			hamdulillahi Rabbil alameen wa salatu wa salam O Allah ashrafi MDR mursaleen Nabina Muhammad, Allah
Allah He was such a big Marine, about ordres due to Allah, and his praise and blessing and peace be
upon our Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and his family, his companions, his followers
until the day of judgment, mighty brothers and sisters, as salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa
barakato. Welcome to a new episode of The Magnificent Seven. Today, we'll talk about the firt the
fourth, the fourth category. Today we'll talk about the fourth category, which mentioned in the in
the Hadith of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:38
			with narrated by Abu hurayrah, that the Messenger of Allah said, seven or whom Allah would put them
in his shade, in the Day of Judgment, adjust troller I used to grow up with the worship of Allah,
		
00:01:39 --> 00:02:25
			a person whose heart is attached to the masjid and to persons who love and meet each other and
depart from each other, for the sake of Allah, a man who an extremely beautiful woman seduce him, he
rejects her offer by saying, I fear Allah, and a person who gives in charity, and conceal it to the
extent that is left canned, will not know what is hot with what his right hand is giving a person
who remembers Allah subhana wa, ala in solitude, and his eyes will up
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:28
			this great Hadith
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:44
			we've been discussing in our episodes, and today, we will talk about the fourth category, two
persons who love and meet each other, and depart from each other, for the sake of Allah.
		
00:02:45 --> 00:03:28
			I personally love this topic so much. I think it's one of my favorite topic, talking about loving
each other for the sake of Allah, about the importance of brotherhood and sisterhood. And I believe
it's one of the most important topic to be touched in this recent days, when we see the Muslim
world, in great need of revival in this Spirit, the Spirit of brotherhood, that we are all brothers,
and we are all sisters, we are all stands beside each other, support one another. I think, today,
with all these challenges that the Muslims facing all over the world,
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:50
			if you talk about the highest level as countries and states, or you talk about communities and
society, even individuals, we need each other, we need to revive the spirit of brotherhood, when you
see greed, and jealous and envy took over the heart of so many people. And
		
00:03:52 --> 00:04:08
			the Muslim community scattered because of this kind of diseases, which is will never grow in a
healthy environment, where brotherhood and sisterhood is the foundation for this community or this
society.
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:57
			My brothers and sisters, sometimes when I read some of the stories, to some of my friends, or even
myself when I read it, when people hear about it, they think this is impossible to happen. Some of
the example of so many people sacrifice so much so much for their brothers, for the sake of Allah
subhana wa to Allah, that love for someone that he willing to give up his own life, his own comfort,
his own wealth, just to please his brother. We all know the story of those three people in the by
the sea. When a Muslim man found three people who are in their last moment in this life and thirsty,
saying water water. He brought the water to the first one. But
		
00:04:59 --> 00:04:59
			before he did
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			The water he heard his brother
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:52
			screaming and saying, water, water. So he told the man take the water to my brother. Maybe he
deserved the water, he needed the water more than I do. He took the water to the second person. And
the second person about to drink, he heard another person saying, help me, help me. He said to the
man, go to the person and give him the water. He took the water to the third person. By the time he
read to the third person, the person the third person already died, he came back to the second one.
But he passed away. And he went to the first one. And he found him dead as well. Everybody give up
the water for his brother, he willing to sacrifice in this moment in this situation, just to save
		
00:05:52 --> 00:06:40
			his brother, this parrot, this feeling that you care about your brothers, as Ubisoft Gianni said,
will lie when I hear about one of our listener die in the West, and I'm living in the east. I feel
like I lost one of my parts. I lost a hand or I lost the leg. That's how much if he he feels that
relationship between him and somebody he never saw in his life. And guess what? I think this is one
of the most unique act of worship, that you worship Allah Subhana Allah by loving someone, and
caring about someone that you'd never even know. He never met. I know there is most of you out there
maybe I never met to my life. But I love you all for the sake of Allah. And he care about all of you
		
00:06:41 --> 00:07:03
			that that feeling that we need to revive in the hearts of almost some that this not only words, it
has to be translated to action in our daily life. One of the blessings that Allah Subhana Allah
Allah bestowed on this oma that he made brotherhood and sisterhood, part of our religion, part of
our religion,
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:28
			that we love one another in the sake of Allah. And we established what we call it a whole War II
mania. It's part of the religion, Allah subhana wa, Allah said, where a person will be heavily la
hegemony or one at a halt Allah Subhana Allah robe, the robe which binds us and don't be scattered,
don't be scattered
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:41
			or divided to groups fighting each other. Then he said, with Kudo niramit Allahu Allah can remember
the great blessings of Allah subhanho wa Taala upon you
		
00:07:42 --> 00:08:00
			in that he made you brothers. He made you brothers. This Islam makes all of us brothers, no matter
where it is, what is your race? What is your social level? What is your education background? We are
all brothers and sisters in Islam.
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:56
			In Nabhi, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Allah subhana wa Taala said, help Padma hab Betty
lil Mota have been my love. Indeed My love will be giving to those who love each other for the sake
of me, and my love will be given to those who visit each other for the sake of me, Allah subhanaw
taala saying that my love and deed will be given to those who advise each other for the sake of
Allah. And my love will be given to those who visit each other for the sake of Allah. And also will
be given to those who give for the sake of Allah, all those people Allah will give them his love.
So, the point is to is to be loved to be loved not to love, the point that Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:08:56 --> 00:09:18
			loves us. This is the great things because everybody can claim that he loves Allah. But the point is
Allah Subhana Allah loves you in return. So this he shows you this allows Frank Allah, his love
guarantee for those who love each other for the sake of Allah or support each other or advise each
other which is all related to those who are brothers and sister.
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:59
			For the sake of Allah. In Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Allah subhana wa Taala said,
also my love is being given will be given my love will be given to those who love each other for the
sake of Allah, and I will put them in my shade in the Day of Judgment, and I will protect them, I
will protect them, as Ben mentioned, a nice robot on the other hand, there is a great scholars among
the tambourine His name is Abu Idris aulani. He said I walked through the mystery of Damascus and I
saw a man inside the masjid. He is such good looking men. And this man was addressing a group of the
companions
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:47
			Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, but I noticed that when he talks Everybody listen. And
if anybody starts talking he will keep looking at him seeking his approval. He has a shiny face a
very white teeth. And he asked my uncle Who's that person? He told me this is my iPad Mini Jebel.
the companions of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. beaudry said I waited until fudger. Time
on a came early to the masjid. I found odd praying the before fetcher, in the first lane in
domestic. I came next to him and he said down. Then, after he finished, I told him, I just came to
tell you, that I love you for the sake of Allah. When I'd heard that, he said, Allah asked you about
		
00:10:47 --> 00:11:08
			law, that you came only to tell me that he said, Yes. He asked him this three times. Then he hugged
him. And he said, I heard the prophets of Salaam said that Allah Subhana Allah said, My love will be
given to those who love each other for the sake of Allah, who love each other for the sake of Allah.
Do you know brothers sisters, how old?
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:36
			He was when he said that? He was nine years old. From this early age, he know what it means to love
somebody for the sake of Allah. What's the meaning of brotherhood and loving each other for the sake
of Allah because it's something fundamental. That's why the prophets of Salaam said out the Quran,
amen. One of the highest level the strongest meaning of Eman is to love for the sake of Allah and to
hate for the sake of Allah.
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:58
			It is part of Eman as been reported by Abbe de wood through a booma model the Allahu anhu Allah and
other companions as well. In Nabi sallallahu Sallam said, whenever two people love each other for
the sake of Allah, love each other for the sake of Allah, the best among them, the one who loves the
other persons, the most.
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:45
			In Nabi sallallahu Sallam also said if you want to taste the sweetness of Eman, if you want to taste
the sweetness of female, you should love the person for the sake of Allah. In the visa Salam said
the person will be resurrect, will be gathered in the day of judgment with the person he loves. And
maybe sallallahu Sallam once addressed the people. He said oh people listen to me. Oh, people listen
to me. understand clearly what are going to tell you. There is people on the Day of Judgment, they
are not prophets. They are not Shahada. They are not among the so the pain or the trust, the
righteous the high righteous ones. They will be in a position in the Day of Judgment. Everybody will
		
00:12:45 --> 00:13:30
			look up to them. Everybody will look up to them and seeking to know who they are. Then and then tell
the prophets of Salaam describe them to us. Yasser Allah, the prophets of Salaam said they are like
average people, but they loved each other for the sake of Allah. Not because from the same tribe,
not because we're from the same country from the same race. They're only loved each other for the
sake of Allah subhana wa Tada. There will be sitting in a chair, mid flight, high chairs, middle
flights. And Allah Subhana Allah Allah will give will make their faces shining and the Day of
Judgment were enclosed, which is shining, and they will be protected in the Day of Judgment, they
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:59
			will be in the world have no fear in their heart, in the Day of Judgment, with so many people have
fear in their hearts in their day. They are the one who love each other for the sake of Allah. This
is what brotherhood will bring. And now we'll break then we'll come back inshallah, to talk more in
detail about the meaning of loving each other for the sake of Allah. And how can we translate this
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:02
			to actions.
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:12
			Amazing Stories
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:59
			of the end, as well as the stories that were told to us by our beloved Prophet Mohammed Ali salatu
salam are not fairy tales. They are not stories that were made up to convince us of something. They
are true stories that actually happened. They said in the message, the Prophet and his daughter
Sarah is talking. They said Subhan Allah because Allah they said, Subhan Allah, a cow that speaks
Allah subhana wa tada has created this universe, my dear brothers and sisters, in such a beautiful
way, that everything is balanced, that every creature has a specific function that they do not go
outside of that frame seems to pan on the how the Prophet alayhi salatu salam is telling us
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:07
			about the story that happened before us. And this reminds us of the fact that Islam is a universal
religion.
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:22
			In this program, we will know about peoples from different times and places whose stories were
mentioned in the Islamic tradition. All of this will shake, Lotfi will relate to their stories and
extract the lessons and wisdom behind them.
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:43
			Good brothers sisters, welcome back, to continue our discussion about the meaning of brotherhood and
sisterhood in Islam. And what it means to love someone for the sake of Allah.
		
00:15:44 --> 00:16:03
			First of all, this love has to be sincere only for Allah subhana wa to Allah. You're not looking for
any worldly benefit out of this relationship. You did not stablish this relationship, because you
are seeking something from this worldly matters to achieve or to gain.
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:14
			You love somebody only for the sake of Allah. Allah beat him to fame one of the students have an
amount of Sahaba jelly, the great companions
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:55
			of the law and water law once was seen by some of his students, dessert decorating helwa kind of
dessert like a cake or cookies for a guest, an old men who can see he can hear that old man Sophia
was asked why decorating this suite or this desert for him. If he can see it, if he cannot hear
anything about it, you can describe it to him. What are you doing this? Why do you care about it, it
looks nice or, or it doesn't, he's gonna eat it. Then it'll be said, if he can see if he can hear
Allah Subhana Allah sees and hear
		
00:16:56 --> 00:17:25
			Allah Subhana Allah, seeing me and hearing me and knowing that I'm doing this only to please Him
subhana wa Tada. My dear brothers, sisters, this kind of a spirit, this kind of sincerity, what will
establish a very strong relationship between us if our relationship based on love, if our
relationship based on love for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala only
		
00:17:26 --> 00:18:07
			if you want to translate this love to actions, to be practical and our love toward each other. One
of the first meaning the Muslim scholars mentioned is to give and support one another, to support
one another, as you heard, earlier in the Hadith, that Allah subhanaw taala said My love, indeed
will be given to those who support one another. Lil metabo Divina, Fie, Lil metabo zelena fear to
help your brother financially when he needs help, if you have a friend and you know that he needs
your help you give him
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:10
			one
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:34
			once one of the wise man or wise man, so, two people walking with each other, one of them rich and
another one poor. So, that wise man said are the friend he said yes, he said How come they are
friends and one of them so rich and all of them. So poor, if their friend they will hold one
another, they will help one another.
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:57
			It has an investor he said I used to know people who will split everything they have into half, they
will take half and they will give their brothers the other half the other half even their clothes,
if they have two garments, He will give His brother one and he will keep one.
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:38
			Giving your brothers as I said has three levels to give him what is extra, what you do need, what
extra that what you don't what you don't need or you're not going to use you get from from that and
this is the lowest level and guess what so sorry to say we are living in these days in a time where
people even if they have extra thing they don't want to give it to anybody. They want to give it to
anybody. They said maybe in future I will use it may be somebody in future will need it but the not
willing to give it to any neighbors too early needy to people around them they know now.
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:44
			Anyway, it is interesting to know that this is the lowest level
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:59
			another level which is a little bit higher than this to give him equal to what you have to give him
what is equal to your to what you have. So if you have something you give him equal to what you have
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:42
			Then the highest level ever, to give him what you have, in order for you to give it to him even if
you're going to lose it, even if you're not going to use it, but you give it to him and you give it
you favor him over yourself. You see Runa Allah unfussy him, what can be him kasasa, Allah Subhana
Allah describe those Righteous One, that they will give their brothers, what they need to use, they
will give them even if they need it, in order for their brothers to use it, or to eat it, or to
consume, they will love to give their brothers what they have.
		
00:20:44 --> 00:21:21
			You all remember, the Sahaba of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam when they migrated to
Medina, what happened? The unser offer them everything. They share with them half of what they have,
and the story of married mouth, and said, Robbie is very known and famous inside of Nairobi, I told
him, I have two houses, I have my wealth, I will share everything, even my family, I'm willing to
share it with you half half, you take half an hour, keep half and you choose which half you want.
		
00:21:22 --> 00:21:23
			I always asked myself,
		
00:21:24 --> 00:21:30
			if you are me, or he or she? They're in Medina and that time?
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:41
			If we are the one who now represent on saw, are we going to do that? Are you willing to give half of
your wealth to your brother.
		
00:21:42 --> 00:21:51
			That's why I always tell my brothers and sisters, you have to realize how great men and women they
were. I mean unsought of the law and
		
00:21:53 --> 00:22:04
			that they willing to give half of their wealth to them or hygiene, without hesitation. Actually,
while they are happy to offer that to the brothers and sisters.
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:45
			Say didn't ask before he died, you know what his role was, wasn't about how much money I need to
give to my children to my relatives know, his advice or his Well, before he died to his children. He
said, My children, make sure that you take care of all my friends, the one I used to support and to
help in this dunya take care of them, look after them, help them support them. Don't let them need
anybody. Because I used to support them all my life.
		
00:22:46 --> 00:23:03
			I was still a man, a Durrani. One said, I asked one of my friends, one of my brothers, I said to
him, I need money. Then he told me how much you want. When he said that. I lost respect for him.
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:21
			You know they used to say, the miser one who will give loan to his brother. They used to believe
that if you have a brother, a real brother, you give him without even hesitating without hesitating.
		
00:23:23 --> 00:23:24
			Motor riff
		
00:23:26 --> 00:23:54
			given I've given Earth man, if not, I will ask for 100 peace of Durham to currency was well known or
commonly used in the time of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam pieces of silver. He give as many as 400
pieces of Durham. And after a while, return it back to him. He said I didn't give it to you to give
it back to me. I didn't give it to you to give it back to me.
		
00:23:56 --> 00:24:10
			It's not from the good manners to make money out of your friend to make money out of your friend.
And Rahim Allah said, if this whole entire dunya became like
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:45
			a bite, and I will give it to my brother, I'll put it in his mouth. I don't have a problem with it.
Which means I don't mind to give him the whole entire dunya I don't have a problem with that.
Because he's my brother. He said How come a person will claim that is your brother and he will not
make do out for you in the night. You know, Rahim Allah used to have number of people that he used
to make to out for them every night, one of the Muslim Imam Shafi about a Mahalo to Allah every
night.
		
00:24:46 --> 00:24:59
			Adnan Mubarak used to cook for his friend. He cooked food for them. He feed them while he's fasting.
Rahim Allahu taala. Some of the earlier Muslim scholars
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:00
			There
		
00:25:01 --> 00:25:42
			are the scholars who wrote his their biography said about them. Some of them used to take care of
his friends children after his death for 40 years, let's say as a friend and he passed away, he left
the family behind him. He said he said he spent 40 years supporting that person's family after his
death. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, the people I love the most are the people who
are more beneficial to other who benefit people more and the deeds that Allah subhanaw taala loved
the most. When you make your brother happy, when you bring happiness to your brother or your sister
		
00:25:43 --> 00:26:23
			when you help him to pass a hardship when you help him in a time where he needs support. And Nick
chiffon who Korba when you pay his debt, or when you feed him when he's hungry, or you give him food
when he needs food. On the table, you bring the food on the table. My brother and sister the
prophets of Salaam said if I walk with my brother to help him to help him to finish or to help him
to finish something or some of his earns, let's say you walk with brother to the
		
00:26:24 --> 00:27:00
			police department he wants to have a driver license today. You want to apply for a driver's license,
you drive him over there, you help him to finish his test. You show him how to apply for the college
you take care of his need. He had his car broken then you walk with him to the mechanic something
like that to work with your brother to help him to finish or to do his earns or what he needs in the
base of Salim said this is better than staying in the masjid for a whole entire month making a T
calf praying and fasting and reading Quran.
		
00:27:02 --> 00:27:47
			In Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said whoever will support his brother when he needs support,
Allah will support him in the Day of Judgment. And the prophets of Salaam said in the end of the
Hadith, and bad manners will destroy your your good deeds, the same way the vinegar will change the
taste of the honey. If you drop a vinegar in the jar of honey, the whole thing will be not it will
not taste good anymore. This is the same thing if you have bad manners, this bad manners will give
you a bad reputation. regardless what good deeds you do or you practice. The Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam said, and this is another way to translate our love for each other, visiting each
		
00:27:47 --> 00:28:38
			other. When was the last time you visit somebody for the sake of Allah? When the last time you told
your wife, let's go visit this family just for the sake of Allah. When the last time that you drove
your car, somebody just not just to have fun just for a business. No you went there just for the
sake of Allah to please Allah subhanaw taala with that, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam said, Do you
want me to tell you? Who's among you? will be in Jenna. They said surely Rasul Allah. He said, The
prophet in Ghana. He said a Shaheed The one who died in the war is Jenna acidic, the trustworthy in
Jenna, and the newborn who die in Jenna. Then in Ibiza, Salim said, and the man who will travel to
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:45
			the other side of town, just to visit his brother for the sake of Allah will be among the people in
general.
		
00:28:47 --> 00:29:13
			That's why it was very common that people visit each other for the sake of Allah. It's one of the
way to translate our love to each other. I'll stop here. And I will see you in the next episode. To
talk also more in details about this great meaning, what it means to love one another for the sake
of Allah. Until that time, I'll say Assalamu alaykum warahmatullahi
		
00:29:36 --> 00:29:38
			bom bom
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:41
			bom
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:46
			bom
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:49
			bom
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:06
			level what is your education background? We are all brothers and sisters in Islam.
		
00:30:08 --> 00:31:02
			In Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Allah subhana wa Taala said, Hello Padma have Betty
lil Mota have been my love. Indeed My love will be given to those who love each other for the sake
of me, and my love will be given to those who visit each other for the sake of me, Allah subhanaw
taala saying that, and my love, indeed will be given to those who advise each other for the sake of
Allah. And my love will be given to those who visit each other for the sake of Allah, and also will
be given to those who give for the sake of Allah, all those people Allah will give them his love.
So, the point is to is to be loved, to be loved, not to love the point that Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:31:02 --> 00:31:24
			loves us. This is the great things because everybody can claim that he loves Allah. But the point is
Allah Subhana Allah loves you in return. So this he shows you there's almost to Allah, his love
guaranteed for those who love each other for the sake of Allah or support each other or advise each
other which is all related to those who are brothers and sister.
		
00:31:25 --> 00:32:11
			For the sake of Allah. In Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Allah subhana wa Taala said
also my love is then give it will be given my love will be given to those who love each other for
the sake of Allah and I will put them in my shade in the day of judgment and I will protect them I
will protect them as we mentioned, a nice robot on the other hand, there is a great scholars among
the tambourine is named Abu Idris aulani. He said I walked to the masjid of Damascus and I saw a man
inside the masjid. He is such good looking men. And this man was addressing a group of the
companions of the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. But I noticed that when he talks
		
00:32:11 --> 00:32:59
			Everybody listen. And if anybody starts talking, he will keep looking at him seeking his approval.
He has a shiny face a very white teeth. And he asked my uncle Who's that person. He told me this is
my new job and the companions of the Prophet sallallahu sallam. beaudry said I waited until fudger
time on a came early to the masjid I found more I'm praying the before fetcher, in the first lane in
domestic. I came next to him and he said down. Then, after he finished, I told him, I just came to
tell you that I love you for the sake of Allah. When I heard that, he said, Allah asked you about
law, that you came only to tell me that? He said yes. He asked him this three times. Then he hugged
		
00:32:59 --> 00:33:42
			him. And he said, I heard the prophets of Salaam said that Allah Subhana Allah said, My love will be
given to those who love each other for the sake of Allah, who love each other for the sake of Allah.
Do you know brothers sisters, how old would recent Allah and he was when he said that? He was nine
years old. From this early age, he know what it means to love somebody for the sake of Allah. What's
the meaning of brotherhood and loving each other for the sake of Allah because it's something
fundamental. That's why the prophets of Salaam said out the Quran, amen. One of the highest level
the strongest meaning of Eman is to love for the sake of Allah and to hate for the sake of Allah.
		
00:33:43 --> 00:34:05
			It is part of Eman as been reported by Abbe de wood through a boom out of the Allahu anhu Allah and
other companions as well. In nebby sallallahu Sallam said, whenever two people love each other for
the sake of Allah, love each other for the sake of Allah, the best among them, the one who loves the
other persons the most.
		
00:34:07 --> 00:34:51
			In nebby sallallahu Sallam also said if you want to taste the sweetness of Eman, if you want to
taste the sweetness of a man, you should love the person for the sake of Allah. in Ibiza Salam said
the person will be resurrect will be gathered in the day of gentlemen was the person he loves. In
Nabi sallallahu Sallam once addressed the people. He said, Oh people listen to me. Oh, people listen
to me. understand clearly what are going to tell you. There is people on the Day of Judgment. They
are not prophets. They are not Shahada. They are not among the so the pain or the trust. The
righteous the high righteous ones. They will be in a position in the Day of Judgment. Everybody will
		
00:34:51 --> 00:35:00
			look up to them. Everybody will look up to them and seeking to know who they are. Then a man told
the person
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:44
			Selim described them to us, Yasser Allah, the prophet SAW Selim said they are, like average people,
but they loved each other for the sake of Allah. Not because from the same tribe, not because we're
from the same country from the same race, they're only loved each other for the sake of Allah
subhana wa Tada. There will be sitting in a chair, mid of light, high chairs, mid of lights, and
Allah subhana wa to Allah will give will make their faces shining in the Day of Judgment were
enclosed, which is shining, and they will be protected in the Day of Judgment, they will be in the
world have no fear in their heart, in the Day of Judgment, with so many people have fear in their
		
00:35:44 --> 00:36:05
			heart in that day. They are the one who love each other for the sake of Allah. This is what
brotherhood will bring. And now we will break. Then we'll come back in Sharla to talk more in detail
about the meaning of loving each other for the sake of Allah. And how can we translate this
		
00:36:06 --> 00:36:08
			in to actions.
		
00:36:17 --> 00:36:18
			Amazing Stories
		
00:36:20 --> 00:37:06
			of the end, as well as the stories that were told to us by our beloved Prophet Mohammed Ali salatu
salam are not fairy tales. They are not stories that were made up to convince us of something. They
are true stories that actually happened. They said in the message the Prophet alayhi salatu salam is
talking, they said Subhanallah Baqarah to the Kalam they said Subhan Allah, a cow that speaks Allah
subhanho wa Taala has created this universe, my dear brothers and sisters in such a beautiful way
that everything is balanced, that every creature has a specific function that they do not go outside
of that frame cease to handle the how the Prophet alayhi salatu salam is telling us about the story
		
00:37:06 --> 00:37:13
			that happened before us. And this reminds us of the fact that Islam is a universal religion.
		
00:37:15 --> 00:37:28
			In this program, we will know about peoples from different times and places whose stories were
mentioned in the Islamic tradition. All of this will shake, Lotfi will relate to their stories and
extract the lessons and wisdom behind them.
		
00:37:37 --> 00:37:49
			Good brothers sisters, welcome back, to continue our discussion about the meaning of brotherhood and
sisterhood in Islam. And what it means to love someone for the sake of Allah.
		
00:37:50 --> 00:38:10
			First of all, this love has to be sincere only for Allah Subhana Allah to Allah. You're not looking
for any worldly benefit out of this relationship. You did not stablish this relationship, because
you are seeking something from this worldly matters to achieve or to gain.
		
00:38:11 --> 00:39:01
			You love somebody only for the sake of Allah. Allah beat him to fame one of the students have an
amount of Sahaba jelly the great companions have been Masuda the alarm and waterbar once was seen by
some of his students, dessert decorating halwa which a kind of dessert like a cake or cookies for a
guest and old men who can see he can hear that old man sobhita was asked why you decorating this
suite or this desert for him? If he can see it. If he cannot hear anything about it, he can describe
it to him. What are you doing this? Why do you care about it? It looks nice or, or doesn't he's
gonna eat it. Then it will be said if he can't see if he can hear Allah Subhana Allah sees and hears
		
00:39:02 --> 00:39:31
			Allah Subhana Allah, seeing me and hearing me and knowing that I'm doing this only to please Him
subhana wa Tada. My dear brothers, sisters, this kind of spirit, this kind of sincerity, what will
establish a very strong relationship between us if our relationship based on love, if our
relationship based on love for the sake of Allah subhana wa Taala only
		
00:39:32 --> 00:39:59
			if we want to translate this love to actions, to be practical and our love towards each other. One
of the first meaning the Muslim scholars mentioned is to give and support one another, to support
one another. As you heard, earlier in the Hadith, that Allah Subhana Allah said My love, indeed will
be given to those who support what
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:13
			Another little motiva de Lena, Thea Lil metabo zelena fee to help your brother financially when he
needs help, if you have a friend, and you know that he needs your help you give him
		
00:40:15 --> 00:40:16
			one
		
00:40:17 --> 00:40:40
			once one of the wise man or wise men, so two people walking with each other, one of them rich and
another one foot poor. So, that wise man said, are the friend, he said, Yes, he said, How come they
are friends, and one of them so rich and all them so poor, if their friend, they will help one
another, they will help one another.
		
00:40:41 --> 00:41:03
			It has an industry said, I used to know people who will split everything they have into half, they
will take half and they will give their brothers the other half the other half, even their clothes,
if they have two garments, He will give His brother one and he will keep one.
		
00:41:04 --> 00:41:44
			Giving your brothers as I said has three levels to give him what is extra, what you do need, what
extra that what you don't what you don't need, or you're not going to use you get from from that.
And this is the lowest level. And guess what? So sorry to say, we are living in these days in a time
where people even if they have extra thing, they don't want to give it to anybody. They want to give
it to anybody. They said maybe in future I will use it, maybe somebody in future will need it, but
they're not willing to give it to any neighbors too early needy to people around them they know.
Now.
		
00:41:45 --> 00:41:50
			Anyway, it is interesting to know that this is the lowest level
		
00:41:52 --> 00:42:44
			another level which is a little bit higher than this, to give him equal to what you have to give him
what is equal to your to what you have. So if you have something you give him equal to what you
have, then the highest level ever to give him what you have, in order for you to give it to him even
if you're going to lose it, even if you're not going to use it. But you give it to him and you give
it you favor him over yourself. You ever foresee him? What Oh, can I be him kasasa Allah Subhana
Allah describe those Righteous One, that they will give their brothers what they need to use, they
will give them even if they need it, in order for their brothers to use it or to eat it or to
		
00:42:44 --> 00:42:48
			consume. They will love to give their brothers what they have.
		
00:42:50 --> 00:43:27
			You all remember the Sahaba of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam when they migrated to Medina,
what happened? The answer, offer them everything. They share with them half of what they have, and
the story of Mary mouth and said, Robbie is very known and famous inside of Nairobi, I told him, I
have two houses, I have my wealth, I will share everything, even my family, I'm willing to share it
with you half half, you take half an hour, keep half and you choose which half you want.
		
00:43:28 --> 00:43:29
			I always ask myself,
		
00:43:30 --> 00:43:37
			if you are me, or he or she? They're in Medina and that time
		
00:43:39 --> 00:43:47
			if we are the one who now represent on so are we going to do that? Are you willing to give half of
your wealth to your brother.
		
00:43:49 --> 00:44:10
			That's why I always tell my brothers and sisters, you have to realize how great men and woman they
were. I mean unsavoury Allah and Omar bomb, that they willing to give half of their wealth to them
or hygiene, without hesitation. Actually, while they are happy to offer that to the brothers and
sisters.

said, My children, make sure that you take care of all my friends, the one I used to support and to
help in this dunya take care of them, look after them. Help them support them. Don't let them need
anybody. Because I used to support them all my life.
		
00:44:52 --> 00:44:59
			abusive a man a Durrani once said, I asked one of my friends, one of my brothers I said
		
00:45:00 --> 00:45:09
			said to him, I need money. Then he told me how much you want. When he said that, I lost respect for
him.
		
00:45:12 --> 00:45:27
			You know, they used to say, the miser one who will give loan to his brother. We used to believe that
if you have a brother, a real brother, you give him without even hesitating without hesitating

			moto riff
		
00:45:32 --> 00:45:47
			given I've given Earth man, if not, I will ask for 100 peace of Durham. The currency was well known
or commonly using the time of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam pieces of silver, he gave
		
00:45:48 --> 00:46:00
			us 400 pieces of Durham. And after a while, the US returned it back to him. He said, I didn't give
it to you to give it back to me. I didn't give it to you to give it back to me.
		
00:46:02 --> 00:46:16
			It's not from the good manners to make money out of your friends to make money out of your friend.
And Rahim Allah said, if this whole entire dounia became like,
		
00:46:17 --> 00:46:51
			a bite, and I will give it to my brother, I'll put it in his mouth. I don't have a problem with it,
which means I don't mind to give him the whole entire dunya I don't have a problem with that,
because he's my brother. He said, How come a person will claim that he's your brother? And he will
not make do out for you in the night? You know, Rahim Allah used to have number of people that he
used to make out for them every night. One of the Muslim Imam Shafi Rahim Allah Allah every night.
		
00:46:52 --> 00:47:05
			Adnan Mubarak used to cook for his friend, he cooked food for them. He feed them while he's fasting.
Rahim Allahu taala. Some of the earlier Muslim scholars.
		
00:47:06 --> 00:47:48
			The arena map are the scholars who wrote his their biography said about them. Some of them used to
take care of his friends children after his death for 40 years, let's say as a friend and he passed
away, he left the family behind him. He said he said he spent 40 years supporting that person's
family after his death. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said the people I love the most are
the people who are more beneficial to other who benefit people more and the best deeds that Allah
subhanho wa Taala love the most. When you make your brother happy when you bring happiness to your
brother or your sister
		
00:47:49 --> 00:48:29
			when you help him to pass a hardship when you help him in a time where he needs support. And Nick
chiffon, who Korba when you pay his debt, or when you feed him when he's hungry, or you give him
food when he needs food. On the table, you bring the food on the table. My brother and sister the
prophets of Salaam said if I walk with my brother to help him to help him to finish or to help him
to finish something or some of his earns, let's say you walk with brother to the
		
00:48:31 --> 00:49:07
			police department. He wants to have a driver license today. You want to apply for a driver's
license. You drive him over there, you help him to finish his test. You show him how to apply for
the college, you take care of his need. He had his car broken then you walk with him to the mechanic
something like that to work with your brother to help him to finish or to do his earns or what he
needs in the base of Salaam said this is better than staying in the masjid for a whole entire month
making a T calf praying and fasting and reading Quran.
		
00:49:08 --> 00:49:54
			In Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said whoever will support his brother when he needs support,
Allah will support him in the Day of Judgment. And the prophets of Salaam said in the end of the
Hadith, and bad manners will destroy your your good deeds the same way the vinegar will change the
taste of the honey. If you drop a vinegar in a jar of honey, the whole thing will be not it will not
taste good anymore. This is the same thing if you have bad manners. This bad manners will give you a
bad reputation. regardless what good deeds you do or you practice. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said and this is another way to translate our love for each other, visiting each other. When
		
00:49:54 --> 00:49:59
			was the last time you visit somebody for the sake of Allah when the last time you told your wife
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:51
			Let's go visit this family just for the sake of Allah. When the last time that you drove your car,
somebody just not just to have fun just for a business. No you went there just for the sake of Allah
to please Allah Subhana Allah with that the Prophet sallallahu Sallam said, Do you want me to tell
you who's among you will be in gender? They said sure, Yasser Allah, he said, the prophet in gender.
He said a Shaheed The one who died in the war is Jenna, acidic, the trustworthy in Jenna, and the
newborn who die in Jenna. Then in Ibiza, Salim said, and the man who will travel to the other side
of town just to visit his brother for the sake of Allah will be among the people in Jenna.
		
00:50:53 --> 00:51:18
			That's why it was very common that people visit each other for the sake of Allah. It's one of the
way to translate our love to each other. I'll stop here. And I will see you in the next episode. To
talk also more in details about this great meaning, what it means to love one another for the sake
of Allah. Until that time, I'll say Assalamu alaikum
