Whether he comes
along or somebody will send him over like an essay using them
and the video or me while early he was heavy rain, all that.
So Hamdulillah we have been given the opportunity to continue
to read from the 62 discourses of a city that has any adverse at
the
other Giuliani
and his work entitled The feds Hello Bernie will play a rock
many.
So as we've mentioned throughout these sessions and these
discourses,
the sheriff is trying to
via his discourses that he said to his students at the time, but as
we know that these words,
being an embodiment of the Prophetic teachings of the Prophet
Muhammad SAW said them and our belief that the sheikh himself see
them apology learning indeed also was one of the one of the one of
the inheritors of our profits are synonymous. So his very demeanor,
his being and his
character and his mannerisms and so forth, also are
indicative of that prophetic legacy.
So,
the,
one of the or the main
imperative of a chef of a true chef, is to remove the veils
between his or her students and Allah Spano Fattah. And as we've
mentioned several times, most of these veils are internal veils,
they are ones that are can be traced back to the Caprice and
appetite and the
winds and the illusions that most people somehow internalize within
themselves. So
the world itself,
in other words,
the creatures of the world themselves, they can be
a source of guidance towards God and was part of data. Or they can
be veils between us and almost
so to see see them as they truly are.
One of the things that we always say when we finish our session
will not only not have to happens if we try to about them, it was
the question
we asked for last 12 hours show us the hack, as it is shows the
reality as it is and then allow us to follow it. When Bartylla Norton
was published in ABA, and also the bottle or falsehood shows, as it
truly is, and give us the fortitude and ability to avoid it,
to abandon it.
So, oftentimes, these internal veils, they manifest themselves,
inwardly and outwardly. So Tom, so often, what we say about others in
that, and that's an external manifestation is often or always
precipitated by the thought itself that happens internally. And so
the best method by which to counter these veils this whole job
is to work on the internal aspect. So to get ourselves in a state of
remembrance of immersion in the
shahada of the witnessing of the Divine, so that those thoughts
themselves don't really even come up, they don't really have power
over us. You know, What did Allah subhanaw taala say to Satan, in a
very laser regarding so far,
my a bet those who follow me and worship me, and are truly sincere
for my sake, laser laser like guiding him so far, you don't have
some talent, you don't have power over them.
So amongst those things that can happen sometimes is our perception
of others, how we see others and how we
attribute maybe vile things to them, not because those people
themselves are vile, but it's violence within ourselves and then
we see it reflected from within ourselves and then we impose it
upon others. And that's why we said men would mean the Hadith of
the prophets are so love the believer is the mirror of his or
her brother or mirror of the believer. So
in the beginning of this tour, of course, we're going to read from
some excerpts of it, the 14th one
we see
think that the share
rebukes those who would backbite others, and would speak ill of
others, especially if they are people we consider to be even
wealthier than the people we consider to be from the heirs of
the prophets of the metaphor. Would you like? Would you like to
eat the dead flesh of your brother. And so, the scholars
after that, they said, are Latin or the magma smooth, that the
flesh of the holy man, the true knowers of Allah subhanaw taala is
not only dead, if you're going to eat it and incense back by them,
but it's also Miss Mu, it's poisonous reason and then things
and most of the times very, very badly for them.
Not because of anything that those scholars or those earlier wanted
or intended to happen to those people, but Allah Spano Fattah, he
has taken himself when he says monopoly when he then told the
man addley Willian for the identity will help whoever
hurts reviles one of my odf or dn
huntin, I declare war upon him or war upon her at war upon them. And
one of the things that a lot of our fellows hidden
from us is who are the earlier of the last panel that who are the
the people of a lot who are the who are the
Sydney theme, or soy hint amongst us, because that's a state that's
an internal state state of the heart, not something that's
necessarily
limited to the external performance of the team and
external performance of ritual aspects of the team. So if that is
the case, then we don't really know who amongst us are the LDS.
And if we don't really know who amongst us are, though yet, then
we should treat every believer, every Muslim that we encounter as
early as a potential one, in the same manner, that Allah subhanaw
taala has hidden, the Salatu was Star for almost five prayers. So
the middle prayer that's mentioned in the Quran, which one of the
five poses the middle where there's five different opinions,
some of them say the negative some of them say a shirt, some of them
say fresher. And then some of the things on it, some of them say us.
So five different opinions. So then we treat every pair like it's
the middle pair, we don't know which one of the nights in
Ramadan, whether it's the last
10 nights or other nights then that is later to,
yes, some of us that indicate the 27th but it's not a,
an airtight conclusive single opinion on those other opinions.
Some of them even have the opinion that it rotates throughout the
year, every year, not just limited to Ramadan. So we don't know which
particular night is later, but other than if power, so then the
prudent thing to do would be to treat every night like it's like
as a club.
So to offer something of a night prayer every night, and then that
way you are certified and guaranteed that you will have at
least one of the nights that you're praying that will be laid
at the club. We don't know Saturday EACH AVAILABLE Joomla you
don't know the exact time or moment or hour that Allah subhanaw
taala will fulfill the supplication that which is essence
application another day of drama. So that means we treat all of the
day of drama as an opportunity for
and so forth. So since I lost my father, by His wisdom has
concealed these things with within other things, then we treat as a
general principle as a general rule, we give all of those things
what we call the hallmark of the sanctity so we sacralized in a
sense, our dealings with all people because any one of them
could be a way of the law and we certainly don't want a loss to
declare war upon us. We deal with all of the prayers as if they are
the sort of gustar right that has some sort of merit
above with Allah sorta above the other prayers we treat every night
at least in every night in Ramadan potentially as laid at the pub
because of the merit that has been given within the different clubs
and so forth. So
shares here
if we're gonna just pick out some
excerpts
so he begins by saying,
thought Allah azza wa jal mink may if you can the faculty that after
but also the English learner who me him, until was when you
When when I had when I was little and not even yet quality data and
signature qumola Hola Como was out automatically
when the Domo calm photosphere to como to Hollywood called
Rafaella women and we often wonder who belay as origin whether he has
sort of him with a law that
the mother at a world level set with a lot of
men enter with the law for illegal origin for send them a handle with
either him or him to snap out cool country area to include Jubilee
that is article 31 muscle Africa. So, he begins with kind of a
strong discourse and he says, oh, hypocrite here again when we say
when we're saying your thoughts. This is an if often Amen. On the
Falcon What am I gonna write then if after the hypocrisy of dealing
with people or with our deeds, not done within the fog of creed which
would put someone outside of the SEC?
May Allah purify the earth of you, your hypocrisy will not be
satisfied until your backbiting of the Orlan that the saints will yet
and the righteous the Saudi hun amounts actually devouring their
flesh. You and your hypocritical brother alike will soon very soon
have worms devouring your tongues in your flesh. As they dismember
you and carve you into little pieces. The earth will embrace you
then crush you and transform it. There is no salvation or for that
for what it is that think well of Allah subhanaw taala and his
righteous servants and behave towards them with humble modesty.
Why do you not approach them with humility when they are the
euroset, the chiefs and Amara leaders who are you in relation to
them, the word of truth has entrusted to them the authority to
untie into by and highly on what because of them the rain falls
from the sky and the earth produces crops. All creatures are
the subjects they are right here, or I would say about their
subjects but their flock.
Each of them is like a mountain that is neither shaken nor moved
by the wounds of disasters and calamities. They do not budge from
their places of their affirmation of Tawheed oneness and their
contentment or evolve with their master Allah azza wa jal to go off
seeking for themselves and for others.
So backbiting itself,
as a bunch of enormity, as it is,
begins with a feeling or a
Spurgeon in the heart. So before one actually says something makes
kind of off pan comments about someone else. It begins with a
feeling in the heart, where does that feeling in the heart come
from? Where does it come about?
It is an upset anything necessarily means it satiate the
ego. So just like appetite can be physical, you know, we can desire
certain things to eat. It can also be in this sense, emotional or
even intellectual. So we can have an appetite for us to feel better
about ourselves, right? The ego likes to be inflated, it likes to
be stroked, likes to be aggrandize. And one of the ways
you can accomplish that is by denigrating other people. By
putting other people down, it makes you feel up. And modern
psychology and so forth, has already affirmed this. That's what
people do. So sometimes people would rather feel that they are
just better than everybody else than them to have been given some
sort of, or to achieve some sort of big accomplishment. It's enough
that they're better than their peers. So I believe in one study,
they asked people would you rather
double your salary or everyone else have half of yours Make half
your salary? And I think the overall response is everyone else
to make half your salary in relation to you. So this is kind
of the human nature.
What gets really despicable about it, is under the guise of, or
under the pretext of Dean, or the pretext of
Osama bin Laden model for the handling monka, you know, to, to
enjoy the good or forbid the wrong, you know, we say we have to
call these people out. So we're very much in the throes of what's
called the call out culture or the canceled culture. So people feel
they have to point out other people's mistakes, and then expose
them so that they can be cancelled, and that no one will if
they're a business owner, so no one may patronize their business
anymore. If they're a teacher or scholar that no one will listen to
them anymore and that they will be declared irrelevant after that.
And those are some of the words that I've heard some of these
people use
So, the problem was that is nothing external action of itself.
But what drives that? Why do we want to do that, to our really
seeking justice are seeking to, if there are victims involved are
really seeking to alleviate their condition? Or does it come from
something that's a little bit grayer and a little bit
more malevolent within ourselves, which is our new force our egos,
and we have this appetite, to put others down and to counsel them,
maybe because they disagree with us, or they do not subscribe to
the same political leanings that we do, or for whatever reason, and
as a result, then, this makes us want to kind of, you know, stick
it to them and wait for the opportunity, if it presents itself
to find fault with it. And really, the ethos of Islam is quite the
opposite. If we see an inkling of fault with somebody, right, what
we would say something like something that can be interpreted
in in a very negative way, or something that we can find a
plausible reason for, you know, why that particular behavior is
being exhibited, and still maintain a good opinion of that
person, then we should always go with the latter, we should always
go with the idea that people make mistakes, even though humans make
mistakes, perhaps the way that we're looking at them, the way
that we're observing them,
is erroneous. And so we should leave some space for that we
should leave some leave, some have some allotment for our own
particular biases. So rather than jump on someone immediately,
because we feel like
they've made this big Mahadeva, they've made this big
transgression,
we should have what's called to me and to us, you know, we have to be
a little bit more careful, and a little bit more deliberate. Before
we put them on blast on Twitter, or on Facebook, or on Instagram,
whatever people use, in order to kind of what they feel is to
correct a particular role. And I'm only talking about I'm not
approaching it really, based upon the context of this book, not from
the greater social implications, because there are greater social
implications. Once you blast somebody out on the internet, it's
very hard to retract that you've kind of ruined it for them, at
least for the foreseeable future, if not beyond, but I'm looking at
from the context of the person who actually does that. What type of
effect is that going to have on your, your own spiritual
cultivation on your own Teskey if you appoint yourself kind of as
the ombudsman of
you know, everybody on Facebook or on the internet are people who
make mistakes, and then trying to expose those mistakes and to bring
it to light and, you know, saying things like, Sunshine is the best
disinfectant. And well, you know, that might be causing me to have a
little bit have altered, it might be as a sense of truth, in that,
that to be transparent and to bring things to light if there's
mistakes being made. But oftentimes, I see it as a pretext,
to humiliate and to
and to really just character assassinate people. And perhaps
the mistake that you're talking about, they did it actually, and
they're guilty. But then, what is the, you know, should the
punishment fit the crime? Are they do they deserve to be completely
blasted, and character assassinated and their reputation
completely solid forever,
because of a mistake that they made, or maybe they had a moment
of weakness in public. And someone got that on video, or someone put
that out on YouTube, and then it went viral. And then people don't
tend to see that person in only that particular light. Whenever
they do a search on their name on Google, then this particular
incident comes up. So you know, as Muslims, we should be, you know,
really, really careful about that, and how we go about
doing things like this.
And the province I sent him was very forgiving and very condoning.
And
he did not seek to always choose the worst path or the worst
opinion about when things were presented to him he had people who
were considered to be treason, commit treason, but yet he forgave
them. There was one Sahaba whose name escapes me Who knew that the
promise AR seven was was about to embark and go into
battle with seminars about to head out to Mecca. And he he was wrong.
He was a client of one of the tribes in Mecca so we didn't
really have anyone who had his back so to speak from a tribal
sense in Medina so he just wanted to give them advance warning
because he thought that would carry favor with them.
The promise Oksanen find found out about this via
Why, or I think it was brought to his attention. And then when the
Sahaba came, the rest of his harbor thought that was treason
and that would, you know, in most countries today, treason is a
capital punishment. But the promise I send them didn't want to
do that. And he forgave him. And he said, This is a person who
participated in with us, I think better, and he loves a lion, his
profits. And so he forgave him for this.
So what we might think, are completely, you know, unforgivable
crimes, we have to account for people's humanity. And people
sometimes in the form of weakness there in the force, can take them
over, remember, shot on he has a couple of books where he talks
about in a flat, he has one called it has nothing but to layer and
there's another other books have a lot of character.
And one of the ones that I recall, that I think is a very beautiful
one is when you encounter your fellow brother or sister or
Muslim, something that you don't like from them, then look at that
as that that's the the, the result of their show thought or the
result of their neffs. So it's not that person themselves, right?
Because everyone has enough. So everyone has a che fine. Everyone
has a claim. And they're the ones who exerted influence over that.
And just think about yourself, right? Whenever you're trying to
make a decision about something, and maybe you thought it through
when you sat down a little bit. And he said, a lot when I was
thinking of that I really wanted, I was in a passionate moment, I
really wanted to stick with that person. But then after I sat down
for a little bit, I kind of came to my senses. Sometimes people
don't, don't do that. Sometimes in the heat of the moment, they will
do a particular action, and maybe they'll regret it later. But the
damage has been done. That doesn't mean necessarily that those people
should be condemned for life and forever, because they felt that a
particular mistake.
So this is especially true with those who we think have a standing
with Allah's power. So we should be very, very careful about what
we say about them, what we think about them.
And this certainly goes through for those people had a direct
relationship with our profit center. So the Sahaba, the
Companions, we should never think anything about them whatsoever.
The historical
incidents that happened between them
were that and they happened. And it showed that they're also human,
but we should not take one particular side of another.
We believe that there was someone who was right and someone who was
wrong. But this was a matter of he had a matter of exerting some sort
of juristic reasons for torture, not the right thing to do. And one
of them made a mistake and no one was the recipient of that mistake.
But the problem is, I seldom said in one of the one time you can
resume a date on medical, My Companions are like the stars,
whichever ones that you follow, you will be guided. And that also
goes through for elevate the people of the household of the
province I know. So even existing until now, if there are believers
in the Muslim and they have into servants, you know, multiple
targets, highly probable are certain that they are from
Elevate, even if they commit sins, even if they make mistakes.
Think about their relationship with our province by accident with
the province I set them like us to disparage them or to condemn them
or to deal with them in a harsh manner. So much in the same way if
like you have a close friend, when they have children. And then the
children that close friend do something wrong, you'd want to
correct them in a way that's gentle, that's Latif that's nice
not to jump on them like the children of your enemy and you
know, deal with them in the most harsh and austere way. So out of
indifference for the privatization. So we deal with it
at the people of his household those who have a desert island to
has an aqua Zayn and according some opinions those are even
related to what our best our many Hashem also many of them are
plotted
like cousins and uncles of the prophets I'm so
and that goes through also true for you know, everyone who says
that, along with Hamlet or sola, there's a Homer, right, this idea
of ultimate of sacrifice, sanctity of viability is very, very
important, not just for the social implications, as I mentioned, but
also for your own hearts. Right? The more that you carry around in
your heart of contempt, of condemnation, of what's called the
ZIL, right, one of the things that we say, Alana that are fearful
luminous Zealand Latina m and this really means contempt and multi
rancor, right that you sometimes this comes out in the form of
what's called a chimera. So Shemitah means you rejoice at the
misfortune of the person who is the object of your SHAMET
The other person who is the object of your ire, so you'd like to see
bad things happen to them?
You know, and then, you know, you write things on Facebook like, oh,
look karma, they got what they deserved. And all those things.
You know, when this pandemic first came out some Muslim
commentators, you know, said, Oh, this is what the Chinese are
getting this because of what they did to the weekers. And, you know,
they're getting what's coming to them. And then when it's spread to
Europe, then they said, Oh, well see, look,
they're getting what's coming to them because they were colonizers
and you know, they, they controlled the Muslim lands for a
long time and so forth. And now that has spread to them some
lands,
what do we say? So, you know, that shouldn't we be ashamed of this is
a kind of the law. We're saying what Allah is doing, we're giving
a reason why I was doing the things that he does, like we're
speaking on, on his behalf, as much as who appointed you, the
spokesperson for God, Who made you who assigned you the person to say
I think God is doing this and Allah is doing that. And this is
who's getting revenge on here and this is getting revenge on here.
So all of that is so at a law that is very, very bad form very, very
bad etiquette, with Allah subhanaw taala. Rather, we should say, this
is something from the last round with Allah. They are multiple
everybody's everybody's being affected by it. There are lessons
for us to be learned or about. Some have just happened to people
who score unquote, deserve it or don't deserve it before an
instructor's with the full faith and literacy ventilating alone and
women come casa, and have Taqwa of the fitna of the tribulation. That
does not merely afflict the wrongdoers amongst you. It's not
specific to them. But we'll come to everyone. And we know the
instruction of our prophets are seldom cannot our own, you ever
fallen carefully another level, these type of LBL these type of
plagues were sent before for disbelievers as a type of
punishment for them, while we're often meaning. And it's a mercy
for the believers and whoever stays in his house or in his land,
sovereign and patient with it, then you'll have the pleasure of
the Shahid Mifflin. They'll have the reward that similar to the
award of the Shaheed of the one who
dies, visa vie, Linda, that's, that's our response. That's how we
should look at it. This is how the Academy this is how our futures
look at it. This is how they've interpreted anything else,
especially when we're specifying a particular group and we're saying
it's intercom and its revenge on a particular group. This is not
coming from Dean, this is coming from neffs it's coming from the
ego. Sometimes the ego it's very treacherous, and I'll try to trick
you and I'll say no, this is for the dean, and tons of Lila and you
and you are being angry for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala. But
if your anger is marked by
enmity and rancor and hatred, and shamatha, right, rejoicing at the
misfortune of others, then it's not from the it's not from Allah
subhanaw taala it's not something that's pure, it's something that's
very dark, coming from your neffs
alone
so
I just want to read a couple more
passages, something very important that he says here
it says embargo
for towards the end
he says, like that I think this person and I will call him Adela
as urgent as the hot pocket or Budimir to whom level lawyers when
I'm in Houdini our ASCII law. In America when I'm in Ottawa, law,
they are loan money Jimmy oftenly either davek The evidence early on
Lake
Wylie Alonso Julia, founder of your company, my share is soft
cocoa in the Sahel, konbu telegraph maternal Chava cotton
Allah
so He says.
Kevin, okay, fine, I'll just translate. He said, The birth of
Allah the worshipers of Allah are the servants of Allah subhanaw
taala the ones who have to Hacket of their booty, love actualized
Isn't realized their booty and their servitude towards Allah
subhanaw taala liath Luna Minwoo Dinya. What? What if they don't
ask for dunya? No, they ask for extra, they ask for a last bottle.
And then the next discourse which we'll get to, I think, the next
time we meet next session, I believe is even the Sami,
very famous aesthetic, he said in movement and if we refer women
Alonso didn't that dunya went to Africa and Amiata woman Rodolfo
Mola, that the if the believer
doesn't ask from Allah, subhanaw, Taala dunya or Ashira hero, but he
asked from his master, his master, he asked from his master his math,
so we ask Allah for Allah.
What does that mean? We ask Allah for Allah, so we don't seek that
which is created, which is dunya and which is accurate. Those are
things I lost my valuable sort of feedback, am I a chef, those are
things that he contends with, and he dispenses with as He wills as
he pleases, but we seek Allah's final data. And the best way to
seek ALLAH subhanaw taala is to ask Allah to give us a lot to give
us him to have a greater understanding of it.
So he said there's a softball Club Hotel are often worshiping Staten
Island.
If the heart becomes pure and becomes true, and it becomes
healthy spirituality that is, then it will be filled with Rafa and
sha Allah, it will be filled with mercy and compassion for the hunt
for creation. And this to me is the probably the most important
discerning factor of
those who, you know, talk the talk, but can't walk the walk. If
your chef or your teacher is
making you feel angry, and making you feel enmity towards others,
and making you look at the faults of others, and condemn them and
despise them, especially if they're for fellow believers, for
the false that they have, then, you know, may sound controversial,
that person's not ashamed of anything other than that. But if
the shift brings hearts together, because that is the that is the
occupation of awareness and Mohammed, the occupation of the
one who is a true Arab Mohamed salah, and now your love may not
flew, there is that leave there's reconciliation with between the
hearts, the Arabs, prior to the Prophet outside send them were the
most disputed punch you could have imagined. They fought over the
most trivial of things in Arabian Peninsula. And yet the prophets I
send them by the will of Allah subhanaw taala. And they will
shuffle, shuffle, hopefully we will not run because of a minha
they were on the very
rim of the pit of fire, literally and figuratively, the province I
said and brought them back from that, and brought to a leaf, a
leaf of a Napoleon. And the Quran says lo if you spent all that was
in the earth to bring this technique to bring them to
reconcile it would not have worked. So he made that leap from
Kulu. Not that leaf will have done that the reconciliation of bodies,
but the reconsidered reconciliation of hearts, not the
reconciliation of tribes, not the reconciliation of families, but
the reconciliation of, of hearts. And the one who can do that must
have
mercy and compassion, he'll see the faults or she'll see the
faults of others and not look at them with what's called is the raw
or belittling or contempt or hatred. And then that had that
state then is transferred to their students and then more color here
then more hatred.
And then more enmity and more rancor and then infuse that also
add to that as well, this kind of feeling of self righteousness and
sanctimonious pretense that we're much better than that group or
this group, or the followers of this teacher or this chef and you
know, we are the best and they don't know anything. And that's
sort of the dialogue that discourse. This is you know, as
we've mentioned in some previous programs, we did this has to do a
selfie, right this is not a problem of the demons not the
teachings of the demon fault. But the today you the way that people
are practicing the the the way that they have taken on the team
and that's why the prophets are so there was no inside Muslim is an
earthworm from a half or other material body and the in metal and
mobile know, the thing that I fear the most or from amongst the
things I fear the most after me, in my own mind in my community are
the misguiding MLMs the misguiding so they are misguided and they are
misguided. So the misguided futures in misguiding emails, they
are the problem. So
how do we remedy that we have it today on an EJB we have to have a
type of understanding of the deal that is passed.
And that begins with taking the right teachers with taking the
right odia taking the right shoe. And one of the properties one of
the attributes that they'll have is that they have Rama and shofar
that
they have mercy and they have compassion for everybody because
they wish to see their guidance just like our Prophet SAW Selim
wish to see the guidance of all
well, lot out of out of home to the home and I mean, and we'll
stop here in Sharla and next time we go to the 50s discourse
