Let's return data homerun mountain level for whom, you know
that you might want a people whose ancestors were not warned. So
they're heedless.
So here that this first starts with the tools.
And so, is that Allah subhanaw taala. Is that given the Quran to
the Prophet summarised sentence and it is, of course, Revelation.
And the purpose of that is so that our Prophet saw the license would
warn of people whose ancestors were not warned. And so that we
know that Allah Subhana Allah has sent the prophet as both a Novia
and a Bashir. He is a warner and he is also a giver of glad
tidings. And again, similar to that what we spoke about last
time, Allah Tada is Al Aziz and he has a Rahim depending upon how we
respond to the message will depending upon what it is that we
face, and so that if we respond to the message with acceptance, and
that we hasten to put into practice, is that we will
experience the Mercy of Allah subhana wa Tada, and that it will
be a be shot, it will be a great God tidings for us. And the
opposite is also the case, if someone obstinate and refuses to
accept the truth is that they will face one of the rigorous Names of
Allah subhanaw taala. And that then they will relate to the
Prophet solo bison insofar as that he is another year that he is a
warner. So love it.
And so Leetonia, in order that you may warn, and there are other
verses as well that include this idea of warning, Allah to assess
and sources such that the tone did not come and attack them in the
public, in order that you may warn eight people who have not had a
warner that like you that who have not had a water that come before.
Before you. Well, my eldest son, lay in public I mean, Alia, and
we've not seen to them before you, a warner. So there's other words,
there's other times in the Quran that this word warning, and this
idea of warning comes in? And really, what is this? What is it?
What does it mean to be in here? What is this process of Indar,
I've given a warning, but if Bhagavata arqiva And
it's to inform someone about something very painful that was
going to happen in the future, some type of that harm that is
going to come.
And really do think of that, even in the conversation and being and
via, it is also a mercy. Because if someone is trying to ward off
harm from you wrote off pain from you, that's there's a mercy in
that. And some of the toughest to go into great detail of looking
when Allah says return data that you might warm.
They say that what is included in that particle in that verb is a
lot of things that are implicitly indicated that are implicit in
that expression.
And so for instance, they say that if I were to give you money, and
say that I am giving you this money so that you can perform
Pudge.
What do I really mean by that? Well, here's money, now you're
able to go to hutch, but I'm also really indicating by that, okay,
that you need to get your pictures in the modern day and that you
need to get your visa, and you need to make your provisions you
need to get your flights, you need to figure out which group that
you're going with, you need to learn the fifth house, you need to
do everything that you need to prepare for the HUD go on it,
fulfill it completely, so that you can actually that fulfill what it
is that I gave you money for in the first place.
So there's a lot including just to be told there. Yes, in the end,
for those that don't accept it in as a warning of something that is
going to happen in the future that is going to be bad for those
people. But it also includes all of these other things that relate
to conveying the deen so the topic of our Prophet slicin interview a
warner what is implicit behind that is he's doing all of these
other things to convey the dean
in other words, is that he's still alive center was commanded to call
to the Presence of Allah soprano Tada bit hokhmah Well, Mo edited
Hasina will judge in German humility Assam he was commanded to
cultural law with wisdom and good admonition into that converse with
them in the best of ways. So the life sentence all of those
included that in this idea
of the warning, because these are all that these are, these are
parts of the greater whole, the total data coma, not data
alone. And specifically that here is related to learning. And people
who looked at us says, whose ancestors were not warned. And
there's actually a lot of debate about this map, what it really
means we're going to just focus on a single mean, and that friends,
as such that those ancestors were not warmed. And so who is the
poem, who are these people that are being referred to is that this
relates to the other person for most because the Prophet was that
sent first and foremost to them, because he was out of and the vast
majority of people around him were out of, but then by extension,
because he was a universal Prophet, all people. So the poem
here relates to the Arabs, but also that everyone else, they
don't need a poem and not wonder about whose ancestors were not
warned. In so this is, was what refers to what is called Phaedra.
Now filter out when we talked about the natural disposition of
the human being was called a filter. And that a filter is a gap
in messengers, okay? And so the zemana, etc, is the gaps between
that certain messengers. And so in relation to the, to the other. It
was the gap from the time of sin Ismail to the Prophet Muhammad,
someone that idea who serve you, in relation to other people's it
was the gap, for instance, between that Satan and Isa until the
Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu sallam. So we know that our
Prophet was a universal Prophet, so once he was sent is that it is
now binding upon everyone who reaches them, that that would send
them homosapiens, to believe in him to follow his teachings. And
so that gap of fetida will differ, according to where that someone
was geographically located on the earth. And so that he will differ
according to who was their last prophet that was sent to them. So
there'll be different that and there'll be a different amount of
time for different peoples, but for the hour that it gets back to
sickness, right, in mountain data, that
whose ancestors were not warned. And then we see what is the
results, when people have not received that access to prophetic
truth? What is the result? But hold off, you know, so therapy,
this, and this is what happens, you can only imagine what life
would be like, without the teachings of our Prophet
sallallahu. In fact, you can't imagine
that how dismal that life would be, how terrible things will be.
That it actually is unimaginable to think about how horrible things
would be, were we not to have the teachings of our Prophet, someone
that
our state would be one half of that. A state of complete
heedlessness.
And the scholars say that lovella is a set home yeah, totally in sir
menthyl, to have fully what
it is a state of forgetfulness that overtakes the human being, as
a result of lack of wakefulness.
And the half fold, which may be here, you could say
it's this process of preparedness, and
of that being ready to do the things that need to be done.
In other words, is that as a result is that for them?
Everything is the same? Their hearts is not alive, the heart is
that not move to do something that good, their heart does not move,
to think about the truth or reflect upon the truth. And that
this trait of luck law goes hand in hand.
Increasingly, as we get closer and closer to the end of time, and we
move, even within the realm of the believers from this quality, more
quantity and less quality, is that this is the state that overtakes
the heart. In other words, is that to the degree that we're in a
state of love Allah is to the degree that we will lack true
quality as a believer.
And on the contrary to the degree that we are wakeful, and that we
are aware and that we are conscious, and that we are that
doing everything that we do with intention will be to the degree
that we are that distant from this ever so reprehensible
Pray. But this is the results. For whom if you don't, if we do not
have prophetic guidance, people will remain in a state of complete
heedlessness. And once you open up the door for heedlessness, that
you could speak a lot in great detail about what that would cause
you to do in relation to your behavior. And in fact, that all
acts of disobedience all mistakes that we make, ultimately get back
to heat business. If you are aware, how could you do something
that is wrong? That if it wasn't that you fell into a deep state of
heedlessness? How could you sit? Recognizing that Allah Allah sees
you at all times, is that this is one of the that root diseases of
the heart that absolutely must be treated. And that one of the great
blessings of the Prophetic teachings is that it treats this
that epidemic disease of a flat heedlessness. Now, this also
applies to the inheritors of the Prophet sallallaahu Selim, that
want to remind the ummah of the Prophet, and those in his time, or
her time, is at the importance of the Prophetic teachings. And just
as you have that these gaps in the sense of the Prophets and
Messengers is that you also have these gaps in relation to the
righteous amongst the prophets.
And so there are times where that there people have more access to
scholars in righteous people than others. And they're particular to
get particular geographical locations, where at one juncture
in history, there's not much access and then increasingly,
they'll have more and more access. And this is the way that things
work. And that the same thing is said to them in the sense is that
any one that exists in any particular location, we're about
to be representatives of the prophesy center, who have embodied
his teachings, and in teaching them is that people will remain
heedlessness. And this is why they say, if you want to find if you
want to determine rather than life of a community, you ask yourself
two simple questions. Are there any gatherings of knowledge in
that place? And are there any gatherings of remembrance are
people making dhikr and are people learning and if you go to a place
and you find that there are no gatherings of knowledge, and no
gatherings or remembrance, it's a sign that that city or that
community, or that village or town is dead.
And if that town is dead, it doesn't mean that there you can't
find a righteous person in that place, you might, but it will be
dead. And that what will usually happen when that there are a lack
of gatherings, like the ones mentioned, is that either business
will overtake the people.
Whereas if you go to a place and you find that there's actually a
lot of gatherings of knowledge, a lot of gatherings of remembrance,
it's a sign that it is alive.
And I remember that feeling. As I was visiting Syria, before the
war, in the year 2008. On a trip, now, one of the now we trips, the
doctor overseas to do to come to chemo, I was there. And we started
in Qatar, and Syria. And we eventually made our way down to
Damascus. And it was such an amazing feeling.
Just how many gatherings are taking place in one city, and of
course, Damascus is big. But how many gatherings were taking place
on the same day, at the same time, and literally, from morning to
evening, seven days a week, there are multiple gatherings of
remembrance and learning. And when you step into that environment,
without you even knowing what is taking place, you feel your heart
alive. You feel your heart alive. And you see after assault and
libido and the loss that you just prayed and you might have been
there for another purpose. And all of a sudden people are that this
funneling in, to attend my classes is going to take place between
Milgram and Isha, that does something to you, it brings your
heart to life. But the key here is without gatherings, there is no
way for us to be reminded, there's no way for us to that attain what
it is that the Dean has that commanded us to attain. And so
this is something that we hope to see. And that the places that we
live, we are in the United States of America and wherever everyone
else is tuning in from is that we want them to be gatherings. We
want them to be galleries of remembrance, and unfortunately,
we're still at a stage where we actually have to convince people,
maybe not so much for knowledge, but gatherings of remembrance,
definitely, that this is something that we should even be doing
And we tend to forget the importance of these.
In these modalities are the ways whereby which the prophetic
inheritance of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is
transmitted, and disseminated, it's done by way of the
gatherings, yes, that it also is done by way of taking the
companionship of righteous men and women, and seeing them in their
everyday life. And you could benefit from them immensely
outside of a formal setting of a gathering. But these, one of the,
one of the foundational ways that this is transmitted is through
these gardens. And this is why again, put this day when we speak
of in the positive sense of traditional Islam, in the
traditional Muslim world, the remnants of which still are very
much alive, wherever you go in the Western world, that you will find
this dark gatherings that take place at different times. And this
is, again, something that we hope to see in a culture that we hope
develops, where every Muslim, every Muslim, now we're not
talking about a scholar we're talking about every Muslim should
attend a gathering of knowledge and a gathering of remembrance
once a week, every muscle.
And that is a very basic level. And everyone, some as well must
have teachers, at least one that they can ask their questions to
when an issue arises that they don't know the answer for. That is
a religious requirement. We're not talking about now, what is better
or even best? That is a religious requirement, that we have
trustworthy people who have learned their Deen that can
clarify that to us our questions, and give us good answers. And so
that we can worship Allah to Allah upon insight, that we can conduct
our affairs upon insight, and to make sure what it is that we're
doing that whatever it is that we do, we are well informed, and
we're not doing something that goes against our deen.
But all of this is in all of these meanings are in this verse. They
totally their home and mountains, Lucky noon, that you might warn a
people
whose ancestors were not warned, so they're heedless,
because this is what happens is that when we leave that people to
be as they are, is that they will naturally because by virtue of
entropy, because it applies to human beings as well, that move
towards a state of heedlessness. This is the way human beings are,
they will naturally move towards a state of heedlessness, just as if
you have hot water or very cold water, it will move towards room
temperature water is that you have a that center. If you don't clean
it, we all know very well here if you don't clean things regularly,
what happens, they will get very dirty. And I heard that cup start
to mold and all these other types of things very quickly. In other
words, if you don't put energy in quickly, to combat entropy, the
natural state is to be in disarray. The natural state of the
knifes is to be in disarray to be in a state of love not. And this
is why we have to open up our heart to Prophetic teachings. And
this is why it's such a blessing to have people that actually warn
us.
And people get very uncomfortable with this type of language. But
the very fact that they're uncomfortable is even a bigger
problem. Because they're not going to be in a state where they're
even going to benefit when someone is actually that guiding them or
advising them in a way that they actually shouldn't be.
So it's very simple. Without the Prophetic teachings, people will
remain in a state of heedlessness and know Allah subhanaw taala. In
verse seven, he says, Look what happened to me He for whom
learned?
The word has indeed come due for our proof true against most of
them, for they do not believe. Look what happened.
And
the meaning of this verse is one of the meanings is the poet here
is referring to the other times in the Quran where a lot of medical
data says, for instance, the sorts of such stuff what I can hack the
code on the Nealon and Johanna minion Jannetty onesies, Ronnie is
that what happens when people after mean told the truth,
obstinately refuse to accept it and deny it? Is that what's going
to happen is that this word is going to come true. What word is
it? When Allah Allah says that indeed that I shall fill Johanna
from human beings in jinn.
together, Miss Allah Tada Ascena with IVF.
And this is the necessary state, for a person who dies in a state
of disbelief. After having had the Dawa reached him and refuses to
accept, we have so much honor to protect us and to preserve us. And
this type of understanding, again, a lot of people in the modern
world feel very uncomfortable talking about these things. But we
have to get beyond that feeling of discomfort. This is not about me,
this is not about you, this is about truth. And this is about the
way that Allah to Allah has chosen things to be,
we do not have what it is that we desire, em that in seven months,
and then will the human being have all of what he wants or desires.
It's not about what we want. And Allah to Allah has decreed that
things are going to be a certain way. And the only thing that we
can do in relation to that decree is to accept and to submit, and to
do what it is that we know, that we should do to save our own
necks, and to help as many other people as possible. And that's all
we can do.
And that before this is a response is one of humility is one of
brokenness. You know, one of taking heat, that this is Huck.
And we know that us that we are taught to say is that, and my dad
became more humble, don't talk everything or proper came with
this truth. When the Ginetta Huck in Paradise is true, when another
puck and the fire is true, or in the San Diego River Valley.
And that the hour is coming, there is no doubt in it will love you
both men feel called War and Allah will resurrect all people in their
grave from their graves. And this is, again, that we have to respond
to this with the response of a nun, that kind of Hopko Allah,
the word has indeed come due for our prove true against most of
them.
This is the state. And even if you look, even to this day, even
though the number of Muslims has doubled, pretty much percentage
wise, if you compare the turn of the 14th, to some extent, hurry to
the turn of the 15th to Samick century, we jumped from roughly
12% to about 25%, it roughly doubled. But still, that if you
compare it to the majority of people that live on the face of
this earth, only warning for is listen.
And so part of this is to come to terms with reality and how it
really is, we shouldn't have an unshakable faith such that were we
the only believer on the face of this earth, we wouldn't waver and
our faith is not going to come complete until that's how we are.
And that we have to that reach that level of spiritual and
religious maturity, where we know truth for what truth is. And then
we find the pupil of truth, as opposed to than determining what
truth is by men and women, other people.
If that is our way, that oftentimes that we will fall short
in the process, and mix up and conflate the two.
And once we find the truth, so part of maturity really is that we
dedicate ourselves to it. And then we disassociate ourselves from
other people in relation to their own particular search of truth or
belief in what truth is.
Now, it's very easy to say, very difficult to actually do. Because
when we're exposed to people, especially people that speak in
very crafty ways, and are trained in almost a magical type way, to
that delude other people, and to frame a certain way of speaking
about something in such a powerful way that they draw people into
their world very easily as that this is something we have to be
aware of. And the rhetoric of the modern world, no doubt from a
Muslim perspective, the closer and closer that we get to the end of
time, will also be de Jhalak in that sense. And there will be a
lot of illusions, that inward is in deception. There'll be a lot of
deception in what people are saying. And this is one of the
traits of the end of the end of time is that there will be Fianna
that there will be deception. And so
that lack of direct selling info lie you know, and that this poll
here, as we mentioned, is that a lot of is what he said and other
questions in the Quran about the punishment for people who deny and
some of them say that it also relates to the Quran. In other
words, as we've been
And before is that just as people's response to the messenger
is indicative of who you are as a person.
Likewise the Quran, it is a to indica or I like it is approved
for you or it is approved against you.
And this is why is that this has to be our approach to the pattern
as it when we go to it, that we look at our own selves to what
degree Am I thinking chronically? To what degree Am I behaving
chronically? To what degree is my heart acting chronically, in other
words, all of the teachings of the Quran that pertain to belief that
pertain to different things that we do out with or pertain to that
states of heart and how we should be internally, is it to what
degree does that my behavior and everything that was mentioned
beliefs, and so forth correspond to the book of Allah data.
And if there was some way to measure that is that we would find
some people, it's 2%. Other people, it's 4%. Some people, it's
10%. Other people, it's 15%. But again, the further that we get
from the teachings of the prophets, I send the lower the
percentage. And this is something that simultaneously we have to
recognize where we're at, but also help people move forward to
increase. And so it gets a bit tricky, because there is no doubt
a serious problem in continuing to water down the religion. Because
what happens in the next generation, what happens in the
generation after that, and personally, as someone who was a
Protestant Christian growing up and then became Muslim, I'm not
interested in a Protestant version of Islam. That is very
uninteresting to me, a watered down version of the truth, know
that what brought me to Assam was believing that this is true, and
that this is hack. And at the level of belief, at the level of
practice. I remember from the bounty of Allah, Allah, when I
found out that there all of the individual rulings and a setup
that we had, there was a shootout, that there was a lot, that was
something that attracted me to this religion. Whereas people
oftentimes speak of it as Oh, there's so many rules, oh, I have
to do this, I have to do that. That was something actually
attracted me. Because to me, that's a manifestation of
guidance. And as someone who believed in God before I
converted,
the disconnect for me was not having a law that would regulate
my behavior, because there was a disconnect between my belief in
the things that I was doing outwardly. But when you have a
law, you can have guidance manifest at every level of your
being. And in all of your interactions in all of your
different states. What a blessing the Sharia is an immense blessing
of our Prophet. So it's an immense blessing from Allah subhanho wa
taala, is what we need to embrace it, and to love it, and to
implement in our lives. And by doing so that it will that Drosera
to Allah subhana wa Tada Hakoda and excelling for whom you knew.
And so a home that you may know is that they will have faith. If they
refuse to accept these teachings, there will be a lack of faith. And
the reality of these people that lie we know a lot to either is
going to give us a way of thinking about this. And even on this
difference opinion, is that this is that part of the rhetoric of
the Quran, is that we can picture that what is the metaphor for the
parable for people who don't believe and how can we actually
visualize what that really is. So then in verse number eight, a
legit legit Allah says, in the Jannah of God not being a Latin,
for here, it is an army for whom we're home,
to either solo or Alfia. We have yokes on their necks, reaching
their chins, so that their heads are raised
in a giant IKEA knocking Aladdin. So there are some scholars that
say that this will actually be the state of the disbelievers and the
next world. And so that there is a reality to this, that others say
that it relates to a specific incident
where Allah subhanaw taala that protected the Prophet sallallahu
Centre's from people that were trying to harm him.
But it first and foremost is a metaphor for the reality of people
of disbelief is that they're incapacitated aren't able to do
anything ultimately, that as a result of their disbelief, and
this is why that we're also talking about Quran line Johanna
Bucha. Hello, Veronica.
Foot often do not deceive you, the movie about of people of disbelief
amongst the different places on earth. So we shouldn't ever be
deceived by that just because someone has some type of material
or technological prowess, and the things that they're able to do and
so forth and so on, is that the more that you route yourself in a
Quranic worldview, the more that you will realize is that there's
so much deception that lives in so many of the things that people are
able to do here on Earth, we need to remind ourselves that power
ultimately belongs to Allah, Allah. So we have quite yolks on
their necks, reaching their chins. And one of the if you want to
visually visualize this
is that you can imagine that something like the way that would
be like an ox, that going around the neck of an ox, and that it's
such that it's pushing the chin up, and you can't put the chin
down. And then on top of that, is that the hands are chained.
And so that when this is obviously a very uncomfortable position, and
it's a type of torture, is it as a result, for whom, for whom is that
their heads are raised, and some of them say is that this is
specifically mentioned, because is that arrogant people are known to
kind of keep their heads up. And so now that as a result, as a type
of punishment, is that they're not able to do what is that they
should actually be doing, which is we're people that should know
ourselves before a larger than gerada. But this is a form of
punishment for them. Now that what is really meant by this is, is
that they are unable to do anything as a result of their
disbelief, but also is that this state that they're in is
representative, just as they end up themselves never inclined
towards or turning towards the truth, never directed their gaze
towards it. This is likewise the requisites that punishment that
that happens to them. So they will physically be in that state where
they're not able to do what they wanted, were able to do that they
refuse to do that religiously or spirits.
And then a lot of other go to Anna satis, was your anatomy at him
said that woman fell for himself then, but oh saying no phone name
zero. So they're already changed, and they have a yoke upon their
neck. And that guy there in the actual sense, or that,
metaphorically speaking, this is that what their state is in
relation to the truth, but not just that. And we have set a
barrier before them, and the barrier behind them, and thus have
cover them so that they cannot see
a set as a barrier. And so that if you have a barrier before you,
you're not going to be able to see what's before you.
And if you have a barrier behind you, you're not going to see
what's behind you. And some says that this means is that they will
understand what it is that they should do or believe here in the
world. They're blinded from what's before them. And they're blinded
by what's behind them, in other words, is that let alone what they
should be believing or they're preparing to do for the hereafter.
So there is a barrier before them. And that barrier is a barrier
behind them, in other words, is that they are blind from the signs
of Allah, the signs are there, but there's a barrier on both sides
and are unable to see them for Oh che now whom and thus we have
covered them. And then the result of that is
they are unable to see.
Why is it so important that we as Muslims study this? Because it's
only in recognizing these realities is that when we look out
and we actually listen to what people are saying, or you interact
with people, we will understand what's behind what it is that they
say and do.
So in reality, this should strengthen our faith because we
see this right before our eyes. There are people like this in
existence, no matter what you tell them, they're not going to listen.
And this is why the in relation to our Prophet, his job was to do
beloved was to convey the message his job was to just warn in the
end of the day, you can't do anything for anyone. Unless that
person wants to help their own self. You can't. All you can do is
to do everything you can possibly do. to point people in the right
direction to speak to them in the right way to take the right means
to start with general gentleness and then not move to that
toughness or firmness until you've exhausted all of the opportunities
to do things with the
Got most gentleness. But then after that is it's not up to you.
Guidance is not in our heads, we cannot force people to do
anything. And even if we did force them to do something is that it
wouldn't benefit them anyway, if the only reason they did it was
because someone else forces to do it. So all we can do is to live
how it is that we should live, and then to do our best to help other
people to the extent possible. And that's it.
And if you do that, you will need a lot to add in a good state. And
in relation to the other person, Allahu taala, I don't know what
will happen to them, what is written for them will be sin
period. If Allah to other ones good for them, they will be guided
to the truth that they will then that vendor themselves and if
they've already accepted the truth, to have higher degrees of
practice that goes along with it. So this is all we can really do.
But the reality is that there are certain people as a result of them
going astray inside it was their choice not to accept. But this is
what happens is that it's as if not only are they chained up, but
they're locked from the front and from the back in their coverage.
In other words, there's no way for them to seek them by
then going to be blinded to it as a result of what it is that they
did to their own selves. And that for those that has written for
this is what will happen. And it's not to say that someone can't be
in a bad state,
and then better themselves. It's possible someone could be in a bad
state. So it doesn't mean that anyone in that state right now is
necessarily going to die in that state. Know the people that Allah
Tada only knows who's going to die in that state, this is who he's
referring to, because he knows that these particular individual
are going to die in that state.
As for the people who are in a bad state, whether they be
disbelievers, or whether the believers are falling short, is
that there's still hope for them as long as they're alive. And the
greatest thing that we can do is take the movement of the heart to
that want to embrace the truth or absolutely embrace the truth, to
want to better ourselves, and to draw near to Allah to Allah. And
this the slightest movement of the heart, and then Allah to open up a
door for you. And then the more that you do, the more doors that
will open up for you. And the more energy you put in, the more that
you will get back. And anyone who makes the slightest movement of
the heart will ultimately be guided, that we should know that
with absolute certainty. Anyone who that makes the slightest
movement has the heart. And what is meant by the slightest movement
of a heart is to do something, even if you don't know what to do,
to search for something, even if you don't know what to search for,
to make them open in the heart. And if you can't even do that, you
at least make the intention. And if you don't even you can't even
do that you make the intention to make the intention. And if you can
do that, you make the intention to make the intention to make the
intention. But you have to take that first step and make that
first movement of the heart to get yourself out of this particular
situation. As for people that never accept true, this is really
their state is that they are chained up, and they are that
blocked from ever having the truth that enter into their hearts. And
that if they don't repent or change their state before, that,
it's likely that this is going to be the reality in the next world.
May Allah subhanaw taala protect us. And the final story that I
wanted to mention today
that relates to this verse is our Prophet sallallahu says, And when
that during his lifetime when a number of the disbelievers wanted
to take his life, and they fought it against him, and that they
surrounded his home. So the lady said that in their plan was to
choose different people, young men from different tribes, so they
could all collectively take his life and that way, there was no
way for the prophets clan to seek retribution, some of it so so
we've all heard that story where they surrounded the house and
Jabril before that night that he informed the Prophet
civilize
about what was going to happen. And he said that don't sleep in
your bed tonight that you normally sleep
and that
the Prophet SAW sent him arrange for seeing it to see that in the
place where he normally slept. And so that they even go into great
detail about the the garment that was placed overseeing it, as he
had a green water placed over him that he slept in. And then the
profit salon I sent him had that so when they surrounded the house
and they are wanting to kill the prophesy side is that the Prophet
went out.
And that he went out. And there's different variations of one
narration is that they were they actually slept in one memory. So
they didn't see the prophesy seven. But he was reciting these
verses of USC, but as he left his house
and that beginning with the Sc, and an ending for Allah say now
for hula, you see room. And so the industry have covered them so that
they cannot see.
And they actually mentioned that this is these are verses that you
can recite, if there is a good reason for you to recite them. And
I know someone who was on his way to Hajj and he lost all of his
fingers. And they were going through the checkpoints, and the
papers were completely lost. And as they came to the checkpoint, as
one of the few closes and said start reciting the beginning of
UFC, and just keep reciting.
And they came to the checkpoint, and they asked for the password
and every other person in the car. It was as if that didn't even see
this person. And then they proceeded beyond the check point
and that they were never asked about anything, where's their
paperwork, or where's the passport or anything like that. And that
this is from the blessing of recitation of Surah Yaseen, our
Prophet was reciting a certain lesson as you went out. And that
it says in the narration, is that you wouldn't normally think that
if someone is fleeing a group of people that are coming to take
their lives, is that you would hurry off quickly. But to show his
absolute trust in Allah, is that he went to every single one of
them that took a little bit of dirt and put it on their head,
took a little bit of dirt and put it on their head, what person by
person by person, that putting a little bit of dirt, right on all
of their heads. And in that narration, where they were
sleeping, they woke up and found that there was dirt on their head.
And in the morning that they realized that was actually saved.
I think nobody thought that it was in the bed, and not the Prophet
sallallaahu Selim sent the other narration where they were still
awake is that the Prophet left and none of them saw him. And then
that they asked where Mohammed go, in some a letter said that, oh, he
passed this way, anyhow, that he did recite these verses on July 7.
And I'd love to add to that through them protected him from
those and likewise is that these are a protection for his ummah,
that when it is that there's something that you need protected
from, but also it also is a warning is that we be people who
are blinded from the truth and that we protect ourselves from
having a way of being or that comparing ourselves in a way
whereby wish that we don't have the proper humility and every all
the other qualities of heart that we need to have to be able to have
to penetrate into our hearts and Allah to bless us with these
Ayatollah cuts, and to give us to feature all of our different
affairs and open up our hearts to their means. And they love to have
us with absolute certainty, and believe in everything that is that
we're supposed to believe in and live and die up on that faith, as
unpopular as it is, and the time which we live may be from those
who are raised to the highest degrees and closest to him. So
either by remain firm, and these teachings by our main my doula is
that all that data has commanded us to do that we received the
greatest rewards and this one on the next will sell Aloha this
evening recommended by the LE or somebody a certain
