			Malala means that Allahu Sullenberger kind of you know Muhammad, Anwar earlier was to sell them to
Sleeman, kathira. To mama bad.
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:48
			Can an intention scrutinize the different actions that we do? Like could the intention make the
exact same act be virtuous or otherwise? You do one thing, can I make it virtuous? Or maybe
something else depends on how you intend that. So even though the image of the action itself is the
same, but the intention can make it actually virtuous or otherwise, let's see what the Prophet says
himself this hadith Hadith number eight from Riyadh, the Saudi Han the book of sincerely selfless
kala Juan Abu Musa, Allah Allah, Allah, Allah TerraNova Sudha Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, and gradually your call to shujaa where you call to hamriyah? Where you call to the RIA Are
		
00:00:48 --> 00:01:13
			you delicate feasable Allah for Carla Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam man Katara it Hakuna
carry Mottola Hale earlier for Hoover visa, Belinda Mustapha finale, and this hadith a man or group
of people, maybe somebody asked the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, ya rasool Allah, he was
asked about someone who fights in the battlefield, when he mentioned different scenarios. So someone
who fights in the battlefield,
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:38
			are valid, like somebody wants to do it because he's brave. And he says, or out of zeal, because he
wants to support his nationalistic, let's say theme or there's Dr. Paul, where you Kataria and an
hour of showing off a sign of hypocrisy, maybe just showing off to other people. He was asked which
one of these people could count be fighting for the sake of Allah?
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:54
			What do you guys think? The examples are clear some out of Valor, like someone who's wants to say
that he brave under the person who's doing it, you know, just for my family for my tribe, the other
person who just to show off for the people.
		
00:01:55 --> 00:02:00
			And he didn't ask which one of them is visible? What do you guys think? Could anyone count you to be
visible,
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:45
			but they all do the exact same thing. They all fight. They're on the battlefield, you're fighting
the enemy, and the other party may be causing casualties or be maybe get killed or even injured. So
the action is exactly the same. However, what's in the heart, made completely different and gave a
different values. So the prophets of Allah Azza wa sallam, he gave what you call Jabal hacking,
luck. He did not even select any of that stuff. He didn't say none of these things is available. He
didn't say he didn't say really. Are you serious? Talking about these to be visible? Nothing. He
says man Katara man Katara is Hakuna Kenema to law Hill earlier for who officer biller? He said he
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:55
			who fights in order the word of Allah azza wa jal remains the Supreme is considered as fighting in
the sake of Allah or for the sake of Allah. What does that mean? He adds a fourth category.
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:16
			So the person who was asked him, he mentioned three categories because they thought these three
categories probably would not invalidate the intention of doing it for the sake of Allah azza wa jal
like as if the person saying with doing it face a bit Allah, is it okay, if I do it out of bravery,
like I'm just brave.
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:57
			Is it okay if I do it because I want to just to support the cause of my tribe? My country? Is it
okay if I do it at the same time, I want to show off to my friends. So that's what they actually
they're trying to ask the question, but the professor says he didn't even answer that. He says,
Look, the one who's doing it today for the sake of Allah azza wa jal is the one who's doing it
exclusively for that cause. To make the word of Allah subhana wa the remainder supreme over
everything else. That is the one who's fighting for the sake of Allah subhanho wa taala. So as you
can see, it's the same action, but the intention definitely changed a lot. makes it good or makes it
		
00:03:57 --> 00:04:38
			bad. Now, what about someone is fighting for the sake of Allah subhana wa Tada. But he's brave.
Minister, is it okay for them to maybe on the front lines and always, you know, get out there and
try to go on to duel with other people from the enemy. And so, are they allowed to do that? Um, yes,
they're not doing it too, in order to be registered as being brave, but that's who they are. They're
genuinely from the inside do it for the sake of Allah subhana wa Tada. So there are lemma they say
this is okay. You can do that. Sometimes you might actually show some specific signs that might be
considered showing off, but depends on the intention, if you're not showing it off to your friends,
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:49
			is one thing is it showing off just to tease the enemy that's another thing. And this is an example
from the Sunnah from the seer of the Prophet Salah Salem, one of the Sahaba used to do that in the
battlefield. You guys know who that was?
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:53
			Not five volumes.
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:59
			About the journal the ultra northa abodo Journal
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:12
			He was known to have a bandana, a red bandana. So in the battlefield, he gets his bandana out, he
wraps it around his head, and he rides on his horse. And he starts actually trotting between the
lines.
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:49
			By going with his with squaring his shoulders, and he's going between the lines. The Prophet says,
I'm looking at the Janet in between the lines, and he said, in the huddle, a machete Budo, Allahu
Allah su 11 with the other moment, like that kind of, you know, move in that kind of position or
kind of walk, or actually trotting on the horse, says Allah and the messenger detest that, as if
it's considered a sign of pride or sign of arrogance, except in this in this time and this moment in
such a situation, because this is basically to hype up the people, and also showing the enemy that
we are brave, and we're not afraid of you.
		
00:05:50 --> 00:06:29
			So that is another category. But then adhamiya someone is doing it exclusively, just to advance the
cause of his tribe, or the cause of his national interest and so on. That is one of the most
problematic that's what the automat you mentioned in the Hadith, because this is coming from the
heart. Like this is something that doesn't really show you don't even know why the person is doing
this for right, because he doesn't tell he does represent everybody else probably. But if this
person dies, and his intention was just to advance the cause of his own people, nothing about dint
of ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada, then this person first is doomed.
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:37
			And this happened to time with the Prophets Allah Allah wa salam ala. When one day the people they
saw they were in the battlefield,
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:49
			they saw a man and they praise him in front of the prophets. Allah said, I'm sorry rasool Allah.
Matt kata had a min Nelio Muslimah Katella Fulani. He says no one did better than full on
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:52
			the promises himself. But he's in fire. He will be in the Hellfire
		
00:06:54 --> 00:07:15
			Club for Chaka Khan Sahaba, they will just come terrified. Whoa, why is that? Because he isn't
Johanna. So one of the Sahaba volunteer to chase after him to see what's the cause of this man. He
has been praised by everybody else being the one who provides the best, who said I started to go on
after him until he was injured.
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:53
			So when he was injured, badly injured, said I came and I approached him. And I wanted to give him
the good news about you know, you did you did well, and may Allah accept from you and so and so. And
the guy who said you think I did this for this? Cause? He goes no. And he mentioned that he was
doing it heavy. Yeah. It's because I'm, I'm gonna come up with my people. That's all I don't believe
in what you believe in. And I'm just doing it because this is my people's cause. So I'm supported no
matter what the cost is. And then he could not bear the the wounds and the pain. So he rushed
himself and he actually ended his own life. So the man come back to prophesy some color. So I shall
		
00:07:53 --> 00:08:07
			do Annika Rasulullah I will witness there is no God worthy of worship, but allah and You are the
messenger of Allah. And he goes, How come what's going on? Because the man who said about some so
and so that's what he did. And I verified that.
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:30
			So as you can see, somebody's just fighting bravely. But then his intention is nothing about Allah
subhanho wa taala. So this hadith once again, can be applied to many things. You could be praying
right now like everybody else, but some of us mashallah their intentions can take them to the
windowsill Allah. Some of us hamdulillah they're good.
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:41
			Other people, I don't know. Some people, they're neutral. I came to pray. And also I want to meet
brother before and after Saudi Arabia. There's nothing wrong with that. It's not haram
		
00:08:42 --> 00:09:09
			but then some people just came proudly Allahu Allah Mian people might be coming for other reasons
matters of dunya. So therefore, we need to make sure that whenever we come and you perform these
Riba, these are these activities, you do an exclusive for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala your
intention can maximize the reward or can completely nullify that a bad adata that you do May Allah
Subhana Allah keep us all sincere, for the sake of Allah Alameen wa Allah Allah and have questions.
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:13
			Sir
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:19
			solving fear that you didn't actually
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:24
			get
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:27
			out, if you have
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:30
			what every nation where we
		
00:09:31 --> 00:10:00
			are. So the question is, how do you reconcile with intention when you do something good, but then
people present present you with that? So now it's kind of like I'm conflicted with that. I did it
for the sake of Allah but now peoples are present present me for it. And now it's getting into my
head, right? Well, the Prophet says, I was asked the exact same question. Man came to the Prophet
Tada Rasul Allah, Roger Yama, Al Iman, Villa, Muhammad Yunus valley, in sometimes I do think for the
sake of Allah azza wa jal, but then I hear the first one
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:14
			The people so the prophets has called Tilka Eurovision moment, this is the good news from ALLAH
SubhanA wa Tada for this believer like good news that Allah subhanahu allow the people to praise
them. As long as this praise doesn't get into your head, you're good
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:23
			if it just goes into your ear and go to the other one you will handle you'll find but once it gets
into your head becomes problematic Allah
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:25
			yes
		
00:10:36 --> 00:11:00
			well, I'm not going to go right now into what defines basically a good cause or glad cause right now
because even Muslim countries, people join the armies right. And these nationalistic armies so
what's the purpose of them fighting fighting for a specific leader, supreme leader, or maybe supreme
agenda that they have besides the name of Allah subhanaw taala that's a different story. I'd rather
actually let them ask their Imams and Musharraf and their countries now
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:03
			defending yourself
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:10
			you're
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:12
			going to be
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:49
			what if someone defends themselves? I mean, I'm May Allah subhanaw taala have mercy on Imam Hassan
Sharif who passed in New Jersey or blood I mean, he was just starting the day with Fajr Salah in the
masjid and then he gets shot and he just kills Hama imagine look at that Allah Allah Subhan protect
you all somebody in a situation like this and someone comes at you Are you allowed to fight your to
fight against this individual to defend yourself? Now when you defend yourself what are you trying
to defend yourself for? To survive? Are you now doing it for the sake of Allah? Maybe not in that
moment? In your mind you're not thinking about doing this for the sake of Allah. I'm monitoring to
		
00:11:49 --> 00:12:12
			survive I want to defend myself against this this a sailor right now. So what they'll do in this
case, the Prophet says a measure different Hadith for this. He said man put a donor money for will
Shaheed Khalifa will shade if someone actually fight against to protect his wealth, his property,
you protect your family, you protect yourself for what shade that's also considered Shahana so
that's hamdulillah defending yourself should be fun. Shanell Tana Walla
