Why would they bring up this particular issue? Who thinks about
whether the Quran is created or not created, other words are
created a lot. And
the reason for this is that there were certain theological issues
that were
compelling in the early period. And amongst them was this idea of
the creativeness or lack thereof.
And so the argument of I had a son now, as we said, in the first
session, there are two main schools that represent in terms of
our feeder the fall of and so namely a Sharia would like to be
there.
And then those who more or less follow one of those two, but
rather than using Rational proofs, they tend to suffice themselves in
reading the verses in the Hadith and so forth as they come out
delving into them, sometimes they call themselves after a year.
Sometimes they call themselves that have a seller so forth.
But in terms of formal theological schools, we talk about Hasson
Ashari and those that follow him like email, the worker that the
nanny was in early November quarterly and I know only so
forth, and then the other school of passive metal relay, which is
also primarily primarily followed by many of the Hanapepe automatic
fifth annual fact no matter at school more or less represents the
the mental health of them and other McGrady's the inevitable
but both contend that the Quran is speech of Allah subhanaw taala and
it was created and the reason that they make this contention is
because there was another group or we all call them what Tesla so
called so named because our physical Palafox in the hustle and
bustle they used to attend the religious circles of learning of
passing adversity, and then they left that and artisans to the so
they they abandon that they forsake that and follow up kind of
their own, what they consider to be irrational path, but what the
Imams have had a similar thought to be putting rationality in a
place where it doesn't evolve. So amongst the things that was from
their contentions, namely, the lethargy, that was that the Quran
is
the problem with this is that
lower end was revealed verbatim, as we read it today, to the heart
of the Prophet commissar seven
and based upon what we know about the other attributes of a lost
battle to Allah, that is omniscient, omnipotent, that he
has a rather and the will and higher on Samba and Bossa the rest
of us six attributes. That means his speech also must fall in line
with being an attribute of his because Allah speaks right and
even it is affirmed in the Quran. What can la mala Musa the Colima
right and Allah spoke to Moses, right tech Lima here we say this
is
an Mfold
must have when you have masa come as McCallum, Allahu setac Lima is
emphatic. And they said in this particular emphatic state, it
means that Allah spoke to Moses
in a manner that was commensurate with Allah's majesty, but not in a
matter, that would be anything indicative of a creative creature.
So it has to be without sound, it has to be without letter. What
matter exactly a low atom, but we know that linguistically we can
call it Qlm as Allah Sardar himself called it killer COVID
speech.
So anything that's an attribute of God can't be created because Allah
is not created Allah is the Creator. so * Allah then
which includes the Quran, which includes the Torah, in its
original form, the Torah, the Injeel, the Gospel, its original
form, the Psalms of David its original form, software, Hebrew
Rahima Moosa the scriptures or Scrolls of Abraham and Moses, all
of those books, as mentioned in the Quran, Arcanum are what they
are the word and speech of Allah subhanaw taala. And they are
uncreated.
Then the question comes about, well, what about the actual words
that I'm reading? You know, because these in Arabic language
in the letters of the Arabic language, aren't those things that
are created because we speak with those letters and so forth? And
the answer to that would be most definitively, yes, they are
created. However, it's not mentioned specifically here but
the other okay. Then they divided
Allah speech into kind of two broad categories. Kalam, Allah
enough, see what Kalam Allah and love v.
So there's a speech of Allah that's in Word, and then the
speech of Allah, that is a meaning. So the Arabic then in the
Quran, or let's say the Hebrew in the tour
or the Aramaic or ceramic in the NG
indicate the uncreated speech of the last battle. However, the
actual words that we missed
that have letter that have sound, then we say this is kind of Allah
and love the so the words of Allah in terms of words and words are
created things, but the meanings behind them because I'm aligned FC
is uncreated. So when they say when for Annika down the line they
suddenly Mutlu they knew that could end as revealed to the
Father so I said them was always the content so it wasn't created
in time that's why we say it was revealed to the province or
accident right? Who here eating oh how it was found. And we don't say
that color purple you don't say creative because it's always been
part of a lot anything that is attributed to align attribute of
his has to be pre eternal, as we discussed in previous sessions had
to exist as well. In that time, that was before time that we don't
really call time but we use this word as an at least to speak about
it
well out out of out of out of you know, it's not something that most
people need to be concerned with. But it came up as a line here so
we thought it'd be good to talk about a little bit.
Then he goes on to say when Nigeria mechanic in Ireland
Oh, your guru probably called or Allah he will cause any lie at 100
people to have equal whether your school a circle Hilda the oddity,
what's up the enemy?
Here he's talking about cobalt, Canada. He said, everything and
that everything that is in the universe with Adam, right and Adam
here coulomb so Allah azza wa jal, so that means everything besides
Allah, so there's two categories is Allah was everything else. So
everything besides the last bottle data in the universe,
that is, was and whatever will be, will be by the color Allah Allah
has called up these two words, which we'll talk about in a
second.
Later having to have equal whether your school sacred 11 morality or
something, there's nothing that moves or doesn't move remains
still.
Except by Allah's Will, and that it was already known by Allah's
knowledge.
Nothing, absolutely nothing can defy his will. And nothing could
be unknown. Allah doesn't become surprised, right when things
happen, because nothing can defy his will. It's all his money. It's
all his sovereignty. So how can anything then defy His will or
surprising? So what about this mother and father
generally speaking, the Parliament of a shara, at least they say that
a lot refers to that which Allah subhanaw taala knew in his or
knows in his pre eternal knowledge. So we said his
knowledge is eternal, it's everlasting. It turns out that
it's not renewable. He's known what he's known and always will
know it and it's exactly as it is in reality.
So that will call cabal
called off then refers to that which allows Montana actually, day
after day or hour after hour, breath after breath, second after
second dose things as they come to exist in time, this is by the
color of Allah. So the we call it we say that the final study felt
so that our look then, in other words, that connection with the
Hadith, right or that connection within Kadeem. So that connection
either with things existing in time or that connection with
things that are Kadeem namely aliveness attributes was the
difference. So a lot then is connected with the cloudiness
conducted with the attribute of God on the last final data and
that is omniscient that he knows everything, so nothing happens
except that he knows basically what that says. And the other
rules that this is connected from one aspect with things as they're
executed in time.
Right so Allah you're caught there he is the one who makes things
happen by Coolio no official sort of ramen every day is in a fair
for him doesn't mean he's changing his mind but it means every day
things will reveal themselves and will happen exactly as a law knows
them as they will happen and exactly as he wills them to
happen. So this is the cola and color of Allah subhanaw taala that
was a shoddy understanding some of them are to read is actually
understood the two words the opposite. So that they see the
other is that which is connected to a lost knowledge. And then as
far as that was connected to Allah's brother or his power, but
the meanings are the same.
Well no matter where you put mean 100 Cotton we thought it they are
still hola hola hola home, whatever Luna model here the
angels. They are amongst Allah's creation. They are creatures of
God. Salah problem
You got it, right he created them so that they may obey Him. So one
of the distinguishing features about the angels is that they obey
Allah and do not disobey Allah.
So the idea of Fallen Angel is for him to Islamic tradition.
IBLEES Satan was not a fallen angel, but rather he was a jinn,
which is a different type of creature created from fire. The
man that Yuka created from like the Indian critical light, and
they carry out various duties on Allah's behalf. They also carry
out various things up for human beings behalf more or less, each
human being has at least 12 angels that are accompanying one any one
time, you have to call them with the well achieved or female it to
kind of record one's deeds. And the one on the right is the one
who records a good deeds on the left is a lot of records other
than good deeds. But the one on the right is to me, he's in
charge. So the one on the left doesn't write anything that takes
permission first, because if you commit a sin than the one that
writes as well just pause, Hold on Don't write anything yet, because
it may be that he seeks forgiveness or makes Toba before
the light comes, and then we won't write down that sin that he
committed.
And then there are the Guardian images.
And half of them as referred to, which is I can't think of a better
word to translate than guardian angels. And these are the ones
that kind of accompany you all the time. So the last Buhari states,
they kind of take shifts, there's a group that comes in at treasure,
and then stays with you until the hospital and then there's a group
but also that will then remain until the last minute or the
following the next day.
And so, they also have the ability to give us in hand, which is kind
of inspire so like Satan whispers whisperings that are evil. The
angels we don't call their their enhanced or inspiration
whisperings, but we call it inspiration, inhale. And so they
may exert one to do good deeds and thoughts and so forth.
So they don't disobey Allah, Allah Fattah, then obviously, one of the
greatest things we'll have the greatest is Gibreel. Allah He
said, Gabriel, who is the Archangel of Revelation, as he was
to the Prophet Muhammad SAW Selim and all the prophets before him.
Then he goes on to say what Anessa youth delune
capable to him? Well, I can allow yourself to Lena Aaron will
totally said, yeah.
Yeah, well, Pablo, Mr. Robot, and the movie agenda in the middle,
proper enough.
And he said that people are tried, and they'll have tribulation in
their graves. So the life of the grave, it's what's known as an
balsa sometimes translate at Inter world, because it's between two
worlds. It's really the life that we live in. Now, most of us anyway
in the vignette, and then the life that comes after, which will be
the life of the day of judgment and the FL so that interworld,
life is a life. And once somebody dies, they're actually going to be
in that state until resurrection, until the the Apocalypse, and
Armageddon and destruction of the world. And then they will be
resurrected. And then the next life begins, which is the life of
the asset, okay, of judgment. So this bottles off, kind of gives
one a glimpse into where they're actually going to be spending the
rest of their eternity. So he says, In this demo, if you go to
him, it's a trial. And one of the first trials that comes is the
suit, or the question, and namely, what is asked three questions in
the grave.
They're asked about the Lord, Who is your Lord? What is your deen?
And who is this man? And you'll see someone who is the prophet. So
I said, that will be shown to you. And it's not about you know,
guessing, right? Like you're on Jeopardy and say, Oh, I guess it
must be the perfect deal. Now that we've gotten to this place, you
will actually either get you're not guests, you will either say it
because you have the man or you will not say it because you don't
have the email. So and Kohli said it right means that we're given
the ability to answer with the proper words a Sabbath, you know,
that's you know, rooted the rooted word as it were the confirmed word
holy seven
well that can allow you to sit between the the inevitable code is
that right so the people who are who have belief who believe that
Allah smart Allah and His messenger in the last night alone
will give them with a bit of right will route them with this would
work in the next leg.
But everyone is going to go at least what's called a kappa, which
is the constriction of the Greek night for some of you like ribs
striking, you know, bones breaking and others it will be just sort of
like something gentle, but everyone to some degree will go
under that at least in combat.
While in Milan ultimately agenda or Fatima Fatima
And the grave is either going to be a garden from us the gardens of
Paradise. Like it was that or the opposite portrait in the property
not far from amongst the pits of hellfire.
Well and then either you guys want to we actually want to locally
preserve our logo as you know you as an American man yeah man was
caught on fire on yellow woman young in spite of overseeing
Sharia
law who may share I mean a little image of Yama and Salah will be
shut out and then boozy mela will be given over from Rami ill the
sugar felon young fear of Allah what I felt in the detail that
even though public about
here is talking about the resurrection and the history of
the accounting, and then a value of azmoun. Right and last
resurrected. So everyone, no matter what state they died in,
they were eaten by a bear and then became little, you know, bear
digestive bits in his intestine, or eaten by a shark or they were
blown up or they burn or whatever it may be.
They will be brought back. And they will be reassembled by Allah
subhanaw taala when we're there to kind of live the disease, if Allah
put us together the first time and it's not a big deal for him, to
bring it back to us as we were, we're actually ruining a motive
that he said and everyone will be gathered, right, you will will
hash machines that will be gathered, hidden motive, right
motive just means the place, right, or the place of standing,
and this place of standing, either it's going to be the Earth itself,
or in another interpretation, Allah, everything will be gone.
And then Allah will recreate something similar to the Earth
with a beating sun and a large plane, where everyone who has ever
lived will be gathered there, including all of the profits.
So then the he said, then the accounting will happen that he
said, but people will be standing in emotionally for what will feel
like hundreds of years, if not more, and people will be literally
drenched in their sweat. And then just like it was in the grave
where it's kind of a foreshadowing of what's to come then people who
are standing there, some will be up to their eyeballs some up to
their knees, some all the way up to their necks and sweat, and
others will be shaded. Right? The hadith and Buhari of the seven
types of people, several architects will be in the shade of
God on another level. Right there will be no shade except the shade
on the last panel Donna that includes a man an adult with just
ruler.
The people who love what are for the sake of Allah, the One whose
heart was connected to the masjid, the one who cried out at night and
sincere repentance and love of God so forth. Most of the categories,
they will be in the shade of Allah's final data on that day,
where there'll be no shade except Allah shake, and then everyone
will be waiting and they will be desperate for just even herself to
begin with a reckoning
to biggie. And this is where the prophesy said was given what's
called the shutdown of the greatest intercession. So as we
counted in the hadith of Bokhari every there go around to all of
the different prophets will ask Adam, I mean, certainly saying
I've seen I've seen me and you know, I have to worry about
myself, all of them all the way up to Ibrahim and Moses and Isa till
they get to the last prophet almost, I send them where he says,
and I informed, and then He intercedes on behalf of all of
creation, and then the hisab or the reckoning begins in earnest.
So then he says, we're pulled out, as well as even when it wasn't
added, then the scales are either it's going to be multiple scales
for everybody. So we're gonna have the world scale, that's one
interpretation, or another interpretations, one big scale,
that big of a certain size, but one scale that is going to be used
for everyone although, but it is a type of scale. It's a type of
museum.
And this will weigh their deeds. And then he was he brings the as
from sort of
Zara from Indiana was caught off a lot in play on Yahoo overseas,
even at Adams was a good, we'll see it, they have judgment and
over a dozen Adams worth of bad, or an iota of bad will also come
to bear come to fruition who will see it. And Allah then will
forgive what He deems he wants to forgive from people's sins, either
by way of an amateur saw that by their good deeds, or by the
intercession from those He has given permission to look into
intercede. So not only the Prophet Muhammad SAW, etc, but every
prophet will intercede on behalf of their particular community or
nation. And then people who are not prophets as well will have the
ability to intercede.
We might have the fundamental or by just the pure bounty and
blessing of virtue of Allah without anything from you, which
is actually how it all works. Allah can decide to forgive them.
Well, how much do I need and He is the most important
Follow the rules we showed mercy election, except for those who
associate partners with the last five that in other words knowingly
rejected a lot and ascribe partners to him, but only a few
Allah, He will not forgive this lack of follow through now there's
no explanation for it, except tilba repentance before one passes
to the next life before one dies.
When the Sirata human survival media handle method, usually in a
bad banana gene
will serve them well enough goosh were mocha this will marry Allahu
minha. Then the Sirat, which is a land or I should say a bridge that
goes from the mashup where the gathering and the reckoning is,
and it goes over hellfire. And on the other side is the Vivica or
how we have the prophesy Center, which is the huge body of water,
you can't really call it a pond or a lake because you can't see it
the other shore from where you're standing, it's so big and it will
be have vessels filled with that one as receptacles that one can
take from that pond that how the will of the province is set up and
once they drink from it, they will never go thirsty ever again in the
entire existence. And on the other side of the person to be there
will be the pattern of homicides and so this slot right it said
that it in one interpretation needed as it says narrow as a
sword, but people will be crossing over it and that walk across it
will take 3000 years at a normal pace. But people will cross like a
blink of an eye people will close some across like a bolt of
lightning, some will cross like a fine stallion, some will cross
running some will cross walking some more cross crawling and then
the others will be caught on the hooks because their hooks
underneath is what he means by mocha this and then she will be
scratched and you know impaneled more or less as the falling off
and then some will find their way and fall into either one of them
will protect us from that.
And so, depending upon
where their deeds were where their their McCollum is with the last
final data then this is how they will cross the zero.
Then on the other side, how long the promise I said them and then
finally he says here when the janitor dollar they are aiming for
Hulu ad Allahu kilometer Lehmann eminent he won the HA. Then
paradise is your nayeem it's a abode of bliss and eternity. Allah
has prepared it for those as a gift and as a Koroma as a blessing
to those who believed in Him and have done
well and then not on not fluid. Hellfire also is an eternity. As
long as I haven't even care for Robbie who I saw. For those who
disbelieved him in this disobeyed Allah subhanaw taala.
When I asked him if he had in lemon Ashoka dinner, he were
Kapha.
So the only people who will spend eternity and hellfire however, are
those who ascribe partners to him and rejected a loss.
So amongst that, and the sooner the cloud is, there'll be some of
the believers or anyone, even if they had an iota of belief in
their heart, eventually we entered into paradise. But even though
they may spend some time in hellfire first
what is your body? And you may not equally well not sadly, he could
have said but I'm also Robin, I mean.
So now here he kind of left that section. Now he's saying that it's
also obligatory to believe in everything that has been expressly
mentioned in the Quran that keytab are saboteur or has been confirmed
from the prophets, I send them in terms of things of the afterlife.
So those things that are not given exact descriptions, then we don't
have to have a belief about it. There's no it's not a human issue.
But if it's in the Quran, or it's tethered to solar lights, we'll
probably assume that then it becomes an issue of, of act upon.
So how old the universe is how the world is, so forth. These are
things that mentioned either before I also know, at least not
in the conformance on that. And so there's no there's no issue of
belief attached to it. So whether one believes the universe is 13
point 8 billion years old, or only 10,000 years old. It's not an
issue of Africa. It's not an issue, you know, believe or not
believe.
Only those things are expressly mentioned and I'm pointing out
when you only meet me Nina or Hassan devotee Ella was salam was
Harvey was salam with the already amassed Shakira Lena mill whom I
asked him by hand.
And he said that one's loyalty and allegiance should be to the
believers.
And what he means by this, this mu Allah
Uh, is not a political one per se, not one where, you know, loyalty
allegiance in terms of, you know, does that mean I can't be a
citizen of a non Muslim country or because I have some sort of
loyalty to that country, that doesn't mean that, but it means
that in terms of one's innermost sort of
loyalty,
and an association should be with the believers, and that their
hopes or dreams or aspirations, since therefore, lost power
ballad, and that would Allah stipulates should be associated
also with with fellow believers, while hustling Ben Lloyd Wright,
and the most specific of them, and also they
are the people of the household over promise, Why settle for
nothing else except that their relationship to the Messenger of
Allah of Allah, civilized. And also the Companions was heartless,
as I said, right. And the companion is anyone as he says in
the life after that was the hobby and not the author the most is and
then what may then be? Well, that data Derek, some of them added, so
anyone who met the promise I send them and believed in him and then
died in the state of Eman we call that the heartbeat of companions.
And so we genuinely ascribed to them
on a saleability in that they are beyond reproach, in terms of their
uprightness, and their ability to, to narrate Hadith, and so forth.
And there were about 100,000 Sahaba of those that we actually
know their names and have a record for them, maybe 10,000. And of the
10,000, the ones that were actually narrators of Hadith,
which we notice under a fraction of them something like 1800, or
1700.
So we should think the best of the sahaba. And anything that happened
in terms of conflict between them, then we should always have the
best opinion. And he's talking here about what happened between
segnale and why we, and then they arrived, so Hassan and also
loggers for saying, if it's between the Sahaba then we think
that both of them tried whatever group tried their best. One of
them made a mistake and one of them was correct, or Amazona. We
really why are we saying all the law and all that he made a mistake
in opposing it in the way that you did say Maddie and Annie was
correct. Andrew did not make a mistake. So that was a Jalon. So
we asked to rewards while we only has one reward because he heard in
the way that he posed in the money.
One of the Sahaba de Bakr Siddiq
phenomenal Photomath mandrill Lorraine, to Vietnam also there's
seldom ever has any hyena divided along the lawn journey.
And that the best of the Sahaba first was Abu Bakr siddhi, then
Omar Faruk, and then you shut up for being unhappy with voltage
right, what distinguishes between truth and falsehood, his name
followed some loss manager Lorraine, then off man, the one of
the two lights namely Mary, two of the daughters of the pilots are
seldom always happy to do so. Some if not most, will be less or send
them than the cousin of the profit of the rest of the loss or send
them the father of the two husbands that has him or her
saying it in any thought or the alarm on Jimmy Yahoo. May Allah be
pleased with all of them. When the sentiment if he had either a small
feat that really I had emitted Alba, Abu Hanifa Tenorman why they
will Medina Malik in the NS Why do you call a show how many research
Sheffy was a data center I heard in the handbell random image over
the over the baffle that will have aura or the alignment very
when he said a saliva safety in your Diem in the head it also in
the times that we live in and he lived about 150 years ago. So that
would be much different in terms of this particular
understanding of his is in so he said the Celerina or the safety of
your dean can be found in
taqlid, I had an email on your truck read means following
authoritative knowledge.
Some Muslims and we're charitable we call them well intentioned but
misguided misguided, will say this is blind following blind copying.
You need to know the Hadith you need to know the Sunnah, and so
forth. And while we don't deny that knowledge of Hadith and
Sunnah directly is a very meritorious thing and it's
important to have an actuality in the practical line of things. Very
few people are going to be able to have that sort of relationship
with the Quran and Sunnah that they can extrapolate and interpret
and derive legal rulings directly from it. It takes a caliber of
scholar a caliber of knowledge that requires many, many years of
dedicated study that very few people can actually reach that
So, in light of that, then the next best thing is for one to
actually follow something authoritative. In other words,
follow someone who actually is of that caliber.
So he says you're following one of the four Imams
who are known as Abu Hanifa. And Ahmed,
Adam in Medina, the scholar of Medina and medical centers, which
is the method we're reading, why the information the scholar, the
tribal police implement the policy 700 Minister Shafi on the line
distribute the 30. And the second sub week, the Hammond, after the
first of you will land on a metal holder because they're in terms of
guidance.
And more importantly, are just as important thing with a hibel, my
fulva Mahabharata, and their methodologies and their schools of
thought have been preserved, and have been thoroughly I would say,
the best word for this vetted, and, and investigated and
explored, right, they lived, you know, within 200 years after the
age of all of them. So we're talking in our 1440, we're saying
over 1000 years have passed. And here these four schools have still
held up. And they're still the four schools by which we
understand the legal aspect of Islam. As we said earlier, we
talked about the theological aspect, that which deals namely
with nature of the last final time as attributes that we should be
able to profit ology or profits, and the Prophet Muhammad SAW
settler, and the summary yet things of the unseen world, then
that's a hustler, a shiny metal, those are the two main theological
schools of 174, I have sown in terms of the legals aspect, or the
slab, or the outward aspect. These are the four, why not five, why
not six? Well, there were many. At one time, there was the amount of
a Sofia named Sophia in your inner city on the 30, there was another
remember poverty, there was another remember I was I met
Ray, Sydney, sad Egyptian. So there are others. And they're also
a metadata, but they're also the members of guidance. But we can
say reasonably, that they didn't have the second aspect that their
schools of thought were not preserved. And they were not
thoroughly investigated and vetted. You couldn't piece
together today is not material enough around to piece together,
what was the motive of a naked massage on every particular issue.
So when we talk about a meth head, when we talk about a fit school,
we're not just talking about one person, we're talking about a
community of scholars who spend a millennium who spend 1000 years,
and in each generation, there's
10s of them, if not hundreds, who have thoroughly investigated and
vetted and studied and documented
the methodology, as well as the derived legal rulings from these
four particular demands.
So it's like, you know, you want to drive a car today and want to
get something that, you know, works very well. So you can go to
the auto body shop, or the Advanced Auto Parts, like, you
know, we have in eastern Pennsylvania and go buy a battery,
and, you know, order some of the parts on amazon online, and maybe
get a, you know, engine and then get all the parts together and
getting your garage.
You know, look up YouTube videos on how to put all that stuff
together and make a car. And let's see how well it runs and how how
long it lasts and how well it's able to take you from A to B, or I
can go down to the Mercedes dealership and get you know, 350 s
class, well, two machine, you know, V eight, top speed of two or
50 miles an hour, you know, zero to 16 something like 4.3 seconds,
and I just made that up. I don't remember all that. Then,
you know, because Mercedes been added, for what at least? I don't
know. It's 7080 years, and they've had Ng and that's only 7080 years,
right. And they've had engineers and they refine their parts and
you know, just like all the other, you know, well reputed reputable
automakers. So why would I go with something that's kind of very
haphazard and hasn't been thoroughly vetted? So these four
have, are there differences between them? Yes, there are
differences in methodologies, and also differences that come out in
the actual rulings that they get.
But I like to follow or like to kind of go the way of the members
Shabani who said that they are largely united in about 80% of all
of their legal rulings, and usually the differences go back to
issues of ease or more strictness, right. Eliza mo Rufus? So that
Azeema is something that's more
strict. So we're going to read, for example, that in the med and
medical school, that in the world, for example, the Medicare have
something that the other schools don't have as an obligation,
they'll say that you have to wipe the whole the entire head in not
just part of the head or some of the hair as on some of the other
schools of thought. And they'll also say that when you wash the
body part, there should be something called Delk, which is to
rob. The other schools don't have that as an obligation, but they do
understand it to be something recommended. So the most complete
will do even in the other schools would still be to wipe the entire
head, and also to wash and rub the arm.
In this particular, ruling, the Veliky are more strict, are they
more strict and everything they're not? There are some things where
they're less strict. And there are some things for example, Abu
Hanifa is more strict, and some things a shepherd school is more
or less strict, and so forth. So each school kind of it covers
every aspect, definitely a very bad
acts of worship, and also every aspect of
Wedding, Marriage and Divorce law, and then in Warhammer that are
commercial transactions. And then the final kind of robot, FIFA, the
last quarter of 50 deals with issues of court testimony and
witness testimony and Shahadat and criminal punishments, and so
forth. So all of them have been thoroughly vetted, and all of that
we do not have a record like that for the other schools, we have
bits and pieces.
And in each school, there are all of these elements such as that in
the medical school, as I've explained in the first session,
you have actually many many opinions attributed to in America.
So it was it was kind of another second process. So just like the
ultimate of Hadith, had to sift through all of these Hadith of the
Prophet size seven, they all fit, especially in the Maliki school
had to sift through all of the fatwa and opinions of Imam Malik
all day long until they got to something a book like this, we
were reading the philosophy, we're reading the essence and the
dominant opinion in each muscle in each issue. And this is we're
talking about centuries of work that was trans historical, and
trans local, right wasn't carried out in just one place, or one
historical period, but iterative times over multiple historical
periods.
So there's really I don't think anything quite like it, to this
extent, to this degree and the other tradition. And so people who
kind of marginalize that or minimize that, or don't make much
of it, I think because they don't understand it. They didn't
actually delve in and see the type of work that these people put in,
really, so that we can practice our deen in the most facilitative
way possible.
A law
and then the natural question Does that mean, I need to follow a
particular school or not have in every single thing I do know,
that's not necessary.
As long as you're following something sound from any of the
four schools, then you're within kind of a safe area. However, we
would say for all of it in for someone who's on a path of
knowledge, and someone just want to make their life a little bit
easier, it is kind of easier just to learn one, at least in a bad
debt. And at least in acts of worship, right. And then when you
get to things like commercial transaction, things like that,
generally, we're going to have a little bit more sort of free play
as it were, in terms of which schools we take, because, you
know, actually, you know, all of the different sorts of commercial
transactions that happened today, in some ways, very,
do not resemble much at all the traditional hip, and the has to,
there's still quite a lot of work that has to be done to reconcile
those two things. But in terms of the acts of worship, we can say
confidently that there's nothing that's really changed. From the
time period we did now, say 1000 years ago, more or less, some
things would be slightly different terms of you know, things that
were very specific to pre modern societies and cultures. They
talked about, well water and they talked about aquifers and they
talked about you know, if the pail the bucket that you put in the
well, and the rope has measures on it something filthy, what do you
do so those things were kind of very specific
to their time, but the principles are sound, right, which we'll get
to Inshallah, we talked about the different types of water that can
be used for water and the hollow purification and so forth. So that
concludes the section kind of a look at the map, or the
introduction, dealing with issues of r theta.
We have a little bit time left. So we'll look at the next section
which is rather short there so it's major section or Babulal with
Fiat can and Islam.
Dealing with the pillars of Islam and basically cites the hadith of
Ibn
Radi Allahu Allah Allah who were on call also wise are ascendant
video Islam why?
comes, share the
love I remember her mother was with a lot, what you found was
solidarity with Zika was all about what had looked up the valley.
So
this hadith of the Brahma which was agreed upon by both Bukhari
and Muslim, so making it one of the strongest IDs or types of IDs
we can have, that the measure of the last seven said Islam has been
built upon five, namely, contestation of faith, saying
that, testifying that there is no beauty where they worship myself
the most vital data, and that homify sentiments as messenger,
and economist Salah, the perfection of prayer, so we call
it the Salah, economist, Salah that sometimes is removed
doesn't mean just praying, but it means to perfect the prayer to do
it in the best possible way. And we find in the hotel, that,
generally speaking nine times out of 10, when it talks about prayer,
it says about up most of our appeals on this idea of a farmer,
right, this idea of perfection of prayer. And so that's means it's a
process, and it takes a while to do and it also means that it's not
just the physical aspect of praying, but there are other sorts
of spiritual and other dimensional aspects of prayer that need to be
kept in consideration for the prayer to have the fact that it's
supposed to have and that's why it's the most important pillar
after the Shahada.
What you get is the care, right and the paying of this account,
which means purification here the purification of wealth. So to
avoid that when one's excess wealth, according to specific
rules, which will come later, one has to pay on that excess tax or
pay to charity. So it's not really a tax, but it's more like
an obligatory charity. Well sold me a little Milan, and fasting the
month of Ramadan. So one out of the 12 months of the year, the
ninth month of Ramadan, Muslims are obligated to fast unless they
have fallen to certain categories of excuse from them, they either
don't have to fast at all, or they have to make them up depending on
what category
what had another narration, we'll have the minister by the city and
also the Hajj making a pilgrimage to Mecca once in one's lifetime,
for those who have the ability to do so which generally means
physical ability and financial ability by which to do so
to make it to the Hajj. So those are the pillars. However, that's
not what you see them just that
many are the impression, okay, if I do these five, and then I'm
done. And that's it. And there's kind of this,
this
focus on the ritualistic aspects of the SNAM, which is in of
itself, not wrong, but if it's at the negligence of all the other
aspects of this lead. So, you know, the pillars then are kind of
our anchors to kind of structure our life, especially the prayers
because it's a daily thing. And the the fasting Ramadan, it's a
yearly thing. And this, again, is an ongoing thing and the Hajj is a
once in a lifetime thing. So we have these kind of structures and
anchors in place, but there's a lot of in between time, right?
What do you do in between the prayers, anything that you want?
And what you do in between? Ramadan's, you know, the 11 months
have passed, do anything that you want. No, these are actually there
so that you can structure the time outside of the bed outside of the
acts of worship as well, where they're supposed to give you an
edge and again, in those times are outside of it. So a flop and
Hassan right to have good character to treat people fairly
and equitably. And so forth. The prophesy suddenly said whoever's
prayer doesn't make them avoid pressure and mocha saying
despicable things and doing despicable things, then their
prayer has not has not benefited them. And they're gonna grow
further away from the deen. So they say that lace up hula masala
morphine
lace up almost all the way up. Not everyone who praises morpheme is
doing a call at a Salah is perfecting the prayer. So it's not
enough just to be physically doing. But one also has to be
drywall to live it right prophesy. So then we said we're GA Cobra,
tiny persona. And the delight of my heart or the light of the eye
of my heart is found in the prayer. It's not the prayer but in
the prayer. So it's like you're entering into another realm,
another world when, when you pray when you do the ritual prayer. And
so that should be a very high priority for all of us to think
about that and to do the best that we can with that, and so the Fifth
Aspect that will go into that we will cover
those things are dealing with kind of the outward aspects of the
brand well
The inward aspects of prayer, right? We're gonna should be
covered with things like an amen. Yet. We wrote about a little bit
about your heathen you man, but more importantly, what's called
escaping this spiritual purification.
And, you know, if you cheat and you swindle and lie, and you miss
inform, and you misrepresent and you pray,
you know, it's like having a garden that has a couple of roses
in it, but it's also full of weeds and thorns and, and, and rubbish.
People will not see the roses, they're only going to see the
unsightly things because you do have all those other things
besides it. So in order for one to have really the effects the
pillars that they should have, then it also has to be a sort of
restraint and avoidance. This is what we built up what proper means
to avoid the Haram and to do the things that are obligatory in
addition to the ritualistic aspects of the five pillars, and
it's not merely justified. So, next session is Allah will begin
in earnest with the fifth aspect of this book, beginning with
academics now, talk a little about the five
legal rulings and then right after that, get out of the huddle a
Salah, looking at the chapter dealing with purification and
prayer in sha Allah either. We're hammering the * out I mean,
we'll start off with Santa Monica Salem,
Sao Paulo and Zippy amongst the board said our city will come
