Team robotica to all of you in sha Allah Tada we are going to

00:00:04 --> 00:00:09

continue on our journey endeavoring to strengthen our

00:00:09 --> 00:00:13

relationship with the Quran. And for this lesson today alone I'm

00:00:13 --> 00:00:16

going to depart slightly from the fer we'll come back to that

00:00:16 --> 00:00:21

tomorrow. And in sha Allah to Allah read more of the remaining

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

parts of the Kitab adapt elaborated Quran. Today I wanted

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

to take a go into a little bit more detail

00:00:30 --> 00:00:35

and talk about what was called a TIFF, Cyril II shoddy and elusive

00:00:35 --> 00:00:40

interpretation and in general, that you have

00:00:41 --> 00:00:44

that a tafsir that is based upon transmission

00:00:45 --> 00:00:50

Tafseer been met thought and then you have a tough set of Iraqi

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

which you could translate as a scholarly interpretation. And then

00:00:55 --> 00:00:58

you have what's called a tiff Ciudad de Shaadi, it's an elusive

00:00:58 --> 00:01:02

interpretation. It's an implied or indirect reference to an inner

00:01:02 --> 00:01:04

meaning or even a more esoteric meaning.

00:01:06 --> 00:01:09

And of course did the aroma have given conditions as we will see

00:01:10 --> 00:01:15

for a valid tiff cod shoddy and, and then on another hand, it's a

00:01:15 --> 00:01:19

type of Tafseer variety in a sense, but it tends to be that

00:01:19 --> 00:01:24

implied or indirect, so it could also be considered in that

00:01:24 --> 00:01:28

category and then inshallah Tada we will get back to you man was

00:01:28 --> 00:01:31

that his treatment of the hadith of our prophesy sent about

00:01:31 --> 00:01:36

manifested by the Quran Bira ye whoever explains the Quran or

00:01:36 --> 00:01:40

interprets the Quran with his opinion and so that the definition

00:01:41 --> 00:01:45

that they that they give the Tafseer Alicia is as follows. Who

00:01:45 --> 00:01:49

would we know I added Quran and Amanda read miles Robinho be

00:01:49 --> 00:01:55

Moqtada Shafia Todd Harley Davidson look, you know, Jim

00:01:55 --> 00:01:58

bainham, I've been a lot and Murat Vennela had and Murad.

00:01:59 --> 00:02:04

So it is to interpret verses of the Quran and Kadeem in a

00:02:04 --> 00:02:10

particular way, that is not restricted to its literal meaning,

00:02:11 --> 00:02:18

by virtue of a subtle ishara indication and illusion, that is,

00:02:18 --> 00:02:22

comes to the heart of the unbabel Sudak. The possessors of pure

00:02:22 --> 00:02:26

hearts who are upon a path of spiritual wayfaring. And that you

00:02:26 --> 00:02:30

can join our union, that between that particular understanding in

00:02:30 --> 00:02:36

between the outward meaning and so that this is not something that is

00:02:36 --> 00:02:40

new, this is something that took place from the time of the Prophet

00:02:40 --> 00:02:45

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And the following story is a story

00:02:45 --> 00:02:48

that takes place with an old woman, a hot dog, and sitting

00:02:48 --> 00:02:52

below him and a bass who was that tells you man, a Quran, the

00:02:52 --> 00:02:53

interpreter of the Quran,

00:02:55 --> 00:02:58

and some of the shoe, some of the elders that fought in the Battle

00:02:58 --> 00:03:02

of better. So in the story and saying, Omar, as we know, used to

00:03:02 --> 00:03:06

be very intelligent, and sometimes he would do certain things for

00:03:06 --> 00:03:10

other reasons that people weren't necessarily aware of. And in this

00:03:10 --> 00:03:15

case, he wanted people to know the great stature of cinema to liven

00:03:15 --> 00:03:19

up bass so that they could take from him and benefit from him. And

00:03:19 --> 00:03:23

so he comes into the presence. And he's with some of the chef of

00:03:23 --> 00:03:25

better some of the elders default in the battle brothers, some of

00:03:25 --> 00:03:30

the great companions. And some of them said, Why did they bring this

00:03:30 --> 00:03:33

young man because of the live bass was still young at the time? Why

00:03:33 --> 00:03:38

did they bring Why did he bring this young man here with us? And

00:03:40 --> 00:03:40

that

00:03:41 --> 00:03:48

it would come clear when cinnamon hottub that he asked, What do you

00:03:48 --> 00:03:53

all say about the verse either journal sort of line will fit what

00:03:53 --> 00:03:55

I ate and nurtured hold on the feed in the light of water.

00:03:57 --> 00:04:01

And sewers and Mossad. When Allah Tada says, When the victory of

00:04:01 --> 00:04:05

Allah and opening comes and you see people entering into the deen

00:04:05 --> 00:04:09

of Allah in hordes to the end of until he finished the sawed off a

00:04:09 --> 00:04:13

subject we haven't got a beaker will still fit and new Kana that

00:04:13 --> 00:04:19

so until the end of the setup, and then that they just said, the word

00:04:19 --> 00:04:22

meaning of the verse which is great. They said we've been

00:04:22 --> 00:04:25

commanded to praise Allah and to seek his forgiveness if we've been

00:04:25 --> 00:04:28

given victory, or if we receive an opening.

00:04:29 --> 00:04:34

And that some of them said Leonard three Oh Loomio called about no

00:04:34 --> 00:04:37

machine, or some of them's either, so we don't know or they didn't

00:04:37 --> 00:04:43

say anything. And then that St. Omar said to him and I'm vas, you

00:04:43 --> 00:04:47

have an abbess academic article is this is Is this what you say?

00:04:48 --> 00:04:52

And then even our best said no. Hard for magical What do you say a

00:04:52 --> 00:04:58

quote? What a judo Rasulullah sallallahu Sana, ie. This verse

00:04:59 --> 00:04:59

indicates the

00:05:00 --> 00:05:03

imminence of the passing of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa

00:05:03 --> 00:05:04

sallam

00:05:05 --> 00:05:10

and he says them hola hola hola either Janos Allah will fit that's

00:05:10 --> 00:05:15

Maccha for Zakka Allah Mota Jack, Allah was letting the prophesy Sam

00:05:15 --> 00:05:21

know that when the Fatah of Mecca happens and I eat that these

00:05:21 --> 00:05:26

verses referring to the Fatah Mecca, the opening of Mecca, he

00:05:26 --> 00:05:31

said then this is the sign of your that your appointed term is near

00:05:31 --> 00:05:35

the sub that we have ended up Vika will still fit who? So glorify the

00:05:35 --> 00:05:39

Praises of your Lord in Hokkaido, Baba indeed that he is ever fit,

00:05:39 --> 00:05:45

forgiving. And then Omar says, Madam woman ilimitado I only know

00:05:45 --> 00:05:49

what you know about this is what I know about this verse. And it's

00:05:49 --> 00:05:54

not denying the outward meaning. But what this story teaches us is

00:05:54 --> 00:05:59

that the likes of Ivanov VAs had another understanding. The outward

00:05:59 --> 00:06:03

meaning is there, but he understand something deeper. He

00:06:03 --> 00:06:08

understood that an E Shada, something that was indicated by

00:06:08 --> 00:06:11

the verse that not everyone else would necessarily pick up on. It

00:06:11 --> 00:06:15

would require someone who is adept in interpretation of the Quran.

00:06:16 --> 00:06:20

And of course, could that had a pure heart to receive meanings.

00:06:21 --> 00:06:25

And we should keep in mind that when Allah to Allah says law Yama,

00:06:25 --> 00:06:29

so Eldon molto Harun is that only those who are pure will touch it

00:06:30 --> 00:06:34

outwards, that relates to holding the most half in a state of would

00:06:34 --> 00:06:37

do, and really touching the meanings with your heart,

00:06:38 --> 00:06:42

touching the meanings with your heart, the prerequisite of that is

00:06:42 --> 00:06:44

that you'd be in a state of purity, is that your heartbeat

00:06:44 --> 00:06:51

pure to have access to those meanings. And so this is a type of

00:06:51 --> 00:06:56

tafsir that existed, even in the earlier period. And the bad rap

00:06:56 --> 00:07:01

that the tafseer the shy sometimes has gotten is because of people's

00:07:01 --> 00:07:06

misunderstandings, where people think that when they point to this

00:07:06 --> 00:07:11

meaning, this inner meaning or this elusive interpretation, that

00:07:11 --> 00:07:14

somehow it conflicts with the outward meaning. And as we will

00:07:14 --> 00:07:18

see, this is one of the prerequisites that indeed does not

00:07:18 --> 00:07:22

conflict with the outward meaning. And the group called the volcania.

00:07:22 --> 00:07:27

The bottom knights, the way they went astray, is where they said is

00:07:27 --> 00:07:31

that the outward meaning wasn't intended to begin with. And they

00:07:31 --> 00:07:35

believe the inward meaning was the only meaning and the primary

00:07:35 --> 00:07:39

meaning the primary meaning and the only meaning. And according to

00:07:39 --> 00:07:42

one of the interpretations of the Hadith that we mentioned yesterday

00:07:42 --> 00:07:47

about the Quran having a lot and Ivatan, an outward dimension, an

00:07:47 --> 00:07:52

inward dimension had a limit, and a multilateral or mandala or a

00:07:52 --> 00:07:55

rising point or a vantage point.

00:07:56 --> 00:08:01

According to some interpretations, some of these one of these these,

00:08:01 --> 00:08:05

in some ways could refer to and open up the door for this type of

00:08:06 --> 00:08:08

interpretation of Allah subhanaw taala his book.

00:08:09 --> 00:08:10

And so

00:08:11 --> 00:08:18

the scholars then mention four conditions for the acceptance of a

00:08:18 --> 00:08:23

tiff to a shot. So for an elusive interpretation to be valid, there

00:08:23 --> 00:08:27

must be four conditions. And he says, The first is Elia 10, alpha

00:08:27 --> 00:08:32

male Hartman mountain and northern el Karim. And so there is no

00:08:32 --> 00:08:38

disagreement with the plain meaning of the verse. Okay, so

00:08:38 --> 00:08:43

there's no it doesn't contradict the meaning. Okay, and so that,

00:08:43 --> 00:08:47

for instance, if someone would understand from the words of ALLAH

00:08:47 --> 00:08:53

to Allah, what will Rebekah have yet to actually attain? Okay, that

00:08:53 --> 00:08:57

worship your Lord, until certainty comes to you. So then someone

00:08:57 --> 00:09:03

would say that no, okay, once that hard to hear is the heart of a

00:09:03 --> 00:09:06

liar. Once I attain, attain certainty, I no longer have to

00:09:06 --> 00:09:10

worship, it was the builder, right? That we completely reject

00:09:10 --> 00:09:14

that, because that goes against the sunnah of our problems I said,

00:09:14 --> 00:09:17

that goes against what we believe in the Sharia. And what we are

00:09:17 --> 00:09:21

taught to believe by way of creed is that our Prophet sallallahu

00:09:21 --> 00:09:25

Sallam that followed the shooting until the day he met his Lord, and

00:09:25 --> 00:09:28

this is an obligation upon everyone. It's not a matter of

00:09:28 --> 00:09:32

worshipping until you reach a certain stage and receive an open

00:09:32 --> 00:09:34

and then you can stop but I wouldn't be That's heresy to

00:09:34 --> 00:09:38

believe that we believe you have to worship Allah had to tickle

00:09:38 --> 00:09:44

your pain until certainty comes to you ie death. You have to worship

00:09:44 --> 00:09:48

till death comes to you. So if you would, that describe in an

00:09:48 --> 00:09:53

unexplained search into here as an opening, that would be incorrect.

00:09:53 --> 00:09:58

If you mean by that, that then you stop. Okay. And that of course, we

00:09:58 --> 00:09:59

know that if you do worse

00:10:00 --> 00:10:04

job and you worship sincerely, you might receive an opening, and you

00:10:04 --> 00:10:08

might become from the Olia hat or herba, and become beloved to Allah

00:10:08 --> 00:10:11

Tada. But at that point, it doesn't mean that you leave your

00:10:11 --> 00:10:14

worship, it doesn't mean you leave everything you did to get up that

00:10:14 --> 00:10:20

you have to keep that until you die. So this is an example of an

00:10:20 --> 00:10:24

invalid Tafseer shot, if you mean by that, that you're just

00:10:24 --> 00:10:27

worshiping in order to attain an opening, and then you no longer

00:10:27 --> 00:10:33

have to worship. So the first says is that it not be incongruent with

00:10:33 --> 00:10:38

the outward meaning. And the second condition is Allah, you

00:10:38 --> 00:10:42

know, what I'd want to do, then a lot, you don't claim that the

00:10:42 --> 00:10:46

inner meaning the elusive interpretation, is the only

00:10:46 --> 00:10:51

intended meaning of the verse know, that you recognize is that

00:10:51 --> 00:10:56

verses have a multitude of meanings, they have different ways

00:10:56 --> 00:10:59

of understanding some there's dimensions of meanings, and the

00:10:59 --> 00:11:03

outward has an outward meaning and it has to align with the inward

00:11:03 --> 00:11:06

meaning. And then the inward meaning has an inward meaning,

00:11:06 --> 00:11:09

however, that you don't claim that the inward meaning is the only

00:11:09 --> 00:11:14

meaning. And the third is that Allah ukoln

00:11:15 --> 00:11:22

wheeling by Eden siphon, and so is that, that it not that the meaning

00:11:23 --> 00:11:27

of what it is that you're interpreting is sound in and of

00:11:27 --> 00:11:32

itself. So it can't just be some Farfetch meaning that is not

00:11:32 --> 00:11:34

sound. So for instance,

00:11:35 --> 00:11:38

that when Allah to Allah says and sorts of ankle boots, or when

00:11:38 --> 00:11:45

Allah llama and mercy Nene indeed that Allah is with Lamin Musa

00:11:45 --> 00:11:50

halacha that's on the mat the with those who show sand people of

00:11:50 --> 00:11:55

excellence. And so that if someone tried to make the word lemma I fit

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

in the MALDI, like lemma means to gleam. So in Allaha Lemma and

00:12:00 --> 00:12:06

merci Nein, that's an invalid interpretation. Because here, that

00:12:06 --> 00:12:14

lemma is a not a word that is transitive, it can't have a method

00:12:14 --> 00:12:19

B, it means just to simply gleam. So that's an incorrect usage. So

00:12:19 --> 00:12:24

at that lamb, there cannot be a verb. That's a part of like lemma,

00:12:24 --> 00:12:28

from the verb, it has to be a particle llama on merci Nein.

00:12:29 --> 00:12:32

Okay, and then the fourth condition condition

00:12:33 --> 00:12:38

is Hola, Yokohama and SHINee. Au Alkalyn. And so there can't be

00:12:39 --> 00:12:46

anything in the Shinya or anything according to that rational

00:12:46 --> 00:12:50

thinking that conflicts with it. So if any interpretation that's

00:12:50 --> 00:12:54

that's associated conflicts with the Sharia, are conflicts with the

00:12:54 --> 00:12:59

AKA, then it can't be a valid interpretation. And I mentioned

00:12:59 --> 00:13:03

that there's four, but then they sometimes went to a fifth, and you

00:13:03 --> 00:13:08

go no Shahad, Cherie, you are you do is that there are that other

00:13:10 --> 00:13:15

that foundations, foundational meanings in the sacred law, that

00:13:15 --> 00:13:19

also point to a similar meaning. And that goes kind of goes hand in

00:13:19 --> 00:13:26

hand with the one that came before it. So, with those conditions,

00:13:26 --> 00:13:31

though, you can have an acceptable interpretation of Allah subhanaw

00:13:31 --> 00:13:35

nos book of a meaning that points have a meaning that is pointed to

00:13:35 --> 00:13:38

have a meaning that is indicated is a Tafseer a shoddy is an

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

elusive interpretation. And there are from the Tafseer, literature,

00:13:43 --> 00:13:48

certain tafseer that have these types of meanings in them, for

00:13:48 --> 00:13:53

instance, the tafsir to Lucy is one of them. tafsir of a man a

00:13:53 --> 00:13:58

salami is one of them, that Tafseer of Imam a to study is

00:13:58 --> 00:14:02

another one as a Tafseer of Imam and push at this point after the

00:14:02 --> 00:14:07

shout out. So, there are different to fasciae that they mentioned

00:14:07 --> 00:14:12

that contain these meanings. And then we will just mentioned a few

00:14:12 --> 00:14:13

examples here.

00:14:18 --> 00:14:26

No, so for instance, in no luck or our own Kadeem, and that indeed

00:14:26 --> 00:14:32

that it is a noble Quran, one of the righteous said about this is

00:14:32 --> 00:14:35

that what is the meaning of cudham here? So normally we think of it

00:14:35 --> 00:14:39

as the Noble Quran, which is definitely a valid meaning. For a

00:14:39 --> 00:14:44

job this scholar said, Vienna Magna Carta, Makoto ki nang Katha

00:14:44 --> 00:14:46

tema, Yachty minute Allume

00:14:47 --> 00:14:51

mean that the Quran is also kidding, in terms of all of the

00:14:51 --> 00:14:55

different knowledge that it gives when you approach it and you

00:14:55 --> 00:14:56

reflect upon it.

00:14:57 --> 00:14:57

Okay.

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

And then

00:15:00 --> 00:15:04

As others mentioned, this is from your alma mater Abdullah bin

00:15:04 --> 00:15:08

hydrocele hace in relation to the words of ALLAH Kulu che in

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

Harlequin Illa wotja Everything is perishing. collusion, Halak,

00:15:15 --> 00:15:18

everything is perishing Illa wotja And the primary meaning is that

00:15:18 --> 00:15:25

except His Countenance subhanho wa Taala everything is perishing. And

00:15:25 --> 00:15:31

then another meaning of the words here is not transit not the

00:15:31 --> 00:15:35

meaning that normally we think of it as the countenance of watchful

00:15:35 --> 00:15:42

law. But watch could also refer to a thing an aspect of the thing. So

00:15:42 --> 00:15:46

he says her into cooler shell haha Jehanne, watch United Hakoda watch

00:15:46 --> 00:15:52

whenever the Hulk everything has a direction, it's directed towards

00:15:52 --> 00:15:56

Allah and directed towards creation. He said that the

00:15:56 --> 00:16:01

direction of that thing that is towards creation is definitely

00:16:01 --> 00:16:06

perishing. Right, he says is that that which is directed towards

00:16:06 --> 00:16:08

Allah remains so when you do a good deed,

00:16:10 --> 00:16:15

and the aspect of that good deed, that stems from your sincerity,

00:16:16 --> 00:16:22

even though that good deed goes, what remains is that sincerity of

00:16:22 --> 00:16:27

that good deed ie the reward that you get for it after because it

00:16:27 --> 00:16:29

was for the sake of Allah to Allah, collusion, haidakhan

00:16:29 --> 00:16:35

Illawarra, other ie the direction of that thing towards Allah

00:16:35 --> 00:16:40

subhanaw taala ie Allah subhanaw taala accepting that from you, and

00:16:40 --> 00:16:41

preserving that for you.

00:16:43 --> 00:16:46

And then another example, that is from in the words of ALLAH to

00:16:46 --> 00:16:51

Allah, with Cora Bucha is in the seat. And you translate as

00:16:51 --> 00:16:53

remember your Lord, when you forget.

00:16:55 --> 00:16:59

And one meaning of that is is the obvious meaning that if you fall

00:16:59 --> 00:17:01

into sin, if you just notice, remember Allah

00:17:02 --> 00:17:06

another meaning of that is a and Nikka II then the seats massive

00:17:06 --> 00:17:10

auto book, the character of bugged Aurora 10 Is the law man mineral

00:17:10 --> 00:17:15

88 will surely Elissa another minute that is is what caught up

00:17:15 --> 00:17:21

Bucha II then a seat and remember your Lord when you have forgotten

00:17:23 --> 00:17:27

so in other words, true remembrance comes when you

00:17:27 --> 00:17:29

forgotten everything else.

00:17:30 --> 00:17:33

And so you're not pulled by the Siwa everything other than Allah

00:17:34 --> 00:17:37

towards it, where your heart is in the state of remembrance of Allah

00:17:37 --> 00:17:40

Tada. So that's a higher meaning what caught up Bucha II then a

00:17:40 --> 00:17:45

seat from your Lord, you're really remembering your Lord, when you

00:17:45 --> 00:17:46

forgotten all else.

00:17:48 --> 00:17:53

And similar is is religion in surah Taha well Kima salata, Lee

00:17:53 --> 00:17:57

decree and establish the prayer for my remembrance.

00:17:58 --> 00:18:02

And so here you could translate that you could refer to leave

00:18:02 --> 00:18:08

Vickery so that you can remember me, Vic Edie, the Kurdish

00:18:08 --> 00:18:13

remembrance Edie my remembrance, but you could also

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

that

00:18:15 --> 00:18:21

that say, Well Khaimah salata, Lee Dickey D and establish the prayer

00:18:21 --> 00:18:25

for my remembrance, ie my remembrance of you.

00:18:26 --> 00:18:30

So to be mentioned by Allah is higher than being us mentioning

00:18:30 --> 00:18:35

him, and we should still mention him, but that meaning as possible,

00:18:35 --> 00:18:39

and Allah says and in the prophesy centum Yanni narrates in a hadith

00:18:39 --> 00:18:44

glitzy Mundaka if enough Sedaka if enough, see, whoever mentions me

00:18:44 --> 00:18:49

in his self, I will mention him or haka, and there are other examples

00:18:49 --> 00:18:53

that they give. And if an ambassador was known to

00:18:54 --> 00:18:59

also interpret the verse and sort of the shout out to Kaluga, Kathy

00:18:59 --> 00:19:03

saggi Dean, and you're moving about in the loins of those

00:19:03 --> 00:19:07

prostrating, there is an outward meaning dimension to that. But

00:19:07 --> 00:19:11

then, the inner meaning there is that he took it as a proof of the

00:19:11 --> 00:19:15

purity of the prophesy CEMs lineage. The fact that you moved

00:19:15 --> 00:19:20

about in the loins of saggi. Dean, they were prostrate I II, model

00:19:20 --> 00:19:24

theists, who worshiped Allah in the most pure of all lineages,

00:19:24 --> 00:19:28

back to that Adam idea salatu salam. So these are just examples

00:19:28 --> 00:19:33

and there are many more there could be given. But the key is

00:19:33 --> 00:19:36

here is that this is a part of our tradition and there's conditions

00:19:36 --> 00:19:40

and the way that we access the inward in our deen is from the

00:19:40 --> 00:19:46

outward, we access the inward from the outward and this is why some

00:19:46 --> 00:19:50

of them say that the medulla or the product, the rising point

00:19:50 --> 00:19:54

which indicates inspiration or the mandala, which indicates a vantage

00:19:54 --> 00:19:59

point, is from the vantage point of the outward. Do we have access

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

to the inward

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

And so anything that contradicts the outward aspects of our deen

00:20:04 --> 00:20:08

has to be rejected. But if we put the outward in its place and

00:20:08 --> 00:20:13

someone strives through worship and reflection and ALLAH inspires

00:20:13 --> 00:20:17

someone within an additional meaning. This is something that

00:20:17 --> 00:20:19

the early might have accepted and with the conditions that were

00:20:19 --> 00:20:22

mentioned, may Allah subhanaw taala give us Tofik and give us

00:20:22 --> 00:20:26

openings in his book your automata Amin and less is to finish Ramadan

00:20:26 --> 00:20:30

strongly in the very best of ways and give us Tofik in all of our

00:20:30 --> 00:20:33

affairs will sell a lot as in Mohammed and iPod so be Salam, Al

00:20:33 --> 00:20:34

Hamdulillah
