab, one time only, the uncle of the Prophet Ali
Sama, which is a miraculous thing in itself, when the verses were
revealed that he is from among the people of the hafiq, as some of
the scholars they say, if Abu Lahab, the uncle of the Prophet,
want to destroy the entire religion of Islam. He could have
just lying come out to the people and say, shadu Allah Muhammad,
Rasulullah, Muslim. Now that means what that means the Quran is
wrong, because the Quran says that he will die as a disbeliever while
he was still alive. So he can simply come and say, Well, I'm a
Muslim now. So that means the Quran is not correct. And that
didn't happen. Allah subhanaw taala sealed his heart, and this
is the end of his life. He died as a disbeliever. And many, many
things, you know, the characteristics of the people. The
Quran is valid at all times for every individual, every corner of
this of this earth, people can benefit from it because it talks
about human beings, the characteristics of the believers,
the characteristics of the disbelievers, the characters the
hypocrites, even the stories in the Quran is for people today to
learn from it. It's not a personal journal that a person is writing
affecting affected by the things that happens in his life. It's
universal at all times, at all places, fits perfectly the needs
of the human being. One thing I love about you is you're very
academic. You're very authentic. So if I ever say anything, you're
our teacher, you can adjust and help us. And I wish this pastor
minister, he would come learn from people like yourself, from the
Muslim.
Scholars and
others now who are looking for the truth. There is a situation here,
and we just had recently the assassination attempt on former
President Donald Trump. And I was thinking, I said, Wow. I mean, you
have answers to why one person died and who wasn't planning on
that happening to him, and he death reached him at the at the
the rally there, but the former president, he just got his ear the
bullet was going for him, and he just got scratched. But another
person died. And I was reflecting over this Ayah from the Quran,
because atheist doesn't have answers to this, but the Quran
does. It says, and it is not possible. This is in chapter
three, 145 of the Quran. And it's not possible for one to die except
by the permission of Allah God at a decree time. This is amazing, so
Islam gives the answers to that. And I was talking about also how
the Prophet Muhammad SAW some at his time, he had his secret
service, or his bodyguards, his companions, right in the
beginning. And then this Ayah from the Quran came down, chapter five,
verse six, saying, Oh messenger, convey everything revealed to you
from your Lord. And if you do not, then you have not delivered the
message, Allah. This is the point here. Allah is the Creator of the
heavens and earth. Will certainly protect you from the people I make
this example. Imagine if Trump said, Look, God will protect me.
And he let go of his secret service, he wouldn't last long. So
Prophet Muhammad, he had about the scholars of the sera history of
his life, some have calculated about 30 assassination attempts on
his life. But when this ayah, is it true that when this verse was
ayah was revealed, he told him to go home, right? That's That's
correct. The Prophet sallallahu sallam, used to have people by his
door, you know? And then once the verse was revealed, and by the
way, the Arabs, they did not have physical, wooden door doors for
their homes. It's a curtain, something like this. So once that
verse was revealed to Allah, come in and nest, which means Allah
will protect you from the people, he said to them, Go Allah. This is
like. This is just unbelievable. Same thing as one of the people.
When the prophet Ali saw to some, with the Companions coming back
from from one of the battles, and the Prophet sallallahu sallam, was
sleeping under a tree, yes, under the shade of a tree. And a man
came and the prophet Ali saw to some. All of a sudden, he woke up,
and this man has the sword in his hand, and he's saying to the
prophet, and he's up, he's standing, and the Prophet is
laying down. So he said, many am now Kamini, who now will protect
you from me. So the Prophet Aliyah saw to some call me. He said,
Allah, Allah, Subhanahu, the sword fell from the hand of this man. So
this is something like that. You know what a person would do in
that situation with all of his enemies. And there are many
examples of this, you break right there, right there. Your real side
comes off. You're an impostor. You're like, please my life. Spare
me how much money you need. No. He's like, Allah. God will protect
me. Allah, the Almighty, will continue. God, Allah, subhanaw
taala promised that this religion will be completed. You know, when
the one, one of the last verses were revealed, when the Prophet,
peace be upon him. Was in the Farewell Pilgrimage when the eye
was revealed. Alima Akilah, khamdina, Kumu atlam. Adina, on
that day I had completed your religion, perfected my favor upon
you and pleased for you to have the religion of Al Islam as your
religion. So the Prophet, sallAllahu, sallam, did not die
till the entire revelation was completed, perfected. Everything
that is needed till the Day of Judgment is comprehensively
established, no missing in it whatsoever. I want people to
really reflect over this at any time. Look, he's saying, Go this
ayah. Verse comes down, Allah, God will protect you. Allah will
protect you from the people at any time. If he died, we wouldn't have
Islam today. Is that right? The Quran wouldn't be here today. And
then you're just give an example you had. This is one assassination
attempt. The guy comes to kill him. There's almost they got 29
more to go. We'll go over a few more of those. I mean, this is
profound, because this is divine protection. This is a prediction
that he's not going to die, be killed by his enemies. And then
Shay. Is it right that to stress really what was happening at that
time and how dire the situation was after him, the three other
caliph, the predecessors, Omar dilahan, he died during fajr
prayer. Is that right? Assassinated
with Ali on his way to the masjid, he was assassinated. They were all
assassinated.
I mean, just imagine that again, the ease of things and the
accessibility that people had at that time, you know, and with all
of that, it's just a matter. It's not in the human capacity. And
this is basically what the religion of Islam teaches.
Says, to rely upon Allah. Let's go about. I got another one, another
assassination attempt. When the tribes came together and he just
got the green light to migrate to Medina, that's another
assassination attempt. Could we discuss go ahead of Al hijra, when
the Prophet sallallahu sallam, migrated from Mecca to Al Medina,
and the Companions they migrated before him, and the Prophet, peace
be upon him, would not leave till he's given the permission by
Almighty God to leave. So then, when the permission came and he
informed Abu Bakr Al RadiAllahu, Anhu to be his companion in the
migration,
and he made Aliyah, RadiAllahu, Anhu to stay in his position. For
what reason? So that he can give the money that people entrusted
the Prophet alias, that they came with it. That's unbelievable. Can
we stop right there? I mean, this is unbelievable. I don't for
people hearing this for the first time. I mean, these people are
coming to assassinate you, and he's leaving his companion to give
back, because they didn't have banks at that time. They used to
leave their possessions with him, money and whatever their things
are worth with him, and he's giving it back. He didn't have to
do that. The very amazing thing that I'm not sure if you can find
the like of it whatsoever his enemies that they would do all
these types of things and try to kill him. They would call him a
Saddam. They would call him the most truthful, and he's the most
honest and trustworthy person. And for your enemy to say that about
you, and they would keep their valuables with him so that that
will they will be secure, that nobody will take it. And he did
not want to leave unless it's guaranteed that they would get
back their valuables that they left with him. This is the trust
and the truthfulness that he has, and that's why he left alib, Abu
Talib behind. And that's why, when they surrounded the house and they
decided that they would kill him, the only concern that they had is
that, because of the tribal issues, that if one individual
killed the Prophet, peace be upon him, maybe his tribe will seek
revenge from that tribe. So to figure that out, and it was a
ibili Shaytan idea that all of the tribes, all of them, they bring a
man from every tribe, and they all hit him, one hit, so that
basically, his blood will be spread all over. That means no one
will his tribe would not go after all of the tribes, of course. So
that's what they did, and when they surrounded the house, and
this is mentioned in Surat ya seen how Allah subhanaw taala protected
the Prophet Aliyah saw to Sam, and he commanded him to leave the
house. And he left the house. Alias saw to Sam. When they all
freezing standing, Allah made them not see the Prophet Aliyah saw to
Sam, and even took some dust, Handful of Dust, and he would
throw it on their faces like this while he walked through them and
went in his journey of Al Hijrah to Al Medina. And then after he
left, all of a sudden, their senses came back to them. And when
they entered, and they uncovered the cover, and they found Ali Abu
Talib, and not the Prophet, you're walking out of your house and you
got gangsters there ready to take your life. You're running back in.
You're going to crack right there. Same thing with the guy under the
tree where He's taking a rest. You crack, that's it. But he's again,
he's got divine protection, and he's doing what you're saying in
this authentic narration. This is profound, the only man that you
would find everything preserved about his life, his speech, his
actions. No one is the like of the Prophet Salla Sal, and he's the
perfect man ever walked on the face of earth, and how he relied
upon Allah, and how his actions, how his man is, with his enemies,
with his friends. It's something that, really, it's a shameful
thing that human beings are not researching enough to look at the
life of the final messenger of Allah, because he's the messenger
of all he's a he's a messenger for Patrick and David, for this
Christian priest chair, they can reject but just like people who
reject Jesus, if we reject Jesus, we can go to the hellfire.
Correct? That's the truth. You're, I mean, you're the scholar here.
Look, if you reject Jesus as a Muslim, you say any derogatory
thing, this can land you a ticket in hellfire if a Muslim says
anything that is less than praise and perfect to any other prophets
of Allah, including Jesus, the son of Mary. This is an act of
disbelief, blasphemy that takes the Muslim outside the food of Al
Islam. And therefore every messenger was sent to his people.
And the final messenger, Muhammad, sallAllahu, sallam, he was sent to
all mankind. And when it comes to being sent to all mankind or sent
to the people. There's no caution matters of religion, inviting them
if they believe it's good for them, if they don't believe, no
one is going to go after them. But the message becomes very clear
that if they continue to be in that state in the Hereafter, then
this is the justice of Allah subhanahu wa revealed clearly
what's going to happen to the disbelievers in the Day of
Judgment. Now you heard that here on the Dean show. Clip that and
send that to your Christian friends and neighbors and to this
pastor and Patrick and David and the like, very important. You
disrespect Jesus and Islam, you end up in the hellfire. Let's
continue on. They didn't have bullets at that time, but they had
boulders. Since we're on the topic of now proofs and evidences,
you've got divine protection. Is it?
True that they also tried to assassinate him with a boulder to
try to drop it on his head. Can you talk about that? And the
Prophet, alias of Sam, was invited to by a Jewish Lady and the people
to eat Bey. And the prophet had some of his companions with him.
And when he said, to eat Aliyah, and that's another thing, the
Prophet, peace be upon him, would not reject any invitation, his
manners and his kindness to the people. So while he's sitting and
they have already plotted the method that they would throw
something from above to crush the Prophet aliasament to kill him. So
once he sat down, Jibril Angel, Jibreel came to him and inspired
him that this is what the plan is. So he left, you know, and all of
that plan was, of course, by the will of Allah subhanaw taala did
not guru, that's another assassination attempt. They tried
to poison him. You talk about that also, and that, that also was
foiled. And the animal spoke and warned the Prophet, peace be upon
him from this right so again, and the protection of the Prophet,
peace be upon him is to convey the message, this is as a mercy to
mankind. You know, it wasn't because of the Prophet Aliyah saw
to Sam as a person, because the best for the Prophet, peace be
upon him, is what's with Allah. That's why, at the moment of
death, when the prophet Ali saw to Sam, was given the choice. Every
prophet was given that choice, whether to go forward and die or
to stay longer in this life. And the Prophet alayhi salatu wassam,
he looked to the skies and he said Berlin, but rather the highest or
the exalted companionship, he wanted them to return to Allah. So
having you know that the protection of the Prophet
sallallahu Sallam is to preserve the religion. He has a mission has
to be fulfilled. And once the mission was fulfilled, this is
what even the Prophet sallallahu sallam, he, he gave the companions
the condolences for his own self, you know, with regards to the last
Surah that was said, was revealed, Ida ja Anu Sullivan So the Prophet
Aliyah saw to us. And he addressed the companions of the Allah Anu,
and only Abu Bakr Rajya Anu understood. And he start weeping.
And he said, you know, this is the sign that the Prophet Aliyah, satu
Sam life is ending. So the protection was to make sure. Or,
of course, Allah is the almighty is for the revelation to be
completed and perfected. So there's no need for another
messenger to come, because he's the final messenger of Allah,
well, a few more. Let's This is very, very interesting, mind
blowing. I mean, it's an Iman boost, for those who don't
understand the faith boost, because it's evidence upon
evidence. It's easy to find an imposter, a con man. I mean, you
can sniff that out. You can go through the literature, but if
you're sincere, you'll see there's no way. He was offered the money,
the women, the power, all of these things, to abandon this call, and
he kept persistently calling people to what, to worship the
Creator, not the creation. So much. So there was a bounty hunter
that he was an expert now in catching people, and he's on his
way. It was Abu Bakr Sadiq, his companion in him. Can you talk
about that? Was it saraqa? Can you talk about the situation? It's
when the prophet Ali Sadhus Sam already was going to the journey
in the journey to Medina, after this assassination attempt, there
was foil, the one you just went over again, and another person is
on his tail, a deal. Whoever captured him, alive or dead, they
he would get 100 camels and all of these types of things, big money.
What is that equivalent today? Millions? Actually, the camel's
still, today worth lot of money. So it's, so it's, it's basically
like million or something of that. So he got a million plus bounty on
him, and that's why he kept on tracing the footsteps till he saw
the Prophet said, Allah Sallam from a distance. And when the
prophet Ali saw to some used to whenever he would walk, he would
not look back. And this is another thing you know, when someone is
scared and no protection whatsoever, you keep on looking
back. And the prophet Ali saw to say, whenever he would walk, he
would just look forward so and Abu Bakr Al Jalal Anu, whenever they
would walk. He would sometimes walk in front of him, sometimes
behind him, sometimes to his right, sometimes to his left. He
would walk in front of him, and then he would think, what if
someone comes from behind? He would walk from and the Prophet,
peace be upon them, walking in a calm way. So anyway, so when Sura
saw them, and all of a sudden, Allah, bounty hunter now, yes,
bounty hunter season, and he's on his horse. The horse just sank in
the sand, you know, stopped moving. And, of course, he fell
from it, and he kept on pushing and for and trying to get it to
move. There's no way he's later testifying to this, right? He
became a Muslim afterwards, he's he's narrating this authentic
reports. He's telling us to stop, correct. And even the Prophet,
peace be upon him. When he came and told him why you're doing this
and that. And then the Prophet, peace be upon him.
He took from that Soraka, that guy, the hunter, he said, I'm not
going to say anything about you. And he saw that miraculous thing
is happening. But moreover, which is an amazing thing, the Prophet
told him that you will have the slogan. And.
Saul again, which is, I'm not sure exactly what's in English, the
golden sticker bracelet of the king of Persia. So he's telling
him now some this is a prophecy. Something's going to happen in the
future, and you will have this with you. And he is, first of all,
he's going after the Prophet, peace be upon him, to kill him. He
was not a Muslim, and the Prophet, peace be upon him. According to
what people see, physically, he's in the weakest state, fleeing from
Makkah, going to Medina, to uncertainties, you know, and all
of these things. And he's telling him, and he's given a prophecy
that you will own, you will have this bracelet, this golden
bracelet of the king of Persia, and years afterwards, at the time
of Omar RadiAllahu, anhu, when they conquered the land of Persia,
and that came to him. And so Racha held it in his hand, and he
reminded the people of this. So, so, you know, this is another
prophet. It came true now. So he had, at the end, the Prophet saw
some peace and buzzer be upon him. He tells them, this is going to
happen. You're going to be this is a prediction of conquest in this
area, taking over. And then the bracelets you're going to be
wearing, them, and he got them, wow. This is just so profound, so
so deep, heracules, is
it? He's a Christian leader of the Romans. He said that if I was with
Prophet Muhammad, I'd wash his feet. Is that correct? There's a
Christian saying I would wash problem as King of the Romans at
the time erected. And the one that narrated this was Abu Sufyan. He
was not a Muslim, and he was one of the enemies of the prophets,
saying, The companion that he brought to kind of interrogate
him, Prophet Muhammad. He's narrating this later. When he came
became he was then a disbeliever. Break this down, right? And it's a
long Hadith in Sahih Bukhari, where her reckless he asked him
questions. Because every day, the entire humanity at the time they
were waiting for the Prophet to come. They're already waiting for
someone to come. Right in their books, all of the descriptions the
Jews came to Medina why they were waiting for the prophets, and the
same thing with the Christians. So when he asked questions, and he
asked for specifically that individual, because he's an enemy
to him, you know, and he would know better for him, and he made
sure that he would not lie. Abu Sufyan, when he said that this is
the later on became the companion. He said, I wanted to lie, but I
will be. It's a shameful thing for someone to lie. And the Arabs,
they used to consider, if you catch someone with one lie, he's
stigmatized with this for the rest of his life. You got a rap sheet
of being a liar, right? Even they, I mean, held to that. He was so
much afraid of his image to be corrupted like this, integrity,
right? And someone behind him, her Achilles was having someone to to
make sure that authenticate what he says. So he asked him
questions. And the only thing that you know, he said that he might, I
might get a pass on it, or something like this, that when he
asked him, does he? You guys, does he? He's saying the truth. He
says, As for now, this is what he is saying. But we don't, we don't
know what's what happened in the future. So as if he's trying to
get some words of justification. But the point here, after he
mentioned this, and he asked him about his followers, and what does
he call the people to so and it's a, it's a really a long, detailed
Hadith or narration that with every question. And then
afterwards, he reckless. He responded back to him with every
question that he asked, and he told them why he asked them these
questions, and showing the way of the of Allah, subhanaw taala on
Earth, that they were waiting for such a prophet. And then at the
end, he says that he is the messenger of Allah. He believed,
but he did not believe, meaning that he knew that he's the
Messenger of Allah. They said, if I was with him, I would wash under
his feet. And he even kind of tested the people around him, so
when they made an uproar, he says, No, we're just testing you. So he
died as a disbeliever, but he realized testified to the fact
that he's the final messenger of Allah. This is an important point
for people to reflect over already. They're waiting. The Jews
there came to Medina, specifically around the area, waiting. The
Christians are waiting again for a prophet to come, right? So to this
day, where is he? But he came already. You missed a boat. He's
there. And all these evidence we're giving, it's just common
sense. Just look at evidence upon evidence upon evidence. It is mind
blowing. And again, it's for him who, means Allah, gave us the
ability, as intellectual beings, to look at things. And again,
whoever look into the Quran, look into the message of the Prophet,
you won't find the like of it whatsoever. And this is where
there's no like of it. There's no like of such a revelation, a
comprehensive revelation, with matters of belief, matters of
worship. If you want to be the most righteous person, you have it
there. The best stories are in the Quran, everything that you would
need in the previous revelations. And add to it what humanity is in
need of it, universally till the Day of Judgment.
All perfectly explained. Let's go ahead and just wrap it up with the
message. What is this message of Islam?
The message of Islam is very easy and simple that fits the simplest
human being and the most sophisticated which we are
created. We're all human beings. We're all from Adam and Adam from
dust. There's no superiority of one human being over the other
based on the color of his skin or his nationality or anything like
this. We're all equal in the eyes of God. And the purpose of our
creation is to worship the Creator of the heavens and the earth, the
Lord of Jesus, the Lord of Moses, the Lord of Abraham, the Lord of
all of the prophets, and the Lord of Muhammad, sallAllahu, sallam,
to worship Him alone. And if you read the Quran, and this is an
invitation read the Quran,
one, one of the human rights to us as Muslims is for others to read.
You have a right to read the Quran. Read it from the beginning
to the end, and see how the Quran would explain to you clearly that
this is the purpose of our life. The consistency in this message,
you won't find any ambiguity in it whatsoever. We don't worship human
beings. We do not do anything except the worship of God alone
and then the perfect way of life, in manners, in deeds, done even by
the hearts and dealing with many individuals in our life. There's
no walk of life unless you would have a principle and things to be
followed in the example of the Prophet, peace be upon him.
Beautiful. So we went from picking apart a lie to explaining how the
Quran was compiled a miracle of the Quran memorized. It's not
built on the manuscripts, even though we have that, but oral
tradition memorized by millions living today. And then how many
would you say during the prophets Muhammad, peace and buzz? It be of
his time until now? That'd be. How many millions upon millions of
billions. I mean, since that time to now, have memorized the
Quran countless. Right until today we have it. Then we went over the
assassination attempts, the verses coming down that God will protect
you from the from the people at any time that could have been
broken, we wouldn't have have it. That's something for you to think
about. It's really profound. And then now you got the message
delivered to you, worshiping one and only one God. This is
absolute, pure monotheism, nothing like it. May Allah guide us and
guide everyone. And that's one of the message of the Quran, one of
the beautiful verses that Allah, subhana, Allah ordered the
Prophet, he says, and said to say to the people were in a Mubin,
either us or you, upon guidance or clear astray, we cannot be both
guided. One is guided and one is misguided. So this is a serious
matter for a person to search. That's why, in every prayer, in
every standing, in the prayer, we say, dinosaur him, Oh God, guide
us to the straight path. If that sincerity is in the heart, and we
ask God alone to guide us to the straight path, and we take the
means, then the guidance is by his will, and it's easy.
Inshallah, thank you very much for sharing some time with us and
helping to deliver this to the people.
