00:00:55 --> 00:00:55
			Right.
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:24
			Drawing close to him is the
treaties of Allama to dunya.
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:29
			That's his nickname, which
literally means the greatest
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:35
			scholar in the world. The mom, mom
and Abdullah, Bill fucking titled
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:38
			Opening the insight of our
brethren.
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:44
			And so what if you see the English
translation on the front here it
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:45
			says the spheres,
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:49
			Islam, Imam Hassan and they had
fun.
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:51
			And
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:56
			that, that's one of the ways that
it's known. But that's actually
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:57
			that's actually the subtitle.
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:03
			And the main title is fat herd
Bissau. One,
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:09
			which literally means that opening
the inner sight of our brothers,
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:15
			right, so that you don't title a
book
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:19
			in any way other than what you
essentially wrote that book to do.
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:25
			So the whole purpose of this book
is thought, which is the idea of
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:29
			open fat to high lifter, who for
10, is to open.
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32
			And then you have the word balsa,
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			which is the player of basura.
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:40
			And the word basalt and Arabic is
for your physical sight.
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:45
			And then we're Sierra, is for your
inner sight.
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:53
			And so that this book is written
to open the inner side of the
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:54
			horn,
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:59
			and that no political sense, are
looked up real quickly. We're not
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:04
			talking about the while in Egypt,
or any type of ideology or
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:05
			anything like that. Just kidding.
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:12
			But nowadays, even say the word
f1. Or even say the word
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:16
			Hezbollah, people all of a sudden
think of these names and have
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:20
			political affiliations. But the
Hezbollah we all want to be from
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:23
			Hezbollah don't quote that I
noticed we live streamed and
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:28
			people take these snippets a lot
in the Hezbollah, Allah to Allah
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:31
			says, it's about the people of
Allah, the party of Allah.
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:36
			This is what we all want to be
filmed, but in the correct way, in
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:39
			a way that is beloved to Allah,
and the Messenger of Allah.
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:48
			Anyhow, that the Quran here means
his brother and his brothers. And
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:52
			so he essentially wrote this for
his brothers in the spiritual
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:53
			path.
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:59
			And this is the beauty is that
we're all in reality brothers and
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:03
			sisters, in many ways, in very
real race, even though we have
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:07
			different mothers and fathers is
that we're all brothers and
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:12
			sisters in humanity, every single
one of us as a common ancestor, in
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:14
			a very real way, that we all know
that
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:18
			but then there's a special type of
brotherhood that comes from those
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:19
			who enter into Islam.
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:25
			And that everyone that who
believes the same as you but your
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:29
			brother, and from the blessing of
Allah still to this day, this is
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:30
			intact.
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:36
			Why is it that Muslims that tend
to send set arms to each other
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:39
			wherever they might see each other
in airports all over the world?
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:41
			People you know, people you don't
know. They see on the sunset, I'm
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:42
			like,
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:46
			and this is a blessing from Allah
to Allah. And this is something
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:48
			that brings great joy to the
heart.
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:53
			And then you have that in the most
specific sense. So you have
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:58
			brothers and sisters in humanity,
brothers and sisters in faith. And
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:59
			then you have brothers in
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			Sisters in the spiritual path.
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:08
			And so that when you have fellow
brothers and fellow sisters that
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:12
			are taking the spiritual path
seriously. And this might or might
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:15
			mean that you actually have the
same chemical or spiritual path,
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:18
			you can have a different spiritual
path. That's not what it's about.
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:22
			What it means is, is that you are
concerned about drawing near to
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:27
			Allah. And anyone who has that
same concern that your brother or
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:33
			your sister, and that we have to
look out for them. And that way,
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:37
			spiritually, the way that we will
look out for our actual brothers
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:40
			and sisters, and so forth. And so
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:44
			this is why he wrote this book.
And as we will see, it has other
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:48
			titles as well. And so one of the
things that let's all stop and
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:53
			just do right now is to make
strong intentions is that nothing
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:56
			is preventing us from having this
happened to us from reading this
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:57
			book.
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:02
			Allah has called it adequately
che, my teachers would always say,
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:07
			a sappy Maki, the one who's
spiritually irrigated, the people
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:12
			who came before, remain subhanaw
taala. Allah is everlasting. These
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:17
			are how European they can give to
whoever he wants, whatever he
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:21
			wants Supreme Court data. And so
Let's all make a strong intention
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:25
			from the blessing of exposing
ourselves to the sacred ladies is
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:29
			that this is what happens is that
there's a threat at the level of
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:30
			the Sierra
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:40
			and that we have to help book in
realization of iman, s&m and sang.
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:44
			And then he includes this fourth
sphere, which is one of edifying,
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:48
			which is knowing Allah subhanho wa
taala.
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:54
			So the subtitle of it is, it is a
shutter, an explanation of the
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:56
			Dawa era.
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:04
			So the word Delilah data Your duty
is to circulate, it's to go in a
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:07
			circle and make that unit is a
circle.
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:11
			And it could actually be a circle
that you like, draw on the ground,
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:12
			like a circle.
		
00:07:13 --> 00:07:19
			Or it could be that used
metaphorically. So you say that
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:23
			that person's in my dad. Well,
they're in my inner circle, even
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:25
			say that in English and my inner
circle
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:27
			are in my inner group.
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:34
			And is that the profits have been
derived, the Oriental Salehi have
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:38
			their derived and this is this is
where we want to be, we want to be
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:43
			with the righteous, and that we
want to be with them and we want
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:48
			to be close to them. But the word
Dieter was when Linda it's fear.
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:54
			And so one of the ways of looking
at it is that you could refer to
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:56
			it as like concentric circles.
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:03
			And really what it is that it's
three dimensional.
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:07
			When you speak about Iman and
cinnamon Ersan it's three
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:08
			dimensional,
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:14
			not just two dimensional, in order
to that really fully be a believer
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:17
			is that you have to have all of
these different elements, there
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:20
			will be incomplete, you'll be
flat, you're gonna be one or two
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:23
			dimensions only, what we want is
all three.
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:27
			And that another way of looking at
it,
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:31
			if we think of them as concentric
circles
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:35
			is that each one gets deeper and
deeper.
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:40
			And so that this is why that some
of them say when they refer to the
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:44
			the heart, and then the rear. And
then the center
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:48
			that three terms that relate to
our inner being the heart, of
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:54
			course, is the club. The rule, of
course, is the spirit. And the set
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:58
			is the animal secret that some of
them refer to it, like layers,
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:05
			almost like an A, that scent like
peel appearing like that layers
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:09
			that you peel off and it gets
deeper. So you have like the outer
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:13
			husk, and you have like the outer
shell, and then you have like the
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:17
			kernel or the nut. And then you
have if you press that nut that
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:21
			you get oil, like different or you
could think of as like peeling an
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:25
			onion that you take off a layer
and then there's another layer a
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:29
			take off that layer when there's
another layer and so forth. And so
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:35
			that is it's different degrees of
that mirrors of our of our
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:37
			enormous moon. So
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:43
			this is why he wrote this was for
this purpose. Is it so that you
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:48
			and I can actualize our email or
cinema sun and then start to
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:53
			experience at a fun. Now before we
actually get into the work.
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:58
			I wanted to just speak a little
bit about have you ever been
		
00:09:58 --> 00:09:59
			available for key
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:07
			He was one of the great Imams of
Islam. And he's not very well
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:09
			known outside of the Arabian
Peninsula.
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:12
			But within the Arabian Peninsula,
he's very well known.
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:19
			And that he is of prophetic
lineage. So for those of you that
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:22
			have the book that you can see, he
lists his lineage there.
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:28
			And every single one of his
father's back to the Prophet
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:29
			sallallahu sallam
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:34
			was not only from a helpmate,
obviously, that's his lineage. But
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:39
			there were all scholars, and they
were all earlier, every single one
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:39
			of them
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:41
			right back to the cylinder.
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:48
			And you have in his story, this
beautiful glimpse
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:51
			into traditional society.
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:56
			And that tells us a little bit
about how people used to live and
		
00:10:56 --> 00:10:59
			what it is that they used to deem
to be important.
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:03
			And I personally believe that
these glimpses into traditional
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:07
			society, in terms of when we read
stories of the righteous, but
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:12
			also, when we visit the remnants
of these beautiful traditional
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:15
			societies in the Muslim world,
which are still there, they're
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:18
			still there to this day. And for
those of us that were just blessed
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:23
			to going to Morocco, you see the
vestiges in Fez that you see the
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:28
			traces that are left of these
great people, and what it is that
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:32
			they did and what they left
behind. And I always remember one
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:38
			of the amazing things about being
with traditional scholars, and
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:42
			sitting before them and being in
these traditional environments, is
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:44
			that everything is crystal clear.
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:50
			Everything is clear, you know
exactly what life is about.
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:55
			There's no ambiguity, you know
exactly what you have to do in the
		
00:11:55 --> 00:11:59
			beginning of the day, to the end
of the day, you know, what you
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:05
			have to do at various stages of
your life. And that, I was used to
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:09
			wonder why sometimes, they were a
little bit strict on some people
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:14
			that kind of started going astray.
And it just became clear to me
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:16
			that it's very different, like in
our society, where so many people
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:19
			are confused. There's actually a
lot of people that want to be
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:24
			religious, but they just don't
know how. It's very different. But
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:27
			they're, everybody knows. And
increasingly, they're getting
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:30
			confused too. But in general,
people know you're either
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:33
			following the straight path or
not. There's not allowed
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:37
			ambiguity. People knew exactly
what is it you have to do to be
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:40
			good. And then some people choose
not to do it, and they've got no
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:44
			story. There's very few people in
between, either like this or like
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:47
			that. I'm generalizing. But that
was very much my experience, not
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:52
			just in more detail here but also
in testing and in other places. So
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:53
			I've
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:58
			been I've been there his family
name is Bill fucky. One of the
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:03
			famous families of the center but
other than
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:09
			that, go back to the son of
enthalpy and macadam, whose name
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:13
			is Ahmed xenophobia macadam,
Mohammed bin it binary,
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:19
			the greatest imam of the boundary
where he was born in the UK 574
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:21
			and passed him your 653
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:25
			and he had five sons
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:30
			and that one of them was named as
Akhmed. He's always admitted
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:34
			Shaheed is that he used to ask a
lot all the time to die. Shaheed,
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:38
			that was his goal in life was to
die Shaheed and one time that when
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:42
			there was a very heavy rain, and
the flash flood came, that swept
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:46
			him away, he actually drowned. And
he's buried
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:52
			about 20 minutes 25 minutes
outside of TuneIn because the
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:57
			flash flood took him all the way
to this city called Custom. And to
		
00:13:57 --> 00:13:58
			this day, but he's very there
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:02
			was other families like the
Jeffrey family, they'll go back to
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:05
			accommodating and forgiving Mikado
and a number of others
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:07
			said his family had been
forgetting
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:13
			that they are especially known for
knowledge, especially in the later
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:16
			period is that they had a lot of
irlam up that amendment.
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:21
			And so he was born in the year
1089
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:23
			of the Hijra.
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:29
			Okay, so that's 1678. So it's
always funny in my mind when you
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:33
			think about that, like, how he's
actually considered to be from the
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:37
			Matatini like from the later
scholars. Whereas if you think
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:40
			about our society, what was
happening in the United States of
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:42
			America in 1678.
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:47
			Right, that was a lot like what
was happening here.
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:54
			Yes, that you had some colonies,
but it was 100 years roughly
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:56
			before the United States even
became a country
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:59
			and that he's doing what
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02
			The same way that his ancestors
were doing for centuries.
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:09
			So he was born into being in the
hub remote by. And that, as was
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:14
			customary, is that the first thing
that he did when he learned how to
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:16
			read and write was to memorize the
Quran.
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:22
			And that this really is considered
to be almost like it's not but
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:24
			it's almost like a prerequisite
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:29
			of any true scholar is that they
memorize the book of Allah,
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:34
			because that's where it begins and
that's where it ends. In the end,
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:36
			you always come back to the Quran.
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:40
			One of the famous statements have
you ever had dad is that he said,
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:45
			A modied an aspirin someone who's
seeking closest to Allah is not
		
00:15:45 --> 00:15:49
			called a modied. They're not
really seeking closest to Allah
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:53
			until they find in the Quran,
Kanuma you read everything that he
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:58
			wants, everything that he needs,
everything that he's seeking. But
		
00:15:58 --> 00:15:59
			ultimately,
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:03
			everything is in the book of
Allah, everything is there.
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:04
			Everything is in the book of
Allah.
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:11
			And then that the sunnah of our
Prophet expounds what is in the
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:16
			Quran? And then the scholars
expound what is in the sunnah of
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:16
			our Prophet.
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:21
			And so there's various degrees
then but ultimately it all gets
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:26
			back to the Quran. Everything gets
back to the Quran all a name, get
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:31
			back to the Quran. And it is for
this reason, is it they say that
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:36
			is Camilla Willard. The most
perfect litany of the greatest of
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:39
			the Olia is the root of the Quran.
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:44
			It's the greatest word of all. And
you could also say, in addition to
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:49
			five daily prayers, the five day
repairs are weird, it is something
		
00:16:49 --> 00:16:55
			you have to do day in and day out.
And that and that's more in terms
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:59
			of what Allah Tada has prescribed.
And even though Ramadan is a word,
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:05
			it's something we do on a yearly
basis. But the Quran reading the
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:07
			Quran is the greatest word of all.
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:12
			And it's not always easy for us,
though,
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:16
			to fully approach it, though, in
that way, there's a lot that you
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:19
			have to do in order to understand
the last book.
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:23
			And there are a lot of tools that
you have to acquire, to understand
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:27
			a lot to add his book. And yes, it
doesn't mean that you don't still
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:31
			recite the Quran devotional you
do, even while you're trying to
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:34
			acquire those tools, and it will
have an impact upon you. But this
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:35
			is what he did.
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:41
			And so he said after this, as it
is said about mastering the basic
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:42
			Islamic sciences,
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:48
			and that he spent 10 years
constantly keeping the company
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:50
			off. And learning from
		
00:17:52 --> 00:17:54
			his father, who was a great
scholar,
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:57
			have you Abdullah, been partnered.
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:02
			And that this is the way that they
used to do it is that their very
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:04
			first teachers were their parents.
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:07
			There was the mother, and it was
their father.
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:14
			So this is where Dean begins. This
is where the training begins, is
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:17
			that if we wait for someone else
to teach our children is that
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:19
			who's going to teach our children
if we're not teaching our children
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:25
			at home, both mother and father
alike. The number one duty upon
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:29
			their shoulders, is not just
providing food and drinking
		
00:18:29 --> 00:18:31
			clothing for them and shelter.
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:37
			The duty that takes precedence
over that is helping them arrive
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:41
			to the hereafter safely. That is
the number one duty. And
		
00:18:41 --> 00:18:45
			everything else is important,
although secondary, in addition to
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:45
			that,
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:51
			and sometimes we get our
priorities mixed up. We get overly
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:57
			concerned about their world their
lives, and that we shouldn't be
		
00:18:57 --> 00:19:00
			concerned about our worldly lives
insofar as it relates to the
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:04
			hereafter. So I'm not saying that
you don't have a career. I'm not
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:10
			saying that you that don't develop
a trade or learn a craft. I'm not
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:14
			saying that you don't go to
school. But what how are we
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:18
			training our upcoming generation
to look at that? What is their
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:22
			intention in doing so? Is it if we
look at it solely from a revenue
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:25
			perspective, there's a whole bunch
of ideas out there, the vast
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:28
			majority of which will take them
astray, and will lead them to make
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:32
			bad decisions. But we want to
ingrain in them from an early age,
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:37
			how to approach life and what it
really is all about. And then to
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:41
			help channel them in the direction
that is best for them. And we
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:44
			don't want to put unnecessary
pressure on them.
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:50
			When that might not be their path.
Nor do we want to unnecessarily
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:54
			that leaves them unmotivated. It's
a balance and each child is
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:54
			different.
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:59
			And we have to tailor our approach
to each child
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:04
			and figuring out what is best for
them. But this is the way these
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:08
			people were 10 years that he spent
studying with his own father.
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:10
			And
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:12
			that again,
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:16
			you know, part of what we're
covering in the sisters Holika,
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:21
			you know, is this is this idea of
traditional principles for raising
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:24
			children in the modern world. And
it's difficult because so many
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:25
			things get turned upside down.
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:34
			And what was previously, that
exception, that exception has now
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:35
			become the norm.
		
00:20:36 --> 00:20:40
			And you have to readjust based
upon the societies in which we
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:46
			live. And that oftentimes we find
ourselves trying to prevent
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:49
			greater harm from coming, and then
actually really building solid
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:53
			foundations. And I think that this
is why we have such a beautiful
		
00:20:53 --> 00:20:58
			opportunity here, living together
in a community, where we really
		
00:20:58 --> 00:21:03
			have an opportunity, I believe, I
really believe this, to build
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:07
			strong foundations in our
children. So they're not just
		
00:21:07 --> 00:21:12
			always trying to stay above water,
Mother adept swimmers, and
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:17
			they know how to that deal with
the challenges of the time in
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:21
			which we live. And one of the most
important things that they need to
		
00:21:21 --> 00:21:23
			do that is deep spirituality.
		
00:21:24 --> 00:21:29
			They have strong Eman, and they
have a holistic perspective on
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:33
			life. So nothing for them is
outside of the scope of the
		
00:21:33 --> 00:21:37
			religion. And the approach to the
deen is vast enough that anything
		
00:21:37 --> 00:21:41
			that they do in life is that
they've already been trained, how
		
00:21:41 --> 00:21:45
			to conceive of that thing, how to
approach that thing. And this is
		
00:21:45 --> 00:21:46
			possible, but it takes time.
		
00:21:48 --> 00:21:53
			And so he says that His Father
commanded him to take his place
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:56
			teaching a given fatwa before the
age of 20.
		
00:21:58 --> 00:22:01
			What do we do with our childhood?
Yeah, with the
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:06
			end up spending, studying texts
that we should have studied when
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:06
			we were young.
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:10
			And it's, it's it's humbling
knowledge is humbling. I remember,
		
00:22:11 --> 00:22:16
			my goodness, the first time I went
to Montana, and I was trying to
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:20
			speak Arabic. I didn't know that
many words, these young kids
		
00:22:20 --> 00:22:23
			thought it was so hilarious,
right? They say this, and I'm
		
00:22:23 --> 00:22:26
			like, pronounce it wrong. And they
were all like laugh and like, make
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:30
			fun of me, like the way that I
said it. And then it's Jani Akka.
		
00:22:32 --> 00:22:35
			And I remember that, that first
summer,
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:40
			I was within a year of conversion.
And I spent some time in what
		
00:22:40 --> 00:22:45
			Italia and then Mustapha Davis and
I went on this journey after that,
		
00:22:45 --> 00:22:48
			my God, I think we might have set
a Guinness Book of World Records
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:51
			in terms of types of
transportation that we used.
		
00:22:52 --> 00:22:56
			Anyhow, we arrived to Granada,
Spain. And we're staying with
		
00:22:57 --> 00:23:02
			shake up with the son of the robot
that has Rahim Allah, and that Dr.
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:05
			Anwar Mooney, Israel had spent
time in Granada.
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:11
			And they had this tape of Dr.
Omar. For me, it was like that
		
00:23:11 --> 00:23:17
			time, maybe 1520 years old. And as
Dr. Omar, that saying the alphabet
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:21
			and walking through the letters,
and how to pronounce all the
		
00:23:21 --> 00:23:25
			hunter cats, the diacritics on the
letters. And of course, Dr. Elmer
		
00:23:25 --> 00:23:28
			there's actually a video online. I
don't know if you've seen it, but
		
00:23:28 --> 00:23:32
			he's at the money Keyfit
conference. And Dr. Rochelle law
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:33
			was Yanni
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:38
			his Arabic was impeccable way back
in the day. And they used to
		
00:23:38 --> 00:23:42
			mention about Dr. Gomez that when
he was learning Arabic, he refused
		
00:23:42 --> 00:23:45
			to speak to anyone in English,
could speak to him Arabic cross,
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:51
			refuse, look, look at his
knowledge of the Arabic language
		
00:23:51 --> 00:23:56
			and to speak it and even he's one
of the few agile knees. The Arabs
		
00:23:56 --> 00:23:57
			actually really think
		
00:23:58 --> 00:24:02
			that most Arabs no matter how much
we sit and try to learn Arabic is
		
00:24:02 --> 00:24:06
			an anime. All it takes is just one
word or one expression cut us
		
00:24:06 --> 00:24:11
			Cantonese and Jimmy is a non Arab.
And he was just going through the
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:15
			alphabet. And if and then that be
boo.
		
00:24:17 --> 00:24:21
			And then what I remember just
sitting there having to just, you
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:24
			have to force yourself to just
figure out how to pronounce these
		
00:24:24 --> 00:24:27
			letters that are so foreign to
English speakers, anyhow, that
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:29
			they thought it was kind of funny,
and this is why they say is that
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:32
			in order to ever be a student of
knowledge,
		
00:24:33 --> 00:24:35
			the role of Arabic is to Jehovah
		
00:24:36 --> 00:24:39
			which is like if you have a nasty
medicine that your mother is
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:39
			making you drink,
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:44
			right? Like your probiotics or
whatever at home
		
00:24:45 --> 00:24:46
			that you have to just
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:52
			just force yourself to swallow it
even though you don't want to. And
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:56
			as you have to do that you have if
you don't do that we're learning
		
00:24:57 --> 00:24:59
			that you always remain ignorant is
that you have to
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:02
			force yourself to swallow the pill
of humility
		
00:25:03 --> 00:25:08
			and just humiliate yourself. And
they asked him and Abbas is that
		
00:25:08 --> 00:25:11
			how did you attain everything that
is that you attained?
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:18
			And he said that I learned myself
as a student, related Barddhaman
		
00:25:19 --> 00:25:26
			resistor that Mr. Lubin does that
I lowered myself as a student. And
		
00:25:26 --> 00:25:29
			then I was put in a position where
people needed to ask me questions.
		
00:25:30 --> 00:25:34
			And nothing. There's nothing this
honor about lowering yourself and
		
00:25:34 --> 00:25:37
			saying, I don't know. And I'm
going to learn. That's exactly
		
00:25:37 --> 00:25:38
			what we have to do.
		
00:25:40 --> 00:25:40
			So
		
00:25:41 --> 00:25:48
			that he also kept the company of
his maternal grandfather, heavy by
		
00:25:48 --> 00:25:51
			the name of Hamid, Mohammed bin
Abdul Rahman hydroset.
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:54
			Incidentally, for those who this
word, Habib, what does it mean?
		
00:25:55 --> 00:25:57
			It's a technical term that
essentially means a scholar, a
		
00:25:57 --> 00:26:02
			pious person from admits. And even
in the value tradition, it was
		
00:26:02 --> 00:26:05
			only used for the time of remember
had died into the present day. So
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:09
			it's only really been used for the
past 300 years. And then in the
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:14
			period before that, roughly from
the time of SEMA for chemo, cut
		
00:26:14 --> 00:26:18
			them in to that of him or her dad,
they used to use the word share.
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:21
			So you have that's why we have
like Shika, better Minister cough
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:24
			shakable welcome inside, they will
use the word shift. And then
		
00:26:24 --> 00:26:28
			before that, from the time of Imam
and Maharaja, they tended to use
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:33
			the word Imam, because of their
great statute and in the revision.
		
00:26:34 --> 00:26:38
			So he spent time learning from his
maternal grandfather and his
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:43
			maternal uncle. Both were aroma.
So you can imagine if he grew up
		
00:26:43 --> 00:26:47
			in that environment, where
everybody around you is learning,
		
00:26:47 --> 00:26:50
			and this is why but if we could
create that here, even snippets of
		
00:26:50 --> 00:26:54
			that, where this is just what
people do, they spend time
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:59
			learning. This is what people do
at assert this time. This is what
		
00:26:59 --> 00:27:03
			people do on the weekends. Yes,
you can still take vacations and
		
00:27:03 --> 00:27:07
			these other types of things. But
if we establish that type of
		
00:27:07 --> 00:27:10
			culture that just becomes what it
is what you do, I could swear off
		
00:27:10 --> 00:27:16
			Biola that what you will get from
that is so much greater than what
		
00:27:16 --> 00:27:20
			you think that you're getting, by
doing those other things is that
		
00:27:20 --> 00:27:23
			you will completely believe in
those other things in your mind
		
00:27:23 --> 00:27:26
			compared to the sweetness of
learning once you touch taste the
		
00:27:26 --> 00:27:27
			sweetness.
		
00:27:28 --> 00:27:31
			The problem is when you taste the
sweetness of learning.
		
00:27:33 --> 00:27:35
			It's difficult then,
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:38
			especially when you get pulled
into admin thinks
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:44
			that nevermind, we won't go there.
He also started at the hands of
		
00:27:44 --> 00:27:46
			his brother Hamid, Mohammed. And
have you ever lived in Oman and
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:50
			held along? Then you spent a
number of years receiving
		
00:27:50 --> 00:27:54
			knowledge from Imam Abdullah? Will
Allah we had had dad, so we no
		
00:27:54 --> 00:27:59
			longer had dad was born in the
year 1044. And passes in the year
		
00:27:59 --> 00:28:06
			1132. Okay, so he was born in the
year 1089. So he was born 45 years
		
00:28:06 --> 00:28:10
			after he had died roughly. And he
dies 30 years after him. So
		
00:28:10 --> 00:28:13
			remember, have you ever seen that
significantly older, but he was
		
00:28:13 --> 00:28:18
			one of his primary teachers, and
that he raised him, and he trained
		
00:28:18 --> 00:28:22
			him. And that he said about this
time that he spent with him or her
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:29
			dad, I read numerous books to him,
and benefited from him greatly. He
		
00:28:29 --> 00:28:34
			had special concern for me, and
pure love for me that just imagine
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:37
			what that would have been like to
spend time with someone like him
		
00:28:37 --> 00:28:42
			on the head that that studied with
him into a learn from him, and to
		
00:28:42 --> 00:28:47
			have been in his presence. You can
see why these people used to, but
		
00:28:47 --> 00:28:51
			why they attained what it is that
they attained. He says What have
		
00:28:51 --> 00:28:53
			you on the other hand would carry
an umbrella for him in their head
		
00:28:53 --> 00:28:58
			that to shade him from the sun. On
his visits to the prophet hood.
		
00:28:58 --> 00:29:02
			Alehissalaam remember, had that
thought very highly of him. He was
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:06
			sent some very difficult legal
questions. And when you saw him he
		
00:29:06 --> 00:29:11
			had been immense answers to them.
He named him a limited dunya. So
		
00:29:11 --> 00:29:15
			when I had dad, does it like chick
under college a nanny for that
		
00:29:15 --> 00:29:19
			they said is that he had the
bottle of Cherie on his right, and
		
00:29:19 --> 00:29:21
			the bucket of hockey on his left.
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:25
			And that he would dip into
whatever ocean of knowledge that
		
00:29:25 --> 00:29:29
			he'd want in each time. But he
needs from the bottom of the ocean
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:33
			of the Sharia what he needs from
the ocean of the Haqiqa. And
		
00:29:33 --> 00:29:36
			someone said that him or her dad
was very much that Metallica
		
00:29:36 --> 00:29:39
			Allahu taala. But despite that
he's 30 years older, had there
		
00:29:39 --> 00:29:39
			been
		
00:29:40 --> 00:29:44
			any direct fit questions to him?
This is the way these people were.
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:51
			They had many fruits for how many
foods? There wasn't. You know, I'm
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:55
			the senior scholar here. They
didn't look at it like that. That
		
00:29:55 --> 00:29:58
			in fact that if there was someone
that could suffice them
		
00:29:59 --> 00:29:59
			isn't it
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:01
			She's laying off their shoulder.
		
00:30:02 --> 00:30:06
			They would push people that to
other people if that they know
		
00:30:06 --> 00:30:10
			those people were qualified to
deal with it. And this is the way
		
00:30:10 --> 00:30:13
			the true people have a lot art.
And I remember one of my teachers
		
00:30:13 --> 00:30:20
			Sheikh Ahmad, the law preserving a
great fucky and very spiritually
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:25
			gifted person. And then he said
the word for him, mirrored for him
		
00:30:25 --> 00:30:28
			in Arabic languages like that.
		
00:30:29 --> 00:30:34
			They speak of it like in terms of
goats, like the prize goat, that
		
00:30:34 --> 00:30:38
			is, helps the flock anyhow, the
forehand, like the greatest
		
00:30:38 --> 00:30:42
			scholar, as he says, is the one
who wants his students to surpass
		
00:30:42 --> 00:30:45
			him. He said, another true
scholar, if you want your students
		
00:30:45 --> 00:30:50
			to remain, while you're at it,
rather than scholars try to find
		
00:30:50 --> 00:30:55
			the quickest way possible to get
people up to where they're at. So
		
00:30:55 --> 00:30:58
			then they can go further. Because
they want them to go way beyond
		
00:30:58 --> 00:31:02
			what it is that they've attained.
And that's totally possible,
		
00:31:02 --> 00:31:06
			because you can, through a proper
instruction, summarize the path
		
00:31:06 --> 00:31:09
			for people so that they can move
very quickly. And this is why you
		
00:31:09 --> 00:31:14
			have a lot of books that do that.
And that this, is that something
		
00:31:14 --> 00:31:18
			that this is how they view this.
So he says these people were very
		
00:31:18 --> 00:31:22
			difficult legal questions, and how
they met without even looking at a
		
00:31:22 --> 00:31:26
			book answers them, writes his
answers. And then when he went
		
00:31:26 --> 00:31:30
			ahead and read the answers, he
says, We're law, nothing aquire
		
00:31:30 --> 00:31:34
			method of drama. He said, My
Allah, there's no one in the
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:38
			cosmos like Abderrahman, meaning
that this is one of the greatest
		
00:31:38 --> 00:31:42
			scholars of all time. So who can
answer questions like that? And
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:46
			he was, have you ever heard of him
and I've known that was known to
		
00:31:46 --> 00:31:48
			be very simple. He was a farmer.
		
00:31:49 --> 00:31:53
			In addition to his scholarly
activities, he actually spent time
		
00:31:53 --> 00:31:57
			farming, he would cultivate the
earth and not just garden like we
		
00:31:57 --> 00:32:00
			go out every once a while and
garden. No, he was a farmer,
		
00:32:01 --> 00:32:05
			where he would actually spend time
on the farm, that cultivating
		
00:32:05 --> 00:32:07
			crops, harvesting them.
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:12
			And there's this beautiful story
where that there was a group of
		
00:32:12 --> 00:32:14
			people who came to the people of
TuneIn, to ask them a few
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:19
			questions. And they were in a
place the grave of a man Badgett
		
00:32:19 --> 00:32:24
			Havana, just outside of today. And
that he was sent to go speak to
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:26
			these people and answer their
questions.
		
00:32:27 --> 00:32:31
			And he had been farming that day.
So when he went to them, he had
		
00:32:31 --> 00:32:31
			his shovel.
		
00:32:33 --> 00:32:38
			And that he had his shovel and
another instrument that he was
		
00:32:38 --> 00:32:38
			using to farm.
		
00:32:40 --> 00:32:44
			And he came in farm close by, he's
been on the phone, he's dirty, he
		
00:32:44 --> 00:32:48
			can imagine what he would have
looked like. And that he walks up
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:50
			to them, and they say, who are
you?
		
00:32:51 --> 00:32:54
			Right? He mentioned his name. And
he says that I'm here to help
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:58
			answer your questions. So they
present the questions to him
		
00:32:58 --> 00:33:00
			without looking at a book.
		
00:33:02 --> 00:33:07
			He just met Lynch's answers. And
they're like, how could they
		
00:33:07 --> 00:33:10
			thought he was a hoddan. They
thought he was just someone who
		
00:33:10 --> 00:33:14
			was like surfing around the house.
And they said, if this is like
		
00:33:14 --> 00:33:14
			this,
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:18
			this is what the servants
intending look like. He says, What
		
00:33:18 --> 00:33:23
			about the scholars, but he was
very humble, he used to draw the
		
00:33:23 --> 00:33:27
			water from the well, right by
himself. And if you ever see in a
		
00:33:27 --> 00:33:31
			traditional society, usually only
servants do that. Like in
		
00:33:31 --> 00:33:34
			Mauritania, there's only certain
people who draw the water onto the
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:34
			walls.
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:39
			But at times, you would find these
very humble scholars who would go
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:41
			and do these types of things
because they wanted to serve
		
00:33:41 --> 00:33:46
			themselves. And they wanted to
break their souls. And they did
		
00:33:46 --> 00:33:47
			not want enough to get the rest of
them.
		
00:33:48 --> 00:33:49
			And
		
00:33:50 --> 00:33:54
			he also traveled to different
places in Yemen, he was known to
		
00:33:54 --> 00:33:58
			have visited the scholars in the
speed. And he also
		
00:34:00 --> 00:34:05
			became, he came to know many of
the earlier MA in the How to rein
		
00:34:05 --> 00:34:09
			in the rest of cities of Mecca and
Medina. And it was there but he
		
00:34:09 --> 00:34:14
			connected to the vast majority of
other spiritual paths by way of
		
00:34:14 --> 00:34:18
			TumbleBook, which is the way of
the ODI in the sight of him for
		
00:34:18 --> 00:34:21
			like to have connections and
different chains of narration back
		
00:34:21 --> 00:34:26
			to the Prophet, similar NSW
Salaam. And many of his works are
		
00:34:26 --> 00:34:28
			still here with us. And hopefully
some of them more of them will
		
00:34:28 --> 00:34:32
			return to English, have a
compilation of a two volume work
		
00:34:32 --> 00:34:36
			of art that includes many of his
other treaties, and books that he
		
00:34:36 --> 00:34:42
			wrote. And one of his more famous
works on lines of poetry called
		
00:34:42 --> 00:34:47
			the Russia fat. And they're some
of the most beautiful lines of
		
00:34:47 --> 00:34:51
			poetry in existence. They're just
incredibly beautiful. And it's
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:56
			almost as if like, he can write in
writing the way that he can write
		
00:34:56 --> 00:34:59
			in just posts. Right it's just he
it's almost a he has such a cool
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:03
			Land of the Arabic language is
that the same thing that you can
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:08
			do in practice you can do in
poetry. And there's a lot of, you
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:12
			know, different in the recited in
a very specific way. But there's a
		
00:35:12 --> 00:35:15
			lot of lessons in this, this books
actually been published in Arabic,
		
00:35:16 --> 00:35:19
			and has a commentary by Sheikh
Abdullah, Bin Salman best done.
		
00:35:23 --> 00:35:28
			normal citizen were better. And
then one other last story about
		
00:35:28 --> 00:35:34
			his life. There was a time during
his time that there was a ruler
		
00:35:34 --> 00:35:38
			who put him in prison for a
particular reason.
		
00:35:40 --> 00:35:40
			And
		
00:35:42 --> 00:35:48
			what they put him in a barrel. So
they had a ball that it was just
		
00:35:48 --> 00:35:51
			big enough for a human being to
fit in, but he couldn't stand up.
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:55
			And so they put him inside of a
barrel and left them in there for
		
00:35:55 --> 00:35:59
			an extended period of time. And to
the point that they said that he
		
00:36:01 --> 00:36:02
			almost died.
		
00:36:03 --> 00:36:05
			That afternoon released after they
released him.
		
00:36:07 --> 00:36:10
			In his presence, someone said
something bad about the ruler.
		
00:36:12 --> 00:36:16
			And his response was, is that
don't speak bad about anyone.
		
00:36:18 --> 00:36:21
			The ruler that tortured him and
punished him
		
00:36:22 --> 00:36:24
			is that he didn't want anyone to
speak bad about anyone in his
		
00:36:24 --> 00:36:28
			presence. He forbade that person
from saying something bad about
		
00:36:28 --> 00:36:29
			the person who tortured him.
		
00:36:31 --> 00:36:35
			And that they said to him, that
this ruler wrongly imprisoned you
		
00:36:35 --> 00:36:36
			and tortured you.
		
00:36:37 --> 00:36:41
			But look at this, this is the
people of Allah. And that I've
		
00:36:41 --> 00:36:44
			heard my teachers mentioned this
so many times, but this is one of
		
00:36:44 --> 00:36:47
			the fundamental problems of the
Ummah of our prophets, Eliza is
		
00:36:47 --> 00:36:49
			that we forgot this
		
00:36:50 --> 00:36:54
			came out to Kulu, you will let it
come, as you are, so will your
		
00:36:54 --> 00:37:01
			rules be forgotten this the other
provinces seven that remains
		
00:37:01 --> 00:37:04
			introspective, they look at their
own selves? What did he say? He
		
00:37:04 --> 00:37:08
			said, I was the cause of my own
imprisonment.
		
00:37:10 --> 00:37:15
			And a wonder aerations. In one
narration, he said, it was because
		
00:37:15 --> 00:37:19
			of a sin that I committed that
this happened to me. That's how we
		
00:37:19 --> 00:37:20
			saw it.
		
00:37:21 --> 00:37:25
			And what was that sin, the sinner
is not like a sin. Like I said,
		
00:37:25 --> 00:37:29
			the way that we think of it, he
says that he had a servant, that
		
00:37:29 --> 00:37:32
			one time that brought him some
water,
		
00:37:33 --> 00:37:37
			and that he forgot to remind her
to pray on time.
		
00:37:38 --> 00:37:40
			So she postponed the prayer out of
the time.
		
00:37:41 --> 00:37:45
			And he said that, if I would have
reminded her to pray, she would
		
00:37:45 --> 00:37:48
			have prayed. And so because of
that sin, that he viewed that as a
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:53
			sin in his right, because of that
sin. Is it Allah made this happen
		
00:37:53 --> 00:37:53
			to me.
		
00:37:54 --> 00:37:59
			He viewed his torture and
imprisonment as something his own
		
00:37:59 --> 00:38:04
			hands had wrought. But this is how
the people of Allah are. This is
		
00:38:04 --> 00:38:08
			how they are they never blame
other people. Whenever they go
		
00:38:08 --> 00:38:13
			through tribulation, they blame
their own self. And now we all
		
00:38:13 --> 00:38:16
			might be thinking in our minds
now, okay. Does that mean that
		
00:38:16 --> 00:38:18
			okay, this has happened to me,
this is all because of something
		
00:38:18 --> 00:38:21
			that I've done it. There's a lot
of details that you have to walk
		
00:38:21 --> 00:38:26
			through and not to confuse people.
But in general, yes. In general,
		
00:38:26 --> 00:38:30
			yes. Is that the greatest source
of calamities is sin.
		
00:38:31 --> 00:38:36
			And that has a lot to do but
honestly, I didn't recover me. The
		
00:38:36 --> 00:38:40
			good deeds of the righteous are
the bad deeds of those who are
		
00:38:40 --> 00:38:43
			close to Allah Tada. And to the
degree of our closest to Allah is
		
00:38:43 --> 00:38:48
			the degree to which is that we
will be taken to account for
		
00:38:48 --> 00:38:52
			certain things. And that the
closer that we get to Allah, the
		
00:38:52 --> 00:38:57
			fire the relationship gets, and
then the more aware of it we
		
00:38:57 --> 00:39:00
			become, but for him, it's like he
knew exactly what it was. This is
		
00:39:00 --> 00:39:05
			what it was. And so he embraced
that insight as a cathedra
		
00:39:07 --> 00:39:11
			as an atonement for what it is
that he did. He's taken and now
		
00:39:11 --> 00:39:13
			here in the dunya, and call us,
he's not going to be taken to
		
00:39:13 --> 00:39:19
			account for in the next world. And
so he had great students as well.
		
00:39:20 --> 00:39:23
			That many of the great Imams of
TuneIn were his students have been
		
00:39:23 --> 00:39:26
			hammered over Muhammad Habib
siofok, when homeless took off the
		
00:39:27 --> 00:39:31
			grandfather down the line of 100
Mikado, so cough and the famous
		
00:39:31 --> 00:39:36
			Habib, remember must have an iPad
or a smartphone fahara In your
		
00:39:36 --> 00:39:40
			sentence, Xena, Danny the Sahaba
on the fact that he was one of his
		
00:39:40 --> 00:39:48
			students. And that so he passed
away in the 1162 of the hijab,
		
00:39:48 --> 00:39:51
			you're 1749 And
		
00:39:54 --> 00:39:56
			one final story about him
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:00
			It
		
00:40:15 --> 00:40:18
			is one of the other reasons that
they used to call a learner to
		
00:40:18 --> 00:40:21
			dinner. And now these are this
book that I've used to cut out
		
00:40:21 --> 00:40:26
			with heavy body. The stories get a
little bit more esoteric, let's
		
00:40:26 --> 00:40:26
			say.
		
00:40:27 --> 00:40:31
			There's a he used to say, well
Connie record were the one who
		
00:40:31 --> 00:40:34
			then Athena and Nasir il two
alpha.
		
00:40:35 --> 00:40:39
			There's 30 languages that I
possessed that I was never once
		
00:40:39 --> 00:40:40
			asked about
		
00:40:41 --> 00:40:43
			30 different languages.
		
00:40:44 --> 00:40:47
			And when he says what to learn to
be multi, they're going to die
		
00:40:47 --> 00:40:48
			with my death.
		
00:40:49 --> 00:40:55
			And that they used to eat what
they said about him is that Carlo
		
00:40:55 --> 00:40:57
			and Illuma unique, I'll admit
		
00:40:59 --> 00:41:02
			that they said that he had close
to 100 different types of
		
00:41:02 --> 00:41:03
			knowledge.
		
00:41:04 --> 00:41:07
			And that when he was getting close
to passing,
		
00:41:08 --> 00:41:11
			as if he called for that email, it
had been so comfortable having a
		
00:41:11 --> 00:41:16
			sock off. And that he said, Come
close to me, and take from me this
		
00:41:16 --> 00:41:19
			knowledge, that keep in mind,
there's that famous narration of
		
00:41:19 --> 00:41:24
			Sinead even every time that he's
to point to his chest, he say, in
		
00:41:24 --> 00:41:29
			the heart of southern that, I
mean, Jana, there is a copious
		
00:41:29 --> 00:41:33
			amount of knowledge in this chest
of mine, no reject to the HA HA,
		
00:41:33 --> 00:41:39
			Mala. Oh, I to find people who
would learn it, but literally how
		
00:41:39 --> 00:41:40
			Mala to carry it.
		
00:41:41 --> 00:41:46
			And this is the thing is that,
that when people want to learn,
		
00:41:47 --> 00:41:51
			knowledge comes from the heart to
the tongue when people learn. And
		
00:41:51 --> 00:41:55
			this is the thing is that if
someone's thirsty to learn, Allah
		
00:41:55 --> 00:41:58
			will bring people from the other
side of the Earth for you to
		
00:41:58 --> 00:41:58
			learn,
		
00:41:59 --> 00:42:03
			if someone wants to learn, is that
Allah Tala will facilitate you
		
00:42:03 --> 00:42:07
			that a way to learn. But even if
you think that it's far fetched,
		
00:42:07 --> 00:42:10
			even if you think that it's
difficult, and when he was
		
00:42:10 --> 00:42:14
			approaching his, when he was poor
to his death, is that they said to
		
00:42:14 --> 00:42:17
			him, because it shouldn't bring
you a premium, should we bring
		
00:42:17 --> 00:42:18
			your doctor?
		
00:42:19 --> 00:42:21
			And he had a very different
perspective. And yes, you can
		
00:42:21 --> 00:42:25
			bring a doctor sure that's from
the means. These are people with
		
00:42:25 --> 00:42:30
			Allah. They don't they take the
means. But he said that, I'm
		
00:42:30 --> 00:42:34
			always amazed that people who are
sick, ie their hearts are sick,
		
00:42:34 --> 00:42:39
			not the woman, Toby. And none of
them are seeking doctors to cure
		
00:42:39 --> 00:42:42
			the real diseases, whichever the
diseases of the heart.
		
00:42:44 --> 00:42:46
			And then he quoted the statement
of say, no book of Sadiq, that
		
00:42:47 --> 00:42:51
			when he was close to passing, and
they said to him, is that Shall we
		
00:42:51 --> 00:42:56
			bring you a doctor, and he says,
of Toby de la vie, and Ronnie is
		
00:42:56 --> 00:43:00
			that the doctor is the one that
made me sick in the first place.
		
00:43:00 --> 00:43:02
			Now, that doesn't mean that we
don't know medicine.
		
00:43:04 --> 00:43:08
			Man, in the end, we're intimate
have done. Knowledge is of two
		
00:43:08 --> 00:43:12
			traits, the knowledge of religion,
the knowledge of that medicine,
		
00:43:12 --> 00:43:14
			it's very, it's one of the most
		
00:43:15 --> 00:43:20
			praiseworthy analogies that we can
learn. Because our physical body
		
00:43:20 --> 00:43:22
			is what we need to travel our path
to Allah.
		
00:43:23 --> 00:43:27
			But the area, the reason they're
concerned about their physical
		
00:43:27 --> 00:43:28
			health is different than the other
people.
		
00:43:29 --> 00:43:32
			They only are concerned about
their physical health, so that
		
00:43:33 --> 00:43:36
			when they receive very powerful
spiritual states, it doesn't
		
00:43:36 --> 00:43:38
			affect the physical body and
prevent them from worship.
		
00:43:39 --> 00:43:42
			And the stronger your
constitution, the stronger your
		
00:43:42 --> 00:43:47
			physical body is, the more you'll
be able to bear spiritual weight.
		
00:43:48 --> 00:43:54
			And spiritual weight takes a toll
on your physical body. And I've
		
00:43:54 --> 00:43:57
			seen this firsthand right before
my eyes, literally, I've seen
		
00:43:57 --> 00:44:02
			people. It was actually one of the
descendants who did the technique
		
00:44:02 --> 00:44:05
			of another version, another copy
of this book, we were going to
		
00:44:05 --> 00:44:09
			visit Zumba. And he always used to
complain about his hip.
		
00:44:10 --> 00:44:13
			And he'd seen multiple doctors and
none of them ever said anything
		
00:44:13 --> 00:44:16
			was wrong with him. They couldn't
find what was wrong with him. And
		
00:44:16 --> 00:44:18
			when we went to go visit him, but
everything was fine. He was
		
00:44:18 --> 00:44:19
			walking normal.
		
00:44:20 --> 00:44:24
			But then as you enter, you walk
about 50 feet, and then you turn
		
00:44:24 --> 00:44:24
			right.
		
00:44:25 --> 00:44:28
			And as we turned right, which is
where you actually start to go
		
00:44:28 --> 00:44:33
			visit earlier. He started limping.
She was totally fine. He was
		
00:44:33 --> 00:44:34
			totally fine.
		
00:44:35 --> 00:44:38
			And then he starts limping. And
we're getting closer to the
		
00:44:38 --> 00:44:41
			greater center for him Academy.
He's like, really limping.
		
00:44:43 --> 00:44:47
			And we're about 15 feet away from
the grave. And he's holding on to
		
00:44:47 --> 00:44:49
			me, and he can't he can't really
walk.
		
00:44:50 --> 00:44:53
			But he's he's he's like hobbling.
		
00:44:55 --> 00:44:59
			Then we visit and then he, you
know we start to leave and
		
00:45:00 --> 00:45:03
			And eventually, it just, it just
goes away.
		
00:45:04 --> 00:45:07
			And it's literally witnessing,
like what happened. You can tell
		
00:45:07 --> 00:45:11
			it to people or not. People hear
that like, Oh, they're faking it.
		
00:45:11 --> 00:45:14
			Oh, that was a biller. Right.
These are people who lodge in the
		
00:45:14 --> 00:45:17
			gelato. But these are people
who've never told a lie in their
		
00:45:17 --> 00:45:19
			life. I don't even know what line
is.
		
00:45:21 --> 00:45:26
			And that it's this, the spiritual
rate is real. That shake up at our
		
00:45:26 --> 00:45:29
			minister coffee used to say when
his son of a walker was young,
		
00:45:30 --> 00:45:31
			they tried to lift him
		
00:45:33 --> 00:45:36
			and someone were trying to lift
him. And he was two, three years
		
00:45:36 --> 00:45:37
			old, and they couldn't lift him.
		
00:45:38 --> 00:45:42
			But his spiritual rate was so
heavy at age two or three, that we
		
00:45:42 --> 00:45:43
			couldn't even physically lift him.
		
00:45:45 --> 00:45:48
			And the only way that we could
really bring that close if people
		
00:45:48 --> 00:45:53
			don't know how to understand this,
but Allah says, So lyrically, I
		
00:45:53 --> 00:45:58
			Laker colon therapy land, we're
going to cast upon you a heavy
		
00:45:58 --> 00:46:02
			word. And we know that when the
Prophet received revelation, who
		
00:46:02 --> 00:46:03
			was on a camel, the camel.
		
00:46:05 --> 00:46:08
			And yeah, there was times where
the prophet was on the lap of
		
00:46:08 --> 00:46:13
			senior broker Siddiq, and that it
was almost unbearable for him
		
00:46:14 --> 00:46:18
			to hold when he was receiving
revelation. So spiritual weight
		
00:46:18 --> 00:46:23
			is, is very, very real. So I
wasn't going to go into that much
		
00:46:23 --> 00:46:28
			detail, but inshallah Tada, we
will start the actual book
		
00:46:28 --> 00:46:32
			tomorrow, busy nights out there.
But it is good to know, the
		
00:46:32 --> 00:46:35
			author, whoever you're citing
from. And again, let's prepare our
		
00:46:35 --> 00:46:39
			hearts. And let's really benefit
from this beautiful data. That
		
00:46:39 --> 00:46:44
			when you turn your hearts into
these means, and you love and
		
00:46:44 --> 00:46:48
			respect and esteem these great
humans are
		
00:46:49 --> 00:46:54
			those mitad there's deep, that
very powerful spiritual sustenance
		
00:46:54 --> 00:46:58
			that comes to you from them. And
this word method, if people don't
		
00:46:58 --> 00:47:02
			know what that is, method is to
the Spirit what food is to the
		
00:47:02 --> 00:47:08
			body. And just as you eat food and
you get energy is that when you
		
00:47:08 --> 00:47:12
			receive money from the only you
get spiritual energy, and what
		
00:47:12 --> 00:47:16
			does energy enable you to do. It
enables you to do activities, all
		
00:47:16 --> 00:47:19
			different sorts, the more
spiritual energy that you have
		
00:47:19 --> 00:47:23
			enables you to do to all types of
different spiritual activities
		
00:47:23 --> 00:47:26
			where loss of penalty give us to a
week in Brussels and to benefit
		
00:47:26 --> 00:47:30
			from this work and to attach our
hearts to the affairs, the lofty
		
00:47:30 --> 00:47:33
			affairs in China to honor and then
return away from anything that is
		
00:47:33 --> 00:47:38
			nobody would love to honor bless
us. And that insha Allah to Allah,
		
00:47:38 --> 00:47:41
			bless us in this month of Ramadan
from the electoral expose
		
00:47:41 --> 00:47:45

this month, from what I mean. And
		
00:47:45 --> 00:47:48
			as the time to break up fast gets
new and then to add to it Forgive
		
00:47:48 --> 00:47:51
			all of our sins yet but I mean,
and all of the meanings of it and
		
00:47:51 --> 00:47:55
			not a lot to how to release us and
all of the meanings from the fall
		
00:47:55 --> 00:47:56
			yet
		
00:47:57 --> 00:47:59
			they know one that we know and no
one that we love are no less
		
00:47:59 --> 00:48:02
			connected to us ever, ever yelled
at the army. That entrance of hard
		
00:48:02 --> 00:48:05
			will come close to the farmer we
all have all of our past deeds
		
00:48:05 --> 00:48:09
			forgiven and all of our past bad
deeds changed into good deeds and
		
00:48:09 --> 00:48:12
			we will have long lives in the
beatings of Allah will send them
		
00:48:12 --> 00:48:15
