Our du'a of the Quran, du'a number 15

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

is from Surat Ashu'ara

00:00:04--> 00:00:06

Surat Ashu'ara chapter 26.

00:00:07--> 00:00:10

The ayat from verse 83

00:00:10--> 00:00:12

all the way down to 89.

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

So again, our Dua inshaAllah

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

is from Surat Ashuara

00:00:17--> 00:00:18

chapter 26

00:00:19--> 00:00:21

ayat verses 83 to 89.

00:00:22--> 00:00:24

If you look at the context of Surat

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

Asharah and this ayat, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

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

spoke about Ibrahim alaihis salam in details here.

00:00:31--> 00:00:33

What to alayhim Naba Ibrahim?

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

You Muhammad

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

tell them,

00:00:36--> 00:00:39

narrate to them, convey to them Naba Ibrahim

00:00:40--> 00:00:42

the news or the life of Ibrahim.

00:00:43--> 00:00:45

And Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala gave us details

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

about his debate

00:00:46--> 00:00:47

with his family.

00:00:48--> 00:00:50

When he was debating with them about worshiping

00:00:50--> 00:00:53

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, not worshiping the idols

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

and so on. And then Ibrahim alaihis salam,

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

he told him why he's worshiping Allah Azzawajal

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

because he's the one who provides for me.

00:01:02--> 00:01:03

And when I'm ill and sick he's giving

00:01:03--> 00:01:06

me he gives me healing. He spoke about

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

the beautiful

00:01:07--> 00:01:09

attributes of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala to which

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

he

00:01:10--> 00:01:11

deserved to be worshipped

00:01:12--> 00:01:13

and then at the end

00:01:14--> 00:01:15

he brought his dua.

00:01:16--> 00:01:19

So, he acknowledged Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, praised

00:01:19--> 00:01:21

Allah with his beautiful names and attributes,

00:01:22--> 00:01:23

and now he's asking

00:01:23--> 00:01:26

for his needs. What are the needs of

00:01:26--> 00:01:28

Ibrahim alaihi salam? Ibrahim alaihi salam,

00:01:29--> 00:01:31

come Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to ask

00:01:44--> 00:01:47

Bless me with honorable mention among the later

00:01:47--> 00:01:48

generations.

00:01:52--> 00:01:54

Make me one of those awarded the garden

00:01:54--> 00:01:55

of bliss.

00:02:00--> 00:02:02

Forgive my father for he is certainly one

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

of

00:02:03--> 00:02:04

the misguided

00:02:08--> 00:02:10

and do not disgrace me on the day

00:02:10--> 00:02:11

all will be resurrected.

00:02:16--> 00:02:18

A day when neither wealth nor children will

00:02:18--> 00:02:19

be of any benefit.

00:02:23--> 00:02:25

Only those who come before Allah

00:02:25--> 00:02:26

with a pure heart

00:02:27--> 00:02:28

will be saved.

00:02:28--> 00:02:29

So

00:02:30--> 00:02:32

what is the dua of Ibrahim alaihi salam?

00:02:32--> 00:02:34

Ibrahim alaihi salam says

00:02:36--> 00:02:38

and we've learned so far that whenever you

00:02:38--> 00:02:39

make dua,

00:02:39--> 00:02:41

you're now using the name Arab.

00:02:41--> 00:02:43

You name the attribute of Allah

00:02:44--> 00:02:46

Arab. Why? Because Arrab is associated with giving,

00:02:47--> 00:02:47

with creating,

00:02:48--> 00:02:49

with providing,

00:02:49--> 00:02:52

with helping and assisting. So, we say

00:02:54--> 00:02:55

and we say,

00:02:59--> 00:03:02

is coming from a complete grant from Allah

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

with no deserving

00:03:06--> 00:03:07

of it on your part.

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

Like you're telling

00:03:09--> 00:03:11

You Rabbi, even though I know I don't

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

deserve

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

it, but I ask you to give me

00:03:13--> 00:03:14

this,

00:03:14--> 00:03:15

grant me this.

00:03:18--> 00:03:18

Give me.

00:03:19--> 00:03:21

Now could be ruled or could be actually

00:03:21--> 00:03:23

interpreted as rule

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

and what it means means when you give

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

judgment,

00:03:26--> 00:03:27

when you make decisions,

00:03:28--> 00:03:29

and

00:03:29--> 00:03:31

what's so important about making decisions in this

00:03:31--> 00:03:33

life of Jema? What do you guys think?

00:03:34--> 00:03:36

What is so important about making decisions over

00:03:36--> 00:03:36

here?

00:03:38--> 00:03:40

Everything is about making your life is all

00:03:40--> 00:03:42

about making micro decisions.

00:03:43--> 00:03:46

Everything you do is making micro decisions, the

00:03:46--> 00:03:47

choice of words,

00:03:47--> 00:03:50

where you spend your time, when do you

00:03:50--> 00:03:51

leave, when do you stay, what do you

00:03:51--> 00:03:54

do, All these things are based on making

00:03:54--> 00:03:55

these micro decisions.

00:03:55--> 00:03:57

So, when you ask Allah, You Rabbi,

00:03:58--> 00:04:01

give me the wisdom in making my decisions

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

in this life because those decisions

00:04:03--> 00:04:06

that you make frequently, they become what?

00:04:07--> 00:04:08

Become you, your character.

00:04:09--> 00:04:11

What is character? What is your character anyway?

00:04:11--> 00:04:13

Your character is nothing but repetitive

00:04:14--> 00:04:15

of certain behavior.

00:04:15--> 00:04:17

And that behavior that you do is based

00:04:17--> 00:04:19

on what? The decisions that you make.

00:04:20--> 00:04:22

Major and minor ones. So, it's all about

00:04:22--> 00:04:24

how to make good decisions.

00:04:25--> 00:04:27

So, when Ibrahim alaihi salam asked Allah subhanahu

00:04:27--> 00:04:29

wa ta'ala for that he was asking Allah

00:04:29--> 00:04:31

to make good decisions in everything

00:04:32--> 00:04:33

because these decisions,

00:04:33--> 00:04:35

hopefully when you make them right they'll match

00:04:35--> 00:04:37

the hikma and the wisdom of Allah Subhanahu

00:04:37--> 00:04:38

Wa Ta'ala in a way that's most pleasing

00:04:38--> 00:04:39

to Allah Azzawajal.

00:04:41--> 00:04:43

Similarly, when Allah praised Yusuf alayhi salam,

00:04:47--> 00:04:48

when he reached that age,

00:04:48--> 00:04:50

we gave him wisdom, we gave him the

00:04:50--> 00:04:53

ability to make good decisions and knowledge based,

00:04:53--> 00:04:54

of course, on pure knowledge.

00:04:54--> 00:04:55

So, here Ibrahim

00:04:56--> 00:04:58

has asked Allah to give him, grant him

00:04:58--> 00:04:59

the ability to make these

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

these wise decisions.

00:05:02--> 00:05:05

So, hukman, wal hiknibus salihin and you Allah

00:05:06--> 00:05:08

join me with the righteous ones. The righteous

00:05:08--> 00:05:10

ones are those who reach that level because

00:05:10--> 00:05:11

of

00:05:13--> 00:05:14

making the right decisions,

00:05:14--> 00:05:16

making the right choices.

00:05:17--> 00:05:18

Like, I hope by choosing wisely

00:05:19--> 00:05:22

and making the right choices in my life,

00:05:22--> 00:05:24

making wise decisions in my life, I'll be

00:05:24--> 00:05:27

joined among those of salihein because they haven't

00:05:27--> 00:05:30

become salihein unless they have made those good

00:05:30--> 00:05:31

choices, good decisions.

00:05:34--> 00:05:35

And, You Allah

00:05:35--> 00:05:38

bless me with honorable mention among the later

00:05:38--> 00:05:38

generation.

00:05:40--> 00:05:40

You Allah

00:05:41--> 00:05:43

make me or make for me.

00:05:44--> 00:05:45

What's

00:05:46--> 00:05:47

Tongue.

00:05:47--> 00:05:49

But it's also used in the Arabic language

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

as what?

00:05:50--> 00:05:53

People move their tongues with good mention about

00:05:53--> 00:05:54

you. That's what it means. When people move

00:05:54--> 00:05:56

their tongues, when people speak about you, that's

00:05:56--> 00:05:58

what it means. So, it means your speech.

00:05:58--> 00:06:01

So, make the people when they speak about

00:06:01--> 00:06:04

me, lisan alsudk, when they speak, they speak

00:06:04--> 00:06:05

honorable things about me.

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

Basically, when they remember me after long I'm

00:06:08--> 00:06:09

gone from this life,

00:06:10--> 00:06:12

You Allah, they will remember me very well.

00:06:14--> 00:06:17

That I will be among those who have

00:06:17--> 00:06:18

told the truth

00:06:18--> 00:06:20

and remain true

00:06:20--> 00:06:21

among the later generation.

00:06:22--> 00:06:23

Now,

00:06:23--> 00:06:26

for so far, Ajamal, did Allah Subhanahu Wa

00:06:26--> 00:06:27

Ta'ala

00:06:27--> 00:06:30

accept those two things from Ibrahim Alaihi Salam?

00:06:31--> 00:06:31

Number 1,

00:06:32--> 00:06:34

he was of course from Salihin Alambia and

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

he's not just from Salihin, he became what?

00:06:37--> 00:06:38

Khalilullah,

00:06:39--> 00:06:40

the most beloved.

00:06:41--> 00:06:42

So, Allah for

00:06:43--> 00:06:44

those qualities

00:06:44--> 00:06:46

he made one of the favorite,

00:06:48--> 00:06:48

The second

00:06:49--> 00:06:52

thing, his honorable mention in the later generations,

00:06:52--> 00:06:53

what do you guys think about that?

00:06:54--> 00:06:55

Is it? How so?

00:06:57--> 00:06:59

You can't pray without mentioning his name.

00:07:04--> 00:07:06

All your life, we're the Ummah, the only

00:07:06--> 00:07:08

Ummah of the 3, you know,

00:07:09--> 00:07:11

monotheistic faiths that you can imagine

00:07:11--> 00:07:13

that mentions Ibrahim

00:07:13--> 00:07:14

so frequently

00:07:15--> 00:07:17

as much as you mentioned Muhammad

00:07:17--> 00:07:18

So,

00:07:19--> 00:07:22

Allah made that beautiful honorable mention of him.

00:07:22--> 00:07:24

Not just that, when we go to Hajj,

00:07:25--> 00:07:28

who you exactly commemorating when it comes to

00:07:28--> 00:07:30

the practice of Hajj? Ibrahim alayhi salaam.

00:07:31--> 00:07:33

So it's always about that whether it's our

00:07:33--> 00:07:35

practice of the deen and Ibad and also

00:07:35--> 00:07:37

our mention of salawat upon the prophet sallallahu

00:07:37--> 00:07:40

alayhi wasalam and enjoining also Muhammad Ibrahim alayhi

00:07:40--> 00:07:40

wasalam.

00:07:41--> 00:07:42

So Allah answered

00:07:42--> 00:07:43

this call for

00:07:44--> 00:07:44

these

00:07:45--> 00:07:46

two

00:07:46--> 00:07:47

things.

00:07:47--> 00:07:49

So that one, the one before

00:07:49--> 00:07:52

about leaving an honorable mention for him among

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

the generation, the later generation, that's in his

00:07:55--> 00:07:57

dunya after he's gone from it.

00:07:57--> 00:07:59

But the second right now he's asking

00:08:02--> 00:08:04

You Allah, make me among those who are

00:08:04--> 00:08:06

awarded the Garden of Bliss. When is that

00:08:06--> 00:08:07

gonna be a jama'ah?

00:08:07--> 00:08:08

In the akhir.

00:08:09--> 00:08:11

So he said something about the dunya. You

00:08:11--> 00:08:13

Allah, in my lifetime,

00:08:13--> 00:08:15

make me make good choices, make me good

00:08:15--> 00:08:17

decisions, so I can become among the righteous

00:08:17--> 00:08:18

one.

00:08:19--> 00:08:21

And, you Allah, when I'm done from this

00:08:21--> 00:08:21

world,

00:08:22--> 00:08:23

I ask you to leave an honorable mention

00:08:23--> 00:08:25

of me after I'm gone from this dunya,

00:08:26--> 00:08:28

so after his death. Anya Allah, on the

00:08:28--> 00:08:28

day of judgment,

00:08:29--> 00:08:30

I ask you to award

00:08:32--> 00:08:34

me Look at the beautiful dua.

00:08:34--> 00:08:37

He's asking for his present time, he's asking

00:08:37--> 00:08:39

after he's gone from this world, and he's

00:08:39--> 00:08:42

asking also after the resurrection happens.

00:08:42--> 00:08:44

So, he's leaving nothing.

00:08:45--> 00:08:47

He wants the good in his lifetime

00:08:48--> 00:08:50

after he's done before the day of judgment,

00:08:50--> 00:08:52

and on the day of judgment he's asking

00:08:52--> 00:08:53

for the best.

00:08:53--> 00:08:54

Then he says,

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

You Allah, forgive my father for he is

00:09:03--> 00:09:04

certainly one of the misguided.

00:09:06--> 00:09:07

Who was his father, Ajamal?

00:09:07--> 00:09:10

What was his name? Was it? Azaar. It

00:09:10--> 00:09:11

was mentioned in the Quran. Azaar.

00:09:14--> 00:09:15

Are you taking

00:09:15--> 00:09:16

Islam

00:09:16--> 00:09:18

statues as gods? So Ibrahim was speaking to

00:09:18--> 00:09:19

his father, Azza.

00:09:20--> 00:09:22

And, unfortunately, his father, Azza, did not believe

00:09:22--> 00:09:24

in the message of his son, Ibrahim.

00:09:24--> 00:09:26

His father was an honorable man in his

00:09:26--> 00:09:28

society, and he didn't wanna leave, you know,

00:09:28--> 00:09:30

the culture and tradition of his people for

00:09:30--> 00:09:31

a young kid.

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

Like in our in our society sometimes, unfortunately,

00:09:34--> 00:09:36

we hold on to all traditions

00:09:36--> 00:09:39

that we think anything comes from the younger

00:09:39--> 00:09:41

generation is false. You can't really actually accept

00:09:41--> 00:09:42

that.

00:09:42--> 00:09:44

So, his father was a very staunch

00:09:45--> 00:09:47

supporter of his tradition and culture that he

00:09:47--> 00:09:49

told his son, finally, he told him, he

00:09:49--> 00:09:51

said, look, if you're not gonna leave, I'm

00:09:51--> 00:09:52

gonna stone you.

00:09:52--> 00:09:53

Leave.

00:09:54--> 00:09:56

That's even after they saw the miracle,

00:09:56--> 00:09:58

the miracle of him coming out of the

00:09:58--> 00:10:00

fire would not scratch.

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

Still he told him, get out of here.

00:10:02--> 00:10:03

I don't want to see your face again.

00:10:04--> 00:10:05

Ibrahim alaihis salam, he still

00:10:06--> 00:10:08

he still asked forgiveness for his father.

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

For how long though?

00:10:11--> 00:10:13

Long enough until Allah subhanahu wa'ala, this is

00:10:13--> 00:10:14

it, you can't make dua for him anymore.

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

Because some people might say, wait a minute,

00:10:17--> 00:10:18

is he asking du'a for his father who

00:10:18--> 00:10:20

knows that he is actually not a believer?

00:10:21--> 00:10:23

Well, Allah mentioned that in the Quran

00:10:26--> 00:10:26

That Allah

00:10:27--> 00:10:29

promised Ibrahim that he will grant him that

00:10:29--> 00:10:31

wish to make dua for his father.

00:10:31--> 00:10:33

However, was that dua answer?

00:10:34--> 00:10:35

Well, in matters of Dunia we know it

00:10:35--> 00:10:36

wasn't

00:10:36--> 00:10:38

because his father died as an unbeliever and

00:10:38--> 00:10:40

Allah subhanash and so in the Quran as

00:10:40--> 00:10:40

well too.

00:10:41--> 00:10:42

So, he says,

00:10:43--> 00:10:45

forgive my father, he was among those who

00:10:45--> 00:10:46

are misguided.

00:10:47--> 00:10:48

And, then he says,

00:10:51--> 00:10:53

and you Allah do not disgrace me on

00:10:53--> 00:10:54

the day

00:10:54--> 00:10:55

all will be resurrected.

00:10:56--> 00:10:57

Who is saying this, Ajima?

00:10:58--> 00:11:00

Ibrahim alaihis salam.

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

I mean, what is there for him to

00:11:02--> 00:11:03

be disgraced about?

00:11:04--> 00:11:06

For all the service that he provided for

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

the din of Allah azza wa jal, for

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

the sacrifice he has done, for the journeys

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

he had to undertake,

00:11:12--> 00:11:14

for the almost of being the most obedient

00:11:14--> 00:11:16

to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:11:16--> 00:11:18

What is it that he's gonna be disgraced

00:11:18--> 00:11:20

about? So, some of the ulama they say

00:11:20--> 00:11:22

maybe he's referring to the three lies

00:11:22--> 00:11:25

that they were mentioned, hadith al Shafa'at Tawil.

00:11:25--> 00:11:26

The long hide of Shafa'at

00:11:26--> 00:11:28

when Ibrahim alaihis salam when the people come

00:11:28--> 00:11:30

to Ibrahim, Yeah, Ibrahim, can you ask Allah

00:11:30--> 00:11:32

to start the day of judgment on the

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

account?

00:11:32--> 00:11:33

He goes,

00:11:33--> 00:11:35

get out of my face. I don't want

00:11:35--> 00:11:36

to see you.

00:11:36--> 00:11:39

I have myself to worry about because

00:11:39--> 00:11:40

I've done three lies.

00:11:41--> 00:11:43

Although we don't cause them to be lies,

00:11:43--> 00:11:45

but he was worried about them and he's

00:11:45--> 00:11:47

asked Allah not to disgrace him among the

00:11:47--> 00:11:49

nations, among the people because of these three

00:11:49--> 00:11:50

lies.

00:11:51--> 00:11:53

Ask yourself how many lies did you make

00:11:53--> 00:11:54

as a man your lifetime?

00:11:55--> 00:11:57

How many things you've done that you would

00:11:57--> 00:12:00

consider maybe a source of probably humiliation, Allah

00:12:00--> 00:12:02

will stand on the day of judgment. May

00:12:02--> 00:12:03

Allah protect us from the Surah Al Amin.

00:12:04--> 00:12:06

But, here's Ibrahim Alaihi Wasallam with his humbleness,

00:12:06--> 00:12:07

he's asking Allah to protect him on that

00:12:07--> 00:12:08

day.

00:12:08--> 00:12:10

Another thing that could be is because of

00:12:10--> 00:12:11

his father,

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

because of his father

00:12:14--> 00:12:15

to be in Jahannam and that would be

00:12:15--> 00:12:18

a source of you know, kind of like

00:12:18--> 00:12:20

an insult or an engineer for Ibrahim

00:12:21--> 00:12:23

as if he's asking, You Allah, and don't

00:12:23--> 00:12:25

cause my father to go to Jahannam, that

00:12:25--> 00:12:26

would be an insult to me,

00:12:27--> 00:12:29

which means forgive him.

00:12:29--> 00:12:31

But that was, of course, still during his

00:12:31--> 00:12:33

lifetime, alaihis salatu wa salam, when his father

00:12:33--> 00:12:34

was still alive.

00:12:35--> 00:12:36

After he's gone he did not accept the

00:12:36--> 00:12:38

message, it's over for him.

00:12:38--> 00:12:39

And that's what Allah says,

00:12:41--> 00:12:42

On the day of resurrection,

00:12:42--> 00:12:44

I ask you that I would never be

00:12:44--> 00:12:44

humiliated

00:12:45--> 00:12:47

or or suffer any insult.

00:12:48--> 00:12:50

And he now emphasizing on that day,

00:12:53--> 00:12:55

When he says, when neither wealth nor children

00:12:55--> 00:12:58

will be of any benefit. Perhaps, refer that

00:12:58--> 00:13:00

to his father as well too saying that

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

look, I know that I can't help benefit

00:13:03--> 00:13:04

him, You Allah.

00:13:04--> 00:13:06

His wealth is not gonna benefit him. So,

00:13:06--> 00:13:08

You Rabbi, don't disgrace me because of that.

00:13:09--> 00:13:11

Or, generally speaking, and it's very well known

00:13:11--> 00:13:12

the Day of Judgement,

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

no one's money, no one's lineage, no one's

00:13:16--> 00:13:17

size of their tribe or their family,

00:13:18--> 00:13:20

no one's culture, no one's degree is gonna

00:13:20--> 00:13:21

benefit them before Allah

00:13:22--> 00:13:23

except for what?

00:13:26--> 00:13:29

Unless you bring to Allah Subhanahu, you come

00:13:29--> 00:13:30

to Allah before Allah

00:13:31--> 00:13:34

with that pure heart. That's the only thing

00:13:34--> 00:13:35

that's gonna save you.

00:13:36--> 00:13:38

And that's the thing that he's actually

00:13:38--> 00:13:40

asked Allah for. Even Ibrahim

00:13:40--> 00:13:42

with all we know about him, he's still

00:13:42--> 00:13:44

asking Allah for

00:13:44--> 00:13:45

this.

00:13:45--> 00:13:46

So,

00:13:46--> 00:13:48

if Ibrahim is asking for this, make sure

00:13:48--> 00:13:50

that you make this du'a more frequently as

00:13:50--> 00:13:52

Imam. So, as we make the du'a, InshaAllahu

00:13:52--> 00:13:53

Ta'ala,

00:13:53--> 00:13:55

for the phrase when he asked for his

00:13:55--> 00:13:56

father's forgiveness,

00:13:56--> 00:13:57

we're not gonna say,

00:13:59--> 00:14:01

Don't say this about your father.

00:14:01--> 00:14:03

So, what we say, we're gonna

00:14:08--> 00:14:09

say to replace

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

saying

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

so at least

00:14:13--> 00:14:16

we have that. Now, can I say Of

00:14:16--> 00:14:18

course? Forgive my mother? Yes, you can. Can

00:14:18--> 00:14:19

I say

00:14:20--> 00:14:22

Forgive my parents and make them among the

00:14:22--> 00:14:24

guided ones? Yes, of course you can. So,

00:14:24--> 00:14:26

in whichever way you wanna make the dua,

00:14:26--> 00:14:28

that is up to you, but we cannot

00:14:28--> 00:14:29

use the words of the Quran as close

00:14:29--> 00:14:31

the dua together, InshaAllah.

00:14:29--> 00:14:31

the dua together, InshaAllah.
