			bla Mila ramen are human hungry. They have been I mean was similar to us, or other food you can
carry more other early he was speaking of Jimena Salam alaykum. Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh. My dear
brothers and sisters, our beloved Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was the greatest color to Islam
throughout the time of history. From all the prophets and messengers, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam displayed a great amount of resilience in front of what was a very, very difficult time in
the life of any individual. Not only did he sallallahu alayhi wasallam put it upon himself to
deliver the message of Islam to the tribes to deliver the message of Islam, to the chieftains to the
		
00:00:50 --> 00:01:29
			heads of all the different tribes persevered with his own people traveled to other cities outside
Makkah to talk for example, but the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would take every single
opportunity in trying to deliver this lamb to even individuals. And I want to mention the stories of
two particular in particular individuals whom the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam delivered an Islam
to the first individual His name is Sweden assignment. This individual who is known in it was known
as alchemy, the complete one, and in fact, he used to live in El Medina, he came to Makkah to
perform a pilgrimage either the Hajj or Umrah or something like this, because the Arabs at that
		
00:01:29 --> 00:02:09
			time, they used to know how much the Eastern hour umbra, even though it had become corrupted in how
they used to do it. They knew that MCO was a sacred place, they knew that it was a place for
pilgrimage and that people used to come every year and throughout the year, to perform their rituals
and the act of what they called a burden. And in fact, of course, it it is not a bad because only
true worship can be to Allah subhanaw taala. So they were performing their work and so on and so
forth. This individual, he came to Makkah to perform his his promote pilgrimage. He was very is
known very well known as a poet, as a Shire, one of the very best, the prophets, Allah Allahu Allah
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:45
			and he was I went to him and spoke to him. And this individual actually had heard about the Prophet
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa salam. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, I would like
to hear of what are some of the words that you use that you say because I've heard that it is very
beautiful. So he said some poetry which was was very beautiful, and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam praised him for what he had said. Then the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, I have
something which is greater than that which you have. Here, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
did he respond with poetry? No. The Prophet sallallahu eilersen did he respond with his own speech?
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:52
			No. The Prophet salallahu alayhi salam responded with the kalam with the speech of Allah subhanaw
taala by reciting it,
		
00:02:53 --> 00:03:37
			upon completing and finishing some of the verses of Allah subhanaw taala, this individual so a
diviner Swamiji said, indeed what you have said is beautiful, and it is amazing. In fact, maybe it
is better than what I have said. Here the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam showed him and Islam
taught him, Islam. It is said to Allahu Allah, Allah, that when this individual when he returned to
Medina, it is said that he was he was actually killed by a particular tribe in Medina. And it was
also said that he, he embraced Islam. However, some of the scholars have differed over whether he
actually became a Muslim or not. And Allah subhanaw taala knows best, we cannot say with absolute
		
00:03:37 --> 00:04:17
			certainty, what his ending was. And, of course, his judge, will be Allah subhanaw taala. But the
point of mentioning the story is what is that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam at every
single opportunity would try to speak to an individual and deliver the message of Islam no matter
who they were. The second individual that I want to mention a shout out to Allah is a man called
profiler programmer at dosi. This individual was a very well known chieftain, a very well known
individual from the tribe of a DOS when he came into Makkah, because he resided outside Makkah,
immediately the Quraysh that they went to him, and this is what the correlation is what they used to
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:57
			do. When a famous individual, a well known person, a person who was the head of a tribe or something
like that he entered into Makkah, they would immediately swarm him go to him, and tell him about
what Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was teaching to stay away from him, not to listen to him,
because they were aware of the beauty of the Quran. For this reason, they said, do not go near him,
do not listen to him. And Allah subhanaw taala makes many references that they would place their
fingers in their ears because they wanted to try and stop themselves from listening to the words of
Allah subhanaw taala so they said to activate the neuroma do not go near Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			do not LISTEN to His Verses. They're like magic. You
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			over maybe overcome by what you hear.
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:45
			He was a clever man. He was a sound man. And he was a person with his own decision. He made his own
decisions. So what he did when he was leaving, actually he came into contact with the Prophet
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said to him, You are the man whom the Quraysh said to me,
Do not come near. You are the man who said that I should not listen to your verses. However, I have
heard you reciting certain verses when he passed, passed by the prophet, Mohammed salah. And so, he
heard the Prophet Allah says, I'm reciting verses, and he said, what you have said, is something
which I find amazing, and what the people of the Quraysh will have said about you. I am now it is
		
00:05:45 --> 00:06:10
			not clear to me what the situation is, I find you the complete opposite of what they told me. So the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said, I will recite more is to you. So the Prophet
sallallahu erysimum continued and recited more verses from the Quran. So to find it murmur, a dosi.
And I say a lot the Allahu Anhu because he embraced Islam. Upon hearing the verses of Allah subhanaw
taala. This individual, he embraced Islam.
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:13
			I want to take point here
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:49
			and state the importance of us engaging with the book of Allah subhanaw taala Allah Allahu Allah did
not reveal the Quran for us for it to be compiled into a book. And for it to be placed on the
shelves, maybe even wrapped up in a nice piece of cloth. okay for us to maybe just kiss it and then
put it back without reading the book of Allah subhanaw taala without us engaging with the words of
Allah, Allah Allah, what is the point of Allah subhanaw taala revealing this book to us and us not
engaging and reading it and benefiting it benefit when you're benefiting from it and understanding
it.
		
00:06:50 --> 00:07:28
			The Prophet salallahu alayhi salam when he would speak with the people, when the Sahaba Radi Allahu
Anhu would speak with the people, they would recite the verses of Allah subhanaw taala this is of
the utmost importance, what the Prophet sallallahu added some called his people to was learning
Allah Illallah to flee who, that if you say the statement of la ilaha illallah that you will be
successful. That is the assess, that is the beginning, the very beginning of everything to call to
submission to Allah subhanaw taala and every first that you find in the Quran, will be teaching you,
enabling you to understand your goal and your objective in life and that is to submit to Allah
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:29
			subhanaw taala.
		
00:07:30 --> 00:08:10
			And how many of us we have turned away from this message? How many of us don't understand the
importance of this message? When you go to the Quran, you will see everything is there. A logical
URL is teaching you everything that you need to know to how to submit to Allah subhanaw taala from
the beginning of Surah Al Fatiha all the way to Surah to nurse every single chapter, every single
verse is there teaching you how to submit how to love how to have hope, have to have fear in Allah
subhanaw taala when this all comes together, you will see that this is the most beautiful of speech,
that there is no speech that is equal to that. And that so many people upon hearing the words of
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:47
			Allah subhanaw taala embraced Islam, you need to look no further than the story of Ramadan Hapa
* Allahu Anhu he just heard, heard a few verses from surah Taha and his whole life changed,
becoming from being a very angry individual wanting to kill somebody, for them Subhanallah going to
the house of that individual, and saying that I am your follower, I'm there to support you and there
to support Islam and to submit to Allah Subhan Allah to Allah. This is the beauty of using the Quran
in our Dawa, to focus on the message of a towhead and to use the Quran.
		
00:08:49 --> 00:09:29
			Many of us when we are talking about Islam, sometimes we feel we have to give our own speech. And we
make the speech very long and elongated about trying to explain issues. There are times when the
best message which is delivered in a very short way, very clear. And this is how Allah subhanaw
taala explains things to us. Similarly, the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam in his hotbar in his
Friday Sermon, the Sahaba Radi Allahu Anhu would describe the sermon as something very short,
something very powerful, reminding them of the paradise warning them of the Hellfire, instilling
submission to Allah subhanaw taala because that is what they needed, not for example, giving a
		
00:09:29 --> 00:10:00
			lecture which last for two or three hours and the people become, you know, disconnected what is
going on, addressing the people in the way that they understand. This is of the utmost importance.
And this is something we need to return to when we are talking about the message of Islam. When
we're talking about giving the our return to using verses from the Quran. Use the words of Allah
subhanaw taala to to make clear the point that you want to talk about when you're speaking about the
prophets, Allah He must salatu salam, if you go to the stories of the poor
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:36
			If it's for example, in urban Cathedral, a very famous scholar and historian from Islamic history,
his book on the Stories of the Prophets, on each prophet, he has sectioned off all that yet that
Allah subhanaw taala mentions concerning their story. The majority of what is said Subhanallah are
the words of Allah subhanaw taala, who is best to tell us the story about the story of Musa he said
in Allah subhanaw taala, who is better than telling the story than the story of Asa risotto salaam,
then Allah subhanaw taala. And you see in this particular book that was compiled by Eben cathedra,
may Allah subhanho mercy upon him, that the story is the prophet majority of what is written there
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:40
			is a quote from the book of Allah subhanaw taala. Similarly,
		
00:10:41 --> 00:11:19
			when teaching our children and teaching our families and teaching people the message of Islam, try
to focus on the message of Islam. By using the Quran and the Sunnah, we need to return to this so
that we can give the revelation to the people and move away from the words of our own selves, focus
on the words of Allah subhanaw taala. If there are times when things need to be explained, of
course, then you need to explain it in a way that is simple for the people. And similarly, when we
deliver the message of Islam to people do not necessarily expect a result immediately. And nitida
Fody sometimes we are people who are very hasty, that you've given the message of Islam to somebody,
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:58
			you know it to be the truth, and you expect that individual to accept it straight away. Sometimes
Subhanallah is the Hekima of Allah subhanaw taala it is the wisdom of Allah subhanaw taala that that
person may embrace Islam, or may be affected by the message that you gave to them, maybe months
maybe years later. There are many stories that we have heard that the person heard about the message
of Islam only to be affected. Many, many years later. What is upon us is to deliver the message of
Allah subhanaw taala then we make dua to Allah subhanaw taala to change the hearts of the people. We
ask Allah subhanaw taala to allow us to be sincere Allahumma Amin BarakAllahu li wa sallahu wa Salam
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:03
			o Baraka, anatomia Muhammad, while early he was certainly Jemaine was salam aleikum wa rahmatullah
wa barakato.
