Who?

00:03:28--> 00:03:29

Know?

00:03:33--> 00:03:35

This is in this hotel,

00:03:36--> 00:03:41

starting from verse number 32. For those who want to follow up with me, during the class, go ahead.

00:03:45--> 00:04:01

Give them an example. There were two men, we gave one of them to gardens of grapes and standards, both of them would date palms and place vegetation between them. Both the gardens brought forth their fruit and suppress nothing from him, and we caused the stream to flow through them.

00:04:02--> 00:04:53

And he had wealth. So he said to his companion while conversing with him, I am greater than you in wealth and stronger and manpower. And he entered his garden while he was doing wrong to himself. He said, I do not think that this will ever perish. And I do not think that the hour has has to come and even if I am sent back to my Lord, I will surely find a better place than this to resort to set his companion to him. As he was conversing with him, do deny Him Who created you from dust then from a drop, then he made you a perfect man. As for me, I believe that Allah is my Lord, and I do not associate anyone with my Lord. Why would you enter your garden? Did you did you not say everything

00:04:53--> 00:05:00

is as Allah wills there is no power except with a law. If you see me inferior to you and wealth and children.

00:05:00--> 00:05:34

And then it is likely that my Lord will give me what is better than your garden and will send it will send to a punishment from the heavens, and it will become a barren land, or its waters will sink deep in the earth, that you will never be able to search it out. And its produce was overwhelmed by calamities. And he stood wringing his hands in anguish over what he had invested in it. While it was falling down on its Chelsea's, and he was saying, I wish I had not described any partner to my Lord. There were no supporters for him beside a law who could come to us help, nor was he able to defend himself.

00:05:36--> 00:05:42

And that is where the power of protection rescue along the true God, He is the best and rewarding and best in recording.

00:05:44--> 00:05:44

Very good.

00:05:46--> 00:05:50

Absolutely loud. hamdu Lillah wa Salatu was Salam ala rasulillah, he was so happy.

00:05:54--> 00:05:56

After the story of the

00:05:57--> 00:06:45

young men who hide in the cave from their people, a Lost Planet, Allah give us the story of these two men. And there is an early meta human law said there is similarity. The young men who hide in the cave, they were the believers and their people, the disbelievers. And what happened those those believers sold themselves upon the truth because they have the power, they have the age, they have the numbers in their sight. And in this story, the same very similar. One of them thought that tease upon the truth, because he has the wealth. He has the family, he has the numbers, he has all the things that you know, make person powerful, has power. And he thought that power will make him in

00:06:45--> 00:07:02

the right side. And he sees the other person who's poor, who's less than him. So the people of the cave, they're older, so the less than them, they are young, the foolish, they don't know, they have no wealth and not from the family, not from the Royals, not from the leaders, not from the

00:07:04--> 00:07:27

elites in the society. So they looked down upon them and basically rejected their call and hear the same story comes again, that again, people get a strike or when astray because of the power that they possess. And here the power that you will know, the power of wealth, the power of family, that our last one that I've given to this man.

00:07:29--> 00:07:39

And, again, the story tell us that the outcome is for the believers, like the people who have the cave survive, and their people die, and and help

00:07:41--> 00:08:24

flourished. And that false hood basically vanished. The same thing here, that this man who is a believer, he would remain and the disbeliever, the arrogant person, the one who rely on his power will lose all his power in the dunya. So this is the case always happen again, and again, I'll put on try to give all these examples one after another, as a reminder for us that we don't ever rely on the dounia don't ever rely on the power that you have in this life. And this power can be represented and manifested in many ways. It could be your wealth, it could be your knowledge, it could be your youth, it could be your

00:08:25--> 00:08:30

culture, whatever that thing that maybe will deceive you and think you are

00:08:32--> 00:08:37

capable of challenging the last panel data and challenging his rules.

00:08:38--> 00:09:33

The story in short, is basically two men, one of them have a very beautiful gardens that produced to him, all kinds of fruits, all kinds of vegetables, all kinds of, you know, grains and things that he sells and he makes a lot of money out of it. And it's very he's very wealthy, has a huge number of maids and servants and followers and big family. You know, like what you say he has basically living the dream you know, big house big on big Ranch, big farms, money that guaranteed and at the same time, he is no need of any one and things looks like going to continue this way for a very long time. But that person has wealth and power have made him arrogant, that he sees all this as a result

00:09:33--> 00:09:50

of his own work not as a gift from Allah subhana wa tada to the extend the tea doubted the day of judgment that because of all this part of the tea process, he said, I don't think there is a day of judgment. There is nothing can be better than this. This is everything.

00:09:51--> 00:09:59

And he deny the Day of Judgment. He disbelieve in Allah subhana wa Tada. He did not submit himself to Allah and his friend is

00:10:00--> 00:10:41

person doesn't have the wealth doesn't have the family doesn't have the numbers, nothing like the first one. But he's a believer. And he started reminding him and warning him that the result of arrogance, and Kippur will lead to destruction. And that's exactly what happened. where Allah subhana wa tada have given us a great example, how he destroyed the wealth of that person, while this poor man watching and that person in the end, as you will see, did you repent to Allah? Did this change this basic destruction of his wealth have made him goes back to a Lost Planet and realize the truth? The answer is yes, he realized that he should have not disbelieve in Allah

00:10:41--> 00:10:47

subhanho wa Taala. So let's see the detail of the story. Alice had a data set,

00:10:48--> 00:10:53

what do we believe her methodology lay in the journal Nadia had imagined attain?

00:10:56--> 00:10:57

give them that example.

00:11:01--> 00:11:01

Are we

00:11:03--> 00:11:03

here

00:11:04--> 00:11:05

30 to

00:11:06--> 00:11:11

give them and put forward to them an example of two men.

00:11:12--> 00:12:03

What does the Buddha methodology lay? It's a very common in the Quran, the Quran, use this analogies or these examples. Basically, he take a meaning and making it for you in a form of people a story, you know, so instead of telling you, Hey, don't rely on your wealth, he give you a story of someone who rely on his wealth. And he forgot about a loss monitor and so on always teach you through story. And that's one of the best way of teaching people through stories. So he gives them the story of these two men. And I've given many examples. And there are so many example in the Quran. To the extent that Rahim Allah have assigns it called in Italian on that and focus on all the stories and

00:12:03--> 00:12:25

analogies that are in the Quran. That the last panel data of giving an MA RT Rahim Allah is a great famous shafia scholar said and that's one of the best signs of the Quran. In one of the best thing to learn in the Koran to study all the exam anytime Allah subhanaw taala. He said, give them the example I'm giving you an example. study that example study that analogy to learn a lot from it.

00:12:27--> 00:12:29

Give them them referring to who

00:12:30--> 00:12:33

what would it be like? lemon law?

00:12:34--> 00:12:38

To whom and law speaking. Give them when he said them referring to her.

00:12:40--> 00:12:41

Give her

00:12:42--> 00:12:45

the Christian what would be the Christian?

00:12:48--> 00:13:03

Yeah, but we move from okay. We now talk about that the prophets Allah Salaam was asked so give them the example. Some random Assad close to the disbelievers of his time.

00:13:04--> 00:13:22

Poorly Kufa tell the disbeliever this example. Other Mr. Hama, Hama la said, No, actually tell the people of Quraysh this example. So the story of El Cap was for the people of the book, the Jews, and this example for the people of Makkah.

00:13:23--> 00:13:24

Okay?

00:13:25--> 00:13:33

Or tell the believers this example. What do you guys think? Can this example be given to the believers?

00:13:35--> 00:13:36

What will be the benefit?

00:13:38--> 00:13:43

What will be the benefit of making this giving this story telling the story to the believers?

00:13:45--> 00:13:49

So they know that the outcome always in their sight?

00:13:50--> 00:14:40

Don't be sad because you don't have the power because the people of Mecca powerful That's right. The people of Mecca koresh the disbeliever have the power have the wealth have the followers have the money have the resources, while the believers are few they don't have much they are like that. That guy in the story who doesn't have much and the people of Makkah represented by that man who have that big farm, the big the two great farms and the the basically the the has the power and and the wealth and and so forth. That's right. So that example also fit the believer. That's why the best way to say what the below home to them actually refer to all refer to the people of Makkah, to the

00:14:40--> 00:14:51

disbelievers and to the believers. And to everybody, even this to us today. This example good for us today, while Tony Blair who method of modulating

00:14:53--> 00:14:56

to men. Who are these two men?

00:14:58--> 00:14:59

Do we know them? Do you know that

00:15:00--> 00:15:45

Some of them for sitting in the interpreter said, they are not even real too. There is no real, this story is imaginary story, Arlo, who are metal nobrow. It's an example. But not necessarily means that there were really two men exist in this conversation that a lot of other said, If, as if the example if there is two men one person, but that's not a very good interpretation, how they will fall bobbin facet, it's wrong. Why? Because the last powder told us a conversation took place and challenge and a punishment fall upon. And if all this never happened, we cannot trust the Quran anymore. And Allah says in the Quran, woman asked the woman a lie, Kayla, who can be more truthful

00:15:45--> 00:15:55

than Allah, Allah said the Absolute Truth. So you cannot say this is not true, didn't happen know anything in the Quran, it's something absolutely must happen.

00:15:56--> 00:16:24

So these are two men, who are they, some people said, they were two brothers who their father died, and left them a lot of wealth. One of them give up all his wealth and donated for the sake of Allah and he ended up poor, and the other one took the wealth and kept it and never give charity and increased his wealth. And they are from the children of Israel since the story of a calf.

00:16:25--> 00:16:52

The question raised by the Jews, so Allah telling them a story from their history of these two men. And one of them basically, as it gave up was money ended up poor and the other one now became very wealthy became very powerful, but he ended up disbelieving and they said they are the two men who Allah mentioned in sort of the soft fat what Allah subhanho data set for up about about boom at about

00:16:54--> 00:17:22

noon, on a minimum in Canada yaku Nick and Amina Mossad deity, and so forth, you can read verse 51, all the way to 55 you can read the story, but doesn't seem to be very strong opinion as well. Why? Because in sort of the suffered said, I have a Corinne Okay, Kareem means friend, if they were brothers, he will not refer to his brother as

00:17:24--> 00:17:38

a friend. The Koran the way that what I'm putting it doesn't show that they are related to each other. Okay. So that's why also we don't agree with that interpretation. Other said no, there are actually from Makkah.

00:17:39--> 00:17:59

This example of two men, these two men from exit from Mecca, one of them is an assertive no Abdi shed AB de la, which is a disbeliever from Makkah, and the Muslim was Abu Salah, you know, Mr. Lama the process, William's wife, her previous husband, who she's a widow, she was married to

00:18:00--> 00:18:07

Abu Salah Muslim, Abdullah, Abdullah shed AB de la, and they were also related to each other, or brothers.

00:18:09--> 00:18:16

So she said her husband is the believer, but also this opinion is weak. In my opinion,

00:18:20--> 00:18:41

there is no one ever America and there is very good there is no every market and there is no to gardens like this a mecca. The way that garden is described is not something that you see in Mecca. Okay. And there is no any proof for that. So who are these two men? We don't know.

00:18:43--> 00:19:25

Would it make a difference if we know their names? No. Would it make a difference if we knew where the from No, the only thing we need to know what happened between them and that one of them are believing one of them is disbeliever. Honestly said there's not a history book to document names and locations and unless there is a benefit in that. So that's why Ron did not tell us who are they exactly? jannetty. Imagine we made for one of them. Okay. One of them. We had given two gardens. Yeah, set up. One of them. We have given two gardens question. The one who given the two garden is the believer of the disbeliever.

00:19:27--> 00:19:33

This believer but do you notice I did not start by saying the disbeliever we give him two gardens.

00:19:35--> 00:19:42

And Quran stir said one of them. We gave him two gardens. Why would you think

00:19:43--> 00:19:45

he led Jamal if you had a Tabby

00:19:47--> 00:19:59

and no matter how Allah said that a lost mother didn't start by saying the tea is the disbeliever. Why is to make the case strong against him. That ally say the one who ablest

00:20:00--> 00:20:25

With two guardians and they give him this and they give him that on it. So basically an after all, what Allah has given him, you come to be surprised with the nature of this man and instead of being grateful and thankful to Allah, He is ungrateful. He is Catholic. It's very beautiful. So he mentioned all the blessings first, then show you so that's what a lot that to him.

00:20:27--> 00:20:43

Then he show you what he did back to Allah. He disbelieved in Allah, he was ungrateful to Allah the way I am put the story it to make you excited. Okay, one of them have all this So what's next? He to sweet we call that they?

00:20:44--> 00:20:52

Then Allah Subhana Allah told us that he gave him two Gardens by you two gardens, two

00:20:53--> 00:21:07

gardens of grapes. Jenna teeny Minh and nap two gardens of grapes. And we had surrounded both with date palms. So can you imagine

00:21:08--> 00:21:15

they're two gardens of grapes and surrounded with palm date or date palm

00:21:17--> 00:21:19

and ham put between them green

00:21:21--> 00:21:33

crops which is means all kinds of vegetables all kind like a huge gardens that produce many different grains and vegetables and fruits in the middle.

00:21:35--> 00:21:38

They appear you might ask question, Chef.

00:21:39--> 00:21:47

Why any a lot mentioned grapes and palm trees or date palms and specific

00:21:49--> 00:21:51

it's amazing trees by the way.

00:21:52--> 00:22:02

Grapes is as originally it's a tree grows in cold in like a cold atmosphere.

00:22:04--> 00:22:20

Like not a hot country in the semi cold country. Okay, or a cool weather. But still grape can survive in a very hot country. You can basically grow grapes in Saudi Arabia today. And the desert in Arizona

00:22:21--> 00:22:38

and dates the opposite. Palm trees is a tree that originally grow in a very hot weather condition but can survive in a very cold condition. That's why you can find palm trees grows in very cold places.

00:22:39--> 00:22:58

And it will survive. The these two are very interesting. And one of the thing about these two than the all comes together in the Quran. If you notice, every time I look at certain Quran, he bring the dates and the grapes together the dates and the grapes together all the time.

00:22:59--> 00:23:07

And by the way, every single time they come Allah mentioned the dates before the grapes

00:23:11--> 00:23:12

except this time

00:23:14--> 00:23:20

for instance, and sort of Bukhara left outer corner who agenda to mean hearing

00:23:24--> 00:23:25

dates and

00:23:27--> 00:23:34

grave and uncertain nahan woman thermalright in an app that Luna Saqqara

00:23:37--> 00:24:16

and sort of the Nahanni put the date then grapes of it out of the bottle and Matata we're not we're not to make an album was rockin here. He put the grapes first. What if he had not Amina Heenan, why not and Satya seen Okay, so usually usually not all the time usually the dates come before the grapes but what's the reason that these two trees always comes together? While I mentioned these two together a llama said rahimullah for many reasons. Now one of them because they are the most popular trees among Arabs the most popular valuable trees that the Arabs value so much at that time. The people of Mecca

00:24:17--> 00:24:32

grapes used to grow in life and dates were in Medina and they are very well known very well respected trees. Also the out of the most expensive trees and they are the one who makes you most of the money.

00:24:33--> 00:24:43

Why? They are very expensive date expensive grape is expensive. That's it no grape and date can survive for a very long time.

00:24:44--> 00:24:59

Any date when it's fresh, then it became all turn to be dry date and you can keep it for all the years or more than a year. What about the grapes the grape turn to raisins. So from one form to another

00:25:00--> 00:25:05

You'll never lose. So that's why people make a lot of money out of these two trees okay.

00:25:06--> 00:25:11

And they said also because most of other trees die quickly

00:25:13--> 00:25:48

like the insects attack most of other trees and kill them quickly versus dates and grapes survive for a very long time and very successful business that's why it is the most valuable trees that the Arab knows. So, that man possess to whole garden of grapes and these two whole gardens surrounded with dates will pop apart bonds. So, that means he has a lot of what wealth a lot of because they are the produce a lot of money these two trees

00:25:54--> 00:26:04

doesn't matter, but most of the time they come together not necessarily every single time, but many many time these two always come together they

00:26:07--> 00:26:40

So, here this person in the middle have all the vegetable the fruits, the graves around two two grape gardens full of grapes and surrounded with palm tree and if you can imagine that how the palm trees outside like a skirt, it gives you that beautiful look of the garden you know it just gives you that long trees just surrounding that the two gardens make it so beautiful and also grapes when it grows up it basically they make like if you have a gazebo or something like that

00:26:42--> 00:26:47

Yeah, so it gives you a shade and just a beautiful sceneries it can

00:26:48--> 00:27:03

leave you to think about how beautiful this as they are. So in this he show us that he produce things that fruits, things that people eat as a food, okay. So you have the luxury type of

00:27:05--> 00:27:19

crops and also the necessarily ones for surviving. Not only that, they look good Allah Subhana Allah said also wa jal Nabina Houma za so

00:27:21--> 00:27:29

Allah Subhana Allah after that he said okay, so it looks good good days. But what about the fruits? What about the vegetables?

00:27:30--> 00:28:19

Does these trees produce the dates complete? Is the date that comes with the trees are perfect. If you go to the gas station here you know and NASA road one there's palm trees next to it. They produce nothing they produce Okay, you know but looks this tiny small ones like that. There's no point in it. You can really enjoy you can make money out of that. Okay, if you go to some of these palm trees doesn't give you you know what I have many times I tried to have tomatoes at home growing I don't know what exactly it got but definitely wasn't tomato. Okay, so you try you have some vegetables and stuff like that you have Mashallah a lot of trees. But did you produce? The answer

00:28:19--> 00:28:28

came to you from the Quran? kintel Jenna teeny atit akula Yes, Allah and Allah subhana wa tada Allah said

00:28:29--> 00:28:34

that each of these two gardens brought forth its produce

00:28:35--> 00:28:39

in full amount. Not a single tree was missing.

00:28:41--> 00:28:53

Everything was perfect produce full amount. While I'm telling them the minutiae, nothing was missing. Not a single tree messed out and its production.

00:28:56--> 00:29:06

Yeah, Annie Blam, tankless minutia and rhythm I said that shows you that one form of volume and justice is not to give people their full view.

00:29:07--> 00:29:13

A lot of people think injustice means to do something back to you, but not giving you right this injustice. Do.

00:29:15--> 00:29:34

You see I'm saying? So here that's why I said no. injustice happened to these trees because they produce they're basically production in full among nothing missing. Well, fidella nephila Allahu Allah. Yes, sir. This is very interesting. Listen to what I lost my thought I said. After that. He said.

00:29:37--> 00:29:44

We caused a river to gush forth in the midst of them.

00:29:45--> 00:29:47

I have a question for you guys.

00:29:48--> 00:29:51

What do you learn from this format?

00:29:52--> 00:29:58

We cause a river to gush in the midst of these gardens.

00:30:00--> 00:30:07

Once you benefit from this way of putting it it could be said and there was a river in the middle

00:30:08--> 00:30:37

but the way it was put was john De La Romana alternate something those who have Arabic grammar will only get it but doesn't matter if you don't enter Arabic the English is good enough now for German that has shed that it means gushing. That's why we use the word gushing because a lot question. I will say this again, what do you learn from this format, we cause a river to gush between in the midst of these two gardens.

00:30:40--> 00:30:43

He has no hand in making this water.

00:30:44--> 00:30:47

It's something was given to him by Allah.

00:30:48--> 00:31:09

He didn't dig a canal he didn't dig a well he didn't bring a palm. You know what the water is just gushing to him. So not only that, he got the fruits that you might say, okay, he could take care of his gardens. But you know what the water is completely from Allah Spano Don, what else you learn

00:31:11--> 00:31:19

shows you a less favorite upon him that is not only give him the fruit you give him also that the water what else you learn from this

00:31:21--> 00:31:26

we cast the river to gush in the midst of his garden

00:31:30--> 00:31:33

in a suburb and higher than

00:31:35--> 00:31:42

that means what will cause this to gardens to continue producing in the future as exists

00:31:43--> 00:31:48

what will cause these gardens to continue producing and full amount

00:31:50--> 00:32:23

sustainability which is water a gushing water a continuing water coming into the river. So not something he doesn't depend on the rain he doesn't depend on this water is coming all the time in between them. So that means that is water that is vegetable that is water that is trees. That's right. So I must say that this situation that is in it is something not only temporary it meant for him to continue this way for a very long time which shows your loss favored upon him.

00:32:25--> 00:32:31

Is that good? You following guys? So we have a dharna here Allahumma na

00:32:41--> 00:32:43

then our last panel data set

00:32:46--> 00:32:46

after that

00:32:48--> 00:32:49

what kind of thermal

00:32:51--> 00:33:17

and he had thermal property or fruit she in the translation he did not tell exactly property fruit what it means because the word summer is ambiguous words were not cut off. And that what when and why it's ambiguous because it means a lot Nokia ophiolitic their family and a lot of fruits. A lot of

00:33:18--> 00:33:29

property is that one of the meaning. They said it one of that understood one of the meaning of the word thumb up based on another camera. What can Allahu thumbor

00:33:31--> 00:33:40

with sukoon on the meme. Tamar no thumb. McCann Allah who thumb Ron faqad Allah sahibi thumb it means

00:33:42--> 00:33:51

wealth properties. That's why in the translation he said property could be property, one of the era also

00:33:55--> 00:33:56

thumbs up.

00:34:00--> 00:34:16

Sorry, not Yeah, I did a sukoon earlier. Now Bama, thermal, thermal, so more with me has vomit on it thermal, it means property with sukoon thumb. It became like

00:34:18--> 00:34:19

what Canada who?

00:34:20--> 00:34:21

film.

00:34:22--> 00:34:55

It's like when you say Samara is a single film is a poor plural. So it's like cassava horseshoe thumb. Same way of saying it. Anyway, I don't want to get you into too much Arabic details. Not everybody really interested in this. But here it means a lot of fruits. So he had a lot of fruits. A lot of production comes out of this to gardens. A lot of money on properties, then yes.

00:35:01--> 00:35:08

Listen dg, yeah. Well, Canada who's Mr. Carlin is so heavy and

00:35:10--> 00:35:21

he said to his companion, and the course of mutual talk that you have, we're all here any day talking to each other. Okay?

00:35:22--> 00:35:25

I know what it means back and forth when you talk to someone

00:35:27--> 00:35:43

he telling him his companions, but the Quran use the word saw him I saw him his companion. And here is an interesting that is still there is a relationship between them even they are Muslim and cafard. Then he told him

00:35:44--> 00:36:06

he had the conversation with him and the word companion here or friends, the general meaning of friends, because you might say sure, how come they are friends? And the process alum told us to friends only with the believers, yeah, but there is a general term of friends you can be friends with believers and non believers would with every would be people good and not necessarily to be

00:36:08--> 00:36:42

righteous. But this special type of friendship, that closeness it should be only to those who are religious. Those who have good morality. Those are good law. Even among Muslim you just don't be too close to a friend. Who's have no good taqwa. No Eman. Okay, so the people who consider very close friend to you is the people of faith and piety. Those are the people you take very close friend. It's like when you say he's his brother, the general term of brotherhood, the general term of friendship. That's why Allah said about knowing what

00:36:44--> 00:36:49

their brother said, because he's a brother to his people. Anyway.

00:36:51--> 00:36:54

He said an actor roaming command and

00:36:55--> 00:37:53

Nevada, he said to him, I am more than you in wealth. And Nevada. What's Nevada means? Nothing. It could means the family members, or it could be followers. It could be servant and slaves that he owns them. But McCartan said something. I 100% agree with it. McCartan said it means what a federal mean command and voila. He said, I have more wealth and children. So he said Nevada it means children. Why? He said, because when the Muslim replied to him, he said, if you see me less in wealth and children in Tirana, Anna can lemming comanda wala de later on. So that means he understood from the word nefer children, that's why I replied to him. If you see me with less wealth

00:37:53--> 00:38:18

and children, it doesn't matter. So that means when that rich person with the confidence said, I have more than you in wealth, and children, it could be also the other things like that. He comes with entourage, like people like follow Him and followers and slaves and, and work people work for him. Oh, let's see, he wanted to show off. He said to

00:38:22--> 00:39:05

me, I have all this, I possess all this. And he's thought that this will make him better than the believer, just because of the wealth that he has. And he went into his garden, while in a state of pride and disbelief. And one of them for sitting was telling that he held his friends and, and he said walk with me. Let me show you my garden. Let me show you the river. Let me show you the grapes. Let me show you the fruits, which are all what I have to to understand what I'm talking about. While they are both. And at that moment. Elon Musk said at that moment, he denied the resurrection. He did not solicit the co founder have been at that point.

00:39:06--> 00:39:29

He was not even cafetiere. But the coup took place. At that point. Some scholars said that called para la ucof. his arrogance made him away from Allah. But his arrogance went to another level now that he said I don't believe that GIF judgment is coming. I don't believe because Dave judgment means the end of the dunya and he said I don't think this garden can ever end.

00:39:31--> 00:39:59

It's so healthy. It's so beautiful. It just everything that is river there's water. There's everything you can imagine. Every reason you have for this to survive forever exists. Why it will end so that means there is no day of judgment that has mine. That's his thought process. Okay, he said Wilma oven moussaka. He basically said I I think not the hour will ever come

00:40:00--> 00:40:28

If indeed I am brought back to my Lord and the Day of Judgment, I surely should find better than this when I returned to him, so he thought that a law will because he gives him so much in the dunya it means that he is loved by Allah, it means that he is on the right path. It means the T wolves have the same in the day of judgment and that's just wrong.

00:40:30--> 00:40:54

This analogy the aka to the dunya is wrong and many people by the way, think that way. Many people think oh f God Wish I wouldn't be like this. You know, God bless me the oldest children blessed me with all this. Well, II think because God blessed me with all this I'm right. No, that's not true. Unless planet Allah bless you to test you with it. That's why I lost my dad I said

00:40:57--> 00:41:25

to him, they, they think what we give them mean man and woman in from wealth and children lusardi on a home full hierarchy. It means we rewarding them balayage the unknown and they don't know. They don't feel that this is basically a test from Allah subhanho wa Taala. The believers knows that the wealth and the children the family are tests from Allah. To see you are grateful, thankful to him or not.

00:41:27--> 00:41:36

Be very careful, my dear brothers and sisters, to make your wealth to make anything you have you possess, turn into an arrogant person.

00:41:37--> 00:41:47

That person will turn him to be so arrogant like this, that he can see even the truth. He can see how wrong is he is this is arrogance block his eyes.

00:41:49--> 00:41:53

Any nothing like arrogant can block you from seeing the truth.

00:41:54--> 00:42:00

I just the best example of an example. The story of Musa alayhis salam.

00:42:01--> 00:42:23

Can you imagine I just wanted to think about this. For our he sees Moosa and his people have lost split deceit to them. And they walk on the solid ground in the middle of the sea. And the sea basically split two sides. each side's a lesson in the Quran, like the great mountain.

00:42:24--> 00:42:33

And he's walking in the middle. And some even duration said Allah made for them 12 roads for the children of Israel, every tribe going one road.

00:42:37--> 00:42:42

And this is for our and this is solders was founded.

00:42:46--> 00:42:55

And guess what? did Moses take anything from Frau? No, he took the slaves and leave Yeah. And he didn't even he just took the turn of Israel leaf. What's around it?

00:42:58--> 00:42:59

followed him

00:43:00--> 00:43:10

in this this cannot happen for anyone that's happened only for what? For a profit. You know that this from God. But what block him arrogance.

00:43:11--> 00:43:17

He couldn't believe that Mussa, the Israel it can be better than me.

00:43:18--> 00:43:22

God must also listen to me through this. I'm a god to

00:43:25--> 00:43:32

an arrogant will lie. If he has if there is no arrogant, that's a stupidity just turn back.

00:43:33--> 00:43:40

If you notice the seed did not go after him. He went in the middle of the sea, that a lot drowned him.

00:43:42--> 00:44:02

But that's what arrogance leads you to. So my dear brother and sister Be very careful and arrogant. Maybe you don't have the wealth and the garden that this example gives you but you have something else made You arrogant. Maybe it's your beauty. Maybe it's your muscles. Maybe it's your knowledge. Maybe it is your

00:44:03--> 00:44:26

education, maybe it's your degree. Maybe it is your social status, maybe how smart you are. Maybe it is your wealth, and the income that you have. Maybe it is your fame. Maybe it is your nationality, making your arrogance and being looking down upon other people.

00:44:27--> 00:44:27

Good.

00:44:31--> 00:44:33

I'm Michael

00:44:47--> 00:44:48

shadowline

00:45:00--> 00:45:02

Shadow one.

00:45:27--> 00:45:28

Hey,

00:45:48--> 00:45:49

hey,

00:46:36--> 00:46:43

you know the reason for people to be arrogant actually, because I think this is facade for Africa. This is corruption in the mind.

00:46:44--> 00:47:12

Indeed, they don't think correct. And this is basically facade, facade. Also, it's a corrupt, your mind is corrupt. And the way you see yourself and see things as corrupt the way you see a Lost Planet, Allah is wrong. And the way you see the dunya is wrong. That's why you're arrogant. Because if you know the nature of the denier, never be arrogant. If you know the nature of a lie, you will never be arrogant. If you know the nature of yourself, you never be arrogant.

00:47:14--> 00:47:25

That's right. Just think about these facts. You will know that this dunya worth nothing. So it's not something you should be so arrogant of having it. What's the dunya means nothing to us, what are

00:47:27--> 00:47:32

what you are as a person to be arrogant? Nothing.

00:47:34--> 00:48:02

And that's why you're going to see how he replied to him in a beautiful way. And nebbia Salalah anyone who sent him said, Basha bermad forum will now X amount of light above and say Muslim, the process of them said you might see someone dusty, His hair is all over the play and it is Missy and you know, dusty and people meant for him when people kick him away. When he comes the close the door nobody wants to host him

00:48:04--> 00:48:14

because he doesn't look at any very attractive people don't people look down upon it. But such person if he says to Allah do something Allah will do it.

00:48:17--> 00:48:22

No Oksana Allah, any time he say to do this, I'll do it for him.

00:48:23--> 00:48:31

That person that you don't pay much attention to, that that person that you look down upon that person that you don't care for.

00:48:33--> 00:48:43

By the way, don't misunderstand. This doesn't tell you be dusty and have any hair messy hair. That's not what make you close to a lot.

00:48:45--> 00:49:10

Oh, there is kinda weird people understood this. We do have actually some extreme groups among Salafism thought that the point in this hadith is to be meant to look messy, to look dirty to look, you know, unpresentable. That's not the point. The point of the Hadith don't judge a book from its cover. That's the point of them.

00:49:13--> 00:49:27

Just just not right. So, in another hand, it also is a Muslim. A woman was breastfeeding her son and a man passed by her writing a very fancy horse and

00:49:28--> 00:49:42

having a very fancy clothes very expensive clothes wash Charlton hacer una or mala carbon fatty Ha. So she said, Oh Allah make my son like this night condyloma

00:49:44--> 00:49:49

her son left her breast and he said, Allahu merata jaldi mithila

00:49:50--> 00:49:56

her infant baby, Allah made him speak. He loved her breast and he said, Oh Lord, don't make me like him.

00:49:58--> 00:50:00

Allah made the baby special.

00:50:02--> 00:50:16

The process of him said, That man that she wished her son to be like him, cannot do it and Jabara. He said to his mother, this is a tyrant. This is a dictator. This is an abuser.

00:50:17--> 00:50:24

A person who abused people with as well, with the power of the law, giving him Yala, don't make me among him, or like him.

00:50:26--> 00:50:35

That aggressiveness that abuse of the weak by the rich by the powerful, it's an old story in humanity.

00:50:36--> 00:50:40

But unfortunately, it's not didn't end yet.

00:50:42--> 00:50:46

See how today, big companies abuse, the weak.

00:50:48--> 00:50:55

Look at today, how, you know, big countries and strong countries abuse and prey on the weak one.

00:50:57--> 00:51:16

Look at the power, when you look at the policeman because of the power that he get, how he can abuse a kid or a teenager, or a person that is powerless in front of him. Look at the military might to an extreme one side, and someone else has nothing. How they abused them.

00:51:18--> 00:51:26

Unfortunately, that story is unfinished yet the abuse of the rich and the powerful to the poor and to the weak.

00:51:27--> 00:51:29

The pack to the individual.

00:51:32--> 00:51:38

This is something sad. And this story teaches us to be careful from arrogance.

00:51:40--> 00:51:45

Then the believer respond. Yes. And I'm I love his response. I can't say enough about this coming verse.

00:51:46--> 00:51:48

Carla who saw hibou

00:51:49--> 00:51:57

his companion his friend responded to him while he is you have any argue with him?

00:51:58--> 00:52:12

Okay, basically talking to him. And listen, Alcott answered. His friend told him back. Even after this man said the gopher said the bad things. He still called them his friend told him.

00:52:13--> 00:52:19

It shows you that if you are giving dour, you always have to be looked friendly.

00:52:20--> 00:52:22

Even with those who said openly that

00:52:23--> 00:52:48

even though someone openly says something wrong, evil like what this man does that, but you still act with him like a friend. If you really want someone to listen to you. You have to act friendly lll Sahiba Well, how are you how we're while he is not shouting, no talking to him back and forth. He said, a cafaro Tabby lady Hanukkah coming to LA

00:52:50--> 00:52:51

saying to him,

00:52:52--> 00:52:56

but as for my part. He said,

00:52:57--> 00:53:14

Do you disbelieve in him? Who created you out of dust? Then out of not far mix drops of male and female sexual discharge? Then fashion you into a man?

00:53:15--> 00:53:45

My question to you guys, the disbeliever has two things, his arrogance. He thinks that because of all the power and the wealth that he has, okay? It makes him better than the other one. And also he deny what? The resurrection? That's right. That's correct. It's correct. So these two issues here, he reputed both of them with this exam with this response. Can anybody tell me how

00:53:47--> 00:54:13

he basically killed two birds in one stone? He the first one. He killed that arrogance. He shows that this person your wealth with money, blah, blah, blah, your half should not make you arrogant. Number two should not be think you're better than me just because you have power and all this. Number two, he basically proved to him that they have judgment that there is a reduction and the return to Allah. Yes.

00:54:26--> 00:54:32

Very well. He counter has argued being arrogant by telling him where you came from.

00:54:34--> 00:54:59

You came from a dust you came from as once. So Mohammed Abu sofra, who is a very famous general walking so arrogantly openly like this. sewed my lips and why you are so arrogant for it. Don't you know who I am? I'm the famous general. He said you don't know who I am. He said I know who you are. You should do why. He said you are you are

00:55:00--> 00:55:10

person who was made out of a lowly sperm and you're going to end up a rotten corpse and in the bit in between you're a carrier of your own faeces.

00:55:11--> 00:55:12

That's who you are.

00:55:14--> 00:55:18

So he reminded him where you came from, from that discharge.

00:55:20--> 00:55:26

And he told him where you came from you came from dust. So why you're arrogant, you start from nothing

00:55:28--> 00:55:46

like me and everybody else. So whatever you all you possess, should not make you arrogant because what you got is not because it's from Allah subhanaw taala that's how he started and also telling him who made you out of nothing can bring you back out of nothing, which is the return there is a reduction.

00:55:47--> 00:56:22

Then he said to him, also remember that the loss of Allah is the one who gave you the favor who who brought to you from nothing and make it grow in this beautiful way in fashion you in this perfect way you are right now reminding him of Allah Subhana Allah is favorite upon him in a way that he cannot deny it because he cannot say I made myself he can say or take care of my garden but when it comes to himself he have to admit that this is someone else have made him how smart he is how good he is. So reminding him of a loss pantalla favor upon him

00:56:23--> 00:56:29

It's a beautiful answer. Then he said to him you and He made you out of dust which is cheap

00:56:31--> 00:56:57

dust has no value and it's I mean I don't mean that literally but it's something cheap everybody knows it prebid step on it to make you remember that and think of it so you don't be arrogant then he said lacking now who allow this lock in now for those who are interested Arsenal camp lacking a soccer homage toward lacking lacking Anna

00:56:58--> 00:57:19

lacking Anna so the put these three words together became lacking. Lacking Anna abou a la hora. That's what's the original words is lacking an output. So lacking an old lacking Anna, lacking Anna,

00:57:20--> 00:57:44

put it together became Latina, who a la hora be for us for my part. I believe that t is a law My Lord, a nun should associate as a partner with my Lord, what out who should it could be Rob be ahead. No One No matter how that person is no prophet, no messenger, no gene, no angel, nothing.

00:57:45--> 00:57:57

Then he said to him a calf. So basically he, he because he told him Did you disbelieve in your Lord? If you just believed I did not, I'm still a believer.

00:57:59--> 00:58:02

Would this week on because only two minutes left with a karma?

00:58:03--> 00:58:29

I have a homework for you. Okay, we shall we're going to finish that the rest of the story. And we're going to read the story that the verse number 45, where Allah subhanaw taala said, and put forward to them the example of the life of this word. It's like the water, rain, which we send down from the sky. My question to you you're into to prepare this for next week.

00:58:31--> 00:58:34

Why Allah give the example of this dunya

00:58:36--> 00:58:49

by the rain. While I said the example of this dunya is like the rain, like the water that fall from the sky. What is the correlation between rain, water and dunia?

00:58:51--> 00:58:52

What's coming out?

00:58:54--> 00:58:57

I was thinking about this. And I came up with about 11 points.

00:58:59--> 00:59:00

So

00:59:02--> 00:59:05

I wanted to bring a point that I didn't think about

00:59:07--> 00:59:47

next week's show, so I want you to start thinking about it seriously. Think of a monk maybe they live in points. Not all of them. Excellent. Excellent. But not all of them. I made them up I studied as well. I looked at because to see it. But I tried to collect everything I come across. So try to think about it. That tickled to death. But let's learn a little bit how can we have the double color art and you didn't need to be a scholar to have to the broker Ah, by the way, it's not that serious. So something to think about it by next week. You try to come at least with one point. What's the relationship? Why Allah give the example of this dunya like water? What's the connection between

00:59:47--> 00:59:53

water underneath? Ciao, pray and we'll see shall and next week. Sarah monocle.
