Rasulillah by the end he will be here woman while reading a little
solid elmia transit as knowledge and wisdom by mandala and I'll
read hudud
Moradi lo Tada and whoever interviewed me if indebting me.
We've reached chapter 39 titled ally in the world.
Ali and the world it has been related that one more hour we
asked Dr. Eben Dum ra to describe early to him the ladder said
exempt me Oh Commander of the Faithful, but he said I shall not.
To which he said, then I will say to this, he was May God be pleased
with him farsighted and of mighty strength. His words were decisive
his judgment just he liked coarse food and short clothes, felt
estranged from the world and its attractions. But at ease with
night, its darkness and loneliness. I bear witness that I
saw him once when Knight had fallen and the stars had risen,
wakeful, and his retreat, clutching his beard, restless as
the wounded, weeping sorrowfully saying, Oh world, deceived, other
than I deceive other than I come in literally very deceived other
than i
Is it for me that you beautify yourself? Is it to me that you
show yourself? I have divorced you thrice, so there can be no return
for your span is short, your worth insignificant and your danger
Great? Ah, the scarcity of provision, the length of the way
and the estrangement of traveling. More Alia, wept, raising his
sleeve to his face to stem his tears as best as he could. And
then he said, may God have mercy on my God have mercy on you
abolhassan. He was by God truly, as you say. There is evidence to
indicate that more we regretted opposing and warring with Ali as
others to regretted it like are you sure Valhalla, and Zubayr? May
God be pleased with them? Abdullah, the normal may God be
pleased with both regretted his abstention from fighting alongside
Ali. But the command of God was a destiny decreed. May God be
pleased with all the companions of the of the Messenger of God. So
how good is the same of the author of the Buddha shall now let's look
at this mashallah Tabata Cola, a little bit more detail in the *
alone from a little subtle love.
So this is more our who's known to have had conflict with Satan or
Adi Manabi. Tada. And then he asked the Ottoman Damara to
describe it to him. And he goes into this lengthy description of
how he was already done that and who. And what really stands out in
this description is how the Addie was Radi Allahu Anhu seeded it
with the world, and how it is that he viewed the world and how
detached he was from the world. And we have these amazing windows
into the pious in these amazing windows into the state of their
heart. And if this is beautiful, these words that we hear, and it
indicates to us his lofty state, and how detached he really was,
what then is the reality of his state? If these just this, this
small little window into that his heart is this beautiful? What is
the reality of that heart? And this is something we'll never
truly ever know how great someone likes, they've not even ever
thought about the latter and who that was, and that the rank that
he's going to have in paradise Radi Allahu Anhu. And just think,
how early he became Muslim and how he was with the Russell solid
licen him from the very earliest period and he's a relative of him
and he married the prophets daughter, and all of these
different great virtues of say, not even ever thought of. And this
is how we know the true people have a lot are, this is their
description. So he says that about seeing it whenever we thought it
was that he was by Eden Muda. He translated here as far sighted. He
wasn't someone they got caught up in the moment. He could see the
bigger picture. He would think about eternal life. He wouldn't be
gripped by his desires in the moment. He was far sighted. And he
was should either go he was a mighty strength. He was a great
warrior rod you allowed a warrior. And when we speak of chivalry who
was more chivalrous after the Russells that I said them and say
no and even me thought him
and that you owe fossil and his words were decisive.
The Arabs have what is called fossil kitab. And so we know that
when we're speaking to different people we have in a conversation.
And then someone who really knows and has their pulse on the
situation speaks in a way that they have the last word,
basically, no one speaks after the mix, they realize that was first
little hip hop, what that person said, was decisive, so that when
he spoke, he was decisive. That he would speak in a way that there
wasn't really anything else that said, after that, because of that,
how wise he was, when I did little Radi Allahu taala, and who, and
how that he could pick up that on people very well, he, in some
descriptions of him,
was one of the greatest of all people, then in terms of picking
up on people's tendencies and reading them. He was a master
reader of people, he could pick them up immediately. And it took
them a short time if they didn't speak. But if they spoke, he said
he could pick them up immediately. Because that when you speak, that
your words have the drapery of the state of your heart, there are
certain things that certain people would never ever say, what you say
indicates you indicate something about your state.
And that at the same time, he was just when he judged he was just
and whenever you judge on a situation, and whenever you judge
a condition is that this is what we're required to be is to be just
and when you are just as that you shouldn't worry about what it is
that other people think Justice is justice, if this is what the
ruling is, this is what the ruling is. And there will always be
people when you will justly about a particular situation that are
uncomfortable or that question your motives or that say this will
say that, but this is how it has to be, we have to be just and that
for this reason. Oftentimes, these people wouldn't want to be in a
position where they were made an arbiter wouldn't want to be in a
position where they had to judge between two people. And if they
didn't feel like the two people would accept their judgment, they
wouldn't have gotten themselves in that in the first place. But if
they make a judgment, it is what it is. And that you always have
people that are that unhappy about that. And in fact that this is
what we see in the story of saying, Oh man, a hot dog that
that the major one that I will look at who ended up taking the
life of St. Omar, it was because of a just judgment that he made
that he was just pleased with it. That led to rancor in his heart
and eventually that I'm taking the life of say no matter. So then we
even have a further description is that we are Gibble home and a Tom
Mahajan
is that he liked cook course food literally your gebouw this is what
he found tasty. This is what he was impressed with.
How many of us that when we find coarse food, that if that was what
our wives served us, or that that was the food that was available at
home? That that would be our state that we like course food or simple
food. How would we be? This is how he was he actually liked course
food. That's what he was impressed with? Well, mentally bassy
makazole and that he liked short clothes.
Yesterday show me in a dunya
these people were different is that he felt estranged from the
world was a Hara to ha minute dunya was a Herati ha and the its
adornments was normally it's the opposite. Most of us are just
attracted and drawn towards the adornments of this world. He felt
that estranged from the adornments of this world.
And when you hear these descriptions of these people, it's
like, it's almost even hard to believe that there were people
that were like this. But there are still people that are like this to
this day, that are completely detached, completely detached.
And then he says what I shall do he bears witness here. And when he
says it like this, he didn't just says that. He didn't just say that
I heard him say it's as if that He's emphasizing here I bear
witness that I heard him say the following. And He that speaks of
it in a very beautiful way. But essentially, this is taking place
at night. And he was clutching his beard. And he was described as
being restless as though he was wounded. The way that if you're
hurt that you can't really that lay down that you're moving around
a little bit you're in agony, almost say he was restless, as if
he was though he was wounded. And he was weeping, weeping softly
saying, speaking to the world
and the
it again, this is why the the tab insert that I saw people were you
to have seen them that you would have said they were my journey,
that you would have said that they were insane.
He would have said that they were mad men.
Because if you hear someone speaking like this to the dunya
Yeah, dunya
no one else was around. People might wonder about that person,
like, what is wrong with that person. And that, but this is the
way these people are. And the reason that they have so much
influence when they're with people, is because of how much
time they spend with themselves, working on themselves, that
hammering these meanings into the heart. This is what he's hammering
this meaning into his heart by saying this. And when you preempt
the love of the world that will seep into your heart that when you
go through the course of life, in this way is that the next day in
the day after an every other time you're exposed to it, you'll be
stronger that you will be that more detached. So he said to the
dunya dunya votary lady deceive someone else told to see me
deceive someone else.
And Ilya, Ilya to show 50 Am Ilya to Allah D. is that is it for me
that you beautify yourself? Is it to me that it's okay to partake in
it? Right but in a lawful manner is that it will prevent you from
truly that attaining that what we want to attain in the next world?
No. And then he went on to talk about this is that he said there
can be no return after you divorced three times, Hollis. It's
over, accepting very with very difficult conditions to fulfill
your Spanish short, worth insignificant in your danger.
Great. And this Arabic word ah
killing with a torture. It's showing pain ah, like we would
say, in English. Ah, it's a Kadima to torture.
And he's thinking now about this world and our path to the next
world. He's replaying it in his mind. These are the things we
should be using imagination for.
He's playing this in his mind now is that he's thinking now, ah, the
scarcity of provision manipulatives that he realized
he's traveling. And just as if someone had to leave in 30
minutes, and they weren't ready, and they just grab a few things,
but they have to go for a trip for like a month, the whole quarter.
This is the way we are we're not preparing for the afterlife. And
our provision for the everlasting world is scarce, couldn't get
desired will be the topic and it's such a long road, the way is long.
And on top of that, well, why shutter suffered? And oh, how that
in the estrangement of traveling, but along the way. And then when
you heard this description, then that more alvia that wept.
And he briefly pointed here to that some of what happened between
some of the companions that later regretted what it was that
happened, because they realized this was saying earlier than me
thought that they were wrong. And then in terms of their intentions,
is that we say Adam, Adam, as they were all much dead's. They all do
what they did for the sake of a larger Lagenaria we absolutely not
open up the door. For anything else. They made a mistake. It was
right Rhodiola Tana And who are Carter macho, but we have the size
that they realized that even during their lifetimes, that he
was the one that was that was correct.
And then
he goes on to quote, some poetry from the border Sharifah and then
another poem of a memorable city, and then a poem of a holly livin
Akhmad and other so once you just read through those
I beg of God forgiveness, forgiveness for saying and not
doing, thus attributing offspring to one sterile. I ordered you to
do good but myself did not obey. Neither was I upright How can I
ask you to be? I stored no provisions of devotions before
death. I prayed and fasted only when obliged. I neglected the
example of you who kept awake in the dark so long that his feet
suffered and were swollen, who braced his stomach from hunger,
tiny stones to his gracious side. Proud mounds of gold offered
themselves to him who showed them how pride should be. His
detachment was emphasized by his want,
but one cannot overcome divine protection. How can one attract
the world he without whom the world should not exist?
Mohammed master of
The two worlds and the two weighty beans and the two groups the Arabs
and the non Arabs. So that's in the border Sharifah and in many
places in the Muslim world was recited
on a weekly basis.
And we were staight these lines is that we should bring the heart
that when they're saying this, they're not just saying this to
say this. They're actually forcing themselves to believe that about
themselves, because that's the reality. It's the reality. So it's
not just like, oh, that sounds good. We're so humble. Wow, we're
just tau is like, we really believe that about ourselves. The
point of reciting that is that week in week and week, after week,
after week after week, is that is how you view yourself. You remain
broken we for Allah, you make no claims that you realize that
you're just hanging on and hope that Allah to other shows mercy to
all of us. He also says in his poem, and the past year of lambda
lamea.
Till When shall you remain absorbed in your pleasures, when
she shall account for every act? Every day you leave repentance for
the morrow? The power of your resolution dissolved by delay? No.
And Al HollyWell been Achmed says May God's mercy be on him. It is
both one night after the other day after day and month after month,
stages drawing new things to decay and lowering the remains of
nobleman into the grave. They give the wives of jealous men to others
and take that which the avaricious had set by another poet says,
wealth I see adds to your longing for the world as if you are to
live forever. Is there a limit that you might reach where you
would say enough, I'm satisfied.
time we're gonna go right into chapter 14 In the later
chapter 40, the companions in the world. It is related that when he
breathed Abu Bakr Siddiq, may God be pleased with him exalt exhaled,
the smell of grilled liver. It was said later that this was because
of his excessive fear of God the Exalted because of his grief and
sorrow at the death of the Messenger of God May blessings and
peace be upon him and his family, or due to the effects of vipers
venom, for he had been bitten while blocking a hole with his
heel to protect the messenger of God made peace May blessings and
peace be upon him. On the night they were in a cave, or lastly
because of poisoned food. He wants ate together with a Bedouin, whose
names whose name was I think, Al Harith, this man had knowledge of
medicine and when he tasted the poison, told aboubaker The food is
poisoned a year from now we shall die from it. It is sad that they
both did die on the same day, when aboubaker felt ill they asked him
if, if they should not bring him a physician. But he answered, the
physician has looked at me and I said, I do as I will. Or according
to another version, it is the physician who has made me ill.
meaning by that the Lord Exalted is He, when he felt weak and
designated Armada as his companion. He ordered them to
return the little that had been his share from the treasury of
almost at which the latter remarked, he has made it hard for
those who will succeed him. As for automotive, and we'll hop on the
show now. So he's going to tell us a little bit about some of the
that he's going to end with a series of biographies of some of
the great companions of the resource Allah Allahu Allahu wa
salam.
And he began with sin and Bakr Siddiq encoding some of the
greatest stories that relate to him is that they used to smell
that the scent that when they were around him, as if that it was
like, of, like burnt liver, like he transmits he was grilled,
that's what mush we really mean. But like something was burning,
and he mentioned the, the possible opinions from that some say was
from the fear of Allah. Others say was by sorrow of the death and
messenger of Allah, others relegated to an outward type of
cause. I've also heard my teacher say that it was from the muhabba
the fire of hub the fire of love that was raging in his heart for
literal Sol Sol alai, Sanam is that it caused him that I met when
he was about to return to Allah, this is that his state complete
Tawakkol and Allah, complete to occur, and generally speaking, is
that it's not an obligation to see a doctor. If you wanted to submit
to the Divine Decree that's up to you. It's not an obligation see a
doctor. And he was in a state of divine witnessing. And that's how
you explain his state. The vast majority of us would seek a doctor
to try to live longer and so forth. He says, that the physician
has looked at me and said, I do as I will, meaning that Allah to
Allah put him in that situation. Allah put him in that situation.
That's what was dominating his heart in that moment or
are in the generation. It is the physician who made me ill in the
first place meaning that Allah put me in the situation, why would I
want anything else? And this is the highest degree of contentment
with the divine decreasing everything being from Allah, and
that's Allah's Will in the moment. So when you're immersed in that
state, how could you ask for a physician? It's from Allah.
Allah put you in that situation. Now, if that's not your state of
witnessing that, at very least we have patients, and we try to
strive towards contentment with the Divine decree and that content
with a Divine Decree does not mean that we don't seek a physician and
seek the means that you could still be content and seek the
means. But this is that an overwhelmingly powerful state of
people who reached the highest degrees of closeness to Allah
Jalla Jalla Allah, and then as for Saint Omar,
oh, and then just that when he
that towards the end of his life, he only took very, very little it
was absolutely necessary, that when he was the KDF, he only took
what at what was absolutely necessary. And that say no more
sir, this amazing statement, look at OB men yet to badDo like God
adab men yet de badDo he has made it hard for those who will succeed
him, how am I going to live up to that, like taking that little in
being that minimalistic and degree of Tacoma. We have to the hood of
Russia, we have to follow them and in that resemble them up, he's
made it difficult for people who come after him, played as per se
no matter
as syndrome or even bother me, God the Exalted be pleased with him.
He ate barley during his caliphate and patched his own clothes. His
conduct is very well known. He would read verses from the book of
God during his night prayers, then become overwhelmed with fear, fall
to the ground become Ill stay at home, and people would visit him
the same way they visited the sick. He would be unconscious for
extended periods of time, at times, Radi Allahu Taala unhook
from the power of the verses that they had over him. And we know
that he lived very minimalistic ly as well. The famous story that
we've all heard were sent a woman a hilltop that realize is that his
wife had been that saving a small amount of money for an extended
period of time to eventually buy some sweets. And then he came home
and said, What is this is that and she explained to him, and that he
said, that means that we're taking too much from the Treasury. Now
compare that to the state of the Muslim world now that hold our
courts,
or all of our states llt from Allah, your store, and you may
Allah protect us and forgive us. But this is his degree of
sincerity. He only wanted to take that what was absolutely
necessary. And say, No, I will book her as well after he became
the caliph is that there was a elderly woman that he used to milk
her goats. And he was seeing the second day after becoming KOF
milking the same goats. And then he said that someone said your
honey, you are you are the Khalifa Rasulullah. And that, you know,
how do you how what are you doing this for? They said that I didn't
want to leave anything that I did before. He's the Caleb. But at the
same time, he's milking the goats of someone who is unable to look
her goats. This is the way these people were completely humility,
complete humility, they didn't see any type of service beneath them.
whatsoever. The true people will see no type of surface beneath
them. They will do any type of service. And in fact, that they
don't see themselves worthy of any type of service. If we're all
working together, or whatever type of service it is that we're doing.
Just look at the beauty of that if everyone actually really sees
themselves not worthy to do any type of service, and that they're
the ones that are in need of that service for themselves, as opposed
to the opposite. That is amazing. Think about the synergy that will
be there and the blessing that will be there in that group or in
that organization or whatever it might be.
They
dipped in oil, when the perpetrators of outrage, climbed
onto his house, entered it and murdered him. He said, Oh God
unite the nation of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the
Quran was on his lap and someone his blood fell on his words
Exalted is He, God will suffice you against them, and he is to
hearing the knowing. Later on. One of the companions possibly
Abdullah bin sallam said, had he not prayed that God the Exalted
should unite the nation. It would have never united after him. So
just imagine that
Someone's coming to take your life. And first of all he told me
in hasn't seen her since the start they regarding the his house. And
the bohart are the rebels that the ones that are rebelling against
the bailiff, and to sow water. So they jumped over the walls and
they entered into his house. And as they're entering in and then
they ruthlessly that took his life along each mountain with a
Muhammad, he's making the DUA along the edge, which one of us
would be in that moment? The people that are taking your life
that you're asking a law to unite the OMA of Siena, Muhammad, Salah
liason look at the you talk about the importance of unity,
his life was taken, and this is his last dua to unite the nation
of Satan and Mohamed Salah Lai Sana and he had the Quran in his
lap, and blood went fell onto the most half. And that this is the
verse that he was that upon the verse forsake feet, Goma law,
well, who was Simeon, I mean, God will suffice you against him, and
he is the hearing the knowing, and he was fasting on that day. But
these people are different. They always look at things with that to
eyes, the eye of the outward in the eye of the inward, which gives
them that
that spiritual depth perception is that they see things in different
ways. Their awareness is different than other people that morning, or
that night before is that you saw dream that the Prophet SAW THE
licen and told them that you are going to break your fast with me
tomorrow. So he knew he knew he was going to meet Allah.
And if that's the case, he knew how to conduct himself. Imagine
that. That scene, rasool Allah saying this is going to be your
last day what would be your state, knowing that your last day and you
know you're going to meet your Lord? Because the prophets words
are true? How would we be you know what would come out in us? And we
asked Allah that He would give us the courage to be in the state
that we need to be in before we meet him gentle gelato yah, yah,
yah.
None as for seeing it.
As for say, Now, Ali, had been early.
May God be pleased with him. He used to eat barley as a que live
and to shorten the sleeves of his shirt to the wrist or the
fingertips. When criticized for the roughness of his lifestyle and
clothes, he replied, may God be pleased with him. It is so that
the Muslims may take me as example and not despise the poor because
of their poverty. This was the pattern of behavior of the first
among the immigrants and helpers may God be pleased with them all.
They took little from this world so these are known as the sabich
mean in a womb, a Saba Hornet over Luna was sabich Clean over the
moon and mahadji DANA What and saw they have a special rank with
Allah to add and we know that they're all the people who have
received the forgiveness of Allah and His contentment now, this is
the way they were a one. They took little from this world and
confined themselves to essentials to strictly necessary. Their
biographies testify to this, those of such people as Amar abou Obeid,
Abu Zubaydah, Ibn Al Giraph, more of the bingeable Abdullah Khalifa
hubub Ibn a lot, a lot and yet Ben Ben Malik. Those also were the
leaders among the followers such as Imam Ali Zainul, Aberdeen son
of Imam Hussain, his son Al Baqir Al Bachir. His grandson Jaffa
sir Syed Saeed. They're easily you're even Anamosa you
are more
than Abdulazeez way so corny, hadn't been Hyun al Hassan Al
Basri Abu hasm al Madani we're apart even a set a certain so to
where the followers of the followers such as the four Imams
for later then yet there yet, Ibrahim, then Adam, Ibrahim Tamie,
Malik Ben dinar and others of the three of the first three best
generations. He said My blessings and peace be upon the best
generation is my generation, then those who will follow them then
Cloney currently filming under the new law no home no repeating then
those who will follow them two or three times three times as I said
my blessings and peace be upon him and each of my communities
generations that will be out strippers. Now, so frequently
current naman Almighty Sabbir Khan.
So the cyber Kannada they're the
The foremost the the highest degree frequently occurring in
every century in every generation is that from among my alma, there
will be savy Kuhn.
And then another Hadith that the Prophet sublicensed said is that
my Alma is like rain, you do not know that which is the best part
of it the first or the last. And in general that doesn't negate
what the prophet just said here that the no doubt the first
centuries are the best. And that in particular, that we have enough
for the first three centuries. But then, in each time that you will
have people that reach the highest views of closest to Allah so you
could have someone that comes much later that is better than someone
who came much earlier
from the bounty of Allah Jalla gelato and then you have very,
very special Imams that are allowed to add postpones to come
so that they could just be Rama, mercy for the people and their
time. And one of them is the great new mama biller went out with her
dad he actually used to say that
the matter is indeed so but they are growing smaller number and at
certain periods conceal themselves but are never altogether upset. He
said me peace be upon him a community will never perish which
has me at its beginning. And Jesus the son of Mary at his at its end,
we have mentioned some glimpses of the ways of the our predecessors
in our book, the complete summons and made frequent references to
them in our poem, which begins with Oh you who asked about my
tears and the size shaking my ribs. And ample commentary on this
poem was made by one of our closest companions to Sayed the
scholar the authority of the Sufi, the Sharif had been Zayn al
Habashi. Allah we, he mentioned some of the merits of every person
mentioned in the poem. As for this present book, because of our aim
is because our aim is to make it brief, we have refrained from
elaborating on their merits. They are mentioned in abundance and
other works such as Siata, Salah, much not that good ol Kulu by
Imam, abou toilet and McKee, and the idea of the proof of Islam as
well as other works of biography and history. Let him who wishes to
know the pattern of our virtuous predecessors, the Companions,
followers and followers of the followers, pursue them pretty was
never used, and when I read them closely, he will then know how
they gave precedents to the life to come over this one we're
content with little of this world where neither deceived by the
world's beauty nor eager to enjoy its pleasures even though they
were fully able to do so in a lawful manner.
Not shall not America
and then the Arabic the English, there's some lines here that are
included that the mama now we mentioned in the beginning of the
rattle Saudi here in the Lila Ibadan full fauna, Toluca dunya
will help will fit on a nother trophy Half Ironman anymore, and
Lisa Lee Hyun Wattana Josue legit and what the whole saga had Amani
fie her. So phono
is a very, very famous lines of poetry. And they roughly translate
as that indeed, that Allah has Subhana wa Tada. servants that are
full Donna, that our subconscious, wise, intelligent talakad Dunya
they have divorced the world and that they have feared it's fitna.
Okay, the fitna of the world, its trials, not little fear. They took
a very close look at the world. And when they came to know that
it's not an a boat, for a living person, they're going to go
through this world they're not going to remain here. So what did
they do that Jack Aloha legit and they regarded it as a see
something that you need to traverse not just going to sit in
the water all the time that you're going to traverse the water. So
they made it like an ocean. They saw it as an ocean and that they
then took is that righteous deeds as their ship, the ship that
they're going to use to cross the water and to traverse the water?
Shall now we're going to leave the last
conclusion for Mr. Hasson.
The caller
be on the line.
So we'll need two more sessions. The goal is to finish this before
Ramadan and Shonda and we'll start Hasson will be finishing the last
two sessions with you and be in the light data. And lots of other
cool data give us tofi. CHIARA but I don't mean to bless us to see
the world the way that the righteous Yeah, yeah, Hamid Rahim

solely to be for him Subotica to add and to protect us from the
evil of our own souls and from the whisperings of the shell to Allah

unto him and towards him. subhanho wa Taala in all of our different
states and to take over our affairs and to bless us in our
community, and to protect us and our children and our loved ones in
our community at home in our home in the OMA I'll say that I'm from
the southern lights and I'm alone we ask you to return us in unto
you in the very best of ways and do not take us to account for the
mistakes that we make the automotive I mean, we've opened up
all doors of goodness to us in this world in the Bozak in an
arcade or if you've played with AFI, or subtle lighters, even
Hamedan. While it was obvious enemies that are solid far too
heavy to handle or to Nibi
